Do they have good french food in montreal. Find a sandwich shop that serves this. I cant find this sandwich anywhere in the states. even in new orleans, one of the best sandwiches I have ever had. pan bagnat I think it originated in southern france when the farmers would just get whatever was available for a lunch. It mean wet bread, the juices from the fillings soak into the bun. pesto, olive oil, balsamic vinegar

Sounds like some nice places, I was checking out one menu at restaurant lemeac and it had one dish on its input menu

"Crab Cake, slut sauce and julienne cucumbers 13"

slut sauce? maybe that was the google translation lol

At home sick, been watching docs and reading all day and messing around with recording equipment for two days, feel like getting drunk after being inside so long. Hate being cooped up

Vice has a pretty good doc from 2012 about venezuela


This is more dialogue in this doc a few months ago but gives a pretty good idea into the two sides in Egypt.


This is a live blogger from cairo named Wafaa Badry and he printed a link to this footage from alexandria, " Badry says TV stations throughout the country broadcast this video from Alexandria, which allegedly shows members of the Muslim Brotherhood pushing an opposition member from a water tank onto a rooftop. As the man lay unmoving on the cement a second supporter walks up and casually bashes in his skull. " Pretty ugly video

King Of Coke: Living The High Life

Discover how a young dentist secretly built a cocaine empire across America that produced millions of dollars' worth of revenue during the '80s.This is the true-crime story of the multimillion-dollar yuppie drug ring run by a then, twenty-six year old Larry Lavin and two of his classmates. In the high-flying 1980's, Larry Lavin was a clean-cut, Ivy-League-educated dentist living the good life in suburban Philadelphia. But, what his upper crust neighbours didn't know was that Lavin led a double life - one that would finally be exposed by a shocking narcotics investigation. Awash in sex, drugs and money, Lavin oversaw a cocaine conglomerate, buying and selling enough white powder to anesthetize thirteen Eastern seaboard states ... until the FBI cracked the ring.

There are a few good docs on here. Most docs are about a bunch of british and european punters who fall in love and get married and stay there. Some of these docs are about bar girls but most are about the girls you meet on the foreign singles sites and they get married to alot of the punters. These guys are all working class/middle class guys who live like kings in alot of countries

Asiatraveller has Blip has some of the banged up abroad and alot of these on there. I wish these vids had more of thai food on there, thai and southeast asian food is probably my favorite cuisine in the world outside of southern/new orleans stuff.

They may have easier way of life / living in better conditions compared to their home countries but living like kings? Not even close.
 
Greg watch this documentary, about the lower working class people in Japan and poverty. No NGOs crap, no statistics, none of that usual bs, just a story about a guy and his girl. Excellent piece. 9 Matty Rains


I watched it a while back. As you say, it is bereft of the usual one-sided agenda of these documentaries. One thing to notice is the guy had been living in Japan for five years but didn't seem to know Japanese.

Have you seen documentaries by Louis Theroux? Here's one of them:

 
thanks for the link rj, I see their docs on http://topdocumentaryfilms.com/ alot. Topdocumentaryfilms.com. sends out new docs to your email every week.

I saw this on vice tonight, vice usually does way too much fringe stuff for my tastes. This is what I hate about indy docs and films, I have lived in college towns alot and that crazy person screaming at the dumpster at ihop or outside a club late at night may have an interesting story to tell but does every crazy person that collects mail or make poop art worth an hour doc or film?

This is a good short though, a new piece about egypt. Vice does a good job of giving people around the world a camera and access to tell their story, much better street media than most major western media outlets like bbc or american media. The more I read and learn about the Egyptian situation the more confused I am. Obama had tons of anger directed at him by Egyptian protesters who felt he was supporting the muslim brotherhood, as if the west would really desire Salafists or Islamicists, but the Obama administration has to figure out a way legally to continue military aid if this is determined to be a coup. Morsi wasnt Ahmadinejad or a radical by any means, it is so hard to figure out this revolution but the muslim brotherhood made some huge mistakes with governing for sure. Hopefully Egypt can stop the killing and start rebuilding.

Greg the Four Corners program of ABC Australia usually have good investigative reporting shows. Click on past episodes for the full episodes.

I saw this one on there today about sports betting in australia, overall very critical doc but would love to hear what xpy thinks about tom waterhouse. I have never heard of him but pretty amazing to see a bookie on friday night football discussing odds on rugby matches, sort of like calvin ayre on monday night football. Just wild to see how prevalent sports betting is in Australia. I like these docs and this channel, some pretty good ones on here. You can see full doc on tabcorp here

I am pissed I just lost 100 bucks on a race at calder. lol

this guy

720784-nathan-tinkler.jpg


A blue collar guy who ends up owning soccer and rugby teams, a horse owner and a pretty unlucky punter according to daily telegraph.

http://www.dailytelegraph.com.au/bus...-1226687804218

"At the height of his wealth and power, the embattled businessman was sinking up to $200,000 a bet on horse races during a roller-coaster three-year losing spree that yielded few winners and left him with a debt he was unwilling to pay.

In explosive court documents obtained by The Daily Telegraph, Tinkler's elusive search for a winner is laid bare.

He often splurged upwards of $500,000 a month with betting agency Luxbet, predominantly backing his own horses; predominantly losing."

His failure to pay debts prompted Luxbet to sue Tinkler in the Northern Territory Supreme Court in January, chasing $179,200.
While the betting records show extensive losses - including a 33-bet losing streak over a horror three weeks in February 2011 where he flushed $260,000 down the toilet - they also show a handful of big days out on the punt. At his local Newcastle track on March 17, 2011, Tinkler banked a cool $187,000 by backing his own horses Honourable Aussie (two bets worth $15,000 at 7/1) and Bare Bear (two bets worth $10,000 at 8/1).

On December 3, 2010, he loaded up with a $110,000 bet on Adulterer at Moonee Valley at tight odds for a payday of $366,000.

However, those wins were few and far between.

Another two-week barren spell in April 2011 cost Tinkler $174,000, while he put $200,000 on his Patinack Farm-owned Metallurgical at Randwick on December 11, 2009. It finished second, and he blew the lot."
