Bacardi introduces the Facundo Rum Collection
The Facundo Rum Collection is a collection of four aged sipping rums from Bacardi. The Facundo Rum Collection is a tribute to Bacardi founder Don Facundo Bacardi Masso.
The Facundo Rum Collection is a series of aged rums. Each of the four members of the Facundo Rum Collection offers its own distinct flavor and style and includes:
Neo - One of the oldest lightest rums available on the market today, NEO is a blend of medium-to heavy-bodied rums. Once the aging process is complete, the rums are filtered over activated carbon to remove any color.
Age: 1 – 8 years of age.
Price: $45
Eximo - Features a blend of medium-to heavy-bodied rums aged in white oak barrels for more than a decade. Eximo is the only of the four rums that is blended before aging – a process which relies on the Master Blender to tailor the flavor and aroma 10 years in advance.
Age: 10 – 12 years of age.
Price: $60
Exquisito - A medium-to heavy-bodied rum crafted aged in oak barrels. Some of these rums have been individually filtered over activated carbon before aging. After the aging process, the rums are blended, transferred and stored in sherry casks to rest for a minimum of 1 month. Exquisito combines the fruitier notes of its 7 year-old rums with the smokier and spicier notes of its 23 year-old rums.
Age: 7 – 23 years of age.
Price: $90
Paraiso – This rum features a blend of rums from the private Bacardi Family Reserves, individually filtered over activated carbon before aging. After aging, Paraiso rums are married in French casks for a minimum of 1 month.
Age: Up to 23 years of age in white oak barrels (highest concentration of the oldest and finest rums of the Collection).
Price: $250

Selvarey Rum introduces Selvarey White and Selvarey Cacao
Hailing from the jungles of Panama, Selvarey Rum is based in Los Angeles and co-founded by brothers Marc and Seth Gold, and Robert Herzig.
Selvarey's rums are distilled in the province of Herrera in copper column stills that date back to 1922. Master Blender Francisco "Don Pancho" Fernandez, a 35-year veteran of Havana Club rums, the former Cuban Minister of Rum, and a resident of Panama, collaborated with Selvarey to create the recipes for both spirits, and is involved throughout the production process, from planting and harvesting the sugar cane to aging and bottling the rum.
The name, which translates loosely from Spanish to "king of the jungle" (Selva-Rey), is a nod to Fernandez carving his distillery and sugar cane fields out of the Panamanian wilderness.
Selvarey White (750ml / 40% ABV / $25.00) – Selvarey White, a blend of three- and five- year old rums, is aged in American Oak and carbon-filtered to remove most of the color without losing the flavors imbued during the aging process.
Selvarey Cacao (750ml / 35% ABV / $30.00) – In Selvarey Cacao, Fernandez selects a five-year-old rum whose character is brought out by the infusion of locally sourced chocolate.
Selvarey Rum is distributed through Southern Wine & Spirits in California.

Captain Morgan 1671 Commemorative Blend Spiced Rum
This limited-time offering was inspired by Captain Henry Morgan's victorious raid on the Spanish in 1671, where he lost his beloved flagship, The Satisfaction.
Made with St. Croix rum and finished through Spanish Oak, the blend contains elements derived from the type of barrels that were believed to have been on board The Satisfaction.
At 70 proof (35% ABV), Captain Morgan 1671 Commemorative Blend is packaged in a unique jug designed in a nod to the 17th century and will be available nationally beginning in May 2014 for a suggested retail price of $19.99 (750 mL bottle).
The Bacardi Legacacy Global Cocktail Competition is a bit different from other global cocktail competitions in that every bartender presents a single drink to the judges, rather than having multiple drink challenges and mystery ingredient competitions and speed rounds.
The reason for this is that the goal of the competition is for the bartender to create a future classic cocktail, like the Daiquiri, that can and hopefully will be made around the globe for many years to come. (And of course, sell lots of Bacardi in the process.)
While attendees at the 2014 competition in Moscow, Russia last week were only witness to the 27 bartenders from around the world presenting their drink to the judges, there were months work of effort that went into those few minutes: Bartenders were required to develop their drink using ingredients available in nearly every country and promote the cocktail through different means to prove its viability.
Some used social media, others served the drink to thousands on guest bartending shifts in different bars, and the American competitor Naomi Levy from Boston's Eastern Standard used the drink as a means of raising $13,000 for charity.
The promotion of the cocktail was taken into consideration for the overall scoring, though I'm not sure what the exact breakdown is.
The Finals
In Moscow 27 bartenders from as many countries competed in the semi-finals, and 8 went through to the finals, which were held in a palace built for Catherine the Great (no big deal).
The last time I attended Bacardi Legacy it was three years ago in Barcelona, and they also did a great job of presenting the finals in a huge and unforgettable venue. They put on a great show.
Nearly all the eight finalists were nervous as heck on stage and some lost the plot a little bit along the way. I can't say that the best presenter took home the prize, but I didn't get to taste the cocktails nor was aware of the cumulative score until that point. The winner, however, was the clear leader predicted by the chatter of spectators in the room.
The winner of the Bacardi Legacy Global Cocktail Competition was Tom Walker of The American Bar at The Savoy Hotel in London. His drink contains Bacardi, lime juice, cucumber, mint, absinthe, and soda water, like a Daiquiri-Mojito mashup with a spritz of absinthe.
I've had the drink before, and there's no denying it is delicious and refreshing, easy to make, and can have massive appeal. Well, done, Tom.

Denizen Merchant's Reserve Rum
Citizen Spirits LLC, the producers of Denizen Aged White Rum, a 3-year-old blend from Trinidad and Jamaica, announce the launch of their first amber expression named Denizen Merchant's Reserve.
Denizen Merchant's Reserve is an amber colored molasses rum; a blend of 8-year-old plummer style Jamaican pot still rum and a component of Rhum Grande Arome from the French island of Martinique.
It will be available in San Francisco and New York City early April with a suggested retail price of $29.99 per 750ml bottle.
Brugal Rum's Papá Andrés
Papá Andrés is a blend of rums that the Maestros Roneros make each year, different from the last. Each blend is made from three different casks: first-filled Spanish Sherry Oak Casks, Ex-Pedro Ximenez Sherry Oak Casks and First Rum filled White American Oak.
Only 36 casks of our total 250,000 cask inventory are selected to make this rum each year and 500 bottles per year are produced.
MSRP of $1,200.
Brugal Rum is the only 100% Dominican rum on the market. From the harvesting of local sugar cane to the final aging process, all elements of craftsmanship take place in and use the ingredients from the Dominican Republic. This is the way Brugal premium rums have been made since the company's founding in 1888 by Don Andres Brugal.

CRANSTON — Two of the four heavyweight programs in Division I squared off on Thursday night. Cumberland and Cranston West threw haymakers at each other all night with the defending state champion Clippers getting off the deck to win a 36-28 slugfest.
Cumberland scored five pins, worth six points each in the team scoring, to a pair of deck jobs for the Falcons. Those pins, especially the ones scored by Brandon Ferreri and Tom Lacroix after Cranston West had taken a 25-21 lead after 160 pounds, proved the difference in this topsy-turvy match.
WOONSOCKET — Woonsocket High coach George Coderre likes the way his team has been playing lately with the postseason only a month away. The Villa Novans' 57-33 rout of Lincoln High on Thursday night was the latest example.
The win by the Novans improves their record to 7-4 in Division I. It also comes just two days after Coderre's crew lost a tight 52-51 decision to second-place Bay View Academy, a Bengal squad that demolished Woonsocket, 49-24, in its league opener back on Dec. 9.

How Does One Make Killer Popovers?
- David Kahn Aug 10, 2009 10:54 AM
I had dinner at BLT Steak in Los Angeles this weekend, and everything was very good, but by far the best part of the meal (I thought) were the absolutely amazing, monster popovers served at the beginning of the meal in lieu of bread. For those who haven't had the pleasure, these things are splendid, about the size of a football, and laced with Gruyere cheese. Really spectacular. (Picture, which, while good, still doesn't really do them justice, here: http://foodwhores.wordpress.com/2008/...)
Anyway, I've tried to make popovers once or twice, and never had much success. I was hoping the hounds on this board might help me improve my game. Do you have a great recipe for popovers? Are there tricks to making them well? Do I need a special popover pan or other tools to get fantastic results? Any and all suggestions will be gratefully explored. TIA guys.
Blt Steak
8720 West Sunset Blvd., West Hollywood, CA 90069
Some tips for popovers that I've adhered to in the past with good results:
- Use high protein flour, e.g. bread flour (not all purpose)
- Once you have the batter incorporated and mixed, let it sit at room temperature for 70 to 90 minutes
- Add a bit of baking powder to your batter
According to Cooks' Illustrated, though it seems counter-intuitive, popovers puff to the same size regardless of pan. Not sure I buy that, but I have successfully used muffin tins, ramekins, and coffee cups. Some recipes want them going into a cold oven, others into a preheated pan in a very hot oven, so obviously there are lots of roads to the same destination.
LT was on Martha making these once, and I wrote it down:
BLT Gruyere Popovers:
Preheat muffin tin or popover pan at 350.
Sift 4c flour with 1 tbsp+2tsp coarse salt. Heat 4c milk until it bubbles slightly at the edges. Whisk 8 eggs in an electric mixer, slowly add the milk and then the flour. Remove hot pan from oven and spray with Pam. Fill the cups to the top and mound with 10 oz. grated Gruyere. Bake 15 min, rotate pan, and bake another 35 min. Makes 12.
These can be cooled on a rack and kept at room temp up to 2 hrs, then reheated briefly at 450.
re: greygarious
Grey's recipe sounds great......I always work with a pre-heated muffin pan in a hot oven. A well seasoned pan is a must, and even then spray it down well. Convection works great as well. Definetly rotate the pan. Always fill the cups up all the way. Make sure your batter is completely smooth and room temp before cooking. Forget cooling....eat immediately while their interior still has the correct texture.
re: greygarious
that's so funny - when i saw the title of the post, my initial response was going to be "use the recipe from BLT" :)
re: greygarious
i know this seems strange, but the size and shape of the pan DOES affect the puff factor. they obviously work best in a popover pan, but you CAN do it in muffin tins. just be sure to fill only to just below the lip.... honestly, i'm not exactly sure of the exact science on this, so i won't make something up. i just know i've tried in just about every container conceivable --- btw - not so great in mini bundt tins!!
I too thought of that Martha episode as soon as I read the original post. I don't make popovers but make pretty good yorkshire puddings which are the same thing minus the butter. My discoveries include: lots of eggs (like Greygarious's recipe) make for a better poof. I've read if you don't have popover pans to use muffin pans but leave every other one empty so the heat can really circulate. Don't open the oven once you put them in! NO PEEKING!
My mother swore by screeching hot muffin pans (the fat preheated w the pan), for yorkshires which works great . . . but I can't imagine how this would work with butter for popovers.
re: cinnamon girl
OMG Yorkshire Pud is the best! You need the melted beef fat from the roast you're making. Pour it into your popover/muffin pan. And heat it good and hot in the oven. Then you pour in your batter. It hisses and then the magic happens.
David Kahn: the BLT popover converted me too! I went out, bought a pan and everything! His recipe is great! Oddly though, I have had better luck with fresh batter on an actual pop-over pan, that has been thoroughly pre-heated, and sprayed, and buttered. Enjoy!
Hello all you wonderful popover fans! My name is Jessica and I am the pastry chef here at BLT Steak.... Since there is clearly a bit of confusion on how to get your homemade popovers to rock like ours here at the restaurant, I figured I'd pass along a few tips.
First: the actual ingredients listed on the the little recipe card that we give out with our popovers is correct
Second: all you need to do is make slight adjustments on the prep part
4 cups milk, heat to very hot, but NOT boiling
8 eggs, cold
4 cups, all-purpose flour (we recommend Medallion brand, as that is what we use)
1 1/2 heaping Tbsp kosher salt
2 1/4 cups gruyere cheese, finely grated (or swiss emmentaler)
1 -- pre heat your oven to 350 degrees, with the popover pan in it. you want the pan nice and hot!
2 -- heat milk on stove top until very hot, but NOT boiling
3 -- measure and combine all purpose flour and salt. set aside
4 -- in a stand mixer (or electric hand mixer), whip eggs until frothy (at least 3-4 minutes) on medium-high speed
5 -- reduce speed and slowly add about 2/3 of your hot milk to your eggs
6 -- a large scoop at a time, add all of your flour and salt
7 -- add remaining milk, and mix until smooth
8 -- strain through a wire mesh strain, cover, and set aside. you can bake them about 15-20 minutes later, BUT i personally highly recommend allowing the batter to rest for about 45-60 mins
9 -- remove hot pans from oven, spray liberally with non-stick pan spray, and pour batter all the way to the top, almost overflowing. sprinkle the top liberally with the grated cheese
10 -- bake in oven for 25 minutes, rotate, and bake another 25 minutes (depending upon your oven, you may need another 5 minutes). remove from pans immediately and ENJOY!!!
wishing you all happy popover adventures and i can't wait to see you all in the restaurant soon!
chef jessica
re: chefjess
Thank you Jessica! Very kind of you to share.
(And, seriously, I love this board!)
re: David Kahn
No kidding! I just inherited a popover pan from a favorite uncle. Clearly I can't make these often [so much milk and butter] but for a special occasion, oh yea. I am there. Thank you so much chef jessica.
re: chefjess
How many popovers does that recipe make?
re: CindyJ
Judging by the quantity of milk and flour in the recipe, it probably makes 12 popovers. The Cook's Country recipe below uses half the milk and flour and makes 6 popovers.
re: CindyJ
about 12-15 depending upon your pan
re: chefjess
Jessica, Thank you. I'm from the east coast, but this does sound like a killer recipe!
2 questions: (1) I've always thought/read that you should not fill to the top for popovers. By filling to the top and then topping with cheese, doesn;t that impact the rising?
ans (2) What kind of popover pan do you use or recommend? I've been using the Chicago Metallic nonstick, and disaster this year -- silver coating on the popovers!!!
re: DTodrin
I had a similar problem with the first Chicago Metallic pan I bought at Williams-Sonoma -- the non-stick coating started coming off. I thought it was because I put the pan in the dishwasher. I never saw any of the coating on any popovers. I brought it back to the store and they gave me a new one, which I've been using for a couple of years now with no problems. I hand-wash it, though.
re: CindyJ
Hi Cindy,
Note, I've also sent Chicago metallic a note -- I will post what they say. My pans are 3 years old, and I have always hand washed...
Has anyone used the nordic ware cast aluminum popover pans?
What about silicone?
re: DTodrin
The Nordicware Grand Popover Pan is wonderful. Check it out on amazon. It's got all 5 star reviews. I just bought it and have used it 3 times. So far, so good. It's very sturdy and high quality. I will always wash by hand too.
re: DTodrin
fill to the top, and allow it to almost spill over. actual HELPS it to puff better - and make sure the cheese isn't touching the pan. as it melts, it creates a web that inhibits puffing!
i like the popover pans that crate & barrel sells, but honestly it shouldn't matter. believe it or not, non-stick isn't the best. a good pan works best when it's well-seasoned and heavily sprayed. i like vegelene brand spray (flavor-less) and pam.
re: chefjess
Thank you for replying!
re: chefjess
Chef Jessica, THANK YOU! I made your recipe for Thanksgiving, and the popovers were the big success of the meal! They turned out absolutely PERFECTLY, and no one even wanted to put any butter on them, they were so flavorful. I will absolutely be making these again!
re: chefjess
Chef Jessica---THANK YOU!! I have been making these for a few years now, but until I read your post---had not strained the batter through a mesh strainer and had not let the batter rest for an hour. Noticable improvement. I made these for Thanksgiving dinner and turned out PERFECT! Many thanks!
re: apple342
i'm SO glad to see that many of you tried the hints here over the holidays to much success! you'd be surprised the number of people i give these tips to on a regular basis! SO sorry it took me so long to reply -- holidays are crazy times for us chefs!
cheers & happy baking, friends!
re: chefjess
Thank you Chef Jessica,
Our friends went to BLT in Hollywood and actually made these fantasic popovers just like yours. I didn't ask for the recipe since they went so I waited to go and then we went recently as well and I picked up your recipe and I will make them too. Thank you for taking the time to let us all know your secrets! I passed the recipe on to my family in Hawaii!
Thanks again
re: chefjess
jessica: i've been meaning to thank you. my daughter went to your restaurant last year and raved about the popovers. after you posted the recipe, she made them for our xmas eve dinner. they were absolutely delicious - even great left over! definitely in our food rotation.
re: justanotherpenguin
Isn't "leftover popovers" an oxymoron?
re: CindyJ
definition of oxymoron: "conjoining contradictory terms (as in `deafening silence')"
don't see how this would apply. please enlighten me.
re: justanotherpenguin
As an English major in college I can aver to the fact that "leftover popovers" may be considered an oxymoron. CindyJ's point was that popovers are so great the idea of leftovers simply could not occur.
It is not absolutely necessary for the terms to be specifically opposite, the contradiction can be implied, such as in "military intelligence". The use of the word intelligence would seem to imply the military lacks intelligence---a concept with which I do not adhere. Our military does a great job, often times in spite of insurmountable odds.

re: chefjess
Can anyone recommend the best way to store the leftovers?
re: sasha1
Leftover popovers are sad, chewy, leathery things. If more than a few hours go by before reheating, the "flopovers" are disappointing. Better to make only as many as you need. You could always make less batter, or save the extra batter in the fridge, since there is no baking powder.
re: greygarious
I should've known better, given the 4 cups of flour in the recipe. Had my 2 little boys liked them, we would've been ok. But I think they were too eggy for their taste, so we ended up w/10 big leftover ones. Too much to eat in 2 days...
re: sasha1
while they are not the same, they do stay quite tasty and dense. all we did was put them in plastic sealed bags (not refrigerated), then took them out and zapped in the microwave. they only lasted two mornings after the original dinner destination, but were quite delicious.
re: chefjess
Does it work just as well if you cut the recipe in half to make 6 popovers instead of 12?
This is a foolproof recipe that makes mile-high popovers.
**** Paraphrased recipe ****
Perfect Popovers
Cook's Country (Cook's Illustrated)
Cook's Country TV from the episode: Old-Fashioned Roast Beef Dinner
For best results in releasing popovers from the pan
grease popover pan with shortening or cooking spray.
Don't grease pan with butter.
Don't open oven door during cooking, use oven light
and view popovers through window to check on their progress.
The highest and sturdiest popovers are made using
bread flour. All purpose flour may be substituted, however.
Makes 6 popovers.
Vegetable shortening (see note above)
3 large eggs
2 cups low-fat milk , heated to 110 degrees
3 tablespoons unsalted butter , melted and cooled slightly
2 cups bread flour (see note above)
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon sugar
1. Place oven rack on lower-middle position.
Preheat oven to 450-F. Grease popover cup interiors of
a standard 6-popover pan with shortening or cooking spray.
(Don't use butter). Dust the popover cup interiors
lightly with flour.
In a mixing bowl, whisk the eggs until they are
light and foamy. Whisk in the milk and butter slowly
until they are well mixed.
2. In another mixing bowl, combine the flour, salt
and sugar. Whisk 3/4 of the milk mixture into the
flour mixture. Whisk until all lumps are gone. Now
whisk in the remainder of the milk mixture. Pour
popover batter into a large measuring cup and cover
with plastic wrap. Allow the popover batter to
rest, at room temperature for 1 hour. (The batter
can also be stored in the fridge for 24 hours. Bring
chilled batter to room temperature before baking.)
3. After resting 1 hour, whisk the batter to make sure it is uniform.
Pour all of the batter into the 6-popover cups. Each of
the cups will not be filled all the way to the top.
Bake until popovers just begin to brown, around
20-minutes. Don't open the oven door, but turn
the oven temperature down to 300-F. Continue baking
until the popovers are uniformly golden brown, about
35 to 40 minutes longer. Use a skewer to poke a small
hole in the top of each popover. Continue baking until
they are deep golden brown. About another 10-minutes.
Remove popover pan from oven and place on a wire rack.
Poke top of popovers again with a skewer. Allow to
cool for 2-minutes. Turn popovers out of the pan and serve.
4. Cooled popovers can be stored up to 2-days, at
room temperature, in a ziplock bag. Reheat in a
400-F oven for 5 to 8 minutes on a baking sheet.
They should be heated through and crisp when served.
I look for thick heavy pans to cook popovers in. Since I don't have popover pans, I use my largest ramekins. I generously butter the dishes but don't preheat. I dust the buttered interiors with plenty of cinnamon suger for breakfast popovers (add a little vanilla to the batter too), and parmesan cheese or somthing similar for dinner.
The cinnamon sugar dusting results in a really delicious, relatively high protein warm breakfast treat. You have to remove them immediatly before the sugar hardens in the pan. It gives a crispy, sweet slightly carmelized crust with a soft eggy interior. Great with coffee. I just mix the eggs, flour and milk in a blender. I don't heat up the milk, don't preheat the pans and don't let the mixture sit. I do bake in a convention oven and don't open the door until they are done. And I never have any leftovers.
Are these the same concept as yorkshire puddings, minus the addition of heated fat? If so, I made some great ones last week with some duck fat. I thought I'd recreate it by subbing butter in (didn't want to use all the duck fat up in one week - sheesh) and boy was that a bad idea. It made them really really dark on the outside. I also noticed that they didn't "popover" as high. Maybe the butter doesn't heat up as high as the duck fat did? Either way I did it in your standard muffin tin and it came out pretty damn well.
re: bitsubeats
WOW. super busy! Just came across this thread and while cooking bland meals for people recently (cooking in bulk, on budget for hungry people) I had to respond to this and attach our photo (to remind me of a recent elegant meal)...my husband adds the drippings from the pan (which we cooked a rib roast in for example) and greases the sides of a basic muffin tin with it... then uses his standard classic popover recipe. They're always SO awesome and beautiful! (He'll be making frozen rolls 2nite however!) :(
I find Alton Brown's recipe super simple and has never failed me..
re: runwestierun
Before I got a cast iron popover pan, I used muffin tins, coffee cups, deep custard cups/ramekins, and the typical 6 oz white ceramic ramekins with the fluted pattern on the outside. They all work fine, as long as you preheat them. They are easiest to handle if you put them on a sheet pan so you're not touching each one when it's hot.
re: palomalou
And I've never failed with an old Pyrex recipe which has everything cold...
re: Ruthie789
The recipe at BLT Steak is not from a mix. The pastry chef from the restaurant actually provided the complete recipe above:
They're truly wonderful popovers and I don't think a boxed mix - even one from KAF - can compare. The fresh milk (as opposed to powder reconstituted with water) really makes a difference. I don't doubt that the KAF ones are good, but make the BLT recipe sometime and you'll see why we're all obsessed with them ;)
re: goodhealthgourmet
I will do I offered the mix as an alternative. Sometimes it is handy to have something preprepared. However, KAF, has to sit for 20 minutes before cooking so not all that convenient.

GRAND JUNCTION, Colo. (KKCO) - An Englishman accused of murdering his wife in Garfield County more than a decade ago has appealed his extradition order to the United States.
Marcus Bebb–Jones had until Wednesday to file an appeal with British authorities to contest the extradition order that came down earlier this month.
Garfield County District Attorney Martin Beeson says Marcus filed the appeal Wednesday but no date has been set for a future hearing.
Garfield County Sheriff's Office investigators say he killed his wife Sabrina in 1997. Her skull was found near Douglas Pass in 2004.
The couple owned the Melrose Hotel in Grand Junction.

Zoonotic diseases are those infectious diseases that can be passed on from some species of animal to human beings. The case where humans pass the disease on to an animal is known as reverse zoonosis. Many different animals, both wild animals and domestic animals, can pass on diseases to human beings including flies, sheep, and rodents, for example. In the case of rabbits they can pass on a variety of diseases to human beings including tularaemia, cheyletiella, pasteurellosis, and even Black Death and rabies, for example.
The underlying cause of a zoonotic disease can be any form of small entity that has a pathogenic affect on a human being. This could be a bacterium or a virus, for example. But there are also plenty of zoonotic diseases that are caused by fungi, protozoa, blood-sucking insect parasites, pria, and so on. Tularaemia is caused by the Francisella tularensis bacterium, for example. Cheyletiella, meanwhile, is an infestation by mites.
The zoonotic diseases are particularly worrying because they pose new problems for medical science. The increasing proximity and interactions that human beings engage in with animals means that more and more diseases are being passed across the species boundaries. The new field known as conservation medicine, involving aspects of veterinary and environmental science, is aimed at tackling these zoonotic diseases, including those passed on by rabbits.
One such example is that of Tularaemia. This is a bacterial disease that can be passed on from rabbits to humans and is also known as rabbit fever. It can be transmitted by contact with, even unbroken, human skin. It is thought that eating infected rabbit meat can transmit the disease, for example. In the person it can result in fever and nausea and headache. It can also cause a variety of other problems such as lesions and delirium. In the worst cases it can even lead to death if it appears in its pulmonary or typhoid form.
Another example of a zoonotic disease transmitted by rabbits is pasteurellosis. This is a disease that is carried by many different animals such as birds and pigs, for example. The causative agent is the Pasteurella multocida bacterium. This bacterium infects the upper respiratory tract and oral cavity of the animal. It can be transmitted to a human being through a bite or a scratch. This can lead to inflammation around the wound which may lead to an abscess. There are many more rabbit zoonotic diseases and this list will be added to in the near future.

severe mood swings (Mello and Mendelson 1970; Mello 1968; Isbell et al. 1950); erratic supplies of opioids may be associated with sociop- athic drug-seeking and withdrawal-related mood effects (Jasinski 1977); erratic supply of tobacco can also result in disruption of ongoing activities in an effort to obtain tobacco or as a consequence of withdrawal. Consideration of multiple factors such as the dependence potential of a drug, the extent of its actual use, and the degree to which it produces adverse effects can be used to access the overall liability associated with the use of a drag (i.e., "abuse liability"} (Brady and Lukas 1984; Griffiths et al. 1985; Yanagita 1987). For example, caffeine produces only minimal (if any) disruptive behavioral or physiological effects and is not generally regarded as posing a serious public health problem even though self-administration may be widespread (e.g., caffeine in teaor coffee) (Griffiths and Woodson 1988a,b). In contrast, drugs which produce disruptive physiological and behavioral changes even when self-administered infrequently may be considered to represent a more serious health hazard (e.g., LSD). Drugs may fall anywhere on the continuum defined by these parameters, and the relative impact on health is most effectively determined by a comprehensive assessment of these interactive behavioral and physiological dimensions (Griffiths, Brady, Snell 1978b; Griffiths et al. 1985; Brady and Lukas 1984; Yanagita 1987). Identification of Dependence-Producing Drugs Independent of whether use of a substance has been observed to lead to addiction, it is possible to directly and objectively test a chemical to determine if it is addicting. Such tests provide data used by Federal (e.g., FDA~ Drug Enforcement Administration) and International (e.g., WHO) agencies as to how to regulate chemicals. In fact, new drugs are usually evaluated and regulated ("scheduled") before they are ever made available for medical application. Such decisions rely heavily upon the known properties of addicting drugs and on the methods used to test for such properties (bath described in this Chapter). Although the physicechemical structure of the drug is one determinant of the stimulus effects produced by drug adminis- tration, simply knowing the drug structure is rarely sufficient to predict the nature and magnitude of possible drug effects (Barnett, Trsie, Willette 1978); behavioral and physiological testing in animals and humans is usually necessary. When there is convergent evidence from multiple measures of dependence potential; then the drug is appropriately regarded as addicting or dependence producing. Whether humans outside the laboratory actually become addicted will depend on additional factors such as availability, price, and social acceptability of the drug (US DHHS 1987; also see discussion by Katz and Galdberg 1988).

Table 6 provides a comparison of several drugs in terms of the major measures that have been reviewed in this Chapter. As shown in the table, drugs known to produce widespread problems in a given population are characterized by positive responses with most of these measures (cocaine, morphine-like drugs, alcohol, and nicotine). Conversely, drugs not contributing to such problems have fewer positive responses on the various tests (cholorpremazine). Intermedi- ate drugs are associated with intermediate levels of difficulty in management of use. Comparison Among Drugs Within a given class of drugs, it is sometimes possible to rate their .celative efficacy as reinforcers by how much behavior was affected (e.g., how many lover prossos would occur or how much money would be paid) (Griffiths etal. 1981; Yanagita 1987). For instance, the slowor onsetting/offsotting formulations of opioids, barbiturates, stimulants, and nicotine appear to hays a lower dependence poten- tial than the quicker onsotting and offsetting formulations (Jaffe 1985). The practical gonecaiity of such comparisons, however, is limited beeauso many other factors determine the overall level of depon- dence that might dovolop, the extent 'of social and/or personal damage, and the resulting level of social concern (Yanagita 1987; Katz and Goldberg 1988). For example, the increasing availability and decreasing relative price of cocaine in recen.t years are major factors contributing to increased levels of use and resultant social damage (US DHHS 1987). Analogously, the widespread ready availability and the relatively low cost of tobacco products and alcohol have probably contributed to the much higher rates of addiction and mortality associated with alcohol and tobacco than with drugs such as cocaine, even though cocaine may appear to be a more offoctivo reinforcer in animals. Social or cultural factors may also contribute to the spread and levels of drug use. For example, sensational press reporting may have contributed to the populariza- tion of barbiturates in the 1960s (Breoher 1972), and the mass marketing and advertising of tobacco products is likely to have contributed to the use of these products, ospecially among women and ospecially in the case of smokeless tobacco products (Ernster 1985, 1986; Warner 1986b; Davis 1987; Tye, Warrior, Giants 1987). Four oxamplos of drugs associated with striking changes in the prevalence of use among various populations as well as associated morbidity are: alcohol, for which use and associated disoases decreased during the Prohibition years early in the 20th century; lysorgic acid diethylamide (LSD), for which use and associated hospitalizations were elevated during the 1960s; cocaine, for which use and associated hospitalizations increased during the 1970s 305
Page 315: 0071015953
(Crowiey and Rhine 1985; Levine 1984; Nahas and Frick 1991; Dupont, Goldstein, Brown 1979; Holder 1987; US DHHS 1987); tobacco, in which consumption of smokeless tobacco products in- creased among youth in 1970s and cigarette consumption increased sharply among women in the 1950s and 1960s (US DHHS 1991, 1986; Appendix A). As discussed in the aforementioned references, the changes in use of these drugs were not due to changes in the pharmacologic actions of the drug or sudden changes in genetic constitution of the populations, but rather to changes in factors such as availability, cost, social acceptability, regulatory controls, market- ing efforts, and general perceptions about the risks associated with use. Finally, various other factors contribute to the level of social concern and may be only indirectly related or unrelated to the pharmacologic properties of the drug itself. For instance, the observations on transmission of AIDS by way of shared needles among i.e. drug users and on cancer caused by tobacco smoke carcinogens have greatly increased the liability of use attributed to these drugs in recent years. Environmental Determinants of Drug Dependence Including Behavioral Cond/tionlng A common feature of use of all dependence.producing drugs is that the positive (satisfaction symptoms) and negative (e.g., withdrawal symptoms) effects may become conditioned responses to associated environmental stimuli, The implications of this are important for understanding the chronic and self-sustaining nature of drug dependencies. Such conditioning is a powerful behavioral mechan- ism by which the drug comes to control an increasing amount of the behavior of the drug user (Thompson and Schuster 1968; Goldberg 1976a). Some of the important environmental determinants of drug dependence are discussed elsewhere in this Chapter in the context of drug self-administration studies. These factors include: (I) the behavioral or economic cost of the drug itself or of taking the drug, (2) direct pressure to take the drug by making other reinforcers contingent upon drug taking, and (3) the other ongoing activities of the person (e.g., demanding work schedule) that tend to enhance drug taking. The focus of the present Section is on environmental stimuli that may contribute to drug dependence by evoking urges to use drugs, and by eliciting bodily responses that mimic the usual effects of either drug taking or drug withdrawal reactions. 306 •
Page 316: 0071015953
Drug Taking as a Learned Behavior The interface between a drug and its effects is the behavior of obtaining and ingesting the drug. Such behavior is learned behavior, and as discussed earlier in this Chapter, many of the factors that modulate this behavior are similar to those which modulate other learned behaviors including eating, exercise, and occupational skills (Thompson and Schuster, 1968). Technically, drug taking is "operant behavior" and includes "respondent" or "classically conditioned" components. The basic governing principle of operant behavior is that it occurs in the context of certain stimuli and is either strengthened or weakened by the nature of the consequence (a positive reinforcer strengthens the response and a punisher weakens the response} (Skinner 1938, 1953). Thus, for example, a friend might offer a drug (antecedent stimulus); the drug is ingested (operant behavior or response); and the effects of the drug strengthen the behavior (positive reinforcement). Respondent conditioning occurs simultaneously and further contributes to the strength of the behavior (Bouton and Swartzentruber 1986). A drug might serve as an unconditioned stimulus which elicits a relatively involuntary response (e.g., nicotine and morphine can elicit feelings of pleasure and/or nausea); when physical dependence has occurred, drug abstinence can also elicit certain responses (e.g., anxiety and urges to take the drug). Any environmental or even internal stimulus can become part of this conditioning process by repeated association with the elicited response. For example, the taste of alcohol, the smell of' smoke, "thinking" about use of the substance, and the sight of cocaine- or opioid-associated paraphernalia can elicit feelings associ- ated with either the administration or withdrawal of the drug (Childress, McLenan, O'Brien 1986a,b; Ludwig 1986; Ludwig and Stark 1974; Erben 1977; Gotestam and Melin 1983; Pickeus, Bigelow, Griffiths 1973; Rickard-Figueroa and Zeichner 1985; Levine 1974). The simultaneous operation of both operant and respondent conditioning can converge to generate and maintain powerful chains of behavior over which the individual may have little control. As shown earlier in this Chapter, highly addicting drugs are those which are very effective at reinforcing behavior and eliciting responses. Their power can be increased by factors such as drug deprivation, which may be associated with a discomforting with- drawal syndrome. In the presence of withdrawal, the person may behave in a way to relieve the discomfort of a withdrawal syndrome', in this case the withdrawal syndrome itself may be said to be functioning as a negative reinforcer. When drugs are readily available, as with tobacco for most people or opioids for physicians, these behavioral conditioning processes may be very subtle because the drug can be taken in a pattern that avoids excessive discomfort. For example, early interoceptive or subjective withdrawal cues that 307
Page 317: 0071015953
are evident upon waking in the morning signal that "it is time to smoke a cigarette," and thus the smoker neither "forgets to smoke" nor experiences pronounced withdrawal symptoms. As implied by the foregoing discussion, the strength and persis- tence of drug-seeking behavior are not just functions of the drug itself or of withdrawal. Rather, they are determined by many factors, such as the number of times that certain reponses are associated with certain stimuli, the presence or absence of such stimuli, the subjective discomfort occurring as part of withdrawal, and the availability of the drug. The convergence of so many environmental and subjective forces can result in extremely persistent behavior that may appear disproportionate to the pleasure actually experi- enced when the drug is taken (e.g., the few minutes of pleasure from the postdinner cigarette or when heroin is taken after 8 to 12 hr of deprivation). In fact, the subjective pleasure itself may be very mild, and the person may describe the role of the drug as "simply maintaining feelings of normalcy or comfort" and not as "getting high" per se. The scientific basis for these observations has been actively and systematically studied since the pioneering work of Wikler and others (Wikler 1973) and has been reported and reviewed in detail elsewhere (Goudie and Demellweek 1986; O'Brien, Ehrman, Ternes 1986; Grabowski and Cherek 1983; Grabowski and O'Brien 1981; Childress, McLenan, O'Brien 1986a,b; McLellan et el. 1986; Wikler 1973; Meyer and Mirin 1979). Drug-Associated Stimuli Modulate Drug Seeking Stimuli associated with drug effects may come to elicit ("trigger") those same effects or sometimes opposite effects (withdrawal re. sponses). For example, increased heart rate induced by stimulant administration may become associated with multiple environmental stimuli - the color of the tablet, the individual who provided it, and the office environment in which the drug was taken. These stimuli may act alone or in concert. One stimulus may produce a slight heart rate change; two such stimuli may produce a larger change; and the presentation of many such stimuli may have a synergistic effect. Other stimuli may counteract or facilitate these effects (Schindler, Katz, Goldberg, in press). The response produced in relation to environmental correlates may differ qualitatively from the direct drug effect. For instance, the direct effect of a drug may be a heart rate increase, whereas the conditioned or learned response to drug.associated stimuli may be either a decrease or an increase in heart rate. Changes may be particularly evident for agents with biphasie effects such as nicotine. Whatever the direction of change in response value, the events may be of physiological and behavioral significance (for example, see Childreas, McLellan, O'Brien 1986a,b; O'Brien, Ehrman, Ternes Q 308 •
Page 318: 0071015953
1986; Stewart, de Wit, Eikelboom 1984; Orabowski and O'Brien 1991; Childress at al., in press). These complex conditioning processes which can function to precipitate drug taking appear to function similarly for a variety of drugs including opioids and tobacco (Ternes 1977). Since the 1960s many researchem have shown that the role of associated stimuli is important for diverse biological reinforcers such as drugs, food, and sex. For example, Thompson and Schuster (1964) demonstrated that environmental stimuli paired with drugs could themselves come to generate drug seeking in monkeys.Schuster and Woods (1968), Davis and Smith (1976), and Carnathan, Meyer, and Cochin (1977) demonstrated that stimuli previously associated with drug taking could generate much drug-seeking behavior in animals during extinction of use when the drug is no longer available. Similar findings were obtained in a study of i.v. cocaine self- administrationin which human volunteers emitted high rates of lever pressing in the presence of cocaine-associated stimuli when the drug was not available (Katz and Goldberg 1988). Goldberg (1976b) reported that environmental stimuli associated with drug taking could help sustain substantial behavioral reper- toires in monkeys often far in excess of the behavior that was maintained when just the drug was given. Similarly, Meisch found that the taste and smell of alcohol, which were normally found to be highly aversive to rats, becan~e highly effective stimuli in their own right in the maintenance of alcohol-seeking behavior, even when alcohol was not actually available for the rats to consume (Meisch 1977). Lal and colleagues (1976) demonstrated that environmental stimuli previously associated with drug effects could, by producing drug-like responses, attenuate opiate withdrawal signs in rats. These and many other studies have shown conclusively that specific environmental stimuli associated with drug taking exert control over drug seeking, drug taking, and characteristics of the drug response itself. Environmental conditions in many forms can contribute to sustained drug use, and specific stimulus conditions can have well- defined drug-like properties. This phenomenon, which has been well documented in laboratory settings, is recognized as being powerful in clinical pharmacology, in which "placebo" effects (conditioned responses to drug.taking conditions) may be dramatic and difficult to separate from so-called direct drug effects. Both direct drug effects and these established through learning influence physiology and behavior, thereby contributing to the strength of addictive behav- iors. Recent reports suggest that conditioned effects can be attenuat- ed for some individuals through effective treatment specifically designed to extinguish, or alter through learning, these responses (Childrees, McLellan, O'Brien 1986a,b; MeLellan et al. 1986). ~o9
Page 319: 0071015953
The stimuli associated with drug effects also may generate further drug seeking and drug taking. Wikler (1973) and more recently Meyer and Mirin (1979) contributed substantially to both the conceptual framework and the data describing these complex phenomena. These investigators found that environmental stimuli which correlated with direct drug effects are pertinent to the acquisition, maintenance, and elimination of opioid taking by humans. Similar findings were observed in an intensive study of an alcoholic subject: alcohol.associated stimuli produced orderly re- sponses including urges to drink and even drinking itself (Pickens, Bigelow, Griffiths 1973). A series of studies by Goldberg and his colleagues (Goldberg 1970; Goldberg, Kelleher, Morse 1975; Goldberg and Kelleher 1977; Goldberg, Spoalman, Kelleher 1979) showed that environmental stimuli occasionally associated with morphine injec- tions or with ear!y withdrawal effects could lead to increased drug seeking and/or drug taking. Conditioned withdrawal Symptoms May Precipitate Drug Seeking Wikler (1948) first described the discomfort of long-abstinent patients on their return to environments in which they had previously used drugs and experienced withdrawal symptoms. Subse- quently, Wikler (1973), O'Brien (1975) and colleagues (O'Brien, Ehrman, Ternes !986; O'Brien et al. 1975} and several other researchers (Siegel 1975, 1976, 1978; Eikelbeom and Stewart 1979; Stewart, de Wit, Eikelboom 1984; Childress et al., in press) have made fundamental contributions to the identification of the complex interplay of factors modulating the physiological and behavioral components of abstinence. These and other studies have shown that the conditions established by abrupt withdrawal after chronic administration of a drug can serve as setting conditions which may result in further drug taking. In other words, for some individuals the onset or anticipation of abstinence symptoms may be strongly linked to reinitiation of drug self-administration. In turn, the drug effect reinforces the reinitiation of drug taking (Stewart, de Wit, Eikelboom 1984). Withdrawal symptoms and drug taking may thus become closely associated with a range of environmental stimuli. These stimuli then come to elicit abstinence symptoms and generate drug taking through a variety of powerful biobehavioral mechan- isms. In fact, McNeill and colleagues (1986) have concluded that the pattern of abstinence symptoms itself may be in part determined by conditioning factors. Environmental stimuli can lead to drug seeking by eliciting distressing conditioned withdrawal effects. Several thorough reviews on conditioning factors in drug dependence indicate that correlated behaviors and stimuli dramatically alter drug effects, withdrawal Q 810 •

symptoms, and other features of substance use behaviors (Goudle and Demellweek 1986; O'Brien, Ehrman, Ternes 1986; Grabowski and Cherek 1983; Grabowski and O'Brien 1981). These interacting factors have also been described in a number of prominent medical and scientific texts (Jaffe 1986, 1987), as well as in the recent Second Triennial Report to Congress from the Secretory, Department of Health and Human Services (US DHHS 1987). One of the clearest observations of the contribution of environmen- tal factors in tobacco withdrawal was made by Hatsukami, Hughes, and Pickens (1985). They noted that the number of withdrawal signs increased substantially when cessation occurred in the natural envirenn)ent. Parallels exist in both laboratory research and natu- ralistic observation. Stitzer, Bigelow, and McCaul (1983) reviewed this literature and noted that individuals restrained from access to drugs for prolonged periods tend to return to use when the agents are again available; the implication is that environmental stimuli contribute to relapse. In a laboratory study, Thompson and Ostlund (1965) found that relapse to self-administration occurs rapidly for animals removed from, and then after extended periods returned to, the original environment but net for animals that undergo extinc- tion o~" self-administzation within that environment. In a reverse situation in humans, Robins, Davis, and Goodwin (1974) reported that individuals who experienced initial drug use in the stressful and ready-access conditions of the Vietnam war tended not to continue use on return to the United States. ' Relapse to Drug Dependence For many drug-dependent persons, achieving at least brief periods of drug abstinence is a readily achievable goal. Maintaining absti- nence, or avoiding relapse, however, poses a much greater overall challenge• There is a substantial base of data for these conclusions. Treatment outcome reviews concerning opioid (Platt 1986), alcohol (Miller and Hester 1986a; Peele 1987), and tobacco (Brownell et aL 1986; Lichtonstein 1982; Schwartz 1987) dependence show that clinical interventions are often successful in producing short-torm cessation of drug use but that relapse to use is a frequent posttreatment occurrence (Hunt, Barnett, Branch 1971; Brewnell, Marlatt et al. 1986). An important issue in the contemporary study of addictions is the degree to which relapse and recovery are generalizable across categories of substances (US DHHS 1986; Tiros and Leukefeld 1986; Marlatt 1979; Miller and Hester 1986a,b; Schwartz 1987). This Section examines rates and predictors of relapse across drug classes with emphasis on comparisons among alcohol, opioids, and tobacco. 311

The Merrill Fire Department said three weekend fires cause more than $400,000 damage in the city.
The department respond to three fire all just about one hour a part.
The first fire was reported at noon Saturday at a storage unit on County Road C in the Town of Merrill. Dispatch received a call reporting truck on fire inside one of the units. Bystanders and a deputy sheriff were able to pull the truck from the unit. The cause of that fire has not yet been determined. The damage is estimated to be about $5,000.
The most serious damage was reported around 1 p.m. Saturday at Yorde Tool & Machining on Jackson Street in Merrill. Fire crews were able to stop the fire progress at the fire wall. However, damage estimates are believed to be around $400,000.
And just before 3 p.m., crews responded to the 400 block of Genesse Street for a report of smoke coming from an attic. The department said the fire was contained to the room of origin. The damage is believed to be around $23,000.
The second and third call came in as crews were still at the scene of the storage unit fire. Merrill Fire Chief Dave Savone said mutual aid from neighboring department was crucial in keeping the fires under control
"There was a lot of fire and a lot of work to be done. We just wouldn't have been able to do it by ourselves, and someday we will be able to pay it forward and come back to those towns when they need a hand," he explained.
The Merrill Fire Department received mutual aid from Corning, Pine River, Wausau, Tomahawk, and Russel. As well as Merrill Police, the Lincoln County Sheriff's office and the DNR.
The chief says the vehicle and factory fires are still under investigation. But he says they believe candles may have started the house fire.

text: UK Charity Regulator Boss Vows to Take on Islamist Extremists Print article Send a Tip by Nick Hallett 20 Apr 2014 post a comment The head of Britain's Charity Commission has warned the organisation's "most deadly" problem is Islamist extremists setting up charities as cover for their activities. In an interview with the Sunday Times, William Shawcross said: "The problem of Islamist extremism and charities... is not the most widespread problem we face in terms of abuse of charities, but is potentially the most deadly. And it is, alas, growing." He warned that some charities were using their status to send money to extremists in Syria, with some going as far as training young British Muslims to fight for Al Qaeda. He said that the Commission would take "tough measures" if it discovered that any charity was involved in such actions. Although he admitted that it can be difficult to monitor the actions of groups in foreign countries, especially in war-torn Middle East states, he said that the Commission would always be "vigilant". "I'm sure that in places like Syria and Somalia and other places, it's very, very difficult for agencies always to know what the end use of their aid is," he said. "But they've got to be particularly vigilant." Mr Shawcross also called for urgent action to close a "loophole" where people convicted or terrorism offences or money laundering are still allowed to set up charities or serve as trustees. "It is ludicrous that people with convictions for terrorist offences are not automatically disqualified from serving as charity trustees," he said. There have been concerns that some charities may be using humanitarian aid as a cover for funding hard line Islamist groups in Syria. The Commission is currently investigating three charities that are suspected of raising funds for Syrian Islamists, and is monitoring seven others.

Floating Cities, Elevators into Space, and Trains Crossing the Atlantic: What the Future of Travel Holds
Back to the Future, The Jetsons, and Robocop incorrectly predicted the future. The Cubs haven't won the World Series like the almanac said. We're nowhere near robotic maids, although Siri's close. And robocops aren't yet patrolling the streets, but they will in Detroit soon enough, so maybe that one's correct. Needless to say, it's difficult to predict the future, and future travel technologies are no different. If you asked men in the '40s if we'd ever send a man to the moon, you'd probably hear a resounding groan. If you asked people in the early '90s if buying a plane ticket meant logging onto a single website, and, in the matter of four clicks, you could jet your way to Dublin, I doubt they'd believe you. So today, what innovation will blow our minds in ten, twenty, fifty years? Space travel… so very real: True, we're nowhere near the lives The Jetsons predicted, and I'm not advocating for r-obsessed dogs named Astro to alleviate our own space-race, but, for a hefty fee of $20 million, the Russians will shoot any bidder into space—a second space race?
