The $37 billion budget presented by Mayor Rudolph Giuliani yesterday lays out a sound financial blueprint for New York City and a potential showcase for his campaign for the Senate. The budget combines targeted growth in spending, particularly for police and schools, with a call for limited tax cuts. For the first time in years, Mr. Giuliani has decided to forgo his ugly annual fight with the City Council over cutting funds to libraries and neighborhood cultural institutions. On the other hand, he has set himself up for a big battle with municipal unions over his demand for merit pay instead of across-the-board wage increases.
In laying out his financial plans. Mr. Giuliani never once mentioned his tough Senate campaign against Hillary Rodham Clinton, but that race had to be very much on his mind as he repeatedly proclaimed his love of schools, the environment and children's services as well as fighting crime and cutting taxes. The mayor sensibly trimmed back his tax-cut package outlined in January, noting that bond rating agencies were worried about the deficits projected in future years.
There was a certain amount of overstatement in the budget presentation, of course. Mr. Giuliani projected an actual decline in spending for next year, but that was a result of shoving some of next year's expenses back into this year. In fact, spending and hiring are growing steadily. He also said he had not used one-shot revenues to plug the deficit. However, he is using $2 billion of this year's surplus to pay for next year's ongoing expenses. The surplus would more prudently be used for debt reduction or capital construction.
Mr. Giuliani issued a daunting challenge to the city's unions on merit pay, which he has previously won for principals and child welfare workers. Merit pay is a good idea, but only if there are safeguards against favoritism or corruption in managing the work force. Merit pay should also be coupled with greater demands for changes in work rules to improve productivity. The new budget lags in this area. For example, Mr. Giuliani has made little progress in replacing police officers in desk jobs with less expensive civilian workers.
The budget must now be approved by the City Council, where Speaker Peter Vallone has signaled a fight over the makeup of the tax cuts. Mr. Giuliani proposes to cut the personal income tax, which would benefit wealthiest taxpayers the most. Mr. Vallone may have a sounder approach in seeking tax cuts to help the working class and produce jobs. The speaker also questions whether another cut in the hotel tax is needed since hotels are at nearly full occupancy. The mayor might choose to be flexible on these issues, knowing that a smooth budget approval would be better for his campaign than more confrontations with the City Council.Continue reading the main story

Wireless EV Charger Created by US Startup
Given that we seem to be living in an increasing wireless world (anybody remember TV remotes with cords?) it seems only natural that one of the next steps is for EV car charging to go wireless.
We've already had a glimpse of this, notable at this year's New York Auto Show, where Infiniti's LE concept incorporated such a system, which consists of two coils (one mounted in the vehicle, the other in a pad on the garage floor) which create a magnetic field that stimulates the flow of electric current from the floor to the car).
Now, a North Carolina startup named Evatran is hoping to introduce such a system and indeed, has generated enough interest that a number of different organizations, including the likes of Google, Hertz Rent-A-Car, Duke Energy and Clemson University, are planning to test it later this year.
In addition, Sears has also said that it has signed on to be the official installer of Evatran's new system at home (the car portion will be handled by authorized auto dealers).
In Raleigh, North Carolina, plans are also underway to install cordless charging stations around the city to test the new system, though considering it's currently designed to work only with the Chevy Volt and Nissan LEAF, the City of Raleigh will be conducting tests using modified Toyota Prius Plug-In models, since it hasn't procured any Volts or LEAFs… yet.
Charlotte, N.C. based Duke Energy is planning to begin trials of the wireless system with an employ's Chevy Volt next month. Like many aspects of the auto industry, the concept of wireless charging is actually nothing new; induction technology that creates magnetic fields as been with us for over a century and is widely used in many different areas, such as electric tooth brushes and kitchen devices, as well as microphones and even generators. In fact, the Dodge Dart will be the first car to be capable of charging mobile devices wirelessly.
While the idea might seem simple and clearly the way forward because it eliminates the physical awkwardness of cords and reduces the risk of danger (no worrying about plugging or unplugging your car while its raining), there are still some obstacles.
The system can only currently be retrofitted to existing vehicles (though Evatran is reportedly working on proposals for factory installations), In addition it uses more energy than cord based setups and costs around 10 cents more to charge a vehicle (Evatran's R&D director Steve Raedy pegs the price at $1.45 versus $1.35 for a plug-in device).
Despite this and reported retail price of under $3,000 (still twice the price of many conventional re-chargers), Evatran's system appears to have a lot of potential; you might say it's a true 21st century "Flash of Genius."

Asghar Farhadi, A Separation, 2011, still from a color film in 35 mm, 123 minutes. Simin and Nader (Leila Hatami and Peyman Moadi).
DOMESTIC STRIFE becomes a cultural microcosm in Asghar Farhadi's beautifully crafted, impeccably acted film A Separation. An educated, middle-class couple files for separation. The wife, Simin (Leila Hatami), wants to leave Iran while her husband, Nader (Peyman Moadi), refuses to abandon his sick and helpless father, and their adolescent daughter, Termeh (Sarina Farhadi), is left torn between them. Amid the chaos of the separation, Nader hires Razieh (Sareh Bayat), a working-class woman and devout Muslim, partly to do housekeeping, but mainly to tend to his father's needs while he is at work. One day, he returns to find his father tied to the bed unconscious and Razieh nowhere in sight. Unaware that she left to see her gynecologist, he fires her on her return and accuses her of stealing some money he had left around unwittingly. When she protests and insists on being paid for the day, the enraged Nader pushes her out the door where she falls on the stairs and shortly after suffers a miscarriage.
The ensuing legal investigations—in which Nader is accused of murder and Razieh of criminal neglect—consume more than half the film. Each character's behavior comes under scrutiny, not only by court officials, but also by the other characters and, of course, the viewer. For example, our first impression of Razieh's unemployed, hot-tempered husband, Hodjat (Shahab Hosseini), from whom she has concealed her employment, makes us wonder if he played some role in her miscarriage. And though Nader seems sincere when he denies knowing that Razieh was pregnant, small clues hint otherwise. Fearful of Hodjat's threats of revenge, Simin suggests offering "blood money" as a way to settle the matter. Though at first resistant, Nader agrees to the idea, but no sooner does this seem the solution than another twist is introduced. Razieh tells Simin that "she has doubts" because on the day before the incident on the stairs, she was struck by a car while pursuing Nader's wandering father into the street, and experienced pains that very night. This makes her question her own culpability. Thus, when the couples meet to settle accounts with the "blood money" and Nader asks Razieh to swear on the Koran that he was responsible for her miscarriage, she hesitates. Convinced she will be violating her faith, she tells her husband the truth, after which he goes berserk.
Farhadi's camera—often, if not always handheld—follows the nuances and unexpected turns in the action with effortless grace and subtlety. Immersive but not intrusive, detached but not judgmental, it is the absolutely right stance to tell a story in which each disclosure prompts adjustment of the viewer's perspective, and in which truth and responsibility shift among the characters. This is not to say there is no narrative calculation. When Farhadi cuts away from Razieh in the street at the moment she spots Nader's father, he imposes an omniscient perspective that deprives us of critical information, a strategy less detectable elsewhere in the film. But, by withholding what occurred until Razieh reveals it later, he sustains the notion that everyone behaves at any one time in proportion to what is at stake.
The film is bookended by long takes of Simin and Nader. In the first shot, they sit next to each other facing the camera as an offscreen official hears their case. In the final shot, under the closing credits, each sits on either side of a glass partition in a corridor outside the room where their daughter decides with whom she will live. Apart from the deliberate framing of these shots—which also serve to frame the story within the legal and cultural forces of Iranian society—the camerawork is admirably self-effacing. Even its moves and plays with focus in the confined spaces of the couples' apartments and government offices are attuned to character behavior—open to the discoveries of the moment rather than staged as moral commentary.
Throughout the film, shots both of Termeh and of Razieh's daughter register the way children learn about the social structures that monitor the lives of those they thought omnipotent. The film's saddest moments involve the toll this knowledge takes, as in the scene when Nader finally admits to his daughter that he knew Razieh was pregnant, offering to confess if she wishes. While the ensuing crash of her fallen idol is barely discernible in her demeanor, it is no less devastating. But when she lies later to an official to defend her father, the shot of her tearstained face in the car afterward tells us her world has changed.
A Separation opens Friday, December 30, in New York and Los Angeles.

Gerald Appel developed the Moving Average Convergence Divergence indicator using three moving averages as a tool to approximate turning points in the market. The MACD is a popular trading tool despite the fact that it often gives false indications of turning points. It takes practice and judgment to use the indicator properly.
Things You'll Need
- Spreadsheet to calculate the MACD
Constructing the MACD
Compute two moving averages. Enter the last 26 days of closing prices in column one. Average the result in column two. For the next day drop the oldest date and add the newest. Compute the last 12 days of the moving average from column one and enter the result in column three. Subtract column two from column three. Enter the result in column 4. This is called the fast line of the MACD.
Take the result of the fast line and from it compute a nine day moving average. This is the trigger line. When the fast line and the trigger line converge a turning point is reached. Know that a turning point should confirm what the closing price action is already beginning to show--that a buy or sell signal is in place.
View the MACD as a histogram (see Resources for illustrations). The bars reflect closing prices. Use the zero line or center line to indicate whether either moving average is moving at a positive or negative rate. When the MACD rises above zero, the short-term average is above the long-term average, a signal of upward momentum. Use the center line as another indicator of price trend change.
Trade a security if there is divergence between the direction of the MACD and price. It is a sure sign (if the histogram is positive) that prices are preparing to fall. Wait, however until the histogram falls below the center line. Bullish signals occur when the divergence occurs when the histogram is negative.
Trade the MACD but realize it is a tool that is generally right but will give lagging signals of turning points. MACD gives signals three ways: when the histogram trades above or below the center line, when divergence occurs, and when the fast line and center line cross.
Tips & Warnings
- Never trade the MACD as a single indicator. Use a long term indicator such as a 50 day or 200 day moving average in order to reduce the number of whipsaws.
- Practice trade over a variety of market conditions before investing real money with the MACD.

An older building, but it is well maintaned and updated. The room was very big. Refrigerator, microwave, coffee maker, iron were great to have. The sink and countertop in the mainroom was nice when dealing with making coffee, making ourselves drinks and snacks. The big flatscreen tv has a good selection of channels. Full buffet breakfast was included. It was a little tricky to find, but is very good value.

|Happy Valentine's Day!
I have disappeared from Blogland, I have dismissed all of my followers on IG and turned my account private for my eyes only, have kinda lost my tongue and have become exeptionally silent, am ignoring my emails (if not the "job and family" ones for obvious reasons), I gently, but firmly, set aside all of the unnecessary things.
While from the outside it may seem my mind is completely in the clouds and I am totally disconnected, truth is I am totally connected, and I am experiencing a steep spiritual growth.
All I want to do, all I feel in my gut I have to do (mind you, I've finally come to really trust my gut so it's no discussion!) is shutting the doors of the external world, turn inwards and wait.
Instead of not doing anything these days (there wouldn't be any problem in that at all- on the contrary, I should practice more stillness just doing nothing, something I don't usually feel comfortable doing... ), I feel very energized yet very quiet, and even if I have no desire to interact with human beings on a material level, so to speak, I feel drawn to certain activities that are indeed very practical, but while doing them in silence, my mind wonders, my heart opens up, my soul expands widely.
After some attempts to "still" meditation and nearly falling asleep (shame on me!), I realized the best and most effective form of meditation for me is indeed active. I must move my hands, move my body, and the rest follows easily and effortlessly, and usually I gain momentum, spiritual energy and powerful epiphanies keep coming my way while doing so and soon afterwards. It's very similar to the monastic practice "ora et labora" from St. Benedict (pray while you work, or work while you pray, that is), who believed to combine contemplation with action. On a side note, I practice this type of meditation also while painting- very naturally, not that I concentrate trying to do so- and that's why I need a very silent and quiet environment when I work.
So- what am I doing these days?
Well, I'm cleaning my home (after a deadline, for how swift it may be, there is always mess around), reorganizing to make it easier to live and more comfortable, and tidying up some hot spots, especially after I've found the just perfect book I really needed at the charity shop last week, and I haven't put it down since ("Home Sanctuary, A practical guide to creating the perfect space for body and soul" by Josephine Collins ). I'm watching my sweet peas growing at the speed of light (put a big, beaming smile here), I'm cooking, daydreaming, letting my creative energy flow freely (I have no idea what I'm creating but I'm sure I am doing something that will manifest soon), picking snowdrops, finding great finds (like the Emma Bridgewater jug and two old, oval flower vases with wire and a matte glaze, the cream one in the pics above), reading, watching inspirational videos, filling my Gratitude Journals to the brim, and perusing my traditional country style books and old Victoria magazines (love).
While being patient...

Kebab (also kabob) are various Middle Eastern dishes originally based on grilled meat, and now with many variants. Two of the best-known kebab dishes are shish kebab and doner kebab.

In contemporary American and British English, a kebab is a common dish, consisting of a skewer with small pieces of meat or seafood, together with vegetables such as onions, tomatoes, and bell peppers. Also known as shish kebab or sometimes shashlik,[1][2][3] kebabs are customarily prepared in homes and restaurants, and are usually cooked on a grill or barbeque. The word kebab may also be used as a general term in English to describe any similar-looking skewered food, such as brochette, satay, souvlaki, yakitori, or numerous small chunks of any type of food served on a stick. This is different from its use in the Levant, where shish (Persian/Mazandarani: شیش, Turkish: şiş) is the word for skewer, while kebab comes from the Persian word for grilling.[4]
In English-speaking countries outside North America, the word kebab is also used generally to mean döner kebab,[2] or the related shawarma or gyros, or sandwiches made with them, available from kebab shops as fast food and take-away meals. Many layers of meat are stacked onto a large vertical rotating spit; the outer surface is gradually cooked and sliced off, and typically served as a sandwich in pita or flatbread with salad and sauces. In Germany, the highly popular sandwich, introduced by Turkish immigrants, is called a döner, though Arab shops serve shawarma.[5] In other countries in Europe and worldwide, the name used depends on the dish and on local customs.
In American English[6] and also in the languages throughout the cuisine of the Middle East and the Muslim world, kebab is a broad term covering a wide variety of grilled meat dishes in addition to the shish kebab and döner kebab familiar in the West.[4] Although often cooked on a skewer, many types of kebab are not.[7] Kebab dishes can consist of cut up or ground meat or seafood, sometimes with fruits and vegetables; cooked on a skewer over a fire, or like a hamburger on a grill, baked in a pan in an oven, or as a stew; and served with various accompaniments according to each recipe.
The traditional meat for kebab is mutton, but depending on local tastes and religious prohibitions, other meats may include beef, goat, chicken, fish, or, more rarely, pork.
Etymology and historyEdit
The practice of cooking meat on a stick or skewer originates in prehistorical times, possibly as long as a million years ago, when early humans began cooking with fire.[8] Dishes prepared in a similar way to kebab, with various cultural origins, include anticucho, espetada, satay, souvlaki, yakitori, and many others.
Excavations in Santorini, Greece, unearthed stone sets of barbecue for skewers used before the 17th century BC. In each pair of the supports, the receptions for the spits are found in absolute equivalence, while the line of small openings in the base formed a mechanism to supply the coals with oxygen so that they remained alight during its use.[9] Mycenaean Greeks used portable tray as grills. These trays were rectangular ceramic pans that sat underneath skewers of meat but it is not clear whether these trays would have been placed directly over a fire or if the pans would have held hot coals like a portable barbecue pit.[10][11] Homer in Ilad (1.465) mentions pieces of meat roasted on spits (οβελός).[12][13][14][15] In Classical Greece, a small spit or skewer was known as ὀβελίσκος (obeliskos),[16][17] and Aristophanes mentions such skewers being used to roast thrushes.[18]
The English word kebab comes from the Persian كَبَاب (kabāb), partly through Arabic and Turkish. According to Sevan Nişanyan, an etymologist of the Turkish language, the word kebab is derived from the Persian word "kabab" meaning "fry". The word was first mentioned in a Turkish script of Kyssa-i Yusuf in 1377, which is the oldest known Turkish source where kebab is mentioned as a food. However, he emphasizes that the word has the equivalent meaning of "frying/burning" with "kabābu" in the old Akkadian language, and "kbabā/כבבא" in Aramaic.[19] The American Heritage Dictionary also gives a probable East Semitic root origin with the meaning of "burn", "char", or "roast", from the Aramaic and Akkadian.[20] These words point to an origin in the prehistoric Proto-Afroasiatic language: *kab-, to burn or roast.[21]
Tradition has it that the dish was invented by medieval soldiers who used their swords to grill meat over open-field fires.[22][23] Persian kebab was served in the royal houses during various Islamic Empires and even commoners would enjoy it for breakfast with naan or pita.[24][25]
National varietiesEdit
|This section needs expansion. You can help by adding to it. (August 2014)
The Afghan variant of the kebab is the "kabab" (Pashto/Dari: کباب). Kebab's in Pakistan are originally from Afghanistan. The kebab's that are known to be Iranian are also Afghan, dating back to when they were one empire.
In the Republic of Azerbaijan, the main varieties include tika kabab, lyula kabab (doyma kabab in some places), tas kababy and tava kabab. The meat for tika kabab is sometimes prepared in basdirma (an onion gravy and thyme) and then goes onto the ramrods. It may be served, wrapped in lavash, with sauce-like pomegranate addon (narsharab) and other condiments.[citation needed]
In Bulgaria, the word кебап (kebap) is a generic term for meat stews with few or no vegetables. The döner kebab is widespread as fast food and is called дюнер (dyuner). Shish kebap / shashlik is also common, and is called шишче (shishche - "small skewer").[citation needed]
Ancient Hindu texts, such as Mahabharata, mention a dish made of marinated game meats roasted on large, open fires.[26] Modern day kebabs in India trace their origin to the influence of the Mughlai cuisine in India. Some varieties of kebab in India are more or less similar to other kebab preparations along with their distinct taste, which can be credited to the use of the Indian spices. Though there certain distinct versions like Tunde ke kabab, Tikka kebab, Shami kebab, Soovar ki Saanth (Pork belly kebabs from Rajasthan) and Rajpooti soolah, which are native to India. Also, owing to widespread prevalence of vegetarianism in India, there are many local, vegetarian varieties of Kebab, made from Paneer or potato.
All the varieties such as sheesh, doner (known as shawarma), shammi, tikka, and other forms of roasted and grilled meats are savoured in India.[27] Some popular kebabs are:
- Kakori kebab
- Shami kebab
- Kalmi kebab
- Kacche gosht ke chapli kebab
- Tunde ke kabab
- Sambhali kebab
- Galawati
- Bihari kebab
- Boti kebab
- Seekh Kebab
- Reshmi kebab
- Lasoni kebab
- Chicken malai kebab
- Tikka kebab
- Tangdi kebab (tangdi meaning "leg of the chicken")
- Kaleji kebab
- Hariali chicken kebab
- Burrah kebab
- Soovar ki saanth (Pork belly kebabs from Rajasthan)
- Rajpooti soolah (Game meat-wild boar, deer & partridge barbecue kebabs made with a special "Kachari" (wild melon) sauce by Rajputs in Rajasthan)
Kabab (Persian: کباب), of which there are several distinct Persian varieties, is a national dish of Iran. Kebab may be served with either steamed, saffroned basmati or Persian rice (chelow kebab; چلو کباب) or with the various types of bread that are the most commonly eaten in Iran, such as Lavash. Iran has more than seven types of kebab, which form a significant part of the Iranian diet.[citation needed]
It is served with the basic Iranian meal accompaniments, in addition to grilled tomatoes on the side of the rice and butter on top of the rice. It is an old northern tradition (probably originating in Tehran) that a raw egg yolk should be placed on top of the rice as well, though this is strictly optional, and most restaurants will not serve the rice this way unless it is specifically requested. "Somagh", powdered sumac, is also made available and its use varies based on tastes to a small dash on the rice or a heavy sprinkling on both rice and meat, particularly when used with red (beef/veal/lamb) meat.
At Persian restaurants, the combination of one kabab barg and one kabab koobideh is typically called Soltani, meaning "sultan's feast". The traditional beverage of choice to accompany kebab is doogh, a sour yogurt drink with mint and salt.
In the old bazaar tradition, the rice (which is covered with a tin lid) and accompaniments are served first, immediately followed by the kebabs, which are brought to the table by the waiter, who holds several skewers in his left hand, and a piece of flat bread (typically nan-e lavash) in his right. A skewer is placed directly on the rice and while holding the kebab down on the rice with the bread, the skewer is quickly pulled out. With the two most common kebabs, barg and koobideh, two skewers are always served. In general, bazaar kebab restaurants only serve these two varieties, though there are exceptions.
In Iranian Azerbaijan, "Binab (also Bonab) Kebabi" is very famous in Azerbaijani cuisine for its large size.[28] It is named after the city of Binab in East Azerbaijan province. This kebab and other types (e.g., Shishlik, kubide, Berge, Gelin, etc.) can be served alone or with rice and fresh salad on the side. In this region Kebabs come usually with yogurt, hot bread, tomato, onion, parsley and paprika-salt, and tarragon.
Kabab koobidehEdit
Kabab koobideh (کباب کوبیده) or kūbide (کوبیده) is an Iranian minced meat kabab which is made from ground lamb, beef, or chicken, often mixed with parsley and chopped onions.
Kabab Koobideh contains: ground meat, onion, salt, pepper, turmeric, and seasoning. These ingredients are mixed together until the mixture becomes smooth and sticky. One egg is added to help the mix stick together. The mixture is then pressed around a skewer. Koobideh Kabab is typically 18 to 20 centimeters (7–8 in) long.
Kabab bargEdit
Kabāb-e barg (Persian: کباب برگ) is a Persian style barbecued lamb, chicken or beef kebab dish. The main ingredients of Kabab Barg – a short form of this name – are fillets of beef tenderloin, lamb shank or chicken breast, onions and olive oil.
Marinade is prepared by the mixture of half a cup of olive oil, three onions, garlic, half teaspoon saffron, salt and black pepper. One kilogram of lamb is cut into 1 cm thick and 4–5 cm long pieces. It should be marinated overnight in refrigerator, and the container should be covered. The next day, the lamb is threaded on long, thin metal skewers. It is brushed with marinade and is barbecued for 5–10 minutes on each side. Kabab-e Barg[permanent dead link]
Jujeh kababEdit
Jūje-kabāb (جوجهکباب) consists of pieces of chicken first marinated in minced onion and lemon juice with saffron then grilled over a fire. It is sometimes served with grilled tomato and pepper. Jujeh kabab is one of the most popular Persian dishes.
Kabab BakhtiariEdit
Kabab Bakhtiari is a combination of Jujeh kabab (chicken kabab) and Kabab barg (beef or lamb meat) in a decussate form and its name comes from the Bakhtiyari people.[citation needed]
Several types of kebab are popular in Iraq, although the word kebab in local use is reserved for skewers of spiced ground lamb, traditionally grilled on natural wood charcoal to give the kebab its special flavor. Skewers of grilled marinated meat chunks are called tikka,[4] the most popular of which is the chicken tikka.
Kebabs in Iraq are consumed any time of the day, including for breakfast.
Mizrahi Jews brought various types of grilled meat from their native Middle Eastern lands to Israel, where they are an essential part of the Israeli cuisine.[4] Among the most popular are skewers of elongated spiced ground meat, called kabab (Hebrew: קבב, qabắb), which have become a staple dish of the Israeli meat restaurants and the main dish of the traditional Israeli holiday barbecue, alongside the shishlik. They are commonly made of beef, though lamb is also occasionally used, and are almost always served with the local pita bread, hummus and vegetable salads.
Kebabs in Pakistan trace their origin to the influence of the Mughlai cuisine. Pakistani cuisine is rich with different kebabs. Meat including beef, chicken, lamb and fish is used in kebabs. Some popular kebabs are:
Shish kebab is a dish consisting of small cubes of meat or fish threaded on a skewer and grilled. Şiş, pronounced [ʃiʃ], is a Turkish word meaning "sword" or "skewer".[29][30]
In the US, the word "kebab" usually refers to shish kebab.[31][32]
In Turkey, shish kebab does not normally contain vegetables, though they may be cooked on a separate skewer.[33] It can be prepared with lamb, beef, chicken, or fish, but pork is not used. In American and other Western shish kebab recipes, any kind of meat may be used; cubes of vegetables are often threaded on the spit as well. Typical vegetables include tomato, bell pepper, onions, and mushrooms.
Before taking its modern form, as mentioned in Ottoman travel books of the 18th century,[34][35] the doner used to be a horizontal stack of meat rather than vertical, probably sharing common ancestors with the Cağ Kebabı of the Eastern Turkish province of Erzurum.
In his family biography, İskender Efendi of 19th century Bursa writes that "he and his grandfather had the idea of roasting the lamb vertically rather than horizontally, and invented for that purpose a vertical mangal".
Since then, Hacı İskender is known as the inventor of Turkish döner kebab.[36][37] With time, the meat took a different marinade, got leaner, and eventually took its modern shape.[35]
Döner kebab, literally "rotating kebab" in Turkish, is sliced lamb, beef, or chicken, slowly roasted on a vertical rotating spit. The Middle Eastern shawarma, Mexican tacos al pastor, and Greek gyros are all derived from the Turkish döner kebab, which was invented in Bursa in the 19th century by a cook named Hacı İskender.[38]
The German-style döner kebab sandwich, sometimes called simply "a kebab" in English, was introduced by Turkish immigrants in Berlin in the 1970s, and has become one of the most popular take-away foods in Germany and much of Europe. It is commonly sold by Turks, and considered a Turkish-German specialty, in Germany.[39]
Adana kebabı (or kıyma kebabı) is a long, hand-minced meat kebab mounted on a wide iron skewer and grilled over charcoal. It is generally "hot" or piquant. The traditional Adana Kebab is made using lamb, with a high fatty content cooked over hot coals. Only three ingredients are used in a proper Adana Kebab, minced lamb, red capsicum (pepper) and salt.
Steam kebabEdit
Steam kebab (Turkish: Buğu kebabı) is a Turkish stew which is cooked in a pan or an earthenware casserole. The casserole's lid is sealed in order to cook the meat in its own juices. The dish is prepared with pearl onions, garlic, thyme, and other spices. In Tekirdağ, it is served with cumin; in Izmir, it is served with mastic.[40]
Testi kebabEdit
A dish from Central Anatolia and the Mid-Western Black Sea region, consisting of a mixture of meat and vegetables cooked in a clay pot or jug over fire (testi means jug in Turkish). The pot is sealed with bread dough or foil and is broken when serving.[41][42]
Other variantsEdit
Kebab kenjehEdit
Kebab Kenjeh, also known as Chenjeh (کنجه کباب) is a meat, specifically and traditionally lamb, dish in the Middle East. Originating in Iran, kebab kenjeh is now found worldwide.[citation needed] The meat is cooked with olive oil, lemon juice, salt, and pepper and served with rice, grilled tomato, and raw onion.
Kebab HalabiEdit
A kind of kebab served with a spicy tomato sauce and Aleppo pepper, very common in Syria and Lebanon, named after the city of Aleppo (Halab). Kebab Halabi has around 26 variants[43] including:
- Kebab karaz (cherry kebab in Arabic): meatballs (lamb) along with cherries and cherry paste, pine nuts, sugar and pomegranate molasses. It is considered one of Aleppo's main dishes especially among Armenians.
- Kebab khashkhash: rolled lamb or beef with chili pepper paste, parsley, garlic and pine nuts.
- Kebab Hindi: rolled meat with tomato paste, onion, capsicum and pomegranate molasses.
- Kebab kamayeh: soft meat with truffle pieces, onion and various nuts.
- Kebab siniyye (tray kebab in Arabic): lean minced lamb in a tray added with chili pepper, onion and tomato.
Kakori kebab is an Indian kebab attributed to the city of Kakori in Uttar Pradesh, India. There is much folklore about this famous kebab that takes its name from a hamlet called Kakori on the outskirts of Lucknow.[44]
One such story says that the kakori kebab was created by the Nawab of Kakori, Syed Mohammad Haider Kazmi, who, stung by the remark of a British officer about the coarse texture of the kebabs served at dinner, ordered his rakabdars (gourmet cooks) to evolve a more refined seekh kebab.[44] After ten days of research, they came up with a kebab so soft and so juicy it won the praise of the very British officer who had scorned the Nawab.[44] The winning formula that his rakabdars came upon included mince obtained from no other part but the raan ki machhli (tendon of the leg of mutton), khoya, white pepper and a mix of powdered spices.[44]
Chapli kebab is a patty made from beef mince, onions, tomatoes, green chilies, coriander seeds, cumin seeds, salt, black pepper, lemon juice or promegranate seeds, eggs, cornstarch and coriander leaves.[45] Chapli kebab is a common dish in Pashtun cuisine and popular in Afghanistan, Pakistan. The kebab originates in Afghanistan.[45] Mardan is famous for chapli kabab not only locally but also internationally.[citation needed]
Chapli kebab is prepared flat and round and generally served with naan.[45]
The word Chapli comes from the Pashto word Chaprikh, which means "flat".[45]
Burrah kebab is another kebab from India. This is usually made of goat or lamb meat, liberally marinated with spices and charcoal grilled. It uses cuts of chops and not other meat cuts
Kalmi kebab a popular snack in Indian cuisine. The dish is made by marinating chicken drumsticks and placing them in a tandoor. Various kinds of freshly ground Indian spices are added to the yogurt used for the marination of the chicken. When prepared, the drumsticks are usually garnished with mint leaves and served with onions and Indian bread.
The Galouti kebab is a dish from South Asia, made of minced goat and green papaya, traditionally used to tenderize the meat. After mixing with herbs and spices, the very finely ground meat is shaped into patties and fried in pure ghee until it is browned.[46] Like Lucknowi biryani and Kakori kebab, it is a hallmark of Awadhi cuisine.[citation needed]
Many leading Indian hotel chains have taken to popularising the Awadhi food tradition, with the Galouti kebab being a pièce de résistance. The home of this kebab is Lucknow. It is most famously had at the almost iconic eatery "Tundey Miyan" at Old Lucknow.
Legend has it that the galawati kebab was created for an aging Nawab Wajid Ali Shah of Lucknow who lost his teeth, but not his passion for meat dishes. Galawati means "melt in your mouth" and was perfect for the toothless Nawab who continued savouring this until his last days.[citation needed] The original recipe that brought many a smile on the Nawab's face, albeit toothless, and many a sigh of satisfaction, is supposed to have more than 100 aromatic spices.[citation needed]
Speaking Norwegian with an Arab accent or with a lot of words and expressions borrowed from the Urdu, Turkish, Arabic, and Persian languages is sometimes referred to as Kebabnorsk (Kebab Norwegian).[47] In 2009, the Italian city of Lucca banned new ethnic restaurants from opening in its centre, a ruling which had a marked effect on vendors of kebab.[48] Robert Ménard, the mayor of the French city of Béziers, known for his opposition to Islam and immigration, banned new kebab restaurants, claiming that they were threatening French culture.[49]

Jambulingeswara Temple that was constructed in 7th century AD is a popular religious site at Pattadakal. Upon entering this temple, devotees will find the figures of Goddess Parvati, Lord Shiva and Nandi. Just like its twin Kadasiddhesvara Temple, it was built on an elevated plinth with five mouldings. The top moulding is embellished with miniature ganas, birds and kudus. Devotees can see the relics of a raised platform at the east side of this temple.

The basement of Nandi-mandapa as well as the remains of a Nandi idol can be seen at the eastern side of the temple. The sanctum walls have ornate niches that are further decorated with sculptures of Vishnu (north), Surya (west) and Siva (south). The ceiling slabs of the garbhagriha and roof slabs of the mandapa had been carved with makaras and vyalas. Moreover, tourists will notice that the entrance of the mandapa is embellished with door-bands. All tourists planning to visit the city of Pattadakal must include Jambulingeswara Temple in their itinerary.

text: These are all trends that are manifesting themselves right at the moment, when tech spending is supposed to be robust. These are trends that surface in Avnet ( AVT), the tech-part supermarket, which has always been a solid part of the fall tech trade, or in Jabil ( JBL), which, too, has been a bedrock fall selection. I know I believe in this tech cycle. It's worked for years and years. But here it is October, right in the tech sweet spot, and it sure isn't happening. Maybe it just won't happen at all. The result? Unless you have a very specific tech player that is taking share and taking names -- I am thinking Amazon ( AMZN) and Google ( GOOG) here -- it might not pay to play the tech trade. In fact, it looks like it has become the most deadly trade of all. At the time of publication, Action Alerts PLUS, which Cramer co-manages as a charitable trust, was long AAPL.


text: As we know that nothing can hide from Big Bosss cameras, it was proved correct when veteran actor Shakti Kapoors real bollywood bad guy image got revealed through the 55 cameras placed all around the house.Kapoor, who forgot about the cameras presence was caught slapping Miss Afghanistan Vida Samadzais butt. Shakti was standing near the kitchen area where Vida was busy doing some daily chores. In a gesture to tell her that she has lost weight, Shakti slowly puts his hand near her waist and in order to emphasise about her weight loss, he slapped her butt. But, the model did not react about his act since both share a good rapport.

Images from Right Care Action Week 2016
What is Right Care Action Week?
For one week in October — Right Care Action Week — people around the country join together and take action to show what our health care system should look like. No matter what their role is in the health care system, whether a physician, nurse, public health student, patient, family member, community member or something else, they get involved and lead activities during Right Care Action Week.
This October we had more than 110 #RCAW events with more than 3,000 participants in dozens of states. With our powers combined, we celebrated a remarkable week of sharing and listening to stories about why the fight for right care is so important.
Our health care system has strayed from its mission: Health care that is effective, affordable, needed and wanted by well-informed patients, and especially, free of clinical decisions that are made with financial or business considerations.
Right Care Action Week is an initiative through which clinicians, patients, and the public come together to show what health care can and should look like.
Please join us next October for #RCAW 2017!

Earl Sweatshirt Finds Enlightenment on I Don't Like Shit, I Don't Go Outside
Earl Sweatshirt: "I don't act hard/I'm a hard act to follow."
Photo by Brick Stowell
UPDATE Earl Sweatshirt's Miami show, originally set for May 3, has been rescheduled. "Due to an illness, Earl Sweatshirt needs to postpone the Miami show to September 2," the venue, Grand Central, has announced. "All tickets still valid."
The path to enlightenment is treacherous and hard-fought. It's lined with snakes and heads with two faces. The way is always darkest before the light, but for those who can face their demons and find honesty within themselves, the results outweigh the difficult means.
For 21-year-old Odd Future rapper Earl Sweatshirt, the reward is a healthy sense of pride, self-confidence, and mental clarity. For Sweatshirt fans, the boon is a ten-track breakthrough as powerful as it is vulnerable, titled I Don't Like Shit, I Don't Go Outside.
"This is my first album," Sweatshirt told NPR Music's Microphone Check at SXSW. Of course, IDLSIDGO is his third full-length effort and second major-label release, but Earl is speaking metaphorically these days.
"This is the first thing that I've said that I fully stand behind, like the good and the bad of it," he continued. "I've never been this transparent with myself or with music."
What started out as a humorous name for a project became a foreshadowing of the process to come. According to the Mic Check interview, Sweatshirt began working on the release just after coming home from tour. He'd just turned 20, then broke up with his main girl, and it's evident in his lyrics the MC was still digesting the loss of his grandmother, the namesake from Doris, his last album.
Like most freshly single 20-year-olds, Sweatshirt and his friends spent their days getting wasted, seeing different girls, and just being debaucherous. Earl lost a lot of weight, stopped eating and taking care of himself, but somewhere in that process, his true voice started speaking through the haze in his mind, and everything suddenly clicked.
"I got woke," he said to NPR. "I got hit in the head. When I turned 20, I got socked out of whatever zone I was in."
At 16, he was a verbal menace who shocked the world with violently masochistic music videos and tongue-in-cheek rape jokes thinly veiling relatable teen insecurities. At 17, he was banished to boarding school in Somalia while his best friends got famous and shouted his name. At 19, he was back in the United States and shoved into the spotlight as the most promising wordsmith of his generation, something he never asked for but was unwilling or unable to throw away.
At 21, on IDLSIDGO, Sweatshirt is nothing short of a visionary. Musically, it marks his first efforts of personal production. "Off Top," produced by OF fellow Left Brain, is the only beat on the album Sweatshirt didn't make. Lyrically, the LP is a sheer unstoppable force. It's intelligent and witty, and a lot of it was never even jotted down.
"It was more of me like throwing up," he said to NPR. "That's why a lot of the shit didn't get written. It was more about setting up a location. There was all these different variables that go into creating a moment, as opposed to creating a song."

Earl has no interest in catering to a mainstream audience — or an audience at all. The last track of the album, "Wool," featuring Vince Staples, was the first to be recorded and is simply two verses, no chorus.
On the lead single, "Grief," Earl raps "fishy niggas stick to eating off of hooks/Say you eating, but we see you getting cooked." "Grief" is one of the darkest moments on the record although verbally one of the artist's most audacious.
"I don't act hard/I'm a hard act to follow," he says, and it's true. Even in the wake of revealing and brutally honest albums from peers like Drake, Kendrick Lamar, and even OF band leader Tyler, the Creator, Earl Sweatshirt's voice echoes through the room as the most fearlessly exposed. He's rapping about realizing his mother was right, coming to terms with his mortality, and accepting himself as he truly is. He's 21 going on infinity. He's kind of the rap game Gautama Buddha.
"I just want my time and my mind intact/When they both gone, you can't buy 'em back."
Earl Sweatshirt. With Vince Staples and Remy Banks. 8 p.m.

Safety Not Guaranteed: Local Film Writer Derek Connolly Channels Miami's Meme-Ready Weirdness
Pick up any issue of Backwoods Home magazine and you'll find a myriad of articles on how to make paper at home and do-it-yourself fruit canning. Yet for all its helpful tips on rural living, the magazine will most likely be remembered for a small classified ad that ran in the fall of 1997. It read:
WANTED: Somebody to go back in time with me. This is not a joke. P.O. Box 322, Oakview, CA 93022. You'll get paid after we get back. Must bring your own weapons. Safety not guaranteed. I have only done this once before.
Few readers noticed the odd, original ad in print. But it did enjoy short-lived meme popularity on the Internet, as wacky and absurd randomness like a classified ad seeking a time-travel buddy is wont to do. The ad appeared online in the mid-2000s, often alongside a picture of a spaced-out-looking dude sporting a mullet.
That's when it first caught the attention of screenwriter Derek Connolly, a Miami native living in Los Angeles who turned the ad into the basis of Safety Not Guaranteed, a new film starring Mark Duplass, Jake M. Johnson, and Aubrey Plaza.

The film tells the story of Jeff (Johnson), a writer for a Seattle
magazine who comes across an ad from a man seeking a companion for his
time travel adventure. Along with interns Darius (Plaza) and Arnau
(newcomer Karan Soni) the three go out in search of the mysterious man
who placed the ad. Enter Kenneth (Mark Duplass), the ad's writer, an
odd, quiet type who works as a supermarket clerk and whom Darius
befriends for her story. Soon all four embark on a profoundly
life-changing journey. (This is the movies, after all.)
"I probably came up with the story within 10 seconds of reading the ad,"
says Connolly, a 1994 graduate of Palmetto Senior High whose family
stills call the 305 home. "But I knew something was missing. A couple of
years later, I saw Aubrey Plaza in [the 2009 film] Funny People and the
whole thing just came together."
Within a few short weeks, Connolly had a finished draft of his script.
He shared his work with Colin Trevorrow, a fellow NYU alum he met while
the two interned at Saturday Night Live. Trevorrow embraced the project,
and the two set out to make their first feature film. Trevorrow
directed; the Duplass Brothers came on board as producers; and Mark
Duplass himself eventually joined the cast. The cast and crew shot for
four weeks in Washington state, working with a small budget. When
Safety Not Guaranteed debuted at Sundance in January 2012, it earned
encouraging early reviews.
With his SNL pedigree, Connolly doesn't exactly qualify as a sci-fi
writer, or even as someone particularly drawn to stories of time-travel.
But as a South Florida native, he'd grown fond of the eclectic
characters in and around Miami, and enjoys using versions of them in his
work. In fact, that's part of what attracted him to this story.
"Miami's a weird place where weird people end up, and I'm kind of
attracted to that type of people," he explained. "Knowing those kind of
folks growing up lead to my fascination with Kenneth. He's based on a
lot of the people I knew when I lived in Miami."

The Flame, the Blade and the Heart is a book of romantic adventure stories.[1] It tells the tales of Birgitte and Gaidal Cain, Anselan and Barashelle, and Rogosh and Dunsinin among others.
It seems to be a favorite among both young ladies and grown women who like the idea of romance and adventure. Aviendha lends a copy to Egwene and Romanda Cassin considers that her love of such novels would ruin her reputation as an Aes Sedai and a woman born in Far Madding.
