Thirteen Denver police officers who received the Citizens Appreciate Police Award were honored at a ceremony on Wednesday, February 9, 2011 in the Rotunda of the City and County Building. For a complete list of all Citizens Appreciate Police Award recipients, view the award recipient roster.
Officer Tony Bruce (98020) who took it upon himself to assist a family who was on a fixed income. Officer Bruce noticed that one of the children had been sleeping on a soiled mattress in his room. Officer Bruce with his personal funds purchased a brand new mattress, bed set, and sheets and delivered the items to the family. The family was extremely happy and grateful for the gifts from Officer Bruce.
Officer Jan Elliott (94033) and Officer John Ashcraft (06109) who assisted a female who just arrived from New Mexico with her boyfriend. The female's boyfriend would not allow her to have any money, credit cards, or cell phone. The female was frightened of her boyfriend and wanted to leave him and go home, but did not have any means of getting there and was stranded. The Officers took the female to the Greyhound Bus Station, used their own money to purchase her a bus ticket home, as well as money to buy food on the trip. The concern and compassion displayed by these officers was exemplary, and their actions in helping this young woman at their own personal expense was a magnanimous gesture of gratitude.
Sergeant Troy Ortega (95040), Corporal Mark Miller (87031), Officer Anthony Tak (00018), and Officer Joel Charette (05141) for their assistance with a distraught family of six children, a disabled father, and the sudden, tragic loss of their mother who passed away from internal hemorrhaging in her sleep. This occurred during the Christmas holiday season. The father of the children confided to the Officers he had no resources to purchase Christmas gifts for his children or replace the mattress his wife was sleeping on during her untimely death. The Officers pooled together their funds and asked for donations from fellow Officers. With the money collected, they were able to purchase a new mattress, toys, clothing, a Christmas tree, decorations, and a Christmas dinner for the family. The Officers along with Fox 31 news delivered the gifts to the family. The family was extremely happy and grateful for the generosity exhibited by these Officers.
Officers Alexander St. Peter (05067) and Richard Harvey (06069) for their assistance with a Grandmother visiting from out of state who agreed to take temporary custody of her infant grandson. The infant's mother was involved in a domestic violence situation and was unable to take care of him. Officers St. Peter and Harvey, both fathers of young children themselves, realized that the Grandmother had none of the essential items necessary for the care of an infant so they helped the Grandmother obtain formula, bottles, diapers, and various other sundries. The officers transported the Grandmother and infant to their hotel and showed her how to measure and mix formula, feed and change her grandson's diaper. The Grandmother overwhelmed by the officers' display of compassion, praised them for their extraordinary kindness and willingness to take the additional time to help her and her grandson during this most difficult time.
Officer Daniel Lucero (75021) For his assistance with a stranded female, who had a flat tire on the way to the airport and was running late to catch her flight. Officer Lucero kindly arranged for the stranded female's tire to be changed and her vehicle parked. He also helped her obtain her boarding pass and escorted her to the gate where she boarded her plane with a minute to spare. She was very impressed with Officer Lucero's willingness to help and said he is a true credit to the Denver Police Department's Force.
Officers Christopher Bales (06130), Steven Rieck (06132), and Gordon Seib (05018) for their assistance with a family (two adults an infant in a stroller) who were found standing on the side of I-70 and Federal Boulevard. The family relayed to the officers they had lost their housing, jobs, and "were just down on their luck." They were attempting to stay at the Motel 6, which was $39.00 a night, but unfortunately, they only had $30.00. The officers checked with several shelters but found none that could accommodate a family at short notice. The officers contacted the Motel 6, arranged with the manager to reduce the room price for the family, and pooled together their own money so the family could stay for the weekend. They also transported the family to the Grocery store so they could purchase baby food, milk and other sundries. Another call was placed to a local restaurant and the owners donated enough food to feed a family of eight without hesitation. The family was very gracious for the generosity displayed by the officers and overwhelmed by their display of compassion.
Officer Paul Selander

Indianapolis—A proposal that would have injected $25 million into local roads coffers was shut down along party lines Tuesday afternoon. The amendment, authored by State Senator Tim Skinner (D-Terre Haute) and supported by State Senator Richard Young (D-Milltown), would have made a local infrastructure grant fund available to local governments using balances from the Major Moves trust fund.
"The quality and maintenance of Indiana roads, bridges and other infrastructure is an essential component of economic development and quality of life," said Sen.Young. "We need to do all we can to give local leaders more options for funding those kinds of improvements."
Proposed as an amendment to House Bill (HB) 1002 which authorizes the State Budget Agency to transfer funds from the state's General Fund to the Major Moves 2020 Trust Fund, the measure would have reverted the language back to the original version passed overwhelmingly by both parties in the House of Representatives.
According to the American Society of Civil Engineers, poor road conditions cost Hoosier Motorists $1.24 billion per year in extra vehicle repairs and operating costs, and Indiana received a D+ in the report grading the state's infrastructure as a whole.
"In the remaining weeks of this legislative session, it is my hope we can bring everyone on board with this idea," said Sen. Young. "Our local communities are depending on us."
Sen. Young represents Senate District 47 which encompasses portions of Crawford, Dubois, Harrison, Orange, Perry and Washington counties. For more information on Sen. Young, his legislative agenda or other State Senate business, call 1-800-382-9467 or visit www.IN.gov/s47.

i still use catch phrases from 16 candles today and most of them were scenes with the donger. i actually used the grandpa scene with him towards the end today...dong {clap,clap}doonng{clap,clap} when my friend gets that lost look on her face.
great thread lol
Thank you for bringing back The Depths
No more yanky my wanky, the Donger need food!
Lake.....Big Lake
best. thread. ever.
if we are antagonizing Asian people, i am all about that.
in addition to the Donger's greatest hits mentioned previously, if you really want to piss off your Asian friends, make sure to play 80's tune "Turning Japanese" by The Vapors in their presence every chance you get.
i had that set as my ringtone for my old roomie and best bud Eddie, who was half Japanese.
and when speaking to them, be sure to pronounce all your "R's" as "L's'' and vice versa... they love that.
kinda like in the closing scene of "A Christmas Story," when Ralphie's family is at the Chinese restaurant, and the whole staff is singing to them;
"Deck the harrs with bows of Horry, Fa Ra Ra Ra Ra, Ra Ra Ra Ra!"
(William H. Bonney, aka Billy the Kid): If a man has 3 or 4 pals, well, then he's got himself a tribe. And there ain't nothing stronger than that.

DURHAM, N.C. – Four Duke student-athletes were chosen by the Duke Sports Performance staff as the recipients of the Olympic Sports Performance Student-Athletes of the Year, and four others received Duke's Live Strong Award for overcoming adversity in their pursuit to return to their sports.
Receiving the Olympic Sports Performance Student-Athletes of the Year awards were Sebastien Ibeagha of the men's soccer team, Baily Murphy of the women's track and field team, Dominick Robinson of the men's cross country team and Emily Theys of the rowing team.
"Each year, the Sports Performance Department recognizes select male and female student-athletes who best represent the standard of excellence in training and competition that we strive to achieve on a daily basis," said Dan Perlmutter, the head Olympic sports performance coach at Duke. "For their commitment to excellence, dedication to hard work, and consistent desire to improve themselves and their teams, these individuals have been selected as the Duke Olympic Sports Performance Student-Athletes of the Year."
Receiving the Live Strong Awards were Sean Cadley of the women's fencing team, Aaron Cohn of the baseball team, Callie Francis of the women's lacrosse team and Karli Johonnot of the women's track and field team.
"The Live Strong Award winners represent the 'never give up, never say die' mentality we hope to nurture in all of our student-athletes," Perlmutter said. "For their tireless efforts in overcoming adversity, their unwavering optimism and enthusiasm for training, and their dedication for returning to athletic excellence on gameday, these student-athletes are worthy of recognition."
The Duke Olympic Sports Performance Awards are voted on by members of Duke's Olympic Sports Performance staff.

John MacKinnon has been playing the keyboard for fun and profit since 1981, and since January 1999 at the Journal.
He is a 1985 graduate of Concordia University in Montreal, which, if you do the math, means he officially graduated five years after he left the full-time university life behind to perch in press boxes around the sporting world.
MacKinnon also holds a Masters degree in media administration, which he obtained from Syracuse University in 1986 during a 12-month sabbatical from the Canadian Press in Montreal, where he worked, off and on, for nine years.
In sum, having devoted the decade of the 1970s to a seemingly casual perusal of a wide variety of academic study we'll charitably collect under the label of the Liberal Arts, he hung up not one, but two diplomas in rapid succession. He might have completed college in regulation time but he got side-tracked by working obsessively for three years at the student newspaper and doing some part-time work at CP on the side.
The wire-service regimen -- batting out football and hockey summaries as well as baseball box scores, and filing stories for morning and afternoon editions -- helped prepare him for the modern internet reality at the Journal. If possible, always be typing something -- a blog item; a web hit; a revised version of an already-filed story. Something. Which is far less onerous and way more fun than it might sound.
Throughout his career, and especially at the Journal, MacKinnon has tried to live up to the old school newspaper motto: Join the Georgian and see the world!.
Which is far less onerous and way more fun than it might sound.
Throughout his career, and especially at the Journal, MacKinnon has tried to live up to the old school newspaper motto: Join the Georgian and see the world!
That approach has taken MacKinnon from Montreal to Ottawa, where he worked for the Citizen from 1988-94, and on to Edmonton. Oh, on the way to Alberta's capital, he stopped off in Calgary for a two-year hitch at Hockey Canada.
Assignments have included five Olympics -- Sarajevo, Nagano, Sydney, Salt Lake City and Beijing; the 2006 Commonwealth Games in Melbourne, Australia; the 2007 Pan American Games in Rio de Janeiro; a cluster of Grey Cups, beginning in 1981; frequent Stanley Cup coverage, the first stint in 1983; the U.S. Open golf championship; men's and women's tennis; World Cup skiing and ski jumping; various men's, women's and junior men's world hockey championships; and much else.
Hired by the Journal as sports editor in January '99, MacKinnon has written a sports column for the paper since October 2003.
It's a wide-ranging column that, were it a boarding house, would welcome many and varied guests from around the world of sports.
That's the idea, at any rate. Check it out and judge for yourself.

As the civil unrest in Ukraine comes to a head, protestors claim to have taken President Viktor Yanukovych's private estate, and with it, his personal car collection. Using state funds to maintain a fleet of old Soviet runabouts? Along with everything else the protestors have endured, that's not going to go over well.
It's a little unclear who controls Ukraine at the moment, with the opposition controlling the capital, Kiev, and Yanukovych alternately claiming that there was a coup, but that he was also not resigning. Usually one precludes the other, though the situation on the ground is currently fluid, to say the least.
Unlike the Shah of Iran's private stash, Yanukovych's collection looks to be a motley assortment of communist relics, but that doesn't say anything about its provenance. It's not easy to make out everything from the pictures emerging, but right now the information and images are pouring out of the Yanukovych compound, and already we've spotted everything from Chaikas to Trabants.

Lotus deputy team principal Federico Gastaldi insists the team are determined to hang onto Romain Grosjean for 2015, but admits they are unable to make an announcement just yet.
The Enstone squad confirmed over the weekend that Pastor Maldonado would stay with the team next year, but Grosjean's future remains unclear as the Frenchman has previously admitted he wouldn't hesitate to leave in pursuit of glory.
Gastaldi, though, says Grosjean remains part of their plans.
"Romain has been part of the Lotus F1 Team family for many years, even since his GP2 days," Gastaldi said. "Let's be honest, Romain as a top, top driver is not happy with the 2014 season and this is mirrored by everyone at the team of course.
"We cannot confirm anything just yet as the timing will be right when we are both comfortable to announce something. All I can say is that it's certainly the intention for Romain to stay at Enstone and continue what has been a great partnership and working relationship."
It's been a difficult season for both Grosjean and Maldonado as the team have struggled. Maldonado is yet to score any points, but Gastaldi says they are delighted to have tied up the Venezuelan's future.
"It's a renewal of vows after a tough honeymoon if you like. Myself and [team principal] Gerard Lopez spent a lot of time with Pastor in Hockenheim, where we sat down and discussed the future which was all very positive," he said.
"Pastor is very much part of the future at Enstone and it was a matter of routine for both parties to confirm that he has a multi-year deal and will be in one of our cockpits next season."

"Suzuka should be one of the top three racetracks in anyone's book." So wrote former Grand Prix driver turned expert commentator Martin Brundle in his fine book Working the Wheel, published in 2004.
For Mark Webber Suzuka certainly is – or at least one-third of it, which kind of matches Brundle's analysis! Giving fans an insight into his F1 preferences, Webber recently described the composite track which would be his favourite, and the first of his three sectors comes from the famous Japanese circuit.
"What a lot of people don't appreciate," says Mark, "is the very steep downhill entrance to Turn 1 which makes the first right-hander very fast. Then you start to climb into Turn 2 and you are generally climbing all the way up to Turn 7, the long left-hander. I have to choose it because of the accuracy required, the sensational undulations and its very technical nature."
Accuracy was certainly required by Ayrton Senna at the start of the 1990 Japanese Grand Prix, not to get his McLaren Honda round the Ferrari of arch-rival Alain Prost but to drive it deliberately into the side of the Italian car, thus eliminating both men on the spot. The image of the two drivers silently climbing the Armco barriers remains one of the most famous in recent F1 history.
It's a sad fact that Suzuka, one of the ultimate drivers' circuits, should burn brightly in people's memories as the scene of not one but two infamous incidents in which Prost and Senna brought the sport into disrepute.
The first had come in 1989. Both men were driving for McLaren; the 'Dream Team' had unravelled as both pursued the title; it fell apart completely when they collided at the Suzuka chicane. Senna restarted and went on to 'win', only to be disqualified – handing the World Championship to Prost.
The Frenchman's outstretched hand was brusquely waved away as their enmity reached new depths of bitterness. "His problem," said Prost, "is that he can neither accept the possibility of not winning, nor that somebody will resist one of his overtaking manoeuvres. But before the race here, I said that I was not going to leave the door open any longer." A year later, on October 21, 1990, two men who would accumulate seven titles between them were unable to do anything other than drive each other off the Suzuka Circuit. How sad, then, to see Prost as one of the pall-bearers at Senna's funeral less than five years later…
But Suzuka deserves a place in our memories for more than those unhappy reasons. Designed by Dutchman John Hugenholtz – the man behind Zandvoort, among other places – it dates back as far as 1962 but first came on to the World Championship calendar only in 1987.
The first winner was a Ferrari in the capable hands of pole-sitter Gerhard Berger, who enjoyed a big following in Japan, at the tail-end of the turbo era in Formula 1. Senna's Lotus Honda was second, with Stefan Johansson third for McLaren while Prost's sister McLaren-TAG Turbo took fastest lap.
The challenge Suzuka posed to drivers was painfully obvious to Nigel Mansell, whose Williams-Honda Turbo crashed heavily on the uphill section in practice and ruled the Englishman out of the race and the World Championship that year.
The Prost-Senna shenanigans left the door open for others, of course, and in 1989 it was Alessandro Nannini who took advantage. The popular Italian stepped in to claim his first and, sadly, his only Grand Prix victory for Benetton before having his right arm severed in a helicopter accident soon after.
A year later Prost-Senna Part Two left the way clear for another Benetton success, this time a 1-2 finish for Nelson Piquet and Roberto Moreno, while Japanese driver Aguri Suzuki had the home fans in ecstasy when he brought his Lola Lamborghini home third.
Not for another 12 years would the home crowd have another home hero to cheer for when Kamui Kobayashi scored the only podium of his own colourful F1 career for Sauber behind Vettel's Red Bull and Massa's Ferrari.
Suzuka, which will stage its 25th World Championship Grand Prix this month, is famous as the only 'figure-of-eight' track, where the homeward section crosses over the outward part. It is equally famous for the challenge of the Turn called 130R, which is in fact a sweeping left-hander, and for the Degner Curves, named after the notorious figure from the motorcycle racing world who first brought East German secrets to Japanese two-wheeled manufacturers Suzuki more than half a century ago.
Mention of two-wheeled racing brings back another unhappy Suzuka memory, for it was here on April 6 2003 that the popular, spectacular motorcycle racer Daijiro Kato suffered the injuries that eventually cost him his life two weeks later. MotoGP has not returned to Suzuka since then.
Until the sudden rush of fly-away races which now overcrowd the late-season calendar, Suzuka was often the last or close to the last race on the F1 calendar. Hence the fact that no fewer than 11 times has it been the place where the World Championship was decided, most recently in 2011 when third place was enough for Sebastian Vettel to retain the crown.
Back in 2003, on an uncharacteristically slipshod day, Michael Schumacher clashed with his brother Ralf's Williams BMW, was hit by Takuma Sato's BAR Honda, went off at the Spoon Curve and more or less stumbled across the line in eighth place to claim his sixth title – the one that finally took him past the peerless Fangio's record of five. No wonder he said "I just cannot think for the moment…"
There was dismay among drivers and fans alike when Suzuka lost its place on the calendar to Fuji (owned by Toyota, while Suzuka is Honda's) for 2007-08, and equal pleasure when the circuit 50 kilometres south of Nagoya returned in 2009.
It may not be the easiest track in the world to get to, but once there the carnival atmosphere provided by the motor sport fun-park Motopia, the atmosphere generated by the passionate Japanese fans and, not least of all, the exhilarating layout make Suzuka one of the best stops on anyone's global Grand Prix journey.

The living room of interior designer Alberto Pinto's Rio de Janeiro apartment, which was renovated by architect Thiago Bernardes of Bernardes + Jacobsen. A Nancy Graves painting hangs above a Pinto-designed sofa, and the dark-wood chairs are by William Haines. The open staircase is framed in polished chrome.
At one end of the living room, beneath a Marc Quinn painting, is a Pinto-designed sofa with cushions made from recycled vintage leopard coats; the chairs are by T. H. Robsjohn-Gibbings, and the candlesticks are by Kenzo Takada for Baccarat.
Overlooking the Cagarras archipelago, a Marcel Coard table hosts an ivory turtle, an Art Deco vase, and sculptural coco de mer seeds.
A Sam Francis painting joins a trio of bronzes by Jacques Darbaud.
Antique fabrics from India cover pillows in the television room; Hubert le Gall designed the Romulus mirror.
A work by Marcos Coelho Benjamin is displayed above the bar; the porcelain figurines are antique.
Made of butterfly wings, the striped panels in the dining room provide visual interest while concealing shelves for china and silver. Atop the woven-rope rug is a Brazilian white-painted wood table and Robsjohn-Gibbings chairs upholstered in cheetah-spot cotton.
Striped in black and white, Pinto's bedroom features a Mimmo Paladino painting and a massive ammonite fossil; the bed linens are by Frette.
Bleached-mahogany cabinets line the designer's dressing room, where a button-tufted Italian chair is covered in faux crocodile.
Hervé Van der Straeten sconces from Ralph Pucci International frame a reflection of a portrait by Marc Quinn in the master bath; the vanity was custom made.
Also in the master bath, a desk is surmounted by an Almir Reis photograph of volleyball on Ipanema Beach; the parchment lamps are 1970s, and the chair is by Philippe Hurel from Profiles.
The bleached-wood walls of a corridor, and a guest room beyond. Flanking the doorway are ebonized bookcases bearing Thai brass-and-tin deer-shaped candleholders.
With walls striéd in a soft blue, this guest room is furnished with a bold headboard, a Baroque red-lacquer secretary, and a suzani coverlet.
A cool blue-and-beige guest room is enlivened by splashes of red, courtesy of quilts from the Savoie region of France; over the '40s desk is a Jean Royère gilt-wood mirror, and the Paul Dupré-Lafon lamps are covered in Hermès leather.
Modeled after the work of Alexander Calder, another guest room's maguey-fiber wall hanging was hand-woven in Central America in the '70s; the Pinto-designed bed is upholstered in a mix of leather and fabric.

Sneaky Pete Cues
The Sneaky Pete or Hustler style cue is the oldest and most traditional design for a two piece cue. The original concept for the Sneaky Pete was to create a cue that would look like a standard bar cue when assembled.
Today, fewer people buy Sneaky Pete cues for the sole purpose of hustling unsuspecting pool players. Because of the traditional style and inherent beauty of the Sneaky Pete, it remains one of the most popular and best selling pool cue design styles on the market today.

Hello everyone, this is an excellent place and great resource. I was wondering if anyone has any experience with meat locker railings, such where to find the railings, anything special needed for the USDA, and any tips or tricks that might be helpful. Thanks Mitch
Also any ideas on a kill cage that will be buffalo proof too.

meat locker railings
I would start out with the USDA for guidelines. I used to work in a sheetmetal shop and we made a lot of stuff for the local packing plant. Everything was made from stainless steel or USDA approved Nylon. Even the grease and paint is regulated. Sorry i can't help more i was never in the plant...Bob

Comments about Wine Bar Wall Unit for Serving and Storage:
I like the overall layout of the item and it's a fair price. However, the quality is very poor. My first one arrived with splinters and chips along the side edge and a large dent in the front. It was extremely visible so I repackaged and requested a new one. The second item arrived with a large chunk missing from the side edge. Because it's 120 lbs and very difficult to repackage, I decided to place in the opposite side of my dining room to hide the missing chunk and accept it. This is not typical Brookstone quality. I would not recommend this product to anyone.

Romain Grosjean claimed the Race of Champions in Bangkok, beating the likes of Sebastian Vettel and Michael Schumacher...
Lotus driver Romain Grosjean claimed the Race of Champions in Bangkok late on Sunday, besting some of the biggest names in motorsport including Sebastian Vettel and Michael Schumacher.
Grosjean beat Le Mans legend Tom Kristensen in the best-of-three final to the competition, which brought together heavyweights from all racing disciplines in the same type of car including IndyCar Series champion Ryan Hunter-Reay and rally driver Sebastien Ogier.
Grosjean, who endured a controversy-marked season in his Formula One Lotus car, ended the year in style with the inspired win at the custom-built tarmac track in Bangkok's 50,000-capacity Rajamangala Stadium.
"That's what I'd call a crazy day," the delighted champion said. "It's been a tough end to the F1 season but I finally got back on the podium yesterday, and now this. It's great to get this win before I head off for a holiday."
Grand Prix legend Schumacher was knocked out by Grosjean in the semi-final of the headline event while three-time Formula One champion Vettel stumbled at the quarters for the second year running.
But it was not all bad news for the German superstar, as he claimed the ROC Nations Cup on Saturday for the sixth time in a row with compatriot Schumacher.
The 25th edition of the event comes as Thailand makes moves to host its first Formula One race in 2014.

Reviews for Pizza Egg Rolls
Sort By :
"Delicious! We loved the fresh combination of flavors in the crispy wrappers."
"extra specal"
"The kids request this for birthday dinners!"
"These egg rolls are the bomb! You can easily swap out ingredients to make to your liking or to use things on hand...so good! Note: I fry mine in an electric fry pan/skillet and just turn them a few times till done. When I did them in the deep fryer, they "leaked" and made the oil nasty...so I find it easier and less waste to do them in the electric skillet. Enjoy!!"
"OMG! These were sooooo good. People were raving about them all night. They could not get enough of them. I doubled the recipe, they were the first appetizer to go. I made the filling in advance. I filled and rolled them about 30 - 45 minutes before I fried them, that was not a good idea. The egg rolls got soggy and started to fall apart in the deep fryer. So future note, don't roll until you are ready to fry. I still included them on my platter, and even the ones with big holes in them disappeared. I would deff make over and over again. The word my Nieces boyfriend used was "genus"!"

Bill Granger's Scrambled Eggs, p. 640
LOVE these. Simple, quick (about a minute), and luxurious. I've been making these since 2002 when they appeared in the NYT (link below). Although they contain 1/2 cup of heavy cream per two eggs, they are amazingly feather-light. I've recommended them on Chowhound and others have made them substituting milk for the cream, and then were disappointed. Make them as is - every time I do for guests, it's a repeat request when they return for a visit. I use a silicon spatula for folding. They don't seem to turn out as well if the recipe is doubled so I make this in single 2-egg batches since it's so quick. I served them this weekend with maple breakfast link sausage and jalapeno-cheddar muffins.
"They've been described as the best scrambled eggs in the world..."
re: Breadcrumbs
Thanks smtucker and breadcrumbs!. They are really delicious.
Re: muffins - I cheated from a local restaurant. They gave us a few to take home after a recent meal. ; )

These are called rusks, but as explained in the book, they are pillows o' bread -- not even close to the Very crisp (hard!) biscotti-like dunkers known to me as rusks.
These are straightforward delicious rolls. A little potato in the dough, 3 rises, they have a perfect soft but substantial texture. Very good flavor -- I wouldn't hesitate to make them for any tray of sliders, ham or chicken salad, breakfast with butter and marmalade. I'm sure there are more modern applications too!
This book has been losing me a little (grumble grumble), but this recipe is a keeper.
re: blue room
blue room, what do you mean the book has been losing you a little? Meaning you're becoming disenchanted with some of the recipes?
re: The Dairy Queen
If (as I think you suspect and I now believe) some of the recipes were included for historical reasons (balance or pop culture significance or whatever) I'm wary now. It seems to me that a higher than usual proportion of so-far-tried recipes have problems.
I'm finding great ones! Will continue! But wish for asterisks by the recipes that are ***included for reasons other than flavor***
Unfair for this book?
re: blue room
Those look like what my mother-in-law used to try to make. Your version is far more appetizing, to say the least. I love potato in breads. Marking this to try. Thanks.
re: smtucker
I am so grateful to find a bread that came out really well, one that uses yeast, and kneading, and rising. Not just the famous no-knead, which I like, but is always too wet.
Boston Brown Bread, Pg. 656
Well, this a bit of a do but in the end quite nice and a delicious accompaniment for the Boston Baked Beans on pg., 274. Several ingredients I hadn't worked with in some time needed to be bought, namely rye flour (Bob's Mill) and whole wheat flour (King Arthur). We already a fresh box of corn meal in the pantry. The flours, baking soda, and salt are combined in a large bowl then a mixture of molasses, raisins and buttermilk are added and all is mixed together. That was the easy part.
An empty can of Italian tomatoes, 28 oz. size, had been saved, washed and was ready for the batter after the inside was buttered. A pudding mould could have been used but I didn't have one, thus the can...which is rather traditional. The can held all except about 1/2 cup of batter. But the trick was to find a pot tall enough and wide enough to accept a trivet on the bottom, the can of batter on the trivet, and a cover since this is a steamed bread. Every pot and pan in the house was tried and found wanting so in the end I used the slow cooker. Two cups of cool water is poured into the insert, the can of batter sits on the bottom of the insert, aluminum foil is stretched across the top and wrapped down the sides, then the slow cooker cover is placed on top of the foil. This steams on high for 4 1/2 hours, then cools on a cooling rack for another hour.
From the look of the uncooked batter I was skeptical. It was a very pale beige color and decidedly unappetizing. However, when the bread was released from the can, it was very dark brown and smelled wonderful. The texture was very slightly grainy but smooth in a way too. We loved it. And truthfully, very easy to make...
re: blue room
Oh yes, really moist, The raisins contribute to that I think. I've had B & M and truthfully, don't like it. This was just sweet enough with the buttermilk tempering that cloying sweetness. Fresh buttermilk (Kate's organic from Maine)... Major Yum.

Curious Collections: Chocolate Pots from Chaco Canyon
by AMNH on
More than 100 years after joining the Museum's archaeological collection, a remarkable set of 11th-century pottery excavated in New Mexico's Chaco Canyon is at the center of a delicious discovery.
Found at Pueblo Bonito, one of the great ceremonial complexes of the Ancestral Pueblo peoples, the rare ceramics were collected for the Museum by George Pepper at the turn of last century. Only recently, however, have researchers looked to the set to search for chemical traces of the vessels' long-lost contents. The results were electrifying: tests revealed the presence of theobromine, the biomarker for cacao, confirming the earliest known use of chocolate north of the Mexican border.
Valuable Lesson About Variables
by AMNH on
In the last few weeks, 13-year-old Aidan — a 2011 Young Naturalist Award winner whose scientific project, described in his essay The Secret of the Fibonacci Sequence in Trees, garnered much attention for examining whether patterns of tree leaf distribution were linked to more efficient sunlight collection—received another important lesson in his young scientific career.
A Vanished Species: Thylacinus cynocephalus
by AMNH on
Thylacinus cynocephalus goes by many common names: Tasmanian wolf, Tasmanian tiger, zebra dog, pouched wolf, and marsupial dog, among others. A quick look at the animal explains the confusion. Shaped like a dog, striped like a tiger or zebra, pouched like an opossum, and reputed to behave like a wolf, it became many different creatures in the popular imagination.
But the thylacine is, or was, a unique species. Now considered extinct, the thylacine was a carnivorous marsupial that lived in Tasmania and fed primarily on kangaroos, wallabies, small mammals, and birds. Nocturnal and shy, it was seldom seen by humans. Nonetheless, beginning in the 19th century, settlers believed the animals threatened their livestock and, spurred on by a bounty offered by the government, hunted them relentlessly. Despite numerous unconfirmed reports of sightings in recent decades, no definitive sightings have occurred since the 1930s.
Titanosaur Nest from The World's Largest Dinosaurs
by AMNH on
They are some of the rarest of rare artifacts: fossil dinosaur eggs with the embryo still inside. And they are prized for what they can tell paleontologists about the adults that laid them.
The exhibition The World's Largest Dinosaurs features a scale model of a nest found at Auca Mahuevo, Argentina, one of the largest known dinosaur nesting sites in the world. While it isn't always possible to figure out which dinosaur laid a particular egg, in this case, an embryo within an egg found at Auca Mahuevo site allowed scientists to identify these eggs as those of titanosaurs, a group of sauropods that included such species as Ampelosaurus and Saltasaurus. Herds of female titanosaurs are thought to have laid the thousands of eggs — 15 to 40 at a time — in shallow nests dug out with their huge feet in dry mud and sand over miles of ground at Auca Mahuevo.

Singapore - Best Cantonese dinner (still!) at Taste Paradise, ION Orchard
Taste Paradise is, IMO, still the best spot for Cantonese fine dining in Singapore. Its closest rival, Imperial Treasure (Great World City outlet) seemed to have changed chefs recently, and the cooking there seemed rather over-salted these days.
Anyhoo, we decided to have dinner yesterday evening which was practically a repeat of the one we had there a year before (http://chowhound.chow.com/topics/852379) - just to see if Taste Paradise had maintained its standards:
- Roasted whole suckling pig: simply the *best* suckling pig I'd ever had in Singapore, ever. The skin was super-crisp and crunchy. Went superbly with the sauce and small steamed bread. The remaining pork-meat (after the skin had been carved off) was stir-fried with chilli and garlic flakes, and was totally delicious as well. Must-not-miss!
- Duo of wasabi and laksa-flavoured prawns: the fresh, the prawns were batter-fried then coated in mayonnaise - one which had been flavoured with wasabi, whilst the other was laksa-flavoured. Both were very tasty - must-not-miss as well!
- Sharksfin soup in chicken consomme: simply the best in Singapore - no two ways about it! The thick, collagenic chicken soup complemented the sharksfin perfectly!
- Braised abalone with mushrooms and broccoli: also the best I'd ever had - the abalone had been cooked till yieldingly soft, and the sauce was perfect.
- Steamed marbled goby, Cantonese-style: very fresh fish. This was the only dish which, although done very well, did not excel significantly compared to versions I'd had in Imperial Treasure or Crystal Jade Palace (Ngee Ann City) - the other two Cantonese restaurants which I regard as Taste Paradise' closest rivals.
- Barbecued pork-ribs with plum sauce: the pork-ribs were cooked till the cartilage bones were soft enough to cut through. The plum sauce was well-balanced.
- Ee-fu noodles: very fragrant, roasted noodles, subsequently braised with straw mushrooms and leeks. Best rendition I'd had in recent memory.
Dessert: Warm hasima (snow frogs' glands) in syrup - pretty standard and not a standout here. Pity - this excellent meal deserved a better dessert to finish off with a bang.
Overall, no doubt in my mind that Taste Paradise's still No. 1 in Singapore when it comes to Cantonese fine dining at the current moment. If I'd thought last year's dinner there was superb - the one last night showed that the restaurant had indeed maintained its consistency throughout.

re: Julian Teoh
Very reasonable - around S$165 per head. Taste Paradise is the *only* top-flight Cantonese restaurant *not* to have increased its prices yet this year - both Crystal Jade and Imperial Treasure Groups' menu prices seemed to have gone up by 10%-20%!
re: Bu Pun Su
I'd only been back to Hua Ting for lunch once this year during the Chinese New Year period, and for dinner last year. Both times, the food was good but not outstanding, and was rather over-priced.
A pity, since Hua Ting's Executive Chef, Chan Kwok, was someone whom I once regarded as the foremost Cantonese chef in Singapore - he was the one who helmed the original Crystal Jade restaurant in Cairnhill Hotel back in 1992, then moved on to run its kitchens at Crystal Jade Palace when it opened in Ngee Ann City. Hong Leong Group's chairman, Kwek Leng Beng, must have liked Chan Kwok so much, that he managed to poach him from the Crystal Jade Group.
But Hua Ting felt boring and pretty unimaginative these days, much like Li Bai (Sheraton), Jiang Nan-chun (Four Seasons) or Wan Hao (JW Marriott) - once destination dining places, but which have fallen off the radar in recent years.
As for Yan Ting at St Regis, I'd not been back there since I had a really "bad" experience there 2 years ago - paid a bomb for very average cuisine and utterly complacent service: even by Singapore's generally amateurish standards. But I'd been hearing similar complaints from my friends ever since then - independent opinions from different sources, which echoed my original sentiments, so that's discouraged me from going back there again anytime soon.
I don't think I have much luck when it comes to St Regis Singapore. When it first opened, I dined at Brasserie Les Saveurs - the mussels were over-cooked and overly-dry. When I brought it up to the French maitre'd, he haughtily quipped, "Oh, you *don't* know - these mussels are hand-picked in France. *This* is how we cook and serve them in France". I was sitting there thinking, ok - I'd been to more than a dozen 3-Michelin-star restaurants all over France in the past 5 years, and NONE of them try to pass off "bad cooking" to non-French customers as "that's the way we liked it". Of course, I never went back there again.
re: klyeoh
Actually I quite like Jiang Nan Chun when Jereme Leung was cooking there, before he went to Shanghai and opened Whampoa Club there. His replacement at Jiang Nan Chun, Sam Leong, was also very talented and he became Tung Lok Group's Executive Chef after that.
re: klyeoh
Chan Kwok is not the Exec Chef there anymore; he was elevated to the stratosphere of "Group Masterchef" a few years ago. I agree that his replacement, Chef Chung, is not of the same calibre.
When they downgraded Hua Ting (e.g. removing the tablecloths, adding more tables), it was symbolic of a turn south in terms of quality, not just the ambience. Perhaps the "casualisation" was done to manage customers' expectations downward also.
re: Julian Teoh
Thanks for the update, Julian. Would be interesting to know where Chung Lap Fai worked prior to Hua Ting. He was here since 1991, so could have been with Chan Kwok all along.
re: klyeoh
According to their bios, Chan Kwok only joined Hua Ting in 1997, 2 years after Chung joined Orchard Hotel in 1995. Sadly, the gulf in quality when Chef Chan stepped down (up?) was very apparent.
On a brighter note, I have been hearing very good things about Wah Lok at the Carlton Hotel. I need to try it soon.
re: Julian Teoh
Wah Lok's long-time chef moved onto Marina Bay Sands' Chinese restaurants after more than two decades at the helm. I haven't tried the new chef's cooking yet, but will be interested to find out.
re: Julian Teoh
Wah Lok still seems good though the former chef moved sometime back.
Sorry, don't agree with your conclusion. Taste Paradise and Imperial Treasure (GWC) are not the top 2 Cantonese in town. In fact, I try to avoid visiting them anymore. These two are just in good location and convenient for those diners who like to dine at top shopping malls in town. I would say Lei Garden, Li Bai and Jade Palace (especially if you want reasonable pricing) are all superior to those two on your list.
And forget about Crystal Jade (Ngee Ann) and Hua Ting too. Tried both these places this year, they don't even deserve to be on my list anymore.
re: FourSeasons
I was back in Li Bai two weeks back - but I thought the cooking standards there are about the same as what Hua Ting produced these days. I used to like Li Bai but that was a long time ago, when it was going head-to-head against Lei Garden (then, still at its original Boulevard Hotel location) and also Fook Yuen at Paragon. It hasn't upped its creativity - Taste Paradise, on the other hand, produced some inventive new dishes, e.g. their laksa-mayo prawns, their momotaro tomatoes with wasabi dressing, and their stonepot sharksfin is the tastiest I'd had in town. Currently, Taste Paradise produced the *best* char-siu in Singapore, and its polo char-siu bao is even better than those I had at Tim Ho Wan in HK (not its over-crowded Singapore branch).
I'd only been back to Lei Garden for dim sum lunch once and a set dinner also once last year - for the dinner, we did not have any large ticket items, e.g. sharksfin or abalone and, whilst the dishes we ordered were of good quality, none were outstanding enough to distinguish them from other good Cantonese restaurants in town. Besides, Lei Garden's turnover of chefs had been quite high in the past year (as what I heard from a friend who's a regular), so standards of cooking from one visit to the next may differ.
Not been back to Jade Palace since a friend's birthday dinner there two years back. But he ordered set dinner for 3 tables of 10 pax each. I didn't have any lasting impression of the meal, but then - the dishes were mass-produced and might not be reflective of the actual standards of cooking there.
P.S. - Glad to hear from you, FS - you've been too quiet on this board for too long. China & SE-Asia board used to be more active than the UK & Ireland board, but now the latter has outstripped us in volume of postings. The Singapore and HK dining scenes are now more expanding faster than ever, and I think our board should reflect that!
re: FourSeasons
Seconded for Jade Palace - great food, but especially for the wine list which is awesome value.
re: Julian Teoh
I'll be visiting Singapore for the first time soon. How would you rate these top restaurants to Hong Kong's finest?
Should I concentrate on other cuisines in Singapore and wait for my HK visit to eat Cantonese?
Any comment on Royal China?
re: Foodnut8
Foodnut8: Top HK Cantonese would be better the ones in Singapore. Why don't you try some other regional ones, e.g. Hokkien, Teochew, etc. Then again there is the local Peranakan and Eurasian food which is unique to this part of the world.
