Daniel Rodríguez Herrera consideró este post, que incluye la foto de una modelo muy atractiva, digno de ser destacado en Red Liberal.
Seguramente la imagen fue razón de peso para destacar un texto que oscila entre la falta de lógica y la paranoia. En él, a partir de la retirada de una campaña publicitaria en Panamá, Manchego acusa a los homosexuales de ser una quinta columna del islamismo. El incomprensible proceso mental que le lleva a semejante afirmación tiene como punto de partida un puro prejuicio, sin mayor base en la realidad: considerar, sin información alguna, que los responsables de esta campaña son homosexuales.
A partir de ahí, la condición paranoide de Manchego queda demostrada bien a las claras. Este desorden mental puede verse en a) su obsesión con la Guerra Civil y su miedo cerval a convertirse en una nueva víctima:
"Lo sangrante, y más si lo vemos en España en descendientes de quemadores de iglesias y conventos y asesinos y torturadores de religiosos y feligreses"
Y b) el considerar el que los homosexuales sean cada vez más aceptados por la sociedad como un ataque directo contra los valores que Manchego defiende, de manera que un homosexual se convierte para la mentalidad paranoide de Manchego en un enemigo.
"En vez de exigir el cierto respeto que indudablemente merecen, llevan a cabo toda una campaña agresiva de destrucción de la normalidad en la que quieren imponer su muy particular condición y hacer de ella un arma contra los valores de todos".
The cheese roll has shrimp, chistorra sausage, jalapeno, mozzarella, queso manchego, cheddar and ajillo sauce (guajillo chile and garlic).
Las Ventanas al Paraiso "The windows to Paradise"
Km 19.5 Carretera Transpeninsular
Cabo San Lucas, San Jose del Cabo - MEXICO
In the 1970's the Mexican government designated "hot spots" for tourism development including Cancun, Ixtapa and Los Cabos. Los Cabos, which means the Capes has twin towns of Cabo San Lucas and San Jose del Cabo which are separated by 20 miles of beach coast line. Mexican developer Javier Burillo Azcarraga acquired eighteen undeveloped acres at Cabo San Lucas in the early 90's. He envisioned for the site a unique, super-luxury, boutique hotel that would stand out from the crowd and reflect Baja's indigenous culture and landscape. He brought in Atlanta-based architect and developer Hal Thannisch, Jr. to create the master plan and orchestrate the design, construction, financing, and ultimate operation of the completed resort. Thannisch hired HKS Architects of Dallas to provide architectural services, and they in turn, retained The SWA Group of Dallas to create the site plan and landscape architecture. The SWA Group developed the Las Ventanas landscape which blends the natural desert environment with the sensuality of the Mexican-style architecture to enhance the resort’s sense of authenticity. Construction began in December 1995, and the five-star Las Ventanas al Paraiso, or "Windows to Paradise," welcomed its first guests in July 1997. When guests enter Las Ventanas, they don't see all the buildings at once. Rather, the resort gradually reveals itself as guests walk down to the sea. The site plan radiates out from the open-air lobby, and every guest suite has a view of the blue Sea of Cortez. The resort resembles a small, sand and earth-colored Mexican village. The hotels opening rate was $325 a night. The 61-room Las Ventanas al Paraiso claims to have the longest celebrity client list of any hotel in the world. The discreet resort does not have a sign outside on Highway 1. Zen-inspired raked-sand entrance opens to beach views from the restaurant, private rooftop patios, and infinity-edge pools, where super-attentive pool butlers clean your smudged sunglasses and provide unlimited towel service. All over-sized guestrooms have pebble-inlaid headboards, hand-carved cedar doors, wood-burning fireplaces, and telescopes for stargazing.
Javier Burillo belongs to the Azcárraga family, owner of Televisa. He is the son of Carmela Azcárraga Milmo, sister of the late Emilio Azcárraga Milmo and daughter of Emilio Azcárraga Vidaurreta, founder of Televicentro, now Televisa. Grupo Televisa, S.A.B. is a Mexican multimedia company and the largest in Latin America and the Spanish-speaking world (Univision in the United States). The company has been led and owned by three generations of Azcárraga. Javier Burillo inherited the Ritz Acapulco Hotel from his grandfather. In 1999 he and Rosewood's Hal Thannisch proposed a $62 million, 105-room Rosewood Resort in Sonoma, CA which failed to get city's approval.
Thannisch Development Services, Inc. (TDS) specializes in complex issues of development planning, financing, interdisciplinary management, design management and implementation. Thannisch was directly responsible for the renovation of the historic Cogswell College building now the Ritz Carlton San Francisco and the redevelopment of the Mahogany Run Resort, St. Thomas, USVI. In 1985, Thannisch joined Caroline Hunt's Rosewood Hotel Group as vice president, development. Based in Dallas, he was immersed in the development of the Hotel Hana-Maui at Hana Ranch and The Hotel on the Old Course, St. Andrews, Scotland. In 1989, the Ritz-Carlton Hotel Company called on his experience to manage the feasibility, pre-development, development and construction of the Ritz-Carlton Aspen, Hotel Arts Barcelona, Spain. Thannisch brought to Rosewood its first Mexico project, Las Ventanas which has emerged as a premier five-star resort in all of Mexico.
Las Ventanas al Paraíso became the first world-class resort in Los Cabos under hotelier Edward Steiner who served the hotel from opening to 2008. The resort achieved AAA Five Diamond status under his leadership.
In December 2003 Paraiso Los Cabos, S.A. de C.V. sold Las Ventana al Paraiso to Dallas based JTL Capital in partnership with Farallon Capital Management L.L.C.for an undisclosed price. Rosewood Hotels & Resorts agreed to a long-term contract to continue management of the resort. The purchase also included land entitled for up to 30 additional villa residences as well as an unfinished Phase IV building containing 8 premier villas that JTL Capital will finish constructing in September of 2004. The transaction was a first for JTL in Mexico. Morgan Stanley Mortgage Capital provided the financing. JTL Capital, L.L.C. is a closely held, real estate investment and development concern founded in 1999 by David A. Lane and Mark J. Sullivan. JTL Capital employs a "buy and enhance" strategy that produces attractive risk-adjusted returns.
In September 2004 Ty Warner Hotels & Resorts, LLC purchased the 61-room Las Ventanas al Paraíso Resort from Dallas-based JTL Capital, LLC. According to Ty Warner, the goal is to extend and enhance the beauty and amenities at the resort. Warner believed the essential component to achieving that goal is in Rosewood Hotels & Resorts' continued operation of the resort. Ty Warner is an American billionaire who created the 1990s stuffed toy fad - Beanie Babies. At the peak of the Beanie craze in 1999, the privately owned Ty Inc. is believed to have earned over $700 million in profits in a year. The Beanie Babies phenomenon, coupled with the rise of the Internet, is cited as elevating Warner to billionaire status. Ty Warner Hotel and Resort Properties include: Four Seasons Resort The Biltmore Santa Barbara, CA, Four Seasons Hotel New York, NY and San Ysidro Ranch, Montecito, CA.
Managing Directors since Edward Steiner include: Lionel Alvarez appointed Managing Director in 2008. He previously was General Manager at at Aquapura Vale Do Douro Hotel, Portugal. Martein van Wagenberg was appointed managing director of Las Ventanas in 2011. He previously was at Rosewood Little Dix Bay in Virgin Gorda. In 2014 Rosewood named Mário Candeias the managing director of Las Ventanas. He was the Director of Operations at Pestana Hotels & Resorts in Portugal. Rosewood appointed Frederic Vidal the Managing Director of Las Ventanas al Paraíso in 2014. Previously he was Managing Director for YOSH Hospitality, a company managing palaces and villas in the United Arab Emirates.

Mac & Evelyn stayed for dinner after Maker Fair yesterday. It was the first time we've eaten together since NZ. We cracked open the wine we shipped back from our trip.
We started with the Te Mata Bullnose and followed with a Syrah from Unison. Both were delicious. I preferred the Bullnose.
We paired the wines with quince, manchego, and some Marcona almonds.
The meal;
- Dukkah crusted lamb rib chops with agave nectar
- Peas and feta with olive oil, lemon juice, black pepper, and mint
- Grilled asparagus, zucchini, squash, and carrots
We had a great night recapping the highlights of our trip to NZ:
- Christmas eve in the hotel bar in Auckland with the 13th best bartender in NZ. Pilots, Aussie couple, the Japanese chef/sculptor, and the wannabe terrorist.
- Caves of Waitomo and our guide who couldn't stop flexing for the ladies. The bad photos, smelly wet suits, awesome glow worms.
- Taupo, and the last minute fishing license. The wine shop steward who recommended all the right places in Hastings. Fishing - no fish. Gyros by the lake. We stayed in a hostel, drank RBVs and listened to music till way too late.
- Hastings and the wine tour. We skipped the bicycles and hit 5 times as many wineries in the car. Esk Valley with the old ladies and the cat. Te Mata with the ivy covered buildings, the goldfish ponds and Coleraine, the best wine NZ has ever produced. Craggy wine, looked like a Napa style production with a beautiful cellar, restaurant, and grounds. Too many more to mention. We stayed in that motel, watched Australia, and marveled at the size of the family staying in the room next to us. Oh, can can't forget the crazy Thai dinner where they tried, unsuccessfully, to re-create Mac's Mee Grab.
- On to the Farm outside Wanganui. Farmer Mike was great. Went for a hike. Got chased by cows. Worst allergy attack of our lives. Dinner was great. Got really drunk and talked about global warming. Chelsey shipped Mike & family a bunch of Levis.
- Wellington was all about the Weta Cave and the National Museum.
- Ferry ride to the south island was beautiful. We got very lucky withe the sun. Most just see clouds.
- Drive all the way down to Christchurch along the coast. Beautiful. Stopped in Kaikoura for lunch. Terrible nachos. Terrible food. I mean really terrible food. Attacked by seagulls on the beach as we ate.
- Stopped at a roadside lobster shack. 64 dollars for a cold lobster we all split. 2 dollars more for sauce. 2 dollars more to heat it up. Not a good call. We all hate lobster, but it was one of those things you have to do while in NZ on the south island. Funny.
- Christchurch. Loved it. New Years Eve. Casino. Ev lost her license. Found it on our return pass through CC. Lots of walking. Lots of pics. Picked up motorcycle.
- Long first ride to Queenstown. Howling wind nearly threw me off the bike. Beautiful mountains & rivers. We took a break to walk through the lupine and down to a small creek. Stopped later at Lake Tekapo and Lake Pukaki which were stunning.
- Queenstown. Stayed at The Rees. Super nice hotel. Fishing. Resort town. Fun.
- Te Anau. Kayaking on Milford Sound. Sand flies from hell. The 'training' before getting out on the water, and away from the flies was torture. The flies got trapped in the splash guard and bit our feet the entire time. Saw a sea lion. No dolphins. Got some sun. Rare. Good times.
- Glaciers were beautiful. Glenorchy, which I missed b/c I didn't want to ride @ night was beautiful. Death ride for Mac, Ev, & Chelsey killing all kinds of creatures on the road. Lots of screaming.
- The train story.

- Mac & Evelyn flew back to Auckland. Then visited Rotorua.

these fried cheese tapas were served with Romesco sauce, a tomato/almond mix. They were my surprise favourite dish of the evening! For more photos on my tapas-making class at UBC go to: www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.400178220024931.92778.1...
adapted from this recipe from Naturally Ella:

undeniably, her photo is WAY better than mine - ok, the rest of the pan looked icky, so i zeroed in on the goods. Pretty much followed the recipe to a T except, the eggs weren't cooking on top (at ALL!) and you can see that my asparagus is somewhat thin and I didn't want it to wither away (or to have crusty bottom eggs) and i was starving so speed became a priority too - so I threw in about a 1/4 c water, put the lid back on, turned the heat up and let it steam for about 90 seconds. That did the trick. Perfection. Yum.
