It was the embattled agriculture minister himself who boasted about the awesome scale of those costs last week, in a coolly received speech to the annual general meeting of the National Farmers Union.
The Government had committed pounds 3.3bn on BSE-related expenditure, "equivalent to 2p on income tax", he said. The figure includes money spent over the past 11 months of full-blown crisis, and money which will be spent over the next three years.
But Mr Hogg did not mention several other, equally charged figures - the 15 deaths so far put down to new variant Creutzfeldt-Jakob Disease (CJD), the cruel and lethal brain affliction that the Government's scientific advisers ascribe to eating BSE-contaminated beef.
No one has kept count of how many farms and abattoirs have been bankrupted. There is no precise figure for farm suicides related to the BSE crisis, although coroners have been hearing that the uncertainty and hardship engendered drove several already struggling cattle farmers to kill themselves.
And there are other, much vaguer but perhaps even larger, costs. Historians may one day mark the summer of 1996, with the beef crisis and the ill- tempered Florence summit, as the time when Britain's relations with the EU soured decisively.
And what of the cattle themselves? Old dairy cows used to be slaughtered to make low-grade beef products, like burgers and pies. Now more than one million of them have been turned into great piles of dust under the "Over Thirty Month Scheme". Rendered-down meat and bone meal, and great vats of molten fat or tallow are stored in warehouses around the country.
These materials can't be dumped in landfill sites because they contain tiny quantities of prion protein, the mysterious, extraordinarily robust molecule that has caused the epidemic. The Government is still trying to work out how to burn the stuff.
Some 500,000 baby male calves, just a few days old, have also been slaughtered because the European Union ban on British beef exports wiped out the market for them. They used to be exported to the Continent, to be confined in veal crates for a short life before slaughter, a practice that led to mass protests at places like Brightlingsea. Now they are slaughtered even younger and farmers are compensated for each purposeless death.
At the moment, the best guess must be that we are at the beginning of the end of the crisis. Hopefully, the number of new variant CJD cases will run into a few dozen a year at most, rather than hundreds or thousands. But this is still only a hope, not a likelihood, and no scientist who knows what she or he is talking about would dream of making a precise estimate.
British farming and British meat have clearly survived the European ban and the damage to public confidence in pretty good shape, thanks to huge dollops of taxpayer subsidy. As Mr Hogg told farmers last week, prices in livestock markets have largely recovered and household consumption of the best beef cuts is now almost back at its pre-crisis levels.
With the Government belatedly implementing the selective cull of cattle, the only unfulfilled promise from the Florence EU summit, the conditions are theoretically in place for the rest of Europe to lift the export ban. But this won't happen for months if not years, because continental politicians know their voters would never stand for it.
But at least Britain is belatedly completing its part of the Florence bargain. This cull will kill a further 100,000 or so cattle, in addition to the 1.2 million slaughtered under the Over Thirty Month Scheme. Ministry of Agriculture vets are now scouring Britain's farms, selecting older surviving cattle that once belonged to herds where other animals came down with BSE.
These are, essentially, confidence-building moves. They will kill a few older cattle that would have come down with BSE but will do very little, if anything, to protect human health because there is already a ban on meat from cattle over 30 months old going into the human food chain.
With the clarity of hindsight, we can all see that again and again government did too little, too late over the last 10 years - and six agriculture ministers - since Ministry scientists first diagnosed the new disease in cattle. It gave too much weight to the immediate worries of farmers and the food industry; and it downplayed fears, so as not to scare consumers. If only they had publicised their worries, some people who have since contracted new variant CJD from eating infected meat might have avoided doing so and be alive today.
Perhaps its biggest failure, in a time of deregulation and declining state intervention, was not to enforce the successive regulations it decreed to stop BSE-contaminated products being eaten by humans and cattle. This is the view of Professor John Pattison, Dean of University College, London Medical School and chairman of the Government's leading advisory committee on BSE. "The principles of what we did have been correct. The enforcement left something to be desired."
But even if everything that the scientists advising the Government had recommended had been implemented ruthlessly, there might well have been some new variant CJD deaths in humans. It may well be that the fatal doses of prion protein were taken in by humans nearly 10 years ago, during the earliest period of the BSE epidemic in cattle.
Of course it could have been avoided if the original sin of feeding ground- up cattle and sheep remains to cattle had never been allowed; these days, it is banned for cows and all other animals. But the practice dates back decades and was never questioned by a public who, by and large, did not want to know the grisly details of how they got their mass-produced food. It was a practice which happened in several other countries as well as Britain. The mystery, still unsolved, is why it led to such a large epidemic only here.
Mr Hogg is fair game and Labour's decision to gun for him on Monday is understandable, reasonable, realistic. Of course it's nothing personal; the man himself is a mere cypher for the Government's overall failure in tackling the crisis - the long, slow build-up to the announcement of the CJD link last March and the hurricane that has blown ever since. He is inclined to bumptiousness in public, and it was unwise of him to refuse to attend the European Parliament's inquiry into the crisis. But his real offence is to have been the Government's front man when things went really wrong.
Labour, however, ought to pray that it is never challenged by a crisis which is so far-reaching, challenging and as bewilderingly complex as BSE. Frankly, any government would be found wanting.

A major national pollster, which was typically very favorable to Donald Trump during the GOP primary season, the same pollster that on May 11 had Hillary Clinton with only a one-point lead (41-40 percent), now shows the bloviating billionaire and reality TV actor crashing to his lowest level yet.
The new Reuters/Ipsos poll released on Friday shows scandal-plagued Hillary Clinton defeating Donald Trump by a whopping 14-point margin, 47 percent to just 33 percent, while 20 percent said that they wouldn't support either of the highly unpopular candidates, two candidates who have the highest unfavorability ratings in the history of polling.
Trump's free-fall, along with his unstable mental status and fluctuating policies, has united both establishment Republicans as well as some principled Tea Party constitutionalists. Both feel that the liberal New York real estate tycoon will irreparably harm to both the Republican Party and the nation.
Two major groups, Free the Delegates, and Delegates Unbound, contend that delegates are unbound and are free to vote their conscience. They are encouraging delegates to exercise that right and responsibility to dump Trump at the upcoming Republican Party Convention in July.
A 14-point deficit in a poll that has a three-percent margin of error is a massive gap to close in any election. It shows just how weak a candidate Donald Trump is when you consider he's running against the worse Democrat candidate to come along in a generation, one that should be easy to defeat.

When Mehjabeen Akhtar (26) thought of learning skiing in 2000, she faced the first resistance at her doorstep. Elder brother, Hilal Ahmed, didn't want her to go out in track pants. But, later, Mehjabeen's achievements inspired her brother to do a basic course in skiing in 2008.
Over the years, Mehjabeen has been instrumental in motivating scores of Muslim girls in the Valley to pursue the sport competitively. Being an instructor at the Jawahar Institute of Mountaineering and Winter Sports — and a good one at that — she has already created a buzz about the sport even among conservative families.
Today, more than 100 women come regularly to the institute and many of them have made their presence felt at the national and international arena.
"There was a time when you could hardly spot a girl on the ski slopes, but today a number of them have taken to the sport. During last week's Gondola Cup and Global Derby in Srinagar, there were 30 female participants," said Mehjabeen, who hails from Chi Chi Lora village, 25km from Srinagar.
Her passion for the sport even pushed marriage to the backseat. "As soon as girls in our village turn 18, they are married off. So, you can judge for yourself how much pressure I must have faced. But, now, my skiing achievements are the only thing my parents are worried about," she said.
Mehjabeen became the first woman skier from the Valley to don India colours when she participated in the FIS Races in Turkey in 2007. After she made it to the national squad, three more have earned national colours.
"Last year, the four-member team for the Asian Winter Games in Kazakhstan had two women — Masoda Akhtar and me — from Kashmir," said Mehjabeen, who will receive the highest state honour, the Sher-e-Kashmir Award, this year.
Seventeen-year-old Hanya Zahra is a new star in the making. She was part of the Dream International Programme in Korea in 2009.
"Skiing is a passion for us now and I want to carve a future out of this," said Hanya. "Being a costly sport, you cannot pursue it without family support," added the Class 12 student.

Our motto at The Sunset is easy to get to, hard to leave.
Whether arriving from San Jose International Airport (approx. 4 hours) or Juan Santamaria International in Liberia (Approx. 2 hours). Simply head for the town of Canas on the Interamerican highway, In Canas head east until you reach the town of Tilaran, there you will make a hard left before ( it kind of appears as if your doubling back) the first stop sign. Bear left at the first crossroads, right at the next. Within 30-40 minutes you come across the left side entrance to The Eco-lodge hotel and Lake Cote(r). Head due North up this maintained stone road approx.1 1/2 miles and The Sunset will be on your right. Although this may initially sound a very basic set of directions, once in Costa Rica you will find there are only a few main roads to travel upon. Once you confirm your rental dates, the information packet you receive via e-mail will contain more detailed step by step directions with photos.
If you were looking at a map of Costa Rica, you would see Lake Arenal near the Northern center, from there look to the Northeast and you see Lake Coter we are exactly between the two Lakes. A really great place to be.

We have been eating here for several years now and absolutely love their food. My favorite is the Korean pork tacos but all the dishes there are very flavorful! The fact that it is right next to The Lot is a definite plus.
We stopped in by chance. Oh yea, Everything was very good ! The fish tacos and the pork tacos are to over the top. This place is a must try for great sandwiches.
Best in town. Two healthy portioned tacos and an awesome rice and beans side. Just the right amount of food, took them five minutes to make, and the cook and I rocked out to "Unchained Melody"
Found by accident. Chose sticky chicken and the lot environment with local beers was outstanding. Other trucks there looked good also and will definitely come by again to sample the others as well.
I'm all about the Reuben sandwich with fries and my lady LOVED the sticky chicken. Can't go wrong here, they've got great food and a super fun atmosphere!
I am from Bend but haven't lived there in fifteen years so it is always fun to check out what new has popped up when home visiting family. This summer, Real Food Street Bistro was the best new spot we tried, hands down! The three of us ordered the Korean pork tacos, the fish tacos and the rueben and we...
One of the fun dining options we enjoyed on this trip was The Lot in Bend, OR. It's a great place to listen to music, bring a dog, hang-out with friends or feed the kids! Others in my group tried the Thai food truck, waited 20 minutes, then threw theirs away to get the food I got at Real Food...
It had been a long time since I ate here and they didn't disappoint. I had the sticky chicken which has a chili sweet sauce and terrific spouts, carrots, and cucumber slaw. Delicious and filling. And only $9!
The menu is unique and has some very great options for anyone who is looking to chow down. However, they are so absolutely rude. There is a short man with curly hair and glasses, if you see him, run the other way.
Great fish tacos! That's all I have had there but they are some of the best ones I have had. Easy to order, good service...yummy food!

Your Letters
Re Luke L's letter (Your Letters, Friday), why is the very serious story of twins separated at birth who subsequently married (Parted-at-birth twins 'married') more suited to April Fools' Day? (Letters, Friday 11th January.) To anyone who was adopted and especially those who were "foundlings" and have absolutely no possibility of tracing their birth parents it is a very real issue. Please don't be so insensitive.

Why in this story Indian & Chinese Troops Co-operate does the picture show one soldier smashing bricks over another soldier's head with a sledge hammer? Is this the new meaning of co-operation for 2008 - should I go smash a few bricks over my manager's heads to foster co-operation there? Sounds good to me.
Pete W, Oban, UK
No, no, no, Lee from Manchester, one only uses "Yours sincerely" when the letter is addressed to a name: Dear Mr Smith, for example. In this case your letter should have finished "Yours faithfully". And this bad grammar being reproduced by the BBC? Shocking.

I'm getting this message "sound is not attached to any listener, will use virtual voice setting" when play events are triggered, via the wwise profiler in a debug build.
Using version 2016.2.0.5972 in Unreal.
The game works fine on all other machines, except this one pc. And only in a built version. Editor works fine. Only special thing about it might be that it has Oculus and Vive connected and related software installed. I've tried disconnecting those but no help. (We already have commented out section of the wwise-unreal plugin that will cause sound to be gone if you have an Oculus connected and reloads a level.) This game is not a VR project. I see that the plugin sets the listeners automatically based on connected players, but I've also tried to set it manually just in case. This did not help either.
Anyone know what this is?

The hedge fund TCI has asked the British Government to impose trade sanctions on Japan, escalating its ongoing dispute with Tokyo over the electricity wholesaler J-Power.
The Children's Investment Fund, run by Chris-topher Hohn, has been blocked by the Japanese Government from doubling its stake in the company to 20 per cent on national security grounds.
TCI, whose 9.9 per cent stake in J-Power makes it the biggest shareholder, has been pushing the company to boost investor returns and increase dividends.
In a letter addressed to John Hutton, the Business Secretary, Digby Jones, the Trade and Investment minister, and Malcolm Wicks, the Energy minister, TCI says: "We request that the UK Government formally intervene and impose reciprocal trade and investment sanctions."
The letter was singed by Mr Hohn, who is TCI's managing partner.
TCI has already complained to the European Commission over Japan's actions and on Monday, Peter Mandelson, the Trade commissioner, criticised Japan, accusing the country of having taken advantage of overseas investment opportunities for decades while remaining a "a closed market" to foreigners wanting to move in.
He also called on Japan to justify its move, under a law requiring any foreign investor to secure approval for stakes of more than 10 per cent in sectors such as electrical power deemed important for national security. The block on TCI is the first time that the law has been used.
Yesterday, a spokesman for the Department of Business Enterprise and Regulatory Reform said: "As a government we encourage the free flow of investment. We haven't had the chance to study the letter but we will consider it."
The UK is highly unlikely unilaterally to impose sanctions on Japan, as requested by TCI, but could make representations on TCI's behalf and seek to apply political pressure on Japan to change its mind.
Tokyo has voiced concerns that TCI's plans could hit investment in power generation and adversely effect electricity supplies. But on Wednesday J-Power announced the formation of an advisory board "to provide meaningful advice regarding management issues" and plans to review its corporate governance, including the role of "external directors" with a view to implementing any chan-ges next year.
The company also said it would begin using return on assets (ROA) as a key management indicator "to enhance transparency to shareholders".
TCI's intervention has nonetheless put the spotlight on Japan's treatment of foreign investors.
The country ranked bottom in a league table of the world's major economies as destinations for foreign direct investment between 1997 and 2006, according to the OECD. Inbound FDI makes up just 3 per cent of the Japanese economy compared with 20 per cent in the European Union.
TCI's recent scalps include a key role in the break-up of the Dutch Bank ABN Amro and blocking Deutche Börse's attempt to buy the London Stock Exchange, which led to its chief executive, Werner Seifert, being ousted. However, it is not without critics who argue its short-term approach can damage companies.

Newcastle will play their part in an historic European tie when they face the first Arab side to represent Israel in the UEFA Cup first round.
Newcastle will play their part in an historic European tie when they face the first Arab side to represent Israel in the UEFA Cup first round.
Football may be a religion on Tyneside but the Magpies will find spiritual beliefs taken rather more seriously by supporters of their opponents.
Hapoel Bnei Sakhnin come from a Palestinian town of 20,000 inhabitants in Nazareth, near the Sea of Galilee, an area which was once a hotbed of anti-Israeli protests.
They have a Jewish coach Eyal Lachman, an Arab captain, and a mixture of Arab, Jewish and overseas players but have struggled to make friends since being promoted to the Jewish-dominated Israeli first division.
After today's draw in Monaco, Newcastle chairman Freddy Shepherd made no secret of the fact that he would have preferred less problematic opponents. UEFA have cleared Bnei Sakhnin to play their home leg in Tel Aviv and no English side have gone to Israel since Chelsea lost 2-0 to Hapoel Tel Aviv in 2001 after six players refused to travel.
Shepherd said: "We have not got a choice in this, it's not the one we wanted but we have to make the best of it whether it's in Nazareth or Tel Aviv or Cyprus that we play. We are not going to whinge about it, there's no good moaning or groaning about it, let's get on and get it over with.
"Last season began as a disaster by not qualifying for the Champions League and then we profited by getting to the semi-finals of the UEFA Cup so if we do the same again I will be very happy.
"We didn't want to go to Tel Aviv, it's a fair distance to start with and the heat as well but it's no good moaning about it."
The Magpies will be at home in the first leg on Thursday, September 16 before heading for the National Stadium a fortnight later.
Manager Sir Bobby Robson said: "We know very little about them at this stage, and expect they know a great deal more about us due to the popularity of the Premiership on television around Europe.
"That said, we will scout them thoroughly, take no chances, and be fully prepared for the first leg next month."Reuse content

Portland cement is an ubiquitous construction material; almost every country on the planet has a structure made of Portland cement. Careful concrete consulting when planning a project can improve the lifespan of your concrete infrastructure. It is manufactured according to strict standards using limestone as the principal ingredient.
During the first stage of cement production, other materials may be mixed in to compliment the limestone. This ground blended limestone is treated in kilns at high temperatures to produce what is referred to in the industry as 'clinker'. The clinker is then ground with a suitable amount of gypsum to form Portland cement.
The U.S. classifies Portland cement based on the specific application; to date, there are five types of Portland cement: Type I, II, III, IV, and V.
Portland cement is popular because of its versatility. When water is added to Portland cement in the correct proportion, the mixture forms cement paste. Sand and water are added to a cement mixture to form mortar/grout. A mixture of cement, sand, rocks, and water is referred to as concrete.
At C3S, we focus on maximizing the lifespan of your project. Our knowledge of cementitious materials (Portland cement and mineral admixtures) is made available to our clients to enable them make the best choices for their respective projects. Our expertise allows us to determine which mixture will produce a strong and stable structure that will require minimal maintenance over the years.
Please contact C3S for concrete consulting with a civil engineer.

The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) is on an apparent pro-consumer streak. In October, it partnered with the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) in leveling charges against AT&T, when it accused the wireless provider of capriciously throttling unlimited data plans. It threatened Verizon with an investigation if it chose to do the same. Now, the agency is turning its attention towards the transgressive industry practice known as "cramming," in which charges from so-called premium apps are hidden in customers' bills.
The agency has already penalized AT&T for the practice, and now, according to a report by the Wall Street Journal, it's moving on to Sprint. Based on the report, a majority of FCC commissioners will vote in favor of fining Sprint $105 million for unauthorized charges on customers' cellphone bills.
Related: FCC to fight 'mystery fees' on phone bills
The fine, which will be set aside in part to refund illicitly billed customers, ties for the largest fine dispensed in the agency's crusade against carriers that surreptitiously bill customers for third-party services, including ring tones, text message alerts, and horoscopes. AT&T paid $105 million in October to settle identical claims. An FTC case filed against T-Mobile in July is still pending.
The nature of the services on paper is often unclear — AT&T grouped them under the euphemism "AT&T Monthly Subscriptions" — and many carriers don't notify customers of enrollment. Carriers receive a 30 to 40 percent cut of the profits, which can amount to hundreds of millions of dollars. As many as 20 million people a year are affected, FCC Chairman Tom Wheeler says. At the behest of state attorneys general, AT&T, T-Mobile, Sprint, and Verizon stopped billing customers for third-party services in November.
Related: Senate study says phone bill 'cramming' is costing us millions
An agency probe, coordinated with the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau and various State Attorneys General, found evidence of "willful violation" of FCC truth-in-billing rules, which require that companies clarify service billing on statements. In a three-month window from August to October 2013, it found that Sprint received almost 35,000 complaints about unwanted charges.
According to the Journal's sources, the agency will make its designs public in the coming weeks. It's unclear whether or not Sprint will follow in AT&T's footsteps and choose to settle before then.

I have been loving floral prints lately, so I decided to use this as inspiration for this mani. I love doing floral manis. I used Sinful Colors Pink Forever, Essence Sundancer, and different acrylic paints (pink, white and green). I loved wearing this look. It's so girly to me. Enjoy!!

Discussion in 'Games' started by Daaah, May 26, 2014.
Ready. Sitting at two commits so far, but my SEC schedule is going to make visits very interesting.
Bnutt i see why you warned me about switching school havent gotten a single xp point this season. Will i ever get then or is it just alot less? Just curious.
Holybuff and I are trying to play tonight.
The glitch is weird - you may start getting some partial XP next season if your OC/DC leave. Brutal glitch (if you weren't USC).
So who's left?
Holy and I, we're playing tonight
Brutal you were right so diff without the perks, but all good man. Love my team still.
CG rallies to beat Utes, coming back from 17 down @ Utah.
This game is way harder without xp points my qb is 98 accuracy and was throwing balls all over the place my d is soft serve :/
im not going to be able to make I will tonight. U can put me on auto and play cpu. No worries.
My QB is 99 and does the same at the beginning of games.
Holy I did the best that I could to keep it reasonable, but I played a perfect 1st half and led 49-0. Chewed clock and played conservative in 2nd half, 70-10 final.
Slider when can you play

A&M vs Clemson Game of the week!
Yes!! I got upgraded to level 2. Lol
BIG recruiting weekend for me on top of that. Think I've got 9-10 prospects I'm leading for visiting. If I can get 5 or 6 to commit my class will be right on track.
Also, what you doin losing to Wyoming? I wish we were using better rosters that are accurate.
Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
That kid is good. And I threw 3 pics. The level of comp in that dynasty is high
A humbling defeat of tini and a&m. In a pass happy league Clemson had 353 yards rushing on 39 attempts. 42-28 Clemson victory crushing tini's recruiting weekend (a warning to you other folks)
I also uploaded a highlight of my soul crushing TD with seconds left in the 1st half
Can't commit 3 turnovers and expect to win
And **** that play...retarded ass secondary players
Slider with the big win!! Right back in contention.. I wish we could watch user games.
Drew vs. OKC? I might have to sim you guys if no one steps up, and I'm losing the energy to hound guys down.
so, uh, I just finished playing a few games of this at my buddies place. I'm gonna be buying it. Is there any room in the dynasty?
There's two open spots..not sure if the XP glitch would apply
There is room, but as Tini said you would be afflicted by a glitch that limits the coach XP that you earn to either partial or zero points. It happens to anyone who joins or switches teams after the very first stage of the very first season.
EA is awesome. How in the world would that effect me?
Basically your coach levels up in dynasties when you win games. As you level up you gain perks like better recruiting and even in game increased player attributes. You wouldn't get these level ups as c easily or at all. Awful glitch.
If you wanted to start a 2 or 1 star dynasty from scratch I'd be down.
Holybuff, please contact Brak and play tonight. Drew, OKC is out of town and on auto, please play the CPU asap. I'd like to advance tonight.
will do. thanks
Did they fix it for newer dynasties? I wouldn't mind playing anyways, I guess.
Separate names with a comma.

Mercury Prize Nominations - Muso's Guide
Muso's Guide's Mitchell Stirling alerted us earlier this week to a fine list of Mercury Prize nomination suggestions from the recently relaunched music website, not to mention a few tips towards those who may unfortunately miss out.
Muso's Guide again highlights the much lauded exploits of the likes of Doves, Bat For Lashes and Florence And The Machine, however it is in their list of "others that could make it" that things really get interesting. Many previously unmentioned possibilities from both the mainstream and leftfield crop up including Lily Allen, whose April release It's Not Me, It's You gained praise in many quarters.
An album of strong tracks to back up chart-topping single Don't Upset The Rhythm could see Noisettes make the list, while the late in the day return from the Pet Shop Boys could see the Brit Awards Lifetime Achievement holders sneak through to join them.
Muso's Guide also points to strong albums from 21 year old Laura Groves, and her Blue Roses project, Fanfarlo's self-released Reservoir and novella and album combo Bob and Veronica Ride Again from electro-pop quintet Morton Valence.
Stirling also points the Mercury Prize judges' eyes towards the urban category, with Speech Therapy from recent BBC Introducing performer Speech Debelle toping his list.

Starting university in a new city or planning a budget break? That doesn't mean you have to cut out eating out. We've tracked down some of the UK's best cheap eats – no dodgy kebabs on the menu.
From London to Aberdeen, you can treat your taste buds for less than a tenner.
There are thousands of places to get a cheap meal in the capital, but if you're really watching the pennies, take a trip to Borough Market in Southwark. There are plenty of food stalls – from roasted goat to artisan Scotch Eggs – to get your teeth into, or you can fill up on the free samples from traders.
For a proper burger, head to a branch of Honest Burger. The chunky 35-day dry aged beef burgers are oozing with flavour and served with rosemary-salted chips. So much better than the latest 'gourmet junk food' joints.
Craving something comforting? You can't beat a cheese toastie, and Melt Room in Soho does them to perfection. OK, £4 sounds a lot for a classic cheese melt but EDAM they are good…
Once you've been to Mosque Kitchen – a renowned Indian buffet serving fuss-free food for less than £5 – check out Nile Valley Café round the corner. Fill up on Sudanese and Middle Eastern favourites including falafel and baba ganoush wraps, spicy tagines, and molokhia; a traditional green vegetable dish, like okra.
Yes, Los Cardos is a Mexican street food takeaway but it is so much more. For a start, they've got haggis burrito on the menu (named after writer Irvine Welsh, who says it's his guilty pleasure), various healthy options, and they do evening deliveries if joining the now-legendary queues sounds too much.
It might be housed in an old cinema, run events from vintage fairs to club nights, and have the hipster-tastic name of Hillhead Bookclub, but food is still central at this quirky café-bar. Boasting that no dish on the menu will set you back more than £10, tuck in to burgers, pies and classic pub food. A great place to start a great night out.
Craft beers, delicious vegan dishes and low prices make The 78 a treat for students and food lovers alike. Fill up on speciality falafels, coconut and bean chilli, or beer-battered onion rings "as big as tractor tyres". Who needs meat when you've got sofas, a real fire and time to relax?
The Foodstory Café is helping change attitudes towards healthy eating in Aberdeen. There's plenty of organic, locally sourced and veggie options on the menu, including superfood porridge, hotpot, and home-made soups, but the cakes – vegan brownie, anyone? – are worth the trip alone.

International rules football (Irish: Peil na rialacha idirnáisiunta; also known as inter rules in Australia and compromise rules in Ireland) is a team sport consisting of a hybrid of football codes, which was developed to facilitate international representative matches between Australian rules football players and Gaelic football players.
The first tour, known as the Australian Football World Tour, took place in 1967, with matches played in Ireland, the United Kingdom, and the United States. The following year, games were played between Australia and a touring County Meath Gaelic football team, Meath being the reigning All-Ireland senior football champions. Following intermittent international tests between Australia and Ireland, the International Rules Series between the senior Australian international rules football team and Ireland international rules football team has been played intermittently since 1984, and has generally been a closely matched contest. The sport has raised interest and exposure in developing markets for Gaelic and Australian football and has been considered a development tool by governing bodies of both codes, particularly by the AFL Commission.
International rules football does not have any dedicated clubs or leagues. It is currently played by men's, women's, and junior teams only in tournaments or Test matches.
The rules are designed to provide a compromise or combine between those of the two codes, with Gaelic football players being advantaged by the use of a round ball and a rectangular field measured about 160 yards long by 98 yards wide (Australian rules uses an oval ball and field), while the Australian rules football players benefit from the opportunity to tackle by grabbing between the shoulders and thighs and pulling to the ground, something banned in Gaelic football. The game also introduces the concept of the mark, from Australian rules football, with a free kick awarded for a ball caught from a kick of over 15 metres, where the kick must be in the forward direction if originating from a teammate.
A player must bounce, solo or touch the ball on the ground once every 10 metres or six steps. A maximum of two bounces per possession are allowed, while players can solo the ball as often as they wish on a possession. Unlike in Gaelic football, the ball may be lifted directly off the ground, without putting a foot underneath it first. Players however cannot scoop the ball off the ground to a team-mate, nor pick up the ball if they are on their knees or on the ground. If a foul is committed, a free kick will be awarded, referees (called umpires in Australian Rules) can give the fouled player advantage to play on at their discretion.
The game uses two large posts usually sets 6.5 metres apart, and connect 2.5 metres above the ground by a crossbar with goal net that could extend behind the goalposts and attached to the crossbar and lower goalposts, as in Gaelic football. A further 6.5 metres apart on either side of those and did not connected by a crossbar are 2 small post, known as behind post, as in Australian rules football.
Points are scored as follows:
Scores are written so as to clarify how many of each type of score were made as well as, like Australian football, giving the total points score for each team; for example, if a team scores one goal, four overs and 10 behinds, the score is written as 1-4-10 (28), meaning one goal (six points) plus 4 overs (4 × 3 = 12 points) plus 10 behinds (10 × 1 = 10 points), for a total score of 28 points.
An international rules match lasts for 72 minutes (divided into four quarters of 18 minutes each). Inter-county Gaelic football matches go on for 70 minutes, divided into two halves, and Australian rules matches consists of four 20 minutes quarters of game time, although with the addition of stoppage time, most quarters actually last between 25 and 30 minutes.
As in Gaelic football, teams consist of fifteen players, including a goalkeeper, whereas eighteen are used in Australian rules (with no keeper).
A number of rule changes were introduced before the 2006 International Rules Series:
While ladies' Gaelic football has been growing almost exponentially since the 1970s, Women's Australian rules football has far fewer players, though numbers have grown strongly since the 1990s. In early 2006, representatives of the Ladies' Gaelic Football Association and Women's Australian Football Leagues met at a Ladies' Gaelic football festival in Singapore, and agreed to compete in the hybrid version of the two football codes to coincide with the senior men's series. The 2006 Women's Series has been the only series to take place.
Among the first schoolboys' international tests was that played in Melbourne in 1983, when a Victorian under-17 team played Ireland. An interesting twist in these compromise matches is that the ball used was the oval shaped Australian football rather than the round ball.
An official junior series at Under-17 level has been played in alternate nations since the early 2000s. Ireland completed a hat-trick of series wins from 2003–2005 before Australia won the junior series for 2006. The junior series was largely instituted by both leagues as a means to identify emerging talent. It has since been abandoned.
Australian player of the series: Joel Selwood
Irish player of the series: Ray Cullivan
Irish player of the series: Kevin Nolan
Australian player of the series: Bryce Gibbs
The Australian Amateur Football Council has sent an amateur Under-23 All-Australian team to Ireland in both 2005 and 2008. The Australian amateur team wore a different jersey to the AFL representative side, dark green and gold, with a kangaroo emblem. Recently, the Victorian Amateur Football Association (VAFA) has sent a squad of players sourced from the top six divisions of its competition to tour Ireland and play various clubs and representative teams.
International rules also has a masters category with several competitions. There is also a Masters International Rules Series which follows the format of the senior men's series and involves many retired Australian Rules and Gaelic Football players.
International rules is played in various locations throughout North America and the Caribbean, Europe, Asia, and Australia and New Zealand between fledgling Australian rules football and Gaelic football clubs.
In 2006, an exhibition match between South African youth teams and an Indigenous Australian touring side composed of players from the Clontarf Foundation, led by Sydney's Adam Goodes, was held at Potchefstroom.
The University of Birmingham, UK, holds an annual International Rules match between its Australian Rules football team and its Gaelic Football team, with the 2013 edition won by the Australian Rules team 56–55, before a crowd of over 400 students.
In the International Rules Series, the most well-known International Rules event, Ireland currently leads Australia 10-9 in series wins, 21-17 in Tests won (with two draws) and 2,268 to 2,121 in total points scored. They also won the most recent event 56-52 in a one-off test at Croke Park in Dublin.

prescriptions for acute injury medications prior to formal claim approval. A
1955 statute previously restricted BWC from allowing this change, but recent
legislation proposed by BWC allowed for the newly approved first-fill rule to
rule details the circumstances under which BWC will pay pharmacies for the
first-fill of prescription drugs before BWC issues initial claim determination
orders. In cases where the first-fill rule is used, but the claim is ultimately
denied by BWC, the medication payment will be charged to BWC's surplus fund
account and not to the employer associated with the disallowed claim.
new rule is significant for injured workers in Ohio, especially those who do
not have health insurance or are otherwise unable to foot the bill while
awaiting claim approval," said BWC Administrator and Chief Executive
Officer Steve Buehrer. "All injured workers should have the same access to
immediate treatment, which in some cases is a matter of life and death. Other
states have made similar changes, and I'm pleased injured workers in Ohio will
now receive the same protection."
approved by the Joint Committee on Agency Rule Review, the rule is expected to
become effective Feb. 1, 2015.

A professional golfer of great distinction once confessed to Ernest Hemingway that he never putted so well as when afflicted by a dose of gonorrhoea. It was not a statement to charm country club America, or anywhere else which prided itself on the values of respectable home and hearth, but the golfer sipped his bourbon and water and insisted, "It concentrates the mind wonderfully." This is not to suggest that Wayne Rooney contracted anything more than a bad case of guilt and family crisis in his hugely publicised collisions with a prostitute but the golfer's point may be of some encouragement to England when Rooney steps out against Switzerland in Basle tonight.
What the golfer was saying, after all, was that if something is important enough to you, if, say, it is the talent which ultimately will always define your place in the world, it is possible for a little while at least to push aside all distractions, however painful.
If this is indeed true, it might also be right that for Rooney, with what has been described by people ostensibly close to him as a "personal nightmare" lasting some months out in the open, there may be a certain release of pressure when he goes out on the field.
This was certainly the case with such luminously gifted but otherwise troubled footballers as George Best and Paul Gascoigne. Off the field their lives were mostly in chaos; on it they became masterpieces of brilliant, intuitive thought and instinctive action.
Sir Bobby Charlton recalls encountering Best at morning training for which the Irishman arrived straight from his favourite watering hole after an all-night session. Best ran with wonderful urgency and when they brought out the ball he once again made it seem like his personal toy. Charlton shook his head and said to Best: "Tell me, what did you get up to last night?" There followed a familiar recital, pubs and clubs and discos and then a prodigious march to the dawn and beyond in the place he made a legend of his times, the Brown Bull in Salford. Charlton said: "George, maybe one day they will put you in a bottle in some laboratory at Manchester University."
For Best and Gascoigne, and maybe it will prove so for Rooney in Basle, the field of play was not so much a place of trial as of deliverance, where you didn't have to fret over right or wrong, if you ever truly did that before the bad deeds were done. It was somewhere to respond to that in your nature which gave you the most uncomplicated and least perilous joy.
One of the reasons Malcolm Allison, an English coach who would be lionised today for his brilliance and innovation and strength in dealing with players, worked with such passion at Manchester City from the mid-Sixties to the early Seventies was that he never believed he fulfilled himself on the field. But he knew what it meant to play, and especially the sense of release it provided from all the cares of an often problematic life.
When the playing was over he recalled: "The thing I remember most is the feeling that came to me when the referee started the game. I might be weighed down by debts, bookmakers might be looking for me, but as soon as we kicked off I thought, 'No one can touch me now. This is my island.' Once I got kicked in the chest at Sheffield Wednesday and I couldn't get any breath and I thought, 'This is it, I'm dying.' One thought came to my head, 'I've got £200 in my pocket in the dressing room – £200 unspent."
The money may have changed – Rooney is reported to have given a hotel porter £200 for a pack of cigarettes on a night he also handed a hooker £1,200 – but some things are maybe the same. Rooney may get the same release known to Best and Gascoigne when the action starts tonight. He may be reminded that there is in one part of his life a place where the sneers and the derision, the taunts of "Shrek" and "Old Slappers", can be stopped dead.
Some still say that classifying Rooney's talent as great is wrong. They cannot have been watching. Yes, he showed nothing of the best of himself in the World Cup in South Africa, and perhaps for a reason we know better today, but the extent of his failure was in direct proportion to the expectations he had created. Down the years he has done this with a vision and a touch and a conviction that have regularly promised a total eclipse of all domestic rivals – and a serious challenge to the best in the world.
On Friday night against Bulgaria, before the storm broke, there were at least some old indicators of such a promise, passes of marvellous control and easy vision. However, there was still something missing. As one fine judge noted, the beautifully flighted chip which forced the Bulgarian goalkeeper to make a fingertip save would, pre-World Cup, almost certainly have been less speculative, something more instant and direct, something beyond the resources of a merely decent keeper.
England's captain, Steven Gerrard, who was admirably quick to concede that he had made a few mistakes of his own while acknowledging the requirement of international players to maintain certain values, made some encouraging noises in Basle. He said that Rooney had trained hard and seemed to be focused on the game. Gerrard also echoed the message coming down the years from the inconvenienced golfer. In action there can indeed be a powerful release.
How Rooney resolves his married life is something over which he may not have too much control. But then we are told he is seeking to atone, a challenge which will test him soon enough. Tonight, though, there is a different one. It would be ironic, but not too surprising here, if he just happens to tear it to shreds.
Pietersen should go back to basics if he wants to pass the Ashes audition
Even by his own standards of stupendous partiality, celebrity sports columnist Piers Morgan is currently inspiring at least some of the gawping incredulity he and his fellow talent-show panellists adopt while analysing those auditions which would more appropriately demand action by the League Against Cruel Sports.
Quite soon after demanding to know who Franz Beckenbauer thought he was, he now berates the England cricket selectors for dropping his bosom pal Kevin Pietersen. It's a disgrace, one of the most shameful decisions in the history of English sport, wails Mr Morgan.
Presumably, he didn't see the shot which gave Pietersen a golden duck in the final Test of a summer in which he had made a progressive parody of his former brilliance.
Pietersen is a player of huge talent, of course, and his contribution to the Ashes victory of 2005 will not be easily forgotten. However, his game is in such pieces it will need to provide more reassurance to a responsible set of selectors than could be provided by a spectacular century against the humdrum bowling of county cricket at the weekend. Despite much urging, Pietersen has neglected the hard job that from time to time faces even the most talented of performers. This is to rebuild your technique, vital work at any time but an absolute imperative when your next assignment is a Test series in Australia.
Whoever Pietersen, or his friend, thinks he is, it is a rule which has to be observed. It isn't a disgrace. It's a reality which grown-up sportsmen generally embrace.
After Murray's heretical confession, McEnroe might instil belief
Andy Murray's final disappointment of the Grand Slam season provoked a previously unmentionable thought. "Maybe, I'll never win a Slam," he declared after collapsing against the lightly considered Swiss Stanislas Wawrinka.
It was a bleak reflection, but when you considered the hysteria that periodically grips British tennis – ie every time a major tournament arrives – it was probably better out than in. Waiting for Murray's big breakthrough is beginning to look like a self-denying prophecy.
However, he remains Britain's outstanding prospect since Fred Perry and, having uttered the heretical self-doubt, he might have a better chance of performing an ambush or two of his own. Still, it would be a marvellous idea to invest in some top-flight guidance, ideally from someone like Boris Becker or John McEnroe.

A civil rights attorney helps protect the personal rights granted to you by the government. When someone violates those rights, a civil rights attorney can help you make them stop these violations, or repay you for any damage they have done to you. Your civil rights are spelled out in federal and state constitutions and in discrimination laws. In fact, civil rights attorneys are sometimes called discrimination attorneys because they frequently handle cases involving a person being treated differently based on gender, age, ethnicity, or sexual orientation.

But with Brazilians going through a rough patch, the duo feel
this is the time for the fans to show their true support for the club.
"All I want to say to our fans is that they must support the team
at all times. It is not an easy situation that we find ourselves in and
this is the moment when we need most.
"It is about time for our fans to rally behind us. As players we
are always motivated because we have our families, friends, technical
team and management, but we need our fans when we go out to the field,"
Laffor told Football411.
A number of Sundowns fans were arrested early in October
following ugly scenes at the Dobsonville Stadium when the team lost 2-0
to Moroka Swallows, and Sandilands added that throwing missiles won't
change anything.
"The players don't enjoy where we are at the moment, but we are
not there on purpose. Fans must be there when we win and when we lose,"
the Bafana Bafana goalkeeper told this site.
"There is no use being a fan if you are in it just for the win,
while there are three possibilities in a match. They must come to the
stadium to support us, that's what supporters are there for and they are
not there to throw missiles.
"They shouldn't be there to show disgruntlement. They must know
the players are working hard to change the situation," Sandilands
Sundowns travel to Durban to face AmaZulu on Saturday in the Telkom Knockout quarter-finals.
