4 tbsp vegetable oil
1 onion, peeled, chopped
1 garlic clove, peeled, crushed to a paste with the edge of a knife
2 celery stalks, trimmed, finely chopped
2 heads broccoli, chopped into florets
750ml/1¼ pints hot vegetable stock
6 rashers streaky bacon
100ml/3½fl oz double cream
100g/3½oz Stilton, crumbled
salt and freshly ground black pepper
handful fresh parsley, leaves only, chopped
Heat two tablespoons of the oil in a frying pan over a medium heat. Add the onion, garlic and celery and fry for 4-5 minutes until softened.
Add the broccoli and stock and bring to boil, then reduce the heat until the mixture is simmering and continue to simmer for 12-15 minutes, or until the broccoli florets are tender.
While the soup is cooking, wrap each date in a rasher of streaky bacon. Heat the remaining two tablespoons of oil in a frying pan over a medium heat. Add the wrapped dates and fry for 3-4 minutes, turning regularly, until the bacon is cooked through and crisp all over.
When the soup has simmered, blend it until smooth using a stick blender. Add the cream and Stilton and blend again until smooth and well combined. Season, to taste, with salt and freshly ground black pepper.
To serve, place one wrapped date into each of six serving bowls. Ladle over the soup, then sprinkle over the parsley.

Awesome Experience
East Coast Breeze Rectangle Invitations This was the most painless experience I've had with my DIY wedding. Magnet Street allowed me to create exactly what I had envisioned in my head! I'm getting married on the beach, but didn't want something cheesy. My wedding is minimalistic and casual, which is what my invite embodies. Bits of the graphic are pixilated, but other than that I have zero complaints. The printing was quick and the packaging was superb. The paper quality is top notch. My mother almost keeled over upon opening it, so it passed the Judi test. :-)
We loved our wedding invites!

Ocean Breeze Rectangle Invitations Magnet Street and their staff were very easy to work with. They called to inform when I ordered the invitations that the envelopes I had ordered were a different paper type and the # I ordered may be too many extras. They were extremely nice and even made sure my colors the way I wanted and the invitation read correctly.
Beautiful! Very happy

|I'm not sure what this is!! I know it's one I purchased in the past couple of years... I was thinking BobbiSue, because I know I bought one, but don't know what happened to it. But it doesn't look the library pics of BobbiSue... WISH IT DID!! It's probably a little over 2 ft tall by 3 ft in diameter.
Any ideas?
I'd really appreciate your help.. been looking thru the library, but when you don't know what letter to start with...

|Why do you think it's not Bobby Sue? Do you have pictures of the flowers? Remember that it takes 5 or 6 years for a Hosta to become fully mature and a young plant doesn't look exactly like a mature plant. However, you can probably rule Bobbie Sue either in or out by looking at the flowers. The picture of those flowers on the Library page are pretty distinctive.
|maybe it's Antioch if it start out with yellow edge.

|i thought antioch also.. or one of the dozen other versions with names ..
bobby sue is tom schmids wife.. a clarence owens plant.. and if i am not mistaken ... fragrant.. and not that steel gray-green ... and i dont think it was ever widely in the trade .. meaning no bigboxstore type thing ...
it sure makes me think a montana/fortunei heritage.. with those long leaves ....
|Could it be Alligator Shoes...is very much like mine?
- Posted by steve_mass 5b (My Page) on Wed, Jul 4, 12 at 10:03
|It's not Alligator Shoes. But the leaf shape is similar so it probably does have some montana in its background.
|Neat Flowers on Bobbie Sue.
|Thanks for your help... I'm going to check the flowers tonight when I get home from work! And, it could be Antioch... that name sounds familiar to me too.
I'd purchased Bobby Sue from a hosta collector in Eau Claire WI. He had a garden walk, hosta sale, 3-4 years ago, and I know I'd purchased Bobby Sue from him. He kinda talked me into it, telling me it was one of his favs.
I'd purchased many from Bentley Gardens on the internet quite a few years ago... probably 30-35... and Antioch could of been on that list too.
I'll check the flowers tonight!

Iran's parliament has voted to expel the British ambassador to the country in retaliation for fresh sanctions imposed over Tehran's nuclear programme.
A majority of 179 legislators voted in favour of reducing diplomatic relations to the junior level of charge d'affaires within two weeks and reducing economic relations with the UK to a minimum, according to a live broadcast on state radio.
"Should Britain cease its hostile approach to Iran, then we can upgrade ties once more."
- Allaeddin Boroujerdi, Iranian legislator
Ali Larijani, the parliamentary speaker, said "this [bill] is only the beginning," the AFP news agency reported.
The bill will now go to Iran's Guardians Council for approval before it takes effect.
Britain, along with the US and Canada, imposed new financial sanctions on Iran earlier this month in an effort to pressure Tehran to halt its suspected nuclear weapons programme.
The sanctions came in response to the International Atomic Energy Agency's (IAEA) latest report on Iran, which highlighted fresh concerns about the possible military dimensions of the country's atomic programme.
Iran had dismissed the UN report and insists its nuclear programme is for entirely peaceful purposes.
On Wednesday, ahead of the vote in Tehran, Britain said "it would be regrettable" if ambassador Dominick Chilcott were to be expelled.
'Lock on the British embassy'
The bill's author, Allaeddin Boroujerdi, who is the head of the parliament's national security and foreign policy commission, said on Sunday: "Should Britain cease its hostile approach to Iran, then we can upgrade ties once more."
Several legislators had wanted to take the bill further, by cutting off all diplomatic relations with the UK.
"We must place a lock on the British embassy and ignore them until they come begging like the Americans," said Mahmoud Ahmadi Bighash
France and other EU nations were expected to unveil more sanctions against Iran at a foreign ministers meeting next Thursday.
Paris has called for a freeze on Iranian central bank assets and an embargo on Iranian oil to be adopted.

Republicans hit obstacles to altering electoral college
WASHINGTON — A concerted Republican effort to alter the balance of power in presidential elections by changing the rules for the electoral college is facing significant hurdles — including from some GOP officials in the affected states.
All but two states currently award electoral votes under a winner-take-all system. Plans to replace that with a proportional system are under consideration in a half-dozen states, including Pennsylvania, Virginia and Michigan.

The folks here at MoM Towers aren't going to win the World Cup anytime soon. Our team, Bitter Bastards FC, are just a few players short of a full squad and therefore wouldn't qualify, so the German team has nothing to be worried about… Yet. We're also not going to win Wimbledon, despite a small subset of us being pretty gosh-darn good at squash (they're basically the same sport, one just has more passive aggressive connotations and a wall). Oscars? Probably not. Grammys? Unlikely. Nobel Peace Prize? Doubtful at best. Medals for making stunning drinks? Now you're talking!
That's right, that little preamble is leading up to us proudly showing off the medals our products scooped up at the prestigious International Wine & Spirits Competition 2014. We're always immensely excited and grateful when the products we make are commended by the highly knowledgeable tasters behind these awarding bodies - it really does mean the world to us.

Attention world!
It's that time of year once again (already?!) when the Master of Malt team are getting ready for yet another action-packed adventure at Fèis Ìle, the epic Islay whisky festival.
As ever, this is good news for you. If you're travelling to the festival yourself then not only will you be able to enjoy the wonderful company of Ben, myself and Alexandra at all of the distillery days, but there's also a chance to get your hands on some FREE 'stuff'!

naming after a grandmother
|Fri, 08-17-2012 - 4:31pm
we don't know the gender yet, but DH's grandmother (still alive, but advanced alzheimer's) is Arlene. we don't love the name as it stands... anyone have any creative and cute versions on arlene we could consider if our LO turns out to be a girl?
|Sat, 08-18-2012 - 12:26am
I like Arya (cool character in Game of Thrones)or Aria. Arliss, Arden, Arwen or Arly. I'd also consider Marley and Marlowe, myself because I still see the strong "Arl" sound- I am abstact, though, so it may not work for you if you are more concrete about things.Let us know what you are thinking!
|Mon, 08-20-2012 - 9:49am
we actually have aria on our list but i didn't even make the connection with arlene. cute! our last name has an r in it and it gets to be a little r-heavy, though. but i like arden, and the more pronounced second syllable helps separate the r sounds. i'll have to add that as a possible middle name if baby turns out to be a girl! thanks!
|Tue, 10-23-2012 - 9:43am
well, it's a boy! so that changes our planning around the names just a bit. DH came up with the idea of Arlen for a middle name, a masculine form of his sweet grandmother's name. timing is interesting and sad, but she just passed away, so i think naming baby after her is even more important now to DH. so we're still deciding on a first name, but middle name will likely be Arlen.

10 am Thursday on 'Focus': Bond ... James Bond ... Turns 60
This week marks the 60th anniversary of the release of Ian Fleming's "Casino Royale" that introduced the world to the now infamous mystery man, James Bond. This hour on Focus, we'll talk with Michael VanBlaricum, a UIUC alumnus and co-founder of the Ian Fleming Foundation, about Bond's legacy. John Cork, another co-founder of the foundation and a documentary film maker known for his knowledge of the character, also joins us.
VanBlaricum is also an avid Bond memorabilia collector and is donating a large collection of materials for research purposes to the University, making the Midwest an unlikely hotspot for Bond research. There are several events taking place next weekend in Urbana on campus. Find more information here.

The liar vs. the victim
Wednesday, the best soap opera on TV won't be the Bold and Beautiful or the Young and the Restless. It'll be the The Liar Vs. The Victim.
Who's the liar? Is it pitching legend Roger Clemens, who swears, swears, swears he did not let trainer Brian McNamee inject his butt with anything but vitamins (I take mine with a glass of water). Or is it McNamee, who swears, swears, swears, the Rocket refueled with 'roids and HGH.
One is lying. One is not. Both cannot be telling the truth.
And that makes for riveting TV. I'm not sure WHY Congress has to get to the bottom of this (there is an endless war going on, plus gas prices cost an arm, leg and ear, and a recession is around the corner), but it sure makes for great viewing.
Someone will either commit perjury on Wednesday or take the fifth, which will amount to an admission of guilt.
Yes, I believe Clemens is guilty, and I think it's a darn shame. Why can't these athletes go quietly into the night when their career is on the downside, instead of trying to reinvent the 40s? People are very eager to believe what they want to believe, of course, and many people don't like Clemens. I'm sure if the same charges were leveled against Cal Ripken Jr., a lot more people would be saying "That's a crock." With Clemens and Barry (Bail) Bonds, they want to believe it.
It's nothing I'll be pulling up my 2-year-old son's Elmo chair alongside mine, but I will watch with great interest.
Someone is a liar. And someone is a victim.
Watch, and tell me what YOU think.

Direct Entry MSN Programs 2013 - page 59
Anyone on here applying to direct entry MSN programs that begin in summer or fall of 2013? I think I have finalized my list of programs to apply to, and I am beginning to get everything together to start applying this... Read More

- 0Feb 20, '13 by whatatreat86I'm so happy that everyone is starting to hear back from schools! Does anyone know what's going on with UMass Worcester (Medical School)? I know they're on rolling admissions, so maybe the class is already full? But I have no clue since I haven't heard anything at all from them...
- 1Feb 20, '13 by blizz108Some people have heard from UMass (I haven't yet). Search the site for Pro Con UMass Worcester. There is a pretty good thread there with information.
I got an acceptance to Simmons on Saturday so I'm pretty happy about that!
- 1Feb 20, '13 by ktbelleHello!
I've been reading this blog for a while, but have never posted. I am currently trying to make a decision about whether or not I am going to put down a deposit at Simmons. (I am waiting for other schools, but they won't notify me until after the deposit at Simmons is due)
I have been waitlisted for FNP at BC and am waiting to hear from Johns Hopkins, Northeastern, and several second degree BSN programs.
I am struggling because I am concerned about Simmons and BC not providing a BSN in their programs. Do any of you have any input regarding whether or not a BSN is necessary once you have a MSN? I have a bachelor of arts degree, but am concerned I will have trouble progressing in my career if I have a MSN but no BSN. What have you all who are considering these programs learned about this?
Thank you for your help!
- 0Feb 20, '13 by bbccktbelle - I don't think most programs provide the BSN - the only one I looked at was, I think, Columbia (I'm going for CNM).
From talking to people who are currently in a program in Chicago / have graduated from it, they say that not having the BSN can be hard to get hired if you're expecting to work part-time while you do the Master's portion. Once you have the MSN / NP licensure, I haven't heard of it mattering. If you're planning to do the MSN full time immediately after the BSN, I wouldn't think that would be too much of a problem - but a lot of people tell me that doing an accelerated BSN then a Master's doesn't take that much more time than doing a combined program, so maybe that's the best route for you!
- 0Feb 20, '13 by joellieeeeSo I was too excited to wait until Vanderbilt's Open House next weekend to meet everyone so I started a Facebook group for those who were already accepted for this upcoming Fall 2013! (Search: Vanderbilt School of Nursing - Accepted Fall 2013)Last edit by dianah on Feb 21, '13 : Reason: Terms of Service re: posting links to social networking sites
- 0Feb 20, '13 by britters5For those who have been accepted , congrats! Where are you thinking of going?? I'm personally torn between Mgh and Vanderbilt 😣
Love that Vanderbilt offers distance learning in your specialty year, It's 2 years, and ranked number 16 for nursing schools.
MGH affiliation with partners is in itself invaluable and I've heard clinicals are great. It's a bummer it's 3 years when Vandy is 2, though having summers off to work could be a good thing. Wonder if they allow you to take the 6 semesters consecutively , including summer semesters?
Anyone know how the full program prices of these 2 schools compare with one another?
Decisions, decisions.

[...] wrote an interesting post today on Discover Tiger Woods Golf Workout SecretsHere's a quick [...]
Many golfers would love to know what Tiger does in his golf workouts to dominate the tour. Do you want to know? If you've been like the majority of golfing fans, you've seen Tigers body metamorphicize. He has put on something like 30 pounds of muscle since came on tour 10 years ago.
I know some of you might blow it off to his youth, but his dedication to his fitness should be admired and emulated by any golfer who wants to improve their golf swing and game. It's no secret most of the tour players are working out to be competitive, but Tiger has taken that to another level.
I know very confidently he is not doing anything you couldn't do as training for golf is not a mystery, but in the same breadth I will say there are many illegitimate so-called golf workout programs, so you do need to do some research.
A friend of mine has put together a fantastic resource for Tiger Woods Workout.What do you think? 10 Comments »

I think this is a great article but what if I don't have that much time to spend on working out? What kind of exercises would help the average Joe?
October 1st, 2007 at 2:20 pm
There's no one resource for short workouts unfortunately! My golf fitness dvds can be done in 40-50 minutes, and they incorporate both stretching and strength training.
October 2nd, 2007 at 3:51 am
Its interesting that Tiger Woods has never been fitter (in particular larger) and it does not relate to longer driving distance.
Tigers total driving distance against the rest of the players is suffering even though he is bigger and stronger.
His current rank in distance is 11th and that is the lowest he has been in eleven years on Tour.
If i was an expert i would be suggesting he is on the verge of lost flexibility with his larger body frame. (Gee he looks good though)
October 2nd, 2007 at 4:30 am
You couldn't be farther from the truth! Tiger is putting more effort into hitting fairways than hitting longer drives. He has proven that when he wants to kill one he can do it better than anyone on tour.
There have been par 5′s on tour where he was the ONLY player to reach the green in two!
Tiger knows he needs to hit fairways, and when he does he can't be beat! I appreciate your input, but when making assessments, you need to look at the whole picture with any golfer.
I can bet you that his fairways hit has gone way up the last part of the season. Hitting it long and in the fairway is a brutal advantage for any golfer
October 3rd, 2007 at 4:38 am
Very good point mike, I know his driving distance has gone down in the last few months, but his birdie eagle and fairways hit have all gone up because of this. not to mention tiger has won 4 out of his last 5 starts and and finished second in the other…..
October 3rd, 2007 at 5:03 am
I don't think Tiger really cares to be the longest driver on tour. He cares about winning tournaments. If he wanted to, he could easily be the longest hitter on tour. I don't think he's lost any flexibility at all.

LAKEPORT -- Lakeport's Soper Reese Community Theatre provided a jam-packed venue for this year's Christmas concert of the Lake County Symphony presented by Clear Lake Performing Arts (CLPA). The event took place on Sunday and also featured vocal performances by a number of Lake County artists.
The concert opened with a tongue-in-cheek rendition of the late Burl Ives' hit, "Have a Holly, Jolly Christmas," sung by the Men of Soper Reese: Mike Adams, Wally Fuller, Nick Jeremiah French and Doug Rhoades, backed by Nick Biondo on mini-cymbals and Tom Aiken at the piano.
They were also supported by 5-year-old Taylor Parkinson, granddaughter of symphony conductor John Parkinson. At the song's conclusion she graciously presented each of the singers with a flower bouquet.
The 15 members of the CLPA Youth Orchestra then took the stage, under the direction of Susan Condit. They delivered an impressive presentation of "Believe," the theme from the movie "Polar Express," and a special salute to the holiday season called "December Fanfare," written by contemporary composer Andrew Dabczynski. The piece fused elements of classical music with old-time fiddle playing. The youngsters delivered a highly professional job on both pieces.
The more serious side of the concert then took place, with a symphony string section that included a harpsichord played by Aiken launching into Arcangelo Corelli's classic Christmas Concerto, Op 6, No. 8. I.
At the conclusion of the Corelli work, the balance of the musicians filed in to bring the orchestra up to its full strength of some 65 members, including brass, woodwind and percussion players.
Parkinson then led the group through a series of Christmas favorites including "It's the Most Wonderful Time of the Year," "Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas," "Winter Wonderland" and others, ending with the familiar strains of Victor Herbert's "March of the Toys." The performances featured outstanding solo support from Catherine Hall on piccolo and drummer Scott Wise.
During intermission Rhoades assisted Kim DeAlba, representing the CLPA Auxiliary, the fundraising arm of the organization, in auctioning off a hand-decorated violin that was painted by local artist Jay Jackson. Richard Birk submitted the winning bid.
The concert's second half was opened by featured vocalist Shelly Trumbo-Mascari, who delivered jazz versions of Vince Guaraldi's "Christmas Time is Here," "Let it Snow, Let it Snow, Let it Snow" and "Santa Claus is coming to Town." She garnered extended applause.
Showing that music is often a family affair, Trumbo-Mascari's father Walt Trumbo then sang Irving Berlin's "White Christmas," backed by the soaring trumpet of Gary Miller. Trumbo also received enthusiastic audience support when he shifted from baritone to an upper register for a big finish to the traditional Bing Crosby favorite.
Tenor Carl Stewart next delivered a flawless presentation of "O Holy Night." He was followed by Sarah Cunningham singing Mel Torme's "The Christmas Song" and a scat version of "Jingle Bells," where she was expertly backed by her husband Cory Cunningham on trombone, Aiken on piano and David Ferrario on electric bass.
The popular vocal group EarReverence, made up of Bill Bordissso, Valerie Reid, Nick Reid and Bonnie Trumbo (standing in for Carol Cole-Lewis). They were joined by Stewart and led the audience through a medley of sing-along favorites, ending with Leroy Anderson's "Sleigh Ride." During the performance, most of the orchestra members donned traditional Santa hats, except for Parkinson, who sported a fur-trimmed black version labeled "Bah, Humbug."
As has been a tradition almost from the symphony's founding in 1977, the Christmas Celebration finale was the singing of George Handel's "Hallelujah Chorus," this time led by all the singers.
The next performance of the symphony will take place on May 18, when CLPA presents the annual Mother's Day concert. For more information, call 277-7076.

There are "subject" dictionary & encyclopedias for example, reference sets all about history, or law, or fashion etc.
You probably know how helpful something like Wikipedia is, but it is hardly the only game in town! These pages point primarily to the reference materials we have online, but there are many more in our print reference collection. Ask any of us to learn more!

Yes, ladies and gentlemen, it's true. The ModNation track you've been waiting for is finally here. It's got jumps. It's got speed boosts. It's got varied terrain. But it's not just great as a race track. No, it's also a labour of love in homage to one of the greatest video game characters ever made.
If you've listened to TalkRadar UK #41 you'll know who I mean. Yup - Dizzy. The egg. Check it out:
Anyone my age will have grown up playing Dizzy on the Sinclair ZX Spectrum (unless you're American) and the Commodore 64. Or maybe even the NES, Mega Drive or Game Gear. Look - Weirdhenge in 3D! Sad thing is, I know no-one cares.
Above: My Dizzy ModNation track: The epitome of geek awesomeness
Or how about these other references?
Above: The beanstalk and Wizard Zaks' Castle, all handmade
Above: Zooming through the Yolkfolk's treehouse village
Above: No boarding the boat until it's moving!
Wanna play it? Just search for 'Dizzy's Yolkfolk Resort' or 'CatGoneCrazy'. Oh yes, didn't I mention? I made this track. So the headline may be slightly subjective. How will you know if you don't try it? You can also download my other mastertrack - Sheephenge. I don't have a thing for Henges, mind. Or Dizzy. Well, maybe a little soft spot for the gloved one.
Modnation is an amazing game. Probably better than Treasure Island Dizzy. But you can decide that for yourself.
Above: It's amazing what ModNation racers allows you to build
Have you made an amazing homage to your favourite game in ModNation Racers? Let us know in the comments and we'll take a look.

Instead Cups?
Find a Conversation
|Thu, 02-03-2011 - 3:16am
Anyone ever tried these after BD. Of course their website can't say that it would work but is it worth a try?
I accidentally bought some because the drugstore was out of my brand of tampons. They're... not as convenient. lol. Not terrible though. I figured why not.
|Thu, 02-03-2011 - 9:44am
I fretted over it the first cycle, thinking, was I doing it right? and hopeing I wasn't actually blocking the sperm from my cervix. But its really very easy to tell, if you go about your day and not much of anything "comes out" (tmi) then it's doing its job.
The best way I found to use it was, to stay laying in bed and lay there for 10-15mins if you can with things elevated so all the goodies go where they're supposed to, and then put it in while on your back with your feet flat on the bed so you're still elevated. I wore mine for 3-4 hours after with the first cycle but then the second I did almost the full 12 hours they can be in.
Also, this is totally TMI*******but I read if you can manage to have the big O (not ovulation lol) while bd'ing it really opens up your cervix. Alternatively, it can be very hard to O when you're bd'ing for a baby somtimes so you can also do what you need to to O after the cup is in and it does the same thing....just sayin ; )
Good Luck! I feel the cups for sure contributed to my bfp!
|Fri, 02-04-2011 - 2:21am
Oh good! :) Thanks for sharing your experience with it. I just keep thinking that with all the NFP training I have that tells me that sperm can live for up to a few days in the right conditions inside our bodies... why not keep them there longer? I think we'll try that... I"m sure DH will think this is really weird... lol. Also, now that we're all getting shoveled out of this snow I need to make a call (finally) to my midwife group... I don't think they'll tell me anything new but maybe they'd let me try clomid... not sure I want to go there, but maybe.

Hope that it does the trick for you lady!

We did this right before we moved on to IUI. We have severe male factor so needed IUI to get pg. We actually dtd into the cup then put it in. In order for us to feel secure we always do it together then at the last second put it in the cup. Sorry if that was TMI.

This morning Flook became available in the iTunes store. Calling itself the "worlds first location browser" it reminds me of a version of what Socialight was trying to do at one time: use community to enable people to use mobile devices to discover what's interesting or going on "right here." The following discussion from the Flook release explains the service and how it works:
Flook's unique approach combines a web browsing concept with the physical world by allowing users to browse or make "cards" at their current location. Flook learns what the user likes and delivers new findings – without the user needing to search for them. . . The team has been mindful of creating an interface that is user-focused – letting the simplicity of design mask the complexity of the back-end technology.
Within flook, a colorful landscape of robots guides the user to browse or create. One can browse cards that capture what's amazing nearby, including food and drink, local secrets, events, art and more. And when inspired, users can also create their own card to share what they've found . . .
As well as user-generated content, flook's cards are also made from a quickly growing library of external sources, such as event information from Upcoming (upcoming.yahoo.com) and local tweets from Twitter (twitter.com). Sharing via Twitter, adds geo-location and photos to tweets. Facebook integration is coming soon. Browsing the world is now just as easy as swiping through an iPhone's photo library – just flick one card away and another takes its place. If the user likes the look of a card, they can "flip it" to read the comments and view a map, or collect it so that it is easily available later. Cards are simple and quick to make. Users just take a photo (and add some text if desired), place the card, and it's done. The card will automatically be attached to the place where it was made (geo-tagged) and left for others to find.
Essentially then users create and discover Flook "cards," which contain text and images, at specific places. Geotagging is automatic. Users annotate and discuss these places, businesses, points of interest to enable others to discover what's happening "here" or immediately nearby.
Even though the idea of discovering what's going on around me isn't new, this interface and implementation in Flook is very interesting and pretty novel. In our last webcast we discussed what was potentially coming in local beyond "local search." Flook is very creative expression of "local discovery" -- StumbleUpon for the real world. It also uses the camera, location awareness and mobility in pretty compelling ways.
Take a look at the video and you get a better sense of how it looks and works:

I purchased this product for a pep rally themed cookout celebration. I was actually more excited about it than my 13 yr old and his friends but I have no regrets about getting them. His younger cousins between ages 5-10 were in on wearing them. So my only suggestion is that if its not for actual pep rally teens may not be interested.

I love introducing my kids to good music. When I come home and my 7 year-old son is listening to U2, Stevie Ray Vaughn, Dire Straits, Cajun music, or George Strait I am really pleased with myself.
Last night I introduced my oldest daughter and my son to R.E.M. The following song made them cry when I told them to really let it sit with them.
Then we prayed and talked about suffering. Good times.
I have no idea what the horses are about in this video.

'The transition' of The Bureau: making XCOM Declassified a more tactical shooter
by Andrew Yoon, shacknews.com, Jul 17, 2013 5:00AM PDT
With such a tumultuous development, it may be hard to keep track of what The Bureau: XCOM Declassified is. Is it a shooter? Is it a strategy game? While it may look like a third-person shooter, one thing is clear: it is an XCOM game, through and through.
"We're trying to make a more skillful game that requires more than just run and gun," creative director Morgan Gray told us. "You can engage that way very early on when we're attempting what we call 'the transition.' Not long, probably after in your first night's play session, that play style is going to become less and less effective to a point in time where you will not be able to get far in the game trying to be a Rambo."
The Bureau translates XCOM's defining features for the third-person shooter. Crucially, it conveys the notion of consequence. Like Enemy Unknown, The Bureau features perma-death and a limited number of soldiers that can be deployed. That gives added weight to every encounter in the game, as a single poorly managed battle could deprive you of a crucial resource you'll need for the rest of the game. "It's pretty different for a third-person cover squad shooter," Gray explained. "Generally, the repercussions of any individual fight don't permeate beyond that moment in time in a level."
Like in Firaxis' strategy game, it will be entirely possible to dwindle your roster to the point where the game is, essentially, unbeatable. "We do know that there is a possibility in our game where you can get to the final battles, you have exhausted your supply of credible agents, and the game isn't explicit, I'm sure some players that get in that unfortunate position will go 'I think I have lost this game because I can't beat this level now.' And there's no safety net," Gray said.
"You can potentially get to the end and you won't have what it takes to finish the game." The dreadful sense that you have been defeated should be all-too-familiar for players that enjoyed XCOM's punishing difficulty.
In our previous hands-on with the game, we noted the game's similarities to Mass Effect, given the game's three-man squads and use of a radial wheel to command AI characters to use powers. However, Gray argues that XCOM is far more tactical than BioWare's RPG. "Mass Effect was certainly an influence. But a big difference is that Mass Effect doesn't have a lot of gameplay based on position and tactics. You go to the radial wheel to fire off powers, but it doesn't really matter where Garrus or Wrex is. In our game, position is extremely important," he pointed out.
In Mass Effect, it's entirely possible to beat the game simply shooting your way through. In The Bureau, the opposite is true. Commanding your squad is so crucial to the gameplay, it's theoretically possible to play the game as "the conductor"--the type of player that exclusively uses tactics to overcome each excursion.
"We had this debate for a while. Can you beat the game without ever firing a shot," Morgan said. "We decided if the player obscenely uses tactics and his agents, there should be the possibility that you can beat certain fights without personally firing a shot. We are open to the fact that some players can play 'the conductor' role, and we should reward them. If your plan is that good, awesome."

I have a job.
I work, they pay me.
I pay my taxes & the government
Distributes my taxes as it sees fit.
In order to get that paycheck, in my case,
I am required to pass a random urine test
(with which I have no problem).
What I do have a problem with is the distribution of my taxes
To people who don't have to pass a urine test.
So, here is my question:
Shouldn't one have to pass a urine test to get a welfare check
Because I have to pass one to earn it for them?
Please understand, I have no problem with helping people get back on their
I do, on the other hand, have a problem with helping someone sitting on their
BUTT—-doing drugs while I work.
Can you imagine how much money each state would save
If people had to pass a urine test to get a public assistance check?
I guess we could call the program"URINE OR YOU'RE OUT"!
P.S. Just a thought, all politicians should have to pass a urine test too!…
They should also have to pass an intelligence test, a common sense test and
an understanding the constitution test, as well!!!
Remember November is coming
(from my friend, Denise)

XXX Porn Parodies – 10 You Probably Never Knew Existed

Superheroes and sex make sense but the following ten porn parodies have us scratching our heads... no, not those heads.
I figure it's Thanksgiving and you're too full to get off the couch so you'll probably watch some TV, right?
With the Halloween season quickly approaching, it's time to start thinking about what you want to do when All Hallows Eve gets here. Regardless of age, there's something for everyone around the Abilene area, making Halloween one of the most active holidays.
Man, this movie makes for a good teaser headline. You have to admit that "Puss in Boots" was one of the highlights of the Shrek movies. Check out the trailer after the jump.
As expected, 'Green Lantern' was the number one movie at the box office this weekend, taking in a slightly underwhelming $52.7 million, according to weekend estimates.
That number marks the lowest opening for a superhero movie this summer, behind 'Thor' ($66 million) 'X-Men: First Class' ($56 million).
While summer doesn't officially start until June 21, Memorial Day marks the unofficial beginning to the hottest season at the movies.
Summer loses some of its meaning when you're an adult, since it no longer comes with a moths-long break from the grind.
Nevertheless, we can all still enjoy a good movie about summer vacations. After the jump, check out eight of our favorites.
Often a character in a movie will be made an accountant to indicate that they're . . . well . . . boring.
But being a movie, this boring accountant has to be put in an interesting situation or nobody is going to want to pay ten bucks to see it.
So, in fact, many celluloid accountants turn out to be interesting and dynamic characters, rather than just soul-less bean counters.
We've compiled a list of five famous movie accountants in honor of tax season, which is also the season of the accountant.

Milk thistle is a plant that contains silymarin, a substance that improves liver function. Originally from Europe, milk thistle now also grows in the United States.
You can take milk thistle in capsules or as a tincture (combined with alcohol). It has been widely used in Europe and Germany, where it is a common complementary treatment for liver problems such as hepatitis and cirrhosis. In the United States, it is sold as a dietary supplement.
People use milk thistle as a complementary treatment for liver problems, particularly hepatitis and cirrhosis and inflammation of the bile ducts (cholangitis). Research on silymarin suggests that it may protect the liver from inflammation. But it does not have a direct effect on viruses that cause hepatitis, such as the hepatitis C virus.1
Preliminary research suggests that silymarin is an antioxidant, which helps protect the body from cell-destroying substances called free radicals. Silymarin also may reduce inflammation and block the effects of toxins that harm the liver.2
Two studies on milk thistle presented conflicting results. One study found that milk thistle appeared to help some people with cirrhosis live longer than they would have otherwise, while another found no benefit.2
No negative side effects have been reported from milk thistle.1
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) does not regulate dietary supplements in the same way it regulates medicines. A dietary supplement can be sold with limited or no research on how well it works.
Always tell your doctor if you are using a dietary supplement or if you are thinking about combining a dietary supplement with your conventional medical treatment. It may not be safe to forgo your conventional medical treatment and rely only on a dietary supplement. This is especially important for women who are pregnant or breast-feeding.
When using dietary supplements, keep in mind the following:
