The 2013 edition of BCBCS. What else I can say that thousands of BA users already haven't. The quintessential bourbon barrel aged coffee stout. An amazing BBA stout brewed with an awesome coffee could only yield a beer such as this. To put it in layman's terms: COFFEE BOMB

Popped a bottle of 2013 for my first bourbon county coffee stout experience ever. This beer left me speechless because it was so delicious. I tried this beer right after I had a Kbs and I thought this was so much more balanced and was more flavorful as well.

A: Dark brown to black body with a khaki head that stands quite well for a second or two, then pops out of sight almost instantly. No lacing.
S: It has a very wonderful aroma. Bourbon, oak, coffee, cocao, and a promise of wonderful flavors. It's fantastic.
T: It has a nice well-balanced flavor of bourbon and spiced wood along with rich malty chocolate flavor and coffee. It's amazing. There's few words I could use to describe this beer without talking in circles. It's something a person would have to experience. There is a hint of alcohol that looms in the rafters, but it's so far in the background that it does no harm to the flavor. The aftertaste is exactly what you'd get out of a cup o' Joe. It is very lovely.
M: It has a nearly perfect mouthfeel. The body is nice and full, smooth, robust without being a hindrance. The only downfall I notice is the severe lack of carbonation.
O: Overall it is a quite wonderful beer that lacks only in the carbonation. I would gladly buy this beer again, and would happily recommend it to others. There's precious little to be said about perfection, but this does quite well in embodying it. Bourbon lovers, stout enthusiasts, and coffee scrutineers will all be proud to have a bottle of this close by.

12 oz. bottle poured into a Burley Oak snifter (11/15/13 1949)
A: Pitch black with no head, collar or anything outside of the liquid. Slight mocha head on a vigorous pour of what I had left., left an ok collar. Dissipated right away.
S: Sweet malts with a a nice earthy coffee flavor, like freshly ground coffee beans. Just a bit of bourbon mingling around the edges.
T: The last time I had BCBS was on Black Friday, but this is just like I remember with just some slight changes. Bourbon on the backend with just a slight bit of a burn. Very warming. I let it warm up quite a bit. The coffee is primarily on the backend and dulls the bourbon a bit, just soaks it up. Coffee just does a good job in balancing this out a bit, at least with fresh BCS.
M: Smooth for the most part with just a few rough patches of coarse bubbles/carbonation. However, it does seem to have close to the same body of a good bourbon, it feels like you mixed some with it. Like it is oily almost.
O: I only got two other bottles, so I will either save them or bring them to bottleshares. It is just too much bourbon for me.

A: Dark black, thick pour. Very little caramel colored, frothy head that dissipated quickly. Sticky / syrupy lacing clings to the glass.
S: Wow. Big time coffee (no surprise there), lots of toffee and oak followed by a little vanilla and dark fruit. Get a hint of the alcohol presence on the nose as well. Very nice.
T: Huge coffee/espresso right off the bat followed up by a vanilla / toffee sweetness. The oaky, bourbon flavors come in at the end with a slight boozy warmth. Awesome.
M: Thick, almost syrupy. Sticky quality that allows some of the warmth and sweetness to linger on the palate.
O: Crazy good. So thankful I was able to try this truly awesome beer. The coffee and bourbon flavors perfectly complement one another. Incredibly smooth and enjoyable. You will have a smile on your face after every sip.

Bourbon County Brand Coffee Stout
Imperial Stout
APPEARANCE: Poured a midnight deep black. Very little faint toffee colored head that dissipated almost instantly leaving the smallest lace.
AROMA: Holy Cracker Jack's, I literally just checked the bottle for my prize. The nose on this is epic, toffee, vanilla, fresh ground coffee, oak. Wow. Hints of over ripe deep dark berries. Some chocolate and a faint spiciness.
TASTE: Right away expresso, roasted, toasted and nutty. Nice sweet malts, chocolate the ripe berries I got in the nose. Toffee, molasses and then the barrel flavor joins the party. Oak, vanilla, hint of cinnamon. Kinda happy I didn't get the spiciness I grabbed in the nose.
MOUTHFEEL: Very rich, slick and oily. Heavy bodied with very light carbonation. Finished with a nice booziness.
OVERALL: Amazing beer, intense and delicious. Felt it was super balanced and didn't let the coffee over power the other layers. Personally I put this right under Backyard Rye in the bcs lineup so far.
RATING: 4.9/5 Zombie Heads!

Poured from a 12oz bottle into snifter.
2013 Vintage; thanks to UncleJazz for the bottle!
This beers pours darker'n a black steer's tookus on a moonless prairie night with a short dark mocha head that dissipates quickly leaving minimal lacing. The nose is strong and mouthwatering and is dominated both by rich malt and boozy bourbon with notes of chocolate, espresso, vanilla, toffee and nutty oak. On the palate is big bourbon and malty toffee/caramel sweetness, dark chocolate and loads of coffee/espresso. The mouthfeel is very round, smooth, velvety and huge on the palate. I didn't know what to expect and have been dissapointed by coffee stouts in the past, but this one is just fantastic.

I poured this one (bottled Nov. 2013) into a Bourbon County snifter. It's dark with the thinnest of heads. A bit foamy at first, but the head is gone, never to be seen again, after about 5 minutes. Looks oily and viscous. The nose is incredible: roasted espresso beans that have been soaked in bourbon. Heavy amounts of roast, espresso, and sweet bourbon vanilla. My god. Taste follows the nose, then hammers it out of the park: equal parts iced espresso and bourbon. Both flavors are there, and neither overpowers the other: complementary. Am I drinking a bourbon-spiked espresso, or a bourbon with a shot of espresso in it? It's both of those things, and something else entirely. The booze is definitely there, warming me up but not knocking me out. Lovely vanilla marshmallows round out each sip. Mouthfeel is thick, viscous, and smooth. So luscious and decadent. Simply astonishing: the balance between the roast coffee, the heavy bourbon, and the luscious mouthfeel is out of this world. The finest beer I've ever had. I've got one BCBCS left, and I'll be enjoying it on my wedding night. It's that kind of beer. Cheers!

Dark as night and impenetrable to light. Brussels lacing. Not much to speak of in the way of head. A minimal amount of dark khaki colored foam is barely present. I've had Founders Breakfast Stout but this coffee aroma is so strong it nearly has a physical presence. The body is thick and sticky and carries a certain weight to it. The front of the palate is brutally intense coffee and deep dark malt.

A: Opaque used motor oil.
S: Dark roast coffee, raisins, something almost like chili peppers in heat and the scent of vegetation; bourbon booze.
T: Espresso with sugar and rubbing alcohol heat.
M: Thick, syrupy, and hot.
O: I'm really glad I was able to try this. It's rich, it's dense, it's over the top, it's full of coffee, and I love coffee (especially Intelligentsia), far more than beer if I had to choose. But it's not as amazing as I'd hoped. Sure, the Bourbon County line sets a new bar; they're the most extreme barrel aged stouts. But perhaps they're not the best, the most nuanced, or the most complex.

This smells great. Wood, chocolate, coffee, alcohol, cinnamon, tobacco, maybe fig or something like that, and some other good stuff I can't pinpoint. Tastes something like a oaky, coffee, less-sweet port wine or something. I'm getting frustrated that I can't pick out all the scents and flavors, but it's pretty damned good. It'll probably come to me later. I'll finish here and continue to sip.

I don't remember where I picked this one up. 12 oz. bottle with a Bottled On date of 11/15/13. I poured this into a snifter.
At first, BCBCS pours with a substantial deep tan head that lasts for a short while, crackling away audibly until it disappears almost completely. No lacing here...just a black tar pit with a single floating island of micro-bubbles. This is a black beer, with no hint of light passing through any part of the liquid. Deep and ominous.
The aroma is a beautiful and almost perfect mixture of bourbon barrels and coffee. It is a strong bouquet that shows off many qualities, including sweet vanilla, charred oak, fresh brewed coffee, alcohol soaked cherries, leather, spice, and bourbon obviously.
What is so impressive about BCBCS (and indeed, all the Bourbon County beer varieties) is the complete smooth barrel-aged quality that reduces the intense alcohol to nothing more than a slight warmth in the finish. The flavor up front is packed with heavily roasted malts, coffee, and oak barrels. Across the palate, you will pick up more of the booze, with an alcoholic note hitting the roof of the mouth. It finishes with a lingering bitterness/acrid roast that helps to create a sense of balance against the sweet, sticky body of this imperial stout. The aftertaste bring out more of the toasted oak and vanilla flavors, with some bourbon heat accompanying that taste. The body is perfect: it's full, smooth, rich, velvety, and with a perfect amount of carbonation to carry this goliath beer across the tongue and make it feel not so heavy and oily. I believe that is why a beer like this has taken the place of Dark Lord in the ratings....
A well-balanced beer can exist in any style, and here we have a well-balanced massive imperial stout brewed with coffee beans and aged in bourbon barrels. Very tough to beat this experience. Really a well crafted beer and exremely drinkable for a beer that exceeds 12% abv. Best beer in the world? Mmmm...getting closer.

Served from a 12oz bottle into a dogfish head tulip glass.
Poured thick and dark with barely any head.
A midnight black color doesn't let the light through. The smattering of head is light chocolate color that dissipates quickly.
Smells of coffee and chocolate.
Tastes of chocolate and coffee with strong notes of bourbon and vanilla. Subtle hints of oak with a little char. The sweet of the chocolate and oak play nicely with bitter of the coffee and warmth of the bourbon.
Slightly slurpy on the tongue, with very light carbonation in the mouth. It has a slight alcohol bite that fades quickly.
The flavors in the beer come together superbly. It is a layered, immensely enjoyable experience.

12 oz bottle. I'd just missed this beer so many times that I couldn't contain myself when I got it. Anyway, this pours a pitch black color, barely any head or carbonation. The smell is strong with chocolate, coffee, and a good amount of booze. The taste brings all of the flavors together - starts with coffee and chocolate and finishes with vanilla and oak. No flavor really dominates, which makes this really smooth and drinkable. Overall, this is one of my favorite beers ever. It's a truly magnificent creation

2100th review! 12 ounce bottle into snifter, bottled on 11/15/2013. Pours dense pitch black color with a small fairly dense dark tan head with decent retention, that reduces to a ring of lace that lingers. Minimal lacing on the glass. Aromas of huge dark chocolate, roasted coffee, cocoa, roasted malt, caramel, toast, vanilla, toffee, bourbon, oak, clove, light char, and roast/oak earthiness. Incredible aromas with fantastic balance and complexity of dark/roasted malt, coffee, and bourbon barrel notes; with great strength. Taste of huge dark chocolate, roasted coffee, cocoa, toast, roasted malt, caramel, vanilla, toffee, oak, clove, bourbon, light char, and roast/oak earthiness. Lingering notes of dark chocolate, coffee, cocoa, toast, roasted malt, caramel, vanilla, toffee, oak, clove, bourbon, and roasted earthiness on the finish for a while. Fantastic complexity of dark/roasted malt, coffee, and bourbon barrel flavors; with a great malt/barrel flavor balance and zero cloying flavors after the finish. Light-medium carbonation and full bodied; with a very creamy and slick mouthfeel that is nice. Alcohol is very well hidden with only a slight warming present after the finish. Overall this is a fantastic BA imperial coffee stout. All around awesome complexity and balance of dark/roasted malt, coffee, and bourbon barrel flavors; and very smooth to sip on for the big ABV. A highly enjoyable offering.

Poured a 12 oz bottle, 2013 vintage, into a mason jar. Was motor oil black, with no transparency even around the edges and almost no head to speak of except a tiny lacing of dark brown bubbles. The smell is dominated by bourbon, maple, and raisins, with little to no coffee aroma present. The taste was sweeter than I expected, with heavy raisin and maple flavor and a good slow bourbon spice on the finish. The alcohol was less pronounced than you might expect for a 13%+ ABV, but I did notice a little heat especially as it warmed up. The mouthfeel was a bit thinner than many coffee stouts, but it did leave a its mark. Overall this was a strong beer, one that grew on me as I drank it. Perhaps it didn't live up to my memory of the original BCBS, but still a very tasty beer and very easy to drink.

People need to relax with this beer.. This beer is not rank #2. Bourbon beers are strong.. Great to have with a steak.. But most of the Bourbon beers taste the same.. I'm not hating on this beer.. It's probably the best Bourbon beer I had.. But I'm an IPA, Double IPA, Double Pilsner type of guy.. Again great beer BUT come on.. These Bourbon Beers are close to hard liquor..NOT really a beer to me

Quickly becoming one of my favorite beers. It starts off with a great aroma and appearance when pouring. The coffee flavors really come out on the palate but aren't overwhelming. Unlike other brews in the similar ABV range, it wasn't at all boozy or too strong. In fact you could get into trouble quick because it doesn't have the familiar bite that many +10% beers have.
It had a great mouthfeel to it. Not too thick and creamy and definitely not watery like a cheap beer. The finish is nice and strong with flavor and aroma.
Cannot wait for next year's release.

a: mostly jet black, colloid, haziness. No head but a small amount of foam sticking around the edges. Fairly large alcohol legs.
s: big coffee notes. Smells like Speedway or Peche mortel. Small light berry and fusel notes from the barrel and alcohol. some sugary almond cookie as well. Very nice but not too strong.
t: Oh yes, big roasty, nutty, almond flavors swimming around. The barrel isn't that in-your-face that you get from the normal Bourbon County stout but rather well integrated. The coffee lends almost an exotic, dark, roasted berry flavor. Some sips lend more sugary, alcohol burns than others.
mf: Medium bodied, medium carbonation.
overall: Nothing new here, though the flavors hit me so well, the coffee and alcohol is starting to become a little cloying. I can understand why this is so damn good, but beers like Mikkeller Beer Geek Weasel are just as good.

A. Opaque. Thick oil. No head by the time it got to me. No lacing.

M. Thick sweet boozy oil. In a good way.
O. Lovely really, but I don't think the coffee version should age. I like my coffee beers to taste like coffee.

22oz bomber bottle with a simple maroon label with "Bourbon County" in big bold white letters. Directly below that in small gold letters in a black box is the infamous words "Brand Coffee Stout." At the bottom is where it tells you what kind of coffee it was brewed with. It was brewed with Intelligentsia coffee beans. On the far left edge of the label is the Govt warning and to the far right is a brief description of the beer and a bottled date. There's also a yearly bottled date on the front as well. This bomber bottle is a 2012 vintage.
When poured into a CCB Teku, this Coffee Stout poured a dark coffee black that was poured into a pitch black mug. Highlights? This beer is far too dark for cheap highlights. Wow! A beer brewed with coffee that was coffee black in color. No surprise there. The head of foam was lackluster, but that's expected from a beer this beer with age on it. Minimal skim of tan foam that quickly disappeared when I laid eyes on it. There was a faint string of rings along the side to say that a head of foam did exist on this beer. A head of foam would have been nice, but my eyes still enjoyed looking at this beer.
This beer is over a year old and age has yet to settle down the rich aroma of roasted coffee beans in this beer. Following the rich dark aroma of roasted coffee was a quick whiff of dark roasted malt, dark chocolate, and black cherry. After the aroma got those out of the way, in comes the beer's wall of sweetness. This is where my nose stumbled upon an aroma that was just as thick as the coffee presence. This sweetness wall consisted of a nice molasses almost caramel like taste. Rounding off the aroma was bourbon, oak, and a splash of vanilla. My nose enjoyed this beer more than my eyes did.
The taste was similar to the aroma, but it still wasn't there. Up front was a thick and roasted taste of quality coffee beans. This taste of coffee lingered on for quite a long time before it let through roasted malt, dark chocolate, and black cherry. Directly after the black cherry passed, in comes a big combined taste that featured molasses, oak, bourbon, and a subtle drop of vanilla. While the aroma broke those elements down, the taste just put them into one big taste bomb. As the taste warms up, the vanilla and oak comes out more, but they're still not as big as the initial roasted coffee taste.
This a thick, chewy, roasted beer that was low in carbonation but certainly not low in flavor or character. I sure hope you like the taste of coffee because you'll find more of it in the aftertaste. Behind the coffee was chocolate, malt, bourbon, and a little oak.
Even though this is still a kick ass beer that's held up for over a year, I recently had one fresh and thought it was better than this. Would I still drink a vintage bottle? If given the opportunity again, I would!

What sometimes happen is the guide description doesn't have the right data, and your DVR thinks it is a new show. Did you look at the show and see what it had listed as the Air Date?
Yes, the air date shown is from when it originally aired ( not the current date).

Very once and awhile my Hr24 will record shows that I have set up for series recordings will record old shows even though I have selected the "first run" option in series manager.
Anyway to fix this?
You'll see this if the guide data has "no information available". I see this all the time with shows like South Park, Robot Chicken, Deadliest Catch, etc. I'll look at my series manager and see, for example, 21 episodes of Robot Chicken are set to record. As the days go by those drop off because "no information available" is actually changed to the actual information. If "no information available" isn't replaced with real guide data before the showing it gets recorded.
Posted 29 July 2012 - 11:57 AM
Unfortunately, the OAD is not what is used to determine if something is first run or not. This issue is usually seen when the description for a show's episode is a generic description or has no information at all.

What is a "OAD" ?

If you're concerned about guide data reboot twice within a 30 minute period. The easiest way is to reboot, wait to get back to live tv and then immediately reboot again. This flushes all guide data on the unit. New guide data, including posters, cast/crew, etc, will take up to 48 hours to re-acquire.

What is a "OAD" ?

This is especially annoying with TV shows from other countries. Sometimes the show airs first in another country before it airs in the US. Tribune sometimes uses the original air date in the other country in the guide data. That really doesn't matter though as long as they set the first run flag correctly, but sadly they don't do that sometimes. For example I think it was either Holmes on Holmes, or Holmes Inspection that was particularly bad about this. The shows originally aired in Canada a while back but just started airing on HGTV. Tribune would often put the original Canadian air date as the OAD, but then play around with the first run settings. Sometimes the shows would correctly be set as first run since they had never been aired on TV in the US before, but other times they wouldn't set the first run flag and the episode would be skipped. It was really frustrating and people had to just set the DVRs to record both old and new episodes to be sure they got everything.

Bridal Flowers Exclusive- The Best ! ! ! – Bridal Flower Divas did my wedding flowers for May 2010. Everything turned out beautiful. While planning, Rachel got back to me always within a day or less, my last minute changes were no trouble, and we didn't pay as much as I thought for 11 bouquets, 14 boutonnieres, 18 centerpieces, etc. which fully consisted of calla lillies and orchids. The girls worked really hard on the day to make my vision for my flowers a reality. Everyone loved the centerpieces and Rachel got me a really good deal on the vases, all of which I bought to give away for Mother's Day. I highly recomment Bridal Flower Divas for their work, the prices, and for the professionalism. Thanks again girls.
Calm and Relaxed...That's how every event should feel... – Beautiful and professional. The contract was meticulously detailed. If that wasn't enough the feeling that everyone wants (positive planning) was felt in leaps and bounds.
Thank you so much for making my cousin's day special.
Amazing Flowers & Amazing Vendor – Loved working with Rachel & her team. With approx. 20 vendors for a 1500 wedding the flowers had to be just right for my couple. Bridal Exclusives did not disappoint if anything her team felt like my team they were great to work with and I look forward to working with them again for all of the weddings I design and produce!
Wonderful Experience! – It was such a pleasure working with Rachel and her entire team! They helped make this part of the wedding a dream and they made my vision, which I was not too clear on at first, bloom and come to life. Rachel had the perfect suggestions and even if there was something that didn't fit, we came to another solution together. Everyone commented on how beautiful and fresh the flowers were. The flowers made the ceremony, cocktail and reception come to life! It amazed me how affordable everything was! Towards the end there were a lot of changes but it didn't affect the price as much as I thought and that was great. Rachel will give suggestions on what is beautiful AND affordable. She knows what she is doing. I would recommend Bridal Flowers Exclusive to everyone!
Amazing to work with – I was very very pleased with Bridal Flowers Exclusive. They have far surpassed my expectations. They were great to work with. My Flowers were beautiful, they were on time and true professionals. Wonderful company to work with.
Beyond Beautiful!! FAR surpassed my expectations!! – Bridal Flowers Exclusive was one of the best decisions I made in my wedding planning process, (besides of course my now husband).
The intimate feel and personable team were so helpful every step of the way. I thought for sure this was going to be a stressful process but it was the opposite. Working with these skilled and friendly ladies was such a pleasure. I would, and will recommend Bridal Flowers Exclusive's services to anyone I know planning a wedding.

We're all no doubt aware of the numerous apps available on Google Play that assist in the backup and restore of apps and data. They are a vital tool in the Android ROM flasher's toolkit. XDA Senior Member wizwin has come up with an alternative, but somewhat more unique method of backup up apps and data. AndSync is a Perl script used to backup your apps and data to your computer, and then restore them back when required.
Instead of performing the backups from your device as is usually the case, this method is all performed from your computer. All that's required on your computer is Android SDK (for ADB shell) and Perl v5.10.1. Both Windows and Unix based systems are supported. If the Operating System supports Perl then this will work for you.
The script let's you do the following:
Data backup and restore is available only for rooted devices and non-rooted devices running ICS or above. Froyo isn't currently supported.
If you want to try backing up apps to your computer, head over to wizwin's thread._________

If you like apple pancakes and you like bacon, you'll love the taste of these sweet, smoky pancakes. Any kind of apple works well. A quick cider syrup drizzled on top enhances the apple flavor.
This pizza, topped with bacon, eggs and asparagus, was inspired by a wood-fired-oven pizza served at the Montpelier, Vermont, farmers' market. Serve with: Mixed green salad.
Pears and delicata squash tossed with brown sugar, chili powder and bacon is a delectable combination. To make this vegetarian, omit the bacon and toss the squash and pears with the brown sugar and chili powder during the last 5 minutes of roasting.
This updated take on German potato salad is a sophisticated addition to any holiday spread. Granny Smith apples are a good choice, as they hold their shape when roasted.
Chicken thighs can take plenty of cooking without getting tough or drying out, which makes them perfect for the slow cooker. Here we braise them in Guinness stout along with hearty vegetables, with just the right amount of bacon for added savoriness.
Garlicky mushrooms spiked with bacon make a lovely garnish for halibut and polenta. We can't decide what we like best about this dish: the flavors, healthfulness, ease or the fact that there is so little cleanup! Serve with steamed green beans tossed with olive oil, whole-grain mustard and a squeeze of lemon.
The bacon, blue cheese and avocado in this egg salad make it decadent. Serve it open-face on a piece of toasted whole-grain bread.
Bacon is a healthy ingredient when it's used as a flavoring in chicken dishes, side dishes, pasta dishes and more dinner recipes. When developing recipes in the EatingWell Test Kitchen, we use bacon sparingly to add flavor to recipes without greatly increasing the saturated fat content. (One medium strip of bacon has 43 calories and 1.1 grams of saturated fat.) For a healthier, flavor-packed recipe, try one of our healthy bacon recipes today, including salad recipes with bacon, side-dish recipes with bacon, chicken and bacon recipes, and bacon and egg recipes.

Photoelectric sensors for hygenic, washdown environments
The QM26 and QMH26 photoelectric sensors by Banner Engineering are designed for chemically cleaned envrionments and are built to be as germ-free as possible for the pharmaceutical industry as well as food and beverages.
Banner Engineering's QM26 and QMH26 photoelectric sensors, designed specifically for food and beverage and pharmaceutical industries. The sensors were influenced by the 2011 Food Safety Modernization Act (FSMA), the European Hygienic Engineering and Design Group (EHEDG) and food safety initiatives among private businesses.
The QM26 is housed in a non-toxic 316L stainless steel housing, and can survive high pressure washdowns and temperature cycling, ranging from -30 C to 60 C. The sensor is Ecolab certified for inexhaustible sensor life in chemically cleaned environments and is intended for splash zone areas. The QM26 also features side-mounting for quick set-up and installation.
The QMH26 is designed with minimal grooves and crevices, leaving no room for bacteria to hide and multiply. It is self-draining for clean-in-place (CIP) applications. The sensor's hygienic mounting shape reduces contamination risk, making it a suitable sensor to place in contact zones.

Google introduced a coding plug-in for Web site developers that instructs Microsoft Internet Explorer browsers to use Google Chrome technologies.
The plug-in, called "Google Chrome Frame," was announced on Tuesday and is still at the early release stage, according to a Google blog. The blog features a video suggesting that IE 8 will pass the Acid3 test while using Google Chrome Frame. It also suggests that developers will see better support for rich Internet applications by using the plug-in.
The switch is triggered by adding a single tag to a Web site's HTML markup. It tells IE to use the open source WebKit Web content engine favored by the Google Chrome browser rather than Microsoft's IE Trident layout engine.
Web developers can take advantage of upcoming HTML 5 technologies and "recent JavaScript performance improvements" by using Google Chrome Frame, according to Google's blog. However, HTML 5 is still at the draft stage. W3C documentation points to a release milestone for the HTML 5 recommendation sometime in 2009 to 2010. A Google spokesperson said that final changes to the HTML 5 spec might happen in October or November, but "it's still a long process after that."
HTML 5 will have offline capabilities allowing calendar or e-mail applications to sync, as well as audio and video tags that don't depend on the browser using Adobe Flash or Microsoft Silverlight, the Google spokesperson noted.
A spokesperson for Microsoft explained in a released statement that "HTML5 is still a standard in progress and the makers of it say it will be years at least before it's done, so no one can standardize on it." The spokesperson added that all browsers support parts of HTML 5. Internet Explorer supports the following features in the current spec:
The statement provided by Microsoft suggested that there could be security repercussions to using Google Chrome Frame.
"Given the security issues with plug-ins in general and Google Chrome in particular, Google Chrome Frame running as a plug-in has doubled the attack area for malware and malicious scripts," the statement explained. "This is not a risk we would recommend our friends and families take."
Microsoft referred people to studies by NSS Labs, funded by Microsoft, on the protections afforded by browsers against phishing attacks and malware. Those studies found IE 8 to be one of the safest browsers.
A statement from Google took a different view on the alleged security risks of its browser and plug-in.
"While we encourage users to use a more modern and standards compliant browser such as Firefox, Safari, Opera or Google Chrome rather than a plug-in, for those who don't, Google Chrome Frame is designed to provide better performance, strong security features, and more choice to both developers and users, across all versions of Internet Explorer."
Google's statement cited protections against malware and phishing, as well as its sandbox security technology, plus frequent browser updates to meet emerging online threats.
A Microsoft blog accused Google of messy coding practices with Google Chrome Frame. Felix Wang, a Microsoft Web evangelist, indicated that the use of Google Chrome Frame interfered with IE 8. It also mangled a Windows registry setting, he explained.
"If any googler wants to investigate, just drop me a line and I'm happy to provide MPS report or other troubleshooting data for diagnostics," Wang wrote.
The Google spokesperson said in a phone call that Google is currently working on a bug fix to the problem described by Wang.

What's the big deal Google Chrome is on of the most user friendly browsers' out there. IE8 is good but can be somewhat complicated. Firefox has to be the worst thing I have ever seen, nothing displays correctly it always looks to me to be an old style look when viewing most web pages. I use Google Chrome exclusively a great browser in my book!
"more modern and standards compliant browser such as Firefox"? This is a joke... just this week when developing a new web site for a advertisement company my customer asked me "can you make this fonts 'less ugly'" (that font was 'Arial' that Firefox renders as IE3 or Netscape navigator in the early days!!!) I mean... nobody that says Firefox is a modern browser should be taken into account... it's a modern browser with a "year 2000 browser render engine" (not to mention CSS - width / height of FF uses some kind of "crazy" measures and get's the final layout really unpredictable)
google should focus its search engine more, it wants to dominate all aspects of IT ?
Why talk about Google? Anybody up for sex?
Linux already has a browser with this functionality. CHROME!
Well considering Microsoft stealth installs an activex "helper", DRM, Silverlight, and WPF add-ins to Firefox through windows update without telling users, they can't be complaining when Google does it to them. At least Google makes it optional and voluntary.
as long as I can block it, or disable the plugin, so that my PC is pure Microsoft, and totally Microsoft 64 bit logo compliant, and meets Microsoft standards, I dont care what google does.
I should read before posting. Google's FAQ on it states rather clearly that this works with IE6, 7, and 8.
If this plug-in works with IE6 that would be the greatest gift to web developers. Over 10% of our site's visitors are still on IE6 because they work for large corporations who are barely lumbering toward modern systems.
So what if the Google Chrome Frame plugin is not installed or if it's disabled? Why is Google writing a pluggin a big deal?

Woman by the window
Whatever happened to the good nosy neighbor? There was a time when people bothered to keep up with their neighbors, but now in big cities like London you'll be lucky if your neighbors know you or if you can get a Hello out of them in the morning. I blame it on property developers. Couple of decades ago big houses were split up to small houses, and the small houses to flats and flats to studio flats, then you were left with empty match boxes. So moving on from the 80s it wasn't just the video killing the radio star, it was also the property developer killing the neighborhood stars. I remember when I was a student we had an old Greek Cypriot woman next door and she always baked these lovely olive loaves and used it as an excuse to come up and see what we were up to. Then she moved and we had two big Nigerian girls with the same libido as Caligula move in, between the so many boyfriends, and enough noise and orgasms to knock the first floor down I was offered some dodgy home-made cooking and a joke or was exchanged.

Elysium (2013)
Rating: 9/10
Fun: 9/10
In the distant future, the Earth becomes over populated and polluted, so the wealthy inhabitants of the Earth build a space station which simulates luxurious Earth life. After a line worker discovers he only has five days to live, he seeks for a way to travel to the space station to heal his disease.
I was super excited for this movie, I really like a good science fiction movie that isn't too over the top. This was an excellent movie and I absolutely loved it, but I can definitely notice that it had its share of flaws. To start off with the stuff that really made the movie stand out, the movie did a phenomenal job of creating a dying Earth. They paid attention to a lot of small details and it made for a very authentic feeling setting. On top of that, the special effects were incredible. But in regard to the special effects, a lot of it was sort of tainted by the awful shaking camera. Any action scene had constant shaking, some one on one fights were so bad that it was honestly hard to tell who was who, and it looked a little CGI. So visually it was impressive, but it had its share of bad moments. In regard to the plot, it was pretty good, however it wasn't memorable. I was expecting something a little more intricate than what was there, but unfortunately in the end it still felt like a generic science fiction plot with its own dabble of originality. That and the plot felt like it was a little rushed, I am usually the guy who complains about movies being too long, but it felt like the introduction was super quick. It follows the main character when he was a child for maybe 5 minutes, then a random totally unrelated 5-10 minute long scene basically showing what will end up being the plot of the movie, and then a lot of forced background story for the next 20 minutes. Just little forced background stories like "Hey man, I thought you used to be the best at stealing cars!" - "Haha yeah", just little things like that made it seem like they could have found a better way to bring that into the story. The acting was spot on, none of the roles really required anything super demanding, but all of the characters felt very believable, ranging from the poor inhabitants of Earth like Matt Damon and Alice Braga, to the evil villain Sharlto Copely (District 9 guy), to the wealthy Elysium residents (Jodie Foster). I know it seems like I am complaining a lot about the movie, but it was honestly an incredibly experience that I can't wait to revisit again when it comes out on DVD. I just wanted to comment on a few of the things that made it feel like it could have used some improvement. Regardless though, I loved it. The same guy who wrote and directed District 9 wrote and directed this movie, and District 9 was one of my favorite sci-fi movies in a LONG time. So if you enjoyed District 9, you'll enjoy this movie just as much. Most fun I had with this type of movie since well...District 9. The only MAJOR flaw I found with the movie is the not-so-subtle political taste to the message.

We're the Millers (2013)
Rating: 9/10
Fun: 10/10
A small time drug dealer must transport a huge amount of weed from Mexico, so he hires a stripper, a dork, and a runaway teen to disguise as a family to bring the drugs back home without suspicion.
The movie looked hilarious but I had my suspicions about it being a flop, but I was pleasantly surprised with the movie. Story-wise, it was original, but incredibly predictable. I wasn't expecting some seriously moving or memorable story, but at the same time I wasn't really hoping that I could basically predict the entire movie as it was happening. But on the flip side, there were plenty of laughs that I definitely did not see coming. It was honestly a movie that had me laughing from start to finish. What I liked about it is that while it was about weed, it wasn't a stoner comedy, which have been a little played out over the years. The comedy was really immature, and it honestly felt like a lot of the scenes had a lot of improvisation and actor adlibs, which really made it funnier. The outtakes after the movie really added to that effect. The acting was a little strange, since the four main characters are technically playing two roles, their "real" role and their disguise role, so sometimes it felt really strange when they would switch from one role to another. Its a little bit of a nitpicky complaint, but you have to see how strange sometimes it feels. All in all, it was a hilarious movie from start to finish. Definitely an enjoyable comedy.

21 Jump Street (2012)
Rating: 8.5/10
Fun: 9.5/10
I just revisited this movie last night for no apparent reason. I remembered it being pretty funny, but nothing special. On the second viewing I got to notice the sheer depth of the jokes and comedy in the film.
The movie breaks the ice right away by telling you this isn't just going to be some regular remake from a a chuckle worthy speech by Parks and Rec's Nick Offerman, who has a very well placed cameo (one of many) in the film. ONce the tone was set, the movie kicks into high gear with the stars Jonah Hill and Channing Tatum going back to high school, just like the original TV series. Tatum plays your average bully jock, who was a dick to Hill, sporting a hilarious Eminem style, in high school.
Tatum hits the mark in the movie, showing unexpected depth and proving some decent comedic talent (see Tatum's cameo in This Is The End). Hill is the exact same, playing off Tatum, he is wonderfully hilarious and the two of them create a very odd but believable team.
The movie had me hooked the entire time, with multiple laughs per minute and great depth in the jokes that were there. The film requires multiple views to see some of the jokes, especially the end credits sequence, which has its own contained jokes and visual puns.
Overall a hilarious film, with amazing cameos and decent acting. I highly recommend a watch, and for a fun fact the director of the film, Phil Lord, also created Clone High.Then I just won't bother!

The World's End (2013)
Rating: 7/10
Fun Rating: 8.5/10
Five friends back in 1990 try to accomplish the Golden Mile (or whatever it is) which is drink at 12 different pubs. They never completed it and 23 years later, the leader reunites everyone to try and do it again. Except this time things aren't what they seem to be.
The first 20 or 30 minutes of this movie are so completely different than the last hour. It's like two movies were edited together almost. Like, I understand why they did it this way. You gotta set it up, introduce the characters, part of the plot. Once the event in the men's room happens (and like Zokar said to me the other night, "Life changing things always happen in the men's room!") that's when the... real (?) conflict starts. I enjoyed myself. when I get excited in a movie theater, I tend to bounce up and down in my seat... Probably didn't help that it was ten at night and I was drinking a coffee and munching on coffee cake. >.> But I enjoyed myself and chuckled many times through out the movie. My friend Cheeto laughed a few times. He says he enjoyed the movie, it was something he was not expecting but amusing. And it was something I was not expecting either. It is a different movie and I was not expecting things to happen the way they did. In some aspects, I feel like there was no character resolution. At least the type that is BAM! IN YO' FACE! If there is, it is very subtle. Maybe the most stand out is at the end and it involves water. Anyways, I don't want to get into more for fearing spoiling it for anyone and I absolutely hate spoiling movies for others (really hate it when it is done to me). I will say it is amsuing, weird, different, and Simon Pegg is damn amusing, as usual. His buddy that is always seems to be with him (the dark-haired, kinda chubby fellow. He wears thick glasses in this film) plays a totally different character than I am used to seeing. I was pleasantly surprised at his seriousness in this film.
If you aren't 100% sure about this movie, wait till it comes out on some-kind-of-disc (DVD, blu-ray). Or go to a five dollar matinee. I say this so no one gets pissed off at me and be all like, "Well, you said it was good, Leo!"
"...I said it was good for ME. Apparently not for you."
There's a sex joke in there somewhere... Just can't think of it. Actually, I see it and it makes me look bad. *casual shrug* Me to know, you to find out.

Re: Movie Review thread.
I just saw it tonight. I liked it, I was laughing all the way through. As a stand alone film it is a solid 8/10 for me, but going along with the rest of the Trilogy, I'd say it was the most lacking of the bunch. Definitely different from Shaun of the Dead and Hot Fuzz, so don't go in expecting those and expect something a little more serious.Then I just won't bother!

The Cornetto Trilogy
Overall Rating: 9/10
Fun: 10/10
Edgar Wright's Cornetto trilogy has been in the spotlight lately with the recent release of the series finale of The World's End. In preparation I watched all three films. This is my review and thoughts on each film:
Shaun of The Dead
Fun: 9.5/10
The first in the trilogy, we find Simon Pegg as a hapless loser, working a dead end job living with his lazy best friend, played by Nick Frost. Going into the movie the first time I saw it I was thinking that it was going to be some ****tastic Dawn of The Dead spoof, but I was delightfully surprised. Right away we hear the Dawn of the Dead soundtrack play as the film opens, giving a great nod to the original films. The film leads into a very well layered set-up to the impending doom, sprinkling in tidbits here and there, setting up multiple jokes an relationships.
Once the action kicks in, the movie doesn't stop and hits punchline after punchline, giving great laughs. Wright's comedic timing is impeccable here. The relationships that develop in the film are also believable and fairly well fleshed out, especially the bromance between Pegg and Frost.
Overall, Shaun of the Dead was a surprise hit, easily becoming a cult classic and a fan-favourite. This opening to the trilogy set the tone for the next couple of films, setting a high bar for Wright.
Hot Fuzz
Rating: 9.5/10
Fun: 10/10
My personally favourite in the trilogy, Hot Fuzz is a love letter to buddy cop flicks like Bad Boys 2 and Point Break. Again, starring Pegg and Frost as newly formed partners in a small country town. Pegg is the big city cop that was forced to move to the countryside by his colleague. He plays a very different character from Shaun of the Dead, moving from the unmotivated slacker to an uptight professional, showing a surprising range in acting ability. Frost plays the bumbling but loveable idiot, which he is oh-so-good at doing.
Much like Shaun of the Dead, the films picks up and just doesn't quit, with some great fast paced humour and subtle jokes. The comedic timing is yet again damn near perfect from Wright, who utilizes both the scenery and editing to nail some great visual jokes.
The final 30 minutes of the movie is just pure adrenaline, giving a great nod to buddy cop flicks, with a nice twist. Absolutely hilarious. Another great thing to look for in the film is the amazing cameos from Bill Nighy, Cate Blanchett, Peter Jackson, and Martin Freeman among many more.
Overall Hot Fuzz was definitely the peak of the series, giving a great ride and will be considered a classic in t
he years to come.
The World's End
Rating: 8.5/10
Fun: 9/10
Being the finale to the Cornetto trilogy, The World's End had a lot to live up to coming after Shaun of the Dead and Hot Fuzz. This film had a much darker tone though, with much more in depth characters and some nice character development.
Again Pegg and Frost star, along with Martin Freeman. Pegg plays one his best characters in this series, a man who could never live past his high school years, stuck in the past while all of his friends have moved on. Pegg acts as a sort of narrator near the beginning, giving his outlook on the other characters on the film, setting expectations for the viewer for the other friends. These descriptions of the characters play out very nicely, as you see how their actual personality differs from Pegg's character's description. Frost changes his character up in this one, to become the more serious, straight man in the film.
The film starts fairly slowly with Pegg gathering his friends to attempt an infamous challenge called The Golden Mile, where they go to 12 pubs in one epic night, ending at The World's End pub. The film gathers its comedy from reminiscing and joking about old times, perhaps going along with the fact that this is the last film, but overall the start feels kind of slow, especially compared to the others in the trilogy.
Once the main plot of the film is revealed, however, the film quickly changes pace yet keeps the character interaction very much alive. The situation that arises is actually quite funny in its absurdity and acts as more of a backdrop for the character's mental struggles. The fight scenes are brutally hilarious and fast paced, showing great editing skills and some great camera work, but lacks some true comedy other than from the situation itself.
As the film wraps up, a great speech comes about from, a very drunk, Pegg and Frost giving a very serious addition to the film. The ending then just leaves you smiling with a couple of nods to the fact that this is truly the end of the Cornetto trilogy.
Overall, the film is a departure from its predecessors, giving a much more serious and matured tone. It also wraps up the trilogy very nicely, giving some great closure. A very enjoyable watch and I would love to go see it again so my seat is not being kicked the entire f***ing movie.
-----------------------------------If you have not seen any of this trilogy, I highly recommend a full watch through as they are some of the greatest comedies of the past decade. Edgar Wright has proved himself as a great comedy director, who can easily wander into more serious tones. Another great film from Wright is Scott Pilgrim vs. The World, which I also recommend.Then I just won't bother!

The 2007 film "Freedom Writers" is the true story of an inner city English teacher named Erin Gruwell who made numerous breakthroughs with her students by employing teaching methods that were ambitious and even a little risky. One such risky move involved assigning each student to start keeping a journal. The movie showcases some of the entries made in these journals and it is obvious that the effect it had on the students who wrote them was life-changing. What happened in the lives of some of those students was typical of the effects journaling has on anyone who takes on the task. Not every student's story ended happily, but every person involved in that project went through some degree of change.
Here are just a few reasons why everyone should journal and how doing so promotes mental wellness.
Puts Things into Proper Perspective
Getting your thoughts out on paper can really help make sense of things that seem to be rooted in chaos and provide you with the step back necessary to seriously inventory what is going on in your life and how you perceive what is happening to you. Sometimes, writing your thoughts out on paper allows the opportunity to collect them in a far more organized way than your mind alone will let you. We think in abstract terms; words are concrete. When our thoughts are reduced to words, we really see all their base qualities and can deal with them on a more foundational level. The result is that, upon re-reading a journal entry, we understand more clearly what was really going on in those thoughts. This process of self-reflection can have profound results in your life.
Helps You Make Good Decisions
Your journal is a place where you can weigh the pros and cons of any situation without the background noise of other people stepping in and offering their advice. Sometimes we need to seek out that advice, but sometimes the answers to life's more pressing questions can be found by simply understanding our thoughts at a given moment. Many problems don't seem so huge when you have the chance to step away from them and examine them again later.
Safe Haven for Private Thoughts
When it comes to areas of confession and brutal, no-holds-barred honesty, no other outlet compares to journaling. You can say things to people in your journal you could never say to their faces and you can scrutinize things more openly as well. This is where all of your angels and demons have the chance to battle it out and they can do it with no one else there to judge, criticize, or interfere.
It's Cathartic
There is a real purging and cleansing quality to getting all of your negative thoughts and emotions out on paper. Mentally, it's like taking them out of your head to make room for other – better – thoughts to take up residence. It can also help minimize the effects of anger, fear, resentment and all the other negatives that get poured into those less-than-happy entries.

A Christopher Dorner sighting was reported Sunday in my Northridge neighborhood. Helicopters swarmed, patrol cars roared up. The hardware store was evacuated and my favorite bakery roped off.
It turned out to be a false alarm — just some random big black guy trying to shop at Lowe's, not the rogue ex-cop sought in the killings of three people.
The mistake didn't surprise me. The $1-million bounty now on Dorner's head has prompted hundreds of recent "sightings." I imagine street vendors are already peddling "I'M NOT DORNER" T-shirts, in XXL.
- Bio | E-mail | Recent columns
Dorner case: In the Feb. 12 Section A, a column about public reaction to the case of Christopher Dorner, the former L.A. police officer suspected of three killings, gave an incorrect first name for a former Republican presidential candidate. His name is Jon Huntsman, not John.
What did surprise me was the response of locals to the prospect of Dorner nearby. They were worried more about "trigger-happy" cops than the risk posed by the fugitive at the center of the manhunt.
That's a reflection of how this twisted drama has taken on unexpected dimensions.
There has been, on the fringes, an online duel about whether Dorner's mission to avenge his "racist" firing from LAPD makes him villain, hero or victim. "Christopher Dorner For President" reads one Facebook page. "Find and Kill Christopher Jordan Dorner" urged another.
But there's confusion in the center too, unfolding in more measured tones in Facebook posts and on media comment boards, among people with different perspectives about the roots and meaning of this evolving tragedy.
Is this the story of one paranoid, delusional man, with a long memory, a mean streak and a murderous vendetta?
Or is it a reflection of racism, callousness and corruption, still stubbornly embedded in our new-and-improved Los Angeles Police Department?
Before any of us board the "folk hero" train, we ought to remember that Dorner is charged with murder in the death of a Riverside police officer and suspected of killing a young Irvine couple. The young woman, Monica Quan, was the daughter of a retired LAPD officer who was targeted for revenge by Dorner.
Still, Dorner's lengthy online manifesto left me with a lump in my throat. It is alternately frightening, painful, funny, smart and terribly disconcerting.
He lays out his grievances against the LAPD in excruciating detail. He lost his job and his dignity, he says, because of cowards, racists and liars.
But he goes further, giving us a peek at the man behind the violence and threats. He backed John Huntsman for president, but likes Michelle Obama's bangs. He admires Ellen DeGeneres and Charlie Sheen, Tim Tebow and Colin Powell. He remembers the first time he was called a "nigger." He fought back, in first grade, and was punished for it.
He plays on themes that resonate in many people's lives: social isolation, workplace slights, the feeling of being marginalized. And he validates those who mistrust law enforcement with his diatribes.
A sort of kinship was clear in online comments from readers, like the mother whose sons are "harassed" by cops, and the guy "railroaded" out of a job he loved.
Confusion reigned in others. "Morbidly fascinating," one reader pronounced it. Another found it hard to square the image of a heartless killer with a man whose manifesto draws on D.H. Lawrence.

Dr. Edward Green, UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon's special envoy for HIV/AIDS in the Caribbean, notes that while the Caribbean is second to Sub-Saharan Africa in the percentage of individuals with HIV/AIDS, the region has made progress in the past decade in fighting the disease. According to Green, the 2012 UNAIDS report on HIV/AIDS demonstrates for the Caribbean region: a 50-percent reduction in AIDS deaths, an 80-percent reduction in mother-to-child transmissions of HIV, and a 70-percent increase in the number of individuals who are taking antiretroviral medications. However, Green cautioned against complacency, pointing to funding cutbacks due to Caribbean countries being considered middle-income countries. Green made these comments while in New York as part of a group of envoys from various regions to discuss with the UN Secretary-General their progress in combating HIV/AIDS.
