THE first public duty of incoming Federal Immigration and Citizenship Minister Senator Chris Evans should be a citizenship ceremony in Albany.
The new Australians might be a bit slippery to hold, but that shouldn't be a problem.
By Senator Evans' side will be another trusty West Australian in Foreign Affairs Minister Stephen Smith, with local Albany boy Premier Alan Carpenter ready to lend a hand.
Between the three of them, they will be able to occupy a humpback whale long enough to bestow citizenship rights on this beautiful mammal.
After Kyoto, Prime Minister Kevin Rudd's next big foreign affairs statement must be that from now on, any whale – be it humpback, minke or fin – that joyfully swims into the Southern Ocean is to be regarded as an honorary Australian citizen with all rights and protections applicable to them.
Harpoon a whale and you're harpooning an Aussie!
This will send a clear message to countries such as Japan and Norway as to how we feel about their murderous "scientific research" expeditions.
Former prime minister John Howard and former attorney-general Philip Ruddock would applaud the legal ingeniousness of classifying whales as Australian citizens.
These two blokes in their political prime could make the definitions of what it meant to be "Australian" as rubbery as a Dunlop Volley shoe.
Depending on political expediency, national borders could expand and contract at will.
And as the bygone Battler from Bennelong so rightly said: "We will decide who comes here and under what circumstances."
Today, our new Australians come by sea, singing joyfully as they breach the waters off our coast.
My fading memory of school biology reminds me that whales are not fish, but mammals. Whales are one of us. We have much in common.
Down in Nannup, the CD collection Love Songs of the Humpback Whale and Ride the Sperm Whale Baby! are the biggest-selling albums this Christmas!
How can you listen to these beautiful mammals sing in underwater harmony and then stroll into the kitchen and have the musicians served up on a plate as sushi with green wasabe paste on the side?
Imagine if last week in Kings Park we had gratuitously harpooned Crosby, Stills and Nash after they so movingly sang to us? (OK, admittedly Steven Stills and David Crosby have blown out to the size of a humpback whale, but that's no excuse to kill them.)
Yes, there are many things I like about the Japanese. They make great-tasting beer and there are days when I could kill for a miso-ramen noodle soup.
This week, my book club has been discussing Norwegian Wood, by Japanese writer Haruki Murakami. A great read.
However, the slaughter of whales cannot be condoned under the pretext of some dodgy historical or cultural tradition.
New Minister of Defence Joel Fitzgibbon must immediately direct our naval destroyers into the southern oceans to harass and intimidate the Japanese whaling fleet.
We need an excuse to blow these vessels of death out of the water.
Give the Japanese crew time to disembark, and then let these blood-soaked, floating abattoirs sink like a luxury cruise ship into the Antarctic Ocean.
The Japanese Government just doesn't "get it" how strongly we feel about this issue.
Maybe, it will understand a national boycott of its manufacturing goods.
Or perhaps we can remove all the Japanese street signs from Queensland's Gold Coast so the tourists get lost on their way back to the hotel after a big night on their duty-free sake.
We need more action from our politicians to save the lives of these magnificent creatures than woozy diplomatic letters and sycophantic phone calls to Tokyo.

Many animals struggle to cope with fireworks; lots of humans have a hard time with them too. The RSPCA estimates that 45% of dogs show signs of being afraid of fireworks when they hear them. Firework phobia is a real thing but it’s also something that pet owners can help their pets cope with a lot more successfully. Extreme fears need professional treatment. If you know your pet suffers badly with firework phobia your vet may be able to refer you to an animal behaviourist. However, there are a few things you can do to help your pets cope with firework season.
7 Tips to Keep Cats and Dogs Calm and Safe
1.Expose your pet to scary sounds in a safe environment. Visit the Dogs Trust website and download their free sound based treatment program. Click the link and follow the instructions. The programmes include fireworks, thunder, traffic and domestic noises.
2.Make sure there are plenty of safe hiding spots around the room for your pets to retreat to. You could bring in some cardboard boxes, open cupboards or use a dog crate. Cover them with blankets and make them really cosy inside.
3.Walk your dog during the day and avoid going out once the sun sets. Get the cats inside around dusk too and keep them in for the night.
4.Close your curtains and have the television on slightly louder than normal, or play music. This can help to muffle the loud sounds and flashing lights from outside.
5.Pay attention to your pets. Keep them close to you if you think they gain comfort from your company, or give them space.
6.Make sure your pets are microchipped and the data is up to date in case they escape and runaway.
7.You can get pheromone diffusers for cats and for dogs. Speak to your vet about using these. Your vet may also be able to prescribe medication for fearful pets.
Smaller pets such as rabbits and birds may also experience fear. Help them cope by covering their hutches and aviaries with blankets – allowing for ventilation.

A heated late-night Monopoly game resulted in two people being sent to the hospital after being cut by a razor-sharp Japanese katana sword. Just the latest incident over the past 88 years of Monopoly game-fueled violence.
The board game Monopoly is widely considered to be the most divisive game around and this is true for several reasons that we can dive into quickly.
First and foremost, Monopoly is the third most popular board game in history with over 275 million units sold worldwide since it was created in 1935. With hundreds of millions of people playing Monopoly’s various iterations, arguments and fights are inevitable.
The nature of the Monopoly is the second leading reason that it causes more fights than any other board game. The goal is to accumulate as much wealth and property as possible and steamroll your opponents which causes tensions to run high.
There was even a survey last Summer that found 20% of people get into fights with family when playing the Monopoly game.
But sending two people to the hospital with a Japanese katana sword over a heated game of Monopoly is on a whole different level than most could ever imagine.
A group of 4 people were playing the Monopoly game in Brussels, Belgium (1 man, 3 women). It was late at night and they were playing outside, according to La Libre.
When the game got too loud a neighbor came out to complain and brought a stick to swing at the rowdy Monopoly players. According to the New York Post, things then escalated severely when the stick-swinging neighbor’s son emerged with a Japanese katana sword.
La Libre has a breakdown of what happened next:
— The son walked out with a katana sword in its sheath/holster.
— One of the Monopoly game players, possibly homeless, attempted to grab the katana sword and in doing so removed it from its holster so the blade was unsheathed.
— The son tried to grab his katana sword back which led to them coming ‘to blow’ and ’caused serious injuries to the two individuals.’
— The person who unsheathed the sword and the son were both cut deeply by the razor-sharp katana sword and were taken to the hospital where both were arrested.
The major takeaways here are you should NEVER take Monopoly too seriously. If someone in your family gets too heated playing board games then find an excuse to leave before they snap.
You should also be considerate of your neighbors. And that’s true whether you’re outside playing a game of Monopoly at 4 in the morning or if you’re inside your house and hear a noise. Be considerate of your fellow man.
Lastly, it should go without saying but you should always leave the katana sword at home. Seriously, leave the swords at home.
Here is a tutorial on how to win at Monopoly every single time.
It has been a hot minute since I wrote about swords here on BroBible. Looking through the archives, it seems the last time I wrote about swords was in 2019 when the New York Jets DL coach was giving out swords to his best linemen as weekly awards.

Today, the parent company of PC Invasion (Enthusiast Gaming) has announced its acquisition of online publication, The Escapist. The magazine will return to its roots, so to speak, having the former editor-in-chief, Russ Pitts, back at the helm.
Escapist Magazine holds a special place in my heart as the place where I started my career in games. Enthusiast truly gets what makes game communities special and is fully invested in getting this right. The opportunity to join with Enthusiast to help bring Escapist back to its original cultural relevance is a huge opportunity not only for me and my team, but for the many fans of Escapist who have been so supportive of the brand for over 13 years” said Russ Pitts, Incoming Editor-in-Chief, Escapist.
Pitts has expressed what exactly the reinstatement entailed in a personal blog posted on Medium. He writes, “We’re leaving politics at the door.”
The founder and CEO of Enthusiast Gaming, Menashe Kestenbaum, also released a statement regarding the new addition to the growing network of sites.
“The acquisition of Escapist is instrumental as we continue to grow our network of gamers. Escapist represents long form and intellectual content generation and will be another flagship platform in our network,” said Kestenbaum.
The Escapist was founded in 2005, providing coverage to video games, movies, comics, and TV. Pitts had previously left the company, moving to Vox in order to launch Polygon. In 2017, Enthusiast Gaming also added Destructoid to its growing network portfolio.

Farming sustainability: NSYSU teams up with Laser Tek to promote organic agriculture in Kaohsiung
(Provided by Institute of Public Affairs Management) ESG (Environmental, social and corporate governance) has become a key index in the evaluation of the sustainability of corporate management. The USR project of the College of Management at NSYSU and Laser Tek Taiwan, a local enterprise, collaborated on Yuan-Pin Organic Rice Farm, located in Qishan, and organized an event “Seed Summer: One Mu of Field” to respond to social and environmental issues in agriculture, combining USR with CSR to inject corporate resources into the local environment, strengthen the enterprise social influence, and establish a model of university-enterprise cooperation to promote social responsibility.
During the event, a so-called “rice field adoption ceremony” was held to symbolize bilateral cooperation. Laser Tek presented a “check” for rice field adoption to Yuan-Pin Organic Rice, who instead handed the “Laser Tek Rice" banner with logos of both sides to Laser Tek. Chairman of Laser Tek Gary Cheng said that both parties launched the “Laser Tek Rice” collaboration for the employees, customers, suppliers, and community members in need to enjoy healthy organic rice.
Associate Dean of the College of Management Jui-Kun Kuo pointed out that “Seed Summer: One Mu of Field” is an extension of CSR and innovation of the company (which held an agriculture-themed event in Qishan in 2020), and that it was planned by the USR team of the College. It included the “adoption” of the field by the enterprise, transplanting rice seedlings, and harvesting. The company adopted the rice field to support organic farming; the farmers have guaranteed revenue by selling high-quality agricultural products to the enterprise. During the collaboration, the company and the farmers could establish a partnership by participating in the rice-growing process. Because of the COVID-19 outbreak, to comply with the epidemic prevention regulations, the USR team at the College rescheduled the rice transplanting event to July and invited Laser Tek Chairman Gary Cheng and manager Victor Chang to participate. Their work in the field was a demonstration of CSR actions, echoing a number of UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
Associate Dean Kuo further explained that the CSR cooperation of NSYSU and Laser Tek emphasized strengthening ties with the local community and connecting with the agricultural sector in rural areas. Laser Tek’s collaboration with Yuan-Pin Organic Rice Farm secures local organic farmers' income and supports healthy and organic agricultural production. The multi-lateral collaboration helped involve the local community and industry in Qishan and promote urban-rural exchange in Kaohsiung.
Chairman Gary Cheng said that from last year’s harvest to this year’s planting of rice seedlings is a symbol of the company's long-term commitment to CSR and continuous cooperation with local communities, as well as a hope for attracting more companies to join the environmental sustainability movement and promotion of the local development through corporate efforts. Manager of the Management Department Victor Chang mentioned that his unit is in charge of Laser Tek’s CSR work and that the events launched focused on sustainable development and continuous innovation, hoping to bring sustainability into the workplace and engaging co-workers to make CSR a part of the company’s DNA.

easyJet has launched its ‘Worldwide by easyJet’ connections product along with initial partners Norwegian and WestJet, enabling customers to buy flights with the other airlines via the low-fare carrier’s website and better facilitate the connection of its flights to long-haul routes.
The company says the booking platform opens up a new 70-million passenger market segment for the carrier, which has also brought Gatwick Airport in as a launch partner offering flights to North and South America, and the Far East. More partners and additional connections are expected to be rolled out at other European airports, it adds.
Tickets are also now being offered on behalf of partner airlines such as Loganair, says easyJet, with tickets for the latter to be available on easyJet’s website next month.
“With seats available from today, ‘Worldwide by easyJet’ enables customers to seamlessly connect their easyJet flight with partner airline flights with launch partners WestJet and Norwegian using the GatwickConnects product,” states the airline.
The company adds that it is already in advanced talks with Middle East and Far East carriers, amongst others. It specifically also plans to expand to other key easyJet airports in Europe including Milan Malpensa, Geneva, Amsterdam, Paris Charles De Gaulle and Barcelona.
The appeal to the partner airlines, says easyJet, is access to what it describes as one of the biggest travel websites in Europe with around 360 million visits in the past year.
Currently around 200,000 customers ‘self-connect’ via easyJet, booking separate easyJet flights and the GatwickConnects product themselves in three different transactions. The new connectivity has been enabled by technology partner Dohop, which has created the platform allowing easyJet’s customers to book connections and forward flights via the website.
The airline says there is a large untapped opportunity to “connect the dots” within its network, as well as strengthen the brand and network reach by aligning with high-quality international carriers. It is the first step, it adds, on the journey to providing more seamless connectivity with partners, and accelerating the shift away from traditional airline interline partnerships.
Carolyn McCall, easyJet’s CEO (pictured), said that with around 70 million passengers flying through an easyJet airport each year connecting to other mainly long-haul flights, “It is this market segment that ‘Worldwide by easyJet’ will open up for us. Because of easyJet’s strong positions at Europe’s leading airports and our customer focus, long-haul carriers have been asking to work with easyJet for some time and the new technology platform has now allowed us to do so”.
Peter Duffy, chief commercial officer (CCO) at the airline, added that the platform would enable it to profitably access a major new pool of customers without undermining the carrier’s operating model and punctuality.
Guy Stephenson, CCO at Gatwick Airport, commented: “easyJet is our biggest airline and by partnering with GatwickConnects, easyJet passengers can easily and quickly self-connect with other flights in Gatwick’s diverse network of flights including our 60 long-haul routes.”
Norwegian’s CCO, Thomas Ramdahl, said the airline was delighted to “partner with another quality low-cost airline like easyJet to offer passengers even more choice”. With Norwegian’s growing long-haul networks and easyJet’s European routes, millions more passengers would have the chance to travel to top destinations, he said.
Canadian airline WestJet’s vice-president, commercial, Ed Sims described the new booking platform as a “great fit” with its London Gatwick service, and would make it easier for its Canadian travellers to connect to Europe.

THE father of Welsh taekwondo gold medallist Jade Jones says she already has her sights set on becoming a double Olympic champion with a victory at the next Games in Rio.
As the dust settled on his daughter’s momentous victory in London’s ExCel Arena, Gary Jones insisted the combative 19-year-old will not be happy with just one taste of Olympic glory.
Mr Jones said: “She’s told me she’s going (to Rio). She’s having a couple of weeks off and then she’ll be back training and focused. Then she’s got Rio in her sights.
“She wants to keep these medals up and she reckons she will.”
Mr Jones, 40, from Flint, in North Wales, said Jade’s triumph was only now sinking in and he still felt “great” after her victory over China’s two time world champion Yuzhuo Hou.
It was Britain’s first ever gold in the martial art.
Mr Jones said: “My voice is still gone. It was just overwhelming how she did it and how she’s got so far in her career.”
He said both his close friend Graham Jones and Jade’s grandfather Martin Foulkes had a big part to play in her success by driving her to training sessions in Manchester.
“When her grandfather was in work or on different shifts, he (Graham Jones) would cover for him.”
Mr Foulkes spoke of his pride at seeing his granddaughter rise to the top of the sport he introduced her to as an eight-year-old.
The 57-year-old maintenance engineer said: “To be an Olympic champion at 19, especially in a full-contact sport like that, is a tremendous achievement.
“People don’t realise what they have to go through in any of the sports to reach that level – so it’s very satisfying.”
Mr Foulkes said he and wife Patricia, 59, made big sacrifices to give their granddaughter the chance to become a Welsh Olympic hero.
“I used to take her wherever I thought she could get the best training – so it involved a lot of travelling and a lot of expense.
“But when they put the medal around her neck on Thursday night it was worth every penny.”
Locals in Jade’s hometown of Flint itself have made sacrifices for her career, including collecting cash for overseas trips.
And Mr Foulkes said Jade is assured of a hero’s reception when she returns home.
“Flint’s mad at the moment – every time we go to the shops, people are stopping us to congratulate us and there are ‘well done’ posters all over the place.
“So when Jade comes home I don’t know what it’s going to be like – it will be mayhem I should think.”
Mr Foulkes said his granddaughter had “tried everything” before settling on taekwondo.
“We had tried athletics and swimming and we happened to go to the local leisure centre and there was a taekwondo class on.
“I said, ‘Come on, we’ll have a look in here’. She watched it and said, ‘Yes I’d like to have a go’, and it’s just gone on from there.”
Jade’s mother Jayne Ferguson, 40, said she was still on ‘cloud nine’ yesterday over the performance that made her daughter the youngest member of Team GB to win gold.
“It was unbelievable – just amazing. The atmosphere was electric and she was brilliant. You can’t relax until the bell goes because anything can happen in taekwondo. That’s why it’s so nerve-racking.”

After #artbookfriday had to be left out because I was at the bookfair in Frankfurt I am happy to be back with an awesome new title for you. It’s the reason I had my first real bookfair moment. Normally the bookfair is only work for me and I don’t have the time to visit any readings or events during the day but this year I was lucky. When I went to get some lunch on Thursday I met one of my favorite writers at his publisher’s booth. It was a classic coincident and I am still thrilled. So now it’s time to tell you how great his new book is 😉
First of all it’s beautiful, more beautiful than most novels. It has a full turquoise linen cover with the title imprinted and a bright red bookmark ribbon. That’s one of the reason I liked it straight away. I am a very visual person and I judge a book by its cover I have to admit.
So what’s so great about the story which is still far more important than the cover in the end. It’s all about the (fictional) young artist Gustav Glander who becomes the star of the Eat Art movement in New York in the 1990s. His culinary work and actions are spectacular productions and meet the nerve of the times, critics and collectors are full of praise for his works. But the young man from Germany feels uncomfortable with the circus we call art business. From one day to the other he disappears.
Twelve years later: a restaurant in Hamburg. The famous art critic Gerd Möninghaus sits in the dining room with his wife who writes for a women’s magazine. He sees a man at another table who seems strangely familiar to him. Could this be the famous Glander? A short time after this incident, unknown sketches of the missing artist appear in the editorial department of Möninghaus’ art magazine, so the committed journalist begins to research and the story begins. His search leads him from Hamburg to New York, to St. Moritz, Lake Constance and the Allgäu – and he makes a surprising discovery. It’s a fantastic story.
The book examines the question of the relation between food and art. It includes a perfect description of the crazy art world which is just hilarious and a must-read for everyone who loves art. Furthermore it’s a feast for food lovers. It’s also a story of love, of coming home and of freedom, to be able to reinvent yourself again and again.
I am pretty sure I will read this book again in a while and I highly recommend that you buy it 😉

One of Hirsch's problems is her adherence to a definition of racism that only people intent on defending the USSR or other culprits from the charge of racism still use. Her definition of racism is one that requires the categorization of population groups in purely biological and physical terms (Hirsch, pp. 30-36). As I have noted elsewhere modern scholars including John Rex, Kenan Malik, Saul Dubow, Etienne Balibar, Paul Gilroy, and many others reject this premise. They note that cultural traits can also be used to define racial groups. Hirsch states, "But, to call Soviet population politics 'racial' - to insist that a state sees its population through a 'racial lens' if it ascribes cultural or behavioral traits to its population groups (that is, if it stereotypes) is to obscure important differences between the Soviet and Nazi regimes and their projects." (Hirsch, p. 37). I would argue that racism is in fact the ascription of negative cultural or behavioral traits to entire populations determined to be immutable and defined by ancestry. Even more bizarre, however, is Hirsch's apparent belief that the only form of racial discrimination to exist in world history was what existed in Nazi Germany. One of her claims is that the Soviet deportation of nationalities was not racist because the Stalin regime did not seek, "to eliminate their 'genetic material' altogether" and that this distinguished it from Nazi Germany (Hirsch, p. 40). It does in fact point to a difference between Nazi and Soviet forms of racism, but it does not clear the Soviets of the charge of racism itself. Hirsch, however, is unable to conceive of racism as anything other than the Nazi policies of total extermination based upon genetics. For instance she notes that the Soviet government did not treat the Chechens in the exact same manner as the Nazis treated Jews at places like Auschwitz as evidence that Soviet policies were not racist (Hirsch, pp. 40-41). Racism does not require genocide and genocide does not require an attempt to physically exterminate all members of a group based upon their genetic material.
There are a number of different models for the construction of racial categories and many of them such as apartheid in South Africa followed a model of racializing cultural groups such as ethnicities and nationalities similar to Stalin's practice in the USSR. Hirsch continues her defense of Stalin's USSR against the charge of racist practices by noting the differences between it and Nazi Germany, never bothering to note the similarities between the USSR and places like apartheid South Africa regarding nationality policy and ethnos theory. She states, "The Soviet regime did not persecute nationalities because of suspected 'biological weaknesses' or 'deficient inner constitutions.' It did not brand particular nationalities as inferior or degenerate races." (Hirsch, p. 37). To which it should be noted that on the basis of the same type of evidence that the South Africans did not either. Instead the official discourse justifying apartheid stressed that the differences in culture, history, geography, and material levels of development between separate ethnoses required 'separate development' of these different groups.
The South African volkekundiges were among the first post-war racists to grasp that "Volk and culture functioned as a useful substitute for a biological view of race." (Dubow, p. 283). Indeed in the official racial discourse in South Africa, "the diffuse language of cultural essentialism was preferred to the crude scientific racism drawn from the vocabulary of social Darwinism." (Dubow, p. 246). But, they were far from the only ones to define racial groups in a cultural rather than biological manner. As Kenan Malik has noted, "By divesting the concept of race of its biological heritage, and conceiving it in terms of cultural inheritance ('an endlessly transferable set of beliefs and burdens'), the new discourse of race has reshaped the concept into a form usable in the post-Nazi era." (Malik, p. 187). Note that Malik's definition of the new racism is very similar to what actually existed in the USSR. This culturally based racism has the great advantage that like Hirsch with the Soviet Union it allows its defenders to deny it is racist while performing the exact same function as the old biologically based racism (Malik, pp. 186-187). In this sense the USSR was way ahead of the rest of the world with replacing the discredited notions of biology with an exclusionary and primordial definition of ethnicity.
Hirsch, however, denies that racial categories can ever be constructed along cultural rather than biological and genetic lines. She notes, "For the NKVD and the party the issue was not an individual's biological (genetic or blood) membership in one or another group, but his or her cultural heritage and possible ties to other states." (Hirsch, p. 39) She neglects to note that 'cultural heritage' often serves as the basis for racializing a group and assuming political ties to foreign states based solely upon that heritage is in fact a racist ascription. Indeed she seems completely unaware of the vast body of work by people like John Rex, Kenan Malik, Paul Gilroy, George Fredrickson, and others precisely on the point of racial formation based upon 'cultural heritage' rather than genetics.

In the Know: Thai Udon 2 opens, more local restaurants planning seconds
A few more area restaurants are doubling up this year, adding second locations.
After operating for four years in North Naples, Thai Udon Café opened its second location on Fifth Avenue South last week, while Café Luna closed its original Fifth Avenue space post-season and is opening a second location this week in North Naples.
Other local restaurants scoring with plans to add a second to their base include Brooks Gourmet Burgers & Dogs, Tacos & Tequila Cantina and New York Pizza & Pasta.
THAI UDON CAFE
The local husband-and-wife team who married Thai and Japanese cuisines at their Thai Udon Cafe have come a long way since it opened three years ago.
The first restaurant created by Khwan Sawai and Adam Satinsky in Magnolia Square at Goodlette-Frank and Pine Ridge roads is simpler and more humble and homey.
'We like that first, kind of hidden gem. It's a very central location even though it's a little hidden,' Satinsky said.
But now they have come out of hiding and stepped out onto Fifth Avenue South with a bright new offering, even adding a sushi bar and other new items to the menu.
'We want to definitely give it more of a sense of a Fifth Avenue vibe, a little more swanky feeling than the North Naples location. I think it's going to achieve that,' said Satinsky, who still has a 'day job' as principal cellist for the Naples Philharmonic.
'The color scheme is quite different. It's a totally different look, he said. 'We were kind of going for more brightness.'
After acquainting diners at the first restaurant with her unique cooking, Sawai has expanded upon the base she created, Satinski said.
'She wants to highlight what she knows and loves about her country's food. The soups are very regional and traditional dishes,' he said. 'Some of the dishes she created are possibly unique to her restaurant and nowhere else.'
Popular entrees include Three Friends Cashew Nut with sautéed shrimp, chicken, pork, vegetables and cashews with chili sauce; and seafood and soft shell crab curry sautéed with eggplant, long beans and bell pepper with green curry sauce.
New menu items include an appetizer sampler featuring a fried spring roll, dumplings and crab rangoon. A soft shell crab salad has sliced tomato, onion, celery, cucumber and chili with seasoned crab and lime dressing. A new grilled sea bass with sautéed vegetables is drizzled with homemade ginger sauce.
The grand opening celebration of the new restaurant is this Saturday, giving patrons an opportunity to sample some of the cuisine.
Thai Udon Café, 409 Fifth Ave. S., is open 11 a.m. to 10 p.m. Sundays through Thursdays; and 11 a.m. to 11 p.m. Fridays and Saturdays. For information, call 239-331-2079, or go to thaiudoncafe.com.
Café Luna is targeted to open its new second location this Thursday in the Publix-anchored Naples Walk shopping center on the southeast corner of Airport-Pulling and Vanderbilt Beach roads in North Naples.
The large space previously was home to Capers Kitchen for three seasons and Sam Snead's Tavern for more than 12 years.
'We brightened it up: New bar top, new bar stools, new carpeting,' said co-owner Ed Barsamian. 'That's a great shopping center. We are really looking forward to getting open.'
Expect the same menu as Café Luna's new location in Liberty Plaza on U.S. 41 in Naples and its longtime original that was forced to close post-season this spring because of a redevelopment project on Fifth Avenue South. Of course, Barsamian still offers 'A Veally Good Deal,' a dinner special for two with a bottle of wine for $29.99.
'We introduced a new thing on the weekend, a really rare deal: two 12-ounce cuts of prime rib served with mashed potatoes and a bottle of California cabernet for $49.99,' he said. 'That's in addition to A Veally Good Deal.'
TACOS & TEQUILA
A second location for Tacos & Tequila Cantina is nearly complete in The Pavilion shopping center in North Naples. The new restaurant is targeted to open as early as July 4.
'We're really, really, really close,' said owner Kelly Musico, who opened the first T & T three years ago off of Davis Boulevard in East Naples.
The new location next to Paradise Wine is 1,500 square feet larger than the first.
'The retail is three times the size, and this one has probably 10 more bar seats,' Musico said. 'It's the same exact layout, just a little bit bigger.'
The menu of taco varieties also is the same and an overhead door can be raised to give the restaurant an open-air feel.
NEW YORK PIZZA
New York Pizza & Pasta is busy building out its second location in Cameron Commons shopping center on the north side of Immokalee Road just east of Collier Boulevard.
The new location is now targeted to open in July, following the success of its longtime original pizzeria in Riverchase Plaza on Immokalee Road at the U.S. 41 intersection.
'I think we are going to do extremely well over there,' said General Manager James Olsen. 'I think it will be a very popular spot.'
Eighteen TVs will ring the interior, which will look similar to the recently renovated original restaurant. The new one won't have a separate room for the bar, though, which will serve wine and beer.
Expect dine-in, takeout and delivery of the same authentic homemade recipes of 'real-deal' Italian cuisine from meatballs to New York slices and thick Sicilian pizza squares.
Brooks Gourmet Burgers & Dogs announced plans last week to build on the acclaimed reputation of its first location on U.S. 41 in Naples. Brooks will move into the The Pavilion shopping center space vacated by Kitchen 845 at the end of season. A breezeway separates the unit from Skillets between anchors Paragon Pavilion theaters and LA Fitness.
Restaurant chains are seeing double, too.
■ Fuzzy's Taco Shop is opening its second location in Southwest Florida this summer in the SuperTarget center off Immokalee Road in North Naples. Its first are location opened this spring, serving Tex-Mex and Margaritas in south Fort Myers.
■ BurgerFi will give its lone area location on U.S. 41 in East Naples some company when it opens its second Collier County spot this summer in the new Creekside Corners retail center at Goodlette-Frank and Immokalee Road in North Naples.
■ Chipotle Mexican Grill has a second Naples-area location coming this fall to Naples Plaza in the former longtime location of Empire China off U.S. 41. A third is even under construction in Restaurant Row, making progress daily along Collier Boulevard near its U.S. 41 East intersection.
A couple of local restaurants are even rounding third this summer.
■ Komoon Thai Sushi Ceviche will join the new BurgerFi in the same center this summer in North Naples. It's Komoon's second Collier location, but it has another off Bonita Beach Road in Bonita Springs. The original operates in Mission Square off Pine Ridge Road.
■ Napoli on the Bay also is set to open its third spot this summer in Sugden Park Plaza on U.S. 41 East in East Naples. The longtime, family-owned local pizzeria made a name for itself near the City Dock in Crayton Cove and opened a second last year in Hitching Post Plaza, also on U.S. 41 East.


I have a 2005 Rancher 350 2wd. It starts and idles with no problem. When I shift into 1st, it runs well for a minute or so, and then runs roughly and bogs down like it is starved for fuel. If I shift into the higher gears, it seems to run more smoothly, but still bogs down. If I let off the throttle, it runs smoothly again, but then bogs down. It's a lot like when there is water in the fuel, where the engine rpm fluctuates from high to low repeatedly. I drained the fuel tank, and added new gas, but it still has the same problem. Also, on the carb there are three lines (I assume vent or vacuum). One of the lines is broken, but I don't know if this has anything to do with the problem. Any ideas?

MOSCOW, April 25. /TASS/. Russian athletes have already secured a total of 343 Olympic licenses in the national team for the 2016 Summer Games, to be held in Brazil’s Rio de Janeiro between August 5 and 21, Russian Olympic Committee (ROC) President Alexander Zhukov said on Monday.
"There is little time left before the Olympics in Rio," Zhukov told journalists at a ceremony presenting the official uniform of the Russian athletes for the upcoming Olympics. "As of today, our athletes secured 343 licenses. There is still time to win some more."
"In all, our national team will consist of about 400 athletes," the ROC president said. "Adding up coaches and specialists the whole [Russian] delegation will stand at over 800 people."
The Russian Olympic Committee (ROC) has spent the sum of over 500 million rubles ($7.6 million) on the preparation of the national team for the 2016 Summer Games, to be held in Brazil’s Rio de Janeiro between August 5 and 21, ROC President went on to say.
"The Russian Olympic Committee has a program of preparations for the Games in Rio," Zhukov said. "This program supplements the programs pursued by the government and the Sports Ministry. We [ROC] have already allocated over 500 million rubles. There will be more spending ahead of us."
The Russian national team finished the 2012 Summer Olympics in the fourth place of the overall medal standings having won 22 gold, 24 silver and 32 bronze medals, behind the United States (46-28-29), China (28-30-21) and Great Britain (29-17-19).


A late portrait of the Qianlong Emperor highlights the enduring allure of Imperial Chinese culture.
T his late portrait of the Qianlong Emperor – still majestic in his 80s – was a late punctuation to a lifetime series of court portraits completed in the formal shengrong style, in which the Emperor is portrayed straight on in a serene pose. A masterpiece of Qing dynasty art, it is also emblematic of how China’s imperial past continues to enthrall modern Western audiences.
Celebrating art’s unique power to promote understanding and progress across cultures, Sotheby’s and Citi Private Bank are partnering to present 5 episodes of Most Famous Artworks.
The silk scroll work was a highlight of the Metropolitan Museum of Art's exhibition The Emperor's Private Paradise: Treasures from the Forbidden City in 2011. The show encompassed some 90 objects from the Forbidden City in Beijing, including murals, paintings, architectural elements, furniture, Buddhist icons and decorative arts. Many of the objects had never before been seen in public. The New York Times called it a “Qing-related coup.”
This extraordinary portrait the Qianlong Emperor from 1791 melds Western painting techniques – in particular its use of perspective – with the traditional Chinese aesthetic of stillness. The Emperor has been depicted many times in popular culture in the years since it was painted, most recently in the blockbuster Chinese television series The Story of Yanxi Palace.
The big budget production, which traces the romances and power games at play in the imperial court, has set new records in the region. The show has been streamed 14 billion times on China’s equivalent of Netflix and was reportedly the most Googled television series of 2018.
“It’s an understatement to say that the Qing Dynasty period drama has taken Asia by storm,” observed a critic for Today, who put its appeal down to its “scheming concubines” and “the most badass heroine since the Girl With The Dragon Tattoo."
The Forbidden City, where the painting has remained since it was completed, is classified as a UNESCO World Heritage site. Now under the aegis of the Palace Museum, it is presently going through a period of extensive restoration. At a commencement ceremony in September 2018, a consecrated treasure box was removed from the main ridge beam of Yang Xin Dian, or the Hall of Mental Cultivation, where Qianlong died in 1799. The renovation work spans almost 8,000 square meters, including 13 ancient buildings, and will be finished in 2020, in time for the Forbidden City’s 600th anniversary.
Important Qing court paintings are exceptionally rare and, therefore, seldom appear at auction. A notable exception was the sale, at Sotheby’s Hong Kong in 2015, of a large portrait of the Qianlong Emperor’s favorite consort, Chunhui, by the Italian Jesuit priest and painter Guiseppe Castiglione.
“Castiglione’s brushwork gives his subject a beauty and gentility befitting a high-ranking court lady,” wrote Nie Chongzheng in the catalogue. “This painting is currently the only example of her in full ceremonial costume, and the inscription by the emperor, most likely written after her death, demonstrates his remembrance of his deceased consort.”
The work achieved HK$137.4 million (US$17.6 million) after 20 minutes of bidding, setting a world auction record for a Chinese Imperial portrait.

Our next tourist and photographic stop is at the California Lighthouse, located in the sector of Noord, this offers us a panoramic 360 panoramic view of the west coast of the island, formed by beaches and coral reefs.
Thanks to this beautiful white architecture and the perfect blue sky is a highly recommended place to take pictures, here is very important the position of the sun and play with strong winds.
In this location we can find rocks around the lighthouse that will help us complement a good shot with textures, super recommended to use fish eye lenses or large field of view to cover the lighthouse completely, this picture was taken with a gopro camera hero7 with a wide field setting. You must lie on the floor and tilt the camera up. Another tip is to look for the rock farthest from the lighthouse so that you can sit there and even leave the whole lighthouse.

Hong Kong is likely to see a mass transfer of its youth as the city is released in a renewed period of uncertainty, following China’s decision to impose a national bill, an analyst warned.
“For young people in Hong Kong, the future is elsewhere, it’s as simple as that,” David Roche, president and global strategist at Independent Strategy, told CNBC’s “Squawk Box” on Friday.
“Young people, all their lives ahead of them, are making their own decisions,”; said Roche, adding that Hong Kong youth are looking to move overseas for reasons such as education and their career. “A large proportion of these people seek to leave, whether they protest or not.”
Roche’s comments came after the Chinese National Congress on Thursday approved a proposal to enact a new national security law for Hong Kong, a special administrative region under China. The move raised questions about the status of territorial semi-autonomy that occurred when the former British colony returned to Chinese rule in 1997.
In response to Beijing’s move, US President Donald Trump announced Friday that he would take steps to eradicate trade and travel privileges in Hong Kong. One concern to observers is that any potential sanctions applicable to the United States in China, would also apply to Hong Kong.
Hong Kong is governed by the principle of “one nation, two systems” which gives it some freedoms not available to those on the mainland, including limited election rights and the power of self-governance. Critics said the new law would give Beijing more power to eradicate disputes.
Even before the security legislation was proposed, Hong Kong had been stoned for months by pro-democracy protests last year sparked by a proposed extradition bill. These mass demonstrations became increasingly violent and weakened in the broader anti-government demonstrations. Months of civil unrest pushed the city’s economy into a recession as tourists arrived and retail prices hit.
Youth ‘somewhat hostile’
The outbreak of the coronavirus, with the city reporting its first case in January, has brought some sadness to the city as social flight measures are put in place. But protesters are back on the streets after China’s new law is proposed.
“Whether you’re a defender or not a Hong Kong protester, whether you’re a teenager, the perspective for you given the pay levels in Hong Kong and the Greater Bay Area and everything else. The outlook for yours is – career -wise, lifestyle-wise – not good, “Roche said.
Hong Kong riot police rounded up a group of protesters during a protest protesting a bill that would prove insulting China’s national anthem, demonstrators marched on street and sing songs and slogans.

“It’s very, very bad. This is probably the biggest hit that could come from a worsening situation,” he added.
Taiwan is stepping up its offer to help recover Hong Kongers who want to leave the city. The U.K. is also reporting. the possibility of offering Hong Kongers a British National (Overseas) passport – a document issued to some city citizens in its days under the colonial government – a path to citizenship, according to the BBC.
However, it is unknown how many can actually get away.
According to Roche, “approximately 70% of all people who have demonstrated or professed either pro-democracy or more-minded forms of freedom in Hong Kong, do not have a passport that allows them to go away. “
Commenting on the current sentiment among Hong Kong youth, Roche said: “Young people are still a bit hostile and I hope we have never seen the latter in street demonstrations.”
Still, he warned that repression would get “more intense.”
“We’ll see what coverage actually motivates big people out on the streets or not,” the strategist said. “That is clearly, obviously a risk.”
“I would say the will is not resignation, it is somber,” Roche said.

Two separate cases before the U.S. Supreme Court this week will bring up matters before the court's nine justices that could impact whether same-sex couples have a right to marry in California and perhaps other states, while also determinining if the federal government will be allowed to provide benefits to legally married same-sex couples.
While same-sex marriage is currently legal in only a handful of U.S. states, new precedents could be set that may affect other states considering whether to allow same-sex marriage.
The decision by the justices will come by the end of June.
The first case (Hollingsworth v. Perry) on Tuesday involves a challenge to the constitutionality of California's gay marriage ban. The second (United States v. Windsor) involves a legal challenge of the constitutionality of parts of a 1996 federal marriage law defining the institution as being between one man and one woman.
The California case to be heard on Wednesday will allow the Supreme Court's nine judges to ask questions about whether same-sex couples have the right to marry.
In 2008, the California Supreme Court ruled that same-sex couples could marry. However shortly thereafter, California voters passed a measure called Proposition 8 that banned same-sex marriage in the state. An appeal to a federal court ruled that the ban was unconstitutional. The case for allowing the ban is being argued by a supporter of the law after California officials refused to defend it, thereby raising the issue of standing.
However a narrow technical ruling could simply decide that one of the parties in the case does not have the ability to challenge the previous rulings due to a lack of standing, a legal term for eligibility.
The second case involves clauses of the 1996 Defense of Marriage Act (DOMA) and whether married gay couples can receive federal benefits currently given only to heterosexual couples.
In the DOMA case, the law prohibits the federal government from recognizing same-sex marriages. However two courts of appeals have rejected a section of the law which prohibits legally married same-sex couples from receiving federal benefits. Among the 1,100 benefits married couples enjoy are filing joint tax returns and sharing health insurance.
The Obama administration decided last year it would not defend DOMA in court. The law is being defended with support by conservative federal lawmakers.

Trotter and Associates (TAI), the City of North Chicago’s engineer, began 2020 by coordinating the first of a series of structure demolitions. TAI’s Phil Kazimier (Head of Construction) and Steve Cieslica (Vice President, P.E.) prepared the plans & specifications for this project while Chris Merino has been overseeing and coordinating the demolition portion in the field. TAI’s GIS staff (Mark Dupree & Chris Merino) have also assisted the City with tracking demolition projects throughout the years with an interactive map. This busting program has been partially funded by a Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) and IDHA Abandoned Properties Grant. As a result of the City’s blight busting program, North Chicago has seen a substantial increase in property values.

(CHICAGO) A man has been charged with murder in a Chicago apartment building fire that killed an infant, two other children and a man.
Police say in a statement that 51-year-old Reginald Hester faces four counts of first-degree murder and two counts of arson. He’s scheduled to appear in court Wednesday for a bond hearing, a day after he was arrested. It wasn’t known whether he had a lawyer.
Hester’s family has denied he had anything to do with the fire.
Police said after the Aug. 23 fire that it appeared to have been deliberately set by someone after a domestic dispute.
Three children ages 3 months, 4 and 7 died in the fire along with a 56-year-old man. The Chicago Tribune reports Hester was earlier questioned in the case and released.

Motorola Releases the Moto E, Coming to Canada Soon Dylan Duarte February 26, 2015 News Motorola released the new Moto E today in 40 countries across the globe. At only $149 off-contract, it’s intended to be an entry-level phone for those looking to test the smartphone waters without breaking the bank. Smartphone technology has reached a point where even a budget model features a 1.2 GHz quad-core processor, and in this case it runs Android Lollipop (with added Moto features) fairly well, according to Tech Crunch. Less impressive, however, is the low-resolution, 4.5-inch display. The camera is only 5MP, but considering how cheap the phone is you could do a lot worse. Physically, the phone is well made and feels like a quality device. You can also change the bezel, swapping out colors, which is a nice little customizable bonus. The phone isn’t available in Canada just yet, but it is coming. It’ll be available through Koodo, TELUS, and Videotron in March and chatr, MTS, and Wind Mobile will be getting the phone in the spring. Share This With The World!

Lamberhurst School of Dance and Theatre
Starting with a handful of girls in 1977 the school now has 300 pupils drawn from Lamberhurst and surrounding villages.
Katherine Mansi is now principal of the school with teachers Margaret Mansi, Kirsty Cooper, Holly Sturman & Becky Sperring.
I attended Lamberhurst School of Dance from a really young age doing Tap, Modern and Ballet. Dance was always a highlight of the week growing up and had an amazing social side too- I made many great friends there as well as many fun memories. Dancing itself is also something for life and is something all abilities and ages can do, I have even continued it at uni.. it’s a refreshing break from work! Lamberhurst dance school became like a family- that I was very sad to leave at Uni! A big thank you to Katherine Mansi and Maggie Mansi for making it so memorable.
‘I honestly do not know where to begin when talking about Lamberhurst Dance School. I have so many happy memories of my time spent there and wish I could travel back from university each week to carry on with the classes. I gained so much from my time at the school, all the teachers are so encouraging and inspiring, and am so thankful for everything they have taught me. I also made some amazing friends, gained confidence and loved the friendly, family atmosphere. From exams, to shows, to trips I have so many amazing experiences relating to the school and cannot put into words how grateful I am for everything I’ve gained whilst being there in addition to gaining high-class tuition and grades.’
Joining Lamberhurst dance school at a young age was one of the best things I could have possibly done, the entire school is one big family and has boosted my confidence enormously. I was so sad to leave and I will be forever grateful for the many opportunities to dance outside of the usual weekly classes, from exams to fetes and the unique experience of dancing in numerous shows. Even after leaving the school I am continuing to dance at Liverpool University, and hope to create even more happy memories and good friends here than I have gained from Lamberhurst. The classes are challenging and enjoyable and I would like to thank Maggie and Katherine so much for sharing their love of dance with me, and making it such a big part of my life.


There are still plenty of new Broadway shows opening this season at group discount prices. But new Broadway musicals are also being added for the fall on what seems to be a daily basis. Shows that have a track record, such as “Phantom,” “Chicago,” “Once,” “The Lion King,” and others are great to see. But there’s nothing like a new, untested show to create anticipation and excitement. Today All Tickets, your Broadway group sales and discount specialist, takes a look at the new musical “Stormy Weather: The Lena Horne Story.”
Brand new and scheduled for fall 2013, “Stormy Weather: The Lena Horne Story” is the story of the stylish, skilled and passionate actress and singer. The Broadway premiere of the show is exciting news as Leslie Uggams has been pegged to play Lena Horne. The show, which is based on the biography “Lena Horne, Entertainer, ” is conceived and written by Sharleen Cooper Cohen. The cast at the Pasadena Playhouse numbered 16. The show includes songs by some of America’s greatest songwriters, including Cole Porter, Harold Arlen & Johnny Mercer, Rodgers & Hart.
Horne, who was a gifted actress and singer and was famous for her rendition of “Stormy Weather,” was a true superstar. She was a groundbreaking African-American film, stage, cabaret, and recording star and a talented concert singer. Horne was also a well known civil rights activist. Horne died at the age of 92 in 2010. In 1981, she won a Special Tony Award for her concert “Lena Horne: The Lady and Her Music.”
“Stormy Weather: The Lena Horne Story” will be codirected by Sheldon Epps and Michael Bush and choreographed by Randy Skinner. Uggams starred in a 2009 version of the show at the Pasadena Playhouse and also in a 2007 production at the Prince Music Theatre in Philadelphia. Bush directed both productions and Epps was involved as the Artistic Director at Pasadena. Skinner, who choreographer “42nd Street” and “State Fair” was in charge of creating the dances for both versions of “Stormy Weather.”
Tony Winner Uggams
Uggams won a Tony for “Hallelujah, Baby!” in 1968. Her appearance in “Hallelujah, Baby!” is ironic when you consider that she will play Horne on Broadway. Horne was first offered the role of Georgina in “Hallelujah, Baby!” and turned it down. The relatively unknown Uggams was cast and the part made her a star. Another unusual aspect of Uggams’s big break is that she actually tied actress Patricia Routledge (“Darling of the Day”) for the Tony Award for Best Actress in a musical.
Other New Shows
“Stormy Weather: The Lena Horne Story” joins new musicals “Houdini” starring Hugh Jackman and “Cotton Club Parade” in the new 2013-2014 Broadway season. Before those exciting shows appear Broadway will welcome “Cinderella,” “Matilda The Musical,” and “Motown The Musical.” For more information call 1-800-922-0716.

Objectives: To examine pain interference in verbally communicative older adults with mild to moderate Alzheimer's disease (AD) and to examine the association of pain interference with cognitive function and depressive symptoms.
Method: For this pilot study, we used a cross-sectional design to examine pain interference (Brief Pain Inventory-Short Form), cognitive function (Mini-Mental State Exam), and depressive symptoms (15-item Geriatric Depression Scale) in 52 older (≥65) communicative adults with AD who reported being free from chronic pain requiring daily analgesics.
Results: Pain was reported to interfere with general activity (13.5%), mood (13.5%), walking ability (13.5%), normal work (11.5%), enjoyment of life (11.5%), relationships with other people (9.6%), and sleep (9.6%). Pain interference was significantly positively correlated with both cognitive function (rs = 0.46, p = 0.001) and depressive symptomology (rs = 0.45, p = 0.001), indicating that greater reported pain interference was associated with better cognitive function and more depressive symptoms.
Conclusion: Among older people with AD who report being free from chronic pain requiring daily analgesics, 2 in 10 are at risk of pain interference and depressive symptoms. Those with better cognitive function reported more pain interference and depressive symptoms, meaning pain is likely to be under-reported as AD progresses. Clinicians should regularly assess pain interference and depressive symptoms in older persons with AD to identify pain that might be otherwise overlooked..
Keywords: Dementia; community dwelling adults with dementia; end-of-life; pain assessment.
