Bull's Eye

The Durham staff of The News & Observer works the Bull City to dig up the news and tell its stories. Read here about insider stuff that fills their notebooks but doesn't always make the paper.

Well, I'll be glad when staff writers Jim Wise and Stan Chambers are back. Here's a look at tomorrow's headlines:

MARKET BANS DOGS: The Durham Farmers' Market will ban dogs from the Foster Street pavillion area starting August 15. Market manager Erin Kauffman says they've been getting complaints about aggressive dogs and -- yikes -- "dogs relieving themselves on the products."

BREAKTHROUGH SHAKE-UP: Commissioner Joe Bowser serves as the county board's liaison to the anti-poverty program Operation Breakthrough. So why does he say even he doesn't know why the agency is making its 100-plus employees reapply for their jobs?

THEY'RE GGGRREAT! : The Durham police and sheriff's departments, that is, for providing summer camp experiences to Durham youth each year. Read why some kids are saying it's a summer they'll never forget.

BACK TO THE GARDEN: Elizabeth Shestak knows her food. In this month's Morsel column she writes about Eden, Adam and Sara Smith's new restaurant in the Wachovia Building on Shannon Road.

A.J. "TENNse" Donaldson is back with a My View column, asking what message can we find in Michael Jackson's death. Tori Amos is coming to the DPAC, and reader Randi Byrd sends us a picture of her pumpkin. Seriously.

All that and more. Tell us what you think about the paper with a letter to editor@nando.com. And thanks for reading.
