People People planner Eagles returning to Alton area As the cold temperatures begin to set in, a few of Alton’s favorite winter guests have been spotted in the region. The numbers of eagles migrating through the region will continue to grow as December gets closer, making every day a great eagle adventure all around Alton. Every January, experts anticipate nearly 1,000 eagles will migrate to the region, many reclaiming their winter nests along the Great River Road from Alton to Grafton and Pere Marquette. Beginning in late December and January, visitors can plan their own eagle watching adventures, or they can take advantage of the numerous eagle meet & greets and touring opportunities available everyday of the 2010 eagle season. The Alton Regional Convention & Visitors Bureau has recently released the 2010 Eagle Watcher ’s Guide to lead the way for visitors. The new guide features general information about the American Bald Eagle, tips for eagle watching, a series of driving routes for viewing the eagles, eagle watching hot spots, photography workshops and opportunities, “eagle caching” adventures and a listing of all the
eagle watching events happening throughout the winter months. Visitors can request the new guide online at www.VisitAlton.com, call 1-800-ALTON-IL or pick it up in person at the Alton Visitor Center, 200 Piasa Street in Downtown Alton. Have you ever wanted to see a live eagle up close? Take a moment to check out the bird that draws thousands each year. Eagle Meet and Greets happen every Saturday in January from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. at the Alton Regional Convention & Visitors Bureau located at 200 Piasa Street. For visitors and eagle enthusiasts looking for professionally guided eagle experiences and educational programming, there are a number of eagle tours and events happening from January through February: • Pere Marquette Bald Eagle Days - Grafton Scott Isringhausen, site interpreter at Pere Marquette State Park, will be presenting informative programs about bald eagles this winter. There will be a short video presentation followed by an observational drive to view the wintering bald eagles. All programs will begin at the park’s visitor center on Illinois Route 100 at 8:30 a.m. Reservations are required. Dress warmly. For more information or reservations,

People People planner Celebrate Kwanzaa at the Garden Celebrate the contemporary African-American holiday of “Kwanzaa: Festival of the First Fruits” at the Missouri Botanical Garden on Tuesday, Dec. 30 from noon to 4 p.m. Kwanzaa is a non-religious holiday that derives its name from the Swahili term matunda ya kwanza, meaning “fruits of the harvest.” The annual event honors African traditions and history, with storytelling and music to celebrate the harvest feast before the dry season. A table of fruits, vegetables and grains will be displayed. Kwanzaa is traditionally celebrated for seven days, each dedicated to a guiding principle: unity, self-determination, collective work and responsibility, cooperative economics, purpose, creativity and faith. A ceremony at noon and 3 p.m. will explain the holiday’s origins as one symbolic candle on the kinara is lit for each principle. Following each ceremony, Janice “Mama” Katambwa will tell stories of Africa using costumes and percussion. Renata’s African Influences, Ajanaku Jewelry and Mama Katambwa’s Boutique will offer Kwanzaa crafts and jewelry for purchase. The Garden Gate Shop also offers an assortment of Africanmade crafts and music CDs. “Kwanzaa: Festival of the First Fruits,” is included with Garden admission $8; St. Louis City and County residents enjoy discounted admission of $4 and free admission o n We d n e s d a y a n d S a t u rd a y mornings until noon.

oliday Stress
is inevitable for most people with all the decorating, shopping, and baking. Stress overtaxes and drains one physically and emotionally. With the holidays is all the “good” food: cookies and candies! (not to mention bad, fast-food while hustling and bustling, too busy to cook). Baked goods, as well as stress, affects hormonal health, stressing adrenal glands, causing fatique, joint aches and pains. So, to reduce holiday stress, eat more fresh vegetables and fruits, exercise, laugh often, and relax with a cup of tea while rejoicing in the reason for the season.

Kenny Rogers Music legend to appear at the Family Arena By DEBBIE SETTLE Of The Edge “The Gambler,” “Ruby, Don’t Take Your Love to Town,” “Lady.” These songs are just a blip on the radar of Kenny Rogers song repertoire over the past 50 years. Yes, Kenny Rogers is celebrating his 50 year career in the music business which has landed him in the pop and country charts every single decade for the past 50 years – a feat no other artist has matched. This past October, Rogers released a 45 track collection of his biggest hits, entitled “Kenny Rogers The First 50 Years.” The boxed set not only includes the best of Rogers music, along with three new songs, one of which is with Dolly Parton, but also features a booklet that contains photos from Rogers personal collection. The 71 year old is not slowing down and settling into retirement like many would hope to do at his age. He recently launched his 28th season of “Kenny Rogers Christmas and Hits Tour. Although the Christmas season will be past us, he will bring the best of his hits and maybe a few new ones to the St. Louis Family Arena on Thursday, Feb. 11, at 7:30 p.m. Throughout his amazing career, Rogers has
earned three Grammy Awards, 11 People’s Choice Awards, 18 American Music Awards, eight Academy of Country Music Awards and five Country Music Association Awards. Not to mention the more than 65 albums he has released over the span of his career. Rogers has recorded and performed with the likes of Dolly Parton, Dottie West, Wynonna, Kim Carnes, Holly Dunn, Sheena Easton, Gladys Knight, Ann Murray and more. Not only has Rogers gained fame as a singer, but as an actor as well. Performing and starring in movies like “The Gambler,” “Six Pack,” “Coward of the County,” “Wild Horses,” and a number of other movies, series and appearances. Kenny Rogers will return to the St. Louis stage on Thursday, Feb. 11, at 7:30 p.m., at The Family Arena in St. Charles, located on Arena Parkway. Tickets are now on sale and range from $65 to $42.

Band Bio: Soulard Blues Band By DEBBIE SETTLE Of The Edge Members are Art Dwyer on bass, Tom Maloney on guitar, Kirk “Dr. Drum” Grice on drums, Marty Abdullah on vocals. (Others sit in from time to time). Bio from myspace: “After 25 years and many incarnations, the Soulard Blues Band – arguably the hardest working band in town – still tears up the town one show at a time. It is not every band you run across that has a mission beyond just steady giggin’, but then again, as one of the longest-lasting acts around and with nine straight wins in the “Best Blues Band” category in a popular local poll, the Soulard Blues Band is not just any band. As bassist and sole remaining founder Art Dwyer will tell you, “Our mission always is just to leave things around a little better than we found ‘em.” That ethic applies equally to song arrangements, the mood of the audience and the entire musical scene in this city that birthed such towering talents as Miles Davis, Johnny Johnson, Henry Townsend, Oliver Sain and many more.” Check out The Soulard Blues Band on Saturday, Dec. 26, at Stagger Inn, in Edwardsville.

Music Tuning in St. Louis Chamber Chorus to celebrate the holidays The Saint Louis Chamber Chorus closes 2009 with “A New World Christmas,” intended to complement last year’s Christmas performance of music by European composers. The program includes many of the same texts as last year but set to music by composers from the New World working primarily in the past 150 years. While the audience will recognize popular carols such as “O Little Town of Bethlehem” and “It Came Upon The Midnight Clear,” many might not be familiar with “Scenes from the Holy Infancy,” a chamber cantata by Missouri’s own Virgil Thomson. Morten Lauridsen’s “O Magnum Mysterium” and “If Ye Would Hear Angels Sing” by the Chamber Chorus’s own Martha Shaffer show that contemporary Christmas music is alive and well. The concert will also feature a world premiere by Sasha Johnson Manning and commissioned by the Chamber Chorus. “The Tree of Life” stands as a companion to Manning’s 2008 piece, “Christbaum.” No Chamber Chorus program can be without its share of surprises. This concert’s offerings include “Magnificat” set to music by the 17th century Columbian composer Gutiérrez Fernández Hidalgo. Far from the only South American composer represented the concert will also include music of Brazilian Heitor Villa-Lobos and a Christmas song by Carlos Guastavino of Argentina. As another surprise treat the concert will open with “Hanacpachap Cussicuinin,” the earliest example of polyphony from Peru, sung in the native language of Nahuatl. Join the Saint Louis Chamber Chorus for its celebration of “A New World Christmas,” at 3 p.m. Sunday, December 20 at the St. Louis Cathedral Basilica. Parking is free. For more information about the concert, and tickets, call 636-4584343.

“You’ll shoot your eye out” “A Christmas Story” is unfolding at the Rep By DEBBIE SETTLE Of The Edge When someone asks you what your favorite holiday programs would be, most would refer to “Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer,” “Santa Claus is Coming to Town,” “A Charlie Brown Christmas,” and a host of other sentimental favorites. However, one movie has become a holiday cult classic, so much so that is it is played over and over for 24 hours straight on Christmas Eve, “A Christmas Story.” Lacking in the sentiment category, “A Christmas Story” has become a favorite of many, with memorable scenes such as Ralphie attempting to climb back up the “Santa Slide” to beg for that elusive “Red Ryder BB Gun,” to only be pushed back down the slide by Santa’s big black boot as Santa exclaims, “You’ll shoot your eye out, kid.” Or maybe the much beloved scene of Ralphie’s friend Flick being “double dog dared” to touch his tongue to the frozen flag pole, which results in complete hilarity as Flick attempts to detach himself. The Repertory Theatre of St. Louis (The Rep) will bring this now deemed classic to life with the continuation of their 2009-2010 series, the stage adaptation of “A Christmas Story” by Philip Grecian, based on the stories of Jean Shepherd and on the holiday classic 1983 film. Performances of “A Christmas Story” will be given on the Browning Mainstage of the Loretto-Hilton Center for the Performing Arts, 130 Edgar Road (on the campus of Webster University), Webster Groves, currently playing through Dec. 27, 2009. Curtain times are Tuesday at 7 p.m.; Wednesday through Friday at 8 p.m.; selected Wednesday matinees at 1:30 p.m.; Saturday evenings at 5 p.m.; selected Saturday nights at 9 p.m.; Sunday matinees at 2 p.m.; and selected Sunday evenings at 7 p.m. (No performances will be given December 24–25. An additional Monday performance will be given December 21 at 8 p.m.) Ticket prices start at just $15 ( p re v i e w s ) a n d $ 1 8 ( re g u l a r performances). To purchase, visit The Rep Box Office, located inside the Loretto-Hilton Center, charge by
December 17, 2009
phone by calling (314) 968-4925, or visit The Rep’s online box office at www.repstl.org. For a little reminder of what you will enjoy, here is an overview of the story: It’s just a few weeks before Christmas, 1938, and little Ralphie Parker wants to find only one thing under the tree come Dec. 25: an official Red Ryder carbine-action 200-shot range model air rifle. Actually, to say he wants it is a great understatement. Ralphie is consumed with desire for it and mounts a campaign soliciting his parents, his teacher, even old Santa Claus himself to ensure it’s delivered. There’s one little hitch, though: Everyone except Ralphie is convinced his heart’s desire is dangerous, warning the boy “You’ll shoot your eye out!” Even if the air rifle’s not a menace, Ralphie has plenty of danger in his day-to-day life. The town bully Scut Farkus has everyone in the schoolyard in his sights for Dutch rubs and brawling. His pal Schwartz delivers a deceptively dire playground dare. Even at home, Ralphie faces trouble from the rattling furnace in the basement and the ravenous dogs next door. And what’s up with this unusual attention he’s receiving from classmate Esther Jane? Distractions, all of it! Ralphie is determined to get his Red Ryder rifle, dreaming up elaborate fantasies to fortify his will. Meanwhile, his Old Man enters contest after contest, finally winning a “major award” that irks Mother and commits grave sins against interior decoration. Ralphie’s mother cooks bland meal after bland meal as everyone looks forward to a savory Christmas dinner. And little brother Randy? He’s probably hiding somewhere or struggling to get free from a dozen layers of sweaters and coats in which his mother has wrapped him against the cold. “A Christmas Story” is a nostalgic, heartwarming kid’s-eye-view of the holidays, fondly narrated by Ralph Parker, all grown up and ready to remember the best of his childhood holidays. The cast of A Christmas Story at The Rep is Jeff Talbott (Ralph), Jonathan A. Savage (Ralphie),
Marnye Young (Mother), Jeff Gurner (The Old Man), Caden Self (Randy), Susie Wall (Miss Shields), Taylor Edlin (Flick), Jarrett Harkless (Schwartz), Julia Schweizer (Esther Jane), Sarah Koo (Helen) and Drew Redington (Scut Farkas). The Rep’s production of “A Christmas Story” is directed by St. Louis native John McCluggage (a Parkway West grad, in case you were going to ask, who received his MFA from Webster University). From 1982 to 1985, McCluggage served as assistant director for five productions at The Rep, including “Medea,” “True West,” “Savage/ Love,” “Tongues” and “Annulla, An Autobiography.” For more information about T h e R e p ’ s p ro d u c t i o n o f “ A Christmas Story,” including a guide introducing the characters, plot and background on the play; photos and video related to the production; and more, visit The Rep’s comprehensive public Web site at www.repstl.org.

phd Gallery hosts unique exhibit, sale and take in some wonderful pieces that are one-of-a-kind works that cannot be found anywhere else. Featured artists will include: Mark Weber, Susan Sullivan, Mary Beth Shaw, David Lancaster, Jimmy Liu, Jim Sabo, Michelle “Mike” Ochonicky, Eric Hoefer, Joe Chesla, Mark Sheppard, Leslie Holt, Charlie Houska, Jeff Kapfer, Noel Leicht, David Wallace, and Polly Saputo. If you have not had a chance yet to stop by phd Gallery, you are in for a treat. The rehabilitated historic building is a piece of artwork in itself. phd gallery in St. Louis opened its doors on Cherokee Street April 21, 2007, becoming the latest addition to the white-hot arts district forming on the city’s south side, in the Cherokee-Lemp district. Boasting three adjoining storefronts in a “green” building, in both design and color, phd features 12 foot ceilings, clean white walls, north facing windows, and a combined exhibition space of nearly 2000 square feet.
Reflecting the passion and artistic vision of artist Philip Hitchcock, phd is an alternative art space that advances challenging works by ground-breaking local, regional, and national artists. St. Louis Magazine writes “Contemporary art gallery in the Cherokee-Lemp district is more polished and less bohemian than the storefronts that initially sparked this arts district, but sculptor and proprietor Philip Hitchcock books clever, inventive exhibits that are always poised to give the establishment a nice big poke in the eye. The aesthetic tends toward clean and minimal; artists are both local and national.” So take the family or a friend and check out what phd Gallery has to offer and the fantastic offerings of “Gifted.” The hours are noon to 4 p.m., Thursday through Sunday, and by appointment.

The Arts Artistic adventures JAC will open new exhibit “Eye Witness” is a collection by local artist James K. Schmidt at the Jacoby Arts Center now through January 10, 2010 at 627 E. Broadway in Alton. “Eye Witness” is an exhibition by James K. Schmidt, who works from his studio in Elsah, and who is known for seeing patterns in nature through the lens of a classic Modernist, distilling organic forms into a dynamic whole. He is a MFA graduate of Cranbrook Academy of Art, a professor of Architecture and Design at Cornell University and Professor Emeritus of Fine Art at Principia College. Schmidt has exhibited internationally and his works of art are in numerous public and private collections. “Eye Witness records that which has inspired me to put into visual form facets of personal discovery,” says Schmidt. “Art of the last century has been concerned with aesthetic reconstruction. The visual world, with emphasis on natural phenomena, is what has given me inspiration for the particular assemblage of imagery. By eye witness I mean responding to what one actually sees and the background associations that this seeing experience brings to thought. Art clarifies and gives fresh meaning to what is often unnoticed. It helps us recognize similarities and propels continuous exploration.” This exhibition includes paintings in oil and acrylic, pastel drawings, plaster castings, textile designs, and video art, many of which have not been seen.
Touhill to hostTeatro Lirico D’Europa Teatro Lirico D’Europa will return to St. Louis and the Touhill Performing Arts Center with Giuseppe Verdi’s classic opera La Traviata for one performance only on Saturday, January 16. Curtain time is 8 p.m. in the Anheuser-Busch Performance Hall. A t r a g i c s t o r y a b o u t thwarted happiness, shame and selfless sacrifices, this opera is “extraordinary” and “heartbreaking,” said the Boston Phoenix. Set in 19th century Paris, Giuseppe Verdi’s classic opera tells the story of a young man who falls in love with a wealthy French courtesan; an affair that’s doomed from the start. With magnificent music sweeping across Paris salons and the countryside, this is one of opera’s most enduring, dramatic and melodic works Teatro Lirico D’Europa, one of Europe’s preeminent touring opera companies, will present a fullystaged version of La Traviata with a symphony orchestra, a chorus of trained singers and professional
December 17, 2009
dancers. It will also present this opera in Italian with English supertitles, and is the only U.S. touring company performing opera in Italian. Teatro Lirico D’Europa was created in 1988 by Bulgarian opera singer Giorgio Lalov and the late Yves Josse, a former ballet diva and successful French arts promoter. The collaboration between Josse and Lalov was a huge success in a very short time, resulting in tours with over 250 performances a season. This is the company’s second production as part of the Touhill’s 2009-10 season. To further enhance the patron’s live experience at La Traviata, the Touhill is offering the E3! program, Explore – Experience – Engage, in association with this performance. E3! pre-show discussions, which begin 50 minutes prior to the performance, and post-show receptions are free to ticket holders. Tickets for La Traviata are $45, $35 and $30. They are available now at the Touhill Performing Arts Center Ticket Office; online at www.touhill. org; or by phone at 14.516.4949. The Touhill’s Ticket Office is located at One University Blvd., St. Louis, MO 63121. All St. Louis area students receive a 10% discount on two tickets with their I.D. Group and senior discounts are also available. The Touhill Performing Arts Center is located on the north campus of the University of Missouri-St. Louis, just 10 minutes from Clayton. (Exit #240 from I-70). There is ample free parking, and the UMSL North Campus MetroLink Station is just steps from the Touhill’s main entrance. N o w i n i t s seventh season of presenting the finest in the performing arts to the St. Louis region, the Blanche M. Touhill Performing Arts Center opened its doors in September 2003. The $52 million facility designed by Pei Cobb Freed and Partners, features the 1,625-seat Anheuser-Busch Performance Hall and the 350-seat E. Desmond and Mary Ann Lee Theater. The not-for-profit Center is the jewel of the University of Missouri-St. Louis campus and is the first impetus and focal point for creating an arts district for students at the University.
Kemper Museum to host Sharon Lockhart exhibit Los Angeles-based conceptual artist Sharon Lockhart creates films and photographs that are at once rigorously formal and deeply humanistic, meticulously observing the details of everyday life while also probing the limits and intersections between the two mediums. As much as Lockhart’s photographs reveal cinematic qualities of staging
and casting, so too do her films frequently engage a static camera and angles that recall photographic practices. In February 2010 the Mildred Lane Kemper Art Museum will present Sharon Lockhart: Lunch Break, a one-person exhibition showcasing the artist’s most recent series. Inspired by the shifting world economy and its effect on American labor, Lockhart spent a year observing and engaging workers at the Bath Iron Works, a major shipyard and U.S. Navy supplier located in Bath, Maine. The resulting works, collectively titled Lunch Break, include two large-scale film installations and three distinct sets of photographs that together explore the daily routines and social activities of workers during their time away from production. The centerpiece of the exhibition is the titular film Lunch Break, which consists of a single, slow-moving tracking shot down a long and seemingly endless interior corridor. To create the piece, Lockhart recorded a ten-minute walk-through — her first use of a mobile camera — then employed digital technology to stretch the length to eighty minutes. This extreme slow motion imbues ordinary lunchtime activities — eating, reading, talking and sleeping — with an almost baroque sense of anticipation, yet the film ultimately refuses cathartic narrative closure. The result is a meditative reflection, devoid of sentiment, on aspects of factory life that typically remain hidden from outside view. By contrast, the second film, Exit, is divided into five sections — one for each day of the workweek — and depicts workers as they depart the complex at the end of their shifts. Employing a static camera, the film recalls Louis Lumière’s historic Leaving the Lumière Factory (1895), a forty-six-second black-and-white
short that is widely considered to be the first true motion picture. Yet Lockhart subtly reverses Lumière’s viewpoint. Rather than surveil workers as they stream toward an exterior camera, she films from within factory grounds, focusing on workers’ backs as they seemingly stage their own exits. The first of the three series of photographs centers on workers’ lunch boxes, emphasizing the ways in which stickers, labels, contents and other minute details suggest the personalities of their owners. A second series is devoted to the
independent businesses that exist within the factory — makeshift booths where workers sell hot dogs, coffee and other items to their colleagues. The third series consists of carefully composed images of workers lingering around lunch tables, at once recalling and revising historical traditions of group portraiture. Sharon Lockhart: Lunch Break is organized by Sabine Eckmann, Ph.D., director and chief curator of the Kemper Art Museum. The exhibition will travel to the Colby College Museum of Art in Maine.

New inventions What will stick – and what won’t By DEBBIE SETTLE Of The Edge The lineup of reality television doesn’t seem to be going away. Shows like “Survivor,” “American Idol,” “The Apprentice,” and others have stood the test of time, staying on the air a number of seasons and remaining popular with viewers. In the past couple years, some new shows about inventors who have created items that they feel are the “next big thing” have been appearing in the reality lineup. On shows like “American Inventor,” the contestants present their inventions to a panel of judges. The judges make a decision, after hearing the creators pitch, whether to let the contestant and their product idea continue on, culminating with the audience voting on the product that deserves to be funded to put it into production. Maybe you became a fan of the latest reality competition show, “Shark Tank.” Entrepreneurs bring their ideas, products, ideas for services or technological inventions and pitch their ideas before the “Shark Tank” panel of investors who decide whether or not they are going to invest their own personal finances into the ideas or inventions presented. There is a lot of heated discussion between the panel members about what is worthy and what is not. A great site that was created to help promote new inventions or new products is called www.yakaboutit.com. “YAK ABOUT IT” features products that started off as ideas, ideas culminated from ordinary people like you and me. The people behind these inventive products had the courage to change their lives as they once knew them and take a risk on their dreams. The learning process, hard work, cash investment and time make it all the more special for inventors and independent entrepreneurs when their ideas are brought to market. The problem is that once a product is ready to sell doesn’t mean that a sale is guaranteed. It’s not that the invention or creative product is useless; rather, the product lacks awareness. That is where the “YAK ABOUT IT” site comes in. There are some great and useful products on the site. Not only can you browse through and learn about some creative ideas that might solve an issue you have faced, but you can also vote on your favorite products. Every couple of days, “YAK ABOUT IT” will post two new products and visitors can read
about each of them and vote which one they think would be most useful or would best serve them as a consumer. All of the items have a complete product description, a story explaining how the product came about, information about the inventor, random information and photos of the product. There are items which are extremely unique, some are comical, some are a little strange and some fall under the “why didn’t I think of that” category. As you browse you might run across the “Heel Shield.” The description reads: “Heel Shields are a nifty little unisex device that slides easily on to the drivers shoe while seated in the car. Heel Shields are made of plastic and are covered in animal skin embossed vinyl. Heel Shields protect the shoe, car mats and pant legs of drivers from the damage caused by driving. Entering your car you deposit bits of glass, rocks, sand and other debris onto your car mats effectively turning your car mats into sand paper in the exact spot where you rest your foot to drive. The motion of the driver’s foot ruins the leather finish of the driver’s shoe.” The cost is $15.95 and come in a variety of colors. Or maybe you are interested in “Chalk Ink.” The description reads: “The marker everyone is looking for! Chalk Ink is used by your favorite coffee shops. It writes like a paint pen, looks like chalk, and when dry, does not smear or make a mess. Cleans off with water and comes in many vibrant colors. Chalk Ink is fun for kids, teachers, art, organizing and signage. The usefulness of Chalk Ink Markers is that they write and appear as if you used chalk, yet they are easier to handle because they are markers. When you want to make fun designs or get attention with a cool chalk look, use Chalk Ink and get the look without the downside.” Price is $18.99. If you want a chuckle, take a look at the “Anti-Theft Lunch Bag.” It isn’t what you might imagine. A box of 25 is $9.99. Rather than describe the item, I will leave it up to you to go to the site, click on the “shop” tab, and check out page 11. At least that was the page it was on at the time this was written. You will be amazed at the thought someone put into keeping their sandwich from ending up in someone else’s tummy! Spazz Stick, meanwhile, isn’t your normal lip balm. It comes in a variety of flavors – and it’s caffeinated. The site is www.yakaboutit.com. Maybe you will find that product that will make life easier!

Obama Christmas: no small feat WA S H I N G T O N ( A P ) — Christmas at the White House isn’t for sissies. Take quantities that might work in a private home — guests, cookies, parties, cards, whatever — and add some extra zeros to get a feel for a White House-sized holiday season. As in 50,000 guests, 28 parties and open houses, a couple hundred t h o u s a n d h o l i d a y c a rd s a n d untold quantities of cookies, cakes, brownies, truffles and the like to feed the Obamas’ holiday throng. “They eat like crazy,” says former White House executive chef Walter Scheib, who cooked for the masses under presidents Bill Clinton and George W. Bush. “Christmas at the White House is the single most mentally and physically challenging thing that you can do.” Scheib said the staff used to joke during the holidays about “White House flextime” — when “you can work any 100 hours you want this week.” As far back as October, pastry chef Bill Yosses’ team was plotting strategy and going over drawings for this year ’s gingerbread house — a 390-pound behemoth whose construction required the use of a band saw. Before Halloween, Yosses already was joking about doing “mental push-ups” to prepare for the coming holiday season. Yosses’ shop stockpiles mounds
of cookie dough in the freezer to keep up with day-to-day demand for holiday sweets. His rule of thumb for receptions: four bite-size dessert items per guest. (Some of which are discreetly slipped into purses and go home as souvenirs.) This year ’s menu for the White House dessert buffet table: lemon layer cake, brownies, assorted cookies, pecan pralines, pumpkin pie, chocolate truffles, and more. Roland Mesnier, one of Yosses’ predecessors, says he always tried to sock away enough dough for 120,000 cookies and sweets by Dec. 1. “If I did not have that, I would be in trouble,” Mesnier said. Michelle and Barack Obama, meanwhile, might want to stockpile hand sanitizer: There’s a whole lot of handshaking going on at all those parties and receptions — although White House aides say the Obamas a re d o i n g a w a y w i t h f o r m a l receiving lines and posed photos with each guest at some events to accommodate more people. The jockeying for a White House invite is intense enough to sorely test any host’s holiday spirit. Speculation over who’ll get to attend the president’s Hanukkah party, for example, has been swirling in Jewish publications since mid-November, along with

although there will be a slightly smaller number of parties and receptions, according to White
grousing that the party’s size is down from last year ’s 800 guests. About 500 will attend this year,

GURNEE, Ill. (AP) — Weeks after Kiddieland Amusement Park closed in suburban Chicago, Six Flags Great America has bought its famed wooden roller coaster — The Little Dipper. Spokeswoman Brooke Gabbert says Six Flags paid $33,000 for the roller coaster that had been at Kiddieland since 1950. Gabbert says the plan is to dismantle the figure-eight track, ship it to Gurnee and have it up and running next year. The roller coaster will still be called The Little Dipper as it joins 13 other roller coasters at Six Flags Great America.
Asian cultural center planned for Salinas, Calif., cafe SALINAS, Calif. (AP) — The Republic Cafe in Salinas served as a gathering place for the local Asian-American community for decades. Now federal funds are helping transform it into a museum and cultural center. The renovation got a boost in N o v e m b e r f ro m a t h re e - y e a r, $600,000 Department of Housing and Urban Development grant to California State University, Monterey Bay. The planned Asian Cultural Center and Museum is the centerpiece of the Chinatown Renewal Project, led by the city and university. Wa l l y A h t y e , w h o s e f a m i l y owned the cafe, says the city’s Chinese, Japanese and Filipino communities came together there, holding celebrations, weddings and Chinese New Year parties. The cafe operated from 1942 to 1988. Organizers say the museum will showcase, among other things, Asian-American contributions to the agricultural industry.

Travel Travel briefs Historic New Orleans hotel brings back Christmas to the lobby NEW ORLEANS (AP) — The historic Roosevelt Hotel is bringing back its famous Christmas lobby display, but with a new look. The hotel recently reopened after a $145 million renovation to repair damage from Hurrican Katrina. The Christmas display, which runs Dec. 1-Jan. 4, includes 20 birch trees reaching to the 20foot ceiling, a canopy of white birch branches decorated with thousands of lights, along with 26 Douglas fir Christmas trees, trimmed with gold ornaments, bows and lights. All the trees are flocked, which means their
boughs are dusted with white to resemble snow. Visitors will also find poinsettias and other holiday decorations throughout the lobby, along with weekday choir performances. The block-long lobby is open to the public and there is no charge to see the display. The Christmas decorating tradition at the Roosevelt dates to the 1940s, when the hotel created an “Angel Hair Lobby� by covering the ceiling with white angel hair, glowing lights and hanging ornaments, and filling the lobby with Christmas trees, toys, wrapped presents, elves and angels. The custom was eventually stopped, then brought back in 1994 and continued until Hurricane Katrina closed the hotel. The new Christmas display is “very charming and a bit more
Meridian Fitness
sophisticated now,� said sales and marketing director Mark Wilson. “The lobby has been restored to its 1940s elegance and the Christmas decorations will compliment that.� The hotel has also returned its Teddy Bear Tea tradition. Beginning on Dec. 5, there will be two seatings each day for guests and their children for
a special tea party featuring children’s menu items which may include some combination of hot chocolate, scones, pizza and petite sandwiches, as well as traditional tea, a cash bar and a menu for adults. Each child will receive a teddy bear upon arrival. Entertainment will include storytellers and
trumpeters, as well as appearances by Santa, his elves and Mrs. Claus. Framed, commemorative photos with Santa will be available at an additional cost. Tickets for Teddy Bear Tea are $49 for adults and $34 for children 10 years and younger, plus tax and gratuity. D e t a i l s a t h t t p : / / w w w. therooseveltneworleans.com/.

“The Blind Side”
This redemption-minded sports flick serves its inspiration straight-up with no twist. Writer-director John Lee Hancock wisely lets the true story of Michael Oher — the AfricanAmerican teen who found a home and, eventually, football stardom, after being adopted by a wealthy Memphis family — speak for itself. That direct focus delivers a feel-good crowd-pleaser, but it also drains the film of the kind of subtle nuances that might have separated it from other Hollywood Hallmark-like efforts, including Hancock’s own “The Rookie.” The movie dutifully chronicles the transformation of Oher (newcomer Quinton Aaron) from blank slate to a fully formed young man, emphasizing the involvement of Leigh Ann Tuohy (Sandra Bullock). Bullock brings her trademark spunkiness to the mother hen role, delivering an iron-willed woman who looks past appearances to do the right thing. RATING: PG-13 for one scene involving brief violence, drug and sexual references. ASSOCIATED PRESS RANKING: Two and a half stars out of four.
“The Twilight Saga: New Moon”
As every Stephenie Meyer fan knows, this is the one where studly vampire Edward Cullen (Robert Pattinson) dumps human girlfriend Bella Swan (Kristen Stewart) for her own safety, and she turns to old chum Jacob Black (Taylor Lautner) for solace, unaware that he’s a werewolf, and therefore Edward’s sworn enemy. Fans will turn out in blockbuster legions, but here are a few of the many things wrong with director Chris Weitz’s adaptation: It’s really two half moons, or two halves of a movie that don’t quite fit. Mopey teenager Bella has all the luster of, well, a mopey teenager. The real rivalry is whether werewolves or vampires can behave with greater preposterousness and pretension. Finally, “New Moon” is boring, eternally so. The soap-opera melodrama of Stewart, Pattinson and Lautner ’s performances provides some unintentional laughs. Yet Stewart is on screen almost all the time, and her Bella is just a drag to be around. With her flat speech and listless presence, it’s unfathomable how two different sets of monsters could fixate so completely on her. RATED: PG-13 for some violence and action. ASSOCIATED PRESS RANKING: One and a half stars out of four.

“The Road”
Director John Hillcoat’s adaptation of Cormac McCarthy’s Pulitzer Prize-winning novel strives to stay close to the book, but it fails to translate its essence and somehow feels more dreary than it should — which is saying something for a story about the apocalypse. Despite its end-of-theworld setting — an ashen wasteland dotted by marauding cannibals — McCarthy’s book is, at heart, a father-son parable. We know them only as The Man (Viggo Mortenson) and The Boy (Kodi Smit-McPhee). Hillcoat’s film feels altogether uncertain, unable to find the scene-to-scene drama of their tenuous survival. Our dominant impression of the Man is his morbidity; Mortensen, a fine actor, doesn’t evoke the weighty, terse steadfastness of the Man. Adapting a masterpiece such as “The Road” is a thankless task, but the film doesn’t work on its own merits. “The Road” should reverberate with the most central questions of life and death, hope and despair. RATED: R for some violence, disturbing images and language ASSOCIATED PRESS RANKING: Two stars out of four.
“Brothers”
Jim Sheridan’s remake of the acclaimed 2004 Danish film “Brodre,” has aspirations for “Deer Hunter” territory — a minor-key examination of the cost blue-collar families pay for war. Where “Deer Hunter” was epic in its reach, “Brothers” never really leaves the front yard. While Captain Sam Cahill (Tobey Maguire) is held prisoner by the Taliban in Afghanistan, his wife (Natalie Portman), thinking he’s dead, befriends Sam’s brother, Tommy (Jake Gyllenhaal). When Sam returns, damaged from a traumatic experience, his rage boils over. It’s a simple story and “Brodre” had a lyrical quality, a poetry lacking in Sheridan’s sleeker, more sentimental film. “Brothers” can’t preserve the intimacy of the original, and the loosened characters slide into cliche despite noble intentions. RATED: R for language and some disturbing violent content. ASSOCIATED PRESS RANKING: Two stars out of four.
“Everybody’s Fine”
For those weary of the cuddly Robert De Niro, the gentle uplift of his latest film probably isn’t going to be tonic for the soul. Playing a retiree looking to reconnect with his adult children, De Niro does offer a master class of minimalist acting. If writer-director Kirk Jones (“Waking Ned Devine”) had allowed his lead actor a bit more room to roam into the
dark corners of his character, the movie’s fast path toward latelife insight would have felt more earned. Still, De Niro’s work possesses such a quiet power that Jones’ well-crafted film disappoints only in the sense that it could have delivered more. With Drew Barrymore, Kate Beckinsale and Sam Rockwell as the grown children. RATED: PG-13 for thematic elements and brief strong language. ASSOCIATED PRESS RANKING: Three stars out of four.
“The Last Station”
In Michael Hoffman’s historically based film about Tolstoy’s last days, the great Russian writer’s legacy is seemingly up for grabs. On one side are the Tolstoyans (Paul Giamatti plays their leader), ardent followers of Tolstoy’s late philosophies of poverty and renunciation. On the other is Tolstoy’s wife, the Countess Sofya Tolstoy (Helen Mirren), who curses their “revolutionary nonsense” and is desperately trying to prevent Tolstoy (Christopher Plummer) from giving away his estate. James McAvoy plays a visiting Tolstoyan, who — like Tolstoy, himself — begins to doubt its rigidity, especially after he meets the carefree Marsha (Kerry Condon). In this richly acted film, love and human flaws have a way of making a mockery of dogma and the deification of genius artists. In celebrating nature in all of its messy, vulgar glory, Hoffman’s camera floats through the tall birch trees. RATED: R for a scene of sexuality and nudity. ASSOCIATED PRESS RANKING: Three stars out of four.
“Up in the Air”
For two-thirds of the journey, George Clooney’s travelingman comedy flies even straighter and truer than director Jason Reitman’s teen-pregnancy hit “Juno,” delivering snappy screwball dialogue with deep touches of pathos. The film strays off course in the final act, veering from an insightful portrait of willful disconnection in our age of portability and turning kind of mushy, kind of vague, kind of conventional. Clooney plays his character — a man who lives for his frequent-flyer life, traipsing the country firing people at downsizing companies — to perfection, presenting a lovably over-confident road-trip warrior. He’s matched with great travel companions in Vera Farmiga as his frequent-flyer soul mate and Anna Kendrick as a young colleague whose innovations could ground him for good. Reitman’s production is first-class, but the movie ends up landing on familiar turf rather than the bold, exotic location where it seemed bound early on. RATED: R for language and some sexual content. ASSOCIATED PRESS RANKING: Three stars out of four.

Clooney shines in “Up in the Air” By DAVID GERMAIN Associated Press On rare occasions, putting a novel through the Hollywood wringer does the story a real service. The rather whiny tone of Walter Kirn’s “Up in the Air” vanishes in Jason Reitman’s extreme makeover of this travelogue comedy about a guy who traipses across America, firing people for a living while greedily counting the miles built up in his frequent-flyer program. Gone is the book’s fickle, possibly amnesiac, definitely disturbed main character, replaced by a lovably overconfident road-trip warrior, a dynamo played to perfection by George Clooney. Gone or transformed are many of Kirn’s flyby-night bit players, swapped out for strong supporting figures led by Vera Farmiga and Anna Kendrick. And mostly gone is the selfabsorbed narrowness of Kirn’s story, a one-man show for which Reitman has substituted an expansive, very relevant tale of corporate downsizing and the people suffering through it. For two-thirds of the journey, “Up in the Air” flies even straighter and truer than director Reitman’s 2007 teen-pregnancy hit, “Juno,” delivering snappy screwball dialogue with deep touches of pathos. The film strays off course in the final act, though, veering from an insightful portrait of willful disconnection in our age of portability and turning kind of mushy, kind of vague, kind of conventional. People change, lessons are learned, but the movie ends up landing on familiar turf rather than the bold, exotic location where it seemed bound early on. Reitman, who shares screenwriting credit with Sheldon Turner, jettisons the hazy meandering of Kirn’s protagonist, who’s grown weary of

In this film publicity image released by Paramount, George Clooney portrays Ryan Bingham in a scene from “Up in the Air.” his traveling ways and is looking for an out. Instead, Clooney’s Ryan Bingham lives for the life of airports, rented cars and executive suites. He expertly maneuvers from hub to hub, staying only long enough to pass out pink slips and offer a semblance of careertransition counseling to the people he fires for downsizing companies whose bosses are too spineless to do the nasty deeds themselves. Ryan’s main goal is to reach
the 10 million-mile plateau on his frequent-flyer account, an aspiration jeopardized when his own firm decides to implement a program of firing people by teleconference, so they never have to leave the home office. Just as Ryan meets his goddess of the skies, frequent-flyer soulmate Alex (Farmiga), his company dispatches him with straight-outof-school efficiency expert Natalie (Kendrick) to test the firing-from-a-
distance technology that threatens to ground him for good. “Up in the Air” peaks too soon, with a marvelous exchange in an anonymous airport as Ryan, Alex and Natalie debate and dissect one another’s values with grand humor but incisorlike ferocity. From there, the movie descends to a safer altitude, offering up a big, though somewhat contrived, dramatic twist as Ryan reconnects with his family and begins to
question the worthiness of his rambling. Everything about the production is first-class: slick design, a wellchosen soundtrack and awardsworthy performances from Clooney, Farmiga and Kendrick, along with good turns from a supporting cast that includes “Juno” co-star Jason Bateman as Ryan’s boss and Melanie Lynskey and Danny McBride as Ryan’s soon-to-be wed sister and her fiance.
No, everybody isn’t fine By ROBERT GRUBAUGH Of The Edge Do not for one second believe the title of the new film starring Robert De Niro, “Everybody’s Fine.” They are not. These characters are so far away from fine, that they don’t even know how to recognize it. I left depressed, never a good way to leave a screening, and couldn’t wait to see my family again. My mom started crying just hearing me describe the film to her. But I don’t wonder just how many American families are in this particular situation. Frank Goode (De Niro), putters around the house looking for things to fix now that he’s retired from his thirty year career at insulating telephone wires across most of New England. He’s helped keep families in touch with one another for so long that he’s completely neglected his own. Most of the communication with his four kids came through his wife, now deceased after a

When the entire brood ditches Frank’s homecoming barbecue, the man has had enough. He lies to his doctor about his own health troubles, packs a bag, and hits the open road. First on a train, later on a bus, flying, or hitchhiking, Frank travels across the entire country to figure out why his children don’t want to talk to him. David (unseen, except in a flashback played by child actor Chandler Frantz) is not in his apartment in New York City, though
his art is alive and well in the gallery below. Frank expects his famous artist son is too busy for a surprise drop-in by his old man so he doesn’t stay long looking for him. He’s off to Chicago to see his successful advertising executive daughter, Amy (Kate Beckinsale) and her beautiful family. What the audience is privy to--and not Frank--is the overheard conversations between Amy and her siblings that tell us what’s really going on. Amy’s boutique firm is doing well, but her marriage is dead. When Frank arrives in Denver, Robert (Sam Rockwell) turns out to be only a percussionist and not the rich conductor his wife might have led him to believe. In Las Vegas, after a bizarre mugging, he finds Rosie (Drew Barrymore) not dancing, but on hiatus from her revue on the Strip. It’s really maternity leave for a baby she’s had with her partner. Funny thing is Frank didn’t know she was pregnant or gay. He still loves his kids. In fact, every single
time we see them through his eyes, Frank sees them as the child he most fondly remembers. The child he worked his fingers and lungs to shreds to help be the successes he though they were. Turns out, they were just simple people trying to find their own happiness. When Frank’s illness rears its head and he finally gets his family in one place, the film turns into a weep fest--especially when we learn why David, his father ’s favorite, is so long absent. I was wreck afterwards. This film is not much more than a retelling of 2002’s “About Schmidt” (starring Jack Nicholson and directed by Alexander Payne), but without any of the great comedy that made that film such a wonderful treat. The holidays are a time to spend days with the ones you love and cherish your bond. It’s not necessary to see movies that hit us over the head with threats for what happens when you miss one of those get-togethers.

Movies Eastwood, Freeman return for "Invictus" LOS ANGELES (AP) — Nelson Mandela made it clear that Morgan Freeman was the man he would want to play him in a film. When it came time to play Mandela in “Invictus,” Freeman t o l d p ro d u c i n g p a r t n e r L o r i McCreary that he had two men in mind to direct the film, which dramatizes Mandela’s partnership with a South African rugby star (played by Matt Damon) to rally their post-apartheid countrymen behind the team’s underdog quest for the 1995 World Cup. “I said, ‘I can only think of two. Clint Eastwood, and then there’s Clint Eastwood.’ He’s the best director I know,” Freeman says of the filmmaker who gave him a plum role in “Unforgiven” and an Academy Award-winning part in “Million Dollar Baby.” Freeman’s comment comes moments before Eastwood enters the room for a joint interview, amiable banter and wisecracks ensuing as the two longtime friends and colleagues talk about their third collaboration. “Are you supposed to be here?” Freeman demands of Eastwood. Informed of the compliment Freeman had just paid him as his only choice to direct “Invictus,” Eastwood shoots back: “That’s very kind of him. He’s obviously a man of very good taste and selectivity in life.” Freeman follows with a reminder that Eastwood had once “stood up in public with a microphone and called me the best actor in the world.” The exchange continues: Eastwood: “That was right after I told Matt that he was the best actor in the world.” Freeman: “Doesn’t matter. ... You always go for the best.” Eastwood: “I do pride myself on that. I believe in surrounding
myself with the very best people, and that cuts down the margin for error, and that covers my inadequacies.” Freeman: “And he says, he can stand back and let them do their thing, then take all the credit.” Their give-and-take reflects the camaraderie that Eastwood, 79, and Freeman, 72, captured on screen as hired mercenaries in 1992’s Western “Unforgiven” and as ringside pals in 2004’s boxing drama “Million Dollar Baby.” Both films dominated the Oscars, their wins including best picture and director for Eastwood. With both movies, Eastwood came calling for Freeman. With “Invictus,” Freeman was the first man on board, sending the script Eastwood’s way, hoping his friend would want to direct. Freeman had been meeting with Mandela since the 1990s with the idea of adapting the jailed-activistturned-president’s memoir “Long Walk to Freedom” for the bigscreen. The actor eventually set it aside, finding Mandela’s life story too expansive to fit into a film. “How can you take all that and put it into a movie?” Freeman says. “Even if you condensed it down to a three-hour movie, how could you do it justice?” Then journalist John Carlin told Freeman about his book, “Playing the Enemy: Nelson Mandela and the Game That Made a Nation,” recounting the new South African p re s i d e n t ’ s c h e e r l e a d i n g t h a t united whites and blacks behind the national rugby team. The effort defined the healing spirit Mandela brought to the nation, Freeman says. But “Invictus” is not being embraced by all South Africans, who complain that South Africans should be starring in movies about their own stories rather than
American actors. South Africans do, however, have key roles in the film, including Patrick Mofokeng as Mandela’s chief bodyguard. Eastwood sees a lot of similarities between Mandela and Freeman. “I’ve always thought he was the perfect guy to be playing Nelson Mandela,” Eastwood says. “Morgan has the same presence when he walks in the room as an actor that Mr. Mandela has as a politician walking into a room. ... They both are intelligent, and they both seem to have a lovely sense of humor and a lot of life. They both get in trouble in the same way, sometimes.” “Ssh,” Freeman interjects. “Invictus” marks the first time Eastwood worked with Freeman as a director only, not as a co-star, too. Eastwood jokes that he’s been trying to give up acting for the last decade, but roles keep coming along that he feels are right for him, among them the racist widower who becomes unlikely defender for his young Asian neighbors in last year’s “Gran Torino.” “I read it and I liked it. I said, ‘Gee, I know this guy,”’ Eastwood says. “I’ve seen this guy many times. And sometimes, these guys will grow at an older age and become more open, and sometimes they don’t. But it was fun to talk about racial relations by playing a guy who doesn’t want any part of anybody and is bitter because his neighborhood has all died off.” Eastwood wants to stick solely to directing, though he doesn’t rule out going in front of the camera again. “I’m perfectly willing and happy to have him direct from here out, and if he wants to step in front of the cameras again, that’s fine, and I’m hoping I can be there with him when he does,” Freeman says. “But

Dining Delights
New pizza restaurant has a-Peel By JULIA BIGGS Of The Edge What happens when you take a couple of extremely experienced professional chefs, give them only an authentic Italian wood-fired oven to cook with and turn them loose? You get Peel Wood Fired Pizza, a new restaurant that’s opening in the Park at Plum Creek on Dec. 15. Owners Patrick Thirion and Brandon Case have extensive knowledge of the restaurant industry. Both have worked as chefs for the past 16 years. Thirion most recently worked at the Coronado Ballroom in St. Louis as an executive chef while Case worked with him as an executive pastry chef. Thirion and Case have also worked together in the past at the Adam’s Mark hotel – Thirion as a pastry chef and Case as a night baker. In addition, Case also served as a military cook for 10 years. “Actually the military training is a lot better than it was way back in the day. They actually have certified chefs and culinary programs. It’s developed a lot more from just slinging hash as they used to say,” Case said with a chuckle. After years of working for someone else, the two men have joined forces and ventured out on their own to open Peel Wood Fired Pizza. Although the name, “Peel” is in reference to a wood peel or shovel like tool often used to slide loaves of bread or pizza in and out of an oven, don’t get the impression that this is another Italian restaurant. It’s far from that. “It’s going to be a totally different experience than just a pizza place,” Thirion said. “We’re something different.” Thirion and Case’s concept for Peel is that it’s going to be a little higher end than a typical pizza place. “Our concept, even though it's pizza, it’s going to be a totally different view of a pizza place around here,” Thirion said. “There’s a couple in St. Louis but the Midwest has not really seen this concept yet to its full potential and that’s what we hope to show.” The menu obviously centers on their pizza. “We’re doing the Neapolitan style pizza out of our wood fired oven that’s going to have a wide array of ingredients,” Thirion said. “We’ll be offering things like goat cheese and white truffle oils – much higher end ingredients – so when you order a pizza at Peel it’s going to be more of an experience, more of a dinner, rather than you’re just getting a slice of pizza.” Pizzas are 11 inches in size and come in a variety of specialty options such as Frommagio, Margherita, Coppa, Wild Mushroom, Buffalo Chicken, Chevre, Guava BBQ Chicken and Thai Red Curry to name just a few. Customers can create their own pizza or stick to the traditional meats. “Of course we’re going to offer the typical pizzas for people who like their sausage,” Thirion said. “We’re not going to be a pizza place and say you can’t come in and order pepperoni pizza. We’ll have it. We’re not trying to change that but we want to also offer the more adventurous palate something different.” Thirion described the pizzas in greater detail. “It’s going to be thin,” he said. “Closer to the New York side style where it’s really thin but it’s still crisp on the outside and chewy on the inside so it’s not like a cracker.” The pizzas will be cooking quickly in about a minute and a half within the 800 to 900 degree oven. The result is a light and airy crust.

Brandon Case, left, and Patrick Thirion, owners of Peel, stand beside a wood fire oven from Italy at their restaurant located at 921 South Arbor Vitae, Suite 101, in Edwardsville. From the dough to the sauces, Thirion emphasized that they’ll be using only the freshest ingredients. “We’re not buying anything prepared and when available we’ll be using local produce,” he said. Besides pizzas, Peel is offering a variety of different appetizers, salads, soups, sandwiches and pasta. Appetizers, designed to be shared, will include a smoked salmon flatbread, a wood fired goat cheese dip and an antipasto that can serve up to four and will include a wide variety of Italian imported meats and cheeses. Sandwiches will be served on either focaccia or ciabatta bread. “All our breads will be baked from scratch here in house,” Case said. A few of the sandwich options include a Chicken Mozzarella, the Tacchino featuring smoked turkey and Fontina cheese and The Italian Job that has Coppa Ham, tomato, fresh mozzarella and a basil vinaigrette. “We have an Italian company in St. Louis that makes their own sausages that we’ll be bringing in to do the Italian Sausage sandwiches,” Thirion said. There’s also a selection of pastas, a kids’ menu and a line of desserts that Thirion said were one of Case’s specialties. “A couple of desserts will actually be pizzas and then a couple we’re doing are French influenced desserts,” Thirion said. “We’ll be doing a verrine which is a classical French dessert.” The verrine has a layering of spiced red wine, vanilla bean pot de crème and blood orange gelee. “A lot of people have desserts but they kind of forget about the dessert menu and just either buy cheesecake or do something real quick just to say they have dessert, but we really want to make the whole experience where they are going to order an appetizer, a pizza and then two or four people might share a dessert,” Thirion said. The décor in Peel is contemporary with an open kitchen concept that puts the wood fired oven as the focal point of the restaurant. All of
the items on the menu that are hot are cooked entirely in the wood fired oven that has been handmade and imported from Italy. “This is strictly a wood burning oven. Everything is coming out of that oven,” Thirion said. “We’re not using gas or electric. We’re cooking strictly with wood.” Thirion pointed out that this was an unusual concept because most restaurants that claim to have a brick oven are in actuality cooking with gas, but not at Peel. “You’ll be able to notice in our flavors,” Thirion said. “When you’re cooking with wood, you’re going to get a little smokiness.” He also noted that while wood fired ovens had been around for ages in Italy, it was an art form that required a lot of management and understanding since it wasn’t a consistent heat form like gas. Cooking entirely on a wood source means that fried foods are completely out. “We’re not throwing anything into a fryer. There’s no fried items on the menu,” Thirion said. “We’re doing wings but these are actually going to be wood fired in the oven, and we’re going to do a balsamic reduction instead of your typical sauces. Again somebody can still get their buffalo if they want – we’ll make our own sauce.” The atmosphere that they are striving for at Peel is a bit more of an upscale, relaxing atmosphere. A bar is front and center as you walk through the door. The separate bar area provides the perfect place for people to gather after work, nibble on appetizers and have a glass of wine. “We’re going to have a wide variety of imported and craft beers and a wide selection of wines by the bottle and by the glass so somebody can come here and make a whole evening out of it,” Thirion said. “We’re not going to have your regular domestics on tap,” Case said. “We’ll have them in bottles but we’re going to offer the customer something that you can’t get anywhere else.”
Peel won’t be offering mixed drinks either. They’ll be concentrating on the beers and wines and as Thirion said about both, “it’s there to compliment our food.” Since part of their goal is to be a more upscale restaurant, the question arose about the price of menu items. “It does seem higher end and more exclusive, but it’s not a higher end price,” Case said. “We’re trying to keep it very reasonable for what you get,” Thirion added. Clearly prices are in line with many other local restaurants. Appetizers range from a $6.99 Pizza Bianca to the Antipasto that serves four and costs $11.99. Sandwiches are priced under $10 and include a choice of macaroni gratin, herb roasted fingerling potatoes, cup of soup, side house or Caesar salad. The 11 inch pizzas range from the Build Your Own at $7.99 to the Thai Red Curry that is $11.99. Half and full size salads priced from $3.99 to $9.99 as well as several vegetarian menu items round out the menu. Peel Wood Fired Pizza will be open from 11 a.m. to 10 p.m. Tuesday through Thursday, 11 a.m. to 11 p.m. Friday and Saturday and 11 a.m. to 8 p.m. on Sunday. Carry out is available. Both Thirion and Case believe Peel will offer a lot of flexibility to customers with its diverse menu and restaurant layout that provides a separate bar. “It will be a great place where people can get together after work and not be committed to a full meal if they don’t want to,” Thirion said. “We made the menu pretty diverse where it can be quick if you want it to be, it can be a relaxing evening or it can be just after work with friends.” It may be a new concept but it’s a twist on something most Americans simply love. “We took the concept that everybody loves wings, pizza and beer and then we just took it 10 steps further to make it something different,” Thirion said.

Dining Delights Battling through the behemoth cookbooks NEW YORK (AP) – What exactly is one person supposed to do with 2,000 Italian recipes? Or 1,400 French dishes? A new generation of comprehensive (some would say behemoth) cookbooks is cramming thousands of recipes into weighty volumes, some nearly 3 inches thick and weighing more than 4 pounds. Why the heavyweights? Publishers say it’s a matter of survival, crediting the Internet and the tough economy with driving the trend. “This might be a reaction to the Internet and the encyclopedic selection
of recipes that’s at your fingertips,” says Chris S t e i g h n e r, s e n i o r e d i t o r a t Rizzoli Publications, publisher of “La Cucina,” a 4 1/4-pound, 2,000-recipe ode to regional Italian cooking. “A lot of it is about quantity now because we’re faced with the Internet,” he says. During the past four years, roughly a dozen of these monsters have crashed the landscape of five-ingredient, 30-minute meal books. “The Silver Spoon,” for example, t h e c a t e g o r y ’ s 2 0 0 5 s t a n d a rd b e a r e r, j a m s 2 , 0 0 0 I t a l i a n recipes into 1,264 pages.
For Francophiles, there is this year ’s “I Know How to Cook,” a translation of a popular French cookbook featuring 1,400 recipes over 9 7 5 p a g e s . A n d l a s t y e a r, t h e 10th anniversary edition of Mark Bittman’s “How to Cook Everything” sported 2,000 recipes. By comparison, the justr e l e a s e d “ G o u r m e t To d a y ” (from the defunct magazine) seems slender with just 1,000 recipes and pages. Most traditionally sized cookbooks clock in closer to 150 recipes. “People are demanding t h e m , ” s a y s E m i l i a Te r r a g n i ,
editorial director at Phaidon Press, publisher of “The Silver Spoon,” ‘’I Know How to Cook” and other mega-volumes. “We have over 1,000 or over 2,000 recipes and they’re still selling for $45. That’s a good price.” Giant cookbooks are n o t h i n g n e w. A s f a r b a c k a s 1896, Fannie Farmer offered more than 1,800 recipes for everything from “after-dinner coffee” to capon in aspic. The “Joy of Cooking” has had a kitchen-sink approach since it was first mass published in 1936. And Julia Child’s 1961 “ M a s t e r i n g t h e A r t o f F re n c h
Cooking” eventually filled two volumes. Such cookbooks mostly lost favor during recent decades, supplanted by slimmer and more narrowly focused volumes, many of them driven by celebrity names. Then the Internet changed how people find recipes, and bigger books have tried to bounce back. But critics say these books lack one crucial element: voice. M o s t o f t h e s e b o o k s a re l i g h t on accompanying text and p e r s o n a l i t y. Ye t a s e n s e o f voice gives cookbooks not only readability, but also credibility.

People Books Continued from Page 31 “’Mastering the Art’ had such a huge living personality behind it, and I don’t know who the author of ‘The S i l v e r S p o o n ’ i s , ” s a y s Ly n n Andriani, a senior editor at Publisher ’s Weekly who covers cookbooks. “When you have an author behind a book who has a distinct voice and gets to know their audience and seems committed, it helps a book gain a foothold culturally.” Many people are less i n t e re s t e d i n v o i c e , h o w e v e r, than in a reliable resource for one-stop shopping. For that, these books can shine. “These mammoth cookbooks have that encyclopedic quality that people find reassuring,” says Rebecca Federman, electronic resources c o o r d i n a t o r a t t h e N e w Yo r k Public Library. She also writes about the library’s culinary collection. “People use them as reference
works too, by consulting them for basic recipes.” • • • These simple steak patties from Ginette Mathiot’s “I Know How to Cook,” may resemble an all-American b u r g e r, b u t t h e i r s u b l i m e taste makes clear their French lineage. STEAK PROVENCALE Start to finish: 30 minutes Servings: 6 14 ounces sirloin steak, chopped 3 1/2 ounces button mushrooms, chopped 3 garlic cloves, crushed 1 egg Salt and ground black pepper, to taste A l l - p u r p o s e f l o u r, f o r dredging 3 tablespoons olive oil, divided In a large bowl, mix together the chopped beef, mushrooms and garlic. Add the egg, mix well, then s e a s o n w i t h s a l t a n d p e p p e r. Shape the mixture into 6 patties, then dredge each through flour to lightly coat. In a large skillet over medium-high, heat half of the
oil. Add 3 of the patties and brown for 2 minutes per side. Repeat with the remaining oil and patties. • • • Don’t be intimidated by the thought of making your own pasta. As demonstrated by this recipe for potato dumplings from the Italian Academy of Cuisine’s “La Cucina: The Regional Cooking of Italy,” it’s not much harder than playing with clay. If mushrooms aren’t your thing, try these dumplings with any assertive pasta sauce. POTATO DUMLPINGS WITH MUSHROOM SAUCE Start to finish: 2 hours (1 hour active) Servings: 4 to 6 For the pasta: 3 pounds russet potatoes 3 c u p s a l l - p u r p o s e f l o u r, plus more as needed For the sauce: 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil 1 medium yellow onion, minced 2 ounces dried porcini (or other variety) mushrooms, soaked in warm water, drained
and chopped 1 tablespoon tomato paste, diluted in 2 tablespoons water 1/4 cup red wine (optional) 1/4 cup broth, plus more as needed Grated Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese (optional) Heat the oven to 425 F. U s e a f o r k t o l i g h t l y p i e rc e each potato several times. Bake until completely soft, about 40 to 60 minutes. Cut each potato in half and scoop out the flesh. Discard the skins. In a large bowl, combine the potato flesh and just enough flour to form a smooth dough that is not sticky. You may not use all of the flour, depending on how starchy the potatoes are. Form the dough into thin cylinders, then cut them with a knife into pieces about 1 inch long. Using your thumb, press each piece of dough against a floured fork, then let it fall
onto the work surface. When all the pieces have been made, cover them with a cloth and let them rest. Meanwhile, in a medium saucepan over medium, heat the olive oil. Add the onion and mushrooms and saute until the onions are golden. Add the tomato paste mixture and red wine, if using. Add the broth, reduce the h e a t t o l o w, a n d c o o k s l o w l y, stirring now and again, adding a little more broth if the mixture dries out. While the sauce cooks, bring a large saucepan of salted water to a boil. Add the potato dumplings and cook just until they float. Use a slotted spoon to transfer them to a deep serving dish, alternating them with layers of the sauce. If desired, sprinkle with cheese. (Recipe from the Italian Academy of Cuisine’s “La Cucina: The Regional Cooking of Italy,” Rizzoli, 2009)
