Killer culture? Blaming guns again
Here we go again. A high-profile shooting prompts ignorant people to blame guns for murder. When are we going to learn?
After Kansas City Chiefs linebacker Jovan Belcher shot his girlfriend to death and then killed himself, NBC Sports commentator Bob Costas read on-air during a Sunday football game portions of a column by sportswriter Jason Whitlock, who wrote, "If Jovan Belcher didn't possess a gun, he and Kasandra Perkins would both be alive today."
Right, because 228-pound linebackers cannot possibly kill women without using firearms. Also, if "the real killer" didn't possess a knife, Nicole Simpson and Ron Goldman would be alive today.
Costas made things worse by explaining his comments. On MSNBC he said, "What I was talking about here - and I'm sorry if that wasn't clear to everybody - was a gun culture. It demonstrates itself in the Wild West, Dirty Harry mentality of people who actually believe that if a number of people were armed in the theater in Aurora, they would have been able to take down this nutjob in body armor and military-style artillery."
About the "gun culture," since 2006, gun sales in Virginia rose by 73 percent, the Richmond Times-Dispatch reported last month. In the same period, crime dropped by 25 percent. The "gun culture" does not kill people. Crazy, disturbed and evil people who are better armed than their victims do.

Chris Bohjalian: Bonus WD Interview Outtakes
Chris Bohjalian moves through the world as a writer. His honest answer to that quintessential question Where do you get your ideas? could be summed up in one word: everywhere. His novels have been born from a dinner party, a wartime diary, a homeless man's photography, and more than one fortuitous bike ride, though it's not unusual for those ideas to percolate for years before they start to take form. And just as he might not have a defining moment when a story begins, he doesn't keep the world at bay once he starts writing, either. In fact, he invites it in—often stopping mid-scene to go in search of new inspiration through hands-on research. Read more

Raspberry Swirl Sweet Rolls.
Soft & fluffy sweet roll dough filled with juicy raspberries and drizzled with glaze.
A little warning: photo overload coming your way today.
I made, what I consider, the most perfect breakfast sweet roll over the weekend and I am so very excited to share them with you today. Not only were they fun to photograph, they were SO incredible to eat and enjoy. And not only for breakfast.
Juicy, sticky, fluffy, sweet heaven.
Kevin's mom and I spent our Friday night making sweet rolls. I've told you before, I'm a boring gal, but I really couldn't think of a more perfect way to spend my evening after a long workweek. We decorated a Christmas tree and waited for the sweet rolls to rise. It was perfection.
I got this recipe from the Food & Wine website a few months ago, pinned it, and never quite mustered up the time and energy to make the yeasted roll myself. As we were kneading, rolling, cutting, and of course – taste-testing, I couldn't help but kick myself in the butt. Why did I wait so long to make these? They are SO fluffy, tender, soft, and oozing with sweet raspberry goo in every bite.
I trust that you'll be smarter than I am and dash to your kitchen right now to begin.
*Be sure to read the whys and the why nots of this recipe if you are looking to make the rolls yourself:
To begin, warm up some milk. I did so on low heat over the stovetop until the milk was lukewarm – be careful not to scald the milk. I didn't use a thermometer, but if you choose to do so, aim for roughly 95F degrees. Pour the milk into a bowl of your stand mixer fitted with a hook attachment. Add your yeast and 2/3 cup of sugar. Stir it a little bit, cover, and walk away. You are testing your yeast to prove that it is alive and active with this first step.
I checked the bowl about 10 minutes later, after I finished gathering the other ingredients for the rolls. If the yeast/sugar/milk solution has become frothy or bubbly, you have your "proof" that the yeast is alive. If not, the yeast is a dud. Toss it out and start over again with a new batch of active dry yeast. Our yeast was ready and good to go.
With the mixer running, add your softened butter – be sure it is not melted or too hard. Crack 2 large eggs, add them one at a time, then a touch of salt. Let the mixer run for a bit. Manually scrape down the sides and stir by hand as needed. Next, slowly add the flour. Little by little. Mix for up to 10 minutes on medium high speed until a soft dough forms. I thought my mixer was going to break down as it jostled about for 10 minutes! Luckily, we were fine.
For the amount of flour: the recipe states 4.25 – 4.5 cups. I used 4 and 1/2 cups because the dough was much too sticky with only 4 and 1/4 cup. In fact, after 10 minutes in the stand mixer, I kneaded the dough by hand on a floured surface for about two minutes because I still felt it was much too sticky. To test the dough's readiness, poke the dough with your finger and if it springs back, it is good to go. After mixing for 10 minutes and then kneading by hand on a floured surface, the dough was ready to rise.
Form the dough into a ball, and place in a lightly greased bowl. Cover with a dish towel and set in a warm place, until it doubles in size. We had the stove on earlier from warming up the milk, so we placed the bowl on the flat electric stove-top and went to decorate the tree as we waited. If you make these in the summer time, be sure it is not an overly humid day as the air's moisture will have a negative affect on the dough's rising. The dough took about 1.5 hours to practically double in size. It was squishy and so soft!
Get your baking pan ready. I used a 9×13 baking pan, your standard size cake pan, and lined it with parchment paper. I sprayed the parchment paper with nonstick spray so the rolls could easily be removed.
Get your roll on. Break out your rolling pin (and your ruler!) and roll that glorious ball of dough into a 10×24 inch rectangle on a generously floured surface. Oh geez. I completely underestimated this size before we got out the ruler! Trust me, it will roll out into a rectangle this large. Make sure the dough is completely uniform in thickness and a precisely 10×24 inches in size.
Mix frozen raspberries with a touch of cornstarch and sugar. Frozen – yes, frozen. Fresh raspberries will be much too juicy and delicate for the filling, which is perfect since they are not in their prime this time of year. Frozen berries are the way to go – try blueberries or cherries instead. Pour the cold sugared raspberries over the large dough rectangle and tightly roll up. I thought the rolling was the most fun. :)
Using your sharpest knife, cut into 16 rolls. This means the rolls were precisely 1.5 inches in thickness. Stuff the rolls into your baking pan, 4 in each row, leaving space between each one so they have room to expand. Some rolls will be more tightly compacted since the pan is longer than it is wide. That's ok, I promise.
Cover your baking pan and store in a warm place once again.
More waiting time – about 2 hours. That's ok, there really isn't much "work time" with this recipe – just more "wait time." This worked out well since we had other things to keep us busy. Like making dinner and detangling 100,000 Christmas lights.
You may also use your wait time and sleep – allow your ball of dough in the first step or your cut up rolls in the second step, to rise overnight. Just keep them at room temperature either time and you'll be good to go.
In this step, be prepared for the berries to release their juices. The bottom of your pan will be FULL of a glorious sweet red raspberry juice, only to be absorbed in the baking process. It turns into an incredible sticky raspberry glaze over the bottom of the rolls. Love.
Bake time!
The rolls only take about 25 minutes in the oven. Be sure to cover your rolls with foil – it didn't state this in the original recipe, but this is crucial to prevent the tops of your rolls from getting too brown. I covered my rolls about halfway through the baking process; the next time I make these, they will be covered the entire time in the oven. The recipe also states 425F degrees. WAY too hot for my rolls. Go for 400F here.
The smell. Oh my lanta, the SMELL of these rolls baking is pure bread oblivion. Your kitchen has just turned into a bakery and the only thing on the menu are sweet rolls. While I adore the smell of my candied pecans baking, nothing compares to fresh sweet rolls in the oven. WOW.
Cool your rolls, in the pan, on a wire rack for about 15 minutes. I cooled mine overnight so they'd be ready for their glaze shower first thing in the morning.
Make your glaze. Mmm. That glorious glaze. A simple combination of heavy cream and powdered sugar. Nothing else. Feel free to use half-and-half or milk. With either half-and-half or milk, keep in mind it you may need more sugar than I used to get the glaze to be as thick and creamy.
Shower those rolls with the sweet stuff.
Serve the rolls warm. I froze a few of mine (without glaze) to warm up and enjoy on Christmas morning. My mom was so excited to see a picture when I sent one to her of the finished rolls. She cannot wait to taste one!
I cannot tell you enough how incredible these rolls truly are. The wait time, about 4 hours total, is a bit tedious but not too bad if you have other things to do around the house or let the rolls rise overnight to bake in the morning. Yeast, an ingredient requiring a ton of patience, is so worth it. There is quite simply nothing like a from-scratch, sweet, doughy roll first thing in the morning.
The rolls are tender and fluffy, so soft and springy with each bite. And so darn puffy! Simply put, imagine the softest dinner roll you've ever tasted. Make them a little sweeter, add some sticky raspberries and creamy glaze and you can imagine what I'm trying to describe here.
I cannot even WAIT to make these into orange rolls, or use this recipe and make a caramel pecan filling. Or a simple cinnamon/sugar/butter filling. I just cleared the store shelves from yeast over the weekend so I can get crackin' on all my sweet roll plans.
An important closing note: if the ball of dough does not rise, the yeast was dead, not the recipe!
Raspberry Swirl Sweet Rolls
Fluffy, sticky, & sweet raspberry rolls. Follow my easy directions and become a master at sweet roll making!
Yield: 16 rolls
Prep Time: 30 minutes
Total Time: 4 hours or overnight
- 1 cup (120ml) milk
- 2/3 cup (67g) granulated sugar
- 1 and 1/2 tablespoons active dry yeast (2 standard size packets)
- 1/2 cup (1 stick or 115g) unsalted butter, softened to room temperature
- 2 large eggs
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 4 and 1/2 cups (562g) all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting/rolling
- One 10-oz. package frozen raspberries (NOT thawed)
- 1/4 cup plus 2 Tablespoons (80g) granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon cornstarch
- 1 cup (120g) confectioners' sugar
- 3 Tablespoons (30ml) heavy cream (or half-and-half or milk)
Make The Dough: In a small saucepan, warm the milk over low heat until lukewarm (no need to use a thermometer, but to be precise: about 95 degrees F). Pour the warm milk into the bowl of a stand electric mixer fitted with the dough hook attachment and manually stir in the sugar and yeast. Cover with a towel and let stand until the yeast is foamy, about 5-10 minutes. Add the softened butter, eggs, and salt. Scrape down the sides and manually stir as needed. Gradually add the flour and beat at medium speed until a soft dough forms. Increase speed to medium-high and beat until the dough is soft and supple, about 10 minutes longer. *If you do not have a stand-mixer with a hook attachment, knead the dough by hand in this step.
Transfer the dough to a lightly floured surface and knead it with your hands for about 2 minutes. Form the dough into a ball and transfer it to a lightly greased bowl. Cover the dough and let sit in a warm place until doubled in size, 1 to 2 hours.
Line the bottom of a 9x13 inch baking dish with parchment paper,leaving room on the sides. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured work surface and, using a rolling in, roll into a 10x24 inch rectangle. I used a ruler for accuracy. Make sure the dough is smooth and evenly thick, even at the corners.
Make The Filling: In a medium bowl, toss the frozen raspberries with the sugar and cornstarch. Spread the cold sugared raspberries evenly over the dough. Tightly roll up the dough to form a 24-inch-long log. Cut into 16 even rolls (about 1.5 inches in width each). Arrange them in the prepared baking pan, cut sides up. Cover the rolls and let them rise in a warm place until they are puffy, about 2 hours. The berries will release their juice at the bottom of the pan - this is OK.
Preheat the oven to 400F degrees. Cover the rolls with aluminum foil and bake for about 25 minutes, until they are golden and the berries are bubbling. Transfer the pan to a rack to cool for about 15 minutes.
Make The Glaze: In a small bowl, whisk the confectioner's sugar and heavy cream until smooth. Add more sugar or cream, depending how thick you want the glaze. Pour glaze over the rolls and serve warm.
Make Ahead: During the second rise, cover the sliced rolls and let sit overnight at room temperature before baking. Baked rolls can be frozen up to 2 months and warmed up to enjoy at a later date. Glaze right before serving.

I will definately have to try putting fruit in my rolls. They look FABULOUS!
I used to have a problem with things rising since I keep my house kinda cool & there really isn't a lot of sunlight that comes in. Then I read somewhere that using a heating pad under your dough/pan really helps. Boy, does it! I've never had a problem with *yeasty* delights again.
Seriously Sally! You will be the end of me…I really want to try these with blueberries! Every year I must have wild Michigan blueberries in my freezer to get me through each year. If I can't get up there to pick them myself, I'll pay my sisters to pick them for me.
Mixed berry would also be dang good…
These look beyond amazing!
Homemade sweet rolls of all kinds are amazing. I love that fresh fruit is in these and that they are flexible and could include just about any fresh fruit. Totally agree on covering the rolls. Flour Bakery's famous sticky buns are amazing (I have to share them on my blog soon) but the recipe doesn't call for them to be covered so the first batch got too brown and crunchy for my taste. In my opinion rolls like this just aren't meant to be brown and crunchy.
You did such a fabulous job on these, Sally! I love sweet rolls, and I have been planning to make some for us on Christmas morning (hoping mine turn out as gorgeous as yours!). I LOVE the idea of using raspberries in these. I bet the flavor was phenomenal, and the color!?! Just so vibrant and pretty!
Congrats! You did it! And of all yeasted recipes to try first, you tried a roll, with filling, and one that needs glaze. It would have been too easy for you to just bake a loaf of you know, white bread
So now not only can you make yeast-recipes, you can make filled-rolls, so pretty much, you went from 0 to 60 overnight. CONGRATS! And they're gorgeous. And can you see why now I am hooked and posted like 4 or 5 yeast recipes in Nov? And yes, each recipe is quite epic in itself, i.e. the typing, instructions, waiting time, but the actual workload isn't that bad.
Oh my lanta <— LOL I havent heard that in ages.
And the rolls are stunning. The colors, the GLAZE. The dough, the whole post. Sally, beautiful!
Oh wow, Sally, you've outdone yourself…every one of those pictures is magazine worthy! Seriously, you are so talented! I couldn't possibly pick a favorite because they are all so interesting and unique…but I guess I really REALLY love the third one because I'm partial to geometric patterns and it looks like the most delicious tiling EVER. I LOVE the gorgeous colors too. So many options! Blueberries, blackberries (!), strawberries (!!)…thanks so much!
Oh my, Sally!! Congrats on the sweet roll success! I am always so excited to see a fellow baker succeed in baking with yeast. And… I know these rolls are not the last ones.
Your raspberry version is so adorable and delicious! And what a coincidence: we had cranberry sweet rolls for breakfast today!!
Beautiful pictures as always! xoxo -
I made these today and the dough was perfect. I started by adding 4 c of flour to my mixer and used almost 1/4 c more. The rolls came out too toasty on top and started burning on the bottom. Next time I make them I'll bake them at 375 or 350 and bake them longer. Also I'll add just a little more salt. Thanks for sharing
Made these for Christmas breakfast…and they were so beautiful and so delicious. I chose to splurge and make a butter/cream cheese icing and might add almond somewhere in the recipe next time…Thank you for a great recipe…and, strangely, we thought these tasted better the next day! Some sweet roll recipes don't stay good a few hours after baking…getting dry, etc, but these were just perfect! I'm assuming due to it's rich dough… Thank you! Because two splurgey breakfasts in a row was plenty, I froze the rest. I'll be interested to see how that works….It would probably have been better to freeze them unglazed, but that wasn't an option this time. I'll keep my fingers crossed!
I am about to pop these in the oven… I am new to making yeast dough… Is there a trick to rolling it out evenly and in a rectangle? Also, mine rose so much over night they are bursting out of my baking dish… Is that ok? I'm not sure if I should adjust the baking time or not.. trial and error I guess! Well they smell and look great (even though I can't roll out dough to save my life)
Okay so part 2 of my experience.. baked them at 400 for 25 min and covered them with foil right off the bat. The edges still ended up over browned but the center was still raw and stuck to the foil.. (my oven may have hotspots… It is old and we just moved in a few months ago so I'm still learning it's quirks) Nonetheless, they turned out extremely tasty!
Also, it's just my husband and I and our 2 + 4 year old so the whole batch is a bit much. Would it be possible to freeze half the unbaked rolls to make at another time? If so, how would I bake them when I needed them? (thawed or frozen? Temp and times)
Lastly, this dough is incredible! Do you think you could post something on turning it into coffee cake? (also different variations such as cinnamon sugar, fruit and creamcheese etc) it seems like it would be fantastic but I'm not as baking savvy or creative in the kitchen as I would like
Hey Sally,
I'm a new reader, I first ran into your giant cookie recipe and have yet to try them because I was distracted by THIS recipe! I made a batch last night to bake in the oven this morning and they were delicious! A few notes, I covered mine the whole time with foil and they never browned so I left them for 10 minutes uncovered, so I baked it for 35 minutes. Regardless of the extra time, they were amazing! Thank you for running a lovely blog
- Aspiring Pastry Chef!
Holy moly. Sally, these are AMAZING! My family really enjoyed the cake batter cinnamon rolls last month, and though I was contemplating making your new crumb coffee cake recipe for Mother's Day, I ultimately went with these since I've been drooling over the pictures for weeks. They are every bit as wonderful as I'd hoped! And the aroma as I opened the oven…. ahhhhh! I made them the day before and let them rise overnight, which made for a fantastic breakfast with no work for me on Mother's Day! Thanks so much for all of your outstanding recipes – I only found your blog last month but I am completely hooked.
I have been putting my raspberries from my garden in the freezer just so I could make this recipe. I made your banana raspberry chocolate chip bread – as always, anything I make from this site is a major hit when I share. SO I am going to add some mine-chocolate chips to the raspberry mixture, just before I roll up it up. Bonus – my DH doesn't like raspberries, so I get as much of this as I want, although I am going to take it into work to share. I recommend your site to everyone. I just made a batch of your S'Mores Cookies – again, the DH wasn't impressed (I don't get it) but everyone else loved them.
Hi Sally! I just want to say that we've {my mom & I} have made this recipe twice now… Love Love Love these rolls. What makes them even more special is my Grandma grows homegrown raspberries, so we always have some of "Grandmas Best" in our freezer for the making of these!
Also I just wanted to say a big "THANK YOU" for your posting on starting a food blog…I'm jumping in… I don't know how I should feel… overwhelmed jumping in a sea with all these fish that do something so much better than me…or really really excited that maybe just maybe my food blog will prosper someday!! You have given me hope
Thanks for reading this! Still working on my website but I'm hoping to have it up and running soon! I'd LOVE your constructive criticism when it's up and running!
Thanks again!

My husband bought me a Kitchenaid Mixer for Christmas. He loves Raspberry Sweet Rolls, so as a "thank you" I wanted to make some. I made these today as a test batch and everything turned out great! I used a little more raspberry, but everything else I kept the same. I can't wait to bake these again for my husband when he returns from his trip!
By the way, my husband also loves Golden Oreo cake batter brownies from this website. I can't wait to try other recipes! -
Thank you for the recipe. I'd made them yesterday and they turned out great! I had some red currants from my garden in the freezer, so I used those instead of the raspberries, I also substituted half of the flour with whole spelt, and only made a half batch – 8 rolls. After filling them with the frozen fruit I was really nervous, because nothing happened for more than hour, no rising, just the fruit melting. But then they puffed up in no time and two hours after filling they were ready for the oven and eventually got very big and fluffy and soaked all the juices from the currants! I'm definitely going to make these again, and maybe try another fruit for filling next time
I made these last night and baked them off this morning and they are amazing!!! I used skim milk and a delicious strawberry jam for the filing (that's what I had in the house and wasn't going out in the snow:). They were perfect. I was a little skeptical at keeping them at room temp. all night. I've never sent that before- these kinds of rolls seem to always be refrigerated overnight and then brought to room temperature before baking- but, as I said, perfect! Thank you and can't wait for the cookbook!!!
I made these last night but I used strawberries instead of raspberries and mixed the dough the same way as the easy cinnamon rolls (mix all dry ingredients, microwave butter and milk, then mix together with eggs, etc) and completely skipped the first rise (I was tired haha). They rose overnight and look great – baking right now! The only thing is I may need more strawberries next time. With the rolls risen it doesn't look like there is much between the layers. Thanks for all your delicious recipes Sally!
Thank you, thank you, thank you. I've been eyeing this recipe at Food and Wine, but finally am making it this morning for a coworker's birthday. It's nice to know what changes you've made to it, like covering the tops and lowering the temp. I was concerned about the liquid, but I feel relieved that it gets absorbed. Thanks again! Love your blog.
I recently got a stand mixer, so I'm on a kick making anything I can with it. I made these last night, but let them rise at room temperature overnight, and baked them this morning. They didn't look as pretty as yours, but they tasted amazing. I think they rose too much, and some of them turned sideways in the pan while rising. I also had to bake them an extra 10 minutes so that the center was baked all the way through. Even though they weren't "pretty", I would totally make them again. They were delicious and really easy to make.

Children ARE scary. just look at the some of the fairy tale's they've been hearing since they were small. you think they're normal? just...think about it. The Juniper Tree.

Road Operation and Maintenance Capacity Building Project
DATES: November 2007 - December 2011
PARTNERS: Louis Berger Group/Black & Veatch (LBG/B&V)
Regular maintenance is essential to ensure the safety and utility of recently reconstructed roads for the people of Afghanistan. The objective of this project is to develop and implement a performance-based contracting program for operations and maintenance activities of the 1,522 kilometers of roads built by USAID. The second, longer-term objective of the project is to develop a sustainable road management entity or Road Authority, which represents a long-term sustainable solution to financing and implementing a road operations and maintenance program. This project will ensure that the Afghan government takes ownership of a governance approach to the transport sector that is based on international best practices. The goal is to provide an efficient transportation system that is sustainable and responds to the people of Afghanistan. Accomplishing this goal will promote economic growth, reduce poverty, and facilitate sustained development in Afghanistan.

text: It's crazy to think about it now but, in her prime, Pamela Anderson was a girl we want to stay 25 years old forever. The buxom Canadian first found fame as Tim "The Tool Man" Taylor's assistant on Home Improvement before strapping on the red one-piece for Baywatch, but Anderson's insane natural beauty shone like a beacon to dudes entering puberty in the late 80s. Unfortunately, hard living took its toll on her, both physically and mentally. Here's a tip for ladies out there: if you want to stay hot, don't marry a dude from a hair metal band. They'll suck all of the sexiness right out of you, leaving you a crazy withered husk.

OkayPros: Cheap, roomy Cons: FLIMSY Other Thoughts: I had just installed the PSU. I was leaning over to set the case on the floor. It slipped from my fingers and fell about 4 inches, landed on the carpet and bent. Really? I didn't expect much for the price but the case is not much thicker than a pop can. It's also very loud when a DVD is spinning. Needs rubber feet so it doesn't slide on hard surfaces. I'd give it less eggs but it is so cheap it's hard to justify expecting more... Avoid. Get a thicker one. Did you find this review helpful? |
Cheaply priced, cheaply made.Pros: Low cost. Cons: SHARP EDGES! Other Thoughts: I would advise against putting ANY significant weight on this case as I think it would easily crumble. Did you find this review helpful? |
Don't BuyPros: None Cons: This case is totally worthless. First the screws that came with the case totally striped out when trying to install the mobo, then the case demotions on the site were wrong bought and after market cpu cooler and it did not fit. Finally the case itself was cracked at the base when I received it. I would never recommend the company to anyone. 2 out of 2 people found this review helpful. Did you? |
okPros: good enough Cons: with the shipping it cost like 30 and for that you can get a case with at least a few features Did you find this review helpful? |
cheap and goodPros: Cheap, Cons: One of my three towers had a minor dent in it, but it did not effect the operation of my new PC. 1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? |
never seen worsePros: Nothing, literally no pros. Cons: I've put togather thousands of PCs in my career. High end, low end, so I have a good idea what to expect. This case has lots of issues. The disk drive punch-outs do not stay in place, they simply fall out, without being broken or anything. There is a thin piece of metalic colored plastic trim that is awkwardly placed and was easily cracked in shipping. If you order this thing high chance you'lll be eating the 20% RMA fee. 1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? |
Not Bad for $15Pros: This is a really decent case for only $15, I have this case just for an emulator computer, music, and movies on netflix. Very good size for what it's worth. Cons: Only comes with 1 x 80mm fan, but then again it's $15. 1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? |
Not as bad as anticipatedPros: - It has all the normal bays Cons: - Not all of the corners are at 90 degree angles. Though it's completely cosmetic, it still shows it true quality Other Thoughts: I bought this for a super budge build and it does what I need. The last cheap case I bought was double the price I paid ($15 for this) and it was double the strength. All in all I got what I paid for and I would probably buy another if I had a really tight budget. 1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? |
CheapPros: Nice looking case, Cons: This is not meant for a power full pc so airflow is very limited. No fan up front for air intake, and too much work to mod one on there (maybe imposible). Other Thoughts: It was $25 case!! What do you expect. I would definitely buy another if I had to. 1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? |
not the bestPros: couldn't find any other than it was 16 dollars when i bought it Cons: when this case came shipped to me (though newegg is fast) it was literally in pieces. the front power button was none existent and the face plate was broke an every screw but one. i managed to put some wood screws in it to make use of it though. the metal is very flimsy and overall the case seems very fragile, i guess that's why it came to me in pieces. Other Thoughts: i wouldn't recommend this to anyone. spend the extra dough and get a good one 2 out of 3 people found this review helpful. Did you? |

I don't speed...
No drugs either!! It took me a few second to understand what u meant! Language barrier again!!!
First and only was 12 years ago.
I almost got one, but instead, he gave me a ticket for a broken headlight. It still cost me 100$, but no demerit points.
I was speeding, but it was a deserted country road and straight as a pin and I was not impaired or driving dangerously, but I did have a headlight out. I wasn't even aware that my headlight was broken. I got it fixed the next day.
Back in 1973, hurried to pass a truck in the rain, looked in my mirror & wondered who the idiot was following me through the spray with no lights on, then the flashing blue lights came on & I was nicked!
I've never gotten a speeding ticket before. That is a wonder.
Not in a while. 3 in one day was just too much fate to tempt again.
Wasn't a camera. It happened over two states, neither of which I live in. That was brutal.
Have only ever had one. Was about ... 12 years ago. Not saying I haven't sped since though, lol.
Ive never gotten one
22 yrs
I've gotten pulled over for speeding 14 times, but I talked my way out of 7 of those tickets.
Never... fecked if I know how that is lol
Nopes never lol!!!

CHARLESTON, W.Va. -- Parents with children at a day-care center on the East End are pushing for answers about money and other questions before it's too late to keep the center open.
"I'm really optimistic that they're going to work something out, but to save the day care, there has to be an affirmative statement made by either the Governor's Office or Kanawha County Schools that says, 'Don't pull your children out, don't find new jobs. We're working on it,' " said Shelly Gardner-Lutz, a parent of two children who attend the state Public Employees Daycare near the state Capitol.
"If they don't do that by the end of the week, I don't see it surviving until June like they say."
A group of parents have filed a Freedom of Information Act to obtain any emails exchanged between officials about the closures and for information concerning the budget, Gardner-Lutz said.
Parents have also had several meetings with legislators and plan to meet again with the Governor's Office and school officials Thursday.
While officials have not yet responded to the FOIA request, financial information parents have received from school officials "just doesn't add up," Gardner-Lutz said, pointing to a confusing document Kanawha County School officials gave parents that tallies things like workers' pay and utilities.
"That didn't really answer any of our questions," Gardner-Lutz said.
Also Wednesday, a state officials said a proposed a new day-care facility at the state Capitol Complex was canceled in May 2011 over concerns about money for the project.
"It was decided the state would not move forward on spending revenue in designing a building when funds may not be available to construct it. Therefore, the solicitation was canceled," said Diane Holley-Brown, spokeswoman for the state Department of Administration. She said there were several construction and renovation projects being pursued at the time.
Earlier this month, officials announced plans to close the Public Employees Daycare and two others, the Shawnee Daycare and the Elk Center Daycare, owned by the Kanawha County Schools Community Education Program. The centers do not receive funding from the public school system, and Kanawha Schools Superintendent Ron Duerring emphasized at a school board meeting last week that the school system does not own those buildings and only helps facilitate the programs.
At that meeting, Duerring said the potential closing date, originally given as March 28, had been pushed to late June. He said negotiations were in the works, but was not specific about potential solutions -- although he did say though that tuition hikes would likely have to happen in order for the centers to survive.

Take away that last week... The Cubs collapsed and dropped seven of their final nine games of the 2004 season to finish out of the playoff race. But even after the disastrous finish, the Cubs still had an overall winning mark for the months of September and October, going 17–13.

Wayward Christian Soldiers Freeing the Gospel from Political Captivity Charles Marsh Oxford University Press, $25, 256 pp.
Charles Marsh's book joins the lengthening list of volumes rushed into print by what might be called an elite-media panic over the power of the Christian Right. The overwhelming support of Evangelicals for George W. Bush in the 2000 and 2004 presidential elections, compounded by the misadventures of the Iraq war, has generated a spate of bold and scary titles: American Theocracy, Religion Gone Bad, The Rise of Christian Nationalism.

Home > Research Legal Advice > Landlord / Tenant > Should we still be paying rent with no lease agreement with 60 letter to...
We do not have a current lease agreement with our landlord and having been paying rent on a month to month. We recently received a notice that we needed to vacate the home with 60 days. We are not sure what the status of the home is, but want to be sure of what it is that we need to do in reference to our payments.
Make your final payment and move out at the end of the last month you've paid in full for. Obviously your landlord doesn't want you there. If you're current on rent, that's good, but after you move out your landlord can still sue you for damages to the property. Be sure to thoroughly clean the premises, maybe even hire someone to clean it for you. I don't doubt for a second that if you've gotten 60 letters advising you to vacate that the landlord will then sue you after you leave.

LANSING, MI – The state Public Service Commission has released a report that says Michigan does not need new coal-burning power plants to meet its energy needs. The report is a setback for Consumers Energy, which is seeking permission to build a large capacity power plant near Bay City that has fewer emissions than a traditional coal plant.
LANSING, MI – Michigan is stockpiling a supply of anti-radiation tablets to help protect people within 10 miles of a nuclear plant in the event of an accident. People can get a one-day supply from a local pharmacy now that Michigan's joined a federal program to get the potassium iodide pills. They help protect from radiation damage to the thyroid gland.
By AP
KANSAS CITY, MO – Billy Butler drove in two runs, Kansas City's bullpen pitched 4 1-3 scoreless innings and the Royals ended the Detroit Tigers' six-game winning streak with a 7-5 victory Tuesday night.
The Royals had 11 hits and a rare strong performance from their bullpen to win consecutive games for the first time since July 27-28 against Baltimore.
LANSING, MI – Attorney General Mike Cox says he would cut the state's primary business tax in half in his first year if elected governor. That would cost the state $2 billion in lost revenue. And Cox says he would eventually phase out the Michigan Business Tax altogether. He says he'd also ask the Legislature to reduce the state income tax.
LANSING, MI – The Michigan Public Service Commission is giving negative reviews to proposals for two coal-fired power plants.
Commission staffers said Tuesday that Wolverine Power Cooperative has failed to show a need for the plant it wants to build in Rogers City.
In a separate report, the staffers also say Consumers Energy hasn't made the case for a new coal plant near Bay City unless some of the company's existing power generation is taken offline.
ROCHESTER, MI – Oakland University has asked a judge to order striking professors back to work as classes remain canceled at the suburban Detroit university.
A hearing is scheduled for 10 a.m. EDT Wednesday before Oakland County Circuit Judge Edward Sosnick on the university's complaint that the strike is illegal.
The campus chapter of the American Association of University Professors authorized a walkout Sept. 2 after the university proposed a three-year wage freeze along with cuts in health-insurance benefits.
By Laura Weber, Michigan Public Radio Network
LANSING, MI – Business groups met in Lansing Tuesday to call for structural reforms from the Legislature and Governor Granholm. They say their list of 20 reforms would help eliminate future embarrassment from state budget failures.
Jim Holcombe is with the Michigan Chamber of Commerce.
"We simply cannot keep going down the path we've set ourselves upon where each year we path together a budget, we cobble something together, and put off the tough choices for another two years," he said.
LANSING, MI – Governor Granholm's released her plan for balancing the state budget for the new fiscal year that begins October 1. Her proposal to lawmakers includes a one-penny tax on bottled water, extending the sales tax to sports and entertainment tickets, and increasing the state tax on cigarettes to $2.25 cents a pack. She also wants to end some business tax breaks.
Michigan Public Radio Network – The state Department of Community Health is offering a free one-day supply of potassium iodide pills for people who live near a nuclear power plant. The pills can help reduce the effects of radiation in the event of a nuclear accident.
Janet Olzewski is the director of the department of community health. She says getting the pills to people who face possible exposure to radiation is now part of the state's plans for dealing with a nuclear emergency.

LANSING, MI – Immunization and common sense would help Michigan avoid serious outbreaks of two types of flu this coming season. That was the message from two state agencies Tuesday at a Lansing news conference.

Thanks to Tieman for sharing this one at his tasting.
2012 vintage.
Pours a clear orange with a foamy khaki head that settles to a thin cap on top of the beer. Foamy streaks of lace form around the glass on the drink down. Smell is of malt, fruits, alcohol and some earthy aromas. Taste is much the same with an alcohol kick and a mild hop bitterness with each sip. This beer has a good level of carbonation with a crisp mouthfeel. Overall, this is a pretty good beer that smells better than it tastes in my opinion.

750ml into a tulip. Pours a slightly hazed deep orange amber copper, orange cream colored dense towering head recedes looking like a dairy product, nice lacing.
Aroma is a sweet treat. Multitudes of light skinned fruits, flowers, honeysuckle, little citrus plus a dab of sock from a summer leather shoe.
A strong but brief rustic note hits as the intro to the short lived aftertaste which is predominately a very mild nutty herbal bitter. Feels like it's on the cusp of going old world farmhouse until it doesn't. Evolves significantly with warmth to its betterment as a sweetness comes forward.
Light to medium bodied lively crisp mouthfeel.

look: 3.5 | smell: 3.5 | taste: 4 | feel: 3.5 | overall: 4
Appears hazy medium bodied orange. There is a huge white head when first poured. The head dissipates quickly.
It smells of caramel, pepper, lemon, honey, grapes. There is a nice fruity east smell to the beer. There is also a nice malty caramel presence to the smell as well.
It tastes initially of pepper, lemon, and orange. There is a great caramel smell as well. There is a nice fruity yeasty flavor as well. The balance between the yeast flavor and the malty flavor is excellent. This was not that complex but it tastes great and it is somewhat refreshing.
The mouthfeel is crisp and refreshing. The carbonation is quite strong.
The drinkability is quite excellent. It is a smooth beer and it is quite refreshing.
Overall this is quite a nice beer it is not complex but it is a nice beer. I think that it is an amazing beer but it is not the best

4.08/5 rDev +10.3%
look: 4.5 | smell: 4 | taste: 4 | feel: 4.5 | overall: 4
Appearance: Pours a cloudy copper color with the kind of thick head you would expect from a Trappist; great retention and a fair amount of lace
Smell: Toffee and cookie dough
Taste: Toffee, cookie dough, nuts and a bit of sweet apple/pear character developing by mid-palate; after the swallow, there is a bit of bready dryness that arrives to tame the sweeter elements
Mouthfeel: Medium body with moderate to high carbonation
Drinkability: Though it doesn't have the yeasty complexity of some beers in this genre, I really liked it quite a bit and it was very enjoyable to drink

So... where to begin...
I don't think I've ever sampled a "bridal ale" before, so not sure how to rate this based on style. So I'll just rate it based on my preference:)
Bottle came with the cork and cage, gold foiled on top, and vintage 2005 stamped on the side. It pours an golden/reddish color, with a small white head which diminishes pretty quick. The smell is very nice; quite malty with a bit of a heavy, fruity undertone. Taste is also very malty, and what I'd call autumn spices in the aftertaste. Carbonation level is a little light for my taste but for the style it fits nicely. Overall not bad, but I was expecting a little 'pow' from Pelican, especially for the 14$ price tag.

Not sure if this stylistic designation is correct, but we shall see...
In my Kasteel chalice, it's a darkish mahogany/ crimson coloration, with lovelyu creamy froth atop...
In the nose, sweet, light, creamy, malt-dominated, very bready, lightly floral...nice...
Taste: dark and malty, rich and nearly thick...bready and hefty, spicy, like a gingerbread brew, nearly....quite nice, and fairly unique, some lemon zest shines through in the flavor...a real mouthfull, this one, a mess of complicated flavors. Hard not to like it. Most pleasurable, this.
A big bottle, a lot to contend with, to be sure, and my opinion does not change...this is a hard-to categorize ale, that just spills out deliciousness. Sweet, luscious, fruity malt, some slight hops, and a medium body, light, fruity finish.
Very good beer. Tas-teee!

Pours a copper color with a slight haze, head is white-ish, retention is average it eventually just leaves a ring in my glass. The aroma is of sweet malts, maybe slightly fruity, a little bit of grape. The taste has nice malt flavors without being overbearingly malty, it gives some breast and toffee flavors With a bit of zest and pepper in the background. Mouthfeel is medium/heavy, though inwasn't sure what to expect from a Biere de garde. I like this beer, it's well made, certainly fun to try, but I think I may prefer some of their other also fantastic beers.

Wow. Scores say it all. Very good but not exceptional all around.
A: Deep black tea color with some mahogany and maroon when light shines through. Sloid head. ot huge, but given the richness of the beer it has some retention around the edges.
S: Bisquity, hot cocoa, malted oats and toffee.
T: Very malt driven. Rich without pronounced weight. More than a hint of sweetness. Heath bar, oat, fig, candied nut.
M: Silky on the palate. Carbonation is not a consideration here. Rich but refreshing. Deftly balanced.
D: Distinctly drinkable for the style. Abv willverwhelm after time, but no problem tossing back a couple/few. Slight lingering sweetness would be the biggest downside.

2009 vintage on draught at the brewpub. Bridal Ale is bronze with a small off-white head, leaving no lace.
Smell is lots of caramel sweetness, like Sugar Daddy candy.
Taste is remarkably like Grape Nuts cereal. Not as sweet as the nose, there's a firm bitterness from the marked increase in hops from previous vintages, which provides a nice balance.
Mouthfeel is dry, medium bodied, but a bit of stickiness.
Drinkability is good, perhaps a tad syrupy, although that is true to style. This is a loosely defined style which affords a lot of variability, and this years vintage is as good an example as any. Quaffable, tasty and smooth.

Sampled at the Pelican Pub & Brewery in Pacific City, Oregon.
Bridal Ale is a limited offering. I'm not sure if Pelican brews this regularly or if this is a one-off.
A golden ale with a light white head. There is a little malt and hops in the aroma. It has a nice apple-like, buttery taste. It has a crisp mouthfeel and little aftertaste.

That was a good watch. Thanks for the post.
I presented to the Exercise Science Department last week. Next week I'm presenting at the med center to the muscle physiology department. The ex sci presentation was recorded...I had to dumb it down a bit for the majority of undergrads in attendance. Aside from running low on time, enjoy.
That was a good watch. Thanks for the post.

Don't miss out on the next deal:
Thanks. And i'd be happy to answer any questions about it you might have. Results and discussion start around 23 min in.
2.5 - 3g per day.
Excellent question, and one that we do not know the answer to. I can only speculate that since it is a conditionally essential nutrient, though in small dosages, and it does not seem to (as far as we know) interrupt any natural biosynthesis of other compounds, you could use it indefinitely.
Cool. Ill probably run for 12 weeks consecutive just to be safe until more research emerges. I'd be happy to be involved in study dosing it longer
I've decided to invest in making betaine TMG, beta alanine, and l citrulline staples in my regimen. I'm currently getting my TMG from test powder or condense. I'm waiting for SNS to release their bulk powder!
I know the dose is 2.5g daily, should I decide to combine test powder and condense at some point, what is the maximum dose, 5g? (Assuming test powder has 2.5g or less)
Thanks Jason
"no failure is final, nor is any success"
Follow my 2014 training and supps!
All the research showing benefit has been done with 2.5g. I don't see a reason to go over 2.5-3g. The side effects at those dosages seem to be minimal, mostly GI distress...but we saw improvements in large men (>210 lbs) with 2.5 grams... So i don't think dose-mass ratio is a huge deal.
Subbed and it is a great watch.
