On November 21, 22 and 23 the Emery High Drama Department will present its second play of the season, "The Fantasticks." This musical comedy will be produced in the Emery High Auditorium and will begin at 7 p.m. each night. There is a small admission fee with family and senior citizen rates. This musical comedy is the story of two young lovers who have unknowingly been brought together by their parents. The parents have accomplished this feat by pretending to be enemies and ordering their kids not to date. The parents know that the way to get kids to do anything is to tell them "no." The problem now is how to end the charade and get the girl and boy married. They decide to hire traveling circus performers to kidnap the girl and then let the boy save her. This will bring the parents together and let the kids have an adventure. The kidnappers do their part and all looks as if it is going to be a success. But the second act lets the kids see each other in the light of day. The girl is not in distress. The boy is not so heroic. And then the kids find out that their parents were behind the scheme from the beginning.
The boy goes off to seek his fortune and the girl falls in love with one of the circus performers. The young man is cheated by his companions and the girl is jilted by the new boyfriend. In the end the kids come to learn about what love is and about being happy with what you've got. The music was written by Harvey Schmidt and the book and lyrics by Tom Jones. Among the songs are "There Was You," "Don't Say No," and the most well-known song from the play "Try To Remember The Kind Of September." When the Fantasticks was on Broadway it broke all records for the longest running play in the history of Broadway. It was later passed up by "Cats" and "Phantom of the Opera." The play is entirely cast by Emery High School students. They include: Bethany Peacock as Luisa, Tyrell Jewkes as Matt, Kenny Larsen as El Gallo, Cadence Tuttle as Mrs. Huckleby, Meagan Rogers as Mrs. Bellomy, Seth Bott as the Mute, Brandt Peacock as Henry, and Jacob Bawden as Mortimer. Musical Direction is by Marilee Cox with the soloist coach Natalie Blackwell. Pianists are Merilee Cox and Gwen Peacock.
The set has been designed and built by students in the Emery High drama classes. This will be the second musical for the Emery High Drama Department this year, following only a month after "Dracula: The Musical?" This will also be the 93rd play directed by Neal Peacock in his 20 year career. The Emery High Drama Department plans on producing a total of six plays this season as well as participating in Region and State Speech and Drama. Tickets for the "Fantasticks" can be purchased at the door on the night of each performance. Peacock calls this a "sweet and romantic comedy that also has a nice message." It is entirely appropriate for the family. The play begins at 7 p.m. each night.

The Reebok 8.0.8 O-Stick replaces the popular Reebok 9K O-stick and delivers a completely new clean, crisp look and improved engineering.
Reebok has completely redesigned the O-tech Power Port Zone™. The Power Port Zone™ now actually features 8 arches recessed into the shaft. This design is even more aerodynamic and produces less drag when compared to the 9K stick. The O-tech™ design increases stick speed for quicker, harder shots, adds torsional stiffness for greater shot accuracy and added strength against slashes.
Reebok has also used what they are calling Pure Fiber Technology, which uses the same strands of carbon fiber running from the shaft into the blade. This results in having to use less materials decreasing the weight of the stick. It also maximizes energy transfer and improves the responsive feel. The Reebok 808 hockey stick is constructed out of high modulus graphite to reduce weight while not compromising any strength.
The Reebok 808 0-Stick also features a lightweight graphite blade to reduce the weight at the bottom of the stick. Giving the stick a more balanced feel.
The Reebok 8.0.8 hockey stick has a higher kick point compared to the Reebok 10K stick. This results in a slightly slower shot release, but allows the Reebok 808 to load up more energy on shots, packing a more powerful punch.
This particular version of the Reebok 8.0.8 stick comes with a traditional smooth finish, allowing for easier lower hand movement.
- Construction:
- Precision Bladder Molded - High modulus graphite reduces weight without sacrificing durability
- Pure Fiber Technology™ - Individual carbon fibers run through the shaft straight down to the blade for maximum energy transfer
- Shaft:
- 8 Power Ports™ - More aerodynamic arches provide less drag than ever before increasing stick speed and power
- Creates more torsional strength for deadly accurate shots and passes
- 8 Power Ports™ - More aerodynamic arches provide less drag than ever before increasing stick speed and power

"Ok I got this shoe in the tan color. Its a cute shoe, but POORLY made! I cant BELIEVE that its so chintzy. The strap is paper thin, and the holes where the hook goes in to buckle the shoe, looks like a 2 year old put them there. Uneven, and not even secure. I am not sending them back because it would cost me more in gas to take to fedex to return than it would to just keep them. I feel like I make one wrong move in them the strap is going to break. The shoe is that flimsy and poorly made. Sorry, DSW , you KNOW i love you, just by checking my buying history, but THIS shoe does not live up to the DSW quality i am used to."

Gambler Crawdaddy 4" 10pk
The unique shape of the Gambler Crawdaddy is perfect for fishing cover that would hang up other baits. It can be very frustrating fishing thick grass, pads, tules, and wood where many Texas-rigged baits tend to wrap and stick, not falling through to where the fish live. The Gambler Crawdaddy features a long, thick body, short legs, and thick, straight claws, which allow the bait to slip through the smallest holes in the cover. When you're fishing the thick stuff and you want a tough craw to flip and pitch, try the Gambler Crawdaddy.

Customer Reviews
Comments: A little bit of a plain jane but bass like it. Just a good old meat and potatoes craw for flipping. Shadow Blue Glitter has caught hundreds of bass for me and probably millions in Florida. Big time money maker over the last 20 years on Okeechobee and Everglades but has; as the case with many other classic baits; somewhat fallen out of favor. Don't let that dissuade you; these will catch fish very well.

Sexism and the All-Star Fantasy Draft
Danny Gray
January 27 2012 08:03AM
Dreams really do come true.
Last night the NHL held the All-Star Fantasy Draft for the second time. While it gives adult fans an opportunity to play Statler and Waldorf on Twitter after each pick, it is really meant for the children. As last year's Guardian Project demonstrated, the NHL sees the All-Star game as an opportunity to sell the game to its younger fans. The Fantasy Draft sent a very sexist message to those kids last night.
Young fans, boys and girls alike, tune into the draft to see their favourite players and which team they get drafted to. James Duthie specifically mentioned that the idea behind the draft is to evoke the memories of when the players were young, "tossing sticks into the middle, choosing Captains, and picking teams." Kids watching at home can imagine themselves up on stage being drafted and putting on an All-Star sweater. Well the boys can. If you're a young female hockey fan your options for daydreaming are slightly more limited. You can imagine yourself on-stage, dressed in tights and heels silently handing each player their sweater.
There were exactly three women visibly involved in the Fantasy Draft: the two aforementioned sweater shuttles, and Alyonka Larionov. Alyonka was relegated backstage to read off tweets that the Athletes were sending during the draft.
Being a man I'm obviously not the most qualified to speak on these things. And I don't presume to speak for an entire gender, but what I saw last night bothered me. Female hockey fans have it tough. Their opinions are often marginalized due to their gender and the assumption that they are "Puck Bunnies" who only follow the sport because they have a crush on every player.
Watching last night's coverage of the draft suggested that TSN feels the same way. While it may not have been TSN's intention to use Alyonka solely as "eye candy" a quick scan of her mentions on Twitter show that many male viewers did.
Fantastic stuff there.
This may not bother you; it may not even bother Alyonka Larionov. Adults can decide for themselves what they find offensive or objectionable. Children cannot. To the boys and girls watching at home last night the NHL sent a very strong message: female hockey fans and their opinions are not to be taken seriously. Female hockey analysts and reporters are under-represented in the MSM. There are many excellent female bloggers who are passionate about the game and offer insightful commentary. They have no representaton on nights like this. I don't think that's right.
What's worse is that girls watching at home dreaming of playing in the All-Star game one day were given two choices for when they grow up: handing out sweaters or reading tweets.

What's wrong with being sexy?
January 27 2012, 08:49AM
Thanks for writing this.
It's a sad reality that messages of discrimination and oppression will always be taken more seriously when delivered by a straight white male.
This is nothing new, although people (who aren't women) being bothered by it might be. It's the same thing in martial arts: in North America, UFC is king, and with no women's division, no female referees or commentators, only ringgirls in bikinis, their message is clear: women are not allowed *inside* the octagon, and their only value & worth lie in their youth, beauty and sexuality.
That seems to be the message in sports in general, though. From female reporters and journalists who actually get air time to the obligation to wear skirts in some sports (badminton, olympic boxing) to the abomination that is lingerie football... sports are clearly still marketed, owned and run according to a patriarchal system.
There isn't a whole lot we can do: none of us want to stop watching sports or going to games. We LOVE sports. I mean jeez, women still have a hard time finding jerseys and hats that aren't pink bedazzled and sparkly. That's not to say no one wants that; it's just that we're put inside a box by the NHL, without nuance or appreciation for women as humans. Women are seen as body props, accessories and eye candy.
So I guess what we can do is keep calling out this behavior when we see it, and I think the blogging community is pretty damn good at that, but also supporting women who are involved in sports, and just in general not describing women in gendered ways. It might not seem like much, but at least it's *something*.
Thanks again -- not for being bothered by sexism and the misrepresentation of women, but for speaking up about it. A lot of the good guys remain silent about this stuff. It's enough. So thanks.
@xkaren08 The problem is that there's no way that the NHL didn't consider that. They had kids riding in the sleds with the trophies during the parade on Rideau Canal, after all. I have to believe that they knew there were less... (I hate the word exploitative because it seems so harsh, but that's the one I'm coming up with, so I'll go with it) ...exploitative ways of handling it, and still chose to put some pretty young girls in tights and heels and have them walk back and forth across the stage all night.
January 27 2012, 10:52AM
Where the hell have I ever used sexy pictures to promote blog posts ON SEXUAL ASSAULT?
Or perhaps because I like sex LIKE EVERY OTHER HUMAN BEING and don't think I should be demonized for it, that is too much too soon too fast for everyone still stuck in the virgin/whore dichotomy.
And I don't see what's wrong with me personally liking the color pink and having the audacity to believe everyone - men, women, genderqueer - should be allowed to decide how they define themselves, and not be placed inside a box of stereotypes and oppression.
January 27 2012, 10:54AM
Remember Julie, if a man brags/talks about his sexual experiences it's cool and he should be branded a hero to all man. But if a woman brags/talks about her sexual experiences she's a slut and should be branded a whore with a big red letter A on her chest.
January 27 2012, 11:06AM
You are right that there are positive role models for young girls. You are also right that we are in no position to judge women who make a living off their looks.
It's also true that even in sports we are seeing a growing role for women as more than eye candy. TSN has lots of competent female reporters.
Finally, I don't think anyone is arguing that every televised sporting event must have a "substantive" female presence.
I think Danny's point is that in an event aimed specifically at children, it's a little disturbing that the only role for women is eye candy. Swapping kids for "sweater girls", as others have suggested, would have been a huge improvement.
The, so far, overwhelming response by females supporting your article and demanding equitable treatment must bring a tear to your eye. It appears that you certainly have your finger on the pulse of the hockey world and an insightful grasp on the issues that matter to the fans of hockey. Population of Gray World....one.
January 27 2012, 08:38AM
I "accidentally" read the first commenter's handle as "grope-adare". Nice work, Danny.
Way to go #1. Let Danny know he's a jerk for thinking half of the population can aspire to more than looking pretty.
January 27 2012, 08:56AM
Good for you for standing up for an issue witches reaches far beyond the NHL and stretches across the entire sporting world. Great article!
January 27 2012, 09:01AM
C'mon, Sarge. Agree or not, it was hardly 'feeble'
Excellent piece, Danny.
January 27 2012, 09:04AM
At least don't post your comment anonymously.
And tell me where exactly I 'walk blindly in the mainstream' and don't call out EVERYTHING that is disrespectful to me and to women in general.
Go ahead, I dare you.
More hot headed bloggers who can dish it but can't take it. Love the Alexa rating by the way.
I'd have to agree. If they'd had Alyonka Larionov doing something more productive, like interviewing fans, it wouldn't have been so bad. Reading tweets is *always* awkward.
The production decision to include Kane saying 'the blonde is unbelievable' (whether you buy his story he was referring to someone else or not) serves as an admission by TSN & NBCSN they had her there as eye-candy.
It's irksome, certainly, to be marginalized, but I'm not sure what the solution could have been last night. It's not like that's a venue for intelligent analysis from anyone, male or female. Did you hear anyone get the chance to make an intelligent, thoughtful, cogent analysis of the process? Add to that the fact that there are so few female hockey TV people, and what could have been different last night for the women?
Long-term, though, it needs to change. There is a huge pool of young girls getting ready to make their decisions about what sports to play and to spend money on. Showing women's hockey on NHLN or NBCSN, hiring some of the very smart young women out there--heck, even getting one or more of our incredibly knowledgeable female bloggers to write for NHL.com would go a long way towards "growing the game" among young women.
My daughter just turned 7. She's been playing soccer but she's starting to think about learning hockey (since we're a hockey household). I hope that she won't feel she shouldn't because she's a girl, but I'm fairly certain that that issue will come up. A role model would do wonders for her.
Some of the commenters too gutless to use even a pseudonym while attacking others must have missed the irony in the one line of rules before commenting:
Comments are moderated. Pretend your mom is reading over your shoulder.
Grasping at straws. It suppose it could have been Jennifer Hedger hosting, but Duthie is the host of TSN Hockey, and wins all the awards. The panel consisted of the Mckenzie (the top hockey insider), Crawford (NHL coach), and Ward (NHL player). This too is pretty much the same crew for all hockey games.
You are aware that Alyonka Larionov is the daughter of former NHLer and HHOFer Igor, right? She's a fairly accomplished media up-and-comer having worked for a number of hockey media outlets (HNIC, HBO's 24/7, now TSN). It doesn't hurt that she's pretty, but her family pedigree and her experience, accomplishments, and capabilities in the media are why TSN chose her. TSN wanted someone to cover the social media aspect of the event, which is why she was covering the players' tweets. You're right though, she was "relegated" backstage, along with, you know, the ALL-STAR HOCKEY PLAYERS!
To accuse TSN of sexism and under-representing women's talent is pretty bold, especially when they have great talent like Jennifer Hedger, Kate Beirness, Katherine Dolan, Sheri Forde, Holly Horton, Sara Orlesky, and Natasha Staniszewski at the forefront of their national Sports Centre and TSN Hockey broadcasts (okay, Staniszewki is not that great, but the rest are). TSN also covers more Candian women's hockey than any other television network in Canada.
What point exactly are you trying to make when you say, "There are many excellent female bloggers who are passionate about the game and offer insightful commentary. They have no representaton on nights like this." Umm, there are also lots of MALE bloggers who are passionate about the game and offer insightful commentary....they too have no representation on nights like this. The MSM doesn't really cover the blogosphere. Insightful bloggers and vloggers, despite their sex, will get the appreciation and representation they deserve from their readers and viewers on the net; it's not the MSM's job to give laurels to their competition.
No offense, because I'm sure you're a good blogger and writer, but this is a horrible post. Yes, they had some pretty girls to hand out sweaters, and yes, Patrick Kane said that "the blonde was unbelievable". What about the girls who hand out medals at the IIHF championships? Should we scrap them? Such a mountain out of a molehill. What is with the movement that says we have to pretend we live in a sexless world all the time? It's this attitude that would have cheerleaders removed from pro sports, citing sexism. May as well do away with the tradition of bridal gowns, it's sexist to make the woman wear something so visibly different and, *gasp*, pretty! Of course, all of this, including your post, never takes into account the CHOICE of the females who took part in last night's broadcast, whether it be covering tweets or handing out jerseys.
The focus of the broadcast last night was the All-Star players and the draft, not pretty girls. Had it been the latter, you would have had an argument. Please stop creating controversy where it doesn't exist.
January 27 2012, 09:18AM
It would have been so easy to have a woman who actually speaks French fluently read the player descriptions instead of hearing "une joueur" and "dernière but", or have a guy AND a girl handing out the jerseys, or not just have the "pretty girl" read out tweets, etc.
So many things could have been done differently instead of giving the "prop" roles to women, and anything else of value/substance only to men.
Those things appear small, but change has to start SOMEWHERE for a massive cultural shift to happen. Every little bit counts, including this blog post.
January 27 2012, 09:19AM
Thanks for writing this, Danny.
These days it seems like everything is an excuse to fly off the handle and get outraged, especially on the internet and in the blogosphere. Sometimes it's just about yelling the loudest, but quite often it is justified.
Yet when it comes to tweets like the ones you pointed out about Alyonka Larionov, nobody bats an eyelash. Nobody gets outraged. Nobody yells. And so people think there's nothing wrong with it. Which is why I'm glad you're pointing it out.
Love #9... "everybody's doing it, so it must be OK." You gotta troll harder than that, son.
"it may not even bother Alyonka Larionov.
I don't think "may" belongs in that sentence. It doesn't bother Alyonka. This is her job. If it bothered her, she wouldn't have done it.
Same with those two other women who handed out the jersey. If they had a problem with it, they wouldn't have done it. And we don't know their motivations behind doing it, so who are we to comment on whether the job is sexist? How do you know that claim wouldn't bother them? It might. It could.
My comment in no way means to take away from your other very important points: Female hockey fans have it tough. Their opinions are often marginalized due to their gender and the assumption that they are "Puck Bunnies" who only follow the sport because they have a crush on every player. ... Female hockey analysts and reporters are under-represented in the MSM. There are many excellent female bloggers who are passionate about the game and offer insightful commentary. They have no representaton on nights like this. I don't think that's right.
Valid points, for sure, but using the examples of the three women involved in the broadcast last night, who made the decision to be involved, it just doesn't fly, and that's just me, and my honest opinion, as a 29-year-old male with no children, no daughters. Until I know what Alyonka and the other two women have to say about their role last night, I haven't heard the full story. Know what I'm saying?
I don't often comment, but keep up the great work here, Danny.
January 27 2012, 09:21AM
The relegation of women in the hockey community to nothing more than scantily clad eye candy goes well beyond what we saw last night.
At TML games, the ice is cleaned by random dudes in track suits. No fuss. On Long Island, it's done by girls in short skirts and low cut tops. Same with arenas like Dallas, Chicago, and New Jersey; the latter of which also incorporates cheerleaders who dance around the stands to amp up the empty seats during stoppages in play.
As Julie pointed out with the UFC, the NHL is making it blatantly obvious that the only ways for women to get involved with the game are by wearing revealing outfits while dancing, carrying a shovel, or delivering trivia questions on the jumbotron during stoppages to other girls wearing pink hockey jerseys.
To answer Sarge's question or whatever: There are no easy solutions here, but also no assumptions made. This is about inducing culture change to the world of hockey and it can be started by simply respecting all hockey fans equally regardless of gender.
I don't believe that journalism is necessarily about finding a solution or offering advice. A male advising women in an article that there is an easy fix to hundreds of years of sexism wouldn't have been right or even plausible because there is none.
Great job on the article Mr. Gray.
January 27 2012, 09:24AM
"The focus of the broadcast last night was the All-Star players and the draft, not pretty girls. Had it been the latter, you would have had an argument. Please stop creating controversy where it doesn't exist."
That's the point Danny's making here; that women have been marginalized time and again when it comes to the NHL. They don't sell regular jersey's fitted to women. They have very few women commentators on the sports shows. And when they are used, it's as pretty looking hood ornaments.
January 27 2012, 09:25AM
Yes, you're right. They were not forced into taking on that job.
But the point is that those were THE ONLY jobs open for women to do last night.
And the only way for a woman to get any visibility is to be young, beautiful and sexualized. These issues are systemic.
Whether the women involved realize it or not, that's the truth.
January 27 2012, 09:26AM
No solution was offered. No advice. Just assumptions. How is that effective?
It's a pretty far cry from an assumption that the three women in question were eye candy exclusives.
January 27 2012, 09:27AM
Well written and informed piece. It's also gotten me thinking about whether we'll ever see female players in the NHL, and by proxy, all the other sports leagues.
January 27 2012, 09:32AM
You think it's okay for men to be allowed to talk about sex all they want without fear of being objectified or humiliated, but that women with healthy sex lives should have that used against them when trying to have their rights respected?
Because I have news for you: sex isn't shameful to you, nor to me, nor to anyone, male, female, transgendered, gay, bisexual, pansexual, etc.
No contribution.
Danny, they don't give background for ANY of the analysts. There was no mention of Duthie's or Dutch's Gemini awards for sports broadcasting, they didn't do backgrounds on Ward's playing career or Crawford's coaching career. At best, there are passing remarks during the Quiz, but nothing last night. Bob Mckenzie's name speaks for itself, as would anyone's with his experience and exposure.
Larionov is young, and people will know her soon enough. What would have made last night an appropriate time to do an expose on who she is or where she comes from? THAT'S MY POINT, it wasn't about her!
Most of the talent I listed above are field reporters. I suppose TSN could have had Beirness or Hedger in the place of Dutch, but they didn't. Who knows, maybe it was offered to them and they refused it? I don't know the reasons why, but I don't think it's a systematic silent oppression of the female voice at play.
I'm not saying there isn't more room for more female analysis at all, but I wholly disagree with your post that last night was a sexist broadcast leaving little girls with no aspirations but to become puck bunnies. Come on! I know the culture that exists in the hockey world, but it's not TSN that's perpetuating it.
Good thoughtful post. I first thought that your point was a little too obvious, but judging by some of the ignorant comments it's attracted, I was 180 degrees wrong. I guess it just goes to show the old truth that discrimination tends to be invisible to those it favors.
One of my first thoughts last night during the draft was, "Man, how great would it have been for some little kids in Ottawa/Gatineau minor hockey to have been carrying out those jerseys to the players?" Thrill of a lifetime for them, and honestly, it's not like these players can't find pretty girls to look at on the 364 days of the year. It's not that it offends me so much as it makes me roll my eyes because it's so predictable. And that's the worst part -- as female fans we don't expect any better (though I think it's fair to say we deserve it).
As for Alyonka... My main problem with her is that she's terrible. Truly, if she was excellent at her job -- knowledgeable and charismatic and funny -- then I wouldn't mind so much that she's also "a babe." It's the perpetuation of the stereotype that a woman's most important contribution to the world of professional sports is her looks that drives me crazy.

It's like I always say:
As a woman, either you like/have sex, or you respect yourself.
It can't be both.
@SarahM what a great idea about having local kids do it! Maybe next year...
January 27 2012, 09:42AM
Why not just shorten your 'argument' to "Well that's the way it's always been so why change it?" Further is very disingenuous to say that 'men are sexist'. Some men are sexist, and as Danny pointed out, some of those are the decision makers for the NHL and TSN.
@sarge- you're honestly suggesting we shouldn't complain about systemic discrimination and marginalization *because* it's systemic?
@SarahM I'd like to *think* they at least considered it... either way, the subconscious or deliberate exercise of male privilege like this flat out sucks.
January 27 2012, 10:03AM
Please enlighten us on things you are currently doing to curb sexism in sports. I wait with bated breath.
No contribution. Likely a misogynist that wears Axe and refers to sex as 'getting it in' or some other Jersey Shore-ism.

Ringtones won't go into iTunes
I recently updated to iTunes 11, nothing majorly new except for interface. Recently switched from Android back to iPhone (4S) and I have been making my own ringtones on Myxer and then just changing the file extension to m4r. The Text Tones all transferred over perfectly fine but the ringtones are not. They won't even go into my music file. All are 30 seconds long or shorter. Any ideas?

Re: Ringtones won't go into iTunes
Just changing the file extension doesn't guarantee you've changed anything except the file extension. It's like taking a Word document with a .docx extension and changing it to .ppt so that you'll have a Powerpoint file - it just doesn't work that way. Try reading some of the how to posts in this forum for ways to make ringtones.

text: URMC / Encyclopedia / Content Primer: A Parent's Guide to Inhalant Abuse Inhalants are chemical vapors that alter the mind when breathed in. These extremely poisonous chemicals can cause death by suffocation. They can also permanently damage the brain, liver, and kidneys. They can cause hearing loss, too. Knowing the following facts about inhalants can help you protect your children. Inhalant sources More than 1,000 household products can harm the body when inhaled. Most act on the central nervous system. The National Institute on Drug Abuse organizes inhalants in these general areas: Volatile solvents. These change to vapor at room temperature and include paint thinners and removers, dry-cleaning fluids, degreasers, gasoline, glues, correction fluids, and felt-tip marker fluids. Aerosols. These are sprays that contain propellants and solvents. They include spray paints, deodorant and hair sprays, vegetable oil sprays for cooking, and fabric protector sprays. Gases. These are gases used in household or commercial products, but also include medical anesthesia products like ether, chloroform, halothane, and nitrous oxide. Nitrous oxide can be found in whipped cream dispensers, and products that raise octane levels in racing cars. Household or commercial products that have gases include butane lighters, propane tanks, whipped cream dispensers, and refrigerants. Nitrites. These substances open the blood vessels and relax the muscles. Instead of changing a mood like the other categories of inhalants, nitrites enhance sex. Nitrites include cyclohexyl nitrite, isoamyl (amyl) nitrite, and isobutyl (butyl) nitrite, and are commonly known as "poppers" or "snappers." The Consumer Product Safety Commission has banned the sale of nitrites for human use. Even so, these products can still be found being sold as "video head cleaner," "room deodorizer," or "liquid aroma." Methods Inhalants can be breathed in through the nose or the mouth in different ways: Sniffing or snorting fumes from containers Spraying aerosols directly into the nose or mouth Bagging, which is sniffing or inhaling fumes from substances sprayed or placed inside a plastic or paper bag Huffing from a rag soaked with inhalant and held up to or stuffed in the mouth Inhaling from balloons filled with nitrous oxide Effects When enough is inhaled through the nose or mouth, inhalants can cause intoxicating effects. At first, users may feel slightly stimulated, then less inhibited and less in control following more inhalations. Sniffing highly concentrated amounts of the chemicals in solvents or aerosol sprays can cause heart failure and death. High concentrations of inhalants also can cause death from suffocation. This happens because oxygen gets moved out of the lungs and then out of the central nervous system. Fatal dose Death from inhalants can result from a very high concentration of fumes. Deliberately inhaling a substance from inside a paper or plastic bag or in an enclosed area greatly increases the chances of suffocation. A long session of inhalant abuse can cause irregular and rapid heartbeats. A healthy young person can die from one single sniffing session. This is particularly true for the inhalants butane, propane, and aerosol chemicals. Death also can be caused by: Convulsions or seizures Coma Choking, from inhaling vomit Deadly injury from accidents that happen while intoxicated Remain calm if you catch your child abusing inhalants. Immediately remove or push the can, bag, or rag away and then stay with a conscious child in an airy room. If the child is unconscious or not breathing, call for emergency medical assistance and start CPR if trained to do so. Seek professional help from a counselor or health care provider once your child has recovered. Signs of abuse These are signs of possible inhalant abuse: Red or runny eyes or nose Slurred speech Stains on the body or clothing Sores or spots around the mouth or nose Chemical odor or some other unusual odor on skin or clothes Drunk, dazed, or dizzy appearance Nausea and loss of appetite Anxiety, excitability, and/or grouchiness, depression Empty spray paint or solvent containers, especially if they have been hidden Preventing inhalant abuse begins with education and awareness. If you suspect your child uses inhalants, openly discuss the matter with him or her. Also stress that they're deadly, poisonous chemicals. Medical Reviewers: Holloway, Beth, RN, MEd

If Colorado wants a place in the growing global economy, then its education system must deliver the skills needed for students to succeed as 21st-century citizens.
The problem, according to a three-district panel of educators hosted by the South Metro Denver Chamber of Commerce on April 19, is that local schools are trying to ready kids for jobs that are yet to exist.
"The reality is, our students will compete with students from around the world for the most sought-after opportunities and that's something of a newer thing in education," explained Elizabeth Fagen, Douglas County School District superintendent. "It's definitely different than when we started back in the industrial revolution."
Along with the economy, Fagen said the kids, themselves, are different.
"These kids have never known anything that wasn't the 21st century, and they've also never known a world without technology," she said.
Along with Scott Murphy, Littleton superintendent of schools, and Eric Flor, assistant superintendent for Cherry Creek Schools, Fagen offered an overview of how schools hope to engage business and industry as future partners.
Strong partnerships between schools and business innovators may be the key to developing a winning curriculum — a curriculum that's rich in technology, collaboration, creativity and shared economic success.
"It's not about bricks and mortar," said Flor. "It's about what experiences are children getting — starting in kindergarten all the way through — that prepare them to be engineers, or whatever it is they want to be."
Panel moderator Lisa D'Ambrosia said education has long been one of the chamber's prime initiatives. She sees a strong connection between academia and the coming economy.
Schools are now looking to the business community and asking it to help define what the future workforce should look like.
So, what it is kids need to know to be successful in their lifetime?
"We can't even predict all the jobs that will exist when they graduate, but we can predict the kind of skills they'll need to be successful, no matter what those jobs are," said Fagen.
And the Douglas County School District has been reaching out to some of the biggest names on the planet.
"Nike, for example, wants people who 'obliterate' boundaries, are risk-takers, are smart, passionate curious people, rebels, original thinking," Fagen said. "So just as the industrial revolution paid attention to what it was the assembly-line mode needed, we want to pay attention to what our business partners want in our students."
"We have a vested interest in education with relationship to the business community," D'Ambrosia said. "It's one of the driving forces for bringing jobs here to the south metro Denver area."

Perfect Selection
"I bought this shoe for my husband and I choose this based on the other reviews that I saw. He was very impressed and he liked it. He liked it even more when other guys asked him where he got it, that's when he loved it because it was very stylish.It stood the test of the terrible weather that we had this year in Chicago, hence this is a double wammy for me getting this for him. In the review they said that it's bigger than the actual size, my Husband wear a size 13, so I was happy it had more room for a more comfortable fit. The only issue he had was that it was a little narrow but not that narrow for him not to wear. Overall it was a good buy and I got it on sale."

StarCraft Wiki Guide
EditWelcome to the StarCraft wiki guide.
StarCraft may not have spawned the RTS genre, but few can argue that, in its moment in time, it defined it. It's been more than a decade since Blizzard's venture that once began as Warcraft in space. Since then, it's barely faded from all, remaining a staple of RTS players even as countless newer, prettier games vie for the throne. Now, after so much time, a sequel is just around the corner. What better time to revisit the game that changed everything? Join IGN guides in a replay of StarCraft and get those juices flowing for the StarCraft II.
In this StarCraft strategy guide, you'll find:

Myth #1: Sole-Proprietorships, Small, or Medium-Sized Companies Don't Need Social Media
Sole-proprietorships, small companies, and medium-sized companies can benefit from using social media and social networking to create a buzz and branding, just like large corporations. Social media and social networking should be an integral part of any sole-proprietorship, small, or medium-sized business and marketing plan. With very little cost, and with a little patience, your company can use social media to boost its appearance online. In turn, creating more business opportunities.
Myth #2: Business to Business Marketing Doesn't Work with Social Media
Does your architecture, engineering, environmental non-profit, landscape architecture, or urban planning firm work directly with other businesses, in either the private or public sectors? Then, you may have heard that social media or social networking is not the ideal place for business-to-business marketing. This could not be further from the truth. Social networking sites such as Twitter, Facebook, and Linkedin are excellent resources for architects, engineers, environmental non-profits, landscape architects, and urban planners to sell and promote their services to other businesses.

I would not melt it. Could increase the dough temp quickly. Instead I would rip off pieces, like tearing a ball of fresh mozzarella. I have mixed roll dough with lard or as they say Strutto in Italian.
at La Reina Mexican market close to my house they cook Carnitas in big pots and save the rendered fat to sell to the public, when I make certain Mexican recipes I use this pork rendered fat. I wonder if this would be a suitable manteca for NY style dough being that when they make Pork Carnitas they usually add ingredients in order to get the flavor they want. I think they use oranges, but its not really noticeable, the Carnitas are really good and you cant really pinpoint any type of ingredients they use, it just taste like yummy pork goodness.
Manteca is Spanish for "lard". Since Hispanics have typically been big users of lard (and many still are), the producers make sure to put the word manteca on their packaging materials, usually in big letters. So, as best I can tell, the Armour product is the deodorized form that does not have a lot of flavor. The liquid manteca, which Norma used without incident, produces good crust flavor from what Norma and her taste testers reported.Peter
OK great, so all's we got to do now is figure out how to turn that light brown stuff solid. Norma....!!!???
Bob,I sure don't know how to make the manteca turn solid, but I will be watching this thread. I do have some Goya lard in my fridge, but I don't know what would happened if I tried that solid in a dough.Norma
Thanks guys, at La Reina Mexican market close to my house they cook Carnitas in big pots and save the rendered fat to sell to the public, when I make certain Mexican recipes I use this pork rendered fat. I wonder if this would be a suitable manteca for NY style dough being that when they make Pork Carnitas they usually add ingredients in order to get the flavor they want.
Well, you are quite the experimenter so I say what the heck; give it a go. Unless it is maybe Peter's "deodorized form"...that sure doesn't sound appetizing now does it; wonder how many folks have used that anyway?
Hi Norma,I didn't get the manteca that I usually get, but the market that I went to today is just as good if not better, so I bought there manteca. I'm trying NY style for the first time in my WFO, making dough tonight for Saturday pizza.Thanks,Vince
Norma,Here are the result of my first NY pie recipe in my WFO. I used the same one you did with your UBM recipe and I followed Peter Reinharts work flow. The manteca was in liquid form, so I just mixed it with a spoon to get everything looking consistant then mixed in with all the ingredients as Peters requires.My oven temp was anywhere from 550 to 590, it seems as though the bottoms did not get done as much as I would have liked, but it was my first time, so I will forgive myself. The dome was around 850, it just seems like the cheese was just bubbling too much and I had to remove the pizza or it would have burned, even though the bottoms weren't where I wanted them to be.OK, so the picture of the crumb shot did not come out that great, but the flavor was good, it had subtle rich flavor going for it with a very, very slight crunch. I was looking for something with more of a crunch to it, but no too much, just a little more than what it had.Everyone loved the pizza! they went on, and on about it, so I didn't want to tell them I have a long way to go to get it where I want cause they would have thought I'm crazy. but believe me I know I will get there.Vince.having problems loading pictures, doing it on tablet maybe that's why?

One Person Killed, Five Firefighters Injured in 4-Alarm Brighton Blaze
One person was killed and five firefighters were treated by Boston EMS for minor injuries in a 4-alarm fire that broke out in a home on Murdock Street in Brighton and jumped to a second home on Thursday morning.
The Boston Fire Department responded at 7:30 a.m. to the three-family, three-story home at 105 Murdock St. and found heavy smoke already flowing from the home. The fire reached the top floor and jumped to a building a 107 Murdock St.
The Boston Fire Department said that one adult male victim was found in the basement and pronounced dead at the scene. He may have escaped but then re-entered the building in order to help others escape. WBZ's Bree Sison reported a language barrier between residents and firefighters "hindered their notification that the victim was still unaccounted for."
According to the Boston Fire Department, five firefighters were treated by Boston EMS for various minor injuries. Four civilians were also treated and transported, including two from the fire and two from a car accident involving a fire truck near the scene.
The Boston Globe reported that the fire is being considered accidental at this time. By late afternoon, the BFD said investigators determined the cause of the fire was a short circuit in the first floor kitchen. Investigators from Housing and Inspectional Services are also looking into the fire after it was determined that a family of 14 was living in the top floor and attic apartment. The fire then rose to the roof, trapping some people on the third floor. The Boston Fire Department said that a neighbor saved two people trapped on the top floor before firefighters arrived by rushing to their aid with his personal ground ladder. The two people used the ladder to escape harm.
Damage estimates were put at $700,000 for 105 Murdock St. and $150,000 for 107 Murdock St. The Boston Fire Department Twitter account sent out several images of the damage to the exterior of the homes.
The fire appeared to be producing a lot of smoke that was then rising over the neighborhood and visible for some distance. Multiple people sent out images of the smoke on social media.

Lucky Craft "Skeet Reese" SKT Mini MR Crankbaits
The SKT Mini MR represents one of the most highly rated finesse crankbaits in Lucky Craft's repertoire. The design began in 2003, when Lucky Craft pro, Skeet Reese won his first Bassmaster Tournament. Lucky Craft created this crankbait to fit Reese's fishing style and ability. One of the biggest advantages of this bait is its ability to get into the strike zone quickly when casting near structure or heavy cover. This crankbait features a unique tight wobble that will be effective for fishing in highly pressured lakes.

Comments: Best spring crank bait! Especially slow rolling them threw pad stems. Ive won alot of tourneys with the flat mini sr models. Very underated baits!
From: Frank Fritz:Green bay 1/24/17
From: Hunter: NC
Comments: Excellent little bait. It is tiny, but surpirisingly cast as well as most 3/8 ounce cranks I own. This is a great crankbait for highly pressured water, and also when its slick calm. Very good action, and it will come through cover like a squarebill (which it basically is). Seems to dive pretty well for the bill size, bet I was getting 6 ft on 12 flouro on shorter casts. Worth the money, just bought another one just in case.
From: Brad: TX
Comments: nice tight wobble with slow or fast retrieve. caught many large mouth with this crank. nice bite size for that prespawn bss

Spro Dean Rojas Bronzeye King Daddy
The Spro Bronzeye King Daddy Frog provides a large profile ideal for targeting big bass. It still retains the same design and characteristics that made the original Bronzeye Frog so successful, but now its 30% bigger. Built around a specially designed 6/0 Gamakatsu Superline Double EWG Hook, the Bronzeye King Daddy Frog is up to the task of catching monster bass on braided lines. Using Spro's characteristic design, the razor sharp hooks are pointed away from the frog's body and the super soft plastic allows the frog to collapse down completely when bit - for maximum hook exposure. The larger size of the King Daddy also makes long casts routine and like the original it's perfectly balanced to always land on its belly. Available in a variety of effective colors, the Bronzeye King Daddy is easy to chug through the weeds or walk-the-dog through open water. Spro also made the living rubber legs extra long so you can trim them to your exact specifications and further manipulate the action. Bottom line is, the the Spro Bronzeye King Daddy will handle in the heaviest cover and attract attention from the biggest hawgs.

Comments: Best frog ever, casts further, catches bigger bass & walks much better than any frog out there, The black one been good to me but I wish they made it in the red ear color too.
From: H.B.: Opelousas, LA 12/24/15
Comments: Simply put, this is the best frog that I have ever bought. It just flat out catches fish, the proof is in the hooksets. I was throwing the leopard King daddy and my friend was throwing a leopard 65 bronzeye (exact same frog, just half the size of the King). I caught 6-7 solid fish (all over three lbs) with about 5 more blowups and he caught 1 (one lber) with maybe 2 more blowups. It may seem a bit pricey, but I'm telling you... This is the frog to buy.
From: BO: Austin, TX 5/28/15
Comments: Walks easily. Sprays water if you work it more aggressively. Very soft body with sticky hooks. I casted this down to my backing. Had a 2lber fly out of water to choke the king daddy as I dangled it over a branch and dipped it in and out of water. I was skeptical at first. now I can't wait to toss this on larger lakes.
From: Montanaro: Touchdown City, WV 9/21/14
Comments: The King of Hollow-body frogs! When nothing seems to do the trick -- bust out the King and you're sure to catch a monster mama (and the possibility of a monster pike). I've even had single-digit bass jump clear out of the water to try and get a piece of the King! Because of it's size and weight you can cast this royal frog to extreme distances! Walking is so easy! My wife got it down after a one cast!! I do have a small complaint -- a few of the Kings I've owned ended up deforming and I toss it. By deformed I mean out of shape -- it's like someone pinched it on one-side and it just stays pinched forever. Makes the frog swim irregular, still walks and floats fine, though!
From: Albert: Onalaska, WI 9/6/14
Comments: By far the best frog in my tackle box. Have fished it right next to the smaller Bronzeye and they will hit this when they won't hit the other one, also they float forever! Have had pike rip them apart but they still float, try getting that with any other frog!
From: Derek: La Crosse, WI
Comments: Im from Minnesota so I thought I messed up because I didn't realize how big the frog actually was but then as I used it, it coaught small to large fish like crazy and it casts and walks very easy, im impressed!
From: Matt: MN
Comments: I've got no use for a frog that doesn't walk, and this frog is very easy to walk. I like the bigger size, it fishes almost like a wake bait in open water.
From: Brian: Los Gatos, CA
Comments: I think I finally found a frog that is going to stop those overly aggressive bullfrogs that live in my local mudd hole from trying to eat all of my top water frogs! Koppers 65T, Phat Frog, Bronzeye 65, you name it, those freakin bullfrogs have attacked everything(even poppers!) But now the tables have turned... I have a bass catchin', frog repellin', top water bait that moves water like an aircraft carrier! Lots of action, walks great! I'll definitely report back if I land a 10 lbs bullfrog on it.
From: MRH: SB, CA
Comments: I TYPICALLY THROW BIGGER STUFF, THAN THE NEXT GUY.LOVE THROWING FROGS. THE COOL THING W/ THIS FROG, IS IT DOES EVERYTHING BETTER THAN THE "65" SERIES. DRAWS A BIGGER BITE, CASTS BETTER, WALKS BETTER, MOVES MORE GRASS, AND WATER, AND HOOK-UPS ARE BETTER, W/ HAVING A LARGER HOOK, AND PROFILE.TYPICALLY, MY 1ST CHOICE, UNTIL FORCED TO DOWN-SIZE.
From: Wheels: New Berlin, NY
Comments: Alec from IL, WRITE A REVIEW!!! Everyone stop writing comments about others, and use this section for what it's supposed to be for: PRODUCT REVIEWS! Spro makes the best frog on the market, awesomely durable, great hookup ratio, walks in open water no problem, and incredible cast length with ease. 'Nuff said.
Comments: Why dudes gotta hate on other dudes who make a good catch? So what if someone caught a 15+ on a frog in the slop or along a bank of reeds, that's alot of bass fishermen's dream, to drag in 25 lbs of weeds, and dig out a huge bass that busted a frog! Guess what, if any bait would get a bass like that, King Daddy would definately, awesome frog!!!
From: Guy: USA
Comments: 15.4 pound bass? was that 1 or a limit? Fishermans tale maybe? but this is definitaly a big fish bait
From: Alec: IL
Comments: OMG......I freakin love this frog I won the tournament with a 15.4 pound bass my biggest bass ever
The color was natural green
From: Patrick: USA
Comments: i have the lepord king daddy and have caught huge bass out of the clear water lakes in georgia. the action is great for the lure to be so big. i have personally caught a 13lb 2oz largemouth on the king daddy
From: Brandon: Milner, GA
Comments: if you enjoy catching bass on frogs,you've probably caught some good ones. but if you want to catch a true trophy,(10 pounds +), you need to get this frog. it is much bigger than described in the video. it's as big around as a toilet paper roll, and almost 7 inches long in total length!!! for this frog, use 60 or 80 lb sunline braid, a quantum 7.0:1 energy PT, kinetic PT, or a tour edition PT reel, and a quantum tour elite dean rojas 7' MH signature series frog rod, and you have the best frog outfit for lunkers.
From: Alex: Port Barre, LA
Comments: don't let the size scare you away. i have caught 1 and 2 pound bass off this thing, huge bowfin aren't afraid of it either, the size of this lure makes it very easy to walk the dog with, i have caught fish out in the open with this, walks the dog with ease and makes huge waves while doing it. i recommend the midnight walker color, i have the natural green and have never had a hit, only down is i had a 6 pound 7 ounce bowfin hit the midwalker walker and completely busted the plug out of the bottom, spro told me to buy a new one as a fix.
From: Colin: Moline, IL
Comments: This frog can walk the dog very aggressively and creates a lot of commotion. Very soft body and fish blow up on it. Caught my biggest bass on this frog and Spro has awesome customer service.
From: Jeff: Spokane, WA
Comments: this was a pretty good frog overall but not the best i would recomend getting a live target frog i had bad hookups with it and i recomond using braid so overall i give it a 4 and a half stars
From: Brayden: IN
Comments: I first bought this frog slightly for novelty of its sheer size, but man does it catch fish. In the hot summer I mainly fish at night, and this huge frog dominates. It walks effortlessly and pushes tons of water without being a popper. It is also great on really thick heavy mats, the profile is just way more visible to the fish. The hooks are just brutal and hookup great. It definately produces big fish, but I have even caught a few 12 inch dinks, that can barely fit it in their mouths.
From: Jake: Philadelphia, PA
Comments: Love this frog especially when matched up with quantum's signature series frog rod. Skips awesomely under trees, awesome hook up ratio, I caught my biggest frog fish off this frog, 5 plus
From: David: Spokane, WA
Comments: Love this thing. Has a great hookup ratio and floats like a balloon. I love how much vegetation this moves vs smaller frogs.
From: Matt: Amherst, MA
Comments: Best frog on the market! Caught a few nice 3 and 4 lb bass and a 10 lb 11 oz dog fish (bowfin) on the Mississippi.....
From: Cher: Wisonsin, USA
Comments:I tried this frog for the first time today and I couldn't be happier! Hooks ups were much better compared to the smaller frogs. The extra weight helps cast it a country mile. I was using a 7'9" G Loomis Frog rod paired with a Shimano Curado 201 E7.

Another reason I chose Isley, is because there are so few males in this series, and he is probably the coolest one.
Another reason I chose Isley, is because there are so few males in this series, and he is probably the coolest one.
I just wanted to point out that she abused of Teresa's emotions to be able to beat her because she wasn't powerful enough, thats it.
But i have to agree with you that no one currently alive will be able to beat her.
Plus Priscilla wasn't fully awakened when she killed Teresa. If Teresa was still alive I believe she wouldn't stand a chance against Priscilla.
Jink's Manga Picks
Shamo || Vinland Saga || Mirai Nikki || Dangu || Tokyo Red Hood
That part is true: Teresa admitted so herself, when she went against he the first time, she said something like"i we are to meet again in the future, i don't think i'll be able to beat her"
If Teresa had ended it right there, Priscilla would have been a goner.
but Teresa showed mercy and let her live, thats the single mistake she made that she had to pay with her life.
Jink, so what if Priscilla wasn't fully awakened? Teresa was only using enough power to turn her eyes to the color of Yoma. If she wanted to use more power, she could've killed Priscilla easy as pie.
As time goes on though, Priscilla would've won in the long run.
Yo Hotaru, wanna join the club?

President Obama is around for another four years, but some members of his team won't be.
Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton and, probably, Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner are expected to leave their posts soon.
The timing of a Geithner announcement is up for question, given negotiations over the "fiscal cliff" of tax hikes and budget cuts that would kick in next year without a debt-reduction agreement between the White House and Congress.
Other administration officials are also expected to leave, as is common for a second term.
From Bloomberg News:
"The Commerce Department is headed by an acting secretary, Rebecca Blank, and Defense Secretary Leon Panetta, the oldest Cabinet member at 74, hasn't indicated whether he will stay on. Many of the positions that will have to be filled are subject to Senate confirmation. ...
"The leading candidates to succeed Clinton may be Massachusetts Sen. John Kerry and U.N. Ambassador Susan Rice, officials said. Tom Donilon, Obama's national security adviser, is a long-shot choice, they said. Rice was a finalist for the World Bank presidency last spring. Obama picked then-Dartmouth College President Jim Yong Kim, keeping Rice available for other positions in his second term, officials said. ...
"One of the top potential candidates for the Treasury job is White House Chief of Staff Jack Lew, the officials said. A onetime aide to former Speaker Tip O'Neill who served as OMB director for Obama and former President Bill Clinton, Lew would bring a deep understanding of the tax and spending issues that could be at the center of the administration's negotiations with Congress in a second term."

Dividers & CompassesDividers
These objects include "plain" dividers, which consist of just the legs, and "wing" or "bow" dividers, which have a crosspiece that may be used to adjust the precision of the instrument and fix its width in place. Most of the oldest instruments in the overall group are dividers.
"Dividers & Compasses - Dividers" showing 1 items.
Japanese Proportional Dividers
- Description
- These brass dividers have metal points, short at one end and longer at the other. The legs are slotted to allow a brass set screw to be placed at one of several positions on two proportional scales that are engraved on one of the legs. The scales are labeled with Japanese characters, but they are presumably for drawing lines and circles at different ratios.
- The Japanese Empire Department of Education displayed this instrument at the 1876 World's Fair, the Centennial Exhibition in Philadelphia, in order to demonstrate its nation's modernity and progress. In fact, the Department of Education had just been established in 1870 to replace an Educational Board and assume a more active role in the management of primary, middle, and secondary schools. John Eaton, the U.S. Commissioner of Education, arranged for the transfer of the entire exhibit in which these dividers appeared to the Bureau of Education (then part of the Department of the Interior) for a planned museum. The museum closed in 1906 due to high maintenance costs, and much of the collection was transferred to the Smithsonian in 1910.
- Other educational mathematical objects exhibited by Japan in 1876 include MA*261301, MA*261305, and MA*261306.

Voucher Guarantee
Getting more bang for your buck
Good news:
GrabOne's Voucher Guarantee means missing out on claiming your deal in time no longer means losing out altogether!
How does it work?
- A voucher is valid up to and including the expiry date stated.
- If you don't use your voucher before that date for whatever reason, it can still be used towards that service with that business for an additional 30 days.
For example, if you buy a bungy jump deal but don't use it before the expiry date, you can still use the amount you paid for the voucher towards a bungy jump, for another 30 days.
A few things to note:
- The GrabOne Voucher Guarantee does not apply to product deals, travel and accommodation-related deals, or time-dependent event deals.
- It's always best to use your voucher before the expiry date, so you get the most value for your money. And if you're a bit forgetful, we now automatically remind you if your vouchers are about to expire.
- During the extended Voucher Guarantee period, your voucher can only be put towards the service stated on the voucher.
- If the offer is seasonal, like a seasonal menu or chimney sweep service, the Voucher Guarantee can be put towards a similar offer at the merchant's discretion.
- The conditions on your voucher still apply during the Voucher Guarantee period.

I really like Christmas but recently have been a little disheartened by it as over the last few years my family has not all been together and routine seems to be the only driving force behind the tradition. I suppose I may be seeing things a little more negatively than they actually are, but I don't know, anyway, this video is very honest and bittersweet and seems to portray that feeling pretty clearly.
Anyone else know what I mean?

The berries taste good, moderately sweet. But almost no flavor itself blueberries! And most importantly, they very generously greased (I think it was possible to add less.) I made conclusions for themselves, frozen blueberries fragrant and delicious!

These dried blueberries are so useful. When making ice-cream, I mixed them with milk and grind them in the blend. Tastes good! Second, I put them into the pancake dough to make blueberry pancakes. Third, it would also taste good if you put these blueberries into the plain yogurt.
it's very good

Join us this Saturday for the monthly Genealogy and Local History Orientation. This event is especially helpful for those new to genealogical research or new to research at the Newberry. After the orientation, stay and start your research in the General Reading Rooms where the reference staff will be available to assist you.
After the reading rooms close, join the Chicago Genealogical Society for their monthly meeting. This month's presentation is "Privacy and Our Ancestors" with speaker Thomas MacEntee. With all the news about privacy, identity theft and the role of access to vital records, have you ever considered that in 2012 most of us (at least here in the United States) have more privacy than our ancestors? As a result of living in the a digital age ruled by the Internet and social media, is there really less privacy than in prior years? In fact, the reverse is true. Learn what type of information about your ancestors was public and how to find it!
The meeting starts at 1:30 pm.
