Thanks for posting these articles. I didn't realize King retired in January 1975. I am even more perplexed, and curious why she would have come back for the last regular Slims event in Philadelphia. I know she played the 4 woman special in Austin, because that was the kind of event that really showcased women's tennis. (And amazing that as a semi-retired player, she nearly won it, almost knocking off young #1 Chrissie. Then again, seeing how Clijsters, Henin, and Date can comeback these days and do so well after retiring, it shouldn't be so surprising what King did in 1975, and again in 1977.)
Do you know when King made the decision to play Wimbledon in 1975?
PS - I think the 1975 Slims circuit was the first time all the events were played indoors. Prior to '75, the circuit was somewhat split and played throughout the year. They consolidated it into an indoor circuit beginning in 1975.

Those of you who recognize the title of this week's installment as a quote from the inestimable Doctor Emilio Lizardo may give yourselves one gold star. What did the good doctor mean? Stripped of everything else, all that remains is the character-the core of the being.
Too many games focus their attention upon character creation: the process of generating a character within the context of the rules. A far more interesting method is to focus on something that Lou Prosperi (former honcho of FASA's Earthdawn) drew my attention to recently: Character Definition. What goes into defining the characters? Or, more simply, who are the characters of this world, and what do they do there? Once you have defined the characters, creating them is much, much easier. Describing a character in terms of a game system is a simple thing. To define a character-explain what makes them tick, to give us the "why" as well as the "who".... Now that's difficult.
Early model games identified the primary considerations for character definition: who the characters are (race), and what the characters do (class). As games began to move away from the who/what dichotomy, they branched into the "how" method, defining a character by what they are capable of (skill/power systems). The 90s have been marked by games that define characters through a simplified amalgam of all previous methods, the template. Template games offer you the who, the what and the how in a single choice-whether that choice is called a template, a clan, a school, or a tribe. Your choice of template gives you your social identity (who), your functional identity (what), and a spread of abilities (how) that may be individualized within the parameters of that template.
A nice, simple system, to be sure-but offering less option in some ways, than the old "race/class" systems that are viewed by some as outdated. I mean, in the end, there's precious little difference between Brujah, for example...or Lion Clan samurai, or Get of Fenris, or Rebel Pilots.
For UnderWorld, it is my intention to return to the "who/what" dichotomy-defining characters by combining who they are with what they do. The "how"-the abilities of the characters, will be arrived at by a combination of the other two factors, and then through individualization. That last process, individualizing the results, is necessary. Combining finite options yields finite results. Characters should be infinite.
In UnderWorld, the "who" of a character-the character's race, if you will-will be referred to as the character's Breed. (Yes, the "Cabal" inspiration rears its head here). The Breed will give the character those things that come innately to them just because of who they are-innate abilities (seeing in the dark, resistance to magic, that sort of thing).
The "what" of a character-the class, or occupation-will be referred to as the character's Guild. The Guild will determine what abilities the character has by virtue of his chosen profession. The society of the UnderWorld will organize along these lines, with like occupations gathering in Guilds, for training and education. A character will have learned his trade from others of his Guild, and will have membership in that Guild, which will carry with it certain benefits. Note that it will be possible to have an un-Guilded character (a "normal" from our world, for example, wouldn't have any Guild training), but this will be, for obvious reasons, a rarity.
The combination of a character's Breed and Guild will give you a basic definition of the character, which is then customized to suit the player's concept.
Now, on to the meat: the specific Breeds and Guilds that will feature in UnderWorld. I will give only a brief overview here (after all, I have to save something for the rulebook itself!).
The Breeds that will be detailed in the basic rulebook are: Homeless, Freaks, Junkmen, Mole People, The Lost, Normals, Legendaries, and Nomads.
The Homeless are the rank-and-file members of the UnderWorld society. They make up the largest portion of the population in the tunnels, and have the ability to cross back and forth between the UnderWorld and the UpWord (our world) at will. Their close association with the UpWorld gives them a number of benefits not shared by the other Breeds, most important of which is that UpWorld technology will always work for them (normally, modern tech starts to fail as it goes further into the UnderWorld).
The Freaks are monsters. Whether they are the products of mutation, or of experimentation, or of natural evolution, it doesn't matter-they're all Freaks. Freaks must live in the UnderWorld, for they would be hunted and destroyed in our world. Each Freak is unique in appearance-some are animalistic, others hideously deformed. None may show their faces in the UpWorld. A Freak has innate abilities based upon their appearance (claws, wings, tentacles, etc.).
In another time and place, Junkmen might have been called Golems. A Junkman is an automaton created from discarded materials (the Salvage Tech that I mentioned in the last installment), that has been infused with the spirit of a ghost. A Junkman has abilities based on the tech incorporated into his form, as well as some abilities based upon the memories of his past life.
Mole People were once human, long ago. But after generation after generation of breeding and living in a subterranean world, they adapted to their environment. They are small, lithe creatures, with their senses attune to the realities of the UnderWorld. They cannot come to the surface, however-light harms them. Tales of "little people" living under hills were probably references to this Breed.
The Lost are normal humans who have wandered into the UnderWorld from another time, and are now unable to return. Many of the Lost wander into the UpWorld, where they are usually committed to institutions, diagnosed as psychotics. A few choose to remain in the UnderWorld, and eke out a life amongst the tunnels. As beings out of time, the Lost have, as a result, developed another sense, one that deals with the passage of time-some can even manipulate time to some small degree...but never enough to open the way home.
Normals are just that. Normal, everyday people from the UpWorld who somehow find themselves now entangled in the intrigues and adventures of the UnderWorld. Obviously, this the Breed that should be chosen for anyone who is playing a "discovery" campaign-portraying characters who are encountering this world for the first time.
Legendaries are the after-effects of continuous magical use. The magical properties of the UnderWorld create something akin to a magical background radiation. It is this property that messes with modern technology in the UnderWorld, for example. Sometimes, this energy coalesces, and spontaneously shapes itself into a being. Often, these become the monsters that inhabit the deepest tunnels-but sometimes, the spark of awareness is created, and a new lifeform is the result. Legendaries often take the form of archetypal ideas (think Candyman, as in the Clive Barker film)-the result of drawing their awareness from the collective unconscious of the millions of surrounding people.
Lastly, we have the Nomads. Nomads are people who were drawn to the UnderWorld in search of Immortality. Throughout the centuries, legends of subterranean locations have been tied to the quest for immortality. K'un L'un with its magical peaches. The Fountain of Youth. Fairyland. Nomads have found the object of their quest. They are, indeed, immortal-unaging. However, they have also lost all memory of the time before their bestowed immortality. They now wander, searching the UnderWorld for anything that will trigger the memory of who they once were.
There are other possibilities, of course, but these will be the basic Breeds covered in the main rulebook. Other supplements may perhaps detail others.
So, now we've examined the "who" of the character. Next week, we will examine the "what"-the Guilds that will be presented in the main rules.
Until next week;

Hawaiian Luau
- p
- passionwithfood Jul 17, 2008 11:28 PM
Hi There!
I'm helping my friends celebrate their 25th anniversary with a Hawaiian themed dinner. (I know it's cliche, but they had their honeymoon in Hawaii) I already decided that I would make Kalua Pork from the grill and probably some simple grilled salmon.
However, I'm having a difficult time deciding what other dishes (particularly accompanying carbohydrates) to make for the meal. I'm aiming to make all the guests (mostly hardcore Italians) comfortable - so things like Poi, raw fish and other acquired tastes probably wouldn't work well.
What do you think would be appropriate side dishes for this meal? Thanks for all the help!
You need to make some white rice to go with your grinds!
Do they sell taro bread/rolls on the mainland??? That could work for some bread.
Also sweet potatoes (especially Okinawa kind) and mac salad are popular star!ch/carb items.
Anyways, what are you making for dessert?
Malama pono!
some other threads on a similar topic may help. i thought of rice. so not much of a contribution. coconut custard pie?
http://www.chowhound.com/topics/43229... (emme has good suggestions, esp. that mango bread sounds great.) here is a recipe that looks good, http://food.meltingonline.com/2008/05...
but i'm still looking for one i thought i bookmarked from an indian food blog.
ah, here it is, with ginger: http://whatsforlunchhoney.blogspot.co...
mango pudding? http://saffrontrail.blogspot.com/2006...
maybe with shredded fresh coconut on top? mmmmmm good!
mango coconut ice cream? yowza! http://saffrontrail.blogspot.com/2007...
another mango coconut bread: http://coconutlime.blogspot.com/2006/...

look in the index to trader vic's tiki party cookbook on amazon: http://www.amazon.com/gp/reader/15800...
re: alkapal
Thanks so much for recommending the Tiki party cookbook. I browsed through the index and came up with some great ideas for a future party that I'll be hosting. The index was so good, I may just go and buy the book.
re: othervoice
othervoice. you're welcome! i love trader vic and the amazon "search inside" feature!
an all things luau decorating site, including essential luau music cd!
Mac salad is a definite. Italians love their pasta! Rice is also an obvious option, whether you choose to make plain white or gussy it up by cooking it with coconut milk and sesame. Sweet rolls like one can get at a Portuguese or Filipino bakery would also work. On the side, perhaps you can try serving seaweed salad, crab salad with jicama, tempura (varied vegetable, perhaps coconut shrimp). For beverages you can play it safe with the Polynesian classics, garnished with orchids and fresh fruit ice cubs, but take a chance on their palates with a dessert of haupia.
re: JungMann
mmm, crab salad with jicama!
king's hawaiian (sweet) bread recipe clone: http://www.cdkitchen.com/recipes/recs...
ooooh, look at this pineapple sangria (fusion to love, love, love):
How about grilled spam. OK, not a truly traditional dish, but Hawaiians are some of the top spam eaters in the world.
Might be a hit - maybe not taste wise, but certainly a conversation starter!
I saw rice cooked in bamboo awhile back. OK, again, not traditional Hawaii, but surely a tropical theme - and you can almost do individual portions.
How about taro leaf - very traditional here. Can do quite a bit; make a soup, make a gratin, make a seasoned leafy side veg, wrap up just about anything in the leaves with herbs and bake.
Making kalua pig on the grill sounds delicious. Do you have a recipe? I usually make mine in the oven, no imu here.
Rather than the grilled salmon, you should do lomi lomi salmon and/or ahi poke.
Agree that a white rice side dish will be welcome, to soak up the juices from your pork and fish dishes. Plain white rice is traditional, but coconut rice is a nice touch as well.
As for other side dishes, Japanese-inspired sides go very well with Hawaiian mains. You could do a cucumber side, like sunomono, or goma-ae (spinach in sesame sauce, or go for a more Hawaiian variant, like seaweed in the "ae" style). Eggplant with miso would be good as well.
Personally, I'm not a big fan of macaroni salad, even if it is traditional. I'd go for a sweet potato side, maybe tempura-battered sweet potato, or cold sesame noodles. Browniebaker's recipe in this thread has a good recipe for the noodles:
Less traditional, but a salad that compliments a Hawaiian theme nicely is this recipe for "Super Slaw," an asian-inspired coleslaw with peanut dressing:
Well, here are a few dishes using the same ingredient (cllophane noodles) that is about as Hawaiian as you can get without throwing a virgin into Mauna Loa. It is a little "exotic," but since it looks like glass angel hair pasta, your Italian friends should have no problem with it. I'm not recommending you do all three recipes, but I'm offering three that range from fairly plain and served hot/warm, to a colorful and tasty cold salad ideal for a luau menu, but none are difficult.
In case you're not familiar with collophane noodles, they're also called bean thread or "long rice." I have NO idea how they ever came to be known as long "rice" because first of all, there ARE noodles made with rice but thse aren't it, and second of all, it isn't shaped anything close to rice! It's most often made from mung beans, which are the same bean as bean sprouts come from. They're packaged in long "threads" that are all rolled up, and until they're soaked, they're tough as rope. Extremely nutritious and very low fat compared to most other noodles.
EDIT! Instead of "unwrap the bean thread", as I wrote in the following paragraph, I should have said, "take the bean thread out of the package... ..." It comes all twisted and I do not mean "unwrap" it from that condition! Sorry for any confusion.
ALL of these recipes seem to assume you're familar with prepping cellophane noodles, so let me cover the basics. First unwrap the bean thread and put the whole "bundle" (or two) in a bowl filled with plenty of warmish (not hot) water to cover and let them soak for twenty minutes or so. Next drain them in a colander and cut them into about two to three inch lengths. You can put them on a cutting board and slice with a chef's knife, or you can put them back in the empty soaking bowl and randomly cut through them with a pair of clean scissors. The second mothod is less precise, so I use a knife for company, scissors for family. After the soaking to soften them and help them turn transparent, they are cooked for three to five minutes. NEVER trust a recpe that tells you to cook cellophane noodles for twenty minutes or more. You'll end up with a bowl full of stringy Jell-O! Short of that, they are delicious!
Here's the first recipe. It's for "chicken long rice" a Hawaiian tradition:
I chose this recipe because of the dozens of recipes for the dish on the web, this is most accurate on prep and cooking time, but you might look at some of those other recipes for aditional ingredient ideas. For buffets, I drain it and serve with sauce seperate the same as the following recipe.
This recipe is for chicken hekka:
Again, it doesn't define "serving pieces" for the chicken very well. I don't use legs, thighs and breasts, but cut the chicken (white and/or dark meat) into small bite size pieces the way I cut it for most Chinese stir fry dishes. I also dice the skin seperately and add it a bit before the chicken so it crisps. And if you can't find baboo shoots, don't worry about it. It's still good without them!
And finally, here's a cold salad using cellophane noodles:
This one is my favorite for a luau or any kind of party where you want a great cold dish that is main course and sides all in one. Oh, and "won bok" is napa cabbage, not bok choy.
I also make another salad very similar to this one bit omit the cabbage, chicken, and mint and use cold diced or sliced/shredded prosciutto or Parma ham instead. It's delicious too, and you don't have to boil a chicken on a hot summer's day!
Whatever you cook, have a great luau!
re: Caroline1
That last salad you make, sounds delicious what do you mean you the procuitto or ham instead..of what? Its early yet, do you mean I can sub the ham for the procuitto? oh goodness, maybe I should go back to bed,
We go to concerts in the park Thursday evenings, I would take this for my dinner!
re: chef chicklet
Instead of the boiled chicken in this reccipe: http://tinyurl.com/6ldgce
The same basic recipe is also good if you replace the chicken with lightly boiled squid rings and tentacles, in which case I toss the mint back in. If you can get enough tentacles to just use those, then you've got cellophane salad and tempura calimari! And one more guest.... ME!
Do they still have Sunday afternoon concerts in Stern Grove? God, I loved those...! Lots of great events at Stern Grove back then. You made me remember them..Thanks! ;-)
Hawaii has a few different ethnic groups, Japanese, Filipino, Chinese to name a few. Caroline's suggestions are good. Or there is a Filipino noodle dish I make, Pancit. Using the same noodles, shrimp, veggies etc. It all looks good~
or I made these for a party, Pork Meatballs with pineapple in sweet and sour sauce.These goooo fast. You can keep them in the crockpot or put them on picks and use the sweet sour sauce to dip it in. (actually made these in the crockpot with frozen meatballs for an office party) Started them in the am, they were done at noon. oh sorry just remembered, you wanted carb sides!!!
Hawaiian bread rolls- for the kahula pork to make little sandwiches with your toppings.
re: chef chicklet
chef, have you posted the recipe for the pork before? i did a search to no avail....
re: alkapal
I can't even remember what I did yesterday!!!
I don't think I have. But if you would like the recipe I will be happy to recreate it. It too is one that I had in files I lost.
But I need to do this anyway so I don't mind at all. Give a few hours to get it together and I'll post it. I have made this the both the speedy version and from scratch and love them both.
re: chef chicklet
cool! thanks! i know it will be good.
re: alkapal
Alkapal, well I didn't trust my memory, and so.... we are having this very dish tonight for dinner. My hubby is thrilled, however, last count, I think I only have 20 meatballs left. That is the downside of cooking something that smells enormously good all dang day.
I know he can't wait, and now I'm focusing on dessert.....
Have fun. I'll post the speedy version which only means speedy in the way of preparing ingredients not actual cooking time, tomorrow!
Chinese Sweet & Sour Pork Meatballs
In a Crock Pot
1 T of vegetable oil
1 Medium white onion chopped 1/8 inch small dice– Spanish is ok
1 Red or green bell pepper chopped small
1 1/2 T minced fresh garlic or grated
1 1/2 T grated fresh ginger root
2 T cornstarch mixed with 2T water – for a slurry
Turn the Crockpot on high, let it heat up, add the oil
Mix the liquids in a bowl:
1 can crushed pineapple-juice incl.
1/4 C white sugar
1/2 C Dark Brown sugar
!/2 C ketchup
2 T dark soy sauce; I prefer, Pearl River a rich dark soy/sauce
1 tsp toasted sesame seed oil
1 T Sriracha chili sauce - this is fairly hot- go slow for the addition to the recipe
1/3 C apple cider vinegar-adds a fruity note, or use what you want
Add this all to the Crockpot give it a good stir, and put the lid on it, temp should be on high.
Make the meatballs.
Pork Meat Balls
1 lb ground pork - cold
1 large egg beaten well
1 ½ T dry cornstarch
2 T scallions minced fine
2 T grated ginger root
2 T minced scallion
2 T minced water chestnut
1 T toasted sesame seed oil
1 1/2 T dry sherry
2 T dark soy sauce – or light
1 T sriacha chili sauce
1 egg beaten well
1 T salt
1 T white pepper
Keep the pork cold until you're ready to use.
After the sauce is made and in the crock pot, begin the meatballs.
Into a large bowl add the ground pork, and the well beaten egg. Add the cornstarch, the minced green onion, minced water chestnuts. Squish the meat mix with your hands, and then add the liquids, mix well. Add the cornstarch last. Put the bowl of seasoned ground pork into the refrigerator and let it chill for a half an hour at least.
Use a tablespoon (best to use a measuring spoon with a large bowl to it if you can) Scoop a Tablespoon of the meat mixture, and then with wet hands, toss the meat back and forth between "cupped' hands. This will shape your meatball nicely without pressing, keep them at walnut size, no larger for best appetizer and as a main entreee.
About 30 meatballs
Bake at 350 degrees 12-15 minutes on a cookie sheet sprayed with Pam or silpat.
The meatballs should just be cooked, do not overcook or they will be dry.
Take the sauce out of the Crockpot, put it in a sauce pan, and bring it to a boil to thicken the cornstarch. After it's thickened, put the sauce back into the crock pot.
Stir well, & add the meatballs to the crock pot. Taste the sauce and let it cook; after 2 hours, adjust the vinegar or sugar to your taste. You can add sriracha at this point or wait until you serve the meatballs at the table, allowing diners to do so then.
Let the meatballs cook at least 6-7 hours total in the crockpot. The flavors will meld, and the meatballs will take on the pineapple sweet and sour sauce (hot).
You can if you want, add another can or add additional fresh pineapple to the Crockpot 10 minutes before serving. I've made this dish many times. Canned pineapple works well in this dish.
Serves 4 generous portions
Accompaniments: Jasmine rice,
Purple or white cabbage slaw with onion and rice vinegar dressing
Top with sliced scallions, cilantro, and sesame seeds; or unsalted slivered almonds/
Additional sides would be fresh sliced tomatoes and bell peppers, fresh slices of pineapples or grilled pineapple.
Enjoy darling!
re: chef chicklet
Well I thought I took pictures, and what it appears I did was take a movie of my plated food!
oh well. sorry, but to report on the dish, the sauce is very very good. I make this amount of sauce because we love it over the rice..
oh wait I found them! I thought I had accidentally deleted them!
re: chef chicklet
CC, I've printed your recipe out to try this weekend....I noticed that you have "2 Tablespoons scallion" listed twice in the ingredients for the meatballs...can you please elaborate? Was it just a double-listing of the same ingredient or is something else supposed to go into the mix, such as garlic? Thanks!
re: Sarah
Say prayer. Kill and bleed big guy pig. Ask for blessing. Skin and cut in parts. Dig big hole in sand; build big wood fire over round rocks. Wrap pig parts in taro and then ti leaves; put in other stuff. Put some hot rocks on bottom of hole, then pig and stuff; put green stake pointed down and touching meat; heap all hot rocks and sand on top. After many hours, push down on stake. Ready when stake say pig ready.
re: Sam Fujisaka
Nice recipe, Sam!
We were in the Cook Islands awhile back. While on Rarotonga, I kept smelling what I thought was burning garbage. (as a kid everyone in my small town burned their household garbage in their backyard in an old 55 gallon drum - so the odor was ingrained).
Turned out it wasn't garbage at all; it was the odor of steaming/burning taro leaves covering neighborhood umus...
this is a great cookbook for the record: "pacific bounty; hawaii cooks with roy yamaguchi" (and other chefs there in hawaii, from kqed) isbn 0-9123333-23-5
re: alkapal
reallyyyyy? I'm going to check it out. Love roy.
re: chef chicklet
yep, cc, got some ideas there that i love: e.g.,
burnt cream with kona coffee
roasted shiitake salad with ginger tomato vinaigrette
roasted eggplant soup with ginger and basil
roasted peking-style duck with candied pecans in a lilikoi (passionfruit) sauce
flourless red banana cake
fresh kona oysters with hawaiian vinaigrette
opakanaka charmoula-style with grilled vegetable gratin
shrimp salad with mango and grapes, sweet and sour coconut vibaigrette
gosh, sweet gal, i could go on and on.... check it out...
btw, you are a treasure!
re: alkapal
correction: kona oysters with hawaiian mignonette.
and thanks, cc, for your recipe....looks great.
re: alkapal
oh my goodness, thank you for saying that.
Thank you from the bottom of my 20yr + carbon steel wok
(you know how much I treasure that piece!)
Doesn't Hawaiian sound all so wonderful right now or is it just me?
I'm doing baby pork ribs tonight, so I'm really watching this thread for ideas...
re: chef chicklet
i'm keying in on the mai tais and pineapple sangria! ;=P
Alkapal suggested a Roy Yamaguchi cookbook, I would also say to check out Sam Choy, another star. You've gotten some great suggestions! I don't think anyone else has mentioned it, so I will suggest haupia for dessert; Sam Choy (and many others, I'm sure) has a nice option for serving it in a mac. nut crust. Also, Kalua Pork is traditionally done in the oven, unless you happen to want to dig a big pit in your backyard and do it the traditional way as Sam so beautifully posted above. You can order Hawaiian Portugese sausage online at zippys.com and a Maui Onion salad dressing that I love (okay, maybe not traditional luau fare) here http://www.islandergifts.com/hawaiian... You may be able to find Kings Hawaiian brand bread and rolls in your local grocery.
You might search for Haupia, a coconut dessert which is often served at home luaus as well as Kanten a gelatin dessert. The latter is made with Kanten... a seaweed that you buy in "sticks"either red or green. You flavor with your choice... I liked thered flavored with cinnamon candies. The deal is you make this gelatin and it is very like jello. Cut it into squares, and it never melts or softens so the kids can eat it with their hands.
The appetizer I still make for guests here is a version of lomi salmon. Cut a small slice off the stem end of a cherry tomato. Scoop out the insides. Stuff with smoked oysters (from a can), one per tomato and serve.
re: Beach Chick
beach chick, for a quick lilikoi fix, try yoplait's passion fruit yogurt.
re: HannahBanana
I just made this in a somewhat different format..trifle dish layered with pound cake, 1 grilled fresh pineapple soaked in creme de cacao then carmelized on the grill, cored and cubed and topped with vanilla pudding and fresh whip cream with a dash of tahitian vanilla bean...outstanding and it was such a hit.

Sorry to respond using this reply key, but the individual reply keys are not working for me.
Val the dble green onion, one is T minced garlic, sorry.
Caroline, I don't know Stearn Grove, where is that? We sooo love the concerts, we are so lucky there are many, some in parks, or vineyards. I'm there. I love your recipe, I'll try it. I am oh so foo foo, I have the little Chinese take out boxes, chopsticks and all. Wish you could go with!
Gourmanda, I have had that Maui Onion dressing before and it is delicious! Thanks for the link.. Sam Choy, wow is there anything that he makes that isn't good? All of his food looks so wonderful, I love his style. I've tried a few of his recipes a while ago, and they were perfect. I think something he made on Emeril Live. he has no problem with adding spices and flavor, now that is my kinda cook!
This has been a most enjoyable thread, sometimes I forget the cuisine of the Islands and it has stirred a lot of old memories for me. On top of that, there is so much to learn about the diverse heritage and history!
My parents lived there when my Dad was in the Navy, (well so did I, Hawaii and Guam when I was 3-4) and I was introduced to flavors and cooking techniques very young. Oh yea, you bet I remember the pit. My Dad and his friends did that, probably every weekend, and he could make fish and chicken (using his "marinades" like nobody's business.We got pictures! Not always was there a pig, there were many things in the pit, actually it was mostly a party if I my little brain remembers...let's just say my parents knew how to have fun.
re: chef chicklet
Wow, this website is in serious trouble! I have responded twice before and they never show up! Let's see if the third time is a charm?
My goof! It's STERN Grove, not "Stearn." Nothing maratime about it. And I checked the web, and yes! Their great free concerts are still going on! You'll find all sorts of information here:
And very appropriate to this thread, the concert on 10 Aug will be Hawaiian, so pack up your luau, grab a hula skirt, and go get leid...!
I shamefully cannot resist bad puns. Sorry.
Stern Grove is at 19th and Sloat, and you can drive by it a gazillion times and never notice it's there... Until you drive by when a concert is going on, then you wonder if every car in northern California is parked around there.
At the website, you'll see you can sign up for a drawing for picnic tables. But you can also take a picnic blanket (and basket) and sit on the grass. My favorite spot was always on the elevated slopes that "cup" the bandstand. The whole place is a natural bowl, so the accoustics are good wherever you are. And no one blocking your view whe you picnic on the slopes the way people bouncing up and down at the picnic tables do. You do have to go early to get a good spot, but with plenty of great food, drink, and friends along, who cares?
Parking can be tricky unless you get there really early. It used to almost all residential, and I always pitied the folks who lived around there on concert Sundays!
Wish it had come up earlier so you could have gotten in on more of the season. It's almost over! I've seen several performances by the SF Opera in Stern Grove, and if you like opera, you can't beat the price!!! Or the cast and orchestra! I see they're the last concert of the season. Can't remember if it's always been so, or if they alternate with SFSO. Anyway, these have very long been top treats for anyone who finds out about them. Enjoy!
Have fun, and if you make it on the 10th, we'll expect no less than a complete rundown of your luau and their music! '-)
re: Caroline1
I had a fabulous macadamia nut pie for dessert in Hawaii last month. It was just like a pecan pie but made with chopped macadamias.

Sounds delicious! I'm looking for a magic machine that cooks the calories out of any food but leaves all the texture and flavor. Then I can eat all the good stuff everyone talks about here... '-)
re: Caroline1
Oh Caroline thank you for showing me this park!!! I vaguely remember it. I used to trek to SFand Berkely almost weekly a few years ago, and now I'm lazy. But BIG BUT, I am going to get going again. The baby is a little easier now to transport, I don't have to bring the huge diaper bag, the chilled food bag, the pac&play,and all the oodles of things needed for babies.SOOOOOO, I think next year we can definitley, hop on bart and transfer to muni. Did that with the other sons all the time. How exciting, you just gave me a rush, because I'm getting memories back of when I did these day trips before! But how cool is that park? Can't wait to show it to dh, he's always bugging me to go somewhere. looks like the shows are closed out, but I will keep this in my calendar for future events. I just love SF and Berkely, and I need to get back in the groove.
Thank you so much my new friend!
and just another little note, there are so many cool little parks in SF, just walking around one can find so many little treasures. Our agenda has so many fine historical destinations, and I love reliving the adventure each time I go. The musums, and YES I go to the opera, and so will the baby.toooooo fun! Even smaller little towns like Walnut Creek have some interesting places and shows.Count me in!
Do you have lots to do there?
re: chef chicklet
There is, but I don't think there are many places on the planet that can measure up to the Bay Area. I've been away a long time now. Last time I lived there, you could go for afternoon tea at a museum tea shop next to (or on?) the Stanford Campus, and possibly end up with Shirley Temple Black as your server! It was a fund raising endeavor, and great fun. And, as I said, a loooooooooooong time aqo!
re: lucyis
I make pecan pie for my VA born and raised hubby. I bet he'd love this.
re: Caroline1
Wow...too funny...my 26 year old son is moving to SF on August 4th...he just visited there during 1st week of July and went to Stern Grove to see a concert and just loved the entire place! He kept talking about how nice that park is. He'll be there in time for the Hawaiian concert, too. Thanks for this post!
oh dear passionwithfood, I forgot about my crazy coconut pie!
Its sooo easy, and everyone just loves it. I can't explain the science and chemistry behind it, all I know is that you don't have to make a pie crust, and then if you want to, you can add some whip cream or even just warm sweetened cream to the pie. We love love love this dessert. Was that enuf love?
Here is a the link and the recipe. I strongly suggest, you won't be disappointed...

De gustibus non est disputandum
Anonymous asked: Love your blog! Quick question: What are your thoughts on tailoring ties to make them slimmer? I am thinking of splurging on a PRL tie, however it's 3.5" wide and I prefer my ties to only be 2.5" wide in order for them to match the width of my lapels. However, it would cost me $20-30 more to have the tie narrowed. Should I keep looking to find the right tie straight away? The tie is pretty specific, it's their madison dog tie, and I checked eBay to find similar ties but no luck there.
Thanks. It's pretty simple to slim a tie up, and a good tailor can get that done for you pretty quick. Seems like you know what you want and have checked in with your tailor on his capabilities. In that case, I would splurge and make the purchase, as I doubt you'll find that specific Madison tie in a different width. Just so you know though, J. Press has something similar in a slimmer width.

LONDON, Nov. 8 (UPI) — Energy efficiency and new technology are expected to lead to a sea change in the international oil use, a consultant said.
A report from industrial consultant company Ricardo Strategic Consulting concluded that oil demand in 2035 is expected to be 3 percent less than global 2010 levels of 87.4 million barrels of oil per day.
Peter Hughes, managing director of energy at Ricardo, was quoted by London's Daily Telegraph newspaper as saying "the world is nearing a paradigm shift in oil demand."
Ricardo finds that new technologies in biofuels, energy products generated from agriculture, will drive the shift in oil consumption.
Hughes said that concerns over food and the use of biofuels are misconstrued because the sector is constrained more by a lack of investments than supply.
"If crop yields increase at historic rates, there will be enough surplus conventional fuel crops to displace a significant amount of fossil fuels," the report from Ricardo read.
The consultant group finds that oil demand should peak sometime before 2020.

This script looks at the current status of the DAG to find the children of
the current branch, runs an action, then rebases those children. It is
particularly useful for users of
git-svn, who may find themselves
having to rebase all topic branches (and sub-topics which build off those) every
time they
git svn rebase or
git svn dcommit.
For pure git projects, this is considered by many to be bad form, so use with discretion. People who like a linear history might like it.
I expect the script, in its current state, will fail in cases where the
rebase can't be done automatically, but for simple day-to-day operations it
git-svn that bit less painful to use :-)
I have an alias set up to invoke it with
git rar ("Run and Rebase"), so that I can type, for example,
git rar svn rebase.

Garcia ease
By Barry Alleyne | Thu, October 25, 2012 - 12:10 AM
Raul Garcia remains a detained man.
But he should sleep a bit easier this week, after a High Court judge yesterday intervened to improve conditions under which he was being detained by the Immigration Department.
Efforts to earn his complete freedom, however, will have to wait another 28 days.
Justice Margaret Reifer yesterday granted a number of private concessions to the detained Cuban-born, American-raised and Barbadian-rehabilitated former drug dealer, which should make living conditions easier at the house in Dalkeith, St Michael, where he is confined. But an application by his attorneys claiming he is being unlawfully detained won't be heard until November 21.
Justice Reifer met with Garcia's lawyer David Comissiong and Donna K. Brathwaite, attorney for the Minister Responsible for Immigration and the Chief Immigration Officer, for almost two hours yesterday to mediate an amelioration of Garcia's conditions.Please read the full story in today's DAILY NATION, or in the eNATION edition.

- I guess we should not be shocked if on November 21st Mr. Garcia is granted his permanent resident status in Bim if he is to be no longer detained. Under our immigration laws, is one allowed to work if not a permanent resident or have a work visa? How will he take care of himself if not granted residence - will he become a welfare recipient? We should be careful of the precedents we set

- Is he unlawfully detained? Under the Immigration Act CAP 190, it says he's to be deported. Aren't those lawful grounds for detainment? I'm looking at section 21, which gives the government as much time as is needed (to not only detain someone) but for the time it takes to deport them. Under section 22, I believe it provides the Crown with immunity until a destination can be found. Garcia' breaking of laws all along the way has put him into this situation. His best bet is petition the G.G. for a pardon, or find a host country willing to take him. My message to him, start writing! Netherlands has decriminalised druguse he could always try there for example they might grant him status either there or some of the Dutch isles.
- Posted by RANDY BRIDGEMAN 2 years ago
Seems to me Mr. Comissiong is using a common tactic in vogue nowadays: accuse an opponent (real or perceived) of being a hater which tends to put the latter on the defensive. Not working in your client Mr. Garcia's case, Comrade. Won't be surprised if Mr. Comissiong's next move is to file a petition seeking permanent residence for his client in Barbados.
Bajans for the most part have acknowledged that Mr. Garcia has served time for the very serious crime of dealing in the illicit drug trade, therefore should enjoy total freedom. The question is where he will enjoy this freedom. What we are in a disagreement with is the fact that he continues to reside in our country at taxpayer's expense. He's being housed, clothed and fed by our government. Perhaps I've missed it but I haven't read thus far, that either he or his sponsor have thanked the Barbados government for supplying these things gratis.
One would think that granting Mr. Garcia residence status or citizenship would be totally out of the question. In my view, the government would be wrong if it let him loose in our country, given his previous conviction as well as the twin facts that he's neither a citizen or legal resident of Barbados. The temptation for Mr. Garcia to get involved in drug trafficking again which would be detrimental to our society if it happened, may be too great. Risky business.
Wonder if our government has considered asking Mr. Chavez's Venezuela to accept this stateless man. Mr. Chavez is chummy with the leadership of our Caribbean neighbor to the north and may be apt to take Mr. Garcia off our hands as a favor to the regime there.

- @ J PAYNE.... REWIND THE TAPE,1. information was in place to justify search of garcia at our port of entry,2.holding cells port of entry are considered neutral ground,you may be held there,without being officially allowed into the country.3.barbados made a decision to accept garcia and prosecute him here, they had choices, the choice they made allowed the usa to deny all rights to garcia. he was a convicted felon in a foreign country.this is why garcia is deemed stateless. eat crow, be responsible for the decision that we made, and stop risking our countries good record in human rights... ps. remember the great train robbery.. the last fugitive lived in open luxury in our squeaky clean island, was it because he was white and came from europe?

What are the pros?
What are the cons?
This is a great plant for gardeners with sandy soils. Typical celery has low tolerance for less than the best soil, while this plant is like parsley in its growth habit and soil tolerance, and yet has strong celery flavor. I am in z7 so I expect it to over-winter and self-sow in spring. Using the seeds for flavoring will be quite welcome.
Would you recommend this product to a friend?
