You really don’t get more classic St. Paul than this: The original founder of Eagle Street Grille, the restaurant formerly across from the Xcel Energy Center, has teamed up with a past Winter Carnival King Boreas to open a neighborhood beers-and-burgers pub on Selby Avenue.It’s called Pauly’s Pub and Grill, stylized with an Irish shamrock for an apostrophe. Named after St. Paul, of course.The exterior of Pauly’s Pub and Grill, a new neighborhood bar on Selby Avenue, is shown on Nov. 17, 2023. In addition to plenty of beers, cocktails and THC drinks, the restaurant also serves a variety of American-food appetizers and burgers. (Jared Kaufman / Pioneer Press)The restaurant opened Nov. 15. When you walk in, you’d be forgiven for thinking Pauly’s had been there since 1923, not 2023.Until September, the space was home to the modern-Filipino restaurant Kalsada. And though some decorative elements remain, including a couple hanging light fixtures and the arched trellis behind t...Ask Amy: Mother wants another baby despite family’s wishes

Dear Amy: At 54, my mother, already blessed with two academically accomplished children in the eighth and 12th grades, says she wants to have a third child.I am nearly 18 years old and will leave for college next year.My father, who is 57, is adamant that he doesn’t want another baby. He is a middle-school teacher and could retire within a few years. The idea of raising another child weighs heavily on him, having managed students his whole life.Plus — would a 12-year-old want a father in his 70s?Nobody except my mother wants another child. To accomplish this without enduring another pregnancy, she’s exploring surrogacy. She says she is encouraged by medical professionals who believe her fertility levels can produce a baby.I’m also concerned about my mom’s demanding work schedule. She works extremely long hours, and yet still wants to add another child to our family.Am I selfish in questioning the allocation of resources, as my mother contemplates fundin...Deal reached on stricter EU rules for waste shipments

Last week, Parliament and Council reached a provisional agreement on revising EU procedures and control measures for waste shipments.The agreed law aims to protect the environment and human health more effectively, while contributing to achieve the EU’s climate neutrality, circular economy and zero pollution goals.Strengthening the rules governing exports of waste outside the EUEU exports of certain non-hazardous wastes and mixtures of non-hazardous wastes for recovery (i. e. to be used for other purposes) will be allowed only to those non-OECD countries that consent and fulfil the criteria to treat such waste in an environmentally sound manner, including by complying with international labour and workers’ rights conventions. The Commission will draw up a list of such recipient countries, to be updated at least every two years.Parliament ensured that plastic waste can no longer be exported to non-OECD countries within two and a half years after the entry into force of the regulation...Design and decorate for transitions

Builders began addressing the needs of buyers before buyers asked for flexible and transitional offerings throughout their homes.As a result, new-home offerings mean spaces within homes can easily convert from one use to the next. Additional en suite bedrooms, workspaces, home gyms, flexible living areas or indoor and outdoor kitchens can be worked into many new-home plans.A bonus space can serve as both a media room and a home studio. A main-level bedroom can have a dedicated entrance separate from the home’s main entrance. The primary suite can be arranged to incorporate a private nook for exercise, reading or hobbies. And the indoor-outdoor ease of a California Room sets new construction apart from older homes.But given so many opportunities for flexibility and transition, the new-home buyer might wonder about how to connect all of these spaces, creating flow and uniformity that still expresses personality and style.Consider taking a seasonal approach.Set the stageNeutral tones a...Draw for the 2024 European Championship qualifying playoffs

Happy Thanksgiving, South Florida!Hopefully everyone has had enough time to prepare for the holiday and can take it easy today! It seems the weather for South Florida may be okay as a weak front slides through our area today. However, this morning it did not feel that way! Plenty of cloud cover and temperatures in the mid to low 70s made it feel like a summer morning for many. Portions of the Florida Keys saw a few showers early this morning. And while today’s front isn’t expected to be a strong one, at least it could bring some slight changes to the forecast. However, cloud cover may stick around on & off throughout the day. Let’s jump right into the important stuff – the Thanksgiving forecast for South Florida! As we watched most of the country be affected by a large storm system that brought rain sleet, snow and much colder air, South Florida will get the bits and pieces of what’s left of this front. Although the front is forecast to clear most of our area today, it w...Latest news
