Again, it's all about the taste you prefer. I did not like the Spicy Egg Nog at all, nor do I like Wild Blueberry. They are just not for me. I usually make it a point to try something new when it comes out and I'll either like it and order it again or not. The flavored variety pack is a good way to sample some of the flavors available and go from there. The ratings by consumers are somewhat helpful, too.
I've been consuming Green Mountain and Timothy's flavored coffees for many years. I know there are many other brands available, but I stick with what I really like.

Gloria Jeans Butter toffee. So far my least fav was eggnog which is seasonal.
I do enjoy the Mocha Nut Fudge for me that is a take my time sipping coffee I usually use creamer but with the mocha and butter toffee I use sweetner only. Mar 14, 2013
The Moca Nut Fudge K Cups are phenomenal!! It's a little stronger than others I have had, but its delicious. Another great one to try is Kahlua. I would love to try the Creme Brule but cannot find it. Enjoy! Mar 14, 2013
i also love Southern Pecan, French toast, pumpkin spice to name a few. Mar 17, 2013
Butter toffee by Gloria jean
Creme Carmel by grove square

CRESTVIEW — Gulf Power has a new, unwanted building that could become a recycling facility for the Hub City. The City Council on Monday unanimously approved accepting the electric utility's gift.
There's just one catch: The city must dismantle and move the building.
The structure — originally a warehouse on Cadle Drive in southwest Crestview — comes with no other conditions, Public Works Director Wayne Steele said.
The 3,552-square-foot building is 96 feet long, 37 feet wide, was never occupied, has metal trusses, a metal roof, plywood walls and HardiePlank composite siding.
The cost to dismantle the building would not affect the Public Works budget, Steele said. The Okaloosa Correctional Institute's inmate labor would dismantle and store components at Public Works until the council decides where to place the building and determines its purpose.
"We have been proactive in our recycling initiative. It would serve well as a recycling facility," Steele said. "My recommendation would be to move it to behind the hospital by the fire building" on Brookmeade Drive.
Councilman Tim Grandberry praised the donation and Steele's suggestion, and moved to accept the donation upon approval of the city attorney. Council President Ben Iannucci III, a proponent of introducing more green initiatives to Crestview, pronounced the suggestion as "Great!"
In other matters, the council:
• Unanimously approved an ordinance waiving collection of traffic impact fees for a 24-month trial.
"It's a very big step to move our business development forward," Iannucci said.
• Unanimously approved renewing Crestview's annual dues to Sister Cities International for 2013. The action followed a two-week visit last month by 36 Noirmoutier, France guests.
• Unanimously approved placing an ad in a Crestview city map the Crestview Area Chamber of Commerce will publish.
• Unanimously approved a contract for officiating services at Crestview Recreation Department sports events. Hub City Sports Officials' $56,300 winning bid is $8,700 less than the budgeted amount.
The services had not been previously submitted for competitive bidding, Steele said.
• Unanimously approved having consultant Jack Dorman study the city's military compatibility update to the comprehensive plan.
A workshop on the issue is at 8 a.m. Feb. 9 at city hall.

LeeAnn Reigart, a registered nurse and an active member of the Awendaw community, has announced her candidacy for Awnedaw Town Council.
Reigart said she has a strong vision for the future of the community which she has called home since the early 1990s.
Reigart is originally from Saluda and was always very active in high school participating in numerous clubs, sports and student government. She graduated from Appalachian State in Boone, N.C., with a BS in sociology and a minor in juvenile justice and actively participated in student government. Reigart attended the University of South Carolina to earn her ADN in nursing and is a practicing registered nurse.
She is currently active in the Charleston running community, promoting a healthy and well balanced life style.
"Good government starts with well-informed citizens. You should know what your local government is doing at all times, and that is why I will immediately propose a consistent monthly newsletter that includes the town-hall meeting minutes and meetings, financial reports, job fair information and the promotion of the Awendaw community, its activities and its people," she said. "This newsletter should not be taxpayer funded; we simply cannot afford it, but instead sponsored by local businesses and organizations. By no means should this newsletter ever be utilized by your elected officials as self-promoting campaign material."
Reigart said if elected she will propose, support and promote fiscal responsibility. "The Town of Awendaw is broke; our budgets are not balanced and a lack of oversight and application of generally accepted accounting principals have resulted in egregious mismanagement.
This must end, and I will lead the fight to correct our financial woes, and we can and will do it without raising taxes."
In addition she said, "I will actively work to recruit and promote health screenings for blood pressure, flu shots and medication reviews. There are many services available to our people at the state and federal level, and I will work hard to make certain we receive our fair share."
Reigart plans to propose and promote viable and critical services such as water, waste and public safety and do it in a manner that does not raise taxes and allows for residents to opt-in or opt-out without penalty.
"I will promote gentle growth and development within our Awendaw community; we must, and I will, protect Awendaw from over development while balancing the need for reasonable improvements agreed to by the community at-large."

The Charleston Symphony Orchestra (CSO) Gospel Choir is pleased to present "The Wind and the Mockingbird: How the Written Word Changed Society," a concert theme inspired by literary works "Gone With the Wind" and "To Kill A Mockingbird." The concert will be presented on Saturday, May 25 at 5 p.m. at Emanuel AME Church, 110 Calhoun Street as part of the 2013 Piccolo Spoleto opening weekend. The Berkeley County All County Chorus will make a special guest appearance.
Through dramatic gospel music and historical narration, this performance is inspired by two best-selling literary novels that helped change the tone and course of U.S. race relations.
The performance highlights the work of two female authors each of whom only wrote one seminal work in their lifetime: Margaret Mitchell's 1936 novel "Gone With the Wind," a sweeping depiction of the privileged South during the Civil War and Harper Lee's 1960 "To Kill A Mockingbird," a personal account of racial heroism set in the Deep South during the Depression. Music and narration will honor these award-winning works that wielded enormous influence in changing America's view of race relations, prejudice and injustice with their portrayal of strong African-American characters, both later brought to the big screen to massive public appeal.
Both writers took divergent paths after their success — Mitchell would become a Hollywood darling who supported special causes including secret financial support for Morehouse College students via correspondence with its President and South Carolina native Dr. Benjamin Mayes. Lee hibernated, rarely seen in public after her success, despite a masterpiece that touched the lives of millions around the world.
The performance will feature older, more traditional gospel selections including an ode to Hattie McDaniel by Gospel great, Grace Majors-Ramsey performing "May The Work I've Done Speak For Me," along with historical narration by Dr. Karen Chandler of the College of Charleston, illustrating the transformational power of literature to alter the attitudes of a nation gripped by a history of racial inequality.
Tickets are $21 for adults; $11 for seniors/students with ID and may be obtained online at www.piccolospoleto.com, by phone at 866-811-4111 or at the door with cash or check only up to one-half hour before performance

Socrates' speech on love in the Symposium--arguing that love is merely a longing for immortality and ideas are immortal--is just a conceit of the intellectual. I prefer Aristophanes' speech, imagining a world in which humans were once four-armed, four-legged, and two-headed balls who tumbled around doing cartwheels, each one split in two and yearning to find their other half.

I won't be losing my jailbreak for this update, for sure.
Daylight savings brings annoying alarm clock bug. Software fix on the way.
iPhone users living in southern Australia were supposed to get an extra hour of sleep with the change to daylight savings on October 3, but didn't because the alarms on their iPhones went off an hour early. Apple knows about the bug and it should be fixed in the next update.
This is a very strange glitch because the iPhone's clock correctly updated with daylight savings, but the recurring alarm clock does not recognize the new time. However, a one-time alarm works just fine.
A representative from Apple Australia said that Apple is "aware of this issue and already developed a fix which will be available to customers in an upcoming software update." I expect this update will arrive before daylight savings goes into effect in the US in a few weeks.
In the meantime, users report that the best solution at the moment is to either set a new alarm every day or set your recurring alarm for an hour later than you want it to go off.
Any of our Australian readers experience this annoying bug?

Daylight savings brings annoying alarm clock bug. Software fix on the way.
Yep, but a little different for me. I have three recurring alarms. Two work a treat but one has that problem only after I travelled to another state (Qld) that doesn't have day light savings. When I returned home now that alarm is 1 hour late. Other 2 alarms still work perfectly. Weird huh?
i want to keep my 4.0.1 jailbroken, c'mon APPLE!!! PRODUCT TEST!!
Hope this gets resloved before it affects Europe. Dont want to wake up an hour early for no reason!!
At least it isn't tagging all SMS messages as 2016 in the date ....
@Elementbt since Monday. Google is your friend or www.greenpois0n.com if you're impatient like me :)
Saving/s? Care factor 0
I'm in Melbourne, Australia and we had different phones doing different things with this bug. In summary, only iOS 4.1 is affected. I run iOS 4.0.1 on my phone and the problem isn't there. It's already fixed in iOS 4.2 beta and the up and coming iOS 4.1.1. Sounds like someone screwed up a timezone file here :-)
I think the article is a bit wrong, when the clocks go forward you lose an hours sleep (as you lose an hour), but for some bizarre reason the iPhone alarms go off an hour early - not an hour late as mentioned by some! (At least on mine) which means you lose yet another hour. I was pretty dumbfounded waking up at 5am on Monday morning.
I live in Sydney, Australia and my iPhone 3GS goes off an hour early, it is extremely annoying! It does make sense since we put the clocks forward an hour so technically the alarm is going off at the same time not including daylight saving. It's odd as no one else in my office (who I add are all iPhone users) have experienced this issue. Needless to say that my iPhone did automatically update when daylight saving came into place!
Just happened in Brazil. We entered daylight saving time my recurrent alarm went off an hour early. Very annoying. Not only did I have one fewer hour because daylight saving, but the alarm went off even one hour earlier! I went to the gym to the gym to meet my personal trainer and of course he wasn't there.
Same problem with my iphone 3g, only difference I'm on Chile not Australia. My alarm is ringing one hour before.
I have used my alarm the first time this morning since the 15th Oct and the alarm went off an hour early. Before the 15th no problem but since then I updated software to 4.1. As said in previous replied the non recurring alarm went off at the right time but the recurring alarms were the one affected.
I have seen many comments but does anyone have a fix other than setting the alarm and hour later than required.
Oh by the way I live in Country NSW and had to get up at 4am and the alarm went off at 3am so not happy that this has occurred.
Thank God! I thought I just had a bum phone. When, oh when, is the update coming? I'm sick to death of my phone not going off at the right time! Grrrrrrrr!!!!!!! >:0(
This issue still exists and has hit my wife who got her nice new iPhone on Sat, set a repeating alarm yesterday (the daylight saving changed Sat night here in England), and her 6:40 alarm today went off at 7:40. Hopefully when she deletes and resets it today it will be OK until next spring?
Despite having several weeks warning, this was NOT fixed in time for Europe's end to DST. I woke up late this morning with my wife shouting "look at the time!".
I am not impressed. Since Apple knew about this, they should have fixed it or at least warned people. If I'd missed a flight rather than just a few minutes of work, I'd be absolutely furious.
I've had it with my iPhone.
Same happened with me yesterday in the UK alarm went off an hour late. Luckily I woke up when my partner got up so wasn't late for work. I deleted the alarm and set a new time and that didn't work this morning woke up an hour late again. It is just as well I have my own business so can get away with being late ... but apple this is not good enough they have to get it sorted out!
Mine as well if I set up 4:20am (I suppose to wake up at4:20am), but it will alarm at 3:20 am?
but noticed something if you set 6:00am above it trigger the alarm exactly.
I think I found the cure and now its working fine no more false alarm. I did my experiment like this: let your iphone battery 100% drained and let automatically shut off and leave it for two hours and then after two hours recharge your battery then power on' Presto!!
the alarm issue finally solved!! I fixed more than 10 iphone already with the alarm issue.
Hello, Neat post. There's an issue together with your site in web explorer, might check this? IE still is the market leader and a big part of folks will omit your excellent writing because of this problem.

For their Rotary Service Project "Happy Feet," Kingstree Rotarians outfitted 60 elementary children from Williamsburg County School District. Students from Greeleyville Elementary, Hemingway Elementary and Williamsburg County Magnet School of the Arts were fitted with a new pair of shoes and socks as well as a story time and face painting.
Rotarians and Interact officers from Williamsburg Academy greeted the students and helped each child pick out a perfect pair of new shoes. "This service project was a huge success," said Rotarian Ernie Jarrett who coordinated the $2,000 project.

Williamsburg Academy senior Raina McKenzie participated in the event. "Today was a real eye opener to the local poverty we know is there but seem to overlook daily," said McKenzie. "We take so many things for granted including the ability to a buy a pair of shoes whenever we please.

To The Editor:
A letter to our legislators:
We all want our students to reach their potential and succeed in school -- our future depends on it. As educators, we ask Vermont to support H.333, making free breakfast available to the 7,500 reduced price eligible students, and ensuring they can concentrate on learning. School breakfast is a powerful educational tool -- improving achievement scores, reducing absences and tardiness, improving behavior and even reducing obesity among students. This educational tool is out of reach for many low income students who are in the reduced price category. School food services around the state tell the same story: A child stops eating breakfast when their family starts to make a little more money and is no longer eligible for free breakfast. These students eat breakfast about half as often as free eligible students and it shows in their ability to learn.
That families whose children qualify for reduced price meals do not have the money to pay for breakfast is no surprise when you consider that they make between 130 to 185 percent of poverty or $26,845 to $38,203 for a family of four -- well below the $49,685 required for this family to meet basic needs according to the Joint Fiscal Office of the Vermont Legislature. These payment categories for school meals were set up at a time when the calculation for the poverty level was more in keeping with reality.
H.333 would not only feed hungry children but would also support our struggling school meal programs. It is estimated that the state money provided by H.333 would leverage an additional $280,000 in federal funds for school meals.
The recent report from the New England Common Assessment Program (NECAP) shows that far fewer low income students, those eligible for free and reduced price meals, test proficient or higher in math, reading and writing than their more affluent peers. Providing breakfast to all of these students may well give them the leg up they need to succeed in school.
Vermont should join the states of Washington and Oregon in making school breakfast accessible to some of our most vulnerable children. It is a fiscally sound way to reduce education and health care costs, and it is the right thing to do.

My question is related to lab results that seem to be conflicting to me, and I do not understand the flucuation. I am in kind to believe that they are wrong, and I wondered if any clarification of them can be given to me. The are in reference to the PIH Panel and 24 hour urine tests.
My doctors have had me repeat the preeclamptic labs due to my history every 4 weeks up until week 29, now every week. I am now 31 weeks pregnant.
My baseline for the 24 hour urine was 68mg/24hrs
8/14 - Urine Creatinine 72.4, 24 hr Creat. Clearance 365.0, Urine Protein 7.0, 24 hour urine protein 126.00mg
9/21 - Urine Creatinine 79.2, 24 hr Creat. Clearance 100.6, Urine Protein <5.0, 24 hr urine protein (not listed)
9/27 - Urine Creatinine 81.0, Urine Protein 30.0, 24 hour urine protein 525.00mg (test repeated because OB felt 9/21 results were inaccurate.)
10/04- Urine Creatinine 68.6, 24 hr Creat. Clearance 100.5, Urine Protein 30.00, 24 hr urine protein 525.00mg
10/11 - Urine Creatinine 42.2, 24 hr Creat. Clearance 68.5, Urine Protein 6.0, 24 hr urine protein 105.00mg
Im no doctor or anything but it seems strange to me that particularly the 24 hour urine would change so radically in such a short time. Is it possible for it to read high one day, then a few days later be low again? And as far as other signs of a problem, how important is the urine creatinine and the 24 hour creat. Clearance. I just want to know from an expert opinion, do these lab values seem to wildly flucuate or are they fine and can vary as they have for me.
By the way my blood pressures have been fine. Earlier in my pregnancy they were low for me 110/60, now they are running average about 123/78 occassionally 126/84 but nothing higher than that. I have a history of preeclampsia, this is my third pregnancy I had preeclampsia with my first born at 33 weeks 3lb 10oz, and Severe PE/HELLP with my second born at 31 weeks at 2lbs. 11oz. With my second pregnancy I believe I had somewhere in the neighborhood of 7000+ grams of protein in my urine before I was delivered.
Any information/direction you can provide would be helpful.

I've played TL2 once as a berserker on normal. I'm now rerolling on veteran difficulty.
TL2 trees are mainly active trees with skill ups for those active skills. TL2 skill trees aren't really trees as they have no prerequisities other than levels.
You can mix and match from three different "trees" however you like, with the restriction being which skills are available at each level. In this way D3 and TL2 are similar. But D3 allows you to make any build you want on the fly. TL2 has an unforgiving system that only allows you to change the last three skill point allocations. Full respecs are available, but they will flag you as a "cheater". Unless you use a workaround that exploits the system to prevent that flag from appearing.
Any modern ARPG developer that prevents full respecs is clinging to the idea that a player needs to start over if they made a mistake or wants to try a different build. They try to make up for a lack of content by urging rerolls. Good luck getting players today to buy such a game in massive numbers.
The overall story and mythology are weak. Like, really, really weak. It makes D3 story telling look like it was written by George R.R. Martin. The monsters in the game are pretty forgettable.
With that being said, the game was fun from the start, assuming you picked the right difficulty. The itemization is good but not great. Both D3 and TL2 really dumbed down the itemization and stats of D2. When something works, there's no reason to try and fix it.
Overall I'd give TL2 a 6/10 with points deducted for dated and extremely cartoony graphics, lack of closed servers, lack of full respecs, poor group finding tools (can't easily match with people on the same quest), weak itemization and over reliance on resists(in this case elemental armor).
D3 would get a 7.5/10 from me for more diverse builds, ease of full respecs, much more content, closed servers and slightly more fun combat.
I couldn't possibly grade POE. That game wasn't fun in my two tries on the kind of class I always like. I hated the low level skills and combat, the art direction, the music, the passive only skill tree and poor grouping tools. It's simply not very fun to earn a skill point and only get things like +5 strength. For pure fun per level increase, TL2 wins hands down. Unlocking new skills on a level up or increasing their power is great. Something severely lacking in D3 and POE.
There's plenty of room out there for a true heir to D2. It's just not going to be D3, TL2 or POE.

I pre-ordered the game months ago, I played on release day, got to level 50 something, and then I just couldnt drag myself to log in again...
Its not even the graphics, its the utterly pointless storyline and loot hunting in a single player game... Had they implemented a secure server where your progress is there for the world to see and play legit with people, I would have dropped diablo in the blink of an eye.

TL2 doesnt take itself too seriously & is thus fun which for me is of primary importance.
TL2 will have people playing it for a long time, the TL community is strong & lived a long time and thats with no multiplayer in the first game. TL2 with the added multiplayer will be quite a busy hive for a few years yet.
One of the things that kept so many players playing TL1 was the many combinations of skills in the skill tree, this will continue with TL2.
For me TL & TL2 represents everything I loved about Diablo (unsurprising given Runics founding fathers) with a lot of decent improvements and some logical progression of the genre. I stayed away from D3 after I found I didnt enjoy D2 anywhere near as much as Diablo and had to force myself to grind out to the end of D2 and then never replayed, something I never had trouble with in Diablo. Besides at the Price Runic is asking for a sequel to a game I quite enjoyed with absoultely no DRM...... Its an instant purchase.
Lastly the Kotaku Piece is just an Opinion piece and only the opinions of one writer therefore should not be taken too seriously IMHO. Far be it for me to suggest they may have posted a controversial Opinion Piece to generate traffic.....

Lol did someone say Torchlight 2 had weak itemisation compared to BUY BUY BUY on out real money auction house 3!
Also apparently it makes up for lack of content by not having a respec? When its a longer game than diablo3 with its trick of front loading all its content in act 1. Also off no respecs is making up for lack of content, what the hell is;
A) forcing you to play through noob difficulty before you can play at a fun difficulty
B) forcing you to repeat grind sections (or give blizzard a cut on the rmah) by having such a low drop rate on gear you need to progress.
The only thing d3 has over tl2 is graphics. And tl2 graphics while simpler have a consistent art style. Are modern gamers so shallow that graphics is THAT important compared to gameplay.
TL2 is a classic. I'm going to say something controversial. In my opinion its the best ARPG ever, evenbetter than original diablo

I think this is a moot point given the difficulty choices. Moreover when you actually look at most of the skills, which have either %weapon dps or *based on character level, there is not much difference if you have +10 or +12 (thus 2 ponts to assign wrongly). But on the other hand, insane people did reroll for a single point in axe mastery instead of sword mastery in d2...
What is personally annoying for me is the targeting and movement system, together with the quite questionable choice of allowing projectiles to fly trough objects, but not spells, as a mage you are nearly constantly out of los, due to stairs, bushes, urns, rocks...

It's really quite simple.
From a gameplay standpoint, Torchlight 2 just blows Diablo 3 out of the water. It's superior on every lvl. Actually interesting loot, fun & rewarding skills, good online & offline group play. Good single player experience. Pleanty of exploration outside of the the main questline. Mod community support. You really can't get much more bang for your buck off a 20$ game. It really should be a no-brainer if you like dungeon crawlers. Unless you are so strapped for cash that 20$ is a huge investment for you.
What D3 does have over Torchlight 2, is graphics. TL2 is very cartoony. D3 is still cartoony, but it hides it w/ a very gothic setting.
So basically, if you don't care about good gameplay, and all you really want in a video game is a gothic art style, then D3 is for you. If a game having good gameplay is important to you, and you enjoy dungeon crawlers, then there really is no good reason to not get torchlight 2. It's just a really damn good, fun game.
Yeah, I think diablo had better story and memorable characters. But arpgs aren't really about story. Torchlight 2 really powers the arpg experience with.
The pet - fantastic, no more constant journeys back and forth to town.
The randomness - each playthrough is so different, with cool things like the phase beast challenges, secret areas, puzzles, dungeons that aren't on every play etc..
The pace - its so fast and actiony, which is what you want from an arpg.

I wouldn't disagree (when it comes to dungeon crawlers at least). TL2 is what diablo 3 should've been (aside from the graphics). Some of the original creators for the diablo IP worked on TL2, and they not only improved upon the ideas they started to in D1 & 2, but they also learned from the mistakes D3 made, and tweaked their game accordingly prior to release.
Damn good game.

Nope. I said it had weak itemization. So does D3. Both have weak itemization compared to D2.
TL2 pluses over D3:
1) offline mode
2) sending pets to town
3) $20
4) actual stat allocation
5) skill tree with actual skill upgrades
6) D2-like soundtrack
D3 pluses over TL2:
1) closed servers - HUGE advantage in multiplayer
2) much better graphics and monsters, non blocky models and terrain
3) More interesting classes
4) More D2 like leveling grind (paragon)
5) More interesting universe and story
6) More adult oriented minions
7) Developer dedicated to expanding/improving the game with a team large enough to do it in a reasonable amount of time (Runic is uber casual with their games and updates).
Neither game implemented runewords, charms or many other things that made D2 special.
Right now I'm playing TL2. It's a great single player game but full of hackers that are already able to cheat without having a flag.
I played TL1 for about two weeks and got bored. They totally borked item drops in that game somewhere around level 40. I did keep up with checking out the multiplayer mods people were proposing but they never beared fruit.
I expect to play a little longer in TL2, but it will likely be a very niche game a few months from now. And you'll never know if someone hacked their character.
More interesting classes - err no, they all play one way only, you have way more flexibility in tl2.
E.g. with an engineer you can
Go around smaking the hell out of stuff with a hander, make a summoner build, make a group focused heal / support build, make a s+b tank build, make a cannon totting rdps build.
7 - nope dev team devoted to making as much money as possible outta the rmah
6 - what the hell is more adult orientated minions, do you get a pet Gimp or something?

Obviously no one can argue with an opinion, but 3-6 seem wildly subjective. I think the Engineer is much more interesting than Barbarian, in fact I've always groaned at Diablo's slavish implementation of the classic Wizard/Fighter/Rogue trope. While TL2's story was sort of hand-wavy, it doesn't sink to the level of D3's narrative fail.
And why is "adult minions" listed as a plus for D3? I like my ferret far more than I ever liked my Paladin, but more importantly my ferret is a viable combat partner without a thousand dollars of gear festooning it. No comparision between the two games minions should ever end up with D3 ahead.

It may actually do the _ing _un community some good, dont forget Emin is a ''grandmaster'' while Lesnar is just a ''sportfighter.''

Another exclusive -- Spawn i.098 from Spawn Series 24 -- has come and gone through the online McFarlane Toys Collector's Club Store at spawn.com. Selling out its entire production run in just six days, it was one of the fastest-selling exclusives in the history of the Club.
This capping off a year of other incredibly popular exclusive pieces, including Stealth Predator and the Flying Monkeys from the Twisted Land of Oz series.
The year is winding down, but we've still got a couple of things coming in 2003.
The re-supply of Oz Monkeys is about a month out and they're still available -- while they last -- at the Store.
A re-supply of the ever-popular NBA Backboard is coming later in November in conjunction with the retail release of McFarlane's Sports Picks: NBA Series 5.
A limited supply of the upcoming NHL 12-inch action figures Mario Lemieux and Patrick Roy (in both Canadiens and Avalanche unis). These are due to hit around the same time as in Canada for American customers through the Store at spawn.com (the only source for this item in the U.S.). Look for these in late November/early December.
A new supply of figure stands, this time in clear (vs. the normal black) as polled on our Club message board. Likely available in December.
Oh, and 2004? Ah, yes. We do have some nice surprises coming in the new year. Don't expect any beans to be spilled in this space. Suffice it to say, we'll have some Spawn stuff, some sports stuff and several exclusives from other lines all scheduled. Should be a good year for Club collectors.
Oh, and we are working on another redesign of the Store at spawn.com. This time, though, not only will it receive a new look, it will have a myriad of functional improvements as we're outsourcing the bandwidth, which should reduce some of the server overload users experience. More details on this in the coming weeks.

The verdict? Well obviously we prefer the iPhone 4, but we will say that the lack of a curved back has us flipping the device around quite a bit post-pocket-pull. But the iPhone 4 is thinner, feels nicer to our hands, and... well there are a lot of "ands," the last of which is ...and you'll have to wait for our full review for our full opinion.
Ok, we'll let one thing out now: while you may have pooh-poohed the Retina display from what you've seen before, when it comes to viewing text there's just plain nothing else like it out there. We've included a detail shot of the Retina Display up against the iPhone 3GS's display after the break (along with the rest of the gallery) and we're pretty sure it'll put most arguments to rest. Yes, it's not necessary to read web pages or ebooks, but seeing electronic text at this level of refinement changes you, deep down, and suddenly all other electronic text looks like amateur-hour.

iPhone 4 vs iPhone 3GS in Pictures
I am completely loving my iPhone 4. It is Awesome.
Still love my 3GS must say !!
Personally there is nothing that cinvinces me to trade up a year earlier than planned. I'm happy with ios4 upgrade for my 3GS.
As per retina display I'll have to check it out is person cos looking at your screen shots on my 3GS makes no difference at all.
Maybe seeing it in the flesh will make it 'pop' lol.
How's the reception if you cover the base of the phone with your hand, there rumours going around on the interweb that this causes the 4 to lose some reception ?? Any comments ??
Also floating around in interweb land are several pictures of 'yellowing' areas of yellow tint on the screen which many are attributing to the manufacturing process.
As for me I'll wait for iPhone 4.5 lol.
Enjoy ur phones guy
Went to AT&T today to see a store demonstration phone. Awesome!! Felt amazingly heavy, screen was a joy to look at. The salesperson had to wrestle it out of my hand, lol. I have a 3G and I'm due for an upgrade but didn't want to order one without actually seeing it in person. No question in my mind that I'll be getting one now.
@smartbuyer my iphone phone is 4 minutes behind my 3gs and everyone else's phone at work
Not to sound jerkish...but it's only amazing compared to the 3G S because the resolution was so low (compared to most phones out now).
Yes the Retina Display is the most densely pixel packed display out. But whne compared to a 800x480 (or 854x480) screen...the difference isn't that big. It's of course going to be crisper and have more clarity. But it's not going to be something that you'd want to drop your phone and go run for.
But I am still loving the display. I thank Apple for putting this resolution out there (just as Windows did the 800x480). Cause now...I see this being a norm come as early as the end of this year. Maybe even hitting 720p resolutions (hey...a geek can dream cant he)
hmm the iPhone 4 looks nice, however the pictures of the screen must not be doing it justice cause I can barely tell the difference. Guess I'll have to see one in stores. Anyways I'm still happy with the 3GS with the iOS4 update, feels more like the phone I always wanted now that it can multitask.
The difference makes itself very clear... But, what about some comparison shots with already high-res devices, like the Nexus1,
HD2 and Evo4G?
Side by side macro shoots would show ppl clearly that it's not the size of the display that makes it look nicer & better, but the dpi...
I'd love to see such a match.
Guys & ladies
I have had the iPhone4 for about three weeks. IT IS ABSOLUTELY AWESOME!!!
Antennagate is a reality.
I am actually flogging my iPhone4 and downgrading to a 3GS. Constant dropping of calls (2 out of 5), no signal where iPhone3GS has plenty... ouch.. not nice to sell but I need a phone that is actually, erm... a phone.

I get quite a few questions about spray paint, and I thought the most useful way for all of my readers would be to answer those questions publicly. So here it goes.
Why do you use spray paint!?!
I choose to use spray paint because I want my furniture to look like I bought it from a store instead of a refinishing project gone array. I have learned this the hard way. I have a lot of gallons of paint, and believe me, it is TEMPTING to use those. But, I have come to the conclusion that spray paint leaves a much more professional finish than brushing the paint on. I have brushed it on before….a LOT….I don't do it anymore. Not even occasionally. Spray painting is much more time effective and my furniture ends up looking store bought.
Sidenote: If I had a super nice paint sprayer…I would definitely try using gallon paint, but brushing paint onto projects is long in my past. I hate the brush marks it leaves.
It is "thrifty-er" (is that even a word?…I think I made it up) to brush paint on because of the price of the spray paint. Why do you waste money on spray paint?
In my opinion this is a HUGE "no way" because for me time is money. Brushing paint on takes hours…ok lets be honest…DAYS. For me, I do projects all the time. If I had to wait for a project to dry several hours between coats instead of 10 minutes I would go crazy, and would get 5% of the projects done that I started. I simply use spray paint because of the time efficiency and the professional finish like I discussed above.
Why do you use Krylon? Do you suggest any other brands?
I use Krylon spray paint because of the nozzle. Their nozzle is by far the best in my opinion. Have I used other brands? Yes, I have. In fact I still do sometimes when Krylon doesn't have the right color that I'm looking for. But, you have to have a "play it by ear" attitude when dealing with other brands. They tend to dry slower than Krylon, and sometimes they don't coat as well. DO NOT BUY THE CHEAP $1.00 a can stuff. You will end up spending more money than if you buy less of the more expensive stuff. (Speaking from experience here). I have bought Rust-oleum Painter's Touch 2X coverage on several occasions and have had a good experience.
What sheen of spray paint should I buy?
I always buy gloss (not high gloss). I've had a lot of people wonder if their project is going to look too shiny when they get done. In my opinion, after you prime your project with KILZ, the sheen will not look overly glossy. I know that sounds weird, but that is what I have found. My projects seem to always end up looking more like a satin finish when they get done. PLUS, I want to be able to wipe off a project if my kids spill anything on them. If you use flat paint, you will not be able to wipe it off (again speaking from experience here).
Do you always prime your projects?
Yes, in fact, I would say 95% of the time I prime my projects. I have found that the KILZ spray paint primer is by far the best. If you prime your project, the KILZ will seal it. It will help your project to have a better sheen and finish as a result.
Why does KILZ spray primer leave a sand-papery finish sometimes?
I'm not sure. I have had several people tell me that if you shake the can for longer than two minutes than the sand papery finish doesn't happen. I just take a high grit sand paper (220 grit) after I have primed a project and hand sand it quickly. It takes it right off very quickly.
I painted a project and the paint didn't stick, do you know why?
Number 1: did you prime it? Number 2: was it metal or plastic, or some sort of material that the spray paint can did not say it was ok to paint it with? I bet it was either of these reasons…maybe both that made your paint so fragile and peel off.
Why do some colors cover better than others?
I wish I had a magic answer for this one. But, what I have found is that some colors are simply more translucent than others. A few of the translucent colors I have used are RED, NAVY BLUE, LIME GREEN, and ORANGE. These colors are going to need a LOT more coats than some of the more covering colors like: Ivory, Black, Blue Ocean Breeze (Krylon), Smoke Gray (Krylon), White, and Bauhaus Gold (Krylon). So, if you are painting a project with the more translucent colors described above, plan to buy at least twice as much paint.
After spraying a project do you seal it with a polyurethane after?
I have only done this on a few occasions. It simply depends if I think it needs to be protected. For example on all the dining room tables I have redone, I have sealed the top. I have used a poly-acrylic (or polycrylic I've seen it called both) because it is water based instead of oil based. This protects the projects that will have constant use and wear. Buy a small can of the polycrylic and buy a specific application tool sold specifically for it (a cloth or brush). Just make sure that you follow the directions (on the bottle) on how to apply it.
How do you prevent the spray paint from dripping?
I use thin coats of spray paint and try hard not to get too much paint on the project. If you spray too much, this will cause it to drip. I am not perfect, and sometimes I have a drip here and there. I simply sand it off with a high grit sand paper and put another few coats of the spray paint to cover it.
How do you prevent your projects from looking stripey?
The project will look stripey while you add the coats of spray paint. Keep spraying coats until the stripey look disappears. I think the best bit of advice here is to make sure you have enough spray paint to cover the entire project completely. Make sure you start your spraying off the project and continue across and end off the other side, then continue back across until you go back off the project. Your painting will look better if you do it this way. Glazing a project is also a great way to hide stripes.
How do you spray paint in your garage? Doesn't this cause over spray to get all over your garage?
Spraying in my garage is the only way I can do projects during certain times of the year, and I try hard to make sure the entire area is covered with a drop cloth or plastic. BUT…sometimes the over spray covers the floor and items that are near. So, make sure your car and items that you don't want dusted with over spray are not near by. I'm lucky to have a pretty large garage, so I have plenty of room for projects.
What do you use to spray your projects on outside?
I use old carpet remnants to spray most of my projects on. I sometimes use paint drop clothes, but I've found that if I'm spray painting on the side of my house (in the rocks) my projects are more stable if I use carpet.
Have you ever gotten a can of paint that does not have enough pressure to spray properly?
Yes, it drives me crazy when this happens. I take it back to the store and ask for an exchange. They will only do this if the can is mostly full, so don't keep trying to use it if it is defective.
Does it hurt your hand or finger after spraying a large project?
Yes, in fact, it hurts pretty darn bad after you have held a spray paint can in spraying position for several hours. So, I have found that buying the store-bought triggers (that clip to the top of the can) can be helpful. Other than that, I'm not sure if there is a magic solution to this one either. I have just learned to be tough and grit my teeth.
Update 11/11/10
Why does spray paint bubble at times?
I have been getting this question a lot lately. I can only guess why the paint is bubbling based on why it has bubbled for me in the past. These are the reasons why I have had problems with this in my experience:
1. It is too cold. You need to spray paint between about 60 degrees and 85 degrees. Especially if it is "freezing" weather, your paint could literally freeze when it hits the cold air. I have seen this on many occasions.
2. It is too hot. If the weather is too hot, then the paint tends to dry too fast. If this is the case, it can bubble up also. Do not spray paint directly in the beating sun (especially in the summer) or your paint will bubble right up.
3. Your coats are too thick. If there is too much paint on the furniture, when it dries, it will cause it to bubble.
4. You are using a "cheap" spray paint (around $1.00 a can). This type of spray paint is much more apt to bubble.
What do I do if the paint bubbles?
Do NOT panic! Simply get a high grit sand paper (220) and lightly sand the bubbling after it is dry, and go over the area again with paint (no need to prime again).
Can you spray paint in extreme weather temperatures?
In my experience as described above in the bubbling section, it is best if you spray in an environment that is between 60-85 degrees. I don't have this luxury a lot because of the climate I live in. In the summer, it can get to 120 degrees outside. The winter is much milder, but I have to have a "play it by ear" mentality with this. I still do projects in the garage in the winter, and I still spray paint in hot weather. I just stand the risk of the paint bubbling if I choose to spray paint outside of my recommended degree allotment.
How do you protect your lungs from the spray paint?
I always spray in a well ventilated area, and I hold my breath. I have tried masks in the past, but they drive me crazy. I try to spray paint outside in the fresh air as much as the weather allows.
Where do you buy your spray paint?
I buy as much as possible at Wal-Mart because the price is the best. Do NOT buy a can of spray paint at a craft store for $8.99 a can. Holy cow…that is a major RIP off. Krylon spray paint is $3.47 at my local Wal-Mart. Home Depot will also meet and beat competitor's prices, so I often get KILZ spray primer there so I can save a bit of money since I buy a lot of it.
I'll keep adding to this post if other items come up, but these are the most common questions I get on a daily basis. The main thing I'd suggest, is that you will get better at spraying your projects with practice. Practice helps you to experience the same problems that I have come across, and you will soon be an expert also!
I am unsure of the original source of this photo. If anyone knows, please let me know in the comments below!

The development being discussed at the Jan. 21 meeting was a proposed 60-unit apartment complex for an area off Highway 18 East. The principals of Peachtree Housing Communities came to Jones County's housing committee recently requesting a letter of the support for the application for tax credits to fund the project.
The property owners told council members that the same company had built apartments in other cities that later became Section Eight housing and that was their concern.
Gray Mayor Stephen Tingen said he has had several requests from developers over the past week asking for his support of their projects. He said, currently, the property is zoned for apartments, and there is little council can do to control what is constructed unless guidelines are put into place.
"At this time the city has nothing in place holding developers to the standards we want," he said.
Council members talked about the possibility of placing a moratorium on permits for the construction of apartments for 60 days at the suggestion of Tingen to give them time to amend their ordinance and put some construction standards in place.

The Difference.
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
The Yakima Skybox Pro series differs from the Skybox Carbonite series in the finish applied to the lid. �The Pro series comes in a high gloss, automotive style finishes of onyx or titanium. �The Carbonite series lids are in semi-gloss black with a dimpled finish (similar to a golf ball's surface).

I got this sweet box to decrease gear clutter and add some overall class to my ride. An 18 would have been pushing the limits but the 16 fits perfectly atop my valiant steed, Blue (92' Nissan Pathfinder). The locks/latches are easy to open and I love that I can open this bad boy from either side. I was astounded at how simple it was to securely attach the box to my vehicle - no bells and whistles - just a simple interior operated clasp latch.
The extras that come with the pro are kind of cool. The gear pad is nothing terribly special, but a nice addition nonetheless. It runs the entire length of the box, but not the complete width. The gear net is very practical, and the inside of the box has links to connect said net.
I can fit 3+ humans worth of camping soft goods, copious amounts of climbing gear, all of my car repair/emergency basics, and assorted random junk. So far, it doesn't seem to change my gas mileage more so than a car full of friends, but time will tell.
I will post another photo when I've pimped the exterior out with stickers galore.

This thing can do it all!
Weather if you're a sales rep, a weekend warrior, or just a road tripper. This is the cargo box for you. Easy on easy off within just a matter moments, not too heavy and works awesome if you have a wagon like a Subaru the back is angled so you can open the tailgate fully unlike some Thule boxes that hang off the back. Used this on both my Tacoma with pic enclosed and my 97' Subaru. That pic is with a 6 foot bed Tacoma
The "Yak" 16S Is Everything I Expected +
- Gender: Male
- Familiarity: I've used it once or twice and have initial impressions
From the moment I placed my order to delivery, everything ran seamlessly and like clock work, thanks to the good people at Backcountry.com. After delivery I mounted my new Yakima 16S on the Yakima Whispbar that I originally purchased for my mountain bike.Installation couldn't have been easier. All it took was five minutes and sliding the Whispbars to the desired length.
I'm an independent contractor working in the oil& gas pipeline business living in Florida. I travel to assignments for extended periods of three to six + months, so I need to take along my clothes (for whatever climate), a portable office, some essential kitchen gizmos, and a few creature comforts and maybe a bicycle, fly rod or upland hunting equipment. After delivery and uncrating, I mounted the carrier on top of my 2006 ML-350 in five minutes. The only adjustment was to slide the Whispbar and using the built in fastening system developed by Yakima , clamped it down to its desired length.
Having never used a rooftop carrier before, I drove around for a week to see how I liked it.
It was completely quiet, secure and with no clue whatsoever that anything was on top of the car. Only when you got out of the car you were visually reminded that there was a Yak Box on top.
I'm looking for ward to my next assignment and the use of my 16S. This time I won't need to leave something behind for lack of space. I give this five stars.

According to the Yakima site it's "Perfect for hauling gear for up to 3 campers. Great for snowboards and skis up to 180cm."
Tommy Baez
Yep! It's in there.
Even in our fairly large 08 Toyota Sienna, we welcome the additional space, just a slight increase in wind noise and no real drop in fuel mileage the Pro 16 fits perfectly between the sunroofs rear edge and the rear of the van, opening the rear hatch was no problem. Jamming the various vacation collectibles and a bunch of the kids luggage was again no problem (soft sided luggage helps). Honestly, the fact that it open on both side is awesome and we went into some heavy rain storms and everything was dry afterwards.

Check with your dealer for a fairing. Honestly, the wind noise and degeneration in gas mileage caused by your cargo box is so severe that a fairing will likely do nothing for you (except look faster).

2011: Sure, cycling (or any outdoor activity) may increase your risk of inhaling airborne nastiness. And it's true that bad air is bad for your health. (One recent study links air pollution and harmful heart-rate changes.) But the health and fitness benefits of riding far outweigh any exposure to smog. And since 1990, emissions of the six worst pollutants have dropped by more than 40 percent, thanks to stricter air-quality laws. In fact, today's vehicles emit about half as much carbon dioxide as they did in 1975. So we (seriously) feel confident saying that you can leave the gas mask at home—especially if you avoid rush hour and high-traffic roadways.

Yolk Lore
1983: Bicycling tells readers to eat no more than three whole eggs a week.
2011: Health experts have long said to limit eating eggs (yolks especially) for fear their cholesterol and fat content would harm the heart. But a recent review of dozens of studies finds no connection between egg consumption and heart disease. "Eggs can raise total cholesterol," says sports-nutrition expert Alan Aragon, MS. "But the type of 'bad' cholesterol that increases is not linked to heart disease—and they raise 'good' cholesterol, too." Aragon advises cyclists not to limit their intake.
"There's no compelling evidence that eating eggs is harmful." It's better to consider how they fit into your daily protein, fat, and carb needs: One large egg has 6g of protein, 5g of fat, and minimal carbs.

Store number 26 has done a great job taking care of my unit. They call me when things do not look good. I have even been out of the country for a year and they let me know when things are not looking good there. Thank you for training such good staff to watch over our belongings.Terry from Greensboro, NC

McFARLANE TOYS STORE & SHOWROOM WINS AWARD
'Best Geek Store,' Says AZCentral.com
Friday, May 25, 2007
"McFarlane Toys is a Mecca of geekdom."
So says AZCentral.com, which has named our Tempe toy store and showroom "Best Geek Store" in its 1st Annual BEST Readers' Choice Awards. Readers are invited to nominate and vote for their favorite people, businesses and establishments in the Phoenix metropolitan area.
"The store, in an office complex across the street from IKEA, is the public face of comic artist and baseball collector Todd McFarlane's toy empire. In addition to selling the latest McFarlane toys, some at deep discounts, the store is a museum of McFarlane action figures, with huge displays of his creations, from Spawn and Alien to the NFL.
"You won't see the Mark McGwire baseball, but you can see plenty of other memorabilia from McFarlane's collection, including autographed concert posters and baseball jerseys. There's even a chance that McFarlane may be wandering the store, giving autographs to fans."
AZCentral is Arizona's most visited local Web site, attracting more than 54 million page views per month.
The people have spoken. We here at McFarlane Toys welcome not only geeks to our store, but people of all walks of life looking for a very cool place to spend some time and pick up some action figures.
Our new flagship retail store located at the Westgate City Center in Glendale, Ariz. is scheduled to open this summer. (To read more about it, go here.)
Things are progressing nicely, and today we've got a sneak peek of the latest development -- the McFarlane signs have been installed.
The Westgate store promises to be more than just a place to pick up action figures. It will be a shopping destination. Keep it tuned to Spawn.com for updates as they become available.

Women seem to be worried about pre-e and how the L&D will go, I know I was. I think we should have a birth stories forum... or is that covered in the tell your story part?
