So sorry to see that Papa Murphy's has gone. We have lots of happy memories of watching them make our pizza before taking it home to cook.

It just won't be the same: the old employes won't be there, the old ambience won't be there.
New digs and new menu should be interesting, though

They have retained some of the old staff. Ate there last week and had a very good omelet.

The More Things Change….Friday, August 19th, 2005
Many of my posts in the past have mentioned the "DUI Exception to the Constitution" and addressed the increasing tendency of courts and legislatures to ignore the Bill of Rights in DUI cases and to restrict a defendant in defending himself before a jury. My recent posts about the presumptions of guilt are examples.
Although we haven't gotten there yet, perhaps we can learn from history — particularly from the famous trial of William Penn, as recounted in Earl Warren's fine book A Republic, If You Can Keep It:
Penn was a leader of the Quakers in London. The sect was not recognized by the government and was forbidden to meet in any building for the purpose of worship. In 1670 William Penn held a worship service in a quiet street which was attended by a peaceful group of fellow Quakers. Penn and another Quaker, William Mead, were arrested on a charge of disturbing the King's peace and summoned to stand trial. As the two men entered the courtroom, a bailiff ordered them to place their hats, which they had removed, back on their heads. When they complied, they were called forward and held in contempt of court for being in the courtroom with their hats on.
That was only the beginning. Penn demanded to know under which law they were charged. The court refused to supply that information and instead referred vaguely to the common law. When Penn protested that he was entitled to a specific indictment, he was removed from the presence of the judge and jury and confined in an enclosed corner of the room known as the bale-dock. From there, he could neither confront the witnesses who accused him of preaching to the Quakers nor ask them questions about their charges against him.
Several witnesses testified that Penn had preached to a gathering which included Mead, but one showed some hesitancy as to whether Mead had been present. The judge turned to Mead and questioned him directly. In essence, he was asking Mead if he were guilty. Mead invoked the common-law privilege against self-incrimination which provoked hostile comment from the judge. The court then sent Mead to join Penn in the bale-dock out of the sight of the jury and witnesses. After the testimony the court instructed the jury to find the defendants guilty as charged. Penn tried to protest, but was silenced and again sent out of the courtroom.
The jury, for its part, proved sympathetic to the two defendants, and refused the judge's command to find the defendants guilty. The judge was furious and sent them away to reconsider.* When they returned with the same verdict, the court criticized the jury's leader, one Bushnell, and demanded "a verdict that the court will accept, and you shall be locked up without meat, drink, fire, and tobacco….We will have a verdict by the help of God or you will starve for it."
[* Note: Actually the jury found them guilty of "speaking on Gracechurch Street" and nothing else. Starling was infuriated because the act about which the jury found the accuseds guilty was not a crime.]
Three more times the jury went out and returned with the same verdict. Finally, they refused to go out any more. The judge fined each of them forty marks and ordered them imprisoned until the fine was paid. Penn and Mead went to prison anyway for obeying the bailiff's order that they put on their hats. Later a writ of habeas corpus won freedom for the jurors while Penn and Mead left jail to come to America.
As the old saying goes, "The more things change, the more they stay the same".

A plan to put a gas station at a busy west Toledo intersection
is fueling some controversy.
A request for a Special Use Permit is before
Toledo City Council, to add fuel sales to the Stop and Go carry-out operation
at the corner of Byrne Road and Dorr Street. The Plan Commission is recommending approval
based on more than two dozen conditions being met. The proposal would result in
a $1 million improvement to the property to add three fuel pumps at that
District 1 Councilman Tyrone Riley is opposing the SUP request. He
says neighbors in the area are worried it will attract more traffic and put safety at risk.
"Residents are concerned this will increase traffic. It's one of the
most dangerous in the state of Ohio. The second concern they have is crime," said Riley.
Riley will need eight others on City Council to join in his opposition. Nine votes are
needed to overturn a recommendation by the Plan Commission. The earliest a
Council vote could happen is Oct. 29.

(WRCB) - Good Thursday. Let the nice weather begin!
We had some good rainfall yesterday. Most folks saw about .50" to 1" of rain. Some a little more. Some a little less. The rainfall surplus for the year is 17.73" so we are doing okay, even though on the whole it has been a relatively dry month.
All of this sets the stage for great weather this weekend.
Today, mostly cloudy skies will continue, but the chance of rain is less than 20%. With highs in the low 80s, it should be a nice day even with the clouds.
We will clear out tonight, and cool down a little. The lows will drop into the upper 50s.
Friday and Saturday, look for lots of sunshine and highs in the low 80s.
Sunday will be nice, but an approaching front will bring some clouds to the area Sunday night. The front will wash out before it can bring us much in the way of rain, but I will put in a 20% chance of an isolated shower or two holding together for Monday.

CamelBak Kids BPA Free Plastic Water Bottle Green Dino 12oz./(.4L)
Kid-sized, fun and easy to clean, this bottle is ready for any adventure.
Not for children under 3 years
Numbering Describes the Above Picture:
1: JUST THE RIGHT BITE: Combining the patented CamelBak Big Bite™ Valve with a stem tube and shutoff valve, this detachable one-piece component is simple for kids to use and simple for parents to clean.
2: MADE FOR FUN: Available in tough, clear BPA -Free Tritan™ material or rugged stainless steel, in all sorts of colors and designs, the widemouth .4L (12-oz) bottle fits easily in a lunchbox and is built for kid-sized adventures.
3: NEVER SPILL: Easy for small fingers to operate, this clever cap flips open at the touch of a button. Shielded vent valve prevents unexpected messes.
4: SAFE AND EASY: Simplified stem and straw are child-safe yet easy to remove for cleaning. All parts are dishwasher safe.
Frequently Asked Questions:
Is the new CamelBak™ Kids' Bottle BPA-Free?
Yes. The new CamelBak™ Kids' Bottle and Kids' Stainless Bottle are BPA-free.
What are the bottle and cap made from?
All CamelBak™ bottles are constructed with materials carefully selected for their safety, durability, and ease of use. All materials are BPA-free, phthalate-free and safe for use in a hydration bottle.
The CamelBak™ Kids' Bottle is made from a copolyester polymer called Tritan™, made by the Eastman Company. Tritan is 100% BPA-free and phthalate-free, with durability, clarity and stain-resistance to withstand whatever kids dish out.
The Kids' Bottle Stainless is made from stainless steel, which is naturally stain-resistant, corrosion-resistant and taste-free.
The Kids' Bottle cap is an assembly of plastic materials made primarily from food-grade polypropylene selected for exceptional durability and safety. The Bite Valve is constructed with medical grade silicone for long life and taste-free performance; the straw is made of polyethylene, the same material used in milk bottles.
What is BPA?
Bisphenol-A is an ingredient used to make polycarbonate. All CamelBak™ bottles, including the new Kids' line, are BPA-free, durable, portable, dishwasher-safe and have no residual taste—all of the features and qualities you've come to expect from reusable CamelBak™ water bottles.
What are phthalates (pronounced Thal-ates)?
Phthalates are a component added to some plastics to make them soft and pliable. CamelBak™ bottles have always been phthalate-free.
Is Tritan™ and stainless safe? What type of safety testing has been done on Tritan™ and stainless?
CamelBak™, in conjunction with rigorous 3rd party testing, has not found evidence of any harmful chemicals leaching into food/beverage surfaces from Tritan™ or stainless material. Recent testing showed that Tritan™ is safe and meets all FDA and EPA guidelines for material that comes in repeated contact with food.
Why stainless steel and not aluminum?
When CamelBak™ designs a product, we look for the best materials to ensure taste-free hydration. We chose stainless steel rather than aluminum because it is stronger, harder and more scratch-resistant, making a more durable long-lasting bottle for all your adventures. Unlike aluminum, which requires an inner coating or lining to protect the metal, stainless steel is coating-free.
Is the CamelBak™ Kids' Bottle tested for child safety? How do I know it is safe?
When designing kids' products, safety is paramount. CamelBak™ Kids' Bottles undergo rigorous third party testing for BPA, lead and other substances. In addition, CamelBak conducts independent testing to ensure product safety for kids'-specific hazards including choking and breaking.
Congress and the U.S. Consumer Products Safety Commission (CPSC) recently strengthened safety standards in response to public concerns over product safety. CamelBak™ actively supports these improvements and ensures all products comply fully with the new rules and reporting requirements.
Since CamelBak introduced a new bottle for kids, does it mean that the original CamelBak Better Bottle™ isn't safe?
The original CamelBak™ Better Bottle™ still meets the most stringent child safety requirements. However, because of concerns about potential choking hazards of the removable Bite Valve on the original Better Bottle™, CamelBak has always recommended that parents limit use of the Better Bottle™ to kids 5 and older.
The new CamelBak™ Kids' Bottles offer designs and features made just for kids. All Kids' Bottles are durable, portable, dishwasher-safe and have no residual taste—all of the features and qualities parents rely on and expect from reusable CamelBak™ water bottles.
How is the Kids' Bottle cap different from the Better Bottle™ cap?
The Kids' Bottle and Better Bottle™ both feature the easy-to-use, spill-proof Big Bite™ Valve technology, a convenient straw-feed format, and flip-close-to-shutoff stem configuration. The Kids' Bottle cap, however, features a Kids'-specific Big Bite™ Valve and stem design made from a single piece of medical grade silicone. This one-piece construction prevents a child from pulling the Bite Valve off accidentally, but makes it easy for a parent to remove and place in the dishwasher for cleaning. In addition, the cap is easy for Kids' to use and includes a fun push-button release for the Bite Valve stem.
What's the clear thing (or pink or green or blue) on top of the cap for? Do I remove it or cut it to drink?
The CamelBak™ Big Bite™ Valve is a patented feature that provides easy drinking and spill-proof safety. Do NOT remove or cut this piece to drink. Simply bite it slightly and sip as you would out of a straw.
Can I put juice, milk or sports drinks in the CamelBak™ Kids' Bottle?
Yes. Juice, milk or sports drinks are all fine to use in the CamelBak™ Kids' Bottle. We recommend a thorough cleaning after each use.
Can I use carbonated beverages?
We do not recommend the use of carbonated beverages in the CamelBak™ Kids' Bottle. Because of the spill-proof sealed construction of the bottle, carbonated beverages can cause pressure build-up that while not dangerous, can result in an experience like opening a shaken-up can of soda. To use with carbonated beverages, we recommend that you remove the straw and drink using the "tip and sip" method like an ordinary sippy cup.
Can I put hot liquids in it?
We do not recommend using hot beverages in the CamelBak™ Kids' Bottles. The experience will be similar to drinking hot liquid through a straw, with similar risk of burns. In addition, stainless steel models do not insulate the outside of the bottle from the heated contents inside.
Is the bottle microwave-safe?
We do not recommend heating the bottle in a microwave because it can lead to uneven heating of the contents. Stainless steel models, like any metal product, should never be placed in a microwave oven.
Can I freeze the Bottle?
We don't recommend freezing CamelBak™ Bottles. Freezing, and subsequent thawing, can compromise the bottle seams on stainless steel models. If you do freeze a CamelBak™ Bottle, we recommend keeping the Bottle only partially full so that the water can expand as it freezes to ice. Keep the Bottle upright with the Big Bite™ Valve in a neutral position (i.e. not flipped up or down). If any water remains frozen in the tube, we recommend waiting until it thaws before trying to drink using the straw configuration.
What happens if I take the straw off?
Removal of the straw allows a "tip and sip" mode of drinking like a sippy cup.
Can I use the Kids' Bottle in high-altitude/ low-pressure environments? (i.e. airplanes, mountain altitudes, etc)
Yes, but with extra care. Always keep the bottle right side up and the bite valve in the closed position. Remove the straw for additional protection. Expect a bit of "spurt" during the first sip.
How do I clean the CamelBak™ Kids' Bottle?
All CamelBak™ Kids' Bottles (and cap assembly) are dishwasher-safe and easy to clean. For best results, always use the top rack of the dishwasher and avoid high-heat settings like "sanitary clean" or "heat boost" which may distort plastic components.
To clean the cap, we recommend removing the straw and Bite Valve from the cap to better clean the inside passages of the cap and place the cap components on the top rack of your dishwasher. If you prefer not to disassemble the Big Bite™ Valve, simply remove the cap assembly, making sure the Bite Valve is in the open position, and place the cap on the top rack of your dishwasher.
Do I need to clean the bottle before first use?
We recommend that you wash the bottle and cap in warm soapy water prior to first use, and rinse thoroughly.
Can I remove the CamelBak™ Bite Valve for cleaning?
Yes. The new one-piece Big Bite™ Valve and straw can be removed for easy cleaning. Follow these simple instructions:
• Flip the stem to the open position by pulling on the stem tab or pushing the stem release button under the handle.
• Turn the cap over and pull out the straw.
• Grab the flat finger tab on the base of the Big Bite™ Valve under the cap.
• In one firm motion, pull the Big Bite™ Valve component out of the cap.
• Clean the bite valve and cap by hand or in the top rack of a dishwasher.
Can I use a bottle brush on the Big Bite™ Valve?
Yes. The Big Bite™ Valve is made from tough silicone material that can be cleaned with a bottle brush similar to those designed for baby bottle nipples. Make sure the brush doesn't have exposed metal edges that could cut the silicone. Then insert the brush into the open end at the base of the valve. We don't recommend forcing a brush of any kind through the Big Bite™ Valve slit (where you drink from) as this could damage the sealing surfaces of the Big Bite™ Valve.
How do I put the Big Bite™ Valve back in the cap?
Follow these instructions to re-insert the Big Bite™ Valve component:
• Flip the stem collar (the component the bite valve passed through originally) to the open position. You should be able to look through both the opening in the cap and the opening in the collar.
• Turn the cap over and orient the bite valve so the finger tab points towards the back of the cap (where the handle loop is). Insert the tip of the bite valve through the cap and the collar until the end of the Big Bite™ Valve peeks through the outer end of the collar.
• Turn the cap over and grab the end of the Big Bite™ Valve and pull through until it sits in the grooves incorporated into the collar. If you pull the Big Bite™ Valve too far out these grooves will be visible. Just press the valve back down until these grooves are seated.
• Turn the cap over and press on the base of the valve to make sure it is seated.
• Insert the straw (either end, it doesn't matter) into the hole in the valve base. Don't over-insert the straw, just until you feel resistance.

WEKA Insulation is proud to announce the new sheep wool panel manufacturing line strategically located in Italy to make products for the booming European home remodeling market.
The WEKA production facility is a joint venture with IDEP, which is just 50 miles North of Venice. Wool is available in highest quality from Tuscany and Sardegna, biolime is produced in the Dolomites.
About WEKA Insulation
The product lauded by BULDERSnews Magazine as "Best Products of the Year 2008″ came to the USA through "TasserTechnologies", and immediately caught the attention of peoples "green" and "wallet-conscious" sensibilities. WEKA Sheep Wool Panels are insulated panels made from sheep's wool and a natural alkaline binder developed by Walter Tasser of Pfalzen, Italy. The insulating material utilizes the properties of wool (wolle) as well as a natural stabilizer (kalk, hence WEKA), which accomplishes the following:
- Saves energy and heating/cooling costs
- Enhances fire resistance
- Improves in-door air quality by absorbing certain air contaminants
- Provides resistance to pests and fungi by its natural ability to draw in moisture
- Lowers impact on the environment due to no thermal treatment or chemical processing and is fully recyclable
- Provides LEED points for contractors: Thermal Comfort (2pt); Rapidly renewable material (1pt); Innovation and design process: light, recyclabe (5 pt); Optimize energy performance (2pt); Use of local materials
Because these panels can be mounted on existing walls or used in new builds, the need for insulation and dry walling is eliminated, reducing the overall budget of a project. Besides budgetary considerations the ability for a product to positively affect the environment and its resources is priority for most homeowners. In addition to the aforementioned "green" positives above, the use of wool in this product is providing a new source of income and stability for wool farmers and suppliers, and increasing the exchange of local and sustainable sources of insulation materials.

Video: The Last Sunday Supper At Rocco's

In this animated short from StoryCorps, Nicholas Petron remembers his grandfather, Rocco Galasso, who moved to New York City from Italy with the hopes of making a better life. For 18 years, Galasso served as owner and superintendent of an apartment building where much of his family resided — until the day they were given notice that their building faced demolition to make way for new apartments. As Petron remembers, that's when everything changed.

Long before Irene and Sandy ever knocked down a tree or pulled down a wire, the storm that was talked about - and, quite possibly, the most feared - was Hurricane Gloria.
Yes, there were the storms of 1962 and 1992 that nearly sunk Long Beach Island. But the storm that passed through the area on September 1985 was quite possibly more of a threat to Manchester and Lakehurst than it was to the shore.
That was largely because of the storm's path: Much of it went inland and to the north.
This Whiting resident captured the storm's progress, titling it, "Hurricane Gloria strikes the Pine Barrens of Whiting," saying it was filmed on Sept. 27, 1985.

I'm somewhat reluctant to review this beer, because after reading others reviews, I believe the bottle I had must have been bad. The date on the bottom says 19/11/11. I wouldn't expect a beer of this caliber to go bad after less than 3 years, but what I got was bad.
Appearance: Bottle, 750ml, poured into a chalice. No head at all, even with a slightly aggressive pour on the 2nd half of the bottle. Murky brown, it doesn't let any light through besides on the very bottom of the glass, and only slightly, a dark rusty orange. No head, no lacing, no bubbles, so i can't comment on the color of the head.
Smell: the smell is good. Upon opening the bottle and smelling my first thought was "I'm going to like this". It had the characteristics I like in a Belgian. Yeast, dried dark fruit, candi sugar, caramel, minimal alcohol smell.
Taste: The taste was good as well, when i could get past the very odd mouthfeel. Similar to the smell. Raisin, yeast, bready, roasted malts, brown sugar, some spice (cinnamon).
Moutfeel: terrible. I would associate the mouthfeel more with a juice than i would a beer. absolutely zero carbonation. very sticky although it is slightly watery. just weird. if the taste wasn't as good as it is, this would definitely be a pour-out.
Overall: I will buy this again, but will make sure the date is a little more recent. I'm not sure what happened, but something is wrong with this particular beer. I've never seen a belgian with no head, no lacing, and no carbonation. If this had no taste, and i was only going off mouthfeel, i would say juice, then wine, then flat soda, then flat beer.

Poured a brownish body with massive head and lace patches on top of classic Belgian aroma of yeast, some citric orange notes, some dark fruits like raisins/figs and touch of sugary sweetness. I like this beer and it's a good representation of the style with simple hints of dark fruits, a softness in the light to medium body thanks to yeast, actually a little sweeter than usual (minor chocolate notes?) and finishes crisp with a touch of hops. That being said, I would consider this a "beginner" beer for those who haven't had this style before b/c it's not complex and hence not a favorite of mine.

750ml bottle, corked. Poured into a Tripel Karmaliet tulip. Served at 52F.
A: Off-white/tan head, size depends on pour. Body is a brownish-ruby, some light passes through. The head diminishes in short order, with almost no lacing.
S: Smells very organic, like wet grass, with a distinct caramel malts undertone. The Belgian yeast is clearly present in the aroma. Some note of the alcohol.
T: Sweet maltiness up front, finishes with a roasted malt character. Dark fruit flavors are present, raisins and dried dates come out. Taste is very earthy in character.
M: Dry with a lot of carbonation, the body is light-medium is weight on the palate. The carbonation and body combine for a very balanced feel.
O: The aroma and flavor are outstanding for a budget Belgian beer. The appearance is slightly above average, but everything else about the beer raises its profile. It is not a standout, despite the rating, but if you're in a pinch for a good Belgian, you won't miss with this one.

330ml bottle, poured into Kasteel chalice. A: Very dark mahogany, opaque, large tanned rocky head, lots of lacing, top marks, can't be improved on. S: Usual fudge, molasses and brown sugar expected from a BSDA, but also had and malt and hop content associated with a good Franconian doppelbock. T: Fudge, dark chocolate, cranberry, finish long, malty with some bitterness all balanced out by a surprising hop content. M: Smooth, creamy texture, light body, minimal carbonation. O: Great look, lots of layers, easy on the palate, ticks a lot of boxes.

LOUISVILLE, KY (WAVE) - Inside the Louisville Urban League Headquarters on West Broadway, local and state leaders urged the public to apply for earned income tax credits Friday.
"This is not charity. This is your money. It belongs to you," said Kentucky Lieutenant Governor Jerry Abramson. "Twenty percent of eligible Kentucky workers are still not filling out the documentation."
The earned income tax credit is designed to help low to moderate income families keep more of what they have earned. Individuals making $50,000 or less annually may qualify.
To help boost applications Friday morning, agencies including the Urban League and Louisville Asset Building Coalition teamed with community organizations to staff the Volunteer Income Tax Assistance (VITA) program free of charge.
"The demand is great," said Portland Promise Center Outreach Coordinator Eurana Horton who runs VITA services at the neighborhood center.
According to Horton, so many people turned out for the priceless tax service she and her staff had to set a limit.
"We could have up to 70 people in one session and it's only three hours," said Horton. "I only have three volunteers today, so we had to cut it back to about 30 this morning."
The Portland Promise Center is just one of more than two dozen locations offering the free tax help.
"We now have 27 sites throughout the city," said Mayor Greg Fischer during the Urban League press conference. "They're located at churches, universities, city government buildings, nonprofit groups."
Having recently taken advantage of the VITA program, Louisville mother of five Elisha Jordan said it helped save her hundreds.
"Last year," began Jordan, "I paid almost $400 to have my taxes prepared."
Community leaders, however, said the savings do not have to stop there.
"If you've got a family of three or more and you're making $50,000 or so, you can get back $6,000," said Abramson.
Mayor Fischer said those savings can benefit not only families in need, but the community as well.
"We have returned $82 million into the community," said Fischer. "It's recirculated and obviously helped a lot of people in a lot of different ways."
350 volunteers will donate 20,000 hours of their time to carry out this year's VITA program at the following metro Louisville locations:

Shart Attack is a short, little flare below Hypertension. If you are into poorly protected, not quite vertical, flared tips cracks then you will probably like this one. Be forewarned... this crack is fun, but by no means is it worth the walk just to do it. If you need a good warm-up for Hypertension or you just got shut down and are trying to salvage your day then get on it. It is very similar to Flare Thee Well, but the jams are worse and the gear is thinner.
From the base of Hypertension, look in the drainage behind you. You could hit the climb with a rock. It is on a tombstone shaped rock that is obscured by trees. SA is obvious when in front of it. A few bouldery face moves lead to the flare.

Commission looking at ways to restore Vt brookThe Associated Press | February 16,2013BURLINGTON A planning commission has secured a $3,600 state grant to help restore a polluted brook between Burlington and South Burlington.
The Winooski-based Chittenden County Regional Planning Commission says the Centennial Brook is impaired because of pollution-laden storm runoff and erosion.
The commission plans to use the grant, as well as $91,000 from local holders of stormwater permits, to fund strategies to prevent or lessen the effects of runoff.

Dinner aids victims of Philippines typhoon Haiyan
8:00am Tuesday 21st January 2014 in News
A ladies' charity night has raised £18,090 for victims of the Philippine typhoon disaster.
The dinner and auction at the Hilton Hotel, Bradford, enjoyed a big turnout with guests giving generously, said organiser Razia Amini who represents aid charity Humanity First.
She said: "This money will go a long way in rebuilding the lives of some of the nine million people affected by the devastating typhoon Haiyan.
"It will contribute towards the building of infrastructure and the development of homes, schools and hospitals to some of the worst affected areas."
Humanity First has already set up thousands of emergency shelter kits and water filtration units as well as distributing food, warm clothing and blankets.

Italian coffee shop planned for Pitsea (From Basildon Recorder)

Italian coffee shop planned for Pitsea
Updated 4:40pm Monday 27th January 2014 in News By Chloe Chapman
A shop and restaurant is set to open in Pitsea town centre.
Plans have been submitted to Basildon Council to transform a shop, in High Road, which closed last month.
The independent business has been welcomed by residents and councillors who are fed up with the lack of bars, restaurants and cafes on offer in Pitsea.
Earlier this week the Echo revealed the nearby Bull Inn pub, on London Road, could soon be demolished to make way for 23 new homes.
The Railway pub, on the High Road, was also knocked down to make way for the new market, which opened earlier this month.
Retired Jan Watson, of Gifford Green, Pitsea, said: "We have got a lot of places to eat in Pitsea, but it's all fast food takeaways and greasy spoons so I would never actually go to them myself. I would much rather go to a nice coffee shop and restaurant like this. I like being able to just pop to Pitsea town centre for a nice cup of coffee and a pastry.
"I am just glad a building is being filled and I think anything is worth a try, especially if it's going to be something different for the area."
Pitsea is currently undergoing a £30million revamp, which includes a huge Morrisons supermarket and a new Aldi store.
David Abrahall, Tory councillor for Pitsea South East, believes the new business will further boost the town.
He said: "I'm looking forward to it because Pitsea needs something like this.
"For years I have been campaigning for more restaurants and bars in the area, because Pitsea is unlike any other towns because that's what's lacking.
"I have always appealed for businesses to come forward and now is a particularly good time because of the regeneration."
It is not yet known howmany staff will be employed or what times the coffee shop and restaurant would be open, but alcohol will not be served.
Mike Le-Surf, Labour's parliamentary candidate for South Basildon and East Thurrock, added: "Anything that could bring jobs for local people is always a good thing and hopefully it will be a benefit to Pitsea, especially as the whole area is undergoing a redevelopment.
Coffee shops are very popular and it's good to offer something different. People don't always want to go into pubs. I believe in choice."
Councillors are set to decide on the plans within months.

Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas has decided to place the issue of
Palestinian prisoners held in Israel at the top of his agenda during the planned
meeting with US President Barack Obama, a PA official in Ramallah said
The official's announcement came as families of Palestinian
prisoners stepped up their protests in the West Bank, staging demonstrations and
rallies calling on Abbas not to resume the peace talks unless Israel released
their sons.
The official said that Abbas would ask Obama to put pressure
on Israel to release scores of prisoners, especially those who were imprisoned
before the signing of the Oslo Accords, in order to pave the way for the
resumption of the peace talks.
"The issue of the prisoners will be the
No. 1 issue during the talks with President Obama," the official
"President Abbas will also demand the release of prisoners who have
been on hunger strike for the past few months."
The issue of settlements,
according to the PA official, will occupy second place on Abbas's
Abbas and the PA leadership have recently come under increased
pressure to act on the issue of Palestinian prisoners.
On Monday,
hundreds of Palestinians demonstrated in several West Bank cities, including
Ramallah, Jenin, Nablus and Bethlehem in solidarity with the
The demonstrators called on Abbas to refrain from returning to
the negotiating table unless Israel released Palestinian prisoners. Some of the
protests also criticized the PA leadership for failing to do enough to secure
the release of prisoners.

The continued popularity of the e-book is changing reading habits more than you might realize.
A poll conducted for USA Today found that 40 percent of adults own an e-reader or tablet. That's more than double the number less than two years ago.
And while the survey found that people with e-readers are reading more books, it also found they are not going to book stores as often.

CINCINNATI -- Playing in a game unlike any other they've had to prepare for, the Cowboys ralllied late to beat the Cincinatti Bengals 20-19.
Early on, the team fell into a familiar pattern at Paul Brown stadium, trailing the Cincinnati Bengals 10-3 after one quarter.
Kickoff arrived less than 24 hours after team members learned of the death of Cowboys practice squad player linebacker Jerry Brown and that teammate Josh Brent is facing intoxication manslaughter charges in connection with the accident that took Browns life. Brent was driving both men home early Saturday when their car flipped and burst into flames.
So, with a lot on their collective mind, the Cowboys took the field. They took the first possession inside the Bengals 20, but as we've seen so many times they had to settle for a field goal.
The Bengals responded with a quick-strike drive that took less than two minutes. In hurry up mode, former TCU quarterback Andy Dalton flipped a shovel pass to Andrew Hawkins behind the line and he quickly turned up past the right end and scored from 8 yards out to give the Bengals the early 7-3 lead.
Cincinnati extended their lead to 10-3 when Josh Brown booted a 25 yard kick with 1:39 left in the first quarter.
Cowboys greif-stricken cornerback Brandon Carr, after having two teammates die in as many weeks, comes up with the biggest play of the second quarter, allowing the Cowboys to remain in striking distance of the Bengals.
Bengals quarterback Andy Dalton was rolling right early in the second quarter and tried to hit A.J. Green, but Carr stepped in front and then returned the interception across the field 37 yards, setting up the Cowboys with a first down at the Bengals 27.
It appeared a Tony Romo to Miles Austin touchdown hookup tied the game at 10, but the call was reversed on replay. Officials ruled Austin had just one foot in bounds after tipping Romo's pass back to himself.
The Cowboys cashed in 2 plays later on 3rd an goal when Lawrence Vickers provided a devastating block that paved the way for DeMarco Murray to jump over the top and break the plane of the goal line for a 10-10 tie.
Josh Brown tacked on another field goal to put the Bengals up 13-10 before the half.
In the third quarter, the Bengals added a couple of field goals to extend their lead over the Cowboys to 19-10.
The Bengals' first possession of the second half was aided greatly by a pair of Cowboys defensive gaffes. Defensive coordinator Rob Ryan was called for an unsportsmanlike conduct penalty when he came onto the field to yell at officials and Bengals Offensive Tackle Andre Smith. Later in the quarter, the defense had too many men on the field. Josh Brown booted a 25 yard field goal and would later add a 52 yard field goal later in the quarter to open the 9 point lead.
The Cowboys still trailed by nine on their second possesssion in the fourth quarter. Tony Romo engineered a thrilling 68-yard drive keyed by long passes to Kevin Ogletree, Miles Austin and ultimately a touchdown grab by Dez Bryant to cut the lead to 2.
The Bengals began their own drive and had a 3rd and 4 with 4:40 to play when Anthony Spencer stormed past Bengals Right Tackle Andre Smith and sacked Andy Dalton for a ten-yard loss, forcing Cincinatti to punt.
The Cowboys would get the ball at their own 28. Between some vey impressing running from DeMarco Murray (7 runs, 22 yards and 3 first downs) and quality plays by Romo and his receivers (4/6, 30 yards) they made their way to the Cincinatti 22 yard-line, giving Dan Bailey a shot at a last-second 40-yard field goal to win the game. Bailey split the uprights right down the middle, and the Cowboys came away with a 20-19 win as a smiling Jason Hatcher held up the jersey of Jerry Brown, tragically killed in the car accident caused by Josh Brent early Sunday Morning.
Cowboys Coach Jason Garrett put some perspective -- and some emotion -- on a tumultuous 30-ish hours for the Cowboys.
"I told our team that this is uncharted territory. A tragedy occured to our football team in the last couple days....it's been really emotional for everybody, and as the head coach of the team.... I have to offer some perspective. I talked a lot about the value of a teammate, and I think that word is really special. Jerry's one of our teammates."
A noticably subdued Tony Romo also spoke about the tragedy.
"It's just been a roller-coaster of emotions.... Loss is hard in life in general. Especially people you see every day, that you're close with.... you go through a lot together. It stil is a very difficult thing that this football team is dealing with."
With the win, the Cowboys moved to 7-6 and into legitimate contention for a playoff spot. But for the time being, they're not thinking about that. Their minds are on something more personal.

Scott Specialty Gases passes EPA accuracy audit of calibration gases
April 23, 2004
The EPA recently completed an audit of source-level, tri-blend, EPA Protocol gases that were purchased from 14 vendors of specialty gases. Cylinders contained blends of SO2, NO and CO2 in a N2 balance. Two independent laboratories performed the gas analyses using Procedure G1 and found that approximately 26 percent of the gases failed to comply with 40 CFR Part 75 accuracy specifications. Mixtures produced by Scott passed each of three components tested at three different concentration levels. The audit was conducted in accordance with Section 2.1.10 of "EPA Traceability Protocol for Assay and Certification of Gaseous Calibration Standards," September 1997, stating that the EPA will periodically assess the accuracy of calibration gases and publish the results. Results can be found at www.epa.gov/airmarkets.

The Pistontorque 2nd Year Meet Up – Turning Heads Wherever We Went That Day!
A few years ago i remember seeing the ever so famous super car meet which was held at the nawam mawatha car park… and i thought wow thats just brilliant. The selection of car that were present that day was insane! Since then i remember hearing a few friends of mine mentioning "back in that day… there was this super car meet where the best of Sri Lanka's performance cars met".
From then on the question that i kept asking my self was why hasnt it been happening… I never got the answer to that question until we celebrated our 1 year anniversary of pistontorque last year. Thats when i saw the true potential of our community! Everyone enjoyed last year and that was what made me come up with this meet up, which will from now on been an annual meet up!
Our 2nd Year meet up took place on the 3rd of February @3pm and below is what went down.
J's Racing Tuned FD2-R – Muzahir's Weekend Weapon
As we are celebrating our second year meetup today, I thought it will be fitting to release this feature at our meet.
The car above you see belongs to a good friend of ours, Muzahir. I remember him a few years ago when he used to own a Civic ES RS, fondly remember the part when He and a few mates of his came to pick up a set of Wheels from a friend of mine, and they all ended up carrying 2 wheels in the boot and 2 wheels on the laps of 3 of his mates in rear seat (Tight Fit) They complained of body aches the next day :)
Anyway, Muzahir has always been a Civic Nut, so from a RS to Type R is definitely a big feat.
The 1/4 Mile Life – Laying Rubber on An Air Strip
We last witnessed a legal drag race exactly 12months ago, within a few months after it was organized everyone were soon thirsting up for another one! Although attempts were made to hold another drag battle early and mid this year failed, the green light came from the officials to hold it at the Katukurunda Air Strip to end this year.
Rodbot's Caged EK9 – Bringing a Race Car out to play on the Street
We all have heard the statement "we will always remember our first crush". If i was to take that statement and put it into the life of a petrol head, it would then obviously mean a car. By now you probably know that EK9's and Me have a sort of history.
If your wondering whats so special about this EK9 to me other than its Normal Aspirated Numbers or its power to weight ratio or its driving dynamics, then let me just tell you : When i turned 18 this car right here was the 1st performance car i drove thanks to my friend who bought it back then. It was the 1st time i felt Vtec kick in at 6000rpm. This was the car that taught me the meaning of simple and functional factory modifications . It also prevented my mind from going rice boy crazy when i took a peek at the world of aftermarket tuning. This car right here is my master! Each time i see it i appreciate Honda for making its 1st fwd car to carry the Type R badge.
Video – Testing @ Pannala Circuit
Sorry for the lack of posts lately guys… being preparing business assignments as of late lol. Anyway a few weeks back I was invited to head over to pannala circuit to shoot a few pics for a few of my mates getting their cars tested. I convinced my mate Sam who had never been to and had always wanted to go to pannala to go along with me…. And for the rest of the 1hour we were there.. this are the results.
Thiwanka's DC5 rolls into the pits.
Rumesh Rajakulendran's Fighter EK9 – On The Streets of Colombo
Ever wondered what our Memories & Dreams have in common? Well to you & me there will always be a car/cars that would always bridge the gap. Whether you have seen a car and some day dream to own it, or driven it and some day hope to drive it again… what ever the case is, your love for that car will always be within you as you grow older.
Well for me it was kind of a different story….
It all started when a good friend got his hands on an EK9 and thats when i got the opportunity to drive it. I must say that experience has further helped me in a way to pay attention to how the car behaves on the throttle inputs. After a year or so my friend told me he sold it, as a result that experience became a memory to me. But the words EK9 always stuck on me, i remember there had been times i had wished to drive it all over again on many occasions.
When i started getting to know more people, i noticed that there were a few who did own Honda EK4's &9's. Then it came to the point where i started pursuing photography…
Speed Championship 2011 – Round 3 part 1
I am hereby pleased to give you the "Cream" of the event at the recent Speed Championship 2011 – Round 3 races.

Update 3 p.m.
Patch was fortunate enough to catch the moose this afternoon and we've added a few photos.
Original story
This moose was spotted along the Farmington River in Collinsville Thursday morning and photographed from the Collinsville Canoe and Kayak parking lot by manager Melissa Post.
"It was so cool," she said. "You go to all these other places — like Maine and Vermont — and you never see them and there's one right there in your back yard."
Store personnel said they've also received reports of sightings along the river in the past day or two.

Xcel wants to alter energy plans for Boulder
Last Updated: 15:54 January 29, 2014
As the programs stand now, Xcel argues that non-Boulder customers are being forced to subsidize the city's creation of a municipal electric utility.
"This is nothing against Boulder," said Jerome Davis, regional vice president for Xcel. "This is nothing against municipalization. ... This isn't about Xcel being retaliatory. It's really about protecting non-Boulder citizens."
Xcel's reasoning behind the application to the PUC is that the various rebates and incentives paid to customers for doing things like adding solar panels to their homes or purchasing energy-efficient appliances are funded by all Xcel ratepayers through the Renewable Energy Standard Adjustment and the Demand Side Management Cost Adjustment on their bills.
Boulder customers, Xcel asserted in a press release, "have historically participated in these programs at higher rates than others throughout Colorado," meaning Boulder customers reap more benefits from the programs than they pay for. The problem, Xcel said in its application to the PUC, is that if the city of Boulder moves forward with creating a municipal electric utility, the city utility would receive the benefits of Xcel's rebate and incentive programs.
Boulder earlier this month filed a notice of intent to acquire Xcel's assets necessary to form a city utility, setting the stage for a potential condemnation trial if a deal can't be reached through good-faith negotiations.
"These investments pay for load reductions, renewable energy supply and emission reductions that that will benefit the city, not (Xcel), upon any transfer of the service territory," Xcel's attorneys wrote in the PUC filing. "(Xcel) will seek compensation for these 'damages' to our prior investments in the condemnation proceeding. The issue that we bring to the commission's attention now is how to avoid creating further damages or loss of benefits by continuing these programs in Boulder under their current terms."
Xcel spokeswoman Michelle Aguayo affirmed that Xcel's customers in Boulder who already have solar panels installed, for instance, would not be affected by the company's proposed modifications. Going forward, however, Xcel is requesting a quartet of modifications that would affect any new Boulder participants in the voluntary programs.
One is that the utility would be authorized to include a termination provision in all new Solar Rewards contracts with Boulder residents that would allow the company to terminate its obligations to purchase energy and renewable energy credits from those customers if the city created its own utility. The utility believes such a right might already be implicit in its agreements, but is seeking clarity on the matter from the PUC.
The utility is also looking to modify its Customer-Owned Small Solar Rewards program to pay out benefits to customers over a period of 20 years instead of 10, using more of a "pay for performance" model that other Solar Rewards programs are based on.
Xcel seeks permission to limit new demand-side management investment in Boulder "so that the level of costs that we incur to fund new Boulder DSM participation in each year does not exceed the DSM electric revenue received from all of our Boulder customers in that year."Demand-side management involves reducing electricity use through activities or programs that promote electric energy efficiency or conservation, or more efficient management of electric energy loads.
Finally, Xcel would defer offering its community solar gardens program to Boulder customers unless the city of Boulder at some point decided not to proceed with municipalization.
Davis said it's not Xcel's desire to limit its incentive programs in Boulder. Company officials say they've reached out to the city of Boulder repeatedly to come to some sort of agreement that would make the company's non-Boulder customers whole in the event that the city created its own utility. The Tuesday filing noted that Xcel would be willing to withdraw the application for modifications if such an agreement could be reached.
"(Xcel) has once again made an offer to the Boulder City Attorney to continue all voluntary programs in Boulder without change if the city would commit to compensate (Xcel) for the benefits that a city utility will receive from these programs," Xcel's PUC filing stated. "To date, Boulder has not agreed to reimburse (Xcel) for any of these program expenditures."
Boulder spokeswoman Sarah Huntley said the city's attorneys were notified of Xcel's filing on Tuesday afternoon and still needed time to assess its impacts.
She said city officials want to make the sort of agreement Xcel is seeking. But she said the city has also been repeatedly denied when asking Xcel for information about the number of existing contracts with customers, provisions of those contracts and the financial implications of such an agreement.
"Until we get a full accounting of those contracts, which Xcel Energy has refused to give us, it is very difficult for the city to be specific about how we'll treat each contract," Huntley said. "Having said that, city council and staff are unified in their commitment to helping solar customers remain whole and not be harmed by their willingness to be early adopters of this important technology."
This is not the first time Xcel has asked the PUC for permission to modify its programs with relation to Boulder customers due to the possibility of municipalization. Xcel filed a similar request in 2012, but the PUC then determined that it was premature to decide the issue because Boulder was simply in an exploratory mode as it related to municipalization.
Boulder's notice of intent to acquire, Xcel says, changes the game.
"Given the city's recent actions taking this formal step toward taking over our business in Boulder, it is now appropriate to readdress this issue," Davis said.

New automated bulk bag discharger is equipped with an activated surge bin and flexible screw conveyor allows continuous loss-of-weight discharging directly from bulk bags. Cubic volume of the activated surge bin exceeds that of one full bulk bag, providing ample time for bag changes during which system software switches to volumetric mode for uninterrupted operation. The bag-to-surge bin interface consists of a Spout-Lock™ clamp ring positioned atop a pneumatically actuated Tele-Tube™ telescoping tube, allowing dust-tight connections and unrestricted flow between the bag spout and activated surge bin, as well as automatic tensioning of the bag as it empties to promote flow and evacuation.

One Plus One Carnival Club survival date looms (From Yeovil Express)

One Plus One Carnival Club survival date looms
1:00pm Thursday 10th April 2014 in News By Daniel Milligan
A CARNIVAL club in Ilminster may have to fold unless it can find a new base by the end of the month.
One Plus One CC, which has more than 20 members, had to leave its current base on the Dillington Estate by last week.
Chairman Maurice Hooper said the club was struggling to find a replacement venue to build its cart for this year.
He said: "We need to find somewhere by the end of the month – people have lost heart and everyone is pretty down.
"It's a shame we had to leave as the club has had an excellent relationship with Dillington."
It has not been an easy couple of years for the club – it had to withdraw its entry from last year's carnival circuit as its tractor engine failed.
It has just raised enough funds to buy another engine but this latest setback has left the club's future in jeopardy.
Vice-chairman Wayne Davey said: "It is not looking too good – the trouble is everyone is keen to build something but you can't, we have to hang back until we can sort somewhere out to go."
The club had been at the estate six years and needs a venue with about 100ft x 50ft of space.
One Plus One CC is an adult club but also has youngsters of 14 or 15 who assist with odd jobs on the cart.
Anyone who can help should call Mr Davey on 07736-644899 or Mr Hooper on 01460-54626 or 07741-100509.
n THE search is still on for this year's Chard Carnival Princess and Miss Chard. Carnival Princess entrants must be aged six to 11 and Miss Chard entrants 12 and over, with no upper age limit.
Entrants must raise a minimum of £250 and prizes for each of the winners include a prom dress, hair styling, beauty treatments, photo shoot and jewellery.
Phone Shirley Grant on 01460-66614 for more information.

Jasper Public Works Director Joe Matthews said a section of Whitehouse Road near the Love's Truck Stop is having issues with sections of the roadway deteriorating.
"From Industrial Drive to past the Love's is where the majority of the problems are at — it's about 1,500 feet," Matthews said. "It's basically just falling apart in spots."
Matthews approached members of the Jasper City Council about the issue at a work session Monday morning. He said there is a one-year warranty on the roadwork, which was designed by DSM Designs and surfaced by Carcel and G Road Construction. The project was paid for by a grant from the Alabama Department of Economic and Community Affairs. Matthews said he was looking for direction from the council.
"We will be contacting them to get the problem taken care of," he said. "I don't think it will be a big issue for them, because we are still within the warranty period."

Info: Our guest is Richard Baker who retired last month after 34 years as Historian of the United States Senate. Mr. Baker began his tenure in 1975 when the office of Senate Historian was established. By Senate Resolution, he was recently named Historian Emeritus. He is also the curator for the exhibition gallery of the U.S. Capitol Visitor Center which opened late last year. In this interview, Mr. Baker tells stories from the history of the Senate and shows some rare photos of Senators.

The agent for Saints QB Drew Brees continues to negotiate with the team about a long-term contract extension for the Pro Bowl quarterback, Brees told the New Orleans Times-Picayune.
Brees is entering the final year of a six-year, $60 million deal he signed with the Saints as a free agent in 2006. Prominent agent Tom Condon represents Brees.
When asked if he was aware of the lucrative contract signed Monday by Eagles QB Michael Vick (reported as a six-year deal worth $100 million but in reality a five-year deal worth $80 million), Brees said, "I did see it. It looks like a nice contract. Obviously I don't know any of the details other than the six years and $100 million."
In late July the Colts signed Peyton Manning to a five-year contract worth $90 million, which is equivalent to the deal Tom Brady signed with the Patriots last September for an average of $18 million per season.

Kurt Angle will be a guest on "The Bubba the Love Sponge Show" two weeks from today on Wednesday, Oct. 17 at 5:30 p.m. ET on Sirius Satellite Radio. I know most of you couldn't care less about pro wrestling but Bubba, Brent, and Spice Boy are all big MMA fans so you know that it will be a topic that's brought up and I'm sure Angle will have some noteworthy responses.
Editor's Note: I incorrectly reported earlier that the interview would be taking place today.
SIRIUS needs a MMA show.
