In 1976, a few buddies opened a pizza joint. And from the start they agreed to base OId Chicago on a few basic principles: Serve up delicious, handmade pizza, have the best lineup of cold beers in town and always treat the Guests like family. Three decades later these principles still thrive at Old Chicago. Our food is savored for its freshness and flavor, our lineup of 110 beers is famous for its variety and our Guests can always expect our warm, genuine hospitality. And like a landmark in the Chicago skyline, Old Chicago is here to stay. Trends come and go but quality endures. And that quality - in our hospitality, our food, our beer and our cocktails- is what Old Chicago is all about.
Family and Tradition. That says it all when describing Sweeties Caramel Creations. The chocolate and caramel recipes used by our grandmother are the foundation for our irresistible sweet treats. Our items are hand made the old fashioned way; one at a time with a loving touch. At Sweeties we do not "mass produce" nor do we "stock-pile" any of our products. To assure the freshness of our creations, it is Sweeties policy to make your sweet treats only after we receive your order.

USDA, Partners Gearing Up for Summer Meal Service
Last week, about 250 Ohio lawmakers, educators, nonprofit directors, community leaders and others came together at the Mid-Ohio Foodbank for the third annual statewide Summer Food Service Summit. The focus of this summit was USDA's Summer Food Service Program, as efforts are ramping up to ensure that all eligible children have access to healthy meals this summer.
In Ohio, over 630,000 children receive free or reduced-price school meals (based on family income) through the National School Lunch Program during the school year. Yet, only about 60,000—less than one in ten–participate in the Summer Food Service Program. This means that well over half a million children across the state may be at risk of food insecurity or hunger during the summer months, when they no longer have access to meals at school.

By COREY BLUEMELStaff writer
Mark Mesch of SRA International, a government contracting company, addressed the Emery County Public Lands Council concerning a new campaign called FAST. FAST is for fix a shaft today. The purpose of this partnership initiative is to eradicate unsafe abandoned mine land features as quickly as possible without the delays normally associated with actions taken on public and private lands. Nearly 30 people die each year in accidents involving mine land features, most of those are on public and private lands in the southwest United States.
A very dangerous sink hole, about 30 feet in diameter and at least 25 feet deep was discovered on the San Rafael very recently, in the past week. It was determined to be an old mine shaft which water had gotten into and now has caved in creating a hazard ous hole to the surface. A group of off highway vehicle riders found the hole and notified the Bureau of Land Management, who controls most of the land in the San Rafael.
Mesch explained there are Utah state and BLM entities which deal with mine reclamation issues. These groups deal with large mine sites or large numbers of mines. For the occasional mine feature that pops up, these groups are not prepared to handle the dangerous situation in a timely manner. The BLM learned of the FAST program and its effectiveness in other states, such as Nevada. They have modeled their program after that successful one. It is their goal to make a FAST program a working program in every state in the western United States and is the reason they have contracted with Mesch's company to get the information out to the public.
The FAST initiative aims to create a simple approach for public land users to report safety hazards and identify hazards posing risks to recreational users. It will attempt to make public and surrounding private lands safe for responsible users by eliminating abandoned mine shafts and other features.
As for the recently discovered open mine shaft on the San Rafael, the BLM has fenced the area to prevent anyone from getting close. Until the time when the hole can be filled in, the FAST initiative will be instituted and the proper partners will work together to remedy the problem. This issue will help all partners work through the process and work out the kinks.
"We are in the process of figuring out funding so no one person or agency is saddled with the total cost of taking care of these pop-up problems," said Mesch. "This is a great opportunity to provide solutions to solve the problems with mine features, not only in Emery County, but in the State of Utah as well. In Utah this process is just beginning and it is working well in Nevada."
Ray Petersen, Emery County Public Lands Administrator informed the lands council this newly discovered, dangerous mine shaft is not an isolated occurrence in the San Rafael. "This is not the only one," he said. "It would be a nasty place to end up on a motorcycle or 4-wheeler. Emery County has already been participating by filling in some hazards with the BLMs permission and approval."
Several goals of the FAST program are: to develop partnerships which result in the donation of time, labor and use related to mining equipment to aid in closing dangerous mine shafts and structures; to encourage knowledge sharing and technology transfer among government and stakeholder groups; and to solicit technical volunteers from wildlife agencies, academia, bat enthusiasts, and amateur archaeologists to assist with NEPA clearances. By attaining these goals, the process to remedy a dangerous situation will go more smoothly and very quickly, thus possibly saving lives.
Mesch concluded by stating, "We are going to address isolated mine features that pop-up, those that can be addressed quickly. We need OHV users, geocachers, and other area users to participate in this also. They are the eyes in the field. If a user discovers a mine feature, they should take a picture and a GPS reading if possible, and notify the regional office of the BLM as soon as possible."
Emery County Commissioner Gary Kofford asked Mesch if Emery County's participation in this program will encumber Emery County with future responsibility of the sites dealt with. Mesch assured Commissioner Kofford that is would not make Emery County liable for any of the rehabilitated sites. Commissioner Kofford stated he would support this initiative if: 1) the work would be done by private industry first; 2) no future liability would be placed on Emery County; and 3) the county would be reimbursed for any work they may be required to do.
The public lands council approved unanimously to support this initiative on the same conditions outlined by Commissioner Kofford. They will make that recommendation at the next regularly scheduled commission meeting.

I just don't get it
"I own four pairs of Taryn Rose shoes now. I love the comfort but I have found the same problem with all the shoes. The soles are terrible!!! For shoes that cost this much I expect a bit more in regards to workmanship. They have great comfort but the sole of every pair I own leaves room for improvement. For comfrot I would have to give this shoe and all others I own by this designer a solid five stars but with the soles leaving a lot to be desired I would say a three star is he best I can do. Has anyone else noticed this issue on Taryn Rose shoes???"

1995 Survey of Consumer Finances
Previous year SCF releases:
Four types of technical documentation for the 1995 SCF are available on this page: the 1995 codebook, a questionnaire-style summary of the survey instrument, the household enumeration folder (HEF), an executable copy of the computer-assisted personal interviewing (CAPI) program. In addition, technical working papers on the survey methodology are available.Codebook for the 1995 Survey of Consumer Finances
The codebook contains the text, variable names, and responses for the questions asked in the survey. Also provided are a brief summary of the technical features of the survey design, a copy of the source code for the CAPI program, a concordance of variable names in the final data set and those used in the CAPI program, and a list of the variables included in the public data set.
Codebook ()
Last updated 9/4/2014
Questionnaire-Style Summary of the 1995 SCF CAPI Instrument
This document is based on the questionnaire for the 1992 SCF, the last of the surveys for which a paper questionnaire was used. The questionnaire has been altered to include changes to the instrument since 1992, and each variable in the final data set has been labeled with its corresponding SCF X-variable number. In most cases, the question skip instructions have not been updated. Other relatively small inconsistencies with the actual CAPI instrument also remain. The codebook is the appropriate place to turn for the fine details of the structure of the data, the exact text of the questions asked, and the full list of official codes. Nevertheless, the questionnaire format of this document may be useful for understanding the overall organization of the survey. At key points during the administration of the interview, interviewers show the respondents a series of cards containing information relevant to framing or answering a question. Most of this information is displayed as part of the question text or response categories, but some is more general.

The 1995 survey data were collected using CAPI. A copy of the source code for the program is included in the codebook above. To see more directly the process faced by survey interviewers, use the executable version of the CAPI program posted below. The main program files are stored in a self-extracting zip file. A short README file describes the installation and running of the program on a DOS or Windows system.

Texas Gov. Rick Perry endorsed likely GOP presidential nominee Mitt Romney Wednesday after campaign aides to Newt Gingrich, whom he endorsed earlier, confirmed he plans to end his bid next week.
Perry, who also ran for the nomination but ended his campaign in January, said in a statement, "Mitt Romney has earned the Republican presidential nomination through hard work, a strong organization, and a disciplined message of restoring America after nearly four years of failed, job-killing policies from President Obama and his administration.
"...Mitt's vision and record of private-sector success will put America back on the path of job creation, economic opportunity and limited government."
Perry endorsed Gingrich after he ended his own presidential bid just days before the South Carolina primary. At the time, he said Gingrich was a "conservative visionary who can transform the future of our country." The former House speaker won South Carolina but his campaign largely faltered after that. He won just one additional primary, his home state of Georgia, and his campaign announced Wednesday that he would suspend his candidacy as early as next week.

Bills' Kouandjio provides early rallying cry
by Joe Buscaglia
posted May 14 2014 9:17AM
It's not often that you see any person in any profession provide a rallying cry in one of their first days on the job -- let alone a rookie on an NFL team that will be in a battle to become the team's starting right tackle. However, Buffalo Bills second round pick and former Alabama offensive tackle Cyrus Kouandjio provided a memorable quote in his first face-to-face meeting with the local media.
Kouandjio comes from the Alabama Crimson Tide, who have had one of the most successful college football programs over the past several years, and even before that the prestigious DeMatha Catholic High School in Maryland. Coming from those powerhouse programs, the offensive tackle will be going to a professional team that has averaged more losses in a single season over the past 14 years than Kouandjio has seen in his lifetime.
That's why his call to action so young in his career is a stark one:
"Personally, I don't know why we haven't been a winning team, but I'm a winner. That's what I do. So I come here with the intention to win games, no matter what. I don't care, I want to win and I'm going to do what I have to do to win. Whether it's motivate whoever or whatever, if I see anything not right or see something missing in a team or characteristics missing of a winning team… I've been with two winning programs, I lost about seven games in my life. I know what a winning program looks like and I know the trends and I've seen trends in a winning program. If I see something a little bit off, I will say something. I have high hopes for this team. I believe in this team and I believe in these men. I see nothing but winners around me. I came here, I saw the attitude on the team and these guys, and I loved it. Everybody is willing to win and everybody is willing to have good plays and to work from what I've seen so far in one day. We'll see."
- Cyrus Kouandjio
If Kouandjio's game throughout the season is anywhere close to the passion he exuded in his first visit to One Bills Drive, Buffalo could have a good one on their hands. However, he is a rookie (a big one at that) that will be competing for a starting job to protect one of the edges for quarterback EJ Manuel.
Judging based off his strong approach, however, the 20-year old will fit right into the type of culture head coach Doug Marrone is trying to establish in Buffalo.

Some of my personal favorites over at Hungry Happenings...
1) Slumber Party Snacks 2) Starfish S'mores
3) Carrot Crescents 4) Chicken & Chips Butterfly
Isn't it nice to dig into a plate of visually appealing food? As an adult, I look for food that looks fresh and vibrant in color, or perhaps warm and inviting. Our kids are bombarded with so much exciting visual stimuli these days that it's hard to get their lunch or dinner to live up to the colorful world they live in. Over at Hungry Happenings, I develop themed cuisine primarily for holidays and special occasions, but who says lunch on Saturday afternoon can't be a special occasion?
Ingredients: (makes 2)
- 1 tube Pillsbury Crescent Creations Dough Sheet (or crescent rolls with the seams pressed together)
- 1 bun size (long) hot dog cut in half
- 4 chow mein noodles or potato sticks
- food coloring marker
Special equipment:
- parchment paper or Silpat liner
- 4" heart shaped cookie cutter
- optional: mini cookie cutters (round, oval, heart, star)
Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a Silpat liner
Unroll crescent dough and cut in half widthwise. Lay one piece down on a cutting board.
Set cut hot dog at one end. Roll dough around hot dog. Cut off just enough dough to cover the hot dog. Pinch seams of dough together, removing any excess if needed. Roll into a nice smooth log.
Use heart shaped cookie cutter to cut two hearts out of the dough. Cut off tips of each of the hearts. Set hearts together on a parchment lined baking sheet. Use small cookie cutters to cut designs out of the hearts (butterfly wings.)
Set crescent dough wrapped hot dog in the center of the wings. Use a food coloring marker to draw on a face. Note: if you don't have a food coloring marker, you can wait until the butterflies are out of the oven and use ketchup or mustard to create a face. You could also use black sesame seeds for eyes and skip the mouth.
Bake for 12-14 minutes until golden brown. Press two chow mein noodles or potato sticks into the top of the butterfly's head to create antenna. Serve hot.

Did You Know? Countdown to Chanukah (11/21)
Did You Know?
Facts, Figures &
Folklore about Chanukah
the Jewish Festival of Lights
Nov 21 : 10 days till Chanukah
Did you know that Chanukah is referred to as the Festival of Lights?
Chanukah begins four days before the new moon, which is the darkest night of the month. Kislev, the month in which Chanukah takes place, is also close to the winter solstice, which is the longest — and darkest — month of the year.
The only ritual associated with Chanukah is lighting the candles on the chanukiah (menorah). Like many other faiths, the Jewish holiday of Chanukah brings light into the darkest time of the year.
Chanukah, the Jewish Festival of Lights, is a celebration of the victory of the Maccabees and the rededication of the Jerusalem Temple. It also commemorates the miracle of the oil that burned for 8 days. Jewish people mark this eight-day holiday by lighting the menorah, an eight-branched candelabra, and eating foods fried in oil such as potato latkes and jelly donuts. Join us for a new Did You Know? each day as we count down to Chanukah.
Chanukah, Hanukkah, Hanaka — no matter how you spell it — the fun begins at sundown on Wednesday December 01st.

Architects are licensed professionals trained in the art and science of the design and construction of buildings and structures that primarily provide shelter. Additionally, architects may be involved with designing the total built environment—from how a building integrates with its surrounding landscape to architectural or construction details that involve the interior of the building to designing and creating furniture to be used in a specific space.
An architect will create the overall aesthetic and look of buildings and structures, but the design of a building involves far more than its appearance. Buildings also must be functional, safe, and economical and must suit the specific needs of the people who use them. Most importantly, they must be built with the public's health, safety and welfare in mind.
Thinking about becoming an architect? It's important to remember that there are many aspects involved with this job. Their responsibilities require specific skills—designing, engineering, managing, supervising, and communicating with clients and builders. Architects spend a great deal of time explaining their ideas to clients, construction contractors, and others. Successful architects must have a thorough knowledge of the construct of a building, and be able to design and communicate their unique vision effectively.
The BasicsArchitects must be licensed before they can practice as an architect or call themselves an architect. There are three main steps in becoming an architect: education, experience, and examination.
The ProfessionAll states, the District of Columbia, Guam, Puerto Rico, and the U.S. Virgin Islands require individuals to be licensed (registered) before they may call themselves architects or contract to provide architectural services.
Destination: ArchitectDestination: Architect is a fast-paced video series that maps out key licensure requirements and highlights what you need to know before getting started. Learn the "rules of the road," so you can chart a course that will get you to your destination of becoming an architect.
Licensure MattersBeing licensed matters—especially for the people who live, work, and play in the buildings that architects create. Architects have a unique and influential role in our communities—with a license, you can play a part in shaping the future of our built world.
Careers in ArchitectureResources for finding a career in architecture.
What It's Like to Work in ArchitectureThe road to becoming an licensed architect can be a long and winding one. Read stories from architects about their path to licensure.
Related OrganizationsNCARB is one of five collateral organizations that play an important role in the profession. Each organization represents different groups responsible for the education, training, registration, and practice of architects.
The road to becoming an architect is less complicated than you think. Here are the basics to help you jumpstart your career.

This huge strain of the giant Elephant Ears is grown from a wild collected seed from Kanchanaburi Province, Thailand, in 2003 by former PDN Research Manager Petra Schmidt. In the wild, the plants reached a massive 9' tall, which is much larger than the clone of C Gigantea that we used to grow. Each leaf grows in excess of 5'L x 4'W. Each seedling will differ slightly, but massive plants will be the result.
This item cannot ship to AK, HI, PR, VI or Guam for hardiness zone restrictions.
In foliage, the leaves are an attractive glaucous-grey which is typical of this species. From an early age, the plants are adorned with clusters of dramatically large, pleasantly scented, white flowers. With generous water and feeding, the leaves get as big as small kiddie swimming pools by late summer time. The plant even blooms, producing large, peace lily-like white flowers throughout the season.
As with all elephant ears, "Thailand Giant Strain" is easy to grow. This giant Elephant Ear is easily over-wintered in a sunny window in the house, or can be put in a semi-dormant state in a basement, or in a garage in the South. Be careful not to over water it. You will need to remove most of the foliage to make it manageable. If it is in the ground, pot it up a few weeks before moving it inside to give it time to adjust. Plus growing it in a container keeps the size down. In the ground or a large container, 'Thailand Giant Strain cannot be ignored.PLANT DETAILS:

There's no risk when you purchase a Spring Hill Nurseries product. Your complete satisfaction is our greatest desire. Spring Hill wants to spare you any worries, and offers its own replacement promise, beyond Evine's returns and adjustment policy. All of our perennial plants are guaranteed for one full year, and all of our annuals for 90 days, from the date on which you receive your order. If you have any gardening questions about Spring Hill products please contact Spring Hill directly at (812) 260-2125 or email us at firstname.lastname@example.com.
For all other questions or if for any reason you're not fully satisfied with your purchase when it arrives, after planting, or at any time within the replacement warranty period, just phone Evine customer service at 1-800-676-5523 who will facilitate any necessary replacements or exchanges with Spring Hill. Replacements and exchanges will be made with the same item or a comparable item (if the same item is no longer available). No questions and no quibbling.
1) Do not remove the paper sleeve that forms the pot that the plant is grown in. The paper pot will degrade on its own after planting.
2) Place the plant in its sleeve directly into the planting hole, with the top of the soil line of the root ball level with the soil surface.
3) Refill with soil mixture. Firm the soil around the plant with your fingers.
4) Water thoroughly. If natural rainfall is less than 1" per week, additional watering is recommended. Be careful not to over-water.
Apply plant food at a rate of 5 lbs per 100 sq. ft. of garden. It is also for use on seeded plantings. After the seeds have emerged, broadcast our general purpose over the desired area at above rate and incorporate into the soil.
Apply a 2-4" layer of shredded bark, compost or other organic mulch around your plants to promote moisture retention, maintain even soil temperatures, and to discourage weed growth.
Keep the area around your plants free of weeds. Weeds compete with all plants for food, water and light. Walk around the garden periodically and pull weeds, including the roots as soon as you see them. Mulch also assists in keeping weeds down.
Improves the size, quality, and color of blooms and maintains a healthy, happy plant for many years. Remove spent blossoms or leaves to promote additional blooming or growth. Pinch or cut-off the blooms when they have faded, but leave as much foliage as possible. Keep the center of any bush open for air circulation by pruning off inner branches and any that are damaged or unsightly.
Add 1 tablespoon to soil in hole and mix thoroughly before planting the transplant. Scratch fertilizer at above rate into surface once they start flowering/fruiting. For existing garden, broadcast around existing plants and incorporate into soil at the above rate. Apply at the beginning of growing season and again when plants start to bear vegetables.
Hardy in zones 8B or higher. Must be dug and stored in other zones. If grown in a container move indoors to an unheated garage and water sparingly over the winter.

Finally, A Paste That Holds Texturized Spikey Pixie Hair!I have naturally curly hair that I wanted to get cut into a pixie with spikes. After four tries, my hairstylist finally got my hair short enough to hold a spike. I tried gels, waxes, and other texturizing pastes, but they were all too heavy and made my hair droop. Finally I tried BedHead's Hard to Get.
It was incredible. The paste is a little difficult to get out of the container, but once I did I rubbed it between my fingers and palms then ran it through my hair. The incredible part is that the more I used and pinched my hair between my fingers, the more piecey my hair became. Now I love my hairstyle. Hard to Get is my new HG.Dec 6, 2011Candace / OhioHAIR TYPEDry Hair / Curly Hair / Color Treated Hair / Fine or Thin Hair

It Definitely Earns Its Name!I was told that this was one of the hardest products to find, due to its popularity and I can see why! I've tried the Bedhead Mastermind wax, and I found it too heavy and has an "oily" feeling on my hair, I wasn't able to style my hair without it falling back down in seconds. However this isn't the case with the Hard To Get. It's very light and doesn't have that oily feeling, and it still gets my hair up without using too much(I have short - medium hair length.) What's good about this is that I don't feel it in my hair once I use it, unlike using something like the Mastermind wax. Only negative thing is the fact they give you such a small amount for the price.Dec 30, 2009Danny Ocen

The Emery County Aquatics Center is in the process of training lifeguards so the pool can open on Dec. 9. From Dec. 9-13 will be free swimming. On Dec. 1 at 2 p.m. will be a ribbon cutting ceremony and the pool will host an open house from 2-8 p.m. on Dec. 1. There will be no swimming that day, pool officials want everyone to come and just look around so they can see the new facility for themselves.
Also during the open house and the free swim days there will be an early bird discount on the sale of season passes. These early bird passes will offer a discount off the yearly pass. The swim pass is good for 365 days from the time of purchase.
The pool is also available for private parties. The indoor pool and the outdoor pool will be available to rent for private parties during certain times. But, the majority of the time the pool will be open for open swim. It will be a real advantage to hold a season pass.
The season pass holder will be able to use their passes for open swim, exercise classes and lap swimming. The season pass will not be used for swimming lessons.
The passes will have a picture identification and they will be scanned when you come to the pool. Everyone must pay to enter the pool, if you just want to watch your children swim, you can do that from the lobby area, but to enter the pool you must pay and enter the pool through the dressing rooms only.
There is a door to the lobby from the pool area, but pool officials want everyone to understand this door is not for their use and only for the lifeguards and in the event of an emergency. The pool will accept debit cards, cash, checks and credit cards for admittance to the pool and for any party reservations.
Pool officials want to invite everyone to the ribbon cutting. The pool architect, pool committee, mayors, commissioners and all others involved with making the pool a reality are encouraged to attend as well as the public.
Pool officials said, "This pool is the latest and greatest. There is no chlorine smell at the pool. The pool uses the very latest in architectural design, and the mechanical systems are state of the art. The entire pool water is turned over every four hours. The latest in ultraviolet equipment is in use and has the very latest cryptosporidium control features. It's just amazing, it's complicated and fully automated. There is a chlorine injection system. It is all calibrated and precise, there's no guessing how much chlorine is needed it's all time released with exact and precise measurements. We are very excited about the pool, it will be a fantastic addition to our community.
"One point we really need to stress is the care of young swimmers. They will have to be double diapered. You must shower the young swimmer 4 years of age and younger and then they must have a swim diaper which we will have available for purchase or you can bring your own. Then they need a plastic diaper over that. We have to really monitor the pool for cryptosporidium. Last year all the pools in Salt Lake wouldn't allow children under 6 in the pool.
"It's a matter of health. We have the latest equipment, so we don't see any problems with crypto at our pool. Parents also need to remember that we have a family dressing room, no longer can Moms bring young boys into the ladies dressing room. They must use the family dressing room.
"We will also have vending machines at the pool offering a variety of drinks, food and ice cream. We are in the process now of training our lifeguards. We have a number of very good life guards who are very good swimmers. We will continue to train them and it will be an ongoing process. You can sign up for swimming lessons which will start in January.
"Our hours for now will be 6 a.m.-8 p.m. Monday -Friday and 9 a.m.-6 p.m. on Saturdays and the pool will be closed Sundays. These are our holiday hours and the hours will be expanded after the first of the year. The pool is available for birthday parties, company parties, family reunions, whatever you have planned, but we need everyone to know there is no smoking, drinking or drugs allowed on the premises. Children under 10 need a guardian 14 years old or older for supervision. Swimmers 10 and over are OK on their own. If a swimmer is under the age of 6 they will need their guardian in the water with them. The rules of the pool will help keep everyone safe while swimming and ensure that everyone can use the pool and have a good time.
"The pool will become a community gathering place and we'll have a lot of good times there. This has really been a community project with many people working together to make the pool a reality," said pool management.
