Brazil's Straw Hat project helps women leave abusive situations
The rise of India's Hindu fundamentalists
Afyare Abdi Elmi | 22 Jul 2010 12:02 GMT | Politics, US & Canada, Bosnia, Eritrea, Ethiopia
Although the international media has under-reported it, the world has recently witnessed a major event in the Horn of Africa - a free, fair and generally peaceful election in Somaliland.
On July 2, Isse Yusuf Mohamud, the chairman of Somaliland's election commission, announced that Ahmed Mohamud Silanyo, the leader of the opposition Kulmiye Party, won the presidential election with 49.59 per cent of the 538,246 votes cast. The incumbent president, Dahir Riyale Kahin, came a distant second with 33.23 per cent of the votes.
International observers declared the election "free and fair" and praised the conduct of political actors and stakeholders involved in the election campaign.Even more significantly, unlike many leaders in the region, Kahin embraced the popular verdict and accepted defeat gracefully.
A peaceful transfer of power is now underway.Two options
However, this significant event brings into focus two contradictory approaches to the future of the region: (1) recognising Somaliland as a new state or (2) establishing the Somali state from Somaliland.
Proponents of the secession of Somaliland as an independent state argue that Somaliland has fulfilled the criteria of statehood - a permanent population, defined borders, territorial control and government.
They also note Somaliland's achievements in the wake of the Somali government's collapse in 1991 - particularly impressive considering the heinous crimes Somalia's military regime committed against the people of the north before it fell - and assert that the region established peace, demonstrated a commitment to democracy and presented mature leadership. Challenges of creating a new state
But creating a new de jure state can only come about from two directions: the international or national front.Internationally, political considerations have often outweighed legal and historical arguments for most of the 25 countries that have joined the UN over the last two decades.
Interestingly, although Bosnia-Herzegovina has not fulfilled all of the criteria for statehood it has been recognised as a state.But, despite the recognition of two permanent members of the Security Council, the US and the UK, and another 67 countries, Kosovo is not yet a member of the UN. Serbia, Russia and many other countries facing secessionist challenges refused to recognise it.
In Africa, only Eritrea has attained de jure statehood since 1992. The African Union recognised it after Ethiopia relinquished its claim and recognised Asmara. The African Union is reluctant to address the issue of recognising new African states because it wants to maintain pre-existing boundaries. It is not a coincidence, therefore, that the African Union has not formally processed Somaliland's application even though it was submitted in December 2005.
For Somaliland to secure a UN seat, it requires the support of the majority of the countries of the African Union, nine members of the Security Council, including the five permanent members, and two-thirds of the General Assembly. In today's security cautious and politically charged atmosphere, consensus among the five permanent members is often difficult to achieve, no matter what the issue.
But with meager resources, Somaliland cannot mobilise the lobbying efforts needed to deliver state recognition. Its ability to access international forums and to impose sanctions if some states refuse to recognise it is limited. Achieving recognition through international channels will, therefore, prove extremely difficult.
The second, and perhaps more feasible, option is through what political scientists call the consent of a parent or partner state - in this case Somalia. If, as in the case of Eritrea and many states that separated from Russia, Somaliland's parent or partner state relinquishes its claim to it, the international community would have no choice but to recognise it.
At this time, however, the Transitional Federal Government (TFG) in Mogadishu has neither the will nor the capacity to make this decision. And the international community has not accepted the dissolution of Somalia as it supports the government and has sent peacekeeping troops there.Neither the national nor the international option, therefore, appear to offer an easy solution.
Radical solution
More from this author:
But, there is an alternative.
A win-win solution for all involved is still possible. Given the fact that efforts to establish a legitimate and functioning Somali state from Mogadishu have failed, the international community and the Somali elite should consider the creation of the Somali state from Somaliland.There are several reasons why the time is ripe for this option.
Firstly, and perhaps most importantly, there are no religious, cultural or language differences separating Somalis - the homogeneity of the Somali people is an obvious reality. Somalis have a shared culture and history and a collective destiny.Moreover, there is no minority issue here. The dominant Isaq clan in Somaliland is one of Somalia's major clans.
Secondly, recent events in Somalia have contributed to maturing the general public and preparing them for a radical change. The two-year-long Ethiopian occupation of southern Somalia has had two unintended consequences. It has revealed the vulnerability of all Somalis regardless of region and, by displacing hundreds of thousands from the south, it has increased levels of contact between average Somalis, thus having a normalising effect.
For the first time, there is a growing realisation among large segments of Somali society that their survival is interlinked. Religious, cultural, language and ethnic unity can, therefore, be more easily transformed into a political order that is at peace with itself and its neighbours.
Thirdly, the transitional government in Mogadishu is struggling against multi-clan extremist groups, many of whom are from the north. Unless a miracle occurs, the TFG's chances of success are slim. And with just one year until the government's mandate ends, the establishment of a state from Somaliland offers more promise than yet another conference producing a dysfunctional government or an extension of the TFG's mandate.
Finally, Somaliland's experiences and institutions can easily, in theory at least, be replicated in the rest of Somalia.Dialogue and consensus
In a globalised world, life is not easy without a stable, legitimate, functioning and recognised state.Somalis in the south long for peace and stability, while those in more stable regions experience difficulty in accessing development assistance or in travelling to nearby countries for work or trade. Young Somalis who perish in the desert between Sudan and Libya or on the Mediterranean Sea come from across Somalia.
Establishing the Somali state from Somaliland would be one feasible option that the world should consider. Perhaps, moving the main UN agencies in Nairobi to Hargaysa would be the first step towards this end.
In the final analysis, however, the ultimate decision on either unity or separation has to come through dialogue and consensus. In other words, neither force nor emotion-driven rhetoric will take the country anywhere - a genuine debate must begin.

There's some good news for those who rely on the Toledo Area Regional Paratransit Service. The group has announced that it will give free rides on regular buses for special paratransit rides or TARPS riders beginning Nov. 1.
The company is hoping the offer will sway those who qualify to take regular transit bus services in hopes of freeing up the higher price TARPS service for other passengers.
??We know there will be savings; but, until we know how many eligible riders utilize the service, we can??t predict TARTA??s savings,?? said TARTA General Manager James K. Gee.
Those looking to ride regular buses must be able to get to and from all bus stops on their own and show TARPS identification.

The Dodgers' top prospect, Corey Seager, would have been in the lineup for Friday's game in Mobile against the BayBears except for the rain.
Friday night's game was postponed due to inclement weather. The game will be made up as part of a doubleheader Saturday evening with first pitch in game one scheduled for 6:05 PM ET at Hank Aaron Stadium.
To make room for Seager, Alberto Rosario has been moved to the disabled list. The Lookouts need a spark since they have lost 5-of-their-last 6 games, and three consecutive games.
Seager, 20, was promoted after he batted .352 with 18 home runs in 80 games at Class A Rancho Cucamonga. He led the California League with 34 doubles, a .633 slugging percentage and a 1.044 OPS.
Seager was one of the Dodgers' two representatives at Sunday's Futures Game. He was allowed to stay in Minneapolis an extra couple of days to see his brother, Kyle Seager, play in the All-Star Game for the American League Tuesday.
The Dodgers signed the infielder to a $2.35 million bonus after making him the 18th pick overall.
Kyle Seager is the third baseman for the Seattle Mariners. Their middle brother, Justin Seager, is also in the Mariners farm system. He was the 2013 Atlantic 10 Co-Player of the Year while a member of the Charlotte 49ers.
From MLB.com
MINNEAPOLIS -- Starting at shortstop, Seager went 0-for-1 and was hit by a pitch in Sunday's SiriusXM All-Star Futures Game for the U.S. squad in its 3-2 victory over the World team. The experience was a nice transition for Seager, a reward of sorts. Because instead of returning to the Dodgers' Rancho Cucamonga Class A Advanced affiliate upon leaving Minnesota, Seager will join the organization's Double-A Chattanooga affiliate.
The 20-year-old understood the implications of his promotion. "They say that Double-A is the best competition ..." He didn't finish the sentence, but he didn't have to. Double-A is widely considered the primary stepping-stone en route to the Major Leagues -- a destination that has been envisioned for Seager since the Dodgers selected him in the first round (18th overall) of the 2012 First-Year Player Draft.
MLB.com ranked Seager as the Dodgers' top prospect and 28th-best among Minor Leaguers from all organizations.

Organist says instrument is 'unique, beautiful'; Cleis Jordan's musical career spans 59 years
The organ at St. Andrew's Episcopal Church in Roswell is a Baroque-style tracker organ built by the Bedient Pipe Organ Company in Nebraska. A tracker organ has mechanical linkage between the keys and pipe valves, so for the musician the key pressure changes as stops are added or subtracted. (Timothy P. Howsare Photo)
By Shannon Seyler
Special to the Record
The pipe organ at St. Andrew's Episcopal Church in Roswell is a unique instrument, one that has long been entrusted to the capable hands of Cleis Jordan, a professional organist with 59 years of experience.
Such a complex instrument requires the expertise of a highly skilled musician. Jordan holds a bachelor's degree in music education from Northwestern University, and a Master of Arts degree in organ performance from the University of Houston.
"For a small church in a small town, we are doubly-blessed," says Janet Macaluso, choir director at St. Andrew's Episcopal Church. "Not only do we have a unique and beautiful organ, but we have an amazingly skilled and knowledgeable person to play it for us every week of the year. Cleis is one-of-a-kind."
Jordan is always glad to discuss and promote pipe organ music. Describing the St. Andrew's organ, Jordan says, "this Baroque style tracker organ was built by the Bedient Pipe Organ Company in Nebraska. It has two keyboards and a full pedalboard. There are a Login to read more

Ju-on: The Curse 2000
(NOTE: This review is for both Ju-on: The Curse AND Ju-on: The Curse 2)
These are NOT the Japanese cinematic releases Ju-on: The Grudge or Ju-on: The Grudge 2 from 2002 and 2003 respectively, the first of which was remade by Takashi Shimizu for Hollywood as simply The Grudge (2004) starring Sarah Michelle Gellar. These are the first full-length entries in the Ju-on franchise, released straight to video at the start of the millennium, and they're f*cking excellent.

Monsters: Dark Continent 2014
Monsters: Dark Continent (Green, 2014): No big wordy review, it was rubbish. The monsters - when you actually get to see them - are absolutely spectacular, like something out of a Lovecraftian nightmare. Unfortunately, they're almost always WAY off in the background, superfluous in their own movie. This was largely true of the first feature too but front and centre that time was an interesting piece of intimate human drama. This time it's a cliche-ridden, barely-comprehensible and frankly boring tale…

Dredd 2012
About a million years ago (1980-85ish), when I was a boy, I bought a comic each and every week called 2000AD. And I loved it. I mean, properly LOVED it. The flagship strip in this publication was (and all these years later, remains) Judge Dredd. The titular lead character (his name, a play on that of novelty UK ska/reggae artist Judge Dread - who himself lifted the moniker from a Prince Buster tune - although there any similarity ends, absolutely)…
Chronicle 2012
Awkward loner Andrew (Dane DeHaan, soon to appear as Harry Osborn in The Amazing Spider-Man 2) is invited by his more affable cousin Matt (Alex Russell, Bait, Carrie) to go to a party, to help cheer him up. Andrew has problems at home; his mother is dying of cancer, the cost of her medication has become prohibitive, and his dad is an abusive drunk. Andrew brings with him the bulky old video camera he's been using of late to document...…

Apple acquires Mapsense
Apple has made another acquisition in efforts to continue building up its Maps infrastructure, Re/code reports. The company this month acquired Mapsense, a startup that builds location data analysis and visualization tools, paying somewhere between $25 million and $30 million for the small twelve-person team, according to multiple sources familiar with the details. Apple provided its usual generic statement that it "buys smaller technology companies from time to time, and we generally do not discuss our purpose or plans."
Most screen protectors should work with 3D Touch
Apple's Phil Schiller has confirmed that screen protectors should not interfere with the sensitivity of Apple's new 3D Touch display on the iPhone 6s and iPhone 6s Plus, according to 3D Techtronics. While there were some concerns that the presence of a screen protector overlay might interfere with 3D Touch operations by changing the pressure sensitivity on the new displays, Schiller replies to an email from the blog stating that "screen overlays that follow [Apple's] guidelines will continue to work with 3D Touch."
Apple releases iMovie 2.2
As hinted at during last week's event, Apple has released iMovie 2.2, an update designed primarily to bring 4K video editing support for the new iPhone 6s, iPhone 6s Plus, and iPad Pro. In addition to 4K video, the update also introduces support for 1080p video at 60fps and adds 3D Touch interactions for the new iPhone models. Several iPad enhancements have also been added, including a new user interface design for the iPad Pro, including a full-height media browser and 1080 HD viewer, support for editing shortcuts on external keyboards, improved Inspector controls, and redesigned Project Details and Video views. The new version also adds support for Slide Over and Split View along with a redesigned Audio Browser in the iMovie Extension for Photos.
Apple releases iTunes 12.3
Apple has released iTunes 12.3, which addresses several issues with Apple Music support and enables two-factor authentication security. This latest release specifically notes fixes for Apple Music and VoiceOver support, reordering songs in Up Next, radio stations appearing in Recently Played, and syncing of Loved songs between iOS and iTunes. iTunes 12.3 is now available as a software update in the Mac App Store, or as a direct download from iTunes.com.
Apple releases iOS 9
As announced last week, Apple has released iOS 9, its latest operating system for the iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch. The update should now be available for over-the-air installation via Settings, General, Software Update, or by connecting to iTunes and using the Check for Updates option. Described by Apple as its "most advanced mobile experience", the new version includes more intelligent Siri features, proactive suggestions, new keyboard and multitasking features for iPad users, and a number of under-the-hood performance and stability improvements. Stay tuned for our iOS 9 Instant Expert feature, filling you in on everything you need to know about iOS 9.
Apple delays release of watchOS 2
Apple is delaying the release of watchOS 2, which Apple Watch owners were expecting to see today alongside the release of iOS 9, TechCrunch reports. "We have discovered a bug in development of watchOS 2 that is taking a bit longer to fix than we expected," an Apple spokesperson said. "We will not release watchOS 2 today but will shortly." Apple didn't say specifically which part of the OS was affected by the bug or set a date for watchOS 2's eventual release. The company has only pushed back a major OS release once before, when a VoIP bug was discovered in iOS 4.2 in 2010. Today's release of iOS 9 seems to be unaffected by whatever hindered watchOS 2 and is still on schedule for 1 p.m. Eastern Time.
Incipio acquires Incase
Mobile device accessory maker Incipio Technologies has acquired Incase Designs, which specializes in laptop bags and cases for Apple devices. The move comes on the heels of Incipio buying up iPad keyboard case and peripheral manufacturer ClamCase this June and two years after the company acquired speaker manufacturer Braven. Incase's product lines further expand Incipio's reach into Apple-specific accessories, while Incipio's distribution network will allow Incase to expand its market globally. Financial terms of the deal remain confidential, but like Braven and ClamCase, Incase will continue as its own standalone brand with its own headquarters.
Cook hits funny and serious notes in Late Show appearance
Stephen Colbert got his hands on a rose gold iPhone 6s during his interview with Apple CEO Tim Cook Tuesday on The Late Show, taking viewers through the basics of how to work the device's 3D Touch technology within email. A light touch gave Colbert what Cook called a "peek," a quick glance at the email he selected. A harder press resulted in a "pop," actually opening the email for full viewing. The host noticed the haptic feedback immediately, saying, "It kind of touches me back." Colbert even created a slapstick comedy bit with the phone's new Live Photos feature, which records video during the second and a half before and after a photo is taken. The host pressed Cook on comments made by Uber CEO Travis Kalanick last week, who casually suggested that Apple was working on its own car project during his own interview with Colbert. Cook gave a standard non-answer, saying only, "We look at a number of things along the way and we decide to really put our energies in a few of those."
CBS to bring All Access to Apple TV?
CBS is planning to launch its All Access service for the Apple TV, according to a new report from 9to5Mac. Citing sources with knowledge of the matter, the $6/month All Access subscription service could be coming to Apple TV "in the near future." The service has just been announced for the Android TV platform, however, a deal could apparently not be worked out with Apple in time for the launch of the new Apple TV. The CBS All Access service provides subscribers with live streaming from local CBS TV stations and on-demand access to a library of 6,500 TV episodes, and is currently available for iOS, Android, and Roku, but remains the one major service missing from the Apple TV platform. In its press release earlier today, CBS did note that support for "additional connected devices" is coming, although no specific platforms were mentioned.
Apple TV games must be playable with included remote
Games made for the new Apple TV must support the device's included remote, according to the App Programming Guide for tvOS, as pointed out by developer Dustin Westphal in a recent tweet. Although the device will support third-party controllers, those controllers can't be required to play a game. This represents a change — as recently as last week, Apple allowed developers to require an extended game controller. Apple's guide also notes "tvOS games that support controllers must support the extended control layout," and games that support that layout must be playable solely using one standalone controller. All controllers for tvOS games must also have a pause button. [via TouchArcade]
Report: Apple moving all cloud services to single open source platform
Apple is beginning the process of shifting all of its cloud-based services to the open-source platform Mesos, The Information reports. After migrating Siri to Mesos earlier this year, Apple is combining all its cloud services onto one platform in the hopes of making it easier to deploy and scale new applications. The move will also make integrating all of Apple's myriad products less cumbersome, but the company could have other motivations as well, with the report noting that Apple's past secrecy about its code and internal technology has made it difficult to recruit open-source developers whose portfolios rely on being able to share their work publicly. Regardless of the reasons for the switch, implementing the changes is expected to take years to finish, so users won't see the results of the shift for quite some time. [via 9to5Mac]
Report: Apple expanding mapping operations at R&D facility
Apple is expanding its mapping research operations at a facility in Sweden, according to Swedish site DiGITAL. Citing a report from Rapidus, the site claims that after acquiring Swedish mapping company C3 Technologies in 2011, Apple quietly kept working on C3's 3D modeling method, based on combinations of images taken by airplanes and cars from different angles. The new story claims Apple has been further developing that technology out of a facility in Lund, Sweden since last November, recently ramping up hiring. Apple has doubled down on improving its maps in recent years, sending its own vans out to collect data and acquiring other companies — like mapping firm Broadmap in 2013 and GPS firm Coherent Navigation this May — in addition to adding its new Transit feature to the Maps app in the upcoming iOS 9 release. [via 9to5Mac]
Burberry channel launches on Apple Music
Luxury fashion house Burberry is the first brand to get its own channel on Apple Music, exclusively spotlighting British acts, Fortune reports. While a clothing and accessories brand may seem a strange fit for Apple Music, the company has been showcasing British music on its Burberry Acoustic site since 2010. Burberry also has deep ties to Apple leadership, with current Apple retail head Angela Ahrendts leaving Burberry's CEO position to join Apple in 2013, then bringing Burberry's former social media chief Musa Tariq over to Apple the following year. Burberry's Apple Music channel includes playlists featuring emerging British talent, songs used on the runway and even a personal playlist from Burberry CEO Christopher Bailey, who said "I am excited about our partnership with Apple on this amazing platform which will enable us to take what we do now with Burberry Acoustic and share it with an even bigger audience." The launch will include a series of special videos and a concert by Alison Moyet held at Burberry's womenswear show in London next week.
New 3D Touch display makes new iPhones heavier
While the iPhone 6s and iPhone 6s Plus are relatively close in size to the iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus, respectively, Apple's latest product environmental reports show the new models are around 11 to 12 percent heavier, mostly due to the new 3D Touch screen technology. The display for the iPhone 6s weighs in at 29g, more than double the 12g weight of the display in the iPhone 6. The iPhone 6s Plus display weighs 40g compared to the iPhone 6 Plus' 19g display, again, more than double the weight. Even with a marked decrease in the circuit board weight in both new phones and a slight drop in battery weight in the iPhone 6s (the iPhone 6s Plus' battery weight stayed the same), both of the new models added enough weight in displays and glass to account for a 10.9 percent increase in weight for the iPhone 6s over the iPhone 6, and an 11.6 percent increase in weight for the iPhone 6s Plus over the iPhone 6 Plus.
Apple shutting down HopStop app in October
In a banner message to users on its website, HopStop announced it will no longer be available in October, as Apple said it will be shutting down the popular transit directions app, according to 9to5Mac. Apple acquired HopStop in 2013 in an effort to improve its own transit directions in Apple Maps, and with those improvements coming online when iOS 9 launches on Sept. 16, Apple is shutting down HopStop's app. The plan will leave some users in the lurch, as the transit feature in Apple Maps currently supports far fewer cities than the HopStop app. Apple is reportedly working quickly to close that gap — aiming to expand to cities like Boston and Tokyo, Japan by next year — and already provides transit directions for many areas outside those listed on it website, but in the meantime HopStop's exit could leave users in countries like Russia, Israel and Australia without a working solution.
Report: Supply problems limiting iPhone 6s Plus availability
In a note to investors, KGI analyst Ming-Chi Kuo claims that the iPhone 6s Plus is facing serious supply shortages due to backlight module production issues at Japanese supplier Minebea. Kuo said Apple is transferring module orders to alternate supplier Radiant in an effort to keep up, increasing that company's orders to 4 to 5 million units in September. While Apple has cited record-breaking demand for the three to four-week wait times some users are seeing when trying to pre-order an iPhone 6s Plus, Kuo points to the supply problems as the cause. He expects Apple to have between 1.5 million and 2 million iPhone 6s Plus units available for sale on the Sept. 25 launch date. [via MacRumors]
New BMW CEO open to Apple partnership
BMW's new CEO told German newspaper Sueddeutsche Zeitung that he is open to exploring a deeper partnership with Apple, Reuters reports. Last year, Apple CEO Tim Cook met with senior managers working on BMW's i3 electric car and opened negotiations to use the body of the i3 as the basis for Apple's own electric car. Those talks broke off amid big personnel changes at BMW, with Apple opting to pursue creating a car on its own and BMW skeptical of sharing its manufacturing expertise with outsiders, but BMW's incoming CEO Harald Krueger said similarities between the BMW and Apple brands provide the potential for both companies to benefit from a partnership. "Fundamentally, both partners need to profit from the cooperation, otherwise it will not last. And both companies need to share the same principles, for example with regard to data security," Krueger said.
Apple claims it's on pace to break opening weekend iPhone sales record
Apple said strong pre-orders of the iPhone 6s and iPhone 6s Plus have put the company on pace to beat last year's 10 million unit first weekend record, CNBC reports. The company said online demand for the iPhone 6s Plus exceeded its own forecasts and that it's "working to catch up as quickly as we can," while still guaranteeing that both iPhone 6s and iPhone 6s Plus units will be available at Apple retail stores when they open next Friday. Online demand in China was particularly high, with wait times for the iPhone 6s Plus at three to four weeks and waits for the iPhone 6s around two to three weeks, as of last Saturday.
Apple News ad restrictions angering media companies
Irate media company executives are complaining that the Apple News app to be released with iOS 9 next week is too restrictive on advertising content, the New York Post reports. The company has placed unconventional restrictions on ad formats and requires strict approval hurdles for ad campaigns, leading one unnamed senior news executive to say, "[Apple News is] giving us some great ways to distribute our product, but they're not giving us a lot of ways to monetize it." Popular tools like real-time bidding for ad placements aren't supported yet, and Apple has refused to accommodate Google's Doubleclick, one of the most popular tools for placing and tracking online ads. Apple's requirement that the company be allowed to approve every ad campaign within 48 hours' notice and refusal to run pre-roll video ads without direct vetting has also made the process "very difficult," according to another news executive. While publishers like CNN, Vox Media and Time Inc. have agreed to make most of their content available on the new app, others with strong paid subscription models like The New York Times and Wall Street Journal are reportedly restricting Apple News to a few dozen stories a day. Apple didn't respond to a request for comment.
Report: iPad Pro has 4GB of RAM, iPhone 6s has 2GB
Not much of a surprise but Xcode confirms 2GB of RAM for the 6s (and 6s plus), and 4GB for the iPad Pro pic.twitter.com/X8Ym4DtamS— Hamza Sood (@hamzasood) September 13, 2015
Developer Hamza Sood claims that a clever hack of Xcode's asset catalogs confirms that the iPad Pro will contain 4GB of RAM and the iPhone 6s and iPhone 6s Plus will each feature 2GB. Adobe posted similar specs for the iPad Pro's RAM last week before quickly taking down the information. To find out if the information was accurate, Sood set assets in Xcode that would load different images depending on the device's RAM capacity. If the figures hold up, that means the new iPhones have twice the RAM of the iPhone 6 and the iPad Pro also has double the RAM of the iPad Air 2. [via 9to5Mac]

- Grab a $40 voucher at Sichuan In Remuera Restaurant for $20, to spend on a yum cha lunch or an a la carte dinner.
- Gather together with family and friends to indulge in a favourite Chinese pastime.
- Try some incredible dumplings, rice rolls and cha siu bao along with many other incredible dim sum treats.
Let us give all you Grabbies out there a little lesson about yum cha. Traditionally known in Cantonese to mean "drink tea", it's been a solid part of Chinese tradition for years – and a damn good one. In fact we can't resist a traditional a la carte Chinese dinner either. Any tradition that involves getting together with family and friends and sharing a tonne of masterfully created and cooked treats is something I could never pass up.
Pay $20 for a $40 voucher to spend on a yum cha lunch or an a la carte dinner at Sichuan In Remuera Restaurant and enjoy a feast of flavours. Specialising in traditional Cantonese and Sichuan cuisine, their magnificent chefs and staff make every single visit one to remember.
As the choices for yum cha are so vast there's no stomach that won't be satisfied after a visit to Sichuan. Try their dumplings with a hint of soy sauce or the rice rolls for a wonderful surprise. You may not be familiar with all that's on offer but that's the fun part! Be adventurous and try a few favourites like lo mai gai cradled in lotus leaf and the char sui steamed buns. Finish your meal with a few sweet egg tarts or any one of their dessert snacks and relax with a nice cup of tea. Their dinner menu is not to shabby either with everything from deep fried whole blue cod with soy sauce to beef with black bean sauce. Whenever you choose to go, you'll find delicious options and friendly service.

Voucher Guarantee
Getting more bang for your buck
Good news:
GrabOne's Voucher Guarantee means missing out on claiming your deal in time no longer means losing out altogether!
How does it work?
- A voucher is valid up to and including the expiry date stated.
- If you don't use your voucher before that date for whatever reason, it can still be used towards that service with that business for an additional 30 days.
For example, if you buy a bungy jump deal but don't use it before the expiry date, you can still use the amount you paid for the voucher towards a bungy jump, for another 30 days.
A few things to note:
- The GrabOne Voucher Guarantee does not apply to product deals, travel and accommodation-related deals, or time-dependent event deals.
- It's always best to use your voucher before the expiry date, so you get the most value for your money. And if you're a bit forgetful, we now automatically remind you if your vouchers are about to expire.
- During the extended Voucher Guarantee period, your voucher can only be put towards the service stated on the voucher.
- If the offer is seasonal, like a seasonal menu or chimney sweep service, the Voucher Guarantee can be put towards a similar offer at the merchant's discretion.
- The conditions on your voucher still apply during the Voucher Guarantee period.

Due to inclement weather in the area, the Virginia softball team's fall tournament scheduled for Saturday in Troutville was canceled.
The Virginia volleyball team landed 15 service aces, led by nine from senior Kayla Sears, to defeat Pittsburgh, 3-1 (25-27, 25-21, 27-25, 28-26), on Friday night in Memorial Gymnasium.
With 25 verbal commitments for their 2016 class, the Cavaliers are tied with Army for the most pledges at this point of the recruiting season.
Nobody has seen more UVa football games than Risher. Heck, he even played in one.
UVa junior Patrick Foss scored on a long free kick in the final minutes to lift the Cavaliers.
One month into the season, the ACC looks as top-heavy as ever with three-time defending champion Florida State and Clemson the league's only ranked teams.
The Virginia men's basketball team will host the Pepsi Blue-White intrasquad scrimmage at John Paul Jones Arena on Saturday, Oct. 24. Admission and parking for the event will be free.
Virginia fans had little to celebrate last week after being humiliated on national TV by Boise State. One bright spot was the return of receiver T.J. Thorpe, who dazzled the crowd with a 75-yard catch and run for a TD on his first touch as a Cavalier.

I loved this dish. The flavours complimented each other perfectly. Using only stuff from my garden, I had only 14 oz of potatoes but made up with more corn. My 9 1/2 inch pie dish was probably smaller than the one suggested but with the reduced volume of potatoes, the mixture did not overflow during cooking. I added about 10 minutes to the cook time- this possibly helped to cook the potatoes. I used one green and one red poblano. Very nice!flag if inappropriate
Perfect for a winter potluck! I used the proportions suggested in the recipe, and for the dish used a white porcelain casserole dish, which just barely held everything. instead of putting oil in the dish, I sprayed with cooking spray, and I followed someone else's suggestion of putting pepper throughout every layer. I was worried that it would need more seasoning, but it tasted great as specified in the recipe. I used fresh mozzarella as the cheese.flag if inappropriate
Amazing! THis was creamy, smokey, and fantastic! Couldn't locate the cheese so I substituted Queso Blanco. Turned out perfectly and I can't wait to make it again!flag if inappropriate
I really enjoyed the flavors but next time I will make a few changes in the process. All the pepper settled to the bottom of the half and half and ended up heavy on the potatoes that got the last of it poured over them. I would salt and pepper the layers directly rather than putting it in the liquid. Cooking at 400F there was some curdling of the half and half. I would make a roux based sauce with the half and half and cheese. I would say I'm quite likely to make again with those couple changes.flag if inappropriate
It would have been *really* nice if the author of this recipe had stated what size baking dish was needed in terms of volume (2 quart? 3 quart?) instead of a "deep-dish glass pie dish" (what is that anyway?). I had to try three baking dishes before I got one that everything would fit into.flag if inappropriate
Excellent! I liked the corn, gave it a great taste. Used only 1/2 of the poblano, otherwise too spicy hot.flag if inappropriate
Poblanos, cheese, potato and corn with a creamy texture all together is a winner. The poblanos give the dish a nice deep smoky flavor without being "hot and spicy." Being from the southwest, this would be a great addition to our Thanksgiving or Christmas table rather than the traditional mashed potatoes. Love it.flag if inappropriate
Very, very tasty. I too had trouble with the cooking time, however. I don't have a Mandoline but felt I had cut the potatoes to the appropriate width. We had a late dinner, but it was worth the wait.flag if inappropriate
This was fantastic, we both went back for seconds! I made a few minor adjustments but I followed the recipe for the most part. I roasted the poblano peppers instead of sauteing them and then I used the frozen "roasted corn" from trader joes which gave it a really nice smoky flavor. I couldn't find the Oaxaca cheese so I used a mixture of mexican blend shredded cheese and gruyere. I thought the cooking times were accurate, I think the trick is to use the mandolin to cut the potatoes super thin. I even took it out 5 minutes early since the cheese was brown and it was cooked all the way through. This is a keeper!flag if inappropriate
Simple and delicious. A new dish to add to our stable of comfort food delights. Like many of the reviewers, I had to increase the cook time for this dish. Served with a side salad and glass of wine. Looking forward to making this again and experimenting with a few other variations on the recipe.flag if inappropriate

American Experience: The Abolitionists. Radicals. Agitators. Troublemakers. Liberators. Called many names, the abolitionists tore the nation apart in order to create a more perfect union. Men and women, black and white, Northerners and Southerners, poor and wealthy-these passionate anti-slavery activists fought body and soul in the most important civil rights crusade in American history. What began as a pacifist movement fueled by persuasion and prayer became a fiery and furious struggle that forever changed the nation. Bringing to life the intertwined stories of Frederick Douglass, William Lloyd Garrison, Angelina Grimk+ª, Harriet Beecher Stowe, and John Brown, The Abolitionists takes place during some of the most violent and contentious decades in American history. It reveals how the movement shaped history by exposing the fatal flaw of a republic founded on liberty for some and bondage for others. In the face of personal risks-beatings, imprisonment, even death-abolitionists held fast to their cause, laying the civil rights groundwork for the future and raising weighty constitutional and moral questions that are still with us today. Directed by Rob Rapley, The Abolitionists interweaves drama with traditional documentary storytelling, and stars Richard Brooks, Neal Huff, Jeanine Serralles, Kate Lyn Sheil, and T. Ryder Smith, vividly bringing to life the epic struggles of the men and women who ended slavery.
