Podcast Episode 155 – Nelle Nugent
http://traffic.megaphone.fm/BPNET4619764939.mp3
Nelle Nugent is one of Broadway's most prolific play Producers, and she started out as a Production Assistant.
She worked her way to the top at a time when women weren't supposed to be anywhere near the top, and she's got the stories to prove it.
But more than 50 shows later, she's also got the successes to prove why she is one of our industry's best.
I was lucky enough to get to sit down with Nelle to talk to her about some of her biggest hits (Dracula, The Gin Game, 'Night Mother, The Dresser) and how Broadway has changed since her days as a PA, as well as . . .
What can make a great play fail.
How raising money for Broadway has changed over the last fifty years.
What she did to overcome the resistance she got for being a female Producer.
The chance encounter that led her to produce Dracula and WHY it became a hit (Hint: it didn't have anything to do with what was on the page.).
When reviews matter and when they do NOT.
What we often forget is that Broadway is not that old of an industry, and people like Nelle helped lay the foundation for the work we're all doing now. We not only owe Producers like her a debt of gratitude, but if we listen closely to how they got where they are today, we might just learn how to get to where we want to be tomorrow.
Enjoy Nelle!

For many people, one of the best parts about traveling and visiting another country is the chance to try a different cuisine. Local flavor is part of what makes each country, region, or city its own unique destination. While this doesn't mean everyone is going to jump at the chance to try unusual local delicacies, most people appreciate authentic food when they travel. In fact, "foodie tourism" has become a recent trend, with people traveling exclusively for the restaurants and dining experiences they can have. But even ordinary travelers often want to know the best local dishes and places to eat when they travel.
The city of Xi'an in China is no exception to this rule. Xi'an offers plenty of dishes of all different types to try. It's also home to hundreds of restaurants and places to eat, including some areas of the city that are heavily saturated with great food options. As many travelers are surprised to find out, true Chinese cuisine, including that of Xi'an, can be quite different than the Westernized version they experience at home. It's usually far more diverse, flavorful, and authentic, representing the people, culture, heritage, and land from where it originated.
Xi'an is a city that is home to just shy of 9 million people. It is the capital of Shaanxi province, in northwestern central China. It's a popular tourist destination, and holds many tourist attractions, including the famed Terracotta Army. Over the centuries, Xi'an repeatedly served as the capital city of China under various dynasties. It retains much of that history and heritage today through the numerous cultural sites and landmarks that dot the city.
Like many of the major Chinese cities, Xi'an is a blending of old and new. 14th century structures still stand, and much of the tourism to the area is focused on the past. At the same time, Xi'an is a modern city with a modern economy, including a heavy industrial manufacturing base, a large service sector, tourism-related enterprises, and, of course, lots and lots of food options! The cuisine is enriched and made somewhat more unique due to the area's relatively large Muslim population throughout history. This influence can be seen in the ingredients and style of some of the dishes that are popular in Xi'an.
Like any major city or region in the world, Xi'an has certain elements of Chinese cuisine that are local favorites, and which it is well known for. Of course, like many things in life, "favorites" can be quite subjective. What one person considers the gold standard of local cuisine can often be despised by others. What's a tourist to do? We've pored through reviews and sought the advice of experts, to come up with our list of 10 Xi'an famous foods that travelers absolutely have to try.
This dish is widely considered to be emblematic of Xi'an. It consists of flatbread that is torn into tiny pieces (usually by the customer) and then soaked in a flavorful soup broth with rice and scallions, to which beef or lamb is added. The lamb is the traditional protein for the dish, and likely a result of the aforementioned Islamic influence on the area's cuisine. The dish is finished off with pickled sweet garlic.
The essence of Xi'an famous food, at least of the street food variety, consists of…well, pretty much anything on a wooden skewer. Analogous to kebabs/kabobs, this staple in Xi'an life can readily be found all throughout the city. Meats, vegetables, mushrooms, and more can all be found skewered, fired over coals, and served with sauces of cumin, chili peppers, peppercorns, and more. They're extremely affordable, too, often costing the equivalent of just a few US cents each.
This meat-filled sandwich is often called the Chinese hamburger. It originates from Xi'an and Shaanxi province, and is now quite popular all throughout China. It differs, of course, from the traditional Western-style hamburger. For one thing, it's much older, dating back to sometime around 200 BC. Roujiamo consists of a crispy baked leavened bread is used as the "bun," and filled with spiced, braised, and shredded meat. Spices and recipes can vary considerably from vendor to vendor. The meat can be pork, beef, or lamb. Pork is the most traditional filling, though beef is the main stand-in in Xi'an's Muslim Quarter.
A local specialty, especially during the fall season when the pomegranates are ripe, pomegranate juice seems to be sold in almost every food stand.
These aren't doughnuts like many Western tourists are used to. They are fried and crispy on the outside, but the inside is a dense and chewy texture, made of unleavened dough, of which dried persimmons are a major component. They're quite delightful, just a bit of a textural difference that can take the uninitiated by surprise.
Often served as a side dish to roujiamo, liangpi are cold rice noodles. They're cooked, and left to cool to room temperature before serving. Then, they're doused in sauce, usually something spicy with chili oil and peppers, vinegar, and garlic. It's a far cry from French fries, but very tasty, and a lot healthier, too!
Pretty much any type of hand-stretched noodle can be found in Xi'an. Wheat is a major crop in the area, and makes up many of the noodles that are popular. These particular noodles are wide and long (several feet in some cases). They are made with eggs, oil, and wheat flour, and then hand stretched before cooking. Then, they're served with vinegar, spices, vegetables, and a dash of hot oil. For a bit more money, proteins can be added, too.
Tangbao is the Xi'an version of soup dumplings. They're made with lamb or beef instead of the more traditional pork that characterizes soup dumplings in other cities. It comes with a special local sauce of vinegar and chilies.
We promise, we're not talking about French fries! Instead, the local take on fried potatoes uses small Chinese potatoes, that are fried up in a wok with chili peppers, spices, salt, sugar, and often garlic and/or scallions. In traditional Xi'an fashion, though they are served in a bowl, they come with a skewer for eating.
One of the Xi'an famous food entries that is typically a breakfast item is zenggao. Glutinous rice, kidney beans, and dates are compressed in a special device called a zeng. They sit overnight inside the zeng, effectively fusing them together into a coherent whole. When they're ready the next day, they're sweet, without being cloying, and quite filling.
By far, the most popular area of Xi'an to taste outstanding examples of Xi'an famous food is the Muslim Quarter. This area features uncountable vendor stalls, street food stands, and sit-down dining establishments. It's located in the northwestern quarter of the city. You won't find pork in the dishes here, but otherwise, the full range of local cuisine, including the fused influence of Middle Eastern and Chinese flavor, is on full display.
If you would rather skip the crowded and tourist-heavy Muslim Quarter, an alternative that many locals swear by is Yongxing Fang, a massive food court, around the middle of the eastern wall of the city. Many consider it better quality food, less crowded, and at a lower cost than in the Muslim Quarter – with a full range of options still being represented. It's also heavier on sit-down eating establishments than the Muslim Quarter, which is much more a classic "street food" section of the city.
Finally, if neither of those options are appealing to you, there are a number of restaurants and food options scattered along the major roads in the southern portion of downtown, southwest, and southeast of the Bell Tower. There are also plenty of shopping, entertainment, and lodging options in this area as well.
In addition to all of the vendor stalls and market sellers, especially common in the Muslim Quarter, there are several hundred eating establishments all around town. Many of these serve some or all of these local favorites – though for street food, there's no replacing the authentic outdoor experience. Elsewhere, there are plenty of traditional sit-down eating establishments serving up Xi'an and Shaanxi specialty cuisine, alongside broader traditional Chinese dishes. Some of the best-rated Xi'an restaurants in town are listed below. We've tried to provide a good cross-section of eatery styles and cuisine focus in a short, accessible list. But, if you need more specific information, you can always ask your Trippest tour guide for some tips on where to go!

I Love 'Science'
The most exciting phrase to hear in science, the one that heralds new discoveries, is not 'eureka!' but 'that's funny...' - Isaac Asimov
A team of US researchers at Purdue University, Indiana have built a ping-pong gun that can fire balls at supersonic speeds of more than 400 meters per second or Mach 1.2. The gun fires a ping-pong ball faster than a supersonic F-16 jet.
And the gun they built is not some hell of a machine, its just beautiful science :-)
Freaking amazing!
Super Sonic Ping Pong Ball
Praneeth Baratam, Evangelist - 7 years ago Edit
Knowing that most revolutionary inventions happened accidentally, I must say that it 'pays to play with science'.
The Question still remains: Application. All good science needs some form of application? Where do you see this fitting in?
@Nicholas - Well, not every effort in the world of science is meant to culminate in a tangible application immediately. Applications may come later depending on how someone wants to exploit this principle for something useful. But for that somebody who is in search of a solution this principle can be yet another arsenal at his disposal. Lasers were invented long before they were exploited for anything useful and today we cannot imagine communications without them.
My fear is this will become another facet of the Human sickness for killing each other in the future. Einstein never imagined that he would use his greatest accomplishments to commit some of the greatest atrocities in human history
However Ping Pong fans every where just had wet dreams about one day training with something like that.
@Nicholas - LOL. True! This principle could be used in some form of non-lethal arms that need to work with out an explosive mixture inside. On a side note, science gives us means and ways to achieve things. What we use them for is entirely up to us and the nuclear bomb apart from its debutant cruelty has averted major wars since then.
Agreed but through the means of fear, which is in of itself the definition of terrorism
You got it wrong buddy! The world din't see another major war since 1945 because of 'Mutually Assured Destruction'. In the decade after Hiroshima, almost every major power developed nuclear capability and created a state of equilibrium in Europe and beyond. No power can now risk conflict and hence the prospects of another major war are greatly reduced if not nullified. Terrorism is not war persee but a method to resist a larger more powerful group / ideology with violence.
MAD is a terrifying concept isn't it? Terrorism isnt about violence. Violence is just a means to an end. The end is a very Machiavelli goal of getting what you want through what ever means necessary, and Fear is the strongest tool one could wield
MAD is not as terrifying as it sounds. In fact conflict can only be avoided when every party knows that no one can win. Thats what every nation has aimed for in the past 6 decades. Nuclear Weapons are no longer intended to win a conflict but to avert conflict. As long as borders and different cultures exist, possibility of conflict cannot be discounted and nuclear capability is like an insurance for the nation in question. For a change fear is now playing a benevolent role in keeping peace.
But then you get the crack-head dictator with self esteem issues because he's short threatens to nuke a larger country. It only takes one moron with the their finger on the trigger and nothing to lose to kill just about every one. Yet after the cold war when the "Dismantling" began Both the United States and the Soviet Union's space programs were using the same rockets that were used to fly a radiated death bomb as to go to space, and they used uranium to power probes, yet neither went to them
contd... on either side, which would have been helpful right about now, could have saved a good buck and gotten rid of hazardous materials just like that. America is one big garbage man.
Ofcourse, even though we are on a near ideal course, there are rogue nations, greedy nations, nations toppling legitimate democratic governments for access to minerals, etc. which continue to threaten the equilibrium. Nevertheless, if we look back there is relative peace after the invention of nuclear weapons than before them.
@Nicholas - Looks like we are going off topic here... A topic about international diplomacy would be right place to discuss our ideas about these issues...
@Praveen- True, sorry about that, got a little carried away
Alistair Riddoch, Contributor - 5 years ago Edit
I want to try this. Hope I remember to get around to it one nice afternoon. seems like it would be fun. spare pop cans to blasterize aren't hard to come by.
Suggests that humans have entered and cause a new Epoch, characterized by the adverse effects Humans have had on our world.
Some Geologists are of the mind that this is nothing more than a pop culture phase, but is there more to it than that?
100 years from now would it have an effect if our future children read of the time of Humans when ignorance ran like water among our race at the beginning of the Anthropocene Epoch, where we caused mass extinctions of various species, polluted the oceans, changed the Global temperature, perhaps permanently? Would they find themselves thinking "what was wrong with these people?" as we so often find ourselves doing upon reflection of our ancestors?
There is debate as to when the Epoch would begin, would it be at the start of the Industrial Revolution? The 1800's was a critical time period for Humanity, both for technology and growth. However it is also known that our most volatile changes today in temperature and sea levels started way back when we first started burning fossil fuels.
Should we focus so much on the Anthropocene Era as the epoch of Ignorance? Why not change the focus instead to an Era of solutions?

found "the great attractor", there's continued debate about the operation of black holes. And all of this is science that post dates the invention of GHG theory and warming theory by 10-20-30 years. GHG is obsolete because we know more now. GRACE mission, COBE, BICEP2, IBEX (or IPEX or something), SDSS, open access to accumulated information about the universe.
can't totally agree. It is not clear whether the magnetic field is some kind of smoother/catcher/return system that balances out outbound emissions, in the same manner it protects us from surges of inbound. It could be the "bleed" valve that says we can''t change anything.
we have measuerd and know that there is kinetic heat loss from earth. about 3.5 kg per second on average, of atmosphere reaches escape velocity, or enough velocity to reach altitude where solar wind whisks it away. I think the delta from balance point is called hydrostatic equilibrium, but that term can definitely describe other things as well. (you have to sort through some chafe when seeking info).
venus is a super special case it is in the stronget most certain "node" of gravity around the sun. so it's rotation, energy, size, etc, have remained very stable for 3 billion years. mercury changing quickly cause it is inside that. But venus is super stable and consistent.
All the points you are talking about might have an effect on the energy budget of planet but not at the scale of GH effect. GH effect is a demonstrable and well understood effect. Why consider all the minutiae now. Lets focus on the question at hand. Greenhouse effect is real and observable. Agreed?
yes I am sure the so called "greenhouse effect" is legit.
that molecules in the air catch more outbound radiation that less spectrum visible molecules do. each in their own range of spectrum catching bands.
and do we agree that when they capture EM, the become more heated and kinetically active? and that they also have the ability to absorb heat through expansion, and that this expansion and contraction of the atmosphere happens daily anyways as we rotate under the sun?
and that there is no real good reason to believe that 10psi is 10 psi whether it is 100km think, or 101 km think, and therefor we must consider it, as well as hydrostatic euqilibrium, and spectrum overlap with water is HUGE and water MUCHLY overshadows CO2 and methane and the other GHGs.
did you want a straight, "yes I agree in the greenhouse theory", and then have to bring these points up later, and backtrack on my yes? or do you like it this way, a qualified yes??
given with due prejudice, and reservation. (cause again, the term GHG does not do the situation justice. It just does not.
@Alistair - he he. I am not trying to make you agree. Just explaining my point. We can consider your points and their effects soon after we consider mine. Now, dumping of CO2, Methane, etc. increases greenhouse effect increasing the temperatures in the short term. Agreed?
sighhh I wish I could answer with a straight yes, but I cannot. I will agree to the term greenhouse potential.if you insist on using the term greenhouse.at all. fair?
if we had to analogize and you would consider another analogy, I would more accurately and appropriately equate the earth to a frying pan on an oven set to 254, that has gas and a splatter shield above it, and is turning under and oscillating e/m field that more resembles a microwave oven than anything else.
if we make a post, is there the ability for us both to edit it??
@Alistair - Your posts are your ideas. I can comment on it and you can edit it later if you are convinced by the argument.
or instead of getting pedantic, let's stick to facts, not ambiguous terms. Let's agree we dump produce/release/dump quantities of CO2, methane, etc. The nature of their existence to be further explored and determined.
shall we start a post on Climate Change then, and build a discussion together.?? start with an index of forcings to co-relate against realized temperature. build instead of measure and theorize. Get to where we "know that we know what we know and don't disagree". Define the sandbox we are playing in. big picture first, work our way down to the details that are in contention. See if the big picture identifies andything that makes the details less significant in the grand scheme of things??
You have a unique perspective to this situation. Lets finish of my argument here and you can create a post discussing your model of climate change. It will be very useful if you can quantify the forcings (not quote) you want to highlight. All I want to sensitize you to is - while the effect of GHGs can be seen as small it can kickstart many feed forward loops that may amplify the effects and cause much more damage than anticipated.
yes I understand one of the initial fears was the "spiralling feedback loop". A few of the potential fears we had were unfounded. And the situation is shown it can correct itself quite easily and not end up spiralling. the changing of the tune to a heating staircase, because 98% of the predictions or 97% of the consensus scientist have failed to predict diddly squat.
OK, Let's allow and proceed with the term GHG, and then well kick the crap out of it later.
http://goo.gl/7xanZr - If you see this graph. Earth's temperature cools slowly (glaciation) but raises rapidly. With rising temperatures additional CO2 is released into the atmosphere from somewhere that helps maintain the higher temperature. Its also really abrupt. There should be some feed forward mechanism in action there.
The ice age/glaciation cycle conforms pretty well to milankovich, I believe. do you?
Let me get back to you on this. I need to read and assimilate some information before making a comment.
from the graph you propose and that I agree is at least valid enough for use by us for these purposes, would you agree that there are many instances where the red line (carbon), lags behind the blue line (temp), so as to suggest temperature drives carbon? (as confirmed by current observation)
so from where the belief that carbon is a leader, I am 100% unclear. It seems much more likely it is co-related, and follows temperature/life mass.
fair enough. I started a post called climate theory. PLEASE feel free to "splice into it" at your will. It will be easier to build one cohesive, sequential discussion, than play chat in the comments.
we can list agreed facts, agreed theories, agreed points of contention and there likelihood, potential impact, and agreed margin of error range in our disjointed belief.
CO2 is a greenhouse gas. But it need not be the culprit every time. In the said graph CO2 lags for the same reason. Something else is driving the change and CO2 system on earth is playing its part. That again does not mean that CO2 cannot start the change. Its just that in the studied events CO2 did not lead the change.
Great! You started a Topic! :-) We can discuss each forcing individually, debate its workings and magnitude of influence on the climate of earth. Someday may be we will throw enough light on the issue that a learned opinion can be formed about it. :-)

Washington Monthly | How Long in Iraq?
Secretary of State Colin L. Powell said today that "significant numbers" of U.S. troops would continue fighting in Iraq for at least another year.
Against a backdrop of continuing carnage, The Independent has learned a cross-party group of MPs has returned from Iraq convinced British troops may have to be deployed there for at least another 10 years.
Powell is obviously lowballing: 10 to 15 years sounds about right to me. After all, NATO continues to keep 20,000 peacekeeping troops in Kosovo, nearly half the number we started with five years ago. What's more, even that reduced number amounts to about one soldier per 100 people, a higher troop concentration than we've ever had in Iraq.
So: 150,000 troops in Iraq for 10-15 years? With losses of 1,000 soldiers a year because that's not enough boots on the ground to do the job? This is the calculus that persuades me we need to figure out a way to pull out of Iraq ? although I agree with conservatives that doing so would do considerable damage to U.S. prestige.
Even war enthusiasts ought to agree that you either fight a war to win or you don't fight at all, and the Bush administration has made it clear they're not willing to take the political risk needed to increase troop strength enough to put down the insurgency and stabilize Iraq, a step that everyone agrees is a precondition for democracy. Don Rumsfeld won't do it because he wants to prove he was right all along about using a small, light force, and George Bush won't do it because George Bush never changes his mind ? ever.


We wanted to use natural egg substitutes while Lisa was pregnant, and then for Amelia's first few years, because of potential allergy concerns. I'd been highly allergic to a number of foods while a child, so we wanted to play it safe with Amelia.
We found that many recipes simply don't need the eggs. Experimenting is best to find which ones work and which don't. Try a recipe without eggs, and see what happens. If it turns out too crumbly, then it needed an egg to hold the other ingredients together, and you can use one of the following natural egg substitutes.
A substitute that works well is to take 1 tablespoon of ground up flax seed, 1 tablespoon of water, mix them together and let them sit for a few minutes. Then use the mixture as you would a single large egg in a recipe.
This not only helps to hold the other ingredients together, but the ground up flax seed has great health benefits too.
Our muffin recipe is especially good using flax seed as a natural egg substitute.
We've also found that while you can make traditional cake recipes using flax seed as a substitute for eggs, they turn out less light and fluffy and more crumbly, so great care is needed when handling and icing them.
Some recipes use eggs mostly for moisture. In those recipes, applesauce can be used as a substitute for eggs. You want to be very careful to not get too much applesauce, though, as that changes the entire consistency of what you're baking.
A good conversion to try is 1/4 cup of applesauce to replace 1 large egg.
You can use applesauce instead of flax seed in our muffin recipe, but we find that the flax seed gives the muffins a better texture and flavor. If you can't use the flax seed, though, try applesauce in them.
And some recipes simply don't work well with applesauce, so be prepared to experiment a bit. In particular, anything that is intended to turn out crisp, like a cutout cookie, will not work well with applesauce (the cookies turn out very moist and cakey instead).
Pancakes work okay with applesauce, but will be more crumbly than with eggs.
Puddings require eggs to make them thick. The substitutes we've talked about so far won't work for puddings.
You can use tofu of an appropriate consistency to thicken pudding, but tofu does change the taste of the pudding.
Try using 1/4 cup of extra soft tofu for 1 large egg.
We do have a number of recipes that work just fine without eggs on the site. Our meatloaf recipe uses chopped or ground veggies as a moistening agent rather than eggs.

The Bandshees of Inisherin trailer reunites Colin Farrell, Brendan Gleeson, and Martin McDonagh for another darkly funny comedy
By Lauren Milici
The trailer for The Banshees of Inisherin is here – and it sees Colin Farrell and Brendan Gleeson reunite with In Bruges writer/director Martin McDonagh for the filmmaker's first movie since Three Billboards .
Set against the backdrop of the Irish Civil War, the comedy-drama centers on two lifelong friends Padraic (Farrell) and Colm (Gleeson) who find themselves in an uncomfortable situation when Colm no longer wants to be friends.
"You didn't do anything to me," Colm says in the trailer. "I just don't like you anymore." We see Padraic struggle to accept that his best friend doesn't want him around anymore – to the point where Colm threatens to cut off one finger for every time Padaric attempts to speak to him again. The film also stars Kerry Condon (who recently played Stacey Ehrmantraut in Better Call Saul) as Padraic's wife Siobhan and Barry Keoghan (who broke the internet earlier this year with a deleted scene of his portrayal of the Joker to Robert Pattinson's Batman) as his son Dominic.
Back in 2008, Farrell and Gleeson starred in McDonagh's Oscar-nominated black comedy In Bruges. The movie starred Farrell as a hit man named Ray with Gleeson as his mentor Ken. Both actors received Golden Globe nominations for Best Actor – Motion Picture Musical or Comedy, with Farrell taking home the gold. McDonagh took home the BAFTA Award for Best Original Screenplay.
The Banshees of Inisherin will make its world debut on September 4, 2022 at the Venice Film Festival. It's set for a US theatrical release on October 21. For more, check out our list of the most exciting upcoming movies in 2022 and beyond.

YOU GUYS! It was a little bit of an insanely busy weekend for us; however, we are surviving and I think we are way better off! I am so so SO happy to share this precious Vietnamese & Christian infused wedding with you! Christina & Dan are some of the kindest people we have met and it makes us a little sad they live so far away; however, we will definitely be thinking of every reason in the book to visit them in Washington D.C for an anniversary session soon. We met them over the phone back in the Winter and Dan had explained to us their sweet dreams and wants for their wedding day. We knew they were one of a kind when we found out he and his family are from Australia - SO COOL - & that they just so happened to meet through family members. WAM BAM BOOM - Here they are more in love than ever & so excited to do life together!
Of course no wedding goes off without one or two hiccups; however, I think us along with every guest, family member, venue person were keeping our fingers are toes crossed for no rain. Although we barely scraped by it managed to not actually rain until later in the evening right before the Firework exit - ALSO, SO COOL!
It was so wonderful to be a part of such a special and unique day! This was a first to us and it was a pleasure to watch how the day unfolds within a different culture. We love that Christina stuck to the roots of her family, but also showed the other big side of her which is a big white wedding dress! She looked beautiful and the horse & carriage was just what this lady needed to top off her fairytale wedding day! This day had just about everything ... From 4 Lion Dances to a married ice sculpture & even the debut of a watermelon sculpture of a Kangaroo (Australia, DUH!) & a magnolia flower (Joanna Gaines would be proud) We can't think of one thing that was missed. It was a wonderful day and an even better experience! We couldn't think of a better way end a packed wedding weekend!
That was a fairy tale wedding!


Having many small grooves; furrowed.
From Latin scrobiculus (small planting hole), diminutive of scrobis (trench). Ultimately from the Indo-European root sker- (to cut), which is also the source of skirt, curt, screw, shard, shears, carnage, carnivorous, carnation, sharp, and scrape. Earliest documented use: 1806.
"The stalk is scrobiculate and at first slightly sticky."

Chris has already reported this over at SOA Tips'n'Tricks: a new Redbook in the Patterns for e-business series is SOA Design using WebSphere Message Broker and WebSphere ESB (I notice that WebSphere DataPower also gets a chapter or two). I'm fortunate enough to work in the same team as one of the authors, Kim Clark – one of the worldwide experts on SOA design and implementation. The book is currently in draft, but I'll be checking it out anyway.
If you are familiar with WebSphere Application Server then you will no doubt know that the Handbooks are some of the key books to read. There's now also a WebSphere Service Registry and Repository Handbook, and I'm sure this is going to be just as valuable as the other handbooks we publish.

This is just a sprinkling of what you can find in Hongdae, near Hongik University, as far as the street art goes. But, good god, it was a fantastic day to be there last Wednesday during the Lunar New Year! Very little in the way of "crowds" and most of the stores were still open. We had to hunt for a restaurant because many were closed but we got lucky on that end as well. I really just wanted to be out in the sun, taking pictures of all things colorful and spray paint filled.
There is some real talent in those cans.
And there is a lot more to take in, so head down there in the morning sometime before the waves of people buying cheap clothes and jewelry crush you under their brand new shoes. This trip really geared me up for spring and jacket wearing weather. Come on, April!
One of the ways you can get to the rows of street art is by taking Exit 5, Hongik University Station, Line 2. But, you should also be able to take 4 as well.
Directions: From Hongik University Station, Line 2, Green Line: get off at Exit 4 or 5 and just start walking around. Time depends on how long you want to walk around.
