The Quinoa Loophole

Turns out quinoa is kosher for Passover, after rabbis argued a lot and performed a careful test to see if it would rise. It didn't.

Inspired by Jade and I planning our Passover menu.

The Ominous Adipose Icebergs

Theominousadiposeicebergs

Be on the look out for their self-titled EP, which will include the hits "Alcohol Is Like a Cruise Missile" and "Men with Small Behinds" as well as the stirring ballad "Your Adrenal Gland Is Like a Power Tool (of My Love)."

Based on this story in the Wall Street Journal, which we suggest you read post-haste.

Qi-Gong and the 18 Lohans

Qigong2

The legend of the 18 Lohan Hands winds through the storied history of the Shaolin monastery, the gauzy past of the Bodhidharma and beyond -- to the very origins of human movement. But it wasn't until the modern practice of Qigong spread to the West that the human embodiment or, perhaps more crucially, the perfect musical expression of this art could be realized.

If you have a qi blockage, Qi-Gong and the 18 Lohans will loosen it.
