Southwood Home is a Melbourne-based furniture and homewares store that focuses on local, natural, organic and fair trade products. They carry a lot of fabulous local brands like Ample, Armadillo, Bemboka, Bonnie & Neil, Skin & Threads, Tide and Uimi as well as international brands like Amy Sia, Imogen Heath and Hey Sign. I adore their modern, optimistic sensibility, punctuated with playful colors and simple forms.

After a nearly 2-year hiatus, I decided to hit up the Atlanta market earlier this month. It was a fabulous experience. Retail in Atlanta continues to evolve, elevate and inspire (along with new foodie options – delish!). And then there's the show – I forgot how impossibly HUGE that thing is! Floors after floor of decor throughout several buildings served up a feast of beautiful design. Todays post focuses on a few of the color stories emerging for autumn.

I've spent an inordinate portion of the last 20 years or so walking trade fairs. Let's just say it takes a lot to stop me in my tracks. But it happened last week in Atlanta when I turned the corner and collided with the Design Legacy booth. Suddenly I was confronted with a decidedly unique and unabashed point of view; a sort of Southern-Tricia-Guild-meets-MOMA type of thing with a dash of Vintage for good measure. Vibrant, optimistic and over the top. It boldly stood out in the crowded mart as a breath of unexpected creativity. (Design Legacy is a Texas-based wholesaler, selling to the trade only – so no shopping links this time, I'm afraid! But you can ask your local specialty decor retailer to consider stocking the items, and some pieces will be available on-line with various retailers this fall.)

I'm a fool for silkscreening, especially in modern – yet simple – decor products. Which is why I went completely gaga over Keephouse Studio, which was founded in 2012 in Halifax, Nova Scotia by designer Alissa Kloet. Her original surface designs are combined with functional materials to produce a line of textile and wood accessories that are made by hand in small batches. Lovely! (As always, click to shop!)

Many of us in these parts are heading up to the lake for a long, holiday weekend. Which gets me back on the subject of decorating cabins. For reasons foreign to me, plaids and duck prints have taken hold as staples over the years, and I'm frankly not sure that's necessary. Today I'll share a few fun alternatives to chic up the cabin…

And for the finale of this series, I attended Midwest Home's Luxury Home Tour last weekend. To this modernist, the spaces overall felt a bit more traditional than I'd remembered from years past. Yet I still found it to be an exhilarating experience that spurred plenty of new ideas floating around in my head. Although, my husband seems quite convinced we don't actually need an elevator in our house. Sigh…
Have a fabulous weekend, everyone!

The second house exploration adventure I attended was the Artisan Home Tour by Parade of Homes. This was its very first year, so I wasn't sure what to expect. Well, let's just say it didn't disappoint – plenty of amazing spaces and brilliant decor to inspire the decorator inside you! There's one particular house that I've been obsessing over for some days now. Not sure how 1.6M would ever find its way into the budget, but a girl can dream. I'd absolutely recommend attending this one next year if you get the chance.

'Tis the season for voyeuristic adventures through fancy houses! Yes, it's tour time in the Twin Cities, where builders and designers open the doors to multi-million dollar mansions to give us a peek inside. And while the properties are out of reach for this particular blogger, I found myself totally inspired by the experiences. This week I'll be sharing three different tours I attended over the past couple weeks.
First up is the Mpls. St. Paul Magazine & ASID's (American Society of Interior Designers) 17th Annual Showcase Home Tour; where a number of fabulous designers (25, to be exact) team up with the homeowners to overhaul their space. This year's home was a 4500 square foot, 1940's gem located in Golden Valley's Tyrol Hills neighborhood. Totally fun to see it all come together under one roof.

Turns out, Clerkenwell (a hep neighborhood in central London – you'll find the Zetter & Rookery hotels there) is home to more creative businesses and architects per square mile than anywhere else on the planet. To celebrate this unique design community, Clerkenwell Design Week was established as a 3-day "design festival", showcasing leading UK and international brands and companies presented in a series of showroom events, pop-up exhibitions and special installations that take place across the area.

If you're lucky enough to be in NYC later this week, you're in for a treat: Judy Ross is holding her sample sale June 5th through the 7th. It's the kind of event that actually made me check last-minute fares to the big apple, just in case I could justify the expense of a plane ticket through savings on pillows (Sadly, I couldn't. But only just…). Thought I'd share a few of her brightly colored, hand-embroidered chain stitch pillows that I've got my eyes on. 18″ pillows retail for $195 – although I have no idea what the gems will be going for this weekend!

Sign Up for the Barneys Warehouse Sale
The Barneys Warehouse Sale will be returning to the internet for the second year in a row. The famous sale, that starts in February, features discounts on coveted labels up to 75% off!
Last season Barney's secretly launched in the wee hours of the morning, probably to avoid crashing the site from too many bargain hunters trying to shop all at once. Barneys then sent out email notifications throughout the day.
This year it seems to be the same. The department store is soliciting email addresses and promising "to notify you as soon as the sale starts." But no date has been announced.
Click here to sign up to receive notification from Barney's about the sale. We'll keep you updated about the New York City warehouse sale as we find out.

star san
I Keep a spray bottle of star san for quick sanitizing. Will the solutiion in the bottle keep for a period of time or should a make up a new bottle when the time comes.
It should keep for at least a week. Over time it degrades. If you have a means of testing pH, discard it once it reaches a pH above 3.0.
If you use deionized water and clean everything really well before sanitizing, it should last a very long time.
star san
Thanks for the info.
Clorox makes a spray sanitizer that's supposedly pretty powerful but non-toxic. We keep a small bottle of it in the diaper bag for all the times our son threw his pacifier on the ground.
distilled would work in a pinch too.
my tap water is hard enough that star san starts off cloudy/hazy even though its still effective.
my next spray bottle (probably today actually) will be made with RO water so it keeps for a longer period.
also when it does go 'bad' you can add enough star san to get it back down to the correct 'effective pH' and its good again! so it really is economical.
I misspoke, I use distilled water. It is the metal ions that cause the star san to degrade. So RO, deionized or distilled should be good for this purpose.
I buy a gallon of distilled water from the store and add 6ml of star san to the jug. I have had some left for about a month that was still good.
And if you use de-ionized water for making up the solution, once its pH goes above 3.0, you can 'freshen' it by adding a bit more Star San concentrate until it goes back down below 3.0. As long as it is clear and below 3.0, it is still active.

Veltwerk23. July 2014
I love it when local people make awesome local things to share with the rest of us local folk. And that's my I'm happy to tell you about this company called Veltwerk that make such cool leather (vegetable-dyed leather sourced from local tanneries) and velt bags. They have just launched their new online store and everything on it is worth a lust over. So I thought I would share their products with you and if you feel like a bit of a 'spoil yourself' moment, head on over to veltwerk.co.za
n+a new york16. July 2014
This simple, but oh so beautiful jewellery is made by sisters Noriko and Akiko Sugawara under their label n+a new york. They're so delicate but imperfect at the same time, I really like them.
- n+a new york is a jewelry line founded by sisters Noriko and Akiko Sugawara, who originally come from Yokohama, Japan. Designing their collections and making all pieces in their studio in Tribeca, New York City, Noriko and Akiko create finely crafted, handmade jewelry. Their designs reflect the subtle beauty of the details of both city life and nature. Details that often go unnoticed in the busy rush of ordinary life—the textures of rocks and leaves, details of historic buildings in New York City, cracks in subway walls, the sparseness of branches in winter, and the richness of blossoms and leaves in summer—catch their eyes and inspire the motifs of beautiful jewelry pieces. Respect for the nature of their materials connects their designs to their inspirations. Noriko and Akiko's unique perspectives and Japanese sensibilities give birth to an original aesthetic in jewelry design.
Jarapa Jarapa clothing07. July 2014
These very crazy, but cool pieces are made by Barcelona based label Jarapa Jarapa. From what I can gather via their Facebook page and a very helpful Spanish to English online translator, I've learnt that each piece that this label makes is unique and never repeated, once made the pattern for that specific item is destroyed, so that the buyer is the only one that owns it. How cool is that?
I really like all the mad patterns they use to spruce up a shirt or a denim jacket, I mean who would say no to a bacon shirt? What about a dinosaur or a banana one, not me, that's for sure.

Kirsten Goss and Missibaba's new shop – Birdhaven15. May 2014
Yesterday I went past Kirsten Goss and Missibaba's new shop at 66 St Andrew Street in Birdhaven. I've been wanting to stop by to look at all their treasures and I wasn't disappointed, as per usual. Kirsten Goss has some very pretty jewellery on display and Missibaba has an array of bags you would literally sell your granny's silverware for. Even though some designs are ones I've seen before, there were a lot of very cool pieces that I haven't seen. Her new Artisanal beaded bags collection that she collaborated with Abigael Terenoi is very beautiful, and I love all her metallic shiny bags, but I think my most favourite piece in the whole shop was the banana print sling bag – so much fun! Want want want.
The shop is very nicely laid out and full of things that you'll definitely want to take home with you, so make a trip past and give them a high-5 for opening such a pretty shop, full of such pretty things. When you're in there, check out the gold bird feet hooks that they have holding up all the bags, they are too cool.
Depeapa – new collection06. May 2014
Depeapa has new collection out and I love everything about it. Each bag is like a piece of candyflossed material. Depeapa always has the nicest and cutest stuff on her online store, it's so worth a visit if you want to treat yourself with some prettiness.
The tote bags are great!

Knowledge Makes Itself Known
Bright sunlight shining into my mind, illuminating it for a
moment in time.
Clearing up doubts and worries, placing them in a jar upon
a shelf of forgotten memories.
Finding the sorrow hidden in a corner of my mind, crouching,
afraid to come out.
Reaching out, touching it carefully, recollection flows out
abundantly in the form of tears, salted with bitterness and
Opening up the floodgates of my heart, they come forth,
cleansing themselves in the light of knowledge, no longer
able to hide in the corner labyrinths of my deepest mind.
Tearing into this heart, rending it's delicately, thin
cover, the pain of a lifetime claws it's way through my
my mind and heart, leaving me stranded in misery.
Like the waves of an ocean, mercilessly trying to knock me
down, as I try to stand on my own, while being thrown to
and fro.
Bright sunlight shining into my mind, illuminating it for
a moment in time.
Sparing nothing, all things are under the scepter of light,
knowledge brings out everything good or bad to be seen and
dealt with on it's logical intellectual level.
Passing ever so lightly, tiptoeing across memories,
vibrating them like the strings of a harp, knowledge makes
itself known.

Once every decade, Santa Rosans focus on the people and neighborhoods who are under-represented in city government. One side endorses district elections as the only way to bring political equality to the city. The other side says everything is OK and district elections wouldn't work anyway.
They take a vote, district elections are rejected, and everybody goes home.
And another 10 years passes. This has happened twice before.
On Thursday night, I went to see if history would repeat itself.
There's a lot to like about the 2011-12 Charter Review Committee. These are conscientious, slightly wonky people trying to work through complex issues.
They remain divided, of course, in ways we have come to expect. In the popular shorthand, there is the business group and the environmental group. You know who they are even if they don't wear contrasting uniforms and publish a program. From time to time, a sharp exchange reminds us they are not best friends.
But they are more alike than they might want to admit. It has been noted before that the composition of this 21-member committee is symptomatic of the problem — Exhibit A in any conversation about city government's insularity. When City Council members made their appointments, the sign on the door might have read: Only friends and political insiders need apply.
Three-quarters of the committee members live in the prosperous neighborhoods of the city's northeast quadrant. The committee includes two former mayors, a former congressman, a former city manager, a former assistant to the city manager, several former members of boards and commissions, two school board members, two political consultants and two union officials.
But somehow council members weren't able to find anyone under 53 years old to serve on the committee, or even one Latino (in a city where Latinos represent at least 28 percent of the population).
This selection process managed to ignore a couple of decades of complaints about a political establishment that couldn't be bothered to reach out to new neighborhoods and to new residents.
When the committee conversation got around to district elections on Thursday night, the arguments were the ones we have heard before.
"I don't think our system is broken or dysfunctional," said lawyer and former Congressman Doug Bosco.
Bosco said "there's no evidence" that district elections would help elect minorities to the City Council, or that city expenditures favor the neighborhoods in which most council members live.
Campaign consultant Terry Price disagreed. "Everything is better on the east side of town than on the west side," he said, "All you have to do is drive around to see that."
"At some point in time, we have to go to district elections," he predicted.
Price said district elections would guarantee that more neighborhoods are represented on the council. He also said district elections would reduce the cost of running for office because a candidate wouldn't be obliged to reach every voter in the city.
Not so, said Bosco and another campaign consultant, Herb Williams. They argued moneyed interests will influence district elections just as they influence citywide elections. "The cost of these elections will rise overall," said Williams.
Finally, another committee member, Sonia Taylor, suggested the panel may not understand the circumstances of people who live in less privileged neighborhoods.
"I cannot be comfortable saying there is no problem and nothing has to change," said Taylor. "I don't know if district elections will make things better, but they will be different."
She added, "I think it's time to let the voters decide."
When the straw votes were counted, history did repeat itself. The committee once again rejected district elections, denying voters an opportunity to decide the issue. Keeping to what amounts to the party line in Santa Rosa, the vote was 10-6. Unless the committee changes its mind, the idea is likely dead for another 10 years.
But now what?
We know that Santa Rosa remains a city divided, east and west, between those who have more and those who have less, between those who have access to government and those who do not.
Successful cities make neighborhoods feel respected and represented. Unsuccessful cities keep kicking the can down the road.
You don't have to like district elections to understand that Santa Rosa needs to find a remedy before another 10 years pass.

This letter was recently released by the CA School Boards Assn. I have changed or eliminated parts that deal specifically with school districts. If SR gets sued, can we make the council pay for it out of their own pockets, since they don't want it?
The California Voting Rights Act (Elections Code 14025-14032) prohibits at-large elections, in which voters of the entire jurisdiction elect members of the governing board, when it can be shown that such elections dilute or abridge the rights of voters who are members of a protected class. Under the California Voting Rights Act (CVRA), voters who are members of a racial, color or language minority group may file an action against a local government alleging racially polarized voting. If the court determines that a violation has occurred, it will implement appropriate remedies, including the imposition of district-based or by-trustee area elections where members of the governing board are elected by voters residing within smaller voting districts where the board member resides.
It is recommended…[to] assess potential liability and ensure that minorities are not being disenfranchised in local elections. Here are some key
questions for districts to consider:
- Does the district currently conduct at-large or district-based elections for
governing board members?
- What are the current demographics of the community served by the district? What
minorities constitute the voting-age population?
- Does the racial and ethnic make-up of the governing board reflect that of the
- How can we utilize the recent census data to assess our district's risk factors?
- What is the history of minority candidates and elected members of the board? What do past voting trends show?
- Will converting to a district-based election system improve minority
representation on the board?
I wonder if there is enough evidence for some group to file a suit in SR?
Money Grubber, districts are useful for large-scale representation (such as state of federal levels) in which there are true and significant differences in the areas represented and in which geographical distance affects the situation considerably (our interests are not always the same as those of residents of LA or SF or Sacramento, for instance). However, a city of medium size such a Santa Rosa does not need such artificial divisions. City issues handled by the city council concern us all and therefore we should all be able to vote on each council member. Limiting voters to selecting only one of the council reduces our influence instead of increasing it. Harry Callahan and Reality Check have it right.
The best representation of the public is through DISTRICT elections.
That is why all states and federal decisions are made through DISTRICT voting.
You never want a group of people in one area making decisions for people living in other areas. District elections prevent that.
If you want the public sector unions to have even more power dictating what goes on at city hall, you definitely are in the yes column for district elections.
District elections would mean a more divided city not a united city. Think about how the little "special project" tax monies would be spent in that certain district with a powerful political boss in charge.
Since the public unions are the new political bosses, what benefits, money and goodies would be directed to those areas with the highest number of union employees and their families.
Forget budget reforms, pension and benefit reforms and big city deficits, more taxes and public spending as far as the eye can see.
What Hypocrisy!!!
First, if the people want district elections, fine.
But Lefties always talk about "equality" and "discrimination is bad" and that "skin color and ethnicity don't matter" so we need a color-blind society (of course, except for that small matter of affirmative action where skin color and ethnicity can be used to gain a preference, and then suddenly discrimination is good).
And here, it's proclaimed that elections should consider ethnicity so Latinos can be better represented because older white people from the East side could not possibly govern in everyone's interests.
So those same people who like to label posters here as "racist" because they disagree with illegal immigration, Obama or typical left-wing idiocy are now all for using race and ethnicity as a gauge for elections.
Now that's racist.
Sonoma County and Santa Rosa community is absolutely pathetic. It's dying a slow death. Thank goodness it makes a half way decent wine.
@Stars Yes, that was my point, I incorrectly reversed the numbers. Your comment proves my point even better though, because it's telling that so many are familiar with the East /West dichotomy that the mistake is jarring.
Thanks for clarifying
Lisa: just want to clarify:
when you said:
"Shame on Mayor Olivares for allowing and encouraging a Charter Review comprised of overwhelmingly White,business interests over the age of 55 and all from the west side to tell the people of Santa Rosa (who are increasingly, young, Latino and living on the East Side) that "there is no problem" and no need to even allow us to vote on district elections," i'm pretty sure you swapped the east/west…
so it should read:
Shame on Mayor Olivares for allowing and encouraging a Charter Review comprised of overwhelmingly White,business interests over the age of 55 and all from the EAST side to tell the people of Santa Rosa (who are increasingly, young, Latino and living on the WEST Side) that "there is no problem" and no need to even allow us to vote on district elections.
yes? i'm not trying to be a stickler or criticize, i just think that is and important part of the main point…
for the record, i'm for district elections. our city is no longer a unified "small town" (if it ever was), and people need to accept that. different neighborhoods have different characters, and it's time they all had a shot at being equally represented.
Answer: NO.
Our community will be less devided.
As time passes this year, as this extreme sabotage to our rights, our water, our economy, our agriculture and food supply, our health and our well being becomes more obvious.
People will start to wake up.
Like folks tend to do in an emergency…
they will unite.
The resolve for our very ongoing will provide a common-unity.
If they kept in check, who knows how long they could have gotten away with this tyranny, but nooo.
@ bear
You have your "facts" confused with reality. Multinationals didn't contribute to the winners, and they are winners, in the last Santa Rosa City council election.
The public unions endorse, campaign, fund and elect the local democrats who are in their political debt for their term or terms in office.
Stop reading that union propaganda you get from the local and open your eyes. G.E. doesn't care who sweeps 3rd Street. SEIU certainly cares who will continue to vote for their pensions and benefits.
That is why you and Golis are off the tracks.
Of course people like Doug Bosco and Herb Williams believe that the city council elections are fine just as they are. They embody the same demographic of the people who have been running this town for years. They were appointed by the City Council majority to do exactly that, represent the people who have always ruled Santa Rosa from their own interests. When the Charter Review Committee was first picked, the statistics on the lack of geographic, age and Latino representation on the Charter Review committee were pointed out by many(including the Press Democrat) and the Mayor and council majority were given a chance to rectify that appalling situation but chose not to. It's fairly obvious that this is a fix by the Mayor and council majority to keep those voters who have always been disenfranchised out of city politics. Shame on Mayor Olivares for allowing and encouraging a Charter Review comprised of overwhelmingly White,business interests over the age of 55 and all from the west side to tell the people of Santa Rosa (who are increasingly, young, Latino and living on the East Side) that "there is no problem" and no need to even allow us to vote on district elections.
If the City Council Majority and the Mayor are determined to keep voters from deciding if we want district elections, then we should remember this when Council member Sawyer and Olivares and the rest of their majority ask for our vote. We should alo remind ourselves that asking for the City Council to place district elections is only one way to get it on the ballot. There is nothing to stop citizens who are tired of being left out of our city's governing process from collecting signatures and putting t on the ballot our selves.
Oh and one slight correction, there are not two union reps on the committee. Tony Alvernez is the head of an employee "association" which is not a member of any state or national affiliated union such as the AFL-CIO or Change to Win.
Corporations must balance Union concessions with profitability or they go out of business. PERIOD!
Government has no such concern.
And what does "evading taxes" have to do with ANYTHING?
Government doesn't PAY TAXES!
Talk about a "delusional rant"…
@ Harry – "Speaking of political equity", If you recall recent history, 'The Press Democrat' endorsed ALL of the council candidates that won last election. Who has more influence or "control" over elections?
Who gives more money, Unions(working people) who have to disclose ALL donations or corporate interests(as individuals) that don't?
Please tell us something to back up your rant. Are you somehow suffering from the delusion that public employee unions have more influence than multinational corporations who evade taxes in every way possible?
I don't think so. Don't rant. State your facts or shut up.
And your point is Golis? It sounds like you are another one of those leftists waiting for the revolution. You believe others that have more than you do, need to have it taken away and distributed to you and your comrades.
Golis look around this country and the world. There are people everwhere who have more than you by virture of hard work, inheritance, or just good fortune. They do not deserve to have it redistributed through an unfair tax structure, government confiscation, or being robbed.
People get ahead by working hard and having goals in this society. People who think like you do believe the government will solve the financial problems you could not solve by the misfortune of taking the wrong career path or the wrong job.
Speaking of political equity, the public unions which fund, elect and control the local and state politicians certainly have too much to say about how things are done in this county and in the state. The citizens or taxpayers, are left out in the cold. Now thats a political inequity.
Going to district elections in Santa Rosa would only strenghten the unions power over the city council.
Public unions are the moneyed interested in Sonoma County and Santa Rosa. Think unfunded public pensions and benefits.
Its hard for Golis to pretend his wisdom if you force him to actually identify facts rather than spew propaganda and speak in generalities.
Golis apparently felt no burden to identify even a single area in which one side of the city is being shortchanged in city services. Not one.
Are there fewer police or fire services on the west side? Are the streets paved better on the east? More parks on one side versus the other? If so, speak up. If not, what are you talking about?
The city is not in business of delivering "respect," which Golis worries about. The city delivers tangible services that can be measured. If those services are fairly apportioned, what's the beef?
Given the meager or no pay one gets for serving on city boards or commissions, it's not surprising that its members tend to fall withing certain ages and occupations. Most people with real jobs and families simply haven't the time to serve.
The myth that the interests of people living on the west side are different than those on east side needs to be recognized for what it is, a misguided effort to divide where no division exists.

Roseville Burglary Suspects Arrested
Share It.
At about 10 a.m. November 9, officers responded to a report of two men acting suspiciously near Pleasant Grove Boulevard and Roseville Parkway. Witnesses reported them going door to door, trying doors and acting like they were "casing" houses. An officer stopped the suspect vehicle, a black BMW, in the nearby Safeway parking lot, and detained one of the occupants.
The other suspect ran away into a residential neighborhood. Officers surrounded the area and, having received information that the other suspect was armed, notified two area schools to go on lockdown. After about an hour of searching with help from the Rocklin Police Department, a Roseville Police K9 unit found the second suspect near Castle Hill Court. He was detained without further incident.
Officers found that a home in the 500 block of Sutherland Ranch Lane had been broken into. Two handguns and jewelry that had been taken from the house were recovered. A 20-year-old male from Sacramento was arrested on suspicion of burglary and conspiracy, and a 21-year-old male from Sacramento was arrested on suspicion of burglary, conspiracy, being a felon in possession of a firearm, and violation of parole.

NORTH ANDOVER — If the state proceeds with a proposed $3.9 million renovation of the terminal at Lawrence Municipal Airport, visitors will get to admire the handsome redwood planks now covered up by a drop ceiling.
They'll also get to view the interior of the terminal restored back to its original art deco architecture style of when it was built 56 years ago, according to Airport Manager Michael Miller.
"I can't wait to see what the terminal looked like back in its heyday — when it had scheduled airline service," Miller said as he discussed plans by the Massachusetts Department of Transportation Aeronautics Division to improve the airport's administrative facilities.
"It will be like opening up a time capsule – to a time when we had airline service on Northeast Airlines from Lawrence to New York. This project represents the first major work on that building since it was constructed in 1958. It will be restored to its glory days," Miller said.
Lawrence Municipal Airport is one of 15 general aviation airports throughout the state that would have new administrative quarters built or have existing facilities renovated under a five-year plan announced last week by MassDOT Secretary and CEO Richard A. Davey.
The $43.6 million in airport administrative building construction and improvements are part of a $12.7 billion transportation bond bill signed by Gov. Deval Patrick last month. The funds still must be appropriated for each project, which would be 95 percent state-funded with a required 5 percent local match. For Lawrence Municipal Airport, that would be a $195,000 cost for local government.
Project construction is estimated to take up to nine months. The design phase for the Lawrence Municipal Airport project is set for 2016 with construction to begin the following year, according to the MassDOT Aeronautics Division Master Plan for Administrative Building Programs at Massachusetts Airports, which was published April 4.

We visited the Glencoe Cafe because of the rave reviews on Trip Advisor and it did not disappoint. I chose the herb scone, which came with salmon, but asked for it with cheese, as I am a vegetarian. The request was accepted as no problem at all, delicious when served and I even got an unexpected price reduction when I paid. Service was exceptional and overall a very nice experience. No wonder it was packed!

Diplomats And Lawyers Try To Define 'Culturally Acceptable Food'
Here's a fine topic for a graduate seminar in anthropology: What makes food culturally acceptable? Cue discussions of values and taboos, tastes and traditions.
Now make room for diplomats and lawyers, because this question has popped up, improbably, during international negotiations at the UN's Food and Agriculture Organization in Rome.
The FAO's member nations are drafting voluntary guidelines for "responsible investment in agriculture and food systems." It's a response to concerns over "land grabs" — big-money investors buying up farm land, often in Africa, where ownership of land sometimes is unclear. In some cases, these investors have displaced small-scale farmers, leading to protests and even violence.
The new guidelines are supposed to clarify the difference between responsible and irresponsible agricultural investments. Responsible investments, according to the draft guidelines, will increase "sustainable production ... of safe, nutritious, diverse, and culturally acceptable food."
When this phrase went into the draft back in May, no one seemed to object. But by the time the talks reconvened in early August, it had set off a severe case of indigestion in the U.S. delegation.
The U.S. "was concerned that it could lead to some barriers to trade," says Doug Hertzler, who participated in the talks representing the anti-poverty group ActionAid. (Several U.S. officials didn't respond to our request for an interview. One wrote in an email that "these are ongoing negotiations so it would be premature for me to discuss them.")
According to others involved in the negotiations, U.S. officials did not say which foods they feared might be unfairly singled out as culturally unacceptable. Some speculated that the U.S. was worried about restrictions on genetically modified foods.
In any case, American negotiators demanded a definition of culturally acceptable, and they offered one: "For the purposes of this document, consumers, through the free exercise of their choices and demand, determine what food is culturally acceptable." In other words, as long as somebody wants to buy it, it's fine.
That market-based definition didn't go over well with others. ActionAid and other activist groups pushed for a definition that recognized the right of indigenous communities to maintain their traditions.
A representative from Uruguay described the importance of sheep herding in his country, suggesting that agricultural investments that undermined these communities might violate the guidelines. Meanwhile, some majority-Muslim countries in Asia and Africa "were concerned about pork," and potential pork production facilities, says Hertzler, who, as it happens, got his Ph.D. in anthropology.
In the end, the African delegations struck a deal with the U.S., and their language is in the current version of the guidelines, which are still under negotiation. According to this compromise, culturally appropriate food "is understood as food that corresponds to individual and collective consumer demand and preferences, in line with national and international law."
Elegant and memorable, it certainly is not. Heather Paxson, an anthropologist at MIT who teaches a course on food and culture, chuckled when she heard it. But Paxson is happy that government officials are recognizing, however awkwardly, that food is "much, much more than a nutrient delivery system."
Hertzler says that he and his colleagues barely noticed the phrase when it first appeared in the draft guidelines in May. They had other priorities. They wanted the guideline to focus, for instance, on the crucial role of investments by small-scale farmers, not just multinational companies.
But the phrase "seems important now," he says. It points out that food should be adequate "in a number of dimensions, one of them being cultural."
The guidelines will be discussed and perhaps approved at the next meeting of the FAO's Committee on Food Security in October.
In Settlement, Homeland Security Agrees To Reform 'Voluntary Departures'

CBO Forecast: There's Good News And Bad News

S.V. Date
The non-partisan Congressional Budget Office is giving both Republican and Democratic partisans fresh fodder for the talking points they've already staked out on the economy.
The country's gross domestic product, according to its new report, will grow at just 1.5 percent this year - proof, say Republicans, that President Obama and Senate Democrats have been unable to bring the country out of recession.
At the same time, the per-patient spending in Medicare actually decreased in the last year, a phenomenon CBO Director Douglas Elmendorf called "striking" - proof, say Democrats, that the cost-control measures in the Affordable Care Act are working, despite the GOP-led House's attempts to repeal the law.
Thursday's report is one of CBO's periodic forecasts about the federal budget and the economy. The group created a stir in February, when it projected that Obamacare would shrink the labor force because people would no longer feel compelled to work for an employer solely for access to health insurance.
Nothing quite as dramatic emerges from the new report, but it does contain a number of interesting tidbits.
Among those useful to Republicans:
- This year's budget deficit will be $506 billion, $14 billion larger than it predicted this spring, thanks to a weaker-than-expected economy.
- The labor market continues to be "slack," with an elevated unemployment rate and a decreased percentage of employees participating in the workforce.
- Medicaid spending is up 15 percent over last year, largely because the expansion of that program to cover more poor people was also part of the ACA.
And among the nuggets Democrats can use:
- The economy, which rebounded in the second quarter of this year after shrinking in the first quarter, should grow at a moderate 3 percent pace for the next couple of years.
- Inflation should remain below 2 percent a year through the next decade.
- The federal deficit, as a percentage of the economy, is under 3 percent - its lowest level since the financial crisis began, and should remain below 3 percent for the next four years.
Thursday's report does point out that, as a matter of policy, the CBO assumes existing law remains existing law when developing forecasts - even a law that is likely to change before the end of the year, like a package of tax breaks known as the "extenders."
Congress is almost certain to pass the dozens of large and small provisions benefiting businesses and individuals before its term expires in January - and when it does so, it will add about $100 billion a year to the deficit.
As these breaks are supported by both parties, neither party is likely to dwell on their cost.
Freemasonry Still Alive And Well, And (Mostly) Men-Only

Martin Kaste
The members of the Queen Anne Masonic Lodge near downtown Seattle are on the young side. The guy in charge is 26.
Danny Done, the lodge's worshipful master, is lounging on his designated chair in the room reserved for private ceremonies.
His title comes with a top hat, though he avoids putting it on — he says it makes him look dorky. But he does like other aspects of Masonic regalia, like his Templar sword. Done uses it to point to a diagram on the wall that charts out the different kinds of Masonry.
"Here, you have the first three degrees of Masonry," he explains, motioning to the chart. "Which gets you to, basically, the beginning step of this section, which is called the Scottish Rite. And the Scottish Rite was invented from a lecture series by a Scotsman in France."
Yes, one of America's oldest fraternities, the Masons, is still around. And in a conversation with Done, you quickly find they aren't nearly as secretive as you'd hoped — particularly in Washington. Rules in each state are set by a "Grand Lodge," and Washington's claims to be relatively liberal in the rules governing what can be shared about the organization's ceremonies.
And there's so much information on the Internet about those rituals, many Masons say, that there's little point in being mysterious about them.
Forging In-Person Connections In An Online World
For Done, the appeal of Freemasonry is pretty basic. "A lot of my best friends are here, and all of their friends typically come around, too, and it just becomes a really interesting social network that's not online," he says.
A generation ago, Freemasonry began to decline, and many of the fraternity's buildings around the country were being turned into movie theaters. Membership in the U.S. fell from almost 4.1 million in 1960 to about 1.3 million in 2012. While membership is still falling, those declines have been less steep in recent years.
"Twenty years ago, I would not have been optimistic," says William Moore, a scholar of American Freemasonry who teaches American Studies at Boston University. "I would have said, "Yes, they were relics of a time that's left behind.' "
But historically, he says, the fraternity does well during times of economic instability for men. The U.S. is in that kind of time right now.
And some millennials, Moore says, are looking for the kind of long-lasting commitment available in a lodge.
"They know that those men will be their brothers no matter what their economic structure is," Moore says. "So they know that they can change jobs five, six, seven times in their careers, but they won't be changing the lodge they belong to, they won't be changing the men who are their fraternal brothers."
On a warm Saturday, 150 brothers are on their lunch break in a private masonic park about an hour outside of Seattle. They're in the woods, but they're also wearing suits, because they're here for the outdoor version of the masonic initiation ceremony.
There are brothers here from Prince Hall lodges, which are historically African-American, as well as brothers from Canada. In fact, the grand master of British Columbia, Philip Durell, is here — his proper title is grand master of the Most Worshipful Grand Lodge of Ancient and Accepted Freemasons of British Columbia and Yukon.
Still 'Just Guys'
If you ask Durell about the fraternity's rule excluding women, he admits that it's "tough to defend." But, he says, the rule means a lot to the brothers. "Men behave differently when women are there. And they don't open up the same way as they will when it's just guys there."
A few lodges in the U.S. do initiate women, but they're not recognized by the more traditional masons. The organization instead points to special sister organizations for women, like the Order of the Eastern Star, and the fact that wives are often part of a lodge's social life — they just can't take part in the ceremonies.
So back at the Masonic Family Park, the women do crafts while the men hold their ceremony. Vicky Roberts, the wife, or "lady," of Washington State's grand master, says she doesn't resent being excluded.
"Men are generally not as social as ladies are," she says. "They get stressed out — they don't really make the time that the ladies do to connect with other men."
The men need that time, Roberts says. And besides, she adds, the women are probably having a better time in their part of the campground, eating and chatting, while the men spend the day in the woods, sweating in their suits.
Life After Ice Buckets: ALS Group Faces $94 Million Challenge
Hear this

Reported by
Pam Fessler
The ALS ice bucket challenge continues to bring in huge donations this summer for efforts to cure and treat what's commonly known as Lou Gehrig's disease. As of today, the viral campaign has raised more than $94 million for the ALS Association. That's compared with $2.7 million raised by the group during the same time last year.
Now the association faces a challenge of its own: figuring out the best way to spend all that money.
"It's amazing. It's perhaps a little overwhelming," says Barbara Newhouse, the group's president and CEO.
She says it's a huge responsibility, handling more money than they've ever had before.
"It's sort of like the lottery winner that receives a lot of money and four years later is looking in the mirror saying, 'What did I do with all that money? Where did it go?' " she says. "We don't want to be that kind of lottery winner. We want to take this money and very thoughtfully plan out exactly what we're going to do with it."
Newhouse says the group has already begun consulting with clients, volunteers and its 38 chapters across the country on how the money should be spent. She says the focus is on expanding the work they already do — funding scientific research, providing care and counseling for ALS patients and their families, and advocacy. Proposals will be discussed at a board of trustees meeting in October. And then, she says, decisions will be made — very carefully.
"It's not about spending money quickly. It's about spending money thoughtfully," she says.
Ken Berger agrees, with a caveat. He's president and CEO of Charity Navigator, which rates and analyzes U.S. charities. His group gives the ALS Association four stars, its highest rating. But Berger also says the ALS charity faces a tough balancing act — investing the money well, but not sitting on it for too long. He says most donors expect the money they give to be spent in a timely way.
"You'll see situations where charities have stockpiled money when they've gotten an influx like this, and donors have gotten very upset about it," Berger says. "Because their expectation is: The problem is now, the need is now, the organization needs to step up and dramatically increase its services."
He and others recall how outraged donors were when the American Red Cross received hundreds of millions of dollars after the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks and then diverted some of the funds to other needs.
Berger says, no matter what it decides, the ALS Association has to share its plans as soon as possible, so people know what to expect.
Patrick Rooney, associate dean at Indiana University's School of Philanthropy, says he thinks most donors understand that curing a neurodegenerative disease such as ALS is a long-term investment, but he warns, "Everybody will be watching. So a year from now, people will say, 'Where did that money go, and what's the social return on that investment?' "
Barbara Newhouse says she's well-aware of all this, and that she's already been inundated with advice.
"I'm getting e-mails, everything from, 'Spend the money this way,' to e-mails that say, 'Take your time, do it right,' to people who say, 'I've got the cure for ALS, so just pay me, and I'll give you the cure.' I'm getting it all," Newhouse says.
She admits, though, for someone running a charity, there are worse problems to have.

Henrik Lundqvist confirmed tonight what many people already believe – that he is the best goaltender in the National Hockey League. After giving up the lead late before allowing Chris Neil's winning goal 1:17 into overtime in Game 2, Lundqvist came out in Ottawa and stoned the Senators to the tune of 39 saves and the first star of the game honors.
Not to be outdone, Brian Boyle scored his third goal in three games in the playoffs. Boyle continued his strong two way play despite being booed every time he touched the puck tonight.
"Honestly it was a surprise." Boyle continued, "But if I'm the villain to them, that's good."
If Boyle is the villain in Ottawa, than he's every bit as much the hero in New York. After arriving in New York in a trade from the Los Angeles Kings in the summer of 2009, Boyle struggled to make his mark, scoring only six points in 71 games. The next summer, Boyle recommitted himself to his game, while John Tortorella decided in his mind that Boyle would be ticketed for the AHL. He refused to be unnoticed in training camp, earned a roster spot, and put up a career-best 21 goals and 35 points while becoming a top penalty killer and defensive center.
While the scoring wasn't always there this season, Boyle improved his face-offs and remained the top defensive forward on the team. The same shots that found a way in last season had found a way to stay out this season. However, the last nine games of the season saw Boyle heat up and score five goals over that span.
His hard work finally began to pay off, and has continued thus far into the playoffs, and his efforts all over the ice have not gone unnoticed.
"A lot of us can start following his lead," Tortorella said. "That's what he's doing now. Leading."
The tell tale sign that Boyle has been doing things the 'Ranger way' could be seen on his goal. Boyle was heading toward the side wall when the puck was rimmed around the corner and up towards the point. As soon as Boyle noticed the puck would be past him, he turns around and heads right to the front of the net, and got a fortunate bounce off a Dan Girardi point shot and roofed the puck over Craig Anderson on the backhand.
Not every hockey player is willing to get to the dirty areas of the ice like the front of the net, but Boyle is. The fruit of his labor can be seen on the scoreboard.
"He's just playing like a man out there. He's a big guy, he's getting on the forecheck, he's hanging onto pucks, and he's put some big goals in the net for us," said Girardi.
For the most part, the Rangers stars up front have been kept quiet, and if not for the secondary scoring that all teams need, this series could be different.
One thing that is never different about this Rangers team is the attention to detail. You could see it tonight, after Erik Karlsson skated circles around them Saturday night, with a goal and 10 shots, the Rangers forwards stayed close to him. While still giving having five shots on goal, Karlsson stayed off the scoresheet, like every other Senator, thanks in part to Lundqvist.
Lundqvist battled through screens all night, and stood tall against Ottawa's chances that came from their lateral movement with the puck.
"I felt like we did a really good job. Trying to keep them to the outside, and making very good decisions out there with the puck. And you need to against this team," said Lundqvist. "Halfway through I had a feeling the next goal was going to be huge."
Confidence is key for goaltenders, and few are more intense than Lundqvist. "I was still upset after the last game, the way we let it slip away. Going into this one I was really…determined."
Lundqvist made big save after big save tonight, but none bigger than one on a tip by Kyle Turris with just under minute to play in the game.
All in all, Lundqvist came away with his fourth career playoff shutout after amassing eight in the regular season.
And on a night that saw big performances from several of the Rangers' veteran players, Chris Kreider, the rookie winger who signed his first professional contract last week after winning the National Championship as part of the Boston College hockey program. Kreider, instructed to specifically watch and take notes on Carl Hagelin's game, took the spot of the suspended winger on the top line aside Marian Gaborik and Brad Richards.
Kreider, who played 11:11, all at even strength, and had a decent scoring chance in the second, was replaced on the top line by Derek Stepan late in the game, because Tortorella wanted him to observe what the Rangers were trying to get accomplished. "It's a hell of a spot we're putting the kid in…there are things he needs to work on…I'm really happy the way he played."
Kreider, who's blazing speed and skill alone were enough in college, knows things in the NHL are different. "What it takes at this level…it's a winning brand of hockey." If Kreider continues to play well, when Hagelin returns to the lineup, it would be hard to take Kreider out, so players such as John Mitchell may want to up their game moving forward.
After the Rangers won Game 1, Ottawa came out hard and won Game 2. Tonight, one bounce for Ottawa and the 1-0 decision could have been in favor of the Sens. It will surely be interesting to see how Ottawa responds Wednesday, and how the Rangers handle their second lead of the series. If Daniel Alfredsson, Ottawa's captain on and off the ice, returns from the concussion he received from Carl Hagelin's elbow, it may be the inspirational lift the Senators need, and the Rangers need to be prepared.
Both teams are still waiting for their guns on offense to wake up. If it happens for either the Senators or Rangers, the opposing team could be in trouble. The Rangers will need to stick to their game, and hope it's their stars that shine brighter in game four and beyond.

Runners pounded the pavements for a charity run in memory of a popular football coach who died of a heart attack.
More than 80 people took part in the inaugural Burwell Beer Run on Sunday, a two-mile fun run through the village where runners had to stop off for a drink of beer or juice at The Five Bells pub, in High Street, The Anchor pub and The Fox pub, both in North Street.
Jack Smith, of Swaffham Road, Burwell, organised the race to raise money for the British Heart Foundation (BHF) in memory of his dad Neale who died in 2009 aged 48, when he suffered a heart attack while playing football.
Neale was a keen footballer and a founding member of the Burwell Tigers where Jack now coaches.
Jack, who works for Peterborough City Council, said: "There were 85 people doing the race in total and the atmosphere was amazing.
"I thought it was going to be organised chaos to be honest but everyone loved it.
"They are already putting pressure on me to do it again next year."
Despite the morning rain, competitors ranging from children in prams to elderly runners turned out, with winning runner Sarah Baumber completing the race in just 17 minutes.
Jack is still totting up the money raised but it has already brought in more than £500, which he said was "a really, really good result".
He added: "Dad was a keen fundraiser and he did enjoy a drink in the pub so he would have definitely been up for something like this. I think he would have really enjoyed it."
Jack thanked everyone who took part, particularly the three pub landlords for their support and Burwell Community Centre for providing parking for the event.
Keen runner Jack is planning to take on the London Marathon in a few weeks time and the money raised during the Beer Run will go towards his £2,500 fundraising target for the BHF.
