Visiondivision and their helpers employed a variety of gentle techniques to mold the trees in a specific way. These include bending, twisting, pruning, grafting, braiding, and weaving. They have even adjusted how much water and light the trees receive, which in turn controls how they grow. 10 trees were used in all, 4 of which have been set aside to create two pairs of stairs.
The remaining trees are spaced equally in an 8 meter diameter circle and will be guided into their appropriate shapes by a temporary 6 meter high wood tower. Everything in this structure is made from trees, plants, and grass, and when the beautiful cherry trees blossom, so will The Patient Gardener. In a world where we frequently sacrifice aesthetics and sound ecology for speed, this amazing structure is a breath of floral-scented air! For additional diagrams and details, please visit Visiondivision's website.

Eden Organic Brown Rice Vinegar is made from organically grown, cooked brown rice Oryza sative, koji Aspergillus oryzae, a small amount of seed vinegar from a previous batch and pure water. These ingredients are blended and placed in earthenware crocks that are partially buried outdoors in the earth, covered and fermented for about eight months. The enzymes in the koji break down the complex starches in the rice, converting them to simple sugars. Yeast from the koji and seed vinegar further break down the sugar into alcohol. Bacteria in the seed vinegar then converts the alcohol to acetic acid or vinegar. 4.5 percent acidity.
A vinegar that is labeled 'rice vinegar' does not assure quality. Many commercial vinegars are synthetic products made from glacial acetic acid, a petroleum product. Others are made from alcohol produced for industrial use. Please avoid any vinegar labeled 'distilled,' as it is the most highly refined.
Authentic brown rice vinegar is considered a healthful food in Japan and is served with almost every meal.
Rice vinegar was brought from China to Japan in the fourth century A.D., at about the same time that the closely related process for making rice wine (sake) was introduced. Natural rice vinegar maintained its popularity in Japan until the early 1900s when the cheaper brewing methods were developed. Eden Organic Brown Rice Vinegar is the healthiest, original version.

Seventy percent of the earth's surface is covered by water, and the overwhelming majority of that is the saltwater that fills our oceans. Add in the salt around the rims of our margarita glasses, it becomes painfully apparent that one of these days your iPhone or iPad may come into contact with salt water.The question then is whether a 'waterproof' LifeProof case is also salt proof, or put more simply: does waterproof mean salt proof?
The answer is yes. When you have your smartphone protected by a dust proof and waterproof iPhone case, it also delivers the protection you need from salt and saltwater. So, if you're setting out to break the Toyota Prius land speed record at the Bonneville Salt Flats, and using your iPad to record the winning results, a LifeProof case protects against the salty dust in the air. Whether it's dissolved in liquid or in its granular state, salt incursion is no match for a LifeProof case.This is really good news. Anyone who lives in an area like the "Rust Belt" where they toss salt on the roads to melt snow and ice knows how corrosive salt is to metal. There's a lot of metal inside the iPhone and iPad. A little bit of salt sneaking through one of the ports could be devastating.
Of course, this is also great news for tropical island vacationers, ocean liner cruise travelers and guys who work the undersea gold dredging operations in Nome, Alaska. Protected by a waterproof iPhone case, you can take your phone out to sea, video your exploits and create memories that last a lifetime. And, with electronics, your electronics may just last as long as your memories.Not only do our cases protect against the minor accidental splash of saltwater, they allow you to take your iPhone underwater to a depth of 6.6 feet for up to a half hour. And, if you seek ultimate peace of mind and water protection, check out the optional LifeProof Total Water Protections Program.
Let's sum it up with a little seasoning:• Most of earth's water is salt water
• LifeProof cases protect against saltwater
• LifeProof cases also protect against granular salt
• Safely take your device on—and under—the sea in a LifeProof case

Sebastian Vettel isn't too worried about Red Bull's lack of running in Jerez, saying testing is the time to have problems.
The German and his team-mate Daniel Ricciardo managed just 21 laps over the course of the four days at the Spanish track.
Hampered by engine issues and overheating, Red Bull eventually called an early end to the test.
But rather than worry about it, Vettel is adamant testing is the perfect time to have issues.
"Other teams drove more miles, which is important because everything is still new," he told Sports Bild..
"But," he added, "it is better to have the problems now in the test than later in the race.
"I hope that Bahrain is better."
Weighing in on the engine issues Renault experienced in Jerez, the Red Bull racer said: "We must not underestimate this, the new drive units are a huge challenge.
"Everything is still completely new.
"I believe that both Renault and us will solve the Jerez problems but there is no guarantee that another part will go."

It's no surprise you're feeling a little down about the situation in front of you. Could you have done things better or differently to keep the tenant / landlord relationship in tact? It's a tough balance for most landlords to be friendly yet stern when the 1st of the month rolls around. Processes and procedures are key to manage properties in Houston. Most investors find it easier just to have someone else deal with the stress. That's where we come in!
When it's time to get your tenants out, I could probably guess they are a few months behind and you're kicking yourself because you hadn't filed for a Houston Eviction Service sooner. Am I right? Luckily for you, Stress Free Property Solutions are your best source of knowledge and expertise on the new eviction laws that took in effect September 1st, 2013.
Filing evictions can be pain. Actually, being a landlord can be a pain! There is nothing glamorous about it. Managing a property can be a second job if you're not careful. Training tenants to follow your rules and procedures is nearly impossible.... Cough Cough, by yourself that is. At Stress Free Property Solutions we have implemented the most state of the art software to professionally manage properties. It comes natural to us and we're good at it. We can help you no matter how big or small your portfolio is.
Letting us handle your eviction could be the best decision you've made all year. We take care of the judge and the tenant while you wait for a phone call letting you know it's over! Yes, I'm serious. After you hand your eviction over to us we do all the heavy lifting. You can simply sit on the sidelines while you watch everyone work. I guarantee, you'll be smiling at the end of the day!

Getting dressed every morning can feel like a battle, which is why you need this easy-to wear military style.
The Best Army Jackets Straight From Our Fashion Director
- 1 of 11
Field jackets are my standby when the weather is in that transitional phase between Indian summer and early autumn chill. And I'm convinced that there's one for every personality, no matter how ladylike you claim to be. If you're not sure how to wear this third piece, just ask yourself: "What would Miranda Kerr do"— it's a part of her style bible as well. Keep reading for my top 10 picks.
- 2 of 11
Dads Army Jacket ($139) in Khaki
This army jacket offers a surprise element with its bright flannel lining, so roll up the sleeves to show off the of-the-moment plaid detailing.
- 3 of 11
Women's Amelia Jacket ($345) in Discovery Green
I'm instantly sold on anything that marries form with function, and since this one is water resistant, it's a done deal.
- 4 of 11
The Lone Soldier Military Jacket ($328) in Khaki-Green
Can't decide on black or green? This dip-dye style is the perfect way to split the difference.
- 5 of 11
Alpha Industries
M-65 Field Coat ($140) in Black
I love the idea of an authentic M-65 coat in black, which could be worn as a chic evening jacket.
- 6 of 11
Steven Alan
Droptail Military Parka ($475) in Olive
Steven Alan's parka toes the line of anorak territory, so I suggest wearing it over a motorcycle jacket for that model-off-duty-at-the-Paris-shows effect.
- 7 of 11
70S Army Jacket ($415) in Military Khaki
A shrunken camo style will look great as a light layering piece over a t-shirt.
- 8 of 11
G-Star Raw
Navy Field Jacket ($260)
With leather sleeves and a sharply tailored fit, this fitted iteration is what I would wear with a pencil skirt and boyish sweater.
- 9 of 11
Twill Fleece-Lined Parka ($148) in Navy
Sherpa lining adds extra warmth, plus, the navy blue will add a shot of color to my gray or black ensembles.
- 10 of 11
3.1 Phillip Lim
Merino Marten Blend Canvas Trompe L'oeil Anorak ($795) in Khaki Green
The knit detail on the back of this oversized, heavyweight version gives it a clever twist.
- 11 of 11
Jersey Sleeve Camo Hooded Jacket ($110) in Khaki
Half hoodie, half field jacket, this hybrid version will look great with skinny leather jeans.

Did not discuss the policy when went through AARP for insurance
Posted by
HOUSTON, TEXAS -- In 2007 we switched over to Hartford to get cheaper rates and never once did they explain that our deductible is based on a percent of the home value. Well there is no way that I would have agreed on this which they know would be turned down. So what do you do with policies when you get them in the mail after talking to the seller, you put it up in a safe place until needed. Well we all know Hurricane Ike hit us here in Houston 2 weeks ago. The house fared well but took off the shingles on on side of the house. I called and reported the damage and it took almost 2 weeks to get an adjuster out and over the phone before he got here told me I had a 5% deductible which was in the amount of $7,900.00 leaving them paying me just over $600.00 total. Well I was furious and got on the phone and spoke with (won't say his name) that didn't know anything. He told me I had a choice of percents when the policy was written. He was belligerent, and rude. He put me on hold and when he came back he told me in this entire coastal area there is no choice, it's 5% of the home value and that's the way it is and they don't have to tell this when selling a policy.
I have called around to other insurance companies and all they could do was laugh saying it is standard to have a 2% deductible. Not 5%!! The bad thing, AARP recommend Hartford. Do you know how many of us live from day to day on fixed incomes in our senior days. Do you know how many belong to the AARP? Millions!! This deepens the pockets of the Corporate office from the CEO,of the Hartford and without the seniors of AARP, they won't get their yearly bonuses all the way down.
To hell with the senior citizens just trying to make it until they die. I have switched insurance companies and I hope this wakes up all you other seniors before you get the screwing I did. Cancel Hartford and get some quotes on different companies. Change now!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I just received a call from the VP of claims saying they looked at the transcript of the conversation that they taped when the policy was sold. (Now get this, I was told earlier there was no record of the call because it had been a year and all the sudden up jumps a tape saying the 5% was discussed but not what the 5% was for.) Anyway he said they were not making any adjustments because she had agreed to 5%. You would have to be BRAINDEAD to purchase a $7,900.00 deductible policy and my wife is a school teacher and very intelligent person and very tight with our money. I have now dropped the insurance from the AARP insurance program with the Hartford Insurance Co. I now have a 1% policy and 2% for wind paying less with State Farm on deductables. We also switched our cars over to State Farm as well and the whole policy was cheeper than Hartford for which they are supposed to represent the elderly with AARP. SHAME ON YOU HARTFORD, YOU ARE NOT THE ONLY INSURANCE COMPANY OUT THERE!!!

steve101 on 09/29/2008:
You are supposed to READ a new policy that you get in the mail before putting it away in a safe place.The terms are plainly and clearly shown on the Declarations page of your policy. You wanted cheaper rates, that means you take on more risk in the form of a higher deductible.
RR on 12/17/2008:
I used to be in the appliance repair business and not the insurance business! I was under the impression the policy was $500.00 deductible or 5% of the total damage and in good faith that is why I filed away my policy upon receiving the policy. I can tell you how to repair a microwave oven and when you electrocute yourself, don't come back and tell me you forgot to read that part. You bunch of idiots. Since all this happened, they sent me a check for $600.00 on a $9000.00 repair. I sent the check back and told them they needed that money worse than me and didn't want any part of their insurance money!!!!!! I used my savings of $8500.00 and now have a new roof that I paid out of my pocket. I have since written a letter to Senator Kay Bailey Hutchison, explaining how The Hartford company are nothing but highway roberey specialists.

Avoid This Company if You Value Your Sanity!
Posted by
MANCHESTER, TENNESSEE -- The Hartford has to be the worst company that I have ever dealt with. My local agent switched us to The Hartford without prior knowledge or our approval on January 1, 2012. The rates were absurd but it was too late to switch due to my escrow account already paying out before we even were given a quote. In the beginning of October 2012, we received a notice from The Hartford that they had randomly inspected our home and that due to slight curling of the shingles, our home was declared a hazard. We were given 2 weeks to have a roofing contractor to come evaluate and repair our roof and provide evidence that the work had been completed otherwise our policy would be cancelled. We hired a roofer and he said that we had hail and slight wind damage and should file a claim. By the time a claim's representative came out to inspect the roof, the 2 week deadline had passed and I notified the underwriting department of our progress. My roofer quoted a $4800 price to replace the roof... The Hartford sent a check for $870 and once the roof was completed and evidence provided, sent another $2600. So we were bullied into this new roof, to replace a non-leaking 14 year old shingled roof. Fast forward to the end of November and what happens? We receive a nonrenewal notice from The Hartford due to not repairing the hazardous roof! Phone calls were made and nobody within their arrogant staff was willing to even listen to our problem and certainly not try to find a solution to the main concern of nonrenewal due to hazards showing up on our file as we go to find a new policy holder. It took me calling them out on Facebook to even get an employee to listen, but they still didn't get this garbage removed from our file.... just the standard hired "apologizing and butt kissing" employee. I want to save anybody considering The Hartford from the stress and maddening situations that come with being their customer. I will be airing my grievances on any forum possible as well as contacting the Insurance Commission about their shoddy practices.

Denial of my claim based on the case worker's prejudice
Posted by
My worker's comp claim was denied, I strongly believe, because the case worker that was assigned to handle my claim was prejudiced. When I called to make my claim about my work injury, this lady's attitude was really rude, she was "taking down" to me the moment she heard my accent. I've been an American citizen for many years. Throughout the 20 years of my family and I living in the land of the free, we have plenty of" experience" in being prejudiced against because we are not born here. I'm fluent in three languages including English. However, this case worker from Hartford workers compensation didn't return some of my few calls when I called with questions regarding my claim.(She was rude and hateful in her answers to my questions when she returned a couple of my calls). She ignored most of my few past calls except this morning when she returned my call to tell me that she denied my claim. This claim agent has done this for one month, stringing me along. I have filed all the paper work she asked for. I believe that she already made the decision to deny my claim from the beginning of the claim process. She told me from the first phone conversation that I would get the least amount of money, she constantly, tried to "put words in my mouth"; statements that I was not making, she was "taking down" to me, like I was some illiterate foreigner; to state that she was rude is an understatement.
I haven't been this disrespected in a while.

File an appeal with the Worker's Comp Board in your state.

I hate to tell you this, but this is how most WC claims adjusters are, it has nothing to do with your ethnicity. Hire a lawyer to help you through this.
Starlord on 09/13/2011:
In most cases, what spidey saysw is right. Worker's Comp seems to work a lot like SSDI. They pretty much deny everyone and hope you will go away. Appeal and keep appealing. I had to fight the SSA for three years to get my disability benefits. Not to be nit picky, don't you mean talking down to you? Is this Hartford the same company that offers car insurance for AARP? I was not aware they did Worker's Comp, that is usually a governmental agency.
Anonymous on 09/13/2011:
Starlord, workmans compensation is handled through private agencies such as The Hartford, JT2, not governmental agencies.
OP, you need to get a lawyer. Once the claim has been denied, the only way to fight is successfully is to get a lawyer. What you experienced it typical behavior from workmans comp. Once they've accepted you claim, it only gets worse. They drag their a**s on everything!
Starlord on 09/13/2011:
Mom, when I was injured on the job in Sandy Eggo, I had to deal with the California Workmen's Compensation Board, not Allstate or The Hartford. Sorry, but that is what happened.
lexophiliac on 09/14/2011:
In the vast majority of states, workman's compensation is solely provided by private insurance companies (TPI's) with a state governing board overseeing various public/private workman's comp systems. Federal employees have another compensation system.
Anonymous on 09/14/2011:
Lexophiliac is correct. I am in California and the workman's comp board is the governing agency however workman's comp insurance is provided by a private insurer. The board acts as a 3rd party mediator and enforces the rules. When your claim is denied, you *can* appeal it through the WC board but it is best to get a lawyer to represent you. My husband has been dealing with WC for 3 years now. JT2 is the private insurer that is handling his claim. All meetings & negotiations are held at the local state workmens compensation office and it is their judge who makes the ruling when you go in to arbitration but that's basically where it ends. If my hubby gets a new prescription, requires surgery, etc, it has to be approved by JT2 not the workmens compensation board. When he's out on disability, his wages are paid by JT2 not the state.
kinthenorthwest on 09/14/2011:
Due to all people who frauduantly claim workers comp, many worker comp employers have become hard nose. Along with that it is very very to get workers comp now adays, especially for injuries that are not (how do you say it ) very obvious..
There are so many people that have screwed the wc system with non-existent back injuries and emotional injuries...
lexophiliac on 09/14/2011:
Following along those lines, another daunting obstacle kinthenorthwest is that once an approved claim has been satisfied and closed, and a future issue(s) stemming from the original claim arises, it can be very difficult to get the claim reopened and compensated for.
fraudisbiggerwithemployers on 08/09/2013:
The truth is that for every dollar lost due to fraudulent claims there are many more dollars lost due to fraudulent employers not reporting the accurate number of employees hired

"Losing the paperwork"
Posted by
To disclose, I work for an insurance company who's short term disability benefits are administered by The Hartford.
On Halloween I was jumped by some drunk idiots outside a bar while trying to catch a cab. Luckily for me, the police witnessed the entire incident and chased the perpetrators 4 blocks to arrest them. However, it was not conveyed from the officers to the EMTs the nature of the attack. I only learned a week later when the detective called me to ask if I had remembered being kicked in the head which I had clearly had no recollection of. To make matters worse, the ER techs only stitched me up and didn't even bandage me, let alone treat me for the stage 3 concussion I was eventually diagnosed with.
It took me weeks to get a specialist's appointment, and it took the doctors at the concussion clinic 6 weeks after the incident to establish that I needed time off and that my condition was regressing.
The Hartford doesn't seem to agree and tipped their hand to me on the 17th or so call still making an issue that I worked for almost 6 weeks after the incident, and has denied my claim twice -- not because they think my condition is not legitimate, but citing paperwork not yet received and losing doctors reports. Not helping me is that my doctors don't use e-mail and are very hard to reach.
Considering my condition left me in a space cadet state where I was misplacing my house keys on a regular basis, I'd say the Hartford is currently doing a pretty good job of exploiting me trying to get me frustrated and give up, since they can't really deny me any other way.
This probably could have been handled better if the EMTs and the ER treated me for a concussion but leave it to a for-profit insurance company to try to exploit the situation. And since I work for one, I'm not oblivious to what can happen in the industry.
I'm on Round Three of sending them doctors paperwork -- lets see what happens this time!

Overall Very Good, But Very Expensive
Posted by
TULSA, OKLAHOMA -- Introduced to the Hartford by AARP. When first insured by The Hartford, premiums were low and very competitive. Whenever I had claims they were prompt and their selected auto collision repair was excellent with only one disagreement (broken windshield from hailstorm was not included in the hail damaged body work; ten years ago, I still have a broken window because they wanted a second claim filed). All other storm and collision damages were promptly and equitably paid without much effort. I rate The Hartford a 4.9 of 5.0 on claims resolution. Premiums however are now just about backbreaking so I am changing insurance companies.

No Communication After a Minor Accident
Posted by
VANCOUVER, WASHINGTON -- In late 2010, I inadvertently backed into and dented the plastic from bumper of another car. The dent was about 5 inches long and maybe 1/2 inch deep. I was at fault. The owner of the car I hit got it repaired to the tune of $770.00.
Because I was without insurance at the time, (I am insured now) I was liable for the cost. Rather than contact me, the Hartford sent the claim directly to a debt collector in Florida. I finally paid off the $770.00 and have the final receipt. If the Hartford treats everyone this way, no contact, then it is no wonder that they have the highest premium rates I have seen. I was seriously thinking about moving all my insurance needs to them, car, house and contents. But, after this experience, I do not even want to drive by any of their offices, much less go to them for insurance.

Hartford Giant Ripoff
Posted by
After a quick review of a recent billing of my homeowner's policy through The Hartford I find out that the yearly policy amount has more than doubled. I am from Ohio and I knew something was up as compared to other policies from other companies. I am also in complete agreement with others who think the AARP is taking a large cut from these insurer's. I am now paying in one yearly billing to another company for more insurance coverage then I would have paid through Hartford in one quarter coverage. This is a scam and have even though of turning them in to the BBB.

For this kind of complaint, the BBB can't do anything for you.
It sounds like you took your business elsewhere, which is your most powerful course of action as a consumer. Filing a complaint like this alerts others who may not yet thought of doing the same. Helpful comment.
ok4now on 04/30/2012:
A few years ago Hartford offered me a great rate and I took it. No accidents or claims. Now the policy comes up for renewal with a $600 a year increase. Huh? I called customer service for an explanation. They said that their rates were being "adjusted" to reflect the current market. What B.S. I shopped around and went with the Amica Insurance Company. Rated number one by Consumer Reports. Their rate was even lower than when I started with Hartford. I cancelled the Hartford policy and have been happy with Amica.

It is not a scam; some companies charge more than others. It just shows the importance of being watchful like the OP has been.

Hartford says they use the guidelines of doctors that are members of the American Medical Association. Any doctor with the right qualifications can be a member including doctors on the payroll of Hartford. Their guidelines for my open heart surgery had me going back to work after 6 weeks. Ha Ha.
My doctors refused to sign a Medical Release Statement to let me go back to work because my employer- Wal-Mart does not allow "light-duty". They expect me to go back to work after 6 weeks post-op of an open-heart valve replacement surgery.
They need to update their guidelines!!! My cardiac surgeon of 30 years refuses to let me go back before 90 days post-op and they say I should go back 6 weeks. What's sad they know my work duty requirements because the initial application for benefits was signed via the Walmartbenefits.com website which redirects you to Hartford still under the Wal-Mart website. They knew my job required me to lift boxes weighing up to 50+ pounds and they still expect me to go back to work after only 6 weeks.
Puts me in a tight place - 30 days without any pay for me, my wife, and my son! My doctor will not release me but the Hartford will not approve my benefits extension beyond 6 weeks.

The Hartford STD Do Not Support Their Claims Request 100%
Posted by
WHITSETT, NORTH CAROLINA -- Thr Hartford denied my short disability claim. They paid me for two weeks and after that nothing. My diagnosis was that I had a "stroke". My left side was not functioning at that time 25%. They thought I should be ready for work after two weeks - totally ridiculous! Not a good company to support.
The pain and suffering from this along made it difficult to heal effectively. To worry about your bills being paid while recuperation is taking place is not a good policy.

ATLANTA, GEORGIA -- I work for the world's largest retailer. I got the flu in November but still came to work through the holidays. After New Year I couldn't keep up anymore. I went to the doctor on January 5th,2010. I decided the best thing for me to do was to take a leave of absence since company policy states that after calling out for three consecutive days you must take a leave of absence. I continued to go to the doctor on a weekly basis since I was not getting better with the medicine I was prescribed. I filed a claim for short-term disability with the Hartford. After five doctor's visits and four different diagnosis codes, my claim was denied. Since then I am still ill, have been to the emergency room, the urgent care center, a new doctor and now to see a specialist. Is the Hartford crazy? What part of my illness do they not get? I've been paying into short-term disability for years and can't get my money now that I need it. There's definitely something wrong with this system and it needs to be corrected. I am filing an appeal and will get a lawyer if need be!

First, NEVER put your job over your health. Second, they probably need a solid diagnosis with an estimated date of return before they can approve the leave.

if you were a fulltime employee, you have rights to accident and sickness pay. depending on your companies a&s, if part time, you may have no rights. this sounds moore like a call to your hr director.
Starlord on 03/02/2010:
I guess you missed the memo for the CDC. If you were sick, you had an obligation to stay home until you were well. How many people did you infect with the flu while you kept going in to work? Sounds like the 'world's largest retailer' (hmmmm, sounds familiar) didn't care about its associates and customers being given a bonus as they worked or shopped. Sorry, but as someone who was once infected because others put themselves ahead of the public's safety, I have little sympathy. I spent six weeks in bed because a drive-in decided not to put the proper amount of chemical in their dishwasher. Mono is a bear.

After reaching a deal to avert the so-called fiscal cliff, it's crunch time for Congress to work on another looming deadline. Erin Billups has more on negotiations over the nation's debt ceiling.
WASHINGTON, D.C. -- The U.S. Treasury has taken "extraordinary measures" to keep the government running. It's now operating through $200 billion in emergency borrowing authority.
"The government has hit that allowable limit of borrowing," said Sarah Binder, Brookings Institution Senior Fellow.
The U.S. reached that limit on New Year's Eve. According to the Bipartisan Policy Center, the government will be unable to pay all of its bills by as early as February 15th.So the president will need Congress to raise that debt limit, something Republicans say they will not do without getting spending cuts in return.
"I want to raise the debt ceiling, but I will not do it without a plan to get out of debt," South Carolina Senator Lindsey Graham said.
It's shaking up to be a repeat of the 2011 debt ceiling fight which led to U.S. credit being downgraded, something experts like Binder says lawmakers should do their best to avoid.
Binder said, "Many people disagree that the debt ceiling is the way to make those changes. Why not make them over entitlements themselves as opposed to taking hostage this ceiling that essentially puts at risk the government to default? That's not something to be played lightly with."
President Obama has said he won't engage in another debate over the debt ceiling.
"The president expects that Congress will fulfill its essential responsibility to pay the bills that Congress has incurred," said White House Spokesman Jay Carney.
But Obama may not be able to avoid the fight.
"In reality, yes, he has to grapple with Congress and the question of how it's going to be raised. I think he just doesn't want to pay a price, a direct price for it," Binder said.
And right after the debt limit is addressed, lawmakers will then have to find a way to solve the issue of $110 billion in delayed automatic cuts to defense and non-defense spending in March. Whether both issues can be squared away without a down to the wire fight, we'll have to wait and see.
"We should start talking about it next week when we go back to Washington instead of ten days before we fall off another cliff," New York Senator Charles Schumer said.

Your Undead Post, Part II: Hyundai Builds Zombie-Killing Machine in 'Chop Shop'
"If you want to survive, listen up."
So begins Innocean's new spot "Speech" for Hyundai (Two undead posts in a day? What the hell, it's October). The speaker of those lines credits his ability to live off the land and fight for his survival, but an onlooker points to his Hyundai zombie-killing vehicle. Although the spot's attempt at humor falls mostly flat, it was perfectly timed, debuting last night during the premiere of AMC's The Walking Dead. The 30 second spot was also show during Talking Dead last night, while "The Walking Dead Chop Shop" — the site that lets users build their own Zombie Survival Machine — launched during San Diego's Comic-Con in July. Innocean's television spot will be accompanied by three digital spots in all — "Speech," "Cooler" and "Difference — airing on Hyundai's social media channels.
The spot functions not just as a stand-alone advertisement, but as a way to drive viewers to the "The Walking Dead Chop Shop" site, which is a great tie-in. Actually, I'm kind of not sure if the spot is a tie-in for the site, or the site is a tie-in for the spot. I'm going with the former, since the site existed first. At any rate, we covered "The Walking Dead Chop Shop" back in July, but for the link-averse, here's a short review: you can use any of three Hyundai vehicles as your base-vehicle and then pimp them out with all kinds of accessories, like razor wire, a "horde plow" and (of course) flame throwers and cattle guns. This isn't exactly my sort of thing, but it should be a lot of fun for the car/weapon happy and zombie-obsessed. Credits after the jump.

Koji is prepared using Aspergillus oryzae spores. This particular species is especially plentiful in the town of Okazaki, in Aichi prefecture where EDEN Organic Hacho Miso is produced. The Hatcho Miso Company located on Hatcho-cho (8th Street), makers of Eden Organic Hacho Miso, was founded five centuries ago and is one of the originators of hacho miso. This miso is produced according to their traditional methods dating back to 1337 AD.
Eden Organic Hacho Miso is the product of generations of experience and perfected techniques. The soybeans are cleaned, soaked, cooked, and crushed, then shaped into into two inch crosses creating the maximum surface area for the growth of koji. The bean crosses are then lightly dusted with a mixture of Aspergillus oryzae spores and roasted barley flour, then incubated for 48 to 72 hours depending on the season. When incubation is complete the crosses are covered with a fragrant bloom of pale yellow koji growth. The koji covered crosses are mixed with a small amount of water and sea salt and transferred to huge cedar vats. These 200 year old vats are approximately seven feet deep and seven feet in diameter. Each vat holds several tons. Large pieces of thick cotton cloth and heavy wooden discs or pressing lids are placed on top of the inoculated soybean mixture. A pyramid of large river stones, usually 100 or more and equal to the weight of the soybean mixture, is built on top of the pressing lid. The enzymes from the koji slowly mellows the mixture, transforming the complex protein, carbohydrates and fats of the soybeans into dark, rich, flavorful miso as it ages/ferments for up to three full summers. It is then double bagged in a resealable, standing pouch. No chemicals or additives of any kind are used whatsoever.
Hacho miso has a distinctive richness, deep flavor and heartiness that makes it particularly suited to cooler climates or seasons. It has been taken on Japanese expeditions to the South Pole and Japanese mountain climbing expeditions as an easy to use and energizing food source with readily available protein. Ancient shogun warriors were fed hacho miso for strength and endurance, and the Emperor of Japan is said to enjoy hatcho miso every day.
Miso is rapidly gaining recognition in the West as a protective, delicious super food. Miso contains a wealth of enzymes and microorganisms that aid digestion and help to build healthy intestinal flora while keeping undesirable flora in check. During fermentation the protein of the soybeans and grain are disassembled into amino acids, including all eight essential ones.
Hacho Miso Amino Acid profile per 1 Tbsp serving
• Alanine 83mg • Leucine 134mg
• Arginine 83mg • Lysine 83mg
• Aspartic Acid 187mg • Methionine 19mg
• Cysteine 24mg • Phenylalanine 99mg
• Glutamic Acid 304mg • Proline 88mg
• Glycine 71mg • Serine 85mg
• Histidine 36mg • Threonine 65mg
• Hydroxyproline mg • Tryptophan 10mg
• Isoleucine 83mg • Tyrosine 78mg
• Valine 94mg
The enzymes in miso aid in the digestion of protein and starches in grains, beans, and vegetables, making it an essential addition to a vegetarian or mostly vegetarian way of eating. Fermentation breaks down the trypsin inhibitors in soybeans allowing for full utilization of the protein. Miso soup is a satisfying way of regularly consuming two powerful healthy foods, miso and sea vegetables.
Eden Organic Hacho Miso is ideal for winter dishes. Enjoy in soups, marinades, sauces, noodles, and stewed vegetables. Add 2 teaspoons to a quarter cup of Eden Organic Mustard for delicious Miso Mustard.

Your file reappears, and the Accessibility Checker task pane shows the inspection results.
Top of Page
The Accessibility Checker checks your file against a set of possible issues for people who have disabilities might experience in your file. Each issue is classified as an Error, Warning, or Tip.
Fixing some issues might require you to change, reformat, or update your content.
Accessibility Checker also lets you know about Office features you can use to make your content more accessible.
For detailed explanations of the issues the Accessibility Checker looks for, see Rules used by the Accessibility Checker.

Marius Roosendaal is a graphics designer and art director from Netherlands. His work is mainly graphics and typography focused, but also include interaction design and corporate identity. I find that his designs adhere very strongly to the design principles. His use of grids, alignment and repetition is very consistent across his designs and makes the pieces very strong. I love his use of simple geometric shapes as building blocks to his designs as well as his choice of colour palettes. He usually chooses soft shades of complementary colours to create contrast that goes easy on the eyes. I also love how he has combined the use of colours and texture to give a nostalgic and worn off look in some of his other designs.
