Red Lobster sued over injuries from caustic beer
A customer claims lye used to clean tap lines at a Dallas location scorched his mouth, throat and stomach.
Like finding lye in its beer lines.
Though it's an isolated incident, a man from Panama City, Fla., claims he was on the receiving end of Red Lobster's worst nightmare when he was scorched with potassium hydroxide -- lye -- from a Budweiser he drank during a business lunch in Dallas in May 2011. According to The Dallas Observer, Justin Grogg took a sip of his beer and immediately felt his throat, esophagus and stomach starting to burn.
According to Grogg's lawsuit, he got the attention of the restaurant's manager, who told him to "drink water and go to the hospital." The complaint alleges the manager knew that the beer tap system had been cleaned that morning with potassium hydroxide, which is caustic and can cause severe bodily harm if swallowed.
Doctors treated Grogg quickly, but he still experienced "severe pain" and was told he could develop "esophageal strictures, esophageal reflux changes, and/or pharyngeal infection in the future as a result of the ingestion of the potassium hydroxide."
Grogg is seeking between $50,000 and $100,000 from Red Lobster and the company that cleaned the Dallas location's beer tap system to cover medical expenses and compensate for his physical pain.
For Red Lobster and Darden, it's just the latest setback in an already tough 2013. Just before last year's presidential election, Darden faced criticism for testing the use of more part-time employees to avoid paying the cost of the national health insurance mandate known commonly as Obamacare. The company backpedaled after customer satisfaction declined at restaurants where the tests took place.
For two consecutive quarters, Darden has failed to meet sales expectations as it admitted misjudging its specials by offering 2-for-$25 meal deals when competitors such as DineEquity's (DINE) Applebee's, Brinker Restaurants' (EAT) Chili's and Bloomin' Brands' (BLMN) Outback Steakhouse offered 2-for-$20 meal deals or $10 entrees.
Darden also increased the number of chicken and beef items offered at Red Lobster from 8% of the menu to nearly a quarter, added low-calorie options to Olive Garden's menu and changed that chain's slogan from "When You're Here, You're Family" to the more fast-paced "Go Olive Garden." That move didn't work, and in January, Darden replaced Olive Garden's president in an effort to boost results. Then Darden announced plans in February to completely overhaul the chain and tear out its Tuscan decor.
Darden has since introduced value meals and toyed with no-waiter, no-tip counter service in an effort to boost sales.
Note: This story was updated May 17 to correct the company name to Darden Restaurants and that this incident happened in 2011.

The popularity of a proposed downtown arts and entertainment district has some asking the city to consider creating a second district for its riverfront.
A plan to designate a roughly 90-acre strip along Bank Street Northeast and Second Avenue Southeast was unanimously approved by the Decatur Planning Commission on Tuesday. The measure now goes before the City Council with backing from downtown merchants, Decatur Downtown Redevelopment Authority, Chamber of Commerce and the city Planning Department.
The proposed district would allow alcohol to be served outdoors and carried in the street within its boundaries. Patrons can purchase only one alcoholic beverage at a time, but cannot take alcohol from one business to another. Drink sizes are limited to 16 ounces, and alcoholic beverages must be carried in paper or plastic containers.
Glass bottles and cans are prohibited, as is alcohol purchased outside the district and brought within its boundaries.
Dozens of residents, downtown business owners and city officials filled the council chambers to hear the commission's public hearing. Of the three who spoke, all were in favor of the district.
Susan Conner, co-owner of Riverwalk Marina, asked the city to consider adding another district that would include areas along the Tennessee River. Susan and Steve Conner's restaurant and bar The Hard Dock is on the river.
"I think it's a wonderful idea, but we feel a little jealous and left out," Susan Conner said. "The Hard Dock, Holiday Inn, the new Food Fite and Amberly Suites all have alcohol licenses which meet the requirements to have an entertainment district."
City Planner Karen Smith said state law allows cities to establish up to two districts of no more than a half-mile by a half-mile. Smith said officials want to study the potential for a second district on the riverfront.
"It's just a matter of working out the geographics and mathematics," she said.
Smith said some have proposed extending a riverfront entertainment district down to Ingalls Harbor and pavilion, which have hosted several festivals and events.
The ordinance for the proposed downtown district is modeled closely to one in Savannah, Ga., which has been successful, Smith said.
Last year, the legislature passed a law, co-sponsored by Rep. Terri Collins, R-Decatur, creating another category of alcohol licenses issued by the Alabama Alcoholic Beverage Control Board. It allows cities of at least 25,000 to pursue entertainment districts. To qualify, a district must have at least four businesses licensed to sell alcohol.
"Young professionals have been asking for this, and we view it as an economic developer," said Crystal Brown, the Decatur-Morgan County Chamber of Commerce's vice president of business development. "We have a lot of confidence that our citizens will be responsible, and this will be an enhancement to our downtown, not an impediment."
At Tuesday's public hearing, downtown property owner Judith Tardy said she supports creating the district but has seen many downtown redevelopment initiatives come and go.
"You should consider the many owners who will be directly economically affected by your actions," Tardy told the seven-member commission prior to its vote.
In voicing her support, former councilwoman Pat Woller asked the commission to consider the next generation of potential residents and business owners.
"We must look to the future," Woller said. "It may not be mine or your preference, but it is the preference of the younger people who want more places to go."
Collins and former councilwoman Shirley Hammond, a downtown businesswoman, sent letters of support, while resident Darin Peer sent one stating the proposed district was not right for Decatur.
"This is not The French Quarter in New Orleans, not Laclede's Landing in St. Louis and not Beale Street in Memphis. ... this is Decatur," Peer wrote. "I believe a better, more responsible approach to this would afford businesses the luxury of serving and allowing alcohol to be enjoyed in and around their property by patrons, but not allowing them to purchase a drink at say, Cafe 113, then allowing them to walk all the way to Simp McGhee's. This could potentially create a trail of trash not seen downtown."
District 5 Councilman Chuck Ard, who previously said he favors an arts and entertainment district, abstained from Tuesday's vote because he will address it on the council. Council President Gary Hammon has cited concerns about its enforcement, but Decatur Police Chief Ed Taylor has been involved in its planning and said he is supportive of the district.
Tiffeny Owens can be reached at 256-340-2440 or firstname.lastname@example.com.
Downtown arts and entertainment district
One drink on-street limit: Licensed businesses can serve only one drink at a time in a paper or plastic container to a customer.
Drinks outside businesses: Patrons can purchase a drink from a licensed business and go outside to drink it. They cannot enter another licensed business with that drink. An alcoholic beverage acquired elsewhere cannot be brought into the district.
16-ounce limit on alcoholic beverages.
Cans, glass and bottles prohibited.
Open container law still enforced where applicable.
Hours: No alcohol allowed earlier than 6 a.m. or later than 1 a.m. Monday through Saturday and 1 a.m. to noon Sunday.

Chesapeake's plan to survive low gas prices
While investing heavily on projects to stimulate domestic natural gas demand, the producer has also been moving to increase higher-margin liquids production
With gas prices forecast to remain in the doldrums for the short- to medium-term, Chesapeake has launched a two-pronged strategy to tackle the low margin environment. While investing heavily on projects intended to stimulate domestic natural gas demand, the company has also been moving rapidly to increase higher-margin liquids production.
Natural gas production represents 75% of the Trefis stock price valuation for Chesapeake.
See full Trefis analysis for Chesapeake
Soaring natural gas production outstrips demand
Technological developments have resulted in a dramatic boom in the U.S. shale gas industry over the last decade. Shale gas production increased from a base of near zero at the turn of the century to 4.4 trillion cubic feet in 2010. Growth has been soaring, with annual average increases of 17% from 2000 to 2006, and 48% from 2006 until 2010.
Rapid expansion in shale drilling activity across the nation has driven the 3.3% annual average increase in total U.S. natural gas production over the last five years, despite declining production from conventional resources. Meanwhile domestic consumption of natural gas during the same period only increased on average by 1% per year.
With demand failing to keep up with increasing supply, natural gas prices in the U.S. have slumped from over $13 per million British thermal units in 2008 to below $4 as of November 2011. With such low prices in the domestic market, pure dry natural gas drilling has become an extremely low-margin activity and even unprofitable for higher cost operators.
Rapidly increasing liquids production
In the face of low gas prices, Chesapeake is continuing its huge growth in production (13% year-on-year increase as of Sept. 30), but seeking to alter the production mix. With natural gas liquids tracking crude oil prices, Chesapeake has aggressively sought to position itself as a leading presence in liquid-rich shale plays over the last three years. The company now claims a leading position in 12 of the best 15 liquid-rich shale plays in the country.
Oil and natural gas liquids represented 17% of Chesapeake's total production in the third quarter, up from only 10% in the prior year. Actual oil and liquids production for the nine months to September 2011 reached 21.9 million barrels - a 71% increase year-on-year.
The company intends to continue to increase liquids production, with the proportion of drilling and completion capital expenditure allocated to liquids development increasing to 50% in 2011 and to 75% in 2012. Management is forecasting an average daily liquids production of 250,000 barrels by 2015, which is a 212% increase on present day production levels.
In pursuit of higher margins, Chesapeake is altering its production mix rapidly. The Trefis stock price valuation of $35.02 assumes the company increases total annual liquids production to 29.4 million barrels by 2015. There could be significant upside if management delivers on its stated strategy and delivers faster growth in this sector.
You can drag the trend lines in the modifiable charts above to see the impact of increasing liquids production on the estimated stock price valuation.

as ELENA GILBERT
Follow Nina Dobrev on Twitter.
Watch an interview with Nina Dobrev
In The CW's hit drama, "The Vampire Diaries," Nina Dobrev plays a double role, starring as Elena Gilbert, a beautiful young girl caught between two vampire brothers, and as Katherine Pierce, the ruthless vampire the brothers knew and loved in the nineteenth century.
For her portrayal of Elena/Katherine, Dobrev was awarded the Teen Choice Award for "Choice TV Actress Fantasy/Sci Fi" in 2012, 2011 and 2010 and the "Choice TV Female Breakout Star" in 2010. In 2012, she also was the first actress to win the People's Choice Award for "Favorite TV Drama Actress" as a write-in candidate.
In film, Dobrev has just wrapped production on the Summit Entertainment film "The Perks of Being a Wallflower," written and directed by Stephen Chbosky. The film, based on the novel published in 1999, tells the story of an introverted freshman named Charlie (played by Logan Lerman), who learns about everything from drug use to suicide after being taken under the wings of his step-siblings. Dobrev will play Charlie's older sister in the film, which will be released in September, 2012, and will premiere at the Toronto International Film Festival. She has also finished production on "The Killing Game," with Kellan Lutz and Samuel L. Jackson. The film centers on a man (Lutz) who is kidnapped and forced into the world of modern gladiators. Dobrev plays the wife of Lutz's character.
Dobrev was last seen in Screen Gems' "The Roommate," with Leighton Meester and Minka Kelly. Other past film credits include Montecito Pictures' "Chloe," with Julianne Moore, Amanda Seyfried and Liam Neeson, "Fugitive Pieces," with Ayelet Zurer and Rosamund Pike, "Away From Her," with Julie Christie, and "The Poet."
Television credits include lead roles on "DeGrassi: The Next Generation" and "MTV's The All American Mall," as well as a guest appearance on "Eleventh Hour." She has also appeared in the television movies "Never Cry Werewolf" and "Too Young to Marry."
Born in Bulgaria, Dobrev moved to Canada at the age of 2 and grew up in Toronto, Ontario. She currently lives in Atlanta, Georgia, where "The Vampire Diaries" is filmed.

Congratulations to the Georgia Bulldogs, who were named the AJC Sports Turkeys of the Year Thursday.
The Bulldogs received 30 percent of the nearly 8,000 votes and edged the beleaguered SEC officials for the coveted title.
Florida linebacker Brandon Spikes finished third.
Fans disagreed with the selection of Braves' outfielder Matt Diaz as a finalist. The top write-in candidates were: AJC sports writers (thanks!) and Braves manager Bobby Cox and G.M. Frank Wren.
Results and complete list of finalists are below.
Have a happy Turkey Day everyone. Till next year .. gobble, gobble.
Who was the biggest sports turkey of 2009?
Total Voters: 7,909

The way that the SEC has feasted on Georgia's defense, they are not only a turkey, but the stuffing and cranberry sauce.

Hey Bill, You are assuming we have a defense? It can only get better. Happy Turkey Day!
November 23rd, 2009
5:32 pm
Matt Diaz is not a "turkey." He is a great guy and should not be on your "list." Sometimes, I think the AJC is a turkey with these kinds of lists… Matt's base running mistake did not squash the Braves hopes for the playoffs. The fact that they didn't win enough games as a team squashed their play off hopes.
November 23rd, 2009
5:43 pm
Got to pick that punk spikes. I hope someone ends his career in the last game of the season and he only has the money UF gave him to come back to live off of. Go to hell and die!!!!!!!!
November 23rd, 2009

@ Nasty Nate – don't you mean die, then go to hell? I think if you're in hell, you're probably already dead.

I voted Spikes, with Kiffen as a close second – what he did was intentional whereas the Dawgs, SEC refs and Jason Elam just sucked accidentally. Braves who?
November 23rd, 2009
7:02 pm
Melly .. that is a popular quote from South Park and it is meant to be backwards.
I have to agree with the Diaz comment. He is not the reason the Braves didn't make the playoffs. He was actually one of the few players that seemed to even be trying this year. He won far more games than he lost by beating out grounders and hustling on every play. I will take a split second of being indecisive over lack of effort any day.
November 23rd, 2009

Floriduh Gators, the best team money can buy.
November 23rd, 2009
9:44 pm
Nasty Nate, what Spikes did was inexcusable. However, your wishing him to die and go to hell shows you for the idiot you obviously are. On second thought, I would guess your age to be about 12 or 13 so you just have a lot of growing up to do!
November 23rd, 2009

# Matt Diaz shouldn't be on the list I think that mistake he made on base will make him a better player in the future.
# Lane Kiffin is going to have Tennessee back on top soon the sec east better watch out the vols are coming.
# SEC officials are cheaters they want to keep Florida and Alabama on top.
# Jason Elam is old the falcons need to get younger at that position.
# Georgia Bulldogs wasn't expected to be great this season they lost two of their key players Matthew Stafford and Knowshon Moreno. (By the way Let's Go Yellow Jackets)
# Brandon Spikes is not a bad guy he just got caught up in the moment and made that mistake on the field but I think he learned from the mistake hopefully he did.
November 23rd, 2009
10:10 pm
Matt Diaz needs to be removed from this list. He is one of the reason why the Braves were still in the playoff race. How about putting the AJC writers on this page for false reporting that Griffey and Furcal joined the Braves.
November 23rd, 2009
10:13 pm
Did anyone see the helmet to head shot that Spikes took after he lost his helmet? It was away from the play and nothing was called. I would have done more than eye gouging!
November 23rd, 2009
10:20 pm
Dawgs…they suck!
November 23rd, 2009
10:27 pm
reply: Rick
Dude you are absolutely right The AJC writers who false reported that Ken Griffey Jr. and Rafeal Furcal should be on the list. I guess they didn't want to be labeled as the turkey of the year cause they were scared.

November 23rd, 2009
10:48 pm
To let the SEC officials, and particularly Marc Curles and Penn Wagers' crews– off easy is unthinkable. They had a heavy hand in deciding some crucial games this year– all favoring Florida and Alabama. Before anyone chastises Georgia, Arkansas, or Mississippi State for losing some games– they need to look at these SEC refs and what a poor job they did!

Jason Elam is an absolute, full-blown moron.
November 23rd, 2009
11:23 pm
Hey CoachJ, I was at that game, 3rd base side, 10 rows from the dugout. It was the most heart wrenching scene I'd ever witnessed at a professional sporting event. And I've been on the losing side of some pretty bad little league teams.
It wasn't the sole reason for the Braves not making it. But it was a microcosm of a long and surprising and frustrating season. It killed an improbable rally. You just saw a turnaround for the team and it was killed in an instance. That pitcher wanted no part of Prado.
They were so close. But like the Falcons in NY…um NJ on Sunday, they still lost.
November 23rd, 2009
11:27 pm
And to all the other Matt Diaz apologists, I guess Elam will be a better kicker after missing a few lately. Or Jenkins will have more confidence in his hands after dropping a nicely lobbed TD pass late in the game.
I like Matt "Caveman" Diaz but come on folks. He made a bonehead play at a crucial part of the season. How is that so excusable?

What a bunch of losers, and I include the AJC Sports department. Wanting people to die, get hurt and live a poor life. I am so glad that all of you are so perfect that you have not made a mistake. Get a life people. Again, What does Lane Kiffen have to do with sports in Georgia. Unless you think his whipping of the dawgs was a turkey.

My initial temptation was to go with the most emotional letdowns and I nearly voted Elam's misses or the Bulldog's poor coaching (penalties). However, five of these six options were mental, physical or negligent mistake, but one was criminal, so my vote goes to the criminal act that could have permanently maimed a person for life–Brandon Spikes!
November 24th, 2009

I can easily see why it would be the Bulldogs but what makes or breaks my weekend is the Falcons so I have to go with Elam. How does this guy still have a job? He must have pictures of Arthur Blank and his wife with a dead mule or something. There is no reason this guy should not have been replaced. There has to be someone out there that is out of a job that would give a better effort to say the least.

Elam.. he's single handedly cost the Falcons at least two games with missed field goals … that any league average kicker should be able to make.. which will cost the Falcons the wild card.

Larry got it right. Brandon Spikes' criminal action is hands down THE worst thing I've seen-so far-in 2009.

No brainer! Team calls you out. Say they are going to slaughter you by 300 plus points! Not enough motivational fodder. Team fails to materliaze against blowhards! Prediction of spanking comes true. Star player unfairly cited for celebration after touchdown. Coaches rally behind him! Other coaches that is. Not his own! Team murders team mascot with heartless play. Brings on heart attack! Mourning fans look for something uplifting. What do they get? A home loss on Senior Night to a team which had not prevailed in Athens since the end of the War Between The States! How is that for uplifting? At least the coordinators are consistent. Consistently awful! Both believe in running the same schemes until they are successful. They never are! The Turkey Award definitely belongs to Mark Bicht and his heartless Dawgs. Have made this a truly nightmarish season for all of Bulldog Nation! Hope jerkoff enjoys Tallahassee, Florida. Happy Thanksgiving all. ++STENDEC++

Frustrating, regrettable mistakes, blunders, and incompetency… but the Spikes thing shows something rotten at the core.

The biggest turkey goes to the "writer", and I use the term loosely, who wrote the caption under the picture of Josh Nesbitt saying he likely would "have went" elsewhere. Good gracious, guys, does anybody proofread the paper? Or are we so dumb in the state of Georgia that a grammatical error like that goes unnoticed by the general public? Please, do you have the nerve to issue a retraction?

How can you even consider Kiffin,,, he will either turn the program around or be gone…. unlike UGA program where you have a nice guy as coach and not a clue what to do about his lousy program,,,

Bobby Cox for his stupid bull-pen moves that cost Braves at least 5 are more games.
Bobby Cox for keeping Norton.
Bobby Cox for keeping Schafer in line up almost two months.
Bobby Cox for leaving Frenchy in line up everyday till Wren traded him.
Bobby Cox for last 5 games of the season…..
Bobby Cox for picking nose all the time
Thank the Lord its his last year.

Taking shots at Diaz and Elam (or any single player in a team sport) is cheap, and lazy "journalism." There's always plenty of blame to go around in a single loss, or a bad season.
It's gotta be the SEC officials! And not just the ones on the field, but the guys in the league HQ who spent most of the season saying, "yeah, they goofed again — Sorry!" until even the national media was calling for changes. Then they suspend one crew! It's the dumb leading the blind….

Washaun Ealey said he had his eyes closed and Brandon Spikes was near his eyes.
That's odd, a running back running with his eyes close. No, football players are taught when you are in a pile up to protect themselves because anything goes do there.
Eye poking, butt pinching and grabbing of other body parts happen in pile ups in little league, high school, college, professional and even in backyard pickup games.
Get over it.
"I'm pretty sure it goes on back and forth," Ealey said. "We probably do it and other teams do too. It's all football. We're just out there trying to have fun."

Social Media is a "Super-Cycle" Built for Two – or Two Billion (part 4)
Nick is a member of The Motley Fool Blog Network -- entries represent the personal opinion of the blogger and are not formally edited.
This week Global X Funds celebrates the one year anniversary of their Global X Social Media Index ETF (NASDAQ: SOCL). CEO Bruno del Ama discusses the reasoning behind the fund and considers trends and projections based on previous revolutions in global business.
[continued from part 3]
Slepko: Analysts like to compare how the revenue per click for Facebook (NASDAQ: FB) is only a fraction of LinkedIn's (NYSE: LNKD). Is LinkedIn an outlier and fluke, or is it an indicator of what Facebook could achieve when it gets its act together?
del Ama: The answer is, "We will see." It is reasonable that one social media property for a certain segment could have a higher potential revenue-per-user based on the type of user it has. When you consider the professional network versus the social network, it makes some intuitive sense that there might be some amount of discrepancy between the two. But LinkedIn is also more advanced in its monetization phase. Whereas Facebook currently derives most of its revenue from advertising, LinkedIn generates the majority of its revenue from hiring related services and its premium subscription service that is highly utilized by headhunters and recruiters.
The monetizing aspect of Facebook is still in its second inning, they are just scratching the surface. Facebook has been focused on building their network, attracting users, and digging their moat. They are just starting to figure out how to make some money – and even in these very early stages they are already massively profitable. Once they set out to really make some money (without annoying their users and by enhancing the experience), I think there is a lot that will happen over the next decade that will surprise all of us in ways that we are not even thinking about.
Slepko: Do you think Zuckerberg will be the CEO that takes Facebook forward, or will they do better with some changes at the top?
del Ama: I don't know, but what he has achieved in less than a decade is unbelievable, you can't argue with that. I'm always a fan of any company that is owner-operated. He's a massive shareholder, his incentives are clearly aligned with shareholders, and when you look at owner-operated type businesses like Steve Jobs and Apple, or Akio Morita and Sony, they may go through slow quarters but they tend to outperform the market over the long term.
Is Zuckerberg the right guy to take Facebook forward? When you realize he's connecting 1+ billion people, then you also begin to understand that there so many dimensions the company will be dealing with – government regulations, user privacy, and foreign intelligence concerns to mention a few examples – I would hope at least he arms himself with an experienced team of people that can help him navigate the complexities the company will face simply as a result of its size.
Slepko: How do you feel about the special shareholder structure he has established – and is it the wave of the future?
del Ama: It's good and bad. I think the unique structure gives him a greater ability to plan strategically for the long-term. He has been very public about what that means – that it is his paramount priority to build and maintain the best possible network, or in his words "connecting the world". If he didn't have that unique shareholder structure, he'd have a lot more pressure on growing profitability now and a lot more quickly, which may not be the best thing for the firm at the moment. (Although, it still does raise some questions with regards to governance.)

CSW59/Beijing+20 (2015)
The fifty-ninth session of the Commission on the Status of Women will take place at United Nations Headquarters in New York, tentatively scheduled for 9-20 March 2015. Representatives of Member States, UN entities, and ECOSOC-accredited non-governmental organizations (NGOs) from all regions of the world attend the session.
The Commission will undertake a review of progress made in the implementation of the Beijing Declaration and Platform for Action, 20 years after its adoption at the Fourth World Conference on Women in 1995. The review (Beijing+20) will also include the outcomes of the 23rd special session of the General Assembly, the first five-year assessment conducted after the adoption of the Platform for Action, which highlighted further actions and initiatives.
The session will also address current challenges that affect the implementation of the Platform for Action, as well as opportunities for achieving gender equality and the empowerment of women in the post-2015 development agenda.
The review will be conducted at national, regional and global levels. States are urged to undertake comprehensive national-level reviews of the progress made and challenges encountered in the implementation of the Beijing Declaration and Platform for Action and the outcomes of the 23rd special session of the General Assembly. (See guidance note for the preparation of national reviews: Arabic, Chinese, English, French, Russian, Spanish).
The regional commissions of the United Nations will undertake regional reviews. Both the national and regional review processes will feed into the global review.

We're dealing with downright cold temperatures in South Carolina.
Many of us are lucky enough to have a safe place to stay warm but others need some help.
Hidden among the bright lights of South Carolina's "Famously Hot" capital city is a line of men.
The men need warmth in more ways than one.
"They're giving me a hand to build myself back up and that's what I'm trying to do right now," said a man waiting outside of the shelter.
As the temperatures drop, the line grows at Oliver Gospel Mission.
"You get breakfast and lunch, or breakfast and dinner, and a bed. You have to shower, it's a requirement," said another man waiting to get into the shelter.
When it seems like getting inside the building is the only hope for warmth, a woman brings a donation.
Sherri Potter drops off blankets for the men.
"It's going to get down to 16 degrees tonight, so I figured, what better place to bring them, than someplace that someone can use them," explained Potter.
As the line moves inside the building, Columbia keeps bustling.
"God gives us a chance to do better for ourselves. We've just got to do better," said one of the men. "You've got some kind people in Columbia."
Oliver Gospel Mission has been helping people in Columbia for more than 125 years.
It's not just blanket donations the shelter needs. Food, toothpaste, cough drops, clothing and more, all help.

The gang is sitting around Buffy's dining room table, discussing the first slayer. Giles explains that the enjoining spell must have offended the source of Buffy's powers. Buffy admonishes him for not warning them, and Giles protests that he did say there "could be dire consequences." Buffy retorts, "Yes, but you say that about chewing too fast." In both cases, Giles is correct. Joyce wanders in and wonders if she's missed something. Willow fills her in, and Joyce offers to make some hot chocolate in a delightful oh-dear-me-yet-still-nonplused tone. I surely hope we see a bit more of Joyce next season. I know Buffy went off to college, but her mom lives in town, so I'm sure Buffy is home a lot, doing laundry and eating free food. Or was that just me in college? Everyone gratefully accepts. Joyce: "Xander?" Xander: "Yes. What, Joyce? Nuuuh, Buffy's mom." Joyce asks him to be her "kitchen buddy," and Xander accepts, looking as disturbed as I feel remembering his dream. Giles asks Buffy if she's okay since she looks a little glum, and she seems pensive, contemplating the source of her slayer skills. She gets up to go shower, saying, "At least you all didn't dream about that guy with the cheese. I don't know where the hell that came from," as the rest of the gang shares a look.
Upstairs, Buffy pauses in the doorway of her old darkened room and remembers Tara's words to her: "You think you know. What's to come. What you are. You haven't even begun."

And the usual stuff from TheBloodyPulpit:
1. I go way back w/ French Burgundy (well...not from the very start) to the early-70's when you could
buy PremierCrus in the low $teens and GrandCrus not that much more expensive. Recall DRC LaTache &
Richebourg at HappyHollow in KansasCity around $25. Bertagna GrandCru in the upper teens. Barolets in
the $20-$50 price range going way back in yrs. And, of course, TonyRodent down below $10.
Those were some of my most memorable of wines. But, as the prices dramatically escalated and I was
no longer willing to pay those $$'s, I pretty much turned my back on Burgundy. Over the yrs, as friends have
laid a Burg on me from time to time, I would see glimpses of what once drew me to Burgundy...until I find
out the price.
There has been a lot of buzz about how a new generation of winemakers have been making waves in Burgundy
and raising the bar to new heights. So I felt it was time for me to revisit Burgundy...which was the idea
of this tasting. Having been out of the Burgundy market for so many yrs, I was pretty much flying blind.
I was not going to spend days & days reading BurgHound to find out what's hot. I mainly went w/ old-time
names that I recalled as making good Burgs in days of yore, plus relied heavily on the recommendations from
the three shop owners I bought from locally. Onviously, the prices were all below $100, so I wasn't tasting
the creme de la creme from Burgundy.
I thought it would be interesting to pair the wines w/ some from Calif....not to determine, once & for all,
who makes the best Burgundies in the world...but to see where the respective Burgundy worlds stood. I selected
the Calif reps as folks who were solidy in the "In Pursuit of Balance" crowd; a group who reportedly make
wines of lower alcohol and more an old-world style (whatever the heck that means...lower in alcohol, I guess).
So...what was my take-away from this tasting (being a LosAlamos guy....we make WAG's and highly confident
extrapolations based on one, sometimes zero, data points)?? I saw no compelling reason to jump back into
buying Burgundies again. It can be argued that all these wines need time to develop...that I wasn't willing
to pay the big $$'s to get the really good stuff....that I only picked the low-end/TonyRodent-level Burg
producers...that I picked the wrong vintages...yada/yada/yada. That said...I will probably be putting more
French Burgs in my tastings. We'll do this again w/ LarryArchibald picking the French ones so we'll know
we get good ones...rather than the schlock I picked out. Maybe my palate has been so shot by high-octane
Calif Zins that I can no longer appreciate the finesse & nuance that characterize Burgs? Maybe I'm going
to have to raise my pain level to over $100/btl if I'm going to drink Burgundy. But there is enough passionate
folks out there for Burgundy that I plan to continue (cautiously) try Burgs in hopes I'll find something that
will inspire me for the genre like they once did. Or...maybe....by the end of the day I'll just blow off,
like I have w/ Barolo/Barbaresco. the entire genre as not worth my time and $$'s. That it's just not a
category that my palate can appreciate. That you have to kiss too many frogs to find a prince. I swear....
it's a minefield out there.

On The Road To Forever
Sin will shipwreck you

On the Road to Forever

Friday, January 13th, didn't turn out to be a very lucky day for the skipper of the cruise ship Costa Concordia, nor its 3,200 passengers and crew numbering more than 1,000. Captain Francesco Schettino intentionally steered his ship off-course to show off, so to speak, to some people on the island of Giglio, Italy.
As the ship approached the island, it hit a reef, gouging a huge gash into the aft port side of the ship's hull resulting in shipwreck and partial sinking. Lack of investigating the seriousness of the accident, the captain reported the incident as a "minor inconvenience" after the lights went out and did not issue the "abandon ship" order until one hour into the disaster.
Then, it seems, the captain was one of the first people off the ship. According to an article published on MailOnline.com by Rebecca Evans, Paul Harris, and Nick Pisa, Schettino made his bizarre excuse for leaving the ship during a three-hour court hearing in the mainland town of Grosseto before his release.
He told investigating magistrate Valeria Montesarchio: "The passengers were rushing all over the decks trying to scramble into the lifeboats. I didn't even have a life jacket because I had given it to one of the passengers -- I was trying to get them into the lifeboats in an orderly fashion. All of a sudden the boat listed between 60 and 70 degrees. I tripped and ended up in one of the lifeboats. That's why I was in there." Schettino's behavior has already been called into question after dramatic audio tapes revealed how a furious harbor official had ordered him back onto the bridge to oversee the rescue, after he was shocked to learn he had already left the Concordia despite dozens of passengers still needing help.
Despite freeing the captain (now under house arrest), Judge Montesarchio wrote that he made no attempt to return to his ship and described his actions as "inept, negligent, and imprudent."
A former captain who sailed with him claimed he handled ships "like a Ferrari driver." Martino Pellegrino said: "I've always had my reservations about Schettino. He was too exuberant, a daredevil. More than once I had to put him in his place." This author concludes, left to our own devices, we will trip and fall every time.
An atheist asked a Christian lady if she believed the Bible was true. She said she did. "Then," said the atheist, "tell me how a whale swallowed Jonah, as a whale's stomach is no bigger than a man's head."
The lady said she didn't know exactly, "The Bible says it was a big fish prepared by God, but when I get to heaven I'll get all my questions answered." The atheist smugly asked, "What if you can't find Jonah when you get to heaven?" The lady answered, "Then I guess you can ask him about the fish yourself."
(Hebrews 12) "But if you fail to do this, you will be sinning against the Lord; and you may be sure your sin will find you out" (Numbers 32:23). The captain of the Costa Concordia was not cruising in approved shipping lanes at the time of his accident. His excuse was the reef was not on the charts. The fact is it didn't have to be for a ship the size of the Concordia because it didn't belong that close to the island in the first place.
Sin is the same way. Sin will take you where you never intended to go; keep you there longer than you ever intended to stay; and make you do things you never intended to do. When we deviate from the course God has laid out for us to follow, we're headed for shipwreck. "I didn't know" is always our first defense. We don't know because we don't study God's Word. Knowing the way is one thing; obeying the way is a must.

A freight train traveling through Clinton collided with a tractor-trailer Thursday morning.
Traffic was blocked at the intersection of U.S. 76 at Springdale Road because the train was still stopped at the railroad crossing as of 10:30 a.m.
A spokesperson for CSX said the train was headed to Hamlet, NC, from Greenwood when the accident happened about 7:30 a.m.
Clinton police are investigating the wreck and said no one was injured, but officials have not yet released how the accident happened.
The train was carrying three locomotives and 58 cars of mixed freight, the spokesperson said. He said they hope to have trains moving through the area again by Thursday afternoon.
FOX Carolina crews at the scene said the railroad crossing arm is also broken.
Drivers in the area should seek an alternate route if trying to cross the railroad tracks.

YAKIMA, Wash. -- The final day of the Fair was sponsored by the Yakima Valley Farm Worker's Clinic.
Volunteers were at the Fair talking to people about the changes to health care taking effect October 1st. They want to help families transition to the new rules.
"We just want to get the message out that there is a new law that's going to open up the doors for health care," Jennifer Collins, Director of Marketing for the Farm Workers Clinic said, "to make it affordable for people who never were able to get that before, come talk to us, and we'll help you figure it out."
The Clinic made Sunday "Family Day" at the Fair. Any family of five received half off admission for the entire family.

About WATD-FM WATD is one of those seemingly impossible ideas which actually worked and has now endured for over three full decades. The idea for the station in Marshfield emerged as the result of a prospecting trip Carol Ebert Perry and Edward Perry made in December of 1972.
