If you've been a reader of this blog for awhile, you've probably noticed that I am a big fan of two things: vegetables and tea. It is for this reason today that I am ecstatic to share my latest and greatest discovery with you: savory tea.
What the heck is savory tea? I'm so glad you asked!
Savory Tea is essentially savory blends of veggies combined with spices and tea infusions to create a soothing, comforting beverage. I know it sounds a little strange at first, but stick with me here because your entire world is about to change.
I was recently contacted by Numi and asked if I was interested in trying their new Savory Tea blends: broccoli cilantro, carrot curry, fennel spice, beet cabbage, spinach chive, and tomato mint. My answer? Absolutely. You had me at broccoli cilantro.
Over the past month I've been testing these out and let me tell you: I am in love. Living in Seattle means I am subjected to many cold, rainy grey days and I often drink a lot of tea just to stay warm and help me cope with the weather. What I loved about these blends is that they have the same comforting feeling as a hot cup of soup, but are just as easy to prepare as tea.
I will admit that at first it was a little strange to have a savory cup of tea because I'm used to sweeter blends like rooibus or my mate chai. However, once I knew what to expect, I began to find myself craving these, especially in the late afternoon when I typically want a snack. I don't think these are filling enough to use as a meal replacement, but they did help with cravings. These were also fabulous for traveling because they were convenient to have on-the-go since all you need is hot water to brew them.
I was so impressed with the teas that I asked the nice people at Numi if they'd be willing to let me host a giveaway so I could share these with all of you. I'm happy to announce that 5 lucky readers will get a chance to sample some savory teas of their own!
To enter: you must have a US mailing address (sorry to my international readers!) and use the Rafflecopter below for up to 4 chances to win. The giveaway will close on Monday, April 1st and the winner will be chosen randomly. Good luck! The giveaway is now closed. Thanks to all who entered! a Rafflecopter giveaway
Age-related macular degeneration is a major cause of blindness worldwide. With ageing populations in many countries, more than 20% might have the disorder.
Advanced age-related macular degeneration is associated with progressive visual impairment. It includes two subtypes:
Dietary anti-oxidant supplementation slows progression of the disease.
Treatment for neovascular age-related (wet) macular degeneration includes intraocular injections of anti-VEGF agents. The two commonly used anti-VEGF therapies, ranibizumab and bevacizumab, have similar efficacy.
Future treatments include inhibition of other angiogenic factors, and regenerative and topical therapies.
Hi everyone, I already have shared my reviews for Sensa weight loss product. In that post i had put some good things about it. However, more people are discussing about the failure of this product. This has made me think about if sensa is a scam or worth a product. In this online arena, no one would wish to be called with the word "SCAM". I read numerous posts written on the web about sensa scam and reports against it. The main problem with this product is lack of positive results and negative customer feedbacks. In this blog post, I am sharing few of such posts about this magical sprinkle diet.
Is Sensa an Innovative solution or Scam?
Since the Sensa become available for people, many people claimed this as a unique and magical product for weight loss. Few people achieved their weight loss goals with the help of sensa diet, but many of others found it fail on its promise of immediate and easy weight loss. And addition to this sensa does not require you to change your current eating and nutritional habits, while this may lose weight but thing is that it will not solution for good health. The reason behind this, while your weight goes down, but this will not help you in lower your blood sugar, cholesterol, or blood pressure and therefore this product will not make you more healthier than you was before starting the Sensa Weight Loss program.
Sensa And FDA
All ingredients that are used in the formulation of sensa have already been established as being known to be safe. It is referred to as G.R.A.S. or Generally Accepted As Safe by FDA. According to website, as a food product it doesn't require FDA approval. But they does not say about safety of this product. But why this product is not approved by FDA?
Wrong Effects
The main criticism this product receives is about efficiency. For maintaining healthy weight we require good and healthy eating, exercise habit. And as sensa say's you can eat what you want, this create problem for consumers who think for weight loss but return to their unhealthy lifestyle resulting in weight gain. This product may trigger an allergic reaction if you are allergic to soy, so its important to take physician permission before using sensa if you have any food allergies.
Lack of Long Term Relief
The effect of sensa is not long lasting. As already discuss this product will not force to stop your favorite food but as you stop using this the weight gain problem arises. So it’s not better option for people who think for weight loss because if anyone think about weight loss then he think for long term weight loss.
Negative Result
Like most of the other dietary supplements it also has some side effects. The sensa consumption can cause Dizziness, Swelling, Gas, Upset abdomen, Hives, Lose bowels, headache. And as sensa user if you experience such kind of problems then you must concern your physician as quick as possible.
Customer Billing Problem
The sensa claim that it will refund your money after 30 day trial if you’re not satisfied by its result, but lots of customer complaints against sensa secret fees, credit card charges, and refusal to honor its refund policy which is not good for sensa.
Coming to the conclusion about Sensa, I still think that there are many other products which work for losing weight. But, always be aware, read enough reviews and search for user testimonials before trying any product.
My husband & I attended my company holiday party which was held at Stone Brewing Co./Stone Brewing World Bistro & Gardens. I knew that we would have wonderful beer choices but I was pleasantly surprised with the delicious food that was served! We were in agreement that it was a great place to host a company party. It was a bit confusing to find since this was our first visit there. There wasn't any obvious signage but now that we know where it's at - we will likely be back!
The beer and wine was free flowing all evening long. I stopped at one beer to be the responsible designated driver. I wish I could remember the names of the beers that my husband and I had. With my husband's love of great beer and my love of great food... a return trip with some friends and family is in our future!
There were a few food choices that were served buffet style. I had the Poached Pear Arugula Salad, Mac 'n Beer Cheese, and Pan-Seared Salmon served with a fruited gastrique & fried shaved parsnips. My selections were absolutely delicious! For dessert we were treated to pumpkin pie cheesecake squares. Normally I find cheesecake to be much too dense and rich for my taste but these were light and heavenly! I cannot stop raving about my dining experience!
Microsoft is not new to the tablet, but the OS and Windows RT Surface device the company hopes to reach its first significant success in this market segment. Processor borrowed from the mobile phone industry, as well as using a simplified version of Windows 8 in combination with a special high-quality piece of hardware, Microsoft, at first glance, it was possible to do exactly what you need.
Microsoft Surface with Windows RT
For Microsoft - Windows-based processor ARM - undeveloped territory. Together with Windows RT provides a wide range of activities of companies such as NVIDIA, Qualcomm, Texas Instruments, and others, to promote affordable variety of chipsets, which are often found in the tablets with Android.
In the case of Model Surface, Microsoft chose a quad-core Tegra 3 from NVIDIA with the RAM to 2 GB. This chip is known to us for smart phones and tablets based on Android - most features almost identical Surface mobile gadgets. You can choose from 32 GB or 64 GB of internal memory (available microSDXC slot). Issue 16 GB version is planned.
As expected, the device has two stereo speakers (pretty quiet, even when running at full capacity), dual digital microphones, HD-video output, which is an electronic key for $ 39.99 is connected to HDMI and VGA. In addition, a set of sensors: light, accelerometer, gyroscope and digital compass, but no GPS. Microsoft also does not offer a tablet with network support 3G/4G, referring to the results of the consumer survey, which showed that the majority of devices, similar to the Surface, are not used outside of the home or office.
Unlike its competitors, Microsoft has equipped the tablet Surface full-port USB 2.0, with which the gadget can connect peripheral devices such as a printer, keyboard, mouse and other accessories. Besides, there is also a Cover port, working with magnetic keyboard-cover Microsoft. Finally, there is a front and rear cameras - LifeCam, each of them can shoot HD-format video 720 p.
Microsoft currently offers three versions of the model: Surface tablet entry level price of U.S. $ 499 - with 32 GB of memory for storing data and a holster, for $ 599 you can buy a Surface to 32 GB with a black keyboard cover-Touch Cover; over 699 dollars you can become the owner of Surface with 64 GB and black Touch Cover.
Design and construction
We must pay tribute to Microsoft on the design of the devices and their design: the hardware division of the company primarily known for its range of simple peripherals - keyboard, mouse, trackpad, and the Xbox, but the tablet Surface has a completely different level of material selection. If Microsoft and you had something to learn from Apple, it is - the attention to detail, and while the Surface significantly different in design and suitable for portable computers on iPad, both gadget characterized demanding and rigorous concept.
Tablet clearly, accurately and beautifully done: the weight - 676 grams - is uniformly distributed throughout the body, so when you hold it in your hands, regardless of the position, you do not feel over-or center of gravity. «VaporMg» - the name of a specially treated magnesium alloy, which uses Microsoft - housing made of it, at the same time smooth and reliable capture hand. Experience in the first days showed that the tablet is quite resistant to scratches. This also means that there is not enough and fingerprints.
Surface - from Windows RT - intended primarily for use in landscape mode, so Microsoft has supplied a single tablet features - support extension at the rear. Stand runs the entire width of the device and takes up most of his height. The plate is carefully processed metal snaps during the opening, which is nice, and at the hearing, and feeling. Thus, Surface rises to the level of 22 degrees for easy typing or watching video. Close the stand is also nice, hidden magnets ensure that no vibration or fluctuations in the housing.
The idea was originally a stand in the project design. Thus, the camera on the back, has the same angle as the stand - 22 degrees, when Surface is vertical - the camera facing forward, not down - on the table. At the same time, the front camera plate is straight, it is assumed that the user is in any case looking at her, even when the tablet is worth.
Screen In addition to direct Windows RT, the display is the most controversial aspect of the Surface. Microsoft chose the 10.6-inch screen, which is best suited for the size of the keyboard and multitasking split panel Windows 8/RT, in contrast to typical display sizes from other manufacturers - 10.1 and 11.1 inches. What the company has done - so it's not out of the ordinary resolution of 1366 x 768, not striving for a resolution of the third-generation Apple iPad called Retina.
So, while other tablets are intended to accommodate as many pixels that are unlikely to be needed under normal circumstances, Microsoft refused to join the race pixel weapons. Although, it seems, the corporation went on a compromise - in a few months will Surface running Windows 8 Pro, resolution of which will be 1920 x 1080. Instead, Microsoft relies on ClearType HD - its latest version of sub-pixel rendering.
ClearType actually dates from the end of 1998, although first introduced in Windows, when the released version Vista. The essence of this method is to use three separate sub-pixels (red, green and blue) for each full pixels to smooth fonts. Thus, the text resolution is tripled. So, instead of processing each individual LCD-pixel, ClearType can include or incorporate any of the sub-pixels, providing a more fine-tuning.
Not surprisingly, the ClearType met a mixed reaction. On the one hand, with the help of increased levels of detail, in contrast to that which gives the traditional definition screen, however, due to the fact that each pixel has a different color, there is color fringing. Depending on what kind of subpixel is active, it can be red, blue or green. Some users believe that the bezel makes the text more visible, while others complain of its vagueness. During the reading of the text, at least one person who used the Surface to read large amounts of text, a headache.
Fortunately, other aspects of processing display more successful: for example, optical communication LCD-screen and cover the glass - reducing the distance between the two surfaces increases the transmission of light and prevents internal reflections that cause glare. This technique is widely used in smartphones, but for larger devices, such as, for example, tablets, rarely used, this is due to the high cost and complexity of the process of layering.
In general, mixed impressions. If your vision and ClearType HD match, then, together with the associated display panel do without the help of high resolution, which offers Apple and Samsung in their plates. Still, it is worth remembering that the more pixels requires significant illumination, and therefore of more batteries (which increases the weight, size and charge time tablet.)
But you need only increase the scale of graphics in the browser Surface and compare it to the iPad 3, as will be clear on the difference in resolution. The same can be observed when viewing the photos in the gallery: Microsoft loses screen tablet Apple.
Touch Cover and Type Cover Surface and its keyboard are designed together: one of the reasons that Microsoft was designed to make the screen more than the 10.1 inches in the fact that with this amount decreases the width of the tablet, and the ability for the keyboard is lost.
Already, you can select 2 Keyboard and Touch Cover Type Cover. The Touch Cover - the most subtle of the two - a thickness of only 3 mm, made of sensory structures and plastic, is attached to the bottom of the Surface and also acts as a protective cover for the front panel, a In addition, the method is also fast typing. Microsoft announces months of experiments to make absolutely sure that the magnetic clasps are strong enough and will not allow the tablet to fall out from the case, but at the same time, they should be easy to open - so that a child of three, and to deal with it.
On the keyboard, no moving parts, only the outlines of the buttons, made by laser on plastic. Inside - pressure sensors that track every movement of the fingers. Thus, the pressure should be about 40 g, although Surface also uses sensory acuity to track the key sequence, extending them to register even if you do not finish the planned action.
Naturally, this is not an ideal alternative to traditional keyboard, but due to its functionality, this device is capable of providing high speed printing, than the screen itself. The combination of a small level of compliance and the reverse textured connection provides increased the number of words to be printed in one minute. Microsoft claims that to become familiar with a new keyboard take a little less than a week, and over time can achieve double speed, as opposed to a set of on-screen. And although we did not go to that level, but the preparation of bulk e-mail and other types of messages to be comfortable.
For those who can not get used to the keyboard, so-called zero-profile, fits Type Cover. Accessory twice as thick - 6 mm, and has a mechanical keys, though, and with a minimum speed. In this case, the total weight of the tablet is added 250 g (as opposed to 200 g Touch Cover). Thus, you get a full keyboard plus a set of function keys, media control and navigation, in addition there is the trackpad. Just as with Touch Cover, closing the screen keyboard automatically switches to standby mode Surface.
Even with increased depth keyboard does not look like a traditional analog. Feeling when typing akin to those that make use of modern ultrabooks. Wide gap - special privilege.
Surface modification of the basic platform Windows RT with 32 GB of memory offered for $ 499, and with accessory Touch Cover (black) - for $ 599. For the version with 64 GB of memory, complete with Touch Cover will have to pay $ 699.
Cover of Touch Cover can be purchased separately as an accessory for $ 119.99 in a variety of colors, including white, blue, red and purple. Case Keyboard - Type Cover for $ 129.99 is available in black only.
Battery Microsoft claims that 31.5 watt-hour battery, used in Surface, has the charge, which is enough for day use. We extensively use the tablet all day, combining the work of a web browser, some applications, local and streaming media, as well as testing the operation of the camera. Microsoft tablet proved to be very reliable.
The most significant is the power consumption in the standby mode. While we are used to charge the smartphone every night, with plates such a process can be irregular. Expected that the charge lasts for a long period of time, respectively, the device should work in any time when he will not need one.
From this point of view, Surface loses its competitors. If the iPad can not enjoy a few days and still be confident that he will be a certain level of charge, the Surface is too wasteful standby. Leaving him with a charge of 30% without the active use, after 6 hours, we found that he had passed out.
Microsoft can still improve power management. It is possible that some corrections in the software will increase battery life. We do not seem so intractable problem, users simply have to consider this nuance battery in daily use.
Conclusion After all, the whole point of the question in the ecosystem. If you're already using the products Microsoft - Windows Phone, Xbox 360, or simply on your computer is Windows 7, then a tablet Surface fits your world than iPad or tablet running Android. Moreover, if you are subscribed to Xbox Music, a streaming audio service for Microsoft, it will also purchase Surface justified, given the more cross-platform applications and those that are just getting ready to launch.
The usefulness of ClearType HD pointless to argue, it's a private matter, but still relatively difficult to criticize Microsoft hardware. Team of creators Surface, taking the concept of increased attention to detail in Apple, significantly rethink it. The result is a perfectly designed tablet with a really useful design elements, for example, stand. We can argue about Touch Cover and Type Cover, how about trying Microsoft abandon a separate keyboard. But Surface is certainly practical gadget without these accessories, although their use of the same Office provides a comfortable fit.
As for Windows RT, then the operating system will be a real stumbling block. Taken for granted the fact remains that the number of applications it loses its competitors. In addition, some users Windows in principle is not perceived. But it is difficult to explain the invisible at first glance the difference between RT and Windows 8, so it will take time until the Surface take its place in the world of tablets. It will happen, but with some difficulty, perhaps with the advent of Surface Pro, having a high-resolution display and a digital pen, tablet Microsoft finally gets the respect it deserves.

Windows 8 officially announced, and the next exit and mobile computers based on it. At Acer - Aspire S7 is in 11 and 13-inch format. Both have touch IPS-screen, aluminum body and accompanied by a powerful advertising campaign with Megan Fox in the lead role. We met with the news at an event in London. What they can to really catch on?
A new era is said about the release of Windows 8 at Microsoft, has started only recently. But equipment manufacturers have begun to actively advertise any gadgets with this system. The new operating system from Microsoft is quite different. So different that to underscore its capabilities had to redefine the concept of conventional computers. Even a few months before the release of "Eight" the Internet is replete with images of something strange - hybrids laptops and candy bars to the plates.
It is understandable - after all it is necessary to somehow justify the transition to Windows 8. Of course, working with a "magic tile" of Windows 8, and can be a mouse, but the irrepressible human mind can not resist the deadly difficult question "why?". Here also we have a lot of devices with touch screens that fold and bend, so that they feel comfortable poking fingers.
Like many others, Acer has decided to strike at the most compact computers, which for the second year as presented ultrabook. Acer was the first at the Aspire S3 , after about six months, he added Aspire S5 , and now we come to the Aspire S7. Its release is timed to coincide with the release of Windows 8, and all the new features of the operating systems are supported from and to.
But not enough to take one of the old ultrabooks, insert the touch screen to draw on the key [Windows] logo eights and salable. There was a lot of work and on the design of the device. The design of appearance, ergonomics, the cooling system. Acer, like many other companies, tried to completely change the feel of use. This not only allows you to conveniently work with Windows 8, but also attracts customers. Finally in the notebook segment, there was something new!
Aspire S7 - honest ultrabook new generation. The difference between him and the S3 or S5 is very significant and is manifested primarily in the design. The novelty is somewhat similar to the first Aspire S3, something on ultrabooks ASUS, but something - and the MacBook Air. However, neither of which the secondary can not be considered.
Acer tried to bring the design to modern Aspire S7 flagship smartphone. Last today tend to be the most thin case and a screen with a higher resolution. That is what we see in the new ultrabook. The thickness of the 11.6-inch S7 is only 12.2 mm (less than half an inch), and the 13.3-inch and even less - 11.9 mm. With these parameters they can be put on a par with tablets, not to mention a ultrabook. Weight is also very light - 1.04 kg for younger model and 1.30 kg in the older.
The main idea of the exterior Aspire S7 - this is perhaps the harmony between the curvy body and the "direct rigor" of the main surfaces of the laptop. Sharp pointed edge of the case, without the smooth bevel. According to Kant laptop circled chrome metal strip. In general, the entire body is made of anodized aluminum and glass Gorilla Glass. Emphasize - any resemblance to the MacBook Air, but the design of the Aspire S7 no less stylish.
Even the keyboard is not from the general concept. The keys are painted in the same color as the body, and seem to be too large for such a compact ultrabook, especially for the 11.6-inch model.
However, if you look closely, are immediately visible, as this has been achieved. Yes, the keys are really big and comfortable. Even move them no less than most ultrabooks, despite an incredibly slim body. But block the function keys [F1] - [F12] to be removed completely. We have become used to the fact that they are assigned to all sorts of additional features such as volume and screen brightness, the call of an application, and so on. But to take away completely the series - it is really something new. However, the "reach" of their functions can still be holding [Fn] and pressing the right key of the top row, which is dominated by numbers.
Where is the [Esc]? In place of the tilde or "E". Tilda was also the right of the [Caps Lock], which for the occasion fairly "thin." Interesting experiment. Is this a new era? For UMPC - perhaps.
Keyboard back light after such a drastic change the layout does not seem unusual. However, it is made to match the design - with style and taste. Turned herself, relying on a light sensor. They have a choice, and its brightness.
The touchpad, thank God, not abandoned. Radical transition to the touch screen on a laptop would be too risky. Pleased that Acer has not followed the example of Sony VAIO Duo and 11, which is more like a tablet with a keyboard. Nominally, the touchpad on the Aspire S7 present. As it should be in the fashion, it besknopochnaya and quite big.
But, of course, all the attention was given to the screen. Screen - this is "our everything" in Windows 8. Aspire S7 in this respect did not disappoint and came out with IPS-matrix and a resolution FullHD. This is equally true for the 11 - and 13-inch model. In the first case received almost screen class is already on edge nabivshego Retina. For comparison - the younger Aspire S7 pixel density of 190 PPI, while the MacBook Pro 13.3 "Retina - 227 PPI.
Speaking in human terms, the picture on the screen Aspire S7 is very clear, the colors are true and generally wonderful. For a complete set of the 13.3-inch ultrabook closed glass Gorilla Glass 2. Downright hefty plate is obtained. But the 11.6-inch S7 this somehow does not.
Expands the display 180 degrees, completely lying on the table. It simplifies the work with him? Only if you expand it to itself, removing the barrier of the keyboard. A fold out like the Lenovo IdeaPad Yoga ultrabook from Acer can not. Yet, despite all the innovative ideas embodied in it, the novelty is nothing more than the classic version of a laptop, made in accordance with modern trends.
Acer is not shy about telling and a special cooling system Aspire S7. It is known that metal thin laptops often suffer unnecessary heating. Unpleasant it, especially if you have to put the computer to its knees, and sometimes the abdomen. Aspire S7 so strongly heated. Acer has named its decision TwinAir - a special cooling system, which involves two fans. One deals with the cold air intake, and the other blows hot. One confused in this scheme. According to the statement itself, Acer, and the little fans rotate at a decent speed - 10,000 rpm. So that the noise from them is to be honest. Not surprisingly, the word «silent» (quiet) in the description TwinAir is encountered.
Here we come to the end of the story about ultrabooks Acer Aspire S7. It remains to say a few words about the iron component and, of course, Megan Fox. But Megan leave "for dessert", and while some of the gland.
If you look at the key features of Aspire S7, is surprising we do not see. In the role of the primary storage - SSD with 128 or 256 GB. But the disk subsystem running in RAID 0, which gives a noticeable speed boost.
The architecture ARM Acer experiment did not (and sorry), and therefore use the new Aspire S7-based dual-core Intel Core i5-3317U and Core i7-3517U. RAM is 4 GB, but neither reduce nor increase this amount can not. Video card, of course, the built - Intel HD Graphics 4000. Wi-Fi 802.11a/b/g/n and Bluetooth 4.0 on the spot. Ethernet as thin ultrabook is not allowed. 3G-module also graced us with his presence. Good thing there was a place for a couple of USB 3.0 connectors and HDMI. There is even a card reader. True, only the 13.3-inch model.
