My mother used to and I had forgotten all about it until Mr Food had his Secret Ingredient Iced Tea today
10 cups water, divided
Follow-Up Postings:
Wonder if that would also work for coffee? |
I've never had it that I know of. Harry's sister makes the best sweet tea I've ever tasted. She doesn't take the credit though. Says it's the Luizanne (sp?) tea bags. She basically makes it like your mother, but without the baking soda or lemon. Now you have me wanting sweet tea! |
I don't drink sweet tea so I guess I don't notice the bitterness in tea. I love iced tea made with China Mist Iced Tea bags. Some are flavored but they are fruity or woodsy and never sweet. The rest of the time I drink black iced tea. Lipton, plain, not even lemon. At home I make my iced tea in a Mr. Coffee iced tea maker. |
I don't like the bitter taste either, but I just make my tea weaker. I brew my tea for ice tea in a measuring cup, fill my glass with ice and water and add the tea to the desired "look". LOL |

Sometimes I do use baking soda in mine. I do not make sweet tea nor use lemon in it. I use Luzianne decaffeinated. Sue |

Never heard of adding baking soda, maybe that is my girlfriend's "secret" sweet tea recipe she got from a man friend of hers. He said his southern grandma had a secret recipe for sweet tea and he let my friend in on it. She is sworn to secrecy. I could never make good iced tea. That is up until a couple weeks ago. On a tea discussion forum I frequent, someone "cold brewed" their ice tea and claimed it tasted as good if not better than hot or sun brewed tea. Fill a glass jar or pitcher with cold water, add a tea bag for every cup of water, place in the fridge for two hours, remove the bags, sweeten to taste and serve. Well, I've made two pitchers of it so far and am very satisfied. It did not get cloudy either. I used four Yorkshire tea bags the first time, the second I felt it needed one more. |

mom used to use cream of tartar in a lot of things like that including tea and lemonade etc. just a pinch. Another really good brand of tea and tea bags besides Luzianne is Community also from Louisiana. |
I could never make decent iced tea until I found and posted the recipe for iced tea syrup. I cut the sugar down to my taste and it's really good and I've been drinking it regularly. |
I add a pinch of sea salt to my coffee, which cuts out the bitter taste. |
I have used it! Just a pinch will do it! |
All the time... |
I make my iced tea similar to schoolhouse. I just fill up my stainless water pitcher with cold water, add 7 teabags and put it in the fridge. Never cloudy, never bitter. I drink mine plain. No sugar, no lemon. |
I like the fact the sugar dissolves easily in hot tea. How do you get it dissolved in cold? I've often found sugar crystals in the bottom of my glass, till I started making the syrup. |
I've thought about doing it, but never have. Will try one of these days. Last week I was drinking iced tea with a dash of OJ and a dash of cranberry juice in the glass for something different. I usually drink plain unsweetened. |
Among our group of friends, I had the reputation for making the best tea ever. I don't bother to mention sweet tea because among my family and friends, there is no other kind. I make tea like my mother did, and never heard of the addition of soda, but that is interesting. My DM always used Lipton loose tea. I did change that to tea bags though. Probably 10-12 years ago I noticed my tea wasn't tasting right. Even my DGD said she had noticed it too. I wrote to Liptons and asked what had happened. They said they had changed the way the tea is harvested, but that would not change the flavor. I asked other people if they had noticed a change; they said yes, they had. Later I contacted Liptons again, and I received a letter saying they had combined their plantations with one (or some, don't remember) and mentioned processes, weather, maybe rain forest, quite in depth etc, ending up with something about a certain kind of frog. Really! If you notice on the Lipton boxes now you will see a little frog! I wish I had kept that letter. I have tried several other brands and always go back to Lipton. I may start looking for the brands mentioned here. Have any of you noticed the little frog? I am a definite T-totaler. Don't like coffee. Wish Liptons had left well enough alone; I just tolerate it now. I will try the soda, though Sue |
I agree that the bitterness comes with the boiling, and not even OVER boiling. I cold brew mine, too, and end up with a flavorful, full-bodied, MILD tea. I've cold brewed mine for many years. I'd advise anyone that does like sweet tea to purchase some extra fine sugar...not powdered sugar, but labeled extra fine. It's used in the same amounts as the regular granulated sugar but dissolves quickly. I use it ALL the time for baking (especially frostings), the hummingbird feeder (no boiling), and iced tea. |
Sun tea??? I made it couple times. Not a tea drinker, prefer water for the past 10 years, but it has to have ice. |

My grandma always made Sun Tea with a ton of sugar in it. It was delicious. I love tea with lemon and sugar but stay away from it for the most part now because I avoid sugar and the sugar substitutes just don't cut it. Now that it's summer, maybe I should do a little experimenting with sun tea and see if I can find a healthier way to make it so that it's still yummy to me. |
TEA should never be boiled. I should be made with BOILING water. Sue |
- Posted by arkansas_girl (My Page) on Thu, Aug 2, 12 at 14:13
That is a LOT of sugar! I use only three tea bag for a 1/2 gallon/2 quart pitcher. It is plenty strong! |
- Posted by schoolhouse (My Page) on Thu, Aug 2, 12 at 17:34
The same guy on the tea forum, when discussing sun tea said he thought it wasn't exactly safe. Something about bacteria being able to grow from the tea sitting outside in the sun for hours. I never thought about bacteria, have made sun tea before and so far haven't gotten sick. I sweeten my tea, hot or cold, by serving, not in the pitcher or pot. The artificial sweeteners are really too sweet for me but if that's all I have on hand I use that. I've never tried honey in iced tea only in brewed hot. Anyone sweeten iced tea with honey? |
You boil water for humming bird feeder to get rid of the chemicals the water treatment people put in the water. I put a pinch of cream of tarter in my coffee this morning after reading this thread and I have been tasting it all day. YUCK..but the coffee was less bitter. |
- Posted by country_bumpkin_al (My Page) on Thu, Aug 2, 12 at 19:42
Yep....I add baking soda to my tea when it's boiling! Never noticed a bitter taste with tea (but use a sprinkle of salt in with the coffee to cut bitterness). The baking soda (I was told...pulls all the strength out of the tea bags (Luzianne) |
Cold brewed tea doesn't need to sit outside in the sun for 5 minutes, lol. (That's all a big myth.) I usually keep mine on the kitchen counter for two or three hours, but it can be done in the fridge. I only sweeten tea that I get in a restaurant...just to cut the bitterness. |
Gave up tea drinking multi years ago. Just give me iced water and I'm a happy camper. |
I'm a coffee drinker myself, or plain cold water. |

"Cold brewed tea doesn't need to sit outside in the sun for 5 minutes, lol. (That's all a big myth.)" Who said anything about cold brewed tea in the sun for 5min? |

Category: 05. E-Commerce
Remarks on Text Typology (Part 1): It's All about Being Effective in Advertising
We have learned that writing Web texts must be based on the needs of the medium and the readers that are addressed. This is what modern text linguistics demands, as well as what usability research insists. From the previous posting we know how Web texts generally should look like in order to meet these requirements; the keys to effective communication through Web texts have been defined as succinctness, 'scannability', and coherence of hypertext nodes. Before I will explain how to meet these criteria when writing Web texts, I will make short statements on both text typology and style on behalf of a complete linguistic discussion of text production issues, starting with a short series of three postings about text typology.

Any Web site, whether a private home page or an e-commerce platform, follows certain plans and motivations that are related to the idea of the whole. Media companies therefore use their Web site to bring the latest news to the public; computer systems companies intend to sell computers and accessories; hobby Web sites try to entertain people with animations, interactive jokes, or games; and publishers of serious content provide concise facts about specific topics. So, information on the Web always serves certain functions and ambitions. For this shall be the context of my concerns, I will make a few remarks on e-commerce in this and the following postings.

What I wore:
Royal blue dress: Coming soon!
Shoes: Coming soon!
Gold Skull Clutch: Coming soon!
Neon yellow belt: Forever 21 (or possible Target)
I can't describe in enough words how excited I get when ever we have a new shipment arrive at our office. The excitement of trying on and styling new items just makes my heart melt. As most of you may now, my husband and I are opening our own on-line store. It's A LOT and when I say A LOT, I mean A LOT of work. Thank you for waiting patiently. We are working really hard so we can make this exactly what we envisioned. Anyway, the dress, shoes, and clutch are new arrivals. I'm loving the color combination, very unexpected but yet it goes together perfectly. I would recommend gold accessories with a look like this.

Walt Whitman US (1819 - 1892) Timeline Secular or Eclectic : Transcendentalist Poems by Walt Whitman Books - Links |
On his return to Brooklyn in the fall of 1848, he founded a "free soil" newspaper, the Brooklyn Freeman, and continued to develop the unique style of poetry that later so astonished Ralph Waldo Emerson. In 1855, Whitman took out a copyright on the first edition of Leaves of Grass, which consisted of twelve untitled poems and a preface. He published the volume himself, and sent a copy to Emerson in July of 1855. Whitman released a second edition of the book in 1856, containing thirty-three poems, a letter from Emerson praising the first edition, and a long open letter by Whitman in response. During his subsequent career, Whitman continued to refine the volume, publishing several more editions of the book.
At the outbreak of the Civil War, Whitman vowed to live a "purged" and "cleansed" life. He wrote freelance journalism and visited the wounded at New York-area hospitals. He then traveled to Washington, D.C. in December 1862 to care for his brother who had been wounded in the war. Overcome by the suffering of the many wounded in Washington, Whitman decided to stay and work in the hospitals. Whitman stayed in the city for eleven years. He took a job as a clerk for the Department of the Interior, which ended when the Secretary of the Interior, James Harlan, discovered that Whitman was the author of Leaves of Grass, which Harlan found offensive. Harlan fired the poet.
Whitman struggled to support himself through most of his life. In Washington he lived on a clerk's salary and modest royalties, and spent any excess money, including gifts from friends, to buy supplies for the patients he nursed. He had also been sending money to his widowed mother and an invalid brother. From time to time writers both in the states and in England sent him "purses" of money so that he could get by.
In the early 1870s, Whitman settled in Camden, where he had come to visit his dying mother at his brother's house. However, after suffering a stroke, Whitman found it impossible to return to Washington. He stayed with his brother until the 1882 publication of Leaves of Grass gave Whitman enough money to buy a home in Camden. In the simple two-story clapboard house, Whitman spent his declining years working on additions and revisions to a new edition of the book and preparing his final volume of poems and prose, Good-Bye, My Fancy (1891). After his death on March 26, 1892, Whitman was buried in a tomb he designed and had built on a lot in Harleigh Cemetery.

Ok, I'm going to hop on the hipster train for this blog post and do a little writing about moustaches (or mustache if you prefer, personally I like throwing the "o" in there so I can pronounce it "moose"stache, but that's just me.) Anyway, I was sent a link by one of our clients in NYC about the Moustache Man. If you live in NYC this may be old news, but for those that live in other locale (like Cincinnati, which has been notoriously dubbed by Mark Twain for being 10 years behind the rest of the world) this may be interesting. The images are from NYC subway ads and have been spotted around the city for about a year. Judging by an interview with the artist, the Moustache Man (aka Moustache Bandit, Madcap Moustache Man, etc) there doesn't seem to be any agenda behind the moustaches, just plain 'ol fun, which I generally support so I'm sharing it with you.
Note the m"U"stache imposters that have also started popping up.
Another noteworthy stache endeavor is the Mustaches for Kids program. No it's not an outreach program that helps poor needy children grow mustaches as one of my friends gullibly believed at one point. Mustaches for Kids is a volunteer-run organization started in Los Angeles in 1999 to do good and have fun by growing Mustaches for children's charities. Typically a bunch of guys will get together and use it as a charitable excuse to grow mustaches for a month. It's good fun to watch them attempt to "out man" their friends, specifically the follicly challenged and it goes to a good cause in the end. If you've got time to kill, check out the rules, kind of funny.
Another charitable mustache cause is Movember. Pretty much the same deal as Mustaches for Kids, but this one happens specifically in November and benefits Prostate Cancer research.
And for good measure I'll end on another fun one. Carstache. Pretty self explanatory.

Bill Clayton recall, Rapid City, South Dakota (2013)
An effort to recall Bill Clayton from his elected position on the city council of Rapid City, South Dakota, was launched in March 2013. The effort, however, fell short of receiving the required number of signatures to trigger a recall election.[1][2]
Reasons for recall
The recall was sparked after Clayton told an African-American television reporter that she should be sent back to Kenya with President Obama. Clayton, who made the comments during a telephone interview, said he did not know the reporter was black. Former city councilman Gary Brown said, "Once you're elected to office you know every newsperson that's out there; you know if they're male, female, tall, short, white, black, Native American, you know. So the excuse that the gentleman said he didn't know that she was African American, I find that very weak."[1] The city attorney launched an investigation into Clayton's remarks, but city council voted unanimously not to take action after the investigation was complete.[3]
Path to the ballot
- See also: Laws governing recall in South Dakota
On July 3 recall supporters admitted in a press release that they had failed to gather the required number of signatures to trigger an election. They had submitted more than 7,000 signatures to local election officials, but approximately 1,700 were rejected because they were collected by paid out-of-state petition gathers; all signatures for South Dakota recall petitions must be gathered by South Dakota residents.[2]
Recall supporters had 60 days to collect approximately 6,200 signatures, representing 15% of Rapid City's registered voters.[1]

BOZEMAN - Montana State senior Jeff Mohl scored a personal-best 5,590 points to win the heptathlon Tuesday at the Montana State Multi-Events Invitational at Bozeman.
Montana junior Austin Emry, the heptathlon leader after day one, ended his competition after six of seven events because of a minor injury.
"After taking some time off (for Christmas break) and then competing yesterday and today at a high level of intensity, Austin's hamstring started bugging him," UM multi-events coach Adam Bork said.
"We decided to have him not run the 1,000 meters so we can start working to get the soreness out, get him healthy and have a good rest of the week of training."
Emry entered Tuesday with an 18-point lead over Mohl following Monday's opening four events. The second day of the heptathlon features the 55-meter hurdles, pole vault and 1,000 meters.
Emry, who hit the third hurdle, held a slim lead through the opening event by running a 7.83 to Mohl's 7.82, but Mohl staked a winning margin in the pole vault.
Mohl, who has a pole vault personal best of 16-4.75, went 15-9. Emry, whose personal best is 15-1, went 14-9, and that 12-inch discrepancy gave Mohl an untouchable 73-point lead going into the 1,000 meters.
Because Emry was 126 points below his score from the same point last month at Eastern Washington, when he scored a school-record 5,623 points, and because he wasn't 100 percent, he and his coaches opted to end his day and limit any potential damage that racing a hard 1,000 meters would have done.
Emry did, however, pace Mohl through the first 400 meters of the 1,000 before pulling out. Mohl came across the line in 2:51.13.
"Austin definitely did some good things in the hurdles, including having a really good start, but in the vault he wasn't running the same. You could tell (his hamstring) was bugging him mentally," Bork said.
"This is only going to make him want to be more ready for his next heptathlon (at Washington State later this month)."
Montana will compete as a full team at the Montana State Dual Meet Invitational in Bozeman on Friday, Jan. 18. Montana's multi-event athletes will tackle the pentathlon and heptathlon Jan. 25-26 at the Washington State Cougar Indoor.

I don't know who here reads the Walking Dead but its one of my favorite modern comic book stories, as well as one of my favorite shows at the moment. Why? Because Kirkman tries to keep things real by having lead characters die quite a bit, which would happen in the type of world they live in. It would be horribly unrealistic if all of the lead characters remained safe in that world and well, the same thing goes for the world of the Saints. They're criminals who break the law and go against other gangs, so there's going to be times when members of the gang are killed and that goes for the core characters. However, there's a chance Gat isn't dead. I don't recall ever seeing his corpse and I wouldn't be surprised to see Gat return in SR4 as some mysterious new leader to a gang going against the Saints. Gat was sick of how things were getting with the Saints, so I wouldn't be surprised if he decided it was time for him to go off on his own and start his own gang. |

1. DLC from the disk which has to be unlocked after paying a fee(Only money thirsty devs do this) 2. Amount of forced missions (Saints row 2 had a skip tutorial function, Saints row 3 has 3 forced missions at the beginning and countless amounts of forced activitites which have no part in the story) 3. Clumsy AI(From most activities and missions) 4. Poorly designed new activities which is either recycled or requires AI to be smart, which is almost never. 5. Crappy, unfunny sex jokes 6. Poorly designed wanted system (Doesn't tell you which gang is after you, how to lose them, how near you are to each star) 7. Gangs never piss off(Even if you take over the damn place) 8. No option to turn off annoying tutorial popups 9. Limited car customization(No decals) 10. Large amount of cars that can't be customized(Unless you use an exploit or mods) 11. No boat, helicopter and plane customization 12. Overpriced, poorly designed DLC(Invincibility and penthouse in particular) 13. Annoying forced homies in missions(Can't dismiss them and you fail everytime they die or are abandoned) 14. Only 29 proper missions(Even GTA4 had 80 something) 15. Crap endings(Killing a shamed luchador boss or saving a couple of annoying NPC's) 16. RPG-styled upgrades(For all those idiot kids, this is a SANDBOX game, not a RPG game) 17. No fun minigames(only those poorly designed activities) 18. Boring free-roam(Like I mentioned in point number 20) 19. Smaller city(Steelport is miniscule compared to stilwater) 20. No air or water traffic(Air and water are completely barren) 21. Little interiors(If you exclude cribs and places that can't be entered without hacks/exploits, no more than 5.) 22. No crib customization(Saints row 2 had it, why not this?) 23. Limited gameplay, all you do is either move, drive, shoot, fly, perform testicular assaults, destroy stuff or hold the action button. 24. Poorly designed missions(Most, if not all require you to protect your b*tchy NPC allies) 25. Small amount of weapons(Saints row 3 has 29 Non DLC weapons, Saints row 2 had 47 Non DLC weapons) 26. Less stores(No food, drink, music, semi broken, jewelry and many other clothing shops) 27. Almost everyone I play with in coop has cheats and no viewer pack(As a non-cheater, this always rustle my jimmies) 28. Can't force someone to revert to non cheat save while playing co-op(The people I play with are mostly don't understand how to use a non cheat save) 29. Poorly designed matchmaking(Even rockstar can quarantine cheaters to match up with cheaters only, why the hell can't volition do it?) 30. @*!%$? mode is boring(Feels like something volition added in the last 5 minutes of the game so they think it's worth the price of this poorly designed game) 31. Johnny Gat dies(The only decent character left in this game) 32. Poorly designed new characters(They're either all generic sterotypes or wimps) 33. Very little characters from previous games and the ones returning in this game are completely different from the last one(Just you, shaundi, pierce, Johnny gat and jane valderama) Edit: 34. Poorly done running, walking and driving animations(You bob your head when you walk and you lean forward and swing your arms in some strange way while running, and you put 1 hand on top of the steering wheel like a typical douchebag.) 35. The exaggeration on how this game is going to be SUPER AWESOME when it's not.(I once heard from an early gameplay video a dev said it's "entirely not scripted" I love to see the look on his face when he sees the amount of scripts there are) 36. Half a**ed dual wielding animations(SMG and pistols share dual wielding animation, and there's a fire rate cap while standing still and dual wielding a SMG fires 2 bullets at once instead of 1 at a time to increase rate of fire wheras the pistol is the opposite) 37. No fun non-DLC weapons(No revolver, sawn off shotgun and many others) 38. No proper multiplayer and splitscreen(I would understand why there's no 8 player multiplayer one, but no splitscreen?) 39. Only 1 control scheme which is poorly designed and can't be edited(Weapon wheel is navigated with the left stick, which is used for movement, so you have to sit like a duck when you pick out your weapons) 40. Un-realistic/cartoony-ness ness of the new cars 41. Only 3 boats and aeroplanes(Previous game had at least 7) 42. Poorly designed tattoos that are uneditable(Less tattoos than saints row 2, and you can't manually place it unlike most modern games) 43. Glitchy DLC that hasn't been fixed and never will(Steelport gangs-decker specialist outfit is completely messed up, Money shot-There's a gap under your neck that can be seen right through and glitchy holster) 44. Glitches that's posted everywhere in the forum and the devs don't give a flying rat's a** about it(The troubleshooting forum) 45. How saints row 3 feels like a crappy spinoff of saints row 2(Saints row 3 is just a mere shadow of saints row 2) 46. Extreme linearity of the story 47. Annoying survival calls that can't be disabled and the noobs always answering it when I'm playing co-op with them 48. How volition's target audience for this game was for 6 year olds(Sex jokes, the fact how people think punching someone in the groin is funny, the immaturity of the characters, how everything was dummed down so much it gives people acrophobia and many more) 49. No proper tutorial(The popups are more annoying than helpful) 50. Proper vehicles from saints row 2 are scrapped and replaced with the cars mentioned in reason number 40 51. Shared wanted level in co-op(While customizing my car I come out to find out I've got max wanted level) 52. Poorly designed co-op (Your buddy doesn't show up in cutscenes, and reasons 27, 28, 47 and 51) 53. How the saints become corporate whores instead of a gang 54. Chore-like challenges(Do this X amount of times) Saints row games played: Saints row 3

I don't get, why everyone is pissed about that Gat died. For me, that allows more things than to keep him alive. For example, we could try to re-animate him during the first act of SR4 (it IS Saints Row, after all). They already showed with "Trouble with Clones", that killing Gat was a good idea. So, I wouldn't be surprised if he came back that way in SR4. Overall, there is only one thing that pisses me of in SR3. Well, two, but the second thing also allows me to do some rather mean and hilarious things. And that one thing is that enemy gangs basicly disappear completely when you take over the entire city. I would understand if they appear less, but not at all is just bad. Same for STAG after finishing the game and for the normal military after "Gang Bang". Basicly, every kind of removal of enemies or other content. (I don't consider the raised bridges as such as for once, they allow Stunt Jumps AND they can be lowered again when you finish "Trouble with Clones"). Second thing would be people using cheats but there, I just open my own phone and spam the cheats "pissoffpigs" and "lolz", give myself invicibilty via upgrades, turn on the DUI-Cheat, maybe force heavy rain as weather and then don't give a damn about anything anymore and just blow stuff up - the other player included. |

1. Gat 'Dying' 2. Short story mode 3. Lack of fun activities like fuzz, Crowd Control and Fight Club. 4. not getting more of the Guardian Angel activity. 5. Having two endings. Don't like having to choose which one to do even if I could go back and do both. Would have just like the Daedalous mission to be part of the game. 6. Shaundi's attitude. It was understandable that she would be angry over Gat's death but overall she was just a money hungry, annoying #%?*!. 7. Not enough clothes and hair options. 8. Can't customize cribs. 9. not being able to go inside buildings. 10. Lack of voices. No black female, no Hispanic male and no Asian anything. |

Retail marketing is more complex than ever before. Budgets remain static, media options have fragmented, data now comes in terabytes and consumer touch points have exploded.
The largest explosion is happening in mobile tablet usage. Marketers are now playing catch up and trying to figure out where to best focus their efforts. How does this affect search? What about location based services? Is the mobile web the answer? What role do apps play?
What's clear is that customers want a great tablet shopping experience, or they will go somewhere else.
Tablet owners are a segment that is widely regarded as the most desireable demographic for marketers. They have higher household income and are often Generation X or Baby Boomers, so they're younger and wealthier than traditional PC users.
Retailers are recognizing the importance of T-commerce, as Tablet users are now some of the most valuable online shoppers. Tablet users spend 54% longer on site than smartphone users and purchase 20% more than desktop users. (source: Adobe Holiday 2011 Study).
If tablet owners are coveted by retailers, iPad owners are their dreams come true! iPads are used by 76.4% of tablet users (source: Emarketer June 2012) but skew higher in household income, so account for a larger percentage of online purchases.
With this new consumer behavior, printed magazines and catalogs have been given a new lease on life in digital format, frequently as apps. The larger screen size of tablets, compared to smartphones, and portability of the tablet means that valuable content can be repurposed and "commerce-enabled" to provide a quality shopping experience.
Publishers of Harper's Bazaar have created a shopable magazine called ShopBazaar and digital catalogs are forecast to grow from 10mm in 2012 to 100mm in 2013, according to Catalog Spree.
New innovations are improving the online tablet shopping experience and reducing the frustrations that used to plague early tablet usage.
For example, shopping baskets now can be 'contained' within the app. This means that your customers don't have to experience the confusing transfer from your app to your web page to shop, and back again. Instead they browse the catalog and add products to the shopping basket in one click. Only when you have finished your app browsing do you check out from your shopping basket at the web site.
A recent iPad app for leading UK retailer Marks & Spencer produced by Group FMG London, found that conversion was dramatically higher as a result of this built-in shopping capability.
The increased interactivity of the tablet is opening up some interesting new opportunities that are perfectly suited to the strengths of this device.
In October, Target launched the "first ever" shopable video called Falling for You, which showcases over 100 products, in a reality style series, that can be added to your shopping cart and shared with friends as you watch the video.
Although no results have yet been published, this interesting experimental blend of content, commerce and social interact seamlessly with the touch screen nature of the iPad.
Most importantly, this new advertising model reflects the usage patterns of today's tablet consumers, which are skewed more towards entertainment, shopping and social networking than traditional PC users.
The astonishing growth of the tablet has required a period of adjustment for marketers. Now that the tablet has hit the mainstream, urgent action is needed to better accommodate the needs and desires of the consumer. The brands that do this first will reap the greatest rewards.

While most people were sleeping overnight on Friday, the Arizona Department of Transportation was busy removing the old Pantano Union Pacific Railroad Bridge on Interstate 10, approximately 30 miles east of Tucson.
Despite heavy rainfall that dropped the temperatures to the mid-30s and wind gusts up to nearly 30 mph, ADOT successfully removed the bridge in nearly 10 hours. A full closure of I-10 between State Routes 83 and 90 was necessary to provide a safe work zone for the demolition. Check out this 49-second long video clip of the demolition of the old Pantano Union Pacific Railroad Bridge from start to finish:
During this bridge demolition project, drivers were guided by signage through a 67-mile detour using State Routes 83, 82 and 90. Both directions of I-10 were reopened Saturday morning when most people were just starting to wake up and start their day.
The old Pantano Union Pacific Railroad Bridge, which was built in 1955, was no longer in use because a near railway was built nearby.
By removing the Pantano UPRR Bridge, most commercial trucks will now be able to travel on I-10 through the project area. The old bridge was too low for many of today's taller trucks, who were previously required to take a 67-mile detour along state routes 83, 82 and 90.

Back in May, Rob Bell did an interview with comedian Pete Holmes on Pete's "You Made it Weird" podcast, and it's absolutely fantastic. It has to be the funniest and most insightful interview Bell has ever done. The interview is over two hours long and Rob is candid about his beliefs on many topics including the bible, hell, sex, marriage, same-sex marriage (which he firmly supports), the virgin birth, resurrection, and more. I shared this on Facebook and Twitter a few weeks ago, after a friend pointed it out to me, but I just went back and listened to it again and thought it was blog post worthy. Enjoy!
You can listen to the full interview here.
P.S. There's some language that might not make this safe for the church office, unless you're wearing headphones. So, don't say I didn't warn you!

Taliban avenge death of commander killed in October drone strike
Eight South Waziristan Taliban commanders, pictured in a wanted poster: 1. Hakeemullah Mehsud, 2. Waliur Rehman Mehsud, 3. Qari Hussain Mehsud, 4. Azam Tariq, 5. Maulvi Azmatullah, 6. Mufti Noor Wali, 7. Asmatullah Bhittani, 8. Mohammad Anwar Gandapur. |
The Movement of the Taliban in Pakistan killed one Pakistani soldier and captured 15 more in a raid that was carried out to avenge the death of a senior commander who was killed in a US Predator airstrike in October.
A group of 35 heavily armed Taliban fighters overran a Frontier Corps fort in the settled district of Tank earlier today, according to The Associated Press. "The militants burned down buildings and captured a significant amount of weapons," AP reported.
One Frontier Corps trooper was killed and two more were wounded during the fighting. Twenty-two troops were missing after the battle, and 15 of them were later confirmed to have been captured by the Taliban. Seven others returned to the fort.
The assault was led by Asmatullah Shaheen [shown above], the Taliban's military commander in the towns of Jandola and Tank. He is better known as Asmatullah Bhittani, and has openly recruited Pakistanis to wage jihad against the US in Afghanistan. He is on the Pakistani government's list of the 20-most-wanted Taliban commanders, which was released in the fall of 2009. Since the list was released, only one commander has been killed and another has been captured.
Shaheen said that the attack in Tank was carried out to avenge the death of Taj Gul Mehsud, who was reported to have been killed along with 12 other fighters in a US airstrike on Oct. 26 (his death was not confirmed until now). Taj Gul Mehsud has been described as a senior deputy to Hakeemullah Mehsud, the leader of the Movement of the Taliban in Pakistan, which is based in Pakistan's tribal areas and the northwest.
The US has put the drone program, which hunts senior al Qaeda and Taliban leaders as well as dangerous operatives, on hold since the Nov. 26 clash with Pakistani forces in Mohmand that resulted in the deaths of 24 Pakistani troops. The last strike took place 36 days ago, on Nov. 16.
The current pause in strikes is the longest since the program was expanded in the summer of 2008. A US intelligence official told The Long War Journal that the program is "on hold" so as not to contribute to the deteriorating relations between the US and Pakistan. Officials said the pause would be broken only if a high-value target were identified, but would not say how senior the al Qaeda leader must be for another strike to occur.
READER COMMENTS: "Taliban avenge death of commander killed in October drone strike"
Posted by wallbangr at December 23, 2011 4:27 PM ET:
Seems like Shaheen has little to worry about now that the Paks have all but raised the white flag in the war on terror. The irony is somewhat satisfuing, if in a guilty-pleasure kind of way: that the dog is still biting the hand that fed it. I think the Paks had better get used to it.
The fate of the 15 captured is grim, considering the proclivities of the TTP. I don't care if you are outnumbered 2:1 (2 killed plus 15 captured = 17 versus 35 TTP) or not, one would have to think that fighting to the death would have been preferred to being captured alive. Save one round for yourself, and all that.
Posted by Eddie D. at December 23, 2011 11:51 PM ET:
Our people need to quit being so nice, and, pursue these murderers where ever they run and hide, and, if Pakistan or anyone else wants to defend them, then go for them too. I have this feeling that when Pakistan starts feeling the effects of that missing aid money, that the USA gives so freely, they will welcome us back with keys to the city, and, possibly have Zawahiri chained and cuffed, waiting for our arrival.
Posted by mike merlo at December 24, 2011 12:23 PM ET:
This is good news. The Pakistani 'Taliban' might be 'our' enemy but at least they can be counted on to go after the Pakistani military.
Posted by Devin Leonard at December 24, 2011 4:33 PM ET:
This is all the more reason for the backstabbing, incompetent Pakis to WANT us to continue our drone strikes...we could be killing guys like these, but no...the Pakis are too busy shooting themselves in the foot by keeping our predator and reaper drones grounded because of their little hissy fit. Our drones or Spec Ops guys could be making mince meat out of these Taliban commanders but hey I guess the Pakis would rather sacrifice thier own soldiers then act like grown ups.
Posted by Mr T at December 27, 2011 1:20 PM ET:
"Seven others returned to the fort"
What does that mean? It sounded very strange to me. A fort is under attack and they somehow left the fort? Did they run away? Did they escape somehow? Were they captured and released and returned to the fort after release? Maybe they were complicit in aiding the attackers and left the fort until the fighting was over. Something is not sounding right.
25 or so soldiers with lots of weapons defending a fortified position were attacked by 35 people in open terrain and they were overrun?
Posted by Neonmeat at December 28, 2011 4:45 AM ET:
@ Devin Leonard,
I agree I think the Pakistanis in reality know this to be a fact. However the their impotent government is stuck under the the thumb of the Army and ISI, and also the public pressure created by the anti-US rallies we have seen just last week. They would rather hold onto power with the blessing of these quasi religious/militant groups within Pakistan than attempt to make a real change in their country and move them into the modern world and a better life for their citizens. Politicians that go against the mold and speak out against this apathy and corruption are essentially sidelined or in the worst cases murdered by the religious nuts who hold the sway of public opinion. Its sick but it seems to me they are happy to let their troops be murdered and beheaded by the Taliban if it keeps them in a position of power and stops them looking like a weak puppet of the United States, this goes for the Army even more so as they actually are the power brokers. Pakistan is a country with too much pride in itself, never realising it has so very little to be proud of.
Posted by Nolan at January 16, 2012 4:09 PM ET:
I was under the impression that Asmatullah Bhittani had been killed last December. Gunned down as it were. http://www.dawn.com/2010/12/23/taliban-commander-killed-in-pakistan-officials.html. It must be noted that yet again these are the now infamously incorrect "Pakistani intel officials," but in keeping tabs on the wanted TTP elements I haven't seen his name mentioned since. In the above article, I only saw the spokesman Ehsanullah quoted.
Posted by Nolan at January 17, 2012 3:53 PM ET:
Disregard the above comment, I completely overlooked the following article that I found filed in my research: http://www.asianage.com/international/taliban-commander-killed-pakistan-004.
So it appears an Asmatullah Mehsud was killed and not Shaheen last December. At first, I wondered if this Asmatullah Mehsud matched with the Asmatullah Mehsud who appears on the list of South Waziristan's most wanted along with Shaheen. It appears not as it would have been mentioned by now. Plus, the Maulvi Asmatullah mentioned as Waliur Rahman Mehsud's rep on the Shura e Murakeba is probably the one from the list. On top of all of that, there's this article from when Maulvi Asmatullah fought for a downed drone. I'd almost forgotten that. http://www.longwarjournal.org/archives/2011/09/taliban_pakistani_tr_2.php

In "Signs of Our Faith," a Tapestry of Faith program
Too often we underestimate the power of a touch, a smile, a kind word, a listening ear, an honest compliment, or the smallest act of caring, all of which have the potential to turn a life around. — Leo F. Buscaglia
As Unitarian Universalists, we believe members of communities take care of each other. This session identifies ways we care for others in our families, at school, in the congregation, and in the wider world. Children learn about the common Unitarian Universalist ritual of sharing our joys and concerns. Many congregations include Sharing of Joys and Concerns in worship. However, if your congregation call this ritual by a different name or conducts it in a different manner than is described in this session, replace the details with ones that fit your congregation. Feel free to include other rituals around caring that your congregation may practice.
For more information contact firstname.lastname@example.com.
This work is made possible by the generosity of individual donors and congregations. Please consider making a donation today.

Smoking cessation strategies
Nicotine patches
The most successful strategies for quitting are those that combine a behavior modification plan (changing the "habit" part), with a pharmacological aid (nicotine skin patch or nicotine gum) to alleviate the physical craving for nicotine.
You may question that if nicotine is so bad for your health, why would we suggest using the patch? The nicotine in the patch is absorbed without the combustion of a cigarette, so the bronchial airways are not aggravated. Also, using the patch instead of smoking eliminates over 4,000 chemicals, including many that cause cancer. It is easier to give up the nicotine patch than cigarettes.
Nicotine skin patches come in three different strengths:
- 21 mg (some of the patches are listed as 23 mg, but this is equivalent to 21 mg absorption)
- 14 mg
- 7 mg
If you smoke a pack of cigarettes per day or more, the usual recommended program is: four weeks of the 21 mg patch, followed by four weeks of the 14 mg patch, then two to four weeks of the 7 mg patch.
One patch should be placed each morning. Some people who have tried to place them at night have had difficulty sleeping. If the patch is too strong, you may also experience vivid Technicolor dreams. It is common to feel a little light-headed when the patch is first placed, similar to the "nicotine buzz" you may have experienced with your first cigarette. If, however, you experience prolonged dizziness, irritability, palpitations, headaches or nausea, contact your physician. The dose of the patch may need to be decreased. If the strength of the patch is decreased, increase the number of weeks you use it. The most successful cessation has occurred when the patches are used for a total of 10-12 weeks.
Choose a non-hairy, clean, dry area of your chest or upper arm for placement. Remove the old patch. Take off the protective liner of the new skin patch and press it firmly to a different area of your skin for 10 seconds. Wash your hands in case some of the nicotine has gotten on your hands.
The patch may be worn while bathing, showering or working out. The adhesive should be strong enough for the patch to stay in place.
REMEMBER: IT IS IMPORTANT NOT TO SMOKE WHEN WEARING THE SKIN PATCH. You may overdose on nicotine if you smoke with the skin patch in place. Even if you have decreased to only one to three cigarettes per day, with the skin patch in place you are actually getting more nicotine in a 24-hour period than smoking two packs of cigarettes per day. You must be ready to quit before you start using the patch. Nicotine patches help to curb some of the unpleasant withdrawal symptoms from nicotine. They are not magic. You have to convince yourself to quit.
DO NOT CUT SHORT THE USE OF THE PATCH! People who are most successful in using nicotine patches for smoking cessation are those who follow a 10-12 week program.
Nicotine gum
Some people prefer nicotine gum over the patch. The advantage of the gum is that you have something in your mouth to substitute the oral need from your cigarette. The disadvantage is that it is more difficult to obtain a steady nicotine level with the gum than the patch.
As with the patch, DO NOT COMBINE CIGARETTE SMOKING WITH USE OF NICOTINE GUM! The nicotine gum is available in 2 mg or 4 mg (double strength). When using the gum, chew it slowly until a tingling or peppery taste is in your mouth (usually about 15 chews). Then "park" the nicotine gum between your cheek and gum. This allows the nicotine to be absorbed through the lining of your mouth and into your bloodstream. Start to chew the gum again when the peppery taste or tingling returns, park the gum in a different spot between your cheek and gum. Repeat this until most of the nicotine is gone (usually about 30 minutes).
Most people find that nine to 12 pieces of gum per day will control their urge to smoke. DO NOT USE MORE THAN 20 PIECES OF THE 4 mg (double strength) GUM OR MORE THAN 30 PIECES OF THE 2 mg STRENGTH PER DAY.
As the urge to smoke decreases, gradually use fewer pieces of nicotine gum. Slowly decrease over two to three months. Every four to seven days, you can reduce the number of pieces of gum per day by one. For example, if you are using 12 pieces a day, begin using 11 pieces after four to seven days. Then four to seven days later, use 10 pieces per day. You may also begin to decrease the time you use the gum. Use some pieces for only 10-15 minutes instead of 30 minutes. Keep decreasing the number and length of time you use the gum over two to three months until you are completely free of nicotine.
Tips to help you quit
- Plan on smoking your last cigarette sometime before you go to bed. Then, when you wake up in the morning, you have an eight-hour head start at quitting.
- Be prepared to change your habits. If you normally have a cigarette with your morning coffee, skip the coffee and have juice instead. Or have your breakfast in the non-smoking section of a restaurant. If you smoke a cigarette during your mid-morning break, keep working through the break or use the time to take a brisk walk.
- Keep a pen in your hand to simulate the feeling of holding a cigarette. Go ahead and fidget. It's better than smoking.
- Chew gum, candy, carrot sticks, pencils or ice cubes.
- Exercise helps relieve tension and it gives you something to do. It also reinforces your commitment to good health.
- Drink plenty of liquids. Not only do they help satisfy your oral cravings, they also cleanse the body of those unhealthy chemicals.
- Cravings last only a few seconds. Each time you suppress one, they get further and further apart, until you can go days without even thinking about a cigarette.
- When you have a craving, take a deep breath, hold it for 10 seconds, then release it slowly. This simulates the act of smoking and helps provide some relief.
- Brush your teeth immediately after a meal. This signals that eating has stopped. Your mouth will feel fresh, and you'll have no desire to pollute it with a nasty cigarette.
Quit day checklist
Get rid of all smoking materials:
- Destroy cigarettes by wetting them down or breaking them in half.
- Discard or give away all matches, lighters, cigarette cases and containers

What are themes of the short story "The Landlady" by Roald Dahl?
2 Answers | Add Yours
I think one of the most obvious themes is that of appearances versus reality. It is interesting that the landlady is, at first at least, remarkably hospitable towards Billy. She treats him very generously and gives him his own floor for his own, and likewise charges him a minimal rent. Clearly Billy is taken in by this "kindness" which causes him to ignore the various signs that something sinister is going on here. Of course, it is all to easy to be taken in by a nice old lady who seems to be living by herself, when actually something much more sinister is happening. The fact that the tea tastes of bitter almonds indicates what is really going on, for the taste of bitter almonds is an indication that cyanide has been placed in the tea.
A clear theme in "The Landlady" is deception and and the naivety of Billy Weaver. The Landlady herself decieves Billy by convincing him of her kind nature and offering such reasonable and humble accomadation. As the story continues, the act slowly fades away, and the reader notices that Billy is beginning to become suspicious. The constant offer of tea and the curious case of the previous residents baffles the reader and raises the tension. Finally, the story ends in a thrilling fashion, whilst also leaving enough information untold to allow the reader to imagine they're own ending for poor Billy...

S. Ali Fatemi, M.D.
Kennedy Krieger Institute
707 N. Broadway
Baltimore, MD 21205
Phone: (443) 923-9150
Email: firstname.lastname@example.com
S. Ali Fatemi, MD, is a pediatric neurologist at the Division of Neurology and Developmental Medicine, and an investigator at the Hugo W. Moser Research Institute at Kennedy Krieger. Dr. Fatemi is also an assistant professor of neurology and pediatrics at Johns Hopkins University.
Biographical Sketch:
Dr. Fatemi received his medical degree from the Medical University of Vienna, Austria in 1999. After graduation, he served as a researcher and lecturer at the Institute for Medical Chemistry in Vienna and completed an internship in pediatrics at the Vienna General Hospital. He was recruited by Dr. Hugo W. Moser as a post-doctoral fellow in neurogenetics and neuroimaging research at Kennedy Krieger Institute in 2001. During this initial period at Kennedy Krieger Institute, Dr. Fatemi collaborated with a team of scientists and developed new imaging methods in patients with leukodystrophies, a group of rare genetic diseases that affect the brain's white matter and coordinated an internet-2 based imaging network for these diseases. He then left Kennedy Krieger Institute to train in general pediatrics and then completed a child neurology residency at the Massachusetts General Hospital, an affiliate of Harvard Medical School, in Boston. Dr. Fatemi has returned to the Kennedy Krieger Institute in 2008 as a faculty member.
He is a member of the Child Neurology Society, the International Child Neurology Association, the Society for Neuroscience, the American Academy of Neurology and the International Society for Magnetic Resonance in Medicine. He has served as ad hoc reviewer for the Journals Child Development and American Journal of Neuroradiology.
At the Kennedy Krieger outpatient center, Dr. Fatemi evaluates children with a variety of neurologic problems. His greatest interest is in genetic and acquired conditions that affect the brain's white matter in newborns and infants, these include white matter injury associated with extreme prematurity (also referred to as periventricular leukomalacia), as well as leukodystrophies
Research Summary:
The brain's white matter consists of axons, the "cables" that build up a complex network of connections between different neurons, these axons are wrapped by oligodendrocytes, cells that produce a thick membrane, referred to as myelin, which is important for the isolation and protection of axons. Another group of cells, referred to as astrocytes, are also important constituents of white matter and serve as gatekeepers for nutrients that enter the brain and play a role in brain metabolism. Disorders of white matter can either affect the axon, the oligodendrocyte, or the astroycte. Perinatally acquired white matter injury is the leading cause of cerebral palsy and other neuropsychiatric conditions in children born prematurely.
Dr. Fatemi is a member of the neuroscience laboratory and the F.M. Kirby Research Center for functional Brain Imaging. He collaborates closely with a multi-disciplinary group of scientists at the Hugo W. Moser Research Institute and at Johns Hopkins to study the molecular mechanism involved in white matter development and injury in mouse models for cerebral palsy and perinatal white matter injury. Dr. Fatemi and his colleagues utilize different molecular, histological and advanced magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) techniques to examine rodents.
In addition, there is a strong effort at the neuroscience laboratory to use animal models as a test bed for cell-based therapeutic approaches. Stem cells and progenitor cells are derived from mouse embryos and Dr. Fatemi and his colleagues are currently evaluating if transplanted cells are able to survive in the injured animals, migrate to the desired site, and eventually restore white matter injury either by differentiation into more mature cells or by providing support to the injured tissue.
Dr. Fatemi is also a member of the Neurogenetics Research Center at Kennedy Krieger and is involved in clinical and imaging research studies of patients with X-linked adrenoleukodystrophy.

In what ways can fiscal policy affect aggregate supply?
1 Answer | Add Yours
We usually say that fiscal policy has more of an impact on aggregate demand (AD) than on aggregate supply (AS). However, it is possible for fiscal policy to affect AS. This can happen through tax policy or through government spending.
It is possible for government spending to affect AS. This happens only if the government spends money on investments. For example, if the government spends money on research into clean energy, it might eventually increase AS by increasing our clean infrastructure.
However, we would be more likely to argue that taxation can affect AS. This is why supply side economists argue that we should lower taxes. Supply siders argue that a decrease in taxes will lead to an increase in such things as investment and work. They argue that people will be more likely to work more hours and more likely to invest if they are able to keep more of the money that they make. Thus, a decrease in taxes should lead to an increase in the amount of work and investment being done. This will lead to an increase in AS.

Contemporary Research Previews HD-SDI Modulator
Last week at the NAB Show in Las Vegas, Contemporary Research previewed what the company calls the industry's first affordable HD-SDI modulator, the QMOD-SDI.
Last week at the NAB Show in Las Vegas, Contemporary Research previewed what the company calls the industry's first affordable HD-SDI modulator, the QMOD-SDI.
The new digital QAM modulator, which company officials said will retailing for $2,990, is designed to distribute HD and SD SDI media from live studio feeds, high-performance digital signage players, and broadcast-quality video sources. Applications might include in-house broadband RF systems at sports, retail, and entertainment facilities, corporate offices, colleges, and worship centers.
The QMOD-SDI accepts HD-SDI, SD-SDI, Component, S-Video and Composite video, plus digital and analog audio. It then integrates professional-quality HD encoding, QAM processing, channel up-conversion, and adjustable RF amplification to distribute the HDTV digital cable channel.
General-purpose interface inputs can trigger emergency alert system programming. Video inputs are fully switchable between SDI, Component, and Composite inputs. Front-panel buttons and LCD display make for easy setup, and the half-rack space enclosure and low 10W power draw save both space and energy, according to the company.
"Our QMOD-HD which features analog VGA, Component, and S-Video/Composite inputs, has been well received by dealers and users," said Contemporary Research president Scott Hetzler, in a statement. "When we asked our integrators what they preferred for digital video, the overwhelming response was for HD-SDI. There simply were no affordable HDTV modulators. Now there is one."

Robo-Palooza students made robots toss a ball, learned about engineering
Sunday, April 20, 2014
DOVER — The phrase on the front sign of The Children's Museum of New Hampshire states that it is "taking imagination to new heights."
The high schools' robots, all manufactured by the students with mentoring aid from adults, consisted of a machine that could throw a large red ball distances. These brought cheers from the outdoor audience which numbered in the hundreds in the course of the day. The UNH Luna robot has participated in NASA competitions in Florida, placing sixth in the most recent event. The majority of the Luna Cats are mechanical engineering students at the university. Their robot is designed to excavate mines on the moon. Observation was not all that was present this day, as the robots came inside and children were allowed, with the guidance of the students to operate them. Smokey Heaton, 3, of Medford, Mass., could be seen, with assistance of his mom, Shannon, pushing the button to activate the device, much to the pleasure of Woodman Park students Carlie and Ella Lynn Pinkard. As Smokey pushed the button, the sisters, ages 9 and 6 respectively, jumped and caught the ball.
Rebecca Lecam of the museum staff commented: "having the outside show was great, and it was wonderful having them inside, as hands on activities. That is always our aim."

why does no one make a countertop i like?
posted by: snrub on 05.14.2008 at 09:53 pm in Kitchens Forum no one but no one makes a countertop material that fits all of the following criteria
1. isn't granite (cf. granite) look, all i want is a countertop -- a plain charcoal gray matte expanse. no sparkly bits. no big huge seams and variations. not highly polished. not going to have an imprint of the first lemon i leave on there for 10 minutes. not going to be all spotty around the sink where it's wet a lot. and the thing that ticks me off most of all is that most solid surface countertops fit that bill except that they all are trying to look like granite, and i don't like speckly sparkly patterned stuff. this is a large purchase (obviously, with the amount of time everyone spends discussing it on here) and i've been looking for months and nothing but nothing fits the bill. for a while i was high on paperstone, which has exactly the look and feel i want -- until i spoke to a current owner (referred to me by the store) who says it marks where it sits wet. i thought there was a silestone for me, until i saw it in person and it was much muddier browner gray than i wanted. (plus it's ungodly expensive) i thought i could pull off soapstone, but i don't think there's a plain enough piece for me, without all the seams and marks. i thought i could live with absolute black honed granite, but both my wife and i don't like the feel when you put a glass down on a stone counter. i thought that wilsonart's 'graphite mirage' would work, but now i fear it's too sparkly (going to see some tomorrow). i have to make a decision and soon, like within the next day or two. and i've been waffling about this for months, looking for something that will work. i'm on the verge of going back to formica. ok that's it, really. i don't expect much of a response, but just felt like venting where someone might get what i'm talking about. oh, and if anyone has a wilsonart 'graphite mirage' countertop, can you let me know if it's sparkly? and how shiny/polished it is? thanks.

Snowden move creates international tension
Moscow – Edward Snowden's move out of Moscow's airport had many leaders in Washington uneasy about relations with Russia.
The former NSA contractor was granted asylum for a year, a move which the White House called, "A slap in the face."
Now, a Fall summit between President Obama and Vladimir Putin may not happen.
Senator Chuck Schumer of New York even recommended relocating the upcoming G-20 Summit away from Russia.
"As long as Prime Minister Putin acts like a bully, we have only one choice: To stand up to him and show him that bullies pay a price," the senator said.
Snowden could apply for Russian citizenship to continue to avoid espionage charges in the United States.

I have 3 year old grape vines, reliance, concord and a white. They are doing nothing. Every spring they come up looking fine , then do nothing. By the end of the season they drop their leaves I think prematurely and wither away. I spray for fungus but was always told they did not need fertilizer, they would grow like weeds. They are still just a small 2' high bush. I am in the mountains of NC zone 7 with a sandy clay. Guess I always thought grapes were a no brainer, perhaps that labels me. |
Follow-Up Postings:
I planted 2 concord grape plants for my mother last mothers day. I occasionally give them some miracle-gro and they are about 6' up an 8' pole now. |
don: Grapes do need fertilizer if they aren't growing, mainly nitrogen. If there are weeds, grass, or big trees nearby that might be part of the issue. Those things compete for water and fertilizer and slow down any newly planted fruit. |
Thanks folks! After 3 years I got the message; fertilize! |

And they have proven it many times so far=( And now..hunters dont have to use Ammo. im A hunter and i think this sucks.. This whole game is so easy nowdays. Well ty blizzard for putting the final nail in the coffert! If this becomes reality... ty for me and have fun and GL everyone=) It was a good game once...
