High school student killed by classmate
A student fatally shot a 15-year-old classmate Thursday at a high school, police said, as other teenagers watched in horror as the victim clutched his chest and fell to the floor.
Police identified the victim as Ryan McDonald, a sophomore who lived with his grandmother and had alopecia, a condition that left him bald since he was 3 and the target of endless teasing as a child.
"He tried to have a tough exterior, like a shield, to fit in," his uncle Roger McDonald said. "He was a good kid … who was dealt some bad cards in life."
The shooting happened shortly after 8 a.m. at the Central High School cafeteria, Deputy Chief Bill Roehl said, and the suspected shooter was taken into custody six minutes later on a nearby street. The suspect and victim knew each other, a school official said.
Jamar Siler, 15, was charged with one count of first-degree murder and was being held in a juvenile detention facility.

Woman arrested over library fines
A Wisconsin woman has been arrested and booked for failing to pay her library fines.
Twenty-year-old Heidi Dalibor told the News Graphic in Cedarburg that she ignored the library's calls and letters as well as a notice to appear in court.
Still, she was surprised when officers with a warrant knocked on her door, cuffed her and took her to the police station to be fingerprinted and photographed.
Police Capt. Joe Gabrish said officers follow the same procedure with every warrant.
Library director John Hanson said a couple of dozen people are cited each year for failure to return materials or pay fines.
The incident cost Dalibor about $30 for the two overdue paperbacks. It cost her mother $172 to free her.

2003 Abreu Cabernet Sauvignon Madrona Ranch
"The 2003 Cabernet Sauvignon Madrona Ranch is just an amazing wine in the vintage. Notes of smoked meats intermixed with licorice, camphor, graphite, blackberry, and flowers, with a hint of cedar and spice box, have produced a wine that is more up-front and forward than most Abreu wines have been, and gorgeously rich and full-bodied."

"The 2003 Dominus is a blend of 88% Cabernet Sauvignon, 7% Cabernet Franc and 5% Petit Verdot (14.1% alcohol). Remarkably, it is the 20th vintage for Christian Moueix. Always a Bordeaux-inspired wine with restraint yet substance as well as a textured richness, the 2003 exhibits a deep plum/ruby/purple color, a creamy, opulent texture, no hard edges, and a wonderful sweetness of foresty, black currant and cherry fruit mixed with underbrush and hints of Chinese black tea. Well-proportioned and full-bodied, yet never over-stated or out of balance, this is another beauty from Moueix." -Robert Parker, Jr.

Community events in city celebrate Thanksgiving
MANCHESTER - Thanksgiving Day in Manchester will be more than just eating turkey and shopping at Walmart.
Several organizations have scheduled community events for Thanksgiving Day in the Queen City. Hundreds are expected for a pancake breakfast, a high-school football game and a foot race that will close down streets in the Millyard.
The events offer outdoor activities on the morning of a day designed for people to engorge themselves with a family meal anytime from early afternoon to early evening. This year, critics have complained that the giant retailer Walmart will be open all day, and Walmart and other retailers are pushing Black Friday sales into Thursday night.
"This is one person you won't find shopping on Thanksgiving Day," said Greg Hunt, commander of the Sweeney American Legion post. The Maple Street organization holds a traditional Thanksgiving Day pancake breakfast from 7 to 10 a.m. The cost is $3.50, and Hunt said the event is open to the public.
Some of the breakfast customers usually include fans watching the Turkey Bowl, the annual football game that puts the best two high school teams from Manchester schools onto the Gill Stadium gridiron. This year's game, which features Manchester High School-Central and Trinity High School, is slated to begin at 10:15 a.m.
For those who prefer to participate rather than spectate in an athletic event, the Fisher Cats Thanksgiving Turkey Trot, a 5-kilometer run, starts at 9 a.m. and is expected to involve 1,500 or more runners. It is put on by Millenium Running, which organizes runs associated with Christmas, St. Patrick's Day and the Merrimack Ribfest.
Manchester police said motorists should avoid Grante Steet and the Millyard during the race time. Southbound lanes of Commerical and Canal streets will be closed to traffic for the runners, and police especially urge motorists to avoid the Granite Street brige, which runners will cross twice.

Butter on a Doughnut??
- n
- ntvandehey Mar 4, 2009 07:27 PM
Has anyone ever put butter on a doughnut? I ask because I remember growing up that it was something my family did with a crueller.
I know it may sound like the grossest thing ever to some of you, but if you get the right amount on the right doughnut... it can be heavenly.
Anyway, please let me know if you've ever heard of this practice or if you have indulged in it yourself.
never tried that but butter is good on anything. i used to eat margerine on digestive cookies
My grandfather used to put butter on Little Debbie snack cakes. Doughnuts (other than sweet-sixteen type mini doughnuts) weren't readily available in their area until the mid 1990's, so they just weren't something he ate routinely, but he probably would have put butter on a doughnut if had the chance.
Oh, that's definitely something my husband would do (and has done!) Just can't find crullers for him anymore. Just as well, since he's now taking Zocor for his chloresterol!
re: moma1bud
ummm.....what's a cruller?
re: LA Buckeye Fan
This: http://www.retrocom.com/retromilw/cru...
Not to be confused with a French cruller: http://www.geocities.co.jp/HeartLand/...
re: Caitlin McGrath
Interesting. That cruller at retrocom looks like what we call a long john. But the geocities link leads me only to a japanese-language Yahoo.
re: lemons
Doughnut styles and names seem to be quite regional. When I moved to NY from the west coast, I rarely if ever saw French crullers, the only crullers I'd ever known, and learned that the thing in the first pic I linked was called a cruller there. Also, that there are no old fashioneds on the east coast - people thought I just meant a regular cake doughnut, not this: http://jschumacher.typepad.com/photos...
Anyway, lots of things called crullers: http://images.google.com/images?sourc...
re: Caitlin McGrath
Hmmm, that's weird. Even Dunkin' Donuts has old-fashioneds...maybe they don't call them that anymore. But they looked nothing like the pic you posted. I've never seen a doughnut like that--it's like a doughnut in a ring of more doughnut. Interesting! As is the cell phone holder photo. HA HA!
re: kattyeyes
What Dunkin Donuts calls an old fashioned is a regular cake doughnut. The texture of the old fashioned I linked to, buth inside and outside, with its wonderfully crisp ridged exterior bits, is completely different. And the flavor has a nice tang from buttermilk. My favorites are the completely unglazed ones - not super-sweet, so you can appreciate the texture and flavor on their own.
re: Caitlin McGrath
So your old fashioneds are a West Coast thang? They look very tasty...as does the chocolate glaze.
re: Caitlin McGrath
Caitlin McGrath, my brief 2 months in San Gabriel Valley introduced me to the buttermilk bars, and many other delicious donuts there, from a place called Uncle Joe's ( i think). I'd hate to admit it, but donut is one of the things NYC doesn't do as well for whatever reason....
In any case, yes on thinly sliced cold French butter accompanied by some donut, or soda cracker, or cracked wheat cracker, and pound cake, and Japanese steamed spongy cheese cake....the list doesn't end.
re: Caitlin McGrath
When I lived in NYC I used to go to a place on 14th St. and 7th Avenue that had great French Crullers, so I know they are there.
I never thought about the old fashioned as a west coast thing, but I'm glad we have them out here.
re: sku
Oh yes, you can find French crullers, just rarer than in CA; same with apple fritters. Mainly, I meant to point out that there are lots of variations in the terminology. The NY cruller (non-French) is I think basically what in CA is a buttermilk bar.
And I used to go to that shop on 14th at 7th, too. I am a very infrequent doughnut eater, but there I could get a cinnamon-sugar cruller that would help with the buttermilk bar/old fashioned jones. It had the right flavor, but of course not the great crispy ridges of an old fashioned.
re: Caitlin McGrath
I can't stand cake donuts, have never eaten a cruller, but once a year or so I need a "chocolate old fashioned." It looks just like your picture and I nibble around the outside, then break up the inside and eat that -- and then I'm done for a year. I love the fact that they're crunchy, but the chemical aftertaste isn't great. Never knew they were a west coast thing.
re: Caitlin McGrath
I tried to find a crueller picture, but nothing looked like the ones I used to get when I was a kid. I thought the sticks were twistier. It's been a long time since I had one. I just remember fighting with my cousin about it because he called them "crawlers!" ;)
Here's some good French crueller food porn for ya:
re: kattyeyes
Check out the cruller link in my reply to lemons above. In the second photo, in the second row down, is the glazed twisted one on the left side of the box the one you know?
re: Caitlin McGrath
Exactly, yes it is!
re: kattyeyes
I had no idea how regional doughnuts were until I moved to the other side of the country.
re: Caitlin McGrath
Thank you Caitlin. Learn something new everyday on this site.
re: Caitlin McGrath
Flickr has a great description of what I call a cruller/crueller.
Both types are here... Wisconsin will call the one on the right a cruller
Then the inside with a good view of its fantastic glazing
Thanks for all the replies... I'm happy to hear others are enjoying buttered doughnuts too. Now its time for me to try a fried cinnamon roll....
Doughnuts were a Sunday morning ritual in our house when I was growing up. My father would go to the bakery before church to pick up a dozen in or so in a wide variety but always included a couple of the powdered sugar coated fried doughnuts. He had a very particular way to eat these. He would cut it into quarters and spread a little butter on one cut end of each quarter. Each quarter was eaten in two bites, the first bite with the buttered end and then the remainder of that quarter popped in the mouth for the second.
I still eat my powdered sugar doughnuts this way.
re: kmcarr
That is about the same as my Dad would do. Bag of powdered donuts with margarine was a breakfast staple at our home in the 60's and 70's
re: tatamagouche
"My first thought was "that's revolting"—my second thought was, "mmmm....revolting...."
LOL - me too!!
re: breakfastfan
My mom slices her cinnamon rolls in half and fries them in a frying pan until lightly browned. They are really good that way. I'd never had a cinnamon roll that wasn't buttered and fried until I tried a cinnabon at the mall when I was in high school.
re: jeanmarieok
Come to think of it I know of 2 restaurants in the Los Angeles area that make French toast out of cinnamon rolls........add butter & syrup.
re: breakfastfan
That secret special sounds so wrong and wonderful. I'm trying it Saturday morning.
we always put butter on cinnamon rolls, that doesn't seem that different from buttering a doughnut. but, no, not yet.
re: kattyeyes
Sometimes the thought of good, fresh butter at room temperature makes me want to just eat it off a spoon, so the oyster crackers sound darn reasonable to me :) I have seen my mom butter individual wheat thins. I guess neither of us fell too far from the buttered Little Debbie tree.
re: mpjmph
HA HA, this is true! :)
re: kattyeyes
Yeah, I think that's really cute actually!
re: mpjmph
My Mom used to top a saltine with a slice of better (well, it was probably Parkay, she tended to buy it often) and then a dab of jelly- I used to gag, until I tried it...... (salty and sweet almost always wins!)
re: mpjmph
Speaking of eating butter with a spoon -- I was on vacation last week staying in a condo (with kitchen), so I bought food, including a half pound of salted Kerrygold butter. I left it out, 'cause I like my butter at room temp, and kept dipping various stuff (including a spoon) into it. I proved that "everything is better with butter" when I smeared some dark chocolate covered raisins with it -- they were amazingly delicious!
Doesn't sound gross to me. Growing up in Hawaii, one of my favorite pastries was an ensamada which is a sweet rolled pastry slathered in butter and dusted with sugar. YUM. There's also a place here in Seattle that makes excellent cinnamon rolls, served warm with gooey icing and butter. It's the butter that makes them great. I imagine butter on the right doughnut would be equally great.
sounds yummy to me! i tend to microwave my donuts (depending on the variety - not the filled ones) for a few seconds. the thought of smearing some butter on a warmed toffee glazed doughnut is making my mouth water.
re: wontonfm
Yeah, I'm thinking "donut explosion" for filled donuts on a trip to the microwave. ;)
Never tried a buttered donut, but I do put butter and cream cheese on my bagels (yes both) and I've been known to make a butter and Mortadella sandwich (if I'm in need of fatty comfort) ANNNND I of course top muffins with butter (any kind/all kinds) - I freaked out when I opened a stick of butter and later, after breakfast, 1/2 of it was gone!!

Daniel Vasile Petrescu (born 22 December 1967) is a Romanian football manager and former player, who currently manages Al-Arabi in Qatar.[2]
He is famous for having played for Steaua Bucharest in the 1989 European Cup Final and winning the UEFA Cup Winners' Cup and UEFA Super Cup with FA Premier League club Chelsea. Petrescu also received 95 international caps for the Romanian national side.
Club career[edit]
After playing for Steaua Bucureşti's youth teams, Dan Petrescu was promoted into the first team in 1986 in a game played by Steaua just one month after winning the European Cup. Petrescu was loaned to FC Olt for the 1986–87 season, but asked to come back to Steaua Bucureşti in 1987.
He was part of the Steaua Bucharest squad that reached the European Cup semifinals (1988) and the final (1989). Also in 1989 he played for the Romanian national team for the first time, but missed the World Cup of the following year due to an injury.
In 1991 he was bought by Foggia of Italy, in a period when the club saw promotion to Serie A. In 1993 he moved to Genoa.
Petrescu signed for Sheffield Wednesday in 1994 from Genoa, after a successful World Cup for Romania. After one season at Hillsborough he signed for Chelsea and featured prominently there for the next five years. During his term at Chelsea, he was a member of the teams which won the FA Cup in 1997 and the League Cup and Cup Winners' Cup (both in 1998). After falling out with Chelsea manager Gianluca Vialli after a defeat to Manchester United, Petrescu never played for the club again and was not even selected as a substitute for the 2000 FA Cup Final against Aston Villa. Turning down a move to Southampton in August 2000,[3] he instead moved to Bradford City for £1 million, scoring once against West Ham.[4]
In January 2001, Petrescu's former Chelsea manager, Glenn Hoddle eventually persuaded him to join Southampton for a "nominal" fee.[3] He initially settled in well at The Dell, scoring against Leicester[5] and Manchester City[6] in his first few matches.[7] In March, Hoddle left "the Saints" to take up the managerial reins at Tottenham Hotspur and his replacement Stuart Gray dropped Petrescu, replacing him with Hassan Kachloul for the rest of the season.[7] After making only two substitute appearances in the 2001–02 season, Petrescu was released and returned to Romania.[3]
Petrescu returned to his native Bucharest for a last season as a football player, with FC Naţional. His last match was the Romanian Cup final, on 31 May 2003. Naţional lost 1–0 to Dinamo Bucharest, during which Petrescu received a lot of abuse from some of the Dinamo fans as he left the pitch at the end of ninety minutes, even though it was the last game of one of Romania's greatest footballers. This was because he used to play for Dinamo's greatest rivals, Steaua Bucureşti.
International career[edit]
Petrescu registered 95 caps for the Romanian national football team. He made his debut for the squad in 1989, and played at four major tournaments: the 1994 World Cup, Euro 96, the 1998 World Cup, where the entire team famously dyed their hair blond after losing a bet with the team's coach Anghel Iordanescu, and Euro 2000.
He missed the 1990 World Cup due to an injury. In 1994 Petrescu played in his first World Cup in the U.S.. He scored the only goal in a win against the United States which saw Romania qualify for the second round as group winners. They were then handed a difficult game against Argentina which they managed to win, only to lose to Sweden on penalties in the quarter-finals, with Petrescu missing his spot-kick.
Euro 96 was a disappointment for Romania, as they lost all three group matches and only managed to score one goal.
At France 1998, he raced past his Chelsea teammate Graeme Le Saux and scored the winning goal against England, which effectively won them the group and ensured they would not have to face Argentina in the second round. He became the second Romanian player to score in two different World Cups after Stefan Dobay. In the end, the Romanians lost their second round game 1–0 to Croatia.
He was an important piece of the Romanian team at Euro 2000, where they survived a group with Portugal, Germany and England. A new victory over the English team was decisive to qualify for quarter-finals. Romania won all the games where Petrescu scored.
Coaching career[edit]
Rapid Bucureşti[edit]
Petrescu pursued a career as a coach. He resigned from Rapid Bucureşti in October 2004, after only six games and four months at the helm.
Wisła Kraków[edit]
On 1 January 2006 Dan Petrescu became the manager of Polish 2004–05 champions Wisła Kraków, replacing the temporary coach Tomasz Kulawik. Wisła finished second in the 2005–06 championship. He was dismissed as manager of Wisła Kraków on 18 September 2006, after unconvincing results in the 2006–07 season. Petrescu accused the players of Wisła Kraków for not wanting to train hard to improve their performances.
Unirea Urziceni[edit]
About a week later, he was appointed as the manager of Romanian Liga 1 newly promoted team Unirea Urziceni, with which he has had considerable success since then. Under his management, Unirea Urziceni was runner-up in the 2007–08 Romanian Cup and qualified for the 2008–09 edition of the UEFA Cup. He was considered for the vacant manager's position at his former club Steaua after Marius Lăcătuş's resignation in October 2008. Dorinel Munteanu was appointed instead, but Petrescu has not ruled out a future role at the club. In May 2009, he went on to win the Liga 1 title with outsiders Unirea Urziceni, the first title for both Petrescu and his club, and consequently achieving qualification to the UEFA Champions League 2009–10, during which he led Unirea to a shock 4–1 victory at Ibrox against Rangers and a win against Sevilla at home, 1–0.
Petrescu resigned as manager of Unirea Urziceni in December 2009.
Kuban Krasnodar[edit]
On 28 December 2009 the Russian First Division club Kuban Krasnodar hired the former Unirea Urziceni coach on a five-year deal.[8]
Dan Petrescu managed to gain promotion in his first season, winning the 2010 Russian First Division with a total of 80 points, 9 clear of second place. His team conceded only 20 goals in 38 matches.[9]
On 14 August 2012 it was announced that Petrescu had decided to quit as manager of Kuban Krasnodar, citing the need for a new challenge. His resignation as manager of Kuban Krasnodar shocked the players and fans. After his resignation, Petrescu was regarded as one of the best young coaches working in Russian football.[10]
Dynamo Moscow[edit]
Petrescu signed a three-year contract in August 2012, worth €2.5 Million a year according to the Romanian press, to take over Dynamo Moscow.[11] On 8 April 2014, though, contract was terminated by mutual agreement after heavy loss to League outsiders Anzhi Makhachkala 0–4.[12] As Dynamo Moscow director of sports Guram Adzhoyev stated, "last year Dan drew the team from the complicated situation, lifted it to the certain level, but recently we have seen no progress".[13]
The Middle East[edit]

Researcher awarded NCI grant to investigate novel anti-tumor vaccine
Xiang-Yang (Shawn) Wang, Ph.D., was recently awarded a $310,213 grant from the National Cancer Institute to support his research involving large stress proteins (LSPs) in immune regulation and cancer immunotherapy. Wang is a VCU Massey Cancer Center Harrison Scholar, member of the VCU Institute of Molecular Medicine and associate professor of human and molecular genetics at the VCU School of Medicine.
New therapy for blood cancers developed
Clinical researchers at VCU Massey Cancer Center have successfully completed a phase 1 clinical trial evaluating a combination of the drugs Bortezomib and Alvocidib in patients with relapsed or refractory blood cancers, paving the way for a phase 2 clinical trial to test the safety and effectiveness of the new therapy.
Researcher named Fulbright Scholar
Virginia Commonwealth University Massey Cancer Center Senior Analyst J. Brian Cassel, Ph.D., was recently named a Fulbright Scholar by the United States Department of State and the J. William Fulbright Foreign Scholarship Board. Cassel will depart in early 2012 for London, where for six months he will collaborate with researchers at the King's College London Cicely Saunders Institute to measure the economic impact of end-of-life care in the U.K. and U.S.
Gov. McDonnell presents $5 million to Massey to support cancer research
At a celebration event today, Gov. Bob McDonnell ceremonially presented a check representing $5 million in state appropriations for fiscal year 2012 to Virginia Commonwealth University Massey Cancer Center. The funding was approved by the General Assembly this winter when the body accepted the governor's budget amendment to provide the additional resources for the center. The $5 million allocation will help Massey to expand and strengthen its research as it works toward achieving National Cancer Institute (NCI) Comprehensive status, the highest level of distinction for a cancer center. Comprehensive status would make Massey the only facility in Virginia with such a designation, and one of only 40 nationally.
Massey physicians recognized as Top Docs by Richmond Magazine
Physicians at Virginia Commonwealth University Massey Cancer Center were reported as "Top Docs" in Richmond Magazine's April 2011 issue. Honored with this recognition were 24 of Massey's doctors. These selections were the result of a survey that asked Richmond-area physicians whom they would recommend in a range of specialties. Several of Massey's doctors appeared in more than one category.

Daniel Treadwell, son of Daniel Treadwell (1809-1854) & Nancy Lee (1817-1885) is living with his parents/mother in Searcy Co., AR in 1850 & 1860 & 1870. In 1900, he is living with his wife Phebe in Searcy Co., AR. While William and Jane are his children with Phebe, Georgia, May, and Monroe are with an unknown first wife. In 1910, Daniel is living in Johnson Co., AR with wife Matty or Hatty. His son William is present, as well as 2 young children with Matty, And Matty's daughter from a previous marriage.
In the 1850-1900 Arkansas Marriage Index, a Daniel Treadwell marries Nancy A. Rader on July 28, 1879 in Conway Co., AR. This date matches the guestimate from the 1900 census.
In the 1851-1900 Missouri Marriage Index, a Daniel Treadwell marries a Phebe Jones on August 12, 1888 in Howell Co., Missouri
I do know the Daniel's daughter May married George Winn in Franklin Co., AR in 1904 and died during childbirth in 1905 in Johnson Co., AR.
Is the Daniel in the census the same as in the marriage indices? Is Nancy the mother of Georgia, May, and Monroe? Where is Daniel in 1880? When did Nancy, Phebe, Daniel die? Too many questions, I hope someone can help. Thanks.

Gift Endows Directorship of Sallie Bingham Center for Women's History and Culture
A $1 million pledge to endow the directorship of the Sallie Bingham Center for Women's History and Culture at Duke University has been made by journalist, activist and women's health care pioneer Merle Hoffman, President Richard H. Brodhead announced Thursday.
"The Bingham Center is one of the leading women's history research centers in the U.S., documenting centuries of women's public and private lives, including education, literature, art and activism," Brodhead said. "We at Duke are grateful for this generous gift by Merle Hoffman, which will help further the Bingham Center's mission to preserve and promote the intellectual and cultural legacy of women from all walks of American life."
The center, part of the David M. Rubenstein Rare Book & Manuscript Library, is home to many of Hoffman's papers.
After abortion laws were liberalized in New York state in 1970, Hoffman founded Choices Women's Medical Center, one of the first ambulatory surgical centers for women, which has become one of the largest and most comprehensive women's medical facilities in the U.S.
In 2000, the Bingham Center acquired both Hoffman's papers and the records of Choices Women's Medical Center. Since then, the center has collected the papers of numerous other providers, clinics and reproductive rights organizations that document the work of activists, health care workers, attorneys and others involved in reproductive health.
The center also has a large body of works that documents four centuries of political activity surrounding women's reproductive rights, thanks in part to several generous gifts from Hoffman, said Deborah Jakubs, Rita DiGiallonardo University Librarian and vice provost for library affairs.
"Associating Merle Hoffman's name with the directorship creates an enduring connection between the Bingham Center's leadership and Hoffman's outstanding contributions to the health, safety and empowerment of women everywhere," Jakubs said.
Hoffman is also the publisher and editor-in-chief of On the Issues Magazine, and her autobiography, Intimate Wars: The Life and Times of the Woman Who Brought Abortion from the Back Alley to the Board Room, is set to be published in January 2012.
Hoffman said she decided to endow the center's directorship as a way "to continue to support the visionary efforts by Duke University to honor and document the many courageous women who have fought their own 'intimate wars' in the long struggle for reproductive justice. I hope that the Bingham Center will become the bridge between theory and practice that will catalyze future generations to joyfully go further and deeper in the continual battles for women's equality."
Center director Laura Micham said Hoffman's latest gift "will enable us to expand our activities and impact, bringing us closer to our goal of building one of the premier research centers for women's history and culture in the world."
The Sallie Bingham Center for Women's History and Culture was established in 1988 to acquire, preserve and provide access to published and unpublished materials that reflect the public and private lives of women, past and present. It is named in honor of author, playwright, teacher and feminist activist Sallie Bingham.
For more information, contact Aaron Welborn or Laura Micham.

Britain's fracking communities eye US-style payouts: Kemp
LONDON, Aug 15 (Reuters) – Fracking set off a modern day
land rush across the United States, as "land men" acting on
behalf of exploration and production companies scrambled to
secure rights to drill and fracture underground formations for
oil and gas.
Landowners received hundreds or even thousands of dollars
per acre in exchange for allowing wells to be drilled and
pressure pumped, and hundreds of thousands or even millions of
dollars more if the wells struck petroleum and were put into
What price for power at the flick of a switch? Kemp
LONDON, Aug 14 (Reuters) – Electrification was the single
greatest engineering achievement of the 20th century, according
to the U.S. National Academy of Engineering.
But buying electricity is not like buying a can of baked
beans. Irrespective of how much power households and businesses
use on any given day or month, they have come to expect that
nearly unlimited supply will always be available at any time at
the flick of a switch.
Fracking battle holds unflattering mirror up to Britain: Kemp
LONDON, Aug 13 (Reuters) – The village of Balcombe in West
Sussex has become the focal point for protests against hydraulic
fracturing in Britain. But Balcombe is also a fascinating
microcosm of the contradictions besetting Britain's policies on
energy and economic development.
Like households across the rest of the country, Balcombe's
residents use rather a lot of fossil fuels.
Computers, trees and terrorism, lessons from 2003 US blackout: Kemp
LONDON, Aug 12 (Reuters) – Exactly ten years ago, at 15:05
Eastern Time on August 14, 2003, an overhead power line came
into contact with an overgrown tree near Cleveland, Ohio.
What happened next is a frightening case study of how
vulnerable modern economies are to even a small disruption in
vital and highly interconnected systems.
Petroleum nationalism fades as super-cycle cools: Kemp
LONDON, Aug 9 (Reuters) – The balance of power between host
countries and petroleum companies has shifted decisively as a
result of the shale revolution and the push into deepwater oil
and gas fields off the coast of Latin America and Africa.
The first decade of the 21st century was dominated by talk
about increasing "resource nationalism" as governments demanded
a greater share of the revenues from natural resources located
on their territory.
U.S. cracks apart London's commodity market omerta: Kemp
LONDON, Aug 8 (Reuters) – "See no evil, hear no evil, speak
no evil" might well have been the motto for Britain's commodity
market regulators in recent years.
In too many instances, light-touch self-regulation by the
exchanges, overseen by the Financial Services Authority (FSA),
now reincarnated as the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA), has
degenerated into ineffective or no regulation.
U.S. shale mania costs latecomers dear: Kemp
LONDON, Aug 6 (Reuters) – Shale sceptics have seized on big
writedowns in the value of shale gas and oil properties in North
America to question whether the fracking revolution could be
running into trouble.
On Aug. 1, Shell became the latest in a long line
of oil and gas companies to reveal a multi-billion-dollar
writedown in acreage value.
'Free power Saturdays' herald electricity pricing revolution: Kemp
LONDON, Aug 1 (Reuters) – Centrica, which supplies
electricity in the United Kingdom through its British Gas
subsidiary, has said it could offer free power to residential
consumers on Saturdays from next year, provided they have a
smart meter installed.
"Free power Saturdays" are a masterful piece of marketing
and illustrate how quickly smart metering will transform the way
residential customers use and pay for electricity in Britain and
around the world.
More mines open, making rare earths less rare: Kemp
LONDON, Aug 1 (Reuters) – The United States has resumed
mining rare earths after more than a decade, ending its total
reliance on imports, mostly from China, for raw minerals
Washington says are critical for the economy and national
Responding to a quadrupling of prices between 2005 and 2011
and growing anxiety about supplies from China, Molycorp's
Project Phoenix has sought to resurrect domestic production.
More honesty needed about Britain's rising energy bills: Kemp
LONDON (Reuters) – Britain's gas and electricity suppliers should itemize customer bills to show how much of the total is related to the fuel costs, transmission charges, company margins and the government's own energy policies.
The recommendation is contained in a wide-ranging and insightful report on "Energy prices, profits and poverty" published on Monday by the House of Commons Select Committee on Energy and Climate Change.

- Food and service was fantastic.OpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 11/17/2014I recommend Sevy's to anyone. I let them know we were celebrating out 30th wedding anniversary and they had rose petals at our table, complimentary calamari, chocolate cake and champagne with a strawberry!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- second time in one weedKethleyVIPDined on 11/16/2014we enjoyed the menu so much, we had to go back. as was last week, Sevy's was great!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Outstanding!HotcakeDined on 11/14/2014We dined with friends from out of town. The experience could joy have been better. The waiter was very pleasant about waiting for the order while we had cocktails. The spinach five grain salad was amazing. Everyone one had a different entree and they were all outstanding. The tenderloin' Osso bucco, NY strip and red fish all get rave reviews. Thanks for the outstanding food and service for many years!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great spot on a cold nightKethleyVIPDined on 11/13/2014We went to R&D, but they were packed and so we figured there was no way we would get into Sevy's, but I hopped on open table and got a reservation. They are always so great and the food is always phenomenal. I've never been disappointed at Sevy's and this night was no different. From the calamari, to the corn chowder to the bacon wrapped quail. Everything was wonderful!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Sevy's was perfectoMarylouDined on 11/5/2014We arrived for an early lunch, so most of tables were empty. We were able to enjoy quiet conversation during simple but lovely soup & salad. I was first introduced to Sevy's Caesar at AIWF's Caesar Salad Tournament of Chefs many years ago. It was a winner then, and it's still the best in my estimation. Love the anchovies! Our server was attentive and pleasant. Look forward to the next time.Special Features:
- Nice business lunchldaschaVIPDined on 11/4/2014The service is always great and like all of the lunch menu selections. Gets busy and sometimes electric noise level, also offer outside dining. Still recommendSpecial Features:
- Always Consistently GoodThk22VIPDined on 10/18/2014We have eaten at Sevy's several times and have been pleased every time. The food and service is consistently outstanding. It is one of the few restaurants where fine wines are served by the glass. We would highly recommend Sevy's 's.Special Features:
- Not that great.NYCVisitorDined on 10/10/2014This is the second restaurant I have visited that says it is an old Highland/University Park standard. My conclusion is that is must be convenient because the food, service, and atmosphere are not that great. We visit Dallas several times per year and are alway looking for good restaurants and this was not one of them. I would rate this restaurant as being average at best.
- Disappointing FoodBusinessLuncheonDined on 10/8/2014While the salad I had was, from an overall perspective, pretty good, the chicken on the salad was underwhelming. I'm not sure if it was lacking in the right amount of sauce, if it was cooked too long, or just what. Bottom line, it was not as tender or tasty as I'd recalled from prior visits. On the whole, it was disappointing.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- DisappointingBradleyVIPDined on 10/3/2014The Resturant is beautiful on the inside as it very large and has an option for you to sit on the patio. Unfortunately there's smoking allowed which smells and interpheres with other diners. The wait staff are not all very professional or polished for this type of Resturant. My waiter made a comment to me saying that I was very picky with what I wanted. It was out if line as I was asking about food on the menu and had requested a martini a certain way. It was unprofessional so we didn't order found closed out the check and went to eat at Hilstone.Special Features:
- Great non smoking patioCherVIPDined on 10/2/2014Lots of choices on the menu but loved the mahi mahi! Sevys is consistent and they've been around for a long time, so I keep forgetting about them. I'll stop trying to think if a trendy place that's new and stick with Sevys for this neighborhood.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

- Sevy's-Great for LunchsloyoutonthetownDined on 9/30/2014Sevy's is the perfect spot for a business lunch in this part of Dallas. Great menu variety and quick service with reservations honored on time. A very nice place. I had the chop salad with grilled chicken. Granted its hard to mess up a salad but I especially loved this one. All of the lettuce and greens were chopped up into small pieces, the chicken was grilled, moist, and tender with absolutely no grease. I do not know how they made the dressing but it was light and delicious. Not too much and I had the large, $18.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

Vic Ruggiero at Kryptonite on Valentine's Day
By Jesus Correa VII
Valentine's Day is once again upon us, and once again many of us will spend this day alone. I've never been a big fan of the holiday for many reasons-all of which I will try not to get into here-but this one's different, because my buddy Vic is coming to town. I actually met Vic because of a heartache, and heartaches- if nothing else-are something Vic and I have in common. Vic Ruggiero, if you have ever had the opportunity to listen to his music, seems to be very familiar with the heartache, and what better day to explore those heartaches than on Valentine's Day, and what better city to spend a heartaching day in than this one?
So, Vic is traveling around the country playing his heartaching music, and he will spend his Valentine's Day here in Rockford with you, if you'll take the time to spend it with him. Vic is probably best known for his work with the ska/soul band the Slackers, for which he sings and plays the organ. He has also made music with the band called Rancid, and surprisingly recorded two songs with Pink-the things you find out about on the Internet-as well as many,many,many other acts that you can find out about on your own time, if you're interested. These are all fine projects, but Vic Ruggiero is a brilliant solo performer as well, and that's what we're talking about here. Winner of last year's first "Saddest Song in the World Contest," Vic lays his heart on the line with most every song he composes, and he performs these tunes with amazing fullness backed by no band-he simultaneously sings, plays the guitar, kickdrum and hi-hat, all by his lonesome-and he will do just that this very special Valentine's Day at Kryptonite in beautiful downtown Rockford. For a good, solid sampling of Ruggiero's work, go to www.myspace.com/vicruggiero.
The show begins at 8 p.m., Sunday, Feb. 14. Local singer-songwriter and fellow heart-achy musician Dave Pedersen will kick off the evening, followed by my band, called los osos voladores. Then, taking the stage will be our very special guest, Vic Ruggiero. A $5 donation for the musicians would greatly be appreciated and will be asked for at the door. This show is ideal for lovers and the lonely alike. Dancing is highly suggested. Kryptonite is at 308 W. State St.
For more information, you can contact me at firstname.lastname@example.com.

Old Mole Variety Hour
The Old Mole burrows down to the roots of the great issues of our time – the struggles of ordinary people for democratic and sustainable ways of life. The Mole goes where corporate media fear to tread, supporting grassroots challenges to top-down authority and giving voice to movements that shake the foundations of an unjust society. The Moles' perspective is democratic, broadly socialist, and feminist. (We count Karl Marx as a friend).
Here is why we call this show "The Old Mole"
Our theme "Mole in the Ground" is by Bascom Lamar Lunsford (1924), somtimes blended with a newer versions, like the one by dj/rupture, sung by Sindhu Zagoren. It's on the album Special Gunpowder.
Our graphic lettering is by Charlie Ertola. Host portraits by Clayton Morgareidge.

Economic Meltdown?
The economy seems to be melting down--but it has nothing to do with the production of goods and services, only with high finance. This crisis is brought to you by business men who refuse to trust other busness men--because the all know they're all lying. This from Bill Black, formerly a Federal bank examiner and now a writer on business and finance. He talks with Bill Resnick in this illuminating interview. Black is the author of The Best Way to Rob a Bank is to Own One.

Can Democracy Survive War?
Can democracy survive an open-ended, borderless war against an abstraction ("terrorism")? Recent reports of FBI abuse of National Security Letters and increased surveillance of ordinary life make us wonder. Clayton Morgareidge draws on Michael Hardt's and Antonio Negri's book Multitude: War and Democracy in the Age of Empire to explore these questions. The piece ends with the song "Last Night I Had the Strangest Dream" as sung by Satori, Men Singing Peace. Their concert, "A Time for Peace," will be at the Old Church following the Saturday Rally and March.

Avatar's Jake Sully is ---- Tarzan - - -
A great review I've seen on Avatar (and how the soldier will save the people):
There is a link from there that exposes Cameron's plot as a mirror of Pocahontas, amazing parallel! http://failblog.org/2010/01/10/avatar-plot-fail/
Since watching Avatar, I have viewed older videos on DVD and would rate that ahead of Avatar.
commentary transcripts
It's convenient to have the Old Mole audio files available.
Even more useful for some of us would be transcripts of the commentaries (Clayton Morgareidge). Written material allows a person a chance to review, consider, digest and refer to mentioned references & thinkers. The "Well Read Red" commentary from 4 Aug 08 is a good example of a piece I'd like to read at my own pace.
These folks are so profound
These folks are so profound and fascinating, especially the Resnick guy. Wow!
