  1. Adam Curtis Williams: 5 Fast Facts You Need to Know

    https://heavy.com/news/2019/11/adam-curtis-williams/

    Adam Curtis Williams has been identified as the man who was seen driving James and Michelle Butler’s RV and truck over the border into Mexico. The Butlers were last seen on October 15 and their bodies were found on November 1. An arrest warrant was issued for Williams for felony theft, but he already had a long history of crime and convictions in Utah. He had just been released from federal prison on a supervised release in December 2018. Here is what you need to know.

  2. Hate watching games with nothing but box kicks and penalty kicks.

    De Klerck should have received a yellow card for all the fuckery that occurred when England was at the 1 meter mark and there after.   

    The forward pass ignored on the SA try.

  3. I bought a 1up super duty single and add on this summer to replace the Kuat.

    I’v been leaving the 1up on most of the time since it doesn’t stick out as much as the kuat

    the 4 bike kuat saw more action getting loaned out to friend than from me.  

    The tool stand on the kuat is useless and a burden when installing and de-installing the add on.

    Charles Attal knew within a minute of hearing the news from his cousin that something had to be done.

    Kristyn Ciani, granddaughter of El Patio founders Paul and MaryAnn Joseph and daughter of longtime El Patio employee Roseann Joseph-Ciani, had alerted Attal that her uncle David had decided to close the restaurant his parents opened in 1954.

    “We have to save it,” Attal, a co-founder of C3 Presents, told his cousin.

    Ciani had supported her uncle in his decision to close the restaurant after four decades and never imagined she would have the opportunity to continue the family legacy. The call from Attal, who is also a partner in Stubb’s BBQ, changed all that.

    And a visit to the restaurant and a glimpse of the seemingly endless lines of people saying farewell to the Tex-Mex institution, which closed Aug. 9, reaffirmed their decision.

    The next generation of family formed a group that included Ciani, Attal,his sister Jennifer Attal-Allen, her son Sled Allen and Sway and La Condesa founder Jesse Herman to reopen the business, which has been in the family for 65 years.

    “It’s literally in my blood,” Kristyn Ciani said. “I never thought I would have been able to be a part of something so cool like this.”

    El Patio will reopen at 2938 Guadalupe St. by the end of September, the family said.

    “Our roots run deep in Austin, back to the late 1800s,” said Jennifer Attal-Allen, whose grandmother was a half-sister of El Patio co-founder Paul Joseph. “Family is everything to us. So to now, along with my brother, son, and cousin, be able to continue this tradition Uncle Paul and Aunt MaryAnn started, means more than I’m able to put into words. It’s especially a very proud moment for me personally, that the next generation who is stepping up includes my son, Sled.”

    When longtime guests return to visit El Patio, they will see familiar faces and familiar dishes. The staff from both front and back of house is returning to the restaurant, some of whom have worked at El Patio for more than 35 years. The menu will remain the same, though the bar will expand with additional drink offerings. The new owners say they have no intention of messing with the heart and formula of what made their family restaurant such a treasured institution.

    “Jennifer and I grew up in that restaurant, so it’s an honor to be a part of something that now my own kids can grow up in,” Charles Attal said. “We will continue to bestow the same respect upon it that David and the rest of our cousins have since day one.”

    El Patio will be open 11 a.m. to 10 p.m. Wednesday and Thursday, 11 a.m. to 10 p.m. Friday and Saturday, and 11 a.m. to 11 p.m. Sunday.

  6. Austin veteran fights off alleged homeless attacker after offering to help him

    AUSTIN, Texas — An Austin veteran was left with cuts and stitches after he said a homeless man attacked him inside a gated South Austin apartment complex.

    The alleged attack happened at the Ethos Apartments near the south Interstate Highway 35 Frontage Road about 10:30 p.m. Monday.

    Ian Hooper told KVUE he was returning to his apartment after walking his dogs when he noticed someone stumbling near bushes that led to one of the apartment complex's trails.

    "I thought he was maybe a drunk kid or something like that and needed help," Hooper said. "As soon as I got within arms' length of him, he turned around and just started swinging at me."

    Hooper said the two got into a scuffle before he realized the man was armed.

    "I was able to get him locked up. That's when I realized he had a knife and also realized I was covered in blood," he said.

    Hooper managed to push the man off of him before he ran into the woods.

    Then, his focus turned to his safety and the cuts from the knife on his arms. He said his training with tourniquets in the Army as a specialist came in handy.

    "I had a tourniquet in my car, so I grabbed my tourniquet and threw it on my arm and called 911," Hooper said.

    Medics took Hooper to the hospital, where doctors treated his wounds and gave him stitches for at least one of his cuts, he said.

    Austin police officers tried to find his alleged attacker, but they came up empty. As of Wednesday afternoon, police had not yet made any arrests, an APD spokesperson told KVUE.
