Ludo Lefebvre, Evan Kleiman and 11 More L.A Chefs Share Food Lessons Learned from Mom + Grandma
While planning that super sweet gesture for mom this Mother's Day -- remember, it's coming up on Sunday -- think back to all the valuable nuggets she taught you over the years. Chances are a lot of them have to do with food, right? That's certainly the case for many chefs, some of whom might have wound up on very different career paths if it weren't for family matriarchs. We've asked some of L.A.'s best pros behind the stoves to share the most important lessons they learned from their moms and/or grandmothers about food and cooking. So turn the page to hear what 13 local chefs (listed in no particular order) have to say about some of their earliest in-home teachings that came via the first ladies in their lives.

Kris Yenbamroong, Night + Market
My Grandma has taught me many things over the years. A lot of her lessons exist as sound bites in my head, e.g., "Always be mindful of the heat. Adjust it constantly, sometimes up, sometimes down." But the one thing that sticks out most in my mind is more of a philosophy and less a cooking lesson, and it's definitely the most obvious. She always made sure that I held "taste" above all other things: concept, technique, even tradition. None of those things matter if it doesn't taste good.
Evan Kleiman, KCRW's "Good Food"
The most important thing I learned from my mom about food was how to cook it. Not using Julia Child, or show-off cooking. Just everyday, day in and day out, simple cooking. Cleaning and preparing vegetables for salad and sides, making roasts and chops, spaghetti sauce. Every weekend we would make a couple of dishes for the week. She basically gave me kitchen literacy on which I was able to build through my interest in cookbooks and Julia Child. In the 1950s learning the basics of cooking was like learning how to spell and do times tables. You just did it.
Jose Sarinana, Xoia Vietnamese Eats
Mom taught us that there is nothing wrong with a burnt tortilla -- as long as the beans are fried just right.
Susan Sarich, SusieCakes
My grandmothers Madeline and Mildred were a huge inspiration for SusieCakes, and I used their recipes that they passed down to me as the basis for many of our homestyle desserts. The most important thing I learned from my grandmother Madeline was to always prepare a dish while considering the people you will be serving it to. She put love into everything she made, and that is something you can always taste. The most important thing I learned from my grandmother Mildred was to keep it simple! The best dishes are often those with the least ingredients, and it's important to keep in mind that a recipe doesn't need to be complicated or difficult to be great tasting. Both of their lessons remain with me every day.
Govind Armstrong, Post & Beam, Willie Jane
Clean as you go. I always loved cooking, and she was the one who entertained a lot and always had people over. So I just enjoyed helping her and spending time with her in the kitchen. But the kitchen would be a disaster; it drove her crazy. And we would always garden as a family. She instilled in me to just grow your own.
Ricky Piña, Ricky's Fish Tacos
Grandma taught me food was a blessing, and that we shouldn't leave it or waste it. And Mom would tell us -- after thanking her for cooking a delicious meal -- you deserve it because you worked hard for it! And now when I cook I remember those phrases, and I feel I'm cooking for family.
Nyesha Arrington, Wilshire Restaurant
Perhaps the single most important thing my mom taught me about cooking is planning ahead. The day of cooking you should ideally have most of your preparation done so that you can enjoy time with family. When I would come home from school my mom usually had fresh Rice Krispie treats, or homemade ice cream sandwiches. My sister and I were always impressed with how easy she made it seem.

drum roll please….
30 September, 2009
drum roll please…….I'm very happy to present the new prints from eco peko.
Already selling at biome – Brisbane, Cheeki Kids – West Beach S.A, Gecoz -Bellingen, Pink Fly – Yarragon Vic, Tribe – Mossman QLD, Weekends – Subiaco W.A, Whoops A Daisy – Castlemaine Vic, these limited edition prints are proving to be quite popular.
The first eco angel, is actually a print from last year (back by popular demand!). It is for all our little angels and has cute butterfly wings on the back. This print is only available in natural.
The next print is a bee themed, super hero print. The bee's wings on the back of the shirt are a very subtle silver/grey. This print comes in both green and natural.
The next two prints, I love and I have been so excited to get them out there…the fact that, not everyone gets 'em, makes them even more special.
The first, FRANKIE SAY RECYCLE is a hats off to Katherine Hamnett's (the queen of green and slogan scene ) legendary FRANKIE SAY RELAX shirt from the 80′s. It comes in both natural and green.
The next 'my other shirt is a hybrid'. Inferring that the other shirt is more eco than this one (or a hybrid car), is cute to me.
These tops have had a limited run, so if they take your fancy, snap em up, as they won't be around long……..
Get Green
14 September, 2009
Cotton is a huge industry, providing half of the worlds fibers, making it an essential component of foreign earnings for more than 55 countries. It is also the most chemical dependent crop in the world accounting for 10% of chemical pesticides and 22% of all insecticides. That's 8 times more than what's used on an average food crop.
According to the World Health Organization (WHO);
- 20,000 people die every year from accidental pesticide poisoning via conventional cotton farming.
- 100,000 more suffer from pesticide poisoning.
Pesticides aside, the manufacture process from seed to shirt is riddled with a variety of hazardous chemicals, including formaldehyde dyes, chlorine bleaches, industrial detergents and sulphuric acid. These end up down the drain, in the air and in the cotton itself.
Organic cotton on the other hand is;
- Good for the environment, for now and the future.
- Good for cotton farmers, manufacturers and our health.
- Good for farmer's income. They don't have to pay for expensive agricultural chemicals. Also, farmers get up to a 50% increase in their income when growing organically, allowing them to better feed, clothe and educate their children and at the same time, keeping our children healthy.
- A production system that replenishes and maintains soil fertility. Encouraging a healthy ecosystem for future generations and us.
- The purest and most natural form of cotton available (we believe it's softer and easier on your skin as well!)
eco peko believes that the good health of our planet is good business. We bring you products from a line that is committed to sustainability, recycling, non-chemical alternatives and practicing fair trade.
We leave our ecological footprints behind us in the way in which we live our lives. As producers or consumers, we have choices to make. We can make a difference.
Treat the earth well : it was not given to you by your parents,
it was loaned to you by your children.
We do not inherit the Earth from our ancestors,
we borrow it from our children.

Taste Like Greece
Sial 2012
Taste Like Greece is an initiative from the Hellenic Foreign Trade Board, designed to promote Greek F&B products internationally. The exhibitors' catalogue for Greece's participation in Sial 2012 (Paris) is designed in way that apart from being a repository of contact details, wishes to underline the quality of Greek products and Greek producers seeking their share of the global market. Bound in the style of classic seventies cookbooks, the catalogue is abstract and lean, almost colourless, with a custom-made cliché without printing for the cover illustration. The catalogue was distributed free to visitors and exhibitors at Sial.
The Hell Gate Photography
The Hellgate is a syndication platform and a collective, based in New York, which discovers and represents contemporary photography talent, inspired by the music scene.

Inspired by every corner of Greece, by every kitchen, by the joyful moments of our people, it symbolizes a plate, the table around which the family gathers, the Sundays of the Greeks, the circle of friends. The main ideas conveyed in all applications (from the t-shirts and memorabilia to the environmental graphics for trade shows and the exhibitors' catalogues) is that despite of the crisis, Greek producers are trustworthy and that Greek products are of high quality and deserve a share in the international markets.

By Jayette Bolinski, Illinois Watchdog
Illinois political insider William Cellini was sentenced Thursday to a year in federal prison, former Gov. Rod Blagojevich's crony to be sentenced on federal corruption-related charges from the "Operation Board Games" probe.
Cellini, a powerful Springfield multimillionaire known as the "King of Clout" and "the Pope," was accused of trying to shake down Hollywood producer Thomas Rosenberg for Blagojevich campaign contributions in exchange for state contracts to invest money for the Teachers Retirement System.
Federal prosecutors sought six and a half years to eight years in prison, while Cellini's attorneys requested probation for their 77-year-old client, who has been in poor health. Hundreds of supporters wrote letters on Cellini's behalf asking federal Judge James Zagel for leniency. Zagel sentenced Cellini to 366 days in prison and a $75,000 fine. Under federal sentencing guidelines, Cellini may serve only about 10 months in prison.
Cellini was caught on wiretaps in 2004 participating in a plot to get $1.5 million from Rosenberg, the Oscar-winning producer, investment firm owner and friend of Cellini, in exchange for state contracts. Rosenberg refused and threatened to notify authorities. In all, 15 men, including Stuart Levine, Tony Rezko and Chris Kelly, were indicted as part of the federal investigation. Kelly committed suicide in 2009. Rezko and Levin received prison sentences.

Davette Brown
My name is Davette Brown and I am 36 years old. I started T-Tapp in February 2004. I finally had enough space in my tiny apartment to do the exercises. I did Instructional 1, wondering the whole time if I was doing it correctly. I was sweating buckets after the first workout, and my knees were hurting from doing the Plies. Next night I cut the reps on the plies from 8 to 4.
After 4 days I switched to Basic Workout + and increased the plies to 6. I didn't feel any different at first, then one night at Bible Study after sitting for an hour, I went to stand up for closing song and prayer. Usually I have to move slowly because after an hour I am stiff and sore, but I noticed this night as I started moving in slow motion, I realized that my knees and back weren't hurting! I also took a sneak look at my measurements and 12 inches were gone!
On day 7 I measured and 20.5 inches were GONE! I had to send my measurements to my mom and have her double check them. After 6 weeks, my total inch loss is 40" and I went from a size 24/2X top and 26/3X bottom to a total size 20. I even got workout clothes in XL-Target XL not Lane Bryant XL! I feel better not achy and stiff all of the time. Did I mention I didn't change my diet? Now I don't drink soda and I drink at least 4-5 liters of water a day, I didn't make any changes when I started Tapping. My mom couldn't understand how I could lose even when I was eating ice cream at her house every weekend [and real ice cream too-not low fat or sugar free]. She couldn't believe that the instructions said not to diet when you get started.
I got to wear some clothes that I couldn't fit before, including a suit that still had the tags on it, and some clothes that I haven't worn in a while. My son likes to encourage me with "T-Tapp Hugs" and he recites most of the workout for me if I am doing it without a tape. He likes to do Hoedowns and Thread the Needle. My favorite is T-Tapp Twist, because I get a real good crack in my back that always makes me feel good.
If anyone is sitting on the fence or has the tapes and hasn't done them yet-TRY THEM!!! You have nothing to lose but inches and everything to gain.

I really do enjoy Apples products - from my early iPod, my Apple TV and my iPhone - I couldn't be happier with their products.
However, the one REALLY annoying part of the Apple eco-system is that iTunes.
I've never 'got it' - I find it really unintuitive and generally hard work to do backups, restores etc via iTunes.
I was hoping that I could do everything in the cloud with the new iCloud, however, you can't backup things like videos (which is the main reason I want to do a backup) so that's out of the window.
I really wish they'd get some better software and/or set it up so that you can opt out of iTunes and use something different - its the one thing that is holding me back from going all Apple with my hardware.
Come on Apple, sort it out! Or am I the only person that has a problem with iTunes?

Strep B + Incompetent Workers + NEED HELP NOW!
Here is a link to my previous post:
On Wednesday 1/30/08 I went to a walk-in clinic and was seen by a Nurse Practitioner, but she did not tell us her title when she introduced herself, which ****** me off (I know they don't have to but I really needed to see a DOCTOR). Anyway, after my above posted symptoms, I started getting sicker. Swollen lymph nodes, very stiff neck, horrible headaches, tiredness, muscle weakness. She tested me for mono and strep. The rapid strep test came back negative, and on Friday, the results for mono also came back negative. But on Sunday, they called again and said that I DID have strep and called in some antibiotics (Penicillin VK 250mg twice a day). I thought that would fix me, BOY WAS I WRONG! On Thursday night, my fever went from normal, to 101 within a matter of minutes. I was chilling horribly, despite the amount of blankets I was using to try to get to sleep. I also got my headache back, and was very weak. This morning I woke up and felt ok, but after attending my school activity today (knowledge not athletic) I could feel my fever spiking again. After the competition was over, one of my teachers let me go home because she knew I looked sick. I get home and my fever is 100.3. My headache was also getting worse again. My mom calls the clinic again, and they told her that I had strep B and they don't treat it there even though they prescribed me antibiotics for it there. So the earliest appointment with my PCP I could get is Monday. I looked up the disease, and found out the antibiotics I am currently taking are resistant against strep group B. I'm very scared because the people that usually contract this disease are elderly, and pregnant women. Most do not have symptoms. I'm very ill and getting weaker by the day. I need some input on what I should do, because this should not happen to a normal healthy person like me.
Some other info:
Swollen lymph nodes
Stiff Neck
Muscle Weakness (getting worse and worse)
Strep B positive
16 years of age and athletic
Lost about 4 pounds in the last couple of weeks or so
4.1 rbc as of 1/25/08
This disease usually shows symptoms in immunocompromised people. Unless I have a condition I do not know about, I don't know why I'm getting symptoms this bad. Please give me your input, I'm very worried considering the death rate of the disease.
I know this is long but PLEASE HELP ME.

Re: Strep B + Incompetent Workers + NEED HELP NOW!
Can you call your doctor's office and tell them you have a stiff neck, fever, headache, fatigue, and are getting weaker and weaker by the hour? Are you feeling sleepy or somnolent? If so, please tell them.
It seems to me that they should be willing to see you sooner, perhaps even today.
This could be a bacterial meningitis, and if so, you really do need to be in the hospital.
Part of your post is titled: NEED HELP NOW
And it does sound like you really need help now, not Monday, if this is meningitis. They need to be making sure it isn't.
I am sorry you are not feeling well. I hope you can get help soon.

Re: Strep B + Incompetent Workers + NEED HELP NOW!
As far as the strep B goes ..up to 25% of women have been found to have it (so it's VERY COMMON). It is tested for in pregnancy as can be harmful to baby, (usually dont cause any issues at all for the one carrying it)......so it's usually only treated then just before birth, so baby during birth wont be effected. It is hard to permanently get rid of as it usually comes back.
It does only cause trouble in immunocompromised patients etc so may not in your case be the case of your condition. You may just be one of the 25% of people who carry this.
As it showed up on an vaginal swab when i was getting checked for STDS.. my doctor when I asked her for it to be treated, did give me the antibiotics thou i aint pregnant (and she checked to make sure it was the correct one), due to me having CFS.
As I also had a staph infection as well.. we killed two stones in the one go one could say. Doctor gave me erythromycin to treat the two bacterias.. and it did seem to work on both the different infections i have, my next tests came back negative.
(I dont know if I've got the strep B back, I now have what is probably a staph infection in my leg so that's come back yet again. As doctor thought the staph probably wouldnt respond to antibiotic even thou i'd been tested, to make sure the staph infection wasnt resistant to that antiboitic. So I decided to take olive leaf extract as well, which helps to kill bacteria at the same time as taking the antibiotic. So it could of been the olive leaf extract which got rid of the Strep B rather than the antibiotic).
If you do have CFS.. it is likely you have bacterial infections in your body of various types, most of us CFSers do... and some of these infections can make us worst
. ............. I too was thinking about meningitis on hearing about your stiff neck as I remember a friends daughter one time being rushed to hospital as she had developed that while i was over visiting, (but her meningitis came on very very fast!)
Anyway, so I just looked up meningitis to see if that can come on slow and what other symptoms it causes. I dont want to worry you but when I looked it up, I found a relationship between that and STREP B.
."Group B Streptococci. Limulus lysates may be positive in Gram-negative meningitis" http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Meningitis
Did you mention to doctor the other day that you have a stiff neck? If not and this is a sudden development.. I think you maybe should go to the hospital or ring a doctor right away and speak to them about it all.Last edited by taniaaust1; February 9th, 2008 at 03:00 AM.

I was dismayed to hear on the news some prediction of home heating fuels doubling in price by 2010, the cost being somehow attributed to the cost of conforming to the Kyoto agreement.
I thought the prices were already high enough, thank you very much
So as a result of that, I've been wondering where do our basic human rights cut in and supercede this Kyoto Krapola? In most of Canada, there is a need, and it should be a right to heat your home for a good portion of the year. Taxes on the fuels used in that manner should be refunded.
Attempting to exact some sort of environmental penalty from a homeowner exercising a basic human right is an atrocity. Its akin to taxing the air you breathe out, because there is CO2 in it. It is akin to taxing your groceries.
It may be that some sort of 'basic unit of home heating' needs to be derived as a basis for the tax free threshold on fuel consumption.
Maybe I'm over-reacting?
First you get good, then you get fast. Then grouchiness sets in.
(Note: The opinions expressed in this post are my own and are not necessarily those of CNCzone and its management)
Maybe I should start buying up scrap magnesium doodads and spend my evenings turning them into chips. I hear that stuff burns pretty good, might be the new fuel of choice for machinists ?
First you get good, then you get fast. Then grouchiness sets in.
(Note: The opinions expressed in this post are my own and are not necessarily those of CNCzone and its management)
It would be a better economic proposition to sell the scrap magnesium and use the income to buy fuel oil.
Or depending on how many machines you have building, your house above the shop and run 24 hour shifts so you get the waste heat from the machines.
That would have the added advantage you would be so irritated by the machine noise and so stressed out by running a business 24 hours a day you wouldn't have time to fuss about Kyoto taxes.
This could be an incentive for building an eolic plant (plenty of DIY designs) and fitting it mostly with dump loads. Revise the isolation of the home and maybe using existing and new forms for home heating.
Have you heard of infrared heating panels?
Have you heard about the Zero-Point energy? Its interesting. Concerning heating things up there is a water heater that allegedly uses less energy to create steam from water, the output heat is greater in sum that the energy put into the electric motor that spins the device. You could find many videos about this on Youtube.
By 2010 things are going to be so bad that the perspective of paying taxes wont even be on the horizon. The Sun's activity is building up and is going to peak by 2012, which is coincidentally the end date of the Aztec's calendar. The Sun activity affects everything, with the global warming being only one of the issues, the sanity of man is another issue, with more wars on the horizon the global tension could well explode into the ww3.
I know my reply is apocalyptic happy and goes beyond your topic and imho the alternative energy sources are worth checking.
You Canadians only think of your own comfort. What about the bunnies?
I would love to see several websites based on the idea that warm is good:
Swift Vets for Truth on John Kerry and Global Warming
You can get free power from the earth just by flying a kite on the end of a wire. And you can get free power from thermocouples, too.
Now that's alternative energy.
I'm going to start selling carbon credits to fund my solar array of 400million Type R thermocouples that will power my porch light.
And I thought my two posts were flippant and not helpful. Obviously I am well out of the running.
Your not, because taxes on conventional fuels should be offset by tax breaks and allowances on alternative fuels.
The people in developed countries no longer control their destinys and democracy is a veil and is becoming essentially a myth. The politicians are either so removed from average everyday life, or so entwined in their donation contributors pockets that they pass laws just for the sake of passing laws and maintaining the veil of necessity for their position. Protests and marches do nothing because the politicians dont care. Do you really think that Joe Minister on 1/4 million per year cares if you walk outside his office for an hour, in the rain, with a wooden placard?
Over here we had manageable (As in we could make the payments) energy prices until a few years ago when they introduced an 'Energy Regulator'. Seemed like a good idea at the time, but it's since proven that the regulator is only there to rubber stamp and provide an air of necessity to the consecutive price increases we have suffered.
Oil prices went up --- energy prices went up.
Oil prices came down --- energy prices went up.
We have since learned that the government has been artificially increasing energy prices in order to attract private companies and competition into the Irish energy market.....
.....Now thats a misnomer if ever I heard one....we want competition to reduce prices but the prices are so low no private companies will come in, so lets pump up the prices by 100's of % until we have private competition, then they might drop by a few tens of %. This is not a joke, its what they've done in Ireland for the last 7 or 8 years. When will they learn....PRIVATISING PUBLIC UTILITIES DOESN'T WORK!!!!
At least it doesn't work in a very small and limited economy like Irelands. There is just not enough people to have effective competition in large scale operations.
The people we elect dont give a damn about us, pollution, or anything else.
For some things I'm an optimist, for others, I'm a pessimist, what ya gonna do!
Off topic, sorry.

Underwater archaeologist claims to have found evidence for Noah's Ark
Archaeologist previously famous for discovering remains of Titanic in 1985
Underwater archaeologist Robert Ballard, famed for discovering the Titanic back in 1985, has claimed to have found evidence for an even more historically significant ship - Noah's Ark from the Old Testament. According to the bible, Noah fled and floated upon the waters for 40 days and 40 nights. Ballard says that the Black Sea was once merely a freshwater lake, until an enormous wall of water from the Mediterranean 200 times more powerful than Niagara Falls swept it and everything else away, Noah, his ark and all.
Some archaeologists have supported the story of Noah, citing similar details passed along in narratives from Mesopotamian times, notably "the Epic of Gigamesh."
Ballard's team is studying the Black Sea off the coast of Turkey in search of a civilization lost since biblical times. The recent dig is in response to two Columbia University scientists who say they have connected the end of an Ice Age, when frozen sheets covered North America and stretched to the North Pole.
When they melted, yielding the Earth's terrain the world is familiar with today, what happened to the water?
"The questions is, was there a mother of all floods?" Ballard asks.
Through carbon dating of shells found on an ancient shoreline 400 feet beneath the surface of the Black Sea, scientists have established a timeline for that catastrophic event that happened around 5,000 B.C., Ballard estimates. Some experts believe this was around the time when Noah's flood could have occurred.
Some archaeologists have supported the story of Noah, citing similar details passed along in narratives from Mesopotamian times, notably "the Epic of Gigamesh."
"The earlier Mesopotamian stories are very similar where the gods are sending a flood to wipe out humans," biblical archaeologist Eric Cline says. "There's one man they choose to survive. He builds a boat and brings on animals and lands on a mountain and lives happily ever after? I would argue that it's the same story."
Ballard claims that his team has found not just the shore and the shells, but pottery and even shipwrecks, evidence. Ballard doubts that Noah's Ark itself will ever turn up.
"It's foolish to think you will ever find a ship," Ballard told ABC News. "But can you find people who were living? Can you find their villages that are underwater now? And the answer is yes."

The Bible doesn't say, Noah floated on the waters for 40 days and nights... that's how long it rained on the Earth. The Bible shows that Noah and his family was on the Ark for about 10 months before they saw dry land... that is NOT a regional flood. Also, experts believe the Flood occurred about 2345 B.C... that's about 4300 yrs. ago, not 5,000 yrs. ago. There are fossilized clams on nearly every mountain on Earth as evidence of a worldwide Flood. There is also salt water on mountains. The BILLIONS of fossils are also evidence for the worldwide Flood, as the creatures were preserved, including soft-bodied creatures (i.e. jelly fish) when the Great Flood quickly covered them with tonnage of mud. They sure don't fit with evolution... those "missing links" are still missing, and the Archaeopteryx was a unique bird, just like the Dodo.
The Holy Bible can be trusted, historically. -

PS to Mr Henderson: sea shells certainly can be carbon-dated.
You can have it sone here: http://www.radiocarbon.com/carbon-dating-shells.htm
Perhaps you are thinking of this:
"scientists have discovered that one commonly used shell can produce apparent dates thousands of years older than the event that exposed them."
As JoeNavy says . . . nice try. -

Well of course the significance of the story is the care of God for Noah and his family, it isn't meant to be an academic dissertation on geology; that's Fundamentalism's error. In any event, I have read elsewhere that the same word which is usually rendered as "land" in the OT is the same word used in the Noah story, but is often rendered or understood as "world," due to traditional interpretation. In other words, when Scripture says that a flood covered "all the land," it means it as nation, or district, or some other area more or less ambiguous: much as in the phrase, "stranger in a strange land": surely this does not suggest interplanetary travel, does it? (Except in the Heinlein novel of that name, of course.) Or the more modern song title, "This land is your land," which certainly does not suggest the entire world is ours.
Sometime about the year 300, I believe it was St. Augustine of Hippo who made the observation that if Scripture seems to tell us one thing, and the clear evidence of our eyes tells us something else, we must change our understanding of what Scripture is trying to teach us: an ancient lesson forgotten by Fundamentalists, and by skeptics as well.
JoeNavy . . . nice try.

"The flood was world-wide"
Except for how it wasn't because at that time the pyramids where being built and Asian civilizations were building documented empires that never recorded a global flood...nice try. -

Scripture and Tradition (as well as science) make it very clear that the Flood waters covered the entire earth, not just a lake somewhere, as the modernists suggest.
11 months ago
The title of this article is misleading, at best. He never claimed to have found the ark, and says that it would be foolish to expect to. All he claims to have found was evidence of a large flood in that area. Even if there was a flood, it proves only that there was a flood. Not the myth of Noah's Ark.
To answer the question of where the water went, it went into the oceans, just as it is now.
By the way, you can't carbon date shells.

Sony has just released a firmware update for the PS3 that supposedly improves the stability of some of the games. When gamers got word their minds drifted immediately to the supposed issues that GTA4 has had on the PS3 console. Unfortunately word has it that the update does not affect GTA4 whatsoever. Once more information is available, we will bring it to you.
According to Sony:
[We] just want to clarify that this upcoming firmware update isn't related to GTA IV. For those of you who may still have an issue playing the game on your PS3, we have identified a solution that should resolve the issue. You can contact SCEA Consumer Services for support…
So to dumb it down, this update won't fix issues with GTA4 but there is a solution. Personally I have never had a problem with GTA4 on my PS3 but one of my buddies have so the game is not 100% faulty.

If you could have any job, regardless of education required or salary, what would it be and why?
What skills do you think you need to succeed in this job and what education do you need?
Do you want to be a nurse? Or a chef? Or a racecar driver?
No matter what you want to be, choosing a career means answering many questions. It's important to match your personality, strengths, and education to your career. What are the top ten things you think you should consider when choosing a career?
Click here to print the Top Ten Worksheet, where you can list your thoughts.
What do the experts think you should consider when choosing a career?
Click here to compare your top ten to the experts' top ten. How are they different? How are they the same?
Now think about the careers you are interested in. How much do you already know about them? To learn more, check out the Occupational Outlook Handbook at http://www.bls.gov/oco.
The Handbook describes what specific workers do, working conditions, the training and education needed, earnings, and expected job prospects.
If you want to be a nurse, your strengths and talents probably lie in caring for others. If you've chosen to be a racecar driver, then you need to have a daredevil attitude.
If you don't know what career you are interested in, but know that your strengths lie in a specific subject area (e.g., math, music/arts, science, reading, social studies, or PE/outdoors), visit the Bureau of Labor Statistics Career Information at http://www.bls.gov/home.htm.

HoopsHype Michael Beasley rumors
As an organization, the Heat are loyal, and Heat coach Erik Spoelstra referred to Beasley as family. "I pretty much know what this organization is all about," Beasley says. "It's a world-class organization, not to say anything bad about any other organization. Me, at this point in my life and my career, I just didn't need to guess anymore. This is the perfect place for me. I just didn't have to deal with uncertainty. "It's a blessing. I'm humbled by it. I'm grateful that they still even care." USA Today Sports
And longtime Heat coaches and officials will tell you the organization has never had a more professional core of players. "I always think that the strongest force on a team is peer pressure," Battier said. "No one wants to be the outlier and look like an idiot. And if you come here and you act like an idiot, you're really on the outside. It goes back to culture. Guys want to fit in. And when you see everyone come to work, be professional, do their jobs, play hard, have a good time, you buy in. That's the strength of this group." Bleacher Report
"I'm actually scared to go in public sometimes, because [of] that same eerie feeling I had coming into the locker room," Beasley said. "You don't know. But walking around downtown, and just going to the event last night, everybody loves me. All I get is 'Welcome back.' 'Happy to have you.' 'Let's get a threepeat.' "Just to have that type of love, walking around the city outside of the arena, it's the cherries on top." Bleacher Report
Beasley has said repeatedly, and did again Sunday, that he was edgy about re-entering the Heat environment. "I kind of came in with an eerie feeling, kind of scared and nervous, as to how they were going to accept me," Beasley said. "But everybody from D-Wade to UD to Mario (Chalmers) to Joel (Anthony) and even LeBron (James), everybody's just taken me in as their little brother. It just feels good to be wanted. To actually be somewhere where they want to have you." Bleacher Report
But Beasley, Heat coach Erik Spoelstra and team officials said the wound above Beasley's right eye was the result of an inadvertent blow he took from Pistons forward Jonas Jerebko as he attempted to block a shot in the third quarter, not from a self-inflicted punch. "I watched the video, and it does look like I knocked the mess out of myself," Beasley said before Friday's preseason game against the Charlotte Bobcats at the Sprint Center. "I had everybody in the world calling me and asking, 'Why you so crazy?'" ESPN.com
Beasley said Friday he doesn't need to cause any distractions or draw any negative attention to himself in his second opportunity in Miami. "I'm coming into a delicate situation," Beasley said. "It's not pressure, but it is a little more to think about. I don't want to be the reason the ship falls. I'm definitely taking it more serious than my first two years." ESPN.com
Joseph Goodman: Heat saying Beasley was elbowed in addition to him punching himself. Beas: "I watched the video and it do look like I knocked myself out." Twitter @JoeGoodmanJr
Upset with himself over missing a shot, Beasley started punching himself in the head while running back on defense. He punched himself so hard that he needed treatment after the game from the Heat's trainer. Steel compresses (like the ones cut doctors use in boxing) were applied to Beasley's brow in the locker room. Miami Herald
Guido Guida: 6-10 F Michael Beasley (Miami Heat) parted ways with Jeff Schwartz and he's now represented by Jared Karnes (A3 Allegiant Athletic Agency) Twitter
Wade continues to push and prod Michael Beasley during camp. "Now that he's got a couple of days in Miami Heat training camp, he sees it's a little different than he's experience the last few years," Wade said of Beasley, who broke into the NBA with the Heat in 2008 but has split the past three seasons between the Minnesota Timberwolves and Phoenix Suns. "But he'll be fine. I think he's coming around." South Florida Sun-Sentinel
After the pilot of "Bringing Up Beasley" fell so flat, does the Heat organization have the patience to produce a second episode? "I'm happy he's back, and I think he's the spark plug that this team needed from a talent standpoint." Dwyane Wade said. "I always say, Michael's greatness is on Michael. How great he wants to be will be predicated on him. So we will all see." Bleacher Report
"Everybody embraced me," Beasley said of his Heat teammates, some old and some new, following his first practice of his second tenure. "D-Wade stayed in my ear the whole time." Bleacher Report
Beasley on playing time, considering he might not play at all: "I can't control minutes. I ain't got no minutes in my pocket and I don't got no crazy cell-phone plan." Beasley on the Bahamas: "What else is there to see? It took us like an hour to get here from the airport and all I seen is a gas station." Miami Herald
Q: To me, at the veteran minimum, Quentin Richardson is the perfect replacement to Mike Miller. He can knock down the open shot and play some pretty tough defense, as well. Yes, he is four years older, but all he has to do is play Mike Miller minutes. -- Marc, Pembroke Pines. A: Which is another reason why, with his non-guaranteed contract, Beasley very much is on a tryout. There remain other options the Heat could cycle through, need be. South Florida Sun-Sentinel
Mark Deeks: To confirm - it's an exhibit 9, so it's not going on the spreadsheet - Michael Beasley is fully unguaranteed with no guarantee date. Twitter @MarkDeeksNBA
Mario Chalmers: Well well well the homie is back. I want every heat fan to welcome back my brotha @easyst0 aka mr buckets back to Miami. We focused Twitter
Net Daily: With Miami adding Beasley, #Nets now closer to being NBA's oldest roster. Heat still oldest but adding Oden, Beasley making them younger. Twitter @NetsDaily

Hi I have an ArduCopter and I want to modify it's motor and battery to make it:
Control payload of max. 10kg
Fly at least 3 hours
Please advice how should I calculate it. Is there any formula for calculation of needed battery and propeller or motor?
I'm not an expert in electronics, I just have good skill in Unix operating system and C programming. So please share with me your expert ideas. I want to know what Kv motor I'll need (4x of it) and what battery would be required (like I got 5200 mA).
Looking to read your expert comments/ideas...
You indicated the "Nemesis" has a maximum lift of 10 kg and with the supplied batteries can last 45 minutes with the camera you using.
1. What's the flying weight of the octo with everything (i.e., electronics, frame, batteries, etc) except camera?
2. What's the weight of the camera you were using in the sentient video?
3. Maximum amount of payload will be the difference of 10kg and the answer to the 1st question, right?
I am hoping to do a max payload test today in a gymnasium with no wind so I can get more accurate figures for everybody. I am using a GoPro camera which is very light to get longer flight times.
1. Flying weight is 15.6lbs / 7.076kg. That is including everything but the camera (APM, telemetry, wireless video tx, 2 x 7800mah batteries, props, landing gear, etc)
2. I use one of two cameras when filming. Either I use the GoPro (.37lbs / .167kg) or my Canon T3i (1.73lbs / .783kg)
3. I will post an exact figure and video to this forum when I run the test today using 3s batteries. I should also note that it will also depend on the batteries you run. If you stick with 3s you will have great motor efficiency but reduced payload. 4s batteries will provide more lift but at a reduced motor efficiency. The theoretical static thrust output of the Nemesis running 3s batteries is 25.5lbs / 11.6kg with 82% efficiency. The theoretical static thrust output of the Nemesis running 4s batteries is 43.12lbs / 19.6kg with 80% efficiency.
As I stated in the previous comment... Is the Nemesis capable of lifting that weight? Yes... but it is not a practical scenario because the flight time would be quite short.
Will be looking forward to the results of your test.
Meanwhile, Using a gopro or canon, the overall flying weight considering everything are 7.243 and 7.859 kgs. You indicated lifting 7.243 kg (go-pro configuration) you got 45 minutes flying time. With the canon configuration, what's your observed flying time?
Unfortunately I did not have time for the payload test this weekend. I was busy preparing for some volunteer work for a non-profit search and rescue organization. Sentient Drone is going to volunteer the use of a Nemesis for searches using thermal imaging from above. I have one last prep flight before a mock search and rescue next weekend. I will try to get a payload test for you at that time using the 3s batteries, but I imagine it will be pretty close to the theoretical values.
