Cat and dog owners' top 25 pet peeves include the animals stealing food, howling in the night, and walking across the kitchen counter. A quarter of the 1,000 pet owners polled admitted they find their furry friends frustrating, at least some of the time, but 82 percent put the antics down to their cheeky character, while 7 in 10 find their misbehavior "endearing." It also emerged that 59 percent enjoy telling friends when their pets have been up to no good, including when they walk across their laptop while working and begging for food from the table. Other quirky habits included the human-like habits of refusing to go out in the rain and making strange noises in their sleep. "Like humans, pets have strong personalities, and for many they are a key companion and member of the family, especially if they've been by our side for a while, like my dogs Barney and Spiderman," said Helen Skelton, a TV presenter and spokesperson for insurance provider Petplan, which commissioned the … [Read more...] about Pet owners reveal biggest “pet peeves” around owning furry friend

Cops Confuse ‘ANTHRAX’ With ‘ANTIFA’ in Hunt for Violent Protester
A man who drew a gun and put a protester in a headlock at a “Back The Blue” rally during the peak of police-brutality protests last year openly displayed anti-fascist sympathies, according to a confidential police bulletin circulated months later. “‘ANTIFA’ is a patch on the right shoulder of the subject,” reads the bulletin, a copy of which was obtained by The Daily Beast. But the patch does not say “ANTIFA” at all. It’s a logo patch for the heavy metal band Anthrax. Last June, even as racial-justice protests swept the country, one pro-police event in Everett, Washington, made national headlines. There, in what critics described as an unequal application of justice , a teenager was arrested for taunting police with a doughnut, while a pro-police demonstrator was not arrested after putting a man in a headlock and drawing a gun. But two months after the protest, the Snohomish County Sheriff’s Office did circulate an internal bulletin about the gun-wielding man, according … [Read more...] about Cops Confuse ‘ANTHRAX’ With ‘ANTIFA’ in Hunt for Violent Protester
Michelin-starred restaurant Frances returns to San Francisco, but with a conflicting twist
Frances is officially back, according to Hoodline . The Michelin-starred restaurant from acclaimed chef Melissa Perello re-opened on Thursday, June 23, but there was a major change to the format — there is no longer an a la carte menu. Admirers of the California cuisine restaurant, located at 3870 17th Street, will remember classic bites such as the applewood smoked bacon beignets: little bite-sized balls with a fried crust but soft, chewy bite-sized balls that were best when dipped in the maple chive creme fraiche. Another favorite was the uber-popular Lumberjack Cake dessert — a coconut-sweetened, dense hunk of dark-brown flour and butter with chopped peaches, Medjool dates and often apricot slices folded in. As of now, though, neither can be found on the new prix fixe menu. In September 2021, Perello started a pop-up series out of the Frances kitchen, dubbed the FXMP dinner series (Frances x Melissa Perello), which also had a prix fixe menu format. It marked the first … [Read more...] about Michelin-starred restaurant Frances returns to San Francisco, but with a conflicting twist

Boris Johnson planned to build a £150,000 treehouse for his son Wilf at Chequers, it has been reported. The prime minister and his wife Carrie wanted to build the treehouse during autumn 2020 but had to pull the plug after it raised security concerns. The treehouse's design included bulletproof glass but could be seen by the roadside, prompting police to warn the PM about the risks involved. There were discussions about having Lord Brownlow, a Tory donor ranked the 521st richest person in the UK last year, fund the project, with plans for the treehouse drawn up for the country retreat, it has been reported. Some No10 aides warned Mr Johnson against the project due to the cost and the matter of it being more expensive than some homes in many parts of the UK. Prime Minister Boris Johnson with Carrie, their son Wilfred and dog Dilyn “He was told it would look terrible,” a government source told The Times .
