Description Domestic Long Hair - Baxter - Large - Baby - Male - Cat

Hello, I'm Baxter! I'm a beautiful silver gray long-haired kitten with a bushy tail. Im not much of a talker or a cuddler, but that could change as I get to know you. I was probably born in Oct 2011 so that makes me about 5 months old at the time of this posting.

I am a quiet and well-mannered boy, but a little on the shy side. I must have had a scary start in life because I take awhile to trust people. I am good with the other animals in my foster home, just a little slow to warm up to the humans. But I have come a long way and will now let you pet me and sometimes even hold me.

I love to play tag with my foster sister and I also enjoy all of the toys in my home, especially the laser light. Thats probably my favorite!

I am good other cats and dogs, but have not been exposed to children.

If you have any questions or would like to meet me, please call (314) 827-5543 or email [email removed] . Information about the rescue and adoption process can also be found at stlpetrescue.com along with a full listing of the rescue's adoptable pets.

Our kitten/cat adoption fee is $125.00. This fee includes felv/fiv testing, worming, flea and ear mite treatments, age appropriate vaccinations, spay/neuter, rabies vaccination, and a microchip with free registration.

Kittens/cats must be inside only pets and returned to St. Louis Pet Rescue if you need to rehome. We are a non-declaw rescue and any kitten/cat that is not declawed must stay that way.

Restaurant Review: Kutsher's Tribeca ? Ph.D. Octopus

by David

Kutsher's Pastrami

I walked in to Kutsher?s Tribeca with my dad at about 12:45 PM. A smattering of other customers were there, but the place was large, so it felt more sparsely populated than it actually was. The decor is fancy, upscale, but the atmosphere was just to my liking: brightly lit, with barely audible music in the background (I like to see my food and converse with the people I?m eating with). Later, the owner, Zach Kutsher, told me that it?s a completely different restaurant at night. ?We turn the music up, turn the lights down, have a whole different menu.? I?d like to try that food, but might find that a little noisy.

Before I continue, let me emphasize that I highly recommend the place. The food I ate was absolutely delicious, and the service was excellent. My dining experience this afternoon was, on the whole, lovely.

It didn?t start off that way. When the waiter told me they made their own sodas (or soft drinks, in Canada), I decided to order their vanilla black cherry. Anyone with any sense of tradition (or any sense at all, really) knows you order Black Cherry at a deli. In Canada, that means Cott?s, which takes like a super-sweet delicious brand of cough medicine, in a good way (I?m not kidding). Virgil?s, Stewart?s or Doctor Brown?s in the good ?ol US of A work too. But this drink didn?t taste like any of those products. It tasted like drinking vanilla. Pure vanilla, with barely hint of cherry. Now normally I don?t like vanilla because I consider it too plain, too, you know, vanilla. But this was too potent. The beverage wasn?t even the right colour, a clearish reddish liquid rather than a syrupy eggplant reminiscent of unrefined oil.

I told the waiter (politely) how I felt, and he immediately offered me another drink, on the house. He recommended the ginger ale. I acquiesced. Unfortunately, that came to a similar result. It tasted like drinking ginger. It was moderately more tolerable than the black cherry, but if I was wandering for 40 years in the desert, thirsty, and I was offered either of these two drinks, I think I?d hold off for the next oasis.

The third drink I was offered, again on the house, was an apple soda. This was actually quite enjoyable; tasted like drinking apple sauce, but in a good way.

But enough about the drinks. I still cling to the Jackie Mason stereotype that Jews don?t care about drinks, alcoholic or otherwise. I came to eat, and I ate well. My father and I shared a pastrami sandwich, though I easily could have had my own. They weren?t as massive as Katz?s, but they were much more affordable, and at least as good. The meat wasn?t as moist as Katz?s, but it was more flavorful, more reminiscent of Montreal Smoked meat, at Schwartz?s or Mile End Deli, than your typical New York pastrami. The french fries were also good, and the matzoh ball soup was spectacular. Though it did not possess that comforting yellow glow I?m used to from deli soups, it tasted great, and came in a very hearty portion.

Most interesting, however, was the conversation with the waiter, manager, and owner, Zach Kutsher, grandson of the owner of the famous Kutsher?s hotel in the Catskills, a Borscht-belt landmark which had a well-known and beloved kosher dining room. They were very proud of the place?s heritage, and the waiter insisted that there were ?lots of Jews? there, not just the customers, but the wait staff, cooks, managers, and proprietors. Yet nobody we talked to would commit to calling Kutsher?s Tribeca a deli. The various terms they used included ?deli-chic? and ?upscale nouveau Jewish cuisine? and, like it says on the website, a ?modern Jewish American bistro.?

Kutsher's resort in the Catskills, back in the day, before it expanded

This got me thinking about my advisor Hasia Diner?s book,?Hungering for America,?about how Jewish, Italian, and Irish immigrants used food traditions (or in the Irish? case, the lack of said traditions) to consolidate their cultures in the United States. Jewish immigrants from all over Europe (and to a lesser extent Asia, North Africa, and the Middle East), brought different foods and recipes that blended together to create an American Jewish cuisine (similarly, Italian food was created in America, not Italy, where food is much more regional). Kashrut, the Jewish dietary laws, though not always strictly obeyed, provided an over-arching, unifying framework.

At the same time, developing these new, Americanized food traditions helped the immigrants integrate and acculturate. Today, Jews are thoroughly comfortable in America, integrated and acculturated. Restaurants like Kutsher?s, which shun the word deli but attempt to preserve something of the Jewish tradition, are all about asserting Jewish particularism within a modern, American framework. Kutsher?s is explicitly non-kosher, like the restaurant Traif?in Williamsburg or?Top Chef?s Ilan Hall?dressing up a matzoh ball with bacon.?But in rejecting kashrut, they are also explicitly Jewish, building a new American Jewish culinary tradition, in line with all the modern techniques of nouveau cousine, but with a nod to the old country. Like my friend Noah Bernamoff?of Mile End Deli,?these Jewish culinary adventurers get to explore strange new worlds of food while still holding on to their Jewish roots. They get to build something new, a hybrid cuisine, Jewish, American, and whatever else entices them.

Kutsher?s does this all very well. For those who?d like a quiet deli feel and a delicious pastrami sandwich, go at lunch. For a swankier soiree with a health dose of Hebraic goodness, go for dinner. And come hungry.

Successful Business Through Web Site Design | Earning Money ...

When we contemplate the power of internet selling, a lot of us appear to believe that anything we post for sale in the World Wide Web will automatically magnet clients. It is one of the main reasons why some websites do not come through. Our websites will only present and advertise products and services successfully if we assign the suitable things in them.

The internet is immense and powerful, but only to those who know how to utilize it. You cannot expect all internet users from all over the world to view and purchase your products. Only a really modest percentage of the millions of internet users actually shop for products from the World Wide Web, and an even smaller part of those who purchase items that they find by chance. When consumers look up the internet to shop, they already have a thought of what they want to buy. Thus, a website must captivate the interest of clients and make them remember about the company should they plan to buy the kind of product in the future.

Advantages Of Professionally Designed Internet Site.

A professionally designed internet site has its benefits. You can be certain of the quality- both in visual presentation and substance. It contains all significant information and delivers them in a visually pleasing style.

There is a stiff contest between websites in the internet, primarily due to their big number. After all, people commonly view the first few sites that come out of search results. Professional website design companies help in optimizing the popularity of your company website by making them web-spider favorable. They use advanced indexing programs that help web pages to come out automatically on relevant searches and rank better on search engine pages.

The website could tell either success or failure of a company?s internet drive. Make sure you improve your website?s advantages and gains by commissioning a professional web site design company. An advantageous web site company improves the website?s chances of success by making it useful and visually appealing to users and potential clients.

GAO says Shell's Arctic spill response plans might be lacking

WASHINGTON ? Days after the Obama administration approved Royal Dutch Shell's oil spill response plan for drilling in Arctic waters off the Alaska coast, an independent federal report said that Shell's plan fails to take into account the risks unique to oil production in harsh, icy offshore conditions.

After years of delays, Shell's plan to drill for oil in the Beaufort Sea as early as this summer has gained momentum as it won necessary permits from the Interior Department.

Shell's project would be the first oil drilling in U.S. Arctic waters since the early 1990s. But environmentalists, some Alaska native groups and members of Congress have argued that there are not enough safeguards in place to contain a well blowout or clean up a spill in rough Arctic conditions.

The report issued Friday by the Government Accountability Office cited Interior Department and Coast Guard officials who said "that a well containment response in Alaskan waters might face certain risks that could delay or impede a response to a blowout."

The report raised questions about whether wellhead equipment could withstand ice that scoured along the sea floor.

Interior officials told the report's authors that if a blowout occurred after the drilling season ended in October, the sea's surface ice could make it difficult for Shell's icebreakers to get to the accident site and install containment equipment.

In response to the report, Interior officials released a statement Friday saying that "exhaustive reviews of the plans" were conducted prior to the approvals and Shell will be held accountable for additional reviews and inspections "to ensure that all personnel and equipment are positioned and ready, if needed."

Shell has spent nearly $4 billion and five years preparing to drill exploratory wells in the Beaufort Sea and nearby Chukchi Sea. It said it hopes to begin drilling as early as July 10 and continue until just before the onset of ice in October, with a brief halt in the late summer to allow for a hunt of bowhead whales by Alaska natives.

Shell has said that the chances of a blowout in the Arctic are smaller in part because pressure in the oil reservoirs is lower than in wells in the Gulf of Mexico, site of the disastrous Deepwater Horizon oil spill in 2010.

If a blowout did occur, Shell and the oil industry might not have enough boats and people in place to deal with it, the GAO report said.

The report said Shell officials "told us that additional personnel would be needed to respond to a subsea well blowout. Moving personnel to the site could delay a response, since harbors, airstrips and hotels necessary to support personnel are limited in number and size along Alaska's northern shore. The facilities are also generally much farther from the drilling sites than they are in the Gulf of Mexico."

Shell defended its drilling plans. Spokeswoman Kelly op de Weegh said, "We believe our plan, vessels and equipment are the Arctic standard. In addition to Arctic capping and containment systems, our three-tier response plan was specifically assembled to mitigate environmental impact in the hugely unlikely event of well control incident."

Update for March - income tax refund: Dividing the Dime Personal ...

March 29th, 2012 at 02:54 pm

I finished my tax return and expect about $1500 refund. I changed my withholding in an effort to get less of a refund next year. I haven't seen the difference yet, so I'll plan for it when I have the actual number for my new take home pay.

I would like to go on record and say this about the instructions for the Form 1040: "Seriously????" I normally do our taxes, but for some reason, I had trouble understanding the language this year. I mean, SERIOUSLY???? Maybe I'm just getting older and more cranky.

I have an idea of how to divide up the refund of $1500 for savings. Much of it (about $800) will sit in my Christmas shopping account. The rest I keep rearranging on paper - some to my Roth IRA, some to my Freedom account, some to my wealth account/car account, some to our house repair account. So many choices!! I'll figure something out. I'm determined to save the bulk of it, give away a little (to church and a homeless shelter) and spend a small amount for things around the house.

Next year, I probably won't know how to act if I don't get a refund. (Or worse, if I owe!) Like several folks I know, I think I'm addicted to getting a decent tax refund. It's a nice chunk of cash to decide what to do with. We'll see how disciplined I am about saving during the rest of this year to make good on getting a bigger paycheck rather than a bigger refund.

Anyhoo, happy saving everyone!!
