Endura overshoe is an excellent value
- Gender: Male
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
Very well made, good sole coverage and durable walking surface. The neoprene material looks sleek and is completely waterproof. Excellent for my commuting use. Strong zipper, great reflective details for night riding. SIZING RUNS SMALL. I followed the chart for sizing recommendations and had to return them for the next size up. Even at that they aren't any too big. These will be great for winter commuting.

Poor Construction
The shoe covers worked fine...for one bike ride!
Second time I put them on the Zipper came off, and I wasn't even pulling on it very hard.
I believe Endura may be having some quality control problems with their Chinese manufacturer.
I had the same issues with the zippers. The small metal clips that act as zipper stops appear to have been too small or weak to withstand a firm pull up to the stop. I'm on my 3rd pair (first 2 failed at the zipper stops). The stops now appear to have been improved (larger and more aggressive) and have held up well all winter with nearly daily use in Seattle. I'm still wary about the stops and am now careful when zipping up. I've also sewn in a a few stitches around the metal stops to try to prevent them from popping off.
Why do I stick with the Endura covers despite all this for the past 3 winters? For the money, they're a very good value. they've kept my feet as warm and dry as anything else I've tried (that includes covers costing 2 times as much). For $40 a pair, I can go through 2 pair before spending more than the most expensive covers I've tried (not that I'm advocating throw away covers). The neoprene is waterproof and the 3-way stretch Kevlar reinforced sole makes it easy to pull on and off as well providing a snug seal around the soles and cleats. They're not baggy/saggy and fit tight around the ankles or under the cuffs of rain paints. The neoprene is somewhat susceptible to small holes and tears suffered during daily use. A small drop of crazy glue will easily mend these. With a little care, my current Endura covers should last at least a couple more winters of hard use.

You build rockets and you send them out in space and put them in orbits. I just need to get over the feeling of loosing kerbonauts on spacewalks. It is awful to see the halfwitted creatures drifting helplessly off in the vast emptiness of space. It is awesome to build rockets though.

|Where are they now? » Home
Wednesday, April 21, 2010Frankie Mayo Williams is a member of the Lipscomb Athletics Hall of Fame and is one of the top tennis players to compete as a Lady Bison. She was the team captain and played the No.1 position in both singles and doubles all four years. She graduated from Lipscomb in 1976 with a degree in Home Economics. She works two-part time jobs in Knoxville, but considers herself to be primarily a homemaker. She is active in a variety of civic and church activities, but took time to talk with LipscombSports.com.
What sport(s) did you play at Lipscomb? What years? Who were your coaches?
"I played tennis from 1972-76. My coaches were Jenny MacDonald and Phyllis Saunders.
What is your fondest athletic memory at Lipscomb?
"I don't know if I have a single one. A great part of my college experience was to get to play tennis for Lipscomb. My teammates, the people I practiced and played with everyday are all good memories. We had some good matches, but I can't remember one that stands out more than another. I looked forward to the practices, the matches, the traveling and the things we did as a team.
Who had the biggest influence on you during your athletic career at Lipscomb?
"It was definitely `Fessor Boyce'. He started my brother, David, playing tennis. He wanted me to get started when I was 10 years old. Even after I got out of college I would come to the campus on Saturday mornings and we would play mixed doubles. He was a great coach, mentor and friend."
What is your fondest non-athletic memory from your time at Lipscomb?
"I was involved with Delta Sigma social club. There are good memories there. There were great girls in the club. We had a lot of fun together from community service to Bible studies."
What is the most valuable thing you gained or learned from your time at Lipscomb?
"I came from a good religious background to begin with, but the reinforcement and broadening of the knowledge has helped carry through my whole life. It was great to meet people from all over the place. The instructors in classes were top rate and from what I see and hear it is getting better all the time. That is great to hear."
Who was your favorite professor? Why?
"Dr. Rodney Cloud and Dr. Harvey Floyd. Rodney was entertaining as well as knowledgeable. Dr. Floyd taught me a lot about grace. He helped me see it in a way that I had never seen it before. He was definitely a good one. I always looked forward to going to his classes."
Where do you live now?
Knoxville, Tenn.
Who is your employer? What is your occupation? What does your position entail?
"I work part-time in jewelry and clothing stores. I also do engraving. I pretty much work every day, but I am a homemaker."
Tell us about your family.
"My husband is Patrick Williams. We have two children, Laura Lynn Stubbs and Christopher."
2009-10 Where are they now?

After spending some time with NeoOffice on my MacBook, I decided to give iWork and AppleWorks a shot. iWork just doesn't seem to cut it from either a usability or a feature front. AppleWorks is just different. NeoOffice seems to do everything that one can expect OpenOffice to do. I refuse to use MS Office since I have no desire to spend the money for compatibility.
Am I missing something or is the best choice the free and Free one? AppleWorks is old, yes, and it is discontinued now, but isn't bad. But it isn't as good in my first weeks of usage as NeoOffice.
Am I right, or missing something?

I proudly came up with my own motto my last year of college: No Shame, No Expectations, No Regrets. I similarly wrote in my Senior Wisdom for my college's infamous BWOG that I had no regrets. Many doubted the veracity of this assertion. But, it was true. I had no regrets because I wanted to be where I was: in knowledge, in pace, in circumstance, in personal development, in weaknesses, in strengths, and in overcoming those weaknesses. So I have no regrets now as well, for it is how I became the person I am now. And it is how I have come to focus on specific issues, and how I can now share my (limited) wisdom with the next batch of law students.
1) Don't be afraid to raise your hand. You don't sound as stupid as you think. And, though you may try to articulate yourself perfectly, to the point where the professor praises your brilliance, this is a rare reality. I was always so concerned with sounding perfect in my answer that I never raised my hand until I had rehearsed it multiple times in my head. Wrong. Slow. Inefficient. Next. As cliché as it sounds, you are not paying $40k+ to articulate the perfect answer to an academic. You're paying that much to use that academic as a resource to try to articulate your thoughts.
2) Get those supplements. Early, for each class, and read them. My professors would drone on and on about some subject, only for me to realize weeks later that they are going to make a completely different conclusion than what I had been focusing upon. Supplements are those north stars for each law class. The law is taught in the Socratic method to law students, slowly drawing out concepts from caselaw and majority opinions, concurring opinions and dissenting opinions. It seems that most of the time, I was driving on some uncertain, shaken road, all in a fog. At the very end, I might have been able to draw what the important point was. Maybe. Maybe not. But, supplements do this for you. It's not cheating. It's being efficient. Read the summary of the cases and the associated doctrines you'll read in that Contracts class before that Socratic tool is used upon you in class. It'll be your buoy in Contracts, holding you in place and being that guiding star of what the law is speaking towards.
3) Don't forget who you are. Don't give up on your interests and identity for the sake of law school success. I came into law school, committed to my Catholic faith. Nothing would ever shake it, or take me away from it. But, I went from contacting the campus minister in April of my senior year of college to sometimes only being the superficial face of the ministry at the law school. Without that intrinsic emotional, intellectual, and personal identity, you can lose your path and lose that motivation to strive towards success and goals that had originally gotten you to law school.
4) Don't get hurt by law school drama. Don't talk garbage about anyone. Law school is middle school, but with alcohol, depression, drug abuse and sex. This is why you should, see below, befriend the locals to escape this unhealthy social situation.
5) Befriend the locals and make non-law school friends. It'll be good for your sanity. Law school attracts a certain OCD type of student that will drive you up the wall. It's all about that balance.
6) Don't settle for the first internship or job offer you get. My first summer of law school, I knew I wanted to participate in the Blackstone Legal Fellowship through Alliance Defending Freedom. I was blessed to be accepted and had one of the most rewarding experiences. However, my second summer I was just anxious for a summer internship. I didn't care what it was, as long as it met some standard I had superficially created in my head. When I received such an offer in September of my 2L year, I quickly accepted and did not bother looking for other, better opportunities. I was so caught up in the 2L herd mentality of securing a summer placement, that I did not exercise the correct judgment and discretion in my internship search. Your 2L summer placement can make or break you. Mine did neither. It did not help me. It might have just been neutral towards my resume. I learned from this the following year, rejecting the first job offer I received, and withholding a commitment to other job offers, all the while trying to decide judicially what option would be the most beneficial. And as I write this, it's May with one job offer rejected, and three more being juggled against one another. It's stressful, but the time spent discerning is well worth it. (Also, see, it is possible to get a job after law school!)
7) Do Write-On. Just do it. You might be exhausted from exams, but write-on will enable you to get on law review or some journal. This will help you get a job. I promise.
8) Don't like your grades? Ask for help. Go to your professors and ask them to go through the exam with you. Find out why your thoughts weren't communicated well or effectively onto the paper. If you don't ask for help, you'll make the same mistakes over and over again.
There are a lot of points I've made, and there are even more pieces of wisdom that even I haven't learned yet. But, there's a bottom line to all of this. No regrets. Hindsight is 20-20 always. So don't kick yourself in the butt as a 3L at your 1L decisions. You made those decisions for a reason at the time. You've become the person you are today because of your past, all the good and bad. Heed this advice as you want, but do not classify yourself as a failure because you learned things along the way. It's the brilliance of not only law school but of life as well: we're always learning. #studentforlife
I am very pleased to announce an expansion of the ways that law students will be able to purchase access to our popular CasebookConnect website, which we launched last summer under the aegis of the Connected Casebook program. Until now, CasebookConnect access has been available only in conjunction with a rental book. Starting in fall 2015, all formats of titles in the program – rental and other formats – will include access to CasebookConnect.com for no additional cost.
Before I outline the new purchase options, I'd like to give an overview about CasebookConnect and share some of the market reaction to the website, gathered from surveys and customer interviews we have conducted over the past year.
CasebookConnect has three main components:
In aggregate, the tools we have designed in CasebookConnect are intended to help every law student—regardless of their incoming level of preparedness—succeed in even the most challenging law school classes.
You can read more about the features and goals of the website at www.CasebookConnect.com.
During our survey process this past year, we asked students how useful they found each individual feature in the website, as well as the website as a whole. Here is what students had to say about CasebookConnect:
"This was one of the best experiences I've had with a casebook. . . . The ebook was really easy to use and made my finals so much easier with the notes and highlighting being transferred to a running outline." —Jason K., Law Student
"This was one of the best experiences I've had with a casebook. . . . The ebook was really easy to use and made my finals so much easier with the notes and highlighting being transferred to a running outline."
—Jason K., Law Student
"It allows me to always have my book with me, and not to have to lug a huge book to school all the time. It's also easy to copy and paste text into my notes, and that makes briefing case and keeping up with outlining much easier. I hope to use it for other textbooks." —Kaitlin W., Law Student

"It was really handy to have the book online and a physical copy. I go to school in NYC and commuting with a heap of books is the last thing I want to do, but being able to read the textbook at home and leave my books at school was great." —Andrew N., Law Student

—Andrew N., Law Student
Overall, law students who used the product this past academic year have consistently found CasebookConnect to be an extremely useful and effective tool. In fact, the major critiques we have consistently heard from students are:
Today I am pleased to announce that we are responding to both of these needs. In today's post, I will focus on the second. (I will address the first in a subsequent post.)
Beginning in July, students will now be able to purchase CasebookConnect in three ways:
Despite the great value that students have found in the CasebookConnect website, the casebook-plus-CasebookConnect option will be sold at exactly the same price as the casebook was previously sold for on its own. The rental-plus-CasebookConnect and looseleaf-plus-CasebookConnect options will be sold at discounted levels, reflecting the lower manufacturing cost of those options.
Here's an example showing the new purchase options for Property, Eighth Edition by Dukeminier, Krier, Alexander, Schill, and Strahilevitz.
Original textbook purchase (without CasebookConnect access)
New textbook purchase plus CasebookConnect access
Looseleaf plus CasebookConnect access
Rental plus CasebookConnect access
The pricing model has been designed to ensure that those students who continue to prefer a traditional purchased textbook can have the benefit of a rich digital learning companion at no additional cost, while students who are searching for discounted options have high quality choices as well.
The new traditional and looseleaf purchase options will be available to students through bookstores and online retailers. The rental plus CasebookConnect option will continue to be available primarily at www.barristerbooks.com/wk.
With this new set of purchase options, we look forward to helping an even broader set of law students have access to a range of tools that empower them to find academic and professional success.

Undercover Karaoke with Jewel
Voice-over: Exclusive.
Jewel: "So, Funny or Die called me and they wanted me to dress up as
somebody else, and have me go to a karaoke bar and sing my own songs,
and see if people would recognize it as me.
"Going through the makeup process was really fun. I got to wear a wig
and a big fake nose. This nose got bigger. And a business suit, and kind
of like a (unintelligible) suit. I had a butt for the first time in my
life. I'm pretty excited about it.
"I had a lot of business associates with me. We had little laminates
that were from a frozen foods convention. When me and my fellow
associates got to the karaoke bar, it was a really unusual place. They
were taking their karaoke very seriously."
(Karaoke singing.)
Jewel: "We really stood out. And then one by one, my guys started
getting up and singing karaoke, and in the middle of it they'd yell out
'Karen, you're next.'"
Crowd: "Karen, You're coming up next. Get you up here Karen. Karen. Karen, get up here and dance with us!"
Jewel: "And, it really wound the crowd up, like they'd look at me and
they're going 'Well, Karen, are you gonna get up there?' and I'd be
like, 'I don't want to.'"
Crowd: "Karen, Karen, Karen!"
Announcer: "Karen to the stage, please, Karen."
Jewel: "I could tell people were kind of pulling for me. I could tell
they knew I was nervous, and they kind of were wanting me to do good.
(Takes microphone). You guys, (unintelligible)."
Woman 1: "She sounds like Jewel."
Jewel: "I'm really pulling for Karen, like Karen was going to make it out of frozen foods. (Laughs.)"
(Crowd reacts with cheers as Jewel continues to sing.)
Man 1:"At first when I saw her sitting with three people, I said, well,
you know, she was kind of homely looking, but then when she started
singing, God! She's so sexy, how she's dancing!"
Announcer: "Shall we have her sing another Jewel song?"
(Crowd cheers.)
Announcer: "Yes, yeah, I think we should."
Man 1:"I think it's the first time that there's ever been an encore here."
Man 2:"It was, um, pretty off the charts there. (Unintelligible.)"
(Jewel sings.)
Woman 2 "Every person was like 'Wow, that girl is really good. She shouldn't be here.'"
Man 3: "She's got an unbelievable voice. I'll be honest, I would like to hear her sing again."
Woman 3. "I just thought she had been a professional, but they told me she only sings at Christmas parties."
(Jewel sings. Crowd reacts with cheers.)
Man in crowd: "Are you serious right now? Oh, my god."
Woman on the street: "I mean, it didn't matter, with a voice like that,
how pretty you are. With a voice like that, you can be an ugly girl and
get laid all the time."
Jewel: "And then we decided when I got off stage to go get out of my
prosthetics -- take the nose off, take the wig off -- and I came back
in, and they introduced me as Jewel, and I got up and sang."
Announcer: "Please welcome to the stage, Jewel!"
(Crowd cheers)
(Jewel sings.)
Jewel: "It was sweet. I mean, the whole bar was singing along.
"It's neat that I wrote a song when I was 18, and here we are years
later, and like the whole bar and karaoke kids were all singing it.
Everybody knew all the words. It was very sweet.
"Thank you guys."
Crowd: "Karen, Karen Karen...!"
Interviewer on the street: "So, did you see when she was in there as Karen?"
Woman 2: "Wha... Oh my gosh! I was duped."
Man 1: "I don't want to tell Jewel, but the girl that was singing her song may have actually been slightly better."
Interviewer: "Karen was actually Jewel. We put a fake nose on her and glasses and a wig, and, and..."
Man 1: "Wow! You guys are f**king geniuses. Wow! It was the same person. Oh."
Interviewer: "Great. I'm glad you had a good time."
Man 1: "Incredible. Wow. Thank you. Good night."

Cycle touring is an intense physical activity, so it can really take a toll on the human body. As you ease into a tour, you're building up your muscles and burning tons of calories, and you need a lot of energy and nutrients to stay on top of that. Here are a few examples of foods to look for while on tour, if you need a boost.

Inkspellby Cornelia Funke
Staff Pick
In the hopes of saving Dustfinger from Basta, Farid and Meggie have entered Inkworld by reading themselves into the book Inkheart. Fenoglio who entered Inkworld at the end of the first book, keeps trying to rewrite parts of the story, but he's discovered that the story characters have a life and will of their own. I loved Inkspell. Find out what happens in this second installment of what I hope is a series ('cause I want more)!
A thrilling, page-turning sequel to Inkheart. Beloved characters return, new ones make their triumphant debut, and above all, a love of reading and books permeates each page of action-packed, cliff-hanging adventure.
Synopses & Reviews
Publisher Comments:
The captivating sequel to Inkheart, the critically acclaimed bestseller!
Although a year has passed, not a day goes by without Meggie thinking of Inkheart, the book whose characters came to life. But for Dustfinger, the fire-eater brought into being from words, the need to return to the tale has become desperate. When he finds Orpheus, a crooked storyteller with the magical ability to read him back, Dustfinger leaves behind his young apprentice Farid and plunges into the medieval world of the past. Distraught, Farid goes in search of Meggie. Before long, both are caught inside the book, too. And the story is threatening to evolve in ways neither of them could ever have imagined.
Like Inkheart, Inkspell features the special touches that transform Funke's novels into keepsakes. Each chapter begins with a surprisingly relevant literary excerpt and concludes with a charming line illustration by the author herself. And this, the second book in the trilogy, also includes a hand-drawn map of the Inkworld and, as a helpful reference for readers old and new, a "dictionary" of characters. Silvertongue, Fenoglio, Crookback, Firefox: The entire epic cast is described in detail.
"In this spellbinding follow-up to Inkheart, Funke expertly mixes joy, pain, suspense and magic. In the opening chapter, Dustfinger returns to Inkheart, the fantastic novel (within Funke's novel of the same name) from which he was sprung, and his 'devoted' apprentice, Farid, asks Meggie to use her magical reading powers to send him into the story. Meggie, lured by the 'place of marvels and adventures,' goes with him. Her parents soon follow. The omniscient narrator allows readers to jump from the 'real' world to Inkworld, where a war is brewing between Ombra Castle and the evil Adderhead's Castle of Night. Worse, Meggie's father, Mo (aka Silvertongue), is mistaken for a Robin Hood — type figure known as the Bluejay and is to be executed. Readers will race along with Meggie and other Inkheart favorites as the characters try to create a 'happy ending.' Funke again cleverly plays with the power of words: Fenoglio, the author of Inkheart, now lives in the world he created and continues to write new story lines — which play out in often unintended ways (e.g. he bases the Bluejay character on Meggie's father, putting Mo in danger). This is a thick and dark book (the Magpie shoots Mo, nearly killing him, and Basta appears for a final showdown), as well as sophisticated — especially the romance blossoming between Farid and Meggie, and Dustfinger's complicated relationship with Meggie's mother. There is much left to explore; readers will eagerly await the last in the planned trilogy. Ages 8-up." Publishers Weekly (Copyright Reed Business Information, Inc.)
"This is an involving story that will draw readers smoothly to its conclusion and leave them waiting for the final volume in this projected trilogy." School Library Journal
"Funke delivers more than enough action, romance, tragedy, villainy and emotion to keep readers turning the pages — and waiting for the sequel the cliffhanger ending promises." Kirkus Reviews
In this sequel to Inkheart, Dustfinger, the fire-eater brought into being from words, has a desperate need to return to the tale. Before long, the reader who brought Dustfinger to life is caught inside the book, too, as the story evolves in ways neither of them imagined.
The captivating sequel to INKHEART, the critically acclaimed, international bestseller by Cornelia Funke, an author who is emerging as a truly modern classic writer for children.
Although a year has passed, not a day goes by without Meggie thinking of INKHEART, the book whose characters became real. But for Dustfinger, the fire-eater brought into being from words, the need to return to the tale has become desperate. When he finds a crooked storyteller with the ability to read him back, Dustfinger leaves behind his young apprentice Farid and plunges into the medieval world of his past. Distraught, Farid goes in search of Meggie, and before long, both are caught inside the book, too. But the story is threatening to evolve in ways neither of them could ever have imagined.
About the Author
Cornelia Funke is the internationally acclaimed, bestselling author of The Thief Lord, Dragon Rider, and the Inkheart trilogy, along with many other chapter and picture books for younger readers. She lives in Los Angeles, California, in a house filled with books.

Celebrity Bad Breath – Vivien Leigh and Clark GableWednesday, June 10th, 2009
Vivien Leigh and Clark Gable were previously voted "Best Onscreen Couple" based on their movie appearances in Gone With The Wind. However, despite their onscreen chemistry, kissing scenes apparently were not at all desirable in Vivien's eyes. They failed to make friends on the set, and Vivien said she did not like kissing Clark because he had excessively bad breath. Consequently, despite the fact that Clark and Vivien participated in one of the greatest epic dramas ever filmed, bad breath was a prominent reason as to why their onscreen chemistry was indeed purely acting.

The first Crate amplifier was built in 1978, and in the decades since, these amps have only gotten better. Bringing heavy metal and rock-ready crunch to the solid-state amp segment, Crate has become a trusted name for musicians of all stripes. When you pipe your axe's tones through a Crate guitar amplifier, meaty distortion is easy to achieve and you can count on the amp's reliability to keep it going strong for gig after gig. To decide which Crate amplifier is the right one for you, start by thinking about how you play and ask yourself a few questions. Where do you plan to play with your new amp? For small to medium venues, rehearsal and studio use, the FlexWave Series FW65 is a great option. This 65W combo amp is more than powerful enough for most stages, but also likes quieter tones when you need them. Packed with a 12" speaker, the FW65 is small enough to transport easily but large enough to shake the walls when you need it to.
For larger venues where you have to push lots of air to get the sound to all corners of the room, check out the FW120H Guitar Amp Head and the FW412 speaker cabinet. With a 120W amp driving over three square feet of speaker cones, the sound you'll get out of this half-stack will be felt as much as heard. Crate was even thoughtful enough to put this duo in a bundle for your convenience: the FlexWave FW120HS and FW412 Half Stack. Simple.
If you're looking for the most versatile combo amp in Crate's lineup, then direct your attention to the Taxi Series TX50DB Limo. Pushing 50W through a 10" driver, this combo delivers sound as luxurious as its name. It can also be oriented virtually any way you like, including on a standard speaker stand. There's no wrong way to play a Limo. Do you play acoustic guitar? If so, Crate has you covered with amps like the CA120DG Durango, CA6110DG Gunnison and CA30DG Taos. Whatever your instrument and style, there's a Crate for you.
Go ahead and give Crate guitar amplifiers a try; they won't disappoint. These are some of the best-sounding solid state amplifiers that you will ever hear, and since you don't have the longevity drawbacks of tubes to worry about, you'll be hearing them for years of reliable rocking to come.

Green Tea Questions

You can buy caffeine free green teas, I have never tried them though, a quick web search brought up many sources.
You might like to try some naturally caffeine free teas like mugi-cha (barley tea).

On a side note if you are interested in purchasing organic green tea from Japan then send me a PM. There are only two(2) that's right folks two, certified organic tea gardens in Japan and one of them is sold under the name of Keiko Teas from Kagoshima in Japan. There are around 10 teas in total. Check them out at www.teaontheweb.com
As far as I know the only place in NA where you can get them. Very good quality teas as well. I have tried all of them and have been very impressed. Different from green teas from Shizuoka but certainly of equal or better quality. Not cheap but certified organic and very good quality.

I think it's reputed (with some clinical evidence) to both help prevent cancer and to retard tumor growth in certain kinds of cancers.
I have been doing a lot of reading about Chinese green tea and its health effects. Has anyone had any experience with these teas and what can you tell me about it
All I can tell you is that I drink green tea and don't have cancer, as far as I know. Fortunately, I have no personal experience with the latter use.
Red teas, of the other hand, are reputed to lower cholesterol and be otherwise beneficial to the heart. Maybe we should all be drinking both.

Very interesting. I purchased a container of tettle green tea today. really rather good. I filled my coffee perculator 1/3 of the way with water, filled the pot with ice. Placed 3 bags in the filter and made chilled green tea. I believe I'm addicted. I like it plain. Its was refreshing to say the least
Posted 30 June 2004 - 08:09 AM
FWIW-Personally, I never use boiling water to make tea. I allow it to steep overnight.
You should use cooler than boiling water - anywhere from 150-165 F, and brew from 30 seconds to 1.5 minutes. Failure to follow this advice might leave you with bitter or ashtray tasting tea.
I usually make a gallon at a time and get everything together the night before. When I was younger we used to call this sun tea. We would throw about 12-14 tea bags in a gallon of water along with some lemon slices and set it in the sun to brew. It was never bitter and always refreshing.

Er, shouldn't that be Moon Tea? Or maybe you live in Barrow, Alaska.

We used to make tea with cold water in a mason jar, placing it on a window ledge so it could catch the sun's rays. It was known as "Squaw Tea."

I also love making green tea sorbet and it's easy if you have an ice cream maker.
Just make a double-strength brew of tea, sweeten to taste (and a little extra), cool, and freeze using your ice cream maker's instructions.

Genmai means brown rice, i.e., unmilled rice. It is toasted and mixed with green tea.
My favorite is the favorite in the article as well.........the Genmai Cha. I think its the toasted rice in it.

I do not find the flavor of green tea at all objectionable. Unlike black tea, I find I do not need to add sugar to it.

I love this tea!
The Republic of Tea sells this as "Tea of Inquiry" and I fell in love with my first sip.
I never knew the real name until now, but I have been drinking this for a few years. Can someone recommend a favorite I should try?
Posted 03 February 2005 - 09:57 AM
Is tea like coffee in that it should be consumed within a period (?) after roasting/prepping for market? Is fresher tea (whatever that is) better for you than tea that's in bags (and boxes)?
Here's why I ask - I, like the folks on this thread advocate, have green tea during the day. I prefer Eden's Bancha (boxed & bagged tea) because it tastes best (lots of tasting went on; learned about various roasts) and the package/their other product lines gives me faith that this is a quality product.
However... I received this rather ornate box about 6 mo's ago from a friend who went to China. In it was a bag (ziploc, after digging thru more fancy packing) of 'green tea'. Really dark green tea. Prolly been in the box, like, forever. I can imagine this will taste strong. Chinatown herb shops are full of these nice boxes with somewhat strange products with undocumented authenticity & efficacy - tea aside.
Anyhow - tea pro's, green tea experts - would you drink the gift? Can you guide on q's...?
Many thanks.

are they rolled into balls? are leaves short/long, wide/thin?
does tea have an aroma?
my suggestion is to try some of the tea-take 2tsp of tea and try it with 6-8 oz. of water at 190 degrees
Posted 03 February 2005 - 10:24 AM
describe the leaves-...
Yes. Balls. Leaves are kind of large, maybe on the wider side... Smells like common tea...
That's one of the things that got me thinking (beside gullet timeliness) as a podmate was espousing his ideas about green tea (is kind of a 'hot' topic 'round the 'cooler) and he opined that green tea, rolled into little balls can have ginseng in it (my box doesn't say anything in english) and is *really good for ya*. I dunno...
But he was describing the tea in this fancy box under my desk...

A 22-year old Helper man was arrested and a quantity of suspected heroin seized Friday after a traffic stop in Helper. Helper Police Chief Trent Anderson identified the suspect as Christopher Hooper.
City police worked in cooperation with the Carbon Metro Drug Task Force and Utah Adult Probation and Parole in the arrest.
Anderson said the suspect had been under investigation for several weeks.
When Hooper was stopped for traffic violations, he was found to be "transporting a fairly large amount of heroin that was packaged for sale," according to Anderson.
Hooper was taken into custody and booked into the Carbon County Jail for Possession of Heroin with Intent to Distribute, Possession of Drug Paraphernalia, Unsafe Lane Travel and a "72 Hour Hold," placed by AP&P.
"This investigation is ongoing and more arrests are expected to come," the chief stated.

CANTON - A new set of decorative lights, valued at $150,000, is being installed along downtowns Main Street as crews continue to make progress on the first phase of the $9.55 million Route 11 reconstruction project.
A total of 30 vintage-style light fixtures, at a cost of $5,000 each, are being installed by crews from Stilsing Electric, Rensselaer, the subcontractor hired by general contractor, Luck Bros. Inc., Plattsburgh.
Thomas A. Maroun Jr., the projects engineer for the state Department of Transportation, said installation of the lights should be finished by Wednesday, but its uncertain if the lights will be functioning before the Nov. 23 Holiday of Lights celebration in the village park.
Mr. Maroun said National Grid has been contacted about activating the lights, but the companys crews are busy in the Long Island area restoring power knocked out by Superstorm Sandy.
Also, the lights will be powered by two different electrical circuits and have to be inspected before they are allowed to operate.
The new LED lights are supposed to be more energy efficient have a longer lifespan than the former incandescent lights.
The 15-foot high light fixtures look similar to the 30 vintage-style cast iron poles that were removed in June to make way for the street work. The new ones are made of aluminum and were manufactured by Holophane, a Grantville, Ohio company. They feature two banner arms and a bracket for light poles.
At this point we are doing our best and cant promise the lights will be up and powered by Nov. 23, but every effort is being made, DOT spokesman Michael R. Flick said in an email. The winter shut down will depend on the weather and the remaining work. Were guessing shutdown by Christmas.
Village Superintendent Brien E. Hallahan said the old poles are being securely stored and will eventually be installed at different places within the village. Three are planned for the Pearl Street Park across from the St. Lawrence County Courthouse.
Some people have expressed different ideas, but we havent really elaborated on the plan, Mr. Hallahan said. We will be doing something with them.
Some concerns have been raised about the new granite curbing being destructive to vehicle tires that rub against them.
Mr. Hallahan said the previous curbs were also made of granite, which is supposed to be the most durable material.
The DOT just replaced what was already there, he said.
This week, crews from Syrstone Inc., Syracuse, started laying brick on the street side section of the sidewalks. The new concrete sidewalks are nearly finished in the downtown section. The metal stairwells will be replaced next spring.
The second phase involves reconstructing Main Street from the village park to the intersection of Stiles Avenue, upgrading the CSX railroad crossing and construction a cul-de-sac on Jay Street. Replacing underground water and sewer pipes and installing new storm drainage along the 1.1-mile stretch are major components of the two-year project.

In China, where long working hours can make it difficult for parents to stay connected with their kids, Oreo harnessed emojis to facilitate more family bonding. Using WeChat, China's popular messaging platform, the Mondelēz brand allowed users to create emoji characters that incorporated photos of themselves or their kids, as well as celebrities. Users could choose from various templates and actions, including animations. Consumers could also project their emojis onto the screens at Oreo bus shelters and print out stickers of their creations.
The emojis proved a hit—more than 99 million were created over the course of the 11-week campaign. While Oreo appears to be the first marketer to let people emojify themselves, brands including Honda and Singapore's SingTel have done various clever things with these teeny images as communications become much more visually driven. Given their whimsical appeal across generations, emojis were a smart way for Oreo to expand its positioning as a brand that brings parents and kids together, in this case finding a way to drive a mobile connection for absent parents.

Residents of the citys north side soon should learn more about a state Department of Health study on the health effects of the chemicals dumped for decades at the former New York Air Brake site.
State Health Department officials have invited residents to a public meeting from 7 to 9:30 p.m. Oct. 22 at the North Elementary School auditorium, 171 E. Hoard St.
Last year, the Vititoe Law Group the firm made famous by environmental activist Erin Brockovich agreed to represent residents who believe they have suffered health problems because of toxic chemicals dumped at the Starbuck Avenue site.
On Wednesday, the Health Department released a meeting notice about the study, but did not explain what residents would learn about its plans to conduct the study.
East Division Street resident James P. Barker, one of the residents who initiated the potential legal action, said he received an email Tuesday inviting him to the meeting.
He wondered whether the department was going to publicize the meeting, since that was the only contact he had received.
I dont know who it was sent out to or to how many, he said.
Health Department officials told residents in November they were considering a study after Carol J. Molinari, an Ogdensburg mother whose 17- and 13-year-old sons, Vincent J. and Dominic J., suffered from a rare skull deformity at birth, made a formal request that one be done.
On Wednesday, Mrs. Molinari said she has been invited to the meeting, but knew nothing more about it. She had not heard anything from the department since meeting with it last year until she received an email from a department official last week.
The department has agreed to conduct a Health Outcomes Review related to NY Air Brake. This meeting is being held to gather community input on possible study boundaries, health outcomes to be evaluated, and time frame of the study, the invitation sent to residents said.
The meeting will include a presentation and a chance for residents to ask questions. The department did not release any more information about the meeting.
Last year, the department told Mrs. Molinari a committee would determine whether the study was warranted.
North side residents and people who no longer live in the neighborhood have expressed concerns about levels of trichloroethylene, or TCE, found in the neighborhood over the years. TCE is a carcinogen and can cause nerve disorders. Many said they believe that contaminants were dumped in Kelsey and Oily creeks near the site.

The company developed an unsurpassed expertise in making high-impact resistant products that are reliable and easy to install.

The proper time to prepare yourself and your family is now, prior to the announcement of a pending named storm. A little time spent on preparation can yield great results should there be a need to put an emergency plan into action. Please take a few minutes to review this information today.
When weather conditions warrant, local officials will provide information to the public through the media.
You should have a plan to shelter in place, as well as have an evacuation plan should it become necessary. Remember that power failures are common long before wind speeds approach hurricane strength. A battery operated radio is an excellent way to keep informed about current conditions. Any evacuations should be completed well in advance of severe weather. The local Emergency Management agency will advertise shelter locations when they are designated and opened, however these are to be used as a last resort. You may be more comfortable staying with friends or family in a safe area not in the storm's path.
Prior to the storm:
Obtain non-perishable food items and bottled water. Have a battery operated radio and a flashlight. Keep a supply of extra batteries and a first aid kit. Trim trees and shrubs around your home. Identify a safe room in your home in case you are not asked to evacuate.
If a storm is pending:
Listen to media announcements. Have a pillow, bedding, personal hygiene items (toothbrush, soap, deodorant) ready to go in case of an evacuation order. Please remember to put garbage cans and outdoor furniture in a secure location. Fill your vehicle with gasoline, and keep a supply of cash on hand. Neither gas pumps nor automated teller machines will be functional during a power outage. Should there be a need, board up windows using plywood prior to arrival of the storm. Tape does not prevent glass from breaking. Do you have children? Remember that should you need to evacuate pack any special dietary needs or baby food, as well as a supply of diapers and toys. Is anyone in your family ill or disabled? If going to a shelter remember to bring all prescription and other medications; eyeglasses, hearing aids and prosthetic devices. Do you have pets? If you have to evacuate please arrange accommodations for your pet at a kennel. Animals will only be accepted at designated pet friendly shelters which may be a distance from your home. Bring a supply of pet food, along with proof of rabies vaccination and a labeled pet carrier. A favorite toy or blanket may help to alleviate stress on the animal.
At a minimum, have the basic supplies listed below. Keep supplies in an easy-to-carry emergency preparedness kit that you can use at home or take with you in case you must evacuate.
•Water—one gallon per person, per day (3-day supply for evacuation, 2-week supply for home)
• Food—non-perishable, easy-to-prepare items (3-day supply for evacuation, 2-week supply for home)
• Battery-powered or hand-crank radio (NOAAWeather Radio, if possible)
•Extra batteries
• First aid kit • Medications (7-day supply) and medical items
• Multipurpose tool
• Sanitation and personal hygiene items
• Copies of personal documents (medication list and pertinent medical information, proof of address, deed/lease to home, passports, birth certificates, insurance policies)
• Cell phone with chargers
• Family and emergency contact information
• Extra cash
• Emergency blanket
• Map(s) of the area
Consider the needs of all family members and add supplies to your kit. Suggested items to help meet
additional needs are:
• Medical supplies (hearing aids with extra batteries, glasses, contact lenses, syringes, cane)
• Baby supplies (bottles, formula, baby food, diapers)
• Games and activities for children
• Pet supplies (collar, leash, ID, food, carrier, bowl)
• Two-way radios
•Extra set of car keys and house keys
•Manual can opener
Please be safe and prepared this hurricane season!

Lennon: There is Definitely Interest in Beltran
The better play is to keep Beltran for the start of 2011.
The Mets will not get fair value for him now, because of his salary and knees. He's still a better option than most players the team could find to replace him. Plus, if he shows he is healthy, Beltran will be VERY attractive to teams in a playoff race, assuming the Mets are willing to move him July.
By the way, for the next 30 days, Newsday.com is out from behind their paywall.

MORRISTOWN A fire destroyed a summer trailer, garage and small fishing boat at 9 County Route 5 Sunday afternoon.
Hammond, Brier Hill and Morristown fire departments responded to a fully involved structure fire when the call came in at 12:40 from a neighbor across the street.
Heuvelton and Redwood fire departments were on standby.
St. Lawrence County Fire Investigator W. Joseph Lacks said no one was living at the trailer.
The owners of the home, Tom S. McHale and his wife Karen, from Rush, said the trailer was a summer home they used when their grandchildren came to visit. Theyve had it for seven years.
Everythings gone, Mr. McHale said. It was a total loss of everything.
Mr. Lacks also said that except for a few items crews were able to salvage from the garage, it was a total loss.
Mr. Lacks and another fire investigator, Richard B. Anson, from the Edwards Fire Department, determined that the fire started because of the failure of an electrical outlet in the rear bedroom the 14-by-70-foot trailer.
Mr. McHale told Mr. Lacks that all of the windows in the trailer had been left open because they had been cleaning it earlier that day.
Mr. Lacks said that since a window was right above the outlet, oxygen was coming in and feeding the fire.
Thats why we got a little bit of speed on here, Mr. Lacks said.
The whole back half was on fire when we got here, said Shawn R. Macaulay, fire chief for Brier Hill. Plus the garage and the boat were on fire too.
The crews were on the scene for about 90 minutes.
Mr. Lacks said the property was insured.

Online buying has really started to take off in the UK, as evidenced by Capgemini figures that reveal how online sales hit their highest growth this year, recording a huge 17% jump on July 2011 and a 9% increase month-on-month from June 2012. This equated to an estimated £6.5bn spent online (an average of £128 per person), a significant rise on the £5.8bn spent during July 2011. Total growth for the year to date stands at approximately 13%—in line with previous forecasts.
The advent of the multi-channel retailing era has led to increasingly complex interactions with customers. Now savvy shoppers can not just shop in stores, but also browse online, price check using a mobile device, place a 'click-and-collect' order or give customer feedback via Facebook. Multi-channel retailers are getting used to consumers doing their research online before appearing in the store to make the actual purchases or vice versa. In many cases, a sale may span several channels before it closes.
This places tremendous pressure on the retailer to support integrated, cross-channel selling. The value proposition for multi-channel sales is to capture the sale that would not occur otherwise because a customer no longer relies exclusively on shopping at a brick and mortar store.
In perhaps a more global context, as retailers move to multi-channel selling and grow to a broader geographic customer base, the natural tendency is to increase inventory levels close to the point of demand. Retailers often gravitate to opening regional distribution centres to minimise stock-outs and satisfy their geographically dispersed customers. They add new layers of software and inventory systems to deal with each new retail channel and track each channel through separate divisions and warehouse systems.
Controlling inventory, being ready to ship on-time and handling a diverse customer base are all far more difficult when using discrete systems for different retail channels. Depending on how resources have been allocated within the company, this can create unanticipated supply chain bottlenecks, resulting in late shipments and customer complaints or supply chain blind-spots where poor inventory visibility results in missed sales opportunities.
Just as customers have no patience for order delays or non-availability, shareholders have no patience for reduced inventory turns, increased inventory investment, and higher working capital costs. Because of these dynamics, the traditional, static way of fulfilling a customer's order out of the geographically closest warehouse is becoming outdated and traditional inventory systems, not up to the task of effectively and accurately supplying products through the mixed modes of modern retailing, are putting companies at a competitive disadvantage.
Today's retailers—as well as distributors and manufacturers—need to adapt to the new multi-channel retailing era or face being marginalised or bankrupted. To adapt they need to harness the power of inventory across their enterprise and involve suppliers and logistics partners in direct customer order fulfilment. They must strive to reduce costs across the supply chain without sacrificing order quality and on-time delivery.
Distributed Order Management to the rescue
The answer is to integrate supply chains for multiple retail channels to efficiently meet growing demand. This has been challenging despite promises of integration tools, standards and web services. Today, software solutions have matured significantly and have been deployed to help companies accomplish this by weaving the varied strands of their distribution systems into a cohesive, effective network. The promise is rapidly becoming reality as retailers, solution vendors, and the marketplace gain experience in deploying these solutions.
For example, Distributed Order Management solutions allow managers to combine existing inventory systems and coordinate multiple retail channels by sourcing products from warehouses throughout the world. Effective solutions provide system-wide inventory visibility, sourcing, allocation and delivery scheduling at each stage of the fulfilment process in real time. Using configurable rules, Distributed Order Management solutions can aggregate orders as they are placed, evaluate global inventory and then match demand to supply. An effective solution can provide precise understanding of product demand and backlog for all markets—not just single channels.
Distributed Order Management solutions build on traditional inventory systems such as Warehouse Management solutions that determine the fastest and most efficient ways of shipping a particular order whether they be 'singles' for web, mobile and call centre orders or bulk consignments for store orders.
Whilst Warehouse Management solutions enable companies to fulfil orders from a specific facility, Distributed Order Management allows companies to connect their Warehouse Management solution, which manages the supply side of the equation, to equally sophisticated instruments such as planning and replenishment solutions on the demand side. This allows companies to manage the diverse ways customers now have of ordering, while orchestrating higher service levels.
By using Distributed Order Management solutions, companies gain a global view of inventory and an equally broad view of the pathways their customers use. These solutions help companies recognise that not all customers are created equal, and that the end user has many choices about where to shop for a product and where to buy it.
Distributed Order Management solutions take into account the fact that different channels demand different levels of service. Some channels need product faster, while others are less time-sensitive. Failure to meet a "just in time" commitment has different consequences depending on how close it is to the final customer transaction.
Tightly focusing the supply chain on that final transaction should be the goal of every effective retail operation. Distributed Order Management solutions allow managers to do just that by optimising supply and demand without building yet another inventory system. When used effectively, Distributed Order Management solutions become the "nervous system" of the entire retail supply equation.
Ultimately, all customer channels—e-commerce, m-commerce, f-commerce, s-commerce and v-commerce plus and the more traditional channels of physical stores, catalogues and call centres—must be brought together into a fully integrated order and distribution loop through coordinated inventory management, instantaneous communication and rapid response to spikes in demand. While few companies can take on such a monumental project all at once, Distributed Order Management solutions offer a cost-effective alternative to gain most of the benefits full integration can achieve.
Order fulfilment execution will always be the gold standard by which successful companies are measured. Distributed Order Management can help them get there, and stay there—whatever new challenges come along.
Recommendations for Action
1. Cultural Re-Alignment
It is critical to understand that improved inventory management and fulfilment processes must be preceded by appropriate corporate cultural shifts. Before designing, buying, or implementing any Distributed Order Management system, ensure your organisation has been realigned to support overall brand prosperity, rather than the health of any one channel. Corporate incentives and measurements should be driven from brand, rather than channel, profitability.
Once the organisation has been brought together, a cross-channel, cross-functional team must be formed to select and shepherd the implementation of a Distributed Order Management System.
2. Next, Pilot a Subset of Products and Geographic Areas
The importance of pilot programmes as a means of fleshing out gaps in workflow, system parameters, or user expectations prior to full system rollout can never be over-stated. Select a narrow set of products across a narrow geographic area for the first 90 days of implementation and experimentation. If appropriate, let your customers and suppliers opt into this pilot programme, with the understanding that they will be receiving the benefits that have been discussed, such as greater fill rates or multi-channel order status visibility. An end-to-end coalition of the willing will be a key contributor to project success, and involving your customers will demonstrate the win-win results that Distributed Order Management promises.
3. Finally, Move to Full Rollout
With incentives and metrics in place, customers on board, and a successful 90-day pilot complete, it is time to move on to full rollout. Start with requests to product and logistics suppliers to participate in the new program. Brand the initiative to the customer base 90 days after full rollout, to be sure that all kinks have been worked out of business processes.

First I'd like to say "hi" I am a system developer with over 15 years in programming and I work in some pretty next gen environments so I was unhappy to learn just how little simple information this website has.
Let me be clear I have wasted a WHOLE morning trying to install a simple apache tomcat install and I litterally CANNOT do this because I cannot get centos to install. So I am leaving this OS behind. Here is why
My first impression is:
- There is currently NO documentation for version 6.2. This is weak. I eventually found a forum post saying it's the same as red hat 6 but it's still FAR too hard to find. just a stub link at a url that said *go here* would have been fine. The general upshot of this makes me wonder how it's maintained from a admin point of view. Sorry. But it does.
- I had ZERO idea of which one of about 30 download files I needed. a dump of a directory is NOT sufficient. there really is no harm in doing an index.html page with links and explanations on the mirror sites. Very bad form. But even if you have no choice the folder structure was awful. I pulled down the 32 bit liveCD.iso (because it was top most and the biggest iso) and assumed it would let me install fully (NO WRONG, it also SAYS NOTHING about not being a full install it just "runs" so it's very counter intuitive, I was expecting to ask me root/disk options and then blam it had installed.. oh wait it's KNOPPIX! Dohh! Grrrr what a waste of life!) so then I did the network.iso install verison and assumed it would let me pull down all the stuff via the web -- DRRRR wrong another waste of life it just refused pointblank to work so balls to that.. so then I download the 3rd minimal install.iso which I know I don't want I want a "full" install.
- but once the minimal.iso install downloads will it bollhooks let me upgrade the "minimal" install to include a desktop gui.. No it won't...
- no guides
- no how to's
- no idea where to go
- no help in documentation
- false positives everywhere (red herrings of paintime wasteage EVERYWHERE)
- why why why why why why whyy make it so hard? There is obviously ONE REAL CENT OS that is the daddy that is the one "everyone" is using.. I just couldn't find it... Is it my fault? No I gave it 4 hours so, no not really, why make a mess of everything. All it takes is a blurb about thing snot just some lame "CTRL-V that*is*the*mirror" site structure. Please please please try to make it easy for people who HAVEN'T used your OS before...
