Pilsner Fest will promote new music talent (Translation)
5 April 2011
Plzeň, April 4, 2011 - This year, the music festival Pilsner Fest is promoting new, or better yet, less well-known musical talents, primarily of the Plzeň region, and will provide them with the opportunity to experience the renowned cultural event from a different perspective. The most talented participants of the PRAZDROJ TALENTŮ (fountainhead of talent) competition will get the opportunity to perform next to their musical icons or with their own bands. The competition will have two categories: "singer" and "band." Those who are interested in participating and are 18 years of age or older may submit their applications together with an audio/video recording of a public performance of theirs to http://www.pilsnerfest.cz/until the end of May.
Band or singer applications submitted between 4.1 and 5.31.2011 will be judged by the professional judges lead by Pavel Anděl in the first round. The most successful of them will be sent to a public voting round. In addition, all performers will receive free beer. The submissions will be available for viewing/listening at the Pilsner Fest website.
Voting in the "SINGER" category
Fans will be able to submit their votes from 7.1 to 8.13.2011 via the Pilsner Fest website. The five most successful singers will get their spot on the stages of the festival, where they will have the chance to perform a hit number of their repertoire together with their favourite band.
Voting in the "BAND" category
Twelve bands will proceed to the next round based on the decision of the professional panel of judges. Those bands will become opening acts at the concerts of the traditional Summer in Prazdroj festival, where they will compete among themselves in duels. The most popular bands will be selected by votes cast by ballot during the Summer in Prazdroj festival and the whole following day on the website of the Pilsner Fest festival. The six favorites of the duels will proceed to the next voting round, taking place from 8.12 to 8.26 on the Pilsner Fest website. SMS text messaging voting will happen on 8.27. Those six bands will have a chance to perform on the Bulvár stage during this year's festival. The final winner will receive free beer for a year and a professional engagement for participation on one of the main stages of Pilsner Fest 2012.
The series of concerts of the Summer in Prazdroj festival take place in the courtyard of the Plzeň brewery. This year's festival will start on June 30, and concerts will take place every Thursday until August 25. Entrance is free and each concert starts at 7:00pm.
The music competition isn't the only opportunity to display one's musical talent during the Pilsner Fest, the biggest cultural event of its kind in western Bohemia. Just as last year, visitors may expect much excitement and many surprises, which will be presented progressively.
Last year's event produced several records, so Pilsner Fest 2011 will face a great challenge in trying to beat them. Last year, 50,000 people visited the festival. The combination of both Plzeň brands, Pilsner Urquell and Gambrinus proved to be a very good decision, because their consumption reached a record 768 hectolitres of beer, which is 150,000 beers. 5,331 Plzeň beer lovers toasted at the same time during the collective toast.

Getting to see "Old School Slayer Night" was perfect for me as 85-90 was when my musical taste was developed and I know the lyrics of every album front to back from that time period. Absolutely all my favorites! The pit was a little active throughout the show but I can tell that the Slayer audience is getting a little older as I ...

Napa >Food & Dining > Pica Pica Maize Kitchen
610 First St Ste 5, Napa, CA | Directions 9455938.301489 -122.281695
Wed-Mon 9am-7pm
Tue 9am-8pm
Colorful Venezuelan street food café in Oxbow Market. – Designed to mimic the comforting street food of Venezuela, this corn-centric spot is both hip and authentic. Diners can settle into an eight-seat bar and watch cooks in an open kitchen, or get it to-go as they peruse the market's other eclectic offerings. The house specialty is Arepas (grilled corn flatbreads), which come filled with savory flavors like chicken salad and creamy avocado or shredded skirt steak and fried plantains. Sweet corn pancakes, yucca fries and tropical fruit salads round out the unique menu.
Pica Pica Bar just opened next to Pica Pica Kitchen. An extension of the restaurant, it offers 10 beers on tap, red and white sangrias, wine by the glass and fruit shakers (Venezuelan batidos/fresh fruit juices). For food it has ceviches, arepa sliders (pulled pork or pickled veggies and cheese) or arepa bites (fried pork rind and cheese mini arepas).' picapicabar.com
It is A-Maizing!! – Pica Pica is a MUST while in Napa! I had never eaten Venezuelan before and I am hooked. The menu introduces Venezuelan favorites with local meats and produce to create a delicious outcome. You can't go wrong with anything on the menu, but my favorites are the Pubellon Arapa & the Chupe soup. Oh and the frozen Sangria...mmmmmm!
This is not fast food. It's fantastic food. – This food is tasty, tasty, tasty. I've eaten here a couple of times and have not been disappointed. Try the Pabellon. It's shredded skirt steak with plantains with terrific flavors. You can't go wrong with the Yucca fries. For drinks you can get anything from water to beer to Frozen Sangria. Order at the counter and eat at the bar or wander outside and grab a table overlooking the Napa River. The staff is friendly and the prices right. For a quick bite that taste like a million bucks Pica Pica is the place.
BEST PICNIC AT COPIA, and beyond! – This is WHAT TO DO when you go to Napa on the first or second day. Go to Copia and purchase a wine card, walk 30 seconds to Pica Pica, grab lunch to go, and wallk back to Copia, grab a full glass of wine, and enjoy the picnic at the gardens.
For the picnic, DO ask for extra black beans sauce and hot sauce, the vegetarian items are FAB!!! and the grilled cheese? move over French Laundry. I have found my new obsession.
The sweet plantains, AKA platanos maduros, are a great addition to the vegetarian tofu sandwich, the sweetness of the plantains and the savoty of the sandwich just screams white wine. Please remember to drizzle the black beans sauce all over your lunch.
Do take a rest and enjoy a sip of the wine?
but you will find yourself getting back to the food rather quickly. It?s like lunch in paradise. Lunch for 2 people and the best 2 wines at Copia- Priceless.
Oh yes, you also get an education in wine.
Great Venezuelan food – This is the only Venezuelan restaurant I can think of in the entire Bay Area. It is not a sit down restaurant. It is more of a take out place with a counter and tables within the Oxbow Public Market, a covered hall next to Copia by Napa river. They serve comfort Venezuelan food, the kind you can buy and eat in the street anywhere in Venezuela and it is delicious! I went with a Venezuelan friend and I met the owner. To him, the food was authentic. We tried every thing. It is rich, full of cheese, some dishes are made with normal corn whereas others are made with very sweet corn. It is not for anyone on a diet. My favorite was the chicken/avocado salad in an arepa called pepeada. It had perfect flavor. Try the place next time you happen to be in Napa. I highly recommend it if you fancy South American comfort food.

"That was one of the reasons to move out here," Bright said of the superb location. "The rent was cheaper and this location included a drive-thru and patio seating."
The coffee shop was crowded mid-morning on Monday as people sat out front and talked while sipping on lattes, nibbling on pastries and enjoying the mild weather. A consistent line of cars carried passengers who ordered their food and drink through an intercom while a steady stream of customers flowed in and out of the inviting store front to pick up their morning caffeine boost.
Kats Koffee has been welcomed into the community. Its location, near the new Bully's Sports Bar & Grill in Spanish Springs on the southbound side of Pyramid, makes it convenient for residents to grab a cup of coffee and a bite to eat in the morning before heading into Reno and Sparks to work. Kats Koffee is also the only coffee shop in Spanish Springs.
Location. Location. Location.
As if convenience could not be more important to a hurried commuter, Kats Koffee offers friendly customer service, amazing coffees, smoothies, Italian sodas and gelato as well as pastries and breakfast sandwiches and lunch specials.
For customers who walk into Kats Koffee, the teal walls are inviting and soothing against the brown counter tops and tables, and a chorus of voices says "hello."
"Everything is still the same," Bright said of the new location's décor and service. "Everyone here greets you with a smile, if not a hello."
It took Bright about six months to open the new location.
"I got worried when I closed down the shop to open this one," Bright said. "It took about three to four months longer than I wanted it to take."
Bright being in business helps keep other local businesses going ,as well. To keep Kats Koffee stocked and ready to make all of its unique beverage offerings, Bright, who is a life-long Sparks resident, said he tries to use all local vendors.
Bright keeps the pastry case stocked with goodies from Rolling in the Dough, he gets his pumpkin and specialty breads from Harvest Grains, his syrups and smoothie mixes come from Tavern Product Supply, the teas are supplied by Davidson's Teas and the coffee beans are from Woodfire Roasting Company.
"When I get my coffee beans, they're so freshly roasted that the bags are still warm," Bright said.
Bright also said he buys his milk from Costco because it's the best price he can find, and even with the support of the community and the constant flow of customers, that his milk purchases are down.
Bright said that 40 gallons of milk, which includes whole-milk, non-fat milk and half-and-half, will be sufficient for five to seven days of business. He added that he should be buying more than 100 gallons of dairy products a week, but is confident that business will increase again soon.
In addition to using local business to keep his own going, Bright is also trying hard to keep Kats Koffee eco-friendly.
"We are working with the Green Star Restaurant Association to get green certified," Bright said. "A good 90 percent of my business is made up with compost-able or biodegradable products."
Bright said the plastic lids and cups used at Kats Koffee are biodegradable and that customers who order pastries or sandwiches who need a bag are getting one that is made from corn starch so it is biodegradable, as well. Even the to-go boxes are made from potato starch by a company called Tater Ware.
Bright did want to make it clear that just because a business chooses to go green, the customer should not pick up the cost.
"I'm not the person who is going to charge you and arm and a leg to go green," Bright said, adding that he absorbs the cost of using green products.
Even with using local vendors and green products, Bright said a customer can walk into Kats Koffee with $5 and walk out with a satisfying drink and a tasty treat. Kats Koffee has a menu that includes a full line-up of caffeinated drinks ranging from $2.50 for a small latte to $3.65 for a large
A breakfast sandwich combo includes a ham, egg and cheese sandwich on a bagel or bread and a small drink for $4. A lunch sandwich combo includes a roast beef, chicken or ham sandwich and includes potato or pasta salad and a small drink for $5.95.
"I get a lot of compliments on my roast beef sandwiches and I have a chicken sandwich that is awesome," Bright said.
Customers be warned: There is always room for dessert. Bright did his research and offers an array of delicious homemade gelatos. Although the gelatos are fantastic, it was the love of coffee that brought Bright into the business.
Bright graduated from Sparks High School in 1995. He trained and worked as an electrician until he started researching coffee and decided to open his own shop. The original Kats Koffee opened in the Sparks Galleria in 2007.
"Pretty much the love of coffee made me want to get into this business," Bright said. "I have to say, the community has supported me very well out here."
Kats Koffee is located at 9725 Pyramid Hwy. in Spanish Springs. It is open from 5 a.m. to 8 p.m. seven days a week.

Zimbabwe: Poaching Cartel Fulfills Rhino Horn and Elephant Ivory Orders Placed By Chinese Nationals

Zimbabwe: Poaching Cartel Fulfills Rhino Horn and Elephant Ivory Orders Placed By Chinese Nationals
by Rhishja Larson
A shocking undercover journey reveals that a poaching cartel known as The Crocodile Gang, led by Zimbabwes Emmerson Mnangagwa, is slaughtering rhinos and elephants to fulfill requests for horn and ivory.
Dubbed the Crocodile Gang, this cartel - whose existence can be revealed by the Mail today - is behind the industrial-scale slaughter of black rhinos, prompting warnings that the species will be hunted to extinction in the region within two years.
And the godfather of the poaching cartel is said to be Emmerson Mnangagwa - known by locals now as The Crocodile. Also referred to as The Butcher of Matabeleland, he is the architect of Zimbabwes terrifying state security apparatus, creator of Zimbabwes Central Intelligence Office (CIO) - and rumored to be next in line for president after Mugabe.
Probably risking his life, Andrew Malone, a writer for The UKs Daily Mail, reports that he went undercover, posing as an overseas buyer of illegal rhino horn to dig deeper into the widespread rhino massacre that stands to wipe out an entire species. What he reveals is an appalling world of cruelty, corruption, death threats - and the consequences suffered by those who have tried to speak out.
The meeting
Posing as an overseas buyer of illegal rhino horn, I was given an unprecedented insight into the sheer scale of the operation - and the vast sums involved. After making contact with the ivory cartel through an intermediary, we were instructed to drive 400 miles south-west of Harare and telephone a number using a pre-arranged codeword. There, after more elaborate instructions, we were told to drive to a remote location in Matabeleland, near the border with South Africa and Botswana.
Mr. Malone then describes meeting with a man named Gerald - who operates with members of Zimbabwes Central Intelligence Office (CIO). Gerald has just returned from a successful rhino hunt - fulfilling the orderplaced by a Chinese buyer.
The rhino was being killed to order: a Chinese buyer had offered to pay £3,200 per kilo of rhino horn. It wasnt easy - there is no cover because its winter and the animal kept seeing us by the moonlight and running away, he told me.
After first shooting the rhino in the lungs, Gerald and his men pursue the wounded rhino for 12 hours. When the wounded rhino lay down to rest at a watering hole, Gerald and his men shot the rhino six times, and then hacked the horns from the animals face using the large, machete-like knives called pangas.
Gerald had sold the horns two days before our meeting. When I told him I would pay an even higher price, his eyes narrowed. He said. I will contact you the next time.
The case of the disappearing docket
Earlier this month, the involvement of Mnangagwa and Webster Shamu, Zimbabwes media and information minister, came into the spotlight when a police officer stopped a Chinese man at roadblock - and was found to be carrying six rhino horns, still bloody.
The Chinese man implicated Mnangagwa and Webster Shamu.
Unfortunately, the policeman who uncovered the ivory haul has vanished - along with his report. Meanwhile, the Chinese national was released - with his [horns] - and escorted through Harare International Airport to his plane.
The Zim Daily reported the following about the corruption cover-up:
a police docket against two ZANU PF heavyweights Emmerson Mnangagwa and Webster Shamu has vanished from attorney-general Johannes Tomanas office. And, efforts to give Tomana a copy of the docket has seen the police superintendent who was in charge of the investigations transferred from his posting at Bulawayo Central police station to a rural outpost at Nzvimbo in Chiweshe.
Mr. Malone, in his article, explains another prominent Webster Shamu connection, Charles Davy:
Davy and Shamu set up HHK safaris, which offers trophy hunting of animals including elephant and lion, to wealthy foreigners. While almost every other white landowner has been driven from his property by Mugabes thugs, Davy has prospered. A friend of Mugabe, he has made an estimated £10 million from his big-game hunting business.
According to the Zimbabwe Times:
Shamu and Davy were associated in HHK Safari Company until it was disclosed that, far from being a partner in a joint venture in the lucrative operation as widely reported, Shamu was merely a front for foreign interests.
A common thread
65,000 Black Rhinos were alive in Africa as recently as 1970. Now there are only 2,300 total surviving in the wild - and the number is dwindling. Elephant poaching continues to skyrocket.
Conservationists and wildlife experts agree: Chinas booming prosperity is fueling the massacre.
Earlier this year, Wu Ming Quan, another Chinese businessman, was caught with 500kg of ivory at Harare airport. The tusks were spotted on an X-ray machine at the airport. But the X-ray operator was prevented from confronting Quan by three members of Zimbabwes secret police. According to undercover wildlife investigators, the Chinese businessman had paid an additional £2,000 for safe passage through the airport. The X-ray operator was arrested and thrown in jail for threatening to bring the crime to light.
Mr. Malone also notes that a ton of ivory was seized in Nairobi two months ago - it was being shipped from Zimbabwe to China.
I wrote about the ivory situation in my post Kenya Wildlife Service Dismayed at Resurgence in Elephant Poaching:
Earlier this month, an illegal shipment of elephant tusks and rhino horn was seized at the Jomo Kenyatta Airport. Blood on the ivory and horns confirmed that the elephants and rhinos had recently been killed.. The animal parts were hidden in coffins, and were en route to Laos. Kenya wildlife authorities are confident that the tusks and horn had a final destination of China, where the illegal trade in endangered species parts is well-established.
And Kenya Fears Link Between Elephant Killings and Chinese Construction Projects:
The Kenya Wildlife Service suspects it is more than a coincidence that a large number of elephant killings have occurred in areas where Chinese crews have recently arrived for massive construction projects.
According to Save the Elephants, the majority of smugglers arrested at Jomo Kenyatta Airport are now Chinese nationals.
The Zululand Observer has now reported the following regarding the poaching of eight white rhinos in Opathe-Emakhoseni Heritage Park (OEHP):
Developments regarding the OEHP incidents have since seen four men and a woman, all of Chinese origin, appear in the Babanango Magistrates Court on Tuesday this week, following their arrest inside OEHP near Ulundi. They were found trespassing, as the reserve has been temporary closed to the public, pending the appointment of a new manager for the park. They were not asked to plead to any charges and the case was postponed pending further investigations. Those who appeared are Pingquan Ni (37), Shuiwang Wu (37), Daxin Zhang (42), Xiufu Lin (32) and Meixia Zhu (26). They own businesses in Ulundi.
Just last week, tame, hand-raised celebrity rhino Toliwe, featured in a Cell C TV commercial, became a victim of poachers.
Death threats
While on his mission, Mr. Malone had the opportunity to meet the founder of the Zimbabwe Wildlife Task Force, Jonny Rodriguez. There have been many threats made on his life for speaking out.
Jonny Rodriguez, a Zimbabwean former special forces soldier, is one of the few people brave enough to speak out against this government-sponsored slaughter. Founder of the Zimbabwe Wildlife Task Force, a group that works to save endangered species, he has received countless death threats.
Taking steps
There have been reports that the BBC has resumed broadcasting openly from Zimbabwe for the first time since 2001. And CNN might even be allowed soon.
In recent years of political and economic turmoil, most Western organizations had been refused government licenses to report from Zimbabwe. Correspondents from the BBC and other media have acknowledged reporting clandestinely from Zimbabwe, at times entering on tourist visas.
These crimes thrive in secret, and will continue as long as there is no speaking out against them.
One of the first steps, then, is to begin talking about what is going on: Help by giving a voice to the rhinos and elephants who are unable to speak for themselves.
Andrew Malone has taken a brave step. Heres to taking more steps like his.

I have booked a 2012 hunt in Zim, and in preparation I read Wilbur Smith's Ballantyne Novels about the formation of Rhodesia, the strife between races and tribes, and the troubles in "modern" Zimbabwe (A Falcon Flies, Men of Men, The Angels Weep, The Leopard Hunts in Darkness). While Wilbur may have his own agenda and view on life, the last novel - The Leopard Hunts in Darkness - incorporates into the story a poaching ring that is headed by a high-ranking government official. For those interested, I found these novels to be quite good and hard to put down. I certainly have a better feel for the history of Zim. Sad that his "fictional" novel from 1984 incorporates a story line that continues to play out today.Shakey Katy, TX

The Space Age at 50
Space: The Next Generation
Photograph by NASA
The space age began on the chill evening of October 4, 1957. Sputnik, a 184-pound (83 kilograms) aluminum sphere tucked into the nose of a Soviet R-7 ballistic missile, streaked skyward from its launchpad near the edge of the Kyzyl Kum desert about a hundred miles (170 kilometers) east of the Aral Sea to become the first man-made object to orbit the Earth. An epoch of exploration and discovery as momentous as any in history had begun. Humans would go on to orbit the Earth, float in space, and—most spectacularly—set foot on the moon. Just 15 years later it was over—after the last Apollo mission to the moon in December 1972. The space shuttle, a technological marvel at its debut in 1981, has proved to be fragile, expensive, and dangerous. And since it cannot fly beyond low Earth orbit, it has transformed spaceflight into a series of high-tech cruises to nowhere. When Columbia disintegrated over Texas during reentry in 2003, killing all seven of its astronauts, investigators decried the aimlessness of the human spaceflight program. In response, President George W. Bush has outlined a new "Vision for Space Exploration": to return American astronauts to the moon by 2020 and eventually send them to Mars. The United States is ordering new rockets, building a new spaceship, making plans for a moon base—and, against long odds, trying to recapture the sense of urgency and adventure that propelled our first push into space.

$5 drafts – this place has a ridiculous crew of regulars that think spending $10 on a drink is going to get the bartender to go home with them.
this is a sad,sad place.
i am going there for my fifth grade feild trip!!!And, im also going 2 c the steelers, i, know u wanna, b me
Worship rock legends while dining on familiar American favorites. – In Short
Walls covered with decades of Top-40 memorabilia, rock songs blaring in the background and an all-American menu typify this music-themed restaurant. The kitchen churns out group-friendly appetizers like nachos and Southern staples like barbecue ribs and chicken. Burgers are served with hefty sides of fries and the signature pulled-pork sandwich is topped with vinegar barbecue sauce. The gift shop sells branded items like T-shirts, shot glasses and hats.
Highly overratted – Better bring your paycheck! If you plan to have a few drinks at the bar while you wait to be seated which usually takes a very long time, you better have a lot of money with you. We found the drinks to be ridiculously expensive. But I guess, this is the city. The food is ok, nothing to get terribly excited about. The nachos appetizer is pretty good. The burgers are ok. The service was quick and friendly and they did get our order right.
Concert no-no – If there is a show at this place, don't bother. You're herded in like cattle & you have to wait outside for hours just to be hip to hip w/some stranger.
Super fun place to eat! – Sure the wait can be a while on the weekends, but how is that different from any other popular restaurant? The music and memorabilia make this a fun place to eat. Even while waiting, you can pass the time in the little shop or walk around and see all of the differents artists memorabilia, including The Beatles and KISS. The workers are very friendly and have always pleased me.
YUCK! – I've been to like 15 Hard Rocks, not by choice, but beacause my parents always made me go on vacations. When they put one in at Pittsburgh I never thought I would go, because I was not impressed with the food, the wait, or the service, in any of the cities I had gone to. Before homecoming everyone goes out to dinner and my friends wanted to go there. But, when we got there, we had to wait for like an hour to be seated and then they screwed up my food! By the time we finally got our food it was too late to send it back because we would be late for the dance... so I just went to homecoming hungry!
If you're not a fan of over priced burgers I don't recommend this place! Also, if you're HUNGRY, don't go because you will wait for everything!

Sparks lost 3-1 to the Vaqueros and remains winless on this young season.
Morelli went a full seven innings and struck out 10 batters. Although he was keeping the Fernley offense down with his fastballs, the rest of the team only managed to give him one run on five total hits for support.
"Dennis threw outstanding today," Sparks coach Greg Vasko said. "It's a shame he has to lose a game in which he pitched so well but we didn't give him any run support. And the mistakes, they kill you. But we're going to learn from our mistakes and get better."
As it turns out, Morelli drove in the Railroaders' only run of the day. His bunt down the first base line helped senior Leonel Abundis touch home plate in the first inning for the local club's only run of the day.
The hitters from Sparks had their opportunities. But base-running mistakes such as trying to steal one too many bases in the third inning, or getting a bad jump in the fifth, robbed Sparks of any chance to bring in more runs. Vasko said the Vaqueros' catcher did a great job of throwing out runners.
Two of Fernley's three runs were the result of Sparks miscues. A wild pitch brought in one and an overthrown first-baseman in the seventh inning was the cause of the other.
The Railroaders' final chance to score two runs in the bottom of the seventh inning was quick. Three batters stepped up to the plate, and three batters were retired.
"We have to work on hitting. 0-2, 3-2 pitches because we looked at a lot of pitches for strike three, " Vasko said. "We have to work on getting the ball in play so we can have opportunities to move runners around."
Sparks (0-4) has a week to work on those things until it visits Incline March 19.

patients typically utilize more, and higher cost health care services than
younger patients. One way states can ensure that coverage remains affordable
for everyone is to use age rating bands that spread premium costs over a range
of age groups. For example, in a state
with a 5:1 age band, the ratio limits the amount an older individual will pay
to no more than five times what a younger individual pays in premium
dollars. Currently 42 states have age
rating bands that are 5:1 or more.
January 1, 2014, the law limits the age rating band to 3:1, causing an
overnight increase in premiums for younger individuals (ages 18-49) that live
in states that currently have higher age bands. This increases the likelihood that younger, healthier people will choose
to pay the penalty and wait to purchase health insurance until after they get
sick or injured, thus driving up costs for everyone else. An article from actuaries at Oliver Wyman published in Contingencies highlights the impact of the Affordable Care Act's (ACA) age rating restrictions on premiums.
To see how age rating will affect premiums, watch AHIP's new video:
A new report from Milliman, Inc. helps explain how the Affordable Care Act's (ACA) coverage expansion, new benefits, and market reforms will impact individual market health insurance premiums in 2014. The report highlights how some provisions will increase premiums while others will make health care coverage more affordable for consumers. The focus of this report is to highlight the broad range of changes happening in the marketplace and the wide variation in impact that is likely to occur.
This presentation from Oliver Wyman examines the impact of ACA market reforms on affordability.
America's Health Insurance Plans (AHIP) President and CEO Karen Ignagni released the following statement in response to new rules released today by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) finalizing the age rating restrictions included in the health care reform law.

proposals on the individual and small employer health insurance market. According to this model, if the age band is
compressed to 3:1, premiums for the youngest-healthiest third of individuals
would be 35% higher in Year 1 compared to reform with 5:1 rating bands.
Health plans today reiterated their strong support for new market rules and consumer protections to cover all Americans and guarantee coverage for pre-existing conditions. "Health insurance reform is an essential part of health care reform", said AHIP President and CEO Karen Ignagni.

Media Contacts
(WASHINGTON, D.C.) – Mayor Vincent C. Gray; D.C. Council Chairman Kwame Brown; Councilmembers Marion Barry (Ward 8), Tommy Wells (Ward 6) and Yvette Alexander (Ward 7); and District Department of Transportation (DDOT) Director Terry Bellamy today launched a new D.C. Circulator route, the first to ever provide service east of the Anacostia River. The new route runs from the Potomac Avenue Metro Station to Skyland and the Good Hope Marketplace Shopping Center via Barracks Row.
"When you provide better transit service and improve mobility, there are a host of benefits – not the least of which is better access to jobs," said Mayor Gray. "This new route connects these communities east of the River - where jobs are scarce - with the employment centers across the District."
The Potomac Avenue Metro to Skyland via Barracks Row route will complement existing Metrobus routes with fast, limited-stop service bridging the Anacostia River. Passengers paying with a SmarTrip card will be able to travel from Skyland to anywhere the Circulator travels in the District, including Georgetown and Union Station, for just $1.00.
"The D.C. Circulator's low fare, convenient schedule and unique styling make it a very attractive and popular way to get around," said Director Bellamy. "In fact, more than 500,000 people ride Circulator buses every month now, and we're confident that number will go up now that we can provide service to more neighborhoods. We welcome this new route to the Circulator family today and look forward to serving new customers."
The route will initially run from 6 am to 7 pm, Monday through Friday, and will serve the following stops in Wards 6, 7, and 8:
Potomac Avenue Metro Station to Skyland Direction
• Potomac Avenue Metrorail Station
• Pennsylvania Ave & E St SE
• 8th St & D St SE
• 8th St & G St SE
• 8th St & L St SE
• Anacostia Metro Station
• Martin Luther King Jr Ave and W St SE
• 1225 Good Hope Rd SE
• Good Hope Rd & 14th St SE
• Good Hope Rd & 18th St SE (Anacostia Library)
• Good Hope Rd & 25th St SE
• Alabama Ave & 30th St SE
Skyland to Potomac Avnue Metro Station Direction
• Naylor Road & Good Hope Road SE
• Good Hope Rd & 25th St SE
• Good Hope Rd & 18th St SE (Anacostia Library)
• Good Hope Rd & 14th St SE
• Martin Luther King Jr Ave and W St SE
• Anacostia Metro Station
• 8th St & L St SE
• 8th St & G St SE
• 8th St & E St SE
• Pennsylvania Ave & 12th St SE
• Potomac Avenue Metrorail Station
Winter Hours (October 1-March 31) - Weekdays 6 a.m.-7 p.m.
Summer Hours (April 1-September 30) - Weekdays 6 a.m.-9 p.m., Saturdays 7 a.m.-9 p.m.
In addition to making stops at the Anacostia, Eastern Market and Potomac Avenue Metro stations, the new route will also connect to six Capital Bikeshare stations. For more specific information about Capital Bikeshare, visit www.capitalbikeshare.com.
In developing this route, DDOT held four public meetings with residents and interested stakeholders to solicit input on the proposed route and stop locations. The final route takes into consideration comments received from these community meetings as well as a community survey.
Please note: The route as shown included a detour on Martin Luther King, Jr. Avenue, SE and past the Anacostia Metro Station that was necessitated by construction on the 11th Street Bridge Project. DDOT plans to close the 13th Street ramp to the inbound bridge later this year, and the buses had to be rerouted to navigate around the planned closure. The detour route is longer and DDOT is exploring options to obtain 2 more buses so the Circulator can maintain 10-minute headways.
For more information about all of the Circulator routes, please visit www.DCCirculator.com.
The District Department of Transportation (DDOT) owns and operates the Circulator. DC Surface Transit Inc. (DCST) oversees Circulator marketing. DCST is a nonprofit composed of the Downtown, Capitol Hill, Capitol Riverfront, Adams Morgan, Golden Triangle and Georgetown Business Improvement Districts; Destination DC; the Walter E. Washington Convention Center Authority; DDOT; and the National Capital Planning Commission (NCPC).

SAB buys fourth brewery in China
13 November 2004
The South African Breweries Limited (SAB) has announced that its Chinese joint venture, China Resources Enterprises Beverage Limited (CREB) - in which SAB holds a 49 percent interest - has purchased a 90 percent stake in the brewing assets of the Sichuan Yatai Brewing Company for US$10,8 million.
The assets of the Yatai Brewery, situated in the city of Mianyang in the Sichuan province of China, will be housed in a new company, named China Resources (Mianyang) Brewing Company Limited. The 10 percent balance of ownership will be held by Sichuan (Asia Pacific) Holdings Company Limited.
Further investments will be made in terms of rehabilitation and upgrading as well as working capital requirements.
Through CREB, SAB has, over the last two years, acquired joint control of three other major breweries serving the province of Liaoning: the two breweries in Shenyang City and the Dalian brewery in Dalian. SAB also has an interest in the Shenzhen C'est Bon Food and Drink Company in the Guandong Province.
The new brewing concern with a capacity of 700 000 hectolitres per annum, now marks SAB's partnership in four breweries in China with a total brewing capacity of over 5 million hectolitres per annum.
The latest acquisition is in line with SAB's growth strategy to develop regional focal areas in preference to a national drive in a country the size of China, which produces some 150 million hectolitres of beer annually.
Sichuan province is located in the central region of the country and has a population of 100 million people.

The South African Breweries Limited

Service Area: Medical
Subject: Physical Examinations by Physicians
Patient complaints of sexual misconduct by physicians are the most sensitive and difficult cases the Board investigates. The incidents are rarely witnessed. Allegations of sexual misconduct are particularly difficult to prove and can lead to public humiliation for both the patient and the involved physician.
Physicians will, of course, continue to routinely perform physical examination in the course of patient care out of medical necessity and professional responsibility. In order to prevent misunderstandings and protect physicians and their patients from allegations of sexual misconduct, the following guidelines are advocated as policy by the State Medical Board:
(7) The physician must uphold the same professional standards as a medical staff member in the hospital, and as an employer in the office.

Walk the mustard aisle of any store, and "D" will stand for Dijon, a testament, perhaps, to the popularity of all those Grey Poupon commercials. But "D" also means Dusseldorf, an oft-overlooked style that has multiple culinary uses beyond garnishing a hot dog.

I've enjoyed the finest beers offered between Honolulu and Hamburg, as well as the skunkiest. This beverage, dousing my draconian palate, was the best it's ever tasted. It was robust, but minus the burnt-tire taste of a stout. In fact, my five-star meal took second fiddle and cooled until the beverage was through. For a mere $12, it's worth every penny. Savor the flavor, ride the buzz, and see it as money well spent, for we're here for such a short time in the kaleidoscope of life.

An insane amount of gratitude goes out to dmeadows who proxied a bottle of this for me when it was released. Been waiting to crack it and tonight it called my name. Still have some of a 2011 Three Philosophers that I opened a bit ago to compare it to (I know different vintage). Enjoyed from an Ommegange chalice.
a - de-caged and popped the cork, filled my glass. the brew poured a deep plum with a thinner head than the non BA version. visually they are quite similar although the barrel aged definitely has more of a watery look and less of a creamy head.
s - the smell leads with some bourbon sweetness. the barrel seems to have overtaken the beer. i really don't get any of the wonderful smells that i get from the base beer in the side-by-side comparison. the wood brings vanilla, booze, and some burnt which definitely overpowers the odor. comparing it to the original it is missing a lot of what i love about this beer...but on the other hand it does have that bourbon shine. lots of sweetness, but more plum/raisin and more vanilla than the original.
t - wow, the taste is pretty crazy. very different from the original. big vanilla notes and lots of booze...which seem to drown out the wonderful cherry quad of the original. it is pretty tasty, but in a side-by-side there is no doubt that i prefer the original. the cherry and dark fig flavors are traded in for vanilla and booze with dark fruit in the backseat.
m - mouth is lush and creamy. carbonation is dialed back quite a bit, but still there. the booze is present but not too intense for the mouth.
o - overally, i'm a big fan of three philosophers (it is the beer that turned me into a beer geek) and i'm also a big fan of barrel aging...the mix of the two in this case is not necessarily better than the individual parts. i'd love to say that i love this, and frankly i do like it...however this is one of those cases where sticking an amazing beer in some bourbon barrels doesn't make the beer more amazing. i'm extremely glad to have tried this as a big ommegang fanboy, but aside from the low bottle counts on these varieties it seems that you aren't missing much beyond a tick if you miss out on this series...although i did LOVE the adoration when i first had it, but on a second taste found it a bit off. the bourbon abbey ale i found to be the highlight of these three treatments.

Hug thanks t Bill for this one
very dark brown, almost a cola like color with a very hazy and cloudy appearance pretty much obscuring everything inside and making it look a very thick consistency. A very nice three finger high head of tan colored lace came flying up to the top. Very active on the pour would be an understatement,
very varied, deep and complex with different hints and small nuances of smell coming through at various different times during the course of the session. The first thing I was able to pick up with a very nice dark fruity aroma. Lots of raisins, figs, plums, and even a touch of grape showing up in here. Very well mixed and balanced between them but leading more toward the sugary notes as it started to warm up. Lots of spice was evident as well right from the start. A sort of odd nutmeg like spice along with a touch of cinnamon, and sugar. Some aromas of oak or other wood like characteristics starting to come through now as well.
The first notes that came across were very rich, sugary notes of raisins, which were just a wonderful way to start off the whole thing. Deep dark fruity flavors were the norm on this was with prunes and figs lining up behind it, quickly delving it deeper and deeper. A very strong presence of sugar was next up, really pushing through and drying to lighten it up. A touch of something sour playing around in the back, and just briefly showing up in the flavor before diving back down and out of site again. Rolling on some nice earthy, oak like notes starting to come now with spices becoming more pronounced in the finish.

got to try this one at a special "taste of belgians" beer tasting held right here in jersey this got whipped out and everyone was awwwwing it
i had just got done trying the three philosophers the night before so i was so ready for this, appearance was almost the same as last time the head was not as pronounced however and it appeared darker almost like a coffee color foam
smell was not good this is not a good start it reeked like vanilla beans and bourbon booze you could not get any good yeast and spice and malt like the last time
taste was overwhelming with bourbon it completely ruined the nuance of the great three philosphers the original once has a great sour tanginess and spice and yeast and this one was completely dominated by bourbon it overpowered everything else
mouthfeel is heavy rich and boozy and syrupy
overall i don't like this beer at all i am hapy they expirimented with this style but the bourbon barrel did not help this beer at all what it did do is take a beer that is normally really great and made it below average and actually something i would not seek out again

750ml generously shared by shadowane. Thanks again Rich!
From the tag around the neck of the bottle: "Three Philosophers Quadruple Ale was aged nine months at Ommegang. It went into Buffalo Trace Bourbon Barrels in September 2009 and was bottled n May 2010. Only 200 bottles were created".
Pours a murky dark chocolate brown color that is completely opaque with toffee/chocolate brown colored edges when held to a light and a one finger off-white head that slowly fades into a lasting ring. Sporadic spots of lace left behind.
Sweet boozy aroma with subtle hints of bourbon that do not overpower the other notes. Vinous with sweet dark fruit alongside some roasted sweet malt. An interesting blend of toffee, caramel, hazelnut, dark cherry, plum and raisin in the nose. I was surprised that the barrel presence wasn't stronger with only faint hints of dry oak/wood and subtle bourbon. I usually prefer for the bourbon presence to be less intense so that the other characteristics can shine through but in this case I would have preferred a bit more of it.
Medium boded with some soft, tight carbonation up front and an interesting combination of flavors. More sweet than anything else with lots of vinous dark fruit especially dark cherry and grape. This is complimented nicely by the bourbon barrel presence. Sweet and boozy with subtle bourbon, faint vanilla and dry earthy oak/wood. Again, as the aroma suggests, the bourbon doesn't dominate, letting the other flavors come through. Slightly toasted malt backbone with hints of sweet hazelnut, toffee and caramel.
Overall, this beer is a touch one dimensional with a lot of vinous sweet fruit flavor. The malt presence could be stronger and the bourbon flavor is a bit mild. I'm glad that you could still taste the quad/base beer but I wish that it was a bit more complex.
