Kimi Raikkonen
Q: You've achieved more wins at Spa than any other track, but at Monza you have none; time to rectify that?
KR: It's true that I have never won in Italy. For one reason or another things just haven't worked out for me, but it doesn't mean I can't drive the track. Just because I have not won at a circuit in the past it doesn't mean that I won't win or get a good result there in the future. It is true that I have previously had some very competitive weekends there - once or twice I have been close to the win - but something has always gone wrong. Hopefully we will have a real chance to fight for that victory this time.
Q: How do you feel about Monza as a venue?
KR: It's a historical place with a unique design where we achieve very high speeds. It's a real challenge for everyone to be running so fast and a really good feeling in the car. It's the home of the Tifosi and there will be a lot of Finnish fans there too. The atmosphere is just out of reach for every other Grand Prix. It's great to go there with everything working well in your car and see how quickly you can go. It's the place where we go really, really fast.
Q: What about the challenges of the circuit?
KR: Monza always gives a great challenge. It's so different compared with the more modern circuits as the layout means the car needs to be set up differently. To go fast at Monza you need a car that is good aerodynamically, stable over the kerbs, and has a strong engine as we are using full throttle for most of the lap. I think we should be pretty good in those areas, but we won't know exactly how good until we get out on track.
Q: How do you think Monza should suit the E21?
KR: It's a unique circuit with the high speeds achieved there and everyone will be running the lowest level of downforce we see all year. Low downforce has not always been the best for our car, but the factory has been working hard to get more speed and stability for us with some changes to the car. Let's wait and see how the car goes on Friday morning and then we'll have a better idea of what can be achieved.
Q: How do you feel about the DNF you experienced in Spa?
KR: Obviously it was not the first time I've had to finish a race early, and most likely it won't be the last time either. That said, I'm here to race and I want to finish every time, so for sure what happened in Spa was not what we were looking for and not ideal for the championship.
Q: What could you feel in the car?
KR: There were some brake issues at the beginning of the race but we were managing them and it was going OK. We knew the brakes were hot and you could see the smoke, but I was still able to brake okay until a part failed and there was no way I could continue.
Q: Was it a shame to see your unbroken records come to an end?
KR: We knew the day would come. We had such a long period of time with the best reliability of all, so it was only natural that one day luck would go against us.
Romain Grosjean
Q: How much are you looking forward to racing at Monza?
RG: Very much. It's a race I wasn't allowed to contest last season and as a racing driver all you want to do is race, so I can't wait to take to the track for the first time in practice on Friday morning. It's a very historic venue; a beautiful circuit in a fantastic location and racing there is always great. It's a special feeling when you are blasting through the park along the Monza straights, and there are so many really enthusiastic fans there. I have to admit though, it's not only the racing I'm looking forward to as Italian cuisine is superb. I'll be visiting a couple of restaurants during my stay...
Q: What are the challenges of the circuit?
RG: For the designers, you need to have a car that's very slippery through the air. Then for the engineers, you have to make the correct decision on gearing to make the most of the slippery car and engine power along the straights. For the driver in the car, there are a couple of heavy braking areas where you are slowing from the highest speeds of the year, so you have to be careful to get your braking right otherwise you can overshoot the corner. You see that quite a few times over the weekend.
Q: Any other considerations?
RG: It can be quite hot there sometimes and it can be hard on the tyres. Considering that this is where we seem to have an advantage with our car, let's hope for both! You use the kerbs quite a bit, which looks good on the slow motion cameras but you certainly know about it in the car! Basically, it's a pretty great track.
Q: What are your memories of this circuit?
RG: I was on the podium last time I raced at Monza, which was in the GP2 Series in 2011. Wouldn't it be great to return to the podium this year? That's what we're trying for, of course, so let's see what happens.
Q: You had a different strategy to your competitors in Spa; could there be a similar approach at Monza?
RG: At Spa, considering where we were in the first half of the race, we had to attempt something a bit different as raw pace wasn't our strong point. Then, with the new tyres I felt that the grip was much higher than before, but I knew that it would be difficult to get the time back. We tried something different and you never know; had it rained in the middle of the race we could have been well-placed to take advantage. For Monza, we won't know what we will do until we've run in the practice sessions, checked all the data and then after qualifying - when we know our grid position - we'll decide the options for strategy. Even then it's not decided, as you have to adapt in the race. Let's see what happens.
Q: You're P8 in the drivers' championship and have been scoring points consistently these last few races; that's a positive aspect?
RG: Yes, Spa was the third grand prix in a row that I've been in the points which is good for the championship. There are races where we are fast and everything goes well like in Germany, then there are races when it isn't as easy like in Spa, so to be still scoring points when things are a little more tricky is positive. Let's hope Monza is positive.

Not all Slimmy Slims are sized similarly
By Dr. R
from Berkeley CA
About Me Classic
Comments about 7 For All Mankind Slimmy Slim Straight in No Fade Black Black Black:
This is my fifth pair of slimmy slims and the sizing is very inconsistent, even when you buy the same fabrics (e.g. 97% cotton). I am a 31, when I ordered these in 31 they were about 3 inches too small. I ordered another pair with similar fabric and had to go to a 32, then yet another pair with 98% cotton and had to get a 34. Crazy sizing makes it impossible to buy online, you have to try them on in person. Too bad because the customer service online is excellent, their helpdesk is a model one, all other online merchants should follow suit.
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Lint Lover
By MK1976
from Canada
Completely agree with the other review. They attract an amazing amount of lint making them a serious pain to wear. A real pain in the butt when they are a great, deep colour of black. Unfortunate and highly recommend you pass on these jeans.

They're Black, Black, Black but…
By Tony
from Chicago, Illinois
While these Black, Black, Black Slimmys are wonderful to look at, boy are they a pain to wear. Whatever the finishing process is that 7 used on this pant, it loves, loves, loves lint. Whenever I wear them, I spend more time brushing link off that attaches more easily than any pant I've ever owned from 7. Since the black is very black, you see everything speck. When you're out on the town, don't forget you link brush!The other con of this Slimmy pant and other Slimmys of late, is that the cut width seems to have been increased in the leg. I have many Slimmys from years past and the cut on the leg is not the same, beware. My old Slimmys fit like a glove, while the new cut leaves lots of room in the leg. I'm finding that the fit of today Slimmy is comparable to the Standard of years past. Not happy about that.

According to the American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery, there were more online searches at http://www.gpeck.com for cosmetic surgery last year than in any year prior. A lot of this has to do with the rebounding economy. Other factors are improved affordability and less invasive procedures due to technological advances. The American Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery also released some interesting and revealing numbers for 2013.
The most interesting stat is that the number of cosmetic procedures in 2013 increased 12% year over year. Taken all together, there were 11 million cosmetic procedures last year (surgical and non-surgical). The total revenue generated from these procedures was north of $12 billion. That's the first time the number has gone north of $12 billion since 2008 – the beginning of The Great Recession. Part of the reason for this is because the high-end consumer is benefiting greatly from stock market and home price appreciations. In other words, high-end consumers are performing well with their investments. This has a lot to do with the low interest rate environment. Regardless of the reason, if we break down the revenue number above, $7 billion of that revenue was generated from surgical procedures, and $5 billion was generated from non-surgical procedures.
Another interesting stat is that liposuction was more popular than breast augmentation in 2013. Liposuction saw a significant year-over-year increase of 16.3% to 363,912 procedures, totaling more than $1 billion in revenue. For total procedures, breast augmentation finished second with 313,327 procedures, down 5.2% from 2012. Eyelid surgery was a distant third with 161,389 procedures, a 5.4% increase over 2012. Finishing right behind eyelid surgery was tummy tuck surgery with 160,077 procedures, a 2.3% year-over-year increase. Nose surgery saw a 2.9% increase to 147,966 procedures.
Those were the most popular cosmetic procedures performed in the United States in 2013, but none of them were the fastest growing procedures. There are two other procedures growing at rampant rates. The first is buttock augmentation, which saw a 58% increase in procedures on a year-over-year basis. Right behind that was labiaplasty, which saw a 44% increase in procedures in 2013.
If you're wondering about the female vs. male breakdown, there was a significant difference. Women accounted for 90.6% of the cosmetic procedures in 2013. This demonstrated a 471% increase since 1997. It's abundantly clear that the cosmetic surgery industry is continuously growing.

A well regulated militia, being necessary to the security of a free state, the right of the people to keep and bear arms, shall not be infringed. Those words speak only freedom and liberty. The Second Amendment to the United States Constitution was adopted in 1791 with the intention of giving every American the right to legally own firearms. Despite the endless attempts by politicians to destroy this right, most States (and I emphasize most) in our great Union still respect the right of the individual to legally own and carry concealed firearms.
Our Founding Fathers were strong advocates in States' rights and so far the Federal Government has yet to destroy the intentions of our Founders and legislatively intrude on our 2nd Amendment rights (like they've done in every other aspect of our lives). To date, 48 States have passed individual laws allowing, in some respect, citizens to carry concealed firearms in public. Each State has its own policies and regulations that are enforceable by huge fines and, in some cases, even jail time. The fact that an individual can end up in jail simply by traveling through a non-reciprocating state is frightening, but that is the unfortunate reality. It is vital to your freedom and safety that you know everything there is to know about carrying concealed, and CCW By State is your #1 resource to do just that.
CCW By State is your #1 Concealed Carry Resource for all information pertaining to the carrying of concealed firearms, CCW Reciprocity by state, and the understanding of your rights under the 2nd Amendment. Please navigate around CCWByState.com and let us know what you think on the forums!

Bill Belichick on "putting the tape on"
But, youre right, Moore is just as good if not better. After all, it was the saints defense Smith did that too. During the regular season they won with defense, special teams, and that rushing attack.
Over Schaub right now? Interesting. I think by the end of next year I would agree as both play in playaction heavy west coast offenses (Sherman was Schaub's OC for a year or 2)
Speaking of your boy Rivers WV, how bout a drinking game tonight? One shot for every boneheaded throw he and whoever starts for KC tonight make?
Now that we have come back to this post you can definitely update wilson is a baller 2. Rivers is still better than tannehill 3. Rg3 won rookie of the year 4. Flacco won the superbowl mvp. Honestly, at this point tannehill is finally beginning to be top half of league qbs. The only qbs better than him at this point are as follows: both mannings, tom Brady, brees, rodgers, vick (because of system), rg3, luck, Wilson, kaepernick, roethlisberger, romo, ryan, flacco(only because of recent sb). That definitely puts him at around 15.. I didnt say matt shaub because he just doesnt have what it takes to lead a team. Look at all the weapons he was given over the years but has fielded a whopping 1 wildcard win. Enough said
Everyone has a plan until they get punched in the mouth
reading back thru this thread was awesome
hoops scoops 2012 season ..."in 2014 ryan tannehill etches his name in stone amongst the games elite qbs"..."ryan tannehill and andrew luck will carry the afc for the next decade plus the way peyton manning and tom brady have this last decade plus"
for the love of god get a real freaking mike already!!!
As the poster before you states, I would make a couple of adjustments as I stated in the thread I posted a link to this one in.......
Putting my boy Rivers back up where he belongs and after Flacco's post season performance I must move him back up above Tannehill for now.
But, I still have Tannehill as the 11th best QB in the league on my current board.
Also, notice I said all along before that draft that RG3 would be a bust. Notice in this thread that started even after RG3 started putting up some stats and wins and everyone was on his bandwagon, I stuck with my PREDICTION that he will be a bust. I could be wrong, but I might be right. Most of the time Im right as we all know. Nevertheless, I dont change predictions after results start coming in. If Im wrong Im wrong....so be it. That will happen, just not very often with me. With other folks however, not only are they almost always way off, they like to change their predictions. Even while changing predictions it takes them several tries to be right.
^ I see what you did there
I'm not buying back in on Rivers yet. No way. The guy is like ball security kryptonite. He is the human embodiment of a turnover. No thank you.
Man just looking back at the first page in the thread... Everyone knew Griffin would get ruined by injuries, Wilson struggling badly at the start of the year, and Christian Ponder actually fooling me to think that he might not be total garbage...

Fat, drunk and stupid is no way to go through life
Great one MO, love this guy, just subscribed to him and shared on Facebook.
Makes too much sense, we fight each other instead of the enemy, i'm no partisan, I think you know this, but the attempt by some on the anti gun side to somehow connect legal gun owners with this tragedy is one of the most disgusting things i have witnessed.
This guy used the term camper. Yeah taking down a shooter in real life when bullets are flying is a little dffererent than call o duty buddy. Your accuracy diminishes signifigantly and there is a little someting called friendly fire. Just ask the 9 people hit by stray bullets by NYPD (highly trained officers) . I bet they are far more qualified to talk on this subject than a gamer.
Today in (fill in your hometown here) a family of three were shot and killed during a home invasion. According to police, the home was attacked by 4 men, wearing black, that bound and gagged the family, and after ransacking the home, murdered them all. The dead homeowner, (your name here) formerly owned 2 rifles, but they were confiscated after the 2013 assault weapons ban. He showed signs of struggle, but ultimately he was unable to fend off the murderers.
Yeah, it aint hard if ya try to see YOUR wishful reality.
Have you seen this guys YouTube channel? He looks pretty at home on the range shooting. Hardly a "gamer" with a rifle.
Scenario for you. I dont know if your one of the bring guns everyone and everyone will be more safe types but this goes out to those folks. Maybe you heard the story of the two nypd cops recently involved in a shooting with a single gunmen. Where 9....count them 9 innocent bystandard were shot and wounded by highly trained police. These arent regular citizens, but officers that were highly trainind and over the course of their careers sent thousands of rounds downrange to quilify for their positions. Now imagine a fight breaks out at a downtwon new years celebration or a 70k capacity football stadium and everyone is allow to carry. Now imagine a shot is fired after an arguement. Then immediatly 10-20 people in a nearby vicinity draw weapons. Which is what I would do in that scenario. What is the officer to do when 10-20 people have weapons drawn and are firing? A law enforcemnt officers job is tough enough as it is without having to make such rash split time decisions.Talk about chaos. Friendly fire anybody? The casuality rate in such a scenario could make Sandy Hook or Aurora look like a joke. Who are you going to shoot? Who is the bad guy?

I don't remember this thread so I'll pretend it's new lol.
I'm not very knowledgeable on this subject so someone correct me if I'm mistaken about anything, but this sounds like the same straw man we hear every time the gun debate comes up. Taking away guns is not the position of most gun control advocates.
And doesn't everyone already have the ability to arm themselves and get a concealed weapons permit? If so, I don't understand his point when he says, "give people the means to stop mass shootings."
I get the argument against gun free zones, but I think FinaticPatch has a point about how that could make things worse in some situations. I'm not saying I agree or disagree on that point, just that it's not exactly an easy fix imo.
I do agree with the sentiment of the video, I just think his criticism should be aimed at people who haven't gone out (for whatever reason) and gotten the training and permits required to perhaps be in a position to stop a mass shooting. Myself included, although I do plan on it one day.

Purchased new about a year ago, had trouble right out of the box. I do wrought iron work and use a generator for power. Had been using my DVI 2 for years with a 7000w gen for years with no problem, just got tired of dragging it around. Decided to buy a 180 autoset and put it on a two wheeler for ease of moving around. Problem is my 7000w genny wont run it, kills the gen. Had to switch to a 10000w genny just to weld at 25 percent. Contacted miller about this issue to which they were no help at all, put the issue off as new technology.
My other issue with this machine is that on line voltage (230-240) it is so inconsistent. Will weld fine for a short time and then suddenly act like someone cranked up the wire speed and start banging the weld with wire or, just the opposite and burning the wire up to the tip. Again no help from Miller or my LWS. I am absolutely tired of jacking with this. I have been a dedicated Miller user for more than thirty years but now am seriously considering going red.
Ideas .anyone?

Have you measured your line voltage to make sure you are really getting what you think you have? Also have you measured the ac frequency coming out of the Genny plus the real vac?MillerMatic 251

Although I have encountered some issues with generator power if you are getting poor results on wall power then something is wrong. I would start by looking at any possible wire feeding issues, you would also want to check the work clamp (make sure it is in good shape and the cable connection is in good condition and tight). From there you may want to try a differnt gun if you haven't already tried that.
What size and type of wire are you using?Kevin Schuh

Sorry it was a long night, it's kinda sounds like an intermittent connection problem either in the ground clamp or at machine or gun/connection
Take it to the LWS and see if you can duplicate the problem n front of them.Ed Conley

I will tell you this. People bash my Hobart welders but the welders are great and customer service is out of this world. They will stay with you until your problem is solved. The Tech i have dealt with was Bill and he was great.
Contact Miller and tell them your issues and let them lead you to the solution. If they don't i agree switch brands because their are to many top brands out their to be held up on a simple issue. I hate to hear about issues that the manufacturer won't help resolve. Shame on the dealers too.......Just saying......HH 210MVP

Shouldn't it still be under warranty? And just to throw my other $.02 in. I agree with really checking your ground and your liner. Something could be causing it to hang. Also not trying to be a smart a$$ because you have been welding for yeas, could polarity be set wrong?

I've got a miller 252. I was having some of the exact same problems. It was constantly blowing back into the tip over and over. Some days it ran just fine though. In longer passes the lead would start shaking real bad and the wire would just seem to spit out and/or eventually fizzle out and quit feeding. I kicked that thing so many times I'm surprised it's not broken. Every test our weld supplier ran on it was negative for any defaults. Then our company moved to a new building and we haven't had any issues with it. We came to the conclusion that it was most likely the power supply to the building.

Streamlined development, increased English literacy and closing the achievement gap are just three of the ways Montgomery County Executive Isiah Leggett plans to move the county forward.
Leggett spoke Wednesday to a packed house at the Silver Spring Civic Building that included Lt. Gov. Anthony G. Brown (D) of Mitchellville and state Comptroller Peter V.R. Franchot (D) of Takoma Park.
The two-term executive proposed three new initiatives aimed at expanding entrepreneurship and increasing education.
Declaring the county "open for business," not just open to business, the executive announced an initiative to shorten the time it takes development projects to come to fruition.
He asked county and outside agencies to put their heads together and identify areas where Montgomery can substantially change the way it does business.
Noting that for every dollar Montgomery invests in adult English literacy, the county realizes $3 in higher productivity, Leggett announced his English Language on Demand initiative, which is aimed at providing English language training to those who seek it. Leggett said while the diversity of languages spoken in Montgomery is an asset, English is often the ticket to opportunity and success.
The 2010 U.S. Census found that for the first time, Montgomery is a majority-minority county with more than 30 percent of its residents foreign born.
"I recommend as a goal that every adult in this county who wants to learn English – no matter where they come from – has the opportunity to do so," Leggett said.
But as it works to educate its adult population in the English language, Montgomery must also continue to expand educational opportunities for students, he said.
Calling his third initiative a Partnership for Educational Achievement, the executive said the effort will target under-performing students to help close the county's achievement gap.
Under Leggett's leadership, the county has funded Montgomery County Public Schools at about $2 billion a year. It has also continued to rehabilitate old schools and build new schools, and spends about an additional $240 million annually on education beyond the MCPS budget.
But there remains an achievement gap between the students who have the resources to make the most of their educational opportunities and those who do not, Leggett said.
"County government and community service organizations must work more closely together to help tear down the remaining barriers to learning and close achievement gaps – once and for all," he said.
Leggett reminded the audience that during the past six years, the county has wrestled with deficits and downturns.
Comparing Montgomery County to an ocean liner, Leggett said that above board, the ship appeared to be steady and strong, but below the water line was leaking and risked running short of fuel on a defective engine.
Weathering the economic storm in that weakened vessel proved a struggle.
But the county has begun to emerge, ever stronger, he said.
"We are Montgomery County. and, thanks to our collective efforts, our ship is heading straight into the future – ever stronger for the challenges we faced," he said.
By closing $2.6 billion in budget gaps with taxpayers paying more and receiving a little less in services, and by eliminating 10 percent of the county's workforce, subjecting those still employed to pay freezes, furloughs and a higher costs of health insurance and retirement, the county weathered the storm, he said.
"All these choices pained me greatly, but they were the right decisions for Montgomery County," he said. "Together we have repaired the ship and fully retooled the engine, and placed our ship on course in the right direction."
And while Montgomery might be moving forward, it will be gridlocked if the federal government does not resolve its budgetary woes and the state does not provide localities with the means of improving their transportation systems to meet needs now and into the future, Leggett said.
Montgomery is doing its part to bring to completion projects like the 16-mile Purple Line, a light rail line that would connect Bethesda to New Carrollton; the 15-mile Corridor Cities Transitway, a bus rapid transit line that would connect Clarksburg to Shady Grove; and a network of BRT weaving mass transit across the county.
But it cannot and should not shoulder the entire financial burden alone, he said.
"Several years ago, I virtually stood alone in advocating for an increase in the state's gasoline tax. It wasn't popular then, and it isn't popular now," Leggett said. "But we needed it then, and we still need it now."
As Maryland's economic engine, he said investing in transportation here pays off "big time" for all Marylanders.
The executive noted the ambition he has for the future, and assured the county that it can be done.
"I know the agenda that I have outlined here is ambitious," he said. "But, I also believe it is achievable -- and necessary if we want to continue to move this county forward."

A Thursday night fire originating in a heating and air-conditioning unit at Spring Ridge Middle School damaged the eighth-grade section containing nine classrooms, St. Mary's schools officials reported Friday amid a cleanup at the site.
Classes will resume next Monday, April 29, under their normal schedule at the school located off Route 235 south of Lexington Park, according to the St. Mary's public schools superintendent's office, as four of the nine classrooms have been restored for use. A play scheduled to be performed today, Friday, and this Saturday, April 27, will be rescheduled to a later date. All weekend activities at the school have been canceled.
Bay District volunteer firefighters were dispatched shortly after 10 p.m. Thursday on an initial call that a bush was on fire in front of the school, and Ridge, 2nd District and Hollywood volunteer firefighters joined the response to douse the blaze that had spread into a front classroom, according to an online report by Hollywood Deputy Fire Chief Bryan Riley. Smoke was fully ventilated from the entire building within 45 minutes after the blaze was brought under control. Seventh District volunteer firefighters also were dispatched to supply water at the scene.
School officials reported Friday that the HVAC unit was located within an exterior wall.

Experienced an almost perfect wine pairing for Cantonese Seafood at Maple Yip.
After taking a couple of out-of-town relatives to try out O Mei's Giant Lobster 4 ways two nights ago. This evening, it was Maple Yip's turn to show off their Steamed whole fish skill and wow my guests!
In addition to ordering their house special " Steamed whole Floridian Strawberry Grouper, Cantonese style" and their " Baked fried rice in lotus leaf wrapper topped with whole Dungeness Crab". We also had a few interesting and tasty dishes including a seldom found " Stirred fry pig's stomach tip with preserved Chinese Mustard Green and Bitter Melon" and "Braised giant goose web/feet with equally giant Chinese Shitaki mushrooms".
As expected, the fish was perfectly cooked to the nano second! The fried rice was one of the best tasting fried rice dish I've eaten in the GTA. Can easily rub shoulder with Hong Kong's Michelin 1* Cantonese specialist, Yung Kee at its prime!. The stirred fry pigs stomach had lots of smokey wok-hay with the various ingredients providing all sort of textural crunchy and chewy sensation as well as a combination of interesting sweet, sour, savory and bitter taste profile. The Goose web was unbelievably off-the-bone tender and saturated with the mushroom/oyster sauce taste and aroma.
However, it was the pairing of the seafood dish with the bottle of "1998 Weinbach Schlossberg Grand Cru Riesling - Ste Catherine" that made the whole dining experience unforgettable. Intense and complex, this Alsatian Riesling, with all the nuance of a fine German late harvest Riesling, but less sweet, was a perfect match for the delicate sweet meat of both the fish and crab and their accompanying sweetish premium soya sauce. Guess I'll bring along a bottle of nice Riesling each time I order whole steamed fish!
Ooohh, been looking for a place with steamed grouper! Everywhere else is steamed bass or (gasp!) tilapia. We must try Maple Yip soon :)
Hey Charles. Is Maple Yip the best place for steamed whole fish in GTA? What was the price per lb for the grouper?
I don't know if it makes a huge difference, but the only times I've had steamed whole fish, it's been butterflied, which may help the aromatics flavour the fish more...does that make sense?
re: grandgourmand
Maple Yips chef is known as the ' Guru' of steamed fish in the GTA. Immaculate timing irrespective of size of fish! The fish we had was specially ordered for us in advance. About 2.5 pounds. Cost around $50, inclusive of preparation cost.
If you like steamed whole fish, O Mei also offers ''LIVE French Turbot' at around $24-27 per pound. Again preparation price included.
Emperor has ' LIVE Black Bass' for around $33 per pound. But the fish can be huge! 4+ pounds. Usually prepared 2-3 ways. Soup, braised belly and stirred fry fillet.
re: Charles Yu
So, Charles, if we want a grouper, we need to preorder?
re: Charles Yu
Thanks for the tip, Charles!
The steamed Grouper we had the other night was so memorable, my relatives requested a re-visit tonight.
Whilst we had the more common varietal " Red Grouper' a day ago, tonight, Chef Ho managed to acquire a much rarer ' Red Hind Grouper' from his supplier for us. 'Wild Line Caught' and only available about 20 per week, this fish tasted spectacular and sooo fresh!!
For those of you fellow chowhounder who wanted to try, do give owner Maple or Chef Ho at least two or three days advance notice to secure the fish for your party! Worth every cent!
re: Charles Yu
Looks fantastic! I'm planning to take my family there next weekend. How much did this cost (how many lbs) and was it noticeably better than the Red? Can you give an English pronunciation of what this would be called in Cantonese? You did a great job for the Strawberry Grouper in another thread!
re: jl_1978
Depend on the 'price of the day'. Usually around $50 for a 2-3 pounder.
re: Charles Yu
Hi Charles, we have tried the strawberry Grouper 3 times after reading from your thread. We have tried the whole fish steamed twice and other time have it 2 ways. I have to agree that the chef is the guru of steamed fish. But I found that the taste of the fish was not that impressed, it lack of that taste of freshness.
re: jojobobo
@ jojobobo: May be you are used to eating steamed 'LIVE'' fish from the Orient?! Even though the fish acquired by Maple Yip was freshly chilled and airfreight from Florida, comparing to 'live' ones, there bound to be a difference in taste. Just as eating sushi in Japan vs elsewhere!
@ jl_1978. Red Grouper is pronounced ' Hung Barn ' in Cantonese.
Red Hind Grouper is pronounced ' Dong Sing Barn '.
re: Charles Yu
Thanks Charles! I went to pre-order the grouper, chicken with glutinous rice, and crab with rice in lotus leaf. They said they won't know which of the red hind or strawberry grouper they'll have until a few days before. I forgot you wrote "Barn", so I said "Bahn" to the woman and she had no clue what I wanted (A "red board"? lol). My Cantonese was good enough to tell her it's a fish though.
re: jl_1978
You are most welcome!! Hope you have a nice dinner! Good Luck!!
re: Charles Yu
Thanks again for the tips! Had the red hind grouper, crab with rice in lotus leaf, chicken stuffed with glutinous rice, beef tenderloin, seafood bird's nest, and some veggies. Everything was prepared perfectly and the favourite ended up being the chicken! I was surprised when they brought a whole chicken out and ended up cutting it at the table, realizing that it was deboned. Nice crispy skin, moist meat and very tasty rice!
The grouper was also really good, but at $57 (I think it was about 2.5lbs), I don't know if I'd get it again over a cheaper variety that I'm sure would be cooked just as perfectly. I'm glad I tried it though.
re: jojobobo
I was going to make the same comment. I tried their strawberry grouper twice and, though the steaming skills were fine, the fish texture and flavor was off. Just didn't taste fresh as compared to the fish in Hong Kong.
re: Charles Yu
That fish looked obscenely delicious! ;-)
re: klyeoh
"OBSCENELY delicious"!! Guess that's why people start using the word ' food porn'!! Ha!!

We got Berry, who do you like next?
We got Berry, who do you like next?
I also said we would not take him. A bit of a surprise. But like I said, I like the pick the dude is a player. Welcome to the "Fifth Dimension"
I heard Mortensen talking tonight on ESPN radio that Kansas City might be thinking of trading up to have a shot at Claussen since he is on the books still. While I wouldn't mind seeing the local Southern California boy in Chiefs red, I just don't see the need in QB that everyone else seems to think we have.
Are you man enough? Eric Berry? Apparently Not!

Drafting Eric Berry will have Aussie shootin blanks for days. Haha j/k, but seriously, welcome aboard Berry.
I was at the Draft Day Party tonight held inside the training facility at Arrowhead. I was jumping up & down yelling with joy, as were many others...when our pick was announced as Eric Berry. I thought of Aussie too...knowing how happy he'd be as well.
I was pretty sure Pioli would indeed take Berry. Berry is a win win pick for Pioli, makes intelligent business sense from every aspect of a GM's point of view:
1) Berry is a playmaker
2) Berry fulfills a critical need
3) Berry was a popular choice among a majority of fans...a good GM consider's the fans voice, especially when fans are unhappy with their team.
4) Berry will help boost ticket sales...assuming he lives up to expectations.

oh, I made some flowers like this for Mishi's fairy birthday earlier this year. They are so fun to do, and it's easy to go a bit over the top with making more and more. (I used tissue, and also magazines and wrapping paper and other papers like that. Tulle would be super lovely).

Thanks for the great tutorial, amazing idea to add the tulle. Excuse me while I go check out my sewing stash and try to make some of these.
- December 16, 2010 at 6:20 PM
Thanks for the tulle idea. My sister and I used to make these many (and I mean MANY) years ago when we were kids, but we used tissues when you used to be able to get them in a myriad of colors. The multi-ply ones could be separated and they would be beautifully full. They were so much fun to make! Of course, we never had heard of tulle. Ah, my next crafty project is at hand!

Would this work with just fabric? I'd like to make a hairbow and I think the tissue paper would hold up over time.

Hi Kate
What a wonderful flower - I've made tissue paper ones before but didn't think to add the tulle - these are stunners and I'm going to give them a try. I happened to come across you from another person on Pinterest - keep meaning to join that myself - gosh would I ever get any crafting done with all the wonderful creations....
Anyway take care and I will be back soon.
- November 8, 2011 at 5:49 AM
I love your spunk and wit. I also love the tutorial, but your comments make it especially entertaining. Have a wonderful day!

Can you also make these with just tulle or have you tried that? I believe someone previously asked but I couldn't find your response. I'm making a Downton Abbey tree for Christmas and these in the pink and cream will be perfect additions.

Hi Joanwing, you can make them just with tulle. Your tree sounds amazing. Love Kate.
