Great American Bites: Nathan's hot dogs, the taste of Coney Island

Albany Med: More than 200 patients treated for dog bites over the last year

These are more like crinkle nuggets than crinkle fries, short and squat, only about an inch and a half long. If you like steak fries, you'll probably love these, but if your taste is more towards the shoestring/crispy variety you might be ambivalent. I'm usually in the latter camp, but as crinkle cuts go, these are excellent and hard to stop eating, GREAT AMERICAN BITES: Ben's Chili Bowl delivers true taste of D.C. The rest of the menu is simply adequate, and if nothing else, delivers good value. The fried clams are certainly not the whole belly fresh versions found at New England clam shacks, but they are reasonably tasty, especially for the price. Ditto for the lobster salad roll, with chopped lobster no chunks - and too much celery on a lettuce base. It's not up to Maine standards, but it's still good value. The fried shrimp also taste frozen, but Nathan's does a good job with the deep fryer.

Reports routine, charges seldom in dog-bite cases in metro area

Out of all those patients, 75 percent were children. "Heard of especially children that've been killed by dog bites," said Dr. Ash Patel, a plastic surgeon at Albany Medical Center. On Friday, the hospital hosted a news conference to warn people that a dog's bark isn't always worse than its bite. According to doctors, bites to the face and hands are most common. "Those have to be cleaned out very thoroughly, sutured appropriately, make sure there's no other injuries like bone or tendon injuries.

There were 16 reports of animal bites in 2011, with four cases being charged out criminally. So far in 2013, Moorhead police have responded to seven calls for animal bites, with one citation for dog at large among those calls. In 2012, there were 27 calls with one citation, and in 2011, 31 calls with two citations. In the past year, the Moorhead department has declared three dogs as dangerous, which usually has its roots in the report of a dog bite. Anytime we feel that a dog is dangerous we have the ability to take that dog temporarily, said Vettel, citing a case of suspected rabies as an example. If the dog is deemed by the police to be fierce, dangerous or vicious, according to Fargo city ordinance, the owner is notified in writing and required to either surrender the animal for placement or destruction. The owner can appeal in municipal court, which can then order the dog confined or order the owner to surrender it for destruction. In the Levesque case, the victim, a 10-year-old girl, was walking home from Dilworth-Glyndon-Felton school May 16 in the 100 block of Fourth Street Northeast when the dog got away from Levesques daughter and bit the child, said Dilworth Police Chief Josh Ebert.
