The length of time for the expiration date or "best used before" date depends on the type of product, as well as the brand.
Perishable items (such as flax oils or certain probiotics) generally have shorter expiration dates. Although our warehouse is fully air-conditioned, these more fragile items are put in cold storage (freezer or refrigeration unit) for maximum freshness.
Our receiving department does its best to verify and then enter the correct expiration dates for all incoming products. However, discrepancies do occur from time to time. This being said, the exceptionally high turnover at iHerb ensures that our inventory is among the freshest in the industry.

For those of you who do not like buckwheat groats, this cereal has an extremely mild buckwheat flavor that is delicious with fruit, maple syrup and organic sausages. A perfect cereal for those with sensitive stomachs. I've been enjoying this cereal for the past 4 years!
Posted by Sprinkles on Feb 21, 2017
Very healthy product! I make breakfast cereal with it and add a pat of butter, dollop of whole cream, sprinkling of salt, and one sunny side up egg! Delicious.
Great porridge alternative

Once used, paper generally ends up in the municipal waste stream. 40% of the total waste in landfills is paper. Producing recycled paper causes 74% less air pollution, 35% less water pollution, and creates 5 times the number of jobs than producing paper from trees. It saves old-growth trees, forest eco-systems, native habitat and biodiversity. It is important to distinguish between pre-consumer and post-consumer content in recycled paper. Pre-consumer content is typically gathered from paper scraps and trimmings left over from the paper manufacturing or converting processes. These paper scraps are usually much easier to collect, and have less need to be separated, have ink removed, etc. Post-consumer waste (PWC) is paper which has been used by the end consumer and is then collected for recycling from various recycling programs. This is the best paper to buy; as it uses and creates demand for paper which would normally end up in the landfill and no trees are cut down for paper manufacturing. The actual percentage of the recycled and post-consumer recycled content is important to note when buying paper, e.g. 100% recycled 30% PCW means 70% is pre-consumer recycled and 30% is post-consumer recycled.

It's one thing to plan new spaces, but another thing to transition from where you are to where you will be. Countless hours have gone into designing spaces, getting quotes on equipment, and thinking through efficient and effective use of space. Now that such things are largely under control and winding down, attention is shifting toward moving out of the spaces so the work can begin.
There is a very narrow window of time during which everything has to be done. We end classes the first week of May and the fall semester starts mid-August. So anything we can do to hasten the start of construction is important. We are already in the process of ordering cabinetry and equipment. May should be the time for demolition and asbestos abatement. Planning is underway for storage of equipment and supplies from the affected spaces during the process. Our miniaturized version of D-Day planning is going well.
To help provide as much time as possible for construction, we have been given the green light to end our lab courses early. My microbiology course will finish a week or so early, and is actually done in the lab. We will finish the semester using VirtualUnknown(TM) Microbiology to accomplish much of the same work in simulation that we would normally do in the wetlab. Dr. Benoit is similarly finding ways to complete his courses' use of the Micro lab ahead of schedule. Edvotek kits for his immunology course have been a lifesaver! Dr. D's work in the genetics/molecular lab will likewise wind down in the next couple of weeks, and her headstart on packing nonessentials is well underway.
Like trapeze artists using perfect timing to leave one swing in order to catch the other, we are doing all we can to help the construction folks move in and complete their work easily and quickly. Then, we hope to be able to complete the maneuver by moving back in during August.

Deb If i can say that ? I am already trying to do that but she is an ex attorney in all different fields and she just has that type of mental thing towards the classes which I understand, trying to make her think about something is like trying to make Einstein to think about a question. In the seminars she is good and understanding and does answer my questions
Thank you for your suggestions

Dear Deb, oh yes, I plan to go and get a degree at a nearby University. Just sat for the SAT and waiting for the scores to come out. I have a letter from the unemployment agency to take to the colleges of my selection to help me get Financial Aid. So that's what I'm going to do as soon as my scores are mailed out the University on Dec. 28. That means I won't be able to start before next year. In the meantime I am improving myself with online computer courses, whenever I have the time, after job searches and applications.
Hi Deborah hope you had a great weekend and having a great monday, take care

Rated 4 out of 5Āby Ctbliss Love the sweater. Pretty sparkles in it that are very subtle. However one of the pitfalls of ordering things online having to seen it in person is the color is more a brown, I know it is called taupe but in the picture it looks like a lilac variation, still it is overall pretty.

cute, but I've only worn them a few times
"I own another pair of these shoes in a different color, so I was really glad I could also get them in navy. It's hard to find navy flats!I like the style, the color and fabric, and the fit. What I'm not sure about right now is the quality. I've worn these maybe 5 times, and the flat piece on the bottom of the inside is starting to come up already. There's nothing that I hate more in a shoe than when the piece under the toes comes unglued and gets stuck to your toes, or even worse, it wrinkles and will no longer lay flat, causing you to feel the wrinkles under your toes when you walk. I am hoping this will just be a non-issue and it won't get any worse because I am so grateful to finally have a pair of navy flats, but I definitely won't purchase these again if it does. For the price, I definitely expect a decent quality shoe that won't fall apart after 5-6 wearings."

Show type: Edinburgh Fringe 2003
Following last year's success of Death by Sketches, the infamous Noel James and Steve Best achieve obscurity again with a new show featuring sharp, satirical nuggets, such as Iraqnaphobia, Norman's an Island, Crab Flamenco, to name butter... fluid surrealjism.
, Steve Best
Original Review:
Between them, Noel James and Steve Best have a wealth of comedy experience and decent track records. So how, then, have they managed to produce one of the most shambolic, amateurish sketch shows on the Fringe?
The pair desperately mug their way through their painfully strained material like a couple of keen but incompetent students attempting comedy for the first, and probably last, time. They throw themselves into it with gusto, but there's just not enough funny to make it worthwhile.
Many of the sketches rely on fast-paced backchat with unfeasible comic misunderstandings and appalling puns piling into each other like carriages in a train wreck.
There are some redeeming features. Sporadic great gags lie amid the carnage, but they're pretty hard to spot - the brilliant jokes aren't given room to breathe but buried under a torrent of rubbish, while somewhere else a pun that's not even bad enough to be a groaner will be given the hard sell. It's incredibly frustrating to watch.
The duo, occasionally joined by their techie, seem to be having much more fun than their audience. Unfortunately, it isn't catching. And once they realise this, things get even more desperate as they try even harder to inject some life into the situation.
They're likeable lads, but need to apply a lot more discipline to get the most out of their limited amount of decent material.

The group responsible for Skitzaphrantic - the name of which the reviewer did not mention - is: The Hix Roobinstein. Thank you
Tom Read - 18/08/2003
This show is exactly what the fringe is about - spontatneous, experimental, and just plain mental. Some great throwaway material in here, made all the more manic because the performers were enjoying hurling the frenetic, ramshackle, barrage of comedy at the audience. There is a sick, twisted genius at work here that really left me with no time to catch my breath. It could be said that a lot of it is 'you had to be there' kind of humour, so take my advice - be there.
Lizzie Kinross - 15/08/2003
Delighting and delving into the meaning of words, this comic trio play with words like the sunlight plays with the sea. Lightly, deeply, darkly, meanings flash and sparkle; leaving the audience tingling as they are swept along in a playful tide. Surreal yet warm, their Monty Python-like sketches range from political satire to the physical comedy. Definitely got my gigglesworth. Go, titter and hoot.
Rick Jordan - 17/07/2003
Noel James is one of those comedians' comedians, but saw him putting the 'bollock' into shambolic when he played with plastic dinosaurs and Mark Felgate - tiresome man - a couple of years ago at Edinburgh. This is different. With Steve Best he's created a genuinely inspired double act who rub one another up in the best possible way. Many, many puns - a small rictus may form after a while - but inspired.

The Lady Drovers pulled off an upset, beating Southern Nazarene University 62-67 – the same spread the Crimson Storm topped the Drovers in December.
And they broke a school record while they were at it.
While the Drovers had a difficult time finding the hoop at the line, they hit 60 percent of their three-point shots. By making 12, the team tied a school record for most three-pointers made in a game.
Krista Beaty, who played her first game for the Drovers on Saturday, scored 23 for USAO and had seven rebounds and one assist.

The Hurricanes bagged maximum points in Sydney after beating the Waratahs 33-12 to keep their play-off hopes alive.
The Hurricanes bagged maximum points in Sydney after beating the Waratahs 33-12 to keep their Super Rugby play-off hopes alive.
It was a case of mission accomplished for the men from Wellington, who managed to cross the whitewash four times for the all-important bonus point that takes them into seventh on the overall standings.
On the other end of the scale, the Waratahs woes continued after slipping to a record sixth defeat on the trot thanks to the Hurricanes' first win over their trans-Tasman rivals since 2006.
It was also the Waratahs' 10th loss in total for the season, but looked capable of ending their losing drought after holding their visitors to a four-point (9-13) lead at half-time only to fall away in the second half.
The Hurricanes scored the first try of the match through future All Blacks winger Julian Savea eight minutes before half-time, and never looked back as they ended up beating the 'Tahs 20-3 in the second half.
The hosts at one stage came within one point (12-13) of the Kiwis, but unlike the Hurricanes they simply didn't capitalise on their opportunities.
Replacement hooker Motu Matu'u got the ball rolling for the 'Canes in the second half to score in the 63rd minute, before skipper Conrad Smith crossed six minutes later when Berrick Barnes rushed out of the line for an intercept.
The Hurricanes claimed their crucial bonus point when replacement halfback Chris Eaton crossed as the full-time siren.
The scorers:
For Waratahs:
Pens: Barnes 4
For Hurricanes:
Tries: Savea, Matu'u, Smith, C Eaton
Cons: Barrett 2
Pens: Barrett 3
Waratahs: 15 Bernard Foley, 14 Tom Kingston, 13 Rob Horne, 12 Adam Ashley-Cooper, 11 Drew Mitchell, 10 Berrick Barnes, 9 Sarel Pretorius, 8 Wycliff Palu, 7 Jono Jenkins, 6 Dave Dennis, 5 Kane Douglas, 4 Sitaleki Timani, 3 Sekope Kepu, 2 Tatafu Polota-Nau, 1 Benn Robinson (c).

Rudolf works on Glueckstal Colonies Archives in NDSU library
23 August 2010
Linsey Davis
The collection includes extensive family records, books, maps and family histories. The purpose of the Glueckstal Colonies Research Association is two-fold. The first is to coordinate efforts of individuals researching descendants of the Glueckstal Colonies (a group of villages established from 1808 by German colonists in what was then known as South Russia). The second is to locate, gather, organize and access all sources pertaining to researching the villages of Glueckstal, Neudorf, Bergdorf and Kassel and their daughter colonies. The organization publishes two newsletters yearly.
Rudolf, coordinator of the Glueckstal Colonies Research Association, is working with local volunteers in consultation with the GRHC staff on processing and housing the collection. There are more than 1,600 pounds of records and books that will be stored in the lower level of the library.

Love these shoes
"I work out a ton and wanted a good cross trainer. This shoe is great. Love the colors and the sole is excellent for working in the gym. They were a little tight on the top of my foot at first (I have a high instep) but after a couple of wearings they feel great."

Great shoes
"I love these shoes for their colors, but they are very narrow."
By: KP12
Location: Falls Church, VA
October 27, 2013
"I never exercise, so buying athletic shoes is difficult for me. I was initially drawn to these because I love the colors - very feminine and beautiful, but not flashy. And I'm so glad I got these because they are extremely comfortable during a walk/jog/run. I have a high arch, and these are very supportive. My only complaint is that they are a little narrow. Just FYI, they run about 1 size short. I usually wear a 6.5 but needed a 7.5 in these."

Great colors, lousy fit
"Ordered these online and will have to return them. The colors are great and they fit perfect in length, however, I found them to be very narrow. The tongue of the shoe is attached to the inside making them very difficult to get on. I don't know if this is also why they are so snug around the whole middle part of the foot, or if it is just the style, but I could not even get these on while wearing socks. I don't have wide feet and have definitely never had this problem with athletic shoes before. Since they fit in the length (once I could squeeze my foot in), I think going up a size would make them too long. I would not recommend these unless you can try them in the store first."

The Interaction of Formal and Informal Lawmaking
Mark A. Pollack

Gregory Shaffer
University of California, Irvine School of Law
February 16, 2012
INFORMAL INTERNATIONAL LAWMAKING, Joost Pauwelyn, R. Wessel & Jan Wouters, eds., Oxford University Press, 2012
Minnesota Legal Studies Research Paper No. 12-10
Informal international lawmaking (IN-LAW) is an important and increasingly common phenomenon of contemporary international life. IN-LAW, however, has not replaced formal lawmaking, but exists alongside it, with multiple, overlapping formal and informal procedures often addressing the same substantive issues in world affairs. Why would states choose to address any given issue through formal or informal lawmaking – and why might they do both simultaneously? Furthermore, once two or more formal and informal lawmaking processes are underway, how do they interact in practice? To get at these questions theoretically, we develop two distinct theoretical models, one functionalist and the other distributive, and derive predictions about the conditions under which formal and informal procedures interact in complementary or antagonistic fashion. Moving from theory to empirics, we apply the theory to a series of cases, including the regulation of genetically modified foods, the protection of cultural diversity, climate change, humanitarian intervention, intellectual property rights and the legality of nuclear weapons, exploring in each case the motivations of states in establishing formal and informal law-making systems, as well as the complementary or antagonistic interaction of these systems in practice.

Fairy Tail is out on Onemanga
Spoiler!Btw Lucy's awesome
Fairy Tail is out on Onemanga
Spoiler!Btw Lucy's awesome
i hated how this fight ended. i was hoping lucy would prove her worth and find a way to win on her own. instead she does absolutely nothing but get her ass kicked until hibiki gives her a "one time" power up for the win. blah i say, blah...
Never know though she may still remember it. He said one-time transfer anyway, not just a one time use. basically meaning she knows the spell but she wont get any more out of him. heres hoping, that way she can win by herself for a change.
LMAO, it´s rediculous how bad this ending was. Lucy gets a ´onetime powerup spell´ from nowhere and 1-hit ko wins by summoning stars >.> lol.
This chapter was awesome, Hibiki is also a lot more awesome now..
Yeah I really didn't like this battle's conclusion.
I'm hoping Lucy can grab Angel's keys, maybe even the Gemini keys!
Overall an okay chapter. Boobies everywhere is always a plus in my book >:3
Currently Reading:
Naruto, Bleach, Fairy Tail, Gantz, Medaka Box, Beelzebub, Soul Eater, Claymore, Ao no Exorcist
I couldn't really tell what the attack was... Was it some kind of star power attack? I didn't even see it hit Angel, it just sorta was all bright lights...
Cool chapter though, I wanted to see the end of this battle, and I agree, wasn't as satisfying as it could have been in Lucy found out how to beat her on her own. But the other spirits are pretty cool, like the laser one. Lucy needs some training to get into shape with these Spirits rather than just using extreme stress to bring out power!
She better get all those keys! If so Lucy will be a power house!!!
A pie in the sky?
nice chapter, im kind of wasn't really expecting lucy to beat angel on her own so it wasnt a surprise that that guy(dont know his name) helped her although if that guy had a spell like that in his data i bet he has way more spells and that means he is strong
What she needs to do now is steal all of Angel's key and learn how to kick @ss with them.

The Emery High Lady Spartans ran their basketball season record to 3-0 with two more blowout non-region victories last week. Emery hosted the Carbon High Lady Dinos on Tuesday night and the Union High Lady Cougars on Thursday night. The Carbon score was 40-24 and the Union score was 58-36.
Against Carbon, the two teams started off exactly opposite of what the final score would indicate what had occurred. Carbon scored the first nine points of the game, as they were the dominant team at the onset. Emery made a run at the end of the period to cut the deficit to 2 points as they trailed 9-7 after the first quarter.
As it turned out, that was really Carbon's only bright spot of the game as the Spartans steadily pulled away. Emery won the second quarter 9-6 and led at the half 16-15. At this point, the game was still competitive even though the Spartans had been on a 16-6 run to close the half.
Carbon never really got started in the second half, which was really kind of strange for them because they are a decent team and a team that is expected to have a good season. Emery outscored the Dinos 14-3 in the third quarter and 10-6 in the fourth quarter to win the game going away.
The Spartans defeated Union by being really good in the odd quarters of the game. Emery won the first quarter 22-15 and the third quarter 28-10 in grabbing the win. The Spartans were outscored in the other two periods 11-8.
Emery has got off to a good start this season for several reasons. While the offense is still a work in progress, as it has constantly gotten better through the first three games, the defense has been outstanding, as the Spartans have kept their opponents off their offensive game. Emery has out-rebounded their opponents in each of the games this season.
Emery is also shooting the ball much better this season. Against Carbon, Emery shot 39 percent from the field and 83 percent from the line. Against Union, Emery was 54 percent from the field and 85 percent from the line.
The two seniors on the team led the way against the Dinos. Jeridi Price and Shelby Allred each scored 13 points in the game. Ashlynn Allred scored 6 points and Kelcie Cox, Bailey Rasmussen, Lexie Huntington and Ashton Bell each scored 2 points.
Jeridi also led the team with 8 rebounds while Bailey pulled down 7 rebounds. Shelby had three. Jeridi led the team with 2 steals.
Against Union, Kelcie Cox and Bailey Rasmussen stepped up and each of these Spartan players scored 13 points each in this game to lead the team. Ashlynn Allred scored 10 points and Jeridi had 9. Other scorers were Lexie Huntington with 5 points and Shelby and Ashton with 4 points each.
Bailey had 5 rebounds and Jeridi 4 rebounds to lead the team in this department while Kelcie had 4 steals to lead the team here. After having only 5 assists against Carbon, Emery had 15 assists against Union as the team is progressing in the team aspect of the game.
Emery is at home this Tuesday night against Uintah and then will be at home again on Thursday night against North Sevier. The Spartans will be looking to improve their record to 5-0 for the season.

I think it would have to be "Storytelling". Yet storytelling has to be the oldest most basic thing known to mankind evolving with the creation of language and basic communication.
"Stay out of the cave OG, it bad in there!"
"How bad?"
"Rip you apart, eat you slowly,smells bad in there too."
"What beast lives in there, bear? Cougar? Something unseeable?"
"No, much worse than any or all of them, I call it Mywoman."
Last night what happened in my first room was pretty incredible. All house-virgins, a group of small children, teens and adults, yes I do have the wonderfully perculair advantage of my 1870 house stimulating their imaginations before they ever get out of the car.
My first room is odd, old, strange artwork (mine of course) so as I tell them about the haunted history of this old inn- schoolhouse- bordello they become engrossed in the outcome of the experince and time spent here.
Then as one teen girl was doing some question asking and adding a few remarks of her own she questioned as to how I could be a real, living person?
I slowly blocked more and more of the light coming out of my flashlight with my thumb as I said, "Now... you know.. I'm not exactly "alive".
Total darkness took the room as three teenagers who were their own group and six adults, small kids and teenagers were also their own group all vocally accellerated a sort of moan into a scream as they could tell I was moving toward them (just a small step or two) in this wonderfull yet so inexpensive, "dark".
I released the struggling beam of light from my flashlight to find the tall, thin, teenage boy had fists clenched, ready to punch "Jim the Ghost". (Even though swinging with a punch as you are sitting is usually fairly lame.)
"And what would happen if you punched a ghost?" I had to ask him.
He was to express very quick, loud curses with very little scary stimulation upon numerous ocassions, so much so that the little girls he didn't know began calling him "Pussy", then his 4 yr. old brother learned that new word and repeated it much to the dismay of his parents. (Of course everyone seemed to be very fast with the "F" word as immeadiate faux-danger overwhelmed them at every turn.)
IT all began with mere "words", storytelling.
I can tell a very convincing "Story" I have had much practise , but then maybe most seem to believe those strange tales I tell because I believe them.. because, yes, they are true and have happened.
"Life is strange, if you take the time to notice."
I built a stand so it was about 4 ft. off the floor, laid level for viewing. A couple times I was able to sneak away from the customers and persuade one of their group waiting outside (Too chicken?) to come in the house and lay in the real coffin and scare the rest of them! (Too afraid to enter the house, but OK with laying in a real coffin (possibly "used" too!)
Of course that was THE LAST thing any of them expected to find when I opened the coffin.
Then for awhile, I had a helper laying there , mask on with some gut-punch-protection for them under the clothes. After a big build-up I opened it and people went , "Oh a stupid dummy." Then we all paused ample time for them to decide it Was a dummie.
My helper had instructions not to move until the last couple of people were the only ones left in that room, then he sat up and those few screamed and began to run, knocking into the other 10 people and a Domino effect began with the screaming and banging into one another and falling.
I was about 15 feet away at the head of the group, I turned toward the action, braced myself and almost enjoyed the pretty female customer who got slammed into me by those human bowling pins! (She used to come here alot until she got out of college.)
Not sure if this counts as a scare in and of itself, but my haunt's main attraction is the way we get them to the haunt. We load them all up into the Ghoul Bus, a school bus painted black with red neon lights and the seats facing backwards. A vehicular scene from a scary movie is played in front of them, and the bus starts to move. The awesome thing about it is that the driver has practiced all year long, and is able to time the ride with the movie, so that when the vehicle in the movie turns, breaks, or speeds up, so does the bus. When the driver really hits the breaks, something will fly up on a hinge in front of the movie screen.
Since I've been there, they've used Jeepers Creepers, Final Destination 3, I Am Legend, and Ghost Rider.
In one of the main attractions, the Haunted Corn Maze, there was this one actor who had a paint-ball gun. It was of course un-loaded but would make a loud machine-gun sound when he shot it. He was laying down in the middle of an area that the visitors came up to, but on his stomach with the gun in his hand. The visitors would come up, and say "He's just a prop." Then start to back away looking for a way to get out, but then the actor would shoot the gun and scare everyone that just said he had been a prop. (:
