YSN has long been known for its clinical expertise and emphasis on providing direct health care services to the community. A large number of faculty members maintain a clinical practice and spend a considerable amount of their time in clinical settings. Such a high number of the faculty who provide direct patient care is not the norm among nursing education institutions, especially in those institutions that have developed as extensive and productive a research base as Yale.
YSN oversees mechanisms to support faculty who maintain a clinical practice in addition to their teaching and scholarly activities. Most faculty who also practice clinically do so through either co-terminous appointment arrangements with Yale-New Haven Hospital or community based practices, or through affiliation with the Yale Medical Group, as is the case with the YSN Midwifery Practice. Such arrangements facilitate synergy among faculty practice, teaching, and scholarship, and also support partnerships with other providers in a variety of clinical care settings.
For more than 80 years, YSN has had a tremendous impact on the health of individuals and families in our local community. YSN faculty have spearheaded the development of new strategies to minimize the effects of diabetes and the HIV/AIDS epidemic. They have created new models to care for the chronically ill, put in place new technology to bring cardiac care into the home setting,developed new programs to reduce disparities in health, and have responded to the health care needs of women in the Greater New Haven area.

Self-reliance and sustainability in the 21st century.
By Heidi Hunt
trees, Joyce Kilmer, firewood
I think that I shall never see
A poem lovely as a tree.
A tree whose hungry mouth is prest
Against the sweet earth's flowing breast;
A tree that looks at God all day,
And lifts her leafy arms to pray;
A tree that may in summer wear
A nest of robins in her hair;
Upon whose bosom snow has lain,
Who intimately lives with rain.
Poems are made by fools like me,
But only God can make a tree.
"Trees" by Albert Joyce Kilmer 1886–1918
When I was a child, my parents would take me on walks in the woods and teach me the names of trees, and in the fall we would collect nuts from the shagbark hickory and black walnut trees.
I climbed trees and made hideouts in trees. My favorite was a tall, smooth-skinned beech tree with horizontal branches that was perfect for scouting out the woods around me. In the fall, I collected lovely maple leaves, pressed them between sheets of waxed paper and hung them in the window for the sun to shine through. After receiving a painting set as a gift, I painted bare-branched trees, trying to capture the particular natural shape that each species is born with. I saw trees as useful for nests and nuts and twigs for starting camp fires. But it wasn't until I heated solely with firewood that I saw trees for the other ways they are useful.
Heating solely with firewood can require an education in wood and its uses. If you live east of the Mississippi, you may prefer oak for your woodstove, folks who live in the dry west rely more on tamarack and pine. Of course, there are many choices of hard and soft woods in between.
But it's not just the kind of trees that you need to have knowledge of when you burn wood, but also where in the forest the trees come from. Was the tree already dead? Are there quite a few dead trees, so if you take one will there be others for birds to nest and find dinner in? Is the tree close to other trees so when it falls it might get hung up causing all kinds of trouble to get it down? Is the tree close to a road or trail so you can get the wood out of the forest and onto a truck or sled? Does the tree have many branches, growing close together, thus guaranteeing much knotty wood to split?
Once I lived on a mountainous 80 acres and heated solely with firewood, I saw trees in a new way. While building a cabin, I realized that the skinny lodge pole pines on the other side of the pasture would make great beams to hold the walls together. A forked maple became a wonderfully artistic hat rack; and some dead cedars were used as fence posts.
I continue to enjoy the forest for the beauty of the trees and the food and housing they provide, but I also see them as a valuable and useful resource. Do you have a favorite useful tree species? Post a comment below and tell us about it.

The newspaper only recommends 'safe' Democratic candidates
Re: "Sadler pick shows objectivity" by Fred Speno, Tuesday Letters.
In reading Speno's letter, I have to assume that he has either not lived in the area long or reads a different newspaper.
I've lived in the D-FW area for 22 years, and there is a clear trend in The News editorial board's occasional recommendations for Democrats in elections: Either the candidate is from a gerrymandered district that has been drawn up to cram as many reliably Democratic voters into it as possible and thus is a "safe seat" for Dems (for example, Eddie Bernice Johnson) or the recommended candidate is running in a statewide election that he or she has no hope of winning in one of the most reliable GOP-leaning states in the country (i.e., Paul Sadler).
One has to conclude that The News makes these occasional recommendations for the Democrat to create the illusion of objectivity, since the content of virtually every editorial on issues big and small reveals the board's true GOP slant.

Settling the harsh and beautiful coast of Greenland circa 1889
Inuits and Danes eke out a living on the rugged and icy coast of the world's largest island.
Inuits and Danes eke out a living on the rugged and icy coast of the world's largest island.
Arctic sea ice melt may be as much as a month ahead of schedule due to extremely mild air and sea temperatures.
These shifts mean this area of the frozen expanse could increase Greenland's contributions to overall sea level rise in the coming years, the study researchers conclude.
The sudden ice loss from the Jakobshavn Glacier may have set a record.
Melting Greenland ice has severed the connection a landmass off northwest Greenland, turning it into an island.
Wander around Greenland's landscape from the comfort of your laptop.
In 2014, global warming affected the Arctic in many different ways, from an all-time low in the reflectivity of Greenland's ice sheet to declining sea ice.
The United States, Russia, Norway, Canada and Denmark all have areas surrounding the North Pole.
Satellite imagery from late July and early August shows plenty of smoke reaching the ice, which can speed up melting.
Three glaciers holding back a vast ice stream in northeast Greenland, a region thought to be the last bastion of stability in that rapidly warming region, are now thinning and moving more rapidly into the sea, a new study found. The study overturns l...

Greenland's huge sheet of ice always experiences some surface melt during the summer. Not all the way, mind; about 50 percent of the surface sees some melting naturally. This melting refreezes almost immediately or is lost to the ocean and is normal....

Mama O be preaching. You will never be able to centre yourself into the light of your blessings if you are out here trying to catch the wrong one. *Note to self* RELAX.
Cleopatra xox
And that is okay. xox
Well… 2 years and my baby is still alive. Hungry and full of old life. I want to start sharing again. So here I am. xox
Time brought us here
New, changed, strange
Pain held our hand,
Found us and forced survival
Truth was our guide
Shapes of love in eternity
For self, for power, for joy
I'm only reaching because you're nearer
To find that I never had to exert at all
Just touch
And feel
And be
The fear that holds us in its grasp
Puzzled by our valour and strength
Dazed and confused
Loving in treacherous territory
I'm dreaming in slow motion
Thinking about the little molecules swimming in the depths of my mind
Stimulating, Working, Floating ELECTRICITY
There you stand
You're showing me the screen of your thoughts
Your pursuit of my beauty has lead me to the best part of me
I've found this maze in my soul
This never-ending, ever-lastin blinding truth
It allows me to find hope in the struggle
It's a sadness that allows me to open up each wound in my being
To spread their pus and blood and hope they form words
Told I'm too impenitent
Too opinionated
My stormy nature too much for the calm world that's too pragmatic to holf and protect my foolhardy NATURE
Dreams become my refuge
A world inside my head
Where I neither have to colour between the lines or contain my pleasure at the magnifence of our electricity
This life has shown me flames
Flames that seem to have burned a path to you
I've struggled, I've cried
These bruised knuckles and tear stains are the parts of me that tell my journey to self-love
It took that much
Now here you are, not "my everything",
Not "my forever and a day"
But my each-day-as-it-comes.
My little piece of happiness
Let's do it right
We really take happiness and joy so for granted until we experience it at its best. It's like every other time you thought you were happy gets questioned because of the sheer joy that you feel in the moment.
I'm all about that right now. I have no time for stress and anxiety. I'm going to do the best that I can and reap the rewards.
I will read, love and do what makes me happy. I will strive for it, at any cost.
I'm 24 and self-aware, there's no time or need for any kind of dishonesty with myself at this time. I'm still learning about me. I'm learning that I love people and helping them achieve their dreams. I'm learning that I'm in control of everything in me. It's scary yet exciting.
I implore you to do the same. Experience things anew. If it doesn't feel right, stop doing it. However… If it makes you HAPPY, keep on doing it. Let it be good for you and your spirit. Let it be healthy. Let it be yours. This life thing only comes once in this form. Let us refuse to waste it being miserable.
Song On My Mind: Submerge: Til We Become The Sun (Maxwell)
This is the good stuff.
The kind that has you up at 2am mulling over a cup of tea, loving each second of life coz every next one feels as good as the last
The kind that has you staring into nothing and seeing rainbows and savannahs
The kind that has you catching raindrops in your hand, embracing the grace before the puddle,
The kind that has you admiring the techni-coloured bubble before it bursts
Yes, this is that good stuff
The kind that has you sending knee-mails to The Most High, thanking Him for colouring your tomorrows with hope and joy
Imploring Him to let it last a little longer
Yes, this is that good stuff
The kind that has you wanting to be a better person so you can feel like you deserve it more
The kind that simply puts a spring in your step
The kind that brushes your face with a glow of joy
The toe-curling stuff
The stuff that takes you to the edge of heaven and back
The kind that awakens the royalty in you
The kind that reveals the majesty you've always been
Forever yours this amazing stuff…
Forever good
Forever essential
Forever you
The good stuff

Dr. Beresford has more than forty years of experience in socio-medical and epidemiological research. She is well known for her leadership role in the Women's Health Initiative, particularly of the Dietary Modification Advisory Committee, and of the WHI Seattle Clinical Center, and remains active in that study as part of the Publications and Presentations Committee and of the Clinical Coordinating Center. She has also made a significant contribution in studies directly aimed to reduce health disparities. Dr. Beresford has directed five different worksite randomized trials of community and individual interventions to improve dietary choices and reduce obesity, especially among blue collar worksites. Her work in socioeconomic disparities in obesity has contributed to her strong reputation in multilevel studies and in mediation analyses, leading to additional multilevel intervention studies with Latinas and with members of the Navajo Nation. She has published more than 200 articles on chronic disease with nutritional, behavioral or socio-behavioral areas of focus.
I am Professor of Epidemiology at the University of Washington, with additional appointments in health services and nutritional sciences, and am a full member at the Fred Hutchinson Research Center. I am an expert on nutritional epidemiology, social determinants of health, methods of research, and prevention/health promotion. I bring more than forty years of experience in sociomedical and epidemiological research, first as a medical statistician and then as an epidemiologist.
- Worksite randomized trials of behavioral interventions
- Socioeconomic status and Obesity in women
- Women's Health Initiative
- Nutrition and Physical Activity Assessment
- Breast cancer disparities in Latinas
- Cancer-related public health interventions in underserved communities
Research Interests
Dr. Beresford's research interests are in the areas of nutritional epidemiology and chronic disease prevention. Her work is specifically designed to improve the scientific basis for public health policy and recommendations concerning dietary intake, physical activity and intake of folic acid levels. She has been Principal Investigator on numerous individual and group randomized trials of dietary behavior intervention.
Dr. Beresford has been an investigator with the Women's Health Initiative since its inception, contributing to the intervention design in the Dietary Modification trial, and is lead author of one of the primary results papers of the randomized trial, namely the low fat dietary pattern and risk of colorectal cancer. She was a member of the Committee on Identifying and Assessing Unintended Effects of Genetically Engineered Foods on Human Health, National Academy of Sciences, 2002 2004, and an invited speaker at the Institute of Medicine's workshop on Managing Food-related Risks in 2005. She served as President of the American Epidemiological Society from 2007 to 2008.
In 2015, she was elected to the Washington State Academy of Sciences.
Her research focus in the science of changing behavior on a population level has involved many interdisciplinary collaborations. The development and evaluation of obesity prevention interventions in worksites, using rigorous group randomized trial design and collaborative principles with participating worksites, provides one such example. She remains active in worksite based health promotion research, in methodological studies related to nutrition and physical activity assessment, and has NCI funding in health disparities research in cancer population based studies, including working with Latinas and Native Americans.
Teaching Interests
Dr. Beresford founded and now co-teaches the course EPI 538/NUTR 538, "Nutritional Epidemiology" currently offered in Autumn quarter. She co-authored the book chapter entitled Nutritional Epidemiology in the recent series in Public Health Nutrition. Offered in Winter quarter, she co-teaches EPI 548/HSERV 548, "Social Determinants of Health: Research Methods."

Anyone else?
Are you the drunk little sister?
Anyone else?
ETA I used to be. I don't drink anymore.
I'm the drunk older sister. My younger sister is quite responsible and articulate.
Bunny Swan
Sober big sis here..... but was the drunk big sister before i got sober.
how i stopped drinking is beyond me.... cos there are days when i fuckin need a drink
HOWEVER, I was lurking over there the other day for the first time in a long time.
Their "new accounts" had much more class than most of ours here. They took the time to upload profile pics. Jesus and Satan even showed up! I was impressed.
Bunny Swan
I'm the middle, so I was the drunk younger and older sister.
I do like my wine but I am the big sis. I have an older brother but I have always been the more responsible one and with 3 younger siblings I identify more with the big sis role than the little sis one.
Loving Olivia 2/09! Also loving Peter 12/11!

AbstractThis paper reviews the synthesis, characterization, biodegradation and usage of bioresorbable polymers based on polydepsipeptides. The ring-opening polymerization of morpholine-2,5-dione derivatives using organic Sn and enzyme lipase is discussed. The dependence of the macroscopic properties of the block copolymers on their structure is also presented. Bioresorbable polymers based on polydepsipeptides could be used as biomaterials in drug controlled release, tissue engineering scaffolding and shape-memory materials.

I've been trying to work out why I have no human visitors on my website.
The problem is that the javascript is not loaded up in the footer. I tried to load the wp-slimstat-js.php file directly but the page gave an error 'Error parsing wp-config'
Further checking found that DB_PASSWORD is not found in the parsed_config and therefore the check on line 48 fails. I had a look at all of the other plug-ins including the rest of wp-slimstat and none of them directly query the database; they all use the wpdb object.
The direct access to the database fails, which is why the javascript doesn't get served up. I'm not sure what the fix is for this though. This happened with a Debian install, but it could happen with others as well.

Media Relations Office
(Commentary by History professor Gil Troy): As Barack Obama drafts his second inaugural speech, he should remember the speeches that made him president. He should ponder the vision of multicultural nationalism in his 2004 Democratic Convention keynote. He should revive the controlled but righteous indignation in his 2008 address on race relations that defused the Reverend Jeremiah Wright controversy. And he should tap into the lyrical patriotism that made his first victory speech soar.
(Michael Becker, a doctoral student at McGill University, was a scientific diver on an expedition to Lake Untersee, Antarctica - this the third of 6 blog posts): There are no helicopters on this end of the continent. For someone as unenthusiastic about walking as I am, this news comes as a definitive blow to my goal of doing as little exercise as possible. But even an ultramarathoner would be chilled by the prospect of an 80-mile journey over treacherous glacial crevasses with several tons of gear.
(Abstract of article by McGill grad Adam Gopnik) …Perhaps the densest concentration of sound scholars in the world can be found in Montreal, at McGill University, where the writer went to school. Albert Bregman, a former professor of the writer's, spent almost fifty years at McGill studying the psychology of sound, and his masterwork, "Auditory Sense Analysis: The Perceptual Organization of Sound," remains a basic text in the field.
(Athletics' Jill Barker) As a young psychologist, James Sallis was interested in exploring the motivation behind getting people to exercise. But it wasn't long before he discovered that existing theories designed to improve exercise adherence were, for the most part, ineffective. Sallis, who is speaking in Montreal this week, is this year's winner of the Bloomberg Manulife Prize for the Promotion of Active Health.
A new study showing a triple combination of blood pressure drugs and common painkillers can increase the risk of serious kidney problems means doctors will have to be extra vigilant when prescribing this particular concoction of drugs. A team of researchers from the Jewish General Hospital and McGill University found a triple therapy combination of a diuretic with a second antihypertensive drug plus a painkiller was associated with a 30 per cent higher risk of kidney failure - and the risk was 80 per cent higher during the first 30 days of treatment.

Review: Havana Cafe & Bar
Are you excited by food? By travel? Does the very name "Havana café" propel you to come rushing to it in Colaba, in the hope of being transported to Cuba? It had that effect on us, we rushed here but alas! The food was anything but Cuban. But boy! Was I transported? Not to Cuba but to the most undiscovered gems in India.

Review: Hoppipola
I admit. I love happy people, happy movies, happy songs, happy books and ofcourse happy restaurants. And this brand new Parel restaurant aint just happy, it's "hopp"ingly happy.
Multi-cuisine bar
First Question: Is BKC's new wife any good? Answer:Take a look at the photograph I shot. Second Question: At The Good Wife, how was my foodie blind date with six readers? Answer: Take a look at the photograph. This new bar serves up a cocktail of relaxed merriment which is infectious. I am absolutely over the moon to spend an evening here with my fabulous foodie blind dates.
There's fun written all over this new bar. It's large, has a warm, welcoming feel and is packed. We love the wall mural sketch with it's Neanderthal man, Batman and Spiderman playing cards and so on. There is a choice of seating arrangements…comfy and dinner table too.
The co-host of Discovery Channel's series Cocktail Kings spearheads the bar here. So there is drama and flavour, my drinking buddies rate these highly, be it The Good Wife, a whisky sour cocktail ( sprayed with a vodka based black cardamom spray) or The Wolf Of BKC, ( orange vodka based with a rose aroma.) The tostada sprout chat brims over with zing and texture and is a must try. Tasty Baby Lamb Sliders – and their vegetarian version of corn jalapeño sliders too. Goodwife home salad, fresh and well made. Okayish though oversauced pasta ( Fetuccini, penne). Succulent Five spice crispy duck delights, Vanilla Panacotta and chocolate fondant pass muster.
Here's the irrepressible Shayan Italia's fun take on the Rosemary Chicken Tikka – "A touch dry for my liking and everyone questioned where the Rosemary was? I thought it being late and she may have gone to bed" It certainly was dry and lacklustre. Ditto for the Forest Mushroom Filo, stodgy Chicken Gyoza, and three Peppercorn Chicken. The roast chicken disappoints.
Why did the Rocking Tham brothers (of the award winning Trilogy fame) name this relaxed, fun, buzzing bar "The Good Wife"? I don't know of any good wife who conceives cocktails with such imagination and mixes them with such skill or magnetizes such a buzzing crowd. The food is a mixture of appealing and ho-hum. Dont go for the food, go for a fun-time to this open-through-the-day bar. This Good wife is a plausible cynosure of a fun night out and not just a grubby refuelling station.
P.S.Our Shayan Italia has the last word about The Good Wife " The Queen Bee took so many of our photographs that we left the place like rock stars. In the end they all concluded that I was the one making the most of the evening, purely because I'm a complete loser, hopelessly single and still looking for "The Good Wife"

Review: ASILO
Multi-cuisine Rooftop bar
Sexily glamorous. Highest in Mumbai (40th floor) Alfresco. Rooftop Bar. These words define Asilo (A-Sea-lo) perfectly. Sure! It serves a full dinner menu too (we ate our way through the menu) but it's as a bar that it rocks. My foodie guests, architect, businessman and yoga expert, rock too. Dashing and gifted, California educated Saket Sethi has not only done Salman Khan and other Bollywood offices and homes but also huge corporate projects.
The long legged lovely Shraddha Setalvad has been developing the Yoga Kids in School Program ever since the new Government has mapped yoga back to India. Friendly, well-travelled foodie businessman Safdar Bandukwala shares his expert views as does another dapper gentleman who prefers to remain anonymous. Our review…
Walk up
the dimly lit stairwell, onto the 40th floor of the Palladium hotel into a charming space sparkling with white and wood, sofas, high tables, dramatic lighting, goodlooking long bar et al.
We ate our way through the menu (Robata grills, use of Josper, an elegant combination of a grill & oven) and came away with mixed reactions. Well made Scallops with Prosciutto
And Baked Brie with onion marmalade, apple confit and spiced nuts came up tops..
A fun cocktail menu… ask for the El Presidente, Sandia Picante, Apple Pie-scented Vanilla Sky. with its mix of vodka, water and cinnamon. El Verde, vodka, midori melon, sweet and sour mix .
That dimly lit stairwell, slow service at dinner are downsides. So is the overdone steak, okayish
barbecued Cottage Cheese. A lot of dishes (
Choc Profitroles and Crème Brûlée were not
available.) Oversweet Mango mia too.
Open only in the evenings, this 40th floor sprawling rooftop bar is a project perfectly suited to restaurateurs (Jay Singh, Sanjay Mahtani of Shiro, Hard Rock Cafe, CPK, Big Kahuna, ) with a gift for breathing fresh life into familiar genres and for conjuring buzz . Though there is culinary thought in the menu (Robata grill et al) the menu has more misses than hits. But then as I said at the outset, it's more of a Rooftop bar with great ambiance, crowd and music. It really does raise the bar! Cheers!

Review: BRICKHOUSE CAFÉ AND BAR
European and Continental
One more brand new restobar (this time in Andheri), four fabulous foodie blind dates (who I met over instagam) add upto a fun-afternoon as we review Brickhouse cafe. The first to arrive is the lovely @rinichatterjee new girl in the city, who works for a luxury lifestyle management company.
@ila_ismail a physiotherapist also blogs about travel, fashion&lifestyle,
@raisinghanirashmi a celebrity manager is a passionate homechef and
@truptimarolia has recently quit a job to pursue her dream of opening a cupcake bakery from home. Our review follows.
We all give a thumbsup to the exposed brickwalls rustic doors, wooden tables, industrial, unfinished work-in-progress look. Alfresco area too.
While the bar dabbles in Molecular cocktails (candyfloss, Dutch Kettle) the food is a decent Mediteranean mix and match fare of yum hummus, a surprisingly light risotto with spinach. Even the Fusili ala diavolo is al dente with perfectly cooked prawns.
Philly steak sandwich is just about okay, the Mushrooms soft moist. While the 4 Brick pizza (pineapple spinach mushrooms) is passable. Belgian chocolate Molten lava cake worth trying.
Undercooked chicken, an Epic burger (supposedly Anguswith Jack daniel Barbecue sauce) is an epic underperformer with a laclustre patty and soggy buns. Shrimp Turds (why would anyone name a dish like that?) with bacon wrapped prawns is avoidable. Ditto for the cheesecake.
Open through the day, Brickhouse café has a young, cheery, casual vibe. It offers comfort pizza pasta sandwich kind of food at comforting prices ( Rs 1500 av meal for 2).If in the vicinity it is the perfect place to lounge about and linger than go for a serious meal.
P.S. Our blind-date adventure continued as we popped into the brand new Boston Cupcakery next door. Tasted all the cupcakes, the unique cupcake shakes, the Ganache, chocolate symphony and Red velvet shake come out tops.

Review: The Irish House
American, European
"Ireland se aaya mere dost, dost ko salaam karo". A couple of months ago, our very own rocking Irish House (the largest one yet) set up in Andheri. More than a year ago, the first of these Irish triplets was born in Phoenix Mills, followed by Kala Ghoda. Ive eaten and "happy houred" at all, also given a thumbs up verdict as we did in our latest Andheri checkout. Richard Koszarek is famous for his steaks, pork chops and beans, while Amrita's mutton pickle is legendary.
The well-traveled foodie couple Amrita and Richard Koszarek not only spend a lot of time in London but Richard particularly enjoys the pubs there. They say Yes! to The Irish House.
Everything in this predictably themed, wooden-decored space is larger than life; from the expansive, high-ceilinged hall to the TV screens. Brick walls with trademark Irish house posters (take time to read them Beer Ladder, the Whisky Wall, Beer Kegsand thePost Box, Community tables…you name it.
Large (that word again) portions of deep fried fare (be it the blistering chilli poppers oozing cheese, or the fleshy mushrooms crunchy with pine nuts) is tasty. On recommendations from (@mihirsagar @dina_bshah @harpr iya_kohli
@abbas_974@thebombayfoodie) I try the Chicken tacosBeer Can Chicken cordon bleu and Grande nachos, pail of Popcorn et al . Chicken tenders are better in Kala Ghoda but otherwise all the rest of the fare satisfies.Well-stocked bar, with 42 types of beer from across the globe (draught beer is served in Kegs & Towers) Richard recommends the Erdinger wheat beer and Stella Artois. Try the innovative cocktails (Irish Trash Can, Irish Car Bomb)
The oven was not working the night we were there so Richard couldn't get his Steak 'n Kidney Pie. Too many deepfried, overdone starters. The large wedge of oversweet Irish Chocolate Torte and the Kahlua Mousse were avoidable.
Packed, bustling and vibrant…Ive checked out all three Irish Houses at different times of day and night.Each time, I found that when the high-ceilinged space is sufficiently crowded, it has a lived-in, age-softened feel.
And when most of the generously portioned dishes appealingly complement the atmosphere, it hits the sweet spot. No gourmet flashes, it's mostly a mix of pub stalwarts comfort foods at comforting prices. Happy hours ( 5 to 8pm ) add to the happiness. Want a cheery, beery, noisy time ? (age no bar) this way please !
The Irish House, 1st floor, Fun Republic, Opp. new link Road, Andheri (West) 61046161
Open, 12 noon – 1am
Meal for 2: Rs 2000
I'm eating and drinking Emmycitement…er excitement. Here, in Hollywood, this glamorous land of eternal sunshine, the air is so thick with excitement over the high-voltage Emmy awards that I could slice it and pop it into my cocktail glass (which I do too). And its evident through all my eatingsbout (from the Voltaggio brother's "Ink" Nobu's first ever restaurant "Matsuhisa" to the king of chefs Wolfgang Puck's "Spago). But it's in the iconic rockstar "Sunset Marquis" where for over 50 years not only have Emmy, Grammy, Oscar winners, legends (including our very own Bachchan family) stayed but their bar manager and actor Tony Nuncio has been making waves in Hollywood with his latest creation of the cognac based cocktail "Breaking Dad". Not only does it celebrate the Emmy winner of 2013 of the same name but also George Rosenthal's love for cars and his son. Bacon and seasalt popcorn compliment the drink and Im excited to be in Los Angeles on the night of the Emmy awards!
P.S. Ive been overwhelmed and overjoyed by your response via instagram posts to my request to #dinewithrashmi. Im so sorry that Ive been away so long and unable to keep my promise. Will surely do so as soon as Im back.
Review: The Bombay Bronx
Bar (Bombay street inspired finger food)
Yeh hai Bombay Bronx meri jaan. You'll either love it or hate it. You'll either find it creative in it's attention to thematic detailing or just an overload of thakke hue clichés. My guests and I love it. Surprisingly even my buddies in their sixties get hooked. I revisit on a packed Friday night, and meet an exuberant young couple, who (like TBB) symbolize the spirit of Mumbai. Miss Malini and her Mr, Nowshad Rizwanullah.They are a living example of Mumbai being the city which makes dreams come true (like it did for Big B). Having lived all over the world, Miss Malini moved to Mumbai 14 years ago, lived with six girls and a pigeon, worked as RJ, wrote scripts and then started blogging. Today, this digital princess's new age multi media brand for the internet generation straddles many media and has a huge national and international following. They make fashion, Bollywood, travel and food accessible. Miss Malini's dapper husband Nowshad, also moved to Mumbai, after having a global upbringing ( Harvard and Yale graduate) and now heads up the business and is the food reviewer.
They love Bombay Bronx, "True taste of mumbai masala. Happy and shiny".
Take a look at the photo and you'll see the exuberant couple hanging on to a local train's over-head handle. Before that we sat in an auto rickshaw but ended up eating and drinking at the Irani café area, just next to the bar. Mumbai, in all it's avatars, throbs in this 1800 sq ft area, Dabbawalas table, chor bazaar map on the ceiling, Eros cinema sign et al. A wall painting of a slouching Amitabh Bachchan blesses it all and sprinkles Mumbaiya magic dust as the Dj spins a mix of commercial and deep house music.
The colorful menu with it's "vez' and "non vez" sections, the "Kadak maal" booze menu offer many a Mumbaiya infused dish and drink. Newspaper cones with complimentry crunchy chakna (boiled peanuts, channa and more) set the tone for the street food that it is to follow. The spongy Gujju dhokla gets a crisp, deepfried cover and become a yummy, must try "dhoklapakoda". Flavorsome kheema with soft pao, the Kothambir wadi is yum and tenderfirm , succulent tandoori chicken wings too. Chicken farcha burgers , Spongy baby idlis dusted with molagapodi are worth trying as is the Iced Peru and Pani Puri caiproshka. Creative presentation, ( newspapers, mini carrom board et al).
Some of the cleverly named dishes don't live up to their name. Hard and overfried Krispee spinach, ditto for the Raju's chicken lollipops, Oily baida roti, Bland pav bhaji sandwis. While the tangy signature cocktails pair well with the spicy fare some of them are not spiked with enough alcohol. Some of the regular alcohol is not available (eg Old Monk). Welll informed waiters (with "Boss" written on their shirts) miss out on getting our "pijja" order and when the place gets crowded it's impossible to get "Boss s" attention.
It's exuberant and fun, much needed in the otherwise boring Breach Candy area (except for Ghetto and now Py). Some of it's finger food needs to be fine tuned, as do it's signature cocktails. The brand new Bombay Bronx is well-priced, lusty, ultramodern, clichéd, rustic, fun, exuberant and a host of other adjectives that don't normally squeeze together but find themselves in a tight, mostly happy clutch here. Tumko Jaane ko Maangta hai!
The Bombay Bronx Hubtown Skybay, Breach Candy (99677-01666). Daily 7pm-1am.
Nightout for 2: Rs 2000
I write from gorgeous Gulmurg and it's great to receive your twitter and instagram feedback here: @cityslicker (food nice esp dhokla pakoda, cocktails disappoint, overall fun, buzzing vibe, will return) @jayvasantlal (total fun place, yummy food, well priced drinks, will return) @brandedbawi (love the décor, drinks with a Bambaiya twist, excellent concepts of dhokla pakoda and farcha burger) @prioskauke (peru shots to die for, also masala fish fingers. Must go back) @netfreaknash (super dhokla pakodas and Bombay duck) @swathirishi (love the twist of the paneer dhokla) @bloodynerd (I like the Boss concept, though a little light should be put on their concept foods) @antarazandc (why fry an already perfect treat of steamed dhokla and add calories?) @ankitanarsey (finger food good, stale munchies except for bhujia sev inconsistent cocktails, not enough stock of Kingfisher ultra. @darrypars (peru and vodka go well together) @dinubhai23 (have farcha burger, pani puri caiproshka, fried masala sing ) @yutidalal ( Yum peru shot, kachi kairi with vodka) @romakripalani @almondmelon @kalpitabhosale thanks for your comments too.

If there is one thing we can be sure of as a civil society, it is that people struggling with mental illness do not belong in the general prison population, there to be used and abused by other inmates and for their conditions to deteriorate even further.
Yet, that is what New York State is doing. By deinstitutionalizing most of its mentally ill residents from inpatient facilities without providing a necessary community-based network of care, the state has left those people prey to the criminal justice system, which is not equipped to handle them, let alone provide a level of care that could help them improve.
It's been an issue in New York for decades and is becoming worse as the state takes away more and more treatment centers for the mentally ill. On Sunday, Buffalo News staff reporter Matthew Spina gave readers an intense look into the problems that victimize victims as well as their families.
Gregory J. Seifert provides one example. Diagnosed with bipolar disorder, schizophrenia and chronic paranoid schizophrenia, Seifert was arrested last year for taking a chain saw to wooden power poles in Orchard Park, compromising them enough that a windstorm toppled them and cut power to 6,300 customers. He had been in Lake Shore Health Care Center in Irving, but was released days earlier – against his doctor's advice. Insurance on his inpatient care had expired.
He was arrested for cutting the poles and sent to jail. There, he implied that he worked for the CIA, wrote threatening letters to people he knows, trashed his cell with food, removed his identification bracelet and tore up a T-shirt and wore parts of it as socks.
After nearly a year in jail, he started a fire by jamming a shower rod tipped with foil into a power outlet. For that, he was charged with second-degree arson, a felony that could land him in prison for 25 years.
After nearly 20 months in jail, a compassionate judge ruled that Seifert lacked the capacity to stand trial and ordered him into the custody of the state Office of Mental Health. He is now living at the Rochester Psychiatric Center, where his condition appears to be improving. If he improves sufficiently, he can stand trial for arson.
But would he have damaged the power poles if he had gotten the treatment he needed? Perhaps he wouldn't have ended up in jail. And if, instead of jail, he'd have been placed in a facility such as the Rochester Psychiatric Center, would his condition have stabilized enough that he wouldn't stand accused of starting a fire?
It's fair to surmise that Seifert would not be facing a life-destroying prison sentence if he had received the care he needed, and Seifert is not alone in being mauled by a health care system that didn't serve him and again by a criminal justice system that is not meant to.
It's going to get worse. Already, reliable estimates are that there are three times more mentally ill prison and jail inmates than there are mentally ill patients in hospitals across the country. In New York, more psychiatric centers are expected to close next year.
This system – if you can call it that – isn't working. Worse than not working, it is abusing some of the nation's and the state's most vulnerable people.
Prisons should not be warehouses for the mentally ill. New York needs a new way of confronting this problem. The first step is to apply the rule of holes: When you're in one, stop digging. The state shouldn't close more functioning psychiatric centers until it has found a better way of dealing with an issue that won't go away.

At this point we discovered Forever 21's return policy was exchange or store credit only. They refuse to return your money under any circumstances. The cashier said "its company policy" so I asked for the Manager who repeated the same thing not caring about taking care of her customers. I asked the manager for the District Managers name and number, after about 10 minutes she finally gave it to me. I called the District Manager, Eric, after a day of back and forth phone calls he said that they would not give back the money. It was only $10.56 but that is money my daughter can not use because the store didn't have anything else she wanted and doesn't have the money to take somewhere else.
I have been in retail management for a long time and I would never treat a customer like this. I have never heard of a retailer that was so desperate to keep (steal) your money. Not only will my daughter no shop there again but I am sure that she will tell her friends and every kid at her school will soon know about Forever 21's policies.
In addition I intend to let as many people as I can know why they should avoid Forever 21. I am not alone in this. If you search the internet you will find a lot of sites with people complaining about this company ripping them off.

Tub to Shower Conversions by Ohio Walk-in Showers
Tub converted to step / walk-in shower
Ohio seniors now have an affordable alternative for a safe, accessible step in shower. For most homeowners, the framework for a walk in shower already exists in their bathroom! Rather than tearing out and replacing the existing bathtub, our tub cut process utilizes the existing tub and converts it into a safe step-in shower. We achieve this by cutting and removing a section from the bathtub's front wall (apron). Into this void, we install our u-shaped acrylic step insert, thus providing a lower and safer threshold entry for the elderly senior. To view our process, just click here or on the short video to the right.
Advantages of our tub to shower changeovers include:
Our walk-in inserts complement most tubs, even bumped-out cast iron tubs
- Safer step-in heights.
- Non-slip stepping surface.
- Durable - our inserts won't chip & rust.
- Savings up to 80-90% (vs. bathtub remodel).
- One-day installations.
- Most tubs can be retrofitted.
- Safer & longer stays in your home.
- Peace of mind for the senior, their family & caregiver.
"As my mother's primary in-home caregiver, her tub to shower conversion was a godsend! Not only is she now a lot safer when showering, her checkbook is much happier with the money she saved." - Shelia B., Parma, OH
Call Jim now 440-667-8827 for a no-hassle estimate or to clarify any questions you may have. You'll discover why elderly and aging in place Ohioans are choosing our tub retrofitting services for their accessible showering needs. We serve the nearby communities and cities of Akron, Cleveland, Elyria/Lorain, Medina and Youngstown. Live outside our area? Go to our Contact Us Page and we'll put you in touch with an area installer.

Tomás O Sé: Dublin's Stephen Cluxton frustrated by Mayo tactics
Updated: Sunday, 30 Mar 2014 21:52 | Comments
Tomás O Sé says "frustration" led to Stephen Cluxton's kick on Kevin McLoughlin which saw the Dublin goalkeeper getting a straight red card against Mayo.
The former Kerry defender told RTÉ Sport that the All-Ireland-winning captain was unhappy that James Horan's men had come up with a tactic to disrupt the flow of possession from the 'keeper's restarts.
Of Cluxton's 28th-minute sending off, O Sé said: "It was a thing that happens in games, he lost the head for a split second. I've done it myself plenty of times, I know what it feels like.
"It wasn't anything malicious. I think Kevin McLoughlin just stopped a short kick-out. I think it came from a bit of frustration, his kick-outs weren't going as fluid all night.
"Mayo were squeezing up, it was something they did a bit of homework on from last year where in the second half [of the All-Ireland final] they fell down on in that regard.
"But this year they squeezed up and Stephen wasn't too happy with the way things were going and when Kevin tried to stop the quick one he just lashed out."
"It was just unfortunate; we all know that Stephen isn't a dirty player or a malicious player or anything like that."
While it looked as if the dismissal would cost Dublin the game, Jim Gavin introduced Eoghan O'Gara wo scored two late goals to rescue a point for the home side.
However, O Sé reckoned that league champions Dublin were under extra pressure after going down to 14 men.
He added: "It put Dublin under pressure and [substitute goalkeeper Sean] Currie was under pressure in the second half, a couple of kick-outs went over the line and giving a goal away from another one and a lot of them were up for grabs.
"Dublin, 90 per cent of their game is from Cluxton's kick-outs and making sure of possession so he was definitely a loss."
