"There's truth and there's perception, and perception can trump the truth. In litigation, being right isn't always good enough."
These days, there's an endless variety of CPAP options. But, since purchasing a new CPAP can be a big investment and expense, you want to pick the best you can. And the most comfortable and efficient.
Here are three of the newest, most revolutionary, and top-performing CPAPs on the market.
With one of these on your nightstand, sleeping just got easier.

Since the ECB is obviously unresponsive to the plight of Irish widows and orphans, the Irish state has a duty to protect Irish widows and orphans, and incentivise the ECB to start doing its fucking job and printing money on demand at 0.0 % to sovereigns needing stimulus. The easiest way to incentivise proper behaviour from the ECB is to cause pain to the ECB's political backers. Which means causing pain to the Frankfurt-based banks, and which means causing pain to Mrs Merkel's government.
You call it nationalist. I call it realpolitik. If you have some alternate suggestion for how to get the ECB to start providing unlimited stimulus money for the Irish economy at somewhere around the Frankfurt overnight rate, then I'm all ears. But so far you have presented no viable political strategy for how the Irish can continue to do stimulus without defaulting. And you have provided no political strategy - nevermind a credible one - for how the Irish state can obtain the necessary liquidity for continued stimulus without either leaving the -zone or threatening to default on foreigners first, in order to pressure those foreigners' governments to pressure the ECB.
Since you seem so keen on applying collective punishment to Ireland for electing Fianna Fail, you may think of it as applying collective punishment to any polity that doesn't pressure the ECB to start doing its fucking job and printing unlimited money for use in Keynesian stimulus.

My most awesome party time was last summer in Spain. I wasn't in the mood that night drying dishes at my friend's restaurant while there was stripteases both male and female ones for Bachelors Parties...that's when I missed my family, friends and Rob! But soon after it was all done, my friend made us some Cubata (Dry gin with Fanta) oh yea, and then we met with some other of her friends in a bar and we had some more, actually had two more of Cubata there. And then we procedeed to a club nearby. I have to say that this was my first time boozed, and everything around me was hilariously funny!!! We had some more of Cubata at the club and I couldn't see what was in front of me, lol....and then I felt a burn on my hand, a very delayed Ouch!! And this guy appoligized for burning me with his cigarette and then on kissing my hand. LOL It was defintely awesome party time, I'll never forget. That morning when we got to the house around 5ish, my friend cooked us some beans and we ate and laughed about our night. :)
So let's party and laugh our butts off!! lol ;)
Who's the bartender tonight? I want some Apple Martini!! ;)
|Wed, 03-26-2003 - 2:18am
Can I get some coffee though? *yawn* It's way too early here!
As for embarrassing party stories - way too many to mention. Although there is now a phrase among the people I used to work with in Japan - "Doing a Jo" (usually involves hideous amounts of spirits, tears, tantrums and being asleep by 9pm!)
LOL - I just remembered, the last time someone mentioned, one of my friends said "X did a Jo on it last weekend. But she wasn't half as classy as you were about it." I didn't think I was a classy drunk!! But there you go.
There was also my 21st (my first party - I had two!). It wasn't embarrassing so much as annoying - I was on crutches! And, as I was wandering around a lot to talk to everyone, I couldn't hold a drink - I ended up being the only sober one there - and the included my parents!!
Ok, enough stories - lets get on with party .... did anyone bring those cool streamer popper things, or do you want me to run out to the shop?!

Review this movie
Sep 25, 2014The Bucket List was much more better than the critics say. I am going to start seeing movies whether they liked the movie or not from now on, just because of this low-rated movie that changed my view of their view. That is off topic, I know, but do see The Bucket List. It will not be the end of you, like Catwoman and Getaway were almost...
Aug 27, 2014Between Rob Reiner, Jack Nicholson and Morgan Freeman there are some truly touching moments. But the missed opportunities are far too common. A real shame, too.
Jan 13, 2012Truly don't understand the critics, yes some scenes were over the top: two cars crashing together, Nicholson's hairy arm after chemotherapy, etc. Truth is money can't buy you love or joy. Very touching film and worth watching, once again...what the hell critics.
Dec 29, 2011I find it kind of heartless how such a movie is dismissed as a piece of sentimental frivolity. Since when? I find it difficult to understand that this sort of movie is sentimental - it may be in parts, but that's not the point. This was about morality, about humanity, the human condition. To show you that you shouldn't blow all your life away, because of life's unpredictability. This had a meaning, a PROPER meaning, unlike other movies. I would highly recommend this movie, because when you cry during this movie, you will feel better for it. Sometimes it's good to cry, and where a movie can make you laugh and cry around the same time, there's no way you'd want to miss this. If you want a REAL sentimental pile of garbage, go check out Titanic, which in my opinion, is TOTALLY overrated.… Expand
Aug 31, 2011This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Why is this so badly received by critics? It's not terrible at all, and it's really, really good for a film starring two very well-known names. Yeah, it's predictable (in case you don't know the movie, the guys both die, and it's hinted at from the very beginning) but it's sooooo funny.… Expand
Mar 6, 2011Once again, the critics have it all wrong. Glad we didn't rely on their rating. The movie is wonderful in every way. The only part that was over the top was the crashing of the two cars. Making a "Bucket List" is a good idea for everyone, as it is helpful to set goals and contemplate one's mortality. We will highly recommend this movie.
You'd think the team of Rob Reiner, Jack Nicholson and Morgan Freeman might have had the right stuff. Alas, their labored efforts fail to lift The Bucket List out of its flatlining state.
A feel-good film about death, a sitcom about mortality, "Ikiru" for meatheads. It's also a picture about two cancer patients confronting reality, and deciding how they want to spend their presumed last days, that has not an ounce of reality about it.
Turns out The Bucket List is a meta-film, mostly about how these two legendary actors interact and what it means to be an actor in your own life.

Are Facilities and IT data centre managers implacable enemies, or is it just a need for different priorities and emphases on work that seem to get in the way? Often, Quocirca finds that an organisation has one team – facilities management (FM) – looking after the physical facility of the data centre, with another – information technology (IT) – looking after the servers, storage and network equipment, along with the software running within it. This can lead to problems where priorities clash, or where a lack of common language or views of a problem can stop things from happening. Access >>>

Just started fermenting a Belgian golden strong and am trying to figure out yeast amount for bottle conditioning. As best as I can figure is use to JZ's calculator on Mr. Malty to get a standard pitching rate for the gravity or is there another calculation that brings the ABV into consideration?
I am going to ferment the beer then transfer to a keg to cold condition. Once that is complete I plan on bottling some 750ml bottles. So, I am trying to understand what yeast pitching rate is needed to adequately carbonate in the bottle.
So, the beer in the keg will not be carbed? I'm assuming a corny keg.
If so-
Pitch the appropriate amount of yeast for fermentation.
Give it enough time in the primary to ferment out and clean up byproducts.
Get that beer in the keg.
One week before you bottle, take a sanitized sample and put that into a crushed & "deflated" but otherwise intact 20 oz soda bottle. You want the bottle half full of wort.
Add a little priming sugar to the soda bottle, cap tightly and set out at room temp.
One week later, if the soda bottle has "inflated" you know that you're good to bottle carb.
If the soda bottle never "inflated" add a half package of dry yeast to the bulk aging beer and bottle.
The soda bottle thing is a yeast viability test, if were talking just a few weeks its not necessary, but I have no idea how long you'll let that beer sit in the keg.Better option is to carb up that beer and bottle straight from the keg, which can be done cheaply with a BMBF.

It could have been the story of the Navy Seal who gave his life so others could live, or the 5,800 crosses honoring those who paid the ultimate price for freedom.

Two entries in Manteca's first ever Memorial Day parade on Monday will be hard to miss – a Christmas-tree green 1912 vehicle and a fire-truck red 1913 four wheeler. Both were made by International Harvester Company. And both have been meticulously restored by octogenarian Everett Rankins.

My great-grandmother was Mary Lillian Pouncey b Feb. 17, 1881 in TX. She married John W.W. Hudson Apr. 25, 1900 in Hill Co, TX. She died in Feb., 1965. She had a brother named Calvin. Her death certificate shows parents as Benjamin Franklin Pouncey and unknown Welch. I found 8 year old Benjamin Franklin Pouncey in Union Parish, LA 1860 census.
He was the seventh child of E.J. and Elizabeth Pouncey. However, I found Benjamin F. and his wife Julia (Pickens) in later censuses and they had two daughters named Lenore and Nora. My grandfather and his twin sister who are now 90 say their mother didn't have sisters with those names. Only one named Sally. They say Mary Lillian's father died when she was a little girl. Benjamin lived well into the 1900's. Can anyone help me clear this mystery up? I have quite a bit of Texas and Louisiana Pouncey information and am willing to share.

A: Congratulations for getting new tubes for your precious tube amp. Chances are either your stock tubes are getting aged, or you are about to experiment some different tubes hopefully to improve the system sound to the better. Either way, it is a fun and exciting experience.
Please follow the steps below to change your tubes:
Step 1.: Confirm that your amp is working fine.
Sometimes you come to the point to buy new tubes because the amp somehow isn't working properly. The issue could be the tubes currently in the amp are getting too aged; it could also be that the amp needs a re-conditioning in case resistor / capacitor are out of spec from aging. This is a very technical process – if you are not sure and cannot make an educated assessment from experience, talk with a tube amp service technician.
Step 2: Remove old tubes from the amplifier.

Apple Store's 'Grand' Opening Creates Controversy
The world's largest Apple stores is opening amid controversy inside Grand Central Terminal Friday morning. The deal, which the retailer made with the MTA, is under a state investigation.
The Committee on Corporations, Authorities and Commissions, which oversees the MTA, has begun compiling documents on the store to determine if the transit agency got the best deal possible from Apple, and if it negotiated the best deal for commuters.
According to the MTA, Apple is paying $180 per square foot over a 10-year lease. The new location in Grand Central Terminal is 23,000 square feet. the $180 per square foot cost reflects the $5 million payment to the prior tenant to clear out early, Apple's $2.5 million capital investment in the space, and $1.1 million annual rate that will rise each year of the lease.
Apple will not share any portion of its revenue with the MTA, unlike other retailers at the terminal.
The new store , which overlooks the busy main concourse, boasts 23,000 square feet and is filled with Apple's simple white tables. It will cater to busy commuters, offering 15-minute express tutorials on Apple products.
Customers can also scan and pay for a product using an iPhone, without even talking to one of the store's 315 employees.
The MTA expects the new store to increase foot traffic to other businesses in the terminal, which is visited by about 750,000 people daily.Copyright © 2014, The Baltimore Sun

Manchester to take legal action against Hooksett for school move
In an escalation of the months-long dispute, the Board of School Committee voted unanimously Monday to have the district's attorney seek an injunction against the Hooksett board to block it from authorizing students to leave the district. The motion also directs the attorney to seek "restitution" for those students who do leave.
Hooksett pays tuition to Manchester for its high school students to attend city schools under a contract that runs through 2023. Hooksett pays the Manchester district $8,500 per student. If 70 Hooksett students leave the district, it will leave a $600,000 budget hole for the coming school year.
Hooksett officials have contended that Manchester is in breach of the contract on the grounds that the district has failed to meet minimum state standards - in particular by having classes with more than 30 students per teacher. The Hooksett School Board is already in the legal process of declaring Manchester in breach of the contract.
Manchester has in turn suggested that the Hooksett board was violating the contract by allowing dozens of students to leave the district. The contract requires Hooksett, as well as Candia, the remaining town in the contract, to send all of their public high students to Manchester.
Superintendent Thomas Brennan said that he had been informed that more than 70 Hooksett students had been authorized to leave the district.
"We continue to be informed of students being assigned to schools outside Manchester. Based on a letter I sent on your behalf, I ordered that they cease and desist," Brennan told the school board, referring to a letter he sent to Hooksett officials earlier in the year.
The motion to take legal action was made by the board's vice chairman, Dave Gelinas, who also proposed that Candia be copied in any legal communications.
Candia officials have also protested school conditions in Manchester, but they have maintained a dialogue with the city school board.
"We continue in a collaborative relationship," said Ward 1 board member Sarah Ambrogi.
Gelinas later withdrew his motion to include Candia in any legal communication.

His resistance to the emplacement of external winter clothing is considerable, though once so enclothèd he generally calms down a bit and even allows gloves to remain in place for up to two hours without biting them off. He's also getting very angry about having his head put through the neck-holes of normal clothes and has even started turning away and cowering over the edge of his high-chair when I attempt to fit his porridge-bib, even though he is unlikely to receive any porridge when not suitably-dressed, particularly on occasions when the administration of porridge occurs mere minutes after his hair has been dried after being washed to removed anything he had already smeared into it.

main index
A character, usually female, suspects a male character, often a neighbor, of committing a crime. Perhaps she is even a witness of the crime. Nobody believes her, or she isn't sure herself, so she decides to wait until he leaves his house, and then sneak in to look for clues or to obtain incriminating evidence. Of course, the potential suspect will invariably come home early, and the investigating character will have to find a way out of the house without being discovered. Sometimes they do, sometimes they don't. This can be an Idiot Plot, because the character in question often fails to be certain that the probable bad guy will actually be gone for a while and is not just getting his mail or something. In some versions, another character will be placed as a lookout, but they will either become distracted and fail to notice the bad guy as he arrives home, or their signal to get out will go unnoticed by the infiltrating character. There's also a less common but still prevalent comedy version of this trope, where the investigating character is trying to retrieve something, often an embarrassing item they've left behind. Compare Alone with the Psycho, The Stakeout.

Didn't reply to my request for carparking, when I arrived, no park was available. Had to park 1km away in a public carpark. By the time I returned in teh evening, the staff had left and there was no information on how to connect to the wifi....
Good overall
Nicely renovated, very clean hotel, 15-minute walk to train station, 15-minute walk to bus station which will bring you to TGV station, 15-minute walk to Old Town, 5-minute walk to grocery store, shops, restaurants.
We only stayed one night. We could walk from the bus station and also into town.
Central location walkable to almost everything even for this older couple. Air conditioning, and COMFORTABLE mattress and linens. Quiet facility and area. Congenial staff. Will book again when returning to Aix.
Why are there no washcloths in European hotels?
Noise (thru walls) No WiFi Expensive
Friendly staff.
Small breakfast room.
Room was airy, light and pleasant, and the bed was comfortable. Didn't have breakfast. 10 minutes to walk into town.
The shower didn't drain away very well, leaving a bit of a pool, but otherwise it worked fine. A good 20-25 minute walk from the station.
Location Rooms are comfortable
Stairs Breakfast
Zu, who is a very helpful, cheerful and pleasant lady manager made our stay a memorable one. Very clean and comfortable room.
Staff. Location.
Room a bit tight but we knew that
Hotel could be a nice place if staff would not be so rude and if they took care of facts like bedbugs which could be removed.
No assistance were given when bedbugs were regrettfully discovered and no help to find the emergency pharmacy or doctor, initially nice impression, but after this experience, very disappointed and sad to see such negligence and zero empathy, no compensation and bad management. Very sad, otherwise I could have gone back, but after this experience I do not recommend it to anyone.
Staff is nice, location good, room looked clean....
Waking up with bedbugs made our stay rather unpleasant. Therefore I would not recommend staying here....
Silence. Cleanness.
Very poor breakfast for 7,50 euro
Location is excellent on balance: a good few minutes' walk away from the Cours Mirabeau, but that means it's quiet, and there's a big Casino supermarket nearby. I chose this over more central hotels for price and space -- the rooms are a little less 'compact' than some. Very friendly and accommodating: one of the managers waited up to let me in, though I came on a late TGV from Paris. Everything clean and working, good shower in particular. Wifi has to be refreshed regularly but otherwise fine. No traffic noise (though there is traffic), quiet air conditioning, comfortable bed. Breakfast unremarkable but 'correct' and generous. Have been coming to Aix for years on research business, and this is the most reliable hotel I've stayed in.
Am struggling to think of anything. No view of la Sainte-Victoire?
The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful. The hotel is not cheap, but the room and bathroom were very clean.
The breakfast at 9 euros was expensive for what it was. I only realized it was not included when paying the bill - my fault ! The wifi signal in our room was very poor and the street was a little noisy - the downside of quite a central location on one of the main traffic arteries of Aix
it's 10 minute to center i like hotel.
Staff don't know english and no wifi at night.
Location near town centre, good for bus and train. Clean room, comfortable bed, friendly and efficient staff.
Could do with more electric sockets. No kettle. Not a problem for us but be aware you have to climbing a flight of steps to the front door.
Walking distance to city centre/cour Mirabeau. Supermarket nearby. Clean room.
Pretty far from bus terminal, quite a tiring walk if you have heavy luggages. No hot water flask.
Very pleasant staff and close to the town centre
Room was very small
It was very quiet. The staff very helpful. In easy walking distance to the historic centre of Aix and also not far from the Gare Routiere for the coach to Marseille airport
location, cleanliness, good ratio quality/price. location few minutes walk to downtown and close to the exit of the highway.
door and walls very thin if someone has problem with the noise during the night.
Nothing, although the attention of the front desk is friendly.
We were totally surprised, to find that the Hotel, no interior access. Access is by external stairs (no accessor) which prevented up our bags. 3x3 m2 room is very small and there is a shower of 1x1 m2 inside. No closet, just a steel bar with hangers. Smells musty. The dining room does not admit more than 4 lovebirds. We had to sit next to the reception, which is also in the same space. There are rooms facing the dining room. Poor clients. Not seems to be a hotel, rather it is a Guesthouse. And the price is excessive, compared with hotels around.
Easy to find from the highway, just a few walking minutes to the pedestrian zone of Aix, the room looked clean.
Very small room, old building on a bussy street, impossible to slip with open windows. Suspicious gray colour of towels :-(((, didn't have the courrage to us them...They offered us a garage in a nearby building for 9 EUR /night. It was ok but the place was scary, I would never enter there by night, if I was alone. A lot to expensive for what they offer.
Very clean. Good breakfast and the location was good as Aix is the gateway to places like Cannes, Nice, St Tropez etc. We hired a car at Marseilles Airport and reached Nice in about 90 minutes (starting out from Aix). Also an excellent place to stay if you want to use it as a base for reaching all the villages in Provence, particularly the beautiful Luberon region. The owner's wife is also a lovely person and she is fluent in English. The Hotel Vendome is good value for money and well situated. The tourism bureau just up the road is great and all the staff are proficient in English.
Room was very small but it didn't matter because we were out touring the entire time. The steep flight of steps at the entrance is also an issue and this should be stated on the website. However, the owner was helpful by offering to take our luggage up for us. Not recommended for the elderly and definitely not an option for anyone who is disabled, purely because of these steps. Also, no parking is available at the hotel but the local Rotunda parking facility can be accessed 24 hours per day for about 15 Euros per day if the car is parked over night (not expensive when you consider the cost of city parking in Sydney and Melbourne).

Gindonesia at Monsoon Seattle
We're hosting a tiki-style gin cocktail competition on Sunday, November 16! Competitors will bring their cocktail A-game to our new bar for the showdown, which goes from 3pm to 6pm. The Seattle Gin Society is a sponsor, alongside Damrak, Bols Genever, and Galliano. The bartenders will take a trip through the history of British and Dutch mercantilism in the tropics, combining gin, the classic European spirit, with tropical flavors in their drinks. Contestants include bartenders from Ba Bar and Tavern Law, as well as Mark Sexauer, author of Aphrodisiacs with a Twist.
Each bartender will create two drinks to enter into the competition, which will be tasted and voted on by local judges. The event is $25/person, which includes light snacks and a glass of tiki punch—Seattle Gin Society Members are $15/person. There will be additional drinks and food specials from the Monsoon kitchen available for purchase as well!

Monsoon Bánh Mì Social with Andrea Nguyen
On Wednesday, September 17, Eric and Sophie Banh will host Andrea Nguyen, a friend and the author of the brand new book The Banh Mi Handbook, for an afternoon of delicious Vietnamese sandwiches.
"We've put on events with Andrea for her last two books, Asian Tofu and Asian Dumplings, and they were both wonderful," says Eric Banh. "We're looking forward to having her here again."
Nguyen has always loved making sandwiches, and loves the unique template the classic bánh mì provides. A bánh mì is a twist on the classic French combo of pâté and baguette—the Vietnamese version adds tangy pickle daikon and carrot, chile slices, cucumber, cilantro, and succulent proteins.
Where: Monsoon Seattle
When: Wednesday, September 17th
Time: 4PM to 6PM.
Cost: $30
Tickets: Brown Paper Tickets
Ticket price also includes a signed copy of the book, as well as samples of three delicious bánh mì and a fresh-pressed sugar cane cocktail. Nguyen and the Banhs will be on hand to chat about Vietnamese food and cooking.
Tickets are required and available at Brown Paper Tickets.

Andrea Nguyen is a writer and teacher whose work appears in the Wall Street Journal, Los Angeles Times, and Saveur, where she is also a contributing editor. Her previous books—Into the Vietnamese Kitchen, Asian Dumplings, and Asian Tofu—were finalists for James Beard and IACP cookbook awards. She lives in Santa Cruz, CA, where she publishes vietworldkitchen.com.

Mark Ryan Winery + Sleight of Hand Cellars Wine Dinner
We are thrilled to welcome local winemakers Mark McNeilly of Mark Ryan Winery and Trey Busch of Sleight of Hand Cellars for an exclusive wine dinner on Wednesday, May 7.
Mark and Trey will also be launching the highly anticipated Idle Hands, a new wine from the Under Ground Wine Project at the dinner. A joint collaboration, the winery produced just a 100 cases of its first wine in 2007. The wine flew out of the winery, and they were eager to team up again. Only 700 cases of the 2012 vintage were produced, and they expect them to sell just as quickly. The dinner will provide an opportunity to taste the wine and see the beautiful label designed by a Milanese calligrapher.
Both winemakers will be on hand to talk wine and enjoy the spectacular menu created by the Sophie & Eric. This is sure to be a lively, educational, and delicious evening!

A LAST-GASP goal sentenced Racing Club Warwick to a disappointing 1-0 defeat against Christ The King in the Coventry Charity Cup final at the Ricoh Arena on Friday night.
The Coventry Alliance outfit went close after five minutes when Jason Cherrington fired into the side netting.
Racing responded with a corner from which Aaron Nevin's header was cleaed off the line, while Leon Blake was just off target with a 20-yard strike.
Ricardo Richards was also thwarted by a goal-line clearance and Leon Thomas saw a well struck shot flash inches wide of the post midway through the second half.
Racing continued to look the most likely winners but they were stunned in stoppage time when Andy Morris curled a 20-yard free kick into the top corner.
Racing returned to Athium Midland Combination Premier Division action less than 24-hours later and lost 2-1 at Pershore Town on Saturday.
Racing were due to complete their league campaign at Walsall Wood on Tuesday night but the game was postponed due to a waterlogged pitch. It has been rearranged for this Saturday (3pm).
Racing bring the curtain down on their season when they face Division One outfit Feckenham in the Les James Memorial Challenge Cup final at Walsall FC's Bescott Stadium on Tuesday, May 8. Kick-off is at 7.30pm.

Dog Shoots Man
A man in Brigham City, Utah was shot by his own dog during a duck hunt. The unnamed man and a friend were hunting Sunday using a boat. The man laid his 12-gauge shotgun across the bow while getting out. That's when the dog jumped up on the bow and stepped on the gun. The gun fired and sent 27 pellets of buckshot into the hunter's buttocks. The injuries were not life-threatening because the man was about ten feet away from the gun and wearing waders. He is expected to fully recover, except... READ ON
From the Yes, This Really Happens Department, I bring you the terrifying sport-slash-torture-ritual of Ferret Legging, also known as "put 'em down" and the much more descriptive "ferret-down-trousers." Yes, folks, here's how it works: you get yourself some ferrets, you open your trousers, and you place the ferret in the trousers.

Wedding Goes On as Lodge Burns Down
Mike and Nancy Rogers were to be married in the main lodge at White Point Beach Resort in Nova Scotia last Saturday. However, that building was on fire, so they and their guests were evacuated and they held the ceremony in another resort building. Firefighters from ten different departments battled the blaze, but the 83-year-old wooden lodge was a total loss. No one was injured. But the newlyweds took the opportunity to pose for a wedding portrait in front of the... READ ON
Passing Her Driving Test While in Labor
Emma French, of West Lothian, Scotland, wasn't due to give birth for another month, but when she woke up August 30th, she found her water had broken. However, French was scheduled to take her driver's license test that day and didn't want to miss it. The 20-year-old showed up for the test with labor pains, but made no mention of it to the examiner. After the 45-minute test, French earned her license and went straight to the hospital, where she soon gave birth to a... READ ON
Julia Suits has assembled a book filled with ads for real prank machines used in fraternal lodges in the early part of the 20th century, complete with an introduction by David Copperfield. This volume is extremely appropriate for readers of mental_floss, as it's full of trivia on weird inventions, the history of pranks, and a very special form of Americana. The book is bizarre and hilariously perverse, packed with clippings from catalogs sent to the high muckety-mucks at the Modern Woodmen of America,... READ ON

Pumpkin Dump Snarls Traffic
A truck lost its load and hundreds of pumpkins were strewn across a freeway near Detroit, Michigan, Wednesday morning. Other vehicles smashed many of the pumpkins, leaving a pulpy, slippery mess.

I've been working my way through John Hodgman's final book of complete world knowledge, That Is All, for a few weeks now. It comes out November 1 (11/1/11), and I'll have a complete review then. But I'm here to tell you today: this is the best final book of complete world knowledge I've read all year. And I don't just say that because the previous two books of complete world knowledge were actually incomplete (and thus worthless without this final volume) -- I say it because That is All is the only...

Five Stabbed at Get-out-of-jail Party
A welcome home party for an unnamed teenager released from juvenile detention in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania, turned ugly Saturday night. Police responded to reports of gunshots and found a street brawl had erupted.

In all, four adults and one 17-year-old were wounded. The guest of honor was not among them. No charges... READ ON

Customer Reviews for Grey Rabbit Fur MittsWrite a Review
From: Darwen UK
Very soft luxurious gloves, great value.
From: Chicago
I have finally found heaven with these mittens. My hands lose blood flow at about 35 degrees and this winter and dog walking, I have been most often in horrible pain from the cold. I walked the dogs for 45 minutes in -5 degree (-20 wind chill) weather yesterday and though my face and feet were completely numb, my hands were amazingly warm. No shedding and a perfect fit for small hands with long fingers. Now I need fur boots!
From: Valleyfield, QC, CAN
The mitts perfectly fit. Despite the small shedding problem, they are beautiful. The fleece interior is a bit cheap, but that's ok considering you have fur mitts to protect your hands. Great product for the price. Fast order confirmation/update and shipping.
From: Sylvan Lake, AB
Extremely Fast Shipping! Ordered Gray Rabbit Mitts and Black B-52 Aviator Hat with Gray Rabbit Fur and they match beautifully. I also noticed an excessive shedding problem.. Even tossed them in the dryer to try to suck some of the fur away and it didn't help much at all. Finished with a sticky roller and cleaned up the visible non-furry locations. Haven't tried it for warmth much yet but they both look amazing!
