One of the nightly specials all were sandwiches, including a Reuben was a Garden Burger ($11.95 ). Really good vegetarian burgers are hard to find because lots can go wrong when making them, both texturally and flavor wise. This one was especially good on all counts.

Third, it was laced with herbs and condiments that gave it a swift flavor kick. Fourth, it came with alfalfa sprouts, a big slice of fresh tomato, and a half an avocado's worth of oh so healthy, creamy smooth avocado flesh.

All it needed to make the finished burger was a shake of black pepper and a squirt of ketchup, and the thing was big enough to be a whole meal. The only ding was the limp French fries that came with the sandwich.

Looking for a lost friend or relative / Will World Cup redeem people's faith in football

Will World Cup redeem people's faith in football
Join the World Cup conversation at CNN Facebook Pulse
(CNN) In Brazil, they use the expression "futbol arte" to describe the type of soccer which made the country's world champion team of 1970 so easy on the eye.
And, after a year of violent protests, rubber bullets and tear gas, the romantic ideal of Brazil often portrayed in glossy travel magazines seems hard to imagine.
Thursday marks the start of an opportunity for Brazil to redefine itself after a difficult 12 months preparing for arguably the world's largest and most popular event.
So no pressure, then, on Brazil's footballers, who take on Croatia in the tournament's opening game in Sao Paulo, the recent epicenter of the unrest.
Will the host team's expected progress, led by current hero Neymar, help ease the sense of injustice which has ingrained itself within the population?
As if that wasn't a great enough weight on the shoulders of coach Luiz Felipe Scolari's team, there is the added pressure of Brazil's quest to exorcise the ghosts of 1950 which will begin 64 years after what is known as the country's "Hiroshima."
When Uruguay defeated Brazil in the deciding match courtesy of Alcides Ghiggia's strike, it left an indelible mark on a country whose first love has always been football.
And yet, after more than six decades of waiting for the tournament to return to their home country, the Brazilian people are otherwise engaged.
Whereas football may still be a religion, its Brazilian congregation have slowly turned their backs on their deity.
"This World Cup is not for the Brazilians," 59 year old street vendor Maria Elza de Fatima told CNN.
"It is for the foreigners and FIFA friends."
While thousands of tourists flock to Brazil and media pack the streets to broadcast the action across the world, Sao Paulo has been brought to a standstill by metro workers striking over wages the latest in a series of protests against the government.
An estimated $11 billion of public money has been spent on hosting the tournament much to the chagrin of the protesters, who argue that money might have been better spent on public services.
"I think the best moment to protest is at the end of the World Cup," says two time World Cup winner Cafu, Brazil's most capped footballer, who was speaking to CNN to promote the Castrol Footkhana skills challenge.
"This will be the moment we can show ourselves that we can fight for our rights better education, better healthcare, better culture, better transportation," he told CNN.
"This is the moment we can show the world we are capable of staging a well organized World Cup. We will show we are a democratic country and (later) fight for our rights."
Once the football starts, nobody will be more relieved than FIFA and its under fire president, Sepp Blatter.
The 78 year old, who has held the position since 1998, was told Tuesday that he should not stand for a fifth four year term by some of the organization's key European members within UEFA.
However, at Wednesday's FIFA Congress in Sao Paulo, he told delegates "my mission is not finished. I am ready to accompany you in the future."
Just a fortnight after allegations of corruption during the 2022 World Cup vote was reported by Britain's Sunday Times, Blatter has been forced to endure one of the most difficult periods of his tenure.
The newspaper claims to have unearthed millions of emails and other documentation which allege Qatar's former FIFA Executive Committee member Mohamed Bin Hammam used a multimillion dollar slush fund to buy support for the bid. lawyer Michael Garcia, who has been appointed by FIFA to lead an investigation into the bidding process for the 2018 and 2022 World Cups, awarded to Russia and Qatar.
But president of the Dutch Football Association Michael Van Praag believes enough is enough.
"I then said at the microphone: 'I like you a lot, there is nothing personal here, but the reputation of FIFA is today inextricably linked to corruption," recounted Praag of what transpired at Tuesday's UEFA meeting.

Famous Faces and Local Characters / 4 things to expect from

4 things to expect from
"Basketball Wives" season 5 is set to premiere on Monday, August 19 and whether you hate them or love them, it's time to catch up with the ladies
Judging by the brief hiatus, most of us thought that we had heard the last of the "Basketball Wives" but low and behold they are back and a bit different.
In season four we left off with Jen Williams and Evelyn Lozada as enemies (they would try to mend their friendship with a hug on the reunion special), Tami Roman coming off as a bully after strong arming Kesha Nichols, and Shaunie O'Neil questioning if she wanted to continue her affiliation with the likes of the show due to the negative reputation it was building.
Well things are a bit different this time around and we've got the details. Check out what you can expect from season 5 of "Basketball Wives."
Royce, Jennifer, and Kesha are gone
That's right. Based on the promotional materials that have been released for the new season, Jen and Royce seem to be missing. There were rumors about them deciding not to return to the show but nothing was really set in stone. It was said that Shaunie wanted to push the show in a more positive direction and would be letting some people go. These three weren't any of the people we thought would get their walking papers since technically they aren't the drama queens of the show. A bit of a surprise but an instant indication of what we can expect this season.
Stephon Marbury's wife joins cast
Her name is Tasha Marbury and she's up to the task of joining a cast of ladies she clearly knows are drama llamas. The wife of NBA player Stephon Marbury is hoping that the show will help her to step out of the shadow of her husband. What do we know so far about Tasha? According to reports, she and Stephon may be broken up because of his infidelities, which is probably something she will go into detail about when the season premieres. Also, one report suggests that she is currently enthralled in a legal battle with a woman who allegedly harassed her and Stephon via the internet. According to the woman, who goes by the name Monet Merchand, Cheap jerseys wholesale she has slept with Stephon. Monet also claims that Tasha has threatened her (Monet) and her friends with "bodily harm." Tasha sounds like she will be able to hold her own with this group of women.
Evelyn will open up more about Chad
We've all heard about the much talked about fallout between Evelyn Lozada and her then husband Chad "Ochocino" Johnson, which landed the reality star on the cover of newspapers and blogs. She was reportedly head butted by Chad during an argument which lead to a divorce just two months after saying "I do." We've heard her open up about the personal situation as well as other things in her past on "Iyanla Vanzant's: Fix My Life" and judging by the show's trailer, she will speak even more in detail about what happened that night between her and Chad.
It looks like mother hen Shaunie O'Neil will be facing off with Tami Roman. Shaunie has managed to be "neutral" in a lot of the past dramas on the show and the ladies do seem to respect her. But it seems things will get a little sour between her and Tami this season. Not totally surprising, Tami has managed to feud with everyone else on the show so this was bound to happen. Although it isn't clear what the fight will be over, these two will have a war of words.
The fifth season of VH1's Basketball Wives is set to premiere on Monday, August 19 at 8pm EST. In addition to writing for the web, Samantha assists small business owners with blogging for their business.

5m great white monster drowns in net off Waiheke Is
By ANNE BESTONThe 5.5m, pregnant great white drowned in a net set by Tararu fisherman Dwayne Havord in the Firth of Thames, about 2km off the eastern end of Waiheke Island.Colleague Daniel Scott, of Thames, towed the dead shark to shore using a 5.1m aluminium boat.The men discovered the shark was carrying five 1.8m long pups and saved two of them by holding them in the water until they swam away."We thought she was a killer whale at first," Mr Scott said. "I've never seen a great white that big before."The shark was a rare catch, said Department of Conservation marine ecologist Clint Duffy, with just one documented case of a pregnant great white caught in New Zealand waters and only about 10 in scientific literature worldwide."I would have loved to have seen it but the fishermen did everything right.I think they felt pretty sad about it," he said.Mr Duffy receives about 10 reports of great white sharks around New Zealand each year but he said swimmers could take comfort from the fact that this one was in the inner Hauraki Gulf breeding, not feeding."If they are going into pup they stop feeding, and they tend not to hang around the nursery area because they might eat the pups."While the great white lurks in the imagination of most swimmers at some time or another, the star of the 1970s movie Jaws was thought to attack humans by mistake, said National Institute of Water and Atmospheric Research marine biologist Dr Malcolm Francis."They usually bite and spit you out because you don't taste as nice as a seal although admittedly if it happens it can be disastrous."He said no one knew how many great whites, or white pointers, there were around the New Zealand coast.The biggest was reliably Cheap authentic jerseys measured at about 7m but they commonly reach 4 5m. The female is bigger than the male.They are a super predator, with up to 3000 razor sharp teeth, a well honed sense of smell and the ability to pick up electric currents to lead them to prey.

Historical Newham / The crash of the markets

The crash of the markets
Market regulators and even governments have very few options when financial markets go into the kind of panic driven free fall as witnessed on Monday. The shock waves triggered by an over 9 per cent fall in Chinese stocks hit capital and currency markets worldwide. dollar, its lowest level since 2013. The immediate task for the market regulator, the Securities and Exchange Board of India, will be to put in place measures to ensure that there are no major settlement defaults, which can trigger a systemic collapse. Other than that there is little it can, or indeed should do, to prevent the current re rating of asset prices in the market running its course. On the currency front, Reserve Bank of India Governor Raghuram Rajan has given out the assurance that the central bank has sufficient foreign currency reserves around $380 billion to dampen any major volatility of the rupee. However, it can only flatten the trajectory of any fall, not reverse it. Besides, it needs to keep the powder dry to tackle any further devaluation of the yuan, which China might be forced to do if growth continues to be slow. After all, Monday global sell off was prompted by poor industrial output numbers, only confirming the fears Cheap authentic jerseys of global investors that China slowdown was proving less manageable than it had let on.
For India, Cheap authentic mlb jerseys the Chinese collapse might actually provide an opportunity. As Dr. Rajan has pointed out, India has a low current account deficit (CAD), the fiscal deficit is manageable, inflation is moderating and short term foreign currency liabilities are low. Despite a downward revision by global rating agencies in the growth forecast, growth is still fairly robust compared to other major economies. The fall of the rupee has been largely offset by a slump in crude prices, which should further ease pressure on the CAD. A cheaper rupee will also help revive exports. Progress on key reform measures such as the GST and Land Bills, and a step up in infrastructure spending, could boost industry. A strategically timed interest rate cut can help revive consumer and investor sentiment. For that to happen, the Centre needs to demonstrate greater political skills in pushing its reforms agenda, and speedier reflexes than it has shown so far. A case in point is the delayed PSU disinvestment programme. Monday offer for sale of 10 per cent of shares in Indian Oil Corporation barely scraped through amidst the bloodbath. Future asset sales will have to be in a markedly more bearish market, leading to lower realisations.
