Char Siu Pork 1 lb.
Kalua-style chicken is slow-cooked with secret Hawaiian spices. Not too spicy with just a hint of salty, smoked taste. This healthy meal is a favorite in Hawaii.
Kalua-style means that food is cooked for long hours wrapped inside banana, ti or luau leaves. The long cooking time thoroughly saturates the pork with our special spices and guarantees that your meat will be juicy and extremely tender. It will melt in your mouth.
Turkey has never been so good... This Hawaiian-style turkey is wrapped in banana leaves and cooked very long at a low temperature. We then shred and freeze the meat and send it directly to your door step. The long cooking time insures delicate and juicy meat.
Butterfish wrapped in taro leaves.
Chicken Lau Lau - chicken and butterfish wrapped in taro leaves. Tray of 3. For a detailed description click here.

Vegetable Lau Lau - sweet potato, carrot, mushroom and string bean in taro leaves. Tray of 2. For a detailed description click here.
The Hawaiian custom is to greet each visitor to your party with a kiss on the cheek and a lei. The kukui nut is polished and shiny black in color. This gift will last a lifetime. Lei may ship separately. If you are looking for fresh flower leis, please visit Hawaii Flower Lei.
This Hawaiian speciality contains salmon, white onion, green onion and finely chopped tomato in a light, semi-spiced sauce. Lomi Salmon is best when served chilled (add ice cubes one half hour prior to serving).
If you care to make your own lau lau or squid/chicken luau dish, we ship fine luau leaves. Simply simmer leaves in coconut milk along with your choice of meats (beef, pork, chicken or seafood) for a tantalizing dish.
Poi, the staple starch of the traditional Hawaiian diet, is made from taro, an ancient root crop grown throughout the Tropics. Early Hawaiians not only used the taro plant for food, but also utilized the various parts for medicinal purposes; treating ailments ranging from insect bites and fevers to heart problems and stomach disorders. The poi you eat is pounded taro root and, yes, it is supposed to be lilac in color.
If you've ever visited the Hawaiian Islands, you're sure to remember this spicy treat. Adds a ton of flavor to your favorite chili recipe as well.

Inverness, Ness Bridge
Written by Robert Clarke - 16 Feb 2006
New Mobile Site
We have just launched a new mobile version of this site - m.trainspots. This page will use your smart device's GPS to loctate you and guide you to locations that are close to your present location.
Situated immediately north of Inverness station, this bridge, opened in 1990, carries the Far North and Kyle lines.
On 7th February 1989, after four days torrential rain, between 07:30 and 08:00 (accounts differ), flood waters, raging in the river Ness, forced the support piers for the central span of the masonry bridge to crumble. Almost immediately, the central span was swept away leaving the track lying in the water. Frantic calls were made to Scotrail at Inverness, to stop the 08:30 Kyle train.
At a press conference that same day, Scotrail announced that the British Railways Board had given the authorization to build a replacement bridge, and 14 months later, the structure seen in figure 1 is what opened. 37113 was the first loco across the bridge in revenue earning service.
During the closure period, trains started and terminated at Dingwall, with a replacement bus service to Inverness. Maintenance was carried out at temporary facilities, established at Muir of Ord station.
Railway type and traffic
Passenger diagrams are worked by 158 DMUs, with the small amount of freight being worked by DB Schenker 66s or 67s. The line north, due to its scenic nature, is popular with Railtours, and any sort of traction can be expected on these.
The location is a busy road, near to the city centre. Although the street is well lit, the best advice is to keep your wits about you. The footpath is also a cycleway, so watch out for cyclists.
As this is the highlands, it can get very cold sometimes. Dress appropriately.
Some pubs do not allow you in with football colours, so don't wear them!
Follow the road signs for the city centre, and in particular to Morrisons, or Eastgate. Once you have parked in either car park, head out to the railway station. At the station, walk along the buffer stops, and follow the signs for the bus station. Head out into the car park, and then onto the road. Turn right, and pass the car rental place on your right, and the Royal Mail building on your left. Follow the path through the subway, and then continue straight ahead onto the terraced street. Walk to the end of the street, and then, on your left, you will see a traffic island. Cross over it, and then head up the small road, and the road bridge is at the corner. The rail bridge is to your right. The road is called Grant Street.

Inverness, Ness Bridge map co-ordinates
Inverness railway station has a car park which is a pay & display located to the rear of the station. There are various Car Parks in the City Centre such as the Eastgate Centre, Safeways and the Station Car Park which is round behind the Bus Station. Follow signs for Bus Station and it is on your right hand side.
This is right near the city centre, and so is within walking distance from Inverness bus and train stations. Stagecoach route 12 does run on the road bridge from where figure 1 was taken. For times of trains and buses, visit either:
First Scotrail - For railway information
Stagecoach Bus
Citylink - Bus
Rapsons - Local bus information
There is a corner shop on the opposite bank. As you head to the location, you pass a pub. Inverness city centre is not far away.

Photographic notes
Pictures can be obtained at either end of the road bridge, but avoid using tripod equipment as the pavements are narrow, and the road is busy. The traffic noise will ruin any videos.
The speed limit is 30mph over the bridge, but trains coming into Inverness will be going slow, ready to terminate. For taking pictures, best to stand at the end of the road bridge, as the girders and fencing on the road bridge can ruin any shot, and the pavements are narrow. Figure one was taken at the city end of the bridge.

Innovation with Wisdom, the Entrepreneur's Resolution
Post author By Khary Sharpe
No Comments on Innovation with Wisdom, the Entrepreneur's Resolution
"Around here, however, we don't look backwards for very long. We keep moving forward, opening up new doors and doing new things, because we're curious… and curiosity keeps leading us down new paths."
– Walt Disney (credited in Pixar's 'Meet the Robinsons')
Based on the bright lights and glitzy gadgets coming out of the tech industry, we are now sold on the mantra of innovation. The industry has gotten us used to a new kind of scientific engineering. We wait to see if its innovators stand the test of time.
On the other hand, Thomas Edison's legacy in GE continues to advance the welfare of the world while making billions. GE's present market capitalization stands at over US$259 billion. The company now focuses on crowdsourcing innovation. So while Edison was driven by his innate curiosity, he wisely gave us innovations that made the world better. In return, he found enduring wealth and prosperity beyond his generation.
Go ahead – do something new. Make it different. Make it something we never knew we needed. But we challenge you this year to look beyond innovation. Build with wisdom that lasts.
Innovation led to Facebook. Facebook's mission is to make the world more open and connected. We think it's safe to assume that the company has succeeded in meeting its mission in a profitable way. The company now stands at a value of US$200 billion. Facebook works because people are hungry for connections that matter to them. Geography and economics made it difficult to maintain connections. When Facebook took our regular reunions digital, the world noticed. So how is the social network being used to expand connections that are important to societies?
Muhammad Yunus is changing entrepreneurship
Nobel laureate Professor Muhammad Yunus uses Facebook to help connect rich lenders and donors to the poor micropreneurs on Yunus Social Business. A social business is "a non-loss, non-dividend company dedicated entirely to achieving a social goal. In social business, the investor gets his/her investment money back over time, but never receives dividend beyond that amount."
Known as an innovator of microfinance, Professor Yunus and Grameen Bank were jointly awarded the Nobel Peace Prize in 2006, "for their efforts to create economic and social development from below." This can be categorized as wisdom beyond innovation.
Wisdom is that old fashioned word that equates to applying what you know in a meaningful way, sensitive to its impact on others. And what you know may come from your own experiences or others experiences. For the entrepreneur, persistent poverty affects his economy. Professor Yunnus saw that creating a class of micropreneurs would reduce poverty. This in turn reduces the negative impact of poverty on societies.
"I'm increasingly inclined to think that there should be some regulatory oversight, maybe at the national and international level, just to make sure that we don't do something very foolish. With artificial intelligence we're summoning the demon. You know those stories where there's the guy with the pentagram, and the holy water, and he's like — Yeah, he's sure he can control the demon? Doesn't work out."
– Elon Musk, Tesla CEO
What's the use of building something new that has a high probability of eventually destroying us? Tesla founder Elon Musk has warned against the unfettered development of artificial intelligence. But do we think of other innovations in this way? Do we consider how social media analytics could be used for evil, without the proper self-imposed oversight? Or even how we scrimp on paying our small staff because we want to expand the business at a rapid pace? Wisdom, shares an office with prudence, knowledge and discretion. So give it a seat at your desk alongside innovation.
Even GE has acknowledged that no one has a patent on new ideas. So your small business will be competing with countless others to stand out and to really matter. How are you going to do this? Is it always going to be mainly about your next product or next profit year? Or will you consider how making that innovation a reality will impact users, your staff, your children, yourself?
In 2015, resolve to build something bigger than yourself, your country or even your continent. Appoint wisdom as the craftsman at your side, upcycling your innovative ideas.
We wish you a prosperous New Year filled with many new ideas and age old wisdom.

I was sad to miss the StarCityGames.com Open Weekend in Seattle and it definitely did not disappoint. Luis Scott-Vargas showed why he is considered one of the best if not the best player in the world with two Top 8 showings and even some judges got into the fun with William Laycraft wearing the SCG Blue on Day 1 then sleeving up and piloting his Goblins build all the way to 10th place in the Legacy Open.
Stax builds have been making some noise recently showing up in greater numbers and grabbing a Top 16 spot (Alex Kenny – 11th) in Seattle. It is also worth noting that Chris Woltereck's build of Blue Land uses Smokestack out of the board so being prepared for the grinding lock out strategy is important even if you don't face a dedicated Stax deck. Counter-Top decks had a rough time of it in the first event that I split them up by Sub Archetype and Blue Land had a rough event with poster boy Chris Woltereck staying on the other coast.
Check out the Full Spreadsheet for more info.
So much for the run as the best deck; you can't claim that title while losing more than you win. With the banning of Mystical Tutor weakening the deck as of July 1st it looks like Reanimator will be falling back to Tier 1.5 until something can bring it a bit more consistency. I still expect the deck to come out in force as many people have it built and it will still be one of the most powerful decks in the format but I expect to see more weekends like Seattle where it comes up short of the 50% mark.
Once again stop playing Mono Blue Merfolk; it is just not as good as either of the alternatives. Seriously Tarmogoyf just took a big price hit with the change to Extended and now is the time to go pick up your set to upgrade your build. Merfolk is one of the decks that will take some collateral damage from the banning of Mystical Tutor. The deck historically feasts on Reanimator and Ad Nauseam which are the two decks that suffer most from the loss of the Mystical Tutor. Expect the field to become less kind to this metagame monster.
Zoo had one of the best days that we have seen at any Legacy Open. Winning almost 2/3 of its matches Zoo continues to dominate Merfolk and also managed to keep the rest of its major match-ups at or above the 50% mark. With three representatives in the Top 8 and the highest Win Percentage Zoo was a win in the finals away from the elusive Triple Crown. That said it certainly did enough to earn the title of "Best Archetype."
It is worth noting that Ad Nauseam outperformed its overall record when pitted against the most popular decks in the field winning 55% (26-21) of its matches against decks with 10 or more representatives. Ad Nauseam will be hurt pretty badly by the banning of Mystical Tutor and may need to change the ratios of some of its important cards to compensate for the loss. I expect to see a lot of people bringing Ad Nauseam to St. Louis for a last run with Mystical Tutors.
Following up its breakout performance in Philadelphia New Horizons took home the title and kept its Win Percentage over 58%. Only Zoo's spectacular day keeps it from claiming the "Best Archetype" award again. Unfortunately like Merfolk New Horizons may not be ideally situated in the post-bannings metagame. Strong match-ups with Reanimator and Ad Nauseam will hold less weight once those two decks are weakened and lose some market share.
Let's take a trip back to early this year before Ad Nauseam became the combo deck of choice; there was another combo deck going off on the tables of the StarCityGames.com Legacy Opens: Charbelcher. One of the devotees of this archetype is StarCityGames.com writer Cedric Phillips.
I feel somewhat silly calling anyone who can pull off that tie Under the Radar but here goes. If you sit down across from him at one of our Legacy Events you should expect a quick game with lots of fireworks.
Charbelcher is an extremely powerful deck that may be poised for a comeback in the post Mystical Tutor Legacy Metagame. As another deck that requires the pilot to figure out whether or not he or she can 'go off' it requires a lot of practice to play well. Mulligan decisions are very hard as you have a lot of calculations to do while figuring out it the hand has what it takes to win. This is not a deck to pick up lightly but if you are willing to put in the time it will reward you.
If you get an opportunity to talk to Cedric about his Legacy choice you will find that he has definitely put in the work and has an excellent feel for the deck. Cedric is well known for sticking with one archetype and leaning on familiarity with his weapon of choice and metagame knowledge to give him the edge rather than jumping from "Best Deck" to "Best Deck." His consistently strong finishes at the Legacy Opens speak for themselves: Indianapolis - 11th Atlanta – 18th Seattle – 21st.
As for the unbannings Illusionary Mask is a fun card but it just provides some redundancy for the StifleNought decks that are already around. That and a lot of judge headaches. While the card has received enough errata so that it finally works it is still a greatly misunderstood card. Grim Monolith is an interesting card to add back into the mix. Mono Brown or Mud has popped up from time to time and feels like it may be one or two cards away from making a big impact. Monolith is definitely the caliber of card that could fill the gap and one can't help but look toward Scars of Mirrodin in the fall expecting some additional goodies.

It's a battle of ratings between Jerry Yan and Vanness Wu
Taiwanese idol drama series Down With Love which stars two mega idols, Jerry Yan from F4 and Ella Chen from S.H.E will be making its debut on television screens this weekend. To instill some hype amongst viewers, the production team aired a special episode which consisted of trailers and exclusive interviews with the cast last Sunday.
The ratings for the special trailer episode raked in a meager 0.59% as compared to Jerry's fellow F4 band member Vanness Wu's ongoing drama series, Next Stop Happiness, which pulled in a healthy number of 7.15% in ratings.
The four members of F4 have been separately participating in various drama productions lately with Vic Zhou starring in Black & White and The Late Night of Madam Chin, Ken Zhu in the recently-concluded Momo Love, Vanness Wu in the ongoing Next Stop Happiness and Jerry Yan's soon-to-debut Down With Love.

NBACeltics

Ever since the Celtics' COVID problems and the return of Kemba Walker, the Celtics have been struggling and haven't been able to consistently win and play well together. In the Celtics first game back after the coronavirus outbreak throughout the team, the Celtics had an easy win against the Orlando Magic, 124-97 and it looked as if the Celtics didn't skip a beat. After this game was where our struggles began. We had a blowout loss to the New York Knicks in Kemba's return and we never showed any effort or passion throughout the whole game. After that, we suffered back-to-back losses vs. the 76ers, which is a team we usually do well against but really struggled against this year. On our west coast trip we did very average, going 2-3 with the wins being very close games vs. the Warriors and Clippers. We recently returned from our west coast trip and after a great game vs. the Raptors, we've lost to the Pistons and have been blown out by the Wizards.
If there is one silver lining from last night's loss to the Wizards, it's that Kemba Walker had 25 points, 7 rebounds, 2 assists, and shot 9/18 from the field. Coming into yesterday's game, Kemba had been averaging 14.0 PPG on 25% shooting from the field in his last three games. For Kemba, his stats don't tell the full story. Ever since Walker's return he's looked like a shell of his former self. Kemba's ability to explode, to blow past defenders, and finish through contact seemed to completely dwindle since his prime years in Charlotte. This being said, vs. Washington Kemba seemed like his old self again. Although the Wizards have one of the worst defenses in the league, Kemba had himself a day. Kemba was able to consistently shoot from beyond the arc, finish through traffic, and overall exposed the Wizards defense. Despite the loss, it was good to see the veteran point guard take a step in the right direction and hopefully this will transfer into games going forward.
In spite of the Celtics struggles recently, Jaylen Brown's leadership continues to be put on display and is an encouraging sight for the Celtics organization and the fans. Two years ago, after a bad loss like the one vs. Washington, the Celtics post game interviews would've been filled with bad blood, tension, and finger pointed at each other. This year however, problems are being properly addressed and any issues are kept within the locker room. After the Wizards game Jaylen Brown was asked if this was "rock bottom" for the Celtics, he replied saying "It could be, It's up to the mentality of everybody, how we come in everyday and prepare to work. If you let it be a rock bottom mentality then that's what it's gonna be." In conclusion, it's obvious the improvements are needed. Improvements could be making trades and getting another star or could just be mentally improved. My question is, would you rather have Danny Ainge go out and trade for someone like Andre Drummond, John Collins, Nikola Vucevic or Blake Griffin, or hope the Celtics chemistry improves and Marcus Smart coming back was really the problem?

For Memorial Day we went camping in Calaveras Big Trees.
We left Friday morning after Big D's awards assembly and headed to Moaning Caverns. O-dog was a little freaked out when the tour guide mentioned that a ginormous pile of human bones had been found at the bottom of the cave when they first discoved it. From then on he was very nervous about the whole thing. Miss P did great and hiked the stairs up and down nearly the whole way. Big D did great, but did admit he was trembling at the 1/2 way stop, when he looked over the edge. Our biggest regret was that we didn't take the camera in!
After the tour we headed to our campground and picked out the perfect campsite. We set up camp and it was nice to have Big D be able to help Ryan set up the tent for once. We then drove around looking for a good spot for the boys to go fishing. We eventually found a great little spot next to the creek. They were unsuccessful at the fishing part, but we had a relaxing time there. The water was so nice, I wished I had a good book and my lawn chair to sit down in the middle of the creek and soothe my tired prego feet.
The kids explored our campsite and chased squirrels.
If camping weren't so hard when your 7 months pregnant, we would be camping a lot more this summer. This weekend is the ward campout and then I'm done. Until next year..., unless Arnold closes all the State Parks. Boo!
Yikes!! is there talk of Arnold closing them? That would be horrible.
Great pictures! I'm sure you'll have tons more camping adventures in your future.
Looks like fun! You're a trooper for going while preggers!

The nights of June are very short on the northern hemisphere at moderate northern latitudes. The above view shows all the sky in June at local midnight. The constellation of Sagittarius with its asterism of the teapot is just visible above the southern horizon. Close by is the center of our milky way.


Success Creative Art Academy has graduated 72 students who have all been trained in making jewelry and other items from recycled materials.
The graduates, who live in Barnesville Estate where the school is located, were predominately women from low-income homes who got specialized training in the making of handmade bags, jewelry, footwear, and African outfit.
The school's founder and executive director, Jerome T. Wille, said the mission of the school is to break the dependency syndrome among Liberian youth by providing them life skills training that would make them productive and useful to society.
"We trained our students how to make jewelry from recycled or waste material and also provide them with some business development so they can have the proper knowledge of running a successful business.
"At the academy, we incorporate several innovative approach in order to create an enabling environment for everyone to learn. The first approach is designed around students' needs, like classes been held during the morning and afternoon sessions, to accommodate students' busy schedules.
"Secondly, students are incentivized creatively through attendance prizes, contests and business plan competitions. Moreover, students receive constant support once they leave the schools. This support is intended to guide them during the transition period from success," he said.
The school is sponsored by Love Jensen, founder of Snowflake Foundations, a local NGO that provides educational support to underprivileged children free of charge. However, a little of US$4.OO (LD$ 600) needs to be paid as registration fees.
In a brief remark, Richard Koon, Representative of District # 11, the area where the school is located, thanked the school's founder for such an initiative which will gradually reduce the high unemployment rate in the district.
"For undertaking such an initiative, you have my support. Call on me whenever you need me and I will be there to help. This is the kind of initiative we need in the district to reduce poverty," Rep. Koon said.


As a venue I worked closely with through from the launch of Resorts World Birmingham last year, and as a place I've continually followed since its inception, Robata Bar & Grill has become a bit of a fave.
Set with a view hard to beat anywhere in Brum, a panoramic setting looking out over Pendigo Lake at the NEC, the Robata Bar & Grill inside Resorts World Birmingham really is reminiscent of Resorts World's cruise-liner inspired architecture. It offers a tranquil location to enjoy tasty dishes and drinks.
Boasting a pan-Asian/Australasian fusion menu, it has a different take on the many established 'pan/Asian' restaurants in the city centre and those due to arrive this year. If Asian food really isn't your thing, then the fusion menu will definitely cater for you and the staff will be more than happy to adjust to your tastes and dietary requirements.
As a restaurant I have now frequented numerous times, I've had the pleasure of sampling A LOT of the menu. So I thought I'd offer you the Han Eats rundown on a number of dishes on the Robata menu.
So there you have it. I'd say that was a pretty thorough rundown of a menu that'll be tested to beat in a long while… If you made it all the way through this list, you'd be crazy not to go and taste it all for yourself… (disclaimer – many of these dishes sadly do not appear on the updated menu of August 2016, so sorry if you missed out).
Situated just next to the Resort's four star Genting Hotel, Robata is also the relaxed setting where hotel guests enjoy their breakfast (another tasty affair with all the goodies you desire at a hotel breakfast, good coffee AND really nice crockery).
All in all, Robata is an all round winner; a great #datenight destination, a fab family meal before a concert at the Arena, a great place to gather with the girls or catch up with a big group of friends. Right before drinks at The World Bar, Bottega Prosecco Bar, High Line or the stunning top floor Sky Bar… Or all 4!

For Christmas my wife bought me a pack of Bean Boozled candy by Jelly Belly. If you've ever seen or read the Harry Potter books, you are familiar with the concept--these are jelly beans that have a wide variety of flavors, and my "flavors" I mean completely disgusting flavors. Or awesome ones. Who knows? That's the fun.
I would like to point out that my wife CLAIMED that I needed to do this for a review, which she completely pretended to deny as soon as this video was done. To her credit, she did taste each set of jelly beans as well.
Note that the above link to Amazon is for the third series (I tried the second), because for some evil, unknowable reason they have released more horrible, horrible flavors.
