SOME NEW OR LITTLE-USED INSECTICIDES WORTHY OF FURTHER TESTING
Part I. Copper-Arsenic Compoundl/
By R. C. Roark, Division of Insecticide I-estigations
The history of several of our most potont in useu insecticides
reveals that many years frequently elapse bet-,er the first published
account of them and their general adoption. For.e ple, derris was men-
tioned as an insecticide in 1848, and a study of i p bi1ities as
reported in 1919, but it was not used in quantity in the United States
until 1931, Tartar emetic was tested as an insecticide in 1890, but did
not come into large-scale use until about 1936.
The writer believes that the time between the initial discovery of
the insecticidal action of a material and its corner adopLion could be
greatly shortened by proper publicity. When sufficient information on the
insecticidal value of a material is published, its acjercial production
will be eagerly undertaken by the chemical industry eid it will be made
available for public use. The first step in this ola' is to stimulate
interest among entomologists so that -:any tests agi t different insects
will be made. In the present series of papers a, effort is made to bring
to the attention of entomologists m aterials not no used commercially as
insecticides, but which are believed to possess pCssibilities for insect
control that should be further explored.
Compounds Related to Paris Green
Paris green is one of our oldest insectdti,'c and, in spite of
competition from the newer arsonicals such as lead -rsenate, calcium arse-
nate, and zinc arsenite, it is still consumed to the extent of about 2 million
pounds annually. It has the formula 3CuAs O .Cu(C 1-0) 2 and contains
58.55 percent of arsenic trioxide, 33 .39 percent of cupwic oxide (equivalent
to 25.08 percent of copper), and 1O.06 percent of acetic .cid anhydride.
l/ Free use has been made of unpublished data obtained by E. H.
Siegler, of the Division of Fruit Insect Investigation<, ard M. C, Swingle
and associates, of the Division of Control Investigatios. Grateful acknowl-
edgment is made to these Divisions for permission to use their results.
Decrborn 1 21 has prepared compounds analogous to paris green
using such cids of the acetic series as formic, propionic, butyric, mono-,
'and tri>h' re ctc, lauric, paimitic, stearic, and melissic. These
gre are Je h
hot solution of akali-metal salt of the fatty acid (i.e., a soap) and
heating, Unsttrted acids, such as crotonic, oleic, erucic, linoleic, and
linolenic, and lso nixed acids resulting from the saponification of vege-
table or a_:1cos can be similarly used (3, 4, 5, 6, 7). Acids from the
,joi7n oils ha>e aso been emplo ,ed to prepare copper-arsenic compounds:
C--r, coconut, .ottonseed, corn, inuseed, menhaden, palr., peanut, rapeseed,
sesame, soybean, and tung.
The in. eticidal values of these greens have been tested only to a
li[ ~ extent 1 lefing and Baker (12) tested paris green and a number of
its homologues2 n cormparison with lead arsenate for the control of the
au l JZpanese- bct,--l (Ppillia j Nem.). Fotted smartweed plants
.erc sprayed ;itr eah arsenical in several concentrations and then placed
in glass cages u._c.er controlled temperature, relative humidity, and light.
Freshly collected. japanese beetles that had been starved for 6 hours were
distributed in ech cage, and after 48 hours a record was made of beetle
lmorlality and ,,xay injury. Their results for a concentration of 8 pounds
per 100 gallons are as follows:

The grcater effs.ctiveness of scme of thcsc ccmi- ounds %,:as attributed in

Several of these greens were tested in the laboratory by J. B. Cahan and A,

fourth instars o' southern armworm (Prodenia Pridsnia (Cram.)) and

The foregoing results clearly show that these compounds are very toxic
to insect pests. As their physical properties, s uch as wettability, a,,-
hesiveness, etc., vary with the t pe of acid crrplcyed (saturated, unsaturated,
halogenated, etc.), and also with the arsenic and copper content and the
solubility, a series of new insocticidcs possessing a wide range of' physical
and chemical properties is available.
The following uses for these greens are suggested:
(1) The green made from formic acid' contains the most arsenic (60.22
percent As2O3) an- should be superior IL j-t5 s ic in insuring a cu c:'
kill of cotton 1lca hoppers, oll2o;s, 1cll v;.1lo, cotton lcaf 'wor,
Colorado potato beetles, and other insect pests of plants that are resistant
to soluble arsenicals.
(2) The greens made from oleic or stearic acid or from the .atty
acids from peanut, soybean, or other, \egeta >e oils ield but little soluble
arsenic when added to water and are worthy of Csting as suhstitutes for
lead arsenate for combating certain insects. It will Th necessary to add
a little wetting agent to these greens because of the-r greasy charact er
and also a safcner to lessen the effects of' soluble arsenic and soluble
copper upon the foliage of some plants. If the nd cy to injure ap l
foliage can be overcome, these materials would also 1e 'oI, testing a i_1.
the codling moth.
(3) The same greens, because they r i- 1o1aing on water loer,
should prove superior to paris green for h control of surface-feeding
(4) These oil greens are wetted by- petroleum oils. A product iade
by grinding one of these greens in a petrolui.I spray oil and cmulsifyinag,
in water offers possibilities for the control o* insects now combated by
lead arsenate-oil sprays.
(5) All these greens contain a considerable amount of copper (25 79
percent as a maximum in formic green) v hich should display the characteristic
fungicidal action of this metal.

Another baker has left The Great British Bake Off.
Tuesday night saw the bakers take on the first ever Japanese week where they steamed buns, created matcha crepe cake and showed off their Kawaii-style in the show stopper.
However, as always, one baker had to leave the popular show and Mark Lutton was sent home after his show stopper cake was called a disaster.
Mark baked two cakes in the shape of avocados, in the cute Kwaii-style that is popular in Japan. However, his bake and flavours didn't impress the judges and Paul Hollywood even mentioned that it was close to inedible.
After these comments, Mark admitted on air that he thought his time would be up this week, but said "I couldn't have asked for more in my Bake Off appearance."
Mark's avocado cake (via Channel 4)
When Mark's exit was aired on Tuesday night's show, the official Twitter account of GBBO shared a beautiful letter Mark had written looking back on his summer in the baking tent.
"To the bakers: I am so incredibly proud of all eleven of you," he began, "Living, laughing + baking with you all in our 'Bake Off commune' was genuinely one of the happiest experiences of my life."
"I feel honoured to have been able to get to know you all in such exceptional circumstances." he added.
Mark also thanked Paul and Prue for their "all-around encouragement", as well as Noel and Matt for making him laugh throughout the show which kept him going "more than he realised at the time".
He also thanked the viewers and was happy to be part of bringing "a small amount of joy to [their] screens in such a difficult year".
“To the viewers, I am humbled by all the love and support you have shown me throughout…”— British Bake Off (@BritishBakeOff) October 27, 2020
Here’s a farewell letter from marvellous Mark to all the Bake Off fans at home. #GBBO pic.twitter.com/XWmH9FtAHP
Bake Off viewers were sad to see Mark leave, as he was one of the most popular bakers during this year's series.
"I am SO sad that Mark L has gone home! What a great guy: happy, smiley and a terrific baker. We will really miss you Mark. I suggest that ALL the bakers from this week on should stay & a winner is just picked at the end!" one viewer wrote, while another one said "Brilliant contestant. Thank you for cheering up all of the viewers with your fun and smiles. Great Baker. Best of luck in all that you do. Should be totally proud of yourself."
A third also praised Mark saying "So sad you won't be in this series. You are a lovely bright soul, you future is bright. Much health, happiness and joy for you and yours xx thank you for being you."
Next week will see the contestants take on 80s week as they continue to bake their way into the final.
The Great British Bake Off is on Channel 4 every Tuesday at 8pm.

A psychiatrist from the University Hospital of Fuenlabrada, Ruth Candela, awarded by a solidarity initiative, will allocate the award to the creation of a training website so that families and professionals of children with disabilities learn to communicate and can teach them to read and write.
Her project, presented under the name of ‘Not being able to talk to you does not mean having nothing to say’ has been the winner of the solidarity initiative ‘As big as you want to be’, promoted by Hyunday Motor Spain to “give visibility to anonymous projects that they improve people’s lives. ”
“It is this type of initiatives that support and promote projects with a vocation for social change that can improve the day-to-day lives of vulnerable groups,” said Candela, who will invest the 5,000 euros of the award in the creation of a training website for professionals and families of children with disabilities.
In her project, this psychiatrist explains that, of a group in Spain of more than 4 million people with disabilities, around a third have communication difficulties, paying special attention to children, according to a note from the Hospital.
“Children with cerebral palsy, Rett syndrome, autism or Angelman syndrome, among others, are condemned to live every day without speech and without the opportunity to learn to read and write, which prevents them from being autonomous or independent,” insists Candela. .
To alleviate this need, the doctor plans to create an online training website from which “all the services that are considered to be priorities on the difficult path of giving voice to children without oral language” can be provided.
“The acquisition of language is closely related to the learning of reading and writing. Most of the children with multiple disabilities have much fewer opportunities to achieve literacy, because they have not been provided with the foundations on which literacy is built,” she highlights.
Candela is convinced that with the help of assistive technology, through this new online platform, specific training can be provided for both families and professionals to implement teaching strategies.

Underage teens on Tinder, forget me Google, WWDC
Should 13 year olds be allowed to use the dating app Tinder? More than seven per cent of Tinder's users are aged between 13 and 17, which means they actually outnumber the 35 to 44-year-olds, who make up 6.5 percent of the app's users. Plus, Google has launched a new service allowing European citizens to request the removal of information about themselves from its search results.
It's the first step to comply with an EU court ruling affirming the "right to be forgotten". And all of the latest from Apple's WWDC 2014 conference.

FORMER ring girl Brookelyn has rocketed to social media stardom after posting a string of online comedy sketches - that have been viewed more than one billion times.
The Edinburgh native was a model before turning her hand to comedy and now boasts millions of followers making her one of the UK's leading online personalities.
Speaking exclusively to The Sun Online, Brookelyn revealed how she has managed to amass millions such a huge number of fans in just 18-months.
The funny blonde has released numerous videos on Facebook, YouTube and Instagram and has a huge following across the globe.
She has more than 2.3 million fans on Facebook and 900,000 on Instagram.
Most social media personalities take years to achieve anywhere near that level of success.
Brookelyn loves being a social media star and interacting with her fansHer hilarious and sometimes risque videos cover a range of topics from getting ready for work on the Tube, pretending to be the 'perfect girlfriend' and getting very cosy with the pizza delivery man.
Speaking from Sun HQ, she said: “I put out my first video and I think it got a million views in two days and I gained 30,000 followers overnight.
"It went viral, I couldn’t believe it, it was crazy and that was it and I built my page from there.
“The first one was called 'The Perfect Girlfriend' and in it the guy was playing Fifa and I wanted to have fun and he’s like ‘no babe’ and I pretend it’s fine even though I’m fuming.
“I think it’s something people could relate to and that’s why it did well.
"The rude videos are my favourite, they’re so fun to shoot and the blooper reels are always hilarious."
While she's confident in front of the camera, Brookelyn admitted she has to think twice about trying to make it as a comedy star online.
She said: "I was terrified to post the first video because if you put yourself out there online you’re going to get criticised as well.
“I wasn’t used to that, I was used to two or three comments on my Instagram saying ‘You’re hot’.
“Then when you put video content out, you’re open to people being nasty to you and they are. I was shocked at some of the comments.
"After I posted the first video I had to decide if I really wanted to do this so I sat down with my friend and he was like ‘if this is what you want to do, you’ll have to ignore the comments’.
"So I decided to go for it and I got used to it pretty quickly."
Despite having such a massive audience worldwide, Brookelyn says she doesn't feel the pressure when coming up with ideas for new clips.
She said: "I know my audience so well, I feel like I know what works and what doesn’t."
Ex On The Beach star Jordan Davies appeared in one of her recent sketches and Brookelyn said he was wonderful to work with.
She said: “He helped me with the idea and he was up for anything, he turned up and I told him what to wear and what to do and he was really fun to work with."
Brookelyn said she now wants to harness her following and move into TV.
She said: "I’d love to do presenting, possibly film as well I’ve got something in the pipeline and hopefully I can announce it soon. That would be a lead role so that would be cool. Fingers crossed, it’s almost finalised."
However, don't expect to see her on the likes of Love Island any time soon as she is currently seeing someone.
“With reality TV, Big Brother or I'm A Celebrity, at least I could be myself," she explained.
MOST READ IN TV & SHOWBIZ
“I’m seeing someone at the moment so it's definitely no to any dating shows."
Brookelyn also shared her top tips for any burgeoning social media stars.
She said: "Regular content is key and it has to be relatable - if it’s not people won’t press that share button."

Borussia Dortmund's sporting director Michael Zorc has confirmed that he has held talks with the agent of in-demand striker Erling Haaland, as relayed by Sky in Germany.
The news comes just moments after Mino Raiola and Alfie Haaland were captured arriving in Barcelona ahead of a meeting with the newly-elected Camp Nou president Joan Laporta on Thursday afternoon.
As per the comments relayed by Max Bielefeld, Borussia Dortmund's sporting director confirmed his talks with Raiola, however reaffirmed the club's hard stance on the Norwegian forward going in to the summer transfer window.
"Yesterday I spoke to Mino Raiola. We’ve made our intentions very clear", said Zorc.
Sky journalist Bielefeld confirms that the intention of Borussia Dortmund, as highlighted by Michael Zorc, is that they do not want to sell the 20 year-old striker this summer.
There is a belief in some corners of the German media today that such is the intention and determination to retain the services of Haaland this summer, that internally they have not even placed a price tag on their star man.
However, the understanding from SPORT1 is that Borussia Dortmund would for nothing less than €150 million, with a target of €180 million during the summer window.
Manchester City are known to be in the market for a new big name striker this summer, as the club confirmed the pending departure of Sergio Aguero - who will leave the Etihad Stadium after 10 years of service, upon the expiry of his contract in June.

Recent reports suggest that President Trump is preparing to roll back U.S. financial sanctions on Russia in order to improve bilateral relations. But such measures will not deliver any significant economic relief to Russia, and they could be undercut by Russia hawks in the U.S. Congress.
What’s more, sanctions relief could hurt some U.S. economic interests.
President Trump has offered little regard for the financial sanctions enacted by the Obama administration to target Russia’s territorial aggression in Crimea and Eastern Ukraine.
It would come as little surprise if he acts unilaterally to implement this policy, even without Moscow’s fulfillment of Minks commitments as demanded by European leaders and many in Congress. The sanctions Trump would abolish restrict Russia’s banking, energy, and defense sectors, and impose visa bans and asset freezes on Russian and Crimean individuals. They were carefully coordinated with Europe, and supplemented by the U.S. Congress.

Halloween is almost here~ Halloween in NYC is the best! We have the Halloween parade that goes right thru the West Village. Just before Halloween it’s fun to make fresh, homemade spiced apple cider. It’s perfect timing since I have lots of fresh apples from apple picking in the Hudson Valley recently.
I’ve been using this simple recipe for years. You don’t even have to peel your apples, just cut them in quarters and throw them in a large pot.
Here’s what you need:
10 apples, Gala work really well, but any sweet to mildly sweet apple will work
1/2 cup of sugar
5 tablespoons of all spice
3 tablespoons of cinnamon
Fresh cinnamon sticks for garnish
2 loose leaf tea bags to hold the spices
Here are the steps to make the cider. Preparation time is about 3 hours in total. The house will smell amazing while it’s cooking with all those spices simmering!
1. quarter 10 apples. leave the skin on, and remove the seeds.
2. place the apples in a large pan for boiling.
3. fill the pan with water, just covering the apples.
4. add the 1/2 cup of sugar.
5. add the all spice and cinnamon into a piece of cheesecloth and tie it, adding to the pot, or add the all spice and cinnamon into a loose leaf tea bag sachet and add to the pot.
6. Bring to a boil for 1 hour, stirring occasionally and checking to insure that the water doesn’t get too low. If it seems to get too low, just add a little extra water. You can leave the lid off while boiling.
7. After 1 hour, reduce to low heat and simmer the mixture for 2 hours with the lid on to lock in all the steam.
8. Let the mixture cool.
9. Once cooled, remove the spices and mash the apples to a pulp like texture. Pour the mixture into a large bowl through a strainer. This is your cider!
Serve the hot spiced apple cider with a cinnamon stick for a pretty garnish.
The cider can be stored in the refrigerator in a jar covered for up to a week.
If your looking for a diabetic option for a spiced apple cider recipe, you can try using the natural sweetener Stevia as an alternative to the sugar.
Now that Halloween is here, we can take some of those Halloween pumpkins to make pumpkin soup too!
Hot spiced apple cider is a great for Halloween parties and makes a pretty drink for your friends~ Enjoy!

Water-cooled motor boats are welcome in the perimeter canal and in the Motorized Zone of the Refuge Interior. Airboat operation is allowed in designated areas of the refuge during specific times of the year by permit only. Read about boating regulations on our Rules and Policies page.
Boating in the waters of the Everglades is a task for the skilled boater. Outside of the main canals, treacherous passes and trails cut through banks of mud and sawgrass. Safely exploring the refuge, while protecting the sensitive lands and waters of the Everglades, requires the ability to "read the water". Watch for wildlife and other vessels while underway. Floating vegetation and changing water levels can block canals and hide boat trails. Propeller damage is harmful to wet prairie habitats, please be careful when navigating in shallow waters.
- Watch for changing weather conditions.
- Maintain your vessel and operate it responsibly.
- Tell a relative or friend where you are going and when you should return.
- Respect wildlife and keep your distance.
- Bring a GPS navigation system and know how to use it. Cell phone coverage can be sporadic and sometimes unreliable.
- Dress appropriately for the weather and bring water, snacks, insect repellent, sun protection, a first aid kit, and an emergency light.

Highlights of Singapore & Malaysia
Floral artist Liz Bishop of Junglebloom accompanied our 2018 tour to the Singapore Garden Festival and Malaysia. We asked her to share her highlights.
We started off in Singapore and, of course, The Garden Festival was the main attraction. I was looking forward to seeing all the international designers in Floral Windows to the World and they didn’t disappoint. The quality is so high at this show that it’s hard to choose a favourite, but Frédéric Dupré and Premysl Hytych stood out for me. Premysl’s The Tree of Life was quite spectacular. Many of these designers are well known and their work is all over the internet, but seeing them in real life is very special.
The other great treat of Singapore was the Bumboat ride. We cruised down the river past all the big sights and watched the most spectacular laser light show highlighting the Marina Bay Sands Hotel.
From there we travelled on to Penang. The rickshaw ride through the old world streets of Georgetown was a big hit – especially with Anne!
We watched craftsmen printing Batik fabrics and had a thrilling downhill ride from Penang Hill on the Funicular railway too.
Kuala Lumpur was totally different – it’s such a busy, multi-cultural city. We crammed in all the big sites, had high tea in the Colonial Café at the Majestic Hotel and even had time to visit the flower market for boxes of orchids.
I was born in Malaysia and I have travelled here with other groups too, but I never get tired of it. This tour offers a chance to see some really spectacular tropical flowers and foliage and to experience life on the other side of the world.
We are running this tour again in Summer 2020. Find out more here

A major study into the economics of adults in the United States has shown that taking nutritional supplements may shave a combined $5.6 billion off health care costs over the next five years, and help people live a life of better quality.
A report commissioned by the Dietary Supplement Education Alliance (DSEA), studied the scientific evidence on the ability of a number of nutrients to reduce the risk of disease. This information was also converted into dollars and cents by providing a Congressional Budget Office-type estimate of potential health care savings.
This study found that a daily intake of 1800mg of omega-3 could result in conservative savings of around $3.1 billion in five years. These savings will be in the form of physician’s fees and approximately 385,303 fewer hospitalizations. According to the American Heart Association, 13 million Americans (6.9% of the population) suffer from coronary heart disease, with men experiencing their first heart attack at the average age of 65 years and women at 70 years.
The DSEA confirms that the results of this recent investigation only reinforce the efficacy and health benefits of nutritional supplement use. Healthcare costs for US citizens 65 and older is expected to reach $16 trillion by the year 2030. The need for innovative and preventative healthcare solutions is clearer than ever. Due to the substantial cost benefits to the healthcare system, the U.S government is waking up to the benefits of supplementation.

At 1.67 lakh cases, India sees slight dip in daily Covid tallytext_fields
India on Tuesday recorded 1,67,059 new Covid cases in the past 24 hours, 20 per cent lower than yesterday's 2.09 lakh figure. A whopping 1,192 fresh fatalities were also reported in the same time period.
The new Covid cases recorded today took the total infection tally in the country to 4,14,69,499, as India continues to rank the second worst-hit by Covid in the world, following the US.
The top five states that registered the maximum new cases in 24 hours on Tuesday are Kerala with 42,154 cases, followed by Karnataka with 24,172 cases, Tamil Nadu with 19,280 cases, Maharashtra with 15,140 cases and Madhya Pradesh with 8,062 cases.
Of the new cases, 65.13 per cent were reported in these five states, with Kerala alone responsible for 25.23 per cent of them.
The high daily death count today, taking total deaths in the country to 4.96 lakh, includes a backlog of 638 deaths recorded in Kerala.
The daily positivity rate, which is the share of coronavirus tests that return positive -- considered to be a key marker of the pandemic's status -- has dropped to 11.6 per cent from 15.7 per cent, while the weekly positivity rate was recorded at 15.25 per cent.
India's active caseload currently stands at 17.43 lakh cases, comprising 4.2 per cent of total infections in the country. The national COVID-19 recovery rate is presently at 94.6 per cent.
In the last 24 hours, India administered a total of 61,45,767 Covid-19 vaccine doses, bringing the total tally of doses administered to 1,66,68,48,204.
Meanwhile, a total of 14,28,672 samples were tested for Covid-19 in the same 24 hours.


Voters to head to the polls in Florida special election House races
Voters in three state House districts will pick new representatives today to fill vacancies created when Gov. Ron DeSantis appointed three members in January to lead state agencies.
Republicans are expected to win contested races in North Florida and Pasco County. The Democratic candidate for a Broward County seat is unopposed.
In the 10-county House District 7 that takes in the southwest corner of Leon County, unofficial early voter numbers exceeded the turnout for the April GOP primary won by Jason Shoaf. Shoaf, a Port St. Joe businessman, emerged from that four-way race with 49% of 9,618 votes cast.
When the week-long early-voting period ended Saturday, more than 9,777 voters had cast ballots in the contest between Shoaf and Democrat Ryan Terrell, a communications consultant. The GOP holds a pre-election day edge in turnout with 52% of the vote cast by mail-in and early voting ballots.
HD 7 winds along the Forgotten Coast from Taylor County at the Big Bend to 100 miles west of Tallahassee at Gulf County. Perry, with about 7,000 residents, is the district’s biggest town. Shoaf won the primary with a dominant performance in the three bigger counties, Gulf, Taylor and Wakulla.
So far, Republican voters make up 57% of the pre-election day vote in those counties and 27% of the turnout overall.
Voters in five Leon County precincts can participate in the Tuesday election. Polls will be open from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. at the Woodville Community Center, the Aquilina Howell Building on Pensacola Street, the Fort Braden Community Center and the Crossway Baptist Church.
Polls in four of the district’s counties are in the Central Time Zone; election night results will not be released before 8 p.m. in Tallahassee.
HD 7 is beset with some of the higher unemployment and child poverty rates in the state.
Shoaf and Terrel have engaged in a low-key campaign. The candidates produced no media events, held no joint appearances and communicated with their supporters mainly through social media postings.
Both cite Hurricane Michael recovery as key planks in their platform. Shoaf also pledges to advocate for more vocational training in public schools and additional worker training to spur economic growth.Terrell released a six-point agenda with four items tied directly to education.
Former Rep. Halsey Beshears, R-Monticello, won a fourth term in November but DeSantis tapped him to lead the state Department of Business and Professional Regulations, creating an open seat. The other seats became vacant when DeSantis named Pasco Republican Rep. Danny Burgess to head the Department of Veterans Affairs and Democratic Rep. Jared Moskowitz to lead the Division of Emergency Management.
None of the three seats is expected to flip to the opposing party.
When the votes are counted at the end of Tuesday, Republicans are expected to hold 73 seats to Democrats' 47.

Morevino is all about discovery and adventure. You can expect delicious wines from small producers from across Australia (and beyond), grape varieties you’ve never heard of, wine styles that range from classical to kooky – wines you won’t find in a bottle shop.
Argghhhhh decisions – it’s all too overwhelming!
Well we’ve made this decision pretty easy for you. We select the wines for the packs - all you have to decide is how many and what colour. Discovering and drinking awesome wines really couldn’t be any easier.
The wine styles, grape varieties and regions of origin will vary with each release, depending on the theme. We think this gives you the greatest opportunity to try all sorts of different wines and to drink outside the box!
Of course you can choose between red, white and mixed but that's where your responsibilities end and the excitement begins! Morevino is all about wine adventures and discoveries – there’s a whole lot going on in this big world of wine and we want to share it with you. We encourage you to be open to wine styles that you may not have loved previously, and to varieties and producers you may have never heard of. It may seem like an exercise in trust and it is, but not in a lame team-building “fall into our outstretched arms and hope we don’t drop you” way. We’re more like that one friend you always hit up for good wine suggestions, except now you don’t even have to go out and find them!

Thanks to a C Magazine read at SFO, I discovered a lovely company called High Camp Supply. The company, ships an elegantly sorted arrangement of gardenia, greens and Laurent Perrier Brut champagne (how lustful!) to your recipient in a beautiful box (white or black). The “Vine and Bloom” box for example (above), includes a nest of loose blooms surrounded by budding “vine” gardenias on 8-10 inch stems. After initial due diligence, it seems Oprah has included this gift on her annual "Favorite Things" list. Perfection, if I must say! See more here.
Amidst a haircut last week, I tuned my hairdresser out for a solid 15 minutes while engrossed in this article in C Magazine. Admittedly, the portrait of the handsome hunk R. Nelson Parrish is what immediately caught my fancy. The interview that accompanied the photographs however proved that there's more that meets his soulful eyes and athletic stature. The Alaska-born artist sits in his Santa Barbara studio, surrounded by leftover fragments of wood, fiberglass and bio-resin from his work, discussing the inspiration behind his art and life's tribulations that have brought him to some colorful intersections. Aside from his signature totems (which Rob Lowe and John Legend have purchased a bounty of), he also consults on selected projects, including "Soul Poles", limited edition hand painted bamboo ski poles. The artist says he was inspired by early morning back country skiing, an inspiration that eventually garnered a feature in Vogue, Outdoor Magazine, and the like. Be sure to read the interview above and view his portfolio here.

After weeks of speculative newspaper articles and rumors, President Barack Obama and First Lady Michelle Obama made it official on Tuesday, announcing that the Barack Obama Presidential Center will be located on Chicago’s South Side, where the president worked as a community organizer and was first elected to office.
The presidential center, which will include a library, museum, office and activity space for the Barack Obama Foundation, will be located either in Washington Park or Jackson Park.
The library is scheduled to open in 2020 or 2021.
In the coming months, the foundation will enter into an agreement with the City of Chicago to develop the center. The University of Chicago has pledged to make resources an infrastructure available to the foundation in the near term for its planning and development work. President Obama, a Harvard Law School graduate, taught constitutional law at the University of Chicago Law School. He was the first African-American president of the Harvard Law Review.
“With a library and a foundation on the South Side of Chicago, not only will encourage and affect change locally … [it]can also do is attract the world to Chicago,” President Obama said. “All of the strands of my life came together and I really became a man when I moved to Chicago. That’s where I was able to apply that early idealism to try to work in communities in public service. That’s where I met my wife. That’s where my children were born.”
First Lady Michelle Obama said, “I’m thrilled to be able to put this resource in the heart of the neighborhood that means the world to me. Every value, every memory, every important relationship to me exists in Chicago. I consider myself a South Sider.”
The South Side was selected because of its access to transportation, economic development opportunities, community interest and potential for academic collaboration.
The foundation, however, will maintain a presence at Columbia University in New York City, where President Obama was awarded his undergraduate degree.
The foundation also will maintain a relationship with the State of Hawaii, where he grew up.

Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) on Tuesday said he does not have a reaction to former President Trump’s statement over the weekend that labeled his wife, former Trump administration Transportation Secretary Elaine Chao, “crazy.”
Asked in Kentucky if had any reaction to Trump’s statement, McConnell responded simply, “no.”
In a statement posted to Truth Social on Saturday, Trump criticized McConnell for a statement he made that week about the crop of GOP Senate hopefuls, before making a dig at Chao, McConnell’s wife of 29 years, calling her “crazy.”
“Why do Republicans Senators allow a broken down hack politician, Mitch McConnell, to openly disparage hard working Republican candidates for the United States Senate. This is such an affront to honor and to leadership,” Trump wrote. “He should spend more time (and money!) helping them get elected, and less time helping his crazy wife and family get rich on China!”
Chao served as Transportation secretary during the Trump administration for nearly four years, resigning one day after the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the Capitol. In a letter to Transportation Department staff, she called the riot “entirely avoidable” and said she was “deeply troubled” by the event.
Chao previously served eight years as Labor Department secretary under former President George W. Bush.
The mention of Chao’s family was likely a reference to the shipping company Foremost Group, which was founded by Chao’s father and is run by her sister. The American company does business in China and other countries.
The Department of Transportation inspector general previously discovered that Chao used department staff to assist the family business. The watchdog referred the facts to the Justice Department, which declined to investigate the then-secretary.
Trump’s statement bashing the couple came days after McConnell said the House had a better chance of flipping red than the Senate in the November midterm elections, citing “candidate quality” — a reference to Trump-backed candidates in Pennsylvania, Ohio, Arizona and Georgia who have lagged behind their Democratic opponents in recent polls.
“I think there’s probably a greater likelihood the House flips than the Senate. Senate races are just different — they’re statewide, candidate quality has a lot to do with the outcome,” McConnell told reporters in Kentucky when asked about his midterm expectations.
Trump’s attack on McConnell was the latest in the duo’s year-plus feud, which ramped up after the GOP leader slammed the then-president following the Jan. 6 riot. Since then, Trump has frequently criticized McConnell, calling him disloyal, an “Old Crow,” and earlier this month, taking a swipe at him after the Senate passed a sweeping climate, tax and health care bill.
But this weekend’s attack comes as Republicans are struggling in their fight to take control of the Senate come November. McConnell had earlier said this year’s midterm elections would be “very good” for Republicans, but he has since changed his tone, warning that the breakdown of the upper chamber following the races will be “extremely close.”
“Right now, we have a 50-50 Senate and a 50-50 country, but I think when all is said and done this fall, we’re likely to have an extremely close Senate, either our side up slightly or their side up slightly,” he said last week.
According to FiveThirtyEight, Democrats are favored to keep control of the Senate over Republicans, 64 percent to 36 percent.

Soldotna is one step closer to a robust sign code after the city council approved a new sign ordinance at its meeting Nov. 8.
The latest ordinance will allow for sandwich board signs and amended the sign code to clarify language pertaining to temporary signs within the city. Although a majority of the work on the sign code revamp is still to come, City Planner John Czarnezki said that it was important to push forward with the sandwich board ordinance
“We’re still working,” said Czarnezki. “We pulled this one out because when we first started looking at the thing, this one had business owners very concerned. … We wanted to get this taken care of quickly so that they would know what would be allowed.”
The new ordinance states that a sandwich board sign is defined as “a freestanding, portable, temporary sign consisting of two faces so that it is self-standing, whose message is targeted to pedestrians and motorists.”
No permit is required for sandwich board signs, but a set of standards must be followed which state that a sandwich board sign is limited to six square feet per sign face, can be up to four feet from the ground and the signs can not be illuminated.
Only one sandwich board sign is allowed per parcel except if there is more than one street frontage, in which case an additional sign is permitted at the second frontage.
The other change within the sign code sets the limit to temporary signs at 30 days and removes all language that could be problematic to the city, Czarneski said.
“It used to be tied to special events and holidays,” he said. “Now, it’s content neutral, which is the way our sign code should be. Folks can just display anything on that temporary sign, whether it’s advertising for a position for hire, a special, or a new business. They have that ability once receiving a planning and zoning permit.”
Czarneski said that additional resolutions and ordinances will come forward as the city continues to work on it’s sign code.
“We’re still shooting for the Spring of 2018,” Czarneski said. “We have a few other things, like marijuana and annexation, that are taking precedence but we’re still on target.”

Ogden City Hall is located at 2549 Washington Boulevard, Ogden UT 84401.
Photo: The Valasco Farr House, ca. 1887, 700 Canyon Road, Ogden, Utah. The architect was William Wilson Fife, a brother-in-law of the original owner, Valasco Farr. Listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1978. Photographed by User:Ntsimp (own work), 2009, [public domain], via Wikimedia Commons, accessed February 2021.
The first European-American settler of Ogden, Miles Goodyear, built a fur trading post in 1845 on an attractive spot of the Weber River, not far from where the Weber and Ogden Rivers converge. In 1847 he sold the property to Captain James Brown, a one-time leader of the Mormon Battalion. Soon after, numerous Mormon families started to migrate to the area. In 1850 Brigham Young, President of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints, established the basic plan for the city. More Mormon families were sent to settle the area, and in 1851 Deseret incorporated the city of Ogden, with Lorin Farr being called to serve as its first mayor. Later in 1851, Henry Sherwood surveyed the streets, blocks, and lots as planned by Brigham Young. An early Ogden journalist noted, "Those who planned the future of Ogden intended that the city should be a mile square; that they made the blocks to contain 10 acres, divided into 10 lots of one acre each; the blocks were 660 feet square and the streets were 99 feet wide excepting Main Street (Washington Boulevard) which was 132 feet wide; the first plat provided for 56 blocks, arranged in seven rows of eight blocks each."
Ogden Valley's geographical make-up played an important role in the early settlement of the city and subsequent development in the Central Bench District. On the eastern border of Ogden lies the Wasatch Mountain Range, with the Weber and Ogden Rivers flowing through it and emptying into the Great Salt Lake, lying just west of the city. In the early 1850s as Mormon families began to move to Ogden in large numbers, the most desirable land was that which was located between the two rivers in the northwest corner of town, with its rich soil and easy irrigation. A good portion of the area was surveyed into farming tracts and large numbers of people settled portions of the riverbanks. By the mid-1850s this desirable portion of town was largely populated and the community started to look eastward for expansion. And in 1855, under the direction of Isaac N. Goodale, appointed by Brigham Young, construction of the Ogden Bench Canal had begun. Canals and irrigation ditches were a common feature in almost all Mormon platted towns.
The building of the canal was an important endeavor, as an editorial in the Ogden-Standard Examiner stated in 1945, "The story of the Ogden Bench Canal is pretty much the history of early Ogden." The purpose of the canal was to use the canyon streams east of Ogden to provide irrigation to the bench area in order to sustain the newly developing community. Running north to south the canal flowed from the northern tier of the city (at the time 21st Street) to the southernmost boundary (28th Street), and from east to west it cut through just below 2nd East (Van Buren Avenue) and ended up near Green Street (Monroe Boulevard). Another important early canal was the Weber Canal.
