The Playbook

Gravy: Foster Burger Does Poutine
5339 SE Foster; Southeast; 503.775.2077
A menu refurb finds Foster Burger going a la carte and awesomely adding poutines that begin with the basic (gravy and Beecher's cheesecurds), then move onto specials like the Arleta with roasted chicken and peas, the mushrooms/ onions/ garlic Woodstock, and the belly/ bacon/ pastrami Clinton, who so loved to pork.
Hit the link for a look at the new menu

New Thai: Manao
7202 SE Milwaukie; Southeast; 503.236.0008
From a 5yr veteran of beloved Pok Pok and Ping, Manao's a brand new Sellwood Thai joint shockingly sans punny name (meaning "Family Thais" and "Thai Hard: With a Vengeance" are still available!!), and featuring a big main dining room where you won't find curry or pad thai, but instead a deep roster of regional home-cooking including plates like oyster-sauced fried wings, an aromatic chicken-leg-and-noodle stew, and stir-fried salted duck eggs.
Other unclaimed Thai-resto names include "Thai Fighter" and "Thai Cobb", but once you check out Manao's menu at ManaoPDX.com you'll understand why none of those really fit

Dockin': TechStands
TechStands help manage cables/ charging/ not scratching the hell out of your phone by offering a Lyptus wood/ aluminum pedestal with features like a felted channel to keep your device in place, plus a slanted backstand with a slot to keep the cord handy when unplugged, and, on the Droid version, magnets to activate the dock mode, which's what Otis Redding did whenever he wanted to waste some time.
Put one in your home and make yourself look at least 70% more grown-up and organized, all by visiting TechStands.com

Hey There Hoser: New Socks from Gumball Poodle
The cats behind the still-pretty-awesome Obama socks have just dropped their Fall line of worded foot-sheaths, including a blue and white number that simply reads "Sock", a black and white jam quite unstealthily calling out your Ninja status, and their first tri-colored offering with an olive drab "Zombie" against black and grey stripes, though you'd think they would have gone with Cranberry.
On your feeeeeet. On your feeeeet. Zom-bay! Zom-bay! Score them at GumballPoodle.com or a New Seasons Market near you.

007: SuperOrange Bond Shirt
Riffing on the increasingly ubiquitous meme is local tee concern SuperOrange's pistol-bearing "Keep Calm and Call Bond", so just pray you don't get Timothy Dalton, although he does have a fabulous phone voice.
That's Dr. Holly Goodhead to you, mister, unless you're wearing one of these awesome shirts procured at SuperOrange.net
