People and their Piles: India
Chinese Giant Salamander – a tasty treat!
Pickles Sr, my China-based pa, recently stumbled across this classic headline in the CAAC Inflight Magazine. The CAAC, of course, is the government organ that's tasked with enforcing "the unified supervision and regulation on the civil aviation activities of the whole country." Glad that they're promoting such tasty treats! Now if only the inflight meal had been as interesting (or even as identifiable) as this.
Korea's Dunkin' Donuts Ruins All the Fun
Imagine a future where donuts come in horrid flavors: carrot, tofu, spinach. Now recognize that the future clearly lives in Korea. Now imagine how it could be worse…
Yep. In Korea, they've introduced the Broccoli Donut.

Mao & Mangoes, Together Again
I recently had the opportunity to sip hot black coffee with a high ranking Pakistani official, and while everyone else is talking Osama and war, we talked fruit.

Celebrating Easter in China…
When you're in a country that doesn't officially celebrate Easter, like China, sometimes you get nervous. Will the Easter Bunny get his visa yanked at the last-minute? Are you sure those chocolate eggs are melamine-free? Is the holiday even legal here?
Well, we had those same concerns too, but finally decided China's gonna love Easter!
Good Friday
First, start your Easter right, with a large order of "Holy Fries" for Good Friday. Weren't chips Jesus' favorite snack? Even if they weren't, they'll go great with your Friday fish.

Lucky Fruit (and Ain't So Lucky Fish)
Yesterday, these little nectarines showed up at the market. Dyed (branded? scalded? waxed? greased up with dirty stinking chemicals?) with Chinese characters, they read tall (高), shining (照), a thing (事) and happiness (喜).
"No, no, no," said Echo, a good friend. "You've bought the wrong ones, and got them in the wrong order. They should read '吉星高照,' which means 'good luck.' It's an idiom." (The ones I ended up with, ordered as below, read something like "tall photograph of a happy thing.")
"Or maybe they're trying to say '喜事高照,'" she mused. "It's not so correct but it'd still make sense."

Fish Heads in the Hutongs
Walking through Beijing, I'm never sure whether things are to be thrown away, or if they're the meal being prepared.
Soy Sauce Kit Kats (and other awesome flavors)
I was a little confused about the Tokyo airport when I flew through there a few weeks ago. It seemed so… rundown. Ceiling tiles missing, chairs blocking entrances, stores closed. And then I saw this sign. Uh-oh. What had I missed during my media blockout?
Turns out the third reactor was about to go, so I did what any slightly-nervous very-jetlagged consumer might do. I bought Kit Kats. Lots of them.
You probably already know that Kit Kats are the lucky treat in Japan. The local name for them, kitto katto, sounds an awful lot like the pre-exam expression of goodwill, "kitto katsu," which means "win without fail." (Sweep the leg, Johnny!) So they've got a lot of them. Before every exam, everyone gives out kit kats. Woo tells me there are 80 200 different flavors.
Sadly, Narita only had six. But I bought them all.

Blood Hair Strength Stew
When they heard I'd never tried 毛血旺 (maoxuewang) Stew, my coworkers were horrified. Absolutely aghast. "What, you have to try it! You'd love it! It's my favorite dish," said Ginger. "In English, it means 'Blood Hair Strength.'" Oh, I knew I'd like this.

Medicinal Sea Horse Soup
I adore TCM. But I don't know what to say about this bowl of "Pigeon Soup with Chinese Medicine" we ordered last night at Gongti's Xuxian Lou (许仙楼的《川弓海马乳鸽汤》). Yep, that's a sea horse floating on top.

Now this is what I call appealing….!
Eating a Whole Roast Suckling Pig
It wasn't as mouth-shockingly good as we'd hoped… but then again, this little guy looks pretty evil, too. Found at Tang Jai Yoo in Bangkok's Chinatown.
Kyrgyzstan things
In China, I adore the "foreign" vs "domestic" duality. I'm not sure that it's any more skewed than our own is, but it's definitely different. My girlfriend, for example, is a Bostonian, several generations back. But because she looks Chinese (and, three generations ago, her family was), here she's Chinese. Just speaks her native tongue really poorly.
Meanwhile, the foreign is so confusing. In a village I spend time in, there's a foreigner everyone knows as "The Thai." He's not actually from Thailand, but he's lived there. And, unlike the country he actually comes from, the villagers know where Thailand is, and how to say it.
In that vein, here's an ad for Kyrgyzstani churros I found in Tianjin this weekend. Presumably Mexico is too far, too foreign (maybe even unknown?) in Tianjin.
(Are churros even Mexican? Maybe they're from Sacramento, or Kyrgyzstan, and the joke's on me!)
Pig Faces, Hong Kong
I found these little puppies while looking for the Tak Fat beef ball stall, in the back of the Haiphong Road Temporary Muslim Market. Loved the simplicity with which they hung there (and desperately wanted to wear one as a mask.)
Deep Fried Little Fishies
All the upscale restaurants I've been to in Hong Kong love giving you this gratis (well, gratis until the bill comes… maybe "unannounced"?) bowl of deep fried fishies and peanuts. And OMG, fantasticness.
This bowl comes from Fu Sing Restaurant, and showed up on the bill included in an HK$18 add-on. "$18? What's this for?" I asked the waiter. He looked around the table. "Sauces, peanuts, tea." "But I didn't have any sauces or tea." "Water." Hrm.
I love this emptied bowl with just a few eyes left over…
Fish Head in Hong Kong
I'm generally an adventurous eater, but this time… well… I was frankly completely unable to handle this.
I didn't even know where to start! The waiters here, at Lok Sau Sun (1-5 Takshing Road, Hong Hong), didn't speak enough English for me to communicate my questions, so I ended up fudging it, and prowling the restaurant for wifi. Finally I found a google result: "how to eat fish head."
I didn't enjoy it. A few bites (maybe it was the brain? the cheek?) were great, but I was still disgusted. I picked what meat I could from the bones, fighting nausea, and really had to struggle.
A Surprise at Dinner
A Tray of Trotters
The Most Divine Piece of Sushi
This was something I've never seen before. I found it in Hakone, a small mountain town. (Across the road from 7-11. Sliding slat door, with no windows.) Maybe the roll was called Namaji Rasu, and maybe it's called Shirasu. But either way, it was incredible, deliciously sweet, and so unbelievably weird.
Tiny fishies, with big eyes, piled into a rolled piece of nigiri. So entirely straight-from-Star-Wars, and so one-of-a-kind. The chef handed it to me unexpectedly, after he discovered I wasn't a Russian.
Hunting French Maids in Tokyo
Fashion: Pink is everywhere, lace is everywhere, it's the Lolita look.
But the real style de saison is dressing like a 19th Century French Maid. It's weird, but it's everywhere! Even white girls are buying in!

It also called on Theresa May to clamp down on internal disputes to limit the "turf wars" that would be fought over ownership of Brexit policy.
"The current position of the outside world trying to divine the Government's position from the personal musings of individual ministers is creating unhelpful uncertainty – frustrating those looking for an early exit, perplexing those with whom we have to negotiate, and unsettling those looking to do business with the UK."
The report also estimates the potential cost of negotiating Brexit, and says another 520 staff will need to be recruited across the trade and Brexit departments at the cost of £65 million a year.
MP and Patron of Vote Leave Watch Tom Brake said the claims exposed the "chaos and infighting at the heart of Government" over Brexit planning.
"There are no prizes for guessing where this £65 million is going to come from; it'll come from the budgets for the NHS and other vital public services, which Leave campaigners promised would benefit from Brexit," Brake said.
"The government needs to get its act together, be open with the public, and deliver a progressive Brexit deal which protects working people and keeps Britain an open country."

Week Four in MLS happens to fall on one of what seems to be one of FIFA's 44 International Windows. You may be of the opinion that MLS needs to not schedule matches during these numerous and several weeks out of the year. Of course, if you hold that opinion, you probably overlook the fact that most of the match days are no longer filled with actual qualifying and tournament games and more often than not, pointless friendly matches where injuries tend to rack up and players are subjected to inordinate amounts of travel on top of their league & cup travel & matches. All the while, FIFA & the Confederations vacuum up money to subsidize the open and wanton corruption of FIFA operatives and those of it's Confederations and the National Federations.
Congratulations, Sucka.
Nevertheless, MLS Season 20 will march happily along with a full slate of 10 matches, sans about 60 players on international duty. While there may be some dip in quality for some clubs, what will be on display how well managers can deal with these absences and a chance to shine for some players who rarely get more than a garbage minute or two at the end of a lost cause match. And if you think only MLS managers have to deal with this FIFA/USSF manufactured problem, may I remind you that UEFA teams regularly lose scores of players during the AFCON tournament, and they seem to be able to deal with it. So, there it is. Now, on with Week 20:
New England vs. San Jose - 03/28/2015 - 3:00 ET
I'm not sure if New England knows if the season has started or not with 3 matches in and only a single point registered. Meanwhile San Jose has started surprisingly well at 2-1-0 and six points. If the Revolution can get their wounded back on the field, they might be able to scrape out a draw, otherwise, San Jose has proven they can win on the road in a tough environment and will likely do so again.
San Jose 2 | 0 New England. Watchable, but hardly entertaining.
Montreal Impact vs. Orlando City - 03/28/2015 - 4:00 ET
Both clubs will be missing a lot of players through both injury & international duty, but Montreal is likely to miss Justin Mapp more than Orlando will miss anyone from their roster. Prior to is elbow injury, Mapp was making Montreal look effective in CONCACAF play and he's going to be sorely missed. Orlando is coming off a horrible loss to Vancouver when they were trying to kill off the game for a point, and it bit them. I expect them to play hard for the win and accept a draw if they aren't leading by the 80th.
Montreal 0 | 1 OCSC. Watchable, but only barely as scoring will be at a premium.
New York City FC vs. Sporting Kansas City - 03/28/2015 - 7:00 ET
So far, NYCFC has been overall a solid team, drawing both road matches and looking dominant at home. They should continue that this week against Sporting, who have looked all the part of the Western Conference bottom dwellers they are. NYCFC runs away with this game.
NYCFC 3 | 0 SKC. Very watchable with Villa running the show.
Columbus Crew SC vs. New York Red Bull - 03/28/2015 - 7:30 ET
Admittedly, I've seen almost nothing out of Columbus so far, thanks to the Dynamo's blackout overage and my general distaste for watching the Crew. Red Bull, what I have seen of them has been solid, but unspectacular. At best, I expect a 0-0 or 1-1 draw with one club salvaging a point late.
CCSC 0 | 0 NYRB. All in all, a match to avoid.
Vancouver Whitecaps vs. Portland Timbers - 03/28/2015 - 8:00 ET
Vancouver, even with the players gone from suspension and international duty, should and let me stress this should have no trouble with a toothless Portland team. There will be tons of speed on display and probably more than a few tackles that will deserve Disciplinary Committee review on Monday, but Vancouver has the better goalkeeping and Portland can't score.
VAN 2 | 0 PTFC. Watchable, if you like Flying Circus defending and blown breakaways.
Houston Dynamo vs. Colorado Rapids - 03/28/2015 - 8:30 ET
The best thing I can say about this game is that Dallas vs. Seattle is on at the same time, (God, that feels so dirty to say...) so you can totally avoid this game. Houston at home, should win, but will find a way to only get a point out of Colorado who will be looking to wrestle last place in the Western Conference from the clutches of Sporting KC.
Houston 0 | 0 Colorado. Avoid like you would the child of an anti-vaxxer.
FC Dallas vs. Seattle Sounders FC - 03/28/2015 - 8:30 ET
Both clubs will have their depth challenged with Seattle missing Marco Pappa and Clint Dempsey. Oba Martins still has the ability to carry them with some offense, but it's likely too much of a load for just him and their midfield & back line are suspect. Dallas will be missing a lot of their offensive punch, but Oscar Pareja, who along with Jason Kries should be on the call list to replace Jurgen Klinsmann, has Dallas playing fast, hard and deliberate soccer.
FC Dallas 2 | 1 Sounders FC. Consider this match your gift for suffering through some of the opening acts on the schedule.
Chicago (Dumpster) Fire vs. Philadelphia Union - 03/29/2015 - 5:00 ET
Chicago will be without two of their three designated players, which may be a blessing in disguise and both of them look unprepared for MLS. Philadelphia is a poor, poor team, but they are light years ahead of the Chicago (Dumpster) Fire in team cohesion and morale. Yallop lost this team at the end of last season and did nothing in the off season to get it back. Chicago finds a way to lose to a hapless Union, bank it.
Chicago (Dumpster) Fire 0 | 2 Union. Take a nap, Yallop will be.
Real Salt Lake vs. Toronto FC - 03/29/2015 - 7:00 ET
It's hard to get a feel for this game other than a match that might see a breakout bench player, play the hero, for on club or the other. TFC will be missing their midfield general and striker & RSL will be missing their rock on defense in Nick Rimando. I give the edge to TFC finding a way through for all 3 points after a bevy of missed shots.
RSL 1 | 2 TFC. May be worth watching, you'll have to take the risk.
And as always, if you find yourself unable to watch, join us down in the MLS Week 4 PBP thread on BigSoccer for your weekly dose of sarcasm and use it as a place to display your moribund disgust with your team. Or maybe that's just me. But hey, you don't likely have anything better to do with your life.

Finally. I've missed out on the last two opportunities to meet with Edwin and Matthew so needless to say, I was looking forward to this. I've spoke with quite a few people over the last few years about Steed and decided last year that I wanted to give them a shot.There was a recent discussion about traveling to see tailors (Unfunded Liabilities thread?) and how some people thought it was crazy. Well, I woke up at 0430 in the morning and drove 275 miles (one way) to see them....so I guess I'm insane.@Mr. Six
and I decided to book our appointments together so he could snap some shots for this thread. I also thought it would be nice to have someone there who has worked with them quite a bit. When we walked in, I had no idea what I was going to do; MTM, bespoke, jacket, suit, fabric....no clue. I don't need a bespoke jacket (let's face it, no one does), but I've always wanted to experience the process. Then there's all this talk of how a bespoke jacket feels on your shoulders and hugs your neck....I want bespoke jacket hugs. I decided bespoke jacket hugs is what I would get.I browsed through the swatch books while Six was trying on his latest suit (very nice) for Matthew and Edwin. Eventually, I found this dark green cloth from W. Bill with a super soft hand and a nice light weight. I always gravitate to heavier cloths, but it doesn't make much sense in CA and I wanted something I could wear all the time...they say you should get something with max versatility on your first bespoke commission. In my opinion, you can wear a green jacket damn near as much as you could a navy...I'm sure some will disagree. I don't care...it's going to be awesome and at 10oz, I can wear it year round.From there, Edwin measured me in what seemed like no time. Just like you would expect a guy with the amount of experience he has. At one point he takes a step back, stares for a couple seconds, comes back grabs my shoulders and says, "forward, square, drop left, prominent right scapula"...spot on of course and the reason I can only wear soft tailored RTW. Matthew jotted down his notes and then Edwin finished up with some profile pictures. That was it.After that, we chatted about football a bit...the kind you actually play with your feet. They are Gooners but hey, we all make a terrible decision or two in our lives. We also got to hear some great stories about Edwin's days with Anderson & Sheppard and Edward Sexton, which Six and I really enjoyed. Great guys the both of them. Really great guys.We left the hotel around noon and headed to meetup with @brillopad
, @UrbanComposition
, @sacafotos
, and @Salad
. A few others hoped to be there, but had to bail (@sugarbutch
). We had some pretty good Italian food and then headed over to Tailors Keep to check out their spot. After seeing how UC's Fox oatmeal flannels turned out, I was really excited to check them out. UC introduced us to Erik who showed us around their existing spot and the new (much nicer) location they will soon be operating out of, which is just a couple doors down. Urban's trousers were on site being pressed so we got to see and feel the construction and quality of their bespoke work. I had already seen the impressive fit they achieved and was equally impressed with the construction. One thing that stood out was the style of the front pockets. They are cut and sewn much like rear pockets and not attached at the side seam...if I'm not making any sense (likely), see picture. I can't recall ever seeing front pockets cut in that way...Erik said it's for comfort and assists in eliminating pocket flare. I didn't care for the look all that much, but I would have to try them on to really see how I feel. Either way, they looked great overall and I would gladly wear them...especially given their pricing.
We grabbed a couple drinks after the TK visit and we're supposed to meetup for dinner with @Andy57
and Steed, but I'm recovering from surgery and wasn't doing to great. Unfortunately, I had to cut it short and speed home to some medication...can't take that stuff and drive!post #66 of 1012/17/16 at 6:41am

The only thing that cannon is going to blow up is the rest of the league's title hopes this year! Come on you Gunners!
(Truth be told, I fully expect for us to reach peak Arsenal shortly, whereby we raise expectations and get excruciatingly close to winning, just in time to throw it all away in an incredibly improbable fashion...)post #73 of 1012/17/16 at 7:55am

We missed you in the evening, Murl. I hope you're feeling better and have recovered from that long trek...which you can look forward to making again in June, and October, and...
My appointment was at 6pm. By some confusion, (perhaps he'll jump in to this thread, too), my appointment, which was supposed to be after @justinkapur's, was before his. I feel bad that he had to wait while I went through my stuff. During my appointment, a crew from a new web site in SF called Unbound Travel was shooting video of the fitting process, interviewing Edwin and Matthew (and me, too), and shooting stills. That was quite fun.
After Justin's appointment was complete, Edwin, Matthew, and I grabbed a quick bite of dinner in the Top of the Mark. It's always fun to hang out with those guys and get them telling tailoring stories. Apart from the pleasure of their company, I always learn something. Monday was no exception!
I hope your jacket turns out well for you. I'm sure it will.post #74 of 1012/17/16 at 8:20ampost #75 of 1012/17/16 at 8:32amThread Starter

Proceedings of the 24th International Conference on Efficiency, Cost, Optimization, Simulation and Environmental Impact of Energy Systems, ECOS 2011 | Year: 2011
In recent years, there has been a worldwide focus on the issue of energy because of increased energy prices and the threat of increasing global warming. Furthermore, industries are facing greater competition as a result of increasing globalisation, which is forcing companies to reduce their expenses. Reducing the use of energy is therefore an essential task for the future as it has a positive impact on both the environment and the profits of any business. Reductions in energy demand can be accomplished by different means, such as investments in energy-efficient processes or load management. Analytical tools may be used to support the decision-making process, when choosing between a number of measures, and analysing the results can help to choose which changes should be made. This paper studies two types of energy analysis tool: energy systems optimisation (ESO) and discrete event simulation (DES). The aim of this paper is to describe a method where a DES and an ESO tool are combined in order to study the potential energy and resource reduction in complex industrial energy systems. A case study representing a part of a dairy is also included to illustrate the use of the method. The system modelled includes a process where the durability or longevity of milk increases from a few days to 28 days by using steam injection. The results from the case study show that the dairy has much higher potential production capacity than realised today. This also means that there is a potential to reduce the operation hours from a three-shift to a two-shift operation to meet the existing weekly demand. The analysis also shows that there are large potential reductions in both energy and other resources. The largest potential reductions are primarily from electricity and water. The combination of tools increases the reliability of the analysis and facilitates decision making in an industrial site. Source

The fracture mechanism of gray cast iron was investigated on tension loaded samples produced under different conditions. The parameters studied included the graphite morphology, the carbon content, the inoculation and the cooling condition. The observations made reveal the role of the microstructure on crack propagation. The cracks were found to always propagate parallel with the graphite flakes. The interaction between the metallic matrix precipitated as primary austenite and graphite has been interpreted by a simplified model of the austenite reinforced eutectic cell. The geometrical transcription gave a standard crack component configuration with known mathematical solution. The microstructure observed in the experiments has been analysed by means of a novel interpretation. The fictitious stress intensity at yield and the fictitious maximum stress intensity at failure are strongly related to the relative shape of the eutectic cell and the fraction primary austenite. A different slope is observed for the material cooled at high rate when the precipitation of primary carbide reduces the stress intensity. The observed relations indicate that the tensile strength of the grey cast iron is the result of the collaboration between the toughness of the metallic matrix precipitated as primary austenite and the brittleness of the graphite phase. The shape and distribution of the primary austenite and graphite can be influenced by chemical composition, by inoculation or by the cooling condition, but they will maintain equilibrium with respect to the stress intensity. © (2010) Trans Tech Publications.

Significant progress has been made in recent years in understanding and modelling the rheology of semi-solid metals. These models show the effects of the microstructure in terms of size and morphology of globules on the material response. More recently it has been shown that semi-solid metals can behave as compacted granular materials such as sand. A particular signature of such deformation is that the deformation becomes concentrated into shear bands which are 10-20 grains wide. Such bands have also been observed in a range of cast products. Recently, it has been clearly shown that shear bands in high pressure die cast (HPDC) products are also the results of Reynolds dilatancy. Shear bands are also known to be a common feature in semi-solid metal products. The segregation banding in semi-solid metal (SSM) material and its dependence of plunger velocity were investigated. Shaped castings were made with the RHEOMETAL™ process with a range of different plunger velocities. The microstructural characteristics were investigated, with a particular emphasis on shear bands. It is shown that ingate velocities influence the location and characteristics of the shear bands. © 2010 The Nonferrous Metals Society of China. Source

In this experimental study, six pearlitic grey cast irons with different Cu and Cr content, different section thicknesses and different eutectoid cooling rates have been examined. The eutectoid cooling rate was approximated by casting simulation analysis. The purpose of the experiments was to study the effect of the matrix structure on the overall mechanical properties. An emphasis is put on the pearlite interlamellar spacing because this controls the resulting mechanical properties to a large extent. By keeping the graphite structure constant, the effect of the matrix structure was able to be studied. This was achieved by shake-out at temperatures above the eutectoid transformation range followed by subsequent cooling in air, mould or in a furnace. The pearlite interlamellar spacing ranged from 90 to 330 nm for the matrices studied. Comparing the strength of the fine structured and coarse structured materials, the tensile and yield strength was reduced by almost 50%. Regarding the elastic deformation, a weak increase in the tangent modulus with increasing alloying content was observed. It was also observed that lower cooling rate decreased the tangent modulus. The tangent modulus ranged between 70 and 110 GPa. Analysing the plastic deformation of the materials, in terms of strain hardening exponent, n, and strength coefficient, K, a strong dependence on the pearlite coarseness was observed. It was concluded that the effect of graphite particle length on tensile strength was negligible and the major improvement on the strength was due to refinement of the pearlite. Source
The effect of cooling rate, section size and alloying on matrix structure formation in pearlitic grey cast iron

Key Engineering Materials | Year: 2011
The matrix structure formation of cast irons is strongly affected by the casting process where different alloying elements and cooling conditions are methods used to achieve the desired structure and performance of the material. In the presented study, six pearlitic grey cast irons have been analysed regarding how the pearlitic structure formation might be controlled. Different amounts of copper and chromium were added, ranging from 0.07 to 1.11 wt% and 0.08 to 0.60 wt%, respectively. Three different section sizes (Ø20, Ø45 and Ø85 mm) and three different cooling conditions through the eutectoid transformation were used to control the matrix structure formation. The three different cooling conditions were achieved by shake-out at 950°C and cooling in air or furnace, or by keeping the casting in the mould. The present paper focuses on the pearlite appearance, since it strongly affects the mechanical properties. The analysis shows that the refining effect of Cr is much stronger than that of Cu. Comparing the low alloyed base melt with the ones alloyed with Cu and Cr, it is seen that additions of 0.75 wt% Cu refines the pearlite by approximately 10%. Keeping this Cu level constant and adding Cr, it is observed that an addition of ∼0.6 wt% refines the pearlite by another 20%. The most potent refining effect of Cr is achieved by additions up to 0.35 wt%. Keeping the Cr constant at 0.35% and changing the Cu content (0.35 to 1.10 wt%), almost no variation is observed in the overall interlamellar spacing. The eutectoid cooling rate most strongly affects the interlamellar spacing down to cooling rates of about -0.75 °C/s. At higher (i.e. lower value) cooling rates the interlamellar spacing is fairly constant. In addition to studying the interlamellar spacing, the graphite structure has also been analysed and evaluated concerning effects from the different casting variables. Source

Portable Wheelchair Ramps
There are various areas of wheelchair mobility but one of the biggest is portable wheelchair ramps. A wheelchair ramp enables someone in a wheelchair to get into and out of their house whilst staying in their wheelchair. Wheelchair ramps can also offer wheelchair mobility throughout the rest of the house too.
Wheelcair Mobility
NRS Healthcare sells portable wheelchair ramps to help people when they are out of the house. Portable ramps can be used when on holiday, staying at a friend's house or anywhere else they might be required. Some of the portable wheelchair ramps fold up whilst other portable ramps can be rolled up and carried in a handy bag which can be hung on the back of the wheelchair.
Portable wheelchair ramps make it much easier to get past obstacles and let people in wheelchairs get to places and see things which they wouldn't otherwise be able to see.

"Explore historic Hoi An." Vietnam Things to Do Tip by worldkiwi
Vietnam Things to Do: 751 reviews and 1,162 photos
Hoi An is a remarkable little town with UNESCO World Heritage status, in central Vietnam. The old town centre has been carefully protected and is a well presented and enjoyable place to wander on foot during the daytime and early evening. To enhance this little place even further, motorised vehicles are limited to a few hours each day in the town centre.
I really loved this little town and the somewhat overused adjective "charming" is, in this case, very aptly added to any description of Hoi An. I thoroughly recommend this town and have to say it was one of my favourite spots in the entire country. See my Hoi An page for more photos and info.

There is no doubt Lake Weir is overdue, way overdue, for some additional boat ramps and recreational facilities. And there's even less doubt the taxpayers want them both - like, yesterday.
Nonetheless, the Marion County Commission acted prudently Tuesday by holding off just a while longer on building new boat ramps so an in-depth engineering and environmental study can be conducted to assess what's best for the county's largest lake over the next couple of decades.
Commissioners, to a man, agreed the issue of new boat ramps on the shores of Lake Weir has been bandied about to the point of weariness. Besides, funding for the ramps has already been approved.
But Clark Yandle, chairman of the county Parks and Environmental Lands Acquisition Advisory Committee, made a poignant argument for spending about $150,000 to assess long-term human and environmental pressures on the lake as well as developing a strategy for expanding recreational access to its waters and its shores for years to come.
In the end, Yandle's strong conviction and common-sense viewpoint convinced the commission to pursue the study. In short, he said the money spent would be pocket change for the county in the long run, but ensuring a vibrant Lake Weir for generations yet unborn is priceless.
Yandle rightly pointed out that Lake Weir is too important as a natural resource and a recreational asset to not examine its health and its limitations before developing more park and recreation facilities that will, surely, attract more people. The study would look at surrounding areas to determine what developmental pressures are likely to impact the lake and study the geographic dynamics that are critical in developing waterfront lands.
Both PELAAC and the commission have indicated the time has come to capitalize on more of the 700-acre Carney Island property by adding boat ramps, swimming areas, trails and more. It is a vision we have no doubt is welcomed by the public, as it is by us.
But Yandle and PELAAC gave the commission wise counsel by recommending that we know all we can about Lake Weir before bringing in the bulldozers. Years of drought and increasing use by boaters and fishermen have left the lake already fragile and strained. Yet, that's not to say with better lake management and recreational oversight that it couldn't handle more use - it just has to be the right kind of use and controlled.
With Hope Beach's boat ramp virtually useless due to the low lake level and Hampton Beach clogged because it has the only operational boat ramps on Lake Weir, there needs to be more ramps, sooner than later. But PELAAC, and now the commission, is looking at Lake Weir the way it needs to be looked upon - as a irreplaceable public treasure that can bring years of joy and pleasure to our community, if it is treated with reason and respect.
The study approved Tuesday by the County Commission hopefully will give the county some clear guidance on just how to do that so Lake Weir will remain a place where Marion Countians can swim and boat and play tomorrow, next year, 20 years from now.
Looking at Lake Weir long-term
There is no doubt Lake Weir is overdue, way overdue, for some additional boat ramps and recreational facilities. And there's even less doubt the taxpayers want them both - like, yesterday.

I bought the same pair but with pink on the instead of coral, absolutely love them so much to say they were my favourite pair of shoes!! These ones (coral) are tighter then the others and am hoping they stretch a little in time, but would say they're not as comfortable as my others.

GLO Dance kicks off for 2016 with one GLO's favourite bands TIJUANA CARTEL!!! Bringing their infectious gypsy caravan blend of flamenco guitars and super funky beats. Since playing GLO in the early days TIJUANA CARTEL have shot to national and international fame with their genre defying dance floor sound and mystifying virtuoso guitar playing. It is a super treat to have them back playing for us at GLO, and this is definitely one not to miss!!!
As the corner stone of Australia's 'east meets west' electronic scene, TIJUANA CARTEL have a knack for blending layers of rich, intricate atmospheric soundscapes with laid back rhythms and luscious vocals to form an electronic beats tapestry that will cut through to your very soul.
Simply, there isn't another band doing what they do. Having spent the last decade mixing in influences that haven't been fused in the past, their penchant is for Middle Eastern scales, beats that get a floor moving and a general Psychedelic approach in song structure and ethos.
On stage is where TIJUANA CARTEL's collective musical spirit is really given the chance to run wild. Joined by Sheila Finke on Percussion and Eamon Dilworth on Trumpet, they extensively tour Australia stopping off at all of the major cities regularly, as well as small towns and the most loved festivals including Peats Ridge, Rainbow Serpent, Wave Rock, Splendour In The Grass, Byron Bay Blues and roots, Falls, Shine On, Good Vibrations, Surry Hills Festival and Lane Way amongst others. They also tour across Europe and USA when the stars align.
The line up also features fresh DJ set from Byron shire favourite DJ POB. So be ready to dance every bone in your body.
This GLO also marks the start of new custodianship of the event, with Pip O'Brien taking over managing GLO. This is such exciting news as Pip has a great energy and is all set to keep the amazing music and inspired dance floor continuing strong at Uki Hall.
Chai, Cakes and Herbal Elixir available.
See You On The Dance Floor.
Love Hamilton & Pip

GLO Dance is back at the Uki Hall for the November full moon! With International cult 10 piece big band THE BOMBAY ROYALE plus the infectious global grooves of DJ Dancing Tiger. This will be a super fun night of dance not to miss!!!
THE BOMBAY ROYALE, are a 10-piece BIG BAND dedicated to honouring and reviving the funky, bizarre and mysterious music of vintage Indian films. The resulting sound is a rich palette of classic cinema, from lonesome spaghetti to surf-rock, from psychedelia to spine-bending space disco, overlaid with the voices of protagonists The Tiger and The Mysterious Lady.
They immediately shot to international recognition with performances at the coveted WOMAD festivals in Australia, UK and New Zealand as well Glastonbury festival and Global Fest New Yourk to mention a few. Their debut album 'You Me Bullets Love' won a place in the iTunes best of 2012 and was #1 on the iTunes World Music Charts. http://thebombayroyale.com
It is really exciting to have an act of this caliber come play for us at GLO at Uki Hall!
The night will also feature sets before and after by DJ Dancing Tiger. Hamilton is just back from a 3 month tour of transformational festivals in the U.S. and brings some amazing new music to his sets.

I'll admit that gas appliances have always made me nervous. There's something about open flames and volatile natural gas that seem like the perfect ingredients for fiery mishaps.

One of the most frightening images of the recent Presidential election was a man at a political rally in Minneapolis wearing a t-shirt that read "Rope- Tree- Journalist- Some Assembly Required." It is obvious he either has no knowledge of history or doesn't care about it. History teaches us that the first targets of a military coup, whether in Africa or South America, are the radio and television stations, and the newspapers. Those seeking to overthrow a government seek to control the dissemination of the truth to the masses.

Oates Quotes Crane
Published: April 19, 1990
To the Editor:
Michiko Kakutani's review praises Joyce Carol Oates's latest novel, ''Because It Is Bitter, and Because It Is My Heart'' (March 30), but cautions the reader not to be ''put off by the awkward title.'' The title is composed of the two final lines of an untitled poem by Stephen Crane known by its first line, ''In the desert.'' It is in ''The Black Riders and Other Lines'' (1985).
In the poem, ''a creature, naked bestial,'' squats in the desert, eating his own heart. The narrator asks, ''Is it good, friend?'' The poem ends:
'It is bitter - bitter,' he answered;
'But I like it
Because it is bitter,
And because it is my heart.'
Crane's startling language is an integral element of his poetic method, which also includes unsettling situations.
