I'm getting ready to click the buy button for a XO-1. I was just wondering if I should order a sway bar kit to install on the XO? I realize my ERBE is a completely different animal, but the sway bars I out on it made a huge difference in handling. Is this the case with the XO? Is it ok with out it?
Thanks, Bill

Last week, Clinton Funeral Service acquired a therapy dog.
Mollie, a 2-year-old King Charles Spaniel, is training for certification. That includes learning obedience commands and overcoming any fear of objects she may encounter such as hospital equipment. Her training also includes the recognition of grief and how to comfort people.
The concept may be new to some people, but therapy dogs have been around for about 60 years, says Darriel Ezell, co-owner of Clinton Funeral Service.
The idea of therapy dogs started in World War II as a way of lifting the spirits of troops and the wounded. It was Dr. Mayo of Mayo Clinic fame who saw how a visiting soldier's dog lifted spirits and actually promoted the healing process among the wounded, Ezell says.
Dogs have helped people with Alzheimer's, cancer and people recovering from surgery. They have helped children with learning disabilities or autism. Therapy dogs have even been used in dentist offices to help patients that are afraid of the dentist chair.
"With this concept, we have brought a therapy dog into the funeral home. If there ever was a place to promote healing, this is it," says Ezell. "I know of nursing facilities and doctors offices that have therapy dogs, but I do not know of any funeral home anywhere around that has one. We are the first in our area to offer this type of care to our families. The best medicine always wags its tail."
Clinton Funeral Service also lends Mollie out for visit schools, nursing centers, and churches free of charge.

If Mad Men's Jessica Pare only cultural contribution was the musical Prozac known as "Zou Bisou Bisou," she'd still definitely deserve special mention on this site (and in the history books). But as it happens, she is also incredibly gorgeous and has gone on to become our TV heartthrob of the season. Yes we admit it: We have a crush on Don Draper's new wife. And if he found out, he'd probably make this face.
Thanks to the sixties setting of the show, we're used to seeing Jessica rocking seriously groovy classic vintage styles. In fact, it's kind of gotten to the point that we sometimes totally forget that Ms. Pare exists right now in 2012! And she still looks just as gorgeous as she did in 1966. How many people can say that!? (OK, maybe Cher…) In honor of Jessica's 30th birthday today, we've assembled 20 pictures of her being wayyy too hot for the old fashion world of Mad Men, where the miniskirt is still causing heart attacks. We can't even imagine what Don would say if he ever saw her scandalous not-safe-for-Sterling-Cooper scene in Hot Tub Time Machine. But whatever he does, it would probably also involve this face.

Tonight in NYC: Amy Goodman Speaks on Election 2012, Superstorm Sandy, Climate Change
Democracy Now's Amy Goodman speaks at the first event at the Tribeca Barnes & Noble since its reopening post-Hurricane Sandy. She links Sandy and other extreme weather events to climate change, and discusses the corporate media's failure to make the connection.
We Are Not Powerless to Confront Climate Change
By Amy Goodman with Denis Moynihan
Millions of victims of Superstorm Sandy remain without power, but they are not powerless to do something about climate change.
Thousands Held in NYC Jail Will Not Be Evacuated Even As Surrounding Areas Face Storm Surge
New York City authorities promise the island home to 12,000 New York City prisoners sits on land high enough to withstand a Category 4 hurricane. But advocates told Democracy Now! they are still concerned that Rikers Island is not being evacuated, given the size of the Frankenstorm that is Hurricane Sandy. They also point to prison officials' failure to communicate clearly with inmates and their families last year during Hurricane Irene.
California's Food Fight: To Label or Not to Label GMOs
Of the 11 initiatives before the 2012 California electorate, one drawing perhaps the most attention is Proposition 37, on the labeling of food containing genetically modified organisms, or GMOs. Whether or not this ballot passes could have a significant impact on how our food system is organized, favoring small, local organic-food producers (if it passes), or allowing for the increased expansion of large, corporate agribusiness (if it fails).

[includes rush transcript]
Part Two: Shane Bauer: "Solitary in Iran Nearly Broke Me. Then I Went Inside America's Prisons"
In his first live television interview since his release from Iranian prison, journalist Shane Bauer shines the light on solitary confinement inside the California prison system. Bauer was one of three Americans detained in 2009 while hiking in Iraq's Kurdish region near the Iranian border. He and Josh Fattal were held by Iran for 26 months, and Sarah Shourd — now Bauer's wife — was held for 13 months, much of it in solitary confinement. [includes rush transcript]
Audio: Aid Boat Seized as It Approached Gaza Tells Israel: "We Are Not the Provocateurs"
We spoke with Mattias Gardell as he sailed through international waters on board the Swedish boat to Gaza, Estelle, before it was seized Saturday by the Israeli military as it attempted to break the Israeli blockade. The boat was called a "provocation" by Israel's ambassador to the United Nations. "What is a provocation is the fact that the current right-wing Israeli government has enforced the illegal seize of Gaza," Gardell told Democracy Now! [includes rush transcript]

Binders Full of Women, and Two Women Bound
By Amy Goodman with Denis Moynihan
You may have noticed that the Green Party presidential candidate, Dr. Jill Stein, was absent from the "town hall" presidential debate at Hofstra University the other night. That's because she was shackled to a chair in a nearby New York police facility, along with her running mate, Green Party vice president nominee Cheri Honkala. Their crime: attempting to get to the debate so Stein could participate in it.
WATCH: Three-Hour Democracy Now! Debate Special from Hofstra University
On the night of the second presidential debate at Hofstra University, Democracy Now! did a special broadcast from the campus, near the official debate hall. We aired the entire President Obama-Mitt Romney debate live and spoke with students and local residents about the issues they wanted to hear the candidates address. [includes rush transcript]

Workers Fight for Justice, From Wal-Mart to Chipotle
By Amy Goodman with Denis Moynihan
The great recession of 2008, this global economic meltdown, has wiped out the life savings of so many people and created a looming threat of chronic unemployment for millions. Despite unemployment levels that remain high, and the anxiety caused by people living paycheck to paycheck, many workers in the United States are taking matters into their own hands, demanding better working conditions and better pay.

Expand the Debate: This Is What Democracy Sounds Like
By Amy Goodman with Denis Moynihan
A few miles south of the campus arena in the Mile High City where President Barack Obama and Mitt Romney met in their first debate, Democracy Now! broke the sound barrier by expanding their gated debate to include two third-party presidential candidates. Dr. Jill Stein, of the Green Party, and Rocky Anderson, of the Justice Party, responded to the same questions put to the major-party candidates, in real time, from their own podiums a little ways down the road. The goal was to open the forum, to bring out voices that are ignored or marginalized by the mainstream media.

A gateway to Mayo Clinic for patients from around the region, nation and world
VIDEO ALERT: Additional audio and video resources are available on the Mayo Clinic News Blog: http://newsblog.mayoclinic.org/2009/06/16/mayo-clinic-gateway/
BLOOMINGTON, Minn., June 17 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- Mayo Clinic announced today that it has signed a letter of intent to be part of the Phase II expansion of Mall of America(R). Over the next 12 months, Mayo Clinic will define how the new facility will complement Mayo's existing presence in Minnesota and help bring its expertise to more people long-term.
The Mall of America location provides an ideal opportunity for a gateway to Mayo Clinic for people in Minnesota and across the country. Initial concepts call for care delivery models that will help Mayo reach new patients. Services provided at Mall of America will enhance services offered at Mayo Clinic, not replicate them.
"Mall of America provides an opportunity to offer patient services outside of traditional care models and enhance convenience and connectivity to Mayo Clinic," said Glenn Forbes, M.D., CEO, Mayo Clinic Rochester. "Mayo Clinic's patient population aligns strongly with the Mall of America's guests. Mall of America draws more than 40 million visitors from over 32 countries, and it also has strong nationwide appeal. Likewise, Mayo Clinic is a destination for patients throughout the region, nation and world, so this is a wonderful opportunity to better meet the needs of our patients and build on the synergies of these two Minnesota destinations."

What's not to like?
We spent two nights here passing through on our way back to London, the hotel is in a good location and offers excellent accommodation.
Rooms are spacious, stylish (we stayed in a deluxe room) and very well equipped. The hotel bar is small but adequate with a pianist in the early evenings. The restaurant offers a la carte or buffet dining, we chose the buffet for both lunch and dinner and thought it was excellent, the best food we had had on our trip. Choices range from Thai, Sushi or western, hot or cold with delicious deserts. Breakfast also really first class. The swimming pool area is in need of an overhaul, but otherwise absolutely no complaints, staff were professional and looked after our every need. We would definitely stay here again

Mehmet Oz hosts a popular TV show that reaches millions of people. He offers a constant stream of medical advice, and he is popular because he makes his topics sound dramatic, or exciting, or surprising, or all three.
Unfortunately, Dr. Oz sometimes demonstrates a poor understanding of science. At least I hope so, because he promotes so many outrageous treatments, with such enthusiasm, that the only other explanation I can think of is that he is simply a fraud. I don't think that's true, so let's give him the benefit of the doubt and assume that when he makes a mistake, he is simply ignorant of the truth. His latest startling revelation is that the metal fillings in your teeth are very, very bad for you. Or are they?
Last week, Dr. Oz hosted a show called "Toxic Teeth: Are Mercury Fillings Making you Sick? The show looked at silver amalgam fillings, which contain a small amount of mercury chemically bound within them. Mercury is indeed a toxin. Should you worry?
One problem with taking a skeptical look at a Dr. Oz show is that he packs each episode with scientific claims, coming at you thick and fast, and it would take hours to critique them all. Instead, I'll just pick a few, which illustrate Oz's lack of concern for accuracy, and his apparent ignorance of the underlying science about dental fillings.
Dr. Oz opens his show with a dramatic claim about mercury:
"This thermometer contains mercury," he says, holding up a very small thermometer. "If I were to drop it, we would have to evacuate this entire studio immediately!"
Now, this is complete nonsense. If you drop a mercury thermometer, you should carefully clean up the mercury, which beads up into nice little silver-colored balls. No one in the room is in danger, unless perhaps they try to inhale it.*
This opening salvo should set off anyone's skeptical alarm bells. Here's a guy who doesn't seem to mind exaggerating to make a point. Why trust anything he says in the rest of the show? I suspect, though, that after watching this episode, thousands of Oz's loyal viewers raced to the phone and made appointments to have the silver fillings in their teeth removed.
Dr. Oz continues his introduction by explaining that mercury is contained in silver tooth fillings. No one knew, he claims, that mercury vapor could be released from these fillings, but this news:
"sparked a firestorm 30 years ago [here the show cuts to a graphic of a fireball exploding] when major news reports brought to light the potential TOXICITY of mercury fillings. … Now there's mounting new evidence showing mercury is released when you eat, and even when you brush your teeth."
Quick, run to the dentist! Get this toxic mess out of my mouth!
But hang on a minute. Why aren't people dropping like flies from the fillings in their teeth? With little effort, I determined that, contrary to Dr. Oz's statements, nothing new has been discovered lately about silver tooth fillings. I found studies going back to the 1970s that shown that we've long known for decades that mercury is released from these fillings. But Oz ignores all these. He even announces, a few minutes into the show, that
"for the first time ever, I'm going to show you what happens when you brush your teeth with mercury fillings."
No, this is not the "first time ever." As a scientist, I find it worrisome that Oz seems quite comfortable claiming, incorrectly, that he's the first person ever to tell the world about this.
Perhaps the most outrageous – and unintentionally funny – segment of the show is the "demonstration," where Oz introduces an Oz-certified expert on mercury vapor, David Wentz, who has a gizmo that looks like it was built by a sideshow huckster. The device is a plexiglass box that looks like it was meant to handle biohazards, with black rubber gloves that let you manipulate its contents. In the box: a set of fake teeth containing… silver fillings! And a toothbrush!
As he walks over to the device, Oz says "I work with Dave Wentz and his Ph.D. dad." This goes by really fast, so you would be excused for not realizing that Dave Wentz himself doesn't have a Ph.D., and for not knowing whether he has any credentials at all. Dr. Oz conveniently omits the fact that Wentz and his father run a highly profitable nutritional supplements company, USANA http://www.usana.com/dotCom/about/index, which happens also to donate money to Oz's nonprofit corporation, HealthCorps. Hmm.
Dr. Oz then reaches into the box, and while the audience watches in hushed excitement, he brushes the teeth, right on top of those silver fillings! Right on cue, Wentz proclaims that the mercury vapor reading hits 61 in just a few seconds.
"Anything over zero is toxic," Wentz proclaims. "And we're at 61."
"Oh my goodness, 61!" Dr. Oz exclaims.
"That mercury is coming off the fillings, into your mouth, going across the blood-brain barrier, into your brain," says Wentz dramatically.
Wow. I've been brushing my teeth (which have several fillings) for years. How can I not be dead?
As Dr. Oz should know, "the dose makes the poison." Even water can kill you if you drink too much of it. Wentz is clearly wrong to say that "anything over zero is toxic."
How much mercury is safe, then?
According to the EPA, 0.1 micrograms of mercury per kilogram of body weight per day is safe. For an adult who weighs around 150 pounds, that's about 7 micrograms. A 6-ounce can of tuna has about 20 micrograms of mercury, about 3 times the safe amount per day. Scientists do have real concerns that mercury in tuna and other fatty fish might present a health hazard.
Dr. Oz's device seemed to show that 61 micrograms of mercury were released from brushing teeth, which would be about 9 times the exposure that is considered safe. Is there really a risk here?
Well, no. The EPA has found that "nearly all methylmercury exposures in the U.S. occur through eating fish and shellfish." (Admittedly, though, this is not mercury vapor.) The precise question that Oz claims to be explaining "for the first time" has been examined in multiple studies, and the evidence is that silver fillings are harmless. (See the FDA summary here.)
A thorough scientific review in 2004 concluded that:
"The current data are insufficient to support an association between mercury release from dental amalgam and the various complaints that have been attributed to this restoration material. … Individuals with dental amalgam-attributed complaints had neither elevated HgU nor increased prevalence of hypersensitivity to dental amalgam or mercury when compared with controls. The findings of these studies suggested that individuals with complaints self-attributed to dental amalgam should be screened for underlying dental, physical, and psychiatric conditions."
So no, there's no evidence that mercury from silver fillings causes any health problems. None.
But what about that device on Dr. Oz's show, which showed 61 micrograms being released in just a few seconds of brushing the teeth? My conclusion is that the device in Dr. Oz's studio was either wildly inaccurate or simply fraudulent. The setup was almost a parody of what real scientific instruments look like, and nothing about it gave me any confidence that it was reliable. I would suggest to Oz that before making a claim like this, he should ask rigorously trained scientists to make the measurements using properly calibrated equipment. A TV studio is no substitute for a real lab.

I love the look of this gun ... has a nice short barrel and is lightweight. It does kick a lot because of the short barrel ... it actually bruised me the first time I shot it. After some getting used to, it's a great gun.

Tasting Notes
pleasantly fruity, full bodied and persistent, its dry taste and the huge freshness are well balanced by a nice tannin
Wine Maker Notes
A true representation of Modena, Donelli Lambrusco Reggiano is packaged in the unique Scaglietti bottle, designed by renowned Ferrari designer Sergio Scaglietti. This sparkling half-dry red is vinified in stainless steel tanks, followed by maceration at a controlled temperature. The Charmat method is then implemented to slowly develop the froth. Boasting abundant floral aromas with hints of wild berries, this full-bodied wine has a slightly sweet, fruity taste that is nicely balanced by light tannins. The wine is the ideal accompaniment to tortellini, stuffed pasta, and boiled or roast meats. Serve chilled.
Food Pairing
ideal to accompany any typical dish from the Emilia's tradition, in particular tortellini and stuffed pasta. Perfect when matching boiled or roast meats

Start 'Em Barry Zito (@MIL, SD) Is that...it is! It's BARRY ZITO'S MUSIC! WHAT'S HE DOIN' HERE?!?!?! Zito's 14 scoreless innings may seem like a blast from the past, yet the left-hander posted a 3.03 ERA last September and was stellar in his final two playoff starts in the Giants' playoff run (13 1/3 innings, one earned run, nine strikeouts). One of the spurs for this revitalization has been Zito's ability to curtail his walk rate over this period, and a drop in homers hasn't hurt his cause either. Don't expect the prosperity to end this week, as Zito faces two of the weaker lineups in the Brewers and Padres. Ryan Dempster (TB, KC) Dempster's ill-advised foray in Texas last year (5.09 ERA, 1.44 WHIP in 12 starts) instilled a lack of confidence amongst owners that the 35-year-old could hold his own on the Junior Circuit. While he hasn't gone deep in his two outings, he's been respectable, surrendering four earned runs. Moreover, he's logged 15 punch-outs in just 10 innings. T...

In hearings today on Capitol Hill, Rumsfeld said the materials could only be described as "blatantly sadistic, cruel and inhuman."
"Needless to say, if I could not be effective, I would resign in a minute," he said. "I would not resign simply because people try to make a political issue out of it."
In straightforward testimony to the Senate and then the House that lasted about 6 hours, Rumsfeld occasionally flashed his trademark combativeness. He said he should be held accountable for the abuses at the Iraqi prison and offered several reforms, including compensation for victims who were abused.
In a sweeping apology that included mistreated Iraqis, President Bush, the Congress, the U.S. military, and the American people, Rumsfeld said, "These events occurred on my watch. As secretary of Defense, I am accountable for them and I take full responsibility."
He added: "I feel terrible about what happened to Iraqi detainees. They are human beings. They were in U.S. custody. Our country had an obligation to treat them right. We didn't and that was wrong."
In sworn statements to the House Armed Services Committee this afternoon, one lawmaker said events have dissolved the trust not only between the Arab world and U.S. forces, but also between the U.S. Congress and the Department of Defense.
Minutes into his testimony, Rumsfeld was heckled by several people in the audience, who shouted "Fire Rumsfeld!" and "War Criminal!" Security guards ushered the protesters out of the room.
Rumsfeld offered several reforms in hopes of containing fallout from the abuses that has led some Democratic leaders to call for his resignation and sharp criticism from Republicans. Investigations have shown that 25 prisoners in Iraq have died while in custody, said Les Brownlee, the acting Army secretary. Of those, a dozen died from natural causes, but two have been declared homicides and 10 remain under investigation.
Rumsfeld said he is forming an independent commission, composed of former officials, to determine whether more investigations need to be launched besides the several underway by the Pentagon. The commission will be expected to make its conclusions within 45 days.
Moreover, Rumsfeld said the procedures for detainees would be reviewed and said that victims also should receive some form of remediation. And the Defense secretary, under questioning from senators, said he would consider tearing down the Abu Ghraib prison where the abuses occurred under U.S. command. During the regime of Saddam Hussein, the prison was used for torturing and executing Iraqis.
Lt. Gen. Lance Smith testified before the House that about 75% of the recommendations made from a military report on the abuses have been implemented.
Rumsfeld, following Bush's lead as the furor has drawn more international outrage, elaborated before the senators on his apology for the abuses at the Iraqi prison.
"To those Iraqis who were mistreated by members of the U.S. armed forces, I offer my deepest apology. It was inconsistent with the values of our nation, it was inconsistent with the teachings of the military to the men and women of the armed forces, and it was certainly fundamentally un-American."
The Defense secretary today had two missions: to explain how the abuses occurred and to save his job. His sworn testimony, carried on live television in the U.S. and at least two Arab networks, comes a week after photographs of naked and abused Iraqi prisoners produced waves of anger around the world and drew condemnation of the U.S.-led occupation in Iraq.
Rumsfeld's appearance before the Senate Armed Services Committee this morning and its House counterpart this afternoon came under mounting pressure from lawmakers to report in greater detail about abuses of Iraqi prisoners in U.S. custody.
Throughout his testimony, Rumsfeld emphasized that the military was the first to announce that abuses had occurred at Abu Ghraib, that investigations had been launched, and that "swift, corrective action" was implemented.
The hearing did not break down along partisan lines, with some of the staunchest support for Rumsfeld coming from Democrats.

Finland's hippest music festival gets underway in Helsinki this week, with dozens of acts and tens of thousands of spectators arriving for the annual extravaganza that is Flow Festival.
The breadth of artists caters to very diverse music tastes, but it's the gourmet food on offer that makes Flow Festival a true pioneer on Finland's busy summer festival scene.
The line-up is always eclectic at Flow – this year's highlights run the gamut from a reinvented Neneh Cherry to resurgent Manic Street Preachers; from Action Bronson's big time beats to R&B superstar Janelle Monae; from Malian world music royalty Les Ambassadeurs to the divisive love-him-or-hate-him dubsteb of Skrillex; from Nordic synth-pop collaborators Röyksopp & Robyn to an abundance of homegrown Finnish bands, solo singers and DJ talent thrown in for good measure. More than 120 acts will perform over three days at the 2014 incarnation of Flow.
Now 11 years old, formative Flow had the reputation of being the unique playground of Helsinki's most achingly hip hipsters. In recent years, it's become more accessible to mainstream festival goers. You're as likely to find over-40′s with plenty of disposable income (the tickets are not especially cheap) as beanie-wearing 20-somethings with a job at a video game company, mingling together at the various performance spaces created around a disused power station in east Helsinki's Suvilahti neighbourhood.
Flow's musical credentials are not in doubt, but the cherry on the cake is the way organisers curate the festival food.
"We started this whole festival thing – on a lot smaller scale – back in 2004 and even then the food was important" says Tuomas Kallio, Flow's co-founder, current artistic director and chairman of the board.
Their first vendor was Kabuki, a popular local Japanese restaurant with "maybe the best sushi in Helsinki at the time" recalls Kallio. That was already a departure from other Finnish festivals, which served up staple stodge of 'pyttipannu' (a Nordic hash with potatoes, sausages, onions and fried egg) or Finnish 'makkara' grilling sausages. "Food is always a crucial factor of a total experience" Kallio explains.
Since that original Flow Festival, the Helsinki food scene has evolved beyond all recognition. Nowadays, organisers hand-pick from the hottest new restaurants, food trucks and pop-up kitchens to build the overall Flow food experience – weighing price range, different styles of food and flavours in the decision making process. "I think right now Helsinki's foodie scene is genuinely booming" says Kallio. "It was nothing like this 10 years ago when we started out with our little festival".
That "booming" scene is reflected in this year's culinary lineup, and festival goers have a lot of choices throughout Flow weekend. For local tastes, a trendy take on hotdogs from Helsinki's Kaartin Hodari & Hummeri jostles for attention with Tori – described by festival organisers as 'the Ramones of the Helsinki restaurant scene'. Moving to the Middle East, Sandro offer fresh Moroccan flavours while Israeli falafel shop Fafas brings its award-winning fried chickpea snacks to Flow again this year (their falafel with feta and roasted eggplant is particularly moreish, as this writer can attest!)
For Asian-inspired cuisine, New York Ninja blends NYC with Vietnam; Twisted Street Kitchen serves up – in this writer's opinion – Helsinki's best massaman curry with coconut; Tokyo Girl brings Malaysian, Korean and Japanese-influenced dishes to the Flow Festival crowd; while Tres Bones fuses Japanese and Korean with Latin herbs and spices. And yes, Kabuki is still faithfully serving Japanese food after all these years.
There's sweet treats from local startup Brklyn Cafe & Bakery and handmade chocolates from Chjoko, but a new trend this year is the wide range of organic, vegetarian, raw and vegan food on offer. "We've been trying to pick up on the emerging raw food and vegetarian scene and make more options available on that side" says Kallio. "Vegetarian food is definitely going to get bigger and bigger in the future for sure" he adds. This year, look out for Soi Soi, Raw Spot and Mat for the best local fast food in this niche vertical.
One of the architects of change in Helsinki's street food scene is chef Pasi Hassinen, co-founder of Street Gastro. They're back for the second time at Flow with big-filled sandwiches – gourmet ingredients with a street truck sensibility: pork, chicken, beef. They also have a second truck, Noodle Shack by Street Gastro, which will serve up fresh pan-Asian noodle bowls and home-made kimchi.
"Flow has been the only place to get decent festival food" says Hassinen, sitting in the courtyard of Helsinki's Tori Quarters, one of the oldest blocks in the Finnish capital where Street Gastro has set up for for the summer. "Flow offers fresh new faces, quality food and good prices" he adds.

What are the pros? prolific and good flavor
What are the cons? none
Out of the 5 varieties of tomatoes I purchased from this website, this was a favorite of family, friends, and neighbors. This tomato is juicy and mild. Can be eaten like a piece of fruit. This is a good variety for those who prefer a less acidic tomato. This tomato produced the most fruit of all the varieties I purchased.

What are the pros? Bold flavor, juicy, delicious
What are the cons? Some late blight
This tomato was absolutely delicious fresh, cooked, and anything in between. We made caprese salads with these tomatoe, slicing them nice and thick with some fresh mozzarella, aged balsamic, EVOO, and a little salt. We could plate up enough caprese for our guests, they loved these tomatoes! We also canned them to add some sweetness to a soup or sauce, not to mention the color!
Some notes on growing: I noticed that these tomatoes did not seem to like excessive heat and direct sunshine when temps were over 80-85, so consider a shade cloth for part of the day if you get higher temps in your area. Our community garden did get hit quite hard by late blight and everyone's tomatoes suffered an earlier than expected death. The tomatoes that were on the vine already seemed to hold up well enough to mature through the blight, but some didn't make it through and we missed out on quite a few delicious tomatoes.

What are the pros? appearance and flavor
What are the cons? I couldn't grow enough!
This tomato has earned a home in my field. I really like this one. The plant is shorter than most other indeterminates. The fruit matured earlier than any of my other 25 varieties and produced steadily throughout the season. The tomatoes are beautiful and quite large, with smooth skin. The meat is thick and holds up well for sandwiches or slicing. This is a nice tomato.
3 out of 3 people found the following review helpful:
What are the pros? Big and tasty
This is a really good tomato.We tried this tomato in 2013 for the first time, and it has earned a permanent spot in our garden. This tomato is one of the few tomatoes that did not get blight last year in southern Indiana, it produced until frost, they are big, and it is one of the best tasting tomatoes we have ever grown. We grow a lot of tomatoes, and this is now one of our favorites! My family and I can't wait until this summer to eat these again.
6 out of 7 people found the following review helpful:
What are the pros? Prolific, flavor, size, early
What are the cons? Quality
Super early, short plant, lots of nice tomatoes, but at times had some damage, post harvest cracking. Great taste. Will do again for sure.

As I've said before, you don't have to have studio type lights to get workable results. I've previously discussed China Balls (paper lanterns) for ambient light, but there are interesting options for dramatic lighting as well.
Years ago a friend who worked at MTV told me how for one show they lit the central area of a set by hanging something like 100 maglight flashlights on cables in an array overhead, and if some inevitably conked out, the sheer number of them meant you always had a lot of light. It sounds impractical (and who'd want to have to switch them all on and off all the time), but as the lights hung into the shots it gave an interesting design element in addition to providing practical illumination.
On a smaller scale, you can use cheap LED flashlights to dramatically light single subjects. I did this for the first video I did for The Kinsey Sicks, titled BP is Creepy (click to view on YouTube).
The song was designed to have a spooky sound, so the video needed a spooky look. My idea was to just have the performers disembodied heads floating in black (representing oil and being dark/spooky). I needed something I could shoot fast, too, as we piggybacked this on the tail end of another music video shoot, and basically had to shoot it within an hour. I decided to buy four LED flashlights and use them to light the faces from below, horror-movie fashion.
Original photography was of each performer in this framing.
Separately photographed heads could be mixed and matched and duplicated and scaled.
As you can see here, the results are pretty dramatic considering how little light we were actually using.
Separately photographed heads could be mixed and matched and duplicated and scaled.
Simple scaling and rotating tricks were used to create choreography like this Busby Berkeley shot.
Naturally, a big part of making this work is to get the exposure right. I you get the exposure wrong, or your camera's no-good in low light, this might not work. BUT, you can increase the number of flashlights for more light. You can even tape them onto C-stands or other stands to keep them in place.
Obviously this technique was its limitations, but there's a lot you can do with it.

Facebook Home updated with lock screen music controls and more
Facebook for Android has just been updated, with some big Facebook Home changes. Facebook Home for Android now includes music controls on the lock screen during playback, which is nice.
But, it doesn't end there: there's also animated stickers now available in messages. Not a huge update, but the music controls in the lock screen is definitely a nice addition. I've tried out Facebook Home on my Galaxy S4, and I don't know what to think. If your life centers around Facebook, which many do, then it might be nice to check this out.
Evernote comes to Windows Phone 8, includes new, exciting features
Today, Evernote updated their app for Windows Phone 8, bringing it more in line with its Android and iOS versions. The update ushers in several new features, including a new multi-shot camera that allows users to take multiple snapshots per note without exiting camera mode.
To complement this feature, Evernote has also included a new slideshow that can be accessed by tapping on a photo while looking at the note. This will pop up the slideshow, which you can then swipe to view the other images. Speech-to-text is now also featured in the phone. Simply tap on the speech bubble from within a note and begin talking. The app will then transcribe your words into notes and add an automatically generated title so that users no longer end up with a bunch of untitled notes.
Gmail for iOS updated, improved Drive and Google+ integration
Google has pushed out an update on Gmail for iOS, which now includes a few new improvements. First off, Gmail for iOS has reached version 2.4, with the latest version including improved integration for Drive and Google+.
This means you can open links to the respective apps by tapping on them, which is nice. Google has boosted up the attachment system, which now sees larger image thumbnails that can be opened in full-screen mode. If you want to grab the latest Gmail for iOS app, head on over to the iTunes Store, or manually update from your iOS-based device.
Chromecast for iOS app released, allows control from your iPhone
Google's Chromecast took the world by storm when it was released about a month ago. The little $35 HDMI streaming dongle sold out faster than any other tech item released this year. Unfortunately, consumers with an iOS device were left in the dark on how to control the dongle from their phone.
Today, Google released the official Chromecast app for iOS and it currently works with the iPhone, iPad, iPad mini, and iPod touch. The app allows you to configure basic settings that are required to get the dongle up and running and will display all of the Chromecasts connected to your Wi-Fi network and their statuses. The app is available for free on iTunes, but requires users to be running iOS 5.1 or higher.
Samsung begins teasing BlackBerry Messenger on its Galaxy devices
We've known that BlackBerry Messenger is making its way to Android for quite some time now, and while we had hoped for an OS-wide launch sometime in July, it appears that the first Android devices to get BBM will be of Samsung origin. Earlier today, website CrackBerry spotted a teaser ad that was posted on both YouTube and Samsung's Ghana Facebook page.
Unfortunately, the YouTube video has since been removed, but the Facebook posting is still up at the time of this writing. It makes sense that the company's Ghana page would be the first to post as BlackBerry Messenger is a major form of communication in many African countries.
So what does this mean? I think we may see the app officially announced by Samsung or BlackBerry at the IDC trade show in Berlin, Germany, next week, and with a working port for Android-based Samsung devices now in existence, it is only a matter of time before BlackBerry Messenger is in the Google Play Store for all Android devices. That is, unless BlackBerry did something stupid like sign an exclusivity deal with Samsung, but then again this is BlackBerry were talking about and weirder things have happened in the past.
Facebook's Instagram now offers in-app image straightening feature
As an ex-professional photographer, one of the most annoying things about 90 percent of the photos posted online is the fact that they are never straight. No one seems to care about holding their smartphone in a nice in level orientation. Today, it appears that the developers over at Instagram felt the same way and decided to fix this crooked issue.
The latest version of Instagram for iOS features built-in image straightening and the best thing about it is that it can be setup to happen automatically. The developers figured out that they can collect data from the phone's accelerometer and gyrometer sensors to figure out at what orientation and the angle the smartphone was being held at at the time the image was captured and then use that data to automatically straighten the image.

The app includes all of Boomerangs popular features wrapped up in a easy-to-use, customizable, swipe-based user interface that allows users to swipe right to archive email or swipe left to reveal more actions that include delete, boomerang, label, mark as read, and staring. I tried out the app for most of the day and I am quite excited to continue using Boomerang for Android.

Instagram for Windows Phone 8 could soon arrive, get your food ready
I don't know what has taken Instagram, or Facebook for that matter, to get off its asses and unleash Instagram for Windows Phone 8, but it looks like those days could soon be over.
A WMPoweruser has pointed out some remarks that Nokia's executive vice president, Chris Weber, who said that Instagram is finally coming to Microsoft's mobile OS, but he didn't provide any further details or a possible release window. Considering Instagram is one of the major apps that Windows Phone 8 is missing, you would think it would've been here by now.
Pandora prepares for iTunes Radio launch by removing 40-hour limit
Apple is poised to press the all-systems-go button for iTunes Radio, but Pandora is striking its hammer now, with company CFO Mike Herring announcing during Pandora's earnings call yesterday that the company will remove its 40-hour listening limit on mobile devices.
Last we heard they had started a 40-hour listening limit per month because of an increase in royalty rates, but now mobile users can enjoy the same unlimited music streaming goodness that desktop users can enjoy, without the $36 per year charge. Just what accounting magic did Pandora perform to provide mobile listeners with unlimited music, for free? Herring explains:
Our investment in advertising infrastructure and implementing smart levers such as reducing song skipping and limiting mobile listening have helped us drive monetization and manage content costs, as reflected by the increase in RPM and a decrease in content costs as a percentage of revenue
As our results have shown, the continued strong growth in our advertising revenue allowed us to cover the increased royalty costs with dollars left over to invest back into the business. With these tools in hand, and insight into how they work, we are resetting our levers in September. Notably, Pandora plans to eliminate the blanket 40-hour-per-month limit on free mobile listening effective September 1st.
Mozilla adds "awesomescreen" to Firefox for Android nightly builds
Many years ago, Mozilla revolutionized the browser world with its addition of the "awesomebar" to its Firefox web browser. This awesomebar allowed users to do so much more from the URL bar than just entering URLs. Today, the company announced that it has completely revamped the "awesomescreen" feature in its Firefox for Android app.
In a blog post, user interface engineer Lucas Rocha said that Mozilla has accepted the new awesomescreen design into its beta-stage "nightly" builds, which is where the new feature will be tested, debugged, and further refined before being released into the mainstream app.
The awesomescreen basically meshes together two key features of Firefox: the browser start screen and the screen that is shown when users tap the address bar. Much like Chrome, this new awesomescreen will display thumbnails of webpages from a user's browsing history, bookmarks, and a reading list. Each of these different segments can be featured by swiping from side to side among the different topics.
