Yoony Eats Paris: Charcuterie, Cheese & Dining at Georges
Waking up pretty late from clubbing the night before and having had a lot to drink, we needed some nosh and more libation to get our evening going. A quick look into N's guidebook led us to Cafe de L'Industrie, which conveniently was just around the block. It was still pretty early and the place was empty and calm. Which was good because the seven of us were able to comfortably settle into a few tables in the back.
One bit of French dining that I love is starting off the meal with an aperitif. I do often start my dinners out with a glass of sparkling wine or Champagne but being presented with an aperitif menu upon arrival was nice. A drink to keep me company while I make food and wine choices. For my aperitif I ordered a glass of lillet, which I actually had once at Chez Panisse.
While sipping on the lillet I perused over the menus on the wall. I saw a "assiette de charcuterie" and I knew that was exactly what I needed. A nice plate of thinly sliced jambon, saucisson, pate and onion jam. My favorite was the saucisson, a dried-cured sausage ever so perfectly sliced into very thin pieces. The ham and pate were also delicious and I gobbled these up with the endless baskets of crusty baguette slices.
We also ordered the cheese plate which featured a blue, a fresh goat cheese, a creamy brie, and a semi-hard cow's milk cheese like gruyere. Maybe it was gruyere but I didn't ask! The likelihood of me asking a question leading to mass confusion was very high. All the cheese were delicious and each piece so fresh and in such generous proportions. The blue cheese was so creamy and had the perfect amount of pungency. It was choice pairing for my charcuterie and glass of red wine.
After our casual noshing and chatting at Cafe de L'Industrie, we headed back to our flat for a short rest for we had a dinner reseravation at Georges at the Centre Pompidou. The restaurant which sits atop the top of the museum was supposed to have a great view of Paris. Because we were not early birds we didn't get a chance to take a look at the Centre's exhibitions and instead went straight to our dinner.
The restaurant was super modern, diners were posh, and people who worked there all looked like models. It kind of felt like being back in LA. The view was great though from the top with the city being all lit up and stuff. However, we were seated right next to the entrance which didn't a view. :/ Instead, there were two sets of industrial heating vents that was blasting some hot ass air making the space really hot and stuffy. We ordered their supposedly famous mojito (although I don't know why a French restaurant would be good a making a proper mojito), and it was pretty bad. And we were shocked to find out it cost 15 euros!
And then it was time to wrestle the menu which had all sorts of cryptic names on it, like Crying Tiger which one would think was a spicy shrimp dish. But noo, it was steak marinated in cognac. We were all quite confused and bombarded N, the only one in our group fluent in French, with so many questions. Their menu was pretty international, covering French and also Southeast Asian flavors.
After much debate Boy and I ordered the King Crab in a Thai curry sauce for 39 euros. I was pretty skeptical of how the dish may turn out especially after having the very bad mojito but the dish was really good and the amount of crab was generous. I just wish I was having it at a restaurant in Thai Town for half the price. Anyhow, back to the delicious part - the crab meat was so tender and juicy and the curry sauce perfect for sopping up with a bowl of jasmine rice. And I got a few bites of E's steak dish, also an Asian twist, which came with nuoc cham for dipping. The steak was cooked so perfectly tender and juicy. The thought of it is making my mouth water now.
T ordered Escargot only to find that two of the shells were empty. After many unsuccessful attempts to pry out the elusive snails, T turned to demolition determined to get those snails out. There he is up there fighting with the escargots. This was the highlight of the dinner for me, the *smash*smash* part that is. When cracked open the shells were indeed empty and the kitchen graciously sent out four more for him.
Whew, we finally got through the very long dinner of menu translating, menu explaining, escaped escargots, and non-mojitos, we walked out into the refreshingly brisk air and got a the quick view again of beautiful Paris from atop Centre Pompidou. Then we quickly made our exit and started our night of club hopping.
Here is me tired at about 2 in the morning. The crepe cart parked right outside the club we were in line for was selling beer. How awesome is that! It was awesome until I really had to goto the bathroom. But here I am enjoying a crepe au fromage and a cold heine.

Is this the first of your posts where we see actual people?? I think it is! :)
Your line about Restaurant George "blasting some hot ass air making the space really hot and stuffy." totally cracked me up. Probably because I have a juvenile sense of humor, and kept on thinking what a restaurant would be like if it actually pumped in recirculated "hot ass air."
- yoony said...
yay real people time! haha, now you are cracking me up with your "recirculated hot ass air". it's possible because the inside of the restaurant looks like a cavity of a body, doesn't it? initially i thought teeth, molars to be exact, but maybe now intestines. lol.

"I just wish I was having it at a restaurant in Thai Town for half the price"
You could probably buy a person in Thai Town for half the price and have them make it for you.
The crab was tasty though.

A few tears were shed at Immaculata Catholic School Monday morning, but it wasn't the kids getting choked up. It was the veterans in the audience at a special Veterans Day celebration.
A few tears were shed at Immaculata Catholic School Monday morning, but it wasn't the kids getting choked up. It was the veterans in the audience at a special Veterans Day celebration.
The ceremony included speeches from four students about the heroism of veterans, music and prayers.
For Larry Berkow, the school's custodian for the last 16 years, the event was touching. When he returned home after serving as a Morse code interceptor with the U.S. Army in Vietnam, the way veterans were treated was "dismal," he said.
He said he was very happy to see Immaculata students making short speeches using words such as "honor," "courage," "bravery" and "duty" to describe the troops' service to the nation.
"Our country has evolved in honoring its vets. It's much different than when I came home from Vietnam. It's great to see the Immaculata kids showing a recognition of service and gratitude," he said. "For me, it's all about God and country. As I've grown older and closer to God, I realize more and more what a wonderful country this is. It's like Kennedy said, 'Ask not what your country can do for you' — because your country does for you every day — but 'Ask what you can do for your country.'"
Berkow said that after serving in the military, "you become more appreciate of the people you're with every day — your brothers and sisters."
Just a year ago, at age 62, Berkow decided he wanted to learn the violin. At one point Monday, he took the stage along with several other strings players and the fourth-grade chorus for the song "For the Good of the Many," directed by music teacher Angie Goodman in honor of the veterans.
U.S. Navy retired Senior Chief Arthur Buchanan found the event emotional. He served his country for more than 30 years as a flight engineer searching for Russian subs and MiGs in the Cold War, "playing cat-and-mouse games with (Libyan leader Muammar) Khadafi" and serving in Vietnam. Returning home, he had a similar experience to Berkow's.
"When we came home from Vietnam, we didn't really get much of a homecoming," he said. "When I got out of the Navy, my first two years were extremely tough. I didn't really know how to handle myself."
Buchanan said he felt comfortable on base where he knew he could trust his fellow soldiers with his life, "but I really didn't have that trust feeling" in civilian life," he recalled. "But I learned to trust others because they care."
Looking around the Immaculata gymnasium, where the children had started to disburse, he added, "People care. They all care." Buchanan said he has a special affection for Immaculata students after teaching pre-K at the school for 11 years.
He added that it's been heartening to see so many veterans welcomed home with open arms over the last few years, which has made him feel better about how people today might view his service.
"I've started wearing my Navy hat more in the past two years," he added.
Helping to put away chairs after the event ended, eighth grader Joe Maddock said he thought it was "extremely important to recognize and remember the vets, because they fought for our freedoms and the freedoms of our country."
Fellow eighth-grader Connor Leidner agreed.
"I thought (the event) was very enlightening," he said. "I learned about the different branches of the military" when Principal Carol Breedwood asked each branch to stand for recognition. "It showed how important veterans are to our country."
During the ceremony, several students took the American flag from the stage and handed it to two veterans, who held it as their fellow vets immediately saluted. They were met with a loud round of applause.
Immaculata substitute teacher Christine Breininger, who teaches sixth, seventh and eighth grades, served as a staff sergeant in the Ohio Air National Guard in the '80s while attending Ohio State to get her nursing degree. In the service, she was an optician and administered nursing services.
Events like the one at Immaculata go beyond honoring those who served, Breininger said.
"It's highly important for students to know they should respect the freedoms we have in this county and give honor to the flag," she said.

Looking for Chapman of South Melbourne circa 1870 - 1900
Hello you clever & dedicated researchers - I would appreciate any assistance in tracing my g/parents - William & Charlotte Chapman & their ancestors/descendants.
I am quite the novice in these searches & probably as expected, I have little info to start with:
William (2nd name Frederick?) Chapman sailed from England to Melb in late 1800s.
He served as a cabin-boy aboard the 'SS Marpesia'.
He later established a furniture/storage business at 256 Dorcas St Sth Melb. He married Charlotte Ford in 1890 & they had 6 daughters, Ada, Alice, Florence, Nell, Gladys & Win(born 17/12/1912)
Alice married Tom Brown, Florence married Reg Baillieu (of Sorrento), Nell married Tom Freeman,
Gladys married Roy Lunn & Win married Harold Champion (my parents) in 1940.
William died at his Dorcas St address in 1945 following a fall from his upstairs balcony.
The photo (circa 1915) shows L>R: Florence, Ada, William, Alice, Win, Charlotte, Gladys & Nell
Looking for Champions of Cornwall circa 1870s
I'm seeking any info on the three Champion brothers John, Isaac & William who were tin miners and lived in the St Ives area of Cornwall. In 1875? they all came to Melbourne aboard the 'SS Great Britain'.
I've lost track of John & Isaac. Anybody have connections ?
William married Adelaide Nankervis in 1875? & they had two children,
(Ethel)& Albert who subsequently married Helena Watson & they became my g/grandparents.
Albert & Helena passed away in 1945/1944 respectively, after producing three sons - Norman,
Harold & Reginald. Norman & Reg had no children and I am the only son of Harold.
I have two siblings, Barbara & Diane.
I have sired Paul (1969), Lisa (1972) & Greg (1975)
Paul sired William (2000) & Emily (2002),
Lisa married Jarrod Kennedy in 2000 & bore Jack (2001), Ben (2003), Charlie (2005) & Alex (2012)
Greg sired Dusty (2006) & Maple (2008)
I do have some detail of our convict origins out of the Gangell's of Tasmania - all on Helena Watson's side of the tree & going back to 1770's The picture is of the Memorial - on Constitution Dock - to
the first settlers of Tassy who arrived aboard the sailing ship 'Ocean' in 1804

2008-04-09 / Columnists
Pets, Pets, Pets . .
- The continuing search for Sensation has gone high tech. It was an absolute honor to have Dr. Dan Davis, professor of geophysics at Stony Brook University, bring his GPR (ground penetrating radar) equipment and vast expertise to the former Westminster Kennel Club (WKC) property in Babylon. He spent many hours last week collecting preliminary data by the "mystery mound" west of Southards Pond.
In 1887 members of WKC buried Sensation, their mascot and prized Pointer, under a flagpole in front of the clubhouse alongside many other Pointers that, according to an inscription on an aged photo, "cost a mint of money and were the greatest of their day". Although GPR has been a successful tool in locating historic human graves, it's highly unlikely we'll find the mass dog burial. The proposed site is 200 ft. from the pond, and bone decomposes more quickly in the presence of groundwater. This forensic file is 121 years old.
Instead, with GPR we're looking for evidence of the WKC clubhouse that likely burned down in 1923 ("Pets" online 1/31/08). Old journals mention that the clubhouse had some type of a basement- with a wine cellar "always well supplied," store rooms, and furnaces. Hopefully geological disturbance will indicate a dug out foundation.
We have no written clues about structural materials. Was the foundation supported by brick, stones, concrete, or merely locust posts? Lattice blocks a view of the foundation in the few existing photos. Size is another question. Was the basement a full imprint of the clubhouse- 40 by 60 minus a 12 ft. porch on each side, or was it under a small section of the clubhouse, comparable to some Queen Anne Victorians built in the 1880s?
GPR can be thought of as an electromagnetic "Bloodhound" sniffing around underground. It is a non-destructive method that uses radar to image the subsurface. The energy bounces off buried or disturbed features. These reflections are detected by a receiving antenna as hyperboles, breaks, slopes or blips on a computer screen, but not in the shape of a hidden object. Initial data is recorded for further analysis back at the lab.
Higher GPR frequencies do not penetrate as far as the low but give better resolution. (As a veterinary parallel, large dogs need low frequency waves to reach organs on an ultrasound.) We only have to delve downward a few meters. Our search goes back a century- not to prehistoric eras like the Pleistocene glacial moraines or mountain belts Dr. Davis usually studies. Even though radar is not acoustic, as in an orchestra, smaller instruments produce higher frequency waves. The 200 MHz GPR (the base fiddle) was too cumbersome for our wooded spot; the 500 MHz (the cello) was not in a cooperative mood, while- as Goldilocks would say- the 800 MHz (the violin) was just right.
Dr. Davis dubs his GPR set-up "the world's quietest high tech lawn mover." The unit with the transmitter and antenna resting on the bottom of the cart is connected to the laptop at eye level. (See photo.) His student lab assistants, John Zochia and Billy Freeman, mapped out measuring tape lines surrounding the mound so Dr. Davis could take readings of South Shore stratigraphy (geological layers).
First the machine had to be calibrated for the area. Cell phones and garage door openers interfere with signals; tire pressure on the cart affects the odometer. Along the foot path the GPR produced squiggles that suggest expected sedimentary matter. To the untrained, like me, the lines look marble notebook-ish. Dr. Davis measured the water table from the pond inward, and took readings from the whole area of interest including the possible flagpole and shooting house locales.
At times, he would see interesting graphics, but it was much too soon to determine their significance, if any. "You're astonished by what it gets, and astonished by what it doesn't get," said Professor Davis. More than an arm's length away and an artifact won't register. The mound is too obstructed and uneven from tossed junk to conduct a tight grid. Later John and Billy used a surveyor's scope and level to gauge topography levels so these can be factored out at the lab.
My focus is on the mound off Gwynn between the horse trail and foot path for several reasons. The spot approximates the clubhouse marker in both the 1902 and 1915 Hyde atlas, seems to match both an 1892 sketch plus a 1928 aerial map in position, shape and orientation ("Pets" 3/6/08). More intriguing, it seems to be the only disturbed clearing within the woods. Babylonian Linda Puglielli and others remember it as an odd sandpit, without debris, in the early 1950s. A glimmer of good news- Linda's description suggests to Dr. Davis that the sandpit had original sand- front glacial sand- not the beach variety brought in by the state or contractors after the fire. However, the sandpit, now mound, doesn't have natural stratigraphy because people dumped there after the clubhouse blaze. Sometime after 1952, more dirt was piled on the debris. This makes it difficult for GPR to distinguish a man made "disturbance timeline". With geological jumble to jumble, be this Westminster's birthplace and Sensation's tomb, the clash of canine archaeology and post fire littering blurs contrast.
Lab interpretation is more accurate. Results may warrant another visit- maybe a pass with the 500 MHz GPR or hand auguring to inspect soil samples. I'm so appreciative of Dr. Davis' interest. Though my quest for "the dead dog" could turn up as empty as Geraldo's Al Capone vault; the journey and help from brilliant scholars in varied fields has been enlightening.
I once wrote that Sensation's Babylon gravesite was to a dog fancier, the equivalent of learning King Tut were buried in your backyard. However, some believe a curse of the mummy began after people entered the pharaoh's mausoleum. Should we "let sleeping dogs lie"? Dr. Davis was only at the Sensation site a moment when a briar pierced his ear, steps away from a piece of crumbly concrete I sliced my finger on the week before. Unearthing a hound hex? Perhaps another wise reason the esteemed scientist may never return. Learning that Geraldo spent his teens in Babylon conjures yet one more bad omen.
Available at Babylon Town Shelter (643-9270): The Town distributed 360 free feral spay/neuter vouchers last weekend. Only a few remain. Could those who find they took more than they need return extras to the shelter so the vouchers can be re-issued? Also call the Lamar St. W. Babylon shelter if you'd like to borrow a humane trap. A refundable $60 cash deposit is required.
"Mama" a Pit/Hound in Cage 26 nursed a litter of 9 at the shelter. Quite sociable with people but Mama's maternal urges make her protective around some dogs. This photo was taken a few weeks ago when Mama was still sporting the "Romulus and Remus" look. "Mousy" in C- 9 came in when his owner entered a nursing home. He's super friendly but likes to seek security in his cat condo. He'd love to find a home before kitten season explodes.

Thats right. Those giant, tusked behemoths could one day soon walk among us again. Maybe I should start at the beginning.

In 2007, a reindeer breeder in the Yamal Peninsula of Siberia named Yuri Khudi discovered a one month old baby woolly mammoth. The baby mammoth, dubbed Lyuba, is roughly 40,000 years old and almost perfectly preserved (missing only her fur and toenails.) Lyuba either suffocated by sinking in mud or drowned in a muddy river.
Large amounts of mud were found in her mouth, trunk and trachea, suggesting that she asphyxiated. This sealed out oxygen and microbes that normally break down soft tissue and helped keep Lyuba perserved. Her body then dehydrated and shrunk to about half of her normal size. Lyuba now stands about waist high on the average person. The permafrost of Siberia then covered her and kept her in pristine condition until she was uncovered 40,000 years later.
Interested? So was National Geographic. They created a documentary about Lyula, the best-preserved baby mammoth ever discovered. Waking the Baby Mammoth premieres this Sunday, April 26, at 8 p.m. Central time, and follows Yuri's amazing find and the fascinating process of discovery as scientists work to unravel Lyula's mysteries. (Check out the video preview below)They investigate the body of the mammoth, learning how she briefly lived and theorizing how she died. The documentary includes CGI graphics that help show how Lyuba and her family might have looked as they survived the harsh conditions of Siberia during the ice age.
Some other things you might not know about wooly mammoths:
The word "mammoth" is thought to have originated from an old Vogul word for "earth."
Woolly Mammoths began dying out about 10,000 years ago, around the end of the ice age. A small population of dwarfed mammoths survived in Alaska until roughly 3,700 years ago; however, the majority died out long before then.
The first largely intact frozen mammoth carcass was discovered in 1799 in Siberia.
One of the longest mammoth tusks ever found was 16 feet long and weighed more than 200 pounds.

Mammoths are very closely related to the Asian Elephant (they share 99.4 percent of their DNA.) It is possible to take the sperm from a mammoth and impregnant the egg of an elephant, and use a female elephant to incubate. This would give birth to a mammoth/elephant hybrid.
From there, it would be possible to impregnate the hybrid to create an offspring that was even more closely related to the ancient mammoths. In a similar process, you could also take a woolly mammoth egg and clone it to create a woolly mammoth.
The woolly mammoth genome was the first genome to be reconstructed from an extinct animal It has 4.7 billion base pairs and is the largest known mammal genome.

How often are you pumping? It's all supply and demand. If you want more milk in the afternoon/evening I think you pump more. I also think you should try to let the baby latch every time and you should try to do a nurse in. Take the baby to bed and stay there for two days. In your undies and a diaper. And just let her eat.
I'm not sure when the supplementation started but not everyone leaks. It doesn't mean that your milk isn't in. I never leaked. I had an emergency c-section as well and my milk didn't come in for 5days. I never supplemented I just fed him colostrum for those 5 days. And when my milk did come in my breast were never rock hard or engorged or anything.
You are only 8 days out. So it's all totally doable. At what point did you begin to supplement and why? Were you counting diapers? At what point did you think what you made wasn't enough?

We believe that The Value Line Daily Options Survey offers the best tools in the business for the covered call investor. These tools include our unique set of covered call data, our covered call ranking system (our rank 1s have strongly outperformed the market), our daily top-200 Recommended Covered Calls, our flexible Option Screener and our Model Covered Call Portfolio. This week, we review these tools.
You create a covered call by buying shares of stock and writing calls on these shares. The premium you receive from writing the calls is your compensation for taking on the obligation to sell the stock at the strike price if the call is exercised. Depending on the strike price of the call, a covered call can be bullish (strike price above the stock price), neutral (strike price equal, or close to, the stock price) or defensive (strike price below stock price). As such, covered calls can provide varying degrees of upside potential, premium income and downside protection.
In Figure 1 below, we compare three covered calls on Priceline (PCLN) with the stock at $90.30. The out-of-the-money June $105 strike call offers a maximum profit (column heading MX) of 22%, downside protection of 4% (heading PT) and a return of 19% p.a. The at-the-money June $90 call offers a smaller maximum profit of 12%, but higher return of 45% p.a. and greater downside protection of 11%. The in-the-money June $75 call offers a maximum profit of only 5% and a per-annum return of 20%. However, this in-the-money call offers downside protection of 21%, since the stock would have to fall by the full $19.40 amount of the premium before the investor would lose money. For a description of how we make these various calculations, see "Covered Calls, Doing the Math" (Ot071126.Pdf) in our Reports Archive.
We rank covered calls based on a combination of the common stock rank and of our option model's evaluation of the call itself. A rank 1 covered call (best for covered call writing) is likely to be an overvalued call that is based on a rank 1 or rank 2 stock. Looking again at Figure 1 above, you may notice that all these calls have a covered call rank of 1 as shown in the last column (marked CC/MP), that they are all overvalued calls, and are based on a rank 1 stock (Priceline, PCLN). At present, there are about 5,500 rank 1 covered calls listed in our service.
How well have our covered call ranks worked. Year-to-date, our rank 1 covered calls are up 2.7%, while the S&P has fallen by 4.3%. Cumulatively over the past 7 ¾ years, our ranked 1 covered calls have generated an average annual return of 9.9% versus a 1.3% average return for the S&P 500 over the same period.
Our Online Covered Call Information: We provide a wealth of useful data and analysis for the covered call writer. In addition to the calculations shown in Figure 1, we also allow subscribers to view our detailed Options Profile as shown in Figure 2 below.
Additional information includes the actual breakeven price of the covered call (C'vd B/E, here $80.57), our model's estimated premium (here $6.89 versus a bid price of $10.30), the daily Theta or return on one covered call ($5.47 in this example) and the Delta of the option (58 in this example).
Our 200 Recommended Covered Calls: Twice a day, we update a list of our model's 200 best scoring rank 1 calls for covered call writing. These top-200 calls also meet the following requirements; above average liquidity, a delta of between 20 and 80 (assuring that no options are too deep in-the-money or too far out-of-the-money) and no more than five calls per underlying stock. As of April 15, 2009, our top 200 covered call list included covered calls on 75 different rank 1 common stocks, including CACI Int'l (CACI), Compass Minerals (CMP) and Pre-Paid Legal Services (PPD).
Our Option Screener: Subscribers quickly find that our online Option Screener is one of the best tools in the business for selecting covered calls. With this screener, you can set your desired criteria, including common and covered call rank, expiration, return, and downside protection. You then get a list of the best covered calls that meet these criteria. One nice feature of our screener is that it allows you to enter a list of stocks you may be tracking (or already own) to find the best covered calls on these stocks. Note: If you are using the Value Line Investment Survey's stock screener, you can automatically send a list of selected stocks to our Options Screener to find the best covered calls on them.
Our Model Covered Call Portfolio: Lastly to help investors get started with covered calls, we post a Model Portfolio of covered calls at our website. This portfolio, which we update weekly, consists of 20 different covered call positions. Since the Model Portfolio's inception in February 2007, it has beaten the S&P 500 by a wide margin. In Figure 3 below, we show a selection of some of the covered calls currently in this model portfolio.

Time to pack up the old Pontiac Sunfire and head west because according to a new study, that's where it's at. And by "it" I don't mean sunny weather, nice beaches, and perma-tans. No. By "it" I mean "sex."
Chemistry.com compiled info from over 10 million surveys and made a list of the top 10 cities in America that view sex as one of, if not the most important part of relationship. Turns out, those in the Golden State are pretty gosh darn randy. Eight of the 10 sexiest cities can be found in California.
Here are our nation's top 10 sexiest locales:
1. Venice, CA
2. Santa Monica, CA
3. Newport Beach, CA
4. West Hollywood, CA
5. West Los Angeles, CA
6. Woodland Hills, CA
7. Miami Beach, FL
8. Redondo Beach, CA
9. Hoboken, NJ
10. San Francisco, CA
What we can learn from this list is that if you live anywhere near Los Angeles, you better be up for a little bump and grind because that's what people are looking for. Can't say I'm surprised that L.A. and Miami make the top 10, but Hoboken, New Jersey? The New York City suburb is made up of recent college grads who are, apparently, insatiably horny. Ew.
I don't know if this top 10 list is of any particular importance when you're looking for a place to call home ... I mean, personally, I'd much rather live in a city that was in the top 10 for best restaurants rather than best sex lives. I'm not saying I'd rather eat than get busy (at least I think I'm not?), but surrounding myself with great food is more important to me that surrounding myself with people who place an extreme importance on sex.
Now quick. Somebody get me a sammie.
Do you value sex as one of the most important things in a relationship?

You can see an exhibit of artists Emmy Givens and Becky Givens-Bickerstaff's work free next month in downtown Houma.
You can see an exhibit of artists Emmy Givens and Becky Givens-Bickerstaff's work free next month in downtown Houma.
Their work is on display throughout July at the Terrebonne Fine Arts Guild's gallery, Downtown Art Gallery 630, 630 Belanger St., Houma.
Arts Guild members selected the mother-daughter duo as the artists of the month for June. The gallery is open from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Tuesdays through Fridays.
Emmy Givens is a professionally trained artist who has painted for more than 50 years. Her artwork is a reflective collection of that.
Givens' daughter, Becky Givens-Bickerstaff, is a self-taught artist of about two years. Emmy deals with realism, impressionism and color, while Becky is an abstract artist also dealing with color. She received the highest honor of best composition in abstract painting at Terrebonne Fine Arts Guild's Spring Art Show in March.
Emmy started her painting career by taking required watercolor education courses, but she prefers painting still life in oils and pastels. Becky prefers painting with watercolor, usually with a philosophical note attached, according to the way she feels at the time she is painting.
Even their taste in frames is different. Emmy likes wide ornamental gold, or in many cases, very small gold frames, while Becky uses mostly plain, dark frames.
The last week of summer art classes is July 8-12 at Downtown Art Gallery 630. There are a few openings remaining in the morning and afternoon classes. The morning sessions are for first- through fourth-graders, and afternoon sessions are for fifth-graders and up. Cost for one week of two-hour classes is $30. If interested in placing your child in these classes, visit Downtown Art Gallery 630. All other fees are covered by a grant. This series is an introduction to the arts, featuring painting in pastel, watercolor, acrylic and working with clay.
During Terrebonne Fine Arts Guild's installation of officers last month, Aleta Leckelt received the outstanding member of the year award As director of Downtown Art Gallery 630, she has worked diligently to advertise the art gallery to area business organizations and the general public.
George Scott, an Arts Guild member, is displaying his work throughout July at Griffin's Poboy and Grille, 1015 W. Tunnel Blvd., Houma.
Karen Bordok, another Arts Guild member, is showcasing her work at Woody's Restaurant inside Quality Hotel, 210 S. Hollywood Road, Houma.
The second "Discovering the World of Color" workshop with Laura Mitchell is scheduled for July 25-27 at Downtown Art Gallery 630. For information, call Jean Ayo at 446-3052 or email firstname.lastname@example.com.
The theme for the new members' only competition is "Abstracts." Members should bring their entries as soon as possible. Only four entries by each member are accepted. Ribbons are awarded, and the exhibit will remain on display through September.
The Arts Guild's annual Art After Dark is scheduled for Sept. 14 in downtown Houma. Applications will be available soon. If you are interested in receiving information, email email@example.com, or call 594-4215. All kinds of visual art is accepted.

Ernst Volland is a German artist, photographer, caricaturist, curator and author. Born in Miltenberg, he grew up in Wilhelmshaven and studied Fine Arts in Hamburg (1967) and Berlin (1972). It was already during this period that he wrote his first (children's) books that featured his own drawings and collages. He became known for his satirical and subversive graphics and photomontages, that were published in magazines like Pardon and exhibited in over exhibitions over Europe from 1968. Volland has been legally prosecuted for his contributions on several occasions for his work for Pardon, such as his spoofs on Jägermeister advertisements.
A collection of Volland's comics was published in 1983 under the title 'Harte Tage mit Friedhelm'. Volland edited and published the comics magazine Comix + Cartoon Reihe in 1984 and 1985. He founded his photo agency Voller Ernst with Heinz Krimmer in Berlin in 1987. Since the 1990s, Volland has devoted most of his time to the artistic exploration of historical photographs and contemporary photographic icons.

Osvaldo Golijov: La Pasión según San Marcos
In contrast to Passion composers such as Bach and Gubaidulina, the Argentinian Jewish composer Osvaldo Golijov does not assume that Jesus is a white European. Golijov's Jesus is dark-skinned, like most of the people in Bethlehem. He is also human and divine in equal quantities, expressing passionate feelings of fear, insecurity and anger above all else. In the Gospel text Jesus speaks with a clarity and directness that Golijov has striven to impart to his Pasión. It is partly for these reasons that Golijov sees the passion story from a Latin American viewpoint, with contemporary heroes such as Che Guevara in his subconscious. Jesus' words are sung in Spanish, in a musical idiom instantly comprehensible by all, notably rapid strongly-rhythmed tunes that recall Latin American popular music. Golijov makes use of Brazilian ballads for the more intimate moments of the story, whilst for the betrayal of Christ he took his inspiration from Spanish flamenco music.
Golijov employs vocal soloists and orchestra, Afro-Cuban and capoeira dancers, and the famed choir Schola Cantorum de Venezuela to tell the story of the final ordeal and death of Christ according to the Gospel of St. Mark, with additional texts from the Kaddish, the Old Testament and Spanish poetry. The Orquesta La Pasión (especially assembled for this work by Golijov together with percussionist Mikael Ringquist and pianist/percussionist Gonzalo Grau) - all conducted by Maria Guinand de Grau. The cast also stars Brazilian-born singer Luciana Souza; Jessica Rivera; Afro-Cuban dancer Reynaldo González Fernández; and Deraldo Ferreira leading a troupe of professional capoeira and berimbau dancers.
With the exception of a short passage in Latin and the culminating Kaddish in Aramaic, the text of the work is primarily in Spanish and drawn from many different translations of St. Mark's telling of the Passion, which results in an idiom that ranges from the highly literary to the vernacular, reflecting the colloquial speech of a cross-section of Latin American society.
Osvaldo Golijov (b. 1960) grew up in the Buenos Aires area of Argentina in a family of Jewish immigrants from Eastern Europe. In his youth he was surrounded, he says, by classical chamber music, klezmer, Jewish liturgical music, and Astor Piazolla's nuevo tango. He studied piano at the conservatory and composition with Gerardo Gandini. In 1983, Golijov went to Israel to study under Mark Kopytman at the Rubin Academy in Jerusalem. Three years later, he moved to America, where he studied at the University of Pennsylvania with the composer George Crumb. Since 1991, he teaches at the College of the Holy Cross in Worcester, Massachusetts.In 2000, Golijov was commissioned along with Sofia Gubaidulina, Tan Dun and Wolfgang Rihm by the International Bach Academy in Stuttgart to write a new composition for the Passion of Christ in commemoration of the 250th anniversary of the death of J.S. Bach; in one fell swoop, his La Pasión Según San Marcos brought fame for Golijov amongst a worldwide audience.

This is because as part of this series of singles, I've decided to include the extra tracks which were included on the Merck version of Sunrise Projector (renamed Past is Prologue) so that they are available individually for people who bought the original version of the album and missed out on the new material. I've posted a couple clips of the songs below, enjoy.
On a design note, this of course represents new ISO50 work. It's the first album cover I've done in a while and I really enjoyed the process this time around. I wanted to evoke the feeling of a 45 record from the heyday of singles and go with a really reserved, minimal type treatment. It's also meant to carry over the circle concept from the last single. Anyways, on to the music:
Tycho – Adrift
Tycho – From Home

Travel Tips to Bari (BRI)
A vibrant seaside market city and capital of the Apulia region, Bari is often compared to Paris, both in appearance and temperament. Travelers from all over the world are drawn to the city by its mild climate and warm sands, and board flights to Bari each day, eager to sample the local delights.
Top Bari Attractions
- Explore La Città Vecchia, a famous, extraordinary maze of winding streets that contains the capital's most storied buildings
- Kick back, relax and unwind on one of Bari's stunning beaches
- Visit Castello Svevo castle, originally built in the early 12th century and partially destroyed more than once, each subsequent rebuilding added a new layer of history to this diverse architectural tapestry
Discover Bari
Bari's layout can seem almost chaotic at first, so exploring the city on foot is a great way to find hidden gems. The Basilica di San Nicola, for example, dates back to the late 11th century, and is said to house the remains of the man now known as Santa Claus.
Bari's Pleasures
As is typical for the region, the Baresi eat dinner late and stay out even later. Local cuisine is a simple yet delectable combination of handmade pasta, fish and fresh produce. After dinner, head to one of the town's dance clubs until the sun comes up, or just relax under the stars and enjoy Bari's pleasantly cool evenings.
Plan Your Bari Holiday
Travelers looking for great flight deals to Bari can log onto flydoha.net and check the special offers section. We recommend booking your tickets to Bari as far in advance as possible to find the best prices. Look for cheap hotels in Bari's city center, where there are many great offers on accommodation near the city's main bus terminal and railway stations.

Finalists are still evaluated individually from a large pool of hundreds of candidates based across North America. Twenty major criteria underlie the scoring and process. They include, among others: the candidate company's addressable market size, its IP and patents, its financing, the proof of concept, trailing revenues and management's expertise. Each company goes through an individual interview after filling out a thorough submission, complemented by a due diligence.
2013 will be remembered as a special vintage. "The finalists list confirms the excellent choices made by entrepreneurs and VCs and the start-ups' solid roots in corporate America, embracing their innovations. By all metrics, it emphasizes the United States' entrepreneurial excellence," said Alex Vieux, publisher and CEO of Red Herring.
Finalist selections for the 2013 edition of the Red Herring 100 North America award are based upon technological innovation, management strength, market size, investor record, customer acquisition and financial health. During the several months leading up to the announcement, hundreds of companies in the fields of security, Web 2.0, software, hardware, life sciences, cloud, mobile and others completed their submissions to qualify for the award.
"Red Herring evaluates some of the most exciting, innovative companies for their Top100 North America award and Couchbase is honored to be included among them," said Bob Wiederhold, Couchbase CEO. "Thousands of companies worldwide have come to rely on Couchbase NoSQL database technology to power their interactive web and mobile applications, and their success fuels our desire to build a world-class business that serves the evolving database market."
Finalists are asked to present their winning strategies at the Red Herring North America Forum in Monterey, Calif., May 21 to 23, 2013. The Top 100 winners will be announced at a special awards ceremony the evening of May 23 at the event.

Not A Good Look: West Africa, Liberia May Be The Worst Ghetto Ever!
"Eager to see what the UN and Liberian government are actually doing, VBS meets up with a local journalist who plops us down in the center of West Point, the worst slum in Liberia. Without any modern plumbing, the people of West Point have taken to using the beach as a dump and giant outhouse. The area smells like, well, a dump and a giant outhouse, and it goes without saying that residents' health suffers a whole host of issues. Here we also happen on a young Liberian rapper, who gives us a couple verses about the scourge of Africa: AIDS. From there it's off the visit a heroin den, where we watch a twelve year-old smoke heroin and describes raping a woman at gunpoint. It gets worse." - VBS

ANDERSON, S.C. -- Shelly Catlett pitched two complete games and Coker collected 16 hits in two games on its way to a sweep of Anderson University in a Conference Carolinas doubleheader Sunday afternoon at Smethers Field.
Coker won the first game, 8-0, then took the nightcap, 5-3.
The sweep improves Coker to 32-10 overall and 17-1 in the conference. Anderson now stands at 19-19, 10-10.
In the first game, Catlett struck out seven and allowed just four hits to lead the Cobras to an 8-0 victory.
Coker scored three unearned runs in the first inning after a dropped fly ball with two outs, one of five Anderson errors, allowed the first run to score. Eunice Nettles followed the error with a two-run single to give the Cobras a 3-0 lead.
Coker added two runs in the fifth on a two-run homer over the scoreboard in center field by Kimberly Atkinson.
In the seventh, two more Anderson errors and a pair of run-scoring singles by Anna Lucus and Catlett led to three more runs for the Cobras.
Lucas and Catlett both had two hits apiece for Coker in the first game.
In the second game, Coker failed to take advantage of some wild Anderson pitching but still managed to pull out a 5-3 victory.
Coker was issued 10 walks in the second game, but none of the walks scored. The Cobras stranded 14 runners in the second game.
Coker scored single runs in the first three innings then added two more in the fourth.
Trailing 2-0, Anderson finally broke through against Catlett in the second on back-to-back doubles by Kasey King and Melissa Carmichael.
Coker had back-to-back RBI doubles in the fourth by Lucas and Miranda Klees.
Anderson got the go-ahead run to the plate in the seventh, but Catlett recorded her seventh strikeout of the second game to end it.

Kayla Williams and Lora Daniel had two hits apiece for Anderson. Daniel also drove in two of Anderson's three runs.

Microsoft has enlisted the reality-television series "Pawn Stars" in its ongoing campaign to bash rival Google.
An online video ad released Tuesday mimics the plot set up of "Pawn Stars," which features people toting precious or odd objects for appraisal at a Las Vegas pawn shop. In Microsoft's fictional telling, a woman is trying to trade in a Chromebook, a no-frills laptop powered by Google software.
"The only problem with Microsoft is they just have no taste, they have absolutely no taste."

I just have to question the wisdom of Microsoft getting its ass handed to them by an OS which has worse sales than Windows RT.
I agree, and I think RT is a good comparison point.
Hardware-wise, Chromebooks can be nice or they can be worse than first-gen netbooks. The Pixel is almost Apple-level nice, but the price is a huge turnoff. The sub-$300 Chromebooks are hit or miss, with a lot of misses.
I would definitely rather have an RT based device than a Chromebook, as the two stand today.

Golf marked its Pan Am Games debut at Angus Glen Golf Club on Thursday, July 16.
The tournament had three medal events - Women's individual, Men's individual and Mixed team - and was open to both professional and amateur players. The Pan Am Games tournament comes just one year before the return of golf to Olympic competition at the Rio Games. 1904 was the last time golf was part of the Olympic Games at which Canadian George Lyon who took home the trophy.
Angus Glen Golf Club & Conference Centre
The origins of golf are much debated. The game as we know it today originated in Scotland during the 15th century; however, a golf-like game using a stick and leather ball, but no hole, is recorded as taking place in the Netherlands in the late 13th century.
Today, the modern game is a globally recognized sport, and will be part of the Pan Am Games for the first time in 2015.
Golf is actually a very simple sport—take as few strokes as possible with the club to get the ball in the hole. However, it does require a lot of concentration, accuracy and technique. Eighteen holes are played over four days. The lowest score wins.

Grand Theft Auto IV: The Ballad of Gay Tony
|The Frenchman
On Columbus Avenue in between Garnet Street and Hematite Street, you'll find a restaurant called Viendemorte. And in front of that restaurant, you'll find a Frenchman named Arnaud. A cutscene will ensue when you approach him. This cigarette-smoking character has a lot to say on a lot of issues, but in general, he seems pretty good natured. After he and Luis strike up a bizarre conversation for a few minutes, Arnaud will rather bluntly ask Luis if he has a car. After all, he needs a ride to some random appointment.
Arnaud's appointment will bring you to the southern end of Algonquin, where a massage parlor sits on Amsterdam Avenue. The GPS on your HUD will bring you there quickly enough. Enjoy the rather random conversation Arnaud and Luis have en route, and when you arrive at your destination, simply pull in front of the massage parlor to let Arnaud out. Now that was a random encounter, and a brief one at that.

Not sure if both of these pics are in the gallery already but oh well.
In the half page article they ask Dean why he would remake a movie that wasn't a hit. He says making a remake of a hit movie is a horrible thing to do. He wants to remake a movie that is better then the original. They said Dean spent a whole month at Jims house so they could work on the script. They only kept 1 of the original scenes. The scene when their lawn gets repossed(Sp?) but in the new movie Dick gets his lawn back by stealing huge chunks of every persons lawn in the nieghborhood. They thought about keeping the scene when Jane is on the toilet wiping her butt but Tea said it has been done so many times so they left it out.
