Host Cloris Kylie welcomes author and publishing expert, Ken Dunn. Ken will share the nuts and bolts of how to get your book written and published in today's busy and confusing publishing industry.
About Ken Dunn:
As CEO/Founder of Next Century Publishing, Ken Dunn is currently leading the charge in changing the way people write, read and experience books. After spending 14 years in investigative and tactical policing, Dunn was able to hone deep organization and leadership skills, but also spark an entrepreneurial fire that laid deep inside.
Throughout his policing career, Dunn was always starting businesses. In 2001, Dunn started KPLJ Investments Mortgage Origination and from there the business grew rapidly due to its groundbreaking direct selling techniques which ultimately forced Dunn to leave law enforcement. Dunn, wanting to do more and play his hand at starting other businesses, sold KPLJ in 2005.
In the past decade, Dunn has traveled to 40 different countries building sales, organizations and teaching leadership. Dunn's achievements in direct selling ultimately led him to join the publishing industry where he has also successfully authored three books.
In 2010, Dunn launched Next Century Publishing and merged with Pilot Communications where he serves as the company's CEO and founder.

How to Write a Book in 2 hours Author shares publishing secrets
in Entrepreneur
Host of Successipes,Lori Wilk welcomes the CEO of Next Century Publishing, the founder of ReadersLegacy.com ,author of multiple best-selling books, Kenn Dunn to talk about latest book: "Learn How to Write a Book in Two Hours."
At first I wanted to believe the title of the book was about writing a book in two hours and I was so ready . I thought, " If Ken can teach me to write a book in two hours, I'm going to take 8 hours and write 4 books. Then, you two can help me publicisze them. This would be the push in the right direction for completion and publishing that most authors are seeking."
Then, reality hit, the best anyone can do is learn how to write a book in 2 hours, not actually write it.- It's a process and there are steps in the process to be followed so you write a quality book that gets into the hands of the right audience to be a success. I can't wait for the interview.
Michelle Colon Johnson will be honored by Ken at his upcoming Author event in Las Vegas June 4-7 at the JW Marriott. Ken is also the founder and CEO of Reader's Legacy launching in June.
Stay tuned and tune-in for insights, information and inspiration.

Book Marketing Strategy: The Real Costs of Self-Publishing a Book
in Entrepreneur
The world of self-publishing looks fairly simple, right? I mean, you write a manuscript using Microsoft Word, design a cover using Adobe Photoshop, open a free (Amazon) Createspace or (Ingram) Lightning Source account, upload your files, and sit back and watch your book sales profits skyrocket - almost like magic - overnight. Sound easy, huh? So then, why do most self-published authors only sell, on average, 200 books before their title hits the wall? Even as a self-published author of only one title, you must still conduct business. And, as a business owner (entrepreneur), you must comprehensively understand the rules of engagement - like how much you need to spend and when you might expect to gain a return on your investment. Most self-published authors are 99% clueless when it comes to realistic expectations and how much money they will realistically spend throughout their self-publishing process. So then, what are the REAL costs of self-publishing a book? That is our focus on this edition of, "The Strategist Radio LIVE."

Arian Foster ran for 140 yards on 32 carries, and a touchdown to lead the Texans over the Bengals, 19-13, Saturday in an AFC wild-card gam at Reliant Stadium, earning a rematch with the Patriots next Sunday at 4:30 p.m. in the AFC divisonal round at Gillette Stadium. The Patriots crushed the Texans, 42-14, on Monday night football on Dec. 10 at Gillette Stadium.
In a rematch of last year's AFC wild-card matchup, the Texans and J.J. Watt were able to pressure Andy Dalton in the first half, holding the Bengals to -6 passing yards. The Bengals still managed a 7-6 lead when Leon Hall returned a Matt Schaub interception 21 yards in the second quarter. The Texans dominated the first half in time of possession but managed just three field goals, taking a 9-7 halftime lead.
The Texans were able to finally finish a scoring drive with a touchdown in the third quarter when Arian Foster ran it in from two yards out to make it 16-7. The Bengals and Dalton finally targeted A.J. Green on the next drive as Cincinnati worked its way into the red zone. But Dalton misfired to Green and they had to settle for a field goal that made it 16-10.
The Bengals got ball back but Dalton threw an interception to former Bengal Johnathan Joseph set up Houston's fourth field goal of the day, giving the Texans a 19-10 lead. The Bengals responded with a 47-yard Josh Brown field goal, making it 19-13 with nine minutes left.
Twice the Texans had fourth-and-1 and Gary Kubiak decided to punt, even with Foster available. They gave the Bengals the ball twice, including with 6:15 left in the game and a chance to drive 80 yards for the go-ahead score. The Bengals drove down to the Texans 35 but the drive stalled as Dalton missed a wide open Green in the end zone on third down and were stopped on fourth down. The Bengals finished 0-for-9 on third down.
The Bengals became the first team in NFL history to go 0-6 all-time in road playoff games. Bengals coach Marvin Lewis also fell to 0-4 in the playoffs. Lewis, who is now the second-longest tenured NFL coach behind Bill Belichick, has gone longer without a playoff win (10 seasons) than any coach in NFL history.

8 Days in Hawai'i
By Intentionally Katie on January 16, 2014
BlogHer Network
The fact that I saved up enough money to take my whole family to Hawaii is still a little surreal to me. We had a set budget with very specific preferences for staying on the beach, someplace kid friendly, daily maid service, big enough to sleep all five of us, a full kitchen, and not too far from local attractions. Our travel agent nailed it! . . .

Miami Beach's North Shore Park Bandshell & Ocean Terrace will dress in the typical, characteristic Latin flavor of the North Beach area to welcome the Miami Beach Food Truck and Music Fest on Wednesday nights this fall. The events take place on September 19, October 17 and November 14, from 5:00 p.m. To 10:00 p.m., at the North Beach Park Bandshell on Collins Avenue and 73 Street. The food and music fest will feature the popular mobile food trucks, free entertainment and participation by area restaurants.
The salsa sounds of the Marlow Rosado y La Riqueña's nine-piece band will kick off the festival on September 19 from 6 to 9 pm.
With over twenty years' experience in the music industry, pianist-composer-producer Marlow Rosado has developed a powerful portfolio working with many of the top artists in the Latin recording world. Singing with world-renowned producer Desmond Child has led him to work with major artists such as Alejandra Guzman and Ricky Martin (on Más). With eleven Grammy nominations to his credit, Rosado's influence in the Tropical genre can be felt on records ranging from Elvis Crespo to Gran Combo.
His 2009 debut album, Salsalsa, featuring Andy Montañez, lived at the #1 spot on Puerto Rico's hottest Salsa station, Zeta 93, for over eight weeks. His second and latest CD, Retro, (2012) takes some of the strongest songs from the 1970's, maintaining the essentials of the originals, but metamorphosing them in Marlow's 21st-century conception until they become entirely his own. The album features guest appearances by Tito Puente, Jr., Ismael Miranda, Bobby Cruz, Papo Lucca, Kevin Ceballo, Marlon Fernandez, Luigi Texidor, Quique Dominich, Salvador Cuevas, and Tony Vega. It has received rave reviews and has made the Top Ten list nationally in its category.
"It is a great neighborhood and we're looking forward to having people come and enjoy good food, good music, and the beautiful beach and also hoping to entice neighboring residents to come and discover the charm of North Beach," said Miami Beach Acting Assistant City Manager Max Sklar.
The popular food truck lineup includes the following: Ms. Cheezious, Sakaya Kitchen, Gastropod, Health Nut on Wheels, Dolci Pecati, Sugar Yummy Mama, Garcia Brothers Seafood, La Camaronera, Moty's Grill, Latin Burger, Mangia Mia and Bocaditos. They will be offering varied menus from burgers and seafood to healthy bites and ethnic dishes.

The Big Red One
1980 Directed by Samuel Fuller
Only chance could have thrown them together. Now, nothing can pull them apart.
A veteran sergeant of the World War I leads a squad in World War II, always in the company of the survivor Pvt. Griff, the writer Pvt. Zab, the Sicilian Pvt. Vinci and Pvt. Johnson in Vichy French Africa, Sicily, D-Day at Omaha Beach, Belgium and France, ending in a concentration camp in Czechoslovakia where they face the true horror of war.

Suddenly realised I haven't written anything about Sam Fuller on here yet, and this probably isn't the best one to start with. It makes a slight move from the giant collective pieces on war from early Fuller and juggles both very personal stories of war with larger perspectives showing the entire squadron. He's certainly concerned with showing each individual victory and act of heroism though they always exist in the moment and that feeling is always short-lived or surrounded with such horrifying bluntness as Marvin calling each number on D-Day and the corresponding man having to go to his death. It's hardly as relentless as, say, Steel Helmet or China Gate which both exist within a space…
I know there's someone out there that watches this and sees glory and excitement, but I can't imagine what they must be like. Almost every soldier I've ever spoken to has mentioned how unrealistic war movies are, but that hardly means the movies don't adequately convey some sense of horror and pain. They present effective characters and we empathize with them, and even if what is shown is both less terrifying than the real thing and more condensed, deeply edited, completely limited as compared to the real thing, even if that is the case, it is none-the-less a depiction of nothing I can fathom wanting to be a part of.
This film (and note that I watched the 2.75 hour…
Sometimes there are films that can genuinely be described as a huge influence on a host of others in their genre. Star Wars influenced almost every science fiction movie after 1977 and Samuel Fuller's The Big Red One's influence can be seen in everything from Spielberg's Saving Private Ryan to the Band Of Brothers tv series.
Starring Lee Marvin and a post Star Wars Mark Hamill, this follows a group of soldiers from the legendary 1st Infantry Division during WWII. It shows the platoon at various stages of the war and covers their exploits in North Africa, Sicily, the D-Day landings, Belgium and finally Czechoslovakia. We see the deaths of comrades, the horrors of war, the bond that grows between…
Matthew Ekstrom's #10 Film Selection for Edgar
Loosely based on a series of horrific anecdotes personally lived by director Samuel Fuller, The Big Red One is the director's personal feature that finally made him earn his first Palme d'Or nomination. He was asked to recall his experiences while serving as an infantry soldier in the European Theatre of the Second World War. Under these terms, it is no ordinay war feature. The narrative is intentionally disjointed into an episodic structure, like fractured memoirs of an upset soul trying to put the pieces together about violent accounts in the middle of inhuman circumstances.
Several users have agreed, and I join them: the film is misunderstood. The film can be fairly credited…
It's just one of your balls, Smitty. You can live without it. That's why they gave you two.
-The Sergeant
It's either an Epic War Drama disguised as a World War II Adventure B-Movie, or a World War II Adventure B-Movie disguised as an Epic War Drama. I'm not sure which. It certainly is an Epic however, but a Samuel Fuller Epic. No forced messages or sentimentality, just a story about war.
It's not a romanticized version of the war either despite it's "War Adventure Tone". The Sergeant and the four lucky Privates that seem to be the only survivors from skirmish to skirmish come to a point where they don't seem to give a shit about anyone else in…
So The Empire Strikes Back wasn't the only great film to co-star Mark Hamill in 1980. Talk about confronting your dark side. Fuller is adept at details and ideas without being heavy handed or abstractly poetic. Therefore, I found this superior to both Saving Private Ryan and The Thin Red Line. Lee Marvin is a master at the close-up reaction shot and totally believable as the commander who's fought to the bitter end of two world wars. David Ayer's recent Fury (which I liked) owes a great debt to this one. I watched the original cut, but greatly look forward to sitting down for the reconstructed version some day.
Recent reviewsMore
I'm not getting all the praise for this one here, as it really was nothing special.
Marvin is a solid lead and it was great seeing Hammill I. something other then Star Wars.
That said, it was just so hokey. The theme music almost lead me to think it may have been more a farce. The fact that EVERYONE but the five leads dies and they keep talking about how they never die came off as unrealistic and just outright stupid.
The humor was pure cheese too. A man asking the five if he will die soon, instantly.hits a mine, only to somehow have one ball blown off? I mean really?
The war sequences have been done so much better in other films as well.
Caradine was a horrible choice for a voice over as well.
The Reconstruction.
Released July 18, 1980.
Roger Ebert called this movie an "epic B-Movie," distinguishing it by stating that "A-Movies are about war, but B-Movies are about the soldiers."
He's right, at least in terms of "The Big Red One" being about the soldiers. There have been great war movies made about a colorful crew of soldiers backdropped by actual events of a given war. I'm thinking of "Saving Private Ryan," "The Pacific," "Band of Brothers," or even "Inglorious Basterds." Its a sure-fire way of getting the audience to identify- cast your movie with sympathetic faces, throw them into the meat grinder, and presto! Great War Movie!
The problem with "The Big Red One" is that the crew we become acquainted with…
It is so surprising to see a war movie laced with so much humor.The D Day set piece is one of the most memorable I have seen in my life.Lee Marvin leads a marvelous bunch of actors. Another aspect i loved was that Samuel Fuller shoots the whole movie episodically. I saw the 156 minute version and it was totally worth it.One of the greatest war movies in cinema.period.
This review reportedly contains spoilers. I can handle the truth.
I saw the theatrical version about 5 years ago and found it mostly forgettable. But I just now watched the Reconstruction, and it is a great movie through and through. I wish Sam Fuller could have lived to see it.
I remembered a handful of things from my viewing of the theatrical cut, such as Mark Hamill shooting repeatedly at a German corpse, Robert Carradine fantasizing about frozen butts, Bobby Di Cicco singing "O Sol Mio" with his gun in some dude's mouth, the accidental shooting of the French allies (and the subsequent embrace of them), the chaos and hopelessness of the D-Day sequence, and the opening scene set during World War I.
But to see the entire finished version,…
Leave it to Sam Fuller to present war in all its glory, absurdity and brutality. After all, he's one of the few filmmakers who's been there. The film follows the path of an infantry division, led by a sergeant (Lee Marvin) who participated in the First World War. The squad battles its way through African to Italy and then to Omaha beach, whose depiction is nearly as visceral as that of D-Day in Saving Private Ryan. This is a Fuller film, so there's also humor, crude humor and all sorts of messy, chaotic occurrences. But that's part of what makes the film so great, one of his very best.
Suddenly realised I haven't written anything about Sam Fuller on here yet, and this probably isn't the best one to start with. It makes a slight move from the giant collective pieces on war from early Fuller and juggles both very personal stories of war with larger perspectives showing the entire squadron.

Zab: [narrating] By now we'd come to look at all replacements as dead men who temporarily had the use of the arms and legs. The came and went so fast and so regularly that sometimes we didn't even learn their names. Truth is, after a while, we sort of avoided gettin' to know them.
A character study of a small outfit during WW2, based and directed by Samuel Fuller. The Big Red One is Samuel Fuller's bio pic and deals with his experiences during WW2.
Filmed on a relative low budget, it focuses itself much more on the story of the 5 leads, Lee Marvin as the veteran sergeant, Mark Hamill as the sharpshooter of the group, Robert Carradine as…
Some of the strangest scenes ever seen in a war movie: Lee Marvin with flowers in his helmet; Lee Marvin delivering a baby in a tank; Lee Marvin spanking a Hitler Youth kid. I could go on. Watch this film!

Andros Townsend and Lewis Holtby combined to score one of the goals of the season for Spurs in the Europa league tonight, to make it 3-1 against Anzhi.
The England winger flicked a delightful ball over the top for Holtby to run on to, whose control and volleyed finish in one swift movement was simply sublime.
Gif above, and video below the fold.

TV Ratings: Jets-Pats game carries CBS past NBC's Golden Globes on Sunday
Globes ratings are steady from last year
Follow HitFix: Follow @hitfix
NBC's coverage of the 68th Annual Golden Globe Awards was on par with last year's telecast, but with CBS airing the end of the Jets' upset victory over the Patriots, the Sunday ratings race wasn't particularly close.
Of course, with CBS' football coverage only falling into primetime in certain areas, and with the Golden Globes airing live in the afternoon for some of the country, it's likely these figures will shift some when final data is available.
Among adults 18-49, CBS averaged a 5.8 rating for the night, topping NBC's 3.8 rating in the coveted demographic. FOX's 2.5 rating and the 2.1 rating for ABC followed.
Overall, CBS averaged an estimated 20.38 million viewers to go with an 11.8 rating/18 share. NBC's 7.6/12 and 12.77 million viewers were good for second, far ahead of ABC's 4.8/7 with 7.78 million viewers and FOX's 5.07 million viewers and 3.0/5.
7 p.m. - The conclusion of the Jets-Pats game gave CBS a whopping 40.63 million viewers and a 13.6 rating among adults 18-49 in the 7 p.m. hour. NBC's Golden Globe red carpet coverage finished a distant second with 8.12 million viewers and a 2.0 demo rating. ABC's repeat of "America's Funniest Home Videos" averaged 5.87 million viewers, better than the 3.11 million for FOX's "Simpsons" repeat and a new "American Dad."
8 p.m. - CBS stayed in first overall in the 10 p.m. hour with 17.25 million viewers for "60 Minutes." The start of NBC's Golden Globe telecast was second overall with 14.22 million viewers and won the hour in the key demo with a 4.3 rating. ABC's "Extreme Makeover: Home Edition" was third with 7.94 million viewers. FOX's "The Simpsons" and "Bob's Burgers" averaged 5.79 million viewers for fourth.
9 p.m. - The Golden Globes pushed NBC into first in the 9 p.m. hour with 14.9 million viewers and a 4.6 demo rating. CBS' "Undercover Boss" was second with 13.29 million viewers, beating the 10.08 million viewers for ABC's "Desperate Housewives." FOX's "Family Guy" and "The Cleveland Show" finished fourth with 6.31 million viewers, coming in third in the key demo, barely beating ABC.
10 p.m. - The last hour of the Golden Globes telecast gave NBC 13.76 million viewers and a 4.4 demo rating. CBS was second with the 10.35 million viewers for a new "CSI: Miami." ABC's "Brothers & Sisters" struggled to 7.23 million viewers in third.
All ratings information comes from preliminary Fast National Nielsen data, which includes live and same-day DVR viewing. All numbers are subject to change, particularly in the case of live events.

Toki Wright at Minnehaha Park tonight
Toki Wright released an album over a year ago called
A Different Mirror, and his touring support for the record is still in high-gear. Tonight marks a big bash for him and urban music at an Institute of Production and Recording (IPR)-sanctioned concert at Minnehaha Park where he will play alongside Midwest Konnect, School of Rock, and R.A.
Wright is of course a mainstay in the Twin Cities activist and hip-hop scene, and his presence on Rhymesayers has garnered him critical acclaim. His partners for the night are just as accomplished in their own rights- among them, F.A. is a member of Student Run Records (which spun out of a class at IPR) and was chosen as the 2008 Liberian Artist of the Year. The Paul Green School of Rock is also in attendance, nationally known for training kids in the fundamentals of music- think of the Jack Black movie.
Nothing better than celebrating a genre of music which has defined this city especially in the past decade. It's tonight from 6-9PM and free at Minnehaha's bandstand. And since food in any capacity on warm summer nights in the park is always a good thing, IPR is providing complimentary water, granola bars, and Chipotle guac and chips.

Good night's stay!Posted Jun 2, 2015
I just have one negative comment: I got up to go down to get a cup of coffee and I was very surprised that the hotel did not provide a free breakfast for all of the guests. I went somewhere else for breakfast.

The water in the tub wouldn't drain. The drainage was so slow that it made frozen molasses seem fast. Makes me wonder if the person who cleans the room cleaned the tub or just does not care... If this person does not care then what does it say about the cleanliness of the rest of the room(s).

Basic, Clean AccomodationsPosted Dec 9, 2014
The Courtyard was just fine. There isn't any room service, just a basic snack bar (and Starbucks). While the room was clean and the staff was efficient and friendly, the heating didn't work properly (it wouldn't shut off no matter what the thermostat was on); the mini-fridge was weirdly hot (!), and the shower nozzle kept falling down. The price was a little high for the unfixed issues and the basic "no-menities," but the overall impression was positive.

Travel Troubles
A 14-year-old girl is being interviewed by police in Holland over an apparent threat she sent to American Airlines via Twitter.
A spokeswoman for Rotterdam police said the girl, who has not been named but who called herself Sarah on the social networking site, had addressed a tweet to the US-based airline at the weekend implying she was a militant planning an attack.
"hello my name's Ibrahim and I'm from Afghanistan. I'm part of Al Qaida and on June 1st I'm gonna do something really big bye," she wrote on Sunday (local time) from the account Queen-Demetriax, which Twitter now shows as suspended.
Police spokeswoman Tinet De Jong said the girl was being questioned in the company of a relative at a police station in Rotterdam after Twitter had disclosed to them the internet address from which she had written the message.
"We are asking her right now why she sent out these messages," she said, adding that police had asked the airline if it wanted to press charges.
"Much will depend on whether or not she's done anything like this before," De Jong said, saying it would be for prosecutors to decide what if any charges she should face.
American Airlines replied to the girl in a tweet that has since been deleted, saying her details would be passed to the Federal Bureau of Investigation.
"omfg I was kidding... I'm so sorry I'm scared now," the girl replied.
A British man who joked four years ago that he would blow an airport "sky high" after it closed because of snow had his conviction for sending a "menacing" message overturned on appeal after a two-year legal battle.

It might seem strange for us to be putting out an issue of Bike that is largely devoted to high-alpine riding at a time when much of the Northern Hemisphere is still buried under snow. Though one could argue that it's masochistic to pine for something that seems so far away, in practice it's one of the best ways to ward off the mid-winter doldrums.

Dreamcast Worlds by Zoya Street, Vaporware by Richard Dansky, Kill Screen Issue #1: No Fun by Kill Screen Magazine, The Guide to Classic Graphic Adventures edited by Kurt Kalata, Kill Screen Issue #7: The Great Outdoors by Kill Screen Magazine and Blue Wizard is About to Die by Seth Barkan. Pay more than $10 and add Replay: The History of Video Games by Tristan Donovan, Rise of the Video Game Zinesters by Anna Anthropy and A Slow Year by Ian Bogost. That last one is an ebook and a game in one.
StoryBundle, much like Humble Bundle, allows customers to split their payments among the authors, the site itself and charities Mighty Writers or Girls Write Now.
Continuing its popular "pay what you want" ebook bundles, StoryBundle is proud to present the Video Game Bundle 2.0. The specially curated set of nine full-length game culture & history books/magazines follows up an acclaimed, best-selling bundle from early this year, and once again features over $70 of books for a fraction of that price.
The Video Game Bundle 2.0, curated by game industry veteran Simon Carless, includes the gigantic 770-page Guide To Classic Graphic Adventures, edited by Kurt Kalata and spanning the best of LucasArts, Sierra, and far beyond – plus Zoya Street's critically acclaimed Dreamcast Worlds, about the classic Sega console and three stand-out titles, including Shenmue.
Returning from the first bundle, popular game literary magazine Kill Screen has contributed two more entire issues, including the most recent The Great Outdoors. And straying into the fiction category, Splinter Cell writing veteran Richard Dansky has contributed full-length horror novel Vaporware, the story of "what happens when a video game doesn't want to get canceled." Plus, appearing in digital form for the first time as part of a 10-year anniversary edition, Seth Barkan's Blue Wizard Is About To Die! is a seminal out-of-print video game poetry tome.
The final three books – available at the higher payment tier – are perhaps the most impressive of all. Firstly, StoryBundle has secured acclaimed game history book Replay (from author Tristan Donovan, including 140 exclusive interviews, from David Crane to Will Wright and far beyond!) in its first-ever bundle.
Secondly, also included in this second Video Game StoryBundle is Anna Anthropy's much-praised book Rise of the Videogame Zinesters, subtitled "How Freaks, Normals, Amateurs, Artists, Dreamers, Drop-outs, Queers, Housewives, and People Like You Are Taking Back an Art Form". It's a book that's intended as a call to arms for anyone who's ever dreamed of making their own games – and for those who want to see change in the existing video game industry.
Finally, author and academic Ian Bogost is releasing a downloadable version of his IGF Nuovo Award-nominated game A Slow Year, alongside its accompanying book of essays – for the first time ever via this StoryBundle. The "ambient" game about "the experience of observing things" was originally made for the Atari 2600, and is available in PC and Mac downloadable versions when buying this bundle. The book discusses "the commonalities between videogames and poetry", as well as providing 1,024 machined haiku – poetry generated by computer.
The initial titles in the Video Game StoryBundle (minimum $3 to purchase) are:
'Dreamcast Worlds' by Zoya Street
'Vaporware' by Richard Dansky
'Kill Screen Issue #1: No Fun' by Kill Screen Magazine
'The Guide to Classic Graphic Adventures' edited by Kurt Kalata
'Kill Screen Issue #7: The Great Outdoors' by Kill Screen Magazine
'Blue Wizard is About to Die' by Seth Barkan
If you pay more than the bonus price of just $10, you get all six of the regular tomes, plus three unmissable books (& game!):
'Replay: The History of Video Games' by Tristan Donovan

I used to be a HUGE fan of Drake Bell, even went to one of his concerts and got a dollar bill signed by him. lol But yeah, this just seems like bitterness over a failed music career, even if JBeibs is pretty obnoxious.

What if he makes fun of Bieber because he knows people on the internet will like him more, and he has no real reason? Just like everybody else. Sorry but I thought this stupid Bieber trend would leave my beloved FJ after 4-5 years. I had hoped at least
#107 to #77 - secretdestroyers ONLINE (04/24/2013) [-]
Uncalled for? People should be harassing Bieber directly instead of just complaining about him over the internet!
#156 - bobbysnobby (04/24/2013) [-]GOD YES YOU OWNED HIM. Im so sick of people not giving Beiber a hard time for being popular and rich even if he doesnt have musical talent. It bothers me to no end the amount of love there is for him on the internet. It reminds me a lot of Comedians during the Bush DJ 4DM1Nistration he would do something dumb then no comedian ever commented on it and I was always baffled. I mean saying stuff like Beiber sucks, Gaga is crazy, and Bush is an idiot might be the most controversial thing one could ever say in the internet and it would take real balls to do it so i commend this Drake Bell person for breaking the mold and giving all us the courage to stand up for what we believe in even if its an unpopular position.

This is great when you need have some tempeh and can't be bothered making anything too difficult. My toddler loves anything covered in tomato sauce and tempeh contains all the amino acids. Making the sauce is quite quick - I turned the heat up and managed to save some time. And waiting for the tempeh to bake gave me enough time to go check Zaar for tomorrow's meal! Good recipe Yogi!
I just recently learned that tempeh can actually taste good if you bake it. I cut a slab into 6 triangular pieces and baked in the sauce, covered. I uploaded a photo (how was there not already one on here?). Really great, easy recipe. Thanks Yogi!
Amazing! This has a spicy BBQ flavor to it and I cannot get enough! Thanks so much for this yumminess!
This was so delicious...and I agree with another reviewer that it reminds me of a "tomatoe-y barbeque sauce." It smells so fantastic while it's cooking! And the vinegar and tamari really seem to do something special to the tempeh. Great sauce...will see how tofu holds up to it next. **Update...drained, froze, then thawed some extra firm tofu to try with this great sauce...it was good, but not as good as the tempeh. I think the natural flavor of the tempeh and the great taste of this sauce just work really well together, period.
Wow! So delicious! I used 2 8-oz packages of tempeh instead of just one, and there was plenty of sauce for it. Everyone loved it. 2 of my non-vegetarian friends even asked for the recipe. I'll be making this one often, it's fast, easy, and wonderful!
it was okay. it was actually better the second day but we had to add some sweet curry ketchup to make it better... i think it was just missing some sweetener - i would add some honey or maple syrup to it next time... it needs that. We mixed it with broccoli and rice and rolled it up in toritllas.
This dish is, by far, the best tempeh I have ever tasted. I absolutely loved it (esp. w/green beans and some quinoa). Additionally, I did not have tomato sauce so I used pasta sauce (already seasoned and w/olives and mushrooms). It was simply delightful. Thank you so much, Yogi.
This is so good. I made it exactly by the directions, using Tamari and Flax Tempeh. I served it over quinoa and it was just great. Because I have to fix two meals when I make tempah, I put it in the baking dish about 40 minutes before I put it in the oven. I don't know if that changed anything, but it couldn't have been better.
I think of this as sort of a tomatoey barbeque sauce. It makes for a very 'meaty' sort of vegetarian dish. I serve with baked potatoes and lemon garlic greens.
pretty good :)...i adjusted things slightly as i went along...more onion, added peppers, garlic and 'shrooms...used some soy, and some Braggs till it seem right, also my tomato sauce was a spicy version and my vineger= ACV...we liked it and would most def make it again...very easy to throw together and found it to be extra yummy the second day (i tend to like "saucey thangz"- better the second day :)- this sauce could work with a lot of things :) -Thanks yogi

The Five-Year Engagement wrings a slightly different change on the old boy-meets-girl formula -- and finds enough big laughs to make the whole thing enjoyable, even if it's never particularly fresh.
I wanted to like this film. I like Jason Segel. And Emily Blunt. But the laughs are spotty and Segel tries sooooo hard. The Five Year Engagement is strained and uneven.
The good news: several of this year's standout films at the Tribeca Film Festival are by women. The bad news: some of the fest's worst misfires are also by women.
Your Sister's Sister is effortlessly refreshing and enjoyable throughout. It is clear in every scene that these actors have the utmost trust in their director and are willing to be raw, fun and loose with the material.
Lasse Hallstrom's new movie, Salmon Fishing in the Yemen, is a romance with an improbable premise.
Having discernment for the roles he takes on certainly helps, but the way McGregor fully embodies the characters he plays is not only enjoyable to watch but downright rare.
Salmon Fishing in the Yemen, is a charming romantic comedy that works because of the chemistry between Ewan McGregor and Emily Blunt, and because Simon Beaufoy's script never reaches for a rowdy joke when it can make a smart one.
It's been 20 years since the death of Jim Henson. And Frank Oz has retired as the voice of Miss Piggy and Fozzie Bear. But the Muppets live on in The Muppets movie, as funny, outlandish and sweet as ever.
A few thoughts about the Toronto Film Festival in general before I dive into my thoughts about the four films I saw today: First of all, the phones: ...
Summer is almost upon us, so what a perfect time to release Gnomeo and Juliet on DVD. In this exclusive interview, Veteran Director Kelly Asbury tells his tale of the film's creation and all the in-jokes considered.
The film poses a question that is left open-ended when the credits roll: Is it possible to change our fate?
The critically-acclaimed and nearly-existential Johnny Depp vehicle grossed $38 million over the three-day weekend. That's the biggest opening for a Paramount animated feature not from Dreamworks.
Fate or free will? Unfortunately, the deck is stacked in George Nolfi's The Adjustment Bureau, an adaptation of a Philip K. Dick short story. Oh, the humanity.
In The Adjustment Bureau , we are asked to believe that there could be an organization that monitors each individual's fate so that we stay on path. What path? To where?

It is understandable that the film isn`t exactly the same as the original comic, but the characters and the plot just suck as a film on its own.

LaRue Tactical CQT Mount QD LT106
The options you chose might be on backorder.
Sorry, the chosen combinations are out of stock.
We believe the LT106 to be the finest Leupold CQ/T mount ever made.
They look great, they hold that CQ/T like it's in a vise.
Like all LaRue mounts, it is precision-machined out of bar-stock aluminum and matt black anodized to provide a durable non-reflective surface finish. The locking LaRue Speed Levers provide outstanding return to zero; the optic can be removed, and replaced, without loss of zero. Guaranteed.
Assembly and adjustment only takes a few minutes, then off to the range.
Comes complete with QD adjustment wrench, spare ring screw, vial of blue Locktite and Instructions.

As with everything that LaRue makes this scope mount is perfect and built to last. I am a real fan of the Leupold CQT scope and this mount works like a dream. As good as the scope is, the Leupold factory supplied mount is far less than perfect. It is my opinion that if LaRue makes an item it is the best available and you will find no better. I also have to say that every time I have ordered an item from LaRue I have had perfect, and friendly, service from everyone I have dealt with there. Even when I call with a stupid question!

Far Superior mount over factory. Leupold should be ashamed of itself supplying such garbage for a scope of its caliber. The LaRue mount is as rock solid as it can get for the CQT. Screws together from the underside of the mount with supplied hardware. Perfect tolerance for the scope "feet" fitting into mount ending up with perfect fit.

They also threw in a few cool items that i was not expecting. I will be buying from LaRue again.

I began using this mount in an LE application on a .308 LMT about six weeks ago. It fits the optic perfectly. I have removed and reattached the optic (with the LaRue mount) approximately sixteen times. I have not had to make any adjustments to the optic as point of impact has remained constant. As usual, an excellent product.

The mount is extremely well made and holds the optic very secure. Spent some time at the range to set zero and removed and reattached multiple times to test if the mount and optic would hold zero and of course it did. if you have a CQ/T regardless of the current mount you use, you should make the switch to Larue. Larue has set the standard and you will not be disappointed. Also, they threw in some swag which will go to good use.
