What is James Halliday reviewing this year? Even if you bookmark his webpage, follow
his blog and connect with James in the social media, the Australian Wine Companion 2013 offers readers unique scholarship. The facts, like the weather, vary from year
to year and with new wineries popping up out of the woodwork Wine Companion is
your go-to information source on what's new from our vineyards.
James has built this brand on the foundation of fine Australian wine and while we may wonder what a man like him eats for breakfast, it's more a question of what he drinks for breakfast? Not that he drinks wine all day, every day by any means, rather when served a special wine by an amicable host alongside farm fresh back bacon, he is apt to accept and prone to finish (the meal and the wine).
Halliday is not committed to wine consumption, but he is steadfast in ensuring a good bottle never goes to waste once offered. His entire enterprise is built on decades as a wine judge and writing wine reviews with particular emphasis on Australian wine. James is now in his 70s and his expertise in European vintage allows him unparalleled comparative measure; however, he is mentoring Ben Edwards and you will discover reviews in Wine Companion initialled JH or BE accordingly.
When it comes to food matching, the voice of James Halliday rings strong on the wine side of things; while foodies run the risk of focusing on fine food with wine as an afterthought, James is quick to point out the reverse. His writing highlights the wines you want at dinner so that you can cook accordingly. For voracious travelling connoisseurs, the annual Australian Wine Companion tells the story of vintage, vineyards and barrel rooms. If you want breaking news on cellar doors being redesigned to offer high-quality foods to match their wines, it's all in here.
On an annual basis with utmost precision, The Wine Companion itself impresses upon amateur wine lovers and experts alike the enormity of drinking and collecting options out there. For those pulled in by graphics and gloss, last year the Wine Companion extended their reach with the bimonthly release of their well crafted magazine by the same name.
Christmas is right around the corner and there are fathers
to consider, amongst other impossible-to-shop-for types, and these gourmet rags
sit well in a gift bag while the book itself will surely keep everything in

Spanish drop objections, Slovakia closes 28th EU chapter
25 Oct 2002 Flash News
Slovakia yesterday came to a deal on the economic competition area of European Union rules after Spain dropped its objections to the Slovak government's continuing financial support of a Volkswagen factory in Bratislava.
VW, which has decided to shift its production of the Seat Ibiza model from Spain to Slovakia, will be allowed to keep most of the tax breaks promised by the Slovak government through 2008, although the extent of the aid will be limited to 30 per cent of the car maker's investments. VW has been one of Slovakia's most important foreign investors since settling in Bratislava in 1991.
Steel firm US Steel Košice, on the other hand, will be allowed to keep up to $500 million worth of the tax breaks it had been promised through the year 2009.
European rules forbid state aid to steel and auto sector firms, and Slovakia had faced stiff opposition to keeping its investment stimuli in these branches following its expected entry to the EU in 2004.
Other aid the Slovak government has offered to dozens of investors will have to be phased out within a year of entering the Union.

GreatSchools Rating
Teacher quality
Principal leadership
Parent involvement
One of the best school in the Prescott Area, we have a small school, with small class sizes. The teachers really care about the students and we have a great arts program and drama program. My kids are very happy here and would not want to send them any where else. The school goes from kindergarten through the 8th grade and the teacher's cater their teaching to each individual child.
Willow Creek Charter has been a fantastic experience for my daughter, now in 6th grade, and son, in kindergarten. My daughter has been there since kindergarten and formed fantastic relationships with both her peers and teachers. It is great that they keep the same teacher for 2 years, and class size is small so they individual attention! I would love to see them bring back Spanish for all the students. Can't wait for my youngest to start!
I attended Willow Creek Charter School between the years of 1999 and 2004. It was a small school where everyone gets to know each other very well and the teachers are completely invested in the students education and well-being. It also allows for the students to work at their own pace; I was able to advance rapidly ahead of my grade in mathematics while also staying with my peers socially (I didn t have to skip a grade). I have now graduated with a bachelors degree in engineering and am now pursuing a masters degree and as far as I am concerned this school was instrumental in setting me up for success.
My kids went to Willow Creek Charter for most of their elementary and middle-school years. Loved the multi-age classrooms, which helped to drive them to be better students. They had no problem transitioning into a larger high school and have all been very successful in high school and college. They always felt safe, because of the bully-free environment and loved the extra attention they received in the small school.
My daughter absolutely loves her new school and so do I. We recently moved here from another state and visited many schools. We chose Willow Creek Charter School because of the small class size, their teaching philosophy along with their fabulous teachers, and the overall environment. I feel my daughter is in a very safe and enriching school. She has made wonderful new friends and is really blossoming. She even wants to go on the weekends. We couldn't be more thrilled!!
GREAT SCHOOL, GREAT TEACHERS! If you want you're child to receive a great education in a small school with small class sizes then this is the school for you. Great art, music, spanish, p.e., reading, and math programs.
I visited the school and after meeting the teacher and principal decided not to enroll my son. The teacher had many small toys/figurines on the side of her desk (which the kids walk by everytime they enter and exit the classroom). The teacher seemed very irritated and upset that my son touched a plastic McDonald's toy. She could have put them on the other side of her desk so that it would not be so tempting for kids to touch. I am sure my son was not the first child to do so. The principal told my son (who has ADHD) that if he gets distracted in class he will be sent to her office so he can focus better (meanwhile missing his class instruction and work). The receptionist who I talked to prior to visiting the school told me there will be 2 certified teachers in the class. There was a teacher and and aid who was a parent of a student without a degree or experience teaching elementary grades (just Pre-K).
This school has no regard for the well being of its students and parent concerns are completely ignored. My child will no longer be going to this school for these reasons among others. I do not recommend this school. The staff is completely unprofessional.
I taught at this school for a number of years and was disappointed by the lack of strong leadership who could do what was right by students. The idea of discipline was threatening to call police. The idea of school reform was hiring barely out of high school students as "parapros" to teach arts programs and tutor struggling students. As a starting teacher in middle school I entered a classroom filled with beginner reading books. Compare test scores.
My child was struggling in public school and attended this school for a while. He has had to return to public school and no longer struggles but excels. If this school is so out of date, under trained and just doesn t have it together, what does this say about the public school system. I think the school is great.
I'm a parent at WIllow Creek Charter School and I feel so blessed to have my child there. Everyday, I am confident that he is surrounded by the wonderful teachers and staff that care deeply for my child's well being, emotional development and academic achievement. When I visit the campus I am greeted by friendly faces and a family-like atmosphere. Thank you all for the amazing work you do.
I taught here for a couple of years. I believe every staff member cares about children. Unfortunately, leadership is poor. The turnover rate for teachers and students is very high. Little Parent involvement. Astonishingly, no school-wide intervention or assessment plan is in place. So students wait to fail and then get tested for special education. As for curriculum goes, Saxon Math & Open Court is used halfhazardly. The materials are old and teachers don't get proper training on how to use them. Much of the instruction is done by teacher aides who have little to no training. Aides teach Art, P.E., Computers, Spanish, and Music. There are no after or before school activities. Discipline problems are prevelant. After working hard to better the lives of the students at this school it is disappointing at how little has changed.
A lot has changed since 2006, there is a lack of strong leadership and the arts programs are no longer what they were. A sad disappointment.
wonderful curriculum, the teachers care about the students and their abilities to learn, and the rules of the school are strict. No one has the right to interfer with anothers learning. The school does not put up with drugs, name calling, disapline problems, disrespect, etc. They are on the student immediately for any infractions. The State of Arizona should offer more funding for a school like this one that offers safety and a wonderful learning environment.' The staff is willing to work with all students to assure they receive the academic education they require, whether it be by assisting a student who is delayed or helping a student accelerate beyond his/her grade level. 'Wonderful school. It feels more like a family atmosphere. Because it is smaller, most of the teachers know every student.
Wonderful school. It feels more like a family atmosphere. Because it is smaller, most of the teachers know every student. Parents are encouraged (but not required)to volunteer inside and outside the classroom. The multi-level classrooms allow the students to work at their level or above. Computer classes are taught at every grade level. The fine arts program includes music, drama, drawing, painting, ceramics and more.
I am so thankful for Painted Pony. The staff is willing to work with all students to assure they receive the academic education they require, whether it be by assisting a student who is delayed or helping a student accelerate beyond his/her grade level. My child loves Painted Pony. At Painted Pony, everyone is a part of the family. If only all schools could be so close knit and caring.
Painted Pony has been a wonderful alternative to Public School. Public Schools have gotten out of control (lack of supervision by Principals, drugs, uncaring teachers, unsafe playgrounds, teasing, etc.). Painted Pony, although small, and in need of additional funding, has a wonderful curriculum, the teachers care about the students and their abilities to learn, and the rules of the school are strict. No one has the right to interfer with anothers learning. The school does not put up with drugs, name calling, disapline problems, disrespect, etc. They are on the student immediately for any infractions. The State of Arizona should offer more funding for a school like this one that offers safety and a wonderful learning environment.

I used the raw edge method of applique as presented in the book "Stitched Raw Edge Applique" by the above mentioned pattern designers. It is not a quick method but does go faster than hand applique. In reading the book, I was impressed that the authors have won prestigious awards on quilts they have made using this technique. I still prefer the look of hand applique but find the blocks are quite presentable having done it by machine.
The quilt top now becomes a UFO that needs to be quilted. I have several tops piled up awaiting quilting. Being retired gives me more leisure time but there still aren't enough hours in the day.
The quilt top was too big to pin to the sticky stuff on the wall where I arrange blocks, etc. for viewing. My husband held it up as best as he could for a picture. Then we spread it out on the floor for another picture.
I have another set of applique blocks ready for machine stitching. They are smaller than the Jubilee blocks so they won't be as difficult to keep neat and stacked on the machine cabinet waiting their turn to be worked on.
Last Saturday was a stitching day with hostess, Carol (Brown Quilts), Jeanne (No Home Computer) and Susan. We had a good time visiting, poking around in Carol's sewing room, stitching, and going out to lunch. Carol had baked brownies and cookies that were very, very good. Got to see Carol's two Annies up close and personal. They sure are cute. Oh, we can't call Jeanne "No Home Computer" anymore. She did buy herself one and an Electric Quilt program.
I am also stitching once a month on a Thursday with my friends, Rosy & Beverly. A new lady was invited this past month. Her name is Ann and she does very nice hand applique as do Rosy and Beverly. I forgot to take my camera so no pictures. Will try to remember to take it along this month.
Have a wonderful day and thanks for stopping by.

Oh Karen it's lovely! Just the right amount of Americana and the colors are gorgeous. Never done machine applique but it can save time over doing it all by hand. I love to keep my completed pieces all perfect and ironed too so I started hanging them with skirt hangers in the craft bedroom closet. I use a tiny tab of folded batting so the hanger doesn't bite into the fabric. It keeps them safe and really nice while they wait.

Study: Flu shot may help with heart problems
Flu season is fast approaching and researchers say there is an extra reason to make sure you get your flu shot.
New studies find the vaccine may help protect heart patients from heart attack, stroke and even dying from heart disease.
New research also highlights just how significant that benefit can be especially for people who've recently suffered a heart problem.
Loreen Naylor thought the chest pains she was experiencing were nothing serious.
"At first I thought it was muscle pain and wasn't too worried about it and then I realized this is not right," said Naylor.
She was diagnosed with heart disease. Naylor gets a yearly flu shot now.
The new research finds the vaccine may offer extra protection for her and other heart disease patients.
"I encourage anybody who's skeptical about getting the flu vaccine for any reason that there is potential other benefit here from a cardiac point of view," said Dr. Jacob Udell from the University of Toronto. Researchers from the University of Toronto reviewed studies that compared patients who received flu shots to those who did not.
The patients were on average, in their mid 60's.
"Overall there was about a 33 percent reduction in risk for heart attacks, strokes and other major cardiovascular events in those who received the flu shot compared to those who'd received a placebo or just the standard of care," said Udell.
Among patients who had suffered a recent heart attack there were even bigger benefits.
"It's very important to me so I can do all the things that I love to do," said Naylor.

Anonymous asks this question: Are all men into porn and just don't want us to know? Or are there some guys out there that really aren't into that stuff? What's the answer guys?
So I've been dating this man for awhile. He's told me that he loves me and that we're in together thru bad and good. The other night he told me that he never wanted to lose me. I've not heard from him since Tuesday and he won't answer any of my calls. Can someone please tell me what in the world is going on in a mans mind for this to happen?
Hey there ladies. The guys are starting to answer your questions. So visit Ask-a-guy.com to find out the answers. You asked for honesty and er, uh…..that's what you're gettin….whether you like the answer or not.
Hey did you notice that you have so much more to say to a co worker or perhaps a friend than you do to your significant other? I mean why is it that we can strike up interesting and funny conversations with men or women and then when we get home it's, Ho hum, drum, "Hi, how was your day dear…oh, good, that's nice dear….what's for dinner….I'm going to bed… What did you say? Huh?
Guys! What can we do to get you interested in some convo here? What do you like to talk about? Or is it that once the spark is gone, you're just not interested in what we have to say? Once you know everything about us (or so you think, gentlemen), then you just don't want to know? Tell us (me) praytell?
Ok, guys. I think this is a legitimate question. "How in the name of (!@?$*$–oops, sorry—-how unlady like of me–lol) can we get you guys to do what we ask of you, without coming off as nagging? Is there some secret sauce to this? Is there a magic word? —besides that! Cmon guys, let us hear it!
- – - – - Advertisement – - – - – -
We know you want a better quaff
Really? I have heard this and I want to know from you guys the truth. What do you really mean when you say this???? Huh???? Hmmmmm???
Hey guys, here's a question: Who's the one with the issues, you guys or us ladies? As a lady, I am partial, so I have no comment on the matter. But I am sure there's plenty of people who have something to say…..
So the cheating question brought up the respect issue. So fellas, do you really respect the woman you are with? I mean truly respect in that you could never ever even bring yourself to be with someone else? Is that possible? Cmon…really….
– - – Advertisement – - -
One very wise man said today at a family get together, "It's easy not to cheat". It was further stated that "Men cheat because they choose to and because they can get away with it." I want to hear more about this, fellas. Please give us some feedback here. Be as honest as possible. This will help relationships (or not—lol) everywhere….including in my house. So speak up….

Fragrance Fest With Heidi Klum's Surprise! and GUESS Girl | Giveaway
February 20, 2013 by admin - Jennifer
Filed under Reviews
Company: Heidi Klum & GUESS
Item Reviewed: Surprise & GUESS Girl Fragrances
Item Given Away: Winners Choice of Heidi Klum's Surprise! or GUESS Girl
Start Date: February 20
End Date: March 7
Add an element of surprise to your date night with Heidi Klum's new fragrance. Surprise! is a tantalizing fragrance that captures Heidi's fearless spirit, sophisticated glamour and irrepressible sense of fun. Surprise! by Heidi Klum is a sexy floral fragrance that opens with a joyful burst of juicy mandarin extracts and spicy pink pepper for a luminous and dynamic top note. At the heart, an ultra-feminine bouquet of rose petals and magnolia creates a refined radiance. Finally, the magnetic drydown of benzoin and milk of sandalwood delivers a warm, sensual and unforgettable trail.
GUESS Girl is the perfect sexy and irresistible fragrance for your ladies' Valentine's night out. Sensuous, captivating and fresh, GUESS Girl is a celebration of bold, beautiful women everywhere. This fragrance has top notes of Raspberry Nectar, Melon and Bergamot, combined with middle notes of Brazilian Paradise Orchid, Provence Acacia Flower and Lily. Finished with base notes of Australian Sandalwood and Madagascar Vanilla.
My Thoughts
You know me, I am a fragrance junkie and I love having the opportunity to add both Heidi Klum's Surprise! and GUESS Girl to my fragrance collection. I have a collection because I like to change up my scents never wearing the same one in a week. They all have a way of fitting my moods and both of these fit into the floral category. I lean more toward Heidi Klum's Surprise! because it goes on strong yet seems to settle in instantly and leaves a light scent, something I would wear on a date night. GUESS Girl also goes on strong but doesn't settle in as much, I would wear this scent if I were to be out all day because it lasts. Both of these fragrances are keepers, if I can manage to keep them in my cabinet as my daughter keeps taking them. For the younger crowd I will say that she likes GUESS Girl more than the other, which just shows how different we and the fragrances really are
I have been given the opportunity to host a giveaway and one lucky Dirty t Shirt reader can win their choice of Heidi Klum's Surprise! or GUESS Girl. Please see rules below to enter to win today!

Although this is probably a rare and fairly random issue, I thought I'd write a blog to address it because it was so darn hard to track down. While building a webapp for my company, once we turned SSL on we faced some common gotchas (and some not so common) that most SSL websites face. One such issue was trying to suppress the warning that Internet Explorer gives about accessing secure and insecure data from the same page. Typically this happens if you have a page secured by SSL (meaning the URL starts with https), and you are accessing resources with paths that include the protocol http: rather than https:. If you make your local resource paths relative rather than absolute, you won't have a problem (for the most part). Most issues arise from an image/css/javascript which is referenced as http://yourdomain.com/path/to/resource However, in my case I had no such references yet I was still getting this warning message. I went through all of my code, grepping for http: but found nothing (besides some comments). I then fired up wireshark and monitored all http traffic, and sure enough, there was absolutely NONE occuring when loading the site I was building. Thus, the message was obviously another IE bug (one of billions the software giant has its its infamous software). So I did what any other respectable developer does, and tried google. Eventually I came across a person claiming that the lightbox implementation they were using had a weird line of CSS which caused the issue. Since I was using Fancybox (a really cool jQuery lightbox implementation), I thought perhaps I have something similar going on. It turns out I had the exact same line of CSS which was causing the warning. Offending CSS:
a#fancy_left, a#fancy_right { position: absolute; bottom: 0px; height: 100%; width: 35%; cursor: pointer; z-index: 111; display: none; background-image: url(data:image/gif;base64,AAAA); outline: none; }
Particularly, this line:
background-image: url(data:image/gif;base64,AAAA);
It looks like this css creates an image with a base64 encoding of AAAA which turns out to be just a transparent image. If you remove this line of CSS you won't get the security warning anymore, however your Fancybox's navigation buttons won't work correctly. The correct fix is to replace the offending line of css with the following
background-image: url(/path/to/blank.gif);
Basically, just create a 1px x 1px blank.gif file (transparent, not white), and put it in an image folder on your website. Then put the correct path to that image in the css as described above, and tada, no more warning messages (assuming you don't have other problems). Fancybox should work exactly the same as before as well. == Update 2009-10-20 == Thanks to Tom below I found another issue that only happens with IE6. When the Iframe is created it causes the SSL warning message to occur in IE6 because the iframe has no src attribute. By changing the offending line of code to include a src="javascript:false;" will remove this error. Thus change this:
$("#fancy_inner").prepend('');
$("#fancy_inner").prepend('');
== Update 2009-11-1 == I've found that several other projects around the net have the same problem and I've patched those as well (using the  method). The most recent one being the jquery autocomplete plugin (rcarver fork)

We're still a little bit away from retailers "leaking" their Black Friday ads, so no one can say with certainty what bottom-dollar deals the stores will be using to attract shoppers away from their Thanksgiving dinners. One prediction for this year's holiday season kickoff claims that 60″ TVs are going to be the most tempting bait, but you might have a hard time actually snaring that super-low price. [More]
Looks Like 60″ TVs Might Be This Black Friday's Big Doorbuster
More Price-Matching, Better Staffing And Other Black Friday Predictions
It's October, and those falling leaves and brisk temperatures can only mean one thing — that no professional baseball is being played here in Philadelphia. It also means that the official start of the holiday shopping season is a mere eight weeks away. [More]
Dear Petco: If You Insist On Pushing Black Friday In July Promos, At Least Make It An Awesome Deal
If you're getting an email from Petco trumpeting a "Black Friday In July!" promo that's only serving to tick you off, you're not alone. Consumerist readers Matthew and Kelso both forwarded their sighs along with a Petco email that is very, very excited about a not-so-great deal that just serves to make people cranky. Because it's not Black Friday. It's just Friday, in July. [More]
Great, Spring Black Friday Is Now Officially A @#$@*$% Thing
Has it just been too long since you've felt the panic rising from your stomach and into your throat at the idea of competing for Black Friday specials? You're in luck! Walmart and Lowes are both pushing so-called spring "Black Friday" discounts in an attempt to stir up some business, or maybe just to make us feel like the walls are slowly closing in… [More]
Toll-Free Number On Walmart Black Friday TV Voucher Forwarded To Wisconsin Spa
There might have been thousands of people who received vouchers from Walmart during Thanksgiving weekend that entitled them to order a television online at a certain price. For many of them, the voucher didn't work, so they called the toll-free number on the voucher. For some reason that isn't clear to anyone yet, this number was forwarded to a spa in Wisconsin. [More]
Black Friday Eve Not The Optimal Time For An Emergency Trip To Walmart
Stuff always breaks at the worst possible time, doesn't it? That was Josh's experience over Thanksgiving weekend. The household he visited over the holiday weekend had a plumbing emergency on Thursday. With no plumbers available for obvious reasons, they dug up the lawn and attempted a DIY repair. It went well until they made a trip to the only hardware store in town that was open: Walmart. [More]
Walmart Sold 2.8 Million Towels This Weekend
Sure, we in the media like to focus on the people who punch each other over televisions at Walmart stores during the weekend after Thanksgiving. While the mega-retailer sold millions of TV sets this weekend, that wasn't their top seller. What item did they move the most of over the long weekend? Towels. [More]
Here Are Some Videos Of People Who Spent Thanksgiving Fighting Over Discounted Junk
Can we pour one out for the memory of Thanksgiving, the once-loved holiday that took a shot to the gut yesterday when hordes of bargain-hunters chose to forego time with family and loved ones in favor of overhyped discounts on clearance items, and then died forever when the first punch was thrown, presumably minutes after the doors opened. For those of us who didn't go shopping last night, here are some reminders why… [More]
Going shopping this long weekend? Working in the retail frenzy? We want to hear your tales of commerce, mayhem, bargains, chaos, fun, and greed. You know, Black Friday. Don't forget to put the Consumerist Tipster App for iOS or Android on your smartphone so you can beam your experiences right to Consumerist HQ. If you don't have a smartphone, we like regular old e-mail just as much.
Black Friday Shoppers Set Up Camp At Best Buys Nationwide
For some people, the weekend before Thanksgiving means house-cleaning and checking their grocery list for the big feast on Thursday. For others, it means setting up a tent in front of Best Buy and settling in for the rest of the week. For these people, at least, Best Buy opening at 6 P.M. on Thanksgiving Day is good news.
Mall Restaurants Open On Thanksgiving Because Someone's Got To Feed The Hungry Shoppers
There's nothing worse than a rumble in your stomach while you're trying to focus on the hard task of shopping Black Friday or Thanksgiving sales. Maybe you left that plate of turkey and stuffing to get cold and congealed on the table in favor of scoring the best deals. Since many mall stores will be open on earlier on Thanksgiving this year, so will plenty of food court restaurants. [More]
4 Reasons Why Today Should Have Been Black Friday (And Why That Could Have Saved Thanksgiving)
There is a lot of talk these days about the growing number stores opening on Thanksgiving day this year, effectively turning Black Friday into Black Thursday. There are employees threatening strikes and people starting petitions while stores are opening as early as 6 a.m. on the morning of Turkey Day. But maybe it all could have been avoided if they had just moved the big shopping day up a week. [More]
Walmart Employees & Supporters Planning Black Friday Protests At 1,500 Stores
Just like last year, Walmart associates and other supporters in communities across the country are planning on protesting at a number of stores on Black Friday, about 1,500 locations this time around. At the heart of those campaigns are supporters' concerns over 825,000 Walmart workers who are paid less than $25,000 a year, alleged illegal retaliation against workers and improved labor standards. [More]
Every year there are the inevitable stories about consumers setting up camp to wait for Black Friday sales, and this year is no different. But honestly? The group at this Best Buy in Ohio sounds like a blast, as most say they're there for the community aspect. "I don't even want to buy anything," one woman admitted. "I just wanted to hang out with everyone." Wanna call them crazy? That's fine, says another: "We are crazy." [via USA Today (video autoplays)]
Walmart Hasn't Paid $7,000 Fine For 2008 Black Friday Trampling Death
We mentioned the other day that it's been five years since the tragic Black Friday trampling death of a Walmart employee. In the years since, Walmart has spent millions of dollars trying to avoid the meager $7,000 fine from OSHA, and still has yet to pay it. [More]
NLRB May Prosecute Walmart For Alleged Retaliation Against Protesting Workers
For the last few years, a number of Walmart workers have pushed the nation's largest retailer for higher wages and the right to unionize. During this time, some employees have alleged that management has retaliated against workers who have protested the store or walked off the job temporarily to strike. Today, the General Counsel for the federal National Labor Relations Board issued a statement saying he has investigated these claims and may have to prosecute the company. [More]
5 Years After Deadly Walmart Black Friday Stampede, OSHA Reminds Stores To Keep Order
In the early morning hours of Nov. 28, 2008, a Walmart employee in Long Island was trampled to death by over-eager shoppers rushing to grab doorbuster deals. In the years since, many stores have taken measures to prevent this sort of tragedy from happening again, but it doesn't hurt to remind retailers what can be done to minimize any mob mania. [More]
Costco, BJ's Would Rather Have Their Employees Spend Thanksgiving At Home
This year, everyone from Kmart to Macy's to Staples will be celebrating the time-honored tradition of ruining Thanksgiving by throwing open their doors early to shoppers eager to flee the company of their families in favor of door-buster deals on junk the stores are desperate to get rid of. But some retailers simply refuse to get into the spirit of Black Thursday and won't open until — get this — the day after Thanksgiving. [More]

Read more: It's official, coldest winter in 130 years in Ireland - SEE PHOTOS
Read more: Hundreds of thousands died in the Irish cold snap of 1740
Having just recovered from the coldest December on record is seems that Ireland's taste of Arctic weather is far from over as Met Eireann predicts up to 10 cm (4inches) of snow and temperatures of -1C (30F).
Sleet and rain are expected for the coming days throughout Connacht, Ulster, west Munster and north Leinster. However, by Friday this will turn into a countrywide blanket of snow with "possible drifting". The wintery showers will continue until next week.
Thankfully a New Zealand forecaster, who reads the moon, Ken Ring, has predicted that Ireland will have a warm summer. Speaking to the Irish Independent he said "There will be a cold first half of January, then, after a very cold second week in March, a mild spring.
"There will be a slow start to a mild summer. However, the good news is there are three lovely fortnights to choose from in the months of May, July and September. July should be the warmest month. Mid-to-late summer and early autumn are likely to be the sunniest in 2011."
Ring's predictions are closely followed by Irish farmers and his forecast for 2010 was remarkably accurate. He now does annual long-range forecasts for New Zealand, Australia and Ireland.

To teach Level 3, you will need the Teacher's Manual and Student Packet. You should also already have either the Basic or Deluxe Spelling Interactive Kit, which is purchased at Level 1 and then used for all levels of the program.
If you are teaching more than one student, you will need to purchase an additional Level 3 Student Packet for each student.
In this level, students begin learning about homophones and keeping a list of all the homophones they come across in the lessons. The All About Homophones workbook pictured below is an optional component of the spelling program, and includes over 240 pages of engaging homophone activities, homophone games, spelling resources, and teaching tools to help reinforce the concept of homophones.
All About Spelling is a building block program in which each level builds upon the previous one, so most students should start with Level 1 of the program.

- Special Celebration for Momcandaces1Dined on 11/9/2014This is our Mothers' selection for her birthday brunch for several years and once again, we were not disappointed. We had an excellent server, Mayra, who made all of us feel special and even sang Happy Birthday along with us. The food was delicious and HOT when it came to the table, and we had asked for a special booth and it was there waiting for us when we arrived. No wonder Mom loves Bite!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- lovely experiencelucyDined on 11/4/2014We were guests at the hotel and enjoyed both dinner and breakfast at Bite. Both meals were very nicely prepared and the ingredients were fresh and tasty. My dairy-free requirements were met without any difficulties when I asked. The service was exceptionally good. The servers were efficient and friendly with just the right amount of checking in. We felt very well taken care of. The design and look of Bite is very pleasing as is the rest of the Hotel Murano - very nice colors and sort of a cozy and open feeling at the same time. I highly recommend Bite if you are in Tacoma.Special Features:
- Great Food and ServiceMelodyVIPDined on 11/2/2014Wonderful food and the service was amazing. There were many patrons with a sight disability that were eating at the restaurant in various groups and the service provided by the restaurant staff was wonderful. Although it was very busy and the staff providing extra assistance our table never felt neglected.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Excellent Find!TorianneDined on 10/15/2014While on business in the SeaTac area, we wanted to explore Tacoma and we're so glad to have found the Hotel Murano and BITE! The menu was Northwestern and delicious. I started my meal with a glass of recommended local wine - a great choice - and beet carpaccio. Yes, beet. And it was the best beet starter I've had to date (and I typically order it everytime I see it on the menu). The service was impeccable and the kitchen was able to easily accommodate the other person in our party that had both a gluten and dairy allergy.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Love the PaintingsnickdlcVIPDined on 9/23/2014First time here. Food was very good creative menu. Love their take on a Manhattan We will be back.Special Features:
- Doesn't match the awesome hotelTBeach3Dined on 9/13/2014The food was horrible. I got the Albacore tuna and it was still frozen in the middle. The other food was so salty or so bland that I almost couldn't finish it. The service was abysmal. I ate at the bar, and the TV was so far to the right that you could barely see it or hear it. Why even have one in there in the first place if you don't want to be watched?! Horrible food, terrible ambience, and poor service. It's not going to shut down because it's inside of the great hotel and it's probably what they're counting on to stay open.
- Great location for dinner partiesInTownVIPDined on 9/8/2014I had a business dinner event here and it was fantastic! Food, service, and ambiance was perfect. I will definitely go there again for dinner, drinks, and business dinners in the future.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

- fabulous food and Mt Ranier viewstlajDined on 8/23/2014Went here as a special occasion and it was a treat! Gracious, attentive service. Fun Cocktails--try the blackberry martini, fabulous food. Salads were excellent, Salmon was the best we had all week (and we ate a LOT of salmon) and my son's burger was really really good. And you really can see Mt Ranier.Special Features:
- The following 95 reviews are from the BITE Restaurant reviews archive.
- Fine dining with a fine viewUpperLeftCoastTravelerDined on 7/18/2014BITE has always provided us with an exceptional dining experience, and this visit was no exception. What really put it over the top was the location of our table and the stellar view it provided. There are no bad views here, but having Mt. Rainier framed in the center of a wall of glass was absolutely a perfect complement to the delicious food and the impeccable, affable service. This one is on our permanent YES list.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Hotel foodDaveVIPDined on 7/16/2014Service was very good but we felt the food was mediocre at best. Bland and uninspired. Would not recommend. We were disappointed. Sorry
- MediocrefoodiedesiDined on 6/14/2014The Bite has a nice ambiance, but the food was mediocre. The appetizers of hot wings and flatbread were delicious and I would definitely get those again. However, I ordered the Halibut and it was overcooked and quite dry. The asparagus tasted smoky like it was charred without oil and salt, it was not very appetizing. My husband had the seafood pasta and it was okay, the scallops were cooked perfectly but the pasta itself was uninspiring and not well seasoned. The waitress was very attentive and we always had full water glasses. Overall it was a place I would probably come back to for happy hour but not for dinner.
- Copper River salmon 2014 was great!30YearReunionCommitteeDined on 6/6/2014Soup, salad, dinner, desserts and drinks were wonderful!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

- Great Mother's Day breakfastPoolzerDined on 5/11/2014Found this on trip adviser and had great reviews, and am pleased to add another! We loved everything about it: the lighting, artwork, atmosphere, the waitstaff and of course the food. We were promptly seated next to a window that had a view of downtown Tacoma and they had a special Mother's Day menu consisting of a great variety of choices for all tastes. The waitstaff were a perfect combination of being there when we needed them and our glasses and cups never were dry, as well as leaving us alone during conversations and eating. Between the 5 of us, 3 had the eggs Benedict, one had the sirloin hash and I had the Rum Bananas French Toast. Servings all around were plentiful and all were cooked and tasted great. Will come again!Special Features:
- Off to a great start!UpperLeftCoastTravelerDined on 4/12/2014We visited BITE just a month or so after their opening. The experience belies that short history. It has all the signs of becoming a neighborhood and citywide fixture. Great location and ambience, experienced and helpful staff, and a kitchen that appears to be hitting its stride quickly. Very pleased, and we'll keep it in mind for future visits to Tacoma.Special Features:
- Not That GreatSAYWENNVIPDined on 4/12/2014The food (once we got it) was just fair. We went there while staying at the Murano Hotel. We were told by a waitress/hostess when we entered the restaurant that we couldn't sit in a certain booths that were empty. I don't know who she was saving them for...Service was slow and the food was just fair. The hotel is great, but they need to get this restaurant up to the level of the hotel. Too bad 'cause the hotel is really cool and fun.
- Great Service, Weird DecorScottVIPDined on 2/16/2014Amazing service and very good food. The chairs for the tables were not comfortable and the decor was quite odd including the bizzare deck of cards on the wall. I will be coming back.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Pleasantly surprised, worth a visit5ich009Dined on 2/16/2014My wife and I stopped in for a late Valentine's Day lunch. The restaurant is in the Murano Hotel in downtown Tacoma. She had the truffled macaroni and cheese with black truffles and white truffle oil. I had the Kobe burger with Gorgonzola cheese and garlic fries. Wow, we were pleasantly surprised at how tasty both meals were. Service was above average, both server we had struck up a conversation and took time getting to know us. Overall, it was a nice dining experience. We'll come back with friends. An added bonus is that the hotel has a number of nice art pieces located throughout the building, which are fun to scout out.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- nice surprise!OpenTable Diner Since 2011Dined on 2/15/2014we wanted to eat in downtown Tacoma but we couldn't get a reservation at our regular haunts, so we decided to try the Bite. Utes a great decision! Food was good, if was quiet, and the sever was excellent! Give it a try!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Tacoma Night OutOpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 2/15/2014We were disappointed with size of the selections on the menu. Nothing really said you have to try this on their menu. Probably picked the wrong night to try them. There was a cheer competition in town and at least one team and their parents choose the Bite. Restaurant was smaller than I thought and the kids were loud. Not that a bunch of little girls having a fun night wouldn't be noisy. The food was OK but not, tell your friends, special.
- Hooked with a bite!JasmineDined on 2/4/2014What a find! I can't believe I have not been to Bite which is walking distance from my residence. The Hotel itself is magnificent with glass work from the Museum of Glass. We had the scallops and shrimp fettuccini. The scallops were fresh, sweet and perfectly cooked. Delicious. The truffle fries are to die for! I will definitely be back!Special Features:
- Lousy serviceCHIlee1Dined on 1/10/2014There were 6 in our party and only 2 other small groups in the entire restaurant. Bascially the restuarant was empty so there was no excuse. The service was horrible. After we ordered it took over 1 hour to get our food. I ordered the soup to start with and she never brought it even though I reminded her twice. The server never checked back with us to see if we needed anything and the only thing she was quick with was the check. Will NOT return.
- Hidden Treasure!MrsDominoDined on 1/4/2014We were celebrating the engagement of our best friend before going to the Wedding Expo at the Tacoma Dome. We LOVED Bite! Our first time there and it was perfect for a little Girl's Morning with Mimosas and breakfast. We will be returning!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- This place is really nice!LuncheonTDined on 12/31/2013This place is really nice! The food was great, and had a great atmosphere for any occasion. Was a bit noisy at times..but I thoroughly enjoyed it!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Good timeMouse301Dined on 11/9/2013Had a good time with some girlfriends for a birthday. Met at the bar downstairs for a cocktail before heading up to the restaurant. Food was good, service was good. Would def recommend to friends for a quiet yet amazing night..Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great Brunch - Expensive ParkingMelodyVIPDined on 10/27/2013Had a spur of the moment brunch here and was really impressed. The menu selection was great and provided a lot of options. Both me and my guest extremely enjoyed our meal. We felt like the portions were good and the prices were very reasonable. The one complaint is having to pay for parking at the Hotel itself at $8.00 for a Sunday. Either reduced or validated parking for guests is reasonable especially for Tacoma. Also, having to park, then pay and then go back to your car to put the ticket is not ideal in pouring rain.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Dinner for 8Like2EatDined on 10/17/2013I took a group of 8 people to BITE for dinner while staying in Tacoma. Many of the group had eaten here previously and had high expectations. They were not disappointed, in fact we had the exact same table as we had previously. Everyone enjoyed their meal and I didn't see much (if anything) left on the plates as they were cleared. Also impressed that substitutions were readily handled by the kitchen staff. Only concern I would note is that when I originally tried to make this reservation (on-line) it was for 10 people, and was not reservation accepted. I changed the reservation to 8 and it was accepted. However, there was plenty of room available in the dining area so I'm not sure what a larger reservation would not have been accepted.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Fun for drinks and appetizersTwoguysVIPDined on 9/28/2013BITE is tucked away on the 4th floor of the Hotel Murano, a low space with lots of windows in the front. The hard plastic chairs at the tables were stylish but uncomfortable. Booths have cushions. Service was attentive, but the food and drinks were a long time coming. Creative and interesting cocktails! They match the artsy theme of the hotel. The shrimp appetizer was very good, as was a cheese and meat board. The main courses were good but unmemorable. Come here for drinks and appetizers.
- DisappointedJoeyDined on 9/26/2013Service was really terrific from the moment we arrived. Open concept does not work--way too much noise. Food was OK but I had expected better given the quality hotel.Special Features:
- gemvashondougDined on 8/22/2013Great welcome from the host who engaged my elderly folks right away. Prompt, professional table service came next, along with fresh bread- the only criteria my dad will judge a restaurant by. My mom and I had reuben sandwiches, dad had the NW salad. With gravitas, my mother (who is from NYC) said it was the best reuben she ever had. And it was good on marble rye without too much dressimg but generous with swiss and sauerkraut. My dads salad was brimming over with cold fesh crab and more over a bed of romaine that . After lunch we strolled the art filled Murano Hotel where the Bite is located. The hotel might be mistaken for a art museum if it weren't for the guest rooms above. Great experience, would recommend highly.Special Features:
- Food was beautifully preparedNancyVIPDined on 8/14/2013Food was beautifully prepared and delicious - loved the quiet atmosphere - beautiful display of glasswork - the service was beyond excellent! Will definitely visit again!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

Report of the Activities
15, 2003
Since the submission of last year's Annual Report to the Senate (on April 15, 2002), the administration consulted the Faculty Senate's Budget Planning Committee on the following items.
1. The salary policy for FY2003. The State had provided enough new money for approximately a 2% raise. The University allocated an additional 1.5% from tuition and other revenue to bring the average raise to 3.5%.
2. Requests to the Regents and legislature for FY2004. This was a very difficult process since the legislature funded the FY2003 salary increase with non-recurring funds. As a result, our first priority was to make the non-recurring allocation permanent. Second, we asked for resources to replenish the faculty, whose numbers have diminished by over 100 in the last three years, due to decreases in State appropriations.
3. The level of general fund support of intercollegiate athletics. This was an issue that members of the Committee wished to discuss because of concern over the nearly $2.5 mil from the general fund that is spent on athletics.
4. Federally mandated fringe rate increases, and health insurance costs. These items are linked. The FRIC provided the Committee with data indicating the decrease in level of support that the University provides the faculty and staff for health coverage. In consultation with the Senate Budget Planning Committee and FRIC, the administration arrived at a funding proposal for FY2004 that would ensure that the difference between what a single employee must pay for health coverage and what the University contributes to this coverage will not increase. The administration indicated a commitment to reduce the difference to zero over time.
5. Preparation of the FY2004 budget in response to allocations from the legislature. This is still in progress, and awaits final appropriations from the State. However, the Committee has considered a variety of scenarios and has been consulted, in particular, on how to use new tuition revenues to supplement state appropriations. The final FY2004 budget is not expected before the end of the month.
In addition to these items, the Committee was heavily involved in discussions over joining with the Staff Council Budget Committee to form a combined Faculty Senate/Staff Council Budget Committee. In response to the report of the Budget Planning Advisory Committee, Past President Coleman, with the help of Past Senate President Bhattacharjee, drew up a proposal for such a combined committee, which she asked the Faculty Senate and Staff Council to consider for their approval and adoption. The proposal was refined and eventually approved by the Senate in January 2003. (The Staff Council approved the proposal earlier.) The charge to the new Committee is fundamentally the same as that to the Senate Budget Planning Committee. There are differences in detail, however. In particular, the membership of the new Committee will be different. It is anticipated that there will be a one or two year transition from the current configuration to the approved new configuration.
Additional matters to be considered by the Committee during the remainder of the academic year and, possibly, during the summer include: Consulting with central administration on implementing other proposals from the report of the Budget Planning Advisory Committee. In particular, it will discuss the recommendation of an activity-based budget accounting system, wherein the costs and revenues of various activities are clearly expressed. It will also seek to rationalize its relationship to the President's Committee on Strategic Implementation (PCSI), particularly in the area of unit reviews, and it will explore ways to become more fully involved in budget planning. In this connection, it will seek greater participation in the preparation of the FY 2005 and 2006 budget requests to the Regents and State.
Respectfully submitted,
Paul S. Muhly, Chair

Here is a prime example of a good guy finding himself in trouble with the law after a wanted felon attempted to force entry in the Veterans home.http://www.inquisitr.com/681593/man-arrested-for-firing-warning-shot-at-burglar/
It's also an excellent reason for all of us older "and I hope" wiser Vet's and gun owners to take these young guys under our wings and help educate them on the differences between patrolling a fire base in Afghanistan and defending your home... once your back home.
Sure hope he's cleared and get's his rifle back but we'll have see what the courts in Medford say about it.

He is a better person than me as soon as the crook entered my house they would have taken him out in a body bag
This is total BS He was defending his property and life now he being treated like a criminal next time don't spare the crooks life
But...but....uncle Joe says we should put two shots in the air, and then two through the door!!!
This story was on AM radio this morning so I pulled it up when I got into the office.
A. I don't think the perp ever gained entry
B. Homeowner told the perp he'd give him "a warning shot"... then did.
C. Responding LEO said the perp was walking away when the "warning shot" was fired.
I don't like the fact that an Afghanistan Vet is facing charges for running off a wanted felon anymore than the next guy... but firing a warning shot is a well know NO NO to anyone who's studied armed protection and has any knowledge of the law.
Long story short... If you not "scared for you life" enough to shoot the perp in order to make him stop whatever it is he's doing... you not in "enough danger" to justify pulling the trigger.
Like it or not... that's the law... and there are many good arguments for it, the biggest one being that even trained Veterans "short of shooting into a clearing barrel"... have NO idea where that round could end up.
Medford is a small town and I certainly hope the authorities show some leniency... but the bigger point here is that it's incumbent upon us to recognize these younger fellow's when we see them at the range, befriend them, and steer conversation beyond shot group size too the larger discussion of "appropriate use of force".
Boom, Boom, boom; no warning, just darkness...
Unless you count the clicking of a safety.
I do not have a choice but to fire a warning shot. It is the law in Germany. First you give a verbal, then you give a warning shot, and finally you can shoot. I also have a right to shoot someone if they try to still my rifle while I am on the hunt. (think terrorism) But I have to follow the three steps. The problem is, I think I am dyslexic when follow steps. Of course if the guy also has a gun, then all bets are off.
You can get away with firing a warning shot here even with or strict firearms laws. Probably not a good idea unless a last resort before using it for real.

The Braves and Jets will both be traveling quite the distance for their regional match-ups tomorrow in hopes of pulling off the unlikely against West Lafayette and Sheridan, two powerhouses in their respective divisions.
The West Lafayette Red Devils have an impressive 11-1 record going into the contest and they also have the home-field advantage going their way, but the upstart Braves have something of a chip on their shoulders as they come into the game with the confidence and momentum.
A mini-valley of dirt and concrete was created on Wednesday across five-lane 13th St. between Adams and Patterson Sts. by workers who will reconstruct the crossing to make it smoother.
Repair work has been done several times in recent years, but proved unsuccessful. The accompanying photo, looking east, was taken at midafternoon Wednesday.
It is hoped that the work can be completed by Friday.
City police have made numerous arrests of semi drivers for being off the posted detour route.
A somewhat contentious and pointed discussion between members of the North Adams School Board and community activists Charlie and Jean Brune ended abruptly Tuesday night when president Tim Ehlerding called enrollment figures at North Adams "not legitimate stats."
The Brunes presented members with two sheets of statistics they say showed North Adams has lost just over 300 students in the past three years, a drop of 14 percent while the labor force during that same time has fallen only 4.07 percent.
An 11-member committee that met monthly for a year or so to discuss problems in the aging building that houses Adams Superior Court and the probation department now has a new task: educating the public about the importance of a city-county government building in downtown Decatur so a referendum will pass in the November, 2012, election.
Ray W. Prowant, 84, a lifelong resident of Dupont, Ohio, died 6 a.m. on Wednesday, November 9, 2011, at the Defiance-Area In-patient Hospice after a brief illness.
He was born on June 1, 1927, and raised in Continental, Ohio, the son of Homer and Addie (Anspach) Prowant.
FORT WAYNE— The new-look Squaws had a tall order to take on in their season opener on Tuesday night as they started the coach Andy Heim era with a tough 53-22 loss at the hands of the Concordia Lady Cadets.
The Squaws managed only five points in the first half (two in the first quarter), putting themselves in a big 28-5 hole at the half that was just too much to handle for the new Bellmont squad.
By the end of 2012, the number of appointed school boards will decrease from 15 to at least 13 following action this week by the Indiana Department of Education which approved a request from the North Adams Community Schools to have an elected school board.
The non-partisan election will initially have four seats on the North Adams up for a vote next November. Two of those four seats will be occupied by new members while the other two will be replacements of current board members whose terms expire next fall.
Building a new jail is not under consideration by Adams County officials in the immediate future, but a joint meeting on Tuesday of the county council and county commissioners offered a different idea to help pay off debt for a new jail: shift payments from property owners to lawbreakers.
James "Jim" L. Blocker, 80, of Bluffton went home to be with the Lord on Tuesday at 5:30 a.m. at Lutheran Hospital in Fort Wayne.
 Jim was born in Nottingham Township, Wells County, to Lester and Edith (Kleinknight) Blocker. He graduated from Rockcreek High School in the Class of 1949. He faithfully served his country during the Korean Conflict in the U.S. Army from 1952-1954.
Judith A. Ehlerding, 70, of Decatur, passed away on Tuesday, November 8, 2011, at her residence.
She was born in Celina, Ohio, on October 31, 1941, to Paul E. and Dorothy A. (Harlett) Froning.
On December 2, 1971, she married Frederick K. Ehlerding.
Judy was a member of St. Mary of the Assumption Catholic Church in Decatur and its Rosary Society.

If DOMA is unconstitutional that means the Constitution is gay. Of course, no real shocker. It was written by a bunch of dudes in wigs in the City of Brotherly Love, and it calls for a legislature that's bicameral. It's a bit curious. Plus, look at that aged parchment and fancy calligraphy. It looks like a gay wedding invitation.

In the middle of all these scandals, President Obama got some good news today. The IRS ruled that he can write off the first half of his second term as a total loss.
President Obama gave a big speech on climate change. He believes global warming is getting worse because he's sweating a lot more in his second term.

In New York, the new front-runner in the New York City mayor's race is Anthony Weiner. Some analysts say it's due to name recognition. Actually, I think a few people recognize more than just his name.

Mitt Romney's former campaign manager has launched a super PAC to stop Hillary Clinton from becoming president. It makes sense because if there's one thing Romney's campaign manager is good at, it's stopping someone from becoming president.
