Dina Danon
Assistant Professor
Professor Dina Danon's research focuses on the eastern Sephardi diaspora during modern times and draws heavily on previously unexplored Ladino language archival material. Danon is particularly interested in social history and how its tools help revise prevailing scholarship not only on the Sephardi world but on Jewish modernity as a whole. She is currently completing her first book, entitled The Jews of Ottoman Izmir: A Modern History (forthcoming, Stanford University Press 2020). Capturing the voices of both destitute beggars and lay oligarchs, peddlers and guildsmen, housewives and rabbis, the book underscores the centrality of poverty and social class to the community's modern transformations. Her work has most recently appeared in the International Journal of Turkish Studies. Her second project, which she will develop as a fellow at the Katz Center for Advanced Judaic Studies at the University of Pennsylvania during the 2018-19 academic year, explores the marketplace of matchmaking, marriage, and divorce in the Ottoman Sephardi world.

Substance abuse disorder is an often misunderstood and stigmatized disease. It shatters careers, finances, families, and health. In many cases, addiction is fatal. In fact, more than 72,000 Americans died from drug overdoses in 2017.
But with the right treatment and proper planning, recovery is possible. With a degree in Addictions and Recovery, you'll learn how to improve quality of life for individuals with addiction. In doing so, you'll help fight the addiction crisis and save lives.
What kind of Addictions and Recovery degree should you get?
The level of degree you need depends on your state. While some states require a license and a bachelor's degree to work as a substance abuse counselor, others require a master's degree. Either way, earning your bachelor's degree is an important first step.
These programs are available both on campus and online. Both options have their advantages. Of course, earning your degree online gives you the freedom to shape your own schedule. If online classes are right for you, but you're unsure about the field of addiction and recovery, browse our list of "Best Online Colleges and Universities."
How much money do people make with an Addictions and Recovery degree?
According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, the median salary for substance abuse counselors is $43,300. Pay varies based on your credentials and where you live. New Mexico, Alaska, and North Dakota have the highest salaries for substance abuse counselors. They're closely trailed by New Jersey and New York.
Over the next ten years, projected job growth is 23 percent. This is much faster than average, partly because more insurance companies are now financing substance abuse treatment. Additionally, more people are seeking treatment as addiction stigma lessens.
What can you do with an Addictions and Recovery degree?
A degree in Addictions and Recovery prepares you to work as a substance abuse counselor in a variety of settings. You may work at a school, hospital, rehabilitation or treatment center, prison, or community agency. Another option is to open a private practice. This path requires a master's degree.
Alternatively, you can pursue a career as a crisis counselor, case manager, or parole/probation officer.
What are the requirements for a degree in Addictions and Recovery?
Online degree programs for Addictions and Recovery typically require 120 credits. Depending on your pace, this can take 2-5 years to complete.
You'll likely learn about case management, theories related to addiction, general information about psychology and the brain, and more. You may be required to complete an internship or practicum. Some programs require students to complete 300-350 hours of relevant work.
What are the best online Addictions and Recovery degrees?
To create this list, we considered factors including school reputation, tuition, and overall return on investment. Plus, each program on this list is accredited. This means they've undergone an extensive review process and have met specific academic criteria.

Neal Martin Wine Advocate Issue #200 Apr 2012 (92-94) Drink 2015 - 2035.
The impressive Lafaurie Peyraguey has a light but well-defined, almond-scented nose with a satisfactory level of botrytis. With aeration, hints of pineapple begin to emerge with aromas of vanilla and white peach. The palate is medium-bodied with a very composed, very pure entry and a keen thread of acidity. It shows admirable weight and botrytization, with a gorgeous spicy finish that has impressive persistency.
James Suckling : 93-94
A dense and rich Sauternes with nutmeg, dried mushroom, sweet apples and honey. Full, very sweet and long. Very concentrated.

I'm an AWS Certified Solutions Architect!
October 23, 2015
I'm pleased to report that as of Wednesday afternoon I'm an AWS Certified Solutions Architect — Associate. While I've been working in/on/around AWS for years now, it's nice to have the certification that proves I know what I'm doing. Amazon's testing, unlike a lot of the certifications in tech (I'm looking at you CompTIA A+), is 100% about the real world. While that makes it harder, it makes the testing all the more invaluable.

From sexuality and health to childcare, the arts and legal rights, Spare Rib offers a wealth of themes to explore.
About Spare Rib
The feminist magazine Spare Rib ran from 1972 to 1993. It set out to re-define what it was to be a woman in 20th century Britain. So how did it get started and what, exactly was it all about?Read more
Arts and culture
Women's creativity and self-expression was at the heart of Spare Rib. Not only did the magazine include a rich and diverse range of fiction and poetry alongside reviews of books, films, dance, theatre, art and photography, but it was also a work of art in its own right.Read more
Family, housework and childcare
Feminists have debated the role of the family and domestic life for decades. Where mainstream women's magazines focused on cleaning methods, recipes and activities to do with the children, Spare Rib challenged the domestic status quo and exploded the myth of 'women's work'.Read more
Representation and identity
Women's liberation was all about a re-defining of what it was to be a woman, a re-evaluation of how women saw themselves and were seen via mass media and advertising. As the movement evolved, the voices of many different women entered the debate; black women, working class women, lesbians and disabled women. Spare Rib provided the forum for the playing out of this 'identity politics', both in its articles and news pages and within the collective itself.Read more
Rights and justice
Spare Rib was at the heart of feminist campaigns. With its photography and reportage it provided a window on the feminist revolution as it unfolded. Never just the journalistic bystander, it was also there at the demonstrations and the marches, its Spare Rib banner held high.Read more
Sex, sexuality and health
Women's sexual self-determination, control over their reproductive capacity, and the end of discrimination towards lesbians was of primary importance to the women's liberation movement. Spare Rib covered these issues and challenged the patriarchal make-up and attitudes of the health service in what was no less than a revolution in women's healthcare.Read more
Work and education
Feminists thought that fundamental change was needed in the worlds of work and education in order to end the oppression of women in society. Spare Rib was committed to ending sexism in the workplace and in schools and ran a series of articles and news items about this.Read more

ZSX Primus II
Call for Price
Tube-above wavelength dispersive X-ray fluorescence spectrometer
High performance WDXRF for rapid quantitative elemental analysis
Rigaku ZSX Primus II delivers rapid quantitative determination of major and minor atomic elements, from beryllium (Be) through uranium (U), in a wide variety of sample types — with minimal standards.
Tube above optics for superior reliability
ZSX Primus II features an innovative optics-above configuration. Never again worry about a contaminated beam path or down time due to sample chamber maintenance. The optics-above geometry eliminates cleaning worries and increases up time.
Low-Z performance with mapping and multi-spot analysis
Providing superior performance with the flexibility for analyzing the most complex samples, the ZSX Primus II features a 30 micron tube, the thinnest end-window tube available in the industry, for exceptional light element (low-Z) detection limits. Combined with the most advanced mapping package to detect homogeneity and inclusions, the ZSX Primus II allows easy detailed investigation of samples that provide analytical insights not easily obtained by other analytical methodologies. Available multi-spot analysis also helps to eliminate sampling errors in inhomogeneous materials.
SQX fundamental parameters with EZ-scan software
EZ-scan allows users to analyze unknown samples without any prior setup. This time saving feature requires only a few clicks of the mouse and a sample name to be entered. Combined with SQX fundamental parameters software, it provides the most accurate and rapid XRF results possible. SQX is capable of automatically correcting for all matrix effects, including line overlaps. SQX can also correct for secondary excitation effect by photoelectrons (light and ultra-light elements), varying atmospheres, impurities and different sample sizes. Increased accuracy is achieved using matching library and perfect scan analysis programs.
- Analysis of elements from Be to U
- Tube above optics minimizes contamination issues
- Small footprint uses less valuable lab space
- Micro analysis to analyze samples as small as 500 µm

Trevor Moniz is a King's Law alumnus (graduated 1975) who was awarded the Helen Hudson award last year in recognition of the outstanding support he showed to staff, students and alumni in organising successful World questions|King's answers campaign events in Bermuda as well as his fundraising efforts for the Somerset House East Wing refurbishment.
He was recently appointed Minister of Public Works of Bermuda- the oldest and most populous British Overseas Territory. Throughout his political career, Mr Moniz has worked towards creating a more modern and democratic Bermuda that keeps its ties with the UK while maintaining its beauty and Old World charm. He campaigned against independence for Bermuda in 1995 and backed the banning of fast food franchises there in 1997.
In December, his party The One Bermuda Alliance won the general election, replacing the Progressive Labour Party who had held power for 14 years. Mr Moniz was appointed Minister of Public Works, one of the largest ministries and one that has been plagued by corruption and inefficiency.
Trevor Moniz receiving the Helen Hudson Award from the Principal, Professor Sir Richard Trainor on 9 June 2012
What are the main responsibilities as Minister of Public Works and how do you plan to change and improve this ministry?
Public Works is responsible for much of the physical infrastructure of Bermuda and I hope to put the Ministry on a more rational and consistent footing. There is plenty of work to do! The largest project may be the design and building of a new bridge or causeway between the main island and the East End and the airport which might cost $100 million.
Why did you choose to study Law at King's and how was your time at College?
In 1969 I was awarded the GCE Mathematics prize at my school and was presented with 'The Double Helix' written by James Watson. The book recounted some of the seminal work by Maurice Wilkins, Rosalind Franklin and others at King's College London, which was the first time I had heard of King's. This, along with my later knowledge of KCL's excellent reputation for the teaching of Law, inspired me to apply to the College.
The idea of London was attractive to me, too. I had never been out of the 20 square miles of Bermuda before I was engulfed by London. It turned out to be an exciting but challenging city to live in. I used to visit the British Museum and went to the House of Commons one evening on a whim to listen to a debate between the respective MPs for Cardiff and Bristol.
I greatly enjoyed my time at the College. Within the first couple of weeks, I was both thrilled and daunted to take part in the big march where King's was led by the then Principal General Sir John Hackett. [the 1973 student march in favour of higher student grants]
As for its impact on my career, my time at King's Law School [now The Dickson Poon School of Law] laid a very sound legal and academic foundation as a road to my future success.
Why did you choose to move from law into politics?
I have deeply held ethical and moral convictions, but the gradual move to politics began at age 40. I have always been fascinated with what makes people and societies 'tick': how society works and how to make it work justly. I firmly believe in the importance of how individuals behave, and the choices individuals make, in order to make societal institutions work in a fairer fashion. My concern in Law and Politics is one and the same: to achieve fair and just outcomes.
You backed the Prohibited Restaurant Act in 1997 to ensure fast food franchises could not be set up on the island. What do you think is distinctive about Bermuda and why is it important to maintain its Old World image?
Bermuda has a quite unique 'feel' about it and one that we are very proud of. We have a reputation for being open and welcoming. People don't come to Bermuda for strip malls or franchise food. We have our own cultural diversity with a plethora of choices of denomination and religion. This is who we are and what we have to offer beyond magnificent sunshine, beautiful flora and pristine beaches. This package makes Bermuda an attractive tourist destination as well as an attractive place for guest workers in international business to live, work and play.
Why do you think it is important for Bermuda to retain its links with the UK and not become an independent country?
Interestingly, as I am mainly ethnically Portuguese, I have been one of the strongest proponents of the advantages offered by our continued strong links with the UK. We presently, in my view and that of the vast majority of Bermudians, enjoy the best of all possible worlds. We are self-governing but at the same time enjoy the support and advice of the UK. This appeals not only to most Bermudians, but also to our business partners in the international and insurance sectors.
What are your hopes for the future of Bermuda?
I hope that in the future all Bermudian children, including my own four, can enjoy a standard and quality of life second to non with ample opportunity for all to have fulfilling and rewarding lives.

By Lenie Lectura – November 5, 2018
from Business Mirror
THE group of Manuel V. Pangilinan is interested to take a look at the 4×135-megawatt coal-fired power plants in Mindanao that AC Energy Inc. has put on the auction block.
"We heard about that. We're trying to get data. What I am told, it is a coal project. It seems to be almost finished so it's ready for operation. So, it looks interesting because we don't have to wait for all sorts of approval, will probably take a look at it," said Pangilinan, chairman of the Manila Electric Co. Meralco PowerGen Corp. is the power-generation arm of Meralco.
After AboitizPower sealed an agreement with AC Energy in September for the purchase of a stake in the latter's thermal business, AA Thermal Inc., valued at $579.2 million, the power arm of conglomerate Ayala Corp., announced it was selling the rest of its thermal portfolio, which includes the GN Power Kauswagan plant.
Pangilinan said nothing has been decided on yet.
"There's no commitment at this stage. We're looking. It looks attractive because the plants are almost done, I was told. It appears to be super critical plant. I will take a serious look at it," the Meralco official said.
The power facility, the Meralco official said, would boost the power capacity in Mindanao, which still lacks supply, contrary to what others observed that there is oversupply of power in Mindanao.
"It doesn't seem that way from the ground. My impression is that it continues to suffer from brownouts. So, we will take a look at it," Pangilinan commented. Should Pangilinan's group decide to push through with its interest in AC Energy's GN Power Kauswagan plant, this will most likely cement its power-generation portfolio fortress across grids.
"We have one power plant operating in Sarangani. We have a 50:50 share there. I think there's a second plant being built. There's a third plant supposed to be built in Zamboanga Cty, depending on distribution with the Zamboanga City Electric Cooperative," he said.
Global Business Power Corp. (GBP), which is controlled by Pangilinan's Metro Pacific Investments Corp. (MPIC), took in a 50- percent stake in Alsons Consolidated Resources, Inc. (ACR).
GBP's power projects are situated in the Visayas while the Alcantara-led ACR is dominant in Mindanao. Meralco PowerGen Corp., the power generation arm of Meralco, is pursuing a number of power projects in Luzon.
ACR chairman Tomas I. Alcantara had said the deal would "combine GBP's technical competencies and strengths in the Visayas with ACR's long years of experience in Mindanao as the island's first independent power producer."
He added "this partnership will greatly benefit power consumers particularly in light of the planned interconnection of the Mindanao and Visayas grids, which we strongly support."
Pangilinan had commeted before that GBP would be able to gain leverage on Alsons' "proven, long standing and successful track record in owning and operating power plants in Mindanao."
"This strategic acquisition is in line with MPIC's commitment to further bolster our infrastructure investments in all parts of the Philippines," Pangilinan said.

The Cancer Association of South Africa (CANSA) has declared "Movember" the month to challenge all South African men to grow their moustaches and help change the face of men's health.
Co-founder of the Movember, Justin Coghlan, points out that, "The aim of Movember is to raise awareness about men's health issues, and the idea has already generated interest from South African men ready to donate their faces and time."
Movember is an internationally acclaimed charity initiative that encourages men or women to raise money for CANSA, and gives men the chance to boost awareness by visibly displaying the moustaches on their faces.

Executive Summary
On Jan. 27, the US government issued an executive order banning citizens of Iran, Iraq, Libya, Somalia, Sudan, and Yemen from entering the US for at least 90 days; all Syrian citizens are barred until further notice. The order also suspends the US Refugee Admissions Program (USRAP) for 120 days.
President Donald Trump promised to place restrictions on immigration and refugee policies during his 2016 campaign; the executive order is officially designed to provide a window of opportunity for the government to strengthen its visa issuance procedures and to deter possible entry of militants planning acts of terrorism.
An apparent lack of coordination between the Trump Administration, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), and US Customs and Border Protection (CBP) resulted in confusion over how to enforce the executive order. DHS has since provided limited clarification on the travel ban, and further alteration - or expansion - of the executive order remains possible over the next 90 days.
Key Judgments:
- DHS officials have stated that lawful permanent US residents (green card holders) will not be prevented from traveling to the US, but these travelers could still face additional security checks and processing delays at airports.
- Travelers from the blacklisted countries with visas who are currently in the US may not be able to return if they choose to leave.
- The Trump Administration has stated that more countries could be added to the travel ban via a presidential proclamation.
- Reciprocal travel restrictions are possible for US citizens traveling to the blacklisted countries.
Details of Executive Order
Initial interpretations of the order at the level of enforcement caused confusion regarding the status of green card holders, as well as those who were in transit when the order was signed. Individuals from the restricted countries with visas and green cards were initially detained at airports across the US; on Jan. 28, the US District Court for the Eastern District of New York issued a temporary stay to clear recent arrivals who had been detained and allowed those already in transit to be permitted entry.
DHS Secretary John Kelly issued a statement on Jan. 29 that individuals abroad with permanent US residency status will not be prevented from traveling to the US. Kelly's statement deemed the "entry of lawful permanent residents to be in the national interest." Despite this, DHS forewarned that green card holders from the seven countries could still face additional security checks and processing delays at airports as they work to prevent threats to public safety.
CBP officials reportedly advised the International Air and Transport Association (IATA) that lawful permanent residents were outside the scope of the executive order and should be allowed to travel; IATA subsequently provided this guidance to airlines.
US officials have stated that travelers to the seven countries will not automatically be blocked, but will face much more intense screening. Border agents have been given "discretionary authority" to detain and question travelers from certain countries that are perceived to present a higher threat; it remains unclear what countries might fall into this category.
The White House stated that additional countries may be added to the executive order, but no details were given as to which countries might be added or when, and it is unlikely that any forewarning will be provided.
Reciprocal Actions
On Jan. 30, Iraqi lawmakers voted to approve a ban on US citizens, while calling on Trump to rescind the executive order. Details of the pending legislation have not been made public and have yet to be adopted. If Baghdad approves the measure, it will likely not have a direct impact on US military personnel or ranking diplomatic officials traveling to Iraq. It could, however, affect US embassy and consulate support staff, civilian security personnel, business travelers, oil and gas contractors, humanitarian aid workers, and journalists. Similar actions are possible from other countries on the visa ban list.
- Organizations should consult with legal counsel regarding the potential impact on traveling employees.
- Citizens of Iran, Iraq, Libya, Somalia, Sudan, Syria, or Yemen currently in the US should not depart if planning to return within the next 90 days.
- If abroad, citizens of the impacted countries should consult with the local US diplomatic mission before attempting travel to the US for the next 90 days.
- Travelers to the US arriving from the impacted countries should prepare for increased scrutiny at US entry points for the foreseeable future.
It is unlikely that the Trump Administration will lift the ban in light of ongoing protests and political opposition to the executive order; such criticism of the policy is likely to continue for several days or weeks. The Trump Administration, DHS, and CBP will likely provide further clarification of the order, particularly with respect to its impact on US permanent residents and dual citizens.

Your $25 will pay for food. Rainer thanks you!
Happy Monday to you all! We are giddy to share that RAINER got adopted in October 2013! Rainer's new dad is retired, and Rainer will be a constant companion on roadtrips, hikes, outings and watching TV. Rainer also had to meet his two new besties, another male gsd and a darling female cattle dog mix, with whom he will share much of his time. We know Rainer and Mitch will have a great life together!Rainer is about 2.5 years old. He came to us as an owner surrender from a family who really loved him.
Rainer is good with people; sometimes a bit aloof, but this happy guy likes his large blocky head rubbed. He can be a bit dominant when initially meeting some males, but can also co-exist nicely with them. He has good energy - a dog that loves long, energetic walks. His body is strong and would likely be a good jogging partner and/or hiking buddy. Rainer will chase critters, and he is not an off-leash kind of dog.
Rainer is house trained and crate trained. He has nice manners and does not jump on people.
Because Rainer is intelligent and did not have a strong leader in his life until recently, we will not allow him to go to a family with children. His owner will need to be a strong leader, who can demonstrate the ability to keep him engaged to do what is asked of him. Like many german shepherds, he will rule the roost if allowed to do so.
Rainer is in the east bay in a foster home with several other german shepherds. He is a level 3 dog.

Beginner Skiing Tips
Never skied but fancy giving it a go? Want to learn before you hit the mountains so you can enjoy the slopes more? Well, you've come to the right place. With our dedicated gentle beginners' slope and easy to ride travelator, Chill Factore is the best place to learn to ski.
Our fully qualified instructors are experts at teaching beginner skiers and will give you all the help you need to get you skiing confidently down the slopes.
Learning to ski does take time and patience. Our taster ski sessions are a great way to dip your toe into the water, but if you are going to learn you need to put a few hours in on the slopes to really get to grips with it. Our beginner ski lessons can be booked from anything from a day lesson to a 3 week course.
Top 6 Skiing Tips for Beginners
1. Style for the Slopes
Before you even step through the doors of Chill Factore, we've got six essential skiing tips for beginners to get you started! First things first, you are going to need the right clothes. Nothing ruins a ski lesson like being cold or uncomfortable. You can rent some of our outer clothing from us – warm, waterproof trousers and jacket – but you need to consider what to wear underneath.
Arms and legs must be fully covered and you must wear gloves. Layers are the key to keeping warm and not overheating – you can always take layers off if you get too warm. Be sure to wear comfortable clothes that don't itch or rub. It's a good investment to get some good ski socks as these are the comfiest things to wear under ski boots as well as some ski gloves to protect your hands and keep them warm. You can buy both these at the Chill Factore shops if you don't already have them. We'd also strongly recommend wearing a helmet whatever you ability, which is why we provide them completely free of charge.
2. Get the Gear
The price of your lesson includes your skis, boots and poles so there is no extra cost involved in using our ski equipment. For getting your equipment matched to your weight, height and ability – all very important factors when setting the release mechanism that allows your foot to come out of the ski if you fall - we have a brilliant machine which takes into account all those factors and matches you perfectly to the equipment you will need. Handing over the receipt from this machine means our staff will know exactly what to give you and what settings they will need to set your equipment to. Once they have you all dressed and kitted out, it's off out to the slopes for your lesson.
3. Get Instruction
Skiing isn't one of those things you can pick up on your own nor is it very conducive to a healthy relationship to get your friends or family to teach you. The help of a fully qualified, experienced instructor can easily mean the difference between picking it up fast and loving it, or declaring you are never going anywhere near snow again in this life time.
4. Get Fit
Snow sports are hard work on the legs and it's much easier to learn if your leg muscles are up to the challenge and you are fit and flexible enough to get up off the floor when you have a fall.
5. Watch Videos
Another extremely important skiing tip for beginners is, if there's something you just can't get, a certain thing you just don't understand, watching other people doing it right can make things all click into place. Watch videos of people skiing well and take notice of their body position, posture and movements.
6. Practice
The videos are all well and good but you're not going to learn it by osmosis. You need to get yourself on skis as often as you can and keep going at it until you get it.
Book a Beginner Lesson today to see just how much fun skiing can be! We'll see you on the slopes.

Generation Pop
Recently the 3Sat-Channel aired a rerun of the 2004 WDR production "Generation Pop" where "ordinary" Germans born in the early 1960s talked about being young in the 1970s and 1980s. The first part of this 4 part series included an interview with Don and Dave as well as some short clips from different TV-appearances of the original Slade.
The interview had Dave telling how important the clothes and the shoes were to the band and that because of the exploration of space he invented the silver look. With that and the big shoes the guys looked like men walking on the moon, he said.
Don talked about the phonetic spelling of the song titles and how that caused the band a lot of trouble with the educational authorities in England. He added that a few years later they started using phonetic spelling in schools.
Probably the funniest thing in the series was a woman admitting that as a young teenager she didn't understand English. When "Cum On Feel The Noize" was a hit she therefore got out the dictionary to look up the word "cum".
The running time of the whole series was 3 hours, but only 5-10 minutes were Slade-related. Well, at least the theme of the series was "Lock Up Your Daughters"!

Meander down an obscure laneway in Central's Lan Kwai Fong district and you'll stumble upon lively Mexican cantina, Brickhouse. The blink-and-you'll-miss-it eatery has been a rousing success since opening in 2012, slinging authentic south-of-the-border street food into the early hours of the night. While Brickhouse may take awhile to locate, once you've made your way into this hip, open-air venue where the smell of sizzling meat and mole fills the air, you'll feel right at home
One of the best-loved restaurants from homegrown hospitality group Maximal Concepts, Brickhouse is the pioneering crusader for bringing the authentic street flavours of Mexico to Hong Kong. The bustling taqueria comes alive at night, when candlelight flickers against exposed red brick walls splashed with colourful graffiti art from local artists. Each month the art changes through Brickhouse's Artist of the Month initiative, with prior collaborations including Mark Goss, Tentakle, Jay Stern, Rockwell and 4Get.
Against this backdrop, a hip-hop playlist sets the soundtrack and delighted patrons pour onto the outdoor terrace, where salvaged oil cans function as bar tables. On every table sits colourful glass tumblers boasting an array of agave-based cocktails — your first order of business to get the night off to a flying start.
The original drinks pay homage to underrated Mexican spirits: try the Rojo Lena, with its blend of mezcal, Lillet Blanc, strawberry, absinthe and pink peppercorn leaving a slight buzz on the lips; the Sal Gringo which mixes bourbon with Mexican berries, lime and cilantro; or the Mole Old Fashioned, a riff on a classic with mole-washed Añejo tequila tempered with maple syrup.
Whet the palate with an order of the Mexican-style street corn to start: sweet corn-on-the-cob halves are rolled in a snowfall of salty Parmesan cheese, with tangy sour cream and a fiery vein of hot sauce to dial up the heat. Contrast this with the shockingly bright ceviches, from hamachi marinated in a spiced jalapeno vinaigrette to Peruvian-style tuna in a yuzu-lime dressing.
For tacos, it's wise to go straight for the sampler, which lets you taste all five varieties. Tender and yielding, the tortillas are pressed fresh on the comal just before serving, lending a sturdy base to fillings of beef cheek, fish, pork belly, prawns and marinated chicken. The "Wagyu Lookin' At" features juicy Wagyu beef cheek marinated in adobo with spicy sour cream; while the "Piggie Smalls" is a mouthwatering bite of slow-cooked achiote pork belly, roasted pineapple and bacon aioli complemented by a sweet and tangy salsa de piña picante.
There's no strict etiquette that needs to be followed at Brickhouse, and whether you want to end your night gracefully with a sip of creamy horchata or knock back a few shots of tequila before stumbling out the door, the night is yours to decide. Unpretentious yet decidedly edgy and cool, Brickhouse seems to live by one purpose: to give Mexican food its much-deserved spot in Hong Kong's culinary limelight. For those for which a regular taco fix is a must, Brickhouse is a bona fide south-of-the-border saviour.

WASHINGTON – The United States branded China an authoritarian human rights abuser Tuesday, citing alleged torture, state control of basic aspects of daily life, tight controls on religion and harassment of foreign charities.
China, host of the summer Olympics, has rampant and chronic human rights problems despite rapid economic growth that has transformed large parts of Chinese society, the State Department said in its annual accounting of human rights practices around the world.
The world's most populous nation, China is an increasingly important U.S. trade partner and a chief competitor with the United States for energy and shrinking natural resources. It is the object of broad U.S. economic and diplomatic outreach, with mixed results.

Mini Maestro
Posted July 27, 2010on:
This past weekend Niko showed an interest in taking up piano by tickling the ivory every chance he got. Do we have a mini-Bach in the making? Judging from the sounds he pounded out on the keys, probably not. But did he have fun playing this pint sized piano? You betcha.
I've written before about my take on noisy toys, and have taken the stance that they're something to look forward to when we go to friends' houses. It's always interesting to see the collection of toys each little person has at their own house. I mean all the collections are different and it is something for the Little N Man to anticipate on his play dates. So yes, Niko had a ball playing on Ruby's red piano. But are we going to get one for him? I don't think so.
PS – Note the little pink cell phone by Niko's knee, which is in fact one of the only "noisy" toys we've ever bought for him. I guess he doesn't want to miss any important calls, so he keeps it close.
Strollin' Big Boy Style
Posted April 6, 2010on:
Niko: I'm a big boy in a big boy stroller. 🙂
This was Niko's first time enjoying the view from his stroller as he was meant to: sitting up and looking forward (despite the fact that his straps are a little loose). Up until now he's been cruising in his car seat: looking skyward with the seat clipped into the stroller. But at six months he seems ready for the new view and this easy access to his toys!
Niko is now learning or doing something new everyday. Among other "milestones", shrieking seems to tickle his fancy and reigns high at the top of his daily to-do list.
Mommy: What a beautiful voice you have Niko!
Babbling Baby does Gymnastics
Posted March 23, 2010on:
Niko has been getting really close to rolling over, and the past couple of days have been the closest. He has a play mat with dangling toys and he likes to lie on it and swing at the toys or pull them or bite them or whatever it is he feels like doing in the moment. Anyway, last night, he was having a great time just rolling from side to side, while babbling and shrieking out in glee, while swinging/pulling/biting on the dangling toys.
Actually he became quite mobile in his antics and ended up completely off the mat just lying on the hardwood floor. Not to worry, we didn't let him lie there for too long, just long enough to get a few pics of his gymnastics. Then we moved him back on the mat and the mat further onto the rug. We just wonder when these side turns will turn into complete rollovers? Looks like it could be sooner than later.
Note: Check out a short video of Niko babbling away while doing his exercises, by clicking here.
Exersauce the Days Away
Posted January 16, 2010on:
Yesterday Niko was invited out on a play date to Baby Emilia's house, where he was surrounded by four lovely ladies: three other babies and one toddler. When he got there he was happy to see so many new and exciting toys and especially happy to discover the amazing exersaucer! So much so that when we got home and told Daddy about it, he ran out and bought one for Niko! Now Niko can happily "exersauce" the days away, bouncing about while discovering all the fun toys that are right at his fingertips. I think Dziadzio put it well when he first saw Niko's new toy: "Oh my, what a stuff! In my age we got a little spade and a little pail and GO! That's it."
And as always there are things that we as new parents learn as we go along: playing in the exersaucer was no exception. Parent lesson learned post exersaucer purchase? Don't put him in it right after eating, as the follow up was A LOT of spit up! Oh, well, he was entitled seeing as it is was his four month birthday! xx Niko, we are so happy that you have joined our family!
Note: Pictures #1) Niko and gal pals Blair, Emilia and Nola. #2) Daddy gave this one the title: Just Another Day at the Office.

Ross Carbery
The exact date of its foundation is not ascertained, nor is it known whether the monastery was of the Augustine or Benedictine order, though at one time it belonged to the latter, and was subject to the celebrated Benedictine abbey of St. James without the walls of the city of Wurtzburgh, in Germany. A town gradually rose around the monastery, which Hanmer, in his Chronicle of Ireland, describes as a walled city, and which subsequently became the seat of a diocese; but in the wars of the McCarties, O'Driscols, and other Irish septs, the walls were thrown down, and a great part of the town was destroyed. At the time of the English invasion the place was much decayed; all the lands, except such as belonged to the bishop, were granted to Fitz-Stephen, by whom they were afterwards assigned to Adam de Roches. King John, on petition of the Bishop, granted the inhabitants of "Ross Lehir" a charter of incorporation, with very ample privileges; but no particulars of its municipal government are recorded. The castle, which was in the possession of the insurgents early in.
the parliamentary war, was taken from them by Col. Myn, in 1643, but was finally surrendered to the parliamentary forces in 1652. In the war of the Revolution it was garrisoned by the Irish forces of Jas. II., commanded by Gen. McCarty, and was reconnoitred by a detachment of English troops, who considering its reduction impracticable, made themselves masters of a neighbouring fort and proceeded to Tralee.
The town, which is wholly within the Western Division of East Carbery, is situated on the southern coast, at the head of an extensive creek called Ross harbour, and occupies the summit of a gentle eminence; it consists principally of a square and four small streets, containing 282 nouses, mostly of indifferent appearance, and retains but few vestiges of its ancient importance. The manufacture of coarse linen was formerly carried on to a very considerable extent, but has latterly greatly diminished, and the inhabitants are chiefly employed in agriculture and in fishing. Near the town are the extensive flour-mills of Mr. Lloyd, in which more than 5000 barrels of fine flour are annually made. The harbour, situated about half a mile to the west of Dundedy Head, occasionally affords shelter to small vessels, but only in moderate weather; the entrance is nearly dry at low water, and at high water it is rocky and dangerous, especially when the wind is from the sea. On the bar are ten feet at high water of spring, and eight feet at neap, tides. The harbour itself is almost useless from a ridge of sand hills which has accumulated nearly to the height of 12 feet, and extends across the entrance, leaving only a channel of a few yards in breadth on the west side, through which the tide rushes with great rapidity.
The inner bay, which is more than a mile in length and about half a mile broad, is, on the receding of the tide, a dry firm sand, and might be reclaimed at a moderate expense. A new line of road has been carried across the bay by a raised causeway, 400 yards long, and connected with the mainland by a bridge at its western extremity. The bay is celebrated for the great numbers of silver eels which are taken in it during the summer months. The market is on Wednesday, but is indifferently supplied; and fairs are held on Aug. 26th, and the 19th of Sept. and Dec. The market-house is an old building in the centre of the square. A constabulary police force is stationed here, and at Milk Cove is a coast-guard station, which is one of the three that constitute the district of Skibbereen.
Petty sessions are held every Wednesday, and a court for the manor of Ross every three weeks, at which debts not exceeding 40s. are recoverable. The court-house is a very neat building; adjoining it is the police barrack.
The SEE of Ross had its origin in the foundation of the monastery by St. Faughnan or Faehnan, surnamed Mongach or "the hairy," the church of which, according to the best authorities, became the cathedral church of the diocese in the 6th century, and its founder the first bishop. St. Fachnan was succeeded by St. Finchad, but neither of him nor of his successors, with the exception of Dongal Mac Folact, whom Flaherty makes the 27th Bishop of Ross, and with his predecessors all of the same house or sept, is any thing recorded prior to the arrival of the English. Since that period there has been, with little intermission, a regular succession of bishops, of whom the first, Daniel, was consecrated by authority of Pope Celestine at Rome, and succeeded to the prelacy in 1197. But having obtained the see by forged letters alleged to have been from the Irish bishops, an enquiry was instituted, and he was deprived by Pope Innocent III., by whose order Florence, who had been canonically elected, was confirmed by apostolic authority in 1210. During the prelacy of Matthew O'Fin, who presided over the see from 1310 till 1330, several of its possessions, which had been unjustly usurped by Thomas Barret and Philip de Carew, were recovered by default; but the crown thinking the recovery had been made by collusion, to avoid the statute of Mortmain, ordered an inquest to be held, which decided in favour of the bishop. In 1377 the see was vacant, and the custos was fined 100 marks for not appearing upon summons at the parliament held at Castledermot.
Thomas O'Herlihy, who succeeded in 1563, assisted, with Donat, Bishop of Raphoe, and Eugene, Bishop of Achonry, at the council of Trent in that year.
He was succeeded by William Lyon, during whose prelacy the see was united by Queen Elizabeth to that of Cork, with which it has ever since continued; and with which, under the provisions of the Church Temporalities act, it became, on the death of Dr. Brinkley, in Sept.
1835, united to the see of Cloyne, now the diocese of Cloyne, Cork, and Ross, and the temporalities became vested in the Ecclesiastical Commissioners. It is one of the eleven dioceses that constitute the ecclesiastical province of Cashel, and is wholly within the county of Cork, comprising an estimated superficies of 124,000 square acres. The possessions of the see comprise 8179 statute acres of profitable land; and the gross annual revenue of the bishop, on an average of three years ending Dec. 31st, 1831, amounted to £1715.17. 9¼.
The chapter consists of a dean, precentor, chancellor, treasurer, archdeacon, and the prebendaries of Timoleague, Inchydony, Curragrainemore, Donoughmore, and Templebryan; there is also one vicar choral. The income of the deanery amounts to £91 per ann., arising from the ploughland of Ardagh, containing 238 acres; houses and gardens in the town of Rosscarbery, and the rectorial tithes of the parish of Desert; that of the precentorship amounts to £205, arising from the rent of 237 acres of land in the parish of Rosscarbery; that of the chancellorship to £11. 1. 6½., arising from the rent of the lands of Gahaniffmore, in the parish of Rathbarry, containing 178 acres; and that of the treasurership to £63, arising from the ploughland of Tunneel, in the parish of Rosscarbery, containing 210½ acres. The consistorial court is held at Cork. The total number of parishes in the diocese is 33, comprised within 30 benefices, of which 8 are unions of two or more parishes, and 25 single parishes; of these, two are in the patronage of the Crown, one in the alternate patronage of the Crown and the Bishop, 23 in the patronage of the Bishop, one in that of the Dean, and the remainder in lay patronage. The total number of churches is 18; a grant has been obtained for building a church at Templecoma; and there are nine school-rooms or other houses licensed by the bishop, in which divine service is performed, and 11 glebe-houses. The cathedral church, which from time immemorial has been also used as the parish church, was rebuilt in 1612: it was a handsome structure, in the later English style, with a lofty square tower, which in 1806 was surmounted with an octagonal spire of hewn limestone, at an expense of £964; the church is now being rebuilt on an enlarged scale by the addition of a south transept, which will render it perfectly cruciform. The entrance on the south is by a fine Norman arch; and above the western door is a lofty window of three lights, enriched with tracery. The nave is separated from the choir by a stone skreen; the choir has a large and handsome window at the east end; the north and south aisles are lighted with square-headed windows enriched with tracery; and the whole will bear the character of uniformity.
The economy fund of the cathedral amounts to £558. 15. 5½. per ann., arising from the tithes of the parishes of Rosscarbery, Kilkerranmore, Rathbarry, Kilfaughnabeg, and Kilmacabea.
In the R. C. divisions the diocese is united with that of Cloyne, forming the bishoprick of Cloyne and Ross; the latter differs in extent from the Protestant diocese, by excluding the barony of Bere, which forms part of the R. C. diocese of Kerry. It comprises 12 parochial benefices, or unions, and. contains 21 chapels, which are served by 24 clergymen, of whom, including the bishop, 13 are parish priests and 11 coadjutors or curates.
The parish comprises 12,535 statute acres, of which 1288 are tithe-free; about three-fourths of the land are arable, and the remainder, with the exception of a portion of bog and waste, is in pasture. The surface is very uneven, rising in some parts into hills of considerable elevation: the soil, though light, is fertile; but, except on the lands of Mr. Townsend and other resident gentlemen who have adopted every improvement in husbandry and the use of the best farming implements, the system of agriculture is in a very backward state: much of the land is cultivated by the spade, and manure is carried to the field on the backs of horses. Several large slate quarries have been opened, of which some produce slate of very superior quality; and copper ore and manganese abound in almost every part, but no efficient means are employed to work them to advantage. The principal seats are Cahirmore, the residence of T. Hungerford, Esq.; Derry, of the Rev. H. Townsend; Castle Downeen, of R. Smith, Esq.; Milleen, of the Rev. W. Jennings; Millfield, of Lieut. Lloyd, R.N.; Farley Cottage, of T. Hungerford, Esq.; and The Hill, of Capt. W. Starkie. The living is a rectory, in the diocese of Ross, partly appropriate to the vicar choral, and partly to the dean and chapter, in trust for the economy fund of the cathedral: the tithes amount to £776. 19. 4., of which £434. 0. 11. is payable to the vicar choral, and £342. 18. 5. to the dean and chapter. In the R. C. divisions the parish is the head of a union or district, comprising also part of the parishes of Kilfaughnabeg and Kilkerranmore, and containing two chapels, one at Ardagh, near the town, a handsome edifice, erected in 1820 at the head of the bay, on a site surrounded by rocks and plantations; and the other at Lissavord, three miles distant.
About 130 children are taught in five public schools, of which the parochial male school is supported by the dean and chapter and the vicar choral; the parochial female school-house was built by Lord Carbery; and an infants' school is supported by Miss Townsend.
There are also four private schools, in which are about 120 children; and two Sunday schools. The Rev. S.
Jervois, in 1786, bequeathed £400, the interest of which is annually divided among the Protestant poor, and £10 annually, which is paid as apprentice fees with the most deserving boy and girl in the Sunday school. The Rev.
T. Hoare, the present vicar choral, has also given by deed £500, the interest of which is annually divided among the most necessitous poor of the parish. On an island which was formerly joined to the mainland are the ruins of Downeen castle; and at Ballyvoureen are the remains of an ancient house in the Elizabethan style, formerly the residence of the Coppinger family.
At Temple Faughnan, about a mile and a half from the town, are the ruins of a house erected by the Knights Templars in 1301, and modernised in 1712. Adjoining the town are the remains of the abbey founded by St.
Faughnan: the side walls of the choir of the church, rudely built of unhewn stone, are still standing; on the south side are the remains of a circular arch, and adjoining the ruin is the tomb of the Rev. J. Power, who died in 1831: it is much resorted to by pilgrims.
In the south wall of the cathedral is an old carved head, said to be that of St. Faughnan. Banduff castle, built by the O'Donovans, and afterwards called Castle Salem, was an extensive building with a walled park and more than 300 acres of oak wood, all now destroyed. In the grounds of Tinneel are the remains of a cromlech. The Rev, Horace Townsend, author of the Statistical Survey of the county of Cork, is resident at Deny, in this parish.
