This is the first lip plumper I've ever tried and I am pleasantly surprised.I didn't expect this (or any other lip gloss) to plump my lips but it actually does!

I have this in Techno Buff. It stings more than a typical plumping gloss, but the stinging goes away in about 10 minutes. Nice increase in fullness and gives my lips more color due to the irritation--but it's a great color, so that's okay. I do have to keep this gloss away from the edges of my lips to avoid redness on the skin, but lipliner seems to take care of that proble. The container is on the small side, but really, how often do you make it through an entire tube of gloss? I like that it has a brush rather than a doe-foot applicator, since that makes precision application easier. Overall, I was pleasantly surprised by this product.

I was wondering if any of you girls noticed deeper lip creases after using this? I am not sure if mine are a result of the lip plump because i never noticed i had such deep lines on my lips before...

I find that this lip plumping gloss is very effective within seconds. The tingly sensation is not so pleasant but it goes away pretty fast and leaves you with nice plump lips. I would buy this product again.

I wear this daily because I love how it brings out my lip color, giving them a beautiful flushed look. It's also super glossy and very slightly plumps your lips. I like wearing this more than wearing actual colored lipgloss!

I've tried a few lip plumpers, and I'd have to say this is the best in terms of overall effect. There aren't exactly any miracle workers, at least that I'm aware of. A bit sticky though, I usually put it on before I go out while I'm putting on the rest of my makeup, then I wipe it off with a tissue, then put some vaseline on my lips. just cause I can't handle that super lip-glossy-feel. It does turn your lips a bit pinkish-red too.

I stil am searching for my hg lip plumper because sadly this was not it! I felt the stinging and saw a slight plumping effect, but not much.

I read the reviews and decided to test this. Went to the mall, applied from a tester (the store opened a brand new one for me because there was no tester!). It stings like M.A.D yep, the edges of my lip were too irritated. Any ways, I left it on and went around the mall to shop and see if it last till end of my shopping trip. IT DID NOT. I def. don't think it does anything except for feels like chilli on your lips. Within 30-35mins the gloss no longer exist, lip edges were still pinkish, no plump effect. Pure waste....

A little definitely goes a long way! After about 5 seconds, it starts to sting and plump up your lips. And it really does sting!! And this can be quite distracting and make you talk funny for a while. My advice would be not to apply it right to the edges of your lips, as if it touches the skin around your lips, it will make that swell too, making a sort of swollen white line, and then it's really obvious that you've used a lip plumper. I just apply it to the middle bit of my lips and I think it looks more natural. In terms of how much it works, I'd say it noticably plumps up your lips and lasts for about an hour. After that, I don't think that it has such a good effect if you reapply cos it seems like your lips have got a bit immune to it or something! Or maybe it just doesn't sting as much. But the first application is definitely noticable, if you're brave enough!

Manning, SC 29102
(803) 435-2114
I am a former graduate of Laurence Manning Academy (having attended there 13 years), and have successfully attended a 4 year university and achieved a 4.0, and currently applying to a masters program. I feel that the Honors program at LMA prepared me for my future academic endeavors alongside my will to succeed. I feel that in a sense, you can choose your future at LMA, as well as any other school, and just get by with taking "easy classes". I encourage all parents to push their students to challenge themselves as to be best prepared for college.
I agree with many of the views of the previous post. My husband and I considered other schools and we decided to go with Laurence Manning. I have been impressed with administration and Dr. Jordan. I do hope there is continuous growth within the school but not at the expense of class size. Public school classrooms are continuing to grow in size with classes of 25 - 30. This is too many to have in one classroom to be effective in engaging students. There are pros and cons to all schools but right now this is the best fit for our family.
I am very pleased with the academic progress of my children. My children entered under the leadership of Dr. Jordan and I am very pleased with what I continue to see. There is continuous growth in class size. Curriculum is on track with state guidelines. Chapel is every Wednesday. Students get the opportunity to have daily prayer time which is led by their teacher. Children are allowed to pray if they would like to. Sports are offered at all ages. I am hopeful that LMA will continue to proved academic excellence for many years to come!
My twin boys were enrolled in LMA from K-4 thru 7th grade. The biggest mistake I ever made was to transfer them to school distict #2 in Sumter SC.Unfortunately,They neither one went on to graduate!While at LMA I never had such serious problems as we did in public school.Mr.Nally and the rest of the staff at LMA were always ready and available to help when needed.They always made my boys feel loved and welcome.As for my 9 year old little girl,she will graduate from LMA in 2019! That's that!!!She is an Honor Roll student just like her brothers were when at LMA!!!!
Our Son transfered to LMA his Junior year. Coming from a 4A Public High School, I must admit, this was a very big change for him. LMA students and staff have accepted our son with open arms. The teachers are open to parent communication and they promote e-mail correndspondence. I'ts been a blessing to know our son is surrounded by Christian people at LMA. Mr. Spencer Jordan - Headmaster, really has a heart for 'People Building'; thanks for building up our son! So far, LMA has been a postive and stress free enviroment for our family. We've only been in attendance for two months, but I can't wait to see how things work out for the Spring.
This school provides students with a warm and friendly enviornment. The boys basketball program however leaves alot to be desired.
LMA has been a great experience for our family, it is a safe christian, family oriented school. The parental support is tremedous.I have to say the fields and gym are packed with parents and students during any event. As far as fund-raisers are concerned they are necessary improve the school, and help keep cost down to make it affordable. Faculty and staff are awesome they really welcome you with open arms. GO CATS
We have been at LMA for four years, and I have two children that attended. It is a safe, Christian school, with an outstanding faculty and administration. I recommend this school with all my heart. My children love going to school and I love knowing that they are getting a great education there. I know sometimes it seems like a lot of homework for little ones, but I know it is worth it. Along with a great education, LMA has outstanding extracurricular activities and many fun events. This is a family environment that I hope all l parents and children have the opportunity to experience.
This school wa an awful experience for my children. For the most part the kids have all grown up together and have already formed their cliques. They are snobbish to 'outsiders'. The parents are worse than the students. Mr. Nalley, the Headmaster, only has one concern and that is fundraising for the new high school building. The elementary teachers were rude and gave out more homework than the high school teachers did. Overall it was not a good experience.
LMA is an awesome school. We have a great faculty at Laurence Manning Academy.
Laurence Manning is the best school I ever went to. The small classes make you feel like you are more of a focus and chapel on Wednesday was a great thing to have in a school. They are so much more personal and it's like a big family out there because everyone knows everyone which is a very uncommon thing in schools. I can't wait to come back. Plus the school gets the kids involved in charity events which is a great lesson to teach. Their teaching goes beyond the class or subject. I can personally say I have learned many of my life lessons from the administration and staff.
laurence manning was really....... fun. i have been there since 1st grade, but i haven't graduated from there yet.. and the teachers are so cool.
This school is awesome no one is singled out and everyne is accepted . I have been going to school here for 9 years from K-4 and i wouldnt wanna go anywhere else .
former student
I graduated from Laurence Manning in May of 2004 also. I loved this school. I went there since 4th grade and I loved my teachers, friends, and everything else I took from this school. The teachers are not just your teachers, they are your friends and both Mr. Nalley and the teachers care about you, in school and in life! I am proud to say I went to Laurence Manning and I will tell you parents that you should send your kids here! I love Laurence Manning Academy - GO SWAMPCATS!
former student
I graduated from LMA in May 2004. I absolutely loved LMA! Mr. Nalley is def. different than most principles I know. He likes to get involoved with student activites and he tries to understand the students. HE MAKES SCHOOL FUN! The teachers at LMA can be described in one word - AMAZING! They dedicate their time to helping students achieve the students goal. In other words, LMA is a great school to go to and reccommend all parents to send their children there. When I am asked what school I graduated from I am extremely proud to say I graduated from LMA because this school taught me so many things that I can apply to real life experiences!
This school is the greatest school ever and it has great education and i would send a child here in a heart beat- it feels like a home and a big familly everyone is so nice- i love laurence manning academy-- go cats.
This is the first year my chidren have attended a private schoool. Coming from the public schools of sc I have to say we have found an 'angel' in our midst. The teachers and staff are awesome. The children that attend lma are very respectful and well mannered. Thank you Laurence-Manning!
This school has a good christian environment with skilled caring teachers.

In Wilson v. San Luis Obispo County Democratic Central Committee, 2011 DJDAR 2416 (2011), the California Court of Appeal for the Second District decided an interesting fee case arising from a political dispute.
The plaintiff in the Wilson case was an active member in the San Luis Obispo Democratic Committee. She was removed from her position after a negative vote of the other Committee members.
After being removed from office, she petitioned the Superior Court, seeking a writ of mandate ordering her reinstatement. The writ also sought to remove Committee members who allegedly were not properly elected to office. The trial court denied the petition, and the Committee moved for their attorney fees incurred pursuant to Code of Civil Procedure Section 1021.5. The fee request totaled $102,215. The trial court denied the fee petition in its entirety.

- Posted Jan 18, 2014
The hotel location was excellent. It was a 2-minute walk to the beach. The exterior of the hotel was quite nice. It was surrounded by palm trees and had a nice garden. The service wasn't up to the mark. A family owns the place. So, they don't really interfere and offer good services. The room was quite nice and the food served was homely.More » « Less

I understand that. However, what you are failing to understand is that turn rate is dictated by several factors (engines, ship's inherit turn rate, inertia, impulse speed, consoles, etc). Cruisers have a lower inertia (lower impulse speed) and a lower turn rate. Since the modifiers provided by equipment (and probably inertia and impulse speed) are from percentages, a lower numerical value with have a lower gain from the modifiers with percentages.
It is not a straight 2x turn rate. Your Chimera has a higher turn rate value and higher inertia (probably), the latter case means that your Chimera's impulse speed is higher.
It's very easy to test this.
Go to the Sol System (not sector space). Set your power settings to something like Offensive or Defensive mode. Go at your fastest speed without going into max impulse and check your character sheet (movement tab). It should tell what your max impulse speed and turn rate is (without diverting all power to your engines).
Switch to Speed mode, which will set your engine power to 100. You'll now see your turn rate and impulse speed increase.
For instance, my Tactical Escort Retrofit, at 52/30 engine power, has an impulse speed of 28.10 and a turn rate of 42.6. If I switch to an engine power of 100, my impulse speed goes 32 and turn rate of greater than 45 (can't remember off the top of my head).
Inertia affect your turn rate and your speed, and they are additional modifiers. Period. Lower inertia has a lower speed and turn rate. Higher inertia has a higher speed and turn rate. Unfortunately, I have yet to find any information on what the percentage is exactly.
But my example of 50% is assuming you have consoles to help you increase your turn rate. In that case, the math is correct. 6 + 50% = 9. 14 + 50% = 21. But, because of your ships inertia and impulse speed, the actual turn rate will be different.

New Think Creative's Miami International Film Festival Seminar Reveals the Secrets to Making FilmDistrict's "Insidious" the Shocking Box Office Success Story of 2011
"How to Turn Small Movies into Big Box Office Success" details how New Think Creative's big idea-based creative branding approach made the small-budget film Insidious into a blockbuster using the same high-concept branding techniques they have used to shape the biggest brands in the world.
New York NY (PRWEB) March 08, 2012
At this year's Miami International Film Festival, Janet Lyons and Mike Campbell of New Think Creative plan to reveal the techniques that made Insidious "the most profitable film of 2011." Their 90-minute seminar will be held at 2:00 p.m. on Saturday, March 10th at the Miami Beach Cinematheque.
Prior to working with the film and entertainment industry, the award-winning creative techniques of co-founders Janet Lyons and Mike Campbell were hugely successful for Apple, Dominos, De Beers, FedEx, Frito-Lay, HBO, Merrill Lynch, NYSE, Pepsi, Pizza Hut, P&G, and VISA.
New Think Creative was brought in by Bob Berney, President of Theatrical Distribution for newly formed FilmDistrict, to help market their first feature releases, Insidious and Soul Surfer. Both films far exceeded box office expectations, with Insidious being named "the most profitable film of 2011″ by The Hollywood Reporter.
New Think Creative's approach helps a movie build a substantial community of die-hard fans – before the film has even opened. Says Lyons, " Selling a movie is no different than selling a big brand – you're fighting against the competition to stand out. Small independent films can out ℠blockbuster´ blockbusters with big idea-based branding."
The presentation is part of the Miami International Film Festival, sponsored by Miami Dade College. The festival features more than 100 films from 35 countries during the 10-day event, which runs March 2-11, 2012. It is expected to draw Oscar-winning star attendees like Kevin Kline and Marcia Gay Harden.
About New Think Creative
New Think Creative is a collaboration of award-winning and brand-building creatives, designers, editors, digital and film producers that offers a complete 360Ëš creative approach to movie marketing. They start with a big branding idea that connects with audiences and then drive home the idea by using every media platform: theatrical trailers, one sheets, movie websites, TV advertising, buzz marketing, b-roll, behind the scenes and viral content, as well as digital and social media strategies.

US drone kills 3 suspected militants in Pakistan
More News from Rasool Dawar
More News from Associated Press
PESHAWAR, Pakistan — A U.S. drone fired a pair of missiles at a house in Pakistan's northwest tribal region near the Afghan border Thursday, killing three suspected militants, Pakistani intelligence officials said.
The strike hit Mubarak Shahi village in the North Waziristan tribal area, the main sanctuary for al-Qaida and Taliban militants in Pakistan, said the intelligence officials, speaking on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to talk to the media.
The exact identities of the suspected militants were unclear. The area is dominated by prominent local militant commander Hafiz Gul Bahadur, who has focused his fight against Afghan and foreign troops across the border in Afghanistan.
The U.S. rarely discusses the covert CIA drone program in Pakistan in public. But American officials have said privately that the strikes have killed many senior al-Qaida and Taliban commanders.
On Wednesday, a pair of suicide bombers rammed their truck filled with explosives into the gate of an army camp in another part of Pakistan's tribal region, killing three soldiers and wounding more than 20, intelligence officials said.
Many were wounded when the blast caused the roof of a military hospital at the camp to collapse, said the intelligence officials, speaking on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to talk to the media. Some of the soldiers were critically wounded, and officials warned the death toll could rise.
The attack occurred in Wana, the main town in the South Waziristan tribal area, which was the most important sanctuary for the Pakistani Taliban until the army launched a major ground offensive in 2009.
The army says it has made great progress in flushing the militants out of the area, but attacks still occur periodically.

A 5.1 rig that brings USB to the party
This famous name is differentiating its 5.1 rig from Creative's and Logitech's by giving it a USB as well as analogue input.
The advantage of USB is that you don't need a 5.1 sound card for six-channel surround sound.
If you already have a decent multichannel sound card installed in your PC - which many of you surely will - using a USB input seems to offer no noticeable advantage in terms of sound quality.

Ginger Found to Be Most Effective Morning Sickness Remedy
Ginger is the most effective herbal remedy for pregnant women who are struggling with morning sickness, performing as well as Dramamine, a new study published in The Journal of Maternal-Fetal and Neonatal Medicine has found. But a number of other herbal remedies commonly used by pregnant women, including castor oil to induce labor, raspberry tea to shorten it, and garlic to treat preeclampsia, were found to have no measurable affect beyond, perhaps, a placebo effect in some cases. From The New York Times:
"In their report, published in The Journal of Maternal-Fetal and Neonatal Medicine, they identified more than 500 studies of herbal remedies used during pregnancy. Many studies had design flaws and other problems and, ultimately, only 14 randomized, controlled trials were deemed suitable to include in the report.
The researchers found that ginger was the most thoroughly studied remedy, and the one found most consistently effective. It relieved morning sickness better than a placebo, and was as good as Dramamine at doing so.
But the evidence for other popular herbal options was lacking. Cranberry, often used against urinary tract infections, a common occurrence in pregnancy, was found ineffective. There was no evidence that garlic helps with preeclampsia, or that raspberry leaf shortened labor. And while castor oil appears to be free of side effects, it has no ability to induce labor."

Ever take ginger when you have your period? You'll suddenly have a heavier flow! GINGER PROMOTES BLEEDING. Sure you want to do that when you're pregnant?
I love ginger, but even once after eating it a few hours before and then cutting my finger I noticed the blood took longer to clot. We tell people on Coumadin or Lovenox not to eat ginger because it promotes bleeding and the patients' blood is already thinner. WHY would anyone tell a pregnant woman that eating ginger can help with morning sickness, something that she might suffer for days or weeks on end? Yes, maybe she can use it once in a while, but she shouldn't eat it once a week or even a few times per week.

London, Apr 30: A YouTube channel and a football website has reportedly made a parody of the ongoing race for the manager's position at Manchester United in the style of the fantasy TV series, Game of Thrones.
Player-coach Ryan Giggs is currently the interim manager of the Old Trafford side following the sacking of David Moyes after a mere ten months at the club.
According to Metro.co.uk, Fitba Thatba has mocked United executive vice-chairman Ed Woodward's search for a worthy replacement of the iconic Sir Alex Ferguson as a 'desperate scouring of lands'.
The YouTube channel has shown Woodward considering Jose Mourinho, Carlo Ancelotti, Pep Guardiola, Jurgen Klopp and 'wife slayer' Ryan Giggs, before eventually settling on shark-riding, trumpet-playing Louis Van Gaal, the report added. (ANI)

The recall of US author Wendy Doniger's book on Hinduism by publisher Penguin Books was received with much outrage. And although the official decision to withdraw the book tilted 'The Hindus: An Alternative History' was made on February 4, the move has created an uproar among readers as well as within the writing community, that is still ongoing.
The backlash from the announcement of the ban has been quite evident on social media. The hashtag #TheHindus was trending, where people showcased their outrage. However the book has not been banned, it has been recalled. This means that Wendy Doniger can seek out another publishing house and sell the book through them.
Wendy Doniger, herself put out a statement on Facebook explaining that she was extremely disappointment with Penguin's actions. One of Penguin's long time writers Arundhati Roy also penned a letter to the publishing house expressing her frustration. She questions Penguin's motive and reasons for taking the step, reminding the publishing conglomerate of its long history. "You owe us, your writers an explanation at the very least," she demands.
After recieving much intense criticism, the publishing giant released this statement on Friday, February 14.
"Penguin Books India believes, and has always believed, in every individual's right to freedom of thought and expression, a right explicitly codified in the Indian Constitution. This commitment informs Penguin's approach to publishing in every territory of the world, and we have never been shy about testing that commitment in court when appropriate. At the same time, a publishing company has the same obligation as any other organisation to respect the laws of the land in which it operates, however intolerant and restrictive those laws may be. We also have a moral responsibility to protect our employees against threats and harassment where we can.
The settlement reached this week brings to a close a four year legal process in which Penguin has defended the publication of the Indian edition of The Hindus by Wendy Doniger. We have published, in succession, hardcover, paperback and e-book editions of the title. International editions of the book remain available physically and digitally to Indian readers who still wish to purchase it.
We stand by our original decision to publish The Hindus, just as we stand by the decision to publish other books that we know may cause offence to some segments of our readership. We believe, however, that the Indian Penal Code, and in particular section 295A of that code, will make it increasingly difficult for any Indian publisher to uphold international standards of free expression without deliberately placing itself outside the law.
This is, we believe, an issue of great significance not just for the protection of creative freedoms in India but also for the defence of fundamental human rights."

Dear Editor:
The Ramage site of AmeriCorps Energy Express has been a success this summer! Energy Express is a summer reading program funded through AmeriCorps that serves to enhance and enrich reading skills and nutrition of school-aged children between kindergarten and sixth grade.
By using art, non-competitive games, drama writing, group reading, graphic organizers, and one-on-one reading, Energy Express mentors work with a group of eight children to maintain and improve reading skills.
The children who attend also are given two nutritious meals a day that are shared in a family-style fashion by the mentor and everyone in that group.
Part of our success this year is thanks to those in the community who have donated to our site! We received many donations of food for snack bags that we pack each week to ensure that children have sufficient, nutritious food over the weekends. Some of those who donated are: Kroger, Mrs. Sharon Schlagel, Mrs. Linda Bias, Towne and Country Foodland. Alpha Coal Mines also donated book bags for the children. Thank you all so much!
The Ramage site of AmeriCorps Energy Express would also like to thank the Scott High Football team, Dr. Lisa Beck, policemen Chad Barker and Graley, and teachers Rachel Hill and Nancy Woody for coming and reading to our children, along with Senator Dr. Ron Stollings and judge Cynthia Jarrell-Compston for donating to our blood drive this summer.
Aside from these well-known folks, many people have come to volunteer and help with our site including parents, grandparents, cousins, aunts, uncles, and people in the community who recognize the importance of reading and nutrition programs. Thank you so much!

The lane the mill is on follows the river a few kilometres and it is a lovely walk with plenty of opportunities for bathing along the way, it is a paradise for children who can explore to their hearts content. There is horse riding close by too. There is a large garden and a private path down to the river, where the crystal clear cold water flows from the mountains down to the sea and is so refreshing, completely stress free all you need for a perfect family holiday or a romantic holiday or even a few friends getting together.
The villages around have dances all summer long and provide entertainment of a vast range for all the family and of course we are so close to the sea, even though I can assure you after a hot day at the beach the mill will seem like paradise found on your return.
Stock up the car from one of the supermarkets in Ventimiglia or Camporosso on your way down, look out for BILLA, LIDL, CONAD or Maxisconto - when you turn left after Ventimiglia up the valley on the left hand side over the river you will see a small industrial estate at the first roundabout go right over the bridge and right after the second roundabout to maxi Sconto (more choice than LIDL that you will see first) and just enjoy.
You will find a mobile phone in the mill with an Italian sim card for your use, incase you need to contact us or book local restaurants, this is just for local calls.
Small food shops are usually closed Wednesday afternoons but the bigger supermarkets are all open even on Sundays. Bread is bought from shops called PANETTERIA and most small grocery shops have bread.

Life Savers Gummies Coolers
It was surprising to me that the Life Savers line of gummis is one of the most popular lines of gummis in the country, but I suppose part of it has to do with their ubiquity.
The new Life Savers Gummies Coolers are billed as Your favorite refreshing drink flavors have joined the Life Savers family.
The package has some nice cool pastel tones on it and an odd assortment of flavors. The Cooler name made me think of the Sour Patch Chillerz, which were infused with a little bit of menthol to give a cooling quality in the mouth. But the reality is, they're just chilled drink flavors ... though not flavors I would readily order (there are no lemonades).
Cherry Limeade is the deep red. It's an interesting mix of that classic Life Savers cherry and a little hint of citrus zest. I would have preferred more of the lime, but I appreciate that it wasn't overly sweet and it certainly packed a lot of flavor in there.
Raspberry Iced Tea was the pale pink one. It's funny to see two raspberry flavors in one bag. This one tasted like raspberry. I didn't detect any tannins from the tea but there was a well rounded raspberry flavor that got both the floral note, a blush of tartness and a hint of the seeds.
Fruit Punch is probably orange. It tastes like fruit punch. Not much else to say except that I like it when my fruit punch doesn't have quite so much artificial coloring in it, so at least this version had a little less of that bitter red in it. It didn't make me like it any more than if it was bitter.
Blue Raspberry Slushy was blue. The raspberry flavor was sweet. That was pretty much it. It was sweet and a little soapy from the floral notes of the berry. There was very little sour to go along with it.
Watermelon Breeze was light green. I think this was just watermelon flavored, as I could detect no other note of breeze in it. The watermelon was definitely on the green side of the flavors, more about the tart note that you get when you eat close to the rind than the sweet and floral flavor of the center of the melon.
The diversity of the flavors was lacking, but then again, all of them were good enough that I'd eat any placed in front of me. The intensity is good and I enjoy the shape quite a bit. But on the whole, the flavor set just didn't thrill me. Of the Life Savers line of gummis, I prefer the Sours best, mostly because of the transcendent tangerine.

Pearson's Sea Salt Caramel Nut Goodies
The Nut Goodie is made by Pearson's and debuted in 1912, one of the oldest combination candy bars still in production. Though they're still mostly a local candy in the St. Paul, Minnesota area, they are found at specialty stores around the country. One of the notable things about the Nut Goodies (a maple cream covered with peanuts & chocolate) is that they're made with real chocolate. There are a lot of regional candy bars that somewhere along the way (or maybe they started out that way) ended up with cheaper "chocolate compound" (basically, mockolate).
Pearson's is busy celebrating their 100th anniversary with some special events, including the first new spin-off of the Nut Goodie, the Pearson's Sea Salt Caramel Nut Goodies. (I'm not sure why this version of the candy gets a plural on the package.)
The new Sea Salt Caramel Nut Goodie – made with real milk chocolate, Virginia peanuts, sea salt and caramel – marks the first permanent line extension in the Nut Goodie's 100-year history.
It's a very simple candy, which makes me wonder why there aren't more of these on the market. A caramel pattie covered in peanuts and milk chocolate. Dead simple, but not easy to find.
The caramel portion is soft and chewy, almost the point of flowing. When they said sea salt, they weren't kidding though. This 1.75 ounce candy has 220 mg, which is about twice as much as necessary. The nuts, as promised, are fresh and crunch and actually have that distinctive "Virginia" flavor which is a little more earthy and less green than other varieties. The chocolate is sweet but much richer with a stronger cocoa flavor than I expected. It was a welcome component to the piece. Really, my only issue with this is the too-salty caramel. I recognize that my low-salt lifestyle has made me much more sensitive to this, but I still think that the level, for a non-savory item, is just too high.
I liked the package, I liked the concept. I hope that Pearson's considers a regular caramel instead or at least in addition to this.

Short and Sweet: Easter Bites
Here are a few Easter candies I bought but I'm not going to get around to doing a full review.
Ghirardelli Milk & Coconut Chocolate Eggs come in a little 3.5 ounce bag and like the other two versions available for Easter, they're a bit on the pricey side. I paid $3.99 for this little bag.
I was actually out at CVS looking for the Cadbury Hollow Bunny that I noted in my roundup of products for 2013. (I was hoping it was on sale, because the first time I saw them, they were $4.79 for a 3.5 ounce bunny and I didn't really want to fork that over for Cadbury chocolate.) While looking though I spotted this bag, which reader Kate mentioned was available last year.
They're pretty and feature good quality milk chocolate. These were a little softer in texture and had a silky melt. The coconut mixed into the chocolate is crispy, though it does become chewy after a while. It's a nice combination of textures and flavors. I found the coconut a little too, I don't know, difficult to get out of my teeth. Still, I manged to finish the bag within 24 hours, so I must have liked them. I'll still go for the Milk Crisp version over this.
Rating: 7 out of 10
I found Ferrero Tic Tac Bunny Burst at Target with all the other little Easter Basket stuffers. I didn't see a press release on this, so I didn't know it was coming out. Further, there's no listing on the package or anywhere I can find on the internet that says what flavors are actually in the Bunny Burst.
The green is pretty easy to figure out. It was green apple. They're sweet and tangy, with a very sweet, odd aftertaste. I didn't care much for it and was hoping for better in the lilac colored ones.
The soft purple is a bit of a mystery flavor. The ingredients list dried apple, dried grape, dried acerola (West Indian Cherry) and dried lychee. So I'm going to call this one tropical. It has a light green grape note, I also tasted violets along with a floral melon and vague medicinal cherry note. At one point did think about lychees, as well. It's interesting and unique. Not really what I'd call good or refreshing, but I didn't notice the weird sweet and metallic aftertaste with this one.
They're made in Canada and contain carmine, so they're not suitable for vegetarians.

I bought this pair of Cemoi Classic Creamy Egg (Milk Chocolate) at Cost Plus World Market. I was actually hoping to find a dark chocolate version, perhaps more upscale, of the classic Cadbury Creme Egg.
This is not that. I can't give it a full review because I didn't actually eat it. Both were sticky and oozy under the foil wrap, though I made my choices from the box at the store very carefully. I opened both and found overly sweet, grainy fondant. The chocolate was marginal, it was all just very sweet and unappealing. So into the trash they went.
Rating: 3 out of 10
I reviewed the Snickers Peanut Butter Squared before when they came out. The Snickers Peanut Butter Egg is the same construction, only in hemispherical ovoid shape. It's a little different because it's molded instead of being enrobed. Of course the domed shape also means different bites have different ratios. But overall I noticed more caramel in it. The chocolate and caramel and peanut with peanut butter is a nice combination. The salty peanut butter keeps it from being too sweet. I enjoyed it more than the Square thing. I also reviewed the Santa version of this which also has different proportions because of the shape of the mold.

Russell Stover Cookie Dough Egg
Russell Stover is a fixture at American drug stores at Easter with their large variety of single serving Easter eggs. New this year is the Russell Stover Cookie Dough Egg.
This new egg follows the same sort of construction as the Red Velvet Santa first spotted for Christmas (also available as an egg). The center is an actual flour-based dough. Unlike other fondant centers which are just whipped up sugars, this one is a bit more complex. Here's the ingredient list (forgive me for any transcription errors, it's green printing on a cream background):
So, instead of a short list, this is long and includes lots of flour, so it's not gluten free. It also contains high fructose corn syrup a few times, which is disappointing because Russell Stover, while not being top of the line, is usually filled with plain old sugar and corn syrup. This is what happens when candy makers start adding bakery items. Unlike actually cookie dough, this has no egg products.
The egg looks like many of the other milk chocolate Russell Stover varieties. It's on the flat side, and has two rows of glossy ripples. It's about two inches long and one and a quarter inches wide.
The bite is soft and the center is, well, doughy. It's not dry but not quite as moist as I expect. It has a grain to it, with the sugar being noticeable and I might have detected a little salt as well. The flour taste is not noticeable (sometimes real cookie dough can taste like raw flour).
Unlike cookie dough nugget products, this has more of the satisfaction of eating a spoonful of dough. The chocolate chips didn't do much for me, but the milk chocolate coating was smooth, creamy and a sweet complement to the dough. I'd prefer a dark chocolate version, as I put dark chips in my cookies. It's similar to their Brownie Egg (which it turns out, I've never reviewed), but naturally less chocolatey.
It's a good rendition of cookie dough as a candy. I don't know if I'd grab this over something like their marshmallows or the Pecan Delight, but I know there are some folks who will really appreciate this.

Zitners: Butter Krak, Peanut Butter, Double Cocoanut & Butter Cream Eggs
Zitner's Butter Krak Eggs are a local favorite in Philadelphia. Their Easter egg selections have been made since 1922. Like many candy companies, it started with a family recipe, sold to friends and neighbors at the holidays and expanded from there.
I don't remember eating them when I lived in Pennsylvania, and I've never seen them in stores anywhere else. One of my fellow candy bloggers did send me a couple about five years ago (but it was after Easter, so I didn't post a review) so I have had them recently.
I was looking forward to trying them again, so I put in an order from a webstore called PA General Store that sells Philadelphia favorites. I ordered a mixed box of 24, which included a selection of their four single serving sized eggs: Butter Krak, Peanut Butter, Double Cocoanut & Butter Cream Eggs.
Zitners Butter Krak Egg is one of those names that sticks with you. The odd thing is that the actual description of the egg was a mystery to me.
They're a coconut butter cream covered in dark chocolate, but the chocolate also has toasted coconut in it. (Well, they call it cocoanut. More on that later.)
All of the eggs are about the same size, about 2.5 inches long, about 1 inch in diameter and weigh 1 and 1/8 of an ounce. So they're nice portions, about double the size of a boxed chocolate.
The dark chocolate has a lot of the crispy toasted coconut in it, it gives it a nice texture and is actually toasted and crispy (which is hard to balance without them becoming too hard and difficult to chew). The center is soft and creamy, like a buttercream frosting. It's sugary but has an overall smooth texture. There's a lot of coconut in there, though it's shorter minced bits, so not too chewy.
The dark chocolate isn't bitter but still balances the sweetness of the center well. This is one of those candies that I would like once or twice a year and I can see why it's a local favorite. I'm not sure if I've had another version quite like it.
Now, if no one told me the names of these eggs, I would have thought the Butter Krak was double the coconut, because it has coconut in the center and the chocolate. But the reality is that the cream center of the Double Cocoanut Egg actually has twice the coconut than, well, I guess the Butter Krak center.
It is dense. It's not as buttery, sweet or moist as the Butter Krak. But it is coconutty. The center barely holds together. I liked how it was so much less sweet than all the other eggs I'd tried, it was far more satisfying. Still, it was just a chocolate covered coconut egg, though it was fresh and I generally like them, this one didn't blow me away.
Zitners Milk Chocolate Peanut Butter Egg was my favorite. It's not really that hard to make a good peanut butter egg and they've done a great job. The peanut butter center isn't too dry and not too sticky smooth either. The texture is very similar to a Reese's Peanut Butter Cup with a noticeable grain and fair amount of peanut butter oils. The tops of my eggs were a little soft, a hazard when coating peanut butter with chocolate. But they held together well. The peanut butter has just the right hint of salt and has a peanut butter cookie dough texture.
They don't quite top the Reese's Peanut Butter Eggs but if you want to go for something locally made (if you are on the Eastern Seaboard) this is a nice option. (Though I don't know where their milk chocolate comes from.)
Zitners Butter Cream Egg was my least favorite of the bunch. It's extremely sweet. The center is pure mushy sweetness. I was hoping it was going to have a defined butter flavor, or perhaps a brown sugar note. Instead it's like a log of frosting covered in dark chocolate. The dark chocolate, though thin, does moderate the overt sweetness (as does a little bit of salt) but it's still too insanely sweet with no other flavors or textures to provide a respite.
On the other hand, Easter is always the most insanely sweet season, the time of year when I yearn for white chocolate, so I know there must be plenty of people out there who must have these.
If I lived in an area where I had a choice between these and Russell Stover, I'd probably go for these in Peanut Butter or the Butter Krak over any of the Russell Stover varieties. (Except for the Pecan Delight.) But I live in a See's area, and though they don't offer them at the drug store in individually wrapped pieces, I would make the trip to get their Scotchmallow Eggs or mix of Egg Quartet (though they cost about 25% more).

Hershey's Candy Coated White Chocolate Flavored Eggs
When Easter rolls around, I usually spend my discretionary calories on new holiday candies. One candy that I do purchase year after year, though, are the Hershey's Candy Coated Milk Chocolate Eggs. The shell is thick and crunchy and the fudgy Hershey's chocolate center soothes me in a way that high quality chocolate cannot.
I was interested to see Hershey's newest item in their growing category of candy coated items. Hershey's Candy Coated White Chocolate Flavored Eggs were on sale. Last year Mars introduced the White Chocolate M&Ms as an Easter item (still an exclusive at Target this year), so it's natural that Hershey's would want to be in the white game as well.
The big thing to note is that this is white chocolate flavored, not fully-accredited white chocolate. Instead of using only cocoa butter and dairy fats, Hershey's has added all sorts of other vegetable oils.
Hershey's is capable of some wonderful white chocolate, the Cookies 'n Creme bar used to be spectacular. Here's the ingredients list for the white eggs:
The sized and shape are the same as the Milk Chocolate Eggs, in fact, I bought some at the same time just to compare.
The shell is quite thick, very hard and crunchy. Though there is quite a list of artificial colors in the ingredients, they're only splattered with color so it's not much to get in the way of the pure flavors. And by pure, I mean the sugar and the artificial vanilla and the milk.
It tastes artificial, like fake vanilla or instant pudding. It's a wonderful shorthand for the smell of Easter, it's like an Easter Basket in a candy shell. It's certainly not for those who don't like their candy sweet.
Compared to the new White Chocolate M&Ms, they're vastly different. The M&Ms are smaller, have a more delicate shell and a more well-rounded butter flavor. The M&Ms are smoother and have a higher fat content and slick, almost greasy, texture (especially if they get warm). The Hershey's White Eggs are a great mix of textures but don't have flavor nor the cleanest ingredients to go with it.
Still ... there's something about them that reminds me too much of those Easters of childhood when there really was an Easter Bunny and the candy was special. Cheap white chocolate is so inextricably tied in my head to the holiday, it's hard to objective about it. I'm eating these, but I'm not sure I actually like them. And I'm considering buying them again.

Sockerbit Swedish Candy Selections
While in New York City I picked up a huge selection of candy from Sockerbit, a Swedish candy shop. Nearly all of their products are found in their bulk bins, for the standard price of $13 a pound.
The candies, most from Sweden, are made without artificial colors. You can buy from Sockerbit's website but their best selection is in their store.
The candies are fresh and well marked in their bins. I made three different bags for myself. One was wrapped candies (not pictured), an array of fudge & chocolate items and the third mix was for marshmallow and fruity candies. I purchased about a pound total and as you can see from this posting, sampled a huge variety of candy styles and flavors.
Romrussin Fudge - say it out loud and it's obvious that this is rum raisin fudge. Even though the pieces seem a bit dry and hard, they're not at all once I bit into one. The rum note is light, like a butterscotch sort of flavor. The raisins are tangy and sweet and pretty chewy.
Fudge Duo is a stack of vanilla fudge and chocolate fudge. It's a bit drier than the romrussin. The chocolate is mild, the vanilla is quite sweet and has a light toffee note. The texture is smooth, without the heavy buttered grain of some styles of fudge (which I rather like). This was a bit sweet for me and I think I would have to either limit myself to one piece or eat it with something like dark chocolate, nuts or strong coffee.
Licorice Fudge is quite black and rather formidable. The flavor profile is well done. It's not as sweet as the other fudges and according to the ingredients list I found online, it has 2.3% licorice powder in it. Like the other candies sold at Sockerbit, there are no artificial colorings, in this case the licorice is made black by the use of carbon black (E153 - which may have animal origins, my vegetarian friends). It's unusual to find this licorice product here, because E153 is not approved in the US.
Overall, the fudge was dry. I'm not a huge fudge person in the first place, but the thing I like best about it is the buttery, grainy texture of fresh fudge.
Polly are little nougat nuggets covered in milk or dark chocolate. A little larger than a Milk Dud, they're quite a tasty morsel, something I would want to buy again. They're a little egg-noggy, maybe a rum flavoring to them. They're chewy, like a stiff nougat but there's no sugary grain to them (kind of like a tacky marshmallow). The dark chocolate version has a decent semi-sweet coating on it, it's not that rich but passable for something that's more of a family candy. The milk chocolate is actually a bit better, with strong dairy tastes and possibly this is the only one that has the rum notes to it.
Nougat with Almonds - it's a bit dry, though not at all sticky. They're airy pieces, kind of a cross between marshmallow and the Italian torrone. There's no essence to it, no amaretto or orange notes. It's a clean flavor and easy to eat. I wouldn't mind them coated in chocolate as well. The nougat works better as a "dry" candy compared to the fudge and I'd be happy to eat more if I found it.
The final item, and one of the other amazing finds is Punsch Punsch. They're similar to the Polly, in that they're little rummy nuggets covered in chocolate.
The center is a fudge-like sweet paste with a light rum and possibly raisin flavor. It's covered in semi-sweet chocolate and some cute little nonpareils for garnish. I didn't like them quite as much as the Polly, they're not quite as poppable. They're a bit sweeter and the rum more pronounced ... maybe it needed a bit more of a creamy butter component for me.
Starting small, there are a few jelly berries in there called Skogsbär. There were three different colors, each a little different. The Swedish berry flavor is mild but smooth. The classic raspberries were jammy but still not very intense. When I first bought them they were smooth but after sitting in the paper bag they got a little harder and grainier.
Marshmallow Selection
I always enjoy banana marshmallows. The frothy texture of marshmallow goes well with banana flavoring. In the case of the banana marshmallows from Sweden, don't get these confused with the American Marbits known as Circus Peanuts. The texture is far smoother and the flavor, though probably artificial is not caustic. There's even a little tartness to it.
The second banana is called Banana Bubs, they're half yellow banana flavor and the other half a mild caramel flavor. They're foamy and soft, chewy and less tart than the bananas.
The large pink disk says Franssons on it. It's strawberry flavored, soft and has a great berry flavor to it. The smooth dissolve of the marshmallow gives it a creamy texture without any actual fat. It's a few bites, so it ends up being a lot of candy in one piece. Refreshing.
Skumsvampar are the little hat shapes came in two different flavors. The pink ones are the lingonberry flavor, they're more sweet without that round tart note that the disk had. The tan ones are cola, they're very mild but have a good caramel and light spice note to them.
Elephant Feet Licorice is the only licorice I picked up while I was there, though they had quite a bit. These are a pleasant variety. The base is foamy and has a light caramel flavor to it. The black licorice layer is a gummi with a mild anise note to it. They're easy to eat with an almost creamy flavor to it, like the crema on an espresso.
Ferrari - Berry and Cola - they're just race cars in different flavors. I picked out the berry and cola ones, which came in separate bins.
The Red Car is Swedish berry flavor, whatever the Swedish Fish flavor is, probably something like the lingonberry version of Jolly Rancher green apple. But it wasn't exactly a flavor retread, it was different. It was much strong, much more floral, the the point where I noticed an overwhelming note of violet in my candy bag only to find it was this single red car that was causing it. It's a good flavor, but very ultimately very different from the masculine berry I was expecting.
Cola Car is spicy and bold, with a sharp tartness to it. These got stale more quickly than some of the other pieces I picked out.
The Malaco Gummi Cola Bottles were tangy and sharp, but not quite as spicy or as vibrant as I would have liked. However, the texture was quite nice, a little tougher and less sticky than Swedish Fish. I would eat these ... I might even prefer them over Haribo Gummi Cola Bottles.
Euca Menthol Gummidrops might be Dutch. They're domed and big and covered with granulated sugar. They're very firm and a bit tough if you like to eat your gummis in several bites.
The flavor is not straight menthol or mint. It's more like a berry flavor, maybe lingonberry with a menthol kick to it. There's a light tartness to it as well. They're odd. I was expecting them to be a straight sort of gummi mint cough drop (smaller gummi eucalyptus drops are popular in South America), but they're simply different from that. I can't decide if I like them. They're soothing and invigorating ... but I wouldn't call them tasty. It's like mixing Sleepytime tea with Red Zinger.
Some other items not shown in the photos:
Dumle are individually wrapped chocolate covered toffee pieces. The toffee style is really a caramel. It's quite soft, but not oozy like Cadbury's. It has a light, cereal flavor that reminds me of graham crackers, maybe even with a hint of coconut and cinnamon. I also tried the purple wrapped liquorice variety. Instead of being a goofy over-colored black inside, it looked just the like other toffee version. The licorice flavor is mild and earthy.
Hem-kola are little squares of firm hazelnut caramel. They're kind of like a rich Now & Later. The hazelnut is more of a flavor, there's no crushed nuts in there. It's sweet and becomes a little grainy towards the end. They reminded me a lot of the caramel style of Sugar Babies.
Rollo are like Sugar Daddy, a tough caramel. It's creamy and has a strong dairy flavor, more than a hint of salt and a smooth texture.
Tom's Guld Karamel are good, like a Storck Chocolate Riesen. The caramel (toffee) center is smooth, salty but not chocolate flavored on its own. The chocolate coating though is rather dark and bitter.
Sockerbit (website)
Whenever I'm in New York, I will definitely make this a stop. I know that the inventory changes as well, so not all of these candies may be available right now. (Here's a review of my recent New York City candy shopping spree.)
I give the Polly an 8 out of 10, the Banana marshmallows, Cola candies and Elephant Feet a 7 out of 10 and everything else a 6 out of 10.

Limited Edition Milky Way French Vanilla
Mars often teases new products months in advance, they announced the Milky Way Limited Edition French Vanilla back in August 2012. It's supposed to hit store shelves in February, but last summer there were quite a few readers who reported it on shelves already (which could have been test marketing in select cities).
The wrapper is lighter in color, even lighter than the Milky Way Caramel bar, so it should be easy to spot on shelves. The bar is a little smaller, too, at 1.72 ounces instead of 1.84.
It does smell a lot like vanilla. Some of the vanilla notes are authentic, fragrant and round with a little alcoholic rum note to it. But part of it has a fake sweet note as well, which could be an artificial flavor in there.
The construction of the bar is the same as all the American Milky Ways, a nougat base with a stripe of caramel on the top and then a swirly coating of milk chocolate. I found the ratio of caramel and nougat a little off, I seem to recall more caramel than these had.
The vanilla flavor is potent but also seems to heighten the sweetness of the nougat, the caramel and the very milky milk chocolate. The whole thing is sticky and though I found it to be passable, it's not a bar I might eat again. Cover it in dark chocolate and throw some almonds in there, and I think we'd actually have something great. I might be more satisfied with the ratios if these were the minis. Otherwise, with some strong tea, I thought it was a nice treat.
I'm still unclear if these are out in stores at the moment or if they'll show up. Mars also said that they were introducing Twix Sugar Cookie minis over the 2012 Christmas holiday, but I can't find anyone who actually found them in stores. This flavor is more distinctive than the French Vanilla 3 Musketeers that came out back in 2007.
Mars is working on ethical cacao sourcing, starting with their Dove line in the United States. The bar contains soy, eggs and dairy and may contain traces of peanuts. There was no gluten statement on the wrapper. The samples I got were made in Canada, I have no idea if the final version will also be made there.
(I apologize for not getting better shots of the bars. I got two as samples in October but both were smashed in transit. I did my best to find a good angle on the best looking bar. I didn't want to wait for them to show up in stores, as Los Angeles seems to get limited edition Mars items much later than the rest of the country.)

However, the culture eventually turned towards religion and here lies the result. As opposed to the age of enlightenment, where people turned away from religion, and hence the civilization prospered.

And I thought Firefox and IE8 which collectively have like 80% of web traffic didn't run on Webkit, thank you for correcting me and pointing out that both IE8 and Firefox now both run Webkit (at least in your world). Oh how wrong I was and how enlightened I am now!
Webkit is a niche product, not only that but you attribute to Apple that which was at least 50% (and probably closer to 80% with apple primarily being involved in performance enhancement) developed by KDE. Sure Apple came in and tweaked and improved a bit but the base of Webkit was written by KDE and Apples small improvements were rolled back into it's predecessor.

Hmm, a parody of tyrannical IP enforcement involving Hitler.. wherever will we find source material for that one?
What you describe is a satire of the current state of IP enforcement and while the satirical elements (subtitles) would be original, that would not be the case for the Hitler video/audio.

That would only apply if you are recording on film, in motion JPEG, or another 'one full photo per frame' format. The now-common H.264 and MPEG-2 both are temporal, so you don't actually get one full "photo" per claimed frame.

I use thunderbird for news, and I absolutely consider a news feed as part of the services an ISP should provide.
That said, mine just funnels the requests to a dedicated usenet provider.

You're right, on one hand mocking something sacrosanct does cause drama. On the other hand, by permitting people to mock a faith, it does encourage a mindset that a religion ISN'T a deadly serious business, and discourages fundamentalism, encouraging religious tolerance in general. I'm of the option this is part of what turned Christianity from one of the most intolerant faiths in the known world to one of the more accepting ones.

So do not worry,
"maybe its time to grow some thicker skin"
It has little to do with feelings ("skin"), the retribution for the attacks against the Prophet, sal Allahu 'alaihi wa sallam, is part of my religion. Every religion has a sacred part that has to be defended, Islam has it too and part of the reason Islam being taken seriously is the willingness of many followers to follow the Islamic rulings strictly.
