Car test in Germany ends in crash.
Mysterious Sports Car Crashes In Germany.
The autobahn in Germany, straight, long and with no speed limit, yes that is what I said, no speed limit, perhaps this is one of the reasons why many cars get tested there and how so many spy shots are produced, after all you would only need to sit on the bank and something is bound to come thrashing down the fast lane sooner or later.
It should come as no surprise that there was a serious crash, a sports car racing down the fast lane when the driver lost control of the car and hit the central reservation crash barrier which put it into a spin, the car finally came to stop and remarkably the driver was un-injured.
The wreckage displayed out there for all to see, was subjected to many photo's by passing car, yet no one really knew exactly what the car was, from the back it looked like a Porsche and from the front it look like a S-Type Jaguar, the rumour mill begun to churn.
I have it on good authority that the car was a Wiesmann GT prototype, see picture, the damage is estimated at around $250,000 plus another $20,000 for the two cars that hit the wreckage.

Take care of your Beauty.
Threading hair is an ancient method commonly practiced in Eastern countries, like Egypt and India, but is becoming very popular here in the West. Threading removes the entire hair follicle, lasting up to 6 weeks.
How Does it Work?
A cotton thread is pulled along unwanted hair in a twisting motion, to trap hair in a mini lasso, and lifts hair right out of the follicle.
• It's extremely sanitary. Nothing but the thread touches the skin, and it's thrown away after use.
• Great for people with 'trouble' brows. Threading has this amazing ability to be so concise in the hair that it removes. It's sworn by people who say they can never get their eyebrows even, despite tweezing, waxing or sugaring.
• No chemicals are applied on the skin. When people have certain circumstances, or are taking medicines that conflicts with waxing and sugaring, they may be able to turn to threading.
• It's very fast. Although every technician is different, usually it takes the threader five minutes flat, from start to finish.
• Temporary results can turn into permanent. Over time, frequent threading can cause the hair follicle to stop growing hair.
• Brow Experts is built on the idea that a beauty routine should be simple and inexpensive while producing gorgeous, quality results. We offer eyebrow threading — an ancient hair removal process that is fast, meticulous and minimally invasive — in a beautifully designed, yet sanitary space, where you can enjoy a relaxing reprieve from your daily routine and leave looking and feeling fabulous. Our expert threading professionals will leave your skin smooth and hair free, without breaking your bank. Please stop by and let us pamper you!

See, I feel the exact opposite of you, Zachwbrandon.
Entry-level Heroic dungeons are supposed to be closer to Wrath-level in difficulty. This will allow players to get their initial raid-ready gear fairly easily (and don't forget about rep faction loot!). After that, every tier of this expansion will come with a LFR version allowing for people to easily gain access to boss attempts. With the inclusion of LFR at every tier in conjunction with easier heroics, there really isn't a need for a full set of VP vendor gear. Once we get into the second tier of the expansion, when you're not having luck winning an item for a slot you can use your VP to augment its ilevel, allowing you to fill a needed gap.
Now, as far as random loot goes - it's always been a loot fairy. In my guild's DS Raid, we've been getting nothing but cloth and Paladin/Worlock/Priest tokens for weeks and no one needs them. Random will always be random. For LFR though, this new system they're introducing is superior. In theory, it allows a chance for every person in the raid to get a drop that is guaranteed to be for them. Currently a set number of pieces drop independent of the classes and rolls that are in attendance. Now, a number of people who exceed a roll threshold will win a piece that *is* equip-able.

Understanding Hay Fever: Diagnosis and Treatment
How Do I Know if I Have Hay Fever?
Your doctor may be able to diagnose hay fever based on your medical history, a physical exam, and your symptoms. Skin tests may be recommended to determine which substances trigger your allergies.
In a skin test, the doctor applies drops containing a small amount of allergy-causing substances called allergens to your arm or back. The procedure is painless and draws no blood. Developing a red, itchy bump in 15-20 minutes strongly suggests an allergy to that substance.
Understanding Hay Fever
Find out more about hay fever:
Some doctors use intradermal testing, where a small drop of the substance is placed under the skin with a needle and evaluated in 15-20 minutes.
A blood test may be used to check your blood for elevated levels of antibodies produced by your immune system against certain allergens. Each test has advantages and disadvantages.
What Are the Treatments for Hay Fever?
For hay fever, the best approach is to avoid allergens and other triggers (such as smoke and dust).
Mild cases of hay fever can usually be controlled with an over-the-counter (OTC) non-sedating antihistamine, such as cetirizine (Zyrtec), desloratadine (Clarinex), fexofenadine (Allegra), or loratadine (Alavert, Claritin). Older OTC antihistamines, such as chlorpheniramine and diphenhydramine, can cause drowsiness. This drowsiness can increase the risk of accidents when driving or operating other vehicles or tools.
Antihistamines are much more effective when taken daily during your allergy season rather than only on days when you have symptoms.
Phenylephrine and pseudoephedrine are decongestants that help unblock nasal passages and are also in many over-the-counter products. If you're taking medication for a heart condition, the antibiotic erythromycin, or the antifungal drug ketoconazole, be sure to check with your doctor before taking a decongestant or antihistamine to avoid drug interactions. For severe cases, your doctor may also suggest OTC fexofenadine or prescribe desloratadine, which is typically more effective with fewer side effects than loratadine for some patients with hay fever.
The FDA has approved the prescription antihistamine nasal sprays azelastine (Astelin, Astepro) and olopatadine (Patanase) to relieve the symptoms of seasonal allergic rhinitis. These may be used in patients age 5 and older.
Some over-the-counter nasal sprays may contain a decongestant or an antihistamine. These sprays help with pain and itching by opening clogged nasal passages and reducing inflammation. Decongestant nasal sprays should not be used for more than three days in a row as they can have a rebound effect and cause more severe nasal congestion.
Regular use of the nasal spray NasalCrom, available over-the-counter, prevents the lining of the nasal passages from reacting to the allergen affecting you. More severe allergies may benefit from nasal sprays containing steroids, which are strong anti-inflammatories and help with many allergy symptoms. These medications work locally with little to no effect on the rest of the body. If used consistently and regularly, nasal steroids are typically the most effective drug treatment. They are also effective maintenance drugs for hay fever and cause few side effects at the recommended doses. They include budesonide (Rhinocort), ciclesonide (Omnaris, Zetonna), fluticasone (Flonase), mometasone (Nasonex), triamcinalone (Nasocort), and others, and require a prescription. Two steroid sprays, Nasacort Allergy 24HR and Flonase Allergy Relief, are available over the counter. Also, Dymista is a nasal spray that combines a steroid and an antihistamine.

The Center for Internet and Society at Stanford Law School is a leader in the study of the law and policy around the Internet and other emerging technologies.
Copyright and Fair Use
A healthy copyright system must balance the need to provide strong economic incentives through exclusive rights with the need to protect important public interests like free speech and expression. Fair use is foundational to that balance. It's role is to prevent copyright from stifling the creativity it is supposed to foster, and from imposing other burdens that would inhibit rather than promote the creation and spread of knowledge and learning.
The Fair Use Project (FUP) was founded in 2006 to provide legal support to a range of projects designed to clarify, and extend, the boundaries of fair use in order to enhance creative freedom and protect important public rights. It is the only organization in the country dedicated specifically to providing free and comprehensive legal representation to authors, filmmakers, artists, musicians and other content creators who face unmerited copyright claims, or other improper restrictions on their expressive interests. The FUP has litigated important cases across the country, and in the Supreme Court of the United States, and worked with scores of filmmakers and other content creators to secure the unimpeded release of their work.

COLLIER COUNTY- School District of Collier County elementary schools are taking part in numerous activities this week to promote Celebrate Literacy Week, Florida! Thanks to a $5,000 special literacy grant, the Kiwanis Club of Marco Island will host a "We Both Read and Write" event at Manatee Elementary School (MES) at 6 p.m., tomorrow (Tuesday), at the school located at 1880 Manatee Road. All kindergarten thru 5th grade students and their parents are encouraged to attend.
Reading is Fundamental (RIF), the nation's largest children's literacy organization in a multiyear partnership with Macy's, has selected MES RIF programs sponsored by the Kiwanis Club of Marco Island to receive part of a $5,000 special literacy grant to host a Family Reading Celebration event for the families at MES. The Family Reading Celebration initiative is designed to empower families and communities to help children discover the joy of reading.
MES students will receive a "We Both Read and Write" book, and families will be writing a Family Book together. Parents have been signing up since before the holiday break to get ready for this special event. Each family decided what they wanted their family story to be about and was asked to bring in any special pictures or artifacts they want to include in their writing. Teachers will be on hand to help guide the families through the writing process and the school's production team will be publishing the books for MES families to enjoy for years to come.
Many thanks go out to the Kiwanis of Marco Island and Macy's for providing MES with the funds to make this possible for its families.
To learn more, please contact MES Reading Coach, Valerie Poling, or Media Specialist Mary Bryan at 377-7600.

One of the highlights of this weekend: a long, chilled-out afternoon at The Penrose with one of my very favorite people, Nadine Jolie (Dad and Baby showed up towards the end).
I've been sort of gazing longly at The Penrose since it opened a few weeks ago - it's right around the corner from me, and is a total anomaly on the UES, the land of Bud Light-soaked sports bars (not that that's a bad thing, but variety is nice).
It's all house-made everything and cool small plates and raw wood and bartenders with Irish accents and cocktails like homemade root beer with whiskey. I'm not even really a "cocktail" person - I generally stick to wine or beer - but the cocktails at The Penrose are unmissable.
Jolie and Baby and bottle
Pickle martinis and pickle oyster sliders and pickles and pickles
SPICY PICKLE MARTINI (a.k.a. My Favorite Drink In The World)
It's so good. It sounds so bad. But it's so good.
In a shaker, combine 3 oz good vodka (I like Ketel One), 3 tbsp pickle juice (important: use really top-quality pickle juice, like McClure's Spicy Pickle Juice), and ice. Strain into a chilled glass and garnish with a pickle spear.

The Life of John Ross Palmer The Hardest Working Man in the Art Business ® The John Palmer Art Gallery and Studio is Open Monday to Friday, 9:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. and By Appointment.
John Palmer with Blu John Palmer No. 52 John Palmer and Ryan Lindsay
In high school, John excelled at a number of activities including his high school football team, student government and scouting. John is extremely proud of earning his Eagle Scout badge by his senior year. Only an incredibly small percentage of scouts achieve the honor of Eagle Scout. As a method of coping after the unexpected death of his father, John gathered up the money he had, went to Michael's on Weslayan to buy paints, brushes and canvases, and used these tools and strokes on the canvas to heal. Painting allowed John Palmer to release the inner grief, frustration and pain after his father's untimely death. Ryan Lindsay and John PalmerJohn met attorney Ryan Lindsay one evening at Meteor in Houston in 2002. They became a couple on July 31 of the following year and have been together ever since. Their commitment ceremony was on October 13, 2007 at the Lovett Inn in Houston, and they were formally married in Toronto, Canada on July 4, 2008. John Palmer and Ryan Lindsay were married again at the White Porch Inn in Provincetown, Massachusetts on July 4, 2009. In February of 2009, Ryan Lindsay left a successful family law litigation practice to begin working full-time for John Palmer Art. The couple's enthusiasm for love, life and travel as well as their commitment to impeccable customer service is the lifeblood of the magical business of John Palmer Art. For their fourth wedding ceremony, Palmer and Lindsay were legally married in Washington, DC on the sunny afternoon of October 23, 2010. After the sixth largest state in the United States of America, New York, legalized gay marriage in mid-2011, John and Ryan rushed there to say their vows again under legal circumstances. They were married on the afternoon of Saturday, November 5, 2011 at the historic Stonewall Inn located at 53 Christopher Street in New York City. The Stonewall Inn and the riots there sparked the beginning of the modern-day global gay rights movement. On Tuesday, December 4, 2012, John and Ryan were legally married in the Town Hall of Greenwich, CT by Justice of the Peace Nick Edwards. It was a simple but incredibly sweet ceremony. The following day, the newly-married couple hosted a lavish reception in the posh Downstairs Lounge at New York City's Elmo Restaurant. Notable attendees included Parker King of Ralph Lauren, Johnny Cooper of the American Red Cross, Meghan Gearino with Manic Panic, Author Mark Brennan Rosenberg and legendary NYC entertainers The Chocolatina and Lavinia Drapes. John and Ryan were hugely honored to be married again in 2013 at the glamorous Hartwell House Inn & Conference Center in Ogunquit, Maine on October 25, 2013. The intensely private ceremony was attended by Innkeepers Charlene & Eric Taubert and presided over by Julie Draper of Portland. After their vows, Palmer and Lindsay enjoyed a picturesque day walking along the Marginal Way, devouring a lobster roll at Perkins Cove and then singing a few tunes at the Front Porch piano bar.

Alright Guys
I am very much new to this site, and I'm in a little bit of a pickle at the moment, and was wondering if anyone could help me out please??
At the moment I am in the process of setting up two websites. The first website is going to be a membership site, where people where people will pay me a fix amount per month.. However I am thinking of offering them a discount/trial period for the first 7 days then charge them the full amount per month. So for example $1 for the first 7 days, then $11 per month.. Needs to be done automatically.
The second website was going to be a type of deal/blog where I am selling informational products such as ebook/videos..
I know before I ask a lot of people will say PAYPAL to me, but I can not USE IT AT ALL.. So I need to know what else is out there that can do what I want.. I don't know if I need a merchant account, or just a payment proccessor..
I am not a proper business.. Just someone who wants to start an online business, if that make sense..
I am wondering if there is anything else out there that can do the above, plus also allow people to pay via paypal as well, so all the cards, and paypal if possible,,
Thanks in advance..

Check this out! Archaeologists unearthed the oldest known complete winemaking site early last year in southern Armenia. This article from the Epoch Times, quoted below, talking about the archaeological find has a great photo of the winemaking site, as does the article about the discovery written for National Geographic.
The unit comprises a raised pressing-platform made of packed clay, which is slanting toward a large jar. The researchers also found other large storage and fermentation jars. Preserved remains of grapes, grape seeds, and some vines with the fruit skin intact were found near the press.
"This is, so far, the oldest relatively complete wine production facility, with its press, fermentation vats, and storage jars in situ," lead author Hans Barnard said in a press release. Barnard is an archeologist from the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA), Cotsen Institute.
The artifacts unearthed from the site have been dated to approximately 4100 B.C.E, which puts them at around 6,100 years old! Through this discovery, we're able to learn even more incredible information about the ancient winemaking process and how winemaking has changed (evidence suggests the ancient vintners really did stomp the grapes with their feet!) in our modern times.
"For the first time, we have a complete archaeological picture of wine production dating back 6,100 years," Gregory Areshian, co-director of the excavation and assistant director of UCLA's Cotsen Institute of Archaeology, said in the press release.

Reader Comments (Page 1 of 1)
The funny thing is: I've NEVER used anything other than Passive. Even the old defensive stance was terrible, in my opinion. There were times when I'd wanted my pet to simply stand by as I fought. This happened to me primarily during soloing, but situations like this crop up during raiding too - pulling Staghelm in Firelands is an example I can think of. Likewise, there were many other similar little situations where defensive just wasn't good for a raiding situation.
Truth be told, I'm not sure any stance can offer the flexibility and level of control over your pet as Passive stance with macros for Pet attack, follow and move. If you want my opinion, any good hunter has their pet on Passive 100% of the time and knows how to properly micro manage it.
VioletArrows said...
That's only a good solution when the macros work. I'm trying my best to micro-manage, but when the targeting bugs thwart that, where do you go from there?
GOOD pet stances have options. If pet stances were well-designed, there would be a proper time to use Passive, Defensive and...whatever else we have. I liked the recently-departed Defensive. Most of the time it did exactly what I wanted. My pet attacked when I attacked, it attacked things that attacked me, when it's current target died it would pick a new one and best of all, it would STAY on it's target until I told it otherwise. It was my favorite stance!
Sometimes I'd want the pet to NOT attack unless I specifically told it. Nef was one situation, Maloriak too. In those situations I would use Passive. It was a good option sometimes. So I disagree. A good hunter knows how to use his tools...if those are any good. Defensive was such a tool. It was very useful. Now...not so much. I can deal, I did for years, but it's annoying.

@ Noyou -
I use the following macro on both my hunters, and it works like a charm:
/cast Hunter's Mark
I simply target my, erm, target, hit the macro, and it's marked and my faithful bundle of teeth and claws is on its merry way to wreak havoc. Granted, I haven't played my hunters a whole lot since the change, so it's entirely possible that I just haven't done enough to fully realize the impact of the stance changes. But I wanted to share what works for me.

Secrets Young Women Keep: Eating Disorders
- Tuesday, October 04, 2011
Angie tried every diet that exists. Then she began binging and throwing up. Soon she was on a weight-loss rollercoaster that caused her health problems and didn't keep her weight down for very long. Food controlled Angie. The solution to her problem with food had always been nearby; she'd just chosen to overlook it.
The Secret
Angie's Story
My weight problem started when I was about eight years old. A thin girl around my age told me to my face that I was fat, and I remember how badly she hurt my feelings.
Most of my family is overweight. Dealing with my weight problem was an ongoing struggle throughout my childhood and teen years. Even when I wasn't hungry I ate, but at the same time I was extremely eager to lose the weight. I've always been an emotional binge eater with an obsession for food. I was binging so much that both my mind and body didn't know what was going on. Food became my comfort. I ate when I was happy and when I was sad. Sometimes I ate so much that my stomach would ache in agony. At times I had to unbutton my pants, make my way to a couch, or lie down. Needless to say, two hours later I would be right back at it.
I was really depressed over my indulgence with food, which was often. I forced myself to go on a diet. I took the latest diet pills and made false promises to myself and to everyone else that I would stay on that particular diet and lose the weight for good. But after a few days, I always clung to the food and would get into the same vicious cycle. It was as if I were in an abusive relationship with food. I loved it, but I hated how it made me feel. Food controlled me, and I allowed it to do so. I overate all of the time, and this cycle went on for years.
It was pathetic. I was embarrassed, and I felt horrible about myself. I knew exactly how I would feel if I ate too much, but I did it anyway. I knew what it would do to my thighs, butt, waist, and hips—but I continued to overeat.
At one point, I read that Albert Einstein supposedly said, "Insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting a different result." I began to wonder if I were a crazy person with an eating problem. It was so out of control that I knew I had to make a lifestyle change—so I did.
It was extremely hard, but with some help I started to get my life under control. I started drinking plenty of water and exercising every day. Sometimes that exercise might be simply parking farther away from the school entrance so that I had a longer walk, but it counted.
And I began writing about my struggles and all of the other things in my life, which has helped me in getting my weight problem under control and in putting everything into perspective. When I saw my feelings written down on paper, it helped me realize what was really going on in my life. Writing has become my therapy, along with reading a lot of self-help books, and keeping the fridge and cabinets stocked with healthy food. I've always enjoyed snacking a lot, but now I make sure I eat healthy snacks including fruits, nuts, vegetables, yogurt, and low-cal and low-fat snacks.
I'm maintaining a healthy weight. I feel better physically and mentally. It wasn't an easy fix, because there is not an easy fix. And I don't think of this as a diet; I think of it as the way I should have always been eating. Do I ever sometimes eat something really calorie-laden? Rarely, but I do. Then I go right back to eating properly. I tell my story because many other young women allow food to control their lives. If food is controlling your life, I encourage you to make a change. Make a change and make your life better.

Cheerleader with Spina Bifida Shows Team Spirit from Her Wheelchair
May 03, 2013
Sequoia High School in Redwood, CA has a group of cheerleaders that certainly gets the fans' attention, thanks in part to an addition to the team that exemplifies school spirit. Angel Gonzalez-Prado is the newest team member. What's different about Angel is she has spina bifida and cheers from her wheelchair.
There has never been a cheerleader in a wheelchair at Sequoia High School, and the United Spirit Association, which handles the competitions at the state and national level, had never seen one either. Angel didn't let that stop her from trying out–and making–the squad this year.
Angel has spina bifida, a birth defect in which the spine doesn't form properly around the spinal cord. She has had more than 15 surgeries to correct the defect, which has left her legs paralyzed. Despite her disability, Angel does all of the upper body and arm movements right along with the squad.
The team's coach, Stacey Morell, was approached by one of Angel's friends at the beginning of the year. She was excited to have Angel audition, and noted her bubbly and outgoing personality right off the bat. Morell had to contact the United Spirit Association to find out how to accommodate Angel for competitions, and she was shocked to learn that there had never been a cheerleader in a wheelchair previously.
The association contacted two other national cheerleading associations, and together the three developed rules for competition based on existing rules for cheerleaders with leg braces. For example, the chair must be padded and stationary during competitions for safety reasons.
"I'm still learning how to modify for Angel," Morell said, "but I want everyone to experience cheerleading. Anyone who has a desire should go for it."
Angel's spina bifida surgeon at Stanford's Lucile Packard Children's Hospital, Dr. Lawrence Rinsky agreed. "The best rehab for her has been going out for cheer," he said. "She's such an inspired, motivated young woman."
Her fan base has grown exponentially, thanks in part to her cousins posting photos of her on social media sites. In addition to cheerleading, Angel stays busy with Girl Scouts, a club for young entrepreneurs and a math-tutoring program at Stanford. She hasn't gotten used to the attention cheerleading has brought her.
"It's nerve-racking when everyone's staring at you," she said. "They say, 'There's a girl in a wheelchair!' There are a lot of big eyes and shocked faces."
Angel is becoming a terrific role model. This year the squad participated in Redwood's 4th of July parade, and a little girl in a wheelchair spotted her and pointed her out to others in the crowd. Each year, the girls on the team have to list who they most respect in a written survey used to choose the cheer captains.
"This year," Morell said, "a lot of the girls wrote 'Angel.'"

The last time I did a box braid hairstyle was when Bunny's hair was almost a foot shorter, so it's been a really long time!
Bunny saw a little girl with microbraids at the gym and she's been wanting them for a while now!
She's super excited about them and told me to tell you guys that there will be lots and lots of micro braid hairstyles coming soon!
I FINALLY finished!!!
For braiding the hair you'll need:
Products I used:
As always, I started with clean, detangled, stretched hair.
So darn pruty!
The first thing I did was thoroughly wash Bunny's hair with Original Spout Shampoo, deep conditioned (I can't quite remember what I used :/), applied Original Sprout Leave In Conditioner and left her hair to stretch with Ghana braids.
I let her hair stretch for a couple of days before I attempted her mini braids.
I took down all of the thread, added a generous amount of Darcys Botanicals Daily Leave In Conditioner, added a little coconut oil on top of that and began the actual braiding process.
I parted on a slight angle...
..and then changed it into braids!
I parted on a slant, and then pitched/grabbed smaller sections out and braided it to the end.
Actually, I did the parting the same way that I did her mini two strand twists a couple of months ago!
However, when I got towards the front, I switched over to actual "box" parts so her braids would lay a little more naturally.
We're really, really hoping to get at least two months out of them. I may take them down for the fourth of July so she can rock a 'fro, but we'll see!
Hope you enjoyed!

As I get more knowledgeable about nutrition in terms of athletics and performance the more I'm turning to simple plant foods and less processed foods to maximize the benefits of my hard day's work on the mats. That being said I think there is still a good place for supplements in the daily training regiment. I think what is so helpful is that once you're finished working out for the day, the anabolic window is really only open for 30-60 minutes prior to training so it's so great to have something there on the spot to make sure your getting nutrition in while your body needs it most. The nice guys over at C12 asked me to try out and review their recovery supplement to see what I though about it.
C12 Recovery is 4:1 powdered mix ratio of carbohydrate to protein that if taken immediately after working out will take advantage of the bodies anabolic window. Your muscle's can rapidly absorb C12 before your liver or fat cells can and will reduce muscle soreness. We all talk about recovery being one of the most important factors in high quality training and supplementation can be a big factor in assisting this.
I usually will teach 4 hours then eat and finish the day by training 4 more hours. This type of schedule can be very taxing on my body so I was interested to test out C12 to see if it could help me. After a few times of drinking the supplement I started to notice it, but in a really interesting way. It wasn't like I got this strange unnatural spike in energy or anything like that but I just felt refueled, strong again. It was really great to have this opportunity to take something in between training and getting home and eating.
One of my biggest obstacles in being as healthy as possible is my post training hunger. I would be so tired and hungry from the days work out that the thought of walking to the market then home and preparing an entire meal seemed too tall of an order so I would sometime's just pick up something on my way home, usually not the best idea for an athlete looking to preform his best. After taking C12 it would give me just enough nutrition that I could easily take on making a home cooked meal.
When I first looked at the serving size I was a little taken back, about 4-6 scoops, thinking once I add water this will be pretty chalky and difficult to chug down but it was surprisingly smooth and the chocolate flavor (they use real organic cocoa and palm sugar) wasn't overly sweet. As for serving's it comes out to about $3.28 per serving in the 1.2 lbs. container, not too bad considering the use all organic, non-GMO ingredients (Just 5 vegan ingredients) and is produced here in the USA makes this even more attractive.
I really like C12, I know that because the second the last round of sparring was over I would run to my gym bag and start slurping down this awesome mix, it helped and its a much "cleaner" option than most of those out there on the market today. I hope you guys try them out, they're a small company trying to put out good stuff out there. Be sure to follow them on Twitter to see keep up to date on news and product releases!

Why do people tell me what to do?
You have to do this
You're not allowed to do that
Censor what you say
You may offend someone somewhere
Personally, I don't care if I do
Act the same as the norm
Normal is a boring state to be in
I pride myself in being different
Saying yes when everyone says no
Turning right instead of left
Looking up when I am supposed to look down
Who makes the rules people live by?
One time I would like to meet "they"
Even education tried to ruin me
Imagination was wrong
They said that Snow White wasn't real
I think that she was real in her time
We are part of her fairy tales
I will never change my feelings
I will never accept whatever they say
I will take their reality
Discard it
Replace it with my own
I will make my own choices
I will have my own own thoughts
If that upsets them I have just one thing to say
You can just shove it!

Eating Out – Locanda Ottoemezzo Kensington
Since we moved to Kensington five years ago, we have regularly been going to the nearby Italian restaurant Locanda Ottoemezzo. It's a favorite of ours to go for special dinners or to just enjoy a consistently great meal.
Locanda Ottoemezzo is located on the quiet Thackeray Street, a couple of blocks away from the busy retail hub of High Street Kensington and around the corner from the Whole Foods Market.
The restaurant is spread across two floors. The more dimly lit downstairs area has some quiet corners to enjoy a romantic meal.
For starters, my husband ordered pan fried scallops on top of a puree of celeriac and vanilla and topped with tomatoes confit and purple potatoes crisps. I had a spinach salad with goat cheese, a cranberry sauce and delicious toasted walnuts. This wasn't my favorite starter though, to be honest.
For my main, however, I went with my favorite dish which is always a winner – but should probably be shared with at least one other person as it's a lot to take on alone! I ordered the risotto with porcini mushrooms, butter and thyme, which is served in a Parmesan rind (22/24 months).
I tend to add a lot of Parmesan in any of my risotto or pasta dishes, so I responded with a "very" when the waiter asked how "cheesy" I would like my risotto to be, so he feverishly scraped Parmesan off the sides as he scooped out my risotto bit by bit.
Everyone at the other tables, us included, always stops to watch whenever they serve the risotto.
And there's the finished plate, with an extra few scrapes on Parmesan on top, a deliciously creamy, very filling plate. I've had the asparagus risotto here which they often have during the spring and summer which is equally delicious. I highly recommend the risotto, along with many of the entrees, which are consistently good, especially the beef fillet which I've ordered many times. They also often have a delicious specialty pasta dishes which we've enjoyed as well. Overall, it's a place where you can't go wrong with a lovely atmosphere that's great for when we're with friends or would like to enjoy a romantic meal for two.
Locanda Ottoemezzo is located at 2-4 Thackeray Street, W8 5ET. Visit their website to view the latest menu or call 020 7937 2200 to make a reservation.

High-stakes fight in court over soybeansBy MARK SHERMAN
THE Associated Press | February 19,2013AP FILE PHOTO
This photo shows a farmer holding Monsantos Roundup Ready Soy Bean seeds at his family farm in Bunceton, Mo.WASHINGTON Vernon Hugh Bowman seems comfortable with the old way of doing things, right down to the rotary-dial telephone he said he was using in a conference call with reporters.
But the 75-year-old Indiana farmer figured out a way to benefit from a high-technology product, soybeans that are resistant to weed-killers, without always paying the high price that such genetically engineered seeds typically bring. In so doing, he ignited a legal fight with seed-giant Monsanto Co. that has now come before the Supreme Court, with argument taking place today.
The court case poses the question of whether Bowmans actions violated the patent rights held by Monsanto, which developed soybean and other seeds that survive when farmers spray their fields with the companys Roundup brand weed-killer. The seeds dominate American agriculture, including in Indiana where more than 90 percent of soybeans are Roundup Ready.
Monsanto has attracted a bushel of researchers, universities and other agribusiness concerns to its side because they fear a decision in favor of Bowman would leave their own technological innovations open to poaching. The companys allies even include a company that is embroiled in a separate legal battle with Monsanto over one of the patents at issue in the Bowman case.
The Obama administration also backs Monsanto, having earlier urged the court to stay out of the case because of the potential for far-reaching implications for patents involving DNA molecules, nanotechnologies and other self-replicating technologies.
Monsantos opponents argue that the company has tried to use patent law to control the supply of seeds for soybeans, corn, cotton, canola, sugar beets and alfalfa. The result has been a dramatic rise in seed prices and reduced options for farmers, according to the Center for Food Safety. The group opposes the spread of genetically engineered crops and says their benefits have been grossly overstated.
It has become extremely difficult for farmers to find high-quality conventional seeds, said Bill Freese, the centers science policy analyst.
Consumer groups and organic food producers have fought Monsanto over genetically engineered farm and food issues in several settings. They lost a campaign in California last year to require labels on most genetically engineered processed foods and produce. Monsanto and other food and chemical companies spent more than $40 million to defeat the ballot measure.
Monsanto says the success of its seeds are proof of their value. By and large, farmers appreciate what we do, David Snively, Monsantos top lawyer, said in an interview with The Associated Press.
Herbicide-resistant soybean seeds first hit the market in 1996. To protect its investment in their development, Monsanto has a policy that prohibits farmers from saving or reusing the seeds once the crop is grown. Farmers must buy new seeds every year.
Like almost every other farmer in Indiana, Bowman used the patented seeds for his main crop. But for a risky, late season crop on his 300 acres in Sandborn, about 100 miles southwest of Indianapolis, Bowman said, I wanted a cheap source of seed.
He couldnt reuse his own beans or buy seeds from other farmers who had similar agreements with Monsanto and other companies licensed to sell genetically engineered seeds. And dealers he used to buy cheap seed from no longer carry the unmodified seeds.
So Bowman found what looked like a loophole and went to a grain elevator that held soybeans it typically sells for feed, milling and other uses, but not as seed.
Bowman reasoned that most of those soybeans also would be resistant to weed killers, as they initially came from herbicide-resistant seeds, too. He was right, and he repeated the practice over eight years.
He didnt try to keep it a secret from Monsanto and in October 2007, the company sued him for violating its patent. Bowmans is one of 146 lawsuits Monsanto has filed since 1996 claiming unauthorized use of its Roundup Ready seeds, Snively said.
A federal court in Indiana sided with Monsanto and awarded the company $84,456 for Bowmans unlicensed use of Monsantos technology. The federal appeals court in Washington that handles all appeals in patent cases, upheld the award. The appeals court said that farmers may never replant Roundup Ready seeds without running afoul of Monsantos patents.MORE IN National / World BusinessWASHINGTON Strong stock market gains and higher home prices boosted Americans net worth in the...
