10 best IPAs
The pale ale hype train is showing no signs of slowing. We've picked out the new beers and breweries leading the way
The IPA is one of the most popular beer styles around. As a result of its mass appeal, and breweries' desire to innovate and experiment, the IPA has become a beacon of beer fashion: Changing and evolving styles at a rate that can be hard to keep up with.
To reflect this, we've been diligently drinking our way through some of the newest IPAs in the current scene to come up with this list of beers. Some of them follow the latest trend, started on America's west coast, for creating hazy, juicy beers by ramming the booze with hops at the back end of the process – and even boosting the juice factor with the addition of fresh fruit. We've also included higher and lower strength IPAs, often referred to as DIPAs (the extra boozy Double IPA) and SIPAs (an easier-drinking Session IPA).
The IPA style has also drifted into other grain territories, including wheat IPAs and the heavily roasted, oxymoronic dark IPA (Spey Valley's Spey's Hopper is an example well worth trying).
Many of these IPAs are now produced as limited editions, to be snapped up before the brewery rolls out more experiments with different hops or by collaborating with other breweries (Cloudwater, Magic Rock and Burning Sky all produce special IPAs that are worthy of investigation). We've also stretched the "new" category to include a few established beers from overseas that have only recently been made available to the British drinking public.
If you're one of the many IPA fans, then give these beers a whirl to find what style suits you best – then check back next year for even more IPA innovations…
1. Brewski Barbarian IPA, 6%: £3.99 for 330ml, Beer Hawk
This Swedish Brewski booze comes in a stubby bottle wrapped with one of the worst beer packaging designs you'll see – but don't judge a beer by its label. Pop the cap and you'll be greeted with elegant, inviting aromas of tropical hops that hint of pleasures to come. Barbarian pours hazy with a strong head of froth – its viscous mouthfeel backed by bold, tropical notes of grapefruit and ripe mango, with a light, biscuity malt base. The smooth, tongue-tingling, lactose-formed finish is up there with the very finest Belgian beers. Impressive stuff indeed.
2. Kona Brewing Company Hanalei Island IPA, 4.5%: £2.25 for 355ml, Beer Merchants
Say aloha to a Hawaiian hop homage with this mouth-watering tropical fruit salad from the folks at Kona. There's a subtle waft of passion fruit on opening but this doesn't prepare you for the fruity taste explosion that awaits. Grapefruit, guava and mango all scream for attention, while the long hoppy bitterness rides you home on the crest of a wave.
3. Siphon Brewing Damme Nation, 7%: £3.80 for 330ml, Beer Merchants
Siphon is a new brewery trying to give IPAs a leg up in its native Belgian market. This bottle is billed as an American-style IPA but it has a lovely rich and creamy malt body that the Belgians excel at, with prominent caramel sweetness and a delicately perfumed yeast. The dry hopping has infused the beer with citrus and tropical fruits, while bitter orange and resinous pine complete the profile – moderately bitter by American standards; intense for the Belgians.
4. Trzech Kumpli Pan Ipani, 6%: £5.10 for 500ml, Hop Burns & Black
Here's a great example of how the beer scene has moved on from a choice of mostly brown bitter or fizzy lager. We have a golden wheat IPA that's brewed in Poland and is thicker and murkier than a heavy Warsaw smog. This brave new beer has mango aromas which become peachier on the palette, with the smooth, gloopy liquid developing a refreshing crispness when glugged thanks to the wheat's lighter touches, a tight fizz and zingy bitterness. Slosh this into your glass and celebrate the evolving world of beer.
5. Kew Brewery Join the Kew, 5.9%: £2.80 for 330ml, Hop Burns & Black
Kew Brewery will be a name that's new to a lot of beer drinkers, but we're big fans of its booze and reckon wider recognition is now due. Join the Kew was first brewed in 2016 to celebrate the brewery's first birthday but has recently joined its core range and, like all Kew beers, can boast an all-British line up of ingredients. The five hop varieties – UK Cascade, UK Chinook, Endeavour, Minstrel and Olicana – give it some citrussy notes akin to its American counterparts, but it's also loaded with currant and bitter berry flavours that you rarely encounter in other IPAs. The bitterness becomes stronger and more herbal at the finish, lingering long enough to pierce through subsequent sips, building to a crescendo as you empty the glass.
6. Sierra Nevada Tropical Torpedo, 6.7%: £3.39 for 355ml, Beers of Europe
Starting out in 1979, California's Sierra Nevada is credited with being one of the breweries that kick-started the global craft beer scene, showing off the full-flavoured American hops that now inhabit so many beers. Tropical Torpedo is its latest IPA and has an emphasis on tropically flavoured hops, with Citra, Mosaic, El Dorado and Comet creating a storm of passion fruit and citrus aromas and flavours. But it's also resolutely bitter (Amarillo is the hop doing most of this work), with a fresh, grassy undercurrent and a dry, leafy bitter surge to finish. A welcome addition to the Sierra Nevada range.
7. Garage Beer Co. Soup IPA, 6%: £5 for 440ml, Beer Merchants
Behind the cartoonish can livery is a glorious ode to citra and mosaic – brewed to perfection by Barcelona's ultra-talented Garage Beer Co. True to its name, Soup pours like a can of Baxter's – hazy and funky (but thankfully minus the vegetable chunks) and produces a fine, creamy head with bags of green hop aromas on the nose. Expect palate-pleasing bursts of mango, peach and zesty orange, underpinned with a subtle malty base. Delicioso.
8. Hardywood VIPA, 5.2%: £3.05 for 355ml, Ales by Mail
Richmond, Virginia's Hardywood is one of a number of American breweries expanding their market to the UK. VIPA (Virginia Pale Ale – see what they did?) was launched a year ago and is now available to UK customers, who are in for a treat from the all-Virginian hops and barley that make up this brew. It's another tropically focussed ale but less of a juice bomb than some of the hazier beers in this list. "Light" and "fresh" are words that spring to mind – there's more of a lemony edge to the hops and a crispness to the malt, with resin and straw bitterness at the finish. As autumn kicks in, this is the kind of refreshing beer you need to psychologically help you extend the summer mood for a little bit longer.
9. Vibrant Forest Brewery Kaleidoscope, 6.5%: £3.19 for 330ml bottle, Beer Hawk
This British take on a West Coast IPA springs from Lymington's Vibrant Forest micro-brewery, and fans of punchy, hop-happy beers should hunt this one down at all costs. This booze has been dry-hopped to within an inch of its life, and grips your taste buds in a hoppy headlock from the get-go. Hazy, viscous mouthfuls of grapefruit bitterness build into a rousing hoppy crescendo, ending with a deliciously dry, piney finish.
10. Bellfield Brewery Lawless Village IPA, 4.5%: £29.40 for 12 x 330ml, Amazon
Edinburgh's Bellfield Brewery first started brewing in 2015 and, although this beer has been around since early 2016, it has only just started to reach the attention of the wider public and follows another relatively new development in the beer world: Like all of the brewery's products, it's gluten-free. It's a product that should appeal beyond the gluten-free category, though, with a fuller body than most such beers we've sampled. It also has bags of flavour, with a bit of sweetness and a good amount of hopping that provide both a rustic earthiness and fresher fruitiness. At 4.5%, it's at the sessionable end of the IPA spectrum and has already been scooping up some prestigious brewing awards.
The Verdict: IPAs
Looking for a hazy IPA full of juicy flavours? Then we suggest a can of Brewski's Barbarian is the place to start… until the next IPA trend comes along.

Maya Chan Beach Resort~Travel Review
Quintana Roo or better known as Costa Maya in the Yucatan Peninsula is a tiny stretch of paradise undiscovered. From the second you leave the cliche, over crowded cruise port and breathe in the salty air you know you have set foot somewhere special.
What sets this tiny town apart is that the vast majority of the island is off the grid. Still relatively untouched by big resorts and airports Costa Maya is a tiny fishing town vacant of big city tourism. Most "resorts" we spied and I use that term generously have water catchment systems rooftop and generators. Making this island that much more special. Once you leave the port and make your way towards the resort side of the island you realize just how "off the grid" you are by the conditions of the dirt roads.
Getting to Maya Chan
Maya Chan Beach Resort does not advertise or book thru the cruise ships, so you book on their own site or trip advisor. After booking, you are given very detailed instructions on where to meet your bus driver. It's not difficult, the rendezvous point is right outside the hustle bustle area of the port. Once you find your driver (recognizable by sign) they proceed to bus you to Maya Chan, It's about a 20 minute drive. Prior to them fixing the road it was a 30-40 minute drive on a very bumpy road, so this is an improvement!
The Maya Chan Experience
Our reservation was for an all day all inclusive package for $59 (this is our third trip to Maya Chan) You can click HERE for what is included in this price. It's basically everything, cabana, food, drinks, kayak, snorkel, toys etc, basically everything you could want for a fun relaxing day on the beach. Since we are repeat customers, I believe we were given a larger cabana, it was lovely. You can see in the pic. We had a shaded day bed, chairs, table, and a hammock.
When you arrive they give you a 10 minute welcome speech and instruct you as to the lay of the land. They then take you to your pre-designated cabana with homemade chips and guac with cocktail waiting.
We spent the rest of the day kayaking out to the reef. Our favorite Maya Chan activity is simply floating in the anchored floating chairs in the water. Where they have waiters kayak out to bring you drinks (priceless.) Lunch is served at noon. It is served in the open air restaurant. Lunch at Maya Chan has is typically three types of tacos, rice and beans (unlimited.)
The cocktails are homemade and delicious, and the waitstaff is unparalleled in friendliness and hospitality. My only complaint…. 4:00 pm call time for back to the port always seems to come a little to early.
There is a reason or shall I say countless reasons we have made Maya Chan Beach Resort our "Go to" place in Costa Maya, Mexico!

Social media censorship has officially gone mad after an Instagram user was banned for innocently posting a picture of a cake, which the social media platform deemed bore too much resemblance to a breast.
Instagram is known for its no female nipple policy but when one user proudly shared a picture of a religious Easter Simnel cake she was left aghast when her account was suspended. The reason seems to point to the marzipan balls on the top of the cake, which Instagram's nudity algorithm must have mistaken for female breasts.
The user's daughter, Fiona Mosely, took to Twitter to describe the ridiculous situation along with a picture of the cake in question, calling the whole cakey kerfuffle #BoobGate.
Instagram might want to open up a few more biology books because the 11 balls, which are meant to represent Jesus and his disciples (minus Judas), are far from being sexually suggestive and do not breach the service's terms of use.
The user was presented with an error message stating her account had been suspended for violating terms and has since appealed the ban but if unsuccessful will lose her images on her account. Her other daughter however also posted a picture of the same cake but from a different angle and it passed the censorship police without a problem.
It's not just Instagram's overly-sensitive bots causing problems as Facebook has difficulty with the name of the Lincolnshire town of Scunthorpe, with users complaining posts are blocked that contain the word. Why? Well, take a closer look and you'll see a particularly naughty word in there. Obviously, it's just an oversight but does social media censorship need to be knocked down a notch?
The #freethenipple hashtag is an ongoing campaign for Instagram to allow female topless photos, claiming to empower women and stand against female censorship as male topless photos are allowed. Mosely has now started a tongue-in-cheek #freethesimnel hashtag to raise awareness.

If you are facing a felony or a misdemeanor DUI, here's a guide to help you understand the legal definitions of these charges, and what they involve.
There is a lot of confusion about the differences. And you may simply be asking things like what is a felony? If you are facing a misdemeanor or felony DUI – or a loved one is – here is what you need to know.
The Felony Definition Is:
In broad terms, a felony is considered to be a severe crime. Felony sentences lead to imprisonment for one year or longer, USLegal.com reports. Murder, rape, and burglary are all considered serious offenses and harsh penalties come along with the felony title. Under state law, inmates serving time for felonious crimes are sent to state prisons. This is because sentences that are shorter than one year are carried out at county jails.
Felonies are usually classified by how serious they are. So, of course, the more worse the crime, the harsher the penalty. Felony classification is also by the jurisdiction where they happened. And, the kind of crime committed. In these instances, there are categories that rank the severity of the crime.
For Instance:
A Class A felony is punished more severely than a Class B felony or Class C felony. The statute of limitations regarding felonies varies according to jurisdiction.
What Is a Misdemeanor?
A misdemeanor is a criminal act that's not as severe as a felony. As with the felony definition, misdemeanor laws vary from one jurisdiction to another. Misdemeanors include such acts as disturbing the peace and petty theft. They also include drunk driving that doesn't result in injuries to others and public drunkenness. Other criminal acts in this category are simple assault and battery, and traffic violations. They are usually tried in local municipal or justice courts and punishments may include fines or incarceration in county jails.
Misdemeanors classifications
Most commonly, they are considered Class 1 through Class 3, or Class A through Class C. As with felonies, Classes 1 or A are ranked as the most serious crimes and carry the strictest penalties. In some jurisdictions, there are "unclassified" misdemeanors — also called Class 4 or Class D misdemeanors. These are decided on a case-by-case basis, with a judge deciding what the punishment will be.
In some cases, a misdemeanor DUI or DWI can be elevated to felony status, depending upon these factors, according to VeryWellMind:
If the incident results in injuries or death.
In most states, if a driver injures or kills someone, felony charges will likely be filed. If you run a red light and hit another car while intoxicated and injure your passengers or people in the other car, there's a good chance you'll be charged with a felony. Felony charges aren't as likely if someone rear ends you at a red light or stop sign and injures you or your passengers, even if you have been drinking.
If you're breaking other laws or driving on a suspended license
Depending upon the jurisdiction, if you are arrested for DUI while also breaking other laws, your charges may be elevated to felony status. Or, if you're driving on a suspended license and are arrested for an additional DUI, some states will elevate this to a felony. The same holds true if your license is restricted or revoked.
If you're caught driving with an elevated Blood Alcohol Count (BAC)
Related: Blood Alcohol Calculator
In all 50 states, you're considered to be driving impaired if your BAC content is .08 percent. Some states have a set BAC level which automatically triggers felony charges. This level is often around 0.16 percent. In other states, a higher BAC level can result in stricter punishment if you're convicted of a misdemeanor DUI. VeryWellMind notes that the higher your BAC is, the harsher the punishment will be.
If you are driving DUI with kids in your vehicle
Many states have specific laws that raise this to a felony if there are children in the car. Depending upon the state, a passenger in your car may be classified as a child if they are in their teen years. As is the case in New York, where Leandra's Law was enacted. They named it after a young girl who was killed while riding in a car being driven by the intoxicated mother of one of her friends. Under this law, a child is defined as being 15-years-old or younger.
If you've been previously convicted of a DUI
Again, this can vary from one state to the next. How many prior convictions — and in what period of time they happened — are used to elevate a misdemeanor to a felony.
What to expect if you've been charged with a felony or misdemeanor DUI
Related: What to do if you are Facing a DUI Offense
The video below explains some of the things you can expect if this is the first time you've been charged with a DUI.
Most states categorize a first-time DUI arrest as a misdemeanor, FreeAdviceLegal reports. If you are charged with a misdemeanor DUI, some form of sentencing or punishment will be mandatory. Which means that you need to understand that there are long-term consequences of a DUI conviction.
You may also face this:
While there's a good chance you'll be placed on probation if this is your first arrest, there's also a good chance you'll wind up serving time in the county jail because you've been put on probation. It all depends on the laws in your state because courts can order you to serve time if it's deemed necessary. And your license will also be suspended for a period of time, even if this is your first DUI.
A DUI costs time and money
If you don't have a DUI history, you may be able to apply for an occupational driver's license or a hardship license, which would allow you to continue going to work or school. But costs for probation aren't cheap either. You'll be subject to court costs, probation fees, and urinalysis fees, and your monthly payment could be about the same as a car payment. You'll also be expected to attend and complete drug and alcohol counseling and to spend some time doing community service.
There's also an administrative element to keep in mind:
Some states, for instance, will automatically suspend your license if you refuse to take a breath test — before you are convicted.
The most important aspect of your first DUI is this: Even if you aren't convicted, perhaps because you were placed on probation or your sentence was deferred, that sentence will remain on your record and can be used against you later. If you wind up with a second DUI charge later, your first sentence will be added to that. Stiffer penalties and a longer sentence will result.
What are the consequences if you've had more than one DUI offense?
Depending upon the state, if you're slapped with another DUI, that conviction may be elevated to a felony. This can depend on where you are arrested. In New Mexico, your case won't be elevated to felony status unless it's your fourth DUI, while in Texas, your third DUI will garner felony charges.
How a felony or misdemeanor can affect employment and auto insurance rates:
Even if you only have one DUI conviction, it can affect either of these. Some employers run criminal history checks and may balk if a criminal record shows up. Some employers don't hire individuals with DUI's on their records and may view you as a safety risk. They may also worry that doing so will raise their insurance rates.
Your auto insurance rates will go up. If your DUI resulted in an accident, your insurance company may not cover the cost of your accident. Many insurance policies exclude coverage for damages that occurred during the commission of a DUI-related felony.
But you can break free
If you have been charged with a felony or misdemeanor DUI or DWI, you may want to consider hiring an attorney. Your attorney can help you negotiate the legal system — and turn an unpleasant situation into one that's much better.

CarMediaWorld and EMMA Eurofinals in Salzburg from March 22-24, 2019
Automobile Enthusiasm and Mobile Infotainment united at Auto Messe 2019
New cars, new infotainment comfort, new convenience, new audio experiences, ultimate excitement on the road: Salzburg's renowned automobile spring show will again not only provide a stage for latest car models but also for state-of-the-art sound and infotainment technologies for all vehicle generations.
Mobile Infotainment XXL with even more leading brands
The 12th CarMediaWorld edition in the context of Salzburg's Auto Messe announces further growth: While the "fair in fair format" covered 200 square meters and seven exhibitors at its premiere in 2008, visitors can now look forward to car media excitement from more than 50 top brands on 12,000 square meters in two halls. Besides an enthusing number of newcomers like Eton and Zapco, the CarMediaWorld management is delighted to welcome traditional head unit manufacturers like Pioneer back aboard. They perfectly round off the fair's top-notch exhibition program and give visitors the opportunity to take a close look at the latest mobile technology trends and product line ups – some even before their market premiere – and experience them live in one of the many show vehicles.
Award-winning products, award-winning sound vehicles and Car Audio enthusiasts
As in previous years, the great showdown of Europe's most spectacular sound cars is attracting a huge number of Car Media enthusiasts from all over the world to travel to Mozart's birthplace. A whole armada of competition cars from all over Europe will be on the spot to compete for the most desired championship title in a head-to-head race. Professionally and creatively equipped with top audio and multimedia components, these vehicles are among the greatest masterpieces of their generation.

From live band to culinary delights – the Salzburg Arena is where it all happens!
The key event of the international Sound Off competition season will again be supported by main sponsors Ground Zero, Musway and Vibe.

Divorces frequently begin for many reasons, but money and property will become the central focus of settlement negotiations by the end of the process. People in New Jersey might go to extreme lengths to hide money when their marriages end. Their activities to shift money away from spouses might begin years before the actual divorce filings. The desire to reduce alimony payments, child support or other distributions to an ex-spouse motivate these attempts to make income and assets appear low on paper.
In one case, an accountant skipped filing tax returns for two years prior to a divorce. During that time he sent in excessive amounts for his estimated income taxes. He typically owed about $40,000 a year, but he had sent the Internal Revenue Service over $500,000. He planned to file back taxes after the divorce and collect a huge refund as an individual, but his ex-wife's accountant caught the trick.
People also place larger than usual deposits in their workplace retirement plans to make their take-home pay look lower. Access to a W-2 form will reveal the amounts of total compensation and what was put in a retirement plan. Another tactic uncovered during one divorce involved a woman getting cash back from grocery store purchases. Over time, she hid away $30,000 in cash.
A person seeking a divorce might benefit from scrutinizing financial records for signs of strange activity or a change in spending habits. An attorney might assist a person who encounters problems locating financial records. During the discovery phase of the divorce, an attorney may request documents from the other party. This effort might result in a complete disclosure of assets so that the person might achieve a fair division of property that includes a share of retirement accounts.

When you weave through an online Chinese manufacturer directory, you become aware of the services and products and also get a lot of relevant information about their brands.
One of the most interesting features of an online Chinese manufacturer directory which helps in market research is the sales automation feature. With this feature, any business organization can form the appropriate keyword alerts and it can get a notification whether a buyer or seller is posting relevant queries. Since both the services and products are listed in the online manufacturer directories, it becomes very simple for other business organizations to check them and make strategies to modify their services and products accordingly for their target customers. Instead of actually visiting the market, the online Chinese manufacturer directory acts as a tool to make a market research which is equally effective and doesn't even need too many resources or a huge amount of money.
A Brief Guide to Sourcing from China
It can be a profitable move for your business if you decide to source products from China but chances are, you will also encounter a lot of challenges. Starting from the cultural differences to the language barriers, it is important to know the potential issues before you are starting. While sourcing from China, the first thing needed is a good Chinese manufacturer directory. It is not easy to trust all the Chinese manufacturers because of the quality issue. This is why a proper Chinese manufacturer directory will help you in knowing the authentic sources to contact before you start doing business with them.
The business practices in China are different from any other countries. For instance, the ability to pay with PayPal or a Credit card is a major issue in China. They prefer to get paid through the Western Union, or Bank Wire. The Chinese have very long holidays where a factory can shut down for as long as a month. If you don't get a response from them, it doesn't mean you are being ignored; it is just how things work there. Being a business organization, the focus is to have a good business relation with the suppliers and manufacturers be it China or anywhere else. The Chinese suppliers specialize in mass production, especially when they are creating a private labeled product. With the help of an effective Chinese manufacturer directory, you will be able to know the different aspects of Chinese manufacturers and deal with them accordingly.
How to Find the Best Suppliers with a Chinese Manufacturer Directory
Finding and accessing the Chinese manufacturers and suppliers are becoming really necessary for more and more companies. The reason is a lot of businesses are selecting China to source their products. Just a mere Google search is not enough because it is highly unlikely that the search will lead to an authentic Chinese manufacturer. It is a bit tough to establish contact with the Chinese manufacturers because they operate only in Chinese and their website contents are also minimal.
If you are looking for Chinese manufacturers, then you can use the sourcing websites where you can identify the Chinese manufacturers. But the best way to do is to get hold of a good Chinese manufacturer directory with which you can shortlist the best manufacturers of China that fulfill your criteria. You have to develop the list carefully. If the manufacturer is legitimate, it will offer references in the Chinese manufacturer directory and when you contact these references, you will know which manufacturers are worth continuing. In a good Chinese manufacturer directory, it is easy to get the first impressions and the website listings. In case the Chinese manufacturer has got a low-quality website listing or a poor attitude at a trade show, you can immediately strike out the manufacturer because these are the indicators of a less desirable manufacturing company.
Verifying the Best Suppliers by Using a Chinese Manufacturer Directory
Now, once the Chinese manufacturers are shortlisted, it is essential to verify a few things about the listed manufacturers. The first thing to check is the business license. It is absolutely legitimate to request a copy of the business license. And in case the Chinese manufacturing company shows any resistance, it is clearly a red flag. It is better not to proceed with the company any further. The business license of the company indicates that the services and products offered by the company are legal.
To verify about the best suppliers, you can also look at the local AIC website. Every province of China has got its own AIC and they function differently. This is why you have to search for the AIC province to know where the Chinese manufacturer is located. Once you have got the details of a manufacturer from the Chinese manufacturer directory, then you need to confirm the background of the company. After selecting the company, you must also check in the Chinese manufacturer directory about how long the manufacturer has been in operations, and whether the manufacturer has participated in any trade shows recently. Repeated participation in the trade shows is a good sign which shows that the manufacturer is earnest in creating relationships with customers.
Recommended Precautions while Finding Chinese Manufacturers
When you are looking for manufacturers in a Chinese manufacturer directory, you have to lay out your own requirements on price and quality. Only look at the factories which will meet your standards.
The next step is to carefully watch out for any red flag. Be alert to check out anything which could be wrong. The email you are replying, it must originate from the domain of the manufacturer, the phone number you are dialing should be the phone number given on the website and finally, the bank account must be located in China on the name of the manufacturer.
After you finalize the company and come to a mutual agreement with it, you have to conduct a vendor audit. The audit will confirm the quality management, ISO certifications, the tax compliance, environmental laws, ownership, reputation in China and overseas and finally, its financial status. You can hire a specialist to do this for you. The ideal solution will be to hire a multinational company that has its presence in both China and your own location. This will help you in getting easier access to the legal remedies in case of any malpractice.
Sourcing from China can offer you with a significant competitive advantage considering both the pricing and production capacity. But you need to learn about the cultural differences and gain a thorough knowledge of the business practices in China. You have to look for the authentic source of the manufacturing companies and only a good Chinese manufacturer directory can help you. With the help of a Chinese manufacturer directory it will become a lot of easier to sort out your relevant companies, or else it will be like finding a needle in a haystack. If you go with the expectation that all businesses are the same give and take polices and treat the relationship with Chinese manufacturers like any other local manufacturers, then you are in for a rude reality check. While doing business with Chinese manufacturers, it is imperative to communicate very clearly.

How the New York Yankees Match Up vs. Baltimore Orioles and Texas RangersOctober 4, 2012
How the New York Yankees Match Up vs. Baltimore Orioles and Texas Rangers
We know right now that the New York Yankees accomplished what every team in the American League sets out to do at the onset of each major league season: Win the division and try and win as many games as possible to secure home field advantage throughout the playoffs.
The 2012 Yankees have several flaws and questions in both their lineup and pitching staff, yet for all of the chatter about how this team was going to blow the division and possibly even miss the playoffs, the Bronx Bombers are a veteran-laden team that never choked and are now standing tall, getting ready for their first game on Sunday.
The Yankees will begin the playoffs on Sunday, at a time yet to be determined and at a location yet to be determined. However, we do know that once the dust settles on Friday night in Arlington, Texas, the Yankees will find themselves opposing either Texas or their division-rival from this season, Baltimore.
The playoff structure this season has changed and even though the Yankees finished with the best record in the AL, they will play their first two division series games on the road. Then, at minimum, one game will be played at Yankee Stadium (Game 3) with the potential for two more also in New York.
This year's structure is nearly identical to the first year of the wild card in 1995, though of course this season has the wild card vs. wild card playoff game just to get in to the main part of the ALDS. The Yankees finished very strong and have exceptionally hot hitters like Robinson Cano powering them into postseason play.
Now, Yankee fans have a few days to digest and concern themselves with the competition that will be standing in their way of a 41st American League pennant and 28th World Series championship. I have ranked Baltimore and Texas and out of those two, who the Yankees would prefer to play, based on how they match up.
Tomorrow, I will preview how the Yankees match up versus either Oakland or Detroit.
Here is a close look at each of the teams the Yankees could play on Sunday.
Baltimore Orioles
Rank: 2nd
The Baltimore Orioles and New York Yankees may not have seen the last of one another as the calendar turns to October. The Orioles have a crucial one-game wild card "winner takes all" matchup with the Rangers on Friday night in Arlington. If they win, the Bombers are off to Camden Yards on Sunday.
If Baltimore loses, their dream season is over.
The Orioles have gotten timely pitching from Miguel Gonzalez and Chris Tillman, in particular, though the strength of this O's team is their bats. Baltimore blasted the second-highest home run total of any team, behind only the Yankees.
How the Yankees match up:
The Yankees finished dead-even with Baltimore on the season, at 9-9, and most recently split a key four-game series at Camden Yards in early September. The Orioles power bats Adam Jones, Chris Davis and Matt Wieters help to fuel the lineup and all three players have had big years against the Yankees.
Matt Wieters particularly.
The Orioles pitching staff lowered their ERA from 4.05 before the All Star break to 3.73 after, showing considerable improvement, particularly from their starters. Jake Arrieta and Tommy Hunter weighed the staff down earlier in the year and their departures helped make way for Gonzalez, Tillman and Joe Saunders.
The Orioles are not a team that the Yankees should deeply fear at this stage. Their pitching staff is above-average but hardly great. In a slugging match, you have to favor the Yankees, particularly playing in two very hitter-friendly ballparks.
That said, Baltimore had a great record in the second half of the season and nearly came all the way back to win the division. If there's such a thing as the "it" factor, the Orioles seem to have just that. Though, the Yankees can rake, and overall, the Bombers pitching staff is simply better than the Orioles.
When it comes down to it, that's why the Yankees won the division. Even though on paper, it appears the Yankees are the better team, it's hard to dismiss the momentum and verve that this Baltimore team has. It will hardly be shocking if they beat Texas tomorrow night.
Texas Rangers
Rank: 1st (The Yankees would like to play Texas most)
It's hard to believe, but at this point, the Texas Rangers are the team the Yankees would most like to play. Now, I know what you're thinking, "You're out of your mind! What are you talking about?!"
Allow me to explain.
The Rangers lost seven of their last nine games and blew the lead they had in the AL West for virtually the entire season. The Rangers lineup is deep and they do hit for power, but it's not quite as deadly as it was last season.
That said, there's no question that this Rangers team can hit, but pitching is what wins games at this time of the year. Matt Harrison has been a solid starter for Texas all year long but he's no CC Sabathia. There's not one Texas starter that the Yankees—or any team for that matter—should be afraid of facing in a big game.
Yu Darvish has rebounded nicely after running into some bumps in the middle of the season to have a very fine rookie year, but one has to wonder how he'll respond after pitching nearly 200 innings this season. He'll get the ball on Friday night in Texas' biggest game of the season.
It will be fascinating to see how he pitches when the pressure is greatest. Even if Texas advances, it's entirely possible that the Yankees would not face him in a division series.
How the Yankees match up:
It's hard to ignore the fact that Texas is the two-time defending American League champion and perhaps even harder for some to ignore the Rangers dangerous offense that led the majors in runs scored.
But the Yankees offense is more potent than Texas and even more capable of hitting the ball out of the yard. The Yankees' pitching staff is superior. Most Yankee fans would likely feel more comfortable lining up Sabathia, Kuroda and Pettitte over Harrison, Dempster and Holland in a short series.
Again, bearing in mind that Yu Darvish would not be able to pitch until a possible Game 4.
Depending on whether you feel this matters, the Rangers don't have any momentum entering the playoffs, even if they win on Friday night. Sure, if they win, they'll get to start out at home for the ALDS, but the Yankees should feel comfortable going down to Texas and hitting against the Rangers' weaker starting pitching.
There just seems to be a feeling that this Rangers team is a bit of a sleeping giant. One that may already be out for the count.

The Wizard of Earth-9997 shares a similar history and origin as his Earth-616 counterpart. However, at some point in his past he had become crippled, and had been confined to a hover chair of his own making.
Being in the California area, he became a slave in the Skull's army, until the point where he went insane and the Skull could not control him anymore, at which point he ordered Marshall Muldoon to kill him.
Since his death The Wizard has remained in the Realm of the Dead, fighting pointless battles against the resident super-beings that have also died. After Mar-Vell destroyed Death and created Paradise, The Wizard was one of the many super-beings that who would be brought to this new afterlife. There he would consume a shard of the Cosmic Cube to create his own ideal paradise.
His fate following the invasion of Paradise by the Kree remains unrevealed.
Powers and Abilities
Seemingly those of The Wizard of Earth-616.

How To Make A Bitcoin Paper Wallet
In order to do this in the most correct form I'm going to give you the most thorough, reasonably secure version of creating a Bitcoin Paper Wallet. There are some steps you could add to this, but I feel that they are superfluous. However, it is possible to do this Tutorial without doing some of the steps. What you must understand is that, in taking shortcuts, you are possibly introducing security holes. If you want the absolute best security you can get follow this Tutorial exactly and you should be safe. If you want OK security then feel free to skip steps you don't wish to do.
First off we need to cover what you'll need in order to safely make a Bitcoin Paper Wallet. You'll need a computer that can boot from a flash drive. You'll need a printer that plugs in to USB, not wireless or Google Print. You'll need a flash drive that has at least 2GB of free space, although I'd recommend larger. You'll need to download an installer to load Linux on this flash drive. Don't be scared. It's not hard. Then you'll need a version of Linux to install on the drive. Finally, you'll need a copy of the BitAddress.org website directly from GitHub.
An up front warning, I'm writing this assuming you're on Windows. If you're running Mac there are tools out there to help you do the same things I'm putting down here. If you're running Linux already you probably already know how to do most of this. If I get messages and enough demand I can amend this post with instructions for Mac or Linux.
I'm going to assume that your computer can boot from USB because most computers these days can. If it will not do so automatically you may need to hit some keys to force your computer to boot from USB. You may even have to change a setting or two in your BIOS. Check your manuals or hit up Google for instructions on how to do that with your particular computer make and model.
The first step is to download the Universal USB Installer from Pen Drive Linux. It's a simple program that allows you to download a version of Linux from the Internet and install it on a flash drive in just a couple steps. It's very simple to use and I've had a lot of luck with it. Just download the program and run it. Choose a Linux distribution from the first dropdown. I recommend the latest Ubuntu desktop, but if someone recommends something else to you I have no complaints. Then insert your flash drive into the computer, select it from the second dropdown, and then click create. Once it says installation complete your bootable Linux flash drive is ready to go.
The second step is to download a copy of the BitAddress.org website. This is provided free on GitHub. BitAddress.org provides a lot of tools for creating wallets and they're all included in the code. You can create single wallets, nice looking paper wallets, bulk wallets, and multisig split wallets. I don't recommend brain wallets, so stay away from those and there are better tools to create a vanity wallet so leave that one be as well. But don't run it from the website. Go to the GitHub link above and look on the right side for the Download ZIP button. Download it to your computer first but do not unzip it. Copy it over to the flash drive you created in the first step.
The third step is to shut down your computer and unplug your network cable. If you're using wireless, possibly shut down your wireless router. Do whatever you must to keep your computer from connecting to the Internet for the rest of this Tutorial. Once your computer is shut down insert and boot from the flash drive you created in the first step. You may have to make a selection depending on the distribution you chose to install. For instance, if you chose Ubuntu, you should select "Try Ubuntu Without Installing". This will make it so that you can use Ubuntu for a time, reboot your computer, and then go back to Windows like nothing happened.
The fourth step is to use the BitAddress.org ZIP file you downloaded. Once your computer comes up to the desktop go to the File Manager. Find your flash drive in the File Manager and open it up. Locate the bitaddress.org-master.zip file on the flash drive. Double click to open it. You'll see a folder named bitaddress.org-master. Open that up as well. Find the file named bitaddress.org.html and double click on it to open it.
You should get a browser window that shows the BitAddress.org website. You'll need to move your mouse around the screen for a while to introduce some randomness called entropy to the random number generator built into the website. You'll see a bunch of green dots randomly being placed wherever your mouse goes. Once the counter on the site reaches 100% you've introduced enough randomness and a wallet Public Address and Private Key pair will show up. Congratulations, you've created your first secure Bitcoin Paper Wallet. On the Single Wallet tab you can create as many of these as you like by clicking Generate New Address. All you have to do is write down the key pair or use the Print button on the right to print out the information.
You may think that these wallets aren't very attractive. Click on the Paper Wallet tab at the top and you'll see some very nice looking Paper Wallets that look more like the fiat notes everyone is used to. Some other options here would be to print out more than 3 at a time, put more than 3 on a page to make them smaller, or add a password by clicking the box and typing in a password. This will require that you punch in a password when you try to access the funds, which may be a good idea.These wallets print very nicely and look nice stacked in a safe. I know because I used to do that to store my Bitcoin.
You could also use Hide Artwork to simply make a bigger list of the Paper Wallet you saw on the Single Wallet tab. It has the Public Address, Private Key, and the QR code for each. It's low-key, easy to store, easy to hide, and very effective.
On the Bulk Wallet tab you have the option to simply create a list of Public Addresses and Private Keys. The website recommends you use this on your own website to receive Bitcoin. There are much simpler ways of doing this, so I'll recommend against that particular use. But you can use this method and it works very well.
The only other tab I'd recommend here is the Split Wallet tab. This is used to create the paper version of a multi-sig wallet like you can create in Copay. As a long term storage solution in case of disaster like flood or fire, this is wonderful. For instance you could create a minimum threshold 2 wallet with 3 Shares and print them out. You could store one Share at home, one Share in a bank deposit box, and possibly one Share with a lawyer or family member you trust. If a disaster happens to one of the three the other two could be used to move the funds. You can also use this page to recombine the Shares to get a Master Private Key. I don't recommend doing this until you want to access the funds stored there.
Once you're done creating and printing your Paper Wallets just shut down the computer, remove the flash drive from the USB port, connect your computer to the Internet again, and start it back up. Your computer will be the same as it was before you booted from the flash drive, like nothing ever happened. Now, store that flash drive in a lock box or someplace safe. You can use it again the next time you want to create some paper wallets.

Juan Rodríguez was released from prison July 4, 2008.
For the update, see below.
The Cuban dictatorship has no one to blame but itself, for the trouble it claims inmate Juan Luis Rodríguez Desdín is causing at the Cuba Sí prison in Holguín. The dictatorship should have seen it coming.
After all, the regime in July 2006 declared Rodríguez, a human rights activist affiliated with the Eastern Democratic Alliance, a "social danger," — the Orwellian thought crime it frequently uses to silence, and lock up its critics — and sentenced him to two years prison. I was unable to determine exactly what Rodríguez did to "earn" his punishment; his opposition to the dictatorship probably sufficed.
Ever since he was jailed, Rodríguez has been nothing but a "danger," reporting frequently on the poor conditions in prison and the heavy handed treatment by guards.
Independent journalist Caridad Caballero Batista reports that guards frequently move Rodríguez around the prison, in order to disrupt his continued anti-castro activism.
Recently, Rodríguez apparently was the chief suspect in a very grave crime within the walls at Cuba Sí. In retaliation, the prison's chief guard, a cretin named Juan Carlos Reinaldo Lucas, recently inspected Rodríguez's belonginges, read his personal documents and seized a letter intended for his mother, according to Caballero's report.
The crime?
Someone had posted signs in a prison classroom declaring, "Abajo Fidel" and "Viva Bush."
There's no word in Caballero's report whether Rodríguez was "guilty," but if he is, he's a "dangerous" man indeed.
And Cuba is better, for it.
(This profile was originally posted at Babalú.)
UPDATED, Jan. 25, 2008
Rodríguez was one of several political prisoners transferred out of the Cuba Sí prison, apparently to keep them from attending a prison concert by folk singer/Castro apologist Silvio Rodríguez. The prisoners denounced the concert, as well as a recent prison remodeling, as a farce meant to disguise the reality of the Cuban gulag.
One of the surest indicators of the repressive nature of the Castro regime is the jailing of more than 200 political prisoners. To illustrate that reality, Uncommon Sense each week profiles one prisoner. There also is a Political Prisoner archive on the left sidebar. To suggest a prisoner for a profile, send me an e-mail.
For profiles of imprisoned Cuban journalists and related information, read the March 18 Project.

On November 29, 2011, one of the greatest stand-up comics of all time passed away. If you never saw him live, the genius of Patrice O'Neal is not something easily described. He was beyond a comic's comic. For anyone who ever met him, saw him perform, was on the receiving end of his signature trash talking, or simply passed him on the street, it was an experience you would never forget. The 7th Annual Patrice O'Neal Comedy Benefit Concert is a night of stand-up comedy to honor the memory of a master comedian, and inspiration to all who knew him, and a true friend.
The show is always an unforgettable one, remembering one of the best comedians of our time. In addition to giving New Yorkers the opportunity to talk about Patrice every year, the benefit always puts on a stellar line up. This year's performers include Big Jay Oakerson, Bill Burr, Chris Redd, Cipha Sounds (DJ), Gary Gulman, Jim Gaffigan and Michelle Wolf. Legend Rich Vos will host, and most likely sell tshirts.

What to Consider Before Getting Antique Rug Restoration in New York City
Most homeowners buy antique rugs and place them in different parts of the house to better the inner look of their houses. To maintain the beauty of your rug, regular cleaning is needed because just like other furniture in your home, carpets catch dirt. If your main reason for using rugs is to increase the aesthetic appeal of your house, then it is important to keep them clean and fresh.
Not many homeowners can clean their rugs on a regular basis, especially because they do not have enough time to take the rug and clean them by hand. Lack of properly maintaining your carpet will lead to the need for antique rug restoration in New York City. If your rug is already damaged, you can have it restored at the expense of a specific cost. However, if you have an antique rug, make sure that proper steps have been followed to ensure that the antique rug remains intact and in a good condition during the restoration time.
Before the restoration process begins, there are a number of things that you need to consider. To start with, you need to consider the value of the rug. If your rug is cheap and it requires a lot of money to clean and repair it, then you may not need to consider restoring the rug. It is also important to consider the age of the carpet. If you have used the rug for a long time and its look doesn't enhance the new look of a room, it might be better to consider buying a new rug rather than having the old one restored.
The other thing that you should consider is the degree of the damage. If the rug is badly damaged, it is important that you stay away from restoring the rug and buy a new one.
Antique rug restoration in New York City should only be considered if the rug needs be restored into a good, solid condition. The restoration process should be carried out by a professional cleaner to ensure that it is done properly and adequately. If you have an antique rug that you want be restored, look no further than The Golden Horn. They have proven experience in rug cleaning and restoration services.

Okay, friends. I have to tell you that I am in so much love with my newest discovery. I was browsing Target the other day as I waited to pick my kids up from school, and I came across a small aisle full of fun makeup bags. Now, I've already found a way to turn makeup storage into office storage when I used a clear acrylic makeup brush holder to hold dozens of my favorite markers and pens. But this new discovery was even better!
Target has so many cute makeup bags of various sizes, and they each have their own internal organizational system. I was especially enamored with the Orla Kiely bags, which are SO funky and adorable! But they are a bit more expensive than my needs allow. In fact, as I looked around, I realized that I could never justify spending money on a makeup bag, as I just don't have enough makeup! But as I looked around, inspiration suddenly struck, and I started to think – what if I could use one of these for craft storage? And suddenly I knew! This would be the PERFECT portable BuJo system!
I settled on this weekender bag, as it was a perfect size and had different compartments inside, which I thought would be seriously awesome to hold various supplies. Plus, it is totally cute! And while it is normally $24.99, for some reason in my local store, it was on sale for only $14! I couldn't resist!
I tried to figure out which of my journaling supplies were absolute staples. I thought about the things I use most regularly. I gathered them up and wondered if they would all fit. It sure looked like a lot of things! But to my surprise, they all fit in with plenty of room to spare! I literally could fit twice as much stuff inside with no issues!
Seriously, for traveling, this is an easy way to keep your supplies with you without losing them. But for everyday portability it is even better! My journal normally stays in my craft room, which is a shame since I'd use it much more if it was with me. But I don't like to have to gather supplies and run in and out to get what I need. By keeping all the basics together, I am ensuring I can have exactly what I need on hand at all times. This makeup bag could even fit in one of my larger purses, so I could bring it with me anywhere I go. Or, because it's so darn cute, I could just carry it with me like a purse! There's even enough room that I could put my phone, keys and wallet inside!
Frankly, I am super impressed with my new system. I even have some thoughts on customization in future. How awesome would it be to create a couple of pockets that can go on the outside of the bag? Or add a few fun embellishments such as felt flowers or embroidery?
I'm so thrilled with my discovery, and I hope others will be, too!
Here's a full list of what is inside my bag:
Lemon Yellow Leuchtturm 1917 Journal
Bic White Out Tape
Scotch Scrapbooking Tape
Westcott 6in Ruler
Mechanical Pencil
Staedtler Triplus Fineliners
Prismacolor Markers
Scotch Expressions Washi Tape
Recollections Organize It Stickers

I even created a quick video vlog to show you all how amazing it is. Enjoy!

Craterside Supply is a store located in Megaton in Fallout 3. It can be found by going right and following the path as soon as the Lone Wanderer enters Megaton.
The store opens at 8:00 am, and the owner Moira Brown's stock, as well as her caps, refresh on Mondays and Thursdays. The shop sells anything one might need, and as most of the Megaton settlers point out, usually at a good price. Speaking with Moira will grant the option of buying items, or starting the Wasteland Survival Guide quest.
Craterside Supply is guarded by a single mercenary who upon interaction replies he is "watching [the visitor]," although during her quest he might say to "leave him out of that girl's crazy experiments" as he "does not get paid enough for that," referring to the help the Lone Wanderer is giving Moira. Any negative interaction with Moira, such as getting caught stealing or injuring her, will lead to the mercenary turning hostile and retaliating.
By 2297, the store lives on under Moira's ownership and is the hub of the Wasteland Survival Guide distribution network.[1]
On the right upon entry, the counter is just beyond the entrance, with an armored Vault 101 jumpsuit behind it and a locker that contains some of Moira's inventory, but it cannot be picked. Moira's terminal with a Very Easy lock is directly to the left, containing information on Moira's other experiments.
Near that is another fully stocked locker which can also only be opened with Moira's key. On another side, the mercenary stands with his back against the wall alongside a workbench and a doorway. Walking through the doorway leads to the stairway and the bed owned by the mercenary.
Going upstairs leads to a small living room which contains only a sofa. The opening in this room leads to Moira's bedroom, which contains a Hard locked desk and Moira's bed.
Notable lootEdit
- A bottlecap mine on the workbench next to Moira's mercenary.
- Two boxes of sugar bombs are on the bottom shelf in the northwest corner of the first floor, which can be used for the unmarked quest Murphy's Bombing Run.
- The unique armored Vault 101 jumpsuit can be stolen from behind the counter if the Lone Wanderer declines the Wasteland Survival Guide quest.
Related questsEdit
- Moira's terminal has a few humorous bits of info on it. The three options are to check the store inventory, Survival Guide progress, and "track current experiments." The current experiments can be found on this page.
- "Noclipping" through the wall inside will reveal two lockers. Opening them allows one to steal themes or objects for the Megaton house.
- The mole rat repellent stick can be stolen from Moira's Hard locked desk upstairs, but only if the optional part for that part of the quest was not completed.
The Craterside Supply appears only in Fallout 3.
- Playstation 3 If one enters Craterside Supply just a moment or two after it first opens, the guard and Moira will react as if one had picked the lock to get in. [verified]
- Playstation 3 Using the right stick to pick up an item may result in Moira and her mercenary guard attacking the player as if witnessed stealing. [verified]
- PC When the time comes for Moira to close the shop and the Lone Wanderer is still in with their companions if they go out their companions will stay inside. [verified]

Reputation management can help you stay on top in your personal and professional life. This article contains helpful tips. You should keep reading since there is plenty of useful information provided below.
Always stay in touch with your customers, particularly after they have done business with you. This is especially the case if your business is larger. Customers would like to feel as if they actually matter to your company. Automated systems can be used for following up. Make sure you ask them to report in on their recent purchase experiences as well.
When dealing with negative feedback about your business, a good offense is the best defensive strategy. Ensure that lots of happy, positive commentary exists, and the few negative items will pale in comparison. Also remember to keep your content fresh and positive in order to negate any possibility of negative feedback mattering.
Try to make dissatisfied customers as happy as possible. Turning a customer's negative experience into a good one will show your customer that you care. It's even better when you get to do this on the Internet. You will show customers and prospective customers that you are willing to address any issue, which makes them more likely to do future business with you.
Search phrases that relate to your business should be used on your web pages. This is generally the name of your company. Google places a high priority on authoritativeness. If you are viewed by them as an authority, your site should rank highly in the SERPs.
Stay up-to-date on the latest news about your services. This helps to maintain your good standing as someone who provides updated and useful information. Take a few minutes each day to run an online search to get the newest facts about the industry you're in.
Monitor the presence you have online. You can't be sure when a negative review can pop up from someone that doesn't like you, your business, or is just an unhappy customer. Staying on top of search engine results helps you keep negative commentary in check. Try to do this bi-monthly.
Cultivating a professional tone in your social media accounts makes a big difference in how you are perceived. These pages represent who you are, so it is important that no one is given a chance to see them in a negative light. While you should open up a bit in order to let people see the person behind the business, there is a limit to how far you should go with this.
If you list a sale as private, keep it that way. If a discount is involved, this is particularly true. You do not want others to lodge similar complaints so that they may take advantage of getting a similar deal.
If you find non-factual information about your company online, consider petitioning the owner of the site. You can have this information removed. Most webmasters will happily remove such content if you are able to demonstrate that such content is actually libelous.
You should now know what to do to manage your reputation. It's important that you are careful with all of this so you get good results. Start now, and your reputation can start improving tomorrow.
