Cute, easy, and comfortable!
"Love the red color and that it is unnecessary to tie any laces! The first couple times of putting them on is challenging (for me, anyway) because you can't widen the area where the laces usually are. Once I got my feet inside though, I forgot I was even wearing shoes! They really are that comfy!"

Our Favorite Celeb Dads – Favorite Super Hero Dad
From musicians to athletes to actors, join us as we continue our countdown to Father's Day with the hottest celebrity pops in the business. And we've even got a genuine super hero dad!
Favorite Super Hero Dad: Tobey Maguire
He's played Red Pollard in Seabiscuit and Homer Wells in Cider House Rules, but say Tobey Maguire's name and everyone thinks about just one role: Spiderman. Interesting, then, that in real life, Tobey is much more like Spidey's alter-ego Peter Parker than the web-slinging super hero.
Tobey is known for being extremely private, unassuming and modest – especially for a guy reportedly earning close to $20 million a picture. Perhaps that's because it hasn't always been accolades and action figures for Tobey Maguire.
Born to an unmarried teenage mom, Tobey spent much of his childhood being bounced around the West Coat, from one relative's house to the next: "I realized at a young age that I was responsible for myself. My feelings of love or security or happiness – they were all in my own hands."
All that changed in 2003 when Tobey met his now wife Jen Meyer, jewelry designer and daughter of Universal Studios President and CEO Ron Meyer. In November 2006, the couple welcomed their daughter Ruby Sweetheart, and in September 2007, they married at an intimate, private ceremony in Hawaii.
Now, the almost two-year-old Ruby has become the undeniable center of Tobey's (and Jen's) world: "It's a very dramatic change," he told David Letterman recently. "It's great. She's so adorable. She's just a smiley, little beautiful thing."
Check back each day for another celeb dad (or you can cheat and check out all our Favorite Celeb Dads here)


text: Thao Nguyen and Mirah Yom Tov Zeitlyn were friends and like-minded singer/songwriters, so it only made sense for them to collaborate. The pair first played a set at San Francisco, California's 2010 Noise Pop Festival, and later that year performed a full-fledged tour with their band, the Most of All, which featured members from each of their individual backing bands. They recorded their collaboration at John Vanderslice's Tiny Telephone studio with tUnE-yArDs' Merrill Garbus as their producer, and the results were Thao & Mirah, which arrived in early 2011. ~ Heather Phares, Rovi

The Kinsey Institute Presents
January 17 to April 7, 2006
Presented by:
Brian J. Woodman, guest curator
Catherine Johnson-Roehr, Curator
Garry Milius, Assistant Curator
By Brian J. Woodman
The Sex in the Cinema exhibit at the gallery of the Kinsey Institute for Research in Sex, Gender, and Reproduction emphasizes advertising and publicity materials created by motion picture producers and distributors in the United States from the 1930s through the 1970s. Although several unusual objects are incorporated into the show, the majority of featured items are posters, publicity stills, lobby cards, press books, and other movie industry print materials. Hollywood, independent, exploitation, sexploitation, and adult heterosexual and homosexual films are all included in the exhibit in order to provide an overview of the myriad ways sex has been used throughout the history of motion pictures to titillate audiences and increase box office receipts.

We found Green Elephant closed on a recent Sunday evening, so we walked a few doors down to Mesa Verde. I used to love this vegan-friendly Mexican restaurant in high school, but I hadn't been back in more than ten years.The decor has certainly gone downhill: the black plastic tables, overly-large wood-paneled booths, and green metal-backed chairs looked like they'd been salvaged from a T.G.I.Friday's. A television over the bar blared ESPN throughout the restaurant. It was dark, and the table and chairs were sticky; this place felt more like a dive than the bright, fun Mexican restaurant I remembered.
Our server was extremely helpful in determining which dishes could be made vegan. I was a little scatterbrained about my order, but she cheerfully made several trips to the kitchen to inquire about sauces and side dishes. The menu features the standard line-up of quesadillas, tacos, burritos, and enchiladas, and almost everything can be made vegan with vegetable, bean, tofu, or tempeh fillings and soy cheese.
We skipped the margaritas, having overindulged at a wedding the previous night, but the couple at the next table got a huge pitcher for $12. Chips and salsa are no longer free, so we simply ordered entrees. I got tamales with tempeh and mole sauce, and sides of pinto beans, brown rice, and salsa.
I'd wanted to try tamales since the early 80s when I saw them prepared on an episode of Mr. Rogers, but since Mexican food is scarce in Maine and they're usually made with meat or cheese, I'd never had the opportunity. They were surprisingly rich, with nutty tempeh and smoky mole sauce over soft, creamy cornmeal. The rice and beans were filing, if not exciting. The mole sauce had a little bit of bite to it, but I still doused the plate in hot sauce.
Mesa Verde doesn't have a website, but you can find links to other reviews on the Portland Food Map. Most are negative. My food was decent, no worse than Margarita's, and the service was great, but the dark, depressing atmosphere will probably keep me from visiting again. If I lived in Portland I'd be all over Mesa Verde for take-out. Margarita's is a better option for dining in; it's a chain and offers very few vegan options, but I don't feel dirty when I leave.
I give Mesa Verde three chickpeas for a wide selection of vegan items.

Great Olive Oil
Verified Purchase
Great Olive Oil
Ever since I was made aware of the great olive oil scam, I have been in search of a real olive oil. This is definitely an authentic oil. It is so smooth and fragrant and smells like olives.

Read good article on California Olive Ranch olive oil, but this variety is way way below par. No hint of fruitiness at all, very bland and flat. Taste somewhat raw, leaves a raw taste in the mouth, certainly not the "fresh olive" scent as the label says.
Great flavor
Posted by Reviewer2664335 on Dec 28, 2011
I recommend all the California Olive Ranch oils. They're fresh, date to time of picking and packed in dark glass. The taste will tell you that all the healthy goodness is in there.
Fresh California Extra Virgin Olive Oil
Posted by Reviewer2144919 on May 31, 2011
This is really very fruity, the harvest day of this oil is novembre 2009. One of the best.

I have tried a LOT of olive oils over the years. This one is a winner. It is particularly good drizzled over my home grown tomatos. I will be re-ordering this item.
great value

The description and photo clearly says "Fresh California Extra Virgin Olive Oil", but the product I received is the "For Everyday Meals" type, which is much cheaper. This happened to me twice.

I couldn't find this at my local grocery-store so I was happy that IHerb had this product. This is authentic olive oil, the real stuff! I will continue to buy this product as long as I can get it.

Game Day B*tches 3: The perfect storm
October 17 2008 01:29PM
Are the Gods of liquor poisoning kidding us? Back to back Fri-Sat night games against Calgary? Someone call the liver replacement clinic – we will need to book a 7 AM appointment on Monday morning.
There is only one thing we like better than hockey. Beer. Well hold up, include women in that. And automatic weapons. Yeah, that works. There are only three things we like better than hockey: beer, the ladies and automatic weapons. And 17th century harpsichord rhapsodies.
Back to back weekend games? This is big. Bigger than Hasselhoff in Germany big. Bigger than a Tupac "I'm not dead Tour" being announced. Bigger than ... well you get the picture.
Game time work
These Justice League Meetings on the Nation during the games are becoming a double edged sword. On the one hand we can't leave OilersNation HQ and hit the streets of E-Town to interact with the party people during the game. On the other hand we can slam beers in our authentic 1991 Bill Ranford Jersey and scream at the top of our lungs at the powerplay without bothering the waitress.
Speaking of the waitress - we'd like to order a double head stomping of the Flames. And something with coconut on it. Thanks darlin'.
See you online at game time. What a weekend it is going to be.
- You can catch Wanye Gretz in your sister's room at exactly 1:15 AM tonight.
I think a photshop of the "flaming C" on dudes sweatshirt is a must...or an oilersnation tatoo on his sharpy covered face.
Nice picture
October 17 2008, 01:56PM
I rock the Ranford jersey every game I watch. In public, or at home.
Only difference is that at home, it's only a Ranford jersey and Oil boxers. I'm pretty awesome like that.
October 17 2008, 01:58PM
I too have a Bill Ranford jersey from 1991. Is your white parts starting to look yellow?
Is your white parts starting to look yellow?
That's what she said.
Is it too soon to rock a Ryan Smyth jersey in public yet? I can't get into my Kurri jers anymore (I was 12 when I outgrew that one!)
October 17 2008, 02:17PM
3 Ranford Jersey wearers? My brothers. We should start an association and publish a newsletter.
Mine is looking pretty ragged too. I haven't kept up it's washing because its autographed on the front and I have been terrified the autograph will wash out.
Even though I know this isn't the case - I still err on the side of caution.
October 17 2008, 02:21PM
It's never to soon to rock a Smyth jersey R-Gib.
Never. Right Wanye?
Looks like a pic from the hospitality suite at the 2006 Cup Final in Carolina except I don't see any vomit.
October 17 2008, 02:28PM
I'd steal Dion's SUV again for a chance to get my jersey signed by Bill.
I was checking canada411 like mad for a few years hoping he'd actually be listed so I could mail the guy and see if it was actually him, but only found 1 William Ranford listed and it was the wrong province. :(
October 17 2008, 02:46PM
Looks like a pic of Stauffer at one of George's karaoke partys. Is it too early to bust out my '87 Reijo Ruotsalainen jersey?
My sister can't wait!
UPDATE FROM ROD P IN CALGARY: MacIntyre is back in tonight on the fourth line with Kyle Brodziak and Marc Pouliot. Stortini sits again.
October 17 2008, 03:53PM
What is calgary's line up looking like? Is prust playing? how about boyd?
hey wanye, you can catch your sister in my room at exactly 1:15 am...
Greene getting almost 3mil per year for 5 years AND he got an Alternate Captain A this year. I think my head is about to explode.
October 17 2008, 05:18PM
That burn delivered by MSG is officially the largest burn ever delivered on the internet.
October 17 2008, 06:35PM
Oilernation I will not recount the horrors i lived through this week.
I will say after spending five days in Toronto a back to back Oiler/Flamer games is exactly what Dr Randy Gregg ordered....
The only thing that got me through the week was that our Mighty Oil were broadcast in HD on TSN
You can literally smell the suck in Toronto....whats amazing is the locals don't seem to notice and think their team is just fine, when they really smell like hot garbage.
October 17 2008, 07:05PM
Go Oilers!!!!
Who fights first? MacIntyre or Strudwick I wonder?
MacIntryre in the lineup?
October 17 2008, 07:15PM
Kipper is looking shaky!!
October 17 2008, 07:17PM
Atta boy Brodziak
Argh :(
Thats a terrible start
October 17 2008, 07:22PM
Good thing the Flames are easier to score on than Paris Hilton at 3 AM.
yup, that was a good one, Wanye
Mix it up - get some emotion going!!

This is a boring start
Roger Millions is a terrible announcer IMO
It is a bit dull. How are the beers Wanye?
October 17 2008, 07:36PM
Chilling in the fridge actually. This game has all of the tempo of two corpses dancing
October 17 2008, 07:38PM
I have a sneaking suspicion that Craig MacTavish decided that the best way to show Roloson's worth would be to start JDD.
Wow I can basically text my guess in that contest to my name. Calgary is sure an excited place tonight
October 17 2008, 07:39PM
Meaning he expected JDD is going to suck?
October 17 2008, 07:40PM
"you know what he hit!"
Yes, but it's your job to tell me, Mr. Play-by-Play.

Atta boy Cogliano! Woot!
I get to the end of a period like that and I wonder - Did Lubo earn his 22 grand or whatever he just made?
Yes he did.
Wow Bert just made a good move
October 17 2008, 07:44PM
Well at least the Oil escaped tied. That was a boring period to say the least.
That damn Glencross is such a traitor.
Never in my life have I seen a coach not deliver a speech in intermission. That ad is lame!

Movie Summary
Cold Fever (A Koldum Klaka)
Description: All poor Atsushi Hirata really wants is to leave the cold Japanese winter and take a week's vacation in warm Hawaii. Unfortunately, he ends up forced to honor tradition and travel to even more frigid Iceland to pay tribute to his late parents who died there seven years before. This internationally produced very funny road movie chronicles his many misadventures that begin when he disembarks from his plane in the midst of a blizzard and ends up boarding the wrong bus. The bus takes him to some popular hot springs and he must take a taxi back to Reykjavik. He doesn't make it back, because the driver needed to stop in his hometown and participate in a nativity pageant. This forces poor Hirata to bum a ride on a truck. During the journey, he meets a broad assortment of eccentric and bizarre characters ranging from a woman with a thing about photographing funerals, an aspiring Bonnie and Clyde, and a band of Icelandic cowboys.~ Sandra Brennan, All Movie Guide

There are 'safer' ways to inhibit cytochrome oxidase - suggest this is only for those who have exhausted 'other' options?
Health-Is-Wealth发表于 2月 14, 2014
Even at one a day, I do not recommend unless you're desperate and have nothing left to try. Chances are if you own anything modern, wear clothes, eat food, take vitamins or breathe air, you're already suffering hypoxia. I'm inclined to believe there's a reason these taste awful. Vitamin 'B15', 'pangamic acid' - potent antagonist of iodine, manganese and sulfur - the former two essential for thyroid hormone production and endocrine health; the latter for connective tissue, collagen. Not sure what planet the Krebses' were on - 'pangamic acid' has done nothing for my asthma or detoxification (maybe if high manganese is an issue, it might?). If you suffer a disorder of any kind, why make it harder on yourself by adding another toxin into the mix? There's ample in the environment already. Save your money and try almonds if you're still keen - if they 'don't work', you likely have your answer re this product. If you try apricot kernels and run into issues - hydroxycobalamin is your antidote-friend (but may cause already low iodine/manganese to worsen). If this review was helpful to you, please click YES below - thank you. For reviews of all the products I have purchased from iHerb, please click my username above.
Great product, but use common sense!

I am using this to prevent cancer, which my family has a history of. The documentary " World without Cancer" is very impressive and I highly recommend it. BUT BEWARE! These things are strong and they DO release some cyanide into your system. I took a few too many one day ( 6 at once) and found myself felling weak and dizzy. I am 5'3" and weigh 115 lbs. and chewing 6 at once made me ill. I still take these, and will continue to do so. But I recommend using with care and caution.
Reviewer2087439发表于 6月 09, 2012
I was so excited to get these as I have heard how good they are for you. I am eating just one a day because I am getting used to their taste. I am pretty good with eating not so good tasting things if I know they are healthy for me. Yes, they are bitter, I don't really know anything that describes their taste. Everytime I eat one I make sure I chew it for while. I know if I just stick to it my body will get used to the taste and it wont be so bad anymore after a while.
Great product at a reasonable price

I have been using bitter raw apricot kernels for the past three years. Initially as part of cancer treatment protocol and then as cancer prevention. In Australia this product is no longer available, therefore I was lucky to find it on iherb.
Great product

I soak them in water 8 hours before putting them in a smoothie, else, they are hard and bitter. Good product.

Highly recommend. purchased for my entire family (including my dogs) to take to prevent cancer. All the people take 7 per day and our dogs each have 1 or 2 depending on their size.

Периодически заказываю для деда и родителей. Иногда сама жую - хотя очень горькие, но есть вполне можно (главное ничего сладкого не есть до и после их употребления, а то вся польза улетучивается). Маме они нравятся, каждый день по 3 косточки ест. Верим в пользу, так как в Беларуси онкология очень распространена - последствия Чернобыля.

Its working well for roll and pitch, but I have a lot of problem to stabilize on the yaw axis, did you succeed?
I am considering to make a similar demonstration using the same 2 sensors.
The way I'd approach this is similar to the algorithm used for NTP
I fly paragliders for a living so I'm familiar with thermals.
Quote from: PeterH on Dec 04, 2012, 05:41 pmThe way I'd approach this is similar to the algorithm used for NTPIs that Marzullo's algorithm you're talking about?
I need to make some improvements to reduce oscillating and drifting.
But how do you get it to go 0 speed in the first place? First you have to measure the speed with the Ameter. Which doesn't help because of drift. It's a loop with no solution.

Not Cute

Comfy and Stylish
"I ordered these in black in my regular size and they fit great! Although they're not real leather, the faux leather is nice and comfortable. I feel like I could walk in them for long periods of time without hurting, which is awesome! Also, they're like a mix of a Western bootie and a rocker shoe--the studs look great coming out from under long pants, or showing completely with a dress! I really like them, and the price is good too. Only hope they don't fall apart, as some other reviews state some problems with quality. Great look for a hard rock feel!"

Cute, but perhaps not quality
"It's my own fault to have ordered my 'normal' size, after losing 30+ lbs because these are too large, but not unbearable. However, after having them on for only an hour, I discovered a scratch across the top and all I did was walk from my car to my desk!!! So I spent the first day in them very nervous, tip-toeing around, and have not discarded the box in case I need to return them."

Many Strong Voices is pleased to announce the launching of new online photo galleries from the Portraits of Resilience project. Many of these photos are being exhibited as part of a Portraits Exhibition at the Danish National Museum in Copenhagen, running over the same period as the climate negotiations.
The Portraits of Resilience photography project, which illustrates the ethical dimension of the climate change discussion through the words and photographs of children in Arctic and SIDS communities.
The first phase of the project focuses on four Arctic communities: Shishmaref, Alaska; Uummannaq, Kalaallit Nunaat/Greenland; Ungàrgga/ Nesseby, Norway and Pangnirtung, Nunavut, Canada. The goal is to give these young people a voice in Copenhagen in 2009 – and to show that the children and youth of the planet have the most at stake from climate change.
Portraits of Resilience is led by two photographers, Christine Germano and Lawrence Hislop, who have extensive experience documenting human/environment interactions. Through this project, the students have written essays, learned to take photographs, and worked hard to show their communities to the outside world.

It's a sad day when so few say they have the right to speak for the many. Who gave these people the right to tell me I can't pray to a God that I choose to believe in? That I have no right to raise my hand to my heart and recite the Pledge of Allegiance to God and country and especially to the men and women who fight every day for this right.
Who says that I can't salute the flag of this United States of America? I did not sign anything giving them the right to speak for me.
An now these same few are trying to take Christmas trees out by calling them holiday trees. Why? Who is offended by calling them Christmas trees? Aren't there more for Christmas trees than holiday trees? There is no substance or love in those two words. There is no heart, no beauty, no happiness and no love when you say come on kids let's go cut down our holiday tree. There is no ring of joy and no feeling of excitement. But when you say, come on kids let's go get us a Christmas tree. Boy the difference you see in their faces and the stars in their eyes. You see what you felt when you were so believing and full of hope and love when you were their age.
How can so few get the right to threaten big corporations with closure if the Christmas spirit was displayed and people were forced to listen to the Christmas songs and see the lights and toys displayed with all their grandeur. No Christmas spirit means no selling power to me. I love the Christmas spirit and try to keep it within my heart all year long...but I've noticed that it's null and void in the big box stores we have to shop at in our area. So I'm ordering from catalogs or the internet. I won't be buying any gifts from them.
It's not the employees fault, but a line has to be drawn somewhere. Christmas is what you make it, but you have to have something to work with and stores without music and decorations to lure me and mine in just won't do this year...Merry Christmas...Silver Bells and Noel and all that goes with it is sent with my heart singing all the way.

The Elko District encompasses 12.5 million acres, and has primary wildland fire suppression responsibility for 7.5 million acres of public lands. Assistance is also provided to cooperating agencies such as the Nevada Division of Forestry (NDF), U.S. Forest Service (USFS), U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS), Bureau of Indian Affairs (BIA), and numerous county, tribal and municipal governments. Within its borders lie three ranger districts of the Humboldt-Toiyabe National Forest, including the Ruby Mountain Wilderness and Jarbidge Wilderness areas as well as the Ruby Lake National Wildlife Refuge. The BLM administers 10 Wilderness Study Areas for a total of over 272,000 acres.
The Elko District Office's fire suppression organization employs over 70 Permanent / Career Seasonal / and Temporary Seasonal employees. Initial attack fire suppression resources consist of four stations (Elko, Carlin, Wells, and Midas), ten 4x4 heavy engines, three Fire Operations Supervisors, Interagency Hotshot Crew, Exclusive Use Air Attack Platform, and Exclusive Use Type 3 Helicopter with Helitack Crew. In addition to these suppression resources, the Elko Interagency Dispatch Center handles all-risk dispatch duties for five agencies, and an aggressive fuels management program implements hazard fuels reduction projects for resource benefit each year. The interagency fire organization also completes numerous Prevention / Education / Mitigation outreach activities annually within our local communities.
The Northeastern Nevada Interagency Fire Management organization is responsible for all wildland fire management for the Elko District Bureau of Land Management, Eastern Nevada Agency of the Bureau of Indian Affairs, and the United States Forest Service's Ruby Mountain / Jarbidge / Mountain City Ranger Districts through an Interagency and Service First Agreement. The ENA program supports several Type 2 Handcrews and Camp Crews, and also includes completion of vegetation management projects on Tribal Trust lands. The Mountain City Ranger District also stations an engine crew in Elko for initial attack and aggressively pursues multiple hazardous fuels reduction projects annually. The Elko District is considered one of the busiest offices within the BLM for initial attack opportunites due to our high fire occurrence frequency and fuel types. Elko District averages over 150 fires per season for approximately 100,000 acres, with an average season of June 1- September 15. However, Elko District has experienced several extreme seasons in past years.

We're not looking to make straight-up fruit-bomb styles," says Brian Bicknell of Mahi Wines, describing his 2012 Mahi Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc ($19).
"Fruit from five different vineyards is used to make this wine. Two vineyards are handpicked and the stuff that's machine-picked we do a bit differently, and we reckon it makes a huge difference to the wine," says Brian.
In a machine-picking situation, the grapes are moved around a lot from the machine to the gondola, the gondola to the truck, the truck to the receiving bin. Then it's in the auger, then the de-stemmer, followed by the crusher and the must-pumps.
"So you're moving the fruit around seven times," he says. "The way we do it is that we machine straight into small, half-tonne bins which, later at night, we use for hot tubs (just kidding), and then we just tip them straight into the press - so the fruit only gets moved twice."
Brian sources the fruit for his wines from seven vineyards situated right across the Wairau and Awatere Valleys and being as gentle on the fruit as possible is the key to creating a good drop.
"Our Marlborough sauvignon only has about 10 per cent barrel fermentation in older oak because we don't want people to smell the wood, we just want to give another layer of flavour. We don't add any pressings, just free-run juice and then about 8 per cent of it is fermented with wild yeasts from the vineyard."
The Mahi 2011 Boundary Farm Sauvignon Blanc ($29) is made in a totally different style: "It's all handpicked before going over the sorting table.
"We don't add anything to the juice, no sulphur, no ascorbic and no enzymes. Instead we just press it and then the juice runs straight to barrel. With most white wines you let it settle for three days then you rack it, but this just goes straight to barrel and we leave it. It's all fermented with the wild yeasts from the vineyard and it sits in cool storage for six months. This wine is a bit ballsier."
Brian and his team also make two distinctly different pinot gris, a fragrant gewurztraminer, a juicy, savoury pinot noir and three chardonnays. Mahi chardonnays are all handpicked, whole cluster-pressed, and the juice runs straight to barrel. They're fermented with wild yeasts and they sit from 10 to 14 months before bottling.
"We can't make enough of that stuff," he says. "Although people still come into the cellar door and say, 'I don't drink chardonnay', and we've just wanted to leap over the counter and headbutt them because nobody says, 'I don't drink white burgundy', and they still drink chablis, and they're shocked to find out its all chardonnay!" he laughs. "I can understand someone saying, 'I don't drink s**t chardonnay', though."
Forget about your wallet ...
Fans of Johnnie Walker Scotch will combust with joy in hearing that the company has just released three new additions to its range. Standing next to the new creamy, honeyed Gold Label Reserve ($99) and the smoky Double Black ($65) is the Johnnie Walker Platinum Label ($149). Created by master blender Jim Beverage from a combination of malt and grain whiskies matured for at least 18 years, it is bright amber with aromas of citrus peel, fruitwood smoke and toasted chestnuts, and has deeply rich, creamy, smoky flavours followed by a silky finish.
It's sophisticated, complex and refined - and there's not much of it available, so best you contact Lion Luxury Spirits ambassador Frankie Walker at firstname.lastname@example.com for stockists near you.
Cocktail treats ...
This Christmas it's time to break away from the old strawberry-in-the-champagne glass to tizzy up your drinkees, because I've found two gorgeous liqueurs from France that'll help you look super-flash in front of your friends and family.
Domaine de Canton ($69) is a drool-inducingly delicious ginger liqueur which has incredible purity, concentration and exotic spicy-sweetness. It's lovely on its own, but pour a splash into your glass alongside a tiny cube of granddad's crystallised ginger, then top up with good, dry bubbles and you've got a magic combination.
If ginger isn't your thing but you think berries are the business, then gift yourself a bottle of Gabriel Boudier Creme de Cassis de Dijon ($49). Not only will this beautiful bottle add an element of Moulin Rouge to your tiki bar, what's inside will make you rethink what it means to be blackcurrant.
Since 1874, Boudier has been creating some of the world's most sought-after liqueurs and spirits, and the Creme de Cassis has won gold medals across the globe. Pure and fruity on the nose with rich, powerful blackcurrant flavours and a long, lingering finish, a splash of this in a flute full of bubbles will add a scarlet fruitiness to your fizz.
Both are exclusively available through Tickety-Boo Liquor, call (09) 377 7597.

The whole explanation, Sirxxx, is exactly what arisart wrote.
Also, I was an advocate for Moria not only being alive when everyone said he had been eliminated, but also that he would return in the future, likely returned to his former stature of an imposing, fit pirate roaming the NW. Don't believe he'd become a part of Law or any one else's crew that we know though. He has too much pride for that, even if he was a dispicable, two-story, shadow-stealing leek the last time we saw him.

Heavy Duty Oilcloth Tablecloths
Sturdy, Wipe-Clean Real Fabric That Won't Peel Or Crack
Heavy Duty Oilcloth Tablecloths
Sturdy, Wipe-Clean Real Fabric That Won't Peel Or Crack
Back in the day, oilcloth used to be made by coating heavier weight cotton with linseed oil, which slowly cracked and peeled with age. This method became obsolete with the advent of noncracking plastics. Sadly, what replaced oilcloth was flimsy plastic cloth. Borrowing a page from yesteryear, our heavy-duty oilcloth is still made with real fabric, so it has the weight and drape of real cloth, yet is guaranteed to last. The oilcloth's laminated vinyl finish wipes clean and will never crack or peel. Cotton/PVC or polyester/PVC. Imported.
- Easy wipe-clean finish
- Oilcloth won't crack, peel, or stain
- Available in 5 sizes
Heavy Duty Oilcloth Tablecloths
100% Polyester/PVC: Blue Gingham, Cherries, Flag, Fruit, Kitchen,
Songbird, Tulip, White, Foliage
100% Cotton/PVC: Floral, Floral Lattice, Holiday, Holly Berry, Red Cherry
Check, Red Gingham,Tea Cup, Woodgrain
Wipe Clean. Do not machine wash or dry.

One of my good friends from high school/college had emergency surgery as a freshman to have her ovary removed due to a cyst or tumor or something. When they took it out, they found teeth and hair growing on it.

Global Education Committee
Nomination submitted by: Jaime Torres, Director of the Office of International Education
Program Overview When the St. Louis Community College (SLCC), a two-year institution in Missouri, announced its decision to make global education a priority, the Forest Park campus took the lead and created a way to make it happen. Forest Park is SLCC's urban campus, in the heart of St. Louis, with a student population that is 46% African American. To implement a plan to meet the needs of this diverse community, Forest Park convened a Global Education Committee, consisting of more than 35 campus administrators, district administrators, faculty, and staff, which now works throughout the year to implement the school's comprehensive internationalization plan. The Committee reports directly to President Morris F. Johnson, who names global education "one of SLCC-FP's three campus goals."
Key to the Committee's success is its partnerships with Washington University, St. Louis University, and community organizations, as well as an active collaboration with the Missouri Consortium for Global Education. These partnerships have resulted in a range of opportunities—both academic and co-curricular—for SLCC-FP students including a global curriculum, foreign language classes in 8 different languages, International Education Week activities, and study abroad programs and funding. The Global Education Committee is currently focusing on building SLCC-FP's Chinese studies program, expanding course offerings and increasing enrollment in Chinese language courses.
"Our institution is committed to global education, and considers infusing students with global awareness and competencies to be a key component of the College's mission to expand minds and change lives," says John W Ganio, Vice Chancellor for Education. This model program approaches internationalization organically, tapping both institutional and community resources, to devise well-thought out and comprehensive ways to remove barriers to internationalization at this diverse, urban, two-year institution.
Program Implementation Read the winning nomination, including details on how the program achieves its objectives
The members of the selection panel for this year's awards include the following leaders in international education:
Stephen DunnettVice Provost for International Education, State University of New York at Buffalo
Uliana GabaraPresident, Association of International Education Administrators (AIEA) and Dean of International Education, University of Richmond
Ulrich GrothusDirector, German Academic Exchange Service (DAAD) New York

Whether you book via our Guest Contact Centre or via our website, we will always offer you the lowest fare for which you are eligible and we will inform you if a lower fare is available via other Virgin Australia channels.
Giving Us Your Feedback
If you have a compliment or complaint then we want to hear about it. Our aim is to resolve any problems on the spot where possible, with our Virgin Australia team. However, if your problem is a bit more complex, or if you are not happy with the outcome, you can call our Guest Contact Centre for advice anytime.

Please note: To be eligible to escalate a resolution through the ACA, you will need a feedback case ID number from our Guest Relations department.

When We Need to Change Your Schedule
If your flight is changed or cancelled we will contact you in a timely manner via the details given in your booking and provide you with alternative flight details.
If the alternative flight time does not work for you, we will move you to another available Virgin Australia service, with no further cost to you (as close as possible to your original scheduled departure time and in the same class you booked).
Delays and Cancellations – Letting You Know
Sometimes flights are disrupted on the day of travel, so it is really important to give us a good contact number so we can reach you at short notice.
If we know (at least 2 hours before the scheduled departure time) that your domestic flight is going to be cancelled we will contact you (or your Travel Agent or Travel Management Company) to let you know. For international flights, we will endeavour to contact you if we know about the cancellation at least 4 hours before the scheduled departure time.
Delays and Cancellations – Those Within Our Control
If you get to the airport and find you are disrupted for reasons we believe to be within our control (e.g. due to aircraft maintenance or crew shortages), we will endeavour to get you on your way as soon as possible on another Virgin Australia service at no additional cost to you.
If you are delayed overnight in a port away from home we will arrange and pay for hotel accommodation, transfers and meals for you (limits do apply).
Delays and Cancellations – Those Outside Our Control
You might get to the airport and find you are disrupted for reasons beyond our control (e.g. delays or cancellations due to bad weather, airport terminal closures or security incidents).
If you are delayed for these kinds of reasons we will do our best to get you on the next available Virgin Australia service at no further cost to you.
Guest Requirements During Tarmac Delays
If you are delayed on board the aircraft after we've shut the doors at your departure port, or after the plane has landed, we will endeavour to provide for essential needs such as potable water, adequate food, lavatory facilities and urgent medical requirements, subject to the safety or security conditions at the time.
We will of course give particular focus to guests with special needs at this time.
- For further information regarding tarmac delays in the USA, please see our Tarmac Delay Plan.
If We Cannot Provide a Seat on Your Flight
On rare occasions we may request for volunteers to move to a later flight, or may need to ask a guest to do so. If this happens to you, you will be moved to the next available Virgin Australia service at no additional cost to you.
For Domestic and Short Haul International flights, if you are not moved to a Virgin Australia flight that is within 2 hours from your original departure time you will be provided with a credit as an apology for any inconvenience incurred as a result of the disruption. The value of any credits will be determined by Virgin Australia (consideration will be given to your departure port and disruption time).
If you are delayed overnight at a port away from home we will arrange and pay for hotel accommodation, transfers and meals for you (limits do apply).
For departures from the USA, we will provide you with compensation as per the requirements of US Denied Boarding Legislation.
Baggage Services
If your bag has not arrived at your destination with you and we find out it is on its way, we will arrange for a courier to deliver it to your hotel or home at our expense when it arrives. If your bag is delayed for more than 24 hours you will be reimbursed for basic essential items purchased as a result of the baggage delay (limits do apply). This will be done by submitting your receipts to our Guest Relations team (see "Giving us your feedback" for contact details).
If your bag is declared lost, you will be refunded any applicable baggage fees as well as being able to claim for the contents (baggage claim limitations do apply).
Guests with Special Needs
Guests with special needs and passengers with disabilities are warmly welcomed and are important to us.
- Find out how we can help if you need extra assistance when flying with us
Travel Insurance
We expect you to take out travel insurance. No matter how well we all plan, sometimes unforeseen factors can disrupt travel plans. While we do our best to ensure things run smoothly, we cannot guarantee that the occasional occurrence will not happen. Travel insurance is the most sensible protection against any occurrences that do arise.
Depending on the level of travel insurance you get, it can cover you for costs arising from things such as delays, cancellations, lost or damaged baggage, airport terminal closures or security incidents. It is important that you understand what Virgin Australia are and are not liable for and what your travel insurance will cover you against.
We respect your personal information. Your personal information will be handled in accordance with our privacy policy.

Our Commitment to the Environment
We take our commitment to minimising the impact of our operations on the environment seriously. We are committed to ensuring that our airline not only grows responsibly, but also remains focused on finding solutions that will make a low carbon aviation industry possible in the future. To that end we have worked with other Virgin airline groups to produce a document outlining our views and actions on climate change and aviation. You can reduce your carbon footprint by offsetting your flight with our "Fly Carbon Neutral" scheme.

- 7 working days for itineraries involving US sectors (in line with US Department of Transport legislation).
- 21 calendar days for sectors that do not include US sectors.
Please note the above guidelines do not include the banks processing time.
Disclosing Cancellation Policies and Other Information
Other Information
Our Terms and Conditions of Carriage outline our key responsibilities to you and also your responsibilities to us. This Guest Charter and the Terms and Conditions work hand in hand, so please be sure to read both documents.
If you have any questions about this charter, please email us at email@example.com or you can call our Guest Contact Centre.

Further Information for Guests Travelling to or from the USA only
Cancelling without penalty
If you book a fare 7 days or more prior to your flight's scheduled departure time, you may cancel your booking without penalty within 24 hours of making it, or hold a reservation at the quoted fare for 24 hours without payment. You can arrange this by calling our Guest Contact Centre.
Flight status changes
Should the status of your flight change on the day of travel, there are a number of ways you can be made aware. Within 30 minutes of a delay being known, Flight Information Display screens, our Airport Staff and our Call Centre Agents will be made aware of any flight delay over 30 minutes. The Airport Staff will make announcements detailing the flight status change. You can also check your flight status or subscribe to our flight status notification service via the Flight Status screen on the website.
