    CITY AND COUNTY OF SAN FRANCISCO LONDON N. BREED, MAYOR OFFICE OF SMALL BUSINESS REGINA DICK-ENDRIZZI, DIRECTOR Legacy Business Registry Staff Report HEARING DATE DECEMBER 9, 2019 MUMS – HOME OF SHABU SHABU Application No.: LBR-2019-20-008 Business Name: Mums - Home of Shabu Shabu Business Address: 1800 Sutter Street District: District 5 Applicant: Isidore Tam, Owner Nomination Date: August 5, 2019 Nominated By: Supervisor Vallie Brown Staff Contact: Richard Kurylo [email protected] BUSINESS DESCRIPTION Mums - Home of Shabu Shabu (“Mums”) is a family-owned Japanese American restaurant located on the first floor of the Kimpton Buchanan Hotel in Japantown. The restaurant was founded in 1979 as part of a project to bring Japanese culture to San Francisco by Kintetsu Enterprises Company of Osaka, Japan. It is currently owned by former employee Isidore Tam. Over the 40 years it has been in business, Mums has remained committed to bridging Japanese and American culture through its dining space and cuisine, becoming a vital gathering place for the surrounding Japantown community. Kintetsu Enterprises Company of America was founded in San Francisco in 1961 by Kintetsu Group Holdings of Osaka, Japan. The company sought to bridge Japanese and American cultures. They began in San Francisco, which had been Osaka’s Sister City since 1957. At the time, Japantown had recently undergone redevelopment so Kintetsu brought new life to Japantown by encouraging the proliferation of Japanese businesses in the area. They opened the Kyoto Inn in 1975 and, realizing that guests needed a place to enjoy Japanese food, opened what was then called Café Mums just four years later.

  • 62. Egg Balancing at the Equinox: Good Or Bad Astronomy?
    www.astrosociety.org/uitc No. 62 - Summer 2003 © 2003, Astronomical Society of the Pacific, 390 Ashton Avenue, San Francisco, CA 94112. Egg Balancing at the Equinox: Good or Bad Astronomy? by Phil Plait Editor's Note: The changing of the seasons. We all experience them and some even look forward to them. Learning and teaching about the how's and why's of them, however, is another story, especially if you live somewhere like San Francisco. Summer is not a time of heat, but of long, cold, foggy days. The reasons for the seasons was tackled in newsletters number 29 and 30 but still many pesky misconceptions persist. One of the more amusing ones is the mysterious ability to balance eggs on end at the Vernal Equinox (curiously, no such claims are made at the Autumnal Equinox). In this issue, Phil Plait, an astronomer who has written a whole book on persistent and prevalent misconceptions and mangling of astronomy takes on this astronomical connection to egg balancing. Is the equinox a time of equality and balance, not just for the division of day and night, but for eggs, as well? Have fun with this issue and then have your students take on this bit of "Bad Astronomy" and debunk it for themselves. Introduction The Reason for the Seasons Combatting Bad Astronomy in Your Classroom What's really going on? The origins of the myth Conclusion Introduction This has to be one of the silliest misconceptions around, and it never seems to die. Every year, without fail, some TV station broadcasts a news segment showing local school children standing eggs on end on the first day of spring.

An understanding of the nesting strategies in both extinct (e.g., non-avian dinosaurs) and extant archosaurs (i.e., crocodylians and birds) is crucial for advancement of our knowledge on the evolution and diversification of this group. However, nesting methods and behaviors of non-avian dinosaurs are still poorly understood due to the limitations of the fossil record.

  • Egg Balancing and the Equinox
    Title: Bad Astronomy: Misconceptions and Misuses Revealed, from Astrology to the Moon Landing “Hoax” Author: Philip C. Plait ISBN: 0-471-40976-6 1 PPPPPP The Yolk’s on You: Egg Balancing and the Equinox onsider the humble chicken egg. C Outside, its hard white calcium shell is mostly round and smooth. It might have small bumps on it, or even tiny ridges and waves, but its overall geometry is so well defined that we use the term “egg-shaped” when we see something similarly crafted. The very word “ovoid” comes from the Latin for “egg.” Inside, we have the white part of the egg—the technical term is albumen—and the yellow yolk. This goo is what is destined to become a chicken, if we let it. Usually we don’t. Humans have all sorts of dastardly schemes planned for chicken eggs, from the sim- ple act of cooking them to such bizarre practices as frying them on sidewalks to show how hot it is and using them to “decorate” houses on Halloween night. But there is an even weirder ritual performed with the ovum of the gallus domesticus. Every year, all across the United States and around the world, this ritual is performed at the beginning of the spring season. On or about March 21, schoolchildren, newspeople, and ordinary citizens take a chicken egg and try to stand it on end. A nonscientific survey—conducted by me, by asking audience members when I give public talks and people I meet at parties or standing in line at grocery stores—shows that about one-half the population has either heard of this practice or tried it themselves.
