Yasmin Red is a blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Shiraz grapes grown in the winery's vineyards in the Galilee and the Ella Valley. This light-bodied wine has rich fruity flavors and low astringency and can be enjoyed while still young.
Yasmin Red is a wonderful accompanied to barbeques, suitable for all types of cheeses and Italian and salad dishes and goes down well on every occasion and with every meal.
"Year after year, the Yasmin line from Recanati proves itself to be a fantastic value, and the 2009's are no exception. This 60% Merlot- 40% Cabernet Sauvignon blend is fruit-driven but appropriately spiced with a lovely mocha-infused finish. The silky texture offers approachable, dusty tannins integrated throughout the medium-weight mouth."

3 Tech Stocks Soaring 15% Over Target Prices
Chris is a member of The Motley Fool Blog Network -- entries represent the personal opinion of the blogger and are not formally edited.
When a stock is trading well-above a 1-year target price, investors need to be extra cautious. Analysts can carry great weight in influencing the share price movement of companies. Large discrepancies between trading price and target price signal one of two things: either the market is too bullish on the company or analysts were too negative on it.
Three technology stocks that have a price gap from their target prices of 20% or more are listed below:
Table 1:
Data Source: Bloomberg; Gap as at February 26 2013
These companies are either under-appreciated by analysts, or Mr. Market is assigning too much froth for them.
Which is it?
1) Netflix (NASDAQ: NFLX) shares soared after trading in a $60-range from between August 2012 and late-November. The company traded at around a 52-week high, 34% above the target price of $124.80 recently. Shares were previously weighed down on concern that content costs would not be made up by rising subscriptions and profits. JPMorgan upped its target from $180 to $206 on February 13 2013, rating the company an "overweight."
Netflix offered House of Cards exclusively to viewers. Consumers behave differently when all episodes are available at once: they tend to watch several of them at a time. This could make it a challenge for Netflix to sustain viewers over the long run without continually adding more and more content. Adding premium content has a cost for Netflix. During a quarterly earnings conference call with Disney, Bob Iger, its CEO, said that a movie deal with Netflix would be a "movie play" that would not hurt Disney Channel.
Momentum favors Netflix. Analysts could raise their target for the company as they recognize that renewed growth in subscriptions will support its business model.
2) Investors warmed up to Hewlett-Packard (NYSE: HPQ) again largely because the market was adjusting for undervaluation in other companies. HP is 22% above the 1-year analyst target price. Case in point: a buy-out in Dell raised speculation that HP could sell off its PC and printer unit. It is very unlikely that HP will make such a move, since the unit is worth more being part of HP than being spun-off from the parent.
Nothing fundamental changed for HP. The company still lacks any mobile or smartphone strategy that would excite investors. HP already abandoned both strategies when it took massive write-downs for the Palm unit. HP sold webOS on February 25 to LG, who will use it in smart TVs.
Mr. Market is too enthusiastic about HP, even though shares are deeply undervalued. A lack of any spinoff news for HP as Dell goes private could limit upside in HP shares in the short-term. Still, HP's turnaround is on a multi-year time table. This strategy is centered on growing enterprise software sales. Growth through mobile device sales is secondary, if at all possible.
3) First Solar (NASDAQ: FSLR) shares are 20% above consensus targets. Investors are deeply enthusiastic about the solar energy sector as a whole. Securitization of solar panel leases will make cash flow more predictable, and will benefit panel makers like SunPower and MEMC. Survival of competitors is almost assured, should this financing take place. First Solar is one of the more stable plays in the solar sector.
First Solar could pull back if bullishness for the speculative solar energy plays fades. If that happens, the company could trade down, closer to the lower analyst target price. At that level, investing in First Solar is much more attractive.
The market is clearly assigning too much froth in Netflix, but this does not mean that shares are over-valued. Analysts misplaced the importance of streaming media and the role it will play in growing subscriptions. HP is under-appreciated by analysts, and its earnings beat illustrated how much the market was caught off-guard. HP will continue to be under-appreciated until it demonstrates sustainable growth. This is not expected until 2014 at the earliest. First Solar is a market favorite, which means investors should watch this company for now. A lack of new deals, that ensure more sales for the next few years, limits upside in shares of First Solar.

When Jim Peplinski entered the NHL more than three decades ago, players didn't look to the officials to solve their problems. Rectifying disputes wasn't the referee's strong suit, and the concept of a diving penalty could not be assimilated into the hockey mind.
Players policed themselves – and they, for the most part, respected one another's space.
"In eight hundred hockey games, I don't believe I was ever, even once, hit from behind by another player," says Jim Peplinski, 52, who played with the Calgary Flames from 1980-1990, and once again, briefly, in 1994.
Peplinski and the Calgary Flames share roots.
The Renfro, Ontario native was selected 75th overall by the Atlanta Flames at the 1979 NHL Entry Draft. When the team relocated to Canada, Peplinski became an original member of the Calgary Flames, notching 38 points and lacing the skates in all 80 of their inaugural season games.
The sort of game that the 20-year-old forward encountered in 1980 would be unrecognizable to a rookie in 2013. Today's game is quicker, the players' skills are broader, the fourth lines are more formidable, and a series of rules have drastically reduced or eliminated the game's earlier emphasis on those more ruffian tactics.
"It was a different type of contest back then," says Peplinski. "In the 1980s, if you weren't prepared to fight or to be physical, in many cases, you didn't play. The league has tried to put in rules that make players feel more comfortable. I think that players are just as courageous today, but they are more skilled, faster, and stronger. Hockey, I believe, can be just as exciting today and just as physical, without some of the sideshow stuff. And I'm not trying to take away from career pugilists."
As a Flame, Peplinski found himself enmeshed in the heat and intensity of the Battle of Alberta on multiple occasions, matched up against a seemingly endless supply of stern rivals on the Edmonton Oilers.
"The rules back then couldn't protect number Ninety-Nine, so Glen Sather had to," says Peplinski. "Love them or hate them, they had a great wolf pack mentality. Gretzky was so good that a lot of teams tried to bring the Oilers down to their level by being more physical with them. Calgary wasn't geared toward that mindset. But Sather responded because he had to. Pairing Dave Semenko with Gretzky and Jari Kurri was brilliant."
Peplinski had his name etched on the Calgary Flames' first Stanley Cup in 1988-1989, the year they dispatched the Montreal Canadians in six. However, one of the Flame's forward's most memorable moments took place a few years earlier in the 1986 Stanley Cup Final.
Peplinski and pesky Canadians forward Claude Lemieux came together during a postgame melee. One of the strangest incidents of its time, Lemieux gouged at Peplinski's eyes and then gnawed his finger to the bone. Peplinski skated to the penalty box and exhibited the bloody appendage to referee Denis Morel. As a precaution, he obtained a tetanus shot.
"Claude had been taking some liberties," says Peplinski. "He had been very vocal in that series. Very vocal. There had been a scrum at the end of the game, and I went to Claude and I thought, "Okay, now it's you and me, no referees." I was thinking, 'Will he stand up and go with me or try to get away?' Just as I thought, he tried really quickly to get the upper-hand, and he couldn't. So he tried to gouge me in the face and he bit my damn finger."
During the final altercation of his career, Peplinski got tangled up in another post-game, post-season fracas, this time with Chicago Blackhawks hothead Dave Manson. With his team beaten 5-2, at the final buzzer Manson cross-checked Flame linemate Tim Hunter. Seconds later, Joel Otto wrestled around with Blackhawks goaltender Alain Chevrier and Manson accosted Peplinski.
"I ended up paired with Manson," says Peplinski. "For some reason, he saw the need to fight. It was the last thing I wanted to do, because it was definitely not the time. I kept resisting. Finally, the referee came over and said, "Alright, go ahead." I drilled him. Except for the fight I had with Dave Hutchinson, it was the only fight where I've ever knocked someone right down. I was resisting and resisting."
Peplinski says that the game he played in during the 1980s, while unquestionably a bit more violent, and occasionally a bit more of a spectacle than a sport, claimed a certain honor and integrity lacking in today's competition.
Headshots and cheap shots and the current lack of accountability can be whittled down to an absence of respect and perhaps too much of players' relying on the referee and the rules for protection.
"At times, players forget to adhere to the adage of 'protect yourself at all times'," says Peplinski. You need to be aware that you can be hit at any time. It seems as if that awareness isn't always there now."
Reflecting on all of the names and faces his career has crisscrossed with on the ice, Peplinski, fourth in the Flames' annals with 1,467 career penalty minutes, singles out Behn Wilson as one of the game's primary tough prototypes.
"Behn Wilson was a skilled guy who could default to Neanderthal behavior when he needed to," says Peplinski. "The toughest guys I ever played with were Joey Mullen and Doug Gilmour, against probably Glenn Anderson. After Behn Wilson, I'd say that Barry Beck, Clark Gillies, Bob Probert and Dave Brown were the best fighters. I have to say Tim Hunter was the best technical fighter I've ever seen."
Peplinski says that the purpose of fighting was never – and should never be – about injuring an opponent or absorbing a face full of knuckles, but demonstrating to teammates that you can account for yourself and keep the opposition honest. You win an honorable victory by showing up.
"To me, when Colton Orr fights, and he throws 20, but receives 18, that's not really winning."
His hockey experience has taught Peplinski to accept whatever comes his way and that the most important thing in life is that one faces it with courage and gives it the best effort he has. That philosophy led to the creation of Jim Peplinski Leasing in 1990. In addition to operating the Calgary-based, vehicle-leasing business across Canada and directing a public oil and gas company, Peplinski remains active with the Calgary Flames' alumni association and business development. He keeps active in charitable events and preserves a strong family life.
"Calgary is a great city," says Peplinski. "It's a city where people really work together. While I love the game, I try to get involved in things that are much broader in scope than skating up and down the ice."
Brian D'Ambrosio lives in Missoula, Montana. His book Blood on Ice, detailing the rink life of Bob Probert and the evolution of the NHL tough guy, is due out in 2014.

Alfonso Cuarón's "Gravity" will hit theaters this weekend and it's sure to cause mass hysteria for all those astrophobics out there. Not only is it going to scare, thrill and surely endear even more people to Sandra Bullock's life plights, but the movie has been garnering such early critical adulation that place it square in the catbird seat for Oscar contention. For a thriller with such a simple premise it's quite an interesting level of hype; though Alfonso Cuarón has always been a fascinating and accomplished director so all merit may be deserved.
Halloween season is officially underway! And for all the like minded 'Halloween People' out there this is a time of joy, celebration, and triumph as the waves of 'normies' flock to each one of us for opinions on what to watch throughout the scariest of seasons.
Though we will always have great suggestions and fun picks to throw their way, we're not always 100% caught up to date with the best options during the season. So here at BloodyGoodHorror we have a listing of some of the strongest suggestions theatrically, rental wise, and even the most up to date Netflix Instant suggestions.
For the third year in a row, the editorial team here at Bloody Good Horror has put their brains together to define the best in horror for the year. In 2012, we tried something different, with each writer submitting a ballot, which then became a ranked order of their votes. These votes were calculated (1st = 10pts, 10th = 1pt) and the films were ordered in terms of points earned. With each film you'll see how many total votes it received, as well as how many points it earned. There were 12 total voters, so a perfect score would be 120.
BGH's editor in chief offers the final take on the best and worst of 2012.
1. Cabin in the Woods - Nothing else even comes close to "Cabin in the Woods" on this year's list. Whedon deftly deconstructs the genre while simultaneously reveling in its tropes, the mark of a truly great satire. The only exception? Don't try showing this movie to a non-horror fan, the stares of confusion will bum you out. This one is strictly for us weirdos.
10. Prometheus - Probably the movie that disappointed me the most in 2012. Scott created a gorgeous, sweeping sci-fi vision, but got tripped up by some questionable scripting. Damn near a classic, but instead a hugely flawed and entertaining film.
Joe gets honest, then drops some knowledge -- or at least some dirty jokes -- about the best and worst of 2012.
Moving into the 2012 countdown homestretch, Casey offers up one of the crew's final 10-packs.
1. The Cabin in the Woods - What can I say? This was the most fun I had in the movie theater this year, plain and simple. A great horror homage.
More Twitter jokes than you can shake a stick at? It must be BGH webmaster Mark, with his picks of 2012.
1. The Cabin in the Woods - You could make an argument that "The Cabin in the Woods" is the most pandering horror film of the past 20 years, and I wouldn't argue with you. However, as it turns out, I'll take a brilliantly written, lovingly executed pander-fest over pretty much anything.
Bringing the eclectic thunder, Andy offers a slightly more worldly top 10 .
10. REC 3: Genesis - Every year needs a decent maniac, crazed, blood-soaked zombie flick. This is the one. Extra points for some genuinely tender moments with a relationship that didn't need to be as convincing as what it is. is it dusty in here?
Carly drops by to make her case for the best -- and most atrocious -- of 2012.
10. Silent House - The continuous shot cinematography and solid acting all-around from our main characters made this film an entertaining ride, although the "twist" ending was nothing new.
CC's back, Joe's confused, and we hope you enjoy the new sound!
A movie that has the crew conflicted.

First the pros.
We had late seating in the International Dining Room and found the selection, quality, presentation and taste to be much better than we expected based on other reviews. Our waiter, Dan, and his assistant, George, were among the best that we have ever had. They made sure that our table of six were well cared for and answered all the questions of our four first timers, one of whom is a vegetarian.
The younger set, 23 to 44 years old had oceanview obstructed rooms which were perfect and had very adequate storage space and a room steward that kept their rooms clean and tidy. My wife and I opted for a mini-suite with veranda to give us enough room for all six of us to gather a couple of times during the cruise. Our room steward, Ryan, was perfect, keeping us supplied with ice and fresh fruit and making sure we had no problems.
The entertainment was also better than we had expected. The ship's song and dance group were very enjoyable and the comedian and magician were both very suitable for families in the showroom and for adults in the lounges.
Embarkation and disembarkation went smoothly and were well organized.
The 3 level piazza in the center of the ship was a great place to gather and watch street performers, passenger games and people watching. The pizzaria and the Int'l. Cafe provided tasty treats during the day. The wine bar prices seemed a bit high and wasn't ever crowded.
The cruise price was quite acceptable for the acommodations and itinerary.
The cons.
The breakfast menu and the room service menu were pretty basic and except for the dining room breakfast special was very minimal.
Having only the buffet available for lunch on embarkation day was a joke. Way too many people and too few tables and chairs.
Overall, the cruise was about right for our first timers, who really got into the ships games, room service, afternoon tea, big screen movies under the stars and the ports of Puerta Vallarta and Cabo San Lucas. We enjoyed the experience of spending quality time with family members who have busy lives of their own.
I would give this ship and cruise itinerary a 3.5 out of 5.

Honeywell Launches AIDC Industry's First Web-Based Multi-Vendor Site For Data Collection Software Solutions
ISVstore.com Empowers End-Users to Test Applications in the Cloud Before Making Purchase Decisions
Honeywell recently announced the launch of ISVstore.com, a multi-vendor site dedicated to helping end-users identify the software applications and data collection devices that best fit their business needs. Currently featuring over 100 applications developed by more than 30 independent software vendors (ISVs), ISVstore.com enables visitors to test-drive various software solutions and evaluate their performance on actual mobile computers before making purchase decisions.
"Honeywell continues to invest in technologies that support the ISV and reseller communities," said Mark Schmidt, vice president, business development, Honeywell Scanning & Mobility. "ISVstore.com is the AIDC industry's first online resource that allows businesses of all sizes to test and trial various hardware/software combinations before beginning the purchase process, similar to the iTunes online music store for music and entertainment."
ISVstore.com utilizes Honeywell's Remote MasterMind (ReM) for Mobility device management software to provide users with the opportunity to demo different software applications on real mobile computers. Unlike other online resources, ReM allows ISVstore.com visitors to "remote-in" and test solutions using live data collection devices, enabling a truly interactive experience.
"Our research indicates that the vast majority of Tier I - III global enterprises with a mobile workforce will install new applications, or upgrade existing solutions during the next three years. Yet, they have perhaps too many options to choose from," said Chris Rezendes, executive vice president, VDC Research Group. "Initiatives such as Honeywell's ISVstore.com could help make the process of identifying, prequalifying, and ultimately sourcing enterprise mobility software more efficient and effective for users and their channel partners."
Over the next few months, Honeywell will work with new and existing ISV partners to introduce additional applications on ISVstore.com that will resonate across new verticals and serve global markets. For more information, visit www.ISVstore.com.
Supporting Industry ISV Quotes
- "We have been working with Honeywell for the past nine years and see ISVstore.com as an opportunity to further enhance our collaborative relationship. ISVstore.com provides a unique opportunity for customers to review information and see a working demonstration of a complete hardware/software solution from which to make informed purchase decisions." - Tim James, chief operating officer, Z-Space Technologies
- "We were immediately intrigued by ISVstore.com and see it as a resource that will benefit our resellers and end-users alike. Nowhere else on the Internet can you gather such an in-depth understanding of the data capture applications and devices that are available. With the introduction of ISVstore.com, Honeywell has cemented its leadership role within the AIDC space." - Andrew Borden, director of business development, Alternative Logic
- "The ISVstore concept of a centralized marketplace where customers can easily identify and get their hands on (virtually speaking) the best data collection solutions for their needs will fill a longtime void in the data collection industry." - Steve Bissonnette, president, RedBeam, Inc.

VIRGINIA BEACH-- The Navy was busy Monday dispensing compensation checks for residents affected by Friday's crash of an F/A 18D Hornet on Friday.
41 checks for short-term relief had been handed out by 11:00 a.m. Monday.
"We are committed to doing the right thing to address the needs of these families, who through no fault of their own have endured an incredible hardship," said Rear Adm. Tim Alexander, commander of the Navy's Mid-Atlantic region. "We owe it to everyone affected by Friday's accident to help get their life back together," said Alexander, in a press statement released by the Navy Sunday night.
The payments are for housing, meals and clothing. It will be about $2,300 for an individual and $930 for a spouse/child.
At a noon briefing, the Navy explained the money covers 14 days of living expenses at government rates.
For long-term relief, residents will need to itemize losses and damage, the Navy stated.
The Navy has set up an Information Assistance Call Center for residents with any questions. The Call Center is open from 8 AM to 8 PM at (866) 345-8179 or (757) 444-4557. Counseling and legal services will also be available for those who need it.

Back in Action
A Grace Place was swirling with activity Sept. 16, as volunteers scattered throughout the Henrico facility – some with books to read, others with paintbrushes in hand – to share their time, talents and smiles with others.
It was all part of the Greater Richmond and Petersburg United Way's annual Day of Action, during which some 300 volunteers teamed to visit 20 organizations throughout the region and lend their assistance in the form of 900 volunteer hours. The event signaled the kickoff of the United Way's annual fundraising drive which this year seeks to raise $17 million for the local chapter and the charities to which it contributes.
At A Grace Place, volunteers from Owens and Minor, Sun Trust and Dominion broke into several groups to help clients prepare for a fashion show the next day; host a jazz trivia event for others; paint an area in need of sprucing up; and lend their smiles and assistance to AGP's clients and staff members.
"It's a way for volunteers to get a firsthand look at what they can do for the United Way," said Lynne Seward, CEO of A Grace Place.
A Grace Place, a non-profit organization founded in 1969, provides daytime health services, support and activities for adults who have a wide range of special needs – from those with mental handicaps such as dementia and autism to those with disabilities and senior citizens with chronic conditions. Its 229 clients come from all over the Metro Richmond region, their visits covered fully or partially by Medicaid in most cases and by scholarships in others. Its Board of Directors is composed entirely of volunteers.
The organization considers itself fortunate to have a strong group of corporate partners, including those who visited during last month's Day of Action, as well as Genworth and Altria, Seward said. Local schools, including Collegiate, St. Christopher's and VCU, also send students to research and volunteer at AGP.
"It's great that corporations give time like this," Seward said, gesturing toward a group of volunteers from Owens and Minor as they took a group photograph before setting off to mingle with clients. "They go back to work with renewed energy."
The average client at A Grace Place receives services there for about a decade, Seward said. The organization usually has a handful of open spots, but Seward realizes that for each person it helps, countless others in the community are going without that same type of care. There simply aren't enough options available to provide care for the growing number of people afflicted with various conditions, including Alzheimer's, she said.
"We don't know where [many of them] are getting care right now," Seward said.
A Grace Place is adding services so that it will be able to accept more adults with autism and Alzheimer's. But, "the issue is funding," she said. The United Way's annual donations help – A Grace Place received more than $122,000 during its Fiscal Year 2008-09 – but funding from other sources continues to slide.
In one room last month, clients with dementia listened intently, smiles creeping across several of their faces, as a volunteer read a Dr. Seuss story. The room, decorated in soft tones and with children's furniture, is designed to provide clients with a sense of their own childhood years.
Age Wave Planning
With United Way and Senior Connections, The Capital Area Agency on Aging, leading the way, a number of public and private organizations and businesses recently joined together to initiate the Greater Richmond Age Wave program, which seeks to prepare the region for the anticipated population boom among senior citizens. Projections show that the number of adults 65 and older in Virginia will double to 700,000 or 800,000 within 20 years, creating a broad range of needs – and opportunities.
"We're already not meeting the needs of people today," said Lea Setegn, spokeswoman for the United Way. "What are we going to do when it doubles?"
The project seeks to identify potential challenges associated with the growing senior population – such as the need for affiliated services and long-term care options – identify gaps in the system and make recommendations about how to fill them.
Perhaps most troubling to those like Seward who see the effects firsthand is that most families are uninformed about the options that exist for their family members.
"Families are totally caught off-guard," she said. "People don't plan – for retirement or for their own future fees."
But A Grace Place also experiences the flip side of the growing population. It enjoys support from a number of volunteers who are themselves part of the Baby Boomers generation, Seward said.
"Baby boomers are changing everything that they touch," she said. "We have boomers who come in and don't only volunteer but invent new programs."

Henricus Historical Park to host Publick Day Sept. 20
Citizen Staff Reports 09/15/2014
Henricus Historical Park will commemorate its anniversary during Publick Day, a signature annual event that celebrates the establishment of the second successful English settlement in the New World. In September 1611, Sir Thomas Dale, along with soldiers, tradesmen and farmers, ventured from Jamestown to create the Citie of Henricus. Leaders of Henricus developed the first English hospital, chartered the first college in North America, established tobacco as the first cash crop in Virginia, and created a place where Pocahontas lived and met John Rolfe.
Publick Day will take place Saturday, Sept. 20, from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Admission is free and parking is $5 per vehicle. > Read more.

Hotspot Shield VPN for Windows allows you to access all such sites without any restrictions. With Hotspot Shield, you can bypass internet filters that restrict access to Facebook or other sites at work or school, giving you uncensored access to what you want.
Surf Anonymously

Hotspot Shield VPN for Windows supports encrypted network traffic which secures your online shopping data, passwords, instant messages and more from snoopers. This ensures that neither snoopers nor your ISPs are able to monitor, track or intercept your web activity.

Gamer am I said...
Any word on if they are buffing Ahune for level 80? If not, I will jump for joy, since I had a lot of trouble with him last year. I'd assume they aren't if his loot table isn't changing.
I never killed Ahune at 70, even in my raiding guild that was progressing through BT so I wouldn't call him a piece of cake.
Also I'd be shocked if Blizz didn't buff him for 80 a long time ago. They don't like to give stuff away too easily. A level 80 boss encounter isn't that bad and 70 bosses are practically solo'able (that can't be a word)
And to that extent I really doubt they are going to let him keep old loot tables. Blizzard loves old content but Ahune is end game content, not old content. The achievement is motive enough but Blizz rarely does "just enough" for holidays.

Product DescriptionSometimes the things we appreciate most, remind us of our youth. This is true of Oury Mountain Grips. They have a long history of use for Motocross and BMX. If you grew up torn between mashing pedals or twisting a throttle grip, then having them on your mountain bike is akin to warping back in time to the days of old when you had fewer worries and nothing to do but have two-wheeled fun all day long.Oury Mountain Grips have a blocked design that's as comfy as it gets in a round grip. Known for being durable, we think the basic design adds to their ability to last for years. The wide range of color choices is great for those who like to add some flair to their rides. Just try to remember to get home in time for dinner.

Strengths: The look sorta cool.
Weaknesses: The slip on the bars, even with hairspray.
They're junk.
Bottom Line:
Actually, this is one of the worst cycling products I've ever used, in over 20 years of riding.
I normally use cheap, generic grips (Performance brand, etc), and have had no issues. However, for my latest build, I spent 2x as much on some new Oury grips, because, well, all the punters seem to like them. On my demo ride they seemed OK, but after a half mile on the trail, they started rotating, then my right hand completely shot off the bars, still holding the grip. I finished that lap riding without grips. It was a big improvement.
When I got home, I borrowed some of my wife's hairspray (which I've never had to use before, ever). But even so, a day later, they're as slippery as ever. I supposed I could use 3M spray adhesive, but I want to be able to remove my grips periodically to change up my handlebar setup.

Similar Products Used: Cheaper, better rubber grips.
Bike Setup: Does it matter?
Date Reviewed: February 18, 2013
Strengths: Soft and grippy - look rad... totally eliminate vibration from trails. No more wrist pain... seriously... I used to get a carpal tunnel syndrome type thing on long bumpy descents, but the oury grips have helped a lot.
Freakin awesome. No experience with losing grip in the wet, but I wear gloves... gloves are good...
Weaknesses: If any - the ends have torn after a few drops and they get a bit ratty looking occasionally (but clean very easily, after riding in the rain, they look new)
Bottom Line:
A tip for installing, spray a bit of hairspray inside the grip and slide them on... in a day or so they will be stuck good.
Date Reviewed: January 1, 2013

Bottom Line:
Date Reviewed: August 5, 2012
Strengths: Large size
Weaknesses: 1. The bar end ring interferes with gripping the entire bar.
2. When these get wet from sweat or rain, they LOSE complete gripping ability, and get SLICK. Your hand WILL come off in dangerous sections of trail. It's irresponsible of the company to use a rubber compound that's cheap that is prone to doing this.
3. They will occasionally get water locked inside of the grip, and start to spin on the bars.

GREEN BAY, WI (WTAQ) - The City of Green Bay has been awarded an additional $400,000 Brownfield grant from the EPA for assessment purposes related to the University Avenue redevelopment.
The city is currently gathering public input for the creation of a redevelopment plan for the more than four mile corridor.
Daniel Lindstrom with the city planning department says they are looking to create something more cohesive as the corridor moves from commercial, to industrial, to residential, and back to industrial.
The city was initially awarded a $200,000 EPA grant for planning.
The Brownfield grant program provides funds to disadvantaged areas that need assistance with clean-up of contaminated sites that were once areas of industry or other commercial purposes that are now vacant.
About 50 people gave input Wednesday on what they want to see for redevelopment.
The city is focused on areas related to quality of life, transportation, business, and land use.
It was the second of six meetings.

This review is from: Philips Sonicare HX5610/01 Essence Rechargeable sonic toothbrush
Pros: Love it. The price is right and this brush make's a big difference.
Cons: Flimsy...Don't get me wrong it's amazing and it's not so bad that i say no go. I had an older one one of the first that came out and all i can say is this 1 is just lighter and feel's a bit fragile.
Other Thoughts: But it just do so cheep brush's will cost more then this in the long run and this help's you're mouth so just do it.

Philips re-introduced a flawed design
This review is from: Philips Sonicare HX5610/01 Essence Rechargeable sonic toothbrush
Pros: It's sonicare technology, so it cleans your teeth very well and can even lighten them a shade.
Cons: The issue is that this type of head was on the original sonicare. Saliva, toothpaste foam and water seeps into the interior of the head. It becomes a nasty smelly mess unless you CONSTANTLY clean it and dry the inside. I am shocked they dared to reintroduce this model as it got severely blasted in the past for this nasty side effect. I was not aware at first this was the old model head. Too late now to return but went with a Flexcare after I got this instead.
Other Thoughts: It's roughly fifty bucks. For about 25 more you can get a basic sonicare Flexcare or an equally well designed waterpik sensonic. Sensonic replacement heads are cheaper than Phillips. I went with Flexcare as I had a box of spare heads.

Works very well!
This review is from: Philips Sonicare HX5610/01 Essence Rechargeable sonic toothbrush
Pros: Holds a charge for some time, easy to change heads, heads last a while, easy to use, timer helps.
Cons: Do NOT take the brush head out of your mouth while brushing or you will have toothpaste spraying everywhere!
Other Thoughts: Like the other reviewer said, maybe pick up another couple sets of heads, I'm always disappointed when they update models and quit supporting the old versions.

Worth every cent....
This review is from: Philips Sonicare HX5610/01 Essence Rechargeable sonic toothbrush
Pros: I don't own this model but I have the HX6710 which I've owned for over two years replacing an even older model. Using this type of dental care product has really paid off. I had not seen a dentist in over four years (just been busy) and I saw the dentist a month ago and had no cavity's and all healthy gums. Needless to say I didn't have my teeth cleaned in that time period as well. I now do the cleaning every 3 months but only becuase she, the denist, is good looking, lol. This stays charged for a very long time as well and the heads last a long time.
Cons: None at all.
Other Thoughts: I would buy the extra head replacements now. You never know when a model changes and they are not available.

Rated 5 out of 5Â by green15tt Coolest Shoe Around I have two pairs of Fluxes. They are amazing shoes. Not only do they fit perfectly and feel wonderful, but they are also one of the cleanest shoes available. They are stylish enough, and versatile enough, to wear in any situation and I always receive compliments. Buy these shoes, you will definitely not regret it. August 10, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5Â by Dredog43 Stylish everyday shoe Had my eyes on the zx flux since seeing a Facebook post of a 3-pack in black in the UK earlier this year, excited that they are finally available in the US. I love the simple, subtle yet stylish look. The new navy has a great deep blue color. Great fit and comfort. Planning to wear these primarily for casual outings paired with jeans and a t-shirt, and occasionally while working out. April 13, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5Â by Yoti HOTTTT SHOES!!!!!!! Actually I purchased 3 pairs of different colors at the same time before I purchased the navy blue. Only reason I didn't purchase the navy blue at that time was beasue Foot Action was sold out of my size. I love all 4 pairs!!!! I recently received the email customizing; definitely figured out some different color schemes that I'm interested in. Only thing is I'm od school and am not a big fan of payinng more than $100 for sneakers. If you guys can knock that price down for a long time adidas fan such as myself, I will buy 4 more pairs in the color schemes I made up. Thanks July 16, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5Â by Nubrassgun Going back to Adidas I recently bought two pairs of these, two different colors. Have worn them each for a day plus and one pair for a grouppower workout at my local gym. They feel great on the feet, lightweight and during the workout did not slip around. They do not have the slipper feel of the other Major player as the sole is more solid and allows them to be more useful from everyday wearing to workouts at the gym. I may get another color some day, but for now two pairs will do! May 24, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5Â by Nasty Nate Axe Simple and Sophisticated Very comfortable and amazing styled shoes. The simple design with the technical accents are just what style of today has been looking for. Shoes are very comfortable and roomy in the toe box. The mesh upper is very breathable and light weight. I was really amazed at how sturdy and built the sole is. But the one draw back is the arch area is very narrow with your foot in the shoe. Still feels great overall. April 7, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5Â by CharleyWood NYCE These shoes came very fast which is a plus, the colour I selected was true to what is shown online, I ordered a half size bigger because, I didn't want to have to go through the hassle of sending them back it was smart because with a pair of thick sock just right, I've only wore them once but they were very, very comfortable nice shoe...... April 21, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5Â by Bseymour Confused on size to buy I was skeptical of buying these online because I never saw them in person and I couldn't find them anywhere. But I ordered them anyway. Awesome shoe! Really comfortable. I had to return the first pair because they were too big. I have 10.5s and 11s in Adidas so I wasn't sure what size to get but the 11s were way to big so I got 10.5. July 8, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5Â by Daniel Dinh Extremely comfortable shoes I purchases these shoes about two weeks ago. It feels snug to my feet, and the insole is absolutely comfortable. The design is awesome and I totally recommend this to anyone who wants a pair of easy every day shoes April 8, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5Â by SKinney ZX Flux, comfortable and stylish sneaker! This is one of the most versatile sneakers I've ever owned. You can wear them with shorts, jeans,etc. Nice enough to wear to dress up yet can be dressed down as well for a more comfortable style. I wear mine to work on casual dress down days at my office with jeans and they have drawn a lot of complements, from women! Love these sneakers. I have one pair of all grey and will look to purchase an additional pair in a different colorway! August 19, 2014

Seven things that could have made 'The Dark Knight Rises' better
[Continued] Page 2
The return of Batman needed to be a bigger deal
At the start of The Dark Knight Rises, Bruce Wayne has not been Batman for eight years. The city still believes that he murdered Harvey Dent, and he's spent the past three years cooped up in Wayne Manor, limping around on a cane for some reason or another. The Bruce Wayne we're presented with at the beginning of the film is a broken man. Without Rachel, the love that he lost to the Joker's explosives in The Dark Knight, he's lost his drive. It doesn't help that the Dent Act has essentially eliminated organized crime.
I'm just going to say this: eight years is a long time. If that much time has passed without Bruce putting on the suit, it needs to be a big decision when he decides to put it back on. The cards need to be stacked against Gotham so badly that he is ultimately left with no choice but to stop feeling sorry for himself and be The Goddamn Batman. Instead, the way it's presented in the film, Joseph Gordon Levit comes to him, says 'I know your Batman,' (also, everyone seems to freakin' know that he's Batman in this movie) and asks him nicely to come back, and so he does and has a car chase, etc.
The moment where Batman returns ultimately carries no wait in the film. It doesn't carry weight in the third act because we already saw him do a car chase as Batman earlier in the film, and it's not played like a big moment. The triumphant return of Batman should have occurred at the beginning of the film's third act, when Gotham is in dire trouble and nothing can save it but the Batman. You know, when the stakes are high. The return of Batman after eight years needs to be a 'HOLY SHIT' moment, and it just wasn't.

First is most recent, bottom is least.
The girl with the bird is someone else's character wearing an outfit that I made up for her.
Not sure what else to add. Thanks.
Looks clean and competent enough. What mistakes there are are minor, like the archer figure proportions being a bit off (short body, long arms, a somewhat masculine face), or the moon in that picture being somewhat crowded into the corner.
What do you want help with, specifically?
Visit Chiseled Rocks - my art site · Visit my Conceptart.org sketchbook
Just wanted a second, third or fourth set of eyes. I couldn't see anything super wrong with these so I was thinking someone else might. Wanted to draw some other stuff but I also wanted to make sure these checked out beforehand. Like, next time around I'll watch the proportions more.
If you could elaborate more on what you thought made the archer's face masculine, I think that would be helpful. When I drew her, it was my intention to make her a little boyish or plain. I hope I didn't go overboard.
Well, she does look boyish, so you succeeded.
If you want nipicking, you might move the ear a little lower, though. About 1/2 of its height lower.
And if the picture is digital (i.e. won't be ruined by reworking), try to make her a little taller, with a longer body trunk.
The bow is way too thin in the middle; you might want to flesh it out to give that hand something to hold. Normally that's one of the thicker parts of the bow. (I also notice that she is apparently left-handed. )

if you add another switch it has two positions. one on and one off. how can you add two positions for one switch then only add one for the other? how i stated it is, is what my electrical teacher taught me years ago. he made have been wrong but i bought it. you always have one less switch than the circuit you are talking about. three switches and a load is a four way circuit. four switches and a load is a five way circuit. etc. the load i understand is a necessary part of the circuit. a two switch circuit is called a three way circuit, not a three way switch. the switch is called a three way switch in reference to the three way circuit. with no load, no circuit.
and in addition there is no two way switch. there is a single pole, three way and four way. you can have single pole double throw and double pole single throw or double pole double throw. but i've never seen a two way switch. the only circuit labeled different than my above comments is the single pole circuit. next we jump to the three way circuit. no two way.

I guess it's the same as why I stay with my current guild. I can't make the raid times, so I'm stuck PUGing raids when I can (which isn't that often). My RL friends have all stopped playing or moved servers, but I stay on my server because I like how many people there are. I've had alts on lower population servers, but the atmosphere just isn't the same as playing with 25k other Hordies. And I stay in my guild because I like the "feel" of the guild and I like the people.

More than a dozen people woke up
without a home this morning in Glascock County, where a line of thunderstorms
ripped through the area. This right here used to be Magnolia Baptist Church.
All the way over there is its steeple.
After assessing all the destruction
around Glascock County, the National Weather Service confirmed an EF1 tornado
touched down in Gibson.
"This is a smaller type tornado," said Kent Frantz, incident meteorologist for the NWS. "This is
what we typically do have in Georgia."
But this "smaller type tornado" made some
major damage; ripping across the area with wind speeds up to 100 miles per
hour. NWS says the tornado's path ran 3 ¼ of a mile, causing 150 yards of
damage. Though no one was injured, three mobile homes were hit. One home,
completely removed from its foundation. Another home with an uprooted tree
toppled over it. The third suffered roof and window damage. But the most damage
was done to the church.
"Here at the church, it seems to have
had the opportunity to spin up to its maximum potential, and cause the damage
that you see behind me," Frantz said.
Now a pile of bricks and broken glass, shredded
pieces of wood and scraps of metal. What was once the church's fellowship hall,
is now a pile of debris.
"To have this little church just blown
apart by a wind of some sort…it's just…heartbreaking," said Michael Stewart, pastor of Magnolia Baptist Church.
More than 20
residents in the area were without power last night. And now, the American Red
Cross is helping families affected by the storm.
UPDATE: The National Weather Service confirms a EF1 tornado touched down in Gibson on Tuesday night. Officials say winds in that storm reached 100mph. The NWS used damage to the Magnolia Baptist Church as a way to determine the size of the storm.
The storm left a path of damage estimated at 150 yards wide. The National Weather Service says the tornado did not register on their radar, in Peachtree City. They say the storms that moved through the area Tuesday were low level and fast moving.
Community volunteers will be meeting at the Magnolia Baptist Church on Saturday morning at 8am to begin the clean up process. Anyone interested in assisting in the clean up is asked to meet at the church on Saturday morning.
The Glascock County Emergency Management Agency is on scene assessing the damage from Tuesday evening's storms.
The Magnolia Baptist Church, located on Magnolia Church Road, was significantly damaged. The fellowship hall collapsed and the roof of the church, including the church's steeple, was blown off. At least three homes in the county were also damaged by the storm. Reports say 22 Glascock County residents were without power at the height of the storm.
A temporary shelter was opened in Gibson for residents affected by the storm. The American Red Cross is now assisting those storm victims.A press conference is scheduled for 11:45 Wednesday morning in front of Magnolia Baptist Church to give updates on the storm and damage. FOX54 will be at that new conference and will be tweeting from that news conference with updates. We will also continue to update our website, wfxg.com, all day and will have more on the storm tonight on FOX54 News at 10pm.
The National Weather Service in Peachtree City, Ga. is fielding reports of severe thunderstorm damage in Glascock County.
FOX54 has learned from the on-call meteorologist that residents and businesses just north of Gibson, Ga, are reporting damage from wind.
Some of the reports coming in include reports that the roof and walls of the Magnolia Baptist Church have been blown down.
Other reports indicate multiple homes in the area have severe structural damage.
The National Weather Service is not confirming the damage is from a tornado at this time. Glascock County Emergency Management will evaluate the damage on Wednesday, and determine if an NWS crew is needed in the area to make an official evaluation.

MILWAUKEE (WSAU-Wheeler News) -- The Milwaukee Bucks were without guard O-J Mayo in last night's 114-107 loss to Washington.
Mayo was suspended for one game following Friday night's ejection for punching New Orleans' center Greg Stiemsma. Brandon Knight led all players with 34 points.
With the loss, Milwaukee becomes the first team this season to reach 50 losses.

There's a Valentine's Day gift out there that's put APS on "red" alert so to say. Those mylar balloons a causing a big worry -- if they're not disposed of properly, thousands of people could lose power.
You've found the right card, the gift and paid for it all and the plan to pick up the balloons last.
If not disposed of properly, you may not have known -- those celebratory mylar balloons can cause some big problems if they land in power lines.
"It can go simply from tripping the breaker and a switch to going to being more serious.. because it may cause some damage to our system that we have to go out and repair, so it can be for a momentary outage or a more extended outage -- we want to avoid them all together," said APS' Damon Gross.
APS gave us a tip: attach something like a weight on the end of the balloons.
"Over the last five years, APS has experienced 130 confirmed outages as a result of mylar balloons getting into our power lines. Those outages have affected nearly 100,000 of our customers," said Gross.
A costly problem that happens each and every year, mostly around Valentine's Day and graduations.
Another tip: pop the balloons before putting them into the trash -- then there's no concern for them landing in power lines.

Most of us are familiar with the term climate change but few of us understand the science behind it. We don't fully comprehend how climate change will affect us, and for that reason we might not consider it as pressing a concern as, say, housing prices or unemployment. This book explains the scientific knowledge about global climate change clearly and concisely in engaging, nontechnical language, describes how it will affect all of us, and suggests how government, business, and citizens can take action against it.
On thinking the matter through, it doesn't seem exaggerated to assert that my coming out of the sexual closet, my desire to assume and assert my homosexuality, coincided within my personal trajectory with my shutting myself up inside what I might call a class closet.
—from Returning to Reims
In Giving Kids a Fair Chance, Nobel Prize-winning economist James Heckman argues that the accident of birth is the greatest source of inequality in America today. Children born into disadvantage are, by the time they start kindergarten, already at risk of dropping out of school, teen pregnancy, crime, and a lifetime of low-wage work. This is bad for all those born into disadvantage and bad for American society.
Attempts by local governments to privatize water services have met with furious opposition. Activists argue that to give private companies control of the water supply is to turn water from a common resource into a marketized commodity. Moreover, to cede local power to a global corporation puts communities at the center of controversies over economic globalization.
Today we are witnessing dramatic changes in the way scientific and scholarly knowledge is created, codified, and communicated. This transformation is connected to the use of digital technologies and the virtualization of knowledge. In this book, scholars from a range of disciplines consider just what, if anything, is new when knowledge is produced in new ways. Does knowledge itself change when the tools of knowledge acquisition, representation, and distribution become digital?
Garbage, considered both materially and culturally, elicits mixed responses. Our responsibility toward the objects we love and then discard is entangled with our responsibility toward the systems that make those objects. Histories of the Dustheap uses garbage, waste, and refuse to investigate the relationships between various systems--the local and the global, the economic and the ecological, the historical and the contemporary--and shows how this most democratic reality produces identities, social relations, and policies.
Research in the cognitive sciences has advanced significantly in recent decades. Computational cognitive modeling has profoundly changed the ways in which we understand cognition. Empirical research has progressed as well, offering new insights into many psychological phenomena. This book investigates the possibility of exploiting the successes of the cognitive sciences to establish a better foundation for the social sciences, including the disciplines of sociology, anthropology, economics, and political science.
Daily life is connected life, its rhythms driven by endless email pings and responses, the chimes and beeps of continually arriving text messages, tweets and retweets, Facebook updates, pictures and videos to post and discuss. Our perpetual connectedness gives us endless opportunities to be part of the give-and-take of networking.
In the dot-com boom of the late 1990s, employees of Internet startups took risks--left well-paying jobs for the chance of striking it rich through stock options (only to end up unemployed a year later), relocated to areas that were epicenters of a booming industry (that shortly went bust), chose the opportunity to be creative over the stability of a set schedule. In Venture Labor, Gina Neff investigates choices like these made by high-tech workers in New York City's "Silicon Alley" in the 1990s.
Online communities are among the most popular destinations on the Internet, but not all online communities are equally successful. For every flourishing Facebook, there is a moribund Friendster--not to mention the scores of smaller social networking sites that never attracted enough members to be viable. This book offers lessons from theory and empirical research in the social sciences that can help improve the design of online communities.

Here is an exterior shot of a new townhouse I am listing in Williamsburg in Brooklyn at 94 Jackson Street. I was really excited about photographing this house because I thought the brown siding would contrast really nicely with the warm interior lights - and I think it did!
This is a combination of 3 exposures. The first was taken to capture the sky about an hour before sunset, the second exposure was set to get the actual exterior of the houses just before sunset, and the final was taken when it was dark to get the interiors without any glare.
