Recent Harbor Beach Reviews
Breathtaking Sunrises!
Look no further. You will love this charming, very clean, well maintained cottage with breathtaking sunrises! We enjoyed watching the many freighters, sailboats, swans, ducks, and geese. We spent our evenings by the campfire. The cottage has everything you'll need to cook with to the campfire marshmallow sticks. The beds were very comfortable. The decor was very inviting and made you feel right at home. We are already planning our next trip to this lovely place on the lake. Thank you Christa for sharing your lovely home and making us feel welcome from the moment we drove in the driveway. The only problem we encountered....we didn't want to leave!
Absolutely wonderful and relaxing!!!!!
My husband and myself and another couple stayed for the 4th of July weekend and had a wonderful time. The weather was perfect and the people in the area are so friendly and accomodating. We cant' wait to do it again:)

The BBC was on Friday bracing itself for a long night as anti-fascist groups from across Britain prepared to picket its television headquarters in west London in what was billed as the "mother of all protests" against the corporation's decision to invite Nick Griffin, leader of the far-right British National Party (BNP), to appear on its flagship current affairs programme Question Time scheduled for telecast on BBC One later in the evening.
Hosted by the veteran broadcaster David Dimbleby and regarded as one of BBC's most prestigious shows, Question Time features prominent politicians and other public figures who answer questions on a range of current topics from an invited audience.
Security was stepped up amid fears of clashes between protesters and BNP supporters who threatened to stage a counter-demonstration. Ugly scenes were also feared during the programme after it emerged that "hundreds" of BNP activists had applied to be part of the audience. Anti-racist campaigners were also expected to be present in full strength to confront Mr. Griffin.
Rather dramatically, Mr. Griffin said he was expecting a "political bloodsport". He also expressed fear for his life saying that there would be people "hell-bent on doing me serious damage".
"I don't know how they are going to get me in. It may be quite tricky," he said.
One newspaper reported that the BNP was so "concerned" about its leader's safety that it had wanted to charter a helicopter to get him to the BBC studios but was apparently told that there was no place for it to land.
Police said they had a plan to get Mr. Griffin into the studio "safely" and in a "timely manner".
The BBC's decision to invite Mr. Griffin, a convicted racist and an admirer of Hitler, has caused outrage across the political establishment and it has been accused of giving "legitimacy" to a fascist party. Initially, the Labour Party was reluctant to nominate anyone to appear alongside him on the programme but eventually Justice Secretary Jack Straw, who has a long track of tackling racist politics, agreed to "take on" Mr. Griffin.
The Tories will be represented by Sayeeda Warsi, the first Muslim shadow minister; and the Liberal Democrats by their home affairs spokesman Chris Huhne. Also on the platform will be the well-known African-American playwright residing in Britain, Bonnie Greer.
The BBC has defended its decision arguing that Mr. Griffin was an elected member of the European Parliament and his party had demonstrated a level of public support in regional elections. It said its invitation to Mr. Griffin was consistent with its principle of impartiality and the "case against inviting the BNP" was a "case for censorship".
Keywords: British National Party, BBC, Question Time, Nick Griffin

You know, the core of Governor Romney's argument was pretty straightforward. His answer to the classic Reagan question, take a look.
ROMNEY: This president can ask us to be patient, this president can tell us it was someone else's fault, this president can tell us that the next four years he'll get it right. But this cannot tell us that you're better off today than when he took office.
STEPHANOPOULOS: Is he right, can the president argue unequivocally that Americans are better off today than they were four years ago.
PLOUFFE: Listen, George, I think the American people understand that we got into a terrible economic situation, a recession, only that the Great Depression -- the only thing the country has ever seen like it. So they know we had a deep hole. It took us a long time to get into that hole, it's going to take a long time to out of it.
First of all, Governor Romney is offering the same, exactly policies that led to the recession in the first place.
One thing they didn't do last week in Tampa is explain how huge taxes for wealthy, cutting back regulations on Wall Street is going to lead to economic growth or help the middle class, because the answer is, it's not.
So what we're going to lay out this week, is we're going to explain to the American people and the middle class of this country, how we're going to continue to recover, but do more than just recover from the recession, to build an economy from the middle out. What Mitt Romney is going to offer America is top-down, trickle-down fairy dust. It didn't work then, it's not going to work now. And I don't think he advanced the ball last week, in convincing people, particularly the middle class in this country, that he would be a president that has them every day in mind as he's making decisions.
STEPHANOPOULOS: Yes or no, are Americans better off today than they were four years ago?
PLOUFFE: Listen, George, they did a good job of reciting all the statistics that everyone is familiar with. I think everybody understands we were this close to a great depression we staved that off. We're beginning to recover. We have a lot more work to do. We need to grow jobs more quickly, we need to grow middle-class incomes more quickly.
But the question for American people, is which path are we going to take? If we take Mitt Romney's path, economists have looked at this, the recovery would slow down, we wouldn't produce jobs. He would give huge tax cuts to people like himself and send a bill to the middle class and seniors.
So, the question is we're going to be far worse off if Mitt Romney is elected president. And he gets a chance to enact the same economic policies that created the mess in the first place.
STEPHANOPOULOS: So, it sounds like, a year ago, the president told me, I don't think Americans are better off than they were four years ago. You still can't say yes?

Author(s): Hodgson, Godfrey
ISBN 10: 0691117888. See all ISBN's
Publisher: Princeton University Press
This is an eTextbook Learn More
During the past quarter century, free-market capitalism was recognized not merely as a successful system of wealth creation, but as the key determinant of the health of political and cultural democracy. Now, renowned British journalist and historian Godfrey Hodgson takes aim at this popular view in a book that promises to become one of the most important political histories of our time. More Equal Than Others looks back on twenty-five years of what Hodgson calls "the conservative ascendancy" in America, demonstrating how it has come to dominate American politics.
Hodgson disputes the notion that the rise of conservatism has spread affluence and equality to the American people. Quite the contrary, he writes, the most distinctive feature of American society in the closing years of the twentieth century was its great and growing inequality. He argues that the combination of conservative ideology and corporate power and dominance by mass media obsessed with lifestyle and celebrity have caused America to abandon much of what was best in its past. In fact, he writes, income and wealth inequality have become so extreme that America now resembles the class-stratified societies of early twentieth-century Europe.
More Equal Than Others addresses a broad range of issues, with chapters on politics, the new economy, immigration, technology, women, race, and foreign policy, among others. A fitting sequel to the author's critically acclaimed America In Our Time, More Equal Than Others is not only an outstanding synthesis of history, but a trenchant commentary on the state of the American Dream.

2009 Mercedes-Benz C350 Problems
The camshaft adjuster solenoid (which is related to the variable valve timing system) may fail or timing chain/balance shaft components may wear, resulting in illumination of the Check Engine Light and various drivability issues. Mercedes-Benz has released a service bulletin outlining specific repair instructions depending on fault codes stored.
Vehicles equipped with a 7-speed automatic transmission may develop a rough shifting condition, most commonly going up from first to second gear and going down from third to second or second to first gear. Our technicians tell us this is due to an internal component failure. Mercedes has released updated parts; the transmission will need to be removed and disassembled to complete the necessary repairs.
Inside grab handles, the upholstery on the center console cover, and door trim panels can delaminate. Most commonly replacement of the affected part is necessary.

2009 Mercedes-Benz C350 Reviews
I AGREE, Biggest trade off is with the tires. I finally got into some Michelin's that are GREAT! they were a tad bit more pricey, and they can be rotated from side-to side.. that is the best part. i'm able to get more wear from these tires than the ones that are recommended by the manufacturer.
Now 12500 miles since new. Great drive train with great acceleration and braking. Service A done to Mobil One at 1/2 of dealer's cost. Easy maintenance! Summer tires are great, but trade-off is thread wear--may last another 8K. Use Winter tires/rims--great for the past 2 stormy winters in Northeast.

For those of you wondering how life is treating Ray Allen down in sunny Miami, here's last night's game recap from the Miami Herald: WORST OF LAST NIGHT: Ray Allen off his game Allen went 3 of 11 from the field and 1 of 5 from three-point range. He had seven points in 22 minutes. Maybe it was just an off night; maybe Allen is still adjusting to coming off the bench. Allen was first player off the bench and was paired with two other guards on the court, Wade and Norris Cole. Heat coach Erik Spoelstra went with the same rotation pattern in the third quarter. It's clear the Heat is still getting used to having Allen on the team. They don't exactly seem to know what to do with him yet. The signature single- and double-screens Boston ran for Allen haven't been completely integrated yet by the Heat. I'm not harping on Ray's poor shooting, because off-nights happen, especially in the preseason. I am slightly confused with the integration, because I thought that was going to be seamless. Ra...

Your Sept. 20 editorial advocates that Democrats in the Senate vote to "Confirm Roberts." Why? John G. Roberts Jr. has an extensive record of advocating positions that are in opposition to core Democratic beliefs; voting for his confirmation would be voting against those beliefs. Roberts will be confirmed. The American people assured that when they turned control of the Senate over to the Republicans. The Democrats are the opposition party, so why shouldn't they oppose? Your editorial makes no sense.
I was pleasantly surprised to read your editorial, "Confirm Roberts." For the past year or so your editorial page had become a joke. The L.A. in L.A. Times clearly stood for leftist agenda. One can only hope that with your recent change of personnel there will be a dawning of a new day.
Newport Beach
What a nasty, threatening little editorial that was: Confirm or else!
George Bush's choices, such as the goofy John Bolton for U.N. ambassador or Michael Brown for FEMA head, certainly show what his tastes are. I hope the Democrats and Republicans find the courage to vote Roberts down.

A new book called "Modi, Muslim and Media" written by the well-known feminist-turned-Modi acolyte released earlier this month, quotes Narendra Modi telling a maulana that he cannot openly come out and speak about the steps he took to control the 2002 riots because he fears that the Vishwa Hindu Parishad (VHP) may politically wipe him out ahead of the 2003 state elections.
The statement, is in sharp contrast, to Modi's, Hindutava image and reported roots in RSS and VHP.
"You will not see me fail you in action. But don't ask me to say it openly. VHP types will wipe me out. Elections are right round the corner," said Modi to an England-based Maulana, Isa Mansuri, when asked why Modi didn't defend himself in public.
Kishwar in the book strongly attempts to neutralise Modi's anti- Muslim image.
As per the book, the statement was made by Modi in 2003 during one of his visits to England for the Vibrant Gujarat Submit. The conversation reported in the book has been shown as an excerpt narrated by news journalist Rajat Sharma, who was reportedly present in the same room.
""Maulana Isa Mansuri did not let Modi speak for an hour; he spoke in the harshest tones and words. But Modi did not interrupt any of them for a minute. After they (Maulana and Mumbai based businessmen Zafar Sareshwallah) finished, Modi responded in detail with facts of each case they narrated......Then he told Maulana, " You know very well, I had been chief minister only for four and a half months. When this happened, I had no experience of administration. I had not even been an MLA till then. There, I did not have full grip over the administration," reads the excerpt quoting Modi.
The book at several other instances show Modi taking a stand against right wing organisations like VHP, Bajrang Dal etc to protect the interest of minorities.
As per the excerpts from the interview of Sareshwallah in the book, Modi admitted that it was a mistake to not let the films Fanaa or Parzania run in Gujarat theatres or let hoodlums get away with disrupting the Baroda College of Art exhibition.
Similarly account of V V Augestine from Kerala, former member of the National Minorities Commission, shares how in 2006 in the Dang tribal area, Christian community lived under the constant threat of VHP until Modi intervened.
"The VHP had become very active in the area resulting in a lot of tension. When they planned to organise a big Shabri Kumbh Mela in that area, the Christians became extremely nervous and feared that they would be attacked during that period We went to Modi with our apprehensions. Christian organisation demanded a ban on the Shabri Mela. Modi did not ban the mela because that would have given the VHP an excuse to create a ruckus that Hindus were being put down at the behest of Christians leading to more tension. He assured us that nobody would be allowed to indulge in violence or other forms of lawless behavior and issued instructions to the police commissioner of the area," reads the book.
Besides the instances given in the book, rift was reported between VHP and Modi last year too when the leaders of VHP openly condemned Modi for his speech in Patna saying he would build toilets first and temples later.

Kent Social Care cut by £19m

Council to cut almost a quarter of a billion pounds from its budget
Kent County Council is to cut almost a quarter of a billion pounds from its spending budget. Unions have raised concerns that the move could cost up to 1,500 jobs.
The council leader, Councillor Paul Carter, admits the level of savings needed to balance the local authority's budget is "eye watering", but he has pledged to protect frontline services. Iain McBride reports.
The interviewees are: Councillor Paul Carter, Leader of Kent County Council (Conservative); Councillor Roger Latchford, Kent County Council (UKIP); David Lloyd from the Unison union.
Protection for frontline services
Kent County Council leader Paul Carter has said he wants to protect frontline services, as the council prepares to cut £240m over the next three years.
Councillor Carter said the council was re-examining how it procured its services and that the scale of the cuts "makes your eyes water".
Three years to make savings
Kent County Council leader Paul Carter has said they need to cut £240m from the budget over three years. He called it an "extraordinary" level of saving.
Kent prepares for £240m cutbacks
This morning, Kent County council's leader Paul Carter will outline plans to cut spending by £240m in the next five years. The outsourcing of services and job cuts are amongst the expected measures.
Kent children's centres to close
Kent County Council is planning to close 20 children's centres across the county.
The council says it needs to make savings and the closures will make savings of at least £1.5m.
The children's centres provide early childhood services and important support for parents and carers.
Kent council is launching a 12-week consultation today to get the views of local parents and the wider community who use the centres.
Kent County Council is committed to continuing to provide the services we currently offer through our Children's Centres and continuing to make a difference to the futures of families we help through those centres. We need to make efficiency savings and will seek to do this by minimising property and management costs."

Council criticised for failing vulnerable child
Kent County Council has been severely criticised by local government watchdogs for its treatment of a 16-year-old boy who had been abandoned by his parents.
The Local Government Ombudsman says staff failed to properly care for the vulnerable teenager, who was left homeless. This report from Jamie Stephens includes an interview with Nigel Ellis, Investigations Director for the Local Government Ombudsman.
The report is followed by an interview conducted by our presenter Sangeeta Bhabra with Mairead MacNeil, the Director of specialist children's services at Kent County Council.
Concerns over lane rental
A spokesman for utility contractors who face paying for road works that cause congestion on during busy times on peak routes has said he's not convinced the scheme is needed.
But the National Joint Utilities Group Ltd (NJUG) said it wanted to place on record its appreciation for the inclusive and collaborative way in which Kent County Council consulted with it and its members in the development of its lane rental scheme. It added:
Whilst NJUG is yet to be convinced that lane rental will deliver substantial additional benefits over and above the existing legislation already available, we believe that Kent County Council's approach takes a sophisticated look at using lane rental in a very targeted way, balancing the need to reduce the unfortunate disruption which sometime arises from both utility and authority essential street works, with the need to invest in essential utility services and the road network, and not unnecessarily increasing consumers' and ratepayers bills. "
He said they looked forward to continuing to work with the council on the plan.
A12-week trial began in March after the scheme was given the green light by the Secretary of State for Transport, Patrick McLoughlin. Companies began incurring fines from 28th May 2013.
Road rental plan could be rolled out nationally
Plans to charge utility contractors for the disruption they cause digging up roads have won the support of Transport Minister Norman Baker MP, who said he would be watching how effective they were, ahead of a possible national rollout.
Under the plans, which cover more than 465 roads in Kent, utility companies will be charged a daily rate for the inconvenience caused by road works on popular routes at busy times.
Money paid into the scheme will be invested in further work to cut congestion in Kent.
I am pleased that Kent's pioneering lane rental scheme is now active. It provides a strong incentive to those carrying out road works on the busiest networks to make sure they complete improvements or repairs on time. This will help minimise disruption and congestion, but also provide a better service to drivers, cyclists and passengers. I look forward to seeing the results of the Kent and Transport for London schemes in due course, which will help me decide on the future rollout of lane rental at a national level."
Kent County Council said it was committed to keeping traffic moving, but it was difficult when companies scheduled road works on heavily-used roads during rush hour.
The Kent Lane Rental Scheme forced companies to really think about the scale and duration of works on our key routes, or face a sizeable charge for the disruption they cause for Kent's travelling public It is the perfect way to keep our network of roads as clear as possible and get drivers to where they need to be as quickly as possible; a truly remarkable scheme."
Plan to cut roadwork congestion
A scheme aimed at cutting congestion on Kent's busiest roads by charging companies lane rental while they carry out roadworks is now up and running.
The county council has set up the new Kent Lane Rental Scheme. Companies will now be charged up to £2,000 per day for the inconvenience caused by digging up the busiest roads on the network at peak time.
Kent is the first county council in the country to run the scheme, which is designed to get contractors to work on the roads during the night and at off-peak times, or to use techniques such as tunnelling more often to avoid closing roads.
Number of babies up for adoption has almost tripled
Kent County Council says the number of babies it has awaiting adoption have almost tripled. Its social services department says since the case of Baby P, there has been a big rise in the number of very young children and babies taken into care.

Mgarr Bus Terminus
From Victoria Bus Terminus to Mgarr Harbour the route is directly covered by the bus no. 25 or by the bus no. 42/43 via Nadur and Qala.
The stop is right next to ferry stop.
Price: Lm 0.2- / one way.
- Budget Travel
- Road Trip
- Backpacking
Ferry to Gozo
With a long time tradition, the regular ferry service from Malta to Gozo stops to Mgarr harbour.
The ticket bought at the departure from Cirkkewa, Malta is also valid for the return that's why at the embarkation on the ferry in Mgarr there is no need for checking-in.
The trip takes around 30 min and a beautiful view of Comino Island (the third inhabited island of the Maltese archipelago) can be admired.
Price: Lm 5-
- Beaches
- Sailing and Boating
- Cruise
There is no airport on Gozo so most people arrive by ferry from Malta. The regular ferry service (every 1/2 hour or so) runs from Cirkewwa on Malta across the narrow Gozo Channel to Mgarr. There is also a once a day ferry from Valletta (well, from the suburb of Pieta).
In addition there is a heliport on Gozo, so you can travel by helicopter from Malta to Gozo if you want. Helicopter transfer is included in the price of a two centre Malta/Gozo holiday with the holiday company we used. We prefer the ferry though!

Miley Cyrus will not be twerking on stage in the Dominican Republic after all.
The 21-year-old pop star and former Hannah Montana star's raunchy antics has spurred a government-run group to ban her from performing a scheduled show in the capital of Santo Domingo on Sept. 13, which would have marked her first concert in the country.
The Dominican Republic's national entertainment and radio commission (CNEPR) said in a statement on Thursday that the ban was issued because Cyrus performs "acts that go against morals and customs, which are punishable by Dominican law," local newspaper Hoy reported.
PHOTOS: 20 of Miley Cyrus' raunchiest Bangerz tour pics (NSFW)
Cyrus, who has for the past year raised eyebrows with her sexually charged Bangerz tour performances and onstage (and offstage) scantily clad looks, and organizers have not commented.
A poll commissioned by the outlet showed that 64 percent of participants agreed with the ban, while the rest opposed it, saying it violates freedom of expression.
The concert was announced in June, about four months after Cyrus began her Bangerz tour, which a Dominican Republic tourism site had promoted as "spectacular" and "highly anticipated."

DC sniper's Muhammad's execution set for tonight
RICHMOND, Va. Virginia's governor refused to spare the life of John Allen Muhammad and cleared the way for his execution Tuesday night for the sniper attacks in 2002 that left 10 dead and spread such fear people were afraid to go shopping, cut grass or pump gas.
The three-week killing spree in Virginia, Maryland and Washington, D.C., was carried out with a teenage accomplice who is serving life in prison without parole. Muhammad, 48, was to die by injection at 9 p.m. after he exhausted his court appeals and Gov. Tim Kaine denied clemency.
Muhammad's attorneys had asked Kaine to commute his sentence to life in prison because they said he was severely mentally ill.
"I think crimes that are this horrible, you just can't understand them, you can't explain them," said Kaine, a Democrat known for carefully considering death penalty cases. "They completely dwarf your ability to look into the life of a person who would do something like this and understand why."
Muhammad was sentenced to death for killing Dean Harold Meyers at a gas station in northern Virginia. He and his accomplice, Lee Boyd Malvo, also were suspected of fatal shootings in Alabama, Arizona, Louisiana and Washington state.
Prosecutors chose to put Muhammad and Malvo on trial in Virginia first because of the state's willingness to execute killers. He and Malvo were also convicted of six other murders in Maryland and both were sentenced to six life terms.
The death penalty was later ruled out for Malvo because the U.S. Supreme Court barred the execution of juveniles, who was 17 during the killing spree.
The motive for the shootings in the nation's capital region remains murky. Malvo said Muhammad wanted to use the plot to extort $10 million from the government to set up a camp in Canada where homeless children would be trained as terrorists. But Muhammad's ex-wife has said she believes the attacks were a smoke screen for his plan to kill her and regain custody of their three children.
Muhammad has never testified or explained why he directed the attacks that terrorized the Washington region, with victims gunned down while doing everyday chores. People stayed indoors, and those who had to go outside weaved as they walked or bobbed their heads to make themselves less of a target.
The terror ended Oct. 24, 2002, when police captured Muhammad and Malvo as they slept at a Maryland rest stop in a car they had outfitted so a shooter could hide in the trunk and fire through a hole in the body of the vehicle.
Muhammad had been in and out of the military since he graduated from high school in Louisiana and entered the National Guard. A convert to Islam, John Allen Williams would later change his name to Muhammad.
He joined the Army in 1985 and trained in Washington state as a combat engineer. He did not take special sniper training but earned an expert rating in the M-16 rifle – the military cousin of the .223-caliber Bushmaster rifle used in the sniper shootings.

And I'm tatted like a cholo
from Wiz Khalifa (Ft. IamSu! & Problem) – Bout Me Lyrics on Genius
In America, in general, the term "cholo" is used to refer to mexican-american's style on clothing and tattoos. They often have black ink tattoos all over the body, just like Wiz.
This isn't Wiz's first time comparing his tattoos to a Mexican's, in "Young Khalifa" he says

Locations to be decided at empowered committee meeting to be held today
The expert team, which was formed to scout for monorail stations sites in the city, has completed its study.
The locations where the stations will come up will be decided at an empowered committee meeting scheduled to be held on Friday.
Besides, in order to focus on monorail and hasten the work, the government has transferred and posted V. Paulraj, the managing director of Metropolitan Transport Corporation Limited (MTC) as managing director of Pallavan Transport Consultancy Services (PTCS) a couple of days back.
P.P. Rajendran, managing director of Tamil Nadu State Transport Corporation (Coimbatore), has replaced Mr. Paulraj.
The team comprising MTC, PTCS and a private consultancy was given a time period of ten days to study and come up with sites where monorail stations can come up.
"The team completed the study on time and have submitted a list of probable locations. The exact spots will be decided at an empowered committee meeting that is scheduled for Friday," said an official.
The government's keenness on the monorail project is evident from the speed at which various measures are being taken up.
"There is a need for a person who can exclusively concentrate upon monorail. Hence, the managing director of MTC was transferred," said an official.
The team, formed early this week, analysed the feasibility of the location to integrate different transport modes. Experts feel that stations should come up at places where a lot of people gather. "If they are not easily accessible, the mode will not be successful," said an expert. Promoters out of eight consortia of firms have been shortlisted. Some of the qualified firms are Hitachi and Bombardier, L&T, Gammon and IL&FS.
A committee, under the chairmanship of Chief Secretary Debendranath Sarangi, met about 10 days ago and zeroed in on the eligible consortia. The government has identified four corridors — Vandalur to Velachery (23 km), Poonamalee to Kathipara Junction (16 km), Poonamalee to Vadapalani (18 km) and Vandalur to Puzhal (54 km). Initially, work will be taken up on the first three corridors at a cost of Rs.8,500 crore. Work on the fourth corridor will be taken up later.

This yummy vegetarian dish is fast to make and is satisfyingly filling with cheese, spinach and in-season aubergine.
Cut the aubergines in half, place them on a baking tray and cook them in a pre-heated oven of 180c for no longer than 15 minutes. Once ready – allow them to cool out of the oven.
Scoop out the inside of the aubergine using a tablespoon creating a hollow cavity but make sure the skin is still intact and place the aubergine insides in a large bowl. Add in the chopped spinach, the parsley, the Pecorino cheese and the chopped tomatoes. Season with salt, pepper and 2 tbsp of olive oil and mix well.
Stuff the aubergines with the mixture and place them on a baking tray. Place the mozzarella on top, drizzle with the remaining oil and bake in a pre-heated oven of 180c for approximately 15 minutes until they are golden and the cheese has melted. Serve immediately with some warm crusty bread.
» Metric Converter
Chardonnay, Pinot Gris and Pinot Noir are the best wines to pair with Baked Aubergine with Spinach and Melted Cheese.

Recent Tasting Notes
Not my cup of Tea TTB. I figured since its May and it was 38 degrees this morning that this was a fitting tea to start with. Smells good. Sweet. Not much tea scent to it. Those little snowflakes are really cute. I can see where the cupcake title came from. It has a slight bit of green to it. But not enough for me to get a taste for what kind of base it is. Good hot but also good cold. I'm not a big fan of sugar in tea though so that brings it down a lil for me.
Not My Cup Of Tea TTB #7
I'm working through the box this morning, deciding what I still want to sample and packing up small amounts to try later this week and deciding what I want to add so I can get this monstrosity or monstros'o'tea back into circulation and I came across this delightful sounding tea…. Yellow cupcakes, vanilla icing , all in a tea with zero calories…. Yes please!
This is quite tasty! The cute little sugar snowflakes add a touch of sweetness and vanilla to the green tea base and I can taste a slight cake flavor with limited artificial aftertaste. Glad I tried this but since it's in the 90s here already I think it's time to lay off the winter teas and start planning for summer!
What a wonderful cold brewed cup of tea :)
I am so glad this tea tasted good because I have had bad experiences with Teas Etc in the past but this tea is quite good. I really enjoy the green teas flavor with this tea, it's not too mellow but not too strong either. I don't notice the banana flavor at all which I prefer because banana doesn't appeal to me in a tea. Overall this is one of the better cold teas I have brewed before
Order this tea and you will have regrets!
I have no idea what is in the 'natural flavor' but it taste like 5 year old perfume. This tea was thrown away immediately- sadly I did try tasting it even after the smelling (I had to double and trip take because I was baffled)
Teas etc makes a fancy green earl grey, I really like colors that the flowers provide. The taste is rather mild but that is expected when compared to say a black earl grey. Overall I am pleased with this tea because it's sweet while keeping a smooth bergamot taste.
The orange flavor is strong in this tea, too strong. It covers up the flavor of the oolong. It is tasty, just too flavored. I wish they had gone with a low key orange flavor.
I brewed this one in a 16oz Teavana Perfect Tea Maker/Gravity Steeper with 3 tsp leaf and 190 degree water for 3 min.
Flavors: Orange
I really do have a green tea obsession. Throw some sprinkles in and yep, I'll buy some. This is another tasty treat I cold brewed. You can really taste the smoothness of the green tea and the sprinkles add the sweetness this needed to make it taste just like a cupcake or rather the icing on top. I've tried it both hot and iced and enjoy it both ways.
Flavors: Cake, Green
Oh my oolong-goodness!
This is another surprising find from Amazon for about $6ish for 2 oz. I brewed it up on the instructions on the tin and it came out fantastic!
Dry there is a distinct floral smell. No real mint smell coming through.The first sips have a floral taste to them but as you continue to drink it, you get the minty overtones in there as well. You wouldn't think those two would go together as well as they do while you are drinking it. . .or at least I didn't it. I never thought I would like the floral-y type teas, but I might have to check some out.
Back to this particular blend. . .I'm going to have to remember this one when the holidays come around again. I've blown through the tin pretty quick. Hoping there is a tin or two still left on Amazon or the website for Teas Etc. I'm needing a refill!
Flavors: Floral, Mint
Just a fresh strong peppermint tea. Steeped for 10 minutes- 2 minutes over the recommended 8 minutes, because it has been in my cupboard for about 8 months. Was still fresh and rich tasting, and was excellent on it's own, as well as sweetened with a hint of splenda.
Flavors: Mint, Peppermint
This is a very unique tea, and perhaps very different from what people envision tea is. It is a smoked, black tea. It is rich and savory. This isn't a tea that one should add cream and sugar to. I simply brew it and sip at it, enjoying its smoky tones.
I scored it so high because it is a very different. While brewing it, those gorgeous, smokey smells tease the senses. I highly recommend this tea if you want something different, and if you like smokey flavors.
Flavors: Smoke
Okay, so I cheated and picked all the anise pieces out of my cup. (I put them back in the bag, so the boy will have an extra anisey cup when he comes to visit…) And then I brewed it pretty strong, with boiling water. But it's good! The pear is subtle, but it's there. Sweet with just a hint of spice. Goes well with my (slightly disappointing) rum caramel chocolate bar. :)
Sipdown no. 160 for the year 2014. It was overcast this afternoon as I went home and so I actually felt like drinking hot tea for the first time in a while. So I decided to polish off this sample.
More orange this time, and more flavor overall, but still not a favorite.
This is a nice sized sample in a sealed packet. Too much to be sipped down in one sitting. It's enough for two servings.
This has a faint orange fragrance in the packet, and I don't smell tea underneath. The leaves are dark with curls of orange peel among them.
After a rinse and an initial 15 second steep in the gaiwan, the liquor is darker than I expected, sort of a natural honey color. There's a dark oolong stonefruit aroma with a slight citrus note.
I get what Rabs said about this, there's an earthy flavor. Even after a very short steep it's almost bitter, which is disappointing. I get not much in the way of orange flavor. It's very faint. It could be a fair amount stronger without running the risk of overpowering the oolong base.
Second steep, 20 seconds. The liquor is darker, a sort of brandy color. More orange in the aroma, along with the typical dark oolong toastiness. Still not much orange in the flavor, and as dark oolongs go, this one doesn't seem to have a lot of flavor to the base, either. It's not bitter on this steep, but it doesn't have much complexity.
Third steep, 25 seconds. The flavor has opened up some. There's a bit more orange flavor, and a rather pleasant, thick mouthfeel. Some astringency and some peach-pit notes starting to emerge from what seemed before a sort of generic woodiness. A slight bitterness at the finish.
Fourth steep, 30 seconds. Pretty much the same as the third.
I may fiddle around with this through a few more steeps, but it's not doing much for me. It's drinkable, but it doesn't bowl me over.
Flavors: Orange Zest, Stonefruits
Sipdown no. 132 of the year 2014. A sample. Made in the gaiwan with short steeps starting at 15 seconds after a rinse.
In the packet, the leaves are so dark they look like black tea leaves. They smell a little like wood.
After steeping, they yield a caramel colored liquor that has a brisk, fruity aroma with a toasty, almost smoky note.
The flavor is more interesting and alive than the other dark oolongs I've had recently . (Those were all from Adagio.) I can see what they mean by the chocolate note. It's not as strong as the chocolate notes one finds in black teas, but it's there. It's not a sweet chocolate, more of a dark beany one around the edges. Very nice. The fruitiness here is more complex than in some dark oolongs where you basically feel like you're sucking on a peach pit, and that's the single note stonefruit flavor. This one isn't as woody/stoney, and is more reminiscent of the pulpy fruity part of an apricot.
It doesn't change as much from steep to steep as I'd expect, but the smoky notes come out around steep three, as does a little astringency which is interestingly coupled with a soft mouth feel.
There's a smoky, woody aftertaste. The steeped leaves are chocolate brown and have a mild woody scent with a sharp fruity note.
If I didn't have about a thousand other oolongs to taste, I would put this on the shopping list as I think it merits playing around with a bit more. As it is, while I like it quite a bit, it isn't completely knocking my socks off screaming "drop everything and buy me!"

Decision to be taken after studying HC stay order, says Akhilesh Yadav
The Samajwadi Party government suffered a setback on Friday as the Lucknow Bench of the Allahabad High Court stayed the GO on withdrawal of cases against persons accused of terror activities.
While referring the matter to a larger Bench, the court gave six weeks' time to the respondents, including the Central and State governments for filing their reply and four weeks for rejoinder thereafter.
The directive was given by a Bench of Justices Rajiv Sharma and Mahendra Dayal on a public interest litigation plea filed by Ranjana Agnihotri and five others. The petitioners had sought directions for quashing the GO.
On June 5, the High Court had directed the State to submit all documents related to the withdrawal of cases and had asked whether the consent of the Central government had been taken.
Chief Minister Akhilesh Yadav while stating that the directive would be respected said that he would first go through the entire court order. Talking to reporters after inaugurating a regional workshop on the National Health Insurance Scheme at the Indira Gandhi Pratishthan, Mr. Yadav said the government was only trying to fulfil its poll promise.
In its election manifesto, the Samajwadi Party had promised to withdraw cases against innocent persons, Mr. Yadav said

Park Lane (edition 2012)
by Frances Osborne, Susan Duerden (Narrator)
Work details
Park Lane by Frances Osborne
No current Talk conversations about this book.
Upstairs, downstairs. A wealthy young woman and one of her maids deal with disappointment and changing expectations on the cusp of World War I. Grace Campbell has given up her hopes of an office job and is working as a maid for the Masters family. Bea Masters is still unmarried at twenty-five and increasingly disenchanted with her life. Against her mother's wishes she wanders into the world of radical suffrage. Both women live in a world of secrets. Grace cannot tell her family that she has been reduced to domestic service. Bea cannot reveal her new political affiliations or her relationship with a wholly unsuitable man.
This is a book that is meant to turn on the drama of manners and class restrictions, but it did not end up being especially lively. I wasn't particularly interested in either of the main characters, though Grace was slightly more interesting than Bea. The ending was particularly unsatisfactory. The historicity isn't bad, but I had a hard time getting invested in the story.
We start out with two very different women in 1914, the privileged Beatrice and the housemaid Grace who both reside at 35 park Lane.
As do most wealthy women of that era who are not occupied with a family of their own they tend to get bored as does Bea & to her credit she does want to make a difference so she takes up the cause of the suffragettes with a little enticing by her wild and mysterious aunt Celeste (whom I really enjoyed & would have loved to read more about!) she becomes very involved much to her family's chagrin.
Both women move through time each of then taking on the concerns of the era, both falling in love and not realizing just how close they come in their very separate lives.
It seemed Bea's relationship with the "impoverished lawyer' was uncomfortable for her as well as me and I could not quite figure out why she seemed so drawn to him or him to her?
I enjoyed the first half of the book but, as I got to the second half ...I became kind of lost, it was confusing, very slow going and seemed to bounce around in time. I think had the author focused on either the suffragettes or the war as opposed to both it might have been more interesting. The ending made me crazy as well, I mean… what the heck Grace? And come on Michael…speak up man! All in all it was an interesting if not slightly irritating read!
3 stars is generous...
I've been fascinated with World War I and the years following it. This fascination goes beyond my fondness for Downton Abbey, Jacqueline Winspear's Maisie Dobbs series and the Charles Todd series of Detective Inspector Ian Rutledge, Bess Crawford mysteries. So when given the opportunity to read another well regarded book set in the period, I grabbed at the chance.
Park Lane is largely told from two perspectives: that of Bea Masters from "upstairs" whose family is known for its railroad money and Grace, a young girl working as a second housemaid in the Masters household.
We are first introduced to Grace and learn that she's entered service without informing her family. Her own mother's family owned textile mills but the family fortune has long since dissipated and while Grace has trained to serve as a secretary, she has had no luck securing a position. It was after weeks of unemployment that she resorted to applying as a housemaid. Her fellow servants regard her with some suspicion as they can tell she's no experience in service. Grace keeps up a good front, hiding her position from her family, sending money home to help support her parents and younger siblings, and in her time off trying to improve her typing and secretarial skills. As Grace settles into life at Park Lane, she finds herself slowly growing accustomed to the life and fighting a romantic entanglement until the War breaks.
When we meet Bea Masters, she is recovering from a bad love affair and is looking for purpose. She falls in with the more extreme Suffragettes and begins clandestinely assisting them in their more daring exploits. Encounters with the police, violence, escapes, and a chance meeting with a young man leads Bea to an unexpected path. The War breaks her ties with the Suffragettes and she volunteers to drive ambulances in France.
While I sympathized with Grace, I quickly grew impatient with and frustrated with Bea. This detracted from my enjoyment of Park Lane. However, the book seems to reflect the period quite well and I'd recommend it to others who are fond of historical fiction.

Park Lane, by Frances Osborne, was a very pleasant surprise! I had read and enjoyed Osborne's biography The Bolter, but for some reason I didn't expect much beyond the predictable Upstairs Downstairs storyline for her first work of fiction. The story, which focuses on a maid in a once-grand Park Lane home and the young lady of the house that she serves, quickly veers from the expected path and delves into the world of women's suffrage. When World War I breaks, the characters' lives are upended and their missions take on new meaning – I actually learned quite a bit about the role of British women during the war and women's fight for the vote in England. All in and a very good read!

"When eighteen-year-old Grace Campbell arrives in London in 1914, she's unable to fulfill her family's ambitions and find a position as an office secretary. Lying to her parents and her brother, Michael, she takes a job as a housemaid at Number 35, Park Lane, where she is quickly caught up in lives of its inhabitants-- in particular, those of its privileged son, Edward, and daughter, Beatrice, who is recovering from a failed relationship that would have taken her away from an increasingly stifling life. Desperate to find a new purpose, Bea joins a group of radical suffragettes and strikes up an intriguing romance with an impassioned young lawyer. Unbeknownst to each of the young women, the choices they make amid the rapidly changing world of WWI will connect their chances at future happiness in dramatic and inevitable ways" -- p.

Court rules Aga, wife not voters in Camarines Sur
A judge in Bicol has ordered the exclusion of actor Aga Muhlach and his wife Charlene from the voters' list of San Jose, Camarines Sur, endangering his candidacy for Congress.
In a 13-page ruling, Judge Noel Paulite ordered that the names of Muhlach and his wife be stricken off the list of voters in Barangay San Juan, San Jose, Camarines Sur, after they failed to comply with the six-months residency requirement for registered voters.
The actor is running for congressman in Camarines Sur's fourth congressional district. He will be up against Felix William "Wimpy" Fuentebella, son of last-term Deputy House Speaker Arnulfo Fuentebella.
In his order, Paulite said "respondents failed to comply with the six-months residency requirement."
Paulite said Mayor Antonio Chavez had revoked his "affirmation of the spouses' alleged residency" in San Jose while Cesar B. Chavez, the owner of the house that the Muhlachs leased, asked that the lease be terminated.
"Oddly, though, the Muhlach family was rarely seen occupying the house. As a matter of fact, it is but proper to construe that they almost never resided therein," Paulite said.
Election lawyer Romulo Macalintal, Muhlach's counsel, said they would bring the case to the Court of Appeals.
"I haven't seen the ruling but we will file a petition for certiorari at the Court of Appeals and secure a temporary restraining order (TRO) in order to stop the implementation of [Paulite's] order," Macalintal said.
He said Paulite's ruling does not mean that Muhlach's name would not be included in the ballot that would be printed by the Commission on Elections.
"That won't happen because the order is not yet final and executory. Unless the Court of Appeals does not issue a TRO, but we are confident that the appellate court will rule in our favor," Macalintal said.
"There is a similar case involving the son of former Zamboanga del Norte Rep. Romeo Jaslosjos, where I was also the lawyer, and we won in the Court of Appeals," he added.
The Muhlachs had asked Paulite to inhibit himself from the case because the Fuentebellas were supposed to have been instrumental in the judge's appointment to his post.
"[That] is unfounded and a misconception… To entertain such erroneous notion is a pathetic fallacy," Paulite said. Philip C. Tubeza
