I would like to commend her on her excellent service as she has restored my faith in general cusomer services/client care.
Thanx so much Lynette!!

Kind Regards

[10/09/2012]I would just like rate the service received from Lynette Weimers on Monday 6 August 2012 as 10 out of 10.
I made a booking for accommodation at Riptide for the 17th and 18th of August and she was very friendly and very helpful. Not long after our telephonic conversation, I received my provisional booking confirmation. I also had a number of questions about the unit and she was just too glad to be of assistance. She's a real asset to your company and it's a pleasure to have made the booking through her.
Kind regards
Adrian Carney
[08/08/2012]I just got back from an AMAZING VACATION with 5 of my friends. We stayed at one of the holiday destinations Palm Lakes Estate in Ballito. We arrived at the accommodation with a VERY warm welcome from Bridgette and Ursula. Amazing Vouchers were very friendly and at the same time very professional. Abigail Joon and Mariska Gerber assisted me with regards to the deposit as well as any concerns I had regarding the accommodation.
The weather was perfect every single day of the week, the accommodation was in the heart of Ballito, with access to most of what we needed and 2 minutes away from the private beach Tinley Manor, which was absolutely breath taking. I would like to thank everyone at Amazing Vacations and Amazing Vouchers for an AMAZING week and your hospitality.
Kind Regards,
Leasle Hedley
[06/08/2012]I have been a member of Amazing Vacations for over a year now. I am a Durbanite and I decided to go to Cape Town for a vacation with 5 of my friends last year.
Abigail made the preparation and stay in Cape Town to be hustle-free and AMAZING!! 3 of my friends ended up joining. I have never experienced such a professional service from any consultant. She is one employee you cannot afford to lose.
I am looking forward to another AMAZING vacation this year!!!
Yours Sincerely
Philisiwe Mthemba
[16/07/2012]A girl needs a treat from time to time. Just a little something to say Thank You for your dedication and excellent service you have provided me since becoming a member.
Gretchen Jacobs
[21/06/2012]I would like to thank Abigail for her outstanding customer service. It was the first time I utilized your company service and I am very impressed. She has gone beyond her call of duty.
Abigail micro managed my trip, from the booking system until I reached Ballito, I was running late and she politely requested Ballito to accommodate me. Abigail is a true ambassador of your organization, and through her I will personal recommend Amazing Voucher to my colleagues and friends.
Please send my word of appreciation to Bridgette at Ballito.
David Maseko
[21/06/2012]Hi Kashiefa
I would like to take this opportunity and say thank you very much for everything. It was very nice and we really enjoyed our holiday. Please pass my gratitude to Ursula and Bridget, I appreciate everything they did for us.

[21/06/2012]Good afternoon Mr Coquillon,
The purpose of this communiqué is to express my utmost appreciation for the outstanding service rendered by one of your employees, Ms Nadia Benjamin. I joined Amazing Vouchers earlier last year, but have been struggling to follow the instructions on the website when attempting to choose and print a voucher. But after speaking to Ms Benjamin on the phone this afternoon, she instinctively jumped to my aid, further heartily explaining to me how the whole system operates. But what made the whole encounter to exciting and touching was Ms Benjamin's continued belief that the CUSTOMER IS ALWAYS RIGHT. Thanks to people like Ms Benjamin, I am even prepared to encourage some of my colleagues within the Department of Correctional Services to also join Amazing Vouchers! Keep it up Ms Benjamin. You are a shining star!
Simphiwe Xako
[21/06/2012]Dear Ms Killin,

[08/12/2011]I just want to send a HUGE thank you to the lovely people at Amazing Vouchers.
I was lucky enough to be the winner of their Clifton Girls' Getaway competition (Cosmopolitan June 2011). Not only does my prize include a 7-day holiday at a breath-taking Clifton beach bungalow, but I also get to take three of my favourite people with me. We all received a Nintendo Wii console, iPod Touch, Canon camera and Sony netbook, as well as spa treatments from the Camelot Spa Group.
What more could a girl wish for? I still cannot believe it. And it was so simple!
It's been a pleasure dealing with Amazing Vouchers. I recommend that everyone takes a look at their website for awesome vouchers and freebies.
Amy-Lee Kritzinger
[30/08/2011]I just want to thank the team of Amazing Vouchers. We had an awesome weekend...we can't wait to book another vacation with Amazing Vacations...the hospitality was exceptional.

Kind Regards,
Desiree Perumal
Dear Abigail,
I had the opportunity to holiday in Ballito Bay during 22 - 29 July 2011; and needless to say it was AMAZING!!
At first I was very sceptical about going on holiday with a voucher to a place that I didn't choose myself, but when we saw Palm Lakes Estate we knew that this was going to be a five star holiday destination. From the moment we were recieved at the gate by Bridget to the day when we left our key at security we felt like very important people (VIP's).
Once again thank you Amazing Vouchers for our AMAZING holiday. Please convey our sincere gratitude to Bridget as well.
Charmaine Andrews

Amazing Vouchers,
My family and I just came back from holiday in Ballito and we had a fabulous time there. My family and I were welcomed with such warm and welcoming smiles from Ursula and Bridgette. They made everything so easy for us and even took the time to inform us about the shuttle service that Amazing Vouchers is offering. We signed up on the shuttle service and the guy who drives the shuttle, Armstrong was FANTASTIC. He is polite, respectful and always has a smile.
Kind Regards,
Ms Kedibone Maganedisa
Dear Abigail,

Hi Lee-Ann
Thank you guys for your great customer service. At first I thought this was too good to be true but indeed Amazing Vouchers is amazing. I just got married in Feb and I decided to take myself and my wife to Dorphene in Century City for our honeymoon.
WOW !!! What an experience !!!! The place is immaculate. Big ups to you Lee-Ann, Stanley and to everyone at Amazing Vouchers.
Walter Mohlala
Hello Lee-Ann
Firstly I would like to thank you for all the effort that you put in for me to get my vacation in December at Palm Lakes Estate. Ursula and Bridget were the most exuberant hosts and friendliness was not the word. The unit was exceptional and we were in the lap of luxury. I have been a member of Amazing Vouchers since June 2006 and have had not one regret (4 and a half years WOW). So when the debit goes off for R295 a month I just smile because I know that I have paid for quality.
Amazing Vouchers must just continue what they are doing because I for one am the happiest customer ever. BIG UP TO AMAZING VOUCHERS AND ALL THE STAFF IN CAPE TOWN - YOU GUYS ARE THE BEST.
Hillary Maytham
I would like to thank Amazing Vouchers & Netflorist for the lovely prize I received. It was an absolute surprise. I haven't won anything in a long time. So it must be my lucky year.
Kind regards
It is with great enjoyment and gratitude that I would like to thank Michelle van Wyk as well as the Amazing Voucher Team in Cape Town. Our family had a wonderful time in Cape Town because of you guys.
We were really impressed with our accommodation. Everything was exactly as explained and according to the photo's and information that I saw on the internet. Because of what I've experienced I would like to join Amazing Vouchers again for R295 per month.
Kind regards,
Roseline Mogaecho
I would like to compliment Desiree for her extraordinary customer service skills. It has been long since I received such an interesting, yet pleasant call from a sales consultant. Desiree does not only know how to feed the needs of her customers, but I can hear that she has a positive, pleasant spirit to communicate with all people over the telephone. I must add that the picture she gave of herself is of a mature, professional and witty, beautiful woman, each of which would be appealing to all types of customers. Even if I were having a bad day, it would have been easy for her to put a smile on my face.
Michelle Beaumont
My family spent 6 days at the Palm Lakes Estate from 17 to 23 December 2010 courtesy of Amazing Vouchers. I would really like to compliment the Amazing Vouchers team on their excellent service. The unit in which we stayed was clean, orderly and somewhat luxurious. We loved the neighbourhood, and security. Your unit was good enough for us to have a comfortable, memorable stay for the short while we spent there. Bridget offered us top class service, responding swiftly and positively. I had a problem with my car battery, and was jump-started by an Amazing Vouchers vehicle. To the entire Amazing Vacations team, including the staff in your office who made the booking, and everyone who made sure we had a pleasant holiday – A BIG THANK YOU!!
Warren Fisher
I would just like to compliment Leroy Darling for the exceptional service I received from him. He went out of his way to assist me and he always follows up on my requests.
He really is a great asset to your company and should be considered to be developed into a managerial position as his customer service went way beyond the call of duty.
Minette Busch
I would just like to put on record that if it was not for Angelique's extremely warm, friendly and professional nature, I would never have considered signing up. Thank you Angelique and keep up the bubbly attitude – THE WORLD IS YOUR OYSTER!
Happy Client
I was impressed about the service rendered to me by Nadia. If you keep people like her in your company, you will flourish. She does not get tired of explaining - she goes the extra mile to check the info that we need.
Sindiswa Gojo
I must tell you that my parents were treated like family at Riptide. They could not speak highly enough of Stanley, who assisted them during their stay. (Amazing Vacations)
Claudia Handschuh
I would like to give a thank you to Amazing Vouchers for the amazing service and vacation. The person who assisted me to arrange my vacation was Lee-Ann, I must say she is a wonderful person to deal with, whenever I sent her emails she would reply immediately.
I finally went to Cape Town last week in Bloubergstrand (Riptide) and I was welcomed by another very sweet gentleman by the name of Stanely, the units are very nice and neat. I had the time of my life with my fiance, Stanley and Lee-Ann were such darlings. I will never forget the experience.
Mandisa Sangosha
We were guests during the weekend of the 10th September. We arrived at Palm Lakes Estate at about 4pm, and called Brigitte, and wow, to my delight, came this lovely bubbly young lady, who so warmly greeted me and my family, then immediately guided us through to our apartment and proceeded to guide us through the procedure.
Much to my delight, I found her to be very friendly and courteous, yet very professional at all times. She took time out to make us feel comfortable during our stay there, she even informed my nephew of the clubhouse which he thoroughly enjoyed.
Both, Ursula and Brigitte took every care of us, humanly possible. I am also in the service industry as I work for South African Airways and I know firsthand, how much of a difference it makes to our passengers to take care of them and make them feel special and welcome. To this end, we were spoilt.
I commend these two for the excellent care in which they had given and they have certainly put a very nice end to a much deserved weekend away. What a delight!!!
Brigitte, this type of service and professionalism and service levels such as yours, is what makes us the great nation that we are. It is wonderful and very reassuring to know that one still gets this type of service today.
Warm regards and many thanks!
Colleen Balkissoon
I took out my subscription a year ago with Allan. Firstly, congratulations to Allan for his helpfulness and friendliness. Wonderful to know there are such efficient people around. The vouchers I used during the year were definitely value for money. I never experienced any trouble when presenting the vouchers. I am proud to say I have now upgraded and renewed my subscription for another year. So now I get to treat myself and my family again and also many more wheel alignments and car washes lie ahead for my car as well. Thank you very much to Amazing Vouchers.

You guyz rock! Big time…..mwah!
Madonna Berry
I have joined Amazing Vouchers in February and not once have I been disappointed. I was in a hurry to get to Cape Town and needed accommodation urgently, and at a reasonable price and if this was not for Amazing Vouchers, who kept in contact with me regularly, showing such concern for me and assisting where they could, I am not sure how I would have handled it. They basically did all the work for me - all I did was to accept the calls or reply to the emails. I have never received such a fantastic service from any company. So, Michelle Van Wyk and Milana Hoskins, thank you for all your time and effort you gave me and for being so understanding. It is a pleasure to do business with you.
Sandra Swanepoel
I would like to inform you that I have never received such exceptional service from a call centre before, taking into consideration that I am in the same industry.
Miss Sharon Wyngaard has a unique capability to handle a query no matter what the situation.
She is an asset to your company and I hope you show her some gratitude for the brilliant service she gives your clients.

This is one of the best things I have joined, really!

I have never in my life received such a service telephonically and personally. Please forward this e-mail to your team and let them know that "You are 1 in a million".
I will never regret joining Amazing Vouchers!

We are showing you the Global version of our site: would you prefer a different location?
2010 NW Rapha Gentlemen's Race: Preview
If you have but only a few minutes to escape at your computer today, you should definitely watch the three trailers of the films originally inspired by the Rapha Club Jerseys. Mr. Livesey, Mr. Moat and dear Ben Ingham have created some wonderful pieces, each unique and charming in the way they bring the subject of those inside labels to life. Again, those films will be available each Friday for the next three weeks- beginning next Friday. Each just for the day, so set a reminder on your schedule.
However, if your day affords you a bit more time, might I suggest you also enjoy the recent film from the 2010 NE Rapha Gentlemen's Race. It's particularly relevant in the Northwest region of the U.S. as this year's teams final prep for the NW edition of the race—happening on Saturday, August 14 in the greater Portland, OR area. There are a record 28 teams competing in this third running of the race, and just for sport, a couple professional riders have made their case for a man vs. man solo race, a first for the event. Ryan Trebon, from the Kona Cyclocross team will take on Jason Sager who is always representing EDGE Composites and is a nationally ranked mountain bike man.
The teams this year will include six squads of all or mostly women, a trio of tandems again from Bilenky Cycle Works, the returning champions from local-shop River City, and a return of the group from Studio Velo from Mill Valley, CA. The team from Studio Velo last year was so inspired by the race last year, they've had a 36-page book printed and on their counter in the store all year. A slightly truncated version of that book is available here:

Wonderful product!

Posted by Reviewer1600024 From California on Oct 27, 2012
Purchased at iHerb
I was very pleasantly surprised when I tried this product. I expected that it would be like everything else and give me a funny color. Boy, what a treat, as this product gives me a golden glow. I only use one application as I do not want to look tan tan, just not pale. It looks completely natural and the ingredients are safe. I definitely recommend this product.

The Dream Lives On
By: Caroline Lockwood
Updated: November 5, 2012
As it turns out, the Panthers are not ready to go home.
Permian stunned Midland Lee on Friday night with a 28-21 come from behind win over the Rebels. With that victory, the Panthers' playoff hopes are very much alive.
"We've gotta win. We've gotta beat Coronado," said head coach Gary Gaines. "If Midland beats Abilene High, we're out of it. If Abilene wins, then we're in. So, that is kind of the way it is right there. Depending on what seed we're in in the big school division, would determine who plays who in El Paso."
The Panthers face Lubbock Coronado at Lowery Field in Lubbock on Thursday. Kick off is scheduled for 7:30 p.m.

One of our most popular packaging projects has made the news again. After generating buzz as a "UFO" being shipped across country on a flatbed truck, the 'stealth drone', or X-47B, has been moved again, but this time it's out to sea.
Sorry ET fans it was just an X-47B Unmanned Drone, but we did prepare this aircraft for it's cross country trip.

For the next month, City Council members will continue to scrutinize what local government officials are calling the first "sustainable" budget in years.
At an ongoing series of public meetings, local officials are hearing community feedback on the proposed $191.96 million spending plan.Last week, area leaders heard from several groups asking bigger pieces of what has become a very carefully sliced pie.Dairy farmers Monday urged the state yet again to boost minimum prices they get from processors.
Western United Dairymen, based in Modesto, and allied groups asked the California Department of Food and Agriculture to increase the price for milk that is made into cheese.City officials looked to the City Council for direction Monday night as they continue to fine tune a plan to make about 10 miles of roads in south and central Merced more bike friendly.
At a council meeting in April, several council members voiced concerns with the proposed use of "sharrows" on Childs Avenue because of the heavy traffic in the area.The City Councilman unanimously backed an evolving plan hatched by Councilman Mike Murphy that would provide a roughly $1,000 incentive for new businesses that open downtown.

Professional RC plane simulator - a must have for anyone flying RC. The models fly like real RC planes, and can be used to learn to fly and to improve your flying. A lot of fun for free, then buy more models as you learn! Any plane crash cost many times more, and you will be able to fly in the sim no matter what is the weather outside! The app is based on our well known ClearView RC Flight Simulator for PC. The program includes many models - planes, helicopters and boats. While the planes are too many to list, here is a sample of them:Apprentice (Trainer) - Free
AT-6 Harvard (Low Wing Intermediate) - IAP
P-51 Mustang (War bird scale - Intermediate-Advanced) - IAP
A-10 Warthog (Electric fan scale - Advanced) - IAP
The program also includes 6 flying fields:

1. This is not a game. You are controlling flying rc models that reacts like real flying models. It takes some time to learn, and again, do not expect "arcade" style controls.
2. The onscreen control sticks are just indicators! They are made small so they do not obscure the screen.
*** You do not need to keep your fingers on them ***
Sliding your finger any where on the right screen half affects the right control stick , the same for the left screen part - sliding finger there moves the left control stick.
We suggest to select beginner settings at first few days before you can comfortably progress further.

AX2 Floorboard Expression (Wah) pedal
Like (0)
Mine has stopped working... I took the floorboard apart and it all seems to be working. The film strips are running through where they are supposed to. I know this problem was discussed on the old board, but can't remember what to do. Any ideas?
Hi there,
I seem to have the same issue on my Floorboard's Wah pedal. I can activate the function itself in stepping with my toes on it (red LED lits), but when going back and forth with the wah pedal, nothing happens. After digging around a bit I found 2 links that might describe the problem. Suggest to give it a try - I certainly will do it during the next couple of days. Let you know about any success.
whish a happy christmas - cheers - markus
UPDATE: got the Wah Pedal back to life :-)
So her's what I did:
1st) resistor film strips were OK.
2nd) I checked both of the transistor (Q1/Q2) on the small PCB (the one right beneath the Pedals) - but could not detect any visual damage to them. So I thought I'd simply replace the one for the Wah Pedal. But that did not fix it - and I reverted this.
3rd) I checked the PCB for any cold/broken solder joint - but couldn't see any. However, from my experience as a radio technician - I thought it could not do any harm to re-solder the whole PCB, which was done quite quickly as there are not so many solder joints on it.
4th) I cleaned the RJ45 jacket (on the middle PCB), using a glass fibre pen (in th eUS you should be able to get this at Radioshack)
At the end I now don't exactly know what finally fixed the issue here, cleaning the RJ45 or re-soldering the small PCB - but to be honest - I don't care ;-)
All of the above took me less than half an hour - and the Pedal is fully back to life.
Best whishes - Markus

Heroes Volume Three, Chapter Five: Angels and Monsters
Inside a building labeled "Pinehearst", Linderman asks Daphne how she feels about recruiting super-powered individuals to form a New World Order. He gives her some files on her potential targets, who include Knox and Mohinder. Daphne agrees to help, though she dismisses them as "pretty nasty people". Now you've done it, Mohinder: your icky genetic experiments have been off-putting enough to make adorable blonde girls lump you in the "pretty nasty people" category.
In Costa Verde, Sandra Bennet finally figures out: a) there's no cheerleading retreat, and b) her daughter is a lying liar who lies. She suspects Claire, on her newfound vengeance kick, is going to try to take down the people in Bennet's files. Meredith helps Sandra sort through the files and finds one on a man she knows named Eric Doyle. Dismissing Sandra's offer to help, Meredith takes off on her own after Doyle. When next we see her, she's having dinner under duress with Doyle, who evidently has some kind of mind-control powers.
Claire, off doing her crime-fighting thing, tracks down one of the Level Five escapees to an empty house in Los Angeles (we're probably not supposed to recognize it as Evil Alternate Universe President Sylar's mansion from Season One). The escapee is named Stephen, but because he's played by Andre Royo, best known as the heartbreaking junkie/informant Bubbles from The Wire, he's going to be Bubbles from here on out. Bubbles sincerely doesn't want to hurt anyone -- he's just trying to find his wife and children, who moved away during the two years he was imprisoned in Level Five. He demonstrates his ability for Claire: he can open up cool little vortexes that suck people away into oblivion. When Claire realizes he has no intention of causing her harm, she offers to help him locate his family.
Mohinder, still evolving into a twitchy, evil, man/bug hybrid, slinks around a park and attacks a drug dealer. When they were handing out plotlines this season, poor Mo drew the short straw. He drags the unconscious dealer back to his lab, leaving a messy trail of blood. When Maya arrives to cop a quick feel, she notices the blood and beats a hasty retreat. She later sneaks into the lab and discovers Mohinder's missing wife-abusing neighbor swaddled inside a large cocoon stuck to the wall. When she tries to free the neighbor, Mohinder catches her and binds her up in another cocoon.
Claire helps Bubbles arrange to meet his wife and kids in Griffith Park. Bennet and Sylar storm in to recapture Bubbles, who opens up one of his vortexes. Claire screams and clutches desperately at the furniture to avoid getting sucked into oblivion. At the last possible second, Sylar grabs her hand and saves her life. Digression: you know the episode of Doctor Who where Rose gets sucked into the vortex between the two parallel universes, and the Doctor is helpless to save her, and it's looking like it's curtains for poor Rose, but then her father swoops in and transports her to the other universe, thus saving her life but forever separating her from the Doctor? Wow, that's a great episode. I've seen it a handful of times, and every single time, I bawl and bawl and bawl. I bring this up because this scene is startlingly similar in almost every way, except for how the version in Doctor Who is wrenching and poignant and emotionally devastating, whereas this version made me snicker.
Anyhoo. Sylar saves Claire, the vortex closes, Bubbles escapes in the confusion, Claire yells at Bennet for working with Sylar, Sylar apologizes to Claire for cutting her head open and poking around in her brains, Bennet yells at Sylar to stay away from Claire, Claire makes Bennet promise not to hurt Bubbles. Claire, Bennet and Sylar track Bubbles to Griffith Park, where he's sitting in a funk, his wife and kids having failed to show up. Over Claire's vehement protests, Bennet pulls a gun on Bubbles and orders him to create a vortex to destroy Sylar. Fed up with the Bennets and their interfamilial squabbles, Bubbles sucks himself into a vortex instead.
After much duress, the exhumed Adam Monroe agrees to help Hiro and Ando track down the stolen formula. He takes them to a bar, which he claims is one of Daphne's haunts. Adam makes a break for it, but Knox apprehends him. Daphne and Knox confront Ando and Hiro. Hiro claims he wants to work with them. Knox grabs a convenient sword (I can think of so many reasons why bars shouldn't have big displays of lethal weapons on the walls) and orders him to kill Ando to prove his loyalty. Hiro stabs Ando, who collapses in a spreading pool of blood.
Post-coital, Nathan asks Tracy if she's going to try to kill herself again. She confesses to accidentally killing the reporter with her freezing power. Nathan takes it in stride and talks her out of turning herself in to the police. He tells her his powers came from God; she tells him her powers came from a doctor in Reseda. This throws Nathan for a bit of a loop. Nathan, who knows how to show a girl a good time, stops by Level Five to introduce Tracy to his mother, who has put crazy Peter into a medically-induced coma. Angela reveals how synthetic abilities were given to baby Tracy as well as to baby Nathan, which pretty much sticks a fork in Nathan's God theory. Nathan manages to summon up some shock and moral outrage about Angela's role in these experiments. Honestly, after Angela tried to talk him into letting Peter blow up New York, you'd think nothing about his mother would faze him. Nathan and Tracy storm off, intending to ask Mohinder for help understanding Tracy's abilities.
In her office, Angela hears Tracy scream. She runs out and finds Tracy, Nathan, and Peter dead in the hallway. This all turns out to be one of her precognitive dreams, but when she wakes from it, she finds she's paralyzed at her desk.
Daphne returns to the Pinehearst facility and explains to Linderman that she's recruited Knox, Hiro, and Adam. Linderman instructs her to go after Matt next, telling her he'll be the most difficult one to bring in. Matt? Really? We're talking about Matt Parkman, right? When Daphne leaves, we discover Linderman has been merely a psychic projection generated by Matt's evil dad Maury. Oh. Maury's back. Joy.
Inside Pinehearst, a comatose man on life support communicates telepathically with Maury. This man, who appears to be the mastermind behind Pinehearst, is Arthur Petrelli, Angela's presumed-dead husband and father to Nathan and Peter. I'm sure NBC's promo department knows what it's doing, but this shocking last-minute revelation might have packed more punch if a commercial cheerfully hyping Arthur's return hadn't been airing all week long.
A fine, perky, fast-moving episode, though just to summarize: Peter tries to kill his mother, Hiro (supposedly) murders Ando, and Mohinder turns into a crazy, evil bug-man. I know this is just Heroes' fast and sloppy way of giving the nice characters some edge, but I would prefer not seeing all my sweet-natured bunny rabbits turning into homicidal twits. The show's got plenty of those already.

Ah, but on the plus side, their number one homicidal twit is turning into a sweet-natured bunny rabbit. So that evens it out.
(Where I'm using 'evened it out' in a very approximate (ie inaccurate) sense.)
Also, was I the only one who, when Claire-Bear's mothers were squabbling and Birth Mother said 'I don't see the point in you coming along, Adoptive Mother. Can you do this?' and shot some flame from her hand, wanted Adoptive Mother to say 'No, but I have a cigarette lighter here somewhere'?
Sticking with Claire-Bear. If I had to hang out with her and HRG for more than a few seconds, I'd probably vortex myself into who knows where too.
Also, I can't believe Ando's dead!! That, to me, was the real twist of this episode. Wow! Hiro really, actually killed him. Poor Ando. Oh, Hiro, how you've changed... again.
Sigh. No. But I am curious as to how they get out of it. Maybe Hiro stopped time and replaced this Ando with future Ando as some impromptu first strike revenge scheme. That's certainly how I'd do things if I had control over all time and space. - October 14, 2008 at 1:05 PM
- Morgan Richter said...
I just assumed Hiro froze time, dreamed up some cockamamie scheme involving collapsible swords and fake blood, then unfroze time and implemented said scheme. Sure, it does leave a gaping plot hole as to how Ando would know enough to play along with this, but when have gaping plot holes ever slowed this show down? I don't know, Heroes, if you're going to make me think Hiro has suddenly turned into a ruthless killer, you're going to have to try harder than that.
I'm relatively certain Bubbles jumped into the vortex just to avoid listening to Claire-Bear and HRG squabble. If I had a cool vortex power, I would do the exact same thing. I did appreciate Sylar's "Hey, wait!" expression when he started to realize HRG was planning on killing him.
Dear Heroes:
Please give me back my sweet, pretty, non-icky Mohinder. I miss him.
Morgan - October 14, 2008 at 1:23 PM

I have this theory that Mohinder just has a small, quarter-sized patch of dry skin on his back and is horribly overreacting...
Also, why did he fly all the way to LA to pick up drug dealers in "Central Park"? - October 16, 2008 at 6:38 AM
- Morgan Richter said...
Sheesh, you New York types. So critical! What, you mean "Central Park" didn't fool you? Yeah, Heroes sometimes does an okay job of making Los Angeles locations look appropriately New Yorkish... but "Central Park" was not one of those times.
Don't worry, Mohinder! I get dry, scaly skin in winter too! All you need to do is pick up a tube of hydrocortizone for $1.79 at your local CVS. That'll clear that bumpy crap right up. Sticking people in cocoons is a bit of an overreaction. - October 16, 2008 at 7:10 AM
"My skin! My once-beautiful smooth skin!"
- October 16, 2008 at 8:11 AM
- Morgan Richter said...
I bet when Evil Alternate Future Mohinder was scuttling about his lab and hiding in the shadows, he really just didn't want Peter to see the unsightly zit he'd developed on his forehead. I like that explanation better than having him looking unspeakably ugly.
Also: Maya, hon, I'm on your side, but when the crazy evil bug-man tells you to stop using your super-deadly power against him, you don't have to obey.
Also #2: All this is well and good, but I'm sure what we were all really wondering last episode was: Where's Matt? What's he up to? Because I think some quality screen time should have been devoted to watching him follow that turtle across the desert. - October 16, 2008 at 11:18 AM
- Dan said...
The turtle is obviously training Matt offscreen - the Charles Xavier to his... uh... I dunno, who is the lamest of the X-Men? Iceman?
And Mohinder should just speak to Claire-Bear and borrow some of her Neutrogena™ product range. Clear that skin right up. - October 16, 2008 at 4:24 PM
- Morgan Richter said...
Oh, Matt. I'm hoping the turtle trains him to embrace his inner evil. I'm still disheartened by the peek at his squeaky-clean Evil Alternate Future with Daphne and young Molly. Be evil, Matt! All the cool kids are doing it! Peter tried to slice open his mom's head, for crying out loud; the least you could do is start using your mind-control powers for personal gain.
- October 16, 2008 at 5:09 PM
- Morgan Dodge said...
One more vote for the turtle to return please. Speaking or not, that there turtle is a pivotal character and I'm sick of them neglecting that fact. (Are ninja skills too much to hope for?)
Peter, like all good crack addicts, just wanted to steal his mom's... brains. - October 17, 2008 at 8:33 AM

While I remain less convinced than either you or Dan of the madcap plot possibilities suggested by Matt's turtle, I would happily swap Claire-Bear, or indeed anyone with the last name Bennet, for the turtle. Dagnabbit, Claire, I've given you multiple chances to work your way ito my good graces, and you've let me down every single time. And whilst I think HRG is awesome when he's doing his shady Company Man thing (and I'm sort of digging his partnership with Sylar), he quickly becomes my least favorite character whenever he has scenes with Claire.
Also, how badass is Angela Petrelli? Her son tries to slice off the top of her head, and the next scene she's walking around with just a tiny forehead suture. - October 17, 2008 at 11:42 AM
- Dan said...
Angie P is awesome. Claire-Bear could learn a lot from her about how to 'man up' and take a good head-slicing. Uncle Peter, Uncle Sylar, it matters not. Just chill out and deal with it, girl. Heads are sliced open every day by people trying to read brains - there's no need to get in a funk about it.
Re: the turtle. I just can't wait to see where he fits in the family tree. I'm thinking he might be West's step-brother. - October 17, 2008 at 2:22 PM
- Morgan Richter said...
Seriously. So Sylar cut off the top of your head and poked around in your brains for a while. Granted, that's not going to go down as your best day ever, but you're just fine now, aren't you, Claire? When Sylar cut open Uncle Peter's head in Season One, you didn't see Peter skulking around feeling sorry for himself afterward, did you? Nope, he just pretended to be dead for a while, then healed himself up and got on with his life.
Maybe the turtle can hang out with Mohinder's lizard. If Mohinder hasn't eaten it, that is.
One thing I've forgotten to mention: doesn't it seem a wee bit anticlimactic, after several weeks of buildup involving Legendary Supervillain Malcolm McDowell, to suddenly reveal that Legendary Supervillain Malcolm McDowell is just a psychic construct created by Maury Parkman? I mean, who has more potential to inflict villainous terror: the guy from Caligula, or Matt's frumpy dad? - October 17, 2008 at 2:43 PM
- Ingrid said...
There are only two rules in life: never invite Caligula to your wedding and never let Alex and his droogs into your home...
But wait! If we go by reliable source Molly, isn't Maury supposed to be *MORE EVIL* than Sylar? - October 18, 2008 at 6:08 AM
- Morgan Richter said...
Yes, that's right. Per Molly, Maury is EVEN WORSE than Sylar. Then again, lately Sylar has been fetching coffee and making waffles and apologizing a lot, so maybe Molly knows what she's talking about.
There are some people out there who will insist McDowell's peak villainy came when he killed Kirk in a sub-park Trek film. Those people have never seen him fisting the groom on his wedding day in Caligula (Worst. Wedding. Ever). Betwixt that and his merry escapades in A Clockwork Orange, offing Shatner is small potatoes.
Not that Linderman ever whipped up much menace on Heroes, but the potential was sure there. - October 18, 2008 at 6:39 AM
- Morgan Dodge said...
Ya'll talk about the wedding in Caligula like it was the stuff of nightmares. I've been to a wedding or two in my day and at least that wedding wasn't boring. Granted, it may be easy for me to talk since it wasn't me getting violated by McDowell at my wedding. And I'm pretty sure I'll take Ingrid's advice and not invite the guy should I ever get married. But still, it wasn't a boring wedding.
I don't want to come across as anti-Shatner. I love his albums. But I'm going to have to say that maybe killing the cartoon that Kirk had become was doing the world a favor. - October 18, 2008 at 10:57 AM
- Morgan Richter said...
I know there are some even more disturbing scenes in Caligula, but it's the wedding that seared its way into my brain. I mean, he uses wedding-cake frosting as a lubricant. Some things just aren't right.
Boy-Morgan, I'm still in your debt for exposing me to Shatner's cover of "Common People". Whenever I'm having a bad day, I bop around my living room to it, and the world suddenly looks much brighter. I met Shatner when he made an appearance on Talk Soup, and he was a delightful man. Still, no, the death of Kirk didn't seem like much of a tragedy, everything considered.
Topic: how awesome does Quinto look as Spock?:
http://www.ew.com/ew/gallery/0,,20233788_1,00.html - October 18, 2008 at 1:44 PM
- Dan said...
Quinto as Spock is totally awesome. Not awesome enough to get me watching the Star Trek movie. But, still, very cool.
I've just pulled out my Official Molly Rankings of Evil table to determine whether Lindeman is above or below Maury Parkman.
Here's what it says:
1. Mr Muggles
2. Lindeman
3. Tim Kring
4. Angela Petrelli
5. Maury Parkman
6. Original Sylar
7. HRG's former boss who he shot in the head and whose name now eludes me
8. Future Sylar
9. President Nathan
10. HRG from the first half-season
24. Current Sylar
78. HRG since the first half-season
Thanks Molly.
And I'm not even going to enter the wedding discussion because, frankly, I don't see what the problem is. Frosting as lubricant. Fisting the groom. Inviting Malcolm McDowell. All pretty standard celebratory behaviour down here. (And you thought we just got wasted on Fosters™) - October 18, 2008 at 3:20 PM
- Morgan Richter said...
I've always known Australia was a wretched hive of sexual deviancy and all-around bad behavior. Because, you see, I used to watch Farscape.
The Trek reboot may very well suck, but man, I'm all in favor of that cast. Not just Quinto as Spock, but Karl Urban as McCoy? John Cho as Sulu? Simon Freaking Pegg as Scotty? I haven't been this excited about a cast since I first heard about the upcoming live-action GI Joe movie (Joseph Gordon-Levitt as Cobra Commander and Christopher Eccleston as Destro. I owe some casting director a muffin basket, because this is clearly going to be the Hamlet of GI Joe movies).
You mean Hiro doesn't make Molly's Official Ranking? Because he totally killed Ando, you know. - October 18, 2008 at 4:38 PM
- Dan said...
Heh. Not even Molly's going to fall for that.
- October 18, 2008 at 4:53 PM
- Josh Jackson said...
Are you disappointed that Heroes has taken all the supervillain potential wind out of Sylar's sails? I watched the series early on and thought I was enjoying the formative years of the greatest villain since Magneto.
Well I got back into the show as time permitted (the military has a funny way of keeping you from the shows you love) just in time to see future Sylar as a repentant, doting father. :O Who then promptly goes suicide bomber. 8O
Now as I implied earlier, I'm still catching up on a huge swath of the series, and may yet find my answers somewhere on your website. Nice to "see" you again!
P.S. I'm moving back to Spokane in January - October 19, 2008 at 5:48 AM
- Morgan Richter said...
Josh! Great to hear from you. Glad you've joined in on the comments section lunacy here.
As to Sylar, I think it's a bit of a cheat that they're excusing his prior supervillainy as just a side effect of his power ("See? When Peter has Sylar's power, he becomes equally murderous! It's not Sylar's fault that he's evil!"). I also think Sylar's more fun when he's lopping open heads left and right. That said, I'm getting a bit of a kick out of the kinder, gentler, waffle-making Sylar. We'll see where it goes.
Ingrid and I were in Spokane in June. Odd place, Spokane. - October 19, 2008 at 6:56 AM
- Dan said...
I like the idea of Sylar having occasional bursts of coffee-fetchin' goodness. After all, even Magneto spent some time sucking up to those X-Men brats.
Having said that, I also get a kick out of the talking turtle, so take everything I say with a grain of whatsisname. - October 19, 2008 at 4:32 PM
- Josh Jackson said...
Well, I suppose no one can be 100% villain. Even Claire-bear doing her best Angie Dickinson (which was awkward) had a soft moment - er, second.
Spokane is odd indeed. I was there last month visiting my daughter. In all the places I've lived or visited, Spokane is still the best place for finding pretentious yuppie and blue-collar gritty literally side by side. Recruiting there should be interesting... - October 20, 2008 at 5:26 AM
- Morgan Richter said...
I'd grouse more about how totally ineffectual I find the new, evil, vendetta-driven Claire, but mostly I'm just terribly relieved the show has veered away from all cheerleading-related plotlines. I'm trying to reward the writers for good behavior, so I'll limit myself to pointing out that perhaps Evil Alternate Future Claire is a smidgen less intimidating than intended.
I don't think I appreciated Spokane's utter schizophrenia while growing up there. It wasn't until this summer, when Ingrid and I were staying at a hotel in the sketchy part of downtown, which was down the block from the posh part of downtown, that it started to really sink in that it's a very confused place. Nice parks, though. - October 20, 2008 at 6:52 AM

Students win both state, New England outdoors writing contests
"It's relaxing, it gives you time to think. It gives you a different outlook on life and the world," she said Friday. Usually not much of an outdoors person, she drew inspiration in the quiet of nature while fishing with her sister and another relative at Moore Dam last year.
This fall, when she saw the notice of the New England Outdoor Writers Association's 2013 Youth Writing Contest posted on her classroom wall, she reached back to the day of fishing.
After writing the best essay in the senior (grades 9-12) division for the state, Brown, a freshman at Lin-Wood High School in Lincoln, went on to win first place overall for New England. Alysse Cleasby, a sixth-grader at Chichester Central School, wrote the winning essay in the junior (grades 6-8) division for New Hampshire, and first place overall for New England.
Students were asked to write an essay of not more than 500 words on an outdoor activity that increased enjoyment and knowledge of nature and natural resources.
Dr. Harold Lyon, board member of NEOWA and chair of the contest, said he is very proud of the young writers, and the English teachers who encouraged them, Kate Dockham of Chichester Central School and Heather Krill of Lin-Wood High School. Lyon visited the two schools and presented the winners with certificates for the contests, and two checks each, $50 each for the state contest, and $100 each for the New England. He also gave each teacher a red rose "to acknowledge their inspiring influence behind the scenes."
Brown and Cleasby will have their essays published in a future issue of North Woods Sporting Journal (sportingjournal.com) as part of the prize package.

I got to see a great football game between Collinsville and Spring Garden. I heard all about a solid defensive effort turned in by the Cedar Bluff Tigers against Donoho. I also attended Cedar Bluff's formal dedication celebrating the naming of the Tiger baseball field in honor of principal Bobby Mintz.
And, my best friend Kevin called me to say he and his lovely wife Tara have a new baby boy.
Can't get much better than that.
About the only thing that went bad was I lost my lead picking college football games in the WEIS "End Zone Show." (Sorry to disappoint you, Uncle Danny, but I've had a lot on my mind).
Here's hoping this weekend will be just as action-packed, and I regain my prognosticating perfection.
Munford (4-3) at Cherokee County (0-7): Former Cherokee County offensive coordinator Will Wagnon returns to Cherokee County, but now he's on the other side.
Wagnon has done a solid job with the Lions since leaving the Warriors. He's got the Lions in the hunt for the playoffs, while the Warriors are still searching for their first win.
I'm thinking that search will continue into next week … Munford 28, Cherokee County 14.
Sand Rock (3-4) at West End (0-7): After winning three of their first four games, the Sand Rock Wildcats have hit a tailspin. They've lost three in a row, and are now in danger of missing the playoffs.
Here's thinking the Wildcats get back on track with a win at West End … Sand Rock 35, West End 7.
Collinsville (6-1) at Gaylesville (3-4): For the third straight week, the Panthers tangle with one of the area's top rushers in the Trojans' John David Jennings. They've been shaky the past two weeks against Cedar Bluff's D'Shawn Fife and Spring Garden's Forrest Livingston.
I think Jennings will manage to get his yards, but I also think the Panthers will somehow manage to earn a win … Collinsville 38, Gaylesville 21.
Spring Garden (6-1) at Donoho (4-3): Best quote from Friday came from Spring Garden's Jason Howard talking about Forrest Livingston: "I'd take No. 1 over anybody in the state. He brings the intensity. He brings the hustle. He's a leader, and he showed it tonight … He didn't have anything left in his tank."
I look for Livingston to empty his tank again at Donoho, but this time it will be for a win… Spring Garden 27, Donoho 14.
Saks (6-1) at Piedmont (7-0): Both of these teams have already clinched a playoff berth. Now they both have their eyes set on a region championship.
Saks has turned things around since losing its first game against Wellborn, but I just don't see Piedmont losing on its homecoming … Piedmont 32, Saks 16.
