One of the lust-worthy luxury brands in consumer electronic, Bang & Olufsen, is launching a new sub brand to expand its market into some new categories and lower (well, only slightly lower) prices.
The new brand will be called B & O Play—meant to give the products a more outgoing appeal. The first product is a portable speaker for iPhone, iPads and iPods, but headphones, speakers and even TVs are also likely in the future for B & O Play.
The launch product, the Beolit 12, is smaller than a shoebox, but hides 120 watts of power, one 4-inch woofer and two 2-inch tweeters. There's no dock on the unit. Instead it uses Apple's AirPlay to stream music wirelessly from an iOS device or iTunes on a computer. A leather handle makes it easy to carry the unit around. An eight-hour rechargeable battery lets users take it outside.
The sound demonstration we heard at a CES suite was quite impressive. The small system delivered loud, clear music much larger than it's diminutive looks would suggest.
Even though B & O Play is meant to reach a wider audience, it's still not cheap. At $799 it sits with other high-end iPod players from companies like Arcam and B & W. It was shown in a dark gray but will be available in four colors in a few weeks.
In addition to being a new brand, the product will have wider availability than other Bang & Olufsen products—you can buy it at Apple stories and other on and offline retailers.

A funny interview with me and some other stuff on The Morning News.
Here's to more interviews….Happy New Year (a bit 'late in the day') but hey.
Fun interview! Happy you are getting so much press. A young, artist friend of mine borrowed my copy of 'Kiss' the other night. He was impressed with your art. As he was walking out the door he said: "I am going home to cry." And I am sure he did.
Congrats! It just keeps getting better!
I'm watching A Kiss Before You Go trailer on the 2nd anniverary on my husband's death. Thank you for publishing this book.
For me one of the most touching and unique aspects of the book is the inside of the dust-cover. I've never seen anything like it…so personal, so heart-warming.

WASHINGTON - The Washington Nationals' newest racing president may have to drop a few pounds to be competitive.
The team said Saturday that William Howard Taft will join George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Abraham Lincoln and Theodore Roosevelt this season for the fourth-inning race by 12-foot mascots.
Taft was the portliest president at more than 300 pounds. He became the first president to throw out a ceremonial first pitch, at Washington's Griffith Stadium on April 14, 1910.
After losing more than 500 times since 2006, Teddy won the race on the final day of last year's regular season and then won against during the NL division series against St. Louis.

Life on Long Island

Two offbeat bashes to consider
Making trips into Manhattan and Brooklyn to enjoy the city's cutting edge nightlife has always been a regular move by Long Islanders – as while there's plenty to do in Nassau and Suffolk, NYC remains one of the world's main destinations for both fabulous and offbeat parties. However, once the summer rolls around, a healthy portion of the New York City DJs, hosts, performers, staffers and other club scene stars will also throw special gatherings in the Hamptons – making taking in these unique affairs as easy as driving east on Route 27.
Here are two choice (and free) events worthy of investigation:
"Dream Session: Dancehall Edition"
WHERE Django Beach Bar at Gurney's Inn: 290 Old Montauk Hwy., Montauk, 631-668-2345
WHEN Friday, July 5 at 6 p.m.
THE DEAL Taking place in the sand, along the Gurney's Inn beachfront, the legendary dancehall star Sister Nancy (responsible for the classic track "Bam Bam") will perform live, and will be supported by a number of DJs (including the iconic club/radio selector Stretch Armstrong).
The launch of the Refinery29 Beach House
WHERE Ruschmeyer's: 16 Second House Rd., Montauk, 631-668-2877
WHEN Saturday, July 6 at 6 p.m.
THE DEAL Refinery29 (refinery29.com) is all about lifestyle, and in an extension of its reach it is opening a seasonal pop-up presence in Montauk, with Ruschmeyer's hosting the fete. The entertainment is top-notch, with NYC DJ Kitty Cash spinning and the indie/ eclectic Brooklyn band Friends performing live before heading to Europe to tour (send RSVPs to firstname.lastname@example.com).

Certainly didn't stop the right from banning Gay marriage which violates all three.
1st Amendment right of speech is good to a point, but it also has restrictions under law that can lead to prison. So those that think because it is set in stone because some guys wrote it at a different time when there were only 9 states, when the military was the people basically and the land unsettled are wrong.
I will keep saying it "Why should a bunch of dead guys have more influence over government than the people that live today?" They shouldn't.

(No pun intended) ...wink..
One entails the act of leading a horse to water and forcing it to drink, and the other does not.
Well I don't know about the law. I only know of the incident that could have led to that law. Ranch for a ((Fee)) that eventually led to a death of a person.
Let's face it. It has always been a slick road when government enters the mix to do things that are for "your own protection" when maybe a person doesn't want them too. It took a lot more effort for seat belt laws, to require insurance on vehicles, wearing helmets when on motorcycles and now possibly banning assault rifles to keep the amount killed down in mass attempted shootings.
I don't like paying insurance (now even healthcare required) because that even brings a third entity (private company) into my life (and they have some measure of power over it (cost) and the government let's them) . With Assault weapons it just not allowing a weapon to be purchased, it might violate freedom of sorts, but it is a little different.
The biggest question and I think the Supreme missed this point on healthcare. Isn't about freedom per say more than it is about having a third party have a controlling interest in someone else and violate those three princples by applying terms. For example maybe I want go to 1 blazer game a year, but because I now am required to have insurance that has increased in price. I can't.
Rawls believed in balance and sometimes that meant the rich needed limitations in order to help those below because it was more sustainable for our economy. Sometimes people need limits (because the needs of many outweigh the few).
Believe it ..or.. not, up until then the State of Washington hadn't felt there was enough of that particular type of commercial activity to neccessitate a law to define it as an illegal or immoral behaviour not to be condoned for profit.
Much to the chagrin of the sodomites down South, somebody up North finally came out and said it ....heY! ...there otta be a law aginst doin that kinda stuff!

You need about 2% ish more haste. Your goal is to be above 12.5% haste raid buffed (so you get 5 ticks of renew) and seeing as you pick up so many renew.
I've been working on this toon ever since Cat arrived. In LK, I was always near the top in heals but since Cat I've been consistently at the bottom. I am thinking that I just haven't tuned my priest. http://us.battle.net/wow/en/characte...Mayda/advanced Here is the armory link. Any advice or help would greatly be appreciated. Here is a log of a raid http://www.worldoflogs.com/reports/g...3zv/details/1/
You need about 2% ish more haste. Your goal is to be above 12.5% haste raid buffed (so you get 5 ticks of renew) and seeing as you pick up so many renew.

Take the fight of Beth for example, are you assigned to heal one of the tanks?
In such an AoE heavy fight, Gheal at #1 seems weird to me. Your PoM only healed 11 times throughout the fight, way too low imo.
During the Beth fight I was up top on the web healing the Tank and DPS. So for that I was mostly single target healing. For Lord Rhyolith, I was following the DPS group on the legs.
There is still roughly 2 - 3 minutes of burn on beth, and you certainly do more then 11 PoM during that transition. Somebody else should pick up the tanks once she lands.
Also prayer of healing is only 9.4% of your healing all night long. It seems like your doing a lot more single target healing then AoE maybe you should go disc if this is the case.

If you can do your assigned job with no problem and other healers are handling the raid well (i.e. don't need your help) then I wouldn't care much about being low on the chart. For example, Shannox, Beth and Rhyolith all have burn phase in the end, all raid will be taking a lot damage and healers are going all out at the moment. In the log I see a climbing HPS in the burn phase of Shannox, but in the burn phase of Beth and Rhyolith your HPS didn't have a lot changes. (Especially on Beth.) It could be what I said that the other healers were handling the raid well. But if you have spare time and mana, helping on raid is not a bad idea.
I wish I could explain it clearer but unfortunately English isn't my native. lol
I also see a lot overheal on the log, especially Shannox. Greater heal @ 43.7% overheal, renew @ 54%, flash heal 62.3% and divine touch 49%. It could be a sign that you were not using the right spell at the right moment. I only use renews on tanks with Chakra: Serenity, or some specific moments that renew can tick its full duration without a lot overhealing. Divine touch with 49% overheal could be indicating that you were casting renew on someone who was nearly at full health. Same with flash heal, it should be only used on target with very low health. Even if you have a surge of light proc, you should still try to use it effectively.
That's what I see from the log. Don't forget to use PoM more! PoM and CoH are the gem of holy priests imo.
Tschus covers the majority of what I could say. As a holy priest you basically just spam PoM, CoH, PoH, and fill with renew. If you are going to have to go single target then you should be disc.
[Today 06:48 PM] Ion:swimming in a natural body of water ISN'T acceptable...it's momentarily tolerable
by far the two healers i was with are the most geared in he guild. I'm going to take what you say to heart. Thanks. Hit more AOE's when I'm not on he tank. I do tend to focus on the Tank even when I'm down on the ground in the Beth fight. I'll throw an AOE when I see raidwide damage and single target the rest of the time. I don't usually have mana issues except if a fight goes really long. Then everyone else is in the same situation. Another thing I'm concerned about, is Priest heals are generally slow. So by the time I fire it off, the Shaman and Druid already have them topped of or near it so I'm overhealing. Thanks for the advise. Really do appreciate it. I guess my gear and stats are ok since nobody mentioned that except for the haste which I've increased now.
It's true that holy priests are slow healers compare with others. It takes a bit more skills and experiences for a holy priest to do as good as others. If you are constantly overhealing then you might want to change the way you heal. Since other healers are so good and fast, don't compete with them on the random damages and spot healing. If you're familiar with the fight enough, you'll be able to predict the incoming damage and pre-cast your slow heals.
You may also go full haste on your gear setup, but I think it's not necessary. Remember that healers are cooperating and not competing with each others.
As for your gears and stats, I'll give some suggestions here. They are quite fine and only need a few tweaks, and they won't change the situation that much as your spell choice and reflex during the fight does.
I'd suggest that go for 50 int on bracers, heartsong on weapon, and purified demonseye on your gloves. Power torrent is also a good throughput enchant, but heartsong gives more regen and I'm not a fan of int procs. You can keep it if you want the throughput and doesn't need the regen.
For talents, I won't take divine touch and rapid renewal for my 10man setup. Spirit of redemption is also a lackluster. I would take those points to max out tome of light, body and sould, and blessed resilience. You'll have one more spare talent point after those, I'll be throwing it on improved power word: shield. You can also take one point from mental agility to max out imp. pw: s, and replace the glyph of guardian spirit to glyph of pw: s. That would turn pw: s into a handy tool, and with the glyph it can refresh renew when you're in chakra: serenity.
For stats choice and further reading I recommend this guide on plusheal.com. Well written and decent concepts, definitely worth a read!
Admittedly, my priest is an alt, but looking at your world of logs, I noticed gaps in your chakra state uptime. I could be mistaken, but as holy you should be in either one chakra or another, as there is no downside or duration limit on it anymore, and both provide significant benefits to your healing. Personally, I prefer the aoe chakra and raid heal on my priest if I am holy, and switch to discipline for any sustained single target healing fights.
Also, why are so few of your raid clicking the lightwell? It is the most mana-efficient and useful tool at a Holy priest's disposal, but I only see two members of your raid who bothered to click the darn thing. Reminding your raid that clicking the lightwell does not interrupt casts and can be done while moving may help motivate people to click more often. Alas, this is the lament of the holy priest for as long as lightwell has existed.
All good information. Thanks. I'll look at the gems and talents. I've never thought that Body and Soul was a great talent and never took it until recently when I added a point there and removed one from Blessed resiliance. It's worth a try though.
I am not sure about gaps in Chakra. I'm usually pretty careful about maintianing one state or another. Mostly in Serenity, sure wish I could macro Holy word, drives me crazy. Honestly, thinking about it I should probably use Sanctuary more. I do on fights that do heavy AOE and I'm assigned as raid heals. But I do get pigeonholed at times to tank heal probably because the other healers are powerful healers.
As for lightwell.....don't get me started on lightwell. Even with a mage saying over and over again, click the lightwell. I've raided with this guild for two years. They've never been fond of lightwell. I really do appreciate the comments and tips.

By Perricone Addict
from Albany, NY
I have been using Perricone for about a year now and can't believe the change in my skin. I have recently been playing around with the different sciences and have added the Vitamin C serum and the VCE nighttime treatment to my current regimen. I am 41 years old and have moderate signs of aging including wrinkles ranging from fine to expression lines around mouth and between eyes. I generally use Citrus facial wash, cold plasma and formula 15 every day and have recently added the Vitamin C serum finished with FFM and have noticed a glow that I thought only was available with illuminating make-up. The serum has added hydration and softened fine lines. I think the combination of the Vitamin C products and the DMAE collection has transformed my skin and I am so glad I have played between the 2 sciences. My skin is even and radiant, love this line!!!!

My new Perricone favorite!
By Perriconista from South Lyon
from South Lyon, Mi
The new vitamin c ester serum for the face is for daytime use and compliments the vitamin c ester 15 for nightime use. I find that using this product has brightened the dark circles under my eyes and evened out my skin tone. It is my new Perricone favorite!

The fine opening Symphony is in the conventional two-section French style (which had itself originated in Italy), with the opening dotted section followed by a faster imitative triple-time movement. Two basses follow this with a rich duet, full of word-painting, linked to the first chorus by a short string ritornello. The section 'Be lively then and gay' is ingeniously based on the popular song 'Hey boys, up go we', and Purcell used its tune (to be found in The Dancing Master, 16th edition, 1686) first as the bass to the tenor solo, then as a counterpoint in the violins to the chorus, and then again as the bass to the dancing string ritornello which concludes the section. It is not known who was the bass singer for 'In his just praise' but he must have had a remarkable range of over two octaves which Purcell exploited to the full. The composer's good humour continues, for in the next section the upper strings furiously play on all four of their open strings in response to the chorus's exhortation 'Tune all your strings'. The musical allegories continue in 'From the rattling of drums and the trumpet's loud sounds' before we enter into a more gentle section 'To music's softer but yet kind and pleasing melody' which is accompanied by two recorders. This leads into the jewel of the Ode 'With him he brings', sung at the first performance by the famous countertenor (and fine composer) William Turner. Over a wonderful four-bar ground bass the Queen's beauty is praised, with especially delightful writing for 'There beauty its whole artillery tries', before the ground bass modulates up a fifth, and Purcell provides (as he does in so many of the Odes) a delicious string ritornello. The soprano duet 'Happy in a mutual love' which follows is delightful too, and the work ends with a lilting solo and elegantly harmonized chorus 'Whilst in music and verse'.

Pieces that have crit are ideal to reforge for mastery - while crit is a decent stat, mastery offers much more. If you have no mana issues, spirit is also something you can safely reforge. However, mana has become more of an issue since 4.0.1, so do be cautious. Mastery won't help you if you're OOM.
TLDR: Crit is ideal to reforge, spirit can also work.

Cera F Powders – 100% fluorocarbon These waxes have a unique combination of characteristics for providing: • Very high degree of purity • Very low surface tension • Friction reducing lubricating power • Exceptional water repellency • High resistance to dirt and oils • Chemical inertness and stability • Thermal stability In short, this means the fastest gliding for the longest duration due to the resistance of contamination from dirt/pollution in the snow being greater than regular paraffin waxes. Cera F Waxes do not contain CFC's and is not harmful to the environment.
We recommend a visit to the RACE section in Swix School for detailed information about the different application techniques of our different Cera F products.

By definition, organic fruit production mandates that the fruit is grown with minimal use of non-organic pesticides and herbicides. Organic food production is a heavily regulated industry and many countries require fruit growers to obtain special certifications before they can sell their fruit as "organic." Looking for organic delivery of fresh seasonal and tropical fruit? Order online from ProFlowers large selection, delivered field fresh across the U.S. Sending a gift sampler or basket of fresh organic fruit is a wonderful way to say thank you, happy birthday, congratulations, or good luck with your big presentation. With its limited exposure to non-organic chemicals out in the groves, certified organic fruit is believed by many people to be a healthier choice. This is especially important for fruits that have edible skins, including apples, pears, mangos, plums, giant strawberries and cherries. But whether fruit is grown conventionally or organically, experts always recommend that any fruit is washed thoroughly before being eaten. Count on ProFlowers for organic home delivery of fresh seasonal and tropical fruit gifts. Order online today for fast, fresh delivery across the U.S.

Speaker: Elizabeth Fast, JD &
CPA, Spencer Fane Britt & Browne, LLP
About the Program
There is often confusion regarding the distinction between a
guarantor and a co-signer, and the situations where it is permissible to
require a guarantor or a co-signer on a loan. Do you understand the
legal prohibitions against requiring a spouse to be a guarantor or
co-signer? Are you aware of the new rules regarding proving that
applicants applied for joint credit? The Equal Credit Opportunity Act
and Regulation B are a major focus of the NCUA and the CFPB, so your
credit union must be welltrained in this complicated area.
Besides reviewing the related laws and regulations, this webinar will
explain the proper procedures to use when evaluating the use of a
guarantor or a co-signer and when proving that applicants applied for
joint credit. This webinar will also address the proper procedures to
obtain a security interest in jointly-held collateral while not
violating the laws and regulations. After participating in this webinar,
you will be prepared to answer examiners' questions on this

Fantastic Product!!
3 people found the following review helpful
Posted by Reviewer1737964 on Nov 28, 2007
Purchased at iHerb
Don't laugh, I give these to my dogs! I have a young female pit bull mix that had constant urinary tract infections. I chose this product because it's nothing more than pure cranberry. She gets 2 capsules a day and no more UTI's. She can go longer between potty breaks too! We have another small dog that had constant hoarseness. After several rounds of antibiotics from the vet, I started giving her 1 capsule a day (she's small) and after a few weeks, no more hoarseness. If they work this well on dogs, imagine how good they will work for you!!
For my cat´s urinary health

Posted by themadcatlady on Sep 09, 2012
Purchased at iHerb
I mix in the content of half a capsule into one of my cat´s breakfast every day. He suffers from Feline Urinary Syndrome, a very painful chronic condition that produces crystal in his urine. I heard only good things from vets and sources on the internet that cranberry can help with feline urinary health, so I thought I´d try it... And it seems to be helping! Instead of crying out in pain on urinating, he seems to act "normal" now when he goes to the toilet. I am very pleased for him with this result. :)

VERY GOOD JOB as a daily urine infection preventative...

Posted by PracticalReviews on Oct 26, 2013
Purchased at iHerb
i take 1 cap per day to prevent my occasional urine infection and the cranrich has worked better for me in 1 cap as all the others till now needed 2 caps,very convenient as i have a lot more supplements to take daily,i already ordered the 120 caps economy pack,may i just suggest you turn this product a vegan compatible by not using gelatin for the cap.also,drink Nettle tea daily if your a tea lover & if you have a more serious urine infection you should consider using UVA URSI,its much more powerful than cranberry,like natural urine antibiotics...you are welcome to rate & read my other reviews

(Beijing, Pingyao, Xi'an, Chengdu)
Take a step back through time & into a hauntingly beautiful world evocative of ancient dynasties, mystical legends & golden dragons with this tour of Beijing, Pingyao, Xi'an & Chengdu. Behold exotic wonders from this epic land`s past as you visit the Great Wall, Temple of Heaven, Forbidden City, Tiananmen Square, Terracotta Warriors & more with private guide. Delve into the timeless treasures, artisan studios & cuisine of Pingyao before journeying into the foothills of the Himalayas to a celebrated panda reserve. Featuring charming hotels, internal flights & more.
Meet your driver for an airport transfer with a private vehicle and English speaking guide.
Enjoy a full day private guided tour with lunch at the Great Wall at Mutianyu located 45 miles northeast of Beijing. This section winds along lofty, cragged mountains for 1.4 miles. Construction was started in the Northern Qi Dynasty (550-577) and was restored in the early Ming Dynasty (1368-1644). Built mainly from granite with 8 meter walls and 5 meter wide at the top, it is notable for its 22 watchtowers. Lunch is included.
This full day tour of Tiananmen Square, Forbidden City, and the Summer Palace offers a light schedule with time to explore and enjoy each site. Begin with the famous Tiananmen Square, built in 1417 during the Ming Dynasty and "front door" of the Forbidden City. The present square stretches a vast 440,000 square meters and features Tiananmen Tower, Monument to the People's Heroes, Great Hall of the People, and Mao Zedong Memorial Hall. The Forbidden City is the world's largest palace complex with 9,999 buildings across 74 hectares, surrounded by a six meter deep moat and a ten meter wall, and divided into two parts. The Outer Court was where the emperor exercised his supreme power over the nation. The Inner Court was where he lived with his royal family. Fourteen emperors of the Ming dynasty and ten emperors of the Qing dynasty reigned here until 1924. The Summer Palace occupies an area of 294 hectares, three quarters of which is water. Classically designed as an archetypal Chinese garden, it's ranked amongst the most noted gardens of the world and was listed as a World Heritage Site in 1998. Lunch is included.
Fly from Beijing to Taiyuan. Flight time is approximately 1.5 hours.
Transfer from Taiyuan airport to Pingyao with a private vehicle, driver, and English speaking guide. The transfer is approximately 1.5 hours.
The ancient commerce town of Pingyao is said to be one of the best preserved traditional Chinese cities centered within perhaps the only completely intact (6 kilometer long) Ming dynasty wall in all of China. This full day private guided tour of Pingyao Old Town includes Shuanglin Temple, family Wang's Courtyard, museums, learning about local handicrafts, and a deluxe lunch.
Transfer from Pingyao to Taiyuan airport with a private vehicle, driver, and English speaking guide. On the way you will visit the JinJinCi Temple. Lunch is included.
Fly from Taiyuan to Xi'an. Flight time is approximately 1.5 hours.
The first stop today is the famous Terra Cotta Army. Discovered accidentally in 1974, this incredible army of over 7000 soldiers, archers, horses and chariots in full battle array has guarded Emperor Qin's tomb since 210BC. Each figure is unique, and the painstaking repair and excavation continues in 3 pits which are protected inside huge hangars. The tour heads back into town, to the imposing ancient city wall. The walls, ramparts, gates and watchtowers from one of the oldest and most complete city defences are still around. They were built in the 13th century on the foundations of the original Tang Forbidden City surrounding the city center. The last leg of the tour is the Big Wild Goose Pagoda, which is a major Buddhist site. The simple, elegant brick Pagoda stands in the grounds of the attractive Da Ci'en Temple. The Pagoda was built in the 7th century to house the Buddhist materials that Xuanzang (Tripitaka) brought back from his epic journey to India. The Temple complex has several large halls with some great Buddhist statues and murals.
Fly from Xi'an to Chengdu. Flight time is approximately 1.5 hours
Enjoy a full day private guided Chengdu tour, starting with a half-day trip to the Panda Research Center. The center was designed to imitate the pandas' natural habitat in order to provide the best possible environment for rearing and breeding. After watching and observing the pandas, travel to Chengdu's traditional Jinli Street for a local lunch. After your meal, you will visit a local tea house to experience one of the most vibrant and ancient tea cultures in the world. Lunch is included.
Fly from Chengdu to Beijing. Flight time is approximately 2.5 hours.
Park Plaza Beijing Wangfujing showcases the city as a unique reflection of the many changing facets of contemporary Chinese culture, where ancient cultural sites vie for space alongside high-rise buildings and an intricate freeway system. This Beijing lodging is just minutes away from several popular attractions, such as Tiananmen Square, the National Museum of China, and the Forbidden City. The world-renowned services at the Park Plaza Wangfujing Hotel Beijing ensure that guests enjoy a warm and personalized stay. Enjoy their amenities, including a gymnasium and massage center. The Park Plaza Wangfujing Hotel features three on-site restaurants that offer a range of cuisines. Enjoy Asian dining at Ooodle, international dishes at Bloo Dining, and a menu of light fare at First Lounge Bar.
Jing's Residence has 19 rooms and is nestled amongst dusty curio shops and bustling restaurants in the old walled city of Pingyao, a small boutique hotel that is located in a nicely-renovated old mansion. The design of the hotel fits in harmoniously with the traditional surroundings of this ancient city. The Residence is ideally located in the heart of the old town and encompasses a series of grey-brick pavilions built around a set of four courtyards in the authentic architectural style of northern China. Tables and chairs are located outside each pavilion where guests can relax while reading, drinking tea, or soaking up the historical atmosphere. In addition to the luxurious accommodations, the Residence also features a dining room where guests can enjoy an extensive menu of international and local favorites. The Residence also provides an exclusive meeting space, a cozy library and a bar that make it the perfect home-away-from-home for discerning travelers.
The heritage of Xian and the classic French hospitality of Sofitel combine to create a stunning hotel welcoming travelers to the heart of the city. Sofitel Xian on Renmin Square is located very centrally within the Xian city walls near many historical sites including the Bell Tower Drum Tower Great Mosque and Forest of Steles. The airport and Terra Cotta Warriors are both a 45-minute drive. All luxury hotel rooms, suites, and apartments indulge with modern conveniences.

Its interior design is unique and there are a plenty of rare Tangkas, ancient temple paintings and antiques, which include the oldest man-made embroidery of Qing Dynasty in Sichuan.

"I have to admit, this was the BEST vacation I ever had. The tour was nothing less than Fantastic! The hotels were great, the guides were great, the transportation was great, the places were great, the people were great, the food was great and last but not least China, itself was out of this world. I'm so glad I booked this tour and would recommend this to anyone. Thanks so much for all your help, your interest and your recommendations. Steve in China was so attentive, he called constantly to make sure everything was fine. We really had a fabulous time and even my jaded husband who normally only seems to care about where the nearest golf course is, was impressed and had a wonderful time.
Thanks again, and unto the next vacation (although I don't know how we would top this one!!)

"The tour was absolutely fabulous. It all started with the planning. Kathryn graciously accommodated our tight schedule and multiple needs, including a mid-trip change in plans. The tour guides and drivers were all great and extremely knowledgeable. The accommodations and meals were fantastic. I was apprehensive about going to China not knowing the language but it worked out great!"

"We just returned on Monday from our wonderful trip to South Korea, Bangkok and Phuket. I wanted to thank you for all of your hard work in planning our tours and adventures. Everything was spot on, from our arrivals at the airports, to the guides and the tours. I would not hesitate to recommend you and your company. It was truly a wonderful vacation. Thank you again.

"I wanted to let you know that our trip to China was great! Everybody enjoyed themselves. When planning a trip I am always concerned about the itinerary, the vehicles and the guides. All 3 of these were great. The guides were particularly good and in this case really made the trip a pleasure. Overall a great trip. Thanks for all you did."

"We just returned from our thailand/cambodia trip. It was fantastic. You did a great job. The guides were excellent as was the drivers. We loved the Victoria Hotel you selected in Siem. Wish we had more time. Thailand met our expectations but our expectations for Cambodia were low and they exceeded them. Loved the places selected for the included lunches. Certainly would use Kensington again"
Santo Filice ,
August 30, 2013
"Thank you for arranging our guided trip to Thailand - Vietnam. It was a memorable, and pleasant trip - a 1st for us with Kensington tours and a most enjoyable one. We found that we were able to maximize our visit of the the area without the concern of booking hotels, airline, finding parking and understanding the local language. "
Tim Mesarch ,
August 02, 2013
"Alexis helped us fit in all of the sites we wanted to see on our trip to Thailand and Cambodia, and suggested some more. It was valuable talking with someone who had been there and done that. The planning went pretty smoothly, and so did the trip. The local guides were all top-notch! "
ClotildeTamers ,
July 25, 2013
"I highly recommend Kesington Tours. The planning of our trip to Cambodia was outstanding. Our advisor Alexis Mayer was unbelievably patient, knowledgeable and responsive. We planned the trip in every possible detail and Alexis was extraordinary during the whole process. Once we were in Cambodia, we had a tiny issue with the car. I was able to get in contact with Alexis right away and the problem was instantly solved. The trip itself was fantastic. Everything was very well planned and perfectly organized. The local guides and drivers were great. The hotels were very well chosen.
Great trip. I would definitely travel again with Kensington Tours."
Pennie Quintana ,
August 07, 2013
"Thank you so much for the amazing trip we enjoyed!! All our guides were fantasy. Joseph in Jakarta, July in Jojakarta and Deon in Borneo!! Wow!! Bless you for all your attention to detail and the outstanding communication to all my questions. You made me feel so taken care of and tended too!! "

I recently received a review copy of The I Love Trader Joe's Vegetarian Cookbook written by my friend and seasoned author, Kris Holechek Peters. It contains 150 recipes using foods from the much loved and unique grocery store chain, Trader Joe's. Don't let the title fool you, there is a vegan version of each and every recipe! I hastily made a list of the recipes I wanted to make and strolled over to my local TJ's this afternoon. I don't shop there often but I do like the nifty products they carry alongside standard grocery items. The first recipe I tackled was the Tempeh Wrap.
The Tempeh Wrap is a whole wheat tortilla filled with seasoned tempeh crumbles, lettuce, shredded carrot, olives (my favorite!), and cream cheese (I used homemade). I added diced avocado because it's a requirement for my sandwiches. This wrap was really enjoyable! It doesn't take long to prepare and it is nutritious, filling, and inexpensive.
Stay tuned for more recipe reviews from The I Love Trader Joe's Vegetarian Cookbook!
