There was no Homeland-sized snub or Patrick J. Adams-esque shocker with the Screen Actors Guild Awards nominations this year, but there were still some pleasant and unpleasant surprises among the pretty run-of-the-mill list. Check out our picks below and then tell us yours.Homeland, Modern Family lead SAG nominationsSurprisesFirst-time nominees: Long overlooked by SAG, Parks and Recreation's Amy Poehler and The Big Bang Theory's Jim Parsons finally break through with their first individual nominations to fill in that gaping hole in their awards resume. Louis C.K. (Louie) didn't have to wait nearly as long for recognition from his peers, showing up in the comedy actor field and knocking out reigning Emmy champ and last year's nominee Jon Cryer in the process. But Parsons and C.K. will may have to be content with a nomination: We all know Alec Baldwin will probably seven-peat.Jeff Daniels: Aaron Sorkin's acclaimed, but divisive Newsroom didn't make the cut anywhere else, but Daniels - awards-worthy for his pilot rant alone - snuck into drama actor in what was shaping up to be a fairly predictable lineup between staples Steve Buscemi and Bryan Cranston, Jon Hamm returning after a year off, and fellow first-timer and Emmy champ Damian Lewis. (Perennial nominee and former champ Michael C. Hall was the one who missed out.)What the doctor ordered: There was a tie in the comedy ensemble race, which meant six nominees, but few predicted that the addition would be Nurse Jackie. The Showtime dramedy, heading into its fifth year, earned its first nomination in the category after a well-received, if low-buzz fourth season.Extra Downton Abbey love: Switching from miniseries to series, the British drama reaped the expected nominations for Maggie Smith and the cast. But Michelle Dockery managed to pop up despite the heavily stacked field, amplified more by the fact that the SAGs don't have supporting TV categories (where Smith would've competed). She finds herself up against three reigning Emmy champs, and a former Emmy champ and the winning-est SAG performer ever (Julianna Margulies).Matthew McConaughey's so skinny! See other celebs who transformed their body for movie rolesSnubsHBO: HBO did not have a good day, for its ladies at least. Reigning Emmy winner Julia Louis-Dreyfus (Veep) seemed like a shoo-in for a nod for her bitingly hilarious and frazzled V.P. But the 11-time nominee and five-time winner was MIA from the comedy actress field, a race that is much softer than its drama counterpart. Her HBO-mate and critical fave Lena Dunham (Girls) was absent as well, as were both of their shows in comedy ensemble. We love Betty White, but let's call a spade a spade: She's getting in every year (and will probably win her third straight SAG) because of her name. If the Emmys dropped her this year, you can too, SAG.Parks and Recreation: Poehler finally snagged a nod, but her show is still not invited to the big party. Between its consistently poor showing at the Emmys and a measly one Golden Globe nomination so far for Poehler (that can change Thursday), we may have to accept that awards bodies just do not like Parks and Rec. On the bright side, perhaps Poehler's nomination bodes well for next year? Baby steps. Farewell nominations: The SAGs can be a sentimental bunch (it is actors voting for actors after all), but it resisted the urge to give farewell mentions to former nominees and big names Glenn Close, Kathy Bates and Kyra Sedgwick, whose show The Closer aired on the same network carrying the SAGs, TNT. In the same vein, Dallas icon Larry Hagman did not score a posthumous nod. Lest we forget, Law & Order's Jerry Orbach was shockingly nominated - and won - in 2005, just a little more than a month after his death.Network dramas: Months after the Emmys fielded its first ever drama series lineup without a network show, the SAGs' drama ensemble category does the same. The Good Wife, the sole network representative in the race the past three years, was dropped, while the SAGs rectified its weird Homeland snub last year and category flip-flopper Downton Abbey joined the fray.

The floors look great. The old hand scrapped look is just what we were looking for and the inperfections with the grain are celebrated. We installed these floors in a bedroom and couldn't be happier with quality, color, and durability.
The floor is beautiful.
Service and delivery comments:
The floor is great. The customer service not so much. I purchased extra floor, took that back and got the transition moldings with the money back. Well, got too many molding and took them back. Now I am told I will be waiting 3-5 weeks for a REFUND. Sorry but that is sucky customer service. I sure didn't have 3-5 weeks to pay for it.

This is reputed to be Konan's ultimate technique, where, using an innumerable amount of small sheets of paper hidden in the lake, she causes the lake in Amegakure to be split in half, resulting in the rapid creation of a huge abyss beneath the target. Due to the sudden lack of any available foothold, the target inevitably descends ever-deeper into the depths of the chasm. In order to enhance the attack's lethality and limit potential forms of retaliation, Konan mixes in six hundred billion of prepared explosive tags with her normal paper, which is enough for ten minutes of non-stop explosions; this was done in specific to counter Obito Uchiha's five minutes limited intangibility. These explosive tags can also be directed towards the target as they fall.[2]
- The Japanese word for paper person (紙者, shisha) is pronounced the same as the Japanese word for messenger (使者, shisha). This gives the name of this technique the additional meaning Messenger of God — a messenger of God being an angel, which is also Konan's moniker.

NEW BREMEN 64, FORT RECOVERY 55 COLDWATER — The New Bremen Cardinals survived a rough second quarter and made their free throws down the stretch to advance in the Division IV sectional tournament with a 64-55 victory over the Fort Recovery Indians at Coldwater. The Cardinals (13-8) will advance to the sectional championship on Friday at 8:00 against the Ada Bulldogs. Carson Manger led the Cardinals with 21 points and nine rebounds and Nolan Fox had 14 points. Elsewhere Division II
ST. MARYS — The New Knoxville girls basketball team has no problem waiting as long as it takes for an opposing defense to break down.
At times on Thursday night, it took a Job-like patience to get the job done.
Undersized Ada pestered and pushed the bigger, stronger New Knoxville girls basketball team for more than three quarters on Thursday night, threatening to set up what has been unthinkable recently — a Division IV district title game in western Ohio without a Midwest Athletic Conference team.
25 Years Ago This Week – 1987 This week in 1987, Mike Kiehl's St. Marys Roughriders concluded their regular season with a 68-57 victory over the Parkway Panthers. The Roughriders got down to business immediately after the opening tip and thumped the Panthers 20-8 in the opening eight minutes. Things played out a little more even in the second quarter, but St. Marys still managed to break for intermission in front, 35-22.
COLDWATER — It was a classic tournament basketball game at Coldwater Wednesday evening that had a little bit of everything and in the end it was a layup by Elliott Westerbeck of New Bremen that gave the Cardinals a 58-56 double overtime victory over the Marion Local Flyers in the Division IV sectional semifinal game.
The Cardinals (13-8) will play St. Henry in the sectional final on Friday in the second game. St. Henry defeated Waynesfield-Goshen 67-31. Marion Local ends their season at 11-10.
New Bremen Boys Basketball
Tickets for New Bremen's Friday night sectional final game against St. Henry will be sold at the High School office on Thursday March 1 from 8 a.m. until 3:30 p.m. and from 7 p.m. until 8:00 p.m. Tickets will also be sold on Friday from 7:45 a.m. until 8:15 a.m. at the Junior High and from 8:30 until 4 p.m. at the High School.
Minster Boys Basketball
LIMA — Good Greve, it happened again.
For the second time in five days, a 3-pointer in the final seconds downed the St. Marys boys basketball team.
The latest heartbreaker ended the Riders' season.
Wapakoneta junior guard Alex Greve knocked down a 3-pointer from the left wing with 1.5 seconds left to lift Wapakoneta to a 43-40 win over rival St. Marys in a Division II sectional semifinal at Lima Senior on Tuesday night.
COLDWATER — Defense and hot shooting allowed the Minster Wildcats to open Division IV sectional play at Coldwater with a 58-48 victory over the New Knoxville Rangers.
"It is a nice time of the year to be shooting 47 percent," Wildcats head coach Mike Lee said. "That has been our bugaboo the past couple weeks. It is tournament time and we have stressed from the get go that games are won by what you do defensively and how well you rebound the basketball."
Derek Jay of St. Marys recently competed in the Ohio Knights of Columbus Regional Free Throw Contest held at Sidney Lehman High School on Sunday, Feb. 26.
Jay, a seventh grader, won the regional title for the fourth consecutive year to earn his trip to the state contest to be held Saturday, March 17 in Columbus.
Jay hit 23 of 25 free throws (92%) to earn the victory and will attempt to win a third state title in his fourth overall trip to state-level competition.
ST. MARYS (5-15) vs. WAPAKONETA (7-13)
COLDWATER — It's a super sectional, even if it's not a super sectional by definition.
Northwest Ohio doesn't have the expanded version of the re-seeded first four rounds of the tournament, but the Division IV sectional at Coldwater lived up to the name as the top two seeded teams in the brackets went down on Saturday night.
"It can happy really easily in this sectional," New Knoxville head coach Tim Hegemier said.
Hegemier and his Rangers had plenty to celebrate.
SHAWNEE TOWNSHIP — In a season of close calls and frustrating endings, the regular season and Western Buckeye League finale might've delivered the most powerful punch to the St. Marys boys basketball team's collective stomach yet.
Shawnee's Thad Vernon hit a game-winning three-pointer at the buzzer to lift the Shawnee Indians to a 57-55 victory over St. Marys on Friday night.

On June 19, The Home Depot Center will officially become StubHub Center.
LAGalaxy.com videographer Paolo Ferrari spoke to several members of the LA Galaxy for this promotion video.
CARSON, Calif. – Robbie Rogers needs extended minutes if he's going to return to the Rogers of old and it seems at long last, he'll be able to log an extended shift for the LA Galaxy in Saturday's Reserve League match against the USL PRO's Los Angeles Blues.
Rogers confirmed in training on Thursday that he is expected to start on Saturday as he continues to his return to full fitness. The appearance will be Rogers' first Reserve league match for LA and his fifth appearance across all competitions.
The 26-year-old midfielder has begun to show flashes of his former self, like a step-over fueled run that led to a Landon Donovan shot wide of goal in LA's 3-1 defeat to Real Salt Lake last week, but he understands that he needs more minutes if he's going to progress.
"Hopefully, I'll go as much as I can 60 or 70 minutes before my calves start to cramp. I wish that I can get fit more quickly, but I'm still a ways away," said Rogers, who has played 56 minutes in three MLS appearances to date. "I need to get 60 or 70 minutes to really push myself. It's about doing that and being exhausted after that. It's tracking back and being able to do that again. I'm a winger and that's my job."
CARSON, Calif. -- LA Galaxy players Landon Donovan, A.J. DeLaGarza, Sean Franklin, and Marcelo Sarvas took part in the fifth annual camps for kids on Thursday. The event allowed the LA Galaxy Foundation to team up with StubHub Center Foundation and StubHub to host a camp for many local children.
LA forward Landon Donovan, for one, was pleased with his involvement.
"We've known that this is coming for awhile, but it's nice to officially open StubHub Center," said Donovan. "Obviously, it's a part of the coporate world, but it's important that there is geniune care about the community. We're lucky to have partners that do geniunely care and that makes it better for everybody."

CARSON, Calif. -- Robbie Keane is returning to Southern California on Thursday, LA Galaxy head coach Bruce Arena confirmed following the club's training session.
Keane appeared in all four of Ireland's matches during the international break and tallied five goals as he became the nation's leader in appearances. As for when Keane is expected to return to training, Arena is allowing the forward some time to rest after a busy international period.
"I'm not really worried about that. [He'll be back over] the next couple of days. He's played enough and traveled enough that he doesn't need to be doing a lot in the near future."
CARSON, Calif. – LA Galaxy forward Jack McBean continued his road to recovery on Wednesday with his first full training session with the team since suffering a fractured left clavicle in LA's 2-0 victory over Real Salt Lake on April 27.
McBean has been on the shelf since in April after undergoing surgery to repair the fracture, which he suffered in a collision with RSL defender Nat Borchers. However, since his injury, McBean has been steadily returning to fitness and on Wednesday made his first real step toward game action.
"I feel good," McBean told LA Galaxy Insider following his first full day of training. "I've been working pretty hard to get back, but since the guys were on a road trip, I couldn't really train too much, but I got cleared yesterday for contact so that's good."
Throughout his absence, McBean been a frequent sight on the LA training ground doing fitness work, but with his first day of full contact training complete, the 18-year-old is hopeful of earning minutes off the bench in Saturday's Reserve League match against the Los Angeles Blues.
"I've been mostly keeping my legs fit, so lot of running and a lot of bike," said McBean. "Not much upper body stuff yet, but I started lifting two days ago so I'm getting that back now too. Injuries happen and I'm just lucky that it wasn't my knee or something else."
The injury came at a difficult time for McBean, who had started five consecutive league games prior to his injury and had notched a goal and two assists in seven league appearances. During the match against RSL, McBean enjoyed one of the finest games of his young career as he helped create LA's second goal of the night before suffering the injury in the 53rd minute.
Although it was difficult for the teenage forward to sit due to injury, the Galaxy are eager to welcome him back.
"It's probably the worse feeling that you can have as an athlete to be on a stationary bike for six weeks," said associate head coach Dave Sarachan. "I know that he's excited to be back and we'reexcited to have him back too because when he left us he was doing well."
One question remains about McBean's recovery however. With so much of McBean's game depending on initiating contact with defenders will he shy from hits as he looks to recover? Not a chance says the teenage forward.
"It's mostly mental for me. It's all in my head. Doctors clear you for a reason and they don't clear you if you're not ready to take a hit," said McBean. "I just have to get a good lick and I'll be fine."
Jose Villarreal is out to make waves with the U.S. at the U-20 World Cup in Turkey, but the LA Galaxy Homegrown forward is well aware that it'll be no easy task.
I spoke to Villarreal about the U.S. U-20 campaign in this piece for LAGalaxy.com, which you can read here.
Accompanying the piece is this video produced by LAGalaxy.com last week upon Villarreal's call to the squad.
Check it out below.
CARSON, Calif. – Bruce Arena knows that he'll be without the services of midfielder Marcelo Sarvas against the Portland Timbers on June 19 due to ill-gotten yellow card, but is unlikely to prevent the LA Galaxy head coach from attempting to enact changes to the league's officiating rules in the future.
The MLS Disciplinary Committee levied an undisclosed fine to Real Salt Lake midfielder Ned Grabavoy on Tuesday for his act of simulation that led to referee Drew Fischer to award a yellow card to Sarvas in the 91st minute of LA's 3-1 defeat to RSL. The caution is Sarvas' fifth and will cause him to miss LA's next match due to yellow card accumulation and while Grabavoy earned a fine for his misconduct due to league rules the call cannot be overturned.
Although Arena implored the officials to "reevaluate" the call after the match, the LA head coach understands that he has no way to overturn the call at this moment.
"That's a rules issue. It's a perfect example of how they have to get that corrected," Arena told reporters on Wednesday.
Galaxy associate head coach Dave Sarachan also chimed in on the call offering his own solution to the issue.
"Maybe there should be some addendum to a fifth yellow in a moment of embellishment, maybe alleviate the suspension. Maybe that's something for review," Sarachan said.
As for when it could be corrected, Arena admitted that the club will have to wait till next year to appeal for a rule change as it is a "federation issue." However, the Galaxy boss was quick to admit that he's not letting himself get frustrated over the call.
"In this league, if you worry about the officiating, you'll drive yourself crazy, so we don't have any issues. It is what it is. It's a mistake and that's life," said Arena. "I'm more concerned, probably, about the referee in New England on the play that created the second goal than that one. Hopefully, these young officials are getting better, that's the goal behind all of it."
Omar Gonzalez started and went 90 minutes as the United States defeated Panama 2-0 to take first place at the top of their CONCACAF World Cup qualifying group.
Jozy Altidore and Eddie Johnson scored the goals as the U.S. is now sits two points ahead of second place Costa Rica and third place Mexico in the Hexagonal. Against Panama, Gonzalez was rarely tested except for a brief lapse that led to a Luis Tejada chance in the game's dying moments. Following the match, Gonzalez spoke to reporters following the match about his maturity in the back. The U.S. finish up this series of international matches on Tuesday against Honduras at Rio Tinto Stadium.
Meanwhile, Robbie Keane started and went 56 minutes as Ireland fell 2-0 to Spain at Yankee Stadium in New York. The match is the final fixture for the Irish during this international period. Ireland will participate in a friendly against Wales on August 14, which does fall on a FIFA date before resuming World Cup qualifying against Sweden on Sept. 6. Both matches will take place in Dublin.
Thoughts on Gonzalez's performance? Do you expect Keane to continue to be a feature with Ireland?
Share your thoughts below.
It appears that there will be no overturn of the yellow card accumulation suspension for Marcelo Sarvas for the LA Galaxy's next match against the Portland Timbers on June 19, leaving a hole in the Galaxy midfield.
So who will get the start alongside Juninho? LA Galaxy head coach Bruce Arena has a number of options including Rafael Garcia, Michael Stephens, Kenney Walker, and even Hector Jimenez.
Garcia, a second-year midfielder from Cal-State Northridge, appears to be the frontrunner to replace Sarvas. The 24-year-old has made five appearances this season including an 80 minute shift against the New York Red Bulls on May 19.
The other top choice is Stephens, who has been primarily used as a left-sided midfielder this season and has made nine appearances with four starts during the 2013 regular season. However, Stephens has seen considerable time in central midfield during his four year career. Meanwhile, Walker and Jimenez have each seen time in central midfield during MLS Reserve League and preseason matches, but have yet to play in the center during league play.
Arena will have plenty of time to prep his midfielders during Saturday's Reserve League match against the Los Angeles Blues where all four players are likely to see considerable minutes.
Who do you want to see play in central midfield for LA against Portland?
Vote below.
The MLS Disciplinary Committee fined Real Salt Lake midfielder Ned Grabavoy an undisclosed amount on Monday for an act of simulation that led to a yellow card for Marcelo Sarvas in the 90th minute of RSL's 3-1 victory over the LA Galaxy on Saturday.
Referee Drew Fischer awarded a yellow card to Sarvas for a foul on Grabavoy, but the Disciplinary Committee unamiously ruled that the RSL midfielder committed an obvious act of simulation resulting in the fine.
Sarvas remains suspended for LA's June 19 match against the Portland Timbers due to yellow card accumulation. According to the Disciplinary Committee Principles and Parameters, cards issued in MLS matches can not be appealed except in a case of mistaken identity. Appeals have been made to an independent review board this season for red card offenses, but it does not apply to yellow card cautions.

The UFC's women's bantamweight champion has landed a role in the upcoming "Expendables 3" action flick. Screenplay writer and star Sylvester Stallone announced the news late Tuesday on his official Twitter account.
Rousey (7-0 MMA, 1-0 UFC) is coming off yet another first-round armbar victory. She stopped Liz Carmouche in February in the main event of UFC 157, the first women's fight in UFC history. She currently is taping Season 18 of "The Ultimate Fighter," which she'll coach opposite her fiercest rival, Miesha Tate. The two then will meet in a rematch for Rousey's title at UFC 168 in December in Las Vegas.
It is unknown when Rousey's work on "Expendables 3" will begin or how extensive a role she will have in the film, which also stars Arnold Schwarzenegger, Bruce Willis, Jason Statham, Jackie Chan, Dolph Lundgren, Steven Seagal and former UFC heavyweight champion Randy Couture essentially a who's who of Hollywood action stars.
The film currently is in pre-production and, according to the Internet Movie Database, has an expected release date of Aug. 15, 2014.
Rousey will not be the first UFC fighter to venture into movies, of course. Perhaps most famously or infamously UFC light heavyweight Quinton Jackson got a major role as B.A. Barracus in "The A-Team." And because of his commitments to the film, "Rampage" had to delay a planned main event at UFC 107 in his home city of Memphis.
That left UFC President Dana White perturbed, and since then he frequently has questioned whether it's wise for his fighters to pass up the money they make fighting for the money they make in the movies which he argues doesn't compare to their regular jobs.
Earlier this year, not long after she beat Carmouche, Rousey was rumored to be up for a spot in "The Hunger Games" sequel due out later this year starring Best Actress Oscar winner Jennifer Lawrence.
"You know how I feel about the movie stuff," White told FUEL TV's "UFC Tonight" earlier this year. "The hard part is, even like the 'Rampage' thing when 'Rampage' did the movie, it was Rampage's dream to be a part of 'The A-Team' and everything else. I don't want to take away any opportunities away from Ronda, but at the same time, the thing that you have to keep in perspective is that her window of opportunity as a professional athlete is (small). She could make a zillion movies when this sport's over. And where she's really going to make the money is here fighting. I don't care if she's the lead role in The Hunger Games 2,' she would not make anywhere near, and I mean not even in the universe, to the money she makes fighting

It must have been Muzzle Velocity created by Digi4fun in 1997 (similar to modern Red Orchestra). I enjoyed shooting down airplanes using tanks and destroying tanks using heavy machine gun. The graphics was also terrible where I wasn't able to tell an enemy soldier from my own men :) You could win every battle if you had enough artillery and a single mobile unit :)

Just as your body cannot function properly without proper hydration, thirsty skin simply can't look its best. Your skin's moisture is what keeps the skin cells plump, and when dehydration sets in, the cells can shrivel up and create an uneven, rough texture. In addition, inadequate moisture makes your skin more susceptible to wrinkling, as parched skin has difficulty recovering from the furrowing and creasing that occurs as your face moves. With the Academie Moisturizers collection, you can ensure that your skin is supplied with the proper hydration to help it maintain its smooth texture and youthful resilience.
The Academie Moisturizers lineup is part of a skin care collection founded over 85 years ago in Paris. For decades, the formulas in the Academie Moisturizers collection were only available at the best spas and salons throughout the world. Now, you can benefit from the nourishing, hydrating blends of ingredients found in the luxurious Academie Moisturizers range without having to leave home. Shop Paris' leading moisturizers collection now and find the formula that is just right for your skin's unique hydration needs.
For more than 85 years, Academie Moisturizers have been synonymous with luxury. Create a complexion that is softer, suppler and more radiant; bring home the ultra healing, maximally effective hydrating formulas from the collection today.
The Academie DermActe Moisture Cream is an ideal formula for skin that is regularly subjected to ultraviolet light and other environmental stressors that can rob the complexion of moisture. Using high molecular weight hyaluronic acid, the cream forms an invisible coating over the skin that draws moisture out of the air and allows it to penetrate the tissue. Macadamia oil is added to restore the skin's natural acid barrier and prevent dryness from reoccurring.
The Academie DermActe Intense Age Recovery Cream is a highly effective moisturizer that helps reverse damage to the complexion and reduce the appearance of signs of aging. The cream contains a peptide blend that supplies the skin with the raw materials necessary for manufacturing collagen and elastin. Clinically proven to accelerate the rate of collagen production, Vitamin C is added to the formula to further increase its age-fighting potential.
The Academie DermActe Restorative Exfoliating Night Cream is a nighttime moisturizing formula intended for those whose complexions have become rough, wrinkled and dull due to the effects of aging. While you sleep, the blend of alpha hydroxy acids in the formula resurfaces your skin, so that you awaken to a brighter, less wrinkled and smoother complexion. The deeply nourishing emollients found in the cream also soften the skin overnight.

$3.50 for the osmanthus sugar syrup and $4.00 for the dried osmanthus for 100g.
BTW I can't get into your blog, is it locked?Hi Ann,
Thks for ur reply :) Before receiving ur post, i was too eager to rush to yue hwa, bot the sugar syrup & osmanthus. the osmanthus is sold at $4 for 25g. did u get 100g? wow!! or just a typo error? ^^
Btw, i realised the dried osmanthus has got many 杂质. did u rinse them before use? :)
For my blog, i didn't open to public.. cos hasn't update anything :)@CheezyHeart
Aiyoh! They are really suckers! Yes I weight the packet is 100g. Actually the first packet I bought was only $3.00 and when I went there the 2nd time within a week, the price changed to $4.00. I even protest at the cashier why the price changes so fast!! You can take a look at Bakericious's blog, the packet I gave her was 100g.
Don't wash the dried osmanthus, just use straight away. This dessert must be sweet otherwise it won't taste nice. (can also omit the gelatin powder ~ no problem)
Store the unused dried osmanthus in the fridge.- teo ai liNovember 26, 2012 at 3:47 PM
Ann, I just bought a bottle of the sugar osmanthus from Sunlik. Do I need to buy dried flowers separately or can I use use the flowers (drained) from this bottle? Thanks!

You will also want to change the link for the sanction form to reflect NO year or the present year. 2011 is a bit confusing. |

Review: Old Port Deluxe Rum (2011)
Posted by Arctic Wolf on December 1, 2011
The Amrut Distillery is situated in Bangalore, 'the garden city' of India. The distillery sits in a tropical locale 3000 ft above sea level with its water source being the Himalayan Mountains. According to Indian Mythology, when the Gods and the Demons churned the oceans, they used the mountain, Meru, as the churner. As the Ocean was churned, a golden pot sprang up containing the Elixir of Life which was called the "Amrut". This legend of course serves as the inspiration for the naming of the Amrut Distillery.
Amrut Old Port Deluxe Rum is the subject of this review, and it has undergone some changes since I last reviewed it 2 years ago. For Starters, the new bottle is slightly larger and contains slightly more (50 ml) rum. And, according to the importers of this spirit, Purple Valley Imports, the blend has changed to. The rum is continues to be distilled, aged, and bottled at Amrut's facility in Bangalore India using 100% Indian Cane. But the new style is apparently more whisky-like in body and delivery. I am hoping that the new blend still captures that wonderful exotic flavour of Indian Cane which I noted in my first review.
Here is an excerpt from the new review:

New Orleans police have released still shots from a video showing a shooting during a New Orleans Mother's Day parade that left 19 people wounded. A possible suspect is seen fleeing the area shortly after the shooting. / NOPD
Authorities have identified a 19-year-old man as a suspect in a Mother's Day parade shooting in New Orleans that left 19 people injured.
Police Superintendent Ronal Serpas said they are looking for Akein Scott, whom multiple people identified as the shooter.
"The important thing for Akein Scott now is to turn himself in," Serpas said, standing outside of police headquarters on Monday evening.
Serpas said it was too early to say whether Scott was the only shooter. Earlier, police had said that three gunmen were involved and that at least two different weapons were used.
Surveillance video of Sunday's mass shooting shows the crowd dispersing and some falling to the ground before one person in a white T-shirt and dark pants flees.
Of the 10 men, seven women and two 10-year-olds who were wounded, 11 were admitted to Interim LSU Public Hospital. Three remained in critical condition Monday and one was stable, a hospital spokeswoman said. Seven were discharged.
The two children, a boy and a girl, were reported in good condition with graze wounds to the body, police said.
The remaining victims were treated at other hospitals.
Remi Braden, director of public affairs for the New Orleans Police Department, said that many victims suffered graze wounds from ricocheting bullets and that "most of the wounds are not life-threatening."
Earlier, police announced a $10,000 reward for information leading to arrests and indictments in the case.
New Orleans Mayor Mitch Landrieu urged anyone with information on the "very tragic" shooting in the 7th Ward to contact authorities, The Times-Picayune newspaper reported.
"These kinds of incidents are not going to go unanswered," the mayor said Sunday evening. "We're going to be very, very aggressive. There were hundreds of people out there today. So somebody knows who did this and the way we're going to stop the violence together in this city is everybody come together. We really need help. ... We will find them."
Landrieu called for "a community response" at 6 p.m. at the corner of Frenchmen and North Villere streets, where the shooting occurred. "Please come out to show solidarity in protecting our culture and delivering a message to stop the shootings," he said in an email.
The shots were fired at 1:47 p.m. Sunday during what is locally referred to as "a second-line parade.".
The Times-Picayune said there were about 200 people at the event when gunfire erupted.
Second-line parades are loose processions in which people dance down the street, often following a brass band. They can be impromptu or planned and are sometimes described as moving block parties.
The parade included police officers and was about two blocks long, police said.
"When the end of the parade reached North Villere and Frenchmen ... shots were fired from different guns,'' Flot said in a statement. "Immediately after the shooting our officers saw three suspects running from the scene.''
Shermaine Tyler, 32, who lives nearby, told The Times-Picayune that a man collapsed onto her after being shot.
"Me and mom were going to the second line. I told her I didn't want to go because there are always shots at a second line," Tyler said. "And the second I heard shots, I heard shots fired, we ran outside and one man fell in my lap who had been shot."
A social club called The Original Big 7 organized Sunday's event. The group was founded in 1996 at a housing project, according to its MySpace page.
The neighborhood where the shooting happened was a mix of low-income and middle-class row houses, some boarded up. As of last year, the neighborhood's population was about 60% of its level before Hurricane Katrina devastated New Orleans in 2005.

Case | HBS Case Collection | September 2014 (Revised April 2015) Cree Inc.: Introducing the LED Light Bulb John Gourville and Michael Norris Cree, a North Carolina-based maker of light emitting diodes (LEDs), has just introduced its first consumer product—an LED light bulb. It is designed as an energy efficient replacement for the ubiquitous incandescent light bulb. But given that it is an unfamiliar technology and that it costs ten times what an incandescent bulb costs, there are questions about how best to promote adoption and what sales level might be expected.

Case | HBS Case Collection | August 2014 Four Products: Predicting Diffusion (2014) John Gourville An updated "Four Products" case. This 2014 version includes: raw lobster meat, electric-powered Formula One race cars, a 3D printer for cosmetics, and a "smart" tennis racket. These four products form the basis to assess the drivers of new product adoption. In particular, one of the critical tasks in the marketing of new innovations is predicting demand and rates of diffusion for those products. And while one can speculate on the scope and rate of diffusion for any given product, it's helpful to compare and contrast diffusion across products. Doing so allows one to focus on the drivers or product characteristics that influence product diffusion, making one product a star and another a dog. Specifically, looking across products allows one to pick up on things that get lost in discussing a single product. Note that this case often gets used with HBS Note #505-075, "Note on Innovation Diffusion: Rogers' Five Factors," which either can be distributed along with the case or after the case has been taught.

Really like this bra!
This sports bra is comfortable & stays in place with great support for running. I like the hook closure as it's easier to remove. I do think the top of the back closure could be a little softer.

This garment very comfortable to wear
I purchased these sport bras because I had breast cancer. When I had my breasts implants inserted, I had to wear sport bras for a certain length of time. I found this particular sport bra was very comfortable and easy to adjust.

Maholm tries to keep win streak alive vs. Twins
Braves go for sixth straight victory behind veteran left-hander
If there was ever a pitcher who needed a confidence boost, it was Vance Worley before his last start on Friday. The Twins right-hander entered the contest with a sky-high 7.15 ERA over his first eight outings, serving up 66 hits in only 39 innings.
Despite taking a no-decision, Worley ended up turning in the performance he needed, limiting the Red Sox to one unearned run on six hits over six innings.
The 25-year-old will look to build off his best start of the year when he takes the mound on Wednesday as the Twins try to snap a seven-game losing streak in Atlanta against the Braves.
"That's how I pitch," Worley said of his last outing. "It's taken me a lot longer than I wanted to, but I'm glad we got this figured out mechanically. It's going to help me pitch the way I want to pitch, and it's going to help the team a lot."
Worley's manager was also impressed by his night vs. Boston, hoping it translates into future success.
"He was getting ground balls, mixing up his pitches pretty good," Twins manager Ron Gardenhire said. "They weren't all clean innings, but he pitched out of them. So a better performance by him. We'll take that going forward."
Opposing Worley will be Paul Maholm, who has been up and down of late after beginning the season with 20 1/3 shutout innings. The left-hander allowed eight runs in 3 2/3 innings on April 26 against the Tigers, then bounced back over his next two starts, giving up a combined four runs, only to struggle again on May 11 vs. the Giants, surrendering six runs in 4 1/3 innings.
"I didn't make a few pitches and we didn't make a few plays," Maholm said after his start in San Francisco. "We weren't able to get anything on the board. They played better today."
His last time out, Maholm gave up four runs (two earned) in six innings to beat the Dodgers.
Braves: Walden poised to return next week
Currently on the 15-day disabled list, Jordan Walden is confident that his ailing right shoulder will be strong enough for him to rejoin Atlanta's injury-depleted bullpen at some point next week. Walden's confidence grew after he completed a couple of pain-free rounds of long toss on Tuesday afternoon at Turner Field.
"[My shoulder] is strong right now," Walden said. "I played catch today and it was better than it has been almost all season."
Braves manager Fredi Gonzalez said Walden will complete a bullpen session later this week and then make at least one Minor League rehab appearance before being activated.
When Walden returns, he could team with left-hander Luis Avilan and right-handed sidearm reliever Cory Gearrin to serve as closer Craig Kimbrel's top setup men.
Twins: Deduno gets starting nod for Friday
Twins prospect and Triple-A Rochester right-hander Samuel Deduno will start against the Tigers on Friday at Comerica Park.
Deduno likely would have made the club's rotation to start the season after starring for the Dominican Republic in the World Baseball Classic, but he injured his groin in the title game and began the season on the DL. He returned to action on May 5 and posted a 2.70 ERA in three starts with Rochester with 17 strikeouts and 10 walks over 16 2/3 innings.
"He's been throwing good," Twins manager Ron Gardenhire said. "We saw him for the World games and he got hurt but he's back out there striking people out. You're going to get a guy who puts some fear in people's hearts. He can wing it and snap off some stuff. I don't think he's afraid of going against those big boys in Detroit."
Worth noting
• Before this series, the Braves had never hosted the Twins.
• Including Tuesday, when the Braves scored twice in the first, the Twins have allowed their opponents to score the game's first run in 27 of 42 games. The Twins have given up a MLB-leading 49 runs in the first inning this year.

An Ohio man took his love of motorcycles to the grave -- literally.
Billy Standley of Mechanicsville was buried Thursday while sitting atop his 1967 Harley-Davidson motorcycle in a Plexiglas casket, Columbus TV station WBNS reported.
It took five embalmers, three extra burial plots and steel reinforcements to make it happen.
Standley's custom-made casket was pulled to the cemetery by a pickup truck.
He had requested an outdoor funeral so his biker friends could see him off, according to WBNS.
Standley's children said the motorcycle helped him keep a sense of adventure after settling down to raise four kids.

Digital Archivists group meeting notes 4/21/2013
9 people in attendence, Danny moderating introductions, danny discusses the impetus for calling the first meeting,
in attendance: danny N, dany Q, felipe, john, curtis, andrew, miloh, alan, kristina
Reetz Scanner (RS)
We took a look at RS via online videos...
Some details about RS:
Max scanning rate is 1,000 pages per hour.
It can accommodate heavy books easily up to 12 x 9 inches and 3 inches depth.
It cannot accommodate large format scanning.
Reetz offered the DIY bookscanner kit for under $500 (discounted price for Noisebridge)
There are 2 RS models in the Bay already: One at the Internet Archive and one at Ace Monster Toys
Some additional components are necessary including:
probably the lighting (need to check on this)
TO DOs:
Research which items should be purchased and how much it will cost.
Figure out who will assemble hardware.
Develop user guidelines and protocols.
Reserve a member shelf to provide a physical space for the scanner.
Danny already contacted Reetz to order the scanner.
Next makerfaire is the weekend of May 18 and 19, which would be a good time to present or work on assembly (depending).
Prism Scanner (PS)
We then looked at Dany Qs Prism Scanner
Some details about PS:
PS costs more to build and has a larger failure rate than RS (~25%).
It also has a larger footprint (~4-5 feet) than RS.
It may offer a good direction for longer-term investment.
Some questions to consider for future development of PS:
What's the scope of the scanning problem?
How many hours work would it take for all possible books to be scanned by attendant scanners?
How to prevent failure rate/damage to potentially valuable books?
Content & Licensing
danny discussed the lack of availability of valuable rare books.
Mushrooms, Russia and History (1957) is one example and New Alexandria has made the book available digitally.
danny suggested scanning for users according to their own purposes (archival and reference) and to keep discussion of licensing issues in order to find ways to successfully get the content released.
kristina recommended looking at other precedents of online file sharing including the Prelinger Library and Open Library where publications can be scanned for sharing via the web. A few other examples: aaaaarg.org (archive of art, theory, and philosophy texts) and ubuweb (archive of art, music, experimental film and performance recordings)
felipe discussed a project called Sabotage in which academic texts were made available in Brazil.
miloh mentioned that scanner users could also bring ephemeral materials (e.g., notebooks, diaries, newspaper clippings, photos, etc) for scanning on a limited use basis, accessible through encryption keys given out to people from the person who made the scan. These materials could be accessed perhaps further into the future by researchers of all kinds (genealogical, sociological, artistic, etc...)
public domain is discussed, copyright, usage guidelines,
documentation to accompany the scanner is discussed -- where to upload information and what kind of licensing issues exits.
references.. aaaaarg.org
committed to purchase the last of the diybookscanners from d. reetz, and work to get the remaining parts and get it built for use asap. We're also interested in building other models of scanners with different levels of automation and capability.

Last year my wife bought me a fishing-forecaster watch as a gift. Since then, whenever I tell here I'm going to go fishing, she asks me what the success forecast is according to the watch. So far, though I'll admit to keeping less than stellar records on the matter, the watch seems to be pretty darn accurate – plus it keeps time too.
So about two months ago, my bride and I made one of our turnaround trips up to Big Bear.
We arrived late Sunday night and spent the next morning cleaning, maintaining and generally getting the vacation home ready for the impending change from Summer to Winter. By mid-afternoon, I was done with mops, brooms and the other assorted instruments of torture that go with house cleaning.
I told my wife I wanted to go fishing.She, naturally, asked what the watch forecasted.
Much to my delight, four-out-of-four little fishy symbols flashed on the screen above the predicted best fishing time of 6:00 pm.
Then, to my further delight, she asked me if she could go too; maybe we could make a date out of it; take a simple picnic dinner and eat it lakeside.
I wondered, ever so briefly, if I had heard her right or if I was feeling the effects from mixing the bleach and ammonia cleaners together again.
Turns out my hearing was just fine and all at once, my heart melted again for the red-headed beauty standing across from me.
I think we broke some sort of human-speed record getting cleaned up and over to the local bait shop where I could pick up a supply of nightcrawlers, which I reckoned would give her the best shot at actually catching something.
Now, she had never been inside Big Bear Sporting Goods, though I have told her about it many times. So while the guy behind the counter and I counted out nightcrawlers, she went…shopping.
Lots of thoughts went through my mind at that moment, but once the panic subsided I took solace in the fact that my beloved did not get a full dose of the shopping gene. She did, however, get the gene for spotting a bargain and about ten minutes later we walked out with a supply of worms, a new collapsible net and a pair of stylish, polarized shades offsetting her auburn locks.
We then drove over to Boulder Bay where we had a pleasant, if not simple, al fresco dinner.
Then, as the magic hour, according to the watch, approached I rigged up a pair of Penrod Extreme rods, baited them up with some fat and sassy nightcrawlers and started fishing.
Sure enough, we started getting hits almost immediately.
I brought in a couple of small Bass right away but try as she might, my wife could not land a single fish. I was starting to worry that she would be discouraged, hate fishing and never want to try it again.
Foolish me.
She was having a great time trying to learn the subtly art of angling. Each take was a new challenge and opportunity to her to refine and polish her skills. Each bite was met with as much enthusiasm as if she had already landed a record fish.
As dusk dissolved into full darkness and we packed up to go home, I knew she was "hooked.
So…when the opportunity presented itself for us to again make a turnaround up to Big Bear, I already knew part of our time would be spent fishing.
Sure enough, on our next trip up the hill, she asked me if WE were going to go fishing. We consulted "the watch", found out that the forecasted time would fit nicely into our schedule and planned accordingly.
This time we were rewarded with an achingly beautiful landscape and an ideal Fall afternoon with temps in the low 70's and a slight breeze.
It was the kind of sight and experience that takes permanent residence in the memory and makes you smile just thinking about it.
We walked over to the same spot we had tried previously, rigged our gear the same way as last time and began fishing.
Only, we did not get immediate strikes. We fished for an hour without so much as a nibble. We fished for an hour and a half with not so much as a slight bite.
Alas, all my hard work was on the edge of ruin.
The long shadows of the afternoon gave way to deeper shadows of dusk, but still no hits.
Finally, we decided to call it a day.
I was convinced though that I could still coax one hit out of the expedition, so while I broke down my pole I encouraged her to cast just one more time to the edge of a weed mat close to shore.
She did. Mostly to appease me but perhaps with that same streak of optimism I had seen last time. And then her attention was caught by the perky little Pug dog that was taking its owner for a walk on the path behind us.
As she talked to the snorting, little fuzz ball who was hoping to score some doggie snack from a stranger, I saw her bobber dip.
Then it dipped again. Then it dipped yet a third time.
I told her to set the hook. Without missing a beat, she did and I immediately knew she was tied on to a Carp.
The questions and brief looks of panic flew as I coached her on the nuances of fighting a big fish on a little pole. She kept the rod tip high, the drag loose and reeled every time I told her to.
She screamed a little when the drag starting buzzing but I told her that was normal and to wait it out before reeling in.
I secretly prayed that the Carp would not make a blazing run toward the weeds. It didn't. It zigged and zagged but stayed out in relatively open water. It broke the surface a few times and the sight of the large, bronze fin was plenty of motivation for my wife to keep putting the pressure on.
Finally, she managed to turn the Carp and bring it to net. It was the biggest fish she had ever caught and the perfect ending to a perfect day.
Like I said, it was the kind of sight and experience that takes permanent residence in the memory and makes you smile just thinking about it.
Right then and there I decided that I am really fond of that watch.
And I also love this addiction called Big Bear Fishing.
2 Responses to "WATCH THIS"
Wow. Wish I could get my wife out fishin with me. So Lucky!

7/4/13 Charlie Sheen Pleads to Stop Child Support
Find me on Facebook: Jake Emily Poyet Webb
Thursday, July 4, 2013
A guy says he has proof of Alex Rodriguez's steroid use and he's holding the evidence ransom -- for $1 million. According to TMZ, Porter Fischer -- an ex-employee at the drug clinic where A-Rod and other major leaguers allegedly got their juice -- met with baseball execs on Tuesday. His attorney says he has records on more than 100 ballplayers, including Rodriguez, but he's not going to turn them over out of the goodness of his heart. Fischer is reportedly holding out for at least seven figures.
Charlie Sheen may have a decent point here -- he says Brooke Mueller doesn't need child support while she's in rehab and Denise Richards is taking care of their kids. Charlie is asking a California judge to cancel Brooke's $55,000 monthly check. He believes that she's using the money to pay for her latest rehab stint, and since he's already shelled out for a couple of those, he shouldn't be on the hook again. Meanwhile, he's offered to boost Denise's child support while she watches the twins, but she turned him down. Brooke entered rehab last month and will likely be out in August.
Amanda Bynes claims she recently underwent plastic surgery to fix "webbing" between her eyes now says she adores going under the knife. She says, quote, "I Love Surgery. I Plan On Having Surgery On My Whole Face Straight Up."
7/3/13 Robert Pattinson's New Flame
Find me on Facebook: Jake Emily Poyet Webb
Wednesday, July 3, 2013
ROBERT PATTINSON is reportedly dating ELVIS PRESLEY'S granddaughter RILEY KEOUGH. And KRISTEN STEWART is NOT happy about it . . . because she introduced them. A source says, quote, "She flew off the handle when she found out. She's told Rob via friends she feels violated."
It's a fact that when you get in the habit of eating healthy food, your body loses its tolerance for CRAP. JENNIFER ANISTON found that out when she and fiancé JUSTIN THEROUX hit McDonald's recently. She says, quote, "Justin and I were on a road trip and we were so hungry. The only thing around was McDonald's. I think I ordered a Big Mac. Wow, my body did not react well to that! It was like putting gasoline in a purified system. I am always trying to eat organic and natural foods, so that just made my stomach turn and made me feel terrible. And I think what you put in your body, as well as stress, is reflected in the quality of your skin."
MATTHEW PERRY opens up about his struggles with addiction in the new issue of "People" magazine. He says, quote, "I was on 'Friends' from age 24 to 34. I was in the white-hot flame of fame . . . From an outsider's perspective, it would seem like I had it all. It was actually a very lonely time for me because I was suffering from alcoholism." He adds, quote, "I was never high at work. I was painfully hung over. Then eventually things got so bad I couldn't hide it and everybody knew."
7/2/13 Amanda Bynes Gets Crazier
Find me on Facebook: Jake Emily Poyet Webb
Tuesday, July 2, 2013
ALICIA SILVERSTONE has started a breast milk SHARING service for vegan moms who can't produce enough of their own. It's called Kind Mama Milk Share, and she's setting it up through her website. She says, quote, "Because we are a community of beautiful souls who recognize the importance of food as health, I say we help support those mamas and babies who need a hand during one of the most important times in their lives."
For Father's Day, KIM KARDASHIAN gave KANYE WEST a pair of computer mice autographed by Apple co-founders STEVE JOBS and STEVE WOZNIAK. Which is fitting since Kanye recently proclaimed himself the Steve Jobs of, quote, "Internet, downtown, fashion, culture. Period."
PIERCE BROSNAN'S 41-year-old daughter Charlotte has died of ovarian cancer. It's the same disease that killed Charlotte's mother and Pierce's first wife Cassandra back in 1991. Cassandra's mother also died of ovarian cancer.
Just so you know, Amanda Bynes now says someone's been invading her head. She says, quote, "I Want A Million Dollars A Year For Illegally Having My Mind Read And Privacy Stolen."
Everyone's favorite Pornstar Teen Mom, FARRAH ABRAHAM has entered an outpatient rehab program to deal with her alcohol abuse. She'll undergo 10 days of intensive counseling.

SCANDAL! PETA named KRISTEN BELL and DAX SHEPARD this year's Sexiest Vegetarians. Unfortunately, Dax eats CHICKEN. He released a statement saying, quote, "Sadly I can't accept in good conscience because I eat chicken. I was vegan for a year, but that ended 6 months ago."
KRIS JENNER has confirmed rumors that BRUCE JENNER has been spending time at his own place . . . but she says it's all good. She claims they're not splitting up, Bruce just needs a little space because KIM KARDASHIAN, KANYE WEST and their new baby North have moved in. Kris told "Access Hollywood", quote, "We got a place out at the beach for him to get away. It does get a little congested in that house." She added, quote, "He sleeps at home, he is mostly sleeping at home."
JADEN SMITH and KYLIE JENNER have denied they're dating . . . but the paparazzi caught them HOLDING HANDS while leaving a movie theater on Wednesday night.
It wasn't such a good day for PAULA DEEN. She was dropped by Target, Novo Nordisk, Home Depot, Wal-Mart and QVC.

Find me on Facebook: Jake Emily Poyet Webb
Thursday, June 27, 2013

JUSTIN BIEBER was recently spotted getting cozy with some chick. Well, it turns out she's a MARRIED chick. Her name is Jordan Ozuna and she's a model and former Hooters waitress. And she's married to a guy in the Coast Guard.
OPRAH tops this year's "Forbes" list of the 100 Most Powerful Celebrities, which measures fame in a variety of categories. Meanwhile, MADONNA was the top earner of the year with $125 million . . . and Will Smith, Jennifer Aniston, and Sandra Bullock are considered the most "marketable."
Courteney Cox is officially dating her "Cougar Town" costar Brian Van Holt. Sources say they've been going out for about six months now. The source adds that Cox is more comfortable taking her relationship with Van Holt out in the open now that she is officially divorced from David Arquette.
