Really tempted to sell my ARL44. I have no urge to play in it at all and I could use the money for some better tanks I think.

Grille banzai chargin' up yo butts.
It's a Tier 6, the BDG G1B is the Tier 5.
The ARL-44 has huge fucking slab sides and the tracks stick out hilariously far, on more than one occasion I've been mercilessly raped when rounding corners because they blow my track off then just plink away at the exposed sides while my turret in stuck behind the building. High silhouette doesn't help either, and the 90mm lacks punch. Maybe thats because I'm so used to the massive damage of the Russian 122s and BL-10. I dunno. After 50 battles my win ratio is 52%, 42 kills, and I honestly have no urge to play it or even go further up the French heavy line.
Sold it, bought a VK(DB) instead, a tank I know I'll enjoy.

Never went up the French heavy-line but 90mm in t6 is not uncommon. Just look at the M6 heavy (90mm albeit an awesome one), m36/m18 has 90mm. German t6s got 88mm as their "top" gun. Russians used to have the kv3 with the 122 but that's t7 now making the 107/152mm their main t6 guns. Except on the KV1-s that has the Standard Issue Bentbarrel 122mm.
From the outside it looks like a pretty good tank out in the open, its problems are shared by many of the other T6 HTs (Shoebox w/ 90mm M6 representing).

I remember when I was low tiered and used to fight KV's I used to fear them. Now they are lunch even if im in a T50. I think I need to drive a tank before I fully understand how to kill it.
Just how many credits does the Type 59 spew out? TBH i don't know if I should pick one up from the store while it's there, or use the same amount of dollarbucks on credits/gold combo.

On standard account 40-50k on standard account easy a game usually more though. For me i tend to make more in it than my T34 and its more fun to drive.
The Armor since a couple patches ago isn't as bouncy and the matchmaking is more or less a standard Tier 8 so no special pwnmobile matchmaking like it used to be.
I'm finding its averaging about 70k or so for a meh match, and upwards of 100 for a good one. It seems to shit out far more credits then my Lowe does. I feel thats because every one knows where too shoot the lowe at this point, Its also a much bigger target & its shitty mobility means that if you find your self in a fucked position your done for. The type on the other hand bounces anything that comes from the front, the low profile means some tanks cant aim low enough to hit a penetratable surface on the turret if your hugging them, & its mobile enough to bug out if you can feel the heat around the corner. I also prefer the medium play style TBH
In other news I'm kinda digging the new KV-1, Played a few rounds with the 85mm, it pack a pretty nice punch, but seems a lil bit inaccurate, but this could be due to me having an 80% crew because fuck having my uber 2 perk crew in the kv-1. All in all seems pretty decent, and well balanced for tier 5. I'm thinking about trying the 57mm for a few rounds, I fell in love with that gun on the T-34 so it may be pretty fun on this thing. Haven't played the T-150 yet, but I give it whirl before I decide to keep it or chuck it.
Maybe I suck more than these guys but premium account I do 75k for a two kill win and 35k for a loss
After 15 battles in the AMX 13 90 I have a 7% victory rate and a 0% survival rate.
Love the tank though. I think I finally figured out that it's not actually a scout like the 13 75, but an aggressive flanker. Now to test this theory.
Very tempted to get a Type... Still very expensive for just one tank, but I don't own a premium and I'd imagine it would make getting those credits a lot easier.
Fucking WG and their free2suck model
its pretty cheap for a high end gold tank and fun to drive. Buy it now while its cheap to buy the mods imo. I've only had a t34 and valentine other than that and hated them both.
anything 12t up is not a scout nor head on tank. If their gun is pointing at you your doing it wrong. You should be with a brawler nipping round the back of houses and flanking them and using the brawler as mobile cover.Originally Posted by Dirk Magnum

Sold T-50-2 to make space for 13 90. Died without firing a shot. Team better not win.
edit: Phew didnt. I suck in AMX tanks, but they're still the most fun ones I have.

And i'm saying it's still a huge weakspot against tier X or IX enemies that you fight a ton more of now since it got bumped a tier. I bounce more shots on my ass in that tank than I do from the front. Sure you can have some lucky bounces on your sides or front corners, but it's really finicky and dice-roll based. There's no way to not get reliably fucked over from the front against a good enemy. An extra 600 hp doesn't seem a huge amount when the big high tier guns can eat that in one good shot.
So Type59 basically racks up credits like no tomorrow. Good to know. Maybe I will get one then

Daniel Rebour Art/Greeting CardsThis series of four images represents the joining of two masters: Daniel Rebour and Gianni Basso. During cycling's post World War II Golden Era, Daniel Rebour captured, in exacting detail, the essence of the bicycle and its components. His ability as a technical artist was unmatched. Each issue of his magazine Le Cycle brought fresh images to his readers. Sadly, the newsprint quality of the paper used at Le Cycle hardly did the artist's work justice.Fortunately, we were able to locate and acquire a small handful of the original printing plates in France. Despite their age, the plates were in near perfect condition. The plates were then taken to famed Italian printmaster Gianni Basso. Using a 125 year old printing press, each card was individually hand printed by Gianni Basso in his shop in Venice, Italy on paper specifically created for custom printing. In addition to being top shelf note cards, these look fabulous framed on the wall! |

About Me Parent of Two or More Children
Comments about North American Bear Tooth Fairy Doll:
Adorable concept, never looked at the measurments but was pleasantly? surprised at how small it was, I guess how big does it really need to be? Tooth goes in, child sets it out or places under a pillow and then it gets stored away until the next tooth falls out. Haven't had the opportunity to try it out yet so didn't showed my son but he likes pirates so I know it will be a hit when the time comes.

I have a girl and a boy, so I have a fairy and a pirate. They are excited to use them (and I'm excited to not be searching under the pillow for the tooth!) I see some complaints about price. They are a bit pricey, but I think they are adorable!

I go the ballerina for my daughter and my son the pirate. We haven't used them yet. I intend to surprise my kids when they loose their first tooth. They are really cute and small. My only complaint is they are too pricey for what you get. But I know the smiles on my kids will make it better. I would recommend them though.

About Me Parent of a 7-year-old
Before my daughter lost her first tooth, I always wondered how I was going to deal with the whole "under the pillow" thing. This doll solves that problem perfectly. We hang it on the door knob of her room, the tooth in the doll's little tulle bag, and the tooth fairy comes and leaves a folded up dollar in it's stead. My daughter is super excited about the doll; I keep it tucked away and it's not played with so it's special just for this purpose. I plan on giving the doll to my niece once my daughter is done losing teeth. It's both a great idea and well executed.

About Me Grandparent
The tooth fairy dolls are very cute, easy for kids to use and extremely easy for parents - no rooting around beneath the pillow for a miniscule tooth. The dolls, however, are quite small. I did not find this to be a problem, though, as they are about the same size as a tooth fairy pillow. Really adorable and my grandkids just love them!
Tooth fell out
By Isis
from PA
Cute and my son likes it....but the first use he asked the tooth fairy if he could keep his tooth, but in the morning the tooth was gone! It fell out of the pouch at night! We did find the tooth. Please be careful, there is a space big enough for the teeth to fall out. But a cute product.
Great solution for kid's who wake easily

About Me Homeschool mom of 2, Parent of Two or More Children
I had been looking for a tooth fairy "pillow" option for my son, but everything seems to be made for girls. This pirate "pillow" is a great option. He was so excited when it arrived! He was even more excited to tell me that he has a lose tooth (this will be his 6th missing tooth and he just turned 6 yrs. old!).

I thought that the pirate would be bigger. The treasure box doesn't close very well and I am afraid that the little teeth will fall out.

COMMERCE, Texas – Texas A&M University-Commerce head women's basketball coach Nicole Anderson today announced the hiring of Anthony Portley as the Lions' assistant basketball coach. Portley will handle player development as well as serving as the recruiting and travel coordinator and camp director.
"Anthony Portley has a wealth of knowledge and experience in the coaching profession," said coach Anderson. "His familiarity with the Lone Star Conference as well as the local communities will significantly help our program achieve. He has an outstanding ability to recruit and develop players. I am thrilled to have Anthony join the women's basketball program".
A Greenville native, Portley brings nearly 20 years of coaching experience as both an assistant and head coach. He most recently served as the head women's basketball coach at Texas College in Tyler from 2007-09. Prior to his time in Tyler, Portley was the assistant basketball coach at Kimball High School in Dallas.
Portley's third stint as a head coach came at Saint Paul's College in Lawrenceville, Virginia from 2002-2005 as he led the Tigers to a fourth-place finish in the conference after being picked to finish last. Saint Paul's also ranked third in the nation in three-pointers made while the team experienced success in the classroom, compiling a team GPA of 3.299.
Prior to his time in Lawrenceville, Portley spent two seasons as the assistant basketball coach at Winston-Salem State University in North Carolina (2000-02) as he helped lead the Lady Rams to their first conference tournament finals in 10 years with a winning scoring margin of 24.6 points per game. Portley also spent two seasons at Hampton University in Hampton, Virginia (1997-99) as the Lady Pirates captured the first Division I conference championship in school history.
Portley spent the 1996-97 season as the head coach at Western Texas College in Snyder after spending two seasons as an assistant coach at Lone Star Conference rival West Texas A&M from 1994-96. While working with the Lady Buffs, he helped the team to a 53-8 record and a pair of LSC Championships as well as two NCAA Division II regional appearances.
He began his coaching career at Ranger College, serving as the head coach from two seasons from 1992-94. While there, Portley led the Rangers to the National Junior College regional tournament, finishing second in the Coach of the Year voting.
Portley graduated from Abilene Christian University in 1990, earning a dual degree in kinesiology and mathematics. He is also a 1985 graduate of Greenville High School and has spent the past three years as the President and CEO of D.A.B.B. Investments in Plano while also remaining active coaching AAU club basketball teams.

37.485833 -122.234306Horrible!!!. If you choose to go to MT, Do Not let Brandon tattoo you. He does not take what you say into consideration about how you want YOUR tattoo to look like; and just does whatever he wants; he also gives you a rude look if you tell him otherwise. And the owner is really rude! He has all these apprentices around him while HE is tattooing, but when one person wants to watch their friend get a tattoo he flips out like a little B!tch
You get what you pay for. Me and my friend got matching stars and we came here even though we wanted to go somewhere else. We figured who could mess up something as simple as a few stars... My stars came out ok, but my friend's stars weren't straight and are already fading after only a few months. Another friend got a tattoo from here a little while ago and got stuck with one of their apprentices who looks like he's 12 years old. My friend was not impressed to say the least. For girls who like to bring along friends, don't bother, the owner is super strict about not letting anyone behind the tattoo wall. I'd say save your money and go to a shop that has more than just ONE experienced artist.
Amazing Work. Matt is a great guy. I went into his shop because I was referred by a friend. I was a bit hesitant bc my last tatt came out bad from someone referring me to someone. He was a very friendly guy when I first met him, and still to this day is a great person. His art work is excellent with great detail and without the lumps that inexperienced tatt artists do. My tattoo has come out very smooth, great shading. I plan to get my second tattoo from him this upcoming week. His techniques are supurb! I have also referred many of my family and few friends to his shop. Thanks for the great ink!!
Amazing friendly artist who you want t always have around. I walked in to MT Tattoo when they were first opening up and I was greated by Matt instantly. He stood up and shook my hand and I was impressed by how friendly he was. I told him I just gotten a tattoo done down the street and he asked if he could check it out. I asked him how his pricing was and he said he doesn't price by the hour but by the work itself. I liked this method a lot better. After getting my first tattoo done with Matt I then realized why he doesn't price by the hour - the man loves to talk. It feels very comforting talking to him and holding a real conversation as if you two are really friends. He is very funny and eventually his staff comes towards him and observes his work and we all just have one big conversation. I loved the work he has done so far and I plan on going back for more and more in the future. I definately recommend MT Tattoo and any of his artist. Matt takes care of his clients and everyone will leave that shop happy.

MEA[SA]'s Social & Off Topic Discussion Thread
Posted 15 September 2010 - 12:07 PM
Just thought i'd start a thread to get an idea of where people are at with their builds and what's the go? I know leading up to AAS we were all over the build threads but things have dropped back abit and just curious to see where people are at and what they're working on.
I'll start with myself and P.Siddy:
Most of you remember the spectacular sendoff we gave our 9915's at Adelaide Autosalon,
Obviously at AAS one of the woofers was totally gone and we took him apart - Sam made a huge effort of reattaching the spider on the day but it was only ever going to hold up for so long.
Upon taking the car home we found that the other woofer also had a serious case of coil-rub and was on its last legs.
Regardless we decided to push on and temp install it in Sam's laser for abit of SPL at the Marvey comp.
The day before the comp it was doing 149's in testing, however upong firing it up at Marveys Sam experienced some pretty major failure and decided to call it a day after the first burp to avoid any damage to the amp.
Since then we've given Siddy a break (literally?) in order to recoup the finances and get recoils going.
I am pleased to say that AMG have come to the rescue with some recones and Siddy will be burping again in the coming few weeks.
They had some regular 9515 recones available in stock and have sent them over to get us going while we get the box tuned and setup properly. I think our plan is to get the car burping again so we can get the box right, then look at sezzy new recones maybe later down the track.
Personally i'm also keen to triple up all the runs between the batteries on the bank now that we're happy with the arrangement - got plenty of Knu cable left over so there's no reason why not.
There you have it guys - that's the update on Siddy, other than that i've taken some time to work on my garden and catch up with the rest of the Team SS family.

And these wire cutters (soo much easier for 0 gauge)
And I have in transit a new metering system, capable of 50-186Db and 3-30000Hz. And is supposed be as accurate as a TL and within .1Db. When I receive it I will write up a review and let people know where its available from. May still be 3 weeks or more in transit though
Posted 15 September 2010 - 03:22 PM
I'm super-curious about this meter, if you want, when it arrives you can come around and meter a couple of cars so we can do a proper back to back test with the TL... could be a bargain buy for some of the guys getting interested in testing at home without the huge cost of a TL

Hmmn okay Ill have a look thanks.
Yeah it could end up being a great cheaper alternative, and honestly as long as it gives consistent results it should be great for testing on the cheap
I will let everyone know when It arrives, we can organise a meet sometime. See what she can do
Posted 15 September 2010 - 03:50 PM
I like the idea of another "show n tell" meet where we all bring our latest little developments along like we did last time at the Brighton meet.
Posted 15 September 2010 - 05:59 PM
Also apparently as the sensor just outputs voltage you can read the voltage with an accurate multimeter and convert the voltage to Db... Useful if you only have access to the small sensor and a multimeter.
The sensor itself looks exactly like the TL sensor, except the suction caps arnt either side of the mic they are mounted on the side of the device so the mic ends up 90degrees to the window.
And its supposed to be N.I.S.T calibrated like the Termpro/lab
It is also supplied with a calibration sheet.
Thats basically all I know lol, ill find out more when it arrives haha

otherwise you can use a multimeter and a chart or small program on the computer to work out the Db

Doug, if your after some crimps give a couple of local places a ring, these were recommended to me through uni for decent prices:

- Noremak Industries

I would eventually like to do more work on the boot spoiler lip, it's in better shape than it's ever been, the potential is still there so I have to keep at it.
I got all my parts for the RCA group builds yesterday so that's going to suck up a bit of time, but I have a new supplier and I can now get a whole lot more car and electronic stuff at trade prices, so that will be handy for all SA members. 15" subs under $100? Who said that?
I am also looking forward to finishing my home theatre system, I have speakers that are partially finished, I will add some photos to my build log as I go.
Finally, among a few installs I am doing for others, I am going to be building a few 4th order boxes and experiment with smaller drivers, it may turn into a testing setup for crazy 8s. The Beep Beep is getting an SQ install which has been planned for a while now, and there are some other special cars I'm going to be doing special installs on, so keep an eye on build logs.
DOUGEE - I will have a look at suppliers tonight for lugs. I might be keen on going halvesies on a box of 50.

Now the price - $2 each provided we order a box of 100. I already have dibs on 40 lugs so that leaves us with 60 to split between the rest of y'all.
Who wants in and how many do you want? i prefer to take payment with your order as you can imagine a box of 100 will come out to $200, and i don't exactly wanna foot the bill myself when i only need less than half of that.
PM me if you want any, first in best dressed - soon as the order tallies up to 100+ lugs i will get the box and let you guys know they're ready to pick up.

When i'm crimping a 70mm lug with 0ga, i normally use a 50mm die up top and a 70mm die on the bottom, crimps perfectly every time.

They each have their own story to tell and range in time from Temple Israel's Chapel windows (circa 1904) to those designed for Congregation Tifereth Israel and Beth Jacob in the 1980s. Temple Israel Temple Israel's Chapel appears to house the oldest stained glass in the Jewish Community. They were removed from the sanctuary of the old Bryden Road Temple and installed in the new Temple in the late 1950s. These works of art were imported from Belgium and designed by the late artist Gottfried Werner. The themes ofthe windows are from Old Testament sto ries: "David the Shepherd;" "Miriam, Ziporah and Ger- shon;" "Moses on Mt. Sinai;" "Aaron, Joshua and Amram;" "Samuel and Eli, the High Priest;" "Isaac's Blessing of Jacob;" "Noah's Sacrifice;" "Shem, Ham and Japheth," and "The Wives of Shem, Ham and Japheth." Sylvia Dillon, a Temple Israel tour guide for over 30 years, said whenever other artists see the old windows, they get very excited, particularly about the technique used. "They just don't do them like that anymore," she added. Created in 1959, the two stained glass windows on either side ofthe bimah tn Temple Israel's main sanctuary were designed by New York artist Sam Wiener, Jr. The subjects depicted are "Moses and the Burning Bush" and "Moses Brings Forth Water from the Rocks" —- thus the two themes of fire and water. Agudas Achim Synagogue The bimah windows at Agudas Achim were designed by the artist, AmEn. Created in 1977, they represent Jacob's prophetic vision for the future destinies of his children — referred to as the 12 Tribes of Israel. In the absence of any document by AmEn explaining his artistic creation, Dorothy Rubenstein, wife of Rabbi Emeritus Samuel Rubenstein, has interpreted the meanings ofthe windows and their symbols based on the Book of Genesis 49:1-28 and the Book of Deuteronomy 33:6-27 — that is, the blessings by Jacob and later on Moses. The over-all theme of AmEn's creations presents the bright yellow sun surrounding and encompassing the windows. And like the flaming sun, the windows surround and encompass the Ark which houses the Torah. The Torah, like the bright sun, is the light which gives inspiration, un derstanding and a way of life for the people of Israel, Dr. Rubenstein explained. Interspersed throughout the windows are the symbols of the 12 tribes, including the bird — flying upward reaching for peace; the shepherd and sheep — the children of Jacob were shepherds; the Torah — representing study or learning, and light — representing understanding. The 12 window panes are named Reuben, Zebulun, Levi, Judah, Simeon, Isaachar, Dan, Gad, Asher, Naftali, Joseph and Benjamin. Dr. Rubenstein said that AmEn, in creating the windows, didn't follow the biblical text, but rather did it his way to reflect his thoughts. "That is the privilege of an see WINDOWS pg 24 i^__S - ^■^Yfc*.

The Best of the Best
Selection A
One more time we would like to call upon your help in regards to the Rapha-FOCUS team. Over the course of this past season we asked for your help in getting us photos of our boys as they traversed the continent racing some of the best Cyclocross races that the United States has to offer. We were blown away by the support that we received in this venture and I would like to personally Thank You for all your help. However, there is still one bit of business that needs to wrap up before we can finally say that the US Cross season is over (but is it really ever over?) Which, in your opinion was the best of the best? You know the drill, vote in the comments section. Click through to see the rest of the winners and remember to place your vote in the comments section.
It should be noted that the season is far from over for these two. Chris will turn his focus (and his new Boardman Bike) to the road and his campaign with the UnitedHealthcare Pro Cycling Team. He will take to the road with the Tour of Langkawi at the end of the month.

President Barack Obama jokes around with a preschooler at College Heights Early Childhood Learning Center in Decatur, Ga., on Thursday.
Raising hopes among parents who want preschool for all, Obama on Thursday rolled out a plan to vastly expand government-funded early childhood education while keeping the price tag a secret.
Republicans, wary of high costs and questionable outcomes, made clear they have no intention of signing a blank check.
The White House offered the first details about Obama's plan Thursday, describing it as a "continuum of high-quality early learning for a child, beginning at birth and continuing to age 5." The government would fund public preschool for any 4-year-old whose family income is 200 percent or less of the federal poverty level — a more generous threshold than the current Head Start program, which generally serves kids from families below 130 percent of the poverty line. All 50 states and the federal government would chip in.

Published November 1, 2009. From Cook's Illustrated.
Frozen peas have already been blanched, so the key to a good frozen pea recipe is to avoid overcooking and to create inspired dishes that don't interfere with their convenience. For our frozen pea recipe, we found that just five minutes of simmering was all that was needed to produce bright, tender green peas. Switching from a saucepan to a skillet allowed the peas to heat more quickly and evenly over the larger surface.
Do not thaw the peas before cooking. Regular frozen peas can be used in place of baby peas; increase the cooking time in step 2 by 1 to 2 minutes. Add the lemon juice right before serving, otherwise the peas will turn brown.
Dear Friend,
These days, it's pretty easy to get free recipes on the Internet. I'm sure a search for "roast chicken recipe" will turn up thousands and thousands. But, as with so much on the web, you should tread lightly if you don't know the source.
In America's Test Kitchen, our motto is, "Recipes that Work," and our mission is to be your trusted source for recipes that work every time you use them. Our test cooks spend their days obsessively testing recipes until they offer consistently great results. As we like to say here, "We make the mistakes so you don't have to."
CooksIllustrated.com is the only place you can find not only 20 years' worth of our foolproof recipes, but also objective ratings of cookware, and blind taste tests for hundreds of everyday supermarket ingredients (hey, without the proper ingredients and equipment you can still run into problems — no matter how good the recipe).
Let me make a simple, no-nonsense offer. Try out our website FREE for a 14-Day, No-Hassle Trial Offer. I'm pretty confident that CooksIllustrated.com will quickly become an invaluable resource for everything from quick, weeknight suppers to huge, holiday feasts for family and friends.

The top news stories of November 2012 to this point are:
- President Obama's re-election.
- David Petraeus sending a message to men everywhere (Don't cheat; if the head of the CIA can't get away with it, what makes you think you can?).
- Hostess is going out of business.
For Massachusetts pot smokers who supported Question 3, this has to be a huge and ill-timed blow to their upcoming munchies; a cloud with no silver lining.
I don't even remember the last time I ate a Twinkie. I'm no health food nut, but I gave up processed cake-like treats long ago, and haven't had a craving since.
But, back in the day, I was a confectionery connoisseur, consuming more than my fare share of treats that came packaged with crinkly plastic packaging and thin cardboard.
Some are better than others.
Twinkies are actually horrible. They don't have much taste. They smell better than they taste. You can actually feel your teeth rotting as you chew them. While most foods break down in your mouth as you chew, Twinkies just eventually dissolve, which could have something to do with their being 99.99999% processed sugar.
In the ealy '80s, I had a brief daliance with Suzy Q's. I remember their being so sugary that as I chewed, I could actually feel the grains of sugar in the frosting crunching between my teeth. There was more substance to Suzy Q's than Twinkies, and they actually tasted like something.
I ate Devil Dogs, though, looking back, I'm not quite sure why. The chocolate cake was chocolate in name only. They tasted like cardboard, and I had to drink about a gallon of milk just to get it down.
The Drake's Duck was always up in the corner of the box, and I remember wondering why anyone would want to eat anything baked by a duck. Not that it stopped me.
For me, the Hostess Cupcake reigned supreme. The cake - delicate and chocolatey. The filling - delicious, and never too much, but just enough. And the frosting - oh, that frosting. Sometimes I'd peel it off, and eat the rest of the cake before saving the best for last.
I'd try to take tiny bites of the cupcakes, making them last as long as I could. That would usually last for about three bites.
I'd sometimes try to have just one in the twin-pack and save the other for later. That rarely worked. As the oldest of five kids in a house, tasty treats didn't last long, and odds of cupcake number two still being available later were slim to none.
We outgrow many things in life. I suppose I just outgrew these nutrion-free, fat-producing mounds of deliciousness. I met the news of Hostess going out of business with indifference. I just feel for the people losing their jobs more than anything else.
But it makes me wonder, will I outgrow things I enjoy now? In 20 years, will I look back and say, "Ah, I remember those days when I so enjoyed a pint of Guinness. I guess I just outgrew it."
I don't see that happening ever, ever in a billion years or 100 billion pints (whatever comes first), but stranger things have happened. I can't think of any off the top of my head, but I'm sure there's something.
So, I raise a pint in memory of the Twinkie and its friends. Rest in peace, and I'm sure those produced 10 years ago will still taste fresh to someone who finds a dusty box on a back shelf 10 years from now.

Hey Jon, how about the 18 thousand plus workers who are now without a job.
Do you really think this is good news for them?
Eating any of the Hostess products is a CHOICE that should be made by the consumer.
Not having a job was a poor decision between management and union workers.
Sorry if I don't share your enthusiasm about the demise of Hostess Bakeries.

Hi, Marty. You may have missed the part of the fourth paragraph from the bottom: "I met the news of Hostess going out of business with indifference. I just feel for the people losing their jobs more than anything else." I've been out of work. I know what it's like. I'd suggest you read the whole post before commenting next time.

I'll bet another company will buy the recipe and name and start making those snacks again. I loved them when I was young but haven't had them for years. Snowballs was my favorite Hostess snack.

Hostess Cupcakes were my favorite . . . My son and I got a big laugh out of the scene in Ghost Rider 2 where the demon whose touch could wither anything organic into dust (including food) was able to eat a Twinkie with no problem. I agree with Milford Senior Man - someone else will buy the "intellectual property" and start production again.

what seems to be missing here is how a "union" has the power to close a company.
Hostess made it clear, we're hurting, profits are in the red, we cant give raises, we can cut staff and lower wages and keep thousands employed or close our doors.
Union officials in the name of workers chose to stand ground and let the factory close.
this is one of the many reasons I feel unions are out dated, its not 1920 anymore, we have osha and many other watch guard facility's in place now,
Its time for white-collar mob run unions to pack up and go the way of tommy guns and zoot suits.

They did give raises, regularly, to their senior executives. This company died due to a strong combination of financial mismanagement and the changing eating habits of consumers.
3:36 pm on Sunday, November 18, 2012
How about the huge raise the CEO gave himself, would that be something that should be addressed?
10:25 pm on Sunday, November 18, 2012
How about:
Homepride Butter top wheat bread
Beefsteak Rye & Pumpernickle
Nissen Products
I was at the store today.....these breads are ALL gone....all baked by Hostess Brands.
Check out the CEO's Resume.....he was with Worldcom, and a number of other companies on life support.....till he killed them for good......

Hostess Twinkies, Snowballs, Devil Dogs were magic in a wrapper. They were a generational treat handed down from our grandparents and then maybe to our children (depending on your age). You could drive by the Wonderbread factory and smell bread baking on any given day. Hostess was one of the few companies with a factory store where you could drive to, eyeball your treats and take them home to share. They came in a package of two so you could share. You ate them with a relative or a friend. For me, they are a symbol of shared times. I'll miss seeing the wrappers, in many ways the displays were a bit of a photo album from younger days.

No. Greedy, incompetent management has done it again..
"The U.S. trustee in the bankruptcy of Hostess Brands Inc. asked a judge to take control of the company's liquidation away from the baker of Twinkies and Wonder bread. U.S. Trustee Tracy Hope Davis today urged U.S. Bankruptcy Judge Robert D. Drain in White Plains, New York, to convert the case to a Chapter 7 from Chapter 11, based partly on the company's intent to pay executive bonuses.
Hostess officials "have not demonstrated that the insider bonuses are permissible," Davis wrote in a court filing".
5:36 pm on Tuesday, November 20, 2012
Yup, greedy mgt and greedy unions. Only problem is the mgt makes the decisions for the company (since they are the more highly skilled at that, even if they did it poorly, and they have far more professional stress and responsibilities than bakers). If the bakers don't like it, they can try being the mgrs and run the company, or not work for Hostess if they don't like the way they're compensated. Better yet, start their own bakery.

Part of the problem that Hostess faces is that their distribution system has had a shift from school cafeterias where the audience was captive and the lunches were horrible, to gas stations where you can also purchase a variety of other things. School lunches are getting healthier and junk options fewer. Additionally, Hostess used to do A LOT of advertising on television. You don't see that anymore and it can't be helping the brand. The majority of discussion I've heard is from adults 40+ who loved the products as a kid (myself included) but rarely eat them today. I had a "fix" about a month ago. The product isn't what it used to be and hasn't been for years, so attracting new customers is going to be even more difficult. I'm sure someone will pick up the license for some of the products, but if they don't sell better than the competition they will lose their shelf space in a heartbeat.

Why do the unions get blamed for wanting a living wage when the CEO and top management tripled their salary in the middle of bankruptcy proceedings? The top executives will be getting $1.75 million in bonuses while the workers who spent their career at Hostess will now find themselves without retirement income. When did it become ok to reward incompetence while breaking promises to the workers who make your product? It might not be the 20's but that is the direction we are heading in.

The workers ARE the unions. It is a rhetorical ploy to pretend that the people who work in the factories (or, in this case, the industrial-size bakery) are somehow separate from the unions. Unions raised the standards of living in this country for the working and middle classes--they CREATED the American Middle Class, one of the GREATEST of American accomplishments and ideals--and the war of terror that short-sighted and selfish people wage on them today is a false war. It is a war of terror because it depends on the notion that if you have a job, you might lose it if you expect too much (a decent wage; the right to a share in profits such as was normal fifty years ago and has become rarer and rarer in this country over the past twenty years, as the divide between the rich and the poor expands). It is a false war because the unions ARE the workers--they are you and me, they are your firemen and your police departments and your librarians and your custodians and your teachers and your road workers and construction workers. They ARE YOU.

Greg, regarding your earlier comment above, I'd suggest you look up a word before suggesting someone else do the same. One of the definitions of "indifferent" listed by Mirriam-Webster is "that does not matter one way or the other." You can look it up. I don't wish job loss on anyone, but don't care either way that the snacks are no longer available. Never did I think a walk down memory lane in the snack aisle would lead to insults, and a debate on unions and corporate greed, but, I guess with the path Patch has taken, I should have expected no different. Some things are written and just meant to be read for fun.

Well what's the fuss ? All these products are currently made in Canada by a different company and can be readily imported to the USA. I guess that's progress.

Traditional style, a high brick gable surrounding the library window and the arched brick entrance set the tone for this luxury house plan. Upon entering, you will be awestruck by the two-story foyer and elegant curved stair leading to the upper level balcony, truly an impressive entrance. A soaring ceiling tops the classy library with two entries. Across the foyer, the formal dining room is the site of many memorable family meals in the years to come. A pantry, cooking island and angled counter enhance the kitchen as it opens to the bayed morning room and spacious great room creating an open and free-flowing floor plan. Built-ins flank the great room fireplace and a patio extends the living areas outdoors. Loaded with extravagant elements, the first floor master bedroom offers a relaxing retreat beginning with the unique raised ceiling and bay window. The splashy whirlpool tub enhances the lavish bath decked with his and hers walk-in closets and vanities. Leading to the second floor, a separate back stairway serves the family areas on the upper level. Three bedrooms overlook the foyer and living room from the balcony and access two full bathrooms. The media room is just the place for popcorn and a movie with the kids. A handy computer nook and a storage area enhance this space.

Whether it's an annual tradition or a first-time experience, the New York Philharmonic Concerts in the Park has something for everyone. Strong knowledge of classical music is not a must. In fact, concertgoers don't even have to be fans.
But there are some real concert necessities: a blanket, bug spray, the kids, maybe the dog and the right attitude.
"Could you ask for more in New York? Could you ask for more in Brooklyn? I don't think so," says one concertgoer.
A full spread is also a must-have for music fans who are also foodies.
"We have some gazpacho. We have a quinoa with red peppers and corn and basil," says an attendee.
"Oreo-crusted pie with vanilla pudding," says another.
"We're going eat shrimp and tartar sauce," says a third.
If that seems like a mouthful, check out the musical offerings. The Philharmonic is alternating two programs featuring Johannes Brahms, Richard Wagner, Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky and Ottorino Respighi.
Whatever is on the program, there's always plenty of musical fireworks and the show ends with the real thing.
"My favorite part was the fireworks. I liked it a lot," says one concertgoer.
"They were brilliant and the Tchaikovsky's wonderful, always like very dramatic," says another.
"It's fabulous. It's beautiful," says a third.
The only thing a concertgoer can't bring is the great weather but they can hope for it. And maybe they will leave a fan.
For more details on the upcoming concerts, view www.nyphil.org.

Hotel Alcatraz Isn't Exactly Like The Prison
By editor
Good morning. I'm Renee Montagne. Alcatraz Island was once home to Al Capone and Machine Gun Kelly. This week, a few lucky visitors are getting to spend a night in the Hotel Alcatraz. This version of the legendary prison is in London, not San Francisco Bay, part of a promotion for the sci-fi series Alcatraz that debuted in Britain this week. Hotel Alcatraz features guards instead of bellhops and rooms like cells. But a menu with something you wouldn't find behind bars - wine. It's MORNING EDITION. Transcript provided by NPR, Copyright National Public Radio.

The poison ballot remained on my desk, unopened until Dec. 31.
I knew what was in there. Hardball anthrax. Nothing could be gained from tearing it open. Only bad things could come of it.
They dont have to be at the top of your ballot but some of the confessed or caught are still Hall of Famers. Where did it start and end will never really be known. Lance Armsrtong used drugs to overcome challanges most could not handle laying down. i applaud him. Still took incredible skill rrsiliance and training. This stuff is not majic its s upplement albeit very helpful. So is speed , cortizone , Lazer eye surgery,the best Doctors, and many other forms of cheating. Do i wish it were pure ? yes. Can they all be Williams ? Can we even find out who is really pure now anyway.. Very tough.. nothing is black and white except a hoodsie right when you open the cover. After that its all mixed up. Just my two cents..
Glad to hear someone refuse to get on the "they were HOF'ers anyway" bandwagon. Honestly, the people making excuses for these cheaters just seems to represent the way morals swirl down the drain nowadays. It really is not very trendy to have any character; I guess that comes with so many living in Mom's basement. And I like the vote for Schill. Borderline, yes, but I agree... I'd give the ball to Schill 100 times for a game I had to win before I gave it to Fat Roger. Morris, too.
So dan, you have a huge problem with ped's, but no problem with cocaine? Seriously, where was the outrage in 1985 when the "pirates / mlb" cocaine scandal broke out? Tim Raines was in the middle of it, admitting that he not only did cocaine during games, but would slide headfirst so to not break the viles in his back pocket. Hey, in the same investigation, John Milner testified that Willie Mays gave him amphetimines! Sorry you are so offended by 35 year olds taking andro to get their T levels back to what they were when they were 25 (ok, some may have strecthed it a bit beyond that). Just want to make sure I understand the full extent of your hypocrisy!
Thank you Dan. I can only hope that other sportswriters vote to uphold the integrity of the Hall and the Game by doing the same.
In the summer of 1995, I took my then 8 year old son to Fenway Park to watch the Red Sox and the A's. Mark Maguire came to bat 3 times, and hit 3 towering home runs. It was a feat foreshadowing the race to pass Maris, a piece of history, a baseball legend being made in front of our eyes. I got to share that with my son.... but it was all a fraud.
I was cheated, my son was cheated, baseball was cheated, we were all cheated.
That memory is a reminder to me of what those cheaters took from all of us. It was fools gold that makes you feel the fool when you realize it was all an illusion and you were the sap that bought it. We can't undo history, but your action is a small step taken in the right direction.
Like it or not, believe who you choose, but, while Shaughnessy' s principle is right, that plain fact which cannot be denied is that Roger Clemens was judged in a court of law by a jury of his peers not to have lied to Congress, a verdict that cannot have bee decided without also, having heard all the evidence, concluding that he did not use steroids. Not voting for perhaps the greatest pitcher of all times because you think he used steroids when a jury concluded otherwise violates a much higher principle - in this country a person is innocent unless proven guilty, and this man was proneness not guilty.
Where is the integrity in professional sports to begin with? Most professional athletes are spoiled and vastly overpaid. Those who decry being defrauded by those using PEDs need to get a life. They were defrauded the moment they began hero worshipping athletes and paying exhorbitant ticket prices. As far dirty players qualifying for the Hall of Fame, they chose to risk the health consequences of taking PEDs to lengthen their careers and fatten their paychecks. In doing so, they forfeited recognition for their tainted "accomplishments."
Great vote on Schilling. I remember being a twelve year old in Baltimore when Frank Robinson came to the Orioles in a trade for Milt Pappas and (I think) Jack Baldschun. The Birds already had another Robinson, a pitcher named Palmer, along with Powell, McNally, and others. Frank put them over the top that year (1966). I'm not comparing Schilling to Robinson in terms of performance; the latter was in a class by himself. But Schilling came with a lot of expectation weight on his shoulders, and he delivered. In one commercial from 2004, Schilling said he came to Boston to break an 86 year old curse. He did it, and he's got decent numbers to go along with that year and the special one with Arizona. Borderline? OK. But borderline on the positive side. Again, great vote.
"In addition — even more unfair — you don't get my vote if you look dirty. " L'etat, cest moi. If two of the criteria for HOF membership are sportmanship and character, Cooperstown might want to start cleaning house. See the article in the NYT today:

Met Police boss says it's do or die time for play-off chasers (From Wimbledon Guardian)

Visit of Cray Wanderers to Imber Court is a massive game says Cooper
2:00pm Friday 8th March 2013 in Football By Tim Ashton
Met Police manager Jim Cooper admitted the time has come to make or break their season, and that anything other than a win over Cray Wanderers on Saturday will break it.
After a 1-0 Ryman Premier defeat last weekend at home to Wealdstone, Cooper cut a frustrated figure on the touchline at the Beveree on Tuesday night watching a 0-0 draw with Hampton & Richmond.
The double blank and solitary point has left Met eighth in the table, four points off the play-offs – a mountain that is insurmountable, according to Cooper, without three points off Cray at Imber Court.
"Tuesday night was not an attractive game of football as the Hampton pitch was pretty shocking," Cooper said.
"However, we did not test the Wealdstone keeper either on Saturday and that is a little worrying.
"We have some very good forwards but it is just not happening for them right now.
"But if we lose to Cray and have won just one point in nine with barely a shot on goal, we're not going to get into the play-offs.
"For that reason, Saturday is a massive game for us and we have to win.
"We go into it as favourites, but I am not anticipating an easy game at all, they have some very good players."
Meanwhile, Tom Kavanagh, who missed the Hampton & Richmond derby through injury is, according to Cooper, struggling to come to terms with life in the Ryman Premier Division.
The midfielder is expected back for the weekend, but the 22-year-old, following his move from Sutton United of the Blue Square South in February, is taking longer to settle at Imber Court than Cooper had hoped.
Kavanagh dropped a level to join the Met and, according to Cooper, the drop down is the problem.
He said: "It has taken Tom a little time to adjust to the different level of football.
"The issue is that, at Blue Square South level, the football is more physical, whereas we like to get the ball down and play. That was our downfall against Wealdstone, they bullied us out of the game."
Meanwhile, Met Police will travel to Godalming Town on March 20 to vie for a place in the Surrey Senior Cup final.
The winner will face Sutton United or AFC Wimbledon at Gander Green Lane on May 7.

As the Christmas season is in full force, Valiant Swords, premiere seller of practical and display swords, jumps into the holiday spirit with a limited time Christmas sale. Customers can visit the retailer's homepage to get a discount code that can be applied to all orders.
(PRWEB) December 13, 2012
In the spirit of Christmas, Valiant Swords, premiere vendor of practical and display swords, celebrates the season of giving with a special Christmas sale. This limited time sale will give customers an instant 7% discount on all items store wide, which is on top of already reduced prices of 10-40% off. To receive the promotional code that will be applied to all orders upon checkout, visit the store's homepage.
As a diverse sword hub, Valiant Swords features several different types of swords for many occasions. For history buffs, there are a variety of swords from ancient Greece and ancient Rome, as well as the Medieval, and Viking eras. In addition, there are also pirate, fantasy, and Civil War swords. Valiant Swords also has a line of Samurai products including forged steel, folded steel, economical, and battle ready swords, as well as Ninja, Odachi, and Chinese weapons. In addition, the sword vendor also offers knives, rapiers, daggers, and other cutting blades.
Among the most popular items this holiday season is King Arthur's Premiere Excalibur. This display sword dates back to Medieval times and the legend of the king of Camelot who pulled this medieval sword from a stone. The 44 inch sword is made of polished stainless steel and features a decorative imprint on the blade and dragon and beastly serpent etchings on the guard and pommel. As a finishing touch, this sword is set against a cherry wood plaque and promises to be a nice showcase in any room.
