Cursery: The Crooked Man and the Crooked Cat Collector's Edition
Crooked Man Is A Straight Up Fantastic Game!
If you are a fan of the Dark Parables (who isn't?) series then you are in for a huge treat. Quite simply this is a very entertaining game with all the bells and whistles you could ask for. I knew right from the introduction this was going to be a fantastic game, the quality of the trailer was stunningly crisp HD quality, and what a story! A young Nobel fell in love with a common young girl who died suddenly leaving the Nobel empty and heartbroken! He believed the woman would eventually be reincarnated thus he kidnapped young women in his never ending quest to find her. In typical Dark Parable style the HOS are fragments that you find piece by piece until a complete item has been found, and it's not as easy as it sounds. There are 20 morphing or beyond objects to find, 14 pop up notes and 25 achievements to earn as well. Most of the mini games are new! To be honest, some of the games are frustrating but doable such as switching tiles with a certain number of items shown to their matching roman numerals but they can only be switched with certain highlighted tiles. Another game requires you to slide tiles around until the match the zodiac picture then a pattern appears and you need to click on the same symbols in the order that was shown briefly. There are a ton of mini games but not a whole lot of HOS which may disappoint some, however there are a lot of activities in every scene and there are a lot of out of the ordinary solutions which make this game a little more challenging. In conclusion I am purchasing this game and I bet you will want to do the same, enjoy!

Another amazing Blue Tea Fairy Tale!
Blue Tea is well known as the creator of Dark Parables. This game is like a Spin-Off of the series, because there was a hint for this story in Dark Parables 5. So you can expect another high quality game!
The storyline is another Fairy Tale. A noble fell in love with a woman. Then she died, before they could get married and now the noble wants to return his love from the death and kidnappes maidens for that. Can you save the innocent womans, before it's to late? The characters in this Story are drawn and good done again. They have voice overs, which are clearly understandable and have not much spelling errors, as far as I could see.
The graphics are simply amazing. Blue Tea makes the best Fairy Tale theme graphics. Every Scene has so many, beautiful details and an amazing, deep atmosphere. In this game most of the graphics are a bit darker than in the other Blue Tea Games, but they just fit into the game. The soundtrack is lovely too and I love it. It really fits together with the graphics to give this game a great "feeling", while you play.
The Level of challenge is very nice here too. There are FROG's, like you know them from Dark Parables. The fragments are hidden well, so you have to look closely to find them all. I really like the FROG's.
Now to a big surprise for me. In the other BTG there were only a few mini-games, but in this game there are so many mini games and puzzles. And most of the puzzles are not very easy to solve. Some are quite a challenge. The developners did a great job here!
The CE comes with the usual extras. I think everyone knows them. Afterall I have to say that this game combines the old BTG standart with darker graphics and many different mini-games. For me another five star game and a worthly CE. Keep up the good work BTG for Dark Parables: Jack and the Sky Kingdom CE.

Fairy Tales For Adults
The Dark Parable series have always been amongst my favorites and now from their creators, we have Cursery: The Crooked Man. I remember the nursery rhyme from my childhood, it began with: there once was a crooked man who walked a crooked mile...... I always wondered what a crooked man would look like.
Our dark tale begins with the abduction of a young girl. It appears that for more than a century, girls of a certain age have been mysteriously vanishing, never to be seen again. Rumor has it that they were taken by the Crooked Man, who always travels with a strange little black cat at his side. According to the story, he takes the girls who resemble his dead fianc� which tells us he is a serial abductor. Now he?s kidnapped your very own sister and your mission begins by solving the riddles in the Cursery and finding out who?s really is the mastermind behind this whole evil plot.
This is a beautiful game with stunning graphics and artwork. Most of the scenes are dark but sharp with haunting music in the background and ambient sounds that bring the game alive. I know I was complaining about Fairy tales and cute creatures, but really there isn't anything cute about the creatures here.
Main Menu offers you three levels of difficulty to choose from. You have a map that will allow you to jump as well as indicate areas of interest. We actually have a very entertaining HOPA game with Fragmented Object scenes. Actually as I have only played the demo trial, I only came across one scene and it was fragmented. The game is riddle with puzzles and mini-games that not only are well executed, but some are a delight to play. I simply loved the three blind mice game that I cam across the first chapter.
As for extras, there are plenty of them to make this game well worth the extra pennies. You have morphing objects to locate, popup notes to collect and achievements to earn along the way. Also the bonus game offers you another story of Humpty Dumpty and who doesnt love Humpty?
Its dark, it?s a bit disturbing but also beautiful to look at. Although the black bar hints are a bit too much, I hardly noticed them. I think Cursery will be a hit and I expect other famous characters will be coming our way soon enough. KUDOS to the Tea drinking Group for this new series.
Have a great week-end with this one!

Awesome game Blue Tea!
"There was a crooked man, and he walked a crooked mile,
He found a crooked sixpence against a crooked stile;
He bought a crooked cat which caught a crooked mouse,
And they all lived together in a little crooked house."
Well leave it up to the good peeps at Blue Tea to take this little" nursery rhyme and put an awesome twist on it in this exceptional game. I am a huge catlover, and that bad cat is right up my 'alley'. The VO's are done exceptionally well. No need for subtitles.
Story: According to Marianne the dude with the cat lost his fiance and so now he kidnaps young fair maidens in hopes to get one close to his fiance. Unfortunately your poor sister got tangled up in the mess. Now it's up to you to not only save your sis, but all the ladies he captured as well. She will be one busy Missy.
Graphics: Absolutely gorgeous. I love to stop and look before continuing on.
Music: Beautiful done and fits great with the game.
Mini games: Fun! Not to hard or easy for me, just right.
Hint System: Works outside of the H0GS as well as the H0GS.
Map: Jump map to make your travels a little easier.
I definitely rate this a 10 no question. Awesome game and kudos to the team!

Blue Tea Games Are Great!
Hats off once again to Blue Tea Games! The graphics are outstanding as usual, sound effects and background music are perfect to the story and this game holds your interest. HOS is challenging enough and the mini games are fun. I love to see morphing cursed objects and in this game you collect 20 of them. There are achievements to be earned and the cut scenes are done very well. It has an interactive map to jump around from scene to scene. This one will definitely be on my list of CE's to purchase when there is a good sale!
November 9, 2013
Great game, don't buy the CE though
I loved the Dark Parables series. I was thrilled that they started a new series. I actually think that the crooked man is better than anything done before.
EXCEPT the CE bonus game does not pay to buy. They only use 2 different types of puzzles in the bonus and it's really irritating. They could have fleshed out the bonus into its own game, and I wish they had.
But the main game? Nothing bad to say at all.
The SE is more than sufficient. Save your money.

It's all in the storyline
When I learned it was a BlueTea game I felt certain it would be a good one given the quality of the Dark Parable entries that preceded Cursory. Now that there are thousands of HO games and FROGs ( and this is of that ilk ), the player encounters the same old same old tasks. Find the feather, glove, etc. in HO scenes. Use the key to unlock the mansion gate and so on and so on. For me what now makes a new game attractive is the storyline. Cursory does not break new ground here. A man loses his beloved and his unrequited love drives him insane to the point that he kidnaps young women to find a suitable lady to replace that whom he lost.
As the game progresses A( have only completed the hour trial ) the player completes FROG scenes ( 2 in the demo )
and solves many puzzles. It appears that Cursory will have more puzzles than FROG scenes. This dev always creates stunningly beautiful games and Cursory should be a fine addition to its collection. I realize there have been an abundance of fantasy games in recent weeks and this trend has left a bit of a sour taste for a percentage of players, myself included. Cursory, although a fantasy game, does not continue the trend in that it is of the highest quality. What with the Veterans Day sale, Cursory will be an addition to my repertoire of games. Thanks to BlueTea for another excellent FROG. As always, try the game and judge for yourself.

CURSERY - you caught my heart!
I just finished the main game and the bonus chapters.
That took me more than 8 hours and I enjoy these hours!
And now I just want to play it again as I found there's "easter egg" haven't been revealed.
Gorgeous graphics as usual!
Dark gothic, not much horror but magnificent enough to take your breath away!
Perfectly match with the music / ambiance sounds, everything looks alive in the game.
Especially I love the music in the game.
The main theme, the waltz, the character theme music...etc. all of these are beautiful and touching. It's like movie soundtrack music and all in high quality.
To be honest, I seldom download the music from a game even they are available in the bonus content in a game.
But I downloaded them all from CURSERY in my playlist!
There's a lot of mini games and a few FROG (compare with the other games made by BLUE TEA).
FROG is okay for me. The are easy and the finished object is exquisite.
It excellent for me and all the mini game lovers.
These mini games are different from the boring typical puzzle you found in other games. (My favourite one is "3 Blind Mice".)
The game level is not too difficult but quite challenging.
Most of them are easy to understand the control and what you need to do.
I like the instrustion is written in rhyme. I can guess the riddle what should I do in the mini game first (actually most of them are easy).
Even it's really talking in riddle, I can see the real instruction by switching a button.
Story is amazingly attractive!
It's okay if you skip all the words and notes in the game, you can still enjoy the playing time. But if you care the story, you gain extra fun!
It's not only a simple story about a bad guy kidnapped maidens and you need to defeat him.
I thought it's a so-so story, just like a commonplace to be seen in many games.
But I was wrong!
Get into the story by reading the notes or diary you picked in the game, you will know the reason behind the villain. You are going to knowing the whole picture bit by bit, pieces by pieces.
(Sorry, I don't want to spoil too much here. ;) )
I enjoy the experience of exploring the story by myself.
Besides, there's many symbolism used in the game. (A room having many birdcages, the "M" symbol showing everywhere...and I still doubt that the "M" representing Mother Goose, or Marianne, or other things else...).
I would like to play it again and see there's any "hidden message" given by the developer. (Just see in forum, seems the of name of "Housing Company" in bonus chapters is a fun!! :D)
I do hope (Please, BLUE TEA!) and looking forward to see this sequel.
The best game I played recently!
If I could rate more, I would give it 10 stars!
What else could I comment....
Oh, yes, it worths the CE price!!

So good that I beat it in one sitting!
I am a pretty tough reviewer and I say that this one is a gem among HOP games.
The voice acting is very good and the visuals are quite beautiful. The atmosphere that the world places you in is dark and twisted in such a lovely way; you really do feel as though you are in a nursery rhyme gone wrong. I greatly enjoyed just exploring the scenery and admiring the subtle nursery rhyme connections from my childhood.
Good mini games too. A bit of repetition from the technique standpoint, but there are no more than three types of a single puzzle technique and each one is significantly different enough to require a new strategy, so I am happy with that. They got progressively harder in a good way. I was never frustrated by one, though a few of them were doozies!
The storyline is pretty good also. You have your usual maniacal villain who may not always make the most sense because he's messed up in the head, but at least you can follow his backstory and you can actually feel a bit of pity for the Crooked Man and his Crooked Cat once you dig in deep enough. Not a fan of the ending at all, though...
Great work on the map; I love the action indicators. I liked all of the side thoughts also (the text you get when clicking on the environment).
I kept receiving 'achievements' throughout the game, but they seemed to be tied to reaching specific points in the storyline, rather than actually achieving something I put effort into. Also, I couldn't view these achievements (like in a menu) and there was no text explaining what they were when I got them, so that was frustrating. It made me feel like they were worthless and soon I didn't care at all.
I felt similarly regarding the morphing objects. Finding them doesn't grant an achievement, it just makes your Hint gauge rise faster. Well, I couldn't care less about that. I NEVER use hints or skips, so there was no drive for me to invest time in finding those objects.
Overall, though, I greatly enjoyed it and I couldn't put it down, so I finished it all in one sitting! Please bring on many more Cursery games!

New twist on Mother Goose
This review is based on playing the entire game and the bonus chapter. I found this game to be fun and somewhat challenging. The story was a twist on a nursery rhyme that we have all heard more than once. I thought the graphics were good and the music fit with the theme. Although I dont think this game would be appropriate for younger children older ones might enjoy it. I found the mini games mostly easy some slightly challenging but not too much so where I needed to skip them. I almost found all of the cursed objects. The SG was extremely helpful and the hint button was also helpful but the game follows a fairly logical plan so I did not need the hint button very often. There is a map which you can jump to locations and the map is labeled well. I especially liked the underwater areas. Try it you may like it not all games will appeal to everyone but for me this is a purchase I am fond of.

The Conference Board Economics Watch®
US/Global Monthly Series I
Sign In to access this Webcast
The U.S. economy has grown slowly in the last few months as a result of both domestic and global headwinds. The Conference Board Leading Economic Index® (LEI) for the United States increased 0.2 percent in October 2012, following a 0.5 percent rise in September. These levels signal a slow growth trend for the U.S. economy. The six-month growth rate has slowed substantially, but it still remains in growth territory due to positive contributions from the housing and financial components. The Federal Reserve's easing of monetary policy is fueling the rise of the financial components of the index.

Money Quotes, Sayings about wealth
Making money can give you a sense of achievement. But only making a difference will give you a sense of fulfillment.
Money loves hardworking, responsible and enterprising people. Money dislikes lazy, irresponsible and passive people.
– Dr T.P.Chia
Don't spend money before you earn it. Don't spend money on things you don't need.
– Dr T.P.Chia
Most people are losing life making money. Soon they are left with lot of money but no life.
Money makes people smile. Money makes people laugh. Money makes people cry.
– Dr T.P.Chia
The story of money is very funny. Others burn what we earn. Why not give as we live, so the world will cry when we die.
It's great to earn, but don't leave it behind for someone else to burn.
Money & success don't change people; they merely amplify what is already there.
– Will Smith
Too many people spend money they earned to buy things they don't want, to impress people that they don't like.
First, I had time, but no money; then I had money, but no time. Finally, I had time and money, but no health to make use of my wealth.
Trying to be happy by accumulating possessions is like trying to satisfy hunger by taping sandwiches all over your body.
– George Carlin
A good reputation is more valuable than money.

In the 21st century, the world is the body and the money is the blood.
Money doesn't bring happiness, but shopping does.
If you think money is everything, or nothing, either ways you are damn right. It's what you do, with or without money that matters.
You spend your time to make a dime. You lose your health to make your wealth, but at the end it is funny because you leave back all your money.
I love finding money in my clothes. It's like a gift to me from me.
The most powerful words other than I LOVE YOU are "Salary is Credited". :)
Money or wealth gives a sense of security and happy sentiment, but not a long lasting contentment, blissfulness and inner peace.
– Dr T.P.Chia
After you have bought everything what can money bring?
Loved by all, wanted by many, hated by none – Money.

Help Restore the Angeles National Forest
This massive volunteer effort, known as Forest Aid: Angeles, is a follow-up to another post-wildfire project in the San Bernardino National Forest, where volunteers working under a partnership of TreePeople, the San Bernardino National Forest Association and the Forest Service planted nearly 50,000 seedlings during the years 2009 and 2010.
Replanting these mountain forests will protect them from future wildfire destruction and enables them to, once again, function as part of a healthy, natural watershed. With this support from Forest Aid volunteers, the forests will continue to perform their magic:
* Producing oxygen
* Filtering pollutants from the air
* Replenishing groundwater supplies by helping the land absorb and filter rainwater
* Reducing the negative effects of global warming
* Providing a habitat for wildlife
About Forest Aid: Angeles
Forest Aid began as a partnership with The United States Forest Service, the San Bernardino National Forest Association and TreePeople to replant fire-damaged areas of the San Bernardino National Forest, and continues in the Angeles National Forest.This partnership is based on a simple belief: That a single person planting a single tree can help revitalize fire-damaged areas, affect climate change, clean the air, capture rainwater and build a sense of community.
During the 2014 planting season (late February to early April) our goal is to plant 10,000 seedlings of incense cedar (Calocedrus decurrens), sugar pine (Pinus lambertiana), coulter pine (Pinus coulteri), Jeffrey pine (Pinus jeffreyi) and ponderosa pine (Pinus ponderosa).

South Beach Living Fiber Fit Double Chocolate Chunk Cookies come in pre-portioned 100 calorie snack packs, and while I am not a big fan of this snack size (who says snack are supposed to be 100 calories?), I was impressed that they managed to pack 20% of the daily recommendations of fiber into each serving, so I was excited to try it.
When I opened the pack and emptied the contents onto a plate, 6 cookies fell out. They were 6 deliciously sweet and chocolatey cookies, but certainly not enough for a snack by itself. The name says "double chocolate" but it didn't taste any extra chocolatey to me. I also didn't really experience any chocolate chunks - but then again, these were just a little bit bigger than a quarter, and not very thick, so it's hard to distinguish any ingredients. A good use for this, might be coupled with tea (may I suggest Celestial Seasonings Original Indian Spice TeaHouse Chai), or crumbled over some low fat yogurt like Dannon Light n Fit 0% Plus Strawberry Yogurt, and since you wouldn't need more than 2 or 3, it would certainly make this pack last longer.
Each 24 gram pack of South Beach Living Fiber Fit Double Chocolate Chunk Cookies provides 100 calories, 5 grams of total fat including 1.5 grams of saturated fat (both are 8% of the daily value), no trans fat, 4% of the daily value for sodium (85 mg), 1 gram of protein and 17 grams of carbohydrates which includes 20% of the DV for fiber (5 grams) and 5 grams of sugars. There is also 2 grams of sugar alcohols.
The 5.1-ounce box contains 6 individual packs and they are often on sale for about $2.50 or less. Don't think this alone will satisfy your hunger, but by using it creatively and paired with other low calorie products, you can definitely come up with a filling snack. If you have a sweet tooth, then put these in your pantry.

RailRiders WeatherTop
A highly durable, comfortable, pullover that does not restrict arm movements. I wore this piece every day for a 7-day fly fishing excursion in the Amur River Basin of the Khentii Province in Mongolia. It was great in the mid-October cold weather and wind of the Mongolian Steppe and Mongolia Siberia where we ended up. We were fly fishing with large rods and heavy streamers which requires high arm motion double haul casting. The casting motion never felt restricted and kept me comfortable and protected… Full review
RailRiders WeatherTop
This is my preferred outer layer for shoulder season mountain biking. It cuts the wind when I need it to and vents when I want it to. I am never worried about abusing it hitting branches because it's so burly, yet it is light enough that I'm not bothered while wearing it. I love this jacket. I'm a hardcore proponent of windshirts as a layer of just about any system and this is a valuable one in my quiver any time I am doing something that mind find me scraping against branches or other abrasive… Full review
RailRiders WeatherTop
I primarily use this for backcountry skiing. It is great for those early and late season days when it's way too warm to wear your winter coat. This is a remake of an old RailRiders layer brought back with some new improvements. It's a very unique piece, a soft-shell-ish pullover that does a decent job of keeping out water and an excellent job of keeping out wind. I got one for christmas last year and used it sporadically for the rest of the winter. The best use I found for this top is backcountry… Full review
Mammut Prussic Jacket
A super light wind jacket, that packs so small and light, you'll never need to leave it at home. The jacket has been discontinued, but an updated version is available... the Mammut MTR 201 Micro Jacket. Had been looking to upgrade my twelve year old Patagonia Helium windshirt, with something lighter and more packable. Had looked a several, and was trying to make a decision, when I ran across some of these on a clearance rack at my local REI store. After looking at it, and trying it on, I was seduced… Full review
MontBell Tachyon Anorak
Ultra light wind shirt, great protection, folds up tiny, not superb on breathability. Construction: I can be short with this review — The Tachyon anorak is one of the lightest, if not the lightest, wind shirts on the market. A size Large weighs in at 69 grams. It folds up the size of a kiwi. The (very) thin ballistic nylon the Tachyon is made of is very strong. I have worn this for two years, weekly. Not a rip or frayed piece of fabric. Only some discolouration from dirt etc. A friend of… Full review
The North Face Men's Verto Jacket
Surprisingly breathable, durable, water resistant jacket. Have had this piece for a season now and I am thoroughly impressed. It is much more breathable and water resistant than expected. Even held off water in the shower test (other than the seams, which for weight are not sealed) to a surprisingly high degree. It is fairly wind resistant, but not to the extent I thought it might be. Have felt wind when above 20 mph. Not bad, but not its strongest suit. It does make up for it though in how breathable… Full review
Mountain Hardwear Women's Transition Zip T
Stretchy, snug fit, that blocks wind. I really like this jacket. It's my go-to for skinning up trails when I'm working up a sweat, but the wind is too much to go in just a long sleeve shirt. I often throw on another jacket when it is time to go down. The durability and stretchability is great and with that it is becoming a go-to for windier climbing days since my other wind jacket leaves me sopping wet when I start to sweat (that'll be another review). I wish it was a little looser fitting so I… Full review
Sierra Designs Men's Cloud Windshell
The micro-climate, windproof layer of the three-piece Cloud Layering System: This uber-light, three-season wind shirt provides extra comfort for a myriad of activities when the biting wind shows up. Next to your base layer, its breathability keeps you dry and warm while you're active. It's not an insulator when you're resting, but it resists rain. Combined with the Cloud Puffy, it makes for a warm rest or camp down to the low 30's. Its regular fit (some room in the torso and arms) plus technical… Full review
Patagonia Men's First Sun Jacket
The hood covers head, back, and sides of neck for great sun protection, cooler than a hat. I use as a shirt, a bit heavier than some hiking shirts, but the hood is great. Sells as a jacket, so probably want a size smaller, and still get a relaxed fit for venting. Hands can be pulled inside cuffs for sun protection, if not holding something. Hood can be pulled down for more protection or not. Front unzips for venting, though that exposes skin to the sun. Elastic cuffs can be slid up arm to ventilation… Full review

I promise this is the last time I'll use these photos, but aren't they just perfect right now? That series was a balloon being put in front of us and then promptly being popped. Big time. No, I don' t think this all means the season is over or the world is ending or all the cupcake shops across America are closing. I am just not so sure I believe in fairies right now.

I love my dress. It fit perfectly, and I look and feel very sexy in it. I would recommend this dress. I'm 5'4 and 176lbs. This dress hugged my curves in all the right places.
June 18, 2013
beautiful fit, amazing colors, lovely fabric that keeps everything in it's place, and the chevron is really a smart pattern to elongate and slim the waist line, i love it and got soooo many compliments for it, works really nice with flats though i am short 5 2 but i prefer these dresses with flats, nice for many occasions, a day in the city or just a beach run away
May 28, 2013
Elegant and casual
I absolutely love this dress, it fits perfectly! I am 5' 7", weigh 145 lbs and the medium fits like a glove. This particular dress is about 3/4 of an inch shorter than the other (similar) Bebe maxi dresses I purchased in the past month. I actually love that it is just a bit shorter. A perfect choice for a dressy but casual occasion.

Erm. I just stick Sac on a person with Garrote. And then keep consecrate down! Works like a charm.
In other news, this isn't a big deal either way.

That doesn't work for first Gouge, and more than that, that doesn't work with tards who don't understand the "don't clear garrote" thing.

Splug wrote:Berserker Rage has always been able to break gouge/fear. The difficulty was in getting to berserker stance to use it while tanking.
From a pvp perspective, the change is primarily in that warriors will be able to use a stance other than berserker. Battle Stance is actually pretty hot for arms now. Before it wasn't usable unless the other team had no fears, or you knew they were all on cooldown. And even then, losing access to whirlwind hurts damage a lot, and made dealing with the +10% income mandatory.
From a perspective of tanking Moroes...
...Ok, at the risk of sounding condescending: seriously, if you have trouble with Moroes after 3.0, you have bigger things to worry about.
If you have trouble even before 3.0, you have bigger things to worry about..... I didn't even know about buttanking moroes to avoid gouge, I just liked watching some overzealous dpser dying.

yea, I used SoB and a tanking sword to solo tank moroes before. And it broke gouge pretty much every time. Somehow it prolly got patched somewhere, because I haven't seen it work for a long time now.

I probably need a shoe with a little more cushion, with the wear and tear on my body, but otherwise an excellent fit and traction. Also good in the gym for cross training. I think they look pretty good for casual wear as well - pair of jeans or cargo shorts. I would get another pair of these shoes once I wear out the pair I have.

Political parlay?
Brown refuted allegations that the Commerce Department acted for political reasons. He said growers in Florida may have lost $100 million to $150 million last season, with three multi-generational companies closing their doors.
"We cannot sustain an agreement that is tilted very heavily in favor of the import industry," he said.
What's more, Brown called the idea that Mexico grows different type of tomatoes than the U.S. a "crock." "There's a domestic greenhouse industry that grows exactly the same thing the Mexicans grow, and there's a field industry that grows exactly the same thing the Mexicans grow, so there's no difference in the product," he said.
During the 16 years of the suspension, he said the U.S. tomato industry shrank as Mexico's almost doubled.
"Now tell me the suspension agreement is something the domestic industry should want to sustain," he said. "That's why 90% of the domestic industry spoke up and said we can't do this anymore."
The Department of Commerce said 80 U.S. tomato growers representing 90% of U.S. production had no interest in continuing with the suspension agreement, satisfying the 85% threshold for consulting "substantially all" domestic producers.
Jungmeyer said growers and exporters believe the Department of Commerce should review those numbers.
"We believe (claims of 90% support) is not right and they are basing that data on some information from USDA ERS that only includes data from 20 states," he said.
The Commerce Department's preliminary decision notice and the preliminary decision memo are online.

"I like the approach that the professors have. They bring a lot of real-world experience to the table. It's not all textbook. And that, I think, brings a tremendous eye-opening view of the subject matter."
Chris Rice
"I feel the way SNHU is set up, the online program is very organized. The professors are easy to understand, and it's very flexible. You don't have any excuse for not getting a degree."
Joyce Goodale
"I was a bit apprehensive about going to school online, but it's been everything I hoped it would be and more. The communication is much more open, and I'm closer to students now than I would be in the classroom. I've had some of the best professors ever."
James Wilhelm
"The program teaches you current and reliable information that can be utilized in the profession now. It's not outdated information. It astonished me sometimes when in my discussion group, we'd cover an issue that I'd just had at work the previous week."
John "Adam" Link
"For me, getting my MBA is more about the experiences and the interaction and the knowledge gained, and less about the piece of paper that says I've graduated. I get all that and more at SNHU."
Steve Wallace
"The school is very supportive of the military. They're well-versed in the G.I. Bill…It's a flexible schedule, even with an eight-hour time difference."
Scott LeBlanc
"It all started at Southern New Hampshire University. SNHU was the one that opened the doors for me and made three years of my life a marvelous, wonderful, experience."
Maria Antonieta Marcial
"I feel very successful, and it has everything to do with my time at SNHU. Before I started my Master's, I was convinced it was going to be difficult. But in the SNHU classroom, the teachers related to me both on the level of professor and on the level of being a person. I never needed to ask for help. They were always just there, assisting me, so that I might be more successful."

Lexus LS 460 Prices Paid and Buying Experience
engineerkmr Posts: 2George:
Sorry for getting back to you so late.
The options it had were the basic Comfort Package and some other accessories like cargo net, all weather mats etc. I did not want a navigation as you cannot operate or change the destination on it while moving. I heard its a nuisance sometimes.
Hope this helps.
mdxfan3 Posts: 13Car Man Host or Anyone else,
Does anyone have any info as to the arrival date of the 2010 LS460s? Also, has anyone heard if cash back incentives will be offered on remaining 09s again like last year?
I'm looking at buying a remaining 09 versus waiting for a 10 model. Assuming I can get my color choice on a 09, if Lexus offers a $6K rebate again, that might be the way to go as I plan to keep the car at least 6 years.
Any suggestions???

mdxfan3 Posts: 13Renny,
There are no changes that I am aware of for 2010--probably just the usual tweaks. My question is primarily deciding between the 09 and 10 model from a financial standpoint factoring in possible cash back rebates and lower negotiated prices for remaining 09 stock compared with having less depreciation on a 2010 model.
I would also prefer doing something soon which is why I was wondering if anyone heard as to the timing of the 10s arrival. Possibly waiting until October is quite a way off.
So if anyone has heard anything about possible rebates for remaining 09s, the timeframe of the 10s arrival, or a suggestion about going with a discounted 09 versus 10, I'd be very interested to hear your thoughts!

sleeper41 Posts: 5Just picked up the car yesterday at noon. Bought it at Lexus of North Miami Beach, from a good guy I'd recommend highly, Harry Faitelson. I bought it for $350 below dealer invoice, which they showed me and it had all the info ((TDA 796 ?, Whsl Financial Reserve $636) on it, even the dealer Holdback amount ($1,273)! List was $69,090, paid $61,804.50 The deal I negotiated was for actual dealer invoice, when I reviewed the Buyer's Order, I noted the $699 Pre-Delivery Service Fee. I told them this was a deal breaker and to forget it. They told me it was cast in stone. I walked. The called back and said they would split it, hence the price.

I am willing to fly and drive back for the right deal. I am in southern california and have already sent an e-mail to sacramento Lexus. Ideally, I would like to be in the $50-58k range and must have a 460L.
thanks -
gregandem Posts: 1Was in the dealer today and they are trying to get me to trade my '08 LS in four months earlier and lease a '10 because the residual rates are "high" and the money factor is "low". classic! Car_Man, do you have the actual residuals and money factors for Lexus in Dec? they say it's for "December to Remember". I'm in Dallas. Would be for LS with Nav and Comfort package. Thanks!
thbell Posts: 15Car Man: I am placing a special order for a 2012 Lexus 460L AWD with several optional packages, which will take 3-4 months for delivery. The car with my options currently has a factory invoice of $77,446 and a MSRP of $84,100 according to the Edmunds website. The dealer has offered a selling price for the car of $2,500 over factory invoice (whatever that ends up being at the time, which the dealer will show me). Any reaction to the fairness of that price?
Many thanks.

HP CEO Meg Whitman said Tuesday that the company complained of gross deception to the Securities and Exchange Commission and the UK's Serious Fraud Office after a seven-month internal probe of Autonomy's financials.
Bloomberg reports it was told by an unnamed source that the SEC, in turn, called in the FBI to help it prove or disprove HP's allegation of significant and willful accounting irregularities.
Historically FBI agents, who did, after all, manage to get Al Capone sent to prison for tax evasion, had to have either a law or accounting degree and HP did say it was making both criminal and civil complaints.
This can't be pleasant news for Autonomy, the cause of a massive $8.8 non-cash write-off by its acquirer, Hewlett-Packard.

text: Hopefully, you see in these writings a man who is staying The Course and pursuing The Path amidst the pitfalls and selfish ways of being a son of Adam. I pray earnestly that my writing would encourage some of you by showing you that this journey - though arduous and sometimes tragic - is a journey of great satisfaction. A satisfaction greater than our greatest imaginings. The trials and refining fire of tribulation are to be recognized as a small shadow of the suffering of our Savior so that we can rejoice, as Peter and the disciples did, to be counted worthy to suffer for the sake of the Name.

Kids can recreate the Cars 2 spy adventure in all its excitement with this oil rig play set featuring three levels of play.
Material: Plastic
Brand: Mattel
Origin: Imported
Mattel was born in 1945 out of a garage in Southern California. Surprisingly, the first Mattel products were picture frames, but one of Mattel's founders soon started developing dollhouse furniture from picture frame scraps. Encouraged by the success of the dollhouse furniture, Mattel switched their focus to toys. Mattel's popular toy brands, including Barbie, Hot Wheels, Monster High, Polly Pocket, Matchbox, Fijit Friends, and Fisher-Price are constantly bringing joy to kids. Mattel also encourages "play" in a big way — the company believes that playing with toys helps build a strong foundation for learning and nurtures imagination. Over the past 10 years, Mattel and the Mattel Children's Foundation have donated $30 million and more than half a million toys to children's hospitals across the country.
