Not everyone is lining up to praise this film; I recommend a more nuanced review, like that of Emmanuel Levy, which notes that while its a visual feast, Life of Pi falls short of being a masterpiece.
Neither do I think this movie will win best picture -- good chance it will be nominated, but I think (just a projection) the award will come down to between Les Mes. and Argo.
Finally, I'm curious -- which movie do you think should've beat out the Artist?

maybe Chum Chum thinks about 'Hugo' but imho 'The Artist' is the best for last year..

Chum Chum, you are right in my opinion. The movie is not that great but everyone seems to be lining up to say what a great accomplishment it is. I wish that this movie could be judged purely on it's merits without the book as a reference (Lee get's credit for bringing this unfilmable book to screen). In truth, the Life of Pi falls way short of being a great film. BTW - I loved the book and hate when people say the obvious, "the book was better than the movie" line. I didn't want it to be as good as the book or "true to the book". I just wanted it to be entertaining.

I think is a great movie and a great adaptation. Ang Lee worked the visual part incredible well and the subject of faith too. It has heart and wonderful effects. The Academy should recognize that.

Or it's just made for people who enjoy artfully made movies.
Nov 18 - 12:21 PM
Agreed. It's okay to like Beasts of the Southern Wild (to use an example from this year) and others, if it's your cup of tea. Sorry if people conflate that with movies "for the academy."

Not all movies which has Indian theme needs to be considered as Slumdog millionaire

What on earth are you talking about? OF COURSE IT NEEDS TO BE!!!

I guess you didn't notice I said Forres Gump and The Artist aswell hell I'll throw in Dances With Wolves....read what I actually said. And the theme of Life of Pi has little to do with India either

Not gonna lie, Slumdog Millionaire was on my mind a lot while watching this movie, and afters I kept thinking it reminded me of 127 Hours for some reason. This movie is a Danny Boyle movie expect not at all.
Nov 24 - 09:44 PM
I haven't seen Life of Pi, but I believe the father in the movie also appears in Slumdog Millionaire

No. Only the guy who plays elder Pi plays a cop in Slumdog...Irrfan Khan

By announcer Roger Huston's call, Bambi was leading when the deer suddenly gave up interest and left the track.
WASHINGTON, Pa. — Spectators who came to watch horses at a western Pennsylvania racetrack got a surprise this week when three deer got onto the course first and beat the horses to racing.
According to KDKA-TV, a race was about to begin Wednesday night at the Meadows Racetrack in Washington County when the deer jumped onto the track.
Race announcer Roger Huston didn't miss a beat. He began calling the race as it unfolded, saying things like: "As they race down the track, Bambi has the lead. Here comes Rudolph from the outside."
VIDEO: Announcer calls the 'race'
The deer ran fast but kept changing directions. At one point, they appeared headed to the paddock, where the horses were being held.
Several minutes into the show, the deer decided to leave the track to the horses.
Huston says Bambi won the race.

Below is the week 16 offensive line breakdown for the Pittsburgh Steelers loss to the Cincinnati Bengals this past Sunday. Not a great showing in this game from the group as a whole as they allowed four sacks and several pressures in the game.

Fitbit updated to work with Bluetooth 4.0 on Galaxy S 4
We spent a lot of hands-on time with the Fitbit fitness trackers and application this year and came away liking the devices. One of things that a lot of people don't like about Fitbit is the fact that the activity tracking bracelet doesn't work with every Android device out there. One of the very popular new smartphones that Fitbit wasn't compatible with is the new Samsung Galaxy S 4.

Saw this the other night...funny and terrifyingly true. Glen Beck is what you get when you merge an ex-alcoholics brain with fundamentalist religion and fascist idealism. Its pretty irresponsible to give this guy airtime.
Shawnkells April 7, 2009 5:12:37 PM CEST
Anyone who could take BECK seriously with his weird crying jags, should be considered DANGEROUS!
Thesaint April 7, 2009 2:43:20 PM CEST
Misdirection written all over it. When these type of people do a uturn, and they will lets not forget their faces. Media whores one and all.

Notice how not a single one of the three posters below me respond with anything substantive or factual-- just misdirected anger and resentment.

Lollicup Perhaps the most bizarre, randomest thing. Here's the story. Plastic is only accepted with a $10 minimum. Smart me didn't bring my wallet. Just a Cup was less than $4. Stack to get up to $10? No problem. Add in a random snack pack - $5. After Tax Total: $9.48. Righteous. Not going to get another cup… Potato Twist? $1.84? Alright. "How Spicy?" Yeah, it's spiced. Took a Medium; it has that nice color to it.
So Bizarre. Not the bad kind, but definately interesting.

Our Readers' Favorite Food Discoveries of 2011
When we asked our readers to share the best ingredients they discovered in 2011, their answers ranged far and wide: Some were simple, like trying dried beans for the first time. Others were less familiar and even exotic. (Prickly ash! Sweet potato leaves! Fancy hot sauce!) And then there was one luxurious ingredient that got an extra amount of love, clocking in with more mentions than anything else — can you guess what it is? (We put it at the top of the list below.)
As we head into the holidays, it is always exciting to discover new ingredients and foods, whether for gift-giving or for the sake of trying something new. Come take a look at our readers' food discoveries from 2011.
All Things Truffle
• It's a tie between truffle salt and this really nice basting oil that our grocery sells. I use truffle salt in odd places, like burgers (for a little extra umami kick). - Melissa - Suburbanitis
• Truffle salt. Toasted onion powder. - manjar
• Truffle salt for me too! - SuperDaniYell
• Truffle oil. I could bathe in it. - AdelineA
• Truffle butter for me... on pasta... mmm. - travelingpea
More from The Kitchn on truffle salt: • What Is a Great Way to Use Black Truffle Salt?
• Pantry Must Have
Fruits & Vegetables
• I discovered sweet potato leaves at the farmers market. Like spinach but more tender, with a pronounced sweet flavor, these leaves were a complete obsession for me in my exploration of dark leafy greens. I loved them and can't wait until next year to eat more! - KateSelner
• It's such a simple thing, but this year I've become enamored of shallots. Great oniony flavor, delicious raw or cooked, and I can generally cut them without crying! - srgallender
• Beans, seriously, I never cooked them myself before. - JudiAU
• Wapato - Camille S
• Avocados... I put them on everything and discovered how much I love them this year! - caralovesyou
• Nopales... yum. - brittanykate
• Beets!! I always hated the deeply pickled ones that always showed up on the table at family gatherings and stained my fingers pink. This year, a friend suggested that I try roasting them - and i'm in love! Also, it turns out those pickled ones are pretty great, too! - Dublin09
• Leeks, kohlrabi, Jerusalem artichokes. And I have a persimmon at home that's about ready to eat. - therufs
More from The Kitchn on some of these goodies: • The Best Way to Keep Cut Avocado Fresh!
• Five Ways to Eat: Beets
• Seasonal Spotlight: Jerusalem Artichokes, a.k.a. Sunchokes
Salts, Herbs & Spices
• Adobo spice - TheObsessiveCompulsiveBaker
• Smoked paprika. Never been happier to hop on a bandwagon. It's just great. - cmcinnyc
• I got to plant a huge herb garden that's still thriving, so just the never-ending used for fresh herbs. Makes me so sad for once we get a freeze here. Drying them won't be quite the same. - jmorri26
• Espelette pepper. - Yuri - @ChefPandita
• Dry mustard, I stumbled upon it this year. I add it to the onions/celery mix while that sautees and it creates a depth of flavor and just a little zing. Then I proceed with whatever I was making, soup mix, stew etc. - lenzai
• Adobo spice blend! Makes everything delicious. - marmite
• MSG. I know, but it makes certain delicious things SO MUCH MORE DELICIOUS. - Kate H.
• Fennel pollen. - dawnie
• Umami powder. All natural flavor enhancer made out of shiitake mushrooms. Makes every Asian dish so much more amazing. - UWSer21
• Berbere. Like paprika but browner-tasting. - andypucko
• One high-brow, one low-brow: chickpea flour and liquid smoke. - piccola
• Himalayan Pink Salt - denisepassarini
• Cooking lavender! - vonlet24
• After travelling to Turkey this year, I discovered Nar Eksisi — Pomegranate Sour. It's so versatile! I also finally bought some Za'atar spice — it's wonderful on salmon. - njparr
• For my husband, it was definitely chipotle (he just moved to Texas from England) and for me, probably sesame oil. Now my stir fry almost tastes Asian! - Sarah Cx
• Za'atar! Fabulous spice blend — good in (or on) everything from eggs to flat breads to meats. - truenorth
• Slap ya mama. - loislane
• A sweet rub from McCormicks that has cinnamon in it. - Angela Watts
• Just returned from Bhutan and discovered a dried spice which grows wild there and what they call Local Pepper. It's also known as Prickly Ash. I came home with three bags of it! - tigress
Spice resources from The Kitchn: • Quick Guide to Every Herb and Spice in the Cupboard
• Chia seeds! They are so much fun! We add them to our Greek yogurt with some honey or ripe persimmon puree, then let it sit overnight until it forms a super thick and rich-tasting yogurt! Creamy, delicious, and packs an extra fiber punch! - babygrace
• Chia seeds. - Yuri - @ChefPandita
• Pearl barley! It's a great substitute for rice and it's locally grown, low GI and cheaper! (I live in Scotland.) - creativevoyage
Sauces, Vinegars & amp; Oils
• Hot sauce, like this one, and also the citrus one. - Kate (NC)
• A certain brand of hot sauce. I always used it at the Mexican restaurant, but it never occurred to me to buy a bottle for home until recently. Now it goes on everything! - nwatrous
• This REALLY strong pressed garlic oil I found at a specialty store. Just a dash or 2 makes everything taste so amazingly fragrant and garlicky!- jmorri26
• The garlicky herb-infused oil is like magic - I use it on roasted potatoes, chicken, steamed veggies...anything that could use a little extra love. - Melissa - Suburbanitis
• Roasted garlic grapeseed oil. It's great for roasted potatoes and homemade croutons. - Hilaro
• I always knew about it but never knew how great it was on EVERYTHING: Balsamic vinegar!!!!! - cccb12
• Colavita champagne vinegar, and fresh basil from my herb garden. - arielleb
Baking Ingredients
• I am finding new uses for Trader Joe Almond Meal, pretty much anything with flour can be improved. - Kate (NC)
• Coconut flour and oil. - Yuri - @ChefPandita
• Almond flour. - ellystapes
Meat & Seafood
• Fresh mussels (I moved to the coast). - ellystapes
• Really high quality fish. I pay a lot more but it is worth it. - JudiAU
• This year, I learned how easy mussels were to make at home! Who knew? (Well, I suppose plenty of other people already knew.) They'll be a more frequent menu addition now. - misplacedtexan
• After 20 years of a veggie diet, I've rediscovered the goodness of good local pork! Mmmm..... Bacon. - Hmj
Dairy & Soy
• Yellow miso and butter. I could eat spoonfuls of the golden goodness. - mstesla
• Eggs! Okay, so I didn't just discover eggs, but I've definitley been learning the versitility of eggs over the past year. - alicelost
• Just found buttermilk for use as an ingredient outside of baking. I love it. - scotchncoffee

Yuzu kosho. I discovered it when I started cooking with the donabe. I was inspired by the cookbook, Japanese Hot Pots which I read about here. It is a big ingredient in their second cookbook, The Japanese Grill.
Speculoos (Biscoff) spread!! It must be what heaven tastes like...
Homemade ricotta cheese. So easy to make and so much better than store bought.
Aleppo pepper: I can't believe how fast I am going through my container of it. Love it in Smitten Kitchen's cornbread or just sprinkled on sauteed kale.
Farro perlato: While a little pricey I love having a grain with all the substance and chew of barley and brown rice but that cooks in only 25 minutes. It makes some of my most mundane meals seem fancy.
I am shocked MSG made it to the list. After all the bad health effects and the desire to promote MSG-free food, MSG really shouldn't have made it to this list. It's a chemical, people!!
Sriracha!! It is the most delicious hot sauce and it makes everything (probably even ice cream) yummy. And Stilton Blue Cheese is my new cheese lover.
Ditto Sriracha.
@KatiePew, have you seen The Oatmeal's homage to Sriracha?
Many foods contain glutamate, which provides an umami flavor. Yes, many people get sick from it (it gives my mom horrible migraines), but it exists naturally in so many foods it is hard to avoid. Also, I remember a chef-friend telling me that his professor at the Culinary Institute taught them that to make true Chinese food, you have to add MSG.
I always hated olives my whole life and then my boyfriend made me try a green one (picholine) and now I crave them ALL.THE.TIME! I get a HUGE container from the olive bar at the supermarket every week. i <3 olives!
Sriracha and mussels have made 2011 infinitely more awesome!
Oh, Biscoff spread for sure! I first saw it in October in the Biscoff store during our San Francisco vacation, but I didn't buy any because we were doing carry-ons only. I love all things Biscoff, so I thought I was doing myself a favor. Then I saw that the World Market up the street from my house carried it. A couple of weeks ago, I discovered that Fresh & Easy also carries it. Oh, it's so tasty.
And this isn't food, but it is food related: I bought my first smoker this past May, and I love it! I want to try smoking some oats so I can try to remake Ditty's Irish Smoked Oatcakes that I love so much! Everything I've smoked has turned out awesome, and Fall Dinner was built around a wonderful smoked pork loin. I'm glad that Phoenix's weather is almost always prime for smoking!
Pomegranate Molasses. Makes incredible glazes for grilled meats, lovely drizzled on almost anything for a sweet/tart hit.
If MSG is a 'bad chemical', so is salt. Why is it ok that truffle salt made the list?
For me, Lucques olives.
Popcorn + Sriracha + parmesan.
(Add the Sriracha to melted butter before pouring it over the popcorn.)
You're welcome.
I would have to say caramelized white chocolate. As well as high quality products in all categories... What was I thinking before, buying margarine?!
Wow, Kris0218, thank you for that suggestion!
Roasted radishes! I've never been much of a radish fan until I tried them roasted as recommended by The Kitchn commenters.
And also harissa. Heard about it, figured I'd like it but didn't get around to trying it until a couple of months ago. So good!
truffle salt, fig vinegar, buratta all are on my very long list.
and homemade cheese! i can't believe how easy some of this really is.
Also, @ATN654, MSG isn't a simple salt - it's a processed chemical: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monosodium_glutamate#Production_and_chemical_properties
It can make people quite sick, causing migraines, bloating, indigestion (and all that that entails - I won't paint you a picture, but trust that it ain't pretty, heh.), chest pains, an insatiable thirst that lasts for hours...
It's commonly used in cheaply produced, processed foods, such as frozen dinners or jarred gravy/sauces, because it's more affordable than using real spices to enhance flavor.
Hahaha, yay! Mine caused the most controversy (I said MSG in the original post). Mostly I was joking because I knew it would push some people's buttons, but not really joking, because I do use MSG occasionally when cooking for myself.
For what it's worth, I do not have any adverse reactions to it, and would not serve MSG-y food to anyone else without warning them first, of course.
Kris0218, it's a sensitivity for a small portion of the population. Yes, it can do all those bad things to people, IF they are sensitive to it. Most people aren't, as indicated by the numerous foods sold that have MSG. I just disagree that it's bad because it's a 'chemical'. Everything is a chemical when you get right down to it.
Ha, sorry - I didn't mean to sound snarky, just informative! You're totally right, it does only affect people with a sensitivity to it. (Which my father and I both have, so I'm extremely wary of it, obvs.) And I agree that plenty of things are labelled as evil when they're really not. I just was pointing out why people have a different reaction to it than things like truffle salt. :)
I haven't cooked with it yet, but I had it on a taco at Big Star in Chicago and it's AMAZING!
Also know as Corn Smut, but in 1989 the James Beard Foundation tried to 're-brand' it as the Mexican Truffle.
Well, though not a food item, I finally learned this year that the world won't end if I don't follow a recipe exactly. So liberating!
Delicata Squash
Ingredients - za'atar, avocado, cremini mushrooms, butternut squash, kale, flax, whole wheat flour
Techniques - cooking bacon in the oven, poaching an egg
I recently introduced my sweet husband to real wintergreen winter-berries on a recent hike around our woods...so delicate and refreshing if you don't mind a quick forage.
"...to make true Chinese food, you have to add MSG." I suppose that's true of most Chinese restaurant/takeout food, unfortunately. Mainly, MSG is used to disguise poor quality ingredients.
vanilla bean paste. i use it in everything sweet and it's so lovely.
Ponzu sauce. Soy sauce with a lemony undertaste. Brightens everything.
Nigella Lawson has a fabulous holiday cake...search for The Clementine Cake...which relies on almond meal, no flour, if memory serves. Her recipe instructs you to grind your own raw almonds to a powdery consistency, but why bother when you can buy it already ground?
I discovered za'atar in a Nigella cookbook years ago, but only this year did I realize two things: I only REALLY love the versions with lots of sumac in them - Penzey's is the best. Also, popcorn with olive oil and za'atar is my new favorite healthy thing.
Now, however, I'm going to make a sriracha and parmesan batch of popcorn very soon.
I discovered Siracha, when I married a girl from Thailand. It is a marvelous spicy/sweet blend that is unique. fabulous on egg rolls, or any dim sum.
Fish Sauce!
Lemon Olive Oil
Kai Lan - my new favorite green!
Himalayan Pink Salt
Meat cuts: tri-tip (on the smoker), bottom round roast (for rare roast beef from the oven).
Fruits and veggies: kale, kale, kale. I love that we're still eating this fresh from the garden in mid-December in Ohio.
Spices: roasted anything (cumin, curry, paprika).
And homemade pasta has now completely replaced store-bought in our house.
Wine: PORTUGAL!! It's the new Argentina/Chile. (I know it's not food, but it's hard to eat without it.)
"Also, @ATN654, MSG isn't a simple salt - it's a processed chemical: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monosodium_glutamate#Production_and_chemical_prope"
from the linked article:
"Currently, most of the world production of MSG is by bacterial fermentation in a process similar to wine, vinegar, yogurt and even chocolate. During fermentation, selected bacteria (coryneform bacteria) cultured with ammonia and carbohydrates from sugar beets, sugar cane, tapioca or molasses, excrete amino acids into the culture broth from where L-glutamate is isolated."
I'm with ATN654, the MSG hate is kind of ridiculous. If it makes you sick, that's too bad, but don't expect the world to hate it just because you do. Peanuts are capable of straight up killing some people, but unless I'm cooking for someone with that allergy, I'mma use peanuts like crazy, because they are delicious. If you don't like, spare me the lecture, since I 100% don't care.
- good olive oil (doing your research & paying a bit more is infinitely worth the results)
- kiwi berries
- pink salts (usually = more minerals)
- beet greens are like unevolved chard (in the same family) = good sautee addition
- adding flax seed to smoothies
- my first crockpot
@ pleioven : so happy you've joined the arugula bandwagon!
OMG, shut up about MSG. Most people have no side effect. Those that do: avoid it, just like anyone else with an allergy avoids a particular food. Just because one person needs to avoid peanuts or gluten or soy doesn't mean everyone has to. All foods are made up of chemical compounds, just because it's manufactured, doesn't mean we shouldn't eat it.....if that were true we'd have to cut out all fermented and processed foods, including beer, bread, cheese, yogurt, etc.
We'd also have to give up on all medicines, from those as simple as aspirin to those as critical as insulin.
Ugh. So tired of the MSG righteousness.
Kefir. I'd passed it in the grocery store from time to time, but I tried it for the first time this year. I can't believe I left it sitting in the store for this long. Also, black truffle butter. Good in pasta, and (in my opinion, anyway), very good in mashed potatoes.
where do i find coconut flour?
As to Trader Joe's Almond Meal, its lack of almond flavor (or smell) has led me to distrust the quality of TJ's products in general. I suspect the essential oils of the ground almonds were extracted and sold separately.
I can't believe whole grains didn't make the list? I'm using them lots this year (mostly as breakfast porridge and in soups) and LOOOOVE them. Favorites are steel-cut oats, millet, kamut, and spelt berries. I also tried amaranth (not a favorite, but edible), wheat bulgur, toasted kasha (a little strong for me), and cracked wheat berries. So healthy tasting and lovely to chew on. And in the crockpot? Dead easy.
I also hopped on the smoked Spanish paprika bandwagon and never looked back. I've still got to buy some dry mustard. I often use prepared mustard in sauces.
Beans were also in heavy rotation this year, especially dried beans. They are surprisingly more tasty than canned (though I will still use those in a pinch).
Homemade popcorn (we have a stir crazy electric popcorn popper - works like magic!) has been in HEAVY rotation as our go-to snack. It's probably a good thing the popper is a bit hard to clean, or we would likely overindulge. And bulk popcorn is so cheap!
Cardamom. I discovered it in Eastern and Asian foods other than cookies a few years ago. Indians eat the seeds as an after-dining digestive. Delicious that way, too. Wonderful in tea as the Afghans prepare it. Marvelous in ice cream with pistachio. I'm in love.
Oh wow. I have got to find umami powder - I love pretty much anything umami. (And that goes back to the MSG! Yum.)
My biggest food discovery was... cooking. Yup, 2011 was the year I actually started cooking (and reading Kitchn daily!). Whereas before I was afraid to turn the oven off, now I pour over cookbooks, the food section in the paper, blogs... learning how to actually make my own food instead of eating processed crap or yet another sandwich was extremely liberating.
Also, garlic. I add it to practically everything.
I discovered Beast Heart. Always something I avoided because there are certain parts of an animal I couldn't bring myself to eat but as encouraged through a forum I frequent called 'Wildfood - foodies gone wild' (lovely foodie like minded people from the UK and some from the continent and even further afield). I have lights to try when I can pluck up the courage and nothing on this earth can get me to try tripe.
Also discovered using Pearl Barley instead of rice for many dishes - would much rather have a barley risotto than a rice one now.
I second the pomegranate molasses - fantastic on grilled eggplant with feta, toasted pine nuts and mint.
Also a polish spice blend called Perenika. Basically a gingerbread spice, but there's something in it that takes it to a whole other level. I have Polish friends bring it and add it to everthing - pies, apple butter, etc. Does anyone out there know exactly what it is?
My new discovery this year are chia seeds and nutritonal yeast. Also, using real butter on white bread is amazing, so one can say that's my new discovery as well :)
My parents shared a full CSA basket this summer so it was fun to introduce them to all these new vegies each week this summer- okra, brussel sprouts, delicata squash, kohlrabi, eggplant, garlic scapes, parsnips, bok choy.
Some they liked, some they will probably never eat again. It's amusing to me that my teen boys have eaten these vegies for many years, but my 60+year old parents are only trying them for the first time!
On a side note, because of our vast amounts available each week this summer in the CSA, I discovered how much I loved cornmeal fried okra dusted with cajun seasoning. I know it was completely awful for me but I had to use it up each week right?
My biggest food discovery this year: tom yum-flavored dried seaweed sold in garishly colored packets, frangipane in tarts and red drum fish.
And the clementine cake mentioned further up (Nigella Lawson's recipe) I make it every year around this time. It is really delicious!
Sunchokes / Jerusalem artichokes.
I liked them a few years back but recently had them again and now I want more!
Wow, @JackieDee30. Please don't tell people to 'shut up'. It's pretty rude.
I already said I wasn't trying to be snarky. I have MSG products in my house! My boyfriend eats ranch dressing with MSG in it like it's going out of style! I'm not maligning anything - I was just explaining why people can get in a tizzy about MSG vs. other salt/spices. I AGREE that people get all fussy about 'chemicals' when really everything's a chemical. Sheesh. I've never gotten caught in the silly frays on AT. I guess it was my turn. :p
Gochujang. Skip the "medium" and go straight to the "hot". This stuff is giving my beloved sambal oelek a run for its money in my kitchen.
I love this post. So many things I need to find and try. For me, fuyu persimmons were the biggest eye opener.
Kris0218, I wasn't telling you to shut up. I meant America in general. I hear people blame every symptom they've ever had on specific foods all the time, rarely with evidence to the fact and it drives me crazy. I was just venting. Sorry you took it personally.
Black Currants!
My dear friend from Scotland turned me onto Black Currant Jam with Clotted Cream on Plain Scones--typical Scottish fare. They are tart/sweet and delicious. I couldn't always find the jam in the grocery stores but found that my local berry farm has them. I canned my own. Some set up and some didn't. I used the sauce on everything but found it WONDERFUL with chocolate. My current favorite, Nutella with Black Currant Jam. Perfect adult PBJ!
Also, my son and I can't quit eating the peanut butter popcorn that was on The Kitchn's Blog a month ago. We also make it with Nutella. Sooo good. And the Parmesean popcorn listed above. On my Radar for the weekend!
chestnut flour
making cookies and cakes with chickpeas as a substitue for both flour and butter
homemade herb ice cream (especially pineapple mint, basil, and parsley)
pumpkin seed oil (on vanilla ice cream--delicious and weirdly alien looking)
Georgian cilantro sauce (similar to pesto, but much lighter and fresher tasting)
chocolate silken tofu pudding
Quince and elderflower jellies
greengage jam
fig chutney
truffle oil mixed in hummus... soooo great!

ST. JOHN | Some police chiefs are challenging a consultant's estimate of the contributions cities and towns must make to operate a consolidated E-911 system next year.
"St. John's is not a fair and equitable amount. The numbers are flawed," St. John Police Chief Fred Frego said during Thursday's advisory board meeting of police and fire chiefs overseeing the merger of community-based radio dispatch centers into a single countywide network mandated by state law.
Other police and fire chiefs agreed to have their municipal fiscal officers double-check the county's dollar amounts by next month before their communities will agree to sign an interlocal agreement binding them to E-911 payments for future years.
County officials announced last week they expect cities and towns to collectively contribute $6.6 million annually to help meet the payroll and outside services and supplies needed to respond to 450,000 calls to police and fire services. State and county funds would provide another $1.4 million.
The county hired the Merrillville accounting firm of Cender & Co. to examine how much cities and towns now spend on answering 911 calls to ensure it didn't include non-emergency service calls.
County officials estimate St. John's share of the cost will be $308,001 and Highland's to be $293,208.
St. John officials said that isn't even-handed because they only serviced 4,334 emergency calls in 2012. If the county's financial plan is put into place, that would result in St. John taxpayers being charged $71 per 911 call, while Highland, which fielded 11,839 emergency calls last year, would be charged less than $25 per call.
Frego said, "Some communities are being penalized for paying their dispatchers more than others."
Lake County Commissioner Roosevelt Allen,D-Gary, said, "We have to follow the state statute, which is based on your (tax) levy. We can't follow 911 traffic counts."
Other chiefs suggested that some communities either didn't understand what financial data they were being asked to provide Cender or may have misled the consultant.
Allen shot back, "You provided the numbers so if they are inaccurate, you provided the inaccuracies."
Steve Dalton, director of development for Cender, said, "We accepted your numbers as submitted. It follows how much you have spent over the last three years on 911.Sixteen of the 18 communities will be contributing less than the amount you are currently spending on all dispatch costs."

Today is the day – taxes are due by midnight tonight.
Usually, taxes are due on the April 15th, but it fell on a weekend this year, and the 16th is Emancipation Day in Washington, DC.
Coincidentally, today also marks National Tax Freedom Day, when the average American has earned enough in the year to be free of their tax burden.
That means it took 107 days to earn the money to pay their tax bills, making it 29% of their total income.

You may have learned all of the rumors from various social media outlets, well here is a quick update on the various rumors surrounding the Jacksonville Jaguars.
- WR Laurent Robinson has visited Jacksonville and is probably working on a deal. The Dallas Cowboys, San Diego Chargers, and the Arizona Cardinals are also interested.
- QB Chad Henne visited Jacksonville, but left without inking a deal. He went to visit the Seattle Seahawks afterward.
- DE Mario Williams has left Buffalo without signing a deal. The Jaguars were said to be one of the other places that he planned to visit, but Tania Ganguli said that it was untrue. Still, nobody knows what will happen.

Apple, Samsung CEOs to attend mediation ahead of upcoming patent case
Apple CEO Tim Cook and Samsung CEO Oh-Hyun Kwon have agreed to attend a mediation session by Feb. 19, about one month before the two tech titans are scheduled to return to the courtroom for yet another round of patent litigation.
2014 could be the year where they put all that shit behind them. Something I wonder if Apple could have done under Steve Jobs leadership.

Dish Seeking Disney Ad Deal for Hopper, Ergen Says
Dish Network chairman Charlie Ergen said he's still "cautiously optimistic" about reaching a long-term deal with Disney for ABC stations and ESPN and other cable channels, saying the satcaster is looking for a way to deliver ads to Hopper DVR customers that would make more money for the programmer.
At the same time, Ergen reiterated that if the two companies can't reach a satisfactory deal, he's willing to walk away.
"We're prepared to go either way," he said on Dish's third-quarter earnings call. While it would be a "short-term problem" to lose ESPN and other Disney channels, "long term it could make a lot of sense."
The companies have been in talks for months on an agreement that would cover carriage of cable networks including ESPN, Disney Channel and ABC Family, as well as ABC-owned stations in eight markets. The previous agreement, reached in 2005, expired Sept. 30.
SEE ALSO: Dish Subs Less Disgruntled in Q3, Helping Satcaster Beat Street
"There's not a particular timeline on it. It has to be done right, and it has to be done right long-term," Ergen said.
In the talks between Dish and Disney, both sides are "trying to look at where the technology is going" over the next several years, according to Ergen. Dish doesn't want to go back to Disney "to ask for permission... if there are different forms of distribution" that emerge, he said.
ABC and other broadcast networks have sued Dish over the Hopper DVR's AutoHop feature, which lets users automatically skip commercials, arguing that it violate copyrights and distribution agreements. Dish has won several legal victories so far, as courts have denied broadcasters' requests to shut down AutoHop.
Ergen claimed that what Dish is looking for from ABC and others is a way to deliver targeted ads to TV viewers -- an approach, he said, that could make the broadcasters more money.
"Hopper can target commercials to customers in a better way," he said. "Can we get a relationship where we can experiment with the Hopper, improve the experience for the consumer in a way that makes Disney more money -- that's really what we are trying to achieve."
But, while Ergen said Dish wants to "make Disney our best relationship," he also said that the satcaster will move on if it can't work out a pact. "You don't marry everybody you date," he said, adding, "Disney is a very pretty girl."
"Disney, historically, has not been one of our best relationships," Ergen said, "and that's my fault."
Meanwhile, Dish last week said it would shut down the 300 remaining Blockbuster video stores in the U.S. by January, and shut down the DVD-by-mail business. The wind-down will eliminate 2,800 jobs. The company took $21 million charge in the third quarter related to the closures and estimated future losses of $15 million to $30 million associated with shutdown of the Blockbuster domestic business.
"Blockbuster was a poor strategy on our part," Ergen said on the call, noting that Blockbuster didn't obtain streaming-video options the way competitors like Netflix or Redbox did.
Asked on the call what Dish plans to do with its considerable wireless spectrum holdings, Ergen didn't tip his hand, saying the satcaster could pursue any number of options. He said a Dish buildout of the spectrum or a sale of the spectrum were not "high probability," saying the more likely path will be some kind of partnership.
Ergen didn't rule out a potential acquisition of T-Mobile: "I think acquiring a company, selling our company, merging, partnering -- those are all part of the 'optionality' we have."
On the topic of over-the-top TV, Ergen has previously said Dish is in a position to roll out such a service -- if it becomes a market reality. He said Dish has not had any discussions with Intel Media, which had intended to debut an Internet TV service this year but now is looking to sell the business or team up with another company to launch it.
"We've talked to virtually every programmer about OTT," he said. "I would say it's going to happen at some point in time... but most programmers have been hesitant to make such a dramatic change."

When I go to the gym alone, I think I scare people. This isn't some meathead joke about how big I am…
I'm completely comfortable with myself. When you add that too loving the gym as much as I do, you get a really happy Zach working out haha
My constant head bobbing, dancing, and lip syncing in between sets really puzzles people.
Why is he so happy? The men are usually quite homophobic but also intimidated in a way.
The women usually smile or they act like I don't exist lol I'm not jumping all over the place like a mad person, putting people at a safety risk but I enjoy my life. ESPECIALLY WHEN I LIFT ;)
I just wanted to share an experience with the fit-fam…does anyone else have similar experiences or comments?!

MIAMI (AP) - Raymond Cintron scored 11 of his 14 points in the second half and Shawn Jones hit a jumper with 1 second left to help Middle Tennessee turn a 17-point halftime deficit into a 66-64 win over Sun Belt Conference rival Florida International on Thursday night.
Cintron made 5 of 9 shots, including four from deep, and Marcos Knight chipped in 10 for Middle Tennessee (19-4, 11-1), which trailed 36-19 at the break after a 7 of 26 first-half shooting performance.
Middle Tennessee trimmed the deficit to 58-51 with 4:43 remaining before Cintron hit back-to-back 3-pointers and Knight converted two free throws to tie it 59-59.
Teams alternated buckets until Tymell Murphy of FIU (11-10, 6-6) tied it at 64-all with 26 seconds left to play.
Jones grabbed the offensive board after Knight missed a jumper with 5 seconds left, missed a layup, then grabbed his own rebound before hitting the game-winner.

Living the WELL Life
If you've ever cooked a sauce or gravy from scratch, you've likely used a thickener. Perhaps the best-known and most easily accessible thickening agent is cornstarch. Derived from the endosperm of corn and then fermented, cornstarch is highly processed and not particularly nutritious. Arrowroot, agar agar (or kanten), and kuzu are all more natural thickening agents that you can substitute for cornstarch. Which one you choose depends on what you'd like to make! Read on for a breakdown of where each of these starches comes from, what they're best used for, and what health benefits they offer. Read more

Lighten Up for Spring - by Christina Pirello
Truly warm days of spring and summer are a distant dream at the moment. The days are still cold and grey, the nights bordering on frigid…but there is a shift in the energy around us. You can feel it if you really pay attention. The sun feels a touch warmer; the buds more visible on tree branches; the ice seems a little less rigid and just a wee bit more inclined to melt.

Where Else Are You Going to Live? by Kenneth Dill
A wise man once said, "If you don't take care of your body…where else are you going to live?" No, it wasn't some comedian trying to get a laugh. It was Robert Pirello, and wiser words have never been spoken. He knows from personal experience as a man who has been to the pinnacle of fitness, running multiple marathons. He then faced severe osteoporosis with his body literally crumbling beneath him. And now, through years of research and diligence, he has regained his efficiently functioning body and once again lives in a healthy and happy body. Read more

Vicki, I'm a Carberry descendant and have done the whole Carberry clan. You have the incorrect Carberry as the father of Stephan Andrew. My gg grandfather was Amos Marion Carberry b. Oct 10 1839 d. feb 27 1923. He is buried in the Ogden Cemetery with Lucy.
I'd really like to talk to you about the Carberry line. Please email me at firstname.lastname@example.com or contact me in Guthrie at 293-9128.

Gilbert Moore
From "The Oklahoma Spirit of 17":
Son of Mr. and Mrs. G. L. Moore, Okemah, Okla., was born in Lynn County, Missouri, September 5, 1897, and educated in the Oklahoma schools. Enlisted from Hughes County, Oklahoma, with the National Guard in May, 1917, this later being Federalized. Was sent to Camp Bowie for training with Co. F, 142nd Infantry, 36th Division. Was sent to France in June, 1918, with the 36th Division, being advanced to Corporal. Was killed in the Meuse-Argonne battle October 18, 1918. No direct information from his Captain was received as to how he met his death, but a "Buddie" wrote that he was killed by a machine gun bullet while locating machine gun nests. This was and especially dangerous undertaking, and when volunteers were asked for he was one of those who feared nothing and was willing to risk all in order that an end might be reached in the horrible massacre that was taking place. The Croix de Guerre and one other French decoration was sent his father, and also a citation from General Pershing, commending the bravery of his son. It is natural that this lad should have enlisted and offered himself to his country, coming from a direct line of fighting men as he did. His father having enlisted in the Spanish-American War and fighting with the U. S. Infantry for 6 months. Corporal Moore was buried in the National Cemetery in France.

RE: Kay & Mary Catherine Montgomery
They may very well be my relatives. I thought that my gr. grandfather John McKinley and his twin brother George died in Ouray, but it could have been in Gunnison since they tried to farm there for a few years. There was also a daughter Mary about 12 years old who died about the same time (around 1890-1895). There were other relatives as well. So if you should see any Montgomerys or McKinleys, I would love to see them documented.
Thanks, Barb

RE: Kay & Mary Catherine Montgomery
Hi Vicki
Thanks, I would love to have the management of the Montgomery memorials. I hope to someday find the rest of the links for Kay & Mary Catherine which will then connect to my family's other memorials.
You do a great service for all of us who are working on our family histories. As I live in Oregon, I haven't had an opportunity to explore in CO as yet. There are some McKinleys there and more Montgomerys. By the way, Mary Catherine McKinley's father was Samuel Packwood McKinley, who died in Castleton CO in 1918. His brother John was the grandfather of Mabel and Nellie Griswold, so they were actually cousins (second, third, fourth--I can never figure that out).
Keep up the good work

Kay & Mary Catherine Montgomery
I do have a lot of information about the Montgomery family. My aunt was married to Kay & Mary's son, Kay Jr.
Andrew Montgomery was born in Ohio and died in Sapinero CO. His obit states that he died at the home of his son Kay. He leaves a wife Mary J Montgomery and two daughters, Mrs Henly (may be Hemmingway) of Colorado Springs and Mrs Bridges of Florence.
Kay was born 9/26/1853 in OH, died 2/6/1911 in Colville WA. He married Mary Catherine McKinley, born 9/29/1869, Ringgold IA, died 4/12/1912, Colville WA.(I don't know what cemetery-or even if buried in Colville)
Their children, besides Mildred and Frank, were:
Bruce b. 1/1895 Sapinero, d 6/19/1961 Nanimo BC
John b. 9/27/1897 Sapinero, d abt 1979 Tacoma WA
Milton b 7/24/1900 Sapinero d 11/7/1976 Paradise CA and his twin Samuel d 3/1992 Olympia WA
Kay Jr b 7/29/1906 Crawford CO, d 7/29/1970 Red Bluff CA. Milton married my aunt Nellie Griswold, Kay married her sister Mabel Griswold. Mabel died young and Kay later married my aunt Florence Linton.
I am still looking for and posting information about the Montgomerys (are you related?)
Mabel #12479535, Florence #117787362, Kay #12517904

"It rained for six days. Lawns were like sponges, the air in the house was thick and wet, streets were impassable and everywhere there was mud. By the time the cat dragged himself in on the fifth day, I'd given him up for drowned. He was soaked, black fur lying flat in little gobs all over his body so that it didn't look like fur anymore. I loved him. That's a feeling, isn't it?"

PISCATAWAY, NJ - The Rutgers men's soccer team lost its third match of the season on Sunday, falling to St. Mary's (CA), 2-1, in the final game of the Philips/adidas Rutgers Soccer Classic at Yurcak Field. With the defeat, Rutgers (6-3) finished third in the tournament, while St. John's captured the title with victories over St. Mary's and San Diego State. With the victory, St. Mary's took second place in the tournament.
Rutgers dominated play in regulation, out-shooting St. Mary's 27-6, but could not score on several chances, highlighted by a Chris Karcz (Clifton, NJ) shot from the top of the box that bounced off the cross bar and a Richie Arenas (Guatemala City, Guatemala) header that sailed just high of the goal. After many failed scoring opportunities, Rutgers entered its fourth overtime match of the season.
St. Mary's finished off its come-from-behind upset bid with a goal in the third minute of the second overtime. SMC's Michael Johnson pushed in a Diego Rovira corner kick just inside the far post to seal it for the Gaels, who improved to 5-7 for the season.
Karcz guided Rutgers to a 1-0 lead just before halftime. Sophomore Sammy Castellanos (Philadelphia, PA), making his second start of the season, sent a low deep cross in front of the goal which Karcz beat St. Mary's keeper Kellan Wilson to, putting in his fourth tally of the season from five yards out.
Despite the one-goal lead, Rutgers was pushing for more and seemed on the verge of its second goal of the match, out-shooting the Gaels 13-2 in the first period.
After absorbing constant pressure for the entire match, St. Mary's finally moved the ball past the RU defense. The Gaels made the most of their few scoring chances with the tying score in the 72nd minute. The Gael's Matt Fitzgerald fired a shot that bounced off Rutgers goalkeeper Lubos Ancin (Burlington, NJ), who made the start in goal for Rutgers in the second half. Anthony Butler collected the loose ball and put it in from just inside six-yard box for the equalizer.
Senior Scott Conway (Aston, PA) made two saves in the first period before being relieved by Ancin at the start of the second half. Ancin made one save for the Scarlet Knights. Wilson made 12 saves for St. Mary's including several tough stops in the second period.
"We didn't finish our chances and the ball didn't seem to drop for us today," said Rutgers head coach Bob Reasso. "Their goalie kept them in the game. We made a couple mistakes defensively and St. Mary's capitalized on them."
Arenas, who score twice for Rutgers in its win over San Diego State on Friday, and senior Josh Gros (Mechanicsburg, PA), were part of the Rutgers Classic All-Tournament team announced at the conclusion of the tournament. Other members of the All-Tournament team included Colin Hanke (SDSU), Ryan Curtis (SDSU), Matt Fitzgerald (SMC), Michael Johnson (SMC), Anthony Butler (SMC), Tim O'Neill and Simone Salinno (SJU). Chris Winger of St. John's was the Tournament Defensive MVP, while the Red Storm's Matt Groenwald took Offensive MVP honors.
Rutgers will return to action on Wednesday, Oct 8, at 3 p.m. when it takes on Seton Hall in South Orange, NJ.

Opera Theatre of St. Louis Triumphs With The Marriage of Figaro
Opening the season with Mozart's seminal classic The Marriage of Figaro was a bold move by Opera Theatre of St. Louis. The Marriage of Figaro is a stunning achievement of strategy, seduction and vengeance filled with doses of irony and laughter for good measure. Each layer of intrigue is contorted and shifted brilliantly into place creating an exciting dramatic crescendo in the final act.
Based on a play by Beaumarchais, the Mozart version is a sequel of sorts to Rossini's The Barber of Seville. As the story opens, Figaro is now a servant of Count Almaviva and engaged to Susanna, the maid of the Countess Rosina. Things begin to go downhill for Figaro when The Count, who has his designs on Susana, reinstates and old custom that would allow him to sleep with her. The opera focuses on Almaviva's manipulations to stall the nuptials. Much to the chagrin of Figaro. Meanwhile an enraged Countess is determined to teach her husband a lesson and forms an alliance with Figaro and Susanna against the Count.
As the libretto unfolds, Almaviva's scheming to prevent the marriage backfires, culminating with hilarious misfortune after the identity of Figaro's parents is revealed. If that were not enough Figaro also must fight off Dr. Bartolo's devious scheme for revenge after Figaro shattered his chances with the Countess Rosina.
One of the delights of this opera is that everyone at court seems to be gunning for Figaro. Thus Figaro sets the tempo for The Marriage of Figaro. As much as he believes he is in control of things he really is not. In fact during a day filled with madness he is merely a puppet that serves as the epicenter for parallel storylines. Fortunately for Opera Theatre Christopher Feigam's Figaro provides the foundation for the production. He gives Figaro some depth and rounds him out. He also gives the role a perfect blend of drama and comedy. Beneath the bravado he gives Figaro a sense of vulnerability essential to the role. Interestingly, Feigam played Figaro in last season's OTSL production of Ghosts of Versailles.
Soprano Maria Kanyova is perfectly cast alongside Feigam as Susanna. In every one of her scenes she makes this role her own with perfect comedic timing and a great voice. Baritone Edward Parks shines in his OTSL debut as the Count.
One of the great things about Opera Theatre is that they always have amazing sets to work with that wow the audience and make them scratch their head as to how the whole thing gets put together. This rings true with Bruno Schwengl's set. He helps set the tone of the opera by having the first half of the production feature an open stage with light colors and bright lets. He then balances this in the second half where he clutters the stage a bit and adds black to richer, darker colors and more muted lighting. The result is a stage design that organically works itself into the production.
Mozart's composition for The Marriage of Figaro has become a classic in its own right. It oftentimes is performed as an orchestral piece separate from the opera. However to achieve the best emotional effect the music and production must be synchronized. Fortunately the Opera Theatre musicians have things well in hand.
Opera Theatre of St. Louis' production of The Marriage of Figaro is a well crafted, perfectly executed production with high caliber performances from the company along with a gorgeous score and sumptuous costuming and set design. Opera Theatre has mounted an incredibly refreshing production of one of the classics of opera that shuld not be missed.
Performances are at the Loretto-Hilton Center (130 Edgar Road)
Performance Schedule: June 3, 12, 23 at 8pm, June 20 at 7pm and June 16, 26 at 1pm.

Justin Hinds special on Positive Vibrations 5/29/10
Tune in to Positive Vibrations on 88.1 KDHX and streaming online at KDHX.org Saturday, May 29, 2010, when Michael Kuelker focuses on the music of Jamaica's late, legendary Justin Hinds.
Kuelker will play previously unaired interview clips with Justin Hinds, and he will be joined in the studio for conversation with Virgil Bland. Bland, a driver for Hinds and the band for several of their U.S. tours, will share personal memories in what will prove to be a singularly special program.
Positive Vibrations airs every Saturday night from 9-11 p.m. Central with co-hosts Michael Kuelker and Professor Skank alternating. KDHX streams live [see kdhx.org] and all shows can be heard two weeks after they have aired.
Justin Hinds is one of the most important artists to come out of Jamaica in the last 50 years. Hinds was born on May 7, 1942, grew up in the north coast Jamaican village of Steertown and was based there all of his life.
Hinds began his career with the ska rave-up "Carry Go Bring Come" in late 1963. The song, which cautioned against rumor-mongering, was a huge and widely anthologized hit. Before long he was on par with some of the best singers of the period, including Jimmy Cliff, Desmond Dekker, Jackie Opal and Toots Hibbert. With his backing vocalists the Dominoes, named in tribute to Fats Domino, Hinds recorded exclusively for Duke Reid's Treasure Isle label until 1974. These years produced an astonishing amount of good music, and much of it was overtly churchical – songs such as "Cornerstone," "Holy Dove," "Jordan River," "King Samuel," "Mighty Redeemer (pts 1 & 2)," "Prophecy Must Fulfill," "Satan," "Sinners Where You Gonna Hide," "The Ark," to name only a few. He consistently drew from the deep well of proverbial wisdom in crafting his lyrics, and his vocals showed the stamp of his gospel and rural roots.
Hinds withdrew from music after Duke Reid's death, but was coaxed out of retirement by Island Records for two albums, Jezebel (1976) and Justin Time (1978). Disillusionment with the record industry set for Hinds, and it wasn't until St. Louis-based Nighthawk Records sought him out in the 1980s that Hinds again returned to the studio. The 1984 album Travel with Love put Hinds in front of members of Bob Marley's Wailers band and was a winning return to form. Although a proposed tour featuring Hinds and the Wailers band never materialized, Nighthawk continued its relationship with the singer, issuing Know Jah Better (1992) a few years later.
Following a well-received set at the Sierra Nevada World Music Festival in 1997, Hinds was inspired to tour the USA extensively, and with him were stellar musicians, including a horn section with Vin Gordon and Deadly Headley. Hinds performed three times in St. Louis in this period, shows which spanned his extensive catalog from the sixties to the present. He also contributed to the ethereally beautiful nyahbinghi album Wingless Angels with the Rolling Stones' Keith Richards and fellow north coast Jamaican musicians, and he appeared on an album by The Coyabalites around the same time.
Hinds was recording and performing with the Jamaica All Stars in the mid-2000s when he was stricken with cancer. He died on March 17, 2005.
Though the world was robbed of a classic Jamaican artist by his premature death at the age of 62, Justin Hinds' musical memory has never been far from the playlists of Positive Vibrations.

Interview with Ben Bridwell and Creighton Barrett of Band of Horses
With three albums now under their belt (their third, Infinite Arms, is due to be released on May 18), Band of Horses can play yearning and soaring anthems better than just about anyone in today's music scene. KDHX was fortunate to welcome Band of Horses lead singer and guitarist Ben Bridwell and drummer Creighton Barrett into the studio on May 4 (the afternoon before their opening set for Pearl Jam in St. Louis). Hear them talk about their new album, label change, the tour, and more in this revealing interview with Allen from Bittersweet Melody (which airs every Wednesday, 5-7 a.m. Central on 88.1 KDHX).

Photostream: Midlake at KDHX 5/15/10
It was a great pleasure and honor to host a live session with Midlake this afternoon at the Magnolia Avenue Studios of KDHX. The Denton, Texas band's album The Courage of Others is, to my ears, one of the most beautiful and mysterious records of the year, and their acoustic session, featuring all 7 members, was at once epic and delicate, lush and earthy.
Tune in to 88.1 KDHX Wednesday morning, May 19, at 9 a.m. Central to hear the three songs they performed and a bit of conversation with songwriter Tim Smith. And don't miss Midlake's show tonight at the Old Rock House. The band hasn't played St. Louis in years, so it should be pretty special.
