1863 Map of Jackson's Flank Attack on the Union 11th Corps
Spotsylvania County, Virginia
Sunday, June 16, 2013
The Civil War Battle of Chancellorsville was fought April 30 to May 6, 1863, in Spotsylvania County, Virginia. Many historians consider the battle to be Confederate General Robert E. Lee's greatest victory. Facing a Union Army more than twice the size of his own, Lee divided his forces, sending 27,000 men under "Stonewall" Jackson on a 12-mile march to deliver a flank attack. In this program, we follow two National Park Service historians on a tour as they walk the same ground exactly 150 years after Jackson launched his attack.

The 1862 Battle of Fredericksburg, Virginia was fought from December 11 to 13 inside and near the small transportation hub along the Rappahannock River, an hour's drive south of Washington, D.C. During events marking the 150th anniversary of a battle that resulted in almost 2,000 deaths and 16,000 casualties, American History TV captured video of re-enactments, including a river crossing and landing under fire and street-to-street urban combat. We spoke with National Park Service historian Frank O'Reilly, homeowner Charles McDaniel, and several participating re-enactors.
Historians Brooks Simpson and Mark Grimsley lead a group on a day-long tour of Antietam National Battlefield, the 1862 engagement that is considered the bloodiest single day in American history. Visiting key locations at the National Park, including the Cornfield, Sunken Lane and Burnside Bridge, the historians use the landscape and demonstrations to show what the battle was like for the armies on the ground.
The Civil War Battle of Shiloh took place April 6th and 7th, 1862 in Hardin County, Tennessee, and resulted in a Union victory over Confederate forces. We visited Shiloh National Military Park, where Stacy Allen, the Park's Chief Ranger, talked about some of the artifacts on display in the Visitor Center, including battle flags, arms and munitions, and personal items from soliders who fought in the battle. He also took us behind the scenes to the Park's storage facility, where he showed us two rare Civil War tents.
The Civil War Battle of Shiloh took place April 6th and 7th, 1862 in Hardin County, Tennessee, and resulted in a Union victory over Confederate forces attempting to defend two major western railroads servicing the strategically important Mississippi Valley region. Nearly 110,000 troops took part in the fighting, which produced almost 24,000 casualties, making it the bloodiest battle to that point in U.S. history. American History TV visited Shiloh National Military Park, where Stacy Allen, the Park's Chief Ranger, gave us a tour of the battlefield.

Uncharted 2 Among Thieves Review (PS3)
Posted by Christophor Rick (TheSuperGuido), Nov 04, 2009 12:49
So Uncharted 2 has been out since mid-October and I've been playing it diligently. So diligently in fact that I forgot to write the review! By now you know all sorts of things are ultra-cool in the game. I'm not going to tell you a lot of new things here, but I said I would write it up and write it up I must.
The very first level of Uncharted 2 Among Thieves is quite possibly the coolest opening sequence for a title ever with you on a train hanging off a cliff. It not only throws you into the story like a two-seam fastball but it secretly tells you the controls you'll need for the rest of the game. Very clever Naughty Dog. The game does a fantastic job of seamlessly sewing together cut-scenes that progress the story and give you an immediate goal and the actual gameplay. It's quite possibly one of the best I've seen and there have been times where I said 'oh! Now I should start playing' because I was so engrossed in the storytelling.
Speaking of the story, it's not totally unique, but it's fresh enough so that you remain interested. There are no amazing plot twists that catch you off guard and it's a classic roguish but noble hero attempts to thwart evil guys from doing evil things and messes up some stuff along the way. Such is life and it makes the character of Nathan Drake more believable because he's not perfect.
But he is in amazing physical shape if you think about all the things that he does in the game . Constantly climbing, running, gunning and throwing people into the air to grab onto out of reach items. Plus he can certainly take a lot of bullets, unless it's to the head. But hey, he's an action star and they can all manage that stuff right?
The graphics on the game are extremely well done aside from some minor flaws. People in the game have some of the creepiest eyes I've ever seen and at times there are some strange graphical glitches. But really they're all minor when you're running down a street firing a pistol at ten bad guys chasing you.
Physics in the game are quite well done also. There's lots of stuff that you can blow up and affect in the environment but it's not totally destructible like say reality or Red Faction Guerrilla. There are also some minor glitches here. I fell 'through' some boards just by walking on them and had to restart from the last checkpoint because I had fallen 'into' the level itself and could not move. But hey, at least you can swim in the game, so water is not acid-based like days of old.

NOT a beverage warmer
By Gadgetlover47
from Pittsburgh PA
I ordered this because my coffee is usually very cold before I've finished half mug. Being able to plug it into the USB port meant I wouldn't have to crawl under my desk to find an open outlet for a plug. Well, the "not-so-hot" plate isn't wide enough for the mug that has "Grandma" on it, so I had to change cups. Worse, it does NOT warm the beverage in the cup - and I'd switched to a pretty thin cup. I finally put my fingers right on the plate, gingerly, and it was only medium warm itself. Grrrrrr.

Streamer Flies - Trout Fly Fishing Flies for Sale
What Are Streamer Flies?
Streamers are lures tied with feathered wings, usually cock neck or saddle hackles or even a feather and hair combination. Trout streamer flies are very popular patterns for Rainbow Trout and Brown Trout in stillwaters and rivers
How Do You Fish Streamer Patterns For Trout
Normally just one or 2 streamer fly patterns will put onto droppered leaders with a long leader of 12 to 20 feet. These will be stripped or retrieved with a figure of 8 retrieve. Try stopping the streamer flies to make them look like fish that have darted across the water and then stopped acting like natural small fish, this teqhnique of starting and stopping is naural rather than a continuous stripping technique and frequently will be deadly wen trout are really hitting lures.

We are a small cattery based in Louisville, Kentucky. We are involved in showing our breeding cats to confirm that we are breeding individuals that are great examples of the breed. Our cattery name, Aali (pronounced ahh-lee), is Arabic for supreme or exalted- and that's the type of Sphynx we are working to produce.
We are working dilligently to create a great breeding program. Our lines are from Bemisu- our future sire, Ormsby, and Paradais Sphynx, our future queen, Blanche. Both lines have been screened for good health and bred for correct type and structure according to the TICA breed standard. We are strict believers of screening all of our cats, especially our breeding cats, for HCM (hypertrophic cardiomyopathy) yearly. We also own two altered Sphynx males, Purvis and Felton. We fell so deeply in love with them to start that we couldn't help but try and improve the breed by getting involved!
Our breeding cats have yet to be old enough to produce their first litter, so please keep checking back for updates.

Welcome to Mug Shot Monday! This is the latest entry in a series of posts highlighting inmate photographs in the records of the Virginia Penitentiary. Walter E. Stiars, the subject of this week's post, is in essence the father of Mug Shot Monday. His daring 1906 escape from the Virginia Penitentiary, eerily similar to Andy Dufresne's in the film The Shawshank Redemption, was the catalyst for requiring that prisoners be photographed.
On 28 February 1905, the Manchester Corporation Court sentenced Walter E. Stiars, age 30, to eight years in the Virginia Penitentiary on two counts of breaking and entering. Penitentiary officials considered Stiars dangerous. They assigned him to work in the office of the Davis Boot and Shoe Company in order to keep him under constant surveillance and away from any tools. The noon dinner bell rang as usual on Saturday, 16 June 1906. During roll call, Stiars did not answer "adsum" when his name was called. A search of the prison revealed he was not on the premises and Penitentiary officials presumed he escaped sometime on the evening of 15 June. Or had he? As a precaution, extra guards were posted along the outer walls. Penitentiary Superintendent Captain Evan F. Morgan was confident Stiars would be captured. "We expect to land him," Morgan told the Richmond Times-Dispatch on 17 June, "and … read more »
Cornbread and cabbage turned lethal for one Petersburg woman, but it was another woman's need for some chicken feed that exposed the death as something more nefarious than a simple case of food poisoning. Parmelia Williamson became "deathly sick" after consuming what proved to be her last meal on 9 June 1909. Junius Williamson, Parmelia's husband, first used the word "poison" to describe his wife's condition because he did "not think she washed the ham as it oughter [sic] have been." Even Parmelia said "her stomach felt like it did when she was poisoned in the country."
Attended by her husband and neighbor Delia Brooks, Parmelia was examined by a Dr. W. C. Powell who pronounced it a case of "Cholera Morbus," but Parmelia insisted, "I have no Cholera Morbus, I am poisoned." He gave her a hypodermic injection, put hot water bottles to her feet, and left. As she continued vomiting, her condition worsened, and she threw her arms up and said, "Delia, save me, do not let me die…save me for the sake of my poor little infant baby." Another doctor, James E. Smith, was called and pronounced that Mrs. Williamson would not live two hours and that she had been poisoned by arsenic or "Paris Green," a compound used as an insecticide for produce in the 1900s. After she gasped … read more »
Welcome to Mug Shot Monday–Archives Month Edition. This is the latest entry in a series of posts highlighting early parole information in the records of the Virginia Penitentiary. Elmer Raines, the subject of this week's post, was paroled in July 1911. His freedom was shortlived. Raines was back in the Penitentiary by November 1911 under a new name, Charles H. Kimball, one of many aliases "Raines" used.
Thirty-five-year-old Pennsylvania native Elmer Raines arrived at the Virginia Penitentiary on 14 July 1909. Raines was convicted of forgery in the Roanoke Corporation Court and sentenced to four years in prison. At the time of his incarceration, Raines had two known aliases: Henry Fairfax and Frank Fairfax. Penitentiary officials also learned of a new one: William H. Reynolds. On 2 February 1911, Penitentiary Superintendent J.B. Wood received a letter from a Mrs. William H. Reynolds of Macon, Georgia, inquiring if her husband, Elmer Raines, would be paroled in July. "I have tried to be patient," Mrs. Reynolds wrote, "and sometimes think I can not get along alone and make a living[,] however I have been very successful so far." By June 1911, Mrs. Reynolds' fortunes had changed. "[K]indly do all you can to get [Raines] pardoned in July," she wrote Wood, "for I need his protection more than I can tell you." The Virginia Penitentiary … read more »
Welcome to Mug Shot Monday–Archives Month Edition. This is the latest entry in a series of posts highlighting early parole records in the Virginia Penitentiary. Joe Perry, the subject of this week's post, was paroled in December 1910. After his release, he exchanged several warm letters with Superintendent J.B. Wood.
Forty-two-year-old Joe Perry of Buchanan County arrived at the Virginia Penitentiary on 30 August 1906 to begin serving a ten-year sentence for second degree murder. He was a model prisoner and did not violate any rules during his incarceration. In May 1909, Perry found a repeating shotgun which one of the guards had left in a common area of the penitentiary and returned it to prison officials. On 14 December 1910, this incident, along with Perry's good conduct and clemency petitions submitted by Buchanan County citizens, led Governor William Hodges Mann to commute his sentence to eight years. This made Perry parole eligible. Five days later the Virginia Penitentiary Board of Directors granted it without requiring Perry to secure employment.
Upon his return home to Council, Virginia, Perry wrote Superintendent J.B. Wood on 14 January 1911 to thank him. "I feel that I owe you so many thanks for the kind treatment I received from you and your officials during my time there," wrote Perry. "I can't find words … read more »
Welcome to Mug Shot Monday–Archives Month Edition! This is the latest entry in a series of posts highlighting early parole records in the Virginia Penitentiary. Edmonia M. Peebles, the subject of this week's post, brutally killed her husband. Her subsequent manslaughter conviction as well as the decision to grant her parole was controversial.
On the afternoon of 31 August 1907, David C. Peebles and his 11-year-old daughter Mary Sue arrived at their home in Bedford County, having spent several days in Lynchburg. His wife, Edmonia, was working in their detached kitchen. David was drunk and argumentative. David cursed her and accused her of neglecting her responsibilities. Edmonia responded that "if I were a man I'd give you a good thrashing, but I can't beat you." Enraged, David attempted to choke her; Edmonia grabbed a stove-lifter and stuck him several times on the head. Peebles grabbed an axe handle and beat her with it. Edmonia got away from him, ran into the house, grabbed a shotgun and returned to the kitchen. Peebles was washing the blood off his face. "You see that don't you?" he shouted. "You made me do it," Edmonia replied, "but I want to know if you are going to beat me anymore." Peebles grabbed the axe and started towards her. "I am not going to let you beat me … read more »
Welcome to Mug Shot Monday–Archives Month Edition! This is the latest entry in a series of posts highlighting the records of the Virginia Penitentiary. This month's entries will spotlight early parole records. An 1898 Act of the Virginia General Assembly (amended several times) granted the Virginia Penitentiary Board of Directors power to parole prisoners if they met certain conditions. To be eligible the inmate must have served half his term, have not broken any prison rules for the two years preceding the date of one-half his term and the prisoner must have assurance of employment upon his discharge. In 1915, the Virginia Attorney General issued an opinion stating that any legislation limiting the power of the governor to grant clemency was unconstitutional.
On 30 January 1909, Ben F. Parker, a 30-year-old African American from Nansemond County, arrived at the Virginia Penitentiary to begin serving a three-year sentence for forgery. Parker was sent to work on the Bedford County road force operated by W.H. McMillan. He was a model prisoner. After serving half his sentence, Parker applied for a conditional pardon (parole) in August 1910. C.T. Allen, a farmer in Good View, Virginia, agreed to employ Parker on his farm for $6 a month for seventeen months. Allen also promised to "take a friendly interest" in Parker, "to counsel and advise him in which … read more »
Welcome to Mug Shot Monday Special Edition. This is the final post focusing on records at the Library of Virginia related to the "Hillsville Massacre."
In March 1913, Floyd Allen and his son Claude were executed for the 14 March 1912 murder of Commonwealth's Attorney William Foster. The Allens' case had gone through many twists and turns since the shootout in the Carroll County courthouse the previous March. The trials of Floyd Allen, Claude Allen, Friel Allen, Sidna Allen, Wesley Edwards, and Sidna Edwards took place in Wytheville from April to December 1912. The prosecution's strategy was to prove the courthouse shooting was a premeditated conspiracy in order to make each defendant equally liable for the murders. On 18 May 1912, Floyd Allen was found guilty of the first degree murder of Commonwealth's Attorney Foster. The prosecution's strategy failed in the trial of Claude Allen. He was convicted of the second degree murder of Judge Thornton Massie because the prosecution failed to prove a conspiracy. Claude Allen then was tried twice for the murder of Foster. The first trial resulted in a hung jury. In the second trial, Allen was convicted of first degree murder. Floyd and Claude Allen were sentenced to die in the electric chair at the Virginia Penitentiary on 22 November 1912.
The execution did not happen in November. In order to … read more »
Welcome to Mug Shot Monday Special Edition. This is the fifth post focusing on records at the Library of Virginia related to the "Hillsville Massacre."
In December 1912 in the Wythe County Circuit Court, Wesley Edwards, nephew of Floyd Allen, was sentenced to 27 years in the Virginia Penitentiary for two counts of first degree murder and one count of second degree murder for his involvement in the Carroll County shootout. Edwards was admitted to the penitentiary on 14 December 1912. An anonymous fellow prisoner, writing in the 27 April 1922 issue of the inmate-run penitentiary newspaper, The Beacon, shared his observations of Wesley Edwards:
"The first day I was in prison I ran into Wesley Edwards on the steps of the Industrial Department and started a conversation with him. As soon as I told him where I was from, he at once extended his hand, with a smile, and said he was glad to see someone from near his old home, though he was sorry to see me in trouble. I in turn extended my sympathy to him. My thoughts of him were many, the chief one being how strange it seemed that this tall, blue-eyed, young fellow could be so jovial and so interested in his work. He was even then in a hurry, had saw-dust in his hair and on
Welcome to Mug Shot Monday Special Edition. This is the fourth post focusing on records at the Library of Virginia related to the "Hillsville Massacre."
In December 1912 in the Wythe County Circuit Court, Sidna Allen, brother of Floyd Allen, was sentenced to 35 years in the Virginia Penitentiary for the crimes of first, second and third degree murder. Allen was admitted to the penitentiary on 14 December 1912. An anonymous fellow prisoner, writing in the 27 April 1922 issue of the inmate-run penitentiary newspaper, The Beacon, shared his observations of Sidna Allen:
"I at last had an opportunity to go through the carpenter shop where I saw Sidna Allen…I stopped and watched him for a while at his work, before I went over and talked with him. He was working with as much zeal as any man who owned and operated a manufacturing plant. His hair was a silvery gray, though tinted with the yellow saw-dust, and his face pale, though it had the illuminated appearance of a pure Christian man….After talking with him a little while I found that the expression on his face was only revealing the man as he was; a true Christian man. Sunday morning and any time he had a spare, you could see him sitting around reading the Bible and enjoying the words he was daily
Welcome to Mug Shot Monday Special Edition. This is the third post focusing on records at the Library of Virginia related to the "Hillsville Massacre."
In August 1912 in the Wythe County Circuit Court, Sidna Edwards, nephew of Floyd Allen, plead guilty to second-degree murder for his involvement in the Carroll County shootout. He was sentenced to 15 years in the Virginia Penitentiary and admitted on 18 September 1912. By all accounts Edwards was a model prisoner. The 27 April 1922 issue of The Beacon, the inmate-run penitentiary newspaper, contained this observation of Sidna Edwards by a fellow prisoner:
"[I] noticed a stalwart looking man standing on the prison hospital steps. He had a young, though sad looking face, his hair was beginning to silver and his general expression showed much pain and worry for a young man of his seeming age. I remarked to another prisoner that the big, young fellow seemed rather under the weather. 'Yes,' he said, 'that is Sidna Edwards. He has rheumatism and has been in the hospital a long time, although not confined to bed. He has the duty of nursing the other patients.' To describe him takes only a few words, he has one of the most gentle, accommodating, kind and truthful dispositions that I have ever met in any man. He is generally liked and

A Leon County woman is dead after she was hit by a truck late Monday night. The accident happened just before 10 p.m. on FM 1146, 9.7 miles north of Marquez.
State troopers say a 2002 Chevy truck was headed southbound when it struck 35-year-old Chrystal Rene Noey. She was pronounced dead at the scene. Troopers say the victim lived near the location of the accident.
Her body has been sent to the Southwest Institute for Forensic Science in Dallas for an autopsy.

Shaun White
Shaun White
Like a shredding Jimmy Page, Shaun White's list of hits might as well be categorized as platinum.
Since turning pro at 13, Shaun won every major halfpipe contest before he was 20, including his first Olympic Gold in Torino—vaulting him into legit celebrity status. With his face on a Wheaties box, Rolling Stone cover appearances, and his own signature Burton line: The White Collection, Shaun was in a league of his own. Inventing and perfecting double corks occupied the next four years and helped him secure a second Olympic Gold in Vancouver and in turn, he set the current competitive standard. Shaun's relatively mellow 2013 season was still full of superlatives—tying the title for consecutive Winter X Games wins (six superpipes in a row) and most US Open wins (five). Was he throttling back? Nah, he's just getting ready to tackle both superpipe and slopestyle in the 2014 Sochi Olympics. We can't wait to watch the show.Age: 28 Home Town: Carlsbad, California Home Mountain: Northstar-at-Tahoe Stance: Regular, 23" wide, 12° front, -3° back

A rich layer of finds from the latter part of the First Temple period (8th-6th centuries BCE) was recently discovered in archaeological salvage excavations that are being carried out in the northwestern part of the Western Wall plaza, c. 100 meters west of the Temple Mount.
In the excavations, which the Israel Antiquties Authority has been conducting for the past two years under the direction of archaeologists Shlomit Wexler-Bdoulah and Alexander Onn, in cooperation with the Western Wall Heritage Foundation, remains of a magnificent colonnaded street from the Late Roman period (2nd century CE) were uncovered that appears on the mosaic Madaba map and is referred to by the name – the Eastern Cardo. The level of the Eastern Cardo is paved with large heavy limestone pavers that were set directly on top of the layer that dates to the end of the First Temple period. Thus the Roman road "seals" beneath it the finds from the First Temple period and has protected them from being plundered in later periods.
This is actually the first time in the history of the archaeological research of Jerusalem that building remains from the First Temple period were exposed so close to the Temple Mount – on the eastern slopes of the Upper City. The walls of the buildings are preserved to a height of more than 2 meters.

*Download a separate Detailed Itinerary for our Snorkeling Raja Ampat departures
Indonesia's Raja Ampat archipelago is a world far beyond the path of most travelers. This string of countless limestone islands with fringing reefs supports astonishing biodiversity—pink pygmy seahorses, technicolor soft corals, ghost pipefish, tasseled wobbegongs, hawksbill turtles, octopus, eight different species of anemonefish—the abundance is mind-bending. Aboard our 100-foot traditional Indonesian schooner with an expert marine biologist Trip Leader at our side, we head out into the southern realm of Raja Ampat, the Misool Islands, to snorkel in an impossibly vivid marine ecosystem, with evenings spent in exquisite and remote anchorages. This exceptional outpost of marine diversity astounds even the most seasoned snorkeler!
Itinerary at a Glance
For a more complete description, Download Full Detailed Itinerary
Day 1
Sorong, Indonesia
Arrive in Sorong, embark aboard our traditional schooner, and head south toward Misool Island in the Raja Ampat archipelago. Conservation International and The Nature Conservancy consider this region to shelter the world's richest coral ecosystems. It is the epicenter of the most diverse and healthy coral reefs on earth, and the profusion and variety of exotic marine life in these blue waters is unparalleled.
Days 2-3
Wagmab Island
In the idyllic setting of Wagmab Island, we slip into the water for our first snorkeling session, encircled by schools of bright blue-green damselfish and paired bannerfish. We explore hidden niches in shallow bays that hold rare shrimp gobies, octopus, nudibranchs, and "twilight zone" critters.
Days 4-5
Fiabachet Island / East Kali
We explore the coral reefs off Fiabachet Island, drift-snorkeling through a marine habitat of luminous fish to enjoy one of the ultimate underwater experiences on the planet. On the kaleidoscopic reefs of East Kali, we snorkel through valleys of soft and hard corals, watching colorful marine life such as lizardfish lazing on large plate corals and lionfish hiding underneath.
Days 6-7
Pele / Len Makana
In Pele, a small group of islands, we discover a true tropical frontier as we explore the calm waters near our anchorage. The islands of Len Makana bring us aqua-colored parrotfish, bright butterflyfish, and cryptically colored groupers inhabiting the unmapped walls and reef flats.
Days 8-10
Len Kafal / East Misool
Below the precipitous, craggy cliffs that make up Len Kafal, we slip into the water to observe vivid soft corals that come in all shades of purples, pinks, and reds. Schools of fusiliers and surgeonfish swim along the shallow reef, watchful of marauding jacks. Amid the craggy, limestone islands of East Misool, we explore the maze-like lagoon by dinghy, with breathtaking photography opportunities in every direction.
Days 11-12
Kabui Bay
At the northernmost point of our trip, we drift-snorkel through a wonderland of giant sea fans and soft corals, and explore caves and beaches. On Day 12, we awake in Sorong's lively harbor, bid farewell, and depart on homeward-bound flights.

What the Trip is Like
This trip is Level 3, Moderate. It is relaxed enough to allow ample time for photography, snorkeling, and exploration by dinghy. On any trip of this nature, however, it is impossible to predict what the weather will have in store and activities often vary with each day. Because the primary focus of the trip is snorkeling, we require that trip members know how to swim and bring their own good quality, well-fitted equipment, including mask, snorkel, and fins. Try out your gear in a swimming pool before you go to make sure that it works for you and is comfortable. There is ample time for both scheduled snorkels and free snorkeling, and for the most part the water time is "at your own pace." We will have a "refresher" snorkel in calm waters at the beginning of the trip, and there will be several drift snorkels (with some current) during the trip. We usually have two to three snorkeling adventures each day of one or two hours each. Our shore landings are "wet" (which involves stepping out of the dinghy and wading to shore). Kayaking experience is not necessary, and we have the option to use our inflatable kayaks a couple of times throughout the trip. The cook on board prepares simple and tasty meals, a mix of Asian and Western styles with plenty of seafood. Note: Vegetarians who do not eat seafood may find their choices somewhat limited.

Traditional Indonesian Schooner
Our Trips using this Lodging:
Sorong, Indonesia
Our vessel is a double-masted traditional Indonesian sailboat that offers the unique opportunity to explore the incredibly remote, unique, and mystical Raja Ampat archipelago. The boat was built in Sulawesi in 2000 out of Indonesian hardwoods and is 100 feet long with a 21-foot beam. While not luxurious, she is comfortable and well maintained. She accommodates 10 guests in basic cabins that are small but have individually controlled air-conditioning and electricity 24 hours a day. There are no en suite cabins, but there are three shared toilet/shower combinations on the boat. The boat is very sturdy and stable, whether still or under motor. The boat's crew of seven is attentive, experienced, and helpful, and many have worked on the boat for years. Note: The boat has steep stairs/ladders from the double cabins up to the main deck (the restrooms and dining room are located on the main deck), so it may not be suitable for people with limited mobility.
Note: Listed above are our signature accommodations for this trip. Although it is highly unlikely, we may make substitutions when necessary.

Welcome to the 1911Census.org.uk site ...information about the 1911 census, how to access the census online, how to make the most from your searches, what is available and not available, and much, much, more.
1921 Census
Who Do You Think You Are magazine
Births, Marriages and Deaths from 1837
FreeCen - free 19th century UK census returns
Census forms for 1971, 1981, 1991, 2001 and 2011
The 1921 Census for England, Wales and Scotland was taken on the night of Sunday 19th June 1921.
It had been originally planned that the census would be taken on the night of 24th April 1921 but this was delayed because of strikes.
Extra questions asked over the 1911 census included
The question introduced in 1911 about the number of children was dropped, the reason given was that the results from the previous census had not yet been tabulated. Also the question about blindness, deafness or dumbness were removed on the grounds that the parents had objected to giving this information about their children with the result that answers given in the previous census were unreliable.
There was no 1921 census of Ireland, more details here. The next census both for the Irish Free State and Northern Ireland which remained part of the United Kingdom was taken in 1926. In the case of Northern Ireland, the census was taken on the night of 18/19 April 1926 with the police used as enumerators. The census for The Irish Free State was taken on the same night.
The 1926 Census for Ireland (the Republic of Ireland) is currently (June 2012) in the process of being released by legislation to enable it to be made available to the public with the hope it will be accessible by 2016.
The ruling by the Information Commissioner that resulted in the 1911 census being opened early does not apply to the 1921 census because, unlike the 1911 census, the 1921 census was conducted under the 1920 Census Act, which is still in force and which contains a statutory prohibition on disclosure.
The stated government position from the ONS is "its intention to release the entirety of the 1921 census returns in 2022, in accordance with the non-statutory '100 year rule' which was adopted to reflect this undertaking of confidentiality".

10 things we can't live without (but Grandma did)
It's hard to imagine people getting by without things like cellphones, ATMs, the Internet and permanent press fabric.
This post comes from Len Penzo at partner blog Len Penzo dot Com.
Recently I read an article over at Frugal Dad in which Jason discussed modern conveniences that our grandparents lived without -- and we probably could too.
According to Jason, life would still go on if we didn't have products and services like GPS devices, plastic sandwich bags, tanning salons, and even health insurance. While I mainly agreed with Jason, there are two items on his list on which we have a real difference of opinion (which I'll get to in a moment).
Of course, that got me thinking about all the other things that our grandparents lived without that I consider to be truly indispensable today. Here are 10 products or services that I happened to come up with:
The Internet. Never mind the increased traffic and crowds at brick-and-mortar stores, or longer lines of people waiting to pay their bills at the last minute. If the Internet disappeared tomorrow, it would likely result in a tremendous hit to the U.S. economy. A recent study found that the Internet is responsible for a little over 3 million jobs, with the value of their wages alone equal to 2% of GDP -- and that's before you consider lost productivity, reduced avenues for commerce and innovation, and the rapid exchange of information.
Modern commercial passenger jet airliner. The introduction of the Boeing 707 in 1958 kicked off the Jet Age and the beginning of affordable commercial intercontinental travel for the masses. Today, more people than ever can travel from one coast to the other in a matter of hours -- or travel to the other side of the world in less than a day. It's just too easy to take this convenience for granted.
Credit and debit cards. Although Jason will tell me that Grandma and Grandpa got along just fine before "plastic money" was invented in 1950, there are too many credit card advantages to ignore. Besides, we live in the electronic age now; it's tough to buy anything on the Internet without a credit card. Heck, these days your cash is no good if you want to buy an in-flight snack on a lot of airlines. And who wants to carry around thousands of dollars in their wallet whenever they plan on buying a big-ticket item?
IPod. Scoff all you want; you know I'm right.
Automated teller machines. Here's a fun ATM machine fact: Before ATMs became ubiquitous -- and cash was still king -- you didn't have a lot of options if the banks were closed and you needed paper currency. If you were lucky, you could go to a local market that was willing to cash your personal check, or borrow money from a friend or neighbor. If not, no soup for you. You'd just have to wait until the banks opened the next day. That is, unless you were at the front end of a three-day bank holiday. (Talk about a long weekend.)
Personal computer. The personal computer is arguably the greatest invention of the last 100 years. The power of the computer is used in so many ways, across so many industries, that it is virtually impossible to imagine living in the world today without them.
Tax preparation software. Yes, it's still possible to do your taxes with a calculator, the requisite IRS tax forms, and a sharp pencil. It's also still possible to make your own soap from rendered animal fat, but that doesn't make a lot of sense anymore either. Just sayin'.
Cellphone. Jason and I disagree here too. People who find themselves away from home without a cellphone and need to make a call have a bit of a problem. That's because the days of finding a pay phone on every corner are long, long gone. Consider that, as recently as 2000, there were more than 2 million pay phones in the United States. By 2007, however, there were only 870,000. Anecdotal evidence suggests the numbers have continued to drop. When was the last time you saw a working street corner pay phone?
Overnight mail delivery. Although highly important and/or perishable goods have been delivered by air mail since 1918, an air-based mail system capable of delivering letters and other small packages on a large scale virtually anywhere in the country wasn't established until 1977. Today, either directly or indirectly, almost everyone takes advantage of overnight mail service more than they want to admit.
Permanent press fabric. You think people were upset when Pia Toscano got prematurely booted off "American Idol"? That's nothing compared with what would happen if you took away permanent press fabric; most people would finally have to learn how to use an iron. Well, at least Grandma would be proud.
More on Len Penzo dot Com and MSN Money:
Ironically, I'm one of the newer generations and I don't need most of that.
Thank god I was taught to iron, because all of my clothes are made out of actual fabric. The only thing I can't live without would probably be the internet. I don't even need a cell phone or a home computer, as I could just buy a portable hard drive instead.
Love the iPod blurb, though.
This has got to be one of the stupidest articles I've seen in a LOOOOOONG time! If you can't do without everything on her list you are in a world of hurt!
Like someone else mentioned....try doing without electricity, running water, indoor toilets, clothes dryers, more than one pair of shoes, modern cooking range (I learned to cook on a wood cook stove) , fruit & veggies out of season!
I know how to use an iron. I actually own clothes that are not made from petroleum products and therefore require a bit of real care.
I do miss the days when air travel was more... what's the word?... civlized, certainly, but also less in demand; when you could have an entire row of seats to yourself - maybe even the row behind you and in front you empty as well. Ah, to stretch out, relax, and actually have a bit of quiet while flying the formerly-friendly skies.
This author has a serious misunderstanding between wants and needs.
Many of these are conveniences, but not absolute needs. If your income was cut to the bare minimum, there is no way you can afford all of these products and/or services.
For the millions of unemployed people and homless people, they get buy without many of these things. So are we suggeesting that they are somehow not part of modern society?
Do you pesonally know of anyone who doesn't:
- use the internet
- fly aywhere
- own a credit card
- own an iPod
- use ATM's (this is dependant on having Debit/Credit cards)
- have a personal computer
- use tax preparation software
- own a cell phone
- use overnight shipping
- own all permanent press clothing
I personally know many people for each of these categories, but I don't know of anyone who lacks every single one of them.
All of these things are wants (conveniences), not needs. In fact I would argue that society would be better off without a few of thee things - but that's a whole seperate conversation.
The fact is that almost no one can live without every single item on the list.
The internet - whether you pay for it at home or go to an internet cafe/library/etc - is becoming required for many tasks - looking up information, research, applying for a job (some companies require you to fill out online applications).
As for debit/credit cards - it is impossible to buy anything on the internet without a debit/credit card, renting a car/hotel room is nearly impossible without it, and most banks nowadays require you to have a debit card and pin even when being served by a teller - you swipe your card, enter your pin, and that's how they verify your identity.
Personal computers: whether or not you own one is irrelevant - at the library, you have to use a computer to look up locations of books; at work, it's pretty much required (except for certain trades and physical jobs) and most businesses cannot manage inventory and accounts without a computer - could you imagine keeping a giant ledger book for 1000 - 3000 customers (which is the average for a small business)?

It's also important to keep in mind that the rest of the group is extremely important to healing successfully now. When I started with my Pally in heroics I was pretty spoiled, getting some pugs that knew how to CC, get out of the fire and wait on mana before charging. I wondered what everyone was complaining about. Later I got a few of the infamous groups that make healers want to die and understood the complaints better.
I feel like things are getting better overall as people are learning but we have to keep in mind we can't correct for everyone's laziness anymore like we used to. the rest of the group doing their duty is just as important to our success as we are to theirs.

Lately I have been finding my photographic tastes running more and more to black & white in my portrait photography. It just seems that the images I like the best, lately, have more power when I produce them in B&W.
It is should not surprise me that I am trending towards this style, especially since one of my photographic heroes is Yousuf Karsh. His dramatic style has produced some of the most iconic portraits of famous people I have ever seen. I never tire of his work and find it inspiring.
Not that my work even approaches that of Mr. Karsh. I still have a long way to go in that regard. I still find that the black & white treatment allows for us to see the contours of the face and the power in the eyes more so than colour. Karsh's work, of course, goes beyond mere lighting and technique. He managed to capture something of the spirit of his subject, allowing us to feel that we know more about that person after having viewed their portrait. I would love to be able to produce those kinds of images in my work.
The portrait above is of Susie, a local squash professional here in Calgary. Originally from England, she has made a name for herself by becoming one of the top ranking squash players in Canada, as well as being a well respected teaching professional. For this image I was trying to capture the intensity of her formidable squash playing. How did I do?
This image was taken using a Nikon D300 at ISO 400. Shutter speed was 1/250s and aperture was f/7.1 using a Sigma 24-70 f2.8 lens at 70mm. Two gridded speed lights at 1/16 power were used behind her on either side and the main light was a firefly beauty light fixture on a SB900 speed light using iTTL. Post processing was done in Aperture 3.2, onOne's Perfect Portrait, and Nik's Silver Efex was used for black & white conversion.

Hey Doug, I've been drawn to mono recently as well. There's something special about an image that has no colour influence.

The ratcheting action, of course, enables you to reposition the wrench on the fastener for loosening or tightening without lifting it off. Flip the wrench around and you have a reinforced open end that resists tip spreading under high torque. A thick, rounded beam and matte surfaces give these tools a non-slip grip, and high-contrast markings make them easier to identify in the tool drawer. Craftsman's Universal Ratcheting Wrenches come in two sets: standard, in sizes ranging from 5/16" through 11/16", as well as metric, with 10mm through 17mm wrenches included. Either set includes a reusable caddy and retails for $49.99. Find them at Craftsman.com or at Sears and Kmart stores nationwide.

The New England Patriots, like all other 31 teams in the league, have until 4:00 PM EST today to designate a franchise tag either on Wes Welker, Sebastian Vollmer or Aqib Talib. Per Comcast SportsNet Tom Curran, the Patriots are still debating whether to use the tag.
Frankly, the team will not apply the $11.4 million tag on Welker as contract negotiations were in progress as previously reported last week by NFL.com Ian Rapoport.
When weighing the options between Sebastian Vollmer, whose franchise tag is $9.1 million, and Aqib Talib, a costly $10.85 million for non-exclusive tender or $9.1 million for a transition tag, the scenario that the Patriots would this amount for either one very doubtful.
Already under contract for 2013 and 2014, the organization just got a grasp of fresh air with Tom Brady's three-year contract extension worth $57 million overall, which allows the Patriots to save $15 million in cap dollars over the next two seasons. Another possible savings is the possibility of "letting Brandon Lloyd go" due to "erratic behavior", a contract stipulation that gives the team an out, which in return the team does not have to pay Lloyd his $3 million option bonus and due salary of $1.9 million. That's $4.9 million that doesn't go against the cap for this season.
Opting out of the franchise tag, the team can then capitalize on its saving and offer a deal for those players, while still being able to navigate freely in free agency and the upcoming draft.
Starting on March 9 teams are allowed to start negotiating with agents of the players set to hit free market, which gives the team more leverage to lock them up before they can start negotiating with other teams.
As time is running out, I look forward to hearing news on a Welker, Talib and Vollmer deal. Once we get these deals in place, it will be easier to tackle other flaws in the roster.

Wait a minute ! Why is he calling Romney a liar when all of the fact checkers are saying that it was Obama who was telling the whoppers?
He is doing what SNL does so well. Hitting Obama on the obvious to seem above the fray, and then driving home his real message — Romney is a liar.
This is what Saturday Night Live did to Sarah Palin. They hit Obama just enough to try to appear neutral, suckering in the more gullible, but their overall theme was that she is a dumbass.
Don't be fooled by these people. They are liberal, and they have an agenda. If you find yourself tickled about what they are saying about a lib, realize that is just them giving you a reach-around so you won't notice the business going on behind.
Tonight on The Daily Show, Jon Stewart declared that this "deeply divided nation" has finally agreed on something, President Obama gave a bad performance at last night's debate, to put it mildly. Stewart was amazed at how Mitt Romney was so easily able to claim a rhetorical victory over the president despite, as Stewart pointed out, the Republican challenger throwing out a number of lies during the debate. Stewart also targeted moderator Jim Lehrer for his poor performance, suggesting it was due to a Quantum Leap-style infection of Lehrer's body. Stewart marveled at how Obama lost despite Romney's odd comments about his willingness to cut funding for PBS and Big Bird, whom Stewart deemed "America's favorite non-fried bird."
Stewart couldn't figure out why Obama did not look up at Romney that much, until he cut to the president writing a naked picture of Romney a la Rose in Titanic.

The St. Louis Rams are enduring a but-whipping at the hands of the AFC West-rival San Francisco 49ers, but they may have suffered a bigger loss than that, as starting rookie safety T.J. McDonald was carted off the field with 10 minutes left in the third quarter after suffering an injury to his right leg.
As it turns out, he will likely be out for the remainder of the season after fracturing his leg:
Rams S TJ McDonald suffered a leg fracture that led to him being carted off, 2 sources say. He was a Jeff Fisher favorite, tough blow.
— Ian Rapoport (@RapSheet) September 27, 2013
McDonald, a rookie third-round draft pick out of USC, appeared to run into defensive end Gerald Rivers at the end of a 3-yard run by the 49ers' Frank Gore in the third quarter.
Rams cornerback Cortland Finnegan sustained a thigh injury in the second quarter and his return was doubtful. Finnegan was hurt covering Anquan Boldin on a 20-yard touchdown pass from Colin Kaepernick 6:20 before halftime.


text: In recent weeks we have seen gas prices in our area jump from $3.00 a gallon to as high as $3.40. It is important to make every drop of precious liquid count, but how you know if you are getting what you paid for? When you pull up to a gas station what is the first thing you look at on the pump? Although many of us look at the price we're paying, we should be looking at the inspection sticker. Gas Pumps are annually inspected to check that the scales inside are at the correct calibration."They block off one pump at a time, they have cans that have exact measurements on them and they pump a certain amount of fuel and if the tolerance isn't there they just bag that pump off," said Don's Car Wash Vice President Dan Durr. If a pump is bagged off, that means it needs to be repaired. State inspections stickers are green and other registered service companies that inspect gas stations will be white or yellow. If a pump has a red sticker, it should be not used. If a non-calibrated pump is used, you likely wouldn't even notice, because most times, it falls in favor of the consumer.The Public Service Commission advises that although every one should look to make sure the stickers are not expired those who live in rural areas should be extra cautious. "In the rural areas often times those pumps may get overlooked a little, so our inspectors try to get out there and make sure they do what their suppose to do, but that would be the area if you don't see something right, you call the public service commission," said Public Service Commissioner, Brian Kalk. The Public Service Commission oversees the inspections of the pumps and also keeps tabs on the companies doing the inspections.

How to Make the Best Lasagna Recipe

Click here to view your Recipe Box.
Ever find yourself wondering how to make the best lasagna recipe? If the thought of making the best lasagna recipe might seem a daunting task and a bit intimidating, rest easy in the fact that there are plenty of easy lasagna recipes to choose from and get started.
This handy guide shows you how easy and how much fun it can be to make the best lasagna recipe. It's even more fun when getting children involved, so if you have or know any kidlets who enjoy spending time with in the kitchen, be sure to get them involved too. This "how to make the best lasagna recipe" guide was developed with a 3 1/2-year old helping out in the kitchen, so it promises to be easy to follow and informative.
The first step in learning how to make the best lasagna recipe is to locate your favorite among the easy lasagna recipes out there. We used the fantastic Mangia la Lasagna recipe here on RecipeLion, courtesy of The Handstand Kids Cookbook Company. If possible, start out by putting your child (or the one you borrowed for the occasion) in a cute apron and chef's hat. It just adds to the fun and ambience!
Once you have made your shopping list and ensured all necessary ingredients are in your home, you can begin getting them together. For Mangia la Lasagna, you will need the following:
Note: This chef's recommendation is to use one box of frozen chopped spinach. Let it thaw on the counter at room temperature for 3-4 hours. Take a large colander and place in the kitchen sink, lining it with 1 or 2 paper towels. Dump the thawed, wet spinach onto the paper towels and fold them over, making a little pouch. If using a child helper, have him get up on a step stool and press down with all his might to squeeze as much water as possible out of the spinach. He can also pick up the paper-towel enclosed spinace and squeeze it with both hands over the colander. The spinach is now ready to be used in step 2 of the instructions below.
So, now you know how to make the best lasagna recipe. Fantastic! Serve it with a bag o'salad (or other veggies) and some store-bought garlic bread and you're all set. Mangia and enjoy!
* If you really want to make this the absolute best lasagna recipe, you can make your own homemade marinara or meat sauce to use in it. Our developers used a homemade meat sauce that was so delicious, it almost got eaten up before it could be used to make the best lasagna recipe here. Watch out for that!

What the Stars Say about the Next Doctor
With rumours running amok, we thought you might like to get a good summary of who has said what lately concerning the role of the Twelfth Doctor.
One of the early names thrown into the ring and then swiftly, and rather wittily, tossed straight back out again was Stephen Mangan (Dirk Gently) who posted a photo of himself:
Who are you? pic.twitter.com/QrQegn71JH
— Stephen Mangan (@StephenMangan) June 1, 2013
He then tweeted
Can't wait to start work as the new Doctor on Thursday.
— Stephen Mangan (@StephenMangan) June 2, 2013
…which was immediately followed by 'Seriously – I'm not the new Doctor Who. I don't know where these rumours start' [er, with you by the look of things, Stephen! - Ed].
One RTD endorsed name that quickly scorched rumours he was about to jump on board the TARDIS was Russell Tovey (Being Human), who joined in the fun on Twitter that faithful Sunday with:
Sad to hear of Matt Smith's doctor departure, he truly is a superb actor and made the Doc proper.. Who's next tho eh? Who's next.. Hmmm x
— russell tovey (@russelltovey) June 2, 2013
'Hmmm' indeed but that 'hmmm' would only last four days where Russell used the international language of 'Knock, Knock' jokes to declare himself out of the running that he probably was never in to begin with:
Doctor doctor? Who's there? Russell Tovey? Russell Tovey, Isn't he gonna be the new twelfth Doctor Who? No x :-)
— russell tovey (@russelltovey) June 5, 2013
Sensing a distinct lack of British eccentricity in the hunt to fill the country's most eccentric role Absolute Radio's Christian O'Connell (via The Independent) took it upon himself to ask Russell Brand (Forgetting Sarah Marshall) to fill this hole (said the actress to the bishop); to which he replied in the affirmative:
Yeah, I'd love to be him, I'd be like a Tom Baker one, like a sort of long scarf, flouncy, wistful, quoting occasional poems, kicking Cybermen in the nuts. This is what the country needs.
I would just travel through time pinching people's a***s. Carry on up the worm hole. Like quantum physics, so that is actually perfect. No, we can't have that in the Tardis, 'ere it's a lot bigger on the inside.
Taking up the smutty baton from Brand, Matthew Rhys (The Americans) stumbled Doctor alike onto the Planet of Unintended Innuendo during an interview with BBC Radio 5 Live's Richard Bacon:
I don't think I could pull off Doctor Who – especially after what Matt has done with it.
Behave, missus.
Someone else who would actually love to pull off the Doctor, thank you very much is Samuel West (Mr Selfridge, Dimensions in Time) – who knowing his way around a quote or two told the Radio Times:
I've always wanted to play Doctor Who. Hamlet and Doctor Who – and I've done Hamlet.
Seeking to buck the trend of younger and younger actors taking on the role of the Doctor West wants to bring back the essential 'otherness' to the deeply alien Doctor:
I think he should be slightly other. I remember when I first started watching it he was a little bit like a frightening grandfather and I don't want to be a grandfather but I don't think he should be cuddly. 'Other' is the word, he should be a bit 'other'.
And with love comes denial; for why he may love the show, he cannot be a part of it. This is the plight of Domhnall Gleeson (Dredd), a man who despite receiving the nod for the role from Starburst Magazine along with Dominic Cooper (The History Boys) and Daniel Kaluuya (Black Mirror), can't even get his own agent to take it seriously.
Speaking to RTÉ TEN Domhnall said:
There's nothing to [it…I heard about it from my agent [who] sent me a website, [and was] laughing about the fact that people were saying that I was being talked about. I was like, 'That's lovely: my own agent is laughing at the idea!'
So, it's not true and there's nothing you can do about people just spouting a whole load of s**te on the internet!
He's on to me! Shut it down!
And now, with everybody that little bit clearer and with only one obvious choice left to fill the role (seriously, you've not guessed it?) it was left to Neil Gaiman to restore a semblance of calm to proceedings with this post on his Tumblr page:
I want to be taken by surprise. I want to squint at a photo of the person online and go "but how can that be The Doctor? Then I want to be amazingly, delightedly, completely proven wrong, and, six episodes in, I want to wonder how I could have been so blind. Because this is the Doctor. Of course it is.
So there we have it. Normalcy is restored…
You'll never guess who I heard has been linked to the role!! Seriously!! Exclamation marks!!
8 Responses to What the Stars Say about the Next Doctor
Nice round up of the non-Rory Kinnear names. It will probably turn out to be one of these – most likely one who says they are definitely not in the running!
Personally, given his interest, of this list I'd go for Sam West – he has long stated his desire to play the role and is a very good actor – what more do we need?
When I saw the headline I thought Russel Grant was going to give us a premonition…
I'm surprised The Daily Star hasn't had Mystic Meg to make a prediction!
I hate that Stephen Mangan has said he's out. He's my #1 pick. I would love to see him take to it.
Unless it's misdirection…
He is, however, just about to start a west end run as Bertie Wooster, so is likely to be preoccupied with that (ironically a part played by Hugh Laurie on TV). Stage plays require focus, so unless he's already been cast I can't see him in negotiation with the BBC at the same time.
Notice that yet again, even after eight years of nu who, he still uses a long scarf to indicate the show…
Why was the word shite censored? That word only exists because it's a safe way of saying the four-letter version.
I think you'll find that most people consider shite as a curse word, no better or worse than the four letter version….

"First of all, I'd like to thank 'H20Fidelity' who recommended this IEM to me. I was not sure whether to go for this brand as i did not hear of it before. but thought of givin' them a try. Got it under 40USD. I had Sennheiser Precision 300-II before these and I liked them. The intention to purchase an IEM that was like Senn Precision 300-II was to have a pair of headphones that are just fun to..." --akshayshah12
Shure E4c-n Sound Isolating Earphones (Black)
" I like this phone so much I am onto my second pair. Are they perfect? No. Are they the best IEM for the price? Unless you get them at $79 like I did the second time, no. Do they have a good soundstage? Not really. Are they durable? Like a boat made of paper. But...Do they isolate well? With the Shure olives, hell yes. Do they have delicous, buttery mids that I could and have listened to..." --paddy567
Shure E2c Sound Isolating Earphones
" These things hurt my ear canal too easily unless I use the orange foam inserts, but they get gross and deform a little too easily. Anyway, the sound on these was good enough for me to realize that my iPod had a pretty constant hiss. They also made it apparant that I could only listen with EQ off or the signal would clip. I never listen to these things with the volume up. I'm a..." --funkmeister
Shure SE110 Sound Isolating Earphone with Balanced Armature Driver (Black)
" As many know these are a nice upgrade and quite price conscience. I do like the accessory pack and methods of lengthening the cable. I use them while flying and usually wear them the entire flight (even for 20+ hours) due to their good sound isolation. If used on a plane should get a sound attenuating patch cord adapter as these are very sensitive. They are superb compared to the inflight..." --smurphy522
Soundmagic PL11
"Build Quality: Not much to say than a solid IEM. The outside is "gunmetal" it looks like metal and feels like metal, but then again. I have been fooled before. The clip ...is just a clip, no deficiencies or poor moving around from it. The L shaped 3.5mm jack is also good. No weird wiggling parts, feels and looks solid. As it's an earphone, this section is generally good. The tip of the earphone..." --bowei006
SoundMAGIC ES18 In-Ear Headphones (Black/Red)
"So this is my first ever review. Enjoy! I got my es18's for about $15 in my local store on December last year and I've been enjoying them since. SO let's start! PACKAGING AND ACCESSORIES: Packaging is pretty decent for a $15 IEM. It includes 3 eartip sizes(small, medium and large) and a leather-ish carrying pouch that's a..." --TheAstray
