Does anyone know a brand of primal chorizo that doesn't contain soy flour? I am hoping to find one that is cheap and preferably not just muscle meat.
My favorite brand is made of pork salivary and lymph glands but it contains soy flour and I am concerned with how that may affect me.
I saw several brands in stores in UT that had all the goop but no soy flour. I haven't looked now that I'm back home.

Rhythos – Open Source RPG Builder Inspired by RPGMaker
David Maletz's attempt to Kickstart Rhythos–an open source RPGMaker-like tool–failed, but apparently Maletz is not letting that stop him, telling IndieRPGs.com,
Right now, my plan is to continue expanding the community and keeping the current backers interested, and continue working on Rhythos on the side until I have a runnable demo people can try (hopefully by early next year). Then, my plan is to start another campaign next year, and hope with the expanded community, the demo, and more interesting backer rewards, it'll have a higher chance of success.
I hope he succeeds–the more tools like this that allow people to make their own games, the better.
Here's the video that Maletz put together for his Kickstarter.
In Profundis – Cellular Automata-Driven Cave Exploration Game
In Profundis is a Kickstarter-funded game that has the player exploring a giant cave on an alien world.
The game uses cellular automation to simulate its world. Liquids flow, gases spread, boulders roll, fires spread, plants grow and walls crack and crumble. Other games, notably three that involve exploring underground caverns, use CA techniques: the classic Atari 800 puzzle game Boulder Dash (which directly inspired the behavior of the boulders here), and the recent indie hits Dwarf Fortress and Minecraft. Another game that bears some similarity, at least in the operation of its engine, is the "Falling Sand" Java game. However, In Profundis' CA system will be rather more complex than most of these (except maybe for Dwarf Fortress — Tarn Adams is a genius). The fact that it's 2D helps in this regard; it greatly decreases the amount of calculation needed for each frame.
The developer posted a YouTube video demonstrating his vision for the game:

Call for Papers – International Studies Association 2012, April 1-4. San Diego, CA
(Tentative) Session/Panel Title:
Contentious Politics and Diverging Interests of American-Turkish Relations
Organizers: Joshua Hendrick (Loyola University of Maryland) Tugrul Keskin (Portland State University)
Dear all,
We are in the process of organizing a panel for the 2012 International Studies Association annual meetings in San Diego, CA, April 1-4. The tentative title is Contentious Politics and Diverging Interests of American-Turkish Relations. We hope to organize a panel that addresses the rather simplistic but common assertion (in both Turkey and the US) that American-Turkish relations are suffering from a slow increase in tension and mutual mistrust based on their currently diverging interests. Notwithstanding, it is our belief that as scholars we must seriously consider the findings of an annual Pew Research Poll that focuses on international perceptions of the US in general, which found that between 2002 and 2010, no more than 30 percent of the Turkish population reported that they had "favorable" views of their US allies. This number reached an all-time low of 9 percent in 2007, only to climb back to 17 percent in 2010. The multifaceted political relationship between the US and Turkey began in the late 1940s with the increasing social conservativism trend in Turkey, at the time when the Democrat Party came to power. On the American side, the US created a program of military exchange with the Turkish Military in the early 1950s. In early 1960, the US created the Peace Corps and Fulbright programs, and Turkey was one of the most important destinations for American scholars and Peace Corps volunteers. This trend of increased American involvement in Turkish domestic and foreign policy has shaped the approach of the Turkish elite, including military and political circles; towards one which leans more towards American interests, rather than Turkish nation-state based interests. However, this strategic "alliance" is starting to crumble, as a result of the collapse of the Soviet Union and due to changes in US national security interests and activities following September 11th.
At the same time, however, we also think that it is important to discuss the fact that the middle of the 1990s was also a time period when more Turks came to the US to study, work, and travel than ever before, and when the US Fulbright Program to Turkey expanded to become the largest and most well-funded country program of its kind for US students, teachers, and professors to visit a foreign country for the purposes of cultural exchange. Indeed, as the world's 17th largest economy, as representing one of the world's most powerful collection of armed forces, and as a national culture that is increasingly more determined to reclaim its influence as a global force, this panel is founded upon the thesis that not since the 17th century has the reach of Turkish production, Turkish culture, and Turkish diplomacy extended as far, and had as much of an impact, as it does today.
The organizers of this panel are interested in bringing together a multidisciplinary selection of conference papers that seek to address how Turkey's 21st emergence as an economically powerful, politically stable, militarily mighty, and culturally ambitious nation affects one or more aspects of Turkey's relationship with the US (i.e., political, civil-social, economic, and/or cultural). We are particularly interested in papers that pay careful attention to on the ground politics in the rapidly changing Turkish context.
Possible areas of research and study include, but are not limited to, the following:
· The historical formation of the US-Turkey relations
· The historical formation of the American-Turkish military relations
· Influence of the Peace Corps and Fulbright programs on US-Turkey relations
· Influence of NED, NDI, IRI, and other US institutions on Turkish Domestic politics
· Transformations between "old" and "new" economic ties (i.e., actors, processes, institutions)
· The "Turkish lobby" in the US (old v. new)
· The "Israel-factor" in US-Turkey Relations
· The "Armenian factor" in US-Turkey Relations
· The "Kurdish factor" in US-Turkey Relations
· The "Global War on Terror" and US-Turkey Relations
· The rise of AKP - how the policies of "strategic depth" affect US-Turkey relations
· Turks in the US, Americans in Turkey: Intercultural exchange, cross-cultural (mis) understanding
Please send 250-300 word abstracts and a short one paragraph bio to Tugrul Keskin (email@example.com) and Joshua Hendrick (email@example.com)

In sad news today IGN has learned that id Software's longtime President Todd Hollenshead has left the company to pursue other personal interests. Point man at Quake Con and inarguably associated with the business end of id's past successes, it's sad to see the man leaving id in what could be its darkest hour. I speak of course of the studio's current issues with Doom 4, but I digress.
Bethesda PR Manager Pete Hines gave the following comment:
"After many years with the studio, Todd Hollenshead decided to leave id Software to pursue other personal interests. While Todd was not part of the development teams, he was an integral part of id Software's success as the business head of the studio and we wish him the very best in his future endeavors."
Whether or not it had any effect on Hollenshead's decision to leave id, it's worth noting that In early April rumors spread and were later confirmed that Doom 4 had been scrapped and a new version begun. That and the rumored cancelation of Rage 2 led the discussion that id might be on the rocks with Bethesda and ZeniMax. Could Hollenshead's departure be part of of that turmoil? Either as an effect or part of the solution?
Whatever the reason for his departure, Todd Hollenshead has always been a great representative for id and we wish him well in the future. Hopefully he turns around quickly and finds another place in the industry where he can help make more great games.

Quality Education in the Benedictine Tradition
Degree Programs
Financial Aid Office724-805-2555800-782-5549
Federal law (Higher Education Act of 1965, as amended) mandates that institutions of higher education establish minimum standards of satisfactory academic progress for students receiving any federal financial aid. Eligibility for Saint Vincent College institutional grants and scholarships will follow the regulations for federal aid. In addition, the Pennsylvania State Grant program and programs from other states also have their own established academic progress standards.
Students must meet these standards of academic progress to continue to receive federal loan funds.
The academic records of all students will be reviewed annually after each spring semester to calculate the percentage of attempted credits the student has successfully completed and to determine the cumulative grade point average the student has earned. Any student not meeting the standards set by this policy will be ineligible for aid until the deficiencies have been made up. An appeal process is available to students who have experienced personal illness or accident, death of an immediate family member, or other extraordinary circumstances.
Note: The FAFSA must be filed yearly to receive federal Direct Unsubsidized and Graduate PLUS Loans

Pleasant surprise this one! I had the king suite with balcony. Room was great. Really cosy. Even had a lovely fireplace. Check-in girl was really nice. Loved the balcony. Free internet, but ridiculously slow. BTW...the chocolate brownie in a dish above the fireplace isn't. It's a fire lighter. LOL.

Historical Traveler Reviews Ranch Inn Jackson
Great location, good price
Stayed here for one night in July, wish I could have stayed longer. I was very impressed with the location, it's right in the heart of town and within walking distance to just about everything. The rooms were pretty simple, not luxurious by any means but fine for a family vacation. I thought the rate was really reasonable, and the continental breakfast was decent. Had no problems with the staff.
Rude Staff, Terrible Experience
This hotel has the rudest employee named Patti who is suppposed to be working at the front desk but stands outside the hotel front door smoking - promoting a real positive image. Patti becomes angered easily and has a confrontational attitude. The internet service was not working and I reported to the night desk clerk who gave me a sheet of paper with the internet service phone number to call and report. I called them and the next day when I asked Patti when the service would be repaired, I was verbally assaulted by her stating that I had no business contacting the company and when I told her night staff had instructed me to do so and had given me an information sheet; she proceeded to call me a liar stating that was not so! She further went on to verbally abuse me stating that I had done nothing but complain....and that she did not want to hear complaints...if i did not like it there I should just leave...which we did as soon as we found another hotel. The hotel had inadequate parking on sunday due to a conference for city workers, the toilet would not flush which was promptly repaired by maintenance and the internet service did not work. The management owners were notified about this employees behavior. We were very disappointed in this hotel since it was recommended by a family member who knew the owner. The Ranch Inn hotel is clean and in a downtown location, however we found the hotel to be much overrated and overpriced. We completed our stay in a AAA rated hotel for much less than the nightly rate of The Ranch Inn and were no longer subjected to the abuse of this hotel staff. As professionals who travel a great deal of the time; we do not recommend The Ranch Inn.
Love the Ranch Inn
We have stayed at the Ranch Inn many times & would recommend it to anyone. Clean rooms. Convenient to downtown shopping & attractions. Don't have to worry about parking. Staff is friendly & helpful. Highly recommend it to anyone. It is our number 1 choice when in Jackson. Rooms are good size & has many extras - coffee pot, micro waves in most rooms & refrigerators, hair dryers. Resonable rates. Wonderful view of Snow King. Everyone is always accommodating. We will definitely stay there again.
Great Place - Great Location - Recommend to All
Very clean rooms, great central location and friendly, helpful staff made this the perfect place to stay in Jackson Hole. Great value - including an excellent continental breakfast. Will be back. Couldn't ask for more!
Try the Tower Rooms
We stayed April, 2004 in a "Tower Room" and it was quite nice. Large room with balcony looking out onto the mountains, micro, fridge, coffee pot. Clean and quiet. But, if you are going to Jackson Hole for the trendy shops, dining and night life, don't do it in April! Very little was open; the town roles up between seasons. Probably why we only paid $49 for this nice room. We did get a peek at the standard rooms at the Ranch Inn and they are standard. Stick with the Tower Rooms.
Not the Best in Town
Stayed for 5 nights summer of 2003. Water was leaking on bathroom floor, parking was inadequate. There is a bar nearby where patrons kept us up all night. Complained to the front desk but was not offered any concessions. Two floor hotel with no elevator. Would not recommend staying here.
Terrible Stay! Beware
I stayed here over Labor day weekend. Horrible place. Staff is VERY RUDE. Don't check out 45min late or they will tow your car! BEWARE
Clean, Convenient, Affordable Rooms
My wife and I stayed at the Ranch Inn on September 28, 2001 during our last vacation into Yellowstone country. We chose this hotel for it's low rates (for Jackson, WY) and convenient location near the heart of downtown Jackson. While there is nothing particularly memorable about the place, we were very satisfied with the comfort and cleanliness of our room and felt that we received fair value for our money. We would have no problem recommending this hotel to anyone who wants to spend time in Jackson but would rather save their $$$ for shopping instead of blowing it all on a room you'll only sleep in.
Great Location
Great location near the square and most shopping. The town is not large and easy to get around. The motel is clean and nice size. The free continental breakast was basic.

Yellowstone og Teton
Helguth stayed here on Jul 7, 2017 during their trip titled: USA med Hawaii.
We're all going on a Bear hunt!
... and grow to 7ft tall they are also one of the most aggressive animals in the park so getting to close
especially to a mother and calf can be dangerous. It is also the rucking season so moose, bison and elk are all a bit more unpredictable so best to keep a safe distance. Moving on we are still on our Bear hunt and visit several favourite haunts but no luck yet. Another animal on our list was Beaver so we follow a stream ...
Grand Teton National Park
... A great trip – though save for a few birds, chipmunks and squirrels, the place was barren of animals.
We left the park around 9:30 am; a line of cars that stretched back close to a mile were waiting to get in: Make sure to go early in the morning.

Grand Teton national park, Jenny Lake and Jackson
20th-21st July So yesterday morning we left camp and drove back through Yellowstone before heads to the Grand Teton national park, the scenery really changed as we drove, it was amazing that over such a relatively short distance, it changed so much. As we entered the national park we could see the mountain range spread out to the right. We stopped at the park welcome centre on the edge of Jackson lake, took some photos before heading on ...
We Just Love This Place
... to the Snake River.
We stop at the place where Ansel Adams took his iconic photo of the Snake River in 1942. Trees have grown up, but the view is essentially the same. "The National Park Service hired Adams in 1941 to capture nature as exemplified by national parks…Adams photographs helped promote and protect western U.S. landscapes." The Snake River meanders 1,000 miles from Yellowstone through the Grand Tetons all the way to ...

Saturday was a disappointment for Dave Burkholder. It wasn't just that his team lost to Ohio State as the Buckeyes swept the weekend series. It was the way his Niagara team responded within the game.
"We got down early and once we got down, that was it," Burkholder said. "There was not much fight. There was nothing showing in our tank. We've addressed it, had some great meetings and it's like a fresh start for us this weekend. Point-wise, we could be in first place with a good weekend."
The Purple Eagles can use the fresh start. At 1-6-1 overall, Niagara isn't where it hoped to be at this point. But the Atlantic Hockey season is young and at 1-1-1, the Purple Eagles have a chance to grab early conference points as they host Army tonight and Saturday (7 p.m.) in Dwyer Arena.
Army got its first win of the season on Tuesday, scoring three goals in the second period for a 6-2 win over Sacred Heart. The Black Knights are 1-3-0 in Atlantic Hockey and 1-6-0 overall, scoring a league-worst 14 goals on the season.
Perhaps the inefficient offense of the Black Knights will help a beleaguered Niagara defense. The Purple Eagles have a league-worst defense, giving up 4.67 goals per game. The ability to score in spurts has kept Niagara in games as the team is averaging 4.33 goals a game.
"Army scored three power play goals against Sacred and that's an area we've had problems with," Burkholder said. "We have the utmost respect for the Army program and how they play. They play hard and physical and it's a huge test for us."
This weekend represents the last home games for Niagara this year. The Purple Eagles play the next eight games on the road, not returning to Dwyer until Jan. 10, when they host American International.
Canisius, meanwhile, looks to parlay its momentum from Saturday's win over Mercyhurst. The Golden Griffins travel to Columbus to play Ohio State for two non-conference games, today and Saturday.
Canisius is 2-5-0 overall with an Atlantic Hockey win over the Lakers and a victory over then-No. 17 Denver.
Ohio State (6-4-0) is coming off a sweep of Niagara where the Buckeyes outscored the Purple Eagles, 10-2. The Buckeyes rank 11th in the country in goals per game (3.70) but their goaltending situation is in crisis mode.
Freshman Matt Tomkins left Saturday's game with a lower body injury that will likely sideline him for a significant part of the season. Last week, sophomore Collin Olson left the team for lack of playing time. That leaves Ohio State with walk-on freshman goalie Logan Davis.
Davis made 14 saves and gave up one goal against Niagara in the second period.
For Canisius coach Dave Smith, the trip will be a return to his alma mater.
"I'm excited to get back to Columbus. I have a lot of friends in the area and it will be great to see them," Smith said. "As far as hockey goes, the program is significantly different now so the emotions I feel there are connected with the community and the campus. The challenge of hockey is part of the job."
The challenge for the Griffs will be to build on the success of the Mercyhurst win.
"The sign of any veteran team is the ability to change things on the fly," Smith said. "If the guys didn't do that, we wouldn't have won that game. Those are things that don't get measured on the scoreboard or result directly in a goal. They're reflected in where the game is played and how the game is played and I'm really pleased with the way our team responded."

543 Tasting Notes
Another beautiful sample from Teavivre!
This oolong's dry leaf smells very different from the last, which was medium roasted. The scent is even sweeter, giving hints of lush floral goodness. Again, the leaves are rolled into little dark green nuggets with a stem pointing outward. I can't smell any nuttiness in this one, as I usually do with oolongs. Interesting!
I went with 2.5 minutes again this time, as the instructions gave a range of 1-5 to choose from. The water turned to a pleasant, chlorophyll-like green. I admit I played with the used leaves in wonder when it was done. They were complete, still attached to their stem! There is even a little bit that would have been a silver tip there! The stem is literally as long as my hand. I can't believe it rolled up so small!
The resulting tea smells more pungent than the dry leaf, and more vegetal. The flavor is so creamy. Ohhh, wow. I wasn't expecting it at all. It's faintly nutty, faintly veggie-like. And buttery! Again, I am absolutely loving this oolong. I feel like all the teas in this category by Teavivre are something that need to be savored and contemplated on. Mmmm.
My thanks go to Angel at Teavivre for including me in this tasting again! I always get so excited when I see I have a message from her.
It looks like this time it's all oolong! Which is great, because I've been very impressed with everything I've tried by Teavivre in the past. As I open the sample packet, I get the sweet scent of flowers and spring. There's also a gentle nuttiness. The leaves, to me, don't look roasted at all. They're dark green, rolled into little clusters. They must be only lightly roasted?
I followed the pack's instructions and used boiling water. It says I can let it steep from anywhere between 1-5 minutes, so I went for dead-center at 2.5. I loved watching the little nuggets bounce in the in glass teapot as they unrolled. The water slowly changed from clear to a greenish yellow hue. The spent leaves look like a serving of spinach in my infuser, fully unfurled.
The scent is very different from the dry leaf! It smells like nutty bread, almost. Or cereal! Sort of like plain Cheerios, oddly enough. The flavor is delightfully satisfying and smooth. The hints of floral flavor are still there, but not in the forefront. I can certainly taste that this was roasted instead of dried more gently like other oolongs I've tried. I suppose the loss of the fruity/grassy/floral flavor comes with that kind of processing. Which makes it come out tasting warmer and heartier. I like it! It really makes me think about the subtleties of harvesting and preparing raw leaves.
So, my mom went out of town on a business trip to the suburbs of Denver, Colorado. She asked if I wanted anything while she was out there, so of course, I asked for tea. Well, she didn't end up finding anything fancy, so she went with something weird.
The package is almost entirely in Spanish. And it's by McCormick, the same guys who make steak seasoning and gravy packets. Also, I've never had anything with linden flowers in it, so I have no idea what to expect. I have to say, the bag didn't really smell like anything aside from paper. And the scent as it brewed was strange and mildly unpleasant.
After three minutes, the tea was a pleasant peachy orange color. The flavor, however, was foreign and might take a little getting used to. It's floral but not bitter, and only a little astringent. There's something in the flavor that makes me think of spring and fresh cut grass, but sweeter. I know this might be a country thing, but have you ever pulled up a stalk of wheat grass and chewed the white part at the end? It tastes kind of like that.
Not sure I like this. Does anybody else wanna try some? I'll mail some out if you do. I'd feel bad throwing it away.
That sounds kinda yummy actually, but I like chewing on the occasional grass. Now I want to make a tea themed steak seasoning :P
This is, in general, an old fashioned tisane in Europe, a very popular one in latin countries I guess – chá de tilia, supposed to be calming and a general all purpose remedy. In this type of teas the freshness and age of the leaves (or blossoms I guess) being used really makes all the difference. I kinda like this one when it is good (though I always dislike orange blossom tea despite loving the scent of fresh orange blossom). I do love the scent when the trees are in bloom, in May, it really is unlike other floral scent, so sweet but grassy, very fresh.
McCormick handling teas isn't so different from their handling herbs; it's just different kinds of bulk leaves and packaging, after all. Maybe six years ago I was in a fabulous ethnic grocery and bought a box of their peppermint tea. There were a couple other kinds too (maybe even the linden here), but I wasn't paying close attention, so can't remember the others. I've seen linden trees in blossom, and sung a German lied with a linden tree in it ("Waldeinsamkeit", by Max Reger). But I've never drank linden tea. Sounds interesting, though!
I got this sample back in the summer from Kaliska, but I decided to keep it sealed and save it for winter. It's not actually cold here, but I suppose tonight is as good of a night as any.
The leaves are lovely. They're mostly flat green pieces with some rolled, brown, narrow leaves mixed in. I can also see a few fuzzy silver tips here and there. To an Earl Grey lover like me, they smell so promising and soothing. The bergamot scent seems much sweeter with a white tea base! There's no sharpness about it at all.
The brew comes up to a nice light tan. Upon first sip, I realize what I've been missing. Without the boldness and astringency of black tea to compete with, the Earl Grey flavors have a real chance to flourish. Backed with the light, sweet, and fresh taste of Mu Tan that reminds me of a mild darjeeling almost. Harney & Sons' bergamot… there's just something different and wonderful about it.
I shouldn't have waited so long to taste this! It would be lovely any time of the year.
Over the years, I've grabbed a sample of this flavor several times. (Between 2005 and now.) Each time I've bought it, it seemed better than the last. As if they tweak it for the better with every new batch.
This time is no exception. The caramel taste is so strong it's almost too much! I made a pot to share with my husband tonight and it made the whole apartment smell like I was baking a caramel cake! The flavor keeps the aroma's promise, too. Sweet, smooth, sinful.
On the next chilly morning we have, I'm going to make this with one part Caramel, one part Lapsang Souchong. Smoky caramel experiment!
Flavors: Caramel
Two firsts in one go! My first tea by Kusmi, which I've been meaning to get into for years, and my first violet tea. Now, where I live, we have wild Viola sororia which has no scent. They look nice, but because of them, I had no idea what to expect. I just knew that I wanted it.
I bought a box of the sachets because I wasn't sure if I would like it, and the sachets were the smallest amount I could get. I'm pretty impressed by them, though! They aren't dusty little paper things. They're soft, white cotton mesh with whole leaf tea inside.
The scent and flavor, as I expected, are very floral. It reminds me of rose tea somewhat, but without the peppery finish. It also tastes… "purple". Not quite like grape flavoring, but "purple" comes to mind. Sort of like candy. Or the way kudzu flowers smell. The black tea aspect adds a little astringency and strength to the flowers, but doesn't overwhelm them. The violet is definitely in the forefront.
Anyway, this is really interesting. Not something I'd want to drink every day, but it will get finished for sure. I look forward to exploring more Kusmi teas!
So, at 3 am last night, I decided to put the herbal content of this tea to the test. I needed to get some sleep but had been restless all night.
I took 3 bags of this stuff and steeped it in about five ounces of water for 10 minutes. When it was done, I threw in some sweetener and ice and drank it all at once. Even with the ice, the brew was dark. Strangely, it wasn't too strong. I guess it tastes a little bit more like caramel once you triple the leaf.
The resulting sleepiness I got from the tea reminds me a lot of melotonin or Neuro Sleep. A strange heaviness and sort of comfortable feeling. I fell asleep hard and had some detailed, if somewhat stressful dreams until my alarm went off. I was still feeling the effects throughout my first shift of the day. It was very slow to wear off, leaving me really sleepy at work. So, the medicinal content works, no doubt.
Finally getting around to tasting this one. I had opened it up to sniff, fully intending on making some, then I promptly forgot about it. Also, I've been concentrating on using up other teas that I have a lot of. I am so tired of Whittard's Earl Grey, guys. You don't even know.
Anyway! The dry leaf's aroma is fantastic. Bright, sweet citrus, almost exactly like starfruit! Sure, it smells like mango, too, but a little sharper and more tart. As it brews, it smells so much like Adagio's Guanabana. (Which makes me happy, because I love that tea.) It also reminds me of Adagio's old Mango flavor, the one they used to sell in the mid-2000's. They've changed it since then and I don't like it as much.
Despite how dark the brew gets, the black tea aspect is actually pretty mellow. No bitterness and hardly any astringency. It has a sort of perfumey quality, mostly in the nose, but also a bit in the aftertaste. The mango flavor is not tart at all like I was expecting. It's like the inside of soft, ripe mango. This is definitely going to get reordered. Most realistic mango tea I've ever had. I love it.
Ok. Lost my post 2 times now. Starting to go crazy. Here's the gist:
I wandered into the grocery store looking for Tazo's Rest, but couldn't find it, so I settled for this despite previous negative experiences with Yogi teas. When selecting bedtime teas, I usually go with blends that contain valerian root, which this doesn't have. Plus, I don't even like rooibos, but here I am, tempted by the promise of caramel.
I gave it the full 10 minutes, as the packaging says to steep for 5-10. The tea brewed up to a dark ambery brown, like black tea, and reeked of chamomile. To be short, it doesn't taste like vanilla or caramel. The main flavors I detect are chamomile, rooibos, nutmeg, and cinnamon. This is followed by that general "Yogi" herbal taste that I've noticed in everything I've tried by this particular brand.
As far as herbal effects go, I do feel a bit of a sleepy, comfortable feeling. I can't tell if it's the placebo effect or not, but I do feel more relaxed and ready to fall asleep. It's not as strong as Yogi's Bedtime (which contains valerian), but it still has an effect. Maybe I'll steep two bags at once next time and see what happens.
Have you tried Stash's Mellow Moments? It doesn't have valerian but for some reason it just knocks me out and it has a nice minty flavor which seems unusual in the help-you-sleep herbals I've seen. I haven't tried Tazo's Rest, but I'm with gmathis on the Yogi stuff – they like licorice too much!
My love for vanilla and chai spices overrides the fact that this is a rooibos tea. Also, it's two in the morning and my friends wanted tea. I figured this would be a good choice since there's no caffeine.
While it steeped, my brother commented that it smelled like Christmas. It certainly does, especially with the orange peel, clove, soft vanilla, and cinnamon. I served it sweetened with a splash of 1% milk, which added a very nice creaminess that blended with the vanilla. Still, the spices provide a bit of a bite at the end. They also cover up any sort of rooibos aftertaste. I honestly wouldn't know this had rooibos in it if it wasn't in the name and description. It's more like if vanilla masala chai and Constant Comment had a baby.
I'd say this is another rooibos that passes in my book.

Oh it is ON now… Howie Roseman threw down the gauntlet— he blew away half the Eagles' veteran defensive line with the release of two pretty good players—- DT's Cullen Jenkins and Mike Patterson.
Jenkins (#97) is suddenly Lost in Cap Space. He was allegedly the spiritual leader of the 2012 Eagles defense. But his departure frees up a ton of salary cap space. Howie and Chip have a new vision…
Patterson? We kinda saw it coming. Brain surgery is never a good omen. But good for Mike, the Cowboys were the first NFL team to reach out to him and his agent. He feels he still has a lot to prove.
For Eagles fans, suddenly DT is the draft speculation du jour.
Eliot Shorr-Parks of NJ.com was the first reporter to break the story on the release of Jenkins and Patterson.
Parks described how the Eagles continued to gut the roster that has been one of the most underachieving teams in the league these past two seasons when they released Mike Patterson and Cullen Jenkins on Monday—by the way, ending the eight-year career of Patterson in an Eagles uniform.
While the loss of Jenkins will likely be felt more than the loss of Patterson, the truth is that neither player will be missed that much on the field next season. The two veteran players combined for just 32 tackles and five sacks last season, numbers that the Eagles are hoping they can replace with the younger (and cheaper) combination of Cedric Thornton and Fletcher Cox—and it is speculated the acquisition of a top-flight defensive tackle in the 2013 Draft.
What will be missed, however, as Shorr-Parks writes, is the accountability that both Jenkins and Patterson showed last season.
This current group of Eagles became better known for making excuses and not admitting to the flaws that were so obvious to those watching them play. Even when things were falling apart, a number of players talked about how if just "little things" went their way, they could be a dominant team. After losses, players said how they "let the game get away" and they knew they were still the better team. These kind of frustrating comments showed perhaps the biggest problem with the Eagles these past two seasons- an unearned, unjustified sense of accomplishment.
Jenkins and Patterson, meanwhile, were two players who never displayed the attitude so many of their teammates did.
Far too often the locker room would be empty during the week, as media members waited for players to comment on a season sinking quickly. Jenkins and Patterson, however, were always two players who would stand and face the fire when others wouldn't. A look at the history of the two players shows why.
Patterson was brought up during an Eagles era when Andy Reid still had control over his team. He shared a locker room with Brian Dawkins, Jeremiah Trotter and Brian Westbrook. He missed he Super Bowl by a year, but he was still in the locker room when the Eagles were a special team.
When Jenkins joined the Eagles he brought with him a Super Bowl ring from his time in Green Bay. Like Patterson, Jenkins had been part of a winning locker room and you could tell by his comments that he was frustrated with this Eagles team. Unlike players who talked about how close the team was or how talented the roster looked, Jenkins summed it up best on Monday in his statement about leaving the Eagles.
"Sorry we didn't accomplish anything," Jenkins said.
On the field, cutting Jenkins and Patterson was an easy decision. Both players did not fit into the Eagles plans long term and made too much money to justify being on the roster. The young talent such as Fletcher Cox- and a player that is sure to come in the draft- also played a huge part. The switch from a 4-3 to a 3-4 likely didn't help either.
But while the move made sense on the field, it should not be discounted what the Eagles lost off the field on Monday. In a locker room that lacked accountability last season, the Eagles are now down two guys who many would agree actually "got it" during their time here. The Eagles showed over these past two seasons that talent alone does not win games. The right combination in the locker room and on the sideline can be just as important when putting together a winning team. The loss of Jenkins and Patterson will not change the Eagles fate next season. It does, however, leave them a gaping hole in leadership. What it does mean is that younger players are going to have to step up and be accountable in 2013 when they wouldn't or couldn't last year.

Let's bring back the Combine Results chart links now before we get into the next section:
Thanks to our intra-state friends at Steelers Depot, here is a tool that allows us to track position groups by the latest updates to measurables and drill results.
Click on each position group for the latest data as Combine weekend progresses:
Careful, that "SPECIALISTS" link may not yet be activated, as the kickers and punters will be the last guys to take the field at Indy.
But now we have more than just the "highlights" of each position group to review. Check out those "Split 10-yard" times on the players, too. Don't just fixate on the 40–yard times. The 10-yard splits are just as important.
Also please consider that these guys are performing under less than the best environmental conditions. Most of the candidates are being interviewed well into the late hours. The majority of rookies are getting to sleep by midnight at best and being awoken by 5:00 A.M. for the next day's schedule. So cut their stats some slack.

Fred Perdue (who was there) provides us with this report from gamedayr.com:
"The linebackers were put to the test on Monday at Indianapolis for the 2013 NFL Combine. As expected, all eyes were on the one and only Manti Te'o, the Heisman Trophy runner-up out of Notre Dame. Te'o has spent the last two months struggling at both football and in life, as the dude got pummeled in the national title game and then he had his dead girlfriend exposed as a hoax."
"However, and with a chance to make all the crazy talk go away, Te'o disappointed mightily. The native Hawaiian came in a good 14 pounds under his listed playing weight (241 compared to 255) and running slower than anticipated in the 40-yard dash (4.82 compared to a goal of breaking 4.8)."
"But where the star of the group struggled, several starred, and in the process very much helping their causes. Two Florida 'backers, Jon Bostic and Jelani Jenkins, impressed with far better-than-expected runs and lifts."
Georgia's Cornelius Washington, who spent the entire 2012 season in the shadow of superstar linebackers Alec Ogletree and Jarvis Jones, ran the fastest 40-yard dash of the day at 4.55 seconds.
But where Perdue drops the ball in my opinion is his failure to note that a very tired Te'o ran a more than acceptable 1.61 second 10-yard split. As JB Sage-Lion himself pointed out, even if your best time in the '40 is 4.8, that's plenty enough speed for an inside linebacker. Heck, look at Terrell Suggs' Combine time when he was a rookie— 4.85… And he plays on the outside!
Perdue was personally impressed with Georgia's Alec Ogletree, who is another highly rated linebacker with baggage.
" I thought he tested very well and flashed tremendous speed, and based on his football skills alone, I'd expect him to go in the first round as well. Talking to a couple former Bulldog players about Olgetree, he really isn't a bad guy and just tends to end up in the wrong place at the wrong time. Now is the young star's chance to make some money and Ogletree has to straighten up and fly right. On tape he is just as much of an animal as he is during testing. It's like sticking a safety in the middle of that 3-4 defense and letting him lose. He looked the part and performed every bit of it."
One under-the-radar guy who caught my eye was Connecticut's Sio Moore. He tested very well, ranking second in the bench press (29 reps) and fifth in the 40-yard dash (4.65). Moore also looked strong in the linebacker drills, showing good feet and strong instincts. I'd expect him to pick up the pace a little as he gained a lot of momentum going into his pro day.
The guy that impressed me more than anything was Georgia's Cornelius Washington. There's no way around it— his athleticism is through the roof. He had the most reps on the bench press (36), seven more than the nearest linebacker, posted the second best 40-yard dash time (4.55), the second highest vertical jump (39.0) and third longest broad jump (128.0). Looking back at his college stats, the young man who spent years in the shadow of Bulldogs stars Ogletree and Jarvis Jones didn't have the production that many of his peers had. Still, based on his performance in Indy, he seemed to be the forgotten one on that loaded Dawgs defense. I'll be taking another look at the tape of Washington after getting to see him live at the Senior Bowl as well as seeing his dominant performance yesterday.
Finally, the most impressive metric of the day, and probably of the entire combine, was Southern Mississippi's Jamie Collins'139-inch broad jump, which fell just short of the actual 12-foot marker. It was one of the most athletic feats I've ever seen with my own two eyes. Collins is an athletic freak, but the fact of the matter is he needs to shore up some things. He's a little stiff in turning his hips and staying low. Overall he is a mid-round type guy who looks to impress and move up during his pro day.
Florida's Jon Bostic is another linebacker who caught my eye. He ran a 4.61 40-yard dash and looked very fluid in the shuffling drill, showing good explosion when changing direction.
Florida defensive tackle Sharrif Floyd used the workouts to illustrate why he is rated at the top of his positional heap heading into the 2013 NFL Draft. Simply put, Floyd had a great performance at the Combine. He ran the 40 in a stunning 4.87 seconds, unofficially, with a 10-yard split of 1.68 seconds. Floyd was also phenomenal in the field drills with quick feet and good movement skills. It was obvious that the 6-fo0t-3, 297-pounder has amazing athleticism for an interior defensive lineman. The Combine helped confirm Floyd's high first-round grade.
There is no doubt that Oregon outside linebacker Dion Jordan is dripping with athleticism. He put on a clinic at the Combine with a blazing unofficial 40 time of 4.53 seconds (4.60 officially) and a 10-yard split of 1.57 seconds. While the times were excellent, Jordan was even better in the field work. He was extremely fluid, showing off super fast feet as he flew through the bags. Jordan looked awesome dropping into coverage as a linebacker. He did that well in college, so it wasn't a surprise that he looked like a natural in these drills. Jordan (6-6, 248) needs to gain weight, but he clearly is a perfect fit as a 3-4 outside linebacker.
BYU defensive end/outside linebacker Ezekiel Ansah showed off his supreme athleticism. The 6-foot-5, 271-pounder ran a sparkling 40 time of 4.62 seconds unofficially with a 10-yard split of 1.56. Ansah then did well in the field drills and gave more proof that he can handle outside linebacker in a 3-4 defense. Despite not even having seen a football game before he arrived on the BYU campus from Ghana, Ansah is an athletic freak and he did his part to maintain his early first-round status.
SMU defensive end Margus Hunt is another defensive freak. The 6-foot-8, 277-pounder put his track background on display in the workouts. He had an official 40 time of 4.60 with a 10-yard split of 1.62. That was tied for the third-fastest time. In the bag drills, Hunt showed that he is a natural bender and moved extremely well. He has very quick feet and was smooth moving between the pads. However, the big man is not all speed and finesse. The giant also tied for the lead with all the defensive linemen with 38 reps on the bench press. He truly is a rare specimen with his unique combination of size, speed and strength. Hunt's big Combine performance isn't a surprise, but he definitely helped himself. As for draft position, I'm standing firm on his mid- to late-second grade. He is long and athletic but I just don't know about him with his slender frame.
Connecticut outside linebacker/defensive end Trevardo Williams is definitely a workout warrior, but he also has enjoyed quite a bit of production over the course of his collegiate career. The 6-foot-1, 241-pounder blazed an official 40 time of 4.57 seconds with a mark of 1.61 in the 10-yard split. Williams was the fastest of all the defensive linemen. He also was very impressive in the bench press with 30 reps. That is a huge total for a sub-250 defender. Williams helped differentiate himself at the Combine.
Texas A&M defensive end Damontre Moore had a disappointing Combine after a phenomenal year at Texas A&M. The projected top five-overall selection ran a slow 40 time at 4.87 seconds unofficially (4.95 officially) with 1.69 in the 10-yard split. Moore made a second attempt at the 40, but pulled up with a leg injury. Worse than the 40, the 6-foot-5, 250-pounder managed only 12 reps on the bench press; the lowest total of any defensive lineman. Moore did at least manage to put together decent numbers in the broad jump (122) and vertical jump (35.5). However, it is easily Moore's strength that is the biggest red flag and it could cause teams to reevaluate him.
It wasn't surprising that LSU outside linebacker Barkevious Mingo looked good at the Combine. The event simply helped to confirm what everybody already knows, and that he that Mingo is extremely athletic. Mingo had one of the fastest 40 times at 4.58 seconds with a 10-yard split of 1.55 seconds. He was explosive in the field drills, too. Mingo did extremely well dropping into coverage and was very fluid in and out of his breaks. The 6-foot-4, 241-pounder is a player who thrives in space and clearly isn't big enough to play defensive end in the pros. Mingo used the Combine to show that his athletic ability is legitimate.
One highly regarded defensive end who had a mildly disappointing performance was Florida State's Bjoern Werner. His official 40 time was a slower-than-average 4.83 seconds, including a 10-yard split of 1.66 seconds. Werner did better in the defensive line field drills as he showed good feet and burst. Werner (6-3, 266) was asked to participate in the 3-4 outside linebacker drills as well, but he looked stiff in flipping his hips and redirecting. Werner's outing at the Combine demonstrated that he isn't a great fit as a 3-4 edge linebacker and would need development if he's drafted into that scheme.
Ohio State defensive tackle Johnathan Hankins ran the 40 at a time of 5.31 seconds officially with a slow 10-yard split of 1.80. It wasn't a good time for Hankins, but not terrible for a heavy tackle. Hankins didn't do enough at the Combine to narrow the gap with the higher-ranked players like Floyd, but also didn't hurt himself at all either. A few other defensive linemen are worth mentioning.
Missouri's Sheldon Richardson (5.02), North Carolina's Sylvester Williams (5.03) and UCLA's Datone Jones (4.80) all had solid Combine performances. They had decent times, but didn't blow anyone away. None of the trio hurt or helped themselves significantly.
Welp, on to the DB's and kicking specialists manana…

1. Emerging talents up front. K-State's defense lost all four starters from its defensive line last year, but don't be surprised if the dropoff is minimal next season. Travis Britz, Chaquil Reed, Matt Seiwert and Demonte Hood all stood out with nice springs for the Cats. Stopping the run and a good pass rush is a great start to developing a great defense...

This game featured everything that is good, bad, ugly, interesting and ultimately fantastic about JC football. There was a lot of offense - the teams combined for 1151 yards of total offense - and lots of points. There were also plenty of turnovers (7) and penalties (nearly 300 yards combined). Emotions ran high and there were a couple of near-altercations. There were 7 lead changes, 5 in the fourth quarter. And the outcome of the game was in doubt until the ball hit the turf in the end zone with the clock at zeroes on the final play of the game.
On a sunny day at the beautiful new stadium on the campus of Yorba Linda HS, the two remaining unbeaten teams in the National Division squared off just after high-noon (12:30 pm, local time) for the right to stay unbeaten. And more than three hours later, by the narrowest of margins, Fullerton stood alone as the final National Division team without a loss.
Somehow, Fullerton (5-0) won despite six turnovers. Somehow, Riverside (5-1) lost despite 256 rushing yards from Denzel Foster. Each team amassed well over 500 yards of offense, and over 100 yards in penalties. Riverside attempted 6 field goals, which must have at least threatened the state record, making three of them. Fullerton used trick plays for a 2-point conversion and a go-ahead touchdown in the fourth quarter, both featuring back-up quarterback Dustin Stolarski. It seems the only person with any insight as to how this one would end was Fullerton Sports Information Director Phil Thurman, who strategically featured Longoria on the cover of the gameday program.
Riverside scored first when its outstanding kicker, Michael Canahai, booted a 43-yard field goal midway through the first quarter. Fullerton answered almost immediately with a touchdown, which came on a 1-yard run by power back Nick Norman two plays after a spectacular diving 42-yard catch by Longoria at the Riverside 2. Canahai just missed a 53-yard field goal on Riverside's next possession - it was long enough but wide right. However, the Tigers went in front in the final minute of the first quarter when Foster got his first two carries of the game and went for 18 yards on his first attempt and scored on a 26-yard run on his second. Canahai's extra points made it 10-7 after one quarter.
In the second quarter, Riverside threatened to pull away, despite piling up the penalties. A lineman downfield penalty negated what would have been a touchdown two plays after an interception by Jonah Moi. (Actually, RCC also had 12 players on the field for the touchdown play, which went undetected by game officials). That led to another field goal by Canahai, this one from 42 yards out, that made it 13-7. The Tigers could have scored more but Cahanai's 46-yard field goal try later in the quarter was doomed by a low snap. Riverside scored a touchdown when Skyler Howard completed an 80-yard drive with a 13-yard scoring pass to Devon Blackmon midway through the quarter. But Fullerton blocked the extra point - Justin Marshall appeared to be the Hornet who got a hand on the ball - so despite dominating play for an extended period the Riverside lead was just 19-7.
Fullerton switched tactics on its next drive, going exclusively to the ground game, with rather spectacular results, covering 72 yards in just 4 plays that included a 26-yard scoring run by Lavorrie Johnson. Then on the conversion, holder Stolarski took the snap, stood up and ran through the line for a 2-point score, making it 19-15. Riverside drove to the Fullerton 4 on its next drive but had to settle for a 23-yard Canahai field goal with 56.6 seconds left that made it 22-15. But Fullerton answered with a quick drive of its own, highlighted by another 42-yard catch by Longoria, and got a 21-yard field goal from Casey Eyman as the half ended to make it 22-18 at the break.
In the third quarter, Fullerton threatened to take the lead and drove into Riverside territory three different times, but came away empty each time. The first threat ended when Raymond Ford intercepted an Escobar pass in the end zone. The second ended when Fullerton's Ryan Byrd fumbled just before the goal line, and Moi recovered for the Tigers in the end zone. The third drive reached the Riverside 34 before a holding penalty and three incomplete passes forced a Hornet punt.
Meanwhile, the Tigers never really threatened to score in the quarter. So the score stayed 22-18 Riverside as the third quarter ended. Riverside had the ball when the final quarter started, and drove to the Fullerton 19. But the Tigers came away empty when Canahai's 40-yard field goal attempt sailed wide left with 13:35 to play. Though it had been a hard-played, entertaining game to that point, the fun was just about to start.
Fullerton drove deep into Riverside territory on its next drive, using a 21-yard pass from Escobar to Eli Pleasant to reach the Tiger 26. Three plays later the ball sat at the 29, and the Hornets sent Eyman out to try what would have been a 46-yard field goal. But holder Stolarski, after taking the snap, instead stood up and found a wide-open Longoria along the left sideline and threw him a 29-yard touchdown pass to give Fullerton its first lead of the second half. Eyman stayed on the field to kick the extra points, making it 25-22 with 9:57 left.
It took Riverside just over a minute to answer back, however, covering 67 yards in three plays to re-take the lead. Foster scored on a 29-yard run with 8:40 left to give the Tigers a 29-25 lead. But Fullerton answered right back with a 7-play, 74-yard drive of its own, highlighted by a 40-yard pass from Escobar to - you guessed it - Longoria. Norman scored his second short-yardage touchdown of the day with 5:15 left to give Fullerton a 32-29 lead.
But Riverside answered back quickly as well, with a 52-yard pass from Howard to fullback Tonieta HiFo that got the ball to the Hornet 31. Five plays later, Howard scored on a keeper with 3:04 left to give Riverside a 36-32 lead.
That, however, allowed Fullerton more than enough time to answer back with what proved to be the game-winning drive. A penalty on the kickoff return pinned the Hornets back at their own 8, but an 11-yard pass from Escobar to Kishon Sanders gained a first down. Then not one but two 15-yard penalties helped Fullerton move down the field - each call was fairly obvious and each sent a Fullerton player to the sidelines, injured (Johnson and Pleasant were the injured Hornets) - and into Riverside territory. Then with time starting to grow scarce, Escobar threw over the middle to Longoria, who stretched across the goal line for an 18-yard touchdown catch with 26 seconds left on the clock.
The game was hardly over, however, especially when Eyman's extra point try hit the left upright and missed, leaving it a 2-point game. Riverside started its next drive at its own 2 when return man Sam Boyd mishandled the kick and the ball rolled out at the Tiger 2. But Howard threw a 23-yard pass to Marquis Thompson and a 22-yard pass to Foster to get the ball to the Riverside 47 with 10.4 seconds left. Riverside also had one timeout left, not to mention a field goal kicker with a very strong let. But Fullerton's Jarrot Thomas broke through and sacked Howard for a 5-yard loss on the next play, also forcing the Tigers to use that final timeout. On the final play of the game, Howard lofted a Hail Mary pass that reached the end zone in the vicinity of two RCC receivers and several Hornet defenders, but the ball fell to the turf incomplete.
To say the least, there were a great many statistics in this game. For Fullerton, Escobar completed 24 of 34 passes for 388 yards and a touchdown, though he also had 3 interceptions. Overall, the Hornets had 417 passing yards including Stolarski's touchdown pass on the fake field goal attempt. Longoria had 8 catches for 219 yards and 2 touchdowns, including the game-winner. Pleasant had 10 catches for 127 yards. Johnson led the Hornets with 93 yards on 20 carries. Byrd had 9 carries for 65 yards but did not return after the second of his two fumbles.
For Riverside, Howard completed 22 of 34 passes for 299 yards, one touchdown and one interception. But the real standout was the super-speedy Foster, who rushed for an astounding 256 yards on just 25 carries (that's an average of more than 10 yards per carry!) and 2 touchdowns. Ten different receivers caught passes for the Tigers, with Boyd tallying the most catches (7 for 44 yards) but QB-turned-TE Tyler Shreve gaining the most yards (3 catches for 54 yards). On defense, Moi had an interception and a fumble recovery, John Taylor had a fumble recovery and a sack, and Jeremiah Mitchell had a sack and also deflected the pass that Moi intercepted.
With the win, Fullerton is the last National Division team to stay unbeaten, a status the Hornets will put on the line next week when they travel to take on Saddleback. Riverside looks to return to the win column as it travels to Torrance to take on El Camino.

Stolarski's 2-pt conversion came on a fake kick play. Fullerton drove deep into Riverside territory twice in the 3rd but came away empty after Ford's interception and Moi's fumble recovery, both in the end zone.

Riverside had one last chance and reached the RCC 47 but couldn't quite complete a Hail Mary pass on the last play.

Some of the best meds in Denver. A very professional atmosphere and located near other various medical offices. Private and extremely clean. I felt very comfortable and the staff is extremely knowledgeable and friendly. Highly recommended!
Excellent staff and atmosphere. This is a professional office and it makes you feel like you should...in a medical setting. The caregivers are exceptional. They are a new business so their stock is getting much better by the day. They had AK-47 and a few other strains that are better than what I have tried in Denver. Highly Recommended!!!!

New: Add family tree profiles from historical records
Today, we launched an exciting new feature that allows you to add new profiles to your family tree directly from a historical record.
Previously, you could view a historical record and extract information from that record into multiple profiles in your family tree. Now you can go one step further, and add new profiles to your family tree from that very record!
For example, if you find a census record for your great-grandmother and you discover she had a sister previously unknown to you, you can now add the sister to your tree directly from the record, and extract the information about her from the record at the same time.

Nicknames: Family history research tips
Ever faced an obstacle in your family research as you look for an ancestors' name?
When viewing census records, for example, it's not uncommon to find a relative listed with their formal birth name in one record, and then listed under a nickname in another.
Nicknames are usually familiar or humorous and used as an appropriate replacement or addition to a given name. They can be a form of endearment, refer to a personal character trait or just be a shortened version.
When you stumble upon these new listings, you might think your family research has hit a brick wall. Searching for records can be difficult if you don't have all the information, but don't despair, here are some tips below to help in your family history research. Continue reading "Nicknames: Family history research tips" »
New: Enrich multiple profiles from a single historical record
Today we've extended the popular record extraction feature that lets you extract information from a historical record directly to a relevant family tree profile, to now extract to multiple profiles. Thus, when you've found a record with information on several relatives, you can easily extract the information into all relevant family tree profiles.
How does it work? Continue reading "New: Enrich multiple profiles from a single historical record" »

Our Stories: Papa's Diary
Wouldn't it be exciting to read the diary of an ancestor who recorded his or her daily activities?
Matt Unger, a 40-ish software executive in New York, was handed his grandfather Harry Scheurman's 1924 diary, written when he was 29 and had been in the US for 11 years. Matt has transcribed each journal entry at his website http://papasdiary.blogspot.com. Scheurman had immigrated from Sniatyn, then in Austro-Hungary.
Matt's project received coverage in The New York Times.
As we hear more frequently these days, family history researchers are getting bitten by the genealogy bug at ever younger ages. Although Matt was given the pocket-sized diary for a fifth-grade family history project, it wasn't until Thanksgiving 2007 that he examined it closely and decided to transcribe it.
MyHeritage interviewed Matt via email and is happy to offer his comments on this wonderful and very personal project. Continue reading "Our Stories: Papa's Diary" »

Air Dubai share new single, "Up To Me"
Air Dubai's indefinite hiatus has officially ended. The Denver pop/hip-hop band played a surprise midnight show at Pearl's on Saturday night to mark a return to the stage some seven months in the making.
Air Dubai's indefinite hiatus has officially ended. The Denver pop/hip-hop band played a surprise midnight show at Pearl's on Saturday night to mark a return to the stage some seven months in the making.
On Aug. 14, Denver hip-hop act Air Dubai will play its final show with vocalist Jon Shockness, and after that, the band will go on an "indefinite hiatus," keyboardist Michael Ray told Reverb.
When Jon Shockness released his first single as Kid Astronaut earlier this month, the track served both as his solo debut and an announcement that he is leaving Air Dubai.
Air Dubai loves you, Denver, so they're giving you a "secret show" and some free beer to kick off Valentine's Day weekend. Read more »
Denver's Air Dubai might have released its full-length, "Be Calm," this summer, but the indie hip-hop act is back with more new material, the pulsing "Love in Retrograde pt.
After a summer that included a stint on the Warped Tour and the release of the new album, "Be Calm," Air Dubai has announced that it will play a secret show at Lost Lake tonight.
Coloradans saw a different crowd head to Sports Authority Field at Mile High on Sunday. Yes, there was the occasional Broncos jersey, but by 11 a.m., the parking lot around the stadium had become overrun by a rainbow of dyed hair, as well as a sea of studs, piercings and tattoos shrouded mostly in black.
The first thing Lawrence Grivich does when sitting down for an interview with his bandmates is to pass around a half-full bottle of tequila.
With everything that happens in the music world on a weekly basis, you couldn't possibly be expected to keep up with it all. But don't worry, with the Reverb Week in Playlist we'll keep our ears to the ground for the important music news and releases of the week and compile it into the most digestible form we know: a playlist.
Air Dubai has been having the best summer ever. Today, they kicked off a lengthy run on the 2014 Vans Warped Tour, and to celebrate, the Denver hip-hop group premiered the new track, "Afterglow," on mtv.com.

Atelopus coynei
Atelopus coynei is a species of toad in the Bufonidae family. It is endemic to Ecuador. Its natural habitats are subtropical or tropical moist lowland forests, subtropical or tropical moist montane forests, and rivers. It is threatened by habitat loss.[1]
It was named after evolutionary biologist Jerry Coyne, who collected the holotype in a swamp on a frogging trip to western Ecuador as a student in the late 1970s.[2] It was thought to be extinct for many years, but was observed and photographed on February 7, 2012 [3]
