One year ago this two weeks- Mt Evans and Leadman taper.
Monday- Bike with 2 X 3 mile/ 1000ft climbs at Tempo efforts. If I remember correctly I was seeing 260-270 watts. I remember being disappointed. Pretty weak considering I've ridden 120 miles in workouts at 260 normalized power.
Tuesday- Bacon Strip. 10 miles with 1800ft of climbing in 1:12 (7:12 pace). Speed was starting to come easy.
Wednesday- Long ride with 8000ft of climbing
Thursday- 20 miles with 4400ft of climbing averaging 7:37 pace. This run indicated to me what I could do at the Leadville Marathon.
Friday- Easy bike
Saturday- Run w/ 10 X 1:15 hill intervals on 45" rest
Sunday- Run w/ 3 mile climb at threshold
Total: 16 hours with 28000ft of climbing. 53 miles running with 10,600ft of vertical but I averaged 7:38 pace all above 8000ft altitude. The speed of my volume was really starting to come. I sort of panicked this week concerned that I hadn't biked enough and I gave in to that and didn't trust my training plan. Common thing to do for many of us. As a coach I preach the discipline of not doing this and it cost me a much faster time at Mt Evans the next week.
I felt that the Leadville marathon and then the 50 mile bike were intense enough to warrant true tapers. The 100 bike and the 100 run did not. It comes down to pointy end speed/ intensity. For a 100 mile race the effort is moderate enough that 'peaking' is not needed. For the 100's you just gotta be super rested. And you can't peak for all the races so I had to choose. The previous year I had focused solely on the 50 and 100 bike and trained like a cyclist so I rode much better then. This year I had focused on running and put very little stock in to the bike races and hoped to just coast on the previous year's cycling fitness and it worked. I ran very well and my bike was just adequate. I suspected that for Leadman the bike didn't matter and the only goal should be to not lose too much time to my competitors. I guessed correctly.

Two White Cranes - Radisson Blue Cassette $5.00
HHBTM came to find Two White Cranes in the best way possible, seeing Roxy (Two White Cranes) perform solo in Bristol opening for another band on the label while on tour in the UK. There was zero expectation and the band had been added kinda last minute. Within the first song it took me back to living room shows or seeing a band like Lois or Mirah do an in-store. The songs so delicate and so powerful. Just a magnificent voice that tiptoes the line of Madeline and Sibylle Baier and a plucked nylon string guitar. Songs for of hope and loss and resonance in both tone and feeling. Those songs stayed with me for weeks on end. Shortly after this, Roxy joined Joanna Gruesome as their new vocalist. We bumped into each other again in the UK and yet another surprise show where she came in and played a set just her and that same guitar but in a giant tent. Almost a year from seeing her perform the first time around this tape is released with hopes this is just one of a long line of many.

Try the Pie - Rest LP $13.00 / Cassette $5.00
Try The Pie is the songwriting project of San Jose based musician/writer/artist Bean Tupou. A scaled-back affair compared to last years Distraction, Rest is a seductive mix of sugar & citrus, as achingly sincere as Kim Deal at her finest. You cant help holding your breath to hear how the story ends. "Alu'a is the Tongan word for goodbye when you are staying and the other person is going. Rest is an album dedicated to this sentiment. I wrote the songs over a duration of three years (2005-2008) and recorded it in the last year by myself in my room in San Francisco. Sometimes you can hear someone doing dishes or the beep of a dying smoke-detector. This album is an example of the slow, whispering tempo, slanted harmonies and embellished metaphors that I grew up listening to. As part of the bands Sourpatch and Crabapple, and as one of the creative forces behind the Think and Die Thinking Collective, Tupou has been a fixture on the South Bays DIY punk scene, crafting socially-conscious and catchy punk rock while helping creates spaces that are open, accepting, and funa universe of gender-neutral pronouns & queer-positive politics. Its a record so intimate it feels almost like youre eavesdropping. You unconsciously hold your breath to keep from being noticed. The songs are littered with household objects, embodied and alive. References to neighbors and roommates abound. Listen to Seahorse and hear a story of immobilization and the struggle to stay afloat, simultaneously wistful & withdrawn, youthful & yearning. Rest is the sound of a fragile sensitivitythe avalanche of life communicated through tentative wishes and plaintive regrets. An album so open and honest that its very existence is an act of bravery. And when so much of our lives are consumed by fear and what others will think of us, the masks we create to make other people happy, we need records like this more than ever. HHBTM Records is beyond proud to be associated with a record like this and everything it stands for.

Antlered Aunt Lord - Ostensibly Formerly Stunted (and on fire) LP $13.00
Antlered Aunt Lord is entirely Jesse Stinnard, a guy whos spent the past ten years in Athens, Georgia, as a cherished eccentric in a town known for its cherished eccentricities. HHBTM is honored to bring Stinnards tuneful genius into the light with his first official release. Antlered Aunt Lord is everything todays music is notmelodic, lyrically inventive, reticent, and moving. Songs so catchy they sound like they emerged fully-formed from the radio, with lyrics so mysterious they sound like they emerged from your dreams. This is the prophet sharingthe missing link between the Pixies and The Byrds if theyd been raised in the Appalachians. Little was known about Stinnard, an autodidact often seen around town in 24-hour diners reading thousand page books, until he was begged into joining Tunabunny when their drummer quit days before the bands first tour (Stinnard had approached the band after their third show and asked if he could record them). His shows around town are legendary for their passionate indifference. Stinnards been known to stand with his back to the audience screaming at unseen phantoms. Sometimes theres a band, sometimes its just Stinnard with tape loops streaming around the space. Culled from a several-hundred song backlog, Ostensibly Formerly Stunted (And On Fire) is the sound of brain fever on fire. You think of R. Stevie Moore until you realize he never made a song as moving as Throwback Bikes. You think of Robert Pollard until you realize Pollard hasnt made a song as great as Hi Beam Hi Priest (Blinker Fluid) since the last century. You hear the open-throated beautiful love of Monopilot and think of early R.E.M. Then you remember that R.E.M. is dead. Antlered Aunt Lord is alive.

Experience Chef's Table at Brooklyn FareThursday, January 12, 2012 at 07:01 PM - Posted by Megan - (0) comments
A tiny, unassuming kitchen attached to a downtown Brooklyn grocery isn't the typical location for a three Michelin-starred restaurant. Yet, Chef's Table at Brooklyn Fare continues to break the culinary mold. Since opening in late 2010, snagging one of the eighteen seats at this exclusive supper club has become one of the city's most coveted reservations. If you happen to be lucky (or mighty persistent) enough to attend a nightly dinner seating, you'll enter an intimate room filled by a stainless steel U-shaped communal table facing hanging copper pots and a state-of-the-art open kitchen.
Focusing on seasonal ingredients, chef Cesar Ramirez and staff gracefully prepare a well-paced procession of 18-20 small plates, varying daily based on produce availability. Flavorful amuses awakened my taste buds, such as succulent king crab meat wrapped in delicate shredded phyllo atop chilled cucumber dill yogurt, and a cube of flaky Japanese fluke that arrived under a sliver of tart pickled daikon. After about a dozen singular bites (the majority fish-based), seven larger courses followed, including a lightly seasoned rouget over Japanese risotto in foamy saffron bouillabaisse and the most beautifully cooked duck I've ever had—tender with thinly fat-laden crispy skin, balanced by earthy chanterelles and silky miso purée. Succeeding an onslaught of savory, I welcomed a creamy fromage blanc sorbet melting into a pool of sweet cherries laced with yuzu rind.
No detail went overlooked, down to the attentive service and exquisite handmade china collection. With a BYO policy, don't forget your favorite bottle (no corkage fee) and be prepared to eat whatever's put in front of you—the chef's not known for customizing the menu. Worth the price and hassle to get in, this truly is a dining experience of a lifetime.

Battle of the Bling: Silver Holographic Top Coats
Here are the Contenders.
My initial thought was the Orly is just a glitter top coat that is slightly more reflective than normal glitter. INM is pretty much the same as the Orly with smaller glitter and more density. INM (both the silver and gold versions) is the only brand of glitter top coat I own that completely settles at the bottom. The bottle has a sticker on it that says, "shake it up" which, of course, is blasphemous – one should never shake a bottle of nail polish. To get all the glitter to evenly disperse throughout the bottle using the correct method (i.e. rolling the bottle inbetween your fingers) is incredibly time consuming and irritating. Finally, the fan favorite, Wireless, from the OMG collection, is the densest of all with the finest glitter. Let's Do it in 3-D, from the Kaleidoscope Collection, is not a topcoat, it's only here for comparison because it looked so much like Wireless to me that I initially mistook one for the other when I was taking these pictures. Wireless is probably just a more diluted version of Let's Do it in 3-D.
This is 2 coats OPI – Black Onyx and 1 Coat for each Top Coat.
-Now for the real bling-
Clearly, Let's Do it in 3-D brings the most *bling*. However, it's not actually a top coat – it can't win this contest. China Glaze – Wireless Top Coat is my pick. Owning both Wireless and INM is justifiable. They aren't duplicates and the effect is clearly different. INM is basically a really nice (although run of the mill) glitter top coat while Wireless is more unique, I'm hesitant to call it glitter top coat at all. There is nothing really wrong with Orly, but if you own INM – no point in picking up a version with bigger and sparser glitter (unless you're looking for something like that.)

Myleene Klass has wished a slow death on the person who mugged her mother and sister.
The singer and TV star, whose mother came to Britain from the Philippines to train as a nurse, made the comments on Twitter.
Myleene, 35, wrote: "To the person who mugged my 67 year old mum and my sister. I hope you get hit by a bus and die. Slowly."
The message received more than 160 retweets and messages from other celebrities including fellow presenter Kate Thornton, Spice Girl Emma Bunton and Martine McCutcheon.
Mother-of-two Myleene was herself described as 'very shaken up' after she was attacked by a gang in Bermondsey, south London, in 2005.

From Help:Editing
Discussion or "talk" pages are for communicating with other ArchWiki users.
To discuss any page, go to that page and then click the "discussion" tab at the top of the page. Add a new comment at the end of the page or reply below an existing comment. Use indenting to format your discussion. Standard practice is to indent your reply one more level deep than the person to whom you are replying. Further, you should insert your comment beneath the one to which you are replying, but below others who are doing the same.
Sign comments by typing
~~~~ to insert your username and a timestamp. Avoid editing another user's comments.
Experiment by editing the talk page of the Sandbox.
User talk pages
Note the difference between a user page, and a user talk page. Everyone may have a user talk page on which other people can leave public messages. If one does not exist for a particular user, you may create it so that you can leave a comment. If someone has left you a message on yours, you will see a note saying "You have new messages" with a link to your own user talk page: in this case you are supposed to reply on your own talk page beneath the original message with appropriate indentation. Please avoid replying to a discussion on a different talk page, for example the one of the user who contacted you, since such a style of communication creates disconnects with the flow of information regarding the subject at hand.
Do not edit a user's own page without permission (i.e. [[User:Name]]); these serve as personal user spaces. The "user talk page" is the correct place for communicating (other than sending private email if the address is published).
From Help:Style
- Add new discussions at the bottom of discussion pages and with a proper heading. You can also make use of the
+tag at the top of each discussion page.
- Indent your answers using colons at the beginning of new lines.
- Do not edit your posts if somebody has already replied, otherwise you will break the flow of the discussion and make it difficult for others to further respond. Only striking (using
<s>tags) words or sentences is allowed, but the related explanation should be given in a regular reply.
- Always append a signature (
~~~~) to your edits.
- Discussion pages should not be categorized.
- You should take care to strike the header of exhausted discussions using
Exhausted discussions will be deleted a while after striking.
- See also Help:Editing#Discussion pages.
An explanation is not mandatory in talk pages, where the why should be already evident.
When deleting exhausted discussions, however, some explanation words are required (e.g. "closed discussion," "fixed," etc.) and including also the title of the discussion could help retrieving it in the history in case it needs to be reopened.

Will Muschamp's job may be safe, but at least one of his assistants has found himself on the coaching unemployment line.
The Associated Press' Mark Long is reporting that offensive coordinator Brent Pease has been fired, one day after a dismal 4-8 season came to a merciful end. Long reported that Pease met with Muschamp at 11 this morning and was notified of the decision to go in a different direction.
Florida is expected to officially announce Pease's departure this afternoon. There could be additional changes on the offensive staff as well.
Pease, who will be owed $1.2 million for the remainder of his contract, was in his second season as the Gators' coordinator after replacing Charlie Weis. UF's offense was simply miserable in 2013, making Pease's departure inevitable.
This year, the Gators finished the regular season T-111th at 18.8 points per game, 112th in total offense at 316.7 yards per game and 107th in passing offense at 170.9 yards per game.
In which direction Muschamp will turn is unknown, but it would behoove him to make a quality hire who can make an immediate impact on his moribund offense. If Muschamp can't get the offense turned around, and if his tenure continues on its current trajectory, it will be Coach Boom who finds himself looking for a new job at some point in 2014.
UPDATED 2:51 p.m. ET: In a press release, Florida confirmed that offensive coordinator Brent Pease "will not return for the 2014 season." Additionally, offensive line coach Tim Davis was dismissed.
"I have a lot of respect for Coach Pease and Coach Davis," said head coach Will Muschamp in a statement. "They are both good football coaches and even better people. There have been a lot of unfortunate circumstances this year, but that is part of the game sometimes. I want to thank each of them for their contributions to the program both on and off the field."
"I am grateful for the opportunity to come to the University of Florida and work with a bunch of great coaches, administrative staff and players," said Pease." I know we came up short of our ultimate goal, but I will carry on knowing I gained valuable friendships and relationships during my time here."

Hibiki 12 to be released first in Europe!
The Japanese whisky industry is changing very quickly. Suntory have just announced that their new Hibiki 12 blended whisky will be released in Europe ahead of its launch in Japan!
The Hibiki 12 will be sold in the UK, France and Sweden from mid May at a suggested retail price of £35 (700 ml). The Japanese will have to wait until Autumn to get their first taste of the younger version of Japan's most famous blended whisky (the star, lest any of you be allowed to forget, of Sofia Coppola's movie 'Lost in Translation'). The 17, 21 and 30-year-old Hibikis have been winning loads of major international prizes in recent years, hitting the headlines last year when the Hibiki 30 won the overall best blended whisky title at the World Whisky Awards.
Suntory describes the young Hibiki as having a mild profile. They say it has a fruity smell developing into honey and custard creams. It has a soft mellow sweetness on the palate, according to Suntory, with just a touch of acidity and spice at the finish.
I have just done a couple of interviews with some big cheeses at Suntory and they intimated that they are committed to significantly expanding their export market. This year is the 20th anniversary of the beginning of the Hibiki brand and the decision to launch the Hibiki 12 abroad is a dramatic demonstration of the new priorities.
Nonjatta's large US readership will have noticed that this early export release is in Europe rather than the States. American fans of Japanese whisky are, it seems, still getting the short end of the stick. For this, I am afraid, you have no one to blame but your own bureaucrats. Hiroyoshi Miyamoto, general manager of Suntory's Yamazaki distillery, told me that it was a nightmare getting Japanese whisky and, particularly, single malt into the US. "They don`t have a category for us in their alcohol import handbook. We got lucky with Yamazaki some years back but when we tried to import Hakushu we were told there was no such thing as Japanese single malt whisky," he said. There is light on the horizon, however. Miyamoto said they were currently in negotiations in the US and hoped that they would make some real progress in the near future. I also believe there is a very strong possibility of getting Nikka whisky into the US. I am in touch with the people behind that effort and will post news as soon as something concrete happens.
In the meantime, can the first European to taste the young Hibiki please send in their impressions? Enjoy!
Updates on this: New Hibiki 12 tastes kind of yummy
24 sided bottle...
for 24 hour drinkers?

Reading your article about the Hibiki 12 y.o. Very excited to try, the 17 is a fav of mine. Great whisky when I finish work, but I'm wondering. Suntory only imports the Yamasaki 12 y.o to Australia, you think it's because they think they will have the same trouble in Australia they had in the US?

To be honest with you, I have no idea. I know that, thanks to companies like Maison du Whisky and No. 1 drinks, Europe has emerged as a mature market for Japanese whisky. Perhaps the positive reasons for going to Europe were as important as negative problems with the US and other markets? Suntory is a huge company and if they really needed to kick down those import doors they probably could. I don`t know what the Australian regulatory set up is like. If you can tell us more, I think we would all be interested to know.

I was in a Japanese market today in San Mateo, CA and found Nikka Gold & Gold and Super Nikka for $32USD. Both imported by JFC International.
Besides this sighting, I haven't seen anything besides Yamakazi. I have to check out a few whisky bars here in SF but really, I'm not excited about paying 3x markup for bottle service.
I was still excited to find cheap Nikka, but it doesn't compare to a few weeks ago when I was drinking Yoichi 15 in Tokyo. That was wonderful...
Thanks for your blog, I really enjoy reading it.

I live in the Bay Area and am looking for Nikka whisky, could you please tell me which Japanese supermarket in San Mateo did you buy this
- December 28, 2010 at 5:12 PM
I am afraid, as a Tokyo resident, I have know knowledge of San Mateo, let alone San Mateo`s Japanese supermarkets. Any Nonjatta readers who can be more helpful?

I forgot the name of the market but its on 4th avenue one block east of el camino real, kitty corner from wells fargo.
I'm pretty sure you can get Hibiki 12 from k&l wines. They're in Redwood City and SF.
Good luck!

Sorry Sanjay, I just reread your comment. I don't believe there is anyplace in the USA that sells high end Nikka. You can get Nikka black and gold at that market I mentioned, or at Murakai in southern california.

Here are some quick tips about handling the big shopping day.
Remember when setting the alarm clock was on your Black Friday to-do list? Retailers today aren�t risking the chance you�ll oversleep.
The biggest players in the shopping world are unlocking the automatic doors and rolling out the much-hyped markdowns on Thanksgiving Day and into Black Friday.
Shoppers will also see more staggered hours as companies compete to be the first sale on the block.
Kmart has special deals at 6 a.m. and again at 8 p.m. Thursday, followed by 5 a.m. offers Friday.
Walmart will start at 8 p.m. Thanksgiving.
Target is next at 9 p.m.
Hhgregg is going with 10 p.m.
Off-hour offers continue from midnight into morning thereafter.
The upside for Black Friday fans: You don�t have to pick just one or two of the �doorbusters.� With six or more hours between each opening, there�s time left to be at the front � or close to the front � of more than one long line.
5 things new to Black Friday
1. Hello, rain check.
Walmart is promising shoppers something almost unheard of on Black Friday: The chance (for some) to get the same deal later if the store runs out that night.
Don�t get too excited. The guarantee, which only applies to a few electronics purchases, has restrictions. You have to be in line or inside the store between 10 and 11 p.m.
But the guarantee gives you leverage with other retailers offering specials on your most coveted gifts. It can�t hurt to ask the managers at other stores if they�ll make the same promise.
Another plus: If it works out for Walmart, other big boxes could follow suit in the future.
2. Rolling deals
Not content with just one mad dash toward the toy aisle, the main three discount stores are offering different specials at different times of the night.
That helps shoppers who can�t decide which sale to hit and would like a shot at more than one store.
It can lead to confusion, too. In lots of cases, the different deals all have different sales circulars and different fine print.
Make sure you�re prepared and dealing with the confusing crush of people will be far simpler.
3. Fewer TVs required
HDTV owners don�t have lots of reasons to upgrade this year, says online discount site DealNews.
Most of the bells and whistles on the top-of-the-line models are things the electronics geek already has, thanks to external Blu-ray players and gaming consoles.
It means a couple of things. Black Friday shoppers may find the on-sale TVs don�t sell out as quickly on the big night. So they might be easier to get.
But dwindling demand could mean you�ll find equally attractive deals closer to Christmas as retailers get more and more desperate.
4. Economical iPhone extras
You seldom see the word Apple and affordable in the same sentence, so this one is big.
That new iPhone 5 everybody lined up for two months ago? Its altered size meant owners needed new covers, chargers and other accessories. So those that fit the last-generation iPhones are likely to be a bargain this year, according to DealNews.
The site predicts a �fire sale� on docks and other pieces that fit the many still-in-use iPhone 4 and 4S models.
5. Facebook them
You�ll also want to check out the Twitter account for your favorite retailer.
Special deals � many Black Friday related �abound on social networking sites. If you�re willing to give a brand a �like,� the store might give you a coupon or a sneak peek.
Others offer discounts for folks willing to tweet about the retailer.
The Black Friday game plan
Tales from a bargain hunter
Christy Jackson of Gastonia has a yearly Black Friday tradition. She and her twin 16-year-old daughters start at midnight Thursday, shopping a Concord Mills.
At 6 a.m. Friday, they pick up a grandmother and great-grandmother and head to Northlake Mall.
They Christmas shop until supper, meet the men of the family for a meal and start all over at 7 a.m. Saturday.
Among Jackson�s tips for making Black Friday worth her family�s while:
Plan ahead. On Thanksgiving Day, immediately after lunch, the ladies spread the sales circulars on the table make a list of everything they want to go after.
The family takes a special interest in the �doorbuster� deals for early birds. Belk and Bath and Body Works are Jackson�s favorites. But she warns fellow shoppers not to get tunnel vision. Checking out the in-store displays sometimes nets the crowd unexpected deals.
Eat a good breakfast. You don�t want to be hungry in that long line.
Strength in numbers. Don�t settle for just one line. If you have multiple people and multiple items on your list, station one shopper outside each store. Jackson says it helps if you don�t mind chatting it up with strangers while you wait.
But not too strong. The Jackson family goes with four or five people. They think that�s the optimum size. More than that and you wind up waiting on each other or tracking down a stray member of the party. And those time-burners take away from shopping hours.
Be nice. If you tend to get grouchy, Black Friday is not the day for you to go shopping. Jackson would also suggest you treat sales associates kindly. �They would probably rather be shopping with their family and friends, but they are helping us enjoy the day,� she says.
Black Friday on a smaller scale
Star Black has been in the coffee business for more than two decades.
But 2012 marks a big Black Friday for the independent shop owner.
This summer, Black closed down Grinders, her coffee shop at Westfield Eastridge mall, opting for a Franklin Square location near Walmart.
The move meant building a new clientele for Caffeine, a double-the-size spot for the longtime barista. And while business is picking up, keeping the shop viable has been a struggle, says Black.
The strip mall location means fewer passers-by on foot. They�re driving instead.
They�re also going to nearby Walmart to pick up everything they need in one stop, so a leisurely stop by the coffee shop might be the last thing on their minds.
Making a play for more customers, Black partnered with A Blissful Bite bakery in McAdenville for homemade cupcakes and has been working on adding locally made cheesecake to the menu.
She pays attention to late-night releases at Game Stop and tries to make sure patrons know she�s just down the street.
But Black Friday could be a game changer for the small business owner.
Black, who always opens for 24 hours on Friday and Saturday, will pull an all-nighter this Thanksgiving, too. Her happy hour coffee special will be from 8 p.m. to midnight.
And she�s hoping for more exposure as bargain hunters pile into the parking lot. They�ll have to take the spaces farther away from the big box stores, which can put them closer to her front door, she reasons.
Heavy traffic means they�ll be driving by more slowly, too, giving her a better shot at attracting attention.
And all that waiting for the deals to drop in different stores, some of it outside in the cold? Black hopes that will create a built-in market for the coffee trade.
�The thought when I opened was what if I could pull 10 percent of Walmart�s traffic?� she says. �But if I can pull 10 percent of Black Friday?�

Publix offers high-end catering that goes beyond deli wraps
When Loren Lopez, an executive assistant at Plantation brokerage firm Trade Station, was recently tasked with planning an office party for 300 employees, she went to Publix, figuring she'd order some cheese cubes and deli wraps.
What she got — a full-service catered affair with professional chefs and servers — impressed her, her colleagues and her bosses.
"They totally dazzled us," Lopez said, recounting bites of warm cranberry-brie phyllo cups paired with wine. "Everything was very elegant, like we were at our holiday party. I couldn't even believe it was all from Publix."
For the past 10 months, the Publix in Plantation at University Drive and Peters Road has quietly started offering high-end catering services, covering Miami-Dade, Broward and Palm Beach counties. It is one of two of the supermarket's Florida branches — the other is in Jacksonville — currently testing Publix Aprons Catering; the company is considering expanding the brand, spokeswoman Nicole Krauss said.
"Publix Aprons Catering is a natural extension of our Aprons brand," Krauss said. "It all started with Aprons Simple Meals, providing easily accessible meals and recipes. That service grew to include Aprons Cooking Schools, where our customers can learn cooking techniques from professional chefs."
Leading the catering-and-cooking-school charge for Publix in South Florida are chefs Wes Bonner and Richard Wilson. They share duties prepping for and leading cooking classes in the Plantation store's second-floor demonstration kitchen as well as planning and cooking for off-site events like dinner parties, weddings, corporate events and bar mitzvahs.
In addition to almost-daily cooking classes, the Plantation Publix handles about four to six private catering gigs a month.
"We haven't done a lot of marketing, so right now it's about working really hard to build our reputation as a catering provider and blow away customers so we get that word-of-mouth advertising," Wilson said. "The hardest part is trying to tell potential clients about what we do, and they say, 'Oh yeah, I know Publix caters. I get my subs there.' "
Publix offers cooking classes at its markets in Plantation, Boca Raton and six other locations throughout the state. Several other supermarket chains, including Winn-Dixie and Whole Foods, host similar classes. Publix appears to be the first to enter the highly competitive fray of upscale catering in South Florida, where a web search reveals well more than 500 providers.
"Everyone will tell you they're a caterer," Bonner said as he beat egg whites for a chocolate mousse. "But there's a big difference between cooking a gourmet meal for two people and cranking out 120 plates of properly cooked and plated food at the same time."
The two young culinary school graduates — Bonner is 29, Wilson is 26 — both worked in restaurants before deciding they preferred the perks of being cooking instructors and private caterers.
"My two passions are cooking and teaching, and I get to do both of those here," Wilson said.
He was moving methodically through the store's aisles on a recent weekday, filling a shopping cart with ingredients for that night's French-inspired cooking class: nutmeg, truffle oil, shallots, chicken breasts, potatoes. He scanned each item with a pricing gun and moved on; no need to wait in a checkout line.
"It's pretty great to be able to run downstairs and have a whole market at our fingertips to pick out the freshest ingredients the day of a class or an event," Wilson said.
For their catering staff, Bonner said he and Wilson cull from among "the best and the brightest" employees in their store, then train them on the finer points of food safety, service and bartending.
That means the person dressed in a pressed white shirt and black slacks, explaining your plate of roasted butternut squash with pancetta at a black-tie affair, may be a deli worker or cashier whose regular uniform includes a green Publix vest.
"We get high-quality associates who are really eager to learn about plating or helping in the kitchen," Bonner said. "And they genuinely enjoy being able to interact with customers in a different role than what they're used to in the store."
In addition to service and access to fresh ingredients, Bonner and Wilson say they believe their employer's standard of cleanliness helps Publix Aprons Catering stand out from other caterers.
"We promise we'll leave your place cleaner than it was when we got there," Wilson said. "We had to put that to the test when we did a dinner party at a house where the kitchen was literally brand-new. But I think the hostess was pleased."
Just as Publix associates are not supposed to take tips from store customers, gratuities as well as delivery fees are included in the cost of catering plans and are not accepted at events.
Publix declined to provide a price range for its catering services, noting that its prices are competitive with other caterers and vary depending on elements such as the size of an affair, the type of food and drinks served, and whether rentals like chairs, linens and flatware are needed.
A catering catalog presents food options in categories of platinum, gold and silver. Sample entrées: slow-roasted duck with mango-habanero sauce (platinum), hand-cut rib-eye steak with bleu cheese butter (gold) and mojo-marinated roasted pork shoulder with sweet plantains (silver).
Krauss said customers can mix and match dishes from various tiers to create the menu they want.
"We're able to accommodate each individual's customer's needs, no matter the type of event or celebration and regardless of size or budget," she said.
Indeed, Lopez said Publix worked with her to ensure the Trade Station party she organized came in under budget. At $4,000, her appetizers-and-wine gathering worked out to less than $14 a person.
"The pricing was affordable, and that was important to us," Lopez said. "They never tried to up-charge me or tack on extra fees. They took care of everything, no hassle at all. I can't say enough good things."

One Fun Car
By Not A Soccer Mom on Saturday, March 31, 2012I have had this car about a month now and I love it. I have 6cyl SXT edition with the Rallye package. I currently average about 24 city and 30 hwy. We took this vehicle on a short roadtrip just to test and see if the fuel economy was as good as advertised and were pleased with the 30 MPG. The enterior is spacious and seats 4 adults and a car seat comfortably. I love the push button start and the fact I don't need to get my key out to unlock and start the car. This may not have a Hemi but it pretty quick. Fast enough that I have to watch my speed because I'm usually going faster than I realize. I like the climate, stereo and blue tooth controls being integrated into one screen. I love that the MP3 decoder picks up my phones music wirelessly. No need to take the time and plug in the cord. My one complaint with this car is the gaurd that pops up in the front of the moonroof is made of mesh. This does help prevent bugs from getting in the car however it makes huge amounts of noise at highway speeds. It is also impossible to clean. In order for the gaurd to be visable the moonroof has to be open and unless you want bugs, cleaner and water in the car you can't clean it while open. You would almost need to remove it and clean it away from the car and in my opinion that is just rediculous. This is a RWD car so I would caution anyone wanting to buy this who has to drive in the snow. It handles great in the rain and typical driving conditions though. I have a Subaru for snow and a Charger for fun.

This is the One.
By Parousia on Wednesday, December 12, 2012Ask my wife; I am always in the market for a new car. It was a hobby. No more. I've had 2 GTO's, a G8 GT, Sonata 2.0t, Genesis (Coupe and Sedan), Sierra Quad Cab... the list goes on. You get the idea. The 2012 Charger SXT is the best car I have ever owned. (Hint: add a Cold Air Intake to the V6. It will help you get over not having a V8 right around 5700rpm. The snarl is intoxicating.) Be patient, look for good deals, and you can take an SXT home for under $25k. It devours interstates for lunch. 70mph = 1500rpm. The chassis is solid. It handles well for such a large car. It has all the features you want; none of the stuff you don't. "Base" stereo with the 8.4 touchscreen is Alpine. Nice! The transmission anticipates your next move. HUGE on the inside, sexy on the outside. If the styling is too much... go with a 300. I'll say this: the car begs for a lumpy torque-monster V8. But unless you live stoplight-to-stoplight, the overachieving Pentastar V6 will take you from 0-60 in well under 7 seconds while sipping regular unleaded. The 8-speed vs. the 5-speed for the Hemi closes the desirability gap between the two considerably.

Romans 9:19-33
This next portion of scripture starts out with an arrogant question on the part of humanity.
"Why does he (God) still find fault? For who can resist his will?
Again we need to remember who God is and who we are not (see previous post) Who are we to question God? We who are but clay in the Potter's hands.
There is such arrogance in humanity. It's been there since the dawn of creation, actually before creation with the fall of Lucifer. It began at creation when Adam and Eve desired to be like God and choose to disobey and sin. Today I marvel (not in a good way) at the arrogance I see in mankind. How we shake our fists at God and demand our rights as superior creatures. Who is God to say I am worthy of salvation or not. I am worth it because I am superior! (right). But God.....
We see ourselves as all that, but what are we really? Clay. From the ground. Dirt. Mold-able. Fragile. Temporary. We come demanding response. He is there with great patience!
The truth is only God knows who will come to him and who will not. He alone knows those vessels prepared for destruction and those vessels of His mercy. His patience is amazing, allowing the full number of those he called to come in (Romans 11:25; Luke 21:24; Revelation 7:9) He never losses one of those he calls (John 6:39; 10:28; 17:12; 18:9) either. He exudes the greatest of patience and love towards a fallen, egotistical humanity. He will hold out until all he has called has come to him. Not only from his chosen race, but from the Gentiles as well.
Paul concludes the chapter stating that only a remnant of his countrymen will be saved, and not only that but a people who did not pursue righteousness will be saved. That's us!! Paul quotes from the books of Hosea and Isaiah to show this amazing truth. Of course there's always that remnant! God always keeps his promises and he is going to do that for the nation of Israel, but first.....
Those (Jews) who pursued a law that would lead to righteousness did not succeed in reaching that law. Why? Because unlike the Gentiles they did not pursue it by faith, but stumbled over the Stumbling Stone (Christ), whom God appointed. And those who did not pursue it (righteousness) have attained it. Why? Faith in the One (Christ).
So here we are at the end of Chapter 9 with so much more to understand about our amazing God, and maybe understanding him a smidge better. What it all boils down to is.....
Are you able to rest in that?
1. Do you often find yourself questioning God or his motives?
2. Do you see how great his mercy is to those who he has "prepared before hand for glory?"
3. Do you also see his "great patience" with the vessels of wrath?
4. God always has a remnant. There is never large numbers, but few. How does that affect your view of the visible church?
5. Are you pursuing a works based faith, missing the mark, or one you firmly cling to, the True Rock?

Transmedia, Hollywood is a one-day public symposium exploring the role of transmedia franchises in today's entertainment industries. Transmedia, Hollywood turns the spotlight on media creators, producers and executives and places them in critical dialogue with top researchers from across a wide spectrum of film, media and cultural studies to provide an interdisciplinary summit for the free interchange of insights about how transmedia works and what it means. Transmedia, Hollywood is co-hosted by Denise Mann and Henry Jenkins, from UCLA and USC, two of the most prominent film schools and media research centers in the nation.
Transmedia, Hollywood 4: Spreading Change
Transmedia entertainment has been advanced within the Hollywood system primarily through a logic of promotion, audience building, and engagement, offering the ideal tools for capturing the imagination of networked audiences through the creation of immersive and expansive imaginary worlds. As transmedia has spread around the world, especially to countries with a much stronger tradition of public media, these same practices have been embraced as a means not of building fictional realms but of spreading change throughout the world.

Tony Sparano was the head coach who showed the NFL how successful the Wildcat offense can be with the Dolphins, then was the offensive coordinator who showed the NFL how dismal a failure the Wildcat offense can be with the Jets. Now Sparano is the assistant head coach and offensive line coach of the Raiders, and he doesn't want to talk about the Wildcat.
Sparano talked on Wednesday about how excited he is about what the Raiders' offense can do with running back Darren McFadden. Specifically, Sparano noted that when he was the head coach of the Dolphins, his quarterbacks coach was David Lee — who was the offensive coordinator at Arkansas when the Razorbacks used to use McFadden in the Wildcat. But Sparano stopped short of saying he thinks that's what the Raiders will do this year.
"I've known of McFadden for a long time," Sparano told reporters. "My quarterback coach at the time in Miami was a fella by the name of David Lee. And David Lee was at the time the coordinator at Arkansas when they were out there and they were running McFadden and Felix [Jones] and that group of guys, doing some different things with them. I don't want to say that word, you'll bring it up soon enough. They were doing some different things with him obviously, I got a chance to watch him and study him and get a chance to learn."
It's not surprising that Sparano doesn't want to use the word "Wildcat." After the disaster that was the Jets trading for Tim Tebow last year, allegedly because he could run the Wildcat in Sparano's offense, Sparano probably views the Wildcat as a millstone around his neck.
But before the Wildcat became a millstone in New York, it was cited as an example of the creative way that Sparano got the most out of his offense in Miami. It wouldn't be surprising to see Sparano help the Raiders draw up some plays in which McFadden takes the snap. Just as long as it's clear that McFadden is more like Ronnie Brown than Tim Tebow.

COLUMBUS, OH (Toledo News Now) - Ohio Attorney General Mike DeWine announced that forensic scientists working at the Attorney General's Bureau of Criminal Investigation are now processing DNA cases in a record turnaround time of 20 days. This is despite a 34-percent increase in DNA submissions from law enforcement from December 2010 to today.
In December 2010, just before DeWine took office, DNA results took approximately 125 days to complete.
"The time it took for the lab to complete DNA testing was far too long," said DeWine. "The sooner we can process the crime scene evidence, the sooner we can arrest the perpetrator."
A 'three-pronged' approach focusing on staffing, technology, and efficiency was used in the turnaround time reduction plan. A total of 21 scientists were added to the BCI laboratory staff, BCI's number of DNA testing and Combined DNA Index System robots doubled from six to 12, and a continuous quality improvement process has now been established.
"The additional work we put into this effort is well worth it," said DeWine. "It is gratifying to know that we have helped local law enforcement prevent additional crimes by getting criminals off the streets a lot faster."
BCI currently averages approximately 155 CODIS hits a month, with more than 2,000 matches in 2012.
In October, DNA evidence helped Newark Police identify a man accused of kidnapping and raping a 15-year-old girl who was walking to high school. BCI processed the DNA evidence submitted by authorities in 12 days.
"The longer an investigation takes, the more difficult it is to solve it," said Newark Police Detective Steve Vanoy. "With the decreased turnaround time it makes our job that much easier."
"I have to believe that if this suspect had not been arrested for several months while we were waiting for DNA results, he would have reoffended," added Licking County Prosecutor Kenneth Oswalt.Turnaround times for other laboratory testing processes have also declined.Testing Process 2010/Days 2012/Days
-Chemistry 42.85 10.49
-Firearms 35.33 15.73
-Latent Prints 43.28 29.37
-Trace Evidence 65.74 20.62
-Gun Shot Residue 51.38 19.56
-Polygraph 04.73 03.42
View a month-by-month breakdown of the 2012 turnaround time numbers.
Nearly 90 percent of Ohio's law enforcement agencies rely on BCI for state crime lab services. In 2012, the BCI laboratory tested approximately 161,000 pieces of evidence.

Alicia Keys Performing New Song at the 2012 Video Music Awards
Alicia Keys will perform a new song at the 2012 MTV Video Music Awards on Sept. 6. This will be the second time the R&B piano queen unveiled a new track, the first was back in 2007 when she performed her anthemic hit 'No One' for a Las Vegas crowd.
Ms. Keys wouldn't divulge the name of the tune or explain how it sounds, but she insist that the song is, well, insane. "Debuting a new song at the VMAs is definitely special," she tells MTV News. "I debuted 'No One' at the VMAs, it was the first time anyone had ever heard 'No One.' It was just the perfect setting. It's the right energy. It's the right vibe."
"This song is so crazy! I'm so excited for real. I'm so excited. I can't wait to tell y'all about it but it's just a really empowering and powerful moment," she continued.
For the last couple of weeks, Keys has launched a movement for her new musical project. Her hashtag campaign #AKNewDay has sparked thousands of people to post inspiring photos to their Instagram. And her graffiti-themed lyric video for 'New Day' showed that her movement is strong in the streets as well.
Keys hopes to keep the momentum going all the way up to the VMAs and celebrate it with her new single. "I'm in my space and I feel more confident than ever to really just have a crazy, fun time," she says. "It's so exciting to bring people into my world and where I've been and what I've been working on. And there's no better place in the whole wide world than the VMAs to do that, so it's gonna be crazy!"
The 'Fallin' songbird is a VMAs veteran having four moonmen trophies under her belt, including one in 2010 for her New York-themed clip 'Empire State of Mind.'
The MTV Video Music Awards will air live from Los Angeles at 8PM ET on Sept. 6. A full of list of nominees have been announced with Drake and Rihanna leading the pack with five mentions apiece.

Radiation after breast implant
Dear OncoLink "Ask The Experts,"
My 52-year-old mother, who has silicone breast implants, has had a tumor removed from her breast (size 1cm). According to her surgeon, the tumor was a solid mass with "irregular" margins and the breast cancer cells were well differentiated. Her surgeon is recommending mastectomy with lymph node removal. He indicated that this was his recommendation because scientific studies on the efficacy of radiation for breast cancer for women with silicone implants were not abundant enough. Could you please comment or point me in the correct research direction? My family is having a difficult time finding information about breast implants and radiation. Thank you.
Lawrence J. Solin, MD, FACR, Professor of Radiation Oncology at the University of Pennsylvania, responds:
The determination of optimal treatment for the individual patient is complex, and takes into account many patient and tumor factors. The presence of an implant is generally not considered to be an absolute contraindication to breast conservation treatment, although an implant may make such treatment more complicated. Although there are limited studies on outcome after treatment for patients with implants, the biologic behavior for these tumors does not appear to be different than for tumors in patients without implants. Implants generally do not interfere with the effectiveness of the radiation delivery. For the individual patient, a second opinion with a second surgeon as well as a radiation oncologist might be valuable to evaluate these considerations.

An electric atmosphere and overflowing capacity crowd is expected on Friday in Vanceboro when Havelock comes to town to do battle with West Craven one final time this season on the basketball court.
An electric atmosphere and overflowing capacity crowd is expected on Friday in Vanceboro when Havelock comes to town to do battle with West Craven one final time this season on the basketball court.
The meeting will be the fourth, and second in as many weeks, for the rival factions.
The Eagles and Rams are familiar with each other � to say the least.
Havelock head coach Bill Fryczynski must be seeing Josh Cuthbertson and Demetres Abrams in his dreams at night.
�More like in my nightmares,� Fryczynski laughed.
Havelock counters with a balanced attack, featuring five guys (Zack Bruns, Pharoh Cooper, Kyran Bowman, Matt Prichard and D.J. Carter) who are capable of scoring in double-figures.
The Rams came up short of upsetting the Eagles three times this season.
On Jan. 18 in Vanceboro, West Craven won by the largest margin of the three games, 89-76.
Valentine�s Day was no love fest in Havelock, as the Eagles pulled out a 75-68 regular-season finale victory.
On Feb. 21 in Vanceboro, for the Coastal Conference championship, West Craven toughed it out again for a 72-66 win.
�We get another chance at them,� Fryczynski said.
�We had a really tough game Wednesday versus Triton and are having a short practice Thursday to get the guys rested up, but the mood is an up one. The guys feel they are ready.�
As for West Craven, the Eagles played one of the most inspired and determined games of the season Wednesday in a 74-61 victory over Hunt.
The team has had one major goal all season � getting back to Fayetteville and getting another shot at last year�s state champion Rocky Mount, who eliminated the Eagles a season ago in the East Regional semifinals.
However, the Eagles know not to take the Rams lightly.
�I don�t think we will really change too much for this game,� West Craven coach Bryan Goehring said.
�We know their shooters, they know ours. We know their big guys, they know ours. No one is going to grow or get faster before Friday. The only thing I told the guys was not to look past them, be ready 100 percent for Havelock.�
The game is slated for an approximate 8 p.m. tipoff.
The winner of the game will advance to the Eastern Regionals in Fayetteville on March 8.
Eagle girls get shot at redemption
West Craven�s girls� basketball team should have a little added motivation in Friday�s sectional final battle with Rocky Mount.
The Gryphons eliminated the Eagles from the playoffs a season ago in the 3-A Eastern Regional semifinals, and upset No.2 seed Northern Nash 56-53 Wednesday.
West Craven fought through D.H. Conley for its 59-49 sectional semifinal win Wednesday.
�Our team really has a solid focus right now, that we didn�t have before the loss at Conley in the regular season,� West Craven coach David Fernandez said.
�We get one more home game, is the best thing about playing Rocky Mount. It doesn�t matter who or where we play though, we have to treat every game from here out like it is for the state championship.�
Star guard Jamie Cherry has scored 24 and 29 points in two playoff games.
Improved play and increased scoring outputs from seniors Nishedra Brown and Nyeesha Roundtree has helped spearhead the Eagles� team transformation.
The Eagles and Gryphons will get things started at 6:30 p.m. on Friday.
Hurricanes surging onward
Not many people predicted the Pamlico Hurricanes to win two playoff games and be playing for a sectional championship.
Coach Earl Sadler�s young, but talented squad pulled off an upset Wednesday over Wallace-Rose Hill, 67-64, in overtime.
�The guys are just so excited and things have really worked out well for us,� Sadler said.
�Our guards are really settling down and playing great. D.J. (Lewis) had nine assists and only two turnovers against Rose Hill. He�s been playing great for us.�
Next up for Pamlico is a trip to Ayden-Grifton (15-11) who knocked off No.2 seed Goldsboro, in a 57-54 upset Wednesday.
�It�s funny because Josiah (Simmons) came up to me after we beat Wallace-Rose Hill and told me he was glad that we played Croatan and Hoggard (earlier in the season),� Sadler said.
�Ayden-Grifton is a good team. They have good guards and size. Our seniors are really focused and just keep saying they want to win one more game. I think the major and biggest key from here on is going to be whichever team can win the 50-50 balls.�
The winner of the game between the Hurricanes and Chargers will head to Fayetteville for an Eastern Regional semifinal bout Wednesday.

Construction Progress Forces Traffic Flow Changes at 10th and Sycamore
Good news! Progress is being made on the 10th and Sycamore reconstruction project. Bad news! It will still be early October before the barrels are gone.
Phase two will begin on Tuesday evening after the main thrust of the afternoon drive are complete.
According to the City of Sioux Falls and the South Dakota Department of transportation, the contractor will continue work on the south side of 10th Street just west of Sycamore Avenue and start work on the west side of Sycamore Avenue south of 10th Street.
Traffic flow changes are as follows:
• Southbound Sycamore Avenue traffic will be detoured to go west on 10th Street, south on Bahnson Avenue and then east on 18th Street.
• Northbound Sycamore Avenue will be closed to thru traffic at the intersection of 10thStreet. Access to eastbound 10th Street will be provided for northbound Sycamore traffic. Northbound Sycamore traffic waiting to turn west onto 10th Street should follow the signed detour route.
• Traffic on 10th Street will continue to be reduced to one lane in both directions at this intersection.
As will all construction projects in the city, make sure you proceed slowly and carefully through the work zone. If you have the opportunity to use an alternate route, that's okay, too.

Currently, Amarok and Konversation are testing out git to help with KDE's migration. There are also one or two kde-related projects that have started on gitorious (although this is *not* recommended yet!)
First up, a brief description of the Gitorious.org user and permission model:
KDE currently operates the kde-developers and kde-sysadmin teams on Gitorious.org, as well as several <appname>-reviewers teams (e.g. konversation-reviewers. The purpose of each of these can best be illustrated by examining how a KDE project on Gitorious.org has to be set up:
Commit access is thus exclusively handled via kde-developers, and any member of kde-developers can commit to any KDE repository. Getting into kde-developers is done by filing a KDE sysadmin request against the gitorious component, which is then implemented by one of the administrators of the kde-developers team.
The kde-sysadmin team exists for the purpose of making sure KDE's sysadmin squad can edit all KDE repositories on Gitorious.org, to fix issues or help people in a bind.
The '<appname>-reviewers' teams were originally created to be able to remove the 'review' permission bit from kde-developers for all the repositories, because otherwise every kde-developers member got email notifications about every merge request for every project. So someone with no interest in Amarok or Konversation would still get MR mail about them. Project-specific reviewers teams solve that routing problem. The reviewers teams usually have all the core developers from a project as members, and are administrated by one or more key developers.
Now, about those optionally-added key developers with the 'admin' permission bit: Pushing a tag into a repository requires being allowed to do a "force push". Force pushing can be enabled/disabled on a per-repository basis on Gitorious.org by anyone who has the 'admin' permission bit for a repository. As outlined above, this currently means every member of the kde-sysadmin team - as well as one or more key developers from a given project that have been added individually with the 'admin' permission bit. Thus the the main motivation for this is to allow projects to push tags without having to involve KDE's sysadmin team.
FIXME: Is this a KDE project? Why are permissions not set for kde-developers?
http://gitorious.org/+kde-developers has a more up-to-date list of kde-run projects. However, that list includes projects that don't use kde frameworks (like KDE developers' personal projects), and experiments, and isn't sorted in any way. We plan to have a better directory of kde-related projects once git.kde.org is up.

Audrey Young, 89, who was a singer-actress in the 1940s and donated $5 million to the UCLA Hammer Museum in Westwood to create the Billy Wilder Theater in memory of her late husband, died June 1 in Los Angeles. A cause was not given. Her death was announced by the UCLA Film & Television Archives, which calls the theater home.
The Billy Wilder Theater was "the right place, the proper place" for a permanent tribute to her husband because of his longtime love of film and art, Young told The Times in 2003. The couple had long lived in Westwood.
Born Oct. 30, 1922, in Los Angeles, she was a contract player at Paramount appearing in mostly uncredited roles when she met Wilder in 1944 on the set of his film "The Lost Weekend," which starred Ray Milland.
She had just wrapped up a singing engagement with the Tommy Dorsey band when she married Wilder in 1949. Young had roles in more than 20 movies, and sometimes appeared singing solo or in a group, including in such 1940s films as "Out of This World," "Easy Living" and the Bing Crosby vehicle "Blue Skies."
After her marriage, she was in one final movie, "Love Me or Leave Me" (1955) with Doris Day and James Cagney. Young later served as a costume consultant on the Wilder films "Some Like It Hot" (1959) and "The Apartment" (1960).
After her husband died at 95 in 2002, Young returned the legendary filmmaker's six Oscar statuettes to the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences. She wanted to ensure that his Oscars would remain together, according to the academy.

Good day all I see "friend request" The coolest thing about the friend or foe feature is there is no real request. What it ultimately does is allows you to see if your friends are on the board when you log in. When I saw this I knew it was missing something and actually looked at putting a live IM feature on the board. Instead I opted to use the Skype feature that is only seen by members when they are logged in. Just one less thing to slow the board down and it is easy enough to send a quick skype message to chat.
Works pretty nice if you have ever tried it.,

Ziggy Mack @fomoloop
Last week my first cousin from Chile rolled into town. When I have family visiting from South America, I create an agenda of cool stuff to do in Memphis and run our visit like a Disney tour guide hitting all the highlights, magic, and never waiting in line for anything. This visit was different though because my cousin is in a band and they were booked solid with four nights of gigs in which I had to visit around their schedule, not one I put together. This was a return trip for her band, Tomates Rocky, and companion band, Rising Sun Orchestra. They were here in March, met a few key folks, played some gigs and were asked to come back and perform their infectious Chilean psychedelic rock a few more times. They are: Maria Eugenia "Kena" Goldenberg (my cousin), Nico Bowen, Sebastian Bielefeldt, Jose Tomas Herrera, Francisco "Caco" Diaz, Francisco "Chico" Prieto Zanartu, and Gonzalo "Chalo" Salazar. Together, they form the two bands and have been building a U.S. tour which includes stops in Austin, Memphis, Philadelphia, and Charleston. It's important to note that they aren't just your average Chilean psychedelic rock band. Both groups were granted federal funding by Consejo Nacional de la Cultura y las Artes (much like our National Endowment for the Arts) to produce their albums. They are officially considered to be ambassadors of modern Chilean music and are touring the States representing the Shoestring Republic — super choro, which is Chilean slang for "way cool." And they all left behind day jobs and families too ...Kena is an art director, Nico is an architect, there are also businessmen, contractors in the mix and some hold master's degrees from universities here in the U.S. But they also happen to be really good musicians that perform incredibly well together and have a synergy that is truly special — everyone in Memphis felt it, adored it, and wants more of it.
Their gigs were nonstop: Wednesday night at Newby's, Thursday night at Bar DKDC, Friday night at BristerFest, then Saturday at the Hi-Tone. They behaved exactly as young rockers should and they loved every second of their gritty Memphis experience. The Newby's show was ironic because Kena had actually been there back in 1996 when she was in Memphis last for my wedding. We actually smuggled her in (sorry, Todd!) with my wedding party many years ago. Seeing them play where I spent many college nights was beyond surreal. The DKDC show also doubled as a birthday party celebration for my bestie, Lucia Heros, and she got a special rendition of "Feliz Cumpleanos" sung to her by the Chilenos — more on those festivities in a future post. I hired photographer Ziggy Mack to capture those moments and you'll be able to relish his pics in the gallery attached. By happenstance, Don Perry was there too with his camera and his shots are also in the gallery. Friday during the day, I took Caco to Graceland where I strategically placed light pressure on my left eye only because it made the lingering rum drinks from the night before go away ... all while trying to explain what The Jungle Room is to Caco, who was in total shock and awe. We met up with the other roqueros to soak our hangovers at The Four Way Grill where they were introduced to such Southern soul kitchen delights as neck bones, yams, corn bread, and sweet tea. They Were Enthralled ... and Chile has GREAT food. We turned the corner over to STAX and boogied through the museum. I had to chill Friday night but they went on to close BristerFest and blew everyone away. Saturday, we checked out the Vinyl Record Swap in Crosstown put on by Goner Records. They picked up gems from Devo, Johnny Cash, and The Rolling Stones while I carted off with Fleetwood Mac (Bob Welch years), Bryan Ferry, and JJ Cale. After that, they played the Hi-Tone in the ping-pong room and my handful of friends including Megan Barger, Sheryl Butler, and Dewayne Campbell boogied nonstop. Sunday was Mother's Day and it was a real treat to have Kena here with my family celebrating — even though we were feeling the burn of endless PBR's from many nights before.
Monday afternoon the bands came by my house to play an acoustic set for a small gathering of friends and neighbors. The best part was watching my oldest son, John Henry, sit behind the drums and play around with these guys who really nurtured his interest. In Chile, when you become really close to friends, you call them family. These musicians who came to Memphis with my cousin all became my family ... they call me Prima Goose, or Cousin Goose. Totally cool with me. They are all my rocker cousins and I am sure this is not the last U.S. tour they will be embarking on. Salud a Tomates Rocky and Rising Sun Orchestra!
