Easy to use and no dust. WoW By Will on 1/10/2010 Will would recommend this product to a friend I always used another high end carbon but I am now hooked on ROX :) I love how easy it washes and all the experts say its the best! Just awesome! By dylan on 1/8/2010 dylan would recommend this product to a friend This Stuff works just as good if not better than the stuff that costs 4 times as much. Great stuff. No more dust! By Joseph on 12/16/2009 Joseph would recommend this product to a friend I use this in my BRS reactor. It works very well and does not hold and create more and more dust. I pack in the top of my BRS reactor and it just works. The water is crystal clear, no more yellowing and no more odors. The stuff I use to buy was basically 1/2 black powder that took forever to rinse. In a reactor, this rinsed clean in about 20 seconds, if that. If you want crystal water buy it! By Stephen on 11/28/2009 Stephen would recommend this product to a friend After watching the demonstration of what the different carbons remove you will wonder why you were thinking about buying something else. Almost dust free. GAC By Ryan on 11/28/2009 Ryan would recommend this product to a friend After watching a video which BRS has on this site showing how the ROX cleans up the water in comparison to the other GAC options, I had to give ROX a shot. I have been using it for about two weeks now and my water is clear and this GAC is pretty clean. Wow By Terry on 11/23/2009 Terry would recommend this product to a friend I've bought a lot of carbon from my LFS and I'm always careful to rinse it very well. I found myself wondering if I was wasting my time with the ROX; this carbon was absolutely clean. It also sounded like a frying pan with all that sizzle. Get it wet and you'll see what I mean. I'm very impressed with the quality and the value. Great product By James on 11/19/2009 James would recommend this product to a friend The best reef carbon on the market period!

GM recalls full-size truck, SUVs and vans over faulty shifter mechanism
by Jonathon Ramsey (RSS feed) on Jan 7th, 2013 at 8:28AM
Twelve different General Motors vehicles from the 2013 model year, up to 54,686 units in total, are being recalled over two potential issues with their steering columns. The models in question, all full-size trucks, SUVs or vans, are the: Cadillac Escalade, Escalade ESV, Escalade EXT, Chevrolet Avalanche, Express, Silverado, Suburban, Tahoe, and GMC Savana, Sierra, Yukon and Yukon XL. The affected vehicles were built with a fractured parking lock cable or "a malformed steering column lock actuator gear in the lock module assembly." As a consequence, they could shift out of park without the... Read More

Adrian Sutil's chances of securing Force India's second seat were boosted after he impressed the team's Chief Race Engineer during testing.
Having been dropped by Force India at the end of the 2011 Championship, Sutil has been away for Formula One for 15 months.
That, though, did not appear to hamper the German as he climbed into the cockpit of the team's latest VJM06 in a bid to secure a drive.
Sutil covered 78 laps on Thursday with a best time of 1:22.877, which put him 1.002s off the pace.
"It has been a long time since Adrian last worked with the team, but he did an excellent job of getting used to the car and was on the pace straight away," said Jakob Andreasen, the team's Chief Race Engineer.
"His feedback was good and it was interesting to hear the thoughts of a driver who has not been in a Formula One car for a while.
"He was very detailed with his comments and provided some good direction for us.
"The programme was similar to the previous couple of days with aero work, long runs and performance work using the hard, medium and soft tyres."

Just wanted to post a thank you for this guide. My first night learning this guy was not a good one as I had been working on little sleep and just could not make a mental note of where to go next.
We tried him again this week and while 7 out of 10 raid members were dead at 50% we still got him down. Myself(prot pally) and one of our healing paladins 2 manned him the last 12%. The fight took 27 mintues .
A large part of what helped me stay alive was watching this guide and making a mental note of where cider goes during phase 2. Finding a specific crack in the floor where the eruption just happened allowed me a spot to focus on and kept me safe.

Small low-branched tree with large, saucer-shaped flowers. Early-spring blossoms are pinkish-purple outside, white inside. Medium fast-growing, good pollution tolerance. Likes moist, deep, acid soil and full sun. Avoid frost pockets as late spring frosts and freezes will kill flower buds. Grows to 20' to 30', 25' spread. (zones 4-9)
Wildlife Value
Wildlife use larger dead branches of the Saucer Magnolia as nesting sites and the sprouts of young trees are browsed.
A hybrid cousin of America's magnificent Southern Magnolia, the Saucer Magnolia is actually a large spreading shrub that take its name from its wide, saucer-like flowers. First cultivated in 1826.
Moist, has some drought resistance.
The leaves are simple, alternate, three to six inches in length, about half as wide. Medium to dark green in summer, they sometimes turn an attractive brown in autumn.
Flower Color
The flowers are pink and white, are very attractive, can reappear throughout the summer and sometimes will carry over into winter although the colors tend to fade with re-emerging blossoms.
Bloom Time
Late February to April.
Fruit Description
The fruit is elongated, 1 to 3 inches long; they appear in August and contain small, pointed red or deep pink seeds. Attractive to birds, they do produce minor amounts of litter.
Rate of growth refers to the vertical increase in growth unless specified differently. Rate, as is true for size, is influenced by numerous variables such as soil, drainage, water, fertility, light, exposure, ad infinitum. The designation slow means the plant grows 12" or less per year; medium refers to 13 to 24" of growth per year; and fast to 25" or greater.Manual of Woody Landscape Plants, by Michael Dirr.

Dr. Pepper Celebrates Individuality with T-Shirt Uniforms
From Deutsch LA comes the above TV spot for Dr. Pepper, set to debut during the BCS National Championship game tonight. As college football fans know, it's a funny coincidence that tonight's game will be anything but "one of a kind," as the two teams playing already met once before in the regular season (with LSU beating Alabama 9-6 in overtime).
As you'll notice, "Always One of a Kind" is veering quite a bit away from the "controversial" nature of recent work for Dr. Pepper 10, which is, by the way, "not for women." For the brand's full calorie-d product, Deutsch is taking a more inclusive approach. See, Dr. Pepper classic isn't just for women. It's for proud cougars who wear their identity on t-shirts. It's also apparently for control freaks, momma's boys and canine wingmen, all of whom look quite dashing in red. And, in case you're wondering, the "I'm a Pepper" shirt that shows up at the end is an homage to a 1970s TV campaign of the same name.
The obvious complaint is that the "one of a kind" individuals in the spot are all wearing the same t-shirt, an observation that skeptical millennials are sure to point out upon seeing the ad. Well, Dr. Pepper has them covered, because viewers can actually purchase customized "I'm a (declaration)" shirts from Dr. Pepper's website. I wonder if "I'm a Coke loyalist" or "I'd like to teach the world to sing" will fly with the powers that be. Also, for you social media devotees, Dr. Pepper's promoted #ImA hashtag is currently trending nationwide on Twitter. Credits, and an animated new spot from Deutsch (this time for Diet Dr. Pepper) follow after the jump.

Chrysler 700C concept minivan quietly rolls into Detroit
by Steven J. Ewing (RSS feed) on Jan 9th, 2012 at 5:23PM
The crowd here at the Detroit Auto Show may be oohing and aahing over the all-new 2013 Dodge Dart, but something else caught our eye at the Chrysler display here inside Cobo Hall. The swoopy minivan you see above is the Chrysler 700C Concept, a vehicle that we hadn't heard a peep about until we spent a few minutes talking with Rick Deneau from Chrysler Brand Communications. Deneau tells us that, in essence, the 700C is simply a design study of what the future of the Chrysler minivan could look like, and that its presence here in Detroit is simply to gauge interest from not only the media,...

I wouldn't worry too much that she didn't reply. There are plenty of others to talk to. A lot of people wink at profiles that catch their eye but later just ignore it if the person responds because they either change their mind, are too timid to respond back, or stopped using the site/went on a date.
You can try adultspace, its an "adult" myspace site.
If your in a big city, you may find alot of local connections. Be careful, some are Ehookers.
Craigslist is decent just got to be careful.
Myspace (a long time ago) was an awesome hookup site, but it fell to the Emos and camera "whores".
RL (real life) aka clubbing is another option but like some of these dating sites, you may pay with no play.
"Humility defeats pride, Master Yang has preached. Pride defeats man"
Just use OK Cupid instead. It's free, and better.
Well 1, 2, 3, take my hand and come with me
Because you look so fine
And I really wanna make you mine
I used online dating years ago, met a few nice girls that I dated for awhile. Also plenty of insane/scary girls too.
The problem now is that those sites are male heavy (like 50 guys to 1 girl) so girls are literally getting hundreds of messages. Secondly, porn spammers have created thousands of false profiles. They pretend to be interested in you and then send you a link to their "hot pics" or "cam" or whatever hoping you'll pay to see it (they're just dudes selling porn).
Finally, girls don't like cheapass guys. If you are too cheap to pay for a membership...forget about it. You'll only be dealing with the crazies and the porn spammers.
Well 1, 2, 3, take my hand and come with me
Because you look so fine
And I really wanna make you mine
Overall, it was a positive experience and I met my wife online. Been married for nearly a decade so that tells you how long ago I used dating sites.
Well 1, 2, 3, take my hand and come with me
Because you look so fine
And I really wanna make you mine
you can check out my profile if you want some tips on what a decent one should look like. I have the sudo-sexual humor in there, I have the dry humor in there, and I have the seriousness in there. I even have a game in my profile for the ladies to play.
Anyone wanting to see my profile go on match and look up area code 49085 (within 5-10 miles) for 32 year old, my user name is cdiddy1998
Last edited by crawdaddy029; 2013-01-10 at 06:26 AM.
eh, I had success with eHarmoney (he turned into a really great friend when we realized a few months into it that the distance just wasnt for us) and Match (Still with the guy over a year later, although we still debate who contacted who first. I swear i winked at him first ) OkCupid i ended up getting all the losers, so after a couple weeks i just took my profile down.
Dating sites are great if you're patient and know how to put together a good profile, although as a woman i guess it might be easier for me. On the other hand, Im an average at best looking woman so i didnt think it would be easy >.>
as far as your actual question, i think you can recieve, just not send or in some cases know who it is. Although one time on Match, after i deactivated and ran out of time because i found my current bf, i was able to read a mail and know who it was from, but only that one time.
sluts in disguise!What. The. Hell.I don't consider myself a douche with a hidden agenda
Do you even read the things you write? You're the guy everyone complains about when they say no one on these websites is looking for anything serious. Congratulations, you had 4 meaningless hookups and are still alone.
This is a prime example of the type of email you should write when you want to try to match with someone. They may or may not bite, but you have the humor there and you are being direct with what you want at the same time. I did this in the past 20 minutes. messaged 4 ladies with this and she was the first to respond and it was perfect.

Mayor Rahm Emanuel pledged Wednesday to breathe new life into the city's stagnant community-policing program, drawing approval from aldermen.
Emanuel said 50 community-policing employees will be moved from police headquarters to districts where they will join about 70 other employees in the program.
Their performance will come under the scrutiny of the department's CompStat evaluation system, just like that of other officers, the mayor said during a Sun-Times Editorial Board meeting after delivering his budget address.
The Chicago Alternative Policing Strategy was a key part of the department's crime-fighting efforts under former police Supt. Terry Hillard in the late 1990s and early 2000s, but the program faltered in recent years.
"I was very disappointed in the last year of Mayor Daley's term when they eliminated community-policing positions in the police districts," said Ald. Joe Moore (49th).
Moore said he was happy to learn district commanders will fashion their own community-policing initiatives.
In his budget address, Emanuel painted an upbeat picture of the police department's efforts to combat murder and other crime — countering a national perception that killings are out of control here.
The mayor also touted the expected hiring of almost 460 new police officers this year and another 500 next year.
But union officials and aldermen said the new police hires may not even keep pace with retirements. Through Aug. 15, 420 officers had already retired, according to the Fraternal Order of Police.
FOP President Michael Shields says the city needs to hire a minimum of 1,400 new officers. But police Supt. Garry McCarthy is satisfied with maintaining the budgeted strength of 12,500 cops, a mayoral spokeswoman said.
In his address, Emanuel said he will make permanent a summer overtime initiative that put more cops on the street.
Chicago gained national attention early this year when the number of killings topped last year's by more than 60 percent.
The mayor noted that some neighborhoods experienced an increase in gang violence over the first three months of 2012 that "I, as a mayor, will never accept." Since then, though, the murder rate has flattened out. The year's homicide increase through the end of September was about 28 percent.
Emanuel pointed out that the Englewood and Harrison police districts, which have received an infusion of beat cops and other resources, have seen major decreases in murders this year, by 42 percent and 20 percent respectively.
But he acknowledged that other parts of the city have seen their homicide rates soar because of gang conflicts. Police leadership changes and an expansion of the department's gang-fighting strategy have started to reduce killings in some of those police districts, the mayor said.
Emanuel emphasized that crime is down in every other major category besides murder, resulting in a 9 percent overall decrease in crime across the city this year.

Alcoholic Beverage License Renewal Now Offered Online
South Carolina Business One Stop (SCBOS), South Carolina's only online system which connects business owners to multiple state agencies, has launched a new Alcohol Beverage License renewal program. This new feature will impact over all businesses with liquor licenses throughout the state of South Carolina, and includes Beer and Wine Licenses, Liquor by the Drink Licenses, Retail Liquor Licenses and Wholesale Liquor Licenses.
Starting in January, business owners with ABL licenses will be able to renew, pay by credit card or EFT (electronic fund transfer), and print a temporary license from the SCBOS Web site. Renewal notices for Allendale, Bamberg, Barnwell, Beaufort, and Berkeley counties were mailed out this week. Businesses that are in the 2007 renewal cycle will be mailed their renewal notices 60 days in advance of their license expiration date throughout the year.
"The Alcohol Beverage License Renewal program allows business owners to have the convenience of renewing their licenses online and receiving an immediate temporary license," commented Department of Revenue Director Ray Stevens, "that allows the business owner to continue daily operations without interruption."
For the Partner Agencies that comprise SCBOS, this is an eventful step forward in providing South Carolina businesses with the ability to interact with the State electronically. For business owners, it provides convenience.
"I renewed our ABL license online today for Bamberg Discount Beverage. I was prompted to answer all the questions necessary and paid it right then. I found this way to be very simple and efficient. I will renew over the Internet for all of our stores when it is time to renew," said Betty Bunch of Goodwins of Orangeburg. The average time for completing the Alcohol Beverage License Renewal online is five minutes.
"The South Carolina Chamber of Commerce is proud to be a partner in this collaborative effort to ease red tape for new and expanding businesses in the state," said S. Hunter Howard Jr., president and chief executive officer of the South Carolina Chamber. "SCBOS has more than met expectations, and we are extremely excited that the Web site is continuing to grow by now facilitating ABL renewals online. SCBOS is an excellent example of how South Carolina is enhancing its business climate to make it more attractive to new investment."
Business owners wanting to take advantage of renewing their Alcohol Beverage License online can find complete instructions on the SCBOS Web site, or on the last page of their Renewal letter application. The SCBOS Web site is located at: http://www.scbos.com.

Houston, TX, United States | Member Since 2008
"Character and locale par excellence"
I tell my acting students that they pass people on the street every day who are as extraordinary and unbelievable as anyone they will play on stage--they just can't see behind the masks. M.C.Smith's books, as carefully plotted as they are, are not about plot. They are, rather, about revealing the desperation, the depravity, the courage and sometimes even the nobility lurking behind the banal masks worn by everyone in a uniformly grey society. Often the worst and the best even co-exist, unsuspected, in the same person. His characters act in ways we never expect, and when they do, our eyes go wide with recognition as their hidden purposes and obsessions become apparent. Not plot but a rich stew of competing and sometimes deadly motives gives his tales their extraordinary power, and at the center is Renko whose only uncompromising motive is the simplist and most dangerous of all--to find the truth.
Smith's other great strength is the evocation of locale. The white domain of deadly cold which he gives us in Polar Star provides constant intersections of breathtaking beauty and unforgiving peril which the author uses to spine chilling effect during Renko's frequent brushes with death. In almost every instance, numbing cold or intense fire or both play their part in vivid detail.
Happily, the author's mastery of character and locale are matched by Frank Muller's marvelous voice which brings it all into audible presence, understating but never neglecting a nuance, creating the white world and the grey cast of characters and the suppressed desperation with a bone true reading.
This book gains momentum slowly but rewards the reader with extaordinary tension and some action sequences which you will likely not forget. I recommend it very highly.
"Neither fish nor...."
The publisher's notes suggest that in this book you can find the truth behind the classic Japanese story of the 47 Ronin (masterless samurai). That is only true if they were referring to the prologue which draws a clear line between the actual events and the fictionalized account presented by the author. This sets up an interesting tension which is clearly troubling for some people. The Ronin and their single minded leader are tainted by the clarifications in the prologue, so that there is a persistent "but" stalking the entire narrative of the book.
Nonetheless, the story is fascinating, deeply rooted in a culture which is profoundly alien for a Western reader in many ways. It develops slowly but very steadily, as successful revenge plots almost always do, and provides a pretty respectable emotional punch. I found more than enough tension along the way to keep me engaged, and the well drawn details of the daily life of the characters successfully drew me into that distant time and place in a very satisfying way. This is NOT an action adventure, however. Its appeal is in the gradual, carefully contained progress toward an explosive and appropriate ending. And, for me at least, in the nagging tension between the popular story and the uncomfortable facts which lie behind it. As a result, this is not a book for someone looking for authentic history, nor will it satisfy the listener who wants to be left breathless at the end of each chapter. If, on the other hand, you want to read it purely for the beauty of the classic story, I suggest you simply skip the prologue.
I had no problem with David Shih's narration, but other reviewers did. I suggest you check the sample reading before you invest a credit. It is taken from the prologue, but it is representative of the style and quality of the vocal work.
"Solid,slick,up-to-date spyfare devoid of suprises"
Jason Matthews is a very competent story teller, maintaining tension and interest throughout this very contemporary treatment of the nearly century old Russo/American espionage tango. He very effectively ushers us into the world of spying trade craft and introduces us to the grey scale palette of motivation and ethical rationalization which goes with it. I had no problem relaxing and letting his developing plot carry me along for eighteen hours. I believed the story; I liked the characters I was supposed to like and I detested those I was meant to despise. All very neat and effective.
Still, when I reached the end, I realized that I had never been either surprised or intensely engaged. Nor was I ever challenged or unsettled in the way I have come to expect from Greene or le Carre. This is story telling as diversion, and even though it spends a lot of effort explaining the emotional turmoil of the protagonists, it never really managed to bring me closer than arms length to the characters. This in spite of consistently expert reading by Jeremy Bobb.
I suspect we will be hearing more from these characters, and I will probably read the next installment if there is one. There are not that many espionage authors out there who write with this level of command, and this is a beginning. Who knows where it may lead.
"Beautifully written tedium is still tedium"
I am old enough that I should be able to relate to this novel quite easily. It is clear that a lot of people do. It is about the unreliability of memory and how that intersects with an accumulating sense of responsibility for actions which now lie partially obscured by our inexact recollections of the distant past.
The book begins with a good deal of discussion of the nature of history, but what is never said is that, after participants in events have had their shot at justifying or condemning their own actions, the real work of evaluating is done by people who have some useful distance from which to observe. Memoirs are not history whether they condemn or exonerate. They are only useful as raw material for later evaluation. And I can think of few activities more useless and self indulgent than picking apart one's own memories in search of untapped resources of guilt. Dealing with the readily apparent lapses is quite enough to keep most of us occupied. Besides, it seems to me that living as well as one can in the present is the real moral and ethical imperative and is quite enough to keep one busy and challenged as long as breath lasts.
That said, Julian Barnes, with his gorgeous prose and seductive way with the nagging mysteries of common life, comes close to making the tedious, ad infinitum self-examination palatable. And Richard Morant's voice and pace brought the obtuse Tony to convincing life (though he did not provide a voice for any of the other characters). Nonetheless, when I finished listening to the last, perfectly turned phrase, I breathed a sigh of relief.
I hope this review is transparent enough to allow listeners who love a bit of very stylish wallowing in self-reproach to recognize that this is a book which will delight on every level. I think this is one of those works which will please or disappoint based on temperament rather than taste.
"Formula is not the opposite of gritty; it's just.."
Perhaps Joe Abercrombie is a little weary of seeing the word "gritty" attached to his name in every other review, however accurate it may be. But formulaic is not an alternative to gritty; it's just...formulaic. Most of this book you have read before. Admittedly Abercrombie does it at least as well and mostly better than others, but it is impossible not to sigh and wonder why he decided to attend the party without his best clothes on. Still, reweaving old threads into a costume which is perhaps somewhat more stylish than the original demonstrates skill, albeit little inspiration. Less wise was his impulse to rework a peerless piece of stitching (a scene from Hamlet) and leave it hanging tattered on the rack. The advice comics give to their peers, "If you are going to steal, steal from the best," is not necessarily good counsel for writers.
All that being said, this is still Abercrombie, and his second or third best work is well worth reading. The ending, in particular, is very well crafted (will we have to wait until a sequel or two have come and gone before we can get you fully back, Joe?), and I was never really bored or confused. I certainly do not regret the credit, though I was also never astonished, never shocked, never terrified, never convulsed with laughter, never deeply moved, never transfixed by an image. Much more tender, much less muddy. But oh how the mighty have fallen. An extra star off for the descent from the heights, I'm afraid.
John Keating does a perfectly creditable job with the narration. Stephen Pacey or Michael Page, as much as I admire them both, would have been poor choices for this wide-eyed, coming of age story. Keating uses a variety of Scots, Irish and English dialects to set and identify the characters, and he only occasionally misses a meaningful inflection. It is strange hearing him read Abercrombie only because this is not the JA we are all used to.
"Low voltage cousin to Burke?"
The setting and central character of C. Johnson's Longmire series invite comparison with James Lee Burke's recent books set in Montana. Both authors evoke landscape and local culture with deft brush strokes which contribute not only vivid visual images but also a sometimes haunting sense of milieu which actively drives the story. Both law officers are Vietnam era vets who have evolved into men who possess tremendous charisma rooted in a wisdom and gentleness born of tragedy, loss and recovery. Both are surrounded by an engaging cast of characters who become more interesting and "real" with each book. Both mine rich veins of mysticism at times in ways which challenge our comfortable assumptions about the limits of reality.
That said, there is something much more comfortable, approachable and less visceral (not to mention bloody) in Sheriff Longmire and his adventures. If you seek antagonists who are personifications of evil, you will be disappointed here. Johnson's plots rise most often from the everyday and the prosaic while Burke's almost celebrate the existence of a kind of intrusive malevolence beyond understanding. As a result, instead of the high voltage exhilaration derived from defeating Dave Robicheaux's typically diabolical adversaries, Walt Longmire leaves us with satisfaction at a job well done and a nagging awareness of how most evil springs from roots which are very familiar to all of us.
I love both series, but I was less taken by "Crow" than by the previous Longmire novels. The victim never quite mattered enough for me, and it seemed that the investigation took a back seat to the introduction and development of a new character (a very promising one). These books are always driven by character, but the balance seemed a trifle off this time to the point that the climax of the investigation left me wanting more. Still well worth the credit, however, and I have already downloaded the next book in the series.
"Some of the blush is off the rose"
I loved the early books in this series, but I am slightly disappointed with this one.
Iggulden is a superb storyteller, no less here than in the previous Mongol works. He never allows my interest to flag; he creates complex and fascinating characters and is able to engage us emotionally; he writes battlefield descriptions to a fair-thee-well and builds suspense with remarkable skill. Plus, he is writing about some of the most amazing personalities in all of human history.
Unfortunately, while the author made a real effort to stay close to the historical narrative in the first few books and was in the habit of setting the record straight in an informative "Afterword" about instances where he had strayed or invented extensively, this time his story often bears only a passing resemblance to the facts, and he never acknowledges the discrepancies. Interestingly, there were a few times in the narrative where I had a little trouble believing the story or where it got particularly thin. Checking the history subsequently, I found some congruence between these weak points and the major departures from the factual record.
Nonetheless, I enjoyed the book a great deal, and Richard Ferrone does a terrific job with the narration. If you approach the story as fiction with some familiar names, you will probably have a fine time listening.
"How Earth scientists know what they know"
I would have to listen several more times to Hazen's very clear explanations of the details of the scientific evidence for our understanding of the history of the planet before much of it would remain in my sieve-like memory for more than a few days. What WILL persist, however, is a deep respect for the painstaking and ingenious scientific process which has yielded so much concrete understanding of events in the unimaginably distant past. The book also provides a broadly brush-stroked sequence for the Earth's development, often featuring vivid descriptions of the landscape and dynamic processes which bring the scientific findings to life in panoramas which will remain in my memory. (The image of our moon, a mere 12,000 miles away and gigantic in the sky, hurtling by overhead every few hours sporting visible volcanic fracturing, for instance.) What's more, I never would have guessed that rocks and minerals would become so fascinating and central to my understanding of the rise of life.
Hazen's narrative is replete with details of change. Two kinds of change: that which has driven the history of the planet through constant and extraordinary formation, destruction and reformation with only occasional periods of stasis, and that which has marked the development of our scientific understanding of our own particular niche in the universe. The result is a picture of mixed certitude and conjecture, and he is quite clear about the difference between the two. This is a fascinating listen, very well read. If you can deal with a good deal of clear but fairly detailed technical explanation, I recommend it to you highly.
"How everything became suddenly very simple"
This is not a particularly enlightening book, but with its moment by moment recital of the events in and around the White House at that wrenching moment in history, it does make clear how all the political skirmishing and hostility of the preceding months suddenly became inconsequential in the face of the Pearl Harbor debacle. FDR's ability to read the American will correctly at that moment and his decision to deliver a simple address informing the country of the seriousness of the attack and expressing the nation's resolve seems like the obvious choice now, but Gillon makes it clear that the President's advisers pressed for the kind of extended historical diatribe which would have diminished the clarity and power of the speech. We are left with an image of a president perfectly attuned to the task of leading a unified nation into the conflict.
There is little else of significance in Gillon's account. The biographical material about FDR's struggle with polio and the unraveling of his marriage does little to shed light on his initial response to the crisis in the Pacific, and notes about the scramble to establish a new security environment for the White House do not add much to our understanding of the crucial events of the day. As I listened I found myself waiting for more momentous revelations, but they never came.
John Pruden's narration is competent and unremarkable.
"World class reportage"
This is definitely a case of truth beggaring fiction. I found this account of America's occupation and attempted transformation of post-Hussein Iraq to be riveting--a kind of masochistic fascination is perhaps the best way to describe it. Eight years after the book was written, there has still been no adequate response to the indictment it embodies, even though the account Chandrasekaran presents is substantially undisputed.
The picture here is so appalling that it is hard not to suspect (hope?) that the author has neglected to report some positive aspects of the U.S. occupation, but one looks in vain for such material elsewhere. What's more, his on-the-spot access to the events and personnel involved with the story was clearly extraordinary. So in the end his reportage, compellingly straightforward and extremely well written, is convincing.
Ray Porter's voicing of the book was, in keeping with all his work, superb.
Do not be misled by the cover art for the book. The "Green Zone" movie starring Matt Damon was a piece of fiction inspired by but definitely distinct from this non-fiction work.
"Entertaining but unremarkable bit of the lmacabre"
This is not a genre I would normally have visited, but I was given a choice from several pre-release titles as a bonus for contributing reviews on a regular basis, and the others were even farther out of my ball park. Consequently, since I do not often venture into the horrific or the macabre, I do not feel terribly well qualified to judge this one. As a result I will resort to a simple list of what I noticed.
1. It is essentially a combination of the Jekyll/Hyde theme and the ever popular clown demon with some other pretty standard occult fare such as a hell mouth and reality shift gates thrown in for good measure.
2. It garners a good deal of its shock effect from descriptions of all the usual bodily fluids flowing, pooling, spurting, spattering, and soaking the into whatever surface is handy and repulsive.
3. The action moves along at a satisfying pace and the writing is skilled though unremarkable.
4. Unless you are especially sensitive to the aforementioned clowns, you are not going to find anything terrifying or chilling here. Creepy is about the extent of it, but some of it is creepy in a pretty entertaining way.
5. By the end I did not feel I had wasted my time listening. The story was engaging and entertaining, and the narration was quite good. Definitely worth more than the nothing I paid for it, though I doubt I would spend a full credit for the book since I usually pass on the occult.

Follow the emergence of the Antichrist from pre-Judaic texts, through the Book of Daniel and Revelation, into Christian writings of the Middle Ages, and beyond. Aided by interviewees with eminent clergy, scholars, historians and psychologists, this incisive program examines the evil enigma from every conceivable angle.

Students began working on plans for the Masonic Amphitheatre in the fall of 2011 as part of the third year architecture student program, designbuild/LAB at Virginia Tech. The 16-person team worked with community members to reinvision the site and provide space for meetings, events, concerts, and much more. The school's previous design/build class had dismantled the warehouse that sat on the site and used it to build the Covington Farmer's Market. All that was left was the foundation, which was used as the base for the new theater. Each student contributed an idea to the project, which was seen as a built structure emerging out of the landscape of the park. The lawn slowly ramps up to connect to the roof and other landscape elements form the amphitheater seating.
Much of the work for the theater was prefabricated offsite before bringing it to Clifton Forge where it was assembled. The students used locally sourced white oak and utilized digital fabrication techniques to cut the wood and the metal composite panels as a way of minimizing waste. The overall design of the structure seeks to connect the stage with both the creek in the back as well as the landscape open space. Pervious paving materials allow stormwater to infiltrate the ground rather than run off into the creek. LED lights minimize energy use and orientation and use of trees for shade provide protection from the sun. Watch a time lapse video of the construction here.

When I was little, I used to love spending the night at my grandparents' house, where I was allowed to watch TV, stay up late, and in the morning, help my grandmother make pancakes. The hardest part was always waiting for her old, slow electric burner to heat up — to my six-year-old self, it seemed to take hours for the burner to become hot enough after we'd finished mixing the batter. Luckily for me, and for other impatient chefs […]Read more ⇢

Multiphysics simulation is all around us, although everyone may not realize it. Simulation may be the last thing people consider when cooking breakfast on the stove, driving with their sun-roof open, or crossing a bridge, but behind these routine activities lies a team of engineers and researchers working to make it all possible — perhaps a team you're part of.

Metamaterials are a new and emerging technology with vast potential to reshape our views on what is and isn't possible in this physical world of ours. Unlocking the mysteries and overcoming the obstacles associated with metamaterials would lead to a host of technological advances once thought impossible by even the most imaginative of individuals. From making computer chips smaller and faster than the most advanced current ones, to protecting structures from earthquakes, to developing imaging technology that doesn't harm tissue […]Read more ⇢

The electrical grid describes the network created for producing electricity, transmitting it and delivering it to the consumers. A "smart grid" is an electrical grid that gathers information on the suppliers and consumers automatically to improve efficiency and sustainability in the system. As the automated technology improves, the hardware that physically connects the electrical grid together must improve as well. This hardware, the "nuts and bolts" of the grid, is comprised of transformers, cable joints, terminations, bushings, and fault current […]Read more ⇢

Ultra-precise optical components require blemish-free surfaces that often cannot be achieved by the machining processes that grind these components. Fluid jet polishing (FJP) is a new technology being developed by Zeeko Ltd to replace the hand polishing that was often required. With the help of COMSOL, Zeeko was able to create a product that polishes the optical components in only ten minutes instead of an entire day, and without waveforms.Read more ⇢

Microbubbles filled with oxygen can be injected into contaminated lakes to restore the water quality. Typically, water is purified via water-treatment plants, but this microbubble technique is both inexpensive and more environmentally-friendly in comparison. As seen in a COMSOL News 2011 article, oxygen microbubbles are a researcher's way of copying nature's own self-restoration mechanism for cleaning contaminated lakes.Read more ⇢

Hydraulic fracturing (popularly referred to as "fracking") is a method to increase production of oil and gas from certain types of geological formations. It has been used for decades, but recently, as the practice has increased, fracking has become a controversial topic. I will avoid taking sides in this debate, but the fact that there is a conflict implies there needs to be a deeper understanding of the process and its effects.Read more ⇢

I learned that you can stuff cyclamen leaves just like grape leaves. I saw wild asparagus, zaatar, fennel, borage, a mastic bush, which is used to make chewing gum and is also used in ice cream, and navel wort, which Mimi uses as an ingredient in the amazing moisturizer that she makes. We did not pick any of these plants because most of them are protected by law, but it was fun learning about them. I Click here to continue reading this post

Comments about Akila Wig by Especially Yours®:
I love changing it up, and not having to wait to do it or go to a stylist for it. That's how and why I us wigs. I'm a busy wife/mom. My hair is natural and if I don't have time to blow it out I need something that I can throw on and know I look good and presentable. This piece doesn't look as "ethnic" as the pic, so you'll have to style it to get that look, I still love it though.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

I love this style!! It is the natural afro to the max!!! I feel so nubian when I wear it and it's definitely a head turner. Just remember to pin it down because there's nothing to hold it on and it WILL blow in the wind.

Don't Do it Girl
By Bella
from Atlanta
Bought the wig because I wanted the look of a natural fro without the upkeep to give my natural hair a rest. I also was drawn to the color and the fact that it looks great on the model. The wig looks absolutely horrible, the pictures do it no justice. The hair is shiny and non-natural looking and has no style to it whatsoever.
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend
Merchant response: Dear Bella,We are sorry you did not thoroughly enjoy your purchase. Some customers use dyer sheets to remove some of the unwanted shine from the new wigs to get the sheen they desire. Hope this tip helps!Thanks,Especially Yours Customer Support Team
