The Silver Dollar - Priority Seating
Online Reservations
This is a converted fire house. They can change the room temp by raising or closing the firehouse doors. The whisky list (served by the glass in generous portions) is extensive and varied. All Western Hemisphere, though so no Scotch or Irish. The tequila list is also quite long. Food is country western style with a twist. The Chicken and Waffles are a specialty of the house. The person in our group who tried them described them as very good. All the dishes were cooked with a little something to "kick it up a notch". No 3 alarm stuff, but definitely spicy. We found it interesting that we were not asked about dessert. Not a big issue here. In fact I don't remember seeing any offered on the menu.
Would have given a 5 star rating had the egg whites of my eggs been cooked longer. They were a little clear and runny for me. Other than that the flavor was excellent. Service cheerful, helpful and friendly.
Bartender was knowledgeable. Hostess was accomodating and server was friendly and engaging. I will definitely return.
Have been there several times and always enjoy the evening. Great (fried!) food, good drinks and pleasant, efficient servers. My out-of-town guests loved it.
The noise level is not only deafening, it's painful. We could not speak to the person sitting opposite us. But, we were sp busy enjoying the food, it hardly mattered. They have an incredible list of bourbons -- reasonably priced. It's the place to go if you have nothing to say but you're hungry alcoholic.
First time there and we loved it. Awesome staff and good food. Can't wait to go back.
This old firehouse has been saved and put to a higher use. It has become a great place for neighbors and friends from farther away to convene for wonderful food, great bar service and excellent service. Our priority seating allowed us to be seated immediately and our server, Mara, arrived instantly to get us started. Once all of our party arrived, it was game on. Mara and her colleagues helped us understand the finer points of the menu and got our orders (no easy task with this group!). While the noise level is high, (did I mention it was loud?) we had great conversation and enjoyed the people at surrounding tables. The dinners came and were quickly devoured. The price was right!. We had a great time and look forward to our next visit!
Good bourbon list - waiter was knowledgable and passionate about it. Good food - love the chicken thighs and native Texan dining compaction gave the chili and the brisket two thumbs up. Good ambiance - fun, funky, and loud enough to block the chatter from the kids that were at our table. Good service - waiter was awesome. What would I change? Our party was sitting at the big table just inside the back door. I am not sure where the outdoor smoking area is, but I would definitely move it. At one point, the smell was so strong, I had to look I see that no one was smoking inside. Pretty gross when you are trying to eat.
Great staff, fabulous food, love the onion rings and overall a super experience.
A+ in all areas except one, NOISE. I loved the place and everything about it except it's way too loud. When I have to shout to be heard by the person across the table it's too loud. This problem is not limited to this restaurant but has become prevalent in several places I like. My hearing is fine and everyone I take here says the same thing about the noise.
Great place to kick back and relax after a hard week at work. Good happy hour stop as well. Informal with decent, although not great, food. Prices reasonable.
This neighborhood gem housed in an old fire station is open and inviting. The bar features more beers than I knew existed and the servers know their beers. The menu is small but select and the food is flavorful and fun. Outside seating is available for nice weather. The noise level can get "energetic" so if you want to go for conversation sit outside or pick a time when the crowds are ot too great.
We broke down and tried this restaurant again after a bad experience. We are glad we did. Our food was great and overall experience much better!
Two-tops not large enough to hold all drinks, food servings, etc.....booths not available for parties of two
Had a great time. Food was good and service was excellent. If we lived in Louisville we'd go back on a regular basis.
Our group enjoyed brunch so much that we returned for dinner. Given that we were only in Louisville for three days and we are all nearly obsessed with trying new places, that really says a lot about the restaurant! Our group of eight shared bites of our food with each other and every dish was better than the last. The staff was very accommodating when it came to a gluten allergy within our group. In fact, the service was outstanding in every way. The food, drinks, dessert, service and atmosphere were remarkable.
One of the best brunch spots in Louisville, if not the best. My party of four sat outside and started with mimosas and the chilaquiles verdes, which were both excellent. I highly recommend splitting the chilaquiles verdes, as we all agreed that they were too heavy for a single entree. I had the cornbread pancakes, which were hands down the best pancakes I've had in Louisville. My friend ordered the shrimp & grits, which I was fortunate enough to grab a bite of -- I look forward to ordering these next time, they were awesome!
From the building (an old fire station) to the decor, to the bourbon list, the server, and the food best dining experience in a while. With the front door open the ambiance was uber cool. The first bite of our food caused a physical OMG reaction, could have been my taste buds having a party from what they just sampled! I had the short ribs and my wife had the pan seared trout (also incredible). A must experience restaurant if you have never been.
The food is great, service always friendly, cocktails on point, and they spin real vinyl. Atmosphere is lively and everyone seems to enjoy themselves here. Don't overlook brunch — one of my favorites in town.
Everything was outstanding, ambience, service, food. The only thing that wasn't totally perfect was that the beef brisket was somewhat dry. Although the flavor was good.
Went there to meet a friend from out of town and it was a very energetic, fun spot! Love their specialty drinks as well as great tequila and bourbon options!
We can't wait to go back. We were on our way to a bourbon class, so we just ate a few appetizers. They were all good. Especially, the fried oysters. The brunch menu looks great. We will try it soon. We heard they do bourbon tastings, so we are interested in that, along with trying their other menu options. The restaurant just has a fun vibe. I can't believe we have missed it on the trolley hops. Very friendly staff.
Our marketing team recently had an awesome experience at The Silver Dollar. I used Open Table to secure seating for 12 and when we arrived, the staff had two tables ready for us. One outside, one indide - given the nice weather recently, we chose outside. Although our waiter, Brian, had only been at SD 1 1/2 months, he did an outstanding job in his recommendations on cocktails, food and service. Nice job! In regards to the menu and drink specialties, we must have tried at least one of everything on the menu. They were all on point, we were not disapointed. I definitely recommend The Silver Dollar for group outings, friend gatherings and even relaxed dates. We liked it so much, we bought the t-shirt!
We had a group of 7 ladies for dinner. Our server was great and very knowledgeable. Some of the dishes were priced a little high for what you got but the food was delicious. Didn't like that the sides were a la carte. For the price of the entrée it should be included with the entrée. Other than that it was a great time!
Silver Dollar is a great local spot featuring filling and flavorful food. The service is always excellent - wait staff is extremely knowledgeable of not only the food, but also drink options. The handmade cocktails here are some of the best and most creative in town.
The food was amazing - everyone at the table ended up sharing and we all loved the dishes. Our waitress was great, she was able to give suggestions on what to try and adequate descriptions of each...beyond what was written on the menu. I will definitely return to dine here!
We loved the food and had very good service. We will be coming back!
Always, great! Highly recommend the collard greens, Chirizo Corndog, Country Fried Steak! Love the atmosphere!
I brought my college friends from NY Kansas City and Chicago for brunch. They loved the Old Fire House Setting, the records (we graduated in '73) and they thought the brunch menu was fun and delicious. We made a reservation for 10:30 am on a Sunday because I heard it got really crowded. It was not necessary. We sat in the booth by the open door which buffered the noise. We ordered all the Mexican dishes and did some sharing.
The food is good, chicken thighs are excellent if you like spicy and the fried oysters are very good. $3 shot of the day is a hit and the place is a lot of fun
Fried oysters were excellent as usual! Service is always fantastic and super friendly, well done!
The food at Silver Dollar was good and moderately priced. They have a great bar menu that is unique. I love the neighborhood feel of the restaurant and the open air dining. The only reson I gave the food a 4 was because the brisket which is a signature dish was alittle on the dry side but everything else we ordered was great. The best part of our evening was the service. Service is clearly a team effort and we were well taken care of from start to finish. Our waitress Robin had a great sense of humor and spent alot of time with us even though the place was getting increasingly busier as the night went on.
Took some friends from out of town here. As usual the food was delicious, service was great and the drinks outstanding. They make their own mixers, which makes the whiskey sours and margaritas unique. Had the brisket and flat iron steak. One of our favorite spots.
The Silver Dollar is a top pick in Louisville! Atmosphere, food, service, bar, all of it is amazing! The desserts are to die for, too!
We went for the fried okra, whiskey, and atmosphere. We were blown away by the rainbow trout and garlic shrimp! This seafood was artistically prepared, better than the majority of seafood restaurants we've visited. Definitely will return to this new favorite!
Lots of good comfort food. We enjoyed the chili, short ribs, and oyster appetizer. The Sazerac cocktails were as good as the ones in New Orleans. The waiter was adorable and ingratiating. Only down side was the exceedingly loud music. If I can't converse with the person across the table the music is too loud.
I recently attended Silver Dollar with several of my girlfriends to celebrate my birthday. We had heard mostly good things but one bad review about how it wasn't fit for our "occasion". They were wrong. Our waiter was exceptional but gave us quite a lengthy schpeel about their drinks in particular. When he was finished, he acknowledged how much information he shared and gave us a fair amount of time to digest and make some decisions. Their beer selection is exceptional and I must recommend the "Oh Fallon Pumpkin". Their onion rings are fabulous and we ordered burgers, salads, and the item with meat over potatoes and everyone was beyond satisfied. We raved throughout our meal. Great place. Two thumbs up.
Jessica our waitress was awesome. Only thing was wish you had some Oregon beers on the menu.
Silver Dollar doesn't disappoint...the first time or the fiftieth time. Food and service are consistent. Our waiter was knowledgable of their extensive bourbon list AND awesome with our kids, both of which are very important to us. We will continue to return.
love this place. I had the greatest brisket in my life. great bourbon list as well.
There are lots of places in the city where one can get a good cocktail, but few have the consistent quality of those offered by the Silver Dollar. The food is incredible, make no mistake, but I love that they've got the drinks to match.
We did the priority seating at Silver Dollar. Most people appear to have also done so. It puts you at the top of the list. They also take reservations but we were unable to get one at the time we needed. We had to wait about 10 minutes or so. Unfortunately there is not a lot of space for people to wait. We ended up eating outside. We were under a heater so it was pleasant. Not nearly as noisy outside.Our server seemed to be a bit frazzled and another waitress ended up taking our order. Food was good. My husband had the barbecue chicken and I had the chicken and waffles. Fun spot for a Saturday evening dinner.
We brought a client there for dinner and had a wonderful time. The service and food were excellent. Also really liked the beer list. Everyone seemed to pitch in to keep our table clean and our drinks filled. I've already recommended The Silver Dollar to friends.
First time at this restaurant. Food was excellent as were cocktails. Thoroughly enjoyed the visit.
When I made the reservation, I requested window seating. But when we arrived and told them we had a reservation, the hostess lead us past an open window table to a booth with almost no natural light. In short, it was a waste of my time to make the reservation.
Oh happy accident... Planned a girls night out and Silver Dollar was suggested and it just so happened to be their 2nd birthday! Free shots and birthday cake. Food was fabulous, not just what I ordered either... I know because we all shared bites with each other. Only down side was it was pretty loud and server was a bit scattered given the crowd. We did use the priority seating and my party of 7 were seated right away!
Silver Dollar still knocks it out of the park, with their great cocktails, atmosphere, and energy two years after they first opened shop!
Just so happened to be their birthday the night we were there. Haven't had that much fun in a while! Bourbon shots on the table for every guest, 2 birthday toasts from the owner and bartender followed by a slice of cake (again, for every guest) Our dinner was amazing as well! Love that place.
I have always had a great experience at the Silver Dollar. The food is amazing and hey are implementing a new menu Dec 4. Can't wait to try the new items
I was in town on business and found the restaurant online. It looked like a good alternative to the typical customer dinner locations. There was a meeting of the young marketing professionals group going on so it was very loud. I would guess this is not a common issue. The food was great and we enjoyed the evening.

No surprise here. This sequester must go into effect as it is the only actual reduction in spending we are going to see this year.
The smartest thing the repubs could do is nothing. Let the cuts take effect. Stand up and say its the only way to start the process of cutting back.Pin it on zippy since its his.Otherwise, they´ll be rolled again.
Scare tactics. That´s all the democ rats know. Unfortunately they really do scare the lofo voters and always seem to win.
The key is for the Republicans to keep repeating that if Obama thinks sequestration is such a bad idea, why did he suggest it in the first place?
Let it happen. The cuts are so small the government will adapt (as every other organization does when they must balance their budgets). This is the continuing con job of Obama, Democrats and all Rino´s.
Oh, I forgot, there is another point to be made. Republicans need to ask in a government the size of ours, how come the only cuts Obama can come up with are to necessary services? They need to list some of the things that Obama isn´t cutting and ask if people really believe that those are more important than first responders (or whatever area Obama is claiming will be hurt by sequestration).
The sequester will not, I repeat, will NOT, go into effect.Your wishy-washy, spineless, unmotivated and foolish republican politicians will ride in to save the day for their president, whom they adore, since they do everything he asks, no, ORDERS them to do.
I agree with #9, Our Whiny House Speaker will again pull Our Dear Reader back from the precipice, and ´save´ his hide...And to think I voted for the Speaker!
As usual, Obama tries to blame others for the failure of his own policies.Obama wanted the sequester, Obama requested the sequester, Obama got his sequester. NOW he OPPOSES the sequester?Where IS Obama´s plan to make meaningful cuts in federal spending, INCLUDING entitlement reform? He has had over 4 years and all of the resources of the Executive Branch to develop and present a detailed, written plan and, as usual, he has FAILED.
0bama threatened the Republicans with sequester; it was his idea. He got the tax increase on the rich, however, his friends like Facebook and GE will pay no taxes at all, and actually Facebook gets millions back (after having paid NO taxes). 0bama refuses to deal with the deficit, he refuses to come up with a budget, he keeps spending which increases our unsustainable debt, and now he wants to "press" the GOP on a sequester deal. What is wrong with this man? He just got back from a million dollar vacation; you would think he could come up with something better than pressing the GOP.
#7 has a very good point. The sequester is an across the board reduction in growth. So no one will miss out on Head Start or school lunches.
I am fed up with Obama emergencies and deadlines. Let the world end, but don´t give Obama any more money, take back the money you have given.
Keep in mind the old truism, "In any deal with the Devil, you´re always the junior partner."

A missing 5-year-old Fayetteville girl was seen with a man at a Sanford hotel early Tuesday, less than an hour before she was reported missing by her mother.
Fayetteville police said they are looking for the man who was captured on surveillance video at the hotel with 5-year-old Shaniya Davis. The man is identified as 29-year-old Mario Andrette McNeill, police said.
Shaniya's father, Bradley Lockhart, pleaded with McNeill to take his daughter to the nearest law enforcement center Thursday night. Lockhart was speaking at a press conference at the Fayetteville Police Department.
"Don't give up honey, don't give up," Lockhart offered to his daughter while choking back tears.
The hotel video was taken at 6:11 a.m. Tuesday. The girl's mother, Antoinette Davis, reported Shaniya missing at 6:53 a.m.
Video surveillance from the hotel video cameras shows McNeill holding Davis in his arms waiting for the elevator.
Police said McNeill has a criminal history but none of it involves children.
Another man, 30-year-old Clarence Darriel Coe, was charged late Wednesday with first-degree kidnapping. Police say a neighbor of Shaniya 's at the Sleepy Hollow Mobile Home Park saw Coe drive away with the girl. The park is off Murchison Road.
A police spokeswoman said Thursday the kidnapping wasn't "a random incident," but investigators haven't revealed any relationship between the girl's family and Coe.
Coe appeared Thursday before a judge, who left his bail at $100,000. Coe stood with his head tilted to one side, shifting his weight back and forth and fidgeting as Cumberland County District Court Judge Tal Baggett asked several questions.
Baggett asked Coe if he understood that he is charged with kidnapping Shaniya Davis and "terrorizing" the girl's mother, Antoinette Davis, and that he could be sentenced to up to 21 years in prison.
Baggett set Coe's next court appearance for Dec. 2.
"I'm good with that," said Coe, who lives on the 200 block of Brookwood Avenue.
Barbara Davenport, who manages the mobile home park off Murchison Road, said Coe is the boyfriend of Shaniya 's mother. Police wouldn't comment on any relationship except "it's safe to say it's not a random incident," according to police spokeswoman Theresa Chance.
Police have said the girl was last seen early Tuesday at her home.
"We know right now he (Coe) drove a vehicle with Shaniya inside, out of the park," Chance said.
Police have continued the search for Shaniya , Chance said. They searched a rock quarry that borders the mobile home park and a swampy area behind it, Chance said. On Wednesday, police said they found a blanket that belongs to Shaniya in a neighbor's trash can.
"We're hoping she's alive," Chance said.
Coe was a "person of interest" early in the investigation, Chance said. According to the state Department of Correction's Web site, Coe's record includes several charges of break-ins in recent years, and he served several months in prison this year.
Davenport, the trailer park manager, said Shaniya 's mother had applied to live in the park in August but was turned down because she had prior evictions. Antoinette Davis' sister, Brenda Davis, rents a home in the park, Davenport said. Antoinette Davis moved in with her sister several weeks ago, Davenport said. Shaniya began living there about three weeks ago, Davenport said.
Police said Shaniya 's mother has been in and out of the police department helping in the investigation and remains in town. The 7-year-old boy is now in foster care.
Anyone with information about Shaniya is asked to call 433-1585.

3,3,7 Royal Assent You have already seen references to Royal Assent in this unit. The monarch formally assents to a Bill in order for it to pass into law. Royal Assent has never been withheld in recent times. Queen Anne was the last monarch to withhold a Royal Assent, when she blocked a Scottish Militia Bill in 1707. The Queen feared a Scottish militia might be turned against the monarchy. Since the sixteenth century no monarch has actually signed a Bill themselves. Instead, the monarch signs what are kno
3.3.3 Committee stage At this stage a detailed examination of each clause of the Bill is undertaken by a committee of between 16 and 50 MPs. The committee subjects the Bill to line-by-line examination and makes amendments. The committee which carries out these discussions comprises MPs representing the different political parties roughly in proportion to the overall composition of the House of Commons. There will therefore be a Government majority on the committee. However, an attempt is made to ensure representat
2.9 (v) Private Members' Bills Individual Members of Parliament have the power to introduce their own legislation known as a Private Members' Bill. An example of a successful Private Members' Bill which became law is the Marriage Act 1994 introduced by Gyles Brandreth who was MP for Chester at the time. This Act allows people to marry in any registered place, not just a Register Office or religious building. Private Members' Bills may be the result of an MP being approached for support for a proposal put forward by particu

Copies of all Acts of the Scottish Parliament are kept in the National Archives of Scotland. Copies of all Acts of the UK Parliament have been kept since 1497. Most of these are kept in the House of Lords Record Office in the Victoria Tower at Westminster, and are available for public inspection on arrangement with the Clerk of the Re
3 Sources of law in Scotland Before moving on to consider how law is made in Scotland and how the legal system works, it is important to understand what the sources of law are. By this we mean how we find out where the authoritative statements of the legal rules (laws) which are applied to determine rights, duties and remedies come from. Who has the authority to make laws and why? 6.1 Introduction We have now looked at how formal rules are formulated, and at some of the strategies that may be deployed when interpreting them. In this part we will take this one step further and explore in more detail something that we have already touched on and thought about – the application of rules. This is a really important thing to understand, since rules are designed to regulate conduct, and have to be applied to instances of the conduct with which they are concerned. 5.3 Summary of Part D After studying Part D you should be able to: explain the difficulties of interpreting written statements; explain what is meant by indeterminacy; explain what is meant by interpretive strategies; describe the literal approach to interpretation; describe the approach to interpretation which seeks to avoid absurdity; describe the approach to interpretation which looks t Next steps After completing this unit you may wish to study another OpenLearn Study Unit or find out more about this topic. Here are some suggestions: 2.3 Summary of Part A In Part A you have learned: that the English legal system is a common law system; that this means that much of the law has been developed over time by the courts; how to develop your use of language. Except for third party materials and otherwise stated (see terms and conditions), this content 2.2 Use of language Use of language is extremely important in law. As a law student it is important that you use language in an accurate way. The rest of Part A of this unit will therefore consider the importance of language in law. By now you will have had a few opportunities to look up the 2.1 The history of the common law Prior to the Norman Conquest of England in 1066, there was no unitary, national legal system. Before 1066 the English legal system involved a mass of oral customary rules, which varied according to region. The law of the Jutes in the south of England, for example, was different from that of the Mercians in the middle of the country (see map below).

-- story from the mideast -- -- tensions with Iran a possibly taking a serious turn for the worst.
Again we just got this video in the last hour from Israeli TV it is of a deadly bombing of a bus carrying Israeli tourists in Bulgaria.
At least four people were killed.
And Israel's prime minister now says quote all signs point to a -- in this attack.
And he is warning that his country will have a strong response Israel will react strongly to Iran's terror that is a quote.
In the words of our guest this could be setting the table for a major showdown now between Iran and Israel.
Ambassador John Bolton is here with us now he's a former US ambassador to the United Nations and a Fox News contributor ambassador Bolton.
This is.
This this is Israel claiming and a -- a terror attack on Bulgarian soil because Israelis are dead.
What evidence is there that Iran was pulling the strings here well I think you have to.
To believe that Israeli prime minister Netanyahu -- choosing his words very carefully and that he spoke only after his government.
Had gotten what they believe to be conclusive evidence that Iran was responsible for this attack.
There have been other attacks on Israelis around the world Thailand India in.
Recent months that have also been blamed on.
Iran but they haven't had this devastating effect on innocent civilians.
And I think when Netanyahu says it's Iran and not Hezbollah.
And that we were strong we will respond strongly.
There's every indication that could well mean an Israeli attack on Iran directly.
Is this and it is this related at all to the nuclear facilities -- -- -- some -- gonna be parlayed somehow owing to a strike.
-- justification for a strike on Iran's nuclear facilities.
Well I think Israel should have done something on the nuclear facilities long ago it doesn't sound to me at this moment like that's what Netanyahu has in mind but.
If he had said has a lot that might imply retaliation by Israel against Hezbollah and Lebanon he did not that's why his words I think have considerable meaning because if there's an Israeli strike against Iran.
Even against simply Revolutionary Guards facilities but not the nuclear program.
Then you could have a direct response by Iran against Israel and we could really be into what put that in historical perspective for us.
Well Israel has a very clear policy going back decades that it does not allow terrorist attacks to go on answer.
And in fact with with this response by Netanyahu he's very clearly sank.
They're not just honest -- respond.
Proportionally to what the -- terrorist attack in Bulgaria was but it could well beyond that going after several facilities of the Revolutionary Guards.
And that's why I think this is that this is so significant I really have to you really have to underline this twice this is a very.
Major development escalation in the region.
It will obviously impact the United States -- all the forces we have been building up.
In the Persian gulf I would think they would be put on alert very very quickly.
While there are two things that you mention that that Iran or Hezbollah has been guilty of other.
Attacks we believe against Israel.
Citizens in other nations and then this is according to the two I think it was the Associated Press saying that.
All the indications pointed toward has -- -- or Iran.
And they said that there was at the arrest of -- Hezbollah operative in Cyprus in recent days and he was suspected of preparing a similar attack.
So at least maybe you've got has -- you point out it Netanyahu saying Iran directly.
What if there is this tit for tat that goes on between Iran in Israel.
You know from today forward.
Is that.
-- what is that what -- what do we do.
Well I think Israel takes the position legitimately that attacks on its innocent civilians whether in Bulgaria or Israel or any.
Where else -- by -- state like Iran is an act of war.
So they would say they're retaliation is self defense and I think that's right.
The the Hezbollah as a surrogate for Iran anyway and one could have said even if it were Hezbollah attack it was instigated by Iran.
That's why I think Netanyahu saying Iran specifically rather than has -- removes the ambiguity.
And almost certainly points to some Israeli action against Iran directly.
While want to tell our viewers just getting.
Very brief information and saying that there White House spokesman Jay Carney has come out saying that we stand with Israel in today's briefing.
But not much more than that we'll try to get -- more details for you on exactly what the White House is saying about this.
But again this is from the prime minister of Israel this is in -- in terror attack that is spreading across the world.
Israel will react strongly to Iran's.

My Profile
Lewis Grizzard
One of the most popular Southern humorists of the latter half of the 20th century, Lewis Grizzard was perhaps a little too down-home and opinionated to translate as universally as Mark Twain did, but his newspaper columns, numerous books, and live performances made him one of the region's best-loved writers. Lewis McDonald Grizzard, Jr. was born October 20, 1947, in Fort Benning, GA; his father, an Army captain, abandoned the family when Grizzard was very young, and he moved with his mother to Moreland, GA, the small town he would frequently return to in his writings. Grizzard attended the University of Georgia, and at age 23 became the executive sports editor at the Atlanta Journal, the youngest person ever to hold the post. He moved on to become the sports editor at the Chicago Sun-Times, but eventually tired of life in the north and returned to the Journal, where he began writing a regular column at his editor's suggestion. It proved wildly popular, leading to national syndication, and collections of Grizzard's columns began hitting the New York Times' Bestseller List during the '80s. Grizzard also began writing occasional books apart from his newspaper columns, and took frequent performance tours, blending standup comedy with his typically southern storytelling. Some of those gigs were recorded and released as comedy albums, a discography that was augmented by Grizzard's many books on tape readings. Grizzard had to curtail his public appearances in the early '90s as a congenital heart valve defect began to take its toll on his health. He underwent four open heart surgeries in all, and passed away on March 20, 1994, at the age of 47. ~ Steve Huey, Rovi

Sri Lanka military sounds last warning to Tigers |
Wednesday, 08 April 2009 | |
By C. Bryson Hull COLOMBO, (Reuters) - Sri Lanka's military on Wednesday broadcast a final surrender offer to Tamil Tiger rebels surrounded in a tiny strip of coast, urging them drop their guns and free tens of thousands of civilians or be destroyed. After a punishing three-day battle in which the military said it killed more than 500 Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE) rebels, the army sealed the remnants of the separatist group off in a no-fire zone where they are mixed among civilians. Using a public address system from the edge of the army-declared no-fire zone, soldiers blared the last call to a group that has fought Asia's longest-running civil war and is on the verge of defeat as a conventional force. "We have given them the truth. We announced that the LTTE must stop holding the people, and urged them to surrender. This is the last time they have to come and surrender," military spokesman Brigadier Udaya Nanayakkara said. He did not say when the offer of surrender expired. The Tigers, whose fighters wear vials of cyanide around their necks to be taken in case of capture, have vowed not to give up their fight to create a separate state for Sri Lanka's minority Tamils. They could not be immediately reached for comment. The LTTE has rebuffed numerous past calls from the United Nations and others to free the civilians. The world body has urged the military to proceed carefully when making their final assault, to prevent unnecessary civilian casualties. The government has pledged to fight with maximum caution.

The 400-meter decrease in thickness at the NEEM site reported by the scientists, for example, included a range of plus or minus 250 meters. The finding that the surface elevation was 130 meters below the present included a range of plus or minus 300 meters.
"I don't think they should have reached any conclusion about how much the ice sheet shrank," added Kurt Cuffey, a professor at the University of California, Berkeley, noting the "uncertainties" in the number ranges. The high end of the range for reduction in ice thickness is "very large," he said.
Additionally, Greenland still will be the biggest contributor to sea level rise in the immediate future, despite Antarctica's ultimate role, according to Dahl-Jensen. A study in November in Science found that Greenland has experienced more dramatic melting than Antarctica since the 1990s (ClimateWire, Nov. 30, 2012).
Dahl-Jensen noted that a fraction of the sea level rise seen in the Eemian, 1 meter, would still create major problems for coastal areas. Many scientists think that 1 meter (3.2 feet) of global sea level rise is possible by 2100.
The ice core also revealed significant surface melting of the Greenland ice sheet during the Eemian, just as there was in 2012, when it rained near the study site. This dynamic of intense surface melting will continue as the Arctic heats up faster than the rest of the globe, said Dahl-Jensen.
"The present warming over Greenland make surface melt more likely, and the predicted warming over Greenland in the next 50 to 100 years will very likely be so strong that we will potentially have Eemian-like climate conditions," she said.

Pete "El Conde" Rodríguez
Pete "El Conde" Rodríguez
Born January 31, 1935, in Ponce, Puerto Rico, Pedro Juan Rodríguez Ferrer first began playing percussion as a young boy. However, his skills with his voice, and not with his hands, would propel him into the ranks as one of salsa's finest singers. Rodríguez was just a young man when he moved to New York City and bandleader Johnny Pacheco saw him performing in a Bronx bar and soon recruited him for his orchestra. Rodríguez also sang on Conjunto Sensacíon's Swing '65¸ but he returned to Pacheco to record with him, including Tres de Cafe y Dos de Azucar and the first-ever release for the fledgling Fania label, Cańonazo (he was also a founding member of the Latin supergroup Fania All-Stars, and performed on a number of their releases). In 1974, under the management of his wife, Francis, the singer (who by this time was going by Pete "El Conde" Rodríguez, the royal moniker given to him because of his majestic stage presence) decided to start work as a solo artist. Keeping the Cuban conjunto format he had used with Pacheco, Rodríguez's debut solo album, El Conde, came out that same year to much success. In the next few years he released four more albums, including 1976's Este Negro Si Es Sabroso and 1982's Fiesta con "El Conde". In 1983 he and Pacheco reunited for four more albums, among which was the 1987's Grammy-nominated Salsobita. In the '90s, Rodríguez decided to make the switch to using a full orchestra behind him, and released Generaciones in 1993 and Pete y Papo with pianist Papo Lucca in 1996. Four years later, on December 1, 2000, after a career highlighted by performances with some of salsa music's greatest stars, El Conde died of a heart attack in his home in the Bronx. ~ Marisa Brown, Rovi

Ecuadorian scientists have revived a new species of yeast from pre-Incan tomb, illuminating prehistoric life
February 19, 2012 | 14
The slide with the very short mummies is confounding without an explanation - what is that a picture of? It's not them, is it full scale, PC generated; what? By itself, it is macabre.
Reply | Report Abuse | Link to thisI object to the word "new" to qualify this "discovery"; the writer states, "he coaxed a community of yeasts, which had lain dormant in the entombed vessels since A.D. 680, back to life." By definition, new is never-before. Coaxed BACK to life; they're old, not new. It's not a discovery, it's a stumble into the past, serendipity. You cannot bring something back to life and call it new! "Look, here for the second time - I mean first time, this new, recently dead thing."

Reply | Report Abuse | Link to thisC. thea is a new species based on genetic sequencing and molecular biological analysis and it is recorded as such in the paper published this week in the scientific journal cited in the article. This is not the first time a new species thought to be extinct has subsequently been found alive. The coelacanth (an ancient lobe fin fish) is a famous example of this. The yeast does not form spores. It was not viable without the specialized process Dr. Carvajal has devised to revive ancient yeast. The process involves rehydrating the cells,repairing the damaged cell membrane, and restarting their metabolism.
Reply | Report Abuse | Link to thisDarwinian/Mendelian evolution includes microbes, the dominant form of life on Earth. This is not a new species of Candida but a phase in the evolution of the Candida microbial breed that we have identified in modern times to date. Some phases in microbial evolution have become extinct, as we well know happened with primate fossils, such as Lucy. Anti-microbial pharmaceuticals have speeded up microbial evolution, so that many microbes can now defend themselves against what we see, with our limited knowledge, as old-line antibiotics, for example, that really haven't been around that long. Some modern microbes have learned to thicken their cell wall when attacked and/or to bombard the antibiotic molecule with an enzyme that snips off its tail, crippling it. Giving rise to an ID wisecrack that some bugs today are smarter than the drugs.
Sign me up for a growler! Hold the human feces though.
Reply | Report Abuse | Link to thisAs stated in the article, the bodies were found in the fetal position, which is why they appear "short". What was not stated, but was probably true, is that the bodies were dessicated (and then wrapped) before interment, which is why the bodies appear to be less bulky than you would expect from being in the fetal position.
Reply | Report Abuse | Link to thisAs someone else has so verbosely pointed out, "new" has multiple meanings, and in this context means "previously unknown or undecribed by science". The headline is perfectly accurate, if easily misconstrued by the scientifically illiterate.
Reply | Report Abuse | Link to thisR. Douglas Fields, very impressive report about some very impressive work.
It seems to me, unhygienic eating habits alone with near starvation, from time to time, are the circumstances that give us alcoholic beverages! No doubt such was discovered and rediscovered in many places over many spans of time.

They started their fermented drinks using feces and diseased phlegm? I'm not mourning the demise of this particular "culture".
Reply | Report Abuse | Link to thisWhile the word "new" can obviously have "relative" meanings, perhaps what's even worse than any so-called "scientific illiteracy", is the sense of grandiosity and "entitlement" that it must take to so casually resort to rudeness & name-calling over a disagreement. Although I think the, um, "scientific" term for that is clinical Narcissism! ;-p
Reply | Report Abuse | Link to thisThe method used to initiate fermentation is fascinating, but of course these people had no idea about germs--or the mechanism of fermentation for that matter. In fact German biologist Theodore Schwann was ridiculed by leading authorities when he first proposed the idea that fermentation was the result of microbes consuming sugar and excreting alcohol and carbon dioxide in 1839. (Schwann's scientific career was ended after only 5 years.) These ancient people were simply following ritualistic practices that had been found to work through trial and error.
Reply | Report Abuse | Link to thisMing..., I intended no rudeness nor name-calling. I consider it a fact that the scientifically literate would have no problem understanding what was meant by the term "new" in the context in which it was used. I'm sorry that I couldn't find a more polite term in which to couch my comment. You, on the other hand, were deliberately rude and resorted to name-calling. You read way too much into a simple statement.
Reply | Report Abuse | Link to thisThe Ipias from Quito were a human cultural group whose believes were too much different to those of the Occidental Culture. When they died, they returned to mother earth, they didn`t go to heaven. In that context, they made deep tombs to facilitate the dead`s last trip to their original homeland. If we think on the introspective character of this believes (i.e. coming back to the bowels of the earth)it is not surprising that live in the form of food (i.e. chicha) came from their oun bowels, that is, from their feaces. On the other hand, the aparent absence of Saccharomyces cerevisiae in the fermentations systems in America (unpublished studies of fermented beverages from ancient indian cultures of America) can probably point out to an ecological characteristic very much different to that of the European, where wine and beer were produced thousands of years before, using the abovementioned species. Moreover, if we think on the tradicional, old fashioned way of making wine, we have to remind that grape juice was obtained after steping with naked feet on the grapes. I need to remark that Candida yeast species are also found as inhabitants in feet, in some cases causing athlete`s foot disease.
As for the pejorative comment about the culture that some reader posted, I would ask for the wide and profound criteria about the costumes of our and his ancestors.

From the December 14, 2008 Sunday Times
December 15, 2008
by Irwin Stelzer
Don't project beyond the range of the known observations" is a rule followed by careful economists. In plain English this means, for example, that we know how American consumers behave when petrol prices move between $1 and $4 a gallon, "the range of the known observations". But we haven't much of an idea what consumers would do if prices rose to $5 — no experience, no data to inform our forecasts. Which is why we have to be very careful when predicting the effect of the various policies that are being adopted to fight the credit crisis and recession. We simply have no experience of this combination of events.
So we have reason to worry about the galaxy of stars that Barack Obama has assembled to help him right the American economy. They are so bright, so self-confident, so accustomed to being the smartest guy or girl in the room, that doubt is not one of the emotions with which they are familiar, as was true of the bright young "quants" (mathematical economists) who designed the models used to manage the risks taken on by Lehman Brothers and AIG. Something about hubris and nemesis comes to mind.
Consider this. Treasury secretary Hank Paulson persuaded Congress to give him a $700 billion pot of money with which to buy the rotten IOUs on banks' balance sheets. The theory was straightforward: relieved of this burden, the banks would resume their role of lenders to potential homeowners, businesses and consumers. It sounded like a good idea. But almost immediately it occurred to Paulson that Gordon Brown had a better idea — recapitalise the banks by buying shares so that they could begin lending again. That, too, was confidently touted as a good idea.
But we have moved beyond the range of what we know about credit crunches. All we know is that the results so far have not matched the predictions of the proponents of these policies. Which is one reason why Paulson decided not to use the second half of his $700 billion, and to leave it to the next Congress and the incoming president to decide whether it might not be better to pass the remaining $350 billion direct to homeowners who are falling behind with their mortgage payments. Surely that would reduce foreclosures and repossessions, thereby easing the glut of unsold homes, raising prices and helping to bring the recession to an end. Surely? Better, perhaps.
Then there is the proposed bailout of the Big Three carmakers — GM, Ford and Chrysler — stalled at this writing by the refusal of Senate Republicans to go along with the compromise deal crafted by the White House and congressional Democrats. These senators see no reason to spend taxpayers' money to underwrite the $70-a-hour labour costs of the unionised companies, when Toyota and other non-union domestic manufac- turers produce great cars in America with workers earning a still-handsome wage of $45 a hour. But even though the Auto Workers Union is refusing to make any significant sacrifices, Bush and Paulson are determined to find a way to pump cash into the industry to put it on life support for 37 days.
Then, the ball will be in Obama's court. The president-elect has promised to develop a plan to restructure America's motor industry, something that has eluded the industry's management during its decade of decline. Experts estimate that Obama will end up spending $125 billion in pursuit of his goal.
Once again, it is difficult to predict the consequences of a government intervention. Advocates of a bailout are predicting that the result will be a lean, mean, green competitive Big Three, and that failure to act will reverberate through the economy. Opponents say that recourse to the bankruptcy courts is more likely to produce a healthy motor industry. Unfortunately, we simply have no experience with a bailout on this scale and in these circumstances. It is beyond the range of known observations.
Then there are Obama's plans for an economic stimulus costing at least half-a-trillion dollars, more likely a trillion. Roads, bridges, schools and all sorts of other things fitting under the title of "infrastructure" will be built, providing 2.5m jobs. So says Obama's distinguished team of economists.
But infrastructure projects take a long time to move from the drawing board to a shovel in the ground. So the recession might be over before any worker dirties his or her hands paving a road or putting the first rivets in a bridge. Or the stimulus might actually, well, stimulate. We won't know until experience performs its historic role as teacher.
Finally, there is the impact of driving up the government's deficit to something like 10% of GDP, about three times the level once considered the limit beyond which the Federal Reserve Board would be forced to raise interest rates to stave off inflation and save a sinking dollar from complete collapse.
But we have moved beyond the range of the known observations: the Fed is doing things no central bank has ever done. The government borrowing mounts, the printing presses turn out billions of newly minted dollars. But here is the surprise: the Fed is keeping interest rates close to zero, investors are lending the Treasury money without asking for interest (and in some cases paying the Treasury for being allowed to buy its IOUs), and the dollar remains strong as risk-averse investors flee to the American currency.
The point of this exercise is definitely not to persuade you to skip this column every Sunday. Rather, it is to persuade you that the following opinions are best guesses based on the imperfect analytical tools in this economist's tool kit, and a good deal of real-world experience.
So here goes: the second tranche of $350 billion should be aimed at easing credit markets rather than specifically at the housing market; the GM bailout will fail because the parties won't give up enough to make the company competitive; the dollar won't sink because there are few places investors can trust as much as the United States, even a heavily indebted United States. That much I know — well, think I know.

text: Just two years after Janet & Justin's Super Bowl snafu — for which the FCC is still punishing blue-state libertines — we're lucky to have an act as outré as Big & Rich headlining the Rose Bowl halftime show. On last year's double-platinum Horse of a Different Color, "Big" Kenny Alphin and John Rich — linchpins in Nashville's Muzik Mafia, a loose posse of freaky C&W mavericks that also includes Gretchen Wilson and Cowboy Troy — introduced what they call "country music without prejudice": hard-riffing country-funk spiked with bubblegum choruses and slang borrowed from BET. Big & Rich's goal was shaking up the Nashville establishment with some new-money panache, and shake it up they did. Take a listen to recent CDs by such Music City stalwarts as Brooks & Dunn and Brad Paisley and you'll hear the duo's influence in tips of the ten-gallon to gritty rap culture and NASCAR-dad bling.Comin' to Your City (Warner Bros.), Big & Rich's follow-up, begins with the promise that the duo haven't broken their commitment to nonconformity: "Somebody's got to be unafraid to lead the freak parade!" they announce over a dinky march beat that picks up sonic debris like a lint brush — mariachi guitar, ragtime piano, even noise-punk amplifier fuzz. Like Horse, Comin' alternates between banjo-laden disco-twang stompers like the title track, where they big-up L.A.'s "freaks at Pink's and 15-dollar drinks," and more conventional ballads such as the soulful "Never Mind Me," which I'd pay 15 dollars to hear Al Green or Babyface tackle.Considering the ephemeral nature of novelty, the audacity of Big & Rich's approach is less pronounced than last time. And it's worth noting that some of the best tunes here are the least flamboyant ones. But if we've got a chance in hell of seeing Nipplegate Part Deux, it's with these boobs. Welcome to town, boys.

Is there a spectator fee?
I see that they have a venue fee of $40 but I don't think I'll be willing to drop that much just to watch/play casuals.

Topic Review (Newest First) |

Good kid! I've seen similar stories, but I'm always impressed with kids like Allison when I hear what they are doing. Some kids may work hard to save money to buy something for themselves, nothing wrong with that, but always nice to see story's like this. HOLYOKE, Mass. (WWLP) A 10-year-old Massachusetts girl says she donated her birthday money to help out a K9 officer from her local police department. Allison Henry of Palmer raised enough money for the Holyoke Police Department to buy a bulletproof vest for a K9 officer named Ryker. Her mother found out about Ryker through a group called Vested Interest in K9s. As a result, Allison decided that instead of birthday presents this year, she would ask for donations to help get Ryker a vest. I just feel that a dog should be safe, because I really like animals, Allison said. Holyoke Police Chief James Neiswanger thanked Allison for the donation during a special ceremony Thursday and said he was impressed the girl was making such a positive impact at such a young age. The department also introduced its two newest K9 members, June and Titan, on Thursday nights ceremony. 10-year-old buys bulletproof vest for K9 officer | WTVR.com |

A new exhibit highlights the people and vessels that plied the waters of Skagit County, from the earliest native canoes to the paddle-wheel steamers that spurred commerce in the late nineteenth century.
"It's all about the maritime history of Skagit County," said Jo Wolfe, fundraising and publicity coordinator for the Skagit County Historical Museum in La Conner, where "Skagit Sets Sail" opened last week.
"It covers everything from the really early days of snagboats to today, with cutting-edge technology," Wolfe said.
Wolfe said snagboats were used in the late 1800s to clear the Skagit River of logjams.
"They were used to keep the river mouth open for sternwheelers and other boats bringing supplies" to the ports upstream, she said. "It was non-navigable for a significant period. Trees were growing on top of the logjams."
To illustrate, the museum has a scale model of the snagboat WT Preston.
Commerce was important on the river because sternwheelers brought hay and lumber downstream and brought supplies upstream. There are exhibits on the sternwheelers Skagit Queen and Skagit Belle, plus information about the early fish canneries and the Carnation plant, where tin for cans was ferried upriver, and the finished evaporated milk was sent to market. Wolfe said it was the popular shipping method before railroads and interstate trucking.
"Skagit Sets Sail" features many scale models and pictures, but there's also a life-size shovelnose canoe and full-size Pelican sailboat, which was a 12-foot wooden boat with a mainsail and a jib, built in 1959 for the windy waters of San Francisco Bay. The boats, which are made from kit, became popular among members of a club who camped on Cypress Island, where they named Pelican Beach in the 1970s.
"They're small, skiff-sized, but it's the real thing with mast and sails," Wolfe said.
Also featured is information about the 1933 movie "Tugboat Annie" and the 1957 TV series "The Adventures of Tugboat Annie." Wolfe said that Anna Grimison, the first female owner of a shipping company and first female licensed boat pilot in the area, was the basis for that character. Others say it was Thea Foss of Tacoma, founder of Foss Maritime.
Illustrating Skagit County's current role in the maritime industry is an exhibit about the contribution that Janicki Industries of Sedro-Woolley made in designing some carbon fiber tooling for the Oracle, which won the 33rd America's Cup.
There's also a display of county's namesake naval vessel, the USS Skagit, with a 22-year history of service that spans World War II, the Korean War and the Vietnam War.
The Skagit was a Tolland-class attack cargo ship that carried 120 Marines and landing ship transports for amphibious assault. It served in Europe and the South Pacific, and was present for the 1945 Japanese surrender at Tokyo Bay. The ship was reactivated for service in Korea, with orders to support the Inchon Landing in 1950. It did not see action at the landing, which reversed the course of the war in the United Nations' favor.
But the Skagit did evacuate more than 4,000 refugees from the North Vietnamese port of Haiphong to Saigon during the Vietnam War. She also was used to ferry supplies and was awarded two battle stars.
The ship was decommissioned in 1969, and sold for scrap in 1974.
The Skagit County Historical Museum is at 501 S. Fourth St. in La Conner. Admission is $5 for adults and $4 for seniors and children 6-12. Museum members and children 5 and younger are admitted free. There's a special family rate of $10 for two adults and two children.
To get there, take Interstate 5 south to Highway 20 westbound. Turn left (south) at La Conner-Whidbey Road. Turn right (west) at the Morris Street traffic circle and a quick left on Maple Avenue. Turn right on Caledonia Street, right on Second St., right on Benton St. and left on Fourth St.
The museum is open 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. Tuesday through Sunday. For more information, contact email@example.com, 360-466-3365 or go to skagitcounty.net/museum.
The Skagit County village of Edison celebrates its second annual Edison Bird Festival with art, workshops and exhibitions Saturday and Sunday, Feb. 9-10. Featured is the Chicken Parade from 10:30-10:40 a.m. Saturday in downtown Edison. Find more information at edisonbirdfestival.com.
The Northwest Chinese Cultural Association celebrates the Year of the Snake with performances of dancing, singing, music, and demonstrations of calligraphy from noon to 4 p.m. Saturday, Feb. 9, in the Syre Student Center at Whatcom Community College. Admission is $20 a person, $35 for a family.
