The simplicity of the French press confuses some people at first until they see it in use for the first time. See our video showing how-to-use a Bodum Chambord French Press here: Bodum Chambord Coffee Press.

John Legend, Questo, and Rob Thomas Wake Up Fans for the Run for Water via Twitter
Not every musician is willing to take the stage before Noon. But for a good cause, Live Earth supporters will go a long way.
The Dow Live Earth Run for Water began more than 12 hours ago, shortly after daybreak on the New Zealand side of the International Date Line.
6K run/walks and live performances have taken place in more than one hundred cities, from Melbourne to Bali to Singapore to Amsterdam and Berlin (Watch the real-time photo slideshow). 6km is symbolic because it is the average distance many women and children must walk each day to attain clean water.
But you don't have to wake up at dawn and do a 6K to support Live Earth and help solve the global water crisis.
You can sleep in a little bit and catch the post-run/walk celebrations, complete with live performances and tour the Water Village.
John Legend and Questo of the Roots (performing in Prospect Park in Brooklyn along with Common) and Rob Thomas (performing in Atlanta) took to Twitter to literally wake up their fans today. Will you take part?

President Barack Obama said Wednesday he was unaware of any disclosure of classified information from the scandal engulfing former CIA Director David Petraeus and Gen. John Allen, the top U.S. commander in Afghanistan, that could damage national security.
"I have no evidence at this point from what I've seen that classified information was disclosed that in any way would have had a negative impact on our national security," Obama said in his first post-election news conference.
Obama, addressing the ongoing controversy for the first time publicly, said Petraeus tendered his resignation because his actions "did not meet the standards he felt were necessary as the director of the CIA."
The former four-star general admitted last Friday that he had had an extramarital affair with a woman who was later identified as a co-author of his biography.
The FBI is also investigating Allen over his contacts with another woman whose complaints about anonymous, harassing e-mails led to the discovery of the Petraeus affair.
When asked if he should have known about the investigation into his former CIA chief earlier, the president said he is "withholding judgment" because all of the information is not yet available.
"I'm going to wait and see ... how this whole process unfolded," Obama added.
The scandal has threatened to complicate Obama's focus on critical negotiations with Congress over spending cuts and taxes.
It has also raised questions surrounding the CIA's response to congressional inquiries into the September terror attack on the U.S. diplomatic mission in Benghazi, Libya, that killed four Americans, including Ambassador Christopher Stevens.
On that matter, Obama offered a fierce defense of U.N. Ambassador Susan Rice, who has come under scrutiny for public comments in the days following the attack in which she placed blame for it on a mob enraged by an anti-Muslim video.
The president said Rice was speaking with the information provided by the intelligence community and has acted with "skill, professionalism, toughness and grace."
In response to statements Wednesday from Sen. John McCain and Sen. Lindsey Graham, who said they would block a potential Rice nomination for a Cabinet position, Obama said if the lawmakers want to "go after somebody, they should go after me. I'm happy to have that discussion with them."
"For them to go after the U.N. ambassador, who had nothing to do with Benghazi and was simply making a presentation based on intelligence that she had received, and besmirch her reputation is outrageous," he said.
On another pressing foreign policy issue, Obama said he was not ready to arm the Syrian opposition movement, saying that the nation needed to avoid indirectly providing weapons to groups or people who would seek to harm Americans or Israelis.
The United States is supporting a new coalition of Syrian dissidents and is seeking to accelerate assistance in their effort to force Syrian President Bashar al-Assad to leave office.
On budget matters at home, Obama opened the door to compromise regarding the impending fiscal cliff of tax increases and spending cuts.
The president said he was encouraged by recent comments from members of the Republican Party surrounding the need for more revenue from the wealthiest Americans as part of a plan to reduce the deficit.
"Both parties voted to set this deadline, and I believe both parties can make these decisions together ... in a balanced and responsible way," Obama said.
Obama stood by his previous statements about tax rates. He called on House Republicans to agree to Senate-passed proposals that would extend current tax rates for those making $250,000 a year while allowing rates to return to higher levels for those making over that amount and insisted he would not accept a lower tax rate for the wealthiest 2% of Americans.
His comments should not come as a surprise, he said, given his statements during the election.
"I've got one mandate to help middle class families and families working hard to get into the middle class," Obama said.
The president is often criticized for not forging relationships with Congress, to the detriment of his agenda. On Wednesday he acknowledged that history and said he can "always do better."
His relationships haven't "always manifested itself in the kind of agreement I'd like to see between Democrats and Republicans," he said.
Obama is set meet with major CEOs following his news conference, some of whom flexed their political muscle to defeat Democrats in elections last week.
He is expected to find backing for some of the administration's positions ahead of negotiations with Congress on avoiding the fiscal cliff. Leaders of the largest companies have indicated they are holding back hiring and spending because they are worried about Washington gridlock over the fiscal cliff.

Indio T Crewneck Long-Sleeve Tee
Nice color, comfortable.
As it is with most of the items we buy from Tommy Bahama, this shirt is comfortable and stylish. It is the kind of product that keeps us coming back.
November 16, 2013
Perfect long-sleeve Tee
The best long sleeve tee I have come across so far. I usually wear medium but Tommy Bahama sizes being a bit big, I ordered small. It is perfect. The neck scoop just right. Sleeves are right size. Length is also perfect, not too short, not too long. The material is very comfortable. Love the feel of it. Something about these tees that make me feel special when I wear them. I have black, navy, red and brown. All colors are great! Looking forward to more color choices ..especially nice purple.
November 16, 2013
Fits great
Without a doubt the best Tee ever made ... I have one in every color..
November 1, 2013
Beautiful color and fit.
I love this shirt. It has a lovely shape and the color I chose is beautiful. Then quality of the fabric is very good, too.
October 6, 2013
My Favorite Shirt
I purchased every color of these T-Shirts. They were a replacement to similar T-Shirts that I purchased from Tommy Bahama several years ago. I was so excited to see that you have these T-Shirts because I wear them all the time. They launder very nicely. I would happily purchase other colors when you get them. By the way, I bought 3 of each color so that I will have this "go-to" shirt for many years to come.
September 30, 2013
Great tee!
I have several of these tees. Nice weight in the the fabric and it holds its shape. They fit perfectly (I like the longer length) and the neckline is very flattering. They will shrink if you dry in dryer, so size accordingly.
September 21, 2013
Comfy Cozy T
This T is so soft and comfy and can be worn both day or night. It feels wonderful on, true Tommy Bahama comfort and quality while looking great on! I love it and will be ordering more colors.
September 19, 2013
Perfect Neckline... Perfect Length
The neckline on this tee is perfect! I work in the medical field, and, sadly, the short sleeve version of this t-shirt (the Indio scoop-neck) is too low cut for work. But, this version gets everything spot on. In addition to the neckline, the length of this tee is divine. And, the fabric is not tissue thin (like other vendors) but a nice substantial weight 100% cotton... simple, yet, classy. I washed this tee on cold and tumble dried on low and had no shrinkage. I like the first one so much, I've ordered another and expect it will be a fall/winter staple. I hope more colors are on their way!

Cal Thomas Still Wrong on Iraq
Syndicated columnist Cal Thomas has written a "Grieving at Christmas" meditation on the pain and suffering of those who have lost loved ones in one or more of the wars our nation has been fighting over the past decade. The sense of loss weighs most heavily at Christmas time, he notes, when an empty chair at a family gathering might be a grim reminder of one who is not there because his life was cut short by a bullet or a bomb in a city or on a battlefield half a world away. It may be "the most wonderful time of the year" for many, perhaps most of us, "but for those whose fathers, mothers, sisters, brothers or children have died in Iraq and Afghanistan there is a void this Christmas, and Christmases to come, that can never be filled," Thomas wrote. "It is the same in every war."
"Newt Hampshire" Paper Rips Ron Paul
The pro-Gingrich New Hampshire Union Leader/Sunday News published an editorial attack on Ron Paul Sunday, calling "Renegade Ron" a "gadfly, not a contender" in New Hampshire's first-in-the-nation presidential primary. Perhaps it's a sign the editorial board is worried that the Texas congressman, who has moved into first place in the latest Iowa poll, may overtake Gingrich in New Hampshire as well.
Mitt Romney: Tom Dewey All Over Again
They arrive now with monotonous regularity. Another day, another announcement by a New Hampshire politician of his or her endorsement of Mitt Romney for President. Former Governor John Sununu. Former Governor and U.S. Senator Judd Gregg. Senator Kelly Ayotte. Umpteen members of the New Hampshire House and Senate. Romney's the one. A businessman. A leader. The one who will create what all America wants — jobs, jobs, jobs! Overseas, seas, seas. Yet the Romney record suggests he'll be creating the jobs overseas, seas, seas, and that's what we'll be hearing from the Obama camp from here to reelection.
Give Thanks — and Act Thankfully
On Monday, November 21, I was chatting with a longtime acquaintance about the anniversary that would fall the next day, on November 22. On that date 48 years ago, John F. Kennedy was assassinated by ... well, there's the rub. For skeptics, the official version of Lee Harvey Oswald as the lone assassin still rings hollow.
U.S. Foreign Policy: Seeing and Believing
Millions no doubt have read or heard the Hans Christian Andersen tale of how some alleged weavers of long ago convinced their emperor that the new clothes they were selling him were made of such fine and rare material that only the stupid and incompetent could fail to see the exquisite threads. The emperor, not wishing to be exposed as either stupid or incompetent, bought the story and the invisible "clothes." He wore nothing else as he went though the streets in a grand parade, hearing nothing but praise from his subjects on the excellence of his royal attire. Until one simple, unschooled child broke the spell by crying out the simple, unadorned truth: The emperor was wearing no clothes at all.
Romney Has Shovel-ready Rhetoric for Schools
It's amazing that most of the presidential candidates manage to find time to run for president when they're so busy running for national superintendent of schools. Republican candidates typically tell us in one breath they want to get the federal government out of education and in the next that they have some really swell ideas for educational reform they'd like to implement (impose?) once they're in charge of the federal government.
Does Anyone Understand the Law?
Do we really understand what courts are for in America? I mean, do even really smart, educated people like (I realize I'm going out on a limb here) lawyers and people with prestigious titles like "U.S. Senator" in front of their names really understand and appreciate the role of the courts? Or does it all get run over and crushed by the pressure of politics?

A Memorial Day Resolution: Add Fewer Graves
Another Memorial Day has arrived and I again have it in mind to finally get to the end of a book I have begun reading several times but never finished. It is David Halberstam's Pulitzer Prize-winning account of how our nation got bogged down in what might be called the Q (for Quagmire) War — World War 'Nam in Southeast Asia. Before I had reached the Goldwater days of my youth, I didn't even know there was a Southeast Asia. I was hardly aware of Asia at all. But once I learned our fellow Americans were fighting Communist aggression there, the righteousness of the war appeared self-evident. In the words of a song that became a hit in the 1960s, the young men of my generation heard the sound of "Distant Drums."
Will Killing Osama Be a Boon to Obama?
I recall encountering, in the misspent days of my youth, a comic book character who had come up with an ingenious way to break the habit of eating between meals: He would simply never stop eating, in which case there would be no "between meals." Unfortunately, some have given up drinking in similar fashion. The late Sen. Paul Douglas of Illinois long ago compared most alleged fiscal conservatives to reformers who cry out for temperance "in the intervals between cocktails." Little has changed since then, save perhaps the brevity and infrequency of the intervals.

Burn calories, generate electricity at innovative Scottsdale fitness center
March 21, 2012
Contact: Kelly Corsette, communications & public affairs director,

Burn calories, generate electricity at innovative Scottsdale fitness center
A new fitness center opening near Scottsdale Road and Shea Boulevard this weekend is as green as they come.
Billing themselves as Arizona's first eco-friendly fitness center, Off the Grid Fitness reused as much construction material as possible when creating their new location at 10050 N. Scottsdale Road. The facility features products manufactured from recycled material throughout, including remanufactured gym equipment. Off The Grid's owner, Eric Guilleminault, is even encouraging neighboring businesses to join in recycling at their retail center.
But what sets Off the Grid apart from other green businesses is the fact much of their exercise equipment actually generates electricity as people are burning calories.
"Most of our cardio machines are either self-powered or wired to return energy back to the grid," says Guilleminault. "This means that the energy of the person on the cardio machine is actually producing is actually helping provide power to the gym or even someone else in our city."
Scottsdale Mayor W.J. "Jim" Lane, who will attend a ribbon cutting at Off the Grid at 9 a.m. Saturday, March 24, thinks the new businesses is a perfect fit for Scottsdale.
"Scottsdale is home to many innovative companies, but Off the Grid Fitness takes that to an entirely new area," says Mayor Lane. "It's one thing to say you are a green company, but it's something entirely different to create a fitness facility where patrons can actually generate electricity back to the grid. That's really something unique, and just the kind of innovation we welcome in Scottsdale."

Will Juki-Sony Talks Get Others Going? |
Industry chatter has long said M&A activity among the major placement companies is inevitable. Yet throughout the gut-wrenching downturn of 2001-02, the widespread pause in 2008-09, and the subsequent fallout starting last spring, nothing concrete took place. Sure, a few companies have changed hands -- Mydata was bought out by Micronic, Dover divested Universal Instruments to Francisco Partners, which in turn sold it to Patriarch Partners, ASM took Siplace off Siemens' hands, and H2 Equity Partners did the same for Philips with Assembleon. But there are more than 25 pick-and-place OEMs around the world, and despite fierce competition the number is actually growing. Today, Juki and Sony announced the signing of a non-binding memorandum of intent to discuss the possible integration of their respective surface-mount technology equipment and related businesses. Will this finally get things rolling? Under the MOI, Sony and Juki would integrate their SMT businesses under a newly established company, whose name is yet to be disclosed. Both companies are ponying up cash for the "startup," Juki presumably providing the lion's share as stands to receive two-thirds of the shares in the new venture. The deal could be consummated by September if everything holds up. It's unclear what a merged entity's worldwide market share would be, but I suspect it would be the largest in the world. Juki currently is neck-and-neck with Yamaha and Fuji in Asia, and is probably the current leader for new units sold in the US. Sony hasn't been able to penetrate the US, but has done well in Mexico, where many Japanese OEMs have or had larger factories. It also sold thousands placement machines to Foxconn, reportedly as part of a an arrangement under which Sony outsourced production of various consumer electronics. Latin Americas is up for grabs. Siplace and Assembleon continue to hold sway in Europe, but others have made inroads of late. This could also affect Juki's deals as a full-line distributor for other suppliers. Sony currently makes everything from screen printers to placement machines to AOI. Juki resells printers (GKC) in the Americas and Europe, as well as various soldering equipment lines. The bigger question, however, is will this spur other M&A? Not many companies align so neatly as Juki and Sony. So while many placement companies have been on the block for some time, and the lure of better share, less competition and -- hopefully -- greater margins is always on the CFOs' minds, the merging of differing technology, approaches and cultures (not to mention the acquisition price) haven't been enough to seal any deals thus far. And we don't see that changing any time soon. |

Escape Surfboards wrote:Hi,
This is true there is an another option that gives a high strength to weight ratio with a feel of a PU board. Yes here it is the sales pitch but it does make sense. At our factory in North Cornwall we manufacture custom boards using EXPS blanks and laminating in Epoxy. EXPS Blank info ( Extruded Polystyrene)- CLOSED CELL FOAM STRUCTURE (AIRTIGHT/WATERTIGHT) LIGHT-WEIGHT! EXCELLENT APPEARANCE. BRIGHT WHITE FOAM. HIGH STRENGTH TO WEIGHT RATIO. FLEXIBLE AND DURABLE. RECYCLABLE FOAM - ENVIRONMENTALLY BETTER! This is the building block of your board ,this is key. Then laminating with Epoxy resin its a perfect combination to give you a strong lightweight board. Also you can have an original spray job and not be an Epoxy clone. So you can get a hand made high quality custom board using the best materials that will cost less than an off the rack Tuff Lite ! Yes i am a bit biased i work here and always get my boards here but my board has held up real well it feels lively and looks mint even with heavy use. Happy Surfing.
gillman wrote:they are myths,i have hand shaped epoxy short boards and longboards,they have alot of flex,more so than my polyesters,my epoxies are not floaty either,don't know about the surf techs now,but a few years ago i rode a Surftech fish shape and it felt to bouyant,so there you are try handshaped epoxies!

The possible advantages of using something like Drupal is a dev time-saver. But if we were to develop a minimum viable product / proof of concept / prototype using Drupal, other developers could own copyright to their modules. This means that the product eventually would have to be rewritten to clear copyright issues.
If we take the time to develop the proto with Drupal, add the rewrite time and measure it against just writing a custom application, could we come out better just writing a custom app using something like CodeIgnitor, Zend or Rails?
Also, by building a custom app we know the inner-workings and don't have to reverse-engineer anything nor sift through mountains of sometimes fragmented documentation.
Your candid thoughts are greatly appreciated.

Dimplex Symphony Marana Media Console with Electric Fireplace - Black
The sleek, low profile Marana Media Console (SAP500C) not only puts a flat panel television at an ideal viewing height, but also adds the timeless pleasures of a warm hearth to any home. The elevated smoked-glass top creates a sturdy and sleek platform for the latest widescreen TV up to 60" in size. The black cabinets, accented with smoked-glass doors, provide ample room for storing equipment, DVDs and other media essentials. Best of all, the Marana offers an expansive view of the flame with the new self-trimming 33" landscape firebox. Neatly framed in a stainless steel cabinet, this large firebox features a realistic inner-glow log set, pulsating ember bed, and adjustable light and flame speed control. This fireplace also includes a multi-function digital display remote control.
Symphony electric fireplaces operate for pennies a day. With an average electricity rate, the unit operates for a remarkable 3¢/hr providing all the ambiance and romance of a fireplace. When you choose to activate the heat feature along with the flame, the unit uses approximately 1500 watts of power. The flame uses slightly under 300 watts of power. The heater pumps out an impressive 3,410 BTU's.
LED Inner Glow Logs:
Molded from real wood, the artificial logs in the firebox contain inner LED lights that glow through the detailed cracks in the bark for incredible realismFull Feature Remote:
This multi-functional remote features specific controls that allow you to set and adjust the temperature, brightness, flame speed and sleep timerUnsurpassed Realism:

For the second time in two months, Planning, Zoning and Building Director Monica Daigle has deemed the Longboat Key Club and Resort's $400 million Islandside application complete.
This time, the application makes no reference to modifications of Longboat Club Road or the Islandside guardhouse, which The Longboat Key Association disputed in the previous application.
Daigle made her ruling in a memo sent to resort counsel dated July 16, despite the fact that Icard Merrill attorney Robert Lincoln argued that the plan includes curb cuts that need to be performed to the road.
Lincoln believes The Longboat Key Association (owner of Longboat Club Road) would need to sign off the application to make it complete.
Town special counsel attorney Nancy Stroud, however, informed Daigle that curb cuts to a road do not require the owner of the road to sign the application.
"We are pleased that Monica Daigle has determined the Club's ODP application to be complete, and that she and her legal counsel, Nancy Stroud, considered and rejected the arguments of attorney Robert Lincoln that the joinder of the Road Association was required," said Michael Welly, general manager of the Key Club, in a press release July 22.
The application will now be sent to the planning board for its review this fall. The planning board will be provided a minimum of 10 days to review and consider the application prior to a public hearing.
The decision to deem the application complete can be appealed like it was earlier this year by community associations within the club's gates. If it's not appealed, it will be forwarded to the planning board for review, and, then, the Town Commission for consideration for final approval.

I am very impressed with the quality of this rug. It is beautiful and would cost so much more elsewhere to get this kind of quality. I have it in our foyer and only regret not being able to find two matching in a smaller size to complement this one. If anyone knows of any, please post. Thanks and enjoy!
I bought this for my kitchen as another review said she did. I could not be more pleased with this purchase. Lays flat, looks good and covers a large area of my kitchen. I initially thought this rug too nice for the kitchen area when I unwrapped it. I then realized for the price I could do what I want. i don't think anyone would unhappy with this purchase.
I purchased this rug in black for the laundry area and ivory for the masterbath. The colors are perfect with the granite countertops and complement the accent colors of both areas. Had to use carpet tape on the ends for a couple of days, but they lay flat on the tile floors. Colors are true to the description.
rugs look exactly as pictured. Bright colors -very rich I have them in guest room to protect white carpeting-they give the room a finished look and go beautifully with the furniture-very pleased
I couldn't be happier with these lovely rugs. It was very easy to get the wrapping off and to unroll the rugs. Such vibrant colors. They are easy to clean, too. I have three cats -- enough said! I would recommend these rugs to anyone looking for style durability and price.
Looks great at the foot of my guest room bed. Warm and comfy on the feet.
I just love these rugs. I bought 2 for my kitchen, and they have added so much style and comfort for me. I have a busy kitchen with 4 grandkids in and out and they clean great. I would recommend them to anyone, they are a great value and the quality is really great. The color was really true to the picture also. If you are considering this purchase, I would recommend it very much.
This is a beautiful rug at a very reasonable price. The colors are true to the photo on the website and the quality is great I couldn't be more pleased.
Color and size were perfect . Would order again. Everything I order from overstock is of excellent quality and have recommended you to my friends.
Very happy with the product. Good value for the money

New England Public Radio Seeks Nominations for the 2013 Arts & Humanities Award
New England Public Radio is accepting nominations for the 2013 New England Public Radio Arts & Humanities Awards. Established in 2008, the award seeks to recognize those who have made a positive impact on the arts and humanities, and to bring awareness to the critical role played by musicians, artists, dancers, writers, teachers and cultural institutions in western New England. It is given in three categories: Outstanding Organization, Outstanding Individual and Emerging Talent.
The community is invited to submit nominations for the New England Public Radio Arts & Humanities Award using the form available at nepr.net. All nominations must be received by January 7, 2013.
Members of the New England Public Radio Foundation, Inc. will review all nominations and select a recipient in each category in early January. Recipients will be celebrated at the Arts & Humanities Awards Gala on May 7, 2013 at the Log Cabin in Holyoke. Tickets to the gala will go on sale in February.
"The Arts & Humanities Award is now in its fifth year and we are excited to see it continue to grow," said General Manager, Martin Miller. "The community nominated over 60 individuals and institutions last year, and we're hoping for even greater interest this year."
"New England Public Radio has been interested in our work for the last 30 years," says Bob Cilman, Director of the Young@Heart Chorus. "A piece on Young@Heart by an NEPR reporter aired on All Things Considered in 2000 and it had a huge impact on our organization. We love radio and we especially love public radio. Being recognized by our local National Public Radio affiliate was a huge honor for us."
For more information on the Arts & Humanities Awards, past recipients, and nomination forms, please visit nepr.net or call Vanessa Cerillo at 413.545.9717.
