Escondido, CA
An incredibly dark brown that doesn't quite hit black. Gorgeous and thick brown head that stays for a while and eventually leaves rich lacing down the glass. Very pretty.
A wonderful aroma of coffee and chocolate. Little hop presence. Smells rich and lovely.
An incredible amount of flavor. There's tons of coffee, and chocolate, and even some significant hop presence. Bitter yet sweet, nearly perfect. Very good.
Rich mouthfeel, ample carbonation, very nice.
An exceptionally good oatmeal stout. It does everything right.

4.43/5 rDev +6.5%
look: 4 | smell: 4.5 | taste: 4.5 | feel: 4 | overall: 4.5
Appearance: Dark Brown, Almost Black, Creamy Tan Head upon pour that fades quickly to nothing but lacing around the outer edges.
Smell: Roasted Malts, Chocolately Oats, bit of Toffee and Molasses. Very Slight almost fruity background yeast aroma.
Taste: Roasted Malt up front, Toffee in the middle, slight Chocolate Oats finish.
Mouthfeel: Very Refreshing, medium Carbonation, nice maltly, oaty aftertaste.
Drinkability: I'm a fan of this style of beer so I find very drinkable, it's not a session or lawn mower beer, but I could put a couple bottles away with no problem.

look: 4 | smell: 3.5 | taste: 4.5 | feel: 4 | overall: 4
A: Black, nearly imperceptible to see through. Thick two fingers of brown cookie dough head. Consistent lacing.
S: Chocolate and roasted malts with a hint of toffee.
T: Thick oat flavor all the way through. Great transition from oats in the nose to roastyness from middle to rear. Almost a finish of burnt grain hanging about.
M: Leaves a not too heavy feeling on the palate. Mouthfeel though does take a bit of the 6% with it.
D: Its very good, nothing overpowering or lacking.

look: 3.5 | smell: 4 | taste: 4.5 | feel: 2.5 | overall: 4
Appearance -- Pours a deep dark brown with slim chestnut edges. Zero head on this pint.
Smell -- The aroma is quite roasty with black malt, cocoa, coffee, and black strap molasses sweetness.
Taste -- Black malt, iced coffee, bakers chocolate. Molasses sweetness counterbalanced by earthy hops. The iced coffee flavor is uncanny. Very nice.
Mouthfeel -- Medium body with low carbonation. Otherwise, the body is on point. This lack of bubbles was probably the fault of the establishment I drank this at, but still is not distracting.
Drinkability -- Rogue fans usually cite this as their favorite offering, and I can see the appeal. Good balance and a nice blend of roast flavors. This is definitely one of the better oatmeal stouts I've ever had.

From 22 oz bottle.
A - Nice brown head with 2-finger head that lingers. Nothing "Exceptional".
S - Love the sweet hints of chocolate and toasted oats and coffee here.
T - smooth. velvety beer that hides its 60 IBUs of bitterness extremely well. Maybe a touch on the hoppy side for an oatmeal stout. Very fresh taste.
M - great carbonation and a smooth beer for the gullet.
O - enjoyable, drinkable, doesn't get you canned in a single 22. I brewed a batch after enjoying this beer.

A: dark and beautiful in my pint glass. Lots of tiny bubbles ripple up the sides to support the brew's tan head. Average lacing.
S: best part of this beer! Huge oats & nutty aromas. Chocolate, coffee, roasty malts too.
T/M: dark, roasty malts; bitter coffee; chocolate and mild oats at the end. A creamy and smooth full-bodied brew.
O: great stuff from Rogue. Love the nuttiness in the nose, wish it showed up stronger in the taste.

Poured from a 22oz bottle into a pint glass.
A: Pours a deep opaque brown, nearly black color with thick fluffy head forming at the top of the pour. Significant lacing throughout the glass.
S: Roasted malts and coffee notes hit the nose. Creamy oat and caramel tones are also present.
T: Sweet oats and caramel tones burst onto the tongue at the outset of the sip. Some bitter coffee flavors enter in the middle to accompany the rich caramel flavors and linger through the finish of the sip.
M: Mouthfeel is thick and creamy. Prickly carbonation hit the tongue from start to finish.
Overall, this is an excellent oatmeal stout. The complex flavor profile indicates the quality of this product and is exactly what one would look for in this style.

Good solid stout beer. Nice mocha head. Dark full looking body. Smells good, nothing outstanding.
Had no idea what to expect from this beer but Rogue has been pretty stand up in my book so I thought I'd try it. It was $7 for a 22 oz. bottle.
Good, solid stout beer. Would not turn it down, but would not seek it out. Happy to have it whenever it's around.

Poured from the bottle into a nonic pint glass.
Giant fist full head created off the pour. Head is tight like a rock with a fistfull cap like head and light brown colored. Falls fairly slowly, sitting on a dark walnut body. Not much else to say not much sticky lacing while drinking.
Good malt and mild cocoa off the nose, kind of has that oatmeal stout feel, that grainy husk thing going for it (similar to Samuel Smith). Feels a little dense. Things are looking up!
Taste at first is a bit bitter and a nice hop actually. Chocolate and malt feeling hits on the end with a nice roast that hints at cigarette tobacco. It's a bit wet though but also has a nice bitterness.
Overall I like my Oatmeal stouts just a tad thicker than this but you know I can't complain about this one right here, it will do no problem.

On nitro-tap at Mikro last week.
Pours jet black with a solid nitro head that leaves abundant lacing. What else can be expected from a nitro-tap?
Mild aroma of roasted malts and some espresso.
Very flavorful, at first there is a touch of roasted malt, then just a little chocolate, but the coffee, oats, and roasted aftertaste make this stout stand out. Very robust for the ABV.
Creamy smooth and at the lower end of medium bodied.
I drank this one slowly as I enjoyed fish and chips, this is an excellent stout regardless of the nitro-tap and I hope to try the bottled version soon.

poured from a 22oz bomber, into a pint glass.
100% black as the sidebars here on the BA webpage. actually held the last 2" up to a lightbulb, still no penetration. nice, creamy brown head that sticks to the sides and hangs around through the whole glass.
the smell is a subtle mix of the chocolate malt, some earthy undertones and a bit of toasted maltiness. maybe a hint of fruitiness from the pac-man...
wonderful balance on the palate. no single flavor jumps out at you, but instead mingles together on the tongue. minimal bitterness, the hops are extremely smooth and the malt is robust enough to really round this beer out.
overall - i still prefer rogue's chocolate stout, but this is a solid, workhorse of a beer and always worth a roll.

A: pours a dark definitive brown. One finger loose toasted wheat head takes it's time falling down to a thick sheet of the same. Spotty lacing.
S: toasty, smells of pine bark, evident bitterness on the nose here for me. hints of coffee, cocoa beans. Not bad, not what I had expected either. nice. Slightest hint of graham and cinnamon as it warms.
T: More coffee than anticipated, but def less than an east coast coffee beer. Bitter in the back. Not very complex. Plenty of oats, toasty oats.
M: Heavy with medium to high carb. Dry and cloying at the same time. Wish the carb was a bit lower and the beer was smoothed out more.
O: Decent beer, but not a go to for stouts, or oatmeal stouts. Uncertain of the greatness this beer has acheived provided the beer is quite simple.

22oz bottle picked up because i havnt had this since i started my exploration of craft beer. drank from my samuel adams perfect pint glass.
A- this one pours out an opaque black body that no light can penetrate. a finger of coffee colored head sits on top. the head takes its time falling, and leaves behind solid rings of lacing. you cant ask for anything more from this. perfect.
S- the first thing i pick out of the nose are dark roasted malts. not really burnt smelling, but definitely not light roasted. after that i get alot of dark chocolate and a little bit of smoke. dark roast coffee on the finish.
T- the taste starts out with the dark roasted malts that i could smell. after that i get lots of dark chocolate and a little bit of milk chocolate. there is less smoke in the taste than in the nose. the coffee on the finish comes on strong and leaves a long lingering aftertaste.
M- thinner than im used to for a stout. on the lower side of medium bodied. the carbonation seems a bit high also. very smooth and creamy.
O- this is one of rogues better beers, although i think you have to pay a little too much for what you get. still a pleasure to drink and something that often gets overlooked because of how common it is. there is alot of flavor packed into this somewhat small beer.

Review taken from notes
A - This beer pours a very dark brown color. It has a nice 2-finger frothy tan head. The head has pretty good retention and leaves some nice lacing on the glass. This is a beautiful looking beer.
S - It smells of deep roasted malts up front. There is a pretty big hop presence here for an oatmeal stout. I am also getting notes of chocolate, coffee, a touch of dark fruits, and some smokiness.
T - This mostly tastes of dark roasted malts and chocolate. There are some notes of coffee, dark fruits, and theres some hop presence. The finish is dry and there is a slight hoppy bitterness as well.
M - It has a medium body with nice tingly carbonation. It goes down easy and has nice flavor. It's rich and creamy, and theres a bit of lingering bitterness in the finish.
D - The drinkability here is good. It goes down easy, and I could definitely drink a few of these in a sitting. I would definitely pick this one up again.

Had this from the handpump into a mug.
3.5 A: Black with a creamy brown cask head. Average retention and no lacing.
3.5 S: Some chocolate, oats, and yeast. Overall, rather dry and unassuming.
3.0 T: Pretty boring. Oats, somewhat chalky dryness, and woody yeast. Light roastiness.
3.5 M: Medium body. Good carbonation for cask. However, it not ridiculously creamy like a lot of beers from cask. Otherwise, okay.
3.0 D: Not bad, but probably the worst cask beer I've ever had. Just not enough flavor going on.

A: Pours a deep black with no light penetration whatsoever. Nice mocha colored head, about 1.5 fingers in height. Very nice lacing down the sides.
S: Upfront I get a lot of chocolate and cocoa, however underneath that I get some sweetness from the oatmeal and a little bit of coffee.
T: This beer has a nice hop presence. The flavor is rounded out with lots of roasted malts, a little bit of chocolate, and a touch or two coffee.
M: Medium bodied with a nice mouthfeel, it coats my mouth.
O: A solid Oatmeal stout, however i would have liked more of an oatmeal flavor less on the chocolate. Overral i still very much enjoy this beer

Upfront coffee with a subtle oat chocolate finish. With some time there is a very clear hop finish, every strong bitterness but hard to place with the coffee and oat aromas dominating.
Nothing stand out here, there's coffee and chocolate, slightly over powered by the bitter hops at the finish. Subtle oat flavors that seem to meld all of this together and create a very uniform flavor that mixes everything together vs spreading the flavors out.
Insanely smooth, mellow, the alcohol is hard to notice, the hops at a bit of a bite but exactly what is called for here.
Not the best oatmeal stout. There's a bit more that can be done here especially in the flavors. It's subtle in ways I don't love and yet it's so balanced it works. A great stout? Perhaps not, but a very good one.

Wow, a really nice selection from Rogue. Pours a black with a tan head. Lots of lacing. Smell was not overpowering, some roasted malts, not too sweet. This reminded me of a dry Irish stout, maybe thats the oatmeal. Chocolate notes with the accompanying bitterness, coffee, and some grain. Smooth and drinkable. A really good beer.

Had a coupon for $1-off any bomber at Total Wine. Decided to grab something that I continually pass over. This one jumped out at me this time around. And it's a "Top-100" Popular beer to boot!
Poured into a pint glass. Pours an absolute black. No light-penetrance at all. A small half-finger tan head sits atop. Retains well enough for its size. Minor bits of lace cling around. The nose is sweet with sugar cookie, oatmeal, brown sugar, and coffee. Very nice.
This beer starts out more on the bubbly side, which I wasn't expecting given that this is an Oatmeal Stout. As it warms, this mellows out to become quite a smooth drink. Shame on me for drinking it too fast! Big roasted flavors abound, but are well-balanced with sweet syrup, oats, and milk chocolate. Faint twig-like flavor on the finish. Good stuff here. Why I passed over this for so long annoys me. I'll have this one again.

Bought a bomber at my local bottle shop.
A- Good looking stout. It pours very dark, essentially black. A nice, full, dense head that is a fairly dark brown. The head dissipates within a minute or two with nice lacing on the glass.
S-Pretty good aroma. Smells of mocha and some nuttiness, but with a very nice malty body. Can't smell any hops or much alcohol on the back end.
T-The mocha, coffee like flavor hits immediately with the alcohol taking over soon thereafter. The alcohol is a bit overbearing and it lingers for a significant period of time after it goes down. The body doesn't have much sweetness to it in order to help mask some of the strong alcohol flavors.
M-The body does not live up to what the aroma promises. The beer feels unnaturally light going down with the alcohol overpowering the rest of the flavors. Alcohol lingers at the end.
D-I expected much more from this beer. Not something I would purchase again, whether it be in a bottle or on tap anywhere.

22 ounce bottle into a snifter
A: The beer pours black in color with a 1.5 finger mocha head that has moderate retention and pretty good lacing.
S: Oats, grapes, raisins, and that's about it. I was surprised there weren't more deeper roast/caramel/chocolate smells. Instead the overall smell is quite light.
T: There's a lot more roast in the flavor than the smell foreshadowed. I like the balance of oats and roast, but there's not much else there. I don't get much if any of the dark fruits that I was expecting based on the nose. There's also not much hop back end.
M: Pretty good aftertaste and nice level of carbonation, but a little bit thin for my liking.
D: Overall this has pretty good drinkability as it goes down easy, although the lack of complexity doesn't lend itself to wanting a whole lot.

Oneida County won't build business park
Submitted: 01/14/2014
Enlarge Image
- Towns use industrial and business parks to help attract business to their area.
The county spent more than $500,000 for the land.
But it didn't work out.
Now they're making steps to sell the land.
The land is on Rifle Road next to Northwood golf course.
They bought the it from Wausau Paper.
One Oneida County Board member feels it's in the County's best interests to sell the property.
"There are several problems with the land. Which it surprises me that the County Board went along with it. You can't access it from Highway 8, you can't access it through the Oldenburg property because they won't let us. The only place you can access it is from the Golf Course. To get to the usable portions of the land you have to cross swamp meaning you have to build some type of a bridge," said Jerry Shidell.
Rhinelander City Administrator Blaine Oborn said at the time it made sense to buy the land.
"Given the economy I think they bought it when the economy was doing well and everything was expanding. Now since then we're in a downturn," said Oborn.
They could take action at the next County Board meeting.

Summer temperatures impact local toy sales

- Summer gets us outside playing games on the lake or in the yard, but with cooler temperatures this year, trips to the lake may not be as popular.
That impacts certain businesses in a good way. Imaginuity toys stores in Minocqua and Rhinelander have noticed a difference in the toys they've sold this summer.
"We're definitely getting a lot more traffic with the cooler temperatures. A lot more people in the door, which we're loving. We are seeing a lot more people buying more project based items. They're buying a lot of the active play but not so much the water active," said Jessica Hatch, Store Manager.

Wisconsin named #1 in cranberry production; Northwoods farm contributes to keeping title
Submitted: 07/25/2014
Play Video
- Wisconsin continues to be the best state nationwide when it comes to producing cranberries. One Northwoods farm is preparing to make this year even better.
James Lake Farms in Three Lakes harvested close to 8,000 barrels last year. They hope to meet those expectations this year.
Right now they are in the growing season. The assistant manager believes Wisconsin is a natural environment for growing cranberries.
"It's fairly consistent as compared to somewhere out on the coast where most of the other cranberries are grown. I think a lot of those things combined help make it a good place to grow," said James Lake Farms Assistant Manager Benjamin Riker.

Trapping convention in Upper Peninsula a congregation of nostalgic veterans, enthusiastic active trappers

- There's a certain nostalgia, to be sure, about trapping.
"A lot of us even kind of try to look like the old mountain men. Maybe you've noticed," says the grizzled and bearded Dave Linkhart, a trapper and officer of the National Trappers Association.
But it's more than just the old mountain men-types doing something that has been done for centuries in North America.
The trapping world is more expansive than you might expect, and more than setting some traps, waiting, and checking what animals you've caught.

By FELICIA KRIEG
---- — PLATTSBURGH — A three-time felony offender was sentenced recently to state prison for assaulting three parole officers last year.
Kip R. Banker, 45, of AuSable pleaded guilty in Clinton County Court to three counts of attempted assault of a police or peace officer and criminal mischief, according to the Clinton County District Attorney's Office.
Banker was sentenced by Judge Patrick R. McGill to 16 years in prison with five years post-release supervision. Banker's crimes carried a minimum of seven years in prison and a maximum of 67 years.
"We are extremely pleased with the sentence, in light of Mr. Banker's history of violence, especially against law enforcement," Assistant District Attorney Nicholas Evanovich said in the release. "It was a miracle that no one was seriously injured or killed that day."
The assault happened on April 18, 2012, when Parole Officers Michael J. Moore and Matthew Daly and Senior Parole Officer Robert J. Fall were conducting a routine visit at Banker's residence at 609 Allen Hill Road in AuSable.
Banker tried to flee the officers and ran into the woods. He was seen at 1:30 p.m. that day driving a farm tractor on Allen Hill Road.
When officers tried to stop him, Banker used the tractor to force a parole vehicle with three officers inside off the road. The vehicle almost plunged over an earth embankment with one of the officers trapped inside, the DA's Office said in a press release.
Banker used the tractor to pin Moore, who had gotten out of the vehicle, against a tree. When Banker pulled the tractor away, it almost ran over the other officer, who had also managed to get out of the parole vehicle.
The officers fired in self defense, but no shots hit Banker, the DA's Office said. Still on the tractor, Banker fled the site of the assault, later entering the woods on foot.
He was arrested shortly thereafter.
The parole officers were not seriously injured.
At the time of the crime, Banker was on parole supervision for a previous assault conviction, according to the DA's Office.
Banker rejected plea offers of 10, 12 and 14 years incarceration at various stages of the case, the DA's Office said. He eventually pleaded guilty to the entire indictment, including the attempted assaults and criminal mischief for totaling the parole vehicle.
It was not Banker's first run-in with law officers. On Nov. 29, 2006, he led police on a high-speed chase in Clinton County and assaulted an officer, Carole Weaver, a spokesperson for the State Department of Corrections and Community Supervision, said in April 2012.
In 2008, Banker was given a determinant sentence of three and a half years for that crime, Weaver said.
He served two years and one month in state prison, Weaver said.
Banker was released May 6, 2010, with post-release supervision that would have continued a maximum of three years, until May of this year.
He was represented by attorney Matthew Favro.

White House: Obama To Tap Janet Yellen For Fed Chair
The White House announced Tuesday that President Obama will nominate Federal Reserve Vice Chairwoman Janet Yellen to chair the Federal Reserve Wednesday. She would replace Ben Bernanke, who's stepping down from the post. Yellen has been the presumptive nominee for weeks, after Lawrence Summers announced his intention to remove himself from the running in September. She'd be the first woman to head the Fed.

U.S. Rep. Kerry Bentivolio, R-Milford, announced three additions to his staff today. Tony Lis will serve as his District Director, Matt Chisholm will work as his Communications Director, and Sarah Ledford will fill the role of Deputy District Director, according to a news release from Bentivolio's office.
"I'm proud to announce the addition of these three experienced individuals to our team," Bentivolio said in the news release. "Delivering first-class constituent services to the people of Michigan's 11th district is my number one priority and our team will work hard over the next two years to exceed expectations."
Tony Lis brings over a decade of experience to Bentivolio's staff, the news release indicated. Prior to serving as the Field Director on the Congressman's campaign, Tony worked for Gov. Rick Snyder's gubernatorial campaign. Additionally, he has advised and worked in outreach roles for numerous clients, including John McCain's presidential bid. Lis will oversee the operations of Congressman Bentivolio's district office in Commerce Township.
Matt Chisholm, who will work out of the Washington office, joins the Congressman's staff from Strategic National where he worked as a political consultant advising several federal and statewide campaigns, the news release indicated. Chisholm's previous experience includes working on Jon Huntsman's presidential bid and Snyder's gubernatorial campaign.
A graduate of Walled Lake Northern High School and the University of Michigan, Sarah Ledford contributes years of public affairs experience to Congressman Bentivolio's district office, the news release indicated. Most recently, she worked for Strategic Public affairs where she specialized in healthcare and higher education services. Prior to this, Ledford worked in business development with The Windquest Group. Ledford currently serves as a Vice-Chair of the Michigan Republican Party, the news release indicated.

Tonawanda News — Last year's Tonawanda girls basketball team did something no other team in program history was able to do: win a regular season ECIC IV title. Four key members are gone off that team, yet the Lady Warriors (6-2, 2-0 ECIC IV) seem to have picked up right where they left off and look to be the class of the league once again in 2013.
A big reason why is senior center Joanna McCarthy. For a big she isn't very imposing and she sort of blends in with the rest of her teammates during warm ups. That is, until, the game begins.
That's when McCarthy comes alive. She thrives during athletic competition, playing volleyball in the fall and softball in the spring after basketball season ends, but hoops is her true passion.
Through nine games McCarthy is averaging 14.4 points and 11.6 rebounds per game and has notched seven double-doubles along the way. She lives in the paint, fighting through double teams and hitting the offensive boards with tenacity — her skills around the basket on both ends of the court make her one of the best bigs in the league.
Lady Warriors coach Jay Hall isn't surprised in the least at the numbers McCarthy is putting up — she averaged 9.6 points and 7.3 rebounds last season — and said where she really makes the difference is with the way she conducts herself, both on and off the court.
"She's a great kid. On the court, basketball is it," he said. "She takes it seriously and she helps getting the other kids together. She's a great leader, even if she's having a bad shooting day. It'll bother her but it won't get her so down that she stops shooting or doesn't rebound. She tries to pick others up and motivate others."

Please use the buttons below to see more information on Saracens and matches between Exiles and Saracens over the years.
London Irish
Fixture Type: Aviva Premiership
Match Date: Sat 07 Sep 2013
Kick Off: 14:00
Venue: Twickenham
Referee: Greg Garner
TV Match Official: Graham Hughes
Assistant Referee: Paul Burton
Assistant Referee: Ashley Rowden
Saracens scored four tries to London Irish's two to record a 42 points to 20 victory. The score line does not do the London Irish performance justice. They showed plenty of heart and determination throughout. Saracens outmuscled Irish at the breakdown, and as a result won penalties to ensure Owen Farrell could keep the scoreboard ticking over.
Saracens took an early lead by virtue of a Owen Farrell penalty on four minutes with the Lions fly half at the heart of everything good Saracens did throughout the first half.
Jamie George crossed for the first of his brace of tries on 10 minutes. The Saracens pack carried well into the heart of the Irish defence and intricate slight of hands allowed George to crash over.
Irish stamped their authority on the contest with some fantastic line breaks by Topsy Ojo, who was wearing the number 15 shirt. Ojo's second line break led to the Exiles first 3 points of the afternoon off the boot of Ian Humphreys.
Farrell cancelled out the Humphreys penalty before Saracens were celebrating their second try on 36 minutes. A great forward move off the lineout saw George finish well in the corner.
The Irish reply was emphatic. Marland Yarde, who chased the re-starts hard all day, stole the ball off Ernst Joubert and offloaded to David Paice who passed to Kieran Low who fended off two defenders before diving under the posts. Humphreys added the extras to make it 18-10 to Saracens.
Farrell kicked his third penalty on the stroke of half time to give Saracens a 21-10 lead at half time.
Saracens continued to build a score at the start of the second half with Farrell adding two quick penalties. Humphreys cut the deficit with his second penalty before British and Irish Lion, Mako Vunipola came off the bench, making an immediate impact as he crashed over for Saracens third try.
Topsy Ojo and Kieran Low continued to endear themselves to the large Twickenham crowd with Ojo working hard in attack and Low's no nonsense robust carries and stern defence.
Sustained Irish pressure merited a score and they duly received it when Marland Yarde scooted over for his first try of the season. Chris Hala'ufia offloaded the ball beautifully out of the tackle in the lead up to the try.
Chris Ashton crossed for a try on 80 minutes to make the final score London Irish 20 Saracens 42. Irish travel to Worcester next Saturday for round two of the Aviva Premiership.
Score sequence: (London Irish first) 0-3, 0-10, 3-10, 3-13, 3-18, 10-18, 10-21, 10-24, 10-27, 13-27, 13-34, 20-34, 20-37, 20-42

Gary Goodridge Talks About Opening New Gym, Kimbo Slice and A MMA Reality Show

I just dont get it. I just dont get it. Why is there such a fascination with Kimbo slice? Before he fought on tv, he was fighting in backyards infront of BBQs.
He has no cardio. He sucks. Watching him fight is like watching the early days of UFC. I take that back, his fights are worse.

Koch sues Christie's
- Thursday 8 April 2010
The case was filed on 30 March 2010 in the U.S. District Court, in New York.
Koch, who is based in Florida, claims Christie's has sold counterfeit wine for many years.
In the lawsuit, the billionaire alleges Christie's is negligent in failing to ensure that bottles auctioned were genuine, and that it turns a blind eye to suspected wine fraud.
'Because Christie's has inspected so many wine cellars and has examined so many bottles of wine, it knows how to identify counterfeit wine', Koch said.
'Christie's also has unique access to facts and circumstances that might call into question the authenticity of specific wines it handles', he added.
Matthew Paton, a spokesperson for the auction house told decanter.com: 'We take all appropriate steps to establish authenticity, and work with the leading experts, authorities and institutions in the relevant field to research the property that we sell.'
'We believe the allegations in this complaint are without merit and intend to vigorously defend the case'.
Koch has previously sued Zachy's, Acker, Merrall & Condit and German collector and dealer Hardy Rodenstock for fraud.

Mark your calendars as February 12th as an all-new ongoing GHOSTBUSTERS series will hit comic shops!
The Ghostbusters are gone, spirited away by some dastardly demons from another dimension! But spectral shenanigans haven't ceased in the city that never sleeps, meaning a new group will need to step up and don the proton packs.
With creative super-team of Erik Burnham and Dan Schoening (along with series colorist-extraordinaire Luis Antonio Delgado), you won't be disappointed nor believe what happens next. Explains writer Burnham, "We've seen the Ghostbusters deal with a newly minted servant of Gozer, a child-possessing demon, the Spirit of Death, a cross-country road trip and sloppy business rivals, but we've never seen what might happen if something got the jump on them. This story takes a look at what might happen if the Ghostbusters were abducted. The city still needs paranormal exterminators, after all."
What's it like working on such an exciting title as GHOSTBUSTERS you ask? Editor, Tom Waltz, has the answer, "Editing the GHOSTBUSTERS series for IDW has been the highlight of my editorial career. Way back when we started, we prayed we'd be able to finish four issues. And now, sixteen issues in the can and a new ongoing volume ready to rock the world, I'm proud to say GHOSTBUSTERS has proven to be a tremendous success for IDW, and that's completely owed to our awesome fans and the super-powered creative team concocting comic book magic month after month!"

Business runs on IT -- All the time
What do you think is the most important skill in life? I recently asked my co-workers this question, and I heard:
"The ability to focus."
"Communication skills."
"Inspiring others to greatness."
These are wonderful skills, but I don't think they are paramount. For me, the most important skill in life is mastering how to get happy and stay happy. Another way of saying it is, mastering our emotions.
What's so important about mastering our emotions?
When you have mastered your emotions, you can pick and choose how you feel at any given point in time, no matter what else is happening around you. You can choose to be happy, even when "Rome is burning" behind you.
And when you are happy, you can do all those other things that people mentioned, i.e., focus, communicate, lead others to greatness. You are free to do your best and most inspired work.
Getting happy and staying happy is about taking responsibility for your feelings. It's about mastering your emotions, and ultimately, yourself.
The saying, "Own your own actions and set yourself free," has had a profound impact on my life. Except that it's not enough to own your own actions: you also have to own your own feelings in order to have true personal freedom.
One of the reasons it's so hard to get happy and stay happy is that we allow others to "own" our emotions. How many times have you heard: "He made me so mad when he [insert offensive action]," or "She really pissed me off in that meeting!"
When you say, "So-and-so made me mad," you're saying that power lies with the other person. They made you mad. They have the power to control your feelings.
But actually, they didn't and they don't. You chose to get mad. You chose to stay mad. You chose to hold yourself apart from happiness.
We have to take responsibility not only for our actions, but also for our emotions. Many people go through life like Pavlov's dogs, triggered to emotional responses by events that are "outside of their control." If we operate unconsciously based upon our triggers, we'll go through life feeling like a victim, a pinball bouncing back and forth between "external forces."
"I got promoted, yay, I'm happy."
"That jerk Mark threw me under the bus at work, I'm mad."
I did that for many years, until a mentor asked me, "When are you going to finally make the connection between you and all your problems? They all start with YOU."
What are the top ten cause of unhappiness?
1. Low job satisfaction
2. Low sexual satisfaction
3. Partner issues
4. Health issues.
We need to learn to accept things that we can not change.
Becoming happy everyday is next to impossible, since happiness and sadness are part and parcel of the world.
Maryling Yu, It's true what you say that we can choose the kinds of thoughts that we experience on our daily lives, and how it affects our experience. David Foster Wallace masterfully expressed this topic during his Kenyon commencement speech. (This Is Water: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TzFNh2_dSBg) But, Maryling Yu, even the Dali Lama experiences sadness, in such times as the death of a friend, for example; he more than any one else in the world has practiced the art of mastering his emotions, and cultivating happiness and kindness. So exactly who are you to tell people that sadness doesn't need to exist, if even the Dalai lama says that is part of experiencing life? The trick is to experience your emotions, but not ruminate on negative thoughts, but don't be so naive as think you can banish all sadness from your life.
Excellent advice and article. Practice daily NOT TO REACT and, like practicing the piano, one day you will wake up and feel like a new person — you will disarm those who, intentionally or unintentionally, wittingly or unwittingly, push your buttons. It's all about maturing and becoming a friend to the child within.
Excellent article!!! thanks very much! This is an old age wisdom but very important to internalize daily!!!
I was really surprised that you excluded clinical depression from your article. I was clinically depressed for many years. I took medications and went to therapy with psychologists, psychiatrists, social workers and went to group therapy. However, none of that worked. I then had a revealing moment like the one you had when you lost your business. Last year I published a book called "Clinical Depression and The Stalker Within" where I describe how you can overcome depression by taking control of your thoughts and negative feelings. I labeled my negative thoughts the "stalker within." I essentially worked to separate my negative thoughts from my life by giving them a separate identity.
Thus, I disagree with you that your approach does not apply to clinical depression. However, I can understand that many clinically depressed people might have written nasty comments if you had implied that. However, people need to become aware that we can always work with our emotions and take control of them if we choose. There are people with schizophrenia that have managed to remain productive by taking control of their emotions and thoughts as well. Anyone who disagrees should watch the movie "A Beautiful Mind," which is based on a true story about the life and work of John Forbes Nash Jr., a famed economist, who suffered from paranoia and schizophrenia. The bottom line is that if you suffer from major depression or schizophrenia taking medications and going to psychotherapy will definitely help. However, the key to conquering them will depend on whether you can learn to control your emotions and your thoughts.
I have a website called Clinical Depression at www.clinicaldepressionandthestalkerwithin.com where I also write a blog about how to use your thoughts to manage your emotions when you are clinically depressed. I was perplexed as I read your article because it was like I was reading my own blog! I really appreciated your comments. Thank you!

FOX 29, looking out for the safety of your kids with hot weather and swimming pool season soon to arrive.
When FOX 29 came to the Monkiewicz Recreation Center on an unrelated newstip, we noticed a pair of temporary kiddie pools had been set up outside.
They were soft sided, 18 inches tall, full of water, and easily reached from the playground. In addition, they were unattended for much of the time we were there.
Any small child could have fallen in and drowned.
When we pointed out the potential danger to the folks who run a daycamp for young children at the rec center, they quickly emptied the pools.
We alerted the city's recreation commissioner to the situation.
Instructions on the box the pools came in, say clearly that adults are to "closely watch children who are in or near this pool."
The big swimming pool at Monkiewicz has been closed for the past four years.
Plans are in the works to build a spray park at this site, but that's probably two years away.
Have problems? Tell us.
FOX 29 News is #GettingResults.
Thanks for contacting FOX 29 News!

Milk kefir grains are live active cultures consisting of yeast and bacteria existing in a symbiotic relationship. Adding the kefir grains to fresh milk yields a probiotic drink within 24 to 48 hours. This dairy kefir culture is reusable, and with care will allow you to make kefir over and over again.
- Traditional heirloom-style kefir culture (a.k.a. "grains" due to appearance); not a powdered starter culture
- Reusable culture; makes a new batch of kefir every 18 to 48 hours
- With proper care, the culture can be used indefinitely to create delicious probiotic-rich kefir
- Cultures on the counter at 67° to 80°F, no heating appliance required
- Can be used with cow milk, goat milk, soy milk, or coconut milk (see instructions)
Milk kefir grains are a starter culture that can be used with soy or coconut milk if care is taken to occasionally revitalize them in dairy milk. (Complete instructions will be included with each order.) Coconut kefir in particular is quite thick, rich, and delicious. Click here for information on making coconut kefir.
There are numerous uses for kefir including making a type of cream cheese, adding to smoothies, and drinking alone. Kefir can also be flavored after it has cultured and the kefir grains have been removed. Click here for more information on the numerous strains of bacteria and yeast generally known to comprise milk kefir grains.
Ingredients: Organic whole milk, live active cultures. Packaged with a small amount of organic powdered milk to extend shelf life. Click here to see what bacteria and yeasts are in the milk kefir grains.
Milk kefir grains are produced in a facility that also processes soy, wheat, nut, and fish products.
Shipping Information: Our milk kefir grains are shipped in a dehydrated state in a barrier-sealed packet. Upon receipt, the dairy grains can be rehydrated in fresh milk (this process usually takes 5 to 7 days) and then used to make kefir by adding the grains to fresh milk, stirring, covering, and leaving at room temperature until the desired consistency is reached (no more than 48 hours).
Complete instructions are included with each order. Click here to view our milk kefir instructions.
Questions on Milk Kefir Grains
- From Maria at 7/25/14 12:20 PM
- I'm going to be away for the weekend, is it safe to leave my kefir over the counter or should I refrigerate? Thanks.
- Anytime you are not able to give your milk kefir grains fresh milk every 24 hours, you must preserve them in some manner. For short term, you can simply put them in fresh milk in a jar/lid and store them in the fridge. They are safe for up to 3 weeks. If someone is able to give them fresh milk at the end of that 3 week period, you can store them another 3 weeks. After that, they must be put back to work or they will suffer damage and will likely die.
We do not recommend storing them often in the fridge, as this can break down the grains' bacteria and enzymes and cause them to cease working.
- Do you find this question helpful? Yes No
- From Dina at 6/19/14 7:21 AM
- My kefir is curdling after I strain it and put it in the fridge. What am I doing wrong?
- It sounds like your kefir is continuing to culture in the fridge. You may want to check the temperature in your fridge and if you are storing your kefir in the door, move it closer to the back of the fridge where it will remain more cold. If your kefir is separating during the culturing process, you will need to increase the amount of milk you are using or decrease the culturing time to reach that wonderful "thickened-milk" (like buttermilk) stage before storage.
- Do you find this question helpful? Yes No
- From Mary at 6/9/14 4:49 PM
- I live on the southeastern Arizona desert and we do not have central heating/cooling. I don't have a thermometer in my kitchen, but I'm sure it gets over 85 in the summer and sometimes below 65 (we heat with wood) in the winter. Are the milk cultures so temperature dependent that I would not be able to make my own kefir. I tried the water kefir last fall, but I guess it got too cold and my grains died. I love the kefir cheese and really want to make own if it is at all possible.
- Yes, the milk kefir grains must be cultured between 68º-85ºF. If it gets too cold or too warm, they will not be viable. Perhaps looking at the following articles might be helpful in maintaining your temperature during the cold and hot periods of the year:
- Do you find this question helpful? Yes No
- From Bill at 4/17/14 1:00 AM
- Great Site!
Is the protein in milk broken down or digested when being made into Kefir? The casein in milk is really hard to digest and is why many health professionals recommend giving up dairy. Thanks!
- During the culturing process lactose is consumed by the grains. Casein still remains.
- Do you find this question helpful? Yes No
- Great Site!
- From Chris at 4/16/14 3:39 PM
- Is it normally safe to drink the milk used to activate the kefir grains? Also, what must be done to start making kefir with grains that were put in the refrigerator for a break?
- We do not recommend consuming the milk used to rehydrate the kefir grains. Kefir is ready to consume when it is thickened and has a pleasant aroma and taste.
Milk from grains stored in the fridge is generally not pleasant to drink either.
- Do you find this question helpful? Yes No
- Is it normally safe to drink the milk used to activate the kefir grains? Also, what must be done to start making kefir with grains that were put in the refrigerator for a break?
- From Dan at 4/10/14 9:46 AM
- Can I use organic ultra pasteurized 2% milk with the milk kefir grain? And how do I know the kefir grain is activated? Thanks!
- The results with ultra pasteurized milk can be a little unpredictable. Some brands seem to generate better results than others so you might need to experiment to find a brand that works well for you. Yes, you can use 2% milk. The texture is generally a little thinner than whole milk but will still result in a delicious, tangy flavor.
- Do you find this question helpful? Yes No
- From Bernard at 4/9/14 2:25 PM
- Hi, I am here in Texas and will be traveling to Mexico in about a month and a half when I will start to make my Raw Milk Kefir. Will the Milk Kefir Grains that I order last that long or what do you recommend I should do? Can I pay using Pay Pal
or how do I pay? Thank you Bernard.
- Your milk kefir grains should be stored in the refrigerator when you receive them. When at room temperature, the grains are shelf stable for 12-18 months. As long as they are not exposed to temperatures above 85º F, they should be fine. Payment options are listed here: http://www.culturesforhealth.com/ordering-information#Payment_Methods

- Hi, I am here in Texas and will be traveling to Mexico in about a month and a half when I will start to make my Raw Milk Kefir. Will the Milk Kefir Grains that I order last that long or what do you recommend I should do? Can I pay using Pay Pal
- From Brenda at 4/7/14 2:06 PM
- Can I add organic sugar to milk kefir during the culturing process? If so, will this make the final product sweeter?
- When culturing milk kefir, there should be milk and milk kefir grains. If you want to flavor after, that is best. We don't recommend adding sweetener during the culturing process.
- Do you find this question helpful? Yes No
- From Cynthia at 3/12/14 7:23 PM
- What is the sugar/carb content of the kefir?
- The nutritional profile of your finished kefir will depend on many factors. The milk you use is the biggest factor of course.
Temperature, length of culturing and use of a second fermentation will also affect nutrient content.
- Do you find this question helpful? Yes No
- From my kefir grains are getting tiny and most have disappeared at 3/11/14 9:30 AM
- The title says it all. My grains, after a period of flourishing, have grown gradually tiny and their mass has diminished over the last month and now they are almost gone entirely.The only variable I can identify is a change from one brand of whole milk to a another--the brand I changed to has a website that promises that their farmers pledge not to put bovine growth hormones into the feed of their cows and that was why I made the change. Anyway, Why have my grains gone away?
- The most likely cause would be that your grains are not getting enough fresh food. To ensure that your grains are getting enough food, stop the culturing process when the milk thickens to a buttermilk like consistency. If you prefer a more tangy flavor or for your kefir to separate, you can complete a second fermentation on your milk kefir after you've put your grains into a fresh batch of milk. A second fermentation on your finished milk kefir is also a great opportunity to add a little flavoring. This article has helpful hints for encouraging the grains to multiply: http://blog.culturesforhealth.com/three-tips-for-getting-your-milk-kefir-grains-to-grow/ If you have any questions or problems, please be sure to contact customer support at: firstname.lastname@example.com

Price Value Quality
The day I started rehydrating coincided with a really hot weather wave for 2-3 days.The second and the third days the yield I had was a fermented product in a consistency of yoghurt, which tasted extremely good. By increasing the amount of fresh milk as suggested, I started to get fermented kefir in a drink consistency.
After 5-6 days, the little amount of grains I started with began to swell in size, which I hope grows bigger as many others experienced.

I made three 1 cup batches to get the grains going.

The grains are still very small but the milk is turning into kefir very quickly. I am having a hard time drinking all of it but that is a good problem to have.

The Pride's four honorees were the most from any one institution in the country.
Jimmy O'Leary (Reading, Pa.) earned first-team honors, while Angel Perez (Naranjito, Puerto Rico), Luis Vega (Corozal, Puerto Rico), and Nick Ferry (Valencia, Calif.) were named to the second team. Additionally, junior Keaton Pieper (Dallas, Texas) was among those individuals who also received votes.
O'Leary posted 191 kills at a remarkable .497 clip out of the middle for the Pride last season and is coming off his first-ever AVCA Division III All-America Second Team recognition. He also added 100 blocks on the season, ranking 15th in the country in blocks per set with 0.99.
Ferry enters his final season with the Pride anchoring the defense a year removed from ranking in nation's top 25 with a 2.42 digs per game average. Through three years with the Pride, Ferry has recorded the third-most digs in program history with 768, including 249 last season.
Perez returns for his junior season after missing the entire 2013 season with a knee injury. As a freshman, Perez was the AVCA Division III Newcomer of the Year, an AVCA Division III First Team All-American and helped lead Springfield to the inaugural Division III NCAA championship in 2012.
As a freshman last season, Vega finished in the nation's top 25 for attack percentage with a .341 clip and ranked third on the team with 199 kills. The-first year shined at the NCAA Division III Championships, as he combined for 36 kills while hitting .388 to go along with 18 digs and seven aces in three matches to earn Most Outstanding Player recognition.
The 10-member voting committee for these teams was comprised of Division III men's volleyball head coaches from around the nation. Off the Block is a national-award winning website that launched in January 2011 and has become among the nation's leaders in college men's volleyball coverage.
Off the Block has annually presented the men's volleyball Division I-II Preseason All-American Teams since 2011, with this being the first year it expanded to include Division III Preseason All-American Teams.

Obviously, Hurricane Sandy has been dominating the news the past few days, but here are a few other stories of note in the past week from Patch sites across southern Fairfax County:
Moran's Son Resigns From Campaign Following 'Error in Judgment'
Patrick Moran, son of Democratic U.S. Rep. Jim Moran, has resigned from his father's reelection campaign.
"Effective immediately, I have resigned from the Moran for Congress campaign," Patrick Moran said in an email.
The resignation follows the release of a near 27-minute video filmed in various locations in Arlington's Courthouse community in which the younger Moran apparently talks with someone posing as a supporter about skirting new voter identification laws.
The video was released by conservative activist James O'Keefe, whose work has been discredited in the past.
Saturday, Virginia's Attorney General Ken Cuccinelli said he is also investigating the matter.
Former Annandale Massage Parlor Owner Pleads Guilty to Prostitution, Money Laundering
The former owner of an Annandale massage parlor pled guilty Thursday in federal court to charges of prostitution and money laundering, the U.S. Attorney's Office for the Eastern District of Virginia announced.
The former owner, Susan Lee Gross, also known as Ju Mee Lee Gross, 46, is originally from South Korea but now lives in Trinidad, Colo. She could face up to five years in prison for the prostitution charge and up to 20 years for money laundering.
The business, Peach Therapy, is still open in Annandale.
Trial for Tae Kwon Do Instructor Set for January
The trial for Quyen Vinh Phan Le — a 38-year-old Franconia resident — will be held Jan. 14, 2013 at 10 a.m., according to the Fairfax County Circuit Court. Le was indicted of four counts of indecent liberties with a minor by someone in a custodial or supervisory relationship and three counts of possession of child pornography.
Le was a tae kwon do instructor at Burke's Phan University of Martial Arts. Officers said they were contacted by the first victim in June 2011. During the course of their investigation, a second victim was discovered.
Man Holds Up TD Bank on Richmond Highway
Fairfax County Police are investigating a bank robbery that occurred last Thursday around 1:30 p.m. A man entered the TD Bank located at 6615 Richmond Highway and implied he had a weapon, according to a news release from the Mount Vernon Police District.
The suspect then demanded money from a teller who complied and the suspect fled. No one was injured during the incident.
Lorton Girl, 7, Burned by Gasoline Fire, Medevaced to Burn Center
A 7-year-old Lorton girl received life-threatening injuries last week Saturday afternoon when she was burned in a gasoline fire in the garage of her family's home, according to Captain William Moreland of Fairfax County Fire and Rescue.
The emergency call to 911 came at approximately 5 p.m. Saturday, Moreland said. There is an online fundraiser in progress for the girl.
Fairfax County Board of Supervisors Meeting
At this point, the Fairfax County Board of Supervisors is still planning to meet Tuesday, but the weather may change those plans. Visit the county website to view agenda items specific meetings.

It's the latest episode in Sister Wives. But this time it's playing out in the courtroom, not on cable. On Wednesday, the Brown family — the husband, four wives, and 16 children who star in the reality TV show — plans to file a lawsuit in federal court in Utah. The family members say the state's anti-bigamy law is unconstitutional and that Supreme Court precedent backs them up.
When it comes time to put some style into court opinions and legal briefs by plucking a line or two from a songwriter's oeuvre, Bob Dylan's lyrics are by far the No. 1 choice of justices and law clerks around the nation, the Los Angeles Times writes this morning.
Even Chief Justice John Roberts and Justice Antonin Scalia, two men you would not think of in connection with the writer of many of the 1960s' best-known protest songs, have done it.
The First Amendment protects the right of the Westboro Baptist Church to hold anti-gay protests outside military funerals, the Supreme Court ruled Tuesday. The 8-1 ruling backs an appeals court decision to throw out a $5 million victory for Albert Snyder, who sued the fundamentalist church after its members picketed his son's funeral.

One of the two people found dead inside a Jeffersonville home Saturday also set the house on fire, according to Jeffersonville police.
Jeffersonville firefighters found the bodies of Morgan J. Julius, 26, and Courtney R. Grimm, 27, in the bathroom of the residence at 3001 Starview Court in Jeffersonville at about 2 p.m. Saturday. While crews were called to the scene because of the fire, the cause of death for both individuals was gunshot wounds, according to the Clark County Coroner's office.
Jeffersonville Police Detective Todd Hollis said the positioning of the bodies and evidence of accelerants in the home's bathroom has ruled out the possibility of a third person setting fire to the home. Police continue to investigate the incident.
"Firefighters had to force open the door to the interior room," Hollis said. "No one could have exited the room."
He said two handguns were also found in the bathroom. Ballistics tests will have to be performed to determine which of the guns had been fired before emergency responders entered the home and retrieved the bodies, Hollis said.
Julius is the son of Jeffersonville City Councilman Dennis Julius, who has also announced his candidacy for the 2015 Jeffersonville mayoral election. Calls to the Julius family were not returned as of press time, but Dennis Julius did post a comment on Facebook.
"I would like to thank all of the Jeffersonville fire and police for their compassion and professionalism in our family's hour of need, as well as all so many friends for their love, thoughts and prayers," signed by Dennis, Vicki and family.
Suzanne Julius, who has since remarried, is Morgan's mother.
Hollis said Julius and Grimm were the only occupants of the home and that they had been a couple for eight to 10 months.
He said numerous calls were received by authorities of the house fire, but the first call to 911 was received from a neighbor who said it was too hot for him to enter the home.
Funeral services for Morgan Julius will be held at 11 a.m. Wednesday, Nov. 13, at St. Augustine Catholic Church. Visitation will be held from 3 to 8 p.m. Tuesday, Nov. 12, at the church.
Expressions of sympathy may be made to Clark County Humane Society and online condolences may be made at cootsfuneralhome.com
Funeral services for Courtney Grimm will be held at 11 a.m., Thursday, Nov. 14, at Scott Funeral Home. Visitation will be held from 4 to 8 p.m. Wednesday, Nov. 13 and after 9 a.m. on Thursday at the funeral home.
Memorial contributions can be made to Ovarian Cancer Research. Envelopes will be available at the funeral home. Condolences for the family can be made at www.scottfuneralhome.com.

MADRID (MarketWatch) -- A 16-month inquiry into U.K. press practices ended on Thursday with a call for the industry to appoint an independent regulatory body that's backed up by the law. Led by British Judge Brian Henry Leveson who announced the findings in a nearly 2,000 page report, the inquiry was prompted by the News of the World phone hacking scandal from July 2011. The News of the World newspaper was shut down by its owner News Corp. in 2011. MarketWatch, publisher of this report, is also owned by News Corp. /quotes/zigman/18008449/delayed/quotes/nls/nwsa NWSA +0.28% /quotes/zigman/17601546/delayed AU:NWS -0.70% . Leveson said that while the British press "serves the country very well for the vast majority of the time," he said there was a failure of management systems and compliance at the News of the World. Leveson also warned against "self-serving cosiness" between the press and the police and said the press and politicians had also, in some cases, developed a too-close relationship.

Memphis Woman Wins $100,000 Lottery Prize
A stop for a Powerball ticket led one Memphis woman to a $100,000 prize. Catherine Brown, 51, didn't win the Powerball jackpot, but she did win a top prize on a Missouri Lottery "10X The Money" Scratchers ticket that she purchased at Casey's General Store, 110 N. Clay St. in Memphis.
Brown, a server at Catfish Place in Arbela, said she found out she was a winner at her home when she scratched off her winning ticket. She immediately called her fiancé to share the news, but added, "I don't think he believed me at first."
Brown had to leave for work, so she put the ticket in a safe place until she was able to claim it at a Lottery office.
"I gave it (ticket) to a good friend, and she locked it in her lock box," she said.
The first-time Lottery winner plans to put her winnings into a retirement fund.
"10X The Money," a $5 game with a top prize of $100,000, offers players the chance to win 20 times on a single ticket. The game has five top prizes and thousands of $5 to $20,000 prizes remaining in play.

Dr. Victoria Rogers to Receive the Gold Foundation Humanism in Medicine Award
August 8, 2011
Congratulations to Victoria Rogers, MD, FAAP, who has been selected to receive the 2011 Arnold P. Gold Foundation Humanism in Medicine Award. This award is presented annually in collaboration with the Council of Medical Specialty Societies to honor a medical school faculty physician who exemplifies the qualities of a caring and compassionate mentor in the teaching and advising of medical students. In order to be selected, nominees must demonstrate positive mentoring skills, involvement in community service, compassion and sensitivity, collaboration with students and patients, and model ethics of the profession. The goal of the award is to emphasize, reinforce, and enhance the importance of humanistic qualities among medical school students and faculty.
Dr. Rogers will be presented with the award on October 14, 2011, at the Pediatrics for the 21st Century: Ending Obesity Within a Generation—Innovations in Practice symposium hosted by the American Academy of Pediatrics in Boston.
As a leader in the field of childhood obesity prevention and management, she is often called upon as a consultant by NICHQ, the AAP, and other national organizations to provide her expert opinion and review. As the Director of the Kids CO-OP at The Barbara Bush Children's Hospital at Maine Medical Center, Dr. Rogers oversees the development, coordination, and promotion of community-oriented, pediatric healthcare initiatives.
Her work on the Maine Youth Overweight Collaborative (MYOC) and the 5-2-1-0 Goes to School program has resulted in two articles in the NICHQ Childhood Obesity Action Network (COAN) supplement to Pediatrics on strategies to address childhood obesity. She was the co-lead on a 2000 AAP Healthy People 2010 chapter grant that focused on obesity, and is the current lead on a 2010 AAP Healthy Active Living chapter grant that focuses on age-appropriate beverage recommendations for children 0-5 years old. She has authored resources on care coordination for the AAP, Alliance for a Healthier Generation, and the ADA.
Dr. Rogers is also an expert in quality improvement, and in 2003 she received the AAP's Quality Care Award for implementing the AH! Asthma Health Program at Maine Medical Center. By taking a "systems approach" that utilized all clinic staff—from the phone operator to the physician—in the care, training and follow-up of asthma patients, she was able to lead a group of physicians concerned about the health of asthma patients in developing new and better ways to manage asthma care. These new procedures resulted in decreased hospital stays, fewer emergency room visits, and fewer missed days of school and work for children with asthma and their parents. The AH! Asthma Health Program is now offered in clinics throughout Portland and Maine, and the program's asthma management forms were adopted by the state of Maine for use by health care providers.
Dr. Rogers is a member of NICHQ's Obesity National Advisory Council where she provides expert recommendations and key guidance to NICHQ's obesity work. She was also the faculty chair for NICHQ's Healthy Care for Healthy Kids Learning Collaborative, co-chair of the Childhood Obesity Action Network (COAN) faculty, and has also served as a content expert for a number of NICHQ's other obesity-related projects. She has led the development of a "next steps" implementation guide for clinicians based on the expert panel recommendations on childhood obesity prevention and management. She is currently a faculty member and advisor for NICHQ's Be Our Voice childhood obesity advocacy project and a member of the Collaborate for Healthy Weight Consortium.

The Tonawanda News
Tonawanda News — It's been three years since Marine Cpl. Paul Schaus was severely injured during a battle in Afghanistan and it will be another few months before he's finally at home.
Schaus lost both his legs and a finger when he stepped on a landmine in the middle of a conflict with insurgents. That was in June of 2009, on his second deployment, when he twice went into cardiac arrest before a harrowing rush to resusitate him.
He then spent years in recovery, first in Germany, and then at two different medical centers in the United States, where he received treament and underwent rigorous therapy.
Now he's ready to come back to Western New York, where he grew up. And this weekend dozens of volunteers have joined in with memebers of Homes For Troops, an organization that has constructed 112 new-builds for injured veterans across the nation.
Much of the land for Schaus' house-to-be, which will be located on Sherwood Avenue and Wall Street, was donated by an NT resident, while a parcel of city-owned property was also chipped in free of charge.
The city assessor was approached last year by Homes For Troops, which led to a search for a viable spot. When finished, Schaus, who now has two prosthetic legs and walks with a cane, will have a 2,600-square-foot ranch-style home, a garage and patio and handicapped accessibility.
Schaus was able to choose from among three ideal locations to live in the region, North Tonawanda being one of them.
The foundation is already in place and the first walls were raised Friday morning. Much of the base of the home will be complete by the end of the week, while crews will finish the remainder of the structure's interior in the next three to four months.
"What's occurring this weekend is the completion of a weather-tight shell, so what we'll have is the exteriors, siding, roof windows and doors," said Jennifer Fiorentino, a spokesperson for Homes for Troops.
The organization is a privately funded not-for-profit that raises money and construction materials, organizes volunteers and builds homes that are suitable for those with life-altering disabilities. It was founded in 2004.
Fiorentino said in addition to the more than 100 homes that have already been finished, she expects another 20 will be completed by the end of the year. She added Schaus received $63,780 through a U.S. Department of Vetaran's Affairs grant.
"What we generally do is go out and search for land in a particular area," Fiorentino said. "We ask the vet to give us a radius of where they want to live. In this case it was North Tonawanda, where I have to say, there's been an outpouring of support."
A ceremony will take place in the fall, when Schaus will be given the key to his new home.Contact reporter Michael Regan at 693-1000, ext. 4115.
