Named one of New York Times Top-20 Cookbooks of 2006.Have you ever wanted to host a full evening of Indian food, culture, and music? How about preparing a traditional Balinese banquet? Or take a trip to Cairo and enjoy an Egyptian feast? The Ethnomusicologists' Cookbook takes you around the world on a culinary journey that is also a cultural and social odyssey. Many cookbooks offer a snapshot of individual recipes from different parts of the world, but do nothing to tell the reader how different foods are presented together, or how to relate these foods to other cultural practices. For years, ethnomusicologists have visited the four corners of the earth to collect the music and culture of native peoples, from Africa to the Azores, from Zanzibar to New Zealand. Along the way, they've observed how music is an integral part of social interaction, particularly when it's time for a lavish banquet or celebration. Foodways and cultural expression are not separate; this book emphasizes this connection through offering over thirty-five complete meals, from appetizers to entrees to side dishes to desserts and drinks. A list of recommended CDs fills out the culinary experience, along with hints on how to present each dish and to organize the overall meal. The Ethnomusicologists' Cookbook combines scholarship with a unique and fun approach to the study of the world's foods, musics, and cultures. More than just a cookbook, it is an excellent companion for anyone embarking on a cultural-culinary journey.

Think food carts mean hot dogs and pretzels? Think again. From offerings like Breakfast Waffle Tacos to lunchtime Salmon and Chipotle Fried Pies to dinnertime Taiwanese Fried Chicken, the U.S. has been struck by truck food mania and is fast becoming a country of meals on wheels. Make that restaurants on wheels. What Guy Fieri has done for diners, drive-ins, and dives, John T. Edge's "Truck Food" will do for the enormous, evolving street food scene. Young chefs countrywide are foregoing the expense and aggravation of opening landlocked restaurants and turning to trucks, vans, carts, and retired buses to create and sell high-end, reasonably priced dishes that have diners coming back for more, and food critics taking the trend seriously. Both an exuberant celebration of how America eats streetside and a culinary travelogue, "Truck Food" is the definitive street food cookbook by one of this country's most respected chroniclers of distinctively American dishes. Visiting hundreds of restaurants on wheels, John T. has collected the very best recipes - and interviewed the proprietors, customers, and small business supporters who helped make the trend happen. Now we can all enjoy Kogi Tacos from Los Angeles. Moroccan Chicken Crepes from Austin and Lemon Crepes from Philadelphia. Sloppy Jerk Sandwiches and Sweet Potato Wraps from Madison, Wisconsin. Coconut Cream Pie from Portland, Oregon and Oatmeal Jammy Cookies from New York City. And we don't even have to stand in line.

Bruce Roberts takes us on a photographic tour of fourteen of the famous colonial Virginia plantation houses nestled along the shores of the Lower James River from Richmond east to Jamestown and Williamsburg. Now carefully restored, often with the original furnishings, these houses are glorious monuments to a bygone era. If you have never visited the James River plantations, this book will inspire you to plan a trip there. If you have, you will find this book a wonderful memento of a special place. Robert's 141 color photographs capture the magnificent exteriors of the houses, as well as their gardens and grounds, and offer rare and intimate glimpses of their interiors and furnishings. The plantations portrayed include Shirley Plantation, one of the oldest in America; Belle Air Plantation, with its unique seventeenth-century frame house containing America's finest Jacobean staircase; and Westover Plantation, site of the elegant Georgian home built by William Byrd II. The text provides histories of the plantations, presenting them as places where real people lived and workedand still do, in many cases. While the plantations share some common history, each reflects the individual characteristics of the men, women, and children who lived there. In the dining room at Berkeley Hundred, George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, and eight other presidents enjoyed meals and discussed affairs of state. At Carter's Grove, Roberts photographed the Refusal Room, where, according to local history, both Washington and Jefferson were refused in marriage by Virginia belles. Today many of the plantation homes have been designated state and national historic sites, and with this book you can visit themand relive four hundred years of history.

Take to the skies on your own private tour of Brighton and Hove, during which you and two guests can appreciate views of the famous Brighton seafront and the gorgeous Downs landscape. This helicopter tour stands out amongst others as you can choose your companions for the trip, or enjoy the flight all to yourself! Arriving at Shoreham Airport, you'll first have time to take in the history of the building before meeting your friendly pilot and boarding the helicopter. Shoreham Airport was built in 1910 and is the oldest airfield in the UK - with interesting artefacts and two licensed restaurants, a visit there is an experience in itself! Once you've been briefed and strapped in to the aircraft, your pilot will start the exhilarating ascent into the clouds above. Vertical take-off is an unrivalled experience; leaving your stomach on the tarmac as you swiftly rise into the sky is a feeling that can barely be described! Every passenger in the helicopter is guaranteed a window seat, so you have unobstructed views of the rolling hills on the Downs and the sparkling sea below you. Cruise past the Brighton West Pier and marvel at this historic structure from a totally unique viewpoint - it's a truly unforgettable sight! If you are too transfixed by the stunning vista panning out in front of you to take pictures, fear not, as each flight comes with a souvenir CD of photos that you can share with friends and family. For those who have always wanted to experience the thrill of helicopter flight, this sightseeing tour makes the perfect gift that will be remembered for a lifetime. Whether you want to treat a loved one to a special day out, or fancy seeing the Sussex countryside from the air for yourself, nothing about this experience will disappoint.

The greatest threat to privacy today is not the NSA, but good-old American companies. Internet giants, leading retailers, and other firms are voraciously gathering data with little oversight from anyone. In Las Vegas, no company knows the value of data better than Caesars Entertainment. Many thousands of enthusiastic clients pour through the ever-open doors of their casinos. The secret to the company's success lies in their one unrivaled asset: they know their clients intimately by tracking the activities of the overwhelming majority of gamblers. They know exactly what games they like to play, what foods they enjoy for breakfast, when they prefer to visit, who their favorite hostess might be, and exactly how to keep them coming back for more. Caesars' dogged data-gathering methods have been so successful that they have grown to become the world's largest casino operator, and have inspired companies of all kinds to ramp up their own data mining in the hopes of boosting their targeted marketing efforts. Some do this themselves. Some rely on data brokers. Others clearly enter a moral gray zone that should make American consumers deeply uncomfortable. We live in an age when our personal information is harvested and aggregated whether we like it or not. And it is growing ever more difficult for those businesses that choose not to engage in more intrusive data gathering to compete with those that do. Tanner's timely warning resounds: Yes, there are many benefits to the free flow of all this data, but there is a dark, unregulated, and destructive netherworld as well.

Light Bulb by Nancy Pickard was selected for inclusion in "The Best American Mystery Stories 2013", edited by Otto Penzler and Lisa ScottolineKansas City, famous for its jazz, its barbecue, and its shady history, provides the venue for this solid addition to Akashic's acclaimed noir anthology series. - "Publishers Weekly" Hard-used heroes and heroines seem to live a lifetime in the stories. Each one seems almost novelistic in scope. Half novels-in-waiting, half journalistic anecdotes that are equally likely to appeal to Kansas City boosters and strangers. - "Kirkus Reviews" Travel has many unexpected benefits, so even if you"ve never had a reason to visit the city itself, you'll find "Kansas City Noir" surprisingly well worth the price of the ticket. - " Bookgasm" Picture steam rising from a sewer grate on a rain-slicked street. The sound of footsteps comes closer and closer behind you as you walk down a dark, downtown Kansas City alley. If this scenario entices you, then you just might enjoy "Kansas City Noir". - "Kansas City Public Television" What we heard was REALLY GOOD. So good in fact that we picked up a copy. Now we"re. getting ready to read it in one sitting. - "Tony's Kansas City " Brand-new stories from: J. Malcolm Garcia, Grace Suh, Daniel Woodrell, Kevin Prufer, Matthew Eck, Philip Stephens, Catherine Browder, John Lutz, Nancy Pickard, Linda Rodriguez, Andres Rodríguez, Mitch Brian, Nadia Pflaum, and Phong Nguyen.

Looking for a tasty way to make your workaday breakfasts pop? Grab this flight of indie popped tarts with five different all-natural, totally real fillings, ready to fly out the door with your thermos of coffee. Yes, your commute just got a lot better, thanks to homemade hand pies in Chocolate, Salted Caramel Apple, Strawberry, Cinnamon Brown Sugar and, the Mouth team front-runner, Blueberry! When maker Meghan Ritchie introduced these retro treats at Brooklyn food market Smorgasburg, they quickly became a hot ticket. We immediately swooned over their buttery, flaky crusts and to-die-for fillings. They’ve got such an intense city following, appearing in the pastry cases of every local coffee shop we frequent, and charting on the Village Voice’s list of the top 100 dishes. Pop to it! INSTRUCTIONS We ship these treats frozen and mostly they defrost on the way. Store at room temperature and when you're ready to enjoy, just reheat them in an oven or toaster oven at 250 degrees for five minutes. The pastries stay fresh for over a week, but those west of the Mississippi should eat these within a couple of days of receiving them for the freshest tasting pastries. If you make it more than 24 hours, you deserve some kind of prize.

A collection of five kinky stories with mixed and varied themes including sex in a public place, BDSM and food fetish. The Strap-On by Maggie Morton From the moment he sees the strap-on in his girlfriend's bedroom drawer, Percy is obsessed with the sex-toy. It fills his every fantasy. Then one day it disappears and he is heartbroken. But it turns out she is taking him on a trip and there is more than one delicious surprise along the way. Confessions by K D Grace Confession is good for the soul, but Hail Marys and Our Fathers aren't nearly enough to gain absolution when Jilly confesses to an unsuspecting priest that confession makes her come. Doctor's Orders by Brandon Burnham Harley's at a posh party in downtown Miami. He's having a great time, but he does have a small problem. Both his hands are bandaged after an injury, he needs to visit the Gents, and the woman friend he came with has disappeared. Gorgeous Marie offers to help. She tells him she's a doctor and used to performing intimate services, but things get rather more intimate than either of them originally planned. Retail Seduction by Tabitha Rayne Selena is out shopping when she is overcome by the urge to have an orgasm and she escapes into a changing room with a black silk scarf. Later, at home, she tells her husband, Jim, that she stole the scarf and he ties her up with it and spanks her soundly. But Selena, it seems, enjoys her punishment far too much. Have Your Cake and Eat it by Jeremy Smith Julie is a caterer and one of the things that annoys her is the amount of food that gets wasted. On this particular afternoon she is anxious to get home with boyfriend, Leigh, so they can catch up on their love-life - they haven't seen each other for a while. While he's helping her dispose of a mountain of jelly, custard and chocolate gateaux, they discovers a much more exciting use for it. Maybe they can combine clearing-up with love-making. Parties will never be quite the same again. These stories
