Philippe Goetschel, Hon. Consul of Switzerland, reads the English translation of "Dayenu," it would have been enough, during the diplomatic seder. Petra Heussner-Walker, Hon. Consul of Germany, reads along next to him.
You haven't truly heard The Four Questions until you hear them recited in multiple languages. Most of us at our seders will hear them in two: The usual Hebrew and their English translations. But at the first of what is hoped to become an annual event, 14 dignitaries from consulates across the Puget Sound region as well as several religious bodies learned on March 18 how Passover night was different from other nights. But they heard it in French, from Consul General Denis Stevens of Canada and dean of the Consular Corps; in German from Hon. Consul Petra Walker of Germany; in Spanish from Hon. Consul Luis F. Esteban of Spain; and in Turkish from John Gokçen, hon. consul of Turkey and president of the Consular Association of Washington. Rabbi James Mirel of Temple B'nai Torah led Monday's diplomatic and interfaith seder, a program hosted by the Seattle chapter of the American Jewish Committee. Celebrating a feast of freedom on March 18 was fitting — the next day, noted keynote speaker Elena Poptodorova, marked the 70th anniversary of her country's effort to save its 50,000 Jews from the Nazis. This came at the same time, Poptodorova, Bulgaria's ambassador to the U.S., noted, that "11,343 were deported from Macedonia and Northern Thrace." The seder focused heavily on the Haggadah's theme of moving from slavery to freedom. Poptodorova spoke of Bulgaria's constant fight for freedom over its 1,600-year history, more than half of which was under slave rule, from the Byzantines to the Ottomans to the Nazis to 45 years of Communist rule. But, she noted, "we cannot spend our life dealing with issues of controversy that happened so many centuries ago." Yet freedom, she added, should not be taken for granted. "Freedom is just the first step. When you get freedom, you have to know what to do with it," she said. "Freedom is never easy, it's never smooth, it's never unconditional, it's never forever." As the representative of a country that only in the past 25 years has once again experienced freedom, Poptodorova knows firsthand the challenges of maintaining it: Building the institutions that will promote freedom, and fighting to ensure it doesn't go away. "It always comes at a price, it always comes as a sacrifice," she said. The AJC created a Haggadah for the event that included readings of articles of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights in addition to the standard telling of the story of the Exodus. Another seder comes on March 28, after the holiday begins, building on a biannual tradition in Olympia that brings legislators from both sides of the aisle to Temple Beth Hatfiloh. Lawmakers and many Jews whose holidays must come second to legislative work get together to break matzoh and put this feast of freedom into context with the work they're doing. On alternate years, when the session last three months, Passover almost always falls near the end when the legislators are working feverishly to meet the final bill cutoff. What originally began as a way to give the elected Jewish delegation a quick opportunity to celebrate the holiday has since expanded into a festive meal of more than 100 participants. Zach Carstensen, director of government affairs for the Jewish Federation of Greater Seattle, which plans and sponsors the event, said the seder is a good way to raise consciousness among lawmakers about people in the state who are constantly struggling to get by. "This year our focus is on, as we still are recovering from this recession, the struggles of people just trying to keep their heads above water, finding a good job, ensuring that their family has adequate health care, [and] adequate supports so [they] can be economically secure," Carstensen said. Carstensen noted that the story of moving from slavery to freedom resonates in many ways today, from the journeys of modern-day refugees to economic security. "It never ceases to amaze me that when we tell the Passover story all these thoughts come flooding back — the recognition that freedom and struggle often go hand in hand," he said. "I think if legislators can walk away with that then we've done a good job."

Tiger Blood
65 comments:
Sans jacket: Winning!
With the jacket: BI-winning!
Nice idea to loosen the seams on the side. It gives the tunic a loose, comfortable fit.
www.heartprintandstyle.blogspot.comI really like your tiger top. You are the second person in my blog reader with the same post title. Charlie Sheen is a drug.
My Heart BloggedLol, the title made me laugh...he is like a train wreck, you want to but you can't look away! Cute outfit, that jacket is adorable! :)
Check out my blog: Principessa GabriellaWow! You are so daring with your fashion. I wish I could take as many risks. I would probably never cut the seams of a top, but it looks great. I am going to have to start trying some things I wouldn't normally do, obviously! I especially love the necklace! Awesome.
www.curvycanadian.blogspot.comHi...I'm a new follower...and I know this maybe way more information that you need...but I LOVE YOU! I had been really depressed about my weight lately (feeling fat, and ugly, and worthless), and I just stumbled upon your blog and fell and head over heals in love with it! It makes me so happy! You ARE fabulous! And now I feel that same way too! I was born to a family of skinny tall gals (I'm the baby and the chubbiest), two of them were models before, and I was always called "mi gordita" (my little fat girl) by my dad...even though it was with love it did some damage when i grew up. but yeah...anywho...hahah TMI! But yes, I love you! You're inspirational, and I kinda started blogging recently (JUST THIS SATURDAY), and I thought whatever I'm just gonna do it I dont care if I feel fat in some of these photos...because I too am Young, Fat, and Fabulous:) Thank you!!!!
ReplyDeleteI posted this on Raindrops on Rosy as well, but I think it's important for all of Gabi's readers to look at this too, and thank her if she's had this kind of impact on you...
I am also the youngest and the chubbiest. We're all short in my family, so no one's modelled, but I did certainly always feel like the odd one out with my two older skinny sisters. I've recently begun to love my body. I used to wear clothes that would cover everything up and try to blend in so that no one would look at me, but now I've realized that I want people to look at me and think, wow, she looks GOOD!!! Gabi was the one who inspired this change in me too, and I have a lot to thank her for. She is one of the most important pioneers of fat acceptance and a fantastic role model for young women everywhere. Gabi, if you're reading this, you should be very proud of yourself - you've actually made a very important impact on the world. It's amazing. You've given me the confidence to not only accept my body, but to love it and display with an amount of pride that I had thought impossible. I'd love for you guys to come on over and look at my blog too. We need fantastic women like you on there! The URL is www.curvycanadian.blogspot.com. I really want to know what you think of it. Thank you for being such positive and wonderful women.You are definitely winning Miss Gabi. A true diva at heart. I follow your blog regularly and I have to admit that I'm addicted. Keep up the good work and keep inspiring young women across the globe. I heart you Gabi girl!
I'm new to this whole blogging thing, but check me out sometime at http://chubbydivaonadime.blogspot.comYou are freakin fabulous, can I just say that? I love love love your blog. You're so gorgeous and confident in your own skin and that's very inspiring to me and I'm sure, many other woman out there as well. Call me crazy but I'm going to try and look through your entire blog some time this week when I have time.
Now following :)You are very cute.Your outfit are awesome, specially your top & boot.
loose diamondokay, so i love fashion. well i'm more of one of those girls who loves to look but isnt the best at finding great pieces or being daring with what i wear but i try and people who know me know i like different things. i stumbled across your blog upon looking for someone else who is pluz size who was into fashion and i found you. its perfection and i've been sitting here drooling over your closet. i have so much love for everything you wear and every hairstyle. you make me want to try new things and be different. thank you for the inspiration today. keep being extremely fabulous.

I was watching the Sixers the other night and I thought to myself that I would hate for the Bobcats to be in that team's situation. They've just traded away Vucevic, Iguodala, Harkless and a 1st round pick for an injured temperamental Bynum who is in the last year of his contract, hasn't played a game all season and expects a max deal. Their situation sucks a fat one.
I would much rather have the Bobcats situation than the Sixers. We have youth, picks, once we shed Diop, Gordon, Tyrus we will have significant cap space and we have multiple first round picks in upcoming years. Our future is much more brighter than theirs.
Which team(s) do YOU think are in a clearly worse situation from a roster/cap space standpoint than the Bobcats?

Article Highlights
- Occupy Wall Street has failed to change attitudes; taxing the rich or tax reform appear not to be key issues for voters
- Be sure to check out this report on public opinion towards taxes by @AEI.
AEI Public Opinion Study on Taxes, 2012
Download PDF
Today, AEI releases its annual compilation of polls on attitudes toward taxes. This AEI Public Opinion Study looks at attitudes since the first questions were asked in the mid-1930s to today. The highlights this year:
* It does not appear that taxing the rich or tax reform will be key issues for voters this fall. Occupy Wall Street has done little to change attitudes toward taxing the rich, with long-standing support toward taxing them more remaining strong. On a related point, polls show solid support for the Buffett Rule.
* In questions asked by the Roper Organization between 1972 and 1992, between 72 and 80 percent said "high-income families" pay too little in taxes. In 1992, Gallup started asking whether "upper-income people" pay too little, too much, or the right amount in federal taxes, and 77 percent said they paid too little. That response has moved downward unevenly. In 2011, 59 percent said they paid too little. Most people say what they pay in taxes is "fair" or "about right."
* In our new section on the flat tax, we compare attitudes when Steve Forbes made a flat tax a key part of his 1996 presidential run to attitudes about Rick Perry's flat tax and Herman Cain's 9-9-9 plan. Many people don't have an opinion about a flat tax and generally prefer a graduated tax system.
* President Obama's marks on handling taxes were high early in his presidency. They dropped in late 2011 and have recovered a little in early 2012, with various polls indicating approval ratings between 36 and 45 percent. In the only poll we've found that matches Obama up with Romney on the issue, 49 percent say Obama would do a better job handling taxes, with 45 percent favoring Romney.

This program of quintessential NYCB ballets highlights the depth and breadth of the Company's repertory.
Requiring great energy, speed, and precision, the striking choreography for Kammermusik No. 2 echoes the intricacies of its modernist score with jagged lines and stylized gestures.
Danced to Pärt's solemn Spiegel im Spiegel by a couple dressed in simple attire on a sparse stage, After the Rain's pas de deux is a lovingly tender work full of heartfelt emotions.
One of Balanchine's earliest masterpieces, Concerto Barocco is music made visible with two elegant yet dynamic lead ballerinas each depicting one of the instrumental soloists in Bach's double violin concerto.
This intricate, winding pas de deux finds a man and woman intertwined around one another as they push and pull their way through an accelerated, buzzing score by Rouse.
Rubies sends its dancers racing across the stage like lightning to Stravinsky's jazz-inflected piano capriccio, emphasized by a sharp attack and sassy style.
The performance of NYCB 2014 - Access on the date of Thursday, January 23, 2014 is in the past. Please select a different date or change your selection.

Yesterday was my turn to bring snacks to my Cuban salsa class -- the dance that is. After scanning dozens of recipes, I couldn't find what I wanted so I created this one. After watching my classmates tip the bowl, I decided it was worth posting. While the ingredients are familiar, the ratio of tomatoes, beans and corn is quite different from the dozens already here. So easy, its a crowd pleaser.

Folk. Country. Blues. Rock ânâ roll. Bluegrass. In the 1960s and â70s, David Bromberg played it all, and in turn, the celebrated musician collaborated with everyone from Beatles to blues legends. The only problem arose when his albums entered the racks at record stores.
âThey never had the vaguest idea where to put me, and frankly, neither did I,â he tells The Tennessean.
Flash-forward to the 21st century, and Bromberg â after laying low for two decades â found himself playing bigger rooms than ever before, with an audience that was completely open to his eclectic style.
âI think that things have loosened up quite a bit,â he says. âFor one thing, just having a name for it helps.â
That name is âAmericana,â a musical term that was defined by Merriam-Webster two years ago as âa genre of American music having roots in early folk and country music.â But a quick look at the lineup of this yearâs Americana Music Festival & Conference â which returns to Nashville this Wednesday through Sunday â show its borders extending to blues, gospel, rock and beyond.
This week, Bromberg and more than 130 acts inspired by those musical traditions will take over nearly a dozen Nashville venues for four nights of concerts, and many will share the stage at Ryman Auditorium for the annual Americana Honors & Awards show on Wednesday night.

Grief, Bereavement, and Coping With Loss (PDQ®): Supportive care - Health Professional Information [NCI] - Treatment
The following information concerns treatment of grief after the death of a loved one, not necessarily death as a result of cancer.
Normal or Common Grief Reactions
Some controversy continues about whether normal or common grief reactions require any intervention by medical or mental health professionals. Researchers disagree about whether credible evidence on the efficacy of grief counseling exists.[1,2,3,4] Most bereaved persons experience painful and often very distressing emotional, physical, and social reactions; however, most researchers agree that most bereaved persons adapt over time, typically within the first 6 months to 2 years. Thus, the question is whether it is wise to devote professional time to interventions for normal grief when resources are limited and the need for accountability is great.
One approach is to use a spectrum of interventions, from prevention to treatment to long-term maintenance care.[5] In this model, preventive interventions could be one of the following:
- Universal and targeted to all persons in the population.
- Selective and targeted to persons with known risk factors.
- Indicated for persons experiencing significant symptom distress.
In contrast, formal treatment of bereaved persons would be reserved for those identified as experiencing complicated or pathologic grief reactions. Finally, longer-term maintenance care may be warranted for persons experiencing chronic grief reactions.
Another approach has focused on families.[6,7] This brief, time-limited approach (four to eight 90-minute sessions over 9 to 18 months) identifies families at increased risk for poor outcomes and intervenes, with emphasis on improving family cohesion, communication, and conflict resolution. Adaptive coping, with efforts to strengthen family solidarity, and frequent affirmation of family strengths are emphasized.
In a randomized controlled trial,[8][Level of evidence: I] 183 (71%) of 257 families screened were identified as at risk for poor outcomes; 81 (44%) of these at-risk families participated in the trial. Family functioning was classified into one of five groups:
- Two functional groups:
- Supportive families.
- Conflict-resolving families.
- Three potentially dysfunctional groups:
- Sullen families.
- Hostile families.
- Intermediate-functioning families.
Participants classified as hostile (n = 19), sullen (n = 21), or intermediate (n = 41) were randomly assigned to either the treatment group or a no-treatment control group.[8]
Results showed modest reductions in distress at 13 months postdeath for all participants, with more significant reductions in distress and depression in family members who had initially higher baseline scores on the Brief Symptom Inventory and Beck Depression Inventory.[8] Overall, global family functioning did not change, yet participants classified as sullen or intermediate showed more improvement than those classified as hostile. Results recommend caution in dealing with hostile families to avoid increasing conflict in such families.[8]
Psychosocial Treatment of Complicated Grief
With the development of proposed diagnostic criteria for complicated grief (i.e., prolonged grief disorder), targeted interventions have been tested in two randomized controlled trials. Both studies are of interventions for bereaved persons whose loved ones died from mixed (not necessarily cancer-related) causes.

Guidelines for applying PUE metric completed
The latest recommendations for energy efficiency measurement and reporting completes the guidelines for applying the Power Usage Effectiveness (PUE) metric.
The Green Grid Association, together with The Data Center Metrics Coordination Taskforce, has announced its latest recommendations for energy efficiency measurement and reporting.
The new report, Recommendations for Measuring and Reporting Overall Data Center Efficiency: Version 2 – Measuring PUE at Data Centers, completes the guidelines for applying the Power Usage Effectiveness (PUE) metric, created and promoted by The Green Grid. The new information includes specific recommendations for how to measure and calculate PUE in mixed-use data center facilities and introduces a condenser water source energy weighting factor.
Alignment on these methodologies across the industry will lead to consistent and repeatable measurement strategies that allow data center operators to monitor and improve the energy efficiency when operating their existing data centers, or when designing new facilities. The task force's latest report represents the combined decision-making from the 7x24 Exchange, ASHRAE, The Green Grid, Silicon Valley Leadership Group, U.S. Department of Energy's Save Energy Now and Federal Energy Management Programs, U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's ENERGY STAR Program, U.S. Green Building Council, and Uptime Institute.
The following principles were reportedly agreed to:
- PUE, using source energy consumption, is the preferred energy efficiency metric for data centers.
- When calculating PUE, IT energy consumption should, at a minimum, be measured at the output of the uninterruptible power supply (UPS). However, the industry will continue to improve measurement capabilities so that measurement of IT energy consumption directly at the IT load (e.g., servers, storage, network, etc.) becomes the common practice.
- For a dedicated data center, the total energy in the PUE equation will include all energy sources at the point of utility handoff to the data center owner or operator. For mixed-use data centers, the total energy will be all energy required to operate the data center, similar to a dedicated data center, and should include cooling, lighting, and support infrastructure for the data center operations.

The world continues to wait for news concerning the mysterious Malaysia Airlines flight, MH370 that seemingly disappeared into thin air since March 8, 2014, as all the initial search and rescue efforts have proved fruitless. Plenty of people have already taken to the Internet to find out more about the developing situation, and this has also generated so much publicity for the keyword "MH370", that an eBay seller has actually had the audacity to profit from this tragedy by "flipping" the domain name MH370.com, slapping a $5,000 asking price on the domain name itself.
LG Electronics has just introduced their TV range for this year in South Korea, where you would have to wrap your mind around a total of 68 new models. Yes sir, with that many models available for purchase, it is truly a mind boggling experience, where among the 68 new models t be made available, they will include ULTRA HD TVs in various sizes that range anywhere from 49" to 105", making it the largest collection to date. Some of the new models would include LG's ground breaking 105-inch Curved ULTRA HD TV that has already garnered its fair share of fans, apart from the smaller 65", 55" and 49" curved 4K TVs.

K310 Washable Keyboard
Recommended Retail Price: S$59
Connectivity: wired USB
Compatible devices: Windows
Award: International CES Innovations 2013 Design and Engineering Awards Honoree
Chester Tan
The Logitech K310 is a durable keyboard that's easy to clean and dry. It can be submerged in approximately 30cm of water (more than any ordinary spillage) and has drainage holes at the back of the keyboard to allow for easy drying. Even after multiple washes, the characters on the keyboard would not fade as they are laser-printed and UV coated to ensure durability. The familiar layout of the F-keys and number pad are designed in a sleek manner, giving them a contemporary look that ensures your keyboard looks and feels good (to type). The K310 is really easy and handy to use as there is no software to install and allows you to access your 12 most-used applications with a single keystroke.
My review: There is no compromise with the K310. It contains the complete set of keys including number pad, and the key actions are responsive. I like how the key mechanism is elevated so there is no way any accidental liquid spills will get inside the keyboard. No mention about whether the keyboard can work underwater, though I suspect it could. Instructions clearly state that one should dry the keyboard before re-using.
One thing is for sure: with the K310, gone are the days of keyboards that accumulate dust and bacteria in between the key grooves. And no longer do you need to throw away a keyboard because it's dirty.

Home insemination instructions Artificial insemination is best performed just before ovulation occurs, the time when a woman's egg is released. This is the most fertile time of the menstrual cycle and usually occurs 14 days before the start of the next period. This does vary depending on the length and individuals menstrual cycle.
This fertile window can be detected by a change in body temperature, or a change in cervical mucus, however ovulation tests most accurately calculate the most fertile time and hence the right time for insemination to be performed. Undertaking Insemination at the correct time of the monthly cycle greatly improves the chance of successful conception.
Artificial insemination Clinic It is recommended that artificial insemination is performed at a HFEA regulated fertility clinic, whereby they will underatke all the nessessary health screening and infection testing on the donor. However if you are looking to enter into a co-parenting arrangement, with a donor who you have got to know well over a period of time, you may choose to consider home insemination, after completion of health screening tests. These home insemination kits are also useful for heterosexual couples who may be experiencing fertility problems and wish to enhance their chances of conception.
Home insemination risks It is important to understand that home insemination does carry risks of infection and that advice should be sought by a medical professional regarding infection screening prior to any inseminations. Single women who undertake home insemination using a known donor, need to be aware that the donor will be viewed as the legal father in the eyes of the law. It is therefore recommended that single women using a known donor who do not wish for the donor to be involved in the child's upbringing receive fertility treatment from a regulated fertility clinic. Home Insemination kits We provide a choice of 2 home insemination kits, standard and deluxe.
Standard Home Insemination Kit:
Deluxe Home Insemination Kit: Contains all of the above plus the following:

Finn (Adventure Time)
Finn from Adventure Time - an ethereal seemingly drug-induced take on a neoclassic cartoon character - 12 x 12 Acrylic on Canvas (9/3/2012)
Monday, July 30, 2012
This piece was inspired by the Luka Magnotta Case, which I was obsessed with for a few weeks due to the sheer insanity of the whole situation. "Boy starving for attention gets attention by hacking up another boy and video taping it". It's so sad and disturbing to think that the age of the internet can create these type of morally deprived, sick people.
The painting describes how I felt from head to toe.

Kicking It Hip Hop Style
July 19, 2012
© Flocabulary
Gone are the days of rainbow colored VW buses and good old School House Rock.
Today's kids are kicking it to hip-hop beats about Macbeth, the planets, weekly news, and the Civil War. Time to get jiggy with Flocabulary, hip-hop lessons set to music.
It's surprisingly awesome. Plus there's a lot more subjects than School House Rock: language arts, science, vocabulary, social studies, math, and the coolest, "the week in rap."
Check out some of my favorites and see for yourself.
On Cloud 9
Five Things (5 elements of a story)
Let Freedom Ring - MLK Rap Song
Many videos are free; the rest are subscription based. I think it's worth the money- because music helps kids (and us) learn. Think about all the song lyrics you know by heart -- decades later playing in your local supermarket, that get stuck in your head, and drive you crazy----aaaaaah! Channel your musical talents for good. No more Who Let the Dogs Out; start singing something from Flocabulary's You Tube channel or on Flocabulary's website. You'll be singing and getting smarter.
Come on, you know you want to rap about the American Revolution! Right?

Unfortunately I had the Hawaiian honey ale before this one, which killed my tastebuds. But I'll try this review anyway.
The beer's profile is a slightly above average wheat beer (hefeweizen), but with complimentary notes of vanilla and blueberries. The weizen character is timid with the bananna, clove, bubblegum, or other phenols; but emphasizing the American malt base of barley and wheat with a lemony, citrus note.
The vanilla gives a creamy, silky taste and feel while contributing an oat-like soothing smoothness. Very pleasant without dominating the weizen character.
Blueberries give a fruity, berry taste along with a tart, acidic note that adds complexity without causing confusion.
There is a lot going on with the flavors of this beer, making it nice, flavorful, and drinkable. The pint was easy to dispose of and I could probably have another if it were not time to hit the casino.

look: 3.5 | smell: 4 | taste: 4 | feel: 4.5 | overall: 4.5
Appearance: cloudy orange in color with some yellow highlights. Short 1/4" head falls quickly. No lacing develops.
Smell: tons of blueberries and vanilla.
Taste: finally a fruit wheat beer that doesn't taste fake. Blueberries, vanilla beans, wheat, and a mild bitterness make up a very refreshing beer.
Mouthfeel: lightly crisp at the start and finish. The vanilla and blueberries last long on the tongue which is uncharacteristic for the style. Light-medium in body.
Drinkability: very drinkable and refreshing. This is a lighter beer you can enjoy for dessert. Worth trying.

look: 2.5 | smell: 2.5 | taste: 2.5 | feel: 2.5 | overall: 2.5
Sample at the brewpub. This beer is a hazy yellow color with a thin white head that dissipates steadily. Stringy lacing. Mild honey and fruit in the nose. Light-bodied with a flavor similar to blueberry cough syrup. Some sweetness as well, but all around not very tasty. The finish is tart fruit and leaves some berry aftertaste. Overall I would not try this again.

Half finger head and no lacing on a cloudy dull golden body with a copper hue. Aroma as expected with blueberry and vanilla and mild grain and pale malt presence. Flavor is as expected as well with more blueberry and vanilla but I was surprised it wasn't too sweet which I thought would be the case. Light body and moderate carbonation. I saves this one for last because I thought it would be over the top and ruin my palate but it wasn't overdone and was actually well made for what it is.

Poured on-tap into a pint glass. The beer looks like a watered down wheat, but the smell is pretty impressive. There is a heavy dose of blueberry front and center on first smelling the beer. It also directly follows-up with the initial tastes, again heavy blueberry, but now combined with a creamy vanilla balance. There is also an undertone of spice (I think coriander) that keeps the sweetness from becoming overbearing. The flavor was well balanced and round, and it actually had an easy finish. I wouldn't be able to drink too much of it due to it's overall sweetness, but it is enjoyable.

4.65/5 rDev +29.9%
look: 4 | smell: 4 | taste: 5 | feel: 4 | overall: 5
Appearance: dark orange in color, small head, clear, moderate carbonation
Smell: blueberry and wheat--sort of like Sea Dog blueberry
Taste: blueberry jumps out, but then the vanilla and wheat cut in. There is almost a bubblegum taste to it.
Mouthfeel: sweet, medium bodied, smooth
Drinkability: If you like sweet desert beers, this one is excellent. This has got a lot more complexity than most fruit beer--although all is sweet. It also does not lose the beer taste. Excellent for the style--if not my favorite. I could session this especially in the summer.

This was not only the first sample I ever tried of what the Chicago Brewing Co. can do, but was also the first beer I had right after completing the most intense course I'd ever taken in my career, at a dental institution nearby. I seriously needed a beer by this point.
Served with a cloudy ochre body, slight violet tinge to it. Nice white foamy head with decent lacing. Sweet fruity nose, pungent citrus and blueberry, with soft vanilla in the background. Intense! The flavour starts with sweet yeasty wheat, where it is quickly joined by a rounded blueberry presence, with mild spice and discernable vanilla on the finish. Interesting the first couple of sips. But it becomes cloyingly sweet soon enough, and started reminding me of what it would be like to suck on the soaps from The Body Shop. Ironically enough the mouthfeel was rather soapy in texture. Flavour-wise it is an interesting concept, but I found it difficult to finish the mug. Still, had to try this unique seasonal while I had the chance.

Sampled on tap at the brewpub. This is basically a flavored version of their wheat beer.
This beer poured a cloudy, amber brown color with white foam that settled but clung to the inside of the glass. The smell was a very strong blueberry aroma (like blueberry pie) with a hint of malt in the background. The taste was dominated by sweet blueberries with a bit of bitterness in the finish. Perhaps a bit of vanilla was evident in the flavor. From the wheat component of the beer could be tasted some yeast and a touch of citrus in the finish. The mouthfeel was smooth and creamy and fruity with medium body and good carbonation. This was a good fruit beer, though very sweet and fruity. Enjoyable if you are in the mood for blueberry.

1st beer I had at this place, and in my opinion their best. Pours an attractive cloudy orange. Smell is as expected of blueberries, vanilla and some wheat. Taste is similar, and actually not too thin like most of their other beers. Creamy blueberry flavor with strong clove flavor and a hefeweizen yeastiness. Still a bit thin overall, but compared to their others, it's good.

Taste: ...and it tastes like a freakin' Marie Callenders pie. Strong blueberry flavor and lots of sweetness around it. I don't taste any vanilla in this beer but it is probably very well hidden by the berry sweetness. There is actually some maltiness at the end as the berry flavor subsides.
Mouthfeel: It's a bit sticky but smooth on the palate. Nothing offensive about this beer.
Drinkability: This is definately a unique beer. But it is unique more in a novelty sense than a well made beer sense. They pulled it off without much problem, but this couldn't be a daily drinker, it's just too damn sweet and fruity.

I dont know what it is about this beer but I cant get enough of it. I should say though I am a hef fan and this shares all of the great hef characteristics. Latest serving I'm reviewing off of was from a growler. Took it home and a few hours later I poured my first glass into a Chicago Brewery Pint glass (free w/ any pint there by the way!). Pours very hazy, good amount of head, and an amazing aroma. The standout smell, in my opinion, is the blueberries but the nice thing is they dont dominate the taste. You can clearly taste them but they're not overwhelming and add an interesting kick to the drink. Nice mouthfeel and very drinkable to a point, after two or so I think thats about enough. Best way to taste this is right from the bar. They'll pour it into an ice cold 14 or 22 oz glass, its not bad a little bit warmer but fresh at the bar into a cold glass its a real treat.

pours a cloudy sunset orange with a rocky white head. big spice comes off the nose as well as a nice dose of blueberries. taste wise? ill say of all the fruit beers i have had (save lambics) this has the biggest actual fruit taste i have encountered. HUGE blueberry pressence as well as a spicey ginger/pepper like bite (due to the vanilla bean?). quite different ending on a subdued hefe like finish. creamy mouthfeel that goes down nicely. a strange beer, fruity...spicey...smooth....i enjoyed it.

This beer poured a cloudy gold colour and had a solid aroma of sweet vanilla and blueberries. Just as it had smelled, all the flavours were there; it started off with sweet golden malts, phasing into a tangy blueberry, followed by a smooth vanilla finish. This beer seemed original and flavourful, yet not too overwhelming.
Would I buy this beer again? Probably.

I had a glass on tap and drank it over dinner at the brewpub. Found this to be a really enjoyable beer, and one that I've been craving more of ever since I got home. I should have filled a growler with it.
A nice very cloudy wheat beer, which looked quite seductive to me, as a hefe fan. The blueberry flavor is pretty dominant. I could not detect any vanilla flavor. What impressed me most was the excellent blending of the blueberry flavor with the wheat beer. I often find flavored or spiced beers to be 'forced' - you can taste the beer, you can taste the fruit or the pine needles or whatever, but it's like having two different tastes in the same glass. They don't really mesh very well. With this beer, the flavors mesh.
Someone else described this as like drinking pancakes, but I think that is a bit of an exaggeration.
A good, easy to enjoy beer, and pretty unique. The kind of of beer that could turn novices into brewpub fans.

Been a while since we've seen a good desktop deal. Why buy the Core i5 version for $640 when you can get the Core i7 XPS 8700 desktop for $615!? Windows 8.1, 8GB of RAM, and even an entry-level GT 635 thrown in makes this a solid deal.
The Dell XPS 8700 Haswell equipped desktop is now down to $650 at Dell Home. Lowest price ever and is $50 off last 2 weeks price of $700. Specs include a Quad Core i7-4770 (4th Gen) processor, GeForce GT 635 graphics, and 8GB RAM.
The well spec'd Dell XPS 8700 desktop got a $100 coupon code over the weekend dropping it to $700 - a new low by $50. The Radeon HD 7570 isn't a very impressive graphics card, but upgrade that and you've got yourself a reasonably priced gaming machine.
Dell's XPS 8700 with Haswell Core i7 is finally under the $700 mark thanks to a new coupon code which takes an additional $100 off the price. The 8700 comes stock with a Radeon HD 7570 which is pretty weaksuace, but you can always easily upgrade.

Hey Konrad, we actually don't ship anything. We just link to retailers with the best deals. You'd have to check with Dell on that one.
interested in the dell xps 8700 special edition haswell quad core i7-4770 with gtx 660, 16gb ram, blueray, 32 gb ssd cache, windows 7 pro [as above on this page]for $1,099.99. Wgen I click on this item, it indicates it has Windows 8. Can I get this with wondows 7 pro as stated? thanks!
Hey Greg sorry about the confusion and hassle.. it looks like Dell may have swapped out the OS on this system and its now Windows 8 only. No option for Windows 7 unfortunately... We checked Dell's product catalog and this is the only XPS 8700 with this price + coupon combo. I'm not a big fan of Windows 8 but with 8.1 its slightly easier to manage on some aspect, so your call on this...
Thanks. What is Dealzon?
Hey Greg. We're a price / deal comparison website on tech and gaming. Think of us as a newspaper classified. We list coupons/deals from Dell and other major manufacturers.

The Sarbanes-Oxley Act requires that the management of public companies assess the effectiveness of the internal control of issuers for financial reporting. Section 404(b) requires a publicly-held company's auditor to attest to, and report on, management's assessment of its internal controls. The AICPA has consistently urged implementation of Section 404(b) for all publicly held companies. Section 404(b) has led to improved financial reporting and greater transparency. The AICPA believes that all investors in public companies should have equal benefit of the same protections. Some small companies have argued that the regulatory cost and burden of having the assessment outweighs the benefit to investors. During consideration of the bills that became the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, there were several amendments offered that would have exempted a large number of public companies from section 404(b). Ultimately, there was an exemption enacted for non-accelerated filers (companies with less than $75 million in public float). These smaller issuers were never required by the SEC to comply with section 404(b) since enactment of Sarbanes-Oxley Act. There were also 2 studies required by Dodd-Frank. The first required the SEC to conduct a study on the burden caused by section 404(b) compliance for companies with a market capitalization between $75 million and $250 million. The SEC study recommended maintaining existing investor protections of Section 404(b) for companies with market capitalization above $75 million and encouraged activities that have potential to further improve both the effectiveness and efficiency of Section 404(b) implementation. Dodd-Frank also required the GAO to conduct a study to evaluate whether exempt issuers have fewer or more restatements, and how their cost of capital compares with issuers subject to section 404(b). The study is due by July 2013. Legislative Proposals
112th Congress Since January 2011 when the 112th Congress convened, there have been continuing attempts to increase the exemption level for companies subject to section 404(b). A number of bills have been introduced that would expand the Dodd-Frank exemption. The exemption levels in these bills range up to all companies with a market capitalization of up to $1 billion. In April 2012, The Jumpstart our Business Startups Act (JOBS Act) was signed into law. It would generally exempt a new public company from compliance with section 404(b) for the first 5 years it is a public company as long as it does not exceed certain market capitalization or revenue thresholds (called an Emerging Growth Company, or EGC). This Act extends an existing two-year regulatory delay in the implementation of section 404(b) for companies who have had an initial public offering. Importantly, it does not contain an exemption. The Act also contains two provisions urged by the AICPA. The first allows an EGC to opt-out from being treated as an EGC. The second makes it clear that existing public companies cannot take advantage of the EGC exemptions even if they otherwise meet the criteria (not exceeding the market capitalization or revenue thresholds and less than 5 years since the IPO). Additional information on these issues is contained in the AICPA's March 19, 2012, letter to the Senate. The bill was passed by both the House and Senate on large bipartisan votes and was signed by the President on April 5, 2012. It was originally introduced by Congressman Fincher (R-TN), and Congressman John Carney (D-DE) with the title, "Reopening American Capital Markets to Emerging Growth Companies Act of 2011," H.R. 3606. Other bills with various expanded exemptions have also been introduced in the House and Senate during this Congress. Congressman Ed Royce, a California Republican, offered an amendment during House Financial Services Committee consideration of the JOBS Act that would have exempted all public companies with a public float of less than $1 billion from the 404(b) requirements. He withdrew the amendment when promised that his proposal would be considered separately by the Committee later this year. The AICPA continues to fight all such efforts to reduce existing investor protections. Resources Copy of Legislation A copy of the JOBS Act, and all major Congressional actions leading to passage, is available on the Library of Congress's THOMAS website by searching by its bill number, H.R. 3606.

CHARLESTON, W.Va. -- Frank Beller came home from his elephant hunt without a trophy. Instead, he came home with something much more fulfilling - the knowledge he had put much-needed food in people's stomachs.
In a hunt sanctioned by the government of Namibia, Beller, 66, of Eleanor, killed a "food elephant" to provide meat for hundreds of hungry villagers. In the process, he discovered just how difficult and dangerous an elephant hunt can be.
"I'd been hunting in Africa four times before this last one," he said. "Most of the hunts were for [antelope, zebra and other] 'plains game.' The only dangerous game I'd killed was a Cape buffalo."
In the lexicon of African big-game hunting, the so-called "Big Five" - animals considered most difficult and dangerous to hunt - includes lion, leopard, rhinoceros, Cape buffalo and elephant.
Several of Beller's friends in the Dallas Safari Club had killed elephants, and hearing their experiences made him yearn for a similar adventure.
"My friends got me in touch with Karl Stumpfe, a professional hunter who guides in Namibia," Beller recalled. "They told me that hunts for non-exportable food elephants aren't as expensive or as difficult as hunts for trophy elephants. They said I probably wouldn't have to walk half a mile. At my age, that sounded pretty good."
Belle and his wife, Joyce, flew to Africa in late April. They found hunting conditions that were anything but easy.
"It was extremely dry," Beller said. "It hadn't rained since February. The water holes were all dried up. We basically were walking in dry, white, loose sand like you'd find on a sand dune at the beach. It was tough to get around."
The lack of water had driven the region's elephants to the only readily available source of moisture, the leaves of mopane trees. Finding the thirsty pachyderms as they shuttled between stands of trees became a frustrating game of hide-and-seek.
"The first day out, we hit some fairly fresh tracks and followed them," Beller recalled. "We followed them for five miles through that sand-dune sand but never found them. I thought I'd bitten off more than I could chew."
The next two days brought more of the same. Beller, Stumpf and their native trackers wandered the bush from daylight to dark but saw only the tracks of a leopard and some plains animals.
"Karl was worried, because he had 10 food-elephant permits and no water holes to attract elephants," Beller said. "But on the fourth day, our luck changed."
Early in the day, the hunting party found the tracks of a good-sized elephant herd.
"The trackers estimated there were 30 to 40 in the herd," Beller said. "We took off after them. We walked 7 1/2 miles in that doggoned loose sand. Right about the time I was starting to believe we'd never catch up to them, we bumped into them.
"They were about 60 yards away, but in that mopane cover we couldn't get a shot. So we circled around for a better angle. Well, the wind swirled, the elephants scented us and they took off."
Rather than have Beller walk 4 miles back to the car, Stumpf and his game scout made the hike and retrieved the vehicle.
"By then it was 3:30 or 4:00 in the afternoon," Beller said. "Karl said he'd like to see if the elephants had crossed a two-track [road] up ahead. He said if they had, the walk wouldn't be more than a mile and a half. I said OK."

Acetone will take it right off.
1 recommendation
Acetone used to be (and perhaps may still be, I dunno) a primary ingredient of finger nail polish remover.--nohup rm -fr /&
It still is [based on a Google search], is is also in paint thinner as well.
My use of Paint Thinner just helped to spread it around, it didn't remove any of it...
The correct answer has already been given several times - it's acetone.It's cheap and available at almost any hardware store or beauty supply store. I'll bet your wife already has some. A lot of nail polish remover has acetone in it still.I just looked at my wife's, and it says "100% Acetone".I have a can on the shelf from Home Depot specifically for cleaning up spray foam "incidents". It was $5.00.Her bottle from Sally Beauty was $1.59 (The same amount I got from HD for $5.00!!!).--If someone refers to herself / himself as a "guru", they probably aren't.

Expedition to Northern Tibet, Part 1: The Land of Charging Blue Bears
Why is it that when you are trying to be the quietest, you inevitably drop or bang something noisy? Well, at least that's my experience.
The ice that just cracked under my foot was like a window breaking.
The bear sleeping on the bank of the river exploded with a roar.
Within a few seconds it was covering the frozen ground towards us at break-neck speed. My friend Hamish and I raised our airhorns above our heads and squeezed. The bear kept coming. Then just as the horns started to wheeze their last exhale of compressed air, the bear registered the sound and pulled up.
Standing less than 80 feet from us was one of the rarest bears on the planet, the Tibetan blue bear (Ursus arctos pruinosus).
We didn't speak, there wasn't anything to say. We both knew that our air horns were exhausted and that in retrospect we should have had a plan to let off one then the other.
The bear stared at us with lips curled back. We stood frozen holding our bikes. It wasn't more than a few seconds – time enough to process the gravity of the situation – before the bear turned and retreated. Twenty feet at first, then all the way to the bank, then half way up the sand dune, at each point turning to observe and perhaps reevaluate its decision to retreat, then finally over the top of the dune and out of sight. This was the first bear we had seen on the expedition.
"Holy [expletive]."
"These air horns just saved our lives."
