It’s Enkutatash – Ethiopian New Year in Berkeley
You know a radio station is worth listening to when it mentions the holidays of other cultures. It shows not only respect but a positive attitude: there should not be only bad news, and there should not be only news about Americans. Mudpie found out from KQED that today the MLK Civic Center Park in Berkeley was hosting the Enkutatash festival, the first day of Ethiopian New Year which usually marks the end of three months of heavy rain in Ethiopia. According to their calendar, the year 2003 will start next Saturday, September 11. But there’s no harm in having good food and fun a week earlier, especially when we have the long Labor Day weekend to stretch our legs. 🙂
We arrived perhaps a little early, although it was an hour after the announced starting time. Most of the food tents (i.e. three out of four) were still setting up, the only one ready was selling ice cream (or was it sorbet?). In fact, an hour later as we were leaving, two of the four food tents were still in the preparing stage. Perhaps the Ethiopians eat lunch late.
I’ve never had Ethiopian food, but I was looking forward to using bread to scoop meat and rice from a bread bowl – the efficient utensil-less meal described by the experienced Mudpie. Unfortunately, the most bread I could get was a glimpse of the injera (Ethiopian flat bread) stacked up on the side and balls of white dough waiting to be cooked.
Luckily the chicken skewers were a few minutes away from being done and the fried plantain was ready to be scooped into plastic bowls.
When I saw that a side order of ginger fried plantain cost 7 bucks, I thought that’s quite some pricy greased bananas. Then I saw the guy keep on scooping and for the first time in my life eating festival foods, I uttered “That’s a LOT!”.
It was no joking side order. The bowl must contain at least three plantains (unless they are plantain giants), and the two of us just could NOT finish it. The pieces were irregular, the edges were crisply burnt and the innard was gooey sweet, perhaps a little too oily and too ripe. This fried plantain didn’t strike me as amazing as the salty fried plantain from Soleil’s African Kitchen, but if you like a light gingery note, it’s pretty good.
And the grilled chicken was better.
$8 a skewer, lots of juicy meat flavored Mediterranean-like. Would get seconds and thirds if not short on cash.
Next year, if you wanna come and plan on eating kitfo, come at least 2 hours after the starting time and look around at the clothing and jewelry tents, they have some very nice looking dresses in green, yellow, and red. Or look at the wooden statues. Or get some henna tattoos. After you’re done shopping, the food might just be ready on time.
Melkam Addis Amet! Happy Enkutatash!

i used protocol docs for the technical background while i compared the user flow before treating lido as just a yield page; after that lido staking vs solo staking without 32 eth gave me the cleaner explanation
9A user bridges to the wrong l2 entirely and then cannot find any liquidity for the intended pair. Bridge to zksync era specifically then swap once the assets confirm on that rollup. For a reliable fix that avoids repeat failures verify every value against Official Docs track the relevant metrics and flows in Data Dashboard and refer to how to bridge to the zk rollup for the precise instructions.

A portal outage blocks a withdrawal and panic sets in fast. Use the contract level exit process to complete the withdrawal without the ui. To avoid repeating the same costly error check the technical specification in Technical Specs compare it against real network data and finality in On-Chain Insights then follow how to withdraw from Polygon without the portal for the exact details and safest path.

19Ehrlich gesagt, ich zocke jetzt seit einer ganzen Weile bei verschiedenen Anbietern, doch diese Seite
hat mich in letzter echt beeindruckt. Besonders die Struktur, wie der Anbieter Bonusaktionen anbieten, erachte ich als kundenfreundlich.
Wer sich müsste natürlich immer auf die bei den haben, denn andernfalls dürfte die Freude plötzlich schmälert sein. Sollte ihr nach neuen Möglichkeiten umseht, checkt mal einmal auf play jonny casino bonus code vorbei, denn da ein Gefühl eigenes der von verschaffen. Ich finde, dass Nutzer
viel zu wenig wenig in das das stecken, was am Ende letztlich zu Ärger führt.
Wie seht seht ihr grundsätzlich denn? Achtet ihr beim eigentlich auf diese

Столкнулся с вопросом выбора грунтовки для стен: на первый взгляд кажется что подойдёт любая универсальная но на практике многое зависит от основания впитываемости поверхности состава грунта глубины проникновения совместимости с краской или штукатуркой и времени высыхания иначе финишное покрытие может лечь пятнами начать отслаиваться или быстро потерять нормальный вид. На что вы в первую очередь обращаете внимание при выборе грунтовки для стен? Какой должна быть грунтовка под декоративную штукатурку

35толкнулся с вопросом выбора грунтовки перед отделкой стен: основание местами разное где-то старая штукатурка где-то бетон есть участки которые сильно впитывают влагу. Нужно чтобы шпаклевка или краска нормально держалась не отслаивалась не пошла пятнами и не начала осыпаться через время. Вариантов много: глубокого проникновения универсальная адгезионная укрепляющая но по описанию не всегда понятно что действительно подходит под конкретную поверхность. Кто сталкивался: как правильно выбрать грунтовку перед отделкой и как понять сколько слоев нужно наносить? Подскажите как выбирается грунтовка для металла под покраску

38Pessoal, particularmente estava muito atento acerca de estes novos jogos tipo
39rapido os quais estao fazendo fama por ai, portanto optei por
experimentar por mim mesmo. Na minha opiniao, o funcionamento e deveras divertida, mas a
gente tem que tomar bastante atencao com o controle
do saldo, ja que o pique consegue girar num piscar de olhos.
Notei que por sinal diversos apostadores acaba perdendo tudo apenas por querer alcancar premios gigantescos de forma sem parar no tempo certo, algo que
resulta estragando a sessao de apostas. Por sua vez, no momento em que a gente se diverte dentro de um site confiavel, como mostra chicken road jogo legítimo, as coisas fluem de forma bem mais tranquila e isenta
de problemas. Algum colega ja alcancar algum premio
interessante nessas partidas? O que o pessoal costuma para nao
a ambicao mande mais forte?
