Milwaukee Brewers 2011 Year In Review DVD Is Awesome
milwaukee brewers April 16th, 2012
The Brewers are 4-6. Last season at this time they were 5-5. They have a -14 run differential and have given up 50 runs. OMG WHAT DOES IT MEAN?! ARE THEY DONEZO!? Let's try not to worry about it because it is ridiculously early to worry about anything and take a trip down memory lane to the 2011 season as we review the Milwaukee Brewers' "The Next Step" DVD.
The 2011 Milwaukee Brewers season was the best, everything about it was the best. I loved the pitching, the hitting and the defense (okay, maybe not the defense.) I loved the coaching (okay, maybe not the coaching either.) I loved Ryan Braun, Prince Fielder, Yo, Axford, Tony Plush, Beast Mode and everything else. 2011 was a year when everything seemed to go right for the Brewers and it truly was a magical regular season. The recently released Brewers DVD "The Next Step" given to fans last Sunday at Miller Park sets out to capture the feeling of last season and does a pretty strong job of it, hitting a lot of the key moments of the season that brought us so much joy a year ago with a cast of talking heads who enjoyed it just as much as we did.

On a recent trip to Trader Joe's, I noticed their line of all natural fruit bars. What caught my eye was that these bars are made by grinding the fruit into a paste and drying into this form that you see. No fillers or anything else has been added. There were some interesting flavors, and unlike fruit leathers and fruit roll ups, these bars have less sugar. I picked the Cape Gooseberry bar to try first because, honestly, this fruit was new to me, and what's the fun of being a food product reviewer if you aren't going to jump at the chance to try new things.
Cape Gooseberry is a naive fruit of South America (check out the Wiki article for more information), and the flavor of the bar was a delicious combination of tangy and slightly sweet. The bar looks like it has lots of tiny seeds but I didn't taste them and they certainly didn't detract from the taste - if anything it added to the natural vibe of the product. I enjoyed this bar immensely and would highly recommend it for a change of pace from syrupy sweet fruit (and fake fruit) bars.
Each 20 gram bar of Trader Joe's All Natural Cape Gooseberry Fruit Bar has 60 calories and 5 grams of sugar, which is less than Stretch Island Fruit Leather and FruitaBu Organic Smooshed Grape Fruit Twirls. There is also 25% of the recommended daily amout for vitamin C and 15% of the RDA for fiber (4 grams). I didn't expect to find fiber and this just cements this as the best fruit bar ever!
I purchased one bar for $0.59 and will definitely go back to buy more. This is probably as close to the natural fruit as I have seen in a bar, and without as much sugar as the others.

Tom Ricketts threatens to take Cubs and go elsewhere
BY GORDON WITTENMYER firstname.lastname@example.com May 1, 2013 2:11PM
Updated: May 1, 2013 10:49PM
Cubs chairman Tom Ricketts was no closer Wednesday to offering a timeline for boosting baseball spending than he was before the home opener three weeks ago – when he said he hadn't "been focusing on that lately."
"We obviously anticipate increasing baseball spending through the revenue that's generated by this proposal," he said after a City Club of Chicago breakfast with local business leaders, during which he outlined a proposal he said the team submitted Wednesday for what promises to be a lengthy approval process.
"I think it's going to come down to when we know what we can do and when we can do it. And then we can start making those plans more specific."
Meanwhile, the baseball has taken a backseat to the full-throttle press to get restrictions eased to allow a slew of revenue-producing renovations to Wrigley, including video board in left field and more outfield advertising – to the point Ricketts even threatened Wednesday to consider moving the team from Wrigley if the team isn't allowed to do what it wants with outfield signage.
The fact is, nobody's going anywhere.
That means the franchise.
And, unfortunately for Theo Epstein's front office, that also means a mid-market baseball budget that was scaled down from its natural big-market strength since the Ricketts family's highly leveraged purchase of the team in the fall of 2009.
New ownership has yet to produce a winning season. And even the prospects for the 2014 turnaround the new front office targeted is looking doubtful with the original five-year timeline for the renovation project no longer firm – much less any of the plan having been formally approved yet.
Even manager Dale Sveum expressed doubt this week about the first phase of the project being done in time – specifically, the new, enlarged clubhouses and workout facilities that were pledged for next Opening Day.
"Obviously, I think we're all interested in the final vote and what's going to happen," Sveum said Monday, "and I'm not going to lie that most of the players are concerned if we're going to get that new clubhouse."
Ricketts offered no assurances Wednesday.
When asked if the five-year plan unveiled at Cubs Convention in January still looked like it would be done on time, assuming approval of this proposal, Ricketts said: "We'll know the timetable better when we get to the end of this process."
And if the timeline is upset, can some of the revenue-generating elements be put near the front of the line to assure more baseball spending sooner?
"Well, it's not as simple as that," Ricketts said. "The work that creates revenue and the work that preserves the park are a lot of times intertwined. Our priority is we want to get the revenue because we need that revenue to compete. But we also have to make sure that as we generate that revenue, we're doing it in a smart way that preserves the park, so we don't have to come back and fix something in 10 years.
"Once, again, when we go through this entire process, we'll know about the timing."
Meanwhile, the debt-related crunch on the baseball end of the operation already has left the front office short in attempts to win posting bids for Asian free agent pitchers Yu Darvish and Hyun-Jin Ryu in the last 18 months and influenced efforts to sign Cuban free agent Yoenis Cespedes – who eventually signed with Oakland.
Ricketts denied that the highest debt load in the majors is the driving force behind the excessive push for the wide-ranging revenue-building plan.
"The fact is it doesn't affect the urgency of this process," he said. "We have to do what we can to generate more revenue for the team. …We're going to have enough resources to be a competitive team on the field going forward. This will help us."
When? Who knows?

Jason Edens received a Lindbergh Grant in 2007 to determine whether it would be economically possible to use solar heat as a long-term solution for public energy assistance in the Midwest. The short answer is, "Yes!"
Five years since he received our grant, Jason's work is continuing and expanding. His solar energy panels have helped hundreds of families. He hopes to eventually bring the technology to such far-away places as Tajikistan, Mongolia and rural Russia.
Excerpt from "Midwest Energy News" Article
Twelve years ago, set out to transform heating and cooling assistance for low-income families into a clean, energy-independent solution. Since then, his organization, the Rural Renewable Energy Alliance (RREAL), has helped hundreds of families install low-cost solar furnaces to help reduce their energy bills.
"Tens of millions of Americans have to make challenging choices between eating and heating every winter," asserts Edens, director and founder of RREAL, a 12-year-old Minnesota-based nonprofit social enterprise that leverages solar technologies to keep struggling families warm in the winter. Over 15 percent of the U.S. population lives at or below the poverty line.

Chas Roy-Chowdhury, ACCA's head of taxation, says: 'The Treasury Select Committee's report raises areas of concern, and also outlines recommendations for future action. Over the last month, ACCA has been concerned about the unintended consequences that have arisen as a result of the Budget – from uncertainty about retrospective tax on stamp duty to the uncertainties of the impact of reducing the 50p tax rate to 45p.
'We would welcome a consultation on retrospective tax policy changes, and also hope that the Government will publish the impact of the 5p cut in the top rate of tax.'
However, ACCA has welcomed the introduction of personal tax statements as a means of offering personal taxpayers clarity about their tax payments and arrangements. Chas Roy-Chowdhury adds: 'A good tax system should be transparent and understandable and tax statements tick both boxes in this respect. But as the Treasury Select Committee says, these need to be well designed with the taxpayer in mind.
'We have seen in this Budget more complexity engineered into the tax system, from the taxation of child benefit, to age allowance curtailment, to the stamp duty anti-avoidance measures.
'We are concerned these complexities have brought about confusion and misunderstandings. The UK's tax system is complicated, and we know that the Treasury Select Committee is working to shine a much needed spotlight onto issues that are confusing. The UK's tax system needs to be fair, transparent, and accountable. We consider this Budget as scoring low in terms of taking forward the simplification agenda.'

Mathematical analysis adds to growing body of work questioning the negative results of a life-detection experiment 36 years ago.
By Irene Klotz
Thu Apr 12, 2012 12:23 PM ET
New analysis of 36-year-old data, resuscitated from printouts, shows NASA found life on Mars, an international team of mathematicians and scientists conclude in a paper published this week.
Further, NASA doesn't need a human expedition to Mars to nail down the claim, neuropharmacologist and biologist Joseph Miller, with the University of Southern California Keck School of Medicine, told Discovery News.

The Cozy Cuddler has a unique design which follows the natural shape of mommy's body from head to toe. One of the big pregnancy pillow upgrades is the shoulder comfort system, unique to Today's Mom. One of the biggest complaints was hard edges which dug into the shoulder while mommy slept and left mommy feeling discomfort. The Cozy Cuddler is a pregnancy pillow which has a curved shaped shoulder support design which contours to the shoulder and provides comfort instead of pain. Another huge feature of this pregnancy body pillow is the lumbar support. It correctly supports mommy's weight while she sleeps. The belly support is another important upgrade mothers demanded. This maternity pillow features a belly support which allows the belly to rest on the support and keep baby comfortable. But perhaps the biggest feature is the large, square resting area. Other versions of maternity body pillow feature a flimsy, oddly shaped area for the head. The Cozy Cuddler has a large square area which is just like a standard pillow to provide comfort.

Hanna Kitchen Storage Cart
Great surprise
Thought this was going to be a bit large for my kitchen, but it fits like a glove and everyone thinks it came with the house and it really added a ton more storage. Almost want to buy a second one as a back up in case anything happens to this one.
Only minor issue is the back isn't as nice as the front. Would have been nice to have more details instead of such a plain back

Love This Kitchen Workstation!!!
This a wonderful piece for a small kitchen. It fit perfectly where I needed it and I LOVE it! Was able to consolidate another cart I had and really open up my kitchen. The assembly instructions were very easy to follow. I would definitely recommend that 2 people put it together. It only took us a couple of hours.
November 27, 2010
Love it!
Fantastic way to expand your counter/kitchen space! It is a perfect fit for our vintage kitchen.
November 23, 2010
After recently downsizing into a much smaller older home I made my purchase. I have been looking for a cart for extra counter space and storage, so happy I made this purchase the stainless top in very durable as is the entire cart. My husband put this together in a few hours. Couldnt be happier.
November 6, 2010
Get this cart!!
We are using this cart as a center island in our kitchen. It is well-made and looks great. The instructions were easy to follow and all of the screws and parts were in the package--we were not missing anything! (When was the last time that happened?)
We are very happy with our purchase of the Hanna Cart.

Great Addition To Our Tiny Kitchen
This was a perfect piece for the new "old" home we just moved into! Stylish and easy to work on! Very simple to put together, less than two hours and a lunch in-between!!!! lol
October 15, 2010
awesome cart
We bought this, with the understanding it would take over 6 hours to put together, it took us about 4 hours, I use it for my children's schoolwork station so that I don't have all their school information scattered across the kitchen, it's contained to include their art supplies. Not what it was intended for but it works well for my needs to declutter the kitchen
October 3, 2010
Love, but smells BAD!
We just received this yesterday and it has been out of its packaging for over 24 hours but it smells awful! It's great looking at a great price in comparison to similar carts from other brands. Has anyone else that owns this had the same issue? It can be smelled from multiple rooms in the house a pretty good distance from the actual cart. I don't know how to describe the smell.....kind of a musty/moth-ball smell, but very strong.

1. Meteorology is the science that deals with the phenomena of the atmosphere, especially weather and weather conditions. Weather is the state of the atmosphere at a particular time and place with respect to heat or cold, wetness or dryness, calm or storm, and clearness or cloudiness.
2. Weather is impacted by things we can't see like wind, solar radiation, humidity and air pressure
3. Weather affects everyone in some way, but it definitely has a big impact on people that works in or with weather conditions. Pilots, construction workers, farmers and bus drivers are all really affected by weather.
4. There is a blanket of air that surrounds the earth that is about 15 miles thick. This blanket is called atmosphere. All of our weather happens in the bottom layer of the atmosphere, called the troposphere, which is six to ten miles thick.
5. All of our weather comes from basically two things: the sun and the moisture in the air. These two work together to form clouds which make rain and thunderstorms. These weather conditions cause winds to blow. The wind blows because air has weight.
6. The sun is the engine that drives the motion of water in our atmosphere. This movement of water is called the water cycle, which is also known as the hydrologic cycle. It involves the continuous circulation of water in the atmosphere through evaporation, transpiration, condensation, precipitation, and runoff.
7. No one is exactly sure why lightning occurs, but scientists believe water droplets and ice particles bang together in the cloud, helping to build up positive and negative electrical charges. Electricity flows between the charges, which results in a flash of electricity known as lightning, which heats the air around it. The heat causes the air to expand with an explosive force, resulting in a loud sonic boom we call thunder. The air in the core of a lightning bolt is heated to as much as 54,000 degrees Fahrenheit. That temperature is about six times hotter than the surface of the sun!
8. People once looked to plants and animals for hints about the weather. Before it rains cows lie down, pine cones open up, frogs croak at a faster pace, ants form a line, and sheep's wool uncurls. Before technology, folks also made forecasts by studying the clouds.
9. A daily weather forecast involves the work of thousands of observers and meteorologists all over the world, and the work of thousands of machines. Modern computers make forecasts more accurate than ever, and weather satellites orbiting the earth take photographs of clouds from space. Weather forecasts made for 12 and 24 hours are typically quite accurate.
10. Many devices help to measure the weather. A thermometer measures temperature, while a barometer measures air pressure. A rain gauge is used to measure precipitation, and
an anemometer measures wind speed. Satellites takes pictures of clouds from space. Radar shows where and how much rain is falling, while computers import and export data for the meteorologists examine.

As the mercurial and punctually-challenged front man Axl Rose of Guns N Roses famously sang on the 1987 classic "Sweet Child of Mine," where do we go now? Well that's the question a lot of business owners are asking after Tuesday's election results. Obamacare, the fiscal cliff, tax reform, the deficit, entitlements, a flood of new regulations, the Big Labor agenda are all front and center on the mind of Georgia's small business owners as we digest the election results.
While Democrats picked up seats in the House and Senate, and President Obama secured a second term, the partisan divide of our federal government remains unchanged with the Democrats controlling the White House and Senate and the GOP maintaining control of the US House. If the last two years are any indication of what to expect for the next two years then please keep your expectations at a minimum. Gridlock has prevented much of anything happening in Congress with both sides having dug in for trench warfare. Will that change? Is small business better off when Congress doesn't act? Let's look at some key issues of importance to the small business sector:
- Front and center is the so-called "Fiscal Cliff" which will have a devastating effect on small business and the economy unless some kind of agreement is reached. Important to small business is the number of tax cuts and exemptions set to expire leading to roughly $500 billion in tax increases, all while our economy wheezes along on life support. Bottom line for small business: legislative action is required to avoid a massive tax increase.
- And on the note of tax increases, how about the record deficit, the fact our budget deficits have eclipsed $1 trillion each year President Obama has been in office and the likelihood that Congress will have to revisit raising the US debt limit? Again. And the cause for concern here for small business is that when the bill comes due, its America's job creators, under the guise of a class warfare "tax the rich" hyperbole will be the ones footing the bill through a myriad of tax increases, most certainly when it comes to personal income rates.
- The oncoming tsunami of regulations – its' happening folks. 4,100 regulations in the pipeline at present with an estimated cost of $500 billion. The EPA alone has over 300 new rules and regulations aimed at the small business sector and energy producers that will add cost and expense at a time the American economy is vulnerable.
- The Big Labor Agenda – Did you know that private sector labor union membership has been on the decline for decades? In a move of desperation, big labor has now for years been pursuing a series of legislative and regulatory changes to make it easier to force unions on small businesses. Having spent, per a recent Wall Street Journal study, $4.4 billion on lobbying and elections over the last 6 years, big labor will no doubt be pursuing an aggressive agenda including things like: card check, ambush elections, family medical leave expansion, mandatory paid sick leave, more increases in the minimum wage, and a host of other anti-small business provisions.
So what happens now? Well the hope from the small business sector is that the Congress will get together with President Obama and come up with a bi-partisan fix to avoid the fiscal cliff that doesn't increase taxes on job creators. We'll see. As for the other items mentioned you can probably look to the next Congress to debate many of these issues and for the Obama Administration to use all of its power to implement what Congress doesn't tackle via executive order or agency rulemaking.
However NFIB will continue to fight against misguided proposals in Congress or from the Administration and the upcoming debates will give small business owners a tremendous platform to tell their stories and educate the voting public on the importance of small business and all the great things America's job creators do for this great country.
Please note this is my first blog entry. I look forward to waxing poetic on both Georgia and national issues of importance to the small business community. Thanks for reading! – Kyle

I do try to pick the cards in the condition that I want, but there are some lots that you can't passed by. In that case I will do upgrades, but I usually gets them in the condition that I like. That is why I usually take over 2 years in completing a set like that. It is worth the time.
(06-19-2012 08:50 AM)jtraven42 Wrote: Hey man! What's gotten me started on my 4 vintage sets is acquiring a big lot at once, then over the years attempting to fill it out. I'd jump on a big lot on ebay to get it kickstarted. I just did a quick search and found a few. As for variations, I wouldn't sweat that until you completed your set. For instance, I'll most likely go after the variations for my 67 and 69 sets, but only after I complete the regular ones. For 59, I think the grey/white back challenge would be too much of a pain Finally, for grading, I've become disenchanted with grading services as of late (big post on that coming one day.) Think about the grade this way: You know what the book value says as a start. Can you clearly see the card in question? Does it look like something you'd like to own? Would you pay what the seller is asking? If you answered yes, buy the card. If you answered no, then wait. Patience is your best bet in acquisitions. It keeps your costs and your blood pressure down.
(06-19-2012 11:56 AM)jtraven42 Wrote: Yup, little moves is the key; unless you see a massively awesome deal. That's how I started on my 67 set. The guy listed the cards as VG condition, ending middle of the week. He had the complete first couple series, about 400 or so cards. I offered him like $300 if he wanted to sell it to me off ebay, but he declined. I wound up winning it for $200, and all the cards look ex/mt or better. Best ebay win of my life.
(06-23-2012 10:03 PM)coimbre 21 Wrote: Great for you on the 67s. I like bargain stories like that. I'm about 320 cards into the set, been working on it very slowly for the past four years, if you don't count the crisp 15 high numbered cards I bought at a show in 1978. About 80% of what I have is NM or better, which is why it's been a slow process, since I seek mostly sharp 67s for as little money as possible.
(06-24-2012 05:26 AM)duck6700j Wrote: We're doing a 57 Graded Set now.Trying to get them as close to center as possible which takes more time but think when it's done it will be a real nice set to have. Plan on doing other vintage sets but will probably do them raw.Leaning towards lots since it would be faster to complete but wouldn't pass up nicer singles at the right price.

Cubs, city to keep talking Tuesday about possible Wrigley deal

The Chicago Cubs agreed to soften their Monday deadline imposed by Chairman Tom Ricketts on getting a deal done to renovate Wrigley Field and will be back at the negotiating table Tuesday.
"The talks on Monday were positive enough that it was worth honoring the mayor's request to stay at the table . . . Beyond [Tuesday], I don't know," a source close to the negotiations said late Monday.
Hanging in the balance: a $300 million renovation of 99-year-old Wrigley Field and the possible loss of another construction season.
Monday's negotiations were an extention of efforts that began two weeks ago aimed at resolving the signage dispute between the Cubs and rooftop club owners that stands in the way of a deal.
Both sides will continue to try hammer out an agreement that would allow the rooftops to survive and thrive and still give the Cubs the advertising revenue they need to renovate the landmark stadium.
If Mayor Rahm Emanuel was discouraged earlier Monday, he was doing a good job of playing hide the ball.
"I did not set the deadline. They did — and they're a party to the conversations. And I believe when all the parties have something to say, they'll say it," the mayor said, noting that it took 18 months for Ricketts to give up his quest for a public subsidy. "There's good progress made to both allow the Cub owners to make the investments . . . that they need to make in their stadium and . . . also make sure that the community around Wrigley . . . sees the type of parking and security that they need for games to also enjoy the community. . . . There will be a time in which the fog will lift in the negotiations and people will see what's in front of them as a victory."
Earlier Monday, Dennis Culloton, a spokesman for Ricketts, said the team was still "talking exclusively" with Chicago and "hoping for a good result."
About Rosemont Mayor Bradley Stephens's offer to give the Cubs 25 acres of free land to build a Wrigley Field replica, Culloton said: "I can't speak for tomorrow," Culloton said.
Stephens said Monday he had no desire to "get in the middle" of the Cubs' negotiations with the city.
"I understand the nostalgia of Wrigley Field and the sentimental value of the ballpark. I'm a baseball fan. They renamed the neighborhood Wrigleyville. I understand all of that stuff. I'm not gonna muddy up that progress, if it's there," Stephens said. "But, if the conversation starts to lead to a non-favorable outcome for both sides — if the Cubs are not gonna get what they want, the neighborhood holds fast to their demands and there's an opportunity for us to make a pitch for Rosemont — that's when I'll make a call to the team and see if there's something for us to talk about."
Stephens touted Rosemont's 3 percent amusement tax, compared to Chicago's 9 percent.
And he noted that the Cubs would have no restrictions on night games, signage and game day street fairs that have cost the team tens of millions of dollars in annual revenue in Chicago.
"The perimeter of the field would front 294 with 250,000 cars of traffic every day. That provides an extra asset to market to potential sponsors," he said.
"The baseball average is 57 night games [per-season]. The Cubs play 30. That's [a revenue loss of] $27 million-a-season or $1 million-per-night game. They could own all the parking in Rosemont. There's a lot of different revenue streams."
Pointing to a story in Monday's Chicago Sun-Times, Stephens said, "The Cubs are not only the most profitable team in baseball. They have one of the highest debt ratios in all of baseball. They've got to pay down that debt."
A top aide to Emanuel has dismissed Rosemont's offer as not serious because of the deafening jet noise that would surround a Wrigley replica in the shadows of O'Hare Airport.
"How can you sing, `Take Me Out to the Ballgame' when you can't even hear yourself think," the Emanuel aide has said.
But Stephens emphasized that most of the takeoffs and landings would be north and south of the proposed stadium site.
"If that's the biggest drawback to the site, then they obviously don't want to come here," he said.
Ricketts has offered to bankroll a $300 million Wrigley renovation without a public subsidy — and build a $200 million hotel development on McDonald's property he purchased across the street from the stadium — if the city lifts restrictions on outfield signs and night games and opens Sheffield for street fairs on game days.
With support from local Ald. Tom Tunney (44th), rooftop clubs that share 17 percent of their revenues with the Cubs have countered with a plan to generate $17.9 million a year to bankroll the stadium renovation by putting seven digital signs on top of their buildings instead of inside the ballpark blocking their views.
Sources said the final deal is certain to include "some signage" inside the ballpark — including a Jumbotron video scoreboard in left field — and "some blockage" of rooftop clubs even after attempts to "minimize" the number of obstructions, sources said.
City Hall sources said Emanuel is also prepared to lift the 30-game-per-season ceiling on the number of night games to the 44 or 45 games, with some of the dates reserved for concerts. Six to 10 3:05 p.m. starts could also be part of the mix.
Wrigleyville residents are likely to get more parking, as Tunney has demanded, to replace the 400 spaces that was supposed to be part of a so-called "triangle building" adjacent to the ballpark that the Cubs have now scrapped in favor of an open-air plaza.

Well kind of! Made it through Hurricane Ernesto luckily....
Hi! We're in Florida too. Near the panhandle, so we didn't even get rain from Ernesto. We could have used it for sure!
Look forward to getting to know you!
Im glad that you made it through Ernesto! Seems Ernesto wasn't very nice up here in the north either as we got 3-4 inches of rain and LOTS of trees down.
Its nice meeting you and very nice to know that our fellow country-men are safe down south!

5 Sugar Free Gum is a product of Wrigley - aren't they like the granddaddy of chewing gum companies?! Anyway, they describe 5 Gum as a, "groundbreaking sugar-free stick gum ... that delivers long-lasting flavor and a unique sensory experience with each flavor." Well, that wasn't my experience with the "Rain" (spearmint) flavor, but I decided to give it another shot and picked up the 5 Solstice Gum.
Solstice is described as "a warm and cool winter." My interpretation of that is basically a slightly sweet peppermint flavor. Because I don't really a full on assault of peppermint in all its glory, this was welcome news to me. The 5 Solstice gum is amazingly juicy, and the minty refreshing flavor lasts for a while (though not as long as Stride). Each long-lasting and satisfying piece of gum provides only 5 calories and 2 grams of sugar alcohols.
The ingredients include sorbitol, gum base, glycerol, mannitol, natural and artificial flavors, and less than 2% of hydrogenated starch hydrolysate, aspartame, acesulfame K, soy lecithin, BHT, and colors, which is pretty much what's found in most sugar-free chewing gums.
I bought a pretty expensive pack of 5 Solstice for $1.89, although I'm sure I probably could find it cheaper, and I would buy this again. Isn't it weird how a brand can have one tasty flavor like this 5 Solstice gum, and yet another flavor can be a dud, like 5 Rain?!

One channel I don't recall seeing on this thread is CNN International. I used to have that when I was on Time Warner Cable - only SD, but it may be in HD by now.
CNN International does have a 720i HD feed, but as far as I know that HD feed is only available on the European ASTRA satellites for distribution on European cable (and satellite) companies. The rest of the world will still have to do with a SD feed only. (The American HD feed for the US version of CNN is available in Asia).
The only problem with CNN International for American viewers is that the American "prime time" block (Anderson Cooper 360, Piers Morgan, etc) is simply simulcasted on CNN International, as that is between 2AM and 5AM GMT. Since there isn't enough viewers in e.g. Europe on that time block, it makes sense to simply broadcast something from a part of the world where people are still awake.
It's nice for the west coast as the actual 6AM GMT broadcast start of CNN International news shows such as World Report would be 10 PM, but for the east coast.... it doesn't matter that much, as between 8PM and 1AM (including a repeat of Wolf Blitzer from earlier in the day) there is little different in the programming on CNN International.
That all said, I don't care if it is SD, I would watch CNN International in SD, and would welcome the addition along with BBC World News.

After reading tons of reviews I decided to order and I am Glad I spent the $. The notebook goes everywhere with me. I like the feel of it. The ability to re-arrange pages as I need is great!. I am going to purchase a bigger set of discs in near future so I can add more to my book. I foresee a leather cover in future as well.

Bookcloth Notebook - Junior
I am a long time user of Levenger Circa, so I was not disappointed with the Junior Notebook. The larger Circas are great, but this is the perfect size to throw in a bag to take to client meetings. With the To-Do pages and Action Method sheets it easy to update projects, tasks, etc and keep them organized. I would LOVE to see a tie-in with Evernote like the Moleskine notebooks do, that would make them perfect for me.

Disapointed with Bookcloth notebook
I was very disappointed with this product. It has a flimsy feeling to it, the top and bottom corners even turn in as though the material used for this product is not sturdy enough. At some point in the future, I will purchase the leather notebook to replace this one, but given how I feel about the book cloth notebook, I'm a bit wary of buying other circa notebook products.

Second Generation
I have just purchased this notebook to replace one identical to it that I have used for my planner for the last two years. Handled dozens of times every single day, it has held up beautifully. I have even been able to get dirty fingerprints cleaned off the black cloth.
August 30, 2014
Love the color and the function!
Got this in purple and absolutely love it. Also love the function with the pen holder and the rubber band to keep everything closed and organized.
August 28, 2014
This is perfect for me! I can keep track of everything! My bills, my work, school! just started jusing this! I dont leave the house without it!
July 29, 2014
best agenda ever
I love this product. I have been using the purple bookcloth letter size as my calendar with the Circa vertical agenda pages for over 3 years now. I love it. It has stood up to daily use but I am ordering a second one to have in reserve in case it gets discontinued and I can't replace it! I also have Circa notebooks in leather and plastic. I'm happy with all but this one is my favorite.
July 16, 2014
Love, Love, Love It!
I am so happy with my Letter size - Circa Bookcloth Notebook. I also have the Journal size but it did not give me the ability to organize all of my projects in one location. With the swithch to the Letter size Notebook I am exceptionally organized. I am able to add documents as needed with the hole punch I purchased. Life is easy...I have all of my business documents and personal documents in one place. Looking forward to a long relationship with Levenger!

Powerful Tool
I bought this Circa Bookcloth Notebook for my daughter who started her first full-time job. She's super organized like me and I know she would appreciate it. Her job entails being on track with her cases and this notebook suits her well.
June 24, 2014
Nice cloth feeling
I have 1 letter and 2 junior size of this product in 3 different colors (I have purple, blue and pink that has been discontinued). I know which notebook they are by the colors and they add some fun, but not too bright for work. Since they are book-cloth, if you spill something it could stain. I have some stains on mine. I like these notebooks since they are a lot nicer than the plastic one, and chapter than leather kind. The colors are nice, and I really like the cloth-feel. They are nice but casual. The elastic is very good to have, and pockets and pen loops are useful. I wish I had a choice to order just outside part notebooks (with some discount). I have bought 3 letter size and 5 junior size Circa all together in the past, and I have so many ruled papers that came with, and I don't really use them. I don't know what to do. They are too nice to use as scratch papers. I am sure some people use them all the time, but I use other specific refills most of the time.

Nine-year-old Oskar Schell is a precocious Francophile who idolizes Stephen Hawking and plays the tambourine extremely well. He's also a boy struggling to come to terms with his father's death in the World Trade Center attacks. As he searches New York City for the lock that fits a mysterious key his father left behind, Oskar discovers much more than he could have imagined.
Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close is a masterfully imagined novel from an author Time hails as "a certified wunderkind".
©2005 Jonathan Safran Foer; (P)2005 Recorded Books, LLC
"Piercing and so funny." (The Bookseller)
"[Oskar's] first-person narration of his journey is arrestingly beautiful, and readers won't soon forget him." (Booklist)
"Jonathan Safran Foer's second novel is everything one hoped it would be: ambitious, pyrotechnic, riddling, and above all...extremely moving. An exceptional achievement." (Salman Rushdie)
"Brilliant....Unafraid to show his traumatized characters' constant groping for emotional catharsis, Foer demonstrates once again that he is one of the few contemporary writers willing to risk sentimentalism in order to address great questions of truth, love, and beauty." (Publishers Weekly)
"Suffused my being..."
By far the best audio book I've experienced thus far. I have not read the print version and so, perhaps, am not prone to the sense of "something missing" in the verbalization of what, I assume, are visual representations in the book. I found the book to be more like a play in that the narrators are more like fantastic "radio" actors. They perfectly evoke their characters without over-emoting.
As for the content of the book, it's breathtaking. My favorite character is the child, Oskar. Here's an example of the warped mirror of dry irony created when a child views the world with intelligent eyes. Oskar's so very active and acute mind is unsullied by adult resignation. That's why he breaks your heart with his unrelenting and purely innocent attempts to understand his unbearable loss. I found myself rooting furiously for success in Oskar's mission, knowing all the while that it was, of course, futile.
The other characters are also very compelling, involved as they are in their own crushing losses, confusions and disappointments. Their tales unfold more subtlely than Oskar's. At their first introductions, I found myself somewhat at sea, not certain as to what was "going on". Have faith, dear listener, because the mosaic becomes a clear picture as time goes by and all the characters become enmeshed in a greater story.
There is much sadness in this book, but it is elevated to a kind of ecstatic melancholy by the objective simplicity of the writing. I found my emotions fully engaged but never manipulated or exploited. I was not depressed by the experience, but exhillerated. And there's a fair amount of redemption at the end of the book.
This book is positively magic, made all the more so by the exquisite performances of the narrators. Can't recommend it highly enough!
"Quirky Quest"
Young Oscar plays the tambourine, wears all white, makes jewelrey and has a googleplex level of intelligence. His father perished on 9/11 and left a key our young hero believes opens the box to a secret message. In the past, Oscar's father set up scavenger hunts around Central Park and told complex tales of wonder. The story isn't so much about the horrific events of that day, as it is about the current quest for meaning on which Oscar embarks. His Grandmother and Grandfather lament on their past with odd, unorthodox, symbolic stories.
The novel is amusing, heartwarming, and quite quirky. The main ideas and characters eventually merge together and the ending was satisfying. I like books such as this one, where the ending isn't as expected yet you felt the journey was worth it. There were many moments where I paused and processed the hidden meanings. Enjoyed this immensely and told my children I loved them.
"Life from the eyes of a child"
Jonathan Safron Foer excels at the audiobook format. The way he writes is meant to be interpreted by a reader like a dramatic script since very often he plays with how the words appear on the page-- repetition, quotations, lists, and more actually work better in the audible format.
Here is a story of a precocious young boy travelling who is on a quest to find the owner of a key he found in his deceased father's closet. His only clue is the word "Black", so he sets out to ask every person surnamed Black in NYC if they know anything about the key. Don't be fooled by the lighthearted plot-- this story is heartwrenching, and it deals with wounds that may not have healed since it is in the aftermath of 9/11. As usual, Foer creates numerous side characters that are as unique as they are loveable, and this alone makes the book worth it.
Nevertheless, I would recommend starting with Foer's other book, Everything is Illuminated, first. This one deals with another heavy subject-- Nazi terror-- but is more hopeful, sweeping, and moving overall.

"Far, far better than the print version"
The people at the post office, grocery store, and library probably think I'm crazy because as I approached the last hour of Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close, I simply couldn't stop listening, but I also couldn't stop crying. Not sobbing hysterically, just tears running down my face continually because of the bare truths made evident in this novel:
~It's always necessary.
Oskar Schell is a nine-year old whose father has been lost in the World Trade Center on 9/11. Oskar is curious, inquisitive, and truthful, characteristics which make his life interesting, difficult, humorous, and painful. ELIC is the story of Oskar's quest to find the lock to match the key he believes his father has left for him. Both his grandfather and grandmother tell their stories in chapters entitled "Why I'm Not Where You Are" and "My Feelings" respectively. As soon as Oskar asked, "Why didn't he say goodbye?" and "Why didn't he say I love you?" I knew I had to finish the book. I have had those same questions, and felt like a nine-year old when trying to answer them. I don't know if answers are forthcoming, but the search for answers is worthwhile and necessary.
I approached this book with a bit of trepidation because I tried to read the print version several years ago and couldn't get past the formatting. This time I listened to it; I don't think I lost anything by not having access to the blank pages, pictures, and words on top of each other in the print version, and gained quite a bit of understanding by simply hearing the book read. This is not a book that I thought would translate well to audio, but for me it was a huge improvement.
"Like one hundred dollars"
This book is told in 3 voices - a boy and his grandmother and grandfather. It describes horrific events, revealing them bit by bit, from different points of view. The horror is interspersed with hilarious moments. It is the first fiction I have been able to read that deals with the aftermath of September 11th in a realistic way. It jumps around in time and viewpoint, but that is part of the magic. Towards the end, I couldn't tear myself away.
"Rare book"
This books is so good that throughout the reading, I wished I had bought the paper version to read so I could savor the writing. It left me thinking, "I wish I could write like that!" The story is original, entertaining, and thought provoking. I have recommended it to everyone I know.
Most of the readers are great. The voice of the main character is delightful, but I found the voice of the grandfather to be slightly irritating and when he read I anxiously waited for the other characters to reappear. Other than that the book struck a perfect note.
Even though the story is engaging, it's not the story, it's the writing which is pitch perfect with each character finely drawn. I was totally absorbed on my commute. I even sat in my car in the parking lot many times to hear just a little more before I went in to work. All of my emotions were at work during this read and I loved it!
"Hard book to review"
I'm torn about this book. Audio books have 3 ingredients--the story, the writing, and the narration. The story in this book is so, so. I'd give it a 3. The narration is by three people, the narration of the boy is a 5 and the other 2 are 3s. The real reason to listen to this book is the writing which is a 5. The writing is unique and thought provoking. If you want a book to listen to while you do something else or to be entertained--this is not the book. This is one of those books that requires a little work on your part to really enjoy it.
I believe a reviewer should finish a book before submitting a review. What do you think?
"Funny Heartbreaking Wonderful Book"
OMG, okay..... I really loved this book. The main character Oskar is part Eloise meets Edgar Mint meets Oscar Wao meets Owen Meaney. I laughed, I cried, I didn't want it to end. What more can one ask of a book?
I haven't seen the movie so I cannot compare, but listen to this wonderfully narrated book, you will be so very glad you did!
"The best performance ever!"
The characters in this story are wonderful. Oscar's observations and storytelling are precious. Did not want this book to end!
"Touching, funny beautifully narrated"
I listened to this while on a recent rod trip and couldn't wait to get back in the car to continue listening. The narration is as good as it gets, and the writing is superb. The book beautifully interweaves the stories of a young boy whose father died in the 9/11 attacks, and the stories of his grandfather, grandmother, father, the people the boy meets, and the boy himself. Foer loves and respects his characters. It is by turns funny and heartwrenching, and always deeply human. I heartily recommend this one.

Sufjan Stevens delighted fans in Athens, Georgia Monday night when his "Surfjohn Stevens Christmas Sing-A-Long" came to town bringing yuletide cheer, inflatable unicorns, a cappella hymns, and his giant "Wheel of Christmas." The show went on for well over two hours and though it consisted mostly of songs and carols from his ten volume Christmas discography, he sprinkled in some fan favorites from Michigan and Illinoise.

I have never been a big fan of Kix cereal. I have no problem believing in the "Mother-Approved" part of their slogan, but the whole "Kid-tested" part is a bit harder to wrap my mind around. All the kids I know like one thing today, and hate it next week - a pretty fickle bunch they are. My taste buds are not too far from a child's when it comes to cereal (I love it!), but, in my opinion, the General Mills produced Kix ceral has always been bland. I do however, like the large serving size of 1.25 cups; so when I discovered Honey Kix, I knew they were a "must-try" item.
The ingredient list is pretty stellar and contains no artificial preservatives or flavors. As you may have guessed, the main component of this simple, yet delicious cereal is whole grain corn.
I paid around $3.00 for a 12oz box of Honey Kix, which contains 10 servings. After one bite, I took back all of the bad things I have ever said about Kix and their lifeless cereal. I then promptly added Honey Kix to my mental grocery list because when this box is gone, I will surely be getting another .
