looking for good, FLAVORFUL hot food
- f
- flowerofhighrank Feb 15, 2009 07:43 PM
I am not a masochist. However, I am constantly disappointed in restaurants offering 'hot' food. I've begged in Thai and English for 'Thai level' spice. They smile and nod and I get a plate of tasty, delicious but ultimately pedestrian Thai food. I went to Balti House and asked for 'British Hot, NOT American Hot'; it was like the salsa at Denny's. I just had 'Atomic' wings from Alondras Hot Wings. They make you sign a waiver when you pick them up, releasing them from any liability if they're too hot. I ate half the tray and practically cried: spicy, yeah, okay, but nothing special. The 'special' salsa at El Cholo you have to ask for, it's good, but too watery and, well, it's salsa.
Like I said, I'm not a masochist. But can anybody point me to some good flavor where I don't have to bring my own container of Dave's Dragon Dust? I'm not into organ meats or 'Fear Factor' dishes, and it's got to have good flavor. I can burn my own mouth at home with Dave Insanity Sauce, I want something good.
re: ipsedixit
thanks. I'm on the wall at Orochon!
i feel for you! honestly. i think being a girl makes it even more challenging - b/c people just don't believe you can eat hot food. i've been to jitlada, begged for hot food (please please pet pet), and was severely disappointed. food tasted great - but spice level was not there. i think the solution to this issue - is for people who can't eat spicy food to not eat it. restaurants want to please and people who can't take spice make such a fuss - that they won't serve it to anyone b/c they think that their customers will be disappointed. for me - it's the opposite. i want spicy, but can't get it.
the only place i've found that has - inconsistently - very spicy food is akbar indian in the marina. (santa monica and manhattan beach locations do not make the food spicy.) i've also found that ordering to go or for delivery helps get you a spicier dish. i've talked about this with them numerous times and the guy says that he doesn't want to take food back b/c they can make it super spicy. so - the two dishes i get are lamb vindaloo and prawns madras (both on a super level 5 spicy - it's a 1-5 scale). and just really tell them that over and over and you might get it. it's hit or miss, but when they make it spicy - it is amazing. my absolute favorite.
also - king taco has the most delightful red and green salsas. amazing! i love love love king taco - but i always get two huge "to gos" of the hot sauce - b/c seriously, it is intense and super flavorful and spicy. they also have a wonderful appetizer - chicken mint something - it's chicken slathered with a spicy mint marinade and i think cooked in the tandori. it is really good. and very spicy.
i have not had spicy thai food in this city for a LONG time. in the past, i had good luck at a place in panorama city called "khun khao" 13550 Roscoe Blvd. i rarely get out there anymore just b/c it's not fitting with my schedule - but this place would make some wonderful spicy food. the tom yum tay lay (sp?) or goong is delicious and just melts in your mouth with flavor and spice. my favorite dishes are the spicy shrimp mint and garlic shrimp. so good!!! like i said - haven't been for a bit - but used to be the best of the best. i randomly try places in thai town, but am usually disappointed b/c i'm expecting too much.
re: bu dat
bu dat: thanks!
re: flowerofhighrank
welcome. and good luck.
btw - the spicy mint chicken is at akbar (3115 Washington Blvd), not king taco . . . small typo.
also - chichen itza, where i have never been, is supposed to have amazing and spicy food. and La Serenata de Garibaldi sometimes has some very tasty sauces that are very spicy. their food is very good even if you don't happen to pick something spicy.
re: bu dat
Could not agree more with your King Taco and Akbar recs. The salsa at Kink Taco is incredible - I only wish they sold larger amounts of it instead of 6 oz.
I've had good luck getting properly spicy food at the Akbar location in Pasadena too.
re: bu dat
Agree re: Akbar. But this was at the Santa Monica location that the hot-fest was tried and felled several British lads. No one enjoyed their food past a 4, and if I recall, they served it to us up to a 7. (I was an observer and stayed with the 3 with taste of 4 for masala. Could've done a 4-5 in pepper lamb if really wanted heat.)
Down near/in Westchester I tried Ayara Thai and got the Jungle Curry (which is basically a spicy beef soup). Their mild-to-medium (what they tell the cooks) was perfectly hot-spicy for me - I asked for the American version of spicy but not extreme and asked the waitress to translate that to her cooks. She confirmed that mild-medium was what she told them. I don't consider myself a spicy food fiend but I've never had a problem with any atomic wings and I do drink Tabasco a little. I could've handled the medium at Ayara Thai, I'm pretty sure. (I would've ordered that - for delivery - if I had a cold.) But I don't really think I could've done more than a medium and enjoyed it. (Medium probably would've been like a 4 at Akbar.) You, however, might want to ask them to make it as hot as anyone has ever liked it. (Jungle curry tends to be hotter than a bunch of other Thai curries because it does not have the gorgeous fat in any coconut milk to chill it out.)
The spicy chicken wings at Prince really are. Very spicy and garlicky!
The Prince
3198 W Seventh St, Los Angeles, CA 90005
Perhaps Babita for the Shrimp Tobpolbampo?

My most recent flavorful hot food experience was at Mariscos Chente on Centinela in Mar Vista. This place has been getting a lot of love from CH posters lately, and deservedly so. The do treat their seafood with great respect - one's only qualm might be the style, depending on the dish relative to personal taste.
I tried their camarones a la diabila and camarones a la pimienta side-by-side. While both were spicy hot, the a la pimienta was by far the spicier of the two. The diabila was black peppery hot, but the pimienta had a build-up heat factor that was very enjoyable. If you couple that with their well-prepared salsa verde - it has its own flavorful kick as well - with their chips, you should be more than satisfied.
Yeah, I'm often in the same boat as you. Ruen Pair is the one restaurant I've been to that will make food consistently spicy without my having to beg, cajole, or scheme -- I just ask for "very spicy". They don't make it nuclear-hot, but it's definitely hotter than what you usually find out there -- the kind of hot that grows on you throughout the meal.
My other big success story has been at Jitlada. Unlike Ruen Pair, you actually have to scheme a little at Jitlada. My best success came one afternoon when the restaurant was mostly empty and Tui's daughter was waiting tables. We had a short conversation, after which I said something like, "So last time I was here I asked that the kitchen make the food the same way they make it for Thai customers, but when I got it, it was very bland. And Jazz took it back and added a little more heat, but it was still mild." And she immediately volunteered, "Oh, okay. I'll tell the kitchen that you're a Thai customer."
That worked; my food was fabulously hot.
But it's pretty hit-or-miss whether you can get them to fire it up. I usually ask that the food be made "the way you would prepare it for a Thai customer", and mention that "last time" it wasn't hot enough. Needless to say, don't share a table with anyone who requests that their dish be prepared less spicy.
And, hot or not, both of these restaurants make delicious food. Search the board to find the dishes to order.
re: Bjartmarr
We were at Jitlada about 3-4 weeks ago and had pretty good luck on the spicy index. Like a lot of places, I think they size you up. We told them that my wife is from Malaysia, and that we visit SE Asia including Thailand, so please don't hold back.
1. Peruvian. Since the (exceptional, at some places) heat comes from a bottle of aji, which is this gorgeous... green... ground... sauce substance, you can ladle on as much as you want.
Puro Sabor
Mario's Peruvian
Antiucheria Danessi
Pollo a la Brasa, western and 8th.
There's a place in Vine below Sunset a lot of people here like, but they serve the most... mellowed out of Peruvian places. The above might serve you better.
2. Chinese - Sichuan and Hunan
Either of Chung King or Hunan Seafood Restaurant will not gringo you in any way. Alas for the departed: Oriental Pearl, Best Sichuan, etc.
These are both *absolutely* guaranteed to please.
There's a Mongolian-ish Sichuan place, too. Hu Bei? Can't remember the name. Even the sweet appetizer peanuts are spicy.
The Sichuan broth at Little Fat Sheep, a mongolian hot pot place, will also please.
In general, the spicy places in San Gabriel are too isolated from a non-Chinese community to really worry about having to alter things. Unlike, say...
3. Thai
I live near Thaitown. They are reluctant to serve non-Thais the spiciest - and I understand. The *number* of times I've seen a non-Thai order a dish, demand extra spicy, and then send it back as "inedibly spicy" or "a joke"... it makes me angry.
Anyway: unlike many of the other places here, since Thaitown is in the middle of a very... er, non-Thai hip neighborhood, they get a lot of non-enclave people in, and have been often burned by people sending back.
That said: there are some principles of ordering.
A. Demand spicy. The phrase "Thai spicy," or "spicy like Thai people like it" seems to work in some places.
B. You can send back things for *extra spice*. This is, unlike the previous problem, good, because they don't necessarily have to throw the food away. But be nice about it.
C. If you go regularly, and do B., they can get to know you.
D. I hate to say this, but, as far as I can tell, it helps: It helps if you have at least one non-white person in your party. I'm Vietnamese. I have some trouble getting adequately spicy food, but not as much as my Caucausian friends. But if I go with them and *order* or *nod vigorously* when Caucasians friends order "spicy" and give a big thumbs up, they're much more likely to get fully spicy food. Being Latino seems to have the same effect. If you don't have access to a non-white person, vigorous application of A, B, and C, I'm told, can do the trick.
E. Whatever you do, don't send back something for being too spicy. You ordered it. And it spoils it for everybody.
Most important is being a regular. I definitely have a sense of being tested - like I order "full spicy", or "extra spicy", and they give me something I'd call medium spicy. If I finish my plate and look happy, the waitress will often make some comment, or praise me, and the next time it comes even spicier. Rinse, and repeat, until it's near the limit of my tolerance. (I've gotten it to the level where I can now, at my favorite places, order something that the waitress laughs at and says, "You can eat that? I can't eat that. Only my granddad eats stuff like that." But that's verging on masochism.)
Again: watch the crowds. The more predominately Thai the places, the more likely you are to be able to get spicy stuff. Best bets for the full spicy: Ganda Restaurant, Ruen Pair, Rod Ded (home of the ludicrously great spicy duck soup, and stewed pork leg, and chicken rice), Noodles Thaitown, Sapp Coffeehouse (never been gringoed here), Sunset Siam (never been gringoed here, get the stewed pork leg).
Renu Nakorn, out in Norwalk, is another good choice. Or you can make the drive out to the holy temple of spice, Lotus of Siam, in Vegas. There is a habernero-paste-shelled grilled catfish.
4. Indian
The best stuff is all in Artesia.
Tirupathi Bhimas is your best bet for spicy. They serve Andhra food - a specific province of India - which is sort of like the Sichuan of India - the weirdiest and spiciest. Get their big thali, and throw in other stuff.
All of Udipi Palace, Surati Farsan Mart, and even Radjhani will also get in the vicinity, in different moods.
5. Korean
Let me add sokongdong soontofu as a place where you can get gloriously spicy simmered tofu in spicy beef stew.
Korean Folk Cuisine is also a nice one - they have super-good spicy octopus, if I remember correctly.
Koreatown, in general, will do you right, and not underspice things. And, much like, say, Viet places, a lot of the spicings come in condiment dishes at the table, and you spice to taste.
Best condiment: the spice past at Han Shul Bat, my favorite beef bone soup joint.
So the moral: enclaves, enclaves, enclaves. Persistance, persistance, persistance. Be regular, be nice, ask nicely, finish your plate, come again, say, "like last time, but even spicier!" Tip well. You'll get it eventually.
Some of these places, you have to win their hearts before they'll give you the full spice dealy-o.
re: Thi N.
It also helps to show knowledge of the cuisine. If you go to an Issan Thai place and order the usual Southern dishes, they'll assume you don't know what's up and give you the Americanized stuff.
If you order the right region, order precisely the specialties of the reason, and order the oddball stuff, you really increase your likelihood of getting it right.
Here's my best idea:
Go to Ganda, in Thaitown.
Order duck larb, the crispy-fried shredded catfish with green apples, and the salad with thousand-year old egg and chinese sausage. These are all very regionally correct, specialties, and spicy. Look the waitress in the eye, and say, "Thai spicy, please." Clasp your hands together. Make begging eyes. Explain that other places won't give it to you spicy. See what happens.
re: Thi N.
I send food back if it is not spicy enough.
re: Thi N.
Things I forgot to mention:
Merguez (moroccan sausage) at Simon's Cafe.
re: Thi N.
Great stuff, Thi!
Jonathan Gold talked about Sichuan and Hunan places in the SGV last week:
Someone already mentioned shrimp topolobampo at Babita--talk about flavorful! Talk about spicy! They'll even serve it on fish (salmon's great) if you don't like shrimp. This stuff rocks.
Our fave is Lu Gi in San Gabriel--the Taiwanese take on Sichuan hot-pot. First time we went there we ordered the yin-yang pot; half spicy broth, half non-spicy. Given that we were newbies, and caucasian to boot, it was pretty darn spicy. Next time we went we ordered just spicy--we hardly touched the non-spicy broth the previous time, tasted so bland--and it was even spicier. Now we're regulars--probably the only caucasians not in the company of an asian, and the only of any color (that we've seen, anyhow) who order spicy-only hot pot. They've taken to bringing out our Tsing-Taos as soon as we sit down. Goes well with the broth, which is sooooo good. Very spicy, and full of deep, funky flavors. It's our drug of choice.

Matt Smith to star in Ryan Gosling pic
via Variety:
"Doctor Who" star Matt Smith is ready to cross the Atlantic to make his U.S. acting debut, taking the male lead in the Ryan Gosling-directed pic "How to Catch a Monster."
Pic currently stars Christina Hendricks and Eva Mendes, and will mark Gosling's directing debut.
Marc Platt and Adam Siegel will produce on behalf of Marc Platt Prods., along with Gosling via his Phantasma Films banner, and Michel Litvak and David Lancaster via the Bold Films banner.
Story is set against the surreal dreamscape of a vanishing city and centered on a single mother of two being swept into a macabre and dark fantasy underworld while her teenage son discovers a secret road leading to an underwater town. Production is set to start this spring.
The UTA and Troika-epped Smith has starred in a handful of BBC and British productions but never a stateside movie.
His third season of playing the Doctor recently wrapped and he also recently directed the short film "Cargese" for Sky Arts series Playhouse Presents.

Google Voice Lets Santa Call Your Friends
Google Voice launched on Wednesday (Dec. 7) a service that sends personalized phone calls from Santa to friends and family.
Similar to Mad Libs, sendacallfromsanta.com gives callers the opportunity to select a few phrases for Santa – and some of the options are quite quirky: "My first stop is your house in the hood, so don't forget to leave me a grilled cheese sandwich."
Messages can also be sent over the phone (to U.S. numbers only) or via email, Facebook or Twitter.
Kids can also leave a message for Santa at his Google Voice number: 855-34-SANTA.
The big guy can also be tracked via Google Maps and on Google Earth starting Christmas Eve.

Miss Indiana Teen USA
The Miss Indiana Teen USA competition is the pageant that selects the representative for the state of Indiana in the Miss Teen USA pageant. This pageant is directed by Sanders and Associates.
Indiana had a slow start at Miss Teen USA, and did not place until 1991. That placement became the first of a four-year streak, which included three semi-finalist and one 1st runner-up placings.
Six Indiana teens have gone on to win the Miss Indiana USA crown, more than most other states. The most successful of these, Kelly Lloyd, who achieved Indiana's highest ever Miss Teen USA placement also went on to earn one of Miss Indiana USA's highest placements in 2002. Even more notable, Lloyd was a Triple Crown winner.
Results summary[edit]
- First runners-up: Kelly Lloyd (1993)
- Fourth runners-up: Jillian Dornbush (2001)
- Top 10: Kera Boog (2000)
- Top 12: Heather Hart (1991), Nicole Llewellyn (1992), Nicolette Van Hook (1994)
- Top 15: Jami Stallings (2003), Jessica Michelle Buch (2011), Zoe Parker (2014)
- Miss Photogenic: Jillian Dornbush (2001)

Noise Figure, the Y Factor Method and UncertaintiesApril 30th, 2011. Posted in Test and Measurement, Tutorials
Any electronic device or component produces Noise. Its a fact of life. Even a passive resistor when at room temperature has movement of its electrons which results in noise. This is termed as Thermal Noise and the minimum this can be with a system at room temperature is -174dBm/Hz (-174dBm measured in a 1Hz bandwidth).
The noise power in a resistor is given by:
where, k = Boltzmann's constant in Joules per Kelvin, T = absolute room temp = 293 kelvin, B = Bandwidth, 1 Hz in this example. Then converted to dBm's.
What is Noise Figure?
Noise Figure is a value that defines the amount of noise that a device adds to a signal that passes through it. When many components are added together in a circuit each component contributes to the overall noise generated. This is important for many types of circuit including transmitters and receivers. In a transmit stage, the noise contributes to degradation of the signal quality. In the receiver, noise limits the sensitivity of the circuit. This makes Noise Figure an important parameter to be measured for many electronic circuits.
Noise Figure itself is defined as:
Where F is the Noise Factor and is given by:
Noise Figure can be measured using various different methods. Indeed it is now possible to measure Noise Figure using a Vector Network Analyser and without the need for any kind of Noise Source as this document from Rohde and Schwarz describes.
The most common method of Noise Figure measurement involves using a Spectrum Analyser with a Noise Source and is called the Y Factor Method.
This technique makes use of a calibrated broadband noise source that contains two temperature states: A high temperature state, T(ON source) with a higher output of noise power, and a low temperature state, T(OFF source) with reduced noise output. The noise source is applied to the input of the device under test and the noise power at the output of the DUT is measured for each of the two input noise states. The noise figure and gain of the DUT are calculated from these measurements.
A typical setup for this is below:
A new application note titled "The Y Factor Technique for Noise Figure Measurements" by two colleagues Mike Leffel and Rick Daniel has been released which aims to give a detailed account of Noise Figure measurements. The equations that define noise figure, how Y Factor works along with calculation of uncertainties when using various pieces of test equipment. This is highly recommended for a anyone who needs to make noise figure measurements.Post Tags: Noise Figure » Spectrum Analysis » Spectrum Analyzer » Test and Measurement

Damn anger
How I hate that emotion
It attacks like a knife
It's a form of control.
Its like an ultimation
To do as you say
I'm so tired of eggshells
So tired and old
I can't fight anymore
Don't want to be told.
On my own I am safe
No one will abuse
No anger to hurt me
Or make me feel used.
Wake up to yourself Rob
You can go it alone
You've done it before
On your own you are fine

The "lazy poor" who are too lazy to go to the trouble of shopping, preparing food for their children are the very people who are too lazy to spend time with their precious children. Not all the poor are lazy, but enough of them are that these children are being sent to the fast-food places for food and are not being read to or interacted with at home. Of course, then the Libs are blaming the government for not spending more money on more programs.

"You love your brother,
now suddenly you can hardly stand
the love flooding you for your brother,
who's not beside you or behind or
ahead because he's home trying to
sleep off a miserable night shift
at Cadillac so he can get up
before noon to study his German.
Works eight hours a night so he can sing
Wagner, the opera you hate most,
the worst music ever invented.
How long has it been since you told him
you loved him, held his wide shoulders,
opened you eyes wide and said those words,
and maybe kissed his cheek? You've never
done something so simple, so obvious,
not because you're too young or too dumb,
not because you're jealous or even mean
or incapable of crying in
the presence of another man, no,
just because you don't know what work is."

This is the best cork tape available. It has a great feel, it's very durable, easy to keep clean, and they give you plenty material to wrap even the biggest drops. Also, I'm a big fan of the color options! Don't kid yourself... you know it matters.

Yes, they are everywhere, but for a good reason; Ultegra derailleurs are amazingly good at moving a chain around. When properly adjusted and maintained, this derailleur sings. This thing shifts faster than you will ever need... perhaps faster. In a word, it is snappy. As an added benefit, it's delightfully quiet. None of that SRAM clickety-clack.

Yes it's stiff, it shifts effortlessly, it's beautiful, it's light, and it works. No carbon silliness, no wonky chainring shapes, just a simple and elegant crankset. Sure, it's not the lightest option out there... but will you really notice? Will it make a difference? When paired with the Ultegra BB and the Ultegra chain, this thing is unstoppable. As an added plus, when properly lubed, it runs completely silent. As an example of this things strength, I weigh a little under 180 lbs. and I can't get this thing to flex for the life of me... even if I'm standing on it, stomping it up a hill, or sprinting with all my might. Try it, you won't be disappointed. Aside from wheels, an Ultegra crankset is the most beneficial upgrade you can make to your road machine.

In case you were wondering, the Sidi Wire does come with the "carbon sole protector kit"that is required per Speedplay install instructions. This is a thin piece of sheet metal that fits between the Speedplay cleat and the shoe to prevent damage to the carbon sole. Be sure to keep it lubed!

The Sidi Wire shoe is amazing. I was impressed from the first time that I tried them on, and I continue to be impressed every day. As with all Sidi products, the fit/finish is second to none. They are as comfortable and functional as they are beautiful.
As with all shoes, these may not be right for you. Every foot is different, and we all have different needs. Sidi tends to run a little narrow, and tends to have a tighter toe box, but they have made some wonderful adjustments to these shoes. The Wire is special in that it can offer more of a custom fit and therefore more comfort. The closure system is brilliant and can be rapidly adjusted on the bike. Even more important, the ratchet system holds, even over the longest, hardest ride.
Overall, the best shoe out there (especially for speedplay specific soles). I love these things and I look forward to years of comfortable and powerful riding. Thank you Sidi!

Two things to note: If you are searching for soft and spongy bar tape, keep looking. Fizik makes other tapes with more padding, as do many other manufactures. Look for the words "Gel" and or "Cork"if you want comfort. Also, this stuff is going to be slick if you get caught out in the rain. However, if you are using Fizik bar tape, chances are you don't ride in the rain that often... Something to keep in mind though.
That said, this stuff rocks! It looks slick and shiny, but it offers plenty of grip (even without gloves, and even with sweaty hands). It has a very thin profile, allowing for a tight and smooth tape job. It lays down nice and flat and the edges remain smooth and barely noticeable when I run my hands over the bars. Installation is improved by a thin strip of adhesive on the back of the tape, and Fizik offers you plenty of length to work with (no trouble wrapping my 42 Ergosum drop bars). However, I will say that the nature of this material makes it a little tricky to wrap a "figure-8" around the brake hoods (it's not as flexible as cork or gel tape). Lastly, and this is a minor detail that may not apply to every rider, it is super easy to keep clean. For those of you who always liked the look of white bar tape, but hated dealing with the hassle of keeping it from turning gray, this tape should be strongly considered. Just rub with a damp shop rag and it will look good as new.

For the past three years I have been riding on the OEM Al drop bars that came with my bike. Not bad bars, but they weren't doing me any favors (wrong size/shape for my body). I recently decided to spring for a pair of carbon bars, something which I had been debating internally for quite some time. I am glad I did! They are significantly more comfortable, better for my riding position, "softer" on the road than Al, plenty stiff, and yes... lighter (noticeably so). The profile of the Ergosum is perfect for my hands and body position when I'm on the bike. They offer more reach (placing the hoods farther away) and a shallower drop. They allow me to comfortably achieve an aggressive/aero posture that was impossible (or at best, unsustainable) on my original bars. It is important to note that these bars are oriented more toward a "race" cockpit setup. If you are looking for a comfort specific/gran fondo carbon bar, there are more suitable options out there. Ultimately though, the Ergosum is a great bar. I'm looking forward to years of riding with this magnificent piece of equipment. 3T is pretty sweet...

Very comfortable shape (at least for me and my average sized hands). Very happy with these bars.

The half size up will be a little wider, but you will have to try them on to see if it makes enough of a difference for your feet. With regards to the "Mega" option you mentioned, the Wire is currently only offered in standard sizes. No indication of a "Mega" Wire any time soon.
As you may have discovered, Sidi tends to favor riders with narrower feet. If you are getting sleepy toes in your Ergo 3's, you are probably going to get sleepy toes in these. The Wire and the Ergo 3 are very similar in shape and fit. That said, the Wire is a slightly more adjustable shoe than the Ergo 3, and it's significantly more comfortable (on my feet, at least). Have you tried different socks (thinner/barefoot)? How about a different insole? How about a different shoe (Shimano makes great shoes, better for wider feet). There are loads of options out there. Good Luck!
Crispy shifts and years of faithful service... what more can one say? No Ultegra or Dura Ace, but for the money... I will stick with 105.
0 Comments
Mine did not. The Ultegra BB is intended for 68mm or 70mm (depending upon which size you purchase). No sign of a 73mm Ultegra BB.
You could, but why? Save the trouble and money and go with ultegra.. or 105.. or any crankset that suits your needs.
Yes, 11-28 will work well with your described kit. However, FD does not impact chain length. More importantly, what is the size of your largest sprocket in your current cassette? If it is anything other than 28, you may need to adjust your chain.
Yes, the 28 tooth will help a bunch. However, if you have the cash, you would be better off with a compact double crank (50, 34). That 30 tooth front gear is not doing you any favors, and 39 is a few teeth too many. 34 front + 28 rear = mountain climbing status. Nothing will stop you!
If you stick with the triple crank and throw on a 12-28, you will need more chain. Good luck.
Dura Ace performance, fraction of the cost... what's not to like? Granted, DA is lighter and has more precise tooth profiles, but for everyday commuters... 105 is the new DA.
If you are thinking about purchasing one, stop thinking and just do it. You will not be disappointed.

The front derailleur has a difficult job, but when it is working properly it is easy to forget it's even part of the bike. However, a poorly functioning front mech is the fastest way to ruin a good ride. Fortunately, I have had the pleasure to be the owner of a 105 front derailleur, which has made me a very happy cyclist. I only had to adjust it once over three years (cable change), and it never gave me any trouble. Perfect, quick shifts every time. No dropped chains. Shimano knows what they are doing! Price to performance ratio, 105 FD5700 is the clear winner.

Battery is rechargeable, not replaceable. Go with the Stella 300, or if you want serious illumination... SECA 1700 Enduro (both are from Light and Motion).
You could always try your local electronic supply, or you can get one through Light and Motion directly:
Light and Motion is the company that I turn to every time I need lights. Admittedly, they are a little pricey... but as we all know, "you get what you pay for."I have been using my"Light and Motion URBAN300" for commuting, and it is perfect in every way. There are brighter and more expensive lights out there, but the 300 was able to satisfy all of my requirements at a lower price: It is bright and visible, easy to use, rechargeable, and casts a beam that lights up the road surface. I am not certain if all Light and Motion headlamps operate the same, but my 300 has four brightness settings, one strobe (always gets noticed). It also has the same side LEDs as the 180 taillight for added visibility. Plus, it came with a helmet mount, although I prefer to mount it directly to my handlebars.
Can't comment on "Lupine Lighting," I have never used any of those products. What I can recommend is that you should choose a lamp with a rating of at least 150 lumens and some form of side illumination. Good luck, and stay safe!

Blepharospasm, which has no definitive treatment, often has a strong

From Time's 100 Most Influential People Who Never Lived - Harry Potter, written by Chris Colfer
Text reads:
It's almost unheard of for literary characters to have as much magnitude behind their name as a Michael Jackson, a Madonna, or a Barack Obama. However, Harry Potter is a rare exception.
Unfortunately, we've become so accustomed to empty promises in entertainment - pop stars who can't sing a note, actors who don't necessarily act, television personalities with surprisingly very little personality - we've trained ourselves to stop wondering why something is worthy of the attention it receives. We just accept the current fads and suffer through until the world forgets about them.
But unlike many of the other "obsessions" he's categorized with, if you look past the hype to the actual substance, you can see that Harry Potter is worthy of the acclaim he's received. Long before J.K. Rowling's seven novels about Harry's exploits became one of the best-selling book series ever written, one of the most profitable film franchises ever produced, and a theme park that encourages grown adults to run around in capes with wands (to their children's horror), Harry was just a boy who lived under the stairs, and his heroic journey into wizardry captivated the world.
In the late 1990s and early 2000s, when the Harry Potter books flew into bookstores, libraries, and book fairs throughout the world, they brought much more than just a fantasy to the readers. Harry never needed an antibullying campaign to inspire bravery. Harry and his friends never needed an outside source to validate their belief in themselves. And as the world endured the haunting period after 9/11, it was comforting to see someone like Harry triumph over his own battle of good vs. evil.
Harry Potter taught the world to believe in magic again, that love conquers all, and that the impossible can be seen as an option. It's no surprise that he is the subject of possibly the most passionate cult following of all time and that a sea of 11-year-olds is awaiting their Hogwarts acceptance letters as we speak.

Windows 7 Build 7068, Mobile Intel 4 Express Graphics
Having had no problems with Build 7057 with the graphics drivers for the Mobile Intel(R) 4 Series Express Chipset Family - I installed Build 7068.
When I opened the game - Chess.. the PC crashed.. and a balloon popped up to say that the Intel driver had stopped working.
Windows 7 had installed version 8.15 of the Mobile Intel(R) 4 Series Express Chipset driver.
I reinstalled this driver... to see if this fixed it.. it didnt.
I found going to the intel site, and downloading the driver from there, version 7.15 - fixed the problem
Hope this helps.

To all the people who feel horrible in every kind of way:
It's stupid because If you want to be beautiful because of another person than you should consider the fact that this person doesn't deserve to stay with 'cause he/she doesn't accept you for who you are.
If you want to be beautiful for yourself than it's stupid too because if no mirror existed you would be totally fine with yourself, and so why are you now?
And another thing, I work in the beauty system, and my job is to edit all the photos I receive from photographers, and MODIFY EVERYTHING of the model in order to make her look like a doll. And I assure you, no model that you see is perfect, the job of another person make them so.
And who's talking is someone who's neither ugly nor beautiful, just herself.
people dont like me because im fat
i have no friends because im fat
im single because im fat
im lonely because im fat
boys think im ugly because im fat
i hate myself because im fat
i look horrible because im fat
i am worthless because im fat
i feel fat because im fat
If you don't want to be fat, stop being bold and start trying to change into regular

I am going to be kind of pissed if the iPhone coming to Sprint screws up the unlimited data plan I got going. I think overage fees for data is a bunch of crap and throttling is more reasonable. The main thing that upsets me is that the cost of transmitting data is not nearly as high as cell companies and ISPs make it seem.
Why would getting the Iphone prompt them to change their Data plans. Most of their top phones use tons of data and I'm sure there are quite a few people that abuse the hell out of the unlimited plan. If they are smart then they will keep the unlimited plan long after the get the IPhone cause I can see lots of people jumping ship from AT&T and Verizon to go unlimited. I honestly would take an HTC Evo 4G or a Samsung Galaxy S II over the IPhone any day though lolz.
Yea... anyone who works in IT on networking equipment realizes how ridiculous the charges are from cell phone companies and ISPs.
Sending a Text message uses less bandwidth than placing a call to say what was said in the text, yet they charge you more for it.
Tethering your device costs you extra... even tho you are using the same network you are already paying to have access to. if you're paying for tethering... you're paying for the right to use a USB cable.
If you are paying for mobile hotspot on top of tethering, that's even MORE ridiculous, because you are paying to use a capability your phone already has and you're STILL using the SAME network you are already paying to have access to!
How do we keep letting them get away with this stuff?!?! It's CRAZY!
It's like if you're ISP came to you and said... oh you're gonna use internet connection sharing on your computer so you're other computer can access the internet too?! That's gonna be an extra $10 a month. Oh you want to set up an Ad Hoc from one laptop to the other to share your internet? That's gonna be an other $10 a month. What's that you say? You're gonna use your own wireless router? Well it's gonna be an extra $10 a month for that too!
Blasphemy I tell you!
Exactly acartz, though I do remember a time when the Cable company said you could only use your connection for one computer. Some modems still lock down to the MAC address they are plugged into in peoples homes and you have to reboot the thing if you have to hook a different computer in.
That ones nice thing about having a rooted Evo I can do what I want without paying them extra for the services...
I do respect Sprint for doing the right thing. Hopefully they can continue to offer unlimited although I am not with them its sill good to see.

Reactions to yesterday's election are coming swift — and sometimes harsh — as pundits weigh in on this midterm tidal turn.
The New Republic's John B. Judis that America has lost its ability to bounce back after tough times, and that last night's GOP sweep is evidence that voters will go with whichever tide seems the best.
Republicans might say it's the re-emergence of a conservative Republican majority, but that's not really what happened. What this election suggests to me is that the United States may have finally lost its ability to adapt politically to the systemic crises that it has periodically faced.
The Atlantic's Marc Ambinder says that Republicans will have to get beyond "no" because voters have squarely placed the country's woes on their shoulders.
Privately, White House officials hope that Republicans immediately adopt a celebratory, no-compromise, "we're back!" posture, and hope that they don't take the advice of Sen. Mitch McConnell, who will call the election a mere "course correction." Before or after Asia, he is almost certain to invite the new leaders of Congress to the White House, or to Camp David. There will be private meetings and a public photo op. Message: it's easy to say no, guys, but now this big pile of problems is on you, too.
Michelle Malkin thinks the results were a complete referendum on the Obama White House and isn't mincing words about how she sees the road going forward.
No more compromising deals behind closed doors.
No more compromising bailouts in times of manufactured crisis.
No more compromising conservative principles for D.C. party elites.
No more compromising the American economy for left-wing special interests.
No more compromising transparency and ethics for bureaucratic self-preservation.
Let us be clear, in case it hasn't fully sunk into the minds of Obama and the trash-talking Democrats yet: You can take your faux olive branch and shove it.
The New Republic's Jonathan Cohn says the Republicans will have to change their tune because simply saying "no" may have won them an election but it will not help the cause they campaigned on.
[T]hose complaining most loudly about the (White House's) lack of focus (on the economy) happen to be the same ones who pushed back, and are still pushing back, against the policies that would have delivered said improvement. Score one for irony, albeit the predictable and familiar kind.

7 Outdoor Adventures Near Denver
With some of the best riding, rafting, climbing and skiing in the world, Colorado's stretch of the Rocky Mountains are a mecca for adventure geeks. The good news is that whether you're an amateur or a seasoned adrenaline junkie, Denver makes exploring Colorado's outdoors easy. Here are the coolest daytrips and adventure activities near the Mile-High City. Enjoy.
1. Ski and Snowboard at Vail Mountain Resort
With Vail's 350 inches of annual snowfall, 3,500 vertical feet of mountain, 31 ski lifts and 5,000 acres of rideable terrain, outdoor enthusiasts can shred everything from long expert runs to powder-filled back bowls. When the lifts stop turning, hit one of Vail's many watering holes for good barbecue or pub grub. The George restaurant has killer happy hour specials from 3 to 7pm and most restaurants and bars are within walking distance from the 5-star Vail Four Seasons (worth the splurge, as you can practically ski out the back door).
Getting There: Follow I-70 west from Denver into the Rocky Mountains for 97 miles. To avoid heavy traffic, head out before 8am or after 10am, and home before the last lift or after dinnertime.
2. Whitewater Raft the Colorado River
You can't visit Colorado without taking a whitewater rafting trip. From May to September, Geo Tours (located in Morrison just a 20 minute drive from downtown Denver) provides access, gear and guides who take you down Class IV rapids. The company—in operation since 1981—shuttles you to and from parts of the Colorado River, Arkansas River and Clear Creek, depending on how far you want to raft. It also organizes overnight trips and inflatable kayaking if you'd like a multi-day excursion.
Getting There: Take Highway 6 West to 470 South for 17 miles to Geo Tours in Morrison base for free transportation to rafting locations.
3. Snowshoe in Rocky Mountain National Park
Ever wanted to float over several feet of powder? At Rocky Mountain National Park from November to April, you can do just that. Rent a pair of poles and shoes from R.E.I. in downtown Denver, and head up to the park entrance. From there, pick your trailhead, strap on a pair of snowshoes and hike over 25-30 inches of drifts and banks. Bear Lake hike, buried deep in the park, cuts across a handful of small mountain lakes, winds around cliff faces and tops out around 10,000 feet with gorgeous alpine views. Hint: the National Park Service salts and sands the roads but 4-wheel drive vehicles come in handy here.
Getting There: Follow Highway 36 northwest for just over 70 miles directly into Rocky Mountain National Park. Take your first left after the ranger station and drive until the road ends at Bear Lake trailhead.

Designer's Designer: Nina Egli of Toujours Toi Family Affairs Gets Sketchy With Her 11:11 Notebook
Before Nina Egli made a name for herself with her lines Toujours Toi and Family Affairs, she was crafting in a tiny apartment with her BFF Jamila. Now Jamila has her own thing going, too: a quirky notebook and wallet line 11:11 that her pal obviously obsesses over. —julia silverman
Left: Nina poses with her fave notebook. Right: A sketch of the Million Miles dress by Toujours Toi Family Affairs.
"When I met Jamila nine years ago through a Craigslist apartment ad, I had no idea I was also meeting one of my best friends. We would both sit in our teeny rooms all day making things, and years later, we're both still at it. For this 11:11 notebook, Jamila created a whole key decoding the symbols on its cover: The diamond bunnies stand for prosperity, and the mango for love, fertility, and bliss. I carry the notebook with me on all my travels. It's useful for my sketches, but it's also a good luck charm that warms my heart." —nina

Eight Nominations for Songs of the Summer
We asked our very tuned-in designers to provide us with a playlist.
Whenever we sit down to talk to designers, the topic of music inevitably comes up. Since the designers we work with are far more musically savvy (and all-around cool) than us, we turned to them for eight tracks to get us through the next couple months. —erica
Some of the most prized records in Toujours Toi Family Affairs designer Nina Egli's collection.
1) "Devil Hearts Grow Gold" by Las Sera, as nominated by Nina Egli of Toujours Toi Family Affairs: "It's just so dreamy. It makes me want to stroll through flower fields and take a nap—and not work."
2) "Composure" by Warpaint, as nominated by Hillary Taymour of Collina Strada: "It was the first band I saw at Coachella, which pretty much started my summer. All the girls are super cute, and their whole album The Fool is amazing."
3) "Bar-B-Q" by Wendy Rene, as nominated by Ellen van Dusen of Dusen Dusen: "This is my jam of the summer because, hey, I like barbecues."
4) "California Girls" by The Beach Boys, as nominated by Caroline Ventura of Brvtvs: "Whenever I listen to it, I am instantly transported back to growing up on the beach in So-Cal, learning how to surf, and digging for sand crabs."
5) "Flying Overseas" by Theophilus London, as nominated by Matt Singer: "It's about travel and love—and has a super easy summer vibe."
6) "Secret Lover" by That Work, as nominated by Lyndsey Butler of Veda: "It makes me want to be the last one on the dance floor."
7) "Home" by Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeros, as nominated by Sarah Fox of Cursive Design: "My husband and I are on a month-long road trip across the country. I've never been away from home/work for this long, and I'm curious to find the routines that make me feel grounded. That sense of home will probably come from my husband—I am always at home in his company, and that's what I love about this song."
8) "Beercan" by Beck, as nominated by Annie Larson of ALL Knitwear: "I have been listening to Beck a lot again this summer. It's still good—better, actually."
Until July 10, you can get a whole 25% off the editions these designers made for Of a Kind—just use the code SUMMEROFAKIND on any purchase. You're welcome!

Steve Mazur (Claire's Dad) Chooses His Top Five Of a Kind Editions
For our ode to Father's Day (this Sunday!), we asked the Of a Kind dads to play favorites. Last week, mine shared his list—and managed to get in multiple sports references—and this week, Claire's tremendously charming scientist father offers up his selections. No surprise: He likes the rocks and drops a physics term. —erica
"I have always been fascinated by minerals and the ways that their colors, patterns, and crystal shapes can be combined with man-made materials—the Double Crystal Studs by Better Late Than Never and the Surrounded Pendant Necklace are particularly original examples. In the latter, the banded agate works nicely with the crochet edge."
"The Orion Tunic by Ann Yee is pretty great—especially with the moire patterns that appear with back lighting. I imagine the effect is even better in motion than in the photos."
"The Trails Rucksack by Dusen Dusen has a really striking and original look. I'm tempted but probably don't have enough confidence to wear it in public." [Ed: We all need to do our part to convince him he can pull it off.]
"Textiles with highly detailed design always look interesting. The Field of Diamonds Tunic by Toujours Toi Family Affairs is especially nice, with its crisp pattern and beautiful color combination."

Field of Diamonds Tunic by Toujours Toi Family Affairs: "Subtle baseball inferences can be found using poetic license: Field of Dreams, the diamond…Anyway, I'm smitten with the silk fabric and its beauty and intricacy—just like America's pastime."
Trails Rucksack by Dusen Dusen: "With the advent of smaller laptops and now the iPad, I traded in my business briefcase for a backpack. Try it! You'll like it!"
Celia Bag by Rachel Nasvik: "The art of crafting leather made life in America possible for some of my ancestors. No synthetic will ever approach its attributes. In the inevitable remake of The Graduate, the man at the party might be uttering "leather" to Benjamin Braddock." [Ed: His grandfather (and then uncle) owned a shoe-repair business in St. Louis.]
Sulis Necklace by Erin Considine: "Rock beats scissors, scissors beat paper, paper beats Rock. But! Hands beat machine, end of story, and that's the draw of this singular piece, a conversation starter to the appreciative."
Ernie Bunny Bag by Mandy Coon: "Like everyone's new friend Nicky Gilbert says, 'What's not to like?'" [Ed: I bet the designer never saw that allusion to the NBA Draft coming.]

Of a Kind
When Claire put on the deep green tunic that Toujours Toi Family Affairs made for Of a Kind, we were pretty sure we could book her a gig at the Hollywood Bowl on the spot. The breezy little thing looks as good belted with tights as it does worn loose with a wedge. In a couple of months, I suspect I'll have to start dropping not-so-subtle hints that she should wear something else for a change. —erica
