Ketchup 12 - 14 oz. Bottles / Case
- Quantity Discounts!
Buy 1 - 2 | $13.49/Case |
Make sure that your concession stand, restaurant, or cafeteria offers ketchup—the classic condiment your guests cannot do without! This ketchup includes refreshing 100% natural tomato flavor, leaving out all artificial flavors and preservatives. It's a good source of Lycopene, an antioxidant found in cooked tomatoes.
The smooth consistency and tangy, sweetened flavor of ketchup makes a perfect pairing with many offerings, especially deliciously crispy fried foods. Ketchup is an essential, age-old accompaniment to hamburgers, hot dogs, and fries. Though ketchup is high in demand, its consistency is perfect for dispersing through condiment dispensers and pumps that can easily serve all of your guests. At your restaurant, try incorporating ketchup into barbeque rubs or glazes for something new!
The convenient size of this ketchup bottle can be placed on individual tables of your restaurant or diner, so your customers can apply the perfect amount to their foods. Serve fresh-from-the-vine, natural tomato taste with ketchup that will keep your customers reaching for more!
Sold (12) 14 oz. bottles per case.

A signiture brand ketchup bottle at low cost. sign me up for it. When you have to leave ketchup bottles in the tables, it becomes time consuming to keep trying to refills reusable containers. At this price, its no problem.
Roelh L. Posted on 10/16/2012
While is may be a lesser known type of ketchup, it is just as tasty, with an even more satisfying price too go with it.
Jennifer M. Posted on 08/22/2012
The Del Monte Ketchup 12-14 oz. Bottles/CS. Is the best flavored ketchup. We care about the brand and the taste, so our customers will return. I like the bottles so the ketchup dosen't have time to go sour sitting out on the tables.We sure go through alot of bottles and they are recicable.
Angela H. from Harrison Familey Restaurant Posted on 06/20/2012
The Del Monte ketchup is a great condiment to use by itself (as a ketchup) or in with other ingredients (to make sauces with). The price is good and the size is convenient, since it can be placed as an individual bottle on the tables for the customer's convenience, because it is much easier to use a bottle than a bunch of 9ml plastic pouches.

The Svetlana 6L6 Medium tubes have the classic Sylvania STR sound.
Soft, medium, and hard style descriptions refer to break up modes of the tube for an overdriven guitar signal. Soft-rated tubes break up easier and have the least headroom, yielding a heavier, harder distortion. In comparison, hard-rated tubes must be driven harder to yield a distortion which typically ends up being thinner and warmer sounding distortion, while medium-rated tubes fall in between.

Student films are judged by Northwestern faculty, alumni and film professionals from around the country. "This is a great opportunity for students to produce creative and engaging videos and receive feedback from professionals in the industry," said Ann Sorenson, MFA, associate professor of communication and festival director. "As the festival grows, so does the level of quality and professionalism in the films that the students are producing." The top films in each category are shown at the festival. Each film is required to be less than eight minutes in length and will be judged by a panel of experts and professionals in the film, television and theatre industry.

Over the past decade, no investment has shined quite as brightly as gold.
If you had invested $10,000 in gold bullion in January 2001, your 37.81 ounces of the precious metal would have been worth more than $69,000 by Sept 1, 2011. That beat the pants off stock investments. Vanguard Total Stock Market Index (VTSMX), for example, returned an annualized 3.6% over the same period. Bond returns, while better, didn't hold a candle to the nearly sevenfold run-up in the price of gold. And many experts believe the metal's price will go higher.
Yet even many of the most enthusiastic advocates suggest that investors dedicate just a fraction of their long-term portfolios to gold -- if any at all. The reason: Gold is a great hedge against "black swans" -- unexpected and catastrophic financial events. But when times are good, investments in gold typically go bad.
That's because the metal produces no earnings and doesn't offer a dividend yield. It appreciates or depreciates based on supply and demand. Right now, demand is high, thanks to a decade of rotten stock prices, a souring economy and worries about the value of currencies in a world where the list of over-leveraged governments is long and growing. Moreover, interest rates are so low (actually negative in many instances on an inflation-adjusted basis) that the metal's lack of yield doesn't hinder buyers.
Some central banks in developing countries, such as China and South Korea, have also started buying gold, boosting demand. But in normal times, the bulk of demand comes from jewelry manufacturers.
Good times are bad for gold
When world economies are stable and investment returns in stock and bond markets appear attractive, gold simply can't compete, and its price tends to languish. Indeed, during the booming 1980s and 1990s, the metal's price did nothing but fall. "It's a defensive hedge," says David Kudla, the chief investment strategist at Mainstay Capital Management. "People buy gold to hedge against inflation, against deflation, against economic or political uncertainty. We have all of those concerns -- and real concerns about the debasing of currencies worldwide right now."
Kudla expects gold prices to keep climbing until the U.S. government gets serious about cutting the deficit and entitlement programs -- and he has little hope that will happen soon. Still, he says, investors should hold no more than 15% of their assets in gold, and they should buy only when the price dips, because the metal's price is historically high. For example, gold dropped 3%, to $1,818 an ounce, on Sept. 7, a day on which the Dow Jones Industrial Average ($INDU) surged 2.5%
The metal is a good portfolio diversifier, because its price tends to move in the opposite direction of stock prices -- and often against bond prices, too, says the Tony Roth, the head of wealth management strategies at UBS. He predicts that gold will fetch $2,200 an ounce in 12 months and could be worth as much as $2,500 an ounce. And yet he's not a fan. Says Roth: "Gold does not produce income; it has very little commercial value. It really only has psychological value. We don't think that it's going to hold up over the long term." That said, in these uncertain times, Roth thinks that nervous investors might want to hold anywhere from 5% to 20% of their portfolios in gold for "downside protection."
If you're ready to dive in
There are many ways to buy gold. You can pick up coins, bars, gold-mining stocks and exchange-traded funds that hold gold bullion. However, most experts prefer ETFs. The reason: Mining stocks are affected by many factors other than the metal's price, including stock market conditions and the company's management. That can make individual stock prices considerably more volatile than those of the metal itself -- and gold prices are plenty volatile on their own.
However, you can bet on the sector without betting on a single mining company by investing in a mutual fund such as Tocqueville Gold (TGLDX), which invests mostly in gold companies and other precious-metals mining stocks. Over the past year (through Sept. 2), the fund, managed since its 1998 launch by John Hathaway, returned 29.2%, beating the average precious-metals fund by 7 percentage points. Over the past 10 years, the fund returned a stunning 28% annualized, beating its peers by an average of 4.2 points per year.
Meanwhile, the trading and storage costs for owning bullion as either bars or coins can be significant. Dealer markups and shipping and storage costs can shave the typical investor's return by 10% to 15%.
Exchange-traded funds, on the other hand, can buy in bulk and hold bullion on behalf of investors, so there's no need to pay fees for a safe-deposit box. The two top gold ETFs are SPDR Gold Shares (GLD), which boasts $72 billion in assets and charges 0.40% in annual fees, and iShares Gold Trust (IAU), which holds just over $10 billion in assets but charges annual fees of only 0.25%. I prefer the latter because of its lower expenses.

The Jersey girl-turned-Brooklyn-based singer-songwriter hits the stage at Town Hall tonight with some musical friends, including Thurston Moore, Aaron Dessner, Jenn Wasner from Wye Oak, and Peter Silberman from Antlers. Says Flavorpill.com, "Van Etten's ascension to indie-folk-rock goddess reached a new level when she teamed with Aaron Dessner of the National, signed to Bon Iver's label Jagjaguwar, and released 'Tramp,' her sullen, rich, and evocative third album."

The Waves
The Waves | |
1st edition cover
Author | Virginia Woolf |
Cover artist | Vanessa Bell |
Country | United Kingdom |
Language | English |
Genre | Experimental novel |
Publisher | Hogarth Press |
Publication date
October 8, 1931 |
Pages | 324 |
The Waves, first published in 1931, is Virginia Woolf's most experimental novel. It consists of soliloquies spoken by the book's six characters: Bernard, Susan, Rhoda, Neville, Jinny, and Louis.[1] Also important is Percival, the seventh character, though readers never hear him speak through his own voice. The soliloquies that span the characters' lives are broken up by nine brief third-person interludes detailing a coastal scene at varying stages in a day from sunrise to sunset.
As the six characters or "voices" alternately speak, Woolf explores concepts of individuality, self, and community. Each character is distinct, yet together they compose a gestalt about a silent central consciousness.[2] Bernard is a story-teller, always seeking some elusive and apt phrase (some critics see Woolf's friend E. M. Forster as an inspiration); Louis is an outsider, who seeks acceptance and success (some critics see aspects of T. S. Eliot, whom Woolf knew well, in Louis); Neville (who may be partially based on another of Woolf's friends, Lytton Strachey) desires love, seeking out a series of men, each of whom become the present object of his transcendent love; Jinny is a socialite, whose Weltanschauung corresponds to her physical, corporeal beauty; Susan flees the city, in preference for the countryside, where she grapples with the thrills and doubts of motherhood; and Rhoda is riddled with self-doubt and anxiety, always rejecting and indicting human compromise, always seeking out solitude (as such, Rhoda echoes Shelley's poem "The Question"; paraphrased: I shall gather my flowers and present them—O! to whom?). Percival (partially based on Woolf's brother, Thoby Stephen) is the god-like but morally flawed hero of the other six, who dies midway through the novel on an imperialist quest in British-dominated colonial India. Although Percival never speaks through a monologue of his own in The Waves, readers learn about him in detail as the other six characters repeatedly describe and reflect on him throughout the book.
The novel follows its six narrators from childhood through adulthood. Woolf's novel is concerned with the individual consciousness and the ways in which multiple consciousnesses can weave together. The difficulty of assigning genre to this novel is complicated by the fact that The Waves blurs distinctions between prose and poetry, allowing the novel to flow between six not dissimilar interior monologues. The book similarly breaks down boundaries between people, and Woolf herself wrote in her Diary that the six were not meant to be separate "characters" at all, but rather facets of consciousness illuminating a sense of continuity. Even the name "novel" may not accurately describe the complex form of The Waves.[citation needed] Woolf herself called it not a novel but a "playpoem". Woolf explored the role of "ethos of male education" in shaping public life, and included scenes of bullying in the first days of school.[3]
Marguerite Yourcenar translated The Waves into French over a ten-month period in 1937. Of Woolf, whom she met at that time in Bloomsbury, Yourcenar said: "I do not believe I am committing an error, however, when I put Virginia Woolf among the four or five great virtuosos of the English language and among the rare contemporary novelists whose work stands some chance of lasting more than ten years."

Oregon Lottery® new Problem Gambling Awareness Ads
Campaign runs during Problem Gambling Awareness Day – Sept. 29
September 26, 2011 - Salem, Ore. -
The Oregon Lottery launches a new problem gambling awareness campaign today with two new TV ads. The ads are part of the Oregon Lottery's ongoing program to provide information to Oregonians about the issues surrounding problem gambling and the help that is available throughout the state. Also included in the campaign are radio ads, billboards, and Web messages.
Both TV ads have a strong, positive message with one focusing on the internal struggle problem gamblers feel, while the other focuses on getting your life back. "The ads will be relevant to both problem gamblers and their significant others." said Carole Hardy, the Lottery's Assistant Director for Marketing who also serves as chair of the Oregon Council for Problem Gambling. "Additionally, the messages are especially intended to make an emotional connection directly with problem gamblers."
To create the ads, the Oregon Lottery worked with key Oregon problem gambling treatment and prevention experts. "The goal is to increase the number of Oregonians who call to seek treatment for a gambling problem," said Hardy. "Each ad promotes the Problem Gambling helpline and Web site to increase awareness that Oregonians there is 24-hour, seven-day-a-week access to counselors who can help them find free treatment programs." The Web site also offers a chat feature allowing people to interact directly with a helpline counselor online.
September 29 has been proclaimed by Governor Kitzhaber as Problem Gambling Awareness Day. Oregonians for Gambling Awareness Organization (OGAO) led the effort to have the day recognized and to shed even further light on problem. "We applaud the work OGAO does to promote problem gambling awareness and helping problem gamblers seek treatment," said Hardy. The OGAO is not affiliated with the Oregon Lottery.
Since the Oregon Lottery began selling tickets on April 25, 1985, it has earned over $7 billion for economic development, public education, state parks and watershed enhancements. For more information on the Oregon Lottery visit

the guy is extremely pathetic as a commentator. waaay too biased. it's almost sad. maybe someone should tell him to lay off the weed and he wouldn't be so homotional. he has to go.
either that or give us the option to watch without commentary and just the ring and crowd noise. that is even better than being at the fight imo. |

If you want to complain about Jim Lamply's bias calls in certain fights, you can Word Process a letter to the head of HBO's Sports Department. It is probably better than sending e-mail. Be professional and cite specific examples of Jim's bias during his calls in fights.
Copy this link into your letters, it is good evidence, showing how Jim's biased favoritism of Manny Pacquiao in the Timothy Bradley fight may have influenced the public into seeing a one-sided fight, which was a lot closer than Jim called: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YUw-FoGDWU8 If you can cite maybe 3 good examples of Jim Lamply's bias in fights and if enough people respond professionally, maybe the head of HBO Sports will be able to talk to Jim and have him review some footage. A one-page letter would be good if you choose to contact HBO Sports: Here is the address: Mr. Ken Hershman HBO Sports, President 1100 Avenue of the Americas New York, NY. 10036 Don't just come out and say that Lamps sucks. Instead point out how his commentary has changed over the past decade from excited, professional commentary to a favorable bias for the HBO contracted fighter. This disrespect that Jim showed after the Garcia win with the above comment, cite that too. Give like 3-5 good instances of Jim's biased and unprofessional views in recent years. Maybe if enough people see the same things, Jim might settle down and be more neutral in his commentary. This might help. Jack |

Coming off a successful weekend trip to Ohio with his team, South Charleston football Coach Donnie Mays said the Black Eagles have grown significantly during the three-week out-of-season coaching period.
"Our kids looked very good. We had no idea we'd perform as well as we did," Mays said after SC went 6-1 at the Under Armour Ohio 7-on-7 tournament at Dublin Coffman High School in suburban Columbus on Saturday.
"Ohio's got a great reputation for high school football. We wanted to go out there, get our kids some exposure and see how we'd do," Mays said.
SC reached the semifinals of the tournament before poor weather kept it from completing its game against Kenton High. The winner would have moved on to the finals to face Zanesville.
"It was a great day for our kids," Mays said.
The success has been fairly common for SC during the three-week period. Much of that optimism emanating from the program can be attributed to rising sophomore quarterback Kentre Grier (6-foot-2, 185 pounds), who Mays said has grown another inch and put on 10-15 pounds of muscle since the end of the Black Eagles' 2012 season.
The team ended 2012 with a 6-4 record but out of the Class AAA playoff field.
"A lot of his improvement has been in the mental part of the game," Mays said. "Being able to compete in all the 7-on-7s we've gone to, he's gotten a lot of different looks at defenses and has learned a lot."
Grier completed 82-of-122 passes for 1,549 yards, 17 touchdowns and one interception in five starts last year. He entered the lineup in relief of starter Jon Alexander to start the second half of SC's 20-17, come-from-behind win against Capital in Week 5.
Grier never left the lineup and Alexander left SC to enroll at Hargrave Military Academy. Alexander has served as the quarterback at George Washington during the three-week period.
Mays estimated that Grier has thrown close to 700 passes in the first two weeks of the out-of-season period. SC wraps up its 7-on-7 tour Tuesday at Morgantown High School.
SC's top receivers - rising seniors Kevin Forrest (6-1, 180) and Marquel Hampton (5-10, 170) - also return from 2012. Forrest was a Class AAA All-State selection and caught 43 passes for 1,054 yards and 10 TDs as a junior. Hampton had 40 receptions for 602 yards and eight TDs.
Rising sophomore Fred Crozier (5-9, 160) has also emerged as a potential threat. Mays said Crozier has actually led SC in receiving during summer competitions.
Still, the experience supplied by Forrest and Hampton has proven critical to Grier's growth, the first-year coach said.

Review: Roll the dice and reach 10,000 points in Ten Thousand Solitaire for Mac
Based on a two-player dice game originally titled Ten Thousand, single-player game Ten Thousand Solitaire for Mac seems to apply the similar rules but is packed in a rather basic and unattractive package. The goal of this dice game is to get to 10,000 points before running out of rolls, but its unattractive interface and not too enticing gameplay left us confused and uninterested.
Ten Thousand Solitaire for Mac downloads quickly, and no installation beyond unzipping the downloaded file is necessary. The design of this game is minimal. A small gray window, black text, white buttons, and red squares … Read more

putting a 460 in place of a 6.9
well I dont feel like trying to find more 6.9 parts, I dont know much about diesels, so I was wondering if a 460 would just drop in and bolt to the tranny?? it is a 4 speed no overdrive
September 3rd, 2007, 04:53 PM | #4 |
FORD The Best Never Rest
From what i understand the 6.9 and 460 use the same bellhousing. The 6.9 has an adapter ring to mate to the tranny. You also need to think about accessory brackets and fuel lines. Along with all that extra wiring.
September 3rd, 2007, 11:37 PM | #5 |
Can't lose with 42s
Fuel lines will be a piece of cake...Just use a ford inline fuel pump and a regulator if you are running a carb...probably just plug the return line or even utilize it if you are doing an EFI 460...
6.9s aren't my favorite engine so I don't blame you for wanting to swap You can always use the wanted section here to source all of the parts to do it...I'm sure the guys here got what you are looking for |

National view: Politicians must provide answers to deficit problems
With the federal government running annual deficits in excess of $1 trillion, voters must demand realistic solutions from the candidates. However we choose to do it, we need to balance spending and revenue.By: Paul Hansen, Duluth News Tribune
With the federal government running annual deficits in excess of $1 trillion, voters must demand realistic solutions from the candidates. However we choose to do it, we need to balance spending and revenue.
This will require some tough choices. Our aging nation is undergoing an unprecedented demographic transformation and a permanent rise in the cost of programs such as Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid. Moreover, special tax breaks alone now cost in excess of $1 trillion per year in lost revenue.
There is no plan to pay for this other than running up the national debt. Some say our political system only responds to a crisis. Doing nothing now, however, would be an act of fiscal and generational irresponsibility. Without constructive action soon, our leaders will get their crisis and all Americans will pay.
One viable prescription for a "grand bargain" on deficit reduction rests on a fundamental compromise: Democrats agree to a structural change in Medicare that will reduce projected spending and Republicans agree that a portion of new revenue from economically efficient tax reforms can go to deficit reduction.
Success, both politically and economically, will require both spending cuts and new revenue. The problem is too big to be solved with ideological purity. That was the guiding premise behind the well-respected report by Alan Simpson and Erskine Bowles, co-chairmen of the National Commission on Fiscal Responsibility and Reform in 2010. This also was the conclusion of the CEOs of 80 big-name companies who recently released a statement calling for both spending cuts and increased revenue from tax reform.
So far, both presidential campaigns have missed the mark.
President Obama's budget relies on both spending cuts and tax increases to bring the deficit down. In that sense, everything is on the table. The Obama budget stops short, however, of the structural changes needed to keep the debt from rising to more unsustainable levels. After 10 years, the debt would actually be higher relative to the size of the economy.
The Ryan plan that Mitt Romney supports claims to reduce the debt faster than Obama. But Ryan's plan resorts to implausible assumptions to get there. Spending on everything other than Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid and defense would virtually disappear in the coming years — as would many popular tax breaks that are defended by powerful Republican constituencies. For all this pain, the Ryan/Romney budget doesn't get back to balance until 2040. This budget inadvertently demonstrates how unlikely it is that an exclusive focus on spending cuts can get the federal budget back on a sustainable track.
During this campaign, my Concord Coalition offered on our webpage "Key Questions Voters Should Ask Candidates about Our Nation's Fiscal Future." They included the following five straightforward questions:
President Obama, Gov. Romney and members of Congress could show leadership by providing some real answers to these questions to Minnesotans and to all Americans.
Paul Hansen of Jackson, Wyo., is a former Minnesotan and now the western states regional director for the Concord Coalition, a nonpartisan group based in Arlington, Va., that's dedicated to education about the causes and consequences of federal budget deficits.
