Soups Recipes
Lobster Tails in Spicy Broth
As I mentioned yesterday, we had a dinner guest the other evening. He lived in Japan for 20 years and now he's back to the US. We've met several times in the past and I remembered his love for seafood, so I promised him a special feast the next time he came to visit.
I wanted to prepare a special dish with luxurious flavors. so I served out-of-this-world lobster tails in spicy broth.
Lobster tails were pan-fried first, then sautéed in Chinese chives, Thai basil leaves and garlic and then dipped in a spicy lobster broth.

Simple Chicken Noodle Soup Recipe
My husband Lulu has gone on a business trip again for the week, so I don't cook as much while he's out of town. I simply boiled a whole chicken, nothing really fancy.
Since a whole chicken was way too much for Aria and me, I cut part of the chicken into small pieces, added a few rice noodles, carrots, mushrooms and some snow peas. Nothing more, nothing less. I like the unpretentious and elementary feel of this dish. Baby Aria enjoyed it too.
I'll keep the leftovers and make chicken salad tomorrow.

Bun Canh Do Bien Recipe (Vietnamese Crab Noodle Soup)
The idea of eating hot soup during May sounds strange to many people. But in tropical countries, consuming hot broth at any time of the day (even for breakfast!) is normal. Odd as it is, hot liquid on a hot day does seem to help your body stay cool. With this factoid and the heat spike we've been experiencing in the Bay Area, I prepared bún canh đồ biển.
It has a sweet, red-colored broth (I used annatto seed oil to color it). The soup is fairly soft in texture: round, thick noodles are used and cá hồng (red snapper), crab meat, shredded lettuce, bean sprouts and sugar snap peas are added at the last minute.

Zucchini and Pea Soup Recipe
The weather isn't as warm these days compared to last week. I prepared a hearty soup made exclusively of vegetables I was able to harvest from our garden, except for the canned pinto beans.
Harvesting ingredients planted by the girls, Lulu and even baby Aria made me proud. They appreciate that we get to grow organic fruits and vegetables. So far we have been able to eat strawberries, Creole onions, green onions, zucchini, peas and the first tomatoes that have started peaking. Can't wait to see what the rest of the season will have for us!

Red Wine Onion Beef Broth
My husband Lulu is traveling all week, but right before taking him to the airport, his allergies were bothering him. I gave him antihistamine and prepared a French onion soup-inspired broth to ease his congestion. The broth was made of a combination of red wine, beef bones and loads of onions. I thickened it with a simple roux (flour and butter mixture) and upped the flavored with fresh thyme.
I served the broth with cheesy cornucopia (horn-shaped) puff pastry appetizers. They provided the perfect contrast of texture with the flavorful broth.

Exemption from cuts covers only service members' paychecks, not their health benefits.
If Washington's defense community has achieved one thing over the past year, it's spreading the message of how the fiscal cliff could desecrate the military. Sequestration cuts of $55 billion would jeopardize weapons contracts, furlough civilian staff, and imperil national security, defense hawks say.
One glaring casualty has gotten far less notice: the military's $37 billion health account. In designing the trigger mechanism, members of Congress were careful to make sure that the men and women in uniform wouldn't suffer because of the cuts—but not careful enough. Now, without a compromise on Capitol Hill during the lame-duck session, the deal the committee crafted would cause a rollback in health benefits for active-duty troops, veterans, and their families.
When lawmakers wrote the Budget Control Act (which set up the fiscal cliff), they gave President Obama the option, which he has already exercised, to exempt military-personnel accounts and the Veterans Affairs budget. Many observers believe, falsely, that these groups are safe: That exemption covers only troops' paychecks, not their health benefits, which fall under another part of the Pentagon budget.
About 9 million active-duty soldiers, retirees, and families are enrolled in the military's health care system, known as Tricare. While other massive federal health programs are largely shielded from the effects of sequestration—Medicare is limited to a 2 percent cut and Medicaid is completely exempted—discretionary spending for military health programs such as Tricare could see a 9.4 percent reduction in 2013 if the automatic cuts take effect. (The military's Tricare for Life program, which covers Medicare co-pays and premiums for retirees over 65, is protected.)
Defense health accountants have never tried to absorb steep cuts on short notice. Steve Strobridge, director of government relations for the Military Officers Association of America, says that the cuts could rattle the entire Tricare system, from hospitals to doctors to drug coverage. "It could affect anything from mowing the lawn, to not having the formulary cover as many medications, to cutting physicians so it takes longer to get an appointment, to actually reducing what Tricare pays," he says.
The Tricare cuts are an obvious political grenade: No one in Congress or the administration wants to be seen as breaking faith with the troops because of budget gridlock. Policymakers may try to snatch Tricare's sequestered $3.3 billion from other defense accounts so they don't have to face stories about active-duty troops and their family members getting cut off from lifesaving drugs. But it wouldn't be easy to find that money when every account has been slashed by nearly 10 percent.
Pentagon Comptroller Robert Hale told the House Armed Services Committee in late September that it would be "very difficult, frankly," to save the defense health account. "We can only do it through reprogramming, and you've got to find something to cut. And as I've learned painfully over the last four years, that's very hard to do." Instead, the military would probably be unable to pay its Tricare bills until the end of fiscal 2013, Hale said. "I'm not quite sure what our providers would do in that case.… We'd try to fix it in '14."
Todd Harrison of the Center for Strategic and Budgetary Assessments describes another unpleasant possibility: Health care providers could ration care. "You could have some sort of triage system where you say, 'If this is something that can wait, a low priority, we're not going to see you,' and focus care on some of the highest-priority patients," Harrison says. To fix the problem, Congress could amend the Budget Control Act to let Obama exempt defense health care, too. In that case, though, other defense accounts (which the sequester will already cut by 9.4 percent) would face a much steeper reduction than the 8.2 percent falloff in nondefense spending.
Still, even this option carries significant political risks. As the clock ticks down to the new year's deadline, Obama is not likely to want to discuss how best to gouge other defense accounts further. And at every turn, the administration has insisted it will not plan for the looming cuts, rebuffing the GOP's effort to make the White House spell out how it might mitigate the damage of sequestration. The White House says that members of Congress should spend their time and energy reaching a deficit deal so the cuts don't take effect, instead of hashing out details in case of failure. Opening up last-minute heated political negotiations—even to something all sides would presumably want—could also start congressional turf wars over, say, what weapons systems in what districts might be slashed or delayed.
So Congress is unlikely to revisit the sequestration rules before the deadline. In other words, those deficit hawks worried about desecrating the military were closer to the mark than they knew.

Senators continued the contentious debate over a bill that would ban Texas localities from having 'sanctuary city' policies, which would allow officers to question people about their immigration status.
Amendment 1 — Rodriguez: Would have exempted special police districts, like for hospitals and schools, from the 'sanctuary cities.' Williams won't accept the amendment because he doesn't see the need to exempt the districts and says it will create confusion. Tabled by a vote of 19-12
Amendment 2 — Uresti: Would allow some agencies to exempt their employees from having to enforce immigration policy. Tabled by a vote of 19-12
Amendment 3 — Uresti: Would prevent law enforcement from investigating the citizenship of those under the age of 17 if they were victims of crimes or a witness to a crime. Says that it would place an undo burden on the victim. Williams said that minors are typically asked where they are born and that it's important to maintain the uniform standard for police. Table by a vote of 19-12.
Amendment 4 — Uresti: This is roughly the same amendment as the last amendment, but uses another mechanism for implementation. Williams reiterates that there might be unintended consequences and that victims of the crimes could apply for special visas that would allow them to stay in the country.
Sen. Uresti offered the example of a young girl being raped and the rapist threatening her with deportation if she reports the crime.
"That five year old little girl doesn't know" what special visa to get, Uresti said, slamming Williams. The motion was then tabled, and the Sen. Royce West, D-Dallas rose to ask for the Senate to reconsider.
"I'm asking you to think long and hard abotu this amendment and the reconsideration of it," said Royce. "This amendment protects children [who are victims] of crimes."
Williams rebutted and said that Sen. West had " laid out a very emotionally appealing argument." He said that those children could obtain a special visa from the State Department to stay in the country.
West's bid to reconsider was rejected by a vote of 13-18. It was originally tabled by a vote of 19-12.
Amendment 5 — Rodriguez: Would exempt local governments and state government from enforcing federal immigration law. Williams says it will gut the bill. Amendment is tabled by a vote of 19-12.
Amendment 6 — W. Davis: Would prevent the state from investigating the immigration status of anyone detained in associated with a criminal investigations, including witnesses and victims. Williams says that he trusts the discretion of the police to only ask the question when appropriate. He doesn't believe that should be restricted because he trusts Texas' police officers to make the right call. Tabled by a vote of 19-12.
Amendment 7 — Uresti: Accepted by Williams. Not materially significant.
Amendment 8 — Van de Putte/West: Tabled.
Amendment 9: Was never brought up.
Amendment 10: Was accepted.
Amendment 11 — Rodriguez: Would only allow law enforcement to inquire about immigration status when it is relevant to an investigation. Ogden stands to ask if it runs contrary to the bill. Williams says that the amendment would harm the effectiveness of the bill. MOves to table. Motion to table is accepted by a vote of 19-12.

The Alle-Kiski Society of the Penn State Alumni Association will meet at 6:30 p.m., Monday, Sept. 17, in the Conference Center at Penn State New Kensington.
The top agenda item is the schedule of activities for the alumni tent at Penn State New Kensington's Fall Festival. Among its many projects, the society sponsors the "Alumni Central" tent at the annual campus and community event, set for Saturday, Sept. 29. The highlight of tent festivities will be the Penn State vs. Illinois football game on a big-screen TV. Game time has yet to be announced. Refreshments will be available at kick-off. For more information, contact Bill Woodard at 724-334-6046 or firstname.lastname@example.com.
A special aspect of the September meeting is a tour of the new athletic facilities and chemistry lab. Last year, the society's board fulfilled its $10,000 pledge to the Athletics Center. Its donation was used to refurbish the Fitness Center, giving the women's locker room a complete makeover, moving cardiovascular equipment to its own room, and setting up a pilates/yoga studio. The chemistry lab in the Science Building was thoroughly renovated. The upgrades improved safety and will allow for more hands-on instruction that support requirements for chemistry and other disciplines.
The society meets on the third Monday of each month, and all alumni, parents, students and friends of Penn State are welcome to attend. Based on the New Kensington campus, the society represents more than 7,000 alumni living in the Alle-Kiski Valley.

These blogging prompts are fun. On Mondays we are encouraged to discuss madness, whether that of ancestors or our own in crazy pursuit of them. I love how the blogging world lets you just take the prompt and run with it, so tonight I shall release a little pent up anxiety and frustration over the fact that I never seem to have enough "thoughtful time" to actually work on my genealogy. It makes me crazy! Not in the same way my Aunt Mary was crazy. I mean, I'm not collecting empty milk cartons and lining them up all around the edges of every room in my house. I didn't have a nervous breakdown because the local pharmacist promised to marry me but instead ran off with his own wife. Yeah. And I've never howled like a banshee on Christmas Eve. Poor Aunt Mary. I feel sad about her life, and they never even let me meet her.
But I'm not that kind of crazy – just the highly vexed kind of crazy. The kind where you are hyper aware of the irony in carefully researching and writing about your ancestors whilst hurriedly caring for your descendants. And lamenting the fact that you can't spend enough time on either because you have complete strangers to research for: ones that expect quick turnaround and don't want to hear that your eldest son just broke a knuckle trying to take out the next son in line, and you didn't expect to be at the doctor's three times in a week, once for surgery. Clients are not interested in the fact that living with four males with ADD (only one diagnosed, and that is only borderline, but trust me...) can make for scatterbrained living.
I try so hard. I'll be editing a footnote, for instance, realizing that I've erroneously placed the [penned] page number before the enumeration district, and I calmly highlight and cut the enumeration district, but before I have time to paste it in it's proper place, someone lets out a bloodcurdling scream, and with that shot of adrenaline, I'm out of my chair, ears pricked, waiting for the thud. Any thought of pasting the enumeration district totally obliterated. It's not like you can go back and see the error again, because half of it is gone. You have to hope you'll notice there is now no enumeration district, but because the adrenaline is still doing its thing, you may not.
For this reason I am glad that it is back-to-school time. I am in desperate need of long stretches of time in which to complete sensible editing. I love being a Mom. I adore my boys and love to be with them, but in summer it is really hard to find those large chunks of time. Whether it be for an orthodontist appointment, to cycle another load of laundry through, to drive them to the park to play flag football, or to a trombone lesson, or to cook for them and their overnight guests, or even the eternal grocery shopping, a LOT of my time is dedicated to them. And that's the way I want it. Hubby and I both consider it the ultimate luxury for a family to have a parent who can be at home with the kids. Mine are getting older now, but we all still see great value in this. Soooo, I work when I can. And in summer, that means less.
I have a couple of client reports that are well overdue and it is eating away at me. Starting tomorrow, I hope to start eating away at them instead! It's only a four-day week, but it seems like plenty of time to start getting caught up. Wish me luck!

The form of jury-less criminal trials
The first major criminal trial to be held without a jury in Britain for more than 350 years (the Heathrow Airport Robbery Trial) concluded yesterday. Until this case, and since the abolition of the Court of Star Chamber in 1641, all serious criminal offences on indictment were tried by jury. Trial by jury traces its roots back to Article 39 of the Magna Carta signed by King John in 1215.
Trials on indictment without a jury were made possible by The Criminal Justice Act 2003. A judge may now order a jury-less trial in the specific cases of complex fraud and jury tampering.
There has been much discussion about the ramifications of the removal of the right to trial by jury in criminal trials. I think that the right to trial by jury of ones peers is an important right, and I think it was wrong to remove that right.
But, in the context of our situation where we have had our right to trial by jury removed, I want to talk about something else – the form of those jury-less trials.
The jury should be replaced, not eliminated
In a jury trial, broadly speaking, the judge rules on matters of law and is responsible for sentencing; the jury decides matters of fact (by evaluating the evidence). What's more the jury consists of individuals with varying opinions and backgrounds – the debate that occurs between jurors in the jury room is an essential part of establishing a verdict. A judge sitting on their own has nobody to challenge their assumptions.
When a case is tried by a single judge, both the form of the trial and the dynamic of the courtroom is radically changed.
Part 7 (Trials on indictment without a jury) of The Criminal Justice Act 2003 addresses the problems of complex and lengthy trials and the problems of jury tampering. These are problems resulting from having citizen jurors, not problems resulting from a having a jury per se.
Rather than solving the problems by complete removal of the jury, I believe that the less drastic measure of replacing the citizen jury by an appointed jury should be adopted. In particular:
- The jury should be replaced, not combined with the role of judge. That is there should be a judge who acts as judge in the case, and a separate judge who sits unrobed in the jury box and acts as proxy for the jury. Being unrobed is important, since it is a constant reminder to the court that the judge is acting as jury, not as judge and jury.
- Having said (2), and mentioned the importance of debate within the jury, I think that if the jury is replaced, then it should actually be replaced by at least two judges who sit unrobed in the jury box.
- The sitting judge should treat the appointed jury of judges just like a citizen jury.
- Having three judges for a trial is undoubtedly expensive, but the expense serves as a disincentive to removing a citizen jury.

One girl's twistedly fantastic interpretation of what the hell is really going on in those tribes.
Monday, February 13, 2012
Kourtney: The Crow Flies Straight
Kourtney Moon is another 29 year old from Texas, but this chick isn't peddling gowns to bridezillas. Nope. She's tuning up your carburetor, lubing your gaskets, and tightening your pistons. Miss Kourtney just happens to be in Motorcycle Repair and as far as I'm concerned that makes her a member of the Sons Of Anarchy. Immediately I'm envisioning her weaving in and out of gang crossfire, engaging in one night stands smelling of whiskey, and heading late night drug runs to Tupelo. She greets each day with a grease smeared face, some guy's phone number written across her breast, and a wrench in her back pocket.
But if we read further, we discover that Ms. Moon is a knitter who can't stand it when people enjoy the smell of their own farts. She also doesn't like narcissists, cheaters, people with low moral codes, and sociopaths. Let me guess... A two-timing arrogant prick screwed you over and rode off into the sunset? Happens to the best of us, darlin'. At least you're not bitter. Heh.
I want to like her, but I'm bothered that she wants to play with integrity. If history has taught us anything it's that people who go into the game wanting to be "nice" either lose or bore us to tears. She's super cute and likable, but I'm getting a meek mousey vibe from her. I'm not expecting much as far as entertainment and scandal with this one. There's a tiny waft of insecurity there and I predict that that will be her downfall. Nice girl, but can she slice some throats along the way? The magic eight ball says: NOT BLOODY LIKELY.

Is 'would have' the correct format for the part in bold? Can we use other tenses in the same context?

The Ott Band – Love Me
by admin on Nov.21, 2009, under Good Music
So. The OTT Band. I was weary. Much like freesoulJAH, this one, too, underwent an evolving perception with me. The difference is that freesoulJAH is freesoulJAH. He is what he is, and it's unexpected, but in the end, it really kind of works in some weird way. The OTT Band, on the other hand, has taken a very dire marketing misstep here.
I open up this London band's CD and holy shit. This album art is terrible. It appears to be the equivalent of those over-the-hill American singer/songwriter guys who play in shit ass cover bands full time while pushing out the occasional disc of basement recordings that might have been good fifteen years ago before their ideas were so outdated. You know, cynical bastards that have nowhere to go but the sports bar? The OTT Band's CD cover has a group of people, who I presume to be said band, in a cheap, candid, pulled back snapsot. The whole thing is soaked in the color orange, and stamped with fonts that apparently were included in Microsoft Publisher 98. How the fuck was I going to review this? If this band truly is comprised of those sports bar frequenting, cover band playing, old wankers, I can't point all this out to them. I have sympathy for those guys, after all. Is the destruction of their rock star dreams not enough? Now they've got to take a verbal ass kicking from some punk ass snot shit American sitting comfortably behind his computer?
I'm happy to report that no…they do not. Hence it is confirmed that one truly cannot tell a book by it's cover.
The vocals on the opening track, "Don't Know," are the last difficult hurdle to get over, but once you make it past, this is a very rewarding listen. It's not any kind of style that is considered new. However, it is a style that is so difficult to properly execute, there are only a small handful of bands out there that have ever been able to pull it off…and nowadays no one even tries. I'm talking about the music of the 80's. But not the 80's you're familiar with. Not that kitschy, coked out radio discomfort that you know in such forms as Dead or Alive, Thompson Twins or fucking Madonna. The Ott Band is tapped into something far more creative, pure and interesting. It's that part of the 80's that the cool kids were into. The early part that bled with the end of the 70's and was more focused on an innovative, worldly and artistic sound. Music for music and change…not music for money and drugs. The OTT Band resonates loudly with the sounds of The Specials, The English Beat or Sandinista! era Clash.
Those are all UK bands. Maybe this is just a difference in form between the United Kingdom and America, where I was stuck. Maybe they take for granted this kind of sound over there. I just don't hear anyone doing it anymore. Fortunately, The OTT Band relishes in it. They touch on that blessed sound that is not quite reggae, not quite rock, a little bit closer to dancehall, and strangely uplifting. There is a good use of what sounds like full choirs of people here. There are watery electronics, very notably applied on "Six Million Miles," that serves as a testament to the detail put into these songs. The range of what they do with the music is also nicely expansive. On one end we have the head bobbing, ska-before-ska-was-ska, "Sending in the Lions," mixed with odd modern notions of "getting bling." It's a playful antithesis to "Special," a dubby, introspective gem of night music. Everything in between is a carefully laid landscape of pianos, guitars, horns and whatever else was needed to make these songs complete.
The only other complaint I can voice about this band is their website where they have a section called, "Who the **** are The OTT Band?" To this, guys, I gotta recommend that you just type out the "fuck" word. I mean, it's 2009. Everyone knows what four asterisks mean and most people really enjoy the word "fuck" anyway.
As for the album cover, just ask me next time. I'll work you up something more fitting…free of charge.

When I install some system, I usually look for a bulk update method, one that will update my recently-installed software.
For example, in Debian, that would be changing the
sources.list to point to what I want, and executing
# apt-get update && apt-get dist-upgrade.
Is there an equivalent to this in Fedora (18)? Is there a GUI upgrade manager that I am missing?
A message in Gnome popped up that my system requires important updates. I dismissed it, as the only option it had presented me with was "Install updates", and I wasn't quite sure what would that do.
Now, the message has disappeared, and I cannot find it, not any software it might have been connected with.
What am I missing here?

The more functionality you can squeeze out of a piece of furniture, the better it is for your cramped bachelor pad. So if your home life is a constant struggle with space, check out Agnieszka Mazur's Takka stool set which serves as seating, side tables, a coffee table, and a cozy place for two to dine.
All of the pieces are strategically designed to cozy up to each other as closely as possible for a minimal footprint when not needed.

Even if you live in a tiny closet of an apartment, you won't feel embarrassed about having friends over when your similarly tiny furniture looks this good.

COOKEVILLE, Tenn. -- Over 20 Golden Eagles participated in the Tennessee Tech Festival of Writing Tuesday afternoon. The student-athletes gave their input on new traditions on Tech's campus.
In it's 11th year, the Tennessee Tech Writing Festival showcased the work of first year English students. Participants were asked to adapt their individual or collaborative writing skills and research to create projects other than traditional essays. With over 200 students, groups displayed posters, gave performances, and speeches on their ideas for new Tech traditions.
Student-athletes from the Tech football, soccer, softball and women's basketball programs presented in the festival. A few ideas highlighted athletic events, including adding talent shows to half-time, a "challenge the athlete" competition and a "Midnight Madness".
The event is designed for interaction as visitors were
encouraged to interact with the participants by asking students to
talk about their projects.
"This is a lively and rewarding activity that many of our student-athletes participate in, and over the years have enjoyed being a part of the event," said Dr. Lance Jasitt, TTU assistant athletics director for academics. "Not only is it a chance for them to develop a project that is out-of-the-ordinary, but it also provides an opportunity for them to interact with visitors to the Festival, to talk about their projects, and their experiences as both a student and a student-athlete."

There is probably no better way to enjoy delicious summer foods than roasting them on your well-loved barbecue grill. Enjoy the taste of summer even more by pairing your dishes with awesome V2 Cigs Flavors.
One great thing about grilling is that you do not actually need to have the skills of a gourmet chef just to prepare a tasty meal that you, your family and some friends could eat.
V2 Menthol With Tacos
The main attraction of a taco is the meat. Roast whatever your choice of meat is and serve it hot off the grill on the table where taco trimmings are arranged for self-serving. Taco trimmings could be chopped tomato, shredded lettuce, limes, salsa, sour cream, chili, cheese and more.
Make your taco night more exciting by vaping V2 Cigs flavors, particularly V2 Menthol. This flavor will definitely cool you down with its refreshing minty goodness especially after downing some really spicy tacos.
You could even spread the goodness that V2 offers by providing your guests with V2Cigs disposable ecigarettes. The 400-puff disposable 5-pack is $29.95 while the 10-pack is $54.95. Zig-Zag 200-puff disposables are now offered at special price cuts so you could have some great treats for your guests; 5-pack is $17.95 and 10-pack is $27.95. If you use any of our coupons, you can save 10% on all flavors at v2 ecigs.
Menthol is one of the most popular V2 ecigs flavors. It comes in 0-2.4% nicotine strength and spring green colored cartridges. Its flavor profile is similar to Salem, Kool, Marlboro Menthol, etc.
V2 Sahara With Spiedes
Spiedes is a dish that might not be well known to many, but it will certainly make the barbecue night truly delicious. These are actually sandwiches with grilled beef, chicken, pork or lamb meat fillings. The chinks of meet may be grilled on skewers and then served with white bread.
V2 Sahara, according to the V2 team, will most certainly complement the simple, but appetizing meat sandwich. Sahara offers rich middle-eastern blend of tobacco. It is also available in 5 nicotine strengths. Cartridges come in desert tan shade. Its flavor profile is similar to Kent, Camel, Merit, American Spirit and European varieties.
V2 Red With Churrasco
Churracso is simply a good steak that is ideal for any backyard barbecue. Buy some skirt steak, marinade it with your homemade sauce.
V2 Red is the classic American tobacco taste similar to the flavor profile of Marlboro, Pall Mall, Basic, Winston, Doral, Chesterfield and Lucky Strike. Available in 5 nicotine strengths, these cartridges in patriotic red shade will deliver slightly sweet Virginia tobacco.
V2 Cola With Chicken Wings
Chicken Wings are awesome as finger foods while watching a good game or hanging out with family and friends. It is also a great main course for your BBQ night. V2 Cola will be the perfect complement to your spicy chicken wing. It will sparkle in your mouth like the real sweet and crisp cola.
V2 Green Tea Menthol With Shrimp Kabobs
Grill some shrimp and fennel with rendered flavors from fresh citrus marinade. Kabobs are very easy to make and quick to cook. Pair it with V2 Cigs Green Tea Menthol. Refreshing mint is paired with the soothing green tea flavor. It will cleanse your palate and make it ready for dessert.
Do Not Forget The Side Dishes And The Drinks
Barbecues will not be complete without the side dishes. With no side dishes, grilled foods will taste fine, but would not be thrilling to eat.
You could toss some Caesar salad. You may also look for a recipe for your grilled salad. Do not forget the corn, which is plenty during summer. Keep the husks while grilling. Serve it with butter or margarine. Serve plenty of beers or some pre-mixed cocktails.

On the Street….Another Linen 3-pc Suit, Milan
CommentsClose comment
20 comments
Oh dear, why is everyone complaining about the pant length? It's perfect, in fact it's the focal point of the whole outfit, those shoes are taken to new levels with that peek of ankle, beautiful, bold use of brown, excellent hair/beard action too…the whole pic reminds me of that (almost) antique beige italian suit you featured last year…
I'm baffled that people think this is an acceptable substitute for wearing a tie. If you're going with a 3pc. suit, why would you then bend over backwards to casual it up? And why do some people think that buttoning one's shirt up all the way like Dilbert looks 'relaxed'? I guess if he added a pocket protector, these folks would start making JFK-on-the-beach comparisons! This man needs a tie and a pocket square; a well-chosen tie could convey fun and relaxation a lot better than this Ahmedinejad-style move.
I wish he wore a tie or something on his neck. Too much brown with nothing to contrast it with leaves it feeling incomplete. But great find, nonetheless.
love the colour.
he's gorgeous. how many times a day can one fall in love?
The white shirt makes the brown suit sing–as Ronald Reagan practiced to great effect. And a constructed linen suit looks much sharper than some of the unconstructed ones I've seen flopping around.
I love a linen suit.
Oops he forgot his socks.
love this, but i hate the blockbuster backdrop ;)
I didn't know Dennis Miller went to Italy … :)
Huuuuuuuuuuuge linen fan, and I love a brown suit too, so this is pretty much a "go get one of these made" photos (just with longer pants … )
Does anybody know who made this suit?
to me this man has style. first, he decided NOT to wear a tie and then button his shirt all the way to the top. second, linen is a beautiful fabric and that's a pretty cool colour. third, he's NOT wearing socks…YIPPPEE! this man scores the big one my fashion checklist!! he's understated, current, and looking good.
he's a cutie, non? pants are short in europe now?
I don't like very much brown colour, but with Robert all colours are ok!!!
Beautiful linen suite and white shirt gives a lightness point. No tie is a good choice. Short pants are very cool (please read dandy).
I love the look, but undo the top shirt button, and add some socks for this one.
does anyone have a suggestion on where to find a cool 3-piece linen suit like this one? most linen suits i've seen are standard-type colors – khaki, white, light/pastel colors. i like the rich darker brown color…
It's not easy to look that casual in a 3-pc.
I think he needs the pants in a bigger size. I like the old fashion suit look. All the guys look good. No matter what ;)
problem is not with the pant or sleeves but with the fabric

Where's the beef? Japanese taste buds dictate processing methods
Thanks to the hotel restaurant menu scandal, even food retailers' product descriptions have come under scrutiny. Internet mall Rakuten received the biggest black eye, though it appears to have been for a genuine mistake and not because of a planned deception. To celebrate its baseball team's Japan Series victory, Rakuten held a bargain sale that marked some prices down as much as 77 percent, but in several cases the markdowns were carried out so sloppily that a whole digit was lost. For instance, an A5-grade, 550-gram "steak set" that normally sells for ¥18,400 was marked down to ¥1,000, which is a lot more than 77 percent.
The sale price was supposed to be ¥10,000, but somehow one of the zeroes didn't make the transition. Rakuten received lots of complaints and had to apologize again (having already suffered the same mistake over boxes of cream puffs) and fork out refunds, but anyone who knows anything about Japanese beef prices should have realized that ¥1,000 for Tosa-bred wagyu (Japanese beef) had to be an error.
Increased scrutiny, in fact, has revealed that many indications for beef, whether sold in restaurants or in stores, while not being technically deceptive are less then forthcoming. Aera reports that one Hokkaido beef wholesaler has been cited for misrepresenting its wares, calling some of its items "beef" when it should be labeled "processed beef" (kako-niku).
The closer attention to wording was probably fallout from the menu scandal, in which Osaka's Shin-Hankyu Hotel was found to be at fault for listing processed beef as "beef steak," which it is not. The Kintetsu Hotel restaurant, awarded a star by Michelin, sells processed beef as wagyu steak for a whopping ¥6,300. Even Takashimaya department store's "beef filets" were found to be processed. A steak or filet is a cut of meat that has not been changed in any way, but many meat sellers take cheaper cuts of beef and inject them with fat to give them the marbled effect that Japanese people prefer.
In the West, the adjective "lean," which implies less fat, is considered a positive attribute for beef, but wagyu is characteristically streaked with fat, which means it has a richer flavor and is more tender. Generally speaking, the beef that Americans, Australians and Europeans eat is considered by Japanese to be tough and difficult to chew. Thanks to improvements in feed grains in the early 90s, American producers developed softer beef for the Japanese market, which is why so many fast food chains prefer using cheaper USA beef.
Most Australia beef sold in Japan has been processed, meaning that fat has been added. Some store cuts that look like steak may even have been "molded" (seikei). Different pieces of meat are "glued" together to make what looks like a steak and then injected with fat. A friend of ours who once had a job promoting "Aussie Beef" in Japan said the joke among his Australian colleagues was that "Japanese really don't like the taste of beef," since to Australians real beef is chewy and has no fat.
It should be noted that the reason beef is chewy is because the cattle is more muscular, in other words healthier than cattle that has more fat. Australian cattle are typically raised on the range where they eat grass, while in Japan and America the cows are penned up and fed grain (and lots of antibiotics to fight the infections that such a diet gives rise to). Also, range-raised beef is not as susceptible to BSE (mad cow disease).
Restaurants and retailers are required by law to indicate that their meat is processed, but the print tends to be tiny and obscure. This could cause problems, however, since ingredients used to process the fat can include dairy and soy products, which many people are allergic to. Parents of at-risk children know to look for the fine print, but restaurants are supposed to ask customers if they have any food allergies when people call on the phone for takeout. If the person says yes, then "real" beef will be substituted for the usual processed kind.
In stores, however, it's quite easy to determine which meat is real and which is processed without having to squint. Just look at the price. According to Asahi Shimbun, one kilogram of unprocessed grade A3 (highest: A5) Japanese sirloin is at least ¥5,000 per kilogram, whereas one kilogram of processed sirloin is between ¥1,400 and ¥2,000. Seikei cuts of meat are only ¥700-¥800 per kg. What's interesting is that while fat-injection has been a common practice since the early 1980s, it was always thought of mainly as an economic measure. The purpose was to make beef affordable on an everyday level, but the Asahi reports that many restaurants now say that their customers prefer the taste of cheaper processed beef to more expensive genuine cuts of beef, even when that genuine beef is sufficiently marbled.
