Morning Star Click 1/2" x 5" Antique Click Strand Bamboo
Click here for detailed information.
Morning Star Bamboo Flooring is one of the best bamboo floors on the market today. It is produced from old growth bamboo reeds that are at least 4 years old, thereby increasing hardness. Morning Star Bamboo Flooring creates a naturally beautiful and ecologically friendly product that evokes a feeling of luxury.
Quick Highlights:
To make strand bamboo, shredded bamboo fibers are compressed under extreme heat and pressure. This manufacturing process yields flooring that is even harder and more dense than traditional bamboo floors. Available in a variety of colors to complement and décor, all Morning Star strand bamboo products are finished with premium coating and backed by a 30 year warranty.
And, since bamboo is a naturally sustainable grass that re-grows spontaneously after harvest, you can feel good about making an environmentally friendly flooring decision.
It's simple...

QUALITY GUARANTEE: This flooring is constructed and tested to meet or exceed industry standards for emissions.

Best Uses
Love it. Used it for a house that I am flipping. I could have used the cheaper laminate, but I believe people today are looking for higher quality products that are sustainable.
Best Uses
Two days to install, first day to prep, remove the old carpet, padding, staples, etc. next day to install 300 sq ft. My 18 yoa grandson and I did it without any prior expierence.
Best Uses
went down well. only 2 boards out of 7-boxes (49 total) arrived damaged. quick, easy. no need for install kit due to construction. will likely install more of same in other rooms.
Best Uses
I had this product professionally installed.
Looks beautiful in our living room!
Best Uses
This is some of the most beautiful flooring I've ever seen. We have installed 1800 feet of it in our house. The instillation was very easy! Everyone who sees it flips because it is absolutely gorgeous! No need to say more.
Best Uses
Installed flooring in Dining Room and Foyer areas and it looks great. The underlayment and flooring were fairly easy to install. Only time will tell how well it holds up, but it seems good so far. Also very easy to clean up, even on the seams that were glued.
Service and delivery comments:
Delivery was within timeframe that was communicated. I was also notified when they were on the way. The delivery guys were great and went the extra mile to deliver it into my garage.
Best Uses
Flooring was so easy to install, did 600sq in a day with ease using the 1/2" Floating Lock Style. Did not have any boards with warpage at all. Very impressed with how hard it is, went through 2 saw blades due it it's hardness. I would highly recommend this product!
Best Uses
This is a great product and literally transformed the look and feel of my house. It is a bit pricy, but well worth it.
Best Uses
This beautiful floor was extremely easy to install. It snaps together very well and does not require nails or glue.
The black stain used to give it an antique look appears to have been applied by a machine. There are distinct brush marks at the end of most of the black streaks. This gives the floor an artificial look - like cheap laminate. I would have returned it except for the "restocking fee". Now I just don't look at it too closely. It looks OK once it is down.

:04 a.m. by Tom King
Read a great piece in on grantland.com yesterday by a writer named Charles Pierce. He's written some excellent stuff before but this one really got me. His premise was that those of us who grew up watching "The Wide World of Sports" on ABC have a deeper appreciation of the Winter Olympics. That we cherish and relish great competition even its in a sports we know little or nothing about. If you grew up a sports fan in the United States you feel you know baseball, football & basketball. Message boards and call in shows are filled with "experts" who know why coaches are morons and which players should be drafted where and the intracacies of the Cover Two defense. But those of us who watched Wide World on Saturdays were also exposed to ski jumping and bobsledding and barrel jumping and demolition derby and cliff diving and on and on and on. He believes and I do to that Jim McKay would have loved shor track speedskating and snowboarding and skeleton. The idea of Wide World was that competition is competition no matter if you even know the rules of the particular sport you are watching. Which brings me to my Saturday afternoon this past weekend. I was hunkered down watching Olympic Hockey (a sport I know a bit about) when they switched over to nordic skiing (which I know little about). Al Trautwig proceeded to tell me that the womens nordic ski relay was probably going to be a win for Norway. They hadnt lost a relay race since 2009 and were the heavy favorite. But they fell behind on the second leg and never caught up...but that wasnt the story. When Charlotte Kalla, skiing the anchor leg for Sweden started her segment, she was 25 seconds behind the leading skiiers from Finland and Germany, with their rival Norway in 4th. She was basically skiing for Bronze...but she wasnt going to settle for Bronze. With the King and Queen of Sweden looking on Kalla began her pursuit which cut the deficit to 13 seconds with 2.5 k to go. As they came to the final curve she was still 3rd but the leaders were running out of gas. She moved into first with a burst of speed that actually brought me out of my chair and brought a Holy Sh#* to my lips. And won. Competiton...from people I had never heard of before Saturday actually brought me out of my chair. That's why I love sports. And thats why I love the OlympicsBTW-Al Michaels compared the Norway-Sweden rivalry in Nordic skiing to the Packers-Bears or Red Sox-Yankees. To put things in perspective Norways biggest newspaper labeled the day the Greatest Disaster in Sports History. Oh, and the Swedish men beat Norway and everybody else to win Gold on Sunday.

Hey all you Moda Lovers! It's Bradie, from A Quilty Kind of Girl here once again to share another Moda Precut pattern. When I first saw this gorgeous line of fabric designed by Sweetwater, I knew it was time to make a boyish quilt. The very next morning I woke with inspiration, and this quilt idea began.
Ready to have some PURE fun? ;)
|For this project you will need:
One Pure Layer Cake
TWO Pure Charm Packs
Half yard of Natural and Craft # 5435-13 for inner border
1 3/4 yards Cocoa Baby Dots # 5436-20 for outer border and binding
4 1/4 yards backing fabric.
You may also purchase all the fabrics you need for this quilt from Fat Quarter Shop!
|Begin by selecting two layer cake squares with good contrast. Place one on top of the other, both with right sides of fabric facing down. I chose to keep the lighter fabric on top, so the marking lines (explained in next step) will show a little better.
Choose 36 layer cake squares in TOTAL which will yield 36 quilt blocks.
Set aside 2 layer cake squares to use in your borders.
|Draw a horizontal line through the center of the layer cake (at the 5 inch mark.) You will use this as a reference line shortly.
|Cut the pair of layer cakes in half VERTICALLY. Do not use the drawn line.
|Draw four marking lines on the layer cake as shown in the picture. These will be used as cutting lines.
|Cut on the drawn lines to separate the outer corners from the diamond shaped center.
|Take the diamond shaped centers and trim their width down to 4 5/8 inches. I trimmed them all from the inside (as shown in picture) but also experimented afterwards with cutting the outer edge. I found that it does not matter which side you trim on. The shape will turn out either way.
|Just for fun... hard to believe this will become an entire quilt!!
|Switch out the center diamonds from each layer cake with the contrasting fabric. I like to lay them out and see how the fabrics look together.
|Time to stitch these blocks together! It does not matter if you stitch the bottom corners first, you may stitch in any order you like. What DOES matter, is the triangle overhang. Note in the picture, how the extra length or the bottom corner triangle extends to the outside of the block. Arrange the fabrics as shown and stitch from the outer corner inwards. Also keep in mind that you are stitching BIAS edges (which means they can easily stretch out of shape) so stitch slowly and carefully. No racecar sewing on these seams please! :)
|When you stitch the top corners, you will leave the overhang in the center, as shown in the picture. Begin your stitching from the inner side to finish at the outer corner.
|Once you have attached the four corners, you will have two halves, which you may simply stitch straight up the center....
|Which will finish up looking just like this! At this point, it is wise to trim away the excess 'dog ears' and trim the block to measure 8.5 inches wide by 8.75 inches tall. Yes. It is true. Your block will not be a square, but slightly rectangular!
Make 36 blocks in total.
|Layout the blocks in 6 rows of 6 blocks. I played with the layout a wee bit, but found in the end.... they look good regardless of where they land! Sew your blocks together into the 6 rows. Finish the inner body of the quilt by sewing the 6 rows together.
|Cut 3 strips of white inner border fabric which measure 2.5 inches in width. Sew the 3 strips to each other, then cut TWO strips which finish at 2.5 inches by 49.5. THESE WILL BE THE SIDE INNER BORDERS. Pin, and sew to the quilt sides.
|Cut 3 more strips of white inner border fabric 2 inches in width. Again, sew the three strips together, and then cut TWO strips which finish at 2 inches by 52.5. THESE WILL BE YOUR TOP/BOTTOM INNER BORDERS. Pin and sew to the quilt top/ bottom.
This difference in strip width will bring the quilt back to a square. Which will make adding the next borders MUCH easier. :)
|Now to play with our charm squares!
You will 52 charm squares in total. Pair each charm with another high contrasting charm.
|Draw a vertical line down the center (2.5 inch mark) of one charm from each pair. Place charms together with right sides facing.
|Sew a quarter inch seam on each side of the marked centerline. I chain pieced mine and did all the left side seams first, then turned it around to stitch all the seams on the remaining side.
|Here's a closer look at the chain-pieced charms. Trim apart all your charms.
|Cut on the marked line to create TWO (2) color charms.
|Sew together 13 two color charms to create a keyboard border. Make FOUR strips in total.
|Attach one keyboard border to the top, and another to the bottom of the quilt.
|Using one of the reserved layer cake squares from earlier, cut the 10 inch square, into FOUR 5 inch squares. Sew a 5 inch square to both ends of the two remaining keyboard borders. Sew these two borders to the sides of the quilt.
|Take the second reserved layer cake square, and cut it into FOUR 5 inch squares. Cut 8 strips of brown outer border fabric, 5 inches wide. Sew the strips together in pairs, and trim each one to measure 5 by 61 inches.
|Pin and sew two borders to the top and bottom of the quilt. Sorry you can't see the borders very well.... they match my hardwood floors quite beautifully don't you think? :)
|Attach the 5 inch layer cake squares to each end of the two remaining border strips. Pin and sew these last two strips to the sides of the quilt.
Quilt as desired.
|The end result? A beautifully boyish cuddler size quilt which measures 71 inches square.

Hey...on the charm step for the borders...why don't you sew down the outside on both sides and cut in the middle? then you wouldn't have to do the step of drawing the line....just a thought...

Got this tent for my wife and I + the dog. I tend to be a minimalist, but needed something that would accomodate the dog as well. The two vestibules and entrances are great. Set-up is easy and this baby is sturdy - just what we needed.

Comments about Zia 3 Tent - 3 Person, 3 Season (w/Footprint & Gearloft):
First off this is 100% true and I'm not someone that is paid to write this. You might be able to tell by my writing skills. Anywho... I have to tell you that I researched so many 3 person 3 season tents forever. I choose this one because it seemed to fit most of my needs and it was at a fare price. I always felt like when I read the reviews that it rained on everybody the first time they took it out. Ha..I said. How could that be and I found it hard to believe. Well guess what, it did rain on us the second night we were out car camping. I told my girlfriend (who had to have an air mattress) that now I will be one of those who tells the same story....so what. I set the tent up at the house before we went out just because that is the smart thing to do. Plus I was excited to have my new tent. Ok the tent sets up pretty easy even with out the directions. Should be common since if you have looked at as many tents as I have. I liked that it came with a footprint...not that it was all that thick, but it did attach to the tent polls for a secure fit. The gear loft was fantastic except for the person on top (her) when you want a little sexytime. We did have a 9.5" air mattress in there. You will need to get more or even better steaks to guy out the tent. It came with 7 I think, but if you are going to camp more than 3 times a year it would be worth it. The ones that came with the tent are fine but why not buy the better ones and plus you will need to have more if you are in a very windy spot. We did the 4 corners of the tent and the front and back of the rain fly. We were out in the woods in Florida with a lot of mosquitoes. We saw them under the fly but they never got in the tent. FYI..it was me the pretty lady and two dogs in the tent for 3 night and 2 days. The weather was cool, and like I mentioned it rained on the 2nd day. When I woke up I did have some condensation on the inside of the rain fly but we did have sexytime and 2 dogs. The tent stayed warm with all of us in there. That was a good thing. Other people said they were cold. I don't remember there being any condensation the other mornings. Come on your in Florida ,and you don't expect to have condensation with all the humidity that we have here. Full bottle of wine tonight by the way. I like my tent! Are there better tents out there....for sure but for the [$] I paid. It works great.

The race for governor in New Jersey picked up steam on Tuesday when Newark Mayor Cory Booker officially endorsed state Sen. Barbara Buono, a Democrat, for governor, while Gov. Chris Christie headed to Lakewood.
Buono and Booker hit the Brick City's Ironbound district in the afternoon for a "listening tour."
"I am friends with Gov. Chris Christie, but I support planned parenthood, marriage equality, earned income tax credit and regional environmental greenhouse gas agreements. On policy issues, there are differences between me and the governor," said Booker during Good Day NY.
Buono and Booker visited a law office, real estate office, tuxedo shop and diner in the largely Portuguese neighborhood. Buono said Christie's policies have harmed residents of New Jersey's cities.
"I'll be stumping with her in Newark going door-to-door. Buono embodies those (principals I believe in) more than Gov. Christie," said Booker.
Christie was scheduled to meet with a group of senior citizens in an event that's not technically a campaign event, then meet with Orthodox Jewish leaders in one that is a campaign stop.
A recent poll showed Christie with a 36-percentage-point lead over Buono.

It's the hormone that can effect you from head to toe, testosterone. Low testosterone can cause fatigue, bone loss and even hot flashes. Mike Moyad a Doctor from the Michigan Institute of Urology says "Men do need testosterone and I can tell you, fatigue is a real problem, even men get hot flashes when their testosterone gets too low, just like women do. The drop off is much more gradual, it's about 1-2 percent a year after the age of 35 or 40 but very gradually, not quickly like you see in women going through menopause."
The reality is, this hormone is linked to sexual desire and a whole lot more- healthy bones, muscle mass even memory. If it is a little low- there are things you can start doing right now to give it a boost.
"People need to realize how testosterone levels are tied into your lifestyle." Says Urologist Dr. Michael Lutz. Lifting weights is one of the ways to naturally boost testosterone. Dr. Moyad focuses on preventive medicine and says there are other ways men can take control "There's so much you can do...lose a little bit of weight, become aerobically active-30 minutes a day, with runners we're seeing higher testosterone levels as they lose weight. With sleep, we just found out last year, If you're deprived of sleep five hours or less a night your testosterone can drop as much as 10 or 15%."
A blood test will determine if you're testosterone is low and this will be one of the screenings happening at the Michigan Institute of Urology's 2nd annual men's health event this Saturday.
Its a free event that's meant to give men a chance to meet with doctors and learn how to make a difference.
Screenings will consist of a PSA, testosterone, glucose and cholesterol just to name a few. We are also offering free dental and oral examination screenings by University of Detroit School of Dentistry, free vision testing and counseling will be available for depression screening. We'll see you Saturday at the 2nd annual men's health event at Ford Field.

As New Year's quickly becomes a distant memory for many people, resolutions typically fall by the wayside. Ambitious goals like getting organized and exercising every day of the week may have faded as old habits set back in. The Colorado Egg Producers (CEP) Association reminds Coloradans that eating healthy doesn't have to be tough resolution to keep. When thinking about healthy eating, most people focus on foods such as fruit, vegetables, whole grains and lean proteins, but what about eggs? As a powerhouse of nutrition that is often overlooked, one egg provides the 13 essential nutrients and high quality protein required to help you achieve and maintain weight loss goals year round.
"Adding eggs to your diet is one of the easiest and most affordable ways to maintain a healthy lifestyle," said Terry Tormohlen, a Colorado egg farmer and CEP member. "The nutrients in eggs provide vitamins and minerals that supply energy for physical activity, as well as the quality protein necessary for muscle development after a workout. Additionally, buying eggs locally produced by CEP members ensures that you and your family are enjoying a safe and wholesome product. We encourage you to continue to support your Colorado egg farmers and buy local."
Eggs are packed with an abundance of nutrients. One egg has 13 essential vitamins and minerals, high-quality protein including all nine essential amino acids, as well as healthy unsaturated fats. At a mere 75 calories each, eggs will fit seamlessly into any healthy diet.
Below is a list of twelve ways eggs can help you to lose weight and feel better for the rest of 2013 courtesy of thinkegg.com and the American Egg Board.
As part of a new health regimen eggs will…
CEP is a membership organization representing seven farms throughout the state. CEP is committed to doing what's right for its community, as illustrated by the regular donation of thousands of eggs to food banks throughout Colorado. Local egg farmers take great pride in providing eggs to Coloradans. We are also proud to offer consumers the choice between cage, cage-free eggs, organic, nutrient enhanced, brown and white eggs. You can find locally produced, fresh, wholesome and safe eggs in the dairy case of your favorite Colorado supermarkets.

OK, so it's been pointed out to me that I almost always write about films that I did not enjoy.
There are two reasons why. First, as I have explained before, I tend to watch a lot of bad movies. Therefore, it only follows that most of my reviews would be negative. The second reason for my tendency to dwell on poor cinema, however, is probably more important and difficult to admit: the fact is that I simply find it harder to write about things I actually like. Trying to defend something (which is what I feel like I'm doing) is more complicated than panning it. In such cases, it's like I have to take a stand; try to define for another person just what it is that I've seen in something to make me consider it worthwhile. Where should I begin? What reasons should I cite? How can I praise a film without fawning over it too much? What if someone DISAGREES with me??? It's much easier to argue about something and have the force that an aggressive edge gives you when you're coming from a negative position in the first place. Just watch or listen to any news pundit show to see proof of that....
Nevertheless, I have decided to bite the bullet and try to bring a little positivity to this blog by reviewing a GOOD movie for once. And just to ease myself into the idea, I'll stick to a film that means a little less to me. I still intend at some point to post blogs about my very FAVORITE films (which, for the record, include The Fisher King, and Ed Wood), but in this case I wanted to focus on something a little weirder. In fact, today's selection is a whole LOT weirder than your average fare. It's a brilliant gem called Forbidden Zone, which may in fact be THE weirdest movie I have ever seen.
Forbidden Zone (1982)
Netflix description:
"Welcome to the Sixth Dimension -- a topsy-turvy universe of frog butlers, topless princesses, machine gun-toting teachers, chicken boys, human chandeliers and the devil himself. They're all ruled by the sex-obsessed midget King Fausto, and his insane Queen. And everything is jet-propelled by Danny Elfman's catchy, inimitable tunes."
Once upon a time, members of a performance art group called "The Mystic Knights of the Oingo Boingo" sat down, had a long chat, and decided that it was time to expand their bizarre stage shows into the medium of film. With virtually no budget or professional motion picture experience behind them, these brave souls produced a trippy, sometimes-incomprehensible comedic musical that FilmThreat would one day refer to as "The Citizen Kane of Underground Movies". Of course, I'm talking about Forbidden Zone.
It's about a family that moves into a home in California's Venice area, and discovers a portal to another dimension in the basement. When daughter Frenchie finally gets bored enough to venture through that door, she's kidnapped by a sex-crazed king played by the midget from Fantasy Island (yes, Herve Villechaize ), and it's up to her uncle and brother to save her.
The great thing about this movie is how beautifully cheap it all is. The sets are obviously made of cardboard and construction paper...the sound is hilariously muffled...and the camera work, lighting, and sound mixing are all amateur-grade. Normally, these would all be bad things for a film, but here it actually works, since the people behind Forbidden Zone were, in fact, fundamentally talented. They give spirited, over-the-top performances, the likes of which we would expect to see from a fresh improv comedy troupe. The music is also deliciously catchy. Danny Elfman, who would go on to a hugely successful career doing music for film and television, composed the songs here (notice the similarities between the main themes for Forbidden Zone, and Dilbert the cartoon series, both of which were written by Elfman)...and of course his brother Richard Elfman, of Oingo Boingo fame, directs. Plus, the art design is inspired -- it reminds me of early Tim Burton (actually, remarkably similar to the old Beetlejuice Saturday morning show ). Watching Forbidden Zone is a chance to see experimental performance artists cut loose, goof around, and not give a darn what happens.
So many strange things happen here that it's hard to isolate examples, although I think the synopsis posted at the beginning of this review probably covers them well enough. I will say this, however: I decided that I truly loved Forbidden Zone when I first saw THIS scene, just a few minutes in:
Anyway, I found Forbidden Zone to be hilarious, innovative, and insane. Although it does start to drag a little towards the end, I cannot help but to love this movie for the geyser of creative brilliance that it is in its first 70 or so minutes. It is truly special.
5 out of 5.
**PS -- DO NOT watch the colorized version of this film. It is an abomination, as are all colorized versions of black and white pictures. **

Tahola didn't score a single point until 7:32 in the second quarter, as Colton easily defeated the Chitwhins 77-15 Thursday at the State B tournament in Spokane.
The Wildcats scored early and often, smothering Tahola's offense into submission. On the other end of the court, Colton had its way with everything they wanted. They shot 44 percent from the field and got impressive performance from Jenna Moser and Paige Vincent, both of whom scored 14 points in the win.
Colton, with bigger team size, out-rebounded Tahola 51-34 and committed just 12 turnovers to Tahola's 30.
The Wildcats play Friday in the semifinals against Wilbur-Creston, who beat Shoreline Christian 55-52 earlier in the day.

A woman was killed in a crash with a garbage truck as she pulled out into traffic in west suburban Geneva on Wednesday morning.
About 6 a.m. a woman driving a 2002 Saturn pulled out from a private drive onto the 200 block of East Fabyan Parkway, near its intersection with Nagel Boulevard, attempting to go west, according to Geneva Police Cmdr. Julie Nash. As the car entered onto Fabyan Parkway, it was struck by a garbage truck traveling eastbound.
The car was heavily damaged and the driver, 23-year-old Monica L. Warner of North Aurora, had to be extricated, police said. She was pronounced dead at the scene.
The 22-year-old driver of the garbage truck was treated at the scene, then taken to Delnor Community Hospital, police said.
The accident is under investigation by the Kane County Accident Reconstruction Team in conjunction with Geneva police. It was unknown as of late Wednesday morning if any charges or citations would be filed.
Geneva police had advised drivers to avoid Fabyan Parkway between Kirk Road and Route 25, but by about 10:50 a.m. the roadway had been reopened to traffic.

Gov. Pat Quinn says he isn't worried that he might be putting the state at a disadvantage in keeping grain giant Archer Daniels Midland Company in Illinois.
Quinn spoke to reporters following a business event at the University of Illinois-Chicago on Friday. He says he doesn't think any corporation should be seeking tax-break legislation in the state right now.
That's because the Chicago Democrat says Illinois' $100 billion pension crisis is paramount.
Quinn told The Associated Press Thursday that he wouldn't support ADM's requested $24 million tax break.
The company announced last week that it plans to move its headquarters and 100 jobs out of Decatur to a location with better global access.
Quinn says the company will still be keeping 4,400 jobs in Illinois.

Portal 2 Preview
Like all great mornings, waking up in the new living quarters at Aperture Laboratories begins with rigorous exercise. Look up, look down, and jump. Mandatory fitness and wellness exercise: passed with flying colors. Apparently fitness isn't as important as they let on at Aperture.
Even when it attempts to teach you the most basic mechanics of a first-person title, Portal 2 applies a thick layer of slapstick.
For the uninitiated: Portal 2 is the sequel to 2007's mind-bending teleportation puzzle game that was a critical, commercial, and cult hit. It was a game that birthed multiple internet memes and made people fall head over heels in love with a cube. The original was also an isolated experience, feeding players witty banter between the silent protagonist, Chell, and the disembodied voice of an intelligence system named GLaDOS.
These characters return in Portal 2; however, a supporting cast has been fleshed out to join them. Well, flesh is definitely the wrong word.
The new gameplay I saw featured the first few minutes of the game. The protagonist wakes to take the aforementioned fitness and wellness test on her fiftieth day of "suspension" at the Aperture Science Extended Relation Center. Following the test, Chell is sent back to bed. When she wakes again, her pristine wood-paneled room has now become coated with darkness and grime. This, according to a calm computerized male voice, is her 9,999,999+ day in hibernation. Clearly, something has gone awry.
This sets up her introduction to a character publisher/developer Valve has revealed in the past: Wheatly. This small eyeball-looking character is voiced by the delightful Stephen Merchant (Extras). It's easy to become immediately enamoured with Wheatly. Though Chell is still a silent hero, Wheatly manages to have complete conversations with her. Really, what you learn is that--if you let him--Wheatly will ramble on for ages.
"Please prepare for emergency evacuation," the calm voice from the room warns.
Letting out a shriek, Wheatly begs for you to remain calm and just prepare--he will get you out of there, he promises.
"Most test subjects do experience some cognitive deterioration after a few months," Wheatly tells Chell. "Now, you've been under for quite a lot longer and it's not out of the question that you have a very minor case of... serious brain damage."
In order to test for this minor case of serious brain damage, Wheatly asks Chell to speak. Press Space to talk the game flashes. Chell jumps.
"Okay, what you're doing there is jumping. You just... you just jumped," Wheatly explains. The crowd of PAX East 2011 attendees in the small, stuffy room explode with laughter.
To make things "easy," Wheatly asks Chell to utter a single word. "Say apple," he asks. Nothing happens. The screen flashes for the player to press the space bar again; however, remaining still leads Wheatly to ramble on for minutes, begging to hear the single word.
"We actually cut that short in this demo," a Valve rep told the crowd. "He can go on forever."
Unfortunately, the player doesn't have "forever" as the entire complex is being destroyed due to a a reactor core meltdown.
Wheatly attempts to move the room from its current location in order to save Chell from certain death, explaining that he's in some hot water for allowing the destruction to occur--killing the rest of the test subjects.
"Whose fault do you think it's going to be when management comes down here and finds 10,000 flipping vegetables?" he yells.
The player is then sent on a whirlwind tour of the crumbling structure Chell has been holed up in. The world around her is in shambles, everything is being destroyed, Wheatly won't stop talking, and it's all hilarious. The situation calms slightly as Wheatly attempts to drop Chell's holding cell onto a docking station. After crashing the mostly destroyed wireframe of the room into the wall, Wheatly announces that he was wrong. It's not a docking station, after all. It's just a wall.
"I'm going to attempt a manual override of the wall," he yells and begins rocking the cell into the wall attempting to break through.
Later, the demo shifts to a point in the game where players are introduced to another new character: Cave Johnson. Johnson--unlike any other character in the series--is an actual person; however, his appearance is just another voice within the complex at Aperture.
Johnson, voiced by J.K. Simmons (Spider-Man), is the founder and president of Aperture Laboratories.
His interaction works similar to that of GLaDOS from the original title, putting Chell through a range of tests. In the gameplay I saw, Johnson introduces Chell to one of Portal 2's new mechanics: the repulsion gel--a blue substance and repels the quiet character when she comes into contact with it.
"You get the gel," Johnson's voice-over tells Chell, referring to a deep pit covered in the blue sludge. "The last sonuva gun got blue paint!" he laughs. "All joking aside, that did happen. Broke both his legs."
There are dozens of moments included in the demo that I haven't mentioned. As you can gather from this preview, the focus at PAX East 2011 wasn't gameplay but the characters. One Valve rep labeled it as a sequence of "character moments."
There may be fear that Portal 2's story cannot hit the same mark it did when the original game launched in 2007. The original game's story and dialog was a genuine surprise. At least from what I've now seen, Portal 2 is attacking from the same humorous plateau. It looks and sounds great. Now, let's just get it on store shelves to confirm the entire package is a worthy successor to the original smash hit.
Portal 2 launches for the PC, Mac, PS3, and Xbox 360 on April 19.

My secrets to making really good basmati rice, fluffy and light and each grain separate: rinse it very well and then let it soak in a bowl of fresh water for 20 minutes. Put in a little butter and salt when you cook the rice. Steam gently for 15 minutes or until just tender. Then fluff with a fork and let it rest off heat for a few more minutes before serving.
Now, let's hear your basmati tips!

SAN FRANCISCO (Reuters) - Hewlett Packard Co
HP, in the midst of a restructuring that Chief Executive Meg Whitman has said will take years, is also struggling with intense competition in its servers and storage hardware division, the investment bank said in a research note.
Coupled with the need to re-invest any savings from its current overhaul in research and business development, its earnings may continue to come under pressure this fiscal year and beyond, Goldman said.
Wall Street's "consensus is attributing an unreasonably high probability to the turnaround's success and incorrectly assuming fundamentals have already bottomed," it wrote.
"In contrast, we believe EPS expectations could face downward revisions in coming quarters."
HP, the world's largest PC maker, has struggled with a fundamental erosion of demand for computers and printing supplies such as ink cartridges as consumers shift to mobile devices.
Whitman is pushing the company to re-focus on enterprise services, but there it goes up against heavy-hitters like IBM
Shares of HP, which gained more than 60 percent in 2013, traded at $21.85 at mid-day, down 6.3 percent.
