The Dream Games
My dream for a perfect football weekend came true. Greenbay and the Raiders won. Dallas and the 49er's lost. It will probably never happen again but if it does it will be this season.

C&H Now Part of the World's Largest
Who would have guessed a few years ago that C&H would be part of the world's premier cane sugar refinery. With the acquisition of Tate and Lyle (world's oldest) by ASR (owned by Florida Crystal), C&H provides a dream world for someone who dwells in the milieu of local Crockett history.
YONKERS, N.Y., July 1 /PRNewswire/ -- American Sugar Refining (ASR), North America's largest cane sugar refiner, signed an agreement to acquire Tate & Lyle PLC's European cane sugar operations.
Tate & Lyle is the leading cane sugar producer in the European Union. The acquisition of its refineries in London, England, and Lisbon, Portugal, increases ASR's total refining capacity to six million metric tons per year. The 211 million pounds Sterling ($318 million) acquisition includes a license for use of the distinguished Tate & Lyle brand in connection with the sale of sugar.
