2010 sixth album from the acclaimed country pop singer/songwriter who's written & co-written with Mary Chapin Carpenter, Trisha Yearwood , Radney Foster & more.

2010 release, renowned singer/songwriter Kim Richey's long awaited sixth album. A treasured songwriter with a penchant for earthbound lyrics and soaring Roots-Pop melodies, Richey has been supplying intelligent, tuneful songs to Country performers such as Trisha Yearwood and Radney Foster since the early 1990s. In '95, she released an album under her own name, and the fringe-Country cognoscenti fell in love with her buttery alto. Since then she has continued a somewhat dual career of writing for others while releasing solid solo albums. 11 tracks.

It contains classic tracks like the US Top 5 single Mixed Emotions as well as Rock And A Hard Place, which boasts a trademark riff as infectious as any they've come up with.

With enough track and speed to fuel any young car-lover's imagination, Hot Wheels: World Race zestfully celebrates the 35th anniversary of Mattel's popular racecar collectibles. Fresh from acing his driving test, teenage surfer Vert Wheeler gets recruited--along with a handful of world-famous racers--to drive a parallel dimension known as Highway 35. Their sponsor is a mysterious scientist, creator of uncommonly powerful and cool-looking vehicles. Their mission: to capture the Wheel of Power, "the greatest source of energy the world has ever known!" (Cue echo machine.) It's a dangerous, heart-thumping journey through surreal desert, volcano, jungle, ocean, and urban courses. To its credit, World Race provides clean entertainment: no one swears, no one dies, and stiff competition turns out to be a healthy exercise in team building. This 110-minute show is crafted in dizzying CGI format and amplified by hard rock music throughout (Smash Mouth provides the end theme). (Ages 5 and older) --Liane Thomas

Palacios Chorizo - Hot Palacios Chorizo - Hot
Sale Price: $4.99

Authentic dry cured Spanish chorizo. Firm texture, slightly dry, and a mildly spicy taste. Contains pork, paprika, salt, and garlic. All natural, no preservatives, no artificial colors. Like the "mild" version of Chorizo Palacios, this is the real deal. This is Spain. We traveled many days looking for the quintessential Chorizo. This recipe has remained unflinched over the centuries. A marriage of two of Spain's great loves: pork and paprika. Centuries ago, far before refrigeration, the people of Spain utilized salt curing to preserve their prized Jamon Iberico. Upon the arrival of peppers from the new world, thanks to Christopher Columbus, the Spaniards had a new tool in their culinary arsenal. It was discovered that powdered dried peppers (pimenton) added to fresh pork would retard spoilage. When properly prepared, the ground pork could be seasoned and stored indefinitely in the form of chorizo. Unlike the un-cured Mexican and Caribbean varietals, authentic dry-cured Spanish chorizo is unique in flavor and texture and may be eaten sliced and served cold or used for cooking. Perfect when served along side some Manchego cheese, topped on some toasted bread, added to your paella, or for a host of more inspired culinary uses.

In the United States, many people associate paprika with foods from Eastern Europe, particularly with the cuisine of Hungary. The peppers used to make paprika are actually natives to the New World, but they are now grown in several countries, including Hungary and Spain. Spanish paprika is known as pimenton. It is made from round peppers that are about the size of a peach, is a paler shade of red than Hungarian paprika, and has a slightly different flavor. It is almost sweet in taste and is used both as a coloring agent and as a spice. The Spanish add it to seafood, sausages, rice and many other savory dishes. This Denomination of Origin product, Pimenton de la Vera, is made from oak fire dried native peppers that are stone ground to a fine texture. The peppers adopt a pleasingly smoky flavor from the fires. The resulting spice, a powdery smoked paprika, is available in sweet (dolce) and hot (picante) varieties.Smoked paprika's use in cooking is almost endless. It adds an extra level of flavor to chili, soup and stew; sparks up sauces, scrambled eggs or omeletts; and makes deviled eggs or spiced nuts deliciously different. Essential to a Spanish sauce named romesco, smoked paprika complements many Southwestern dishes as well. Rub it on meats to add a subtle, smoked flavor without actual smoking. Sprinkle it over rice, potatoes or casseroles. Finally, try drizzling olive oil flavored with Pimenton de la Vera over steak, chicken, fish or vegetables. Varieties sold separately.

Why Hot Wheels Has Become a Collector's Item for Many Adults

Hot Wheels is a brand of die-cast toy cars that was launched in America by an American toy manufacturer named Mattel in the year 1968. A Die-cast toy is any toy or collectible item manufactured utilizing the die casting method. These toys are made using metal and plastic. The metal most commonly used is ZAMAK, which is an alloy of zinc and aluminum. Initially, these cars were designed to on a 1:64 scale and were used on Hot Wheels track sets. However, in 1970 a series of Hot Wheels cars were designed on a 1:43 scale. This new range of cars became adult collector series vehicles that were replicas of Formula One and NASCAR cars, which were extremely successful. The Hot Wheels logo was designed by Rick irons, a Californian Artist who worked with Mattel.

Elliot Hander, co-founder of Mattel, wanted to manufacture a range of die-cast toys for boys. He wanted to dominate the toy cars industry which was once upon a time dominated by Lesney, a British company with their Matchbox cars. Even though, Hander's executives thought it was an awful idea, the toy cars became a major success. In 1968, Mattel released nearly sixteen castings. Eleven cars were designed by Marry Bentley Bradley. The first one manufactured was an elegant dark blue Custom Camaro.

In 1968, Hot Wheels introduced the custom-built Volkswagen, which was one their first cars. Some of the other cars they released in the same year were: Beatnik Bandit which was designed by Ed Roth, Custom Barracuda, Custom Camaro, Custom Corvette, Custom Cougar, Custom Eldorado, Custom Firebird, Custom Fleetside, Custom Mustang, Custom T-Bird, Custom Volkswagen which was designed by Ira Gilford, Deora, Ford J-Car, Hot Heap, Python which was designed by Dean Jefferies, and Silhouette. All these cars had colourful paint work, bearings, redline wheels, and working suspensions.

In 1969, Twin Mill was one of the most popular and accepted Hot Wheel cars. In 1970, the famous Sizzler, the rechargeable electronic car was made. In 1985, the Hot Wheels Torino Tornado was one of the most renowned cars. In 1995, the Hot Wheel cars were differentiated into specialized series i.e. the Model Series which was later renamed First Edition, and the Treasure Hunt Series. In 2000, a new range of Hot Wheel Cars came into the market. These cars had exquisite paint jobs, and functioned like their original counterparts.

Over the years, Hot Wheel cars have not only been collected by children, but it has become a collector's item for many adults too. There have been estimates that over 41 million children have collected Hot Wheels toys throughout their childhood years, and an average collector has over 1,550 cars to his collection.

The Hot Wheel range of toys include many different kinds of tracks, accessories, different kinds of vehicles like the 'Sizzlers' the rechargeable electric cars, 'Hot Line' trains, 'R-R-Rumblers' motorcycles, and 'Hot Birds' aeroplanes, but they have always been most popular and well known for their collection of small scale free-rolling models of custom hot rods and muscles.
