look: 4 | smell: 4.5 | taste: 4 | feel: 4 | overall: 4
Served on-tap
A: Clear golden color. Moderately carbonated. Head dissapates quickly, but lingers.
S: Faint cloves. Strongly sweet. Spicy, floral hops present.
T: Plenty of malty sweetness at first. A hint of honey and biscut. Definite cloves present. Nicely balanced fruitiness. The hops are definitely stronger than in most tripels, but are of the noble variety with earthiness and spiciness.
M: Light-medium bodied. Crisp and finishes dry.
D: An excellent tripel. A bit more on the hoppy end, but balances out well with the sweetness. I'll pick it up again.

Poured from the tap into a standard pint glass. It could be retired, but it was around this summer.
Appearance- Beer pours still with no hints of head whatsoever. Carbonation does cling to the sides of the glass lightly. Beer itself is a cloudy yellow brown.
Smell- Smells wheaty and yeasty, very much like a hefe. Yeast is a bit stronger giving an excellent scent of Belgian nature. Belgian notes are slight at best. Light fruits with citrus such as orange and kiwi come to my nose lightly.
Taste- Tastes solidly like a German Hefeweizen. No notes of a Belgian Tripel outside of maybe the yeast. Slight light fruits that are brought on by the yeast. No hops, no other Belgian notes.
Mouthfeel- Lightly creamy, yeasty, estery, highly warming, medium light bodied, and lightly carbonated.
Drinkability- This tastes nearly like a German Hefe. I would not revisit this beer, which is good as it's now gone on the tap, and retired according to BA.

It was a hazy golden straw coor with a short head that quickly went down to nothing.
It had little to no smell.
It had a well balanced fruity malt and hops taste. There was a refreshing taste of clove in it that reminded me of hefe-weizen.
I found it to be very drinkable, this could be a very nice session beer.

Hazed pale orange color, slim white head.
Pepper and spice in the nose, funky Belgian yeast and citrus fruit.
Taste: Peppery bite meets lush fruit, playful in the mouth, but...doesn't really snap. Sweetness prevails, little bitterness. Creamy, with a kick, but, again, missing some zing..zazz...zork.
Fullish body, but feeble finish. Not bad, but not memorable. Easy drinking, though, and the alcohol doesn't stick out too far.

Poured into a snifter at the Two Brothers Tap House. A color midway between banana peel and melon topped by a persistent white head. Aromas of melon and estery fruit plus citrusy hops with a subtle malt background. A sweet malt taste that fades to more fruit esters and left coast hops, and in a more mellow balance than some of the classic Tripels. As with most of TBB's higher ABV beers, the solid malt body obscures the ABV quite well. Like most tripels, this is not near the session-beer range, but the fuller body is appropriate for the style. With a little less oral fireworks than some other brews in this style, another round doesn't seem like such a bad idea.

Sampled this earlier today at the Two Brothers Tap House.
A: Poured into a small snifter the beer glows an incandescent and slightly cloudy yellow and gold topped with a half an inch of frothy bone white head that fades in about a minute and leaves a bit of lacing down the class during the entire session.
S: Pretty interesting and unlike most tripels, I thought this one might be able to pass for an imperial weizen at first sniff due to the heavy aroma of banana and clove. Given time the aroma begins to expand a bit and candied apricots and pineapple become more prevalent, but a tad on the sweet side, even for a tripel.
T/MF: Heavy and sweet and thick with the candi sugar that become more apparent in the nose. A good deal of clove and herbal spiciness to go along with the sugary pineapple and apricot and banana. The carbonation is livly enough but the finish is rather long and sticky and really weighs the beer down more than it should.
D: Maybe I drank this in the wrong order, I had a beire de guard previous to this one, but this beer just seemed overly sweet and overly thick for what I've come to expect from the style. A very fresh and unique beer nonetheless but I would stick to one of these in a night and that's all.

Served in a snifter at Two Brothers Tap House 6/19/08.
A: Served a glowing golden hazy peach color with a tiny 1/2 finger head. Small amount of lace.
S: Aromas of spicy/fruity yeast, coriander/clove, and lightly toasted yeast.
T: Very sweet candi sugar mixed with flavors of peach/apple/mango, and a nice spicy/fruity yeast.
M: Sweet, spicy, and oily. Coats very well.
D: Not a trace of the 10% abv. Dangerous!

The Two Bros retro release of Oh Brother Tripel is pretty good...and I'm not much of a Belgian fan. The beer pours a clear orangish color with thin head that is not lacing. The smell was typical of most Belgians with that slight twang. The taste is a sweeter malt taste with a slightly acidic flare. The mouthfeel is full body with good carbonation. Overall this is a decent beer.

Pours a nice, dense, white head. Soft sweet aroma with notes of banana and grassy hops, with alcohol wafting in the background. Golden color. Starts off sweet, slightly acidic, and boozey with surprising hoppiness. Middle is dominated by a boozy malt. Finish moves into malt and hop bitterness.
Not bad, overall. Surprisingly hoppy. I like that more yeasty-malty-banana in my Tripels.

Live review. Poured from the 1 pint, 6 oz. bomber bottle that I bought at Save-On Tobacco & Beverage for $6.99 a week ago or so into my clean, clear Voodoo Brewery pint glass. No "best by" date observed but a large sticker states: Cleveland Beer Week Special Release and left side of label mentions "Celebrating 15 years with 15 beers" and "Retro Release 11 of 15"
A Light yellow translucent body under a generous but brief white head that dissipates quickly, The body reminds me of a Bud Light, really. 2.5
S Belgian yeast and some sweetness from apparent candi sugars but not very characteristic of the style really. I have to say that so far I am dissapointed. 2.5
T Malt sweetness and Belgian yeast tastes certainly classify it as a Belgian Tripel but this is a rather weak one really. It just delivers on the required tastes and that is about it. Also there is a very weak aftertaste. It tends to just disappear. 3.0
M Some syrupy sweetness is there but it quickly leaves. Lingering syrupy sweetness is not necessarily typical for the style but this leaves really quickly. Overall the feel is on the thin side for an artisan Tripel. 2.5
D/O Drinkability is reasonable for the style. Overall this is unimpressive. 3.0

Presentation: 22 oz. bomber poured into sam adams perfect pint glass. No freshness dating indicated.
A-Pours a slightly hazy light honey color. Minimal head on the pour. And a ring forms on the sides as I drink.
S-Banana. Alcoholic banana that is. Nothing much else to be had here.
T&MF-This beer has the worst banana taste I have ever had. Reminds me of that gawdy 99 Bananas liquor. After the punishing bananas flavors, in comes the horrible alcohol taste. Dont get me wrong, I dont mind boozy alcohol flavors in the appropriate style. But this is like rubbing alcohol or wood glue. Mouthfeel is a bit dry and carbonation could be a bit more for the style.
O-Im wondering if the fermentation temps were a bit too high. This is not a pleasure to drink and I doubt if I will finish it. More attention to detail needs to be considered if they are planning on doing this style again.

Never picked this one up a few years ago, just wasn't something that sounded appealing.
Working through the 15th anniversary series, and here it is again.
Poured into a tapered mug, it has about a half inch of foam initially that fades to nothing after the first couple sips. Sadly doesn't look remotely Belgian as a result. Some streamers of carbonation, and a brassy orange color to it.
Smells nice, mainly yeasty esters with banana and clove notes.
A bit slick with rapidly fading carbonation. Big and chewy, apple, nuts, banana, clove, nutmeg flavors. Residual spiciness in the dry aftertaste. Tastes pretty good actually, with well hidden alcohol. Clean and fairly flavorful, overall lacking a little though.
Honestly not a big fan of most US Tripels, but this one is pretty much to style, minus the lack of a billowing head and effervescent carbonation.

From: Binny's, Champaign, IL
Date: None
Glass: Tulip
Two Brothers brews a fairly strange tripel with its emphasis on rather heavy yeast and musty banana. As I note below, this is a little reminiscent of an imperial hefeweizen, except the bananas gradually become overwhelmed by apple and pear esters, and there is none of the hefeweizen yeast specifics in the aroma or flavor. This was an acceptable tripel, but overall too heavy with too-little emphasis on the spices that are often noted in tripels and the complex light fruit esters.
Pours a 1cm head of slightly off-white foam that has average retention. The head fades to a thin ring around the glass with a few wispy lines of foam atop the body. Lacing is above average, with solid splotches and dots along the sides of the glass. The body is a transparent orange-gold color, with light turning it a golden yellow hue. Carbonation is visible and quite active.
Aroma is of heavy banana, yeast, malt, a bit of mustiness, and old pine needles. Absent is much of the apple, pear, unripe peach/apricot, and herb mixture that I've come to anticipate from tripels.
Reading my description, this beer sounds something like an imperial version of a hefeweizen, except it is missing that smoothness of flavors and trading the banana, yeast, and bread intensities for ethanol, pear, and apple. I suspect there is a fair bit of wheat malt in the mash, but cannot confirm this. The front of the palate detects yeast, banana esters, and some mild apple and pear juice sweetness. Mid-palate of overripe banana, hints of tart pear and apple in a pale malt base, with some ethanol appearing as well. Back of palate picks up a bit of curry-like spiciness with continued pear and apple juice, and substantial ethanol, which is a bit of a turn-off as it detracts from the other flavors.
Beer is medium to medium-heavy in body, with moderate carbonation that produces a fairy smooth, softly fizzy mouthfeel. Ethanol is generally well felt on the tongue, throat, and in the nostrils, and while perhaps a bit too obvious and high for its own good, the result is still drinkable and pleasurable across the palate. The beer closes dryly, with fairly substantial stickiness on the palate and lips.

Poured from a 22 oz bottle into a Lost Abbey chalice.
A- pours a nice caramel with a 2 finger white head. Big blotches and trails of lacing remain on the glass.
S- caramel, big Belgian yeast aromas, bananas, clove, and some other spices.
T- sweet caramel, banana, clove, more spices, and some bitterness.
M- medium body and carbonation. Slight slick, syrupy feel with some creaminess as well.
O- I thought this was a nice beer. I don't drink triples regularly, so hard to compare styles.

Served in a Duvel tulip glass.
Man, I was gonna use this name as a joke-y name for an upcoming homebrew...oh, well... This stuff pours a clear gold topped by a finger or so of lightly off-white foam. The nose comprises wheat, banana, light clove, a kiss of booze, and the vague notion of biscuit. The taste brings in more of the same, but the banana is the clear overlord here, dominating all other flavors. Near the end, it twists a bit, becoming an almost creamsicle-like orange kinda thing. It's odd, actually. Whatever spice was imparted by the yeast and whatnot has been almost completely eclipsed, taking away from the whole tripel-ness of things. The body is a light medium, with a light moderate carbonation and a smooth, almost slick feel. Overall, an okay tripel, but one whose lack of traditional characteristics and whose o'erwhelming sense of banana keep me from truly enjoying it.

Wow, this beer has a flat out bad appearance. It's flat with no sign of head even for a second, and is deep gold in color. It looks like apple juice.
The scents are caramel, clove, and a little banana.
Caramel and banana taste, but is very muted.
Mouthfeel is medium bodied and, thankfully, there is a little carbonation.
Blah. This is almost unrecognizable as a tripel and is not a good beer. At all.

22oz bottle poured into a tulip.
This vintage is a few years old, so I'm excited to see how it's holding up! The beer looks rather plain in my glass. It's got a golden honey color, is relatively clear, and only retains a small ring of head. Could be better, much better actually, if it had a more hazy appearance, head retention, or any lace at all.
Oh brother, I hope this at least smells nice. Well, it does - some spicy honey, pepper, apple cider and belgian pale malt are pleasant and well balanced. The only problem is they are just not terribly expressive.
The taste and mouthfeel are the best parts of this beer. Its got notes of apple cider, great coriander and a sweet banana finish. Some lingering sweetness is noted and there is a kick of booze. Little oxidation for being a few years old, this has cellared quite well! The beer is sparkling and has a medium body, but it could be just a touch more substantial. Overall, I wasn't ranting and raving about this beer, but I also wasn't disappointed. A decent American Tripel, but no where near the best of the style..

Liked their Hop Juice, so I figured I'd try their tripel. Haven't had much tripel before so it's tough to compare.
A: Pours hazy golden color. Thin white head that doesn't stick around. Some sticky lacing present on glass.
S: Spicy, sweet smell. Apple tartness with some alcohol scents come through as well.
T: Good floral hoppy spice. A little more bitter than I was expecting. Hints of an apple tart as the drink goes on.
M: Light-medium bodied. Crisp and finishes dry.
D: Not bad. Pretty easy to drink. A different taste that keeps you guessing what exactly it is. Overall though a good drink.

Aroma - Sweet fruits similar to ripe apples
Appearance - Poured a slightly cloudy yellow with no real carbonation after the that.
Taste - Very tripel like with sweetness and spice dominating the flavor profile. This is a very good by the book tripel flavor
Notes - Appearance wasn't to great and mouthfeel really killed this beer. The beer was pretty much flat, which isn't a good thing when trying to duplicate a Belgian style.

Thanks to my Santa justn for sending this my way.
Bottle poured into a DFH snifter did not yield any head only thing that showed up was a light ring of bubbles around the glass. The body of the brew was a murky apricot in color.
The aroma is big on the Belgian yeast, bubblegum and cloves are right in your face. It is most defiantly sweet and candy like in the smell. The feel in my mouth is a solid medium with almost no carbonation. The flavor is sweet fruit up front with a nice pepper spice note in the end.
It was easy to drink. I finished the bottle with no problem it was a ok try at a triple not one of my American favorites but close

One of the better american tripels that I've had. Good golden color, a little heavy on the malt or fruit, like a quadrupel or dark strong but pretty close to a tripel none the less. This brewery makes a lot of good styles and are good at most of them, inculing this one.

Appears a hazy, copper toned gold with a small, off-white head that quickly fizzles out into a mild cap. Scattered bits of lacing are left around the glass.
Smell is of ripe tropical fruit with notes of poached pears, mangos, and pineapple pulling through with a sugary sweetness.
Taste is of the flavorful bouquet coming through with a light caramel maltiness with apple, bubblegum, and apricot coming to the forefront.
Mouthfeel is medium bodied, spritzy, and yeasty.

22 ounce bomber purchased from DeCicco`s in Ardsley, NY.
The appearance is a very light golden color, with a short head.
Oh Brother smells of alcohol, yeast, neither are overpowering.
It tastes of some sugar, vanilla, light lemon.
Mouthfeel is fizzy with light bubbles, more of that alcohol presence begins to warm you up.
Drinkability is good and Oh Brother seems to be a beer that is more enjoyable with some time to decant. This is the second offering that I have had from Two Brothers and I am looking forward to trying something else from them in the future.

A lightly clouded light orange color. Small white head faded to a slick rapidly. A few large carbonation bubbles float slowly. Almost no lace.
Sweet alcohol hits the nose hard before finishing with a bready note. Sweet apple tartness is faint throughout. Bitterness is almost non existent.
Very malt heavy on the tongue. Tastes of freshly baked bread. Tartness of apples is present but loses some of the unique fruit flavor. Alcohol is quite strong.
Nice feel on the tongue and flavors do cling. A bit of over carbonation makes the tingle a bit distracting.
An average brew. Would work well with a cheese plate as a snack. A bit of an off balance with alcohol being too strong. Not bad, just others out there are better.

Nose is yeasty and fruity with soft malt, floral notes, and some spice. Smells pretty good.
Pours translucent tangerine with little head. Looks pretty good.
Nicely thick with heavy citric flavors and acidity/tartness. Oily/filmy mouthfeel. Mildly bitter. Fruity and light. Mild malt. Hints of alcohol. Finishes slightly dry. Tastes okay. Feels pretty good. Pretty good drinkability.
Light & refreshing, nothing special or interesting. No indication of age. A copyright date on the label reads 2005, but surely that's just when the label was made. No mention of the beer on the brewery website. Suggested improvements: spicier, maltier, less fruity, more alcoholic or more indication of alcohol (this drinks like fruit juice). I am delighted to see so much yeast on the bottom of the bottle, maybe the yeast has just seriously mellowed it out given the uncharacteristic yeasty aroma and taste. No mention on the label that it is bottle conditioned. Some beers are noted as 'living' and are perhaps more likely to be kept off room temperature shelves.
Suggestion: add 'live ale' notice on bottle to instruct retailers to keep in a cooler and to warn consumers if found above cellar temperature.

Master Class - John Miller, bassoon
When: Oct. 20, 2013, 1pm - 5pmCampus Location: Lee and Thomas Beam Music Center
Office/Remote Location: Dr. Arturo Rando-Grillot Hall
The department of music is proud to present Bassoonist John Miller as part of their master class series. John Miller Jr., was appointed principal bassoon of the Minnesota Orchestra in 1971, the year he also joined the music faculty of the University of Minnesota. Since then he has continued his solo career, performing numerous times with the Minnesota Orchestra, most recently playing Mozart's "Bassoon Concerto" in May 2009, as well as with many other orchestras.
Miller received his early musical training at the Peabody Conservatory in Baltimore and the New England Conservatory in Boston. He earned a bachelor's of science degree in humanities and engineering from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and was awarded a Fulbright grant for music study in Amsterdam. While in Boston, he founded the Bubonic Bassoon Quartet and made the premiere recording of the "Hummel Bassoon Concerto," released along with the "Weber Concerto" on Cambridge Records.
For more than 20 years, Miller was a member of the American Reed Trio. Among his solo recordings are four concertos by Vivaldi and the Mozart and Vanhal Bassoon Concertos, all conducted by Sir Neville Marriner, on two Pro Arte discs. His teachers have included Louis Skinner, Arthur Weisberg, Stanley Petrulis, Sherman Walt, Stephen Maxym and Thom de Klerk. Among Miller's educational activities is the Nordic Bassoon Symposium, an outgrowth of the John Miller Bassoon Symposium, which began in 1984; it has attracted an international mix of hundreds of professional, student and amateur bassoonists. Miller has also presented master classes and recitals at major conservatories and music schools on five continents.
This preformance is free and open to the public.

Even if the weather hasn't quite come around yet, summer is almost here. For many people, that means it's almost time to head - very, very slowly, if you leave on a Friday - to the beach.
For the environmentally conscious, however, a beach vacation is sometimes fraught with guilt. Few places exhibit man's encroachment on nature more clearly than a beach. Turn your back to the ocean, and you see rows of hotels and high-rise condos. Gas-powered jet skis skid across the ocean, and planes drag advertisements through the skies. Seeing trash in the water is depressingly commonplace.
So what can you do to minimize your impact on beaches, without denying your children their fundamental right to boogie board? It turns out that much of what you can do to protect beaches happens before you leave home.
"You live closer to the beach than you think," says Steve Fleischli, director of the Natural Resources Defense Council's water program. "Your drain may lead to the ocean or to a river that leads to the ocean."
Have you ever noticed a large pipe draining into the ocean at your favorite beach and wondered what comes out of it? For the most part, it's storm water runoff - rain or snow that falls on concrete or paved surfaces, then finds its way into a drain and out to the beach. Whatever the water encounters on its way into that drain can make its way to the ocean.
"Pick up after your pet," Fleischli recommends. "Don't over-water and fertilize your lawns. Try to retain water on-site at your home with permeable surfaces rather than letting it drain down the driveway. And water your grass, not the sidewalks or street."
And once you're at the beach, stay away from those storm drains. The warm, calm pools of water that accumulate at the end of those pipes may be tempting, especially to children, but Fleischli recommends staying at least 50 yards away from the drains.
The NRDC reported that 8 percent of water samples collected from beaches in 2011 exceeded national standards for harmful bacteria. Storm water runoff was the largest known contributor to the contamination.
The good news is that the Mid-Atlantic boasts some of the cleanest beaches in the country, according to the NRDC report. Dewey and Rehoboth beaches in Delaware received the group's highest rating, as did Maryland's Ocean City at Beach 6. At Hammerman beach at Gunpowder Falls State Park in Maryland, however, 15 percent of samples exceeded national standards for bacterial contamination; at the beach in Elk Neck State Park, also in Maryland, 31 percent of samples failed, due largely to increased waterfowl droppings. A spokesman for the Maryland Department of the Environment says local officials are taking steps to reduce contamination levels at both beaches.
Staying away from drains is the best thing you can do for yourself at the beach, but the best thing you can do for the beach itself is to keep off the dunes. You've seen the signs. Heed them.
"Sandy dunes in barrier islands are a natural protection for the rest of the habitat on the island," says Nick Mallos, a conservation biologist for the Ocean Conservancy. "The grasses and other vegetation that grow there have roots that penetrate into the sand and stabilize the beach habitat." When storms lash the beaches, the dunes keep the sand from sliding into the sea.
Trash, of course, is an obvious eyesore. But beach littering has far-reaching consequences. Mallos says he has seen thousands of dead albatrosses with plastic items such as bottle caps, cigarette lighters and toothbrushes in their stomachs. He recalls seeing a juvenile loggerhead sea turtle trapped in what very likely came from one of the many plastic bags blowing around American beaches. In Mallos's view, it's not enough to throw your trash into garbage cans on the beach, where wind can carry it out of the container and into the sea. Instead, he suggests, take home everything you bring to the beach.
Finally, a word about sunscreen. Researchers have shown that sunscreen can cause coral bleaching, the expulsion of important algae from the hard tissue of a coral reef. Bleaching doesn't kill the reef immediately, but it leaves coral more vulnerable to disease and other stresses. According to some estimates, up to 10 percent of the world's coral reefs may suffer from exposure to sunscreen worn by snorkelers and swimmers. The Maryland, Delaware, Virginia and New Jersey beaches don't feature significant coral reefs, but if your vacation includes a visit to a coral-studded ocean such as the waters off the Florida Keys, be careful about your personal-care products. Always wear sunscreen, but try to avoid heavily touristed beaches with nearby coral reefs.

First Apple, now Google hit with kids' app lawsuit
Last month, 4- and 5-year-old brothers in New York quickly spent $65.95 in real money to buy virtual goods in Marvel's Run Jump Splash game on the family tablet. They were able to rack up the charges without entering a password. And for that, the boys' mother has joined a class-action lawsuit filed Tuesday against Google, accusing the company of deceiving consumers about its in-app purchase system, which critics say makes it too easy for kids to spend money on their Android devices.

The acquisition by SW1 Capital of long-established hedge fund platform PCE Investors forms a major plank in the firm's strategy to build a major new multi-faceted asset management operation at a time of far-reaching change and opportunity in the alternative investment industry.
Simon Luhr and Terry Duffy
Besides buying one of the few well-established London-based hedge fund infrastructure platforms, SW1 is also building up its own investment operation. It wants to expand SW1 Asset Management through the addition of a handful of experienced and high-capacity hedge fund managers.
The ambitions of the group, which has assets under management of around $2 billion, are bold. But SW1's co-founders are no strangers to the asset management and hedge fund worlds.

Mariah Carey and Kim Kardashian wanted to share their special Valentine's Day moments on Instagram.
For Carey, she posted several pics of herself in a bathtub filled with balloons and confetti, as she waited for hubby Nick Cannon to come home.
"Still waiting…"
"Extra's" special correspondent Angie Martinez caught up with superstar Mariah Carey at the Empire State building in NYC.
Carey, who just dropped her new single "You're Mine (Eternal)," told Martinez that husband Nick Cannon was away for Valentine's Day, so she wanted to send him a message. "Nick, fully to the world right now, if you do not produce the footage of me giving birth to dem babies, I'm never speaking to you again. That is my Valentine's Day promise, believe it.""Extra's" Gossip Girl has the scoop on Mariah Carey and Nick Cannon. It turns out the Hollywood supercouple is selling their Bel Air mansion for a whopping $13 million.
The 11,750 square-ft. mansion includes 7 bedrooms, 9 bathrooms, a putting green, pool, and parking for more than 20 cars. Thanks to significant upgrades on the house, Mariah and Nick will make a pretty profit on the sale."Extra's" AJ Calloway caught up with all the stars at the BET Honors 2014 event, including Mariah Carey, who wore a revealing black dress that showed off all her fabulous assets!
Watch our backstage and red carpet interviews with Carey, Jennifer Hudson, Aretha Franklin and others after the jump!Wow! Mariah Carey is one hot mama. The singer showed off her bikini body in a sizzling red two-piece while vacationing in Aspen this week.
Her Instagram caption explained, "It's just a tradition #aspen #coldyethot.""Extra's" AJ Calloway sat down for an exclusive interview with Mariah Carey at Dylan's Candy Bar, where she treated children from the Fresh Air Fund to gingerbread houses and a meet and greet with Santa.
Carey has a lot to celebrate this year, kicking off her "12 Days of Christmas" on NBC and selling an unprecedented 14 million copies of her "Merry Christmas" album, but she is also looking forward to spending time with twins Moroccan and Monroe and husband Nick Cannon in Aspen this holiday season."American Idol" judge Harry Connick, Jr. felt the need to comment on Mariah Carey's statement that she "hated" working on "Idol," because he's having a blast.
Carey sat down for an interview on Wednesday with good friend HOT 97 radio DJ Angie Martinez and candidly spoke about her time on the judges' panel. "Honestly, I hated it," Carey admitted, "It was like going to work every day in hell with Satan.""Extra's" AJ Calloway sat down with Mariah Carey to talk about her new music, and how injuries she sustained after falling on the set of her music video this summer were much more serious than she let on.
With her hand wrapped in a bandage, Carey explained, "I dislocated my shoulder, my ribs. There was nerve damage. It was very serious and I downplayed the seriousness of the situation."

Hialeah Presents WLRN With Awards Of Merit
Earlier this month some of our WLRN staff got notification that the City of Hialeah wanted to issue a proclamation for our remarkable new documentary The Hialeah Speedway: No Guts, No Glory.
Some of us didn't quite know what was coming.
Those who didn't grow up in Hialeah might not be aware of the significance of the speedway. But upon entering City Hall for the City Council meeting, we were quickly reminded about the impact that our documentary has had-- and will continue to have-- on the community. The track was once a centerpiece of Hialeah, but one that was tragically shut down as a product of the city's growth.
Inside City Hall, Council Vice President Luis Gonzalez approached WLRN's Adrienne Kennedy, the show's Executive Producer, and Debra Hall-Green, the show's Producer. He shared some of his fondest memories of going to the track on the weekends. Others gathered around and shared stories of hearing the cars echoing in the neighborhood, of sneaking in for a peak on the weekend and more.
Once the meeting officially started, the Awards were the first thing on the agenda. Mayor Carlos Hernandez gave a heartfelt thank you to those who helped bring the project together, and his surprise encounter with the documentary while flipping through the channels one night. Awards of Merit were granted to WLRN's special projects manager Adrienne Kennedy, and Producer Debra Hall-Green for their leadership and contribution towards the development of this half-hour documentary on the legendary race car track. Other key figures from the community who received awards were Steve Brack and George Poveromo.
We gave five copies of the DVD to the city, and Mayor Hernandez declared that at least one copy shall be given to the Clerk to be kept for historical purposes.
After the picture taking was done, the team was approached by Marla Alpizar of the Department of Libraries about getting additional copies for the city's library system.
We are very proud of our accomplishments here at WLRN, and even prouder that our efforts can bring smiles and fond memories to a changing community. It is always important to remember where you come from, and we are honored that our documentary about the Hialeah Speedway drew such emotions from those in the community.
Public service has always been our core value, and we would like to thank the City of Hialeah for these prestigious awards, and for acknowledging our continued efforts to preserve South Florida history.

To find upcoming cluster courses: Search MaineStreet>Class search>Scroll to bottom>General Ed Category>B-cl:Casco Bay Region Spring 2014 Schedule-tentative
"Casco Bay Region: Where We Live"
A Thematic Cluster in the USM Core (choose honors and/or non-honors courses)
Cluster Description: Explore your surroundings. Understand your community. In this cluster, you'll examine our region's culture, transitions, diversity, and natural environment. You'll reflect on our local identity and experience: Who are we? Why are we the way we are? How does Portland, Maine, or New England fit within the world? How do we relate to the ecosystem that supports us? The cluster fosters a sense of place and connects you to the community. It motivates community stewardship, including a commitment to protect what you love about Maine.
The Casco Bay Region cluster is organized by the Honors Program, and all students are encouraged to sample honors (HON) courses. Non-honors courses are also available. HON courses are seminars that emphasize discussion, reflection, close reading of challenging texts, writing, research, and civic engagement. Non-honors courses tend to be slightly larger and less likely to use a seminar format. All 300-level HON courses in the cluster are open to any USM student willing to engage with the course material; however, if a student's grade in an HON course is lower than B-, that student is expected to finish the cluster with non-honors courses.

Sophomore standing (ideally 2nd semester sophomore) and Honors student status (or permission) |
every semester |
HON 455 - Topics in New England Studies Undergraduate seniors seek permission to sit in graduate courses offered by the American and New England Studies program. Courses appropriate for the cluster examine New England's identity and experience in the context of the broader American experience. Courses combine various disciplinary approaches, but all draw on contemporary scholarship and stress the historicity of the region's culture and society.
Honors Student and Instructor permission (normally requires 3.5+GPA and senior standing of 84 credits) |
every semester |
* All thematic cluster courses at USM are to be taken after (or current with) any course that fulfills the Core's "Ethical Inquiry, Social Responsibility, and Citizenship" requirement.
** Normally, students are required to select cluster courses with at least two different prefixes. Students can complete the cluster entirely with HON courses, as long as those courses represent different disciplines (e.g., not all history courses or not all literature courses). Contact Honors for requirement certification.
For more information or to enroll in your first honors course, contact an Honors Program advisor at firstname.lastname@example.com or the 207-780-4330.

OEA Foundation
Every day somewhere in Oregon, OEA members, teachers and support professionals working in Oregon's public schools encounter students who are in need.
Established in 1995, the OEA Foundation provides educators with up to $100 grants to help students meet basic, urgent and immediate needs so they can succeed in school. Cash grants from the Foundation fill needs unmet by any other source. Unfortunately, and particularly in this economic climate, the need is ever-present and continues to grow in Oregon.
Since its creation, the Foundation has distributed over $900,000 to help needy Oregon public school students. Since the beginning, the key source for these critical funds has been OEA members and staff. The OEA family continues to be generous in their support through payroll deductions and cash and online donations. The Oregon Education Association funds all of the administrative costs of the Foundation, which allows all donations to be used to provide direct assistance to students.
Over the past 17 years, the OEA Foundation has purchased countless pairs of eyeglasses, repaired a broken wheelchair, provided many students with their first winter coat, paid for dental work and doctor visits, fitted new shoes on lots of feet, and even replaced a broken bedroom window. When all is said and done, the OEA Foundation works to ensure that the physical, social, and emotional needs of students do not stand in the way of success in school.
Who may access the grant process?
Any active OEA member who encounters a student in need can make a request for funds from the OEA Foundation.
The OEA Foundation is dedicated to meeting the most basic needs of public education students. Your tax-deductible donations will make a positive difference and allow us to continue to assist those who need help. Donations may also be made "In Honor Of" a colleague or "In Memory Of" a family member.
Thank you for supporting the OEA Foundation, to allow OEA members to help students succeed.

[Original column posted February 12, 12:00 p.m.] Tesla Motors CEO Elon Musk is all charged up over a The New York Times article claiming that his company's latest all-electric vehicle doesn't go as far on its battery as advertised.
On Sunday, the paper published a review of the Model S sedan by John M. Broder, who took it on a test drive from Washington, DC to Connecticut. Tesla recently installed two "Supercharger" stations along the route, 200 miles apart. That's within the 300-mile driving range claimed by the company, and the 265-mile range estimated by the Environmental Protection Agency. The battery's charge dropped precipitously while parked overnight in cold weather, however, and Broder ran out of juice trying to make it back to one of the stations.
Musk says that account is dishonest, tweeting on Monday afternoon:
NYTimes article about Tesla range in cold is fake. Vehicle logs tell true story that he didn't actually charge to max & took a long detour.
— Elon Musk (@elonmusk) February 11, 2013
The accusation quickly lit up the media, and Musk was soon doing interviews on CNBC and Bloomberg TV where he said three factors led to Broder's breakdown: He didn't give the car a full charge, he drove over the speed limit for portions of the trip, and he took a detour through heavy traffic in Manhattan.
"I mean, it's just like if you had a gasoline car, if you only filled the tank up part way and instead of driving to your destination, you meandered through downtown Manhattan and through all the traffic and everything, and then raced to where you were originally supposed to go, and you ran out of gas, people would just think you're a fool," Musk told on CNBC's Maria Bartiromo.
The Tesla CEO also conceded that, with his company's stock down a couple percent on Monday, he was worried about the bottom line. Musk complained that he'd grown media-wary since a bad experience on BBC's Top Gear program in 2008.
The show had reviewed the Tesla Roadster on its racetrack and said it ran out of juice after 55 miles. Tesla accused Top Gear of lying, claiming the car's data logs showed that it had not, in fact, run out of charge. Since then, Musk told CNBC, the company operates on a "trust but verify" philosophy and always turns on "detailed vehicle logging" for media test drives. (He also stressed that the feature is turned on in customers' vehicles only with their "explicit written permission.")
Musk filed a libel suit against the television show, but it was struck down last year on a sort of technicality—the car had been driven on Top Gear's racetrack, the Guardian reported, so there was no way a reasonable person would expect the similar results in regular driving conditions.
Mileage does, in fact, vary. A different New York Times reporter who did a test drive in California last September gave the Model S a good review, but the Los Angeles Times reported last week that even in the warmth of the West, driving fast dramatically reduces the car's range.
In response to Musk's allegations against Broder, CNBC's Bartiromo and others pointed out that many people have a lead foot, take detours, and aren't careful about topping off their fuel. And, of course, Broder mentioned that he traveled over the speed limit at times and acknowledged his detour through Manhattan, which came before his last charge, contrary to what Musk implied. The Times defended Broder in a statement emailed to reporters:
The Times's Feb. 10 article recounting a reporter's test drive in a Tesla Model S was completely factual, describing the trip in detail exactly as it occurred. Any suggestion that the account was 'fake' is, of course, flatly untrue. Our reporter followed the instructions he was given in multiple conversations with Tesla personnel. He described the entire drive in the story; there was no unreported detour. And he was never told to plug the car in overnight in cold weather, despite repeated contact with Tesla.

AwesomwPros: Better than many other anti virus products. Cons: i have nothing!! Other Thoughts: Been using NOD for about 5 years now and absolutely love it. All anti virus products do make your computer a bit slower, but this one doesn't come with tons of bloat-ware, it is super configurable, it's saved my machines from being compromised more than once. 2 out of 2 people found this review helpful.

Great SoftwarePros: -No annoying pop-ups like Mcaffee and Norton. Cons: -A little on the expensive side (but well worth the $) Other Thoughts: Best antivirus software I've ever used in my 12 plus years of computer usage. 1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? |
Best out there.Pros: Hassle free after setup. Catches everything. Can block malicious websites/downloads and websites not intended for kiddies if wanted. Cons: Why would there be? Other Thoughts: I have been using ESET Antivirus for 6 years now and AV 4 was their cream of the crop. 1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? |
Fast & effectivePros: Fast, even on low end systems Cons: none 1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? |
meh - hastlePros: Seems to have a good active protection setup. Doesn't slug down your machine when actively protecting like norton for example Cons: came with an invalid license key, took about 1 week of emailing back and forth, sending photos of my cd, newegg packing and the contents of the case it came in to get a license issued, even then i never really got a license just a username and password to sign in as to activate. doesn't catch some of what malware bites considers malicious tracking cookies but maybe malware bytes is to sensitive? Other Thoughts: I'm glad i took advantage of this product on sale, i would consider resigning if the price were lower. - 3 stars for the hastle, thats still a passing grade 1 out of 2 people found this review helpful.

Eset rocks.Pros: Everything you want in a Windows based anti-virus. Proactive heuristics, runs in the background, light on resources and will advise you to update your system before your system does. Sale price. Cons: n/a Other Thoughts: I would not run a Windows based system without having Eset installed unless that system was on a desert island without a network connection. 1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? |
What happened?Pros: A good anti-virus program. Cons: Not as good as ESET 4. Other Thoughts: Will go with another anti-virus program because of the hardware conflicts. Dissapointed but still a quality anti-virus. 1 out of 2 people found this review helpful. Did you? |
Not sure if it is working or not...Pros: Easy to install, seems like it keeps itself update fairly frequently. Cons: Not sure if it is working, have yet to catch anything... Other Thoughts: I tried to trip the antivirus by going to some "questionable" sites and download some stuff, run the antivirus scan and found nothing. That is why I question if this thing is working or not... 0 out of 4 people found this review helpful. Did you? |
Absolutely The BestPros: Absolutely the best protection that you can get for your computer. Amazing detection results combined with lightening speed make this product perhaps the best antivirus I've ever used (with the exception of Malwarebytes) and I honestly can't find a comparable product anywhere. Cons: I almost wish I could find something to complain about with this product. Other Thoughts: I'm a computer major in college, and for the last 6 years I've been working on computers, I can't seem to find anything better. Even my classmates agree that this is one of the best products that they've ever used. Time and time again ESET has proven itself to be a company focused on complete and effective security solutions not only for the general public, but also for businesses and large corporations. 2 out of 2 people found this review helpful.

The RhoGAP Domain of CYK-4 Has an Essential Role in RhoA Activation
The RhoGAP Domain of CYK-4 Has an Essential Role in RhoA Activation

► RhoA is a dosage-sensitive regulator of cytokinesis ► The GAP domain of CYK-4 is essential for full activation of RhoA ► Reducing the activities of Rac1 and Arp2/3 results in cortical instability ► CED-10/Rac1 is not the primary target of the CYK-4 GAP domain
Cytokinesis in animal cells is mediated by a cortical actomyosin-based contractile ring. The GTPase RhoA is a critical regulator of this process as it activates both nonmuscle myosin and a nucleator of actin filaments [1]. The site at which active RhoA and its effectors accumulate is controlled by the microtubule-based spindle during anaphase [2]. ECT-2, the guanine nucleotide exchange factor (GEF) that activates RhoA during cytokinesis, is regulated by phosphorylation and subcellular localization [3,4,5]. ECT2 localization depends on interactions with CYK-4/MgcRacGAP, a Rho GTPase-activating protein (GAP) domain containing protein [5, 6,5, 6]. Here we show that, contrary to expectations, the Rho GTPase-activating protein (GAP) domain of CYK-4 promotes activation of RhoA during cytokinesis. Furthermore, we show that the primary phenotype caused by mutations in the GAP domain of CYK-4 is not caused by ectopic activation of CED-10/Rac1 and ARX-2/Arp2. However, inhibition of CED-10/Rac1 and ARX-2/Arp2 facilitates ingression of weak cleavage furrows. These results demonstrate that a GAP domain can contribute to activation of a small GTPase. Furthermore, cleavage furrow ingression is sensitive to the balance of contractile forces and cortical tension.

The president indicated to reporters during a meeting with lawmakers at the White House Tuesday that he's open to changes to his request for congressional authorization for strikes. He said he's serious about consulting with Congress, as long as the resolution sends a clear message to Syrian President Bashar Assad and hampers his ability to use chemical weapons.
Obama said he wants the American people to know, quote, "This is not Iraq, and this is not Afghanistan." He said action in Syria will be limited and proportional.
The meeting in the White House Cabinet room was attended by congressional leaders from both parties in the House and Senate.

Weekend Open Forum: Have you met anyone famous?
Facebook and the University of Milan conducted a study earlier this year to determine the validity of the "six degrees of separation" concept – that each person on the planet is only six steps away, by way of introduction, from anyone else. You know, the whole "friend of a friend" bit. The study concluded that users of the social networking site are actually only separated by 4.74 degrees.
Modern communication and transportation methods make it easier than ever for individuals to get out and meet others. In fact, it's highly likely that you've even met someone of significance in your lifetime – perhaps a former president, music artist, philantropist, influential businessman, actor or pro athlete.
I've met a few noteworthy people in my relatively short lifetime. I bumped into comedian Jay Leno at a monthly car show during a vacation to Los Angeles several years ago. While in college at the University of Mississippi I had the opportunity to meet eventual New York Giants quarterback and eventual Super Bowl MVP Eli Manning. During that same year I lived in the athletic dorm next door to one of the nicest guys I've ever met – current San Francisco 49ers linebacker Patrick Willis.
Whoever it is for you, we want to hear about it in this week's Weekend Open Forum!

Got something to say? Post a comment-
I got to meet Scott McNealy at a keynote speech.
His son's go to my school so... yeah, bound to meet some famous people there.
depends what's considered famous? my brother edited all of the back to the future movies. i've had friends that played pro basketball, and met quite a few players and coaches. road on team buses to and from the arenas, including the nba all star team bus.
i know a few local radio and tv personalities.
Nope did a see a few from a distance but never went close to talk to them.
Being in the hospitality industry you tend to meet a fair number of famous people. Mostly business or media (singer/songwriter/producer/film etc.). Outside of the work enviroment I once met and shared a short limo ride with Ozzy and Sharon Osbourne in London after he played at the Town & Country Club ( 1987 I think)
"depends what's considered famous? my brother edited all of the back to the future movies."
I had watched the first one like 20 times.
I've mostly met famous doctors, like NM Vasconscelos last winter.
I've met quite a few celebrities actually. I met Robert Englund (Freddy Krueger) at a book signing when I was about 8 years old.
I met Pierce Brosnan when I worked IT for the BMW plant in South Carolina (he was there for a party after one of his James Bond movies).
I sat across from Robert Goulet on an airplane a couple years before he died (RIP). Really nice guy, with great taste in vodka (he bought me a drink).
I also sat across from Al Franken and his blueberry of a spoiled brat son on an airplane about 9 years ago. Al Franken is an effing prick. Unfortunately his son will grow up to be just like him.
I met Don Rickles briefly after a show in Las Vegas in the late 90's. Very personable guy, and a true character.
I saw Nicholas Cage at a grocery store in New Orleans, but I didn't bother him other than to say hello.
I used to live 2 streets down from Angelina Jolie, and Brad Pitt in the New Orleans French Market (though I never actually saw them there once in the 2.5 years I lived there, and I walked down their street to my favorite restaurant almost every day).
I wouldn't actually call her a celebrity, but I shared a skybox with Clint Black's wife at a football game in Houston. (Back in the days of the Astrodome).
I think that about does it.
edit: I met, and raced against, Mark Martin at a Dave & Busters in Atlanta. He was there checking out a new 8 person Nascar game as a publicity stunt. I didn't beat him, but a 12 year old kid sitting next to me did.
As i'm living in Belgium (Europe), i don't get to meet a lot of American celibrities.
However, a couple months ago i got back from France with my gf, we went eating to a small cheap restaurant, known in Brussels for its excellent "Stoemp" (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stoemp).
I sat next to Jean-Claude Van Damme, who apparently goed eating there every time when he visits his mom, who still lives in Brussels.
Nice guy actually! Very modest, when some guys asked an autograph (i didn't try, respecting his privacy), he directly responded in French, went on the photo and made conversation with us.
I rode a rollercoaster at an amusment park in Ohio with Lebron James a few seats ahead of me! But I guess this isn't the "have you met any deuchbags" thread though is it....
I met Geddy Lee once while I was in Toronto. I think if you hang out on Bloor street enough you're pretty much guaranteed to run into him at some point.
I shook hands with Muhmmad Ali in Jackson MS. in 1986 at a Medgar Evers Blues Festival...I haven't washed my hand since..
I met Jesus and his family.
I met Linford Christie in my gym... he looked even bigger in real life than on TV. Also met Peter Andre in a Mayfair hotel, didn't try to talk to him though, he had quite a few ladies around him posing for pics.
I worked at NBC for 24 years and met my share of stars. I was very good friends with legendary NBC announcers Bob Teague.and Howard Reig, both class acts. While most stars where friendly, my pick for the biggest piece of crap had to be OJ Simpson. He was rude and totally obnoxious while there. Comedian Bill Murray was another difficult person to deal with. Tito Puente's daughter Audrey, now a New York Meteorologist was sweet as candy. Favorite moment was when I put my daughter in Duane "The Rock" Johnson's make up room and he showed up and surprised her before appearing on Conan O'brien. She was totally blown away. My division was phased out 2 years ago and I no longer work there.
I now Salma Hayek since age 8..she is from coatzacoalcos ver...my Home City...i now her before the brest implants and everything else jajajajajaja
I go to church with Don Bebe and his family. Very loving Christian family.
I met Phil Katz (of PKZip fame) many years ago in Chicago at a trade show, quirky but, a very nice guy...
Met tiger woods once, he lives about a quarter miles from me in Islesworth. Showed up on the 15th hole in a small helicopter.
I met Jesse Ventura once...so no..I have not.
I've met myself and I'm not famous yet, but will be very famous one day.
this website = ?
have met and talked to snoop dog in OKC when i was working at the ford center as security when i was 18 years old he was pretty cool and also met the guys from the RHCPs they were great. Also have met all the guys from Seether and Rise against after a concert where the signed my hat and a shirt and i got to shake there hands pretty cool stuff.
Billy Connelly, Robin Williams, Steve Martin, Judi Dench.
Working for MGM in the 70's, I met too many to mention. The only ones that stand out were the holier than thou ones. The majority were good people though.
I've had lunch with Harry Connick Jr., was in a jam session with Maynard Ferguson, and I don't know if this counts or not, but I have a cousin who has starred in PSA videos for Lifeway, and has starred in 2 or 3 music videos for rising country artists.
II also sat across from Al Franken and his blueberry of a spoiled brat son on an airplane about 9 years ago. Al Franken is an effing prick. Unfortunately his son will grow up to be just like him.
This explains why he's in politics.......!!!
I once shook Pee Wee Herman's hand outside a porno theater.

How did you get out of that sticky situation?
Besides me no, there's no other famous people more important than me so who gives a **** about them. :)
I grew up on Long Island, New York in a village named Northport. Harry Chapin was friends with our next-door neighbor, and one night while I was playing at their house he came to dinner when I was about 12 years old. I also went to school with Billy Joel's then stepson, Sean Small and my sister had the same babysitter that Billy Joel and Christie Brinkley used, whose name was Dawn.
Had drinks with bill Murray (and his mother) in my little town in Kansas..... Apparently he likes our gulf course. Cool guy real nice

Burl Ives.. You know, the husky voice narrator of Rudolph the Red nose reindeer fame... I had dinner with him in 1977 at a Boy Scout Jamboree
So you know Satan and his then as well... Cool...
Burl Ives.. You know, the husky voice narrator of Rudolph the Red nose reindeer fame... I had dinner with him in 1977 at a Boy Scout JamboreeHe's a singer too! Surely you've heard, "Holly Jolly Christmas"?
I've met in no particular order: Robert F. Kennedy, Sandy Baron, **** Clark, Harvey Keitel, Ed McMahon, Spike Lee, George Benson, Peter Brown, Sharon Stone, Al Sharpton, Cissy Houston, Susan Sarandon, Elliot Gould, **** Gregory, Ollie Woodson, Mark Gastineau, Ed Kranepool, Don Clendenon, Bobby Murcer, Lew Alcinder, Gilbert Gottfried, and David Patterson. I'm sure there's more but that's all I can think of right now. Some I've held good conversations with while others I just shook their hand, smiled and made nice!
I met Gonzo from the Arizona Diamond backs world series champion team when I worked at burger king in the drive through. He only had 100$% bills and drove a hummer. I did not recognize him and told him we don't take 100's so he left and never mentioned who he was. When he was driving away I was like oh shit thats gonzo! The people behind him ran to his car and got a auto graph.
I met Nelson Mandela back in the 90s in Atlanta and comedian George Burns on a flight to hawaii
I've met quite a few assassins, exterminators, cleaners and hitmen, not to mention their support teams(recon squads, assault teams, etc.) They prefer to remain anonymous and invincible, so if you drag them out from the cold... you get a broken wrist for starters...
I met someone famous every day I wake up and look in the mirror ..
Had a two hour breakfast with Jerry Van **** in a hotel... sad guy.
A few but I'm guessing at a convention doesn't count.
I think it would count if you actually met them and not just saw them.
I used to be the Operations Manager for a major airline at SeaTac International Airport. Because of that, I met a slew of celebrities - pro athletes, movie stars, politicians, you name it. During my 20 years in the military I also met 3 U.S. President's and a number of high-ranking foreign politicians.
Didn't do me any good - I'm still broke...LOL. :p
met one or two famous people, but my best is the XO of HMS conquerer, who sank the belgrano in falklands.
I went to an occupy wallstreet protest and saw anne hathaway standing right next to me. I wanted to say something buy my jaw dropped instead
pres. nelson mandela
A couple of years ago, at our company's Christmas party in Santa Fe, NM, I met and had drinks with Liam Neeson. Very cool guy. While I was in the Navy, during the filming of "the Hunt for Red October," Sean Connery joined us in our office for a couple of hours. Another cool guy.

Yes, similar plants.
They obviously snowboarded down the same mountain and must have hit similar plants, duh.
on Dec 2, 2008 at 10:54 am
Yup, the similar plants are the ones that they put into the soft tacos and pass off as lettuce! They spray it with a weed killer first. Just in case...duh...

It's pants you morons not plants. Learn how to read first before commenting
on Dec 3, 2008 at 12:34 pm
The article DID state quite clearly "plants" for the first day, which is when these readers posted. Their comments regarding "plants" may have been silly, but they did provide some necessary proofreading service for the article.

On the nose, buddy.
As for Teacher,
Guess which hat you get to wear in the corner...
on Dec 3, 2008 at 9:33 pm
Thanks, PJ. I can understand if Teacher was temporarily befuddled, but not her/his strong reaction, calling people morons. Sure, she/he came in after the fact, not realizing that this was yet another case of a typo/mis-statement on the part of the Weekly, but to lash out and call people morons before asking for clarification when you step into a situation mid-stream is really out of line.
on Dec 4, 2008 at 12:55 am
and can you tell me again why they are putting another b.a.r.t. stop over by the mall??? for us to have more crime then what we are already receiving at and around the mall.

Girl With No Voice, you've hit the nail on the head and read my mind.

Gril With No Voice aaaaaaand Brian. You two have both read my mind, as well. What is happening to Pleasanton is disgusting, and I know alot of that is due to this city being so easily accessible via BART.

Definition of tritanope in English:
Syllabification: trit·an·opePronunciation: /ˈtrītnˌōp
- A person suffering from tritanopia.More example sentences
- People with congenitally weak 'blue' cone response, anomalous tritanopes, are virtually nonexistent.
- Deuteranopes lack the middle-wave ` green' receptors, and tritanopes lack the short-wave ` blue' sensitive receptors.
- Only the much more uncommon protanopes and tritanopes suffer from a loss of sensitivity with respect to one of their groups of spectrally selective photoreceptors.

Here's What Our Customers Are Saying
Lovely Design
Something Blue Save the Date Magnets Vintage scroll work draws the eye to the beautiful photo and lettering. The font and accent colors work well with the contrast of the surrounding design. I loved being able to customize the style and color. Production time was speedy and I received my save-the-date magnets exactly when Magnetstreet said I would. I recommend this vendor and product. I also purchased the mounting card and return address labels. It makes a beautiful ensemble and my email box is filling up with compliments!
Beyond my expectations.
Ritz & Romance Save the Date Magnets I found myself looking at cards that were from another decade so I checked the internet and found Magnet Street. As soon as I saw the designs I knew I was in the right place. The prices were reasonable and I happened to get special discount when it came time to order. I picked out 8 for my daughter to look at and right away she loved one but the color wasn't right. In moments I changed it to what she wanted and it was a done deal! We love that we have a beautiful unique card that matches her wedding colors. Nothing was easier than downloading my daughter's engagement photo for the "save the dates". I did have some questions and was able to talk to our personal advisor several times, mostly just to calm my fears because the instructions were very easy. Everything came today and they are an excellent quality, packaged in a keepsake box. They are another component of a wedding that will be perfect from start to finish. Thank you Magnet Street!
Love these Save the Date magnets
Something Blue Save the Date Magnets These Save the Date magnets are super cute! I got so many compliments from all my friends and family.
Decent for the price
Vintage Blossoms Save the Date Magnets We wanted magnets for our save-the-dates, but didn't want to spend too much money, so these fit the bill perfectly. There were dozens of designs to choose from and when we finally decided on "vintage blossoms" we thought the customizable options were amazing. It took a bit to find the exact shades of colors we were looking for, so it was great that we could see what the finished product looked like at each step. The magnets themselves were exactly what we expected, perhaps even sturdier. Overall, we are very happy with the product.
we loved our save the date magnets
Fall Treasures Save the Date Magnets Great service and quality. We are so excited to share these with our family and friends!
