To answer just a few of the questions raised by this new information:
No, the films will not be released individually at this time as originally believed. They will only be available as a complete set at this time.
Yes, according to information we've been given, Drew Struzan was brought on to make a modification to his original artwork by adding Doc Brown into the scene with Marty for the outside cover of the boxed set.
It's unclear if the offer for a DeLorean die-cast car is through Sunstar. I contacted our sales rep at the company yesterday, and while the company is doing a separate promotion of the car directly to video retailers & distributors, they were unaware of any offer included with the DVD set for individual sales of the car.
More details to come as soon as we know them...

Shares of solar energy technology provider First Solar (FSLR) are up 30 cents, or 0.6%, at $47.99, in late trading following a Q1 report this afternoon of revenue that beat expectations but profit that fell short, and a reiteration of the company's outlook for this year.
Shares of competitor SunPower (SPWR) are up 5 cents at $15.91 in late trading.
On a conference call following the report, CEO Jim Hughes started off by reviewing some of the data offered in a deck of slides recapping results and projecting the current state off affairs. Slide 4 in that collection shows that the company ended the prior quarter with 2.6 gigawatts of expected future shipments of solar panel modules, booked 0.3 gigawatts of orders, and shipped 0.4 gigawatts of modules, for an end-of-quarter shipment outlook for 2.5 gigawatts "of future demand."
While that produced a book-to-bill ratio of capacity of less than one, the actual revenue of shipments booked and billed was at one, Hughes pointed out, as shown on slide 5. That's because more revenue was booked for future system sales than recorded in last quarter's results.
Hughes said the company has 4 gigawatts of "potential bookings" this year alone, out of 5.5 gigawatts of what it refers to as "future opportunities," but that the vast majority was for solar projects at an early stage:
The largest portion, about 4.8 gigawatts, is early-stage, which means that the majority of these projects will have a development cycle of 12 to 24 months, and consists primarily of our own captive project assets, such as Solar Chile. This reflects the fact that we have lower demand requirements in the short-term and that we are focusing on replenishing our pipeline, primarily in 2014 and beyond. As a matter of fact, we are sold out until late Q3 of this year.
When pressed by an analyst on "what percentage of this pipeline you expect to convert into your bookings," Hughes replied that he couldn't offer any sense. "It's future opportunities, it's not really capable of that kind of analysis."
Hughes emphasized that the geographic market for demand has expanded, now including large pockets of demand in South America, the Middle East, and China and Asia-Pacific. Hughes noted that despite some diminution of large projects in North America, "there's still a fair number of large projects that are in that pipeline," not just in California but also "throughout the Southwestern region."
An analyst asked Hughes how much delays affected profit. Hughes noted that the "AV Solar Ranch" project in the U.S. ran into cost overruns that had to be recognized and that affected profit:
AVSR really impacted us starting earlier than continued through the quarter and I would say the impact was heavier as we exited the quarter than when we began the quarter so if entered throughout the quarter [...] Because of the accounting methodology that we use our percentage completion, any cost overrun essentially you have to recognize certain percentage of that relative to how much of the contract is complete at that point in time. So if you have to throw out a number, a $10 million cost overrun of the project is 80% complete you'll recognize that in the current quarter. So it did have an impact on earnings more so than revenue in the current quarter.
Delays such as the one at AV Solar Ranch also caused First Solar's gross margin of 22.4% to be below the company expectation. Lower utilization of its manufacturing facilities also brought down margin, the company said, as the company adjusts some production lines.
Chief financial officerMark Widmar said that higher revenue should help margin rise in the latter half of the year.

Jokes. Rule number one of being a legit celebrity: never even think about doing anything Heidi and Spencer would do. I haven't seen anyone roll a pair of shorts that many times since freshman year gym class.

Okay so this picture wasn't actually taken on the Fourth of July, but it may as well have been, as this is how he's walked around on the Fourth of July since he was an infant. Matthew McConaughey treats every day like it's the Fourth of July. So today, make like Matthew and bare all.

Celebs, especially low-level ones like Housewife Melissa Gorga and her protein power-filled hubby Joe Gorga, love to let us know how much they love each other. If you want to live like a celebrity, throw discretion out the window. Feigned discretion however, is a must. Post obnoxious makeout on the beach, definitely make a second scene about how you were so wrapped up in blissful spit-swapping that you didn't even realize anyone was watching.

As someone who has spent nearly all my Fourth of Julys at the Jersey Shore (the classy part, not Seaside), I must say there is nothing like spending the Fourth on a beach. Again, NOT Seaside. The last time I was there I walked behind a woman with a fairly graphic tattoo of a stripper on the back of each calf. If you're wondering what kind of people would actually have sex with the likes of these three...behold exhibit A.
But as a kid on Long Beach Island (my family's Jersey Shore spot of choice), sitting on a lounge chair on the roof and spotting the fireworks all around the island, I was pretty much living the life and I knew it. And of course, no beach side Fourth of July is complete without going down the beach to watch cops arrest people for shooting off fireworks. Sigh, the good old days. Anyway, if you're a celebrity, you obviously live on a coast, and Fourth of July = beach. There's just no way around it.

Even though I surprisingly do not know any celebrities personally, I can't imagine the number one celebrityish thing to do on Fourth of July would be anything but this. We know Miley's too young and innocent to know that Corona needs a lime, but you guys know better.

If Holly Madison isn't the picture of the American dream I don' t know who is. Boobs as hard as rocks and sex with a man who needs extra-strength Viagra (do they make that?) to become so. I think Betsy Ross would be proud.

The Fourth of July is like any other day for a celebrity: tweeting is a must. Not only a cheerful "Happy Fourth of July everyone! Hugs and kisses for a most wonderful day of celebration for this amazing country I am blessed by God to live in. God bless America and all my tweeps!" but also pictures throughout the day, of your various barbeques and America-themed paraphernalia.
(Photo: @katyperry)
When it comes down to it, celebrity or not, Fourth of July is about 'Murca. And being with family and friends in celebration of the greatest country in the world (even if it is home to people like Holly Madison). The celebrities we actually want to be like, the Jennifer Garners and Ben Afflecks of the world? Those guys will be spending the holiday fighting off photogs and wishing their lives were a little bit more like ours.
The best way to pay homage to the celebrity way of celebration? Be with family and friends in paparazzi-less peace, and appreciate the fact that you aren't a celebrity.

Hugh Freeze is $100,000 richer today, and that sounds like a lot. The value gained by the football program with a 41-20 win over Auburn makes it seem like a bargain.
It had been more than two calendar years and two complete SEC regular seasons – 16 games – since Ole Miss had won against a conference opponent.
But wait, there's more.
That opponent was Kentucky, and for a meaningful conference win you have to dig deeper, back to when the Rebels defeated No. 8 LSU 27-25 on Nov. 21, 2009. There aren't a lot of similarities between the Auburn team the Rebels defeated and the LSU team from three years back.
The state of the Ole Miss program is vastly different, however, which makes Saturday's win just as important.
The Rebels had to beat somebody – anybody – and Auburn was the next chance. It was also the last chance at home for the next month. The Rebels won't be back at Vaught-Hemingway Stadium until Nov. 10 against Vanderbilt.
If they had reached that game 0-5 in the league – trips to Arkansas and Georgia follow this week's open date – another possible 0-8 league season would be coming into view.
So hungry was the Ole Miss administration for SEC success that Freeze's contract calls for a $100,000 bonus for every league victory.
His fingerprints were on the SEC losing streak for only two games, but …
"When you would hear about it you couldn't help but feel like you were part of it. Then we didn't finish the job last Saturday, and that kind of built some pressure for this week," Freeze said.
Not distracted
The Rebels were painfully close last week only to blow a 10-point lead late in the kind of loss that has the potential to linger and distract.
Then came Monday's news that Baylee Wallace, the sister of quarterback Bo Wallace, had suffered a spinal injury in a car wreck. News is good for her recovery, but there were tense moments.
Then came Friday's news that defensive backs coach Wesley McGriff would have heart surgery to have stints inserted. He was released from the hospital and coached in the game.
There were plenty of chances for the old Rebels to reappear, especially when Auburn's previously dormant offense responded with 17 unanswered points after a 14-0 deficit.
But the Rebels' defense allowed just 60 yards and a field goal after halftime.
Ole Miss, led by the sterling play of Wallace and running back Jeff Scott, played its first turnover-free game and got the SEC win it had to have at the time it had to have it.
The monkey has left the building.
Now the Rebels can go about the business of working toward bowl eligibility and further exceeding the summer's meager expectations.

|Slouching doesn't only look bad but it's also bad for your health . Surprising research at Britain's University of Leeds proves that slouching when you sit can raise your blood pressure as much as 16 percent. The connection? Turns out there are nerves in your neck that send calming messages to your brain -- slouching squishes the vertebrae and discs in your neck, pinching those delicate nerves and hindering their function, study authors say.
Rx: Whenever possible, opt for seats with firm backs, keep your desk chair low so your feet rest on the floor, and place a rolled-up towel between the small of your back and the chair if you catch yourself slouched forward a lot.

|When folks with hypertension add 1/2 teaspoon of cardamom to their daily diets, it helps normalize their blood pressure in as little as 12 weeks, according to a study published in the Indian Journal of Biochemistry and Biophysics. This exotic spice is packed with plant compounds that keep the muscles of your heart and arteries relaxed, so pressure surges are less likely to occur, study authors say. Cardamom has a spicy, slightly citrusy flavor, and it's a popular addition to meat, fish, rice, bread and even coffee in Swedish, Indian and Ethiopian cuisines.

|Sip 36 ounces of tea daily (that's just three generous mugs), and you'll cut your risk of hypertension by 65 percent, according to Tufts University researchers. Don't know if you can stomach that much green tea? Switch it up! Despite all the hoopla surrounding green tea, black tea is made from the leaves of the same plant -- and Tufts researchers say it contains the same artery-relaxing antioxidants and is just as potent.
Tip: For best results, dunk the tea bag. University of Iowa research suggests you can double the concentration of pressure-lowering antioxidants in your cup if you dunk the tea bag up and down a few times instead of just letting it quietly steep.

|The problem with processed foods that are low-fat -- or fat-free? In order to give them a decent texture and taste, manufacturers pack them with sugar -- a potent high blood pressure trigger, say researchers at Baltimore's Johns Hopkins Hospital. "When your blood sugar surges, it causes damaging inflammation inside your blood vessels, and that speeds the buildup of artery-stiffening plaque, explains Jacob Teitelbaum, M.D., author of "Beat Sugar Addiction Now."
Forget about fat grams and simply weed out as much sugar as you comfortably can. Avoiding sugar-laden drinks, cutting back on desserts and switching to whole grain carbs can erase blood pressure problems for up to 77 percent of people in three months, say Johns Hopkins researchers.

|When people with moderate to severe high blood pressure were given one ounce of sesame oil daily, their blood pressure plunged as much as 32 points in two months, and their need for pressure-controlling meds dropped 67 percent, according to recent study. Researchers' best guess: The oil's healthy polyunsaturated fatty acids and unique sesamin compound work together to relax blood vessel walls, preventing pressure spikes. You'll find sesame oil in most supermarkets and can add it to stir fries, rice dishes, pasta dishes and more.

|New research at the University of Sheffield, England, suggests switching your computer background so you're regularly gazing at a photo of a beautiful beach, forest, field or other tranquil scene can lower your blood pressure as much as nine percent. Glimpsing nature increases your brain's production of soothing alpha-waves, which calm your central nervous system and tamp down your production of the pressure-raising stress hormone cortisol, explains Jay Winner, M.D., medical director of the Stress Management Program at California's Sansum Clinic.
Hanging a beautiful nature photo in a room you use regularly -- or opening the blinds if you're lucky enough to have a soothing view -- also work.

|This mild tropical drink can lower blood pressure as much as 12 points for 71 percent of people, according to research published in the West Indian Medical Journal. Coconut water is packed with 1,500 milligrams of potassium per 20-ounce serving -- and this mineral helps calm the entire central nervous system, preventing artery-damaging blood pressure surges when life gets hectic, UCLA researchers say. Look for coconut water in grocery stores and whole foods stores.
Tip: Check the ingredients to make sure you're getting pure coconut water -- some low-quality brands are loaded with sugar and are no healthier than soda. Smart picks include Zico, Blue Monkey, Vita Coco and Taste Nervana.

|A Florida State University study suggests enjoying as little as three slices daily can stop prehypertension from ever turning into full-blown high blood pressure. The reason: Watermelon is the richest natural source of L-citrulline -- an amino acid that kick-starts your body's production of a powerful artery-relaxing nitric oxide.

|Breathing slowly and deeply -- taking 10 relaxed breaths per minute, instead of the more common 16 -- helps women trim 14 points off their blood pressure in one month. "Calm breathing reduces production of stress hormones -- and that's essential for keeping arteries relaxed and blood pressure in check," explains cardiologist Nieca Goldberg, M.D., author of The Women's Healthy Heart Program.

|According to researchers at Los Angeles' Pacific Western University, savoring a tasty, filling potato every day (as long as you eat it mashed, boiled or baked -- not fried) helps 81 percent of people get their blood pressure under control (and with just half their usual prescription meds).
Tubers are packed with potassium, chlorogenic acid and tryptophan -- and these compounds work hand-in-hand to relax and open the blood vessels that nourish your heart. For top-notch blood pressure control, eat the skin, suggest Pacific Western researchers -- that's where most of the potato's nutrients are stored. Despite their reputation as fattening fare, a surprising study at Pennsylvania's University of Scranton shows that even when people eat 14 golf ball-sized potatoes daily, they don't gain a pound. Sorry, carb-haters.

Talk planned on dinosaur research, March 24
Posted March 20, 2003; 07:16 p.m.
A lecture on "Dinosaur Research in the 21st Century" is set for 8 p.m. Monday, March 24, in McCosh 50. Jack Horner, curator of paleontology at Montana State University's Museum of the Rockies, will discuss progress in dinosaur paleontology over the past two centuries, illustrating how ideas have changed with new discoveries and where research is heading.
Horner worked as a research assistant in the Department of Geosciences at Princeton from 1975 until 1982, when he joined the staff at Museum of the Rockies in Bozeman. He discovered the first dinosaur eggs in the Western Hemisphere, the first evidence of dinosaur colonial nesting, the first evidence of parental care among dinosaurs and the first dinosaur embryos.
Horner's talk is designated as the Louis Clark Vanuxem Lecture and is part of the University's Public Lectures Series . It will be Webcast live.

Shares of Maxim Integrated Products (MXIM) are down $3.68, or 11.2%, at $29.25, after the company yesterday afternoon missed analysts' fiscal Q4 expectations and forecast results this quarter well below consensus, but also raised its dividend payout.
Revenue in the three months ended in June rose 6%, year over year, to $642.47 million, yielding EPS of 43 cents, excluding some costs.
Analysts had been modeling $651 million and 48 cents.
CEO Tunc Doluca spoke of "softness" in the company's chips sales into mobile devices, and a "cautious" view of mobility in the "near-term," but also said the company is carrying out its strategy to bring new designs to automotive, industrial, communications, and data center markets.
The company raised its quarterly dividend per share from 26 cents in the prior quarter to 28 cents now.
For the current quarter, the company forecast revenue in a range of $580 million to $620 million, and EPS of 34 cents to 40 cents.
That is below the consensus for $676 million and 51 cents at the time the report came out.
The stock got at least one downgrade today, from MKM Partners's Ian Ing, who cut his rating on the stock to Neutral from Buy, with a $30 fair value estimate, writing that repairing mobile will take time, and another Samsung Electronics (005930KS) hit phone:
Diversification of Mobility's largely flagship Samsung smartphone products will take time (20% of sales in FY14 expected to decline to mid teens in SeptQ). We also believe that flagship smartphones and tablets are largely saturated in developed markets, and that sharper mobility growth will occur in low- and mid-tier smartphones by China OEMs serving domestic and emerging markets (such OEMs comprising only 2-3% of MXIM sales). As a result, Mobility has limited demand catalysts until Samsung's next flagship and another shot at AAPL smartphones in 2015.
However, analyst Craig Berger of independent research firm Hedgeye, comes to the shares' defense, writing today that fair value on the shares is $34, down from his prior estimate of $39, but that there are things on the positive side:
Good news is the stock pays you 3.8% per year to wait. If the market heats up further, shares could rally back towards $32-$34 at the high-end. If the market sells-off, or Semiconductor stocks correct (#GrowingDowncycleRisks), then shares could see further pressure towards $25-$26 (at which point yield looks even better). With MXIM's dividend rock solid, we do not see more downside risk than this in 2014.
Berger thinks that Maxim probably did not get its chips into Apple's (AAPL) forthcoming next-gen iPhone, but that it could be in Apple's wearable product, the supposed "iWatch."
"Maxim has tremendous sensor/MEMS and power management technology, and we view Apple as a long-term opportunity [...] We think Maxim will be found with some content in the iWatch."

Discussion on Kalona's Burning Ordinance to Continue
Posted By News On @ 6:25 am In Today's Local News | Comments Disabled
The City of Kalona will attempt to please both sides of an argument involving yard waste. Concerns were raised by residents at a City Council meeting earlier this month regarding the city's burning ordinance.
City Administrator Ryan Schlabaugh says he thinks there's merit to limiting burning to once or twice a week, but says they're not considering a complete ban. He adds one idea is to set parameters for when burning can happen on certain days, so residents living near people burning yard waste will know when to have their windows closed.
The discussion will continue at Tuesday's council meeting. He says that since there aren't any time constraints, and they're still awaiting a recommendation from the DNR, they'll continue to discuss it with residents before they come to a final decision.

By Emily Wagster Pettus/The Associated Press
JACKSON,— Mississippi senators on Thursday passed two bills aimed at improving students' academic performance. They also passed one bill designed to let children pray or show other religious expressions at school.
Senate Bill 2395 would, for the first time, put some state money into a limited and voluntary program for pre-kindergarten.
Another measure, Senate Bill 2347, would put more emphasis on teaching reading in the early grades. Children who aren't proficient at reading by third grade would receive intensive instruction to try to boost their skills.
Meanwhile, Senate Bill 2633 says schools couldn't punish students who express religious views in their assignments or by the clothing or jewelry they wear.
The bills move to the House for more debate.
The National Institute for Early Education Research says Mississippi is one of 11 states in the nation, and the only one in the South, with no state-funded pre-K programs. Some Mississippi school districts use federal money to provide classes for 4-year-olds.
The bill that passed Thursday would allow local groups to set up cooperative efforts involving public schools, Head Start programs, private child care centers or nonprofit groups. The groups would apply for state grants, putting in an equal amount of local money.
Sen. Brice Wiggins, R-Pascagoula, said children's brains develop rapidly before age 5.
"This is an investment for our future," Wiggins said.
Sen. David Jordan, D-Greenwood, agreed: "I've seen pre-K work."
The reading bill is designed to ensure students won't be promoted to fourth grade if they can't read proficiently at the end of third grade. Gov. Phil Bryant has said nearly half of Mississippi's third graders fall short by this standard. The bill says students could not be promoted to the next grade solely because of their age, but there would be "good cause exemptions" for those who can't learn to read at grade level.
"Hopefully we're going to catch these students before they reach middle school and their school career is ruined if they reach middle school and they can't read," said Sen. Angela Burks Hill, R-Picayune.

Sony Announces PS4, Loves on Developers, Unveils Mobile Vita PS4 Gaming
Jason Mick
February 20, 2013 7:01 PM
Recipient E-mail
Sender E-mail
Console packs an x86 GPU, 8 GB of DDR3, a powerful GPU, and a custom processor for background processing
Sony Group President Andrew House kicked off Sony Corp.'s (
) 6 p.m. press conference with the expected news, commenting, "The demand for a new console were clear....Today we will give you a glimpse into the future of play. The most personalized gaming experience available today... the most powerful platform ever.We believe that PlayStation 4 represents a shift from thinking of a box or console... PlayStation is the best place to play."
Sony's fourth generation console
, which will enter the eigth generation of console wars has been in the works since at least 2007. The console packs a new x86 processor replacing the International Business Machines, Inc. (
) derived CELL processor from the PS3. The system has 8 GB of DDR3 RAM (unified) shared by the GPU and CPU. Sony did not specify the hard drive size, but it promises it is "huge".
The new controller has a light bar, which is recognized by a 3D camera on the console, allowing motion control (similar to the Wii, Kinnect, etc.). The new controller also features a headphone jack and share button, as rumored. The controller also features a power button that can pause games; all games will be equipped with power save features.
Sony DualShock 4 Controller
Games can be downloaded while the console is in the low power/background mode. The background processing is handled by a secondary "custom" chip. Lead architect Mark Cerny explains, "[Our] long-term vision is to reduce download times to zero... if we know enough about you we know what game you'll purchase next and download it in the background."
There's also continual support for hardware video compression when the console is on.
The console also supports using smartphones, tablets, and the PlayStation Vita as controllers via custom apps on the latter two (specific platforms were not announced). Most PS4 titles will be playable on the PlayStation Vita as a secondary screen.
For sharing Sony is pairing up with Facebook, Inc.'s (FB) ubiquitous social network and Ustream. Describes Mr. Cerny, "By combining the PS4, the PlayStation Network, and these social platforms, our goal is to become the social platform for gaming."
One thing Sony views as key to the upcoming console's success is to woo developers big and small. Much like Apple, Inc. (
) Sony made it clear that it's all about the developers and will promote small third party studios and big studios alike via abundant resources and a set of accessible APIs.
For big end studios, there's plenty of room for creativity; high end game titles are expected to feature characters with up to 30,000 polygons. Some of the high end games shown off included Killzone: Shadowfall, inFAMOUS: Second Son, Driveclub, Deep (Capcom Comp., Ltd. (
)), Final Fantasy (unnamed) (Square Enix Holdings Comp., Ltd. (
)), Watch Dogs (Ubisoft Entertainment SA (
)), a Diablo III port (Activision Blizzard, Inc. (
)), and (now-independent) Bungie's new title "Destiny".
"Spreading the rumors, it's very easy because the people who write about Apple want that story, and you can claim its credible because you spoke to someone at Apple." -- Investment guru Jim Cramer

I was telling my husband the other night I wish I had a light on the paper so I could see where the last cut was - esp. after unloading and reloading mat - Yea!!

You are so lucky Robyn. I just love it. I would love to have one too.I just can't keep up. I so hope my regular expression never becomes obsolete because I may not be able to change. It is so awesome. You are such an awesome young woman and I just love watching you as the first day I started over two years ago. Keep up the good work.ReplyDelete
well, that is just totally stinking amazingly awesome...wonder if hubs will let me get one?? I feel like I'm just getting used out of my cricut...but that looks AWESOME!!ReplyDelete
Okay you totally sealed the deal for me...i will be up and buying it on the 26th!!!ReplyDelete
Does this machine have the Centerpoint feature (like the regular E has that is missing on the Imagine)?ReplyDelete
Also, can you try Fit-to-Page for use and see if it gives you the message to know the size that is being cut. The E does this but the Imagine does not. Just wanting to know so I can decide if I want this machine too!
Thanks for sharing! It looks fun and Im sure I will buy it some day but I am happy with my Pink Expression! :)ReplyDelete
OMGoodness!! I am so excited for you! One question, I remember Jinger saying you could customize this cricut, do you plan on changing out your green for pink, I am wondering if you can just order the different color pieces?! humm... I guess we will see... I just got my expression so I wont be getting th C2 any time soon (I can live vicariously threw you though) hehe.. Also are the pre-loaded cartridges NEW original only to the C2? Thank you so much for sharing your new toy with us!ReplyDelete
I love how their anniversary model is being launched on my anniversary April 26th.I really want one of these too, cant wait Im just curious on what the price will be.ReplyDelete

OMG Luv your video. I so MUST HAVE a Cricut Expression 2. COD - Cricut Obession Disorder. LOL! :) U ROCK, Robyn.ReplyDelete
I love this!! But I haven't even had my Expression for a year yet, so I can't imagine my husband going for this one :( I want those cartridges!!ReplyDelete
Oh my, I think I'm in love!!!! I absolutely can't wait to see more. Thank you so much for sharing all you do. You have been an inspiration to me & I am very grateful for finding your videos.ReplyDelete
Thank you
This might be a must have because I really like some of the imagine carts but I don't have the imagine.ReplyDelete
O my goodness I'm so excited and I can't wait until it's available for the rest of us!ReplyDelete
Congratulations you look like you had so much fun!
Oh wow how awsome.... I have the cricut expression.... I so hope to get one of these in the future. I work at Jo-anns and I am now known as the Cricut Lady LOL Everyone that comes in with questions about scrapbooking or cricut gets directed to me. I would love to get one of these so I can help them with this one too.ReplyDelete
tina j 509 at yahoo . com
ok i love it. didnt think i would but i like what u have shown! now too bad i dont think it will be available in Canada...lol. Saves my wallet and guilty conscience... can't wait to see everyone posting things they have made with it in the future!ReplyDelete
I can't wait to see your video!! I have been wanting to see this machine so bad! XOXO, Julie. :0)ReplyDelete
I just watched the video. The E2 looks so awesome!! Do you know if we can use it with our gypsy? Thanks for the video- of course, I want one now!
- Anonymous3/30/2011 8:43 AM
I love it! My dad is planning on getting one for my mom when it comes out. So that way I can use it too.ReplyDelete
LOL an of course i just bought a circuit expression lol. Oh well maybe for xmas lolReplyDelete
gosh i love the new expression.....Cant wait to buy it ......question, is it as loud as the the old one? My BF was complaining about it^^ReplyDelete
Thanks for the first hand look.....it's a sweet machine. :)ReplyDelete
Thanks for posting this video. I am happy to know what it comes with and how its working. I see that it is set to cut in PORTRAIT. As the Expression cut from the side, this is cutting like the Imagine. (for those who do not know) It will take a little getting use to putting the paper on that way. Thanks again!ReplyDelete
Just wondering if you could answer a couple questions...ReplyDelete
1. How does the Gypsy work in conjunction with the carts that are pre-loaded? Will there just be an update?
2. You keep saying to look on HSN...they have nothing about this product that I have found. Can you tell us where you saw it on HSN?
- Selena3/30/2011 9:12 AM
WOW, I love the interface on this machine--almost more than on my Imagine. I think I especially like the 'Space bar/button' feature. Do you know how we could get that on the Imagine through an update--like who we would have to contact to suggest such a thing?ReplyDelete
Soooooo, awesome. I have to have one!ReplyDelete
I've been saving up for this machine! Ever since I seen the video from CHA! I am soooo ready to get it and can't wait! Thanks for showing some things that I didn't know this AWESOME machine has! Now I'm even more excited! Thanks Robyn! :o)ReplyDelete
Thanks for sharing! Not sure I am ready to update from my trusted expression yet but someday I am sure!ReplyDelete
Looks so awesome! Thanks for sharing this with usReplyDelete
I really enjoyed watching the videa. It'll be awhile until I can get the CE2 but it's nice to see all the wonderful features it has!ReplyDelete
Uh-oh...that is amazingly awesome! It really looks so cool. Thanks for showing us!ReplyDelete
looks awesome i'm really wanting one. any idea what prices are?ReplyDelete
Robyn, thanks so much for the video. The E2 has officially gone on my wish list. Will start saving my pennies today!ReplyDelete
Hi Robyn!!ReplyDelete
W O W ! ! ! Would LOVE to have the new "E2", but I already have 2 "E"'s & the Imagine! I probably could have bought a small house w/all the $$ I've already spent on PC products! LOVE the carts that come already down loaded on this one. ALSO, the LIGHT!!! AND the MAT GUIDES!!! I have been trying to figure out a way to do that on my "E". Thanks soooo much for showing this to us! Will definitely be watching HSN on 04.26. Can't wait!
Hugs from R.I.,
Can't wait Robyn!!! Got the Imagine for Christmas and my E is starting to wear out from so much use!! Can't wait till the 26th to order my E2. So super excited! Thanks for the great video. Keep em coming.ReplyDelete
Wow, looks like fun!ReplyDelete
OMG! I am so excited for April 26th! I almost bought an Imagine a couple of weeks ago, I'm glad I didn't. I think it's great that PC sent you one to preview for us! I'm looking forward to more videos! Thanks!ReplyDelete
Oh, golly, I have the CE and have not been interested in the cricut cake or imagine. But this new CE2 inspires me. Looking forward to the 26th. Thanks for the first view.ReplyDelete
The CE2 looks awesome. I think there must be a stylus somewhere to use. Not everyone have nice nails like yours. It looks like a touch screen but sometimes the items are so close. Thanks for the video. I look forward to see a video on the everyday pop up cards.ReplyDelete
You are so lucky!!!! I want one of those so badly. Can't hardly wait. Thanks for sharing. Stacy H-WReplyDelete
Ahhhhh!! I MUST get one! I totally JUST got my Imagine and was debating actually getting an E2 but after seeing it has FOUR cartridges pre-loaded...I HAVE to get one!ReplyDelete
Thanks for sharing, Robyn!
whew... i have up/down on thoughts.. imagine or e2... BUT I do have a question.... you said it cuts but not prints.. does this mean the paper that is on the imagine 2 cartridges doesn't print to the other cartridges or ?????? what am i missing?? EXCITED!!! Thanks... oh.... can you do a video using the imagine cartridge paper?? DorisReplyDelete
SQUEAL! LOVE it!!! :) SUCH a fabulous video, Robyn! Thank you so much for sharing that experience with us!ReplyDelete
You know Robyn...I was determined NOT to get this machine. I have the original bug, the White E, a Gold E, Pink E and the Green E and the Imagine...well...you sold me on the E2...so I will probably be first in line to get the E2...might have to cut down on buying carts tho [have way over 200+]and now that I am retired, more time to play, less money to buy, lol..ReplyDelete
Glad I waited on buying the Imagine because I want this one even more!!! One question do we know what the price will be?ReplyDelete
Karen firstname.lastname@example.com
OMG! How cool is this?! Can't afford to buy it now. Maybe when I pass down my CE to my daughter or son:-)ReplyDelete
Cricut had me at WIFI....lol I am loving that. I have a queston does the imagaine do the same thing where you have the drop down box to select paper type? Will have to check out the imagaine to see if its wifi as well. Wondering what the price point will be on the CE2.ReplyDelete
OMG am in love with this one.......don't know where I can put it but will find a spot. LOL Could really feel your excitement Have some questions but am sure they will be answered with future videos. YOU ROCK.....ReplyDelete
It was like Christmas watching you open the E2. I think I am going to have to save for this one. Thanks for the video and looking forward to seeing more.ReplyDelete
Why do I even watch, this looks so easy to use and amazing! Thanks for giving us a peek. I think I might want this one. :( Hopefully they will incorporate the space into the I too!ReplyDelete
OMG, wish I had the new cricut!ReplyDelete
Just watched you play and it is
awesome! Thanks for video.
It's so cool, Robyn! Thanks for showing us.ReplyDelete
- martysbarn@yahoo,.com3/30/2011 11:28 AM
I'd be over the top excited with Cricut Expression 1 OR 2 ! I'd take the original in a heartbeat and be happy with it.ReplyDelete
- Anonymous3/30/2011 11:29 AM
Looks neat. I won't be getting one anytime soon. My DH would kill me! LOL! Maybe in a year or so when the price drops. Or maybe an awesome Black Friday deal? One can dream right?!ReplyDelete
~Tracy (firstname.lastname@example.com)
Looks good! I have a lot of the same questions as others do, too. Would love to see a video where you answer all of our questions (once you have time to figure it all out!) Thanks for all of your help and enthusiasm.ReplyDelete
Any idea on pricing? I just got the original expression 2 months ago, wish I had waited for this.ReplyDelete
I just bought my Imagine, now I'm having another machine envy. :) Can't wait to see how it works w/ the Imagine.ReplyDelete
I love the E2..When you loaded your paper the blade went to the paper on the left side of the mat without you moving the blade.
On the regular Expressions it starts cutting on the right side.
So does the E2 know where the paper is some how?
Oh, how exciting!! I think I want one!!! I will be looking forward to more reviews.ReplyDelete
Come on April 26th!!!!!!!!!!!!!ReplyDelete
Just got done with the class! Thanks Robyn!! :0) amangold (at) gmail.comReplyDelete
Oh wow, 4 cartridges! This seems like an awesome machine! Thanksfor sharing it with us.ReplyDelete
Love it I wish I could get one but I just got the baby cricut for christmas and I need to master it first before I venture out to getting something else but I really loe the cricut expression 2. Thank You Robyn for sharingReplyDelete
Ooooh I want one!! I know what I'm saving for! I think I would rather have this than the Imagine! :D Thanks for sharing Robyn!ReplyDelete
Oh wow!!!!! THat is so awesome!!! I love it!!!ReplyDelete
SOOO Cool! I have the imagine and the pink cricut E but I am thinking this would be a nice addition.ReplyDelete
Whoop Whoop... Thanks for jumping on the video so quick and sharing!ReplyDelete
- Robyn C.3/30/2011 12:21 PM
I think I am as excited about this machine as you are! Thank you for showing it to us!ReplyDelete
Love the new machine, but I have the ORGINAL CRICUT and the green one from Walmart. There is no way I could get this one. What about the cartridges that are pre loaded on the new E-2 can we get them? I feel left out I only have 12 cartdriges, and Provo Craft has mass produced way to many for my budget!! Congratulations on getting the new toy!!ReplyDelete
Oh My Gosh Robyn......ReplyDelete
I got goosebumps, I am sooo excited for the E2, I hope I can get one.....
thanks for the great video...
You are soooo lucky to have Christmas come to your door throughout the year. If you ever need someone to fill in for you... I'm Your Girl (lol). Love the new CE2. Have fun playing. Smooches...ReplyDelete
OMG! Love it. Now how am I going to justify this purchase to my husband?ReplyDelete
This Cricut is pretty awesome. Just a little bummed that this is the second release since I bought my original Expression for my birthday last July. No way I can fly this one past the hubs so soon. I love the carts, will they be available as a seperate purchase?ReplyDelete
It looks soooo cool! I want one!! Thanks for sharing right out of the box!ReplyDelete
Looks so cool! I sure hope the 4 carts are available, I want all four of them!! I don't think I'll get the machine now because nothing is wrong with my big E. Other than the computer screen, does it do anything the old E won't do? Thanks for sharing :)ReplyDelete
JLekan at gmail dot com
Thank for the video. I don't know if I will buy though so many gadgets coming out, I don't have room for them all.ReplyDelete
Ok looks ok. I am curious about a couple of things though like how you can load your cartridges on the machine? Can you load your cartridges on the machine? If you could answer that for me I would appreciate it. Thanks for sharing.ReplyDelete
Fun ! Fun ! Fun !ReplyDelete
Thank you for sharing :)
My husband is going to kill me when I purchase this new Cricut as I have 3 expressions and an Imagine..How lucky are you that you are able to sample it/demo it for us before the launch!ReplyDelete
Thanks so much!
So Cool!!! I want so much to be a Beta Tester.... How'd you do it <3... thanks so much for the information... You're Wonderful!!!ReplyDelete
OOOh I am so excited for this new machine! My biggest question ever since I saw it is....how will it cut with the Imagine carts? Will you show that please Robyn? Take care and I look forward to your next video with this awesome new machine!ReplyDelete
Now this is a machine that I would love to have! Thanks for the great video on this.ReplyDelete

Wow, I'm really blown away! Can't wait to get an "E2". :)ReplyDelete

Awesome video Robyn! I am so excited for the Cricut Expression 2! Counting the days till it launches on HSN!ReplyDelete
This is an impressive machine. I especially love the little light!ReplyDelete
I WANT ONE!!!!! BUT I WOULD BE HAPPY IF YOU GIVE ME YOUR OLD PINK CRICUT...LOLReplyDelete

- bunnyc3/30/2011 6:16 PM
thanks for the tutorial....it seems like an awesome machine.ReplyDelete
Oh would this ever be fun to have. Lucky you that you can preview it and play with it. I don't think I would want the Cricut Imagine because I think paying for the color cartridges would get expensive but this new CE2 looks like darn near perfect, and sleek and modern and lovely.....ReplyDelete
Love that you got one early. Though disappointed for you that it isn't PINK! How could you not be given a pink one - I thought on the Cricut 2 you could pick your color. I hope they rectify this for you.ReplyDelete
Everything pink rules--including you!!
- Dee Burns3/30/2011 6:30 PM
Love E2. Your video is so informative. Thanks for detailing some of the features. Can't wait for the launch.ReplyDelete
HOPE YOU HAVE A LIVESTREAM ON LAUNCH NIGHT...LET US KNOW...I'll be there.
WOW! This is a wonderful new machine. I will consider adding it to my personal(v1) and the all dark blue Expression. It would be great if we could choose the contrasting color, mine would be blue of course.ReplyDelete
I love your videos made for the new products you receive and taking them out of the box.
I got the imagine when it first came out..There is no way I can convince the hubby about this one! I WANT!!!ReplyDelete
You are so lucky to have your hands on that little baby!!!! I can hardly wait for April 26th!!! I'm LOVING it!!!
I can't wait to purchase! Absolutly love the changes.ReplyDelete
OMGoodness!!! I want it, the video is awesome. I heard it will come in different colors, will that be available in 4/26ReplyDelete
How exciting.. I can't wait to get my.. AND I can't wait to see you playing with it more... hugsReplyDelete
I believe that the E2 will be one I will like. I have the personal Cricut and the Imagine. When I saw videos from CHA, I mentioned it to my husband. He said he will get me one for Mother's Day. I hope it isn't too, too expensive on HSN like the Imagine, which is now much cheaper than on HSN.ReplyDelete
Awesome!!! im so pumped ~ I cannot wait until April26. I really like the area for the mat to slide into and the light feature! I will be saving my pennies!!!! does anyone know what the retail might be on the E2??ReplyDelete
diane ~ firstname.lastname@example.com
Oh my goodness, why oh why does PC have to do this to me?? It was hard enough to convince my husband I had to have the Imagine, but now this?? I have to have it (somehow!)ReplyDelete
I am going to need to start a cricut room like you have because I'm wanting anything cricut and this new expression was just put on the list! Looking forward to more videos with this machine!!ReplyDelete
OMG!!!! can't wait till April 26, thats a great day for me, one I want the CE2 and its my birthday!!! what a great birthday present!!! Can not wait!! thanks for the video, it just made my mind up!!!! I have to have the CE2!!!!!and can't wait till your next videos on this awesome machine!!!!Thanks,ReplyDelete
Tracy H. (cubbyhole)
You had me at hello!, Ha, really I already told my husband forget shopping for me for my birthday its coming early! Not just that, my classic E has well had a run in with the concrete once and the tile floor twice, two of the times was my oops and one 2 year old. Yes it has lost part of its shell and it also has a rattle inside. But IT still cuts, had it for 4 years. So.. . Thanks for demo-ing and sharing the carts installed!ReplyDelete
The E2 looks very interesting. Look forward to seeing you do more projects.ReplyDelete
Thank you so much for sharing!! Will you post more videos this month about the Cricut 2? I own an expression and am debating about purchasing the Cricut 2. Love all your videos!ReplyDelete

One quick question, will this work with the new Cricut craft room software?ReplyDelete
i remember hearing that the uk launch on Ideal World will not be the many months behind as it has been with all the other machines, and I can't help wondering if they are going to have it as a Pick Of The Day during their birthday week. I can't afford one, but know I will regret it if I don't get one.ReplyDelete
great vid.
How cool!!! Do you know how long it will be available? I have a wedding to pay off first. lolReplyDelete
I may not be able to resist this new machine. It has a lot of great features.ReplyDelete
- Maryjo3/31/2011 5:40 AM
Well thank you very much Robyn, I have been telling myself there is no need for this new machine. After seeing your video I have to have it. My husband will be so mad at you :) Thanks for the great video!ReplyDelete
Robyn what a terrific video. I am sooooo excited about the Cricut 2 it looks so great and your video makes it look as though it's very easy to learn how to use. Thanks again for another helpful video.ReplyDelete

Robyn, Im sold on the expression 2, Im sooo excited,. Seeing that it comes with the cartridges loaded does that mean we can load all of our cartridges like the gypsy?? Todays my birthday so its a good time to tell my husband what I want. LOL, I ll pass my expression on to my daughter. I can't say it enough, thank YOU so much for what you do. SharingReplyDelete
What a wonderful Cricut! I did not think they could improve on my Expression but they did! I want one! Please pick me, random picker.ReplyDelete

Love this new machine!! Thank you for sharing with us!! It's on my wish list!!ReplyDelete
I would absolutely love to have one of these machines. My E doesn't sound so well these days. I will definately be watching HSN on the 26th.ReplyDelete
I am so super excited about the Expression 2. I only have the expression and was considering others as they can out but I am glad that I waited. I think I might get this one.ReplyDelete

Awesome, I really like the machine. I am looking forward to the launch on HSN. I do wish they would share the price. It would help me save my pennies between now and then...why do they keep it such a secret? Great video. Will the new Expression 2 use the 12 X 24 mat and deep cut blade?ReplyDelete

Oh Robyn, I want one! I love love love my Expression, but I think I'll really like the 2. I'm looking forward to seeing you explore your new machine more. How fun!ReplyDelete
Hi RobynReplyDelete
Will the CE2 do the center point feature?
I read somewhere that you're not supposed to say things like this because it makes you seem older than you really are...but...new technology sometimes intimidates me.ReplyDelete
HOWEVER, your video makes me confident that this is something I could easily branch into and makes it exciting and fun and NOT intimidating! Thanks for the info

i watched you and bought it!!!! my firstReplyDelete
How did you know where to place the two colors ofReplyDelete
paper? Your screen didn't look like it indicated the measurements of the two pieces of paper you used. Did you program the sizes of paper into the E2 or what?

For more Badger sports news, notes and discussion, especially on game day, follow Badger Nation on Twitter @TheBadgerNation
MADISON - Bret Bielema won't have to change windbreakers, but he is changing conferences.
In a shocking decision, BadgerNation has confirmed that Bielema will leave the University of Wisconsin after seven seasons to take over the Arkansas Razorbacks.
Named the conference coach of the year in his first season in 2006, Bielema is 68-24 in seven seasons at Wisconsin. He was Bary Alvarez's hand-picked successor. An Iowa graduate, Bielema has never coached in the SEC, having spent time coaching at Iowa and Kansas State before coming to Wisconsin.
Bielema led Wisconsin to three 11-win seasons, took Wisconsin to a bowl game in all seven seasons and was ranked in the Associated Press top 10 during five of his seven seasons, including three seasons in the top five.
The move was the second stunning hire at Arkansas, which brought in John L. Smith after firing Bobby Petrino earlier this year after a scandal in which Petrino hired his mistress to work in the football department.
Arkansas was 21-5 the last two seasons, but went 4-8 this season under Smith. Athletic director Jeff Long announced after the season that Smith would not return.
The move comes three days after Wisconsin (8-5) upset No.12 Nebraska, 70-31, to win its third straight conference championship, and raises more than a few eyebrows considering previous comments the seventh-year coach has made.
Quoted this summer as saying, "We (Big Ten) don't want to be like SEC in any way, shape or form," Bielema also has touted his 2013 roster as being his best team yet.
The move also puts into question Wisconsin's 19-member 2013 recruiting class, which includes three four-star recruits (tailback Corey Clement, safety Tyler Foreman and receiver Rob Wheelwright) from outside the state.
Stay tuned for much more on this move from BadgerNation.com

Disney's pirates, princesses to bring adventure to Reading
Jake and the Never Land Pirates, Sofia the First to team up for new show
READING, Pa. - The characters from two of Disney's most popular TV series will be appearing together on stage in Reading this fall.
Feld Entertainment, producers of Disney On Ice and Disney Live!, will present Disney Junior Live On Tour! Pirate and Princess Adventure at the Sovereign Center on Nov. 8.
The new stage show features characters from the hit Disney Channel shows Sofia the First and Jake and the Never Land Pirates.
"The Feld Entertainment mission of providing quality live entertainment experiences that the entire family enjoys starts with Disney Live! because it is often a young fan's first theatrical experience," said producer Alana Feld. "Children everywhere are falling in love with Sofia and Jake, and we are thrilled to bring these popular Disney Junior characters to the stage for the first time ever."
In an original storyline, Mickey and Minnie will lead the audience on an exciting adventure that will have families rooting for their favorite pirate, Jake, and Disney's first little girl princess, Sofia, the show's producers said.
A special interactive pre-show will feature Doc McStuffins, the loveable 6-year-old doctor to toys and stuffed animals.
Audiences will then embark on a journey to the magical world of Enchancia, where Sofia, her step-siblings Amber and James, and the entire kingdom are preparing for the annual friendship festival. Sofia has the honor of delivering the perfect gift to her royal subjects at the celebration, and the one-and-only Cinderella visits the castle to help Sofia in her mission to find just the right present.
The excitement continues when families cast away to Never Land, where Jake and his Yo Ho pirate friends Izzy and Cubby are in a race against time to locate a mysterious treasure-filled volcano. Danger, thrills and adventure lurk around every turn when they battle Captain Hook for the ultimate prize. Peter Pan makes a special appearance, aiding the team in their heroic quest, and with the help of Tinker Bell's pixie dust, Jake and his crew fly above the stage in their journey.
In 2012, "Doc McStuffins" and "Jake and the Never Land Pirates" ranked as cable TV's top 2 series for all kids ages 2-5.
Launching at the top in 2013, "Sofia the First" is cable TV's #1 series year to date among kids 2-5 and girls 2-5.
