A "Good Friday" Indeed

Finally Friday is here and that is a good thing since my brain is fried. As the calendar would have it, today is also "Good Friday" so that makes it a little better than the average Friday? (Kidding, I know bad joke.) Some of you may have today off, if so I'm jealous! Enjoy the long weekend and here is a classic poster to start it out right.

Career Blogs Need To Incorporate Sex And Swearing

Do business advice blogs bore you?

Yeah, me too.

And that's a shame because they are often packed with lots of great content! The trouble is they often pack that great content in a boring manila folder. And lets be honest, no one is ever eager to peek inside a boring manila folder.

So these posts get overlooked and their great advice goes unheard because the presentation and delivery are all wrong. They've failed to entice the reader and get them excited to read more!


Smart business advice doesn't vary much whether you are writing from an tropical island as a location independent entrepreneur, or from a corner office with a birds-eye view overlooking the island of Manhattan. It doesn't even vary much if you're writing from inside four dull gray cubicle walls.

The point is, from WHERE you write doesn't matter. HOW you write does! And personally, I would be more likely to read career blogs if they incorporated some sex and swearing. Anything to spice it up!

I don't write a lot of career/entrepreneurship advice here on my blog. Although I'm told I should. I don't write on the topic or even talk to my friends and family about business because quite frankly, at the end of a workday, I'm sick of talking about work.

Don't get me wrong. I love discussing business - hearing people's views, sharing my own, learning and applying new strategies. I just prefer to discuss it in a way that's more relaxed, more relatable.

Earlier this week I was asked to write a guest post for Brazen Careerist, a career-management site for high achieving young professionals and ambitious college students. I've had close to two dozen of my posts featured on Brazen Careerist in the past. So I'm guessing they like my edgy take on life and work.

Here is a nibble of my most recent one...

Giving It Away On A First Date and In Business
Ever notice that people who have a product or service of value are happy to give you a trial run or a money-back guarantee? That’s because they’re confident that once you get a taste of what they’ve created, you’ll come back for more. It’s the classic “try before you buy” concept. You hook them with that nibble.
It’s sort of like a first-date kiss. (Well, minus the nibble unless you’re into that sort of thing.) The kiss should be good, but small. Just enough to make them want more, to convince them to say yes to a second date and keep the thought of you lingering...

Think of it like this. If you were standing on a corner with two men, one in a stuffy black suit and the other with a free-flowing purple mohawk, who would seem more fun to chat up?

Exactly! That's why I strive to write from a place inside myself that resembles a punk-haired businessman. Well, I'm currently sporting a fohawk undyed and missing a tie today. But close enough.

Five Years and a New Chapter (and Blog)

It all started with my first post featuring my pork and peaches stir-fry recipe. It was my attempt to impress readers to this blog that I could be creative, marrying my Chinese cooking techniques with seasonal California influences (that would be the peach). And of course, the servings were just right for The Single Guy.

So that’s how Cooking With the Single Guy was born.

Five years later, I still post recipes, but not as often because I’ve pretty much gone through my repertoire of recipes. My blog has grown to include more dining reviews, food shopping and events (and maybe the occasional cupcake or frozen yogurt).

But you know what it’s like when you reach a milestone – like the seven-year itch, or a mid-life crisis. You reflect. You go down memory lane and get all emotional about a pork and peaches recipe. And you wonder about whether you still want this.

I’ve seen a lot of food bloggers who actually slowly disappeared, with no new updates. And you figure they probably just went on with their lives, leaving us behind with just the memories.

I just realized that I’ve now written myself into this hole where it sounds like I’m about to announce some bad news. But it’s actually good news. Really.

I will be moving on from this blog, and will no longer be updating it. Don’t get me wrong, I’m still single. And I’m still cooking. It’s just I felt like I needed a change, something fresher, and something that focused more on my love of food photography. I'm not giving up food blogging. Just moving to a new address.

So I’m happy to announce that I’ve launched an entirely new food blog, one that showcases my photos better. I’m still writing about eating out, food shopping, events, and the occasional recipes. I’m just doing it now at Focus:Snap:Eat.

I’ve spent the last two months setting up this site, so I really hope that you’ll follow me over there. You’ll continue to see my photos and read about my food adventures. If you go there this week, for example, you’ll find photos of this weekend’s Eat Real Festival in Oakland, along with reviews of Nojo in San Francisco, a look at orange wines, and even a chicken recipe from my childhood.

I want to thank everyone who’ve taken the time to stop by and read my blog. I’m always amazed at how people find me, from all over the world. This blog will remain as an archive of my reviews and recipes. And I hope to read your comments at Focus:Snap:Eat as I begin the next chapter in my food blogging life.

"In this product, we are more forward side than the specifics of experience," said Agus Sugiharto, Indonesia Country Manager of HTC in launching the product in Jakarta, 23 September 2011. 


Agus added, with the ease of getting a picture trends, today people tend to want a picture as the original. "The desire is accommodated in these devices," Agus claims. 


"Two 5-megapixel camera on the back represents the sharpness of the human eye, and dimension 3. While in front there is a 1.3 megapixel camera, "said Agus. "Thus, the picture is more real, like we can take," he added.

Forging Friendships With Unlike-Minded People

We are attracted to like-minded people. We form friendships and romantic relationships with those who share our similar interests, goals, beliefs and core values. Just look at the people you surround yourself with. Notice the familiar flavor.

And because they are familiar the bonds are effortless, comfortable and strong. Rarely do we step completely outside our comfort zone and approach someone that is nothing at all like us! Because to do that is scary and seems awkward, like filling space with the echo of crickets where conversation should lie. So to avoid chirping insects, sweaty palms and restless feet we stick to those we share common ground with. We stick to like-minded people.


No one would question why I'm friends with the people I'm friends with IRL (In Real Life as they say) because we compliment one another. We match up just perfectly. But when it comes to the online world some of these relationships not only surprise others, but have left me scratching my own head!

Take "Sally" for example. (I'll be using the fictious name "Sally" to protect her identity.)

I'm not sure two people could be more different - "Sally" and I. It's always baffled me that she reads my blog and likes my writing. I feel like I would be highly offensive to her (ex: The Manwhore Relapse post). I like using the word "fuck." She prefers saying "fudge." That's not very like-minded. So I once tried bringing her over to the darkside, corrupt her and get her to swear. I believe I got a "f*ck" out of her. The asterisk is as far as she's going to go. She made it to the light gray side.

She's a pair of properly pressed slacks.
I'm a pair of broken-in torn bluejeans.
She's been known to give out hugs.
I've been known to get into fist fights.
She goes to church on Sunday mornings.
I'm coming home on Sunday mornings.
She enjoys curling up with a good book.
I enjoy...well, let's just leave it at that.

Good people come in all kinds of flavors and mindsets. Of course most of us will never know this because we will never reach out to anyone other than like-minded people. The only thing that "Sally" and I have in common is that we both agree the sky is blue and the grass is green. Oh and one other thing - blogging.

That’s the beautiful thing about writing. We’re not just connecting our thoughts and emotions with words. We’re connecting with complete strangers with our words. If it wasn't for blogging, "Sally" and I may have never even exchanged pleasantries. She would stick to her like-minded folk and I would stick to mine. So maybe having a blog is the perfect introduction?

Bloggers are just good people. They're good to one another because even despite all their differences, whether they type out all four letters of a curse word or drop an asterisk in the middle, they will forever share one common ground - a love for the written word. And sometimes that's enough. Sometimes one similar interest is all it takes to get a conversation going. To spawn many more conversations. To forge the most interesting and most unlikely of friendships.

Thank you written word.

War Samsung and Apple Begins in Australia

illustrations samsung vs apple
Samsung filed a lawsuit against Apple for alleged patent infringement wireless.
Samsung has filed countercharges against Apple in the Court of Australia. The lawsuit filed because Apple accused of patent infringement over Samsung's wireless that is used in the iPhone and iPad


Quoted from page to Reuters, Samsung filed a lawsuit after delaying the launch of its Galaxy series tablets in Australia. Kangaroo country is now indeed become a global patent dispute between Samsung with Apple. 

Release issued by Samsung Electronics Australia says, Samsung claims a lawsuit filed in Federal Court of Australia, with registration in New South Wales, on September 16, 2011. 


Contents lawsuit claimed the seven patent infringement against Samsung wireless communications standards in Australia by the product Apple iPhone 3G, iPhone 3G, iPhone 4, and the iPad


Claims that Apple's patent also mentions use in a suit against related to
Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 is not appropriate and should be withdrawn by the court.

Behind Apple's previous
Samsung sued  against all patent in South Korea, Japan and Germany. However, a spokesman for Apple in Australia yet to respond. 

Samsung and Apple has a patent war smartphones and tablets since April. Apple is trying to anticipate the development of Android-based phone sales with a direct 'beat up' largest mobile phone manufacturer based Andoid, Samsung.  


samsung-vs-apple1

Apple still controls the high-end mobile phone market with the iPhone. However, Apple has denied allegations of patent Samsung product and a product called Galaxy tracing the design and appearance of the iPhone. The current 'war' is still running at a court in the United States, as well as Europe, South Korea, and Australia. 


Apple won the lawsuit in Germany, earlier this month. German court banned Samsung sold 10.1 Tablet Galaxy country in Europe's biggest economy. Samsung's own appeal against the decision of German courts.

Ready Sues, Samsung Waiting Iphone 5 For Korea

Iphone 5 rumored uses NAND flash memories and application processors (APs) Samsung.
Samsung and Apple

The current iPhone is a product that is still the ruler of the smartphone market and most sold. Apple was preparing to launch iPhone 5 to resume the power in the world smartphone market.

However, a number of legal cases are expected to inhibit the iPhone master the smartphone market. Moreover, a number of lawsuits have been filed Samsung who think Apple is violating patents owned by Samsung's wireless products are used on the iPhone and iPad.

Samsung has filed a lawsuit in Japan and Australia. In addition, there are at least 23 lawsuits are still pending in the Apple vs. Samsung conflict in several countries, including France, Germany and the United States.

Not only that, as quoted by the Korea Times, Samsung even waiting for the launch of the iPhone 5 in South Korea, to file a lawsuit against Apple in South Korea.

"Shortly after the arrival of the iPhone 5 here (Korea), Samsung plans to sue Apple to court for breach of Samsung's wireless technology," said one senior Samsung executives who refused to be named, told the Korea Times.

"As long as Apple does not want to drop its mobile telecommunications functions, they may not sell its product i without the use of our products have been patented. We will continue to fight against Apple's legal battles over the reverberations still audible," he explained.

iPhone 5 is now the target of Samsung's new, even before the market. Korea Times called the iPhone 5 using Liquid Cristal Display (LCD) production of LG, as well as NAND flash memories and application processors (APs) Samsung's production, which could be a gap.

Samsung Will Make Iphone 5 illegal in Europe

This act is an act of retaliation for Apple who filed a lawsuit that Samsung products banned in Europe
The consequences of Apple's lawsuit against her former partner, Samsung is now getting worse. There is a possibility, it even Apple products that will come forbidden to circulate in the EU. 

One of the goals of the patent is the patent owner can get money from people who use their patents. However, it seems, this method has been modified it to turn off Apple's competition in the market.
The lawyers they managed to do its job in the European Union and the successful ouster of a number of products from competitors iPad outlets stores on the continent. Now, Samsung decided that they will resist using the same method as that used by Apple. 


South Korean manufacturer will use the patent rights they have and urgent ban on Apple products that use Samsung's tech components to circulate in Europe.
"When the iPhone 5 circulated in Europe, we plan to drag Apple to court for violating patents related to wireless technology owned by Samsung," said a Samsung executive, quoted by the Korea Times, 21 September 2011. 


This step, the spokesman said, is a response to legal action taken against the ranks of the Apple smartphone and touchscreen Samsung's
Galaxy tablet  most successful made into illegal trafficking in Europe by Apple for allegedly mimics the iPhone and iPad. 

According to analysts, Samsung, which is pretty straight so far in the competition in the market and legal channels, has decided to take the dirty action that's taken its competitors. After some time the news spread that they would seek to prevent Apple to bring iPhone 5 in Korea, now they want to ban the iPhone 5 become more widespread. 


The dispute between Apple and Samsung it self has become a spotlight on the industry. Because the patent should be used to get money from other people who utilize the technology or the patent owner, not used to protect the product from its competitors.

Tyler Florence’s Angry Lobster with Tomato-Chile Butter Recipe

For this month’s Test Kitchen, I get to eat lobster thanks to your votes. Some 47 percent of you wanted me to try the “angry lobster” recipe from Tyler Florence’s “Tyler’s Ultimate” Cookbook that I got awhile back.

That far exceeded the other three choices: Ultimate chicken wings (23%), hunter’s minestrone (16%), and lemon ricotta crepes (12%).

The recipe keeps things simple, with minimal ingredients. I think when cooking lobster, the simpler the better because the lobster meat is just so great by itself.

The trick is finding the live lobster. Most places sell just frozen lobster tails, but whenever I need live seafood, I can always count on the seafood markets in Chinatown. So that’s where I went, and found the above huge lobster that weighed more than 2 lbs. (Florence’s recipe really only called for a 1.5 lb. lobster.)

The recipe gets its name from the fact that you have to kill the live lobster, which would make anyone angry. But in Chinese households, a quick chop to a lobster (or crab) between the eyes is a quicker death than boiling. And Florence agrees with me as he instructs you to first pierce a chef’s knife between the lobster’s eyes, then twisting off the claws, followed by cutting through the back and finally chopping the lobster tail into four sections.

I’m not going to photograph the cutting process, mostly because I have yet to figure out a way to shoot photos of myself while wielding a knife. So instead, here’s the end result with the lobster all chopped up. (One thing, though, is I didn’t really keep the body section, which really had just the gills and very little meat. Florence’s instructions made it sound like you should cook them too.)

Once I got my lobster ready, I prepped the other ingredients, which was a pint of cherry tomatoes, two handfuls of fresh basil, a teaspoon of crushed red pepper flakes and 3 garlic cloves, thinly sliced.

To prepare the dish, I started by warming a little less than a quarter cup of extra virgin olive oil in a large skillet. Then adding the garlic and red pepper flakes to infuse the oil (over medium high heat). With some flour that’s been seasoned in salt and pepper, I dredged the lobster pieces and tossed them into the pan. I cooked the lobster in two batches because it’s important not to crowded the skillet. Florence says to brown the lobster pieces for about 3 to 4 minutes on each side.

When the lobsters are all browned, then they all get combined in the skillet along with the cherry tomatoes, cooking for another five minutes to soften the tomatoes. Then add half the basil along with the juice of half a lemon.

To finish everything, I added in two tablespoon of unsalted butter, which creates a sauce for the butter. And then I just plated everything up and garnished with the remaining basil leaves. Looks pretty good huh?


My tips and warnings about this recipe:
  1. I don’t know if this is true for all lobsters, but mine had sooo much water in him (or her, I didn’t check) that when I chopped into it, a lot of liquid came out. Be very close to your sink to not mess up your counter top.
  2. Try not to use a lot of flour on your lobster pieces, dust them off a bit. The reason is the flour residue in the skillet will turn the butter you add later into a nice thick sauce. But too much flour can mean a super thick sauce. So use less flour or add more liquid or lemon juice at the end to thin out the butter sauce.
  3. Definitely serve this with bread to fill you up but also to soak up the chile butter sauce.

Ease of cooking: Although I’ve done it before with Dungeness crabs, it was a bit tougher killing a lobster, especially the one I got which was huuuge from Boston. The killing part is probably the toughest part of the recipe, and then after that it’s pretty easy.

Taste: Keeping it simple, the taste was pretty nice, with the butter and slight heat from the red pepper flakes. I really enjoyed it.

Overall grade: A, because this was a simple preparation, tasty, and really looks vibrant in the red and green when presented. I’m definitely going to try another recipe from this cookbook. (Maybe the lemon ricotta crepes!)
