Obama Says No, for Now, to Canada Pipeline
The Obama administration rejected the construction of the Keystone XL oil pipeline from Canada to the Gulf of Mexico, saying a congressionally imposed deadline didn't allow enough time to review the project's environmental impact. President Barack Obama said the decision, which put the pipeline on hold following a review that began in 2008, "is not a judgment on the merits of the pipeline" and criticized next month's deadline as "arbitrary." The administration suggested that the pipeline's builder, TransCanada Corp., could reapply. WSJ's Peter Landers tells us what's next for the Keystone Pipeline. Download MP3

Doctor Who?He walks a lonely road todayDoctor Who?9 years ago in Free Verse More Like This
And every day before
He is the wanderer,
The man without a home,
The lonely God.
Every day a new adventure
A new horizon to see.
Companions come, companions go
But they don't know his lonliness
But he moves on regardless.
The oncoming storm the Daleks shout,
But the Doctor doesn't care about that.
He is unafraid of them and clever,
He is witty and outsmarts us all;
But a Curse stops him being remembered.

He started yelling and kicking. He lifted himself up and walked to the room she used to sleep in. His brain could not control his body anymore. He kneeled next to the bed and rested his head on the soft blanket. Tears were bathing his face. His voice broke out and he was sobbing.
The Doctor raised his head and looked to the left. There she was. A rusty, foggy ghost image of Rose.
"No!" he yelled and buried his face back into the covers of the bed.
"Doctor, don't cry," Rose almost whispered. "I'm here."
"It's impossible. I used the last of the breach. I'm dreaming." He closed his eyes tightly, and tears fell from his face.
"You aren't. I found the last opening this time."
"THIS time," the Doctor chuckled.

I stood there, weeping in my soul
and yet rejoicing for your bliss.
I pray you did not hear the mighty cry
that filled me to the core,
that, with a thousand voices, told you: "Rose,
no man loves you more than I!"
O, how I wish I could have spoken true -
how much I need you by my side.
'The lonely angel' someone once me called,
and yet, the angel is not me, it's you.
In all my life, I never truly lived
until the day that I met you.
You took these hardened hearts of mine
and taught them how to laugh, to love, forgive.
Of all these thoughts I could not speak a word,
it would have made you choose not him - but me.
Though all the stars will sing my love
my mortal ears, it never shall be heard.
You always knew there can be no "Forever"
for us, timelord and an earthen child.
We both know you belong with him
not bound be my life's endless tether.
You have so much to do, to see
that I can never give.

Im running and fleeing from all of their demons
Not for fear or despair but a last act of mercy
Finally I turn. I take a stand. I fight.
Those that once were become undone
And still I believe, I still believe
That you know who I am
Im standing tall and the sun is on the horizon.
Together we watch the world move around us
I feel the turn of the universe
I taste each breath of air consumed.
I hear the pulse of life
And still I wander
And wonder if you really see me or
If you even know who I am
Endless darkness, everlasting light
Sleepless nights, unpredictable plights
The gift and the curse of knowing Nothing and Everything
All occurs from the raging storm
That which is ice and fire and light
That which spills blood and destroys the innocent
That which gives life and allows fate and love to collide
Do you see what I can see?
Of myself I know
Im so lost, so far from home
Twisting and writhing in the chains of my mind

The Supreme Court in the US state of California has refused to halt the resume of same-sex marriages in the state, following the US Supreme Court's ruling last month, and a petition filed challenging it.
At the end of last week, supporters of California's Proposition 8 filed a petition to the state Supreme Court challenging the recent resume of same-sex wedding ceremonies.
Now the Supreme Court of California has refused to hold up the petition from ProtectMarriage, which originally sponsored the case against equal marriages.
The US Supreme Court specifically ruled that the ProtectMarriage had "no standing" to pursue an appeal of the 9th Circuit's decision to strike down the ban after Governor Jerry Brown and Attorney General Kamala Harris declined to defend it.
In the petition filed on Friday by the organisation, it argued that Prop 8 technically should remain law because the Supreme Court did not directly rule on the constitutionality of same-sex marriages, in the case.
"The Ninth Circuit's decision in Perry has been vacated," The petition read, "hence there is no appellate decision holding that Proposition 8 is unconstitutional."
The petition filed in the state Supreme Court also argued that the original lawsuit named only the county clerks of Los Angeles and Alameda counties, and that the ruling should not reach the other 56 county clerks.
"The Legislature has not imbued the State Registrar with supervisory authority or control over county clerks issuing marriage licenses," the petition continued.

I ran across this at an antique mall over the weekend. Does anyone know what it is?
14 thoughts on "Name that Toy!"
It looks like it might be from Jace and the Wheeled Warriors. Gobots, maybe?
Go-Bot Command Center
I believe it is a GoBot transport vehicle, if I recall
Yeah, Go-Bots…the poor kid's Transformers. I never had the Command Center but had a few figures and they were always the first to die at the hands of Optimus and his posse.
This should have been a forum post, especially since it's such an easy one to answer.
Gobots don't deserve the hate they recieve. The standard gobot toys are way higher quality than the comparable transformer minicars. Plus, unlike any transformer ever made, they fit in well with one's matchbox cars, allowing them to truly be robots in disguise.
Even most of the supergobots had better articulation than transformers & didn't have the trailerspace problem (all gobots parts & accessories had a place in both robot & vehicle modes). -
I always had more Go Bots than Transformers because they were cheaper, this was the ultimate Go Bots toy!
I never had this, but I had the ship core of the gobots combiner suit thing (which was rather useless without any suits to go with it, but… *shrug*).
I had a fairly even mix of transformers, gobots (no super gobots though, fortunately), and cheapo/generic ones from the local drug store. Out of all of those, the single highest quality one (well… 6…) was a gobot. The gobot combiner "puzzler". That guy was a thousand times better than any transformers combiner of the time (and many since). Solid, well proportioned, comparatively high posability, and no kibble to get lost (the oversized hands, head, etc were all integral parts of each smaller robot).
The individual gobots were also of high quality, equal to or better than mst gobots & most transformers of the day. Their size was a bit off though. It was about twice as large as the standard gobots & TF minicars, but only about 2/3 as large as the standard transformers & super gobots. -
Before I saw the comments it reminded me of Space 1999. I had neither Gobots or Transformers.
@Drahken – Good apology for the Go-Bots. I completely agree.
I had this and LOVED it! http://toyriffic.blogspot.com/2010/03/yestertoys-haters-gonna-hate-edition.html
How much were they asking for it? I would love to reacquire a decent Command Center someday.
@Flack – did you buy it? did you not know what it was or were u just testing the rest of us?
Ah yes, that does look familiar.
I actually didn't know. The price tag simply said "spaceship – $20″. I don't know enough about it to know if it's complete or not.
Had this baby. As for Go-Bots vs. Transformers I am a Go-Bot fan. Challenge of The Go-Bots aired prior to Transformers in Canada and I had seen every episode before seeing any Transformers. Go-Bots Mini vehicles were always better than the Mini Transformers and I stand by that claim.
The Go-Bots never released a true animated version of their toys to my knowledge and the toys were not exactly like what you had on TV.
Sad but true. Great memories..

June 26, 2007
The Wilson Quarterly describes itself as an international review surveying the latest thinking in the humanities. The current (spring) issue features an article that focuses on mathematician Leonhard Euler, born 300 years ago.
Written by New York author and commentator John Derbyshire, " Euler's Constancy" presents a satisfying and eye-opening portrait of Euler's life and mathematics. The article lends credence to the case that while Euler "is seldom remembered as one of the Enlightenment greats...he should be." Euler's discoveries, Derbyshire notes, "changed the course of mathematics forever; and ...his ideas continue to resonate in classrooms and laboratories."
Derbyshire's 2003 book Prime Obsession: Bernhard Riemann and the Greatest Unsolved Problem in Mathematics was awarded the MAA's Euler Book Prize.
Mathematicians often name Archimedes, Isaac Newton, and Carl Friedrich Gauss as the elite of mathematics. In a poem that ran in Mathematics Magazine in 1997, Charlie Marion and William Dunham insisted on adding Euler to that pantheon of greats. Derbyshire makes it clear in just six pages that he agrees. Euler was responsible for a host of important mathematical advances in a wide variety of fields. And his formula linking five of the most important numbers (0, 1, i, e, and π) and three key operations (addition, multiplication, and exponentiation) in mathematics is sometimes described as the most beautiful in mathematics.
The prolific Euler was a mathematician of towering genius, Derbyshire concludes. He also " lived nobly, calmly, cheerfully, and well."
"Perhaps his unassuming nature is one reason that the nonmathematical public does not better know his name, " Derbyshire says. "Let us hope this year's tercentenary celebrations will put matters right"

Edit CompanyPopular Teas from 52teas
See All 476 TeasRecent Tasting Notes
I may have steeped this too long for the flavors to come through in the way that they were meant to, so I will hold off rating it until I can do it the way it was intended. Hubby and I have been steeping honeybush lately for much longer times, because we'd read that it generally tastes better the longer you steep it. We'd found that steeping it for 10 minutes produced a flavor we really like, but when we did that with this blend, the chocolate and other flavors all but disappeared. I was quite disappointed, understandably, so we'll try again, with the measly leaf we have left (one of the reasons I wasn't in favor of Frank's decision not to offer the 2 oz. packages anymore), to get the correct flavor out of it.
When I finally got the bag opened (the crimping was REALLY close to the seal, and I'm not quite awake yet :P), the smell of the dry leaf was amazing…smelled just like caramel pecan.
Prepared, I'm not tasting cheesecase. I taste the caramel, which is nice and sweet. I taste the oolong, which is, admittedly, not my favorite base. I'm not sure what I'm tasting, actually. I've never had roasted mate before.
So, everything must be blending together. This was a short steep time for me at 2:30, so next time, I'll try longer.
I think this is getting better as it cools. Also, I REALLY need to figure out how many oz this mug holds. I have no idea.
The problem I've had with some of Frank's previous pumpkin teas is that they're short on actual pumpkin flavour and overdose on cinnamon to compensate. This blend neatly avoids that pitfall and I can clearly taste the smooth, slightly sweet and nutty flavour of the pumpkin. Other people have complained about too much cardamom and cloves in this blend but I personally prefer more cardamom in my chais and I think cloves and pumpkin are a fantastic combination. I'm just drinking it plain right now but I could see this being a great latte as well. Much love.
'Here's Hoping' Teabox Round #4 – Tea #7
This reminds me of the Malt Yerba Mate blend that 52Teas has. I don't think it has a ton of chocolate flavor, but there are hints that remind me of malted chocolate. Not the best chocolate tea but not terrible. (I hope some of the new 52Teas blends use cocoa shells in their chocolate blends.) I always love honeybush as a caffeine free option at night though. It seems like 52Teas is really one of the only companies using honeybush. The honeybush is fine on its own anyway, so I don't mind that the chocolate isn't the best.
Not sure what happened with this one, but it smells like cough syrup to me and tastes like it too. The tea itself is very pretty with whole cranberries and nice size chunks of pineapple I think. I so wanted to like this one, but I don't think its for me. Sad too because I bought a couple packs of it because I figured I would love it. Maybe I screwed up the steeping but I can't say I'll be brave enough to try it again. Oh well!
I want the man equivalent of this tea. Dark, smooth, and rich. Perfect with some milk and honey. The base tea gives it such a nice depth and isn't outshone by the spices at all. The spice blend used is perfect, I love that it isn't overwhelmingly cinnamon or clove.
I figured it was about time to change my icon – Go 'nucks! ;)
I was expecting something a bit sweeter and more cookie-like, to be honest. LiberTeas was correct in saying this comes across as more like a mild chai, I'd say. The most noticeable flavour is the ginger although it's relatively low key compared to how it's been in other blends. There's also a nice little citrus-orange undertone with a hint of cinnamon. As the tea cools it develops a touch of sweetness, but it's nothing that really brings to mind 'cookies'. Still on it's own it's a quite a warm, pleasent tea.
I love confusing and interesting teas. This one certainly fits the bill. The taste is like salty bar nuts, and I really like it! Even I would do a double take at that sentence but trust me, there's something about the salty nut mouthfeel in a warm drink that is super comforting. The aftertaste has a floral note which gives it some lightness. The combo really works and gives it some complexity that genmaicha doesn't always have.
Monthly TTB. I keep forgetting to add that. It gets hard to remember when I'm drinking a cuppa and feeding my daughter at the same time while trying to write a note. And she likes to try and grab my phone with her food covered fingers.
Anyway. The smell of the dry leaves reminds me of an apple pie you get in a grocery store and not a homemade pie. Or at least not the pies my mom or I make. Dark amber color. Not the best apple pie tea I've had (I think Indigo is better). It's light but still has good flavor. Just not the pie flavor I think of when thinking of apple pie. I'm not a fan of store bought pies so that's probably why I'm not a big fan of this tea.
Generally I have found that I love the idea of grapefruit teas, but not the execution. Most grapefruit teas are tart or bitter, which reminds me of white grapefruit. I'm a huge fan of sweet red grapefruit, not white. This is the first tea I've tried that reminds me of red grapefruit. The brown sugar flavor really makes this delicious. I taste grapefruit and brown sugar. And, the tea is so creamy. I wish I had more of this one.
Flavors: Brown Sugar, Grapefruit
The hubby and I were looking for something to sip while we wrestled with the online tax monster. This one seemed just the thing. We steeped it twice, as follows:
1st – 170°, one minute, 16 oz. water, two perfect teaspoons of tea
2nd – 180°, one and a half minutes
Both steeps were sweetened with a little clover honey (I prefer wildflower, but clover is generally more accessible, and cheaper besides). The clover taste, to my pleasant surprise, did not overpower the flavor of the apples or the tea, although it did take away some of the tartness that I remember this tea having. A very nice apple blend, although I would have preferred a sharper apple flavor (more like a Braeburn or a Pink Lady than a Gala or Red Delicious). I like my apples to bite back. :) The base tea was a sweet hay undertone, with just a hint of something floral to round it out. Lovely!
Thanks you Marzipan for giving me a sample of this tea to try. It smells like fruit punch or maybe Kool-Aid. Flavour-wise, I'm getting more grape than cranberry from this tea but the white tea base goes well with both these flavours.
It was odd that in the middle of my quest for the best chocolate tea that this was offered by 52 Teas….I'd never ordered with them and hey, chocolate! So it was ordered. There were several things I really liked about 52 Teas: The shipping is reasonable for a small amount of tea, which will actually make me look at their offerings closer in the future. Also, their packaging in small amounts is ideal, so you can try without the fear of adding to your tea stash too much. The packaging itself is attractive and well thought out which I also appreciate. On to the tea….
When I opened the packet, the immediate smell was of cacao nib. The problem with cacao nib is that there is a sour-like smell that comes with them that my nose immediately picks up on and sends straight into the flavor profile. After a 3 minute steep I found that this was the case. The black tea used is nondescript in this blend…it almost reminds me of the base that Lupicia uses for their Au Chocolat blend. There's no astringency, but the mouthfeel of the tea is rather flat. The marshmallow root adds a touch of vanilla-esque sweetness to the blend, but it doesn't really have all that much to work with. I did take this with milk, and it did bring out the "silk" that is in the title, but I think there are much better chocolate teas to be had out there. What was attempted by Black Silk chocolate Milk Qu Hao is obvious in the cup, but somehow it seems to fall short of it's goal for me. I will try again with a longer steep and update this review in the very near future.
Flavors: Cacao, Marshmallow, Sour
I threw this in my cart the last time I was ordering from 52Teas. I will admit, I am not a chocolate fan. I figured if I didn't like it, the twins would.
Yeah . . . .I'm not sharing. . . . and I've already ordered more!
Here is my full review. .
Flavors: Cake, Chocolate, Smooth
Not My Cup Of Tea #5
So the last week or so has been insane and the TTB has been sitting in the corner of my kitchen being ignored and therefore mistreated and now I'm on an epic mission to drink the rest of the teas that interest me in the next 2-3 days so I can get it back out and on the road.
This was a brand new, unopened bag in the box which filled me with a little bit of excitement… new tea!! Opening the bag, I was immediately greeted by an amazing scent of kiwi and a touch of cake which made me even more excited!! Sipping this tea I'm actually pretty impressed, the kiwi, biscuit and creaminess are all present and since I grew up eating kiwi and am partial to the taste this reminded me a little bit of eating kiwi pavlova!! Yum!!
