Hearing set for Friday
Hearing set for Friday
Arizona Democrats got a court order Thursday giving them access to a list of questioned ballots in a bid to have more of them verified even as Republicans go to court today to try to change ballot-counting procedures to help their own candidates in close races.
Maricopa County Superior Court Judge Daniel Kiley ordered County Recorder Adrian Fontes to give the party a list of those early ballots where there are signature-verification issues.
That same order also requires Fontes to produce a list of “provisional” ballots, those that are cast at the polls but are set aside because of potential problems, like the failure to have the proper identification. If they show up with the required ID within five business days, the ballots are counted; otherwise they are tossed.
With the order, Democrats will get both lists. That, in turn, enables them to find people on their own to make sure that they do contact Fontes’ office and take care of any problems to ensure their votes, presumably for Democrats, do count.
Meanwhile Brett Johnson, representing the GOP, wants to block four counties which have been giving more votes to Democrats than Republicans to stop contacting voters who turned in early ballots on Election Day but whose signatures apparently did not match what was on file in county offices.
Johnson does not dispute that election officials are free to contact voters to see if there’s an explanation, like a change in signature over time or perhaps even an illness. But he contends that process of “curing” ballots has to stop at 7 p.m. on Election Day — even for people who submitted their early ballots on time that day.
Both moves come amid efforts by Democrat Kyrsten Sinema to defeat Republican Martha McSally in the race to succeed Jeff Flake in the U.S. Senate, as well as the race between Democrat Kathy Hoffman and Republican Frank Riggs to be state schools chief.
What votes are counted from Maricopa County, along with Pima, Coconino and Apache counties, are important as all four are places where the Democrats outpoll the Republicans. More votes counted from each of these could break in favor of the Democrats.
At last count, Sinema and Hoffman had opened up narrow leads.
Central to the dispute before Mahoney later today is how early ballots are handled.
The first step is to see if the signature on the envelope matches the one they have on file. If not, most counties have procedures to contact the voter and see if they actually were the sender and if there is a reason for the disparity.
If everything checks out, the ballot is removed from the envelope and put into the stack to be counted.
In the four counties at issue, officials continue the verification process after Election Day.
By contrast, officials in the state’s other 11 counties — virtually of which have Republican voter registration edges and produced more votes for McSally and Riggs than their Democratic foes — do not contact voters when signatures do not match on ballots turned in on Election Day and do not count the votes inside.
Johnson, who represents Republican parties in the four affected counties, contends that disparity among the counties is unconstitutional.
“By arbitrarily counting and rejecting ballots from identically suited voters, defendants are systematically denying certain voters the right to vote in violation of the Equal Protection Clause,” he is arguing. And he contends there is “no statutory authorization” allowing county officials to do that after the polls close, saying the practice used in the four counties at issue “threatens to beget an extended period of confusion and uncertainty following the election.”
Johnson said the disparate decisions among county recorders on whether to try to contact voters means some people whose ballots are not counted “are suffering direct and irreparable injury.”
But attorney Colleen Connor of Maricopa County told Mahoney she should dismiss the lawsuit that was not filed until late Wednesday.
“This procedure was known prior to the election,” she said, saying if the Republicans had a problem with how those ballots were going to be handled they should have brought the issue to court earlier.
And Attorney Daniel Jurkowitz representing Pima County, said there is nothing in Arizona law requiring any verification to stop when the polls close.
“If plaintiffs want a deadline of 7 p.m. on Election Day to cure signatures on early ballots, they should seek a statute or regulation designating such,” he told the judge.
State GOP Chairman Jonathan Lines denied that the lawsuit is a bid to suppress votes from counties where the ballots were coming in more favorably for Sinema and Hoffman.
“We want all 15 counties to adhere to the same standards and timeline in fixing possible signature discrepancies on mail-in ballots,” he said in a prepared statement. “Voters have rights regardless of where they live.”
There was no immediate response from Lines to why the GOP did not file suit until the closeness of the races for U.S. Senate and state schools chief became apparent.
Mahoney may not even get a chance to decide the issue.
Connor pointed out that Johnson is alleging violations of the U.S. Constitution. And those, she said, should be heard in federal court.
If the case is transferred, that will only delay a resolution of the dispute. And that then threatens to violate a state law requiring that there be a formal canvass of election results within 20 days of the vote.

Chicago Launches Recovery Plan Data Transparency Website
Site provides residents with new tools to track progress and impact of Chicago Recovery Plan
Today, Mayor Lori E. Lightfoot announced the launch of a new data transparency website to enhance public access to key information on the City services and community investments made possible through the Chicago Recovery Plan. The new website, ChiRecoveryPlan.com, provides centralized access to data across dozens of individual programs and includes interactive maps to visualize the Chicago Recovery Plan’s footprint across the City’s 77 community areas.
“When I took office, I made a commitment to bring greater transparency and more robust civic engagement to City government,” said Mayor Lightfoot. “This first-of-its-kind transparency website highlights the unprecedented scope of the $1.2 billion in investments being made through the Chicago Recovery Plan while setting a new standard for government accountability.”
The Chicago Recovery Plan is the City’s plan to amplify once-in-a-generation federal funding to create an equity-based investment strategy and catalyze a sustainable economic recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic. This $1.2B investment funds dozens of programs across city departments covering 13 key priority areas ranging from affordable housing and community development to public health and violence prevention.
“For the first time, Chicago is opening the books on neighborhood investments in a simple, accessible digital format,” said Chief Technology Officer Nick Lucius. “This website is the result of a tremendous amount of painstaking, resident-focused research and development. It is a model for resident exploration of community investments that is flexible enough to accommodate a variety of city programs and services. A lot of data is generated by $1.2 billion dollars of programs, and this site delivers on Mayor Lightfoot’s commitment to transparency and accountability by making that data accessible to Chicago communities.”
ChiRecoveryPlan.com allows residents to see a comprehensive summary of the Chicago Recovery Plan programs active in their community. At a glance, users can see the number of trees planted nearby, where local businesses have received grants to reactivate vacant storefronts — and how many community members have participated in City youth programs. Residents can also use the site to conduct a deeper dive into how specific programs are serving residents citywide.
"At DataMade, we know that data doesn’t tell a story to everyone by itself,” said Hannah Cushman Garland, Partner at DataMade. “We are excited to partner with the City to organize this broad dataset by theme and geography to make it clear, relevant, and useful to Chicago residents and City staff alike. This project sets a new standard not just for transparency and accountability but also for accessibility and ease of use of government data products."

With 100 years of experience behind her, Florida resident Grace Linn has lived through a lot of history. Her husband was killed fighting the Nazis in World War II. Linn, a local resident, appeared at a Tuesday night meeting of the Martin County school board to speak out against the Florida book ban.
About 200 people, including many parents and grandparents, attended the meeting. Some speakers supported the removal of more than 80 titles from school libraries. But most speakers demanded that the titles be returned to school library shelves.
Linn had a message to deliver to Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis and the book banners in his state.
Watch Linn’s potent statement:
Books were removed last month after a parent, Julie Marshall, the head of the Martin County Moms for Liberty chapter, filed challenges—her right under recent laws introduced by DeSantis allowing parents to object to books they consider “inappropriate” for children.
Martin County is on the southeast coast of Florida. Donald Trump carried the county by a 62% to 37% margin over Joe Biden.
Several of the 40-plus speakers requested that the school board, at minimum, set up a committee to read the books and reconsider their removal. After listening to the speakers, the board took no immediate action to return or reconsider the removed books.
Among the books removed were Toni Morrison's The Bluest Eye and Beloved, which had been on high school shelves. Twenty books by best-selling romance novelist Jodi Picoult were removed from high school libraries—including The Story Teller, My Sister's Keeper, Lone Wolf, House Rules, and Keeping Faith — after objections that they were romance novels for adults, not children, Treasure Coast Palm reported.
Other titles removed included: Stamped: Racism, Antiracism and You by Jason Reynolds, Forever by Judy Blume, The Handmaid’s Tale by Margaret Atwood, and Khaled Hosseini’s The Kite Runner.
Linn, a 33-year resident of the area, was quite explicit in her comparisons when opposing the book ban. As she told the school board:
“I’m here to protest our school district’s book banning policy. My husband Robert Nichol was killed in action in World War II at a very young age —he was only 26—defending our democracy, constitution and freedoms.
“One of the freedoms that the Nazis crushed was the freedom to read the books that they banned. They stopped the free press, banned and burned books. The freedom to read which is protected by the First Amendment is our essential right and duty of our democracy.”
Linn also displayed a quilt she had made with the titles of books that had been banned and targeted over the years. The quilt displays such removed titles as Alice Walker’s The Color Purple, Nathaniel Hawthorne’s The Scarlet Letter, Charles Darwin’s The Origin of Species, Gustave Flaubert’s Madame Bovary, and Fahrenheit 451—Ray Bradbury’s novel about a future America in which “firemen” burn books outlawed by the government.
Local NBC/Fox affiliate WPTV’s Danielle Seat visited Linn at her home the day after the school board meeting. In the interview, Linn declared, "I care about this community and our country."
She held up her quilt and pointed to the title The Color Purple and said, "When I showed this to adult women, they'll say, 'Oh, no they didn't do that to The Color Purple." Linn also noted that she was “born the year after women got the right to vote,” and said she has devoted herself to ensuring that lessons learned in the past won’t be forgotten.
"History will repeat itself if you don't know history. History needs to be told, and everyone needs to know what went on in the past," she said. "Banning books and burning books are the same. Both are done for the same reason—fear of knowledge."
As Treasure Coast Palm reports, Marshall, who filed the initial challenge, said she had worked with like-minded parents to compile the list of books that should be removed. "Persecute me for standing on morality," she said. "I really don't care.”
Another book ban supporter, Elizabeth Crane, said, "I do not want pornography around my grandchildren or any children." She then remarked that she was in fourth grade when they removed prayer from schools, "and today kids have to read about rape."
Other parents said that no person or group should decide what books should be available to their children. Karen Janson, a parent, said people like Marshall didn’t speak for her.
"Judy Blume helped me through adolescence," Janson said. "Toni Morrison's The Bluest Eye helped me understand that I have privileges that my Black peers do not enjoy. Jodi Picoult continues to educate me on social issues that I do not fully comprehend. In order to be a united community, we must understand one another."
Some of the authors themselves have spoken out against the removal of their books from Martin County school libraries. Picoult has repeatedly protested Florida’s book bans on her Twitter feed.
Picoult’s The Storyteller is about the granddaughter of a Holocaust survivor who meets an elderly former SS officer. It includes some violent scenes, told in flashbacks from World War II, and an assisted suicide. In an email to The Washington Post, Picoult wrote:
“Martin County is the first to ban twenty of my books at once,” Picoult said, slamming such bans as “a shocking breach of freedom of speech and freedom of information.” A coastal county in the southeastern part of the state, Martin County is heavily Republican.
Picoult said she’s puzzled by the ban, because she does not “write adult romance,” as objections filed against her books claimed.
“Most of the books pulled do not even have a single kiss in them,” Picoult told us. “They do, however, include gay characters, and issues like racism, disability, abortion rights, gun control, and other topics that might make a kid think differently from their parents.”
“We have actual proof that marginalized kids who read books about marginalized characters wind up feeling less alone,” Picoult continued. “Books bridge divides between people. Book bans create them.”
James Patterson, the best-selling author of the Alex Cross crime mystery series, protested the removal of his Maximum Ride series from elementary school libraries in Martin County. They remain available in middle school and high school libraries. The young adult science fantasy novels are about the adventures of a family of human-avian hybrids created at an experimental lab.
In a tweet, Patterson, a Palm Beach resident, urged people to send “a polite note” to DeSantis, protesting the Martin County School District’s “arbitrary and borderline absurd decision” to ban the Maximum Ride series.
Treasure Coast Palm gave this detailed description of how the book removal process works under the new laws introduced by DeSantis:
Anyone can challenge a book in the school library, according to district policy. Once a challenge is made, the school's media specialist is required to review the book and make a recommendation whether to keep it on the shelf. Next, the school's principal meets with the person making the complaint to tell them of the decision.
The decision can be appealed to the director of curriculum and instruction and, ultimately, to the School Board. Parents also can request their children not be given access to certain books or materials.
State law requires media specialists undergo training and ensure library books are age-appropriate, free of pornography and not harmful to minor children. Violators could face a third-degree felony charge. The state Department of Education, in a presentation explaining the law, suggests media specialists "err on the side of caution" when selecting books.
Florida Education Association—the state’s largest teacher’s union—filed an administrative legal challenge on March 16, asserting that HB 1467, the law spurring the book bans, overreaches when it comes to those “media specialists” and their scope of influence, which goes beyond school libraries and also targets classroom collections.
Rather than seeking to roll back the entire law, though, the suit asserts that “the Department of Education expanded the scope of the law and went too far when it issued training for school librarians this year.”

Is it possible to look for a better specialize in a relationship firm than buying a Filipina? Certainly is the marriage you attempt to merged with a Offshore female likely in case you would not find the desired person through a relationship agency? These problems might seem puzzling for many who don’t know the answers. As a matter of fact, it’s not an out of the question predicament.
It is actually accurate that Filipina young ladies had been over-looked with regards to obtaining Oriental birdes-to-be. Women from other Asian countries are regarded as more gorgeous than the types by Asia. This is why they are often regarded as even more “ideal” pertaining to Far east males. Lovers with the eyes establish upon getting married to a Filipina have been completely limited to completing this task through marriage companies.
This is also precisely why the amount of Oriental wedding brides who is going to be bought by asain postal mail buy brides is limited. Though mexico wives this is an excellent idea for those who want to get a Filipino partner, it is not necessarily smart to ignore the possibility of finding a wonderful better half with the aid of marital life companies. A relationship agency, whilst they can be helpful, would not make sure most Oriental brides happen to be excellent. That’s the reason so why many Oriental wedding brides nonetheless embark upon to get married through relationship firms. Consequently , when you buy a Mexican wife from a relationship company, there exists still a small opportunity that you might end up having a Filipina new bride.
Even though the majority of Cookware females are believed to become higher than their particular China alternatives, the majority are not blessed with all the same facial features because their counterparts. As the majority of females are definitely not blessed with in a natural way stunning features, it is only natural they are unable to resemble the Hard anodized cookware furnishings. Lovers ought to recognize that a lot of the Filipinas exactly who can be obtained through relationship businesses do not have the cosmetic features that could let them have the illusion to be Oriental.
Couples should keep in mind that Filipinas have difficulty preserving permanent romances. So , it is important to enable them to appreciate the fact that the distinctions between Filipinas and Hard anodized cookware wedding brides can be big. Couples should understand that a marriage company would not guarantee that they are going to obtain a Filipina better half.
In the past, a Filipina whom got married through a marriage company would probably possess lived in various country before having a wedding. A great number of Filipinas were originally right from South America. The actual cause of this can be that in South America, a Filipina would generally progress back to her family home following matrimony. If she’s any children, these children would consequently become lifted by way of a grandmothers.
Lots of people feel that the lifestyle and customs of an Filipina do not let her to have children. However , this may not be accurate. In fact , occasionally, a Filipina would be able to own children. Yet , this could depend on the lady their self.
A relationship firm is normally certainly not the proper place to find a Chinese or perhaps Philippine woman. Provided that an individual is happy to have a risk trying to set his marriage along with an Oriental woman, they might look for a Filipina who would be able to suit the mold. Each person has the ability to discover a Filipina who’s ready to experience these questions more traditional method, they might consider wedding ceremony firm like a huge slip-up.

Eighty years after the invention of white chocolate, pink chocolate has officially become the fourth type of chocolate brought into the world, after the Swiss chocolate company Barry Callebaut revealed that they invented "Ruby" chocolate at an event today in Shanghai, China.
Ruby chocolate gets its reddish-pink hue from the Ruby cocoa bean and has a faint, but naturally-occurring taste that "is not bitter, milky or sweet, but a tension between berry-fruitiness and luscious smoothness," according to a press release. "This is really a mix between the fruitiness, sourness and berry taste," the company's dessert chef Martin Diez told Reuters.
Despite how it looks and taste, the company confirmed that there is no colouring, berries or flavouring added to the new type of chocolate.
While there's no hard date when this will be available to buy in shops, the company hinted that it should be available worldwide soon.
"We're looking forward to working with our partners on introducing this innovative breakthrough to the market and making the new Ruby chocolate category available to chocolate manufacturers and consumers around the world," says Peter Boone, Barry Callebaut's Chief Innovation & Quality Officer.


Braves pitcher Manny Banuelos underwent surgery Thursday to remove a bone spur in his left elbow. His season will come to a close following the procedure, but at least the issue isn't anything too significant in nature. The young southpaw should be ready for spring training, at which point he'll likely battle for a rotation spot in 2016.
Braves pitcher Manny Banuelos has been scratched from his next start, which had been scheduled for Friday. Banuelos is still being bothered by an elbow issue that forced him to miss more than a month of action earlier this season. The right-hander is expected to have another vist with Dr. James Andrews next week before the Braves announce when Banuelos will take the mound next. The Braves are confident that there is no structural damage to his surgically repaired elbow, but the residual pain has caused some concern, according to the Atlanta Journal-Constitution.
The pounding Braves starter Manny Banuelos absorbed in his first outing since returning from an elbow injury has not prevented Fredi Gonzalez from keeping him in the rotation for now. Gonzalez confirmed that Banuelos will start Sunday in Washington, but will be limited to about 70-75 pitches, per MLB.com. Banuelos performed well during a three-week stint in July before going down. But he allowed three runs on six hits in just 2 2/3 innings Tuesday against Miami.
The first start after activation from the disabled list was not what Braves left-hander Manny Banuelos had in mind. Banuelos couldn't make it out of the third inning against visiting Miami. He allowed three runs on six hits in 2 2/3 innings with one walk and no strikeouts. Three singles and a walk resulted in two runs on his ledger in the first. An RBI single by Conor Gillespie in the third knocked him out of the game. The poor outing raised his ERA on the year to 3.33.
The Braves made a flurry of roster moves with the expansion of the roster on Tuesday. Left-hander Manny Banuelos (elbow) was activated from the 15-day disabled list, and he'll start Tuesday's game against the Marlins. Additionally, right-handers Danny Burawa and Brandon Cunniff , as well as infielders Hector Olivera and Daniel Castro were recalled from Triple-A Gwinnett.

When I first heard about the 1960 Royal Enfield 700cc Interceptor, I attempted to argue with the guy who told me about them. Turns out they're real. Enfield was working on the Interceptor design, and built a few prototypes using a hot-rodded Constellation engine, and shipped them to the US in 1960, two years before the formal introduction of the 750 Interceptor.
According to the wikipedia article about Interceptors they made 163 of them. Other sources put the number at 170 and 211. According to Burton Bike Bits Interceptor Registry there are only 9 (not counting this one) known to exist, either as complete bikes or as correctly numbered crankcases or frames. Mine would make 10.
I discovered what this was after I sent a list of engine numbers for crankcases that are in my possession to the REOC-UK to help them update a database they're compiling based on factory records vs what is known to exist now.
The following is copies of part of an email exchange I had with the REOC president regarding the engine and frame numbers that I sent to him.
Thank you for the engine numbers.
We didn't have any of the YB numbers you gave, so that's another three added to the listing.
This unfortunately also means that I cannot date or verify your comlete machine as it is not in our records - will have to assume that it is an original pair for now.
The damaged cases with a VAX number are from a 700cc Interceptor despatched in April 1960.
Your Tomahawk is even more interesting as the frame number has nothing recorded against it in the ledgers. The machines either side have similar engine numbers to yours, however, so it is an original machine although it was probably despatched in 1957, possibly '58 but definitely not '59.
As we do not have this machine in the records, I would most grateful if you could take a picture of the complete bike and close ups of the frame / engine numbers and let me have them as email attachments.
Please let me have the numbers of the frames you have as well - I can let you know what they are (hopefully) and annotate our records that the bike has been broken up.
Graham, I've found three Enfield frames in my collection of parts that I
forgot that I had.
I think they're all 500 or 700 twin frames.
The numbers are 6828, 7651, and 11051.
The two lower numbered ones don't have the large plate-type head steady
lug welded to the main tube. 11051 does have one of these, plus holes
for the triangular aluminum block behind the gearbox. It has an older
style swingarm with bronze bushings and grease fittings.
I hope this is of help in completing your records. Two of these frames,
6828 and 11051 are still usable, 7651 was "re-engineered" by some
shade-tree mechanic who thought an Enfield frame would work better as a
full-cradle frame. I'm afraid that if one was to cut off the crude lump
of pipe that was welded to the downtube, it would weaken the downtube
enough that it wouldn't be safe to use the frame.
I'd love to hear what model/year these frames are from.
Thank you for the numbers.
7651 is a December '58 Apache (Brockhouse).
6828 could be either a May '58 Apache (Brockhouse) or a July '63 500 Sports
I don't know enough about these to verify which one, even with a photo of
11051 is an April '60 700cc Interceptor, often referred to as the "VAX"
model, this being the engine prefix.
All these engines had 60xxx numbers, but the damaged cases you have are not
from the engine originally fitted to this frame.
After realizing that I had some potentially valuable parts, I dragged them out into the light, and realized that I'd misread the frame number, so I sent an email with the updated number.
Graham, I've got several people who are very interested in that vax
interceptor frame, so I got it out of storage to take some pictures, and
discovered that I'd misread the number.
It's 11059, not 11051.
Is this outside of the range for a VAX Interceptor?
Confirmed that I had an engine and frame which came from the same bike.
Assumption correct - your "corrected" frame number 11059 was indeed shipped
with engine VAX 60219 fitted during April 1960.
Then I got to thinking about the number stamped on the front of the same engine. I'd been told that this number represented the number stamped on the gearbox that was originally shipped with the engine as parts of the same bike.
Once again, I discover that I had a serial numbered part that came from this same rare Royal Enfield.
Another piece of the puzzle dropped into place when I remembered that I had one crankcase with no number stamped on it. This was among the parts in the purchase I made which included the VAX Interceptor. It's believed that Enfield shipped un-numbered crankcases to their dealers to install when an engine wasn't found to be repairable. They were probably expected to stamp it with the number from the original engine. This crankcase was probably the replacement for the one that was broken by a thrown connecting rod. Why the original owner bothered to keep the broken one, I don't know, but it was a good decision.
Here are pictures of the parts I have to build a VAX interceptor. All the other parts can be obtained, either from newly manufactured parts, or used parts. I have most of the engine parts that are needed.
Now I need to decide if I want a third Royal Enfield project, or if I should pass this on to someone else.
I've recieved offers.
I have just chanced upon the entry for your Tomahawk in the factory ledgers.
Some fool wrote it up in the 700cc book, so I have transferred it into the correct 500cc file on my spreadsheets.
It left Redditch on 28th November 1957 for the Brockhouse depot in the UK, then on to USA.

The up and down is exhausting, but on the upside, I’m out of the hole—tired, but free to roam about the land of the living. Life has been on hold, so enough about me, I’ve expended myself.
I have a lot of thanks to give, so let’s make this about you. All of you, here and there, in ink and thought and action.
This has been an emotional space of late, heavy, mostly.

All the work for the family bbq done, all I have to do is lay the table in the garden and thread the chicken onto kebab sticks. Now this should be a quick, painless episode but although I’d thought ahead and soaked wooden sticks, decided to use my ancient metal skewers, now tarnished with rust. Although scrubbed smooth, they are far from it but the worst thing is the blunt point so stabbing is tortuous. Definitely time for a new set. Everyone loves barbecued sausages and that’s today’s sidekick, so they need to be oiled. Fortunately nobody minds when they get a tad overdone, as they usually do, and they did today. All in all it was a feast; the pea, bean and watercress cous cous, top dollar tomato salad and tzatziki a winning combo. Very delicious English strawberries and almost chewy Italian vanilla ice cream were the perfect conclusion. I laid a bowl of caster sugar just in case anyone wanted ‘a surface’ on their strawberries as my mother always did and right on cue my brother Adam did. A pot of nduja winked at me from the fridge when it came to thoughts of supper and a generous spoonful stirred into simmering baked beans transformed poached eggs on toast for supper.
The Barristers cute and stunningly efficient little bbq was refuelled for lamb kebabs (neck fillet from March Farm, the brilliant butcher at Chiswick Farmers Market) marinated in a rosemary, garlic, lemon zest and olive oil then threaded on pre-soaked wooden skewers and eaten with leftover cous cous, tzatziki and tomato salad. I love barbecue meals, the only down side is the clearing up: soaking then scrubbing the rack and the inevitable spilling the ash.
Very excited to be seeing The Lehman Trilogy tonight. It’s on at the theatre opposite Zedel, so I met the Barrister there in the American Bar for a quick drink before what turned out to be a spellbinding performance. Very good luck to almost literally bump into Jeremy King, the suave and elegant boss of the place. As we called for the bill, we discovered he’d already cancelled the tab. We almost ran round the corner to Bocca di Lupo for a late supper. Instead of taking up our table, we perched on high stools at the bar. I love bar eating and our quickly ordered food brought us a succession of delights. Melanzane alla parmigiana, bruschetta with sautéed bianchetti and best of all baccala – home salted cod creamed into garlicky deliciousness. If you get the chance, do see the play and do go to this consistently good restaurant. And remember Zedel too, so handy for every occasion.
Invited to dinner by friends of the Barrister who I met briefly ages ago. They love potatoes, specially Charlottes which they grow in their veg garden just outside Winchester (lucky devils; oh to have an allotment again). On one of the hottest nights of the summer, a welcome breeze blew through their airy riverside apartment and we feasted on boiled Charlottes smothered with creme fraiche topped with very good faux caviare. I first had this wonderful combo many years ago at a very chic, very big garden dinner in St Tropez (thank you Joseph Berkmann of Berkmann Wine Cellars). The meal started at 10.30 with champagne and cold little potatoes topped with creme fraiche and real caviare, followed with poached sea bass and sauce vierge. Both dishes have been a mainstay of my repertoire ever since. It was very touching to be served my own food and I’m pleased to say everything, including the rich and robust chicken cooked in vinegar that followed, went down very well with all of us.
The Barrister and I are catching an early Eurostar tomorrow, so this morning I did a huge fridge clear out to take with me when I deliver my lurcher Red to her doggy friend Wilbur for her summer holidays. The pride and joy of the food parcel, though, was picking two big handfuls of skinny French beans from the front garden. I’d planted a dozen plants and they’re all flourishing, climbing up and over their climbing frame escaping over the magnolia and olive tree. The latter was a gift from Sacla, the pesto people, in their early days, when pesto was a foreign word and we didn’t know how it was going to change our eating habits. The basil too, planted in an old window box, is growing wildly so I’ll soon be making my own pesto; a lovely gift to take to friends.
I was starving when I got back from the dog drop and fell on two thick slices of pugliese bread toasted from frozen and slathered with the last of Sunday’s seriously squidgy Gorgonzola.
Our holiday really began with dinner at Parsons, an absolute gem of a restaurant in Covent Garden. I remember the premises from my restaurant days as Diana’s Diner but the makeover is a transformation, with tables outside too. the meal began with their very good bread smeared with extraordinarily good anchovy purée. It has the texture of molten, dark chocolate sauce with hints of vinegar and tomato ketchup, a terrific balance of sweet, sour, salty, creamy and fishy. The Barrister starter of frito misto to start was a generous mound of perfectly crisp crumbed, deep fried seafood. My salmon tartare with Bloody Mary jelly was a triumph of two elongated mounds of finely chopped, creamy salmon topped with soft blobs of the jelly sliding off the mounds. My goodness this was good. We shared a plump, big plaice, roasted head-off, burnished and smeared with a lemony hollandaise with hints of chives. It was easy to lift off the fillets, then the bone, to reveal the two underneath fillets and plenty of sauce to moisten the perfectly cooked fish. Great chips and one of the finest lettuce salads ever known to man. Apart from a very elegant vinaigrette, the lettuce had been taken apart, trimmed and then reassembled in the bowl. Class.
Breakfast on Eurostar. A rather good croissant with butter and jam. Mucky people like me dunk it in their (also good) coffee. Lunch (which seemed to arrive about 10 minutes later) was one of those non-specific chicken dishes with a bland, creamy sauce but nudged next to it was a big wedge of very good pommes Dauphinoise. Pud was an above average apricot Frangipane tart with a blob of something creamy. Dinner outside in the courtyard of our lovely hotel in Avignon. We both had tender medallions of lamb with two poached banana shallots, pats of truffle flecked butter and a pool of potato purée with meat jus. With it we had extraordinary courgettes cut in big batons, dipped in batter, deep fried and served ‘planted’ in a bowl of toasted sesame seeds. what a joy it is to be back in France.
Up in good time for the classic French hotel buffet; a splendid display of several bowls and platters of all seasonal fruit, tiny little croissant, freshly baked, crusty bread, plenty of tempting pastries, the option for eggs every which way, not to mention a buffet of charcuterie and cheeses. And very, very good cafe creme. Wandering around Avignon was a joy, so many good shops of all types but no food buying for us. Yet. An early lunch at a cafe with tables spilling onto the square in front of it was a ringside seat for the stream of theatrical troupe who stopped, performed and handed out flyers for their shows later that night at the town’s equivalent of the Edinburgh Festival.
We tucked into a freshly made Salade Nicoise, resisting the crusty flute as best we could. Next up was collect the hire car and head for The Big Shop. I’ve been looking forward to this moment and the B and I had our list ready, divvying up the who gets what and loving every moment. French supermarkets are very tempting places and I daren’t tell you what the bill was. I popped a couple of veal chops and handful of slim, small carrots in my trolley for supper and my what a treat they both turned out to be. I cannot remember eating such tasty carrots; childhood carrot flavour. Must buy more.

2. Item presales
You have some other options if you have an established base of customers. Perhaps you are in a position to presell services and products to customers just before create the products or services. You are paid by the customer for something which they receive later on. Much like any form of loan, you do have an responsibility. In this full instance, it is to deliver the merchandise or solution in the foreseeable future.

Community pulls together for tourney
August 10, 2004
From the 1963 Legion A state champions to Mike Huston’s milestone 1,000th win in 2004, the roots of Greeley baseball keep growing deeper.
And now they’re spreading out nationally.
For just the third time in the 54-year history of the Legion A Western Regional Tournament, Colorado will host the tournament, and members of the Greeley community did everything they could to make sure they brought it to Northern Colorado soil.
“This is the biggest thing to be in Greeley in a long time,” said Billy Mansfield, a pitcher/infielder for GoJo Sports after last week’s state tournament. “It will be fun to play in front of so many people.”
State champions from Arizona, California, Colorado, Hawaii, Nevada, New Mexico, and Utah, along with host team Greeley GoJo Sports, begin play today to earn the right to advance to the World Series in Corvallis, Ore.
“It reflects on the continued history of student-athletes’ efforts in making Greeley synonymous with outstanding baseball,” said John Haefeli, tournament chairman. “People say Pueblo is a baseball town and Grand Junction and Greeley and that’s because of the athletes and coaches that have coordinated this entire program.”
Recommended Stories For You
Greeley has never sent a team to the national tournament, but support for Legion baseball has been evident since the plan to host the event was put in place almost two years ago.
The city helped the Legion board submit a professional bid to host the event and since it was accepted, the work has been nonstop to get the city ready for the invasion of some of the top young talent in the nation.
Throughout the process, 11 committees and more than 100 volunteers have worked to pull off a top-notch event, taking care of details from everything to picking up teams at Denver International Airport to picking up trash at the field.
The field itself was a big part of getting the bid accepted. Along with gifts from community members, the city has made improvements that include a new press box and central bleachers worth $110,000. The Gary Harper family donated $6,000 to draw up the plans. Four years ago, the city extended the fences and redid the lights at a cost of $82,500. The city also revamped the dugouts with help from Slaughter Roofing Company, while the Morgan family foundation donated a new scoreboard.
As far as putting the tournament together with help from gifts and organizations like the Colorado Rockies and Legion Post No. 18, Haefeli estimated that it has taken more than $170,000 to make this a top-notch event.
All of that hard work will pay off on opening day, in the hope of putting Greeley baseball on the national map and bringing a sense of pride to the community.
“The legacy this is leaving to the community is incredible,” Haefeli said.
“There will always be that legacy for the community to be seen as a baseball community, not just in the state of Colorado, but in the United States. It leaves the legacy that that this community is capable of hosting a regional tournament and people are excited to play here.”

There are many aspects to consider, whether are looking for information about mesothelioma claim lawsuits or have been diagnosed with mesothelioma. It is imperative to seek medical attention immediately. This will help you get the information you need to decide what you should do next.
Statute of limitations
You could be entitled to compensation, regardless of whether you were exposed to mesothelioma or asbestos. Before you sign a settlement, it’s essential to understand your rights. There are numerous federal laws that could affect your ability to receive compensation.
The statute of limitations is the legal limitation on when you can file suit. This can differ from one state to the next. Some statutes have a one-year limitation, while other statutes have a three- or four-year deadline. Certain statutes could even restrict the kind of claim you can submit.
The statute of limitations is an important aspect in mesothelioma lawsuits. You must make a claim before the time limit expires to ensure you are compensated for your mesothelioma and other Asbestos compensation related diseases.
Each state has its own statute of limitations on mesothelioma litigation. Your lawyer should be able to determine the appropriate time frame for your particular situation. If you’re unsure whether you have a claim you should consult a mesothelioma attorney. They’ll be able to give you an estimate of how long your case could take.
The statute of limitations for mesothelioma can vary from one state to the next. However, the most common time frame is two years from the date the disease was first discovered. Certain states also have a “survivalstatute” that allows you to start a new lawsuit after the first one has ended.
Class action options
There are many options for mesothelioma lawsuits. The first step is to find an experienced lawyer who is well-versed in asbestos and the asbestos industry. They will conduct an investigation into the extent of your exposure, gather evidence, and represent you in court. They will also assist you settle the case for a reasonable amount.
One of the most effective methods to fight for mesothelioma compensation is to start a personal injury lawsuit. In this type of lawsuit, the plaintiff is responsible for the negligence of the business that caused the injury.
This type of lawsuit seeks to recover for any damages you’ve suffered as a result of asbestos exposure. The damages may include the loss of earnings and retirement contributions. They may also include expenses related to treatment or other benefits.
A class action lawsuit is a type which is filed on behalf of several people who have suffered the exact same injury. They help save time and money, and also speed up the process of judicial adjudication. However, the compensation provided in a class action lawsuit is generally not as high as in a single lawsuit.
Another alternative is to sue manufacturer of asbestos-containing products. These manufacturers hid asbestos case‘ dangers and did not warn their customers about the dangers. They also did not provide adequate compensation for high-damage victims. Many of these victims didn’t receive any compensation whatsoever.
Medical reports confirm a diagnosis
X-rays and CT scans are generally the first tests done when a patient arrives at a clinic with suspicious symptoms. The open procedure may be the best option in certain cases. Based on the specific situation, a complete blood count might be considered. This is the most effective method to determine if you have cancer.
A mesothelioma specialist is the most effective method to determine if you are suffering from it. A doctor will conduct an exhaustive medical history and perform a physical exam. This is done with the intention of determining whether your symptoms are indicative of mesothelioma as well being able to determine your overall health status. If your doctor thinks you are in the beginning stages of disease, they might recommend several more tests. This could include an MRI.
Other tests include a pulmonary function test, an x-ray of the chest and abdomen and an x-ray of the abdomen and chest. If you have the misfortune of contracting mesothelioma you may have to deal with a host of complications. In rare instances doctors may recommend open surgery to remove the tumor from the lungs. Fortunately, a lot of these cases are able to be treated successfully. There are other options that are less invasive for patients who don’t want to have a major surgery.
Fluid drainage is among the most effective ways to detect mesothelioma. It draws out fluid from the pleural effusion. The fluid is then pumped out with the needle or catheter.
Despite the many different treatment options for mesothelioma, the cost of treatment can be extremely high. There are numerous resources that can help alleviate some of the financial burden.
The cost of treatment is different depending on the kind of surgery, radiation therapy, or chemotherapy the patient is receiving. While certain treatments are covered by insurance, a lot of patients will require their own funds to pay for them.
Treatment costs also depend on whether or the patient is participating in the course of a clinical trial. In a trial, participants are typically offered experimental drugs. In addition, they could be required to pay transportation costs to get to treatment facilities.
Some treatments are covered by Medicare, Asbestos compensation Medicaid, or Medicare Part B. Patients with low income may be eligible for Supplemental Security Income or Social Security Disability Insurance. These programs can pay up to half of treatment costs.
In addition to medical expenses, mesothelioma patients may also need to pay for lost wages while they are in hospital. Many mesothelioma sufferers hire caregivers to assist with everyday tasks. They can also assist with household chores. Although the cost for hiring a caregiver can vary however, it is likely to be lower than treatment.
Some of the medications used to treat mesothelioma do not have to be covered by insurance. For assistance with medication payments patients should contact the pharmaceutical companies directly. They might be able to negotiate for the charges to be reduced.
Whether you have been diagnosed with mesothelioma or have loved ones who have died of it, it’s important to know what your state’s deadline is for filing a mesothelioma suit. Late filings could prevent you from receiving the compensation you are entitled to.
Mesothelioma is a serious illness and you’ll need to seek medical attention as soon as you notice symptoms. A knowledgeable attorney is highly recommended. They can guide you through the laws in your state to ensure that your claim is filed in time.
The statute of limitations can differ from one state the next. Some states allow one year, whereas others allow for three or four years. Depending on the degree of your illness the statute of limitations may be extended in some cases.
There are many factors that influence the time required to file a mesothelioma lawsuit. These include the nature of mesothelioma’s symptoms, whether or not you reside in the state where you were diagnosed, and the type of asbestos to which you was exposed.
A lawyer who specializes in asbestos litigation can help you decide whether or not you should file a lawsuit. They will analyze your case and provide advice on your options. They can assist you in obtaining compensation from your health insurance or disability insurance.
You may be awarded punitive damage in a mesothelioma lawsuit. These damages are meant to penalize the negligent defendant. They are also used as a deterrent for future wrongdoing.
After compensatory damages have been awarded, punitive damages are usually granted. The amount of punitive damage determined will be based on a variety of factors such as the severity of the injury, the length of time the plaintiff has suffered and the degree of the negligence or reckless conduct. In certain cases the amount of punitive damages is in excess of compensatory damages.
The first thing to consider when looking at punitive damages is the law that governs them. Certain states have strict guidelines on how they can be awarded. Others require a particular screening. They are responsible for 52% in states that allow punitive damages.
Both sides will gather evidence during the discovery stage of a mesothelioma lawsuit. This stage of the legal process includes depositions, interviews, and other forms of gathering evidence.
Preponderance is the American standard for proof. This is the least-required standard of proof.
Another standard of proof is whether the punitive damages are enough. These punitive damages must be reported as a source of income. The amount of punitive damages should not exceed the actual harm suffered by the defendant.

PHOTOS: How Rain Has Gone from Hot to Hotter
Rain's first album 'Bad Guy' in 2002. Back when wearing the silk pajama style was cool.
Rain in 2004 when he filmed Full House. The lower tummy pudge!
During his 2005 Rainy Day Tour. I see no abs in this photo, could it have been the angle?
Rain in 2006 on the cover of his album, 'Rain's World.' Tanned and a bit more cut, with the hip V-line sexy thing! But instead of his body to be honest, I can't stop looking at those huge freakin wings. (o_0)
I thought I'd also include the creepy statue that was made of Rain with those wings. Who wants a life-size Rain statue in their garden?!
In 2008 Rain released his album 'Rainism.' His lower tummy pudge is like non-existent, and it's totally obvious his body fat decreased tremendously.
In 2009 Rain went on a crazy strict diet to achieve a lean, super fit body for his role in the movie 'Ninja Assassin.'
Rain released the album 'Back to Basic' in 2010 which included my favorite song, 'Hip Song.' He also filmed Runaway: Plan B that same year. He was totally glistening that year! Literally, he glistened while his hips sung louder than him!
Rain as we all know is currently completing the final months of his 2 year military service soo we have to wait to see what his body looks like when he comes out. However, here he is looking fit in uniform!
So what do you think of Rain's body evolution? Which year was your favorite?

The drummer’s work with James Brown provided a foundation for hip-hop.
Tributes began pouring in Saturday afternoon as news emerged that Clyde Stubblefield had died at age 73 of kidney failure. The longtime Madison resident first made his name drumming in James Brown’s band, playing breaks that would become among the most sampled in hip-hop and without which that genre’s origins would simply not have been the same.
Madisonians often encountered Stubblefield through his long-running Funky Mondays residency, which took place over the years at O’Cayz Corral, the King Club, and The Frequency. He took a break from it for several years, but revived it in late 2015 as a monthly gig at the High Noon Saloon. Stubblefield and his band just recently celebrated the release of a new live CD. My favorite Stubblefield memory is seeing him play with DJ Kool Herc in 2007 at the Terrace.
One of Stubblefield’s most recent interviews was on the drumming podcast The Trap SetThe Trap Set. It’s definitely worth a listen.
As NPR’s Daoud Tyler-Ameen pointed out, “for most of his career, Stubblefield was better known in sound than in name.” Brown was notorious for shorting his musicians on credit and royalties, and Stubblefield struggled even decades later to get paid for the many songs on which he is sampled.

VALLEJO, Calif. - City Councilman Robert McConnell was leading over fellow City Councilman Hakeem Brown in the race to become Vallejo’s next mayor, according to partial returns Tuesday night.
McConnell, a lawyer, was leading with 41.14% of the vote; Brown had 38.07%, according to Solano County election results.
Speaking to KTVU by phone, McConnell said he did not want to declare victory just yet. He said he wants to wait until the election results are certified. According to John Gardner, Assistant Registrar of Voters in Solano County, it will likely take officials 20 days to certify the results of the election.
“This is not a time for jubilation, it's a time for reflection,” McConnell said. “We have a tremendous amount of work to do in this city, but this city is not alone. We are not an isolated case and in many ways we are somewhat better than other cities because we have recognized we have these problems.”
McConnel plans to make the city’s financial responsibility a top priority. He said Vallejo has been named as a defendant in 22 civil rights violations related to excessive force and alleged police misconduct. McConnell said that could potentially lead to an estimated city payout ranging from $40 million to $60 million and he does not want Vallejo to go back into Chapter 9 Bankruptcy as it did in May 2008.
“It will depend on the negotiations but if we do not prevail in that area, then Chapter 9 will be an answer that we will have no choice but to follow. It's a very distinct possibility,” he said.
McConnell is also focused on changing the culture of the police department. He would like to see people join the department who are trained in dealing with mental health issues and can help the homeless. McConnell said he advocated for state regulations for law enforcement agencies so that officer involved shootings and other serious crimes are investigated by an independent state agency and not the local district attorney’s office.
If he does become the certified winner of the election, McConnell plans to create a domestic violence task force to help victims. It comes in light of the community’s response to the domestic violence conviction and allegations against challenger Hakeem Brown.
“It has impacted many, many people very deeply with great emotion so we can't just move on and forget that as if it never existed,” McConnell said.
The news website, Open Vallejo, recently exposed Brown's criminal history, which included domestic violence and gun convictions.
A small recall protest was launched by grassroots activists last month.
Brown released the following statement to KTVU on Wednesday:
I have always said that I respect the will of the voters. While we await every vote to be counted, I recognize the numbers don’t look to be in my favor.
I am deeply humbled by the show of support from voters who checked my name on the ballot. Obviously it didn’t turn out the way we had hoped, but I always said I would respect the will of the voters. The work continues, and I look forward to collaborating with the new mayor and our community to address the greatest challenges our city faces so we can all move Vallejo forward, together.
It has been an especially difficult election season, but I never went into this thinking it would be easy. I am someone who has worked hard to overcome challenges and rebuild my life, and I will work equally hard to do the same for Vallejo. No woman should be abused mentally or physically by anyone. While I own up to my past mistakes and hold myself accountable for them, I think it’s also important to stand up for the truth. The truth is that many of the allegations are baseless. Of course I am disappointed by the outcome of my mayoral race, but I will work tirelessly with the new mayor and my colleagues on the city council for the people of Vallejo.
There are a total of five people vying to be Vallejo's mayor.
Other candidates include educator John B. Kenney, social services worker Cornisha Williams-Bailey, and M. Avonelle Hanley-Mills, who described herself as a “transformative advocate.”

This album has some really great tracks on it. I first heard it not long after it had been completed, and now, several years later, I am still discovering tracks I had never properly listened to. The way that this album contrasts (in particular) to the Grey Album is really great too.

The role of the strength of family history of stones (FHS), i.e., degree of relatives with the disease, on the course of calcium urolithiasis (CU) is not fully understood, particularly in young patients where genetic background has the greatest influence on disease expression. Thus, with a retrospective cross-sectional design, we examined baseline clinical parameters and urinary chemistries of 369 subjects (196 M) with CU and 96 controls (41 M) aged between 15 and 25 at the time of the first visit at our stone clinic. Subjects with metabolic syndrome traits, known causes of CU or CU onset before the age of 15 were excluded. Clinical and metabolic parameters were compared among stone formers (SF) and controls, stratified by gender, the presence and type of FHS determined through the kinship coefficient of relatives with stones. No significant differences in clinical course were found between SF with and without FHS, except for the presence of bilateral stones (OR 2.01, 95% CI 1.20–3.39, p < 0.01). A significant age-, sex- and disease duration-adjusted trend for a higher number of colics (p for trend = 0.001), number of stones (p for trend = 0.002), stone rate (p for trend = 0.003) and the presence of retained stones (OR 1.60, 95% CI 1.14–2.21, p = 0.006) was detected with increasing FHS strength. Urinary chemistries were unaffected by FHS in both SF and controls, except for a higher calcium excretion in females with FHS (p < 0.05). The type of FHS, thus, significantly influences the clinical course of CU in young SF, mainly irrespective of urinary factors.
Calcium urolithiasis course in young stone formers is influenced by the strength of family history: results from a retrospective study / Guerra, Angela; Ticinesi, Andrea; Allegri, Franca; Nouvenne, Antonio; Pinelli, Silvana; Lauretani, Fulvio; Maggio, Marcello Giuseppe; Cervellin, Gianfranco; Borghi, Loris; Meschi, Tiziana. - In: UROLITHIASIS. - ISSN 2194-7228. - 45(2017), pp. 525-533.

Feminist philosophy meets family memoir in a fresh essay collection by the award-winning essayist and novelist Siri Hustvedt, author of the bestselling What I Loved and Booker Prize-longlisted The Blazing World.
Siri Hustvedt's relentlessly curious mind and expansive intellect are on full display in this stunning new collection of essays, whose subjects range from the nature of memory and time to what we inherit from our parents, the power of art during tragedy, misogyny, motherhood, neuroscience, and the books we turn to during a pandemic. Drawing on family history as well as her own life and experiences, she examines the porousness of borders of all kinds in a masterful intellectual journey that is at once personal and universal. Ultimately, Mothers, Fathers, and Others reminds us that the boundaries we take for granted-between ourselves and others, between art and viewer-are far less stable than we imagine.
Format: 24 x 16 cm
«Dizzyingly flexible, deeply human, often funny, Mothers, Fathers, and Others blasts aside our preconceptions and urges us to see the world as it is.»
«In precise yet luxuriant prose Hustvedt uses her family history to explore questions of memory and identity.»
«Ranging from portraits of her family, through female artists and authors, to the sometimes disturbing eruptions of the male psyche, this is an extremely well-written exploration of the hinterland of a modern feminist. More than once, I found myself comparing her analyses to Socratic dialogues, and there can be no higher praise than that.»
«Another outstanding compilation of essays from Hustvedt. As in her previous standout collections, the author shares personal, familial stories as well as incisive ruminations on a breadth of literary, political, arcane, and germane subjects . . . Although each essay is a stand-alone piece, their cumulative effect is staggering. Themes related to sexual hierarchies abound . . . The author, one of our most appealing literary polymaths, quotes innumerable resources, and she maintains a pleasingly nuanced balance between striking originality and intellectual synthesis . . . Brilliant and utterly transfixing.»
«Memoir, psychoanalysis, feminist theory and literary criticism combine in a thoughtful essay collection . . . Now, as issues of surrogacy and trans motherhood pose fresh challenges, feminism's confrontation with the issue feels newly urgent. Siri Hustvedt joins the fray with a mixture of directness and obliqueness. She takes on motherhood from every direction, combining memoir with ethnography, the history of science and psychoanalysis, literary and art criticism.»
«American novelist and feminist philosopher Siri Hustvedt is a wonderful essayist, equally at ease discussing the thoughts of Plato or the lyrics of Tom Waits. Her new collection is replete with personal history and recollection, and sparkles with small descriptive gems.»
«Mothers, Fathers, and Others, showcases a wonderfully relaxed erudition. Blending family memoir and feminist philosophy, its subjects include misogyny, motherhood and what we inherit from our parents»
«Siri Hustvedt takes feminist discourse to a new level . . . a powerful collection with an impressive variety of disciplines through whose prism the themes of art, motherhood, neuroscience, misogyny and sex are revealed. It is an engaging and educational read that makes a valuable contribution to contemporary feminist discourse.»
Hustvedt has won the International Gabarron Prize for Thought and Humanities and the European Essay Prize for her essay The Delusions of Certainty. She is a Lecturer in Psychiatry at Weill Cornell Medical College and has written on art for the New York Times and the Daily Telegraph. Born in Minnesota, Siri Hustvedt lives in Brooklyn, New York.
