Recipe: grilled brie porcini and caramelized onion sandwich
There is the possibility of a freeze and light snow down on the flats Thursday night. Everyone down there is freaking out at the potential for snow. That’s what they do. They freak out. I’m kind of excited about the snow. You knew that. But I also realize that up high in the mountains where
my the huckleberries grow, it’s not only going to snow, but it’s going to be a hard freeze. Those little guys are tough, but everyone has their kryptonite. Ever since I got home this week, I’ve been squeezing hikes in to look for more huckleberries. The season wanes, but the high country still calls regardless of heavy rains, angry winds, and cold numb fingers that pluck at precious purple berries.
sun in the east and rain overhead
hiking into the wall of clouds
visiting with my high country neighbors (marmots)
Cool weather and loads of late summer rains have kept the mountain mushrooms chugging along well past their usual bedtime. I don’t go out of my way to find porcini these days because huckleberries are my priority. As my friend, Jay, said to Erin (regarding our obsession with huckleberries), “You two have a sickness.” But porcini and hucks tend to like some of the same environments and they even hang out together. When I find porcini cozily nestled among the lush huckleberry plants, it fries my brain – because there’s a porcini! But wait, are there huckleberries? But, a porcini! And I have to do a quick mental calculation as to how much time it takes to harvest and clean a porcini and then convert that to potential huckleberry volume. However, if the porcini are particularly perfect or the huckleberries are particularly absent, then I’ll pick the mushroom.
i love that signature color of our rocky mountain porcini
If I pick the mushroom, I have to be absolutely sure that I’m going to do something with it or give it to someone who is going to do something with it and who will also appreciate what they have received. So I did something with a few of the porcini – I made a grilled cheese sandwich. It’s a grilled brie, buttery pan-seared porcini, and caramelized onion sandwich. I think I went momentarily blind when I took a bite of it. Jeremy, who burns a thousand calories just checking his email, ate the rest of the sandwich with a glass of chardonnay and a big honking smile on his face. This is DECADENT comfort food.
fresh porcini, olive oil, butter, brie, bread, onions (not pictured: sea salt)
slice the onions
start sautéing the onions
Grilled cheese sandwiches are quick, easy, delicious things. This grilled cheese sandwich isn’t quick, it’s sort of easy, and it is most definitely crazy delicious. The caramelized onions require the lion’s share of the time. You can’t rush caramelized onions. I don’t care what short-cuts people claim, it takes time. Quite a bit of time… like 45 minutes to an hour. You can make them ahead which would turn the sandwich back into quick, easy, and crazy delicious. The caramelized onions should neither be underestimated nor undervalued. So start those first.
translucent and starting to brown
where i got to after an hour and called it good
When you have the onions caramelized, the pan-searing of the mushrooms will feel like warp speed – FTL for you BSG fans (you know who you are!). As with all of my porcini recipes, you can always substitute some other fresh variety of mushroom, preferably something with flavor. Everything is amazing pan-seared in butter anyway, right?
i still stand by brushing my porcini
pan-seared in luscious butter
slice your bread (if it isn’t already sliced)
Now with all of the components prepped, the assembly happens lickity-split and you begin to register just how mother-lovingly awesome this sandwich is going to be. I like matching my bread slices so they are equally sized. This isn’t much of an issue for a loaf of bread with a uniform cross-section, but for those with decreasing cross-sectional area (they get smaller toward the ends), it helps to avoid pairing a middle slice with an end slice. Bread and geometry. Also, keep the buttered sides on the outside of the sandwich. I layer the brie on the bottom of the sandwich strata because I want it to melt and be as close to the pan as possible without being on the pan. Then I set the caramelized onions on top of the brie because they will allow oozy, melty cheese up through their layer.
caramelized onions, fried mushrooms, sliced brie, butter, salt, sliced bread
bread and buttah (just butter one side)
layer brie then onions
I want the cheese to melt onto the mushrooms. Why? To prevent any of the mushroom slices from abandoning ship when you eat the sandwich. But another easy way to solve that problem is to add another layer of cheese on top of the mushrooms. I did that for the first sandwich (the one that nearly made me go blind), although the sandwich is perfectly wonderful with just the one layer of cheese.
sprinkle some sea salt over the mushroom layer
add more cheese if you want über gooeyness and extra glue to hold the mushrooms in place
fry the sandwich until each side is golden
Was the sandwich worth all of that trouble? Yes, it was. I’ll probably stick with one layer of cheese from now on out, but this sandwich is SPECIAL. The creamy, mildly stinky brie plus buttery porcini, sweet caramelized onions, and crunchy-outside-soft-inside bread really hits the spot on a cold and drizzly day. It would have been perfect with a bowl of tomato soup. I mean, it would have been MORE perfect.
grilled brie, porcini, and caramelized onion sandwich
Grilled Brie Porcini and Caramelized Onion Sandwich
3 tsps olive oil
3 medium onions, sliced 1/4-inch thick
4-6 tbsps butter (for frying the mushrooms and for buttering the bread), softened
1 lb. porcini or other fresh mushrooms, sliced 1/4-inch to 1/2-inch thick
8 slices of bread (Italian, sourdough, whatever you want that makes good grilled cheese sandwiches)
16 oz. brie cheese, sliced
Caramelize the onions: Heat the olive oil in a large sauté or frying pan over medium-high heat. When the oil is hot, add the onions. Stir to coat the onions with oil and spread them out in an even layer in the pan. Stir and spread the onions from time to time. They should soften and turn translucent. Sprinkle a little salt over the onions. Keep stirring and spreading every few minutes as they brown. You want the onions to brown, but you don’t want them to burn (which is why you stir them). If the onions are beginning to burn, reduce the heat, but let them continue to cook. My total cooking time was an hour. It takes at least 40 minutes to get a proper caramelization, so just stick with it. If the onions begin to burn again, lower the heat some more and add a little olive oil. They will start to stick and leave a fond (that brown residue) on the pan. Scrape that up (it’s full of flavor) and stir it in with the onions. Continue doing that until your onions are caramelized and dark brown.
Pan-sear the mushrooms: Melt 2 tablespoons in a sauté or frying pan over medium-high heat. Place the mushroom slices flat on the pan. Sear until golden brown on the bottoms (about 3 minutes). Flip the mushrooms and sear the other sides until golden. Add more butter as needed. Sprinkle with salt and remove from pan.
Make the sandwich: Butter one side of each slice of bread. For each sandwich, lay one slice of bread, buttered-side down. Layer brie cheese, caramelized onions, and mushroom slices on the bread. Sprinkle a little sea salt on the mushrooms to taste. Top the sandwich with another slice of bread, buttered-side up. Repeat for the rest of the sandwiches. Heat a large sauté or frying pan over medium-high heat. Set the sandwiches on the pan with the brie-side closest to the pan (mushrooms should be on top). Reduce the heat to medium-low. Cook until the brie has melted and the bottoms of the sandwiches are deep golden in color. Flip the sandwiches. Cook until the bottoms are deep golden in color. Remove from heat and serve. Makes 4 sandwiches.

Way back in 1994 actor Jean-Claude Van Damme was a fairly popular action star and Kylie Minogue was pretty much unknown here in the US. The pair starred in a live action film version of the video game Street Fighter. These days, Van Damme is all but forgotten as an actor and Minogue is one of the biggest pop stars in the world … so naturally, Van Damme is now dishing about how he bedded Minogue back in ’94 while the pair filmed Street Fighter together. It’s really weird the way he talks about this alleged affair. At first, he doesn’t seem willing to talk about it … then seconds later, he’s bragging like a 15 year old. Could it be true? Did Kylie really fall under the romantic sway of the Muscles from Brussels?
Van Damme first went to America to become an actor in 1981, after achieving professional success in karate and bodybuilding. He spoke little English, and spent years working menial jobs and performing karate kicks in front of anybody connected with the film industry. He finally landed the lead in Bloodsport, which racked up a substantial profit and made him a star. A slew of low-budget fight films followed before he scored bigger mainstream roles in Universal Soldier and Hard Target. For 1994’s abysmal videogame adaptation Street Fighter, he was paid $7m. The film was critically pounded, but it did good business – and he got to have a fling with co-star Kylie Minogue. He bristles when I bring it up. “Oh … who said that to you?” he asks, clearly forgetting the interview a few years back in which he brought it up himself. “I tell you what, you should ask her,” he says, shirking it. “She’ll have a better memory. I’m 51 years old, do you know how much I was punched in the face on The Expendables? No, no. No. And let’s just say it happened, so what? Who wants to know?” I tell him I just want to verify before printing. “Sometimes you let go of stuff … I don’t know, maybe.” He sighs, then becomes reflective. It’s rather touching. “Yes. OK. Yes, yes, yes. It happened. I was in Thailand, we had an affair. Sweet kiss, beautiful lovemaking. It would be abnormal not to have had an affair, she’s so beautiful and she was there in front of me every day with a beautiful smile, simpatico, so charming, she wasn’t acting like a big star. I knew Thailand very well, so I showed her my Thailand. She’s a great lady.”
Now, it’s entirely possible that this affair actually took place but … I dunno, he just seems so willing to begrudgingly confirm the rumored affair and then almost instantly can’t shut up while bragging about it. We all have skeletons in our closets … old hook-ups that we’d rather not remember … I’m sure that Jean-Claude Van Damme is one of Kylie’s embarrassing skeletons IF this affair actually took place. I like to think that Kylie is smarter than to fall for a married Lothario like this but hey, she was young back then so … it’s possible.
On a completely unrelated note, whenever I think about the worst movie I’ve ever seen — and I mean THE worst — I always remember Universal Soldier. It was the first movie I ever walked out on, that’s how bad it was.
As for this alleged affair, I get why he’s so proud to talk about it. Whether it’s true or not, he looks like a stud (and an asshole, tbh). It’s easy to see why he never really made it as a film superstar.


Austrian conservative priest withdraws candidacy
A priest who recently said homosexuality is a disease that could be cured has withdrawn his nomination as auxiliary bishop after facing much criticism in Austria and the Catholic church.VIENNA – An ultra-conservative Austrian priest whose recent appointment as auxiliary bishop by Pope Benedict XVI sparked controversy has withdrawn his candidacy, the Catholic news agency Kathpress said Sunday.
"In light of the hefty criticism, I have decided, after prayer and consultation with the bishop, to ask the Holy Father to withdraw my nomination as auxiliary bishop of Linz," Gerhard Maria Wagner said in a statement released to Kathpress.
The Vatican had accepted the request, Kathpress added.
Wagner's nomination two weeks ago as auxiliary bishop in the northern town of Linz - although his name was not even on the list submitted to the pope - sparked outrage in Austria, including within the Catholic Church.
No stranger to controversy, he had in the past described the Harry Potter novels as "satanism" and implied that natural disasters like the 2004 tsunami in South East Asia and Hurricane Katrina in 2005 - in which five abortion clinics were destroyed - were divine punishment.
In a recent interview, he added that homosexuality was a disease that could be cured.
Wagner's stepping down was "in the interest of the Linz diocese," Bishop Ludwig Schwarz told Kathpress Sunday.
A majority of Church leaders in Upper Austria, of which Linz is the capital, opposed Wagner's nomination, even threatening a kind of referendum to prevent him taking up the post.
Meanwhile, churches reported that a growing number of Catholics began asking to be dropped from the lists of the faithful.
Wagner's nomination came as the Vatican was already under fire for lifting the excommunication of British bishop Richard Williamson, a Holocaust denier who claims no Jews were killed in Nazi gas chambers during World War II.
In the wake of these controversies, Vienna's archbishop, Cardinal Christoph Schoenborn, called a meeting for Monday to discuss the deep crisis in the Austrian church and provide some "damage limitation".

Food and beverage companies strike back at government proposals to ban junk food advertising
Monday, November 23, 2020
Food and beverage companies have called on the Prime Minister to meet them to discuss choices for far-reaching plans to completely ban online advertising on junk food.
The Department of Health and Social Care has this month launched a six week consultation in a bid to try and understand the effects of a complete ban on junk food adverts online.
But in the letter, also signed by the Advertising Association and the British Hospitality Industry and published on social media on Sunday, leading figures in the food and beverages industry branded the proposal a 'disproportionate proposal with an impossibly short time period' for an answer.
Health campaigners welcomed the proposed ban, which is being examined for six weeks.
The letter to the Commission, signed by 800 food and beverage producers and 3,000 3,000 British brands, says that the companies were not given sufficient time to argue their case.
'Given the high volume of the critical work that food businesses face over the coming working weeks with Brexit looming, they could not provide the consultation with the resource it demands,'the letter, which was authored by the Food and Drink Federation and UK Hospitality and Advertising Federation, stated.
Researchers have estimated that the move would also reduce children's obesity by 40.000, thereby saving the UK £7.4billion in lost productivity.
The letter stated the industry shares a common goal of "gradually reducing" the obesity rate but with the ongoing coronavirus pandemic and Brexit on its horizon, was unable to respond to discussions in time.

Unfortunately, there are still incidents of biased based policing occurring across the country. As much of a national topic this has become over the years, and many departments have been sued by the Department of Justice for condoning it, it remains. An example of this was recently discussed in New Jersey by the Attorney General. In determining that there were incidents of biased based policing “in NJ, the State Police from 1999 to 2009, and more recently the Newark Police Department, which entered into an oversight agreement with the Department of Justice last year” (Sullivan, 2016). These were cases involving traffic stops of black motorists, as compared to white motorists, under the guise of drug interdiction.
Yes, I believe we control our actions and should be held accountable for them. Deciding to do something, believing it to be right or wrong, is a choice, and having an independent authority to judge those decisions, if needed, is paramount to our rights. Being judged based on the law, as compared to public opinion, elicits a sense of justice within the judicial system. In the scripture, there was a division among followers, not allowing a decisive confirmation of justice.
As much as I would like to answer with a resounding YES, I honestly cannot fully say I do. I have my beliefs which I do my best to follow. I have an open mind, and listen not only to my beliefs, but I also listen to others and try to understand theirs, and not judge those who I do not share the same sentiments. I realize I am accountable to Him for my beliefs and actions, and am comfortable in the way I am living my life. I do try to apply this to my profession, treating everyone as an equal and not being judgmental, as it is not my position to do so.
Without hesitation, I would order the downing of the airliner to prevent the death of the larger number of persons attending the game. I do not lessen the value of life of those on the airliner, but as stated, for the greater good, it leaves one with little choice. Romans 12:1 states “I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service” (KJV). We saw during the attacks on 9/11 that the outcome can be tragic, but also the outcome can be minimized as were the results of Flight 93, where the passengers took control of their destiny and prevented a larger catastrophe. They knew they were sacrificing themselves for the greater good, and I believe any person with a Biblical sense would do the same, knowing that Heaven awaits them. It is an unfortunate decision one would have to make, but the same goes for a normal citizen if there comes a time where they may have the decision of taking a life to protect themselves or another. I pray every day that when I go to work, I will not have to make that life or death decision, but I have mentally prepared myself to do just that if needed.

Key Tracks: “Ain’t Got Nobody” “Foolish Father”
Baby steps, people. Baby steps. It’s been a longtime since we’ve seen a Weezer we can trust, but we’re getting closer.
It’s no secret that Weezer fans, and fans of basic alternative radio, have suffered over the past decade. Since the excruciating “Make Believe” in 2005, Weezer has released a string of five largely terible albums. And most of them roped us in with great singles – 2005’s “Perfect Situation,” 2008’s “Pork and Beans,” 2009’s “If You’re Wondering If I Want You, I Want You To,” 2010’s “Memories.” But after a four year break (no, not some more undergrad studies), Weezer are back with an album that comes closer to revisiting their roots than they’ve seen in 12 years.
You may have heard leadoff single “Back to the Shack.” It’s honestly a pretty terrible song. Something about the weird hip-hop influence over the fuzz guitar doesn’t work, like something is just off. But the sentiment is there – an apology to fans and bandmates, from Rivers Cuomo, for years of music that didn’t sound like “My Name is Jonas” or “El Scorcho.” Indeed, Weezer go back to the basics on this album. It’s the closest thing to 90’s fuzz-rock we’ve gotten since 2002’s underappreciated “Maladroit.” And while it’s inconsistent and largely less than exciting, it’s still a nice refresh on a legacy that had become more asterisks than not.
The album deals with relationships – Cuomo’s relationships with others, women, and his father. They might be tried topics, but not for a band that’s trying to reclaim a lost sound. The last of those – Cuomo’s relationship with his father – comes through the strongest. The album’s last four tracks deal with it. “Foolish Father” is direct, but the last three songs – a trilogy – are not. “I. The Waste Land,” “II. Anonymous,” and “III. Return to Ithaka” close out the album on a big note, a booming finale of tracks that’s reminiscent of bands bigger than Weezer. Parts I and III are instrumental, but it doesn’t matter, because they hit a sound they’ve never really hit before.
Weezer also smartly give a nod to bands they’ve influenced. Bethany Cosentino, of Best Coast fame, sings on “Go Away.” And Patrick Stickles, frontman for (the best current American band) Titus Andronicus, contributes guitar on “Foolish Father.”
The 90’s garage-nerd fuzz comes back, finally, though it isn’t as strong as it used to be. This album is about on par with the Green Album – the kind of Weezer we like to hear, even if it isn’t their best work. Most of the songs aren’t that memorable, but it still makes for a good listen. Cars frontman and early Weezer producer Ric Ocasek seems to have roped the band back in, too, with his production sounding similar to the band in their heyday. It seems like we can finally say, “gone are the days of mediocre, scattershot Weezer.” “Everything Will Be Alright in the End” doesn’t have the standout songs that “Ratitude” or “the Red Album” have, but it instead offers more than just two good songs. Nearly every track on “Everything” is 90’s era garage-rock, and the only ones that aren’t are the mid-album slow jams. “Everything” isn’t going to go down among “the Blue Album” and “Pinkerton,” but it’s a serious step in the right direction, and it’s the album that we, or at least I, never thought I would hear Weezer put out anymore.

The Kaiser Family Foundation (KFF) released its annual Employer Health Benefits Survey, which provides a snapshot of health coverage in the workplace. The 2014 survey results show that annual premiums for employer-sponsored family health coverage are up 3 percent from last year, continuing a recent trend of moderate premium growth. Premiums increased more slowly over the past five years than the preceding five years (26 percent vs. 34 percent) and well below the annual double-digit increases recorded in the late 1990s and early 2000s. This year’s increase also is similar to the year-to-year rise in worker’s wages and general inflation.

Two studies by the Urban Institute show that the provisions of the Affordable Care Act (ACA) have in many cases helped to insure more parents, but have not been as successful at increasing coverage for their children. The studies found that nationally, between September 2013 and June 2014, the estimated uninsured rate for parents fell 2.4 percentage points from 16.7 percent to 14.3 percent. However, for the same time period, no statistically significant change was found in the estimated uninsured rate for children under age 17. Additionally, findings suggest that the majority of uninsured children are eligible for Medicaid or the Children’s Health Insurance Program (CHIP) but are not yet enrolled. The implications of these studies could be important as Congress considers whether to reauthorize funding for CHIP beyond 2016.

The Center for American Progress released a report proposing an approach known as the “Accountable Care States” in order to control health care costs. The model will keep costs down by giving states flexibility and incentives to control costs. A state that designates itself an Accountable Care State will be accountable for health care costs, quality of care, and access to care with sizable financial rewards for keeping overall costs low. Using Congressional Budget Office (CBO) data, the report estimates that if half of the states participate, the Accountable Care States model would yield $1.7 trillion in savings on total health care spending over 10 years.

The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) approved Pennsylvania’s waiver application to receive matching funds under the Affordable Care Act (ACA) for extending Medicaid eligibility to residents who earn up to 133 percent of the federal poverty level. Although substantially revised from the original proposal, the approved waiver creates a five-year Medicaid demonstration, entitled “Healthy Pennsylvania.” Starting in January, as many as 600,000 Pennsylvanians could be eligible for new coverage on the private market, according to Pennsylvania Governor Tom Corbett’s office..

The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) published an interim final rule which provides an alternative process for an eligible organization to provide notice of its religious objections to providing contraceptive coverage.

HHS additionally released a proposed rule which changes the definition of an eligible organization that can avail itself of an accommodation with respect to coverage of certain preventive services. These rules come in response to recent decisions against the Affordable Care Act’s (ACA) birth control mandate from multiple federal courts. HHS also released a coinciding fact sheet on the rules.

It is important to note that the spring steel pin that holds the stripper clip guide is slanted from the rear toward the front. Remove the action from the stock and tap the pin with a 3/32 drift punch until the pin can be removed from the bottom of the receiver. Rest the action on its left side and tap the clip guide from right to left out of the receiver. If you get the spring steel pin out, it should be no problem tapping out the guide. Once you have the roll pin out make sure you are tapping it in the correct direction. The clip guide drives in from the left and should be driven out from the right. Support the receiver on a block of wood and drive towards the left side. If the rifle is well supported and you don't hit anything but your driver with the hammer you shouldn't be damaging anything.

Usually ceramic tiles can be installed on all types of countertops like those made of plywood cement and lightweight aggregates. But the main thing is the application of the right backing under the tiles. The selection of sink type is also important.

Press release from SF Supervisor Gordon Mar’s office:
Board Unanimously Approves Supervisor Mar’s Deal to Fully Fund Free City College
Agreement expands support for students and college, while fully funding Free City for the next decade.
On July 16, the SF Board of Supervisors unanimously approved a package of legislation sponsored by Supervisor Gordon Mar and Mayor London Breed to fully fund the Free City College Program for the next decade. Since January, Mar had been convening stakeholders and working with the Free City Coalition, Mayor Breed, DCYF and City College leaders to negotiate a package-deal to securely fund the program.
“Free City college is the most inclusive free college tuition program in the country, giving thousands of students access to the opportunities that only education can provide,” said Mar. “I’m proud of the deal we’ve reached to fully fund Free City for the next decade, one that expands on our investments in our students and our City’s only life-long learning institution.”
The new agreement replaces and expands on the terms included in the proposed charter amendment the board voted on last December to place on the November 2019 ballot. In addition to full funding the program for the next decade, the deal includes full funding for Free City starting this fall, a year earlier than under the Charter amendment, representing an additional $8.6 million in funding for Free City this coming year. The agreement also includes an additional one-time reimbursement of $5.4 million to City College for the funding gap from the first two years of the program.
“Under this deal, Free City will continue to break down barriers to higher education for all San Francisco residents and grow enrollment in the college. And, as momentum for tuition-free and debt-free college gains steam in states and across the country, Free City will continue to set an example for the nation.”
The agreement provides City College the following annual allocations to fund the Free City College program: $15 million for fiscal year (FY) 2019-2020; $15.7 million for FY 2020-2021; $16.4 million for FY 2021-2022. For FYs 2022-2023 through 2028-29, the controller will annually adjust the funding allocation to account for changes in the consumer price index using $16.4 million as a baseline. The City will also reimburse City College $5.4 million for past costs associated with the City’s underfunding of the Free City College Program.

Although the Galaxy S23 series offers seamless camera use in a variety of situations, because of the hardware and the feature-rich camera app, one feature is still missing – the 2x zoom in portrait mode. The good news for Galaxy fans is that it is being made available soon, SamMobile reports.
Samsung has released a software update to improve the camera on the Galaxy S23, Galaxy S23+ and Galaxy S23 Ultra. The company is expected to release another major update later this month to improve low-light photography and to remove the HDR halo effect. Samsung’s camera development team reveals that it has added the 2X zoom option in the portrait mode of the Galaxy S23’s camera app.
Currently, the Galaxy S23, Galaxy S23+ and Galaxy S23 Ultra only feature 1x and 3x zoom modes in the camera app’s portrait mode. The 1x option enables portrait shots from the main camera, while the 3x option enables portrait shots from the 3x telephoto camera. But for some people, the 1x option is too wide and the 3x mode is too zoomed in. And the solution in this case is the 2x option.
Samsung is adding a 2x zoom option to the portrait camera mode that will crop the frame from the main camera. The feature will be rolled out to all Galaxy S23 series phones with the next software update, which is expected to be released later this month (May 2023). The company is expected to reveal whether this feature will appear in the Galaxy S22 series once it releases the update for the Galaxy S23. Stay tuned for details.

One of the rising stars of the Indian film and music industries, Diljit Dosanjh is steadily finding his footing and there is no slowing him down. In a recent interview, he opened up about Bollywood and his experience playing in the major league. "It's a very good place," he said. "I am not in the industry to make true friends. I already have true friends. However, I enjoy good equations with the people I have worked."
When stated that the film industry is very cut-throat, he said, "That's okay, what's bad in that? There's a guy, whose one film doesn't work, second film doesn't work, the next one too doesn't work, so the producer will think that he should work with someone else. But the actor will also think that let's try something else. It is not a bad thing to say this." He added, "The equations are the same in every industry."
On the work front, the 'Do You Know' singer will be next seen onscreen in 'Arjun Patiala', and then in 'Good News' with Kareena Kapoor Khan and Akshay Kumar. "I am very excited. All the films that I have lined up this year are in the commercial zone. In the past one or two years, I had done serious cinema. Of the films which will come next year, one or two will again be on serious subjects. This year is my commercial year."

Online movie ticketing site Fandango has named former Disney digital executive Paul Yanover to the newly created position of president.
In his new role, Yanover will lead the company's overall business strategy, focusing on significantly growing its original content across mobile, TV and online platforms, as well as expand strategic partnerships with movie studios and build on Fandango's e-commerce foundation.
He will report to Nick Lehman, president of digital for NBCUniversal Entertainment Networks & Integrated Media.
"Paul is the ideal leader to build on the incredible momentum of this business, as Fandango broadens its offerings for consumers, advertisers as well as exhibitors -- and maximizes the unique benefits of being a part of NBCUniversal," Lehman said in a statement. "His wealth of experience at the intersection of entertainment and technology will help Fandango continue to redefine the way we think about the movies."
Rick Butler, Fandango's executive vice president and general manager, will report to Yanover and continue to run the company's day-to-day operations, including managing relationships with exhibitors and other key partners.
Yanover was executive vice president and managing director of Disney Online, the entertainment and lifestyle digital product group of the Disney Interactive Media Group. In that position, he oversaw all Disney-branded strategic, creative, technical, and marketing initiatives on the Internet and mobile web, including Disney's online games, virtual worlds and streaming service Disney Movies Online. Yanover also led development of Disney's network of family-targeted sites including Family.com, FamilyFun.com, Kaboose.com, and Babyzone.com.
Fandango, the nation's leading moviegoer destination, sells tickets to nearly 20,000 screens nationwide via the Internet, smartphones, tablets and other mobile devices. The company, which has more than 41 million online and mobile visitors per month, has been beefing up its online content recently. Last week, it hired film expert and Entertainment Weekly senior writer Dave Karger as chief correspondent. Karger will contribute movie commentary on behalf of Fandango across NBCUniversal's news and entertainment properties, including Today, Access Hollywood, E! Entertainment, and local stations.


well i dont know about a 1996 but i was once a passanger in a 1993 Prelude Si non-vtec and we hit 145mph
Honda engines bought originally from the manufacturer are considered interference. However, if the pistons bought aftermarket?æhave valve reliefs in them, the Honda engine?æwould be considered non-interference.
It is a interference head.
Yes , the 2.3 liter 4 cylinder in a 1993 Ford Ranger is a non-interference engine
An interference engine ( according to the Gates website the 3.2 liter V6 in a 2001 Honda Passport is an interference engine )
It is a non interference engine.
ALL INTEGRA'S LIKE MOST HONDA ENGINES ARE INTERFERENCE
I assume you mean zero interference. If so then 2006 Honda Civic's and up are non-interference. 2005 and older are interference engine.
A 1994 Honda Prelude S would not have a VTEC engine in it (assuming it has the original engine in it). It should have the F22A1 in it which is SOHC and Non-VTEC.
It is a NON - interference engine , according to the Gates website ( they make timing belts etc. )
Honda Civics do not have a interference engine. These cars use non-interference engines which means the pistons and valve have space between each other when the engine is operational. COMPLETELY wrong. D-series motors ARE INTERFERENCE MOTORS.
not likely as the heater fan only controls the air in the cabin, maybe the radiator fan has gone out too?
The 1993 Mitsubishi Eclipse with the 1.8 liter engine is not on the list of cars with interference engines. The 1989-1998 2.0 Galant Eclipse cars were built with interference engines.
It has an interference engine. The cam belt must be changed at 90,000 miles. The VTEC engine also has a balance shaft belt that also must be changed. Non-VTEC engine does not have the balance shaft belt.
No , according to the Gates website ( they make timing belts etc. ) the 3.0 liter V6 in a 1993 Mercury Villager ( is an interference engine )
non-interference. there seems to be a lot of confusion about this. the 2.5l's are interference, the 2.2l's are non-interference.
No, all 1997 Honda engines are interference engines. The cam belt must be replaced every 105,000 miles. If the belt breaks you will have serious engine damage. 2003 and up Honda four-cylinder engines are not interference engines but the V-6 still is.
will a h23a vtech work in a 92 prelude? what extra will be needed or changed besides a chipped p28 ecu ..? I have a 92' Honda prelude s.i. with a h23a1 non vtech and im going to swap, but i need answers before i buy this engine..
The 3.5L is a non-interference.
