Cattle Abuse, Beef Recall Highlight Systemic Weaknesses
On Sunday, the U.S. Department of Agriculture recalled 143 million pounds of frozen beef from Hallmark/Westland Meat Co. in California - the largest beef recall in U.S. history. The recall comes three weeks after the Humane Society posted a graphic video of cattle abuse at the plant, a supplier to more than 100,000 school lunch and child care programs in 36 states, including 700 schools in Minnesota. The abuse, including beating and shocking animals with electric prods, violated U.S. Department of Agriculture rules, and the agency initially informed state Departments of Education to put a "hold" on using Westland meat. Minnesota Education Commission Alice Seagren informed school districts where Westland ground beef had been shipped, "so that they can take appropriate action." Unfortunately, the recall affects beef products dating back to February 2006, and most have already been consumed.

Her love of Louisville is represented throughout the home with fleur-de-lis patterns and local artists' paintings hanging prominently on her walls. "When I moved in, I took pictures of four things that I love about this home and put them on my computer, so when I am not here, I can look at it and relish in the love I have for it," she said. .
The Rules for dating the City of Destiny for Tacoma developers
Think of Tacoma searching for developers to invest in downtown like a single person searching for a date on Match.com. The online dating service allows you to e-mail an electronic "wink" to whomever you might be interested in. But it takes a lot of winks to find one hot prospect willing to go on a date, my single friends tell me. So you can't get overly picky. But folks from City Hall, the Economic Development Board, the Foss Waterway Development Authority and the Chamber of Commerce have worn out their semi-colon keys over the past decade trying to woo condominiums, hotels, office buildings and name retailers. You'd have to call Tacoma's wink-and-date record dreary at best. A handful of notable condominium projects, a hotel and one office building have nuzzled up for some urban lovin' in the last seven years.

Hillary Rodham Clinton is right this time
I'm not sure how I'll make it through the day. I was sure this was the perfect match. Kid Rock, Tommy Lee (the husbands) and all the other boyfriends weren't right for her. But Salomon, the poker playing online sex video guy? Who'd have thought he wasn't the one for the former Baywatcher! Let's respect their privacy in these difficult times. Read The Paper ...
