Power Word: Blog: September 2008
http://powerwordblog.blogspot.com/2008_09_01_archive.html
4 avenues for distraction. Saturday, September 27, 2008. I hate to dumb down the blog with popular video, but I think this is the neatest thing. If only I could combine these wings with an exoskeleton or something. are mechs right around the corner? Saturday, September 6, 2008. Here's a decent slap together eggplant dish. It's based on a recipe. I prefer fresh pepper to the dried, and I can do without the anise. So I leave it out. She also prefers to cut the eggplant into large flat pieces, whereas.

Power Word: Blog: February 2008
http://powerwordblog.blogspot.com/2008_02_01_archive.html
4 avenues for distraction. Friday, February 29, 2008. This is why blogs exist. I want share the fact that every time I see a wil.i.am produced video supporting Obama, I want to change sides. God, they're like Apple commercials or something. I won't sully this virtual ground of intellectual discourse and items of marginal interest by actually linking to the videos, you can find it if yourselves if you like. Dipdive or some shit. Thursday, February 28, 2008. Sid Meier/Miyamoto in Zelda mode. I can hardly r...

Power Word: Blog: October 2008

4 avenues for distraction. Friday, October 31, 2008. Playing for Change's "Stand By Me". Friday, October 24, 2008. On Stupidity and Elections. It's a common refrain, but I've been hearing it more and more of late from the American politics people at my Ph.D. program: American voters are stupid. They make poor decisions, they support parties and politicians who manifestly do not advance agendas that would help them. They elected Bush. What's the matter with Kansas, anyway?

Power Word: Blog: June 2008
http://powerwordblog.blogspot.com/2008_06_01_archive.html
4 avenues for distraction. Monday, June 2, 2008. I’m an Obama supporter, but only lately come to the game. Up until the whole gas tax thing, I was perfectly fine with either Clinton or Obama getting the nomination. But that move (and the whole combined ticket thing) solidified my sense that Clinton panders too much and is greedy for power, rather than the public good. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Clean Plate Club: Risotteria
http://cleanplateclubnyc.blogspot.com/2007/04/risotteria.html
The restaurant recommendations of an amateur foodie. May 10, 2007. This tiny West Village restaurant is always busy but always worth the wait. The risotto is yummy and served in pretty substantial portions (unless you're a linebacker, I guess). I've enjoyed the Asparagus and Saffron, the Parma Ham, Fontina and Arugula, and the Feta, Spinach and Roasted Red Peppers. Most of the items on the menu are gluten. Read more about Risotteria:. I second this recommendation! May 11, 2007 at 3:49 PM. If you do try o...

Clean Plate Club: 'inoteca
http://cleanplateclubnyc.blogspot.com/2007/04/inoteca.html
The restaurant recommendations of an amateur foodie. April 16, 2007. It's been a while since I ventured to the Lower East Side to check out this super-hip establishment, so I'm a little fuzzy on some of the details. But here's what you need to know about the food: it's essentially Italian tapas.* YUM. Read more about 'inoteca:. Time Out New York. Italian tapas (or "tapas," whatever) sounds like a delicious concept! April 19, 2007 at 2:21 PM. April 20, 2007 at 1:36 AM. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Clean Plate Club: The Bourgeois Pig

The restaurant recommendations of an amateur foodie. May 12, 2007. 122 East 7th Street. In Astoria) and no longer be accessible or good. I don't want this to happen to the Bourgeois Pig. Ever. It would break my prole little heart. After giving the matter some thought, however, it occurred to me that my blog, with its casual readership of four, is unlikely to bring about this turn of events. So sing the Pig's praises I will, and loudly. To sum: Run, don't walk, to the Bourgeois Pig. Just don't beat me...

Clean Plate Club: Resto
http://cleanplateclubnyc.blogspot.com/2007/06/resto.html
The restaurant recommendations of an amateur foodie. July 11, 2007. 111 East 29th Street. Mmmmmmm, Belgian fries. Delicious. Mmmmmmmm. Oh, hello. I didn't see you there. You're probably expecting a more, I don't know, eloquent or intelligible description of Resto than that. But really, there isn't much else to say. Except that their burger is damn tasty — I will even go so far as to say that it gives the Shake Shack. Because you're worth it. Read more about Resto:. Time Out New York. PS, delicious.).

Clean Plate Club: Joya
http://cleanplateclubnyc.blogspot.com/2007/04/joya.html
The restaurant recommendations of an amateur foodie. April 26, 2007. I went to Joya the other night with the ladies from work, and we had a tasty, so-cheap-you're-not-sure-if-they-messed-up-the-bill meal. Most of the dishes were around $7. I'm not sure whether it's just a cheap place or whether such deals are totally commonplace in Brooklyn; if the latter, I am beginning to think Brooklyn is a magical place that, however far from Inwood, deserves to be further explored. The food is not at the Sripraphai.
