Hamburgers are now a special order item at Wendy's
Stopped by Wendy's this week for an "old fashion" hamburger. Much to my surprise, their menu board no longer shows a hamburger. When questioned, I was told I'd have to buy a cheeseburger and request they hold the cheese. Bye Bye......
I've seen other fast food joints do this, except when you order a hamburger, they generally just punch it in themselves as a cheeseburger minus cheese. When most people are looking for specialty burgers, it's easier/more compact to have a single "original" burger listed. They could easily put hamburger on the menu and have people request the cheese on it.
Didn't it used to be that everything (well, at least the single/double/triple, etc) was listed plain and you had to add cheese? Or is that a Wendy's Canada thing? I'm sure they have looked at how many people order without cheese and have gone with the majority.
Cheeseburgers seem to be the norm these days, I've had to ask them for a cheeseburger without cheese which is completely idiotic (same at McD's). The advantage is that they have to make it up fresh right then. My mom didn't like onions and got her burger freshly made by asking for one without, too.
re: buttertart
"Freshly made" is a relative term these days when it comes to fast food. At McD in particular, the burgers are par-fried and microwaved anyway, so the best you'll get will be a burger that was more recently microwaved. Up until about 1995, you could do a special order (or "Grill" as they called it), and actually get a burger right off the grill. /end rant
re: Steve Green
This is why I blame McDonalds for everything that sucks in fast food burgers today. They became great at getting customers served in a minute or so, and others have followed. Burger King used to flame grill to order, and Wendy's had hot, fresh burgers, but now the American palate is dumbed down to faster is better at the expense of taste.
re: James Cristinian
Just as a note... the burgers at Wendy's are still grilled fresh to order.
re: Boston_Otter
I think they are assembled fresh to order, but, dating myself here, they are not the same fresh grilled to order they were twenty five years ago, hot and juicy as advertised back then.
re: James Cristinian
That is a key distinction -- assembled-to-order vs made-to-order. I found out the difference when I had a burger at Sonic a while back. They had said the burgers were made-to-order, but they were clearly just assembled with precooked patties. Gross.
I'm gonna go out on a limb here and guess that if you order "a hamburger", the person taking your order will say "do you want cheese?" to which you reply, "No thank you."
It really is that easy.
re: Boston_Otter
I'm a not very polite grumpy old man and would have said: " If I wanted a cheeseburger I would have asked for it". I don't suffer fools or foolish questions very well.
re: mucho gordo
Asking if you want cheese on a hamburger isn't a foolish question. Wendy's has been pretty straightforward about explaining that they've found that most people prefer cheese on their burger, so they've simply made it the default. It's extremely simple to ask for "no cheese", whether you're at McDonalds, Wendys, or Five Guys.
re: Boston_Otter
Except, a hamburger doesn't have cheese. Cheeseburgers have cheese. Well, assuming that yellow, gooey cheese-like product they pass off as cheese can be considered as cheese.
Along that line, it has always annoyed me when the clerk would ask "do you want cheese on that?". Hello - did I order a cheeseburger?
re: Clams047
Exactly! Most places still offer the basic 'hamburger' on their menu. Even after I tell the clerk exactly what I want, they still manage screw it up mainly because they don't speak english well enough.
re: Clams047
Ok...I am going to come to the defense of the people who work at these burger joints. I would bet anything that they are forced to ask these questions as part of the job and are threatened with such things as the district manager coming by or secret shoppers or whatever and punishment when they don't comply with the script. I worked at Starbucks in college and was threatened with this sort of thing...believe me, I felt obnoxious when I had to ask customers ridiculous questions that most of the time I already knew the answer to - "no" or "no thanks"
re: Fromageball
Yes, at my local Whataburger, it is always, "Do you want cheese on that, or would you like a fried pie?" I know they have a job to do, and are probably subjected to tons of abuse, so I am always polite, and respond no thank you to all questions. Maybe it's because I've worked retail so long, but I am always polite to those in service industries.
re: Boston_Otter
Boston Otter, "It's extremely easy to ask for "no cheese," true enough, but the problem is actually getting no cheese. Back when I ate fast food regularly, it was next to impossible to get a quarter pounder without cheese, despite asking for no cheese three different times every time I ordered it, about an 80 percent failure rate. Wendy's was better but still terrbile, making an unwanted cheeseburger about 40 percent of the time. The wife and I do a Whatabuger every couple of months no problem, now if they would use actual hot jalapenos, another topic.
re: James Cristinian
if you want it "your way," i'd ignore the advertising and go to a regular (i.e.NOT fast food) restaurant.
fast food restaurants, by their nature, must have what is essentially an assembly line in place.
assembly lines don't do well with custom orders.. . . .
(as well as avoiding fast food restaurants, also avoid gjelina and father's office)
re: westsidegal
All I ask for is no cheese. Burgrer King can do it, so can Whataburger, but what's wrong with McDonalds and Wendy's. It shouldn't be too difficult, but it is. It really doesn't matter, I don't eat their crap anymore, just an occasional Whataburger, not crap.
re: Boston_Otter
Speaking of Five Guys, are they made to order? One just opened near by, Hear the FF are quite good.
re: Mother of four
re: Mother of four
Only if you like well-done.
re: Mother of four
Yes, you can even watch them cooking the burgers right behind the cashier.
re: Mother of four
Five Guys does not allow their grillmen to make burgers in advance, In fact the secret shopper's report specificalkly asks if any patties have been put on the grill ahead of orders to be geld ready to assemble when ordered.
Could it just be a way to jack up the price of a hamburger, i.e. did they lower the price of your cheeseburger with no cheese? Otherwise, I think most fast food places have a price ($x) for hamburgers and then a price ($x + 10 - 25 cents) for cheeseburgers. But now they get to charge you a cheeseburger price for a hamburger... Just a thought.
re: FattyDumplin
Exactly - alienate a few customers who don't appreciate being ripped off, but increase the average check size for the masses. I wonder what they would do if one asked for the cheese to be served on the side (after all, they are charging for the cheese whether it's ordered or not).
re: Clams047
I can;y answer for Wendy's, but our local Subway refuses to give the cheese on the side. My daughter doesn't eat cheese, and if we go to Subway, I'd like her cheese for my sandwich. hey won't put it on my sandwich instead and won't put it on the side either.
re: bagelman01
That isn't universal. All the Subways near me put my lactose intolerant child's cheese on another of our subs, no questions asked and without problem.
re: CanadaGirl
Different franchise owners, different rules for their employees.
This is the hidden price increase. You now have to pay the cheeseburger price to get a hamburger. More and more places are selling loaded items only and you have to tell them what to omit.
You will lose your reference price for hamburgers, and if they raised the cheeseburger price when switching over, you would not have noticed it because you normally don't order cheeseburgers.
re: pdxgastro
I had a similar experience at Arby's several years ago. They had $0.99 Cheddar Melts. I don't like them and at the time they didn't have a value menu. I had to order $0.99 Cheddar Melts without cheese in order to avoid paying the $2 or $3 for a regular sandwich.
This doesn't strike me as a big deal, just an inevitable step in the evolution of burger expectations and options. Like it or not, cheese has become so ubiquitous that it is now regarded as a standard topping on a burger. If you don't want cheese, you have to ask them to hold it just as you would for the lettuce, pickles, tomato, ketchup, etc. And just like when you hold other standard toppings, passing on the cheese doesn't entitles you to a reduction in the item's price.
re: Arthur
Like it or not, cheese has become so ubiquitous that it is now regarded as a standard topping on a burger.
If the term "hamburger" = burger with cheese
Then what does the term "cheeseburger" = ?
re: ipsedixit
The term "cheeseburger" may be headed for the scrap heap.
I'm sure a great deal of research and computer processing went into their decision to make cheeseburgers the default. Those extra seconds of asking "Would you like cheese with that?" add up when you're talking about volume in billions. I have less problem with their calling a cheeseburger a "burger" than I do with their calling their burgers "burgers" to start with, but that's another issue. While a stopwatch would disqualify Whataburger from being called "fast" food, I still think they are the best, unbelievable really, for a chain, but they sell their fantastic burgers on the shoddiest wimpy buns possible. The thing is often flat and mangled by the time you unwrapped it. This sounds extreme, but I take'em home and surgically transplant the Whataburger insides to a kaiser roll of my own. Heavenly.
re: gregsamsa
Have you let them know? Here's a way you could: You should shoot a YouTube right in the restaurant (Whataburger's a sit-down, right?). Take apart the hamburger showing how bad the bread is. Then whip out your kaiser roll and transfer it. Then email a link to their HQ. That might make them sit up and take notice.
re: pdxgastro
You know, that is a damn good idea.
Thank you!
re: gregsamsa
Of course you will have to post it here too! :o)
I feel the same way. I was at a Sonic tonight and they are doing the same thing. They only had a cheeseburger combo and you don't have to take the cheese, but you still pay for it.
Reminds me of a time I went into McD's and ordered "a cheeseburger with just pickles, nothing else." I got a hamburger with no cheese and pickles. When I complained, I got a cheeseburger with pickles, but I was told that my original burger had been correct. Later, at a different McD's, I again asked for a cheeseburger with pickles only, and was asked "so, no cheese then?" Yeah, and no hamburger patty too...
My experience with Wendy's is that it doesn't matter if you order a hamburger, or ask them to hold the cheese - they will give you cheese no matter what. I always have to double check my order before I drive off, but that doesn't happen much anymore, since I'm pretty much through with them.
Wendy's quality took a sharp nosedive after the death of Dave Thomas, and now the awful salty fries and thick weird buns have almost completely driven me away.
re: NonnieMuss
That always used to happen to me as well. Given the price increase and the quality nosedive, I've given up on Wendys. Fortunately, there's enough Roy Rogers, Five Guys, and mom & pops that it's not much of a loss. Given what I'd pay for a Wendys Triple, I can get a freshly made pljeskavica on fresh bread at the local Bosnian carryout.
re: minkgirl
Wendy's burgers were always my fast food burger of choice but since the "upgrade" I simply don't like them anymore. The burgers are too salty, the buns are too bready, and the pickles are just wrong. Let's not even start on the fries.
However, I still think they have the best fast food salad and since I'm actively trying to lose weight now, those make a nice change up and make me feel as if I'm cheating worse than I really am.
re: rockycat
+1, +1, +1. Marry me. Seriously it's like you're inside my head.
Wish we had more more mom and pop places near where I live. My hometown only has sonic, subway, papa john's and pizza hut for chains. There is a good mom pop place in the next town north, Burger 'Fixins'. I have given up on Sonic and Wendy's. I'm going to check Burger King and see if they still sell hamburgers. I believe Whataburger still serves hamburgers.
re: minkgirl
Wendys, McDonalds, Burger King, and Whataburger all sell hamburgers, yes.
No, all the Wendy's where I have sell only cheeseburgers and it's the same with Sonic. You have to order and cheeseburger and ask them to leave off the cheese. And you get to pay the cheeseburger price. Thank goodness, we still have a Whataburger.
Sorry, my reply should have been all the Wendy's where I "live" serve only cheeseburgers. If you want a burger, you have to order a cheeseburger and ask them to leave off the cheese. "Ridiculous"!!!
re: minkgirl
I'm going to be the devil's advocate and ask how is this different from asking for a hamburger and asking them to leave off the lettuce, tomatoes and/or onions?
You're still paying for THOSE even if they're left off.
Well, traditionally, cheese has been added to a hamburger for an extra cost. As far back as I can remember, nobody ever charged extra for pickles, lettuce, tomato or onion. So, it is different for cheese. These places have always charged more for a cheeseburger.
re: minkgirl
But did the prices of burgers (secretly) go up when they started added more toppings to the point where it's accepted that burgers cost 30-60 cents more because they've added tomatoes etc?
I don't know. I just know I am done with Wendy's cheeseburgers or hamburgers. There are too many other fast food places that serve better "hamburgers" for less money. Also, done with Sonic, if they are not going to serve "hamburgers". I have contacted both companies and Wendy's has not responded. Sonic has referred my email to a local Sonic which is ridiculous because the local Sonic had nothing to do with the decision.
re: minkgirl
Oh, well as to whether Wendy's burgers are as good know as they were a few short years ago (they most definitly are NOT) is an entirely different conversation!
re: Tripeler
That is probably true. I don't care for cheese food which is what they probably use. I really don't even like real cheese on a burger. I do like Cabot cheese that is made in Vermont if it is served cold with apples or crackers. They would never go to the expense of putting real cheese on a sandwich. I think I will try Wendy's chili and skip their cheeseburgers.
re: Tripeler
The dairy industry is also heavily subsidized, so it's cheaper to add cheese than increase the portion of the burger.
re: Tripeler
It has more to do with the addictive qualities of cheese.
re: Tripeler
I always thought the burger was there to mask the flavor of the cheese.
Who would've thunk it was just the opposite!
re: Tripeler
I'm sure that you are correct about masking the flavor of the meat. I can make a hamburger that is 100% better than any hamburger that can be bought in any fast food restaurant. We call it a Wimpy's burger and if you want cheese, you must ask for it. Wimpy as in Popeye.
re: causeimhungry
What a ripoff. They don't even use real cheese.
re: minkgirl
Yes, they do.
re: Boston_Otter
Yep - it's real pasteurized processed cheese product.
re: Clams047
McDonalds uses "American cheese" which is the equivalent of processed cheese. Not to be confused with "processed cheese FOOD" which is a different product.
"Pasteurized process cheese," which is made from one or more cheeses (excluding certain cheeses such as cream cheese and cottage cheese but including American cheese), and which may contain one or more specified "optional ingredients" (includes both dairy and nondairy items). Moisture and fat content percentage requirements vary according to standards for constituent cheeses, but in most cases fat content must be >47%.
"Pasteurized process cheese food," which is made from not less than 51% by final weight of one or more "optional cheese ingredients" (similar to the cheeses available for Pasteurized process cheese) mixed with one or more "optional dairy ingredients" (milk, whey, etc.), and which may contain one or more specified "optional ingredients" (nondairy). Moisture must be <44%, and fat content >23%.
re: causeimhungry
That is called a cheeseburger.
re: jpc8015
Depends on how you kill the burger and cut the cheese.
re: monkeyrotica
Cheese on a burger is never kosher.
Yep! Dave is rolling in his grave! Went to Wendy's a few minutes ago and ordered a Wendy's burger after searching the menu for several minutes, Got home and was ready to dig in to the delicous burger, CHEESE!!!!! Called them to ask what went on a Wendy's burger. Yes, they do add cheese and you have to tell them no cheese. Obviously ordering a hamburger is not possible anymore. To get a hamburger, you must order a hamburger .with no cheese! GRRRRRR!!
re: DelishDi
Only a matter of time before they put bacon, honey mustard chipotle garlic aoli, and gold leaf on their burgers, and charge you to take it off.

Casey Puckett: On the fast-track to Olympic skier cross
Puckett, Jake Fiala, Enak Gavaggio, pack, WX '07.
Before Casey Puckett traveled to Italy for the first World Cup ski cross races of this Olympic (and Olympic qualifying) season, he basically said he wasn't too worried about the qualifying side of things. Puckett, after all, has been to four Olympics already.
"In terms of qualifying, to me, that's not necessarily the worry right now. For me, it's whether I win or not; whether I get a medal this time," he said.
Then Puckett went to Italy and in the first World Cup pegged a third place finish, Dec. 21 a result that registers in as qualifying criteria No. 1 in the complex Olympic qualifying matrix. So he's pretty much on track there, though there's five more World Cups/Olympic Qualifiers to go, beginning Jan. 5 in Austria.
ESPN Freeskiing caught up with the confident Mr. Puckett, 37, hailing from Aspen, to discuss his prospective fifth Olympics, ski cross fashion controversies, on-course rough housing and how to win.

Redmond company makes tsunami, quake sensors for Japan
Instruments from the Redmond firm Paroscientific are the backbone of Japan's seafloor-monitoring programs, but aren't widely used in the Northwest.
Seattle Times science reporter
About this project
Sandi Doughton's reporting in Japan was underwritten by a fellowship from the Japan Foreign Press Center.
More from this project
Coastal quake risk: Japan on watch, Northwest 'essentially blind'
The Cascadia Subduction Zone is as dangerous as offshore faults in Japan, but there's a lack of earthquake-monitoring instruments on the ocean floor in the Pacific Northwest.
Read the story →
The world's biggest scientific drilling ship has the audacious goal of boring into the heart of an offshore earthquake fault much like one that threatens the Northwest.
Read the story →
In the U.S., "prediction" has been a bad word among earthquake scientists. But recent quakes have reopened the debate — including about the value of iffy forecasts.
Read the story →
The irony isn't lost on Jerry Paros.
His Redmond-based company has produced almost 1,000 sensors for monitoring the seafloor off Japan, but only a handful of the instruments are keeping watch on the submarine fault in his own backyard.
"It's outrageous that we should not be better prepared," said Paros, who started the business in his home in 1972. Today, Paroscientificis considered the premier source in the world for precision pressure gauges.
The deep-sea submersible Alvin tracks its depth with Paroscientific sensors. The National Weather Service relies on the company's barometers. Oil companies use Paroscientific instruments to level offshore-drilling platforms and estimate the volume of petroleum reservoirs.
Tsunami and earthquake monitoring account for less than 1 percent of the company's $20 million in annual sales — but early warning has become a passion for Paros.
He endowed a University of Washington professorship — held by oceanographer John Delaney — and recently donated $1 million in seed money to lay the groundwork for a Cascadia sensor-network initiative.
Paros envisions a system like those off Japan, with a cable backbone running from Vancouver Island to Cape Mendocino in California, and lateral arms covering much of the Cascadia Subduction Zone.
There's already an array of buoys stationed offshore that uses Paroscientific pressure sensors to detect tsunamis. That system is great at warning of waves from distant earthquakes. But the buoys won't help much in the case of a Cascadia megaquake, which will send surges crashing into some coastal communities in 20 minutes or less.
"The last one was in 1700, so we're getting close to a repeat," Paros said.
He's working to improve the precision of his instruments along with their ability to detect subtle deformation of the seafloor over long periods of time — and not with profit in mind.
"There's not much business incentive to develop these types of sensors," he said. "But it's interesting, and it's clear that the scientists need better tools."
Paros and his team went through more than 100 designs before they came up with a sensor that could withstand the intense pressure on the seafloor. He keeps several of the flops on display in a room he calls the "museum of mistakes and occasional good ideas."
"I'm going to have to build an extension for the mistakes," Paros joked.
But his latest generation of sensors clearly falls into the "good ideas" category. They're so sensitive they can detect a change in the water column of a millimeter or less.
Paros just hopes they can be put to work in the Northwest before the subduction zone rips again.
"Unfortunately," he said, "our government tends to fund things after the fact."

China launches two satellites within 24 hours
Posted: Fri, Nov 21 6:40 AM ET (1140 GMT)
Two Chinese launches placed into orbit Earth observation and disaster monitoring satellites in less than 24 hours on Thursday and Friday. A Long March 2D rocket lifted off from the Jiquan Satellite Launch Center in China at 2:12 am EST (0712 GMT, 3:12 pm Beijing time) Thursday and placed the Yaogan-24 satellite into orbit. The satellite, launched less than a week after Yaogan-23, is reported to be used for civil remote sensing and scientific experiments, but is widely perceived in the West to be a military reconnaissance satellite. At 1:37 am EST (0637 GMT, 2:37 pm Beijing time) Friday, a Kuaizhou rocket placed the Kuaizhou-2 satellite into orbit. The satellite is said by Chinese media to provide information on natural disasters. The Kuaizhou rocket is a small solid-fuel vehicle based on a ballistic missile.

Pirates 9, Reds 5
CINCINNATI (AP)—Now that they've hit town, the Pittsburgh Pirates have fixed the problems that were dragging them down.
What's wrong with the Cincinnati Reds? Don't even get started.
Xavier Nady hit a three-run homer Saturday night during another disastrous first inning by right-hander Bronson Arroyo, leading the Pirates to a 9-5 victory.
The Pirates scored four runs in their best first inning of the season, one day after they rallied to victory with their biggest splurge in three years. Pittsburgh scored eight runs in the 10th inning for a 10-4 victory in the series opener.
"We've done a much better job," manager Jim Tracy said. "We were 7-for-15 with runners in scoring position, and we drove in eight runs in the 4-5-6 spots. That's pretty intriguing to see. That's very encouraging to see."
Jason Bay had three hits and drove in three runs for the Pirates, who arrived in Cincinnati with a five-game losing streak but have done an about-face against the major leagues' worst team. The Reds have lost a season-high five in a row and 19 of 24 overall.
And, they have no idea what to make of Arroyo.
"I don't know," catcher David Ross said. "I wish I had the answers. He 's not getting the pitches he wants over for strikes. He's getting behind in the count, and when he does get ahead, he's not putting guys away. It's one of those things where you turn around and you don't really know what happened."
For the second start in a row, Arroyo (2-5) let the opposition bat around in a four-run first inning. In the homestand opener on Monday, the right-hander threw 49 pitches and faced 10 batters in Washington's four-run first.
It was similar on Saturday. The Pirates sent nine batters to the plate, scored four runs and forced Arroyo to throw 33 pitches. Bay doubled home a run, and Nady followed with his second homer in two days.
"Physically, I feel pretty good," Arroyo said. "I've felt pretty average the last two starts. The ball just doesn't feel crisp coming out of my hand. It's just one of those things where I'm going through a spell, and with the kind of season we've had, it just gets magnified."
Left-hander John Grabow (1-1) got the victory in relief of Shawn Chacon, who lasted 3 2-3 innings in his first start of the season. Chacon was moved from the bullpen to replace struggling Tony Armas in the rotation.
"I was real excited before the game," said Chacon, who left after throwing 80 pitches. "The Adrenalin got to me."
Pittsburgh came into the series struggling to get hits with the bases loaded, but have pawned that problem off on Cincinnati. The Reds loaded the bases in the third, fourth and fifth innings, but managed only a pair of runs on walks.
Scott Hatteberg hit a solo homer, the 100th of his career, in the eighth off Matt Capps. Edwin Encarnacion and Alex Gonzalez hit back-to-back solo homers off Brian Rogers in the ninth. Salomon Torres got the final three outs.
The Reds are 1-5 on a homestand against Washington and Pittsburgh, two other downtrodden teams. The poor showing has brought catcalls for the bullpen and calls for manager Jerry Narron's firing.
Narron signed autographs before the first pitch, then watched Arroyo—who led the NL in innings last season—implode again. Pittsburgh's four-run first was its best opening inning since it scored four at Wrigley Field last Sept. 4 in a 5-4 win over the Cubs.
Arroyo lasted a career-low two innings on Monday against Washington. He went four innings on Saturday, giving up seven hits and six runs along with four walks. Arroyo failed to strike out a batter for the first time since 2005.
Adam LaRoche added a solo homer for Pittsburgh in the ninth.
Pirates C Ryan Doumit was out of the lineup, a day after he was hit in the head by Ryan Freel's bat at the end of a swing. "I feel good, though," he said. "All is clear. All is well." Manager Jim Tracy isn't sure how long he will be out. … LHP Tom Gorzelanny played catch in the outfield before the game and reported no problems. Gorzelanny bruised his left thumb on a comebacker Thursday night, but he's expected to make his scheduled start on Tuesday against San Diego. … Reds OF Josh Hamilton expects to head to Triple-A Louisville to start playing on Monday. Hamilton went on the 15-day DL with an inflamed digestive tract. He will play in the minors until he's eligible to return on June 3.

This lamp is amazingly beautiful. For those looking for something with sort of a non-theme lamp, yet with some color, this lamp is it!! I keep it on 24 hours a day (with some C-7 GE cool lights off of a 25 count Xmas string-after days of being 'on', still cool bulbs). Dulls it down, but, still is fantastic looking. And, those bulbs work great in the 3 butterflys I bought also. The individual lamps =did= get hot with the 40 watt recommeded bulbs, and, of course, I have them, and, if wanted more of a splash, for party or entertaining, could put them back in. What else to say, it's just a fantastic lighting fixture. For the price, it's unbeatable.
Upon the strength of the reviews provided, I ordered two of these umbrella-style lamps. I am thrilled with the obvious quality construction, the larger-than-expected, sturdy lamp shades, and the bright, colorful light out-put. The fact that these lamps are numbered and certified as two from a limited edition of 5,000 certainly adds to my viewing pleasure
The lamp is beautiful. Has a solid heavy base I put it on top of our entertainment center in our family room as a focal point since it is very beautiful. When turned on it really brightens the room with vibrant color. One bonus: there was a certificate with signature in the box staing that it was a numbered limited edition lamp. Well worth the price. A true classic piece that will enliven any room.
This is my first purchase with overstock. I was truly amazed how the craftsman ship was on the light itself. I use this light on my snack bar in the kitchen. It adds a little bit of color, and lighting within the area for eating or serving food, or snacks. I am very pleased on this purchase, and who would know that I would purchase more tifffany lighting throughout this past year. Thanks overstock.........
This is my first purchase of the Tiffany style lamps. The colors really soften up my living room. I love the low light effect and it makes a relaxing atmosphere. The quality is very high. I would definitely recommend this lamp to someone who is looking to add beauty to a room.
I also purchased two of these beautiful lamps based on the strength of the reviews. The appearance, quality and value of this lamp is excellent. I have only one caution. Perhaps because of the size of each of the three individual lamp shades, they do become VERY hot to the touch after the lamp is on for awhile.
This Coral-Blue Three shade table lamp is a eye-catching, stunning, beautiful, and sturdy tiffany lamp at a great price. We have bought two and will purchase three more.

Write a Super Short Story to win an iPod!
c.1300, "rough, shaggy, careworn" (originally of animals), from Old Norse rogg "shaggy tuft" (see rug). "The precise relationship to ragged is not quite clear, but the stem is no doubt ultimately the same" [OED]. Meaning "vigorous, strong, robust" is American English, by 1848.
We were challenged with a peace-time choice between the American system of rugged individualism and a European philosophy of diametrically opposed doctrines -- doctrines of paternalism and state socialism. [Herbert Hoover, speech in New York, Oct. 22, 1928]Hoover said the phrase was not his own, and it is attested from 1897, though not in a patriotic context. Related: Ruggedly; ruggedness.

Lila and Boyd won't have a problem with that.
I get 70%+ I do all of them except the Ice cream & the Lattes. Not into them. LOL
Not into Starbucks and lattes. Regular Folgers for this girl!
Why does Drew have a white waitress' apron on?
How is it possible not be into ice cream?
Watch the finger, kid. Dangerous
Ditto to Starbucks for me. I think Drew's wearing a white skirt.
People have weird food tastes, Nozzi. I'm one of those freaks of nature who absolutely can't stand the taste or even smell of chocolate. Somehow I've learned to live with my handicap. :)
I'm that way with mustard so I can empathize.
withering glares for oblivious geezers slowly counting their change to pay for one item as the line lengthens behind them
1. I only get tall lattes and not everyday. 2. I never give the finger to rude drivers, even ones that cut me off. You never know which one's gonna take it too personally. 3. All express lanes should be required by law to be cash only. 4. I'm trying to go the opposite way with the ice cream, not an easy thing to do. 5. Also trying to go the opposite way with this one too, also not easy.
I have to eat a pint of 14% butterfat ice cream daily, eat real butter not margarine, drink only half and half in my coffee. Avoid anything soy, even stuff cooked in soybean or canola oil. Two reasons: I have critically low cholesterol, and an allergy to soy beans and soy bean by-products.

AFRICA/CENTRAL AFRICA - The Catholic Church at the center of dialogue among the faiths to ease the tension
Bangui (Agenzia Fides) - "We have started dialogue between Muslims, Catholics and Protestants to calm the situation down, otherwise this Country is likely to explode," says to Fides Agency His Exc. Mgr. Juan José Aguirre Munos, Bishop of Bangassou, which is situated in Bangui for a meeting of the Episcopal Conference of the Central African Republic.
"We are offering an opportunity for dialogue so that the life of the population can be brought back to normal. Since Muslims have been accused of being Seleka's complicit we are trying to avoid further violence and revenge that would complicate an already very confusing situation."
"Many NGOs have asked the Catholic Church to coordinate these efforts of dialogue in different parts of Central Africa and we are working in this direction," said Msg. Aguirre Muños.
Meanwhile, the Central African Republic has to face new attacks by the Lord's Resistance Army (LRA), a Ugandan guerrilla group that has placed some of its bases in the east of the Country. Sixteen people, including four members of the LRA died in the attack against two villages near Bria. The new Central African President and leader of Seleka, Michel Djotodia, announced the deployment of troops in the east to hunt down the Ugandan rebels.
"I would not want these statements to be an excuse to enter the Seleka areas in the east that, good or bad, are still protected by the presence of Ugandan and American troops," said Mgr. Aguirre Munos. The Ugandan soldiers are in the south-east of the Central African Republic, on behalf of the African Union, to hunt down the LRA. Seleka, stating that it wants to attack the LRA, wants to prove that the presence of Ugandan troops is no longer needed and therefore have a free hand in that area."
"The LRA has been here for six years, it is not easy to defeat" the Bishop concluded. (L.M.) (Agenzia Fides 18/06/2013)

Alexander Statement on Unemployment Benefits Vote
Bill "does not contain a single proposal to help grow the economy or encourage hiring"
Monday, April 07, 2014Liz Wolgemuth 202-228-4729
WASHINGTON, April 7 – U.S. Senator Lamar Alexander (R-Tenn.) today released the following statement on his vote against Democratic legislation that would extend unemployment benefits without considering Republican proposals to help unemployed Americans:
"This bill does not contain a single proposal to help grow the economy or encourage hiring. Republicans have many good ideas for helping the 10.5 million unemployed Americans find a job, but the Democratic leader has cut off amendments and debate on all of them."
He added: "We need to jumpstart our slow economy by liberating the free enterprise system, replacing long-term unemployment insurance with job training, and using existing federal education dollars to give low-income families the chance to choose a better school."
Alexander pointed to the Workforce Investment Act of 2013, bipartisan legislation that would provide approximately $145 million for job training in Tennessee, and was passed by the Senate Health, Education, Labor and Pensions Committee, of which Alexander is the lead Republican. The U.S. House of Representatives passed a more streamlined version of the Senate legislation earlier this year that would consolidate 35 federal programs and create a single Workforce Investment Fund.
He introduced the Scholarships for Kids Act, which would create $2,100 scholarships out of existing federal education dollars to follow 11 million low-income children to schools they attend.

The 12th annual "Tastes of the Valley," a wine and cheese affair presented by the CSU Stanislaus Agricultural Studies Department and Friends of the Fair Foundation will be this Thursday, Oct 2, from 6 to 9 p.m., at the Stanislaus County Fairgrounds.
A single vehicle accident into a sideyard fence resulted in the arrest of the driver for DUI, but also revealed a backyard marijuana grow on Eucalyptus Avenue.
The City of Oakdale named Touchdown Realty as the commercial Realtor that would list for sale or lease the Hershey Building at 120 S. Sierra Ave., Oakdale. City Manager Bryan Whitemyer announced the selection at the Monday, Sept. 15 council meeting.

Ernest John Christopher Polge CBE, FRS (16 August 1926– 17 August 2006) was an English biologist, most noted for his work in cryopreservation.[2][3]
The son of a Buckinghamshire farmer, he was educated at Bootham School[4] in York, before going to the University of Reading where he studied Agriculture. He worked briefly as an agricultural economist before joining the Division of Experimental Biology at the National Institute for Medical Research at Mill Hill, London, and later the Animal Research Station at Cambridge, where he worked under Sir John Hammond[5]
It was while a doctoral student that he solved the long-standing problem of how to preserve living cells and tissues at very low temperatures. In 1950, Polge produced the first chicks from eggs fertilised with frozen sperm,[6] the first vertebrates to be produced in this way. Two years later, Polge reported high pregnancy rates in cattle using sperm that had been frozen for periods in excess of a year, work which had far-reaching consequences for the future of artificial insemination and genetic improvement in livestock.
After the Animal Research Station closed in 1986, Polge co-founded Animal Biotechnology Cambridge Ltd., where he was also Scientific Director, to translate basic and applied research into commercial agricultural processes and products.[2] He was also a Fellow of Wolfson College from 1984 to 1993 (Emeritus Fellow after)
Polge was elected to the Royal Society in 1983, won the 1988 Wolf Foundation Prize in Agriculture, and was made a Commander of the Order of the British Empire in 1992. He was elected to the US National Academy of Sciences as a foreign associate in 1997.
