Photos: Etna Volcano in Sicily Erupts on January 6, 2012
Posted by mleyba on 2012-01-06 15:07:20 tags: Photo
Europe's highest active volcano rumbled back to life yesterday as Italy's Mt Etna on the Mediterranean island of Sicily spewed a column of hot ash high into the sky.
The eruption did not interrupt flights although officials did hold a crisis meeting at the nearby Catania Airport.
The Catania Institute of Geophysics and Vulcanology said the volcano sent out a column of ash up to 5000m above sea level and that lava was seen flowing from a new crater on the southeast side of the summit.
The 3295m peak regularly awakens to spew lava and ash, eruptions that sometimes last for days at a time and can force the closure of Catania Airport.

We know — no one really enjoys tax time, but we here at DOR really do appreciate the time you give in filing your income tax returns with us every year – hey, we have to file tax returns too! And now that April 15 has come and gone, and the dust is settling from the 2008 tax filing season, perhaps you're wondering how you and your return fit into the larger state filing picture – and what's coming up for next year.
If so, check out Commissioner Navjeet Bal's recent filing season video below. The Commissioner runs down a number of tax stats such as how many MA returns were, and will be (after extensions), filed (hint: it's over 3 million), the average refund amount, e-file numbers, the health care reform effort, and some tips for what to do if you, or someone you know, is having a tough time paying their taxes.
Thanks for taking the time to watch — and for filing those returns!

14. An anti-theft and safety mechanism for bottles comprising:
a) an external support body;
b) locking and unlocking means, said locking and unlocking means operating transversally to a longitudinal axis of the support body, said locking and unlocking means being adapted to be magnetically attracted outside the support body in order to unlock the anti-theft and safety mechanism, the locking and unlocking means comprising at least one sliding pin made of ferromagnetic material cooperating with elastic means and connected to a locking saw-toothed slider, the locking and unlocking means being contained in a housing projecting from outside the support body; and
c) means for securing the anti-theft and safety mechanism onto a neck of a bottle, the means for securing comprising a locking element comprising and coaxial with a housing element of the neck of the bottle, the locking element being equipped with flexible locking wings, the housing element being equipped with a saw-toothed rail adapted to operatively cooperate with the locking saw-toothed slider and with slits adapted to allow the locking wings to pass therethrough; and
wherein the support body is internally equipped with longitudinal wings adapted to cooperate with the locking wings, each one of the longitudinal wings being equipped with a tapered portion and with a narrowed portion.

16. A mechanism of

20. A mechanism of
The present invention refers to an anti-theft and safety mechanism for bottles.
As known, the prior art proposes anti-theft mechanisms, typically operating magnetically, adapted to contain therein and protect objects such as, but not limited to, compact disks, DVD, musicassettes, videocassettes and the like, or for eyeglasses, or to be attached to pieces of clothing and the like.
These mechanisms are typically activated on the product to be protected when this latter one is exposed for being sold and are removed, generally through detaching devices, upon payment for the product itself.
What cannot be found in the prior art however is an anti-theft device that can be applied to any type and shape of bottle in such a way as to prevent possible thefts, and above all to dissuade, already visually, possible thieves, and that can be easily and quickly removed, as it happens for existing anti-theft mechanisms, through a suitable detaching device.
Moreover, there are particular situations in which it would be surely interesting to have available a safety mechanism that can be easily and practically used while being at the same time inexpensive, that prevents an accidental or unauthorised consumption of a bottle, such as, for example, the case in which such contents is a harmful substance, a drug or an alcoholic substance: such mechanism would therefore be extremely useful, for example, in domestic applications in which, rather too frequently, liquid detergents and various harmful substances (hydrocarbons, disinfectants, insecticides, alcoholic beverages) are arranged in anonymous bottles, to avoid an accidental or unauthorised consumption or use of such substances. Obviously, such mechanism would be better useful when there are children.
Therefore, object of the present invention is providing an anti-theft and safety mechanism that can be applied to any type of bottles and that can be easily and quickly removed by using a suitable detaching mechanism.
Another object of the present invention is providing an anti-theft and safety mechanism for bottles that, in general, prevents an unauthorised consumption or use of the contents (such as, for example, alcoholic beverages, drugs, harmful substances) of the bottles themselves.
The above and other objects and advantages of the invention, as will appear from the following description, are obtained by an anti-theft and safety mechanism for bottles as claimed in claim 1. Preferred embodiments and non-trivial variations of the present invention are claimed in the dependent Claims.
The present invention will be better described by some preferred embodiments thereof, given as a non-limiting example, with reference to the enclosed drawings, in which:
With reference to the Figures, a preferred, but not limiting, embodiment of the anti-theft and safety mechanism for bottles 1 of the present invention is shown. It will be immediately obvious to the skilled people in the art that numerous modifications and variations can be made to the described mechanism 1, without departing from the scope of the invention, as defined in the enclosed claims.
With reference to the preferred embodiment shown in the Figures, the anti-theft and safety mechanism 1 for bottles of the invention substantially comprises:
Further, the anti-theft and safety mechanism 1 for bottles of the invention can be provided with a known alarm detecting system.
In particular, with reference to
The securing means are composed, in the present preferred embodiment, of two parts: a locking element 5 equipped with flexible locking wings 6 (in the Figures such wings are eight and are joined in pairs, but it is obvious that they could be in a different number and arranged differently, though keeping analogous functionalities of the present invention) containing and coaxial with a housing element 7 of the neck of the bottle, equipped with a saw-toothed rail 8 adapted to operatively cooperate with the locking saw-toothed slider 13 and with suitable slits 7 a adapted to allow a passage of the locking wings 6. The above-described securing means are therefore contained inside the support body 2, are coaxial therewith and are adapted to longitudinally slide therein.
In particular, the support body 2 is internally equipped with particularly-shaped longitudinal wings 4 adapted to cooperate with the locking wings 6, as will be described below. Moreover, the support body 2 is equipped with a housing 3, having in particular a sliding seat 3 a of the pin 9, adapted to house the locking and unlocking means and to allow the cooperation with a detaching device, particularly in the preferred embodiment a magnetic detaching device.
The alarm detecting system of the mechanism 1 is, for example, shown in
With reference now to
With reference now to
In particular,
With reference to
With reference then to
It is clear that the locking and unlocking means, instead of having a magnetic operation, could mechanically or electrically/electronically operate, associated with a suitable detaching device, even integrated into the mechanism 1 itself, without departing from the scope of the present invention.
It is further clear that, by suitably arranging the sizes of the various components of the mechanism 1 according to the present invention, particularly the support body 2 and the securing means, it is possible to use the mechanism 1 with any type and shape of commercially existing bottles.
As already previously described, the advantageous applications of the present invention are numerous: in fact, in addition to having wide chances of use in commercial activities for preventing and dissuading thefts while guaranteeing a simple and practical use both during its operating positioning and during its removal, due to being inexpensive in its realisation that is clear from what has been described above, it can found a wide application also in domestic or industrial fields to prevent the accidental or unauthorised used of certain substances.

MCB rounded off a very busy week with their Sunday afternoon concert at Scotch College Chapel. The band also participated in Saturdays Colonel Light Gardens Dawn service and led the congregation back to the RSL hall for breakfast; this was immediately followed by the annual Adelaide Anzac parade, all played under cool blue skies. Fortunately the rain held off for us!
The afternoon event was our most successful concert to date with over 150 attending.
The music was a mixture of anthems, hymns and marches with a Ceremonial Sunset featuring the Evening Hymn, Last Post & Reveille and Sunset, Advance Australia Fair and the playing of a beautiful arrangement of Eternal Father Strong to Save.
The audience were given a taster of our next big Marches concert with a rendition of Heart of Oak and some shorten versions of Dambusters, Aces High and Colonel Bogey.
The concert was also an opportunity for the first outing of 4 brand new Yamaha cornets for our solo cornet bench. They certainly had a good working out on Sunday afternoon!
We were also fortunate to have Peter Milter's brother in law's magnificent display of World War 1 & 11 memorabilia. I have included some photos of the items on display.
With the thermometer hovering around 40C this weekend, Mitcham City Brass were rolling up their costumed sleeves in the air-conditioned comfort of The Hungarian Club, Norwood to present their 2015 Fringe Concert show "Animation Antics". Dress was strictly costume only and from the pictures taken at the show, some members really got into theme!
"Prince Charming" alias MD Steve Packer kicked off the musical extravaganza with a Goff Richards arrangement of "The Flintstones" followed by the cry of "WILMA" from the band!
Paul Dukas' the "The Sorcerer's Apprentice" featured in the Fantasia 1940 cartoon, transcribed by Steven Packer, was played complete with a back projected screen. In contrast Fantasia 2000, The Final Hymn from "The Firebird" was played with chorale precision.
Our first soloist of the evening Peter McIntyre gave an excellent rendition of Rossini's "Largo Al Factotum" on the Euphonium. The Animation Antics theme had given the MD a lot of scope in the selection of music. It also gave him the opportunity of informing the audience of his encyclopaedic knowledge of the Disney cartoon creations!
Barry Gray's "Thunderbirds" theme march followed.
We were then introduced to our guest singer Jasmine Garcia. Jasmine a young Adelaide music student and junior Broadway performer sang beautifully for the audience "Colours of the Wind" "Somebody to Love", "Angel", "Part of your World" from "the Little Mermaid". Jasmine performed as our guest artist throughout our event.
The tempo increased with Alan Fernie's arrangement of the theme to "Mission Impossible". "Hallelujah" from Shrek was beautifully played before our MD Steve picked up his new Eb bass and thrilled the crowd with an up tempo version of "The Bare Necessities" conducted by Ian Collins dressed as the character Dick Dastardly from Whacky Races!
"The Chicken Run" movie theme was next, complete with kazoo solos. The first half ended with the overture from "The Barber of Seville", the band's first ever live performance of the famous Rossini selection.
"The Incredibles" commenced the second half of music followed by our 5 member percussion section's performance of the "Tarzan" soundtrack highlights. The magnificent sound of "Colours of the Wind" from Pocahontas, an arrangement by Frank Bernaerts, featured the soaring sounds of our euphonium and horn sections.
"Symphonic Highlights from Frozen" an arrangement by the American composer Stephen Bulla, provided an insight into modern cartoon film music arrangements, and was a clear favourite of those children present!
Jasmine Garcia featured again in the second half with numbers from the Disney shows.
"You've Got a Friend in Me" from Toy Story proved an appropriate choice as 3 band members were in themed costume of Buzz Lightyear and Woody. "If I Didn't Have You" from Pixars Monsters Inc, a computer animated comedy cartoon proved popular.
To end the concert the band pulled all the themes together with Goff Richards' magnificent arrangement of "A Disney Fantasy".
You can't go home without an encore and so "On the Quarter Deck" got dusted off to advertise our next concert, "Tribute to the Anzacs" which will be held on Sunday 26 April, 2015.
Scenes from the MCB opening concert for the Adelaide Fringe
The band took part in its first public performance of the year at the annual Australia Day ceremony at Carrick Hill.
We look forward to seeing you all at our next major event at the Adelaide Fringe Festival shortly. Tickets are now on sale.
Mitcham City Brass have been very busy this month. The band recently attended the Mitcham Councils annual "Carols by the Creek Concert"
This was followed by the Blackwood Pageant last Friday and Saturday it was off to Port Pirie to support their annual pageant. Sunday saw the band in Meningie for their pageant. The MCB is happy to support district associations and Meningie were thrilled to have our band lead their procession.
Some of us will support Enfield Brass Band this Saturday at Victor Harbour so if you are not yet "pageanted out" come and support the bands this Saturday.
Tamina Judd our band secretary also took part in the "Brass Knockers" concert this Sunday. This was an all ladies affair to support breast cancer.
click to listen to Brass Knockers excerpts http://vimeo.com/113832956
Following our annual breakup party the band will be resting until the 12th of January when rehearsals resume in preparation of our Fringe Concerts, see you there!
The band has again been very busy providing music and entertainment. Some of our recent events include the opening of the bowling season at Happy Valley Bowling Club. This ceremony again enjoyed magnificent sunshine and the band put on a sparkling concert in the afternoon to a packed audience.
On the 12th of October the band performed in a much anticipated concert performance of "All Hands on Deck", at Scotch College. This was a combined band event with Unley Concert Band. Each band selected music with a naval theme and performed separately and then combined forces with a narrated performance of "The Battle of Trafalgar". This concert has been a pipe dream of our MD for some time. It was a spectacular performance which stirred the audience. The only thing missing was the cannon smoke and cordite!
Mitcham Village Music Cultural Day was on last Sunday and the band played in the blazing sun for an hour of light concert music to a good local crowd. Also on display was an illustrated history of Mitcham City Brass complete with old photos, uniforms and instruments associated with the band history. Of particular note was the band bass drum which has been restored and was illustrated in a 1922 photo of the band. We hope to put on display some of these old photos on our web shortly.
Coming events include the Mitcham Carols by the Creek on 30th of November, and several pageants which the band will participate in, Port Pirie, Meningie and the Blackwood Pageant. We hope to see you there supporting the band.
We thank all our supporters for their magnificent support in making 2014 a great year for the band.
This year the State Championships were combined with the Hahndorf Band Festival in a variety of venues including "The Old Mill" for Brass Bands, St Michael's Church for Concert Bands and for the own choice march in the newly commissioned Rotunda in the Pioneer Memorial Gardens. The Rotunda has been named in memory of one of Hahndorf's pioneering bandsman, the late Lawrence W E Kramm. The Parade of Bands were bands are adjudicated, on inspection, deportment marching formation and musical skills whilst playing a musical instrument brings out the best rivalry amongst musicians and drum majors!
After many weeks of intense rehearsals both in and out of band rooms, the contest took place in the beautiful historic village of Hahndorf under magnificent blue skies. The event for the first time was live streamed to the world on www.brassbanned.com
Whilst MCB did not win, we put in a very solid performance, attaining 3rd place.

Asia Program
As the United States rebalances its diplomatic and military focus toward Asia, some analysts have voiced concern about what a greater U.S. presence in the region might mean for cross-Strait relations. While ties between China and Taiwan have improved in recent years, will the U.S. pivot toward Asia shape the further evolution of cross-Strait relations? Will other Taiwanese interests be impacted by the rebalance? Could Chinese uneasiness about the rebalance work to Taiwan's detriment? From Washington's perspective, how does Taiwan fit into the pivot?

After more than half a century, Congressionally-funded U.S. broadcasting remains the leading edge of American soft power—the principal means by which the United States speaks directly to less free and impoverished nations.

From Challengers to Partners? Relations Between Human Rights NGOs and their Home Governments from the 1970s on
January 30, 2013 // 12:00pm — 12:45pm
History and Public Policy Program
The concept of human rights acquired global significance during the 1970s, spurred by the activities of a growing number of non-governmental organizations (NGOs) responding to state repression in Chile, South Africa, the Warsaw Pact states, and elsewhere. Key interlocutors for NGOs like Amnesty International and Helsinki Watch were their home governments, whom they influenced through a combination of public campaigning and private lobbying. Crucially, it seems that during this period human rights NGOs experienced a trajectory from 'outsider' to 'insider' status. Does this mean that they paid a costly price for their newfound influence, namely abandoning their original 'apolitical' appeal and becoming less impartial and independent? Or should we understand this to be their success in transforming the character of international politics?

The early Christians lived their lives in the Lord, for the sake of the world. They exhibited a holy boldness; because they internalized the faith they professed and allowed it to transform every aspect of their lives. They experienced the transforming power of the Holy Spirit. They manifested the gifts of the Spirit. They allowed the fruits of the Spirit to be borne in their lives. Do we? We can! We can turn our world upside down - with our words and with the witness of our lives - because the Resurrection makes all things new, beginning right now!
Catholic Online (www.catholic.org)

CHESAPEAKE,VA (Catholic Online) - At the Easter Vigil we had the joy of baptizing eleven adults, five children, and receiving ten Christians of other communities into the full communion of the Catholic Church.
It was an extraordinarily joyful celebration which lasted over three hours. I have heard similar reports from all over. Just when some people are so eager to count the Catholic Church out, she is rising up with healing in her wings, awakening like a sleeping giant!
On Easter Sunday my wife and I went to visit two of our adult children in a nearby city to share an Easter meal. It was a wonderful day of celebration, feasting and laughter.
We spent the evening. On Easter Monday morning, I greeted one of my adult children with "Happy Easter". She replied, "that was yesterday."
I took the time to explain that Easter is actually celebrated for eight days, an Octave, for good reason. She seemed somewhat underwhelmed by my assertion.In fact, she was a bit annoyed with me.
I further explained that the Octave unfolds into a fifty day season of celebration. Finally, I suggested that the Resurrection was meant to lead us into a new way of living. She rolled her eyes and said she wanted a cup of coffee.
As the day unfolded, I reflected on the fact that many Christians live as though Easter Sunday is just one day; a day in which we commemorate the historical fact that Jesus was indeed raised from the dead.
However, there seems to be little regard for the implications of that fact, that He really was raised, in the lived experience of our daily lives. This year, we can choose to fully experience the grace of Easter. Jesus is alive! He is with us! By embracing this Liturgical season - and allowing the Holy Spirit to awaken its deep meaning - we can enter more deeply into living the Easter Way.
With the Mass of Easter day we began the Octave, eight days of feasting on the readings which Holy Mother Church sets out on the table of the Ambo, letting them enter into us and change us. We can respond to the invitation to the banquet table, the Altar, and receive the Risen One in the most Holy Eucharist, becoming what we consume.
Throughout this Octave we can hear or read the marvelous post Resurrection accounts. We will follow the extraordinary changes which occurred in the early Apostles as the power of this Resurrection fashioned them into being living witnesses for the Lord and the Christian faith.
More importantly, we can decide to let the same power of the Resurrection make us into living witnesses to the Resurrection, disciples of the Lord, and empowered examples of the truth of the Christian faith, for this hour in history. The choice is ours.
We celebrate Easter for fifty days. At its end, we celebrate the next great Feast, the Feast of Pentecost. Alleluias will permeate our worship - but they are also meant to inform our lives. That is because, in those often quoted words of the great western Church Bishop, Augustine, "we are an Easter people and alleluia is our song."
Everything really is different because that Tomb is empty. We are different because we have been raised up with Christ. (Col.3) When we cooperate with grace, we can begin to live this difference in a new lifestyle.
Christianity is meant to become a new way of being a human person, a new way of living in Jesus. We are not only saved from - sin and death - but saved for - a new way of living!
We really are meant to become an Easter people. The phrase is more than a nice sentiment. In an age which is steeped in darkness, we are the light of the world because the Risen Jesus lives His life now, in, through and with us.(Matt. 5:14) We bring Goodness Himself to the earth which was created through Him and is now being recreated in Him.
Because Jesus has been raised, heaven has come to earth and earth can now come to heaven. Because Jesus has been raised, the new creation has already begun. The seed of the kingdom is manifested in the Church which is His Risen Body, the sign of the new heaven and new earth.
The Church is meant to become the home of the whole human race. In her, all men and women can be set free from the Law of sin and death. At her altar we can graze, being fed on His Word and nourished on His Body and Blood, healed by His Oil of Mercy and prepared for eternity.
As we follow the wonderful story recorded in the Acts of the Apostles, we need to decide that it is still being written - in and through us! What happened to those early Christians can happen to us!
The witness of the early Church revealed the power of the Resurrection at work in the lives of ordinary men and women who become extraordinary by living their lives in Him. It is meant to be our lived experience as well.
No longer afraid, those witness of the Resurrection, in the words of the Acts of the Apostles, "Turned the world upside down with their preaching." (Acts 17:6) They became so configured to the Lord that they lived and died like Him.
We are living in a new missionary age. It is time to let the story of the Resurrection be written in our own lives. By the power of the same Holy Spirit which raised Jesus from the dead, we can live a new way of life.
The early Christians lived their lives in the Lord, for the sake of the world. They exhibited a holy boldness; because they internalized the faith they professed and allowed it to transform every aspect of their lives.
They experienced the transforming power of the Holy Spirit. They manifested the gifts of the Spirit. They allowed the fruits of the Spirit to be borne in their lives. Do we?
We can! We can turn our world upside down - with our words and with the witness of our lives - because the Resurrection makes all things new, beginning right now!
Easter is more than a Day; it is a way of living our lives in Jesus Christ. Darkness has been scattered by the Light which broke forth from that empty tomb. That Light is meant to infuse our daily lives with the radiance of Resurrected love.
It is time to live the Easter Way!

- Canola oil
- 1 2-pound butternut, buttercup or acorn squash
Try this recipe with:
- Preheat oven to 400°F. Brush a rimmed baking sheet with oil.
- Cut squash in half and scrape out seeds and membranes. Place the squash, cut-side down, on the prepared baking sheet. Bake until soft, 35 to 45 minutes for buttercup or acorn squash, 40 to 50 minutes for butternut. Let cool slightly.
- Scoop the squash flesh into a food processor. Pulse until smooth. For a chunkier texture, mash squash with a potato masher.
Tips & Notes
- Squash Options
- Fresh winter squash can be difficult to peel and cut. To soften the skin slightly, pierce squash in several places with a fork. Microwave on high for 45 to 60 seconds, heating it just long enough to slightly steam the skin, not actually cook the flesh. Easier still, buy ready-peeled squash in season or frozen pureed squash.

During Ramadan, the gap between meals ranges from 12 to 15 hours, which can be a problem since diabetics are advised to have regular and timely meals.
In 1995, India had 19.4 million diabetics. Within 19 years, that number had more than tripled to 66.8 million in 2014, according to the IDF.
Incorporating routine pet care in diabetes self-care plan can significantly improve monitoring of the disease, resulting in lower blood glucose levels.
Diabetes is becoming increasingly common, particularly in rapidly developing countries like India, but most people with diabetes are unaware that they have the condition, researchers said.
The US (FDA) has approved a phase II clinical trial for testing the ability of a promising vaccine to reverse advanced Type-1 diabetes.
Researchers found that prolonged exposure to a toxin produced by Staphylococcus aureus bacteria can cause Type-2 diabetes.
The findings indicate that clinicians should consider screening middle-aged patients with Type-1 diabetes for cognitive difficulties.
Diabetic retinopathy occurs when the normal blood vessels in the eye are replaced over time with abnormal, fragile blood vessels.

Anna Kendrick-Darius Rucker Beer Pong Game Turns into Sing-Off

Consider that one for a second. Either team could have the edge, but if you watch the video, you'll see one of them clearly has a bit more experience bouncing ping-pong balls into keg cups. (And no worries: Today subbed out actual beer for root beer.)

"We believe our strength is rooted in our core values: putting people first, pursuing excellence, embracing change, acting with integrity and serving our world. These values are our legacy and our future. As we pursue our vision of making Marriott the #1 hospitality company in the world, we never lose sight of our founding principles and our proud heritage. Our business is always evolving…but we'll always stay true to who we are." Marriott website.
I just returned home from an unfortunate stay at the Springhill Suites south in Austin, TX. Going during SXSW I expected for the hotel to be busy, which it really wasn't to my surprise. Despite this the Staff seemed overwhelmed and irritable. I was immediately met with attitude by one of the front desk staff members.
Backing up a bit when the room was booked months ago we were told that the double queen suite would be comfortable for 4 adults and had a privacy wall. What they did not mention was that the privacy wall was not between the beds but instead in-between the couch (uncomfortable) and the two beds. They also explained that the room was spacious (nope).
When we arrived we immediately realized that there would not be enough room for 4 adults. There was little to no space between the bed and TV and there was almost no reason to use the closet since you had to wedge yourself in the corner of the room between the bed and closet to open the door then you were trapped, this made unpacking very difficult. I was also surprised to see NO drawers other than the one on the tv stand that was not worth putting anything in. For 4 nights I had to deal with living out of a suitcase, which for a girl is not so easy. The sink space was almost nonexistent and for 4 people it made it quite crowded.
When we went down to the front desk to explain the situation they staff was not so helpful. They explained that they could get us a second room at less than half of what we paid ($409.98 a night). We learned quickly that this was the rate that they had online and Expedia had an even lower rate. They threw around the word accommodate like they were trying to give us a deal since we were inconvenienced and uncomfortable in our room. When I explained to them that this was not accommodating us that they should be giving us some kind of deal since we spent over 1800 on the room for the 4 nights they explained that the computer tells them the rate they can offer (lie). I asked if they can discount it they again said they could only do what the computer tells them (lie). I explained that I could get a better deal on Expedia and she had the nerve to tell me that Expedia does not guarantee a room (bold faced lie). Finally I told her that I would be emailing Marriott to explain the attitude and lies I had been told and it was like a magic switch. All of a sudden she was able to give us a second room for free for 2 nights, but only 2 because they were all booked up (LIE). We took what we could and had to be inconvenienced for only 2 night of our trip instead of all 4.
Overall the staff was extremely poor. I did write an email and I am waiting to hear back. I will update yelp when I receive a message back with their response. I do not think I will stay in another Springhill suites and Marriott is not high on my list of hotels to visit after this experience. Overpriced rooms and definitely not worth what I paid for.
I was however happy about the free WI-FI.

Posted by Reviewer1052411 on Sep 19, 2012
Have been looking for this all over - hard to find in my area. Also finding supplements without stearates is difficult. Mg Gly is gentle to the stomach and the liquid form is very easy to take (unlike caps/tabs). Thanks, iherb, for stocking this! Update Sept. 2012: Rec'd a new bottle and there was three-quarters of an inch of solid, crystalline something in the bottom of the bottle. Tried to remix it into the liquid, using a stainless steel knife, but did not succeed. Do not know exactly what has fallen out of the solution, whether it's agave syrup or the actual magnesium.
I bought this for my kid.

Posted by AllyAw on Apr 28, 2014
I give 2-3ml to my child when he is still quite active before bedtime and he likes the earthy syrupy flavor. Magnesium is an important supplement and as a child, he will not have enough because of his restricted diet. So a dash of magnesium will help in a growing boy with the calcium that he gets from his milk & vegetables+ the vitamin D drops he gets everyday to build strong bones and teeth! ======================================================================================================= If you found this review helpful, please let me know by clicking the "Yes" button below the review. I have more reviews in mypage. . Thank you!

Magnificent - Easy on stomach and good absorption I hope iherb carries this forever!
Best Absorption, Best Forms of Mg
1 person found the following review helpful
Posted by Reviewer1978242 on Feb 18, 2015
This combines the two best forms of Magnesium: Malate and Glycinate. Both are the highest quality forms of Mg with zero digestive disturbances. I gave it 4 stars instead of 5 because it's sweetened with agave nectar instead of stevia as I have Candida and shouldn't consume any sugar, but it's the gentlest most effective Mg product I've tried.
taste is good
1 person found the following review helpful
Posted by debraananda on Oct 20, 2011
I have been taking 2 desertspoons in a glass of water now for a month and have still been getting cramps in my feet and legs, so I have had to add magnesium chloride.his combination seems to work. I think next time I might just stick with Magnesium Chloride, even though the taste is shocking.

The daughter of a disgraced earl, she matched wits with a prince.
It is the fourteenth century, the height of the Medieval Age, and at the court of King Edward III of England, chivalry is loudly praised while treachery runs rampant. When the lovely and high-spirited Joan of Kent is sent to this politically charged court, she is woefully unprepared for the underhanded maneuverings of her peers.
Determined to increase the breadth of his rule, the king will use any means necessary to gain control of France—including manipulating his own son, Edward, Prince of Wales. Joan plots to become involved with the prince to scandalize the royal family, for she has learned they engineered her father's downfall and death. But what begins as a calculated strategy soon—to Joan's surprise—grows into love. When Joan learns that Edward returns her feelings, she is soon fighting her own, for how can she love the man that ruined her family? And, if she does, what will be the cost?
Filled with scandal, court intrigue, and prominent figures of the Medieval Age, The First Princess of Wales has at its center a wonderful love story, which is all the more remarkable because it is true. Karen Harper's compelling, fast-paced novel tells the riveting tale of an innocent girl who marries a prince and gives birth to a king.
