Customer Reviews
Comments: Can't say enough good things about these baits. From the quality paint jobs and hooks to the loud rattle these baits simply catch fish. If you aren't throwing an XB-1 you are putting yourself at a disadvantage
From: Chandler: Texas 1/14/17
From: Ricky: North Carolina 12/19/16
Comments: Not many square bills in these price range have a tungsten weight transfer system that I can think of. Has a very small one knocker type rattles, which I think is good that it doesn't spook off the fish nearby. Overall, I'm very pleased and impressed with Xcite XB-1.
From: Chuong: San Jose, CA 12/11/14
Comments: I had a 34 lbs 5 fish limit on the XB-1 silent last week here in south texas! Big bass eat this bait. Blue Char or ghost minnow are the best colors for me. I put #4 bronze round bend gamakatsu hooks on and get to slinging it. Best square bill I've ever used.
From: James: Euless, TX 9/1/14
Comments: I purchased 4 of these during a tw sale and the first time i used them was on a short pre-spawn trip on the ca delta where i hooked and landed a 8.0lber and a 6lb 14oz fish. The next time i went out i caught a 6lb 8oz fish. This bait accounts for my top 3 biggest bass. The paint does wear where the front hook makes contact with the body, however they still catch fish, very durable bill as well and is the only crankbait brand i own where i have not broken the bill. The hooks are super sharp and the 8lber i caught was hooked just barely outside the mouth but these hooks held on for the minute it took to land him. I think what makes these baits unique is the tungsten knocker witch helps casting and makes a nice loud knock on the retrieve. Pick some up and you wont regret it.
From: Simon: Delta, CA 5/12/14
Comments: Xcite Baits did it again. The weight transfer system and the available colour range makes these my new favourite square-bills. With the advantage of the tungsten weight these babies cast a country mile, even in the toughest wind!
From: Brent: South Africa 3/28/14
Comments: The detail on these baits are just as good as a Lucky Craft but half the cost, and they flat out catch fish! The weight transfer system lets you cast it a mile and also make perfect pitches. Try one and you won't be disappointed
From: Unknown: USA
Comments: Scooped one up to try. Hooks are pimp, knock from inside the bait is killer, and the bluegill color is dy-no-mite. Already have caught some fish on it and ITS EARLY JANUARY. Sorry for yelling but these things Xcite me. HAHA...get it? I spelled EXCITE like the name of the bait co. I'm rad.
From: Jay6: USA
Comments: These have worked great for me!!! The weight transfer is awesome! Let the bait hit the water give it a split second for weight to roll forward and fish away! I was hitting bottom in 4' of water with 15 pound test.
From: Tim: TX
Comments: I bought 3 of these in different colors to give these a try and I'll be honest they are good crankbaits. Their sound profile is not the same as some of the other square bills out there. Other than that they catch fish just like any other square bill in my box. I don't have anything negative to say about these because they are all around good baits with a good color selection. I have a wide selction of H2O Express crankbaits from Academy that cost half what these baits cost and they catch fish just as much as these do..Good baits if you don't mind the price.
From: Oscar: Mesquite,TX
Comments: I picked up one of these from a local tackle shop that stock's all the latest lures and gear. I picked up the shad color and was immediately impressed with the detail and color. That's where the love affair stopped. While this bait does cast good I found it to not run very great. Also fishing in water 5ft and less and I have never felt the bottom with this crank! It like it dive to around 2 maybe 3 ft and stops. Just not my cup of tea. I wouldn't say these are the best square bills on the market. Not even close.
From: Nathan: Fort Worth, Tx.
Comments: TW is up to date!! they just put this up and these are the best squarebills on the market!!!!

FlightSafetyBoeing and Virgin Blue Select Brisbane For Australian Training Centre10/12/2002
SEATTLE, December 09, 2002 - FlightSafety Boeing Training International (FSB) and Virgin Blue Airlines today announced Brisbane as the proposed site for a new joint training centre located in Australia – the first in the region for both companies.
The state-of-the-art facility will be built at Brisbane Airport. Construction is set to begin early next year, with the training centre expected to take its first intake of customers by the end of 2003.
Particularly convenient to Australian and Asia/Pacific airline customers, FSB's and Virgin Blue's Brisbane Training Centre will provide:
Full-flight simulators, which accurately produce all of the sensations of flight.
Pilot training capability on various aircraft types.
Aircraft maintenance training capability featuring networking and other advanced technology training devices.
Learning tools at the centre including workstations equipped with self-guided, computer-based training, allowing students to progress at their own pace.
"This is a very exciting venture for Virgin Blue, and we are proud to be associated with an organisation that is recognised worldwide for its training quality and standards," said Brett Godfrey, chief executive of Virgin Blue.
He said the venture cements Brisbane and Queensland as Virgin Blue's headquarters and gives the airline vital locally based aviation infrastructure to avoid sending pilots offshore for type ratings or simulator sessions.
"We are confident this partnership will mean great things for local aviation, great things for Queensland and great things for those who will benefit from using the facility," Godfrey said.
Andrew Peacock, president of Boeing Australia, said the training centre is yet another demonstration of Boeing's commitment to Australia and its local airline partners.
"This is a sizeable investment that will add to our already significant presence in southeast Queensland," Peacock said. "The centre will add considerable economic value to the local economy, and on behalf of the 3,000 Boeing employees already in Australia, I welcome a new division of the company to our country."
FlightSafetyBoeing President Pat Gaines said FlightSafetyBoeing's growth in Australia is part of the company's global expansion strategy of establishing a worldwide network of training centres.
"We are committed to ensuring that FSB continues to provide cost effective and total training solutions to support airline operators world-wide; and continues to increase training value to our customers including placing our training centres at customer locations," Gaines said.
FSB will manage and operate the training centre and will own three of the four full-flight simulators in the new training facility. Virgin Blue will own the fourth. FSB's Gaines added that the Brisbane Training Centre is the company's fourth in the Asia/Pacific region, joining the existing FSB training centres in Kunming, P.R.C.; Seoul, Korea; and its affiliate centre in Singapore. In addition, FSB operates numerous training centres in Europe and the Americas.
FlightSafetyBoeing is a newly acquired wholly owned subsidiary of The Boeing Company within the Commercial Aviation Services group. The FSB organization is a global force in airline training and is the world's premier full-service provider of airline training. FSB provides an expanding and integrated services portfolio that comprises training materials, flight, technical, and cabin crew training. Working alongside Boeing and its subsidiaries, FSB is able to provide customers with a complete range of global air transport solutions. FSB supports the world's aviation community with 70 full flight simulators in 20 locations in nine countries on five continents.
Virgin Blue is Australia's award-winning low fare airline servicing every capital city and a number of regional destinations across the country. The carrier operates a fleet of 28 brand new, high-tech Next Generation Boeing 737 aircraft and employs over 2,400 team members. Based in Brisbane, QLD, Virgin Blue is committed to long-term low fares and outstanding customer service.

Dear Sir:
We are in the process of repairing cracks in our old (15 yrs.) fiberglass shower. My husband used a fiberglass repair kit purchased from Home Depot and so far so good. However, I'm aware that there is a product that can be sprayed on that will give the bottom of the shower a slip resistant texture. Do you know what it is and where I can purchase it?
Thank you.

Great For the Rain!
"The Storm by Cougar Street Rain Boot is absolutely great! I live in New York, and walking around in the city, I get a lot of use out of my shoes- and when it rains here, it pours! And I'm always stuck walking in the rain. The Storm by Cougar Street's waterproof exterior allows me to keep my feet dry, and the fleece lining keeps me warm as well as comfortable. I would definitely recommend these boots to any one!"

"I got these boots on sale. I ordered my true size and they fit perfectly! They are lined with a soft cloth material. When I tried them on, I tried them on without socks. They slid right on. When I walked with them on around the house, I didn't want to take them off. They are so comfortable!-easy on easy off. I love boots but when it rains & it's cold, I can still look very stylish without ruining my good leather ones. They aren't heavy at all. They will become my favorite winter boots-rain or shine. Buy them quick before they sell out. Very happy with my purchase."

Sadly, very sadly, disappointed
"I ordered these boots and I was extremely excited that I was able to locate such a wonderful deal, and they looked great! I believe it was my favorite purchase (in this order). :) I just knew they would be super cute, comfortable, and dry for the cold, wet days that I have to walk my dogs. RAIN, SLEET OR SNOW... Regardless, they ARE comfortable, they are cute, they do keep my feet dry. However thank god I purchased them for outdoors, and didn't intend on wearing them anywhere, because on our first "trip" the entire top layer of one of the boots literally just peeled away. I was picking up slivers of black paint lining off of my carpet for days. So basically the material is NOT as advertised, and I would not recommend this purchase unless you want a pair of great boots, that you will ONLY wear to walk dogs :("

: Hi all. I'm in negotiations to sell my house and one of the things the potential buyers asked is that I have frost free hose bibs installed on two outside faucets. I've been in this house for 10 years and have never had any problems ( the house is 60 years old). None of my neighbors have them and, sorry guys- i'm not a plumber, I've never heard of them. How necessary are frost free hose bibs in Boise,ID and do any of you have an idea what it should cost to replace them? Thanks.

HP Announces 10" ElitePad 900 Windows 8 Tablet with "Smart Jackets"
Brandon Hill
October 1, 2012 12:01 AM
Recipient E-mail
Sender E-mail
HP's ElitePad 900 packs an Atom processor and up to a 64GB SSD
Peter Misek, an analyst for Jeffries,
recently made the statement
that "HP will aggressively attack the smartphone and tablet markets, which we believe are risky investments." Well with today's announcement of the 10" ElitePad 900, it appears that HP is looking to attack the tablet market, but we wouldn't call it an aggressive move by any means.
The ElitePad 900 starts off with some promise thanks to its inclusion of an Intel Atom Z2760 processor (
Clover Trail
backed with 2GB of memory) that should provide plenty of backwards compatibility with existing apps for the Windows platform. The tablet also hits the right notes when it comes to its form-factor -- it features an aluminum body (MIL-spec 810G) that measures just 9.2mm thick and weighs 1.5 pounds.
The device offers a choice of 32GB or 64GB SSD, an 8MP camera on the rear, and a 1080p-class camera on the front for video conferencing. HP even includes the option of 3G/4G wireless connectivity. In addition, the ElitePad 900 supports pen-input for those that prefer more precision than your fingertips can provide.
Things get even more interesting when you take a look at what HP is calling its line of Smart Jackets. The Productivity Jacket provides an integrated keyboard and SD card slot while the Expansion Jacket provides USB and HDMI connectivity along with an integrated battery for added runtime. Other accessories include a rugged case that provides "military-grade" protection and a docking station that allows an external keyboard and monitor to be connected.
Another big boon is the fact that the ElitePad 900 can be serviced easily using what HP calls an "industry-unique service tool". Using the tool, the motherboard, screen, and battery can be easily accessed for quick repair/replacement. This also eliminates the need to send the device off to be repaired, potentially putting sensitive data at risk.
So with so much promise, how could we possibly be disappointed with the ElitePad 900? Well, the tablet is only equipped with a meager 1280x800 display in an era when even lowly
Kindle Fire HDs
are packing 1920x1080 screens (
the Nook HD+
is even higher still at 1920x1280). There are a number of Android tablet that provide a screen resolution of 1920x1080, most Windows 8 tablets announced so far are at least 1366x768, and
the iPad trumps all
with a screen resolution of 2048x1536.
And with such a "low" screen resolution, you can't even
snap Metro apps
to the side of the screen in Windows 8. That is a big oversight in our opinion.
HP ElitePad 900 Expansion Jacket
The other disappointment is that HP is only gearing the ElitePad 900 at business users, meaning that the tablet will only be sold through its enterprise channel. And although HP is announcing the ElitePad 900 today, it won't ship until January of 2013. So we won't know any pricing details until closer to launch.
ElitePad 900 with Dock
"We are going to continue to work with them to make sure they understand the reality of the Internet. A lot of these people don't have Ph.Ds, and they don't have a degree in computer science." -- RIM co-CEO Michael Lazaridis

In the monthly school board meeting on Feb. 6, Wayne Roberts, the networking teacher at Emery High School, was recognized as the Networking Teacher of the Year by Carl Lyman, Information Technology Education Specialist from the Utah State Office of Education. This is an award sponsored by a partnership of Novell and the Utah State Office of Education. For his outstanding work in teaching Novell's Certified Netware Administration course and Linux Fundamentals, he received a plaque and a cash award.
Wayne has been teaching networking classes at Emery High School for the past eight and half years. As a certified netware engineer he has taught Novell CNA class and recently has been teaching Linux in his classes. Each year Novell and the USOE have sponsored a Young Networking Professional for outstanding high school seniors who have taken networking classes. Robert's has had a student win one of the awards seven out of the past eight years. Many of his students have also taken and passed industry certification tests which are recognized throughout the world.
Wayne is able to bring real world experience into his class from the work that he does as computer technician for Emery School District. He said, "I try to find ways to improve my teaching techniques in creating practical scenarios for my students to practice their skills. I enjoy the opportunity I have to work with students at Emery High School through my class, and informally as students ask me questions about technology when I work at the various schools."
Wayne grew up in Kemmerer, Wyo. where he graduated from high school. He attended the University of Wyoming for two years before transferring to Southern Utah University where he received a Bachelor's degree in Computer Science. After graduating from college, he took courses and became a Certified NetWare Engineer.
His first job was a 'Help Desk' monitor. Within a year working for the company he worked with a group of five other individuals, installing a NetWare 4.0 system for 500 users. After one year, he was hired by Weider Nutrition International in Salt Lake City. Here he was the network engineer at their corporate office originally in charge of maintaining two NetWare 4.11 servers. Soon he was responsible for networked workstations in cities in the United States and Canada.
Wayne was hired by the Emery School District April 1997 as a computer technician. After a couple of years he was asked if he would be interested in teaching a Novell CNA course that was being offered at Emery High School. He accepted the job and worked to obtain a teaching license and has been teaching students networking ever since.

History in the Paint Public Art Tour
In the summer of 2013, a collective of artists, called the Walldogs, came to Kewanee, IL to paint 15 historic murals depicting the long history and heritage of the city. These paintings can be found on many downtown facades, as well as at the Amtrak Station that brings new people to the area, every day. About this mural: Kewanee was founded in May of 1854, when the Military Tract Railroad was routed to the north of Wethersfield. The town founders were from Wethersfield Township to the south, Sylvester Blish, Ralph Tenney, Henry Little and Sullivan Howard, plus Nelson Lay from Wisconsin. Colonel Berrian, civil engineer who supervised the laying of the track through this area, was asked to choose a name and he decided on "Kewanee," a Winnebago Indian word for "prairie chicken." In 1921, Wethersfield's 2,000 people asked to be annexed to Kewanee with its 16,000. That 18,000 would turn out to be Kewanee's peak population.
Bishop Hill State Historic Site
Four historically significant buildings are owned by the State of Illinois and are maintained as part of the Bishop Hill State Historic Site. These architectural treasures are the two-story Colony Church (1850), the three-story Colony Hotel (1852-ca. 1860), the Boys Dormitory (ca. 1850), and the Colony Barn (mid-1850s) that has been relocated behind the Hotel. In addition, the central village park contains a reconstructed gazebo and war monuments. On the south edge of the village, stands a new brick Museum to house a comprehensive collection of paintings by colonist and self-taught artist, Olof Krans (1838-1916). Hours and days of operation change with the season. Please call to confirm your visit.
CITY:Bishop Hill
This covered bridge is located 1 1/2 miles north of Princeton on Rt. 26. One of five remaining covered bridges in Illinois, this bridge was built in 1863 and is still open to traffic. It crosses Big Bureau Creek and was once part of the Peoria-Galena Trail. This beautiful landmark is a delight for artists, photograpers and nature lovers. It is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. The 149 foot span was built at a cost of $3,148.57.
Hennepin Canal Parkway State Park
The Hennepin Canal State Park, a 104-mile linear park, is a rustic, historic, educational, and recreational jewel spanning five counties and includes the entire width of Henry County with access points in Annawan, Atkinson, Geneseo, and Colona. It offers an up-close look at a fascinating piece of transportation history. It is popular with bicyclists who ride from town to town exploring the history, dining, lodging, and entertainment possibilities as they travel. The canal multi-purpose recreational trail is a portion of the American Discovery Trail, a 6,800-mile coast-to-coast trail devoted to non-motorized use. It is also part of the Grand Illinois Trail, a 535-mile loop through northern Illinois. The tree-lined park is a refuge with prairie restorations and wetlands slicing through corn and soybean farmland. Home to diverse flora and fauna, it has become a favorite for bird watchers and prairie enthusiasts. It offers numerous year-round opportunities to boat, hike, bike, fish, ride horseback, snowmobile, ice skate, and cross-country ski. Explore Henry County's jewel – the Hennepin Canal. In wintertime experience the longest snowmobile trail in the state -- 91 miles on the tow path. You can use the ice at your own risk, but pay heed to the locks, bridges and culverts where the ice likely is thinner than the rest of the canal. Bring your blades, skating along the canal is free! Keep in mind the rule is there must be 4" of snow and 6" of frost on canal for route to be open. Call the Visitor Center for automated message.

It could also be that I'm not used to such a high heel. If you are the queen of high high shoes you should be fine. :)"

Big Night For St. Louis as Rangers Fall in Tampa 5-0
Jim Cerny
From start to finish Monday night at the Tampa Bay Times Forum it was Martin St, Louis' night, and the Rangers were the unfortunate victims as the Lightning defeated New York 5-0, bringing to an end the Rangers six-game road winning streak.
St. Louis, the popular Lightning captain, was feted before the contest for having played his 1,000th NHL game last week in a road contest out in Los Angeles, with his former teammate and current Rangers alternate captain Brad Richards taking part in the pre-game ceremony. Then last year's NHL scoring champion went out and scored twice on breakaways, and later added an assist, to help lead his Lightning to victory.
Though the Rangers had more shots on goal and the better of the scoring chances they could not contend with the opportunistic St. Louis and his 'mates, in particular goalie Ben Bishop who made 37 saves, including 17 in the first period, to run his career record to a perfect 4-0-0 against New York. The Rangers were blanked for the fifth time this season, while Bishop earned his second shutout of the season.
Bishop's performance was very similar to that put forth by Henrik Lundqvist in the Rangers 3-2 victory last Thursday in Dallas---one in which the Rangers were outplayed by a wide margin early, but were able to take an early lead and eventually win behind his 41 saves. On Monday night, though, Lundqvist was not nearly as fortunate as St. Louis twice was sprung on breakaways, and then late in the second period a non call by the referees led to another odd-man rush score against the Rangers No. 1 netminder.
Cam Talbot replaced Lundqvist in goal after two periods of play. Lundqvist surrendered four goals on 22 shots, while Talbot allowed one on three shots.
Tampa raced to a quick 2-0 lead before the game was much more than three minutes old on Monday. 20 year-old Nikita Kucherov, making his NHL debut, scored on his first shot during his first NHL shift to give the Lightning a 1-0 lead 2:12 into the contest. St. Louis then took off past a diving Marc Staal after a turnover and beat Lundqvist on a breakaway 58 seconds later to put the visitors in a two-goal hole.
Though they were shaken, the Rangers regrouped nicely and ran off a string of nine consecutive shots on goal against Bishop, but could not put one past the 6-foot-7 goaltender. The line of Rick Nash-Richards-Ryan Callahan created numerous prime scoring opportunities, while Dominic Moore was stoned point-blank late in the first period and Anton Stralman was flat-out robbed by Bishop's glove off an open snap shot from the slot.
There was more of the same in the second period as the Rangers pressed, but could not solve Bishop, who was also shaken up by a rising Staal shot that hit him in the neck just 90 seconds into the middle stanza. Bishop shook the pain off and later on stood tall when the Lightning killed off 62 seconds worth of a Ranger 5-on-3 power play in which Nash drew both of the penalties against Alex Killorn and B.J. Crombeen.
The Rangers were 0-for-6 on the power play Monday night, while their penalty kill responded with a perfect 3-for-3 performance.
St. Louis scored hs second of the game, and 10th of the season, 3:12 into the second period to make the score 3-0. After a turnover in the neutral zone by the Rangers, Valteri Filpulla slipped a pass to St. Louis between New York defensemen Ryan McDonagh and Dan Girardi and the 5-foot-8 winger finished by roofing the puck past Lundqvist.
Late in the second period Richards was taken to the ice in the offenisve zone with a stick between his legs. Officials failed to make a penalty call against Tampa and the Lightning's Teddy Purcell scooped up the puck and took off down right wing. Purcell rifled a shot past Lundqvist off the odd-man rush at 16:52 while Richards screamed at the officials in vane. It was symbolic of the Rangers night.
Purcell netted his second of the game off a 3-on-1 rush, beating Talbot with 61 seconds left to play in the third period. St. Louis earned the primary assist, picking up his third three-point game of the season.
Monday's loss was the Rangers first on this five-game road trip, which began with wins in Dallas on Thursday and in Nashville on Saturday. It also marked the first time the Rangers had allowed more than three goals in a game in 17 games, dating back to a 4-0 loss in New Jersey on October 19th. Since that contest the Rangers had held opponents to two goals or fewer 15 times.
The road trip continues on Thanksgiving Eve when the Rangers visit the Florida Panthers in Sunrise, before it closes Friday afternoon with a tilt in Boston against the Bruins.

sooo cute, but ....
"Got the green. They were beautiful. There was no way I could pull off the heel, so I had to return them. I did not find them at all comfortable and envy those who say they were. Oh well. If you're not a pro in heels I would say "beware", but as for appearance - they are adorable and the green is a great color."

Not for the Narrow
"I wanted to love these shoes. I even bought them in two colors. I had to return both pairs though. I have narrow feet and because the ankle straps are not adjustable, my entire foot would slip out when I tried to walk. If you have wider feet, these may work for you! They are otherwise beautiful, lightweight and great for summer!"

Stewarts Market was the place to be for a sting in the arm as people gathered for their annual flu shot. These shots were administered by the Community Nursing Services Home Health and Hospice.
The CNS has clinics planned in Emery County on Sept. 25 and Oct. 9 from 1-5 p.m. at their Castle Dale office at 55 West Main Street. Bring your Medicare card and insurance information for proper billing. A clinic is also planned for Oct. 17 at Hometown Market in Huntington from 10:30 a.m.-3:30 p.m.
An all-day clinic is planned for Sept. 21 from 8 a.m.-5:30 p.m. at the Castle Dale office of the Southeastern Utah Health Department located at 25 West Main in the Boyd's Pharmacy building. The Castle Dale office holds a vaccination clinic each Monday from 8:30-11:30 a.m. or appointments can be made. The seasonal flu vaccine is available at the Huntington and Price office and according to David Cunningham, Health Officer/Director; people need to protect not just themselves, but others by getting the vaccine now.
Cunningham said the health department is starting its seasonal flu vaccination clinics about a month earlier than in previous years. "The vaccine manufacturers purposely finished up production and distribution of this year's seasonal flu vaccine so that it could be provided to the public ahead of when the H1N1 flu vaccine would be available in later October and during November.
"Who should receive the H1N1 vaccine and when and where the vaccine will be available will be publicly announced during October," Cunningham said.
Besides the seasonal flu vaccine Cunningham reminds everyone to practice good hygiene throughout the entire flu season to reduce the risk of getting sick, such as:
Cover your mouth and nose with disposable tissue when you cough or sneeze and throw away the tissue.
Wash your hands with soap and water or use an alcohol-based hand sanitizer.
Stay away from other people when you are sick.
People recommended for the seasonal flu vaccination during the 2009-10 flu season are:
Children aged 6 months up to their 19th birthday
Pregnant women,
People 50 years of age and older,
People of any age with certain chronic medical conditions (heart disease; kidney disease; lung diseases like asthma; metabolic diseases like diabetes; blood disorders like anemia; a weakened immune system caused, for example, by cancer or cancer treatment, HIV/AIDS, or steroid therapy; or certain conditions such as neuromuscular disorders that can cause breathing problems),
People who live in nursing homes and other long term care facilities,
People who live with or care for those at high risk for complications from the flu, including:

Household contacts of persons at high risk for complications from the flu,

Energetic is the word that best describes my mom, Theresa Handlos, of Menomonee Falls, Wisconsin.
When my sisters, Marie, Dianne and Laura, and I were growing up, Mom not only cooked every night for us and our father, but also for members of our extended family of aunts, uncles and cousins who frequently joined us at the dinner table.
We always ate together as a family, and Mom made her substantial meals from scratch—fresh, not canned, vegetables and no boxed mixes.
Mom grew up in Austria near the Hungarian border and moved to the United States at age 13. Her cooking reflects traditional Austrian dishes and those of our dad's German heritage, in addition to American favorites she learned over the years.
She is still active in her church and in the Austrian Club and bakes often for various functions. She's constantly on the go and rarely sits down.
One of Mom's most memorable meals starts with Old-World Pork Roast accompanied by bread dumplings. Now that my sisters and I are spread across the country, we prepare this savory roast and dumplings for our own families, but we all agree that no one makes it quite like Mom. When we come home for a visit, we hope it's on the menu.
Her Endive Salad with Potatoes is unique, with slices of cooked red potatoes nestled among the greens and a deliciously tart dressing.
Mom never had a problem getting us kids to eat our vegetables when she served Colorful Veggie Bake. The first time she made this comforting casserole, it was an imediate hit with everyone in the family.
One of her wonderful desserts that never fails to draw compliments is Cherry Cheese Torte. Pretty enough to serve to company, this impressive-looking dessert is easy to make and tastes absolutely scrumptious.
Mom treated us to a variety of other ethnic dishes—many that she learned from her mother—such as plum dumplings, cheese strudel, chicken goulash, paprika potatoes and hot buttered noodles with poppy seeds.
We traveled to Austria several times over the years and enjoyed sampling the food and seeing where Mom grew up. Every time we visited friends or relatives, they would bring out something to eat, usually a torte or pastries. It was considered rude to decline…not that we wanted to!
Mom carried out that custom in our house, always putting out "a little something" when guests stopped by. My sisters and I have adopted the tradition in our own homes, too.
Now when we get together for holidays or special occasions, Mom still likes to fuss over us by making a big meal…and rarely lets anyone help.
Her six grandchildren have learned a lot about Mom's Austrian heritage through her cooking. They call her "Oma," which is the German nickname for Grandma.
In 1998, Mom gave all four of us girls subscriptions to Taste of Home and has continued to renew them ever since. We enjoy discovering other families' favorite recipes in the magazine and are so pleased to share our mom's best meal with you!

Love this style
"I purchased these in the black and wish they had other colors, like red, fushia, or teal. These are comfortable and so cute. The first time I wore them I had them on for more than 8 hours, standing, sitting and walking. No complaints other than the heel part could use more padding. For me, these fit true to size. I normally wear a 7.5 M and these fit great. The heel isn't too high with the platform and the cutouts add some texture. If the heel padding were better, I would have given them 5 stars. I think though that they deserve a 4.5 but the rating only goes in whole numbers."

On Elise: Clover Canyon blazer, Yigal Azrouël leather pants, Lizzie Fortunato necklace, 3.1 Phillip Lim clutch. On Phoebe: By Malene Birger dress, Jenni Kayne jacket, Maison Martin Margiela booties, Clare Vivier clutch.
Beautiful optic prints are popping up everywhere this season. The bold colors, intricate graphics, and eye-catching combination are incredibly arresting. In fact, this solid-loving girl has a kaleidoscope top from Haus Alkire in her cart as we speak. Always up to showcase a new trend, two of our stylists created looks for each other proving just how easy and versatile an optic print can be.
Phoebe on Elise:
I love the way abstract and optic prints give classic silhouettes an unexpected twist. This blazer is a perfect example—the tailored lines really pop with wild color combinations. Slouchy leather pants are a cool variation on classic leather leggings, and paired with a tee, they really keep this look effortless and casual. The sleek translucent clutch and mod necklace add polish to the busy baroque-inspired print. Elise could wear this versatile outfit to work, dinner, or out for a drink with friends—pretty much anywhere!
Elise on Phoebe:
Optic prints tend to feel very slick and mod, so I decided to take a different approach and go in a more organic, textured direction. I like how this By Malene Birger dress has a rough quality while still being quite graphic—the chevron stripe looks almost hand-painted. I played into that hand-hewn quality with some more organic accessories, like a copper cuff with a natural-looking patina. The boots and coat are also rooted in earthy hues and textures, but have a clean, modern shape. I can see Phoebe wearing this to a gallery opening or out with me to see Cat Power next week!

Is Reason 4 Cool? Is Tony Hawk a good skateboarder? The answer is a resounding, "Yes!" But the question I inevitably hear is, "Why do I need to update Reason if I just use it as a virtual sound module." Now, that's an easy answer, the Thor Polysonic Synthesizer and the RPG-8 Monophonic Arpeggiator.
You've heard of Thor the Norse God of Thunder, right? Initially, I thought the guys at Propellerhead were just being silly, but this new synth is aptly named because it does produce some thunderous sounds. Take for example the Moog influenced Fat Boy bass patch, or the endlessly entertaining sequenced and rhythmic patches (such as Elastic Overdrive or Modular Funk Machine). Thor has a built-in step sequencer for some amazingly complex and funky sounds. And, if designing sounds isn't your thing, the Reason 4 Factory Sound Bank comes with a dozen folders packed full of earth shaking Thor patches: Bass, Fx, Lead Synths, Pads, Percussion, Poly Synths, Rhythmic, Sequenced, Textures, Voice and Choir, Signature Patches (patches created by well-known artist and producers), and several uncategorized patches in the Thor Patches parent folder.
At the Reason Producer's Conference in San Francisco, just before the Release of Reason 4, I distinctly heard Propellerhead product specialist James Bernard answer a question on the possibility of having an arpeggiator function in Reason with, "There will never be an arpeggiator in Reason." Clearly, he was pulling our collective leg. The RPG-8 is dope! It is a comprehensive arpeggiator with a load of parameters for shaping arpeggios. For example, Hold, Octave Shift, Velocity, Gate Length, it can generate up to a four octave arpeggio, and there are controls for introducing random and sequenced variations (such as the Pattern Steps with which you can mute specific steps in the arpeggio). Better still, the RPG-8 can be controlled by your ReWire master application. For example, in your ReWire master, assign a MIDI track's output to the RPG-8, send it a chord (or even a single note) and it will play an arpeggio using the instrument device that it is connected to in the Reason rack. Talk about cool!
For those of you with Pro Tools 7.3 and Reason 4, I'm attaching a ReWire session to show you how the RPG-8 can be controlled from an Instrument track in Pro Tools and sending an arpeggio to Thor at the same time. In the Zip folder you'll find the Pro Tools 7.3 session file and Reason 4 song file. Remember to launch the Pro Tools session first, then the Reason song file. (For those of you without Pro Tools 7.3 and Reason 4, I'm also attaching an MP3 so you can at least hear what I'm going on about.)

Another Eckstein makes his mark in the big leaguesMarch 20th, 2009, 7:22 am by Earl Bloom, staff writer
Rick Eckstein, the older brother of San Diego Padres second baseman and 2006 World Series MVP David Eckstein, is already making his mark as the Washington Nationals hitting instructor.
He was on Manager Davey Johnson's 2008 Olympics staff in Beijing, and came to the Nationals as a September callup last year from Triple-A Columbus. Foxsports.com's Ken Rosenthal offers this ancedote:
The Nats are raving about new hitting coach Rick Eckstein, the older brother of Padres second baseman David Eckstein.
"I don't know when he sleeps," outfielder Austin Kearns says. "I'm serious — he watches tape after tape after tape. And he's always in the (batting) cage."

Who makes his angels spirits and his ministers a flame of fire

BRETHREN, God has put all things under his son's feet and has made him the head over all things for the church, which is his body, the fulness of him who fills all in all. And you he made alive, when you were dead through the trespasses and sins in which you once walked, following the course of this world, following the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that is now at work in the sons of disobedience. Among these we all once lived in the passions of our flesh, following the desires of body and mind, and so we were by nature children of wrath, like the rest of mankind.

Shopping coupon codes and vouchers have always been in demand. With online shopping, they became even more popular for their offers and discounts. Coupons were first introduced by manufacturers to promote their businesses. However, increasing demand from consumers have turned coupons into instant shopping tools which are beneficial for both parties. Some people consider coupons to be money saving experts. There are valid reasons to find and use coupon codes before shopping online. They help you cut costs and make the most of your shopping experience.
Where to Find Coupons and Vouchers
There are many different kinds of coupons. However, the most common are the manufacturer's coupons. A manufacturer's coupon can get you a good discount on a specific product. As the name suggests, such coupons are printed and distributed by manufacturers' of products. Most of the stores accept manufacturer's coupons. This is because the company reimburses the store for the discount.
There are many stores which also offer their own coupon codes and vouchers. In most cases, a store's coupons only get you a discount on specific products. However, these coupons can also get you a good discount on your overall expenses. At times, such coupons can also provide other benefits like free shipping, extended warranty and so on.
Some manufacturers and stores also send coupons to customers who request them through a company's official website. It is quite easy to receive coupons from these stores and manufacturers. It is as easy as looking for links to deals and offers on various ecommerce websites. Some websites even collect shopping coupons online. Thus, you can just print out your discount and take it to an offline store.
These days, you can easily find numerous websites that allow you to list coupons you may have found on the internet. You can trade these coupons for others that may be even more useful. In fact, for a fraction of your savings after using a coupon, you can even purchase some coupon codes and vouchers for other deals and offers. Many auction websites also list coupons for sale.
You need to understand that not all stores accept coupons. Some of them don't even accept coupons belonging to manufacturers. Most of the stores selling in bulk or already offering low prices refuse coupons. Sometimes, it can be time consuming and expensive for stores to process coupons. If a business is refusing coupons, it could be a simple way to cut costs.
Using Shopping Coupons for Your Benefit
It is quite easy to find the right kind of coupons for specific products. However, it can be a bit difficult to use those coupons to their maximum potential. Although using coupons on a standard product can save some of your money, you can significantly increase your savings by combining coupons and sales. However, you will require some good knowledge of products and normal prices.
Before offering products on sale, many stores tend to raise products' prices. Thus, your savings are much lower than you expect. But it still offers an illusion of a good deal. You can avoid this tactic with a price book. You should maintain a list of normal prices for commonly purchased products.
Since most customers and families use the same products and brands on a regular basis, it becomes very easy to create a price book. You just need to write down the prices you paid on those specific items or products. This will allow you to make out when a sale is a good deal and when you should combine your coupons with it. This way, you will be able to get the best possible prices.
Although coupons are specifically designed to help you save money, you need to understand that they can also make you lose some. There are many shoppers who just clip coupons offering some better deals, whether they normally use the item being discounted or not. Some shoppers also purchase certain products because they offer good deals, but never actually use these products in future. The key is to remember that it's not a deal if you are not using the product.
Other Things You should Know about Online Shopping Coupons
Here are some other things you should know about coupons :
- Bonus Points – Most of the online shopping coupons are available with attractive cash discounts. These coupons can be easily clubbed with order placement. While clubbing coupons with order placement, you can get a 'spot' cash discount. Moreover, you can also earn an extra bonus point. Sometimes, this bonus point can also be converted into cash.
- Second Purchase – Most of the online shopping coupons offer some great discounts on second purchase. Such coupons codes and vouchers help you in budget control. Most of the time, they are used for promotion and marketing. Since these coupons are aimed at utility shopping, their validity is prolonged. Usually, shopping coupons from food outlets offer such 'second-time' discounts. They help you plan the next meal on a budget.
- Electronic Gadgets – In the last few years, online sales of mobile phones and other electronic gadgets have increased significantly. You can easily purchase these products with discount coupons and save a lot of your hard-earned money. Sometimes, coupons and vouchers for buying these products also get you free shipping. A cash discount with free shipping can save you a significant amount of money. However, you should never compromise the quality of products for saving some money.
- Gifts – Online shopping coupons are also perfect for buying gifts for your loved ones. They can save you a lot of money while buying gifts. With shopping coupons, shoppers can send purchased gifts to recipients and save some money on travel cost. Besides this, coupons also reduce prices of gift items. These days, branded products are also offered on discounts. Some reputed shopping portals offer coupons and vouchers to get some good discounts on branded products.
- According to industry experts, shopping coupons can save your money in a lot of different ways. Using shopping coupons has become one of the most trusted ways of saving money and buying products on a budget. This may be one of the most important reasons why coupons and vouchers are called 'expert money savers'.

Canada advances to quarterfinals at NORCECA junior women's volleyball championships
TIJUANA, Mexico – Canada delivered another strong performance at the NORCECA (North, Central America and Caribbean Volleyball Confederation) junior women's volleyball championships on Wednesday in a 17-25, 25-12, 25-18, 25-23 round robin loss to the Dominican Republic, one of the gold medal favourites at the tournament.
The Canadians, represented by the national 18U champions Brandon Tri-Star Storm, conclude the round robin at 1-1 for second place in their pool. They advance to the quarterfinals on Thursday with their opponent to be determined based on the outcome of later matches Wednesday.
"It was probably one of the best games we ever played," said middle Meaghan Robertson who earned eight points for Canada. "We knew they were going to come back strong after the first set but we continued to play hard and every point mattered. We made plays that we've never made before."
Lisa Barclay led the Canadian attack with 15 points, Jennifer Dixon added 10 and Erika Buchanan nine. Dixon and Barclay had two services aces each and Dixon was also the team leader in digs with seven.
"The biggest challenge for us was their speed on offence,'' said Robertson. "It was very fast. Their libero was particularly strong and we had difficulties keeping it away from her. Still we've gained a lot of confidence so far and we are ready for more."
The Dominicans win the pool with a 2-0 record and Costa Rica, 0-2 goes to the consolation round. Cuba and Puerto Rico showdown for top spot in pool B later Wednesday as do Mexico and the U.S., in pool C.

|At Marathon Grill.
And despite numerous occasions where the food and service were excellent, this week we had a subpar experience with really lousy food. It was diappointing and I'm still sad about it.
We get to the restaurant and we're greeted right away and shown to a nice corner booth with the window that opens to the street.
"Hey, if we can't pay our bill we can just jump out and high-tail it outta here," I said, sticking my arm out the window.
He laughed. "Yeah, how easy would that be?"
Then I remembered that he was like a track star and if we did run, he'd definitely get away. I'd the slow girl flip flopping along who got caught by the restaurant employees. Also I hate doing anything that requires moving quickly.
"Or we can just pay for our food," I tell him, settling the matter.
We order waters, I get a coffee and boyfriend opts for the fresh-squeezed orange juice. The OJ is out of this world, but it rings in at a hefty $4 for about 10 ounces. The coffee is strong, flavorful and piping hot. Love it.
I order 2 eggs over easy with multi-grain toast and breakfast potatoes. I ordered a side of bacon. Boyfriend orders the blueberry stuffed French toast. If that boy sees French toast on the menu, he orders it, no matter what. Check out Marathon's brunch menu.
|Toast that doubles as a ninja star!
A food runner drops off our meals. He tries to run off quick but I stop him with an "Excuse me, can you bring me some Tabasco?"
I look over at boyfriend's plate and I notice that he was missing the butter or syrup. The food runner comes back with the Tabasco sauce and boyfriend asks him for syrup. He comes back with the syrup and as he's leaving, boyfriend says, "Oh, I wanted butter too."
I was annoyed.
If you're running someone's food, you need to bring all the items necessary to eat that food. He should have brought us the butter, syrup. It's annoying to have to wait for someone to bring you syrup when your food's in front of you getting cold. Or our server should have stepped over to ask us if our food came out alright.
I picked up a slice of the bacon and it wilted fully into a greasy limp blob. I put it back because I hate gooey bacon and I won't eat it.
I was sad.
I turned my attention to my multi-grain toast. It was unbuttered and hard as a piece of wood. I struggled to break it and it cracked open with an audible snap.
"Oh my god," boyfriend says. "Ask them for new toast, you can't eat that."
"I feel like I'm going to chip a tooth," I say, but I carefully eat it anyway.
|"Your meal comes with a side of hair..."
"No," I said, even though I really did, I just didn't feel like waiting around for them to remake it.
I had ordered my eggs over-easy but when I cut into them, the yolks were just about cooked through. Ugh. It reminded me of a flat hard boiled egg. I was pushed further into annoyance. Eggs are easy. When you're paying $7 for two eggs, toast and potato, you want your eggs cooked properly. I doused the eggs with Tobasco sauce and poked at it with my toast-rock.
Then boyfriend offers me an over-sized bite of his blueberry stuffed French toast (probably because he feels bad for me because my breakfast sucked).
|His food was delicious!
Our waiter, a guy named Dave (got his name off the check) was attentive and gave us quick service. He wasn't that sociable, which I like, because he didn't bother us with that unnecessary and intrusive banter that servers sometimes dole out. He refilled our coffee and waters without us having to ask and he was prompt with the check.
Our experience this time at Marathon Grill was really disappointing overall because usually the food is so good. We were expecting a delicious breakfast and instead mine was a total mess.
In the end, I'd still have to recommend it, hoping to chalk up this review as one bad experience. Maybe the chef just had an off day and my future trips to Marathon will be better.
At least I hope that's the case.
