"GIVE FROM THE HEART, BUT PLEASE GIVE SMART"
South Carolinians from all income levels respond quickly and generously when they see a true need. We all want to experience the joy of giving, to assist charitable organizations in accomplishing their goals - whether it's feeding and clothing the poor, disaster relief, conducting medical research, supporting the arts and education, or any other worthy cause.
Not all contributions, however, go directly to serve charitable causes. If you are asked for a donation, chances are the caller is a paid, professional solicitor taking a portion of your contribution as payment for their services.
How Can You Recognize Unscrupulous Charities???
Bills or invoices mailed to you from charities you've not pledge money to.
Evasive, vague answers to specific questions about the charity and how the money will be used.
Words making up the charity's name that sound like a more well-known charity.
Avoid giving solicitors your credit card numbers.
Refusing to mail you further information. Requesting cash donations.
Emotional appeals and high-pressure tactics to get you to make a quick decision or feel guilty about not contributing.
Understand Facts About Charitable Giving
A true professional solicitor must disclose to you at the initial time of solicitation:
that he/she is a paid solicitor;
the name of the charity;
the location of the charity;
the purpose of the charity; and
the registered true name of the professional fundraising organization for which he/she works.
If you receive a call from a professional solicitor and these disclosures were not made, contact investigators with the Secretary of State's Office at (803) 734-1728.
Questions You Should Ask
Are both the charitable organization and the professional fundraiser you are working for registered with the Secretary of State's Office? All charitable organizations that intend to solicit contributions within South Carolina or have contributions solicited on their behalf must file a registration statement with the Secretary of State unless they qualify for an exemption.
Will my contribution be used for services in my local area or state? Just because your donation is mailed to a post office box in South Carolina does not mean it will be used in South Carolina.
Is my contribution tax deductible? Contributions are tax deductible if the organization has 501(c)(3) status with the Internal Revenue Service.
What percentage of my contribution goes to charitable cause? According to the Better Business Bureau Standards for Charity Accountability, 65% or more is an acceptable amount.
Will you mail me a copy of the charity's most recent financial report, as well as the professional solicitor's current registration certificate on file with the Secretary of State? These must be mailed to you within 15 business days of your request.
If you are satisfied with the answers given to the above questions, you can opt to give then, or tell the caller that you would like to further investigate their cause by researching the charity on any of the links provided at www.scsos.com/Public_Charities/Helpful_Websites_for_Charities. A reputable charity will welcome your further interest and will not rush you to make a contribution.
Facts Regarding Public Safety Fundraisers
Public Services, like firefighting and police protection, are paid for by tax dollars, not donated funds. Even if you say "no" to donating, your local law enforcement officers and firefighters still provide services.
Who's Not Defined as "Charitable Organizations"?
The following are not included in the definition of "charitable organizations" and therefore do not have to register with the Secretary of State under SC Code of Laws 33-56-30:
bona fide religious organizations; and
candidates for national, state, or local office or a political party or other groups required to file information with the Federal Election Commission or State Election Commission.
South Carolina Secretary of State's Scrooges and Angels List
The Scrooges and Angels list is the Secretary of State's annual listing of local, regional and national charities that represent some of the best and worst of charitable giving. The list's purpose is to encourage "good giving." To see the complete list of the ten Scrooges and ten Angels for the current year, click here visit the South Carolina Secretary of State's website.
Information provided on this page by the South Carolina Secretary of State's Office. For more information or to report possible fraud, please contact the Batesburg-Leesville Police Department at (803) 532-4408 or the Secretary of State's Office at (803) 734-1728.

Family's story of struggle with seniors care hospital shocking
Media releases | November 07, 2012
Families should be empowered to address care problems through family councils
EDMONTON—An Edmonton family spoke out today about the on-going systemic issues they are having with Villa Caritas Hospital, an Edmonton seniors care facility run by Covenant Health.â��I have sadly come to the point where I feel I have no other recourse but to speak out publicly about my experience, to try to advocate for my husband Jack Rudichuk, who has been in Villa Caritas acute care hospital since March 2011,â�� said Huguette Hebert, his wife of 36 years. â��I have been systematically disempowered in my dealings with Villa Caritas Hospital, and now I desperately want him to be transferred out to the U of A hospital so that he can get the neurological assessment and care he urgently needs.â��The family has been struggling with an institution that has disempowered them by:
Threatening to remove the wife�s guardianship when she refused to pay $5000 for a larger sized wheelchair for her husband who is six foot four.
Calling security to have the wife removed from the building when she wanted to be present while her husband was being changed as she was very concerned about cuts and bruising on his body.
Refusing to assess or explain why he had serious bruises on his body, saying that taking X-rays would be a waste of money.
Finally, despite appealing to the Minister of Health and other government bodies, the facility still refuses to transfer him to the U of A hospital for a neurological assessment & treatment, even though it is clear that he has been having neurological incidents, potentially mini-strokes and seizures.
�These powerful personal stories demonstrate how the system is failing far too many families, and reflect why it is so important that families are empowered to advocate for the needs of their loved ones in all seniors care facilities�, says, Bill Moore-Kilgannon, Executive Director of Public Interest Alberta. �It is time that the Health Minister takes action to set up family care councils where these serious issues can be addressed in every publicly funded care facility.� -30-Media Contacts:Bill Moore-Kilgannon (780) 993-3736

Under Secretary for Arms Control and International Security Ellen Tauscher today announced that President Obama has ordered a comprehensive safety review of all 104 active nuclear plants in the United States.
She discussed also how the United States government is working to ensure that nuclear energy is done safely without increasing global proliferation threats.
She highlighted that the March 11 triple disaster in Japan – where an earthquake led to a massive tsunami that in turn created a nuclear crisis – serves as a tragic reminder of the challenges we all face. She added that as the Government of Japan engages in large-scale decontamination measures to eliminate the radioactive materials present in the environment, residents of the area around the power station in Fukushima continue to face an unclear future and struggle with worries about radiation they cannot see, smell, or taste.
According to Ms. Tauscher, the Nuclear Regulatory Commission has already completed its near-term inspections and made recommendations for improving our regulatory framework and safety procedures. At the international level, the Administration is urging all nuclear countries to update their nuclear power plant safety assessments, to be prepared for scenarios that include multiple severe hazards, and to give particular attention to the IAEA safety standards.
She stressed that the United States supported the Action Plan on Nuclear Safety that was approved by the IAEA Board of Governors and endorsed by the IAEA General Conference.

Voices / Education And The Racial Divide

Education and the Racial Divide
When it came to education in North Carolina, spending for white and black students was far from equal. Starting in 1915, a collaborative effort of wealthy citizens, foundations and grassroots leaders helped to enrich the education of African American students in a variety of ways including building new, modern facilities and developing programs for teachers to learn new techniques. These regional models helped close the gap between whites and African Americans.

Out With Taiwan in with Mainland China
Thomson Fontaine
The news that Dominica had broken relations with Taiwan and established diplomatic links with Mainland China was widely reported in the foreign press. Indeed, major newspapers in the United States including the Wall Street Journal, The Financial Times and the Washington Post carried the report.
Elsewhere in the world, the British Broadcasting Corporation, the Japanese Kyoto News Agency, and several outlets in Mainland China and Taiwan reported on the event. The obvious question is why does the world care how a tiny nation of 70 000 people pursues its foreign policy agenda.
I suspect the answer lies in world interest in the continuing titanic power struggle between Taiwan and Mainland China, and the measures that China is willing to take to stake its claim to what it considers its �renegade province�. In the continuing struggle, which began in 1949, the stakes have never been higher. China, a nuclear power has threathened force in the past and the United States endorses an unwritten agreement to come to Taiwan�s aid if attacked.
The announcement by Dominica was made just days after the Taiwanese President Chen Shui-bian narrowly won re-election in a contest where China actively supported the contender, Lien Chan, who appeared more sympathetic to China�s interests. Chen on the other hand is viewed by the Chinese as attempting to promote Taiwanese independence, a move they have vowed to resist even at the cost of war.
And so it is that Dominica have placed itself squarely in the middle of the ongoing test of wills between the two countries. With Dominica�s defection, only twenty-six countries now have diplomatic relations with Taiwan of which twelve is from the Caribbean.
The willingness of the Chinese to dole out such a huge reward to Dominica (over US $100 million), hints at their strategy of enticing the remaining countries to switch allegiance. Conceivably, a completely isolated Taiwan would have less of a moral claim to notions of independence.
Taiwan�s foreign minister Chien stressed that the ROC has no intention of competing with Beijing in the "dollar diplomacy" game. He went on to say that mainland China's diplomatic offensive against Taiwan will not help cross-Taiwan Strait relations and will not gain the approval of Taiwan's 23 million people. "This will only make cross-strait relations worse," he added.
Political posturing aside, the Taiwanese government appeared genuinely wounded by Dominica�s decision. A flabbergasted Chien observed that Dominica�s Prime Minister Roosevelt Skerrit had requested US$58 million in various aid programs shortly after he assumed office in January following Pierre Charles' abrupt death.
"Those demands far exceeded the existing cooperative programs between our two countries and most of the programs had nothing to do with Dominica's national development and people's livelihood," Chien said.
In the negotiation process, Chien claimed that Skerrit had on many occasions threatened to switch diplomatic allegiance to Beijing if Taiwan failed to satisfy his demand. Chien noted that since establishing diplomatic ties with Dominica in 1983, his government has assisted Dominica in various national development projects, including stationing a five-member technical mission since 1985 to help the country develop agriculture and aquaculture.
The Taiwanese government promises to seek repayment of more than US$1 million in outstanding loans to Dominica through legal procedures, and will evacuate its embassy in Dominica.
Whatever the motivation and repercussions of Dominica�s move, no one can argue that Dominica�s young Prime Minister made a masterful stoke in neatly exploiting a potentially explosive relationship, to his country�s good.

Q: Form confirmation ValidationError for similar objects Before saving an object, I'd like to add a validation warning message to ask the end user whether he/she does want to continue or not, given similar data returned from the database.
For example, when the end user is adding a Hospital, and one or more Hospital objects already exists in that zipcode, then a ValidationError should be provided saying something like Following hospitals in zipcode XX were already found: YYY, ZZZZ. Hit submit again to save if you're sure you want to add another one.
I tried to achieve this using the below form, by adding a field Verified (set as HiddenInput). It seems though I cannot modify the field.
class CreateHospitalForm(forms.ModelForm):

    verified = forms.BooleanField(widget=forms.HiddenInput, required=False)

    def clean(self):
        cleaned_data = self.cleaned_data

        zipcode = cleaned_data.get('zipcode')
        verified = cleaned_data.get('verified')

        existing_hospitals = Hospital.objects.filter(zipcode=zipcode)

        if existing_hospitals and not verified:
            cleaned_data['verified'] = True  # <<< here I'd like to set verified to True so I don't get the below warning a 2nd time when saving the form
            raise ValidationError(u"Following hospitals already exist in this zipcode: " + ', '.join([str(x) for x in existing_hospitals] + ". Are you sure you want to add another one? Then hit submit again.")

        return cleaned_data

    class Meta:
        model = Hospital
        fields = ('name', 'street_and_number', 'zipcode', 'town', 'country', 'email', 'web', 'comments', 'verified')

Any idea how to get around this issue?
Using Django 1.7.
EDIT: My view is very standard and goes below, as requested:
class CreateHospitalView(generic.CreateView):

    model = Hospital
    template_name = 'hosp_add.html'
    form_class = CreateHospitalForm

    def get_success_url(self):
        return reverse('hosp_detail', args=(self.object.id,))

A: Here's your answer. Update your clean method to this (see comments in code).
def clean(self):
    cleaned_data = self.cleaned_data

    zipcode = cleaned_data.get('zipcode')
    verified = cleaned_data.get('verified')

    existing_hospitals = Hospital.objects.filter(zipcode=zipcode)

    if existing_hospitals and not verified:
        self.data = self.data.copy()  # self.data is immutable, so we make a copy to get around this
        self.data['verified'] = True  # instead of self.cleaned_data['verified'] = True
        raise ValidationError(u"Following hospitals already exist in this zipcode: " + ', '.join([str(x) for x in existing_hospitals] + ". Are you sure you want to add another one? Then hit submit again.")

    return cleaned_data

HOMELESS Grenfell Tower victims will receive at least £5,500 in a Government payout.
Downing Street said desperate families got £500 in cash on Sunday to be followed by a £5,000 bank transfer tomorrow — after victims told of getting just £10 a day so far.
No10 officials said support workers would ensure people could access the cash — including those who may not have a bank account.
In a statement, Theresa May added that the Government was doing everything possible to help those affected by the blaze.
So far at least 58 people are presumed dead. Hundreds of survivors have been forced from the charred remains of the Kensington tower after Wednesday's inferno.
The Prime Minister spoke with residents on Saturday to hear their stories of bravery and tragedy.
Shortly after the Downing Street meeting, the PM admitted support in the immediate aftermath of the fire "was not good enough".
She has been criticised for her response after appearing to dither over meeting residents and an appearance on Newsnight deemed as "cold".
In a fresh attack, London Mayor Sadiq Khan said the local community was "frustrated" and "angry".
"The tragedy we're seeing is because of the consequences of mistakes and neglect from politicians, from the council and from the Government."
Mrs May, who has since ordered more boots on the ground at the scene, is said to have "welled up" after hearing harrowing accounts from people caught up in the fire.
One of those emotional stories was given by an 11-year-old girl who was evacuated from a nearby block and attended the meeting at Number 10.
She is reported to have persuaded Mrs May that survivors be given a final say on what happens to the Grenfell site.
The payout announcement comes after claims that survivors were being given just £10-a-day.
Kensington and Chelsea MP Emma Dent Coad slammed the tiny assistance payments, calling on them to be "addressed immediately".
And some terrified residents have refused temporary accommodation in high rise housing over fears a blaze could strike again.
Yesterday First Secretary of State Damian Green vowed the Government would cover "further expenses" for the victims.
He told Radio 4: "Obviously one imagines there will be further expenses of various kinds, that of course we will meet."
A £5 million fund has been set up for emergency supplies, food and clothing.


Thai traditional costumes are differentiated according to the city and the ruler of each historical period. Thai clothes can be classified according to six distinct periods of history and style of dress; beginning with the 11th Buddhist century. Previously, traditional Thai clothes were worn daily; however, they are now only worn on auspicious functions such as Thai traditional marriage ceremonies.
We are confident that our wedding services are second to none in Thailand and we have experience organizing and conducting ceremonies at all popular plus less-traveled wedding destinations in the country.

Spectrogram V5 has been available as a download on this site, which I beleived to be the last freware version. Recently I had an email from Jim W who has informed me that before being abandoned, Spectrogram was again made freeware for the final few versions.
This program is difficult, if not impossible to find on the web now, so I am grateful to Jim W for taking the trouble to send me the program and thus making it available for all.
The program can be downloaded from my links page.
Just a quick update. The site still continues to attract a surprising number of visitors despite no fresh updates, so I will continue to keep the site live as long as there is a demand.
The reason for this update is that while housekeeping on my PC, I found notes & recordings of a station from 2014 that I thought deserved to be preserved rather than deleted - so it has been added purely as an historical record.
The station was nicknamed the "Irregular Dash". The notes and reports on this station were originally featured in the ENIGMA newsletter at the time. I hope you find it of interest.
Many of the stations on this site were complete mysteries at the time they were first featured. It was a time when the iron curtain was still in place and the USSR was a closed book. Since then, with the collapse of the USSR - as well as the growth of the internet - still in its early nerdy days then, much more information has come out about many of these stations, although some still remain a mystery.
For some time I have had it in mind to update many of these pages in the light of the wealth of knowledge we now have, much of it due to the dedicated work of short wave listeners & enthusiasts. (Thank you to all of you). That is still my goal - but I have still not managed to achieve this yet. Nevertheless, if this has been a first visit for you & you would like to know more there is much more information out there, certainly on the more well-known stations such as the Buzzer and the Pip. You just need to do a search on the internet.
Another update has been made to the The "Twenty Minute Idler" page. Following the reactivation of this station on 5305kHz - reported by Matt, G7OBR in January 2014, checks were made on the other frequencies the station had utilised in the past. In November 2014 another of the frequencies, 4301kHz was discovered to be active in parallel with 5305kHz.
Once again, thanks to all of you who have emailed me. The updates are sporadic at best & not all pages are up to date. However, there is content on these pages that, I believe, is of historical interest & not easily found elsewhere, if at all, & in this respect I am most grateful to all of those people who have given me their kind permission to allow their knowledge & work to be made available via this site..
Updates have been made to "The Crackle" & "The Backward Music Station" pages following new reports & information. The "Links" have been checked, obselete links removed & a couple of new links added.
As always. I am most grateful to all of you who have sent in comments, reports & suggestions concerning the content of this site. I am always surprised at the numbers of visitors who still visit these pages, despite the lack of new content or updates, but in particular, I am immensely pleased by the number of new or less-experienced listeners who have told me how their interest in short wave listening has encouraged or been enhanced by these pages.
Firstly, news of a rare event. A station thought to have been extinct has recently been rediscovered. The "Twenty Minute Idler" has been rediscovered thanks to some sharp monitoring from Matt, G7OBR who emailed me at the end of 2013. Missing since 2010, and though active now on only one frequency, the station has definitely returned to the air.
Yet another new site design and layout. This one has been in use for some while now, and enables all the features and articles available from the main page, so hopefully will make everything easier to access.
I would like to say a sincere thank you to all of those people who have taken the trouble to email me. Some are asking for information, others offering it and some who have said how useful or interesting they have found the site.
As I have said before, I consider myself to be the custodian of this information which started from an 'Oddities' collection from the original ENIGMA monitoring group, and has been revised and added to over the years. Much of the information is perhaps obselete as the stations have ceased, but still has an historical value, and will continue to be kept on line as a unique resource for such stations.
I have used a complete new site design and layout from Sepember 2008. The old site was becoming cumbersome and unwieldy due to the way in which information and pages have been added over the 10 years this site has been on-line and while I'm not entirely happy with this layout, it is a great improvement on the last version, and hopefully, easier to navigate.
Any remaining problems are due to the way my pages are collated and not caused by the excellent template, which was provided free by Andreas Viklund.
I find it amazing that many of the "oddities" featured on this site have been operating continuously over the 10 years since this site was started. Some of these have been identified and explained - some remain mysteries to this day.
Many of the emails I have received over the years congratulate me on the site. However, I am mainly the collator and custodian of much of the information and knowledge contained here. It is largely through the work and knowledge of shortwave listeners and enthusiasts around the world, building on the original core of information from the original ENIGMA group, that has made this site what it is today. My sincere thanks to all of you - you know who you are.
A very long time since my last update. All "Radio Links" have been checked and updated, and obselete links removed. The "ENIGMA 2000" page has been updated with a recent newsletter and the latest Control List.
The "Squeaky Wheel" page has been updated to include the latest information.
Finally, The "About Me" page has been updated.
A long time since my last update. Due to a move to broadband, the site now has a new address, which has been operating alongside the old one. The old site is now permamently closed.
The subterranea part of the site has been closed. It was originally my intention to develop the subterranea side, but this has now been done by others far better than I could have done.
I have added a short introduction to "Numbers Stations" , a short history of "ENIGMA" and an introductory page for "ENIGMA 2000" .
The "Radio Links" has been entirely rewritten and subject headers added.
Several new stations have been added, along with recordings, and most other pages updated. A new link has also been added to the "Woodpecker" pages.
Many thanks to ENIGMA 2000 for their help and support, and to all of those people who have contributed to this site - either directly to me or through ENIGMA 2000.
A new article on "The Russian Woodpecker" from the 1980's. This topic still generates the most interest on the site, and I am pleased to be able to add not only the letter, but a plot of the signal to the website - thanks to Peter Martinez, the author and Chris Kirk, a visitor to the website who provided the article - My sincere thanks to both of you. Hope everyone enjoys this new article. Access from my "Woodpecker" pages or directly to the letter and plot from this link.
A new link to Scott Grant's subterranea site "uksub.com" has been added to "Subterranea Links" .
All the sound samples of stations have now been changed from RealAudio files to MP3 format. Due to the updates made by RealAudio on their program, older versions of the program would not play new samples - a ridiculous situation. I was also never happy with the way RealAudio took control of your system.
Previously there was no viable alternative, since WAV files were far too large for web use. Now free WAV to MP3 converters are available, it is easy to obtain MP3 files from audio. An added bonus is that the files are now even smaller than the RealAudio files, should play quicker and you don't need to download the RealAudio player, which was getting huge!
Everyone should now be able to play these files. Please email me should you find any problems.
Updated link for "Abandoned Tube Stations" - Thanks for the email Chris!
Another new signal added to the site. Called "Squeaky Wheel" . Have a listen to the sound sample to see where its nickname came from!
Two more sound samples have been added, One to "The Time Signal". , and another to the "Slot Machine" .
An alternative HAARP site has been added to the "Radio Links" page.
Another well overdue update, thanks for your patience. Thanks also to all of you who have emailed with questions, answers and information.
The main news is that a new signal, called "Slot Machine" appeared in the closing months of 2000, and has been added to the site.
Next, the Home page for the site has been altered to make it easier for visitors to navigate around the site.
Finally, changes have been made to "The Time Signal". This signal is still heard from time to time, two more frequencies have been added but this can pop up anywhere from 3MHz to 7MHz (and possibly beyond!).
This update is well overdue, and I thank those concerned for their patience, and apologise for the delay.
Great News - "The Grasshopper" signal has been positively identified. Visit the page for full details.
There has been a lot of interest in the articles on "The Russian Woodpecker" transmissions of the 1970s / '80s.
Thanks to all of you who emailed me. I have now been able to add another technical article on the signal, and a link to an article on the "Russian Woodpecker Hunting Club".
This is I believe, the only resource collection on the web for information on "The Woodpecker", thanks to all of the contributors for their assistance.
Finally, thanks to visitors to the site. The number of visitors has far exceeded my expectations.
Happy New Year to you all.

The biggest stories that shaped the restaurant industry this year.
Consumer Trends December 2012 By Barney Wolf
flickr/Bonnie Natko
Many New Yorkers were opposed to the sugary beverage ban.
Our athletes went to the Olympics, our science went to Mars, and our people went to the polls. But what of the restaurant industry in 2012? These dozen items from the year had the biggest impact on the foodservice landscape and shaped the industry for a potentially game-changing 2013.
An Economy in Flux
The economic recovery isn't lighting a fire under anyone's feet, but the economy did at least improve, albeit slightly.
As of August, the National Restaurant Association's (NRA) Restaurant Performance Index had been positive for nine consecutive months. It has since been weakening, however, indicating operators are less optimistic about economic conditions going into 2013.
"In the winter quarter [of 2012], we started to see things looking good," says Bonnie Riggs, restaurant analyst with NPD Group, a Chicago market research company. "We thought we turned the corner. But then gasoline prices increased and people pulled back."
The Congressional Budget Office's outlook is for the economy to grow less than 2 percent in 2013. The Conference Board, a business group, is slightly more optimistic, estimating growth at 2.2 percent.
However, if Congress fails to avert a series of tax hikes and budget cuts due in January—the so-called "fiscal cliff"—analysts warn another recession could ensue, which could undo any kind of progress quick-service operators have made.
Health Headaches and Solutions
Health issues continue to impact restaurants, both in menu development and how operators deal with the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (PPACA), also known as "Obamacare."
The U.S. Supreme Court this year upheld the constitutionality of most of PPACA.
Many restaurants may need to undergo some significant cost analyses next year to prepare for a wide range of regulations scheduled to begin in 2014.
"We're going to see a lot of financial modeling going forward, and deciding how to manage the costs," says Dennis Lombardi, executive vice president of foodservice strategies at WD Partners, a Columbus, Ohio, design and consulting firm. "It seems the way it may be playing out is to find ways to keep employee hours down and make more of them part-timers."
One portion of the act that may go into effect in 2013 requires chain restaurants with 20 or more locations to display calories on menuboards.
Many companies have decided not to wait for the law's implementation, though, including McDonald's. In September, all of McDonald's 14,000-plus U.S. restaurants began listing calorie counts on menuboards.
The proactive move by McDonald's "is a real positive," says Darren Tristano, executive vice president of Technomic Inc., a Chicago consulting and market research firm.
The calorie numbers "may be more of a shock at first, but when [consumers] return, they will still want to indulge," Tristano says. "That's what you do when you go out."
Meanwhile, all types of limited-service operators began offering better-for-you alternatives, from oatmeal to sweet potato fries.
The Big Soda Ban
Any consumer who plans to visit a restaurant in New York City in March or after shouldn't expect to buy sugar-sweetened beverages larger than 16 ounces. They're outlawed.
In a stated bid to combat obesity, the city's Board of Health instituted the ban at eateries, movie theaters, and other venues.
Restaurants call the action unfair, in part because it still allows larger drinks to be purchased at retail outlets and convenience stores. Whether the ban sweeps across the country, like the city's earlier action against trans fats, is still up in the air.
"We'll have to take a wait-and-see approach," Technomic's Darren Tristano says. "I suspect if history serves us, it will likely become a political issue … and likely will spread to other cities."
Commodity Costs Rise
The most severe drought in a quarter century has had a serious impact on U.S. agriculture and food prices. The damage done to corn and other crops was extensive and resulted in higher direct and indirect costs.
Many ranchers are running out of grass. Unable to grow enough feed crops—or unwilling to pay for higher priced feed—they are thinning their herds by selling cattle early. That will likely result in fewer cattle going to market next year, making beef and other proteins more expensive, according to the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA).
Wholesale beef prices were already up 10.5 percent by 2012's third quarter, while poultry prices increased 11.5 percent. Heat stress and higher feed costs are expected to reduce pork production as well, the department says.
"If you look at the USDA forecast for a year ago, there was no contingency for a drought of this severity and duration," says Hudson Riehle, senior vice president of the NRA's Research and Knowledge Group.
Interactive Imitation
Consumers increasingly want to know more about what's in their food, and also desire the ability to customize their dishes more than ever before. For years, quick-service concepts such as Chipotle and Subway have capitalized on this desire by giving guests the ability to craft their own dishes, choosing from an array of fresh ingredients.
In 2012, this build-your-own strategy continued to become more rule than exception, expanding into categories like pizza and even ethnic concepts. Newer brands, such as Pie Five, Atlanta's Uncle Maddio's, and Washington, D.C.'s Amsterdam Falafelshop, are now thriving on the model.
"We expect to see this basic model growing," Tristano says. "Customers want to be part of the process, and the visual impact is important. Interactivity engages the customer. This is an emotional connection that makes loyal fans of these restaurants."
A New Kind of Trade Down
Most of the restaurant industry suffered during the recession, but fast-casual restaurants still performed well. Folks may not have been eating out as often, but when they did, they were looking for quality and value. Many found those attributes at Chipotle, Panera Bread, and their fast-casual peers.
Numerous full-service restaurant companies took notice.
"Casual-dining chains continue to look at whether they have a limited-service opportunity," Lombardi says. "It allows them to extend the reach of their brand, and in some cases move into areas where full service may not work as well."
Abuelo's Mexican Restaurant is one of the latest casual chains to open a fast-casual offshoot, which it did this year with its Abuelo's Taqueria in Lubbock, Texas. The menu items and pricing are focused on promoting frequent dining.
The opening comes on the heels of several new ventures launched by casual chains in late 2011, including Red Robin's Burger Works and Pizza Inn's Pie Five.
Pie Five, which makes handcrafted pizzas in five minutes, has more than a half-dozen corporate-owned locations in the Dallas area.
"We will be looking at other markets [in 2013] from a corporate standpoint, as well as domestic and international franchising," says Madison Jobe, senior vice president and chief development officer for Pie Five and Pizza Inn.
Other chains launching fast-casual units included Steak 'n Shake, with its Signature unit in New York; Shoney's, with Shoney's On the Go; FATZ, with Tablefields Market Kitchen; and global beef bowl giant Yoshinoya, with Asiana Grill Yoshinoya.

My dad seems to have two of anything he needs, you should see our garage, it is a Dewalt, Hilti, Craftsman, and Mastercraft stock room. Roller tool chests line the one wall. Not to mention my own tools.
So tools, the go to for most people, he does not need.
I got him a pair of Sanuks, a beercan chicken BBQ rack, $25 gift car for Lee Valley, and a new car powercord for his GPS. Simple, easy.

Every share on your EVO can be configured using one of a few different "modes." Each of these modes exists in EVO specifically to offer a higher level of functionality with various professional media applications like Premiere Pro and Avid Media Composer.
Because such applications are continuously updated and new features are added by their manufacturers, our recommendations on which Mode to use may change.
The NAS & Project Sharing page in your EVO GUI lists the available modes for each of your shares as well as some general recommendations. This article details our current NLE-specific recommendations.
The ShareBrowser Client software provides Avid file system emulation on the client, so there is no need for a permission-restrictive mode on the EVO. Please see our Configuration Guide for Avid Media Composer for more details.
The EVO will watch for write access to Adobe project files on the network shares and automatically lock them. The ShareBrowser software allows users to manage these locks from their workstations.
More than one approach is possible for FCP X in a shared environment with EVO. Each method provides the Project Locking option, which should be chosen in order for user-specific locks to be displayed and managed by ShareBrowser.
Libraries are consolidated by default, but projects and media can be separated, allowing the media to be stored on a high-bandwidth volume, while the smaller project files are available for sharing on an NFS volume.
This has historically been the preferred method for a shared Final Cut workflow, but it is now possible to instead use the SMB protocol, which allows all content to be stored on a single network share.
The EVO will watch for write access to Pro Tools project files on the network shares and automatically lock them. The ShareBrowser software allows users to manage these locks from their workstations.
In the Unlocked mode, all users have R/W access. In the Locked mode, new files and folders will be assigned full permissions for the creator and read only for everyone else. The creator can use ShareBrowser Desktop Client or the EVO File Navigator and manually "release" their files or folders so that another user can be the new owner, or so that others can also read/write.
EVO has a default list of file types for which it will automatically apply the project locking rules, but this list can be customized at any time. Any number of file types can be added to the file masking list, so that the same locking behavior can be applied to Photoshop, Microsoft Office applications, or any other collaborative workflow where it would be beneficial to protect specific file types.

Interview with Lt. Cesar Mize on Sons of the American Legion Radio. Interviewed by Mr. Ken Kraetzer.


"In 1897, troops from the greatest empire the world had ever seen marched down London's mall for Queen Victoria's diamond jubilee. Seventy years later, Britain had government health care, a government-owned car industry, massive government housing, and it was a shriveled high-unemployment socialist basket-case living off the dwindling cultural capital of its glorious past. In 1945, America emerged from the Second World War as the preeminent power on earth. Seventy years later . . . Let's not go there."
Why did our ancestors leave Europe? Why today do so many here in America want to be just like Europe?
The rise and fall of the State usually follows the same pattern while the masses for aeons have been but beasts of burden. True liberation is founded upon Truth, and thus it is the mind that needs to be freed from untruth. A slave that does not know he is a slave will defend his slavery -- and yours!.
Robert, to my understanding, capitalism (laissez-faire investment in an at natural law / justice free market with tangible money of intrinsic value = gold & silver coin for example) has not been possible since at least 1912. By, "reciprocity", do you reference an ability to contract because, a lawfully binding contract is an element of capitalism? Is your reference to a false fabrication such as crony-capitalism just shortened by not using "crony"? How are you re-defining "capitalism"? How has capitalism played a role in the U.S.A.'s turn from liberty to socialism and the resulting decline in economic prowess and over-all influence? Robert, your statement plays well in certain theocratic enclaves but, how is it supposed to be received in an audience of knowledge outside that enclave?
At the time of Queen Victoria's Diamond Jubilee, Great Britain was on the verge of all-out class warfare, a direct result of the huge inequities between the working class and the established plutocracy. Mark Steyn is right: Let's not go there. Bring some social justice back in to give our system balance.
Such are the old nations of kings and queens, and their privileged sovereignty and liberty. Even Stuart Mills apposed capitalism, and leaned toward social liberty. It is through and by capitalism, the individual sovereign in the USA " middle class " Rises. The practice of Honest Economics, given long enough, will maintain their integrity with faithfulness to one another, " A more Perfect Union. Our Secular Republican form of government consisting of individual and state sovereigns, is under siege ! Among the educated and well learned, their is the fear of loss, and that without faith in Liberty, turns to security out of fear of the unknown independence. Hence the growth of monopolies and government. In the middle class lies the heart of independence.

Popeyes Rewards The Biggest Family Feud Fail, Ever
by Christina Marfice	January 14, 2020
Family Feud Canada/Youtube
Here's how Popeyes Chicken responded to that viral Family Feud fail
It all started with a hilariously wrong answer on Family Feud. Eve Dubois, a contestant on the Canadian version of the show, was competing in a sudden death round. The first person to buzz in and correctly answer would win $10,000 for their family. Eve buzzed in first, but then she made a hilarious, yet sort of understandable mistake: She mixed up Popeye the cartoon character with Popeyes Chicken. It could have happened to anyone.
The sudden death round, as host Gerry Dee explained, was comprised of just a single question.
"Alright, real simple. There's one question, only one answer. Whoever gets it, you're playing for $10,000. Whoever guesses this wins the game," he said.
The question was, "Name Popeye's favorite food." Eve was lightning fast on the buzzer, and when she gleefully announced, "Chicken!!" she also did a happy dance. It was one of the most iconic moments ever to happen on a game show, hands down.
The cringiest part might be when poor Eve looked back at her family, her face triumphant, only to see them burying their heads in their podiums. Both the host and the audience were trying to hold back their laughter. Her competitor buzzed in with the correct answer: "Spinach, Gerry," winning the game and the $10,000 sudden death prize.
Meanwhile, Eve finally realized her mistake. "I thought you meant Popeyes Chicken," she said, laughing at her mix-up. At least she had a sense of humor about the whole thing.
While Eve lost her family the $10,000 prize on Family Feud, this whole situation has not left her empty handed. Her very relatable chicken gaffe went viral, which means it reached the eyes and ears of someone in charge at Popeyes Chicken, who decided Eve deserved at least a little something for her fried poultry enthusiasm.
"Our survey says you got that right," the chicken chain wrote on Twitter. "DM us to claim your $10,000 worth of Popeyes."
That's right: They offered her the amount of the prize she lost — in free chicken from Popeyes. Honestly, what Eve won may have been better than cash. At least it's better than spinach.
Despite going viral for being totally wrong, Eve seems like she's stayed in good spirits. On Twitter, she posted a years-old video of herself dancing with pieces of fried chicken. She's a lifelong fried chicken fan, and now her dream is happening.

Sevyn Streeter Is Taking Her First Trip On The Ride 5
By papa keith
No one's coming off the mountain when they say that hip hop and R&B nowadays can be just a little bit generic. Still, there are more than a few tracks that stand out and we'd like to give shine to those that set themselves apart from the rest. The songs that bump in your car as you drive through the streets of South Florida.
We call it The Ride 5. Five songs that stand out on the The Beat Playlist.
#1. Silk Sonic - Leave The Door Open brings back smooth soul in a BIG way. Bruno Mars & Anderson .Paak play their way through 70's R&B stylings with the adoration of musical minds that were raised on the classic sound of soul. Hopefully it marks more of a turn towards harmonies which has been lacking in today's sound, regardless it is a sweet debut from a pair of masters.
S#4. .
#2. Nipsey Hussle ft. Jay-Z - What It Feels Like. Taking its pulse from the legendary sound of 70's soul the Hov and Nipsey collab doesn't let go of its roots and the song's honorable dedication to that sound is what makes it timeless as Nipsey's legacy.
#3. Sevyn Streeter - Guilty ft. Chris Brown, A$AP Ferg - Sevyn Streeter is back in a big way with a hip-hop/soul feel worthy of the Bad Boy legacy it draws from. Using the iconic James Brown "The Big Payback" lick to pulsate and move, this heartfelt duet with Chris Brown keeps the track on steady ground for A$AP Ferg to fully express his NY State Of Mind on his verse. In a world where it seems that soul music is finding new footing in the modern south saturated world that hip-hop has become, this nostalgic serenade feels as fresh and new as the 70's inspiration it draws from.
#4. Fat Joe, DJ Khaled, Amorphous - Sunshine (The Light) is a call back to that 2000;s sound that both Diddy and Joe personified back in the day. In the Miami shot video the two enjoy the fruits of the bling generation's labor and the swag of the Luthor Vandross track it samples.
#5. 50 Cent feat. NLE Choppa & Rileyy Lanez - "Part of the Game" keeps its game as smooth as the operator that first sampled the Mary Jane Girls track. Big Daddy Kane would tip his hat to 50's silky bars gliding over that nice baseline with a soulful Rileyy Lanez coloring the harmony.

What kind of tea does Pu'er tea belong to
what kind of tea does Pu'er tea belong to? I believe many friends who like to drink tea are not very strange. Pu'er tea is one of the most recommended health tea. It not only tastes good, but also has high medicinal value. It has a good effect of removing fat and helping digestion. It is also a good tea for warming the stomach. In addition, there is a magical special effect that Pu'er can also solve the problem. It is suitable for middle-aged and old people to drink. It is a natural health product.
what kind of tea does Pu'er tea belong to? Pu'er is one of the six kinds of black tea, but Pu'er is also a controversial tea. Many experts who like to study tea products divide this kind of tea list into a new variety. Many people like to use Pu'er to eliminate excess fat in their body.
because the artificial pile fermentation of Pu'er ripe tea belongs to black tea. However, the raw tea of Pu'er is exposed to air and naturally fermented in the later stage. It is also said that Pu'er raw tea is green tea. It is only in the last process of Maocha. Pu'er raw tea is sun dried Maocha. Green tea is often roasted, roasted and steamed.
Pu'er tea is divided into big leaf and small leaf species, fermented tea is cooked tea, Yunnan people call it Shupu, naturally stored tea is raw tea, Yunnan people call it Shengpu, black tea is not Yunnan, it probably belongs to Hunan Fu tea, Yunnan black tea is made of Taiwan tea, mild fermentation, mature tea fermentation to 5 is the best, but now the business is eager for success, general fermentation to 7-9 points What kind of tea does Pu'er tea belong to? Pu'er tea is a famous tea in Yunnan traditional history, which is also a famous tea in Chinese history. The definition of Pu'er tea published by Yunnan Provincial Bureau of standards and Metrology in March 2003 is: "Pu'er tea is a kind of loose tea and pressed tea, which is made from Yunnan large leaf sunning green tea in a certain area of Yunnan Province after fermentation." This is Chinese mainland's authoritative definition of Pu 'er tea. Pu'er tea belongs to the category of "black tea" in the traditional classification of tea. It is native to Simao, Banna, Lincang and other places in the middle reaches of Lancang River Basin in Yunnan Province. It has strong regional and technological characteristics. The more the tea is aged, the more fragrant it is. Pu'er tea is a kind of tea with the longest history and the strongest cultural flavor. The different processes of Pu'er tea are divided into "cooked tea" and "raw tea". After a pile of stuffy turn ripe, it becomes "ripe tea". After a long period of storage, it can be sold after the taste is stable and clean. The storage time generally takes 3-5 years" "Raw tea" refers to the natural transformation of raw tea into mature tea without piling up. The process of natural ripening is rather slow, at least 5-8 years. The more time it takes, the stronger its inner fragrance and vitality will be. Thus, the tradition of "making new tea and selling old tea" is formed.
Pu'er tea has excellent quality, not only in its aroma, moisture, mellow taste, mainly for Tibetan compatriots to drink. As the saying goes, "no food for three days, no tea for one day", it can be seen that Pu'er tea has been proved to reduce blood lipid since ancient times. People generally buy and drink tea for novelty rather than for aging, but some of the black tea, such as Yunnan Pu'er tea, Hunan black Mao tea, Guangxi Liubao tea and so on, have good aroma of old tea and poor aroma of new tea. Of course, it is not that the older the better.
after clinical experiments have proved that Pu'er tea has a good weight loss effect, can also reduce cholesterol in the human body, as well as the effect of body fluid and cough. Pu'er tea can not only make our work and life full of energy, but also make us slim and healthy in a short time. It is the best choice for health care!

Electronic Arts' military shooter set during the modern war in Afghanistan could have lost its official U.S. Army support over the inclusion of Taliban fighters as playable characters in the game's online mode, military officials told Kotaku.
The U.S. Army, which officially supported the development of Medal of Honor, didn't find out about the inclusion of playable Taliban fighters in the game until the title was nearly finished, said Kenneth Hawes, director of the U.S. Army's Public Affairs Office Western Region.
Despite working with the developers on capturing sound, going over the campaign's story and allowing photo shoots of vehicles like the Apache attack helicopter, the U.S. Army was never told about the game's multiplayer modes, Hawes said.
The director learned of the Taliban's inclusion after the issue made a splash around the world in media reports following the game's showing at the annual E3 video game convention in Los Angeles.
"We immediately contacted Electronic Arts and asked them to give us a demonstration of the game's capabilities," Hawes said.
Hawes and a team traveled to the studio on Aug. 27 to see the game's multiplayer modes first hand. What he saw did not please him.
"You have to understand I'm not a gamer," Hawes told Kotaku. "We provide support on major motion pictures, television and video games, but I didn't grow up with video games. So personally I was a little disappointed they included that scenario."
Hawes said he understands that when a military shooter has an online element there needs to be "theoretical good guys and theoretical bad guys."
"But our concern is that this is an ongoing conflict, soldiers are engaged every day, our sons and daughters are dying at the hands of the Taliban," he said.
When asked what the reaction of the Department of Defense was when he passed on the word of the nature of the Taliban's inclusion in multiplayer he said he thinks they were "a little surprised."
Electronic Arts declined to comment for this article.
While not necessary, early on in the development of their latest Medal of Honor game, Electronic Arts approached Hawes' office for official support of the game by the Army. That entails the Army and the developer signing a production assistance agreement which gives the Army a chance to check out the product being made and the movie, TV or video game developers access to locations, weapons, soldiers and vehicles.
Ret. Lt. Col. Greg Bishop, who worked under Hawes overseeing the support before retiring, told Kotaku that he and his team worked with EA on a number of things for the game including recording sounds of weapons being fired and granting the developer access to Apache helicopters for digitizing.
They even rigged several Apache helicopters with microphones during a training event to capture the sound of the weapons being fired.
Bishop said he initially had concerns over the idea behind the game, a military shooter set during a ongoing conflict, but meeting with the developers assured him.
"We had a really good meeting with them and they expressed not only their level of respect for the American soldier but showed us how the franchise has always been that way," Bishop said.
And, Bishop said, the developers really seemed to know what they were talking about.
But they didn't hear a thing about multiplayer gameplay.
"I don't think there was anything nefarious about them not showing it to us," he said. "They were always respectful of us. They realized they were treading on some delicate ground."
Retired Army Captain Brian Chung, who was wounded in Iraq and awaiting medical discharge when EA came to the U.S. Army for support, also helped out on the game. It's Chung's finger pulling the trigger on most of the weapons you hear in the game.
Chung said he was impressed by the developer's attention to detail and realism.
"The video game is loosely based on actual events and we were bringing in colonels and generals of that war," he said. "When they saw it they were blown away.
"One colonel started sweating when he saw the demonstration."
Chung also thinks Electronic Arts' failure to show the Army the game's multiplayer was accidental.
He first heard about the inclusion of Taliban when he read about it on Kotaku, he said. His reaction was mixed.
"The whole notion of cops and robbers or cowboys and Indians, that doesn't work," he said. "This isn't in the past. If you say Taliban and U.S. troops, that is going on now, there are soldiers dying every day."
"The Army's support of the game was based on the single player only," Chung said. "My understanding is that they were only 80 percent done with single player and hadn't started multiplayer development yet."
Bishop said that knowledge of the multiplayer mode would certainly have raised red flags for the Army.
"If we would have asked the question, or they would have told us, if we would have known, we would have come up with a solution," Bishop said.
Chung and Bishop now run private consultant company MUSA Consulting, which works as a liaison between the entertainment world and the military one. Bishop says understanding the culture of the military and gaming can help avoid these situations.
"If you don't know the culture, if you don't understand the people, it is easy to step on a PR land mine," Bishop said.
While the U.S. Army has no legal repercussions when they disapprove of something that goes into a movie, television show or video game they supported, they can officially withdraw their support.
The problem is that much of this process is front loaded, with the approvals and the help given early on. This late in the game, there is very little the Army can do.
"From a legal stand point we have have no legal authority to make a production company or developer change something," Hawes said. "In this case we provided support based on the original outline."
While Hawes said that the Army withdrawing support for the game after it was completed would have been nothing more than a "statement of disappointment," they still considered it.
"That did come up, withdrawing support," he said. "We never did send a formal letter to Electronic Arts pulling support, that would have been a meaningless document."
Hawes and Electronic Arts' Jeff Brown both say that there was never a formal request by the Army to remove the playable Taliban, but almost exactly a month after the Army saw the game in action and expressed their disappointment, that's what EA did.
In a statement released today, the Medal of Honor developers said they were renaming the Taliban to Opposing Force in the mulitplayer modes of the game out of respect for the friends and families of fallen soldiers.
Hawes said the Army received notice of the change in the game at the beginning of this week.
While Hawes said that the issue hasn't resulted in any change of policy, he did say the miscommunication will "help us in the future."
"We learn from every experience," he said. "We are pleased they changed it from the Taliban, only time will tell if they went far enough."
