Rated 2 out of 5 by djonesb from Look good but feel wimpy This towel bar looks good but feels wimpy. The center bar is extremely light weight. We put it in our guest bat and hope that it holds up because returning was such an issue.

The Colorado mountains are always worth climbing, even if it's done from the comfort of a railcar. Hit the tracks this season for great views and an unforgettable journey, as well as historical insight into what the West once was.
Georgetown Loop Railroad
Tom Hill, vice president of facilities and marketing for Historic Rail Adventures, operators of the Georgetown Loop Railroad, said rail sites offer a look into classic Colorado history of railroading and mining.
The Georgetown Loop was completed in 1884, during Colorado's silver-mining boom. Georgetown was known for a short time as the "Silver Queen of Colorado," and the railroad was built to transport the area's rich commodities.
Although silver and gold mining went through many of their own highs and lows, the railroad industry suffered a significant decline with the emergence of the automobile in the 1920s. In 1938, the line from Idaho Springs to Silver Plume was abandoned and the Georgetown Loop was dismantled, ending the days of the railroad loop until its resurgence began in 1975.
The Georgetown to Silver Plume tracks are historic by nature, with classic cars and seats that have been enjoyed since Historic Colorado reopened the Georgetown Loop four decades ago for touring operation. Yet Hill said the modern rides conduct a whole new level of engagement.
"Besides the historical aspects, we have expanded into the realm of entertainment," Hill said. "The Georgetown Loop Railroad is really trying to appeal to a wider spectrum of people — those who may be looking for a fun day trip or night out, as well as a dose of history."
New this year on the Loop are private trains, where guests can bring friends and family aboard their own train with their own conductor — perfect for parties and celebrations.
"Locals and visitors alike have extended families who come to the railroad from all over the country and have a get-together," Hill said. "The train offers a venue for education, entertainment and fun."
The Georgetown Loop offers "Moonlight in Mountains" dinner trains with meal themes of steak and lobster, rib eye or trout, as well as wine and beer tastings. In the fall, kids can enjoy the pumpkin festival and adults will savor Oktoberfest with free beer and brats.
Leadville Colorado
& Southern Railroad
Colorado offers a widespread history, so you may want to venture to the heights of Leadville to experience the elevation for yourself.
"The train out of Leadville is a great way to get up into the mountains for people of all ages," said Kirstin Ayers, Leadville Colorado & Southern Railroad director of sales and marketing. "Everyone from 3-month-old kids to 92-year-old grandmas are welcome aboard, so everyone is able to see the mountains without necessarily having to hike the mountains."
The rail line out of Leadville was constructed in Denver in 1874, and the track finally reached Leadville in 1884. At that time, it was owned by the Denver, South Park & Pacific Railway, and they carried freight back and forth from Leadville to Denver, from the Climax Molybdenum Mine and carried passengers back and forth.
The last passenger train was in 1937, and then the route was solely for transporting molybdenum, a metallic trace element. The Leadville train depot was built in 1893 and is still used today; in 1988, Ken and Stephanie Olsen purchased the railroad for $10, making this the 25th anniversary of the up-and-running Colorado & Southern. The train is open from late spring until the first week in October every year and hosts special train trips throughout the season, including wildflower tours, fall photo specials and a Sunday morning "Trip to the Top."
Ayers said the railroad is a great way to have a relaxing trip through the area. She said the onboard conductor will share history of the area throughout the trip, as well as stories of Leadville's more "colorful characters," such as Molly Brown and Baby Doe Tabor.
"It's a relaxing trip, and people can enjoy it at their own pace and see a lot of wilderness during the fun adventures. Right now, we are in the midst of wildflower tours," Ayers said. "The wildflowers up here are beautiful this year with the all the rain we had, and there are so many kinds that are out."
Be sure to check out the packaged tours, which include rafting and zip-lining trips along with your railway adventure.
"Besides the historical aspects, we have expanded into the realm of entertainment," Hill said. "The Georgetown Loop Railroad is really trying to appeal to a wider spectrum of people — those who may be looking for a fun day trip or night out, as well as a dose of history."

About the Book
In Pittacus Lore's The Rise of Nine, third in the New York Times bestselling I Am Number Four series, the stakes are higher than ever as John, Six, and Seven try desperately to find the rest of the Garde before it's too late.
The Mogadorians who destroyed the planet Lorien continue to hunt down the Garde, the small group of Loric survivors who have taken refuge on Earth. The Garde must come together. They are Lorien and Earth's only hope.
During the dangerous mission at the Mogadorian base in West Virginia, John found and rescued Nine. But even with their combined powers, special abilities known as Legacies, the pair barely escaped with their lives—and they lost Sam in the process.
In order to save our world and their own, John and Nine must join forces with Six and Seven who have been battling the Mogadorians in Spain, and who are now trying to locate Number Eight in India.
Power in numbers will save us all.
Until the day I met John Smith, Number Four, I'd been on the run alone, hiding and fighting to stay alive.
Together, we are much more powerful. But it could only last so long before we had to separate to find the others. . . .
I went to Spain to find Seven, and I found even more, including a tenth member of the Garde who escaped from Lorien alive. Ella is younger than the rest of us, but just as brave. Now we're looking for the others—including John.
But so are they.
They caught Number One in Malaysia.
Number Two in England.
And Number Three in Kenya.
They caught me in New York—but I escaped.
I am Number Six.
They want to finish what they started.
But they'll have to fight us first.

Sweet Onion Potato Salad
Anyway, the folks at Barhyte Specialty Foods were kind enough to send me an entire package of their Saucy Mama sauces and condiments and invited me to enter into their recipe competition. Personally, I was elated just to get the free products, but when I sat down and really put my mind to it, I thought that maybe I could come up with something that would at least earn honorable mention, or maybe they have a boobie prize for the most ridiculous recipe. I'm post-menopausal and suddenly I think I have a place in the recipe world! (Julia Child would so be hugging me right now if she were still alive.)
Here's where you, my readers, get to profit from the adventure. Simply leave a comment and you'll be entered into a giveaway for this bottle of Saucy Mama Cracked Pepper Marinade. (US and Canadian residents only)
And if I win the competition, I promise to donate the winnings to my favorite charity, Gleaner's Food Bank. I might even donate my junior high pom-poms to Good Will, but I can't promise that one right now because of attachment issues. (I still sleep with them at night)
I decided to use the Saucy Mama Sweet Onion Marinade in a potato salad recipe.
I was particularly pleased with the results because I consider myself a potato salad snob and I was proud of myself for stepping outside of my potato salad comfort zone. The sweet onion flavor of this marinade really makes a delicious and different potato salad.
Sweet Onion Potato Salad (serves 12)
4 pounds red-skinned potatoes, peeled and diced into 1/2 inch cubes
1 red bell pepper, seeded, diced
2 stalks celery, diced
1/2 cup Saucy Mama Sweet Onion Marinade
1 1/2 cups reduced-fat mayonnaise
1 1/2 TBSP Dijon mustard
1 TBSP sugar
1 1/2 tsp dried tarragon
1 tsp kosher salt
1/2 tsp black pepper
1/4 cup fresh parsley, chopped
8 slices of bacon, cooked crisp then crumbled
Place potatoes into a large pot. Cover with cold water. Bring water to a boil, season water generously with salt, reduce heat to medium, and simmer for 15-18 minutes, or until potatoes are fork tender. Drain and let cool.
In a small bowl whisk together the onion marinade, mayonnaise, mustard, sugar, tarragon, salt and pepper.
Place cooled potatoes into a large bowl. Add the diced bell pepper, celery and parsley. Pour dressing over all and stir to combine well. Refrigerate for at least two hours. Garnish with crumbled bacon before serving.
*Don't forget to leave a comment. You have until midnight on Monday, Sept.13th and I'll announce the winner on Tuesday, Sept. 14th.

I'd be scared to mess with Mom's potato salad recipe. She'll rise from the grave if I change it, so can I call it something else? Really, I love the name of this marinade, and I'd sure love to try some, but messin' with the potato salad might just going too far. I admire your bravery, though,and I greatly admire your blog!

Look for the Harvest Moon to shine on the night of September 27-28, 2015. And it's not just any Harvest Moon. It's also a supermoon that's staging a Blood Moon eclipse. Follow the links below to learn more.
What makes this moon a supermoon?
Which night is the super Harvest Moon for me?
Can I look for the Harvest Moon on other nights?
What makes a Harvest Moon special?
Is the Harvest Moon bigger, or brighter or more colorful?
Minor lunar standstill lessens impact of 2015 Harvest Moon
How did the Harvest Moon get its name?
When is the Southern Hemisphere's Harvest Moon?
What are some other full moon names?
EarthSky's 2016 lunar calendars are almost here!
What is a Harvest Moon? In traditional skylore, the Harvest Moon is the full moon closest to the autumnal equinox, and depending on the year, the Harvest Moon can come anywhere from two weeks before to two weeks after the autumnal equinox. For us in the Northern Hemisphere, the 2015 autumnal equinox comes on September 23, so the September 27-28 full moon counts as the Northern Hemisphere's Harvest Moon.
By the way, this year's Harvest Moon will present the closest and largest full moon of the year. It'll also stage a total eclipse of the moon on the night of September 27-28.
However, the Harvest Moon isn't always the biggest full moon of the year or more pumpkin-colored than other full moons. It's special because, at this time of year in the Northern Hemisphere, the time between successive moonrises – from one night to the next – is shorter than usual. But this year, 2015, the Harvest Moon is a bit bigger than usual … because it's a supermoon.
What makes this moon a supermoon? This year's Harvest Moon qualifies as a supermoon because the moon turns full about one hour after reaching lunar perigee – the moon's closest point to Earth for the month. Read more about the 2015 supermoons here.
Will you notice the extra-large size of this full September Harvest Moon using just your eye? Maybe.
Here's what you can notice, if you live on a coastline. Watch for this full moon to bring along wide-ranging spring tides along ocean coastlines for several days following full moon. That is, high tides will climb extra high and the low tides will fall exceptionally low.
Which night is the 2015 Harvest Moon for me? The full Harvest Moon for 2015 falls on September 27 or September 28, depending on your location on the globe. It happens on September 28 at 2:51 Universal Time. In North America, the crest of the moon's full phase comes on September 27, at 10:51 p.m. EDT, 9:51 p.m CDT, 8:51 p.m. MDT or 7:51 p.m. PDT.
So the night of September 27 has the brightest, fullest moon for the Americas. Meanwhile, in the world's eastern hemisphere – Africa, Europe and Asia, the full moon comes after midnight September 28. The Mid-Autumn Festival in Asia, is linked to this full moon.
No matter where you are on Earth, a brilliant full-looking moon ascends over your eastern horizon around the time of sunset on September 27. It climbs highest in the sky around the middle of the night, when the sun is below your feet. That's because the moon lies opposite the sun in our sky at the vicinity of full moon. Being opposite the sun, the moon is showing us its fully lighted hemisphere, or "day" side. That's what makes the moon look full.
Can I look for the Harvest Moon on other nights? Yes. No reason to limit the Harvest Moon fun to the nights of September 27-28. At middle and northerly latitudes in the Northern hemisphere, look for the moon to come up at dusk or nightfall for a few nights in succession. This procession of moonlit nights is what characterizes the Harvest Moon.
Want to know the time of moonrise in your location? My favorite source of that information is this Custom Sunrise Sunset Calendar. Once you get to that page, be sure to click the box for 'moon phases' and 'moonrise and moonset times.'
What makes a Harvest Moon special? Harvest Moon is just a name. It's the name for the full moon nearest the autumnal equinox. In the Northern Hemisphere, the Harvest Moon most often falls in September but sometimes falls in early October. But the Harvest Moon is more. Nature is particularly cooperative around the time of the autumn equinox to make the full moonrises unique around this time.
Here's what happens. On average, the moon rises about 50 minutes later each day. But when a full moon happens close to the autumnal equinox, the moon (at mid-temperate latitudes) rises only about 30 to 35 minutes later daily for several days before and after the full Harvest moon. Why? The reason is that the ecliptic – or the moon's orbital path – makes a narrow angle with the evening horizon around the time of the autumn equinox. The narrow angle of the ecliptic results in a shorter-than-usual rising time between successive moonrises around the full Harvest Moon.
These early evening moonrises are what make every Harvest Moon special. Every full moon rises around sunset. After the full Harvest Moon, you'll see the moon ascending in the east relatively soon after sunset for a few days in a row at northerly latitudes. The lag time between successive moonrises shrinks to a yearly minimum, as described in the paragraph above. Because of this, it seems as if there are several full moons – for a few nights in a row – around the time of the Harvest Moon.
Is the Harvest Moon bigger, or brighter or more colorful? Not necessarily, although this year's Harvest moon counts as the most "super" supermoon of the year.
In any year, the Harvest Moon is celebrated for featuring the year's grandest procession of moonlit nights. And, although in most years Harvest Moons aren't necessarily bigger or brighter or more colorful than other full moon, you might think they are. Why?
It's true that, in some months, the full moon is closer to us in orbit than others and so truly appears bigger. That's the case in 2015. But the distance of the full moon depends on where the moon is in its orbit. There's no correlation between each year's Harvest Moon and the moon's location in orbit (the actual full moon size). It's different every year.
Still, in any year, you might think the Harvest Moon looks bigger or brighter or more orange. That's because the Harvest Moon has such a powerful mystique. Many people look for it shortly after sunset around the time of full moon. After sunset around any full moon, the moon will always be near the horizon. It'll just have risen. It's the location of the moon near the horizon that causes the Harvest Moon – or any full moon – to look big and orange in color.
The orange color of a moon near the horizon is a true physical effect. It stems from the fact that – when you look toward the horizon – you are looking through a greater thickness of Earth's atmosphere than when you gaze up and overhead. The atmosphere scatters blue light – that's why the sky looks blue. The greater thickness of atmosphere in the direction of a horizon scatters blue light most effectively, but it lets red light pass through to your eyes. So a moon near the horizon takes on a yellow or orange or reddish hue.
The bigger-than-usual size of a moon seen near the horizon is something else entirely. It's a trick that your eyes are playing – an illusion – called the Moon Illusion. You can find lengthy explanations of the Moon Illusion by googling those words yourself.
How did the Harvest Moon get its name? Why is this moon – the moon closest to the autumnal equinox – called the Harvest Moon?
The shorter-than-usual time between moonrises around the full Harvest Moon means no long period of darkness between sunset and moonrise for days in succession. In the days before tractor lights, the lamp of the Harvest Moon helped farmers to gather their crops, despite the diminishing daylight hours. As the sun's light faded in the west, the moon would soon rise in the east to illuminate the fields throughout the night.
Who named the Harvest Moon? That name probably sprang to the lips of farmers throughout the Northern Hemisphere, on autumn evenings, as the Harvest Moon aided in bringing in the crops. The name was popularized in the early 20th century by the song below.
Shine On Harvest Moon
By Nora Bayes and Jack Norworth (1903)
Shine on, shine on harvest moon
Up in the sky,
I ain't had no lovin'
Since January, February, June or July
Snow time ain't no time to stay
Outdoors and spoon,
So shine on, shine on harvest moon,
For me and my gal.
And don't miss this more recent version of the song by Leon Redbone.
When is the Southern Hemisphere's Harvest Moon? For the Southern Hemisphere, the autumn equinox falls in March. So the Southern Hemisphere always has a full moon with these same characteristics – rising shortly after sunset for several nights in a row – in March or April.
What are some other full moon names? Every full moon has a name. The names vary in cultures around the world, and they particularly vary between the Northern and Southern Hemispheres. One of the most famous full moon names – other than Harvest Moon – is Hunter's Moon. That's the name for the full moon after the Harvest Moon. For the Northern Hemisphere, this year's Hunter's Moon comes on October 8. Read more about full moon names here.
Bottom line: The Harvest Moon in 2015 comes on the night of September 27-28. It's a supermoon, or full moon closest to Earth for the month, and in fact it's the closest supermoon for this year. What's more, the Harvest Moon will stage a total lunar eclipse on this same night.

Toys for Tots
Published: Friday, January 25, 2013 at 12:17 a.m.

Like many other charitable organizations, it was a tough year for Toys for Tots for raising money and toys. By cutting back on the number of toys given to each child, we were able to fill toy requests from 9,076 children in Polk County. Our sincere thanks go to all the many people and organizations who contributed to the Toys for Tots program. Our special thanks to The Ledger, Big 4 Radio and Commercial Warehousing for their continued support in this endeavor.
We needed more volunteers to help run the Polk program. New volunteers and new ideas are urgently needed. Anyone interested, please contact Toys for Tots at 863-292-8687.

Horror Story: Rude Awakening Awaits Western Economies
That HSBC group chief economist Stephen King shares a name with a famous writer of scary stories is a coincidence that he may tire of hearing.
But it's fair to say that with his latest book, When the Money Runs Out: The End of Western Affluence, he is dabbling in the financial equivalent of the horror genre. Perhaps even scarier, his is the stuff of nonfiction.
Mr. King's thesis — outlined in an interview at The Wall Street Journal — is that we in the West are in line for a shock when we discover that the high-growth rates to which we're accustomed aren't coming back. In the U.S., we've been wrongly budgeting for a return to 3.5% average real growth rates that persisted through the second half of the 20th century — an affliction suffered by both policymakers and households that he calls an "optimism bias" — and yet even before the financial crisis destroyed trillions of dollars of wealth the economy was only clocking gains of 2.5% per year.
Forget worrying about the post-crisis onset of a Japan-style "lost decade," Mr. King says. "We have been through a lost decade already."
Among the reasons for this long-term shift to a slower potential growth rate, he cites the exhaustion of a various one-off productivity gains that boosted growth after World War II: the entry of women into the workforce; the liberalization of world trade; a tripling in rates of consumer credit founded on an unsustainable increase in housing prices; and education. These gains are no longer to be had, he says, but policymakers are blind to that fact and so are burdening the economies of the U.S., Europe and Japan with long-term debts.
Mr. King worries that central banks are only exacerbating the problem, feeding the optimism bias by propping up financial markets with aggressive monetary policies such as the "quantitative easing" pursued by the Federal Reserve, the Bank of Japan and the Bank of England. Although QE was appropriate at the height of the crisis in 2008 and 2009, when it helped avoid a repeat of the Great Depression, it now used as means of falsely promising a return to the bygone years of strong growth, he said. As the economist put it, "QE became less of a powerful antibiotic and more of an addictive painkiller."
And whereas central bankers have viewed their accommodative policies as having modest benefits with zero costs, Mr. King finds all sorts of inefficiencies and costs from these actions. Mostly, it comes in the form of income redistribution, he said. For example, lower rates allow large U.S. corporations to borrow cheaply but in an environment of perpetually low growth they distribute the gains to shareholders via buybacks and dividends in lieu of hiring more workers. And because the holders of financial assets who benefit from such transfers tend to be wealthier individuals with a "lower propensity to consume," there's little accompanying jolt to the wider economy from their wealth gains.
This plays out in the disparity between the stock market's multiyear advance and the underperformance of the economy, which Mr. King said reflects "the growing gap between hope and economic reality."

I'm using 1.20.400 on MacOSX 10.6.2 in 64bit mode. My problem is, that the memory consumption of this version is rising from transcode to transcode. After transcoding around 6 files with each about 250MB my PS3 Media Server is consuming 894,5MB physical memory. After the first transcode the memory consumption rose from 106,4MB to 284,3MB and so on.
My second problem is, that all files that contain Umlauts are not displayed on my PS3.

These files were ripped by myself from DVD using HandBrake 0.9.4.
This happens as well with files that contain characters like "?" or ",".

EUR-USD headed to session lows in rather uninspiring trade. The pairing printed 1.1306, with London position squaring driving the modest move. The weaker than expected EU consumer confidence outcome took some shine off the euro, though into Friday's Yellen speech, range trade can be expected to hold up, with 1.1300 the likely midpoint.

The dollar traded on a soft footing, although recouped from lows seen during the London AM session. USD-JPY pressure drove the broader move following a Nikkei newspaper article that shone a light on growing market speculation that the Japanese government will not intervene in the currency market any time soon, which, the report maintains, may take away what little downward pressure still remains on the yen.

November 23, 2012
The vacant retail property count in the UK has reached a new high. The findings of the latest Vacancies Monitor, published by the British Retail Consortium (BRC), show that the national town centre vacancy rate in the UK was 11.3% in October 2012 (including high streets and shopping centres) – the highest figure since the Monitor was established.
The research shows some major national and regional differences – in Northern Ireland the figure was 20.0%, in Wales it was 15.1% and in England, the North & Yorkshire recorded the highest vacancy rates (14.6%).
Footfall in the three months to October was 0.4% lower than a year ago, but this was better than the 3.3% fall in the previous quarter. Footfall weakened on the high street (dropping by 0.9%), while out-of-town and shopping centre locations saw a slight improvement.
Stephen Robertson, director general of the BRC, said: "This new high in empty shop numbers really sets alarm bells ringing. It's the worst vacancy rate since the survey began in July 2011, and confirms that financial challenges for both customers and retailers are far from over.
"Many retailers are battling stagnating sales and rising costs, and next year's threatened business rates increase can only make matters worse. If the Government wants to breathe life back into our town centres and ensure the retail industry can play its full role in job creation, it needs to freeze rates in 2013."
The impact of online
And as electronics retailers Comet closes its doors, VoucherCodesPro has conducted a flash poll that reveals that consumers think online retailers are to blame for the demise of big high street names. The poll of 2,491 consumers found that 88% blame online-only retailers for the recent demise of Comet.
When asked to identify which specific retailers consumers felt were to blame, Amazon topped the poll with 61% of the votes, followed by eBay with 28%. And when asked, "Why do you think online-only retailers can charge less for products than high street retailers?" 62% selected the option "because they pay less tax."

Riza tricks a Roy-disguised Envy into giving himself away, and fires at him repeatedly. He manages to gain the advantage over her, but Roy arrives and continues attacking him viciously with his flames. Envy's body begins to decompose as his embryonic form tries to escape, but is trapped under Roy's foot. Riza points her gun at the real Roy, however, refusing to let him surrender to his rage in revenge. Edward and Scar arrive, and Ed takes posession of Envy, with Roy threatening him. Ed, Scar, and Riza talk him down from his madness, which surprises Envy. Envy tries to rile them up against each other, but is unable to. Edward suggests that Envy is jealous of humans, of how they help each other and endure crises. Outraged and humiliated, Envy commits suicide. Meanwhile, the Armstrong siblings continue to fight Sloth, with Alex tricking Sloth into slamming his arm back into place, and then plummeling him repeatedly and using his alchemy. The Briggs troops attack the front gate, leading the commander in charge to order firing at the unevacuated areas, but before he can complete the command, Buccaneer arrives to stop him, as does Falman, and Izumi Curtis. Deep underground, Hohenheim confronts Father, formerly the Dwarf in the Flask.

Dang, Colleen did beautifully at the beginning for the "burn my back" scene. That's one thing that stood out for me. She was just amazing in general, as always, so no complaints there.
One thing I don't remember hearing in Brotherhood, or the first series, was the voice of whomever Envy was disguised as blending into Envy's own voice when switching into his original form. For some reason, I was totally in love with the transition of Roy's voice to Envy's after Riza played that trick on him. Don't think they did that with the original. I freakin' loved the tone in Roy's voice when he was surprised to find Ed with them, the "Aw, Fullmetal. Let me have that," and his threat to burn Ed's hand. And when Riza told him she knew he was a better person than that and she couldn't see him fall to that level. Everyone nailed the tones of the emotion coming through their voices. And good job Wendy. XD I knew you were dreading this scene. XD
I only had a few nick picks. One was some of Ed's dialogue when he was yelling at Roy about looking at his own face. I didn't like how Ed asked him if he would become a monster, or something like that, rather than screaming out becoming the ruler of the country was what he was fighting for. And then Travis' attempts with his final scream when blasting Envy and his cry when he let out that final blast down the tunnel sounded a little awkward. But then Miki Shinichirou is my most favorite seiyuu, and was nothing short of God of Voices when it came to these scenes (his screams and cries never fail to give me goosebumps) and after watching this episode over 50 times literally subbed, it was strange hearing it in english finally. So Travis (for me personally) had A LOT to fill in, and I had a REALLY hard time not comparing his performance with the sub, even though I'm usually pretty good about that.
So other than that one line from Ed (Vic's actually performance through the whole thing was downright amazing), and a little of Roy's mega screams/yells (not the actual dialogue; he got that down perfectly), everything was amazing as expected. Congrats guys, especially you Travis, considering after watching so many series just because of my love for Shinichirou over the course of 11 years (with this scene being one of the best in his career in my opinion), you took up the challenge wonderfully.

"The card was very well made. I didn't select the extra inspection option and it came out perfect! It is very elegant and a great choice!"
"Excellent quality. Wonderful to have the option of placing a picture on the back. Customer Service Rep worked with me to make it look balanced."
"I tend to like designs that are elegant rather than cute, and this design is beautifully elegant but trendy all at once. Perfect for the shower I'm throwing."
"This design is so elegant. The responses received have been so positive about the beautiful bridal shower invitation. My daughter is a teacher and the black unique shape allowed us to incorporate that bit of whimsy on a very stunning invitation in her wedding colors! Only concern, wish the font could be larger/bolder. It appeared larger on my screen while designing. Overall, extremely pleased with our purchase!"
"This invitation was very easy to personalize and the final product is excellent. I was concerned about shipping time so I paid for expedited shipping. The invitations arrived in perfect condition in just 3 days."

Substantial Performance
of a Contract
New March 5, 2010
The <party>
claims that (he/she/it) has substantially performed the contract. Even if <party>
has not complied exactly with the terms of a contract, (he/she/it) has
substantially performed under the contract where (his/her/its) performance is so
similar to the required performance that it is nearly equivalent to the
performance for which the parties bargained. A party has substantially
performed under the contract when any deviation from the contract is minor and
unimportant and does not seriously impair the purpose of the provision of the
contract in question.
If <party>
has not complied with a material term of the contract, (he/she/it) has not
substantially performed the contract.
<See Material Breach of
Contract, Instruction 4.2-13.>
Argentinis v. Gould,
219 Conn. 151, 157 (1991); Mortgage Electronic Registration Systems, Inc. v.
Goduto, 110 Conn. App. 367, cert. denied, 289 Conn. 956 (2008); Borrelli
v. H & H Contracting, Inc., 100 Conn. App. 680, 692 n.6 (2007), appeal
dismissed, 285 Conn. 553, 940 (2008); S. Williston, Contracts (4th Ed. 2000)
44.54, 44.55.
precedent is clear: Parties are entitled to get that for which they bargain.@ Borrelli v. H & H Contracting, Inc., 100 Conn. App.
680, 692 (2007), appeal dismissed, 285 Conn. 553 (2008). Only full performance
discharges a party=s duty under a contract:
ANothing less than full performance, however, has this effect
and any defect in performance, even an insubstantial one, prevents discharge on
this ground.@
2 Restatement (Second), Contracts
' 235, comment (a) (1981).
substantial performance charge, however, is available in the context of a
defense of a breach of contract claim. Under this doctrine, the contract breach
is excused, not because compliance with the terms is objectively impossible, but
because actual performance is so similar to the required performance that any
breach that may have been committed is immaterial. Borrelli v. H & H
Contracting, Inc., supra, 100 Conn. App. 680, 692 n.6.
Additionally, a substantial performance charge may be available where plaintiffs
may not have fully performed the contract but nonetheless seeks to pursue
contract remedies. See, e.g., Vincenzi v. Cerro, 186 Conn. 612, 615
(1982). Such plaintiffs, however, may only recover under a contract theory if
they have substantially performed:
when a builder breaches a bilateral construction contract by an unexcused
failure to render substantial performance, he cannot maintain an action on the
contract to recover the unpaid balance of the contract price because substantial
performance, a constructive condition of the owner's duty to pay the balance,
has not been satisfied. See 2 Restatement (Second), Contracts 237, comment (d);
3A A. Corbin, Contracts (1964) 701, 710; see generally Lach v. Cahill,
138 Conn. 418, 421, 85 A.2d 481 (1951); Sheketoff v. Prevedine, 133 Conn.
389, 392‑93 (1947). The balance of the contract price, therefore, is not
the builder. See 3A A. Corbin, supra,
Argentinis v. Gould, 219 Conn. 151, 157 (1991).
Substantial performance is typically raised in the context of construction
contracts; Mortgage Electronic Registration Systems, Inc. v. Goduto,
110 Conn. App. 367, 373, cert. denied, 289 Conn. 956 (2008); but has also been
applied in the context of land sale contracts; Mihalyk v. Mihalyk,
11 Conn. App. 610, 616 (1987); and employment contracts. Burns v.
Gould, 172 Conn. 210, 221 (1977).
doctrine is inapplicable, however, to claims arising under the Uniform
Commercial Code because, under the perfect tender rule, a buyer may reject an
improper delivery if the goods or tender of delivery fail in any respect
to conform to the contract. See General Statutes
42a‑2‑601. But see Franklin Quilting Co., Inc. v. Orfaly,
1 Conn. App. 249, 251 n.3 (1984) (perfect tender rule requires a
Asubstantial nonconformity@ to the contract before buyer may reject goods).
Furthermore, where a contract is fully performed, but the omissions and
variations result from impracticability of performance, then the doctrine of
substantial performance may not apply because impracticability may discharge the
duty to perform the variations on the contract. See Grenier v.
Compratt Construction Co., 189 Conn. 144 (1983); 2 Restatement (Second),
235, comment (a) (1981).

People's Daily Quotes the Onion: Kim Jong Eun 'Sexiest Man Alive'
By Carlos Tejada and Josh Chin
The official voice of the Chinese Communist Party appears to have been had.
The People's Daily newspaper, which for more than six decades has sternly spouted the party line, on Tuesday posted on its website a 55-photo slideshow dedicated to North Korean dictator Kim Jong Eun. The occasion: The satirical newspaper the Onion earlier this month declared the double-chinned Mr. Kim the "sexiest man alive for 2012."
The slideshow – which begins with a photo of Mr. Kim astride a dappled gray, looking stoically into the distance – quotes liberally from the Onion and offers no evidence that a tongue is anywhere in the vicinity of a cheek. "With his devastatingly handsome, round face, his boyish charm, and his strong, sturdy frame, this Pyongyang-bred heartthrob is every woman's dream come true," the text below the slideshow says, citing the Onion.
"He has that rare ability to somehow be completely adorable and completely macho at the same time," it quotes Onion Style and Entertainment Editor Marissa Blake-Zweibel as saying. China Real Time has more.

Health Hints: 6 Surprising Energy Zappers
If you're sick and tired of feeling, well, you know, find out why your energy levels are so low and vow to make a health change -- or six
The problem is energy zappers -- the drains on our bodies and minds that make us feel like we're running out of steam and like our health is in jeopardy. And, as if feeling like you're moving at half-speed isn't bad enough, that energy void is often telegraphed by your appearance: dull skin, under-eye circles, lifeless hair -- you get the picture. It's like wearing a giant sandwich board that says "Will Work for Pep."
See which culprits are draining your energy.
Some of the biggest energy zappers in our day-to-day lives are obvious: job pressures, financial stress, relationship conflicts, poor eating habits, lack of sleep, and lack of exercise. Just listing them is exhausting.
But there are some surprising drains out there that may also be taking their toll on you and your health. To help figure out what they are (and what can be done to avoid them), we spoke with celebrity nutritionist Paula Simpson, which is a good thing because, as they say, knowledge is power and once you know what forces are working to wear you down, maybe you can do something to reclaim that lost energy.
And, P.S., if all else fails, we have a backup plan for you -- a few tips to at least help you look refreshed, revitalized and healthy -- even when you feel everything but.
See the list of energy zappers -- now. That is, if you can muster up the energy.
