Cooking Schools Nyc

While heading down the Chesapeake with Hank Wallace of Silver Spring to try live-lining for stripers, we came across a few schools of breaking fish, a welcome sight for all bay fishermen. We slowed down to take a look-see at one surfacing school and quickly noted that there were three different fishes on the chase for small baitfish under a patch of screaming gulls." target="newplace"> .

Off the Agenda: Friends, foes of schools split dig in history for analogies

No doubt about it, this is war.
Talk of an east-side secession from the Granite and Jordan school districts turned warlike last week as 300-plus people gathered at the Salt Lake County offices to battle for the council's vote.
Take a look at this exchange between Rep. Greg Hughes, R-Draper, and County Councilman David Wilde when talking about west-siders' exclusion from a possible November referendum.
Hughes dismissed claims that an east-side vote - involving only those who would break away into the new districts - was somehow unconstitutional or morally wrong.
Instead, Hughes reminded the council of another split - a revolutionary one - that required no vote by the party left behind.

Wake up! The bees are on their knees

How strange is the hierarchy of our affections for other animals. The extinction of the Yangtze River dolphin is mourned extravagantly because in its round, intelligent eyes we saw ourselves, before we killed it off. Similarly, the bonobo ape of Central Africa has become the endangered animal du jour in America, on account of its supposedly human characteristics, or those we aspire to: peacefulness, intelligence and an abundant interest in sex.

The bonobo is the subject this week of an 11,000-word profile in The New Yorker, in which it is described as a loveable cross between "a dolphin, the Dalai Lama and Warren Beatty". (I can confirm the highly sexed part because I once interviewed a female bonobo that had learnt to "talk" using a computer at the primate research centre in Georgia.
