What caused Abraham Lincoln's mother's death?
In 1818 an attack of milk sickness struck the Little Pigeon Creek community. This is a disease contracted by drinking milk from cows which have grazed on poisonous white snakeroot. Both of the Sparrows died, and Thomas Lincoln made the coffins for them. Nancy took ill also. For a week she struggled, but she knew she was failing. Dennis Hanks, Nancy's cousin, recalled that she called the children to her bedside and asked them to be good and kind to their father, to each other, and to the world. On October 5, 1818, Nancy Hanks Lincoln passed away at the age of 34. In later years, Abraham would recall helping to carve pegs for his mother's coffin. Thomas Lincoln hauled the coffin, which was made of green pine, on a sled to the top of a thickly wooded hill and buried Nancy without a formal funeral service. Several months later, the Reverend David Elkins preached a funeral sermon above Nancy's grave.

As if we need another reason to lace up our running shoes: Two new studies supported by the National Cancer Institute show that plenty of vigorous exercise can lower breast cancer risk in women.
The results of the first study of more than 30,000 post-menopausal women found that engaging in strenuous activity could cut the risk of breast cancer by up to 30%. The findings was observed both in women who had an increased risk for breast cancer (due to factors such as weight) and those who had no additional risk other than age – with lean women benefiting the most.
Not all activity was protective, however. Light housework, walking and easy jogging offered no protective benefit. The protective mechanism is thought to be the lowering of circulating estrogen caused by vigorous activity ranging from running to strenuous housework.
In a second study, exercise plus adequate sleep reduced the risk of cancer in women by up to 20 percent. This study is particularly interesting because it showed the protective effect of exercise can be cancelled out by failing to get enough sleep.
The study tracked nearly 6,000 women for almost 10 years. Based on data reported by the subjects themselves, women who fell into the upper half of physical activity showed about a 20% reduction in cancer risk compared to the less active group. However, for those 65 or younger, sleeping less than seven hours per night negated much of the benefit. But compared to the less active half of study subjects, the short sleep group still experienced a reduction in cancer risk, albeit at a lower rate. Sleep habits alone did not correlate with cancer risk.
So it would seem that common sense in our daily habits still prevails. A combination of exercise (the more vigorous the better) and adequate rest remains an important ingredient in maintaining women's health and protecting against cancer risk.

To the People of the United States:
John Fitzgerald Kennedy, 35th President of the United States, has been taken from us by an act which outrages decent men everywhere.
He upheld the faith of our fathers, which is freedom for all men. He broadened the frontiers of that faith, and backed it with the energy and the courage which are the mark of the Nation he led.
A man of wisdom, strength, and peace, he moulded and moved the power of our Nation in the service of a world of growing liberty and order. All who love freedom will mourn his death.
As he did not shrink from his responsibilities, but welcomed them, so he would not have us shrink from carrying on his work beyond this hour of national tragedy.
He said it himself: "The energy, the faith, the devotion which we bring to this endeavor will light our country and all who serve it-and the glow from that fire can trul ...read full document

Australian fast bowler Jackson Bird, who flew back home to have scans on his back, has been ruled of the Test series going on in India after scans confirmed a back injury. Bird, who was part of the Australia squad touring India, played in the the warm-up game against the Board President XI although he was not selected for the opening Test in Chennai. Australia team doctor Peter Brukner said the fast bowler complained of a low level back pain and it was decided that the best course of action would be to send him to Australia to get an assessment done. However, Bird's scan results revealed an injury - the intensity of which will be known only after further tests - which has ruled him out of action. Australia have not announced any replacement for the injured Bird. Peter Siddle, Mitchell Starc, James Pattinson and Moises Henriques were the quicks who played in the opening Test against India while Mitchell Johnson - the only other pacer in the squad - warmed the bench.

Like many, my interest in photography was sparked as a child by my parents; both of whom were keen amateur photographers. I had a choice between being bored as they took forever to get from a to b taking pictures of anything and everything or join them. My parents were wise to this and ensured that I was equipped with a camera early on. There was then a prolonged gap when I left home, where I took hardly any photographs at all. Then came the digital age and my interest was rekindled. So here I am now, since getting a D-SLR my camera and I have been pretty much inseparable. I have been on a voyage of discovery: relearning techniques long forgotten and others never before experienced. In November 2008 I was awarded the...

text: Radiance In Louis Nowra's play "Radiance", males are absent and the characters are all Aboriginal women. Set on the central Queensland coast at Kinka Beach near Yeppoon, the play was written with the actresses , Rachael Maza, Lydia Miller and Rhoda Roberts in mind (Nowra, v). Three half-sisters come together for their mother's funeral. The three characters, Mae, Cressy and Nona are initially symbolically constructed according to the clothes they are wearing. Mae wears a 'dowdy black dress' (Nowra, 1), Nona 'made up for a party' wears a 'little black dress' (1), "looking like a streetwalker" (6) and Cressy is dressed in a 'stylish and expensive black dress' (6). Their depictions centre on 'sin-based' Western stereotypes – those of a 'good, respectable woman' , a 'sinner' or 'fallen woman', and a 'modern woman'. The theme of secrets and lies dominates the play as each woman reveals a secret that she has kept all her life and in the process uncovers the lies that have been told to conceal these secrets. By the end of the play we learn that Mae is not all she seems, that beneath her facade of respectability lies an obsessiveness that expresses itself in secret drinking and an affair with a married doctor that resulted in criminal action. "I showered him with presents ... nicking the money from the nurses fund". (Nowra, 39). After she was caught, she ended up with a good behaviour bond and had to pay back the money she stole. Nona reveals her obsession with her unknown father, the 'Black Prince' and expresses her secret desire to have a sexual relationship with him (Nowra, 51). Cressy, 'angry and anguished' by Nona's fantasy reveals her secret. She is not Nona's half-sister but her mother. One of her mother's boyfriends raped her when she was twelve and Nona was the result. (Nowra, 52). Each female character in the play is constructed as consisting of contradictions and moral dichotomies. The character, Mae, revels irreconcilable contradictions as she shifts between respectability, where she chides Nona for her choice of dress, to the description of her obsessive love and her secret drinking habits. Her obsession with burning down the house they no longer have a right to, is realized at the end of the play (Nowra, 49). Cressy, ostensibly a successful Opera singer, reveals that she too, is dysfunctional in her own way. While on tour, she developed a habit of stacking all the furniture in her sleep. (Nowra, 25).. She explains her aberration in terms of 'overwork and strain' (25). Both Cressy and Mae were removed from their mother at an early age and placed in the care of Nuns. Their 'successful' careers as a nurse and an opera singer, respectively, may be inferred to be a result of this removal (especially when compared with the child who stayed with her mother, Nona, and her lack of 'achievements'). In this way, Nowra is reinforcing a popular traditional assumption that Aboriginal people can only achieve the white Australian concept of 'success' if they are removed from their Aboriginal parents. Nona switches between sentimentality and sensuous sexuality. Her fantasy surrounding her father represents one of the more obvious moral dichotomies. She sentimentalises the burning of cane on the Weller's plantation and interprets it as a sign of love for her mother. "Maybe he's burning it off in Mum's honour" (Nowra, 37). Nona enjoys arousing the priest at her mother's funeral with her short dress and lack of undergarments (10). In his interview with Candida Baker, Nowra described his family as "a unit that existed in silences, secrets and not touching" (Baker, 243). Nowra also revealed his theory that 'madness is something that happens when a person can't reconcile the opposites or contradictions within themselves". According to Louis Nowra, recovery from madness entails the reconciliation of opposites (254). By interpreting the representations in the play within the framework of Louis Nowra's theories on madness, I have to come to the conclusion that each female character is a representation of "irreconcilable differences" or "madness". Therefore, the play "Radiance" is in my opinion, primarily a representation of the theme of madness. The characters represented in the play are superimposed on this theme and could have been portrayed by white Australians. In Von Sturmer's words, "every act of representation involves a positioning of self: each act of representation is an act of self-representation." (Von Sturmer qtd Langton , 57). Both the play, "Radiance" and the movie, "Blackfellas" contain a representation of the viewpoints and backgrounds of the respective writers, Louis Nowra and Archie Weller and contain each artist's version of their perceptions of Aboriginality. Whereas there are aspects of "Blackfellas" which may be considered to accord with Nyungar attitudes and viewpoints there are also themes of violence, crime and cultural disintegration that misrepresent the majority of Black Australians in south-western Australia. As for Bran Nue Dae, it appears to me, to be a refreshingly authentic representation of some of the Aboriginal people in Broome.

Deciduous, Edible fruit, Trees, Decorative fruit or berries
Deciduous trees with leaves of variable size and shape, often on the same plant. Yellow autumn color ranges from subdued to bright. Fruits somewhat resemble miniature blackberries and are favored by birds.
Native to China. Fast-growing tree can reach 30–50 ft. high and wide, though it's often smaller. Leaves to 6 in. long and nearly as wide are often lobed. Fruit-bearing (female) trees have inconspicuous flowers followed by white, pink, or purple fruit that is sweet but rather insipid; it stains paved surfaces (as well as clothing). Tolerates desert heat, alkaline soil, and seacoast conditions. Resistant to Texas root rot. Subject to sooty canker disease.
Stake new plants—they quickly develop large crowns, which may snap from slender young trunks in high winds. For the first few years, branches may grow so long that they droop from their own weight; shorten such branches to a well-placed upward-growing bud. Difficult to garden under because of heavy surface roots. Takes some aridity but performs better with regular moisture.
Excessive pollen has made these illegal in some desert jurisdictions.Morus nigra
Likely a native of western Asia. Grows to 30 ft. tall and 35 ft. wide, with a short trunk and dense, spreading head. Heart-shaped leaves to 8 in. long. Large, juicy dark red to black fruit.
The edible part of this tropical American plant is actually an enlarged taproot; it develops undergrou...

Ah, Summer vacation. It's like an oasis from the long school grind. It's something that everyone looks forward to which is why all the memory making from this very important event must be documented. Here's a few Summer vacation photography tips that I've found helpful as I've learned to capture the memories but still enjoy the moments.
1. Capture the small moments that spark an emotion. When we drove from Texas to California, our car was packed down. I knew we would forget how crazy it was unless I took a photo. Same was true when we pulled into our driveway after a haul to Utah and back and we looked at the speedometer…3399.9 miles. Small moments but they're fun to remember years down the road.
2. Let your child get behind the lens. I love seeing things from their perspective. While camping in Moab, I gave the camera to my son. Not only did he love it and capture some great shots but, it was also a memory in itself! As far as photography tips, this one might be my favorite.
3. Don't get too focused on capturing the perfect shots that you're not present. As a photographer, this … >> find out more...

My husband was saved a few weeks ago, praise God! I ask that you please pray for him in this journey.

Please pray for my church. Only a few people go and most are the pastors family (3 kids, 3 grandkids and his brother). Pray that-God gives the lost souls living in the same apartments as me the desire to go to this church (its right across the street). Pray God uses me as as he needs to encourage and influence my neighbors to go. Also, please pray for my husband. He was saved a few weeks ago and it seems like he is falling back again. Thanks for the prayers!

I am a college senior who had dreams of becoming a veterinarian. Recently I had started thinking that maybe that wasn't God's will for my life and started making other plans. Today I received an email on a job opportunity as a vet tech/assistant that I had been praying over for over two years. If I get the job it will mean having to leave one of my other jobs and I'm not sure if financially I could do it. Putting all of my trust in God over this and praying for guidance.

Thanks Gang! Who would be your ideal pick this year?
As of now, I'm flip flopping between Montgomery and Kevin White, who you happened to have going back to back I believe.
I think Ty would add a lot to the Panthers current offense where he can be moved all around. Especially when we motion a WR behind Cam in the Pistol. His ability as a strong runner could definitely open up more things with the option and it'd give us another big bodied receiver on the filed. Plus his ability as a returner would be a welcome sight for us.
With White, I do love his fluidity and smoothness in the open field, looks like he's just gliding out there and can easily get open on routes and out of breaks. Not only that, but he's a strong receiver at the catch.
Personally, I don't think we could go wrong with either of them.

The Big Fat Surprise
Next week a major new book will be published on the subject of dietary fat and why it's good for you. It's called The Big Fat Surprise: Why Butter, Meat and Cheese Belong in a Healthy Diet by Nina Teicholz. Long time Joe Pastry readers know that this is a drum I've been beating for several years now, and I'm very pleased to see that Ms. Teicholz has done some serious research on this important subject. A feature was published about it in Friday's Wall Street Journal. However because some readers will have trouble accessing it behind the WSJ's paywall, I'm going to quote it at length.

Why do egg white foams cause dryness?
That's a great question, reader Bobbi, for in fact they often do cause dryness when they're incorporated into something baked: a cake, cookie or scone. I can think of a couple of reasons why that would be. As you may recall from past discussions of egg white foams, the act of whipping causes proteins in the mostly-water egg white to denature ("get wrecked" in science-speak). In their natural state these proteins — lots of globulin and ovotransferrin — are found gently curled in bunches. The force of whipping pulls those bunches apart, and once they're apart the individual protein molecules start collecting on the surface of the air bubbles that have been created by all the agitation. They do that because those proteins have both water-loving parts and water-hating parts along their length. The surface of an air bubble is therefore a perfect place for them. The water-loving parts can stay in the water, the water-hating parts can protrude into the air, both sides of their split personality are happy. They'll also bond side-to-side with each other just for good measure. The result is a protein mesh that reduces the bubble's surface tension, reinforces its walls and keep the bubble from popping. In other words: foam. …

On Seasoning Cast Iron Pans
Reader Rikki writes:
I know this probably isn't your area, but I'm trying to season a cast iron pan. The pan maker says I should use low heat to season it, but just about every other seasoning article I've seen on the web says very high heat is the thing. Can you tell me: what's the difference and which method should I use?
Rikki, just because I'm a baking blogger doesn't mean I can't flap my fingers for a while on this general cooking subject. It's pretty interesting stuff! As you surely know by now from your readings, seasoning is the process by which porous die-cast metal pans are transformed into smooth, virtually non-stick cooking implements. In the old days people didn't think much about seasoning since it just happened over time with use. Today home cooks take a more clinical attitude toward seasoning. As you mentioned…

The Science of Pâte à Choux
Choux is a truly ingenious invention, though it almost certainly wasn't "invented" in the classic sense of the word. It evolved, probably through decades, maybe even centuries, of trial and error. The secret of choux is that it's "double cooked", a process that imbues it with some very special properties.
If you've made éclair or cream puff shells before, you probably recall the process. Water and butter are combined in a sauce pan and heated to the boil, at which point enough flour is added to turn the mixture into a fairly stiff paste. That paste is then cooked over low heat until it forms a ball, which is then finished by beating in several eggs, one after the other. It's then piped and baked (the second "cooking"). Interesting. Curious. But what does it all mean?…

Vanilla and Vanillin
Reader Joey asks: why do we need imitation vanilla extract, and where does it come from? Both very good questions. The reason we need imitation vanilla is because demand for vanilla flavor exceeds the total quantity of naturally-produced vanilla by something like 750%. So, if we didn't have imitation vanilla extract, a typical $2 vanilla bean would cost about fifteen bucks. Which would make one heck of a pricey pot de crème, n'est-ce pas?

On Artificial Eggs
Quite a bit of chatter these days about the all-vegetable, Bill Gates-funded artificial egg. This story and others prompted reader Rainey to ask if I had an opinion on it. I'd be very curious to test artificial eggs in a home kitchen, Rainey, since I have a strong feeling that their main utility will be in the packaged foods industry where manufacturers are forever looking to replace the functional characteristics of animal-based ingredients with vegetable alternatives that won't spoil and won't fluctuate as wildly in price. …

Sweaty Undershirts + Hay = Mice
Watching a bread dough grow is a wonder. Or at least it is to me, a dedicated baker and consummate geek. I never fail to be startled when I peer into a cloth-covered bowl and find a completely inflated sponge, bubbly and rarin' to go. Just two hours prior it was a lifeless paste of water and flour. What could be cooler?
Moments like this make one understand how the ancients (and a few not-so-ancients) came to believe that leavening was a miracle. Certainly no one had any concept of the tiny creatures we call microbes until the age of Pasteur. Europeans in the Middle Ages simply called fementation "goddisgoode". Whenever I think of that I imagine two Medieval dirt farmers staring drunkenly into mugs of beer a the local mead hall. One says to the other: I wonder how this happens? The other shrugs and says: Hey, God is good!…

Well that was interesting.
I went to prison last night and, to my great surprise, they let me back out again. It was quite an experience to watch a group of convicts — many of them serving extended sentences for very serious crimes — perform Shakespeare. Quite honestly I'm still trying to decide what I thought of it. It wasn't the best Shakespeare I've ever seen, though many of the performances and several of the scenes were jaw-droppingly good.
Over the years the Shakespeare Behind Bars troupe has performed a variety of different Shakespeare plays, many tragedies (Titus Andronicus, Julius Caesar, Othello, Macbeth) but also comedies (The Comedy of Errors, Measure for Measure, The Tempest, Twelfth Night, The Merchant of Venice). This year's show, Richard III, was I think the first of the history plays they'd performed. You won't be surprised to discover that the histories are generally my favorites, especially the so-called "Henriad": Richard II, Henry IV parts 1 and 2 and Henry V. So…no surprise that I was keen on seeing it. …

On-the-Edge Q & A

Reading [your posts on Michael Pollan] leaves me wondering what's your approach to ingredients and food in general? Do you fit in any particular category (organic, local, etc.)?

Silviu, I try not to touch hot-button questions like this since they often lead to go-nowhere comment field combat, a lot like the trench warfare at Ypres.

Arizona Cardinals
QB Roulette: If Manning to Titans, Hasselbeck to Cardinals?
The Cardinals want Peyton Manning.
Having brought the former Colt in for a visit, it's obvious the team is looking to upgrade the QB position, not being totally content with Kevin Kolb and John Skelton.
However, Manning is receiving plenty of interest from other teams, including the Denver Broncos and Tennesee Titans. And, while the QB heading to Denver wouldn't really affect the Cardinals, him signing in Tennessee could.
As ESPN's Mike Sando notes, Manning in Nashville would lead to Matt Hasselbeck getting the boot, and, since the Cardinals expressed interest in the former Seahawk last year, one could begin connecting some dots.
The Cardinals could make room for Hasselbeck by declining to pay a $7 million bonus due to Kevin Kolb by Friday. We're dealing in the hypothetical at this point, but so are the teams. As much as the Cardinals want Manning, they must prepare alternate strategies. They could have a choice between Kolb and Hasselbeck if Manning landed in Tennessee. Hasselbeck would upgrade the position on the field, in my view, while giving the Cardinals a veteran mentor for Skelton.
Sando goes on to mention that while Hasselbeck and Kolb had similar QB ratings last season (82.4 to 81.1), the veteran signal caller had a significantly better Total QBR, which takes into account not only a QB's stats, but how each play impacts a game and his team's chances of winning.
For the season Hasselbeck completed 61.6 percent of his passes, throwing 18 touchdowns and 14 interceptions. His top receiver, Kenny Britt, played in just three games, and yet he was still able to guide the Titans to a 9-7 record. So, it's not as if the guy can't play anymore, and in Arizona he'd have that Larry Fitzgerald guy to throw too.
Another thing Hasselbeck would bring is a knowledge of the NFC West after spending 10 seasons in the division. At 36, Hasselbeck may not have much in the tank, but then again, how much does Manning have left? While he's not as accomplished as Manning, he would not be a bad option should the Cardinals decide they do not want to keep Kolb around, Manning or no Manning.

- Christmas treatFlandsDined on 22/11/2014This is the 2nd time we have been to Gilgamesh and it certainly didn't disappoint again! From the time you step on to the escalator you are made to feel special. The atmosphere was buzzing and it was great to sit near the bar and where the food was being prepared as there was lots going on. The menu was very exclusive and we started with some dim sum and crispy squid. There was enough time to between courses to relax and allow the food to digest. For main we had Thai green curry and beef with sugar snap peas and noodles. The food tasted fresh and vibrant and the meat tender and succulent. As it was a special occasion we treated ourselves to a bottle of champagne and liqueur coffees. The only thing that let the meal down was the Mille feuille dessert that was still a bit frozen in the middle. However this did not ruin the evening as the service was very good and the staff all very friendly. Will definitely book again!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Good but not fantastic but impressive placeJb888VIPDined on 22/11/2014Impressive place large but the food is not as good as can be and expensive if you compare the dim sum to Chinatown prices however the restaurant is impressive would go againSpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- OpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 21/11/2014Huge restaurant, the food is good but not great. The chef gave us a portion of sea bass FOC because it got mixed up with our order. Our waiter Mattia was exceptional. Please thank him for us. We dined on Friday 21st November 2014. All in all a nice experience.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Absolutely amazing, Beautiful & brilliant.Food4lifeDined on 20/11/2014Gilgamesh was absolutely amazing. From our welcome to extremely helpful staff to yummy food to the delicious desserts. We loved our first experience and will be sure to come again.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- excellentDonpabloDined on 19/11/2014Had the vegetarian Christmas lunch with my daughter when in London shopping and we were both delighted with the menu. The best vegetarian food we've eaten out. Have been several times before and it never disappoints.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- highly recommendrisseanDined on 15/11/2014This was my 2nd visit to Gilgamesh whilst visiting London . Food was superb, presentation was beautiful and the service we received was outstanding. Would highly recommend this restaurant and especially the prawn and scallop dim sum starter which i have had on both visits. Will definitely be visiting again.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Poor food, great serviceUrvs123Dined on 15/11/2014To summarise, the drink that I asked for (Bloody Mary) was sooo salty, too salty! I asked for it to be spicy not salty. My partners drink however was lovely, so a little hit and miss with their cocktails! The venue itself if lovely, however upon sitting down for the meal, we were both equally disappointed. I ordered Beef teriyaki and my partner ordered something which I cant even remember now..both came out luke warm/bordering cold. It completely lacked flavour too...Really disappointed as I've wanted to go Gilgamesh for a very long time now... I've tried much better Pan Asian food at other restaurants, do not even waste your time with this one!Special Features:
- Monthly 50% Menu Getting BetterBaJohnVIPDined on 13/11/2014Good news, an improvement on last months meal. The starter favourite of 'Duck and watermelon salad' was fantastic as usual. The other starters were also very acceptable, although not so outstanding. The beef main course was interesting although difficult to eat with chopsticks, as it was minced quite fine. Good flavour though. The 'standard' red wine was reasonable, although not great value for the price. The sweet was a great tasting twist on a the 'pina colada', although presented with a very small ice-cream and no biscuit (a year ago we had cinnamon biscuits with a lot of the sweets, which I loved). The new chef(s) are obviously getting into their stride with the menus and seem to me to be improving gradually over the year. I look forward to their Christmas offering, although by past experiences that menu has often been a bit of a let down, and at a higher price. We will be back again.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Fantastic food, Good overall experienceJonnyDined on 8/11/2014Really enjoyed Gilgamesh overall. A nice ambiance, though a little loud for a meal for two, definitely more suited as a group night out dinner venue. The food was of very high quality, and we both really enjoyed our fish and teriyaki beef respectively. Service was a little slow, but the staff were polite and friendly. Two glasses of wine, a shared starter and two main courses came to £100 including service charge.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great timeTessa6Dined on 6/11/2014I really appreciated how accommodating the staff were. I don't eat shellfish or pork, but I didn't want the vegetarian set menu option. They kindly substituted a few items from the vegetarian menu into our meat menu. The waiter was very attentive and helpful. The food was creative and delicious. I will be back.I would recommend this to a friend.
- Let DownUnhappyDined on 1/11/2014Unfortunately, I'm gonna have to give this restaurant a "no go." Judging by the prices. I was expecting something a little special. The only good thing about the night, was the fact my complaint was heard. And I got some money knocked off the bill. Won't be going back there. Ever
- Good foodhungergamesDined on 29/10/2014Having avoided coming here for about a year after a bad food experience (massively over cooked steak when had asked for medium rare- sent back and still came back super well done and tough) and annoying service, was very glad to give a second chance. Service was great and food was excellent- including a melt-in-the-mouth medium rare teriyaki beef steak as well as good quality sashimi and very nice soft shell crab and monkfish tempuras. Only minus is it usually tends to be very noisy (more so if there's an event), so avoid the weekends where there are often big groups if you actually want to talk to anyone. It's also quite pricey. Still, all worth treating yourself for the food.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- A club - not a restaurant!DandADined on 25/10/2014this is NOT a restaurant. This is a club with an option to eat. Horrible. Entrance is up an escalator, it looks like an old factory (look at the ceiling!!!) and upon leaving you have to descent this horrible staircase - where we saw a MASSIVE rat!!! Don't go there if you're looking for a romantic dinner. Food is ok but I rather have it take away! Everyone is there just for the club - every table has a birthday party and all the women are half naked. If that's what you're after then go for it. If it's your anniversary - stay away.
- Disappointing for Saturday LunchSavannahxDined on 25/10/2014I'm quite sure Gilgamesh comes into it's own after dark (so disregard this if you're visiting at night) but for lunch on Saturday, I wouldn't bother. It was three quarters empty with no buzz whatsoever. The service was very good but in the cold light of day, some of the food was pretty mediocre too - we sampled lots of small dishes and a couple of curries and they were OK. The bill for 4 of us came to over £200, that included only 3 alcoholic drinks and only 2 main courses - fairly expensive even for London prices!Special Features:
- Not what it used to beAlexLDined on 24/10/2014Came with my wife for our anniversary as have always loved coming here. Service, however, was abysmal. Extremely slow, always had to signal for a waiter/waitress to come over. The staff had that knack of wandering around the restaurant trying to look busy and managing to look everywhere but at you.Then the waitress managed to knock our bottle of wine over, spilling it all over my wife. There was no offer of a free bottle and when I had the nerve to suggest that we should get the wine free of charge I was told by the waitress, "Well I only spilt a little bit". Hmmm, quite. Eventually, via the manager, we did get the wine free, only to then receive the bill with a 10% service charge automatically added! Their excuse - we are v busy.
- Amazing!!rosiebudlouDined on 24/10/2014There was absolutely nothing to fault about this restaurant! The atmosphere, decorations, food, service, presentation was absolutely amazing. The food was the most delicious food I have ever tasted.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Nothing specialHmmmDined on 22/10/2014Great decor but very overpriced considering how small the portion sizes were. Nothing special...Special Features:
- ExcellentChriflo0Dined on 21/10/2014The ambience was excellent, the food divine. Had the best & most professional, informative, jolliest service by Carmen who is an absolute angelSpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Decent food, felt like a clubcueball4lifeDined on 18/10/2014Large, over the top, ostentatious. Food wasn't bad but did not impress me particularly, and certainly not for the prices being charged. Walking around the place made me feel like I was just wanting for someone to turn down the lights, clear away the diners and start playing RnB through a Funktion One system hidden behind a carved elephant.
- Loved itSmiffyDined on 18/10/2014I went here on a date with my fiance. I have been before but not on a date and my fiance has bever been. We loved the atmoshere, the food, the staff just everything about the place. It was also not over priced for the type of place it is and where it is. Our waiter explained the menu, was polite and is a credit to Gilgamesh.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Tourist SpotTorontoTouristDined on 17/10/2014Gilgamesh is a great joint for tourists in the London area looking for a good Asian fix. Vegetarian options are rather slim. Ambience and decor far exceeded our expectations. Staff were very professional, but felt as though they were rushing us a bit at the end of our meal.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Improving.BaJohnVIPDined on 15/10/2014Better than my previous review a few weeks ago. We both thought the chicken gyoza starter was tasty and the rock shrimp tempura was fantastic. The Beef main course was certainly different and my wife loved it, whilst I had the 'just cooked' Chilean seabass with a superb tamarind sauce. Sides were okay apart from being a bit on the cold side. Biggest let down was the sweet. Apple crumble with sorbet, which was mostly crumble and almost non existent apple. A year ago we would have had fantastic a pot of something with a cinnamon biscuit and sorbet, whilst now it was the pot (as described) and sorbet. No cinnamon biscuits anymore?. Still an improvement on last time, but NOT up to last year's quality.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Cant fault it at allshamazingDined on 4/10/2014First time at gilgamesh was AMAZING. The restaurant is beautiful and big. Great ambience. The tables and chairs made you feel like king of the thrones. The service was good and the food oh the food the best pan asian food ive ever had. The meat is so tender the starters was amazing and i had the chocolate fondant for desert its a must have. The bill was £114 for 2 people but it was worth it. Happy night.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Good food in lovely settingTriniwomanDined on 4/10/2014Generally very good food and service. They fell off when we had a specific request with the dessert that was not taken on board. One of my guests did not eat one of the items on the dessert and we mentioned this to the waiter. Had we known it was integral part of the dessert we would have ordered something else. It was a special occasion and I was disappointed with the fact that my guest was forced to eat "around" a taste he did not enjoy as he as was too shy to order something else which would have come long after the rest of the table. The waiter who was otherwise attentive apologised but it did take away from the evening and it ended on a less positive note. Overall however would recommend.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- faultlessOpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 3/10/2014Food was fantastic. Service was brilliant. Great value for money. Never had a bad word to say about Gilgamesh. Always a firm favourite when going out for a group meal.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Amazing food, bad servicePhilDined on 30/9/2014Had a fantastic meal off the set menu and was impressed that they managed to suggest alternative dishes to match some reasonably specific dietary requirements. When the food arrived we couldn't fault it, it was fantastic and really good value. However.... We were seated for nearly half an hour before someone took a drinks order , there was some difficultly explaining to the staff about dietary requirements and they seemed more interested in each other then their customers. It took the shine off the fantastic food!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- DisappointingfoodieDined on 26/9/2014We had wanted to go to Gilgamesh for quite a while and tried the tasting menu, thinking that this might be a good introduction to their food. The food was ok but not wow, the starter being the best - a variety of dim sum, sushi and battered prawns. The main course portion of beef was tiny, served on a small plate with small knife and fork - we dont like huge portions of food but this was taking the biscuit. Expensive and poor value for money even with the 50% off. Maybe better to have a main course on their al a carte but as they havent impressed us with the tasting menu we are unlikely to go back. Disappointing overall as the service was very welcoming and the restaurant has a great atmosphere.
- Food still the star....AlyPDined on 21/9/2014As clients of Gilgamesh since its opening, we have seen many changes, luckily the food is still of high quality and delicious. Service can be hit and miss. Generally Gilgamesh needs re-furb and refresh. We do not come here any more in the evenings as the pack them into the rafters and we have seen fights! The outside area in the car park is appalling covered in broken glass and litter and the entrance looks appalling....toilets always in a poor state and need refurbing. Food still excellent but overall Gilgamesh has lots its sparkle.Special Features:
- Service was above and beyondCookinElleDined on 20/9/2014The food was excellent. But it was the friendly service by the front of house and also the chefs attention to detail and care that made the evening amazing. Especially as I have allergies and every effort was made to accommodate me and ensure I relaxed and enjoyed my meal.Special Features:
- Gilgamesh Foodie HeavenOpenTable Diner Since 2013Dined on 19/9/2014Amazing nothing bad to say. Service was fantastic as was the food. Stunning restaurant, great atmopshere.Special Features:
- luvspicyfoodDined on 18/9/2014excellent value, good food and outstanding service. Will recommend to families and friends. many thanks.Special Features:
- AndyAndyMDined on 17/9/2014A fun experience. Food and atmosphere very pleasant. Service a little hit and miss.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great food, shame about the servicePatoDined on 16/9/2014Had a 6pm reservation so quite early as we were heading to a concert later, service was poor from start to finish. Seated in the bar on arrival for a pre dinner drink yet no staff were around or came near to take an order, eventually got a drink but had to find staff again to get seated at our table, three more attempts to get someone to take us to a table. Food was delicious though and the decor is lovely. I won't return at this time of night again, it was obvious they had just opened. definitely a night venue. When we left we asked which exit was best to head up to the Roundhouse and were shown what they felt was the best way, straight out into a supermarket car park which was completely not the right way.Special Features:
- Great foodwillmicDined on 13/9/2014Excellent food and great price! Went with girlfriends and it was perfectSpecial Features:
- Good food.DominiqueDined on 12/9/2014I enjoy Gilgamesh each time I go there. It is an original stting and very busy but it is balanced by the good service. From cocktails, mains and dessert, all the food is refined and light [even the green curry!] I'll return.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great food, terrible serviceSteveDined on 12/9/2014Our beef course was overdone and one course didnt even turn up. The Waiter and Supervisor then argued with us as our table rather than make it right, which is just unacceptable. Shame - it's a great spot otherwise.Special Features:
- Best Meal EverFood4ThoughtDined on 6/9/2014This place is place is spectacular, so friendly and absolutely delicious. If you haven't been to Gilgamesh yet you need to hurry up and book a table, the food is amazing, the place looks amazing and the service is perfect. Can't wait to go backSpecial Features:
- SpectacularCockneyCounsellor1Dined on 5/9/2014This is a very impressive restaurant. The atmosphere is brilliant. The staff were very friendly, helpful without being intrusive. We were a party of six and every delicacy we had was fresh, well cooked and tasty. The dim sun has left a lasting impression on me. I will definitely be making another visit, SOON.Special Features:
- double birthday treatgood2eatDined on 5/9/2014we were first in, but were given first class attention with first class food, i will never eat at wing wahs again! when we got back into the lanes with all the chineses food stores it all looked like tastely slop! The food was beautiful and fresh, the fried rice full of moist fresh prawns, will not hesitate in dining there again and will recommend it to friendsSpecial Features:
- Oh Gilgamesh!BaJohnVIPDined on 3/9/2014My favourite restaurant is dropping points. It started with the man at the door whom was effectively rude to my wife. (I was outside parking the car). Then the food was not as good as usual. Hmm .. they have changed chefs twice this year we hear. Oh dear. I still like Gilgamesh but the shine is beginning to dull. The 50% monthly menu was NOT one of the best, but I must highlight the sweet as excellent. Also the quality of the reduced price wine was I feel not up to the requisite standard. We dine here regularly and am overall a bit disappointed. We would still recommend to friends and will probably be back soon as has been the case over the past 5 years. Every place has a low point in it's history ... maybe this is it for Gilgamesh.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

"I love these cards! I ordered them to send for our daughter's first Valentine's Day. They just arrived today and I'm very impressed with the quality. I ordered them with the white shimmer and it adds a nice touch to the product. I like it so much I'm thinking of getting it framed to keep as a special memory."
"THe cards looked exactly as I hoped they would. I was appreciative of the work done to center the photo on the card. Pricing on the web page was misleading as to the cost of each card. Would have appreciated knowing the price per card for the number of cards I purchase before I completed the transaction. I had great help in getting the card set up over the phone. The representative who worked with me was both knowledgeable and patient."
"This card was so cute! I had to order more because I couldn't stop handing it out to friends and neighbors. The post card form was so convenient for a Valentine (and cheaper postage)."
"I love these announcements because they are not like every other announcement I see. The matte finish makes it look like a higher quality (rather than glossy finish). I personally used the coffee color rather than the pink which made the pink in the heart (date) pop more. The only thing I wish I had done differently is get a professional picture taken, but that's on me, not Tiny Prints."
"My family and friends loved receiving our valentine card. It was really easy to put together and once again Kevin from Tiny Prints helped me with my fonts and layout. It's the staff like Kevin that makes this company the reason I keep coming back. My only wish is that Tiny Prints would allow the customer to decide whether they want to have the Tiny Prints logo on their final cards. Most other companies allow this and I wish Tiny Prints would adopt this option as well."

Dance For MeSeries Website »
Episode Guide »
Professional ballroom dancing is very big in little Denmark. Since success in this intensely competitive art depends on finding the right partner, aspiring Danish dancers often look beyond their borders to find their matches. In "Dance for Me," 15-year-old Russian performer Egor leaves home and family to team up with 14-year-old Mie, one of Denmark's most promising young dancers. Strikingly different, Egor and Mie bond over their passion for Latin dance -- and for winning. As they head to the championships, so much is at stake: emotional bonds, career and the future. This film is a poetic coming-of-age story, with a global twist and thrilling dance moves.

Duke Energy Indiana president responds to IURC Edwardsport decision
Duke Energy Indiana President Doug Esamann issued the following statement in response to the Indiana Utility Regulatory Commission's approval of the Edwardsport settlement agreement. "Today the Indiana Utility Regulatory Commission approved a settlement agreement finalized in April 2012 between Duke Energy Indiana and some of the state's key consumer groups involved in regulatory proceedings dealing with the company's Edwardsport coal gasification power plant. The decision reduces the amount Duke Energy's Indiana customers will pay for an advanced technology, environmentally cleaner coal power plant and provides clarity to the company for cost recovery on this project. With construction virtually complete, Edwardsport has successfully produced its first electricity from gasified coal during start-up and testing. By mid-2013, we expect to place the plant into commercial operation. Today's decision resolves key regulatory issues and allows us to focus on bringing into service a plant that will help us meet increasingly strict federal environmental regulations while still using an abundant local resource, Indiana coal."

Azealia Banks has released a new video for her track Liquorice, which will appear on her new EP, 1991. The video was directed by London based director Rankin. We see Azealia take on an American wild west flavour for the clip, dressed up in cowgirl and going in to a showdown with herself.
It's not the only Azealia Banks' track to come out this week, as we saw her release a new track from her Fantasea mixtape titled Aquababe. This track follows up on previous single Jumanji, which appeared online last month.
Azealia Banks will be out here on the Splendour in the Grass 2012 lineup in late July. She's also been working on her debut album Broke with Expensive Taste, which should be out in September.
