Bindi meets Chandler's parents
Bindi's boyfriend Chandler Powell shared an adorable family picture with Wildlife Warrior and his parents.
The picture shows a smiling Bindi at her first hockey game.
Captioning the image, Chandler, 19, wrote: 'Took @bindisueirwin to her very first hockey game last night! Had so much fun with the family!'
The couple have been dating for almost two years.
Speaking to ET earlier this year Bindi said Chandler could be the one.
Seeing him in his family's khaki uniform, she said, 'It was kind of one of those moments that was a real defining moment for me, because you know, it's only the people who are the closest to us that get their khakis.'

Who are they?
Defiantly unfashionable, romantic, widescreen, epic-rock four-piece from Otley in Yorkshire, home of Emmerdale Farm.
Where's the name from?
The hill that looms over the village. "It creates an image of being stood on the edge of a ridge looking out," says improbably named singer Coyle Girelli.
How did they get here?
The members have been knocking around the Leeds scene with each other since their days at grammar school, with bands such as Paintbox, Orca and electro combo Your Vegas. Girelli's fantastic multi-octave voice led to collaborations with techno DJs David Guetta and Serge Devant and a stint in New York writing club bangers and pop tunes for other artists. But rock is where their heart is and the friends convened in 2010 to record a self-financed album, Borderland. Debut single Champions came out on hip indie label Fierce Panda, leading to arena shows with White Lies and a big deal with Warner. They were one of Britain's showcase bands at the SXSW music festival in Austin in March.
What do they sound like?
As if U2, the Killers, Keane, Snow Patrol and Coldplay decided to write love songs for a scruffy Roy Orbison. It's old-fashioned, OTT and big enough to crush all resistance.
Where do they go now?
First major label single, Drive, is released May 14. Album Borderland follows in August. There are UK dates in May before the Chevin tour Ireland with Franz Ferdinand.

I've been really into healthy eating these days and have been making changes toward a more healthy lifestyle! Every day I make it a point to eat breakfast, but make it one that is super healthy so that I have lots of energy to start my day. Here is my acai berry smoothie bowl! First, you're going to blend your acai berry smoothie packs, frozen mangos, fresh raspberries, almond milk, and a bit of light agave nectar. Once you're ingredients are all blended put them into a bowl and it is time to top! My favorite toppings (which I used today) are sliced bananas, granola, and coconut flakes! Once your smoothie bowl is topped, it is time to eat! Bon appetit!
- 2 acai berry smoothie packs
- 1 1/2 cups of frozen mangos
- 1 cup of fresh raspberries
- 2 cups of almond milk
- 1 tablespoon of light agave nectar
- 1/2 of 1 banana
- 1/2 cup of granola

In [30]: (modf(modf(d)[0]*100)[0])/decimal.Decimal('.6') Out[30]: Decimal('0.0') So your problem with decimal isn't that it lacks the precision you're seeking - you're simply converting it to a float /before/ performing the calculations, which makes turning it into a decimal in the first place pretty much useless.

Entertaining cartoon, published Australia Day last year in one of the major Australian Newspapers.
Posted for the benefit of "Anonymous", the pussy who commented on the Australia Day entry below.
Entertaining read (for a non-Aussie) of an Aussie beating up on Australia on Australia day in The Age Today.
Here are some edited excerpts for your Aussie bashing pleasure:
Australia's preoccupation with simplistic national symbols borders on being infantile. The nation's young country status revisited annually on Australia Day in mantras of achievement – chanted by ruddy-faced civic leaders in community breakfasts – is anachronistic and increasingly irrelevant.Australia makes much of its Akubra-wearing mateship tradition. It is touted every year that there is something quintessentially Australian about being a mate. But cobbers in Australia are no different from American, English, German or just about any other nationality where companionship is configured through mutual dependence.Such easily defined national symbols remind us of what we like to believe our antecedents to be and what we like about ourselves. The truth is we are some far distance from the lucky country.Australia is increasingly and worryingly more bellicose and jingoistic about expressing its national identity. This is not just in Aussie green and gold shirts at sporting events. The Cronulla riots reflected much about national contemporary identity that Australia actively encourages.Where is the difference between a boozed-up sunburnt ocker who drapes himself in an Australian flag at Cronulla and wistful backpackers similarly attired at Anzac Cove?… the xenophobia that has typified much of Australian history and was the dark undercurrent at Cronulla, is now part, for a significant number of Australians, of what it means to be Australian. This is borne out in the acceptance of mandatory detention and in suspicion displacing charity towards asylum seekers.…Back then [uberkiwi: the 50's], there were no wire fences in the desert keeping new arrivals from the rest of Australian society. Never did I think I would have to explain to my young son why people were locked up in camps. Never did I think I'd feel ashamed as an Australian when there was so little that apparently could be done to save Nguyen Tuong Van. Or so utterly shamed that Australia remains for many indigenous people a Third World country where children are born into unspeakable disadvantage.The barbecues and festivities on Australia Day need to be put in perspective. Recognising identity is one thing. Rock concerts, parades and legions of flag-wearing, stubby-guzzling mates are the distillation of a culture that cringes from looking beyond irrelevant symbols of itself.
Emails presented to the Cole corruption inquiry yesterday revealed a "culture" within the board that resulted in an agreement to pay kickbacks – and debate among employees about how to hide them from the UN – in June 1999.
The big news is that the emails were exchanged while the wheat board was a statutory authority, controlled by the Government!
It was privatised the month after the emails, becoming AWB as it listed on the Australian Stock Exchange.
Opposition trade spokesman Kevin Rudd said that in light of the new evidence, the Cole inquiry's terms of reference should be expanded to incorporate the role of the Howard Government.
"Planning appears to have commenced for corrupt practices when AWB was a statutory authority, when it was still in the direct hands of the Howard Government," Mr Rudd said.
"This takes the matter to a new plane altogether and the role of the Government must be examined. Commissioner Cole should be allowed to make findings in relation to government, as well as employees of AWB."
Under the terms of reference set by the Government, the inquiry is confined to examining the role of AWB and two other Australian companies in the payment of kickbacks to Saddam's regime under the oil-for-food program.
The Howard Government has previously insisted that AWB's problems were its own, because it was a publicly listed company with no links to the Government.
Foreign Minister Alexander Downer was in his role at the time of the AWB privatisation.
Mr Downer is on leave and could not be contacted.
Mr Rudd accused Mr Downer of hiding from the AWB scandal: "My challenge
to Mr Downer is: Alex, Alex, come out, come out from wherever you are.
The Australian people would liketo listen to what you've got to say."
Mark Vaile, now Nationals leader and Deputy Prime Minister, replaced Tim Fischer as trade minister in July 1999.
Mr Vaile refused to comment on the revelation. His spokesman said: "The minister will not be giving a running commentary on evidence presented to the Cole inquiry. He will wait until the inquiry is complete."
Edited excerpts from The Australian: AWB plotted bribes before float Caroline Overington
January 26, 2006
The show then covered the troop deployment there from 2000 or so to now, and how the forces feel that they are belatedly repaying a debt of honour.
Anyway, the next day the UN report on the Indonesian invasian and subsequent genocide is released.
Here's a bit from an article in The Age:
The United Nations has released a report, which documents torture, rape, slavery and starvation leading to the unnatural demise of as many as 180,000 civilians (from a pre-invasion population of 628,000), should shame those ministers, journalists, diplomats and academics who played down or ignored consistent human rights abuses in the former Portuguese colony � incredibly described as "aberrant acts" by former foreign minister Gareth Evans.
This group, known as the Jakarta lobby, not only sought to protect the reputation of the Soeharto dictatorship at every opportunity. They went out of their way to oppose East Timor's claim for independence (a "lost cause" � former diplomat Richard Woolcott) and accused critics of the regime in Jakarta of not only exaggerating the scale of the repression, but of being "racist" and "anti-Indonesian" (Woolcott).
Their influence on official policy has been considerable. Rather than indict those responsible for crimes that would have made Slobodan Milosovic and Saddam Hussein blush, governments from Whitlam to Howard ignored regular reports of atrocities that the Catholic Church believes constituted the greatest slaughter relative to a population since the Holocaust. Why?
When "stability", oil and gas reserves and "good relations" with Jakarta were (mistakenly) thought to be at stake, the state terrorism of the Indonesian military was uncomfortable for Canberra but acceptable, providing most of it could be concealed from the Australian public. When that proved impossible, as in the case of the 1991 Dili massacre, damage control designed to protect the bilateral relationship rather than humanitarian concern was the order of the day. The Howard Government's approach to Islamist terror could scarcely be a greater contrast in behaviour.
The double standard continues today. While NATO spends millions trying to track down Radovan Karadzic and Ratko Mladic, Soeharto remains comfortably retired in the suburbs of Jakarta, with neither Canberra nor Washington showing any interest in bringing him to account for his considerably more serious crimes" (continues)
From Bloody history of East Timor and our part in it – Opinion – theage.com.au
Foreign Minister Alexander Downer, who was unavailable for comment
last night, said at the time AusAID would deliver the wheat to Iraqis
as part of a post-war humanitarian program. The price included $38
million for the wheat, and $45 million in "handling and distribution
The cost of the wheat was ultimately picked up by the UN's
World Food Program, which feeds people in crisis. Its officials were
also unaware the price was inflated.
The revelation that AWB was prepared to defraud the taxpayer
and an international aid program may be the final straw for the Howard
Government, which has previously defended AWB as it battles to save its
The Cole inquiry in Sydney is investigating allegations AWB
paid $290 million in illegal kickbacks to Saddam to secure wheat
contracts worth billions of dollars under the UN's oil-for-food program
before the Iraq war.
AWB has insisted it thought the payments were for transport
costs, although a senior executive yesterday admitted at the inquiry
that the company knew it was breaching UN sanctions by inflating the
price of wheat.
BEYOND any shadow of a doubt, the ugliest phrase to enter the English language in 2005 was "extraordinary rendition". To those of us who love words, this phrase's brutalisation of meaning is an infallible signal of its intent to deceive.
"Extraordinary" is an ordinary enough adjective, but its sense is being stretched here to include more sinister meanings that your dictionary will not provide: "secret", "ruthless" and "extralegal".
As for "rendition", the English language permits four meanings: a performance, a translation, a surrender � this meaning is now considered archaic � or an "act of rendering", which leads us to the verb "to render", among whose 17 possible meanings you will not find "to kidnap and covertly deliver an individual or individuals for interrogation to an undisclosed address in an unspecified country where torture is permitted".
Language, too, has laws, and those laws tell us that this new American usage is improper � a crime against the word. Every so often the habitual Newspeak of politics throws up a term whose calculated blandness makes us shiver with fear � yes, and loathing.
"Clean words can mask dirty deeds," New York Times columnist William Safire wrote in 1993, in response to the arrival of another such phrase, "ethnic cleansing". "Final solution" is a further, even more horrible locution of this Orwellian, double-plus-ungood type. "Mortality response", a euphemism for death by killing that I first heard during the Vietnam War, is another. This is not a pedigree of which any newborn usage should be proud.
People use such phrases to avoid using others whose meaning would be problematically over-apparent. "Ethnic cleansing" and "final solution" were ways of avoiding the word "genocide", and to say "extraordinary rendition" is to reveal one's squeamishness about saying "the export of torture". However, as Cecily remarks in Oscar Wilde's The Importance of Being Earnest, "When I see a spade, I call it a spade," and what we have here is not simply a spade, it's a shovel � and it's shovelling a good deal of ordure.
Now that Senator John McCain has forced on a reluctant White House his amendment putting the internationally accepted description of torture � "cruel, inhuman or degrading punishment" � into American law, in spite of Vice-President Dick Cheney's energetic attempts to defeat it, the growing belief that the Bush Administration could be trying to get around the McCain amendment by the "rendition" of people adjudged torture-worthy to less delicately inclined countries merits closer scrutiny.
We are beginning to hear the names and stories of men seized and transported in this fashion: Maher Arar, a Canadian-Syrian, was captured by the CIA on his way to the United States and taken via Jordan to Syria where, according to his lawyer, he was "brutally physically tortured". Khaled el-Masri, a German citizen of Kuwaiti-Lebanese origin, was kidnapped in Macedonia and taken for interrogation to Afghanistan, he says, where he was repeatedly beaten. Syrian-born Mohammed Haydar Zammar says that he was grabbed in Morocco and then spent four years in a Syrian dungeon.
Lawsuits are under way. The lawyers for the plaintiffs suggest that their clients were only a few of the victims, that in Afghanistan, Egypt, Syria and perhaps elsewhere the larger pattern of the extraordinary rendition project is yet to be uncovered. Inquiries are under way in Canada, Germany, Italy and Switzerland. The CIA's own internal inquiry admits to "under 10" such cases, which to many ears sounds like another bit of double-talk. Tools are created to be used, and it seems improbable, to say the least, that so politically risky and morally dubious a system would be set up and then barely employed.
The US authorities have been taking a characteristically robust line on this issue. On her recent European trip, Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice more or less told European governments to back off the issue � which they duly, and tamely, did, claiming to have been satisfied by her assurances. Soon afterward, at the end of December, the German Government ordered the closing of an Islamic centre near Munich after finding documents encouraging suicide attacks in Iraq. This is a club which, we are told, Khaled al-Masri often visited before being extraordinarily rendered to Afghanistan. "Aha!" we are encouraged to think. "Obvious bad guy! Render his sorry butt anywhere you like!"
What's wrong with this kind of thinking is that, as Isabel Hilton of The Guardian wrote last July: "The delusion that officeholders know better than the law is an occupational hazard of the powerful and one to which those of an imperial cast of mind are especially prone � When disappearance became state practice across Latin America in the '70s it aroused revulsion in democratic countries, where it is a fundamental tenet of legitimate government that no state actor may detain � or kill � another human being without having to answer to the law."
In other words, the question isn't whether or not a given individual is "good" or "bad". The question is whether or not we are � whether or not our governments have dragged us into immorality by discarding due process of law, which is generally accorded to be second only to individual rights as the most important pillar of a free society.
The White House, however, plainly believes that it has public opinion behind it in this and other contentious matters, such as secret wiretapping. Cheney recently told reporters: "When the American people look at this, they will understand and appreciate what we're doing and why we're doing it."
He may be right for the moment, though the controversy shows no signs of dying down. It remains to be seen how long the American people are prepared to go on accepting that the end justifies practically any means Cheney cares to employ.
In the beginning is the word. Where one begins by corrupting language, worse corruptions swiftly follow. Sitting as the Supreme Court to rule on torture in December 2005, Britain's law lords spoke to the world in words that were simple and clear. "The torturer is abhorred not because the information he produces may be unreliable," Lord Rodger of Earlsferry said, "but because of the barbaric means he uses to extract it."
"Torture is an unqualified evil," Lord Brown of Eaton-under-Heywood added. "It can never be justified. Rather, it must always be punished."
The dreadful probability is that the United States' outsourcing of torture will allow it to escape punishment. It will not allow it to escape moral obloquy.
Salman Rushdie is the award-winning author of numerous books, including Midnight's Children and The Satanic Verses.
From the News Limited network:
With menacing actions and words, Japan yesterday defied world anger over its whale killing.
A Jap harpooner allegedly rammed Greenpeace activists in the Antarctic, and the country's whaling industry lashed out at opposition to its bloody trade.
In a rare public statement, Japan Whaling Association president Keiichi Nakajima declared that killing the giant mammals was the only effective way to study them.
Mr Nakajima also called on countries like Australia to tolerate the culls out of respect for 'cultural diversity'.
'There are enough whales for both those who want to eat them and those who want to watch them,' he said.
Mr Nakajima said Australia's problem with eating whale meat sprang from a difference between Eastern and Western thinking. "

Tokyo 2012 Day 5 - Asakusa & Harajuku
Straying off the updates of the Auto Salon and back onto our Tokyo Holiday. We started off slightly later on day 5. After getting some rest from all that walking around at the Auto Salon the day before, we headed off to Asakusa for a nice day of sightseeing.
As it was a saturday (good weather too!), there were plenty of crowds and locals visiting the Asakusa Sensoji temple. We started off walking around Nakamise with all it's touristy shops.
Some food too.
Spotted a toy Dachshund.
BBQ beef was gooooood, especially during the cold weather.
Talk to the hannnnd!
You "donate" some yens, shake a cylinder and out comes a number to collect a piece of paper with your fortune.
You gets your fortunes from these boxes.
I had a lousy one.
You can go get yourself smoked for some good fortune...
...or alternatively, buy some charms.
There was a monkey show going on, but we left after a while as the monkey didn't look like he was having much fun (he actually looked quite scared at some points). Can't imagine what goes on during training.
I tried to take some arty-farty B&W shots.
There was another temple at the back with plenty of foxes.
We had some snacks after this and made our way to Harajuku station.
Onward to the Meiji Shrine.
There was some ice sculpture exhibit going on along the walkway to the shrine. It was pretty cool (hur hur hur).
Some JDM chick got in the way of my shot.
I liked this one.
Inside the Meiji shrine i tried more arty shots...
...while Jamie bought charms for people back home.
Eating ice cream during winter is always fun. They don't melt. I had "Black vanilla" flavour, taste exactly like regular vanilla.
We left the shrine just as it was about to close and went for a walk down Takeshita Dori.
AKB store, these AKB chicks are everywhere!
As it got dark, i stopped taking pictures and since the shops here closed rather early, we snooped into a ramen joint called Kyushu Jangara for dinner. It was not bad.

Tokyo Auto Salon 2012 - The Italians
There were no shortage of sexy Italian metal in the halls of the Auto Salon. Pimped up Lamborghinis, petite Fiat500s and a couple of Ferraris. Let's start with some old school flavour with a black Testarossa flanked by 2 lovely laides, sitting at Goodyear's booth, next to the lovely RUF featured in a previous post.
HRE had a California with 2 different sets of wheels on each side.
Pirelli had a pretty stock looking Ferrari FF, it was my first time seeing the FF in the flesh and being a fan of the Shooting Brake style, i loved it.
Need new wheels for your Prancing Horse? How about some Asantis? I liked the detailing on the edge of the rim.
Hyper Forged wheels had Ferrari's stablemate, Maserati, on some rather big kicks to fill up the entire wheelarch.
Not forgetting Ferrari's parent company, there were some Fiats on display as well. This yellow 500 from Tipo looked particularly sweet.
Abarth had a 500 and Punto.
You cannot feature Italian cars and miss out on the misfits from Lamborghini and there were plenty of Lambos to savour at the event. One of the first cars we saw when we entered the halls was this blinging Diablo, even the rear vents were shiny.
But for some real bling, look no further then this Murcielago from VITT-Performance.
The detailing of this car is just awesome. Those swarovskis were all individually applied.
The wheels got airbrushed and even the tyres had sparkly pink paint used as highlights.
Talking about bling, have you ever seen a gold-chrome Lamborghini in real life? It's pretty crazy.
This golden boy is from Liberty Walk, their booth was pretty much Lamborghini-lovers heaven.
The one that caught my attention the most was this military spec LP660. I love how they did all the decals with a slight fade to replicate wear.
Even the interior of this mean green machine got the full camo treatment.
And for those grocery runs down the local store, you can have this similarly themed Suzuki Every van.
When booth space just isn't enough for the Liberty Walk boys, they stack em up!
There were even miniature Liberty Walk cars on display, although i shudder to think of how much those little babies would cost.
Too many Murcielagos? How about the latest Aventador sitting on Hyper Forged wheels as well.
Boom Craft also had a Murci on display but i think the car's not getting the most attention at the moment.

It is with great pleasure we advise all ITF members that all charges laid against Master Rai in the courts in Canada have been withdrawn. It is very important that we remember that everyone is innocent until proven guilty in the court of law. In this case, the prosecution saw no prospect of conviction and withdrew all the charges against Master Rai. The ITF supported Master Rai from the beginning and at the end justice prevailed. Master Rai will be reinstated his positions which he had stepped down from earlier in the year.

Apricots by the Sea
I love Campbeltown whiskies, by that I mean everything of the Springbank range, not Glen Scotia. But it took me quite some time to eventually try the sister distillery of Springbank from the same owners. I'll admit I've been missing out.
I'm still often surprised to hear people asking me where the "Kilkerran" distillery is situated, or bluntly stating that Kilkerran is just another range of the Springbank distillery along Hazelburn and Longrow.
However Glengyle is the name of the beast, and it is an independent distillery by in its own right.
The distillery has some historic roots as it was rebuild on the grounds of an older Cambeltown distillery. In the hollow shell of what once was a mighty Glengyle distillery, a new chapter was written in the early 2000's . Just like with the Wolfburn or Annandale distillery not much publicity was given at the time. And few people knew about its existence when after 90 years of silence the spirit started running again through its stills. And by its stills, I actually mean the pot stills of the old Ben Wyvis distillery, Invergordon's Ladyburn if you will. Not much is known of Ben Wyvis, few have been privileged to taste one of its independent bottlings, but the general consensus is that the closure of Ben Wyvis should not be considered a tragic loss for the industry.
Glengyle is thus an inspiring distillery, incorporating both new and old elements from the industry, bringing back life to the former whisky capital of the world. "A prophet emerged from the desert to bring forth the good news to people, that they were at the dawn of the Whisky Renaissance."
Lastly, why is it called Kilkerran and not Glengyle? Well the name Glengyle is currently owned by Glen Catrine, the corporation behind Loch Lomond and Glen Scotia.
Every year, a new "Work in Progress" edition is being released, for as long a they are not entirely satisfied with the end product. As always they are NAS with a distinction is made between the bourbon and sherry matured edition.
Nose: tones of apricots, honey, sunflower oil, with some underlying briny soft coastal notes.
Palate: light body and sharp (unexpected) on the palate, with an oily texture, almonds, honey, a touch of green apples, and a mix of soft fruits with mils peppery notes.
Finish: medium long and drying, sugared flavours with an endnote of dried prunes
The Verdict
|Not all what I expected, the palate came as a bit of a shock. After the soft nose, it cuts like a knife, clean and pure . Didn't like it at the first sip, adored it at the last. Takes some getting used, so probably not for beginners, but to the seasoned malty mad heads under us I say, give it a go.

This week's Featured Poem is a selection from D.H. Lawrence, a poem that appears to denote a journey of a mystical nature. Considered to be about transcedence, art and creativity – the present moment like 'a fine wind' that passes through, leading to the next line in the creative process – Lawrence takes us throughout the poem from uncertainty and grasping exploration onto at least something a little more concrete, in its references to 'an exquisite chisel' and 'a wedge-blade inserted', some of the artistic tools which can translate 'the wonder that bubbles into my soul' to a tangibility.
With the passing of David Bowie – undoubtedly one of the most creative artists of our time – the poem seems to take on another kind of wonder, too.
Song of a Man Who has Come Through
Not I, not I, but the wind that blows through me!
A fine wind is blowing the new direction of Time.
If only I let it bear me, carry me, if only it carry me!
If only I am sensitive, subtle, oh, delicate, a winged gift!
If only, most lovely of all, I yield myself and am borrowed
By the fine, fine wind that takes its course though the chaos of the world
Like a fine, an exquisite chisel, a wedge-blade inserted;
If only I am keen and hard like the sheer tip of a wedge
Driven by invisible blows,
The rock will split, we shall come at the wonder, we shall find the Hesperides.
Oh, for the wonder that bubbles into my soul,
I would be a good fountain, a good well-head,
Would blur no whisper, spoil no expression.
What is the knocking?
What is the knocking at the door in the night?
It is somebody wants to do us harm.
No, no, it is the three strange angels.
Admit them, admit them.
D.H. Lawrence

Whether you are buying your first board or your tenth board researching the latest snowboard technology is a constant requirement as new ideas are developed improving the ride and changing the way we snowboard.
There are a few important questions you need to ask yourself when setting out to make a big purchase like a snowboard. Whilst these aren't the only factors, they're a good start to help you choose the right board for your next snow trip.
Snowboard size is no exact science, it's about how comfortable you are on your board. When renting snowboards technicians will look for something to fit in-between your chin and your nose. A shorter board will be easier to manoeuvre however might not give you the speed or power looking for.
Camber is the bend or pre-flex a snowboard is built with.
Traditionally snowboards were manufactured with positive camber, this means the board core materials have an arc and the middle of the board is raised from the ground but the tip and tail are touching the ground.
This profile means that the board is loaded with extra pop and makes a precise turn. This is a sought after shape for those looking for speed and carving, however, might not be as forgiving when learning to ride as edges tend to catch a little more.
Flat Camber or Zero Camberbridges the gap between positive and reverse camber. The shape still provides the ease of manoeuvrability like a rocker board but you have the bonus edge control.
Used regularly by park riders as the flat surface on rails can be forgiving. Flat camber is not for everyone, people who have traditionally ridden camber boards may fee that the board has a damp feeling under foot
Those who ride a Zero Camber board tend to swear by them so if you are in the market for something middle ground be sure to test a Zero camber snowboard at a demo day to understand the feel.
Reverse / Rocker Camber profiles
Rocker cambers tend to provide a looser, surfy feel. Reverse cambers are a great option for people looking to learn as they aim to raise contact points off the ground which makes catching an edge less likely.
Reverse camber boards are already pre flexed ready to turn which is more enjoyable for some skiers and snowboarders. Reverse camber is also heavily featured in powder boards to help the board float and

When I make a quick spaghetti (which is mostly all the time), I use the best and most authentic Cajun sauce I've ever found in a jar! It's my secret weapon (shhh!) by Cajun Power and I found it last year at Rouses, but you can also get it from their website here. It has that wonderful dark reddish-brown color that only true "down da bayou" Cajuns can make! My husband can make a spaghetti sauce like that (his is actually darker), good thing 'cause I don't know how!
I've cooked it with chicken and ground meat, but tonight I made a weenie s'ghetti - what's better than a good ol' quick, cheap and delicious weenie s'ghetti?!

NOTE: For the record, I have known John LaBruzzo for easily 10+ years. I have campaigned for him and contributed to his prior campaigns. I've known Conrad Appel for some time as well, although I have never campaigned for him or contributed to him. I've also known Polly Thomas for many years and campaigned for her and contributed to her in the past. So, now you know.
Ok, now that the obligatory disclosures are out of the way, I have some explaining to do. I know it's been awhile since my last post. Needed a little break and wanted to stop the rumors that I would be running for something this October (although I can't believe y'all let Cynthia Sheng get appointed to Council-At-Large without an opponent – shame on you…).
Yeah, it seems like every time I criticize someone, some folks crawl out from under their rocks and claim that I'm attacking them personally because I want their job. Now, some of you are going to believe what you want to believe but, trust me, NOTHING, NOTHING could be further from the truth.
I am critical of elected officials, and folks not elected as well, when I think they are wrong on an issue or, in the case of Kenner Mayor Mike Yenni, wrong on MOST issues.
But more about the fake Conservative Republican Family Values Name Changer-In-Chief later, today we are talking about John LaBruzzo.
Many political insiders were surprised when the former State Rep decided against seeking the JP Council seat that he had announced for and instead qualified for the 9th District Senate seat held by incumbent Conrad Appel.
Appel won a runoff against Polly Thomas, who also qualified for the Senate seat, in 2008 to serve the remainder of now Congressman Steve Scalise's term. Appel was re-elected in 2011 without opposition.
To be fair, I think Conrad Appel is a very nice man with a nice family. He and his wife have always been very cordial to me. When I've had a question about an issue or a position, Conrad has always returned my call or gone on the radio with me, even when he knew I was on the opposite side. You have to respect that – most elected officials duck and cover when their assistants tell them I'm on the phone or dodge my emails.
Unfortunately, I haven't contacted Senator Appel very much in the 7 years that he's been in the State Senate and therein lies the issue. If I'm calling legislators in Cenla more than I'm calling a Jefferson Parish State Senator, especially a Republican (and, no, John Alario is as much a Republican as Mike Yenni – sorry for bringing up the Fake Conservative Republican Family Values Name Changer-In-Chief again, but it's true and I just can't stop myself from continuing to point out hypocrisy) that's a problem.
The fact is, in 7 years, aside from being Pro-Business and quiet as a mouse as Louisiana's budget has increased (definitely not a Conservative trait - by the way, have I mentioned lately how Kenner's budget has increased and government grown despite the people of Kenner not approving Yenni's plan to double property taxes? ) and being on the wrong side of Common Core, I can't point to anything substantive that Appel has done.
Perhaps that's not a fair commentary. Maybe it's a good thing that we don't hear more from our state legislators. Maybe Senator Appel went to Baton Rouge in 2008 and said, "You know, I agree with that Walt Bennetti guy that we already have too many damn laws so I'm not going to propose any new ones."
Nah, I don't think he said that either.And he has proposed bills and gotten them passed. Can't tell you what they accomplished though.
On the flip side however, you know John LaBruzzo has put his name on several controversial issues. Now, whether that was by design to make a name for himself or whether he actually believes his ideas are best for Louisiana, is not for me to say.
But, let's look at a couple instances where LaBruzzo and Appel are on opposite sides:
Should people receiving government assistance who aren't working be drug tested? Yeah, I think so. They would be drug tested if they were employed.
Should there be harsher criminal penalties for violent offenders? No debate from me.
Should the Federal and State Governments get out of the education business and anything related to
Common Core be repealed? Absolutely.
Those three issues are state issues and they are John LaBruzzo's issues. He couldn't tackle any of those if he was on the Jefferson Parish Council.
So, was I surprised when LaBruzzo qualified to run for State Senate against a Republican who isn't really Conservative and is on the wrong side of a major issue like Common Core? Not at all, in fact, I was scratching my head when LaBruzzo said he was running for Parish Council.
And, to be honest, when it comes to John LaBruzzo, not much could surprise me.
Running against an incumbent like Appel and a very well-known fellow Republican like Polly Thomas is no easy task. Thomas was barely defeated by Appel in 2008 and has been active in the Republican Party and community groups since then.
But, if anyone is up for a fight it is John LaBruzzo and I wouldn't bet against him.
Buckle up residents of Senate District 9 – it's going to be an interesting 6 weeks.

Sad, I second on Dan's answer for #4 question. It's not that we opposite it. It's faith that we don't have. It's not first time for people to keep talk with no action. It's called bikeshed. The share/gnome/ -> share/ project was very successful, because I have pushed it hard. I did 90 committed in MC CVS per day about two or three times and did a lot of work on hundreds of port. Whomever start to talk will have to be expect to do a lot of works to get success. I suggest you to get start to setup a team, setup ports development somewhere, and make sure you have changes available. Then we will starting to have a faith on this project.

In this episode, we take on the equality myth in historical, literary, and contemporary contexts. Later in the program, we'll speak to a mathematician on the subject of "equality in math" and how it may or may not extend to human equality. Next, the Shame Chamber will bring us a defendant from the Great White North and its effects on children. And, then, we'll conclude with a parable from a certain 19th century German philosopher who certainly had much to say on the matter.

The egg is nature's perfect package. It has, during the span of history, represented mystery, magic, medicine, food and omen. The egg represents the rebirth of the earth. The long, hard winter is over; the earth burst forth and is reborn just as the egg miraculously burst forth with life. The egg, therefore, is believed to have special powers. It was buried under the foundations of buildings to ward off evil; pregnant young Roman women carried an egg on their persons to foretell the sex of their unborn children; French brides stepped upon an egg before crossing the threshold of their new homes. It is the universal symbol of Spring celebrations throughout the world and has been dyed, painted, adorned and embellished in the celebration of its special symbolism. To many Pagans, the golden yolk represents the Sun God, while its white shell is seen as the White Goddess and the egg as a whole represents rebirth. Traditionally, the eggs were marked with brilliant colors along with various types of bands drawn upon them which represented the cycles of life, death, and rebirth. Other symbols representing the triple Goddess, the Sun, and such shapes as triangles, squares, circles, and dots can usually be found. The drawing of special signs upon a symbolic object as with the eggs is a form of magick, as is done when creating a talisman or amulet. Long before the Easter bunny, Medieval cooks dyed eggs with natural ingredients and gave them as gifts to celebrate the season. Try dyeing with traditional natural colors, a refreshing alternative to the jarringly bright colors of commercial dyes.
Natural Dyes The rich colors of natural dyes can be coaxed from the most unassuming items in your vegetable bin or spice rack. Humble ingredients--such as red cabbage, onion skins, paprika and coffee--can produce understatedly elegant and often unexpected colors when used as dyeing materials. Dyes Here are some suggestions to get you started with natural dyes. This amount of dye will color approximately six eggs. The only limitations on experimentation are the contents of your refrigerator, pantry and even your backyard--remember to use edible plants! As with any eggs, be sure to keep dyed eggs refrigerated and don't eat eggs that have been at room temperature for more than two hours. Orange Paprika--four tablespoons per quart of water Blue Surprisingly, red cabbage--about four cups, shredded, per quart of water Red Pomegranate juice in place of water or four cups red onion skins Pink Cranberry juice in place of water or four cups shredded beets per quart of water Green Spinach (fresh or frozen), four cups per quart of water Yellow Carrots, white grape juice, turmeric, fenugreek Red-Violet purple grape juice, red rasberries Ocher Onion skins--four cups of the dry outer skins Mocha Use one quart of strongly brewed coffee in place of water How To There are two ways to color eggs with natural dyes: boiling and cold dipping. Boiling allows dyes to penetrate the eggshell and results in darker, more even colors. The cold-dip method can be better if you want to eat the eggs and safer when children are helping out. Boil Method: Place 6-8 eggs in a single layer in a large pot and add enough water to cover eggs by one inch. Add some white vinegar (2 tablespoons per quart of water). Add dye ingredients (up to 4 cups vegetable solids or 3-4 tablespoons of a colorful spice, like paprika or turmeric, per quart of water or replace water with any all-liquid ingredient) and bring to a boil. Turn heat to low and simmer for 20-30 minutes. The motion of the eggs in the boiling water ensures that the color will be even on the egg. The resulting egg will be very hard-boiled and inedible, as it picks up the flavor of the dye. Cold-Dip Method: Combine dye materials, vinegar and water, in the same proportions as the boil method above, in a large pot. Simmer 20-30 minutes, then strain and cool. Dip hard-boiled eggs in cold dye until desired color is achieved, soaking anywhere from 5 minutes to several hours in the refrigerator. Turn eggs occasionally to ensure even dyeing. Dry on paper towels or in egg cartons.
Symbolism of Color White: Purity, birth, virginity, and inocence. Yellow: Youth, light, purity, happiness an dwisdom Red: passion, love, enthusiasm Orange: Endurance, strength, power Green: Renewal, freshness, hope, victory of life over death Brown: earth Blue: Sky, good health derived from air Purple: patience, trust and power Black: remeberance, eternity, constancy, death

22 years of dictatorship has made our Motherland, the Gambia, a hell to live in. In terms of security of the people, the freedom of the people, the healthcare provision of the people, and the financial condition of the citizens became despicable. Life became very expensive due to so many anomalies in our governance. Investment was at a minimum due to the predictable unpredictably of the dictator. As such, providing for one's family became an uphill task.
Notwithstanding all these, a few people – at the risk of their lives – stood up to the dictator. They defied the fear that paralyzed most of us and went out there to demand for change, to demand for reforms which will allow a better and fairer electoral system in order for us to have a change of government which will respect the Rule of Law and respect Human Rights. This, they envisaged, would open the space for investment and funding so that the lot of the common man will improve.
True to his nature, the dictator did not look kindly on such people. As a result, he ordered a clampdown on them. This resulted in some of them paying the ultimate price for our freedom. Mr Solo Sandeng, Lang Marong, Mr Kurumah all lost their lives to this struggle.
Remember, just like you and I, these people were also struggling to feed their families. Having gone out there, under the sun, as it were, while we were in the shade, they forfeited their ability to provide for their families. Some of them have left large families without a breadwinner. I know that one left nine children, with some very young indeed, and another left fifteen children alongwith wives.
Mr President… Are we going to leave these people to suffer want and deprivation after their breadwinners have used their sweat and blood to water our nascent democracy and freesom? What will that tell about us? What kind of future do we envisage for our country if we do that?
Mr President… I know some may say it is too soon, but some basic necessities do not take a break. For instance, the fact that they eat, dress, rent a house, go to school and so many other things on a daily basis. It will not arguer well to just go on as nothing has happened.
So, I'm suggesting the setting up of a special fund for the families of our fallen heroes. In this way, their wives and children can be taken care of, particularly, but not limited to, the education of their children. This way, our future generation would not fear to venture into national service knowing that even were they to die, their posterity will be taken care of…
And also, Mr President, can they be given a posthumous award for gallantry and national service…?
Have a Good Day Mr President…

Mark was a man in constant pain. In his 60s with a history of heart attack and stroke, Mark assumed he'd have to deal with some recurrent health issues, but never imagined the pain storm that hit him and continued for nearly 5 years. Here's his story.
In 2006, Mark was prescribed Lipitor, the cholesterol lowering drug, by his primary physician. Shortly after adding it to his daily regimen, he developed intense pain in the buttocks, thighs and lower back that made even small movements difficult. After doing a little online research, Mark learned that muscle pain was a common side effect of Lipitor (although the Lipitor would later be found to be unrelated). He stopped taking the drug immediately, but the pain continued. Mark had trouble finding a comfortable sleeping position and struggled to get out of bed and in and out of the car. It hurt when he stepped off a curb, turned around, and went from standing to sitting. Even sneezing was a dreaded activity.
Mark saw several doctors in search of relief, but was met with disappointing results. He was told things like "It's only your age," "It's all in your head" and "You'll just have to learn to live with it." The doctors suggested exercise, blaming his aging physique and arthritis. An avid fitness buff his entire life, Mark wasn't buying it.
Trips to various other healthcare practitioners — physical therapists, chiropractors and acupuncturists — occasionally produced temporary relief, but the intense pain always returned. Mark relied on daily large doses of aspirin just to function. Unwilling to accept chronic pain, he scheduled more doctor visits in search of a real diagnosis, but was again met with the same resistance. At one point surgery was suggested, but wasn't a risk he was willing to take. After a chiropractor suggested an MRI, Mark's doctor talked him out of it, saying the test wouldn't show anything. Another doctor said the same thing — that his pain was due to wear and tear, an MRI would not help and a solution simply did not exist.
Then one day, a simple trip to the sauna turned everything around. Mark talks about the conversation that changed his life:
One of my sauna acquaintances mentioned a friend who had been helped by something called injection therapy, an orthopedic treatment where a targeted dose of medication is injected into the spine. I asked my doctor about it and lo and behold, he advised against it, said it would be a waste of time. I didn't accept his theory. I brought up the topic with my daughter; she mentioned she had tried spinal injections after a car accident, and they worked well for her. Had I finally found a way out of living with debilitating pain? At this point I had nothing to lose. I saw Dr. Portner shortly after learning about this treatment. He listened to my stories of pain and considered all of my symptoms. He performed a Sacro-Iliac (SI) joint injection and within a few days, and I felt like a new man. My '10' on the pain scale went down to a '4' and completely disappeared most days. I could finally get a good night's rest.– Mark
When asked about Mark's case, Dr. Portner couldn't stress enough the unfortunate fact that too many doctors fail to perform a proper physical exam and don't take time to truly listen to their patients. "It's common for providers to put aging patients in a lump category where 'aging' is used as a diagnosis. It is simply unfair to write these patients off or skip steps in the diagnostic process based solely on age." Between listening to his history and administering the injection, I performed a very methodical physical exam, testing all the structures and joints in the area to determine the precise diagnosis. An accurate diagnosis tells me where to place the needle — otherwise, it's literally a shot in the dark. In fact, my success in helping people get pain relief is completely dependent on my physical diagnostic skills. Anyone can give a shot, but the effectiveness of the spinal injection is completely based on the doctor's ability to pinpoint the trouble spot."
Dr. Portner encourages geriatric patients to trust their instincts and be assertive with doctors who are giving them the run-around. "At Portner Orthopedic Rehabilitation, we believe our patients when they say something is wrong. Building relationships is a two-way street — we trust that they'll give us the proper clues in the form of symptoms and history, and they trust that we'll use our diagnostic knowledge to the best of our abilities to help them find a solution."
Mark expressed immeasurable gratitude for what Dr. Portner and his team did to improve his quality of life:
I was a wellness nut my whole life, working out all the time, and knew my body was trying to tell me something. I figured the medical profession should be able to find the problem and make it better. It was Dr. Portner who listened to my symptoms and examined my body carefully using his hands in order to find a true diagnosis. All of the trauma of living with daily pain, plus all the money and time I spent seeing doctors, could have been eliminated had I gone to someone like Dr. Portner years ago.– Mark

PowerBright TRx®
Brighter skin, without compromise.
PowerBright TRx™ is the product of several years of research on melanin biosynthesis and skin brightening by the skin health experts at Dermalogica and The International Dermal Institute.
Designed to be layered onto the skin for optimum efficacy, PowerBright TRx™ works around the clock to banish brown spots, discoloration and uneven skin tone for your brightest skin ever.
how it works
Brown spots, discoloration and uneven skin tone are all signs of hyperpigmentation, the treatment of which is a multi-faceted process. When integrated into your Dermalogica regimen, PowerBright TRx™ uses skin-brightening agents to control hyperpigmentation and eliminate dark spots while UV-boosting technology helps protect against future hyperpigmentation.
- Great kitNice little kit to test out. I like it that the moisturiser has a great SPF factor, and it isn't chalky or leave a white residue on my skin - easily absorbed. I have very light, red pigmentation, which still seems to be there - but I guess that is a different issue than brown pigmentation, and one for the beauty therapist??6/08/2018
- Good on Sensitive SkinI have reasonably sensitive skin with pigmentation, and I find it hard to find products that don't irritate it but can treat the dark spots.
The products in this set don't irritate my skin, which is a great start! I've been using them for the past week and 1/2 and while I am yet to see results on the sun damage, I have noticed that some pigmentation marks from recent pimples have been halved in darkness, so that is promising.
The night cream has a lovely silky texture, as does that serum, and the sun protection smells lovely and isn't too greasy on my oily skin.
It doesn't keep me oil free during the day, but I'm not too worried about that at this point.
As my favourite - Caroline Hirons would say - there's plenty of time for matte when we're dead!
If once I have finished this set, I have seen considerable results I may purchase another to work through before investing in the full size, just to be sure that it is working on the sun damage.18/12/2017
- On trialOrdered a sample kit which lasted only 3 days - yet to see full effect. In the meantime the products indeed brightened my skin up with moisturisers that kept my skin supple in winter! Looking forward to ordering the full products soon!29/06/2017
- Perfect combo!I bought this being skeptical about brightening products and those that claim to reduce hyperpigmentation but in just a month of using it, I've seen results!30/04/2017
- Loving my PurebrightLove this product. So light yet effective and I feel secure in the knowledge that I've started my day off with a good sunscreen first thing. Just super love it's lightness on my aging skin.3/10/2016
- Great for pigmentation even with sensitive skinI find I can't tolerate most skin care products that claim to reduce pigmentation - but this one I can!
All three products feel great on the skin and reduce my brown patches without causing redness and peeling.6/04/2016

The INSIDER Summary:
- We rounded up some of the best trendy foods from around the world.
- Examples include chicken parm pizza, sushi doughnuts, and an avocado latte.
This year's viral food scene brought us everything from a shop dedicated to cookie dough to an all-avocado restaurant.
And while some food trends just don't live up to the hype, there are plenty that are worth a try.
We rounded up some of the best foods from around the world that you won't regret waiting in line for.
Keep scrolling to see the dishes that should be on your bucket list.
There's no way you're going to be throwing away this pizza crust. A large circle of chicken parm serves as the crust of the chicken parm pizza that's found at Noble Kitchen and Cocktails.
It's the perfect base for tart tomato sauce and gooey cheese.
The hole in this doughnut-shaped burger and bun from NYC's Clinton Hall is filled with melted cheese and french fries, making for a burger that's super decadent.
You'd need a pretty big group of friends to polish off Coney Waffle's Side Show Shake. The giant milkshake is 32 ounces, stands three feet tall, and weighs around five pounds. It's topped with the works: cotton candy, gummies, an ice cream sandwich, an ice cream cone, and more.
Putting a unique twist on the classic chicken and waffles, Hot Chicks Waffles & Co serves up Nashville hot chicken in brightly-colored waffle cones.
Each color is a different flavor; green is coconut and pandan, purple is ube, and red is red velvet.
What started as a joke at Melbourne's Truman Cafe quickly turned into a viral treat. To create the unique beverage, the cafe simply pours coffee straight into a hollowed-out avocado. It's finished off with some Instagram-worthy latte art.
One of the most refreshing — and creative — treats of the summer is What-a-Melon, watermelon-flavored soft serve presented in a slice of watermelon complete with chocolate "seeds." Unsurprisingly, it's served at Tokyo's Dominique Ansel Bakery.
In an effort to come up with a fresh take on the poké trend, the owners of Tail & Fin started serving the customizeable dish in a pineapple. Besides adding a photogenic factor, the fruit also gives the rice a sweeter taste.
If you're looking to spice up your morning bagel, look no further than Becky's Bites, a shop dedicated to cream cheese. Their flavors are particularly unique — think cappuccino, peanut butter, and Funfetti birthday cake.
Topped with mini beef patties, burger buns, bacon, fried eggs, and french fries, Krave it Sandwich Shop & Eatery's cheeseburger pizza is like two meals in one.
The shop is famous for its wacky pizza creations; there's even a pie with cool ranch Doritos.
The whimsical lattes at The End Brooklyn are both pretty and good for you. The purple amethyst latte, for example, has a crystal-infused berry juice blend and is steamed with homemade coconut milk. The unicorn latte even has live blue algae.
Avocaderia offers all things — you guessed it — avocado. Every one of the restaurant's menu items has the fruit in it, from smoothies to salads to mousse.
The most popular is the avoburger, which features smoked salmon, herb yogurt, watermelon radish, and arugula all sandwiched between a whole avocado.
A whole five times bigger than the average soup dumpling, Little Alley's emperor soup dumpling is stuffed with gelatinized chicken broth and crab meat. The best part about ordering the dish? Watching it explode when you squeeze it.
Smoothies are just as tasty — but a lot prettier — when they come in bowl form. Located inside the Canal Street Market food hall, Lulu serves up smoothie bowls of all different colors topped with everything from dragon fruit to bee pollen to almond butter.
Project Poke created the ultimate savory doughnut with the sushi doughnut. A ring of rice is stuffed with avocado or spicy tuna and then decorated with cucumber, sesame seeds, and fresh fish.
French restaurant Le Rivage takes all the best parts of French onion soup — lots of melted cheese and caramelized onions — and puts it on a burger sandwiched in between an English muffin. It's the best of both worlds.
The light and fluffy chiffon cake rolls from Sunmerry Bakery are filled with rich mascarpone cream and come in all sorts of flavors.
Rainbow is — unsurprisingly — one of the most popular. Others include milk tea, cheesecake, and Nutella.
This 30-foot-long noodle — known as maccheroni alla mugnaia — is aptly topped with 30 meatballs. It takes the chefs at Allora 30 minutes to roll it, and diners eat it with a pair of kitchen sears.
Catch swirls cinnamon roll filling directly into their homemade pancake batter to create this decadent breakfast hybrid. A glaze made of whipped cream cheese tops off the dish, along with candied almonds for texture.
A monstrous meal for a monstrous appetite, the FTB (fries taco burrito) from Cali Tacos is packed with fries, meat, cheese, guacamole, sour cream, and the restaurant's special cali sauce.
You can tackle the dish by folding it once and eating it like a taco or by wrapping it up and eating it like a burrito. Either way, you probably won't be able to finish all of it.
The shaved ice at Spoon by H is made from coconut milk and is piled high with add-ons like fruit, chocolate sauce, whipped cream, lychees, mochi, and even ice cream.
Pop Pasta took spaghetti pie, a traditional Neapolitan recipe, and turned it into a food hybrid that people couldn't wait to try. Made with leftover spaghetti and cheese, the donuts come in three different flavors: carbonara, red sauce (pictured above), and mac and cheese.
A colorful twist on the popular Mexican street food, elote (corn on the cob with mayo and cheese), uni-corn features corn on the cob that's covered in butter, mayo, and colored Parmesan cheese.
Liam's Lemonade makes the snack, which you can find at food markets and events in California.
The first thing you do when you get to Selfie Coffee is take a selfie. The shop then prints that selfie onto a layer of whipped cream on top of the coffee you order. It's the ultimate millennial drink.
When you order the nachos ala bomba at La Carnita Modern Mexican Cantina in Manila, you'll get to watch as a blanket of ground beef, beans, and best of all, homemade cheese sauce is poured on nacho chips right at your table.
You'll barely be able to tell that there's a Rice Krispie treat underneath all the toppings that Savannah's Candy Kitchen adds to them.
The treats are covered in a shell of chocolate and are then finished with anything from cookies to candy to sprinkles. No wonder they're served on a stick.
If mac and cheese in a bowl is too boring for you, Merchants River House offers the comfort food favorite in a waffle cone. Order the quartet as an appetizer to share, and you'll get four flavors: cheese, bacon, lobster, and buffalo chicken.
These jiggly soufflé pancakes are created by a whole lot of batter whipping. Taiwan's Autumn Soufflé Cafe stacks the puffy cakes with smoked salmon, strawberries, eggs, and more.
Buns Bar truly lives up to its name. The restaurant specializes in burgers that have some pretty crazy buns, like the 21st century burger, which features a patty sandwiched between two thick slabs of fried mozzarella.
The ultimate breakfast dessert combo, Sweet Combforts' waffle pops are Belgian waffles that come on a stick. They're covered in either vanilla, chocolate, or strawberry icing and decked out in fruit, cereal, nuts, and other fun add-ons.
Fat Sal's doesn't believe in less is more. The shop is known for its monstrous sandwiches, like the Big Fat Fatty, which weighs over 12 pounds.
The sandwich includes five fried eggs, five cheeseburgers, and three pounds of steak and pastrami, all of which is topped with fries, onion rings, chicken fingers, and mozzarella sticks.
Former "Top Chef" contestant Leah Cohen serves up Southeast Asian food at her NYC restaurant, Pig and Khao.
Her padcakes are fried cakes stuffed with pad thai, a dish that came about when Cohen was trying to figure out how to incorporate pad thai into the menu. The stuffing of the cakes changes monthly.
The Barge House is a brunch staple in London thanks to the restaurant's loaded bread bowls. The "bowls" are hallowed-out loaves of sourdough bread that are stuffed with delicious breakfast staples like eggs, cheese, bacon, sausage, and veggies.
The Siren — otherwise known as the mermaid margarita — is a whopping 114 ounces of sangria and frozen margarita that's served along the water at NYC's Watermark Bar. It's the equivalent of 10 regular margs, so you'll want to share this one.
Dos Chino's spices up their elote by adding a whole main lobster that's cut in half, deep fried, and seasoned. The lobster sits on a bed of fries. Grilled corn, garlic aoli, and melted Montery Jack cheese finish off the seafood street food mash up.
Ice cream tastes much better when it's in a cone made out of funnel cake. California food truck Drizzle serves the genius combination with plenty of fun toppings like Fruity Pebbles, sprinkles, chocolate sauce, whipped cream, and fruit.
Inspired by Mexican tacos al pastor, this pizza from California's Rose City Pizza is topped with pork shaved right from the spit, as well as pineapples and onions. It's the perfect hybrid of two tasty meals.
Kings of Kobe has come up with plenty of funky ways to serve their hot dogs. One of their most fun is the waffle dog, a hot dog on a stick encased in waffle batter. It's served with a spicy maple aoli for an extra kick.
You might not think of brunch as the best opportunity to detox, but one San Francisco restaurant defies that notion. Me & Tasty serves black pancakes that are made with activated charcoal, which some people think aids in digestion.
At Stari Pisker, diners can scoop buttery bone marrow right out of cow bones. The decadent dish is served with chimichurri sauce and onion straws, plus a shot of tequila that you pour down the bone into your mouth when you've finished the marrow.
Not for the faint of heart, this sandwich boasts a whole soft shell crab that's fried in beer batter and served with mango-papaya slaw at The Fat Monk, a gastropub in NYC. Luckily, diners don't have to worry about any shell, so they can dig right in.
Last year was the year of the rainbow bagel, but this year, the cereal bagel is taking over. In an effort to differentiate themselves, Bagels R Us came up with bagels infused with fun cereals like Cooke Crisp, Lucky Charms, and Fruity Pebbles.
They even have cereal-infused cream cheese to make for a truly sweet breakfast hybrid.
You'd be hard-pressed to find an omelette this fluffy anywhere else besides La Mère Poulard. This French restaurant in Tokyo is known for their jiggling egg dish. Golden on the outside and foamy on the inside, the specialty is made from a secret recipe.
Heirloom Toronto is known for their fresh, local "farm to truck" food, and their cheesecake on a stick is no different. The homemade cheesecake is covered in all kinds of toppings, from chocolate sauce to bacon to caramel and hazelnut. Plus, you get to eat it on a stick.
For those who have a hard time choosing between sweet and savory when it comes to brunch or breakfast, The Horny Ram has the pancake burger. Two pancakes serve as the buns for this burger that's topped with cheese, bacon, a fried egg, and maple syrup.
Brioche rolls are a good vessel for lobster, but cheesy bacon taco shells are even better. The Highroller Lobster Co's food truck grills shredded cheddar and Swiss cheese mixed with bacon bits and then fills the shell with chunks of lobster topped with lime jalapeño or red pepper mayo.
Chances are you've heard of and maybe even tried truffle risotto before. But it probably wasn't served in a massive cheese wheel like it is at Italian restaurant Fusco in New York City. It's like the risotto version of cacio e pepe.
All of Sweet Dogs' hot dogs are named after Miami sports teams and schools. The Dolphins is covered in a sheet of melted mozzarella cheese and then piled high with ham, bacon, pineapple, home sauce, and papitas.
There's an endless array of Rice Krispie treat flavors at NYC's Treat House— everything from cookies and cream to s'mores to birthday cake to bubblegum.
Despite the fact that Cravin Crab Cakes is a food truck in California, it still serves authentic Maryland-style seafood. The Bawlmore crab fries are waffle fries loaded with cheese fondue, shredded cheese, crab meat, bacon, fried jalapeños, and of course, Old Bay seasoning.

Jay Z had a big year in 2013. He established his "#NewRules" by releasing a new album called Magna Carta Holy Grail with very little warning. He earned nine nominations for the 2014 Grammy Awards. And he also helped Robinson Cano sign one of the biggest contracts in MLB history as part of his first major Roc Nation Sports deal. So 2013 was all about winning for Jay Z…except when it came to fantasy football.
Hov took part in a fantasy football league this fall alongside a bunch of fellow celebs like Chris Paul and called on ESPN experts like fantasy guru Matthew Berry to help him orchestrate his draft. And while he's just as secretive as Eminem is when it comes to fantasy football (we probably wouldn't have even known that Jay plays fantasy football if not for some interviews that Berry did last summer), we just found out that Jay Z did not end up winning his league. The champion ended up being none other than…
Congrats to @stevestoute for winning THIS in the GUTS fantasy football league aka Jay-Z's lg. http://t.co/2OjLoDPJ79
— Matthew Berry (@MatthewBerryTMR) January 2, 2014
Kudos to you, Steve Stoute. Not too many people can say that they beat Jay Z at, well, anything in 2013. But you did. Enjoy your ring.

Fairyhouse Races
This is a tribute website operated by websiteadverts.co.uk. Please note we are not affiliated to any one racecourse or group of racecourses.
Horseracing fans who visit Ireland cannot fail to be impressed with the number and standard of racecourses in the country. From the small friendly local courses to the premier venues such as the Curragh, the love and deep-rooted culture for horseracing is very much in evidence.
Fairyhouse Racecourse
is undoubtedly one of the premier venues and situated in County Meath is convenient for daytrips from Dublin.
With a long history in racing dating from 1848, Fairyhouse races for many means the Irish Grand National which has been held at the course since 1870. Upgraded modern facilities provide the ideal hospitality demanded from such top level events.
Easy access from Dublin, with added public transport options on the big race days, certainly brings the casual racegoers looking for a great day out but it is the high standard of Fairyhouses races which really draw the crowds.
The track has a reputation as a fair surface, encouraging a high standard of competition by the very best horses and riders.
All the great names in jump racing have competed at
including L'Escargot, who was trained at the course and succeeded in both Irish and Grand Nationals, beating superstar Red Rum in the process. Desert Orchid has also triumphed here as well as many other household names in racing.
The right-handed circuit used for Fairyhouse races is 1 mile 6 1/2 furlongs in circumference, with a straight of 2 1/2 furlongs. The finish is uphill and provides for some stamina sapping and thrilling race conclusions. The flagship meeting at the course is the Easter Festival, a four day event which includes the Irish Grand National, held on the second day, Easter Monday. This famous steeplechase is open to horses at five years and older and contested over 3 miles, 5 furlongs, with 23 jumps to negotiate.
The most lucrative and prestigious race in the Irish National Hunt Calendar, the Irish Grand National is one of Ireland's greatest and best loved sporting events but it is not the only meeting featuring Grade I
Fairyhouse races
. Hattons Grace Hurdle is a further Grade I event and is held during The Winter Festival in November.
There is a Summer Festival too, in June, which features evening races and a great social atmosphere with live entertainment following the races.
There are various admission options at
Fairyhouse races
and prices for racegoers to enjoy Fairyhouse races.
Standard adult admission increases for the big events, such as the National.
Concessions are available for senior citizens and students, and accompanied children under 16 get in for free. A 20% discount in admission prices applies to groups of 20 or more when booked in advance and discounts of up to 40% can be had by members.
An annual membership permits access to all 21 annual meetings. Members also enjoy free parking, access to exclusive members' areas of the course and can admit a guest to four meetings of their choice.
Hospitality packages provide further options for racegoers and are ideal for parties and groups who want an all-inclusive race day experience. Up to 300 persons can be accommodated within Bobbyjo Bistro on race day and a Summer Series package comprises a table booked for the duration of the day's event, a three course meal, welcome glass of wine, and live entertainment to finish the evening. The Arkle Room is a further facility which can cater for up to 200 and there are private boxes incorporating a silver service meal for 12 persons or buffet for 20. There are numerous other public bars and dining options at the course.
at the Races probably isn't as expensive as you think! "Do it in style", there's nothing nicer than being waited on during your day at the races!

Where has this year gone? Mine has absolutely flown by, and I seem to be getting nothing much done. We took a holiday in July, and have another at the end of September, and the house renovations haven't started yet, so August has been a bit of a dead month. But being home a bit more has given more time to play with weekend meal ideas. Enjoy!
Veggie-packed toad in the hole
There are enough vegetables in this to allow you to ignore the fact you're serving up sausages in batter.
Make a batter of three eggs, 300ml milk, 150g plain flour and a pinch of salt.
Heat some oil in a roasting tin then throw in chipolatas and diced sweet potato and roast for 10 minutes. Add some sliced red onions or halved baby leeks and some small fingers of courgette and roast for another 5 minutes. Then add half a cup of frozen peas and some asparagus tips, pour over the batter and stir together.
Roast for another 30-odd minutes until the batter is puffy and crispy.
Serve with gravy, if you like. I gave the Gs a spoonful of baked beans on the side, too, to further assuage my starchy guilt.
Honey and lemon chicken
Full disclosure: Neither of them bloody ate this at all, but they should have done, as it's quite sweet and non-threatening and full of vegetables they do normally eat. Plus noodles, yay!
Coat diced chicken in lemon juice, honey and minced ginger and marinade for at least an hour.
Bake in a moderate oven for half an hour, or you could stir fry.
I served this with noodles and steamed courgettes, baby corn, carrots and peas.
White bolognese
Obviously this is not a bolognese, but it's tasty anyway.
Fry off some pancetta or bacon then add turkey mince, garlic and onions to the pan and cook until the meat is browned and the onions are soft.
Add a splash of white wine and cook off, then add a big blob of creme fraiche and a teaspoon of grainy mustard. Cook for another couple of minutes and finish with a squeeze of lemon juice and some chopped tarragon.
Serve over whichever pasta your kids like/can manage.
Turkey meatballs
I usually make beef meatballs for the Gs, as they need the iron and fat, but I had some turkey mince leftover from the bolognese so did these instead.
Mix turkey mince with a beaten egg and breadcrumbs to get a firm consistency. Add any veg you fancy – I had leftover avocado for lunch so that went in, plus some finely grated onion, courgette and carrot. Mushroom would also be good, or you could add some mashed white beans for extra protein.
Roll into balls and brown gently, then pour in a can of chopped tomatoes and a splash of water and simmer for 10 mins.
I served these with baked beans and peas but I would have done sweet potato chips if I had any in.
