I absolutely love this tea, I was not a hot tea drinker before this tea....I am now. Wish they still made it in tea bags for travel.
Perfectly balanced
Intoxicating aroma. Pleasant and relaxing way to end the day. Very flavorful!
Mild and refreshing tea.
very strong flavor. i like this
This tea really tastes like apple.
Totally love the flavor of this tea...definitely my new vaorite!
All the subtle flavors work very well together.
Smells good and tastes good. Great treat on a cold winter day.
Taste good
I read good reviews of this tea and they were spot on. This is an enjoyable way to end my day.
Swiss apple is a delight. Each sip gets better and better. I especially enjoy the wonderful aroma from each sip. Personally I do feel really relaxed when I have a cup. I recommend a box of assorted tea bags for yourself or as a gift. Trust me you will LOVE it. -Enjoy-
I didn't give it 5 stars because the flavor is not as robust as I generally like. It smells wonderful.
This is a nice herbal tea if you enjoy cinnamon because the cinnamon takes center stage. The apple is right behind though, resulting in a tasty apple-spice tea. I haven't tried this tea iced yet but it has a fresh taste that would likely make a good iced tea for summer.
This is one of the best tasting teas I have had. It's like an herbal chai and very flavorful! I highly recommend this for all you rooibos teas lovers.
I wasn't crazy about the flavor. Much prefer the harvest apple.
Really yummy!
OMG-I just started drinking hot tea (iced tea drinker for years) and the Swiss Apple is the bomb. I absolutely love it and plan to order more. This is my go to in the evening when I am sitting and crocheting.
Got this for a friend who has a hard time tasting any actual flavor in tea. She loves it and says she can actually taste it. Thanks for a great product. We may make a tea drinker out of her yet.
Love what's in this tea and it has a nice apple flavor without an overpowering cinnamon taste.
I love this tea.
I love the mix of spicy and sweet flavors in this tea. It's delicious and relaxing, and besides tasting great, smells incredible. Sometimes I taste the chocolate, sometimes I don't, but I don't mind much, this tea is great either way.
Everyone had their likes and dislikes. I'm sad to say this was not a favorite. I was so very excited to try this tea! And then, when I opened up the package I was hit with a faintly medicinal smell, not over powering, but odd. The taste was just the same, slightly bitter, and there was no cinnamon flavor at all, tolerable, but not the cup I was looking for. I tried blending it half and half with Harvest Apple, and that helped a little, but not much. In the long run I think this one is going to have to be set aside or gifted to one of my other tea drinking friend.
I absolutely love the Swiss apple tea. It is so soothing after dinner on a cold snowy night and it has no caffeine so I have no problems falling sleep. I bought several boxes of regular tea bags on sale and I am disappointed that I can't get any more. I really enjoy the apple and cinnamon flavors with a slight touch of chocolate and I drink it with a teaspoon of amber sugar.
I don't know why so many people don't like this either. This is a great tea. Not the best, and certainly not the worst. I love the spicy zing to it. The cardamom and clove really comes through for me and it's delicious and sweet.
I am surprised to see some of the low reviews for this blend. I very much enjoy this tea. It smells like apple, and tastes like apple cinnamon, it is delicious. The fact that it supports skin health is icing on the cake, I love this tea.
I've made herbal iced tea for years in the summer for something to drink but I've never really been a hot tea fan, opting for coffee instead. I picked this up a month and a half or so ago and this is what has been getting me through what has been a month of one cold/flu thing after another. I just went back to the place I initially bought it and was so disappointed to see they no longer have it. I saw "Swiss Apple" and that is mostly what I taste. I suppose in my naivete I also tasted cinnamon but I'm fine with it not being the predominate flavor. Didn't even know the chocolate was supposed to be there but I don't care. This is a good-flavored herbal tea. Now I need to look rooibos up because I have no idea what it means.
The rooibos is super light and airy with no bitterness at all. I enjoy cinnamon but I am afraid that it completely takes this tea over. The apple is slight and the chocolate is barely there. I think the tea needs a bit more balance by adding more apple and chocolate and less cinnamon. I tried it iced with honey, hot with no sugar and hot with cream and honey. I like it best hot with honey and cream because it brings out some of the other flavors a little better. One of the most beautiful things about Teaforte teas is that you can really tell what a quality product they are by the amount of steeps you are able to get. I can get 3 steeps from one little silken infuser! That is amazing to me.
I'm not usually a roobios fan, but I really enjoyed this. The apple and cinnamon flavors are the strongest, and there's the *slightest* hint of chocolate, but honestly I wouldn't have known if it wasn't in the tea description. :) Very satisfying cup of tea, especially in the chilly winter months.
I was honestly surprised to read the first could reviews on this tea. I really enjoy it! If you like apple cider and cinnamon, this is the tea version! Plus out of the skin smart group, and I've tried all of them, this is by far my favorite.
Smells like lysol, tastes like it smells! I love several of your teas but the herbal retreat teas have turned out to not be so promising. I did like the blueberry merlot, but the rest were very hard too swallow.
I was excited to try this tea, the combination of flavors sounded great. However, I have to say that I was missing the chocolate taste. It is a tasty tea, but the dominant flavors are apple & cinnamon, which is not a bad thing...except when you're anticipating a chocolate kick!
one of my favorites... give it a try...

Harris Introduces New Private and Secure Nationwide Managed Services Network
- Provides end-to-end managed network service that transports large amounts of vital information securely over a high-capacity network.
- Covers over 15,000 fiber route miles and has more than 30 points of presence across the U.S.
- Offering expands Harris legacy of providing mission-critical communications networks.
Harris Corporation (NYSE:HRS), an international communications and information technology company, has introduced a new managed services solution that will enable customers to move massive amounts of data securely over a nationwide, high-capacity terrestrial communications network.
The Harris Trusted Enterprise Network (HTEN) is designed specifically for large enterprises that must transport large amounts of mission-critical information securely within a private environment, such as government agencies, military, first responders, healthcare organizations, and investment firms. Network services will be provided by Harris within a managed services structure that can be customized for each user to meet individual requirements for security, bandwidth, speed, availability, and focused customer care. The network will be fully operational in January 2013.
HTEN consists of more than 15,000 fiber route miles, 100 gigabits of capacity on each route, and more than 30 points of presence across the U.S. When combined with the company's existing terrestrial infrastructure within the U.S., which includes 3,500 terrestrial circuits in 29 states, Harris can offer its customers one of the most robust fiber networks in the industry.
"Harris now offers mission-critical networks to a variety of customers - networks that are secure, private and offer a large amount of bandwidth with high availability," said John O'Sullivan, vice president, Mission Critical Networks, Harris Government Communications Systems. "We are experienced at managing and operating highly reliable networks under a performance-based business model offered at competitive prices."
Similar to the private, Harris-developed Federal Aviation Administration Telecommunications Infrastructure (FTI), the new end-to-end HTEN offering is now available to other government and commercial organizations that need an ultra-reliable network to transport their mission-critical information. Today FTI provides secure, voice, data and video communications for nearly 50,000 FAA employees and the nation's air traffic control system, supporting more than 2 million passengers a day.

I'm completely in love with @David Lanham's adorable creature design for 'Hatch' - an upcoming virtual pet for your iPhone (http://www.hatchpet.com) - so it's no surprise that last night's sketches ended up being more than a little influenced :D
I thought I'd take this one all the way and post it as a rebound (hopefully it's welcome!). You don't see a lot of illustration rebounds on dribbble... who knows, maybe I'll start a trend :S
So, here's my take on what would probably be a slightly more grown up version - not as cute, but hey, he still needs a good home and plenty of love!
Huge congrats to David, the @Realmac Software team, and everyone else involved - can't wait to receive my adopted egg next year!

I'm not looking forward to the whole process. But flying into HK is set. But i have to say, the process looks really streamlined for taking the ferry. Airport, buy your ticket for the ferry, they get your baggage, when you get to the ferry terminal at Fuyong then you go through customs and immigration, etc. Taxi to hotel. Reverse the process, including checking in for the flight at the ferry terminal, when going home.
It'll be interesting. Thanks for your help guys.

Very well situated apartment for 4 to 5. Would happily stay there again on my next trip!
Nice appartment in the city center! Everything is close, a supermarket, ... You can go everywhere on foot because it is right in the center. We had a good stay here.
Everything worked perfect.
It was easy to pick up the keys, and we were very satisfied with the appartement.
It was well ecuiped with all what we needed.
It was very closed to everything, the baker, shops with food and cafe's.
We can highly recommend this appartement.
Everything in the apartment worked perfectly, it is exactly as it is in the pictures. Very close to many great places to eat, the metro/RER, grocery stores, shops, and most major attractions are walking distance
The only complaint is also a plus. The apartment is right in the middle of everything, but it can be noisy later at night (especially weekend) and mid morning with tour groups going by. It did not bother me, but I could see how a light sleeper might have a problem with it.
Marvelous apartment, the landlady Diane is extremely pleasant and efficient. Everything worked smoothly.
Highly recommended
The flat was pleasantly decorated and clean. Good location, just by Notre Dame and Boulevard St Michel, and this is a very good asset of course. Unfortunately a very noisy musical bar underneath in the street played loud music until the early hours in the morning. Three of the rings in the cooker did not work from the very beginning of our stay, and the handbook instructions about this particular appliance were not too precise, so we had to work out how to operate the only working ring, it took a while. We indicated this to the agency, but the cooker was not repaired during our stay. The coffee machine did not work from the very beginning of our stay, but it was replaced a couple of days after we arrived. The area is full of restaurants of all types and prices. For us a good point was bookshops nearby, and walking distance from the Centre Pompidou library. The flat was well furnished with plates and pots. The shower cubicle is rather comfortable in size, and the main bed is big and provided with a comfortable mattress. The heating system was efficient. There is a big television set. Wifi internet worked only sporadically for the first half of our stay, but it was fine in the last few days. All in all, we had a pleasant stay despite the problems indicated here.
recommendable !
nice apartment, with an excellent location. It was fully equipment and an adorable furnitures. No noisy, even been in the latin district, but no views and weak wifi. To summ up, we recommend the apartment.
Everything was ok in the apartment. Very clean and the equipment was fine. We had a pleasant stay. Thanks a lot.
Lovely apartment

FIFA released its shortlists for the 2013 edition on Tuesday, and unsurprisingly there were some glaring omissions and unfair inclusions.
The FIFA Ballon d'Or shortlist, revealed on Tuesday, has once again shown that players and coaches are rewarded based on reputation and not on their form and achievements over the course of the calendar year.
This has been proven time and again. The snubbing of Wesley Sneijder and Diego Milito in 2010 is just one example, but this year is perhaps the most blatant case of big-name favouritism.
In the main category, Andrea Pirlo and Xavi are among the 23 contenders. The pair have undoubtedly been the top two center midfielders of their generation but both have been well below their best since January 1.
At Juventus alone there have been two midfielders superior to Pirlo – Paul Pogba and Arturo Vidal. The omission of the Chilean from the shortlist is nothing short of criminal. The 26-year-old has been Serie A's standout player this year, inspiring Juventus to the Scudetto and Chile to the World Cup.
Xavi, meanwhile, has endured his worst year at Barcelona from a personal sense since his injury-plagued 2005-06 campaign. Struggling to maintain a high level as he reaches the final stage of his career, Xavi was outshone in a series of high-profile matches, including Barca's 7-0 Champions League semifinal thumping by Bayern and Spain's Confederation Cup final loss to Brazil.
Yaya Toure is another player who has only made the list based on past performances. The Ivorian has had an average 2013, with Manchester City finishing 11 points behind neighbor United in the Premier League in May and already well off the pace this term.
2013 FIFA Ballon d'Or 23-man shortlist |
Lahm, Neuer, Schweinsteiger, Ribery, Robben, Muller | Bayern Munich | Bundesliga |
Lewandowski | Borussia Dortmund | Bundesliga |
Messi, Iniesta, Xavi, Neymar | Barcelona | La Liga |
Ronaldo, Bale | Real Madrid | La Liga |
Cavani, Ibrahimovic, T.Silva | PSG | Ligue 1 |
Falcao | Monaco | Ligue 1 |
Hazard | Chelsea | Premier League |
Suarez | Liverpool | Premier League |
Van Persie | Manchester United | Premier League |
Yaya Toure | Manchester City | Premier League |
Ozil | Arsenal | Premier League |
Pirlo | Juventus | Serie A |
Eliminated in Europe in the group stages, it is inexplicable that Toure can be nominated ahead of Dortmund midfield stars Ilkay Gundogan, Marco Reus and Mario Gotze. The presence of just one Borussia Dortmund player, Robert Lewandowski, is insulting. This is a team which lit up the Champions League in 2013 along with Bayern Munich.
Dortmund is also a team that defeated Mesut Ozil's Real Madrid in the semifinal after a 4-1 thrashing at Westfalenstadion. The playmaker was totally overrun by the above trio in that game and didn't score a goal for Madrid in 2013 until April. His presence on the Ballon d'Or shortlist is purely a reaction to his high-profile big-money move to Arsenal in the summer, where he has played just eight times since.
The inclusions of Eden Hazard and Luis Suarez are less controversial, but also very debatable. Hazard has reserved his best form for the start of the 2013-14 campaign, but if that is sufficient to make the cut then Francesco Totti, Aaron Ramsey and Diego Costa should be inserted too. Suarez has been world class almost every time he has taken to the pitch in 2013, but he has missed almost a third of his club's games this year due to suspension.
Spanish magician Isco - who dragged Malaga to the quarterfinals of the Champions League, was Player of the Tournament at the Under-21 Euros and has begun his Real Madrid career exceptionally - is more deserving than both Hazard and Suarez.
The coaching shortlist is also a slave to reputation. Vicente del Bosque, Jose Mourinho and Arsene Wenger have all achieved nothing in 2013. Mourinho even confessed upon leaving Real Madrid that 2012-13 had been the worst season of his career. The Special One lost the Copa del Rey final to Diego Simeone of Atletico Madrid - the Argentine is just one glaring omission in this category.
FIFA needs to consider new ways of deciding the nominees and winners of the Ballon d'Or. The current system - whereby the shortlist is compiled by the FIFA Football Committe and employees of France Football before the final voting is decided by international coaches, captains and journalists – does not work. The 2013 short list is confirmation that names are being selected purely on reputation.

Listened to it again today, this is awesome! They've changed from their first album that's for sure. This one presents the different "faces" of the band, as they play different styles in each track. All of them very enjoyable and well performed.

A review by Cesar Inca
KARCIUS Episodes
Review by Cesar Inca (César Inca Mendoza Loyola) Special Collaborator Honorary Collaborator Always restlessly approaching their interests in an eclectic sort of prog rock that mixes jazz-rock, psychedelia, fusion and symphonic textures, the guys of Karcius have released yet another gem in their repertoire by the end of 2008: Episodes is a marvelous exhibition of how much creatity these guys carry in their minds and souls in order o keep their artistic proposal fresh and renewed. As always, this bands sonic framework is loose enough as to fluidly incorporate sources of musical power that somehow relate their essence to the standards of prog-metal. You can also notice some bizarre progressions and ornaments that feel quite close to the challenging pace of avant-prog. This album doesnt fall short concerning these assets, but as I said before, Karcius does not replicate itself. Episodes comprises some new explorations related to space-rock, which in turn serves as a motive to emphasize the psychedelic factor that had already been present in preceding albums. The three sections of Elements open up the album in a most revealing fashion. Submersion, the autonomous title of the first section, openly flirts with he dense flow of your regular spacey psychedelic rock. At first, Suriols piano keeps things on a level of dreamy majesty, but it is only when l? Esperánces lead guitar comes to the fore that the track meets its main body and crucial development. Things pretty much get heavy-prog, featuring an incendiary guitar lead augmented by an ominous choir mellotron. The opening motif then returns, partially capturing the increased energy. The last two minutes get very spacey, with a bass guitar riff that paves the way for the emergence of Sol, the second section. This one is more celebratory, elaborating a jazz-funk groove that might as well remind us of Weather Report-meets-Brand-X. Near the end, things get hardened, linked to the current era of jazz-rock. Combustion, the suites third section, benefits from this particularly explicit momentum, with a first part that combines metallish riffs and Floydian environments: there is something grayish, subtly sinister about it. After the 6 minute mark, things get tighter up to the point of arriving at LTE-like territory. The epic conclusion provides a reprise of the bridge between sections 1 and 2. This suite has been simply lovely, a manifestation of the albums main virtues as a whole. Incident is more patently fusion-oriented, clearly influenced by good old Return to Forever (mostly due to the Flamenco-like atmospheres), but there is also that aura of musical extravagance that sounds closer to bands such as The Lonely Bears. The piano sonata entitled Levant is only 2 ½ minutes long, but thats OK since its Gershwin moods are developed in a most efficient manner. A lovely piece, indeed. In this way, the listener is prepared to listen to Purple King, a solid rocker in which the lead guitarist seems o pay homage to Allan Holdsworth and Jeff Beck. The progressive ornaments that go settling in allow the band to teach a lesson of prog metal even if it is not a prog metal group. There is also an organ solo very worthy of a special mention, in which we find traces of Lords exquisiteness and Emersons vibration. Purple King can be fairly regarded as the albums zenith. Racine occupies the albums last 9 minutes. This one is very much like Ozric Tentacles: starting with a white reggae vibe, later on the track shifts towards a space-rock momentum augmented with fusion touches. This is very similar to Ozric Tentacles at their most sophisticated. Ultimately, the first motive is reinstated in order to provide a cosmic relaxation with agile spacey textures. All in all, this albums doesnt equal the robustness of 2kaleidoscope, but it is not to say that this album is soft or lacking stamina. It has lots of stamina, indeed, but the band has put it in a more subtle level. Karcius still rules!

I personally would not call their previous efforts dark, but more aggressive, yes. Here they have definitely gone on a more epic note (the first 3 linked tracks), mellow note (Incident), still preserving some of their former power (Purple King) and a light jazzy note (the album closing track). A great varied album! |

A really good thing about these guys is that they're pretty young right now and still have a long way to go. All of their albums until now were great and I'm pretty sure they'll come up with a lot of other good material in the future. I talked to the bassist the other day and they're already working on new music.
They also might play at NEARfest soon. |
RIP in bossa nova heaven. |

Cincinnati Bengals at Chicago Bears
12:00 ct at Soldier Field, Chicago, Illinois
September 8, 2013
Both the Bears and the Bengals posted a 3-1 record in the preseason. But preseason aside let's talk about what we already know about this Bengals team. After only 2 years in the NFL Quarterback Andy Dalton and Wide Receiver A.J. Green have have developed amazing chemistry and are arguably the best QB-WR tandem in the AFC North. However, their offensive firepower doesn't stop at Green. With a receiving tight end like Jermaine Gresham, a versatile Mohammed Sanu, and rookie pickups Tyler Eifert and Giovanni Bernard. Look for Jay Gruden to throw a lot of different plays at the Bears defense on Sunday.
Defensively, the Cincinnati's front seven is one of the most underrated in the national football league. With the team totaling 50 sacks, the defensive line accounted for at least 40 of said sacks. Leading the way is All-Pro Defensive Tackle Geno Atkins who led the team with 12.5 and will give 2013 first round pick, Kyle Long, a good test. Not only will Long be tested but the entire revamped Bears offensive line will be tested and will have to keep in mind the havoc the Bengals could cause.
How the Bears Can Win
Besides being able to handle the Bengals defensive line, there are other key things the Bears must keep in mind to be successful in their first home game. The Bengals secondary is not one of the best secondaries in the league but dependent on if the defensive line can generate pressure do not doubt the Bengals ability to capitalize and force a turnover. If they can handle these things Jay Cutler will have plenty of time and to make the right decision. The Bengals might predict Cutler going to Brandon Marshall early and often, but if Jay can spread the ball around and keep the Bengals guessing, then the offense should thrive.
On the other side of the ball, the Bears will be starting D.J. Williams at MLB even thought he has yet to start a game in that position in 2013. Given this situation, expect him to be a little rusty in terms of play-calling and play recognition. If the Bengals realize this, they might attack the middle of the field frequently with double tight end sets which will collectively test the coverage of the linebackers. With A.J. Green being able to run routes to nearly perfection, Charles Tillman will have his hands full and have to have a performance similar to that he had against Calvin Johnson Jr. last season. The Bengals are no strangers to the deep ball and with Giovanni Bernard now carrying the workload safeties Major Wright and Chris Conte will have to be prepared at all times.
If the Bears can go into Sunday's game with theses multiple key facts in mind they will most certainly prevail and Marc Trestman will join some pretty esteemed figures, such as George S. Halas as being one of the few to win there first Bears coaching debut.
Chicago Bears: 17 Cincinnati Bengals: 13

Firestone Santa Ynez Valley Chardonnay 2009
Chardonnay from Central Coast, California
Winemaker's Notes
The estate vineyard has a long, successful history with Chardonnay. The wines tend to possess excellent concentration without losing their structural integrity. The key aromas and flavors in our 2009 include Fuji apples, citrus, pineapple, butter, warm toast and vanilla. The finish is crisp and lingering. The combination of intensity and freshness make this a good companion to roasted chicken, baked fish or young cheeses.
Critical Acclaim
Wine & Spirits - "This opens round and toasty, presenting green fig and sweet pineapple flavors that run through a rainwater-fresh finish. It closes on the stony savor of a pebble in the mouth, the fruit ending tart and firm. A wine to buy by the case and serve with grilled head-on shrimp, langoustines or other fruits de mer. This is the first vintage made by Paul Warson, who had been at Trefethen before coming to Firestone in 2009."
Firestone Winery
Firestone Vineyard specializes in expressive high-quality wines from estate and select vineyards in the Santa Ynez Valley and Paso Robles. Long considered a destination for visitors to Santa Barbara County's wine country, Firestone produces an array of Bordeaux-influenced wines in competitively-priced categories. Founded in 1972 by Leonard and Brooks Firestone, Firestone Vineyard was Santa Barbara County's first estate winery. In September 2007, Bill Foley acquired the Firestone winery and 380 vineyard acres in Los Olivos, as well as the Firestone tasting room in Paso Robles. Bill has continued the Firestone tradition in striving for the very best in vineyard management and cutting edge winemaking discipline. The vineyard focuses on optimal physiological balance in the vines yielding wines that are brightly flavored, crisp and delicious. Estate Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Sauvignon Blanc and Syrah vineyards are located on a series of mesas that have gravelly sub-soils, ideally oriented for perfect exposure. View all Firestone Wines
About Central Coast
View a map of Central Coast wineriesThe largest of California's wine growing regions, the Central Coast produces the majority of California's wine. The district sprawls out, covering most of the vineyard land between San Francisco and Santa Barbara. Smaller sub-AVAs of the Central Coast include Monterey Bay, Paso Robles, Santa Ynez Valley, Santa Maria Valley, Santa Cruz Mountains and many others.
Notable Facts
Grape varieties range from Pinot Noir and Chardonnay to Cabernet Sauvignon and Zinfandel. Some Central Coast wine is generic, bulk wine that contributes to the high production numbers of the area. But many winemakers and wineries, particular in some of the smaller AVAs, are small production artisans, creating unique and high-quality wine. The great thing about the Central Coast is its diversity - you're able to find a number of grape varieties and styles at a number of different price points.About California
It's not rare to see a wine's country of origin listed as "California." A country into itself in the wine world, California makes enough varieties and styles to match many European wine countries. It produces a diverse range of wines that span the quality spectrum.The most famous of the California wine regions is Napa Valley, and these wines are certainly outstanding – but it's not as broad and diverse as its larger neighbor, Sonoma County. Down south, Santa Barbara's Santa Maria Valley is well-known for its Rhône blends, as well as cool-climate varieties like Pinot and Chardonnay. The Central Coast, the largest California AVA, has many different microclimates that lead to a wide range of wines with many sub-AVAs.

Wordcount: same
An old TV friend who's turned into a feature producer coming for lunch next Sunday. I am priming myself to my ten word one sentence pitch which encapsulates the whole essence of my Novel 2. To be dropped in casually over the cheese and fruit, when it gets to 'so what's it about?' I know virtually all beginner authors think their precious stories would make the best features, and I know that film rights of unknown novels rarely sell, let alone get made. But one of the only ways any of them do sell is through some connection - friend, family or otherwise. The whole TV and film world seems to work like that. So here I am with my very own little link coming to our front door. Bookshelf next to dining table has to be rearranged, with mine and all my friends' novels face out bookshop style.
http://jenniferweiner.blogspot.com/ has been blogging about what it's like to have your book (In Her Shoes) turned into a film. But she's just been desparing about box office figures in the US & it seems it has all finished with her feeling slightly floppy about it all, even though it was all so full of stars and well received and distributed and all. It made me laugh reading about her urge to lurk around cinemas wanting to redirect punters from other films to hers. The film equivalent of shoving your own books on the bestsellers shelves in bookstores.
Bye bye, thanks for visiting, come again soon.

A shame Jennifer feels like that as the stars seem to feel they got good opportunities with the roles she 'gave' them. Both strong intelligent leads too. I want to get hold of it when it's out on video here (which is probably part of the problem, innit.)

SS Columbia
this wiki
The SS Columbia (NC-5940-1) was a 23rd century Federation survey ship. The ship was launched from Earth prior to her disappearance in 2236.
The research scientists on board, led by Doctor Theodore Haskins, were employed by the American Continent Institute. As the ship was launched before the breaking of the time barrier, it was considerably slower than later Constitution-class ships. The Columbia used a radio wave transmitter for distress signals. The signals were keyed to cause interference that registered on starship sensors as unidentified objects traveling at the speed of light.
In 2236, the Columbia crashed on the planet Talos IV, with crewmember Vina the only survivor. Eighteen years later, the starship USS Enterprise detected what appeared to be a distress signal from the Columbia, coming from Talos IV. Beaming down, the crew discovered a group of survivors, but it was soon revealed that they were elaborate illusions created by the Talosians, for the purpose of kidnapping Captain Pike. (TOS: "The Cage", "The Menagerie, Part I")

Product Description
Urban Decay Electric Pressed Pigment Palette. As much as we love Naked, we`re serious colour junkies at heart. When we launched The Vice Palette and saw how CRAZY everyone went over Chaos (a brilliant matte blue), we realised our fans craved bright shades as much as us. Inspired by Chaos, Urban Decay launches Electric Pressed Pigment Palette. The ultimate fix for colour addicts, this gorgeous palette is packed with ten of the brightest, most amazing shades you`ve ever laid eyes on. In addition to Chaos (yes, its back!), this palette marks the return of Revolt (a silver standout from our Anarchy Face Case). All the other shades are NEW! From ultra-smooth mattes to highly dimensional shimmers, each VELVETY shade delivers insane colour payout. Why do a Press Pigment Palette? Using pressed pigments was the only way to create heavily saturated brights with the intense pigment load we craved. Traditional eyeshadow formulas just wouldn`t cut it.If you`ve tried seemingly bright shades like these before, you know that a lot of them appear brilliant in the pan, but in reality look chalky, lack smooth application and don`t look anywhere near as vibrant on your eye. Not so with Electric. We carefully crafted the formula on every shade to make sure each one would apply with a soft and creamy texture and deliver serious colour payout.

Previous Challenge Entry (Level 4 – Masters)
Topic: Gossip/Rumors (either or both) (10/28/10)
TITLE: A Bit o� Silver or a Plug From a Six-Shooter
By Anita van der Elst
11/02/10 -
I wish to high heaven I'd fastened the shutters snug agin' my own meddlesomeness. If I'd'a done that, I mightn't be in this here pickle, havin' to make a life alterin' decision.
I been owner o' The Dry Gulp Saloon here nigh onto twenty years, offerin' the best whiskey in town. And sasspariller fer the ladies. I ain't opposed to females frequentin' my establishment a'tall. But if it weren't fer womenfolk I might'a never heard what I'm about to tell ya. So I'm a tad conflicted about allowin' 'em in.
Boy howdy, there's this big outfit outside o' town, The Cornerstone Ranch. It's been there since before I come out west. Owner lives back east. I been out there, providin' liquid sustenance at a barn dance, so I know the foreman. Clay seems like a good ol' cowpoke, never done me no harm anywise. He's shore made somethin' out'a that spread. Ever' fall his cowhands drive hundreds o' head o' cattle to the railroad, herds so big there don't seem to be no end to 'em. Must take in some purdy good money too 'cause Clay and the boys drop more'n a bit o' silver on this here countertop o' mine.
I asked Clay once about his boss. He said he ain't heard from the feller in years, figgers he done lost interest in the place. That don't bother Clay none. Clay says, "Me and the boys're doin' mighty fine. Don't need him messin' things up. We been doin' all the work all these years—I figger it's MY place now. He ever shows up? Might jest be a show down in the streets, that's all!"
I must'a looked a tetch pale faced 'cause Clay grinned and clapped me on the back. "Don'tcha worry none, ol' feller," he said. "Mr. High Falutin' Eastern Fancy Pants ain't a'comin'! I'm shore he got better things to do than ride all this way on dusty trains and stagecoaches an' all. You jest tend yer bar and no trouble'll come to ya."
Well, I wadded my botherment like a hankeychief in my back pocket and got on with my saloon keepin', like the man said.
I got me a little gal, Daisy Rose, borned to me and my wife seven years ago. My wife's one o' those ladies who come in fer my sasspariller. She ended up stayin'. I ain't sorry Daisy Rose come along but like I said, I'm a mite conflicted.
I let Daisy Rose have the run o' the place. She keeps me up on the doin's 'round here. They say womenfolk love bearin' tales but I gotta 'fess up, to my shame, my ears're always flappin' fer the tale to be told. So I ain't never told Daisy not to eavesdrop.
One day Daisy tells me what she heard while she was doin' her little chores, sweepin' the storage room. She don't know what it's all about but it durn near made my blood freeze.
Seems a couple of Cornerstone cowboys was enjoyin' a smoke out back. They's laughin' an' talkin' about how messengers from Mr. Fancy Pants been comin' regular-like to the ranch. How the cowhands got orders from Clay to give 'em a message to take back to him. As Daisy Rose prattled, a remembrance come to my mind of a coupla well-dressed strangers that'd partook of a glass of my finest. Later I seen 'em boardin' the stage, a little worse fer wear. Now's I think on it, 'twas evidence of a cowpuncher's blows.
Daisy's a'pullin' on my vest, "Papa, does Mr. Fancy Pants have a son? Willy and Little George said when Mr. Fancy Pants' boy gets here, they're gonna throw him a party in the gully where that ol' weepin' willow grows. What kinda party is a lynchin' party, Papa? Maybe Willy and Little George'll invite me."
Now I gotta decide if'n I bear this tale to the sheriff an' run the risk o' Clay's six-shooter finding a place to put a plug in me. Or am I gonna let Mr. Fancy Pants' boy get hung so's I can go on benefitin' from the Cornerstone's silver?
I wish to heaven I'd'a made Daisy Rose stay home with her mama.

Report Finds Continued Decline in Physician Turnover and Retirement
Jun 8, 2011, 12:00 PM, Posted by mtomlinson
New data released by the Irvine, California health care marketing firm SK&A shows that the "move rate" of physicians has declined for a third straight year. SK&A tracks job turnover among a group of 664,000 physicians across the country, using an annual survey designed to determine whether the physicians have remained at their jobs or have moved, retired or passed away during the previous year.
According to the report, the move rate for physicians in 2010 was 11.3 percent, down from 12.4 percent in 2010, 15 percent in 2009 and 18.2 percent in 2008. The increasing stability reflected in those numbers could be an indication that the nation's economy is dissuading or preventing physicians from changing jobs or retiring.
What do you think of the report's findings? Do you think the economy is affecting physicians' willingness to move or retire? Register and leave a comment below to let us know.
Read the American Medical News story on the report.

According to a government-commissioned report, more than half of the UK could be suitable for shale gas fracking.
The report says that under the maximum scenario, up to 2,880 wells could be drilled for oil or gas in a new licensing round, which would in turn generate 16,000 to 32,000 jobs.
BBC reporter John Moylan visited the British Geological Survey to find out which areas of the UK offer the best potential for fracking.

Park Myung Soo Criticized For Remark About Women's Clothing And Sexual Assault
Park Myung Soo Criticized For Remark or so Womens Clothing And Sexual Attack JiwonYu June 24, 2016 0 Right through the June 20 broadcast of Park Myung Soos Radio Show, Park Myung Soo were givena possibilityto take a seat down and communicate with a policewoman.
While discussing the issue of crimes committed opposed to women, the television personality said, I wagerthose crimes take place more continuously now that its summer. Its alright if women wear great clothes, yetI believe its unhealthy for them to wear overly revealing clothing and go out drinking, or such things as that.
After he acknowledged this on air, enthusiastsbegan posting comments on his Instagram, saying, Sexual assault doesnt occuras a result of ones outfit.
There are combined reactions to what he said. Some comments say, Park Myung Soo has a daughter, too, and he said it because he is concerned about other ladies out there. Dont you suspect you all are being too sensitive?
Others, angryby capability of his words, explain, I know Park Myung Soo said it out of worry, but I am hoping he knows that what he implies is that the victim is the only to blame and is the cause of sexual assaults. There isn't any correlation between ones outfit and sexual assault.
What are your mindin this matter?

Vistaprint coupons/codes?
anybody? anybody? bueller?
(6) Comments
Hi Jackie,
I've never used VistaPrint, but I did register with their site and they send me daily emails letting me know that as a preferred customer I'm getting such and such free or 50% off, so maybe if you register with them you'll get an offer for what you want. I don't think they've sent out coupons to me...hmm. They also have a specials section and a free section on their site. Maybe someone else has a coupon that works for anything you'd like rather than what they decide is on sale. HTH.
Yes, I would suggest to register and START a project (i.e. starting STDs or Invites but don't order and save it)....You'll get a TON of emails with special offers.
Yes, I was messing around on there on Monday and saved some stuff but didn't buy anything yet. I've gotten 3 special offer emails since then.
omg...you guys are brilliant!! i just signed up this morning...and they sent me an email for 50% off!! whoo hooo!!
If you sign up for ebates.com they will give you a percentage of the cash you spend at Vistaprints and many other online merchants back. Right now ebates.com is also running a promotion where you get a $10 gift card from your choice of a bunch of stores (Target, Home Depot...) when you sign up. Through ebates.com you get an even greater discount than you do through the direct Vistaprints emails. For example last week I got free shipping through ebates.com in addition to the 50% off that I got from the Vistaprints email. Ebates is free to join and so far has saved me bundle in additional discounts and $ back.

"Video Description: Since the Stimulus Package for Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 is out, how does EA's Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 Crash map compare to the old Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare Crash map?"
Since when was MW2 made by EA?Posted: April 3, 2010 6:36 AM -
ugh, i Was SOOOO pumped to get this map pack, But now i don't think i'll waste my money. How sad. Is There no such thing as "Courtesy Map Packs".
Posted: April 1, 2010 5:44 PM -
Is the CoD 4 side supposed to look better or did IW screw up again?
Posted: April 1, 2010 7:06 AM -
Sorry...video or no video, BF BC2 still has more replay value. Not hating on MW2 but BF just has a better muti. My opinion of course.
Posted: March 31, 2010 11:00 PM -
i wish that InfinityWard actually modified the map instead of Copying and pasting =(
Posted: March 31, 2010 9:58 PM -
I used to think I was nuts for thinking that Call of Duty 4 looks better than Modern Warfare 2.
Posted: March 31, 2010 5:42 PM -
Mandark XX
Not sure is this can be an "apples to apples" comparison as it looks like the MW2 capture quality is not as good. At least I hope that's the case 'cause the MW2 side looks like crap.
Doesn't matter much to me anyway. I like MW2 and I'd really like to play the new maps, but there is no way in hell that I'm paying $15 for this pack.Posted: March 31, 2010 3:00 PM -
wtf why does cod4 just look way better then mw2. wtf is going on man
Posted: March 31, 2010 2:44 PM -
I guess IW jacked up the particle effects for MW2 and lost some of the definition. Sad but it doesn't matter I won't be getting this unless the price drops, or if it is free on PC but it won't be.

How horrible. Cases of such violence are usually personal. It seems like too much time was invested torturing this lady for a "Thrill Killing". It sounds to me she was being punished or someone did this out of revenge. I did not know her lifestyle but if drugs were part of it that opens up a lot of possibilities. There are other ways to have sex being she was on the rag which makes me wonder if a female was involved. Maybe one that felt crossed by her. If she was in a bad relationship or had a jealous boyfriend that could be it also. But as for a thrill killing she would have been one of many. It wouldnt have stopped with her. It sounds like the assailant really wanted to humiliate this girl as much as torture her, and than kill her. With that M.O. you would know if they killed before or after just by the fashion it was done. With all those disgusting details there should be a vast amount of evidence. What ever it was nothing she could of said or done is deserving of such actions.

The revelation that many plans in the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act's health-insurance exchanges have high deductibles has put many of the law's conservative opponents into a corner: Once in favor of high deductibles, these critics of Obamacare are suddenly worried about the risk to consumers. The data show why their new position makes more sense.
In economics, the principle of moral hazard holds that people who have insurance that is too comprehensive tend to spend more than they should, because they're protected from the cost of their actions. Many people, especially conservatives, believe that reversing the moral hazard can reduce health spending, because increased exposure to cost will make consumers more discriminating.
There's some evidence for this belief. From 1971 to 1982, the Rand Corp. conducted the largest-ever randomized, controlled trial of cost-sharing. It showed that people who have plans with high out-of-pocket costs spend significantly less on health care.
This idea led conservatives to support high-deductible health care plans, along with health-savings accounts and increased copays and deductibles. Until the exchanges opened, one of the biggest complaints from conservatives was that such plans were under attack by Obamacare.
Just last month, the Wall Street Journal's editorial page argued that left to their own devices, insurers would rush out "cheap, high-deductible policies, allaying some of the resentment that the ObamaCare mandate provokes among the young, healthy and footloose affluent." The editorial suggested that such people would opt for less coverage, because they didn't want to buy more-comprehensive policies.
Now, conservatives are worried that Obamacare is becoming a "nightmare of higher premiums and deductibles," and that higher out-of-pocket costs will "force some to finance the costs of their care, a financially risky choice."

This Home.Woot Woot-Off is dedicated to the people of the world who endured the entire season of The Following from beginning to end.
You know how it is. You see a teaser for a show and think, "Man! That looks REALLY good!" So you watch the first episode and think, "Man! That WAS really good." Then week after week you watch with an increasing sense of disappointment, promising yourself that if the next episode is THIS bad, you'll stop watching altogether. Then you watch the second to last episode before the finale and you think, "Man! I'm sure glad I hung in there." But then you watch the finale and think, "Man! That was totally underwhelming." This Woot-Off's for you, people. Because you deserve a quality distraction after that.

Hopefully these pills will give me a six pack in three weeks without any exercise!
Hopefully this shoe polish like substance I purchased on the internet will make my bald patch magically dissapear!
Hopefully this body building course I purchased for only $15.99 will mean that the bullies will never kick sand in my face again! -
Nigel Farage MEP Knifes Big Business and Bankers in the EU almost as well as Max!
Can't Stacy get him on the show?
holy crap, a capitalist biting the invisible hand that feeds. I like this (grabs popcorn for show)
Love it, go Bitcoin
The phrases 'six pack' and 'body building' in my post actually have active links to internet arsewipe sites. I think satire is probably dead like they say. Yes, I think it probably is.
I will buy from Overstock using BitCoin every chance I get.
Hugs and kisses from the UK , Overstock dude 🙂
Yep. If Bitcoin doesn't, Litecoin certainly will.
pfft! ..
.. Bitcoin is no more likely to displace Central Banking than .. than email is likely to displace the Post Office. Ridiculous fantasy.
PS: I'm wondering if TelepathCoin might be viable. Ie. mind-to-mind communication of TelepathCoin: a Bitcion alternative which bypasses the internet. TelepathCoin Mining and Transaction Validation will be performed by a network of Telepaths .. anyone interested please concentrate on this dot (·)
Fuck yeah!
Good Link.
Max Keiser is about to shoot that laser and blow up the Death Star. He did it with silver in A New Hope and now he's doing it with Bitcoin in Return of the Jedi.
this whole bitcoin/gold/silver windfall appreciation belief that is forecast to happen because of the collapse of the government corporate cartel banking system, reminds me of the old carney game of pay for another chance and each time you get 1/2 way to the win… but you won't get there until you have spent enough to pay for the prize twiceover.
A few days ago the Sears CEO was "crucified" on this site for being a libertarian. Now, the CEO of overstock.com (a libertarian) is praised? Oh come on!!!
Make up your mind ffs! Are libertarians evil, good or so-so? Or does it depend if they toot your horn once in a while? Double standards again.
Andreas Antonopoulos: Bitcoin Will Cause Massive Decentralization of Financial Services
http://www.activistpost.com/2014/01/andreas-antonopoulos-bitcoin-will-cause.html -
Is there an actual link to the interview or is it rstricted to a no-context soudbite?
How does Mr Overstock hope to overthrow the central banking system by changing the BTC straight to fiat? All talk it would seem!
I bet his company has many funding links with the banking cartel, hedged loans with dodgy swaps or some other derivatives and bottom line is to pay out massive dividens to bond holders above all else..
I bet he simply wants to live in a gated community with his 0.01percent buddies and to never pay any taxes, shut out the dirty peasants and let them die, like any other fuedal system.
Bitcoin needn't be the crypto to achieve anything much. Too soon and the world's not ready. Another will be more successful I think.
BitCoin: The Global Cure for Zionism
by Johnny Punish
http://www.veteranstoday.com/2014/01/14/bitcoin-zionism/OK, so can Bitcoin do the job and defeat the Zionist dream? Can it force the USA and Israel into a space where leverage reduces them back to dealing with us as human beings and NOT chattel or collateral damage to their mentally ill aspirations?
Well the outside world is currently running to BitCoin because its the peoples revolution against the banksters who've dominated we-the-global-peoples. It's a freedom thing, a new world order by the people, for the people, and by the people. And if this thing takes, well it could destabilize the fiat U.S. currency taking out the legs of the Zionists who control the Federal Reserve; ergo destabilizing the U.S. Congress and their ability to sell off the U.S. working man as a slave to the Zionist masters and boom, the grand plan falls apart quick!
Quoting Prof Steve Keen – for international transactions all the
bank does is record that a transaction has taken place.I'd suggest that bitcoin can do that faster, cheaper, more securely,
and more transparently than any of the current banks.It will be interesting to see what happens when overstock goes
international. -

34 comments on "Do Americans Think We Face Tyranny? (Best Video of 2013 So Far)"
So .. don't mess with the 2nd Amendment?
Im sorry, until the average main street american wakes up then they are going over the cliff ( not the fiscal cliff ). Its amazing they have no real idea or education on real matters.
bloody scary. -
Just proves how Americans in general and the vast majority are godamn ignorant retards and total cretins.
We can't look that stupid to the world. Drinking our vats of coffee in a sport team tee.clueless!!!
And you will notice that the more they were young and foreign the more they knew that USA is not the land of the free and the brave. Just wait when they start using doctors and psychiatrists to buils arrest list of "mentally sick" to disarm, then arrest and who knows, to send to a special place ? Ales Jones is either on the kill list or the "crazy" list ? How's that for total dictatorship ? Now all your medical history belongs to the State and the State can use against you to disarm you, to decrlare you "crazy" and strip you of all your human rights. EXACTLY LIKE IN EAST GERMANY AND USSR.
Does their ignorance make them safe, because they're not perceived as a threat to power? Or does it put them in a dangerous spot, because they have no sense of the playing field, and which way the wind is blowing? Discuss:
[email protected] most powerful man in the world. The euro-american elite behind the US government is all about interests and protecting them, no matter what. Obama, if he's a good boy, will get well rewarded when he leaves office — like Tony Blair & co was.
As everywhere you are free until you effectivly challange the system. Don't challenge the system. Do what you are told. Believe the lies. Stay free.
I can only think of George Carlin's immortal words
"Think how dumb the average American is and then imagine half of them are even dumber than that"
Maybe we should ask Piers Morgan what he thinks???
Dear U.S. education system. I want my money back. Most of these people can not even speak basic english nor form a coherent statement. Their lack of basic knowledge about current affairs speaks mainly to the "good" job our mainstream press has done in keeping the sheep in the dark. Nothing to see here, all ahead full.
Those who do not learn from history, are destined to repeat it.
Youtube shows 301 views of the video??????? YET, there are 571 likes??????????????????
go figure? youtube manipulating popularity -
trooper dave.
Google is a CIA controlled outfit. So dont surprise youself if these bastards play and change the statistics. Everybody knows this. I dont even care to look at the numbers. They mean nothing. Its like the Bureau of Labor Statistics. Whats important in reality is to go on sites likes these and suggest to click on an interesting link. Googol Youtube is shit and its a shame that we still do not have a real alternative site that does practice these dirty tricks. -

Well, that's what happens if you "libertize" your education system 😛
What do you expect when you tap an ostrich on the shoulder, he pulls his head out of his hole, looks around and quickly reinserts his head back into the ground. Or perhaps the lack of trees in the city deprives brain function due to lack of oxygen…
Even if they hear to Alex Jones, They just dont want to believe it…. Morons..

Collecting baseball cards and other sports cards is a fun way for the whole family to build lasting memories.
Baseball Cards and Sports Cards collecting tips: A key thing to remember when building your baseball card and other sports cards collections is that the condition of the baseball card, football card, or other sports cards is very important to it's value and the selling price. Baseball cards in lower condition bring far less than those same baseball cards in top shape. Make sure to protect your sports cards with the proper card supplies every time. If you ever think of selling baseball cards, football cards, or other sports cards your top condition cards will always get better prices than sports cards that are not in top condition regardless if they are old sports cards or new sports cards when you put them up for sale.
There is no right or wrong baseball cards to collect. Many people like Topps baseball cards or Upper Deck baseball cards but there have been many manufacturers over the years and even the ones that are no longer in business anymore like Fleer or Pinnacle are collected by many. Some buy only new sports cards while other buy only old baseball cards. Price, value or what a price guide says a sports card is worth should not be the only or even the main factor in what you buy. The way to have the most fun with the hobby is to collect what you like and how you like and not what someone else says they think you should.
Many hobbiests like to buy baseball cards by the pack or box and get a thrill out of hitting their favorite player or that hard to find card insert, autograph or relic card. Others like to collect baseball card team sets or cards of their home town players and yet others buy factory sets or build sets by hand. Collecting baseball cards, football cards, basketball cards, or any other types of sports trading cards can be a life long hobby that's fun for the whole family. So above all enjoy your hobby.
