clipper's remarks: The only upside of the food crisis?

Food prices are soaring. So why are prices for the delicious crustacean falling?

By Daniel Gross

Thanks to rampant inflation, this has been a summer of discontent for foodies, who have been forced to swap precious imported cheeses for Monterey Jack and to downscale barbecues from sirloin to skirt steak. But as I discovered on a recent Maine vacation, there's at least one high-end food product whose price is falling this year: lobster.

Michael LaDuke here again on the Red Lobster Chef’s Blog. First, my apologies or being away last week. In addition to visiting the International Boston Seafood Show, we also just started Lobsterfest, so it’s a very busy time for us. Lobsterfest is my favorite time of the year because it’s a celebration of everything lobster, whether our prized crustacean is broiled, grilled or prepared in pasta.

Hastings has lost touch, U.S. House rival Sanchez says

clipper's remarks: Isn't that the way Hastings' election game is always played? He shows up every few years in town to try and get people's votes. The rest of the time he's a ghost somewhere across the sea eating caviar and lobster.

Psssst ! Alcee - I don't think its going to work this time as your clock is ticking ! Yep, soon you'll be looking for a new gig in the private sector.

Might I suggest applying to Liars n' Cheats Anonymous ! Or going to work for Congressman "My house and family is in Maryland but my primary residence is in some 55 years and up Florida retirement communiy that I stay at once a month, maybe" ROBERT WEXLER, your buddie !

Can you say "RETIREMENT" ?

Hastings has lost touch, U.S. House rival Sanchez says

By LARRY LIPMAN

Palm Beach Post Washington Bureau

Ray Torres Sanchez, who is challenging Hastings in the 23rd Congressional District's Democratic primary Aug. 26, says the eight-term incumbent has lost touch with the voters.

"He should have been more visible to the community," Sanchez said. "Mr. Hastings only comes around when he wants votes. He goes off spending money traveling around the world wearing expensive suits."

The winner of the primary will face Republican Marion Thorpe, who announced a candidacy for Hastings' seat in 2004 but did not run. Democrats outnumber Republicans nearly four to one in the district, which covers parts of five counties, including Palm Beach, Martin and St. Lucie.

Sanchez, 51, who owns a funeral home in Palm Beach County, was elected to the Belle Glade City Commission in 2005 and became mayor shortly after.

The Siamese Twin and Champion Skater Who Got His Brother Arrested

The Godina brothers were Siamese twins born in the Philippines in 1906. Because they were pygopagus – i.e. connected at the buttocks - they possessed great flexibility (relatively speaking) and actually became accomplished dancers and champion skaters.

“The Half-Man” and his Incredible Magic Trick

Johnny Eck, “The Half-Man”, was born in 1911 with a twin brother Robert. Robert came out first and was perfectly normal, but a few minutes later Johnny appeared with a body that seemed to consist of just half a torso. He had a truncated spine with virtually no body whatsoever below it.

The Very Sad Tale of “The Lobster Boy”

Grady Stiles, “The Lobster Boy”, was born in 1937, the sixth in a long line of “lobster people”. The family condition is ectrodactyly, in which the fingers and toes are fused together, producing hands and feet that resemble claws. Stiles was unable to walk, but he could easily crawl

Giant lobster that sparked bidding war saved from pot

CTV.ca News

Dee-Dee the giant lobster will be avoiding a boiling pot of water and will be sent to a New Brunswick aquarium.

For about a week, Dee-Dee, a 100-year-old 10-kilogram lobster stayed at a Shediac, N.B. fish shop and was the centre of a cross-country bidding war between those who wanted to eat him and those who wanted to set him free.

The store owner, Denis Breau, said he accepted a $1,000 bid from Vancouver resident Laura-Leah Shaw to save the lobster, despite receiving a $5,000 bid from an Ontario group that wanted Dee-Dee for a banquet.

Dee-Dee the giant lobster awaits her fate in a tank.

"Some of my regular customers were starting to tell me I should release him in the water," Breau told CTV Atlantic of the reason for his decision.

Dee-Dee will go to a conservation group's aquarium, because releasing him back to the sea would probably be fatal.

The lobster may get to meet his savior in the near-future.

Dee-Dee is to be moved Monday or Tuesday.
