England are within touching distance of the Ashes. On a dramatic afternoon yesterday they turned the series against Australia on its head.
All they must do now – and all is a very considerable amount indeed – is keep their nerve and apply their skills to their utmost, then some time this weekend the terracotta urn, which continues to be the cause of all the fuss, will be in their possession once more.
This series had already witnessed one compelling spell of fast bowling by England and on the second day of the fifth npower Test it saw another of still more resplendent vintage. This time it was not Andrew Flintoff, the hero of Lord's, but the new kid on the all-round block, Stuart Broad.
It is not quite a done deal (if the Ashes were a house, England would be on the verge of exchanging contracts) and, until the last ball is bowled, concerns must remain, the extent of which were demonstrated by the crucial loss of three English second-innings wickets in the evening when Mitchell Johnson looked equally lethal.
The first-innings lead, however, was 172, a margin rude with health for the home side, and by the end of proceedings, at 58 for 3, that had been extended to 230. During the day, 243 runs were scored and 15 wickets lost.
Broad delighted a crowd hardly able to take it in. In an insistent, constantly probing spell which made full use of a capricious pitch and Australia's doubts about it, he not only undermined the opposition's innings but probably turned the rubber irrevocably England's way. For its timing as well as its skill, it was up there with the greatest of all Ashes bowling. He was abetted by the off-spinner, Graeme Swann, who was equally effective and enthused by the occasion.
The surface was unquestionably part of the cause of Australia's downfall – as it was for England's losses in the evening – and England were also helped on their way to a likely reception at the palace by two abject umpiring decisions, one of which was not leg before because the batsman hit it and one of which was not out caught because the batsman did not hit it.
But neither of those elements was to blame for Australia's third first-innings failure of the series. As England had at Headingley a fortnight earlier, they froze, dogged by their suspicions about a pitch which was behaving on the second day as if it had been played on for half a lifetime.
In short, Australia felt the pitch had been rigged to ensure that there could be no draw and they were deeply disturbed by it. They might have expected to be on the wrong end of some crass umpiring as they have been for much of the summer – the unfortunate guilty party on both occasions was Asad Rauf – but it cannot have helped their state of mind.
Broad finished with 5 for 37 from 12 consecutive overs in the prolonged post-lunch session. It was the 237th time that an England bowler had taken five wickets or more in an innings against Australia but few of the previous 236, including his own haul at Leeds, can have been so thrillingly influential.
Had England fielded two spinners, which had seemed probable and might have been advisable given the nature of the surface, Broad could have been omitted. As it was, he was the fifth of England's five bowlers to be given a bash. By then Australia, who will rue for an age their decision to play without a specialist spinner, had survived some early scares and progressed rather jauntily to 73 without loss, thus positioning themselves for a tilt at England's adequate but hardly formidable total of 332.
Then Broad arrived. He was given immediate confidence by winning a justified lbw verdict against Shane Watson in his first over, and shortly afterwards he dislodged the cream of Australia's batting. The audience was spellbound. Ricky Ponting, Mike Hussey and Michael Clarke all succumbed to Broad in the space of nine balls without him conceding a run.
He bowled full, straight and within himself. Ponting, uncommonly nervous and agitated, a man who knew what he had to do but had forgotten how to do it, chopped on from an inside edge with his feet stuck in the crease. Hussey was undone by the third ball he faced cutting back into him, removed for a duck for the second time in the series and then, wicket of wickets, Clarke, the batsman of the series, reached for a cover drive and was snaffled by Jonathan Trott standing at short extra for precisely such a misjudgement.
Swann could be thankful both for Broad's incisions and for the official help provided in the case of two of his four wickets. But that could not detract from some wise off-break bowling which made judicious use of the turning pitch. If Marcus North and Stuart Clark were wronged, Swann was simply too adroit on the day for Simon Katich and Mitchell Johnson.
There was plenty of time for England to extend their lead, plenty too for the tourists to keep the Ashes flame flickering. Naturally, they chose the latter course. Alastair Cook tamely touched a non-turning off-break to slip but Johnson worked up some serious pace. He dispatched a wary Ian Bell prodding to short leg and Paul Collingwood with a vicious lifter which was haplessly dealt with. The game was still on, but not for much longer.

Wow, I think my perfectly normal character would be......ReplyDelete
Roran Stronghammer. He has no magic in a magician's world, and he just adapts so well. Also his dedication to Katrina.... :)
I just love him so much, and I would want to meet him out of a LOT of other characters..
- YearningtoReadMay 9, 2012 at 5:24 PM
OMG! I never thought I'd meet (er, talk to) someone who loves Roran just as much as I do! I think he'd definitely be my pick! :DReplyDelete
Hmmm...I think my favourite normal character would be Lyra Belacqua from His Dark Materials (I know she can inexplicably read the compass, but I don't generally find that to be "magic") - she's in this extraordinary world with so many forces working around her, but she makes it through based on cunning and intelligence.ReplyDelete
If that doesn't count though, current favourite would be Bria Sandoval from Wanderlove by Kirsten Hubbard - she's this strong female character who manages to balance being brave and decisive with scared, lost and hurting.
- YearningtoReadMay 9, 2012 at 11:53 PM
Great normal characters, Ashley! :D Thanks for entering! :DReplyDelete
Hahahaha I love Effie! <3 x) I think she was one of my favourite parts of the Hunger Games movie, if not the books!ReplyDelete
And oh my gosh, YAY SIERRA! I just went back to your super-sweet review of Ordinary Magic and it sounds absolutely adorable, so thanks a million for a chance to win it! :) If you asked me who my fave ordinary character was, I don't know who I would've picked, but now that you mentioned Watson, I can't get him out of my head! I love Jude Law in the movies -- although RDJr as Sherlock is even better! :')
I'm glad you're a part of this tour, Sierra! Thanks so much! :) <3
That's a hard one and actully I'm not sure I have a answer for you. I don't know if I've read a book with an ordinary character in an extraordinary world. That's probably not true but I can't think of one! ;(ReplyDelete
- Lauren M.May 10, 2012 at 8:22 AM
I don't know if this character is completely ordinary, but I absolutely loved Neville Longbottom in the Harry Potter series. I think he should have gotten more credit than he did.ReplyDelete
- Farrah DMay 10, 2012 at 11:01 AM
I certainly hope that 'the odds will be in my favor'! (oh and never and I mean NEVER refrain from saying HG quotes! They make my day!) hhhmm ordinary character... AHAA! *light bulb* Henry York! He is ordinary until he go's through a cupboard into a different world... But anyway.... N.D.Wilson is AWESOME!!!!!! :):):)ReplyDelete
- Christina FrankeMay 10, 2012 at 11:21 AM
What about Katniss? She does all of that without any powers that a human doesn't have. Wow. Blows the mind, right?ReplyDelete
I just finished Bitterblue, so I think I'll have to say Bitterblue is my current favorite Ordinary (but wonderful) character in a book full of extraordinary people.ReplyDelete
Maybe it's because I have a weakness for underdogs, but I adore Argus Filch in the Harry Potter series. He's such a miserable old prune, and I feel so sorry for his Squibness! I can't say that I would behave much better if I had to live in a world where everyone was magical but me.ReplyDelete
- TheycallmebossyMay 10, 2012 at 2:53 PM
My favorite normal character would have to be Simon from the Mortal Instruments. Well, he's not normal anymore... but when he was just an average guy, he made the best side kick. Still does! :)ReplyDelete
Oh man, this is a hard one. Even if they're underpowered, I don't think of characters I love as "ordinary?" Ummmmmm.ReplyDelete
I loved Lady Celia, in Elizabeth Moon's Hunting Party. She's an old lady whose training has all be about how to be a noblewoman. But she's smart, and stubborn, and when murderers kidnap her idiot nephew, the learns how to turn all her skills to her advantage in the rescue party. And she's awesome.
Matt from The Vampire Diaries he was such a good friend and stuck it out with his friends through all the vampire drama!ReplyDelete
- Diana AultMay 12, 2012 at 3:25 PM
Oscar, one of Nat Ng's best friends in Cat Girl's Day Off by Kimberly Pauley.ReplyDelete
I'm picking a picture book for this example because it's PERFECT. :D It's a really sweet story called "Ordinary Mary's Extraordinary Deed" She is totally ordinary and very sweet. A favorite picture book of mine.ReplyDelete
- Tressa ShermanMay 16, 2012 at 8:15 PM
Off the top of my head I would say Ethan from Beautiful Creatures series.ReplyDelete
- Suz ReadsMay 17, 2012 at 2:00 PM
I like Cinder from Cinder because she has obstacles (being a cyborg and having a step-mom who doesn't like her) but she doesn't let them stop her from doing what she wants and being happy.ReplyDelete
- LaurenMay 19, 2012 at 12:50 PM
my favorite ordinary character? I love Charlie from The Perks of Being a Wallflower. does that count?!ReplyDelete
- Cwyant3497May 19, 2012 at 5:26 PM
Callum from Callum and Harper. I guess his personality makes him so loveable and one of my favorite protagonists.ReplyDelete
i just finished endure so i think i'm gonna go with issie from the need series. she was surrounded by pixies and weres and was the only ordinary girl in her group of friends. plus i totally love her. she'd make an awesome bff : )ReplyDelete
- Kate BalintováMay 21, 2012 at 12:22 PM
My Ordinary character is Harry Potter I answer good? :D But this:D Harry Potter is my all childhoodReplyDelete
- CordeliaMay 21, 2012 at 2:27 PM
jane eyre....u just cannot get more ordinary than poor jane!!!!ReplyDelete
- Jennifer MetzMay 22, 2012 at 5:34 AM
I'm going to say Elizabeth Bennet from Pride & Prejudice - it's a beautiful story and she is an amazing woman!ReplyDelete

Live Commentary
Mexico takes a loss, Canada takes a loss, and Group A is completely up for grabs right now. Panama and mighty Martinique are on top, Mexico and Canada at the bottom after the first round of matches.
90' + 5'THAT'S IT!!! Panama with the WIN!!!
90' + 2'Everything this half, aside from the random dash forward from Panama, has been on one end of the field. But one of those breaks led to a goal, and Mexico just hasn't been able to break Panama down and find an equalizer.
90'Five minutes added on, so Mexico will get some of the wasted time back, but certainly not all of it.
87'SubstitutionGabriel Torres H. Cummings
87'Mexico needs to find a goal, just over 3 minutes left in regulation.
85'Panama wasting time and killing this clock with every chance. Players staying down, cramping, really trying to get out of the rest of this game and take the win.
84'SubstitutionG. Gómez J. Pérez
84'Big save! Panama survives the header from the corner.
84'Panama has to get an injured man off the field while Fabian waits to take the corner.
82'Mexico has a go, it's blocked out for a corner. El Tri needs to make one of these count.
81'Mexico with a ball forward, but Torres at the back for Panama has been a beast winning balls and made another really good tackle.
79'Panama, at the moment, is effectively killing this game off right now.
76'Panama hasn't had a meaningful spell with the ball in a while now, but Mexico hasn't exactly figured out an answer on how to create chances.
74'SubstitutionE. Velarde I. Brizuela
71'Quintero down on the pitch after a hard tackle. Not a good sign for Panama.
70'SubstitutionC. Waterman R. Blackburn
70'Waterman coming off now for Panama. Mexico will be alright with that sub.
68'Nice move there from Mexico. Ball played through the middle, swung out wide and crossed to the back post. Eventually it went out for a corner, but that's how you open up a team that's sitting deep.
67'Mexico starting to move the ball around with some pace, and pressing up the pitch, but Panama still looks a real threat on the counter.
63'Shouts for a foul, for a penalty, from the Mexican faithful. Nothing doing, goes out for a goalkick. Don't think it was a foul, but it was a risky tackle.
62'Foul called against Panama gives Mexico a break at the back.
59'Mexico has nobody at the back that can run with Waterman. He's won every footrace so far today. Won another one there, but the angle was too much for him to find the back post.
56'Another foul against Panama, drawn by Fabian, and now the pressure is mounting on Panama's defense.
55'The free kick takes a dangerous defelction and goes out for a corner, which Panama only manages to clear for a second one.
55'Mexico wins a free kick on the edge of the box.
53'FABIAN!!!! No! He hit the post. His first touch let him down, but Fabian still got a foot to it, only to see the ball drift off the outside of the post after barely a touch from the 'keeper.
52'Fabian went for the spectacular finish, looking for the bike, but he pushed off to open up the space. Not sure there was a need for him to play it at all.
50'Mexico has a crack back down at the other end, from about 40 out with a free kick. Seemed speculative all along and sailed over the bar.
49'On second look, that finish was still really, really nice.
48'Assist Quintero
48'Goal Gabriel Torres
And Panama is back in front!!! Torres... a really nice finish on a cross from Quintero, flicked in at the near post.
47'Early stages and both teams have already had one chance to get forward. High pace to the game as the second half gets rolling.
46'SubstitutionJ. Pereira J. Valenzuela
46'SubstitutionA. Castro C. Peña
46'The second half is under way.
Mexico pulls level right before the break. It's 1-1 at halftime, and there's probably plenty more drama to come. Stick around for the second half.
45' + 2'Assist I. Jiménez
45' + 2'Goal M. Fabián
GOAL MEXICO! Just a great ball over the top, Fabian sneaks in behind, takes it off his chest and pokes it home.
45' + 1'Three minutes of stoppage time.
45'Now another foul called against Fabian, who just smashed into Panama's goalkeeper while going for a cross.
43'Fabian getting frustrated, lashes out at a defender.
40'And now Panama hits the post.... Mexico in desperate need of halftime to get it together. This one should be heavily in Panama's favor by now, but Mexico is still down only one.
39'Lucky... very lucky for Mexico to not be behind 2-0. Honestly, not sure how Panama didn't score there. Mexico's defending looks really bad right now, and Panama has two shots from point blank and couldn't put either home.
38'Castro tries to pick out Fabian at the back post, but it once again it hit too far. Mexico really struggling to open up space in Panama's defense.
35'Gabriel Torres is giving Mexico all sorts of problems. A cross came in there that he just couldn't get on the end of, but it was another good look for Panama.
32'Panama with another player, Gomez, down on the ground. Not sure how serious that one is, but Panama looks like its already trying to kill this game off.
30'Panama playing the game now that it was expected to come out playing. Dropping deeper, trying to hit on the break. It's opening up some chances as well.
28'Mexico with a chance from a set play here, but the ball drifts just over Lugo's head and out for a goal kick.
26'Mexico in the middle of it's longest sustained attack. Panama still doing a really nice job of closing down the space and not really allowing chances.
24'A little delay for an injury, but Mexico continues to live dangerously. Panama's attack has been a surprise so far, really causing some problems.
20'Mexico is finding much space to work with in the final third. Panama doing a really nice job of closing down and breaking up play.
16'Torres blows this one over the top of goal... another scare for Mexico though. Panama has been very good so far, and this young Mexican team is struggling to keep pace.
15'Wow.. there's another call going against Mexico. It's just outside the box this time, so no penalty, but Panama will have a real chance.
12'Mexico's best chance of the early going is a header that is tapped over the bar. It's better from El Tri, finally looking dangerous in the last couple of minutes.
11'Cries for a second penalty for Panama are waved off. Would have been a harsh one to give.
10'Marquez Lugo and Fabian try to break forward but the passing is just inches off and kills what looked like a very dangerous break.
8'Not at all the start Mexico was looking for to this tournament. To Panama's credit, it's not as if Mexico has been the better side in these early stages. The Panamanians have clearly been on top of this game.
7'Penalty Goal Gabriel Torres
Torres! It's Panama taking a 1-0 lead from the spot. Well taken penalty.
6'PENALTY!!! Panama wins a penalty, and Mexico is off to a really rocky start.
3'Mexico gives up a foul in a slightly dangerous position, but the ball in is cleared and the danger is gone.
1'We're off and running. Panama in the all-white kit, Mexico in the Green with white shorts and red socks.
Just minutes away from the opening kick as the national anthems are played for both sides. We should have a good game on our hands here, and if the first match was anything to judge by, this Gold Cup could be full of drama.
That being said, this Panama team is always a threat. Blas Perez can bring the goals, and the overall athletic talent on the team is hard to match. This isn't a CONCACAF minnow that will come into the match scared to play against Mexico.
El Tri has some questions to answer coming into the Gold Cup. The first choice team has struggled in 2013, winning only once, but this is a different group, and maybe one with a different mentality. Goals have been scarce, but Mexico has more than a few attacking options at its disposal, and the players here will be looking to earn their way into next year's World Cup team.
We had a stunner in the 2013 Gold Cup opener, with Canada taking a loss to Martinique in late and dramatic fashion. Now Group A's two favored teams will face off to see if anybody can keep pace. Mexico, back at the scene of its 2011 final win over the USA, faces off against a Panama side that played in the semifinals that year. Stick around and we'll bring you all the action.

any specific reason for waiting until 2009?(hope i'm not prying)
I don't have bees yet, I want to do all my research this year so I will be good and prepared to start next year. Don't get me wrong, I am *so* anxious to get started! I am fascinated and I want my very own honey and personal pollenators! But I have learned from sad experience that I have a weakness for getting in too deep too quickly and being unable to hand the workload. We just barely moved to the country and took on dairy goats and laying hens along with producing plants, and that right there is keeping us very busy. Seriously, we feel like we are holding on by our fingernails most times.
I started beekeeping by reading "Beekeeping for Dummies" which is an excellent book because it is written in such an easy manner showing step by step how to get started.
Oh, you guys are cruel! :p :-D

Hi everyone! Christmas is just around the corner and have you decked your house with Christmas decors, bought your Christmas presents and making a food and drink list for the party? Many who knows me knows that Christmas is one of my favourite holiday! There is a lot to be rejoice and happy about even if you are not a Christian; the food, drinks, presents and most importantly spending quality time with the family!
Today I am very excited to be back with a blog post on a Christmas carol inspired theme – O Holy Night by Lilypad Lacquer exclusively available at Beauty So Fly. It contains two cool shades for those who prefer a winter feel and two warmer shades for those who need to feel the Christmas warm.
Angels Sing is a sweet cornflower blue holo with gold micro flakies. The consistency is slightly thicker than the rest of the collection and there was also a slight unevenness but it will even out once you applied the topcoat. I must add that I had a mini bottle for sample swatch so that could be the reason for the less than perfect end result. Having said that it applied easily. I used 3 coats for the photos.
Let me start by mentioning the biggest disclaimer on the next shade, Glorious Day, it is total pain in the ass to capture the colour correctly on any camera and every photos that I took of this turned out differently. But it is a gorgeous soft greyish lilac holo accented beautifully with copper fakies. The consistency is perfect and applied smoothly. My photos just do not justify the gorgeousness of this colour and I'm actually surprise this works against my skin tone, in real life that is. I used 3 coats for the photos.
Kingdom Reign is what I called a perfect Christmas tree green shade. It is a very flattering emerald green holo swimming with green shimmers and micro flakies. I couldn't wish for a better consistency and it is so saturated that it applied smoothly in 2 coats.
I saved the best for last and can I just start off by saying I gasped when I saw the bottle. Royal Birth is a gorgeous vampy oxblood red accented with scattered rainbow holo and flakies. The jelly consistency is top notch and applied smoothly! And oh this totally reminds me of Christmas fruitcake! I just cannot stop staring at my nails when I had it on as it is so sparkly! I used 3 coats for the photos.
This collection is very well executed with choices of cooler and warmer shades to choose from. If the wallet allows I'd say get the whole collection but if you have to choose Royal Birth is the obvious choice. This is such a breath taking shade not to be missed and totally an apt shade for the festive season. And hey oxblood shade is all the rave this year isn't it?
This collection will be launching exclusively at Beauty So Fly on 14 December 2015 at 9:30PM SGT retailing at SGD$18 per bottle or $65 as a set. Set your alarm!

Dog adoption and cat adoption saves lives. Adopt a dog or adopt a cat and you'll have a friend for life! Contact us, or contact another local humane society, animal shelter or SPCA.
The Citizens for Humane Animal Treatment of Wakulla, Inc., known as CHAT of Wakulla is a 501(c)(3) not-for-profit, charitable corporation committed to improving the health, safety, and well-being of domesticated animals. We are a limited intake organization (controlled by space available at the adoption center and available foster homes) with a guaranteed adoption policy. CHAT contracts with Wakulla County and operates the ANIMAL ADOPTION CENTER at 1 Oak Street, Crawfordville, FL, 32327 (next to the WAKULLA ANIMAL CONTROL office and shelter).
We work closely with Wakulla Animal Control assisting with medical care for animals in their control and once animals have been held for five days (required by law), we bring animals into our care for foster and adoption. Upon entering CHAT's care, dogs are given shots for distemper, parvo, parainfluenza, hepatitis, bordatella, wormed, tested for heartworms (and treated when necessary) and there after given monthly heartworm preventatives. Upon entering CHATS care, cats are tested for Feline Leukemia/Feline Aids and intestinal parasites and dewormed and vaccinated for rhinotracheitis, calicivirus, panleukopenia, chlamydia and leukemia.
Our phone number is 850-926-0890 and we'd love to hear from you, have you visit the Adoption Center and become a member of CHAT. Please visit our website (www.chatofwakulla.org) for more information about volunteering, fostering, donating and becoming a member. We are a tax-exempt organization under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code. Our Articles of Incorporation were filed on August 8, 2001. Our roots are in the former Wakulla Humane Society, an organization that had been active for over 30 years

Why should you adopt?
Dog adoption and cat adoption saves lives. Adopt a dog or adopt a cat and you'll have a friend for life! What is the difference between adopting a dog, adopting a cat, adopting a kitten or adopting a puppy versus getting dogs for sale, cats for sale, puppies for sale or kittens for sale from a dog breeder or a cat breeder? When someone is breeding puppies or breeding kittens, they are creating new dogs and cats who need homes. Some people are interested in a very specific breed of dog, cat, puppy or kitten and they think the only way to find that specific breed is to buy a dog for sale or buy a cat for sale from a puppy breeder or a kitten breeder. Yet animal shelters are filled with dogs and cats who must find homes. So rather than buying a dog or puppy for sale from a dog breeder or buying a cat or kitten for sale from a cat breeder, we encourage people to adopt a dog, adopt a cat, adopt a puppy or adopt a kitten at their local animal shelter, SPCA, humane society or pet rescue group.

Bioshock - Official Trailer #2 @ Gamespot
Gamespot has the second official trailer today. Get a look at it at Gamespot.
More information.
Seeing as how this is being developed for pc and Xbox360 at the same time, I sure hope it doesn't end up being another Deus-Ex invisible War.
Every time a game is made for the pc and a console system simultaneously, the pc version always ends up looking and playing just like the console version. Pc ports rarely seem to take advantage of the pc platform.
yes but this is irrational we are talking about-every single game they have made has been a pc game-most of which are great games too.
A long time has passed since System Shock 2, (9 years?) and Irrationals's best games were all pc only games.
I'm not going to allow myself to get too excited over Bioshock before it is released.
*edit* A little over 7 years since SS2
swat 4 and expansion -one of the few shooters i've played, and loved them both.
freedom force and sequel-good games but not being a comic fan, i never could finish them. minuteman also annoyed me to no end, though characters like el diablo made it worth while.
tribes vengence-never played any other tribes games, just like with swat games, but it was enjoyable, but not a great or all that original game.
all in the past 7 years since system shock 2.
did they make any non pc only games?
i think i told someone this before already: its actually good to not have many expectations for bioshock though so 'you' can be blown away when it comes out.
I didn't say that they haven't been making games, but it's been a very long time since they've made that type of game. Also, Take-Two Interactive acquired Irrational Games some time ago and this isn't the same team that existed 7 years ago.
obviously the team has changed, but at least two of the promenint people who founded it are still there i believe. and take-two aquired them just under a year ago, which bioshock had already been under development for at least a couple of years at that point.
i believe there were 5 years between system shock 1 and 2. and so i'm not really sure what you mean by that type of game. all of irrational's 'types' of games are different francshises. since they didn't have the rights to system shock its not like they are going to go out and use the idea before they have become a secure company. the swat games artistically are a lot like system shock 2 in that they have great level design, and the artistic variation is huge and realistic down to objects strewn across floors, in cabinets, and such. also the 'intenseness' i got from playing system shock 2 was felt by me in the swat games. opening a door and getting blown away had a terrifying effect on me like getting blown up by a walking droid that had just broken out of its box…to me i play games a lot for their style and depth (which i come to depend on from the few great developers) whether it is a rpg, rpg hybrid, fps, or whatever. until about five years ago i refused to play any 1st person game since they all seemed like mindless shooters. but after playing system shock 2 and deus ex, i expanded just a bit, though am still 'wary' of what most 1st person games have to offer me. and without a demo, no go for me.
No, I'm sure the people aren't all the same but it is the same "team", I believe lead by Jonathon Chey, who has played a prominent role in SS2 and FF, for example.
Curious, I think you missed my point entirely. None of the games that you've mentioned were developed simultaneously for pc and a console system.
Also not sure if you're aware that System Shock 1&2 were created by two entirely different developement teams.
Ken Levine was also the lead designer for System Shock 2
Doug Church was the lead designer for System Shock 1
yes, ss1 was done by looking glass studios while ss2 was done by irrational games . i actually played 2 first and enjoyed it much more. i guess we just miss understood each other. i said that because they hadn't done console games and were pc gamers themselves and had made only pc games that i believed they would definately make the pc version 'better' or at least not sacrafice it to the whims of console lovers. if anyting it should be the console people who are worried that it will be 'too complex'. doesn't a track record of solely pc games warrant some level of trust?
No not really. I had a lot of trust in Warren Spector and Ion Storm Inc after they created the masterpiece that was the first Deus Ex.
The bottom line is that for the sake of profits, the development team has no choice but to cater to the larger audience.
I am very confused now, afaik it's the same people, they have had a very small family type team before Take2.
I only recall one of the orginal founders retiring or not coming along for the move to Take2.
Also I remember as Dhruin mentions it's JChey in the Lead, KLevine has said he focuses on being creative again working on his writing and running the public side as with all the interiews and shows he has been doing, since he no longer has to chase the money.
As per KLevine I remember they have almost complete freedom as when the orginal design with WW2 enemies was going nowhere after showing Take2, he told them it was crap and they could do a hell of a better, hence the current Bioshock theme.
Yes KLevine was Lead Designer and JChey was Project Manager.
It will all come down to how flexable is the U3 engine and it looks like 7 years 1999.
They should have an easy time of it since they have worked with Unreal on at least 2, maybe 3 games, so they have the groove.
Warren's more of a front man or manager, his creative input according to him was Optical interface which got left out of Deus Ex (thank god) and he was a (outside?) producer for SS1, iir.
Nice trailer btw and Sprng 2007. :cheer:
one game no matter how great it is not a track record as i see it. its a bit like a band who has an amazing first album, but exhausted all their talent and creativity in it and followed it up with much lower quality productions.
Warren Spector has created more than just one great game. He worked on Ultima Underworld I and II, System Shock, and Thief to name a few.
i thought we were talking about irrational, not ken levine which would then be a comparison to ion storm not warren spector. though looking back you did say both. but while i agree with putting faith in one person's creativeness, i do it often, results are more likely to be consistent/balanced when referring to a development team/company as a whole. ion storm also had more than one great game but as i recall there were also 2 studios that produced games--one in dallas and one in austin i believe. i liked anachrox better than dues ex which were each produced at different studios, though i can't remember which one worked mostly on daikatana (one more reason for me to not like fps…)
"Warren Spector has created"
How do you mean created?
He doesn't program and don't all the credits of those games say producer?
Thief? That's KLevine's story, actually his first for games, after he left the movie indusrty.
Here you can look for yourself at his own bio, it's producer and manager. :)
Warren Spector received a BS in Speech from Northwestern University and an MA in Radio-TV-Film from the University of Texas at Austin. In 1983, just shy of his PhD in Communication, Warren joined Steve Jackson Games where he worked on a variety of boardgames and RPGs while rising to the position of Editor-in-Chief. Four years later, he moved to TSR, where he added boardgame design, choose-your-own-adventure books and novels to his resume. Warren entered the world of electronic games with ORIGIN in 1989, co-producing Ultima VI and Wing Commander and producing Ultima Underworld 1 and 2, Ultima VII: Serpent Isle, System Shock, Wings of Glory, Bad Blood, Martian Dreams and others. In 1997, after a year as General Manager of Looking Glass Austin, Warren started Ion Storm's Austin development studio. He was project director on Ion's award-winning action/RPG, Deus Ex, published in June 2000. Deus Ex was reissued in a 2001 Game of the Year edition and, in 2002, as Deus Ex: The Conspiracy on PS2. As Studio Director, he oversaw development of Deus Ex: Invisible War, released in December 2003, and Thief: Deadly Shadows, released in June 2004. He left Ion Storm in November 2004 to found Junction Point Studios, Inc., to develop videogames for next gen platforms.
Look don't get me wrong I think he has important things to say, though after what he and Harvey did to DX2 I didn't read his interviews for almost a year, I was so pissed. :p
Read my post again. I said he WORKED ON those games. Which is an accurate statement. He did have a hand in creating them.
I did read which is why I am trying to participate, just not sure what you mean be create, why I asked. :)
Producers afaik usually are not credited with creating they are more organizers/manager types, so if your definition of create includes this then, I do, mine and the way I understand it usually doesn't.
Afaik Warren has spoken about wanting to create a world but has said in many interviews it hasn't happened yet.
I posted his known creative suggestion on Deus Ex, which I actually read on a DX2 interview since he was able to convince Harvey about the circular optic inventory.
I was on Blue's talking about KLevine and System Shock once and KLevine came in and corrected me on a couple of things related to his story/writing credits (the Irrational site had temporally gone down and I was working from memory) also about Warren being an outside producer on System Shock.
If I knew more I would certainly post it. :)
Also I blame Kalia. :p
As project director, he had a lot more influence on Deus-Ex than just some creative suggestions. He is also listed as a designer on System Shock 1.
This from Wikipedia…..
"Subsequently he worked with Origin Systems and Looking Glass Studios, on games including Ultima Underworld I and II, System Shock, and Thief. Later he founded Ion Storm Inc.'s Austin branch, which went on to develop the widely-acclaimed games Deus Ex, Deus Ex: Invisible War, and Thief: Deadly Shadows before being closed by owners Eidos Interactive in February 2005"
Anyways…. back to the topic.
Bioshock. Is it going to match the hype, or disappoint?

I found a list of places on your website that told where Tea in Texas was sold. Teapot Depot in Highlands is a favorite place of mine to eat, and so I went there for lunch and bought a copy. It is now on its way to my cousin in Georgia.
– Diane Gillet
Dear Tea in Texas,
The 2009 weather is finally getting a little cooler, it's been so hot in Waller County. (too many days over 100F) "Uncle Sam" visited this July, handing out bottle water to passer-bys and customers, it was 104F. What fun! Thanks for sending us visitors.
Joan Douglas
Texas Special Tea Shoppe
As we know, what goes around, comes around. When I was a youngling, tea with my Mima was precious time, her teacups, her manners… now I am Mima to 2 precious baby girls that admire my teas with such devotion. Your magazine is a great source for all things tea, thanks for sharing your lovely stories. We will be visiting Salado on our next trip.
-S. Castro Houston, TX
After coming across your web site, would love to receive your magazine. Are past issues available for purchase? Would appreciate any information you could send me. So many places to visit. Congratulations on a fine endeavor.
– Thanks…..Carol, Iowa
I absolutely love having the Tea in Texas magazine on-line. In today's era, if it isn't on-line, I usually don't make time to read it.
Thanks, Pat Aguirre-Flynn
Thank you so much for supporting our 2008 Herb Day Symposium with donated issues. Many folks requested the words to the poem, "I Need My Tea". Lois Jean Howard has kindly agreed to share her complete poem on our website www.herbsociety-stu.org Need My Tea
For tea is our comfort,
Our solace in life.
Each cup will bring gladness
And wipe away strife
I love my tea
It comforts me
Hope you feel a smile coming on, as you take a soothing sip of your own tea. Enjoy!
-Benée Curtis, The Herb Society of America South Texas Unit
Wow!!!! Finally I just picked up a copy of the first issue at Rice Epicurean on Post Oak Lane on my lunch break. I am very impressed, and will share my copy (may even pick up more copies tomorrow) with my chapter of the Red Hat Society and my friends in the Houston Hat Net. Thank you so much!
-Marie Christopher
I had a customer coming by Thursday afternoon and I gave her the "Tea" magazine. Her daughter collects tea cups nd she has one for her daughter for Christmas. She was thrilled and was going to give her the magazine with the tea up! I'm sure they will make memories at all the shops in Central Texas.
-Cara Sliva, caterer
Lovely… my guests are always inquiring of where to take tea. This is a perfect guide for them… Well done. TEAinTEXAS is well received, we need more!
-Tracy, The Houstonian Spa & Club Concierge
This afternoon I joined three friends at my favorite tea room Serenitea in the Sugar Land area (ad on page 3 March 07). On the way out
I picked up your new magazine Tea in Texas and wanted to write to say THANK YOU! I thoroughly enjoyed
the magazine and all the information and beautiful pictures inside. It truly was a treat to sit down and read it including every single advertisement.
Now I have many new places to visit and appreciate having this as a resource. I look forward to the next issue and wish you the very
best with this venture. I know there are other tea enthusiasts like me out there.

Summer is halfway through, and usually by the time August comes around, we can expect camera announcements to start pouring out. However, this year's PMA trade show has been moved from Fall 2011 to Jan 2012, which might affect some of the new product developments and announcements. Anyways, the rumor mill is alive and kicking, let's see what the latest fuss is all about…
What may be sad news to some (although still just a rumor of course) is that successor of the 5D line will not come until next year…
- February 2012 earliest announcement date for the 5DIII
- 5D line might be split in two (advanced video vs still models)
- New camera might be slotted between 5D and 1D lines
- EF mount video camera in the works, slated for mid 2012
- New flagship flash with built-in radio technology
- 1DV will mark the amalgamation of the 1D and 1Ds lines
This release date rumor doesn't much sense to me, considering this is after PMA, but we will see. This is the first "CR2″ rumor in quite some time on the Canon Rumors website. The flash rumor is especially interesting for a company like us who deals in flash technology. There's also this incredible chess game consisting of Canon and Nikon lenses.
Things are looking a little more concrete in Nikon-land:
- August 24th confirmed for several press events (2 DSLRS rumored)
- GPS to be re-introduced to Coolpix cameras
- New P7100 will pick up a swivel-screen
- A new mysterious telephoto lens has been spotted in the wild
- Nikon mirrorless mount spotted and removed online
Can't wait until the end of summer to see what pans out!

Bill Ackman Announces 30.9% Stake in Platform Specialty Products
Posted by: Holly LaFon (IP Logged)
Date: January 27, 2014 03:50PM
On Jan. 23, Pershing Square founder Bill Ackman (Trades, Portfolio) disclosed ownership of 33,333,332 shares, or 30.9% ownership, of Platform Specialty Products (PAH). The 13G filing came on the same day the company began trading on the New York Stock Exchange and requested to cancel its former listing on the London Stock Exchange. His holding consists of 29,166,665 common shares and 12,500,001 warrants to purchase an additional 4,166,667 common shares, and makes him the company's largest institutional shareholder.
Platform Specialty Products was formerly a shell company based in the Virgin Islands that held its IPO on the London Stock Exchange in May 2013 and was seeking to acquire a target company. Its board decided to switch exchanges when the company acquired MacDermid Inc., a Miami high-tech chemicals maker whose products are used in the electronics, metal and plastic plating, graphic arts and offshore oil production and drilling industries. The company made the transaction in October for $1.8 billion and changed its name from Platform Acquisition Holdings PLC (LSE:PAH).
Ackman owned a stake in the company of similar size before it shifted stock exchanges.
The acquired company produced $742 million in sales and $180 million in adjusted EBITDA for the year ended Sept. 30, 2013, with a gross margin of 51.0% and $148 million in free cash flow. The newly formed company has a market cap of $1.08 billion.

Color Me…Something
A White Girl and the "N" Word
When I was in elementary school in 1970's Brooklyn, NY (maybe third grade?) a kid (who was white) told me I had "n*gger lips."

Maybe I looked confused or maybe I tried to be cool about it. I was seven or eight. I was also kinda socially awkward and, frankly, just happy to be getting some attention from a peer - that much I do reme … [Read more...]

Walmart — 16 Things You Won't See in U.S. Stores
Brace yourself: 16 Items They Only Sell at Chinese Walmarts:
My dream is to go to China (and Vietnam and Japan and Thailand) and to eat my way across the country, but this is giving me second thoughts. It's also giving me second thoughts about how we treat animals. Ugh.
More info and photos at the link above.
America's Gulag — Bagram Airbase
The news here in the U.S. is so bad it makes me want to take my head off and set it down, but it's my duty as a citizen of the world to put it back on for a second and take this in:
A US appeals court has refused to give prisoners at an American military base in Afghanistan the same legal right to challenge their imprisonment as detainees held at Guantanamo Bay.
The three-judge panel on Friday sided with the Obama administration, ruling that US courts do not have jurisdiction over the legal petitions by the prisoners at the Bagram Air Base in Afghanistan and ordered that their cases be dismissed.
The administration Barack Obama, the US president, took the same legal position as the administration of his predecessor, George Bush, arguing that detainees at Bagram have no right to have their cases heard in federal court in Washington.
US District Judge John Bates last year rejected that argument and ruled three detainees at Bagram who sued the US government could proceed with their bid to win their freedom.
But the appeals court reversed his ruling in a unanimous decision.
When I was a kid, a U.S. military base was thought of as sacrosanct — as sacrosanct as U.S. soil. Prisoners held at those bases were given the same rights as prisoners held in U.S. because, essentially, they entered the U.S. when they entered the base.
I remember being so proud of that — so proud we treated prisoners well — that they were read their rights and they had access to lawyers and trials. I thought that was what our country was about — the right to be presented with charges, to face an accuser and to have a trial by a jury your peers. You know, law and order.
Alas, not anymore. Now we have gulags where prisoners will potentially languish forever.
Who is Jack Conway?
Could there be any clearer evidence that there is no such thing as the "liberal media?" Why isn't Jack Conway, Rand Paul's Democratic opponent, the talk of the town instead of Paul? Heck, I had no idea what the guy looked like, what his voice sounded like or what his views were until I saw this.
Yep. I'm still lookin' for that ahem, supposedly omnipresent, "liberal media."
Rand Paul — Speak From the Heart About Your Weird, Alienating Beliefs
Hey Rand Paul, don't weasel out of your appearance on Sunday's Meet the Press:
There are a whole lotta situations where if Rand Paul has to describe his beliefs in detail, his beliefs are gonna sound really weird and alienating. And I think Rand Paul knows that and that's why he's trying so hard not to describe his own beliefs in plain English. And that is the part that really bothers me. It's not even the ideological stuff so much as the craven, weasely, insulting-our-intelligence, non-answer-giving, cynical, political hackiness of that performance. It's that this candidate who's supposed to be the alternative to politics as usual, when push comes to shove, would rather give the same ol' weasely, political non-answers than show the courage of his convictions and speak from the heart about his weird, alienating beliefs.
UPDATE: Paul did indeed pull out of the MTP interview, one of only three "major candidates" to do so in the 63-year history of the show, according to Keith Olbermann.
Cops in Louisiana — Protecting BP — Keeping Reporters Away From Oil Spill

Rand Paul Trying to Cancel Sunday Appearance on Meet the Press?
I'm reading on Twitter that Rand Paul is trying to cancel a scheduled appearance on Sunday's Meet the Press. So, have his handlers told him to stay away from all the outlets other than Fox (where he'll get softball questions)? Is he actually afraid of beltway boy David Gregory, who kisses politicians' ass as well as anyone? Is he so incapable of handling himself in public that hiding out is preferable? Or, is he such a wingnut radical that he doesn't want anyone to know what he really thinks?
Curious, indeed.

Annual bird census begins at five ranges under Chilika FD
Published on By prameyanews7 (author)
Bhubaneswar: The annual census of migratory birds at Chilika Lake began this morning by the wildlife wing of the Forest Department.
Enumerators had been provided training on methods of counting yesterday. Teams involving forest and wildlife personnel have been engaged to enumerate birds, both country and foreign fowls, said the officials.
Enumeration will be done in all five ranges, Ramba, Satapada, Nuapada, Balugaon and Tangi under the Chilika forest division, they added.
Winged guests from places as far off as the Caspian Sea, Lake Baikal, remote parts of Russia, central and southeast Asia, Ladakh and the Himalayas descend on Chilika every winter for feeding and roosting.
Last year, over 8.58 lakh migratory birds have thronged the Asia's largest blackish water lake against 7.61 lakh in 2015-16 and 7.19 lakh in the preceding winter.

News Release
Cisco Chairman John Morgridge to Address Business Ethics at Duke's Fuqua School
November 10, 2004
RALEIGH-John Morgridge, chairman of Cisco Systems, will discuss ethical issues facing Corporate America in a speech Thursday, Nov. 11 at Duke University's Fuqua School of Business.
"Ethics is an important part of leadership education. We must consciously strengthen the link between leadership and ethics. In our view, leadership without ethics is dangerous, while ethics without leadership can be ineffective," commented Sanyin Siang, managing director of the Fuqua/Coach K Center of Leadership & Ethics. We are pleased that John Morgridge will be sharing his perspectives and experiences to this important discussion."

In his role as Chairman, Morgridge dedicates his time to Cisco's education and government initiatives. He also teaches part-time at Stanford University 's Graduate School of Business and speaks regularly on entrepreneurialism and management strategies at corporations and universities around the world.
This talk is especially addressed to Duke graduate and undergraduate students and a select group of business leaders. It is sponsored by the Fuqua/Coach K Center of Leadership & Ethics, the Kenan Institute for Ethics, the Association for Corporate Growth, and the Long View Leadership Initiative of the Self Knowledge Symposium.
Patti Gillenwater, CEO of Elinvar and President of the RTP Chapter of ACG, adds, "John Morgridge's record with Cisco, and the stories he has to share about maintaining an ethical culture within a rapidly growing company, are exactly what business leaders need to learn from today. We are excited to be a part of this important conversation."

The Spanish national soccer team has arrived in Washington for final preparations ahead of the World Cup, a week-long stay culminating with Saturday afternoon's friendly against El Salvador at FedEx Field.
What you need to know about La Furia Roja's visit to the nation's capital and the doubleheader with D.C. United in Landover:
1. The full 23-man World Cup squad traveled, featuring 16 players from the 2010 championship in South Africa.
2. Why are they here instead of back home? A taste of humidity to prepare for Brazil, the opportunity to play a neutral-site match, less public scrutiny and a substantial payday from game promoters. Several Brazilian-bound teams have chosen to train in the United States. England, for instance, is in Miami and Portugal selected the New York area.
3. Spain was supposed to practice for three days at Catholic University, but field conditions were not up to standard, so organizers scrambled late last week and reached a deal to use RFK Stadium's main field. EventsDC, which manages RFK and other facilities, accommodated the late request. Although unusual to practice for multiple days in a large stadium, the field is in fine shape, the structure provides a more private and secure setting than a college campus, and the location is closer to the team hotel. D.C. United will conduct training as it usually does at the RFK training grounds next to Lot 7.
4. Spain's practices at RFK are closed to the public. However, organizers are looking into the possibility of open sessions for both El Salvador and Spain on Friday afternoon at FedEx Field. A ticket to Saturday's game would also gain access to Friday's practices. Fans would not be able to purchase tickets to watch the practice sessions only. Again, nothing has been finalized. We'll keep you posted.
5. The latest ticket count for Saturday's doubleheader is 48,000. Capacity is 79,000. Organizers are hoping for a late uptick in advance sales and a decent walk-up by the Salvadoran community, which typically buys on the day of matches. It's not a cheap event: Remaining tickets begin at $47.35, including fees — and that price category doesn't include a seat ("upper level standing"). The lower level sideline seats go for $106.75.
6. The Spain-El Salvador match will kick off at 4 p.m. United, which is two points out of first place in MLS's Eastern Conference, will face the Crew in a regular season game at 6:30. Only one ticket is required to witness both matches. Univision will show the first game. Comcast SportsNet/Washington will handle the MLS affair.
7. Spain is staying in the city. At this time, the hotel identity is not for public consumption. Once the team is settled and the traveling media horde begins reporting, the location will inevitably filter out. Rest assured, Xavi and the boys are not staying at the Howard Johnson Inn on New York Avenue. UPDATE: The Spanish federation has posted the hotel on its website: Mandarin Oriental.
8. Spain arrived in the States with most of its World Cup supplies, which are being kept in storage until the delegation departs for Sao Paulo from BWI Airport on Sunday morning.
9. The delegation is scheduled to tour the White House on Thursday. They won't meet President Obama — he is in Europe.
10. Shakira, Spanish defender Gerard Pique's hip-shaking significant other, is scheduled to spend part of the week in Washington and attend the match. La La La.

I have it: 156 I had it: 39 I want it: 125

I have it: 156 I had it: 39 I want it: 125
The Green Tea collection starts with the first fragrance - Green Tea from 1999 and has added numerous editions so far, such as: Green Tea Lotus, Green Tea Lavender, Green Tea Revitalize, Green Tea Exotic etc.
The latest edition will calm you down with exotic tea notes decorated and refreshed with camellia flowers. It was inspired by ikebana, ancient Japanese art of arranging flowers and reveals the floral camellia scent which opens petal by petal as the scent develops.
Elizabeth Arden Green Tea Camellia bestows such aromas as bergamot, yuzu, lemon and green tea, adding accords of Chinese camellia, white peony, magnolia, jasmine, mandarin blossom and fruity plum nuance, resting on a base composed of musk, birch, moss and sweet spices.
Elizabeth Arden Green Tea Camellia is available as 50ml EDT and 100ml EDT. Green Tea Camellia was launched in 2011.
Perfume rating: 3.83 out of 5 with 179 votes.

At first very harsh citrus and green tea opening, which softens dramatically after 10 minutes.
Camelia, peony and jasmine blend in with the green tea note harmoniously and create a soft, "creamy" floral perfume. There's some subtle fruityness to be discovered, but it doesn't turn the whole composition into a fruity perfume at all.
The green tea note disappears at this stage, leaving behind a fresh creamy floral impression.
In the summer I can see this being used in the evening.
Longevity quite good for a perfume of the EA Green Tea line.
Despite the lengthy list of notes for this fragrance, all I smell is white flowers with the barest hint of citrusy tea in the background. As others have mentioned, it's reminiscent of a fresh, creamy soap or shampoo...that's not a bad thing, just what it reminds me of.
For me, definitely a like, not a love.
Even though bamboo and watermelon are not listed I can definitely smell them in this one.
My favourite after the cherry blossom in Green Tea line.
Fresh and floral.
Very unique and feminine.
Doesn't last long like the others in the range but worth it.
This was a little disappointment for me, I had a big hope for this perfume but it's a more masculine cheap cologne for my nose. I prefer original GT...
Light, airy but creamy floral. It's really pretty and very soothing to wear. The silage is fantastic and what I adore about this is that it gets more "creamy" as the hours go by. It's just lovely and is my favorite of all the Green Tea perfumes. I hope that Elizabeth Arden will never discontinue it.
When faced with a line-up of 5 of the EA Green Tea line what would you do? Well I was intrigued by the idea of the scent of camellia (our garden has always had a camellia or three but they have all been unscented).
I was so stunned by what I actually got. The sparkling citrus opening is fresh but not harsh. Then after a few minutes the soft floral notes come through.
It's sheer and subtle and perfect for a pick-me-up on a hot humid day.
Edit: it may be less tea-y than the others I have sniffed but I actually prefer it that way.
Got this as part of a 4pc Green Tea mini set for Christmas (great for traveling) and brought it with me to Hawaii on vacation (can't wear such light scents at home when it's -40 out).
I'd say this definitely smells less lemony than the original Green Tea, and most of the citrus and tea have been replaced with a light breezy floral.
I'm not a big floral person, most give me a headache, but this just smells like a really fresh shampoo or bodywash, and is great for warm weather. Makes you smell fresh and clean.
Very fresh and very aquatic and citrusy. I would best describe this perfume as iced lemon tea. Very innocent and best suited to the relaxed laid-back girl in spring and summer. Go for this if you are looking for something refreshing!
I cannot tell the difference between this one and Green tea Exotic. This one is pretty similar to Exotic one. Anyway, they are all refresh .
bought it in south africa-not available in mauritius-found its place in my summer fragrances' collection.light and lovely perfume.
my sis got this perfume free from contest.so i try use it.seriously its not my type of perfume.after a few hours,the smell is stink.its doesn't smell like green tea at all.sorry elizabeth arden.
Oh wow! Green tea and camellia-what a fabulous idea. The perfume begins on the classic EA Green Tea opening, within a few minutes the yuzu emerges and makes it a bit sweeter and sparkling.
Within about 15 minutes the camellia appears bringing in a clean and creamy floral arrangement. The musk and woody notes are whisper light, but present. The fragrance does have good projection and lasted around 6 hours without having to reapply. One of my favorites of the Green Tea line. Rating 8 out of 10. Suitable for office, casual, spring and summer wear.
Extraordinarily clean and smooth citrus aromatic! Absolutely perfect for sweltering heat and humidity. A sparkling opening of fresh citric purity embraced by an elegantly light and smooth green tea accord folds out like an elegant origami crane into an exquisitely blended heart of camellia, white peony, magnolia, clean jasmine, and mandarin blossom. A tantalizingly fine base of delicate spices, woods, moss, and white musk sustains this balanced composition which leaves wispy tendrils of zen-like tea ceremony freshness in its trail. No acridity, bitterness, or overdone sourness here to spoil the perfect serenity. Tranquil, uncluttered summer refinement.
OMG I love love love this its crisp unique refreshing yet elegant.I am loving this so much must get this soon.A Swedish magazine rated it with 5 stars a FBW must have for me.
refreshing scent i wear it all the time
it really smells like camellia, I think that camellia is the only one note which I can smell, but it is not rich and luxurious, it is cheap camellia scent from drug store
sounds nice, must have it
Oh finally you got this one in the database! I've had the chance (and luck) to try it at the airport just the other day!I love all the green tea line, and this one is just amazing! Starts fresh and then becomes such a soft, slightly sweet, floral! And it seemed to last longer than any other EA green teas! My second favourite after the green tea tropical. I'm gonna get it next time i fly back, the price is very affordable as well!

Under the housing scheme, Chief Minister DV Sadananda Gowda announced an increase in subsidy of Rs 75,000 in that sector. The state government will also provide the per unit cost for construction of houses to Rs 1 lakh.
On the other hand, SN Jayaram, Commissioner of Karnataka Housing Board (KHB) has considered the project as a progressive one and said, "The budget has gone a long way to ensure housing is affordable to the economically weaker sections of the society and to a large extent it provides impetus to the scheme."
The experts has estimated that the low-housing scheme will not support the housing sector much. In the positive move it has been found that there is a reduction in the stamp duty from 6% to 5% on conveyances and sales deeds, that will boost to the real estate industry.
Meanwhile, over 1,500 plots in four regions have been already distributed to the low-income groups by the government under the Nanna Mane Yojana and has considered to expand this scheme to more areas in this fiscal year.

Remembering Mira: Palestinian Warrior for Peace
Remembering Mira
As the country, and indeed, the world, mourns the tragic and unnecessary loss of so many young lives to the Newtown School Massacre, many peace activists and advocates for non-violence around the world are mourning another loss… the loss of a tireless advocate for peace and reconciliation, Mira Dabit.
I was sound asleep in my grandson's bed when my cell phone woke me on December 15th at 12:30 a.m. Slightly annoyed at being awakened, I answered. It was my partner from Searching for Occupy, Denise Valdez. She was crying. No. She was sobbing. For a few moments, I listened to her crying. Then, she managed to blurt out, "Crystal, I have some bad news…" A pause. A sob. "Mira is dead."
