Design Chops

Distinctive DIY decor distinguishes five Utah dining destinations
In the competitive world of modern dining, providing great food with stellar service is a baseline requirement. But restaurants that make it, and ultimately thrive, provide more than just a place to order and eat a meal. Arbitrary, personal and the highly subjective intangibles of atmosphere, design and mood can elevate a basic repast into a must-repeat experience for patrons, whether it's at the neighborhood bar or a five-star fine dining extravaganza.
Utah design guru and real-estate agent Cody Derrick, owner of cityhomeCOLLECTIVE, thinks that those personal touches and gracious elements are what keep people coming back. "It's the small moments that create big impacts," he says. Consider the luxurious, haunting and distinctively moody vibe created in spaces he's designed, such as Pallet Bistro and Finca. Derrick also believes that those memorable details are what big corporate design teams often overlook.
Scott Hale—owner of local favorites Martine, Desert Edge Pub, Red Butte Café and Stella Grill—integrates a similar philosophy in all of the spaces he's owned and designed. When owners and chefs take a hands-on approach to the design and construction of a restaurant, "Things come out a little more idiosyncratic," he says. "It makes the space more comfortable and approachable."
Fortunately for the denizens of the Beehive State, we've got handfuls of restaurants brimming with delicious design. Some of our favorite spots are highlighted on the following pages. Not only have chefs and owners invested more than just their cash into their projects, they have brought personal elements, innovation, creativity and even some sweat equity to their spaces. "Doin' it yourself" never looked so delectable.

When Handle co-owner Melissa Gray couldn't find the perfect wallpaper for the restaurant, she made it herself. She found vintage books and painstakingly fit their pages onto the restaurant's walls, like a massive decoupage project. That's just one example of how hands-on Gray and her husband, chef Briar Handley, were when they tackled the renovation of their space in Park City. Handley took on the task of demolition with zeal: moving walls, removing four layers of flooring to expose the original cement surface and completely reconfiguring the kitchen to his exacting specifications.
From the glossy penny bar (made by one of the restaurant's food runners) at the kitchen service station to the tables hand-made by a friend, Gray's vision of "Great Expectations meets Southern clubhouse" manifests as a cozy and captivating place. Handley's mother shipped her collection of antique jars—now in service as vases at the handmade tables—from Connecticut, and Gray found old
miners' lockers for the bar's wine storage. They've incorporated architectural and accessory elements that specifically call to a sense of history and place in this old-mining-town-gone-glitzy ski mecca.

PALLET BISTRO
237 S. 400 West, SLC
EatPallet.com
Even a trip to the restroom is an adventure in good design at Pallet Bistro. It's part of restaurant designer Cody Derrick's philosophy that "nothing should jar you out of the experience" of place, which integrates seamlessly from the dining room to the restrooms. "The music, the lighting, the mood. It should all carry through," says Derrick, who envisioned the restaurant as a place where people would feel as comfortable dining alone as they would when celebrating in a big group. Co-owners Rocky Derrick (Cody's brother) and Drew Eastman helped with last-minute construction details before opening, and the moody oil paintings commissioned by artist Courtney Derrick (Rocky's wife) include Utah landscapes and historical figures like Porter Rockwell and Courtney's grandparents.
From the clerestory windows above the dining room to the original roll-down doors accessing the kitchen, the space resonates with history. In the early 1900s when the building housed the city's first dairy and creamery, this was a blue-collar part of town. Pallet has a proletarian vibe that carries through this decidedly urban upscale space, where gals in business suits sit elbow-to-elbow with guys in ripped denim. Derrick's concept integrates fabrics, color, art and architectural elements of reclaimed wood and metal, making this hot spot simultaneously hoi polloi and haute.
MARTINE CAFE
22 E. 100 South, SLC
MartineCafe.com
If you haven't been to Martine since its recent renovation, you are in for a visual and culinary treat. Owner Scott Hale and chef/owner Tom Grant closed the restaurant for seven weeks to complete a massive renovation of the historic space, with most of the construction done by their own hands. They removed drywall from the entire east wall of the dining room, exposing pale red bricks soaring two stories up to meet the original pressed metal ceiling. Hexagonal tile flooring next to the re-organized kitchen space completes the vintage feel. Hale and Grant rebuilt the banquets and seating, and only outsourced the re-upholstery and the custom cabinetry.
Hale has a long history of hands-on design of the spaces he owns, saying, "You can do the work yourself for a fraction of the cost" of hiring out the design concepts and construction. He recommends the tremendous business advantage of financing projects out-of-pocket rather than obtaining construction loans. Hale says design is one of his favorite parts of owning restaurants, and he's very proud of what they have pulled off at Martine. They should be proud. It's pretty delightful.
MARKET STREET OYSTER BAR
48 W. Market St., SLC
MarketstreetGrill.com
In 1992, Market Street's co-owner, John Williams, visited La Coupole restaurant in Paris. Inspired by murals on the dining room's columns painted by art deco masters—who had legendarily painted in trade for food and drink at La Coupole—he envisioned a similar aesthetic exchange at the Market Street Oyster Bar. Williams, along with co-owner of Gastronomy Inc. restaurant group Tom Guinney, had established a legacy of preservation and adaptive re-use of historic buildings since they renovated the landmark New York Hotel (1906) for The New Yorker restaurant in 1978. By incorporating murals by Utah artists in the Market Street Oyster Bar's design, Williams anticipated a win-win, supporting and promoting local artists while at the same time giving the historic space a modern and unique pop.
Gastronomy Inc. public-relations consultant John Becker remembers the time fondly, when famous Utah artists such as Lee Deffebach, Randy Royter, and Don Weller were working at the space. "They could paint whatever they wanted on the columns," and in return received Gastronomy Inc. gift certificates. The 13 original works are all visible at the Oyster Bar, along with additions such as a mural painted to commemorate the 2002 Winter Olympics. It's a legacy of art, community and historic preservation, all in one dynamic space.
CURRENT FISH & OYSTER
279 E. 300 South, SLC
CurrentFishAndOyster.com
One of Salt Lake City's most stunning restaurant debuts this year was the much-anticipated opening of Current Fish & Oyster. The "elegant grunge" feel created by Luna Design Studio has a decidedly hip and modern vibe. But the exposed steel girders, original high barrel ceiling and huge wood beams of the historic 1906 Ford auto dealership are visible, revealing the gorgeous bones of this beauty of a building. Luna Design Studio architect Louis Ulrich says of their concept, "We love to create a memory and find a way within our design to create that for diners." While the million-dollar project stretches the limits of what most restaurateurs could realistically handle as a DIY project, this meticulously restored space has quickly become a community favorite for design that is as tasty as the food coming out of the bustling open kitchen.

Study: At least 1 in 10 immigrant children has 'interrupted schooling'
Linda Jacobson @lrj417
More than 10% of immigrant children arriving in U.S. schools have gaps, or interruptions in attending school — a rate higher than previously found, according to a new paper published in the American Educational Research Journal.
Conducted by Stephanie Potochnick of University of Missouri–Columbia, the analysis of a cohort of almost 16,000 10th-graders from 750 schools also shows that almost two-thirds of students with interrupted schooling enter the U.S. at middle or high school age and are roughly two grade levels behind their peers in the U.S. "These mostly foreign-born teens have a sizeable content/knowledge gap to overcome in a relatively short time period," Potochnick writes.
Despite the academic challenges these students face, the research also finds that students who have missed a lot of time in school are no less engaged in school — based on behavioral measures such as absenteeism, skipping class, and getting into trouble — than those who have not experienced interruptions. The same holds true for academic engagement, such as paying attention in class and completing homework.
As immigrant children separated from families at the U.S.-Mexico border continue to be reunited with their parents or move out of detention facilities into sponsoring families' homes, it's likely that many have experienced disruption in their education. The paper provides school and district leaders with greater insight into the challenges these students — particularly adolescents — face when they enter U.S. schools.
The researcher found that while children with interrupted schooling who arrive during the elementary school years tend to catch up with their peers by 10th grade, they still face challenges graduating from high school. Those who arrive in middle or high school, however, may be motivated to learn and succeed, but they struggle the most in math and are "hindered by a complex web of English language and educational challenges," according to the paper.
While programs such as newcomer schools, summer bridge programs, and after-school and evening programs are promising, the author writes, more research is needed to develop "effective and cost-efficient solutions" that are also "rigorous and culturally responsive."

How best can Canada reduce its transportation emissions?
Live Panel Discussion
On October 4th, the Ecofiscal Commission released it's latest report, Course Correction: It's Time to Rethink Canadian Biofuel Policies. Biofuels—such as ethanol and biodiesel—are a renewable alternative to fossil fuels for vehicles. To what extent have biofuel policies helped to lower greenhouse gas emissions in the transportation sector? Are they the best way to do so given other competing technologies such as electric vehicles, compressed-natural gas engines, or hydrogen fuel cells? And what about other modes of transportation, including transit, cycling, ride sharing and—perhaps sooner than we all think—autonomous vehicles? These and more questions will be discussed during this live panel.
Chris Ragan
Chair, Canada's Ecofiscal Commission
McGill University, Department of Economics
Christopher Ragan has been teaching economics at McGill University since 1989. He is also a Research Fellow at the C.D. Howe Institute where from 2010 through 2013 he held the Institute's David Dodge Chair in Monetary Policy, and for many years was a member of the Institute's Monetary Policy Council. From January 2009 through June 2010, he was the Clifford Clark Visiting Economist at the Department of Finance in Ottawa, where he served as a senior advisor to the Minister and other senior Finance officials. During 2004-05, he served as the Special Advisor to the Governor of the Bank of Canada. Ragan is the author of Economics (formerly co-authored with Richard Lipsey), which after fourteen editions is still the most widely used introductory economics textbook in Canada. Ragan also has a regular column in The Globe and Mail. During the mid-1990s he was the founding Editor-in-Chief of World Economic Affairs. Chris Ragan received his B. A. (Honours) in economics in 1984 from the University of Victoria and his Master's degree in economics from Queen's University in 1985. He then moved to Cambridge, Massachusetts where he completed his Ph.D. in economics at M.I.T. in 1989.

Q: Google OAuth - Incorrect JSON while Validating Access Token I'm getting an access token from the Android SDK which I'm sending to the server. On the server side, I'm calling the following API to validate my token:
https://www.googleapis.com/oauth2/v1/tokeninfo?access_token=<token here>

From Google, I'm getting the following response (partial response added):
{\"statusCode\":200,\"body\":\"{n \"issued_to\":
\"407408718192.apps.googleusercontent.com\",n \"audience\":
\"407408718192.apps.googleusercontent.com\",n \"user_id\":
\"110586055381870434283\",n \"scope\":

https://www.googleapis.com/auth/plus.me"}

Unfortunately, this JSON is not parseable because of the backslashes & i'm not able to validate the token identity.
Is this a problem with the Google API or do I need to apply any regex?

A: Google sends back proper JSON without the slashes, being exactly the part that's inside the "body" element of the output that you paste (well without the slashes).
So your Node.js HTTP client is wrapping it with the HTTP status code element and puts in the slashes as well, so your clients need convert back from that on its own.

Nguyễn Lữ (; died 1787), also known by the title of Đông Định vương (東定王, "king of Eastern Conquering"), was the one of the Tây Sơn brothers who formed short-lived Tây Sơn dynasty of Vietnam.

Biography
Lữ had two brothers: Emperor Thái Đức, common name Nguyễn Nhạc; and Emperor Quang Trung, common name Nguyễn Huệ. According to Đại Nam chính biên liệt truyện, the three brothers, listed from eldest to youngest, were Nguyễn Nhạc, Nguyễn Lữ, Nguyễn Huệ; However, other source reported that he was the youngest one among Tây Sơn brothers. He had two nicknames: thầy Tư Lữ (Fourth Master Lữ ) and Đức ông Bảy (Virtuous Sir Seven).

After defeating the Nguyễn Lords and seizing Saigon in 1783 Nguyễn Lữ became king of the South, while Nguyễn Nhạc was crowned king of central Vietnam. Two generals, Đặng Văn Chân and Phạm Văn Tham, were left in Gia Định to assist him.

A civil war broke out between Nguyễn Nhạc and Nguyễn Huệ in 1787, the main forces withdrew from Gia Định, and marched north to support Nhạc. Getting the information, Nguyễn Ánh returned to Vietnam. Nguyễn Lữ was afraid, and retreated to Biên Hòa, leaving Phạm Văn Tham to defend Saigon. Ánh forged a letter from Nhạc to Lữ, and sent it to Tham. In the letter, Nhạc described Tham as an overbearing man, and ordered Lữ to kill Tham. After receiving the letter, Tham marched to Biên Hòa, with a white flag in front of the army, to justify his wrongful treatment. But the white flag was mistaken for Tham's surrender to Nguyễn lord, Nguyễn Lữ abandoned his troops and his fief, fled to Quy Nhơn and sought refuge with his elder brother Nguyễn Nhạc. Not long after he died there.

There are two ways to look at the American Indians and their penchant for opening casinos. One might say that they are betting their lives and taking matters into their own hands.
There are tens of thousands of jobs that have been created and casinos have been empowering for the tribes that have opened them.
The other side of the coin is to look at the less positive aspects of gambling and casinos. American Indians, when trying to figure out how to make money, have settled on something that has a negative perception with most people.
It is unfortunate that because so many casinos on Indian lands have sprung up across the country, a large percentage of the population will automatically associate Indians with gambling.
Admittedly there is a lack of understanding and appreciation for Native American Indians. What they gave up or had taken away from them and what they now contribute to society often gets overlooked.
It is a never ending uphill battle to get the word out and to keep awareness at an acceptable level. But all the casinos on Indian land does not help the situation.
They have backed themselves into a corner and now find themselves permanently linked to gambling and not much more. Skip to content Toggle navigation.

ISSUE 93 SUPPLEMENT
INTERVIEW: Marianne Apostolides, author of Sophrosyne
Interview of Marianne Apostolides, author of the novel Sophrosyne
Questions and introduction by Rick Meier
Marianne Apostolides's beautifully unconventional new novel Sophrosyne (BookThug, 2014) follows Aleksandros (or Alex), a philosophy student writing his senior thesis on the Socratic virtue of sophrosyne — a Greek word for which there is no suitable English translation. Alex is a handsome youth: an accomplished athlete and a promising student (he is eventually nominated for a Fulbright grant); but his personal and intellectual endeavors remain haunted by the memory of his now-absent mother, the mysterious 'you' to whom the novel is addressed: a belly-dancer whose stage name is Sophrosyne.
While the initial pulse of the book is established by Alex's need to understand his past, the second half is shaped by a new drive: Aleksandros' burgeoning relationship with Meiko, a Japanese-American student he meets in an art gallery. Through this relationship, the novel breaks open. Alex's self-enclosed thoughts are challenged by Meiko's Eastern-influenced understanding of desire, vitality, and sophrosyne. Meiko's perceptual framework quietly exists throughout the book through five works of calligraphy that precede several chapters. These works are not introduced; they simply appear in the book, silent and beautiful, urging readers to be patient — to wait for the meaning to be revealed.
Lyrical, darkly erotic, and bursting with ideas, Sophrosyne is a novel about the pursuit of wisdom itself, and the ways we reach out for understanding — motivated not always by an inborn love of truth, but by a need to exorcise dark memories and unspeakable longing.
I caught up with Marianne Apostolides on the eve of the Toronto launch of Sophrosyne to talk about some of the ideas behind the novel, the process of producing a fifth book, and her collaboration with painter/calligrapher Noriko Maeda.
I've heard Sophrosyne described as a "posthumanist novel." Can you tell us a bit about how you first became interested in posthumanism, and how those ideas found their way into the book?
A friend of mine, who's a curator of photography, first mentioned the theory to me while we took in a show at MoCCA. Photography is playing with the concept far more than fiction; even if photographers aren't labeling their work 'posthuman,' the aesthetic/ ethic is moving away from postmodernism into a new perspective of the 'human animal' and our relationship to self, society, nature and the divine (however loosely defined). My friend suggested I read Donna Haraway's recently-published book When Species Meet (University of Minnesota Press, 2007). From there, I began to read more; the theory allowed me to crystallize and comprehend some of the changes I'd already sensed within the art world — and within the 'real' world — namely: how do we define ourselves, as the human animal, in a world in which 'God' is absent, technology is omnipresent, and the global environment is in a state of collapse…. These are not the coordinates that gave rise to modernism/ postmodernism. Frankly, they're not the coordinates that gave rise to humanism, either, with our sense that mankind is above all other beast — graced by God with a conscious mind, which allows us to manipulate/ replicate laws of nature.
I need to be clear, though: this book is not didactic or dry. Hardly… It's actually an incredibly sensual exploration of a messed-up guy and his relationship to women — including his mother.
But, within those relationships, I'm also exploring the meaning of mankind in a 'posthuman' age. More specifically, I'm examining the interaction between our conscious mind and our physical appetites/ desires. Those explorations arise naturally in the novel, since Alex is an undergrad studying philosophy. Certain conversations flow smoothly into the realm of ides, especially as he talks with his thesis advisor — a guy who's a bit of a prick, and whose dry sense of humour lends some lightness to the novel.
Oh, and then there's the sex scene centered around Plato's Phaedrus, and masturbation to The Iliad, and a conversation about posthumanism conducted with a dead woman. Stuff like that.
Do you have a least favourite English definition of sophrosyne? A least favourite?
I think 'self-control' and 'temperance' would be my least favourites: 'self-control' because it seems like a moralistic denial of all desire — as if desire were inherently wrong; and 'temperance' because it's such an insipid word….
As for favourites: I like 'self-restraint,' because the word 'restraint' is inherently raunchy — containing the sense of seduction which sophrosyne must encompass. Sadly, 'self-restraint' isn't a great definition because, in true sophrosyne, desire isn't lashed as much as held within potency/ balance…. 'Rightness of mind' is the most literal translation of the Greek word, but then we arrive at the question: what is 'mind'? It certainly isn't cognition/ cogitation…. Sophrosyne shares a root with the words frantic, frenetic, and schizophrenic: these are what happens when the 'mind' is not in 'rightness.'
Have you noticed I haven't answered your question?
If you want a preferred translation, the one I like is 'self-possession': the self in possession of its self — as it relates to the body, to thought, to the external world and its own desire….
Can you tell us a little bit about why you wanted to include calligraphy in the novel?
Sure. This novel is more concerned with language/ thought — in a physical, immediate sense — than it is with plot. As a result, the reader isn't carried along on the surface of prose; instead, s/he's brought inside a viscosity/ density/ weirdness….
Poetry can do that exceedingly well, but prose lacks the tools at poetry's disposal. One of those 'tools' is the rupture of syntax. Well, I borrowed that technique, adapting it for the novel — mainly through my use of 'and' 'but' and 'because' at the start of sentences, leaving the reader to wonder where the referent of these words might be. This interruption of causality is essential to the book — and to the questions it wants to explore.
The second tool is what led me to calligraphy ….
Poets engage in visual play, using the expanse of the page. If they want, they can surround the words by blankness, allowing the language to radiate/ reverberate/ ripple. Well, novelists don't generally have that ability. We need to send forth a stream of words — tens of thousands of words relentlessly driven in straight lines across the page! Depending on what you're doing with the form called 'novel,' that can be just fine. But in a novel like Sophrosyne — one in which the reader must ride atop this monstrous, living thing called language — the text must provide a way to extend the reader's attentiveness across the words. Visual images allowed me to do that.
Although I knew I wanted to break up the text with images, I wasn't sure what those images would be, or how they'd be integrated into the narrative (…not another facile imitation of W.G. Sebald, please…). After over a year of working on the novel, I finally discovered that Alex's love interest was a Japanese woman named Meiko. Immediately, I knew she'd be a painter/ calligrapher; the visuals suddenly became organic to the story.
You write that Noriko's calligraphy "became the axis around which [Sophrosyne] took form." Can you tell us a bit more about that?
For over three years, I struggled with the structure of the book. I'd written many scenes between Alex and his mom, each of which portrayed the increasingly disturbing intensity of their relationship. The scenes had energy, but the book, as a whole, was dead — sealed inside this dark, erotic relationship. That sense of enclosure was exacerbated by the novel's main constraint: namely, that text consists of Alex's thoughts, as directed toward his mom. (I.e., the second person 'you' infuses the narrative.)
This constraint became a challenge for me, as a writer: how do I introduce a new character — giving her depth and pulse — without writing really bad, expository back-story. (…We've all seen those moments in Hollywood movies; you can almost hear the music swell….)
Anyway, the solution to this challenge was calligraphy….
I soon realize I'd precede certain chapters with a calligraphic image, inserting the artwork before Meiko is introduced as a character. Without explanation, the reader is shown beautiful works of calligraphy. S/he needs to take these images as given, trusting that their significance will become apparent, in time. Only slowly do readers realize this artwork relates to Meiko; by then, they've already come to know this woman through the works she's created.
When I toyed with that structure, the book became more balanced — not weighted so heavily toward Alex and his mom, or toward Greek philosophy/ thought. In other words, the visual language of Japanese calligraphy brought the book, as a whole, into tension with itself — not only the tension among the characters, but also among the various ways of perceiving the world.
You say that Noriko Maeda's description of mu, 無— translated as 'nothingness' — gave you a new perspective on sophrosyne. Can you tell us a little bit about that?
After contacting Noriko Maeda — asking whether she'd be willing to include her work in my book — I was invited to her home. She said we could discuss the book; I could then explain, specifically, how her calligraphy was going to be incorporated.
The problem was: I didn't have a clue how my (unruly) manuscript was going to use the works of a master calligrapher…. The book was still two years from being complete; its structure was still evading me. Or, to be more accurate, its lack of structure was mocking me…. This was a very dark time in the five-year process of writing this book….
And yet, I arrived at the home of Noriko Maeda, a world-renowned calligrapher. Somehow I had to take my place as an artist beside her. She made it easy for me; her artistic intelligence is sparkling and somewhat devilish…. Anyway, we shared a home-made lunch then got to work. I suggested several words that might be rendered as Japanese kanji/ calligraphy. Each word was taken from a fragment of Japanese philosophy — fragments which related to my all-too-vague sense of the concept sophrosyne.
As I suggested English words to translate/ depict, Noriko would wave her hand, as if swatting away a mosquito. 'No, no: that word isn't alive. I can't do anything with that word….'
Then I mentioned 'nothingness' — a prominent concept in Japanese philosophy. This got Noriko interested…. She showed me a series of paintings she'd completed several years before, all of the same kanji: mu, 無, 'nothingness.' These paintings were varied in tone, in colour, in smear, sensation…. I loved them, but 'love' is rarely the basis for the structure of a novel…. Then Noriko showed me the kanji 'nothingness' in its ancient script, before it evolved into the form it takes now. It appears as a pictograph of an old-fashioned scale — the kind in which two plates are suspended on either side of a central pole.
This, Noriko said, is the original image of nothingness: not non-ness, but potency, balance — where all is held in abundant stillness….
Once I saw such a clear depiction of the concept, I sensed the ways in which 'nothingness' and 'sophrosyne' informed each other. They are not synonymous; instead, they are a dynamic coupling.
What, if anything, has publishing your fifth book taught you about writing?
1.	Writing does not ever get easier…. And I mean ever.
2.	Writing is not sane/ healthy.
3.	Oddly linked with point #2: writing is a glorious way to structure a life….
4.	BookThug is a welcome exception to a disturbing reality in the publishing industry: namely, that publishers usually buy a 'product' — i.e., a manuscript — rather than developing a relationship with an author, as BookThug has done with me…. The gruelling experience of writing this book exposed, at various points over the past five years, how utterly I rely on the trust/ respect that BookThug has given me. My writing can take substantive risks because of it; without it, my career, this book, and my life as a writer simply wouldn't exist.

Pacific Standard Time focuses on farm-fresh ingredients and the idea of gathering.
For the chef Erling Wu-Bower, few things are better than breaking bread with friends and family and settling into a lively conversation with good food and drink. And that is the premise behind Pacific Standard Time, a California-inspired restaurant that Mr. Wu-Bower opened in April in Chicago's bustling River North neighborhood with his partner, Joshua Tilden. Their company, Underscore Hospitality, in turn, teamed up with the three owners — Donnie Madia, Paul Kahan and Terry Alexander — of One Off Hospitality, the crew behind the popular Chicago restaurants Blackbird and Avec.
The light-filled PST has midcentury modern touches like sleek brass fixtures, earth tones, light wood flooring and white tiles, evoking a homey feel. But it's a pair of wood-burning ovens that form the centerpiece of the restaurant.
Open to the dining room, one of the ovens is dedicated to fluffy pitas and rustic pizzas, the other for roasting everything from fresh fish and produce imported from California, to hearty local meats, which will become more plentiful on the menu as the weather gets colder. Nearly everything coming out of the kitchen has some sort of wood-roasted component, and that's intentional.
Start your meal with one of the fluffy-yet-crisp pita dishes, served alongside abundant ahi over green chickpea hummus, or a wood-fired eggplant with creamy whipped ribolina. Follow that with another star on the menu: Harry's Berries Strawberries. Mr. Wu-Bower found the strawberries at the Santa Monica Farmers Market — people were lining up to get them — and, after tasting one, knew he had to import them to Chicago. Served with soft stracciatella, seasonal snap peas and hazelnuts, the dish is accompanied by seeded 1979 bread, courtesy of the head baker at Publican Quality Bread, Greg Wade.
It's somewhat unusual that a California-inspired restaurant would have not one, but two sections on its menu dedicated to carbs, but Mr. Wu-Bower said that diners can't get enough of the pastas and rustic wood-fired pizzas. PST also serves dishes that are intended for two or more: whole roasted duck, roasted Slagel Farm rib-eye or the Mount Lassen trout served with a zesty, clean zhoug and, of course, pitas for sopping up the sauce or eating the fish like tacos.
The pastry chef at PST, Natalie Saben, worked at the now-closed restaurant Grace, which had three Michelin stars. Her desserts are an elegant counterpoint to a casual dinner. A chocolate tart is paired with peanut dukkah, the Egyptian spice mix, and peanut ice cream, and a slightly savory buttermilk cake is served with huckleberry sorbet, spice meringue, basil and honey ice cream.
PST follows a trend set in Chicago in the last couple of years at restaurants like Summer House Santa Monica, Bad Hunter and Ema, where the focus is on fresh produce and leaner meats, and brightly lighted rooms that bring people together.
Pacific Standard Time, 141 W Erie St., Chicago; www.pstchicago.com. An average meal for two without drinks or tip is $80.

Irish Film Review: Wildfire
9th September 2021 3 Mins Read
Michael Lee reviews Cathy Brady's tale of two reunited sisters who discover secrets from their mother's past.
Wildfire marks the feature debut of award winning director Cathy Brady. Brady's debut is a wonderfully engaging and honest drama that invites the viewer on a journey through an enigmatic family trauma. The story focuses on the torn relationship between two sisters, it's a bittersweet tale about the bonds of sisterhood. It's set on the border between north and south, and the history of violence lingers beneath the surface, like ghosts in the air. Wildfire is a visceral, and at times cathartic experience, marked by a trio of powerhouse performances by some of the country's finest talents.
Roaring waves thrash against the side of a cargo ship. Kelly watches over board, with a cold fire behind her eyes. Kelly (Nika McGuigan) is wearing dirty clothes and a backpack. As the ship docks, and Kelly goes through passport control, we discover she's been a missing person for over a year. The police ask if they can contact anybody for her, but Kelly refuses any help and leaves.
Kelly wanders through the dark of night, over the hills and through the trees, until she finds herself at the door of a quiet suburban home. She knocks on the door abruptly until a man opens it. Sean (Martin McCann) is the partner of Kelly's sister, Lauren. He looks at her with shock and awe, and invites her in, and warns her that Lauren was destroyed by her disappearance. So, when Lauren (Nora-Jane Noonen) returns from work her immediate joy turns to anger when Kelly can't explain her actions. But Lauren and Sean try to take Kelly in, and set her on a path to recovery but it's a turbulent endeavour at best.
Kelly's wild nature, and Lauren's inability to deal with the loss of their mother, strain tensions between the sisters and with Sean and Lauren's work. Both sisters begin to succumb to the wildfires within their hearts, and it's a frenetic battle between progress and destruction as they try to find the path to some salvation.
The film was shot by cinematographer Crystel Fournier, who along with Brady crafts a startling naturalistic vision of the north/south Irish border. The camera work and lighting are crafted with a simplicity and honesty which engages, but never disarms the viewer. The reality they've created has a sense of restraint that's nothing short of beautiful.
The film is marked by the high calibre of the central performance of the late Nika McGuigan who tragically died in 2019 from cancer. She brings an unsparing vitality and artistry to Kelly that's wholly authentic. Her performance is complemented by the great Nora Jane-Noonan and Martin McCann, who excels as Sean. Wildfire is an arresting drama that burns and melts with incredible performances and establishes Cathy Brady as a visionary feature director.
Wildfire is in cinemas from 3rd September 2021

Snapchat Parent Snap Valued at $24 Billion After IPO Pricing

Snap Inc. priced its initial public offering above expectations Wednesday, as investors clamored for a piece of the biggest technology IPO in the U.S. since Alibaba Group Holding Ltd. made its debut in 2014.
Snap fetched $17 a share in its offering, the company said, confirming an earlier report by The Wall Street Journal. That gives the parent of popular disappearing-message app Snapchat a market value of nearly $24 billion. It was also above the $14 to $16 a share Snap had targeted, indicating strong demand for an IPO that has captivated investors and analysts since the company confidentially filed for the offering late last year.
That bodes well for Snap shares when they start trading on the New York Stock Exchange on Thursday under the symbol "SNAP." The company is also making its public debut amid a soaring U.S. stock market, which reached a new high Wednesday. A successful debut could awaken what has been a largely dormant tech IPO market, analysts, investors and investment bankers have said.
While Uber Technologies Inc. and Airbnb Inc. are unlikely to make debuts in 2017, many of the smaller firms valued at between $1 billion and $5 billion are expected to go public this year, according to bankers and lawyers familiar with the pipeline. As of January, there were more than 150 companies valued at $1 billion or more by venture-capital firms, according to the Journal and Dow Jones VentureSource, which track such companies through their Billion Dollar Startup Club.

Venture capitalists want the market for initial public offerings to reopen in order to convert their paper gains into cash and return that money to their investors. The dearth in tech IPOs reflects, in part, public investors' reluctance to pay premiums on already rich valuations. At the same time, many big startups are remaining private with ample venture capital available to them.
"There's still a lot of money being thrown into top companies in the $2 billion to $10 billion [valuation] range, so there is no need to go public," said Jeff Richards, managing partner at GGV Capital. "It is hard for founders to turn down $100 million to $200 million on great terms."
Snap's valuation is the largest for a U.S.-listed IPO—technology company or otherwise—since Chinese e-commerce giant Alibaba, according to Dealogic. It also falls within the $20 billion to $25 billion it had been targeting earlier this year.
In the past two weeks, Snap executives traversed the U.S., plus a stop in London, to win over prospective investors. The company was pressed about growth potential for daily average users, Snap's ability to ramp up revenue per user, the founders' unusually high level of voting control, the logic behind calling itself a camera company and its plans to fight competition, according to several investors who were considering taking part in the IPO.
The recent drought of startups going public emboldened many investors who had feared missing out on a hot IPO to brush aside concerns with the Snap deal, they said.
"People love the space, and it isn't like there's a new entrant every quarter or every year even," said Sean Stiefel, portfolio manager at Navy Capital LLC, who put in an order to buy shares of the company ahead of the offering.
Snap executives took some unusual steps that could help bolster demand for the shares, people familiar with the deal said.
In a regulatory filing ahead of the IPO, the company said roughly one-quarter of its planned float of 200 million shares would be subject to a lockup of one year before that chunk could be sold.
The company planned to sell those shares to a group of existing investors, who got in before the IPO process began, people familiar with the deal said. Other investors would be locked up for less time. Such moves could damp volatility by limiting the number of short-term stockholders who can jump in and out.
In the offering, which raised $3.4 billion, about 120 million of the shares sold went to roughly 25 investment firms, according to people familiar with the offering. The 50 million shares going to the group of existing investors meant there were only about 30 million shares to be distributed among all other interested investors, the people said.
Snap's chief strategy officer, Imran Khan, has taken a major role alongside lead underwriters Morgan Stanley and Goldman Sachs Group Inc. and was helping to decide which firms would receive an allocation of the new shares, said people familiar with the deal. Such decisions are typically handled largely by the underwriters. Before Mr. Khan joined Snap, he headed internet banking at Credit Suisse Group AG , where he helped lead Alibaba's IPO.
Snap also hopes to avoid a surge in share price, some of the people said, which can be viewed as untenable and suggests the company and selling shareholders could have obtained a higher price for the shares in the offering.

Investors piled into some recent tech IPOs, including Nutanix Inc. and Twilio Inc., when they went public in 2016. That was the slowest year for U.S. tech IPOs since 2009. Nutanix's stock rose 131% in its first day of trading and remains nearly double its IPO price. Twilio's stock closed up 92% on its first day of trading at $28.79 and nearly reached $69 in the months following its IPO. It remains up more than 100% from its IPO price but is down more than 50% from its post-IPO highs.
Snap's executives and many of its underwriters met at Morgan Stanley's headquarters Wednesday afternoon to complete pricing of the shares it planned to sell in the IPO, people close to the offering said.
Snap co-founders Evan Spiegel and Bobby Murphy, as well as Mr. Khan and a number of Snap employees, were set to gather on the floor of the New York Stock Exchange to ring the iconic bell Thursday morning, according to people familiar with the offering. Trading should begin after the stock market opens.
Goldman Sachs will serve as so-called stabilization agent for the shares, people familiar with the matter said. In that role, the bank's traders will match buyers and sellers when the stock opens for trading. Should Snap shares struggle, the bank would pull levers to generate demand to stabilize the stock.

Larcidiocesi di Hohot (in latino: Archidioecesis Soeiiuenensis) è una sede metropolitana della Chiesa cattolica in Cina. Nel 1950 contava 41.932 battezzati su 1.065.775 abitanti. La sede è vacante.

Territorio
L'arcidiocesi comprende parte della regione autonoma cinese della Mongolia Interna. Essa si estende sull'intera città-prefettura di Hohhot, comprensiva di tutte le suddivisioni che ne dipendono (i distretti di Huimin, Xincheng, Yuquan e Saihan; le contee di Togtoh, Wuchuan, Horinger e Qingshuihe; e la bandiera sinistra di Tumd).

Sede arcivescovile è la città di Hohhot (in passato chiamata Suiyuan), dove si trova la cattedrale del Sacro Cuore di Gesù.

Storia
Il vicariato apostolico della Mongolia Sudoccidentale fu eretto l'11 dicembre 1883 con il breve Quo sacra missio di papa Leone XIII, ricavandone il territorio dal vicariato apostolico della Mongolia (oggi diocesi di Chongli-Xiwanzi).

Il 14 marzo 1922 assunse il nome di vicariato apostolico di Suiyuan (Hohot).

L'11 aprile 1946 il vicariato apostolico è stato elevato ad arcidiocesi metropolitana con la bolla Quotidie Nos di papa Pio XII.

Il 24 giugno 1997 fu ordinato vescovo "ufficiale" il sacerdote John Baptist Wang Xixian, deceduto il 25 maggio 2005. Gli è succeduto, dopo cinque anni di sede vacante, monsignor Paul Meng Qinglu, ordinato il 18 aprile 2010, riconosciuto dal governo, ma anche dalla Santa Sede.

In diocesi è esistito almeno un vescovo "clandestino", Joseph Li Congzhe, ordinato vescovo nel 1984 e morto il 20 giugno 2002.

Cronotassi dei vescovi

Alice Phoebe Lou drops surprise fourth album, 'Child's Play'
MusicDecember 4, 2021
Just shy of nine months after releasing her third album, 'Glow', Alice Phoebe Lou has shared a surprise follow-up titled 'Child's Play'.
Lou minted the record in ten days with drummer/keyboardist Ziv Yamin and bassist Dekel Adin. It also saw her link back up with producer David Parry, who'd also worked closely with Lou on 'Glow'. Once more, she and her collaborators holed up at Parry's Vancouver-based studio Dobro Genius, where they embraced a steadfast work ethic and old-school equipment to craft a defiantly unique record.
"The process was simple and intuitive," Lou said in a statement, "using an eight-track tape machine and allowing the very new songs to grow into themselves. We worked tirelessly on a limited schedule to bring these personal songs to life, so used to each other by now from recording 'Glow' together that even though the workload was immense, it felt easy and enjoyable, the four of us very much on the same page."
As was the case with her first three albums, Lou released 'Child's Play' independently, sharing it sans announcement on Friday (December 3). The drop came as a shock to fans not just for its lack of any teasers, but for how quickly it followed 'Glow' – that album only landed back in March, with its predecessor, 'Paper Castles', coming two years prior in 2019.
Have a listen to 'Child's Play' below, then check out the cover art and tracklisting:
1. Underworld
3. Silly
4. Me & The Moon
5. Let Me
6. If You Were Here
7. Care
8. Shake
9. End of the Road
10. Child's Play
Last December, the South African artist shared her interpretation of a then-unreleased Paul McCartney track, 'Deep Deep Feeling'. It came in the lead-up to 'McCartney III', as part of a campaign that saw a suite of selected artists from around the world interpret tracks from the record before they were officially released.

Market Value - Concrete Critical in Making Grocery More Eco-Friendly
Project totaled 3000 cubic yards of concrete.
Lighting and maintenance costs reduced by using concrete.
Pennsylvania Aggregates and Concrete Association 2014 Decorative Project of the Year - Commercial
Concrete Producer Central Builders Supply
General Contractor eci Construction
Location: Selinsgrove, PA
Founded in 1912, Weis Markets, Inc. has grown from a small neighborhood grocery store to a corporation with over 160 stores in five states with more than 18,000 associates. Along with that growth has come an increased commitment to making stores environmentallyfriendly. New locations are built with sustainable materials and state-of-the-art technologies are employed to reduce energy consumption.
One new location, store #226 in Selinsgrove, PA is a 68,740 square-foot, eco-friendly building that features advanced refrigeration climate control technologies, which reduce the store's refrigerant usage by 60% compared to conventional stores. The use of several varieties of concrete and the strategies for its application make the project even more significant.
To further reduce energy consumption, Weis needed to look beyond just the refrigeration issues.
After careful analysis, engineers determined one way to control its energy usage was to reduce the amount of lighting used throughout the store. To achieve the savings, the traditional vinyl tile floor used in stores could be replaced with a decorative concrete floor. The reflectivity of the highly-polished decorative concrete would mean fewer lights would need to be installed.
Throughout the project, a total of 973 yards of colored concrete was used for the floor, with a total of approximately 3,000 cubic yards for the entire project. A total of five placements were required to complete the floor work. Those pours alternated between darker and lighter colored concrete. Additionally, gray concrete was used for the stock rooms and office areas.
The impact of the decision to use concrete for the floors was felt on several levels. First, the concrete was sourced from a local ready-mix supplier. Central Builders Supply's plant is located less than four miles from the job site, meaning that floor tiles did not have to be shipped in from a great distance, reducing both the number of over-the-road shipments of flooring materials and the emissions associated with those trips.
In addition to reducing the lighting costs for the store, the use of concrete floors greatly reduced the amount of maintenance necessary to keep the floor clean. The liability and risk exposure for customer slips and falls was also greatly reduced because concrete floors are considerably more skid-resistant than vinyl flooring.
Concrete's versatility became so apparent that owners opted to install concrete, in favor of other materials, in additional parts of the project. For example, an exterior dining area that was originally to be constructed with brick, now features decorative stamped concrete.
For Weis Markets the decision to use concrete to make stores more environmentally friendly proved to be a recipe for success.
Concrete, It Just Makes Cents!

Which forest/conservation area/park, if I may ask? Reminds me of Eramosa Karst.

cake – What's Cookin' @ Special Collections?!
Happy Monday! For this Monday Morning Recipe post, I found something interesting (perhaps more so for what it is, rather than the contents itself, but still…). There are many ways to think of cookbooks: as a tool, as a family memoir, or as an artifact. Some books, like Aunt Caroline's Dixieland Recipes by Emma and William McKinney (1922), can be all three. This cookbook included blank pages for people to add their own recipes, as this former owner did, recording a recipe for "Hot Milk Cake." It's a gray, bordering on rainy (or soon to be rainy) morning in Blacksburg and this actually doesn't sound like a bad idea at all!

Santiago Nonualco is a municipality in La Paz department of El Salvador.

"Nonualco" means tribe of mutes ("tribo de mudos") in the native Nahuat language. There are three "Nonualcos" in the area, the other two are San Juan Nonualco and San Pedro Nonualco.

Santiago Nonualco is a relatively poor community even by El Salvadoran standards. The primary historical economic activity has been subsistence farming and the cultivation of sugar cane, providing back-breaking work for those willing to bake in the sun swinging their "corvos," curved tobacco-knife like machetes, for a couple of dollars a day. Currently there are very few employers in the area. Santiago Nonualco has a small central market, a few modest stores (tiendas), diners (comedores), bars, doctor's office, pharmacy, a couple of dentists, a small bank (casa de credito), some lawyers, and not much else. The nearest factories are located near the airport at El Pedregal, about 25 minutes away by bus.

Warrior son
Santiago Nonualco has one famous native son, one warrior. Anastasio "Indio" Aquino, gained fame leading an uprising against the Spanish in 1832-3. He led his insurgency from a cave located just north of what is now El Salvador International Airport. "La cueva de Indio Aquino" (Indio Aquino's cave) is a little-visited site located in Cerro El Tigre overlooking the Jiboa River and the airport. After a seven-month-long rebellion, Indio Aquino was captured and executed by firing squad in San Vicente.
