SAN FRANCISCO RESTAURANTS CAN’T AFFORD WAITERS. SO THEY ARE PUTTING DINNERS TO WORK.

San Francisco- Greek restaurant with a serves spit-fired meat two ways: in a photogenic sandwich, or on a photogenic salad available with a glass of Greek wine. The small menu is so appealing and the place itself so charming that you almost forget, as a diner. You have to do much of the work of dining out yourself. You scout your own table. You fetch and fill your own water glass and glass of your wine and go back to the counter of restaurant.

There are no servers to wait on you or at the two other San Francisco locations that Souvla has added or increasingly, at other popular restaurant that have opened in the last two years. RT Rotisserie Which is roasting cauliflower a few blocks away.  Barzotto, a bistro serving hand-rolled pasta in the mission District. Media Noche is also a Cuban sandwich spot with eye-catching custom Tilework.

Inside these restaurant it’s evident that the forces making this one of the most expensive cities in America are subtly altering the economics of everything. Labor cost have highly and restaurant worker many housing, have been moving away.

Germany’s world cup is saved in the blink of an eye (and flick of a foot)

Germany’s world cup is saved in the blink of an eye (and flick of a foot)

Germany restored It’s 2018 world cup hopes with swing of Toni Kroo’s foot on Saturday night victory over Sweden from the jaws of a draw that would have felt very much like a defeat. It came on a night when the Germans produced twice shots as Sweden. And to battle back from a 1-0 deficit at halftime, and then the final part of the game play a man down after Jerome boating was sent Offwith a red card.

But Germany found a way to survive, with Kroos’s goal, on a finely orchestrated free-kick play. The goal, and the victory completely altered the dynamic at this world cup for the Germans who raced to Kroos at the corner flag and smothered him with a mix of joy and Relief.the defending champion, would somehow be out of the world cup after the first round of this game.

Four changes to the lineup and the death rattle of an early exit erased any hint of listlessness on germany’s part in this game. Over 90 minutes, the German strategy seemed rather simple: push the ball up the center or the wing, slot it wide cross it back in and crash the net. If the Swedes cleared the cycle would start all over. even after Sweden took the 1-0 lead, the Germans just resumed their attack. Crosses,  Shotes and more chances.

BRAZIL GETS ITS FIRST WIN, A TRIUMPH OF GRIT MORE THAN STYLE

BRAZIL GETS ITS FIRST WIN, A TRIUMPH OF GRIT MORE THAN STYLE

At Friday afternoon, battle going on in Russia btw brazil and Argentina. The contest this time around was for the least inspiring at the 2018 world cup. One day after Croatia slammed Lionel Messi and his teammates, sending Argentina to the brink of elimination, Neymar’s Brazil nearly ended the day with a draw against a stubborn squad from Costa Rica.

Neymar, brazil’s $300 million star, even had a penalty revoked during the second half after the referee looked at a video replay and realized Neymar had Flopprd in the area to win with four points from two games, brazil put itself in prime position to advanced from group play this game. But make no mistake, that usually captivating bunch once known for a Samba-style soccer and a array of diagonal runs, looked nothing more than basic for all but final minutes of a second match.

Brazil does not have a lot of time to improve: even if it wins its group, it may have germany or what looks to be a strong mexico team in first knockout. It appeared that brazil was going to need a win against a solid Serbia team in its third match to get through to the knockout stage. Within minutes of the kickoff Friday afternoon, the whistles began rising from a crowd dominated by Brazillian fans. We know the responsibility is huge said Philippe Coutinho, who scored Brazil’s first goal.

World cup 2018, france vs Australia:

World cup 2018, france vs Australia:

France benefited from a controversial first use of video assistant refree (VAR) technology at a world cup as they labored to a 2-1 win over Australia. Antoine griezmann put lets bleus ahead with a contentious second half penalty in kazan after referee Andres cunha adjudged the forward had been fouled by Joshua Risdon having watched a replay of the incident at the side of the pitch.

Australia, who felt aggrieved as defender Risdon appeared to have touched the ball before tripping griezmann, kylian mbappe and ousmane dembele, were overwhelming favourites for the group C opener. Atletico Madrid forward griezmann produced the best of the efforts, connecting well with a powerful half volley from distance which ryan dealt with comfortably.

The lead did not last long, through, as Australia leveled with a spot kick of their own four minutes later, and this time there was no doubt about the award. Barcelona defender Samuel umtiti inexplicably handled a free kick in the box allowing socceroos captain jedinak to calmly send Lloris the wrong way.Defender aziz behich challenged pogba just inside the box only to see the Manchester united man’s effort loop over ryan and narrowly cross the line having bounced down off the underside of the crossbar, with the goal confirmed by goal line technology.

FLAG DAY: WHY WE CELEBRATE ON JUNE 14

FLAG DAY: WHY WE CELEBRATE ON JUNE 14

President harry Truman signed flag day’s permanent observance into law in 1949. The stars and stripes was authorized by congress on june 14, 1777, according to the national flag day foundation in the fifth item on the agenda that day. The entry in the journal of the continental congress reads resolved that the flag of the thirteen united states be thirteen strips alternate red and white: that the union be thirteen stars white in a blue field representing a new constellation.

In 1885, Bernard john cigrand a 19-year old teacher in a one-room waubeka, Wisconsin, place a 10 inch 38-star flag in an inkwell and had his students write essays on what the flag meant to them.

OFFICIAL ADOPTION

He called june 14^th the flag’s birthday. Stony hill school is now a historical site. President Woodrow wilon issued the flag day proclamation on may 30, 1916.

President harry Truman later signed flag day permanent observance into law in 1949.

Flags should be displayed from sunrise to sunset on buildings and flagpoles. If you’re feeling extra patriotic, you can fly the flag 24-hours a day if the flag is properly illuminated. Thinking about doing a DIY outfit to show your patriotism. According to U.S flag code, no parts of the flag should be used as sportwear or costume. Instead, opt for a patch or a lapel flag pin, which should be word over your heart.

This is a movie set to high speed and high volume, and that dazzle more that patches over rudimentary problems like, I dunno, being not that original. Put the two movies side by side and it’s essentially one loop. Mr.incredible, elastigirl and their two kids violet and dash appeared ready at the end of their last adventure to embrace their nietzschean will to power in ways that were productive to society. But that were just a head fake. Their special abilities are illegal once more. The programs is being shut down.
