Virtual Credit Card? What To Look Out For…
Probably the most notable activities taking place online today is selling and buying which is called e-commerce. Plenty of internet users are searching for items that will resolve their problem or perhaps enable them to understand more about a subject or demanding issue.
It is nevertheless noticed that many of these users have difficulties getting credit cards for his or her transactions and a few that have tend to be afraid of making use of it online due to the fear of losing their own cards to on-line hackers and scammers.
To resolve this issue, business application developers created the Virtual Credit Card (VCC).
Exactly what is a Virtual Credit Card (VCC)?
It's a non-plastic pre-paid credit/debit card intended for transactions. The main distinction between a normal credit card and vcc is you can't see or feel a virtual card i.e. it's not physical in contrast to the plastic card which you'll see and touch. Just like the regular credit card, it might be a Master or Visa Card with the details of an ordinary card. Additionally, it offers the regular credit card numbers, CVV/CVV2 Numbers and also Expiry Date.
You can use them in standard online transactions as well as for verifications online on a website including Amazon, eBay, AlertPay, Facebook and so on. There aren't any limitations to the type of transactions that may be made with a VCC. There is no special method of obtaining the cards. There are lots of internet sites online selling them. Many of them accept payment for your cards via Paypal and Liberty Reserve. You just need to place an order and then pay for the equivalent amount for that card denomination you require.
Even though VCCs have a great deal of advantages, some websites may possibly request you to scan and send VCC you used in transaction on their website to verify your own name on the virtual credit card.
Enjoy online shopping using your VCC.
The Best Place to Get an Auto Loan
I have spent the past three or four days cruising around the internet looking for a good place to give me an auto loan, even though I sort of have bad credit. I mostly have problems because I like girls or because I liked this girl who really liked to party. She was all sorts of fun, but she was every night with the party and it never came out of her pocket. I can not say I blame her, if I could get girls to give me all the stuff I want I would be good with it. https://valleyautoloan.com/bad-credit-auto-refinance/ is what I am looking at now, probably the sort of thing that I am looking at under the circumstances.

Kern gave the No. 4 Owls another dose of motivation Friday night when he tied the state record for touchdown passes in a season early in the first quarter and had a hand in nine touchdowns as the Owls set a Class 4A playoff record for most points by a winning team with a 62-28 victory over Sherwood.
"It was an amazing feeling," Kern said of the record, "just the atmosphere with all my friends coming up and congratulating me and we just know that we're not even close to finishing this and I'm just going to use this as motivation for the rest of the season."
The Owls, who will be seeded no worse than second among the four state semifinalists, will host a game Friday night with the winner advancing to the state championship game Nov. 30 at M&T Bank Stadium.
Kern, who was 13-for-19 for 308 yards passing, wasted no time in setting the tone, hitting Bradley Metcalf with an 80-yard touchdown strike on the first play from scrimmage. His next touchdown pass — a 4-yarder to Garrett Bean — broke the record and Kern kept adding to it, hitting Metcalf again, Darius Clifton and Bean again before the half.
Especially late in the game, the Owls used their running game to set up their passes and Dan Johnson ran 19 times for 226 yards. Although he didn't score a touchdown, he set up several of them, including running for 52 yards in the 70-yard drive that set up an early third-quarter touchdown pass by Kern to Bean.
"Sherwood thought we were going to pass 90 percent of the time," Kern said. "Having a running back as good as Dan and no one really notices it, because we don't run the ball as much, but Dan would be the best running back on any team we've played. Just having him in the backfield with me is such a confidence booster."
Johnson also doubles as a linebacker on a stellar Owls defense that limited the Warriors (9-3) to just 4 yards of offense in the fourth quarter. He had two of five Owls interceptions, while C.J. Nichols also had two and John Morrissey had another.
The Owls, who scored 60 or more points for the fifth time in school history, took a 33-0 lead with 4:59 left in the first half when Kern hit Clifton with an 85-yard touchdown pass.
The Warriors finally broke through on quarterback Jordan Larsen's 4-yard touchdown run. The Warriors scored 21 points in the final 15 minutes.
Metcalf led the receivers with five catches for 148 yards and three touchdowns. Clifton had three catches for 130 yards and one touchdown. Bean had four receptions for 22 yards and two touchdowns.
W—Metcalf 80 pass from Kern (Cohen kick)
W—Bean 4 pass from Kern (Cohen kick)
W—Metcalf 19 pass from Kern (kick failed)
W—Kern 25 run (Cohen kick)

Familiar with the catchphrase "Where's the beef?" It was first used in a hugely successful 1984 ad campaign for Wendy's, the fast-food chain, and it tickled the nation's collective funny bone. Thirty years later, consumers are far more likely to ask "Where's the beef from?" According to a recent Consumer Reports survey on food labels, 88% believe, for example, that a humanely raised claim on meat packaging means the animals were humanely slaughtered -- the reality is far more complicated.

Just a season ago it would have been crazy to think Greg Oden would be on a court playing, it would have been even crazier to think he'd be starting.
Well, with LeBron James out with a broken nose, the Miami Heat inserted the former number one pick into the starting lineup.
This was Oden's first start since December 2009 when he was on the Portland Trail Blazers.
The Heat took on the Derrick Rose-less Bulls 93-79 in Miami.
Oden played just 13 minutes, tallying 5 points and 5 rebounds.
Oden, 26, has played in 10 games to this point, averaging 2.8 points and 2.2 rebounds in 7.8 minutes.
Since being the number one overall pick by the Blazers in 2007, Oden has played in just 92 games, averaging 8.7 points, 6.8 rebounds, and 1.3 blocks.

This documentary, in the form of a Google Earth KML file, traces Roald Amundsen's successful 1910-1911 South Pole Expedition. With this interactive map, within the limits of modern satellite technology, you can digitally walk where few men have ever gone and few men ever succeeded.
Click here to obtain the Google Earth file
Unfortunately, Google Map cannot handle an expedition to the South Pole, so I had to use Google Earth in order to achieve this map. However, even Google Earth has its limitations in regard to the South Pole. For example, its default orientation faces North, so you will need to redirect it facing South once it opens. And, I am not sure if the detail south of minus 87 degrees is accurate considering the star burst effect in Google Earth at the center of Antarctica. BTW, when comparing this map to other maps of this expedition, the mountain ranges in hand drawn maps may disorient you because they don't show all the mountains shown in a Google satellite image.
The locations are determined by the following:
- Project Guttenberg's eBook, The South Pole, Volumes 1 and 2, by Roald Amundsen
- Cool Antarctica's telegraphic account of Roald Amundsen's South Pole expedition
Location: Slaughter of the dogs
Project Gutenberg's The South Pole, Volumes 1 and 2, by Roald Amundsen
Chapter 10: - "Our plan was to take all the forty-two up to the plateau; there twenty-four of them were to be slaughtered, and the journey continued with three sledges and eighteen dogs. Of these last eighteen, it would be necessary, in our opinion, to slaughter six in order to bring the other twelve back to this point. As the number of dogs grew less, the sledges would become lighter and lighter, and when the time came for reducing their number to twelve, we should only have two sledges left. This time again our calculations came out approximately right; it was only in reckoning the number of days that we made a little mistake -- we took eight days less than the time allowed.

I wish the term "block cap" would just go away already, as it is very misleading. You need 102.4% total coverage from dodge, parry and block. Mastery gives the block, and in a good amount, which is one of the reasons that this stat is so attractive.
DO NOT be afraid to take up some dps-ish pieces. Especially on the weapon. I don't know why blizzard feels the need to make high end tanking weapons so scarce, but if you see a nice 1-hander with expertise/hit on it...roll for it
Pay attention to set bonuses. Many of us paladins found that our 4 piece t12 was useless....if you're already at 102.4%....what good is extra that doesn't get used? So we took the two piece set an picked up stronger-stat off pieces. T13 4pc is pretty legit tho...and almost a requirement for Madness and certainly many heroic encounters.
Remember protadins. You aren't just picking up adds and bosses- you are the meat shield for your group!

"The first time we performed Sunday Bloody Sunday live, I couldn't speak the whole day leading up to performance.
It was in Belfast, I was in the heart of the troubles in Northern Ireland. It's one thing to write a song called Sunday Bloody Sunday about the troubles in Northern Ireland, it's another thing to play it. I walked to the microphone, I didn't know what I was going to say… In fact, what I said to them was: If you don't like this song, we will never play it again. Ever."- Bono [x]

one of my favourite songs omg

We all have pet peeves, right? So that means we all have a few pet peeves when it comes to sneakers and the sneaker culture. Come on, you can think of at least one pet peeve. Well, to make things easier, we added a few examples after the jump that might be a pet peeve in your book. However, we just wanted to get the ball rolling, so PLEASE feel free to share your pet peeves with everyone. If you use twitter, randomly tweet throughout the day the funniest pet peeves from this post by using #SneakerPetPeeves on twitter.
1.) Campouts
You didn't always have to sleep outside for a pair of limited edition kicks, but nowadays this process is expected with all super limited sneaker releases.
2.) Fat Joe Sneaker Lick
If you don't like it, blame it on Fat Joe. It's funny how licking sneakers became the "cool thing" to do with deadstock/brand new (hopefully, never worn) sneakers.
3.) The Reseller
You may not like them, but let's be honest, you NEED them. Maybe not everyone, but resellers come in handy at times. It's just a hard pill to swallow knowing she/he paid $150 but their "Buy It Now" price is $700 plus free shipping. Ouch!
4.) The First Commenter that says "1st!"
We've all seen this before. Why is it that you have to let everyone know that you're first? Are you that slow? What's really sad is they usually don't have anything else to say except, "1st!".
5.) Deadstock Sneakers
Is it really that serious? Well, some people just don't like deadstock sneakers for one reason or another. Sneakers are meant to be worn…true. However, who are you tell the next person what to do with their kicks? Nonetheless, this very well might be one of your sneaker pet peeves.
6.) Fakes
Fake sneakers are without a doubt everyone's #1 sneaker pet peeve.
7.) Mark Ups
We all have a local shop that marks up highly sought after releases. Some shops even jack up the prices on regular non-hype releases. Shame on you.
8.) Celebrity Sneakerheads
For some reason, celebrity sneakerheads catch a lot of heat from sneakerheads and sneaker lovers. Maybe it's because they get free kicks, like to brag, or give themselves titles that rub you the wrong way.
9.) Sneakers & Skinny Jeans
Remember, it's all about what YOU like, but some people hate sneakers & skinny jeans. With that said, if the shoe pants fit, just make sure your comfy.
10.) The Hypebeast
They are known for following the hype, even if they don't like the sneaker. They usually buy into the hype hoping it will make them cool. If you want to know how to be a hypebeast, watch the video and take notes.
Ok, now tell us your sneaker pet peeves below.

I hate when I see people wearing black shoes with white socks…. smh
Posts that have soooo many comments that I don't have the energy to read them all!
Punks who comment on posts who don't go through and read all the other comments!
ULTIMATE PEEVE – Dudes who rock low cut kicks (ex. III's, VI's) with shorts and HIGH SOCKS showing…
That ish makes you look like one of the little rascals…knock it off!
I hate when people dont understand the love for kicks lol i hate when people intentionally step on my shoes to be funny.. Hate when people ask me where did i get something from sometimes i helppeople out but most of the time i just ignore em…..moms said dont talk to wanna be's…. Hate when all my pair of Pippens creased after like 3 times of rocking em all in the same spot
wow you guys have pretty much summed it up! i hate fakes, resellers, dumb ass shoe store employees, jacked up kicks, the list goes on forever and its all already been said. What up to all my dudes on the community! thanks for takin me in since im new to it. if ya not on it, ya missin out! @keith, whats up man, im around nashville too and know exactly what ur talkin about. hit me up on the community!
I cant stand people who bug me about "why do you spend so much money on sneakers it could be spent better elsewhere" When I'n actuality I have nothing else to spend my money on, If I did it would have been taken care of. Then they get mad and say "you don't have bills to pay, thats your parents money dude!"
So? Thats my business or maybe I'm wrong.
I hate when people rearrange the laces on their kicks….like do some nasty trendy shit to them.
I have a problem when people have on a new release (oreo 6′s) and they're wearing them in the rain or they already got scuffed. I have kicks from a year ago that still look brand new watdafuxup with these kids.
I do spend my parents money but It's definitely an investment. I'm the kind of kid who never has to go back to school shopping. <—not bragging I just take care of my shit.
I( hate when people try to challenge me saying ohh i got more than you or imma catch up……. you just told me you had like 12 pair. The biggest thing of all i hate when people slam, pull, squish, basically touch my shoe box
I hate when ur niggas come over the house and they picking up ur sneakers and start asking a lot of dumb ass ?s about them or when dudes buy sneakers and they take a pic on they cell phone and send it 2 everybody
#1 People who wear fakes and strongly argue that they are real.
#2 People who lie about their collection and try to say they got 2 pair of each release.
A man should be able to sleep at a woman's house and figure out if the jeans that are laying on the floor are his, with out checking the inside(please guys stop wearing skinnies, let your ankles and calves breath).
I work at a shoe store and I hate people who over analyze a shoe ( its cool to check them out but do not pull out your CSI kit, I will not sell a person a jacked shoe I am very honest when it comes to that.)
Not being able to hook up sneakers properly with a fresh tee, polo,or hoody,that sets the kicks off right, just wearing your kicks with anything, such as having on some red and black kicks and rocking a fresh shirt that is green and blue ( SMH).
Somebody challeneging my stash when they are not a thought process for me.
Dudes buying shoes that are to small everybody cannot were a 9.5.
My self for writting these hateful comments but i need to this off my chest.
rich kids who buy fake sneakers
wow, whoever selling them patta's i hate em for it!!! that's my size but I ain't got a G to grip em and if I did, I wouldn't…That said, though I hate re-seller's, I think we are bias in that, under certain circumstances, I'm sure alot of us would sell our shoes and try to get a decent price for them…If your OG 4 Black Cement's went for a ridiculous price but someone was willing to buy em, would u sell em for cheap…?naww son. All in all, I feel like a G for a recent release is blasphemy but w.e. Thanks for the drop, G-Roc..
When customers walk into my shop with fakes 1s on and say mine are too high at regular suggested retail. So FAKES have to be number 1 on my pet peeve list.
-Deadstocking forever (Wear your shoes)
-Camping out for more than one night (Yeezy's a week+ is crazy)
-Wearing shoes the same day they release
-Piss yellow bottoms
-Hype Beasts
-Youtube videos galore explaining shoes in detail
-Trading used shoes
-All white shoes except low cut AF1′s
-Buying shoes that aren't your size (Franalations with size 12 Titaniums and he wears size 6) Had to mention it cause 12 is my size
-Pushing back release dates
Way too many to name
i hate when people rock shoes and tuck their jeans inside the tongue
Fakes and Celebrity Sneakerheads. To me its like I have no respect for either 1). Folk who buy and wear fakes are just as fake as the shoe!! Sometimes they don't know they're wearing fakes other times they do and don't care and that's what's messin' up the game. 2). Celebrities have money! Of course they can buy kicks and like it said they get FREE kicks sometimes. The victory is much more sweeter if you've saved up for weeks (sometimes months) and buy a fresh pair of kicks. Celebrities can wear they're's out and go buy a new pair on the SPOT!!
Jean shorts and kicks
fakes and hypebeasts for me
hahahahahahaha so true!
hypebeast video was funny
i hate win active atheletes bring the price up.like oreos after release was 300 and they dont have the sugestive price tag on the side.
flight club.
when you see the kicks u been lookin for, for the best price, but not in your size.
I hate when people complain about retros but do not have the OGs.
I was at Wish and someone ask Jason Mayden what's up wit the quality of retros? He said the materials of today are much better than back in the day. Someone else ask why is the shape different. Jason said because of the supply and demand. JB shares it's factories with other companies and back then they use to let the shoes rest for a couple of days before boxing them up. Now with the demand of jordans today, JB do not have the time to let em rest. Personally I love my varsity reds suede wayy better than my infrafeds nubuck. That's just my opionion though.
Or I hate it when people ask me why did I buy those kicks for if they wasn't my size.
First off I would only do that for limited releases and not GR
Secondly, I got money period worry about your own fianances.
^ damn my bad didn't mean to sound grumpy lol
Groc you a fool for that video…lol…good stuff
i hate when people try to stunt on you with their fusions. i was wearing hare 7s and dude with the fusion 9′s was like dog i shit on them hoes i was like wtf ?! and everybody agrred with him. all of a sudden every bodys a sneakerhead. i hate fusion and hybrid hypebeast. cuz trust me. everybody only likes em until the next release
cant stand wen im about to cop sum kicks and some ignoranus discombobulates the shit out of one of them. wtf, dont touch my fucking sneakers, did i ask u to take them shits out the box and do watever the fuck u was doing??!? ..out the store
1) When someone that you know who works in a sneaker store asks you if your getting a certain pair of sneakers when they release, knowing damn well they can't hold you a pair because they're getting them -_-
2) Sneaker hustlers, (ppl who buy multiple pairs of a new release then sell them and hike up prices to make a huge profit) -_–
3) Skinny/Fitted jean haters…Baggy clothes just isn't the look anymore…
4) When everyone wears the new release to the party/event that weekend..they all look real lame.
can't think of anything else at the moment lol
yeah, i used to be big on the nike air thing too but after J. Mayden explained the reason, i had to respect JB for their decision.
* hate the fact that no one wants to wear non-nike/non-jb products.
* retro and older-model overkill; i need something new so i'll have ogs later.
When people think so highly of themselves without realizing, and thinking they are actually more down to earth than other shoe fanatics. "Bein apart of the sneakerhead subculture, I hate that label. You all make me look bad.. blah blah blah" ~You are generalizing too much. Every community has the douches, and the chill people. Okay, so you don't feel flaunting and whatnot, and you think that posting your latest pickups on a forum or checking out the latest news on kicks is just apart of adding to the hype… Yet you're passionate enough bout kicks that you ARE HERE reading this. Don't be a hypocrite, and don't stereotype. Not all sneakerheads are high school kiddies claiming their shoe game is tight cuz they been saving up the last 3 months of they allowance, camping out 2 nites ahead of the latest releases even though they look ugly as sin, etc. Shoes are tight, everybody cares about how they look no matter what they say. Just accept it, not everyone is the dickhead that you think they are just cuz they rock the newest retro J's that came out. Hypocrites are bitches.
WHEN unDS-ing OG/FIRST RETRO JORDANS AND THEIR SOLES CRACKK!!
WHEN unDS-ing OG/FIRST RETRO JORDANS AND THEIR SOLES CRACKK!!
WHEN unDS-ing OG/FIRST RETRO JORDANS AND THEIR SOLES CRACKK!!
1.people who wear Fake Kicks & argue there real
2.People who wear every color but the color on there Kicks
3.People who step on my kicks
4.people who make up there own name for sneakers
5.people who have a problem with how many kicks i got or why don't u wear your DS kicks?
did u buy em 4 me ? NO so… (Shut Up)
& the list goes on
I agree with SunnBlaze on both comments that's da truth period!!
f**k boys on sole collector who dont ship after i already shipped. lost my firee reds and my olympic 7s. RIP
-people who don't tuck their jeans into their tongues and pull tabs. especially with foams. i don't care what you say that $hit is lame.
-people who bi+ch incessantly about skinny jeans. get over it it's not 1995 ain't nobody rockin that baggy $hit but 400 pounders and dudes years behind style wise.
-how whiny sneaker enthusiasts tend to be in general(even me)
-being arouund someone in the same shoes as you.
-how almost catty grown men can act dissecting someone else's outfit.
-people who work in shoe stores and have no clue what they're selling.
how older heads seem to constantly be babbling on about how their time growing up was the greatest and the new generation is this and that. get over yourselves, every generation thinks they're the best.

TUM TUM, Wash. -- A vicious attack Tuesday by a pack of dogs left dozens of valuable farm animals dead or maimed. Authorities don't know if the dogs are wild or if people's pets have packed up like a terrorizing gang.
"From the tracks it looks like they started with the chickens, then ripped the rabbit cages open, ripped all the rabbits out, killed all the babies in the nest, and then they saw the sheep," said Sabrina Crooks. Crooks and her mother Mariann are friends of the farm's owner. Both of them are nursing some of the injured animals back to health.
The Stevens County Sheriff's Office is now on the lookout for a pack of dogs, believed to have caused the destruction. They wiped out an entire flock of sheep, along with 25 chickens and 10 pregnant rabbits. A baby bunny was the lone survivor of one of the cages. "Nothing was eaten. They weren't there for food. They weren't hungry, it was just a game. Odds are they'll come back," said Mariann.
For now, all the vulnerable animals the dogs didn't kill are staying at the Crook's. "I'll be milking all the baby goats because there's like 30 of them," said Sabrina. The majority of the animals killed in the attack were going to be sold. The family is now out thousands of dollars, and they aren't alone.
This is the second attack on a farm in the area over the last few days. "Dogs once they pack up are dangerous, not just to animals, once they start taking down 300 lb. sheep you gotta worry about what's going to come next," said Mariann.
With no knowledge of what dogs did this or where they are now, the owner's son says he's anxious about the nights to come. "Yes, I'm nervous because I don't want them coming back, but no, because this time we're ready," said Stephen Hendricks.
The Crooks and Hendricks say they are staying up all night to protect what's left of the animals. The Stevens County Sheriff's Office says attacks on farm animals are not uncommon, but the magnitude of this one is concerning. That's why they are setting up patrols in the area to try and catch these dogs before they can attack again.

Move over Lexus and Mercedes !! by Jim W on 02/09/2012. Trim: 2011 Lincoln MKZ Hybrid Sedan, Owned 1 year.
Pros: the gas mileage wAS EXACTLY AS ADVERTISED AND AT TIMES EVEN BETTER. i HAVE 15,000 MILES ON THE mkz-hYBRID AND NOT A SINGLE PROBLEM. over all MPG since new is 37.8 and on trips here in southern texas have gotten as high as 46 MPG. the SYNC package is outstanding.
Cons: nothing
Overall review: an Excellent Luxury car made in America. I looked at Lexus and Mercedes and purchased a Lincoln !
Review ID: #556002 Is this review offensive?
GOBUYONE by wyomilo on 08/20/2013. Trim: 2011 Lincoln MKZ Hybrid Sedan, Owned less than 1 year.
Pros: this is the best period, style, great tech, it's a head turner
Cons: nothing
Overall review: this is a wonderful automobile and I think this is the best car I've ever purchased, really!! It is stone quite inside and all the tech features are really great. I think this is the best thought out car and the designers at Lincoln should be proud. I love the hybrid ,I drove to Casper Wyoming at got 41 mpg. I looked at a lot of cars and the styling is what won me over.
Review ID: #575414 Is this review offensive?
Best luxury hybrid ever by Mike on 01/06/2013. Trim: 2011 Lincoln MKZ Hybrid Sedan, Owned 1 year.
Pros: Luxury and 38+ mpg what else ya want.
Cons: Nada
Overall review: Most efficient economical car I ever owned.
Review ID: #568435 Is this review offensive?
The finest car we have ever owned! by KENNETH on 07/21/2012. Trim: 2011 Lincoln MKZ Hybrid Sedan, Owned less than 1 year.
Pros: 40 MPG is everyday experience and we love that! The ride and finish is wonderful and the Techie side is out of this world!
Cons: Wish we had bought one sooner!
Overall review: Only wish is for a rear wheel drive version that we understand is in the works.
Review ID: #562006 Is this review offensive?
My Dream Car - The best luxury hybrid ever made by Javdon - Salinas, CA on 01/07/2012. Trim: 2011 Lincoln MKZ Hybrid Sedan, Owned 1 year.
Pros: I think this care is awesome. This is my dream car; it is everything I wanted it to be. I think the thing I like the best is the electric seats and the way that each key can be programmed to match the programming button on the drivers seat; so my key matches my programming number and my husbands matches his. This means that when we get in and use our key the seats and mirrors are automatically changed to our settings and we are ready to go. It's so cool!!
Cons: I think that the biggest flaw of the car is that there is not very much trunk space because the batteries are stored back in that area and take up a lot of what would be trunk space. However, if I continue to get 38 to 40 mpg; I think that I can handle the tradeoff.
Overall review: As I said before this was my dreamcar, so we did not spare any expense. We purchased the top of the line model with every option we could get. I think we got a great deal for our money. We did a lot of research and a lot of shopping around; this was the best luxury hybrid sedan out there. Some of my favorite things about the car are the back up camera, and the blind spot light that goes off when ever someone is in my blind spot. I'm short and can't always set my mirrors so there is no blindspot. This feature works great. The stereo system is great, there are 8 speakers in the car and we have the same type of sound system that the have in the movie theaters. There is a 10GB jukebox that holds something like 2500 songs. You can plug in a USB and play your IPod or charge your phone. There's just so many things that are amazing about this car; you have to go test drive one, you'll fall in love. It comes with Sync and Sirius Satalite radio; two great features.

"The weight of the card/thickness really gives it a high quality feel. The colors are subtle and beautiful. We ended up picking an outfit for our daughter at Carter's that managed to match the colors in the pink in the flowers and the dark gray of the chalkboard pretty much exactly. It looks absolutely fantastic. So far, everyone who has RSVP'd has commented about how beautiful the invite was. I would definitely order from Tiny Prints again."
"I'm very happy with this invite and received so many compliments on it! I picked the most basic paper which is thick and study, but I would prefer a smoother one. I'm sure the upgrades are better. The printing is great! just as it looked online. The colors are bold and there are no pixels."
"Transferred the pictures from my iPhone and the picture still looked awesome. Paper quality of card was just as I expected. No mistakes and got the day of expected delivery. No complaints here:-)"
"Loved the look and quality of this invitation. Everyone said how beautiful it was! I just got standard shipping and they were to me in no time. Thanks so much, will always get my invitations from Tinyprints!"
"Everyone raved about the card. Really had everybody hyped up about the party. I even think it gave a classy approach to our backyard birthday party."

Nantucket Bay Scallops
Just picked up a pound of these gems from the sea at Whole Foods at $30 lb. I was looking for cooking ideas, but the chowpolice moved my recipe request.
So in keeping with the 'rules' anyone know of any boston restaurants that are offering nantucket scallops on their menu's or as specials. They just came into season. I would love to try some chef preperations.
I tried them seared in butter over angel hair with a drizzle of truffle oil. I also served them with pureed celery root and brussle sprouts and leaves browned in butter and garlic with a drizzle of a Le Creme Chardonney/lemon buerre blanc.
So what restaurants are featuring these morsels of heaven from the sea????
Locke Ober generally has them in season..lightly broiled in butter,white wine and light bread crumbs.
Clio usuually has them..more creatively prepared.
re: Chris VR
Last year, Barbara Lynch did them in a steel ramekin with lemon, cream, and buttered lemon-ized bread crumbs at B&G Oysters. @#$^@ incredible.
re: Richard Hurts
Perhaps authorities could alert whole foods if they are selling what are local but not Nantucket scallops? I am so looking forward to the season. Cafe Bella in randolph usually offers them.
re: Richard Hurts
We may need to do a tasting comparison to decide whether Cape, Nantucket, or MV scallops are "better"..sort of like the steak discussion..:)
re: 9lives
Neptune usually has them as a crudo special.
There's an article in WSJ today on Nantucket Bay Scallops. It listed B&G Oysters (Scallop preparation: Served as a special; preparation varies) and Uni Sashimi Bar (Scallop preparation: On the half shell with fruit verjus, wasabi caviar and arugula flowers)
re: rlove
Hook's has had them for a few weeks..from somewhere on the Cape..Wellfleet?
Friedclam fanatic..I've never heard of anyone making a distinction between Nantucket, MV or Cape..til a post here. I've only heard them referred to as Cape or Nantucket..interchangeable.
The WSJ piece reminded me of a gnocchi/scallop dish that I've had at Troquet.
re: rlh
I picked some up from New Deal this morning as well. Oddly, I had never thought of eating scallops raw until I saw a recent post by StriperGuy. Since reading that I had a delightful scallop sashimi at Sushi Island- they were from Hokkaido. I had a few of the Nantucket Bays raw w/ just a drop or two of lemon, very sweet and pristine tasting. The rest I dressed w/ a little unsalted butter a little lemon and a good EVOO then lightly broiled them. Fantastic!
re: Food4Thought
Because of this thread, I picked up $10 worth($30 a pound) at Capt.Marden's this morning...I have to say, after having them plain, then with a touch of soy (just barely) and wasabi (ditto) I can't understand why anyone would EVER cook them. They were indeed, to use that hackneyed phrase, sweet as sugar. What a lovely flavor they left on the tongue.
re: galleygirl
galleygirl, I'm glad I started a thread that inspired. On my next purchase I will definately inquire with the fishmonger about their scallops and whether they are true nantucket scallops. I believe they are the best due to water temps etc, and due to the fact I adore the Duxbury Oysters at Cafe Bella in Randolph more than any other oyster on the eastern coast, including Wellfleet which is my runner up.
I got my scallops last week at Belingham WF and their Island Creek/Duxbury Oysters where wonderful.....but there is something about the Cafe Bella Oysters.......
re: rlove
FYI, the Whole Foods at Symphony does not have Nantucket Bay -- just their usual "sea scallops" that are wet packed.
If anyone did pick up Nantuckets at a WH, I'd love to know which one and what they thought.
Unfortunately for me, I have a hankering for them and New Deal is closed on Sundays!
re: galleygirl
Thanks for the update.
I found them at the River St Whole Foods -- bought the last half pound!
Although i was born on Cape Cod and spent the first 25 years of my life there, this is the first time I have heard of a difference between Nantucket scallops and the Vineyard or Cape Scallops. Sea scallops, yes, farm-raised asian scallops, yes, but never Nantucket vs the surrounding area. What makes them different? And frankly if you do anything other than fry or broil them with a little butter, can you notice a difference? Can you notice the difference with raw ones? We used to eat about 1/5 of our catch as kids when we were opening them.
re: FriedClamFanatic
One of the things i discovered at the Wellfleet oyster festival is that even within small regions/terroir, shellfish differ significantly. I envy anyone who has been able to slurp them up immediately upon harvesting. The best seem to go to wholesalers.
re: FriedClamFanatic
The claim is that of the five eastern species Nantucket's are the sweetest. They are only dredged in Nantucket harbor by a relatively small amount of fisherman in small skiffs. The harbor extends from downtown to Wauwinet and is quite cold which they say makes them the sweetest and plumpest. These scallops are tiny compared to most and never see nitrates. They are also farmed daily so they never spend days on a boat waiting to be processed.
Can you notice a difference? I'd say definitely, but like you said only if treated simply. I wouldn't even fry them. But boy are they expensive! Really good scallops can be had for $12-$15 per #, Nantuckets at $31 is in Kobe territory.
re: T.Clark
Thank you for the elucidation. I grew up on the south side of the Cape and we got ours out of a bay where there were no nineteeth century sewer pipes still pumping out illegally and few boats with defective Y valves. It sounds like one of those "caviar" discussions. I worked (as a cook) for a fairly famous family that had $1700 cans of caviar brought in. I'm not sure after 2 scothches, they could tell the difference. If these are to be truly different, as you say, I suspect raw is the only way to eat them, and then, only on the day purchased.
And on a side note, growing up, mussels covered the jetties on the Cape; no one would ever go after them. Nowadays, try and find one over an inch long. (of course, in the eighteenth and early nineteenth century, lobster was considered peasant food)
re: T.Clark
The same process is done on MV and a few towns on the Cape...
The $12-15/lb scallops are larger and generally come from George's Bank..sea scallops
from last season...
I prefer them raw..maybe a squirt of lemon or soy. If you cook, be careful not to overcook.
re: eddb
I just had them at O Ya. A preparation I tried there almost exactly a year ago, too, and it's right up there with the Hamachi with Banana Pepper Mousse among my favorite dishes of all there.
Plump, sweet bay scallops, served sashimi style but whole, tossed with a creamt coconut nilk dressing heavy on line, green chile pepper, and (maybe) lemongrass and (even less maybe) yuzu.
It's absolutely beautiful.
re: wittlejosh
There's a noticeable difference in size between a true Nantucket (40 - 60 ct / lb) and a Vineyard "eraserhead" (60- 90 ct /lb). There's also a significant price difference. There's nothing worse than paying for one thing and getting another, even if it's a span of 20 miles.
The Nantucket also is known to have a sweeter taste.
re: Richard Hurts
I am a nantucket island resident, and my wife and i have been opening scallops for several of the top fishermen here for the last few years...there is definitely a huge difference in size, flavor, and overall firmness of the scallops here on nantucket vs. cape/vinyard/long island product. I agree, the best way to enjoy them is right out of the shell while the eye muscle is still contracting...so sweet!!! The price on-island is $12 to $15...anyone want a shipment? ;-) Seriously, good luck finding them after next week...its starting to become an all day journey to catch your limit.
Too funny, I read the opening thinking that sounds yummy only to see my name at the end of the OP!
Oh I would love some!
I've watched people simply over do this, even my dad, and ruin this pricey treat. Better to be like mom and keep it simple - saute in hot butter with salt, add pepper with you wish.

Tell us about your situation below and receive a free case review.
Who is covered by South Carolina's workers' compensation?
Employees who suffer job-related injuries and illnesses are covered by
South Carolina's workers' compensation. Unpaid volunteers
aren't subject to the Worker's Compensation Act and are considered
to be "gratuitous employees." However, oftentimes insurers
will try to deny workers compensation benefits to injured workers. That's
why it is so important to contact an experienced workers' compensation lawyer.
Will I be able to sue an employer if they are responsible for the accident?
The workers' compensation system was developed to protect workers
injured at the jobsite without taking into account who's at fault.
Most employers are mandated by law to offer some sort of workers'
compensation benefits for their employees.
If I'm receiving workers' compensation, what benefits can I
expect to receive?
Workers' compensation law allows you to receive compensation for
lost wages, long term injuries, and medical expenses. You are entitled
to compensation at the rate of 66% of your average weekly wage, which
is based on four quarters prior to your injury. Workers' compensation
usually pays for surgery, hospitalization, medical supplies, prosthetic
devices, and prescriptions. However, sometimes the insurance companies
responsible for paying workers' compensation claims make it difficult
for injured workers to get the benefits they deserve. That's why
it is important to talk to an experienced personal injury lawyer about
your work-related injury. Remember that in order to receive benefits,
you must file a claim.
Will I get compensated for missing time from work because of my injury?
Before benefits can be paid, there is a seven day waiting period. If you
are out of work for more than seven days, payments come from your employer's
insurance. If you are out of work for more than 14 days, you can receive
compensation for the first seven days. These payments should continue
until the doctor releases you to go back to work.
What should I do if my injury prohibits me from returning to work?
If you're unable to return to your previous position at work, the
South Carolina Workers Compensation Act allows for the injured employee
to be placed in vocational rehabilitation, which is provided by the workers'
compensation carrier. Vocational rehabilitation is the process of rebuilding
work skills in order to help others recover from a work-related injury
or illness with the aim of gaining employment.
Do I have to see the company's doctor, or can I choose my own doctor?
Under current law, your employer can choose the doctor who will treat you.
If you see your doctor without permission of the employer, your employer
might not be held liable for medical expenses. The doctor's report
can determine which benefits you will receive, and in some cases, the
doctor will minimize the seriousness of your injury in order to retain
business with the employer or insurance company. If you would like to
see another doctor, you can ask the insurance carrier for a second opinion
or request a hearing by filling out Form 50 where a commissioner will
make a decision on your case. This process can be complicated, and seeking
help from an experienced workers' compensation lawyer can help walk
you through this process and protect your rights.
What if my work accident was my fault? Do I still have a case?
Yes, you could still have a case. When injured in an accident at work,
it doesn't matter who's at fault.
Should I tell my boss that I got hurt at work?
Yes. In order to receive worker's compensation benefits, you must
inform your boss so that he/she can report your accident to their insurance
company, which is reported to the Workers' Compensation Commission.
Will I get fired if I make a workers compensation claim?
No, your employer can't fire you in retaliation for filing a worker's
compensation claim. If your employer does fire you, you may be able to
seek damages in civil court.
My injury happened over time. Can I still get compensation?
Yes, you can still receive compensation, depending on your injury and the
circumstances surrounding it. A worker's compensation injury may
happen suddenly or over time. Talk to an experienced workers' compensation
attorney to find out more about your rights under workers' compensation laws.

Environmental Protection Agency regulations would reduce US employment by 1.5 million jobs over the next four years, according to a new study by the American Coalition for Clean Coal Electricity.
Jonathan Ernst/Reuters/File
A new analysis of EPA regulations that would impact the coal-based electricity industry projects that seven rules would reduce U.S. employment by 1.5 million jobs over the next four years. The analysis was conducted by National Economic Research Associates (NERA) on behalf of the American Coalition for Clean Coal Electricity and described in a 129-page report, "Economic Implications of Recent and Anticipated EPA Regulations Affecting the Electricity Sector."
"If the EPA is allowed to continue its aggressive anti-coal agenda, the American economy will lose another 1.5 million jobs in the next four years," said Mike Duncan, president and CEO of ACCCE. "The EPA does not consider the economic consequences of their actions, which in this case will not only erase American jobs; it will raise annual costs to families by hundreds of dollars, the equivalent of a monthly grocery bill."
Key findings of the NERA analysis include:

Surrogacy/Egg Donation: Are You Too Old?
Who's to say when it's too late for a parent to begin that journey?
Karen Roeb: Americans are constantly on the go and are frequent procrastinators. Look virtually anywhere and you will see the signs: fast-food restaurants on every corner, freeway signs giving the exact minutes to your destination, Internet sites providing the latest gossip information, etc. Or how about the New Year's resolution to start that diet, the exercise program we committed to at the gym, pushing off marriage to start a career, or the biggest one of all ... waiting to start a family.
As the field of medicine advances, so does the opportunity for men and women who choose to delay the family building process. Treatments in IVF, egg freezing, egg donation, and surrogacy are constantly evolving, thus making the idea of waiting to start a family very appealing for many individuals and couples.
But when does waiting to start turn into "too old"?
The guidelines provided by the fertility industry state that a couple whose combined ages exceed 110 years or a single parent, regardless of gender, who exceeds the age of 52 should not be allowed to undergo fertility treatment or an egg donor/surrogacy journey. Many IVF physicians, reproductive attorneys, psychologists, egg donors, and surrogates will not even entertain the idea of working with parents that exceed these imposed boundaries. In essence, one person's decision to postpone the joys of parenthood can ultimately be turned away for treatment based on a guideline.
Take, for example, the husband and wife, ages 65 and 45 respectively, who met and married later in life and have no children. Because of their combined ages, should they be denied the right to the advantages and opportunities the field of fertility offers to others based on age?
Are there no case-by-case decisions? Missed opportunities or second chances available? How is it that a guideline has the ability to stand in judgment? Do we not look to the older, wiser, more experienced individual for guidance on important life decisions? Were we not encouraged by our own parents to seek the wisdom from our grandparents on the "ways of the world"? Who's to say that the career-minded and experienced intended parent that happens to have maturity in age wouldn't be the best candidate after all?
Given that Americans and society in general are constantly changing and moving forward in virtually all aspects of their lives, perhaps it is time for society to reevaluate their judgment as the traditional nuclear family is constantly evolving.
|Karen Roeb is the Clinical Administrator for Fertility Miracles, A Division of American Fertility Institute, a leader in egg donation and surrogacy. In her position, Karen brings over 24 years of experience in obstetrics, gynecology and reproductive medicine to Fertility Miracles.

In my point of view at least one of the couple should not exceed the age of 50.
In my point of view at least one of the couple should not exceed the age of 50.
its not fair for the baby to have parents that are that much older then them. Imagine both the parents are 55 when they have a son- that means when he is 10 they are going to be 65- this means, no rough housing, no playing sports with Dad. My parents were not even that old when they had me and I still feel the negative effects of having parents who are older then all the other parents, plus you have degenerative diseases that come with age. When their son reaches college their parents are going to be 73-75 years old- thats if they make it that long. Can you imagine how tragic it would be to lose your parents that young? Or to come to that realization in your teens that your parents are not going to live forever? That your parents will probably now live long enough to see you finish college and start a successful career? I am glad they have this law in some places

Found December 17, 2012 on Buzz On Broad:
PLAYERS: Andy Reid
TEAMS: Philadelphia Eagles
TEAMS: Philadelphia Eagles
The investigation in the fatal death of Garrett Reid, the oldest son of Philadelphia Eagles head coach Andy Reid , showed that there were steroids present in the room the day that he died. Reid was at camp with the Eagles helping out with the team's strength and conditioning coach. There was no evidence, however, that Reid was giving any of the Eagles players steroids. Andy Reid released this statement today in wake of the reports regarding his son: "Jeffrey Lurie, the Eagles organization and the people of Philadelphia have been remarkably supportive of my family throughout our ordeal. I am confident that my son's decisions did not affect our football team in any way. I cannot apologize enough for any adverse appearances that my son's actions may have for an organization and a community that has been nothing but supportive of our family." Eagles Chairman Jeffrey Lurie had a statement of his own about today's reports as well: "The news today on Garrett Reid's possession of steroids is disappointing. It's clear the conduct in which he apparently engaged runs counter to the values and principles mandated for everyone associated with our organization. We have spoken with the league office and have pledged our full cooperation with their requests should there be any. While we remained saddened by the tragic end of a young man's life and know how hard this must be for the entire Reid family, we are extremely confident that Garrett's actions were unknown to those around him and did not involve our football team." Lurie also noted that the NFL has a rigorous drug testing program and that none of the players have tested positive for any steroids that were mentioned in the district attorney's reports. David A.
