Obituary - Audrey Greenslade of Cockermouth
Last updated at 14:45, Friday, 07 December 2012
A popular Cockermouth sportswoman has died aged 79.
Audrey Greenslade, of Dale Close, died on Tuesday after suffering from ovarian cancer.
She was a member of Cockermouth's Lorton Street badminton club and was part of the first ever Cumbria over-65 squad that won a national championship in 2003.
She was also a very active member of Croft Bowling Club where she won many trophies.
Mrs Greenslade was born in Gateshead in 1933, and was due to be evacuated to North Yorkshire at the outbreak of World War Two.
However, she declined and stayed in Gateshead throughout the war and the bombings.
Her elder brother Kenneth Richardson was in the Royal Navy and he lost his life when his submarine was sank by a U-boat in 1945.
Mrs Greenslade worked at the Queen Elizabeth Hospital in Gateshead and in 1950 started writing to a pen pal, Eric, who was serving in Egypt in the army. He became her husband.
Mr Greenslade, 80, returned to the UK in 1953 and the couple moved to Cumbria and married in 1955.
They moved all over the county living in Penrith, Workington, Keswick and Whitehaven before settling in Cockermouth in 1981 when Eric, a Chief Superintendent with Cumbria police, was stationed at the former western division police headquarters in Brigham.
Mrs Greenslade, who worked as a matron in old people's homes, played badminton all her life from the age of 15.
She was a member of the Lorton Street Club and played for the Greta club at Keswick, and for Penrith, Whitehaven and West Cumbria Farmers.
She was a member of Cumbria over-60s squad that was the leading team in England in the early 2000s and who won a number of national championships.
She was then a member of the first Cumbria over-65s squad, which went on to win the first over-65s inter county championship in 2003.
Mrs Greenslade and her playing partner Cameron McCallum were the two oldest players in the final and won both their games to take the trophy.
Mr Greenslade said: "She was a very competitive woman and she was very good at badminton. She was well known and had loads of friends across the county because of the variety of clubs she played for.
"Later on she loved her bowling which was practically a full-time job. Two or three years ago she was the greens champion and also won loads of other trophies."
Mrs Greenslade loved literature and her grandchildren.
Her daughter Barbara Maxwell, 57, said: "She loved her literacy and music as well as walking in the Lakes and you could always find her up mountains.
"She looked after all her children brilliantly and we adored her."
Her son Ian Greenslade, 49, added: "She was such a caring person. She was always helping us when fit and well, and even when she had her cancer and was ill she was more bothered about us."
Mrs Greenslade is survived by her husband Eric, daughters Barbara, Heather Wilkinson and Erica Rooney, son Ian, five grandchildren and one great grandchild.
Her funeral will be held on Tuesday at 11am at Lorton Street Methodist Church, Cockermouth.

After years researching her film about our increasingly surveillance nation, MacArthur Genius Fellowship and Pulitzer Prize recipient Laura Poitras began receiving encrypted e-mails from someone identifying himself as "citizen four," who was ready to blow the whistle on the massive covert surveillance programs run by U.S. intelligence agencies. In June 2013, she and Glenn Greenwald flew to Hong Kong for the first of many meetings with the man who turned out to be Edward Snowden. She brought her camera with her. The film that resulted from this series of tense encounters is absolutely sui generis in the history of cinema: a 100% real-life thriller unfolding minute by minute before our eyes.

Art and Craft
"Perversely satisfying… The art world deserves him." –NY Times
Legendary art forger Mark Landis has mimicked the works of Picasso, the 15th-century masters and even Walt Disney. But he's not in it for money: his delivery of his works is a kind of performance art, as he donates his pieces to museums around the country. When he dupes a tenacious amateur investigator, it seems that the show is approaching its finale. Sam Cullman and Jennifer Grausman's hugely entertaining doc is as a cat-and-mouse art caper that delves into authenticity and obsession (U.S., 2014, 89m)

Keep on Keepin' On
From producer Quincy Jones and director Al Hicks comes this inspiring tribute to Clark "CT" Terry, a living legend whose career spans more than seven decades. Terry is one of jazz's most prolific and beloved musicians: he counts Miles Davis, Ella Fitzgerald, and Duke Ellington among his many admirers, and Dizzy Gillespie called him "the greatest jazz trumpet player on earth." Hicks explores Terry's personal approach to jazz, his dedication to teaching, and his friendship with a young blind piano player named Justin Kauflin. At 90 years old, and suffering from the debilitating effects of diabetes, Terry continues to share his wisdom with the next generation. When times get tough, he tells his students, just keep on keepin' on. (U.S., 2014, 86m)

Listen Up Phillip
"I can't think of a recent movie that stages with as much joy and wonder the sense of living a life that becomes the stuff of art." –New Yorker
Alex Ross Perry's complex, intimate, and highly idiosyncratic comedy follows the volatile Philip (Jason Schwartzman) as he awaits the publication of his sure-to-succeed second novel. He hates the city, his relationship with his photographer girlfriend Ashley (Elisabeth Moss) is crumbling and he doesn't care to publicize his own work. But when Philip's idol Ike (Jonathan Pryce) offers his isolated summer home as a refuge, Philip finally gets the peace and quiet to focus on his favorite subject: himself.

Eat Local
The benefits of eating locally has been in the news lately. I decided to look up what I would have to do to eat locally. 100 mile diet uses google maps to give you a 100 mile local eating radius. It actually includes more places than I thought and redefines by limited definition of local. Hmmm, it makes eating locally look doable. Of course, I don't live in Vancouver, that's just their demonstration map.
The future of GIS technology
Inspired by an old Numb3rs episode on schools and rfid, I started to see what GIS related technologies are being used in schools. According to the BBC, a U.K. based company, Edexcel, has created technology to rfid tag exam papers. U.S. company, aptly named Graffiti Tracker inc. has created technology to track, analyze, and reduce graffiti. You can watch their case study. It has become almost routine for new school buses to come with GPS tracking. Student tracking is gaining momentum in schools. The increased use of technology in schools has caused controversy, some people argue that they aren't cost effective or infringe on privacy rights. Others, like some bus drivers, believe technology will be used to justify lower salaries or hiring less employees. I wonder if kids who use GIS technologies so seamlesslly in everyday life, will be so tech savvy they will push technology to a higher level then anyone can imagine in highschool (even grade school) and later in life as working professionals.
Angelina Jolie and Geographic Tattoos
It's all over the tabloid news. Angelina Jolie showing off her new tattoos – geographical map coordinates of her children's country of birth. Does anyone want to check that they are correct? What is funny is the amount of bloggers and journalists asking "what do they mean" and "the secret of angelina's tattoos revealed". She's a walking geography lesson.
Earth from the Air
If you haven't seen them, the images from the exhibit 'Earth from the Air' are breathtaking. You can even send them as e-cards. "Yann Arthus-Bertrand's mission was to create a photographic record of the natural world at the start of a new millennium. The collection of 160 images takes viewers off the ground and into the air to witness a bird's-eye view of the extraordinary patterns and colours created in landscapes all over the world. Some are the result of human activity – farming, industry or habitation. Others are entirely sculpted by nature itself. None of these images could be seen or even imagined if you were standing on the ground."
Inspector Gadget's Umbrella
There are so many possibilities for the Pileus umbrella which has wireless internet, GPS and a Google Earth digital compass. The main one being, when will it do everything Inspector Gadget's umbrella does. 2. If everyone is using the umbrellas, will it lessen incidences of skin cancer. 3. When will they build it into baseball caps. Other famous umbrella technologies that could be adapted are The Penguin, and the Avengers.
Sattellite Imagery vs. PDA Data
An interesting BBC article on the the first international forum for indigenous peoples highlights the use of gis to preserve indigenous rainforest or pygmy communities. The DLH group which created the specialized non-expert user software and ruggedized PDA's for the project have an interesting article on the project. Data is captured when a user touches "a recognizable symbol on the specially configured touch-screen of the handheld computer, for instance, every time they encounter a sacred tree, a burial site or a special tree with many caterpillars which make up an important protein
substitute in their diet.The exact GPS position is then stored in the PDA to eventually produce a complete overview for the community of its resources. The community owns the intellectual rights to the maps completely and are put in charge of the mapping process themselves. This then allows them to enter into negotiations with CIB to secure their livelihoods." The original project won a world bank award in 2005. What is also intereseting is that according to the New Agriculturist "These areas are all seemingly devoid of human habitation as the satellite imaging fails to register such low level human activity deep in the forest"
When science fiction comes true
Michael Crichton wrote a book a called Prey about nanotechnology gone wrong – a swarm of nanobots that function as a hive and try to Borg the human race. Now British scientists have developed "Tiny "smart" devices that can be borne on the wind like dust particles could be carried in space probes to explore other planets" According to Dr John Barker, from the University of Glasgow, "the particles could use wireless networking to form swarms." Cue ominous music, is that foreshadowing I hear? It's a brilliant idea and combines everything I would want in a real life science fiction movie – space, technology, and the feeling you get when dreams (or books) become reality.
Tracking at work
We usually think about tracking objects, more than we do about how they are actually tagged. This BBC picture documentary shows the process scientists went through to tag walruses for observation. The best quote is, "The tags were deployed with three instruments: a crossbow, a CO2-powered gun, and a harpoon that the skipper had made." You can follow the tagged walrus migration through the "Walrus Watch" map and website, "showing the animals' day-to-day progress during the two-month project"
Sat-Nav and School Trips
This is a school trip no one is going to forget. Two bus loads of school kids ended up at an alleyway of the same name instead of a historic landmark because the bus driver had problems with their sat-nav. To compound the problem, "To make matters worse, the children were riding in two coaches not yet fitted with a tracking device allowing staff back at base to pinpoint their location and re-direct them" The bus company owner stressed that it wasn't the technology that was the problem it was the quality of the content. A map is only as good as the information it contains, no matter how advanced technology gets.

Hi Steve,
I've been looking for a small machine that will work to grind cacao beans right into a paste to make raw chocolate. I know that some of the raw chocolate makers buy the butter and the powder and then mix them together (or have a cold-press machine) but I truly want to skip that extra processing step. Can you please recommend a machine that will work for this purpose? I've heard that the spectra 11 might work- it's used for nut butters, I don't have a huge budget so that's the reason why I haven't bought it to test it...
Hope to hear from you!

Seven players from district champion Newell-Fonda were selected to the 8-Man All-District 2 football team, it was released.
Gabe Podraza, Bryce Nielsen, Derek Wolterman, Brady Bohe, Shawn Thompson, Andrew Temple and Dalton Anderson were all chosen to the first team by theleague's coaches.
Players were not chosen by position.
Laurens-Marathon landed two players on the first team in Jordan Gunnarson and Tre Seiler.
Seven players from district runner-up Ridge View were selected to the Class 1A All-District 2 Team, it was released.
The Raptors were represented by Matt Wandrey at linebacker, Ryan Garthoff at quarterback, Mason Johnson at defensive line, Lucas Hansen at offensive line, and John Kofmehl, Logan Richard and Peyton Boyle at wide receiver.
Sioux Central had five players selected to the first team. They were defensive lineman Matt Koenig, defensive end Tim Saunders, tight end Nick Sievers and running back Nate Leer and running back Devin Tripp.

Trailing by 9 points in fourth quarter, Beavers beat Dubuque, 29-28
Freshman Tyler Stolen, who had just minutes earlier converted a key onside kick to give Buena Vista the ball back, nailed a 25-yard field goal with 58 seconds left to end a whirlwind finish and lift Buena Vista to a thrilling 29-28 victory over the University of Dubuque last Saturday at J. Leslie Rollins Stadium.
Dubuque led 28-19 lead with a little more than 5 minutes to play following a 16-yard touchdown run by Kyle Acker.
A lot of young players will need to mature quickly for Storm Lake to have success this girls basketball season.
The Tornadoes return no starters from last year's team that finished 0-21 overall.
Storm Lake has a slew of top prospects to replace the loss of last year's lost starters. They include Rylee James, Dezirae Reyes, Diew Tay, Madison Gaffney, Naomi Castillo, Haylee Lindquist, Nyajuok Lam, Teondra O'Brien and Cinthia Balandran.
Storm Lake coach Mel Fisher said the Tornadoes' success will depend on how fast a brand-new team comes together.
Malarie Gilley and Shelby Wiederhoeft each recorded double-doubles, but it wasn't enough as Buena Vista fell to No. 20 Cornell 84-67 to wrap up play at the Cornell College Tip-off Tournament.
Gilley finished with a team-high 17 points and 11 rebounds while Wiederhoeft posted 12 points and a team-leading 13 rebounds. The two combined to shoot 12-of-15 from the field with Gilley also making 5-of-6 from the free-throw line.
Becca Pennington was also in double figures with 11 points, while equaling Susan Kies for the team-lead with three assists.
Four players were in double figures Cole Darrow's 16 points, but it wasn't enough as Gustavus Adolphus handed Buena Vista an 82-69 defeat last Saturday at St. Peter, Minn.
Darrow shot 7-of-14 from the field and also hauled down a team-high seven rebounds. Alex Savage and Greg Sibenaller each followed with 13 points while shooting a combined 9-for-13. Savage also handed out a team-best four assists.
Grady Gallagher turned in a career-high 11 points, including a 3-for-4 effort from 3-point range.
Laurens-Marathon's super duo makes team
The best teams have the best players. That was certainly true this year. One team dominated the landscape of prep volleyball in the area this season, and that team was Ridge View.
The Raptors advanced all the way to the regional finals and went 34-8 this season.
So it isn't any wonder why Ridge View is represented by three of the eight players on the All-Times volleyball first team.
Quarterback Bobby Brown and the Buena Vista offense will
try to keep pace with a Dubuque offense that has averaged
51 points a game the last two weeks.

Beavers play host to University of Dubuque in season finale
Last week, Buena Vista's defense had to face the league's top scoring offense in Simpson.
The same can be said about this week. The Beavers will be going up against the league's newest top-scoring offense in the University of Dubuque.
Sevond Cole has been extremely pleased with how his team is preparing itself for the upcoming season, especially with his group of young talented freshman.
The sixth-year Buena Vista head coach has a wealth of experienced wrestlers back to fill a great deal of the lineup, but has also brought on board a very talented group of freshman, which will make it one of Cole's deeper lineups.

Dell girds iron from the tower to the blade
Dell has officially announced its new "Nehalem EP" server lineup. You already got the sales pitch for the servers from Dell based on Intel's "Nehalem EP" Xeon 5500 processors last week, so there is no point in going over that ground again today. Let's get down to the feeds and speeds, starting with the PowerEdge tower box, then …
Good stuff...but
servers is servers.
The biggest announcement from Dell was around the Dell Management Console. Where's the review of this?
Boo, poor support for 1333mhz memory
Dell's new R610 and R710 rack servers don't support 1333mhz above 24GB of RAM, it jumps down to 1066mhz if you want 32GB or more. That's a big shame as I wanted the fastest possible speed. It's good to see they're quick to put these servers onto their UK website. I like the new energy efficient PSUs.
Gary F
This may be a thermal issue - does IBM and HP support 1333mHz with greater RAM in the same rack unit configuration?
Memory on Nehalem
Intel recommends 1 x 1333MHz RDIMM per Channel (DPC) for Nehalem systems - see their site.
Using the highest current capacity (4GB) RDIMMs that would be 24GB on a Dell R710 (12GB per CPU). Above that you would look at 1066 or 800 MHz DIMMs to get to higher capacities (144GB is tops using 800MHz DIMMs).

not a fan of this
but not a hater either. Some parts are well done, others are just hastily scrapped together for laughs. also, Id say its too long.
But all and all the animation is still unique and the voice work of egoraptor is top-notch (as it always is) seriously, I think he has one of the funniest voices ever
Rated 3.5 / 5 stars
Funny, i guess.
Its funny, but just a little stale. doesnt deserve to be on the top 10 still.

when snake talks i mean, it actually took me a few watches to understand a lot of the jokes..there's humor in that he talks so fast but when i'm watching i can only understand parts where he's yellin out FUCK or SHIT or some other curse word
in the first one he would slow down occasionally for good delivery, in this one it's kind of like catching up with a fast-forwarded tape recorder :S
but when i got around to understanding it, the movie was actually good. some people criticize the drawings but i like them..

Justice DeLayed
You read it here first before the Christmas Recess that the House GOP was looking to cut the cord on Suspended in Animation Leader Tom DeLay. It was the cocktail chatter at the St. Michael's Island retreat after Thanksgiving, and it continued throughout the December legislative session.
Rep. John Boehner has been putting himself in position to challenge for the leadership post for more than a year. Sources say that since January 2005, he has been holding weekly strategy sessions with a kitchen cabinet of advisers in Washington to discuss options, map out fundraising trips and commitments that best put him position for a run at leadership. "If we get a vote, we're ready to go," says one of the advisers. "We've been waiting for this for a while."

High Hopes
With minivan, road gets a little smoother for Merrimack family
Kamryn Batchelder, 9, and his sister Jade check out the van donated to their family by the High Hopes Foundation on Thursday. (Nancy Bean Foster)
Diane and Scott Batchelder of New Hampton have been raising their five grandchildren on and off for more than a decade in a small house that barely fits them all. When granddaughter Shayleigh, 7, developed a serious health problem, the family that was just making ends meet found themselves in crisis.
"She goes through a lot of spinal taps and has to be seen several times a month," said Diane. "She's starting to have a hard time reading, which is hard because reading is one of her favorite things."
Luckily, the family's social worker, Katy Gautsch, understood the dire straits the family was in and reached out to the High Hopes Foundation, a nonprofit organization that traditionally strives to make the dreams of seriously or chronically ill children come true. But in the Batchelder's case, getting the family reliable transportation was the goal.
The Batchelder kids, ranging in age from 2 to 11, hopped right into the van and found surprises hiding in the back. But mostly they were just happy to have a comfortable new vehicle.

Groups Call On Congress to Enact Sensible Pentagon SavingsTweet
January 9, 2014
Yesterday, groups from across the ideological spectrum, including the Project On Government Oversight, wrote to Members of Congress recommending a number of commonsense spending reductions at the Pentagon that could save American taxpayers hundreds of billions of dollars over the next ten years.
Signed by a coalition of 28 organizations, the letter urges Congress to focus on culling wasteful and ineffective programs from the national security budget. As congressional appropriators finalize an omnibus appropriations bill that includes a full-year Defense Appropriations Act, the letter emphasizes that "spending on ineffective weapons systems and wasteful Pentagon programs does not make us safer." Signatories range from more fiscally conservative groups Americans for Tax Reform (founded by Grover Norquist) and National Taxpayers Union to more progressive groups CREDO and Campaign for America's Future.
The letter cites a number of reports that detail potential savings in the tens of billions of dollars. These include commonsense policy recommendations, such as spending billions of dollars less on military bands and cutting hundreds of millions of dollars in funding from the M1 Abrams tank that the Army has repeatedly said it does not want. Other ideas contained in the reports include modestly reducing the size of the Navy fleet, which would save $35 billion to $41 billion over the next decade, or decreasing the number of deployed nuclear weapons for close to $30 billion in savings over ten years.
"To be clear, we do not agree among ourselves on every recommendation listed here. However, we are united in the belief that there are plenty of ways to strategically target pork-barrel projects and programs designed to fight the Cold War instead of 21st century threats," the letter says.
The recommendations listed in this transpartisan letter, taken together, offer a roadmap for enacting billions of dollars in savings across the Pentagon's budget. As Congress reassesses its funding priorities, it is time to make tough decisions on military spending. With plenty of pork to cut, these sensible spending recommendations are a good place to start.
To add your voice to the call for smart spending on defense, take action here.

last-minute trip to Tokyo, avid eater with food allergies, need expert help!
- s
- spotcleanfood Sep 6, 2012 05:57 AM
My husband and I have booked a very last-minute trip to Tokyo, my first time. I've been reading the many, many great CH posts, but I'm left at a bit of a loss (and more than a little jealous).
Here's the catch: for medical reasons, I cannot have wheat (IgE-mediated allergy) or soy (migraines). Seriously.
Our hotel got us a reservation at Narisawa (Takazawa is on holiday and Ryugin is fully booked) and I have booked local guides for 2 days to help me hunt down the Tokyo delicacies I can eat, but I thought it could ask the CH experts for your advice.
Please note, I am a very adventurous and appreciative eater, and will pretty much each anything that won't kill me. High- or low-brow, doesn't matter.
I read through Shizuo Tsuji"s Japanese Cooking and came up with a very preliminary list of foods I can eat:
Konbu Dashi, probably the only broth I could have
Su-age Agemono
Kara-age Agemono, if cornstarch or kuzu are used instead of flour. Marinades could be a problem though.
Shabu-shabu, if we are able to avoid tofu and wheat gluten cakes
Tsukemono, I love pickles of any kind and, odd as it may sound, often use umeboshi vinegar in place of shoyu. No nukamiso-zuke though.
Fruit, especially if there are any local ones coming into season
Other ideas:
Satsuma-imo, are there still street vendors?
Onigiri, depending on the preparation
plain Mochi
Shira-gayu, okayu--actually, I may *really* need to know where to get this if I end up eating something I shouldn't have :)
(I can have sushi and sashimi as well, but there are so many great recs already, I think I'm covered)
Thoughts? Any suggestions, regardless of location or price, will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
When you say you can't have soy, does that include shoyu (soy sauce)?
If so, I would recommend skipping Japan entirely. Or renting an apartment so you can purchase groceries and cook your own food.
Most Japanese restaurants (in my experience) are not particularly adept at helping diners avoid verboten foods (like when discovering a diner was a vegetarian, one cook served her fried rice instead of the tonkatsu everyone else was having--the fried rice was made with bacon). You can tell them you're allergic to/avoiding a particular food, but that doesn't mean they'll make a thorough attempt to avoid using those foods in your meal.
Another option might be to stick with high-end non-Japanese restaurants. They might be more amenable to altering dishes to suit your allergies.
re: prasantrin
Oh dear, skipping Japan entirely is not an option. The allergy would include shoyu, for both wheat and gluten.
Thanks for the warning though. The high end restos, even Japanese, have been very accommodating, at least at reservation time. We'll see how it goes.
I can't eat top-bill for 7 days though. Hopefully my local guides will help with some creative options.
re: spotcleanfood
i think there are plenty of choices. if you are worried about the sauce on things, just take it with salt, as in yakiniku and yakitori and of course you can have nice japanese branded beef in all sorts of style (steak, yakiniku, shabushabu, teppanyaki). i can't imagine eating sashimi or sushi without the soy sauce though, but u're probably used to it anyways. you can check ingredients of the japanese vinegar and see if ur ok, some raw fish goes quite well with that. kanidouraku could be another choice too. though it's only a chain restaurant, they serve different types of crabs in all sorts of style, and you can probably eat many of those. i personally find it quite good.
re: japanesefoodlover
Thank you! I only just learned that you can get yakitori shio, and I was kindly given a bottle of shiitake shoyu for sushi. I'll have to look for kanidouraku--I love crab :) in the meantime, I'm picking up ume onigiri, candied kobu, and lots of gorgeous fruit for snacks.
re: spotcleanfood
Just don't go alone to the recommendations that follows. Allergen in food have to be traced, actually, some Japanese speaking is necessary... Still, you can have a yakitori dinner at Yakitori Banchou, in the Shin Marunouchi Bldg 5Floor. The menu is half French, so the salad is just vinaigrette, there is good 'tabasaki shio yaki(salt roast)', and their yaki onigiri are possible to request with just salt and butter. Just avoid mince meat.
And you will be able to eat the 'himono', in Ginza there is a house with a variety of roast fish one day dry fish that is stunning. If you don't spread soy sauce on it, it will be allright. Their tuskemono are 'takanazuke', but I am not 100% sure they don't use soy on their marinated sauce.
These places referenced above are casual places, but cheap !
Good prepared sushi(=Edomae sushi) brush their neta with sauce (nikiri, tsume) based on soy sauce, but not all pieces ... so you just need to specify them not to brush sauce on them !!
re: Ninisix
Thanks, Ninisix! I needed a yakitori place for Friday night :)
if you don't speak japanese (and even if you do), beware! food allergies/restrictions are generally pretty poorly understood in the land of the rising sun. any soup, stock, broth, sauce, etc is HIGHLY LIKELY to contain some element of something soy- or gluten-containing. that said... if you were to print this off it might help somewhat. it's still no guarantee though. (apologies to people here who speak better japanese than i do.):
hope this helps. as i said, it's NO GUARANTEE, and someone else here quite likely speaks much better japanese than i do and may have a better way of saying/writing what you need to communicate...
re: chartreauxx
Thank you, chartreauxx! I appreciate any help :)
re: chartreauxx
I don't think it's appropriate to tell the restaurant in print or verbally that you are going to become ill if you eat soy products. After years of these type of allergy help requests here, my advice is rather than throwing down a card with a lengthy explanation, is to know in advance what you want to order or be able to ask specifically if a dish contains what you are allergic to. Japanese have and understand allergies like anyone else.
re: Silverjay
please don't slam me for being inappropriate, silverjay. i have seen things go all kinds of directions, and was simply trying (with a bunch of disclaimers included) to help out. i wasn't trying to be inappropriate, rude, offensive, or anything else, and i'm so sorry if it came across that way.
re: chartreauxx
Just sharing my opinion of your suggestion, not you the person. I'm behind Robb's thoughts on this now, even though in the past I too have offered similar translated disclaimers.
re: Silverjay
i only meant it as a suggestion should spotcleanfood decide s/he wanted to go for it. i'm more or less in robb s/prasantin's camp as a rule. even when i have been in hospital in japan, i've had doctor-mandated dietary orders (issued by a japanese doctor working in the hospital where i was...) fail to "come across" in execution. :-)
sho ga nai, as we say...
re: chartreauxx
Handing a note to what may very likely be a twenty-year-old "baito" hall staff at a restaurant, with a list of what you're allergic to and a disclaimer that you will be sick if you eat it, is something that should be roundly discouraged.
re: Silverjay
i'm going to infer that what you're driving at is that such a method is, best case, likely to be both fairly ineffective and fairly distressing for the proprietor/server. i guess i could have made that clearer in my original post. sorry about that...
re: chartreauxx
"No guarantee" is rather an understatement.
I hate to jump in and be all negative, but every time someone asks for advice about coping with food allergies in Japan, someone else helpfully suggests bringing in a little card written in Japanese that explains what your food allergies are.
As I've said before, this card might be helpful when you get to the emergency room, but it won't be much use in an ordinary restaurant (as opposed to a restaurant in an international hotel or a very high-end restaurant). There simply isn't the same culture of dealing with customer food allergies or food preferences (no meat, no fish, etc.), as prasantrin said earlier in this thread.
On a more positive note, Tokyo has many wonderful, world-class Italian, French and Spanish restaurants where it might be a lot easier to figure out how to eat safely.
re: Robb S
fairly inclined to agree, overall.
My sincere gratitude to all for the advice, and the lively debate. When I googled "food allergy Tokyo" I got 3 pages of Disney with a few Denny's in between. I agree that you cannot walk into any resto and throw down an allergy card. However, it has been extremely helpful to have specific suggestions in combination with a communication tool. For example, I had shabu-shabu and having some Japanese helped me explain that I was not being rude by refusing the shoyu-ponzu and goma sauces. Instead I had daikon with hot pepper, garlic oil, and salt--and it was awesome.
The only other advice I have for you is to bring an epi-pen (more than one) if you use one, as well as a good supply of antihistamines if you use them. And whatever migraine medication you usually use. Because I have a very very strong suspicion you will need any or all of the above more than once during your trip.
(Not trying to be a negative nelly, but when I lived in Japan, every single person I knew with severe food allergies had at least one bad reaction while visiting/living there. Sure, I may only have known 10-ish people there with severe food allergies, but 100% of them had at least 1 bad reaction due to their allergies.)
re: prasantrin
Thank you, prasantrin. Not negative nelly--sound advice for certain. I don't require an epi-pen fortunately, but I did bring a good supply of anti-spasm medication which has indeed been useful.
Back from Tokyo. Generally a success, considering my limitations. My local guides were awesome. Even though they're not food experts per se, they went out of their way to help. If anyone is interested:
Rie from The Backstreet Guides, www.thebackstreetguides.com
Yasuko M. from Tours by Locals, www.ToursByLocals.com
Most awesome, and most unexpected, was that I was able to book Shinji Nohara at the very last minute. He has been mentioned on the boards before, and I would describe the experience as *superlative*. Plus, he's a really nice guy with a curator's eye for Japanese culture. If you love food, he is the best. www.tokyofixer.com
So, the highlights:
With my local guides:
chazuke at Kiname: The staff was incredibly helpful, discussing the menu in great detail. And 2 80+ grannies joined in the conversation--it turned out one had severe food allergies as a child. The chazuke, with its array of condiments, was alternately comforting and surprising. I'm definitely going to try to recreate this at home.
kaiseki-ryōri at Nada-man: The chef and my guide were very conscientious with the entire menu, providing printed notes with every course. My guide sometimes found the allergy-free substitutions surprising but not unpleasant. The highlight was the yakimono course which the chef slow simmered on a piece of kobu ahead of time in place of shoyu.
fruit at Takano: They happened to have some slightly blemished fruit on sale at a deep discount. Possibly the best peach I've ever had.
With Shinji:
Sushi Ichi: I think Shinji might have chosen this with a wink to the fact that I live in Singapore. Nonetheless, the food was outstanding, each presentation perfect in its own way. We had a great view of the chef's knife skills and plenty of opportunity to discuss the finer points of sushi and sashimi, as well as seasonal produce (including a raw, young eggplant that tasted like the essence of fresh fig). The chef also very kindly used the amaranth-based "shoyu" Shinji had brought for me.
Shima: First, that copper bincho oven belongs in a museum. Second, my 6oz sirloin was by far the best steak I have ever had. Third, Chef Oshima and his wife are so charming, I was tempted to ask them to adopt me. Absolute highpoint of my trip.
On my own:
a511: This restaurant takes it's kobe very seriously. The steak was very good, and suffered only in comparison to the masterpiece at Shima. I highly recommend the beef sushi--the chuck cut tasted like the beef stew my mom would make for me as a kid when I had a cold. Also, we walked in without reservations and they were totally accommodating.
yakitori at Hayashi: highly entertaining if you're up for something tourist-y. (Unfortunately, I didn't make it to Yakitori Banchou because CH was down for maintenance and I didn't have the foresight to write it down.) I wouldn't say it is safe-for-celiacs with the cross-contamination on the grill, but the ingredients were fresh and the presentation was lovely. Plus the staff, at least that night, was entirely older women so it did have the feeling of going to gran's for Sunday supper.
Les Créations de Narisawa: I must say that the chef was working within my food limitations, for which I am grateful. I also appreciated the effort to present a Japan terroir, but overall the meal seemed inconsistent. High-point: I would bathe in the chicken-pork broth if I could. Mid-point: a capsicum brunoise overpowered an otherwise beautifully presented uni. Low-point: the oyster. It was the Summer menu, so I'm curious how the other seasons would compare, but not before trying to get into some of the other highly recommended restaurants first.
So really a great first trip to Japan overall. It was not perfect, allergy-wise. I did have one forced down day, even with medications (think John Hurt in Alien, and the hotel was compensated accordingly). I can't say it was one specific trigger, more of a cumulative effect and taking some chances I probably shouldn't have. But I'll know better next time and have some recs for other eaters like me.
Thanks again for everyone's advice. I know I dropped in out of the blue. Thanks for taking it seriously and sharing what you could.
re: spotcleanfood
I am glad you enjoyed your trip and had fun !! Indeed, I know sushi Ichi, and have recommended it also 4-5 times for their affordable lunch at 3000 yens ..
re: Ninisix
Thanks! We didn't have the 3000 yen version, but I'll definitely do it if I get to go again.
re: spotcleanfood
Really great to read that you had such a successful trip and were able to find some great guides and great restaurants to accommodate you so well. :-)

Linked here is a PDF copy of my analysis of Procter & Gamble Co. (PG) (alt.1, alt.2). Below are some highlights from the above linked analysis:
Company Description: The Procter & Gamble Company (P&G) is focused on providing branded consumer goods products. The Company markets its products in more than 180 countries.
Fair Value: I consider four calculations of fair value, see page 2 of the linked PDF for a detailed description: 1.) Avg. High Yield Price, 2.) 20-Year DCF Price, 3.) Avg. P/E Price and 4.) Graham Number. PG is trading at a discount to 1.) and 3.) above. If I exclude the high and low valuation, and average the remaining two valuations, PG is trading at a 6.2% discount. A Star is added since PG is trading at a fair value.
Dividend Analytical Data: In this section I consider five factors, see page 2 of the linked PDF for a detailed description: 1.) Rolling 4-yr Div. > 15%, 2.) Dividend Growth Rate, 3.) Years of Div. Growth, 4.) 1-Yr. > 5-Yr Growth and 5.) Payout 15% of avg. PG earned two Stars in this section for 3.) and 4.) above. It has paid a cash dividend to shareholders every year since 1891 and has increased its quarterly cash dividend payments for 52 consecutive years. The "1-Yr. > 5-Yr Growth" metric indicates that PG's dividend growth has experienced acceleration.
Dividend Income vs. MMA: Why would you assume the equity risk and invest in a dividend stock if you could earn a better return in a much less risky money market account (MMA)? This section compares the earning ability of this stock with a high yield MMA. Two items are considered in this section, see page 2 of the linked PDF for a detailed description: 1.) NPV MMA Diff. and 2.) Years to >MMA. Unfortunately, PG earned no Stars in this section. The NPV MMA Diff of $2,265 is is below the level I like to see for a blue-chip company. The 11 years needed for the dividend income to equal a MMA paying the long-term average rate of 4.61% is one more then the 10 years maximum I like to see.
Other: PG is a well-managed company that produces consumer staples. PG's ability to consistently grow its dividend over different economic cycles has made it a staple in most dividend investors portfolio. The risk of PG experiencing a significant downturn is less than most companies since demand for household and personal care products is generally stable and not affected by changes in the economy or geopolitical factors.
Conclusion: PG earned a Star in the Fair Value section, earned two Stars in the Dividend Analytical Data section and earned no Stars in the Dividend Income vs. MMA section for a net total of 3 Stars. This rates PG as a 3 Star-Hold.
PG is one of those Blue-Chip stocks that I would love to have in my portfolio. It has made significant strides since I reviewed it back in February. At that time it rated as a 0 Star-Avoid stock. What's changed? At that time it was selling for $66.21 vs $63.13 today; it has increased its dividend resulting in a current yield of 2.47% now vs 2.12% in February. The NPV MMA Diff is now $2,265 vs a negative $900 in February.
Am I ready to buy? Not quite, but it is getting very close. Using my [D4L-PreScreen.xls]model I determined that a price of $58.11 would lower the "Years to >MMA" to 10 and increase NPV of MMA Differential to over $3,000. I would be very comfortable initiating a position between $58 and $60.
Disclaimer: Material presented here is for informational purposes only. The above quantitative stock analysis, including the Star rating, is mechanically calculated and is based on historical information. The analysis assumes the stock will perform in the future as it has in the past. This is generally never true. Before buying or selling any stock you should do your own research and reach your own conclusion. See my Disclaimer for more information.
Full Disclosure: At the time of this writing, I do not own shares of PG (0.0% of my Income Portfolio).
