Q: I dread many things about dining out in the coming year  from closings of beloved restaurants to ever-weirder ramen mutations. But the scariest of all may be the expansion of the online reservation app Tock  which makes you pay in advance for your meal at the time of booking — mostly at super-luxury eateries  but increasingly at lower-priced places  too.
The great Eleven Madison Park is the only place in Manhattan that currently uses three-year-old Tock for all seatings (though it’s also one of the very few restaurants worth such hassle). In Williamsburg  tiny Aska also uses the app exclusively. Now  Tock — which is used by just 300 US restaurants  compared to 43 000 for OpenTable and 1 000 for Resy — is trying to lure in lesser joints such as Té with Tock Intro.
Backed by millions of dollars in venture-capital funding  Tock promises great things to owners. Its platform can help them better manage reservations and reduce no-shows. Customers supposedly benefit from avoiding the hassles of reserving by phone.
But I hate having to buy a ticket for a meal — even for a world-class place such as Eleven Madison Park or Chicago’s Alinea  which is co-owned by Nick Kokonas  who also happens to be the founder of Tock.
Certain places that use OpenTable or Resy require a $50-a-head credit-card deposit. I’m not crazy about that  but at least we’re not giving them an interest-free loan of nearly $1 200  as a table for four would be at Eleven Madison Park reserved months from now on Tock.
Tock is striving to make inroads here by handling New Year’s Eve bookings at places that would otherwise use OpenTable or Resy. “New Year’s Eve has notoriously high demand and no-show rates  so we’re seeing a large number of restaurants using Tock Intro to combat the no-show issue ” says a company rep.
Among them: The Lambs Club and Lupa Osteria Romana — where you can only book the $275-per-head “Roman feast” starting at 9:45 p.m. on Dec. 31 using  Tock .
 Tock ’s strategy is to persuade users of the limited service to switch to the site full-time.  Tock ’s rep says  “Many restaurants start with  Tock  by offering a single prepaid experience  which is what you’re seeing with Lupa’s NYE dinner. After they see the full platform … they often transition all reservations over to  Tock .”

Q: This week  one of IRIBâs popular nightly talk shows was dedicated to the protests. The Channel Two show featured Ahmad Amirabadi Farahani  a conservative MP  and  Reza Seraj   introduced as an âexpert on strategic questions and a university professor.â
 Seraj  is well-known to many Iranian activists  although not exactly in those terms. Many of the thousands who have gone through the notorious interrogations blindfolded in Tehranâs Evin Prison remember his voice as an âexpert interrogator.â He is known for meting out psychological torture rather than physical torture by flaunting his supposed knowledge of the intricate webs of espionage with which any given activist is allegedly involved.
Born in the southwestern city of Ahvaz in 1966   Seraj  has cut  his  teeth in different wings of the IRGC  especially its autonomous volunteer paramilitary  the Basij. One story alleges that in 1988  the then-21-year-old Seraj galvanized a group of angry Basijis to stop a speech by Ali Khameneiâwho was president at the timeâto soldiers on the frontlines of the war with Iraq. Back then  President Khamenei was engaged in a power struggle with Prime Minister Mir-Hossein Mousavi  who was regarded as being more revolutionary and closer to the founder of the Islamic Republic  Ayatollah Khomeini.
As it turned out  two decades later  in 2009   Seraj  played a lead role in defending Khamenei  by then the supreme leader  harassing and torturing supporters of Mousavi  who was by that time the leader of the Green Movement that threatened Khamenei.
â 'The Americans  the Israelis and the Saudis had a strategic operational plan that was to be put in action next year '  Seraj  said  'but some factors led them into hastening  it .' â
 Seraj  headed the student organization of Basij from 2008 to 2010 and was lauded by the pro-IRGC Fars News Agency as a transformative Basiji figure. In the years since  he has become known for working with outlets like Fars and the state broadcaster to defend the regime and spin tales of foreign espionage.
His real identity didnât remain hidden for long. Ali Afshari  the student activist who was driven to exile after bouts of prison and torture in Iran  recalled  Seraj  very well in an interview he gave to the New Haven-based Iran Human Rights Documentation Center.
âWhen I gave up  they had taken my blindfold [off] and I could see my interrogator â Afshari said. âHe introduced himself as Alavi but I later found out that his name was Seraj. He sometimes writes for Fars now and is the head of student Basij. I complained to the judge and asked for a different interrogator.  Seraj  used to tell me that it was  he  who told the judge what to do  not the other way around.â
Adding more to spice up the story  Amirabadi claimed that part of the U.S. plan was to bring the forces of ISIS to Iranian territory  but this had been thwarted by the Quds Force (a part of the IRGC which is not supposed to operate on Iranian territory) and the Unknown Soldiers of the Twelfth Imam (the name used for the forces of Iranâs ministry of intelligence.)  Seraj  quickly agreed with this claim.
According to  Seraj   now that the Americansâ âPlan Aâ had been defeated  they had resorted to âPlan B â which had been started by U.S. Ambassador Nikki Haleyâs calling on the United Nations Security Council to meet about Iran.
âTheir plan is to lead Iran to miscalculation and to change its behavior according to what U.S. and the European countries want â  Seraj  said. âThey had designed a game of dominoes. The Americans were to threaten us with leaving the JCPOA [nuclear agreement] and ramping up the sanctions while the Europeans were to play the good cop.â
Confirming "the Conspiracy" and Worries for Whatâs  Next
Seraj  doesnât officially speak for the IRGC so someone unfamiliar with  his  significance might dismiss  his  elaborate theory as the thoughts of one man. But Iranian Chief Prosecutor Mohammad Jafar Montazeri has given a version of events that coincides very closely with Serajâs.
Montazeri then gave numerous details to back up the story put forth by  Seraj  and Amirabadiâand added some new claims. The cities of Herat in Afghanistan and Erbil in Iraqi Kurdistan had been picked as centers of operation  he said  and ISIS forces were to come to Iran from there. He also claimed that Michael DâAndreaâwho was revealed in U.S. media reports back in June as the newly appointed head of the CIAâs Iran Mission Centerâhad organized the protests  a claim previously made by some pro-government Turkish newspapers (these reports were so inaccurate they had mistakenly published photographs of U.S. actors instead of DâAndrea.)
The Green Movement of 2009 was followed by Stalinesque show trials during which the accused confessed to involvement in elaborate espionage plans.  Seraj  is known to have played a role in concocting those fantasy plans. So  now  many worry that a similar fate awaits more than 1 500 people who have been arrested over the last few days.

Q: Many people have gone in search of a treasure allegedly hidden by New Mexico author and antiques dealer  Forrest Fenn   but for some  the chase after an elusive prize has come at a dangerous price.
 Fenn   87  claims  he  hid a treasure â estimated by some to be worth $2 million -- somewhere in the Rocky Mountains in 2010. The only way to find it   he  says  is by reading a cryptic poem containing nine clues from  his  self-published 2011 memoir  "The Thrill of the Chase." Part of the poem reads  "Begin it where warm waters halt / and take it in the canyon down / not far  but too far to walk / put in below the home of Brown."
A former military pilot turned wealthy antiques dealer   Fenn  told ABC News the main reason for creating this massive treasure hunt was to give people hope.
"In 1988  I was diagnosed with what everybody thought was terminal cancer  " Fenn  said. "But besides that  we were going into a recession  and lots of people losing their job  despair was written all over the headlines  and I just wanted to give some people hope."
 Fenn  claims  he  hid a bronze chest filled with gold coins and rare artifacts.
Because of the fluctuating price of gold   Fenn  said  he  isnât sure of the exact value  "I don't even want to think in those terms. Writers about this treasure hunt have appraised it between $1 million and $5 million."
 Fenn  told ABC News  he  estimates that nearly 350 000 people have gone out searching. The treasure could be hidden anywhere in tens of thousands of square miles of territory out West  from New Mexico to Montana. Aside from the poem   Fenn  has given few clues as to the treasureâs whereabouts  but he says the treasure isnât anywhere dangerous.
Some skeptics think it's all a hoax  but  Fenn  is quick to defend its authenticity.
"The treasure is real "  he  said. "The treasure is hidden where I put it."
 Fenn  said thousands of online forums  videos and documentaries have fueled speculation  with people obsessively pouring over  Fenn 's prose-prompted clues to the point where  he  said  he  has received the occasional death threat.
" This one guy  called me...  he  said  'Tell me where the treasure is right now. I'm going to kill you.'"
So far  no one has been able to find it  including Washington state resident Dal Nietzel  who has made more than 65 search trip since  he  started looking in 2011.
Neitzel runs  Thrill of the Chase  a popular blog documenting  his  own quests and the quests of others. It also serves as a fan page for other  Fenn  afficiandos.
Cynthia Meacham  also among those looking for  Fenn 's treasure  said she first found out about the treasure in 2013 and has made more than 100 trips near her New Mexico home.
The quest for  Fenn âs hidden treasure comes with multiple dangers  including bears and rough terrain. Several people have gone missing or died trying to find it.
In 2016  authorities found the remains of Randy Bilyeu  whose family said he too went missing while searching for  Fenn 's treasure. Bilyeuâs body was found north of the Cochiti Lake along the Rio Grande River.
