TTB Expo 2008
June 17th, 2008
The ShipCompliant research team is attending the first annual TTB Expo at the Northern Kentucky Convention Center, just outside of Cincinnati, today and tomorrow. The turnout here is quite impressive. In the opening remarks, the TTB team said their original goal was to get about 300 attendees from across the country. They had over 650 pre-register, and it seems like the actual attendance today is more like 1,000.
The turnout from the wine industry is equally impressive. We've run into a number of friends and partners in the industry from across the country today.
John J. Manfreda, Administrator of the Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau (TTB), gave an excellent keynote address this morning, stressing an open dialog between the TTB and key industry stakeholders. They seem genuinely committed to listening to the industry to improve the ease of compliance with TTB regulations. If you have any questions or topics that you would like to get answers to while we are here, please feel free to leave a comment on this post or to drop us a private email at blog (at) shipcompliant (dot) com.
4 Responses to "TTB Expo 2008"
As more and more wineries are using mobile osmotic transport firms to come on to their bonded wineries to "de alc" wine in order to be able to keep the "estate" claim on the label and to save the transport of bulk wine back and forth to the "de alc" facilities, we're required to go through the entire application process for a full fledged distilled spirits plant, both with the TTB and the state ABC offices. All of this to have the mobile companies come in for a few days each time, three or four times a year.
I know you mainly deal with direct shipping issues, but thought I'd throw this out if someone wants to ask the question on our behalf about having an "abbreviated" or "limited use" DSP license and application process for this new situation.
Thanks for your efforts to keep us informed – even though when I get your email in my in box, it usually prompts the thought "WHAT NOW?"
Great news, I guess…..
We all know that the TTB is working with "key industry stakeholders", but it's in the best interest of large groups to keep the current systems in place. So what about the little guys who don't benefit from the same things that the big guys do? So my questions is: what is the TTB doing to ensure the success of smaller winieries and wine-centric businesses in the ever-growing DTC segment of the market?
Wineries using reverse osmosis (RO) units to remove alcohol from wine are required to qualify as a Distilled Spirits Plant (DSP) to conduct this operation on their premises. Indeed, as compliance consultants filing these applications for wineries, we understand and sympathize with the effort it takes to add these approvals to conduct this activity, which is often done infrequently.
In response to your post, we spoke today with the TTB Technical Advisor and a TTB attorney about the idea of a simplified process for wineries to secure approval for de-alcoholization of wines on the winery premises. On both the Federal and the State level, the use of RO equipment is considered to be distillation. While it may seem simple for TTB to amend the winery regulations to permit this process, the Federal laws governing the distilling of alcohol do not give TTB discretion to allow distilling on a winery premise. The law requires the establishment of a DSP either adjoining or alternating with the winery premises. Unfortunately, the law does not allow TTB to implement your suggestion.
The solution would be to have winery trade organizations request that Congress amend the Federal Alcohol Administration Act to allow this process on a winery premises without establishing a DSP. It is likely that the states would follow any change in Federal regulations on this matter.

Very interesting – Id never heard of a government body holding a trade show. Nice to hear that they are communicating with those with a vested interest in the industry.

Countries do compete on spending. The quality of transportation, public safety, all sorts of amenities. Imagine if Europe had it's relatively high level of taxes and US infrastructure and health system. it would then be thoroughly uncompetitive. But Europeans get something for their money. So it's tolerable.
Actually, conservatives in the USA have an extremely simple policy on the total tax collected. Whatever the current number may be, the right number is always less. It doesn't matter what growth was like during Clinton's term; taxes were too high then also.
A further reason that prevents migration from high tax to low tax jurisdictions is that tax payers consider not only the tax take and government spending, but also consider the nature of that spending. People are much more likely to accept higher taxes if they think the spend is efficient and effective, in other words, they feel they're getting value for their money.
Interestingly enough happiness and well being indexes are topped by relatively high tax countries, a further indication of what I described above.
If public spending is 40% of GDP, it is 39.99% too high.
Perhaps I exaggerate. But it is not far from the truth. The reason public spending remains high is that politicians are in power and they want to pay themselves and their cronies.
So, to answer the question, is it easier to cut spending or raise taxes? It is politically easier to raise taxes, but it is optimal to cut spending.

Hampshire eyes lower borrowing costs; repayment due over next 11 years
By Denise Moran For The Courier-News December 7, 2012 11:36AM
Updated: January 10, 2013 6:28AM
HAMPSHIRE — The village is jumping on the bandwagon, along with other local area municipalities and school districts, in trying to lower interest costs on money it has borrowed through bonds.
"Village staff has been working with Speer Financial Inc. (financial advisor) and Bernardi Securities (bond underwriter) on the proposed issuance of up to $2.75 million in refunding bonds to refund a number of outstanding debt instruments held by the village," said village Administrator Doug Maxeiner. "The purpose of the refunding is to capture savings from lower interest rates offered in the current bond market."
The board this week looked at refunding three sets of bonds that were purchased from 2003 to 2006. Interest rates at that time ranged from 4.5 to 5 percent, according to Daniel Forbes, vice president of Speer Financial. Current interest rates range from 2 to 2.75 percent.
"After the payment of all costs of issuance, the sale will result in a nominal debt service savings of $176,517.60 worth $167,364.48 on a present value basis or 6.96 percent of refunded principal," Forbes said.
The new bonds are scheduled to be paid back over the next 11 years.
"We hope this meets the village's goals," said Forbes. "The village administrator went through 10 times what a normal village administrator goes through with this work, and the village attorney had to review many documents."
In other business, the board, heard from Trustee George Brust about a Federal Emergency Management Agency cell phone alert system.
The wireless emergency alerts or WEAs let owners of enabled mobile devices receive text-like message alerts for imminent threats to safety, depending on the subscriber's geographical location, he said.
"This service works wherever a user goes and does not require prior knowledge of zip codes or advanced registration," he said. "This new communication system assures emergency alerts will not become congested in highly populated areas, which occurs with standard mobile voice and texting services, particularly in times of crisis."
Brust noted that a wireless customer from Hampshire who was visiting downtown New York would receive an alert if there was an active threat in the New York City area. However, while that subscriber is in New York City, he or she would not receive alerts targeted in Chicago.
"The (system) only broadcast three types of alerts, which are alerts issued by the president, alerts concerning life-threatening risks, and Amber alerts," Brust said.
Cell phone users should check with their provider on whether their phone is WEA ready.
According to the FEMA website, customers of participating wireless carriers with alert-capable phones will not need to sign up to receive the alerts and should automatically receive them in the event of an emergency, if they are located in, or travel to the affected geographic area. Wireless customers are not charged for the delivery of WEA.

I failed to comment on the terrible preview I saw of Treats, Friday before last. A terribly tired and sagging play was neither staged nor acted well. This was certainly not helped by the empty seats in the Garrick. Only the stalls and dress circle were open. This is yet another case of a second-rate revival that pollutes the West and End. I am surprised at the generally positive reviews that were posted last week. Perhaps the critics felt sorry for Bille Piper. Certainly, it is a contrast from the other recent stage debut of another young actor.
I saw the matinee preview of Dash Arts Midsummer Night's Dream, at the Roundhouse yesterday. I saw the UK premiere at the Swan as part of the festival there. I would highly advise anyone to see the show when it returns there in April-May for a 4 week run. The Roundhouse is totally unsuitable for this staging. The arena style layout is hindered by broken seating blocks, with a terrible amount of audience noise audible. The action is dwarfed by the venue and the acoustics are inferior compared to all regular theatres. The performance is as spectacular as ever.
King of Hearts at Hampstead is a mixed bag. As a modern and witty play, Alistair Beaton does deliver, and the cast are all terribly funny. The problem is that the content does address some contentious issues: Racism, sexism, Islamophobia etc. These are all touched on and the surface is never more than delicately grazed. This enables a happy ending, but I left feeling strangely short changed. The author tends to the same subject matter, and always in this distanced parodied fashion. Top marks for the cast and director, but perhaps the next Beaton play could offer more food for thought.

Are there a good computer programs one could use for learning No Limit Texas Hold'em? Many responses say that best way is to play with real oponents but I would like to learn without losing any money in the process
You can use some ICM-training programs, like: ICM Trainer - it can help you understand how to play late phase of a tournament (when to push/fold).
You can also use some Equity calculators - using those you can understand relative hand strenght in given circumstances. I recommend: Equilab
There are also many programs, which can help you analyze your game. Most of the software I'm thinking about here is designed to help you during the play (by displaying a HUD with your and your opponents stats), but you can also use them to review your previous games (i.e. to find leaks). Examples here would be: Poker Tracker and Holdem Manager.
Even if you read all books all strategies ,you will not play that way. you need some practice. play for some cent blinds and learn from it. best programm to learn poker is : pokerstars.exe
I played some years and when i stop for some time and start again i sometimes still do stupid mistakes. It's simple and easy, you need practice to stay good.
"programms" do not exist. afaik.
but you can register at pokerstrategy.com and even win something for free i guess :)

NewsBass Directs Shakespeare's "The Tempest"
MARLBORO, VT On March 8, 9, and 10, at 8 p.m., Marlboro College presents William Shakespeares "The Tempest," directed by Eric Bass and performed by fifteen Marlboro students. The play is performed as a tea party, hosted by Dante Gabriel Rossetti and his Pre-Raphaelite brotherhood, for the benefit of special guest Charles Darwin.
"One of Shakespeares last and most beautiful comedies, 'The Tempest' is performed here as a dialogue with the man most often associated with the survival of the fittest," says Bass, who teaches theater at Marlboro. Puppets arise out of a Victorian tea table to tell the tale.
The Tempest tells the tale of a shipwrecked crew landing on an island inhabited by Prospero, a sorceror, Miranda, Prosperos daughter. Various fairies and magical creatures enslaved by Prospero also inhabit the island. "The Tempest" has commonly been interpreted as a protest against colonialism, or as a fairy romp akin to Shakespeare's "A Midsummer Nights Dream."
However, the play can also be used to demonstrate the conflict between science and religion that typified the Victorian age in England. Darwin, who proposed the theory of evolution, and the Pre-Raphaelites, who sought to revive the style and spirit of Italian painting before Raphael, also illustrate this conflict of the Victorian age. Bass brings the two together in this production to illuminate their conflict.
The Marlboro student cast includes Morgan Eckert, Heather Carter, Damon Jespersen, Julia Catherine Slone, Priya Campbell, Laura Isabella, Shura Baryshnikov, Mat Doyle, Emily Graves, Kristen Olsson, Tim Collins, Jeremy Kacik, Hesse Phillips, Emily Downs and Alex Lehmen. The Marlboro Chorus, under the direction of Susan Klein, will provide accompaniment, along with music composed by Brattleboros Paul Dedell.
Bass is an internationally acclaimed theater artist who is artistic director of Putney, Vermont's Sandglass Theater. Bass will also be directing this summer's first ever Sandglass at Marlboro Summer Theater Institute, an intensive training in puppet theater. For more information please call (802) 257-4333 or check out the college online at www.marlboro.edu.

Health & Safety:
The safety and security on campus in pretty good in my view. The police & public safety is always around, but is mostly there for when we need them the most. They are not overbearing nor are they utterly strict towards students. Campus crimes on our campus are very uncommon if we have any at all, there have only been 2 crimes committed that I have been aware of this semester. Crimes here are rare, which is good. Safety on our campus is a main focus and concern for all security measures, safety measures and police as well. I feel very safe when I am alone on campus. I have never felt threatened, nor have a I ever felt uncomfortable being alone. I think we have a very safe campus and I am glad we have such a great safety concern.
Drug Safety:
The drug scene at our school is honestly not that bad. There are very rare occurrences when I hear of stories involve drugs. The students here are not very open to drugs and are not pressured into drugs either. The alcohol visibility is somewhat average. There are parties every now and then, but they are always busted by the police. Most students who take part in drinking are of age however. The students who are underage and drink are usually the first students to drop out or fail out. The peer pressure here is very slim to none actually, everyone here respects the decisions of students which is very respectful. Overall, the drugs and alcohol scene at our campus are very small and simple.
Campus Dining:
The dining options for my campus are average in my opinion. The dining halls are relatively close due to location, and are usually open at reasonable times for students. The varieties and values for students is average or above average. There is always varieties for students eating options and there is always good value with the food that is served. The best place on campus to eat is at the University Center, there is Chic-Fil-A offered on our meal plans, and also there are good hamburgers, and pizza joints as well. The meal plan options for students is also varied which is based on money and quantity of food you want to receive. The food on campus overall is average but is also varied.
In regards to internships, I have not been involved in one. Mainly because I am not qualified yet as a student to register or apply for internships. I am very interested in internships and plan to apply for them when I am eligible.
The program I am currently under is amazing. I can't necessarily say if I would do it all over again mainly because this is my first year in the kinesiology program at ASU. My career goals are to pursue a career in Physical Therapy and to hopefully work under a specialized knee surgeon or own my own practice. The only concerns I have with finding a job are the requirements and prerequisites. Overall, I am happy with the program I am in and hope to stay that way.
The diversity on campus is average I believe. Most students do carry a diverse range of race, religion, and moral diversities. Which is normal for a campus. The students here are very accepting of different races, religions, political beliefs and ethnical diversities. The only acceptance issue of most students here is sexual orientations of students, most students are very accepting but there are a handful of students who can be discriminant. But that is what is expected of college campuses, not all students will be accepted in certain social standings or groups, but no matter what there will always be groups who are accepting and understanding which is one reason why I enjoy going to this school.
The local weather on my campus is average to moderate. We do not receive rain that often so it really isn't an issue for us. When it does rain, every students carries an umbrella on hand which is always convenient. The weather overall I would say isn't bad at all, it's just very calm and normal.
Guys & Girls:
The guys and girls at our school are very broad and varied. Which is a great thing. The interests of guys and girls is relatively broad, almost everyone is interested in the same things if not similar things. Most students here dress relatively normal, there are a select few students who choose to make outgoing fashion statements, but that's what college is about, expressing yourself. The social life of guys and girls is also very excellent, all of the students here are very friendly and very nice. We are a very social community and a very socially active campus. The relationships between guys and girls is also in good ratings as well, most relationships are very laid back and normal. Everyone accepts everyone here, there are different groups of people and social standings, but at the end of the day the guys and girls here are overall wonderful.
My current major is such a great opportunity for me. I am learning so much about myself, the body, and what I want to do with my degree. The curriculum is very tedious and time consuming, but it is all 100% worth it. I am very picky about the presentation about my homework and such so the strictness of the curriculum is okay. The unique aspects of my major are also really great as well. Not only are we open to so many varied opportunities in the medical field, but we are also unique individuals ourselves which allows us to develop our career as we go throughout college. The workload is minimum for me, I do believe the workload will increase over each semester. The work however, is sometimes very hard but it is also interesting and intriguing. All in all I am happy with my major of choice and I plan to keep my major.
The academics offered at my school are great. The professors are very good at teaching their courses and are very helpful. They are always willing to help out with homework, essays, etc. They are also very concerned with the grades and outcomes for each student. The curriculum for the students is also very great, as stated above. The registration process is also very easy and simple. Study options and study areas for our academics is very excellent too. Study options are open to all students for almost all courses, they are open at very covenant times for students and not only that but they are helpful as well. The study areas are also varied and optional, which is good for all students. The academics at my school are great and I am glad I chose to come to school here.
Campus Housing:
I love living on campus! The dorm rooms I currently live in are great. They are spacious, clean, safe, and in a relatively close location to my classes. The social atmosphere is also really good as well, we are constantly being involved in dorm room get togethers, and other social events that our residential advisor designs. The buildings are all fairly new and are all well kept up with cleanliness. The perks of living on campus are not only the memories and friendships you develop, but also the independence you learn. You learn how to live on your own, provide for your own, and how to take care of yourself. I am very happy with where I live and hope to stay here for another year.
The parking situation at our college is not even really a situation, our parking is very convenient and open. The parking permits are at an average cost, which is great for students. Parking availability is also great, there is never a time when I cannot find a parking spot. Our parking enforcements are somewhat strict, we are required to park in whatever parking zone we are given. Overall I think the parking situation at our campus is perfectly fine.
The financial aid at ASU is a very frustration and irritating process. Most of the advisors do not provide the required amount of help for students as they should. I know this from personal experience, I have been dealing with financial aid since the first month. I am constantly being reminded of tuition fees I owe that I was never aware of or told by an advisor. I think our financial aid needs a new system or new employees, because they do not know how to handle money situations. I have had a academic hold on my registration due to loan and financial aid issues due to the financial aid office, which has causes me to fall behind on my classes.
Off-Campus Housing:
I do not live off campus at this point in time, but I do have family and friends that do. Almost all of the apartment complexes in the area near the school are all for college students. Rent is average which is good for students, the quality of the apartments are good, and the variety and room for creativeness is wonderful. All students love the off campus living communities. All in all our off campus living is by far a very safe and humble environment for college students.
All of the campus computers, printers, network reliability and speed, and wifi are very excellent. There are very rare occurrences when our Wifi is down, or the computers are down. However, technology always finds a way to inform the students if there are any Wifi problems, or if there are updates and such. The need for a personal computer is am essential for college, reasons being that certain professors require computers, students take notes and labs with their computers, and all in all for homework and essays. Overall I would say our computer and technology system is one of r best around.
I love the weather here! It's not too cold, it's not too hot.
I can walk all over campus with ease. Now that I have a car, I only need to drive to the store for essentials.
Health & Safety:
If there was to be an accident, It would be the first time I see any action from the campus police and the student health care.
After figuring out what documentations were missing and finally turning everything in i received my financial aid. While it did not help much at all, it was still some sort of aid.
Off-Campus Dining:
The off-campus dining options are good if you have the money to go. Living on the "college life" budget can limit the number of outings to off-campus dining.
Local Atmosphere:
The town of San Angelo is great if you have a way of getting around. Without transportation it is easy to seem "stuck" on campus.
For pre-med (biology) majors, it is recommended to attend classes about 17 hours per week. It is very time consuming.
The course work can be a little overwhelming, but it becomes easier as you get accustomed to the way the professor teaches the course.
Off-Campus Housing:
I do not know much about the off-campus housing because you much be at least a sophomore in college or have a number of completed hours in order to live off-campus.
I do not understand what this question is asking.

In addition to a standard choice of majors, ASU offers many programs throughout the semester for entertainment, and there is a club for everyone if a student does some digging.

A new Wisconsin Historical Society website is coming mid-May 2014! See a preview >>
Given below are 15 letters written by Daniel Densmore (1833-1915) and members of his family between 1862 and 1865. Densmore was born in New York, came to Wisconsin with his parents in 1847. They lived in Emerald Grove, near Janesville, until 1857 when they moved to Redwing, Minn. In Aug. 1862, Daniel Densmore helped recruit Co. G of the 3rd Minnesota Infantry at Redwing. This unit was first sent to help suppress the Sioux Uprising of 1862 before going south in January 1863 to fight in the lower Mississippi campaigns. Daniel Densmore was mustered out in 1864 but re-enlisted in order to command the 68th Regiment of U.S. Colored Troops until Sept. 1865.
These letters give vivid first-hand descriptions of the Sioux Uprising, conditions at Benton Barracks in St. Louis, the May 1864 Sanitary Fair held there, and conditions in the South during the final months of the war. They contain much reflection on race relations, since both Daniel and his brother Benjamin recruited and commanded African-American soldiers in the South. Although a few of the letters shown here have typed transcripts, most do not.

Here's a not-so-festive fact about Cyber Monday: Getting a customer-service rep on the phone can make you feel like a Scrooge.
It's not as miserable as standing for hours outside a big box store. But according to StellaService, which analyzes customer service, last year on Cyber Monday it took more than seven minutes on average for callers to reach a live person on the phone. Average call hold times are 139 percent higher than normal on Cyber Monday, StellaService reports.
And getting someone to respond to your email isn't much easier. In its Cyber Monday survey of top retailers, only four responded to 100 percent of the emails sent to them within 24 hours (HPShopping.com; Toys 'R' Us; Amazon.com and Overstock.com), according to StellaService.
But some companies are making sure they provide quick customer service on Cyber Monday. Here's StellaService's list of top 10 quickest-responding retailers from last year, with the number of minutes and seconds it took them on average to answer customer inquiries. Not surprisingly, Nordstrom tops the list.

Ground-Breaking Web Sharing Capabilities Will Enhance the Client Experience
CONSHOHOCKEN, Pa., Jan. 16, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- eMoney Advisor ("eMoney"), a leading provider of advanced wealth and goal-planning solutions for financial advisors, has announced a strategic partnership with Firefly, an innovator in seamless web-sharing capabilities.
Co-browsing is gaining momentum in customer support and sales organizations, and now eMoney and Firefly are leading the charge for financial services. Firefly's sharing does not call for plug-ins that traditional screen-sharing applications like GoToMeeting™ and WebEx™ require. With this integration, advisors can pull up their eMoney platform, call their client and conduct an impromptu interactive planning session. During the co-browsing session, clients view their eMoney data in "use only" mode, a feature which gives clients confidence that their data remain secure.
"What this means is that advisors can easily 'present' to clients anytime, anywhere. They no longer have to be sitting across the table from a client in order to have an interactive planning session," explains Edmond Walters, eMoney Founder and Chief Executive Officer. "This is just one more way eMoney can remove the communication barriers between advisors and clients," he adds.
"The top reason clients leave advisors is lack of service," says Firefly co-founder Dan Shipper. "With Firefly's co-browsing technology, eMoney users can provide the high-touch personal experience clients have come to expect. Co-browsing will be standard practice over the next coming years, so once again eMoney users will be ahead of the curve," he concludes.

For a Pokemon that spends the majority of its life balancing on the tip of its head, Hitmontop is no pushover. This plucky little Fighting-type takes its place in UU through the combination of its bulk, Intimidate, and Rapid Spin. One of the best utility checks in the tier, Hitmontop is one of the few Pokemon that can stop Choice Scarf Heracross from sweeping through a team and still perform its other duties. However, the large number of offensive Ghost-types in UU makes it difficult for Hitmontop to use Rapid Spin if it wants to stay in one piece. Add to that the ubiquitous Flying- and Psychic-types in the tier and Hitmontop really has its work cut out for it. Hitmontop also proves itself something of a liability on more offensive teams, and cannot be haphazardly thrown onto a team despite its role as a supporting Pokemon. Despite these limitations, Hitmontop is very good at what it does.
Hitmontop's only real niche in UU is that of a bulky Rapid Spin user, and it performs its job admirably. Between Hitmontop's physical bulk, Intimidate, and its Fighting typing, it becomes capable of spinning against a large portion of the metagame. Foresight combines with Rapid Spin to make it impossible to stop Hitmontop from spinning unless your opponent is packing two Ghost-types. Unfortunately, if your opponent lacks a Ghost-type, it becomes a wasted moveslot instead. If you'd rather not take that risk, Toxic is available as a more passive option. It's good for wearing down the bulkier Ghost-types, such as Cofagrigus and Sableye, if you can predict the switch-in, and most of Hitmontop's checks and counters also hate being badly poisoned. Sucker Punch and Stone Edge are Hitmontop's coverage options. Sucker Punch compliments Hitmontop's STAB and is good for picking off weakened enemies, while Stone Edge gives Hitmontop a fighting chance (no pun intended) against Chandelure and Froslass. It also gives it a weapon against Flying-types, like Zapdos and Crobat, which is greatly appreciated. Close Combat rounds out the moveset as Hitmontop's most reliable STAB move; it has a good combination of high power and low risk, and the stat drops are easily mitigated both by Intimidate and timely switching.Team Options & Additional Comments >>>
Other Options
Sadly, Hitmontop is very limited in terms of what it can do in UU. The old standby TechniTop has fallen to the wayside, as too many Pokemon like Zapdos, Yanmega, and Cofagrigus can freely switch into Hitmontop's moves and deal heavy damage both to it and the rest of your team. A Bulk Up set might seem like a good idea, but it is outclassed by other Bulk Up or Curse users such as Scrafty and Snorlax, and it also lacks both the power and the bulk to do its job without excessive support. The rest of Hitmontop's movepool also has a few options that have not yet been mentioned, but they are sorely outclassed. Brick Break and Triple Kick lack the power to deal effective damage, and Triple Kick is also inconsistent in terms of both damage output and accuracy. Earthquake or Technician Bulldoze might seem like good ideas for hitting Nidoqueen and Nidoking while retaining coverage against Chandelure, but they have redundant coverage with Hitmontop's STAB moves. Finally, Counter is an acceptable move if you don't mind letting Hitmontop take a few hits. It has decent surprise value, but it is neither reliable nor recommended.
Checks and Counters
Hitmontop has a lot of Pokemon that can counter it under the right circumstances, but most of them must beware of at least one move from Hitmontop. Mew is one of the few exceptions to this rule; any set with Heal Bell or a Lum Berry can switch into and destroy Hitmontop with near impunity. Togekiss can somewhat claim the same for Heal Bell sets, but less bulky sets must beware of switching into Stone Edge. Nidoqueen and Nidoking both run roughshod over Hitmontop; it is hapless to do anything against them one-on-one. Even eliminating Stealth Rock is beyond it when faced with the offensive power of the royal pains. Cofagrigus, Slowbro, Gallade, and Sableye all hate Toxic, but otherwise laugh at anything Hitmontop could do and easily set up on it. Zapdos can check Hitmontop, but it hates both Stone Edge and Toxic, particularly if it is running an offensive set. Similarly, bulky Roserade can act as a solid check to Hitmontop, but repeated switch-ins can wear it down, as Close Combat and Stone Edge deal around 35% damage. Tricking a Choice item to Hitmontop cuts down on its effectiveness, but can also create more of a problem if Hitmontop manages to make use of the boost it gives. Ultimately, Hitmontop isn't the problem so much as the support it provides. Either have something that spits on everything it can do or take it out quickly, else you will regret it for the entirety of the match.

You're leaving Wedding Paper Divas to see the Deal of the Day at our parent site, Tiny Prints.
You won't be able to dismiss this by usual means (escape or click button), but you can close it programatically based on user choices or actions.
"I ordered this magnet for our destination wedding. I fell in love with it when I first saw it on the website and after searching for others, none came even close to this one! We received many compliments from our guests, highly recommend it. The shipping was fast and efficient. The picture quality is good, could be better, but we loved it anyway! It would be great if they had matching invites, announcements, and thank you cards."
"Every thing was absolutely perfect about this save the date! I loved the font and the color options. All of our friends and family adored the save the date!"
"This Save the Date was a perfect fit for Megan & Carlos's needs, colors (grn/brn) fit the photo layout "Woodland" theme. Perfect small/postcard size made it affordable for postage. Only thing I may have changed was the paper selection and a matte rather than gloss finish-but then the cost would have gone up and this fit in to the budget :-}"
"We ordered these save the dates because we wanted a sophisticated picture save the date magnet. Everyone absolutely loved it! Shipping was quick and couldn't have been happier. Love wedding paper divas"
"I was super happy with my save the dates. I really wanted a picture on the back and front and this was the perfect design for that. I went with the square edges and their regular signature paper. I was happy with the quality and print job especially given the price. I would totally recommend this design and website."

Catch the Celtic Sounds of Boys of the Lough at the Clark on March 3
For Immediate Release
February 16, 2007
The lively sounds of Celtic music will fill the Sterling and Francine Clark Art Institute's auditorium with a concert by Boys of the Lough on Saturday, March 3. Enjoy the technical brilliance and integrity of Boys of the Lough's performance of Irish and Scottish music as it combines with a ready wit and sense of fun to enliven their onstage performance. Their original arrangements and dynamic interactions between the two major strands of the Celtic are always bright and fresh earning them a unique position of respect in the world of traditional music. The concert will be held at 8 pm; tickets are $24 ($20 for members) and may be reserved by calling 413-458-0524 or purchased at the museum shop.
In December 2006, the Boys of the Lough performed on National Public Radio's "Prairie Home Companion." Enormously popular and well-respected, The Boston Globe called them "…musically splendid…legends."
The music of Boys of the Lough ranges widely through the instrumental and vocal traditions of Ireland, Scotland, Shetland and North America. Although sometimes melodically complex and difficult to play, the music remains at all times easily accessible to the listener through the compelling dance rhythms that give it such life. Contrast this with evocative slow airs and beautifully structured songs, some in the Irish language, add the range of tone colors available from the band's acoustic instruments, and it is easy to understand the great appeal of their lively performances.
The Celtic supergroup features All-Ireland champion Cathal McConnell on flute, whistles and vocals; Dave Richardsonon concertina, mandolin, button accordion and cittern; Brendan Begleyon button accordion, melodeon, and vocals; Malcolm Stitt on guitar, bouzouki and Highland pipe; and Fiddler of the Year Kevin Hendersonon fiddle.
The Clark is located at 225 South Street in Williamstown. The galleries are open Tuesday through Sunday from 10 am to 5 pm (daily in July and August). Admission is free November through May. Admission June 1 through October 31 is $12.50 for adults, free for children 18 and younger, members, and students with valid ID. For more information, call 413-458-2303 or visit www.clarkart.edu.

Who is the hottie?
Russian man - idiot. Russian woman - quite hot.
No wonder there are so many Russian brides coming to the United States.
This sign sits outside of the Hillside Public Library in New Jersey. Can the person who stole the library's Swimsuit Issue please bring it back? I understand it's hard to part with the issue, but if you can prove you're the person who took the magazine, I will mail you another copy if you return it.
Hot Clicks has posted a million of these, but this one is one of the best. Rangers shortstop Elvis Andrus has missed a spring training game because he has some "sensitivity" in his bicep after getting a tattoo.
We posted a "Call of the Day" in today's A.M. Hot Clicks, but that was more like a gaffe. This gem from Georgetown's double overtime win over Connecticut last night is truly a classic call.
Australian TV personality Nikee Sawyer gets today's LLOD honors.
Six college basketball teams will wear these beautiful monstrosities when conference tournament play begins.
Here is Reds outfielder Jay Bruce pulled a solid prank on one of MLB's Fan Cave contestants.
An FYI for you: I'm taking tomorrow off and we will have two new Hot Clicks writers for you. Chris Sesno (@cwsesno) is going to handle Friday's A.M. Hot Clicks and Tom Mantzouranis (@themantz) is going to take care of P.M. Hot Clicks. They're both very fine gentleman (although Sesno never watched The Sopranos when it was on and Mantz hates Chinese food, but nobody is perfect) and you will be left in excellent hands. Be nice to them and send them link submissions via Twitter.
This should actually be called the "Juggling/Solving a Rubik's Cube Video Of The Day."
This comes from a reality show in Russia. You would think everyone knows how to fill a kettle, but you'd be wrong.

Have A Merrier Christmas for Less
NEW YORK ( MainStreet) -- A decade ago we were broke.
We had economized in every way we could. We were depending on my wife's family to pay important bills. Since the burst of the dot-com bubble, I was making $0.
"Once I had a web site, made it run, made it race against time. Once I had a web site, now it's done, brother can you spare a dime? " I had sung that as a joke a few years before. It had lost its irony.
A close friend, now passed, came through town that year on what he called his "shrinking waterhole tour," spending his own money to beg for work from those editors he deemed prospects. I wished I could go on one, but I had kids and didn't feel I could afford it.
Then, like one last straw on the donkey's back carrying Mary to Bethlehem, came Christmas.
Christmas is a time for celebration but it's also a time of obligation. Americans are expected to shower family and friends with...something. And, after including siblings, nieces, nephews and cousins, we had a fairly large family.
Then my dear wife hit upon a solution. We bought a bunch of wall calendars, and she carefully wrote each relative's name and the year he or she was born, under his or her birth date. She did this dozens of times. Then we mailed them out.
Best Christmas ever! Even after our financial condition improved, we were asked to repeat the calendar trick. It's a present that grew into legend wherever members of our family gather.
The point is that real emotion and care can easily trump money, especially when you're talking about adult friends and relatives.
An intimate Christmas party, with home-cooked food, will usually be far more memorable than anything at a fancy restaurant. Engaging those cute kids of yours to create family presents will draw more goodwill than any fancy toy.
It's said that time is money, and money is time. When you lack money, spend the time to learn more about who you're giving to, and add something of yourself to everything you give.
Here are some other ideas for saving your Christmas club that really work:
- A creative Christmas letter. One of our family friends turned his letter into an "annual report" on his "company," by which he meant his family. We've watched his children grow to adulthood and feel as close to them as to our own. (Except they managed to find jobs.)
- Instead of giving $20 each to a dozen relatives, why not get together with other relatives to do one special thing? If someone is in nursing care, and you all gather around them with a big screen for the home, that's a big deal. Sharing the burden can bring a soldier relative home for the holidays.
- Giving time and money to a local charity especially time and making that the heart of a heartfelt Christmas letter teaches your kids a valuable lesson and can keep spirits high no matter how bad your year was.
- Secret Santa is designed to be a money-saver. But instead of buying a lot of small gifts get together with your family on one great gift for one special person. You'll save money and probably get something you really like in return.
- Shop year-round. When you find a great bargain, something you can't personally use, buy it. Put it away and when it's time to do your Christmas list, wrap it up for someone special. It's the "reverse lay-away."
- Try high-end yard sales. Sites like EstatesSales.Net and EstateSales.Org offer listings and e-mails. Some folks even pre-shop the sales and send out e-mails with pictures of the best stuff. Christmas lets you turn your hobby into something almost profitable.
A little thought, a little planning and a little care for the emotional needs of Christmas will go a lot further than money. And if you're short on the latter, making sure you invest in the former will also make this Christmas happier for you.

Excerpts from 2005 North African Voices
Excerpts from 2005 North African Voices
An Ancient and Mosaic Land by Nabil Boudraa
We have purposely chosen the title "North African Voices" to represent, as accurately as possible, the diversity of North Africa, a region which stretches from Egypt to the Canary Islands, and from the Mediterranean shores to the desert plains of the Sahara
This volume certainly does not constitute an anthology of North African poetry, but is rather a doorway to this rich culture which, unfortunately, still remain opaque and misunderstood today. Our purpose is then to provide a better understanding of this complex region and place the multiple layers of North African colonization into a patchwork that transcends nationalism and present-day political agendas. To that end, this literary and cultural sampling seeks to eschew the regimented discourses and polemics of political factions in order to validate the ancestral and ongoing personalities of North Africa.
Since time immemorial, this Afro-Mediterranean land has been inhabited by the indigenous people known as Imazighen[1]. These Berber populations across northern Africa have known a series of invasions and occupations that date back thousands of years, including those of the Phoenicians, the Romans, the Vandals, the Byzantines, the Arabs, the Spanish, the Turks, and the French. Despite the ceaseless efforts by each colonizer to erase and eradicate this indigenous culture, the latter not only survived but also constituted the foundation on which the other cultural layers were added. In addition, North Africa has also benefited from centuries-long contact with the Andalusian culture in the north and the sub-Saharan civilizations in the south. However, seen from a cultural perspective, this led to an extremely rich society with an interesting olio of languages, traditions, customs, tastes, etc. That is why we only hope that this volume will shed some light on the understanding of this multi-ethnic and multi-faceted place.
Needless to say, poetry provides a space where coexistence and harmony become the rule rather than a discrepancy. To Topos literally means "the place" in Greek. This volume of poetry could then be "the place" where all the dominated and subaltern North African cultures (from the Copts of Egypt to the nomadic Tuaregs of the Sahara) can have a voice, thus claiming their dignity and sharing their heritage, without any complex, resentment, or ressentiment.
The reader has only to look at the number of scripts used in this issue to understand the plurality of experience in North Africa. First, there is the ancient script, Tifinagh (see poem on page 30), which is so old that even linguists are still trying to trace it back to its original source. Then, there is the neo-Tifinagh, a more modern transcription of the Berber language (with Latin characters). Other scripts include Arabic, French, and English.
It is also very important in this context to note that the indigenous populations of North Africa have long used their conquerors' languages to write about their own culture. Among the most celebrated authors are Saint Augustine (Latin), Ibn Khaldun (Arabic), Kateb Yacine and Mohamed Dib (French). The thoughts, the images and the sensations remain, however, autochthonous and original. Most of the poems in this collection follow the same trend. Although they are written in different languages, their substance and core remain North African. For this reason, I urge the reader to look through the language layer in order to reach deeper into the soul of these poems.
One important thing about North African literature and culture remains to be clarified. It is true that North African culture is mostly oral. This "orature" is part of a lifestyle, which is not reserved solely to a certain educated elite, but includes every group in the community. It is mostly the common people who preserve the culture, who keep it alive, and who connect it to daily life. The reader must be aware that some of these poems are written by people who do not necessarily have college degrees or advanced schooling but who certainly possess an extremely rich culture and a worthy experience.
In this volume, the reader will be inspired by a variety of poems on universal themes such as love, injustice, nature, identity, exile, liberty, etc. Others however take on specific and local concerns (praise for one's language or place, political struggle, nostalgia for a specific past, etc.).
We, the editors, have tried our best to keep the beauty of the images and metaphors of the original poems, but it is not an easy task to translate Berber poems, or any poetry for that matter. I am indebted to my friend, Cherif Khazem, for his contribution and for his help with the translation of some poems. Our conversations about poetry and about this special issue also proved to be of great help.
I hope you will enjoy the pieces in this mosaic and that this poetic journey will provide a better understanding of the cultural complexity of this terra africana.
[1] The original name of the Berber people, which means free men. Some activists prefer this name, as the word "Berber" is pejorative. It was derived from the term « barbari » that the Romans gave to the people they conquered.

Bring me mother, bring me mother water from the spring of joy
one sip helps to forget the remorse
of hearts that have been at the end of the sea
that have flown into one river
in a reddish place
in red earth, coloured by blood
There trees have grown with broken roots
next to them, flowers always closed
In this place the sun isn't very far
It's always there, without the shade it burns everything
the shade runs from itself
always running with fear next to it
translated from the Berber by the author
Alger/Algiers by Amari Hamadene
Tout ce qui reste d'Alger n'est que le ciel –
cet indélébile indigo, comme si Leila avait ramené avec elle
le bleu de Thèbes et a construit un dôme pour la ville avec sa teinture:
Ce n'est pas Alger, étendue là en face de nous
en gros morceaux de roc brun abattu par la mer endormie.
La Lactescente et Vermeille Alger que Leila a connue
sous l'air de ce panthéon de saphir-voûté - s'en est allée;
Elle est quelque part ailleurs - un poème. De part en part,
les Français ont bonifié son sol avec du sel.
Rien n'est vraiment resté d'Alger après la France.
Mais Alger est plus que la ville que Scipio a pleurée;
Elle est la chanson bleue que Leila a peinte là-dessus.
Des notes, dont le matériau ne peut jamais être démantelé
où ces blocs bruns sont encore érigés avec des mots en une autre Alger –
une Autre que nous avons lue.
Alors, oublie les collines là-en bas; les mots ont rendu la déchue cité
si vivante que, même morte, Leila est plus vivante que je ne le suis.
Elle est si près de nous, que même suspendue sur un échafaudage en air
continue de croquer la seule Casbah dont nous avons besoin.
All that is left of Algiers is only the sky –
this indelible indigo, as if Leila had brought back with her
the blue of Thebes and built a dome for the city with her dye:
It is not Algiers spread out there in front of us
in large pieces of brown rock worn down by the sleeping sea.
The Milky and Vermilion Algiers that Leila knew
beneath the air of this vaulted saphire pantheon – has left;
The city is elsewhere – a poem. From top to bottom
the French have improved its soil with salt.
Nothing really remained of Algiers after France.
But Algiers is more than the city that Scipio lamented;
She is the blue song that Leila painted over her.
Notes made of a material which can not be dismantled
where these brown blocks are still transformed with words into another Algiers –
an Other that we have read.
So, forget the hill down there; the words have made the deposed city
so lively that, even dead, Leila is more alive than I am.
She is so close to us, that even suspended on a scaffolding in the air
continues to sketch the only Casbah that we will need.
