|Mont Harmon prepares to go on offense last year against Helper.
The Mont Harmon Pirates put on a defensive clinic, downing the Canyon View Cougars 12-0 on Sept. 5.
"We were much better this week," said Coach Jeff Blanc of his football team. "They corrected many of the mistakes we were making early in the season, especially on offense."
Dillon Manzanares ran for 104 yards in the game and scored the team's only touchdown. Jordan Blanc turned on the afterburners and blew by the Cougar defense with a 75 yard kick-off return to start the third quarter.
"Once we got ahead, our defense really put on the pressure," said Blanc. "Our defense has been strong all season and just keeps getting better."
According to Blanc, Sammy Manarite and Manzanares also had stand-out performances on defense leading their team from the linebacker core.
Mont Harmon held the Cougars to 57 total yards gained while racking up 220 yards of offense.
"If we keep getting better we are going to be hard to beat," said Blanc. "We are really playing good ball."

This is in the kitchen, although there are not that many Indian books here ('Indian Everyday' is from the library) except the small booklets at the end.

I noticed on the photos of your sheves you have you that book "Indian Everyday". I had bought that book, but in the headnote for her sandesh recipe she claims that sandesh comes from Gujarat!! I could not help but to return it the next day.

Those little hands belong to my 17-month old daughter, who justs insists on being in front of the camera/mirror all the time. Such vanity! Heaven knows she doesn't get it from her parents!
Monica, how can you resist opening the boxes? I wouldn't be able to sleep at night if I had a few untouched cookbooks lying around like that. I even spent a whole day at the hotel browsing through my newly acquired cookbooks when I was supposed to be sightseeing in LA! I know, I'm quite insane....at least here on eGullet people understand my need to do such crazy things.
Edward, like I said, 'Indian everyday' is from the library. I tried a few recipes, but none of them were very nice, and not just from the absence of fat. I also got annoyed with the wrong hindi names of the dishes (there were many, but I can't remember a single one). If 'Paneer ka Mithai' (I'm not sure this dish exists in the book - I'm just giving an example) is correct then I must re-sit my hindi exams.

How do you like the Wazwaan book? I just ordered it a few days ago but I couldn't find any book reviews.
Posted 21 July 2004 - 09:47 PM
527! Sleepy dragon, it was great taking a peek at your collection . What is the one third from the top? What are Smita Chandra's books like?
The third one is The Essential Kodava Cookbook, by C. B. Muthamma and P. Gangamma Bopanna. It's part of the Penguin Books India regional series, recommended by mongo_jones here awhile back. Looks excellent, but I haven't tried to cook out of it yet.
As for Smita Chandra's books, I've only leafed through "Cuisines of India" so far. Seems good, even has a section with a few Indo-Chinese recipes too. The only thing that annoys me about it is she seems to go out of her way to try and tell some kind of story to preface every single recipe, and some of them are a real stretch in terms of relevancy.
"From Bengal to Punjab" I've cooked about 1/4 of the recipes. It was hit or miss, but mostly I attribute that to my lack of skill back then. I've been thinking about picking it up again just to see how age and experience has improved things. I hope!
I learned to make paneer from her book, and the kheer recipe was one I got lots of requests for. Mind, this was 11 or so years ago when people knew even less about Indian food, and so the combination of rice pudding with cardamom and rose water was wildly exciting. Straightforward stuff of the broad overview variety. I don't think this book is in print anymore, but by today's standards, it doesn't strike me as a must-have given the number of broad overview types of books out there nowadays. It will always have a special place in my library though.
There are notes I scrawled in the margins ages ago that are rather amusing to read now, stuff like "Use 1/2 amount of chili called for", or in one case, a line calling for "1/4 tsp cayenne pepper" scratched out and replaced with "Just a pinch!". Christ, I used to be such a wimp...
Posted 21 July 2004 - 09:58 PM
The word that keeps coming to mind is "sumptuous". It's a little book, but is jam-packed with carefully prepared recipes and nice photographs. It's also very heavy on the meat, which I guess is a given for Muslim feasting.
How do you like the Wazwaan book? I just ordered it a few days ago but I couldn't find any book reviews.
I haven't tried to make anything out of this yet because I've been putting off making my own ver.
I did try to make a Kashmiri kahdi recipe from the other Kashmiri cookbook in that stack, and didn't care for it, the combination of mint, yogurt and mustard oil just didn't interest me, and the fritters were bland. But, the peanut gallery would probably say that served me right given that publisher also came out with that Balti cookbook!

I actually avoid buying most of the Indian cookbooks coming out now because they are so annoying. There's a huge flood of books coming into the market - Indian publishers seem to have convinced themselves that cookbooks and self helf books are the only ones that sell so they are overinvesting in them. And just like every second person you meet at cocktail parties seems to have a novel in them, every second housewife who can cook halfway decently is being told to produce a cookbook. And they do.
The result is a flood of copycat (literally sometimes), badly produced (though standards are rising) and profoundly uninteresting cookbooks. I don't doubt the cooking skills of the people producing them (though reading about the things they do to exotic vegetables makes me wonder about their morals), but there's some skill involved in doing a cookbook and since none of them seem to have looked at other cookbooks - other than Tarla-ben's of course, since she's the one who got them hooked on the idea you could make money from it - the results are floods of identical books.
Luckily its dawning on publishers that the market is not infinitely elastic for these books, so now more effort is being made to differentiate and come up with something new. More community cookbooks are coming out and these are the ones I really collect. Anything that gives some sign of having real authenticity behind it, anything that talks about ingredients or about how the food was cooked and consumed - competition is finally pushing publishers to realise the importance of all this. Even Tarla-ben, who I had long written off as too deep into mistreating babycorn in microwaves, has come up with a book idea like her "Achar aur Parathe" book, an idea that just instinctively feels good.
I'm going to put a list of my books, but in the next email since that will be loooong,
Posted 23 July 2004 - 10:39 AM
Instead I though it would hopefully not be too tedious if I listed them out, along with comments. I'd like to hear other people's remarks on what they felt about the books in their collection (helps me decide what to buy) and hopefully they might be interested in what I feel about mine. Here goes:
1) 30 Minute Indian - Sunil Vijaykar Nice book, lovely pictures (correction, probably the best Indian food photography I've seen recently), but the title should be '30 Minute Indian - If There's Someone To Do The Peeling And Chopping For You Or You Can Pick Up Most Of The Ingredient Ready To Cook'
2) 50 Great Curries of India - Camellia Punjabi Have been planning on stealing my mother's copy for ages, but finally did the decent thing and bought it. I really admire this book. It doesn't set out to be a comprehensive or even particularly representative cookbook - Eastern India, for example, is under-represented. But it gives the most thorough analysis of what goes into a curry. It dissects the steps. It investigates the ingredients, usefully dividing them into what they do for the curry - thicken, add spice, etc. It does what next to no other cookbook does - it acknowledges that chillies can vary widely and talks about the different varieties. It is also beautifully produced with good photgraphy. This one is a winner
3) Anglo-Indian Food and Customs - Patricia Brown In the Penguin series, quite nice book, though not much flair
4) Calcutta Cookbook, The - Meenakshie Das Gupta, Bunny Gupta, Jaya Chaliha The classic, though I really should buy Das Gupta's (the legendary Kewpie) Bangla Ranna
5) Chicken Cook Book - Rashmi Uday Singh I resisted this for a bit, since it's a bit too obviously sponsored by a company, Venky's Chicken. But it has a good discussion on what chicken is like in India and the recipes are decent. Not only Indian though
6) Cooking of India (Time-Life Foods of the World series) - Santha Rama Rau Another classic, and this really is more a food book than a cookbook (especially since I don't have the accompanying recipe booklet). Its dated of course, but overall is really quite impressive.
7) Cooking with One Teaspoon of Oil - Tarla Dalal Tarlaben, with all her virtues and faults. This is decent
8) Curries & Bugles - Jennifer Brennan Another classic and probably better for reading than cooking from. But this is real culinary and family history
9) East Indian Cookery Book - East Indian Association, Ladies Committee Ladies Committees, don't you love them. I know one of the ladies involved and she is a fabulous cookbook, so I would trust this implicitly if… her daughter hadn't told me her mother always keeps some secrets to herself.
10) Epicure Cookbook, The - Ummi Abdullah Ummi Abdullah is the authority on Moplah cooking. This is a more general book.
11) Essential Andhra Cookbook, The - Bilkees Latif Part of the Penguin series, pretty good, though one better now even think of cooking from it unless you have a source for those pungent Andhra chillies
12) Essential Goa Cookbook, The - Maria Teresa Menezes I don't know why, I didn't like this much. Goan cuisine is really delicious and historically very interesting because of the fusion between so many cultures - Portueguese, Hindu, Muslim. There is a long and lively Goan tradition of appreciating and writing about food. Menezes somehow doesn't do this justice
13) Essential North-East Cookbook, The - Hoihnu Hauzel Very interesting, though it does induce that usual sense of guilt, "oh god, we Indians really know nothing about those Northeastern states, can you even name them all?" This is a nice book, but I have to say that while we do need to know about the Northeastern states, I'm not convinced we need actual exposure to their food that much.
14) Flavours of Delhi - Charmaine O'Brien Good book, wish there were more of this kind. Guide to Delhi, to buying ingredients there, eating there, cooking there
15) Flavours of the Spice Coast - Mrs.K.M.Mathew A classic, and this edition is well produced too. This is the standard book on Malayali (I REFUSE to say Keralan) food, perhaps with more of a Syrian Christian emphasis. Its known for its peculiar insistence on a dessertspoon as a significant measure. The recipes are good, but do take quite a bit of work
16) Fresh Flavours of India - Das Sreedharan A really beautifully produced book, this was a revelation to me about how Indian food could be photographed. I know the food he's talking about, I grew up eating this sort of Malayali food and I know its strictly OK, nout outstanding, but he had me salivating. Yet I feel the recipes don't entirely work. Restaurant owners writing books for home cooking doesn't always come off, and this doesn't.
17) Himalayan Recipes - Inner Wheel Club of Darjeeling Another ladies committee. I bought this book for its frank use of 'buff' for beef, acknowledging that most Indian beef comes from water buffaloes. Also got a recipe for momos that sounds worth trying
18) Home Encyclopaedia - J.B.Lobo This one is a trip! Its one of those Inquire Within About Everything volumes. So in addition to giving a whole bunch of Mangalorean recipes, you can also learn the best way to polish brass, raise chickens, deal with menstrual pains and fight depression.
19) Indian Cooking Mrs.Balbir Singh - One of the first Indian cookbooks published abroad and still sound, though of course it seems dated now. But that's part of the interest with it
20) Indian Delights Zuleika Mayat - The classic South African Indian cookbook. Interesting variations on Indian recipes, with some SA ones. Also meant for large community bashes, so if you want instruction on how to make biriani for 150 people, this is the one to buy!
21) Indian Food Sense - Ruth N.Davidar The best book on Indian food from a nutritionist's angle. Its not a fancy book - no pix - but its laid out in a calm and reasonable style. You don't get that faintly manic eat-20-figs-a-day-and-your-life-will-be-perfect feeling that some nutritionists give you. The recipes are simple but good
22) Indian Kitchen, The - Monisha Bharadwaj The essential book on Indian ingredients. It's a good looking book, covers nearly all ingredients competently and gives a couple of recipes for each. A little more scientific information would have been welcome, but this is still a must buy.
23) Invitation to Indian Cooking, An - Madhur Jaffrey I think many of us started with this one and it is excellent. The recipes are north Indian-Delhi style and feel really authentic (something that can't be said of Ms.Jaffrey's more extravagant excursions to the Far East). She also demonstrates that she can write well about food and her family - I like the story of her grandmother's lime pickle
24) Jamva Chaloji - 1 - Katy Dalal A good compilation of Parsi recipes from someone who's a famous cook in Bombay
25) Jamva Chaloji - 2 - Katy Dalal More interesting. In this book Ms.Dalal set out to resurrect the recipes of the Parsis in the villages on the Gujarat coast, a way of life that largely disappeared as most of them moved to Bombay. So this has a historical value the first book didn't have.
26) Joy of Vegetarian Cooking - Jasleen Dhamija Just picked it up, decent book
27) Landour Cookbook, The - Ruskin Bond, Ganesh Saili This is interesting for a rare example of American recipes cropping up in India. Landour was a base for several American missionary families and this book has been put together from their recipes and those of others who lived in this North Indian hill station.
28) Lean Cuisine - Karen Anand Karen's recipes are reliable and she is one person who has bases both in nutrition and in gastronomy. Her second book is about international recipes, but this is solidly Indian. She has a useful discussion on ingredients. I also very much agree with her extolling the benefits of Maharahtrian cooking, both of the Konkan coast and the interiors near Kolhapur. Its great and healthy food and too often overlooked.
29) Life & Food in Bengal - Chitrita Banerji This is an absolute must have. Chitrita Banerji is one of the few real food writers in India and this book combines her excellent writing on food in Bengali culture, and across the seasons in Bengal, with serviceable recipes. It is currently out of print but happily a friend at Penguin tells me they will probably be taking it up
30) Low Calorie Recipes - Nita Mehta Nita Mehta is a Tarlaben without the hype and occasional excesses that surrounds that lady now (like you're less likely to find Ms.Mehta doing cruel and unusual things to broccoli and babycorn). She done a whole series of small and useful books and I'm sure there are several others at home, lost somewhere in the kitchen
31) Malabar Muslim Cooking - Ummi Abdullah This igives all the classic Moplah (Muslim Malayali) recipes including some rather over the top ones like muttamala - sort of a garland of fried sweetened eggs, or at least that's what I've understood from the recipe!
32) Monsoon Diary - Shobha Narayan Indian girl grows up in Chennai, goes to study in the US, wants to discover her roots, has arranged marriage, etc etc all accompanied by recipes. The recipes work, the writing is sound, this is all good food writing. So why did I end up feeling the writer was just that little bit too smug for her own good?
33) Parsi Food & Culture, The - Bhicoo J.Manekshaw Another compilation of Parsi recipes, even more voluminous that Katy Dalal's. I really quite like this book, though it couldn't be plainer. There a brisk no nonsense air about the recipes that inspires confidence. With Katy Dalal the recipes sound great, but rather daunting, here they don't
34) Prasadam: Food of the Gods - Nalini Rajan Good explanation of religious rituals and the role food plays in them. This seems to have been commissioned as a fairly quick and cheap book, so the author, who I think is a sociologist, doesn't have that much space or resources so there's always this sense of a more interesting book inside this one
35) Prashad Jiggs Kalra - A classic, though of a particular kind. Jiggs' strategy to preserving Indian food traditions is to get five star hotels to develop ethnic restaurants or food festivals where the food can be cooked and experienced. I have mixed feelings about this. On the one hand the recipes are being preserved and hopefully appreciated. The system also rewards the cooks, generally overlooked otherwise in India. This is seen at its best with the revival of the whole Dum Pukht tradition with Chef Imtiaz Qureishi. Nonetheless I still feel that something goes wrong with doing this in the five star hotel framework. Its artificially preserving a tradition, and at a costthat takes it away from its roots. There is also an element of hype here that I don't like. Anyway, those general quibbles aside, this is a very valuable volume and covers a pretty huge territory. But it really is directed at professionals more than home chefs - just the way the recipes are written indicates that.
36) Raj at Table, The - David Burton A very good book. Raj history and food is done professionally, but with a light touch. Not personal like the Brennan book, but in some ways better for that.
37) Rasachandrika - Sarawat Mahila Samaj A community classic - this is the cooking of the Saraswats of Mahrashtra, maintained and updated by a ladies committee. This is a very functional book - the recipes could not be stated more tersely. But it has immense authority.
38) Recipes of the Jaffna Tamils - Mesa Eliezer An interesting book, both for highlighting the cooking of a diasporic community that is so close to India, yet in many ways so far. But its also interesting for another reason. Tamil cooking is dominated by the vegetarian food of the Tamil Brahmins. Recently the rich and hot non-vegetarian cooking of the Chettiars is also making an impact. But in between is the ordinary non-vegetarian cooking of the bulk of Tamilians and that isn't highlighted much in India. But the Tamilians who went to Sri Lanka were neither Brahmins nor Chettiar traders and this is what their food reflects.
39) Rotis & Naans of India - Purobi Babbar Quite interesting, covers all the usual Indian breads and quite a few unusual ones. As always I have my usual dilemmas with bread - should one go to trouble of making them so one can have the delight of having them fresh? Or should one just acknowledge that breads are too tricky to master easily and who has the time when there are people making perfectly good versions round the corner?
40) Samaithu Paar - 1 - S.Meenakshi Ammal The TamBrahm classics. Of course one must have all three, though the versions I have are the modernised ones, so none of those old measures like ollocks, visses and seers. More practical, I guess, but something is lost
41) Samaithu Paar - 2 - S.Meenakshi Ammal
42) Samaithu Paar - 3 - S.Meenakshi Ammal
43) Taste of India, A - Madhur Jaffrey A must have, the counterpoint to her earlier book, where she does a good job of covering most Indian regions and as always her writing is good and the recipes entirely reliable.
44) Taste of the Raj - Pat Chapman From the founder of the Curry Club in the UK. He has a long family history with India and snippets about that provide the main interest in this book.
45) Udipi Cuisine - U.B.Rajalakshmi Another community cookbook, the Mangalorean Hindus this time. This has slightly more than community interest because Mangaloreans have come to dominate a segment of the restaurants business - all those excellent Udipi places serving South Indian food at cheap prices and hygienic surroundings. We tend to think of this food as vaguely "Southie", presumed Tamilian, but in fact Mangalorean/Mysore Tamil is more like it.
46) Ultimate Curry Bible - Madhur Jaffrey A really interesting book, I'd say Ms.Jaffrey's masterwork, if her Invitation and Taste of India books weren't more likely to be used. The main interest in this is cultural because its her investigation of the food of the Indian diaspora. So you get interesting and moving stories, along with their recipes and discussions about how they adapted Indian recipes to their new homelands.
And I'll add the food books. Just remembered I have a photocopy of the Khare book "The Hindu Hearth and Home" which I am still struggling through - its formidably academic! :
1) Anthropology of Sweatmeats A.K.Sinha Rather dry and occasionally a bit weird as in his attempt to do a classification of sweets. Also its mostly focused on the sweets of Bengal and Bihar (which the writer states upfront). But it is a valuable effort in doing fieldwork about Indian food and we need many more such projects like this.
2) Brahma's Hair Maneka Gandhi Its really a book about Indian plants and their mythological significance, but many of the plants covered are edible that's why I'm including it.
3) Curry in the Crown Shrabani Basu OK attempt to cover how curry achieved its status in the UK. I think this is a very good magazine article that didn't quite work in the conversion into a book, but its very readable
4) Historical Dictionary of Indian Food K.T.Achaya This is the more concise version of Achaya's masterwork and in fact probably the more useful book. Organising his work in a systematic way doesn't seem to have been Achaya's strong point so the Companion can be a rather baffling book to read. This book gives the same information in a tighter format.
5) Hour of the Goddess Chitrita Banerji Excellent. Essays on Bengali food, the book's only fault is that it is too short!
6) Indian Food: A Historical Companion K.T.Achaya As I said, Achaya's masterwork, and I crib about his lack of organisation and the writing is not of the best, but really where would we be without this book. No one put in the sort of effort Achaya did in researching the origins of Indian food, and since no one seems to be doing it today either, his work is all that more important.
7) Myth of the Holy Cow, The D.N.Jha The controversial book that had the Hindu right up in arms for stating that ancient Indians used to eat beef. The evidence is pretty conclusive and the book is an important one.
8) Spices & Condiments J.S.Pruthi Government of India publication, TERRIBLE printing quality, but useful facts
9) Story of Our Food, The K.T.Achaya Achaya's short and sweet version, meant for children I think. Its OK, covers all the main points rapidly
10) Three Fs of Life, The Gul Anand Gul Anand was a well known film producer and food entrepreneur who died a couple of years back. This is anecdotal stuff about his encounters with food. To use a Bombay term, its quite time-pass.
11) Travels With the Fish C.Y.Gopinath Slightly better version of the above, since Gopi is a better writer. His life and times and travels accompanied by recipes
12) Vegetables Bishwajit Choudhury Another Government of India type publication, good facts on Indian vegetables.
Posted 23 July 2004 - 10:57 AM
15) Flavours of the Spice Coast - Mrs.K.M.Mathew A classic, and this edition is well produced too. This is the standard book on Malayali (I REFUSE to say Keralan) food, perhaps with more of a Syrian Christian emphasis. Its known for its peculiar insistence on a dessertspoon as a significant measure. The recipes are good, but do take quite a bit of work
Just added this to my collection

If this helps with the recommendation: I fell in love with indian food eating my friends' parents' home cooking, particularly gujarati and punjabi. I've tried to get their mothers to teach me recipes but it's always "some of this, then some of that" (the kind of recipes anyone's mother gives) so the only thing I know how to do reasonably well is chana masala. Maybe I should go back to California and get apprenticed in one of their kitchens!
refresh me with apples,
for I am faint with love.

What do people typically do nowadays if they aren't? Surely not storebought? That kind of advance strikes me as the sort of thing that would cause grandmothers and ancestors to roll over in their graves.
Ver! I am not sure how many people make this anymore. Even the Kashmiris.
Posted 24 July 2004 - 12:26 AM
Interesting, I had no idea the Achaya book I've got is the briefer (!) one. But yes, overall I agree about what a treasure trove of information it is. Also interesting was finding the familiar bits I had read elsewhere. Seems like other cookbook authors like to quote him a lot! Can't blame them.
12) Essential Goa Cookbook, The - Maria Teresa Menezes I don't know why, I didn't like this much. Goan cuisine is really delicious and historically very interesting because of the fusion between so many cultures - Portueguese, Hindu, Muslim. There is a long and lively Goan tradition of appreciating and writing about food. Menezes somehow doesn't do this justice
I'd actually been hesitating about this book even though I'd like to learn more about Goan cuisine. Just the cover alone was a turn-off, spoke to that prejudiced part of my brain that said this is probably form over substance.
Is it just her style or are the recipes not that great as well?

If you reject the food, ignore the customs, fear the religion and avoid the people, you might better stay home.

K I would have said, 'God, no!'" ate Beckinsale's canyon home on the cusp of Brentwood and Santa Monica is always full of people. "We generally have half an army of teenage girls rampaging through our house," she laughs, tossing cascading locks, flashing a devastating smile as she describes the abode she shares with her husband of nine years, director Len Wiseman, and her 14-year-old daughter, Lily. "Len was initially a bit alarmed. I think teenage girls are a little frightening to dads, but he's usually in the thick of it. And if he's not, he's one of those brilliant people who doesn't mind when they find him in his man cave and tease him mercilessly. There is nothing nicer than six or seven screeching girls having a great time in your house." In addition to the teens, Beckinsale's mother, British actress Judy Loe, and her stepfather, director Roy Battersby, come and visit for weeks on end. "I miss her!" she says unabashedly. "They have always been very, very present in Lily's life. And her dad's parents come out, and everyone has stayed with us. It's like Paddington Station." Add Beckinsale's herd of animals—"three dogs that don't really count because they are of squirrelish size and an incredible cat called Clive"—and you believe her when she likens their white, airy, high-ceilinged home to a little asylum. At 40, Beckinsale seems incredibly happy, settled in her life and firmly ensconced in Los Angeles. She moved to Venice from London 12 years ago with her then partner and Lily's father, actor Michael Sheen. "Lily was two—we could take her anywhere; so Michael and I had the luxury of saying, 'Let's do L.A. for a bit.' And then three months turned into four and then…" She unexpectedly met her now husband a year later, when she and Sheen were both cast in Underworld (2003). Wiseman was directing; they fell in love on set, and she and Sheen separated. What could have become sorry tabloid fodder was surpassed by the maturity of all three parties involved, who remain good friends to this day. "From the beginning," Beckinsale explains, "we put Lily first, and then it was kind of easy." Wiseman and Beckinsale married at the Hotel Bel-Air on May 9, 2004; their first reading was a passage from Philip Pullman's The Amber Spyglass, and Lily received her own wedding ring. Beckinsale's background didn't necessarily portend a Hollywood outcome. Her parents were successful English actors, yes, but she lost her father, the much-loved television star Richard Beckinsale, when she was only five. His heart attack at 31 gave her, she says, a brutal introduction to mortality. She was also so bright, her future looked academic. When she was six, a school report found she had the reading level of an 11-year-old and an IQ of 152. She didn't go to drama school, opting for Oxford University instead, where she studied French and Russian literature. In her first year, however, she was torn from her Dostoyevsky to star in Kenneth Branagh's film Much Ado About Nothing, and her fate appeared more celluloid English Rose than Susan Sontag. Established as an international name opposite Ben Affleck and Josh Hartnett in Pearl Harbor and with John Cusack in the romantic comedy Serendipity (both in 2001), she has since been surprised to find herself defined as an action heroine; Underworld evolved into a four-part franchise with Beckinsale as the rubber-clad vampire warrior Selene. And her subsequent leads in Van Helsing (2004) and Total Recall (2012) have only added to the kick-ass reputation. "It's an odd trajectory," she muses. "If you'd asked me when I was at Oxford, 'Do you think you'll ever be running up and down holding a machine gun as a bad guy in a big American movie?' I would have said, 'God, no!'" Recently, though, she has chosen roles that will redefine her. She next appears as a hysteric in the 2014 psychological thriller Eliza Graves, an interpretation of Edgar Allan Poe's The System of Doctor Tarr and Professor Fether. Starring alongside Michael Caine, Ben Kingsley and Jim Sturgess, it tells the tale of a Harvard medical graduate who accepts a job in a mental institution, unaware it has been overtaken by its occupants. And in The Trials of Cate McCall (also due out next year), Beckinsale plays a lawyer in recovery, taking on the appeal of a woman convicted of committing murder to gain custody of her daughter. "My co-star Anna Anissimova bought me the most amazing wrap present," she reveals. "I think I must have been saying, 'I want a Pomeranian dog,' on set so many times without realizing it, that she got me one! I don't really approve of people giving animals as presents, but I think she was just trying to put me out of my misery. She's called Myf—short for Myfanwy—and we are besotted." Which brings us back to home and family, clearly where Beckinsale's priorities lie. "As a parent, you are never off the hook. Never." She smiles, "It's a full-time job. I mean, how many times do I call my mother. Stricken with something, going, 'Help! Help!' And I'm very old to be doing these things." She credits her mother with teaching her to value interdependence. "I think it is a hugely underrated quality to have. I'm all for it. And my mother is absolutely CONTINUED ON PAGE 152 C 117 C MAGAZINE C MAGAZINE CONTINUED FROM PAGE 110 who runs the company with his wife, Gaiane. Danilian and Morr hatched a plan to create Kings of the Dance in 2006, a jewel box show featuring four of the most athletic male dancers in the world, who would be performing a mixture of new pieces and timeworn classics. The collaborations have only become more ambitious: In 2006, Ardani and Morr brought 600 people in from Russia—two orchestras, an opera company, a ballet company "You have to reload yourself to understand [each choreographer's] new style and it's very painful," says Diana Vishneva. and a chorus—to commemorate the opening of the new concert hall and the 25th anniversary of the center. Vishneva debuted Beauty in Motion here in 2008, and in 2011, Reflections became an artists-in-residence program of sorts, with six of the most senior ballerinas from Russia spending weeks living at the Wyndam Hotel and working with various choreographers. "We bring a really great creative, emotional life to the center," Danilian says. "During Reflections, Henry Segerstrom and his wife, Elizabeth, came to watch rehearsal one Saturday and he told me, 'I'm going to stay half an hour.' He ended up spending four hours watching. Afterward, he hugged me and said, 'Now I understand why we built this theater.'" Five years ago, Vishneva crossed the stage of the Bolshoi Theatre in Moscow to collect The Golden Mask award (which is a little bit like a Tony in the Russian performing arts world). "It's unbelievable," marvels Danilian. "People in Moscow are shocked that the center is so far away, and yet they give the programming the national award in Russia." But that's what happens when you bring together this unusual triumvirate. "If people trust each other, it can create a really good collaboration," Danilian explains. Morr agrees: "I would say he has the same admiration and respect for artists that I have. And whenever somebody decides to go forward on a project, we both will turn the world upside down to make it happen." The winners? Vishneva thinks she's pretty lucky. "Who doesn't love Orange County?" she says incredulously. On the Edge, Nov. 6-10; scfta.org. • PLAYING IT COOL CONTINUED FROM PAGE 117 brilliant at celebrating things. You get on an airplane, you've just said goodbye to her, and you open your bag and there is a card in there. And C 152 NOVEMBER 2013 my husband and I have completely taken that over. I don't think I've ever gotten on a flight or gone on a trip and not opened my bag and had a card from Len. He even does it when he goes out for the evening, leaving a card under my pillow. There is something really nice about maintaining a connection and never getting used to being separate in a complacent way." She does miss her native London horribly sometimes. "The minute I get back, I want to lick the brickwork and learn the tube map all over again," she says. "And in a low moment I can be found at Ye Olde King's Head in Santa Monica weeping over a pack of bourbon biscuits. Or I find myself gripping a Pot Noodle in a nostalgic way. All those things that have been in your mother's cupboard since the 1970s…" But she has gradually grown to love Los Angeles. "I have fantastic friends here," she says in earnest. "I thought I was really depressed growing up, but I actually hadn't seen sunlight in 14 years. And I come out here and I'm in perfectly good spirits." Christmas, she says, may well be back in England, but until then, Wiseman continues work on "Sleepy Hollow," the Fox series he has created, written and directed, and Beckinsale is about to start writing a screenplay of her own with a close friend. "It's about a very, very dysfunctional set of people," she explains. "My friend and I went to the same school in London. And I wrote a lot as a child and was constantly winning writing competitions. And my mother asked her over because she wanted to become a writer. And of course she became a writer and I became ridiculous." Candid, honest and alarmingly funny, Beckinsale remarks that the future looks bright, unless, she laughs, she comes face to face with a local mountain lion. "It's a very real fear of mine," she says. "So if you find me half eaten at the bottom of Rustic Canyon, you'll know the chain of events." • ILLUSIONS LIKE SWAN LAKE AND LE PARC : SASHA GOULIAEV BORN-AGAIN BALLERINA

Being romantically linked with Maria Sharapova on Twitter may be Bulgarian rising star Grigor Dimitrov's biggest claim to date.
But the youngest player in the world's top 50 may be known for claiming a few high profile men's scalps on the tennis court by year's end judging by his impressive Brisbane International form.
Bulgaria's Dimitrov, 21, blushed on Sunday when quizzed about setting Twitter alight in recent days.
But he confidently claimed he could take on tennis elite in the big tournaments after pushing US Open champion Andy Murray in the Brisbane final before succumbing 7-6 (7-0) 6-4.
Already drawing comparisons with Roger Federer, Dimitrov showed he may bridge the gap between being called the next big thing and becoming it, sooner rather than later.
His ranking is expected to jump from No.48 to 39 after the stirring display.
Another head-turning effort at this week's Sydney International may ensure he is more known for his ability ahead of the Australian Open than those Sharapova rumours.
"This week was definitely an exciting week for me. I'm not going to hide that," he said.
"It was an amazing feeling to go out there today and be able to play tennis like that - but I'm not 100 per cent satisfied, of course."
On paper, the difference between Sunday's opponents could not have been greater despite the slender four-year age gap.
Olympic champion Murray, 25, was appearing in his 38th ATP World Tour final.
Dimitrov was in his first, attempting to become the first Bulgarian to win a tour final in the 45-year open era.
But Dimitrov said he now had the confidence to take on the game's biggest names.
"Why do I have to feel intimidated? I want to play them all," he said.
"I think it's nothing better to play against these guys and do the best you can against them because eventually, long term, if you want to be good you're going to play them almost every week."
Dimitrov downed second seed Milos Raonic, No.7 Jurgen Melzer and 2006 Australian Open finalist Marcos Baghdatis in Brisbane - and he certainly turned Murray's head.
"Everyone will agree he played some extremely exciting tennis, it was a very tough match," Murray said.
"He's just started with a new (support) team - I'm sure they're going to do great things together."

Nokomis Beach, Florida - The advisory has just been lifted after high levels of bacteria closed Nokomis Beach to swimming for five days. But there's still some risk: health officials say four other beaches are on their radar. Weekly test results on Tuesday show bacteria levels higher than usual.
Health officials are retesting the water at Blind Pass, Manasota Key, Venice Beach and Bird Key Park at the Ringling Causeway. Results are expected Thursday and health officials will decide then if a no swim advisory is needed.
It was a beautiful day on Nokomis Beach for sunbathing. "Bit of breeze, the sun is nice and warm," says Lisa Mahla, visiting from Pittsburgh.
Sarasota lifts no swim advisory for Nokomis Beach, but 4 more beaches at risk.
But it's not a good day for bathing in the water. A "no swim" advisory had been posted for nearly a week, due to high levels of bacteria; twice the normal limits according to Sarasota County health officials.
Lisa says, "I have no desire go in the water, getting my feet wet and risk getting sick."
Despite warnings from life guards, some visitors went for a swim anyway.
"I think they're crazy," says Lisa.
"I took my chances. Why not?" says Justin Bryant, visiting from Indiana.
Tom Higginbotham, the Environmental Director for the Sarasota County Health Department says anyone with cuts, skins abrasions or who swallow too much water can get sick. "Gastrointestinal problems, vomiting and diarrhea," says Higginbotham.
"We're very concerned. This is an unacceptable situation. If it's man-made we have to stop it. This one is very troubling," says John Ryan, Environmental Manager for Sarasota County.
Environmentalists ruled out a sewage spill. Ryan says bacteria naturally found in algae may be to blame or storm water run-off.
The bacteria first turned up along Venice Beach just south of Nokomis about a week ago and now in Nokomis. Environmentalists say the bacteria are not the kind that moves up along the coast, but may turn up at another beach if conditions are right.
Higginbotham says,"It (the bacteria) is always there. At times it flares up, especially during the warm season, when we see greater runoff from heavy rainfall."
Next time you see a no swim advisory at the beach? Higginbotham says, "Our advice don't go into the water."
Each week, Sarasota County tests 16 sites along 34 miles of beaches.

Last nights mega commute was a nice ride with the quiet bank holiday roads, but this time, we faced a new enemy – WIND!!…gusty, unpredictable, snatchy, energy sapping wind. So I asked around the team for some tips, here they are:
1. Ride behind someone else
2. Get a good pedalling rhythm
3. Get as low as possible, your frontal area slows you down
4. Turn your music up loud & don't look at the speedo! (N.B, do not use earphones in towns, this is very dangerous for other road users!)
5. Knees as close together and hand close on the bars to avoid the drag
6. Forget deep section / disc wheels
7. Head out into the wind so the return leg is easier!
8. Try riding one gear lower and in the drops
9. Avoid carrying backpacks or wearing baggy clothing (Johan Van Summeren style skin suit anyone?)
10. And for mountain bikers – stay in the forest!
What tips do you have everyone? Let us know!

Ensure no item of clothing or luggage is flapping in the wind. The drag caused by this can slow you down considerably.
Be particularly aware of strong gusts of wind that may blow you into the path of following traffic. In particular large cities with high rise buildings can channel winds unexpectedly and ferociously.
Good tips Tim, thank you!
Point 4: It makes me cringe whenever I see another cyclist listening to music in towns or cities I guess it's not so bad out of busier areas…
Hi Jo – yes, good point – this is more meant for out of town mileage. Music and city riding does not mix!
I would also say that staying relaxed helps – it saves you energy and helps you stay comfortable.
You can buy headphones for cyclists now. They are called Air Drives. They let a certain amount of ambient noise in so you can stay aware. On a windy day though all I can hear is the buffeting.
I rode a circular route round the Campsies – why was the wind ALWAYS in my face !!!
On a windy day, choose a route that helps shelter you a little. Trees give create protection from the wind. Rolling hills help a lot too. Or just Enjoy the Challenge and feel the burn. It's great resistance training.
The highway code doesn't say you can't or shouldn't wear headphones but then it doesn't say you MUST wear a helmet. It says you should. That makes it optional but personally I wouldn't cycle without a helmet and I won't wear headphones.
I've tried to alert other cyclists with headphones to my presence before to overtake on roads and cycle paths and they can't hear a thing. They are just blissfully cycling along unaware of everything around them.
I'm sure it's very nice for them and as another cyclist I'm unlikely to run them over but it can be frustrating.
I have found that it doesn't half scare the c**p out of people when you zip past and they have no idea you were even there. You may be able to hear the ambient noise of the traffic or an approaching car but it would appear that you can't hear another virtually silent cyclist with headphones on even when they ring their bell or even shout at you!
I'm expecting to be mindful of iPodestrians who can't hear me approaching so I do the same with cyclists in headphones.
If they want to take the risk then that's their lookout but some consideration to others (pedestrians, cyclists and other road users) would always be appreciated.
@Tim Benson – interesting product!
@Chris Swallow – well said, personally I couldn't bear to not be aware of my surroundings riding anywhere, especially in the city. A lot of responsible cyclists do swear by music as a training aid though – so perhaps it comes down to common sense about where you are and respect for other road users.
also beware of gates in field a strong side wind can blow you right across the road if your not expecting it
don't get fat or u will have a large surface area which will slow you down
don't have big balls

This is important because the open hunting season for wolves will get the entire population of wolves killed near the Yellowstone area. Wolves are being slaughtered by people near Yellowstone because they think that every wolf is the same. There was recently a wolf that was killed after barely stepping out of the parks protective zone. This wolf was considered one of the most well-known wolves in the United States. The wolf (832F) was killed because they thought that it could potentially be a threat. In fact this wolf had rarely ever left Yellowstone, and most certainly never caused any harm outside the park.
There have been hundreds of wolves killed that did not do any harm to the areas that surround Yellowstone, and if the wolves are not put back on the endangered species list hundreds, if not thousands, more could be killed on the basis that they might pose a threat.

Get Blessed Black Wings first, or just sample tunes from their Myspace. Death Is This Communion is their most progressive release so its got elements the other albums don't, so I think checking out the songs on their page will give you a good idea what its all about in a general sense (they don't have any other songs really like "Khanrad's Wall" or "Cyclopean Scape" for example). Production-wise they've gotten cleaner over the years and style-wise they've gotten thrashier I think, while also more melodic. Still the drums have a really unique super heavy sound and obviously the guitar playing is 100% discernible as Matt Pike since his style is so distinct. The first two albums The Art Of Self Defense and Surrounded By Thieves are sludgier, doomier, and more stoner than Blessed Black Wings and Death Is This Communion. High On Fire are one of my favorite bands, dig it

The changes focus on what are called commissaries. That's where mobile food vendors take their units to be inspected and cleaned. It's supposed to happen daily, but some are concerned that is not happening. Health and Human Services Assistant Director Doctor Michael Terraso oversees environmental health.
"We're looking at possibly some electronic mechanism to do that so we are asking council to give us the authority to investigate and come back and see what it would cost. Again, it's just a verification that they are doing what they are required to do under the ordinance."
The proposed ordinance would not change the requirement to be within 500 feet of a restroom.Working Families Association Field Director Orell Fitzsimmons says City Council is addressing a problem that doesn't exist.
"It's incredible how competitive these, if people don't like the tacos they are eating they go to another stand, there's so many of them. It's not a problem in the community being served by the taco stands it's really just a visual nuisance to certain types of people. It has nothing to do with public health."
Some council members on the committee expressed concern over the city's ability to enforce the ordinance. There are 43 city employees who inspect just about 1,000 mobile food vendors and the thousands of restaurants. Harris County has its own mobile food vendor rules to take affect September first. Vendors on wheels parked permanently must have access to a restroom within 300 feet. Vendors also must have the units cleaned daily. It's estimated about 500 mobile food vendors operate in the county. Capella Tucker, Houston Public Radio News.

Since 2008 the rise of piracy off the Somali coast has become a prominent international issue. It is said to have begun as an effort by local Somalis to protect their waters from illegal fishing and toxic waste dumping but it has undeniably become a much more complex issue.
Both commercial and private ships have been hijacked in the region and hundreds of crew members have been held hostage. In 2010 piracy activity reached a peak in the region when according to EUNAVOR 174 ships were attacked with a total of 65 boats successfully hijacked.
A coordinated counter-piracy effort has resulted as a response to the increased threat and there are now multiple agencies patrolling the Gulf Of Aden and beyond. Naval counter piracy forces operating on the high seas off the coast of Somalia, and in Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ) waters of the Gulf of Aden and the Indian Ocean state that primary authority for their activities is derived from the Law of the Sea Convention, allowing them to board, search, detain, and arrest suspected pirates. In addition there are Security Council resolutions which are said to provide authority for some counter piracy activities in the territorial sea and internal waters of Somalia, and on mainland Somalia.
Regional states including Kenya, Somaliland and the Seychelles are being made the recipients of increasing amounts of targeted aid in return for their agreement to take custody of and to prosecute alleged pirates captured by international navies in locations around the Indian Ocean.
EJF has been exploring the human rights issues associated with these counter-piracy efforts and has identified the following areas of concern:
- Legality of detention and transfer of suspected pirates to countries such as Kenya and Seychelles
- Access to justice for those transferred to countries for prosecution
- Injuries and death caused by counter piracy efforts

New York Yankees legend Don Larsen is recovering from a broken right hip he suffered when he slipped on some ice on New Year's Eve, according to the Bergen Record.
Larsen, 83, had surgery to repair the hip and is recuperating at a rehabilitation facility in Idaho.
In an email to the newspaper, Andrew Levy, Larsen's agent, said doctors are "very pleased with his progress thus far." Levy added that Larsen "is frustrated with the situation and rehabilitation, he hopes to be ready by spring training!"
Larsen, of course, is most famous for throwing the only perfect game in World Series history against the Brooklyn Dodgers in 1956. Last month, the jersey Larsen wore in that historic Game 5 performance sold at action for $756,000.
In his 14-season major league career, he was 81-91 with a 3.78 ERA. He spent five seasons with the Yankees and also pitched for six other franchises.

Want to sit down and chat with someone to help guide you through the new marketplace for affordable health insurance?
Take a number.
Northern New York residents who are uninsured or do not have affordable health coverage have to wait just a little longer before they can meet face to face with navigators who will help explain the variety of plans available under the federal Affordable Care Act.
We want to make sure were being as effective as possible, and because of that were holding off on people until the website is a bit more responsive, said Anne Marie Snell, shop navigation director at the St. Lawrence County Health Initiative, Potsdam, where the phones have been ringing off the hook.
NY State of Health, the online health insurance exchange people may use to compare and shop for health insurance coverage, was overloaded with millions of users trying to access the page Tuesday, when the six-month open enrollment period began. Again on Wednesday, log-in problems were reported, and a disclaimer at the top of the website read: Due to overwhelming interest in the NY State of Health including millions of visits during the first day of site launch the health exchange is currently having log in issues. We encourage users who are unable to log in to come back to the site later when these issues will be resolved.
The system is a requirement of the federal Affordable Care Act.
Donna Hynes, insurance program coordinator at the North Country Prenatal/Perinatal Council, said late Tuesday that the agencys few certified navigators could only take calls and answer general questions about the exchange.
Were doing a soft start here, she said. Next week, well get busy. Were fielding a lot of calls. Time will be the test.
The most common issue people have called with, Mrs. Hynes said, is people wanting to be assured that once they start the process of searching and comparing plans they dont have to make a choice right away. People want time to think about the plan, and thats what the system is designed to do, she said.
Meanwhile, Mrs. Snell said St. Lawrence County Health Initiatives navigators are trying to get the word out that if people are eligible for a tax credit and apply 100 percent of that toward paying down their new premium, they may end up owing funds if the household income increases.
Navigators there have booked their first appointments for Saturday. While some spots are available sporadically throughout the next few weeks, the agency already is booking into November.
Although people are intrigued by the new system, she said, being the first in line wont mean youll get a prize or the plan no one else can have. Plans are available at a variety of levels for all uninsured New Yorkers, or those who pay an unaffordable insurance, which equals a premium 9.5 percent or greater than their gross annual income. Small businesses also may participate.
Coverage may begin Jan. 1.
For more information, call navigators at ACR Health at 800-475-2430, North Country Prenatal/Perinatal Council at 788-8533, St. Lawrence County Health Initiative at 261-4760, or the Greater Watertown-North Country Chamber of Commerce at 788-4400.

We were made to live as a whole person in spirit, soul, and body. When Jesus healed people, He healed in a way so that the person would become a whole person. In this message, Kris shares how to live a lifestyle of wholeness.
Character matters. Whenever you emphasize grace to the place where you take away personal responsibility, you have a different gospel. There's no question that God gave you the grace to do what you do. The question is, what do you do with the grace God gave you?
We need to love and care for our entire being, not just our spirits. We are meant to be lead by the spirit, but that doesn't mean the soul and body are bad-- it means our spirit is to lead them. If we are new creations in Christ, our entire being is good, and we need to learn how to manage it to be well.
This series is a directive to the Church of Jesus Christ to restore our ruined cities and re-establish the fundamental strength of the nations. The Bible says, "Wisdom has built her house, she has hewn out her seven pillars." Herein lie the secrets of society and the commissioning of the Holy Nation of God.
Kris discusses what its like being led by the Spirit.

Dating can be expensive. Whether you plan to go out on a simple date to see the latest movie like Battleship staring Rihanna or to a Lady Gaga concert, the price you pay to impress your date can set you back quite a bit. Hopefully you held on to some of your tax refund if you plan to wine and dine that special someone, since a simple night out can cost you over $200.00 in some cities. Check out our infographic to see how much a "(not so) cheap date" cost in cities around the world.

Critics Shouldn't Have to Cover 'Game of Thrones' If They Don't Want To
May 21, 2015
Critics shouldn't bow to "Game of Thrones" or marketing pressure.
The Silence of Godly Liberals
December 21, 2010
It would be a fine thing if Democrats took the advice of TNR's Tiffany Stanley and spent more energy trying to win religious voters away from the GOP. But she misunderstands why their recent efforts to do so have mostly failed. One of the glories of religion in the United States is that, since the early nineteenth century, it has been a ferociously democratic enterprise: Pious Americans are free to join any of the dozens of faiths on offer, none of which is beholden to secular authorities for either financing or legitimacy.
Taxation Without Inspiration
December 11, 2010
William Galston is a very smart man who ably bridges the gap between academia and policy-making as well as anyone in the country. But, when it comes to giving political advice, his penchant for centrist wonkery sometimes gets the best of him. The latest example is his suggestion that President Obama should make "comprehensive tax reform" the main goal of his next two years in office. Where's the evidence that Americans would flock to his side if Obama staked his presidency on an inspirational call to build a greater, more prosperous nation—by simplifying the tax code?
To Mobilize the Indies, We Need Stronger Unions
November 25, 2010
John Judis has always been a shrewd reader of election returns. In "You've Got Them All Wrong, Mr. President," his deconstruction of "independent" voters makes clear how meaningless it is for President Obama or anyone else to credit such a huge clump of undifferentiated leaners with the power to decide who runs Congress or gets to sit in the Oval Office.
A Brand New Fallacy
October 15, 2010
Midway through her recent TNR article "Building the Progressive Brand," Sara Robinson makes one essential point: Progressives, she writes, "have always been at our best when we speak from a place of strong moral authority, rooted deeply in a daring vision of the kind of world we'd like to create." Unfortunately, she completely ignores how such visions emerged in the past and, worse, assumes that a clever ad campaign can substitute for serious political thinking and organizing. Powerful, history-changing ideologies—whether of left or right—are not commodities.
Just a Mess
October 13, 2010
Bill McKibben has penned a more-in-sorrow-than-anger piece ("Hot Mess") in the current issue of the magazine, shaking his head at conservatives' failure to adopt his position on global warming. (It is an almost exact recapitulation of Al Gore's argument in TNR a few months ago, to which I also replied).
The Myopia of Anti-Washingtonitis
September 30, 2010
Noam Scheiber's profile of David Axelrod is a classic example of Washington personality journalism: It's full of intimate details and smoothly written but accepts, with little comment, its subject's opinion about what ails the administration Axelrod, the erstwhile liberal reporter from Chicago, helped put in office.
In TNR, the Working Class Has Disappeared
September 06, 2010
Once upon a time, The New Republic ran detailed, empathetic articles about the lives, ideas, and activism of American workers. "They seem easygoing, good-humored and straightforward Southerners," wrote Edmund Wilson in a 1931 essay about the coal-miners of West Virginia, "so much in the old tradition of American backwoods independence that it is almost impossible to realize they have actually been reduced to the condition of serfs." In 1966, Maury Maverick Jr. joined a mass march by Texas farmworkers that ended on Labor Day, on the steps of the state capitol building.
Inequality is a Symptom, and More Years in School May Not Be the Cure
September 05, 2010
Raghuram G. Rajan has an excellent piece up on TNR's website ("Let them Eat Credit"). Without trying to do too much violence to his argument, I would summarize it as follows: Growing income inequality in the United States has done tremendous damage to our economy. The most important cause for this inequality (supported by well-known research by Goldin and Katz) is that, although technological progress requires the labor force to have ever greater skills, our educational system has not kept pace by providing the labor force with greater sufficiently improved human capital.
Climate Change and Bad Neighbors
September 02, 2010
Jonathan Chait approvingly quotes from another blogger the argument that emitting carbon dioxide is like spraying water on your neighbor's house and says, therefore, that principled conservatives, as defenders of property rights, ought to either demand that emitters stop or else reach an agreement with their neighbors for mutually acceptable compensation. Metaphors applied to the specific ethical question of carbon emissions often employ some version of the thought experiment "polluting the neighbor's yard." In this example, it's unclear whether the bad neighbor is meant to be an emitting soc
