It seems our blog was hacked with someone/a bot posting Starbucks ads. Aaron doesn't drink coffee or caffeine in general and I certainly wouldn't go to Starbucks to get what they call 'a coffee'.
I'm not a fan of advertising at the best of times, so I like it even less when it invades something that we use a medium for our writing/interests. Target specific ads are everywhere these days and it makes me nauseous (not literally, that would be too dramatic).
So in keeping with our/my feelings on advertising, please check out these 2 skits by Bill Hicks and David Cross. Have a nice day and sorry if this crap popped up in your 'feed'.

Phaseolus vulgaris
This article may require copy editing for grammar, style, cohesion, tone, or spelling. (September 2012) |
Phaseolus vulgaris | |
A variety of the common bean with flat pods | |

(unranked): | Angiosperms |

(unranked): | Rosids |

Phaseolus vulgaris L. |
Synonyms[1] | |
Phaseolus vulgaris, the common bean, is a herbaceous annual plant, grown worldwide for its edible beans, used both dry and green. The leaf is occasionally used as a leaf vegetable, and the straw is used for fodder.
The common bean is a highly variable species with a long history of cultivation. Botanically, the common bean is classified as a dicotyledon. Beans are legumes, so they acquire their nitrogen through an association with rhizobia: species of nitrogen-fixing bacteria. There are a large number of commercial varieties, classified into bush and pole (running) varieties. Pods contain 4–6 beans, which are smooth, plump, kidney-shaped, and up to 1.5 cm long, ranging widely in color.
The commercial production of beans is well-distributed worldwide, with countries in Asia, Africa, Europe, Oceania, South and North America all among the top bean growers. Brazil and India are the largest producers of dry beans while China produces, by far, the largest quantity of green beans, almost as much as the rest of the top ten growers combined. 23 million tonnes of dry common beans and 17.1 million tonnes of green beans were grown worldwide in 2010. The other major type of bean is the broad bean (Vicia faba).
Beans, squash and maize constitute the "Three Sisters" that provide the foundation of Native American agriculture.
Contents |
The common bean is a highly variable species with a long history. Bush varieties form erect bushes 20–60 centimeters (7.9–24 in) tall, while pole or running varieties form vines 2–3 meters (6 ft 7 in–9 ft 10 in) long. All varieties bear alternate, green or purple leaves, which are divided into three oval, smooth-edged leaflets, each 6–15 centimeters (2.4–5.9 in) long and 3–11 centimeters (1.2–4.3 in) wide. The white, pink, or purple flowers are about 1 cm long, and they give way to pods 8–20 centimeters (3.1–7.9 in) long and 1–1.5 cm wide. These may be green, yellow, black, or purple in color, each containing 4–6 beans. The beans are smooth, plump, kidney-shaped, up to 1.5 cm long, range widely in color, and are often mottled in two or more colors.
Dry beans[edit]
Similar to other beans, the common bean is high in starch, protein and dietary fiber and is an excellent source of iron, potassium, selenium, molybdenum, thiamine, vitamin B6, and folate.
Dry beans will keep indefinitely if stored in a cool, dry place, but as time passes, their nutritive value and flavor degrade and cooking times lengthen. Dried beans are almost always cooked by boiling, often after being soaked for several hours. While the soaking is not strictly necessary, it shortens cooking time and results in more evenly textured beans. In addition, soaking beans removes 5 to 10 percent of the gas-producing sugars that can cause flatulence for some people.[2] The several methods include overnight soaking, and the power soak method, in which beans are boiled for three minutes and then set aside for 2–4 hours. Before cooking, the excess water is drained and discarded. Common beans take longer to cook than most pulses: cooking times vary from one to four hours, but are substantially reduced with pressure cooking.
In Mexico, Central America and South America, the traditional spice to use with beans is epazote, which is also said to aid digestion. In East Asia, a type of seaweed, kombu, is added to beans as they cook for the same purpose. Salt, sugar, and acidic foods such as tomatoes may harden uncooked beans, resulting in seasoned beans at the expense of slightly longer cooking times.
Dry beans may also be bought cooked and canned as refried beans, or whole with water, salt, and sometimes sugar.
Green beans[edit]
The three commonly known types of green beans are: string or runner beans, stringless or French beans (depending on whether the pod has a tough, fibrous "string" running along its length), and 'snap beans, which may be round or have a thin, flat pod that requires less cooking time. Compared to dry beans, they provide less starch and protein and more vitamin A and vitamin C. The green beans are often steamed, boiled, stir-fried, or baked in casseroles.
Shelling beans[edit]
Shell, shelled, or shelling beans are beans removed from their pods before being cooked or dried. Common beans can be used as shell beans, but the term also refers to other species of beans whose pods are not typically eaten, such as lima beans, soybeans, peas, and fava beans. Fresh shell beans are nutritionally similar to dry beans, but are prepared more like a vegetable, often being steamed, fried, or made into soups.
Popping beans[edit]
The nuña is an Andean subspecies, Phaseolus vulgaris subsp. nunas (formerly Phaseolus vulgaris (Nuñas group)), with round, multicolored seeds that resemble pigeon eggs. When cooked on high heat, the bean explodes, exposing the inner part, in the manner of popcorn and other puffed grains.
The toxic compound phytohaemagglutinin, a lectin, is present in many common bean varieties, but is especially concentrated in red kidney beans. White kidney beans contain about a third as much toxin as the red variety; broad beans (Vicia faba) contain 5 to 10% as much as red kidney beans.[3]
Phytohaemagglutinin can be deactivated by boiling beans for ten minutes; the ten minutes at boiling point (100 °C (212 °F)) are sufficient to degrade the toxin, but not to cook the beans. For dry beans, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) also recommends an initial soak of at least 5 hours in water which should then be discarded.[3]
If the beans are cooked at a temperature below boiling (without a preliminary boil), as in a slow cooker, the toxic effect of haemagglutinin is increased: beans cooked at 80 °C (176 °F) are reported to be up to five times as toxic as raw beans.[3] Outbreaks of poisoning have been associated with cooking kidney beans in slow cookers.[3]
The primary symptoms of phytohaemagglutinin poisoning are nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea. Onset is from one to three hours after consumption of improperly prepared beans, and symptoms typically resolve within a few hours.[3] Consumption of as few as four or five raw, soaked kidney beans can cause symptoms.[3]
Beans are high in purines, which are metabolized to uric acid. Uric acid is not a toxin as such, but may promote the development or exacerbation of gout. For this reason, people with gout are often advised to limit their consumption of beans.[4]
Many well-known bean varieties belong to this species, and none of the lists below are in any way exhaustive. Both bush and running (pole) varieties exist. The colors and shapes of pods and seeds vary over a wide range.
Black turtle beans[edit]
The Black turtle bean is a small, shiny variety of common beans (Phaseolus vulgaris), especially popular in Latin American cuisine.
Cranberry and borlotti beans[edit]
Cranberry beans originated in Colombia as the cargamanto. Borlotti or Roman beans are a variety of cranberry bean bred in Italy to have a thicker skin. They are much used in Mediterranean cuisine.
Flageolet beans[edit]
Flageolet beans are often eaten in France. They are small, light green, and kidney shaped. The texture is firm yet creamy if shelled and cooked when fresh but semi-dry.
Kidney beans[edit]
Kidney beans, also known as red beans, are named for their visual resemblance in shape and color to kidneys. Kidney beans are commonly used in chili soup chili con carne and are an integral part of the cuisine in northern regions of India. They are also used in New Orleans and much of southern Louisiana for the classic Monday Creole dish of red beans and rice.
Pea beans[edit]
Pea beans have been recorded in Britain since the 16th century.[5] The seeds are unusual as they are distinctly bicoloured, being red-brown and white. The plants are a typical climbing bean. The beans are either eaten in the pod like French beans or they may be harvested when mature and eaten as other dried beans.[6]
Pink beans[edit]
Pink beans are small, pale pink, oval-shaped beans, and are also known by the Spanish name habichuelas rosadas.[7] The Santa Maria pinquito (Spanglish = pink and small), is commercially grown on the mesas above Santa Maria, California, and is a necessary ingredient in Santa Maria Style BBQ.
Pinto beans[edit]
Pinto beans are named for their mottled skin, and are common across America. They are the most common bean in the United States[8] and northwestern Mexico,[9] and are most often eaten whole in broth or mashed and refried. Either whole or mashed, they are a common filling for burritos. The young pods may also be harvested and cooked as green pinto beans.
White beans[edit]
Navy beans or haricot beans are particularly popular in the United Kingdom and the United States. Other white beans include cannellini, a popular variety in central and southern Italy, which is related to the kidney bean. White beans are the most abundant plant-based source of phosphatidylserine (PS) known.[10]
Yellow beans[edit]
Sinaloa Azufrado, Sulphur, Mayocoba, and Peruano (also called canary) are types of yellow beans.
Peruano beans (also called canary or mayacoba beans) are small, oval, yellow beans about 1/2 inch (1 cm) long with a thin skin. Peruano beans have a creamy texture when cooked. Despite the name (peruvian beans in Spanish), they are native to Mexico. However, yellow beans are uncommon in the United States due to a controversial patent issued in 1999 to John Proctor, who selected and named a strain of yellow bean from seeds he brought back from Mexico. U.S. Patent No. 5,894,079 (the Enola or yellow bean patent) granted POD-NERS, LLC., exclusive right to import and sell yellow beans in the United States from 1999 through 2008, when the patent was rejected after reexamination.[11][12]
In 2010, total world production of dry beans was 23 million metric tons. The area harvested to dry beans was over 30 million hectares.[13] World production of green beans in 2010 was 17.7 million ton, harvested at 15.1 million hectares.[13]
Other uses[edit]
Bean leaves have been used to trap bedbugs in houses.[14] Microscopic hairs (trichomes) on the bean leaves entrap the insects.[14]
From ancient times, beans were used as device in various methods of divination. Fortune-telling using beans is called favomancy.

Have you ever wondered where would be the best place to go out on a Saturday night? Where would have the type of music you like, the kind of people you want to be around, if thereŌĆÖs going to be too crowded or too empty and the exact location of the club in question?
Well, wonder no more people of Buenos Aires: GEOclubbing guide has come to Argentina!┬ĀUsing the Facebook platform, the web page basically takes all the information on the events posted by promoters on Facebook, packing all this data together in one place.
In the words of director Dave Blue: "Every single event listed on the site comes directly from Facebook. All updates made by the promoter, and all RSVPs made by clubbers, are automatically synced between Facebook and GEOclubbing. This requires no time, effort, or cost on the part of event organizers, and allows anyone to get a fast and simple overview of all clubbing events with just a few clicks. In other words, GEOclubbing complements FacebookŌĆÖs ability to answer 'What are my friends doing tonight?' by using the same information to answer 'Show me all Trance events in Amsterdam next weekend'.ŌĆØ
Blue has been in the clubbing scene since 2007, when he started DJing and throwing parties while at university in New Zealand. He says he had ŌĆ£always been kind of a geekŌĆØ, mapping all the clubs around the area where he lived. He had what he calls his ŌĆ£eureka momentŌĆØ in May of last year, when he realised he could use Facebook to upload events from all over the world without having to develop face-to-face relationships with the local nightlife players. After 15 months working in the technical groundwork, the website was finally launched in August of this year.
The user selects one of the five cities in the world that the company is present (Buenos Aires, London, Sydney, Hong Kong and Amsterdam) and then can check the dates to the most popular nightlife events put on by order of people attending it on Facebook. It works even better if you have a profile on Facebook because you can allow the GEO application into your account and see which one of your friends are attending which parties.
ŌĆ£You can of course ask your friends or chat up promoters, which is still a good idea, but I want to know all of the parties, and which are truly hot – not just being hyped by somebody. And I want know this very quickly for any given night so I can focus on enjoying the experience rather than fussing around with my computer,ŌĆØ states Blue.
It also has innovative tools such as a sound (so you can hear what kind of music the DJs on the eventŌĆÖs line up will play) and video (to show you the clubŌĆÖs atmosphere).
A map with all the events that will take place in the city is also available and are marked by dots ŌĆō the bigger the dot, the more people will be attending it.
Keeping this in mind, Blue likes to interfere the least possible on picking which events are worthwhile getting on his nightlife guide, since thereŌĆÖs the online RSVP factor, measuring the popularity of the event. That doesnŌĆÖt mean that he doesnŌĆÖt appreciate the efforts of promoters who are just getting started and donŌĆÖt have much money to invest in parties. ŌĆ£With one of these questionable events a few weeks ago in BA, I actually checked out the Facebook page of the promoter and saw that at one of their previous events they decorated the venue by putting playing cards on the mirrors around the bar. So this nice simple touch showed me that the promoter is actually making an effort, and I'll spend some time to ensure their future parties make it onto GEOclubbing.ŌĆØ
In his opinion, what makes the BA nightlife scene stand out from other cities in the world is by far the great amount of ŌĆ£free agentsŌĆØ (meaning actual people) there are working in promoting the nightlife instead of generic brands or clubs that do their own promotion and advises the clubbers: "Just as you would cling to a good hair stylist, once you find a good public relations in Buenos Aires, make sure that relationship is tight because this is how you get access."
Future plans for GEOclubbing guide are to expand to all global cities, adding Rio de Janeiro and Mar del Plata soon to the list. The company also has plans to promote events in other Latin American metropolis such as S├Żo Paulo, Lima, Santiago, and Bogot├Ī.

Chevrolet confirm their next Sprint Cup car will be the Commodore VF badged as the Chevrolet SS
- May 18, 2012
Chevrolet confirmed what had been rumored for several months: The 2013 Chevrolet model raced in the Sprint Cup Series next year will be called the SS.
The SS will be a V-8 powered, rear-wheel-drive performance sedan.
Although few specific details were released about the new model, Chevrolet said: "SS will be a derivative of the award-winning global rear-wheel-drive architecture that spawns performance vehicles like Chevrolet Camaro and Holden's upcoming VF Commodore."
That would suggest the new SS would be similar to the now-defunct Pontiac G8 high-performance sedan, which was also Holden-based.
You can catch every race of the NASCAR Sprint Cup LIVE and in stunning HD on SPEED.
The Pontiac brand, of course, was axed by General Motors when it went through its bankruptcy in 2009. The G8 was critically well received, but ultimately doomed by GM's financial woes.
Chevrolet said the street version of the Chevrolet SS will be badged as a 2014 model and will go on sale in late 2013. It will be the first rear-wheel-drive Chevrolet sedan sold in the United States for 17 years.
The SS name, which is short for Super Sport, debuted in 1957 on a prototype Corvette race car and first went into production with the 1961 Chevrolet Impala SS.
"As a passionate race fan and performance enthusiast, I am thrilled that Chevrolet will deliver a true rear-wheel-drive NASCAR racecar in the SS that is closely linked to the performance sedan that will be available for sale," said Mark Reuss, president of GM North America.
"The Chevrolet SS is a great example of how GM is able to leverage its global product portfolio to deliver a unique performance experience that extends beyond the track. I am personally looking forward to driving it."
Chevrolet did not release any specifications about the new model — no information yet on which engine it will carry, how many horsepower it will have, pricing, etc. Presumably those details will become available as the car gets closer to production.
The only image released for the new model was one heavily camouflaged photo taken at the Sprint Cup test at Homestead-Miami Speedway earlier this year.
Next year in NASCAR, the Sprint Cup Series will race the second generation of what was known as the "Car of Tomorrow" when it was introduced in 2007. The 2013 cars for all four manufacturers will have a much closer resemblance to the production cars they are based on.
Ford will race a radically redesigned version of its Fusion next year, while Dodge will campaign a Charger based on that model's 2012 makeover. Both those models have been introduced publicly already. Toyota is scheduled to unveil its 2013 Sprint Cup Camry May 22 at TRD, U.S.A. in Salisbury, N.C.
"You know, it's going to be a whole lot of work and expense, but I think NASCAR has done a good job with all of the cars," team owner Rick Hendrick said.
"They have had them in the wind tunnel and I guess NASCAR is getting pretty comfortable with the parity between all the brands, because we are making some slight changes but we are locking in and feeling good about the car. I think it's going to be great for the fans. We are going to have a production car that looks just like it."
The component, Hendrick said, is the improved connection between the race cars and the production cars.
"We are back to seeing in the showrooms what we are racing on the racetrack and the fans have said they want that and the manufacturers want it, and actually the teams want it," he said.
"So just getting through the changeover is going to be the big deal, but, you know, the chassis are the same, so it's just a bunch of — we are going to be working a lot of midnight hours to get all of the bodies done.
"It's always a chore when you go through it and it's a big expense. At the end of the day, it's going to be better for the sport."

They've done a great job at shading the template lol. That picture was taken at the start of the year, I think it's Kasey Khane at Homestead. Looking good Chevy, glad they never called it the Commodore though. Let us hope this opens the door for Chevy in the V8 Supercar series shortly.
Christopher W Herbert of New Zealand says May 18, 2012 at 3:58 PM
With the front aero-package of this proposed 2013 Chevrolet Sprint Cup NASCAR matching close to what has been in use with Australia's V8 Supercars for many years by now. The downforce and aerodynamic advantages of certain manufactures in the sport. Might become a clash over parity with the introduction of the new cars once they hit the track. However what is good on a road course may not necessarily have the appropiate effect on an Oval. But it could play a big part in continued domination of Chevrolet in NASCAR circles.
Chris of Queensland says May 18, 2012 at 4:08 PM
Mjolnir, I doubt it will open the door for chevrolet into the V8 supercars, as it clearly states at the start of the article, the new chevy Nascar will be the upcoming Commodore VF.

Adam of Perth says May 19, 2012 at 4:00 PM
Great, more Bogans to now take off their Holden badges and replace them with Chev ones...Whilst placing an "Aussie Pride" sticker on the back. The hypocrisy is amusing.
Leeroy of Perth says June 08, 2012 at 11:35 AM
Why would we need Chevy in V8 Supercars when we already have Holden?? That's just plain stupid...

Whole Red Snapper with Ponzu Recipe
A signature dish of Japanese cuisine
Salt-grilled whole red snapper with Ponzu, simple and elegant, is a signature dish of Japanese cuisine. Grilling the fish with the bones intact adds flavor, succulence and juiciness to the flesh. If you prefer, you can cut off the head, but we love its tender parts, including the cheek and the insides. You can also use this grilling technique with whole sea bass, bronzini, sea bream, porgy, small grouper, dorade (also called Mediterranean sea bream) or other white fleshed fish.
- Lightly season the fish with salt all over, including the cavities. Let the fish rest for 30 minutes at room temperature.
- Wipe off moisture that accumulates on the surface of the fish with paper towels.
- Cut a 1/2-inch-deep slit lengthwise along the centerline of each fish, from head to tail. Do this on both sides; the cuts will help the fish cook faster and make it easier to flake off the grilled flesh.
- To make the dipping sauce, divide the momiji oroshi and scallions between the 4 bowls of ponzu; set aside.
- Preheat a grill to medium-hot. Brush the cooking grate clean and oil it well.
- Grill the fish about 5 minutes per side. Flip the snappers with care—gently turn them with a fish spatula so they don't break apart. When the fish are ready, you'll see juice bubbling from the back, and if you peek inside the cavity, you'll see that the spine and flesh near it will have turned white.
- Serve the fish immediately, accompanied by the ponzu dipping sauce.
Ponzu, Makes about 1 1/2 cups
- Add the sake and mirin to a small saucepan and bring to a boil over high heat. Boil for 1 minute, remove from heat, and let the liquid come to room temperature.
- In a bowl, stir together the soy sauce, citrus juice, vinegar, the 1/4 cup water, the sake mixture, kombu, and bonito flakes. Cover loosely with plastic wrap and let the mixture steep in the refrigerator for 12 hours, or overnight.
- Strain the ponzu through a cheesecloth or fine sieve; gently squeeze to press out the liquid. The ponzu will keep in the refrigerator for 2 weeks.

Wivenhoe scouts win £5k grant
5:35pm Monday 15th October 2012 in News By Will Lodge
A SCOUT group in Wivenhoe is celebrating after winning thousands of pounds to spend towards the costs of renovating the building they have used for over five decades.
The Wivenhoe Scout & Guide Association has been handed £5,000 by Lloyds Banking Group Community Fund as they look to raise £27,000 to renovate their building behind the council offices in the High Street, which has been the home of the group since 1964.
They beat off stiff competition from other community groups in the region to land the prize after polling 31 per cent in an online vote.

Look for Kevin Kolb being traded to Arizona for Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie and a draft pick by the end of the week.
via Twitter
Rodgers-Cromartie AND and a draft pick? Are they crazy?
DRC has a fair amount of hype behind him. That' being said, he's still a starting CB. When Kolb played he looked like starting material. Granted, it can't be fairly labeled as concrete, but rare is the trade Starting QB for Starting CB, straight up. Philly is the seller here. I think a pick is fair, especially if it's a lower-round pick.
Kolb is stilll mostly unknown, he's looked good and not so good. There is no conclusive evidence one way or the other. I don't have so much a problem w/the player+pick, but the 2nd is too high. Your getting PHILLY's backup qb, he's not their starter; it's not worth both.
I stated in another thread; I don't know why I'm suprised by this. They drafted Lienhart, and then traded for Derrick Anderson...this team always finds a way to F it up. To much money for an unknown, and too much in trade value. It's not like that team is stocked full of D talent, why give up your best D player and a 2nd for another teams backup qb? Ecspecially when there are really no other teams out there bidding against you?
Yeah, the second was a bit pricey, but Eagles were sellers, and AZ wants a young starting QB. The reason they hung onto Leinert for so long.
And I disagree with the notion Kolb is a back-up. If Vick hadn't caught on fire and became such a media sensation, I'm fairly certain Kolb would have been the starter for the season. Seems they played at equal levels when they were being switched in and out during Vick's injury periods.
Doesn't change the fact that he was not going to be the starter in Philly, therefore the backup.
But he was, remember?
What he was and is are two different things. Rex Grossman WAS a starter, and became a backup....think we could have got a top tier talent and a 2nd rounder for him?

How will the Lakers fill out the rest of their bench?
It's possible the answer lies with Devin Ebanks, Jodie Meeks or both.
Whoever it is, the Lakers hope they can find a backcourt player who could reduce Kobe Bryant's minutes and provide needed outside shooting. Meeks, a Philadelphia 76ers shooting guard, could fill that description since the 25-year-old shot in the high 30% range in the past two seasons. Meeks' agent, David Bauman, said Meeks is on the Lakers' radar and that of "four or five" other unspecified teams. But Bauman also added Meeks' interest with the Lakers could hinge on a significant variable.
"We're happy to talk, but we're not talking minimum for a guy like Jodie," Bauman told The Times in a phone interview on Monday. "He'll get more than the minimum wherever he signs."

Here's a quick Halloween card I made recently. Would you believe this was a $1 stamp I found at a big box store last year? This was the first time I used it, and used some A Muse paper to paper piece it for a bit more interest. I also added some Martha Stewart black glitter and diamond glaze on the eye.
A Making Memories star button from last year finished it off. Today was SOOO fun- we had the A Muse Addicts gathering at The Paper Tree. Of course, I forgot my camera, but much fun was had. Heather even stopped by for a bit to visit -yay!
We finished out the day by going to an outdoor showing of It's a Great Pumpkin Charlie Brown on a huge inflatable movie screen – so fun!

My Profile
Skip the Line: Vatican Museums, Sistine Chapel and St Peter's Basilica Half-Day Walking Tour
Rome, Italy
My Rating
Excellent value for money. Our guide led us through the different venues highlighting historic artifacts; explaining the history of the buildings, artwork, statues and other items of beauty. She was extremely knowledgeable and delivered a very articulate tour. The pace was perfect allowing everyone time to absorb the information and reflect on item(s) being reviewed. Without our guide we would have spent a great deal of wasted time trying to understand what the Sistine Chapel scenes depicted and would certainly have run out of time- possibly not getting to St Peter's Basilica which was outstanding. I would highly rate our guide and recommend that any visitor to Rome who wants to visit the Vatican Museums, Sistine Chapel and St. Peter's Basilica within half a day, should definitely book a tour guide through Viator. Many thanks.

Small is the new big — or at least that's what Louis Vuitton tells us. The French house recruited three street style notables and cast them in an enchanting video prove it. Louis Vuitton's "Small is Beautiful!" short film stars Elin Kling, Hanneli Mustaparta, and Miroslava Duma and features the fashion darlings frolicking around the streets of Paris, looking chic in tiny LV bags. All the pretty fuss is a creative way of calling attention to the brand's new mini icons collection. Watch the video below.

Walmart to begin direct iPhone 5 sales with no-contract Straight Talk prepaid plans
Big box retailer Walmart announced on Tuesday that it will be selling Apple's iPhone 4 and iPhone 5 on Jan. 11, with no-contract plans furnished by cell provider Straight Talk Wireless priced at $45 per month for unlimited talk, text and data.While the $45 flat rate pricing is enticing, Walmart's handset selection will be limited to the 16GB iPhone 5 and 8GB iPhone 4, which are priced at $649 and $449, respectively.
"We believe customers shouldn't have to choose between saving money and having the latest technology," said Seong Ohm, senior vice president of entertainment for Walmart. "Now customers can have the coveted iPhone with unlimited talk, text and data without a contract for $70 a month thanks to our exclusive Straight Talk plan and industry first financing offer."
Ohm is referring to a financing program aimed at making the high up front hardware cost somewhat digestible. The program, which requires a Walmart Credit Card, allows customers to pay off their iPhones for $25 a month on top of the $45 unlimited prepaid plan.
In addition to the $45 no contract plan, Straight Talk also has a $60 option that adds unlimited international calling to more than 1,000 areas in Mexico, Canada, India and other countries.
The program will roll out this Friday at over 2,000 Walmart locations across the U.S. as well as the company's online store.
