All four of us drove up to Beech Street Cafe this morning for brunch. The wallpaper there was wild, and so were the floors! The food was pretty good too. Meg and Greg pointed out to us that itâs somewhat of a tradition in LA for restaurants to have delicious food and terrible service. They were nice there, but pretty slow and unattentive. This so far has been true everywhere we ate today.
Greg bounced after brunch, but the three of us checked out various shops around town. We hit up the massive Amoeba record store. They had so much stuff there! No Snarky Puppy though. For some reason, whenever I go into a record store, my first instinct is to see if they carry the Pups. Not today!
Tonight was the LOST show, We Have to Go Back! As soon as we walked up to the John Anson Ford Amphitheatre, we were instantly stoked about the show. We honestly hadnât thought much about it on this trip so far, but walking up to it, they had some great auditory atmosphere going. There was a distinct jungle vibe with the smoke monster sounding in the distance. Several people came dressed in Dharma Initiative jumpers; it was a huge group of nerds and I loved it. The line for merch was immense, but we waited.
Michael Giacchino and Carlton Cuse did a Q&A before the show, and a (probably, SURELY) inebriated Josh Holloway (Sawyer) emerged with a microphone to goof off a little. When they finally talked him backstage again, he shouted, unprovoked, that Giacchino wears g-strings.
The Hollywood Symphony did an amazing job playing the music of LOST. In fact, most of the musicians that performed tonight also recorded the songs originally for the show! A few more special guests came out periodically during the show, including Sam Anderson (Bernard), Sonya Walger (Penny), and Mark Pellegrino (Jacob). They took little breaks between tunes to have the actors come up and read parts of the script. It was cool to hear the language used in the script itself.
The unfortunate part of the show was the insane wind and noise. The venue is outside, so we could hear the state birdâhelicoptersâflying over constantly. With the whole California-is-a-water-free-wasteland thing going on, the fall-bringing Santa Ana winds brought loads of dust with them. Every minute or so weâd hear the trees rustling, which was our cue to shield our faces from the incoming dust cloud. They even had to take down the projection screen during intermission because of the strong winds. Despite all these hiccups, it was a great show! I think it was still totally worth the tripânot to mention all the other great stuff weâve been doing with the Sadlers. I do not regret this impulse trip.
After the show, Emily and I ate at STOUT, a burger joint that was highly recommended. I can easily see why, too. Itâs very similar to Goodfriend in a lot of ways. The burger recipes are unique and extremely delicious, and they pair each burger with a beer as well. I should definitely go back.
On January 20, the Center on the United States and Europe (CUSE) at Brookings and the German Marshall Fund of the United States (GMF) hosted Federica Mogherini, EU high representative for foreign affairs and security policy, for a public address on the European Union’s foreign policy priorities. In her remarks, High Representative Mogherini explored the value of the transatlantic relationship in a volatile and interdependent world.
Federica Mogherini became high representative of the EU in November 2014. As the EU foreign policy chief, she represents the EU internationally, coordinates the work of all EU commissioners in charge of external relations portfolios, and chairs the monthly councils of EU foreign affairs ministers. Previously, HR/VP Mogherini was Italy's minister for foreign affairs and a member of the Italian Parliament.
Brookings Vice President for Foreign Policy Martin Indyk provided introductory remarks. Following High Representative Mogherini’s remarks, GMF President Karen Donfried moderated a question and answer session. Photography by Chris Maddaloni.

On April 10, 2017, the Center on the United States and Europe (CUSE) and the Hutchins Center on Fiscal and Monetary Policy at Brookings, in collaboration with the Robert Bosch Stiftung, hosted a discussion exploring the broad set of political, social, and economic phenomena driving the rise of populism in the United States and Europe, and possible responses to them. The event also launched the “Brookings – Robert Bosch Foundation Transatlantic Initiative,” a new collaboration that will produce nonpartisan research and analysis and sustain dialogue to reinvigorate transatlantic collaboration on global issues.
The event featured a conversation with French Ambassador to the U.S. Gérard Araud, Nicholas Eberstadt of the American Enterprise Institute, and Brookings Robert Bosch Senior Fellow Constanze Stelzenmüller. David Wessel, director of the Hutchins Center, moderated the discussion. Brookings President Strobe Talbott and Robert Bosch Stiftung Chief Executive Officer Uta-Micaela Dürig offered introductory remarks.

Charlottetown, P.E.I.-----I've got to vent/lament abit about this winter, s'cuse please! It's been arbsolutely PAFETIC around here in terms of photographic opportunities. Many dull, overcast days which, I find, tends to make for dull pictures. Very little snow, and what snow there's been gets dirty and disappears quickly. Or I've been too busy with higher priorities, or it's too durn COLD to go tramping around outdoors with a camera. Talk about flusteration! And P.E.I., pretty as it most assuredly is, lacks the more dramatic landscapes of my much-larger home province on the mainland, New Brunswick. I thought I'd be able to extract more images from the place than I've thus far been able to do. Maybe I'm just running out of inspiration and need to take a break (although, certainly, the external conditions haven't helped much). In reviewing recent additions to my photostream, I notice lots of 'gimmicky' stuff as opposed to straight-ahead photography. Honestly, this is not my preference. I'd rather keep the gimmicks to a minimum, but I just don't have the time or money to go running all over the island on any kind of regular basis in pursuit of the perfect picture. On the other hand, if I stay in town . . . Charlottetown is an interesting and orderly little old city, but it's not Saint John. It's not really an ocean port, for one thing. There's nothing remotely like the Bay of Fundy. Another feature of SJ I find myself missing (and it's something I took for granted, having lived there so many years) is the variation in elevation. For the most part, that's a non-factor here on the island, and you'd better believe the flat terrain makes it more challenging to find an interesting POV. I miss the scenic and mighty Saint John River with it's islands, bays, tributaries and Reversing Falls (P.E.I.'s rivers are small, quiet streams). Perhaps it's beginning to sink in, a clearer realization of what I left behind. Don't get me wrong: I enjoy living here. There are a number of advantages in comparison with my old hometown. The water quality is better, the air noticeably cleaner, the run-down areas notably smaller and fewer. And the people are, quite possibly, a little friendlier. But in all honesty, speaking strictly from the perspective of those aforementioned photographic opportunities, I'll take the grittiness of old Saint John any day.
Ronie Midfew Arts presents the LOST Underground Art Project at Gallery 1988 on Melrose Ave in Los Angeles. After nearly 4 months of LOST inspired artwork being created and sold as prints on damoncarltonandapolarbear.com, the 16th and final piece is revealed at an exhibition of all the original works, along with dozens of additional LOST artwork done in various mediums. Fans lined up for more than a day to be the first to witness the unveiling and get access exclusive LOST goodies, including a t-shirt based on one of the most popular prints. All artwork was available for purchase, signed by the artist and LOST executive producers Damon Lindelof and Carlton Cuse. For those that missed the event, the work will be on display exclusively at Gallery 1988 through December 24th, 2009.

Indecent Obsession Kiss me Lyrics:
X-cuse me for staring, your looks have me blinded,
you want to touch me, so don't try and fight it,
and kiss me...
I'd walk your sweet curves for days without water,
my drink is your lips don't you think you outta,
just kiss me...
Blond and ambitious you're dancing with wild boys,
melting the ice round my heart, girl, with your voice
Strawberry lips saying, Baby I want you,
Raising my fever tonight so why don't you
just kiss me, oh woh oh, kiss me...
This conversation is making me nervous,
please pay attention, imagine we're lovers,
and kiss me...
You turn me on, turn me off like a flashlight,
feel like a blindman who's taking the night-flight,
so kiss me...
I am the mirror who holds your reflection,
you can't resist me, I am your infection...
Strawberry lips saying, Baby I want you,
Raising my fever tonight so why don't you
just kiss me, oh woh oh, kiss me...
Strawberry lips call my name so inviting,
can't think of anything else more exciting,
so kiss me, oh woh oh, kiss me
(nanananananana)
Dressed to the teeth in your soft skin and perfume,
only my heart cuts the silence in your room...
Strawberry lips saying, Baby I want you,
Raising my fever tonight so why don't you
just kiss me, oh woh oh
Strawberry lips are my favorite flavour,
drinking their colour is all that I'm made for,
so kiss me, oh woh oh, kiss me, oh woh oh
kiss me, oh woh oh, kiss me, oh woh oh...
Strawberry lips call my name so inviting,
can't think of anything else more exciting,
so kiss me, oh woh, kiss me, oh woh oh...
