Four-Legged FogheadsPet Food Express and KFOG will be featuring a new Four-legged Foghead every other Friday on the air!
Freckles, a gorgeous, tri-colored 10-years-young Australian Shepherd, has got it all: looks, brains and a big heart!
Freckles is available for adoption from Muttville Senior Dog Rescue now, and he still has plenty of get-up-and-go and would love to go for walks or make visits to the local dog park. He's wonderful with other dogs and co-exists peacefully with cats, too! Freckles wants to share his love and affection with everyone he meets. Now, he needs to find a forever home where his human companion or family will show him that same love and affection in return.
Meet this beautiful, sweet boy today! Please visit muttville.org for more information about Freckles and other adoptable senior dogs!

Six-year-old Petey is ready to dance into your heart.
This butterfly-eared Papillion/Cavalier King Charles Spaniel mix loves being around other dogs! He is an energetic, affectionate fellow and does great on leash walks—or entertaining himself with toys. He sits on command, dances and walks on his hind legs and loves a tasty treat.
Petey would do well with children older than toddlers and would enjoy having another dog companion. He loves the dog park, and sometimes barks at things he is not familiar with—like the doorbell. Petey is available for adoption from Grateful Dogs Rescue.
Please visit our website at www.gratefuldogsrescue.org to submit an adoption application for Petey or to find out more about their adoption process.

Tim McGraw, the 2-year-old German Shepherd, will put a song in your heart.
He is about 75 pounds, a bit thin, and will be about 80-85 lbs. when matured. Tom is happy, playful, active, submissive in his overall nature, loves other dogs and has good food drive. He is generally quiet and does have a good alarm bark. This gorgeous Shepherd is crate trained, quiet at night in his crate and does not chew or dig or jump fences. He loves playing with other dogs, so should be good in a multiple-dog home.
Tim is available for adoption now from Golden State German Shepherd Rescue! Visit gsgsrescue.org for more info. and for more available Shepherds!

She is available for adoption from Silicon Valley Animal Control Authority (SVACA).

Not only does Janey like to run around the yard and act silly, but she really enjoys cuddling up on laps and getting tummy rubs, too!
Janey has shown to be quite fond of both her human and canine companions, and would make an amazing addition to a wonderful family.

Chuck, a handsome, 5-year-old male Cairn Terrier mix is the newest Four-legged Foghead!
He is available from the East Bay SPCA Oakland Adoption Center and he is a fun-loving, happy fellow!
Chuck gets along with other dogs and would thrive with a family that can spend time playing, taking him for walks and keeping him motivated with toys and games.
Posted Friday, June 8th
Lyla is one of the brightest and most charming little dogs you are likely to meet!
The challenge will be keeping this intelligent young lady occupied both mentally and physically. Because she is not only athletic but eager to learn, almost any k-9 sport will be enjoyable for you both. Try agility, flyball, or Nosework. You can also make up your own games to play indoors on a rainy day. She really enjoys a good game of tug with a soft rope and she has a natural out.
Lyla is very active and will enjoy lots of daily exercise. She would make a great running dog. She loves her treats and is very smart so she will be fun and easy to train. She is affectionate and wants to be an integral part of an active family who will appreciate her charm and talents.
Lyla is available for adoption from Marin Humane Society in Novato. Visit www.marinehumanesociety.org for more information about Lyla and other adoptable pets!
Posted Friday, May 25th
Our latest Four-legged Foghead is Cheeto, the 5-year-old Lab!
Cheeto's owners are moving out-of-state and cannot keep him, so Golden Gate Labrador Rescue is helping him find a new home. Cheeto is blind, so he has been a little harder to place. He gets along with kids, but we don't know about cats. He is a little more than 100 pounds and could use to lose a little weight—but just passed his vet's wellness exam!
With the right family, some training and exercise, Lab Rescue is confident Cheeto can thrive. Do you have some room in your heart for a big ol', sweet, lover boy Lab?
If interested, you can contact Lab Rescue's Ronnie at 408-738-0841.

Find love in your "Heart" with this gorgeous, 1-year-old spayed rabbit.
Heart is a delightful mix of beauty and brains! Did you know rabbits can learn their names, play with toys, use a litter box like a cat and will bond to their human guardians for life?
Heart is looking for her loving forever home with people who will allow her to be a pampered indoor house rabbit. No outside hutches for this lady! After some fun time running and playing in your home, she'd love to sit next to you on the sofa and watch some TV.
Heart, like most rabbits, is more fragile than a cat or dog. Rabbits are typically not a good choice for families with children under 5 years old. With proper care, house rabbits can live to be more than 10 years old. The most compassionate and cost-effective way to adopt a spayed or neutered rabbit is to adopt from a rescue group or local animal shelter. Find Love in Your Heart!
If you are ready to bring some love and joy into your home, Heart is your girl! Contact Marcy at SaveABunny rabbit rescue at 415-388-2790 or visit SaveABunny's Web site at www.saveabunny.org to learn more about adopting a rescued rabbit, volunteering or making a tax-deductible donation.

Meet Shami, a 5-year old long-haired brown & white cat.
She is already spayed and very affectionate. Shami was found wandering the streets and reported to be injured. After treatment for flea allergy and a close watch on her diet, she is doing well. She likes being picked up, offers a loud purr to show her affection, and would enjoy being the
queen of a household. Her beautiful fur will require regular brushing to keep it luxurious and mat-free. She agrees—and allows long brush sessions.
Shami is available at our Cat Adoption Center at the Walnut Creek store. You can visit Shami or other adoptable cats there 7 days a week! Contra Costa Animal Services are the "Animal Cops," rescuing animals from unwanted and abused situations, helping to find homes for thousands of animals that come through their two shelters every year. See all of their animals available for adoption at http://www.ccasd.org. Also, find them on Facebook at www.facebook.com/ccasd.

Meet Coconut, a 6-year-old, 6-pound female Chihuahua mix.
Coconut arrived at Peninsula Humane Society as a somewhat fearful stray in November. They've made her healthy and taught her how to love and trust humans again!
Today, she's a friendly, outgoing, playful girl and good leash-walker who loves toys. She has a lot of energy, but is also gentle. She would be a good match for someone who has never had a dog. She can get along with other dogs and children of any age—but not sure about cats. She
would likely benefit greatly from obedience training, so they are making that a mandatory part of her adoption.
And, best of all, she qualifies for Peninsula Humane's current "Sweet Deal." They are waiving the adoption fee for all chocolate, toffee, caramel and golden Chihuahuas and Chihuahua mixes.
To find out more information or to adopt Coconut please visit: PeninsulaHumaneSociety.org.

Merlin, the newest Four-legged Foghead, is about to cast a spell on the airwaves this Friday!
Meet Merlin, a 4-year-old Longed-Haired neutered male cat who is friendly, social and has a gorgeous gray and white coat. Merlin is a special medical adoption due to having a cataract in his left eye. His eye does not bother him but he should be kept indoors and have regular check-ups
as he gets older. Merlin has a lovely personality: he's curious, loves attention and loves to be petted. Merlin was a stray kitty picked up in the Outer Sunset about a month ago. He is currently available for adoption at SF Animal Care & Control's Cat Adoption Center located in our San Francisco - Market Street store (1975 Market St.).
Rescue a friend in need.
There are thousands of pets available from over 100 California rescue organizations, just waiting for your love. Find your match today! Search Adoptions

Book Description:
Why has the economic growth performance of Sub-Saharan Africa been disappointing on balance over the past 50 years? More importantly, what can be done to reverse that trend and to sustain and improve upon the accelerated growth experienced in recent years? What are the possibilities and policies for Africa to reduce poverty and achieve sustained, rapid economic growth? What are the lessons of success in both Africa and elsewhere? Could some of the policies that proved so successful in East Asia help reverse the deindustrialization of Africa in the past three decades and be the basis of its structural transformation? These were the questions posed to a diverse group of experts on development convened by the Initiative for Policy Dialogue (I.P.D.). This volume reflects the highlights of their deliberations. It broadens the policy debate, expands the policy options, and proposes alternative development strategies. This book captures the lively, and sometimes contentious, debate, and provides a note of optimism for the future. Though success is not assured, this volume argues that there is good reason to believe that policies based on lessons of successes, notably in East Asia, can be adapted successfully in African contexts.

EAGLE (WKOW) -- A field trip turned traumatic for nearly 50 kids in Waukesha County on Monday.
The school bus in which they were riding hit a 70-year-old man who was trying to help a turtle cross the road.
The bus was heading to a nature preserve when it hit the man on Highway 59 just west of Eagle.
The local sheriff's department says the driver hit the brakes but couldn't avoid the man.
The 70-year-old was taken to the hospital.
He's expected to survive.
The principal of the school children on board says teachers on the bus went into crisis mode.
"The teachers did very well. They made sure first of all that the children were fine, and asked them to stay calm, they started going row by row, asking them how are they feeling," said principal Miguel Sanchez.
None of the students were hurt.
The turtle also survived the crash.

Congress Plaza Hotel is in a great location, with access to restaurants and shopping downtown.
This is not a good place to stay if you need reliable internet. The lobby's connection was good, but the connection in the rooms was abysmal. Not only was the connection slow, but it would turn off for hours at a time, and the staff really had no idea how to solve the problem.

Staff was friendly, hotel looks nice and the rooms were clean. The bed was comfortable. The location is great and we got it on a deal for kayak at $109 when everything else was close to $200. I was a little wary with the price being so low, but the hotel did not disappoint.
The rooms are small, but they were still nice. If you book knowing they are small, you won't be disappointed.

There was broken glass in the bar and I cut my finger pretty badly on our first night at the hotel. Although hotel staff was very nice and they did call security, I thought they could have done more in way of compensation. In hindsight, I probably needed stitches and other than call to my room by the manager (who had already left by the time we got back to the room), they really didn't even follow-up.

I liked the location and the decor of the room.
The room had a little mold in the bathroom and the excuse given by the front desk was that mold is to be expected in a older building. Also, by the elevator on our floor there was a hole in the floor housing an electrical outlet (a safety hazard). For the price, I expected at least a coffee machine for the room.

Potatoes Euphoria
Comment on this recipe
On Christmas Day, do you sometimes wish you had an extra burner available for use on your stove? Try this fabulous crock pot recipe and you will have that extra burner! This recipe is also nice for making ahead of time and transporting to grandma's house.
4 scallions, finely chopped
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
8 medium boiling potatoes (about 2 pounds), scrubbed and sliced into 1/8-inch thick slices
8 ounces cream cheese, cut into 1 inch cubes
In a small bowl, combine the scallions and garlic. In another small bowl, combine the salt and pepper. In a well-buttered 3-1/2 quart crock pot, layer 1/4 of the sliced potatoes. Sprinkle with about 1/4 teaspoon of the salt and pepper, and top with 1/3 of the cheese cubes and then 1/3 of the scallion/garlic mixture. Make a second layer of potatoes, sprinkle with about 1/4 teaspoon of the salt and pepper, and top with half the remaining cheese and scallion/garlic mixtures. Repeat with a third layer of potatoes, sprinkle with another 1/4 teaspoon of the salt and pepper and top with the remaining cheese and scallion/garlic mixtures. Make a final layer of potatoes and sprinkle with the remaining salt and pepper. Cover and slow-cook for 2 hours at 300 degrees. Stir the potatoes to distribute the melting cheese, cover, and continue slow-cooking until the potatoes are very tender, about 1 hour longer. Stir the potatoes well to mash slightly, and serve immediately.

DineLA @ The Bazaar
- s
- SouthernFoodie08 Jan 28, 2009 03:24 PM
Anyone been yet? Any recommendations? I just noticed the menu choices:
Choice 1 - Choice of any 1 Tapa from a wide variety of Rojo Traditional or Blanca Modern Tapas
Choice 1 - Choice of any 2 Tapas from a wide variety of Rojo Traditional or Blanca Modern Tapas
Choice 1 - Choice of 1 Patisserie Dessert
Choice 2 - An Assortment of Bon Bons
Only 3 tapas? For a $44 price tag? It sounds like such a small number of choices that I want to make my choices count. I read Kevin H.'s review, but just wondering if there are other opinions on making the most of the DineLA menu.
re: kevin h
So, you think we should skip the DineLA special? Or, are you saying that if we each pick different items off of that menu, that would be the best choice because it is possible to share the tapas?
I am just worried that I am paying $50+ and am going to have to go to get a burger or pizza afterwards!
re: SouthernFoodie08
I was thinking more of the latter. However, as exile mentions below, choose the courses carefully (i.e. pick the pricier tapas!).
However, I know for a fact that I would be stopping by for a Double-Double with only four plates of tapas in me!
Hi SouthernFoodie08,
It doesn't sound like a good deal at all. Considering Rojo and Blanca's Tapas *normal* menu price range from $7 - $18 (with a few exceptions) and most of the Tapas are under $10; and the Patisserie Desserts range from $0.75 - $12... you could end up with choices that make it more expensive to eat than ordering off the regular menu(!).
For example: 3 Tapas @ $9 (normal price) = $27; then add on 1 Dessert for $12 (most expensive one) = $39 total vs. the $44 DineLA price.
Of course, if you chose all the $16 - $18 Tapas + Dessert, and that's where you can save a few dollars. :)
One of the more expensive items that's worth it regardless of which way you go: Jamon Iberico de Bellota (normally $18). :)
re: exilekiss
I heard that the meat and cheese plates aren't included, so no Iberico I'm afraid.
re: kevin h
Hi kevin h,
Ouch! They don't even include the Iberico in the DineLA deal? Oh well. That makes it even less worth it. :(
re: exilekiss
It was "worth it":
Cost breakdown as follows:
Chose any 3 tapas, jamon / queso menu excluded.
If you select a few of the "canned" seafoods (kumamoto oysters or uni + hot "meat" dishes (lamb or veal) or sliders (foies gras burgers or uni bao), 3 tapas alone will be ~$36.
Chose 1 Philly/Hillly sammie ($8)
Chose 1 dessert ($10).
Do the math.
It was a fabulous time. In fact, out of the 2 years, this was the finest DineLA meal I had. Gordon Ramsay is the true rip-off IMO. HC and/or Food Destination (or myself) should be throwing up their blog posts before this weekend.
re: TonyC
Hey TonyC,
Sounds like you had a good time. And that's what I said in my original post above: If someone chooses the more expensive Tapas, then of course, they will exceed the $44 price tag. If they choose 3 Tapas that are normally $7 - 9 on the regular menu, and a regular dessert (even their most expensive at $12) it's cheaper to order from the regular menu.
I look forward to your Gordon Ramsey writeup. Thanks.
re: TonyC
I agree.
We did dineLA at the Bazaar with a party of 3 and thought it was a good deal, but we consciously ordered some of the pricier items to make it so.
Also, the inclusion of the philly/hilly cheesesteak was not listed on the dineLA website so that was a nice surprise.
On top of the 3 tapas and patisserie selection each, we added a plate of the jamon iberico de bellota (amazing!) and 1 additional tapa, and were all reasonably sated at the end of the meal.
Definitely worth checking out for dineLA.
re: TracyS
Thanks to everyone for your input! We are going to go tonight. I will type in my results afterwards. I am very excited, though!!
re: SouthernFoodie08
Just wanted to follow up and tell you all that we had a wonderful time at The Bazaar on Friday. The service was great (we did have to wait awhile to sit down and the scene while waiting around the bar was off-putting, but once we sat down the service was very good.).
We did take advantage of the DineLA menu after all. I thought I would be prepared, since I did research online and wrote a list of potential things to order. But, I flaked out and left the list at work so I had to fly blind!
As said before, they gave the philly cheesesteak complimetary. I thought it was good, not great. I liked the cheese, but didn't like the crunchy bread that it was piped in as much. It was one of my friends' favorite of the meal.
I got the foie gras sliders, which were DELICIOUS!!! The creamy/salty foie gras was set off perfectly by the sweet quince jelly on the sandwich. I could have eaten another plate of those easily!!
Then, I got the wild mushroom rice with Idiazabel cheese. When you had cheese on your spoon with the rice, it was tasty. Flavored well, creamy. Unfortunately, there was just a thin slice if cheese and the rest of the rice was bland. I had to add salt to make it palatable.
For my 3rd tapas, I got the lamb with potato foam, which I really enjoyed. It was EXTREMELY rare meat, though so it was a bit off-putting to dig into the foam and see that pool of bloody jus at the bottom of the bowl.
Finally, I got the hot chocolate mousse with hazlenut cream and pear sorbet. OH.MY.GOSH!! That dessert was perfect! The pear sorbet tasted like the best frozen pear and that hazlenut sauce. . YUM! That battled the foie gras for my favorite of the meal.
My friends got the king crab, hanger steak with pequidilla pepper, shrimp with garlic, lobster medallions, mushrooms, and some salad that looked like a slice of gelatin. Everyone agreed that the hanger steak was the best of all of their choices.
In the end, we all had a really nice time. I was disappointed that you could only get pitchers of white sangria (only 2 of us wanted to drink) and that only the $36 version of jamon iberico de bellato was offered (they took the smaller amount off the menu), but overall I enjoyed The Bazaar and would love to go back! Thanks for all of your help!
re: SouthernFoodie08
the reason you can only get a pitcher is because they make it for you tableside with sparkling wine. It's quite good actually though you don't get as much fruit essense was you would with sangria that has the fruit soaking for hours
re: exilekiss
well actually the bellota platter is around $40, so ur completely off. and you get a free philly cheesesteak which is $8
re: exilekiss
Hey Exile Kiss,
I went there last night and just starting to report back in my blog. You forgot about the cheesesteak which is $7 each as an appetizer. Most of the desserts are $10 each. You minus that $17 from $44 = $27 for the three tapas (which fits your average of $9). Our group spend an avg of $32 for the taps, so it's worth a little saving.
More importantly it got us to the place, so even if you don't want to do DineLA, it's worth going there.
re: Pepsi Monster
Hi Pepsi Monster,
Oh there's an Appetizer as well as 3 Tapas and a Dessert? I was only responding to the Original Poster's information (where they listed only 3 Tapas and a Dessert). Of course if you get an Appetizer like the Cheesesteak as part of the deal, it makes it more economical and a better deal. :)
Glad to hear you had a good time!
OP -- SO glad you went and enjoyed yourself:)
A group of went to Bazaar last night and LOVED it. Everything from the flavors, to the presentation, to the pacing, to the service, to the wine list, to the sommelier, to the music, to the decor is fantastic. This was my 8th Dine L.A. meal (yes, I am having too much fun) in a week, and by far the best experience this week.
The choices are extensive; much more so than the other DineLA menus have been. We were not hungry, but not "stuffed" either. I understand how Kevin could still be hungry:)
However, the DineLA pricing isn't much of a discount. We saw, because the initial check had the normal pricing, followed by a check with the corrected "dineLA" pricing that we saved $20 total or about $7 each.
For the 3 of us, using the DineLA menu and supplementing with one ($57) botle of wine, 2 cappucinos and 1 cup of tea, the total including tax and tip, was $85 per person. Great value, but not an inexpensive choice. And, be aware that valet parking is $10, plus tip, which brought my the total cost to $97.
re: ElissaInPlaya
I went a few nights ago with a friend and we were offered the DineLA choice, but we opted to pick what we wanted and see how it panned out.
We each had a foie gras cotton candy. My friend loved it, but I did not. The huge chunk of foie gras terrine inside the cotton candy was not appealing to me for some reason.
However, we had the foie gras buns and they were HEAVENLY! Delicious bread, amazing and perfect amount of terrine, and the quince preserves were perfect. I could eaten more of those for sure!
We also had the ajo blanco (white gaspacho) which I had eaten another version of his at his restaurant in DC but this time it was more of a pudding, versus a soup. I MUCH preferred the version in DC. Something was off putting about this version. It lacked flavor and I just didn't like it solidified versus the soup. It was beautifully presented though!
We also ordered the "not your everyday caprese" salad, which was divine! I loved the idea of liquid mozzarella and eating that with the tomato ball and the pesto was just an explosion of flavor in my mouth. Yum!
My friend insisted on the artichoke and citrus salad, which was tasty and fresh, but not exciting like the caprese.
I also tried the Philly cheesesteak. I loved the cheese sauce inside but it was quite expensive for basically one bite of food!
I could have easily ordered more but we decided on desserts instead. My friend ordered the coconut cake, which I thought would be a winner, yet lacked flavor and was too gelatin like.
I ordered the strangest sounding dessert (as I usually try to) the beet meringues with pistachio cake (looked like a sponge lol), pistachio creme anglaise, and I think it was a berry sorbet. I saw beet meringues and had to try it, but I wouldn't order this again. It was beautifully presented, like a forest, but it wasn't satisfying.
Overall I thought it was an amazing experience, and would love to go again with more people to be able to try more of the menu options!
We did the DineLA the other night with 7 people celebrating a birthday.
Everyone got a philly or a hilly sandwich,
Then we each picked 3 items from quite a selection.
Then we got a dessert.
We also ordered 3 extra items.
Everything was great, and everyone ended up getting to try a bit of everything.
Service was excellent as well. The cocktails were some of the best I have had although a bit pricey.
Overall everyone was really happy and enjoyed the Bazaar and also glad we made the reservation before the 4 star review.
After comparing the prices the DineLA menu was definitely worth it the way we ordered.
re: bohemiana
You have to pick and choose.... definitely get the jamon, it's already like $18 or something.
re: jaykayen
As the most expensive item the economist (i.e. cheapskate) in me says to order that, but on the otherhand it's just ham. I can go to La Espanola in Lomita and get 4 oz of serano ham for $9. Does he do something special to it?
re: bohemiana
No, nothing is done to it. It's just sliced and served. And it's AMAZINGly good...
re: bohemiana
Bohemiana: My entry was from two years ago and I went again last year. Note that the portions on some of the dishes have gotten smaller. As for the value, do you know you can choose 3 items (not just 1) from the second course menu? WildSwede offers some good suggestions below on what not to order. To get the best value, I would order the shrimp, scallop, flank steak and Japanese taco. I also like ceviche with avocado roll and organized caesar salad. For starters, I would order Tortilla de Patatas "New Way" or "Philly Cheesesteak". I like all the desserts. Hope you enjoy it!
We went during DineLA in October last year and it looks like the menu for DineLA, January 2012 does not have all the same items on it. From when we went, I would definitely get the Philly Cheesesteak again. We also got the Japanese Taco which was one of the appetizer selections when we went. Both are fabulous. When we discussed the meal afterward, we both agreed the apps were the best. For the second list of choices, what we got and liked a lot was the Jamon, Papas Canarias, Mussels. The ones I would not order again are the croquetas de pollo (very heavy and not that imaginative), sauteed cauliflower "couscous" (this was bland and just missing something), and the ultimate spanish tapa. I ordered some additional items and one was the olives, both traditional and contemporary. They were very good. I took my mom for her birthday so they totally spoiled us with dessert. I got the panna cotta which was the best out of the bunch. I know there are other things we ordered, but those mentioned above are the most memorable. We had a fantastic experience. This time around, we are trying Tres for lunch.
