they should have taken this act on Americas got talent or some other reality show cause they must be the only ones able to recreate this. myself and several co-workers have tried to make this happen on our phones and have had no such luck. ive gripped my Droid X in every way i can possibly think and have no signal bars drop. ive squeezed the droid x so hard i thought i was going to have to call asurion to get a replacement. the other phones weve tried this on have been the HTC Eris, Blackberry Bold, Lg Ally and the HTC Incredible and have had no luck with any of them dropping even 1 bar. maybe Apple has decided to make up the money they are losing on all the free bumpers by do magic on the side... id hire them for my next birthday party

Haha, I love Apple's approach on this one. "Well, our product sucked, so let's point out how everyone else's product sucks too! Instead of addressing our issue and just fixing it with a refresh or something, we'll just bring other phones down to our level!" Haha, so much for people finding an alternative to Microsoft in Apple, because they're becoming the same company. The only difference is, Apple has taken on Microsoft's mentality of the past and Microsoft has taken on Apple's. Apple is the stagnant "giant," and Microsoft is the company working to change their tattered image and improve. Apple may want to be revolutionary again (as much as I hate to say it, the original iPhone was as revolutionary as the cell phone itself). Now, Apple keeps regurgitating the same product repeatedly with a few updates and enhanced features and calls it "new." Essentially, Futurama captured my sentiments on the eyephone perfectly.

I agree, I've not been able to duplicate this either. I've wrapped both of my hands around my Storm to no avail. Did anyone else notice that the iPhone 4G video held the phone for less time? They released it at one bar. I would like to see it held for a full minute and see if it actually loses the entire network. Good Grief Apple, who cares at this point. You've admitted some "faults", with considerable lack of tact and grace I might add, just stop being distracted and move on. You only have 11 more months to work the bugs out on the iPhone 5G...or whatever you call it next year...

I tried doing the same with my Droid X and I actually gain more bars.. LoL I did the test in my bathroom on the first level of my home where i get the worst signal and I can't believe I gain more bars!! HAHAHAHA I don't care about the iphone4, I am really happy with my Droid and in general I get great service with Verizon.
71. acipollo (Posts: 34; Member since: 20 Apr 2009)
I can't duplicate it either. And hey, the call didn't drop!! Haha.

I can't duplicate the issues on my iPhone either. Whata surprise.
79. daloneshark (Posts: 4; Member since: 29 Jun 2010)
LoL, it's hard because the phone is so big.
83. IHatePhones (Posts: 99; Member since: 12 Aug 2009)
I was always told that, "When you try to make someone else look bad, it doesn't make you look any better". I think that fits the whole bringing down others thing quite nicely.
85. PapaJay224 (Posts: 866; Member since: 08 Feb 2009)
This article should read "Watch Apple squeeze out every excuse they have to make up for their botchery." The whole point of Apple getting so many complaints was not because it "was possible" it because the way EVERYONE holds the phone "Naturally" was causing the problem, not squeeze the phone in its weak spot even though youll never hold your phone cupping both hands standing on your head. Apple is killing themselves. There was nothing wrong with the fact that Clinton got a BJ in the white house, it was how much of an ass he made of himself trying to cover it up. Stick to the truth its far easier to remember.

You know maybe apple is just using a signal blocker to get the droid x to lose it's bars. I bet it wouldn't b that hard for them to get one.
2. stilt (Posts: 63; Member since: 13 Jul 2008)
this is dumb as hell look at the guys fingertips he is literally squeezing the hell out of the droid x, who holds a phone that damn tight dumbies. APPLE just accept the fact that you F'ed up. bad antenae back to the drawing board. I tried to duplicate the same thing on my droid x i placed a call and while i was on the call I placed my fingers in the same exact spot as the video and..........nothing still had my signals that was propbably not even the same bar image as the phone, apple you really tried to discredit other devices that should get you a law suit iI hope it does. APPLE COMPLETELY SUCKS TO ME NOW, i honestly did want a Iphone was but since these verizon droids there no competeion in the phone world period and everyone knows it

If it's the point of blocking a cellular signal, gripping the phone tighter isn't going to do anything more than a moderate grip. This video shows one phone will a signal problem. Just because your phone doesn't lose service doesn't mean all don't. My iPhone 4 doesn't drop service when I hold it the "wrong" way, but that doesn't mean the problem doesn't exist with other folks. You make it sound like someone insulted your family or something. It's just a smartphone. I wish people put more passion into things that are important in life instead of trivial things like cell phones. We'd get a lot more done.
8. stilt (Posts: 63; Member since: 13 Jul 2008)
you just contradicted yourself if you were" putting more passion into things that are important in life instead of trivial things like cell phones." you wouldn't have been on this site and commenting on what I said. Now would you? You just wanted some "FACETIME" lol
23. JeffdaBeat (unregistered)
Not so much that. I like the discussion of it. I am tired of the whole, "Apple sucks, Android rawks" or "Fuck Steve Jobs." I don't think that' intelligent conversation. It's not a competition when it comes to the end users.
29. Thump3rDX17 (Posts: 2160; Member since: 10 May 2010)
@JeffdaBeat there is no discussion if people can't freely share their opinions on these sly corporate business moves and user's smartphone experiences, you talk like you get on get on this website for some reason better than everyone else does but the reality of it is YOU saw this article and thought you would get some kind of satisfaction for buying an iPhone 4 if you saw the same problem happen to other good phones. anyway even i've known since i was a kid there are places on cellphones where all the antenna activity is and i just adjusted my hand to compensate no big deal however Apple's iPhone 4 does use an antenna design that's a little more sensitive but if AT&T had a better network than it would be about as irrelevant as "death gripping" a Verizon smartphone. it's just the same old problem but now everybody has found a way to blame Apple for it. that's all.
55. bokfu74 (Posts: 10; Member since: 12 Feb 2009)
I tried this on my BB Curve w/ Sprint and the signal dropped to nothing. The difference is the design. In order to make this happen on my Curve I had to hold my phone in an unnatural way. The iPhone has a rather large footprint. I don't think the antenna issue is necessarily Apples fault but they did overlook the issue with regard to how that particular phone is held. It seems that the issue is more predominant on that device because it is so wide and thin. So they DID mess up. And although the device has an unrivaled interface I don't like it because it still doesn't have the best reception. My phone is first and foremost a phone.
3. jherz6 (Posts: 216; Member since: 23 May 2008)
Oh please give it a rest will you ilovers. I have tried the death grip and my droid x and its fine. Steve just admit you messed up, quit your crying fix the f-ing problem and move on. Knock it off mudslingers at phone arena.
5. JeffdaBeat (unregistered)
So let me get this straight. It's okay for PhoneArena to post videos and blogs about the iPhone dropping service, but as soon as they post a video showing an Android phone doing it, all of a sudden PhoneArena is mudslinging? Are you team Jacob or team Edward? Seriously, it's no big deal. It's just a smartphone...
9. stilt (Posts: 63; Member since: 13 Jul 2008)
and yet you are still not doing anything productive today JEFDABEAT. this is more trivial stuff here, you must dont have anything else to do today do you?
24. JeffdaBeat (unregistered)
It was 9 am on a Saturday...it'd be different it if it were Saturday night and I was here... As I said before, I don't think intelligent discussion of technology is trivial at all. But I haven't seen that around here much with comments I've seen. You can get your point across without saying Fuck Steve Jobs or Fuck Apple.
52. Cali_E (Posts: 196; Member since: 24 Sep 2008)
dude i'm pretty sure the reason are commenting negativly on this is because weeks later, steve jobs is being sleezy and is STILL trying to cover up this issue and instead of taking responsibility, he's just pointing the finger at everyone else. his behavior is childish, and as long as he keeps making these stupid videos and cover-ups, he"s gunna get ridaculed
58. jherz6 (Posts: 216; Member since: 23 May 2008)
One big difference, 1st Apple denied the problem said it was a software issue, anyone with half a brain would know that a reconfig wouldnt solve the problem. 2nd Motorola didnt deny the problem the fixed it. Steve crying look, look the droid has a similar problem. Steve fix your own bed before you worry about someone elses.
59. jherz6 (Posts: 216; Member since: 23 May 2008)
Thats true but, the isheep and other people have been saying the same about verizon for years. So if you cant take it dont dish it out.
4. testman22 (Posts: 338; Member since: 03 Nov 2009)
This reminds me of the OJ simspon trial when the leather glove "didnt fit". OJ stretched out his hands and fingers while trying to put it on so it looked too small. In all these videos, they have to squeeze nice and tight and put their fingers in places you would never put during a normal call. whereas with the iphone you are inhibited in a place where you would normally place your hand for a call
7. stilt (Posts: 63; Member since: 13 Jul 2008)
the iphone 3GS that i have is only for store music and connecting to the dock in my car, I only have it because a friend of mine that left at&t and went to verizon gave it to me. Guess what he got in replace of the Iphone? and by the way how long did it takes apple to be able to send video mms? or have a flash on the camera? why cant i just purchase a replacement battery if i so happen to need one? and itunes why cant i just drag and drop albums to iphone like i do my blackberry bold and my droid x? why do i have to make a playlist then move the play list? why cant i just buy an extra memory card and pop it into my iphone and expand my memory? Iphone you seem behind to me, i really dont see the hype, mediocre devices have been able to do all of these things way before the iphone has so why is the iphone so special??? please tell me somebody

53. Cali_E (Posts: 196; Member since: 24 Sep 2008)
its so popular because all the people that have never had a smartphone can use one without any real learning curve. its a smartphone for dummies. you don't need any real skill or knowledge to use it. so in a nutshell, you can be a dumbass, and still have something that "looks" cool. (thats if you like the design of a phone)
10. cc16177 (Posts: 312; Member since: 09 May 2010)
Apple, shut up already.
12. vzw fanman (Posts: 1976; Member since: 11 Dec 2008)
that is a terrible test. 1) He didn't start out with 4 bars, which already makes throws the test out the window. 2) Why was there no 3G or 1X symbol next to the bars? How about they use an actual person's phone. 3) With my phones i can make a call with zero bars. as long as it doesn't say searching for service, calls and text messages will go through. 4)I haven't seen/heard any complaints about this besides this test.
65. gambino37 (Posts: 146; Member since: 16 Oct 2009)
Right on the money! I guarantee its a fake.
82. IHatePhones (Posts: 99; Member since: 12 Aug 2009)
You sir pointed out exactly what I was thinking with the no 3G/1XEV sign next to the bars. And if there was no signal, the phone would have gone into roam mode as well (unless it was turned off that is). Fishy fishy.
13. Phonatic (Posts: 27; Member since: 16 Jul 2010)
If they had put this kind of effort into making a half decent phone, they wouldn't need to spend all this time and energy making death grip videos of their competitors products. Can we kindly put this well beaten horse in the ground, Apple? Every video they post just makes them look more juvenile. Oh, and can someone top off Steve's sippy cup?
14. zerovampire311 (Posts: 42; Member since: 22 Jun 2009)
I have 2 bars of reception in my store, it's made of brick, and has a fair bit of interference from fixtures, etc. I held my Droid X exactly as shown and.... my phone went UP TO FULL BARS! Fail. I'm sure there was some other interference being used for the video... Apple just needs to give up on this issue and take personal responsibility.

I have a droidx and i love it. But i just tried holding the phone the exact same way as the dude on the video did. And my phone went from 3 bars to no service. But it's only when you hold it so tight. I still love this phone though and ill never hold it tha t tight ever again
48. alansim2010 (Posts: 2; Member since: 24 Jul 2010)
Why would someone give this comment a negative rating? I don't understand. Do you want me to post a video of my droid x loosing its reception when I hold it? wtf? lol.
20. greathero1 (Posts: 565; Member since: 13 Jun 2008)
These videos are hilarious and goes to show you that all phones when gripped around the antenna lose signal strength. What I did see was that the bars on the Apple and Blackberry dropped much faster than the others. Either way, Apple has given bumpers to help alleviate the issue and Android fanboys need to relax and spend more time talking about Froyo than Apple. I swear from some of these comments that you would think that the Apple was their girlfriend and she slept with their little brother, older sister, and father.
22. jpropin (Posts: 152; Member since: 20 May 2010)
Yeah, but for most people, its not good enough to be happy and satisfied with their choices, whether its a phone, car etc.... Thats why many spend so much time attempting to validate their own choices by slamming others people choices and other products. Feeling superior is what its all about. Quite High Schoolish, but what can you say.
21. Tenxchi7 (Posts: 4; Member since: 20 Oct 2009)
Wow! Apple, you should be a shame of yourself. First of all you can clearly see that he is squeezing the heck out of the droid X phone and, not on the "Apple Iphone" when holding it. And the fact that apple has to bring down other phones to show that there's are not the only one suffering the antenna problem shows how lame apple is. Just come out and confess that you made a mistake in putting an antenna over the Iphone 4 that's all. All I have to say is "Verizon Rocks" and "Droid Does" too. :)
25. ggp (unregistered)
ok, so I tried to recreate this on my Moto Droid X, and when I held my hand exactly like in the video, my signal actually went up from 4 to 5 bars! I then used my hands to cover the entire sides of the phone, repeated covering top and bottom and front and back with absolutely no change in signal strength. Just for the record.
26. jpropin (Posts: 152; Member since: 20 May 2010)
Expecting a Corporation, any Corportation to come straight out of the blocks saying "We Blew it" without first trying to throw excuses and other reasons out in the hopes that something sticks, is akin to expecting a visit from the tooth fairy after you get your teeth knocked out in a bar fight. In other words........pretty damn slim
76. Sniggly (Posts: 7305; Member since: 05 Dec 2009)
Oh really? When some new droid x users got models with faulty screens, moto said very quickly that yes, there were defective models, the problem had been corrected, and they were replacing bad models.
27. Vegas89 (Posts: 51; Member since: 15 Mar 2010)
But the difference is that the droid x won't drop a call because of it. Apple = Fail

WEST PLAINS, Mo. – With the recent flooding across southern Missouri, many water access points across the southern portion of the state are damaged. The Missouri Department of Conservation (MDC) has temporarily closed Jerome Access due to extensive flooding damage.
"We are working to come up with a repair plan but because of the extent of the damage, final repairs may be weeks away," said Dave Mayers, MDC's Fisheries Supervisor for the Ozark Region.
Jerome Access is one-tenth of a mile off Route D in Jerome. For more information about Jerome Access or other conservation areas in Missouri, go online to mdc.mo.gov.

As you go, marvel at the amazing views down into the depths of the valley as well as the magnificent panorama of the peaks in the Jungfrau region. Besides the famous triple peaks of the Eiger, Mönch and Jungfrau, you will also see several notorious north faces. The cable car goes from Lauterbrunnen up to the starting point at Grütschalp. Rising slightly at first, the trail levels off and leads through silent winter forest and meadows covered by deep snow and past the delightfully sunny Winteregg. Now parallel to the railway line, it continues to the car-free mountain village of Mürren. If you have the time, do take a detour to the panoramic revolving restaurant on the Schilthorn. Return to Lauterbrunnen either by rail and cable railway via Grütschalp or by cable railway and post bus via Stechelberg.

MINERVA - Before the season started, Salem head coach Rich Hart knew that in a league as tough as the Northeastern Buckeye Conference, victories on the road would be difficult to come by.
Even with a roster as senior-laden and experienced as the Quakers, there are always lessons to be learned.
"Winning ugly is better than the alternative," Hart said after a 63-50 win over the Minerva Lions.
"We learned a valuable lesson, and we can't walk out the court and think we're good or else we're going to get ourselves in a dog fight. We had the opportunity to put it away in the first half, but we didn't. When you miss seven or eight lay-ups and 16 free throws, those combinations make for a tight game."
The first quarter lacked much of the style that Salem has grown accustomed to this year. Salem was whistled for six fouls to Minerva's one.
"They did a nice job with what they were doing, but we certainly didn't do what we were supposed to," Hart said.
Fact Box
SALEM SCORING: Ryan Bush 9-1-22, Zack Wukotich 0-2-2, Brendan Webb 1-3-6, Zach Economous 1-2-5, Max Wolfgang 2-7-11, Anthony Shivers 8-1-17.
MINERVA SCORING: Quade Zeedrich 1-0-2, Cody Parrish 3-0-6, Joey Gill 7-5-22, Nick Clapper 1-2-4, Evan Forest 2-0-4, Jake Stryffeler 5-2-12.
THREE POINTERS: Salem 5 (Bush 3, Webb, Economous) Minerva 3 (Gill 3).
Salem jumped out to an early lead despite the lack of rhythm. Ryan Bush connected from beyond the arc to give Salem an 8-0 lead and force Minerva head coach Pepper Locke to burn his first timeout.
Brendan Webb picked up two quick fouls and was sent to the bench with 5:20 to play in the first quarter. The Quakers remained without the services of their starting point guard until the second quarter began but benefitted from a deep bench.
Despite the foul trouble, Salem led 15-13 after one quarter.
With a basket by Cody Parrish to open the second stanza, Salem found itself in danger of trailing for the first time this year.
The Quakers answered buoyed by Max Wolfgang who led the offensive charge in the second quarter. Wolfgang netted seven of his 11 points in the frame. He also finished with nine rebounds and recorded four blocks.
Minerva got quick basket just before the half ended to cut the Quakers lead to four at 29-25.
Back-to-back 3-pointers by Zach Economous and Ryan Bush opened up the second half for the Quakers, giving them a 10-point lead.
Salem also emphasized it's defense in the third and it showed on the scoreboard. Minerva managed just six points in the frame and committed multiple turnovers.
The offense also came as a result of the defense, and the Quakers managed to push their lead to 16 points with a 3-pointer from Webb with less than a minute to play.
"We cleaned up some things that's for sure, but then we reverted back to what we were doing before once the fourth came around," Hart said.
Hart emphasized patience throughout the final quarter of the game, and declared that the first two minutes of the final quarter would determine who would come out on top.
"I should've said the first three minutes," Hart said with a laugh. "The first two minutes we were okay and then the third minute we went a little brain-dead and gave them some easy buckets."
The Lions chipped away their 16-point deficit to nine with 2:15 to play, but Salem's depth and experience proved to be too much.
"We just have to keep getting better," Hart said. "We're not good enough right now, and we have to get better for next week. If we play like this we have a chance to lose at home."
Bush led the Quakers with 22 points, including a trio of 3-pointers. Anthony Shivers joined Bush and Wolfgang in double figures with 17 points.
The Quakers finish up a tough opening stretch in their schedule and now look forward to six out of their next seven games at home.
"It's nice when it's over and you're 6-0," Hart said. "It also helps knowing that you have a lot of home games to finish up with."
The Quakers also won the jayvee game 52-38. Ryan Hoover led Salem with 21 points while D.J. Pullie added 13. Mike Popa and Jake Bezon each added five for the Quakers.
Salem (6-0, 3-0 NBC) will host also unbeaten Carrollton Friday at John A. Cabas Gymnasium.

Several people were injured over the weekend during a fight on Guernsey Street near Hertel Avenue.
Victims told police that a large group of people came with shovels, bricks and a hammer and attacked them about noon on Saturday.
One man told police he was assaulted with a hammer and had a cut to the head; he was taken to Erie County Medical Center for treatment. At least two other victims reported minor injuries, including a bloody nose and a fat lip, but denied treatment.

Someone who's love of sausages is so extreme it has completely altered the smell of their breath to what can only be decribed as entering a room that has been scented by sausage candles. You may think this sounds like a delightful smell....you would be very wrong

After an over-the-top proposal on her birthday Monday, the couple returned to Los Angeles and stepped out for a jam-packed date night Thursday that included an appearance at a gala and a trip to the movies. The couple started their evening by attending the Dream for Future Africa Foundation gala at Spago Beverly Hills.
The happy couple arrived hand in hand at 8 p.m. Kardashian, 33, proudly flashed her massive engagement ring and donned a curve-hugging white knit dress. West, 36, was dapper in dark pants and a black tux jacket with a tee underneath.
The smiling pair continued to hold hands as they worked the room and greeted friends. They later took their seats across from one another at a long table in the center of the room. Kardashian was seated next to Amber Valetta, while West was next to Vogue Italia editor-in-chief Franca Sozzani and Karolina Kurkova.
The inaugural gala dinner was hosted by Wolfgang and Gelila Puck, and Amber Valletta honored Sozzani. Babyface performed later in the evening.

Kardashian and West's date night didn't end there: After the gala, the two were spotted out at a Los Angeles movie theater, where they reportedly saw Captain Phillips.
The couple are gearing up for some time on the road during West's current Yeezus tour, which just kicked off. On Friday, they're set for Las Vegas, where West will perform and Kardashian will belatedly celebrate her 33rd birthday at Tao.
"Kim and North will be on the road with Kanye for about a month," says a source of the mom and her 4-month-old daughter. "Everyone is really excited for the experience."

Published August 21, 2014
Buffalo was once the mecca of helicopter design and manufacturing.
So it's fitting that the future of helicopters, an aircraft largely unchanged in the last 40 years, was a central topic at The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) annual conference on advanced manufacturing and design at the Buffalo Niagara Convention Center.
Hosted by UB, and co-organized by Venkat Krovi, UB associate professor of mechanical and aerospace engineering, the four-day event began Sunday and concluded on Wednesday. It featured up to 2,000 engineers, ranging from Fortune 500 company executives and world-class scholars, to successful entrepreneurs and aspiring students.
Dan Bailey, who leads the Pentagon's estimated $100 billion effort to build the next generation of helicopters, spoke about the need to modernize the aircraft to fit today's military needs. The effort, known as the "future vertical lift" program, could radically redesign an aircraft that remains similar to the helicopters developed in Western New York by Bell Aircraft in the aftermath of World War II.
"There's a bit of innovation that's going to be required," said Bailey, who spoke during a panel with Robert Brady, retired executive chairman of Moog Inc., and Russ Agrusa, founder, president and CEO of ICONICS, a software development company with headquarters in Massachusetts.
UB Provost Charles Zukoski, who spoke before the panel, said that UB is uniquely positioned to help companies achieve their manufacturing goals, as well as train tomorrow's scientists and engineers.
For example, he spotlighted UB's commitment to life sciences, particularly the move of UB's medical school to the Buffalo Niagara Medical Campus, and other partnerships such as the university's involvement with New York Genome Center, which aims to transform biomedical research and clinical care.
"At UB, we're dedicated to addressing major global problems with our research and the education we provide," Zukoski said.
Agrusa, who graduated from UB in 1976 with a bachelor's degree in electrical engineering, spoke about society's thirst for data and how ICONICS is working with business that include everything from wind power companies to automobile parts manufacturers.
Brady described how East Aurora-based Moog transformed from a defense company with $25 million in sales in 1965 to a multibillion dollar global corporation that works with NASA, Formula One racing, Airbus and numerous other clients.
The three speakers, and dozens more throughout the conference, offered their own perspective on their work and the future of advanced manufacturing and design. But it was J. Robert "Bob" Sims, ASME president, who perhaps summed up the conference's underlying theme.
"The public demands safe, reliable solutions and engineers are uniquely positioned to provide those solutions," he said.

An elderly California man who just 12 hours earlier had been warned not to drive, was involved in an accident on Tuesday that injured both he and his wife.
Dean Waln, 78, of Turlock, was injured when the 2008 Chevrolet HHR he was driving north left Highway 395 near Topaz Lane just south of Topaz Lake.
The vehicle continued east until it overturned and collided with a barbed wire fence at about 5:48 p.m., according to the California Highway Patrol.
Highway 395 was closed for less than 15 minutes while a tow truck pulled the vehicle back onto the roadway.
Waln received a cut to his forehead and a spinal fracture. He was helicoptered to Renown Regional Medical Center in Reno. His wife, Wanda, 68, complained of injury to her arm and leg. She was taken to Carson Valley Medical Center for treatment.
The accident wasn't Waln's first contact with the California Highway Patrol along Highway 395 on Tuesday, according to spokeswoman Anne Morin. At 5:45 a.m., his vehicle was found blocking a lane of the highway near the Bodie Road south of Bridgeport. The CHP officer found him in shorts and a T-shirt standing by his car in 36-degree weather.
After getting the HHR safely off the road and Waln into the patrol car, the officer found that he didn't have a valid driver's license and wasn't able to answer questions or care for himself.
He was ordered not to drive again. He was reunited with his wife in Mammoth Lakes that morning.

Copycat Wendy's Chocolate Frosty
45 comments :
LOL, funny girl! I'm so excited to try these frosty treats.ReplyDelete
Could you make me a vanilla one? I love that burger/milkshake combo!ReplyDelete
Patti, you could make this vanilla if you wanted. You can purchase vanilla flavored milk or you can just use a quart of white milk and add vanilla extract to it. Maybe about 1/2 tbsp. (or more depending on your taste) :)ReplyDelete
Brilliant! Who knew you could make a show stopping Wendy's frosty at home? And with only two ingredients! Buzzed and stumbled :)ReplyDelete
Hehe you had me with FROSTY!! I absolutely love them and this looks amazing, love it!! :)ReplyDelete
Time to make a batch of french fries to go with the Frosty. I still dip my fries into my Frosty at Wendys. Itty Bitty will be singing your praises for this recipe.ReplyDelete
Not only is there NOT a Sonic anywhere near me, there is NOT a Wendy's either. Once again, you are my hero. awesome.ReplyDelete
I have the exact same ice cream maker here, so I can definitely use the amounts you recommended. I'm pretty sure I have a stray can of condensed milk here somewhere -- from a key lime pie that never happened, most likely, so I can pick up some chocolate milk and make this happen!ReplyDelete
hehe I always dip fries in my frostys haha. It is like something that I just cannot resist doing. Your chilled beverage looks amazingReplyDelete
Love a Wendy's Frosty!! This recipe is amazing, so easy. Thanks for sharing :)ReplyDelete
Look amazing I love Ice creams! gloriaReplyDelete
I love a good Frosty, especially when I can dip my fries into it. ;)ReplyDelete
Time to invest in an ice cream maker.... ugh I cant stop drooling!!ReplyDelete
Sounds great! A Must try!ReplyDelete
You are too funny...tap, tap...LOL. And now on to your Frosty! Amazing! Thanks for finding the secret, Brandie!! Will try this soon~ReplyDelete
:)) Sounds incredible and very tasty..and yesReplyDelete
i have to agree with Lizzy, you are so funny!:)
I really really need to get an ice cream maker... lol! I haven't even had a frosty is almost 4 years!!! Yikes! Now I'm craving it something bad, because this looks so freaking awesome!ReplyDelete
My husband is not a fan of chocolate, but for some reason he loves a frosty from Wendy's. I will have to make this for him!ReplyDelete
I soooo need an ice cream maker!!!ReplyDelete
Oh yum. I am putting an ice cream maker on my wish list just so I can make this.ReplyDelete
Looks wonderful! Would love to have a frosty now. :-)ReplyDelete
Absolutely can't wait to try these. Put my ice cream bowl in the freezer already (i have the same one as yours too). I had another recipe for wendy's frosty but much more difficult than this so I never bothered to try it.ReplyDelete
Mmmmm I love Frostys. It's like the best malt! I wanted to thank you again for letting me guest blog and let you know I've given you a little award. You can see it here:ReplyDelete
I have such great memories of when I was little and broke my arm they would always give me coupons for free frosties. Somehow at age 4 that made breaking my arm well worth it. I will definitely be trying this recipe, I am pinning it now! Thanks so much for sharing and rekindling some childhood memories for me!ReplyDelete
Who knew that my favorite frosty could be so simple! I love that it's only 2 ingredients! Perfect! Thanks for sharing your recipe! : )ReplyDelete
Cool. what a great way to use my ice cream machine. I have one just like yours. Maybe I will make a strawberry frosty.ReplyDelete
The chocolate frosty is my favorite..my husband tends to lead to the vanilla. I love how easy this recipe is, I will have to make some.ReplyDelete
You had me at FROSTY! I love those - everyone in my famiy does and my kids would love it if I made these. I may have to try!ReplyDelete
Love frostys and I love to make ice cream so this one is a no-brainer for me! Thanks for the recipe!ReplyDelete
Frostys are the best! And this is so incredibly simple! Now I don't have to wait until I go to Wendy's to get a Frosty :) yay!ReplyDelete
I would so love a frosty right about now. I'll have to try this. Thanks for the recipe.ReplyDelete
How yummy! I love frostys! I really need to get an ice cream maker so I can try this. Thanks for linking up with me. I just pinned this!ReplyDelete
I bet it's better for you than a real Frosty, too! (And we have the same ice cream maker! This week I posted a piña colada limonada sherbet. YUM. I love having an ice cream maker!)ReplyDelete
It looks so yummy! Thanks for sharing this lovely recipe. Hope to see you on my blog:)ReplyDelete
Super simple! How would this work with low-fat chocolate milk and fat-free condensed milk?ReplyDelete
Hi Brandie,ReplyDelete
I love the opportunity to make homemade frosties for my family, but most of my family members are lactose intolerant, so is there a way to make this lactose free? I was thinking of using Chocolate Silk Soymilk, but what can be used other than the sweetened condensed milk? Having to take a Lactaid pill with the first bite of anything with dairy takes the excitement out of any delicious food.
Hi Genevieve! I'm so happy you found your way here from that article!! You could definitely use a soy milk for this. Just make sure you go with a brand that has a deep chocolate flavor. Now, as for the sweetened condensed milk, I've been racking my brain on that one. I don't have any lactose intolerant folks in my family so I'm not real familiar with many of the lactose-free products. You could make your own version at home. Just not sure how much work you want to put into making this. Condensed milk is just milk & sugar that has been reduced to give you that thick & rich consistency. Now, keep in mind, I'm not sure how any of this will affect the taste of the final product. But it might be worth a try to give your lactose-intolerant family members a try of a special treat they can't normally eat. :)ReplyDelete
3 cups Milk
1/2 cup White Sugar
Vanilla Extract
Directions: Add the soy milk and the sugar to a saucepan. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until volume is reduced to 1 cup. Add a few drops of vanilla to taste, and a pinch of salt. Cool before using. May be stored in the refrigerator.
As I said, I've never tried this but if you give it a shot, I'd love to know your results. :)
Tried this last night after seeing the Yahoo article and then finding your blog - I can't wait to make some of your other recipes! I used FF sweetened condensed milk because that is what I had. I did just use store brand chocolate milk. After half hour, it looked thick enough, but was not quite as thick upon removal(probably due to FF condenses milk) but really TASTY! No complaints from the family. Put the leftovers in the freezer and looking forward to eating tonight!ReplyDelete
Barb - so glad to have you here! And I'm happy you've had a chance to try out the recipe too! I appreciate you taking the time to let me know the results & that you enjoyed it! Hope you find lots more recipes on here that you love!ReplyDelete
Very nice I didn't know you could make your own frosty at home lol.ReplyDelete
Well if that doesn't beat all???? Leave it to you to come up with this amazing recipe. Pinning!ReplyDelete
- AnonymousJuly 30, 2013 at 3:02 AM
I have that exact ice cream maker and use it very often, so I just store my bucket in the freezer. I have wanted to duplicate a frosty forever now but couldn't come up with something that worked. I never would have thought of putting sweetened condensed milk in it! You are a genius. Thank you so much for your help and the next time I need a recipe www.thecountrycook.net will be the first place I look.(And from me, coming before google is a real honor.) Thanks Again!ReplyDelete
- AnonymousJuly 30, 2013 at 3:12 AM
Sorry.. I just commenred and forgot to say my name is Anna but Thanks for the third time!ReplyDelete
I made this yesterday for my kids after realizing our carton of chocolate milk was really close to its sell by date. It was FANTASTIC! I'm not a huge chocolate fan, but this was really good and the texture was awesome. Thanks for sharing! I love reading your blog!! :-)ReplyDelete
I love, love, love Frostys and excited to try your recipe. One question. Can I use those plastic bags that they put your groceries in at the store? Have LOTS of those.ReplyDelete

have been set in motion to get the nation's next space exploration
vehicle prepared for flight. Lockheed Martin announced this
week that they have a crew on-site at NASA's Kennedy Space Center to
began lean assembly path-finding operations for the
Orion spacecraft. A full-scale Orion mock-up
is being used to conduct simulated manufacturing and assembly
operations to verify the tools, processes and spacecraft integration
procedures. The finished product is expected to be
fully assembled by Lockheed Martin on the grounds of the Kennedy
Space Center according to a press
release from the company."The unique benefit of
this complete on-site operation is that we will build the spacecraft
and then move it directly onto the launch vehicle at KSC, which saves
the government transportation costs associated with tests and
checkout prior to launch," said Lockheed Martin Orion Deputy
Program Manager for production operations Richard Harris. "This
capability also facilitates the KSC workforce transition efforts by
providing new job opportunities for those employees completing their
shuttle program assignments."To help support NASA's
next generation spacecraft fleet, Lockheed Martin and NASA worked
together in a two-year effort on renovations for the Operations &
Checkout Facility at the Kennedy Space Center. The
collaboration produced a new and improved "O&C".
Paperless workstations, a portable clean room system, portable
tooling stations, and air-bearing floor space were some of the
upgrades that resulted in the state-of-the-art complex being dubbed
the "the spacecraft factory of the future". Lockheed
Martin is currently the prime contractor to NASA for the
Orion Project.
quote: But I think your wrong about how this reflects on the current administration. I think the current president is very interested in the development of technology that will allow us to get off our little rock. The problem is that we spend a lot of money to do it right now, and right now money is tight. The vision for the future space program is to be driven by the private sector which is arguably the best way to drive down costs and make space travel a more regular thing for the private sector.

What do you do when you find yourself afflicted by a insidious, incurable disease like HIV/AIDS? According to Penny DeNoble, an HIV/AIDS activist and former schoolteacher from Denver, Col., you fight back. You fight back with every tooth and nail, because it�s the only way to survive. �Throughout my journey, I�ve learned that the more I tell my story, the more healed I become and the more I fall in love with myself all over again. The more I feel equipped to fight. To fight another day,� Penny says. It�s been more than 15 years, but Penny can still vividly recall the moment she was diagnosed with HIV/AIDS in 1986. In the mid-1980s�an era when little was understood about the inscrutable disease, and even fewer treatment options existed�a diagnosis of HIV was a de facto death sentence. �I was paralyzed. I was shocked,� Penny remembers. At the time of her diagnosis, Penny�s husband, Billy DeNoble, was dying of AIDS. A former illicit drug user, Billy acquired HIV via the sharing of contaminated needles and lived with the virus for many years without knowing he was infected. By the time he began to experience symptoms in 1985, the virus had progressed to AIDS and was ravishing his body. �[My husband] infected me, unwillingly,� says Penny, who hadn�t known about her husband's previous drug abuse. In spite of that, Penny didn�t harbor any resentment towards her husband. When Penny called Billy and told him that she had tested HIV-positive, �It was the hardest phone call I ever had to make in my life,� she says. �I felt fear and sorrow, at having to share [that news] with him,� Penny reembers. �He wept and apologized profusely, knowing he had passed the virus on to me. But I reassured him that it was okay, that I forgave him.� Billy DeNoble died of AIDS just three days after his 36th birthday, on July 14, 1986. After grappling with the one-two punch of the shock of her diagnosis and then the subsequent death of her husband, Penny found herself shrouded in stigma, shame and despair. In the 1980s, many misconceptions about HIV/AIDS existed�chief among them that AIDS was primarily a gay man�s disease�and Penny faced profound discrimination from her community, her friends and even her own family. �Once my social community learned of my diagnosis, they disowned me. When I would go out socially, they would whisper and point fingers at me. No one would come up to me and ask me how I was doing, what I was feeling,� Penny says. �It was hurtful to the core.� [caption id="attachment_117808" align="alignnone" width="493"] This article originally appeared as on Spry Living

She does have strong features (square jaw) but I think she's beautiful. Her hair is slicked back in the picture so it excentuates the jaggedness of the jaw - if the hair were softer I bet her face would appear softer/more feminine too.
Draper's kids are TOO cute. I remember seeing them in some interview a year or so ago, it was showing him at home with them and he was talking about managing travel and a family.

Surgical removal of a toe, foot, or part of a foot
Amputation is most often done to:
Complications are rare, but no procedure is completely free of risk. If you are planning to have an amputation, your doctor will review a list of possible complications, which may include:
Before your procedure, talk to your doctor about ways to manage factors that may increase your risk of complications such as:
Before the surgery, your doctor may do some of the following:

In the days leading up to your surgery:
Based on your surgery and general health, you may have:
You will be given IV fluids and antibiotics. Your foot will be washed with an antibacterial solution. The surgeon will make an incision into the skin around the area. The blood vessels will be tied off or sealed with an electrical current. This will prevent bleeding. The involved bones will be removed.
The ends of the remaining bone(s) will be smoothed. The remaining skin and muscle will be pulled over the open area. It will be closed with stitches. A sterile dressing will then be placed over the incision.
If there is an active infection, tubes may be left in place to allow fluids to drain. In some cases, the skin will not be closed but will instead be packed with a moist dressing.
You will be taken to a recovery room. There, you will be monitored for any negative effects from the surgery or anesthesia.
You will be given pain medicine. You may also receive more antibiotic medicines.
20-60 minutes
Anesthesia prevents pain during surgery. The area will be painful after the surgery. You will be given medication to help control the pain.

The 2011 NBA Draft is now only days away.
I've been going back and forth, analyzing prospects, trying to gauge who each player in this draft reminds me of in the current NBA. I will be the first one to say, that this draft is by no means at the high level of say 2003, but yet to treat it as if there is no one of real value in it is a vast understatement.
There are some very quality picks that will be made Thursday night. Teams will get better with some of these players.
What makes this year's draft unique is the possibility for steals and sleeper picks. The difference between Jimmer Fredette, Klay Thompson and Marshon Brooks is relatively unknown and your guest is as good as mine which one will capitalize on their potential and become the best pro. This will make for entertaining television as one of these three could slide out of the lottery, but yet end up having the biggest impact.
Over the next few hours I will be posting a complete two round mock draft based on who I think will be the best fit for each team. I am not analyzing this by current skill set alone, nor am I going to be lost in the shaky analysis of evaluating players on potential alone.
What I hope to provide you all with is a complete, comprehensive and hopefully accurate prediction of what will happen Thursday night. I know there are plenty of trade conversations out there, but since none of use are behind closed doors hearing the actual phone calls, I will not waste your time with mere speculation.
So without further ado, here's a look at my two round 2011 NBA Mock Draft.

AICPA News Update
A Weekly Email Newsletter on Issues & Events Surrounding the CPA Profession
November 04, 2011 - Volume 14 No. 47
The Internal Revenue Service was making available, under Freedom of Information Act requirements, information about tax return preparers who hold a personal tax identification number, including name, address, e-mail address and phone number. However, the IRS has indicated to the AICPA that it has temporarily suspended this practice. The AICPA is discussing with the IRS the appropriateness of the release of this information and has strongly suggested that PTIN holders be given an opportunity to opt out of the release of their information. For more information, visit AICPA.org.
The AICPA's Financial Reporting Executive Committee (FinREC) has issued a working draft of the AICPA Accounting and Valuation Guide, Testing Goodwill for Impairment. The guide provides nonauthoritative guidance and illustrations for valuation specialists, preparers of financial statements, and independent auditors regarding goodwill impairment testing. Informal feedback on the guide as well as input regarding the need for additional implementation guidance on FASB ASU 2011-08 is welcome. The deadline for submitting comments is March 15, 2012. Download the working draft for more information.
As a result of the Small Business Lending Fund enacted into law as part of the Small Business Jobs Act of 2010, the Audit and Attest Standards staff has issued Technical Practice Aid (TPA) 9110.18, "Small Business Lending Fund Auditor Certification Guidance." The TPA provides guidance on how the independent auditor may certify that the processes and controls used to generate the supplemental reports that contain the amount of a community bank's qualified small business lending are satisfactory. It also provides an illustration of a report an auditor may use when, as a result of the auditor's audit procedures, nothing has come to the auditor's attention to indicate that the bank failed to comply with the terms of the small business lending fund.
The AICPA and the National Association of State Boards of Accountancy have released a video encouraging CPAs to use CPAMobility.org. A joint project, CPAMobility.org provides helpful information, updated regularly, on state practice privilege requirements for CPAs, commonly referred to as "mobility" laws, for all 50 states and 5 U.S jurisdictions. The video demonstrates that in four simple clicks online, CPAs can learn whether their existing home state registration is mobile and allows them to work in other jurisdictions without additional notice, or whether further registration is required. Watch the video for more information or visit CPAMobility.org.
Discover how to differentiate yourself so your clients will remain clients for life, increase your revenues from your existing client base, and attract new clients to your practice through the referrals from your satisfied clients. All attendees will receive a script on how to generate client interest in discussing the possibility of providing additional types of advice to them outside of tax season. Choose to attend on November 8 or 9 from 12:30 to 1 p.m. Eastern. Attendance is free; CPE is not offered. Register today.
Discover the new posts on the AICPA's official blog, AICPA Insights, including the first Chair's Letter from new AICPA Chairman of the Board of Directors Greg Anton, CPA.

Plain English campaign news articles
Plain English, for a clearer view of your world
- Details
- Created on Wednesday, 04 August 2010 14:34
Congratulations are due for the launch of the first plain-English guide to eye prescriptions from the UK's largest supplier of glasses, Glasses Direct.
Glasses Direct proudly display the world-renowned Crystal Mark, Plain English Campaign's symbol of clarity, on both the online and hard-copy versions of the full guide and quick information leaflet. The versions were produced as a joint project with the team at Glasses Direct, their marketing agency Incredibull, and the editors at Plain English Campaign. This effort aims to give the public a better understanding of the details contained in their eye prescription so they can then use that information responsibly.
Chrissie's honorary fellowship acceptance speech

Well, Sex in the City I am not!
Nor am I the greatest scriptwriter, namely Phil, my hero.
But I am a scouser, and proud of it.
I love Liverpool and its people, and to be honoured by Liverpool's greatest university is beyond my wildest dreams.
I just wanted to be a beacon, a light of hope to those who, like me grew up believing they had nothing to give.
Have you any idea how exciting it is for someone, like me, with so little education to be standing here?
I had no early education and only learnt to read and write when I was 14.
My family lived in a slum and there was no welfare state then for a mother with six kids.
But, with God's help and a scouser's determination, I came to meet Harry Deveril, a Liverpudlian with a big heart who paid for me to go to night school.
Later, the guiding hands of the John Moores Foundation provided the expertise, advice, practical help, and unending encouragement that led me to found Plain English Campaign over 30 years ago. Plain English Campaign has become a respected, worldwide beacon for people struggling with the gobbledygook in public information that affects their daily lives.
Together with supporters of Plain English Campaign, we have built a global industry that started right here, like so many other great things, in Liverpool.
And, this awareness continues into the future with the recent plain English constitution produced by your university student's union.
So it's with pride and gratitude that I accept this honorary fellowship - a symbol of true friendship from this University.
I hope I can make you proud.
I survived poverty to make something out of nowt.
Imagine what dreams you can build with a degree.
Everyday I live my dream, and laugh as much as I can.
The world is yours - go get it - let your light shine bright.

It wasn't the first honour to be placed on Chrissie's shoulders in recognition of her lifelong fight for clearer public communications, but the Honorary Fellowship from Liverpool John Moores University (LJMU) held the most poignant memories for this grandmother in her seventies.
With an illiterate childhood in an inner-city slum of post-war Liverpool, education itself was a distant dream for Chrissie. To find herself standing beneath the great naves of Liverpool's Anglican Cathedral, with thousands of LJMU graduates also receiving acknowledgement for their years of hard work, was beyond Chrissie's wildest dreams.
Whitewashing the real dirt with the same old smut
- Details
- Created on Tuesday, 20 July 2010 10:18
A current campaign from Keep Britain Tidy (KBT), called "Get behind keep Britain tidy" follows similar lines to a previous campaign from some years ago. The current campaign uses "saucy seaside postcard humour" to highlight the increasing costs of cleaning up litter.
During that campaign we received some complaints from the public about the messages being inappropriate, particularly for an audience of young people. A number of young people we interviewed thought the campaign was close to the bone and unnecessary but agreed it would raise a few laughs. However, they doubted that the campaign would stop people littering as it just belittled the problem rather than highlighted the serious issues of hygiene and health.

A plainly confusing life of letters and numbers
- Details
- Created on Friday, 16 April 2010 09:46
Algebraic calculations with their mysterious mixture of letters and numbers have been named as number one in the Top 10 of the most confusing things we might come across in our lives. Surprisingly, handling and changing foreign money made the top four, coming in behind 'understanding the theory of relativity', and just beating 'the opposite sex'.
This survey of 3000 holidaymakers by onepoll.com has resulted in the leading foreign exchange specialist Travelex, creating a 'Plain English guide to exchanging currency'. It is the first guide of this kind to receive accreditation from Plain English Campaign for the clarity of its wording, and its explanations of foreign-exchange jargon.

Sophomore Cherisse Burris scored a career-high 18 points on 9-of-12 shooting as the Stetson women's basketball team defeated UNC Asheville 74-47 Wednesday afternoon at the Hatter Classic.
The Hatters (7-4) completed a two-game sweep in the tournament and extended their home win streak to 10.
Victoria McGowan earned Hatter Classic Most Valuable Player honors after scoring 32 points over the two games. She scored 17 points and added six assists and five rebounds on Wednesday. Burris was also named to the all-tournament team for the Hatters.
Shanasa Sanders contributed to the winning effort with 10 points and eight rebounds. Sasha Sims added nine points, four assists, and a season-high four blocks.
Stetson got off to a hot start from behind the arc, connecting on five three-pointers in the first eight minutes to take a 25-10 lead. McGowan and Sanders each connected on two trifectas during that stretch.
UNC Asheville (2-10) was able to close the gap to 10 at the 10-minute mark, but the Hatters finished the period strong and enjoyed a 44-23 halftime lead.
Stetson continued to extend its advantage in the second half, grabbing its largest lead at 31 when freshman Sydni Payne knocked down her first career basket with 1:12 left in the game. The Bulldogs scored the final four points of the contest denying the Hatters their second straight 30-point win.
"I thought defensively in the first half we were pretty good, but in the second half I don't think our effort was very good as far as rebounding the basketball," Stetson head coach Lynn Bria said. "I just felt like we lost some intensity in the second half."
The Hatters held a 23-14 edge in rebounding in halftime, but the Bulldogs erased that deficit in the second half and the teams finished tied with 35 rebounds apiece.
"Rebounding has been a big key for us," Bria said. "We've worked on it and worked on it so we can continue to try and get better. But today I thought we gave them entirely too many offensive boards."
The game was Stetson's last contest before the start of Atlantic Sun Conference play on Dec. 31 at Mercer. The Hatters have won six of their last seven games and are undefeated at home on the season (6-0).
"My concerns are where we are defensively," Bria said about the non-conference season. "We've made progress, but we've got to get better. Overall we just have to do a better job of shutting people down and giving them one shot, and we are just not there yet. We are better, and I am encouraged by that, but it's still not where I want us to be."
In the second game of the day, Bethune-Cookman defeated Georgia Southern 59-48 to equal Stetson's 2-0 classic record and share team champion honors.
Notes: Stetson has swept the last three Hatter Classics and has been champion or co-champion seven times ... Spanning the last 10:41 of the Georgia Southern game and the first 2:23 of the UNC Asheville game, Stetson's defense went 13:04 without allowing a field goal (and just one point) … In six home games this year totaling 240 minutes of playing time, Stetson has trailed for just 4:17 … The Hatters shot over 50 percent for the second straight game … Victoria McGowan had 12 assists in the two tournament games and only one turnover ... Stetson won its 50th game in its last three seasons (50-28).
All-Tournament Team: Victoria McGowan-MVP (Stetson), Cherisse Burris (Stetson), Shonese Jones (UNCA), MiMi DuBose (GSU), Terrenisha Hollis (B-CU).

Bono Mack's U.S. Safe Web Act reauthorized
Outgoing Republican Congresswoman says bipartisan effort provides important consumer protections
WASHINGTON, D.C. - Rep. Mary Bono Mack says consumers will have more protections from fraud when using their computers, thanks to the law she authored capping off her Congressional career.
The Republican Chairman of the House Subcommittee on Commerce, Manufacturing and Trade, said the reauthorization of the U.S. Safe Web Act was a major victory.
The law allows the Federal Trade Commission to combat cross-border fraud, spam and spyware.
Bono Mack's legislation extends the FTC's authority to enforce the law until 2020. Bono Mack said, "Even though the Internet serves billions of users worldwide - with e-commerce in the United States topping $200 billion last year for the first time and up nearly 20 percent so far this year - it still remains a work in progress."
Bono Mack said, "In just over 25 years, the Internet has not only changed our lives, it has become 'part' of our lives."
First approved by Congress in 2006, the U.S. SAFE WEB Act authorizes the FTC to:
· Share information involving cross border fraud with foreign consumer protection agencies;
· Secure and protect confidential information from foreign consumer protection agencies from public disclosure that otherwise would not be shared by many foreign law enforcement agencies;
· Pursue fraud-based legal action by amending the "unfair or deceptive acts or practices" to include acts involving foreign commerce or material misconduct within the United States;
· Seek redress on behalf of foreign consumers victimized by U.S.-based wrong-doers; and finally
· Make criminal referrals for cross-border criminal activity when violations of FTC law also violate U.S. criminal law.
Bono Mack leaves Congress this month after losing a reelection contest against Democrat Raul Ruiz.
She said, "As I prepare to leave Congress after more than 14 terrific years, I remain very optimistic about the future of America". Admittedly, we face some daunting challenges as a nation in the months and years ahead. But the true greatness of America is measured by the things that unite us, not divide us. We are a people bound by enduring ideals and principles, which are embedded in an unshakable belief in truth, justice, opportunity and freedom for all."
"Despite the many challenges we are facing today, I continue to believe that our best years are ahead of us, because ours is a nation which values courage, compassion and character and stands united - and undeterred - as freedom's greatest ally around the world," said Bono Mack.
"It has been my extraordinary honor and great privilege to serve in the United States House of Representatives since 1998, and I am extremely proud of what we have accomplished. So today, looking back on my eight terms in Congress, I'm reminded of one of my favorite quotes: 'Don't be sad that it's over. Be happy that it happened.' As we approach this joyous holiday season, I have much to be thankful for and happy about. This truly has been an experience of a lifetime."
