Abstract: Selenium food fortification could be a cost-effective strategy to counteract the inadequacy of selenium intake among the Italian population. In this study, the effect of foliar fertilization with sodium selenate of an Italian rice cultivar and the increase of serum selenium and of erythrocyte glutathione peroxidase (GPx) activity after intake of fortified rice, have been evaluated. The effect of foliar fertilization with sodium selenate (50 g Se/ha) vs. water was studied. Moreover, in a randomized, double-blind study, 10 healthy women supplemented their usual diet with a daily dose of 80 g of Se-enriched-rice and 10 matched-women with 80 g of regular rice. Before, after 5 and 20 days of supplementation, serum Se and GPx-activity were evaluated. The mean selenium content in Se-enriched-rice was 1.64 ± 0.28 μg/g, while in regular rice it was 0.36 ± 0.15 μg/g (p < 0.001). A significant increase of serum Se and GPx-activity was observed only in the intervention group and only after 20 days. The results show that selenium fortification of rice can be achieved with foliar fertilization with sodium selenate and that the 20 days intake of this Se-enriched-rice increases the serum selenium levels and GPx-activity.
1. Introduction
Selenium is an essential trace mineral important to human health [1]. Even if the precise biological activity of selenium in humans is still under investigation [2], this mineral constitutes a key component of various selenoproteins involved in enzymatic activities and particularly in redox homeostasis and in thyroid hormone metabolism [3]. A poor selenium status has been associated with increased risk of several chronic diseases, such as cardiovascular diseases [1] and cancer [4]. Prospective studies have generally shown some benefit of higher selenium status on the risk of prostate, lung, colorectal, and bladder cancers, but findings from trials have been mixed, which probably emphasizes the fact that supplementation will confer benefit only if the intake of a nutrient is inadequate [5].
The desirable daily intake of selenium is still debated. The selenium recommended daily allowance (RDA) of the Commission of European Communities is 55 μg/day for the adult European population [6], while the RDA established in the United States is 55 and 70 μg/day for women and men respectively [7]. Multiple studies showed an intake inadequacy of selenium in various Countries: in Europe this appears particularly true for the Italian, Danish and Swedish population [8,9]. Roman Viñas et al. analyzed the prevalence of the intake inadequacy of selenium in Europe within the frame of the EURRECA Network of Excellence [8]. This study is based on the analysis of the most representative European data and shows that selenium, folic acid, iodine and vitamin C are the four micronutrients with the highest risk for low diet intake in Europe [8]. As far as selenium is concerned, adults from Finland and from The Netherlands have a prevalence of Selenium inadequacy equal to or below 10% of the population, while it is at or above 30% in the nutritional surveys conducted in Italy, Denmark and Sweden, in adults and in elderly subjects, in males and females [8]. Another study confirms that the average selenium intake in Italian adults hardly reaches the daily recommended level, particularly in the female population [9].
Environmental conditions and agricultural practices greatly affect the selenium content of many foods [10,11,12], thus contributing to the extensive variability that has been observed in selenium intake and selenium status of different populations [13]. In particular, the selenium content in wheat produced in Italy averages on a provincial basis from 7 to 245 ng g−1 [14]. The production area of wheat and rice differs considerably in Italy because wheat is produced in most Italian regions, while rice is produced in few provinces mostly located in the north west of the Country and in particular in the counties of Novara, Vercelli and Pavia.
The Italian Institute of Research on Agriculture and Nutrition (INRAN) reports that the rice produced in Italy is characterized by low content of selenium (10 μg/100 g of rice) (INRAN, tables of food composition), mostly due to the low content of selenium in soil of the production area [14]. As a matter of fact, a recent study estimated that the selenium content in the soil of the area where the study has been performed (border between Novara and Vercelli county) is one of the lowest in Italy showing values below 25 μg kg−1 [14]. Therefore, on average the selenium content of Italian rice shows values which are too low to meet the demand of this micronutrient. This appears particularly true for people feeding on rice as staple food or for patients with celiac disease or gluten sensitivity who are forced to use rice as a main source of cereals. Moreover, a recent study demonstrated that consumption of white rice was negatively correlated with selenium levels [15]. Therefore, selenium rice fortification could be a possible way to increase selenium intake and to favor the recommended daily allowance (RDA) achievement [6].
Agronomic biofortification represents a food technology which has been used on many occasions with various products, including rice. Rice is one of the most important staple crops and rice fortification with different micronutrients, such as zinc, iron, selenium, has been reported in order to favor human nutrition and health [16,17,18].
The aim of the present study is to evaluate the effect of foliar fertilization with selenate of an Italian rice cultivar in order to produce a selenium fortified rice and to evaluate the increase of serum selenium levels and of erythrocyte glutathione peroxidase (GPx) activity in young healthy subjects supplemented with this selenium enriched rice.
2. Experimental Section
2.1. Production of Selenium Enriched Rice
The experiment was conducted in the village of Villarboit (Vercelli, Italy), in a well known Italian rice producing area in the north west of the Country, in a region located between Po river and the Alps. The chosen cultivar of rice was "S.Andrea". Rice sowing was performed in flooded conditions on the 18 April 2012. A first rice fertilization was done before sowing with 60% of nitrogen and potassium needs and a second one was done in the tillering phase, supplying the 20% of needs. A third fertilization was done at the moment of the appearance of the second node in the rice plant, supplying the remaining 20% of nitrogen and potassium. A pesticide treatment was done with Nominee (Bayer CropScience, Milano, Italy) 40 days after sowing. A fungicide treatment was performed with Impact 250 sc (Dow AgroSciences, Bologna, Italy) before the appearance of tassels. Foliar application of sodium selenate at a concentration of 50 g Se/ha was conducted on the 21st of August 2011, when the rice was thoroughly tasseled, seven days after fungicide treatment. No fertilizer or pesticide was supplied after selenium fertilization. Rice harvest was performed on the 29th of September 2011.
Two plots were used for the experiment: each plot was 26 × 26 m and was divided in nine sub-plots of 8 × 8 m with an interrow spacing of 1 m. The intervention (IT) was a unique foliar spraying with 28 mL of sodium selenate (Na2SeO4) solution at 10% diluted in 30 L of water; while the control treatment (CT) was foliar spraying with 30 L of water.
2.2. Rice Selenium Determination
Rice selenium determination was conducted with the method of hydride generation atomic fluorescence spectrometry (AFS). An atomic fluorescence spectrometer (AFS-610, produced by Beijing Rayleigh Analytical Instrument Corp., Beijing, China) was used with a hollow cathode lamp current of 80 mA and a specific procedure has been followed (Environmental Protection Administration, Cincinnati, OH, USA). All measurements were performed in peak height mode. The digested samples were autosampled and determined by AFS. As regards reagents, all solutions were prepared with deionized water. Nitric acid, hydrochloric acid, and perchloric acid of guaranteed reagent grade and potassium hydroxide, potassium tetrahydroborate, and potassium ferricyanide of analytical reagent grade were also used. The standard solution of selenium with a concentration of 1 μg of Se mL−1 was prepared with guaranteed reagent grade element selenium dissolved in nitric acid and stored at 0 °C for making the standard curve in the selenium determination. Samples of rice were dried at 50 °C and then milled for selenium determination. Around 1 g of powdered subsample of each sample was taken for analysis. The powdered subsample was put into a high-walled beaker and mineralized with 10 mL of a 4:1 (v/v) mixture of HNO3 and HClO4 at a constant 150 °C in a sand bath until the solution became colorless and clear. For reduction of Se6+ to Se4+, 5 mL of 6 mol L−1 HCl was added to the digested solution and heated in the same bath at room temperature until the solution became colorless and clear. Then, the digested sample was cooled and diluted to 25 mL with deionized water; 5 mL of the solution was put into a test tube, and 1 mL of concentrated HCl and 0.5 mL of 10% K3Fe(CN)6 (w/w) were added; then 1 mL of mixture was autosampled into a reaction vessel. Rice samples and blank were subjected to the same procedure. The data presented here were corrected for blank values, which were usually very low for this method.
2.3. Human Study Group
A group of 20 healthy young women (age 25 ± 2 years, Body Mass Index 23 ± 1) was recruited for a 20 day randomized, double-blind intervention study. Ten of them (randomly selected) supplemented their usual diet with a daily dose of 80 g of Se-enriched white S. Andrea rice and 10 were supplied with the same amount of non enriched white S. Andrea rice. The supplementation was done with boiled rice. Before and after 5 and 20 days of supplementation, the fasting serum Se level and the erythrocyte glutathione peroxidase (GPx) activity were evaluated in all the recruited patients. These parameters were also evaluated 10 days after withdrawal of the supplementation. The study design was approved by the Ethics Committee of the University of Pavia and an individual written informed consent was obtained from each subject. Data were gathered from the end of January 2013 to the end of June 2013.
2.4. Selenium and GPx Determination in Plasma
Selenium was measured in serum by hydride generating atomic absorption spectrometry (Model 210 VGP, Buck Scientific, East Norwalk, CT, USA) using procedures and methods previously described by other workers [19,20]. The analyst made two measurements for each sample and the average of the observations was recorded as research data. Standard laboratory selenium solutions containing certified selenium content were used as reference materials to control for the quality of the analysis (109915 Titrisol, Merck, Darmstadt, Germany). GPx activity was measured by determining the rate of NADPH oxidation in the presence of 0.25 mmol H2O2/L [21].
2.5. Data Analysis
In order to obtain representative samples of rice, the sampling theory with repositioning was used [22]. Nine lots of enriched and nine of control rice were randomly extracted in a sequential manner [23]. Each lot was derived from one of the nine sub-plots of 8 × 8 m in which the global plot (676 m2) has been divided. Each lot of rice underwent an evaluation of the selenium content for three times. The comparison of the amount of selenium in fortified rice and control rice was performed with the Student's paired t-test or Wilcoxon signed-rank test, according to the result of the normality test. Normality was assessed using the Shapiro-Wilk test. For the computation of the sampling plan, the statistical package: PASS 2008-NCSS (Statistical and Power Analysis Software, Kaysville, UT, USA) has been used. For the data analysis, the statistical package: SAS version 9.1 (SAS Institute, Inc., Cary, NC, USA) has been applied.
As far as the statistical analysis of the human data is concerned, results were described as mean and standard deviation if continuous, and as counts and percentage if categorical. Pre-post comparisons were carried out within each treatment group using the paired Student t test; mean changes over time and 95% confidence intervals (95% CI) were calculated. Finally, the changes between the treatment groups were compared using a general linear regression model, adjusting for baseline values. Huber White robust standard errors were calculated. The mean difference between the changes and 95% CI was reported. Stata 12 (StataCorp, College Station, TX, USA) was used for these calculations. A 2-sided p-value < 0.05 was considered statistically significant.
3. Results
The mean selenium amount found in the fortified rice was 1.64 ± 0.28 μg/g of rice, while in the control rice the selenium content was 0.36 ± 0.15 μg/g of rice. The difference between these two data appeared statistically significant (p < 0.001).
The serum Se level was significantly increased in the intervention group after 20 days of supplementation with selenium fertilized rice (99.3 ± 17.7 μg/L at time 0 and 114.1 ± 28.6 μg/L at day 20, p < 0.003), while it did not change after 5 days (100.4 ± 19.1 μg/L). The control group did not show any significant difference after supplementation with regular rice in both the observation dates (98.2 ± 18.7 μg/L at time 0 and 98.6 ± 18.6 μg/L at day 5 and 100.2 ± 23.4 μg/L at day 20). Similar results were observed when erythrocyte glutathione peroxidase (GPx) activity was evaluated. In effect the group supplemented with Se enriched rice showed a significant increase in GPx activity after 20 days of intervention (19.1 ± 3.1 at time 0 and 22.9 ± 3.0 at day 20, p < 0.01), while its value did not change after 5 days (19.3 ± 1.9) and the control group did not show any significant change either after supplementation for 5 or for 20 days (20.2 ± 2.8 at time 0 and 18.4 ± 1.9 at day 5 and 19.1 ± 2.9 at day 20). All these data are reported in Table 1. The follow-up of the supplemented subjects with selenium enriched rice showed that ten days after the end of the intervention, both the mean serum selenium level and GPx activity were reduced as compared to the end of intervention (day 20 of supplementation) and did not differ significantly when compared with the basal values observed before starting the intervention. The serum selenium level and GPx activity observed in the control group 10 days after the end of supplementation with regular rice did not show any significant difference when compared with values observed before and after 5 or 10 days of supplementation, as shown in Table 1.
The inter-group analysis performed after 20 days of rice supplementation showed significant Δ changes of serum selenium levels and GPx activity when intervention and control group were compared, as reported in Table 1. No other inter-group significant differences were observed. The selenium foliar fertilization did not influence the plant growth and yield.
4. Discussion
The intake of one portion (80 g) a day of selenium enriched rice for 20 days is associated with a significant increase of serum selenium level and of GPx activity in young, healthy Italian women. This is the main result obtained in this intervention study. A standard serving (80 g) of the fortified uncooked rice used in the present study contains 135 micrograms of selenium, corresponding to 168% of the Italian RDA for adult population. Anyhow, it has to be underlined that, according to our unpublished data, the boiling process of this selenium fortified rice is associated with a 60% selenium loss. Therefore, the final content of selenium in boiled enriched rice is about 0.98 μg/g: this means that 80 g of this boiled rice contain 78.4 μg of selenium. As shown by Roman et al., the selenium intake inadequacy (i.e., % of population with values below estimated average required) is 32.8% of the Italian males and 32% of the Italian females [8]. Taking into account these data, and considering that the European Food Safety Authority in 2006 stated that the tolerable upper intake level for selenium is of 300 μg/day, the daily supplementation of selenium due to the intake of 80 g of the enriched rice does not imply any toxicological risk for the Italian population.
Another finding of relevant interest is represented by the correlation between duration of the intervention and effects. As a matter of fact, in this study it has been proven that a significant increase of serum selenium level and of GPx activity is observed after 20 days of supplementation, while a short intervention (5 days) is not adequate to achieve this effect. This information is of great importance from the strategic and nutritional point of view because it offers a useful indication for consumers. Additionally, it has to be considered that the effect reverses quickly: 10 days after the interruption of supplementation with Se enriched rice, selenium serum level, as well as GPx activity, fell to the levels observed before starting the intervention. This finding is in line with previously published data with various selenium enriched food items or supplements [24,25], but no data are available on the serum selenium level and GPx activity after supplementation with selenium enriched rice.
The debate on selenium intake and on serum selenium levels and health is open to discussion [5]. Many epidemiological and laboratory studies show a protective effect of selenium against the development of cancer at numerous sites, including prostate, colon and lung [1,4,5]. Low soil selenium concentration is correlated with cancer mortality throughout the world [26]. Both prospective and case control studies have demonstrated associations between low blood or toenail selenium and increased risk for cancer, particularly of the prostate [27]. The chemopreventive mechanism of selenium remains unclear, but enhanced protection against oxidative stress may be involved [28]. The biological activity of selenium-containing antioxidant enzymes, including glutathione peroxidase and thioredoxin reductase, is influenced by selenium availability [29]. Various preclinical studies have indicated that selenium supplementation can enhance concentrations of the major intracellular antioxidant, glutathione (GSH) and the activity of its rate-limiting biosynthetic enzyme, γ-glutatmyl cysteine ligase, and decrease concentrations of its oxidized products in tissues and blood [30]. GSH is a first line of defense against oxidative stress, and decreased GSH could be associated with increased risk for cancer [31]. Glutathionylated proteins are major products of GSH oxidation, and their formation represents a potential mechanism by which oxidative stress can influence carcinogenesis [32].
As reported by Viñas et al., various European Countries, including Italy, show an inadequate selenium intake [8] and a few small-scale surveys of plasma selenium levels evidenced a deficient status in various Italian communities [33]. Foods with the highest Se content are finfish and shellfish products, poultry, beef and pork products, cereal grains and pasta (INRAN). Anyhow, selenium food content is strongly influenced by various factors, primarily by the soil Se content and the Italian soil has been shown to be characterized by low selenium content [14]. As a consequence, the selenium enrichment of a staple food like rice could be useful in increasing the average intake of selenium in Italy, as well as in other Countries with low selenium soil content [34]. This approach has been successfully followed in various European countries, such as in UK and Finland, where the remedy to low dietary Se intake and status has been to enrich locally grown food crops using Se fertilizers (agronomic biofortification) [35].
The selenium enriched rice obtained in this study has been produced with foliar fertilization with sodium selenate of an italian rice cultivar. The methodology used in this experimental model is cheap, easy to realize and allows us to obtain a rice product with a 79% increase of the selenium content as compared to the rice without biofertilization. This finding is in agreement with previous studies [16,17], even though all of them have been conducted in China with Indica cultivars of rice. One of the innovations of this research project is related to the selenium enrichment of a typical Japonica rice cultivar (S. Andrea cultivar), which is grown in Italy. The Japonica cultivars are characterized by short and round grains of rice that strongly differ from the Indica rice cultivars commonly grown in Asia, with long and thin grains. Indica and Japonica rice cultivars have similar metabolism; however, the Se enrichment of a Japonica rice cultivar grown exclusively in Europe, and specifically in Italy, has never been done up to now.
5. Conclusions
In conclusion, the intake for 20 days of a daily portion (80 g) of selenium enriched rice, obtained by foliar fertilization with sodium selenate, is associated with a significant increase of serum selenium levels and of GPx activity. Therefore, the frequent intake of selenium enriched rice appears potentially useful to favor the achievement of the selenium daily allowances suggested for the Italian population and for other populations with low selenium intake.

Updated: Novenber 16, 2014Hello to all of the Babydoll Southdown sheep lovers. We are well underway into the new breeding season and very much looking forward to the 2015 Spring Lambing. The moms and dads are doing very well. There is a chill in the air the sheep just love. Not me so much, but the sheep love it. At this time we are still collecting a few more deposits for our 2015 lambs season. We are welcoming a number of new customers into the Sweetwater Family. But it is not to late and you still have some time to get your deposit in. But please do not wait to long because Mother Nature as always is the boss and she decides on what lambs we get each year. The longer you wait, the slimmer your chances are on that lamb your hoping for. As you can see we are counting the days until the start of the 2015 Lambing season. Every year someone always waits until it's to late and misses out. Don't let that be you this year. As always we will place the rams together with their selected ewes October 1st and as of this update we are one month into the new breeding season.
Sweetwater Farm YouTube Channel
We wanted to provide these short YouTube videos to give you an idea what our lambing time is like for us as well as the joy these little lambs bring into our lives.
Please feel free to contact us anytime you have any questions about our Babydoll Southdown Sheep, or you would like to visit our farm and meet them in person.
Thank you very much and please enjoy our website...
Babydoll Southdown sheep and lambs, or their more formal name Old English Southdown sheep have been a wonderful addition to our family and can be a wonderful addition to your family that will give you years of pleasure. We apply only the best in breeding practices making every attempt to enhance the best qualities the Babydoll Southdown sheep are known for and at the same time keeping the bloodlines far apart producing healthy Babydoll lambs.
When we started our flock of Babydoll Southdown sheep and anytime we add new sheep or lambs to our flock we handpick what we consider to be the best. We continue to search out and only accept into our Babydoll sheep breeding program the Babydoll sheep and lambs with good dispositions, conformation, fiber quality,color, and most of all a healthy history. We do our best to only own and breed Babydoll Southdown sheep that represent the best in breed qualities.
Our flock of Babydoll Southdown sheep is made up of colors ranging from natural color blacks that are harder to find in the Babydoll Southdown sheep. The natural dark colors rang from Dark black to a light cream and dark rich looking natural browns. We also have a few white Babydoll Southdown sheep and we are starting to breed Spotted Babydoll Southdown sheep to get the beautiful spotted Babydoll lambs many people are looking for. All of our Babydoll Southdown sheep and the new Babydoll lambs are registered with the original Old English Southdown Sheep Registry that Mr. Robert Mock started in 1991.
Our flock of Old English Babydoll sheep and Babydoll lambs share our pastures and get along very well with our horses and goats. Babydoll lambs do their best and must be in a flock of two or more, but do to their gentle nature Babydoll lambs get along very well with other animals.
What I feel sets us apart from other Babydoll Southdown sheep breeders is our "after the sale" support we continue to provide to our customers after they bring home their new Babydoll lambs. We feel it is very important for a Babydoll lamb breeder to be there for their customers to answer questions that may come up about the Babydoll lambs. And there will be questions.
After you bring your new Babydoll lambs home we will be just a phone call away when you need us. Babydoll Southdown Sheep have been a wonderful part of our farm and Babydoll lambs will be a wonderful addition to your family as well. Our after the sale support will be the icing on the cake that will make owning your Babydoll lambs that much easier. We want you as the new owner to do well and to fully enjoy you Babydoll lambs. But there will always be a part of us that will consider your Babydoll lambs as our Babydoll lambs and we will always want the best for them.
We have been told by our customers that good Babydoll Southdown Sheep breeders are very hard to find. I can tell you our Babydoll lambs went to homes in Pennsylvania, Tennessee, North Carolina, South Carolina, Illinois, Ohio, New Jersey, Delaware, New York, Connecticut, Virginia, West Virginia, Georgia, Massachusetts, Vermont, Indiana, Michigan, California, New Hampshire, and Maryland.
People often ask me what is the most important thing to look for when shopping for their first Babydoll lambs. I tell them that after you decide to move forward and get some Babydoll Southdown Sheep or Babydoll Lambs of their own, the most important thing to look for is not the color, look, or the price of the Babydoll lambs. The most important thing they want to find is good Babydoll lamb breeder that will be their for them if they ever need help. It is hard to understand how very important the breeder is unless you need their advice or help and you do not have it.
We are located in north east Carroll County Maryland just 20 miles north of Baltimore and 25 miles south of York Pennsylvania.
We are now accepting deposits for the upcoming Babydoll lambing season. Please give us a call if we can answer any questions about our Babydoll Southdown Sheep or Babydoll Lambs. Also please feel free to let us know if you would like to visit Sweetwater Farm and meet the Babydoll Southdown Sheep in person.
Please enjoy the pictures of our Babydoll Southdown Sheep and information you find on our web site.

Varsity Chili Dogs in Atlanta
are these really that good? also are the dogs all beef, all pork, or mixture of the two? and also is there a natural casing, in other words a snap to the dog?
I don't know about the ingredients or casing, but beware the Heavy Dog...I ordered it expecting chili + slaw + onions (the works, I guess) and what I got was a hot dog in a lake of chili.
They are your typical "southern" hot dog...no casing. Not sure what they are made of! LOL
I think they're great, but I have a nostalgic view of the place. In general, The Varsity seems to push people into 3 camps...those who have been going there for years and love the nostalgia, those who are new to the place, but buy into the nostagia and history, and those who just don't get it and don't like it. To each his own...
re: carolinadawg
I'm in the third camp. I thought the food was terrible. Basically, go down to the supermarket and get the cheapest white-bread buns, the cheapest mystery-meat generic wieners, and steam 'em till they're soggy. That's the Varsity.
re: designbot
Well, I guess you just don't get it! It's not the individual ingredients, it's the sum of all the ingredients as they come together on that red and white plate! These are not smoked sausages or bratwurst or anything like that, so they shouldn't be compared to them. They are scrumptious chili dogs like no other on the planet! That's OK though, we won't hold that against you! You could always try a chili dog at the Sonic or Dairy Queen!
re: gravyhound
I have heard that to be considered a great dog, it has to have the bite, or snap of the skin(and obviously great meat filling). But I am always amazed at the local traditions that take hold that sort of defy culinary convention. I was in Cinncinatti(sp?) lately and what they call chili is certainly not what anyone from any other part of the USA would call chili.
re: nyfoodjoe
I just had a chili dog, a slaw dog and rings. They were fantastic. The dogs, buns and condiment melt together in a completely ungourmet ooze of whitebreadiness. The rings, not fresh, had soaked up enough grease to prevent the adherence of any excess condiment, thus making the ten packets of ketchup and mustard I had squeezed an exercise in futility. I felt terrible for thirty minutes after but it was worth it. At least once every few years.
I don't know that the Varsity has ever released the specifics of their recipe. I do get a good laugh out of the fact that they advertise on-site that they fry in no cholesterol oil. Whatever the case, wash it down with a Frosted Orange and Fried Pie - can't get more southern that that!
re: erowan
Frankly, I think they are some of the poorest quality hot dogs on the market, but I still get one now and then, but they are not in a league with vienna, sabrett, or nathans. They are more like what you get at a carnival.
But the FO is fantastic
re: laurendlewis
that's awesome, varsity dogs at syongogue. i presume they're not kosher, but all beef sounds good now.
re: laurendlewis
The varsity dogs at synagogue are probably not the same as the ones you get at the Varsity. They have a catering arm which does kosher on request.
There is NO snap to the dog. IMHO, the snap is what differentiates a great dog from the others.
The Varsity had the best hot dogs on the planet until Frank Gordy died in 1983. He was the founder. His daughter took the place over and destroyed all the good recipes. The french fries and onion rings now taste like they were fried in water - no taste at all. The wonderful chili on the hot dogs is now unfit to eat. I ate there for 40 years and loved it. But the last time I went there, I couldn't eat anything they had on the menu - it was AWFUL!!!
I've been eating at The Varsity since '68 and disagree that the food has taken a downturn. However, I generally order the chili slaw dog, fries, and Frosted Orange. Can't speak for the rest of the menu.
Having traveled throughout the USA, I love all the regional variations of the hot dog, but The Varsity is still my #1 pick.
re: LaneyHaney
Any place that does that much volume the quality is bound to suck and that is what the Varsity does big time and besides that its filthy.
re: jellybear
The Varsity Is the Epitome of chili Dog The onion rings are perfect I've had hot dogs all over the country,and I really like Chicago dogs But the varsity in Atlanta and Nuway in Macon are the absolute bestyou can get.
re: onesawb
I love the Varsity, it is what it is. Stadium food minus the stadium. If you don't want the dog, try the cheese burger with pimiento cheese and def. the onion rings.

Oct 4, 2010This film disappointed me. I'm a fan of animated films, but this provided few thrills and the storyline was very slow and pointless. Perhaps it was the little kids in the cinema who were constantly saying "That wasn't funny" and shutting down every single joke that made me realise that this film doesn't even work for young children and the humour was predictable and only rarely put a smile on my face. It had its moments, but overall I thought this was a bore.… Expand
May 28, 2012The graphics are great, especially in 3-D. The plot is okay but boring. The characters and the voice acting is terrible. Ice Age 3 was generally a descent film, but its predecessors are way better.........
Jan 12, 2013Ridiculously predictable, corny and extremely childish, Ice Age 3 can only be enjoyed by children or the childish. This movie truly sucks in as many aspects I can think of.
Jan 5, 2013Comeone Blue Sky Studios, you're cabable of better than this. Scrat is okay; not as good as in Ice Age 2, I liked the scenes with him and that female Scratte, but don't worry, she doesn't return in Ice Age 4. Now, I really like the idea of exploring an underground world of Dinosaurs and searching for Sid and I really like the story and what Sid does, he is brilliant, Manny and Ellie are excited for their baby and Sid is jealous, so he goes taking 3 Dinosaur eggs to look after them, but he doesn't know how to (obviously) and it turns into a disaster and Sid is taken away, but I think they just ran out of ideas during the script or decided that 1 Dinosaur was appropriate and no other Dinosaurs to get in the way of the search for Sid and that they would have to avoid them, and then they could just not think of much, you will watch this and forget a lot of this in the end and it annoys me they don't even travel far in the underground world. There is only 2 dinosaurs the 2nd one turns up for a minute in the end to attack, it's stupid and a big contradiction towards the title and direction "DAWN OF THE DINOSAURS" a big step back for the Ice Age series. This is supposed to be the underground Dinosaur world not a jungle that happens to have a Dinosaur making babies, I expected better, we should all expect better than this. I like the story, Sid is entertaining and they had great ideas for Ice Age, but they just could not handle it well and especially screwed it up only putting in 1 Dinosaur and no others throughout and that's the main problem.… Expand
Jan 28, 2014More mundane, incoherent, and jumbled-up than any of the first two, 'Dawn of Dinosaurs' is an unnecessary sequel that permanently destroys the franchise, and any sequels.
Nov 16, 2013Ice Age 3 is a cool refreshment.
The movie isn't by any means spectacular, and can be tiresome at times. The very fact that its Ice Age 3 alone will have many irritated to say the least. It succeeds its comic aspect mainly do to the introduction of a few new characters that are very successful. The adventure exceeds the meltdown and the film flourishes at times. Overall its not good but it keeps from being roadkill.… Expand
Oct 14, 2014The third Ice Age is unfortunately a little bit worse, and feels unrealistic and might confuse kids about actuality, I'll admit that the dinosaurs look cool, and some of the fight scenes are really well done, but other than that there's just nothing.
Pretty much any sign of creative life gets left out in the cold in Ice Age: Dawn of the Dinosaurs, the monotonous, strictly by-the-numbers third edition of the wildly lucrative digitally animated franchise.
With appreciably greater emphasis on action than its predecessors, and clever use of 3-D trickery to enhance storytelling as well as offer spectacle, Ice Age: Dawn of the Dinosaurs could prove the third time really is the charm.
It involves some of the best use of 3-D I've seen in an animated feature. It also introduces a masterstroke that essentially allows the series to take place anywhere: There is this land beneath the surface of the earth, you see...

Disadvantages: Uncomfy beds
...I have just been to Krakow in Poland for my stag do and this is a review of the hotel that I stayed in while in Krakow. For those of you who are looking for some juicy gossip from the stag may I just remind you before I go any further about the first rule of a stag which is 'What happens on the stag, stays on the stag.'

Departing 23L and shedding some brake dust as the brakes are applied just prior the gear being retracted.
The Beluga still never fails to impress.
The sight of four JT3D-7 engines creates a real sense of nostalgia.
Departing from a very cold Manchester with a heavy coat of de-icing fluid over the wings.
About to line up on 23L with an obvious coating of frost.

Going Back in Time: Iconic Bags of the '70s
The '70s were coined as the "Me Decade," and this emphasis on individuality brought about a wide range of styles from that of groovy hippies to DVF's iconic wrap dress to glam rock David Bowie. One movement defined bag design more than any other, though – feminism.
Going Back in Time: Iconic Bags of the '60s
I may not have been around for the Swinging '60s (I'm not that old!), but there's a lot to love about the generation – Twiggy, white go-go boots, Balenciaga, the Beatles, Catherine Deneuve in Belle du Jour, and of course, bags! This was the decade when women finally broke out of the tweed jacket/chain bag combo and embraced their personal style.
Top 5 Daily Bags: Bare Necessities
You know you need it, and you know the one you probably already own is worn to bits. Despite what many designers seem to think, most of us just want an easy daily bag to throw on our shoulders without a moment of thought.
Design Through the Decades: The 1980s
When it came to 1980s fashion, bigger was always better. Head banger bands like White Snake and Skid Row fueled this trend with video after video of girls rocking huge hair and writhing on cars in nothing but skimpy bikinis and white stilettos. As a high schooler, I wasn't allowed to have pumps (I couldn't even wear my high-tops or jellies except on the weekends).
Kate Moss and Olivia Munn Do the LBD Justice: Black is the New Black
The LBD is a year-round staple, that much we know, but getting the summertime LBD just right isn't always the most effortless feat.
Best Celeb Bags of the Week: Playing Favorites
When you're rushing around NYC like Miranda Kerr, a mini bag is the only way to go. I love Louis Vuitton's toned down Monceau BB (at Louis Vuitton for $1,720). Okay, bright pink patent isn't exactly toned down – I'm talking monogram-wise. And remember, Loeffler Randall has a Frugal option!
A Jolt of Cobalt: Blue Ribbon Winners
As much as I love cobalt, it's one of those colors that you only need a little of to make a statement. Anything more than that would cause serious shock and awe (and not the good kind). You pack a bigger punch with a jolt of electric color rather than a full-on current, so choose just one piece to layer with…
Top 5 Loafer Pumps: An Indelicate Balance
This style is a little confusing to me. The awkward mix of masculine and feminine seems incongruous, but I guess that's the appeal. I would stick with ladylike pairings to add a sense of delicacy to these chunky heels. While they're seen most often in the office, try to have fun with them when you're […]
Gucci Bright Bit Patent Leather Shoulder Bag: Arm Candy
I love a candy-colored patent leather bag, especially when it's been miniaturized! This is arm candy in the truest sense. The iconic horse bit closure reveals its designer without having to emblazon GUCCI on the front, making this perfect for the Snob who prefers not to flash labels. You want a bag to be chic […]

Winnipeg Free Press - PRINT EDITION
Revenue down, earnings up at FP Canadian Newspapers
REVENUE was down slightly and net earnings up slightly in the third quarter at FP Canadian Newspapers Limited Partnership (FPLP), the company that owns the Winnipeg Free Press, Brandon Sun, Carillon in Steinbach, the Carberry Express News and several other regional papers and related online properties.
Publicly traded FP Newspapers Inc. owns securities entitling it to 49 per cent of the distributable cash of FPLP.
FP Newspapers Inc. had net earnings of $1.0 million, or $0.143 per share, during the three months ended Sept. 30, 2012, unchanged from the same quarter last year.
FPLP's revenue for the quarter was $26.3 million, a decrease of $0.1 million or 0.3 per cent from the same three months in the prior year. Advertising revenue was $17.5 million, a $200,000 or one per cent decrease compared with the same period last year.
Circulation revenue was $6.7 million, a decrease of $100,000 from the third quarter of 2011
EBITDA was lower by $200,000 or 3.7 per cent compared with the third quarter last year, but excluding restructuring charges of $400,000, increased by $200,000 or 5.4 per cent
FPLP's net earnings for the three months ended Sept. 30, 2012 were $2.9 million, an increase of $0.1 million, primarily due to lower finance costs.
FP Newspapers Inc. shares closed down four cents in modest trading to $4.05.

Peyton Manning's two biggest targets are a pair of promising young receivers who have already made their mark in the NFL despite spending lots of time on the sideline. Neither Demaryius Thomas nor Eric Decker has put together a complete season in the NFL - or, for that matter, a full offseason. Both missed much of the lead-up to their rookie year in 2010 with foot injuries. Last year there was the lockout, plus another injury for Thomas. Decker shined for two months last season but faded after Tim Tebow took over at quarterback for Kyle Orton. Thomas missed the first half of the season with a torn Achilles tendon and a shattered thumb but was unstoppable down the stretch. Now they're building a rhythm and rapport with Manning.
