Austin Hot Sauce Festival
2008-06-10 07:32:00 With almost two decades under its belt, the Austin Hot Sauce Festival is a time-honored tradition featuring some of the most defining characteristics of life in Austin: hot sauce, hot weather, live music, great food and a fantastic way to give back to the community. A major fundraiser for the Capital Area Food Bank, the festival boasts free admission, with a donation of three healthy, non-perishable food items or a cash donation to the Capital Area Food Bank of Texas. Always held in late summer, the weather is guaranteed to rival the sauces in hotness, but this popular event consistently draws more than 15,000 spectators to Waterloo Park in downtown Austin - this amounts to a sizeable donation to one of the most community-centric and necessary non-profits in town. The heart of the festival is the hot sauce competition. The contest, with separate judging for individuals, restaurants, and commercial bottlers, is divided into three categories: red, green, and specialty variety. The f...

Duan Wu Jie - the Chang Festival
2008-06-07 18:04:00 Today is Duan Wu Jie, the fifth day of the fifth month according to the lunar calendar. This day is set aside to commemorate the death of a famous Chinese patriotic poet and Prime Minister Qu Yuan who committed suicide at Milo River in China. Feeling very sad, he ended his life because his suggestions to improve the state economically, politically and defence-wise were rejected by the Emperor resulting in a war. On this day, the Chinese will prepare zhong zi or chang in Hokkien, a type of food made of glutinous rice with fillings such as mushrooms, meat, nuts and so on. Initially the aim was to throw this food into the river so that it would be eaten by the fish so that they would not eat the body of Qu Yuan. The photo below shows the traditional chang as prepared by my mother-in-law. We were given some to satisfy our palates. You should taste one of them as it is really delicious.Typical 'chang' (rice dumpling)

The Copenhagen Distortion Festival 2008 in Norrebro...a few pics
2008-06-06 19:14:00 Like there was a choice whether to join or not. When your flat lies just around the corner from the heart of the action, as does the flat of yours truly, you may as well embace the action and join in. So last night the Distortion Festival was as loud and rowdy and amusing as was to be expected.From the 'Obama' Party bus to Christiania Cycle (with build in sound system) that kept the music playing even after it had 'officially' stopped, to the guys with a draft beer tap set up in their ground floor apartment serving beer directly through their window onto the street (now that's entrepreneurial spirit - especially given the outrageous queues at the local kiosks selling beer!) it was an entertaining evening.As the Distortion Festival proves, when the sun shines so does Copenhagen...and when the sun sets, the fun really begins (even on a Thursday night). Thank goodness for the weekend...and the Distortion Festival in Vesterbro.www.cphdistortion.dka-hhhhh, Sankt Hans Torv...the offic...

Come Out and Play Festival
2008-06-06 16:00:00 "In 2006 the Come Out & Play Festival turned New York City into a playground for a weekend, then did the same for the city of Amsterdam in 2007. Hundreds of players gathered to play dozens different games across each city. Players raced through the night in a city-wide game of zombie tag. Friends faced off in life-sized Pong using only their ears to "hear" the ball. Payphones produced points and Tompkins Square Park became a putt-putt course. 200 people performed stunts to display on the Reuters screen in Times Square. It has been darn good and fascinating fun. Well, the festival is back. [and this weekend] New Yorkers will have the chance to come out and play again across the Lower East Side of Manhattan."

Sunrise Festival - dragged out by tractor!
2008-06-05 00:00:00 Where to start - the weekend festival didn't go at all to plan! My friend Ann and I packed up the Moon Palace and set off to the Somerset hills for the rave of festivals - Sunrise Celebration. From the off it didn't feel right when we arrived at about 2pm to find a MEGA queue about two miles long - there was some cock up to do with licences and the local council - not boding well already. We waited and waited watching all sorts of hippy types and interesting people walking past on their way in. Eventually the queue started moving and I got the Moon Palace in and parked up in a muddy field overlooking the main arena. It had rained quite a lot for the two days prior to the festival so it was already pretty muddy when we arrived. They’d sold 6,000 tickets so it’s not a tiny festival though not a huge one either but there was to have been a good line up of live bands and dance music rigs/dj’s including The Orb. Armed with my Wellington boots I went down to the arena area only...

A actriz de 50 anos, que protagonizou «Instinto Fatal», referiu no Festival de Cannes que o Dalai Lama era um «bom amigo». Stone acrescentou ainda que o terramoto que aconteceu na China esteve relacionado com a postura do país face ao Tibete: «Este terramoto aconteceu e penso se não será o Karma. Quando não somos simpáticos acontecem-nos coisas más». O comentário de Sharon Stone levou a uma onda de críticas na China, onde mais de 69 mil pessoas morreram no sismo. Entretanto, a actriz já veio a público pedir desculpa pelas afirmações proferidas.Fonte: IOL Cinema
The Copenhagen Distortion Festival Hits Norrebro...
2008-06-04 22:16:00 On Thursday, the annual Copenhagen Distortion Festival hits Nørrebro. Last year it was a great evening, with the police even cooperating and closing down some streets to traffic until extremely late in the evening (as the music played on...). Tomorrow threatens to be even better - the weather looks to be just perfect, and the Festival gets more and more word of mouth and media attention every year. And it's good. Always. If you're into this sort of thing, at least occasionally.On Friday the festival hits Vesterbro, and then on Saturday is the Final party. But there's something about a mid-week party that can be a welcome relief, even if only once in a while. And the area around Sankt Hans Torv is just the right size to have an intimately massive little happening.www.cphdistortion.dkH-opefully more to report shortly.

Singapore Dumpling Festival 2008
2008-06-04 17:45:00 My wife and I went to Singapore last week.We stayed in South East Asia Hotel for this trip. South East Asia Hotel is located at 190 Waterloo Street. Waterloo Street is flocked with tourists day and night. It's coincident that at this particular time the community around Waterloo Street is celebrating Dumpling Festival. The Dumpling Festival celebration is from 29 May to 8 June. Waterloo Street is brightly lighted at night. There are stalls selling dumplings along both sides of Waterloo Street nearby South East Asia Hotel. I couldn't resist the tasty dumpling, so I bought two dumplings and shared with my wife. We enjoyed eating the dumplings with lipton tea in the hotel room. |
