Excellent and better choice than the black pin-stripe, which is also listed. It is dark Navy (nearly black) with pin-stripes.
I purchased this suit as a gift, looks and fits great. whould by again
This suit is amazing I wish I could add a picture just so you guys can see how great it looks! The fit is spot on and I didn�t need to use my tailor. Please note this suit is not as baggy as it appears in the advertising/modeling photos. The subtle lines in the fabric really bring out the suit. One last thing to note, the lines in the fabric on this suit is not to be confused with actual pinstripes. Overall I'm truly impressed with the quality and style of this suit, great buy for the price tag!
Well, I retUrned this specific jacket. Iwas shopping for a new jacket for my son, who is tall and triangular-shaped (wide-shoulders and slim waist), so he always needs a slim-fit in jackets. However he had grown out of size 42L so I returned it and got a 44L in the same jacket, and that turned out very nicely although, because of his height, the sleeves were about 1/2 inch short. For reference for other shoppers, my son is 6'5", waist 32", and shoulders 22" across the back..
I was really impressed with the fit of the jacket. Depending on your build, (I am 5'9", 165 lbs), you could probably get away with wearing it off the rack. If you wanted to take it a step further, you could take it in a tiny bit, but it doesn't really need it. The cut is perfect: more modern than a boxy suit, but not so fashion-forward that it would look out of place in a conservative office. I was nervous to buy a suit online, but have been thrilled on my last two. I would advise to buy here, spend a little extra dough on a tailor and get a $1000-looking suit for 1/4 of the price.

How to Make Coppa: Part 2
How to Make Coppa, continued…
Hello friends and welcome back to the wonderful world of salumi and curing coppa! If you don't remember where we left off in our adventure with our good friends Rico and Lola – they were last seen trapped under a brick having the moisture squeezed out of them drop by drop. Please see episode 1 here for all the details…
Escape From the Cure
Episode 2 begins with the stars of show ready to emerge from their trap and to begin the next phase of their metamorphosis into delectable morsels for us to enjoy. As a reminder, we are curing coppa here – that wonderfully marbled, tender meat from the butt (shoulder) of the pig that runs from its neck down to the 4th or 5th rib along the backbone.
The coppa have been on the cure at this point for 2 days under about 8# of weight in the form of cinder block from my garden. I've flipped them after the first day and redistributed the cure at that time. Once I remove the brick, this is how Lola looks:
When we remove the coppa from the bag, you can see the compression of the meat and herbs:
When curing coppa we rinse to remove the rest of the ingredients from the first cure. You can rinse with water and then rub the coppa with dry white wine based on your personal preference. Pat down with paper towels to remove excess moisture once the rinse is complete.
At this stage, the coppa is ready to be seasoned with the second part of the process and stuffed for hanging.
On to the Second Stage
The second stage of the process is performed to remove extra moisture from the coppa, add the aromatics based on your recipe and, most importantly, to deepen the flavors within the meat. There is no need to use extra cure or pink salt at this point as the first salt cure does the job and will adequately prevent bacterial growth on/in the coppa.
You can use a number of flavor combinations in curing your coppa depending on your tastes. In this instance, I've used a tablespoon each of toasted fennel and black pepper for Lola and juniper and black pepper for Rico.
After the aromatics have been applied, it's time to bring out the casing. In this case I've used 5cm beef bung to case each coppa in and have soaked it for about 45 minutes and then rinsed it thoroughly. Typically, these will come packed in salt and can be kept in your refrigerator for 9-12 months if airtight. The salt pack needs to be removed by soaking in luke warm water. I have good a good local source in Oversea Casing here in Seattle but you can also find casings online at merchants such as Butcher and Packer.
Stuffing a large coppa into a smaller beef bung takes work. When doing so, you need to be sure to not stretch the bung too much else it will break.
When you finally finish this process (which can take a bit of time) then you need to make sure that no air bubbles are trapped in the base of the bung. Trapped air can lead to bacterial growth which = bad juju for coppa. Here's a photo of me with the coppa finally nearly stuffed into the base of the bung:
The last step of this process is tying. Here you'll need to use a bubble knot which effectively creates a little air lock between the coppa and the outside world like so:
Now, you're cooking with gas (well, not really but I just like to say that).
Anyway, once you are knotted all up you are ready to go hang this in your drying chamber/wine fridge/basement/garage/man cave. I've always thought it would be cool to have a man cave that you could just walk over, grab a salami hanging from the ceiling, and eat it while cracking open a good bottle from the adjacent wine rack that would be requisite in such a set up.
Hang 'em High
Now that we've gone through the first cure, rubbed our coppa lovingly with aromatics, and given it a nice, cozy new home to dry in; we're ready to hang them. Not every one has a curing room with ideal conditions but if you have a space that stays between 55-65 degrees and 60-70% relative humidity you are in luck. Our basement in Seattle is very close to those ranges so I'm using it for now until I save my pennies and put together a proper curing room.
Before hanging your coppa, make sure to note their weight as you should be targeting about a 30% weight loss to make sure they are 'done'. The time it takes to get there will vary based on temperature, humidity, quality of meat and water content. Here's our lovely Rico and Lola after about 2 weeks of hanging. At this point, they've lost only about 15% of their original weight but have taken on a nice tone as they continue to dry.
After another 2 weeks or so, Rico and Lola are ready to roll. Here they are hanging out with their friend, Rollo the pancetta (more on him later).
Now we're looking at about 25% weight loss – only a few more days to go!
The Reveal
Good things come to those who wait. And in the case of coppa it's no different. After spending about 4.5 weeks in my basement, the coppa reaches its target weight. I decide to sample Rico first.
I'm overwhelmed by the depth of flavor in the coppa. The juniper is well pronounced – perhaps a bit too much but I can scale that back next time. The black pepper is just right. Most importantly, the texture and firmness are spot on. No dreaded case hardening leading to a hard shell and moist interior. The flavors are good but I think Rico could use a bit more time to dry. So, I wrap him in wax paper and pop him into the fridge to slowly age and eat over the next month or so.
What's Next?
After curing coppa, I'm ready to take on some other great salumi. I'm going to try my hand at pancetta tesa (flat) and arrotolata (rolled) as well as guanciale (jowel). I'm also working on several types of sausage which I'll share on here in the near future. Stay tuned for more and be sure to check out my other posts on charcuterie and salumi here!

In fear of looking clueless – question : After drying, is it safe to eat the beef bung as the outer casing? I've looked for this answer, and was hoping you could shed some light on this!
hi – I don't know enough about the subject really, but I think this is a good question. I eat the "skin" of salami which – I'm not sure – is probably also encased in beef bung, or sausage casing as we call it. Jason?
Hi – very nice blog. I'm inspired! And there's plenty of free-range pork around where I live.
However, I thought "butt" was at the other end of the pig (or any animal).
Is this just because I'm South African?
I thought butt was more or less universal
Wow, thanks for the 'journey' type narration. I just butchered my first home-raised pig 3 days ago… and it was a really pleasant adventure. All 260 lbs of it. Next time, I'll be looking for the coppa muscles…

GRAND FORKS, N.D. - A locked out American Crystal Sugar union worker is accused of lying about an incident involving a replacement worker at the Hillsboro plant.
The Grand Forks Herald reports (http://bit.ly/IxPoOp) Scott Ripplinger of Manvel told a deputy that the replacement worker drove a van through a crowd of picketers at a high speed, nearly running him over. The Traill County Sheriff's Office report says the van was driving slowly through the crowd and that Ripplinger jumped on the hood.
Ripplinger faces misdemeanor charges of disorderly conduct and giving false information to police. He did not immediately respond to an Associated Press request for comment.
Two other union workers have been charged with crimes during the lockout that began last August over a contract dispute, for allegedly spitting on and keying a vehicle.

The Little Book (Paperback)
Indie Next ListAugust 2008
Incorporating time travel and historical fiction with a life-altering love story, Selden Edwards' The Little Book magically weaves a believable tale of one family's multigenerational visit to 1897 Vienna. You will want to read this one slowly, savoring every elegantly crafted sentence. -- Kathleen Caldwell, A Great Good Place for Books, Oakland, CA
Thirty years in the writing, Selden Edwards' dazzling first novel is an irresistible triumph of the imagination. Wheeler Burden-banking heir, philosopher, student of history, legend's son, rock idol, writer, lover, recluse, half-Jew, and Harvard baseball hero-one day finds himself wandering not in his hometown of San Francisco in 1988 but in a city and time he knows mysteriously well: Vienna, 1897. Before long, Wheeler acquires a mentor in Sigmund Freud, a bitter rival, a powerful crush on a luminous young woman, and encounters everyone from an eight-year-old Adolf Hitler to Mark Twain as well as the young members of his own family. Solving the riddle of Wheeler's dislocation in time will ultimately reveal nothing short of one eccentric family's unrivaled impact upon the course of human history.
Edwards, author of The Lost Prince, brilliantly weaves romance, art, history, and culture in this unforgettable and dazzling debut novel.
About the Author
Selden Edwards began writing The Little Book as a young English teacher in 1974, and continued to layer and refine the manuscript until its completion in 2007. He most recently authored The Lost Prince. He spent his career as headmaster at several independent schools across the country, and for over forty years has been secretary of his class at Princeton, where he also played basketball. He lives in Santa Barbara, California.
Praise for The Little Book…
"A soaring thing of joy whose only purpose-and I mean this as a compliment-is to delight and entertain."
-Maureen Corrigan, Fresh Air
"Delightfully mad. . .a thrilling adventure."
-San Francisco Chronicle
"The product of a writer in full command of his gifts."
-Louisville Courier-Journal
"A wide-ranging novel of grand ideas. . .a graceful waltz of a book, spinning at times at dizzying speed, but leaving behind a haunting, unforgettable melody."
-New Orleans Times-Picayune
"Back to the Future for the intellectual set."
-Entertainment Weekly
"Inventive, bracing, poignant and well written. . . it should be at the top of everyone's summer reading list."
-Tucson Citizen
"It's hard not to be thoroughly taken with such an approach to both the real and imagined past."
-New York Daily News
"Required reading."
-New York Post

**** about African-Americans working against oppression by establishing a uniquely black identity in music and literature. How about the Irish National Theater in Dublin, using its plays by Yeats and Synge to speak out against English oppression, or the writers and teachers like Patrick Pearse who took over several government buildings in the Easter Rising of 1916 and declared Ireland a free Republic? Maybe you've never heard of any of these people. Maybe you're an ignorant cunt.

Oct. 31 (Bloomberg) -- South Korea's won completed its biggest monthly advance since April 2009, supported by upbeat economic data and European efforts to resolve a debt crisis.
The currency climbed to a six-week high today, before retreating as Japanese intervention to weaken the yen sparked concern Korean policy makers may seek to combat won gains, according to Hwang Sun Min, Seoul-based dealer at Kookmin Bank. A government report today showed industrial output unexpectedly grew in September, while data earlier this month showed exports rose more than economists forecast and the current-account surplus was the second highest in 2011.
"Exporters have been faring well, providing a buffer to slowing demand at home," said Kim Sung Soon, Seoul-based chief dealer at state-run Industrial Bank of Korea. "The won has been gaining upward momentum as Europe's crisis showing signs of abating."
The won rose 6.1 percent this month to close at 1,110.21 per dollar in Seoul, according to data compiled by Bloomberg. It fell 0.5 percent today after touching 1,100.05, the strongest level since Sept. 16 earlier. The currency, Asia's best performer in October, slumped 9.5 percent in September as Europe's debt crisis fueled demand for dollars.
Euro-region leaders agreed last week to expand a bailout fund to $1.4 trillion and persuaded bondholders to take 50 percent losses on Greek debt.
'Outright Bullish'
The yen weakened against more than 150 currencies tracked by Bloomberg as Japanese Finance Minister Jun Azumi said that he ordered the intervention because "speculative moves" in the currency failed to reflect Japan's economic fundamentals.
South Korea's industrial output gained 1.1 percent last month from August, when it decreased 1.9 percent, Statistics Korea said today. Economists expected a 0.4 percent drop, based on the median estimate in a Bloomberg survey. The current- account surplus jumped to $3.1 billion last month from $293 million in August, the central bank said on Oct. 28. Exports rose 19 percent from a year earlier and the jobless rate was 3.2 percent, earlier reports showed.
Skandinaviska Enskilda Banken AB said it is "outright bullish" on Asian currencies including the won, Singapore dollar and Indonesian rupiah for the final quarter of 2011 and the first quarter of 2012.
"Current-account surpluses are already starting to rise in Korea and we expect China, Indonesia and Singapore," Sailesh K. Jha, Singapore-based head of Asia strategy at SEB, wrote in a report on Oct. 28. "What is more encouraging for Asian markets is that the U.S. and Japan economic recovery is continuing and getting more fully entrenched."
South Korea's benchmark five-year bonds advanced today, with the yield on the 3.5 percent notes due September 2016 sliding seven basis points to 3.62 percent, Korea Exchange Inc. prices show. The rate declined three basis points, or 0.03 percentage point, this month.

Address: 2902 E. Shea Blvd., Phoenix; Records: Paradise Valley 4-4, 1-2; Shadow Mountain 1-7, 1-2; Gametime: 7:00 p.m.
A 4-4 mark is a far cry from where Paradise Valley was a year ago at this point, riding a nine games into a 10-0 regular season and No. 1 seed in the 5A state playoffs. But Trojan coach Donnie Yantis will take where he's at right now, at .500 and firmly entrenched in the 5A-II playoffs.
Class 5A-II opponent beware: The Trojans currently sit sixth, with its four losses to teams posting a combined record of 21-2.
Michael Williams still provides the speed in the backfield for the Trojans, but fullback Tomarcus Jordan had his best game of the season against Desert Mountain last week, rushing for 152 yards on 19 carries. An early season hip flexor slowed Jordan early on.

We've all done it—grazed through our Facebook news feed and updates, and impulsively hit "like."
But beyond the fact that it's so easy to use, what exactly is it that we find so irresistible about this tiny, seemingly innocuous function? And why are we so compelled to like people, updates, and media online?
According to Facebook's Help Center, a like is "a way to give positive feedback or to connect with people you care about." The giant recently released statistics indicating that over 65 million users like things daily, and although it's generally more popular among younger users, people of all ages seem to enjoy pressing the like button.
The fact that it's such a popular element of the platform's functionality goes a long way in showing how important it is, both for the people sending it, and those of us receiving it.
What lies behind our obsession with like?

Tollens' reagent
Tollens' reagent is a chemical reagent most commonly used to determine whether a known carbonyl-containing compound is an aldehyde or alpha-hydroxy ketone. It is usually ammoniacal silver nitrate, but can also be other mixtures, as long as aqueous diamminesilver(I) complex is present. It was named after its discoverer, the German chemist Bernhard Tollens.
A positive test with Tollens' reagent results in elemental silver precipitating out of solution, occasionally onto the inner surface of the reaction vessel, producing a characteristic and memorable "silver mirror" on the inner vessel surface.
Aldehydes will be positive in Tollens' test and a mirror-like material will be formed.
Laboratory preparation[edit]
This reagent is not commercially available due to its short shelf life; it must be freshly prepared in the laboratory. One common preparation involves two steps. First a few drops of dilute sodium hydroxide are added to some aqueous silver nitrate. In this solution, the Ag+ ions from the aqueous silver nitrate exist in a hydrated form as [Ag(H2O)4]+ complexes, i.e. tetraaquasilver(I) ion. The OH- ions from the sodium hydroxide react with the Ag+ ions to give silver oxide, Ag2O. This is insoluble, and precipitates out of the solution as a brown solid. Aqueous sodium nitrate is also produced in the mixture as a by-product. This then creates:
- 2 AgNO3 (aq) + 2 NaOH (aq) → Ag2O (s) + 2 NaNO3 (aq) + H2O (l)
In the next step, aqueous ammonia is added until all of the brown silver(I) oxide is dissolved. At this point the mixture will be clear, and there are now aqueous silver ions existing as [Ag(NH3)2]+ complexes in the mixture, which is the main component of Tollens' reagent. Sodium hydroxide is reformed at the end of the preparation.
- Ag2O (s) + 4 NH3 (aq) + 2 NaNO3 (aq) + H2O (l) → 2 [Ag(NH3)2]NO3 (aq) + 2 NaOH (aq)
Alternatively, aqueous ammonia can be added in a continuous fashion directly to silver nitrate solution.[1] At first, silver oxide will be formed and precipitate out, but as more ammonia solution is added the precipitate dissolves and the solution becomes clear as diamminesilver(I) is formed. At this point the addition of the ammonia should be stopped. This may be a preferable method as fewer reagents are involved. Filtering the reagent before use helps to prevent false-positive results.
Analytical uses[edit]
Once it has been ascertained that there is a carbonyl group on an organic molecule using 2,4-dinitrophenylhydrazine (also known as Brady's reagent or 2,4-DNPH), Tollens' reagent can be used to determine whether the compound is a ketone or an aldehyde. Importantly, there is a special case in which Tollens' reagent will give a positive for a ketone; if the ketone is an alpha-hydroxy ketone, then the Tollens' reagent will react.
The test rests on the premise that aldehydes are more readily oxidised compared with ketones; this is due to the carbonyl-containing carbon in aldehydes having an attached hydrogen. The diamminesilver(I) complex in the mixture is an oxidizing agent and is the essential reactant in Tollens' reagent. The test is generally carried out in a test tube in a warm water bath.
In a positive test, the diamminesilver(I) complex oxidizes the aldehyde to a carboxylate ion and in the process is reduced to elemental silver and aqueous ammonia. The elemental silver precipitates out of solution, occasionally onto the inner surface of the reaction vessel, giving a characteristic "silver mirror". The carboxylate ion on acidification will give its corresponding carboxylic acid. The carboxylic acid is not directly formed in the first place as the reaction takes place under alkaline conditions. The ionic equations for the overall reaction are shown below; R refers to an alkyl group.[2]
- [Ag(NH3)2]+ (aq) + e− → Ag (s) + 2 NH3 (aq)
- RCHO (aq) + 3 OH− → RCOO− + 2 H2O + 2 e−
The negative result for the test is no precipitate of silver formed when the carbonyl to be tested is added. A ketone will give a negative result because it cannot be oxidized easily. A ketone has no available hydrogen atom attached to the carbonyl carbon, meaning it cannot be so easily oxidized – unlike an aldehyde, which has this hydrogen atom.
Tollens' reagent is also a test for alkynes with a triple bond in the 1-position. A yellow precipitate of the metal acetylide is formed in this case.
Both Tollens' reagent and Fehling's reagent also give positive results with formic acid (methanoic acid – HCOOH), which is fully oxidised to water and carbon dioxide.
In anatomic pathology, ammoniacal silver nitrate is used in the Fontana-Masson Stain, which is a silver stain technique used to detect melanin, argentaffin and lipofuscin in tissue sections. Melanin and the other chromaffins reduce the silver nitrate to metallic silver.[1]
In silver mirroring[edit]
Tollens' reagent is also used to apply a silver mirror to glassware; for example the inside of an insulated vacuum flask. Around 500 mL of solution is prepared, much more than would be made for analytical use. This is then introduced to the clean glass surface which is to be mirrored and the solution reduced using a glucose solution. For a high quality finish the glass surface is cleaned using an oxidizing acid to remove all traces of organic compounds and the glass surface is pretreated with aqueous tin(II) chloride.[3]
The reagent should be freshly prepared and stored refrigerated in a dark glass container. It has an approximate shelf-life of 24 hours when stored in this way.[1] After the test has been performed, the resulting mixture should be acidified with dilute acid before disposal. These precautions are to prevent the formation of the highly explosive silver nitride.[4]
Tollens' test for pentoses[edit]
This other test relies on reaction of the furfural with phloroglucinol to produce a colored compound with high molar absorptivity.[5]

Sound off
Millennials, You Have My Attention: Now Help Innovate for Social Purpose
Here is what I know about you from a great piece by Dan Schwabel entitled "74 Of The Most Interesting Facts About The Millennial Generation":
81% have donated money, goods or services. [Walden University and Harris Interactive]
On track to become the most educated generation in American history. [Pew Research]
61% of millennials are worried about the state of the world and feel personally responsible to make a difference. [Huffington Post]
By next year (2014), millennials will account for 36% of the U.S. workforce and by 2025, they will account for 75% of the global workplace. [U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics / The Business and Professional Women's Foundation]
As a GenXer, I love your energy and innovation. I don't always agree with everything you are doing and sometimes, I plain don't understand, but I am trying to comprehend and I want to work with you. I am energized by your spirit. And in talking to colleagues who work full-time in the social purpose sector, there are a lot of us who want to work with you to make a difference in the world and explore new ways of thinking. I will warn you, though, there are a few die-hards who are happy with the status quo and do not really want to hear what you are saying or proposing (although they may pretend to be listening) because you are "so young". Don't let that deter you because we were all there once. And the world is richer for those of us who can accept a diversity of thought and opinion in the exchange of ideas about how to make things better.
So, since 81% of you have donated to a cause, 61% of you are worried about the world and 84% of you want to make a positive difference in the world, would you please join forces with those of us who are Baby Boomers and GenXers to help resolve the intractable issues our world faces with regard to the environment, health, poverty, education, human and equality rights for one and all, etc?
I am talking about working with and in the social purpose sector (ie. non-profits/NGOs). I am talking about the good and great charities around the globe that need to have your input in order to grow to scale, get brought up to speed on technology, innovate and create in order to have a greater impact in their mission. Please, if you have not already become involved, do so. I have always thought experience and youth made for a forceful combination, so long as different generations and individuals were open to working with each other, without ego, to earnestly solve issues that will only make for a better place for every living thing on earth. Isn't that what we should aspire to as individuals – to make a meaningful difference?
Millennials, I have been having debates these past few weeks with folks who work in charities around the world and to a certain extent there is frustration because when you get older you will find that time is getting shorter and it is very precious and there is still so much work to be done. During the course of the 20 years I have been in the business, I have seen a great and earnest desire by many – although by no means from all – to end the status quo when something is not working. But, change is not something that often comes easy and sometimes people fear the unknown and prefer to stick with what they know. Many of us believe, however, that is not good enough. As a friend wrote to me recently, "If anything is certain, it is that change is certain. The world we are planning for today will not exist in this form tomorrow."
So, please continue to take a look at the world around you and know this, you have a generation (tentatively called Generation Z, although that is probably up for grabs and will change once some creative journalist figures out a catchy name) growing up right behind you who will upset the apple cart that you have built and believe as "truth" in your mind. Don't wait for tomorrow to start making the change and helping those who have come before you to improve the lives of everyone and everything on this planet.
How? You can start with a local shelter, school, food bank, church or hospital, for example. One of my favorites is DoSomething.org. On their website, they state, they are, "The largest org for young people and social change, our 2.5 million members tackle campaigns that impact every cause, from poverty to violence to the environment to literally everything else. Any cause, anytime, anywhere." In their own words, they want to, "Make the world suck less".
And, if you want to shorten the learning curve and are ever interested in knowing some of the opportunities and challenges I have seen within the non-profit/NGO sector, please feel free to drop me a line at @LNSpencer. In the meantime, I will continue to write my thoughts about improving the charitable sector so we move beyond the "tin cup" mentality that oftentimes seems to exist and I look forward to hearing about your experiences and thoughts on making a positive difference in the world.

Animal Bite Laws are created at the state level, through statutes and common law, so they vary across the U.S. These laws help to determine if a pet owner is liable when his/her animal bites someone. When a person is injured by an animal bite, the bite victim may sue the animal's owner or another responsible party for damages, under Personal Injury Tort Laws.
Other parties that can also be held liable for damages caused by an animal bite include: animal keepers, who are responsible for the care and custody of an animal, such as a kennel, pound or animal sitter; property owners, when they have allowed the animal on their property; landlords, if they knew that their tenant owned a dangerous animal; and parents of minors who owned the animal or behaved negligently with an animal which led to injury.
Most states impose strict liability laws with regard to animal owners. This means that an animal owner is legally responsible for his/her animal biting, regardless of whether the owner showed actual negligence or fault. In these states, if the animal injures a person, the owner will be liable for any damages the person suffers as a result of the dog bite, even if the animal had never shown vicious tendencies before, or the owner had no knowledge of these tendencies.
The only defense the animal owner may have in these cases is intentional provocation of the animal by the victim, which means inciting, encouraging, or provoking the animal to bite. Additionally, law enforcement agencies that use dogs in the apprehension of criminal suspects may be exempt from liability.
In other states, the owner's liability is dependent upon his/her knowledge of the animal's dangerous or vicious propensities. If the victim can show that the owner had knowledge that the animal was dangerous and could injure someone, the owner may be liable for damages when his/her animal causes injury to someone. However, if the animal owner adequately warned others of the dangerousness of the animal and took the proper measures to keep the animal from others, there may be no liability, due to contributory negligence. This means the victim contributed to his own injury by failing to exercise reasonable care and knowingly taking the risk of being injured by the animal.
The damages that can be recovered in a successful animal bite claim include medical expenses, lost wages, pain and suffering, and property damages. Although it is sometimes possible to recover punitive damages, but to do so it must be shown that the responsible party was not merely negligent, but was actually reckless or intentionally incited the injury.

- What to do in the Case of a Dog AttackWhile dog bites are fairly common, unprovoked dog attacks are not. However, as we recently saw in the viral video of a cat saving a human child from an attacking dog, they do occur. Therefore, it is important that you know what to do in case of a dog attack. These tips can help you rectify a situation with a potentially dangerous animal.

Whether it was a baby duckling, a squirrel, a raccoon, or even a bear cub, there are laws affecting raising wild animals.

- Who is Liable for Animal Bites by Wild Animals?In virtually every jurisdiction, the owner of an animal will be responsible if it injures someone, whether that animal is a pet, a service animal, or on display, such as at a zoo or exhibition.

The government?
- When the Bite's Worse Than the BarkAn estimated 2 million attacks occur each year with only 800,000 documented.

- Biting Back After a Dog Bites YouIt is a common topic on the local news, and every year, thousands of Americans are bitten by animals. More often than not, these animals are dogs.

It is a good apartment, the bedrooms are large and there are enough closets. The staff are nice and polite and Read More the management is helpful. The only thing that caused me to give it 4 stars and not 5, is that it is sooo old the cabinets are old and the kitchen is very small. The rent is very expensive for such an old apartment. The heating does not work because the appliances are old too, so you might have it at 80 degrees while it is actually less than 70.

Newsday | Mass bikers facing arrest
New York City police have declared any gathering greater than 50 people a parade, and are threatening to arrest riders at tonight's Critical Mass if they participate without a permit.
Critical Mass is a monthly ride with no formal organization, where riders try to demonstrate that bicycles have a place on the roads by swarming one area of a city. The New York City ride, which starts at Union Square, has been targeted by police in the past, particularly during the Republican National Convention in 2004, and in January 2006, Judge Gerald Harris ruled that Critical Mass did not require a permit.

I am absolutely a woman stuck in an icky male body. But, that is so not all there is to me. I feel that I am smart, with an eclectic sense of humor, and I am about equally scientific & logical and intuitive & emotional. I am naturally extremely curious about everything; I catch myself thinking "how" or "why" about all kinds of things, so I just have to go look up the answers. I believe very strongly in kindness, and I always do my best to have others' best interest at heart. I am passionate about fairness and equity, and in allowing others to do whatever they wish, as long as it affects only them. I believe in striving to not be offended, because offense is a tool that only serves to drive people apart.
