zero.5. I think I'm afraid of sex.
It's terrifying that two people can fit together perfectly, without even really liking each other at all.
4. I'm afraid of the day I start replacing myself with somebody else in all of our pictures; of the day I'll see my reflection and wish I didn't have to.
3. I'm afraid of doctors, and medicine.
The first time I took lithium, I couldn't hold it down. So I locked the bathroom door and flushed the entire bottle.
The second time, I couldn't walk more than ten steps without falling.
Honestly, I'm just wondering why they use poison to purify me.
2. I'm afraid of the ocean.
I'm afraid of looking down one day, and not seeing the edges. Of there being nothing there.
I'm afraid of falling and having nothing to catch me.
There's already nobody. The ground is really all I have.
1. I'm afraid of breaking things.
Like, once, I broke my dad's trust in me.
Once I broke somebody's heart.

When you realized that everybody dies alone.
When you didn't take your eyeliner off one night, so in the morning
your eyes would look as hollow as you felt.
When you spent a year blacking out the sad endings in your books.
(When you wished that life could also work like that.)
When you learnt that "We need a break" means "I am going to break your heart."
When you fell in love with the stars, and the way he says "us."
When he told you, "More than just a long time."
The first time you hung up to the sound of your father laughing.
When you walked home from a party in January, and couldn't remember
if you were still breathing.
When you begged him to let you be sad, and he smiled and said, "No."
When you saw the irony of drawing trees on paper and how alive you've felt
after being sure you were dead.

I told my brother I was going to be a fairy when I grew up. Or a bird, or sprite something with wings so I could touch the clouds.
I learned that fairies weren't real when I was six, after I tried to jump off a parking structure to see if I could fly.
That day I also broke my leg in three places and saw an angel's face in the clouds. (And don't tell anybody, but sometimes I spend all day looking for him.)
My neighbors back in Denver had a son who was a schizophrenic. After he went off his meds for the third time, he painted the windows red and told his wife she had to abort their baby because it wasn't human.
A year later, I heard that he was arrested after pointing a hunting rifle on his family. It was loaded, but he didn't pull the trigger because his mother said she trusted him.
I guess love is kind of like that, too.

I still remember singing in my room when I was six, and having my mother come down the hall and slam the door so hard that the windows shook.
Her nails hurt when she scraped the tears off my face. "It doesn't matter what you want," she'd always tell me.
Like, when that drunk driver swerved and hit her car I didn't want her to leave me, and it didn't matter.
Once on vacation I bought a pair of fuzzy leather heels for two hundred dollars, and when I wore them to dinner, I found out that
1. "Suede" is a fancy word for "fuzzy leather."
And 2. Good things don't last: That night my cousin told me that she thought 135 pounds was a little too big for five foot eight. So I tore my tights up to the thigh and threw those new suede heels in the garbage.
It felt good later, to know that they couldn't hate me more than I hate myself.

The January before you turned twenty-one, you told me you were afraid to become an adult. "I don't want to be somebody a child will hate."

Respond to Review of Bolhoed
by GUEST
Review: We walked across town to find this place, which is located near the Anne Frank museum. The service was very poor. Dirty plates spread across each table were blatantly ignored by the waitress, even though the restaurant was empty. When I complained about this to another employee, she smiled with that stupid Dutch smile and said, "I'm not the waitress!". I was tempted to start collecting dishes myself and bring them to the kitchen. The menu was bland- Quiche and vegetable stuffed pastries. This is my mother's idea of vegetarian food. I expected more creativity. The food took 30 minutes to arrive. And all they had to do was re-heat the quiche and add a salad. It gets better... after that long wait, the quiche was cold in the middle! Please save yourself the pain-- eat at ANY regular restaurant in Amsterdam and order a veggie quiche. Avoid this restaurant until they improve the service and the food.

"This flu has really weakened him," said team manager Patrick Lefevere.
"For a rider like him it makes no sense to start at only 50 per cent of his form so we decided to let him rest."
Lefevere added that he expected Cavendish to return in 2-3 weeks.
"We're also going to rethink our programme. He'll probably be at the Tour of Turkey, the Giro and the Tour of California."
Cavendish has won the Grand Prix de l'Escaut three times in the past.

Announced late last month, the free Ubisoft game offer for those who own the Assassin's Creed Unity Season Pass or Gold Edition is now live.
Rockstar Games has stubbornly kept any possible plans to release Grand Theft Auto V to the PC platform close to its vest, but if history tells us anything, a Windows port is coming. Need more proof? Just direct your browser to some overseas online retailer pages where GTA V for PC is being flaunted for pre-order.
Any research firm that tallies game sales but neglects to include digital copies isn't really painting a full picture of the landscape. That's less of a problem these days than it was a few years ago, and to put the impact of digital sales into perspective, market research firm International Data Corporation (IDC) predicts digital PC and Mac game revenue will exceed $24 billion by 2017.
We don't normally take much time to gush about too many games here at Maximum PC, but there's one that just may enhance that sense of holiday cheer that's brewing inside you -- especially for fans of the retro 16-bit aesthetic. It's called Fa'el: Beyond the Gate, and it's am ambitious PC release from independent developer Miguel Angel Perez Martinez.
Gaming has long been a driving force on the PC, though sometimes it's easy to forget when companies put so much focus on dedicated consoles. Even Microsoft is guilty of turning its back on the PC gamer to some extent.
Back near the end of September we reported on zombie apocalypse sim State of Decay as it made its way to Steam via the Early Access Program. Now it's time for the game to graduate into the real world on November 5th, which means it's one step closer to an official release.
Valve today announced that its Steam digital distribution platform is experiencing tremendous growth and is now home to over 65 million accounts. Active accounts are up 30 percent during the trailing 12 months on Steam, which offers over 3,000 games and software titles.
Valve sent out an email to members of the press announcing its upcoming Steam Dev Days conference, a two-day event for video game professionals to satisfy their geek in a relaxed, off the record environment.
Oh Rockstar Games, why must you tease PC gamers by forcing them to watch their console brethren play Grand Theft Auto V on the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3, the only two platforms it's currently available for?
Authors of a new study claim that playing complex scenarios in StarCraft, a popular real-time strategy (RTS) game, can enhance cognitive flexibility. The reason the study focused on StarCraft specifically is because to be successful, the player must cope with simultaneous and rapidly evolving game situations and sub-situations occurring in real-time while managing funds, resources, and information about the opponent.
You could say that the next generation console wars began when Nintendo's Wii U launched a year ago. Fair enough, though Sony and Microsoft have yet to release their much anticipated consoles, the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One, respectively.
If you have the money and patience to wait until this holiday shopping season, you can score Sony's upcoming PlayStation 4 (PS4) console and rock some next-generation gaming into 2014 and beyond. Alternately, you could spend half as much on Sony's new flash-based 12GB PlayStation 3 (PS3) Slim system.
Rockstar Games has a habit of making PC gamers wait for ports of its popular Grand Theft Auto franchise, and given the publisher's lack of information regarding its upcoming Grand Theft Auto V (GTA V) release to Windows, we weren't really anticipating an exception. Until now, that is.

The restoration of a venerated 18th century statue of Christ in Mexico has revealed a somewhat creepy detail - the figure contains real human teeth, and the chompers appear to be in pristine condition. Researchers at Mexico's National Institute of Anthropology and History (INAH) said this week they made the discovery after performing X-rays on the Lord of Patience, as the figure is known, during a restoration operation. The fangs are only slightly visible through Christ's open lips, but anthropologists said X-rays showed the eight teeth are complete and intact, all the way to the root. The 3'8" tall icon - depicting a patient, pained Christ resting momentarily during the Passion - is usually seated in a church in San Bartolo Cuautlalpan, a town of 10,000 in the municipality of Zumpango, about 30 miles north of Mexico City. "It is common for statues to have teeth, but they are normally made of wood or carved individually out of bone," said Fanny Unikel, a Mexican art restorer, in statements made to INAH. "In this case, he has eight adult teeth. You can even see the roots." Unikel, from Mexico's National School of Conservation, Restoration and Museology, said the teeth were most likely donated out of gratitude, or as a way to get closer to the religious figure, adding that it is historically common for parishioners to donate clothes or their own hair to make wigs for saints, for example.
The Lord of Patience statue has been venerated in San Bartolo Cuautlalpan for centuries, although the exact date it was made or its authorship remain unknown. INAH dates it to the 18th century and the Colonial Era, when Mexico was referred as New Spain and the Catholic Church's missionary work - and its Inquisition - expanded northward to what is now the Southwest United States. Unikel said the Lord of Patience in the San Bartolo church is very well preserved. "The sculpture is always dressed," Unikel explained. "He only leaves the church during Holy Week, when he is paraded through the town." It is common throughout Mexico's rural communities to carry venerated figures through the streets on holidays, followed usually by a celebratory parade of townspeople in costumes, depictions of saints, and occasionally, heavily decorated animals. Some of the Lord of Patience's original green tinges on his skin, as well as blood-red hues, were discovered underneath a "modern beige retouching," and have now been recovered. Unikel does not believe, however, that the teeth belonged to a important religious figure from the period, but rather they were used because they were available. "The community really appreciates him, and this can be seen in the base of the sculpture, where there are different layers of multiple shades of paint," Unikel told INAH. "This shows that they wanted to present him with dignity."

This hotel is rather basic, dont expect mini bottles of shampoo or conditioner. The decor was tired. The staff were friendly. The location is great if you need to get to Gare Du Nord or Gare De L'est, both are close. The breakfast choices were very limited, the ham and cheese were OK, the espresso was very good. The wifi was weak. I would only consider this hotel again if the location was important enough, otherwise not. read hotel review

This is a money-saver if ever there was one ... a beautiful succulent, hen-'n-chicks. Talk about no muss, no fuss and let's hear it for no expense. When the hen has babies, you pinch them off and stick 'em wherever. This is one I squeezed into a space between two flat bluestones in a raised bed last summer. It's clearly thriving now. I think I'm going to rob the cradle some more ...
Hail, spring! What a kooky day we had yesterday. It had all the elements of this volatile season - cold in the morning, 70 degrees in the afternoon and then suddenly, black clouds and eerie yellow sky, thunder, lightning and hail that came down in buckets. I stood at the doorway with my mouth open. Just moments before I'd been thinking ... maybe ... dinner outside tonight. We were lucky in the city - the hail wasn't the size of golf balls, as was reported in Lancaster County, and while the wind was strong, it wasn't dangerous. It probably caused some havoc, of a milder variety. I spent a couple of hours yesterday afternoon picking up branches that'd fallen over the winter. As the winds blew, I thought there might be a few more out there now. Hail, spring or spring hail. Either way, more work!
This is the green wall at Dansko's less-than-a-year-old corporate HQ in West Grove, Chester County. It's a haul from Center City but what a cool place to work. The wall is 22 feet high, 20 feet across, in the 2 1/2-story atrium. It's planted with tropicals and incorporates this beautiful waterfall. The wall embodies some new technology that is just taking hold in this country. Called a biofilter wall, its plants absorb carbon dioxide, pollen and all sorts of bad stuff in the indoor air (toluene, formadehyde), filter it through soil-less roots and shoot it into the building's HVAC system. It ain't cheap, and it's unclear how much actual benefit employees derive as measured by cleaner air, but aesthetically it's a wonderful sight. And it makes for a very pleasant work space. Dansko has three green roofs and just about every amenity possible, including onsite child care and a very nice gym, to make going to work less stressful. (These days, I can only daydream about a workplace like that.) Watch for a story in the paper on Friday about green walls. There are lots of them - green walls, not stories, which is what made it so hard to do. You'll be surprised how easy some of them - not this one, obviously - are to put together. Even so, you might want to take a ride out to West Grove. Strictly business, of course, but while you're there, no harm in checking out the Dansko shoe outlet!
Can't see it too well, but this is a 'Jewel' raspberry cane, planted over the weekend in a large container. The folks who sold me more than a dozen canes of red, gold and black raspberries insist you can grow them just fine in containers but I'm skeptical. Definitely need to net them and plan to trellis them, too. Netting is the more important, given the expert gleaning skills of the birds in my neck of the woods. They strip the grape vines, blueberry bushes and fig tree clean.
I bought four varieties of raspberries - besides 'Jewel,' there's 'Killarney,' 'Fall Gold' and 'Heritage.' Nothing exotic; these are well-known, reliable producers, and these in particular are already two years old. So they should fruit this season. Everyone smiles when they hear I'm trying raspberries. Guess they have some associations, as I certainly do. We has a large, unruly raspberry patch when I was growing up. Birds used to dive-bomb us as we picked and I remember the dog getting pecked in the head. Mom remembers being scratched by brambles till her arms and legs bled. A little pruning might've helped but for some reason, that wasn't on the radar. Regardless. Just thinking of those berries, warmed by the sun and popped into your mouth, makes me hungry. They were wonderful for breakfast, for lunch, dinner and impromptu raids throughout the day. Just hope they can deal with life in a container in the middle of the city.
Say hi to Derek Fell, probably the best known garden guy in Pennsylvania you've never heard of. I visited Derek at his beautiful 18th-century farmhouse last week because he's the author of a book called "Cezanne's Garden." Thought it'd be neat, in light of the Cezanne and Beyond exhibit at the Philadelphia Museum of Art, to take a look at exactly what was in the Provencale garden that so inspired this famous post-impressionist. Derek's been to Cezanne's place about a half-dozen times. He's written a total of about 50 garden and horticulture books in addition to dozens of calendars and other horticulturally-themed items that he does the photos for, too. In short, the guy's C.V. is about the length of my garden. We had a fun chat about Cezanne, who I'd forgotten was a pretty strange fellow. Didn't liked to be touched. Was a diabetic who suffered from depression. Looked like a homeless guy. Slurped his coffee and ate peas off a knife. But he could paint. Be sure to pick up the paper on Friday. I've just seen the page design - it's beautiful. You'll get a true sense of what Cezanne's studio and garden looked like. Makes me want to hop a plane. And P.S., Derek and his wife Carolyn have 20 acres up in Pipersville, a part of Bucks County that hasn't been wrecked yet. They open their gardens to the public for free on Mother's Day and Father's Day weekends. It's worth a drive up there - took me 90 minutes from Center City. They've designed parts of their garden to look like the gardens of the artists Derek's written about ... not just Cezanne, but Renoir, Monet and van Gogh, too. Can't wait for a return trip.
What did we do before digital cameras? I know. We had shelves full of photo albums to keep us sentimental and drawers full of uncatalogued photos to rummage through. On the other hand, we didn't have the chance to see our handiwork immediately, delete if it we don't like it, and try again. This picture was right on the first try. I didn't plan it this way. I was just walking the path down by the pond at the Schuylkill Center for Environmental Education, a favorite hiking spot on weekends. Take a look. Can't paint worth a lick, but doesn't this photo showcase my inner Monet? It lacks a few details - water lilies, Japanese bridge, over-the-top garden - but it does have that liquid, dreamy quality of Monet's water lily series, don't you think? I flatter myself. That's Digital World for you.
What does this look like to you? Giant eyeballs, maybe? We came upon this scene over the weekend, in the woods at the Schuylkill Center for Environmental Education in upper Roxborough. What the heck?! Very intriguing. Julia Molloy came over to chat, explaining that they were building a "semi-sustainable structure" called Bird/Seed Shelter as part of the center's "Gimme Shelter" competition. The idea is to build awareness of the meaning of "sustainability," a word that's tossed around a lot these days, and how it affects our lives and connection to the natural world. It's supposed to be inspiring, educational and fun. Let's hear it for fun!
The center received about 80 designs from 60 teams around the world, most from the U.S. but also Portugal, Spain and Korea, according to Zoe Cohen, manager of the center's art program. Six finalists, who get $5,500 each, are building their woodland creations now. They're supposed to be big enough for four people to sleep overnight in sleeping bags and last about a year. After looking at the website (www.schuylkillcenter.org/gimmeshelter), I think this is my favorite - three spheres will be covered in concrete, overlaid with soil, planted with native plants and embedded with bird seed. Birds are so much a part of the Schuylkill Center experience - check out the bird blind - that this design, a bird-, plant- and people-friendly shelter inside a hill of earth, seems especially tailored for this beautiful spot.
Julia, whose team is from Brooklyn, pronounced it "very cool." Zoe said it was "very cool." I think it's "very cool!" It's unanimous. Gimme Shelter is part of the center's environmental art program and is its most ambitious undertaking to date. Major funder is the William Penn Foundation, complemented by Habitat for Humanity volunteers and in-kind donations from other sources. Opening day is Saturday, May 9, from 2-5 p.m. but you have a year or so to stop by.
This morning was one of those times - and I have many - when I feel so lucky to do what I do for a living. I was over at the Philadelphia Museum of Art to take a look at some of the Cezanne paintings in the "Cezanne and Beyond" exhibit, which runs till May 17. I'm working on a fascinating story about the role Cezanne's gardens in Provence played in his art, and I wanted to see certain paintings before I start writing. The museum staff allowed me to go in before the place officially opened, and for about 45 minutes I was pretty much alone with this fabulous collection of the works of Cezanne and 18 other artists who were profoundly influenced by him. Seven security guards were visible from every vantage point, so I wasn't really alone, but it felt that way. Soon two groups came in for tours but they were quiet. Word to the wise: the museum's new 400-car, set-into-the-hillside, underground parking garage is open for business but isn't yet properly signed. There's no indication that "T" stands for Terrace, which is the level at which you enter the museum. I can imagine elevators full of people going up and down trying to figure it out. (This is a view of the unfinished "roof" of the garage, which will be landscaped this spring.) Parking is $10 for four hours but if you're a member of the museum, it's only $8. Yet another reason (besides free admission and tickets to special exhibits, which in this case are $22) to join. If you don't get your ticket validated, you get zinged for $26 and if you stay longer than four hours, you pay $2/hour from then on. Next time, I may look elsewhere for a spot.

FUEL: REFUELED is an enhancement modification for the game FUEL, which brings multiple bug-fixes, improvements and the addition of various new content.
I thought this one would be difficult to demonstrate, so I ran the game in windowed mode and included part of my desktop as well. If someone were to play about with a macro and some screen capturing software then I'm sure this would be put to great use.

Add the 1.6X Tele-Converter to the front of your HDR-FX1 lens to shift its focal range in the telephoto direction. The perfect tool when it's inconvenient, dangerous, or even impossible to move as close to the subject as you'd like. The 1.6X Tele-Converter alters your zoom's focal length range - with no appreciable light loss. Note vignetting occurs when zoomed to the wider angles.
The Tele-Converter is specially effective in "run-and-gun" shooting situations because it attaches quickly to the front of the existing lens.

I would think about buying the CD only 'corse of this back cover. Wonderful work
i LOVE this
i must admit i love pieces which include faces, we all love human beauty, but knowing im not an important critic or anything like that i'd love to say im so happy for finding this, because it is the first time a piece really gets me without having an obvious human expression in it! hope this made a little sense, beautiful work!!
Congrats on the DD, sir. You deserve it all the way!
I hate it but I love it!
This is amazing, really well done!
That's creepy
Oh wow! I really, REALLY like this! It is eerie and vaguely disturbing, yet incredibly beautiful at the same time. I could have a field day with all the symbolism I could get out of this. :3 Wonderfully done!
wow, this is awesome!
beautiful design congratulations on the DD!
I love how you can see the veins in the hand and the lighting. lighting The way the sand is slipping out of the hand gives you a sense of nature slipping away or being destroyed. It gives you hope too. too I also like how the hand looks worn and old. It looks amazing!
This is bloody beautiful!
Wow, now that's interesting. I was just looking at something else on Google+ and commented that it looked lol an album cover. Then, I see this piece on here. Brilliant connecting moments. Love this cover. If everything goes well, I'll definitely be asking for your "assistance."
Fav'd, as you should know.
Fav'd, as you should know.
Groovy, thanks man
Thank you for the posting of it. My apology for the original comment. It was supposed to be "looked like" not "looked lol". I love the weirdness of this device I use, sometimes. Sorry for that error.
Sensational work of art
Congratulations on your DD Feature
Congratulations on your DD Feature
That's really awkward but awesome the same time!

Love has a nasty streak
Rivals.com Basketball Recruiting Staff
Rivals.com Rankings
Rivals150 for 2007: No. 7 overall
2007 centers: No. 1
Kevin Love's basketball checklist has one major omission � an NCAA National Championship. He has to wait nearly two years to accomplish that, because he is only a high school senior. And a mighty fine one at that.
The 6-foot-9, 240-pound center from Lake Oswego (Ore.) High School has done everything he can possibly do at the prep level.
Love has a state championship. He has been named Oregon's state player of the year. He helped win the Kingwood Classic - twice. His team won the Reebok Big Time. And the Tournament of Champions. And the Las Vegas Easter Classic. The list goes on.
Love and his Southern California All-Stars owned the AAU circuit. When together, the team compiled a 47-0 record. Love was named MVP of the ABCD camp twice.
"You couldn't have a better anchor on a summer basketball team," Rivals.com National Basketball Recruiting Analyst Jerry Meyer says.
Love has grabbed more than 30 rebounds in a game at the City of Palms, one of the best high school tournaments in the country. He has scored more than 50 points in a game. He has made some of the most memorable outlet passes in high school history. Game winning shots? Love has plenty of those, too.
"He has a strong competitive will and makes the simple play exceptionally well," Meyer said.
The accolades go on and on.
He has done everything he can possibly do at the high school and AAU level. Now he is entering Michael Jordan territory. Love is looking for repeats in his last year in the world of teenagers. He wants another state title. He'll probably score over 50 points in a game again. Mr. Basketball in Oregon? It will be a tight race between him and good friend Kyle Singler.
Meyer said he hasn't seen a player that can do the things that Love does inside the paint.
"When it comes to how fundamentally advanced Love's game is, you have to throw out the concept of age," Meyer said. "What big man playing ball today has as sound a game as Love? Tim Duncan and then who?"
Unlike Duncan, Love has a nastiness to his game that players on his team rely on and opponents dread. That sounds a lot like a former NBA great, according to Meyer.
"Love will have to have a Bill Laimbeer approach to his game when he gets to the NBA if he wants to max out as a player," he said. "Physical intimidation goes a long way in making up for insufficiencies athletically.
The challenge ahead at UCLA goes far beyond anything he has faced at the high school level. Stanford has the Lopez twins to battle down low. Washington could have Spencer Hawes in Seattle as a sophomore. You never know, O.J. Mayo may be a USC Trojan next year, too.
Put the roadblocks and players in his way. Love likes the challenge. It hasn't stopped him during his brilliant prep career.
Rivals.com is unveiling its preseason Elite Team for the Class of 2007. Comprised of the nation's top high school basketball stars, the Elite Team is broken down into position-specific first, second and third teams. These stars will soon be signing with the top college basketball programs en route to the NBA. We will announce one player each weekday from Oct. 2-20.

OXM UK reports that some of Bungie's developers weren't sure that matchmaking was the right direction for online play.
I remember matchmaking, when we rolled that out with Halo 2 it was such a big risk," Brian Jarrard, Bungie's PR and Community Director, tells OXM. "We walked away from the established norm, there were no server lists - we turned the whole thing upside down and it was a big leap of faith."

About meEdit
Hi! My name's Jack, but I go by Bubblecamera here on the wiki. (It's a long story.)
I'm interested in all areas of Doctor Who! My main specialty here on the wiki is the audios (and small grammar fixes), but I'm also well-versed in knowledge of the TV series and the DWM comic strip. I'm also collecting the EDA novels and the NSAs as a side project, but they're not a main focus.
When I'm not logged in, I go by the name of 220.127.116.11.
I also completely admit to being a hopeless fanfic-writer. (But don't worry, I won't plaster my creations all over the site.)

The Packers fans have apparently stuffed the ballot box, and as a result Brett Favre is leading Warner by 116,000 votes. Faulk is leading Ahman Green by just 11, 000 votes.
That's not the worst of it though, as those two are real pro bowlers.
But look at these stats
The Packers fullback is second
The Packers WR are 7th and 9th
The Packers Center is first
The Packers tight end is second ( though he is a pro bowler too)
The Packers guards are 4th and 5th
The Packers tackles are 2nd and 5th
The Packers DE are 2nd and 5th
The Packers DT are. 3rd and 5th
The Packers OLB are 2nd and 6th
The Packers MLB is 5th
The Packers FS is 1st
The Packers corners are 7th and 10th and an ex Packer- Doug Evans is 1st
The Packers Corey Bradford is #1 in Special teams player
The Packers Kicker is #4
The Packers kick returner is 4th
The Packers punter is 3rd
Now look at where the Rams players, #1 in both offense and defense in the NFC are.
Warner 2nd
Faulk 1st
Bruce 2nd
Holt 8th (behind Bill Schroeder)
Conwell 5th
McCollum 7th
Timmerman 2nd
Nutten 8th
Pace- 1st
Tucker Not in top 10

My gravy tastes way too salty. Is there a way to tone it down?
My gravy tastes way too salty. Is there a way to tone it down?
To reduce that salty taste, chop up a small potato and stir it into the gravy. Continue to stir and simmer the gravy for about 15 minutes, then remove the potato pieces. The potato will absorb the excess salt. Taste before serving—add a wee bit of water if the gravy has become too thick during the extra cooking time or if you think the gravy is still a bit too salty.

Expiration Date
The length of time for the expiration date or "best used before" date depends on the type of product, as well as the brand.
Perishable items (such as flax oils or certain probiotics) generally have shorter expiration dates. Although our warehouse is fully air-conditioned, these more fragile items are put in cold storage (freezer or refrigeration unit) for maximum freshness.
Our receiving department does its best to verify and then enter the correct expiration dates for all incoming products. However, discrepancies do occur from time to time. This being said, the exceptionally high turnover at iHerb ensures that our inventory is among the freshest in the industry.
Shipping Weight:?0.29 lbs (0.13 kg)
Shipping Weight
The Shipping Weight includes the product, protective packaging material and the actual shipping box. In addition, the Shipping Weight may be adjusted for the Dimensional Weight (e.g. length, width & height) of a package. It is important to note that certain types of products (e.g. glass containers, liquids, fragile, refrigerated or ice packed) will often require protective packaging material. As such, these products will reflect a higher Shipping Weight compared to the unprotected product.

These little finger foods are packed with organic fruits and veggies but taste great! My toddler and 4 year old love these! We keep them in our diaper bag for a quick snack on the run. When we pull these out at the playground they don't last long and other Moms/kids are eager to try and find out where to buy!

So – it's that time of year again.
Last week, we attended the Whisky Magazine World Whiskies Awards (and Icons of Whisky), and came away with a slew of trophies and awards to show for another year's hard work.
First things first – we're absolutely delighted to announce that we've retained our crown as 'World's Best Online Whisky Retailer' for the third year on the trot. An absolutely fabulous achievement which we're immensely proud of. We've said this before (and will keep on shouting it from the rooftops) but our site remains the only purpose-built online whisky shop coded from the ground up. It took an extraordinary amount of effort to build something that wasn't based on a standard e-commerce platform, and we're all hugely proud of the software stack we've built.

Considering that the Knockdhu distillery was founded over 100 years ago in a land brimming with peat, they've certainly taken their sweet time bringing out some peated whisky in the shape of the anCnoc Peaty collection. What have they been doing with all that peat all this time? Hoarding it in case Islay ever runs out? Using it to run some very slow trains? Dirt clod fights?
In actual fact, back in 1894 when Mr. John Morrison and his cohorts first started producing whisky at the Knockdhu distillery up near Aberdeen, a location chosen for its proximity to the Great North Railway line and the abundance of barley, peat and springs of Highland water, the malted barley was indeed dried using peat-fired kilns. They were making peated whisky all the way back in the 1800s!

This week we're re-visiting a recipe for the first time on #MasterofCocktails – The Martinez.
The reason we're doing this is that the first recipe published way back in October was the distinctly modern version. Heavy on the gin, and light on Vermouth. Today we're going back to the old-school, with a 1:1 Gin:Vermouth recipe.

On 16th March five top London bartenders faced off in a fantastic cask-aged gin cocktail competition, which may also have been the best named event of all time!
Maverick Drinks had armed each bartender with a different gin that had been aged or rested in casks, all from their awesome portfolio. Following a preview tasting where this fascinating crossover category was discussed, it was time for the #ginsin main event held at Megaro Bar. The winner would be chosen by 7 'tasters' (they're the fun version of judges) and would subsequently win the opportunity to create their very own cask-aged gin, which will have their name and even their face on it if they really want. (The latter, it was said at the time, may actually depend on who wins...) There should also soon be a Gin, Sin & 5 Soaking Barrels Tasting Set from Drinks by the Dram we hear, so you'll be able to sample all of these eminently mixable aged gins for yourself...

So it seems there was a Caption Competition announced a couple days ago and we need to declare some winners. I was out of the office on the day it was announced, so imagine my surprise when I returned to find a picture of me training for my upcoming Broadway show CATS (in Ireland) had been used for the competition! I knew I should never have become friends with Jake on Facebook.
Nevertheless, we received a bunch of entries and (using a very scientific method which definitely was not just us chuckling away at our desks) decided on whom shall be receiving each of the three Drinks by the Dram Irish Whiskey Tasting Sets for St. Patrick's Day!

This week we're making a nice potent, wintry drink for #MasterofCocktails to accompany all the unseasonably warm weather we've been enjoying. D'oh!
Don't worry about that though, we're making a Boulevardier. You'll notice, ingredients-wise, that it's basically a Negroni made with whiskey instead of gin. It appeared in Harry McElhone's Barflies and Cocktails right back in 1927 after the New Yorker set up his bar in Paris and it's just an absolutely superb drink.

If you google "meme generator" there are plenty of sites that'll do the technical bit for you, so you don't have to be a whizz on Photoshop or anything, just a whizz at captioning things!
Enter by 3pm on Friday 14th March to be in with a chance of winning, then we'll select our 3 favourites to each win a set. So, all you have to do now is decide what Sam's been getting up to lately. Over to you...

You put the lime in the Ballantine's, you drink 'em both together, Put the lime in the Ballantine's, then you feel better, Put the lime in the Ballantine's, drink 'em both up, Put the lime in the Ballantine's, and call me in the morning…
Flavoured whisky, eh? Obviously not that though. What I should say, of course, is flavoured whisky liqueurs and whisky-based spirit drinks, eh? This one's a little different to many, however. First of all, it's not honey flavoured (or even cherry flavoured). Secondly, it's essentially made by actually steeping lime peel in Scotch whisky, in the cask.

This week's #MasterofCocktails is an absolute doosie. We're making a Mai Tai. Probably one of the most abused and under-appreciated drinks in the world.
Now, if you've ever ordered one of these in a bar, you'll either have had a delicious variant on a Daiquiri, or a juice-laden mess that bears as much resemblance to a proper cocktail as a bottle of Hooch and an apple schnapps chaser.
Can you guess which version we're going to be making?

Well. This is sort of a big deal, isn't it?
I can probably count on the fingers of one hand the number of whiskies ever released that are over 60 years of age, and it's absolutely unthinkable these days that a 60yo distillery release would ever see the light of day at anything less than a five-figure price tag. Yet here we are bringing this astonishing piece of liquid history to you for a three-figure sum*.
Well rather than re-iterate, I'll refer you to my explanation of the economics behind this, here: https://www.masterofmalt.com/Blog/post/Brand-New-30-40-and-50-Year-Old-Whisky.aspx. Do please read it, as every bit of it still rings true, and it's the reason behind our ability to continue to deliver exceptional, unbelievably well-aged whiskies at price-points an order of magnitude less than some other folk.
