Please bring back in Florida stores! I haven't found an herbal tea that I enjoy more than this one. Thank you.
This is such a yummy tea. Why can't you get it back in stores and get rid of a facing of another flavor?
Wish this tea would return to supermarket shelves. Miss it!
Please put these tea bags back in our stores. I love this tea and cannot find any other like it. It has a very distinct flavor and there are no other brands that are on the shelves with Almond tea bags. Thanks!
Fruit and Almond Tea is the best tea and it was a mistake to take it off the supermarket shelves. Please consider putting it back!
I have been looking for this tea absolutely everywhere and had finally concluded it was gone forever. I am glad to be able to order this online, but please sell bring it back and don't discontinue it! It is my most favorite ever and reminds me of happy times.
My mother's favorite -- she introduced it to me in the early 90s. Has been my favorite since.
Don't make me have to figure out how to make this on my own!
I so miss this tea. Please return it to your grocery selections. My absolute favorite, and nothing comes close. With a winter like we have had, I REALLY miss it!
Please bring this tea back! I cannot understand why it has been discontinued in stores. This is my favorite tea of all time.
Please bring this back on shelves!
Please put this tea back in the stores! I have been looking for it forever!
I can't believe you can't buy this tea at the grocery store. This is by far the best tea I have ever had. Please reconsider going retail with it again. Thanks
I'm happy you still make this delicious tea, but would love to be able to buy it from my local grocery, to avoid the shipping charge! I ordered two cases this time, so I wouldn't run out. A friend came for lunch yesterday, and I gave her my LAST fruit and almond tea bag, per her request. I thought I had another box in the pantry, but did not. Please put this back on the grocery shelves! Thanks!
Why discontinue one of the best teas that you have made? This tea is wonderful, please reconsider!
I just love this tea! I wish the retailer would bring it back to the local supermarkets. Buy it all the time!
I LOVE this tea. Fruit and Almond is the very best. I'm not sure why you would discontinue it, but "Please Put It BACK!!!" With love. It is so healthy and good for you. I'm sure Dr.Oz would wag his finger at you if he knew it's no longer available in stores. Please reconsider. Thanks
Haven't found anything else I'd rather drink. Agree with everyone -- please get it back on the shelves or at least give us a shipping break!
This tea is so good,if I give a box of it along with a teapot, I have given the gift of the year, especially since it can't be found on store shelves. But I always make sure to keep enough of it for myself.
This has been my favorite for years. I have searched everywhere for this and just discovered it was discontinued for retail. Bummer..
Judging from the comments: sounds like the company made a mistake taking this product off the shelves. I agree...bring it back to the local supermarkets. The shipping is a killer!
Dear Bigelow, With all the reviews stating that the people want Fruit and Almond back on the store shelves, you still haven't put it back on. Pleeeease let us buy it in the stores. We love it!!!
Love it love it love it. My new favorite!
I tried this tea for the first and it is absolutely remarkable!
It tastes like almond paste/marzipan. It is so delicious.
I agree with the others ... this is one of your best teas and would be nice it were readily available at supermarkets.
There are only 3 flavors of Bigelow Tea that appeal to me and I am willing to buy; Fruit & Almond, Constant Comment and Green Tea. I am so frustrated that I am no longer able to purchase Fruit & Almond at any of our stores. Please direct your marketing and distribution depts. to re-stock this favorite tea so I can continue to be a loyal customer to Bigelow Teas.
I have LOVED this tasty tea for YEARS! It soothes my taste buds whether hot or poured over a glass of ice cubes! I too wish they would make it available in the stores again. But if they did, I would probably buy every box off the shelf that was available! ; D
I have been drinking this tea for at least 15 years. As I don't drink coffee it is my daily morning elixir.
Now I have to pay shipping to get it. Please bring it back to stores.
Fruit and Almond Tea and Almond Vanilla Tea are both excellent and the best i have ever had! Love it!!! Yum! Yum!
This is my favorite tea, and a favorite of all visitors. EVERYONE wants it but they can only drink it at my house! BRING IT BACK!!! Very bad marketing!
I guess this has been said all before. Somewhat disappointed that there is no response from Bigelow, as to why it is not sold in stores any longer. Pls bring it back! Many people can't drink caffeinated teas, & would love this combo of flavors as I do! Pls respond!
I remember this tea used to be called "Fruit and Nut" I think?? I, like many others, have been searching for this for sooooo long! At least it is available online but please bring it back to stores!!!
Eureka!! I finally had the sense to go to the maker and see if they were even making my favorite tea anymore . . and they do!! I don't care what the packaging looks like as long as the content stays as good as it's always been. Thanks for offering it in cases too!!
This is my favorite tea! I used to buy it in the store but can no longer find it in the stores. Thankful I can find it online. Please put it back in the stores as well! It is so delicious and a nice way to relax after a busy day!
I had ordered a case of this tea a few years back when I had discovered it on a business trip in Michigan. Was never able to find it in stores and was so glad I could order it online. Nearly every person that I have shared this tea with has asked where they can get it. Most folks don't want to order 6 cases of tea at a time - wish you could just stock them at our local stores.
I'm thrilled to be able to order this herbal tea online though I wish it were still available locally on store shelves. It's unique and has been my favorite for many years.
Since there are so many other requests as mine, please bring back this tea to store shelves in Minnesota. Thank you in advance.
Have loved this tea for years, especially with a splash of cream and honey. Am glad I can still order it online.
Ah after extensive search, I finally found my family's favorite:fruit and almond tea
I've searched for this.. my favorite tea.. for a long time. I hope local stores will begin stocking it again! Yumm.. can't wait to get this.
Like all other reviews, I'm so happy to have found this online! I searched everywhere for it, only to find online! It is the very best tea and the only I'll drink! Please keep it in the offering Bigelow!
Love this tea, it's flavor and taste. Glad I can still buy it online as it is one of my favorites. Thanks
Please bring this back to the stores !!! It's a wonderful tea that is missed very much !!!
Thank you for your teas :)
LOVE IT!!! This is my favorite tea and I am so disappointed that it is not on the store shelves anymore. Too many "fad" teas ... but not this classic? At least I can buy it online!
this is my all-time favorite tea. It's a good thing i stocked up a while back because now i can't dind it locally ANYWHERE. what gives? Is ordering it from Bigelow my only alternative?
This tea is one of the best herbal blends of all time. Its flavors blend together in a mild warmness, filling your mouth with a relaxing flavor. It's good any time of day and is suited to frequent tea-drinkers, or those looking to try something new. I deeply regret that Bigelow no longer offers this at local stores. I actually haven't seen it in stores for years -- and at least it's available online -- but I'd love to be able to purchase it again locally.
I was so disappointed when I could no longer find this in the stores. I haven't had it for years. I don't know what made me google it today, but I literally jumped for joy when I found out that I could order it online. After reading all the other reviews, I can't understand why it is not available in stores?!!! Can Bigelow give me an answer?
I first started drinking this tea in 1993 but had to quit when I could no longer find it. I am quitting coffee and was so happy to be able to find it again. It is the only hot tea I drink and what a wonderful healthy substitute for coffee.
Incredible tea, my mom would buy this tea when we were young. Brings back memories, taste is spot on, and I was able to surprise her with several boxes.
Very good experience, will purchase more tea very soon.
I'm thrilled that I've tracked down this lovely tea online. No retail stores carry it. My shipment just arrived and I'm savoring each sip!
We were introduced to this tea in 2006 and it has been our favorite tea ever since. For a long time we could not get it but happily we found that we can order it online. Too bad about the generic packaging. It would be nice if at least the name of the tea was somewhere on the packaging.
Great! Well worth months of looking before giving up and ordering.
A patient of mine shared a cup of this tea with me in her home over 10 years ago. It was the best tea I ever had. I have been drinking it and sharing it with others ever since abd everyone loves it.
I am so glad I can order this tea online as I cannot find it in stores anymore. This is and has always been my favorite tea!! Please please keep this tea available!
The tea rating is 5 plus. The generic packaging does not look nice at all in the beautiful wooden tea box from Bigelow that I received as a gift several years ago. Please bring back my favorite tea in nice packaging!
This tea is awesome. So happy to be able to purchase online now. However the packaging is not "Plain" as they put it. Its got "Sample product not for resale" written all over the boxes and the foil wrappers the tea comes in are blank, doesn't even tell you the name of whats in it. Don't let the picture fool you.
This has been my favorite tea for many years! I was so excited a few years back to find it online and have been ordering it ever since. Now the best thing to do would be to make it in a K-cup! Heaven on Earth! Pleeaasse and Thank you Bigelow!
The fruit and almond tea is absolutely my favorite - why can't we find it in stores?
This is my most favorite tea in the world!!!!
My favorite. Even though I would love to see it on store shelves, I am so thankful i can still buy it here.
Finally i have found this tea! It was my favorite for years but then I couldn't find it anymore. I searched years for it and finally found it here!!! Thank you for having some sense in putting it on your website!!!!!!!
My wife and I are tickled to see that Someone at Bigelow realized what a huge mistake had been made taking this one off the market! This is one the BEST TEAS of all time!!
Thanks again for bringing it back..
I have loved this tea for about 15 years. I was very disappointed when I couldn't find it in stores anymore. Thank you for continuing to sell it on line. Although I wish it wasn't packaged generically because I love to give it as gifts. Thanks
This is my favorite tea of all time. I am thrilled that it is available online. Thanks for giving all the Fruit & Almond fans a chance to continue to enjoy this unique and marvelous blend.
I have started using fruit and almond as an alternative to the wonderful vanilla almond tea that bigelow used to carry. It is very nice.
I like this more than ANY other flavor of tea! And I have introduced it to multiple family members who feel the same way. I was sad when we could not longer buy at the store, but glad when I found I could buy online, and in bulk! Please KEEP this flavor available!
Before i was searching all over the net to find stores that still had stock in this flavor. I am so excited it is back! I can't imagine a morning without it!
I have loved this tea for years and was so sad it was discontinued. Please consider bringing it back to the grocery aisles! But at least keep it available on-line...forever! Thank you.
I stopped looking for this after it was discontinued and I bought 6 cases. I am down to the last few boxes, and my boyfriend's boys have taken a liking to it, so I looked one more time to find some more. As one of the first to post my disappointment to their blog, I was thrilled to find that Bigelow brought it back! It is amazing and there is no substitute. Thank you, Bigelow!
My mother, my sister, and myself all love this tea. So great to find it online :)
I cant start my day without this tea! Its even great made into iced tea in the summer.
So glad to see Fruit & Almond Herb tea back on your list. It's the best tea I have ever had. Thank you so much
Wow, I thought my grandma and I must have been the only ones who love this tea since they quit selling it in the stores. Glad they still sell it online, at least, and that others love it too.
Thank you for making this tea blend available on your website. I was disappointed when it was discontinued at the grocer's. I am extremely grateful to be able to purchase online. Thank you!!!!
this is the best tea ever. i was so upset when it was no longer available in stores in my area but then excited when i found it online. thank you for this delicious soothing tea. it is a pleasure year round.
I'm not supposed to have caffeine and I adore this tea! I've been searching for it everywhere since running out of my "stash". So glad I found it here! I'd be devastated if they discontinued it altogether. Bigelow, PLEASE keep this tea available; it's your best (among some excellent teas)!
I love this tea but have not been able to find it in the stores. Thanks for having it available on-line.
I never enjoyed tea as much as this flavor. It is exquisite in taste and the aroma about relaxes me before the first taste..If one never understood the a tea drinker, this would truly win them over,....
This tea is fantastic! It's the perfect amount of fruitiness and it has a great almond flavor. It's the perfect tea for winter and summer. Thank you for making it available online! I love it!
I am something of a tea connoisseur and out of the many hundreds of tea I have sammpled this has always been one of my favorites. Its also versitile; it can be added to other teas to add more depth or complexity.
I adore this tea but rarely see it here in New York, so I purchase it by the case from online. Perfect in the summer or winter. Delightful late at night when you want something but are trying to resist the cookies ^_^. When the Winter 2010 Bigelow catalog came, it wasn't on the order menu in the middle. I had to rush online to make sure the best all around non-black tea wasn't discontinued. I'd be heart broken! Love it! Get a case of Fruit & Almond, you won't be disappointed!
I use 1 Fruit and Almond teabag in every pitcher of iced tea that I make and everyone says it is their favorite iced tea! So glad I was able to find it online when I couldn't find it anymore in any of the stores.
I am a big tea drinker, and this is by far the best tea I've ever had. I never add anything (i.e. milk, sugar, etc.) to my tea and this tea tastes sweetened, even though it isn't! Please, please, please don't discontinue this tea!!
This is by far my favorite tea. I've been drinking it for over 10 years. I recently had my gallbladder out and this tea helps my stomach settle. I can substitute this tea for a dessert when I'm dieting. Please don't stop making this tea. Other manufacturers try to make almond teas but they are terrible. This is the only enjoyable one!
This is my absolute favorite Bigelow herbal tea. When my local grocer quit carrying it I switched to Mint Medley, but I just hadda have my Fruit and Almond! I ordered it through the store several times, but with "customer service" being like it is, I decided to go online and order direct. Can't wait to receive it and brew up a pot.
I haven't been able to find Fruit and Almond tea anywhere in New Mexico for years, so I have been buying it online for years, several cases at a time. My grandkids call it "Nana Tea". They all love it too.
I've been buying online since this was discontinued from stores. I'v gotten spoiled - I do not really like any other kind. They really should bring this one back. It is the best all around.
we were down to our last box
can not understand why it is not in stores they could never keep it on the shelves
so happy that we can get favorite tea again
Though I've tried dozens of teas, Fruit & Almond is my all-time favorite because of its smooth, mildly sweet flavor and wonderful almond butter aroma. Getting near the end of my stash, I looked through several stores for more and couldn't find it anywhere. I was delighted to find it here! Wish it could get back into the stores but, if not, please keep it available online as it seems so many customers hope to continue enjoying this flavorable tea through the decades to come.
I am so happy to have found I can purchase this on line. I fell in love with this tea several years ago & it is by far my most favorite Bigelow flavor! It is just "dee-lish". Hope to see it back in stores someday.
I drink this tea exclusively. I was so sad when it was taken off the market but I'm very grateful to Bigelow for offering it online. It wakes me up every morning and relaxes me after work. I'm totally spoiled by its aroma and light, fruity taste. I cana't imagine why it's not a huge seller in the stores.
This is the best tea that I have ever had. Nothing can compare!!! For some reason, Bigelow discontinued store sales
Please, please bring it back. You would benefit greatly to do so as many miss it.
I cant believe that I have just placed an order for a 5th case. When I travel I take some with me. My family buys it for me for holidays. I think it is awesome. Wish it were at the stores again. This is just good stuff.
Phyllis R. Hutto, TX
If you enjoy the flavor of almond, this tea is absolutely the best. With the fruit blend and the slight almond taste of almond,it is delicious and so soothing. I have not been able to find it on the shelf for the last 3 months and am on my last box. I was delighted to go to the Bigelow Tea site and find it here. Thank you for continuing to make this tea available.
I have loved this tea for years and was sad to see it leave the shelves of the stores. I am delighted to once again see it listed among the others. Thank you so much. It is the best tea and most satisfying I've ever had.
This is the best tea I've ever had. I wish it were available at my local grocery store. I've tried many many teas trying to find a substitute, but I have failed miserably. Lots of wasted, unsatisfactory teas.
This tea used to be in grocery stores and is now only online-it is the best flavor in decafinated teas-perfect as iced or hot- it is very flavorful with a smooth,even taste. Bigelow need to bring this back to the Grocery stores!!
This is the best tea I have ever tasted.
My friends and I love it. Been drinking it for 15 years until not available in the stores.A dear friend ordered it for me 2 years ago and I thought it was the last available. It is the only thing that soothes me and I can find no other tea that is so wonderful.
This tea is absolutely delicious! But it has not been able to be purchased in stores.
This has been my favorite tea for 20 years. A few years ago, Bigelow discontinued it and I bought 2 cases, which I have been saving for special days. Thank you for bringing this wonderful tea back.
I wish Bigelow would bring the Fruit and Almond back to the stores... this is the most amazing tea. Wonderful subtle flavor and aroma... very soothing. I've already ordered from this website, and may have to again. This is a favorite amongst my co-workers when I share! My husband is not a tea drinker, and even he comments on the wonderful light almond aroma. HIGHLY RECOMMEND....
This is my FAVORITE bigelow herbal tea and unfortunately is no longer sold in stores. Everyone I've ever given a sample bag to LOVES it! The smell is delicious and the color, when fully steeped, is a lovely almond brown. It has more body and fullness than most herbal teas and the chicory gives it a deeper flavor. It smells wonderful but is not artifically sweet. It is a GREAT after meal substitute for coffee and as a stand alone beverage anytime, but especially in the evening as a wind-down-the-day celebration!
This is one of the most delicate almond (cherry) flavored tea I've tasted. I have not been able to find any other Tea that even comes close to this flavor. I absolutely love this Tea!
The aroma and taste of this tea is the best I have ever had. After dinner it is the best compliment with any kind of dessert.
I don't understand why it was taken off the market, but I am so happy I can still get it online.
Thank you,
ep (NY)
I love this tea! Unfortunately it is very hard to find in stores.

Sugar Land, TX
One of my friends gave me a fruit and almond and my goodness, it was so delicious! It's sweet and nutty and the almond almost gives a creamy taste to the tea. A complete recommendation and now my favorite tea. Thanks Bigelow!

Patent offices coming to Silicon Valley, 3 cities
Monday - 7/2/2012, 1:58pm EDT
NEW YORK (AP) - The federal government is opening regional patent offices in Silicon Valley and three other areas as part of efforts to reduce a backlog and hire experts not willing to move to the Washington area.
The U.S. Commerce Department previously announced plans to open a patent office July 13 in Detroit. The other two are in the Dallas and Denver areas. No additional dates were given.
The selection of Silicon Valley underscores the growing importance of patents in high-tech innovation. Phone makers, for instance, have been suing each other over the originality of designs and concepts. Yahoo and Facebook also have lawsuits over social-networking technology.
Having experts review patents in the field could speed approvals. It's not clear whether they would help reduce broad patents that have triggered legal disputes.

Cross-Lingual Word Sense Disambiguation
Time: 01:00pm - 02:00pm
Place: Memorial Hall 401
Can Liu and Alex RudnickAmbiguity is a nature of human languages, and Word Sense Disambiguation is important for many applications such as information retrieval, question answering and speech synthesis. Because of its moderate performance, WSD hasn't been widely integrated into these applications yet. However, machine translation is an exception, WSD has been used to pick the appropriate target language word.In this talk, we will present our systems that participated in the SemEval 2013 competition. Here English is translated into five target languages: French, Italian, Spanish, German and Dutch. One of our systems made use of only source language features, and the other two included translations of four other languages as well, the most interesting one uses a Markov Network. We will present the three models, preprocessing steps, training/testing, and discuss the results.

Auditory perceptual learning: Factors that drive and prevent perceptual learning
Time: 01:30pm - 03:00pm
Place: Psychology 128 (Conference room)
Beverly Wright (Northwestern University)Performance on many perceptual tasks improves with practice even in adults, indicating that our sensory systems are not rigid but rather can be changed through experience. My coworkers and I have been investigating the factors that drive and prevent perceptual learning on auditory skills, including how those factors change with age and are affected by sensory and cognitive disorders. Conclusions drawn from learning on fine-grained auditory discrimination tasks have held for visual and speech learning, suggesting that common principles are at play across multiple domains. Knowledge of these issues will lead to more effective training strategies to help restore perceptual abilities in people with perceptual disorders as well as to enhance those skills in people with normal perception.

Acquisition of /l/ in the L2 Spanish of native English learners
Time: 02:30pm - 04:00pm
Place: Ballantine Hall 205
Megan SolonThe voiced alveolar lateral phoneme /l/ has two main realizations in American English: a "light" variant that occurs in prevocalic positions, and a "dark" or "velarized" variant that occurs in postvocalic positions (Olive, Greenwood, & Coleman, 1993: p. 24). The phonetic inventory for /l/ of Spanish only contains a "light" variant (Hualde, 2005). Given this difference, and the frequent claim by Spanish pronunciation manuals that interference of the dark [ɫ] in learner Spanish contributes to the percept of foreign accentedness (e.g., Schwegler, Kempff, & Ameal-Guerra 2010), the present study investigates how English-speaking learners of Spanish as a second language (L2) produce the phoneme /l/ in Spanish, and how the phonetic features typically associated with the dark [ɫ] are modified as proficiency (i.e., class level) increases. The participants were 30 learners of Spanish, 10 from each of three levels of study (beginning, low-intermediate, and high-intermediate), and 10 native speakers of Spanish. Each participant completed a 25-question multiple choice proficiency test, a background questionnaire, and a word list and sentence creation task designed to elicit samples of /l/ in a variety of contexts in both semi-spontaneous and reading styles. Measures of the second formant (F2), related to tongue position, were extracted, analyzed with Praat, and normalized. The dependent variable was the F2 value which indicates realization of /l/ along a continuum of velarization (cf. Recasens, 2004). The five independent variables were i) position of /l/ in the syllable, ii) position of stress, iii) place of articulation of the following segment, iv) preceding vowel quality, and v) existence or not of a cognate in English. Tokens of /l/ in similar contexts were elicited from English word lists to allow for a comparison between the formants values in the L1 and L2 of each participant. This talk will discuss preliminary findings for /l/ production in L2 Spanish as well as plans for the expansion and refinement of this project that are currently underway.

News Release PRESS OFFICE WISCONSIN
SBA Announces Full Compass Systems is Part of 'SBA 100'
SBA 100 highlights businesses that are growing, creating jobs with SBA assistance
Fully Compass Systems, located in Madison, WI is one of the SBA 100 companies. Full Compass, a nationwide mail-order company that specializes in professional audio, professional video, A/V, lighting and musical instrument sales, was announced as part of the 'SBA 100.' After receiving an SBA loan, the company increased revenue, expanded their facility, and hired 185 employees.
The SBA 100 features one hundred businesses that have created at least 100 jobs since receiving SBA assistance. Descriptions and a photograph gallery of Full Compass can be found at www.sba.gov/sba-100/full-compass-systems. Each of the SBA 100 companies can be found at www.sba.gov/100.
"While we are busy helping small firms start and grow every day, it's important that we celebrate the job creation produced by firms that received SBA assistance like Full Compass," says SBA Regional Administrator Marianne Markowitz, "We are truly proud of this company's success and the role we played in it".
"Full Compass Systems is an example of how small business growth creates jobs helping the U.S. economy. SBA is proud to have played a role in their growth", said Eric Ness, Wisconsin SBA District Director.
The SBA 100 companies include businesses in a variety of industries, from manufacturing, to food and beverage, to shipping. Each business received SBA support in the form of capital, contracting, counseling, or investment before going on to create at least 100 jobs.
The SBA provides small businesses with the tools and resources they need to grow and create jobs. The SBA 100 is a cross-section of the diverse array of businesses that stand to benefit from SBA assistance. With the help of SBA, the SBA 100 companies have succeeded and created thousands of jobs across America.

Vintage wooden crates salvaged from apple orchards in France. These vintage crates are handy for storing fruit, vegetables, records, CDs, children's toys and just about anything else you can think of that would look good in authentic rustic crates. An old wooden crate has real character so can also be a useful prop for industrial, agricultural or urban themed events and shop windows. They are also popular lined and used outside as planters or for storing garden tools in a shed. The crates typically have old printing on them, but not always. Please add a note at the checkout if you have a preference. If you are looking to buy crates that are cleaner, stronger and newer, then our wooden storage boxes are another option worth considering. Typically 55 x 37 x 30cm, but dimensions can vary slightly as they are all genuine used fruit bushel boxes. To see examples of how these crates can be used, please see our vintage crate gallery. 1 crate £183 crates £50
Knowing how to store fruit and vegetables is an important skill that we should all seek to acquire. Anyone who has a plum tree or grows runner beans will know what I mean. Once they are ready for picking, they come faster than you can possibly consume them!These crates are ideal for apples and pears. Store only perfect specimens (what they say about one bad apple is true), wrap them in paper and place gently in the crate. Store somewhere that is cool and frost free. If you need more advice, Piers Warren's book How to Store Your Garden Produce is well worth a look.

Ingle got to speak to Ermey for just 10 minutes, but the film school graduate said it was worth the wait.
"What a gentleman," Ingle said, moments after walking away from the meeting, smiling and wearing dark-rimmed glasses. "I've been waiting to ask him a question for years, and I just did and he answered it. It was great."
Ingles asked Ermey about how the actor got the role of Gunnery Sgt. Hartman it the 1987 film Full Metal Jacket. Originally slated to be an advisor to the film, insuring it was true-to-life, director Stanley Kubrick liked Ermey for the role and offered him the acting job, Ermey said.
"A lot of the people are under the misconception that I stumbled into it, but it was my fifth show," Ermey said, pointing out that he had already been acting for two years.
According to his official website, Ermey, a real-life drill instructor, enlisted in the Marine Corps in 1961 and served 15 months in Vietnam before he was medically retired in 1972 due to injuries he received during his tour.
Ermey came to Anniston Saturday for the grand opening of Creedmoor Sports, a company that manufactures competitive shooting gear. The business, which is near the McClellan Park Medical Mall and Meeting Center, recently relocated from California.
The line outside the new store at the manufacturing business seemed to stand still through the afternoon, but the people who met Ermey didn't complain.
Creedmoor General Manager Dennis DeMille said Ermey ended up at the grand opening because he and DeMille are friends and are on the same competitive shooting team.
The actor spent several minutes with each visitor, taking time to sign multiple copies of his photograph for some people. Others brought their own items for Ermey to sign, a copy of the movie Full Metal Jacket, a wooden gun frame.
Austris Stack and his wife, Elaine Stack, came to meet Ermey with their daughter and son-in-law. Austris carried an green notebook for Ermey to sign. Austris said he received the notebook when he joined the military.
"I'm out here because he is a service member, and I believe in what he stands for," Austris Stack said.
While many of the people in line outside at Creedmoor Sports Saturday know of Ermey because of his acting, several said they appreciate him because of his support of the Second Amendment. Ermey has served on the board of directors for the National Rifle Association, and in 2012 he appeared in an ad for the group's "Trigger the Vote" voter registration drive.
Mike Sessa, an autoworker from Pell City, said his visit to the opening Saturday was his third time meeting Ermery.
"He is a great man," he said. "He stands for what America stands for … God, guts and guns."

This large Indian Ocean island currently has 19.6 million inhabitants on a surface area of 587 000 km2
Madagascar is one of the poorest countries in the world, ranking 150th in the 2004 UNDP Human Development Report. Its per capita income is about $ 290 and approximately 70 percent of the population lives below the poverty line. The prevalence of malnutrition in the country is high with 48 percent of children under five affected. The infant mortality rate is also high, reaching a rate of 84 per 1,000 live births. Education outlook is also poor, with a net primary school enrollment rate standing at 69 percent, and only just reaching 50 percent in rural areas. Population with sustainable access to improved sanitation is about 42 percent and only 15 percent have electricity connectivity.
The economy of Madagascar is mostly dominated by agriculture (70% of the population lives in rural areas), contributing nearly 30 percent to the GDP. The share of industry contributing towards the GDP is 14 percent (with the food industry, and the beverages industry as main sub-sectors), and services represent about 55 percent. During the period from 1994-2001, the economy of the country showed increasing growth trends; reaching an average of 6.0 percent per annum. These were however sharply reversed following the crisis period that began with the contested presidential elections of December 2002 which had serious repercussions on the country's competitiveness, its financial situation and its economic and social infrastructure.
With the aim of reversing the economic decline, the new government implemented measures in various key areas (economic and political stability, structural reforms, etc) which helped the economic recovery of the country and a return to a path of growth. However, the economy has not yet found the path to growth – or at least to a sufficiently strong rate of growth – to enable it to create jobs and reduce poverty. The economy is still facing structural obstacles such as a weak productive base, high vulnerability to external shocks, lack of infrastructure and a poor level of human capital.
The Poverty Reduction Strategy Paper (PRSP)
Following a large and inclusive participatory process, the Government finalized its Poverty Reduction Strategy Paper (PRSP) in August 2003. The overall goal of the PRSP is to reduce the poverty rate by half in ten years, from 70 percent in 2003 to 35 percent in 2013. It will do so by focusing on three main axes based on the principle of public-private partnership:
- restoring rule o f law and ensuring a well-governed society.
- promoting economic growth with a large social base.
- establishing human security and enlarging social protection.

Very impressed with this planter. Haven't put it outside yet but turned on the solar panel while it was sitting in my family room. It was strong enough to pick up enough light that it glowed brightly for over 12 hrs. Very happy with it. I also bought two of the shorter planters. Had a problem with the solar "works" missing from the box but customer service jumped right on it and sent it to me. Unfortunately the light ring in that box was defective but once again customer service jumped right on it and are sending me a replacement light ring.

My pot arrived this week and I was so excited to set it up. I was a little worried that the flimsy box was dented on all sides but there was no apparent damage. Unfortunately, no instructions or paperwork whatsoever. The solar panel is not assembled and definitely not self explanatory so a little direction would be nice. I certainly hope customer service can make this right. No response so far.
Might also mention that the plastic pots are pretty flimsy. I'm hoping a plant and some dirt will keep it from blowing away in a strong Florida breeze!

I'm having a difficult time finding a CPU cooler (air only) that will fit in the DZ77GA-70K board with Corsair Dominator memory modules (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820233229CMP32GX3M4X1600C10 ). The good coolers that I've researched all seem to hang over the first memory slot and I need to use all 4 slots. The Dominator modules are 54mm high, but can be reduce to 43mm by removing the fin on top.
Can anyone suggest a good air cooler for this board and memory combination?
- eljay
Check out the Zalman 9900NT or 9900Max. Both should fit without overhanging the memory slots. Just beware, especially with the 9900Max (135mm fan), they are TALL so you need a case with plenty of room.
Thanx very much for the suggestions. I will look at them. Shouldn't be a problem with the case as I just bought a Cooler Master HAF XM. PLENTY of room.
- eljay
Looks like it has a lot of clearance. I will check it out.
Thanx for the suggestion.
- eljay
Thanx for the extra pic. The XMS sticks are 32mm high and the Dominators are 54, reduced to 43 if the fin is removed. I tried to find more measurements for the Phanteks but they don't list more than the usual and their user manual links don't work. (Their website is not at all well done.) I'll try again tomorrow. It's late.
- eljay
What I liked about the Zalman 9900Max is that it stays entirely within the "footprint" allotted for the stock cooler mount -- so it doesn't overhang the memory slots at all. Sorry, don't have a picture -- but there are quite a few on google images.
Performance-wise with the 9900Max, my i7-2600k stays about 31C at idle and never over 55C on stress test. That is with a mild overclock, all cores running 3.9GHz as opposed to stock 3.4GHz.
The 9900Max footprint is definitely it's appeal. Seems like it does a decent cooling job too. My only real nit is the double sided tape used on the back bracket. Not only does that seem less reliably secure, but removing and reusing the cooler becomes problematic. I may yet go with it because it may be one of only a tiny handful that will fit and it is good at what it does.
Thanx for weighing in.
- eljay
I was concerned about that too -- and didn't want the bracket stuck to the board in case I ever had to replace or RMA the board.
The entire purpose of the adhesive is just to hold the bracket in place during assembly. Once assembled, the tape does nothing because everything is held in place by the screws. So you don't have to use the adhesive, although it does indeed make installation a lot easier.
Just leave the backing on the "board side" of the adhesive pad. You will either need a helper to hold the bracket in place while assembling, or you can hold it in place with several strips of tape (electrical tape should work well) that are easily removed after the screws are installed.
Ah, thanx for the tape tip. I suppose the bracket needs the pad there whether stuck to the board or not just because of the spacing it provides. As my research continues, I am getting ever closer to this cooler.
- eljay
I suppose the bracket needs the pad there whether stuck to the board or not just because of the spacing it provides.
That was my assessment as well, although I found a comment on another forum attributed to Zalman Technical Support saying it was purely for convenience of installation. The bracket goes on the bottom of the motherboard, and screws come through from the top side. The tape is pretty thin, but then the screws don't have a lot of threads either -- so it looked to me like it was best to still have the adhesive pad in there and just not uncover the adhesive on the side facing the motherboard.
Ok, I'll keep these points in mind when I get the cooler. Yes I finally decided to get it! Excellent reviews across the board made the decision easier and easier and I read more and more. The Phanteks that dislikeyou suggested also had great reviews, but for two fans and I would only be able to use one. The Noctua NH-D14 was also a contender because the fan can be moved up, but I would still have to remove the fin on the first memory stick. So the 9900 Max gets the nod because I can use it the way it's meant to be used and I don't have to alter anything else.
It took a long time to get to this point and I greatly appreciate your help and support.

Albany >Restaurants > Fonda
1501 Solano Ave, Berkeley, CA | Directions 9470737.891054 -122.287273

Fun place for drinks – Finally had a chance to come here. I'm very fond of Sea Salt, Lalime's and T-Rex (same owners). This place is busy!! We had to wait almost an hour for a table but luckily found a spot at the bar for a few pre-dinner cocktails. Pricey but strong and good! We finally got seated and orders tapas and small plates. Some better than others but all were pretty good. We went on a Sat night so it may be easier seating on the weekday. Will try them again for sure.
Great food and ambience. – This place was amazing. Top quality. I went there to celebrate my birthday with my sister. We started off with the chips, guacamole, and salsa appetizer. We then ordered the duck tacos (very small, but delicious), the scallops (also small, but equally scrumptious). At this point, I was still hungry. But then came the mushroom quesadilla (they're really empanadas). These were so hearty and filling. After this, we ordered the passionfruit creme brulee. It was amazing! My sister and I practically licked the plate! The service was also excellent. Quick tip: Try to sit in the big, soft chairs. The upstairs room is nice.
Disappointing Friday night – Have been to Fonda many many times before and always left feeling satisfied and fgood about the experience except this time. Four of us went on a Friday night recently and we noticed that some of the items on the menu had changed. The drinks were great as usual and almost perfect. However the food was lacking in taste and quality as compared to the past times we had visited. I am assuming that their chef was out for that day. We ordered more than 12 dishes and the only one that came close to being decent was the lamb. Most of the dishes were cold and the broccoli looked like it was cooked in the morning-- discolored and pale, cold with the garlic soft and soggy-- no flavor what so ever! The fish tacos that we ordered were miserable! They had more sauce than anything else! The spicy wings looked like they were cooking in stale oil for a long time and then dunked in bbq sauce to be presented at the table in a big heap. That totally put me off!
Nevertheless, I would not pass off on this place and give it another try. I really like the service, good bar and atmosphere -- a little loud and might need to speak loudly. The warm chocolate cake makes me want to go back there again and again.
Favorite tapas bar in the east bay! – Any restaurant can put food on little dishes- but at Fonda's you'll find some of the tastiest tapas in the east bay. This restaurants lands on the top of my list of places to eat at when I visit the bay area.
Some of my favorite dishes:
Veracruz-style scallop, seabass and dungeness crab cocktail
Duck tacos with arbol salsa and guacamole
The restaurant generally does not take reservations- arrive early.
my favorite bar on solano – They have a great happy hour- drinks for $5 starting at 9pm. The nice ambience and this drink special make it a favorite of mine for having a couple drinks and catching up with friends. Servers are nice and unpretentious. Some happy hour drinks are better than others, but they are all a bargain compared to almost anywhere else.
It's all about good at Fonda! – A word to some other reviewers: tapas ARE small. They are not supposed to be a meal. They are supposed to be a compliment to an evening of drinking and socializing. That said: yes, it's a bit pricey, but the food is so good -- every single tiny tapas morsel -- is absolutely scrumptious. Michael, manager/host, is always professional and accommodating. The drinks are stiff, unique and delicious. The service has always been good. I admit that my son cooked there for a time, so I probably got some "special" treatment, but my portions were the same as everyone else's and the drinks were, too. This is a terrific place to have a lively chatter with friends, wonderful drinks and truly wonderful tapas. If you want to fill up a bit, try the black beans and/or guacamole and chips, a hearty portion of refried black beans or guacemole with chips is really affordable and very good. The meat and fish dishes are more expensive and lesser in volume, but well worth it. When scallop ceviche is on the menu, do not do yourself a disservice, you must order it. The lamb is awesome, my favorite of the meat dishes. If you like lively nightlife, unique drinks, excellent tapas, and a notch too loud but moody, cozy atmosphere, this place is not to be missed, but do be ready to spend some bucks if you are looking for a full on meal. Cindy and Haig really surpassed themselves with Fonda, and yes, I say this after revisiting many times, even after my son left the kitchen. My only wish is that I could walk home after an evening here, because after two drinks in an hour, you really shouldn't drive.
It's all about the bar! – I've been to Fonda twice this month because I wanted to try everything on the menu. I recommend sitting at the bar, it's highly entertaining and I found that if you ask enough questions about the drinks the bartendress will start giving you little tastes, perhaps to shut me up. The two ladies behind the bar were both very well versed in the recipies used in the kitchen and in their cocktails. The best deal by far is the happy hour margarita (starts at 9pm!) for $5. All top shelf and fresh ingredients -and a heavy pour to boot!
If your not familiar with the menu a little assistance can get you a long way. Asking whats good is kind of silly seeing as everything really IS good on the menu. Asking what may fill you up may be more appropriate. I found that 2-2.5 plates can fill me up. The Prawns are delicious! The Lamb perfectly cooked and I was warned it would take a little longer that the other dishes (about 20 minutes.)
It's a fun, loud, hip enviroment. We were two people and were quickly seated at the bar on a very busy Friday night. If you like quick service and even quicker wit then sit at the bar, the stunning 6 foot bartender had me in hysterics and kept me at the bar two margaritas longer than I had planned for.
Get going!
Excellent food ... just not very much of it! – Went there last night with a couple of ravenous friends. The margaritas and agua frescas were quite tasty, and the food was superb, but the size of the plates definitely left much to be desired. The plates here were smaller than any other tapas place I've been to.
We had the chips and salsa (great), prawns (delicious sauce), tostaditas de carnitas (excellent blending of flavors), grilled skirt steak (wow!), molotes (too salty), and quesadillas (looked like empanadas, but still quite good). We still weren't full by this point, so we ordered the grilled lamb. Service had been quite brisk, so we inquired about the lamb about 10 minutes after ordering, and were notified that the dish usually takes 20 minutes to prepare. This would have been good to know *prior* to ordering. Lamb was a little undercooked, but good, although not quite worth the extra wait.
All told, we did quite a bit of damage and still walked away without feeling full. It's a good place to go for drinks and snacks, but if you want to pay less for more food, try Colibri Mexican Bistro in the city.
Delicious and different tastes! – We like to sit at the bar and watch the food coming out. Love the scallops, duck tacos, tuna on chips, lamb, halibut tacos, and just about everything else. The margaritas are just ok but love the sangria. A bit on the pricey side but perfect when you want lots of different tastes. Michael, the host, is fantastic!
good drinks, but not worth the price – Met a few friends at Fonda tonight for drinks and dinner. The wine list was ok, but they don't have any wine by the glass for under $7. The portions are small- like the halibut for example, which costs $13.50, and not worth the price. Dinner for two was way over $100 with tax and tip. I would go back for a cocktail, but not fot dinner. Also, our server was prompt but not personable.

TEA News Releases Online
Nov. 30, 2010
AUSTIN – More than 1,700 prekindergarten classrooms will receive the 2010-2011 Texas School Ready! certification based on the strong work they have done preparing their students for kindergarten.
The designation was earned by following the performance of students who were in pre-kindergarten in the 2008-2009 school year. The classrooms that earned this state certification were proven to prepare the students with the fundamental early reading and social development skills needed to be successful in kindergarten.
"Strong prekindergarten programs help get at-risk children off to a good start and improve their chances for success throughout their school career. This certification can be used by parents to quickly identify programs that are effectively preparing children for kindergarten," said Texas Commissioner of Education Robert Scott.
Texas School Ready! is funded by a contract from the Texas Education Agency (TEA) and operated by the Children's Learning Institute at the University of Texas Health Science Center at Houston.
Teachers serving in classrooms in both public prekindergarten and private and non-profit pre-schools and child care centers participate in the Texas School Ready! program. Information from the teachers and data from TEA are examined to assess students' skills after they advance to kindergarten.
This year, 71 percent of eligible school district classrooms, 54 percent of eligible Head Start classrooms and 54 percent of eligible licensed childcare providers were certified. Eligible providers are those that participate in TEA-funded early childhood grant programs.
A list of certified classrooms and information about the program is available at www.texasschoolready.com at the link called 2010 TSR! Classroom Certification List (Pre-K 08-09) called or call 1-800-315-7204.
