Tax abatement granted for Walgreens expansion
Ellis County Commissioners approved a tax abatement agreement with Walgreens for an expansion of its
"They will be adding an additional 32,000 square feet and will employ an additional 75 people," said Special Projects Director
The expansion will cost an estimated $35.5 million and qualifies for a 60 percent tax abatement over a period of seven years under the County's existing guidelines.
"This includes $11.4 million in the building and $24.1 million in equipment,"
Moving continually forward with the bond project, as approved by voters last May, the Court authorized the County Judge to sign a contract with Apex Geoscience for geotechnical testing services associated with design and construction, pending minor changes in the contract requested by the District Attorney's office.
"This is about 30 drilled holes and the recommendations that will ensue on the foundations," said County Engineer Joe White. "We went through the request for qualifications process and looked at several different firms, with Staubach's assistance."
The Court adjourned into a short executive session to seek the advice of its attorneys concerning two items posted on the evening's agenda under Purchasing.
The first was posted as consideration and action to award a bid for #4 Pea Gravel for all precincts. The Court could take no action on the item because no bids were received for the product.
The second item was posted as discussion of multiple awards to suppliers of road materials and the availability of supply to
"Essentially, there is difficulty in getting merchants to bid on our products, and so it would be recommended that the Purchasing Agent seek out other Counties and what they are doing, possibly riding on to their bids for the same products with an interlocal agreement," said County Judge Chad Adams when the meeting was reconvened. "And possibly examining TXDOT's purchasing agreements and maybe doing an interlocal agreement with that State agency, to ride along with their bids and use the same vendors."
Adams said the County and District Attorney's office would also do some research in the near future with regard to dealing with situations when no bids are received for materials that are essential to the maintenance of roads and bridges in the County.
Another lengthy discussion centered around a request for a variance to the County's Rules, Regulations and Specifications for Subdivisions relating to lot size requirement. Homeowners in precinct 4 had obtained a permit to build a shop but instead built a small brick residence, tying it into the existing septic system on the already under-sized lot.
"This is in a subdivision that was platted prior to the County going to full one-acre lots, and this lot is less than 7/10 of an acre," said Department of Development Director Delton Ake. "The variance today is we have two residences on less than one acre of land, and our regulations will not allow that."
Rules and regulations regarding septic systems are promulgated by the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality and are designed to protect public health and safety. The State grants the County the authority to permit septic systems and monitor compliance with the State's installation and inspection regulations.
Members of the Court listened carefully to input from the homeowners, but voted unanimously to deny the variance.
In other business, Commissioners:
· Approved a proclamation recognizing the 100th anniversary of
· Approved allowing Waste Management to be financed with industrial revenue bonds, with no financial obligation on the part of
· Appointed Mr. Bart Hundt to the board of Ellis County Emergency Service District #2 –

· Approved a final plat for Rockett Ranch, contingent upon receipt of new drawings showing additional right of way as requested by TXDOT and in keeping with the County's Thoroughfare Plan;
· Approved the purchase of one New Holland Backhoe from Landmark Equipment at a cost of $36,150 for precinct 4;
· Declared one Terex double drum vibratory roller as surplus in precinct 3 and approved of its disposal at auction.

Vivian Maier – street photography discoveryPosted: February 27th, 2011 | Author: muirface | Filed under: Issues, One To Watch, Photography, street photography, vivian maier | Comments Off
There was a bit of a buzz last month about the discovery of over 100,000 photos taken by a previously unknown amateur named Vivian Maier. The vibrant photos of life on the streets of Chicago and New York were discovered in an auction when her storage locker was reclaimed due to missed payments. Critics are saying that she could give renowned street photographers such as Robert Frank and Walker Evans a run for their money. A guy called John Maloof has been painstakingly scanning and cataloguing the work (he's the guy with the dollar signs in his eyes in this lengthy video). He puts more up on his blog every few days, I'd recommend having a look.

Our Featured Vacaville, CA Partner:
Field Of Dreams Rescue
Dog adoption saves lives. Adopt a dog and you'll have a friend for life! Contact us, or contact another local humane society, animal shelter or SPCA.
Vacaville, CA 95688
(707) 624-6660
Pets at Our Rescue Group:
Cities, Towns, and/or Counties We Serve:Vacaville and surrounding Bay Area
About Our Rescue Group:The mission and vision for Field Of Dreams Rescue is to save dogs of all sizes and all breeds by placing them into loving, forever homes. We are an all-volunteer, foster home based, dog rescue organization based in northern California. We do not have a physical shelter. Instead, we operate primarily through our foster homes, online databases and at adoption events/expos.
The majority of our animals come from animal control groups where overcrowding and overpopulation lead to the euthanasia of millions of healthy, friendly pets every year.
We are committed to providing the dogs that come Field Of Dreams Rescue with the best possible care while they wait for their forever homes by acclimating them to life outside of a shelter and providing the appropriate veterinary care needed.
We also serve our community and adopters by educating and encouraging responsible pet ownership with an emphasis on the need for spaying and neutering.
Because our foster homes are the backbone of Field Of Dreams Rescue, and to help our organization run smoothly, it is our goal to provide the best experience possible. We encourage each foster home to be as involved as they are comfortable with and allow them the freedom to foster based on their needs, restrictions, or desires.
Come Meet our Pets:All dogs go into foster homes, appointments can be made daily to meet dogs.
Our Adoption Process:Field Of Dreams Rescue typically charges adoption donations from $200 to $400 depending on the age and breed of the dog. This amount covers our cost for basic vet care for our healthy animals which includes spaying/neutering, age appropriate vaccinations, deworming, microchipping. Frequently, medical expenses for a single dog far exceeds the adoption donation. A few days of emergency care can easily run over $1000. Many of our volunteers contributed personal funds to help offset costs for our dogs, but every single dollar received from adoption donations goes directly to care for our animals. Any "extra" received goes towards those dogs that require more extensive medical care. When we are able, we bring in dogs that may have some minor or even major health concerns as these types of dogs are more at risk of euthanasia than healthy ones.
In general, adopting a dog is much more economical than "buying" a dog from a store or breeder. A "purchased" dog plus vaccinations, spay/neuter, microchip can easily exceed $2000 depending on the breed.

Seattle superheroes turn out for May Dayon May 2, 2013 @ 7:59 am (Updated: 12:18 pm - 5/2/13 )
"I'm El Caballero, C-a-b-a-l-l-e-r-o," the superhero spelled out.
"My name is Tomahawk, that is T-o-m-a-h-a-w-k," said his mate.
When you have to spell out your superhero name I guess it means that you haven't quite established your street cred yet.
They were detained by the police because some were worried about the weapons they were carrying.
"Someone in the protest march was concerned because they saw that we had pepper spray on us," said El Caballero, who said he was carrying a Taser and flex cuffs.
"They were concerned that we had weapons that were illegal to possess in public. None of the weapons that we carry are illegal to possess in public," said Tomahawk.
So why do they carry any weapons at all?
"You carry it not because you will always need it but God forbid there is a case where someone is hurting someone and there is no police to be around. They say that when seconds count, police are only minutes away," said Tomahawk. "We think that the best solution is citizens themselves getting involved firsthand stopping crime where they see and reporting it and getting the proper authorities involved."
The superheroes didn't need their weapons on May Day. They did get hit with a stream of silly string and hassled by a few anarchist clowns who threw things at them(another story for another day), Phoenix told the Luke Burbank Show there were no real conflicts and best of all, no property damage during the day.
"I gave them pretty clear warning. I said 'you throw another object and I'm going to citizens arrest you. How does that feel?'" he said.
The Seattle Police Department quickly moved in and quelled the conflict, recapping it in what's become one of the most reposted tweets of the day.
"Brief disturbance earlier at Fifth and Jackson between super heroes and clown . Everything's under control," tweeted a police spokesman.
The only trouble happened after Phoenix had stood down for the night. He had just sat down to dinner with his wife at a local restaurant when trouble making protesters set their sights on downtown, facing off with police.
"This ruined our dinner, didn't it?" his wife said as Phoenix rushed to the street. He didn't have his "supersuit", but he was wearing a bulletproof vest under his shirt as he ran into a crowd of about 15 thugs about to throw a trash can through a business window.
"I was able to grab that trash can to the ground and the guy sucker punched me so I hit him back. And he went down," Phoenix said. "And all the other rioters backed up and the other like 14 decided they didn't want to fight and they just took off running up the road."
Despite the mayhem that saw 17 arrested, Phoenix had plenty of praise for Seattle Police, crediting them with keeping damage to a minimum while giving marchers plenty of leeway.
"They handled the protest like bosses. I mean this year was so much better," he said. "They were completely professional, they used ridiculous amounts of restraint. And you know I'm not a cop fan and I can't tell you how well they did. They were just great."
Clowns, superheroes, silly string and hooligans. Only in Seattle.

The Museum Inn is a superb 17th Century pub with rooms situated in the delightful village of Farnham, Dorset, on the glorious Cranborne Chase, an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and a renowned countryside pursuit's destination. By many, the Museum Inn is recognised as one of the finest inns in England.
Extended in the 1880s by the father of modern archaeology, General Augustus Lane Fox Pitt Rivers, to offer accommodation and refreshments for his nearby museum (the museum – the Pitt Rivers – is now in Oxford). The Museum Inn continues to deliver on its promise of first class food, drink and accommodation.
During 2012, the Museum Inn has been sympathetically renovated and now has a fabulously warm and welcoming interior. The 17th-century bar continues with a period feel, flagstone floors, antiques, and a fashionable mismatch of tables and chairs. There are cosy alcoves to hide in, leather banquette seating and of course roaring log fires. There are eight beautifully appointed double bedrooms, (four in the main house and four in the converted stable block) a relaxing resident's sitting room with honesty bar, and The Shed (a smart but family friendly dining room). Most excitingly, we are delighted to announce the arrival of Moles Cottage, an entirely self contained holiday cottage (with a further eight double bedrooms) and also available in the winter season as a Shooting Lodge.
The Museum Inn has a well established reputation for serving irresistible food and drink. Food that you really look forward to eating knowing that it is fresh, seasonal and better still, sensibly priced. We offer a great range of pub classics and finer dining dishes as well as a children's menu made from the same great quality ingredients as in our other dishes.
So whether you live locally and are here for a pint, a chat and some great food, are visiting to enjoy one of the many outdoor leisure pursuits on offer such as shooting, walking, riding and fishing, or are here simply seeking a relaxing, romantic weekend break, our team look forward to welcoming you to sample the delights on offer at the Museum Inn.

Blepharitis is swelling or inflammation of the eyelids, usually where the eyelash hair follicles are located.
Eyelid inflammation
In people with blepharitis, too much oil is produced by the glands near the eyelid. The exact reason for this problem is not known. Blepharitis is more likely to be seen with:
Blepharitis may be linked to repeated styes and chalazia .
The eyelids appear red and irritated, with scales that stick to the base of the eyelashes. The eyelids may be:
You may feel like you have sand or dust in your eye when you blink. Sometimes, the eyelashes may fall out and the eyelids may become scarred.
An examination of the eyelids during an eye examination is usually enough to diagnose blepharitis.
Careful daily cleansing of the eyelid edges helps remove the skin oils that cause bacteria to grow too much. Your health care provider might recommend using baby shampoo or special cleansers. Antibiotic ointments may also be helpful.
If you have blepharitis:
The likely outcome is good with treatment. You may need to keep the eyelid clean to prevent repeated problems. Continuing treatment will make the eyes less red and more comfortable.
Call for an appointment with your health care provider if symptoms worsen or do not improve after careful cleansing of the eyelids for several days.
Cleaning eyelids carefully will help prevent blepharitis. If a specific skin condition is present, it should be treated.

New Criterion
It's the day after tomorrow, and New York City has been cut off from the rest of the world by a biological-weapon attack followed by the invasion of the white-helmeted Eggheads, an army of Islamist lunatics who may or may not be in league with the Chinese, shadowy corporate interests, or Mrs. Winship's Farm, a rural utopian community of white supremacists. Surviving women are given Auschwitz-style tattoos on the back of the neck and required to cover their heads with identifying blue bonnets when in public or be hanged in Union Square; surviving men—and there are not many—are castrated and worse. Nobody really quite knows what is going on in the rest of the world, but there are rumors of safe havens in Pennsylvania and Ohio.

The The International Bureau Of Aviation (IBA) has appointed Robert Bryant as Manager – Technical Projects. IBA says Bryant brings with him a huge wealth and breadth of experience to further strengthen the Company's technical team.
Robert's career in aviation spans more than 45 years, most recently having held the position of Vice President at SpiceJet in India. He has also held senior positions at a number of other start-up ventures including Air Astana and Al Salam Aircraft Company, as well as working with legacy carriers such as British Airways and Saudia.
"Robert's experience is an excellent fit with the project work we carry out at IBA. He will be an asset to us and our clients" commented Phil Seymour, President and COO at the IBA Group.
In particular IBA has seen demand for expert witness testimony in the field of aircraft maintenance increase 400% over the last two years. This is often related to airline and MRO agreement disputes, or lessor and lessee disputes regarding aircraft delivery and redelivery processes. "The provision by IBA of airline and MRO ratings is also increasing so it is important that we add experience to our team" continues Phil. "This can only be performed with detailed analytical processes combined with practical and pragmatic experience."
Robert adds "I look forward to providing support and advice to IBA's diverse clientele on all aircraft maintenance matters from aircraft delivery and redelivery ventures and issues, CAMO support, through to maintenance cost benchmarking."

Women and underrepresented minorities who have successfully pursued STEM careers were discouraged along the way, according to a report released this week. What's more, those who experienced discouragement in their lives most often cited their educational institutions as the offenders. But they also cited "inspiring and dedicated teachers" as positive influences in their career decisions.
The report, "Facts of Science Education XIV," conducted by research firm Campos and commissioned by pharmaceutical maker Bayer, surveyed 1,226 "female and underrepresented minority" members of the American Chemical Society, specifically chemists and chemical engineers--mostly those who had attained doctoral degrees (64 percent), but also those with bachelor's (20 percent) and master's degrees (16 percent).
What the report found was that a significant portion of those surveyed said they believed they'd been discouraged from pursuing careers in science. Forty percent said that they personally had been "discouraged by individuals during the course of their successful pursuit of a STEM career." Hispanic women indicated that they had fared worse than average, with 50 percent reporting that they had been discouraged--the same figure reported by black men. Asian women reported the lowest amount of discouragement among the statistics cited in the report, at 28 percent, followed by Hispanic men, at 31 percent.
So where is this discouragement happening?
Who were the worst offenders? College professors, according to the report, with 44 percent of respondents citing those individuals as a source of discouragement. That figure jumped up to high of 65 percent among black women and fell down to a low of 28 percent among Asian women. Colleagues, family members, advisors, and teachers were also cited--although teachers and family members were strongly reported as positive factors as well.
The chart below shows a breakdown of the culprits, with those in a position of trust in educational institutions cited most frequently.
Guidance counselors were cited more often as offenders by black men (34 percent), Hispanic women (31 percent), and black women (30 percent).
A number of other barriers also presented themselves to those surveyed for the report on their path to STEM careers. These included:
"If we want to achieve true diversity in America's STEM workforce, we must first understand the root causes of underrepresentation and the ongoing challenges these groups face," said Greg Babe, president and CEO of Bayer, in a statement released Monday. "We want to knock down barriers. If we can do that, we'll be able to develop the attitudes, behaviors, opportunities and resources that lead to success."
So what were the positive influences for these respondents? The vast majority (82 percent) credited a "strong personal interest" in science as one of the factors leading them to a career in STEM.
Others included:
More than three-quarters of respondents (77 percent) said they thought the STEM workforce in the United States is lacking women and underrepresented minorities owing to a lack of early encouragement and nurturing. However, managerial bias in STEM companies is still a significant factor, according to 40 percent of respondents, as is institutional bias (38 percent).
The report had a margin of error of ±3 percent at a 95 percent confidence level. Further information about the survey can be found on Bayer's site here.

20 years back, the Torsion system came and took what the adidas brand did best — runners, and added supportive gadgetry to turn the spotlight back for a while. The adidas ZX 8000 has aged a lot better than the majority of their tech war rivals. These premium versions keep the essence of the shoe and see in 2012 with more respectful takes on Torsion greatness. These fit a little snug, so we recommend going at least half a size up.

Bill de Blasio is New York City's Public Advocate. For the prior eight years, de Blasio served in the New York City Council where he fought to make City Hall more responsive and accountable to New Yorkers.
To take advantage of Citizens United while shielding themselves from accountability, corporate interests have begun steering election funding through nonprofits and trade associations.
Goldman Sachs has agreed not to take advantage of Citizens United to spend corporate money in elections. Will other companies follow suit?
In the face of a Supreme Court
decision that eliminates crucial checks on corporate political
spending nationwide, we must demand greater accountability and
transparency around how corporations spend money in elections across the country.

Admission Requirements
To qualify for admission to the M.B.A. program, a person must hold a bachelor's degree from an accredited college or university. This degree may be in business or another field. Admission is determined by a combination of criteria:
- Completion of the application materials, including an essay statement about career interests
- Official undergraduate transcript(s)
- Attainment of at least 1,000 on the M.B.A. Admissions Index (A.I.)
- A.I. is determined as follows: AI = 200 x composite undergraduate G.P.A. + G.M.A.T. score.
- Applicants holding a graduate degree from an appropriately accredited college or university are exempted from the G.M.A.T. requirement.

- Applicants attaining a 950-999 A.I. may be admitted to the M.B.A. program on academic probation. If admitted on academic probation, the student has 9 credit hours to obtain a 3.0 G.P.A., failure to do so will result in immediate dismissal from the program.
4. $40 admission fee payment.
Because of space and resource constraints, admission of qualified applicants is not automatic. Admission decisions are based on an overall assessment of the applicant's academic capability, professional achievement, and potential.

July 1 (Bloomberg) -- Lawson Software Inc. was unable to sell more than a third of a $1.04 billion loan backing its buyout by Golden Gate Capital Corp. as investors grew more risk adverse amid concerns the economic recovery is slowing.
A bank group led by Credit Suisse AG will hold $440 million, or 42 percent, of a $1.04 billion loan financing Lawson's takeover, after selling $600 million to investors earlier this week. Two other loans deals totaling $700 million also were pulled from the market, according to data compiled by Bloomberg.
Concerns about a slowing U.S. economy and the debt crisis in Europe made it more difficult to get deals done even as loan prices rebounded from an almost six-month low. The yield to investors was increased on about $4 billion of leveraged loans, while Alliance Healthcare Services Inc. scrapped a $590 million refinancing and Norit Holding BV canceled a $110 million second- lien dividend loan, Bloomberg data show.
"The market has been a little choppy," said Paul Kauffman, partner at Highland Capital Management LP, which has $18 billion in loan investments. "Buyers are being pretty selective."
Greek Prime Minister George Papandreou rallied enough votes in parliament on June 29 to pass the first part of an austerity plan needed to secure a European bailout package and stave off default.
"The fact that got passed caused some relief in the market, but they still have a long way to resolving their financial issues," said Lisa Kasparian, an institutional portfolio manager at Fidelity Investments in Boston.
Fed Forecast
Germany's biggest banks and insurers and the government agreed to roll over Greek debt holdings worth at least 2 billion euros ($2.9 billion), Finance Minister Wolfgang Schaeuble said yesterday in Berlin.
The Federal Reserve cut its growth forecast for the U.S. economy before ending its $600 billion second round of quantitative easing, known as QE2, yesterday. The economy will expand 2.7 percent to 2.9 percent this year, down from forecasts ranging from 3.1 percent to 3.3 percent in April, Fed officials said June 22.
More Americans than forecast applied for unemployment benefits last week, signaling little progress in the labor market. Jobless claims fell by 1,000 to 428,000 in the week ended June 25, Labor Department figures showed yesterday in Washington. Economists surveyed by Bloomberg estimated for claims to drop to a median 420,000.
Slowing Demand
Investors pulled a record $3.5 billion from high-yield bond funds during the week ended June 22, while bank loan funds had $23 million of inflows, according to data from EPFR Global.
"Demand for loans in the primary and secondary market has slowed down a little, and that has caused spreads to get a little wider," said Kauffman.
Lawson, which in April agreed to a $2 billion buyout by Golden Gate and business-software provider Infor Global Solutions, increased the interest rate on its $1.04 billion loan to 5.25 percentage points more than the London interbank offered rate, from the 4.5 percentage points originally proposed, according to a person with knowledge of the deal who declined to be identified because the terms are private. The maturity on the debt was reduced to six years, from seven.
The St. Paul, Minnesota-based company sold the loan to investors at 96 cents on the dollar, compared with an initial proposal of 98.5 cents to 99 cents, according to Bloomberg data. So-called original-issue discounts reduce proceeds for the borrower and boost the yield for investors.
SRA, Alere
SRA International Inc., the provider of computer services to the U.S. government, also increased the rate on an $875 million loan backing its buyout by Providence Equity Partners to 5.25 percentage points more than Libor, from an originally pitched range of 4.25 percentage points to 4.5 percentage points.
Alere Inc., the health-management services provider based in Waltham, Massachusetts, and Norit, the Dutch producer of activated carbon products, each increased the yield to investors on first-liens loans, according to Bloomberg data.
The margin on Alere's $875 million refinancing term loan B widened to 3.5 percentage points, compared with the originally expected range of 3 percentage points to 3.25 percentage points. The rate on the company's $250 million revolving credit and $625 million term loan A was boosted to 2.75 percentage points more than Libor, from 2.5 percentage points more than the lending benchmark proposed two weeks earlier, Bloomberg data show.
Norit's $260 first-lien loan backing a dividend was increased this week to 5.25 percentage points more than libor, from an initial offer of 4.5 percentage points to 4.75 percentage points, according to a person with knowledge of the matter.
Investor 'Discipline'
Investors are pushing back to say "you're not paying us enough for the risk in the market today," Kasparian said. "We like to get that discipline."
Companies have raised $369 billion of leveraged loans this year, up 93 percent from $191 million during the first half of last year. Leveraged loans are a type of speculative-debt rated less than Baa3 by Moody's Investors Service and BBB- by S&P.
"We have seen loan prices rebound, coming off their bottom in the last two to three days," Kauffman said.
The S&P/LSTA U.S. Leveraged Loan 100 Index closed yesterday at 94.22 cents on the dollar, rising three straight days from an almost six-month low of 93.91 cents on June 27.
Prices are still off a Feb. 14 peak of 96.48 cents, the highest price since November 2007.
In a revolving credit facility, money can be borrowed again once it's repaid; in a term loan, it can't. A term loan B is sold mainly to non-bank lenders such as collateralized loan obligations, bank loan mutual funds and hedge funds. A term loan A is sold mainly to banks.

Fish and Chips at Full English
Posted on 25 March 2014
The Austin Monthly featuring our fish and chips is now on news stands, with a beautiful picture- if it comes up online too, we'll link it here
Meanwhile, if you haven't been before, here is everything you need to know about fish and chips at Full English:
We ONLY serve fish and chips on Friday evenings, from 6-9pm. (The rest of the time, we serve everything else on our menu here but NOT fish and chips!)
When we are serving fish and chips, our entire (very small) kitchen is dedicated to doing that, so our all-day breakfast menu is NOT available on Friday nights.
We do not sell wine or beer, but we are BYOB so please feel free to bring your own, for no extra charge
Full English: how it works
First, you need to line up at the counter to make your order. You can find yourself a table, and your food will be brought out as soon as it is ready. All our food is hand cooked to order, so there may be a waiting time. We will let you know how long you can expect to wait when you make your order, but if the cafe is full, waits may be long and tables may be in short supply.
Thanks very much for reading, and see you at Full English!

This fabulous candy looks like fudge, and tastes a bit like fudge, but a very special fudge you have never had before! Crumbly, caramelly, vanilla-y (if that's a word) and extremely more-ish, tablet hails from eighteenth century Scotland, and is first mentioned in The Household Book of Lady Grizel Baillie, which sounds like a very cool book, judging from the title. Since Scotland also gave us Millionaire's Shortbread and deep-fried Mars Bars, not to mention the Tunnock's Wafer Biscuit, it's not very surprising to us that this super-sweet, highly addictive confectionery also originates north of the border (and we mean that as a compliment not an insult!) The deliciousness comes from real butter, condensed milk and (yes) lots of sugar, boiled together for a very long, exactly correct time. So, definitely a fine treat for the festive season. In fact, Alice personally consumed an entire bag of tablet this Thanksgiving, in order to test-drive it really, really thoroughly, and she can testify that for those of us with sweet-tooth tendencies, it really is very hard to beat- both as an amazing sweet, and as a habit… perhaps one day, they will make a hilarious movie about the way tablet sometimes takes over people's lives, possibly called… Tabletspotting?
Now we come to Milk Chocolate Truffles, which are not originally Scottish, in fact they were invented in France, as you might imagine. However, a mere seven years later, in 1902, truffles came over to England, and the original shop they came to still exists- Prestat, in London. Prestat was established by Anton Dufour, whose family invented the truffle, and obviously Monsieur Dufour was a total marketing genius who knew precisely where to find the most enthusiastic market for his delicious chocolates, namely, the Brits! Our Full English truffles are the original French kind, made from ganache, which is very simple and perfect- just chocolate and cream. If you've had commercial truffles made with things like coconut fat and milk powder, these are quite different. We will be making other truffles at Full English this season (Dark Orange and White Champagne), but since simplest is often most delicious, we decided to start with these; just Belgian milk chocolate and heavy cream, hand-rolled in powdered sugar. Heavenly!
And here is something a bit more substantial, in case you prefer your sweets slightly bigger; Lemon Drizzle Cake is one of the most popular cakes in Britain, and for a good reason. It combines a lovely moist lemon pound cake with the amazing…zing of a lemon juice glaze, adding a very special citrus tang to the cake. This makes your tastebuds feel happy and alive, unlike blander cakes. Obviously we use proper normal ingredients like butter, eggs, sugar and flour, not cake mixes or anything weird, because they taste better. And here's something someone wrote about proving Lemon Drizzle is better than Starbucks lemon cake, by baking one (there's a recipe at the bottom, in case you want to do it yourself).
All these sweets are available to order through December at the Full English Cafe (click here for our full Holiday menu), and ready to eat at the cafe in rotation through the month. So if you want to try any of the sweets in this post, now is an excellent time!
See you at Full English!

|I lived in Atlanta when there was a West Nile epidemic there a few years ago and remember how many of the larger birds disappeared due to the virus. It took a few years until the crow and blue jay numbers returned to normal. I recall newspaper reports of "another blue jay found dead tested positive for West Nile" and such. Have you noticed any dead birds? I am concerned abuot my dogs and there are two fledging hawks on my street that I've watched since they hatched and am worried about them, too.

|I do remember hearing how hard WNV is on corvids (jays, crows, ravens...) not large birds in general, but according to the CDC dogs may not be affected at all, similar to humans, who rarely develop symptoms.
- Posted by beachplant 9b (email@example.com) on Sun, Aug 19, 12 at 14:14
|it hit the blue jays here hard a few years back. We haven`t gotten very many calls about dead birds this year, usually when something is on the news about west nile they always mention birds, then for the next few weeks anyone that find a dead bird seems to call the poison control center.

Ghidorah, the Three-Headed MonsterComments26
|Godzilla Films
Ghidorah, the Three-Headed Monster (三大怪獣 地球最大の決戦?, San Daikaijū: Chikyū Saidai no Kessen lit. Three Giant Monsters: Earth's Greatest Battle) is a 1964 tokusatsu kaiju film produced by Toho Company Ltd., and the fifth installment in the Godzilla series as well as the Showa series. The film was released to Japanese theaters on December 20, 1964.
A princess from Selgina, a small Himalayan country, becomes possessed by the spirit of a Venusian (a Martian in the American version) and escapes a plane just as it explodes. As this happens a meteorite falls from the sky containing King Ghidorah, the monster responsible for her planet's destruction. At the same time, Godzilla and Rodan emerge from hibernation and not only attack Japan, but each other as well. Mothra, along with its twin priestesses, attempt to convince Godzilla and Rodan to stop their fighting each other and to team up to fight the new monster. Meanwhile, the princess is being hunted by a group of assassins, led by Malness, who want to kill her so that her enemies can take over her homeland. Then, just when Malness is about to kill the princess, King Ghidorah crushes him by knocking over a pile of boulders on him. Godzilla, Rodan and Mothra finally drive King Ghidorah off. The movie ends with the princess going back to her home land and Godzilla and Rodan watching Mothra swim back to Infant island.

Things that make you go hmmmm
April 20, 2009 - John Stack
Gov Paterson's poll numbers are now inching towards the 'W' line. While I think a lot of the criticism of him is completely unfounded, his handling of the budget sure shouldn't have made an upswing in popularity. But, in the midst of this, he continues to actually tackle some tough rocks.
Last week, the Gov announced his support for gay marriage in
What will happen if we allow gays to marry? Well, localities will of course make more money on marriage licenses. Same sex couple will be able to have real weddings, and we will all go out and buy presents for them – therefore helping stimulate the economy. People will be more apt to stay in
There is also the only bright spot I have seen in a long time for the North Country representatives and the Republican party in
In a related story, Miss California claims she lost the Miss USA pageant because she expressed her view that she thought gay marriage was wrong. There is a lot of talk on both sides. But, the ones most vicious are those lambasting the judge who asked the question, Perez Hilton. They are saying she can't say what she thinks is right, that this is censorship, etc. She's all ready a celebrity for the 'right'. Thing is, SHE is the only one saying that's why she lost. How about the good old American ideal that if someone is better, its because they are better! She has to blame her loss of the liberal homosexual far left for her loss. She lost because she wasn't who the pageant thought was best. That's it. There aren't special rules for her.
Finally, why should gays be protected from marriage anyway?

Keeping Austin weird may be a motto for the city, and this home's interesting décor confirms the uniqueness of the location while showcasing personal style. Two bedrooms and one bathroom sit in the 1,600 square foot space by KRDB, along with a working art studio to create and display various creations.
Handmade chandeliers, yard sale items, vintage furniture pieces and repurposed unused parts and extras have all been formed and given a new life either in the yard or interior of the home. The interior space is chock-full of art, plants, interesting trinkets and old furniture mixed in with the new and contemporary. An eclectic design that's colorful, functional and representative of Austin makes this such a successful project.

Chicago Public Schools teachers: Monday strike date still on
BY ROSALIND ROSSI AND STEFANO ESPOSITO Staff Reporters September 5, 2012 4:34PM
Chicago Teachers Union President Karen Lewis, talks to reporters Thursday after Chicago Teachers Union House of Delegates unanimously agreed to strike starting Sept 10. August 30 2012. I Scott Stewart~Sun-Times
Updated: October 7, 2012 7:58AM
Chicago Public Schools officials freshened their economic offer to teachers Wednesday but teachers union officials immediately labeled the deal "unacceptable'' and held firm to a Sept. 10 strike date.
CPS didn't budge from its May offer of four years of 2 percent raises, but for the first time it formally dropped the requirement that the fourth-year raise be tied to a form of merit pay and "differentiated compensation,'' Chicago Teachers Union officials said.
"I have some reasonable news: The board has moved off of merit pay,'' CTU President Karen Lewis told reporters after the union's House of Delegates held its monthly meeting. But, Lewis said, "We have some . . . problems we are very concerned about.''
Lewis and CTU Vice President Jesse Sharkey said CPS still wants to stop giving teachers extra pay for extra experience. Such "step'' increases have been a part of the CTU contract since 1967 but are facing increasing scrutiny nationwide.
"Eliminating steps is a big deal,'' Sharkey said. "Proposing to take that away essentially means a first- and a fifth-year teacher are going to be paid the same and we think that's an unacceptable outcome. . . . Teaching is a craft in which gaining experience improves practice.''
Teachers leaving the union's House of Delegates meeting Wednesday evening said a Monday strike date is still on.
"It's basically 'Be ready to strike,' " said Michael Bochner, an art teacher and delegate, "and it's about the logistics, what we will have to do over the weekend, what we will have to do on Monday morning."
Previously, CPS had proposed that CTU members would get a fourth-year raise only if they had agreed to also impose a "differentiated compensation plan'' that year. A joint CPS-CTU committee was supposed to decide how to recognize teachers who took leadership roles in their schools, worked in hard-to-staff schools or subjects, or whose students produced large test score gains, CPS officials have said previously.
However, the latest offer "decoupled'' the fourth year of raises from any differentiated pay plan and merely says the union would agree to sit on a committee that would "discuss different compensation models, including one recently adopted by the City Colleges,'' one CTU official said.
Another small improvement was that only families would have to pay more for health insurance — not couples and families.
Asked for comment, CPS spokeswoman Becky Carroll said by email, "It is unfortunate that the union continues to mischaracterize the proposals made during negotiations. Their insistence on regularly misleading the public and their own membership is appalling and does a disservice to students.''
Carroll did not immediately explain how the union had mischaracterized talks.
Also Wednesday, the CTU filed a charge with the Illinois Educational Labor Relations Board accusing CPS, among other things, of unfairly denying CTU members "step" increases for additional years of experience.
CTU officials contend the board must honor the step increases in the current contract until a new contract replaces it.
The CTU's Carroll called the charge "unnecessary litigation" and said "it is time to put antics aside and negotiate in good faith.''
The CTU also claims CPS has improperly eliminated a longevity sick-leave benefit and improperly implemented new teacher evaluation procedures.
It is seeking an injunction from the Illinois labor board ordering CPS to rescind the changes.

Finding a bottle of wine with full disclosure of an ingredients list on the label may start to be more common in the U.S. On Reserve recently discussed the idea of full ingredients in a prior post, but recent news indicates that a full ingredients list is starting to appear on several wine labels. California Ridge Vineyards's 2011 vintage will contain full disclosure of the wine's ingredients as well as the actions followed to produce the wine. In other words, a food-styled ingredients list is presumed to appear on the labels of Ridge's 2011 release.
As we discussed several weeks ago, wines containing 7% alcohol by volume or greater are not required to disclose ingredients in full. (However, some disclosure, such as "Contains Sulfites," is required.) Wines falling into the 7% alcohol by volume category are regulated by TTB, which presently does not require the ingredients list that we see on many FDA-regulated food products (including low volume alcohol wines). Of course, the wine label ingredient list released by Ridge Vineyards contains some differences from what is generally seen on a food label.
While Ridge is not the first winery to release a full ingredients list on its wines, Dave McIntyre speculates that Ridge might have a greater influence over the industry than current full disclosure labels (including those from Bonny Doon, as here and here, and Shinn Estate, as here and here). But maybe instead of focusing on the—intended or unintentional—industry influence Ridge Vineyards's label may generate, perhaps the proper question is instead as follows: Are we, as consumers, entering a time period where full ingredient disclosure on wine labels is influential to our purchases? Is there ever an instance where it is advantageous for a winemaker to tell a full story on a label?
If ingredient lists are to be used on wine labels going forward, perhaps we will start to see some guidance as to when a winemaker can use terms in the ingredient list and exactly what must be disclosed in an ingredients list.

"Was very happy with the whole process of selection, ordering, review and finished product.

The proof review was very quickly emailed and the shower invitations arrived even sooner than I expected. It was a pleasure."
"Very pretty invitations. I received many compliments. The standard matte paper was a nice weight. I liked the option of changing the edges. They shipped very quickly too. I was very happy with this choice."
"I liked having the product reviewed by one of your professionals and the suggestions that were made. That was very helpful. The invitation was great quality and the printing clear."
"This is the first time I have placed an order for invitations. The representatives who assisted me in the "live chats" were extremely knowledgeable and helpful. The designers fit the wording on my card beautifully. The background color was changed to a light pink, as per my request. Turned out beautifully. I'm already working on the rehearsal dinner invitations to order with Wedding Paper Divas!"
"I sent this for a bridal shower. The Paper Divas are spot on! I worked with them over the phone and they did everything and were constantly scanning for any mistates. This invitation is classy and beautiful. I went for a very soft mute color. Thank you Wedding Paper Divas!"
