How Special Branch Spied on Animal Rights Movement
Since 2010 there have been revelations about police infiltration of protest groups. For over 40 years the state sanctioned the use of undercover police to gain intelligence on political activists, including animal rights campaigners.

Appearing normal counts for a lot in Presidential politics, which may explain the growing popularity of John Edwards. The longer with live with these characters, the more grating the seemingly odd ones become and the more we find ourselves just liking the most normal-seeming one, the one you wouldn't mind sitting around watching TV with. We kind of are sitting around watching TV with them, after all, as many of the best-loved TV personalities have realized. I remember in particular, Red Skelton ending his old TV show by saying something like "Thank you for inviting me into your living room."
Click on this link if you want to hear Red Skelton explain the Pledge of Allegiance: "Since I was a small boy, two states have been added to our country and two words have been added to the pledge of Allegiance.../UNDER GOD/Wouldn't it be a pity if someone said that is a prayer and that would be eliminated from schools too?"

Hailing from Buffalo, The Bird Day dispense a psychedelic form of electronica that is full of brash beats and baroque tunes. So whilst its body may be in Ibiza, it's head is in space.
'Chain Gang' is an appropriate way to start which offers a heady mix of sugary electronica and bright beats. Even so, 'We Taste Nothing' is a considerable step up in class. Dreamy, lighter than air harmonies weave in and out of the bouncy synths and if those voices are light then 'Steel Cloud' must be helium-powered; nevertheless the key changes are wondrously inventive. Likewise, 'Better Or Worse' features a teen-friendly chorus which is deep and unusual enough to grab the ears of a mature listener, whilst the title track is propelled by some sturdy New Order-style basslines and minty-fresh keyboard washes.
Like contemporaries M83 and Foster The People, The Bird Day seem to be making soundtracks for a young person's life. Yet the level of euphoria is given extra weight and meaning by a fine grasp of melody and a longing to escape which people of all ages will surely crave for from time to time.

What about Trac #3207? The issue there also applies to most of these, but maybe not the thaw/freeze ones.
If we want to keep Trac #3207 "fixed", then yes, I suppose we need this. But what makes the code in Trac #3207 better than my proposed implementation of unsafeInterleaveIO? Trac #3207 uses trace, which uses unsafePerformIO. Is there any particular reason users should expect it to behave well in optimized code? I'm not confident that Trac #3207 was a valid bug.
This doesn't seem to trip up the test for Trac #3207, so maybe it's safe now that lazy ST is fixed? Or maybe something else is preventing that test from going sideways?
Currently, there's a mismatch between the note on has_side_effects, which
says it should be False for read-only primops, and primops.txt.pp, which
makes it True for these. @simonmar, you changed this to "fix" a weird
interaction between lazy ST and trace. Even assuming that was a bug worth
fixing, it looks like something else may have fixed it another way since.
In any case, we definitely need to decide on one consistent story.
Currently, there's a mismatch between the note on has_side_effects, which says it should be False for read-only primops, and primops.txt.pp, which makes it True for these.
Ah, I see. Yes, the rationale in that Note makes sense to me, and it looks like has_side_effects on read-only primops should be removed.
@simonmar, you changed this to "fix" a weird interaction between lazy ST and trace. Even assuming that was a bug worth fixing, it looks like something else may have fixed it another way since.
Can you point to the relevant commits here?
This related to Trac #3207, as Reid mentioned. I'll have to go digging to find
the commit; it's not named in the ticket.
@simonmar, the relevant commit was 8a3ed3364fbc74b1f1b87b049737da2b251f92df. Is there some centralized place where we explain how all the hacks to make IO work fit together? Some is explained in the note on has_side_effects, and some is partially explained in the note on the I/O hack in the demand analyzer, but is there a coherent story somewhere? Speaking of the demand analyzer hack, that seems to handle things *other* than primops; it doesn't seem to handle primops right.
Ugh. No, there's no centralized place that describes these things as far as I know.
The comment I wrote in that commit seems to have been merged into the larger Note [PrimOp can_fail and has_side_effects] in PrimOp.hs (look for "Duplication"). A variant of the original example is there, and a reference to Trac #3207. So it seems like has_side_effects is still necessary to prevent duplication of read primops (in which case perhaps the Note should be made clearer on this point).
I'm not sure whether this is specific to the Lazy ST monad, or whether the problem can occur elsewhere. It seems like absent has_side_effects there's nothing preventing the simplifier from duplicating a read primop and thus reordering it relative to other things.
We should probably have the test case from Trac #3207 in the test suite (I'm not sure why I didn't add it before)
Well, we have the whole state token thing. Once that isn't in play,
everything goes totally wonky. It's very unclear to me what we're trying to
guarantee there. You did add a test case, I think; it's just in a weird
subdirectory: the code generator test suite.
We have the State# token yes, which enforces ordering of operations with respect to each other. So a read following a write will always occur in that order, as enforced by the state token passing.
However, the problem here (Trac #3207) is we have an operation that takes a State# as input, and returns a pair of two things: a new State# and a value. There's nothing preventing the compiler from doing this operation twice: once to get the value, and again to get the State#. And then we've lost the ordering, because the operation that returns the value does nothing with its State# output.
This whole thing needs to wait till we finish nailing down a good story behind has_side_effects and the strictness model(s) for IO and ST.

This story was first published Jan. 30, 2011. It was updated on June 27, 2011.
We name fancy cars and sports teams after them but precious few people have ever seen a jaguar in the wild. They don't live in the United States anymore and can only be found in the sweltering jungles and wetlands of Central and South America. But just try to find one.
As we first reported earlier this year, they hunt by night and sleep by day, comfortably concealed in thick, dark brush. It's because of their elusive nature, their power and their beauty that they've long been worshipped by tribes as demigods whose real home is a spiritual world, which man cannot even fathom.
But whichever world they frequent, they only emerge during the dry season when they go down to rivers to drink. So when it got dry and Alan Rabinowitz, the world's foremost authority on jaguars, invited us to go with him to some far flung wetlands in brazil, near the Bolivian border, we picked up the phone and booked our flights.
Bob Simon's wild kingdom
Veteran war reporter Bob Simon has a soft spot for threatened wildlife. Don't get him started on baby elephants...
We headed towards an unspoiled, remote area called the Pantanal, where the temperature rarely dipped below 115 degrees. We had to cross more than 125 rustic wooden bridges over dried up ponds and lakes, home to piranhas and caimans, cousins of the crocodile. It was good to be in a car.
We started our search for jaguars on the Cuiaba River with Alan Rabinowitz, the CEO of Panthera, a new conservation group. He told us that jaguars are very fast and have been known to kill people. It was good to be in a boat.
Rabinowitz has been studying the cats' migration routes and habitats in the jungle for 30 years. But he has gone months without seeing a single one. His advice to us: get lucky.
"It takes hours and hours of doing this because even when they're out there, it's almost [like a] needle in a haystack," he told correspondent Bob Simon. "Even though this is the densest, highest concentration of jaguars matching any place on Earth, there's still a limited number of jaguars here."

Extra: Manhattan Project for big cats
Extra: Survival tips from the Pantanal
But luck was a lady that day: it wasn't long before we caught our first glimpse - and it was just a glimpse - of a young jaguar, sitting on the river bank behind a fallen tree.
He was difficult to see, but Rabinowitz spotted him. "Its head is right there. Amazing, see it? You got it, it's beautiful. See it? Isn't that something? This gives you the real gut feel of the secretive nature of this animal," he said.
"There's no sign of defeat in its face," Rabinowitz added.
At dawn the next day, we went looking for jaguars again. One of our spotters tried to tempt the cats out of the jungle, but his simulated mating call just didn't do it.
But it might have appealed to anacondas. One anaconda we came across, according to the spotters, was nine feet long. Then we went up a small river that looked like an aquatic Garden of Eden - no jaguars there either, but an extraordinary assembly of birds and others creatures.
We saw a family of very rare giant river otters, basking in the sun after a morning of fishing and swimming. We saw the world's largest rodents, unflappable hundred pound capybaras, a favorite dish of jaguars. Jaguars like caimans as well, as we saw from evidence of past meals.
Photographer Steve Winter has been a jaguar groupie for years and was helping us look for the cats. He has shot what could be the finest jaguar portraits ever taken. They weren't easy to come by.
"I spent the first three months in the jungle and got a big fat zero," he remembered. "No cats."
Asked how he felt about his three-month jaguar dry spell, Winter told Simon, "I felt like my career was over."

Making New Year's resolutions is a time-honoured tradition. Often centered around things you want to change, move more, spend time more effectively, it also is a good time to take a step back and consider some of the areas where you can make a real difference both to your physical and mental health.
1 – Register to Be an Organ Donor:Two minutes can save a life. If you haven't already done so, take two minutes to register to be an organ donor www.beadonor.ca/kidneyfoundationofcanada and talk to your family about your wishes.
2 – Learn something new:Have you considered volunteering? You can make a difference in your community by giving of your time. From programs to public awareness to fundraising and administration, there is something for everyone. This may be the opportunity to learn a new skill or to use your experience to help others.
3 – Take Care of You by Sticking to the Renal Diet: It's easy for all of us, whether on a renal diet or not, to indulge over the holidays. For a dialysis patient though, those small indulgences can sure add up, so it's important to take control and spend some time planning your meals to get back on track. Visit kidneycommunitykitchen.ca for recipes and meal planning tips to help.
4 – Take Care of You and Keep MovingThe holidays can be a time of busy activities, or for some it is the quiet down time to sleep in, stay in your pajamas all day, but it's important to stay moving even when it's cold outside. If the weather is your excuse, consider a stroll at a local walking track or mall.
5– Plan an EventHave you ever thought of being an event planner? We can help, and you don't even need to go back to school. If you'd like to organize a small dinner party, a summer backyard carnival, a walk-a-dog-athon or even an online fundraising challenge, then we have the tools for you to become a Blue Builder and help build a stronger kidney community. Each year we are fortunate to have the support of people just like you organize and plan events on our behalf.

MediationDo you have a legal problem that you would prefer to keep private?
Would you like a resolution without delay?
Is reducing your expense to resolve this problem important to you?
Mediation may be the answer!
The traditional adversarial method of resolving a legal dispute usually involves: Hiring of legal counsel for each party at $200 to $300 per hour. Each party taking extreme positions in an attempt to create the "perfect case" Each party to the action becomes entrenched in their respective positions now that it is part of a public record and they have a significant emotional and financial investment in the position. Significant effort and expense is then required to be expended by each opponent to dismantle the other party's case and establish the other as untruthful. Denial and frustration set in and counsel decide that a trial is necessary. A trial date is set about 8 to 12 months into the future. The parties settle the case when a trial is imminent and they can no longer tolerate the emotional and financial strain. Occasionally, a trial does occur and a judge imposes a decision on the parties after making an assessment of who is believable, and in accordance with established rules of procedure, rules of law, and his or her own biases and perceptions.
What is mediation?
- Mediation is a constructive non-adversarial solution-focused method used to resolve disputes.
- It can help reduce the time, anxiety and expense of finding answers and implementing solutions.
- Mediation provides you with an opportunity to meet with the person you are having a dispute with in a safe and confidential environment.
- It overcomes barriers rather than creating them.
The Benefits of Mediation vs. Adversarial Method
- Many studies of this method have concluded that Mediation has a high rate of success and that the majority of parties viewed the resulting settlement as fair.
- Mediation is much faster, with results being achieved in less than 60 days.
- Costs are significantly reduced.
- Confidentiality is guaranteed in writing. Your dispute is not a matter of public record as in court proceedings.
- The participants remain in control rather than giving away control over important decisions to lawyers and judges.
- Solutions are often more creative than the orthodox approach used by courts.
- Relationships are more often preserved rather than harmed by this process.
- Stress and anxiety are significantly reduced. It is sometimes seen as therapeutic by the participants.
- Mediation can help meet emotional needs by clearing communication and implementing solutions that cannot be "ordered" by a judge.
A party to a mediated dispute can withdraw at any time if they feel the process or the mediator isn't working for them. Courts do not permit this.
The Ontario government is now promoting Mediation as the answer. On January 4th, 1999, the Province of Ontario instituted a pilot project in the Toronto and Ottawa courthouses. This project required certain types of cases to be mediated early on in the adversarial process. The results are so promising that the project was expanded to other courts and to other types of matters.
Windsor's court is participating in the Mandatory Mediation program with respect to civil and estate matters. Robert M. Jutras has been a member of the Essex County Courthouse Roster of Mediators since the program was initiated in 2002.

By LawReader Senior Editor Stan Billingsley                      March 29, 2011
 When this author was in law school, some 40 years ago, we heard many stories about the old Code Pleading Rules  and how the new rules of procedure were designed to cut out many highly technical rules that made criminal and civil rules minefields designed more to entrap litigants and their attorneys then to assure a fair trial for litigants.
  We seem to recall a prior version of the Civil Rules which said something to the effect that the most important rule was to "do justice". That Rule is no longer included in the Civil or Criminal Rules…why we don't know.
We find remnants of that prior policy in the current Criminal Rules:
"A. Introduction
1. Derivation and scope"…many improvements universally desired had been unattainable because of rigid requirements of a practice designed more to implement technical concepts than to promote the interests of justice."
  In a recent case (NO. 2009-CA-000895-MR cited in full below) the Court of Appeals upheld a dismissal of a case on highly technical grounds. We note that the litigant was severely punished due to the negligence of his attorney.
We don't argue with the authority or legal correctness of the majority's decision, but we would suggest that a greater rule should be applied, that is the job of the court's to "promote the interests of justice."Â
Judge Thompson's dissent appears to be a call to the Ky. Supreme Court to change the application of CR 77.02 to elevate the "interests of justice" over the rigid  technical application the majority found was applicable.
The majority reasoned:
( counsel)… failed) to notify the circuit court that he had changed his mailing address and, as a result, his failure to receive the court's sua sponte notice to show cause why the action should … be dismissed for lack of prosecution pursuant to CR 77.02(2)," Â
  Civil Rule 77.02 is the rule judges use annually to clean up their dockets of inactive cases. The plaintiff's attorney says he didn't receive his copy of a notice from the court due to his address having changed and the letter was not forwarded to him. When he tried to refile the case the trial court held that the Statute of Limitations was tolled. The Court of Appeals upheld the trial court.
Judge Kelly Thompson dissented from this decision.
"…CR 77.02(2) dismissals result in the deprivation of the litigant's right to be heard on the merits and because of the applicable statute of limitations, the right to file a second complaint is frequently illusory."
"The passage of time alone should not be the sole factor when deciding to terminate a litigant's right to seek redress in the courts. Rather than imposing such a harsh result on the litigant, it would be more appropriate to sanction the attorney.
For the reasons expressed, I would reverse the circuit court's order and remand the case for further proceedings so that this litigant can receive the justice to which he is entitled."
 Judge Thompson's dissent in effect proves the truth of the statement in the Criminal Rules that "rigid requirements of  practice … (rules are) designed more to implement technical concepts than to promote the interests of justice."
   We respectfully suggest to our Appellate courts that there should be more concern for the consumers of legal services. If the attorney made an error, we suggest like Judge Thompson that he should be punished appropriately, but the harsh penalty of a dismissal on technical grounds cases a potential harm to the original plaintiff that paints a picture of the courts not being focused on seeing that the "right thing be done".
Commonwealth of Kentucky Court of Appeals
v. HONORABLE DAVID A. TAPP, JUDGE
** ** ** ** **
MOORE, JUDGE: Larry Honeycutt appeals an order of the Pulaski Circuit Court
dismissing his complaint pursuant to Kentucky Civil Rule (CR) 77.02(2) for claims
arising under the Federal Liabilities Act, 45 U.S.C. §51, et seq.; the Locomotive
Inspection Act, 49 U.S.C. §20707, et seq.; and the Federal Rail Safety Act of 1970,
49 U.S.C. §20101, et seq.
The complaint alleged that while in Norfolk Southern Railway Company's employ, Honeycutt sustained injuries to his neck, shoulder, and back. The issue presented is whether counsel's failure to notify the circuit court that he had changed his mailing address and, as a result, his failure to receive the court's sua sponte notice to show cause why the action should not be dismissed for lack of prosecution pursuant to CR 77.02(2), warranted that the order dismissing be set aside pursuant to CR 60.02.
Concluding that the trial court did not abuse its discretion in dismissing Honeycutt's complaint, we affirm.
Honeycutt filed his complaint in Pulaski Circuit Court on April 2,
2007. The complaint was signed only by attorney Mark T. Wade, who is licensed
to practice law in Kentucky and Pennsylvania. Attorney Wade listed his mailing
address on the complaint as 521 Cedar Way, Suite 200, Oakmont Station, Building
5, Oakmont, Pennsylvania. No other attorneys or addresses were listed or noted on
the complaint, and no other attorneys entered an appearance on behalf of
Honeycutt. We note that at no time did Attorney Wade ever move the court to
withdraw as counsel.
Within a month of the filing of the complaint, Norfolk Southern filed
an answer and motion to dismiss on April 24, 2007. The only attorney listed as
counsel for Honeycutt on Norfolk Southern's certificate of service was Wade, at
his Oakmont address. Presumably, either Wade received the answer and motion to
dismiss at his Oakmont address; or if he had moved his office within a month of
filing the complaint on Honeycutt's behalf, his mail was forwarded by United
States Postal Service to his new address.
The case was dormant after Norfolk Southern filed its answer and
motion to dismiss, with over a year elapsing without any pretrial steps taken in the
action. Then, on August 5, 2008, the trial court filed a notice to show cause why
the action should not be dismissed for lack of prosecution. The notice was mailed
to Wade at the address he listed on the complaint, which was the only address the
court had for him.
However, at some point Wade had relocated to Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. Apparently by this time the mail forwarding with the United States Postal Service had expired; consequently, the notice was returned to the circuit court clerk stamped: "Return to Sender,†"Not Deliverable as Addressed,†and "Unable to Forward.â€
When no one appeared on behalf of Honeycutt at the hearing, an order
dismissing for lack of prosecution was rendered on September 26, 2008. The order
was also mailed to Wade at his Oakmont office, which was also returned to the
court clerk.
Nearly six months later, Wade filed a motion on behalf of Honeycutt
to set aside the September 26, 2008, order citing as grounds that: (1) he did not
receive actual notice of motion to dismiss and resultant order and, therefore, the
order was void; (2) the order was the result of mistake, inadvertence and/or
excusable neglect and should have been set aside pursuant to CR 60.02(a); and (3)
that CR 60.02(f) justified relief based on the extraordinary circumstances of the
At the hearing on the motion to set aside the order, Wade explained
that prior to filing the complaint, an Alabama attorney represented Honeycutt and
had engaged Norfolk Southern in settlement negotiations. Subsequently, the
Alabama attorney requested that Wade negotiate on behalf of Honeycutt. Wade
did so and sent a settlement package to Norfolk Southern's claims agent. The
attempt at settlement failed, and accordingly Wade filed the complaint on behalf of
According to Wade after the complaint was filed, Norfolk Southern's
claims agent ceased settlement negotiations and insisted that Norfolk Southern deal
exclusively with the Alabama attorney. Wade maintained that he and the Alabama
attorney then had a miscommunication, each believing that the other was
representing Honeycutt. However, the Alabama attorney did not sign the
complaint nor enter an appearance on Honeycutt's behalf at any point in this
litigation; Wade did. Additionally, Wade took no action to correct any confusion
regarding who was handling Honeycutt's case despite the fact that Norfolk
Southern's answer and motion to dismiss, filed within a month of the complaint,
listed him alone as counsel for Honeycutt. And, Wade took no steps to withdraw
as counsel.
In ruling on Honeycutt's motion, the circuit court found that the tenday
limitation contained in CR 59.05 precluded relief under that rule.
Consequently, if relief was available, it must be pursuant to CR 60.02, specifically
subsection (a) or (f). The court rejected relief based on CR 60.02(a) and the
contention that the order was entered as result of mistake, surprise, or excusable
neglect and, therefore, focused on the remaining subsection, CR 60.02(f). Finding
that there was no "extraordinary reason†to justify relief, it denied relief. Finally,
relying on an unpublished opinion by this Court, Coleman v. El-Mallakh, 2008 WL
899805 (Ky.App. April 4, 2008),1 the circuit court found that actual notice was not
required under CR 77.02(2) and that the order was not otherwise void. Based on
our review, the trial court did not abuse its discretion in its ruling.
Honeycutt's initial contention is that the order of dismissal is void
because he did not actually receive the notice to show cause as required by CR
77.02(2), which provides:
At least once each year trial courts shall review all
pending actions on their dockets. Notice shall be given
to each attorney of record of every case in which no
pretrial step has been taken within the last year, that the
case will be dismissed in thirty days for want of
prosecution except for good cause shown. The court
shall enter an order dismissing without prejudice each
case in which no answer or an insufficient answer to the
notice is made.
This is a housekeeping rule, within the wide discretion of the trial court, intended
to expedite the removal of stale cases from the court's docket. Hertz Commercial
Leasing Corporation v. Joseph, 641 S.W.2d 753 (Ky.App. 1982).
As noted supra, the trial court relied on an unpublished opinion,
Coleman v. El-Mallakh, 2008 WL 899805, which we find to be persuasive
1 The circuit court properly cited to and relied upon Coleman, an unpublished case, pursuant to
authority in this case and proper to cite as it fulfills the criteria of CR 76.28(4). In
Coleman at *3, this Court held that where a statute requires actual notice to be received by a party, it is then incumbent upon the party whose duty it is to give that notice to
see that the notice is actually received by the party entitled to notice.
We do not believe that the language in CR 77.02(2) can be construed
to require that actual notice be received by each attorney of record
before the court may proceed with dismissing a case for want of
Clearly, the method contemplated for service of the notice is the same
as that required for the service of the order dismissing a case under the
rule, that being service shall be made by mail in the manner provided
in CR 5. CR 77.04(1). Specifically, CR 5.02 provides for service
upon the attorney of record by mailing a copy of the notice to the
attorney at his last known address and that service by mail is complete
upon mailing.
(Citations omitted).
In Coleman, we pointed out that because hundreds of cases are
disposed under this rule each year, it is simply not feasible to place the onerous
burden on our circuit clerks to personally ensure that every attorney of record
receive actual notice that the case may be dismissed for lack of prosecution absent
a showing of good cause. We agree with the language in Coleman stating that "we
know of no authority in Kentucky that would impose a duty upon circuit clerks to
track down attorneys who have moved their offices without giving notice to the
court in order for the court to satisfy the notice provision of CR 77.02(2).†Id., at
We further agree with the trial court that the circumstances of this
case do not fulfill CR 60.02(a)'s requirement of mistake, inadvertence, surprise or
neglect. If there was inadvertence, it was not at the hands of the court. And,
Honeycutt's rationale for setting aside the judgment does not fall into the category
of an "extraordinary reason†to justify relief under CR 60.02(f). "[T]he conduct of
an attorney is generally not a ground for relief under CR 60.02 (f).†Id. at *5
(citing Vanhook v. Stanford-Lincoln Co. Rescue Squad, Inc., 678 S.W.2d 797
(Ky.App. 1984); Brozowski v. Johnson, 179 S.W.3d 261 (Ky.App. 2005)). As in
Coleman, the result is harsh for the appellant. But, as this Court stated in Coleman
at *5, "we can find no authority that holds a harsh result constitutes an
extraordinary reason to justify relief under CR 60.02.†Accordingly, we affirm.
Respectfully, I dissent. I believe that the majority's strict enforcement of a technical rule usurps the public policy that the court is to decide cases on their merits with a fair opportunity for the litigants to be heard.
I disagree that the unpublished case, Coleman v. El-Mallakh, 2008
WL 899805 (Ky.App. 2008), is persuasive.
To the extent that the case stands for the proposition that our court clerks cannot personally ensure that every attorney of record receives actual notice of a CR 77.02(2) dismissal hearing, I agree. However, in Coleman, the motion was presented pursuant to CR 60.02(f) and filed more than one year after the judgment. The Court emphasized the case may have
been resolved differently "under CR 60.02(a) had the matter been brought to the
circuit court's attention within one year of entry of the order of dismissal.†Id. at 5.
In contrast, Honeycutt filed his CR 60.02 motion within one year after
the order of dismissal without prejudice was entered and, therefore, was timely
under CR 60.02(a). Although the Court set aside a default judgment rather than a
CR 77.02 order, I believe Bargo v. Lewis, 305 S.W.2d 757 (Ky. 1957), is
controlling. In Bargo, a Lexington attorney requested a Barbourville attorney to
secure an extension of time to answer a complaint. After the Barbourville attorney
mistakenly failed to file an answer, a default judgment was entered. The Court
held that the default judgment was properly set aside under CR. 60.02(a) on the
basis of inadvertence or excusable neglect. Id. at 758. Under the circumstances
now presented, I believe justice requires the same result.
I also believe that this case presents an opportunity to establish a
reasonable and just standard when CR 77.02(2) is invoked.
Although CR 77.02(2) is a dismissal without prejudice that theoretically permits the complaint to be refiled, minimally, a year has elapsed since the first complaint was filed and most probably the statute of limitations has expired. Therefore, a dismissal without
prejudice has the identical consequences as a dismissal with prejudice pursuant to
Our Supreme Court has reexamined the applicable standard when
determining whether to dismiss for lack of prosecution pursuant to CR 41.02. In
Jaroszewski v. Flege, 297 S.W.3d 24 (Ky. 2009), the Court held that the trial court
is required to consider all relevant factors which may include those listed in Ward
v. Housman, 809 S.W.2d 717 (Ky.App. 1991). Id. at 34.
Trial courts must make explicit findings on the record so that the parties and appellate courts will be properly apprised of the basis for the trial court's rulings; and the appellate courts can assess whether the trial court properly considered the totality of the circumstances in dismissing the case. Id. at 36.
I am aware that in Jaroszewski, the Court noted a distinction between
CR 41.02 dismissals and CR 77.02(2) dismissals; specifically, that the latter is a
dismissal without prejudice. I reiterate that while a legally correct distinction, as a
practical matter, CR 77.02(2) dismissals result in the deprivation of the litigant's
right to be heard on the merits and because of the applicable statute of limitations, the right to file a second complaint is frequently illusory.
I am perplexed that a CR 41.02 dismissal is subject to a totality of the
circumstances standard but that a CR 77.02(2) dismissal is not subject to the same standard. I
ndeed, a complex case such as the current often sits idle for a year as a
result of negotiations and preliminary investigations; yet, the case can be dismissed
to serve the purpose of managing the court's docket.
Although the courts certainly have such power inherently and by virtue of CR 77.02(2), this power must be secondary to the primary purpose of our judicial system to provide meaningful dispute resolution on the merits. Therefore, I urge our Supreme Court to espouse standards applicable to CR 77.02(2) dismissals similar to those applied to CR 41.02 dismissals.
In this case, the circuit court abused its discretion when it refused to
set aside the CR 77.02(2) motion.
Although the attorney failed to notify the court that he changed his address, after learning of the dismissal, he promptly filed a CR 60.02 motion. There was absolutely no evidence that Norfolk Southern was prejudiced by the inactivity in the case, no evidence as to the reason for the inactivity, the merits of the claim, or any other circumstances that would justify the dismissal of this complex litigation.
The passage of time alone should not be the sole factor when deciding to terminate a litigant's right to seek redress in the courts. Rather than imposing such a harsh result on the litigant, it would be more appropriate to sanction the attorney.
For the reasons expressed, I would reverse the circuit court's order and remand the case for further proceedings so that this litigant can receive the justice to which he is entitled.

McCollum v. Garrett, 880 S.W.2d 530 (Ky., 1994)
CR 8.06 requires that "All pleadings shall be so construed as to do substantial justice." This rule, sometimes called a "liberal construction" rule, requires that a pleading be judged according to its substance rather than its label or form. To construe this pleading as a claim against the defendants in their official capacity would result in the claim being barred. To construe it as an individual capacity claim permits the litigation to proceed toward the merits, a goal we have expressly embraced in other contexts. Ready v.

New Year's resolutions. Love 'em or hate 'em? Either way, I bet you don't achieve them.
I say that with confidence because research shows only 9% of people achieve their resolutions. So statistically, it's a safe bet that you didn't achieve your goals this year.

BUT… the good news is you can change that for 2018. If you act now.
Friends I'm incredibly excited to tell you about my new baby – The Change Challenge – that is the culmination of 9 years' work and a life-long passion for learning, coaching and storytelling.
This project (finally!!) came to life this year off the back of the untimely passing of a dear friend who was a true inspiration, and an incredible support when I first made the transition from Corporate to coaching. Her passing was followed shortly after by that of another wonderful friend, who had so much to live for and he yet could not.
Seeing these lives cut short, in their prime, made me realise: if not now, when? It was time to get my s*it together and get on with delivering this program. And so The Change Challenge was born.
My hope is this program will give you the confidence, courage and capacity to realise your full potential, so you can eventually leave this planet with no "I-wish-I-hads".
So what is The Change Challenge?
The Change Challenge is a fun, fast-paced, fact-based and completely FREE program I've designed to help you set and achieve your goals for 2018.
So if next year is the year that you plan to
- TRANSITION to a new role
- expand your professional NETWORKS
- re-evaluate your RELATIONSHIPS
- overcome niggling CHALLENGES
- make a CAREER COMEBACK
- START your own business
- grow your BUSINESS to the next level
- take control of your FINANCES
- lose weight, get fit or get MORE OUT OF LIFE
- or embark on any other BIG, HAIRY, AUDACIOUS GOAL…
Then the time to start work on your goal is NOW, and the tool that will get you there is The Change Challenge.
I've created The Change Challenge because I've seen too many people fail to realise their full potential, through a lack of time, resources, connections, inspiration or discipline. And because I've seen the transformation that is possible when these obstacles are removed.
As an IECL certified Executive Coach, who has delivered coaching and professional development to over 1,000 individuals, I know how to get the very best out of people. And I would love to see you perform to your very best, and achieve exactly what you desire, over the course of the year ahead and on every single day of the rest of your life.
So how does it work?
The Change Challenge is a FREE year-long coaching program, delivered online and direct to your in-box. And it's available to anyone serious about achieving the very best out of LIFE, by delivering to their very best at WORK.
Each week, I'll guide you through a series of actions, all about identifying and implementing the change you need to make, in order to be the VERY BEST you can be.
I'll provide the tips and tools that will help in structuring your thinking, planning your actions, and measuring your progress. So you can simply get on with the DOING.

1971 Volkswagen Type III Squareback F.I. 1.6
A good classic daily driver/ resto car
Bolt fell into fan shroud, causing loud buzzing noise. Engine had to be removed and tin taken off to remove bolt.
Over the years several wires have had to be repaired, replaced or reconnected, especially those wires in the Fuel Injection system.
The Manifold Pressure Sensor recently failed, probably due to a spin out which the car did (that is a known problem with D-Jetronic engines, spin outs hurt their MPSes). Whole fuel injection system was replaced with Dual Carburetors from 1967 type III (dual Solex 32 PDSITs).
General Comments:
Car drives far better than a Volkswagen Beetle.
Very comfortable interior for a car of its era, has good ventilation and heating system.
Gets excellent gas mileage.
Handles very well for an older station wagon and is not as prone to oversteer as earlier Volkswagens.
Fuel Injection system allows the engine to start and run beautifully, like a car from the 1990s not like a early 1970s car.
High back seats are quite comfortable.
Has decent performance for an older Volkswagen, cruises at 84 miles and hour.
Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? Yes
Review Date: 25th February, 2004
22nd Dec 2004, 11:57
You say the fuel injection system allows the car to start and run beautifully, yet you replaced yours with carburetors?
26th Nov 2005, 06:07
Aparently a lot of mechanics change the cars over to carberetors because they simply don't understand the old VW fuel injection systems, and usually VW purists hate them for it.
10th Dec 2008, 18:41
It might not make sense to some. But converting back to carburetors makes sense considering that nobody makes parts for the old Fuel Injection system anymore. The F.I. System is not as durable or long lasting as a simple, straightforward carburetor.
29th Jan 2009, 10:06
The electrical parts and wiring may not hold up as well as carbs, but there certainly aren't problems with the mechanical parts. There's also a growing crowd of enthusiasts of pre-OBD cars that want to keep them running, so there's a growing aftermarket offering a computer update to OBD II control systems. Ask around, you'll find them.

Subscribe To Denzel Washington To Be The Equalizer Updates
I've already subscribed
The past few years, Denzel Washington has settled into a groove of mid-range action thrillers where his husky voice and bursting bravado lend plenty of pop to the otherwise uninspired ventures. So it's little wonder Sony's chosen this dynamic leading man to front their next proposed franchise The Equalizer, inspired by the 1980s TV series.
Edward Woodward starred in the original as Robert "The Equalizer" McCall, a private investigator whose no-nonsense attitude and passion for justice made him the go-to for scores of people in trouble. Deadline reports that Richard Wenk, who co-wrote The Expendables 2 with Sylvester Stallone, has given The Equalizer a fresh new take that better encompasses Washington's niche for playing brooding loners who loathe injustice. Though the description of an outsider who throws himself in harm's way for the good of society makes The Equalizer sound like a western, the film will more likely follow in the less reserved genre conventions of bold action thrillers.
Sony is eager to get this wannabe franchise rolling, and so have selected an April 8th 2013 date for the start of production, and are in final negotiations to sign Washington for "his customary $20 million price." While top names can still pull down such a fee, it seems exorbitant when the entire budget of The Equalizer is projected to be around $50 million, which is $35 million less than his last thriller Safe House.
With only $30 million to play with elsewhere, Sony is pursuing buzzed about directors who have delivered plenty of punch on a leaner budget. Currently rumored are Pierre Morel (Taken, estimated budget of $25 million), Nicolas Winding Refn (Drive, estimated budget of $15 million), Gavin O'Connor (Warrior, estimated budget of $25 million) and Gareth Evans (The Raid: Redemption, estimated budget of $1.1 million). Even with a leaner budget, if Sony can snag any of the helmers on this wish list, The Equalizer will be in great hands.

London: Michael Vaughan, the former England captain says Kevin Pietersen knows what he needs to do to shut-up his critics among the crowds in South Africa - score hundreds.
South Africa-born Pietersen made his name as an international player under Vaughan's leadership by scoring three hundreds during the one-day leg of England's tour of South Africa in 2004-05.
"It's just like the Ricky Ponting situation in the summer: the more you talk about it, the more it happens," said Vaughan as he reflected on the rough ride the Australia captain got from some home fans during the course of England's Ashes series win earlier this year.
"The way to deal with it is exactly how Kev dealt with it last time, when he reeled off three hundreds," Vaughan added.
Pietersen started off the 2004-05 series being booed mercilessly by home fans, angered by his change of allegiance which the batsman controversially attributed to his being denied opportunities in South Africa because of a quota system designed to advance the progress of non-white cricketers.
England's current tour of South Africa has again seen Pietersen cast as a kind of "pantomime villain" by some home fans but, unlike five years ago he has so far struggled for runs.
Returning from the Achilles injury which sidelined him from most of the Ashes, Pietersen has so far managed scores of four, 45 and three in the ongoing one-day series which England lead 2-1 with one to play.
"Because KP is so famous we are making a big story out of it," said Vaughan.
"He is probably a bit desperate to get a score and that can have its effect on your game.
"But the real positive for England is that they are winning matches without him contributing.
"When he does that will add another 15 percent to the team and that will take us to a really good level.
"Kevin has got such a good eye for the ball and has scoring areas which people dream about. He just has to try to be as positive as he can."
Meanwhile Vaughan was encouraged by the way another South Africa-born batsman Jonathan Trott, whose loyalties he'd previously queried by saying he'd been celebrating with South Africa following their series-clinching win at Edgbaston some 16 months ago, and ex-Ireland batsman Eoin Morgan were becoming key members of the one-day top-order.
"Jonathan Trott is going to be 'Mr Consistent' for England," said Vaughan. "I have been really impressed with him so far.
"As for Eoin Morgan, I think he is the player that England have been looking for for the last 15 years.
"He reminds me so much of Neil Fairbrother (the former Lancashire and England left-hander who was best known as a one-day batsman), and he has got that six-hitting ability to go with it."

Is there any mom who doesn't want to take pictures of her baby's growing nice time? I'm sure there is no!
The question is if everyone does it well, sometimes we take pictures and then become nervous because they don't look good enough. It could make us sad, right? Actually, there is no magic in taking beautiful photos, it is quite simple for everyone, you should just know some tips to depict your sweety's lifetime the best moments.
- First of all be patient! Sometimes our baby doesn't have mood for smiling on a camera or is not accustomed yet to the camera's light. No need to push him to do anything. Just wait for a better moment. You should learn together, day by day. It will work with time.
- Keeping child's favorite toys/stuff around. Having favorite subjects around makes kids feel free and happy. Moreover, it takes their attention and you can do nice shoots while your baby plays.
- Use photo apps and photo redactors. There are many various applications which could help you to have amazing photos even if you are not an experienced baby photo taker. Some of them are paid (like Baby Pics+ ), others are free. One of the quite useful and good apps is the Baby Photo App (download it for free from Google Play). It has different options and tools to re-edit your pics from ordinary to special, cool filters, creative artworks, an opportunity add own texts and even sharing directly to social media. As a result, no one will know these are your first photography steps actually .
- Taking pictures of baby's body parts. Sometimes we can get a nice photo of the infant's whole body but t not catch a nice facial expression. Don't worry. There is a solution. Just keep a part of the photo you like more: baby's fingers, feet, ears, etc. Separately they also look very cute.
- Using white & black pictures. One more trick to make your pictures look more professional as black and white kind of distracts people's attention from some small details behind. Besides, it is just beautiful. Don't use this option too often to keep photos' uniqueness and brightness.
- Prepare background and add some details.. This could be simple stuff you have, like one color blankets which look quite good as a background. You can add some details on the ready picture via photo redactors (texts, artworks, emojis, etc)
- It is more easy to do photo shooting when your baby is happy, fed, feels comfortable (like not wrapped too tight), had a good sleep before, etc.
- Find right angles! All people look nice from one angle, and from another they can look very unnatural or even ugly. The same for Just experiment and find the right side to take pictures from.
- Light is also important! That's why pictures, which are taken outside, mostly look nicer, you can also use lamps for making photos at home.
Of course, don't forget to save pictures you made! Go ahead and Have a great photo shooting experience!

COWS all want Woodside to be wooded but the fines for wrongful tree removal are beyond belief. The most recent notable fine was for $212,500 which the Town received after Council denied the appeal of the fine for non-permitted tree removal on a lot. That's a lot of moo-la!!
The question now is what is the appropriate use of these funds? At the July 12 Council meeting, Grant Huberty, Planning Commission Vice Chair, suggested using the funds for chipping, Defensible Space matching fund, or SODS (Sudden Oak death) programs. Also discussed were safety oriented issues like bridge projects, or putting it into general fund for the chipper program or for the beautification of the Town, solar panels on Town Hall or create a new community space, where citizens can get together. It seems to us that the funds should not be used for capital projects such as solar for Town hall or even bridges which should be planned and budgeted at all of our expense. Instead these funds should go to tree related projects such as the SOD programs, beautification including tree planting, the chipper program, or tree and shrub related fire protection programs.
Irrespective of how the money is spent, we are troubled by the process by which it is obtained. First of all the appeals do not appear to be decided based on any articulated COWncil policy. We have seen many times when COWncil has granted appeals and significantly reduced these large fines. How are they deciding who must pay the full fine and who pays a reduced fine? The COWncil should do a review and see what the history of the fines paid has been including fines not appealed, fines where the appeal is denied and fines which are reduced and by how much.
The second concern is that if expenditures are set up based on having extra cash for things that are sorely needed and wanted but for which General Fund money is not available, isn't it likely to influence the outcome of these appeals before they are even he-rd?
Our third is that there needs to be periodic reminders to COWs as to what can be done without a permit and when permits are needed. Most COWs tend to think of the trees as theirs to do with what they like. The rules are not intuitive. Perhaps an annual mailer reminder mailer with to every household reminding them that trees cannot be cut without permit. Also perhaps adopt an ordinance requiring that every real estate deal in the town must come with a tree information handout.
We understand that we have to have a way to stop the non-permitted removal of trees. This is very important especially now that we have lost so many trees to SOD. We just want the process to be fair and equal.

Many architectural glass suppliers believe that double glazed anti reflective glass when laminated, help regulate the temperature inside the household by creating a balance. The glass that is used in modern architecture helps control the loss of heat from the household and heat gain that can help maintain the right temperature inside during the summer as well as during the winter.

I've been eagerly waiting this moment.
Today, I got to do some wrench turning again in the garage. It was almost therapeutic because thankfully nothing went wrong. Here is my bike.
Here is my bike after only an hour's worth of work.
Abdicating the nonessentials.
I posted those parts up yesterday on a local Motorcycle forum, and had someone message me about them. He and his friend came by before I was finished disassembling everything to check it out. We agreed on the price, and they were picked up again later in the day. Very awesome I was able to offload this stuff right away.
The project has started, stay tuned as I go.

Dental Bridges – Filling in Toothless Areas
How healthy your gums and teeth are is the result of how you cared for them in the past; keeping them healthy requires regular brushing and eating teeth-whitening food plus regular visits to your dentist. But what with regard to gums that not are so healthy and gaps due to missing tooth or teeth? This is where a cosmetic dentist can help.
Cosmetic dentistry is dental work aimed at improving the appearance of you gums and teeth. Procedures included in this area of dentistry include:
- Making teeth whiter through bleaching;
- Gum depigmentation;
- Addition of dental materials to teeth or gums, such as porcelain veneers, gum grafts or crowns;
- Reshaping of teeth which do not match the others;
- Removal of tooth structure or gums like in enameloplasty and gingivectomy; and,
- Closing of gaps between teeth.
One procedure that is most beneficial to those with missing teeth is dental bridges – these are actually false teeth that are fused between a couple of porcelain crowns, filling in toothless area. Also known as pontics, dental bridges are used to replace missing tooth/teeth. Dental bridges also help lessen threats of gum disease and improve speech. These can last ten years or more, depending on the care given to them.
Bridges fill places where a tooth previously was and they are to prevent shifting of the teeth, which can cause bite and jaw problems (occlusions) and periodontal disease. Bridges can protect existing teeth's integrity to keep a healthy smile.
There are three types of Bridges, namely:
- Fixed Bridge. This is the most popular type of bridge. In this procedure, a filler tooth is attached to two crowns over existing teeth to hold it in place.
- "Maryland" Bridge. This type of bridge is meant to replace missing front teeth. A filler is attached to metal bands which are bonded to the abutment teeth; these metal bands match existing tooth color with a composite resin.
- Cantilever Bridge. This type of bridge is used when there are only teeth on one side of the span. A three-unit cantilever bridge has 2 crowns next to each other on the same side as the missing tooth. The filler tooth connects to the crowned teeth.
A bridge may be done directly in a patient's mouth or out-of-the mouth. A bridge can be made from gold, porcelain or porcelain-covered metal; it is made to fit a patient's mouth naturally, casting an appearance of a complete set of teeth.
According to the Oral Health Foundation, your appearance is one reason why you should replace missing teeth. Another is that the gap left by a missing tooth can mean more strain is put on the teeth at either side. A gap can also mean your 'bite' is affected, because the teeth next to the space can lean into the gap and change the way the upper and lower teeth bite together. This can then lead to food getting packed into the gap, which causes tooth decay and gum disease.

Lincoln fish and chip shop named as best in region
Burton Road Chippy in Lincoln has been named as the top fish and chip shop in Lincolnshire, Rutland, Nottinghamshire and Leicestershire as part of the 2017 National Fish & Chip Awards.
Competing to be crowned Independent Takeaway Fish and Chip Shop of the Year, Burton Road Chippy will now 'fry' for glory in the race to become Eastern England's best fish and chip shop.
The news comes after the business won a duo of awards at last year's ceremony.
Contenders from across the country have been judged and appraised by industry experts across a variety of criteria, including menu development and innovation, sustainable sourcing policies, staff training processes, and marketing and promotional activities.
They also received mystery shopping assessments by industry experts to ascertain customer service levels and the quality of their fish and chips.
Over the coming weeks, shops will be subjected to further mystery shopping assessments and in-depth judging audits.
This next stage of the competition will whittle the UK top 10 regional winners that will compete for the overall national title to be announced in January 2017 after a seven-month long judging process.
Marcus Coleman, Chief Executive at Seafish, organisers of the awards, said: "The Independent Takeaway Fish and Chip Shop of the Year Award is one of the highest honours a fish and chip business can receive.
"Receiving this award is the pinnacle of many friers' careers, but only one can take home the eventual overall national title. Before then, I would like to offer up my congratulations to the shortlisted businesses and wish them the best of luck as they battle for the regional titles."
Culminating in an awards ceremony in London on January 26 2017, The National Fish & Chip Awards celebrate the best talent, quality and choice offered by fish and chip businesses through 13 different award categories.

Registration: https://commerce.cashnet.com/msu_3794
To Our Food Fraud Initiative Partners,
This is an announcement of "Open Registration" for our next Short Course and Executive Education programs, with an updated marketing flyer and new open registration link.
Program 1: Food Fraud Business Executive Education Short Course
Registration: https://commerce.cashnet.com/msu_3794
This course is specifically tailored to those who need a thorough understanding of the fundamental Food Fraud concepts. The insights are applicable from entry level engineers to executives — the content is appropriate for all levels within your organization. This course is based on the MSU three-credit graduate course Anti-Counterfeit Strategy and Product Protection (VM/PKG/ CJ 840).
This course has been taught by Dr. Spink since 2008. Dr. Spink's 2009 MSU Packaging PhD Dissertation was "Analysis of Counterfeit Risks and Development of a Counterfeit Product Risk Model." Before returning to academia in 2005 he spent 15 years in industry, including 11 with Chevron Corporation. His wide range of experiences included packaging development, plant management, technical sales, new business development, and consulting services. Dr. Spink received the 32nd Packaging PhD on the planet.
Program 2: Food Fraud Initial Screening (FFIS) Vulnerability Workshop
Registration: https://commerce.cashnet.com/msu_3794
The workshop is a structured, education-focused program that provides attendees with introduction and instruction on a Food Fraud Vulnerability Assessment. This is the first step to developing a Food Fraud Prevention Plan. This workshop is a deeper and broader dive into the GFSI/ SSAFE Food Fraud Vulnerability Assessment, which is complementary to the MSU Quantifying Food Risk graduate course and supports the MSU Food Fraud Business graduate course focus on policy and strategy. Several real-world applications and problem-solving exercises are included that provide students with an effective framework for addressing their organization's product protection needs.
The workshop is led by Dr. Doug Moyer, Researcher for the Food Fraud Initiative and an Assistant Professor in the Department of Public Health, College of Human Medicine, MSU. Dr. Moyer's 2013 MSU Packaging PhD Dissertation was "The Influences of Organizational Behavior on Corporate Packaging Decision Makers for Durable (Repairable) Goods Producers." Before returning to academia he worked for 25 years at Ford Motor Company in a wide range of positions including Six Sigma, quality management, and as the director of North American packaging. Dr. Moyer received the 45th Packaging PhD on the planet.
Program Content
These programs will include insight from our most recent presentations, meetings, and projects, including:
- US Food Safety Modernization Act impact on Economically Motivated Adulteration and Food Fraud; Food Fraud is mainly addressed in the Preventative Controls rule but has been mentioned throughout FSMA. Overall, the Food, Drug, & Cosmetics Act is still in effect so the "Adulterated Foods" and "Misbranded Foods" sections are still the major drivers. There is a tremendous burden in addressing all FSMA, and while the FF/EMA sections are complex, an overall prevention plan appears to meet the compliance requirements.
- GFSI Food Fraud Prevention, Vulnerability Assessment/ VACCP: The Food Fraud Think Tank presented at the GFSI conference in February 2015. Clear direction was presented on the Food Fraud concept, the focus on prevention, and the three pillars of HACCP (Hazard/ Food Safety), TACCP (Threat/ Food Defense), and now VACCP (Vulnerability/ Food Fraud).
- Global Food Safety initiative/ SSAFE Food Fraud Vulnerability Assessment: This will be covered and analyzed.
- China Food Safety Law Content: Dr. Spink will provide the latest insight on the new Chinese Food Safety laws, which include Food Fraud. He spent two months in 2015 in Beijing as a Foreign Subject Matter Expert Fellow for the Chinese National Center for Food Safety Risk Assessment (CFSA). Dr. Spink was also a co-author with CFSA on the Food Fraud Chapter in the book Food Safety in China – Past, Present, and Future.
- Document Falsification: Due to partner demand we have added a Document Falsification section to the Food Fraud Business program. This will cover CofA's, import documents, test results, audit certifications, and other topics.
Our programs will present these concepts and provide insight on how to implement countermeasures within your organization.
Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions or require additional information. Complete program and registration information is available at http://foodfraud.msu.edu/resources/events/.

The colors of a each piece are unique and outstanding; mixing several tones of brown with splashes of yellow, ocher, green and grey.
Thomas Whieldon played a leading role in the development of tortoiseshell ware, creamware, and salt glazed pottery in mid 18th-century England.
The platter measures D 16 in. x W 13 in. x H 1.5 in.
The dish with the feather edge measures Dm 9.5 in.
The dish with the simple raised border measures Dm 9.3 in.

This holiday season, I am looking forward to creating all kinds of peppermint treats - as you can probably tell from my holiday Pinterest boards~
In addition to those goodies, I have a couple of other recipes that I know I will throw into the mix as well, and I thought I would share them with you today: my favorite cake mix cookie recipe as well as a super easy way to make red velvet brownie bars.
First up, I love these Chocolate Chip Cake Mix Cookies~ They are delicious!
1 Box of Yellow Cake Mix
1/2 Cup of Butter
2 Eggs
1 Cup of Chocolate Chip (In our house, these means 1 full bag of chocolate chips.)
Grease up your pan and then bake these little gems for about 10 minutes on 350 degrees.
1 Box of Red Velvet Cake Mix
2 Tablespoons of Water
1/2 Cup of Oil2 Eggs
Bake at 350 degrees for 20-25 minutes.
I use a 9 x 14 pan - The batter spread out thin, but then bakes perfectly.
If you want them to be thicker, just use a smaller pan.
*You could add nuts to these babies, but that's not really my thing. If you like nuts in your brownies, go wild!*
As you've probably figured out, I like sweet and simple recipes - I doubt you will find me sharing many recipes that have more than just a few ingredients. Those Strawberry Hand Pies that I shared with you this summer just about sent me over the edge. They were delicious, but I am still recovering.
Also, don't forget to check out these amazing Oreo Truffles~
