10/24/2014 - "Just have to say what an outstanding job your company does. You always have the best selection of ornaments and I'm so extremely pleased with the personalization. I placed a large order back in the summer. You had just the right ornaments for everyone and they were all perfectly personalized. Having an exchange student join our family last school year and another one this year, I recently purchased the same ornaments for this year's student as I did last year. I like to get an ornament for our tree as a remembrance of each student, and an ornament for them to take back home. The rolling suitcase has worked wonderfully for them, and I love being able to fit what I want the personalization to say without having to count characters! You make this part of Christmas preparation so wonderfully easy for me! Thanks so much and keep up the great work! Regina F."

Reunited and it feels so good!
It's been two long years since Simon Cowell and Paula Abdul sat side-by-side on the American Idol judging panel, and now America's favorite reality TV odd couple have reunited for X Factor's first official preview. The two-and-a-half minute spot, which first premiered during Tuesday's MLB All-Star Game, also includes X Factor judges Nicole Scherzinger and Antonio "L.A." Reid.
PHOTOS: Revisit Simon's last season on American Idol
"This is everything you would dream of doing if you were making a TV show," series creator Cowell tells Us Weekly of filming the in-depth promo, which features him offering positive critiques to singers only to later wake up from a "horrible nightmare." "There is nothing more I could want. In fact, today I was thinking, is there anything else I need? Then, literally, a helicopter was transported past me in a truck, and I think I said we've got it all. This is why you make TV shows. This is everything I've always dreamt of doing."
NEWS: 5 things you don't know about X Factor host Steve Jones
Abdul -- who parted ways with Idol in 2009 after eight seasons -- told Us in May she was "excited beyond words" to reunite with Cowell.
"I'm looking forward to being back with the FOX/FremantleMedia family and know that it will be an extraordinary journey -- we're going to have a blast," Abdul told Us in a statement. "I'm also delighted and grateful to be sitting next to Simon again...but you might want to check back with me in a week or two!"

About-ness and Communities That Last
My initial interest in building a green hill was just to live near my friends and family -- something as simple as purchasing land, building houses, and inviting my loved ones to come on over. But, while that would be wonderful, I realized that my dream was about more than just building a "friends of Dane club". I don't want to be the linchpin that holds everyone together. Read more »

Lady Gaga says there was a hole in her hip
Los Angeles: Singer Lady Gaga says her hip injury was much worse than just a torn cartilage.
The singer had to cancel her shows in February because of the urgent surgery and was confined to a wheelchair for many months after that.
"My injury was actually a lot worse than a tear. I had broken my hip. There were giant craters, a hole in my hip the size of a quarter (like 10 pence), and the cartilage was just hanging out the other side. I had a tear on the inside of my joint and a huge breakage," thesun.co.uk quoted Gaga as saying.
"The surgeon told me if I had done another show I might have needed a full hip replacement. I would have been out at least a year, maybe longer," she added.
Now, Gaga is planning a huge comeback performance with release of her latest album "Artpop".
She has booked the popular ancient Roundhouse Hall in London, which was once a railway engine shed, to launch the album and do a massive show in September.

Despite long-standing rumors that Amy Winehouse was going to record the theme for the new James Bond film, it appears two Americans have beat her to the punch.
Alicia Keys and Jack White of bands The White Stripes and The Raconteurs, will record the theme for "Quantum of Solace," Access Hollywood has learned.
The song duties had also been rumored, at times, to be going to everyone from Leona Lewis to Annie Lennox and Beyonce Knowles.
The new track, called "Another Way To Die," was written and produced by White, who also drums on the number.
It will be the first theme to feature a duet in James Bond history.
"Quantum of Solace" will hit theatres in November, but the soundtrack will be out October 28.
Previous popular Bond themes include Madonna's "Die Another Day," Shirley Bassey's "Goldfinger," Duran Duran's "A View To A Kill," and Paul McCartney's "Live And Let Die."
In addition to being musicians, Keys and White are both big screen veterans.
Keys previously starred in 2006's "Smokin' Aces," while White had a part in 2003's "Cold Mountain," alongside then girlfriend Renee Zellweger.

Gold And The Grave DancersSubmitted by Tyler Durden on 08/01/2015 18:00 -0400
Back in the 1960s, Alan Greenspan wrote a well-known essay that to this day is an essential read for anyone who wants to understand the present-day monetary and economic system (which is a kind of "fascism lite" type of statism, masquerading as capitalism) and especially the almost visceral hate etatistes harbor toward gold. Greenspan's essay is entitled "Gold and Economic Freedom", and as the title already suggests, the two are intimately connected.

Why China Will End Up Like JapanSubmitted by Tyler Durden on 07/27/2015 19:25 -0400
Just as Japan thought they could go back to pre-Plaza Accord growth rates by holding on to the old ways in the 1990s, the Chinese will expect the growth miracle to return in 2016 with the "right" policies. It will not. It is all a mirage though. Just as in Japan, the Chinese will not allow the market process to do its magic to get the economy back on a stable footing. Draconian measures to stop the recent stock market rout are a clear testimony of that. In other words, the Chinese economy will resemble that of Japan, and it will do so very soon, if it is not already there. China is heading straight into a zero growth environment, and will be mired there for years to come.

It all started in China, where as we noted previously, the Shanghai Composite plunged by 8.5% in closing hour, suffering its biggest one day drop since February 2007 and the second biggest in history. The Hang Seng, while spared the worst of the drubbing, was also down 3.1%. There were numerous theories about the risk off catalyst, including fears the PPT was gradually being withdrawn, a decline in industrial profits, as well as an influx in IPOs which drained liquidity from the market. At the same time, Nikkei 225 (-0.95%) and ASX 200 (-0.16%) traded in negative territory underpinned by softness in commodity prices.

Abenomics End Game: Thousands Protest In Downtown Tokyo, Demand Abe's Resignation As PM Disapproval SoarsSubmitted by Tyler Durden on 07/25/2015 18:21 -0400
Years of growing resentment for the Japanese premier, who panders only to the rich, to the exporting corporations, to the Japanese military-industrial complex, and of course, to the US government and Goldman Sachs (whose idea Abenomics was from the very beginning) thousands of protestors rallied Friday night in downtown Tokyo in a campaign of "Say no to the Abe government," targeting Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe's "runaway" policy. The protestors gathered at the Hibiya Park, Diet building and the prime minister's official residence, shouting "Abe step down."

JPY Slides After IMF Warns Debt Is "Unsustainable"Submitted by Tyler Durden on 07/23/2015 09:11 -0400
It appears The IMF is willing to shake the boat of status quo, everything-is-awesome, once again. After proclaiming Greece is screwed and needs a haircut no matter what, the bank to save the world has unleashed a new report on Japan...
We assume Abe and Kuroda will disagree strongly, argue that they just need a little more devaluation and everything will be perfect. The slide in JPY suggests some more capital leaving their shores. It appears The IMF has read some of Kyle Bass' work.

Caterpillar Explains Why It Is A Global RecessionSubmitted by Tyler Durden on 07/23/2015 08:07 -0400
- In Asia/Pacific, the sales decline was primarily due to lower sales in China and Japan.
- Decreases in Latin America were primarily due to continued weak construction activity
- Sales declined in EAME primarily due to the unfavorable impact of currency, as sales in euros translated into fewer U.S. dollars.
- Sales declined in North America as weakness in oil and gas-related construction was largely offset by stronger activity in residential and nonresidential building construction.

MLB Franchise Notes: Red Sox Not Raising Ticket Prices For '13
Published October 16, 2012
BUYING THE BIRDS: Orioles Communications Dir Greg Bader said that the team's front office "has already received more deposits for season tickets this offseason than it had over the previous several years combined." In Baltimore, Jack Lambert notes one of the "more popular promotions from this year's season might not be back" in '13 though. The Orioles "cut bleacher ticket prices to $4 and left field lower box seats to $8 for the final few weeks of the season." The prices, which were "set to honor the anniversary of the Orioles opening of Camden Yard in 1992, helped the team fill the ballpark at the end of the year." Bader said, "It was to continue the celebration of Camden Yards. We weren't just slashing prices" (BALTIMORE BUSINESS JOURNAL, 10/12 issue).
JUST A MATTER OF TIME: In San Diego, Tod Leonard writes golfer Phil Mickelson is "still on target to have a stake in the ownership of the Padres." Mickelson last night said of his possible relationship with the team, "We'll hopefully have something here shortly to announce." Leonard writes all indications are that Mickelson "is in the final stages of negotiations to come on board with the new ownership." Mickelson: "There are a lot of little variables. It's the timing of everything as it relates to my career, how that will work over time -- how we'll work through that and so forth. All of that stuff plays into the whole relationship. We just want to have a clear understanding" (SAN DIEGO UNION TRIBUNE, 10/16).
THE TRIBE HAS SPOKEN: In Cleveland, Joel Hammond notes the Indians' season-ticket base "has decreased steadily since 2008, the year after the team was one game away from the World Series." That year, the Indians had "15,000 full-season equivalents, up 15.3% over 2007, when they had 13,000." But that base "dropped 22% in 2009, to 11,700, and 31% in 2010, to 8,000." Last season, it "dropped to 7,500 and this year is thought to be closer to 6,000." The team was last in MLB attendance "for much of the 2012 season, though it rallied late in the season and finished 29th, averaging 19,797 fans per game." Still, that was "a 13% decrease" (CRAIN'S CLEVELAND BUSINESS, 10/15 issue).

he Carolina Hurricanes thoroughly have enjoyed their season of fun and frolic. But the post-season puts a much greater priority on hard work than on fun, and tonight, the Hurricanes' intention is to make some serious adjustments, to get away from regular-season mode and shift into playoff mode. But can they do it?continued

i've switched to this instead of NACI
3 people found the following review helpful
Posted by Reviewer3231842 on Feb 03, 2009
I used to take NAC to help with the toxic effects of alcohol, but I've read some scary sounding things about NAC recently (even Durk and Sandy say they prefer L-Cysteine to NAC). So until it's cleared up, I'll be taking regular L-Cysteine instead. I've been taking these for a while now and they seem fine. I take them with 1g of Vitamin C, providing what I believe to be the optimal ratio of C to L-Cysteine.

Benjamin Franklin famously wrote, "'In this world, nothing is certain but death and taxes." He was wrong, of course. For one thing, some people legally avoid paying taxes. For another, anytime EM does a product roundup, especially about software, at least one major company is certain to inform us that it is going into the beta-testing phase with an important new version of a product we have included in our article that "changes everything." And, of course, that product will ship by the time the magazine is in print but not soon enough for us to test the final version for our roundup. This usually happens after we are already committed to publishing the story as scheduled. Trust me, your chances of avoiding taxes are far better than are our chances of avoiding this problem.
So it was no surprise that just when Associate Editor Geary Yelton was rolling along with his research for this issue's cover story (see "Powerhouse Samplers" on p. 40), we discovered that two major products were entering beta testing and both would be shipping at or near our newsstand date. One is a new product, Digidesign Structure; the other is a major rewrite of a program, version 2 of MOTU's MachFive. Naturally, without these two new products, our roundup would be closer to a bum steer.
While I disagree with Franklin's principle of certainty, I heartily agree with the old proverb "If life deals you lemons, make lemonade." And indeed, we were ultimately able to turn a first-rate problem into a first-rate article.
The big breakthrough came when, after careful negotiations, both Digidesign and MOTU agreed to give us early beta copies of their new software samplers. We had to wait until the companies were confident that the betas were reasonably stable, and Geary surely held his breath when he first installed and launched them. Fortunately, his computer did not blow up, and he was able to test the two new software samplers thoroughly and include them in our story. Instead of a roundup that would be dated the day we published it, we have a fine story that, to my knowledge, features the first-ever hands-on evaluations of Structure and MachFive 2.
This does not alter our long-standing policy against evaluating beta software in our Reviews section. Betas are not finished software, and although most, if not all, of their features are usually functional, they may be unstable and the developers may still be making decisions about the final feature set. In a regular product review, we want to test the same version that our readers would buy.
But I'm glad that we included the two betas in "Powerhouse Samplers." Our story states clearly that we did not test the shipping version, and we did not criticize the software for the sorts of problems that betas typically have. But we were able to discuss the functionality and usefulness of the main feature set and user interface, as well as the general gestalt of the program.
We appreciate the trust that Digidesign and MOTU showed in giving us early beta software so we could complete this important cover story. Thanks to their cooperation and Yelton's hard work, we have served up some very tasty, refreshing lemonade. Try some!
These are my comments.

Ramon and I went to go have lunch when we ran into the sexy, Angelena. She was looking delectable in that dress. She had some big juicy tits that were almost popping out of her dress. After some persuasion, she was willing to go back to our place to have a good time. Soon after, she was shaking her plump ass around in beautiful fashion. It was not long until her big beautiful tits were out and in Ramons face. She deep throated his cock and got her sweet pussy munched on. She got her pussy pounded while her big jugs bounced around. Then, she rode that cock as her large luscious ass bounced up and down. She got buttermilk all over her wet pussy. Enjoy.

CAIRO — Authorities in Iran hanged 16 people imprisoned for alleged links with anti-regime groups in retaliation for the killing of 17 border guards in an ambush near the boundary with Pakistani.
Those executed were "linked to terrorist and anti-regime groups," the state-owned Far News Agency quoted Mohammad Marzieh, the attorney general of Sistan-Baluchistan province, as saying. They were hanged "in response to the terrorist attack which led to the martyrdom of a number of border guards."
Seven soldiers were also wounded in the attack that took place late yesterday in Saravan, on the south-eastern border with Pakistan, Fars cited Saravan's member of parliament, Hedayatollah Mir-Moradzehi as saying.
Iran has stepped up executions in recent months, with at least 82 people killed in the weeks following President Hassan Rouhani's election in June, Ahmed Shaheed, the United Nations special investigator on human rights said in a report presented to the General Assembly on Oct. 23. Shaheed said he's "alarmed by the spate of executions."
Rouhani, who took office Aug. 4, has pardoned political prisoners in a bid to promote a thaw with global powers over the Islamic republic's disputed nuclear program. International talks in the country's nuclear initiatives were held last week in Geneva, as Rouhani's government seeks relief from sanctions that ave battered its economy.

The world's cheapest car, Tata Motors's Nano, is now on sale in Mumbai, India. The 10-foot, five-seater has a 33bhp, 624cc engine at the rear. It does not come with air bags, air conditioning, power steering or a radio. It retails for $1,979 (AED7,269).
Basically, it's a shadow of a car, with a functioning motor and wheels. For many people, that's more than enough.
Without airbags, however, the Nano could be a death-trap if it went on sale in the UAE. And imagine what the summer would be like without air conditioning…

LeBron James' wife, Savannah Brinson, gave birth to their third child on Oct 22 in Ohio, a source reveals to E! News.
Savannah Brinson Rumors
These are the first shots of Mr and Mrs LeBron James enjoying married life. Basketball's MVP and his long-term girlfriend Savannah Brinson stepped out from San Diego's Grand Del Mar hotel on Sunday, the morning after a lavish ceremony. Radiant in white, the couple, who have two children together, looked fresh and spritely despite three days of partying to celebrate their nuptials. Newly-wed Savannah kept up the bridal theme in a lace strapless jumpsuit with cascading curly hair. Her husband followed in a crisp white T-shirt and trainers. The high school sweethearts held their ceremony in the hotel's Capella Chapel at 4.30pm on Saturday – two days into their celebrations.
LeBron James is tying the knot Saturday with his longtime girlfriend Savannah Brinson right here in San Diego. The wedding is being held at the Grand Del Mar. There has been a lot of speculation about the big event and the A-listers who will be attending. With so many black tinted luxury vehicles entering the Grand Del Mar Saturday, it's anyone's guess who was inside. From locals to resort visitors, information about LeBron James' wedding with high school sweetheart Savannah Brinson were hard to come by.
A big celebrity wedding is set take over San Diego's North County on Saturday when professional basketball player LeBron James marries his high school sweetheart. The Miami Heat star, also known as "King James," will wed fiancée Savannah Brinson at the luxury Grand Del Mar hotel and resort in a wedding undoubtedly fit for a king. Footage from NBC 7's news chopper captured Grand Del Mar employees setting up for the lavish event beginning Thursday (see photo below).
Sources tell us James is planning a smaller wedding than what would normally be expected of an NBA All-Star's nuptials. "He cut the list down because he didn't want to have 1,000 people at the wedding," said one source. It's also likely to be smaller because it will take place during the Jewish day of atonement, Yom Kippur. But the guest list will still number in the hundreds, we're told.
Miami Heat star LeBron James is getting married this weekend in a three-day affair in San Diego, sources tell Page Six. James will marry his longtime love Savannah Brinson in a top-secret and high-security ceremony. Speculation is that the wedding will be held at either the Grand Del Mar or Hotel Del Coronado. The pair, who have dated since high school, got engaged Dec. 31, 2011, and have two children, LeBron Jr. and Bryce.
So in recent weeks, very quietly, she's starting to step out. And James remains all for that. "I just think she has a knack for being powerful," James said. "Women are more powerful than men. Her voice and her being my sidekick, her voice is very powerful, especially to these young women who are underprivileged."

Fake Kidnapping Plot Foiled
Six persons are now in custody in connection with a fake kidnapping plot. This as a result of efforts of the Organised Crime Investigation Division and the St Catherine North Police.
On Thursday, the supposed kidnapee placed a call to his relatives saying his abductors demanded $1.1 million in order for him to be released. The relatives were convinced to pay up "or else".
The police were contacted and an investigation began.
Based on statements from the police an undercover operation was initialized in Spanish Town and an initial payment of $200,000 made to a man. He drove away but was followed onto St Johns Road where he was apprehended by the police.
Following his arrest, investigators learned that the incident was part of a plot to scam the family of the supposed victim.
His capture led to the arrest of the five other individuals including the supposed victim.

Lagos light rail development to cost N400 billion
about 825 days ago
THE Lagos light rail project being developed by the Lagos state government under the supervisory of the Lagos Metropolitan Area Transport Authority (LAMATA) is set to cost about $2.5 billion (N400 billion).
The Vice-Chairman, Infrastructure Bank Plc, Jonan Kruger, who made this known at a media briefing Tuesday in Lagos, said the Lagos light rail project from Marina through Iddo to Agbado has now reached an advanced stage.
According to Kruger, the project, which is tagged: Redline Light Rail Project would be funded by this bank and managed by a consulting firm of Marina Express Consortium.
He said that the Redline project would complement the ongoing Blueline rail project, adding that the Redline project was designed as a private sector initiative and is aimed to ease transportation problems in Lagos.
The bank's vice-chairman explained that the bank entered into negotiation with the Lagos State Government to ensure that the project was profitable for investors. "The Redline is one of the projects that Lagos state has designed to solve the traffic problems in the state."
Managing Director of the bank, Adekunle Oyinloye, said that the Redline would take-off in Marina and join Iddo to meet the Nigerian Railway corridor up to Agbado.
He said that residents along Ikeja, Agege, Agbada and Ifo could be transported up to Agbado to ease transportation problem in the state.

Historical Traveler Reviews Commodore on the Beach Galveston
We stayed here in AUG of 2001 & 2003
My wife & I got married in Galveston 2 yrs ago...we weren;t exactly well off at the time so we needed an affordable hotel. We stayed here and had a blast. The staff was nice and helpful for getting directions to the sites & restaurants. We are MUCH better off now and could comfortably stay anywhere on the island but we were without question going to this hotel. Its location rocks and the view cant be beat. It has great A/C & the beds are comfortable.
Perfect Location
Room w/fridge had a pool outside my door with privacy from the road & beach across the street. Grab a towel and go! Food/drinks/etc.-a few steps away. Other sites a few minutes by car. Forget something? Just a second to go back & get it. WHAT A LOAD OFF! Now that's a vacation destination.
Terrible management go elsewhere
after i made reservations 2 days later they inform me that the room was not available but there were other rooms available for a higher price sounds like to me they are price gouging don't waste your time with this place you might be surprised
Good Place To Stay
No, this isnt your fanciest hotel on the island but it is a good place to stay. The room is nice and spacious and the bathroom is big and clean. The room was comfortable and the staff were very nice. Its a great place to stay with the family. And it is right by some great places to eat , plus the beach is right across the street.
Very Pleased-Will Return
I must say, I was a little nervous about staying in a hotel I wasn't familiar with, but as soon as we arrived at the Commodore, I relaxed right away! The whole staff is VERY nice, and the place is kept very very clean. I never once saw a roach, and the swimming pool was WONDERFUL! The rooms are not fancy, but that isn't why we went to Galveston in the first place. The beds did not sagg, and my kids enjoyed the continental breakfast. If you're looking for posh surroundings, you might want to keep looking. But, if you are on a budget and fancy isn't on your list, I would say this hotel will work just fine! Oh...and when they say across the street from the beach, they aren't kidding! There is a traffic light right outside the hotel, and the view is really beautiful! We had a great time!
Great Family Place!
Our family stayed here for 3 nights and the kids just loved it! The location is excellent, just cross the street at the light (no need to dodge the traffic) and you're at the beach. Personnally, we liked having to have tokens for ice; it kept people not registered using their facilities (what's wrong with that?) The people were very friendly and helpful and it's nice to know you can go to the lobby for free coffee, donuts, etc. We were drawn to this hotel on the internet because all their rooms (balconies) face the ocean - great to enjoy at night when the kids are finally asleep!This is our favorite hotel to stay now in Galveston - we'll be back!
Great place for the money/location
This was a great place for the family. It was very affordable and in the best location (right next door to Joe's crab shack and Gaido's, the best seafood restaurant on the island. The continental breakfast is good, staff very courteous, a nice, clean place. Our kids loved it because you could walk right out of our 1st floor room and be at the pool! I could watch them from the patio. I've stayed here 3 times and have never seen a roach, and the beds did not sag. (That other rating was not typical of this motel.)
Take the family somewhere else
After our kids where asleep, our room was invaded by 30+ roaches. Staff came to spray with Raid, but it didn't help. We slept lightly with lights on and scanned the room throughout the night. If you are going to Galveston just to party, this may be a good place, but if you are taking your family, spend the extra money for someplace newer and cleaner.
Great Place to Stay on the Seawall
This hotel was very comfortable. The staff were pleasant, cordial and very giving of their time. There was a wide variety of foods to choose from for the Continitetal breakfast as well as a clean and comfortable area in which to enjoy it.
I will certainly stay here again. Hopefully soon.
Thank you for a pleasant stay.
Awful hotel
I read everything about this hotel and nothing was ever said that it was a MOTEL - you had to have tokens to get a hand full of ice and you could hear every toilet flush. It would be fine for the drinking, partying crowd but not a family vacation. And for the cookies and milk at night ha ha they're just from a package. Sagging beds!!!

Head on collision near Vernal injures 3
, Utah Highway Patrol
VERNAL — Three people were injured Friday in a crash that briefly shut down Highway 40.
The crash happened a mile west of Vernal about 7:45 a.m. when a 24-year-old Roosevelt man driving a Chevrolet pickup truck crossed into oncoming traffic, according to the Utah Highway Patrol.
The Chevrolet crashed head-on into a Dodge pickup truck occupied by a 28-year-old Colorado man and a 32-year-old South Carolina woman, troopers said.
The impact sent the Dodge off the roadway and caused the Chevrolet to roll onto its roof. The Chevrolet slid for several hundred feet before coming to a stop, troopers said.
Troopers have not released the names of the people involved in the crash. All three were injured. They were taken to Ashley Regional Medical Center for treatment.
The crash shut down U.S. 40 for about 30 minutes. Alcohol use is believed to be a contributing factor in the crash, troopers said.
