Cops: Pet rescuer killed by foreclosed homeowner

By Sharon Bernstein, NBCLosAngeles.com

An animal control officer trying to save pets from a foreclosed California home was shot to death by the former owner, authorities said.

The officer had gone to the Sacramento-area home after the resident, Joseph Corey, allegedly called and said he could not care for them because he was being evicted by his bank.

The animal control officer went to the home in the community of Galt on Wednesday.

He was accompanied by a representative of the bank that had foreclosed on the home, the Sacramento sheriff?s department said.

Corey, who had been evicted from the home the day before, answered their knock with a shotgun blast through the door, sheriff?s spokesman Sgt. Jason Ramos?said in a press release.

The shot hit the animal control officer in the upper body, Ramos said.

The officer, whose name is being withheld while officials notify his family, was pronounced dead at the scene, and Corey held police at bay in a standoff that lasted several hours, Ramos said.

Corey was arrested at about 5 a.m. Thursday, Ramos said.

Selby's Food Corner: Pasta de Waraku - Indonesian Feast with a ...

Pasta de Waraku is one of my favorite places for having fusion Japanese pasta and pizza. I was pretty?intrigued? when I received an invitation from Pasta de Waraku to try their?new special menu - Indonesian Feast with a Twist, which they claimed as a unique twist to Japanese dishes with the richness of Indonesian taste that will tantalize the buds.

Together with some other food bloggers and media, we tried the below dishes:

Appetizer

Korokoro Tofu - Rp. 25.000

Deep Fried Seasoned Tofu

Calamari - Rp. 35.000

Fried Squid Rings

Edamame - Rp. 10.000

Soybean Pods

Pizza

Salmon Pizza with Curry Sauce - Rp. 50.000 (medium), Rp. 65.000 (large)

Thin crust Pasta de Waraku pizza topped with baked salmon in curry sauce sprinkled with slice of chili, cucumber and onion. As usual, I enjoyed the thin crispy crust though I wish the topping could taste richer.

Pasta

?Beef Spaghetti with Rendang Sauce - Rp. 58.000

Not your average beef spaghetti, instead of standard bolognese sauce, they use rendang sauce which is famous known for its richness flavors and also with mince beef and quail eggs. Good thing that the rendang was not as spicy as I expected.

Fried Oxtail ala Java - Rp. 65.000

Spaghetti aglio e olio cooked with Wafu sauce, completed with fried oxtail and red bell pepper. Frankly speaking, I was not really keen to see the red chili paste on the top of this spaghetti aglio e olio.

?Traditional Fried rice with Angus beef - Rp. 65.000

The authentic taste of Indonesian traditional fried rice cooked with salted fish and shrimp paste. For the combination with Japanese dishes , use Angus beef in Teriyaki sauce and also completing with egg on top. The Angus beef was nice. The fried rice was tasty but too spicy because of the chili seeds.

Indonesian Grilled Ribs Spaghetti - Rp. 65.000

Spaghetti Aglio Olio cooked with Wafu sauce, completed with grilled ribs and fried white onion. Also served with 2 types of chili paste: red chili and green chili. If you are a chili lover, you will definitely love this dish but for me, after I ate a spoon of it, my lips and?tongue?felt like they were on fire :(

Strawberry Cheesecake Milkshake - Rp. ?28.000

I need milk to cool down of my lips and?tongue.?

Grilled Chicken Spaghetti- Rp. 58.000

Signature?Spaghetti aglio Olio cooked with Wafu sauce, completed with juicy grilled chicken covered chili paste on top.?I didn't try this one because I still felt the burning sensation on my lips and?tongue :(

Dessert

?Baby Hanito - Rp. 32.000
Juicy Fruits (left)

Banana Crumble (middle)

Candyland (right)
The name "Baby Hanito" really represents the size of it. It's a 6 cubes of honey toast with toppings. For the toppings, I still prefer the ones that are put on those?original Hanito?like Hanito Macha Red Bean and Hanito Earthquake.

All prices are subjected to service charge and PB1 tax.

Current currency: 1 USD = Rp. 9.600

At the end of this food tasting, it was hard for me to enjoy the food because I'm not a chili person. There are so many Indonesian food without chili. Why all these pastas and pizza need to have chili? Does food with chili really represent Indonesian food? I understand a lot of people love chili but there are people and also children who can not tolerate it. I guess it would be wise to add other non chili pasta and pizza with Indonesian twist to the menu.

Cupid Skipped Town: 'The Irony of Fate' | Sound On Sight

Posted on November 24, 2012 By Lital Khaikin Spotlight

The Irony of Fate, or Enjoy Your Bath

Written by Emil Braginskiy, Eldar Ryazanov

Directed by Eldar Ryazanov

Soviet Union, 1975

As the Holy Grail of Soviet cinema, The Irony of Fate, or Enjoy Your Bath is responsible every year for religious gatherings of zealous Russians around television sets within a few hours of ringing in the New Year. For close to 40 years, Eldar Ryazanov?s most famous and celebrated film has enjoyed a cherished prestige comparable to that of Frank Capra?s It?s a Wonderful Life. With all of the spirited comedy, coy romance, and poetry typical of a Ryazanov film, The Irony of Fate explores the intrinsic desires and complications of everyday people in an extraordinary situation.

Bumbling Zhenya Lukashin (Andrei Magkov) will gladly tell you, a number of times, of his traditional trip to the banya with his friends on New Year?s Eve. No doubt he will inform you of the trepidations he felt as he bundled up his fianc? before stepping out of his Moscow apartment into the bitter grasp of the evening. What he certainly could not foretell was his drunken displacement into Leningrad, now St. Petersburg, and the resulting encounter of one fateful night?a sleepless nocturne that would shake several lives. The film reflects the budding relationship between hapless Zhenya and the lovely Nadya Shevelyova (Barbara Brylska).

Typical not only of Ryazanov?s work but many Soviet films en bloc, sociopolitical references easily find their way into the script. Were it not for the insufferable monotony of Soviet urbanization and architecture, Zhenya would have never unlocked the door to Nadya?s Leningrad apartment, firmly believing that he was home in Moscow. In its favour, such monologue plays only a fleeting note in the orchestration of the film?s events, with the script instead prioritizing the relationships between the protagonists and, consequently, their significant others. As a result, the lack of brooding and blatant symbolism makes The Irony of Fate entirely welcome to audiences far beyond Russia?s glorious Ryazanov cult.

That is not to say that the film is entirely purged of ideological struggles. Several poignant scenes explore Nadya?s tragic resolve to her comfortable stability with Ippolit (Yuriy Yakovlev) and thus conceding her desire for sensuality and stimulating companionship. Zhenya is torn between the fianc?e waiting for him in his apartment and the gravity of his encounter. An unprecedented New Year?s Eve in Leningrad tolls the bells of possibility, affirming that greatness and true passions are inaccessible to those incapable of the ludicrous. When Nadya proclaims ?We?ve gone a little bit insane?, all the distance and impediments, which were for some quenching moments boldly brushed aside, crumble down like the wretched concrete of faceless buildings in disrepair.

With all of the inherent complexities of conflicted and mature romance, The Irony of Fate ambles along with the simplicity and lightness of child?s play. A cheeky Cupid tosses the dice on protagonists suppressing the suffocation they feel in their respective situations, and idealizes two soul-mates meeting under the most improbable circumstances. She is a school-teacher of literature, he is a doctor. Both share verse through guitar. Both are touched by an unrelenting sensitivity to the subtle and romantic. The complications of their long-standing relationships and engagements are almost trivialized in favour of developing their romance. Does this inadvertently glorify the selfish undercurrents that sweep Nadya and Zhenya into a meandering dance, quarantining them from their existing relationships? Perhaps. This may very well be a question posed by abandoned Galya (Olga Naumenko) and humiliated Ippolit. Without the sympathetic characters and idealism, we are left with a man who ends up in a stranger?s apartment and plays a crucial role in the unmaking of her current relationship.

The crochet of music and poetry that plays an integral role in crafting the character dynamics is a nostalgic treasure for lovers of Soviet cinema. The magical melancholy of Mikhail Tariverdeiev and a sprinkling of poetry by cherished names like Yesenin and Akhmadulina make for a soundtrack that gives voice to unspoken sentiments and even delivers some of the most electrifying instants between Nadya and Zhenya. Tinged with quiet sorrow and longing, the classic melodies are a most graceful addition to a film that otherwise incorporates a fair share of physical comedy and the tongue-in-cheek humour of Zhenya?s ?Aria of a Visitor from Moscow?.

The Irony of Fate never fails to turn sympathetic smiles into the cheek-rupturing grins of diehard dreamers. In the glittering night washed over the soulless landscape of utilitarian Soviet apartment blocks, two stranded romantics find each other and are forced to reconcile their lives on the cusp of the New Year. When the daylight falls on the white-washed facades that spun this wild story, they are left with the concrete of their own realities and decisions to make in their relationships. It is a fool?s game, but even the most implausible romance became entirely possible on New Year?s Eve somewhere over Leningrad and Moscow.
