News and commentary from the Pro-Life Action League
We often think of Planned Parenthood as the enemy. How could we not, considering they are the nation's largest abortion chain, and aggressively promote promiscuous sexual behavior that leads to unplanned pregnancy and abortion?
As a result, our natural instinct is to demonize them and, in many cases, their employees. So rooted in our pro-life convictions, it can be difficult to conceive of an abortion worker being driven by compassion—however misguided.
Linda Couri was one such worker. Idealistic, big-hearted and lacking real spiritual guidance, she was easily swayed by Planned Parenthood's mantra of "care." Also driving her towards Planned Parenthood was the need to reinforce her denial about her own abortion in her early 20′s.
But as a social worker in the clinic, it was only a matter of time before she was forced to face the big questions. A teenage girl asked Linda if she was killing her child. A shaken nurse tearfully asked if they were doing the right thing. Linda struggled to find honest answers. [Continue reading ...]
Last week, Pope Francis made what I consider to be the most profound pro-life statement of his pontificate to date by praying at a gravesite in South Korea where abortion victims are buried. The cemetery is on the grounds of Kkottongnae Home, a Catholic charity that serves the elderly and disabled.
The Holy Father's visit to this cemetery for the aborted unborn comes only a month before the National Day of Remembrance for Aborted Children is set to take place here in the United States, of which the Pro-Life Action League is a major sponsor.
On Saturday, September 13, solemn memorial services will be held at more than 40 gravesites throughout the United States where abortion victims have been mercifully interred by pro-life activists. Vigils will also be held at dozens of other memorial markers dedicated to these children.
As one of the main organizers of this event, I find it both gratifying and inspiring to see Pope Francis doing exactly what thousands of pro-life Christians—both Catholic and Protestant—will be doing in just a few weeks: mourning for the victims of abortion, right where their tiny bodies are buried.
The power of this kind of pro-life witness was illustrated in some of the mainstream media coverage of the Pope's visit to the grave. The ABC News story on the visit actually used the words "aborted children" to describe who was buried there! [Continue reading ...]
Eric Scheidler visits the Catacombs of Callixtus, June 2014
If you ever visit the ancient Christian catacombs scattered about the outskirts of Rome, you'll see countless small tombs dug into the walls, only a foot of two across. These are the burial places of infants, cast out of their pagan homes and left to die of starvation and exposure. Though abortion was practiced in the ancient world, this form of infanticide was a far more common way to get rid of an unwanted child.
Many of these rejected children were rescued by Christians, nursed back to health and given homes, in obedience to Christ's command to serve the least of his brothers and sisters. But all too often, the only act of love the early Church could offer these children was to bury their little bodies and offer prayers of mourning for them.
Earlier this summer, I had the opportunity to visit the Catacombs of Callixtus while on a pilgrimage to Rome with my wife April. As we walked through the cool, musty corridors of the underground complex, I was struck by the thought that we Christians today are carrying on this work of mercy—rescuing the bodies of abandoned, unwanted children and giving them the only gift we can, the gift of a proper burial.
Again and again, pro-life activists have found the bodies of these children in trash dumpsters, or on the loading docks of medical waste facilities. And just like the early Church, they have spoken out against the injustice, solemnly buried the victims, and mourned over their bodies.
These burial places can be found throughout the United States. In all, there are some 43 gravesites of the aborted unborn, from the Shrine of the Most Blessed Sacrament in Hanceville, Alabama, where four aborted children are buried to the grave of over 16,000 abortion victims at Odd Fellows Cemetery in Los Angeles.

It happens all too often that a person's ideology and moral conscience are in deep conflict.
This is exemplified in the story of Catherine Adair, who was so entrenched in her "pro-choice" philosophy that she couldn't see that the guilt and depression she so regularly experienced stemmed from an abortion in her youth.
Her way of dealing with this conflict was to throw herself into radical feminism at an early age—to so fully commit herself to the pro-abortion philosophy that there was simply no way she would have to face the real source or her problems.
The full realization of this commitment came when she joined Planned Parenthood as a counselor, ushering other women through the same process she had gone through years before. [Continue reading ...]

Along with my husband Joe and our eldest son Eric, I was honored to be among the featured presenters at the fourth annual National Sidewalk Counseling Symposium in Birmingham, Alabama, sponsored by our friends at Pro-Life Action Ministries.
Birmingham was selected as the site at the invitation of Fr. Terry Gensemer of the Charismatic Episcopal Church. The past three conferences have been held in the Twin Cities, where PLAM is based, but this time director Brian Gibson jumped at the chance to hold the meeting in a different part of the country, making it available to sidewalk counselors in the South.

Facing unseasonably chilly weather for August, a group of committed pro-life activists from northeastern Illinois and southeastern Wisconsin joined us August 12 for the 11th annual "Face the Truth" Day in Rockford, Illinois.
As is the case with most days when we show pictures of abortion victims, the reactions from passersby varied considerably, ranging from sincere gratitude and praise to unhinged opposition and even violence.
Nearing the conclusion of the 90-minute stint at our first site at the intersection of Riverside Boulevard and Alpine Road, a woman pulled over her car, flagged me down, and said she wanted to thank us for being there.
She said that on one of the occasions when we had visited Rockford years ago, her best friend's daughter—then a teenager—had seen our abortion victim signs. When she got pregnant a few years later, she said there was no way she could have an abortion, because having seen our signs years before, she knew how awful abortion was, and she made up her mind that she was not going to let that happen to her baby.

Cemetery for Aborted Children in Kkottongnae, South Korea [Photo via Catholic News Agency]
Over the weekend Catholic News Agency announced that Pope Francis will visit a "Cemetery for Aborted Children" at the Kkottongnae Home for the Sick during his trip to South Korea later this week.
As a Catholic and as a pro-life activist who is assisting with the preparations for the second annual National Day of Remembrance for Aborted Children on September 13, I was doubly thrilled to see, yet again, the Holy Father leading by example. Clearly, he understands the importance of visiting — physically, in person, visiting — sites that serve as memorials to aborted children, and so must the rest of us.
The motivation for the National Day of Remembrance is inspired by the words of Jesus, "Blessed are they who mourn, for they shall be comforted," and the realization that we have an obligation to mourn the loss of our brothers and sisters who have been killed by abortion. [Continue reading ...]
Pro-life activists take part in the 2013 Face the Truth day in Rockford, Illinois [Photo by Sam Scheidler]
In early 2011, Northern Illinois Women's Center, the notoriously creepy abortion center in Rockford, Illinois, closed its doors for good after the state found deplorable health conditions inside.
The local pro-life community was overjoyed at the victory God had granted them after many years of hard work, but even now, they're not about to rest on their laurels.
In addition to praying and sidewalk counseling at other abortion facilities in northern Illinois, the pro-lifers in Illinois' third largest city are continuing their longstanding tradition of a summer Face the Truth day, which the Pro-Life Action League will sponsor on Tuesday, August 12.
The Tour will visit three sites over the course of the day: [Continue reading ...]
On July 11, 2014, the Pro-Life Action League set out on our 15th annual "Face the Truth" Tour, bringing images of the victims of abortion to 24 major intersections across northeast Illinois to expose the brutal reality of this barbaric practice.
In addition to the full-time League staff, we were pleased to have four of National Director Joe Scheidler's 22 grandchildren on this year's Tour staff: Nate, Sam and Liza Scheidler and Aaron Miller were an indispensable part of the team.
This year's tour reached hundreds of thousands of pedestrians and motorists with the truth about abortion, and we distributed over 12,000 pieces of pro-life literature to passersby! [Continue reading ...]

I was at Alpine on the 26th–30th…on one of the most EPIC moments of the year. I skied at Roundhouse and Summit chairs, being careful not too fall much or get injured. We have season passes and were happy to have all that worked out in advance. I was also relieved that the snow was good and not wet as it can be at Tahoe.
We were JAZZED to also get to ski on lakeview chair Friday. We were also MARRIED at the top of the lakeview chair on March 1, 1998.

Do you think more can be done amongst the youth and young people to combat cyber bullying?
We have already touched on ideas we can stop cyber bullying.
It is seen to be rampant amongst the young, but it also affects young adults (workplace bullying). Misuse of the Internet, especially when the use of the internet and social media is almost ubiquitous in today's wired generation is also becoming increasingly common.
We have all seen various cases of cyber bullying leading to suicide e.g Amanda Todd, Hannah Smith
I feel that one of the main causes of bullying is apathy amongst the crowds; we are too afraid to intervene in a bullying case for fear of being targeted ourselves.
It has also become common to set up memorial pages on Facebook after a person has died to spread awareness. However, these pages are often also targeted by other bullies and defaced. While we can spread awareness through Facebook 'likes', it often does not do anything to solve the issue.
Just a shout out, what do you all think can be done to create awareness / mitigate the problem? Government policies, school administration, amongst the youth.. etc.
Examples of things done to combat cyberbullying in your own communities / countries would be helpful too!
cheers :)

Aug 28 2013: As delusional as this may sound, I believe cyber bullying is an over accentuated topic. If kids are willing to harm themselves and others or attempt suicide just because of moronic and barely coherent statements made by other ignorant students, we shouldn't be addressing the bullies, rather, we should address the mental stability of the victims. It stands to reason that a truly intelligent and stable person would realize the pettiness of the bully's tactics and be able to brush off the hate. I'm not saying that bullying should be ignored simply because it can act as a distraction from education, but the problem shouldn't have to receive such emphasis.
Aug 28 2013: Your comment does not sound "delusional" Kevin. I agree with you that generally, "a truly intelligent and stable person would realize the pettiness of the bully's tactics", and be able to brush it off.
Unfortunately, bullying is not only about "barely coherent statements....". It often includes physical violence toward kids as well. Young kids are often not "stable" because they are experiencing hormonal changes, and the brain is not fully developed.
I agree with you that we need to address the bullying behaviors as well as the stability of the victims, because both the bully and the victim are generally insecure and lack self confidence. It would be helpful to empower and encourage all kids to be all that they can be without threatening the well being of others.
Aug 28 2013: That's true Kevin. Abuse may not be as big a challenge if kids could stand up for themselves. As you write in your profile.....knowledge is power. Sometimes, kids don't have the knowledge and courage to stand up for themselves, and I think we can all help with that issue.
What do you mean....if a victim fights back they get scorned? Do you mean scorned by the bully and his buddies? Or do you think the general population scorns the victim?
Aug 31 2013: Kevin,
Thanks for your reply...
Kevin Jacobson
1 day ago: "I mean that if a student defends them self they get scorned by the teachers."
Wow....that's too bad that the teachers "scorn" students who try to defend themselves! Many schools have educational programs in place now and/or councilors to address bullying. Does your school have anything like that?
Aug 29 2013: Bryan and Kevin,
How about if we work on "crushing" the bully behavior?
I totally agree Bryan, that some people only understand power, so perhaps we have the power to change the bullying behaviors? If bullies only realized that they project weakness, rather than strength, it may make a difference?

• Our best-seller and fan favorite
• As gentle as it gets — soothes and cleanses, leaving skin smooth and soft
• Mild, soap-free formula cleanses without irritation — it won't strip skin of its natural protective oils or emollients
• Moisturizes without leaving residue that can clog pores
• Good for special skin needs including those of rosacea-prone skin

I love the Gentle skin ceanser. I wash my hands all the time and I have very sensitive skin. The skin on my hands tend to dry out, crack and bleed on my knucles and around the nail beds. The very first time I used this I had instant results. I was so pleased to find something that is so smooth and nonirritating. I used this for my4year old son who suffers from itchy super dry skin and eczema. His skin now feels normal and sooo soft. He dosn't come up to me anymore begging for me to scratch his back. If only cetaphil made a shampoo that lovely.
Ellen C. (Submitted on 9th Jun 2014)
I am in my 50s and I have been using this cleanser for close to 30 years. It is an essential in my daily beauty regimen and I have even used it as a base to compound my own exfoliator. I have tried many other cleansers from high end cosmetic companies but I always go back to Cetaphil. I swear by this product and I highly recommend it to anyone who wants to maintain young-looking, beautiful skin for the rest of their lives.
eliezer cazares (Submitted on 4th Jun 2014)
This product can be a self-esteem saver, as in my case, but it's sad that I had to import the product from our neighbors in USA instead of getting it easily at a supermarket. I'd be all up to import and distribute the product. Congrats. Keep it up.
Jen (Submitted on 15th May 2014)
My dermatologist sent me home with a list of cleaners to choose from after an appointment I had and I decided to go with this Cetaphil cleanser because it was supposed to be really gentle and let me tell you, IT IS!
I use it everyday, twice a day and the results I've gotten with using this plus the medication the doctor prescribed are amazing!
I've had acne for 7 years but after using this in my routine, the majority of my skin has cleared up.
The actual cleanser doesn't suds up or make bubbles which I was kind of weirded out by at first but I realized it doesn't do it because it doesn't have any harsh chemicals in it to make it do that. It leaves my skin feeling soft and even though I still use a moisturizer with SPF, this cleanser doesn't dry my skin out or anything!

Digital Prima Guides Come to ImpulseStardock's Impulse digital storefront will now be selling Prima's eGuides, which take all the fun and wonder of a video game guidebook and convert it into a digital format.
The initial selection of seven guides includes some odd choices, offering only four guides for currently available PC games. One of them, Fallout: New Vegas, is even a Steamworks game, which Stardock refuses to sell on Impulse.
There are also two guides for Wii games--GoldenEye 007 and PokePark Wii: Pikachu's Adventure--which is incredibly confusing, especially for PokePark, a game aimed at children. I doubt many kids use Impulse and parents will probably just grab the guide in-store when buying the game.
"Fifty-two guides from various titles are scheduled to hit Impulse in the coming weeks, making Impulse the best online destination for official guides," Brian Clair, director of publishing for Stardock, told Shacknews. Prices for the guides range from $14.99 to $24.99.
Only two of the games are currently sold by Impulse--Arcania: Gothic 4 and The Sims 3: Late Night--and I don't know who would buy something like Fallout: New Vegas on Steam only to then buy the guide in Impulse.
These eGuides, which are PDF versions of the print guides, are different from the integrated guides offered exclusively through Steam for certain games.

|I never want
to take ANYTHING for granted, but the Big Ten schedule is fairly easy next year. This year we had too many "brain farts" where one simple error cost us the game. We should have had 4 or 5 more wins than we actually had.
Coach will work on these with the younger players and this will get fixed. The key is going to be how much the defense will improve. Pitching and hitting will not be a problem.
Like I always say, "Sometimes even the better team loses". This is why we actually play the game. This drives coaches crazy. When your team gets beat by a superior team, and your team played well, then all the coach can do is work harder. However, when the defense makes errors, batters look at 3rd strikes, or pitchers walk too many batters; a loss is more difficult to take. Overall next year will be better than this year.

why have the scrimmage open? Did Hoke think the OL was\is better than the performance? Does Hoke know the OL is bad and wants to put undue pressure on them?

ranking (not to be confused with High Times) is heavily focused on acedemics. I think it is a better measure of how well the school educates its students and how that education is perceived world wise. I wonder what ranking High Times would give us?
The USN&WR's rankings are a joke because they factor in such things as quality of life, access to public transportation, the number of pizza places within walking distance, intermural sports etc. Now these things are all important but the #1 reason to go to school is to get educated. Partying should be #21 on the list of priorities (IMO).

|Hi MGO
I live in Port Huron and I have done this trip a few times as a passenger, never as a Captain. EZ Bud is correct. It is all basedon the weather. Bad weather = unhappy Momma.
The Customs and Immigration issue is quite simple. If you are going to be registered at Canada immigration and the vessel departs from Sarnia, you can traverse the waterway without any issues. Techically you will NOT leave Canada as the waterway is dual owned.
The issue becomes when you step on land in the US. If you have a mechanical or medical issue you MUST call US Coast Guard Station and identify a problem. They will give you direction but your Captain should know this. You never want to stop at Sans Souci Bar on Harsen's Island or Gars in Marine City for a few. Has it been done before without any issues? Sure. Have I stopped in Canada for 1 or 10 without declaring???? (5th Amendment protection here).
As long as the vessell meets the regulation for life jackets, navigation lights etc and everyone has passports; you will be golden. Make sure to take your jacket, even in 80 degree heat because she can get cold very quickly.
If you have a few minutes, give me a shout and I will buy you that beer that I owe you. Have fun nonetheless.

I would like to see the data for the past 25 years. What percentage of games did we cover (or not cover) the spread? My guess is about 35-40% but that is just a guess. I dont have time to crunch this data. I am working on another data collection project currently.

160 fans queue for surprise Foals gig
Updated 1:43pm Saturday 1st February 2014 in News By Pete Hughes, Reporter covering Abingdon and Wantage, South Oxford and Kennington. Call me on 01865 425431
One-hundred and sixty fans queued this morning for tickets for a surprise Foals gig in Oxford tonight.
Mark Taylor started queueing from 6.30am this morning outside Cowley Road's O2 Academy to get tickets for the special gig.
He was the first in a queue of 160 fans who this morning got their hands on £20 tickets to see Oxford's Foals playing a one-off home town show tonight at the venue.
Another 240 Foals fans snapped up tickets online minutes after 10am.
Mr Taylor, 43, who lives in Summertown, bought one ticket for him and one for his 16-year-old niece Sophie, who lives in Hampton Poyle near Kidlington.
He said: "It is a show you just don't want to miss. They're one of the biggest indie bands in the world right now, playing in a smaller room than the last time they played here."
Foals - made up of lead singer and guitarist Yannis Philippakis, drummer Jack Bevan, keyboard player Edwin Congreave, guitarist Jimmy Smith and bassist Walter Gervers - formed in Oxford in 2007 and released their debut album Antidotes the following year.
Their second album, Total Life Forever, was nominated for the 2010 Mercury Prize and last year's Holy Fire reached number two on the UK album chart, and again was nominated for the Mercury Prize.
The Academy's promotions manager Katie Herring said: "It's going to be a great gig. The atmosphere is really buzzing. I think we should definitely do more last-minute gigs like this."
Foals will be supported tonight by founder member Andrew Mears, under his current moniker Pet Moon.

What about the job market?
While I see the validity of Robinson's talk, I am concerned that if we encourage the youth to pursue artsy careers they may end up in financial trouble. I am currently a freshman in college and I see firsthand that the majors such as dance, music, etc., are extremely hard to become successful in. The best paying jobs lie within engineering, technology, and mathematics.
Questions to consider: Can there be a balance between academics and arts? Is fulfilling your passion more important than financial security?

Mar 6 2013: robinson's point is that we have no idea what kind of jobs will be needed in 5 years, let alone 20. we will need more computer guys? managers? engineers? biologists? we don't know, and therefore we should not have a one-size-fits-all generalized schooling system that is 500 years old. we need to teach kids to be flexible and dynamic. it is not art vs science.
Mar 6 2013: Krisztián Pintér, I understand what you are saying. However, even in the title of the talk, "Schools kill creativity", he is comparing the two side by side... I also don't feel that our schooling system is "one size fits all". While I do agree that it needs tweaking, we should not chastize the system that has brought us to where we are today.
Mar 6 2013: this conversation is closing, so as sorta closing statement, i recommend these talks

Four to eight inches of snow predicted for Louisville
Mayor Jerry Abramson said today that the city is ready to battle the snowstorm scheduled to arrive late this afternoon. Forecasters anticipate four to eight inches of snow, followed by freezing rain or sleet.
"Our Public Works crews will be in their trucks and on the roads before the snow begins falling today," Abramson said. "We're keeping our day shift late and bringing the overnight shift in early so we'll have plenty of people working all night."
The city has 129 pieces of snow equipment including salt trucks, brine trucks and plows. In addition, 257 employees from four different agencies coordinate the city's snow removal efforts. Residents can check their progress in real time by visiting www.louisvilleky.gov and clicking on "Snow Removal Updates", which highlights which streets have been treated or plowed.
Temperatures have been too low today to pretreat the roads with brine – a salt and water solution that has been used more than a dozen times so far this season. Because the road temperatures are below freezing, the brine would freeze to the roads. Instead, Public Works crews will begin salting as soon as snow begins falling.
"The addition of an overnight Public Works crew has made a tremendous difference in the way we handle winter storms," said Ted Pullen, the director of Metro Public Works. "The overnight crew has improved efficiency and cut our overtime costs for weather preparation in half."
Crews will cover 1,000 miles of roads in Louisville, with special attention to hills, bridges and overpasses. Crews will continue treating the roads overnight to ensure safe travel in the morning.
"As always, we encourage drivers to take extra precautions when the roads are snowy or slushy," Abramson said. "Take hills and curves slowly, and don't forget that many side streets and neighborhood streets won't be treated, so that may be the most difficult part of your commute."

It was an elaborate crackdown, the first of its kind in West Bridgewater: Plainclothes officers stationed along Route 106 spotted dozens of people engrossed in their cellphones while they drove. A quarter-mile ahead, uniformed officers pulled the drivers over, 51 in total, for texting while driving.
But while 37 people were given $100 citations or warnings, 14 others were let go. They were not texting, they explained; they were dialing a call or looking at directions, both still legal.

Twins-Reds: LineupsPosted on March 26th, 2009 – 4:40 PM
By La Velle
Sorry this is late. We had to wait for the manager to monitor all of batting practice and most of infield practice before he graced us with his presence.
Carlos Gomez could be available as early as tomorrow as he recovers from a sore back. Gomez said he could have played this week but the trainers told him it's not worth pushing it.
Tonight's game is televised on FSN. Bert Blyleven who was last seen on the bench for the Netherlands in the World Baseball Classic is one the scene. The Twins' games against St. Louis on Sunday (on WFTC) and Tampa Bay on Monday (on FSN) will also be televised.
There will be roster moves tomorrow morning. I would not be surprised if this one hits double digits.
Twins: 1. Span, CF. 2. Casilla, 2B. 3. Harris, 3B. 4. Morneau, 1B. 5. Cuddyer, RF. 6. Young, LF. 7. Redmond, C. 8. Punto, SS. 9. Blackburn P. Ayala, Nathan, Henn, Duensing, Mijares, Keppel and Crain also on the list to pitch.
Reds: 1. Taveras, CF. 2. Hariston, SS. 3. Votto, 1B. 4. Phillips, 2B. 5. Bruce, RF. 6. Keppinger, 3B. 7. Dickerson, LF, 8, Hernandez, C. 9. Owings, P. Weathers, Lincoln and Cordero on the list to pitch.

A Sacramento Superior Court judge on Monday ordered the agency building Californias high-speed rail system to rescind its original funding plan, a decision that figures to halt state bond funding for the $68 billion project until a new plan is put in place.
But, in another ruling in the same case, Judge Michael P. Kenny refused to block the California High-Speed Rail Authority from spending the $3.4 billion in federal money it already has obtained to build an initial rail segment near Fresno.
In a second case, Kenny declined the rail authoritys request to validate its issuance of $8 billion in bonds that California voters approved in 2008 in Proposition 1A. The ruling sets the stage for several of the projects opponents to challenge its financing even further.
While the rulings appeared to be a setback for construction of a bullet train that would travel from Los Angeles to San Francisco through the Central Valley, advocates on both sides argued over just how bad it was for the future of high-speed rail in California.
Plaintiffs attorneys who represented a grower, a homeowner and the Kings County Board of Supervisors, maintained that Kennys rulings amounted to a golden spike through the heart of the train.
Theyre stymied, said Michael J. Brady, a Redwood City lawyer for the plaintiffs. Brady interpreted the ruling to mean that the project cant move forward until the state identifies where its funding will come from and obtains environmental clearances on its proposed 290-mile usable segment from Merced to the San Fernando Valley.
A prepared statement by Dan Richard, board chairman of the California High-Speed Rail Authority board, disagreed.
Richards statement said the court again declined the oppositions request to stop the high-speed rail project from moving forward.
Kenny did not invalidate the bonds as approved by the voters, Richard said. Like all transformative projects, we understand there will be many challenges that will be addressed as we go forward, his statement said.
Kenny ruled in August that the rail authority was out of compliance with the mandates of Proposition 1A, the initiative authorizing $9.95 billion for bullet train construction, on matters related to its funding stream and environmental clearances.
In a hearing last month, the plaintiffs sought not just the rescission of the funding plan, but a court order to keep the state from spending any federal money that is contingent on a state match.
Along with $3.4 billion from the federal government, the authority has obtained approval from the state Legislature to receive $2.6billion in Proposition 1A funds. It was not immediately clear if Kennys ruling on state bond funding applied to the July 2012 action by lawmakers.
Even if the authority can spend the money, the plaintiffs say that still leaves the state $25billion short of the amount needed for the Merced-to-San Fernando segment, with more environmental hurdles in the way.
So thats a question of huge delays, Brady said.
As for the judge refusing to block the expenditure of the federal funds, Brady said, I believe the federal government as a political and legal matter will now take a long, hard look, and they will ask themselves, this ruling means no matching funds can be put up possibly for years, if ever, until all these deficiencies are cured.
Were very pleased, Brady said. We think this project is now at a standstill, where it should be.
High-speed rail officials declined to comment beyond Richards statement.
Rod Diridon, a former Santa Clara County supervisor and one-time high-speed rail board chairman, said the ruling will likely make the project more expensive and take longer to finish. But he insisted it wont stop the project.
The authority already has environmental clearances for a 29-mile stretch from Madera to Fresno and the money to build it, said Diridon, now executive director of the Mineta Transportation Institute in San Jose.
Based on talking to a lot of people around the world, I think once the high-speed rail filibuster has been broken in America, youll see a franchise bid come forward, Diridon said. That franchise bid is when (interests from) China or Japan or Korea or Germany and Italy step forward for the right to operate the system and retain the profit for the next 30, 40 or 50 years. All it takes for the dirt to be turned is a valid environmental clearance and contract in the Central Valley.
Kenny turned down the authoritys application for a bond validation on grounds that a finance committee created under the 2008 initiative did not comply with an essential legal requirement to put evidence on the record on why the issuance of the bonds would be necessary or desirable.
In light of the other ruling on the funding plan, I think the committee would have a very hard time justifying, Lets go ahead and issue the bonds, a second plaintiffs lawyer, Stuart M. Flashman of Oakland, said in an interview.
Diridon said the validation ruling will allow seven possible challenges to the bonds to go ahead separately rather than in one case. The validation opponents include the plaintiffs in the funding case Hanford area grower John Tos, homeowner Aaron Fukuda and Kings County. Others were the Kings County Water District and Citizens for California High-Speed Rail Accountability, the Howard Jarvis Taxpayers Association, Union Pacific Railroad, Eugene Voiland, Kern County and the Free Will Baptist Church.

A word from Salut Bar Americain - St. Paul
Salut Bar Americain - St. Paul is the brasserie down the block. Warm and welcoming, with an urbane wit and urban sensibility, it's an afternoon hangout and an evening refuge. It's your neighbor with a French accent. The setting evokes a classic Parisian bistro/restaurant. The service is spirited, confident and capably executed. And the cooking captures the freshness and hearty flavor of French cuisine. It's the vibe inside that sets Salut apart from bowing maitre 'd's and sniffing sommeliers. From the welcoming wine list, to the playful décor, to the genial buzz in the dining room, Salut celebrates the French restaurant's essential qualities while dispensing with the exclusionary ones. It demystifies French food by making it accessible and rewarding while poking fun at the stereotypes that surround it. In this sense, Salut is a dual citizen: Authentically French! Book the Le Grand Boeuf family-style feast, serving 8-10 people. Call Liz Jobe to make your reservation 651.917.2345.Continued

- another great mealOpenTable Diner Since 2007VIPDined on 9/7/2014Salut is my go-to place; never a complaint about the food. The waitress this time was distracted it seemed, but overall she was prompt and efficient. That's an anomaly for Salut. Can't get enough of the Bearnaise sauce for the fries! Come check it out?Special Features:
- Very Nice experience except hostessLackingServiceDined on 9/7/2014Had a great experience except when I first arrived. The hostess was horrible and rude. She almost made me leave. I have never had so much attitude from one person in my life. She was very short with me and made a point to not answer my question, she just ignored me and helped the next person behind me. I didn't let her ruin my brunch and the rest of the staff was great. the waitress was amazing and very informative. all in all a good experience. Would have been a great experience if the hostess was not thereSpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Beautiful patioSusanVIPDined on 9/7/2014Table on the patio. Omelette and croissants for brunch. Smiling and efficient waitress. What could be better?Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- MediocrejanebeDined on 9/5/2014I've been to Salut often. This was the worst experience I had. The waitress was short & not very friendly; she was inattentive, never asked if we needed anything more, never asked if I wanted another drink, etc. The salad I had seemed to have no dressing on it. I won't rush to return.
- ThanksOpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 9/3/2014Had a great waiter--very friendly and helpful. Food was good, fast and service was terrificSpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Disappointing serviceJuliasMomDined on 8/31/2014I was disappointed in the service we experienced when we went to Salut for our anniversary. Even though I had let them know we were celebrating, no one mentioned it the entire time we were there. Instead, our server complained she was working a double shift, could not remember the specials, and was generally inattentive. Food was great, and for a casual meal I'd visit again, but for our next special occasion we'll go elsewhere.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- FabulousPassingThroughDined on 8/29/2014Enjoyed a fabulous meal with great service from Kyle! Four of us different tastes yet aquite satisfied. Hangar steak by far the favorite item ordered but burgers & pasta enjoyable as well! Will definitely go back when in town!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

- Lunch menu fabulous!OpenTable Diner Since 2007VIPDined on 8/29/2014I usually have the daily quiche special for lunch, however I had the Leetle Beeg Mac this time around and it was a perfect size plate for lunch! Of course, you have to get the pommes frites, they are the best!Special Features:
- OpenTable Diner Since 2011VIPDined on 8/26/2014Great service--attentive but not hovering--informative and gracious.Special Features:
- Not at their bestfoodforthoughtVIPDined on 8/24/2014I've eaten at Salut Bar many times. The last visit they were off their game. Took forever for drinks to arrive. Ditto the appetizers. Then we sat at the table with dirty dishes for a long time. Then got rushed through the rest of the meal. The server's excuse was, "My station is really full tonight." A manager offered to comp the desserts but the server then brought an outdated menu offering items that weren't available. The hanger steak is great, but the experience left a bad taste.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Not as good as it could be.SaraDined on 8/24/2014I had a chicken club and you couldn't eat it. Chicken was cold and solid, tomato slid out, bacon was cold and stiff with no taste, bun was solid. Just not a pleasant experience. A good restaurant should know that this sandwhich doesn't work. People who had toast that was cold and dry. Why does that need to happen.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great food, spiced right!James7777777Dined on 8/20/2014Great service and food here at Salut. The sauces used here unlike anything I have eaten before. I had the Wednesday walleye special. SUPERB!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Very GoodOpenTableStupidNicknameVIPDined on 8/18/2014Both Salut locations have very good food and polished service. The St. Paul location has (in my opinion) a more laid back vibe, and also a much bigger outdoor patio. What this location really needs to do is form a coalition with other businesses on the block to find better parking solutions. Half of the spaces in the large lot behind the restaurant are now reserved until 7pm for a dentist office... it's ridiculous having to drive around for 10 minutes just to find a spot.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Nice for Sunday BrunchChriskVIPDined on 8/17/2014The food is consistently good and nicely priced. We have come for both brunch and dinner and it is always a great experience.Special Features:
- nice placecellinaVIPDined on 8/16/2014The food was great and the out door was great. We enjoyed so muchSpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

- Always goodSusanVIPDined on 8/14/2014Beautiful outdoor dining. Wide range of menu choices. Good service. Hard to beat.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- A Slow DeclineApottVIPDined on 8/10/2014Salut's slow decline since its opening years ago remains evident. We practically begged our waitress to take our order before she became inexplicably absent yet again. The shrimp and salmon salad, my favorite menu item, has been losing ingredients over time and was prepared with evident carelessness. The only saving grace are the French fries, but watch out- these are often small scraps from the bottom of the deep fryer!Special Features:
- Love it for brunch.SupperClubFanaticDined on 8/10/2014Oysters on the half-shell....outstanding. Mimosa.....outstanding. Quiche.....outstanding. Server.....outstanding. Sitting outside and watching the people stroll by on Grand.....such a great way to enjoy brunch.Special Features:
- A personal favorite.jgoaksDined on 8/9/2014I love French food. This is one of the best french restaurants in town. Great atmosphere and the staff is awesome. I have been here several times with my wife and its definatly one of our go to places. We have had breakfast, the quiche is wonderful. We've had dinner here and the duck a la orange is awesome. We have always had a great experience when dining here. We even had our wedding reception here in the back room. Very memerable.Special Features:
- Patio dining is great!CindyDined on 8/7/2014We had a group of 5 and wanted to enjoy the nice weather and sit outside. It was worth the short wait for a patio table. The service was great, the server was attentive but not hovering over us. The fries and Bearnaise sauce were up to their great standards here, they are really a "must order" item. Everyone was happy with their meal, especially the lemon tart!Special Features:
- Disappointing FoodCliffDined on 8/6/2014Pasta dinner was fine. Walleye not as good. Wine was nice.Special Features:
- Superior ServiceDKisbyDined on 8/2/2014This was our 4th time dining at Salut. While there isn't a huge menu, there doesn't need to be - everything is excellent. What set this trip apart for us was our server Diana. She was absolutely wonderful. She was personable and professional at the same time. She took the time to listen and never made us feel rushed. We'll be back again soon - and we'll request Diana to be our server. Salut - keep doing things right!!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- OpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 8/2/2014We very much enjoyed the food, the experience, and our wait person was excellent! I apologize, I cannot remember her name, but she was a gem. I have been there a few times and do enjoy the atmosphere and food!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- BirthdayCelebrationDined on 7/28/2014Exceptional service. Chef brought out the appetizer himself and explained the ingredients. Waitress provided great recommendations, and when the kitchen made an error in our order, the waitress provided my wife with the extra scallops at no charge. Made the evening a very memorable one for my wife's birthday.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

- A St. Paul FavoriteAMPAMFDined on 7/26/2014My boyfriend and I went to Salut on the recommendation of a friend almost a year ago, and that was enough to make it a regular stop every time we take a trip to the Cities. The wait staff are amazing and knowledgeable, the food is always amazing, the ambiance is perfect for either a nice, romantic dinner or a gathering with friends, and the prices are good for the quality and quantity of food you get. Granted, we've always ordered the filet - with the exception of our first trip there, when I ordered the Lobster Thermadore - but we've ordered it with different accompaniments and have always been impressed.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

By Drew Markol, Contributing Editor
Philadelphia, PA (Sports Network) - Remember way back, about two weeks ago, when a certain famous football coach said that Alabama could beat a couple of NFL teams?
The Ol' Ball Coach, Steve Spurrier, was obviously just blowing smoke at the Tide, but, then again, that's what he does.
Now, of course, Spurrier made his remarks before last Saturday when Alabama, playing at home, lost to Texas A&M.
There are always shockers in college football (not as many this year, so it seems) but the Aggies rolling the Tide in Tuscaloosa ranks right up there with the biggest upsets college football has seen in a long time.
How many of us (all of us?), had Alabama as a mortal lock to be playing in the national championship game yet again this year?
It wasn't if the Tide would make it, but who they would be playing. Oregon?
Kansas State?
Notre Dame?
The look on the face of Nick Saban was priceless. It had to make all of those Miami Dolphin fans smile. Remember what he did to them? But I digress.
Where does this leave Alabama? They, probably, won't lose again. They will likely have to play Georgia in the SEC title game.
But even if the Tide win the SEC championship again, where does that leave them at the end of the day? Likely on the outside looking in.
The one domino nobody expected to fall, fell.
So, we won't have a repeat of last year and we won't have to hear any coaches telling us that Alabama could win in the NFL.
Heck, maybe they could. They only lost one game, and it took an unbelievable effort by a really solid Aggie team to do it.
But losing one game, this late in the season, is the death knell for a team with national title hopes. That's one thing about college football that isn't quite fair. (There are others, but not today).
To think the New York Giants lost seven times in the regular season last year and won the Super Bowl makes one think of how nice it would be if big time college football had a real playoff system, with 16 teams involved.
Think Alabama might be in favor of such a thing right about now?
Now, think if you're one of the undefeated three: What were those teams thinking after they saw Alabama go down?
Well, if you're Oregon or Kansas State, it was probably let the party begin. Yes, the Ducks have a tougher road to stay undefeated, so their celebration had to be a little muted. They still have to play, and beat, Stanford and then travel to Corvallis for their rivalry game against a pretty tough Oregon State side.
But for the Wildcats, whose path to a shot at the Holy Grail is easier, the party was likely a humdinger. (Although Baylor might have something to say about all of this when they play Kansas State on Saturday).
So, that leaves Notre Dame. I'm sure there was no party in South Bend on Saturday night.
The impossible happened for the Fightin' Irish with Alabama losing, but Notre Dame can't celebrate until either Oregon or Kansas State (or both) also drop from the ranks of the unbeaten.
More importantly for the remaining three is that the Tide are out. There is no more big bully on the block (unless a bunch of weird things happen and Alabama somehow works its way back into things) that could have (would have) been a double-digit favorite against whomever it played in early January.
The field is wide open for the first time in a long time.
Hey, anybody want to talk today about how Oregon or Kansas State (maybe even the Fightin' Irish) could knock off the Cleveland Browns or the Carolina Panthers on a Sunday afternoon? I didn't think so.

|Chen Inequalities for Submanifolds of Real Space Forms with a Semi-Symmetric Non-Metric Connection
In this paper we prove Chen inequalities for submanifolds of real space forms endowed with a semi-symmetric non-metric connection, i.e., relations between the mean curvature associated with a semi-symmetric non-metric connection, scalar and sectional curvatures, Ricci curvatures and the sectional curvature of the ambient space. The equality cases are considered.

|Connections on a Parabolic Principal Bundle, II
In \emph{Connections on a parabolic principal bundle over a curve, I} we defined connections on a parabolic principal bundle. While connections on usual principal bundles are defined as splittings of the Atiyah exact sequence, it was noted in the above article that the Atiyah exact sequence does not generalize to the parabolic principal bundles. Here we show that a twisted version of the Atiyah exact sequence generalizes to the context of parabolic principal bundles. For usual principal bundles, giving a splitting of this twisted Atiyah exact sequence is equivalent to giving a splitting of the Atiyah exact sequence. Connections on a parabolic principal bundle can be defined using the generalization of the twisted Atiyah exact sequence.

|Linéarisation symplectique en dimension 2
In this paper the germ of neighborhood of a compact leaf in a Lagrangian foliation is symplectically classified when the compact leaf is $\bT^2$, the affine structure induced by the Lagrangian foliation on the leaf is complete, and the holonomy of $\bT^2$ in the foliation linearizes. The germ of neighborhood is classified by a function, depending on one transverse coordinate, this function is related to the affine structure of the nearly compact leaves.

|Characterizing continua by disconnection properties
We study Hausdorff continua in which every set of certain cardinality contains a subset which disconnects the space. We show that such continua are rim-finite. We give characterizations of this class among metric continua. As an application of our methods, we show that continua in which each countably infinite set disconnects are generalized graphs. This extends a result of Nadler for metric continua.

10 Good Reasons to Try YogaRegardless of which type you choose, yoga is an excellent way to stretch and strengthen your body, focus your mind and relax your spirit.
Simple Exercises to Make You LimberStretching is an easy thing you can do to improve your health, yet it's often the most neglected part of people's fitness regimens. Stretching can reduce your injury risk and help you become more limber, regardless of your age and physical condition.
Stretches for Your Lower LegsStretching can keep your lower legs limber and your joints pain free.
When Exercising, Don't Skip StretchingWhile it's true that stretching won't strengthen your heart or flatten your stomach, it can help you reach those goals more efficiently.

Human Epididymis Protein 4 (HE4) is used as an aid in monitoring recurrence of progressive disease in women with epithelial ovarian cancer. It should not be used for monitoring women with mucinous or germ cell ovarian cancer. Combining CA125 and HE4 provides a more accurate predictor of malignancy than either alone.1
HE4 should not be used for cancer screening.

Are you a young professional graduate or currently completing your Master's at a university of technology? Are you interested in technological design, and would you like to increase your opportunities on the employment market? Are you specifically looking for a career in industry or business? Then the two-year post-Master's technological designer's programs at TU/e may well be what you're looking for!
What does a designer's program involve?
The designer's programs are two-year salaried programs in the field of technological design. After gaining your Master's degree in a technological field and a stringent selection process, you can take a designer's program. The programs lead to a Professional Doctorate in Engineering degree.
During your program you will increase your technological knowledge, but you also learn how to apply it in practice. As well as that you work on your professional skills to increase your career opportunities.
Like a doctoral candidate, you will have the status of a TU/e employee. That means you will receive a salary and have excellent secondary conditions of employment.
What is the added value of a designer's program?
By offering these technological designer's programs, TU/e is responding to the needs of the high-tech industry in the Netherlands. They need experienced designers, who are able to design complex new products and processes. Designers who can think up innovative solutions.
With a Master's degree you will have a sound base of theoretical knowledge, but you still lack extensive practical experience. During your designer's program you will gain this practical experience in particular, which means you will be in great demand by potential employers.
What do the two years consist of?
The designer's programs consist of two parts. You first follow a year of advanced education to prepare you for a major design project lasting from eight to twelve months. Under the supervision of experienced professionals, you will take part in a large-scale, multidisciplinary project in a leading company. In recent years, PDEng graduates from TU/e have found challenging careers at (inter-)national organizations such as Philips, ASML, TNO, Shell, Ericsson and Akzo Nobel.
What programs are available?
TU/e offers the following designer's programs:
- Architectural Design Management Systems;
- Automotive Systems Design;
- Clinical Informatics;
- Design and Technology of Instrumentation;
- Information and Communication Technology;
- Logistics Management Systems;
- Mathematics for Industry;
- Process and Product Design;
- Smart Energy Buildings and Cities;
- Software Technology;
- User-System Interaction.
TU/e offers the following tracks:
- Healthcare Systems Design (track ICT).
3TU.School for Technological Design, Stan Ackermans Institute
The designer's programs are given under the banner of 3TU.School for Technological Design, Stan Ackermans Institute. The institute operates since mid-2006 and is a joint initiative of the three universities of technology in the Netherlands: Delft University of Technology, Eindhoven University of Technology and University of Twente.

Cure Hyperhidrosis
"Excessive Sweating Controlled My Life for Years Until I Learned How To Cure Hyperhidrosis Quickly, Naturally and Permanently In Less Than 2 Weeks All Thanks To This Book…"
You Too Can Learn How to Cure Hyperhidrosis in Less Than 2 Weeks…
My name is Kristina and started this website – Cure Hyperhidrosis – to help people like you who are suffering from excessive sweating.
I suffered from hyperhidrosis for most of my life. Specifically sweating of my hands and armpits! My excessive sweating of the palms (palmar hyperhidrosis) was so bad that I couldn't even drive because my hands would sweat so much!
When I did drive, I would have to wear gloves and turn the vents towards my armpits to dry them.
I would always have to wear dark colored clothes when I went out so people wouldn't see the sweat marks on my armpits. Hyperhidrosis was ruining my life!
What is Hyperhidrosis?
Hyperhidrosis, in simple terms, can be defined as overly active sweat glands stimulated by the sympathetic branch of the autonomic nervous system. This is the part of the nervous system, which is responsible for releasing perspiration throughout the body.
This is the body's natural method of cooling itself down during active periods (such as exercise) or exposure to warm conditions. A person with hyperhidrosis experiences uncontrolled sweating and/or blushing.
Those who suffer from this condition are faced with major challenges every day.
How Hyperhidrosis Can Affect Someones Life
During everyday life people quite often encounter others and are expected to interact socially. A handshake or brief conversation can seem relatively harmless, but in essence provides a firm first impression of another person.
Often people are judged based on a first impression. A cold, wet, clammy handshake can sometimes be perceived as a sign of insecurity or uneasiness. Excessive and uncontrollable facial sweating or blushing may make a person appear to be nervous or a bit suspicious. This can be very detrimental during a job interview or important meeting. Ultimately, this can even hinder one's career path or relationship status.
Individuals suffering from hyperhidrosis are often labelled antisocial or even reclusive, which is exactly what happened to me.
At one point my hyperhidrosis was so bad that I had to stop going to lunch meetings with clients because I was sweating too much! I often had multiple sets of clothing at work so I could change throughout the day. My co-workers all thought I was nuts!
During this period I also stopped dating and stayed at home a lot. I had to take two showers a day and applied antiperspirants multiple times a day. Nothing worked.
Stop Sweating and Start Living EBook
Finally one night while I was on the Internet, I came across a book called Stop Sweating and Start Living by Mike Ramsey.
I read so many positive testimonials on the Internet about people who suffered from excessive sweating and were able to significantly decrease, and then eliminate their symptoms in only 2 weeks time!
Figuring I had nothing to lose but some sweat, I purchased a copy and started doing the protocols in the book.
I was amazed! The protocols started working for me instantly, within 2 weeks almost all of my excessive sweating was gone! I can now say I live a happy and sweat free life!
Click Here to Cure Hyperhidrosis and to Learn More About Stop Sweating and Start Living
Honestly, if you are suffering from any type of hyperhidrosis then you need to get your hands on a copy of Stop Sweating and Start Living by Mike Ramsey. If it worked for me, then it can work for you! Relief is only minutes away!
To Your Success,
Kristina Harp

how does reading a book help?
- December 21, 2010 at 11:31 am
My main trick is this. LIVE with it. In foreign situations it can be difficult however, there are a few ways I deal. Go to the store at a less busy hour. Dont choose to get in line when the line's at it's worst, take an extra lap down aisle 5. lol Some people use music, others have a cloth to dry their hands. I've do them all.
At work and at home you're with Friends and Family, so they either already noticed, or haven't noticed at all. Either way they should at worst have a chuckle, then continue to love you anyways. (If they don't they are missing out on many more angles of life I promise you that). PLUS, So what if people know you sweat, there are times you don't sweat too. Sweating won't stop them from laughing at a funny joke you made, or appreciating your help working on next weeks presentation. They key is being able to function happily. The depression only makes things worse, the happiness makes feeling comfortable more frequent, and shows to peopl, "hey this thing isn't getting to me….no sweat." =)

text: The scene dissolves, and we see Will and Helen asleep on the sofa. Cute Guy God enters the room and goes to Joan's bedside. She, too, is sleeping. He studies her, his face lined with concern. He reaches out and touches her head, his fingers in her hair, his thumb drawing slowly across her forehead. It might be seen as a baptismal gesture, or one of anointing or healing the sick. Joan doesn't wake or stir. He continues looking at her, his face very serious. God walks out as Joan turns onto her left side and the camera withdraws through the window, drifting up toward the "University Medical Center" sign on the outside, its caduceus lit so brightly that it looks like a fat cross. The camera continues floating up to the stars, creating a perfect bookend to the pilot, which you'll recall opened with Joan in bed, hearing God's voice, and closed with her lying in bed, thinking about her extraordinary experiences with God, as the camera drifted across a starry sky. Now we spend the summer contemplating faith and doubt; thinking about consolation and desolation; and most importantly, checking Amazon constantly, trying -- probably in vain -- to pre-order the first season DVD. Hurry up, Sony. We need it, like, yesterday.

I ordered a 2Xl and it is huge. The suit feels like paper, and I have my reservations about it, but I have not tested it either. It does not appear to be as compactable as I was led to believe. I was planning on using it for Motorcycle trips, but it may end up in the truck.

Contemplation time... (Friday, May 09, 2014)
This is the perfect apre lunch tea. It has a formidable deep rich and complex flavor best appreciated just as it is. It is quite stimulating and always gives a good push into an afternoon of focused activity.
Unique Earthy flavor (Thursday, March 20, 2014)
A friend gave it to me because he didn't like the flavor. After a tries, it grew on me. However I must say its not for everyone. A teaspoon of brown sugar adds to the unique earthy flavor.
My Favorite Tea (Monday, October 07, 2013)
Pu'erh tea is pretty much the only tea I drink - I love the taste of this tea - and I really love the benefits I get from drinking it every day.
Yummy Pu'erh! (Wednesday, July 03, 2013)
My very favorite tea in the world is Pu'erh and I usually order bricks from China. I decided to try the Pu'erh Leaf Organic from Teas, Etc. and it more than holds its own. Deep, rich, complex flavor at a very reasonable price. Will definitely order again.
One of My Favorites (Tuesday, June 11, 2013)
Pu'erh is my favorite morning tea, both for the taste and the health benefits. This is probably my favorite pu'erh. It is full-bodied.
taste different (Saturday, May 18, 2013)
the taste of this tea is a aquired taste and smell and nothing to write home about but the best thing about this tea is does calm your stomache and it does bring down you bad cholestrol
not just me (Saturday, March 16, 2013)
Glad that I took the time to read other reviews because the smell is really not something you enjoy so therefore the taste is not so great..but I use a cup with a lid and add some sweetner and ginger and I am good to go..and the reason to do this is does reduce cholesterol must to my surprise. let face it the product is not in cheap...
Try citrus burst pu'erh (Wednesday, May 16, 2012)
I like pu'erh for the health benefits but I think it smells and tastes funny by itself. The citrus burst is one of my favorite though.
Ms. (Monday, August 29, 2011)
I credit the Pu'erh with helping to lower my cholesterol. I refuse to take the medicine and though I watch my diet, my cholesterol in the past has been too high. After diligently drinking this tea (along with some other natural methods) my numbers were within normal range last time. It has an earthy taste and at first made me think I was drinking "swamp water" for it has the color of the Okeefenokee, but after adding a bit of dried ginger root and some stevia I now find it very tasty. I drink it after lunch for I understand it also aids in digestion.
everyday (Sunday, July 03, 2011)
my grandson intoduced me to pu'erh and I brew this tea everyday with your organic ginger added...i love it
Great Pu'erh! (Monday, May 23, 2011)
Pu'erh is definitely it's own thing, but this one is really nice. Rich, woody, and earthy - great with a little chocolate.
GREAT PUEHR (Monday, May 02, 2011)
Unique (Saturday, March 12, 2011)
This tea has very unique flavor to it, but is still good for the morning pick me up.
Pu'erh Leaf Organic (Monday, March 07, 2011)
I tried this and really liked it. I was trying some other teas and have now ordered this again. I missed it. I like a little heavier tea sometimes and this works for me in the morning. Plus, I like the health benefits that it provides.
Pu'erh Leaf Organic Tea Type (Wednesday, September 08, 2010)
Very earthy and bold. It tastes way better than it smells.
Puerh (Monday, August 09, 2010)
this tea definitely needs a cultivated palate. I love it now, although it still smells and tastes a little like tree bark.
Very nice tea! (Saturday, July 03, 2010)
I found this tea to be very refreshing as an iced tea, I prefer the Pu'erh Tuo-Cha Tea, but found this to be very satisfying as well.
pu'erh loose leaf organic (Tuesday, May 11, 2010)
I wasn't crazy about this pu-erh. The flavors came out most in the first infusion. I was not impressed with second infusions, which I'm not used to in a pu-erh. The flavors were more on the dusty side than earthy and rich and with lots of notes from the fermentation. Had a dry sort of taste (not as in astringent, but as in dusty) that didn't wow me.
Pu'erh (Saturday, February 27, 2010)
This earthy tea may be an acquired taste but I love it. Very satisfying brew, good for multiple steeps. It's worth cultivating a taste for it if only for its reputed health benefits.
Pu'erh is awesome (Tuesday, February 09, 2010)
My acupuncturist suggested I drink Pu'erh tea because he said I have low kidney and liver "energy". He said that this tea will detoxify my blood, create more energy in those organs. I was expecting this tea to taste terrible but I was willing to drink it anyway for the health benefits. Actually--it's quite good-I add coconut milk and stevia (Truvia) and it's yummy. Best part of all--since I've been drinking this tea (not long at all) my kidney and liver pulses are steady and strong. I also like the alert but calm feeling I get after drinking it in the am. A much better buzz than coffee and no side effects! I will continue to drink this tea everyday. I love it.
the real thing (Saturday, February 06, 2010)
This tea is delicious, smooth, beautiful in the cup and very pure. We love it!
Great morning tea (Sunday, November 29, 2009)
I love the earthy tones and rich flavor, but not a flavor for everyone. This is a great tea to get me up and going in the morning.
Pu'erh Loose Leaf (Saturday, October 10, 2009)
I love this tea. I tried it for the first time last week and I loved the full body taste and smoothness. I also like that it is supposed to help lower cholesterol. We shall see. There was no after taste...as with all of your teas!
For my health (Monday, May 25, 2009)
I do not drink this tea for the taste - that's for sure! I actually do not enjoy this tea much at all. I do however, believe in the benefits of tea - this tea will help with cholesterol and digestion and I drink this tea for those benefits. I may try to add some lemon or honey or something to help with the taste - but I will definitely continue to buy this the Pu'erh tea
Love the flavor (Sunday, April 26, 2009)
This tea has the same taste as the birds nest Pu'erh and enjoy them both. I love the energy boost, and the flavor is wonderful mixed with peppermint.
Not my cup of tea (Monday, February 23, 2009)
When I started drinking loose leaf tea I started with lapsang souchong, so I wasn't scared away by the description of pu'er as having a strong, distinctive taste. I've used up all the pu'er I bought, so it wasn't unpalatable in any way, but it wasn't something that I enjoyed a great deal. It may have been very good pu'er tea though, for all I know.
Not a tea I enjoyed (Saturday, January 31, 2009)
I cannot say anything good about this tea, except, perhaps that the smell of it in the bag isn't bad. This tea reminds me of brewed lichen and bark. It is claimed to be good for digestion, and perhaps that is true. I have no idea, as I could not finish even one cup.
I am not sure I like this one. (Monday, December 15, 2008)
This tea doesn't seem to have a strong enough flavor to be interesting to me. Pleasant to drink.
