Aliens vs. Predator PC and Napoleon: Total War Incorporate Steamworks, Require SteamAll digital and retail copies of Napoleon: Total War and Aliens vs. Predator PC will pack Steamworks integration, publisher SEGA and digital retailer Valve announced today, meaning that both will require players to have installed Valve's Steam platform.
Both games will utilize the Steamworks platform for achievements, matchmaking, leaderboards, stats, and server-side Cloud data storage, explained Valve. Aliens vs. Predator launches February 16, with Napoleon: Total War coming February 23.
SEGA utilized Steamworks with the last Total War entry, Empire, joined by the likes of Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War II and Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2. But while Valve claims that "Steamworks makes DRM obsolete," other retailers and distributors have described it as a "Trojan Horse," specifically taking issue with its integration into Modern Warfare 2 whilst continuing to sell other Steamworks-enabled games.

Waitress CeCe Bruce was working her Wednesday morning shift at an Indianapolis Steak 'n Shake. She wasn't having the best of days until she discovered a customer had left a $446 tip on a $5.97 bill. That generous tipper, a regular identified only as "Miss Jo," didn't bother offering Bruce an explanation, but was very insistent that she accept the money nonetheless. "I said 'Oh my gosh Miss Jo, I'm not taking that!'" Bruce recalled. "And she said, 'Yes, you're taking it' and I said no and she said 'You need to take it.'"
The restaurant's general manager Greer Gooley says Bruce deserves it. "She stays late, comes in early. Whenever we need her, she's here," he said. "It just lets servers know that you work hard and it does pay off. There are people out there that [if] you do your job people reward you for it."
Really???? How about just giving the girl a raise.... mr manager dude.

Second verse, just like the first
It's Friday, it's the end of a long week, it's hot and humid and hardly anybody wants to work. Let's cut right to the chase today, reaching back to the wine rack to follow up on Wednesday's report with yet another crisp, refreshing Prosecco.
Labeled "Jeio" from the respected sparkling wine producer Desiderio Bisol in Valdobbiadene, one of the leading villages of the Prosecco-producing region, it's lightly carbonated and bone-dry, a perfect recipe for warm-weather enjoyment.

Desiderio Jeio Prosecco Brut ($12.99)
Clear and very pale, this lightly sparkling Prosecco shows a distinct brass-green glint. A frothy mousse falls back fast, but a modest stream of bubbles persists. Its fresh aroma is focused on citrus, lemon and lime. Tingly carbonation tickles the palate in a flavor that's crisp and fully dry (as the borrowed French term "brut" suggests), and relatively light at a claimed 11.5% alcohol. U.S. importer: VIAS Imports Ltd., NYC
(June 15, 2006)
FOOD MATCH: I like Prosecco very much with Asian fare; it was an ideal match with a home-stir-fried batch of Cantonese shrimp with lobster sauce.
VALUE: No quarrel with a price in the lower teens for a sparkling wine of this quality. Fine value.
WHEN TO DRINK: Like most Proseccos, it will keep on a wine rack or cellar for a year or so, but it's best drunk up fresh.
Prosecco = "Pro-sec-co"
The Spumanti Bisol Desiderio e Figli Website contains in-depth information and lots of pictures of the winery and its wines. It's available in Italian, German and English.
Compare prices and locate vendors for Desiderio Bisol Prosecco on Wine-Searcher.com.

Is Deer Antler Spray Allowed in Canada?
Yes deer antler spray is available to Canadians. Deer Antler Spray Shipped to Canada and Australia can be found here! It's important to only stick with a high quality deer antler spray like the one in the link. Many deer antler sprays are cheap and will not work well!
Canadians Can Now Build Muscle With Deer antler Spray!
Source: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Velvet_antler
"Velvet antler refers to the whole cartilaginous antler in a precalcified stage, rather than the velvety "skin" on growing antlers. It is an ingredient in traditional Chinese medicine.
Deer velvet antler can be divided into sections, each of which is used for different medical purposes in traditional Chinese medicine. The upper section, called a wax piece, is used as a growth tonic for children. The middle section, called a blood piece, is used to treat adults with arthritis and related disorders. The bottom section, called a bone piece, is used for calcium deficiency and geriatric therapies.[1] The tip is the most expensive and sought-after part of the antler.
Moose, elk and deer produce new antlers yearly (primarily males, except in caribou/reindeer). The stags are not harmed or killed for the velvet antler. In some countries, such as Australia and New Zealand, deer are subject to local anesthesia and restrained during antler removal, and the procedure is supervised by licensed veterinarians. Typically, the antler is cut off near the base after it is about two-thirds of its potential full size, between 55 to 65 days of growth, before any significant calcification occurs. The procedure is generally done around June in the Northern Hemisphere and December in the Southern Hemisphere.[2]
Exceptionally large elk antlers can weigh 50 lb (22.6 kg) for a pair. These grow rapidly from about March or April until July (again, Northern Hemisphere).
Most of the world's supply of velvet antler comes from red deer and elk or wapiti, including a large deer farming industry in New Zealand. New Zealand is the world's largest producer of deer velvet antler, making 450 tons of deer velvet antler per year. China produces 400 tons annually. Russia produces 80 tons annually. United States and Canada each produce 20 tons annually.[3]
Due to the size and quality of Canadian and American elk antlers, they have been a preferred source of velvet for Canada and the United States (the other countries primarily produce deer velvet antler from deer).
Traditionally, in Asia, the antler is dried and sold as slices. These slices are then boiled in water, usually with other herbs and ingredients, and consumed as tea. In the West, antler is dried and powdered, and consumed in capsule form as a dietary supplement. The product has been at the center of multiple controversies with famous athletes allegedly using it for performance enhancement purposes.[4] In September, 2013, the headquarters of SWATS, an infamous distributor of deer antler velvet spray and other controversial products, was raided and ordered to shut down by Alabama's attorney general citing "numerous serious and willful violations of Alabama's deceptive trade practices act".[5][6]"

As the global leader in domain names, Verisign powers the invisible navigation that takes people to where they want to go on the Internet.
Verisign's infrastructure services help to ensure that your organization's websites are reliable and always available.
Verisign provides in-depth analysis, insight and response recommendations to help keep businesses and government organizations ahead of new and evolving cyber threats and vulnerabilities.
As the Internet continues to expand, Verisign is committed to creating and driving advancements that keep the Internet fast, safe, and reliable for all users.
Analyzing your website's performance can be overwhelming in the beginning. However, not tracking and measuring your audience's online behavior means you are flying blind. You aren't able to determine what is working (and what isn't), where to invest your time or money, and where there are opportunities for optimization.
When analyzing your website, we recommend you start with something that's simple and free. It's also good practice to remember these key points before you dig into any metrics:
Now that you are ready to get started, here are some recommendations on key metrics to help you better understand how your site is performing:
Your websites conversion rate (CR) is the ratio of visitors who successfully complete an action that achieves your site's objective. This action can be anything from downloading a report, completing a Web form, or making a purchase.
Here's a simple example on how to calculate CR:
A good conversion rate tends to hover around one to three percent. So, if your conversion rate is lower than one percent, you should reevaluate your pages as there is room for improvement.
Keywords are specific words and phrases that bring users to your website through search. Identifying these words and phrases is critical and should be monitored regularly. Why?
According to Keyword Discovery, over 80 percent of all online transactions begin as a keyword search on a search engine.
Knowing what your target audience is searching for is essential to your site's optimization, and will also help uncover any missing gaps in content that users may be looking for that's not available on your site.
The Top Visited Pages are a compiled list of the most viewed Web page on your site, in descending order.
Knowing your top visited pages will provide you with a starting point of where you should focus your optimization efforts.
Pages Per Visit (PPV) measures how many Web pages a particular user (or group of users) views on your site in one visit.
This metric is an excellent indicator in determining the quality of your site's content and how easily a visitor can navigate.
How to calculate PPV:
The Entry Page is the first impression a visitor sees when landing on your site.
Most people assume that the only entry page is your homepage, but this is not true. Viewers can initially land on any of your site's pages and in a number of ways - from a search engine or banner ad, to a link from another website or typing directly into the browser.
Identifying which of your pages are likely entry pages can help you optimize your content based on your intended audience.
The Exit Page is the last page your visitor was on before leaving your site.
When you initially designed your site, you should have identified one or more paths you wanted your visitor to follow. Actually knowing the top exit pages will help you determine if visitors are reaching the pages you intended, for example a confirmation page.
Any pages that are not directing visitors to complete your intended path should be further examined.
This information will provide you with an overview of the type of traffic that is being driven to your site. Visitors generally fall under these categories:
Carefully analyzing how these different groups convert will help you make sound decisions on where to spend your next marketing dollar.
Reviewing the percentage of new versus returning visitors helps establish if you are retaining customers.
It also helps you gain an understanding of how many times a customer interacts with your business before purchasing.
Though, it is important to take into consideration the goals of your site. If you have an ecommerce site, you want people to come back and purchase again. But if you own a restaurant, the goal of your site may only be to have a customer find your menu and hours of operation.

Teething babies are miserable. Think of how much it must hurt to get all those teeth. Poor babies. it usually begins around 6 months. You know when it's happening they start to drool a lot, they're fussier than usual, and they are constantly chomping on anything they can get in their mouths to relieve pressure.
My girls are going through that right now. The pediatrician says it's okay to give babies Tylenol or ibuprofen to help fussy babies, the nurse gave us a very handy chart to let us know how much of each babies can have because the package says to ask your doctor for babies under 2. The doctor also told us not to use the teething gel that many moms use to numb baby's gums.
Benzocaine is the numbing agent in teething gel like Orajel and it has been found to be dangerous to babies, but hasn't been banned in the U.S. yet. It can actually cause a deadly disorder called,Methemoglobinemia, which is a blood disorder which causes the body to accumulate too much hemoglobin so it can reduce the blood's ability to carry oxygen. The risk is small, but is it worth it? I think not.
The best way to deal with a teething baby is to let them chew on those chilled teething rings...not frozen. If you want to give them something frozen try freezing a washcloth. There are teething pacifiers now if your baby likes pacifiers. Make sure your fingers are clean if you're going to let them chew on them. Gum massage can also help if your baby will allow it.
Teething sucks for everyone, but it only lasts a little while so you'll get through it.

DARRINGTON, Wash. (AP) - Washington authorities say the official death toll from a devastating mudslide remains at 16, with eight additional bodies located but not recovered.
Snohomish County Emergency Management Director John Pennington says Wednesday that the number of people missing or unaccounted for dropped Wednesday from 176 to 90.
He says the number of missing has been fluctuating, but authorities were able to eliminate 140 people who had been reported missing.
In addition there are 35 other people whose status is unknown.
(Copyright 2014 The Associated Press. All rights reserved. This material may not be published, broadcast, rewritten or redistributed.)
Officials are working off a list of 176 people unaccounted for, though some names are thought to be duplicates, and the number should decrease. Snohomish County Emergency Management Director John Pennington says they'll have a revised figure later Wednesday.
Two additional bodies were recovered Tuesday, while eight more were located in the debris field from Saturday's slide 55 miles northeast of Seattle. That brings the likely death toll to 24, though authorities are keeping the official toll at 16 until the eight other bodies are recovered.
THIS IS A BREAKING NEWS UPDATE. Check back soon for further information. AP's earlier story is below.
With search and cadaver dogs leading the way, rescuers using small bulldozers and their bare hands pushed through sludge strewn with splintered homes and twisted cars to find 10 more bodies in the debris of a Washington state mudslide, authorities said.
Despite the grim discoveries as the search entered its fifth day Wednesday - and the likelihood that more bodies will be found - officials were still hoping to find survivors.
"We haven't lost hope that there's a possibility that we can find somebody alive in some pocket area," said Snohomish County District 21 Fire Chief Travis Hots.
Two bodies were recovered Tuesday, while eight more were located in the debris field from Saturday's slide 55 miles northeast of Seattle, Hots said. That brings the likely death toll to 24, though authorities are keeping the official toll at 16 until the eight other bodies are recovered.
With scores still missing, authorities are working off a list of 176 people unaccounted for, though some names were believed to be duplicates.
Authorities said that number will change because more people have called in since the nearby logging town of Darrington's power was restored Tuesday.
Hundreds of rescuers and heavy equipment operators slogged through the muck and rain, following the search dogs over the unstable surface.
"Going on the last three days the most effective tool has been dogs and just our bare hands and shovels uncovering people," Hots said. "But the dogs are the ones that are pinpointing a particular area to look, and we're looking and that's how we're finding people."
A volunteer was injured Tuesday when he was struck by debris blown by a helicopter's rotor. The man was transported to a hospital for evaluation, but the injuries appeared minor, Snohomish County sheriff's spokeswoman Shari Ireton said in a statement.
As the increasingly desperate search progressed, reports surfaced that warned of the potential for dangerous landslides in the community.
A 2010 report commissioned by Snohomish County to comply with a federal law warned that neighborhoods along the Stillaguamish River were among the highest-risk areas, The Seattle Times reported.
The hillside that collapsed Saturday outside of the community of Oso was one highlighted as particularly dangerous, said the report by California-based engineering and architecture firm Tetra Tech.
"For someone to say that this plan did not warn that this was a risk is a falsity," said report author and Tetra Tech program manager Rob Flaner.
A 1999 report by geomorphologist Daniel Miller, although not about housing, raises questions about why residents were allowed to build homes in the area and whether officials had taken proper precautions.
"I knew it would fail catastrophically in a large-magnitude event," though not when it would happen, said Miller, who was hired by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers to do the study. "I was not surprised."
A year later, the U.S. Army Corps of engineers warned in another study that lives would be at risk if the hillside collapsed, The Daily Herald of Everett reported.
Residents and county officials were focused on flood prevention, even after a 2006 landslide that did not reach any homes.
"We were just trying to stabilize the river so we could save the community from additional flooding," said Steve Thomsen, the county's public works director.
Snohomish County Emergency Department director John Pennington said local authorities were vigilant about warning the public of landslide dangers, and homeowners "were very aware of the slide potential."
In fact, the area has long been known as the "Hazel Landslide" because of landslides over the past half-century. The last major one before Saturday's disaster was in 2006.
"We've done everything we could to protect them," Pennington said.
Steven Swanson, 66, lived in the slide area for several years in the 1980s before moving down the road to Darrington.
"I've been told by some of the old-timers that one of these days that hill was going to slide down," said Swanson, who now lives in Northport in northeast Washington. "County officials never said anything to me about it while I lived it there, just the old-timers who grew up there."
Predicting landslides is difficult, according to a study published by the U.S. Geological Survey in 2012. One challenge is estimating the probability of a slide in any particular place.
Homeowners insurance typically does not cover landslide damage, but customers can purchase such coverage, said Karl Newman, president of the NW Insurance Council, a trade group in the Northwest.
One of the authors of the USGS report, Jonathan Godt, a research scientist with the agency in Colorado, said landslides don't get that much attention because they often happen in places where they don't hit anything.
But with Americans building homes deeper into the wilderness, he said, "there are more people in the way."
Le reported from Seattle. Associated Press writers Jason Dearen in San Francisco; Lisa Baumann in Seattle; P. Solomon Banda in Darrington, Wash.; and photographer Elaine Thompson in Oso, Wash., contributed to this report. Researcher Rhonda Shafner contributed from New York.
Will property owners receive insurance or other compensation from the damage?Fewer than 1 percent of homeowners in Washington state have insurance against landslides, according to Karl Newman, president of the Northwest Insurance Council.
Newman said 4,700 of properties — homeowners and businesses — in the state have such coverage. There are 1.5 million single family homes, according to the U.S. Census.
Known as a Difference in Conditions (DIC) policy, the policies cover disasters not include from the typical homeowner's or business policy. A DIC policy can cover landslide, mudflow, earthquake, and floods.
Cost of the policies vary by risk and are written not by familiar names in homeowner's insurance but by Lloyds of London and other companies.
Though it is unknown how many in Oso had such insurance, Newman said generally four factors seem to keep homeowners from signing up for the policies:
They underestimate the risks of a steep slope or other hazard.They expect Federal Emergency Management Agency's disaster coverage to pick up the costs. But grants are capped at $33,000, and the rest of support comes by way of low-interest loans. Also, FEMA flood insurance likely will not cover mudslides-landslide damage but might cover "mud flows," Newman said.They are optimistic and don't expect a bad event to happen to them. They don't want to spend what could be $1,000 or more for a DIC policy on a $300,000 house.
How are emergency crews searching?Officials are using maps that they have overlaid on the slide zone, and they have also talked to a number of local residents to get an idea of what specific locations — homes and other residences where people were known to be dwelling — should be targeted for searches.
Search and cadaver dogs often lead the way into the slide zone where emergency crews, including firefighters, police as well as local residents, are digging through the mess of earth and wood debris.
Bulldozers and smaller backhoes are on hand to help the digging, and helicopters to help in spotting and transportation.
"We haven't lost hope that there is a possibility that someone will be found alive," Hots, the fire chief, said late Tuesday. "We're going full steam ahead."
At times, searchers are climbing atop flattened houses and cutting holes in the structure with chain saws.
After President Barack Obama declared an emergency, the Federal Emergency Management Agency requested 18 California firefighters with special training in urban rescue to join the effort.
Members of the Urban Search and Rescue teams are specifically deployed to find people trapped after a disaster.
The work, however, is made difficult by the sheer amount of debris – an estimated 15 million cubic yards of muck and wreckage.
How do people move on and recover from a mudslide?If the history of such disasters is any guide, it could take weeks, months or even years for the community to completely recover from the tragedy.
On Wednesday, a family assistance center for relatives to identify victims will be set up in the nearby town of Arlington. A special crisis line has also been created where residents dealing with anguish can call.
State road crews are clearing snow from the Mountain Loop Highway, normally closed until Memorial Day, in order to give residents a route into the largest town in the area Darrington, which has been cut off by the slide.
People are also gathering at churches to pray for loved ones as well as healing and strength for the community.
The Red Cross as well as some local banks have are receiving donations to help the community recover.
Still, the emotional toll of survivors is hard to measure.
"Some of these are our friends, family of some people that serve with us." Jeff McClelland, a local volunteer firefighter helping find victims, told NBC station KING TV. "A close firefighter friend lost his wife and his granddaughter. That's tough."
He said he will continue working to free people trapped in the debris pile in order to give friends and neighbors a final resting place.
After that, the town might begin to move on.
Bill Dedman and Richard Esposito of NBC as well as The Associated Press contributed to this report.

Health Benefits of ZICO
For more than 4,000 years, coconut water has been revered as a natural source of nutrition, wellness, beauty and hydration. In times of famine and war, coconut water has been used as an intravenous fluid and saved many lives. It's the only natural substance that can be safely injected into the human blood stream. Now modern science has validated its effectiveness, especially as a natural sports drink.ZICO contains the five essential electrolytes your body needs to keep nerves firing, muscles moving and to help manage stress. One ZICO has more potassium than a banana - 15 times more than most sports drinks - to prevent cramping and promote recovery. Drink ZICO before or during a workout for the natural energy you need for optimal performance. After a workout, ZICO replenishes and re-hydrates you to speed recovery.
Frequently Asked Questions

How do you pronounce ZICO?"Zee-Koh"
Why is Potassium good for me?Potassium not only stops and prevents muscle cramps, it also regulates blood pressure, cardiovascular health and helps you recover more quickly from exercise and the stresses of daily life.
Is ZICO 100% Natural?Yes. Even our flavors are all-natural.
When should I drink ZICO? Anytime! Though its wonderful nutritional characteristics are most evident before, during or after exercise, coconut water is increasingly being used in smoothies and as a mixer for cocktails.

An avid athlete, Mark loved drinking fresh coconut after running, hiking, or hanging out at the beach. In 2004 he left a fast-track corporate career to pursue his dream of bringing the healthy, natural benefits of coconut water to consumers across the world.
As a company, Zico is on a mission to tell the world that Mother Nature made a better sports drink, ZICO Pure Premium Coconut Water. They're athletes. They drink ZICO daily (lots of it!), know it works and want to help others make the switch to ZICO too. Zico also thinks coconut water can become an important alternative agricultural product for the developing world and have committed to bring you ZICO in a socially and environmentally responsible and sustainable way.

Off the Chain Opinion
Far be it from me to lecture on politics. But allow me to lecture on politics.
WHITE WOMEN -- If the Republicans ever hope to regain the White House then I suggest they pay more attention to their own daughters.
Minorities voted monolithically for Obama, but they constitute just 21 percent of the entire electorate. White women, in contrast, are by far the largest voting bloc in America at nearly 40 percent. Consider that Obama's winning totals in Michigan broke down like this more or less: 40 percent of his votes came from white women, 30 percent from blacks, 20 percent white men, 10 percent other.
Women care about a range of things from education to food prices, wages to mortgage rates. But instead, every fourth year they're lectured from their waists down on the abortion thing. They're told Big Bird is a national welfare queen.
It's time to realize women are the majority: in the work force and in the classroom and increasingly as the heads of households. Want to win? Talk to them about better schools and better wages.
BIG CITY DEMOCRATS -- Don't you think it odd that a multi-billion-dollar war is being fought over a new international bridge from Canada that will land in Detroit but there is not a single political voice from city hall demanding more of a cut no matter who builds one?
Can you imagine Coleman Young or Richard Daley of Chicago sitting on their hands while outsiders decide the contours of their future? What's the long-term payout for Detroit, which is threatened with insolvency? Where are the guarantees on toll revenues or the construction of future shipyards that will bring sustained real paying jobs? This calls for big-city brass knuckles, not manicured nails.
I'm just sayin'.

Howdy fellow Hoosiers and others who live close! I work with the March of Dimes in Indy. In 2002, I developed HELLP at 25 weeks. My daughter was delivered by emergency c-section just a few days later. She weighed 1lb, 10oz. Today, she is a beautiful, healthy 3 year old. On November 15th, we are holding a candlelight vigil and prematurity roll-call on the canal in downtown Indianapolis. We are looking for names of premature babies to read off. Each name that we read off will have a candle lit in that child's honor. We need the name, number of weeks premature, date of birth and date of death (if applicable). I would feel so honored if you could give me your children's names and I could add them to our list. Also, if you live close enough (and aren't on bedrest) PLEASE attend the candlelight vigil on the canal. You can get more information on this at www.marchofdimes.com/indiana
If you'd like to add your child's name, just respond to my message.

The fourth season of this groundbreaking series, with a cumulative audience of over 45 million viewers, delves deep into the real story behind twelve of America's most dangerous gangs – a world rarely seen by the uninitiated.
Volume 1: Highway to Hell / Devil's Fire / Divide and Conquer / Kill 'Em All
- HIGHWAY TO HELL: One of the most powerful Hispanic street gangs in Los Angeles, the Avenues joined forces with the infamous prison gang, the Mexican Mafia, maintaining almost seven decades of control over LA.
- DEVIL'S FIRE: A major dealer in the methamphetamine trade, the Pagans live secretly and nomadically, with 44 chapters spread along the east coast of the United States. Their weapon of choice? The axe-handle.
- DIVIDE AND CONQUER: Chicago's Latin Kings are the largest, most brutal, and most organized Latino gang in the country – their leader has successfully run the gang from behind bars for four decades.
- KILL 'EM ALL: The Best Friends have stalked Detroit since 1985. But everything changed when one of their most prolific hit men snitched, giving the Feds enough information to indict most of the gang's surviving members.
- BONUS FEATURE: Additional Footage.
Volume 2: Kill or Be Killed / Boys of Destruction / Aryan Terror / Silent Slaughter
- KILL OR BE KILLED: In Memphis, Tennessee, a select group of drug dealers and killers banded together to form the most notorious gang on the Mississippi Delta: the LMG or Love Murdering Gangsters.
- BOYS OF DESTRUCTION: St. Louis, Missouri is home to an estimated 10,000 gang members. The Boys of Destruction – or BOD – are one of the city's most notorious gangs, and the Horseshoe Posse one of its fiercest rivals.
- ARYAN TERROR: The Aryan Brotherhood of Texas is the largest prison gang in the Texas Department of Criminal Justice. Started as a means of survival, it has now spread to the Dallas suburbs, where members are regrouping after FBI crackdowns.
- SILENT SLAUGHTER: Colorado's largest motorcycle gang, the Sons of Silence, are notorious for gun-running, drug-dealing, partying, and pandemonium. Since its inception in the late 1960s, the gang has spread to over 36 chapters worldwide.
- BONUS FEATURE: Additional Footage
Volume 3: Killing Snitches / Everybody Killers / Dead Man Inc. / Biker Wars 2
- KILLING SNITCHES: The Hidden Valley Kings control Charlotte, North Carolina's cocaine, ecstasy, and marijuana trade, so much so that a task force was formed to take the gang down in 2003.
- EVERYBODY KILLERS: The Hoover Criminals are Portland, Oregon's most deadly and notorious gang. They're attitude is Hoovers against the world…and they'll kill anyone to prove it.
- DEAD MAN INC.: This whites-only gang started out as contract killers in Maryland's prison system. Soon Dead Men, Inc. had spread across the mid-Atlantic and northeastern United States, bringing with it a brand of terror never before seen.
- BIKER WARS 2: The Hell's Angels are the world's biggest bike gang and have dominated California since the 1960s. But one biker gang refused to bend to their will…the Mongols Motorcycle Club, setting off one of the biggest gang wars in history.
- BONUS FEATURE: Additional Footage

Fun Product. Awesome Customer Service!

About Me Educator, Parent
Comments about GeoSafari® Motorized Solar System:
My son loves the GeoSafari Morotized Solar System. He gets it out now and then to put it together and use it. I have also brought it to our preschool class to show them how the planets orbit the sun. Granted that they don't move in a perfect circle in real life but they get the idea that they move around. The planets themselves do not rotate on the machine while they orbit but you can educate on that fact. The replacement light bulbs are hard to find. The planets will still orbit the sun, it's just the sun that won't shine if the bulb is burnt out. Still useable. Jenna in customer service was so helpful in taking care of our questions and equipment inquiries!
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Disappointed Kid on Christmas
By Brandon
from Thousand Oaks, CA
About Me Parent
We thought this product would make for a good christmas gift for our son but after assembling this morning and making sure that the batteries & adaptor were working properly, we have come to the conclusion that one of the bulbs included was already burned out and that the motor simply does not work at all. Needless to say, he was very disappointed after realizing that the product was broken on arrival.
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend
Merchant response: This review does NOT brighten our day! Please email firstname.lastname@example.com so we can get your solar system spinning or replace it with one that does.
does not work properly
By jess
from la porte, tx
About Me Teacher
Bought this for my boyfriend at NASA. Expensive! Does not work properly because the motor drags and the stars projected to the ceiling are blurry. If it is supposed to be used in a classroom then the room must be in a closet. Very disappointed with purchase.
Merchant response: Hi Jess! Try playing with the distance from the ceiling in order to get the stars in focus - a little jiggering will get you seeing clearly!
Didnt keep real time orbit around sun
By Johnny B
from H-Town
About Me 220 lbs, 6'5, Blue green eyes, Collector, Education Oriented, Male, Thrifty
Beside the motor that is obviously a piece of trash from previous comments and my own motor failing. The 2 other gripes I have is that it could at least come with a power adapter for when the motor breaks down the planetarium will light up, instead of batteries, would lighten the sting of buying a poorly made motor. The last grip I have is where is the southern hemisphere dome for the planetarium part of it, would love to see those stars also. Just a little more and you guys got a hit!
Merchant response: Oh Johnny B, we're so sorry you're disappointed. It's a balancing act to create a product that gets kids excited about the solar system but doesn't cost an arm and a leg. We went with a separately available AC adapter (EI-8702) and a single speed orbit, rather than a real-time orbit, to keep the price down, but a real-time orbit is definitely on our wish list, too!
I am so disappointed!

About Me Educator
Just set this up for my 4th grade classroom. Not too difficult to set up but when I turned the motor on it didn't work--not even a buzz. How sad. I'm just thankful that I was not doing it with my students as I would have hated to see their sad faces.
Merchant response: Jo this is terrible news! Please look for an email from us offering a replacement - we aim for "stellar" service, not disappointment!

Motorised Solar System
By Al the magician
from Preston, England, UK
I was excited when I bought the product for my son as it looked very educational and as he is being taught about planets in school it was an ideal gift choice this Christmas. I was unable to remove the very poor quality screw in the battery compartment and therefore my son never got to use the present on Christmas morning/afternoon/evening. I will now have to travel back into town and all the bustle to get a refund. Please please please get a different factory to manufacture the toys. China may be cheapest but as I found out its not always best! Thank God that there was no lead paint on the toy!!!!!!!!!!!!
Merchant response: Oh, Al, we'll go to the moon and back to solve this problem for you! Please look for an email from us offering a replacement.

UNDATED (WSAU) - The drought is still having an impact, and right now, it's most noticable in the shipping industry.
With water levels falling again, the American Waterways Operations and Waterways Council warns commerce downstream on the Mississippi River could come to a halt as soon as next week. The U.S. Coast Guard says it is confident the nation's largest waterway will remain open, despite the effects of the worst drought in decades.
The council says even if the river is open, additional limits on barges will stop most commercial traffic in the southern states. The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers reports ice on the northern Mississippi has reduced the flow more than expected.
New limits could go into effect by January 6th.
