Bay Area Sushi Bars Face Daunting Supply Shortages
SAN FRANCISCO (CBS) – Bay Area sushi bars and other restaurants that rely heavily on Japanese seafood are facing shipping delays and supply shortages following last week’s earthquake and tsunami.
At Umi on Potrero Hil, owner and executive chef Stewart Chen has a large variety of fish from the Japanese markets.
“We have sea bass, tako (octopus), tobiuo (flying fish),” said Chen. “All this is from Japan, from all over Japan.”
About half the fish Chen serves comes from Japan, with the other half from local markets and fisheries.
But he’s already starting to see the impact of the earthquake on overseas deliveries.
“There are a lot of delays, especially the fish that might be a special request. They have been saying, we don’t have that,” he said.
Umi is one of several sushi restaurants in the Bay Area that is expecting long-lasting effects from the disaster in Japan.

Disaster and death of an untold magnitude and all disloyal and her buddies can do is joke about the dead...oh my yes...another absolutely BEAUTIFUL display of conservative compassion.
It warms the heart of my cockles!
I thought it was funny, especially since the article was from a San Francisco station, home of those peace loving liberals. This is what is most important to them.

Japan's earthquake death toll set to hit 25,000 as it emerges ANOTHER town has 10,000 people missing...

just because libs do it, doesn't make it right. good lord, so they do it too means you doing is right...how much bullshit are you going to peddle today?
how is obama lacking leadership in the japan crisis?
you were all over the left when they made comments like that about bush...great...so now you're going to perpetuate the never ending partisan bullshit..."bravo"
Yeah, you're right.....I'll refrain from the "counselor" tag....
How about, "So screw you, nosepicker"...???
Obama does have better things to do and other things on his mind, I get it....for instance...

President Barack Obama will take his first official trip to Brazil this weekend where he will speak in the popular Cinelandia Square in downtown Rio de Janeiro.
The Obama family will also take in the sights in Rio. A trip to Corcovado mountain, where the Christ the Redeemer statue stands (France gave us Lady Liberty, gave Brazil Jesus) is supposedly on the itinerary. What trip to Rio would be complete without it?
No rush......those dead Japs can wait and no one is glowing in the dark over there yet....Libya is back in good hands....and the White House proposal to sweeping revisions to U.S. copyright law is going ahead....

wtf do expect obama to do? go to japan and shut down the reactor? he has ordered troops to assist the help with the dead and the living....bush didn't cancel everything on his because of the tsunami
how dishonest can you get?
Well sure, why not.....the pinheads expected Bush to start driving a school bus to evacuate people from Katrina and carry in food and water on his back during the height of the storm, while Nagin and Governor sipped cocktails or whatever the hell they did do.....
Its the double standard, dope..that needs to be pointed out at every opportunity....the bullshit that no matter what a conservative does, its evil and no matter what a lib. does, its righteous....and thats the way it is

What a BS analogy. Katrina was our national disaster, the Japan earthquake isn't. Why don't you mention that bush didn't travel to Thailand after the tsunami in 2004? At least you'd be comparing apples to apples.
My op says nothing about Katrina...that was mentioned to show how the left uses tragedy as a matter of course to score political points...
Whats Bush traveling to Thailand have to do with anything....
did I say Obama needed to travel to Japan or Libya or Egypt or anywhere else....?
You're one of the pinheads that thinks Bush should have personally saved the victims of Katrina....while excusing the states Governor and the towns mayor...those having the immediate responsibility for the city's safety.
Obama might be trying to organize a coalition of the worlds nations to help Japan in this disaster....maybe he is...if not, he should be.....rather than golfing, visiting Rio, and filling out basketball picks....

HONG KONG—Global technology companies will likely face higher component costs and possible product shortages in the weeks ahead, after disasters in Japan over the past few days have disrupted power, production lines and supply networks.
Japan's disrupted supply networks are causing concerns about component costs and product shortages that global technology companies may face; while Internet users in Hong Kong may experience slow Internet speeds for several weeks due to damaged underseas cables.
Components such as memory chips and liquid crystal displays are used in consumer electronics ranging from smartphones to televisions, and a shortage from Japan—which was struck by a massive earthquake and tsunami on Friday followed by troubles at some nuclear power plants—may leave consumer electronics companies scrambling.
Toshiba is a key supplier of NAND flash memory to Apple Inc. for use in iPhones and iPad tablets. The market for NAND flash chips has seen strong momentum this year as many global technology firms launch tablets to compete with Apple's popular iPad.

I don't understand why such a big deal is being made over this, if he had said nothing to support this college activity the other side would have made an issue about it.
I am glad he choose Kansas.
