A teen nursing student died during a sex session with an aspiring Brazilian football star. Soccer player Dimas de Oliveira, 18, is currently being investigated in connection to the death of a 19-year-old nursing student who died after suffering "four heart attacks" following a night of sexual activity with the sports star.
De Oliveira, a player for Corinthians under-20, told Sao Paulo authorities that Livia da Silva, 19, fell ill at his apartment on Tuesday after having sex. He called for an ambulance, telling authorities that she had fainted. However, when paramedics arrived at the scene, they found the teenager was "bleeding from the vagina." An investigation has been launched.
Mysterious Death After Having Sex
Paramedics gave Lavia de Silva CPR and put her in the ambulance, where she suffered a second cardiac arrest. Upon arrival at the local Emergency Department in Sao Paulo, Brazil, she suffered two more cardiac arrests and died.
Police investigators have reportedly requested Livia da Silva's medical records, as per Brazilian news outlet G1. As of now, the official cause of death is still pending confirmation.
A doctor informed the family of the young woman that her death resulted from four cardiac arrests and blood loss due to a five-centimeter cut in her vagina.
During an investigation at de Oliveira's home on Wednesday, traces of blood were found on his bed mattress and the floor. Authorities also recovered a condom and two electronic cigarettes.
Da Silva, who was the daughter of a police officer, told her parents that she is going to meet a friend at a restaurant to watch the top division Serie A match between Corinthians and São Paulo. Instead, she visited de Oliveira at his home.
Suspense Builds Up
De Oliveira told the police that he connected with da Silva on Instagram two months ago. He said that no drugs or alcoholic beverages were taken at his home, although da Silva had a beer in the afternoon before their encounter.
He further said that da Silva smoked from her two electronic cigarettes and fell ill during their second sexual intercourse.
At the hospital, tensions escalated between De Oliveira and da Silva's father, nearly resulting in a physical altercation. Police intervention was necessary to separate the two.
"Dimas remains at the disposal of the police authorities to provide any and all clarifications," said de Oliveira's attorney, Tiago Lenoir, by G1. "He is quite shaken, dismayed by all of this."
Lenoir told Metropoles that de Oliveira "confirmed that they had consensual sexual relations using a condom."
De Oliveira is currently on loan from Coimbra to Corinthian's under-20 club until January 2025.
The club said in statement that "it is closely following the development of the facts related to the episode involving one of its base athletes on Tuesday night, 1/30/2024. We reinforce that the club awaits the investigation of the facts and is available to collaborate with the authorities.
"Above all, Corinthians deeply regrets the death of young Livia Gabriele da Silva Santos and sympathizes with her family."

Bread: it's not just filler or evil carbs, especially when baked by the right hands. While there have been restaurants baking their own breads in-house for decades, the recent movement of "bread programs" or courses elevates yeast, flour and water to another level. (Warning: these specialty breads usually aren't free.) Here are 10 next-level bread programs at restaurants around the country.
Trentina in Cleveland
Winning numerous awards, Trentina has been taking Cleveland by storm with chef Jonathon Sawyer's Northern Italian cuisine and unique tastings menus. One of the most exciting offerings from the tasting menu ($115 per person) is a bread course (above) that recalls an old English tradition. Edible beef tallow candles (they are made from rendered beef fat) arrive, lit and emitting a meaty aroma. Then the bread is smeared with the candle fat for one decadent bread course. The bread is a filone (Italian yeast bread) from On the Rise baker-owner Adam Gidlow with a salt and sumac blend.
1903 Ford Dr., Cleveland; 216-421-2900
Juniper & Ivy in San Diego
Top Chef All Stars winner Richard Blais features some memorable breads (from $5-$9) at his San Diego restaurant, Juniper & Ivy. In a winning combo of sweet and savory, chef de cuisine Anthony Wells bakes wild mushroom monkey bread served with a side of roasted apple butter. In addition, watch for unique toast selections — think octopus toast layered with white bean purée, pine nuts and preserved Meyer lemon — or buttermilk biscuits presented in a smoked dome (above) with a side of smoked butter.
2228 Kettner Blvd., San Diego; 619-269-9036
Burritt Room + Tavern in San Francisco
Upstairs in the Mystic Hotel at Charlie Palmer's Burritt Room + Tavern, their special BR+Table chef's menu ($55-$75 per person) presents ever-changing, creative breads and spreads. Executive chef Luke Knox serves bold flavors, like a marble rye bread with chicken-liver mousse, sea salt, walnut and a pear vinaigrette or a porcini mushroom brioche with black truffle butter. Our personal favorite: the Parmesan herb garlic knot (pictured) smeared with fermented tomato butter.
417 Stockton St., San Francisco; 415-400-0561
Weights + Measures in Houston
Houston's brand-new Weights + Measures just opened in January, bringing together a chocolate shop, coffee bar, restaurant bar and bakery, all under one roof. They are a "bread-centric" restaurant, confirmed by their in-house bakery wing, Slow Dough Bread Co., which turns out a range of bread pairings with many dishes, baking everything from hamburger buns to pizza dough in-house. Baker Heath Wendell crafts donuts, pretzels, pastries and breads to go. Additionally, a number of menu items are paired with breads, like chopped chicken liver with toast (pictured, $9) or a cranberry walnut bread served with pea and Parmesan spread.
2808 Caroline St., Houston; 713-654-1970
Rioja in Denver
Larimer Square favorite Rioja has pastry chef Eric Dale to thank for its dreamy house-baked biscuits. The restaurant also partners with local bakery Grateful Bread to offer an array of rolls and loaves, which come free at the start of the meal. Selections change often, but you might find the likes of rosemary and goat cheese biscuits, lavender levain or mustard currant candied ginger rolls. Bread is served with room temperature unsalted butter dotted with pink Himalayan sea salt.
1431 Larimer St., Denver; 303-820-2282
Orsa & Winston in LA
Josef Centeno’s Orsa & Winston is a sophisticated tasting-menu spot ($80-$225 per person) in an understated Downtown LA space. One of the best moments out of numerous courses is the ever-changing bread course. Recently, it was melting-soft milk bread focaccia (above) paired with pickled radishes and an umami-laden smoked black cod tonnato sauce.
122 W. Fourth St., Los Angeles; 213-687-0300
Pearl & Ash in NYC
At this Bowery wine-focused spot, chef Richard Kuo bakes a focaccia-style dough ($4, above) from a mixture of all-purpose and whole wheat flours smoked with applewood and hickory-wood chips. Then Kuo crafts a house chicken butter, made with chicken schmaltz (fat) rendered from chicken skin, whipped together with cow's milk and maple syrup for a sweet and salty contrast to the smoky-soft bread.
220 Bowery, New York City; 212-837-2370
The Rogue Gentlemen in Richmond, VA
Richmond, Virginia, is home to The Rogue Gentlemen, a cocktail-centric, farm-to-table restaurant where owner John Maher partners with baker Drew Thomasson on Parker House rolls, brioche toast, baguettes and brioche donuts (all are $4-$5 per order). While the former two are menu mainstays, they play with different fats and flavorings in the brioche, like foie gras, bone marrow or black sesame. Parker House rolls arrive in individual cast-iron pans (pictured), paired with house-cultured butter and Maldon salt.
618 N. First St., Richmond; 804-477-3456
Lazy Bear in San Francisco
Lazy Bear's unique ticketed-only dinners ($100-$150 per person) start with upstairs appetizers and cocktail punches, then move downstairs to communal seating that feels like one big dinner party. Lawyer-turned-chef David Barzelay and team craft inspiring courses, one of them being the "butter, curds & whey" bread course (above) where loaves or slices of bread arrive at the tables. It might be a dense, subtly sweet and hearty bay laurel and molasses bread, partnered with an ice cream-like scoop of tangy, salted, house-cultured buttermilk butter.
3416 19th St., San Francisco; 415-874-9921
Semilla in Brooklyn
At the vegetable-forward Williamsburg restaurant Semilla, Pamela Yung's bread course is a highlight in their tasting-menu-only format ($75 per person). Look for the arrival of a box filled with warm bread (above), paired with house buttermilk and butter from upstate NY farm Cowbella. Breads change regularly, made from mostly local, Northeastern grains, typically a levain-style bread. Watch for playful renditions, like black-garlic knots, nettle brioche, green-garlic pancakes or pao de quijo (Brazilian cheese bread).
160 Havemeyer St., Brooklyn; 718-782-3474

text: An important aspect of being an animator is knowing how to illustrate force and movement with a simple pose or gesture. I recently picked up the book "Force: Dynamic Life Drawing For Animators" which has many great examples of these kinds of drawings that really feel alive. It's definitely not easy to get this in your drawings, it takes lots of time and patience. Here a few gestures from photos I did which I think are a good starting point but are no where near the kind of drawings I want to do. I'm finding it hard to grasp some of the concepts in the book, but like I said, these things are never easy.

INTERVIEW – JOE DIGENOVA – legal analyst and former US Attorney to the District of Columbia
- DON JR: Senator Lindsey Graham advises Donald Trump Jr. to Avoid Testifying Over Russia Deal: “Call it a Day.” During an appearance on Fox News’s Sunday Morning Futures, Senator Lindsey Graham brushed off the Senate Intelligence Committee’s attempts to subpoena Donald Trump Jr. to give further testimony regarding efforts to build a Trump Tower in Russia. “If I were Donald Trump Jr.’s lawyer, I would tell him you don’t need to go back into this environment anymore,” Graham said. “You’ve been there for hours and hours, and nothing being alleged here changes the outcome of the Mueller investigation. I would call it a day.”
- UKRAINE TRIP: Giuliani cancels Ukraine trip, says he’d be ‘walking into a group of people that are enemies of the US.’ (Fox News) — Rudy Giuliani, President Trump’s personal attorney, said Friday on “Fox News @ Night” that he will not be traveling to Ukraine as previously announced.
- BIDEN / UKRAINE: Rand Paul: Americans Will Be ‘Shocked’ to Know What Biden’s Son Was Up To. Sunday on ABC’s “Meet the Press,” Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY) discussed a report from The New York Times on questions of former vice president Joe Biden’s potential conflict of interest.
- STEELE DOSSIER: State Department Under Pressure Over Christopher Steele Contacts. Three Republican senators are pressing the State Department to provide information about a meeting between dossier author Christopher Steele and a State Department official before the 2016 election. In letters this week to Sec. of State Mike Pompeo, GOP Sens. Chuck Grassley of Iowa, Ron Johnson of Wisconsin and Lindsey Graham of South Carolina pressed Pompeo for details about the Oct. 11, 2016 meeting, which was held at Foggy Bottom between Steele and Kathleen Kavalec, the deputy assistant secretary of state for European and Eurasian affairs.
- DEMS NOT READING THE FULL MUELLER REPORT: CNN’s SARAH WESTWOOD tweet: Five Republicans and no Democrats have so far read the less redacted version of the Mueller report that DOJ made available to 12 congressional leaders, @LauraAJarrett reports. This version of the Mueller report only contains redactions of grand jury material.
- Robert Mueller won’t testify next week, date is up in the air. (CNN)House Judiciary Chairman Jerry Nadler said Friday that special counsel Robert Mueller will not testify before his committee next week and that the exact date for Mueller to come speak publicly before Congress is under discussion. “It won’t be next week,” Nadler told reporters. “But we’re negotiating with him, we’re talking to him and the Justice Department.” The move was not unexpected as Nadler said Thursday evening that Mueller was unlikely to testify before the committee on May 15, the target date that the New York Democrat had floated earlier this month. Nadler said this week that negotiations with Mueller’s team at the Justice Department to finalize the hearing continue amid President Donald Trump’s various stated positions on whether the special counsel should testify.

Solving Electrical Problems with Fluke Thermal Imaging
Today’s thermal imagers have become a realistic solution for everyday electrical maintenance as they are rugged, easy to use, and much more affordable than even just a few years ago. It's a straight-forward process, where a qualified technician or electrician points the thermal imager at the equipment in question and scans the immediate area, looking for unexpected hot spots. The imager produces a live image of the heat emitted from the equipment and with the quick squeeze of the trigger, a thermal image is captured. When the inspection is complete, the image is uploaded to a computer, Apple®, iPhone® or iPad® for closer analysis, reporting, and future trending.
There are a few basic how-tos to consider... electrical load, safety, and emissivity. In this application note, we walk you through these, as well as the Top 5 Checklist, and much more.

The physician author is puzzled about what he can do to help a young woman who comes to him for treatment of her chronic abdominal pain. She has had every test, seen every specialist, and has no clear diagnosis. Only on the third visit, which she has initiated, does he discover that she was sexually assaulted at age 14. He is the only person she has told.
He immediately feels out of his element, and asks her to see a psychiatrist. She refuses, and insists he handle her care. He sets up open-ended visits to allow her time to talk, and looks for help in the medical literature and from a psychiatrist colleague.
Over time, as they explore her feelings and experiences, his patient gains self esteem and transforms herself into a confident, beautiful woman, planning on travel, school, and career. After her last visit with him, he realizes, "I had been chosen to receive a gift of trust, and of all the gifts I had ever received, none seemed as precious."
A nephrologist is named in a lawsuit after serving as a consulting physician in a diabetes case. The diabetic patient had had a serious infection and later his leg was amputated; he apparently felt the doctors neglected the seriousness of his condition. When the dialysis unit treating this patient requests to transfer his care to the author, whose unit is in the patient's home town, the author is uncertain what to do.
The author is angry about the law suit, and his colleagues counsel him to refuse to take this patient. But after realizing that the lawsuit was merely a reflection of the patient's suffering, and that he needs the same compassion and care as any other human being, the author agrees to accept the patient. The author discovers that his patient is a meek, gentle man; over time, he helps him come to terms with his illness, his disability, and his approaching death. Eventually the patient drops his malpractice suit.
In a South American town during the early years of this century, a retired doctor long known as an eccentric flatly refuses treatment to victims of a riot. Years later, the doctor hangs himself. For the vengeful town, the issue becomes whether he will receive a proper burial or be allowed to rot in the house where he had lately secluded himself.
This issue becomes the focal point of recollections, from many points of view, of fragments of the doctor's bizarre history. An old military man, who was originally the doctor's sponsor and host, braves the town's anger and forces his family members to help him carry out the burial. As it turns out, no one remembers the outrage apart from a few town officials, and the burial takes place without incident.
This early 20th century novel is largely a tale of complex family and love relationships. It is the story of two brothers who vie for the love of the same woman, a competition that nearly destroys the men's friendship but that also leads the narrative into adventures on the frontiers of the Canadian Rockies during the building of the transcontinental railroad.
One of the brothers is inspired by a country surgeon to enter medicine and the middle third of the book deals with the physician training system of the time. The reader is introduced to representatives of both the finest and the most immoral of practitioners and practices. Running from his broken love relationship, the newly minted physician travels to the frontier where he assumes a pseudonym and practices medicine in the railroad camps. His work is inspired and he becomes a folk hero.
In a parallel narrative, the second brother, now a minister, also goes west, while grieving the fracture in his relationship with his younger sibling. Neither knows that the other has relocated to the Rockies. The remainder of the story details the doctor's work and eventual reunion with his estranged brother.
In the past, "tuberculosis" was a taboo word. The poet reviews the disease's many names and its history. John Keats said, "Bring me a candle, Brown. / That is arterial blood, I cannot be deceived / in that color. It is my death warrant."
For centuries so many died of tuberculosis; physicians were so impotent to help. Now, a patient accepts the fact that his chest x-ray has cleared as unremarkable, "as his right / and is right."
Richard Kraft is about as burnt-out as a fifth-year resident in pediatric surgery can be. Overwhelmed by his stint in an inner-city, public hospital in Los Angeles, he seeks to hide from the misery of his patients by avoiding any personal connection with them. Then he meets twelve-year-old Joy, an Asian immigrant trying desperately to learn the puzzling ways of her new culture. She speaks words that trigger memories from Kraft's own childhood as the son of a U.S. agent in Joy's country, and he loses his distance.
He performs surgery on a life-threatening cancer in her leg, pulling back at the last minute in an unreasonable fear that he will hurt her if he cuts too deep. The implied result: incomplete excision of the cancer and a death sentence for the child he now tries, unsuccessfully to avoid. His avoidance is repeatedly foiled by Linda Espera, the physical therapist with whom he is falling in love and who will not let him abandon the emotional needs of any of the children in Joy's ward.
Summary:The author, a pediatrician by training who has gradually moved into psycho-oncology and training others in relationship centered care, writes about life in this collection of short vignettes and analyses. She blends stories of her own experiences as patient and as woman with those she has gathered from a long history of patient encounters. There is no temporal sequence, but the work is grouped into thematic segments. The author shares selected, carefully garnered and assessed narratives of life events intended to be spiritually healing to those who are ill or who care for the sick.
Dr. Terry McKechnie works in the emergency room in a Los Angeles hospital in the early 1990’s, and is having an affair with Virginia Lee, the new wife of an old friend of his from medical school. Virginia works with snakes. She is attracted to danger. She falls in love with Terry immediately after deciding to marry the reliable Rick, with his predictable dermatologist’s hours and habits.
Virginia is bitten by a rare snake and drives herself to Terry’s hospital. The drive is terrifyingly described, time seeming to move at two speeds at once, as Virginia sits stuck in traffic trying not to panic, the terse prose capturing her efforts at clarity even as the rapid effects of the venom begin to cloud her thoughts. Because she is allergic to horses, the antivenom, made of horse serum, cannot be given to her, and she begins to bleed. Unfortunately, she also has an extremely rare blood type.
As well as being a doctor, Terry is a "universal donor": his blood can be given to people with most other blood types without danger of rejection. His gift fails him at this point, however: Virginia must be given blood of her own type. One person has such blood: a psychopath on the run from the police whom Terry had previously allowed to escape. The novel’s plot culminates in Terry’s search for and encounter with the convict, in which he persuades him to give his blood (and, necessarily his freedom--he is arrested in the hospital) and Virginia survives.
In 1831 Edinburgh, Cabman John Gray (Boris Karloff) delivers a paralyzed little girl and her mother to the office of Dr. Wolfe "Toddy" MacFarlane (Henry Daniell). A body snatcher by night, Gray has a special hold over the doctor, who has lost his clinical nerve and hides in the teaching of anatomy. The earnest medical student, Donald Fettes (Russell Wade), is on the verge of abandoning medicine, but MacFarlane notices his good bedside skills with the little girl, makes him his special assistant, and initiates him into the business of grave-robbing. His wife (Edith Atwater) is opposed to this action, complaining that the student will be "ruined."
Fettes is unaware that Gray and MacFarlane narrowly missed conviction for murder in the Burke and Hare affair of 1823. Obsessed with helping the child, Fettes begs Gray to find a subject on which they can practice spinal surgery. Gray complies by "burke-ing" (murdering) a well-known street singer. MacFarlane forces Fettes to remain silent and they begin their research, but they are overheard by the servant, Joseph (Bela Lugosi), who then tries to blackmail Gray only to be "burked" himself.
The child's operation does not supply immediate results and in a fit of frustration MacFarlane murders Gray as he cries: "you'll never be rid of me." Buoyed up by the news that the child has finally begun to walk and mostly to prove to himself that he does not need Gray, MacFarlane robs a fresh grave.
On the return journey from the cemetery in a driving night rain, MacFarlane is tormented by Gray's last words; the elderly woman's corpse changes into the partially animate body of Gray. The doctor loses control, his horse breaks loose, and the carriage plunges down a bank where Fettes finds the doctor dead beside the woman's corpse.
In Book I Oliver Sacks describes his visit to Pingelap and Pohnpei in the Caroline Islands (now a part of the Federated States of Micronesia). On Pingelap (population 700) 5-10% of the people are completely colorblind; i.e. they have a rare hereditary condition called achromatopsia in which the retina has no functional cone cells. Rod cells, which normally provide peripheral and night vision, are their only source of vision. While partial colorblindness is common, achromatopsia is normally very rare. Sacks and Knut Nordby, a Norwegian scientist who is himself achromatopic, examined dozens of achromatopes on Pingelap and in a village of Pingelapese people on the larger Pohnpei.
In Book II Sacks takes the reader to Guam where he investigates (with his friend John Steele, a neurologist who lives on the island) the neurological disease called "lytico-bodig." The "lytico" form of this disease is a progressive paralysis similar to amyotropic lateral sclerosis, while the "bodig" form resembles parkinsonism. Both appeared in Guam after the Second World Way and now seem to be dying out. However, no one has ever determined their cause.
Sacks tells the story of his visit, while also discussing various hypotheses that have been considered and discarded over forty years of study. The last section of the book describes a trip to Rota, a small island north of Guam, where Sacks visits a forest of cycad trees and discusses his life-long fascination with these primitive plants.

I started late on the guitar in a family of musicians. I picked up the guitar when I was 18 years old when I found an old acoustic at my grandfather’s house. From then I was self taught listening to Punk Rock, New Wave, and learning from friends. My love for the instrument and music drove me to really apply myself to really learning how to play. I would sit and just be creative, writing my own songs and putting little back yard bands together with my cousin and friends. Then, it was time for college and had to make a decision on what to study. Music was my passion and I never really taken a lesson before. I prepared myself by studying with Stephan Ferrara-Grand in San Clemente,CA for a short time to audition into the music program. I passed! I graduated with a Bachelor's degree from the San Diego State University School of Music and Dance in 1999, and I studied jazz guitar with international guitarist/violinist Art Johnson and theory with David Ward-Steinman. From the time I graduated, I have been playing professionally and recorded five releases of my own as well as made appearances on others and have toured the country several times playing my own original music. My bands have opened and/or toured with the likes of Dee Dee Ramone, Blink 182, Green Day, Voodoo Glow Skulls, Jimmy Eat World, Ten Foot Pole, Big Drill Car, and Leeland. I also play for Day 7 and Revival Christian Fellowship where I shared a stage with Greg Laurie, Franklin Graham, Raul Reis, and Jon Courson.
*** Lesson Details ***
I have been teaching music for over 10 years. I love my lessons to be laid back, light, yet focused. The lessons are tailored for the students needs/levels. For the beginning student we start from the basics. for example, tuning, vocabulary on the parts of the guitar, to basic chord shapes and strum patterns. Almost from the beginning, I introduce music theory to the student. I believe it is important to the musician, because music is a language that is spoken through the instrument and also read by the musician. Not just piano or band instruments, but guitar too! Guitarist always seem to get left behind in this. I teach it hand in hand with the guitar and it comes naturally while learning. Some students want to learn songs and/or to write songs. This is what I have been doing for many years and enjoy it! As the student progresses, I love to pull the creativity out of the students. Music is also art and a passage for the individual to express him/herself. It is a joy to see and help a musician to mature on the instrument!

I started singing professionally at the age of fourteen. I have had leading roles in semi-professional theatre productions since I was seventeen. I have also been assistant director, musical director, choreographer, costumer and writer for many productions from West Side Story to My Fair Lady to Camelot. In the theatre I have worked with and trained children and adults of all ages. I have also conducted summer camps that were theatre workshops for children. I was a school teacher at a Charter school for eight years and I taught music and drama to children from Kindergarten to 12th grade. I have been giving voice lessons for more than twenty years. I tailor my programs based on the needs of my students. I am passionate about music and I love being able to share that with other individuals who are passionate about music. I have worked with children and adults who told me "I cannot sing" and have shown them that, once you understand how your voice works, you can do things you never dreamed you could do. I will work hard to help anyone who has the love and determination to sing to improve and become a better singer.
One of my students was accepted to AMDA in New York and several of my students have won various competitions.
*** Lesson Details ***
The voice is an instrument and, like any instrument, you have to know all of its parts and how it works in order to get the most out of it. I teach my students how to properly use their voice without damaging their vocal chords. I teach vocal techniques and exercises to help my students become a better singer. My students will learn how to use their diaphragm; how to use dynamics; how to project; how to build up their lung capacity; how to sing in a clear and articulate manner; how to sing various different types of music; how to control their voice; and how to develop their natural ear for music as well as showmanship. My style and technique has been developed over many years of practical experience and learning from instructors and entertainers who work in the entertainment industry. My method of teaching is entirely my own and I have had a lot of success with it. I expect my students to work hard and be dedicated but I try to make the lessons not just instructional but fun.

I fully enjoy teaching music and theater to others and spreading the art of performance, reaching out to all generations. I believe in customizing every lesson to be unique for my students in a way that will serve their individual needs. I teach with patience and encouragement and believe that students prosper and improve much more from a positive experience. My lessons are intended to be fun and influential in a positive light that can lead to a rewarding career, hobby, or just for personal enjoyment!
Every since I was a little girl, I have been devoted to the arts. When I began college, I knew that music was my path. As a music major I developed a deeper understanding of music theory, piano, voice, and theater. I received my A.A. in Music at College of the Desert and my Bachelor of Music degree at the University of Redlands- which I attended on a music scholarship. I have played leading roles in several operas and musicals in Southern California, including Gianni Schicchi, Die Fledermaus, La Boheme (DTL nominee), The Impresario, The Grand Duke, Patience (DTL award), Cosi fan tutte, Little Women the Musical, Seussical the Musical, and many more. I have also appeared in several concerts, opera scenes, competitions (winning music scholarships and theater awards), and worked as a singer at churches, restaurants, and in pop bands. I continue to perform and study music because performing is a part of who I am and I could never live without it.
With this experience under my belt, I feel a desire to pass on my knowledge to students. I carry a strong passion to help people develop their abilities and make them their own. I truly believe that if someone wants something out of life then they WILL achieve it with dedication, perseverance, confidence, and by having FUN doing it!
*** Lesson Details ***
I begin each voice and acting lesson with a warm-up to prepare the student for their lesson. Next, we do a series of exercises specially designed to help each individual develop their skill in a way that best fits them. We then work on a piece of their choice for the remainder of the lesson, perfecting their technique and helping them become performance ready. I teach with patience and fun because I feel that this is the key to achieving goals and inspiring a good habit of practice.
If you do not already have a song, sheet music, or monologue (acting students) to bring in I can help you choose one during your first lesson. I also require that my students keep a practice journal to record their daily practice sessions. If possible, please bring a recording device of some sort so you can record your lessons. It is a HUGE help to be able to listen back on your lessons and to use them in your daily practice! No experience is necessary, that is what I'm here for!

Serenade in G Major (K525) by W.A. Mozart
“Eine kleine Nachtmusik” – includes Eine kleine Nachtmusik, Romance, Menuetto, Trio, Rondo
For Flute and Piano
Edited by Kurt Walther
Nearly all of the thirty-odd Serenades by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart (1756-1791) were composed during his youth in Salzburg, however, the Serenade in G for String Orchestra (K525) is a later Viennese work and takes the penultimate place in this splendid series; an inspired echo of the divertimento-spirit from the days of youth. This work acquired its world-renowned title from Mozart himself, as testified by an entry in his own handwriting, dated 10 August 1787, in the thematic catalogue. This entry also shows that the time of composition of “Eine kleine Nachtmusik” coincided with the time he was working on the second act of Don Giovanni.
According to the thematic catalogue the Serenade originally consisted of five movements, but the first Minuet and Trio were removed from the manuscript apparently during Mozart's lifetime and, despite much searching, have never again been found. The manuscript itself also disappeared ca. 1860 and was rediscovered in private ownership by Manfred Gorke in 1943. As was customary at the time, “Eine kleine Nachtmusik” was commissioned for some festive occassion; however, nothing is known today of the occasion itself.
In the following transcription, it was a simple matter to entrust the first violin part to the flute; the few double-stops have mostly been represented by short grace notes. The texture of the remaining string parts has had to be “translated” into a texture appropriate to the piano, (this particularly applies to the fourth movement.)
As no other instrumental work Mozart, “Eine kleine Nachtmusik” was an intermediate triumph throughout the world and became, greatly loved, the common property of mankind. Through this “miracle of perfection in miniature, with its irresitable melodic charm” (Alfred Beaujean) many people have been introduced to Mozart's music, the unique greatness of which ultimately remain beyond our comprehension.

Optical methods have been relying on PI positioning systems for years, e.g. for aligning optical systems or samples. Piezo actuators and motors are increasingly replacing conventional drive systems because they are more compact, more precise and faster. Other non-optical microscopic processes, such as SEM (scanning electron microscope) and AFM (atomic force microscope), use PI systems due to their high accuracy and dynamics.
Nowadays, numerous industries depend on faster and more precise imaging methods. In all markets, the required tasks are focusing, zoom, object alignment and higher resolution. This ranges from the inspection of surface structures on semiconductors or flat screens with whitelight interferometry to optical microscopy, and from the digitalization of documents to image stabilization for aerial photography and astronomy. In all of these fields, the PI Group is present with its precise, highly stable and dynamic positioning systems.
All fields are mandatory unless marked as optional.

Tobacco. Assault weapons. Oil — and any other product or company that contributes to climate change.
That’s the list of industries so-called ethical investors typically avoid, preferring to put their money into stocks of companies that do no harm.
But a couple of new names have joined the toxic list, according to Toronto-based ethical investment advisor Tim Nash.
“The top two companies that tend to get flagged these days as ethically questionable are Facebook and Amazon,” said Nash.
Reports of Amazon’s poor labour practices have made headlines while Jeff Bezos’s billions have grown, and Facebook. “has stoked the division around very contentious issues, whether it’s Black Lives Matter or climate change,” he said.
Add the recent antitrust report by American lawmakers that said big tech companies including Apple and Google abuse their “monopoly” power, and some investors are turning up their noses.
According to TD Securities, 2020 will be a record year for exchange-traded funds that track companies focused on ethical factors such as the environment, social impact and corporate governance. More money was invested in them in the first quarter than in all of 2019.
Nash’s clients are keen to invest in the stock market, he said, but are choosy.
“They still want profits. They still want to be able to save and earn money for their retirement. However, they want to avoid the worst offenders.”
Nowadays, those “worst offenders” include Big Tech.
In Killaloe, Ont., Duncan Noble and his wife, Mary Crnkovich, are approaching retirement age. Despite how well tech stocks are performing, they aim to keep them out of their investment portfolio.
“Facebook was in the news a lot in terms of influencing the 2016 election in the U.S.A., and I started reading more about how Big Tech can be a negative influence on our society,” said Noble. “It happens at the personal level also, in terms of people getting addicted to social media and becoming radicalized through various processes that technology enables.”
Noble said he and his wife also avoid the oil and gas sector. They don’t believe they’re losing money by avoiding specific industries.
“Our investments have done really well this year,” he said.
But others argue that it’s possible to find an ethical concern with almost any company, and that it’s foolish to not take advantage of the best performing sector in the stock market.
Not ‘dastardly’ billionaires
Financial advisor Barry Schwartz of Baskin Wealth Management says the technology category has been a superstar.
“It hasn’t been a winner for this year; it’s been a winner for the last 10 years,” he said. “The 10-year compounded return on the NASDAQ as of Sept. 30 has been 18 per cent, including dividends.”
Schwartz adds that rate of return has “smashed” every other class of asset.
He also points out that Mark Zuckerberg of Facebook is donating billions of dollars to worthy causes, while Amazon’s Bezos is funding journalism along with space exploration.
“These guys are not hoarding their money,” he said “They’re not these dastardly billionaires you see on TV that are out to crush society.”
Another point in their favour, said Schwartz, is that both Facebook and Amazon have been creating jobs and adding wealth in a number of ways, both for workers and for investors.
“That improves the economy and adds value,” he said.
That argument doesn’t hold water for Samantha Early, a labour organizer in Toronto, who is one of Nash’s newest clients.
At age 27, she says her investments aren’t aimed at retirement, but at giving her a financial cushion in the years ahead.
“I think for folks of my generation, the expectation is that we will spend our working lives in a very precarious situation, that jobs will turn over, that we could see long periods of joblessness and have to switch careers,” she said.
Despite that insecurity, she says her moral compass is just as important as her finances.
“I have already taken losses to switch up my mutual funds and withdraw all of my investments, to switch over to this new system I’m working on with Tim,” she said. “And that’s just something that I’m willing to do, to make sure my money is invested ethically, so I can feel like my money is not dirty.”
Excellent, ethical returns
Money decisions are by their nature very personal, but Nash is eager to point out that it’s possible to earn excellent returns with mutual funds custom-designed to appeal to ethical investors.
“What’s been really interesting during COVID is these sustainability funds have outperformed over the last year, quite significantly,” he said. “So even some of these funds that have excluded companies like Amazon and Facebook are clearly finding other companies that are just as profitable.”
Nash consults a variety of indicators, including the Morgan Stanley Capital Index, and a firm called Sustainalytics in order to find ethically acceptable options for his clients.
It may strike some as odd that companies involved in such seemingly innocuous activities such as online shopping and social media can be seen as morally offensive as cigarettes, assault rifles and pipelines. But for a growing number of investors, societal harm can take many forms, and they want to be careful not to contribute to it.

Feds should invest to meet climate goals, catalyze recovery: RBC – Investment Executive
“Making these investments now could help underpin a low-carbon transition, drawing in business investment, and complementing the government’s efforts to support jobs and economic recovery,” it said.
The government has planned emissions reductions toward the ultimate goal of net-zero emissions by 2050.
Yet, for major polluters, such as the energy sector and heavy industry (such as concrete and steel), carbon capture is technically feasible but “often seen to be cost prohibitive,” RBC noted.
Carbon capture projects “are capital intensive and high-risk during the extended construction phase,” it said, adding that this discourages private investment.
This is where government should be stepping into the breach with public funding for research, RBC suggested. Ultimately, driving down costs and developing effective technology will help the projects become more viable for private investment.
“As it lays out long-term climate plans, the federal government has an opportunity to write a new chapter in Canadian climate policy: one that acknowledges the importance of the energy sector, encourages abatement across industries, leverages investment from the private sector, and spurs innovation in sectors that contribute the most to our climate challenge,” the report said.
At the same time, government investment can help combat the long-lasting effects of the Covid-19 crisis, the report said.
“While crisis support for the economy has rightly been the government’s focus, investment in new technologies and industries can limit lasting scars from this recession,” it said.
Council varies its investment policy – Houston Today
The District of Houston has bolstered its policy of placing public monies in local financial institutions by allowing the amount to be invested to exceed othwerwise specified limits.
It means that $7.5 million in investments coming due Dec. 31 can be placed with either the Bulkley Valley Credit Union or the Royal Bank or with both and not placed elsewhere.
In a detailed presentation made to council Nov. 17, District of Houston chief administrative officer Gerald Pinchbeck, also the District’s financial officer, noted the District’s existing policy sets dollar amount limits based on a percentage of the District’s total investment account and on a percentage of the assets of the Bulkley Valley Credit Union.
The same policy also sets limits on what can be invested with the Royal Bank, the only other financial institution in the community, based on the percentage of securities within the District’s total investment portfolio.
“If there are any overages, then upon maturity the investments woud need to be made elsewhere,” he said.
The District’s investment mix includes term deposits now at the credit union which are guaranteed and senior government and corporate bonds.
In approving of the move to exceed the investment limits in the policy, council directed that the policy be brought back for a further review at a future date.
“Investments under the temporary policy variance will be made by reviewing the rates being offered, the security of the investments available, and the expected return on investment,” said Pinchbeck.
The money the District invests are not required for its current operating or capital spending obligations.
The District’s long-standing policy of placing investments with financial institutions that have a presence in the community reflects its commitment to recognize and support local businesses.
The Investment Trend That Could Send Tesla To $2 Trillion – Baystreet.ca
Hedge fund bulls say Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA) is on its way to a $2-trillion market cap after gaining 400% this year … It’s already worth 5X the combined value of giants Ford and GM, and it’s an industry disrupter that’s making millionaires out of anyone who ties-in with them.
And the auto industry disruption tie-ins are many, varied… and potentially lucrative.
From new EV startups and batteries or fuel cells …
To ride-sharing with an ESG twist and car subscription companies that are challenging our ideas of ownership.
The ideas are racking up, and the growth runway potentials are phenomenal.
EV startup NIO (NYSE:NIO) has gained over 1500% this year.
EV charging stock Blink (NYSE:BLNK) has gained 1400% YTD.
Now, mergers and consolidations are the name of this game as all the tie-ins fight for market share.
EV startup Fisker (NYSE:FSR) opted to go public, and acquired Spartan Energy (SPAQ).
Food delivery—another mobility tie-in—is in a state of all-out war for market share.
Giant Uber is acquiring rival Postmates for $2.65 billion.
Just Eat Takeaway is acquiring Grubhub for nearly $7 billion …
And the innovative outlier hoping to steal the show is Canadian Facedrive (TSX.V:FD; OTCMKTS:FDVRF), the only ride-hailing and food delivery platform that has an ESG angle with carbon-offset operations.
The Biggest Change Yet Is Coming To Transportation
As a part of the clean energy transition, the world is racing to roll out the next era of transportation: electric vehicles.
But there’s yet another disruption happening in the industry….
Not only will conventional gas-powered vehicles in time be on the chopping block…the entire concept of owning a car may be on the verge of extinction sooner than you think.
And Facedrive is among the first movers in this surprising new market.
It scooped up Steer, a subscription-based electric vehicle provider in September in a deal that included a $2-million strategic investment by energy giant Exelon’s wholly-owned subsidiary, Exelorate Enterprises, LLC.
When you combine the $5 trillion global transportation industry with an energy industry whose renewables sector is quickly growing, you’ll see a trend that is in its infancy…
But make no mistake about it – it will be a trend that upends the entire automotive sector.
This is where Facedrive’s acquisition of Steer really comes into its own.
Steer is a new all-inclusive, monthly, risk-free car subscription service that is 100% electric, plug-in and hybrid.
And it is predicting that transportation is ready for another round of evolution…
The success of subscription based ‘leasing’ models is already well documented, and this simple concept could be at the core of the next major disruption in the auto industry.
We’ve already seen it with electric bikes and scooters…
But this step could change everything.
Imagine being able to have a clean, convenient, quality-controlled electric vehicle personally delivered to you whenever you needed it….
Without the hassle of maintenance or insurance.
And it’s affordable.
Better yet, you aren’t investing in something that immediately loses its value as soon as you drive it off the lot.
It’s one answer to the last remaining hurdle of full-on adoption of EVs.
And unlike leasing a car—there’s no mileage limit.
And the growth runways are phenomenal when you consider that 70% of Steer members have never even driven an EV before. That means that these are new converts.
Anyone who couldn’t afford to ride an EV before, can now, with Steer. But it’s a diverse collection that allows users to drive pretty much any EV, hassle-free, including an Audi e-Tron or a Hyundai Kona, both new all-electric SUVs with ranges of over 250 miles.
Food: The $26B Shared Mobility Vertical
It saw where things would go wrong for Uber, which completely ignored sustainability.
It saw what would happen when studies showed that ride-hailing results in nearly 70% more pollution than whatever transportation it displaced.
Then Facedrive launched an ESG coup: The were the first to offer customers an EV option, and then to plant trees to offset their carbon footprint.
Then they applied that same “people and planet first” business model to a second vertical: Food delivery—the carbon-offset version.
Facedrive’s acquisition of Foodora from Deliver Hero positioned it near the top of Canada’s food delivery hierarchy overnight.
And Foodora’s former owner Delivery Hero is the rare food delivery company not carrying around negative reputational baggage for bullying customers and restaurants at a time when they are struggling to make ends meet. They are international giants with services in 40 countries and a portfolio of over 500,000 restaurants.
And Facedrive’s new acquisition has hit the ground running …
The new Facedrive Foods app was launched a few weeks ago, and already it’s processing 3,000 orders daily, with close to 4,000 restaurant partners and over 220,000 active users.
Next, comes international expansion ….
This Is Where Big Names Are Gathering
Exelon’s (NASDAQ:EXC) market cap is ~$41 billion … and it’s not the only huge market-cap company whose radar is pinging Facedrive: There’s also a tie-in to eCommerce King Amazon (NASDAQ:AMZN) ….
Both global e-commerce giant Amazon and Canadian Tier-1 telecoms giant Telus jumped in on Facedrive’s corporate partnership program. And that news flew right under the radar because it wasn’t officially announced and was revealed only when Facedrive released its Q1 earnings report.
That means both giants will be Corporate partners of Facedrive meaning that their employees will receive preferred rates on Facedrive products and services.
And they have …
In October, Air Canada became the next big name to jump on the Facedrive bandwagon.
With the global tourism industry facing $1 trillion in losses and on track to shed 100 million jobs before the year is out, Air Canada has signed a deal with Facedrive Inc. (TSX.V:FD; OTCMKTS:FDVRF) to launch a pilot project for its employees using TraceSCAN, Facedrive’s proprietary COVID contact-tracing technology and wearables.
So, watch the news flow on that one, too as talks progress with more big airlines …
The name of this game is ultimate impact.
Facedrive is chasing Big Money earmarked for ESG-focused plays …
At a time when the world has just hit the trillion-dollar mark in ESG fund investments.
Big capital has tons of money to put into low-risk impact investing …
But they can’t find enough places to park it.
That’s where Facedrive ticks so many boxes. Whether it’s pushing disruptors of the transportation industry from three different corners, with Facedrive ride-hailing, food delivery and transformational Steer …
Or whether it’s helping giant airlines keep track of virus contacts.
Either way, Facedrive (TSX.V:FD; OTCMKTS:FDVRF) has been ahead of the curve from day one. At this point, there’s no stopping the march of EVs, and this is the company that brings it all together in a comprehensive ESG ecosystem.
And with so many verticals, the news flow is hard to keep up with.
The Electric Vehicle Revolution Is Kicking Into High Gear
Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA) is now the most valuable car maker “of all time”. Tesla is worth almost $495 billion, while the top three American automakers–GM, Ford and Chrysler–are worth around $129 billion combined. This year alone, Tesla has risen by 460%, and is showing no signs of slowing. Especially now that the company is set to be included in the S&P 500.
There’s a reason Tesla has performed so well this year. Investors love Elon Musk’s vision. As one of the world’s most innovative car manufacturers, it has single-handedly made electric vehicles cool. Its slick design is beloved across the world. In fact, it’s almost impossible to NOT see a Tesla in cities like Hong Kong or San Francisco.
And Tesla isn’t solely an electric vehicle company, either. It’s also building its own energy business which includes revolutionary solar panels and top-tier battery technology. Clearly, its efforts are paying off, as it is without-a-doubt one of the most popular stocks on Wall Street.
Tesla’s success has also fueled a boom in other EV-related companies. Blink (NASDAQ:BLNK), for example, an electric vehicle charging company, has risen by over 1400% since the beginning of the year, and the sky is the limit for this up-and-comer. A wave of new deals, including a collaboration with EnerSys and another with Envoy Technologies to deploy electric vehicles and charging stations adds further support.
Michael D. Farkas, Founder, CEO and Executive Chairman of Blink noted, “This is an exciting collaboration with EnerSys because it combines the industry-leading technologies of our two companies to provide user-friendly, high powered, next-generation charging alternatives. We are continuously innovating our product offerings to provide more efficient and convenient charging options to the growing community of EV drivers.”
In addition to the company’s string of high-profile deals, Blink is also consistently posting promising revenues. In fact, earlier this month, the company noted that third-quarter revenue had increased by as much as 18% from the year before despite disruptions caused by the COVID-19 pandemic.
Canadian Companies Are Fueling A Sustainabilty Boom
Westport Fuel Systems (TSX:WPRT ) is a clean energy technology company that builds products to help the transportation industry reduce their carbon footprint. In particular, it provides systems for less impactful fuels, such as natural gas. In North America alone, there are over 225,000 natural gas vehicles. But that shies in comparison to the global 22.5 million natural gas vehicles globally, which means the company still has a ton of room to grow!
Boralex Inc. (TSX:BLX) is an upcoming renewable firm based in Kingsey Falls, Canada. The company’s primary energies are produced through wind, hydroelectric, thermal and solar sources and help power the homes of many people globally. Not only has it has had a great influence in the adoption of renewable electricity domestically, it’s even branching out into the United States, France and the United Kingdom. In fact, just recently, Boralex took control of a massive 209MW solar farm in California.
GreenPower Motor (TSX.V:GPV) is a thriving electric bus manufacturer based out of Vancouver. At the moment, its focus is primarily on the North American market, but its ambitions are much larger. Founded over 10 years ago, GreenPower has been on the frontlines of the electric transportation movement, with a focus on building affordable battery-electric busses and trucks.
Year-to-date, GreenPower Motor has seen its share price soar from $2.03 to $36.88. That means investors have seen 1700% gains this year alone. And with this red-hot sector only going up, GreenPower will likely continue to impress.
NFI Group (TSX:NFI) is another one of Canada’s home-grown electric vehicle pioneers producing transit busses and motorcycles. The company had a tough go at it towards the beginning of the year, but has since cut its debt and begun to address its cash flow struggles in a meaningful way. Though it remains down from January highs, NFI still offers investors a promising opportunity to capitalize on the electric vehicle boom.
In the previous months, NFI has seen an uptick in insider stock purchases which is often a sign that the board and management strongly believe in the future of the company. In addition to its increasingly positive financial reports, it is also one of the few in the business that actually pay dividends out to its investors.
Canada’s Silicon Valley is all in on the sustainability race, too. Shopify Inc (TSX:SHOP) Canada’s own e-commerce giant helps users build their own online stores. It has huge clients – everyone from Tesla to Budweiser are on board. And the company is beloved by millennial investors. In addition to its revolutionary approach on e-commerce, Shopify is playing an increasingly active role in creating a greener tomorrow. It has committed to spending at least $5 million annually to help combat climate change. It’s even making cuts throughout its own operations, decommissioning its data centers and sourcing renewable power for its buildings. Thanks the these efforts, Shopify has posted a return of 137% this year alone, and is showing no signs of slowing.

The Serby 2.0 Mock Draft is being held hostage by Kirk Cousins — he likely will land with the Broncos, Jets, Cardinals or Browns. For this mock — 1 through 15 — we’ll give him to John Elway, who is desperate for a Win Now quarterback.
In Mock 3.0, we’ll marry him to the Jets.
The Raiders and 49ers will have their draft positions decided with a coin flip.
RB Saquon Barkley, Penn State
Hue Jackson plucks this generational running back before the next franchise quarterback. The great Jim Brown applauds the pick.
QB Sam Darnold, USC
The high-character Quarterback of the Future for Pat Shurmur to learn under Eli Manning (and Davis Webb). “Dahnold and Bahkley were at the top of our draft bahd,” general manager Dave Gettleman says.
3. Jets (from Colts)
QB Josh Rosen, UCLA
Woody Johnson risks his U.K. ambassador gig because his new franchise quarterback once wore an anti-Trump cap. Indeed, the president tweets: “Jittery Josh is a Jet. Sad!” He fires Johnson and replaces him with Christian Hackenberg.
QB Josh Allen, Wyoming
Unlike Johnny Manziel, here is a franchise quarterback with prototypical size who is the answer to Cleveland’s prayers. Unless they’re wrong again.
FS-CB Minkah Fitzpatrick, Alabama
Aqib Talib is on his way out, so here’s a versatile thoroughbred for the No Fly Zone.
6. Colts (from Jets)
DE Bradley Chubb, N.C. State
New head coach Josh McDaniels gets the draft’s best pass rusher.
CB Denzel Ward, Ohio State
Brent Grimes is a free agent and will be 35 in training camp. A pass rusher is also a consideration.
LB Tremaine Edmunds, Virginia Tech
A 6-foot-5, 250-pounder who can help Leonard Floyd rush the passer and has drawn comparisons to Brian Urlacher.
DT Vita Vea, Washington
Jon Gruden will need another wide receiver, but this would be a much-needed 340-pound monster in the middle of his defense.
G Quenton Nelson, Notre Dame
A nasty, 330-pound bookend for 2016 No. 1 draft pick Joshua Barnett and new bodyguard for Jimmy Garoppolo.
QB Baker Mayfield, Oklahoma
If GM Mike Tannenbaum liked Mark Sanchez in 2009, he will love this firebrand to replace Jay Cutler … and maybe Ryan Tannehill as well.
Tackle Connor Williams, Texas
Andy Dalton has taken a beating the past two seasons because Cedric Ogbuehi and Jake Fisher have not lived up to the hype.
WR Calvin Ridley, Alabama
Terrelle Pryor was a bust with Washington, and Alex Smith needs another outside threat to go with Josh Doctson.
DE Marcus Davenport, Texas-San Antonio
A 6-5, 259-pounder who might remind new GM Brian Gutekunst and new defensive coordinator Mike Pettine of a young Julius Peppers. Clay Matthews turns 32 in May. Aaron Rodgers is upset once again that he was not consulted on this. Danica Patrick clearly needs to cheer the poor guy up.
QB Lamar Jackson, Louisville
Rookie coach Steve Wilks needs his own franchise quarterback since Carson Palmer’s retirement. No more talk about switching the kid to wide receiver, please.

Yesterday afternoon, as I was hacking up a chicken with a cleaver to make this pot of Tom Kha Gai, my mind wandered off to one of my older posts on Serious Eats on chicken massaman curry and the comments it had elicited (which I find very educational). That had led to this impromptu post.
One of the biggest culture shocks I experienced during the first few months in the United States had nothing to do with differences in terms of language (though that was — still is — a challenge), the use of symbols and figures of speech (I’d learned along the way how to handle that), or etiquette.
It was the bonelessness and skinlessness of meat dishes I noticed.
After spending the first few weeks in the US wondering what was off about meat dishes at stateside Asian restaurants, I finally figured out that it was the fact that they were almost always boneless and skinless — you know, the dishes that would have come with bones and skin in Asia, the dishes that would have required some gnawing action on my part.
Then I started noticing that at potluck parties, people didn’t respond so well to my Asian meat dishes when they were prepared and presented in the way that was appetizing to me. I learned from it. When it comes to cultural differences, there’s no right or wrong — no better or worse. You don’t judge; you acknowledge.
Thai people in general are quite comfortable with whole fish with eyes looking back at us, head-on shrimp, bone-in and skin-on pieces of chicken, whole fish cut cross-wise into steaks, etc. We’re used to filleting a fried mackerel with a spoon and a fork at the table. The crispy tail ends of grilled chickens? There’s always someone in your family who would fight with you over those. Then there’s that cousin who is fond of eating the heads of deep-fried fish or sucking the juices and tomalley out of large prawns.
We also like to cook with bone-in meat. We’re comfortable with leaving the bones in. We don’t mind eating around them. We don’t mind eating the soft cartilage and even some of the bones that have been stewed until soft or fried until crunchy. (Read Kenji Lopez-Alt’s view regarding why bones are often left in Asian meat dishes.)
Herbs and spices floating in a curry or soup? We’re fine with those too. When I see a piece of dried spice in my massaman curry, I can’t resist picking it up and sucking on it, because, man, the sauce that adheres to it is so fragrant. I love it so much I sometimes forget that people from a different culture may feel differently. And even though intellectually I’m aware of this type of cultural disparity, once in a while I’m reminded by questions and comments from my readers of how I can’t assume that the way I see/do/like things must be the way others see/do/like things.
It’s all good. Part of education.
But for what it’s worth, what you see here is how I make Tom Kha Gai* at home.
When I help my readers recreate the dish as it’s made at their favorite Thai restaurants, I take away the skin and the bones. In my own kitchen, I cut up a whole chicken with a cleaver and bring out the flavor of the bones into the broth through long, slow cooking. There’s nothing wrong with slicing friendly boneless, skinless chicken breasts into bite-sized pieces and compensating for the lack of umami with chicken broth — there’s always more than one way to do anything; it’s just not the kind of Tom Kha Gai I grew up eating or prefer.
If you’re interested in making Tom Kha Gai this way, you can give it a try. Simply cut up a whole chicken into large chunks, put the pieces in a large pot, add just enough water to cover them plus some fish sauce to flavor the chicken while it’s cooked, and let the pot simmer for 40-50 minutes, replenishing the water along the way as necessary. Then add the bruised herbs to the pot (and mushrooms, if you’re in a fungus mood), let the whole thing continue to cook and infuse for 10 minutes, add coconut cream to it, heat it gently, and take the pot off the heat. More fish sauce, if necessary, goes in at this time along with fresh lime juice, crushed fresh chilies, and cilantro leaves. (For this to make sense, consult the post on how to make Tom Kha Gai.)
The broth is full of flavor — the kind of flavor boneless, skinless chicken breast meat will never be able to give you.
Oh, and the herbs floating about in the soup? You can remove them, if they bother you. Or you can do what most Thai people do: leave them in there and eat around them.
