EVS Wrist Brace for Left or Right Arm
Break your fall not your wrist! Adjustable dual compression straps with stabilizing high density FlexPlate inserts let you control the amount of support, while allowing for full wrist movement.
Broke my wrist about 10 years ago in a BMX race. I had to get a titanium plate, pins, and screws. My Doc said if you are going to keep riding you better get a good wrist brace cause if you fall on it again you might tear it up so bad I won't be able to fix it again. So I bought these and wear them on both wrists every time I ride. They are very comfortable and after getting used to them I really like the additional support they provide. I fell hard on my other wrist a couple 3 years after I started wearing them and though I did still sprain it pretty bad it did not break. Without these I know it would have been another bad broken wrist!
Very effective and comfortable brace. Recently improved with velcro on the inside neoprene - previously it had a tendency to tear as you had to push your entire hand through. I use it for many activities besides biking, including computer use.
Seems to work very well. I've only used it once, but the option to add and take away stiffness was very useful.
After reading numerous reviews from other websites the wrist supports fit as advertised and was supplied with inserts for increased support. The velcro straps feel sturdy and I can't wait to wear them on the trail.

Alright everyone, I'm going to see this at a Saturday matinee but I figured I'd start the thread today since it opens today. Reactions? Likes? Dislikes? Did the Hulk smash enough? Was Scarlett hot enough? Was the script "Josh Whedon-y" enough?
I'll check in back later this weekend with my thoughts.
Don't read any further if you haven't seen the movie (spoilers!).

Symptoms and side effects of lung cancer
Symptom? Side effect? It can be difficult to know sometimes just what is causing a problem. The most important thing is to talk with your healthcare team about your concerns so that you can receive the help you need.
Learn about lung cancer symptoms
Lung cancer often doesn't have symptoms until after it has spread to other parts of the body. Some symptoms are similar to those of other common illnesses and can vary depending on the type and stage of lung cancer.
Learn about side effects of lung cancer treatment
Sometimes treatments for lung cancer can cause side effects: unwanted health issues that affect the patient's physical or emotional wellbeing. Many treatment side effects are temporary and will subside or go away after treatment ends. Some may continue after treatment and are considered late effects.

To all you guys that are saying "good they can have him", and, "Awesome for us", etc... I find it absolutely stunning that you think this is a good move and will help us. You do realize he has our ENTIRE offensive playbook dont you? Of which it is a 100% garauntee he will give to Fatso. Not to mention there are plenty of HC that were fired that go on to be some of the leagues best coordinators. This may be a good move in terms of the other teams they will play, but this may hurt us tremendously!
I believe any man's finest hour - his greatest fulfillment to all he holds dear, is that moment when he has worked his heart out in a good cause and lies exhausted on the field of battle...Victorious

ROANOKE, VIRGINIA -- After years of trouble with TempurPedic mattresses we went to Sears and purchased a top of the line Simmons Beautyrest Black pillow top mattress and box springs, spending almost $3K, thinking it would hold up and appreciating the 60 day Comfort guarantee should we not like it as much once we got it home. The mattress delivery went well, and we enjoyed the mattress but by 2 months the sagging had begun and in the 7th month we completed jumping through the hoops to satisfy the warranty, demonstrating a clean mattress, strong foundation, and a 1.5" sag.
We were told to pick out whatever mattress we wanted - no refund if we selected something less expensive and if it was more we would pay the difference. Furthermore, no more comfort guarantee- so if you pick something different and don't like it, too bad. Not wanting to make another mistake I read all I could find... which led me to realize that most all mattresses sag, the manufacturers consider this to be "normal". The more plush (more foam inside) the more it will sag, so pillow top mattresses are the worst. I learned that air beds and latex mattresses have the fewest issues so I went back to Sears to see if they carried either of these - No, no they don't.
I continued to research and in doing so learned that all beds contain fire retardant chemicals but some retailers will sell you a bed w/o the chemicals if you have a physician prescription. Not so with Sears - Serta, Simmons and Stearns and Foster all insist on giving you the chemicals and their customer's health is not a concern for Sears. My daughter and husband have both suffered health issues that have reportedly come from these dangerous chemicals.
I contacted Sears explaining my dilemma - obtaining another mattress that will eventually sag and make my family sick was not what I wanted. I asked for a pro-rated store credit. While I had offers of both store credit and a refund - in the end the people offering them were misinformed.
I took it all the way to the executive offices, thinking surely they would be empowered to keep a customer but no - they just don't feel they can do anything about it. They told me their only recourse, and thus mine, was to take the manufacturer's warranty. I contacted the manufacturer and they tell me I must deal with Sears-what a hot potato! No one stands behind these expensive mattresses with short lives. After buying from Sears for 30 years, I will never again purchase anything from them. Instead I purchased a mattress from Sleep Essentials in Roanoke - chemical free latex that won't sag. See ** for mattress education. I wish I had done this before buying from Sears!
RED ROCK, TEXAS -- My husband purchased our mattress and the store warranty from Sears in May 09 and to our dismay it started to sag about four months after we bought it. (Even though we routinely turn it each month) So here were are in Feb 2010 and I call the number listed on the back of my Sears warranty. They tell me to call the store I purchased it from so I do. The store tells me I need to fax them some information and I notify them I do not have a fax and direct me to the store where they will fax it for me. No such luck. Am rudely told by the store employee "we don't do that... we have never done that unless this is something new I don't know about.
You have to call the number on your warranty. So again I call the number listed on the warranty and finally get some help." Am then transferred to the Delivery Solutions department who take my claim. About 15 min later Sears Exchange Department calls me regarding my claim. The Rep didn't give me his name just old me I could either measure the bed and take pictures myself or have the mattress company come out and do it for me. So I figure I have two small children at home what the hey will have them come do it. Well the representative gave me the wrong number, which I repeated back to him, so I call Sears again.
This time am given the right number and am told I can measure the mattress with string to show the sagging. Call Integrated Bedding, who is not Sealy as I thought, and am told it will cost me $45 to have them come out. So again I call Sears and tell them I wasn't told there was a fee, which they so kindly apologized for. Then I ask how to measure the mattress and take the photos and where to send them. Am told to use a broom and ruler to show the sagging. I proceed to take pictures with the broom and string since I am not sure which way to do it and tired of jumping through hoops. I get them done and with the email sent in call Sears back.
I am NOW informed that because my mattress does not sag more than an inch and a half I do not qualify for the warranty. So am angry and ask to speak to a manager to whom I explain the entire situation to and let her know it feels as though I am sleeping in a ditch, and her response is I am sorry but you do not qualify because it is not more than an inch and a half and it sounds more like a comfort issue. So I tell her do the pictures show sagging and she says yes they do but not the inch and a half. So I tell her then how is it a comfort issue and not a sagging issue. Her reply it's not an inch and a half try again in a few months.
PEMBROKE PINES, FLORIDA -- On November 30th, 2013 we went to Sears looking for a new mattress set (mattress + box spring). The product is the same price everywhere and but we chose Sears as they offered to haul away our old mattress set. We are loyal Sears customers for over 12 years in an age where many customers have moved on to other retailers such as Best Buy, HH Gregg, Home Depot, JC Penny, etc. for home bedding, appliance and other needs.
On December 6, Sears delivered the new mattresses but categorically refused to haul away the old mattresses despite the fact that it is on the receipt to have them hauled away and despite the fact that this was the reason that I purchased from Sears. I called the store manager on the same day (December 6) and she apologized and arranged for Sears to once again attempt to do the haul away on December 11.
On December 11, the Sears employee arrived to take disposed of the old mattresses and then told me that they would not haul away the mattresses because they were "stained"! These are old mattresses and that is precisely the reason we wanted to get new ones so of course they are "stained".
Nonetheless, the Sears representative categorically refused to dispose of the old mattresses and left. He said that a "manager from the warehouse" would call me to explain their "policy". When I purchased the new mattresses there were no conditions stated regarding the haul away and the sales person went ahead with the sale knowing that this was a condition for us in buying from Sears.
After many years as a loyal Sears customer (and many investments in many purchases) I feel cheated. Sears has not and appears will not do anything to resolve this matter or to keep a loyal customer. I am posting this here so that other potential customers are aware and will make a better decision than the one I made in selecting Sears. BUYER BEWARE!! Sad, that a good long lasting customer relationship has to end like this but I guess that is Sears' way of doing business.
Sears contacted me (finally). They arranged for picking up the mattress on 21-Dec. The Sears employees arrived, inspected the old mattresses (to be hauled away as garbage) and again stated that they were too stained and wanted me to talk to their warehouse manager. The explained the same old story that they cannot haul away the mattreses in that "condition" that they were "stained", etc. etc.
SO I TOLD THEM A WHITE LIE. I said that I had spoken to a VP at Sears executive office (I really only had spoken to the Sears Social Media Support Escalations as you can see above). They seemed to believe me because then the Sears person told their manager over the phone the manager told him to just get it done.
It is too bad that I had to lie to get this done but they took it away finally (third attempt). Will this make me buy again from Sears? I don't know - what would you do?
Dear Charlie, My name is Susan with Sears Social Media Support Escalations team. We are a single point of contact for escalated issues which means that we handle issues start to finish with one dedicated Case Manager. We're sorry that our delivery team would not haul away your old mattresses. We'd like to offer the assistance of a dedicated Case Manager who can discuss possible options to resolve this situation.

At your convenience please contact our office via email at firstname.lastname@example.com and a dedicated case manager will contact you directly. In the email, please provide a contact phone number and the phone number the mattresses were purchased under (if different than the contact phone number) and we will call you directly.

Social Media Moderator Sears Social Media Support
Purchased Sears mattress and box spring in late February 2014. Win a few months, the mattress sagged in several places which also has caused back pain. Initiated mattress claim in June 2014. Sears would not consider any refund because the sagging had not occurred or was reported within the first 30 days after purchase. I did not expect any sagging for years.
After going back and forth with Sears, I had to accept a different style mattress which is larger than the original box spring. ( I could not tryout the replacement mattress because it was not available in local stores). This is because Sears would only replace the mattress-not the boxspring. THE REPLACEMENT MATTRESS has sagged! Sears is no longer the customer-oriented store it used to be. After being a longtime Sears customer, I would no longer consider purchasing another mattress or Sears product from Sears.
TULSA, OKLAHOMA -- I purchased a Sealy box spring and mattress set from Sears which cost, on sale, over $ 850.00. After less than 18 months it began to sag in the middle, making a V. I called about the warranty. WHAT A JOKE!!!! They sent out an adjuster who spent the total of 1 minute checking it over. Next day I get a call telling me they will not cover the warranty because there is a small stain on the mattress, which I might add is no where near where it sags and was caused by the delivery men when they set the mattress set up. So I will never never never step foot into a Sears store again to purchase so much as a toothbrush.
We apologize for failing to meet your expectations with your mattress. We can understand the inconvenience this causes with your time and money. My name is Liz and I am a member of the Sears Social Media Support team. I saw your post and wanted to offer our assistance.

BREA, CALIFORNIA -- I will never again buy so much as a sock from this company!!! This store by far is the most dreadful of this low end chain I have yet had the displeasure to deal with!!!!! I purchased a $1500 mattress set on 5/31 and was promised delivery on 6/3. The actual delivery was on 6/13. They promised the box springs were free with the purchase of the mattress... Actual cost of king box spring set $400.
The display mattress was ideal, but the actual bed was the most dreadful piece of crap! It felt like I was sleeping on a cement block. I slept one night on it and called to try to fix the situation the next morning. Customer service gets an f- as well. Nobody at this store claims they know a thing about mattresses and the store manager himself claimed he had no authority and asked me to drive all the way back so he could
CHICAGO, ILLINOIS -- I purchased a queen mattress set and a full mattress set from Sears the Delivery date was February 19, 2013 and paid for them to haul away the old mattresses. When they arrived I informed the driver that they were to haul away the old mattresses, he informed me that it wasn't on the sheet and that they don't haul away old mattresses I informed him that oh yes it is, I paid for this service, if there wasn't any haul away service then I would have gone some place else and purchased my mattresses.
He then stated I will look on the sheet when I go back down stairs. He bought the sheet upstairs and stated that it was on the sheet to haul away the old mattresses. He then started to tell me that the reason that he couldn't haul the mattresses away was because there was a man who worked at the warehouse and broke all out and that it was discovered that he had been bitten by bed bugs and that this was a insurance matter.
I informed the driver what am I supposed to do with the old mattresses? He then stated that we will take them to the alley. I informed him that wasn't what I paid for. He then came back upstairs and called his supervisor so he said and told her a outright lie he stated the reason that they didn't take the mattresses was because he [editor note: submitted review ended here]
FLAGSTAFF, ARIZONA -- The first purchase I have ever attempted to make at Sears was a mattress and box springs. The lady who helped me ** was knowledgeable and helpful. She told me my mattress would be delivered the following week. Today is the day the mattress was supposed to be delivered. I had not heard from anyone. A call to customer service came up with a guy who could barely speak English, told me it would be delivered in another week, and when I asked to speak to a manager, he put me on hold for 15 minutes. He then told me there was no manager to speak to. I called my local Flagstaff AZ Sears.
The manager said she would look into it. I had not heard back from her so I went to the store where she was rude and confrontational. She said that the delivery date I was given didn't mean anything and I would only hear from Sears if they were going to deliver the mattress. She called me later to say they didn't know if the mattress was in stock in their warehouse and therefore had no idea when it would be delivered. In the meantime, Sears has all ready charged my credit card for a mattress they don't even know if they have. I have cancelled my order and will get my money back.
CERRITOS, CALIFORNIA -- Bought a queen size bed from Sears 1 years ago. Since then I have returned two because they sagged in the area in which my wife and I sleep in only a 4 month time. Now Sears is running me around through a third party to see if I can now get my money back. This mattress I was told carried a 10 year warranty. When calling in this third party inspection, I received two different stories from Sears Customer support personal. One said I could just go in to Sears and pick out a replacement. They would deliver the new selected mattress and pick up the damaged mattress and return it to the manufacture.
The second person said I had to go through this third party which requires me to call it in and wait from what I can tell a this point 3 days for them to set up the appointment to look at the bed. Who knows how long before the decision is made whether I get my refund.
JACKSON, TENNESSEE -- We bought a Serta mattress from the Sears store here in Jackson, TN on Oct 19th 2011. We were told it would be delivered to our home on Thursday Oct 27th and that we would get a phone call telling us what time. My husband received the call stating it would be between 2:30-4:30 that afternoon. He made arrangements to be home an hour and a half before the earliest delivery time. Our daughter who is 22 called her father at 12:45 telling him they were already there.
She gave her phone to the delivery man and my husband asked they wait 10 minutes for him to get there. They refused. They came in on my daughter who was home alone, trying to go to work and had to call and tell her employer she would be late. They did not bring the bed frame but told my husband they would bring it tomorrow.
He told them no and to wait because he didn't want anyone to sign something he didn't see in case it stated they did deliver the frame and we didn't get it. That's exactly what happened. We didn't even get a copy of it but Sears (although they have been nice about this) states the frame was on the truck and shows it was delivered. My husband who NEVER gets mad is so angry he doesn't know what to do. I am angry because these men walked in on my daughter without permission, scared her, would not listen to instruction and then they lied on top of everything else. We still don't have our bed frame today and was told it would now be tomorrow.
We were told we would be compensated by being given free shipping. We were supposed to have free shipping anyway. You can't compensate for scaring my daughter. I understand these delivery guys are sub contractors and not employed by Sears but I can tell you one thing... I work in commercial insurance. They are supposed to have some liability insurance as a sub contractor and should be background checked before they are allowed to visit peoples homes. SHAME on Sears. This is so unacceptable!!!

Reach Drives BASF to Phase Out Lead Chromate by 2015
4:06 PM MST | February 27, 2012 | Alex Scott
BASF says it plans to phase out the production and sale of lead chromate pigments by the end of 2014. The move follows the European Union's (EU) evaluation of the substance under its Registration, Evaluation and Authorisation of Chemicals (Reach) program. Under the Reach process, from May 2015 lead chromate will no longer be permitted for sale without approval by the authorities, BASF says. Question marks over the future use of lead chromate first came to light in December 2010 when the European Chemicals Agency (ECHA; Helsinki) proposed it should be...

Afternoon Tea
The traditional 'welcome home' after a day on the slopes will be laid out for you in your chalet or Chalet Hotel, ready for your return, every day except on the staff's one day off per week. A good cup of tea or coffee is the perfect accompaniment to a delicious slice of freshly home-baked cake and keeps hungry skiers happy until dinner is ready.

The Sixth Great Vow:
'I vow that in a future life when I attain Bodhi, if there are sentient beings whose bodies are inferior and whose faculties are imperfect, who are ugly, dull, blind, deaf, mute, deformed, paralyzed, hunch-backed, or afflicted with skin disease, insanity or various other sicknesses and sufferings, upon hearing My Name they shall all become endowed with upright features, keen intelligence, and perfect faculties, and they shall be free of sickness and suffering.'
The Seventh Great Vow:
'I vow that in a future life when I attain Bodhi, I shall cause sentient beings who are oppressed by many illnesses and who are without aid, without a place to turn, without a doctor, without medicine, without relatives, and without a family, who are poverty-stricken and filled with suffering to be cured of their sicknesses upon having my name pass by their ear, so they are peaceful and happy in body and mind. They will have a family and relatives, and acquire an abundance of property and wealth, and even realize unsurpassed Bodhi.'
"Moreover, Manjusri, when Medicine Master Vaidurya Light Tathagata attained Bodhi, by the power of his past vows he contemplated all the sentient beings who were undergoing various kinds of sicknesses and sufferings. Some suffered from diseases such as emaciation, atrophy, severe thirst, or yellow fever; others were harmed by paralysis ghosts or by poisonous hexes; some died naturally when young, while others experienced untimely deaths. He wished to dispel all their sicknesses and sufferings, and to fulfill their wishes."
At that time, the World Honored One entered a samadhi called "extinguishing the suffering and distress of all beings."
After He entered this samadhi, a great light came forth from his flesh-cowl. From amid that light He proclaimed this magnificent Dharani:
namo bhagavate bhaisajya guru vaidurya prabha rajaya tathagataya arhate samyaksambuddhaya tadyatha
om bhaisajye bhaisajye bhaisajya samudgate svaha
After He had spoken that mantra from amid the light, the earth trembled and emitted great light. All beings' sicknesses and sufferings were cast off, and they felt peaceful and happy.
"Manjusri, if you see a man (or a woman) who is ill you should single-mindedly and frequently clean and bathe him and rinse his mouth-provide him with food, medicine, or water that is free of insects, over any of which the Dharani has been recited 108 times. After the sick person has taken it, all his sicknesses and sufferings will be gone. If this person has a wish, he should recite this mantra with utmost sincerity. Then he will obtain whatever he wished for, and his life will be prolonged and free from illness-At the end of his life, he will be reborn in that Buddha's Land. He will become irreversible and will ultimately attain Bodhi. Therefore, Manjusri, if there are men and women who, with utmost sincerity, diligently worship and make offerings to Medicine Master Vaidurya Light Tathagata, they should always recite this mantra and never forget it.

Henin-Hardenne paid tribute to Ana after booking her place in Sunday's final, 6-4, 7-5
"It was a good fight and maybe I should have won the match earlier but she kept fighting," said the Belgian.
"I was playing much better in the second set but couldn't finish the points."
Ana blamed poor footwork for her defeat.
"I didn't move that well today," she said. "I made a lot of mis-hits on both backhand and forehand.
"I should have got more into the court and put her under pressure. But it was a great experience and I think I had my chances in both sets."

Midwest Living Review
Get ready to explore sports and careers and to get creative at this new children's museum. Set along the riverfront, it provides a playful mix of hands-on activities, themed settings that spark imagination, a good dose of humor, room to roam and climb, and a lot of local inspiration.
That might mean patiently waiting while your son tries on jerseys for half the Green Bay Packers team in the Get Up and Get Moving exhibit. Or your daughter might spend half the morning zipping down a fire pole and putting out virtual flames with a fire hose along Safety Street.
The museum, which opened in June 2012, aims at the toddler to early-elementary crowd with sensory-rich activities. Kids can splash with toy boats in water channels built into a sailboat facing a Great Lakes lighthouse and climb into the lighthouse or a nearby oak tree with cozy nooks for reading or having a tea party. They can follow dance lessons by a jukebox and order up pretend meals in a 1950s diner, explore a shoe store in Our Town, or dig in the dirt and plant seeds at a garden shop.
When it comes to most memorable exhibits, giggles abound while climbing a giant tongue that triggers a burp when entering a mouth into a gigantic digestive tract. They climb through the tunnel, exit with a fart and slide to a toilet drawn on the floor—it's the ultimate visual aid for the potty-training crowd.

Bits but no bubbles: first meal at Bo Laksa part deux
I'm not usually one to visit restaurants during soft openings but I couldn't resist the chance to try more of Bo's great fare in a sitdowny environment. The SO and I swung by early tonight, around 6:30, to a quiet room. Bo came out and we had a wee chat. He recommended the pork belly curry, one of his new dishes, and then we had to try the pad thai as that is only on his take out menu at the store and we hadn't been able to try it, living well outside delivery range. Of course we had to have a small roti canai as well. And we shared a milk tea too (they are very large).
The pork belly was lovely and tender, with lots of flavour. The curry was rich and ruddy, with that slight "grindiness" and body that I love, almost like there are ground almonds or something in it. The achar that came on the side was excellent, green and fresh with lots of chili heat. Even the stir fried veggies were done really well, still al dente and subtly flavoured. Ben of Chowtimes would be scooping up the curry sauce on his rice :-). The dish was $8.75.
Pad thai was one of the better ones I've had. No evil ketchup, a nice kiss of tamarind (I wouldn't mind even a little more), plump shrimp, and interesting ingredients like pickled turnip and banana blossoms for extra crunch and texture. The noodles were good if slightly clumpy in spots. This was $7.50.
We were already fans of the roti which we really didn't need, but when has that ever stopped me? Next time I will order it with (sigh) condensed milk. Both of us were stuffed by the time we left $26 later. A big group of nine were just coming in for a birthday celebration and they nearly filled up the place which only seats about 15.
It is a fairly utilitarian room but tidy. One of the two servers seeming to be confused and harried though there wasn't any apparent reason to be (nerves, maybe?). The food is all served in disposable containers with plastic cutlery and tossable chopsticks to emulate street food, which makes sharing a bit more difficult. I am okay with this but my inner West Coast granola self hopes that one day they will be compostable/recyclable :-).
Bo was sold out of his three Burmese dishes (tea leaf salad, ginger salad and mohingar) tonight soI can't wait for the all-Burmese Chowdown which Fernando is arranging for Saturday, August 28. I think Bo may be including a special fish head curry made from fish he is importing from Burma -- woohoo!
Couple of pix below with I surmise more to come from fmed, who was there an hour or so after us :-).
PS They have excellent air conditioning... 2546 East Hastings just east of Nanaimo
Hi grayelf, I'm going there next week. It will be my first time ever in BLK. (shame on me. :(. Anyway, i will be getting the laksa and the roti. The laksa will be courtesy of the Chowtimes coupon. (thanks Ben and Bo.) Aside from these two and the tea salad, what would be another must order dish in BLK? Its a bit far from Richmond where I live so I may not visit as often as I wanted.

(If I may...) The Burmese Pork Curry is outstanding.
re: CrispyLechon
Cash Only - yes.
re: CrispyLechon
Just a word of caution if you are doing takeout: the roti canai has a very brief half life so you might want to eat that there. The pork belly would be fine the next day (maybe even better; you know how curry can be). Tea salad should hold up pretty well if you get it unmixed -- I think Bo does that regularly for takeout at his other location. 50/50 on the laksa -- IIRC it comes separate from the broth, but I dunno how the noodles will be after travel.
re: Cancuk
There is definitely some inexperience in the front of house staff there. As you say, the food is great. Also - I'm not in agreement with Bo's choice to use disposable implements. I do understand where he is coming from with his decision to do that. This food deserves to be served on real plates!
re: Cancuk
We've made it back to BLK BB twice since our soft-opening visit at the end of July, both times with large groups so we've been able to sample a large swath of the menu.
FISH CAKE — very good, better with the darker sauce we had the first time
SHRIMP CAKE — not as good as the fish cake, as above re sauce
ROTI CANAI — love this, but not so much the sauce it comes with (I use it to dip in soups etc instead)
SATAY CHICKEN — moist and tasty, with a not-too-sweet peanut sauce; sticky rice is good
SATAY BEEF — a little dry for me
LAKSA – winner and still champeen for me in town, top notch and even better out of a real bowl!
MOHINGAR – my favourite of the versions I've tried, not too fishy
PAD THAI — the best of this dish I've had in town, which is unfairly damning it with faint praise; especially love the addition of banana flowers and preserved turnip for extra flavour and crunch
MEE GORENG — this was fine, though a bit dull, but then I think that about all mee goreng -- not a fan of kecap manis :-)
PINEAPPLE FRIED RICE -- not bad but let down a bit by a too-tart pineapple; it's a little one note
THAI BASIL CHICKEN FRIED RICE – we got this by accident one night when we ordered in a wild frenzy and it turned out to be the hit of the dinner; very tasty indeed
DRUNKEN BEEF — good flavours but too dry
BEEF RENDANG — same comment as for drunken beef
Marinated beef slowly cooked with coconuts gravy and Bo's special spice, served with rice.
BUTTER CHICKEN — this was just okay; still searching for a great butter chicken in Vancouver
PORK CURRY -- this is a winner for sure, with the fat in the pork belly keeping it moist
TOM YAM — another winner, top of my list for Thai hot and sour soup here (we had the shrimp)
LAHPET THOKE — I love this salad, even when it is not well made, and that is not the case here. Bo's is the front runner of the tea leaf salads I've tried (the rest were in San Francisco). A unique flavour combination, great for sharing. Eat it with rice and preferably for lunch as it packs a serious caffeine whallop.
PAPAYA SALAD — a solid version, nice and refreshing
PICKLE MANGO SALAD — second only to the tea leaf salad in my book, another unique flavour combo, this is mango like I've never seen/tasted it before -- brined and almost like olived as mentioned upthread
Now if I could just get Bo to add his butter rice (served at our recent Burmese chowdown) to the menu I'd be very content. Oh and if he would get larger serviettes too, man they are small :-).
Like many (SE) Asian restos, this is a good place to go with a few more people so you can try more tastes and up the value. So very glad it is here...

re: grayelf
Hit BLKBB with another Hound and her SO plus two friends on September 9, which was the 1 year anniversary of the original BLK near Joyce. Bo had planned to make Burmese biryani and offer it for $6 but they were too busy. He is going to do it within the next week and will put it on their website and/or tweet it.
He had a wheat noodle salad as the lunch special today and whipped us up a portion even though the special was over. I liked it very much. It reminded me of potato salad, but with noodles and lots of zippy chile heat. It was very creamy due, according to Tiffanie, to the addition of chick pea powder. It also had Shan province egg tofu. One of our diners felt it was too tangy. I had tastes of the papaya salad, the beef rendang and the pork curry which were all very good, with the beef being more tender than the first time I tried it.
We also enjoyed some Burmese tea and a complimentary piece each of coconut agar agar jelly with coconut milk ladled over top. This latter was a little salty/savoury and really complemented the sweetness of the jelly. Bo is now offering a variety of Burmese and Asian desserts, including black sticky rice and durian cake. For $15 tax and tip in with leftovers this was once again a great value.
He is also working on a new menu, changing out some items for new ones, though of course keeping the must haves like tealeaf salad, which was great as usual that night. And he's planning a thali style, minimum four person dinner for $30 which sounds great.
re: grayelf
We hit up Bo for some dessert after the Chowtimes dinner at Luda up the street in late October. The standout for me was the durian cornmeal dessert pictured below. For some reason (cause he's Bo?), we got a complimentary order of the squid salad which I had neglected to try. It is excellent, creamy but spring squid bits in a bright, citrusy, spicy dressing.
BLK's facebook page says there's a weekend special: spicy tomato chili crab (over 1.5 lb) for $19.99. If you want it, you have to reserve.

Meet Roku, which means �six� in Japanese.
Roku is a streaming video player device that can be purchased for about $50 that hooks up to a television and allows free viewing of on-demand internet movies and TV shows on more than 600 channels; the majority of which do not incur any monthly charges.
�I really believe it is the next generation of television,� said Dale Jackson, who along with his partner Paul DiFranco, has set up a 15,000-square-foot Roku television studio in Chantilly called Zom-Bee TV.
The studio features classic horror films hosted by commentators and original programming including the shows Cinema Insomnia, Corpse Collective, and music show The White Label Lounge.
The channel launched on Oct. 14.
Jackson said that for movie and television content owners or distributors, Roku represents a very cost-effective means to deliver shows to a rapidly increasing number of households.
As an open platform, Roku�s streaming player enables content owners to bypass traditional distribution routes and reach viewers and consumers directly. �Roku�s platform allows a wide variety of channels and one benefit is that, at least for right now, it is not regulated,� he said. �So we are free to have guests on our shows speak freely.�
The studio sells advertising and so far has landed Best Buy, McDonald�s, Nicoderm and the North Face as clients, according to Jackson.
�We are able to minimize royalties overhead by showing old horror movies that are in the public domain,� Jackson said.
Barely over a month old, the studio is already expanding its programming.
The studio�s White Label Lounge show is its first non-horror-themed program, and features local hosts Steve Nerangis, 40, and Pete Buchbauer , 29, as they interview musical guests and recommend new music right from the Chantilly studio off Gum Springs Road.
�Because we are from different musical generations but both have good taste in music, I think we keep the show fresh,� said Buchbauer.
In a few shorts months of recruiting, the show has landed interviews with an array of musical artists from around the world, including members of bands Styx, Senses Fail, Kix, Vampires Everywhere!, Faster Pussycat, The Early November, Fozzy, In Flames, Cherri Bomb, Lostprophets, and Foxy Shazam, as well as actor Efren Ramirez, who played Pedro in the movie �Napoleon Dynamite,� and the filmmakers behind the documentary short �Heavy Metal Parking Lot.�
�I sort of think of our show as a cross between Last Call with Carson Daly and the way MTV used to be, when they were about new music,� said Nerangis. �We generally start off by recommending a band, then showing a video or two, and then interviewing someone from that band in depth.�
Local viewer and fan Amy Helmick, 36, says she is hooked on the show.
�It is unique in that it is local but also very good,� she said. �I like the music, and the recommendations so far have been top notch.�
Helmick said she became acquainted with the Roku player when her boyfriend, who works at Best Buy, came home with it one day. �It is really convenient and I like the fact that you don�t have to pay for a lot of the programming,� she said. �We are thinking about cancelling our cable television now.�
Jackson said that does not surprise him.
�I hear that from a lot of young people,� he said. �Roku is growing constantly and very well could spell the end of cable television. Cable companies are definitely not fans.�
Jackson said he is happy to be entering such a growing industry trend in television entertainment on the ground floor, and hopes to grow with it.
The studio currently employs about 13 people including set designers, sound technicians and camera operators. There is also an intern from George Mason University working there as the studio�s erstwhile social media director.
Andrea Sakellaropoulous, 21, is an English major with a concentration in film and media studies. �I really like being here,� she said. �I think this experience is going to help me break into this industry.�
Jackson agrees.
�Roku is building a streaming brand and taking on cable,� Jackson said. �It is already in Canada and Europe as well as in the U.S., and many companies including Dish Network and Netflix are already onboard.
�I certainly hope that by this time next year, Zom-Be TV is firmly entrenched, and producing at least 10 original shows fulltime. That�s my goal for right now.�

And I'm also getting real tired of all the psychological bullying going around these days.That's pretty much where I was coming from earlier. It started out as a means to help people, but now it's mostly just weaponized nonsense. Sure there are still some of the low level touchy feely I'm ok you're ok types. But the bulk of the psychology effort seems to go into screwing the shit out of the populace by conning them into believing some mindblowingly ridiculous spin-doctored bullshit. Like we're really supposed to feel sorry for the
Either that or they're trying to "fix" things that are just not repairable. Some fruitcake standing over a pile of corpses with a can of whipped cream, a sparkler, and a spoon does not need counseling.
Couldn't agree more.
Psychology signals were used as weapon in society for centuries. These days it is heavily used in corporate places and social interaction to bully people.
+1 again.
And you see articles like this EVERY DAY in the news. Maybe not as blatant, but they're always there. Usually softer and in higher numbers.
Tell a lie enough times and it becomes truth.
I love the analogy "weaponized", because that's so completely bang on.

Product Description
Chickens have a hard time eating greens that have been tossed into their pens – they get stomped on and mucked up before anyone can even try to eat them. Plus…well, chickens don't have teeth.
Make their job of eating greens easier by adding them to this adorable treat ball. It's fun to watch them peck and play at the ball, snapping off perfect 'bite-size' pieces. The more greens in their diet the healthier eggs and richer the yolks – it's a win-win.
