Thanks for the contest iMore!
Imore rocks!!
I'll be honest.... I LOVE my current iPad but my wife is dying for one of the mini iPads so she could finally ditch her Kindle!
I want the iPad Mini! it's just perfect! :D
Love everything about the iPad mini. Would love to have one!
More and more I'm willing to pay the premium despite the move to closed appliances. The designs are just done too well.
Wonder if a gen 4 iPad is going to be given awsy
Thanks in advance.
I have an iPad 1, so I'm excited that the iPad mini has been announced. I'd love to win/get one!
Woot! Ipad Mini is here!
I would be even happier if I win The Ipad :p
Have a new touch ordered, but now thinking might want a mini instead. Would be awesome to win one. Really POed that my iPad 3 has already been replaced by better model after only 6 months.
I will use this iPad mini for good, not evil. Scouts honor!
329.00 seems like a lot of money for a smaller version of the iPad and only 16GB, I will have to think about this for a little while.
I would like to have one :)
Hopefully I'll win an iPad mini from iMore!
This iPad Mini will get a lot of people using iOS. $329 starting price is so damn good. I think the black version is a lot more devilish compared to the white one. :D Good job to Apple for coming up with this. I can't wait to read iMore's review on this! Hope it is as epic as it looks.
woohoo!! I want one!
In on this!
Would love to win! (Sorry if this is a duplicate or triplicate. I was getting errors at work while trying to comment).

An iPad mini would be a perfect birthday for me in two weeks!!
Win, win win
I would love to win an iPad Mini for my parents! They've been hinting (or rather bugging) me to buy them an iPad for Christmas.
yes please!
Please pick me!
I'd love to win one of these!
Oh boy, I've been waiting for a smaller iPad for so long. This is just great! Smaller, thinner, lighter. And cute, might I add. Just the thing I've been waiting for.
Drives me crazy though that in my country, Poland, every single iDevice is always priced higher (and sometimes MUCH higher) than they are in the US.
Take the iPad mini for example: http://d.pr/i/tN4Q - it's 1449 PLN for the cheapest model! Which is like $483. To meat your price of $329 it should be about 987 PLN. But, of course, it's not.
Drives me absolutely crazy. It's like $154 more. Or put in other words, it's almost two times more (46% more). Why does it have to be so much more expensive here in Poland?
I guess the only thing left for me is to keep my fingers crossed and pray so maybe I can get one from you guys at iMoore.
After just 6 months, Apple is now releasing a new iPAD! Will the ever loyal Apple fans upgrade their iPAD 3 to this 4th generation iPAD in such short period of time? Let's see!
I love Apple products and would love to add mini iPad to my collections
I would love an iPad mini 64GB with cellular data, it would make reading on the morning commute to college that much more fun.
Mini 4 me please!
I am destined to win this!
I think they have narrowed it down to the perfect size.....was that a pun?

Could this possibly be my first iPad? Thanks iMore!! :)
It's tough surfing the web on an IPhone 4S, so the new iPad mini would be awesome.
Anyone notice how the phones are getting larger and the iPads smaller, almost like they're going to converge at a perfect size?

I'll take a Mini.
I would love an iPad mini as an early Christmas gift!

I would love a white one! Thx imore!
I'm new to Apple products... Had an SG2 and an android tablet... Now have an iPad 3rd gen and an iPhone5... I'd love to have an iPad mini... Although, have to agree... a bit put off by the $329 price tag... Thought $299 would be better...
thanks imore!
Me! Me! Me! Me! MEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!! :)
Can't wait to try one in person. May be the perfect photographers companion.
So the iPad Mini is finally here!!!
would love to win one. costs too much to buy for me. Thanks for the opportunity guys. love this place!
yeah, love free stuff.
It was smart of Apple to have the iPad mini resolution match the iPad 2 - I am not sure many developers would be thrilled to create special UI elements for a different resolution. Heck, some apps haven't even updated for the iPhone 5.
iMore is a great source to learn everything about Apple. Now I couldn't be happier to win the iPad mini to understand Apple better.
Go mini or go home. Thanks iMore!
been waiting for this since last year...
I would love to have an ipad mini. My wife is in dire need of her own ipad so that she can read books, surf the web, and of course everyone's favorite....Facebook. Plus my son would love for her to stop taking his ipad that he uses to do his school work on. Please pick me.
Very interested in getting the iPad Mini for my kids to share (5 and 7 years old). Would be a great addition.

But, might the bracer need to know the present to predict the future? The bracer may need to be able to tap into everything going on right then in order to extrapolate the future,
No, it doesn't *need* to do this. Probability always include the uncertainty in your knowledge as well as uncertainty in the world itself. And the bracer only gives probabilities and numbers, not certainties. It does mathamancy, not predictamancy.
and the only limitation on accessing this ability is knowing what questions to ask.
We can take reasonable guesses on the limitations though.
For example, when the dwagons were unveiled, and Parson was talking about the probabilities of victory. He said "depending on the unknown caster, it could be between 50% and 80%" or something like that.
Are you really saying that, if he'd just asked "What's the probability that it's a shockamancer? lookamancer? thinkamancer? " and so on, he would have been able to read off of the bracer the exact unit that was there? And that, after so much time with the bracer, he didn't know that, and proceeded to ask the entirely stupid questions of "what's the probability we'll win if it's a [something]mancer?"
I think it's quite reasonable to judge based on his actions that no, he could *not* have gotten that intel just by asking a few quick questions of his bracer. Otherwise he would have done that.
Kreistor wrote:The truth is that we have no idea how Parson is inputting his questions to the bracer, and until that has been expounded on, it is still undefined. He may have drop down menus to select unit type, a range of levels, averages, weighted averages, and a host of other options. Speculation is not going to answer this question.
I think we've seen that it's not dropdown menus. It's subvocalization, natural thinkamancy - similar to how commanders give orders to units and suchlike.

A tribute from Don Jackson: http://www.ottawacitizen.com/friend+...#ixzz286SXHmfB
Can't skate but love to watch
What a sad day for Canadian Figure Skating, as we not only lost a Legend and a Classy Lady, but the skater who really did start the great tradition of Canadian Figure Skaters shining on the World Stage. She truly was a trailblazer.
I was the last person to meet her that day at the Civic Arena and when I first tried to talk to her, just who I was meeting hit me hard and I literally stumbled over my first sentence I said to her. I took a deep breath, started again and apologized for sounding like an idiot. Barbara Ann simply took my hand in hers and said, "It's alright my dear, we all do it at times when talking to someone."
As others have said, she made you feel like you were the only one in the room w/her and it didn't matter what the schedule was or if she was running late, if she was talking to you, then she was going to take all the time in the World to talk to you. There aren't too many people like that these days sadly.
Godspeed Lovely Lady. Namarie Tari o Helce.
(Farewell Queen of Ice)
Another great article:
My mom owned a bike that her parents had sold .. from way back when they would have been little girls. I always teased my mom that the bike would have been worth a small fortune if she had held onto it.

Barbara Ann Scott, Canadian Figure Skater, Dies at 84
By RICHARD GOLDSTEIN
Published: October 1, 2012
Barbara Ann Scott, who became a Canadian heroine at 19 when she won figure skating gold at the 1948 Winter Olympics, succeeding Norways Sonja Henie as the premier womens skater in a sport Europeans had dominated for decades, died on Sunday at her home on Amelia Island, Fla. She was 84.
The Canadian Press, via Associated Press
Barbara Ann Scott practicing in St. Moritz, Switzerland in 1948.
Jonathan Hayward/The Canadian Press, via Associated Press
Barbara Ann Scott in 2006.
Her husband, Tom King, confirmed her death.
Growing up in Ottawa, Scott idolized Henie, the womens singles champion at the last three Olympics before World War II. Emerging as a champion in her own right, Scott was hailed as Canadas sweetheart when she put her country on the international sports map, prompting a toy company to create a Barbara Ann Scott doll. It became a cherished gift for a generation of Canadian girls.
Scott was the first North American to capture the world and European championships. She won both in 1947, and again the next year.
Her most spectacular triumph came at the 1948 St. Moritz Winter Games in Switzerland, where she became the first, and only, Canadian to win an Olympic championship in figure skating singles, triumphing on an outdoor rink rutted from hockey games. She was also a multiple North American and Canadian national champion.
The former Canadian prime minister Mackenzie King, who died in 1950, said Scott gave Canadians courage to get through the darkness of the postwar gloom.
And she charmed with her youthful glamour. Life magazine, reporting on her 1947 world championship victory in Stockholm, called her a shy, blue-eyed Canadian beauty who was undeniably lovely in face and form.
When Scott returned to Ottawa, her hometown, after her world and European figure skating triumphs in 1947, tens of thousands greeted her, and the mayor presented her with a yellow convertible on behalf of the city, the license plate reading 47-U-1 (for 1947, You Won).
Scott gave the car back when Avery Brundage, the head of the United States Olympic Committee, questioned whether her acceptance of it might jeopardize her amateur status and make her ineligible for Olympic competition. But the car was returned to her after she won Olympic gold in 1948 and decided to turn professional. It was repainted blue with the license plate updated to 48-U-1.
Scott usually dominated the compulsories, the tracing of figure-eight variations, which accounted for 60 percent of the scoring in her era, but she deftly executed spins and leaps as well. At 13, she became the first female skater to complete a double lutz in competition.
She was delicate, precise, exact, meticulous simply perfect, said the American skater Dick Button, who won the mens singles in St. Moritz, joining with Scott to herald the international emergence of North American skaters.
Button, who won again at the 1952 Winter Games but is known today more for his televised skating commentary, told Sports Illustrated in 1988 that in her St. Moritz gold medal performance, Scott did everything right, and there was nobody to challenge her who was better in one particular area, either compulsory figure or free skating.
In reflecting on the exactness of her compulsories, Scott said: I like everything to be neat and tidy and symmetrical. I tried to get as near perfect a circle as possible.
Scott was named Canadas athlete of the year for 1945 and again for 1947 and 1948. After her Olympic triumph, she embarked on a pro ice-show career, appearing at Christmastime in 1948 at the Roxy theater in Manhattan. She went on to tour with several companies.
With one, the Hollywood Ice Revue, she made her entrance at Madison Square Garden in 1955 in an evening wrap made of 546 white foxtails, 85 dyed gray and 375 blue, Life magazine reported, lauding her fresh-faced teenage aura. The wrap rendered her exhausted and nearly immobilized, Life said, before she shed it to begin her routine.
She continued to perform until her marriage in 1955 to Mr. King, the press agent for the Hollywood Ice Revue, in which she succeeded Henie as the featured attraction. They settled in Chicago, where Kings business interests were based, but she was hardly forgotten in Canada.
Even though I was a male skater, she was the one person I looked up to, Donald Jackson of Canada, the 1962 mens world figure skating champion and 1960 Olympic bronze medalist, told The Ottawa Citizen in 1999. Barbara Ann Scott was the one big idol that we skaters knew, that everyone knew.
Barbara Ann Scott was born on May 9, 1928, in Ottawa, the daughter of Clyde Scott, an army colonel. She began skating at an Ottawa club when she was 6 and won the Canadian junior championship at 11. When she was 12, her father died, and friends and other Ottawa residents raised money to send her to competitions. She captured the first of her four Canadian national senior titles at 15.
After her pro career ended, Scott trained and rode show horses, owned a beauty salon and did charitable work. In their later years, she and Mr. King lived in Fernandina Beach on Amelia Island, in northeast Florida.
Scott carried the Olympic torch before the 1988 Calgary Games. She bore a torch again, this time into Canadas House of Commons, preceding the 2010 Vancouver Games, where she was among the Canadian flag-bearers. She donated much of her memorabilia, including her Olympic gold medal, to the city of Ottawa in 2011.
On the 60th anniversary of her Olympic victory, she spoke of the moment she received that gold medal.
It was a blinding snowstorm, Steve Milton quoted her saying in Figure Skatings Greatest Stars (2009). Ill never forget seeing the flag go up with the snow falling and hearing O Canada so far away from home.
Thank you so much for the obit.
I love this quote.Even though I was a male skater, she was the one person I looked up to, Donald Jackson of Canada, the 1962 mens world figure skating champion and 1960 Olympic bronze medalist, told The Ottawa Citizen in 1999 Barbara Ann Scott was the one big idol that we skaters knew, that everyone knew.
Famously, Barbara is the only woman from outside Europe to win the European Championships, which she did in both 1947 and 1948. This video features her winning the 1947 European Championships:-
After the 1948 European Championships (in which not only did Barbara win the Ladies event, but Dick Button the Men's competition as well), non-Europeans were banned from competing in the Championships!

I believe the Times article MIGHT be incorrect in saying she was the first female to complete a double lutz in competition. I have read that Alena Vrzáňová of Czechoslovakia was the first woman credited with a double lutz, performed at the 1949 World Championships.
According to more than one article on Barbara Ann, she landed the double lutz in competiton in 1942 at the age of 13! The same information is in the Wikipedia article on her at: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barbara_Ann_Scott
Can't skate but love to watch
I looked in vain for a story on her passing in the Toronto Star. Online, yes but nothing in the print version. Isn't it ironic that the paper breathlessly reported Justin Bieber vomiting on stage yet nothing about a Canadian heroine? I'm so glad that others stepped up and paid tribute. I emailed the paper today to complain. I'm sure nothing will happen but I feel better for having spoken up.

The Ottawa Citizen had it on the front page, and other articles on the op ed page and in the sports section. Lots on the local radio station (CBC) too. At least she was well remembered in her home town!
I know. But I do not approve. And I am not resigned.
(Edna St Vincent Millay)
Such a graceful beautiful woman. Classy too.
In Wiki's piece on the lutz, it says Alena was the first. In Wiki's bio, it says Alena was the first.
Barbara seemed like quite a neat lady! I love watching the youtube clips of her. Love knowing she was the female Dick Button of her time, winning so many competitions, including Europeans!
Check out the jump history section of the Jackson Skates website: http://www.jacksonskates.com/html/jumphist.html
It refers to Barbara Ann Scott as the first female to complete a double lutz in "official competition" in 1942.
I suspect that Alena Vrzáňová (Aja Zenova) had the first at Worlds.

Can't skate but love to watch
SkateBuzz has posted a video tribute and details of the memorial for Barbara Ann here: http://www.skatebuzz.com/ViewNewsArt...e-b081cb55ad18
The article mentions both the book of condolence currently available at Ottawa City Hall and an onine book of condolence at: http://www.oxleyheard.com/obituaries.php
Can't skate but love to watch
An update:
I actually got a response from the Toronto Star. I was told that she got 2/3 of a page in the later edition (I missed it) and that the sports dept. felt that she was an exemplary Canadian. I feel better knowing that she was acknowledged.
I'm surprised at how much her passing has affected me. The U.S. has had so many female Olympic gold medalists but Canada has had only one and that was Barbara Ann! She really meant so much to Canadian figure skating fans. All of the little girls of the time had Barbara Ann dolls or caps or skating costumes and we all pretended to be her on the ice. So I'm still sad.
I see that the funeral will be held in Florida. I hope that somehow the response here can be passed on to her family members.

Matthew and Trevor are the dynamic duo behind one of Zazzle's most popular stores, TDSWhite. Specializing in awesome holiday products and all things classic weddings, they've been selling their creations on Zazzle since its early days. Trevor has a background in photography and design, and Matthew has the writing chops, which is put to good use copywriting descriptions for their products.
If we had to describe our style, we'd say it's timeless, classic and long-lasting. When we're focusing on designing Zazzle custom postage or wedding products, we'll make sure to include a beautiful white gown, flowers that don't go out of fashion (like roses) or popular colors for the season.
We're especially proud of our Zazzle custom postage for the holidays, which incorporate winter scenes and snowflake patterns. They're a hit with customers. As for weddings, our background in floral photography helped us design successful products. We started out with Zazzle custom postage, and as more products were added, like invitations or towels, we adapted our designs to fit the products.
One of our biggest pieces of advice when designing for weddings is to pay close attention to color in your products. We try to keep our designs timeless, but we also pay attention to popular colors for each season. The color selection for wedding products in the fall and winter is different than spring and summer. There's more earth tones, bright oranges and reds. As you go into winter, cool colors like blues, greys, bright red and white are popular all the way through the holiday season.
As if creating and designing on Zazzle isn't enough to keep Matthew and Trevor busy, Matthew is also a screenwriter & novelist. Trevor designs all of his book covers. Check out their work at Matthew's website: http://www.MatthewGrantOnline.com.

|James Hill, 76
|Written by TRF Times
Middle River - James Hill, 76, died at his apartment in Middle River on Saturday, June 23, 2012.
Funeral services will be held at 11 a.m. Thursday, June 28 at First Lutheran Church, Middle River, with Rev. Sheila Michaels officiating. Casket bearers include Jeremy Neste, Bill Olson, Jeff Kaercher, Conrad Burrell, Melvin Wappula and Raymond Dahl. Honorary casket bearers include his cronies from the Legion. Military Honors will be provided by the Middle River American Legion and the Minnesota National Guard Honor Guard. Interment will be held at the Finnish Cemetery, Middle River.
Visitation will be held for one hour prior to the funeral service at the church on Thursday.
James Clifford Hill was born on Aug. 19, 1935 in Thief River Falls, to Edward and Hilda (Waisanen) Hill. They moved to Cedar Township, Marshall County when he was two. He attended country school through the eighth grade and then graduated from Middle River High School in 1953. As a young man, he worked in the Iron Range of Minnesota for a few years.
He served in the U.S. Army in the early 1960s. He earned a sharpshooter award while in the Army.
He was married to Sylvia Olson in June 1969 and to this union one daughter Karla was born. They lived in Middle River for a few years and then moved to the family farm in Cedar Township for many years. He worked at Arctic Cat in Thief River Falls for over 15 years. He worked at Kiene Farms in Kennedy, until 1995. Jim suffered from arthritis and was disabled from it. Jim moved into the Royal Manor Apartments in 1998.
In his younger years, Jim played Legion Baseball. He spent many years in his lifetime hunting. In his later years, Jim enjoyed his daily drives on the bunny trail and visits with his buddies at the American Legion in Middle River. He enjoyed baseball, watching his grandson Brandon play in Middle River and also watching the Minnesota Twins. He was also an avid Minnesota Viking fan. He also liked walking the trails at his brother's farm and Sunday afternoon visits at Karla and Dan's house were special. He was very proud of his grandchildren and they brought him great joy.
He was a member of First Lutheran Church in Middle River and the American Legion in Middle River.
James is survived by his daughter Karla (Dan) Loerzel, Middle River, two grandchildren Nicole and Brandon Loerzel, one brother George (Millie) Hill, Middle River, one nephew Roger (Mary) Hill, Montevideo, one great niece and nephew, and several great-great -nieces and nephews as well as many friends.

The Hills Have Eyes (2006) is directed by Alexandre Aja and stars Aaron Stanford, Kathleen Quinlan, Emilie de Ravin, and Vinessa Shaw. This is yet another remake out of Hollywood. The original The Hills Have Eyes (1977) was directed by a pre- Nightmare on Elm Street, Wes Craven. However here is a remake that is worth the watch, especially if you like films that have inbreeding, genetically altered, cannibalistic freaks.
The film is about the Carter family and their cross country trip across the desert to San Diego. They get lost in the hills and have a run with its residents. Turns out these people, who have been living in solitude from the rest of the world, do not like trespassers.
Now before I saw the new Hills Have Eyes I went and watch the original. The film was okay and I am sure back in 1977 it was scary. I did see the potential and reasoning for a remake. There were so many places to go with the story. Alexandre Aja who not only directed but adapted the original screenplay added a real story of survival, horror, and a true testament to the human spirit that I haven't seen in a horror movie in a long time.
This film is not for the timid. It is brutal. At times you do remind yourself that it is only a movie but what you are seeing is so real and unrelenting that you really do have a sense of what these characters are going through.
Aaron Stanford is superb as the son-in-law/ new father who takes control of the situation. I got curious as to who this actor was and was surprised to learn that he is fire throwing Pyro in X2 (2003) and X-Men: The Last Stand (2006). He displays some real acting that showcases what is to come for this young actor.
So if you have weak stomach stay away. If you are daring head for the hills and see this brutal horror film, just promise me won't stop the DVD and take a break. The Carter family never got a break and neither should you.

Scott Joseph | "Choice" Reviews
April 5, 2013 | WMFE - Orlando restaurant critic Scott Joseph is happy to see a lot of new eateries opening in Central Florida. He likes to have a lot of choices for novel places to grab a bite...but he says the trend in some new restaurants where diners choose every detail of their meals may just be a few too many choices for him. This week, Scott tells 90.7's Nicole Creston about his visits to three new "choice" eateries in Central Florida.

Sounding more and more like a presidential candidate on his visit to a high-tech facility in Austin, U.S. Sen. Ted Cruz addressed the need to end the Affordable Care Act in order to expand job growth.
Cruz said he doesn't have the numbers to defund the program, he said that effort must come from regular people.
"So where I am focusing my energy is speaking directly to the American people, working to energize and mobilize the American people," Cruz said.
Fronteras: Remember those hard-shelled, spicy ground beef tacos that populated American kitchens a few decades ago? That's not the taco of today. Today it's grilled fish, kosher beef, Korean barbeque and fried eggs. We're talking all things taco: From the evolution of the taco and how breakfast tacos are a morning staple close to the heart in South Texas, to Kosher tacos and tacos in the Navajo Nation.
Texas Attorney General Greg Abbott has been fighting for years to keep voter ID laws in place for Texas, and yesterday U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder filed a lawsuit against the Texas voter ID law, one of the strictest in the country, alleging that it disenfranchises minority votes.
Abbott said the move is just part of the Obama administration's link to the Texas Democratic Party and is a campaign tactic to build support for the party going into 2014.
San Antonio District 7 Councilman Cris Medina is the latest to throw his support behind the proposed non-discrimination ordinance, which would extend protections for veteran status, gender identity and sexual orientation.
In a statement, Medina wrote:
"I am supporting the proposed ordinance because I oppose discrimination in all forms."
San Antonio District 8 Councilman Ron Nirenberg's Chief of Staff, Jeff Bazan, has resigned nearly a week after a secret audio recording was leaked to the San Antonio Express-News.
People around City Hall are on edge about what they say following the release of a secret recording that revealed homophobic comments made by District 9 Councilwoman Elisa Chan and her staff members.
In the audio, given to the Express-News by former Chan staffer James Stevens, who recorded the strategy meeting, are comments by Jeff Bazan, then Chan's chief of policy, who at one point makes talks about sexual orientation by linking it to incest.
It's a sign of the inevitable passage of time that we find ourselves weekly, even daily, bidding farewell to our few remaining links to that great gesture of American music which we know fondly as "The Great American Songbook." One such link, one of the last, passed away on Tuesday night, August 20th. Sadly, we must say our farewells to Marian McPartland.
The San Antonio Baby Café, a new drop-in breastfeeding center for moms, is set to open in the Fall pending approval of the center's lease that could happen next week. It is all part of the Metropolitan Health District's goal to make San Antonio a healthier city.
"We're real excited about it and there's a huge demand," said Metro Health Director Dr. Thomas Schlenker about the new center. "There's so many women who care about this but can't find the resources they need."
In the first segment:
Next Monday is the first day back for most public schools, including those at San Antonio Independent School District. SAISD heads into the new year with a new superintendent, a new set of curriculum requirements, a possible new deal with UIW, and likely a new set of challenges.
SAISD Superintendent Sylvester Perez joins us to talk about back-to-school excitement.
In the second segment:
According to the San Antonio Express-News, Attorney General Greg Abbott, who is running for governor in 2014, has spent nearly $4 million on 31 lawsuits against the federal government in the last nine years, ten of which his office counts as wins.

|These pack well for lunches, great for traveling and for mailing to someone you love! A chocolate lovers dream bar!
Jenni, Curt and Chad, really did try to keep DJ Tony Tone from eating all of them, but he even found the extra stash!
|Just add the nutella to the top, slather on as much as you like!
These are great frozen with ice cream in the center of two and you'll have instant dessert for company,!
Every Sunday night is Dexter night in our house, we are all huge fans! Everyone piles in around 6pm and we sit watching reruns until the new season starts and you guessed it, it's this week, 1st episode of season 5, it comes on at 9pm. Amazing how addicted everyone in our family is, in anticipation to watching this series. Michael C Hall, never ceases to amaze us on each new story line. So each week of course I cook a new dinner, which usually consists of an array of appetizers, this week its Traditional Sunday Sauce with ravioli and this new chocolate chip bar dessert. We have one special guest DJ Tony Tone tonight, that is absolutely addicted to Chocolate more than watching Dexter, he will probably skip dinner and eat them all before anyone notices they are all gone! That's ok, shush..... he doesn't know I made a double batch!
1 stick softened butter
1/2 c light brown sugar
1/2 c regular white sugar
1 tsp vanilla 2 tsp Hazelnut liqueur Frangelico
Beat the above ingredients until fluffy.
2 eggs
In another bowl, combine: 2 1/4 c flour
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp baking soda
1 cup chopped chocolate bar or chunks
optional 1/2 cup chopped hazelnuts
Mix all dry together until well incorporated and add to the butter mixture, then stir in 1 cup of a dark chocolate bar cut up into the batter. ( you would add the nuts at this point) *Press the batter into the butter parchment lined pan as directed below, dough is very thick. Before going into the oven add to the top 1/2 cup Nutella swirled over the top and 1/4 cup mini semi sweet chocolate chips .
*Pat down into a jelly roll pan buttered and lined with parchment paper.
Bake at 375 for 11 minutes. Do not over bake, they will dry out.
Cool completely before slicing into bars.
So, the end of a great first episode, it went by way to fast, hope you have a chance to get addicted to these Nutella Chocolate Chip Bars... and Dexter....we have all four seasons.....can't wait to see what Dexter's up to this season 5~

After a full year of testing a radio frequency identification project at two of its campuses, the Northside Independent School District has decided to discontinue its student locator pilot at John Jay High and Anson Jones Middle Schools.
Students at Jay and Jones will no longer have to wear the RFID badges that projected their location on campus to school administrators. The $270,000 project started last fall as a way to take student attendance.
The Texas House has given initial approval to a transportation funding plan that uses money from the gas tax rather than tapping the Rainy Day Fund.
As it stands today, and has since 1991, 20 cents of every gallon used to fill up your car has gone to the state's highway fund with the stipulation that five cents of it would go to fund education.
House Joint Resolution 2, authored by Rep. Joe Pickett, D-El Paso, would stop that diversion. Rep. Larry Phillips, R-Sherman, is the co-sponsor of the bill and explained the difference between the House bill and the Senate version.
The San Antonio Public Library could be tightening up its internet security measures to keep kids from seeing something they shouldn't online.
Currently, there are no filters installed on computers located at branch libraries or the central library downtown, according to the library's community and public relations manager, Caitlin Cowart.
Instead, users must click an agreement before surfing the internet that outlines terms of use, said Cowart. Additionally, Cowart said staff members monitor users in the open spaces where computers are.
San Antonio Animal Care Services will soon be reevaluating the areas where the highest animal problems are being reported.
Using a geographic information system, Animal Care Services collects all kinds of information about the city's stray animal population, where the highest number of bite cases are coming from, and where deceased animals are being found.
Public Information Officer Lisa Norwood said that information helps focus the department's efforts.
This week, KPAC's James Baker and yours truly are working with a group of area high school students, offering them an opportunity to learn the ins and outs of radio production. We'll be recording and interviewing young classical musicians, and editing the material into a final project using the techniques they learn. One of the students, Lennon Maldonado, a recent Thomas Jefferson High School graduate who will be attending San Antonio College in the fall, had this to say about today's experience:
Texas Democrats may still have a chance to be relevant with voters in the state following this past month's abortion debate and efforts to rally Hispanic voters.
While Republicans at the state capitol are still celebrating the recent passage of a bill that will impose restrictions on abortion facilities, behind the scenes there is uncertainty for the party.
Republican pollster Dr. David Hill said that uncertainty is especially the case for how Hispanic voters see the Republican party.
It took lawmakers ten hours of debate to pass the strictest abortion legislation Texas has ever seen on a vote of 19 to 11 Friday night.
Democratic lawmakers in the Texas Senate tried 21 times to change the bill by adding resolutions but none of those attempts were successful. Sen. Judith Zafarinni, D-Laredo, was one of those who tried to change the bill.
"As a pro-lifer I tried mightily to amend this bill to prohibit the abortion of an unborn child after 5 months," Zafarinni said. "Please remember that 11 Democrats voted for that amendment today."
Segment 1:
When we think about the filibuster we think about Jimmy Stewart collapsing on the floor of the Senate in the movie "Mr. Smith goes to Washington," or Rand Paul and his drone filibuster, and now maybe you think of Texas State Sen. Wendy Davis's filibuster at the end of June.
For the Democrats in the U.S. Senate, the party that controls that chamber in Congress, they think of a headache.
Under a hot San Antonio afternoon sky, Texas Attorney General Greg Abbott announced his gubernatorial candidacy Sunday at historic La Villita.
A crowd of about 200 supporters waited in 100-degree temperatures through a theatrical production of more than an hour for their candidate to appear on stage at historic La Villita in downtown San Antonio.
This is the weekend for Camp I-Wanna Pet for families who have been thinking of adopting.
With its admittedly corny catch-phrase, "a pet that will love you 's'more' than anything," Lisa Norwood with Animal Care Services said the city hopes to draw in more adoptive families than usual with Camp I-Wanna Pet this weekend only.

Audio-Technica ATH-CK10 Portable In-Ear Headphones
" These are most likely the best IEM's you will ever find for trance, let me explain, firstly it is as if they are fine-tuned and sonically crafted for Trance and similiar genres, all the vices you heard in these IEM's in other genres suddenly become virtues and they simply come alive and you are swept away. Secondly, there is something about the sound signature in these IEM's that is trance..." --kiteki
" CKS line improves the main problem of traditional audio technica products which was bass. CKS50 did not focus on the quantity but the quality of bass, it does not have the quantity for hard rock music but it was tight and powerful enough for pop-rock also it still have the sweet mids like audio technica do which makes my perfect choice for j-pop female vocal." --Kiln

Soundstage is full and wide with great detail and clarity. Very fluid, very listenable and non fatiguing! Comfortable and stays securely in your..." --volly
Audio Technica ATH-CK7 Titanium Earphones
" CK7 earphone is a nice detailed ear piece with titanium housing which makes it very durable. For me, although i am not using it very often this works the same as it used to be the first day i bought it. They require burn in time at least 100 hours and you can definitely tell the difference in the bass section and the mids. Comfort: i would recommend to be worn..." --FarCry
Audio Technica CK100
"I recently bought these as an upgrade to my Head Direct RE0's. The RE0's are outstanding value for money, and there is not many headphones that can beat it ... until I got my hands on the CK100's. The CK100 packaging box is nice - very simple, and does the job more than adequately.

Audio-Technica ATH-IM50 Dual symphonic-driver In-ear Monitor headphones
"This IEM is vocal oriented and so they are especially for vocal lovers. It is clean, detailed and upfront. This is not a basshead IEM instead it is punchy, detailed maybe a little slow on some really fast tracks but generally it is quite involving and fast. There is no midbass bloat I could hear so there is no veil in the mids. The guitars especially sound amazing on these..." --ozkan
Audio-Technica ATH-CKS99 | SOLID BASS Inner-Ear Headphones (Japan Import)
"The CKS99s are, without a doubt, a consumer-oriented headphone in its sound signature. However, despite the prominently advertised bass and the definite emphasis toward that end, the very well-controlled lows rarely step out of place. First off the design and build. Like other members of the CKS lineup, the CKS99s are a half in-ear design. The shells are larger and stick out..." --batduck8

Audio Technica ATH-IM02 balanced amature inner earphone
" Comfort & Fit First thing to note, these earphones use balanced armature drivers rather than dynamic. Because of this getting a good seal is critical for the sound. Without a proper seal they sound tinny with no bass. Straight out of the box the fit is awkward as you have to sit there fiddling with the memory wire that sits around the ear so that it sits firmly...." --dogroll
AUDIO TECHNICA ath CK90Pro
" Anyone looking for a highly balanced, highly detailed sound look no further. The CK90 pro is a great IEM and is unfortunate it doesn't receive as much recognition as it should. The best part of it's smooth sound, is it's lush mids; on par with great mid names such as Sennheiser and Shure. The bass is good for an armature driver. It has great presence and impact, but it lacks the..." --bisayaboi

Cellar/Tasting Notes "As I have consistently written in the past, this limited production cuvee, from a 12-acre site that contains a parcel of extremely old vines, 85% Merlot and 15% Cabernet Franc, is meant to last three decades or more.

Living, Studying and Working Safely @ ODU
Your safety and security at Old Dominion is our highest priority. Students, faculty and staff are encouraged to partner with the university and utilize the services, initiatives and training provided by the Office of Public Safety. The office is here to give you the tools and support you need to navigate safely through working, living and studying successfully at Old Dominion and in Norfolk.
- Here are recommendations on how to keep yourself and your friends safe:
- Familiarize yourself with the locations of emergency phones and call boxes in the buildings and around the campus routes you normally visit and walk. All campus buildings have red telephones that link directly to campus police. Additionally, there are blue emergency call boxes located around campus that also connect directly to campus police.
- Walk on well-lit paths and streets and walk with others, especially at night.
- Use the campus escort service. It is available 5:30 p.m. to 2:30 a.m. daily by calling 683-3477 or using one of the emergency telephones or blue light call boxes. Police officers are available to escort you after-hours.
- Keep doors locked, including the doors to your dorm room, off-campus residence and car. Do not prop open any doors to the residence halls.
- Do not invite strangers into your dorm room or off-campus house. While that person you just met at a party may seem really nice, he or she could have bad intentions.
- Limit your drinking. Too much alcohol impairs your judgment and makes you less aware of your surroundings.
- Do not leave your bicycle, laptop, iPod or other valuables unsecured and do not leave valuables in view in your vehicle.
- Report suspicious activity and situations to campus police. If you are a victim of crime, report it to police immediately.
- Tips from the Sexual Assault Free Environment (S.A.F.E.) Program:
- Go out with a group of friends: Arrive together, check in with each other and leave together.
- Trust your instincts: Don't hesitate to call and ask for help if you're feeling uneasy.
- Practice safe drinking: Drink within your limits and know where your drink came from and where it is at all times.
- Be an active bystander and friend: If you see someone at risk, get involved by asking if she/he needs help or by calling the police.

Solar stocks rise after successful IPO in space
Shares of solar energy companies are rising after a solar energy company's subsidiary surged on its first day of trading. WHAT'S NEW: The shares of SunEdison (SUNE) subsidiary TerraForm (TERP) are surging 36% in early afternoon trading. TerraForm Power opened at $33.26 and was trading near $34 per share at midday, after its initial public offering priced at $25 per share. TerraForm was formed to own and operate assets that generate clean power and the company plans to pay dividends. In a note to investors yesterday, Josh Baribeau, an analyst at Canaccord Genuity, wrote that TerraForm is a Yieldco. Subsidiaries of energy companies that own power plants and projects, Yieldcos typically trade on stock exchanges. Noting that TerraForm's IPO had priced at the high end of its expected range yesterday and was well oversubscribed, Baribeau wrote that this outcome reflects the strong demand for Yieldcos among investors. The Yieldcos provide investors with yield which is in high demand in today's low interest rate environment, the analyst stated. Additionally, as a result of the strong demand for Yieldcos' stocks, they provide their parent companies with "cheap and abundant capital," the analyst stated. SunEdison and TerraForm will grow their combined cash available for distributions at a faster rate than their target of 15% over the next three years, helping SunEdison's stock rise, the analyst stated. He kept a $30 price target and Buy rating on SunEdison. WHAT'S NOTABLE: A number of solar energy companies that own solar projects could form Yieldcos, research firm Trefis wrote in a Forbes column last month. Like Canaccord's Baribeau, Trefis believes that Yieldcos provide their parent companies with a cheap source of funding. Yieldcos also distribute most of their cash through dividends, Trefis stated. The firm named First Solar (FSLR) and SunPower (SPWR) as companies that could launch their own Yieldcos. PRICE ACTION: In early afternoon trading, Terraform jumped 36% to $34 and SunEdison was down 1% to $22.76. Meanwhile, First Solar rose 1.4% to $62.29, SunPower climbed 2.7% to $38.71, JinkoSolar gained 2.8% to $26.75, and Canadian Solar (CSIQ) advanced 3% to $28.71.

Cellar/Tasting Notes Dark red fruit, menthol, spices, licorice and plums meld together in the 2009 Cabernet Sauvignon. Rich, layered and textured, the Cabernet Sauvignon has plenty of vintage 2009 juiciness, but firm, well-integrated tannins provide a gorgeous backbone of structure. The style is bold, juicy and direct,..
Cellar/Tasting Notes "The estate's 2010 Mad Hatter is a great example of this site and the vintage. Cool veins of graphite-infused minerality support a core of dark red and black fruit, mint, licorice, smoke, tobacco and incense. There is push and pull tension of fruit, acidity and minerality that makes the 2010 hugely..
Cellar/Tasting Notes "Although tasty, the 2011 Cabernet Sauvignon Napa is slightly less intense and powerful compared to the 2010. It reveals supple tannins, abundant black fruit and spice notes, and an easy-drinking yet seriously endowed, medium to full-bodied personality. Drink it over the next decade."
Cellar/Tasting Notes "The 2009 Cabernet Sauvignon isn't quite as sexy right now as the Cabernet Franc but it, too, has plenty of stuff going on. Juicy dark berries, cassis, spices, pencil shavings, licorice and mint all take shape in this generous, radiant, totally inviting wine. A dark, authoritative finish rounds..
