The Week Ahead: July 1-5
July 01, 2013 - Posted by Communications Intern
"Today, an overwhelming majority of senators moved us one important step closer to passing comprehensive immigration reform. This bill, should it become law, will enable us to win the global battle for talent and remain the world's most entrepreneurial nation. I applaud the bipartisan decision in the Senate and encourage leaders in the House to seize the opportunity because America needs a smarter immigration system that meets the needs of our 21st century economy."
— Steve Case, Chairman and CEO of Revolution LLC and Co-Founder of America Online, following Senate passage of S. 744 June 27.
Immigration Reform: House Up Next Following Bipartisan Passage in Senate
Adapted from Friday's Policy Update by Maurice Belanger
On Thursday, the Senate voted to pass the sweeping immigration reform legislation introduced in April by the bipartisan "gang of eight." The vote on final passage was 68 to 32. Majority leader Harry Reid underscored the importance of the vote by having Senators vote from their desks as the clerk called the roll — a formality generally reserved only for the most momentous votes. Vice President Joe Biden presided, and the final vote took place before a packed Senate Gallery.
Now the pressure is on the House of Representatives to act. Congress is in recess this week for the July 4 holiday, but House Republicans already plan to meet on July 10, after their return, and discuss how to proceed on immigration.
Opponents of reform are in a stronger position in the House, but the eyes of the nation are now focused on House leaders. House decision makers also are hearing support for broad reform from across the political spectrum, including the nation's Bibles, Badges and Business leaders and the Evangelical Immigration Table — networks whose support in the Senate helped create space for the introduction and passage of a broad, bipartisan bill.
Tuesday: Bethlehem Project to Launch Citywide in Los Angeles
On Tuesday, just in time for Fourth of July citizenship celebrations, the Bethlehem Project will launch citywide in Los Angeles with an in-person press conference at 9 a.m. PDT at American Apparel.
A project of the National Immigration Forum, the Bethlehem Project facilitates immigrant integration by assisting local business partners' eligible immigrant employees with the citizenship process. As a result, they become more valuable workers and full participants in the workplace, community and economy.
Tuesday's press conference will highlight American Apparel's participation, the addition of the AltaMed health care network and increasing interest among other Los Angeles businesses. Speakers will include leaders from these businesses, the Forum and the Los Angeles Area Chamber of Commerce, as well as an American Apparel employee who is participating in the program.

MUST READ: NEW YORK TIMES: Immigration Advocates Lay Plans to Sway House
By Julia Preston
June 28, 2013
WASHINGTON — Even as they were popping corks on Thursday night after a strong bipartisan vote in the Senate to pass an immigration bill, supporters of the overhaul were laying plans for the far more difficult task of moving something similar through the Republican-controlled House.
Speaker John A. Boehner of Ohio insisted on Thursday that the House would not take up the Senate bill and would pass its own measure only if a majority of Republicans backed it, instead of relying more on Democratic votes. As a sign of the conservative direction of the debate in the House, its Judiciary Committee recently approved a bill to enforce immigration laws inside the country that was much tougher than anything from the Senate. The House has yet to produce a bill that includes a core piece of the Senate legislation: a path to citizenship for 11 million unauthorized immigrants in the country.
While supporters are hardly confident, they say House Republicans will soon discover a crucial difference this year from failed immigration efforts of the past. They say their coalition is broader and far more energized and committed than in 2007, when an immigration overhaul by President George W. Bush did not even reach a vote in the Senate.
Latinos, who showed their voting clout when they overwhelmingly supported President Obama last November, are a leading force, but are not the only one, supporters said. Business and technology industry groups, labor unions, agricultural growers, farmworkers, law enforcement associations, churches, educators, youth groups and other immigrant organizations are also in the mix.

GANNETT NEWS SERVICE: Senate passes sweeping immigration reform bill
By Erin Kelly
June 28, 2013
Immigration reform advocates and opponents are turning their attention to the House after the Senate's passage of a landmark immigration reform bill to boost border security and provide a pathway to citizenship for many of the 11 million undocumented immigrants living in the United States.
The Senate passed the historic 1,200-plus page bill Thursday by a vote of 68-32. Fourteen Republican senators joined all 52 Democrats and two independents to pass the bill, which was crafted by a bipartisan "Gang of Eight" senators that included Arizona Republicans John McCain and Jeff Flake. Louisiana senators split on the bill with Democrat Mary Landrieu voting in favor of it and Republican David Vitter voting against it.
"The Senate's passage of a major immigration reform bill is a milestone, but it is only half the battle," said Stephen Yale-Loehr, an immigration expert and law professor at Cornell University Law School. "A tougher battle lies ahead in the House."
House Speaker John Boehner vowed that the House would take up its own legislation rather than voting on the bipartisan Senate bill.

If Prison Break were set inside this big house, Michael and Linc never would have seen daylight. In A&E's eye-opening docuseries The Squad (Thursday, 10/9c), a crack team of Tennessee corrections officers is followed as it thwarts escapes, hinders smuggling and investigates all manners of jailhouse crimes. We were scared straight after speaking with the squad's special agent in charge Jason Woodall about things he's witnessed behind the walls.There's no grace period for rookies. "My first day on the job I responded to a stabbing," Woodall recalls. "I've seen people die right before my eyes."If it fits, it ships. "Any contraband that can fit in a body cavity — drugs, even handguns — can be smuggled," he says.A coupla bad apples.... "The majority of the inmates are there to do their time and go home. It's not a free-for-all of criminal activity," Woodall says. "But it only takes a few."Subscribe to TV Guide Magazine now!

BRAND NEW: Pig-man Sighting On Cannock Chase
Hi guys!
I was contacted today by a gentleman who lives in the Walsall area concerning a sighing of the pig-man that dates back to 2006. It's an interesting story I'm sure you'd all like to hear. For that reason, I have chosen to publish it unedited here today.
Please feel free to comment or get in touch if you have questions or similar sightings to report. The man concerned will see this blog post and most likely answer any comments you might make. I found this to be a rather compelling story, and I'm certain you will too.
See you on the other side
Oh yeah..... this guy's also seen some UFOs on Cannock Chase, but I'll let him fill you in on that.
It was about 2004, three of us decided to camp on Cannock Chase. Myself another lad and a lady. We decided to bike there, the lady overestimating her ability. Took us hours to get there. When we arrived it was dark and we forgot the torches. We were by the big communication tower at Pye Green. We say three flashing lights above some trees on a path called dead mans walk. We agreed to set up tents there so we had light. So we did. From exhaustion from a 6hr bike ride we all just fell to sleep. When we woke up we questioned these 3 flashing lights as there was nothing electrical around. Nothing else strange happened we went home having a good time.
We new that was a UFO. Not saying aliens but defiantly never seen any thing like it before. So we told quite a few people, and went back on many occasions spanning around 2 years, to see if we could find anything else. We saw nothing.
We caped there one Friday night rough around 2006. Just a sheet in the trees. Prob about 5 of us. I had a lift there by one of my mates. They all had work Saturday so planned to go back early. Friday night we were quit close to the road. We had a fire burning for warmth and light. The police pulled up and told us to put it out. Me being me I told them no. They got in there cars and drove off. Which I thought was strange, that's never happened to me before. So next day the lads went to work. They were planning to come back and camp the night again after work. I decided to stay on my own. Move all stuff deeper into the forest, as not to attract police attention again. I was there 5hrs on my own. I sent up 3 tents put sheets in the trees, built a surround to stop the wind, got all the fire wood ready, it was a master piece. 2 of my friends came for me and said no one was up for stopping the night. I was pi**ed off. All that stuff was mine. Around £600 worth. And I was to just leave it in a forest unattended. Wasn't happy.
I'm not easily frightened. I spent 5hrs alone in that forest that day with no fear. I had an eighteen inch razor sharp machete. I know sounds a bit sinister but we are all responsible adults that were there. And you never know when you might need one.
So that night I rang every one I knew to get to come back with me so my stuff wasn't left. No one wanted to. So I decided I'm doing it. I'm gonna camp there on my own. I got a book i was reading and of I went. I pulled up in my car where we had originally seen the UFO. I walked casually across the road. There was a tall bush you had to walk through to get on the path. I suddenly clicked and said to myself. Your on your own now, be a bit more wise and cautious. So I stopped in the center of this large bush and light a fag. I listened and heard movement. I slowly and quietly moved out of the bush and round expecting to see a big deer. In stead about 200 yards away from me(I was looking down a hill) I saw a white figure on all fours, looked like it was sniffing the ground, as a dog would if you were walking down a street covers in lamp posts. First I thought its the warden. He's found the stuff and is looking for us with his dog. But the sound it was making sounded more like a pig sniffing. So I thought it was a large boar. Was the right colour to be a pig. I watched it for about 30 seconds trying to determine it. Then it stopped dead, didn't move. I knew it now knew I was there. I froze, took hold of my machete and waited. Then this thing stood up on it's back legs. It was massive. I'm 6'3 this thing was at least 7ft tall. And it ran at me at speed up the hill, like a person would run. Squalling like a banshee you would hear on a horror film crossed with a pig. I ran like a b**ch got in my car and drove off without looking back. Iv never been so scared in my life. I have been back since, but never on my own.
The funny thing iv never heard of any one knowing or any other proof of it till last year. Can't believe I'm not the only one to see, this. Typical I see something after 2 years of trying when I was on my own. I have proof of the lights in the trees. I have 2 other eye witnesses to that. I have no proof of the pig man other than believe me or not.
One other thing I missed about the first time was, as we were riding our bikes towards the lights each of us felt a massive drop in temperature. Only way to describe it would be to walk into a big meat freeze, instantly ,extremely cold.
As you can see, that's a pretty amazing story that sounds spooky as hell. We all know the story of the Cannock Chase pig-man and how he allegedly came into being, but reading yet another detailed sighting report from a local resident still chills us to the bone.
I wonder whether anyone will ever manage to get a picture? Who knows.
If you are interested in talking with the gentleman concerned, drop me an email and I'll do my best to help.
Thanks again for stopping by. I'll post an update soon.
Until then... stay out of the woods!

Google Street View Reveals Paranormal Presence In Cannock Chase Home
A Cannock Chase resident has recently been in touch after viewing an image of her home on Google Street View. What started out as a harmless bit of fun soon turned into understandable fear when she noticed what seems to be a topless male apparition in her bedroom window. Zooming in to take a closer look, we see the ghostly figure also has a face and appears to be looking directly at the camera.
Now, there are lots and lots of apparent "spirit photos" online that can be viewed by anyone with the inclination, but this one, I'm sure you'll agree, really makes you think.
I'm currently looking into the history of this property in the hope of coming to some conclusions about who, or what this strange image could represent. While it might look like a ghost initially, I'm a little concerned we could be dealing with something demonic. I will be speaking with the owner of this property again (who is noticeably shaken by the photograph) later on this week, and we will hopefully come to some kind of arrangement whereby I will be allowed to perform a more thorough investigation.
Please feel free to leave comments with your opinions on this one guys. To be honest, I can't see how it could possibly be a reflection or anything inside the room misrepresenting itself through the lens.
Also, get in touch with me at firstname.lastname@example.com if you feel you have anything to contribute.
Please share the arse off this post on your social media pages. Hopefully someone might come through with some information.
Cheers guys!

Paranormal Activity Stafford
(source: Staffs Past Track)
Yesterday this clip was sent to me by the guy who runs a Facebook group called "New Spotted Stafford". Usually, videos of orbs in peoples homes don't really impress me, but as this one comes from a gentleman who lives in a city that boarders Cannock Chase, and as he is a relatively reliable source, I thought i'd post it on the blog and see what people make of it.
You might have to watch the video on full screen to see the objects, but I think it will be worth it.
As these type of clips go, I think this is quite a convincing one, the orbs appear to be moving too fast to be dust particles, and they're movements are too linear to be smoke.
Could this really be evidence of paranormal activity in whatever form?
Feel free to comment on this post with any suggestions / conclusions. I know the guy who sent it to me really wants to know what you all think.
Thanks guys!
Catch you soon,

Unmanned Drone At Castle Ring
The Iron Age monument at Castle Ring on Cannock Chase has long been an area associated with unusual and unexplained happenings. Werewolves and other monsters are heard and even spotted at the hilltop location almost every year, leaving many local residents fearful of treading on the ancient site after dark. With UFO sightings also occurring there on a monthly basis, I place the ancient site at number one on the Cannock Chase weird list.
A friend uploaded this video to YouTube yesterday and it sincerely blew my mind. It has always been very difficult to accurately describe the Castle Ring monument as it is so damn big. Although there are a few aerial photographs knocking around online, non of them really show the site as a whole, and non of them seem to capture the atmosphere of the location - this video does!
So, give it a watch, and if like me, you think it is a fantastic clip, spread it around.

It Fell From The Sky
Luckily, thanks to great minds like DR Karl Shuker, the creature was soon identified as a Hawk-moth Caterpillar. This one was apparently ready to shed his skin which helps explain the strange colour and eye shape.
Although the lady believed it had fallen out of the sky (certainly not impossible) it seems much more likely that it fell from a tree in the garden during the heavy rain and lightening.
I didn't really much know about these odd little guys before, but thanks to the picture and the curiosity it caused, you'll be glad to know i'm now a fountain of Hawk-moth knowledge.
And in other "thunderstorm-related" news....
Over the last few days, with the summer rain falling hard on England, I had a strange feeling that some UFO reports might come in, and it seems I was right....
Local news website Connect Cannock has reported on a UFO sighting from only a few days ago. Although details are sketchy at the moment, I have contacted them and am currently waiting for the witness to get in touch. I hope i'll be able to uncover some more details for you within the next few days, but until then, here is what we know so far:
"A Connectcannock follower contacted us reporting a potential UFO sighting in the Chase area. The object was described as being a turquoise colour before changing to white, and flying erratically through the sky."
"Is coincidental that the event occurred at the same time as a strong thunderstorm passed through the area?"
Reporting back soon,
Keep watching the skies...... except if it's raining freakishly large insects ;)

Huffington Post Mention The Pig-man
(Source: Huffington Post)
"Deep in the woods of Cannock Chase, England, where sunlight doesn't venture and animals don't frolic, there is one creature that roams: The Pig-Man.
In a town also known for its frequent werewolf sightings, Cannock Chase has a long history of eerie happenings, according to the BBC. As early as the 1940s, the Pig-Man -- a half-human, half-swine, and full terror of a creature -- has allegedly been seen by those brave (or perhaps dumb) enough to venture into the woods. Witnesses recall a human body in tattered clothes, a distorted face, an unmistakable snout and the shrill squealing of the Pig-Man heard miles away.
And now one man has reportedly solved the mystery of the nightmarish Pig-Man.
Lee Brickley has spent over a decade researching and hearing first-hand accounts of the Pig-Man, according to the Birmingham Mail. His findings are now published in his new book on strange phenomena, "UFO's, Werewolves And The Pig-Man."
In it, Brickley explains that the Pig-Man is less of a diabolical, disgusting humanoid and more of an urban myth.
The Mail reports that a recent email sent to Brickley from..........more

During this time, he gained valuable insight into government operations, including a tenure as the non-commissioned officer in charge of Pentagon tours.
After wrapping us his military service, Brad returned to his home state of Kentucky and started two small businesses which gave him an important perspective on the many challenges facing small business owners in the United States today. Two years later, he sold the businesses to finish up his degree at Western.
As a member of the Kentucky National Guard, Brad was commissioned as a lieutenant in the Field Artillery and deployed as part of Operation Iraqi Freedom. He served as a platoon leader while his unit conducted convoy security and patrol missions.
Brad returned home to Kentucky with a renewed sense of pride in his fellow soldiers. Witnessing the great bravery and sacrifices of Kentucky soldiers under hostile fire had given him an unshakeable faith in the people of this state and nation.
Returning to work for the Kentucky National Guard, Brad served in operations and then as the director of the Partnership Program with Ecuador. He went on to assist at the U.S. Embassies in Buenos Aires, Argentina and Quito, Ecuador. Most recently, he completed more than two years with U.S. Army Africa where he traveled to nearly a dozen African countries to conduct events, coordinating with Department of State diplomats as well as host nation military officials. Brad's experiences with international government relations helped him better understand what political changes we need to make at home to continue to be a world leader abroad.
Brad has seen firsthand the profound sacrifice of brave Kentuckians and their families over the past 23 years to serve their country. It is this knowledge that propels him forward and solidifies his commitment to promoting K.E.N.T.U.C.K.Y and the values of its people.
Brad's family includes his wife Sara, and two daughters, 9-year-old, Alexis, and 17-year-old, April. The Copas family currently resides in Lexington, Kentucky.

Three DD
You never thought you would see the day you wish you kept those flimsy, cardboard three-d glasses from the Super Bowl. Well, gentlemen, that day is upon us.
There are few things in life – if there are any at all – greater than a pair of breasts. Whether they're big or small, globular or oblong, God's creation or man's – breasts are beautiful… and we love looking at them. Honestly, boobs are like pizza and there's no such thing as bad pizza.
Henry Hargreaves understands that. Which is why he combined his two favorite pastimes (photography and sweater puppets) when he created Three DD. Going the same route as Larry Flynt and Hugh Hefner would be cliché and, quite frankly, boring. So Henry decided to bridge the gap between the page (or screen in this case) and your eyes – by putting the pictures in three-dimensions.
3DD may be the greatest thing since sliced bread, but it is most definitely not safe for work.

Editors' review
WeChat is a social app that gathers all of your sharing and communication tools in one place, including video calls, text messages, and images. To fully experience the app, you'll need to get your friends to use it too, but it's a great way to connect with your friends across all platforms.
To get started with WeChat, you'll need to create a user ID and password, which requires you to enter your phone number and a four-digit code that is sent to you via text message. The app will need access to your Address Book, which is par for the course with this type of chat/text app. The interface has a very simple design and no ads to accidentally tap, which we greatly appreciated.
Four navigation buttons line the bottom of the screen: Chats, Contacts, Social, and Settings. The Chats screen lists your most recent chats, so you can continue a previous conversation or start a new one by tapping Magic Wand in the right corner. We got a friend to download the app and were able to text back and forth without any trouble. We loved the Web WeChat feature for moving from an iPhone to a PC, which was simply a matter of visiting the site on our PC and scanning the QR code using the app's scanner. In a matter of seconds, we were ready to chat with our other WeChat friends on our PC. If you're brave, the Social feature lets you look around for other WeChat users to chat with, or browse your own contacts. There is a very ample Settings menu for updating your WeChat profile, adjusting privacy settings, and browsing a helpful FAQ.
With the explosion of smartphones has come an explosion of social apps. WeChat stands out as a viable contender and we recommend it to all users.
Publisher's Description
Free texting, voice messages, and video calls in your pocket. 300 million people love WeChat because it's fast, reliable, private, and always on. Talk faster on the go with voice messages Crystal clear voice and video calls Instant messaging with group chats and animated smileys Chat with your friends or with people nearby Sending photos and videos has never been simpler Real walkie talkie mode with up to 40 friends Always on, no logouts, never miss a message Get message alerts instantly with push notifications Share, like, and comment on photos with your friends Import contacts and add friends instantly Available on iPhone and all other smartphones, all for free Download loads of new animated stickers from the Sticker ShopWeChat works over your phone's existing data plan or any WiFi connection.

The Busker Festival is making a move – up to Spring Garden Road.
The Halifax International Busker Festival is adding a stage in Victoria Park when it gets going again in August for its 24th year. The other stages at Historic Properties, Maritime Museum, Summit Plaza, and Sackville Landing will be just as busy Aug. 5 to 15.
"It's actually a return to Spring Garden Road," said Bernie Smith, manager of the Spring Garden Road Area Business Association, in a release.
Show organizers wanted to make the festival more inclusive to the city.
"Every year we are asked when the festival will be city-wide again and we've been working towards this goal for several years now," said Kim Hendrickson, president of ESP Production.
A fire gala on the Victoria Park stage will follow the Aug. 5 opening ceremony at 5 p.m. on the waterfront.
This year's lineup includes
- FlameOz, fire acrobatics from Australia
- Bendy EM, a contortionist from Australia
- Monsters of Schlock, a circus sideshow from Canada
- Arizona Jones, a comic stunt man from Australia
- Strings of Fire, virtuosic violin playing from Australia
- Rob Ray Collins, acrobatic stunts from the U.K.
- Throw2Catch, Russian bar and juggling from Canada
- Miss Molotov, a fire-eater and dancer from Nova Scotia
- The Cowguys, circus magic from Canada
- Scot Free, a stunt man from Canada

Dollar Falls and Stocks Shake-off Intraday Sell-Off
Joshua is a member of The Motley Fool Blog Network -- entries represent the personal opinion of the blogger and are not formally edited.
Shaking off a late morning sell-off the market was able to rebound closing near the highs of the session as volume pushed higher on the NYSE, but flat on the NASDAQ (NASDAQ: NDAQ). The EURO raced higher after comments from the ECB rate announcement pushing down the dollar index. Apple (NASDAQ: AAPL) was the catalyst for both moves in the morning and late afternoon as the stock continues to move sideways after its most recent decline. The NASDAQ and Small Caps hit new highs for the uptrend a good sign for the market in the short-term at least. Our uptrend continues to play out and barring any price destruction should continue on its merry way.
Gold and silver rebounded today after their most recent sell-off. Despite the Federal Reserve signaling a possible end to QE forever the metals have been able to rebound somewhat. Crude oil once again moved higher while the rest of the commodity space remained relatively flat. The inflation trade in stocks and commodities still lives.
Sentiment has crept back to lofty levels for the market, but not at the highs previously seen. The AAII bull sentiment figure jumped to 46.45. This past year the high for the index hit 51.64 back in February of 2012. The market was still able to rally higher and set a new high for the rally showing sentiment is not a reliable indicator for the market. Bears came in at 26.92 well above the 52 week low of 17.18 set back January of last year. Neither sentiment readings are at extremes, but we are close. The Investors Intelligence survey showed bulls back above 50% at 51%, but no near the high of 58% set earlier. Given the recent action and the lack of ultra-bullishness it appears this market has some room to run.
Tomorrow we'll get a reading on prices on imports and exports followed by the Treasury Budget announcement at 2pm. The deficit is expected to come in at -1 billion dollars. Many took income in the month of January rather than in 2013 due to the fiscal cliff. It will be interesting to see how much money the Treasury will be able to net. I'd think the estimates are off and likely sway when the debt ceiling debate would begin. We can only speculate at this point, but something to keep an eye on.
As we ride into the weekend, we expect to see this market hit new highs and stand ready to act as necessary. Cut those losses.

The Chilled Relish Tray...do they still exist?
- Beach Chick Dec 6, 2009 04:08 PM
Remember when you were a kid and they served the chilled relish tray with carrots, celery, radishes and maybe some olives at the restaurant?
This is way before 'Ranch' dressing..and there was no dip..maybe a little salt.
The 3 prong metal holder would sometimes have frost on the bottom...you could spell your name.
Durant's in Phoenix still does the tray..
We need to bring the relish tray back!
re: nosey
The Dog Team Tavern just outside of Middlebury VT was well known for its relish tray, which wasn't a tray but rather a spinning wheel (think captain's wheel of a ship, or a mini-windmill) that they'd roll over to the table. Made a mean sticky bun also.
Alas, I think I heard that it burnt down a few years back.
Yes, I remember them well.
IIRC, there were some issues with local health departments regarding relish trays, back in the late '70s, I believe the concern was that customers would handle the relish tray items or contaminate them in some manner and the restaurant would re-use the items, rather than tossing everything. Same with bread, butter and milk for coffee.
I used to go to a "deli" style place in CT that served bowls of half sour pickles as a starter. We would pick them up from the bowl with our fingers. After the laws in CT were changed, the pickle bowls all came with small tongs perched on the top, like anyone would use the tongs, anyway.
Anyway, that was CT and other states probably have different laws. I've never seen a relish tray-type setup in NYC, maybe just a few olives on a plate, some olive oil and roasted garlic for diping bread or butter, that's it. Too bad.
re: bushwickgirl
I could practically make a meal of the pickle bowls at Rein's Deli in Vernon CT.
My favorite deli ever.
re: bushwickgirl
Ooh, that' the deli I was writing about! Actually, there was a Rein's in the MeadowBrook Mall, just a strip mall, outside Willimantic; that's where I used to go. Same owners. Don't know if it's still there. That was my introduction to deli food, nothing else like it in that part of CT. Now I live in NYC, and it's everywhere.
I used to have the borscht, and those great pickles and rye bread, a good cheap meal. And an iced tea, the real thing, not from a mix. Those were the days...fond memories.
Edit: From the web link, it looks like the Willimantic store is gone, I think the strip mall might be gone now, too.
re: bushwickgirl
Do you men Eastbrook Mall, between Willi and Storrs? Yeah, the deli in there is gone. Good times. :)
re: bushwickgirl
Do tell about this deli? My grandmother lives in storrs and i could easily make a side trip...
re: kubasd
The shop in the Storrs area is gone now. It was in the Eastbrook Mall, outside of Wilimantic, on Rt. 195. The sister deli is in Vernon CT, and is still open.
I haven't been to Storrs since 1985, how are things?
For you to get your deli fix on:
re: bushwickgirl
aw, sad to hear it's gone already! Storrs itself isn't changed a lot, UConn has expanded greatly and is all new and shiny! Well, hasn't changed since i can remember, and i was born in '84, so my memory of '85 is somewhat fuzzy ;-) thanks for the point to the vernon one, next time i'm at my aunt's house or in that area i'll stop by for sure.
Well, I sure wish someone would come up with something different from bread and butter...sheesh! I would LOVE to snack on carrots & pickled veggies before a meal at a restaurant...but even new, independently owned places opening here offer the same old, same old.
re: scubadoo97
We recently had the relish dish at Billy's Tap Room and Grill in Ormond Beach, FL. It was a nice touch. Went well with cocktails before dinner.
re: Beach Chick
Yum! I've never had these, but they sound tasty. Are they something that's easy to find?
How about dilly beans? I LOVE these pickled green beans - the spicier the better. A friend cans them every year and I always look forward to my jar! A local restaurant here garnishes their Bloody Mary's with a dilly bean.
re: lynnlato
Dilly beans are good in a martini as well. Haven't seen them in years though
re: ChrisOC
I can usually find them at the grocery store, but they are substandard to my friend's version.
re: ChrisOC
You can find dilly beans in several nicer grocery stores here in NC - don't remember the brand but they are very good. Slightly costly but worth it..
re: lynnlato
Try Ricks Picks spicy pickled green beans! These are a new fave.
re: amanda3571
Amanda, what have you done?! I checked out this link and now I want to order like 5 different things, including the spicy beans. Damn! And they aren't cheap either!
(thanks for the link - I think I may place an order)
re: lynnlato
No, they're not cheap but they are SO good. Good for an occasional treat. We placed an order back in early December for Mean Beans, Phat Beets, The People's Pickle. & Heat Seekers. All are delishhh. If you have a WF near you, they might carry some of their products.
Unless you're as old as I and grew up in the Chicago area as I did, you probably never experienced the true and original chilled relish trays. In the 1940s and '50s they were almost universal in what the Frugal Gourmet referred to in one of his books as "every decent restaurant" in Chicago and most suburbs. More specifically the relish tray, which usually appeared on your table almost before the menu did, was found in steakhouses like Miller's on Western Avenue and chains of quality "American" restaurants like Harding's and Tofinetti's, and the legendary Henrici's, also sometimes in Italian restaurants but never in high-end French or so-called "continental" restaurants. The beauty -- and deliciousness -- of the relish tray was its very simplicity. Almost always in a clear glass dish layered with cracked ice appeared huge meaty California black olives with the pits still in them (something almost unfindable today!), equally large green olives still with their pits and sometimes pimiento-stuffed olives. Lying next to them were celery sticks (sometimes but not always carrot sticks as well) and at the opposite end of the dish some small pickles, usually of the small gherkin variety. The glory of the relish tray was the way that the celery lent its aroma and flavor to the olives, especially the black ones; they must have bedded down in that ice for a long time to achieve that extraordinary quality. Long gone, and much missed, but easily duplicated at home even today if you can find quality big, black olives with the pits still in them (and I don't mean imported, marinated, or "gourmet" varieties, just top-notch California ripe olives like we used to get easily years ago
re: ri_foodie
so eloquently stated ri foodie...
I remember them so well in the 60 and 70's when I was a mere child but they seemed to have vanished but I see them slowly coming back just like I remember...frozen glass relish tray with the olives, celery, carrots and pickled peppers.
re: Beach Chick
Bogarts Steakhouse in Homewood IL still does a relish tray, and it is excellent. :)
re: ri_foodie
This reminded me of something! A coworker used to make something for all the potlucks. The night before she would mix baby carrots, cauliflowerettes, celery sticks, cherry tomatoes and black olives. I think she drained most of the olive juice, but mixing everything and letting it sit in the fridge overnight mixed and married the flavors in the most delightful way! I still sometimes make a tupperware container of these mixed veggies and keep them in the fridge for days. (Avis Bodahl...you were the best!)
re: TomSwift
I love reading stories like ri foodie's and I really liked that film.
In Monte Rio, in west Sonoma County, CA, The Village Inn brings a lovely relish tray before dinner, with cornichons, baby corn, several types of pickled peppers, at least two kinds of olives, and I'm sure I'm forgetting some. I just love to munch on that with cocktails. My husband doesn't like anything pickled in brine, so I don't have to share at all! I agree, it's a lovely way to start the meal. They bring it along with the bread and butter. I do prefer that to bread and butter, and he loves bread and butter, so we're both happy!
The Far Western Tavern in Guadalupe, CA also serves an old fashioned relish tray
It's are a great idea that should come back. I found a multi section glass tray that would be perfect for it. Munching on pickles and other vegetables seems sure a lot healthier than sharing a basket of french fries.
Yes Virginia there is a Santa Claus, and there are still lots of relish trays.
Of the dishes I inherited from Mom, her relish tray is perhaps my most used and valued. It's made of heavy cut glass lead crystal, radiant like a diamond, and has sufficient mass that when pre-frozen it holds the cold for quite a while.
It goes to almost every potluck I attend, with it's six radial compartments filled with many of the pickled items mentioned above.
Every year at Thanksgiving I am tasked with the assembly of our relish tray. In a cut glass tray with compartments, I assemble dill pickles, gherkins, green olives with pimentos, black olives, and three kinds of celery - plain, stuffed with pimento cheese, and stuffed with pineapple cheese.
This year was the first when we nixed it, as no one ever ate from it. I'm sure this explains the demise of relish trays all around.
re: southerna
My sister is a relish tray fan - yes, she makes one every year for Thanksigiving and most years it's left untouched.
And, our favorite BBQ joint (Bear Bit in North Hills CA) still does the relish bowl of my childhood (a few carrots, sliced pickle, celery and hot peppers over a bowl of ice). This is the only place where I'll willingly eat raw carrots and celery in raw stick form.
I dunno if all branches do it, but the Oceanaire in Denver does it, with a little ramekin of pickled herring for good measure. Pretty cool. Only chain I can say I actively like.
re: Beach Chick
Celery and olives used to be an appetizer choice with the "complete dinner" at the neighborhood (Queens) restaurants my family would go to when I was a kid. I haven't seen one out for a long time. We have celery and olives at home for holidays.
But I've enjoyed this thread so much, I'm going to make a retro relish tray one for my next dinner party.
re: occula
My mom still calls them relish trays.

A North Carolina commission has granted $360,000 to a telehealth initiative in the northeastern portion of the state.
The North Carolina Health and Wellness Trust Fund Commission is funding a three-year program that will be administered through the Roanoke Chowan Community Health Center in Ahoskie, N.C. The program provides in-home monitoring and telehealth kiosks in churches, schools and senior centers.
The program launched in September with the placement of RemoteNurse telehealth systems in the homes of patients with cardiovascular disease and diabetes. WebVMC, a Conyers, Ga., company that offers virtual medical care solutions, developed the RemoteNurse system.
With RemoteNurse, a touch-screen monitor in the patient's home is attached to devices such as blood pressure monitors and glucometers. The system sends patient information to caregivers and clinicians on a Web site via telephone lines, cellular or high-speed connections such as cable or DSL.
"Physicians, caregivers and family members review patient information from any Internet-enabled device…using a Web browser over a [Secure Sockets Layer] connection," said Scott Sheppard, president and chief executive officer of WebVMC. SSL is an Internet security protocol.
This month, telehealth kiosks at local senior centers have been screening people for risk factors. The program will be extended to include a church and a middle school. Screening services are free of charge.
The program will be available to more than 40,000 residents in four counties: Bertie, Gates, Hertford and Northampton.

Book Description:Finally women can talk about what they used to only dream about.... Forbidden Flowers is Nancy Friday's second collection of sexual fantasies -- and it's even more explicit and outspoken than her original erotic masterpiece, My Secret Garden. The constant refrain from the legions of women across America who read My Secret Garden was, "Thank God I'm not the only one..." who had those wild, exciting erotic thoughts. With Forbidden Flowers, these women can yet again experience the exhilarating freedom that comes with the awareness and acceptance of their sexual selves.

January 13th in Los Angeles marked the beginning of award season with the annual Golden Globes Award Ceremony. Hosted by real-life best-friends and comic duo Tina Fey and Amy Poehler (wearing L'Wren Scott and Stella McCartney respectively), the ceremony was a culmination of talent, beauty, fashion and celebration. Win or lose, we all know the focus was on the dresses as they paraded down the red carpet. Who wore who? Who looked the best? Who looked the worst? We all wanted to know.

Of course there were winners with awards too, Ben Affleck had a hugely successful night, first with "Argo" sweeping the Motion Picture Drama Award then being presented with a Golden Globe for his Direction of "Argo", beating film-legend Quentin Tarantino who directed Django Unchained. In his acceptance speech, Ben Affleck cited his wife Jennifer Garner as his reason and motivation for success which, needless to say, brought a tear to our romantic eyes.

As the night went on, Les Miserables provided the foundation for Anne Hathaway and Hugh Jackman to accept the Actor and Supporting Actress Awards, as well as the film itself achieving the Motion Picture Musical/Comedy Golden Globe. One of our favourite winners was Adele, who took home the Golden Globe for the Original Song, Motion Picture for "Skyfall", the electric accompaniment to the latest James Bond film starring Daniel Craig who attended the ceremony with this wife Rachel Weisz. Her acceptance speech was moving, she dedicated her award to her newborn son saying that with him in her life she would never be devastated again. However, if we were to give an award for the acceptance speech of the night, it would have to go to Julianne Moore, who gave a very ambiguous speech hinting at her sexuality. Half coming-out, half telling everyone off for invading her privacy, we love her for speaking out and saying more than the average winner.

We don't even know where to start with the dresses. A flurry of couture walked the red-carpet, from Anne Hathaway in breath-taking Chanel to Kate Hudson looking golden in Sarah Burton for Alexander McQueen and Miranda Kerr in Zuhair Murad, the fashion was incredible. However, for every winner there must be a loser, and while we believe fashion is personal and can be expressed however the individual chooses, some prints and cuts are hard to justify. But here at Jules B we don't name and shame bad fashion, we celebrate great fashion. So, without further ado, let Jules B introduce you to our personal favourites.
We give you the winners of the Dress Category in this years Jules B Golden Globes…
Left: Jennifer Lopez in Zuhair Murad
Right: Jessica Alba in Oscar de la Renta
Emily Blunt in Michael Kors
Jennifer Lawrence in Christian Dior
Kate Hudson in Alexander McQueen
Michelle Dockery in Alexandre Vauthier
Taylor Swift in Donna Karan

PS: Style Tip! Jessica Alba, Julia Roberts and Gwyneth Paltrow have revealed their style secret for looking amazing at red carpet events. No, it isn't a diet, it isn't a £500 blow dry, it's Spanx! Slimming, sucking, sculpting and squeezing, the JulesB girls are going straight out to buy a pair of these miracle working Bridget Jones knickers which are all available at JulesB!

The Probability of Miracles by Wendy Wunder
The book The Probability of Miracles is about a girl named Campbell who has been plagued by cancer for seven years, and does not have much time left. The doctors have done everything they can, and, in a last-ditch effort to cure Cam, her mother moves Cam and her sister from Florida all the way to Promise, Maine, which has been dubbed a "miracle town." I thought the book had a good, strong plot, but, given its subject matter, I though it could have been a bit more insightful. It was a good story, but it taught no valuable lesson. All in all, it was an enjoyable read, and that's about it.

Welcome to "Buffy the Vampire Slayer." Teenager Buffy Summers has been chosen by mystical forces (as so often happens) and granted superhuman powers to defeat vampires and other monsters in the fictional town of Sunnydale, Calif. Her friends Willow and Xander and mentor Giles often assist in these exploits.
In "Hush," which originally aired Dec. 14, 1999, The Gentlemen steal everyone's voices — part of their larger evil plan. There are vampires and witches and monsters and an astonishing lack of cellphones. (It was that time when people had cellphones, but Hollywood wasn't sure what to do with them.) The 44-minute episode has about 17 minutes of dialogue.
Watch the first 26 minutes of "Hush." (You can watch the rest later. If you missed it in class, "Buffy" is available on Hulu and Netflix.) This "emergency" occurred before Pinterest, Twitter, Facebook or YouTube. (Blogs existed, but they weren't as prevalent as they are today.)
Imagine this situation happened here today, where we have Pinterest, Twitter, Facebook, YouTube and much more. Identify how and what you would communicate from three perspectives: As a journalist, as an emergency management agency and as yourself. What would you say or do? Where would you publish it? Each perspective should be at least 400 words. The assignment should be typed and is due before class April 11.
Just in case: Here's a list of common KPIs. Pick measurements that will mean the most to your organization. This is a basic list — your plan may require something not listed here or more complicated.
Create an outline. Follow the guidelines in the presentation above. This does not have to be formal — a bullet point outline is fine. Use information from previous assignments to identify your goal, target audience, strategies and tactics. Explain each of your tactics. Explain how you will measure success for each tactic. Due before class April 11.

Air Pollution Control
LouisvilleKY.gov Links
The presentations below were presented during the seminar series. APCD staff continue to present on these topics to groups around the community. If you are interested in having APCD come and speak to your group on one of these topics or other air quality related issues, please contact us at (502) 574-6000. Air Quality 101In this presentation, APCD Executive Director Lauren Anderson took an in-depth look at Louisville's past and present air quality challenges, the community's success in dealing with those challenges, and the new hurdles that lie ahead.
Managing Buildings and Grounds for Air QualityThis seminar focused on everyday activities and operations that contribute to air pollution, specifically the maintenance and operation of places of business. Engineers from the University of Louisville's Kentucky Pollution Prevention Center were on hand to discuss strategies for businesses, industries and other organizations to develop environmentally sustainable, cost-saving solutions for improved efficiency and emissions reductions.
Lawn Care for Cleaner AirThis presentation featured APCD's award-winning Lawn Care for Cleaner Air program where residents earn rebates for trading in gasoline-powered lawn equipment for more air-friendly electric or battery models. Details were also given on the air quality benefits of converting lawns to landscaped areas that require less mowing.
Idle Reduction Toolkit: Turn the Key for Cleaner FleetsDuring this seminar, APCD unveiled its Idle Free Louisville campaign Toolkit for Business, aimed at reducing vehicle idling in our community. The goal of the program is to debunk myths and educate businesses and residents about the health impacts and economic benefits of turning off an idling engine.
You and Your Car: The Key to Cleaner Air and Greater Fuel Efficiency Presenters from KAIRE-Kentuckiana Air Education focused on the connection between auto maintenance and fuel efficiency as it relates to air quality. The effort can both save money and helps us all breathe easier.
Commercial & Residential Energy EfficiencyRepresentatives from Louisville Gas and Electric educated business owners and residents on steps to save energy and improve the bottom line. APCD staff also explained the air quality benefits of energy savings.
It All Adds Up: A Guide to Air MonitoringMany people don't know about the sophisticated system of monitoring that measures just how clean Louisville's air has become. In this presentation, APCD's Air Monitoring chief looked at the pollutants the agency monitors, the ways it measures them, and how that's always changing in our community.
State of the AirIn the year's final seminar, APCD Executive Director Lauren Anderson looked back on a 2010 full of change in the air quality field. Among other things, she examined trends in air quality data, changes in pollution standards, and challenges for the future.

Publisher Comments:
A Ship of the Law travels the infinite enormity of space, carrying 82 young people: fighters, strategists, scientists; the Children. They work with sophisticated non-human technologies that need new thinking to comprehend them. They are cut off forever from the people they left behind. Denied information, they live within a complex system that is both obedient and beyond their control. They are frightened. And they are making war against entities whose technologies are so advanced, so vast, as to dwarf them. Against something whose psychology is ultimately, unknowably alien.

Great case to store googles....when using googles, my son stores his eyeglasses in it...very happy with purchase.
Handy gadget!
from San Diego CA
on 6/26/2014
I just purchased this after I had to replace my old favorite goggles because after three summers toting them to the pool they got too scratched up to use any more. This case doesn't take up a lot of extra space in my gear bag. It makes a good gift for a swimmer - I just bought some extras for the grandkids.
Well-made case
from Dallas, TX
on 4/26/2014
Well-made case with substantial, durable zipper. I swim daily and this case.keeps lenses scratch-free during transport. The Speedo Hydrospex Goggle fits into this TYR case. Highly recommend this one.
Works great!
from UT
on 4/21/2014
I don't zip it up all the way to allow air to flow in to dry out the goggles. I like the bright blue color. It makes it easier to see in my bag.
Love these TYR cases!
from Southern Oregon
on 4/6/2014
I have several of these cases for the many pairs of goggles I have. They're great; they're soft yet protective, and last a long time. These are the only cases I use for my goggles.
Great Case

The following items were purchased for my grandson's for summer 2014. They take swimming lessons all summer, and goggles are recommended pool wear. My 13 year old wears corrective lenses and loves these. And to keep them safe, we bought the goggle case. They love your products and I appreciate the savings and prompt delivery. Thank you!
keeps the goggles from scratching
from PORTSMOUTH, VA
on 10/18/2013
I do like this product. it keeps the goggles from getting scratched. I do wish it has a small mesh opening somewhere so that the goggles can dry out. They tend to still be wet when I use them the next day.
Great protection for my goggles
Yvonne V.
from Mechanicville, NY
on 10/11/2013
My goggles fit perfect in the case and I feel better knowing they are protected
