Will Witherspoon is a multilinguist. In addition to English he also speaks German fluently and is working on Arabic and Swedish. He is also multi talented.
Growing up in a military family Witherspoon picked the game of football up in high school and was a 3 year starter for the University of Georgia Bulldogs before he was drafted by the Panthers in the third round of the 2002 NFL Draft.
Witherspoon took advantage of his opportunities when middle linebacker Dan Morgan went down with injuries in both of Witherspoon's first two seasons.
In his second season he was the only linebacker on the Panthers roster who started every game. In Superbowl XXXVVII he totaled 16 tackles!!!!!!!
Witherspoon got paid by the Rams in 2006 when he signed a 6 year 33 million dollar contract. The established former Panther did not dissappoint in his first year, earning team MVP in 2007.
Eventually he was traded to the Eagles who released him in March of this year. That's when Jeff Fisher and Mike Reinfeldt decided they would sign the veteran just four days after he was released.
This is a smart guy who knows what it's like to be on a winning team in the NFL. A tackle machine against the run, Witherspoon has good change of direction speed making him a good cover linebacker as well. When blitzing he has been known to get to the quarterback and strip the ball away on multiple instances.
Bottom line is Witherspoon is gonna make plays this year and it will be very interesting depending upon how the Titans draft how Chuck Cecil is gonna use this the 9 year veteran.
Will Witherspoon is a multilinguist. In addition to English he also speaks German fluently and is working on Arabic and Swedish. He is also multi talented.

FLOWERY BRANCH – While the Falcons continue to stress that they'll be a multiple defensive team, the spent a great deal of time working on their 3-4 alignment during the first open OTA session on Wednesday.
Also, cornerback Desmond Trufant has been switched to left cornerback and Robert Alford lined up at right cornerback. Last season, Asante Samuel played left cornerback before Alford finished the season as the starter.
Generally, the defense appeared ahead of the offense, which is normal for this juncture of the offseason.

After last season's sham of a defense left the Bears out of the playoffs, many fans were angry. They felt that the cause of the defense's downfall was mainly on defensive coordinator Mel Tucker.
Calls for Tucker's firing were at their loudest almost as soon as Aaron Rodgers' touchdown pass to Randall Cobb was completed. Many argued that someone who coached at Jacksonville had no business being handed the keys to a sports car like the traditional Bears defense.
The Bears decided to keep Tucker and give him another chance. "I think that Mel certainly gathered a lot of information about our football players that are with us now," coach Marc Trestman said. "I think he feels very good about the coaches we have surrounded him with to help him to his job. And I think he'll utilize certainly what he learned about our team and the relationships he's developed with our players and our coaches to move forward."
Tucker did make his mistakes. His fatal mistake, however, was to bow down to the players, who were still loyal to former head coach Lovie Smith and his Cover-2 defense. The players wanted to continue to run that defense. Why fix something that was not broken was their reasoning.
True, the Bears defense was a top five defense and was setting records for turnovers and scoring. At times it appeared the defense had a better chance to score than the offense.
A lot of the players on that defense were aging, however, and with age comes injury risks. The older players were a step slower, and using the same schemes was not the move to make. We all saw the results.
This season, things are different. The Bears went out and completely overhauled the defense. In came Jared Allen, Lamarr Houston, Willie Young, Ego Ferguson, Will Sutton, Adrian Wilson, Brock Vereen and Kyle Fuller. The defense is younger, more athletic and deeper than last season.
The defensive scheme is different as well. The Bears will now use a hybrid defense. There will be a lot more options than before. They will use a 4-3 defense most of the time, but they will mix in different alignments and use some 3-4 as well.
With Tucker using his own system now, he has a chance to put his stamp on the Bears defense. It is no longer Lovie Smith's defense, it is Mel Tucker's defense. Tucker wants to hear none of that, however.
"It's a 'we' thing," he said to reporters on Sunday. "It's not my stamp or any particular coach's stamp or any particular player. It's our brand of football, which is best condition, technique of fundamentals, smart, fast and physical. That's what we need to be."
Mel Tucker may want to deflect his part in running the new-look defense, but the fans and critics will now be justified in their blame of him if the defense stutters once again.

All Falls Down Lyrics - Machine Head
Anticipating, salivating, intoxicating
How I've been waiting
To gently soak in
Your dream that's broken
Caress my hands
Around your throat
When I choke the last gasp of air out of you
I'll mesmerize you, hypnotize you
Paralyze you, my snake eyes blind you
My gentle tickle, my tender prickle
The back of your neck
I stab icicles
My sweetest grin will pull you in
Behind that grin a razor teeth smile
Under your bed
Inside your head
sponsored linksI am the monster in wait
Walk, run
I'm the fear you've become
Pray, hope
Before it's your
Downfall, it all falls down
I patronize you, victimize you
My false pretenses endear me to you
I'm psychopathic, psychosomatic
Believe everything you've heard about me
Ate you alive since you were a child
That's when the monster first appeared in you
So know my name
What is my name?
My name is fear and I'm you
Walk, run
I'm the fear you've become
Pray, hope
Before it's your
Downfall, it all falls down
With faith I crawl
In sadness, I fear what I've become
'Cause after all
I'm acting, pretend my smile on
Before the fall
The pain washes over
Hold on, hold on
Walk, run
I'm the fear you've become
Fight now
Before it's your
Downfall, it all falls down

San Antonio Spurs 104, Miami Heat 87
Recap | Box Score
LeBron James: A
10-21 FG (3-9 3FG), 8-9 FT, 10 rebounds, 5 assists, 2 blocks, 1 turnover, 31 points
LeBron James said "follow my lead" before the game, but he was going too fast for the rest of his crew. He barely rested until the Heat conceded the game and the season with just a few minutes left. Again, it was LeBron initiating the offense, shouldering the scoring load and guarding 1-5 on defense. He needed help and didn't get it.
Dwyane Wade: C
4-12 FG (1-2 3FG), 2-4 FT, 3 rebounds, 1 assist, 3 turnovers, 11 points
Wade's maintenance program had him going strong until these NBA Finals. There is no doubt that it helped the Heat get this far, but he just isn't a No. 2 scorer at this point in his career, this late in the season.
Chris Bosh: C
6-14 FG (0-5 3FG), 7 rebounds, 2 assists, 13 points
Bosh was aggressive on a few drives to the basket and played good defense, per usual. But Bosh had a hard time getting the ball to fall tonight, going 0-for from three-point range. His game-winning predication before the game did not come to fruition, and the Heat's season came to an end.
Miami Heat: C-
Miami came out to a 22-6 lead but relinquished it on their way to getting dominated for the third straight game in these NBA Finals. It's clear that the San Antonio Spurs were just a better team, and that these Miami Heat just didn't have enough in the tank after four-straight Finals appearances. This team faces a lot of questions in the offseason; most of all, figuring how to build a new supporting cast around LeBron.

Installing distros from an external hard drive
- 06-13-2009 #2
Everything is possible in Linux, but not easy.
Doing that would be little complicated.
There are only few distros which allows installation from repository tree on local disk, but not the ISO.
Instead of that you can create a bootable pendrive from ISO
and Install it from USB drive.Never make any misteaks.

I got it! Thanks rokytnji. I loaded the ISO from my external hard drive into Unebootin, rebooted, and it ran perfectly. No DVD's or CD's to burn, but I had to do this one by one.

Daily Light on the Daily Path - January 8
January 8
They that know thy name will put their trust in thee: for thou, Lord, hast not forsaken them that seek thee.
The name of the LORD is a strong tower: the righteous runneth into it, and is safe. — I will trust, and not be afraid: for the LORD JEHOVAH is my strength and my song; he also is become my salvation.
I have been young, and now am old; yet have I not seen the righteous forsaken, nor his seed begging bread. — For the LORD loveth judgment, and forsaketh not his saints, they are preserved for ever: but the seed of the wicked shall be cut off. — The LORD will not forsake his people for his great name's sake: because it hath pleased the LORD to make you his people. — Who delivered us from so great a death, and doth deliver: in whom we trust that he will yet deliver us.
Be content with such things as ye have: for he hath said, I will never leave thee, nor forsake thee. So that we may boldly say, The Lord is my helper, I will not fear what man shall do unto me.
PSA. 9:10. Prov. 18:10. Isa. 12:2. Psa. 37:25. Psa. 37:28. I Sam. 12:22. II Cor. 1:10. Heb. 13:5,6.
They are without fault before the throne of God.
The iniquity of Israel shall be sought for, and there shall be none; and the sins of Judah, and they shall not be found: for I will pardon them whom I reserve. — Who is a God like unto thee, that pardoneth iniquity, and passeth by the transgression of the remnant of his heritage? he retaineth not his anger forever, because he delighteth in mercy. He will turn again, he will have compassion upon us; he will subdue our iniquities; and thou wilt cast all their sins into the depths of the sea.
He hath made us accepted in the beloved. — To present you holy and unblameable and unreproveable in his sight.
Now unto him that is able to keep you from falling, and to present you faultless before the presence of his glory with exceeding joy, to the only wise God our Saviour, be glory and majesty, dominion and power, both now and ever. Amen.

text: Just got home today after a less than auspicious trip to Pennsic. due to unpleasant circumstances, I didn't get to attend a single class. What a bummer, as the class offerings were tremendous! Anyway, apparently there was a class on CROCHET, and this was interesting since the powers that be, bassed upn Paludan's research had determined that crochet as we know it was NOT "in period" e.g. prior to 1600. Supposedly the presenter of the class at Pennsic provided signification documentation to support crochet as early as the 9th C. I'll be contacting Alys Kathryn (who did such a splendid job of managing the A&S classes) to see about getting ahold of the teacher and the docs. Did any of you get to the class, or are you familiar with the documentation? Seems just when we've settled into accepting something, our cages get rattled with something new to challenge or recently adjusted paradygms. Yeesh! ' Meanwhile, my current challenge is climbing Mt. St. Laundry from 8 days of very dirty camping in garb, plowing through the mail, and getting that 1890s copy wedding dress finished off by Labor Day Weekend!

that cocoa your using is special dark which is VERY diffrent than regular cocoa im a chocaholic i know why not use real garlic instead of powder ? same goes for the onion. you can simmer them both in the bacon grease. im sure you'll notice the diffrence.For me nothing beats pork or beef for flavor,the fat is the key to the flavor.browned ground beef or bulf pork sausage. Turkey dont cut it because like you said it has a bland flavor/no fat to it.paste goes a long way and you dont need 2 cans IMHO have you tried the tube type paste? whats nice about that is you squeeze out what you need and can safely store the rest in the fridge for a long time.One last thought why are you suing flavored tomatoe sauces and then adding the same spices?such as oregano bay leaf these are in the italian style tomatoes . Just some thoughts/suggestions not an attack or anything like that
If i told ya all that went down,it would burn off both your ears

Earnings Preview: Lilly looks to rebound from recent patent expirations
Eli Lilly and Company (LLY) is scheduled to report third quarter earnings before the market open on Thursday, October 23 with a conference call scheduled for 9:00 am ET.

Lilly's CEO John Lechleiter commented on the quarter, "Lilly's second-quarter results reflect a substantial decline in revenue and earnings resulting from recent patent expirations. At the same time, new product approvals and impending launches give us great confidence that Lilly is poised for growth in the years ahead. We have stayed the course with our innovation-based strategy, replenishing and advancing our pipeline. We remain firm in our commitment to sustain and accelerate a flow of important new medicines that make life better for people around the world."

Lilly to close Guayama facility, will take 16c charge in Q4
Eli Lilly announced plans to conclude production and pursue a sale of one of its three manufacturing plants in Puerto Rico. The manufacturing site, located in Guayama, Puerto Rico, will remain in operation until the end of 2015. All of the approximately 100 full-time non-contracted employees currently working in Guayama will be offered employment at Lilly's Carolina, Puerto Rico, location. As a result of this action, the company expects to record a charge of approximately $170M or approximately 16c per share, after tax, in Q414. While Lilly will initiate efforts to sell the Guayama site, the company will continue to invest in two manufacturing plants at Carolina. In November 2013, Lilly announced a $200M investment to increase capacity in its Carolina-based insulin active ingredient manufacturing plant. In July, Lilly announced an additional $40M in investments to increase capabilities at its Carolina-based drug product site as part of a rebalancing of Lilly's oral solid dosage network.

Information 213.972.8001
LA Opera is honored to partner with numerous schools each year to provide an array of performances, programs and services that enrich K-6 education. In-school workshops, assemblies and special demonstration matinee performances both in the community and at our home in the Dorothy Chandler Pavilion, introduce children to the wonderful stories and stirring music of opera. For many schools, LA Opera's programs have become essential, as public resources and school budgets for arts and culture have dramatically decreased. Each of LA Opera's Elementary School programs supports California Department of Education educational standards in the arts, social studies and the language arts. LA Opera seeks to share a love and knowledge of opera with our youngest community members, and thereby set them on a life-long engagement with and delight in opera and the arts.
Students will participate in a professional opera experience with sets, lighting and a stage crew provided by LA Opera when they perform for the school alongside our professional artists. Through engaging and lively weekly workshops, your students will learn their roles as chorus members in The Marriage of Figueroa, a charming opera by Eli and LeRoy Villanueva based on Mozart's The Marriage of Figaro.
The Marriage of Figueroa takes place in historic Upper-California at the fictional Mission, Aguas Frescas where everyone is preparing for the wedding of Governor Jose Figueroa. Governor Figueroa enters and proclaims that he will take their beloved Mission and make it his own home and the campesinos are expected to fix it up for him…for free! The campesinos use Mozart's opera, The Marriage of Figaro, to show the Governor the error of his selfish ways. The opera within this opera reveals the truth about Figueroa's greed, and through Mozart's music the townspeople help him realizes that stealing doesn't pay, restoring joy and harmony to the town.
Teachers will find opportunities to integrate this opera into curriculum studies of California history, geography and more.

He was given another bait question, when he was asked whether or not there are guys not cut out to be starters. To Rex's credit, he did not take the bait. He instead responded this way:
Well, I don't know. Look at basketball players. There are some guys that are better as the sixth man in basketball than they are as the starting guys. (They are) more valuable to you. I look at what Wayne can do for this football team, it's very valuable. When you can plug a guy in all across the line and as a tight end, all of a sudden now, we are a ground-and-pound type mentality. When that big guy comes in there at tight end, everybody in the ball park's going to think we're going to run. We don't have to run. You can put him in as the sixth man in protection. And you can not disappoint them, you can run behind him. So, I think there's a lot of that. I remember going against Mark Bruener from Pittsburgh all those years as a coach. He was a tremendous blocking tight end. Somebody said, "Oh, he's a tackle over there." That gave me an idea then that, you know what? He is a big tackle over there and they could still run the football with the best of them and hopefully that's where we'll be as well.
He had the chance to say, "Yes, some guys aren't starters, they are bench players." But coach didn't do that. He instead talked about what Wayne Hunter can add to the team as a sixth offensive lineman, and as a blocking tight end.
This is how you motivate players to be at their best. Rex Ryan handled this situation in the best way possible yesterday. He doesn't often get credit for the way he handles his players, but he should.
Rex Ryan handled the situation perfectly. And that is why his guys love to play for him.

Certainly virtual memory behaviour can cause surprises, there can also be surprises where one processor happens to optimise some XPath construct and another processor doesn't. The only case I found where Saxon runs substantially (i.e. five times) faster than xt is a stylesheet (my knight's tour) that makes significant use of format-number(): and then only with the Microsoft Java VM, because it turns out xt uses an underlying Java class that is much less efficient in Microsoft Java than in Sun Java.

Medical research studies are conducted to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of an investigational drug. These research studies are also called clinical trials. Once an investigational drug has been proven safe and effective in clinical trials, FDA may approve the drug for sale in the United States.
Dexelvucitabine is an investigational drug that has been studied for the treatment of HIV infection.
Dexelvucitabine belongs to a class (group) of HIV drugs called nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NRTIs).2 NRTIs block an HIV enzyme called reverse transcriptase. (An enzyme is a protein that starts or increases the speed of a chemical reaction.) By blocking reverse transcriptase, NRTIs prevent HIV from multiplying and can reduce the amount of HIV in the body.
Dexelvucitabine is a prodrug, which means that it is an inactive drug. Once taken, a prodrug does not work until the body converts it into an active form. In the body, dexelvucitabine is converted to DFC-5′-triphosphate (DFC-TP).5,6
In vitro studies have shown that dexelvucitabine may be effective against strains of HIV that are no longer affected by other NRTIs. (In vitro studies are studies done in test tubes or other laboratory equipment and not on animals or humans).5
Clinical trials are conducted in phases. Each phase has a different purpose and helps researchers answer different questions.7
In most cases, an investigational drug must be proven safe and effective in a Phase III clinical trial to be considered for approval by the FDA for sale in the United States. Some drugs go through the FDA's accelerated approval process and are approved before a Phase III clinical trial is complete. After a drug is approved by the FDA and made available to the public, researchers track its safety in Phase IV trials to seek more information about the drug's risks, benefits, and optimal use. 7
Dexelvucitabine has been studied in Phase II clinical trials.2
The clinical development of dexelvucitabine for the treatment of HIV infection was discontinued in April 2006 because of side effects.2,4
In a Phase IIb study (known as Study 203), three different strengths of dexelvucitabine taken once daily were compared with placebo (an inactive drug that is identical in appearance to the active drug being studied). The study included HIV-infected participants who were already taking HIV medicines before entering the study (treatment-experienced). Participants had HIV mutations associated with drug resistance at the time they entered the study. For the first 2 weeks of the study, dexelvucitabine or placebo was added to a participant's previous antiretroviral (ARV) therapy regimen. After 2 weeks, participants continued either dexelvucitabine or placebo and then also began an optimized background regimen. (An optimized background regimen is a combination of drugs, chosen on the basis of a person's resistance test results and treatment history, that are not being studied as the investigational drug[s] in the clinical trial, but are given to help control a participant's HIV infection.) During the final 8 weeks of the study, participants who had been receiving placebo were allowed to take dexelvucitabine.8,9
In this study, dexelvucitabine taken at the highest dose reduced viral load. (Viral load is the amount of HIV in the blood.) The study also found that treatment with the highest dose of dexelvucitabine and without the FDA-approved NRTIs lamivudine (brand name: Epivir) or emtricitabine (brand name: Emtriva) was more effective in reducing viral load than treatment with placebo. However, some participants taking dexelvucitabine did develop severe hyperlipasemia, which is high levels of lipase (a protein released by the pancreas) and which may indicate a problem with the pancreas. The majority of participants who had severe hyperlipasemia were also taking the FDA-approved NRTI didanosine (brand name: Videx). Pancreatitis (inflammation of the pancreas) also occurred in several participants.8,9
In a long-term extension of the study described above, dexelvucitabine taken at the two higher doses was further examined. During this study (known as Study 901), it became apparent that too many severe cases of hyperlipasemia were occurring in participants taking dexelvucitabine at the highest dose. Because of this safety issue, study investigators decided to stop the clinical development of dexelvucitabine for the treatment of HIV infection.4
In the Phase IIb study (Study 203) discussed under the previous question, most side effects were generally mild and included headache, fatigue, and gastrointestinal disorders. However, some participants (many of whom were also taking didanosine) developed severe hyperlipasemia and pancreatitis.8
Severe hyperlipasemia was also reported in Study 901, the long-term extension of Study 203.4
Information on possible side effects of the drug is not complete. If testing of dexelvucitabine continues, additional information on possible side effects will be gathered.
More information about dexelvucitabine-related research studies is available from the AIDSinfo database of ClinicalTrials.gov study summaries. Click on the title of any trial in the list to see the ClinicalTrials.gov trial summary and more information about the study.
Participating in a clinical trial can provide benefits. For example, a volunteer participant can benefit from new research treatments before they are widely available. Participants also receive regular and careful medical attention from a research team that includes doctors and other health professionals. However, clinical trials may also involve risks of varying degrees, such as unpleasant, serious, or even life-threatening side effects from the treatment being studied.7
Your health care provider can help you decide whether participating in a clinical trial is right for you. For more information, visit NIH Clinical Research Trials and You.

Best Decision I Could Have Made - Bellevue, WA
I chose Dr. Naficy based on his experience and reputation, previous patient reviews, and the level of attention I received when dealing with him and his Staff. I felt at ease with Dr. Naficy after my first appointment. From the moment I contacted Dr. Naficy's office, I was pleased with the level of service I was given. Dr. Naficy's Staff are courteous, professional, and always a pleasure to work with. Dr. Naficy took time to answer all my questions and address my concerns. I felt confident and comfortable before the procedure took place and the Staff could not have been more caring. Dr. Naficy transformed my nose into a beautiful, more feminine nose and I couldn't be more happy with the results. Choosing Dr. Naficy was the best decision I could have made!

I'm not angry at you.. I'm just angry that we've fucked this shit up. How can you explain the immense love that you have for someone when the hatred now runs as deep? No matter how hard we try, I'm no longer yours, just as you're not mine. We've grown a distance between us as wide-reaching as that which we loathed when we loved, thousands of miles apart. Goodbye my sweet old friend, may these words give me the strength to let you go.
To love.. And it's infinite, heart-breaking possibilities..
You gave me pride, you taught me reason. You saw me through the eyes of a dumbstruck, smitten on-looker, teetering on the edge of danger and the unknown; flirting with the possibility of a long, volatile future. My carelessness and shallow acceptance of your unconditional desire saw me hurt you in ways I'm now being hurt myself. I cruelly rejected you, the man I loved most. The man I never really loved at all. I abused you. I violated you. And what remains is a few uncertain, lonely tears and memories that I'm ashamed to own. We lived unstably in an exhilarating bubble. We lived with an eminent, lingering deadline, the reason behind our intense and oppressive treatment of one another. I've learnt to love again, but I've missed a few lessons. We fucked up, and some wounds never heal. Forgive me.

the penultimate tune for nostalgia. brings tears to my eyes. "breathe out, so i can breathe you in, hold you in." takes me to a time i barely remember. i don't remember. but dave grohl's genuine, wounded emotion takes me there.

This is Why We Test Products First August 21 2014, 0 Comments
We were super excited about the idea of colored glassware, so we decided to test some new products out. Unfortunately, glasses and ceramic mugs with a colorful sublimated coating weren't even close to being durable enough for our standards. The color started peeling off when our stencils were being washed off. And the few samples that didn't peel during washing started to flake off after a few weeks through the dishwasher.
This was really disappointing to us, because it could have meant all kinds of possible new products. But it's good that we tested first, because these would have been terrible! Beware glassware with sublimated color coatings instead of real colored glass.
Remember that we always test our products thoroughly before we put them up for sale because we only want to offer the highest quality gifts that really will last a lifetime.
Have a product idea you think we should test out? Let us know! Leave a comment or send us a message.

Customer Story #4: Cheering up a pirate-loving friend August 13 2014, 0 Comments
Probably the biggest joy in my work is getting to hear how something I've made is touching the life of someone else. When it's being used as a gift to cheer someone up, my heart expands. Here's one pirate-lover's story:
I have a friend who has had some very tough times this past year. I decided that a weekend trip to the beach would cheer him up. Since we have adopted pirate themes over the years, I wanted to do the same with this weekend. I found your pirate mugs online and ordered the navy blue for him and lighter blue for me. He loved his pirate mug and we used both all weekend. When it came time to leave, I gave him my mug to take home to use for my visits and other guests. The smile on his face and the lift to his heart as well as mine were priceless. I cannot thank you enough for getting them to me so quickly. The quality of the work is fabulous. Arrrrrgh!
It's obvious to me that you enjoy your work and have the kind of heart it takes to do well. I also like to designate a hero for the day when someone goes the extra mile for me in some way or fashion. You definitely made hero status this weekend by your quality work and kind demeanor. I'm thinking of ordering some more mugs etc. so you haven't heard the last of me. I will give you the highest review I can so that others can enjoy the same delight of the pirate life.
Glenna is one of those people who has made my day every time we've chatted via email. She placed two separate orders for the two mugs she wanted, so I combined them to save her a bunch on shipping costs. She didn't even expect a refund, which makes her an exceptional customer (though, of course, I sent one anyway!).

Unicorn Skateboarder FACTS March 13 2014, 0 Comments
The Celts (and Bread and Badger) believe the majestic Unicorn to be a symbol of grace, purity, of healing and of utter radness. Less is known of the Celts' thoughts on the common unicorn practice of riding skateboards...
Many contemporary unicorn enthusiasts believe that the unicorn can fly. They cannot, that is the true myth (nor do they require protective headgear. Fact: Unicorns never, ever wreck.)
These fantastical creatures prefer to keep it real and take it to the streets even though their magical splendor knows no limits. In fact, our newest design has shredded right out of your dreams and onto your glassware. Behold! Rumored to make all of your drinks taste like heaven. Shop now!
Fewer Products, Better Choices February 03 2014, 0 Comments
Staying in line with the idea that we'd like our products to be packaged smartly and sustainably, we're having to make some tough calls about what we keep in stock. Our home studio is running out of storage space, and we can't afford custom-made boxes for everything we currently offer. This brings us to a few big decisions we've had to make for 2014:
- We're only going to keep pint glasses, mugs, travel mugs and rocks glasses in stock.
- We need to move into a warehouse.
Don't panic! You'll still be able to request any of our other items with any of our designs on them. It will just take us a little time to get them through our production process. Currently, it takes 2-3 weeks for us to ship out custom requests, but we're working on ways to make that faster. I'm already working on ways to make custom orders easier to purchase.
By keeping only our top-selling cups in stock, it's going to allow us to offer a lot more designs, which is super exciting! It also means we'll be able to focus more attention on wholesale accounts, so that you'll be able to buy our products in your neck of the woods without paying for shipping. Win-win, right?
We're looking into getting a warehouse by this summer so we'll have more room to work and store our wares. Sometime after we settle in, we'll be able to introduce more cup styles again. I can't even tell you some of the secret things we have planned, but they are awesome. Tell us what you think in the comments below!

New Designs, New Packaging! January 31 2014, 0 Comments
We're thrilled to be charging into the new year! A skateboarding unicorn is already in production, with an historic WWII airplane, and lots of furry and feathered critters on their way soon. We're even planning to bring a few older designs back out from retirement.
If you order pint glasses, travel mugs, or handled mugs from us, they'll also be packaged in our awesome new boxes! These boxes were a huge hit over the holidays, and helped make gift wrapping super easy.
Not only do they help us share our story of how these products came to be, but they also eliminate the use of bubble wrap. We can't wait until we have locally-made cardboard boxes for all our products!

Whatever your date night beverage of choice is, it's sure to pair nicely with our sturdy glassware. We just restocked our champagne flutes and wine glasses, so you can choose the perfect design to match your sweetie's personality.
If you're the clumsy type (like me!), then perhaps stemless is safer. Our round rocks glasses are heavy-bottomed (also, like me--HEY-O), and are perfect for sipping wine, whiskey or cocktails. I seem to drink absolutely everything out of mine these days.

This has been a really exciting couple of weeks for us what with our most successful year ever at Urban Craft Uprising and our lil' cameo in Forbes and to that, we have a brand new look with imaging designed by our very own Amanda!
The new cardboard boxes are recyclable and locally produced, easily wrappable if you're into those perfect origami corners and if not, slap a bow on that baby and call it good! No more bubble wrap! No more tissue paper! Plus, our contact information is right there and so are our mugs! Right next to your new mug...Right...

HUGE SALE - Black Friday thru Cyber Monday November 25 2013, 0 Comments
Let's just agree that pants are a hassle. So why choose to wear them the very day after our biggest eating holiday? In fact, why be party to any standard hygiene practices on a day that is clearly meant for laziness? Let's make a pact not to trample one another over cheap socks, or brush our hair or teeth (maybe brush our teeth) and shop from home on Black Friday!Black Friday through Cyber Monday (Nov 29-Dec 2), we will be offering Buy 3, Get One Free on all our products. You can clear out your whole holiday shopping list with ease from the comfort of your goldfish boxers. We think you will find us a very welcoming, non-judgmental bunch over at Bread and Badger.
The least expensive item will be considered the free one in every set, so look at it like this: if you decide on rocks glasses at $18 each, you are basically getting 4 of them for $13.50 each! The same deal for mugs would make them $18.75 each! Buying bulk is your buddy during this event.
Great for host gifts, White Elephant, Secret Santa... All the hard to shop for people on your list use cups. All of the easy to shop for people too! Stock up now!
How it works:
Simply purchase any 3 items, and leave us a note during checkout for your 4th FREE item request. The 4th item must be of equal or lesser value to the other items in your order, or we'll recalculate your total and invoice you for the difference. If the item you've requested for your freebie isn't available immediately, we'll contact you for a second choice. Gift wrap/note cards must be purchased separately for each item.
