"Start shrieking, ladies," says Dodai Stewart at Jezebel. "Boybands are back." Fast-rising British quintet One Direction released their debut album, Up All Night, in the U.S. on Tuesday, and for the first time since tween fans launched groups like N Sync, the Backstreet Boys, and 98 Degrees into the pop music stratosphere over a decade ago, the record has the potential to be an unironic smash hit. Joining One Direction in the recent boyband renaissance is fellow British sensation The Wanted. Given the success of these U.K. imports, is it safe to say, "The boys are back?" Here, a guide:
Who are these boybands?
The Wanted, described by Steve Knopper at Rolling Stone as "a quintet of hunky Irish-British dudes who sing romantic party music," is breaking out with their club-ready single "Glad You Came." (Watch the music video below.) The track was featured on the most recent episode of Glee, has sold 206,000 copies, topped the U.S. iTunes singles chart, and its video has logged more than 36 million YouTube views. The group is "teen-dream-ready," says Stewart, with their "clean-cut ethnically ambiguous good looks and frighteningly perfect eyebrows."
What about One Direction?
One Direction's buzzy first single "What Makes You Beautiful" debuted three weeks ago at number 28 on the Billboard Hot 100 singles chart, marking the highest debut for a British act in nearly 15 years. (Watch the music video below.) The group recently booked a coveted musical guest spot on the upcoming April 7 episode of Saturday Night Live, which is "guaranteed to boost the popularity" of the group in the U.S., says Maria Mercedes Lara at Wetpaint, and their debut album Up All Night is "expected to debut at No. 1" this week. The band was formed when its five members auditioned for the U.K. version of The X Factor in 2010. They'll be "taking their clear skin, floppy hair, and tight trousers to the Today show next week," says Stewart, and are currently on tour with Nickelodeon stars Big Time Rush.
Is their music any good?
One Direction scored a huge upset last month at the 2012 BRIT Awards, the U.K.'s version of the Grammys, when they defeated Adele to win "Best British Single" for "What Makes You Beautiful." The song is "the real deal," says Jason Lipshutz at Billboard, and is as "endlessly playable as [N Sync's] 'Bye Bye Bye' or [the Backstreet Boys'] 'Everybody (Backstreet's Back)'" ever was. More than that, Up All Night as a whole "demonstrates an originality in sound that was necessary for the revitalization of the boy band movement." The Wanted's smash "Glad You Came" is "summery dance jam straight from the shores of Ibiza," says Grady Smith at Entertainment Weekly, and should become this summer's "radio-club titan."
Are other bands joining the movement?
Korean pop music, referred to as K-pop, is "crossing over into American markets," says Aylin Zafar at TIME, bringing with it boybands like Big Bang. The group has plans to work with Chris Brown and super-producer Swizz Beatz, and is already so popular internationally that it beat Britney Spears at the MTV European Music Awards for Best Worldwide Act. Nickelodeon's Big Time Rush has a loyal tween following, while the New Kids on the Block and Backstreet Boys supergroup NKOTBSB continues to tour successfully "thanks to nostalgia-loving fans."
So, is this comeback for real?
If nothing else, One Direction and The Wanted are making a splash, says Stewart. "In the age of raw, raunchy, sexually explicit tweets and iPhone hacks, something light and sweet feels like a pleasant change." Besides, for the younger generation, this boyband renaissance seems "all new and fresh." Plus the music is legitimately good, says Smith. "Glad You Came" was catchy enough to be a smash "with or without the Glee boost." There is, however, at least one person who's dubious that this latest British invasion will take. New Kids on the Block veteran Joey McIntyre tells Yahoo UK, "The odds are against both One Direction and The Wanted — neither of them are going to work in America — and it hasn't happened in 50 years so why now?"
The Wanted — "Glad You Came"
One Direction — "What Makes You Beautiful"

Before we discuss gun control, let's look at the causes of death that we inflict upon ourselves.
Over the previous 10 years, highway traffic deaths averaged about 35,000 (Statistics from the U.S. Census). These numbers do not reflect drivers and passengers who were critically injured and spent many weeks or months in hospitals.
Statistics from the Center for Disease Control for 2010 show that approximately 2,500 of these traffic deaths were teenagers.
FBI statistics for 2011 show 12,665 murders broken down as follows:
Firearms — 8,583; knives — 1,694; hands, feet, fists — 728; blunt object (hammer, baseball bat, etc.) — 496
What these statistics show is that first of all we must not allow teenagers to drive until their 20s or beyond. But to be really safe we must eliminate automobiles completely.
Next, of course, we must ban guns, knives, hammers, baseball bats and other blunt objects. Ridiculous?
There are more gun control laws on the books than you can even imagine, but how about looking at the real cause of violence.
Can we control what we all see every day on TV? Before you tell me that violence on TV has no influence, please tell me why companies will spend $3 million or more on a 30-second Super Bowl commercial? If you watch any amount of TV, you are constantly bombarded by commercials because consumers are affected by what they see and hear.
How about the destruction of the family as an integral part of society and along with it the loss of moral values. Right and wrong no longer exist. If it feels good do it. As a culture, we are lost to depravity.

[edit] ProvincesAll regions except one (Metro Manila) are subdivided into provinces. Each province is headed by a governor. Its legislative body is the Sangguniang Panlalawigan composed of the different members from Sanggunian districts, which in most cases are contiguous to the congressional districts.
[edit] Cities and municipalitiesRegions, aside from having provinces may also have independent cities. Independent cities, classified either as highly urbanized or independent component cities, are cities which are not under the jurisdiction of a province. These cities are not administered by their mother provinces, do not share their tax revenues with the province, and in most cases their residents are not eligible to elect or be elected to provincial offices.
Cities that are politically a part of a province are called component cities. The voters in these cities are allowed to vote and run for positions in the provincial government.
Municipalities are always components of a province, except Pateros, Metro Manila, which is independent.
Cities and municipalities are headed by a mayor. The legislative arm of these units are the Sangguniang Panlungsod for cities and Sangguniang Bayan for municipalities, which are composed of councilors elected at-large or in some cases, by Sanggunian district.
[edit] BarangaysCities (both component and independent ones) and municipalities are further divided into barangays. The barangay is the smallest political unit. In some populous cities, barangays are grouped into zones and/or into districts for administrative purposes. In rural areas, sitios or puroks are the preferred ways of subdividing barangays for administrative purposes. Each barangay is headed by a barangay captain.

Across Israel, Meir Panim responds to the growing needs of the country's 1.75 million impoverished residents through various food and social service programs.
Satmar is one of the largest and leading chassidishe communities. What happens in Satmar is closely followed by the entire chassidishe world. No Satmar home is permitted to have Internet access. Children from homes with Internet access are not accepted into any Satmar school. Business Internet usage outside of the home must be filtered. Computer kiosks have been established where individuals can conduct private and business Internet usage 24/6 at minimal cost. Of course, the kiosks are filtered and computer screens are fully viewable and monitored at all times by appointed chassidishe managers.
Several pages in the Satmar weekly newspaper were recently devoted broadsides and articles promoting the rally. The Satmar Rebbe, however, did not call on his followers to attend the rally, nor did he prohibit participation.
Speculation focuses on the possibility that the Rebbe, seeking to conform to the conduct of the Divrei Yoel, founder of Satmar, chooses not to attend any event where foreign languages, i.e. English, might be spoken. Further, with yeshivish and Modern Orthodox participation, not everything discussed or formulated would be necessarily acceptable to the hashgacha of the Satmar community.

Reader Q&A: Dan Pompei's Bears mailbag
Story | May 29, 2013 | 7:56 AMThe Bears' starting front four is going to be a force this season and hopefully for years to come, but after the starters the roster doesn't look so great. I'm wondering, what percentage of snaps the starters are expected to play and how important it is to have great depth on the D-line? And how do you feel about the young developmental guys on the roster? -- D.J., Bloomington, Ind.

Someone new is on MySpace, more details to come later... but its URL is:
Add them!
Went early last night to get in line for the MySpace BlackCarpet screening of "Borat: Cultural Learnings of America for Make Benefit Glorious Nation of Kazakhstan." I got there at around 6:30p, for an event with doors opening at 9, and the movie supposedly starting at 10p. But I'm a huge Borat fan, so it seemed a good way to see the movie more than a month before it hits theaters.
Seems like school (or something) has stirred up a lot of angst on the site lately. People upset at the behavior of friends, reactions of their peers, problems with their parents, and so on...
I just finished (like 10 minutes ago) reading the book "Inspiration" by Wayne Dyer, and found it to be profoundly moving and resonant. In the book, he referenced a parable about carrots, eggs, and coffee that made me think of Oasis and how people react and get so riled up by their interactions with people. A quick Google search spared me from having to type it in. It's definitely worth thinking about...
Can anyone else successfully add YouTube content? Roll call... may need Adrian to enable some permissions or something...
from now on (or until adrian tells me this is a security risk), you can now copy the "Embed" url from YouTube and paste it directly into your Oasis post, so people can watch YouTube content without having to leave Oasis...
It is going to get strange around here...
Always amusing, and it isn't the first time this has happened, but I decided to search on Camille Paglia's opinions on a specific topic and the first link AND the answer to the question I had was found in Oasis:
Worth a read, as I still find her fascinating... and
Lance Bass, the former 'N Sync heartthrob, reveals that he is gay, in an exclusive interview with PEOPLE.
"I knew that I was in this popular band and I had four other guys' careers in my hand, and I knew that if I ever acted on it or even said (that I was gay), it would overpower everything," says Bass, referring to bandmates Joey Fatone, Chris Kirkpatrick, JC Chasez and Justin Timberlake.
"I didn't know: Could that be the end of 'N Sync? So I had that weight on me of like, 'Wow, if I ever let anyone know, it's bad.' So I just never did," he says speaking about his sexual orientation for the first time with PEOPLE.
Now, after years of keeping his personal life private, the Mississippi-bred, Southern Baptist-reared Bass, 27, is publicly revealing what he first shared with his friends, then his shocked family.
It's not as dirty as it sounds. A "fisking" on Andrew's site is when he takes the text of an article and speech and intercuts it with his opinion of pointing out how they are twisting words to their advantage. As such, a podfisk, is that same practice done in audio/podcast form.
It is available here, and worth a listen:

So, in my book, the main character documents all the things he plans to do now that he's changed his life. The length of the list will also show how long it has been on hold up until this point.
In any event, feel free to reply with additional goals that can be added to this list. Nothing sexuality-related, though. It's not that kind of book.
Here is the excerpt:
"I will take up yoga… go hiking, go out dancing, dress better, decorate the apartment, get a master's degree, buy a house, join a local sports team, have a relationship, go to Europe, go to fancy restaurants, learn to like red wine, read classic books, go scuba diving, pay attention to politics, learn a new language, go away for a weekend, make new friends, get a massage, take vacations, donate to charity, get a new car, write a short story, go camping, learn to cook, shop for clothes, walk on the beach, try absinthe, plant a garden, see a foreign film, swim, lift weights, become passionate about a hobby, go to an amusement park, get a pet, take a photography class, figure out my spiritual path, go to the beach, act in a play, make a web site, go skiing, volunteer for a good cause, buy a mountain bike, pay it forward, run a marathon, start a band, take up painting…"
Hey everyone,
As a lot of people on the site are into music and such, thought I'd pass along a new out musician that seems worth supporting, Laura Wolfe.
You can hear her music at www.myspace.com/laurawolfe
Here is some of her marketing copy:
"In her lyrics, Laura strongly expresses her views on pushing the edges of prescribed gender roles and appearances for women. In the title track, "Siren,
Excerpted from today's entry on my blog. Just posting this here for whatever reason:
On a few hours sleep, I had lunch Saturday with Anthony Rapp, in town to promote his new book and do an acoustic show at the Swedish American Music Hall. Once again, the bears made me nervous as every brunch place on my way to Nirvana was overflowing with lines onto the sidewalk, but apparently, Nirvana was too healthy for the bears, and I got my pick of tables. Anthony and I had the longest conversation of the time we have known one another, and it was certainly enlightening.

Recent reviews:
December 7, 2013 - Yes, it is orangey-red, but gorgeous. Looks like drops of fire. Goes perfectly with the "Campfire" tie-die spirit top and the Bengali sublimation tunic.
August 24, 2013 - I ordered this necklace on 7/25/13. It was on sale for $2.99. It's very pretty, but few of the beads are actually red. They are mostly orange. If you want a red and orange necklace, order away! If you want a red necklace, this is probably not your best bet.
Artisan: Tara Projects
"We can live the life we want, without cultural restraints. We feel empowered, like there's nothing we can't do. The factors keeping us oppressed are gone thanks to Tara."
Artisan Shaista
Tara Projects is a fair trade organization based in New Delhi, India. The project seeks to help craftspeople gain awareness, rights and human dignity in order to combat poverty. Tara provides women and men with economic security through regular work at living wages, craft training and marketing services.
Founded in the early seventies with the goal of providing avenues of economic growth to economically disadvantaged artisans in Delhi, Tara has become a pillar of the fair trade community in India. Since its inception, Tara Projects has been committed to fighting exploitation, poverty, and illiteracy of artisans who are subjected to the social injustices of unfair trade practices. Besides training artisans in design, production and marketing of handicrafts, Tara also funds and maintains several adult literacy and vocational training centers, and has spearheaded numerous campaigns for ecological, environmental and female educational issues, and against child and bonded labor, illiteracy, and unfair trade practices.
Artisan Sushma
Sushma lives in New Delhi, India with her husband and two sons. Five years ago, a family illness forced her to leave school. Sushma found Tara Projects and began working there, immediately receiving a fair wage and steady employment. Sushma works 5-6 hours a day and supplements her husband's income to sustain their family. She pays for her children's school fees, food and clothing. Sushma says, "I am happy that I do not have to earn this money by spending many hours laboring in a factory. We do not have to borrow money from the money lender. I am thankful that Tara Projects gives us work."
Artisan Rachna
Rachna had to leave school just before the 12th grade because her parents were in an accident. As the eldest child, she had to work in a factory to support her younger siblings. Fortunately her father is now able to work again. Her husband does not have a permanent job and doesn't earn enough to support them and their two young children. Rachna heard about Tara Projects and that they were supportive of women. She went through their training program and has now worked with them for 7 years. She is happy she has her own income to add to her husband's. "Life has certainly become better, it is dignified work. With the money I earn I am able to help my children with their studies and other important needs. I am also saving money every month. Fair trade helps those who need it. I am happy that Tara Projects gives us work and supports us."

Starbucks gets its buzz back as City sales soar
Rise in popularity in US copied in UK, where City outlets help revenues jump 5 per cent
The rehabilitation of the US coffee chain Starbucks gathered pace yesterday when it disclosed forecast-beating profits for the past three months. The company said that cost cutting and a spike in popularity in America had helped it to a better-than-expected profit of $217m (£141m) for the quarter ending 28 March, compared with just $25m in the same period last year.
The figures were boosted by an increase in customer numbers, the first rise for 13 quarters. Revenues jumped 9 per cent to $2.53bn, up from $2.33bn a year ago.
"Starbucks' second-quarter results demonstrate the impact of innovation and the success of our efforts to dramatically transform our business over the last two years," Howard Schultz, the founder of Starbucks who returned as chief executive in 2008, said.
The results demonstrate a remarkable turnaround for the group, which as recently as two years ago was struggling after overly ambitious expansion plans misfired.
Speaking in London three months ago, as Starbucks reported its then best results for two years, Mr Schultz said: "We have now come through what was a cataclysmic and brutal economic crisis to deliver a record quarter. From our point of view, continued innovation, the successful enhancement of the consumer experience and a transformed, more-efficient cost structure have brought Starbucks to a significant milestone – a return to profitable growth."
Part of the improvement has come as a result of the ubiquitous chain shedding thousands of jobs and closing hundreds of underperforming coffee shops.
Starbucks has also enjoyed a strong second-quarter performance in the UK, saying that revenues in Britain and Ireland were up by 5 per cent on the same period last year. The group said that it had seen particularly good trading in its City and Canary Wharf outlets in London, underscoring the theory that a recovery in the financial services jobs market is well under way.
"At the start of the recession these branches were hard hit, but they have come back strongly – they are now part of the strongest region of the UK," said Darcy Wilson-Rymer, the managing director of Starbucks UK.
A spokesman said that the group would open 50 new shops in the UK this year, although the overall number will remain broadly flat after the group lost 35 outlets when the Borders chain of bookshops closed last year.
During the past three months, the company has launched its range of Via instant coffee in the UK, which it is selling throughout its coffee shops and other outlets. Mr Wilson-Rymer said that the company has also signed a deal with Thomas Cook airlines to provide Via on its flights. The UK arm of the business already had an agreement with Welcome Break to supply Starbucks coffee at motorway service stations.
"Customers are still looking for value, and they told us that they wanted to be rewarded for loyalty," said Mr Wilson-Rymer. "Our response is now paying off. Customers are also looking for better coffee at home, at work or on holiday, which is why Starbucks Via represents such a big opportunity."
This is not the first time the group has made an assertion about the quality of the Via range.
In January the group was forced to withdraw a claim that the Food Standards Agency (FSA) had barred Starbucks from describing Via as instant coffee because, Starbucks said, the quality of the coffee was too high. The claim was made repeatedly during a meeting with reporters that was chaired by Mr Schultz.
The FSA said that it had given no such advice, adding that "we have not spoken to Starbucks at all about this product". A press officer for Starbucks later admitted that the claim was false.
"There is actually no issue with the FSA regarding Via, or its quality," he said.

Suicide blast in Syrian capital kills at least 15
Suicide blast in Syrian capital kills at least 15
DAMASCUS, Syria — A suicide car bomber struck Monday in the financial heart of Syria's capital, killing at least 15 people, damaging the nearby central bank and incinerating cars and trees in the neighborhood.
The attack was the latest in a recent series of bombings to hit Damascus in the civil war, slowly closing in on President Bashar Assad's base of power in the capital. Rebel fighters have chipped away at the regime's hold in northern and eastern Syria, as well as making significant gains in the south, helped in part by an influx of foreign-funded weapons.

Other firms understood to have pitched for the business include Shoosmiths and Van Damm Walters, a small firm based in Fleet Street, which previously acted on CTC's panel and carried out approximately 50 per cent of the work.This is the first time that CTC has appointed a sole adviser. The loss will come as a blow to Van Damm, which has since shut its personal injury practice.The win will bring considerable work to Russell Jones, as CTC provides free legal services to its members, handling upwards of 500 cases a year.Peter Jackson, operations manager at CTC, said: "We were also looking for innovative funding arrangements and additional value-added services that we may want to take up in the future."He added: "Russell Jones also suggested effective ways in which we can exploit the advantages that collective conditional fee agreements offer CTC and its members."

Booked this hotel thru Hotel .com and got a great discount.We arrived at the train station and had loads and loads of luggage.Tried to take a taxi but was told that the hotel was very near , we showed our taxi driver our luggage , he smiled and kindly took us in.He did not speak English much but understood us when we asked him to show us around the town and he took us to the Lion Monument and waited for us while we took some pictures.
Arrived at the hotel , check in was fast . I noticed it was a modern-chic hotel with nice design. The lift was big !
The room was quite small but was beautifully decorated and had everything in -place. It was very clean and in immaculate condition.
what I liked most about this hotel was the breakfast! It was plentiful and my little boy was given fullest attention by the staff, hot chocolates, cookies, chocolates were sent to our table by the staff.
This hotel was perfectly located in Lucerne.it was actually 2 minutes walk to the station and the escalator going up from the station came right to the hotel cafe!
We stayed 2 days at this hotel .There was a festival at the town at night and we had a great time at the carnival with a lot of rides which my son enjoyed.We finally saw locals of Lucerne and noticed that everybody was dressed up beautifully for the carnival.It was already late at night and we felt very safe walking around the town.This hotel was also within a walking distance to the bridge and to the boat ride for the PIlatus trip.It was very convenient and we really enjoyed our stay.

Make life around the campsite just a little bit more comfortable with this Easy Camp Tipi Tent ($150). Built as a modern take on an old-school teepee, this tent features a single pole through the center for support, with plenty of guy lines all around adding structure. Its hexagonal design gives it additional strength, while allowing it to accommodate up to four sleepers (or a whole lot of gear). Taped seams keep things nice and dry, while mesh prevents unwanted bugs and other pests, and fire-retardant polyester construction keeps you safe in case of a mishap.
Not everyone needs (or even wants) a full-fledged RV when they take to the road, and for some, even a small towable trailer is overkill. For the guy who doesn't need much, but still wants the comfort and security of an enclosed space to rest his head, there's the Firefly Trailer ($TBA). Designed and built by a former NASA architect who specializes in small habitats (and being sold by the company behind the unique Cricket Trailer) , this lightweight aluminum living space drops easily into the bed of a pickup truck. It features a folding couch perfect for sleeping and sitting, plenty of storage space to hold your essentials, and lunar-lander-like legs to keep it safely off the ground.
Just because you're sleeping outdoors doesn't mean you have to live like some kind of wild animal — step up your campground game and become king of the wilderness in this gigantic Safari Tent ($2,000). At ten feet by twelve feet, this tent is so big you may never miss the comforts of home. You'll have plenty of space for your inflatable mattress, all the gear you could ever need, and even a few (or eight) of your closest friends. With a nylon cordura outer skin and an aluminum inner frame, it can handle nearly anything mother nature throws at it, while the massive interior space will let you stand up while you wait out the storm.
There's nothing quite like a nip of the good stuff to keep off the cold during a long Fall hike or run down the bunny hills — and there's no better way to discreetly stow it than the Stanley Adventure eCycle Flask ($20). It's leak proof, so you never have to worry about waste, or spilling on your expensive outdoor gear. A two-stage lid makes cleaning and filling a breeze, while still making it easy to take a quick pull. And with a 12-ounce capacity, you can forget about running out at inopportune times (like getting stuck on a chair lift).
If you have one of those cheap plastic water filters that leave black flakes in your water, it's time for an upgrade. The Soma Water Filter combines good looks with impeccable functionality. Soma pairs a custom made glass carafe with a filter composed of all natural materials: coconut shells, silk, and a plant-based casing. The result is water that tastes noticeably better. Want your filters mailed directly to you when it's time to change them? Soma does that, too. And if that's not enough, for every filter sold, Soma donates clean drinking water to people in need through its partnership with charity: water. Cheers to great design, and great tasting water.
At some point outdoor gear and menswear collided to form the sort of rustic aesthetic that simultaneously shouts stylish and rugged — and the byproduct of that meeting looks something like this Dick van Hoff x Thomas Eyck Lunch Set ($300). While it's a steep price to pay to be prepared for a day on the trail and to look damn good doing it, there's no doubt it will last for years to come thanks to its fine leather and aluminum construction. So pack up your Pendleton bed roll, throw on your rawest pair of selvage jeans, and get ready to be the best-dressed guy at the trailhead. Just don't forget to pack a lunch.
When the white death approaches, defy your strongest urges to hole up with a warm blanket, slippers, and a space heater and dig your way out into the world with the Snow Joe Ion Cordless Snow Blower ($400). It features a heavy-duty 2-blade rubber auger that's capable of clearing an 18-inch-wide path through snow up to ten inches deep. It's also cord and gas free, so you can run it for as long as 40 minutes on a single charge, without ever having to worry about priming, tune-ups, extension cords, or noisy two-stroke motors. So while everyone else is griping about what a pain winter weather is, you'll be out enjoying the simple beauty of a freshly-fallen snow.
We've all been there at least once. You're on a camping trip, or hanging out around a fire in a friend's backyard, and you want to cook something over those hot coals — whether it's a marshmallow, a hotdog, or a squirrel. In order to get it done you have to either already have a skewer on hand, or you need to find the perfect stick and whittle it down to a proper point. But with Grandpa's FireFork ($7), you can leave all that hassle in the past. This single piece of sharpened stainless steel wire securely fastens to nearly any stick, instantly making it the perfect cooking tool. Its convenient carrying case prevents poked fingers, comes in a range of colors, and features a hole at the top that's perfect for attaching a lanyard.
Wearable technology is becoming increasingly common, making our devices easier to use and the information we have access to more useful than ever. The Oakley Airwave 1.5 Goggle ($650) features a unique heads-up display, delivering data unobtrusively to your field of view every time you hit the slopes. With Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and GPS integration, you can control your music, analyze your speed and distance, determine the temperature, and even find your next run while you're on the move. You'll perceive the data in your goggles as if you were looking at a 14-inch screen five feet away, so you won't need to refocus your vision as you're moving. It's the perfect way to access all the information you need when you ski or snowboard, without the need to ever touch your smartphone.
If you're serious about backpacking, camping, or disaster preparedness, and you just can't imagine going on without a functional smartphone or tablet, then the Brunton Hydrogen Reactor ($150) is the portable recharging solution for you. This device doesn't rely on energy from an outlet to get its juice. Instead the hydrogen from its removable and rechargeable cores combines with oxygen from the atmosphere to create power on the spot, producing no emissions other than a puff of water vapor. The reactor is just over five inches long, weighs only half a pound, and can charge an iPhone through its built in USB port up to six times without needing a replaced or recharged core.
Carry everything you need to cook a complete meal in one portable unit with the BioLite KettlePot ($50). Made to work in tandem with the BioLite camping stove, this combination kettle and pot lets you pour hot liquids and cook food. The BioLite stove collapses and fits inside the pot, saving space in your pack. A silicone seal keeps the pouring top on securely, while silicone-insulated folding handles make it safe to carry. It's also made from food-safe stainless steel that's easy to clean and won't contaminate your food.
It doesn't matter if your idea of an autumn adventure involves hiking a state of the Appalachian Trail, or just braving rush-hour traffic on your daily commute — the Stanley Adventure Bottle ($TBA) is your ideal companion. This versatile, multi-use bottle has a stainless steel screw-off bottom, that works as a cup, and has graduated markings for measurement, and a tapered bottom for your car's cup holder. And at under a half a pound, you'll barely feel it in your bag.
Upgrade your tailgating experience this football season with freshly-cooked pizza, using the Pizzeria Pronto Outdoor Pizza Oven ($300). This propane-powered, highly-portable pizza oven can reach temperatures of up to 700 degrees, and preheats in only ten minutes, so you can cook up plenty of pizza in no time. It features a dual-layer pizza stone that heats evenly, so your pizza gets evenly-baked every time, while a moisture vent ensures great, crisp crust. It's also easy to clean, assembles and disassembles in just minutes, and includes just about everything you need to start cooking (except the gas).

Something actually about football, Ben Herd has talked about the hurt of relegation.
Speaking to the official site Ben Herd has talked about how much it hurts him and the players to have blown five years in League Two after being relegated back to the Conference and he admits only the team have themselves to blame.
'It's the worst feeling you've ever experienced, it's just horrible. I can't really put it into words. So many people at the club deserve better and they've been let down.'
Herd continues to say that as a team and as individuals it just wasn't good enough this season, and that was not something he contemplated when he agreed to stay last term.

It is a simple and great product! It is very light and it would not rust. All you have to consider is the correct thickness of the string... Great money for value!

Update: January 2014 springs wear out easy, lost my FAVOURITE special key chain that family got me and is irreplaceable, also lost my house key :-(. I have gotten rid of this one and will find another that doesn't loose my valuables and pose a risk. Loosing house keys or car keys is BAD! Poses a big risk for them being found by someone else and a break in/ theft occurring. Old review: Excellent ...

Very good. Nice blue color. It's perfect for my keys :)

Not bad.
That was good except, I couldent understand what they where saying have the times. I liked how you tried to add humor, but none of it was funny. Next time, maybe instead of say Reconstruction or Amateur Footage, just try puttind Dramatization. All above, I thought that was very good.

Morgantown, WV (Sports Network) - Led by 21 points and nine rebounds from Romero Osby, the Oklahoma Sooners downed the West Virginia Mountaineers, 67-57, at WVU Coliseum in the Big 12 opener for both clubs.
For the Sooners (10-3, 1-0 Big 12), Steven Pledger added 12 points.
Terry Henderson paced the Mountaineers (7-6, 0-1) with 21 points, while Jabarie Hinds chipped in with 11 points and Juwan Staten finished with 10 points to go along with seven assists.
Though they only connected on 35.5 percent of their field goal attempts to open the contest, the Mountaineers drained 9-of-19 from beyond the 3-point arc as they took a 35-29 lead into halftime. Oklahoma shot 43.3 percent from the field in the first half, but just 2-of-6 from 3-point range.
In the second half, the Mountaineers continued to struggle from the field, shooting just 24.1 percent. But unlike the first half, they had no success from long distance, making only 2-of-11 from 3-point range. The Sooners improved to 45.2 percent on their field goal attempts, though they too had trouble from deep, making only 2-of-9 on their 3-point attempts.
WVU opened the second half on an 8-2 run to push their advantage to 13 at 43-31. Oklahoma responded, reeling off 18 of the next 23 points to take a 49-48 lead with just over nine minutes to play. After the Mountaineers pulled back ahead 52-49, the Sooners had the final run of the game and held the Mountaineers to just five points over the final five minutes, grabbing the victory and handing WVU the loss in its first-ever Big 12 contest.
The Sooners dominated the Mountaineers in the paint, outscoring them 30-10. Oklahoma also had the edge in second chance points, 15-8.

Four years after it was completed Terry Serepisos' IBM Tower in Petone could soon finally have enough tenants to make it a saleable proposition for company receiver David Ruscoe.
The eight-storey block - the only A grade office building in the Hutt Valley - was one of the last major developments to be completed before Serepisos was bankrupted in 2011.
Most of the 9000 square metres of office space has been vacant since construction was completed in 2009.
Serepisos leased two floors to IBM and half the eighth floor to Scientific Software and Systems before he was bankrupted.
The receiver was left with the job of finding tenants for the remaining 6000sqm of office space to realise the property's potential and maximise its resale value.
One 1300sqm floor was leased just before Christmas to Steel and Tube and CBRE leasing specialist Matt Hince said he was hoping to secure another tenant.
He had also heard another floor may be filled shortly.
Ruscoe, a partner in Grant Thornton, said there was good interest in the three floors that were still available and they were getting good competitive leasing rates.
In his last six-monthly report, in November, Ruscoe said the plan was to market the properties "once the leasing opportunities have been fully tested and we believe it is the best time in the market to obtain the best sale price".
Commenting last week, he said: "We're getting to the position where it is saleable and we will be looking at some stage this year to put it on the market."
Even fully tenanted, the property is unlikely to fetch anything approaching the debts secured against it.
Serepisos' Century City Ventures borrowed $76 million against the IBM complex, which includes the new office block at 25 Victoria St and the neighbouring old IBM building on the Petone Esplanade.
The 2010 rating values of the two properties was $26.6m.
The first mortgage alone, advanced by the Bank of Scotland International (Australia), was for $58m. That mortgage is now held by Brookfield NZ Finance and Brookfield RETIP Australia after BOS's troubled huge loan portfolio was bought by Goldman Sachs.
Another $18m is owed to the second secured creditor, failed South Canterbury Finance. Ruscoe advised there were unlikely to be any funds available to repay this loan.
Another former Serepisos property, the Farmers building in Cuba St, is also still under the control of the receiver.
It was put on the market last year with the adjoining former Deka building on the corner of Cuba and Dixon streets. The Deka building was sold to Willis Bond for $12m and plans are now being prepared for a redevelopment of that 4000-square-metre block.
But the Farmers building failed to sell.
Ruscoe said Farmers had another six years to run on its lease and he was looking at options for the property. These could include strengthening the present shop or completely redeveloping the site, which runs through to Victoria St.
The Farmers property has been assessed as being more valuable than the Deka block because its lease is returning a net annual income of $1.65m.
Ruscoe said he hoped to retain Farmers as a tenant and was looking at all the options before making it available for sale.
