YORK and WASHINGTON -- From Flanders, Jan Lauwers, director of needcompany,
"The German intendant
of the Venice Film Festival said he wanted the festival to get away
from its intellectual artistic image. In her speech at the opening
of the Theatre Festival, Amsterdam's alderwoman for culture said
that the distinction between professional and amateur theatre should
be abandoned. In the proposal for the renewal of the arts act in
Flanders, a great deal of importance is attached to public participation
in the artist's creative process. All this is to save democracy.
Let's just substitute the phrase open-heart surgery for the word
art. And let's all participate in an operation and tell the surgeon
how to make his cuts. Bet you the patient dies.
"Apart from that, everything's
fine at Needcompany. We are deriving great pleasure from working
on Grace Ellen Barkey's new piece, '(AND).' 'Goldfish Game' won
the Kinematrix Prize at Venice and will be making a passing appearance
at the Film Festival in Ghent. We shall soon be opening up our hearts
in a new Needlab at STUK in Leuven. We shall be pleased to demonstrate
there, multi-disciplinary omnivores as we are, that we question
just about everything and thereby preserve democracy from its downfall.
And we would like to see you participating!
"Kind regards,
Jan Lauwers
"P.S. We have decided
not to do any more art for everyone, only for you!"
"And" premieres in Amsterdam
October 26, and receives its U.S. premiere November 20 at The Kitchen.
"Goldfish Game" is the newish movie from needcompany. And we'll
have more on the Needlab later.
....Speaking of participatory
democracy, Gabri Christa of DanzAisa would like to invite you --
yes YOU, New York dance insider -- to the Not in Our Name rally
this Sunday in Central Park, from 1 to 5 p.m. Writes Gabri: "At
3 p.m. we will assemble in a circle to form a gigantic image of
the world. Then, as one, we will take the Not in Our Name Pledge
of Resistance. October 6 is the day before U.S. bombs started falling
on Afghanistan one year ago. Not in Our Name -- War on the World
-- No War on Iraq! Not in Our Name -- Detentions and Roundups of
Muslim, Arab and South Asian Immigrants. Not in Our Name -- Detentions
and Roundups of Muslim, Arab and South Asian Immigrants. Not in
Our Name -- Police State Restrictions. Artists are needed for every
aspect of this event. Call 212-969-8058. Rally is at East Meadow,
Central Park. Enter at Fifth Avenue and 96th Street." For more details,
Gabri adds, please go to this web site.
Do I or does The Dance
Insider necessarily endorse this event ? No. I'm sharing the announcement
because it comes from a dancer, and giving a voice to dancers is
part of The Dance Insider's mission. If you have a like or contrary
opinion, please send it to firstname.lastname@example.com and, as long as
it's legible and coherent, we'll print it. Be nice.
There is at least one
new "anti-terror" law which will have a direct impact on dance artists,
presenters, and audiences in the US: Starting this week, all visitors
to the US from most Arab countries and Pakistan will be photographed,
finger-printed, and interrogated on entering the U.S. Think this
will deter artists from these countries from touring to the U.S.?
Dance insider, it's already happening. Think this reduced exposure
to the POSITIVE fruits of these cultures will increase the potency
of negative stereotypes of Arabs -- including U.S. citizens? Right
again. :(
....Speaking of the news from Washington, D.C., not all of it is
bad: Dance insider Kim Chan, erstwhile director of programming at
the Washington Performing Arts Society, has left that leading D.C.
presenter to become vice president of Arts Presenters. Kim will
be responsible for directing the development, management and implementation
of all programs, including education, grant-making, publications,
conference and government affairs activities. She'll also work with
the organization's president, Sandra Gibson, to, she says, "identify
and shape Arts Presenters' response to current issues, needs, and
practices in the environment for the performing arts and presenting
fields nationally." Bon chance, Bon courage, and, of course, merde,
....Speaking of presenters, how do you, dance company director insider,
expect them to find you if you're not listed on the Dance Insider
Online Directory?! It's cheap, it's large, and it's the only way
to make sure dance presenters, dance students, dance media, and
foundations know where to find you. Next updates go online October
15. Extended deadline for new submissions is FRIDAY. To be added
to the list, e-mail me for details at firstname.lastname@example.com. To see the DIOD,
please click here.
.... Et en fin, if you're reading this in NYC and would like to
see what will, at the least, be some light-infused dancing, catch
Eun Jung Gonzalez and Catey Ott tomorrow and Saturday at WAX, in
"Luminate." I have no idea what the choreography is like, but dance
insiders in the Apple have long admired the spirited dancing of
Mlles Ott and Gonzalez with the companies of Sean Curran, Heidi
Latsky and others. Curtain rises at 8 p.m. both nights; more info
at 718-599-7997. Go 'dere!
PEACE out!

Javi Marroquin and Kail Lowry welcomed their first child together, Lincoln Marroquin, in Nov. 2013, and while they have their hands full with the new baby, and with Kail's son from a previous relationship, Isaac, Javi is ready to add to their brood.
"I want to have a girl so they can wear the Kardashian Kids collection tho!" Javi tweeted to fans over the weekend, according to a March 17 report by Wetpaint Entertainment.
Since Kail and Javi have two little boys already, it's understandable that Javi, and Kail, would like to have a girl at some point. However, Kail isn't quite ready to start trying for more babies yet.
In response to Javi's request, Kail wrote, "Can ya give me a min? Linc's not 4 months yet!"
While Kail has spoken before of having more children, she has a few things left to do -- the most important of which is get her college degree.
Earlier this month, the "Teen Mom 2" star revealed that she plans to go back to college this August in hopes of completing her bachelor degree, which she began working on years ago before dropping out and choosing to instead gain certifications in the dental industry.

For the livestock component of the project, 136 young farmers will receive 136 female calves. Another group of young club members will receive 800 fruit tree seedlings, as well as training in farming skills. Moreover, the children will participate in several exchange visits between youth clubs, which will give children the chance to share knowledge and experience, and participate in team activities. In time, the exchange visits will evolve into active networking events, annual YAN forums, and joint projects among the six communities. In this way, the youth clubs will enhance the children's participatory roles in their communities, give them the skills to propose innovative solutions to local problems, and help them to become active citizens of a newly democratic country.

Reviews for Honey-Wheat Oatmeal Bread
"First, I make bread 1 to 2 times a week and enjoy trying new recipes for variation. Dough was very sticky, added 3/4 cup more flour, did not rise well, too sweet for our taste, will not make again."
"This baked up great! I only had all-purpose flour instead of bread, but it worked fine. I might cut down on the honey next time as it was a little too sweet. But SO so good! kids loved it!"
"This is a family favorite! We like a little more wheat flour, so I just change the proportions."
"This bread is delicious. I made it as written in my breadmaker. I wish it was a tad less dense and a bit softer."
"I frequently add flax to this recipe. My husband raises flax and has raised canola. We also have bee hives on our property from local beekeepers. Thanks for the comments."

Tottenham Hotspur fans here at the Football Transfer Tavern were more than a little concerned when they found out about Jermain Defoe's injury and now the Daily Mail claim the club may be looking at bringing in another striker.
There was of course the will he, won't he saga with Emmanuel Adebayor and the African Cup of Nations and the forward eventually left, leaving Spurs feeling slightly depleted up top. Add to this the concerns over Defoe's fitness and the club are looking at Alvaro Negredo.
The Spanish international is currently plying his trade in Spain for Sevilla and has been on the radar of several Premier League clubs in the last couple of seasons. The player has earned 12 caps for the Spanish national side and would be available for around £15 million. Of course at the age of 27 it means that a move to the Premier League is becoming a bit of a now or never situation for the player and may be persuaded to embark on his first transfer outside of his native Spain.
Andre Villas-Boas' side have just signed Lewis Holtby from Schalke and have also been linked with Celtic's Gary Hooper in a recent report by Metro.
negredo would i think give spurs that finnishing touch that is wanted up front and would also give us that final push for champs league.

It all begins in tragedy as a massive fire destroys the Kadam family restaurant and home in Mumbai, India also taking the life of their mother. The Kadams move to Europe to begin a new life. Their quest takes them ultimately and unexpectedly to beautiful small town in rural France. There they come upon an old building in desperate need of repair but ideally suited so believes father Kadam to the establishment of a new restaurant serving their native Indian cuisine. The only obvious glitch is that is located directly across from an obviously very upscale French restaurant a mere 100 feet across the road.
It doesn't take long for sparks to fly between the rather stuffy and devoted "old school" proprietress of the French restaurant Madame Mallory and the Kadam family. However over time the combativeness dissolves particularly as Madame Mallory begins to see Hassan Kadam as a true genius chef artfully combining traditional French cuisine with elements from India.
Eventually Hassan is drawn to Paris where he becomes an international sensation. However, he ultimately leaves the glitz of Paris for his family and sweetheart and a more pedestrian but happy life back in the village.
Overall this is an entertaining film but it is in many ways predictable and far too long, over two hours. Moreover it perpetuates the myth among many that French cuisine is the ultimate standard of the world with a few spices from India perhaps bringing a little something to the table but always solely in the French way. This is therefore yet another example of the long standing stereotypical French gastronomical arrogance. Oh well, oui oui!
There are however many examples of love and redemption and displays of strong spirit; all good things in my world. It also is rich in magnificent cinematography all of which makes "The Hundred Foot Journey" a very watchable and mostly enjoyable film.

The time someone was last seen or known to be well will help to determine what type of treatment the patient may receive. It is very important to call 911 as soon as these symptoms are recognized.
The symptoms of stroke depend on what part of the brain is damaged. In some cases, a person may not even be aware that he or she has had a stroke.
Not all warning signs will occur with every stroke. Many times people will state they had a really bad headache prior to symptoms or say they "just don't feel right."
Don't ignore symptoms if they go away. You should still seek medical help.
Time is critical when you or someone you know is having a Stroke. Call 911 if you think you're having a stroke.

Senior Trent Whitehead was 3-for-4 with an RBI and two runs scored
May 15, 2011
GREENVILLE, N.C. - Chase McDonald blasted his third home run of the season and drove in a career-best five RBI as East Carolina (34-17) completed a three-game non-conference sweep of Delaware State (24-27) 6-1 Sunday afternoon at Lewis Field inside Clark-LeClair Stadium.
The freshman designated hitter took a first pitch offering from Zach Adkins over the left field wall giving the Pirates an early 3-0 lead in the bottom of the first inning. Corey Thompson drew a one-out walk and Trent Whitehead recorded the first of three hits on the day to left field setting up McDonald's round tripper.
Kevin Brandt picked up his sixth win of the season working five scoreless frames where he allowed just two hits with one walk and four strikeouts facing one over the minimum. Joseph Hughes made his 14th appearance of the year in relief tossing a scoreless sixth with a strikeout before true freshman Drew Reynolds took the hill for the second time this season. Reynolds allowed one run on three hits in one-third of a frame. Shawn Armstrong (1.2 IP, 3 Ks), Mike Anderson (0.1 IP, K) and Lance Honeycutt (0.2 IP, 2 Ks) closed out the final two frames.
Adkins suffered his first loss of the season allowing three runs (all earned) on three hits with a walk in two innings. The Hornets would use six more pitchers each tossing one inning to close out the game.
The Pirates added to their lead with a run in the third pushing the score to 4-0. Thompson reached on the second of his three walks in the game, took third on Whitehead's single to right center and scored on McDonald's ground out to short.
Two more runs in the fifth extended ECU's lead to 6-0. Mike Ussery started the inning by reaching after getting hit by a pitch and moved into scoring position on Philip Clark's sac bunt. With two outs, Whitehead capped his three-hit day with a RBI double that hit off first baseman Ryan Haas' glove and vaulted into center field scoring Ussery. After Whitehead stole third, he came around to score on McDonald's single to left to cap ECU's scoring on the afternoon.
Delaware State used three hits and a walk in the seventh to cut ECU's lead to five, 6-1. D.J. Miller singled through the right side, which was followed base hits from Cameron Cecil and Aaron Nardone loading the bases for Pete Broehl, who walked scoring Miller.
On the afternoon the Pirates recorded eight hits and pushed their weekly total to 65. The offense scored 46 runs and batted .411, while the pitching staff posted a 0.50 ERA allowing just two runs on 24 hits in 36.0 innings with 36 strikeouts.
The Pirates will be back in action on Tuesday, May 17 in the home finale against former Colonial Athletic Association foe Old Dominion with a 6 p.m. (EDT) first pitch scheduled.

Things are very, very complicated on "The Vampire Diaries," and because of what's going on, some people are keeping secrets, as you can see in the sneak peek the CW released on Monday, April 14, from this week's episode 518, "Resident Evil."
As we saw at the end of the last episode, the Travelers performed a spell (that doppelganger blood, so powerful) that put Bonnie (Kat Graham) through a lot of pain as a bunch of them passed through her, but that wasn't all. We've seen that happen before, but this time, there was something new, as Markos (Raffi Barsoumian) emerged from her. So far we've only gotten that brief glimpse of the Travelers' leader, but don't worry, more is coming.
In this next "TVD" episode, which also marks series star Paul Wesley's directorial debut, Grams (Jasmine Guy) tells Bonnie during a disturbing encounter that there are frightening changes on the Other Side. That's not all that's going on with Bonnie; she also finds out that Jeremy (Steven R. McQueen) is working with Liv (Penelope Mitchell) behind her back, leaving her hurt and angry. Liv has enlisted Jeremy, Matt (Zach Roerig) and Tyler (Michael Trevino) to help track the Travelers and keep them from taking control of Mystic Falls. As for Markos, when Damon (Ian Somerhalder) finds him, he's relieve and disturbed by what the Travelers' leader tells him.
In the "Resident Evil" sneak peek, Bonnie turns to Jeremy for help, explaining there could be trouble on the Other Side. Grams told her the witches are worried someone got out, and Bonnie's hoping that since Jeremy can see ghosts, he can help. However, Jeremy's busy with Liv, and while Bonnie doesn't buy the math tutor lie, he "can't" tell her what's going on. Instead, he just tells her to trust him and shows her the door.
"The Vampire Diaries" season 5 airs Thursdays at 8 p.m. on the CW. What do you think of this episode 18 "Resident Evil" clip?

Independent: City to battle Barcelona for Villarreal defender
- 20 December 2013 09:57
- Posted by @porter_mcfc
Tis the season of transfer speculation…
Add a new name to your list of City links this morning, because Villarreal defender Mateo Musacchio is the latest player who could be booking his flight to Manchester – at least, if a report in the Independent is to be believed.
The centre-back is hot property this winter, and City are reportedly going up against Barcelona and Chelsea to secure his signature.
Writes Charles Reynolds: "The centre-back has had a great start to the La Liga season, playing every minute of Villarreal's games, and he has reportedly started to attract the interest of bigger clubs.
"Villarreal have had five clean sheets already this season and are sitting in a slightly surprising fifth place in the table, thanks in part to the defensive efforts of Musacchio."
Remember, as ever, nothing is confirmed until you read it right here on mcfc.co.uk!
Meanwhile, City's last match before Christmas takes place at Craven Cottage tomorrow, and John Arne Riise is keen to point out Fulham won't be handing out any early gifts.
The former Liverpool man has his eye on all three points when the Blues come to town, before the Cottagers face a run of three crucial games against teams lower down the table.
Riise is quoted on Goal.com as saying: "It's not a game people will expect us to win but we're prepared to go out to try and get the victory.
"We want to go off the pitch on Saturday having given our all.
"City isn't an easy game and the three games after that [against Norwich City, Hull City and West Ham] are probably bigger for us as they're against teams around us in the table.
"Those three games are massive but we'll certainly be aiming to cause an upset against City."
Fighting talk! Tomorrow's game isn't on TV in the UK, but never fear – you can follow the action with our Match Day centre, or check out the twitter updates.
Finally, imagine a world where Alvaro Negredo turns out in the orange shirt of Hull. Struggling? Well, Phil Brown reckons it was a real possibility a few years ago.
The Daily Express claims that Brown, who is now manager of Southend United, tried to land the striker when he left Real Madrid in 2007.
John Dillon reports: "A 6ft 1in slab of uncompromising muscle with a deft touch, Negredo could fire City to the top of the table tomorrow courtesy of their huge goal difference, if Liverpool fail to beat Cardiff.
"'It would have been a massive coup if we had got him,' recalls Brown, now managing Southend United. "'was going nowhere at the time and we were trying to uncover little gems. The chairman, Paul Duffen, went to the Bernabeu and we had a deal set up.
"'You look at Negredo now and he is on fire. When you look at forwards like that, you are looking for technical ability. But the bottom line is they have to be able to put up with the rigours of the Premier League. Negredo is made for it.'"
No arguments there…

NEW: Judge Sentences Man To Two Decades In Prison For Drug Death
A city man will serve 20 years in federal prison for supplying heroin to a Harrisonburg man who died of an overdose in 2011.
During a hearing Thursday in U.S. District Court in Harrisonburg, Judge Michael Urbanski handed down the stiff sentence to Jean Paul Alvarado for his role in the death of 33-year-old Eric Thomas.
Alvarado, 32, was convicted following a jury trial on May 16, 2013, of knowingly and intentionally distributing a mixture and substance containing heroin, resulting in serious bodily injury and death.
Thomas died in Harrisonburg on March 29, 2011.
Urbanski, saying the crime demanded a "severe penalty," said the 20-year prison term is sufficient to act as a deterrent and protect the public.
Assistant U.S. Attorney Grayson Hoffman, who prosecuted this case, had asked the court to impose a prison term of 24 years and 4 months. Hoffman pointed out the defendant had two prior narcotics convictions.
Alvarado was charged with possession of cocaine in July 2009, but placed on probation. He also sold cocaine to a confidential informant in a controlled purchase conducted by the RUSH Drug Task Force in March 2010, but was not arrested until the following year.
Andrea Harris, assistant federal public defender, who represented Alvarado, told the court 20 years in prison is "greater than necessary," but she acknowledged it is the mandatory-minimum term under the law.
Alvarado apologized for his actions, saying his "heart and prayers" go out to Thomas' family. He said he has improved his life in several ways since his arrest on March 30, 2011 — the day after Thomas died.
While incarcerated, Alvarado has focused on obtaining his GED and receiving certificates for completing multiple courses, as well as being baptized and leading a Bible study class, according to Harris.
But Urbanski stressed that the 20-year prison sentence was appropriate for this case. He pointed out Alvarado had not spent a single day in jail before providing the drug that resulted in Thomas' death.
Urbanski said the prison sentence will be followed by a three-year term of supervised release. He did not impose a fine, citing the defendant's inability to pay it.

Dzel - Going to check out wix.
Thanks as well.
A LIMPOPO woman is unable to move into her RDP house because it has been illegally sold to another person.
Shereen Mphahlele said she had applied for the house in 2008 at the Lepelle-Nkumpi municipality in Lebowakgomo. The house was allocated to her and registered in her name without her knowledge.
Mphahlele said she would call the municipal offices to enquire about her house and was told it had not yet been built.
She said she only discovered what had happened about the house when she met another woman who had been at the municipality when they both applied for houses.
"When the woman told me she was already living in her own house I decided to go to the municipal offices to find out [what was going on]," Mphahlele said.
She said records showed that a house had already been allocated to her and that the municipality was under the impression that she had occupied the house.
"I then went out to search for the house using the number allocated to me. I was shocked to discover that someone already occupied the house," she said.
Mphahlele approached the occupant, a taxi driver, who allegedly told her he had bought the house from a municipal official for R3,000.
She said efforts to have the municipality intervene drew a blank. She was sent from pillar to post, without anyone assisting her.
Mphahlele works as a cashier at a furniture store in Lebowakgomo.
"I still cannot understand why I'm being made to suffer while my house exists," she said.
Municipal spokesman Mokgadi Maubane confirmed yesterday that the house belonged to Mphahlele and said the houses were not to be sold.
"We will investigate circumstances that might have led to the selling of the house.
"Any person found to have been responsible will face the law," Maubane said.
Dzel - PS, I did get a response from the DA about Odendaal:
Odendaal being investigated by Gauteng Disciplinary Committee arising from the Public Protector's report.
Dzel - If it happens in a DA municipality (Using Midvaal as an example), then yes, the DA is to be blamed.
Guess what, it just did so please join me as we wag our collective finger at Madam Zille and shake our heads in disapproval.
Dzel - If it happens in a DA municipality (Using Midvaal as an example), then yes, the DA is to be blamed.
Oh look, it wasn't difficult finding a Sipho though he is a she.
A Mandela Park resident has added fuel to the fire of claims that the housing allocation process in the area is rigged – claiming that she has been involved in the illegal sales of RDP houses.
The Mandela Park housing development in Khayelitsha involves the development of 100 RDP houses for beneficiaries from the provincial housing waiting list.
Come on say it with me Sin; "These bloody DA agents", again!
Truth is, this is an ANC municipality, and they are responsible.
If your argument is they should tighten up process to double check this does not happen again then we are on the same page but I know you well enough to know placing blame is your motive so let's agree to disagree.
Q: If something similar happened in a DA controlled municipality would I also have a right to scream, "these bloody DA agents" even when the culprits name is uSipho who has been voting for PAC since the Baas allowed him to vote at the ripe age of 40?
Hey bro i don't think in bolobedu there is a fool that will vote ANC out maybe you coz you come from CT you are claiming that you are molotswi and one other thing andy member of any party can be employed in any manucipality as long as you have qualification for that job. so stop your critisizm (if you costipated just fart or go to toilet ANC helped most of people and famalies in Bolodu
@ Skhokho21
why are stealing my username (joking) LOL!!!
Dzel - Truth is, this is an ANC municipality, and they are responsible.
Dzel - The ANC wouldnt have non-ANC dudes working in their municipalities.
Here I thought the ANC was a 'collective'.
That's very speculative of you, unless you can provide application forms that includes a tick box for party membership then you are clutching at straws. That would be unconstitutional; if this were indeed the case the ANC would find itself in breach of Labour Law and our Constitution. I am sure the DA would be all over this if it were true but they are not, or are they?
Let's be careful of pointing fingers because of vested interest or cheap politicking; it does nothing to help the victim in this case.
A house for R3000.........Limpopo again the Head office of corruption......

The amazing "Legacy" video package aired before the match.
Bray and The Family also got an amazing voodoo entrance and "Live in Fear" performed live by a crazy looking band befitting of the voodoo scene and a swamp preacher.
Cena got his usual mixed reaction.
John Cena versus Bray Wyatt (with Erick Rowan & Luke Harper)
The crowd is electric to start.
Bray started on his knees challenging Cena "to be the monster that you are." Bray charged and Cena locked in a headlock. Both men on their feet Bray took control with punches and headbutts. Bray with a running charge and Cena responded with a wicked clothesline.
Cena fired up with punches. Bray laughed as Cena rained in punches. Harper on one apron and Rowan on the other to cause a distraction. Cena kept up the aggression with offense. Cena with a running attack. Bray responded with a back kick and a tossing suplex. He then hit some mounted punches and stepped on his hand for good measure.
Cena tried a comeback but Wyatt locked in a sleeper. Cena popped up with running shoulders and the Proto-bomb. You Can't See Me but Bray popped up with the creepy crab walk to freak Cena out. Rowan distracted Cena and Wyatt dropped Cena for a two. Running body attack by Wyatt. Another body attack stopped by a shoe to the face. A tornado DDT by Cena got two.
Cena went for the top rope Fameasser but Wyatt caught in a stacked up powerbomb for two. Cena looked for the STF but Wyatt fought out. Cena hit the Protobomb and the Five Knuckle Shuffle. He looked for the AA but Wyatt dropped him with a slam for two.
The two fought on the apron and Wyatt dropped him with a DDT onto the apron. Wyatt got two. The crowd is now singing "He's Got the Whole World in His Hands." Bray looked for a superplex but Cena pushed him off. He then came off the top onto Harper and Rowan down on the ringside floor.
On the outside, Wyatt sent Cena to the steps. Wyatt went to use the steps but Cena reversed and shoved Wyatt into them. He then looked to drop the steps onto Wyatt but tossed them away like a good guy. Back in the ring, Wyatt took control with a body block and got a two count. Wyatt looked for a senton but Cena reversed and hit the AA for a long two count.
Rowan distracted the referee, which allowed Harper to hit a drive by. Wyatt got a two count. Wyatt tossed him to the floor. On the floor, Cena speared Harper through announce table barricade in a crazy spot.
Back in, Wyatt does the creepy turnbuckle pose and looked for Sister Abigail. Cena reversed it to the STF. Wyatt got out and hit Sister Abigail for two. Wyatt brought in a chair and tossed it to Cena. Wyatt challenged Cena to use it on him. Cena nailed Rowan with the chair and Wyatt snuck in a two count. Wyatt looked for Sister Abigail again but Cena popped into an AA for the pin.
WINNER – John Cena
Cena hugged a crying Cena fan in the front row in a great visual. That is why he will never turn into a villain right there folks.

Kerala Style Chicken Curry
Pin ItI loves a curry! As does most of the country it would seem.
And I love making them from scratch, no pastes or sauces in sight. And, in most cases, no recipe. Take a look at the spices in the rack and plough on in, varying quantity and mix every time. Now I'm sure there are some very exotic names for the style(s) of curry that I usually make but generally they are tomato based and tend to be roughly in the same region of flavours.
So to celebrate my dad's birthday I decided to try something different. I went along the coconut route, which led me to reading about Kerala. After reading a few extracts and a number of different recipes I did this:
Combination of chicken thighs and drums to feed 12 – skinless & left on the bone (optional)
¼ cup veg oil
Thumb sized piece og ginger (finely chopped)
10 Cloves garlic (finely chopped)
400g Shallots (sliced)
2 Green chilli (deseeded and sliced)
3 Tbsp Ground Coriander
½ Tbsp Chilli powder
½ Tsp Turmeric
2 Tsp Garam Masala
2 x 400g/ml tins Coconut Milk
½ Tsp dry roasted and crushed fennel seeds
Salt to taste
Fresh coriander to serve
- Remove skin chicken if not bought skinless. Put to one side. Keep chicken skin (not related but tasty idea).
- In a large pan (with lid), gently fry off the ginger and garlic in the oil.
- After 5 mins, add the shallots and fresh chilli and turn the heat up slightly.
- While the shallots are cooking mix the ground coriander, chilli powder and turmeric into a paste with a couple of tbsp of water.
- When the shallots are translucent and softened (but not browned) add the spice paste. Cook for 8-10 mins.
- Add the chicken pieces. Mix thoroughly to ensure all the chicken is coated.
- After 5 mins add the add the garam masala and the crushed fennel seeds, mix thoroughly again.
- Dilute ¼ of a tin of coconut milk with a couple of tbsp of water and add to the pan. Cover and leave to cook for 20 mins on a low heat
- Add the remaining coconut milk, re-cover and cook on a low heat for 1 hour. Season to taste.
- Serve with boiled rice, naan bread and I like my own tomato, onion and coriander salad too
- Sprinkle some chopped fresh coriander over the top.
Went down a treat. Should probably post the recipe for that salad I mentioned at the end there…… Bit of a cheat though. Find it here.
Oh and what about that chicken skin? Well I attempted to make Chicken Scratchings as per the boys down at Solita. Not perfect but not far off. Attempt number 2 coming soon!!

Sounds top dude. I reckon I'd give that a whirl!
Also, lets talk Round 2 of the SoLita style chicken scratchings please…

Items like the control insert g dialog are provided for convenience.

New screens have been released on Hitman: Absolutions Contracts mode. Looks like it'll be a riot (though if you're a master of subterfuge, stealth and stabbing, a very quiet riot).
In addition to checking out the screens, make sure you check out this trailer explaining the whole Contracts mode if you haven't already! It's entirely removed from the storyline, but still looks great fun.

Video Industry News Video Company News Technology Industry News Technology Company News Novelty Industry News Novelty Company News Gay Industry News Gay Company News Legal Industry News All Company News
Released: May 01st, 2006
Running Time: 69
Director: Arthur Jeffers
Company: Old Pueblo
Cast: Smokie Flame, Robert Whaad, Paxton, Chloe Fay, Extreme Holly, Joe (I), Erin Moore, Alisha Lane
Critical Rating: AA 1/2
Genre: All-Sex
Though real estate has long been considered a cutthroat business, Old Pueblo's Realty Angels upholds it is more of a deepthroat industry. Director Arthur Jeffers plays the "narrative role" of boss "Charlie," and all the "angels" in his employ are vying for the prized, week-long Hawaiian vacation. However, the premise is loose as an old pornstar's pussy, being but briefly noted at each scene's outset.
Smokie Flame and Extreme Holly are the video's most well-known performers, each putting her heart and soul (and booty!) into the sale. Erin Moore, the office n00b, takes a dam-burster on the belly, and lesbian coworkers fuck in bright red double-ended ecstasy. Asian interracial anal ends it with a cum-tattooed lower-back tramp stamp! We never find out who wins.
As a matter of quality, the all-digital action sequences are better than their solitary menu lead-in (the latter cheaply-made and unacceptably pixilated). The absence of standard scene-selection hurts, and two meager bonuses don't help the cause.


text: There were so many amazing shows at Outside Lands this year, from up-and-coming acts to legendary performers. Paul McCartney played an incredible set that included many Beatles favorites, making not being at the festival an even tougher pill to swallow.

I wear a charm of Ganesh I bought in India in 2005 around my neck. I have a real affection for this elephant who was the son of the gods and is carried around on the back of a mouse. For me, Ganesh is the god of new beginnings and it gives me hope when I face challenges. I am always looking for Ganesh.
Photographs are from Delhi, Agra, Allahabad and Varanasi showing the people and rituals of the places.
I teach photography, web design for artists and artist book classes at Northern Kentucky University and have been a working artist for over 40 years. I began making blurb books the first day I got a notice that blurb existed. Since then I have made quite a few for myself, gotten friends and family to make books, and use blurb when teaching my courses in artist bookmaking and photography and whenever I teach study abroad classes. Blurb democratized bookmaking for the rest of us and for that I am grateful. Thank you Eileen.

Awful, MB. Crap. Glad you have your SIL to help you and Ken with immediate knowledge. Love and hugs and prayers.
I'm in a blue fit. Ken turned up with what we thought was a terrible case of thrush on Oct. 29. The difference between that and the thrush he'd had during treatment was, his tongue was and has been GREEN. And he's been feeling horrible, like he has the flu. We have been to 4 doctors in ...
I served 10 years active duty. I was never pregnant. But, when my very gung ho friend returned from her six weeks of maternity leave, she found on her desk orders for her to go to Korea for a year by herself--no baby, no husband. She left the military. Glad to hear that this cruel policy is under scrutiny.
In the year since the beginning of the Military History Collections Inventory project, other members of the team and I have seen just about every type of military uniform we could conceive of. We have learned to identify branch, rank, even time period of different uniform pieces with relative e...

More than a decade after the U.S. invasion of Afghanistan—now our longest war—most Americans still know next to nothing about the people who live there, and the liberties denied them. Lessons from a rapid education.
World War II had veteran parades. Vietnam War vets were often ignored, if not shunned. For the current generation of war-weary Americans, solace comes on YouTube.

text: International Alert is currently in the final stages of a one-year research work trying to uncover why 'enemy images' and negative stereotypes towards opposing sides to the conflicts in the South Caucasus are so deeply entrenched. The press service of the organization reports that the research has been looking at the mainstream media, blogosphere, political discourses and history textbooks in the whole South Caucasus. Researchers from across the South Caucasus (including Armenians and Azerbaijanis) worked together in cross-regional teams to examine these different media that shape public perceptions in each society in the region.The research on the media from different regions in the South Caucasus show quite similar results. The study of the blogosphere revealed a "mirror-effect" between each region's blogs. The predominantly young bloggers across the region trade insults and use language to belittle and de-humanise the 'enemy'. The posts in the blogosphere incite predominantly hate and other negative feelings; bloggers often hide behind the anonymity of the internet. Although less anonymous, the work of the journalists across the region is influenced by similar negative tendencies. Interviews with journalists from the region on ethical dilemmas showed how the line between objectivity and patriotism is often hard to draw in times of conflict, certain information might be withheld while other is published widely. The study of political discourses revealed how the conflicts and more specifically the concept of an 'external' enemy are often used around election times by competing factions internally in societies. The resilience of enemy narratives is explained to a certain extent by a close study of the region's history textbooks. The textbooks across the region tend to depict a simplistic and one-sided narrative of history which is absorbed by children at an early age and accepted as 'truth'.Researchers who worked on this one-year long project adhered to strict research methodologies, aiming for maximum objectivity and allowing for comparative analysis between the different conflicting sides. The main questions that the outcomes of this work pose is how to overcome these negative discourses in the information space across the region and in each of the societies in the South Caucasus and how, against this background, will it be possible to shift negative attitudes and build positive relationships.International Alert will be working on addressing some of the main issues highlighted by this research through some future projects. Some of these projects will aim to increase capacities and the skills of the young journalists and media professionals across the region.The research underscores more than ever the need to continue to foster dialogue and to develop capacities for critical and independent thinking in particular amongst the younger generations in the South Caucasus.

Rock and design duo Mark and Estel concluded the first official night of MBFW with a rousing collection, ideal for the fashion forward woman or man with a bit of an edge. (In other words, most of NYC's female and much of its make population!) The remarkable appeal of Mark and Estel's clothing was apparent from the verbal reactions from both celebrities ("Dancing with the Stars" hunk, Maksim Chmerkovskiy, singer/songwriter Skylar Grey, Rutina Wesley of "True Blood", Vanessa Ray of "Pretty Little Liars" and "Blue Bloods", and Taryn Manning) and those less "famous", alike.
Last season (see video here), they wowed the crowd with clean lines and surprise twists, in their MBFW debut. And staying true to their funky, yet restrained rock and roll inspired style, Mark and Estel's F/W collection was composed of notes of black, leather, velvet and wool - with a few trills of lace and silk thrown in. Standouts included a brown and grey striped hooded sweater dress, black leather body armor (Mark and Estel by Douglas Dunnam), and a red and black striped military coat.
The models in the show were styled with slicked back hair by Niki Walker-Kennedy for Paul Mitchell. And bold lip color artfully applied by Smashbox Cosmetics craftspeople, led by Holly Gowers, along with attention grabbing Zoya nails by Sunshine Outing, struck all the right chords for creating the ultimate rocker-chic look.
But while the models may have been sporting rocker chic, the real rocking came at the end of the show, when Mark and Estel eschewed the usual curtain call for an electric guitar (played by Mark) accompanied performance of one of their songs. It was the perfect, driven, irreverent button for a cheekily urbane, yet eminently wearable fashion fugue.

It's almost the end of another full week in Chicago and we have a long weekend ahead of us. Why not spend this Labor Day weekend applying for some new jobs out there?
