My husband absolutely loves scones and I have bought these on occasions. They come in a pack of 10 - too many in my opinion. They should make it 6 bigger ones. They have a good amount of sultanas in them, but they do tend to stick to the roof of your mouth, although my husband likes to eat them plain with no butter/jam or anything on them! I do not like them myself. I prefer the better quality scones with some butter on. I suppose they are OK for a quick and cheap snack though, but personally I would pay a bit more and get the better ones.
I like a scone, usually make my own because they're easy and I can put as many raisins or sultanas in as I want. I do however buy them and on quite a few occasions I just pick up Everyday Value from Tesco. You get 10 in a pack which costs 50p they used to be 30p so they've gone up but hasn't everything.......These really are small, however price wise they are still considerably cheaper than the other scones, having six per pack and starting at a pound.
The 10 scones come in a wrapper with purple piccies on which now differs from the above picture, it's had the upgrade. Ten sounds loads but they weigh only 41g each that's almost half that of Tesco Finest (which I don't like by the way).
Each one contains 140 calories and that's without the butter as opposed to Tesco Finest at 255 calories- ordinary Tesco own brand being somewhere between the two in price, size and calories but edging more towards Finest.
The scones are lightly baked with a dusting of flour, no glaze but I prefer that. They need to have a long sell by date when I buy them otherwise they're dry, hard and crumbly- to be fair they're pretty hard and crumbly even then. They keep okay for a few days once opened though.
Taste wise they're not bad they just taste like scones, texture wise they're not great. I don't find them overly sweet but would prefer more fruit as there aren't many sultanas (7%). I think these scones are more home baked authentic simply because they're not over flavoured or glazed.
I do buy them but after reading my own review I'll give them a miss next time and buy flour to make my own........
3 Stars because they taste okay but the size and dry texture isn't too great- I'd rather Tesco did them as 6 larger scones than ten small.
Tesco value scones are good value, they are 49 p now for a pack of 10 and have gone up since the last reviews were done it seems.
I love scones and alternate between making my own, and buying the 3 different levels of Tesco scone. There is a pack of 6 scones for £1 from Tesco which are more or less the same as these value ones but a bit less crumbly and a bit softer.
These are the value scones from Tesco not the 6 for £1 ones. These ones are best heated under the grill with hot butter, or served with lots of jam and cream.
As they are so cheap I tend to get through them quite quickly, but they last for several days at least after opening. As the plastic top rips apart completely when you open it, I put the whole thing in a plastic carrier bag or a food bag.
I always put margarine on them, as I don't have butter at the moment, but I admit butter tastes better. They are a bit dry and crumbly on there own, but with marg and jam and cream they are a great snack. I tend to eat them like biscuits, and have them while I watch tv.
I think these are good value and they would suit any use except maybe a formal dinner where you would need to get someone to make them for you.
One thing I buy regularly in my local Tesco store is these sultana scones which cost me 33p for ten of them and they are great for freezing which is great for me living alone!
The Packaging:
The packaging if these is very cheap, flimsy and cheap looking really with the scones in a see-through plastic tray and lined up in two lines of five and over that there is a see through plastic, easy to tear off packet with red, blue and white writing and colour blocks on it and we are told that they are Tesco 'Value' 10 Sultana Scones and that they are suitable for Vegetarians, suitable for home freezing and there is an at a glance nutritional chart displayed. On the back of the packet other information listed includes ingredients and allergy advice, a full nutritional chart is given and contact details for Tesco are listed.
The Scones:
Well of course we get ten of these in a pack and all are about the same thickness which is pretty thick and they are round in shape, slightly golden to give a baked appearance and you can see some of the sultana pieces poking through.
These are a real pain to cut in half even with a really sharp knife they seem to crumble and fall apart really easily! They taste ok which I will come onto in a second but appearance wise....well I wouldn't be able to offer them to guest as they look a right mess once you pop some butter and/or jam in them or something!
Taste wise though well they are nice enough. The scone itself is made from wheat flour (as well as a few other ingredients of course!) and are simply rather plain with a hint of sugary sweetness to them which is entirely natural. The main of the flavour comes from the sultanas which are moist, plentiful and again add a natural juicy sweetness to them.
Not dried out and versatile (you can add a variety of fillings to these if you want to), these are a great economical purchase to tickle my taste-buds with however like I mentioned previously because they are so crumbly and messy to eat I wouldn't offer these to visitors and the likes!

My boys are aged 2 and 4 and are already absolute gannets with legs so hollow that i find it really hard to keep them going cheaply. I walk in the kitchen and it looks like a swarm of locusts got there first.
I spotted these in Tesco while browsing the bread products. I am quite partial to a scone myself, and at a bargainous 33p i decided these were worth a try as i could always feed them to the birds if they weren't great.
You get for your 33p 10 scones, sat in a plastic tray, and wrapped in plastic. Upon opening the plastic, the scones are all sat waiting for you. There is a freshly baked appetising smell.
The boys quite like these scones with a bit of butter, and then a little dab of jam. The scone is about an inch in thickness and about 2.5 inches in diameter. Cut in half it makes a yummy little snack or pudding for my 2. My 4 year old tells me he should have 4 because he is 4, so i guess that is a good recommendation that he would like more.
I have just sampled 2 of these myself this evening in the interest of a fair review.
I bought my pack today, so the scones i am eating are very fresh. They have about 4 or 5 sultanas each. The sultanas are evenly spread through the mix, and are a plump and tasty treat when you get one. When i cut my scone in half, they were a little crumbly round the edges as they were so fresh. I spread marg on each half which helped somewhat to hold it all together until it disappeared completely.
The taste was a mix of buttery scone, and sweet sultanas, and was very satisfying as a snack for me.
The pack of 10 have a best before date of the 9th of February but there is no way they will last that long in my house.
I am trying to save pennies at the moment, and with these scones i find i can give the kids a little treat without breaking the bank. Good job.
In an ideal world i would be some Earth mother type who could whisk up a batch of scones while doing jigsaws, reading, washing, tidying, etc. But, for just over 3p a scone, i don't see much point in using my time and resources in this way when these are a perfectly satisfactory alternative.
My only complaint is i find it quite hard to open the outer plastic layer without ripping it completely. Then the scones might go stale if they are not eaten quickly. Lets face it, not the worlds biggest problem when they will all disappear within a couple of days anyway.
If you are looking to buy a scone, save your pennies and buy these. A very tasty treat that doesn't taste basic.
I have tried a few varieties of scones of late and haven't been that impressed. I was paying in the region of £2.00 per pack .
I spotted the Tesco Value option whilst picking up some crumpets. It was of course the price that tempted me. 33p for 10 scones! That's just over 3 pence each! Definitely worth the risk!
The scones are sold in a plastic tray, inside a clear plastic sleeve displaying the Tesco Value logo.
It is easily opened although I have found that once it is, it is quite difficult to replace the tray without splitting the bag - I tend to re-home mine in a tin.
There is a slight buttery aroma if you place your nose close enough and that would be very close! I have noticed that the product tends to have quite a long shelf life, with a long best before date, the packet I have in front of me has 10 days.
This is a bonus, however, when the scones are this fresh they are fairly difficult to cut, breaking apart and crumbling from below.
The scones are surprisingly tasty, not too sweet and do taste quite buttery, although I can't see ANY butter in the ingredients! The sultanas are a little sparse, I would estimate a maximum of four per scone ( I should really have counted during my last scone!). They are also quite soft although I wouldn't say moist.
Each scone contains 140kcal and 3.2g of fat - quite low, unfortunately it is usually the toppings that hike this up. I enjoy mine with butter and jam and occasionally marmalade - quite a refreshing change.
The scones can be frozen although I haven't done so as they are generally eaten prior to the best before date - I've eaten a few after this date and they have tasted absolutely fine, if not a little stale (more butter required - oops!).
Compared to other mass manufactured shop bought scones this product will adequately meet your needs and may well exceed them! Of course, you can't beat home made or from the little bakers round the corner.
I am a big fan of scones, and although I make my own biscuits, cakes, and so on, I don't seem to be very good at making nice scones. I don't know why, but when I do they're always just 'ok' not good you know. Anyway, for this reason, I do cheat and buy them instead sometimes - ok reasonably frequently if I'm honest - well they are very tasty!
Anyhow, this particular scone is cheap too. 33p for a pack of 10 scones is a price that I just couldn't make them at no matter how hard I tried. Fat and Calorie content is about the same as home made would be at 140 cals per 100g and 3.2g of fat for the same amount. The only difference is that these have some preservatives in. - Actually, the ingredients list isn't bad really, disodium diphosphate as well as bicarb as a raising agent, whey powder where I'd use milk, potassium sorbate as a preservative and (the one I'm least keen on), mono- and Di-Glycerides of Fatty Acids - an emulsifier. Other than that they're as you'd use if you were baking at home really.
Now I know most people think of scones as something to eat with cream and jam, or butter and jam and that's fine if it's what you like, but personally I prefer mine with something savoury even though technically these are a sweet scone. So I have mine with either just a bit of butter, or a bit of butter and a tiny bit of marmite (well Asda yeast extract actually but you know what I mean). I love the combination of the sweetness of the scone and the saltiness of the marmite combined, for me it's lovely though I'm imagining a few of you are going ewwwww right now aren't you!
As I say this is a sweet scone, it's firmer on the outside, and very soft and slightly crumbly in texture inside, and I like to warm mine lightly in the microwave first to simulate that just out of the oven warmth that's so lovely in a fresh baked scone. I'll be honest, I have had much better scones - my mum bakes lovely scones and even many bought ones are nicer, but all things considered, these are pretty good, and they taste like scones. Even better, they're only 3.3p each, and for me that pretty much does the trick.
They're also suitable for home freezing so if you're not someone who likes to eat too many at once, you can open the pack and freeze them in pairs or something so that you can eat them over time. Wouldn't be worth it in our house, they get eaten far too fast for that. Actually on the keeping score, they do keep for a good week or more in our breadbin even when they're open, so those preservatives really do work so I guess that's something.
Overall, these are good for when it's just us and we want a nibble of something. I don't think I'd be content to serve them up at Sunday high tea for that I'd probably want something a little better quality, but for cheap and cheerful they do the trick nicely.

PHILADELPHIA – The University of Pennsylvania men's and women's swimming and diving teams will be back in action at Harvard this weekend. The Quakers will partake in their second-consecutive Ivy League tri-meet on Saturday, swimming against Brown and Harvard at Blodgett Pool. For the first time this season, Penn will be streamed live on the Ivy League Digital Network. To watch Saturday's meet, follow this link.
About the Quakers (Men)
Penn put together a sweep of Yale and Dartmouth last Saturday at Sheerr Pool. The Quakers swept the relay events, and tacked on seven individual victories. Most notably, Eric Schultz nabbed a pair of wins in the 50 and 100 free, while fellow senior Chris Swanson shattered a 36-year old Sheerr Pool record in the 1,000 free. Swanson defeated the field by over three seconds, touching the wall in 9:11.41.
Michael Wen, Justin Yu, Thomas Dillinger, Kevin SU also picked up wins on Saturday.
Wen took home the 100-fly crown with a time of 49.26, while Yu raced to the top time in the 100 breast (57.07). Dillinger swam to the crown in the 200 IM (1:50.54.), while Su was victorious in the 200 free (1:39.64).
Su, Wen, Schultz, and Dillinger capped off the day by winning the 400-free relay. The Quakers registered a winning time of 3:02.5.
Last Season
The Quakers split with Harvard and Brown last season in Providence, notching the win over the Bears. Schultz posted the top time in the 100 free, while Swanson swept the distance events. Sophomore Alex Peterson finished second to Swanson in both the 1,000 and 500.
It was similar situation for these three squads at the Ivy League championships as well -- where Harvard placed second, Penn finished fourth, and Brown came in seventh.
About the Quakers (Women)
The Quakers split with Dartmouth and Yale during last weekend's Ivy tri-meet. The Red and Blue defeated Dartmouth (234-66), but fell just short to Yale (195-105).
Rochelle Dong led the way for the Quakers, racing to wins in the 100 fly (55.18) and 50 free (23.25). She was also part of a victory for Penn in the 400-free relay. Joined by Mary Whiting, Kim Phan, and Virginia Burns, the foursome compiled a winning time of 3:30.23.
Freshman Nancy Hu picked up the Quakers' other individual victory on the day, snagging the title in the 200 fly (2:01.79).
Other strong events for the Quakers included the 200 free and 100 breast. Burns and Madison Visco finished 2-3 in the freestyle, while Haley Wickham and Ellie Grimes placed 2-3 in the 100 breast.
Last Season
The Quakers also split with Harvard and Brown last season at the Katherine Moran Coleman Aquatics Center. Penn recorded triumphs in the 200 breast and 100 fly. Ellie Grimes led Penn to a 1-2-3 finish in the 200 breast, while Dong picked up the win in the 100 fly.
The Red and Blue finished between the Crimson and the Bears at last year's Ivy League championships as well. Like the men, the women's squad also placed fourth, while Harvard finished second and Brown sixth.

Ever since I can remember I've always got along with boys over girls; although I'm generally agreeable and I get along with both genders just fine, girls don't really seek friendship with me, while boys have always been perfectly fine with just hanging out or coming over to my house and sitting in my living room playing video games together.
Me and my boyfriend have known each other for 3 years now; he's also my first boyfriend and we've gotten over every relationship hurdle thus far, except for this one -- all of my friends are guys, and because of this I never hang out with anyone anymore.
It's not like he tells me that I CAN'T hang out with them, but I can tell deep down he doesn't want me to. I'm a considerate person (not just of him, but of all people I associate myself with) and I don't want to make him feel like he's less important to me or that I might cheat on him, but it's rather difficult not being around anyone socially.
To give some more details I'm in college and he's going into the military and starting basic training soon. He works 6 days out of the week while I work 3-4 and I live 2 cities away from him but we're both military brats and we're used to distance. I'm rather introverted, but I still need to socialize occasionally, and lately the only way I can fill up on that is by going to dinner with my mom and her coworkers, and mentally translating their conversations into English is draining. I'm really at a loss as to what to do to get my fill of personal interaction without hurting my boyfriend's feelings.
Most Helpful Girl
This is something that you really need to discuss with your boyfriend. Explain your feelings about this situation to him the same way you've done so here on GAG. Honestly, simply, calmly, and rationally. He should be able to understand where you're coming from. A good compromise would be if you hang out with your guy friends in groups (as opposed to being isolated with only one or two of them).00|00|0
It's definitely a reoccurring topic between the two of us; he's only been in one serious relationship before me and she cheated on him multiple times, so I understand that he has trust issues. However after the first half year of us dating he seemed to have moved on from those issues, so he really doesn't have an argument against me hanging out with my guy friends, but I just want to avoid hurting him if I can.
That's what I've tried, but I'd say that that makes him worry even more. Since my family prefers that I only have one or two friends over at my house I can't have a group of friends at my house, so we end up going out and seeing movies, eating out, etc. He feels more comfortable knowing that I'm at my home with my veteran dad peering out of his office door to make sure that nothing is going on, hehe.
I appreciate the feedback, and I'll definitely try talking to him again about this when I see him next week. :)
Thanks for MH :)
I understand your boyfriend's concerns (especially due to his previous relationship). And I can also relate to you because I also have many guy friends whom I associate with regularly. The two of you will likely work out the situation, you both sound like reasonable people, and if your boyfriend is as considerate of you as you are of him, then it will hopefully be easy to come to a nice compromise/middle ground.

In the first part of our discussion on the Book of Common Prayer and work, we discussed the "Prayer for Every Man in his Work" and the implications of the Fall and the Cross on how our work is meant to glorify God. In the second part, we talked about tearing down the false compartmentalization of our lives by looking at how our "bounden duty" in the Offices of Instruction and in Mass bring our worship into our work. Today we'll look at the third and final passage from the Prayer Book, "A General Intercession."
Read our introduction and overview of Vocations (Vocations 1) here
Read part one of our discussion on the Book of Common Prayer and Work (Vocations 2) here
Read part two of our discussion on the Book of Common Prayer and Work (Vocations 2) here
So far the prayer book has looked at the ideal with respect to our vocation and work and has offered up teaching and prayer that can help us move toward that ideal. In today's passage, we see some of the harsh reality that comes with living in a broken, fallen, and sinful world:
O God, at whose word man goeth forth to his work and to his labour until the evening; Be merciful to all whose duties are difficult or burdensome, and comfort them concerning their toil. Shield from bodily accident and harm the workmen at their work. Protect the efforts of sober and honest industry, and suffer not the hire of the labourers to be kept back by fraud. Incline the heart of employers and of those whom they employ to mutual forbearance, fairness, and good-will. Give the spirit of governance and of a sound mind to all in places of authority. Bless all those who labour in works of mercy or in schools of good learning. Care for all aged persons, and all little children, the sick and the afflicted, and those who travel by land or by sea. Remember all who by reason of weakness are overtasked or because of poverty are forgotten. Let the sorrowful sighing of prisoners come before thee; and according to the greatness of thy power, preserve thou those that are appointed to die. Give ear unto our prayer, O merciful and gracious Father, for the love of thy dear Son, our Saviour Jesus Christ. Amen (BCP, Family Prayer: A General Intercession, pp. 599-600).
The first thing that immediately stands out in this prayer is that we are acknowledging how sin has corrupted work and working conditions. Like anyone else in this world, Christians can be overworked and underpaid. Work can be overly difficult, tedious, and burdensome. Accidents happen. Fraud is a reality. Employers exploit their workers and workers cheat their employers. Education and "works of mercy" are undervalued. The aged, the young, the sick, and widows can be vulnerable to people taking advantage of them. The poor and prisoners are forgotten. The government can (and often is) marred by corruption of one sort or another. In short, things are a mess!
But the prayer doesn't leave us there. On the one hand, in facing this reality, we cry out to God, even as the Children of Israel cried out to him when they were enslaved in Egypt. And just as he heard their cry (Ex. 3:7-8), he hears our cry as well. In the Resurrection of Christ, we have the promise that we will one day rest from those labors and come to the Promised Land. Our Lord Jesus Christ is, indeed, the second Moses who rescues us from slavery. The most important part of this rescue mission is, of course, our justification and redemption from slavery to sin and the devil. But we will also ultimately be rescued from the brokenness, fallenness, and sinfulness of the world when he returns to fully establish his Kingdom on Earth in the final Resurrection. He will judge with righteousness the case of all those who have been wronged and will set everything right again. In J. R. R. Tolkien's The Lord of the Rings, the long-awaited returning King was described at his coronation: "ancient of days he seemed and yet in the flower of manhood; and wisdom sat upon his brow, and strength and healing were in his hands, and a light was about him (p. 6908)". How much more will this be true of Our Lord when he returns and gives justice!
On the other hand, the Church has long recognized that we have a duty as God's people to bring a taste of God's Kingdom into the broken world. In addition to evangelism, this has always taken the form of working to make the world a better place. In Ancient Rome, Christians protected abandoned and unwanted infants, spoke against abortion, and worked to end the brutal blood sports so common in those days. In America and England, Christians were at the forefront of the abolitionist movements to end the evils of slavery. Christians were at the forefront of movements to get legal equality and voting rights for women. Christians have always been great builders of schools, hospitals, and orphanages. In short, Christians have always wanted to end the evils and sufferings in this world in practical ways.
This principle also extends to business practices. In Ireland, for example, the Guinness family began their famous brewing company as a way to provide good employment their fellow Irishmen, alleviate the horrible poverty typical of the area, and to provide a drink that was healthier than the oft-polluted water or the oft-abused whiskey. To the Guinness family, this was part of their Christian duty, living out their vocational calling as Christian businessmen of means.
The Gospel calls the Christian employer to treat his workers as his brothers, with fairness, justice, and mercy. The Gospel also calls the Christian worker to treat his employer as his brother, working in a diligent and truthful manner. Furthermore, we all are to use our work as a way of living out the Gospel, both in living out its principles and in working for the kingdom.
What are some ways you've seen Christian vocation in action in the workplace?

Whenever you feel like you are such looser, just think about those creatures who steal from other travellers.
How pathetic can some people get. Stealing a cheap phone and cause you the trouble of loosing all phone numbers. what if you found a cellphone in a hostel lobby?
Have you ever taken things that don't belong to you? Hmmm, I just took a facial wash that has been sitting in the shower for 3 days. Sometimes, I try the shampoo or facial wash left by other travellers in the bathroom. In Christian morality standards, I am already a thief. I also pick coins (foreign currency) that are on the floor.
Whats the most expensive thing you've returned to the authorities. I was such a boyscout, when I returned a cellphone, I found in a subway in Tokyo. I have returned so many cellphones and lost a lot too.

Donnie Wahlberg Picked The Next President, It's Over Now
Just when it looked like Donald Trump might actually be coming close to getting his fantastically bronzed hands on the nuclear launch codes, Donnie Wahlberg broke his excruciating silence to finally lead America to a better choice: A Rubio/Fiorina ticket. Via Raw Story:
"Marco is a humble man who has not forgotten his roots, and he will fight to make sure that where you come from does not determine how far you can go. We need a leader like Marco to inspire a new Republican party and unite our nation, and I am proud to support him for President."
And here's his tweet endorsing Fiorina for VP, complete with HURR DURR BERNIE SANDERS SWEDEN DUUURRRRRRR!
#Rubio President#Carly VP#Jeb Sec Of State#Christie Atty General#Carson Surgeon Gen#Sanders Pres of Sweden#Trump Apprentice Season 13!

Since we already know Donnie Wahlberg is complete idiot (See: Jenny McCarthy, Marriage To), let's just go back into his Twitter and Instagram to see how well his views fit with a Rubio/Fiorina White House.

Summary: Backup quarterback Colin Kaepernick led the 49ers' second-team offense on a two-minute touchdown drive against the No. 2 defense with a combination of his arm and legs.
He dropped in a nice 30-yard pass to tight end Delanie Walker, who beat the coverage of safety Trenton Robinson. Then, Kaepernick ran it into the end zone from 15 yards out on a read-option play.
It was an up-and-down day for Kaepernick, whom cornerback Tramaine Brock intercepted in the red zone. At one point late in practice, Kaepernick badly misfired to a wide-open Brett Swain down the middle of the field, who had several steps on safety Mark LeGree.
But on the very next play, Kaepernick's throw 20 yards down the field was on target to tight end Konrad Reuland. Kaepernick has maintained the lead for the No. 2 job behind starter Alex Smith. Veteran Josh Johnson has not closed the gap with some inconsistent play of his own. Johnson threw an interception to Chris Culliver. Alex Smith also threw an interception, as Perrish Cox picked off a ball intended for Randy Moss.
Injury report: Receiver Michael Crabtree (right leg) went through individual drills for the first time since he was injured July 27. He did not take part in one-on-one or team drills.
Offensive lineman Jason Slowey sat out his second practice with an undisclosed injury.
Safety Dashon Goldson sustained a foot injury when he was cleated during warmup drills. He was held out of practice, but should return as early as Tuesday.
C.J. Spillman filled in for Goldson with the first-team defense.
Receiver Joe Hastings (right leg) and cornerback Curtis Holcomb also did not participate.
Running back Jewel Hampton (foot) is on the non-football injury list, while outside linebacker Darius Fleming (knee) is on the physically-unable-to-perform list.
Offensive play of the day: Alex Smith lofted a nicely thrown 35-yard pass to Vernon Davis, who made an over-the-shoulder catch against rookie cornerback Deante' Purvis.
Defensive plays of the day:Outside linebacker Aldon Smith recorded would-be sacks on back-to-back plays against the first-team offense in a four-minute drill. Smith beat right tackle Anthony Davis for a sack on one play. He then chased down Alex Smith, who was rolling out on a third-and-12 play on the next snap.
Eye on reps: Nose tackle Isaac Sopoaga, who played 42 offensive snaps from scrimmage last season, was spotted for the first time on the other side of the ball. He motioned out of the backfield to catch a short touchdown pass from Alex Smith.
Rookie report: In a four-minute drill, which is designed to run out the clock, first-round draft pick A.J. Jenkins came up with a nice catch of a Kaepernick pass at the sideline against tight coverage of Deante' Purvis. The 49ers needed 5 yards on a third-down play.
The play netted 6 yards. The 49ers went into their "victory formation" for the next two plays to run out the clock.
Notable: Cornerback Cory Nelms was allowed to leave practice to watch his girlfriend, T'erea Brown, qualify for the finals of the 400-meter hurdles at the Olympics.
Quotable: "Kendall Hunter is having an exceptional offseason and exceptional camp. Ahmad Brooks has been fantastic all offseason, all camp. . . I don't know if he (Brooks) doubled, tripled or quadrupled his salary, but this is the best shape he's been in. People say it's the best offseason he's had. I think that speaks volumes about a guy, a person. Some people tend to go the other way when money enters the picture like that. I've been real impressed" -- 49ers coach Jim Harbaugh.
Next practice: The 49ers return to practice Tuesday from 2:30 to 5:10 p.m. None of the 49ers' practices in Santa Clara this summer are open to the general public due to the ongoing stadium construction.

Toby Jessel
Birthday Number 11
Toby Jessel is a male celebrity.
He was born on Wednesday July 11th 1934, in Bearsted, England,.
Toby Jessel is highly intuitive and creative. His mind thinks in pictures. He seems to draw information and ideas from out of the sky.
Toby's intuition is his gift, along with a powerful drive to know the Oneness of all things. Toby Jessel is so driven by spiritual pursuits that no matter what he does in life, the world of spirit and philosophy will be central to his daily behavior. Jessel feels linked with the larger universal forces, and nothing will change that.
He has a fine mind and keen insights, but these do not come as a result of logic or rational thought. Jessel is more likely to direct his life by inspiration, rather than by calculated reflections.
On some level, Toby Jessel knows that he is in the hands of destiny, and that he must surrender to the higher powers that shape his life. He is usually a late bloomer. His early and middle 30s tend to be years spent in apprenticeship and slow development. During this period, Toby can become frustrated with his progress, or the apparent lack of it.
Toby Jessel needs to develop faith. He is a highly charged person with much to do, but he must develop character and sound judgment before he begins to tap his true potential. Just as a tree needs roots to grow tall, so needs Toby Jessel to develop depth of character in order to begin to expand in the ways he desires and ultimately envision.
His highly developed intuition makes Toby a wonderful counselor, healer, or health practitioner. He has a gift for inspiring people. Many people admire Jessel without his knowing it. Toby is a visionary, and others sense his wisdom.
Toby Jessel is acutely sensitive and easily influenced by his surroundings. He loves beauty and harmony. He also craves social interaction and much attention. Toby can be very emotional, often experiencing extremes of happiness and sadness. He is usually too easily hurt. Jessel also gets depressed easily and feels the lack of confidence during times he is in a dark mood.
Despite his sensitivity, Toby Jessel possesses leadership abilities. He is modest, diplomatic and polite. He has also the ability to persuade, and can be quite forceful.
Toby Jessel's high sensitivity to others makes him compassionate, kind, and gentle. Toby has an opportunity for fame and success as long as he does not pursue either as his gods. Jessel needs to look for ways to help others and convey a larger message, with which he was blessed. This will bring Toby Jessel the material and social fruits he desires.
You and Toby
About Toby's Birthday number
Toby's day of birth is one of his four core numbers - the Life Path, Expression, and Heart's Desire being the other three. It is the least significant of the four core numbers, but perhaps the most finite, in that it reveals a specific ability Toby Jessel possesses in a marked degree.

Brewing Local: American-Grown BeerBy Stan Hieronymus
Explore Local Flavor Using Cultivated and Foraged Ingredients
Americans have brewed beers using native ingredients since pre-Columbian times, and a new wave of brewers has always been at the forefront of the locavore movement. Brewers use locally-grown, traditional ingredients as well as cultivated and foraged flora to produce beers that capture the essence of the place they were made. In Brewing Local, Stan Hieronymus examines the history of how distinctly American beers came about, visits farm breweries, and goes foraging for both plants and yeast to discover how brewers are using novel ingredients to create unique beers. The book introduces brewers and drinkers to the ways herbs, flowers, plants, trees, nuts, and shrubs flavor distinctive beers.

Hi! My name is Popcorn and for the first time I am in a place where I feel wanted. I won't talk about where I used to live, that is all behind me and I am going to keep that secret. But someone found me in the woods and the people who found me gave me to someone else who gave me to my Finding Shelter foster. The first, few days I was confused and scared and just didn't know what to do. I was so used to being unwanted and thrown away, how could I trust anyone again? Well, I'm glad I gave these people a try. They feed me good food, they have dogs who will play with me and they are patient. My foster mom is an awesome dog trainer and she knew just what to do to help me adjust and will help my new family and tell them everything about me! Like how I like to stretch out in front of a heater on cold days and how I like toys and how I LOVE to play. If you are an awesome adult who wants a fun and spunky little girl, maybe I am the perfect companion for you. I am excited to be wanted forever and loved like never before.

I am curious as to know what guys AND girls (if your gay) look for in a girl.
Most Helpful Guy
5,7+ blue eyes, not a feminist, has values. Doesn't go round having sex with every guy that she meets.11|00|0
I am curious as to know what guys AND girls (if your gay) look for in a girl.
5,7+ blue eyes, not a feminist, has values. Doesn't go round having sex with every guy that she meets.
Have an opinion?
This would be my kind of woman:
I like confident and independent women who are not full of themselves. They don't necessarily need a man in their lives, but want one because they're not ultra feminists who believe that men are meaningless, unnecessary, or just obsessed with sports. Basically a girl with good perspective on life.
I don't have any perfect body type that I prefer. As long as she's not very short or very tall, and everything's proportional. Her height and weight create a normal BMI score and her breasts fit her body. Having a beautiful face is most important. That being smooth skin, deep eyes, great smile, good teeth, beautiful hair, etc.
I usually am more attracted to white girls. Someone who has good financial sense and knows how to keep what they earn. I don't care what their profession is. If you're mature and carry yourself with confidence and poise, I don't care your education level. Don't care what your sexual history is. Could have been with 100+ men or a virgin, as long as you're loyal to me. Hopefully someone within my age range. 21 +/- 4 years; that's not a hard rule though.
Funny how you began with "I don't have any perfect body type..." but then went into specifics on what you would prefer... even down to BMI score, but thank you for your opinion.

CRIMEFIGHTERS in Dorset have scooped more than £300,000 to help victims.
The Dorset Office of the Police and Crime Commissioner has been successful in its Competed Fund bids for £300,000 of Government funding.
Projects put forward for funding include a pilot scheme to help male victims of domestic abuse, new mental health worker posts and a programme to support child sex offence victims.
This Ministry of Justice grant award is part of a £12 million pot raised through offenders paying a 'victim surcharge' that PCCs have been able to bid against with the emphasis on innovative technologies and specialist services, to support victims of crime across the country.
The funding was announced today by Victims' Minister Damian Green.
Dorset PCC Martyn Underhill said: "I am delighted. This is fantastic news for Dorset. These grants strengthen and widen our work with victims.
"This will see a real improvement in victim care and help us to fill in the gaps where provision is lacking.
"For example, we will now be able to offer courses to male victims of domestic abuse and specialist counselling to child victims of domestic abuse. That is really exciting and will make a positive difference to many people's lives."
Chief Constable Debbie Simpson added: "I am extremely pleased Dorset has been successful in its bid. Supporting victims is at the heart of what we do and the projects funded by this grant will make even more of a difference."
Some examples of the projects the PCC will now commission in Dorset within the next financial year 2014/15 are:
- £100,000 for 2 Mental Health Outreach Workers and a Mental Health Coordinator
- £85,000 for a programme to support child victims of serious sexual offences
- £30,000 for Freedom Courses to support victims of domestic abuse – this will include a pilot scheme offering freedom courses or pattern changing courses to male Domestic Abuse victims
- £30,000 for special counselling for child witnesses of Domestic Abuse – this will include 1-1 creative therapeutic sessions for children
- £66,000 for specialist LGBT hate crime case workers in Cornwall, Devon, Dorset and Wiltshire. (the Dorset contribution will be £19,000 in financial year 2014/15)
Money to fund the schemes comes from additional receipts from offenders, raised through the Victim Surcharge and increased financial penalties such as Penalty Notices for Disorder.
This funding is in addition to a range of measures brought in by the Government to provide unprecedented support for victims, including the new and improved Victims' Code and pre-trial cross-examination for young and vulnerable witnesses.

Jaffaa Story
Jaffa is a full-fledged comedy entertainer, which has some dark and slap stick comedy elements. Brahmanandam's performance is the main highlight in the movie. Vennela Kishore's narration and dialogues, Anoop Rubens' music, Raja's camera work are its other attractions.
A few illogical sequences are drawback of the film. The movie has an interesting story, which seems to have been inspired from a real-life incident.

5: Uncle Majic the Hip Hop Magician - Just look at this. This is real. Okay, this one doesn't make me angry, but it makes me wonder how he can afford to keep making commercials. Who is watching this and thinking, "oh yeah, I'll pay him to come to my house."
4: ITT Tech - The ones that follow some guy who had no friends or future until he got an ITT Tech "degree" and is now successful and respected. The same commercial includes a disclaimer that ITT Tech credits will not transfer. An Associate's Degree from ITT Tech costs between $45,000 and $70,000, but barely increases job potential (especially in this college grad-saturated market), meaning ITT Tech grads will never get out from underneath their student loans. About 80,000 people a year attend ITT Tech. They've found half a dozen moderately successful grads to feature in commercials. Sad.
3: Skittles - That weird one with the Skittles tree growing out of the kid's stomach. It's implied the kid is kept alive as a Skittles farm--he's given just enough food to live and keep growing Skittles. The kid is miserable, near death, and has a tree growing from his stomach... mmm, appetizing! Do the ad execs even realize they are selling a food product? Plus, the spot implies Skittles are part fruit and part human. Umm, gross. There is nothing redeeming about this stupid commercial.
2: Charmin - Charmin has a message for us: bears shit in the woods; inferior toilet paper sticks to their hairy, shit-covered asses; and luckily, Charmin is strong enough to wipe bear shit off a bear ass without shredding or leaving cling-ons (baktag, not these guys) [you're welcome, nerds]. This is an example, but you've seen multiple variations on this theme.
1: Bucky Larson - Because of this (and every other) Bucky Larson commercial, I don't want to see this movie, which is probably for the best.
I also hate every commercial with volume cranked to a higher level than the program. On December 15, 2011, the CALM (Commercial Advertisement Loudness Mitigation) Act goes into effect and will require commercials to be no louder than the underlying show. Until then, what commercials piss you off?

Norwegian marine geophysical company PGS has extended its non-exclusive service agreement with Radio Holland for navigation and communication services on board nine seismic vessels in its global fleet.
Radio Holland Norway has worked with two PGS' vessels (Ramform Atlas and Ramform Titan) on a Service Agreement for several years already. Radio Holland will service all nine vessels in the fleet under the newly signed Preventive Maintenance Contract (PMA).
The signed PMA covers overhauls, maintenance, detailed technical reporting and advice based on this reporting regarding the onboard Navigation and Communication equipment. It also includes the mandatory GMDSS surveys for the safety equipment (Radio, EPIRB and AIS). The agreement has a 4-year duration.
Eirik Røyter, Commercial Manager of Radio Holland Norway, says, "We are pleased that PGS has trusted us with a dedicated service agreement, and we are proud to work closely with such a professional and safety-minded client. The vessels owned and operated by PGS are state-of-the-art and vessel availability is of the essence. By improving the reliability of on-board equipment unplanned maintenance and unexpected costs will be reduced. At Radio Holland we aim to offer PGS complete peace of mind, knowing that we will take care of all mandatory NavCom requirements."

If your employees go on an unprotected strike, you can dismiss them.
Sound simple?
Not quite. The Code of Good Practice says you must consider certain factors to ensure the dismissal is fair. You must consider things like:
#1: The seriousness of the contravention of the Labour Relations Act (LRA)
According to the Labour Law for Managers Loose Leaf Service, the attitude of the Labour Court is that if your employees demonstrate a complete disregard for the procedures of the LRA, they get less sympathy.
#2: Whether the strike was in response to your unjustified conduct
The courts will question the fairness of the dismissal if your conduct was unjustified.
For example, if you refuse to discuss the issue giving rise to the strike with your employees, the strike may be regarded as justified even though it's unprotected. However, an illegal strike won't be considered justified if you refuse to comply with a union's wage demand.
But be warned, if you provoke the strike or negotiate in bad faith prior to the strike, the courts will sympathise with your employees more.
These are just some of the things you must consider before you dismiss striking employees. To get the rest of the considerations, check out the Labour Law for Managers Loose Leaf Service so you can ensure the dismissal is fair.

A Must-read for every born again believer. Great book, simple to read and a strong proof of how faithful our God is. After reading each portion, I was and am still amazed on the way how God inspects our life and give warnings and chances because of his endless Mercy. Also it made me think of how much God is eager and ready to speak to all of us like this. This book definitely inspired me and I wish all of us will hear His voice if we sit in his presence. God bless you Dr and all those who helped you in this.
5 STARS... Read the whole book in one go. The book is so lively that I never took a break in between. Really wondering about the different ways in which God communicates. Great Job Dr. May God Bless you and your family abundantly...

Thread: Nearly 52 years in the NAWCC
Re: Nearly 52 years in the NAWCC (By: dweiss17)
Today, I will finish the piece I started,"My almost 52 years in the NAWCC." It just happens I have a lot of other things to do which includes much writing about my long years on this earth. I know I will dredge up memories of hurt that I thought I had buried deeply into the recesses of my aged brain. I will write about the dreams I dreamt, some coming true...other gathering the cobwebs of time that can never be totally forgotten. I will write about a family of Aunts, Uncles, Cousins, my eight siblings, my parents and a host of other people I came to know over the many years of this long life going on to age 102 years...it will not be easy to recall so many of the events, the happenings, even the joys I have been fortunate enough to enjoy. It is sad to report they are all gone...I am the last of the Mohicans...the last Weiss with unadulterated blood that came from Romania. All the others have gone unto another world we know nothing about.
At my age, I have no real family left, other than offspring of my brothers or sister, and their children. We all carry some of the Weiss blood that came to this country from Romania to escape the misery heaped upon a certain race of people. I would love to write about the names we all come to know from the history of the Pharos and even long before their reign...but, under our present NAWCC rules that is strictly forbidden.
On past pages of our NAWCC history, I have written much about the three felines I adopted to help relieve the loneliness of a person. even aged in those years, and the comfort of having them as house companions. And, how the tortoiseshell Frankie Weiss became the only non-human to ever hold membership in this great horologic enterprise.

Re: Nearly 52 years in the NAWCC (By: Kevin W.)
Page fifteen
I do not know how to explain or how to use the necessary words on how to describe my feelings in finding this little clock with a platform escapement. I can only say, "It was a dream come true." That I have been a dreamer all my long life and had dreams come true and other dreams fade away with dust covering them over is far beside the point.''
Thanks to some French horological genius more than 150 years ago, I was able by hook or crook to restore his wonderful effort in creating the Fountain Clock…a clock of immense beauty, not only in seeing the spirals turning, but the structure and the dimensions of this rare clock was like that of a painting that drew respects of awe
in seeing it for the first time. So it was with this clock and the graceful lines that underlined its beauty…even as a piece of furniture that had no movement.
Just looking at the spirals turning and simulating the flow of water into the tank, made special for that purpose, gave me the most wonderful horologic thrill I ever had in all my 51-52 years of discovering watches or clocks of unusual merit. The repairing and determination not to give up in my hope of restoring this masterpiece of horologic excellence to its original glory…was more than just hope! It was a horologic miracle come true.
My mind wandered back to the day it was fashioned and running; what kind of a dwelling or French palace was this clock situated in so many years ago. Were its owners people of royalty; I'm sure it had to be more than the common French citizen of that period who could own such a masterpiece…the work of a horologic clockmaker who had dreams of his own and true to his personal dream…made it come true, I am sure he was delighted with his handiwork and his horologic skill. As I'm sure did any person whoever laid eyes upon it…telling the time and simulated flowing water into its glass diamond thatched tank.
Without pictures this would be just a story of words, written with sincerity and the trust that my words could paint the picture I wanted it to be. However, with early foresight in photographing this French Fountain Clock, I am able to present the picture and the sizes of its features on the next and final page of this story. I have other photos, but I think this one photo tells the story to its best advantage.
In conclusion, I kept the clock running daily for about two years and thought it time to take it to a Chapter 1 meeting and sell it…if my price was met. Need I say it was bought within an hour of being set up on my tables…one clock seller in the room built over the swimming pool came to the table where I set it up…looked at it from every view possible and asked me for my price. Need I say it sold for more than any fine and expensive watch or clock I ever owned. Taking over twelve years to finalize a rare beautiful clock and restore it to its former glory…it paid off.
The following page has the photo and dimensions of this rare French Fountain Clock taken long before it was sold.

Re: Nearly 52 years in the NAWCC (By: dweiss17)
Page seventeen
This paged story starts my 52nd year in the National Association of Watch and Clock Collectors. During the many years I met untold numerous people, both male and female who became my friends and my fellow members in this NAWCC. Nature, as it will, has played its role in those blessed with long years of life, while others have gone unto new worlds…however, not of their choice.
In the finding of these gifts – unexplained horological treasures – those have been described elsewhere on these pages and also on Chapters no longer with us. These finds were important in the horological sense; they brought to light the only Howard pocket watch to ever leave the factory without being inscribed with the Howard name on its plates. Years back, I featured an Adams & Perry pocket watch #1585 that started the serial listings of these watches…while less than 50 have been reported as existing, running or not, the hits on that serial listing numbers beyond 33,000; a record for a company that really produced only one pocket watch in all its existence; the Lancaster & Keystone Watch Companies used A&P left over material.
During these many, many long years as a member of National Association of Watch Collectors…clocks and watches have passed through my hands, by the dozens and dozens, into the hands of other horologic enthusiasts who visited my tables month after month, year after year. I was fortunate to live in Philadelphia, who in center city had the hot bed of Jewelers Row….it was there I found so many of the valued pocket watches eagerly sought after by NAWCC members across the breath of the United States. My wife Evelyn and I visited NAWCC Chapters along the East coast and attended numerous Regionals and Conventions across the country.
For Evelyn, it was a bonanza of meeting and making new friends of the wives and lady friends that accompanied their man or husband. For me, it was more like a high one might get from some intoxicant or illegal drug. I received a great education in reading and writing about all this horological material that had its beginnings when man first walked the earth and noticed his shadow on the ground.
The education I received in this horologic venue was important enough for me to make the discovery our NAWCC Message Board lacked a place where we could as members communicate with one another. The Members News and Views came from that. So did the 50-year membership Plaques…at this date we have 318 members who donated 50 years of their lives to this pursuit. Another venture was noticing we never honored our Founders…from that came the Founders Plaque…inscribed are the titles and membership of our 52 Founders…dated November 7, 1943.
I wonder how many of our members have ever seen the Statue of Liberty in person, a gift to the USA from France. I will close with what I have described earlier on some of the pages - another gift from some French dreamer. The French Fountain Clock. It has three spirals turning in unison to appear as water flowing into a cut glass tank. It has a little clock with a platform escapement that tells the time of day. It is the dream of some French clock maker…who dreamt a dream that came true, and still functions as it should in someone's home.
This little masterpiece of allegoric symbols was created to delight the eyes of the beholder with its many symbols and expression of beautiful trimmings made over 160 years ago. I no longer am its precious keeper…in my heart…it will always remain the finest example of the horologic dreamer who makes his dreams come true.
Re: Nearly 52 years in the NAWCC (By: dweiss17)
The chap who has looked after my larger clocks had an ormolu gilt clock with the same effect in his workshop a while back, it had a boy on top with a pitcher and the water was pouring from that.
It really was effective and I imagine by flickering gas or oil lamp it would have been quite impressive.Nick, lots to learn, late starter.
