Since launching in 2012, Rancho Cordova craft brewery American River Brewing Company (ARBC) has won numerous awards for its beers, but none more so than its flagship brew, Coloma Brown American Ale.
For the second year in a row, Coloma Brown won first place in the Commercial Craft Brewing competition for the American Ale category at the California State Fair. Hosted by the Northern California Brewer's Guild, the competition annually draws in excess of one thousand entries from more than three hundred craft breweries across the state.
The win for Coloma Brown comes on the heels of the California Small Business of the Year award for ARBC this past May.
California is a hotbed of the craft brewing industry. Since 2010 the number of craft breweries in the state has more than doubled to nearly 700. With such an immense amount of competition, ARBC founder David Mathis is justifiably pleased with the back-to-back win.
"With so many worthy competitors also brewing at such a high level, this win really validates all the hard work we've put into making truly great beer," Mathis stated. "Plus, since this is our flagship beer, it means even more."
ARBC partner and Head Brewer, Andy Armstrong, agrees that the effort was worth the result. "We spent a great deal of time perfecting the recipe for Coloma Brown," he said, "and that was no easy process. Getting recognition like this from a panel of expert judges two years running demonstrates that we've gotten it as close to perfection as it can be."
Following a recent trend among craft breweries, ARBC has begun canning some of its brews and Coloma Brown may be added to the canning lineup. "So far we have our Lawn Jockey Session IPA, Fire Break Red Ale and Capitol Copper Amber Ale ready to begin canning," Mathis noted, "It would be fantastic if we were to include Coloma Brown as well."
American River Brewing Company is located at 11151 Trade Center Drive in Rancho Cordova. For more information and a complete list of awards, please visit their website at www.americanriverbrewco.com.
Sacramento Suburban Water District (SSWD) is asking its customers to keep up the great work this summer and voluntarily reduce their water use by 10 percent and to follow District's recommended watering day schedule.
"Our customers did a fantastic job conserving water during the drought emergency, and reduced water use by nearly 30 percent from June 2015 to February 2016,"" said Greg Bundesen, SSWD Water Conservation Supervisor. "We're now asking them to continue their outstanding efforts by limiting landscape watering during the summer when water use is at its highest."
The District is asking customers who have addresses that end in an even number (0,2,4,6,8) to water on Wednesday, Friday and Sunday and those with addresses that end in an odd number (1,3,5,7,9) to run their sprinklers on Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday. Watering is only allowed before noon or after 8 p.m. through the end of September.
SSWD also has many rebates available for its customers to make conserving water even easier. Rebates are available for water-efficient sprinkler heads, drip irrigation systems, pool covers and WaterSense-labeled weather-based irrigation controllers. Weather-based irrigation controllers act like a thermostat for a sprinkler system, and use local weather and landscape conditions to run the sprinklers instead of running according to a preprogrammed schedule.
Customers who install drip irrigation systems and register their WaterSense-labeled weather-based irrigation controllers with SSWD will not be subject to future watering restrictions. Complete details and rebate applications are available on www.sswd.org.
Raley's Family of Fine Stores has announced its decision to eliminate certain Raley's private label brand soda to advance their vision of health and wellness. This includes all flavors containing high-fructose corn syrup and artificial colors and flavors, including diet soda varieties.
"This is a bold first step towards improving our private label options for our customers," said Kevin Curry, Raley's Senior Vice President, Merchandising & Supply Chain. "Where we have control over our product lines, we want to offer products that reflect our ongoing vision to infuse life with health and happiness. Essentially, we want to make it easier for our customers to make healthier choices."
A number of studies conducted over the past few decades suggest that consumption of high-fructose corn syrup is connected with health concerns, including a significant risk of weight gain and obesity, an increased risk of developing Type-2 Diabetes, hypertension and elevated "bad" cholesterol levels and liver damage. Raley's vision is to infuse life with health and wellness. The company strives to educate customers and provide wholesome Raley's brand options.
Raley's has discontinued production of private label soda with high-fructose corn syrup and artificial colors and flavors and will phase-out remaining inventory over the next two-weeks. All Raley's private label soda with high-fructose corn syrup and artificial colors and flavors will be out of stock by August 1st.
In another first step in providing healthier options to customers, Raley's eliminated tobacco in 2015. For more information, visit www.raleys.com.

Nearly 100 community members from across Sacramento witnessed Women's Empowerment graduate 27 formerly homeless women from the comprehensive eight-week job-readiness program at the end of June. The graduates each shared their stories of their rise from homelessness, some through poetry, some through song and some through prose – all wearing tiaras to match their chosen theme "Queens Uplift Queens."
"I want to talk to the queens," sang Derkisha Wofford, a graduate. "Whatever you set your heart to, just believe. Don't give up on yourself. I love you all."
From graduates' mentors, families and children, to organization supporters, graduation attendees heard each graduate's story and future plans. Each woman accepted a certificate of achievement, received a new handbag filled with a day planner and other items designed to help her succeed, and enjoyed a reception, all sponsored by the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in Carmichael.
"Each of our 27 graduates has made incredible strides in just eight weeks," said Lisa Culp, executive director of Women's Empowerment. "Though each woman's story of homelessness is as unique as her fingerprint, they all joined together to create a sisterhood that helped them rise from poverty to self-reliance. Their value is priceless and their potential is limitless."
Celebrating its 15th anniversary this year, Women's Empowerment was recently featured on NBC's TODAY Show and CNN's Impact Your World for offering the most comprehensive job-readiness program in the Sacramento area designed specifically for women who are homeless and their children. The 2014 Organization of the Year has graduated 1,349 homeless women and their 3,500 children. Last year, 93 percent of graduates found homes and 83 percent found jobs or enrolled in school or training. The program combines self-esteem courses, job training, health classes and support services to help homeless women across diverse ages, races and cultures. Women's Empowerment is funded solely through private donations from the community. To donate online: www.womens-empowerment.org.
Congressman Ami Bera, M.D. (CA-7) announced last week that his bipartisan legislation to fund prescription drug disposal across the country, the Dispose Responsibly Of Pills (DROP) Act, has passed the House toady 407-6 as part of the Comprehensive Opioid Reduction Act of 2016. The bill will move on to the Senate and then be signed into law. Congressman Bera first introduced this bill in May 2015 and has been working across the aisle with colleagues like Dr. Phil Roe (TN-1) to enact a solution to curb opioid abuse.
Research shows that more than half of nonmedical users of prescription medications got them from people they know. Safely disposing of old or unused prescription medications can curb prescription drug abuse that can lead to addiction and overdose. In the United States, prescription drug abuse impacts people of all ages, across all socioeconomic backgrounds, and in all kinds of communities. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), more people died in 2014 from drug overdoses than in any year before.
"As a doctor, I've seen firsthand the devastating impact prescription drug abuse has had on families," said Congressman Bera. "I'm pleased that members from both sides of the aisle in the House voted to help combat prescription drug abuse and make it easier to dispose of unused prescription drugs by passing my legislation. Making safe and secure prescription disposal more available, and educating people on the importance of appropriately getting rid of unused medications are simple steps we can take to keep prescription drugs from falling into the wrong hands and prevent addiction. This solution is an easy fix to a problem that is too serious to ignore."
After three years of tireless advocacy, the healthy food incentive program Market Match got a boost yesterday as Governor Jerry Brown approved a state budget that includes $5 million for the California Nutrition Incentives Act. The Act is modeled after Market Match, which is increasing access to fresh produce among Californians who are struggling to feed their families, while giving an economic boost to the state's embattled farm communities.
The $5 million in state funds will attract federal matching dollars through the USDA's Food Insecurity Nutrition Incentive program (FINI) and double the impact of the state's investment.
A broad coalition of over 200 non-profit organizations and individuals including Roots of Change, Latino Coalition for a Healthy California, American Heart Association, California Pan-Ethnic Health Network, Hunger Action Los Angeles and the Ecology Center, which administers Market Match statewide, worked over a three-year period to secure the funding. In 2014, the coalition's first attempt didn't make it out of the appropriations committee. Last year, the legislature passed the California Nutrition Incentives Act, which Gov. Brown signed, but he then axed the $2.5 million in funding that the legislature proposed for the program.
"With this funding, the state of California has put its money where its mouth is in terms of supporting healthy eating for low-income families," says Ecology Center Executive Director Martin Bourque. "The demand for Market Match has consistently outstripped the supply of funds. The additional $5 million will allow us to expand the program towards our goal of offering Market Match at every farmers' market in the state," he said.
Established in 2009, by Roots of Change, Market Match works by providing CalFresh customers with matching funds when they spend their CalFresh benefits (i.e. food stamps) on fruits and vegetables at farmers' markets. So a shopper who spends $10 of CalFresh benefits at the farmers' market gets an extra $10 to spend on fresh produce. Participants in the program, both small farmers and low-income shoppers, strongly support the program.
Among low-income customers, 70% report that they are buying more fruits and vegetable, and nearly 80% report that their family's health has improved. 81% of farmers report increased sales and 74% report increased income, thanks to Market Match.
Founded in 1969, the Ecology Center is a nonprofit organization located in Berkeley, California that is actively working to create and promote an alternative food system based on the values of environmental protection, justice, and access to healthy, sustainably produced food for all.
The United States Tennis Association recently named Sacramento resident Alan Criswell as the USTA Northern California Local Hero.
The Sacramento Community Tennis Association, founded in 1999 by Criswell, offers affordable junior tennis programs to more than 300 youngsters in the Sacramento area, with a focus on underserved kids. Criswell's work continues to boost the sport in Northern California, and in 2015, the Sacramento Community Tennis Association was named the section's Outstanding Community Tennis Association.
Criswell focuses on all players. In 2010, he was awarded the Wheelchair Tennis Outstanding Volunteer, which goes to an individual that has gone above and beyond in providing outstanding service to the wheelchair tennis community.
As of July 1, 2016, the bank that processes electronic fund transfer (EFT) payments for several state agencies has changed from Citibank to Union Bank. This change impacts all California businesses that make electronic payments to the various agencies, including to tax or fee accounts with the State Board of Equalization (BOE).
In addition to the Board of Equalization, the impacted agencies include the Employment Development Department, Franchise Tax Board, Department of Insurance, State Controller's Office, Department of Health Care Services, State Teachers Retirement System, State Water Resources Control Board, Department of Pesticide Regulation, Department of Industrial Relations, and the Public Utilities Commission.
If you use the BOE's online payment system to make your payment, no change is required on your part.
However, if you make Automated Clearing House (ACH) Debit payments through the EFT payment processor, visit our new bank and payment processor webpage for instructions. If you pay by ACH Credit, you must notify your financial institution of the new bank information to ensure the correct bank is credited.
ACH Credit transactions with a settlement date on or after July 1, 2016, using incorrect banking information will be returned and may be subject to penalty and interest charges. In addition, any payments that were made to Union Bank prior to July 1, 2016, will also be returned and may be subject to penalty and interest charges.
For more information on EFT payments, visit the BOE's Frequently Asked Questions webpage. If you have questions about Sales and Use Tax accounts, call our EFT helpline: 1-916-327-4229. For questions about Special Taxes and Fees accounts, call 1-800-400-7115. Additional information is available at www.boe.ca.gov.
Citrus Heights resident and member of the Sacramento Board of Supervisors for 12 years, Roberta MacGlashan, will be passing on the baton for District Four at the end of 2016. MacGlashan was elected to the original Citrus Heights City Council in 1996. She served two terms, including two one-year terms as Mayor in 1999 and 2002. Prior to that, she was the last President of the Citrus Heights Incorporation Project ("CHIP"), following Bill Van Duker and Doug Ose in that position.
In 2004, MacGlashan was elected to the Sacramento County Board of Supervisors, representing the Fourth District. She was re-elected in 2008 and 2012. Following redistricting in 2011, the Fourth District now includes the cities of Citrus Heights and Folsom, and the unincorporated communities of Antelope, Gold River, Orangevale, Rancho Murieta, Rio Linda and Elverta. MacGlashan has decided to retire from public service at the end of her current term on January 2, 2017.
Highlights of MacGlashan's public service include the selection of the current Citrus Heights City Manager, Henry Tingle; the current City Attorney, Ruthann Ziegler; and working with the other four original City Councilmembers to establish the foundation for the success of the City of Citrus Heights. While on the Board of Supervisors, MacGlashan has been an advocate for public safety, working to maintain and enhance the services provided by the Sheriff's Department, the District Attorney's Office, and the Probation Department. She also led the effort to ban marijuana cultivation in the unincorporated area. Other highlights include the opening of "new" Terminal B at the Airport. She estimates that in the last 12 years she has hosted over 500 community meetings throughout the district.
MacGlashan was born and raised in Southern California, and moved to Citrus Heights in 1990 to pursue her career as a planning consultant in the Sacramento area. She and her husband Craig, a retired attorney, have been married for 43 years. She is looking forward to traveling without a set schedule, overseeing some home improvements, and having more time for figure skating, reading for pleasure and volunteering for the California Capital Airshow. She will miss working with all of the wonderful people she has come to know while serving as the Fourth District Supervisor.

text: Rob Shamlian's Los Feliz taqueria was shut down temporarily during a LES underage-drinking ambush last spring, but that doesn't mean Community Board 3 holds a grudge: They just granted Shamlian swift and unconditional approval to convert two service bars into standup bars at the three-level Los Feliz. Reps from CB3 didn't get back to us, but of the unanimous vote in his favor, Shamlian tells Grub Street, "We've been super clean for years … we have security; we don't have fights or complaints from neighbors." He says the plans for two standup bars, still subject to approval from the State SLA, is not to draw more customers, "but to serve the patrons proper that we already have."

Recently I have had the misfortune of visiting the emergency room twice - once with my father, who had had a stroke, and once as a patient, due to a dislocated knee.
In both instances the care was top-notch. The hospital emergency room staff, the nurses and the doctors all took very good care of us.
However, my father and I have two very different health care situations. I have health insurance, and simply have to pay a modest deductible for all of the care I received. My father though, has no health insurance and is currently trying to figure out how to pay the hospital, the doctors, etc.
While my father and I don't see eye-to-eye on everything, he's a pretty decent guy. He proudly served our nation in the Navy. He was an autoworker before that. And he is also part Choctaw Indian.
I mention all of this as context. He is a 63-year-old veteran living on Social Security, and he doesn't have a lot of financial options.
He's too young for Medicare. However, due to his low income he is in the process of applying for Medicaid. He's also inquiring about VA benefits and medical care with the Choctaw Nation.
Needless to say, unless something is figured out he is going to be stuck with hospital bills totaling $23,000, which he really can't afford to pay.
Oh, and let me repeat myself: He's a veteran without health care.
In a nation that supposedly honors its veterans we seem to be doing a piss-poor job of taking care of them after their service. In fact, 1.8 million veterans lack health care. In all, almost 6 million American veterans and their family members lack health care. And nearly two-thirds of these veterans are employed, like my father until he had a stroke.
To make matters worse, since my father doesn't have health insurance he will likely be charged more for the care he received than if he did.
What do I mean? Put simply, in today's for-profit health care industry those who can least afford to pay for health insurance are usually charged more for their health care needs than those who can afford to pay for health insurance.
Let me explain with an example from my hospital visit.
About a month after my injury I started receiving hospital bills: one bill was for $2,461.25, another was for $2,173, and another was for $275, and then there were a few smaller bills.
Obviously, I was concerned about the prospect of having to pay these bills. When I called my health care provider, a very nice lady in customer service said, "Don't worry about those bills, as they were probably issued prior to [the insurer] making payment based on your policy agreement, though you will still need to pay your deductible."
Then I asked a few questions and found out that the insurer negotiates a lower rate for its members. So for example, the hospital bill for $2,461.25 was now $1,550, she told me, almost $1,000 less.
I then asked her, "Does that mean if I hadn't had insurance I would have to pay $2,461.25 instead of the insurer paying $1,550." She politely answered, "Yes," and I'm sure similar negotiated rates have been applied to the rest of my bills as well. All of which strikes me as irrational.
But maybe that's the point. Our current health care system is irrational.
Veterans, service men and women, people who proudly served in our armed forces and their families, deserve universal health care coverage. Veterans should be able to walk into any hospital or doctor's office in the country and receive top-notch health care for free - we all should.
Veterans, or anybody else for that matter, should NOT put off going to the hospital or doctor's office.
My father had his stroke on a Tuesday night or Wednesday morning, but waited until Thursday afternoon to call me. His speech was slurred, his eyesight was blurry and he had vertigo. I literally had to drag him to the emergency room, because he didn't know how he was going to pay for the care he received.
While I know single-payer, cradle to grave, health care is a far cry from where we are at today, can't we at least make sure all of our veterans and their families have health care? Can't we at least make sure that those without health care aren't arbitrarily charged more for the care they receive than those with health insurance?
The Affordable Care Act has taken some modest steps in the right direction. However, we've got a long way to go.

I'm curious: What are the horizontal and vertical lines in the first and second picture? Are they for the composition, or for random details in the background? :S Great work, by the way. I'm really envious.
Thank you! They're just marks I make when I'm sizing up objects and keeping everything in proportion.

Insight. The Problematic Process of Cryptozoologification How did the traditional character of the cannibal ogress Dzunuk'wa come to be claimed by cryptozoologists as a depiction of their hypothesized "Bigfoot" cryptid species?
(Kwakwaka'wakw heraldic pole. Carved in 1953 by Mungo Martin, David Martin, and Mildred Hunt. Thunderbird Park at the Royal British Columbia Museum, Victoria. Photograph by Daniel Loxton) Much of my skeptical research traces the historical pathways through which pseudoscientific and paranormal beliefs emerge and evolve over time. My research has often led me to consider how folkloric phenomena are brought under the umbrella of cryptozoology (the largely pseudoscientific "study" of legendary, allegedly "hidden" animals).

I'm struggling with a problem facing c3p0 configuration. I posted a question last week- C3P0 Configurations! Where and How?, but no answer received. Any help is appreciated.
We started with Q&A. Technical documentation is next, and we need your help.
Whether you're a beginner or an experienced developer, you can contribute.

It's difficult to tell what is being asked here. This question is ambiguous, vague, incomplete, overly broad, or rhetorical and cannot be reasonably answered in its current form. For help clarifying this question so that it can be reopened, visit the help center.If this question can be reworded to fit the rules in the help center, please edit the question.
This is a configuration I am using which keeps resources to a minimum. Of course you'll want to tailor your application to use the resources it needs...
Reference: http://www.mchange.com/projects/c3p0/index.html
Below configuration sets poolsize between 3-20. Idle connections are retested every 5 minutes to keep them active. Because of
Use of
Best configuration is to setup JPA to use the container environment to get DataSource.
This allows the container to provide the connection pooling rather than configuration it directly into your JPA project.
You do not indicate which container enviroment you are working with. I almost always use c3p0 with Standalone applications, such as Java SE desktop or server applications. I also use it with Spring framework.
When using a container such as Servlet (Tomcat/Jetty) or Application Server (such as Glashfish or JBoss AS) these already provide a DataSource connection pooler implementation that is usually not c3p0 but provides equivalent function.
I have never tried to configure a connection pooler inside a JPA project because this means editing configuration to customize it for every environment it needs to run in. This is a headache so it best that JPA part be given the DataSource to use during bootstrap.

If using IMAP-authenticaton or LDAP-authentication,
users can log in without requiring the admin to setup
an group-office-account for them.
However, those accounts do not have any rights, no
modules are enabled.
At the moment, the user logs in and out.
The admin logs in, can now see this user and enable
some modules.
The user logs in again and can now user group-office.
It would of course be much better, if I could give my
users default-rigths. The group "everybody" does exist,
but I can't give this group access to the mail-module,
for example.
I want them to use group-office if they have an account
(either IMAP or LDAP) without any further
administrative action. I suppose it would be easy to
use the source and change the defaults, but I'm sure
other installations will face the same issue, so a more
generic solution seems to be much better.

Six hotties giving some great handjobs!
The recipients of these six handjobs are indeed quite happy, as are the half dozen young gals whose wrist action keeps them trim and fit and, well … employed.
It is hard to make a handjob scene without doing more than jacking the dick. This is especially true with Charley Chase, who finds it impossible to not sink her luscious lips around the lucky stud on more than a few occasions. The rest of the gals have better restraint and only fleetingly tease the guys with a slurp or two. They also tend to enhance the experience with frequent tittie-fucking and rubbing the dude against and along their cracks without, sigh, insertion.
But hey—it is a handjob release, and it will also appeal to fans of big boobs thanks to the topheavy presence of Alexia Rae, Katie Cox and Natasha Nice. Overall, the cocks are treated like kings.

Alberto Palmer told police he killed Brittany Clardy during postcoital "tussle"
Palmer (left) has been charged with murder for killing Clardy (right).
Earlier today, 23-year-old Alberto Palmer was charged with second-degree murder in connection with the death of Brittany Clardy. Police say Clardy, an 18-year-old St. Paul woman, was working as a prostitute at the time of her murder. She was found dead in a vehicle that had been towed to a Columbia Heights impound lot.
THE BACKSTORY: Brittany Clardy, woman found dead inside towed vehicle, was a prostitute, police say [UPDATE]
The impounded car had been towed from an apartment building off Kentucky Avenue in Brooklyn Park, and police used cell phone records to determine that Palmer -- who was wanted in Atlanta for kidnapping, false imprisonment, fourth-degree criminal sexual conduct, and first-degree assault -- had been in the building and at his brother's apartment around the time the car was impounded. A search of his brother's apartment found deep blood stains and a pair of pants later determined to be Clardy's.
Authorities tracked Palmer to a Woodbury home, where he was arrested. Palmer said Clardy came to the Brooklyn Park apartment after he responded to a sex solicitation ad she had placed online. Here's what he told authorities about the circumstances of Clardy's death, according to the Pioneer Press:
[After the two had sex, they], began to "tussle," [and] he choked her to unconsciousness and hit her in the head with a hammer multiple times.
Palmer said he then put Clardy in a car, covered her body with blankets, and left the car at a Brooklyn Park apartment complex, where it was found 10 days later...
Clardy's cause of death was determined to be multiple blows with foreign object to the back of the head.
The maximum penalty for second-degree murder in Minnesota is 40 years in prison.

'Nothing is the same as something else': significant properties and notions of identity and originality

What does it mean to claim that one record, one archival object, is identical to another? Questions of identity (or 'sameness') often arise in the fields of digital preservation, imaging, transcription and editing. Experts in these fields sometimes assert that success in their mission depends on the ability to define the 'significant' or 'essential' properties of records and that, if these can be protected, the identity of records will be preserved across episodes of migration or conversion. However, the determination of 'significant properties' is no less problematical than the debate about notions of 'value' in appraisal theory, not least because different user communities will bring different perceptions of what constitutes significance. The sameness of discrete entities, the concept of significance and the methods by which sameness or significance might be assessed are all open to dispute; opinions will inevitably depend on the contexts in which judgements are made. Originality is also a frequently contested notion, especially in the digital world, but must not be dismissed as meaningless. The copies that emerge from acts of migration, conversion or transcription are neither incontrovertibly identical to their originals nor carriers of properties that are objectively significant.

Anna Friel & 'Harry Potter' Star Divorce: Daughter UnaffectedChris Rogers
Anna Friel and her Harry Potter star ex-husband David Thewlis split last year, but the Pushing Daisies star recently admitted she will always love her former flame.
"We were together for 10 years and I'll always love him very much," Anna tells Stylist magazine, adding, "He's a dear, dear man and we're great parents. He's always got his eye on Gracie, as have I."
And their 6-year-old daughter, Gracie, will always be their top priority.
"Gracie's got that stability and as far as the break-up goes, she's unscathed by it," Anna insists. "We juggle it and Gracie is always our biggest priority and I think that's all I have to say about that."

Queens Frat Channels Zac Efron in Neighbors
There goes the neighborhood.
A neighborhood dispute involving some bros from St. John's University and the young family next door just happens to mirror the No. 1 movie in the country, but with less of Seth Rogen's back hair and Efron's abs. "They scream on the streets, drunk out of their minds," one Fresh Meadows resident complained. "It used to be so nice here." The frat's door has also been scrawled on with Sharpie; messages include, "Do not enter," "Please help us," and, most creatively, the F-word. "My retarded friend did it," one student told the Daily News. "I didn't think we were doing anything to disturb them, honestly. We just watch sports here. We had one small party." If they're smart, they had it sponsored by Neighbors.

Kim (Paperback)
Special Order (unlikely to be available)
Selected by the Modern Library as one of the 100 best novels of all time
Filled with lyrical, exotic prose and nostalgia for Rudyard Kipling's native India, "Kim" is widely acknowledged as the author's greatest novel and a key element in his winning the 1907 Nobel Prize in Literature. It is the tale of an orphaned sahib and the burdensome fate that awaits him when he is unwittingly dragged into the Great Game of Imperialism. During his many adventures, he befriends a sage old Tibetan lama who transforms his life. As Pankaj Mishra asserts in his Introduction, To read the novel now is to notice the melancholy wisdom that accompanies the native boy's journey through a broad and open road to the narrow duties of the white man's world: how the deeper Buddhist idea of the illusion of the self, of time and space, makes bearable for him the anguish of abandoning his childhood.
About the Author
Nobel prize-winning writer Rudyard Kipling was born in Bombay, India, but returned with his parents to England at the age of five. Influenced by experiences in both India and England, Kipling s stories celebrate British imperialism and the experience of the British soldier in India. Amongst Kipling s best-known works are The Jungle Book, Just So Stories, and the poems Mandalay and Gunga Din. Kipling was the first English-language writer to receive the Nobel prize for literature (1907) and was amongst the youngest to receive the award. Kipling died in 1936 and is interred in Poets Corner in Westminster Abbey.
Pankaj Mishra was born in northwest India in 1969 and lives in London and Mashobra, India. The author of "An End to Suffering "(FSG, 2004) and "Temptations of the West "(FSG, 2006), as well as a novel, "The Romantics, "he writes for "The New Yorker", "The New York Review of Books", "The New York Times Book Review", and "The Guardian".
Praise For…
"A work of positive genius, as radiant all over with intellectual light as the sky of a frosty night
with stars."
—The Atlantic Monthly

Oh, ye gods, a comic meant to make me laugh that actually accomplished that goal. Itâs been a while, good sir, but Iâm happy to say that âWho Wonât Wield the Shieldâ #1 is an irreverent and gloriously inane book that is actually funny. Itâs a comic aimed directly at Marvelâs current regime, taking on overly violent comics, the oversaturated nature of Deadpool, and, I guess, the lack of awesome comics by Matt Fraction and Brendan McCarthy? We could always use more of them like the âDoctor Americaâ story included here. Itâs not quite a parody of âCaptain America,â more a parody of Marvel done in the tradition of âNot Brand Echh.â
The framing story is a bit of insider baseball aimed at the online fanbase, specifically the one on Twitter that follows creators like Matt Fraction, Brian Michael Bendis, Jason Aaron, and Ed Brubaker. But, since Iâm one of those fans, Iâm not exactly complaining. It introduces Forbush Man as a stone cold killer bought by the Red Skull and wanting revenge against Ed Brubaker for ruining comics with dark stories like the death of Captain America. The other two stories in the book come as comics presented to Forbush Man as examples that Marvel does fun comics.
The first, Fraction and McCarthyâs âDoctor America,â is a Satanic psychedelic take on Captain Americaâs origin that seems like the Marvel answer to McCarthyâs work in âSoloâ #12 where, instead of âDitrankoâ being invoked, itâs âDitkirbankoâ and Fraction peppers the story with Nixon references. Itâs insane and fragmented, full of allusions and word play. Not quite funny, it is fun as weird takes on other Marvel characters happen, McCarthy continuing his channeling of Steve Ditko in this combination of Doctor Strange and Captain America, complete with a goat boy sidekick that is âway better than Bucky Barnes, because I am a goat that is also a boy.â Itâs weird-looking, not at all what you expect from the regular Marvel universe with bright and overwhelming colors. Part an affirmation of fun, stupid, awesome comics, part a mockery, worth the price of admission by itself.
The second story isnât quite as good, but is still pretty entertaining as weâre introduced to Veapon (swastika that sort of resembles an X), the Golden Age Deadpool! Told in newsreels, Stuart Moore and Joe Quinones tell an amusing story about Woodrow Wilsonâs embarrassing nephew who got out of duty in World War I by smoking so many cigars it seemed like mustard gas and is forced to wear a gas mask all of the time as a result. When given the chance to betray his country and become a Super-Soldier, he jumps at it, becoming Veapon (swastika that sort of resembles an X). Quinonesâ cartoony style suits the time period of the story and is great at delivering the visual gags, especially Wilson seeing the world as black and white cartoons from the period.
The framing story concludes in a humorous manner, done is a painterly realistic style by Mirco Pierfederici that contrasts well with the cartoony, comic booky art of the other two stories. Some jokes wonât land for readers not up on their knowledge of writersâ internet habits, but the general tone of the book is just right. The issue even ends with a parody of the âSiegeâ checklist page with some genuinely funny fake comics. The $3.99 price tag may keep some away, but, as I said, itâs worth it for the âDoctor Americaâ story alone and the rest all pretty good, too.
(Check out the art in this book! Itâs some good-looking stuff!)

Summary | Excerpt | Reviews | Beyond the book | Readalikes | Genres & Themes | Author Bio
Hauntingly beautiful and heartbreaking, Colm Tóibín's sixth novel, Brooklyn, is set in Brooklyn and Ireland in the early 1950s, when one young woman crosses the ocean to make a new life for herself.
Eilis Lacey has come of age in small-town Ireland in the years following World War Two. Though skilled at bookkeeping, she cannot find a job in the miserable Irish economy. When an Irish priest from Brooklyn to sponsor Eilis in America -- to live and work in a Brooklyn neighborhood "just like Ireland" -- she decides she must go, leaving her fragile mother and her charismatic sister behind.
Eilis finds work in a department store on Fulton Street, and when she least expects it, finds love. Tony, a blond Italian from a big family, slowly wins her over with patient charm. He takes Eilis to Coney Island and Ebbets Field, and home to dinner in the two-room apartment he shares with his brothers and parents. He talks of having children who are Dodgers fans. But just as Eilis begins to fall in love with Tony, devastating news from Ireland threatens the promise of her future.
By far Tóibín's most instantly engaging and emotionally resonant novel, Brooklyn will make readers fall in love with his gorgeous writing and spellbinding characters.
Chapter 1
Eilis went to midnight mass with Mrs. Kehoe and Miss Keegan, discovering on the way home that Mrs. Kehoe was among the parishioners who were roasting a turkey and potatoes and boiling a ham for Father Flood, who had arranged for it all to be collected at twelve.
"It's like the war," Mrs. Kehoe said. "Feeding the army. Has to be done like clockwork. I'll carve what our own small needs will be from the turkey, the biggest one I could get, it'll be six hours in the oven, before I send it off. And we'll eat, just the four of us, myself, Miss McAdam, Miss Heffernan and Miss Keegan here, as soon as the turkey is off our hands. And if there's anything left over, we'll save it for you, Eilis."
By nine o'clock Eilis was in the parish hall peeling vegetables in the big kitchen at the back. There were women working beside her whom she had never met before, all of them older than she, some with faint American accents but all of Irish origin. Most of them were just here for this ...
With deft prose and subtle characterization, Tóibín contemplates whether anyone can ever really return home.
(Reviewed by Sarah Sacha Dollacker).
Full Review (388 words).
Like Eilis, Colm Tóibín was born in
County Wexford, Ireland. Born in 1955, he was the second youngest of five
children. He graduated from University College Dublin in 1975 and
promptly moved to Barcelona for three years. His experiences in Spain informed
his first novel
The South
(1990). Tóibín returned to Ireland to pursue a masters
but never matriculated. He left academia for a career in journalism, and was
editor of the prominent Irish news magazine Macgill from 1982 to 1985.
He has taught literature and creative writing at Princeton and Stanford Universities, among
others, and currently lives in Dublin.
Along with writing a number of critically-acclaimed novels, Tóibín ...

Really hard to even consider playing the cassette player with all the other shiny toys just waiting for me break the seals on some analog tapes and records, A real jewel this RT was, I even got some old tapes that recorded to practice sessions of an up and coming band at the time.
Nothing like some shiny s to make a audio addict smile or just get a crazy lunatic look in their eyes ,, hehe
Silver Power with big handles and who doesnt like to see those needles hitting the sweet spot :) this couple have been together a long time according to my benefactor who was kind enough to let me bring these guys back into business.

Anyone remember actually using EQs ? Button and lever lovers can tweak these for days :)
The Infinity QLS 1s. I was fortunate enough to find some new mid dome drivers for this pair not long after a recap and refoaming and some TLC, These were truly a pleasure to restore. ok maybe thats exagerating things a bit, they are a challenge if done properly.
Klipsch KG 5.2 rescue speakers that I just couldnt let go to the speaker graveyard
Actually Have a weak spot for slightly sick Infinity and Klipsch speakers who end up on Skidrow waiting to grabbed up by by slightly insane speakerholics or pretty much anyone who accidentally acquire some of the absolutely great craftsmanship and solid designs of the 60s and 70s gear and high end speakers, listen up ,always allow a few feet for a reliable fast exit for the slightly crazed audiophiles who invade the goodwills with visions of orphaned tube amps and the shiny silver or gold audio pieces that haunted their dreams:) Giant horn drivers and beautiful walnut cabs or the famous Infinity's of yesteryear , yes these poor pitiful pieces of Audio Perfection beckoned us all to rescue them,, oops I must apologize for reliving those moments when we knew we had hit the motherload;) Cheers
A few strays I rebuilt and rehomed
Infinity Crescendo 3007s that were rescued from a dumpster and given some new tweeters, caps and refoamed, not bad for home theater duty until I rehomed them.
Infinity Crescendo 3007s
Testing out the new arrivals before they go into surgery :) Having an empty finished basement with lots of rooms is just awesome as a Speakerholic, Rotating pairs on random or regular intervals can also be added to the excuses that we need to amass our secret audio empire:)
Scaling tall buildings and feats of strength hardly garner any attention these days, admitted we are powerless until we acquire our dream amp we must prevail against all odds to bring home our shiny lost pieces of history to restore to their former glory, this is the life of the poor audiophile, but suffer on we must :) Cheers
Pioneer The rack, Pioneer store exhibit system and personal system of a good friend who was kind enough to allow me to bring this late 70 system back to its former glory, another classic audio addict was made for life after enjoying this restore and the mighty Infinity QLS 1s that came with it, thx Pete wherever you are these days :)

Product Reviews
bookwomanjoanOak Harbor, WAAge: 55-65Gender: female4 Stars Out Of 5protecting youth from demonic influenceNovember 17, 2011bookwomanjoanOak Harbor, WAAge: 55-65Gender: femaleQuality: 4Value: 4Meets Expectations: 3We tend to forget about the unseen reality of the spirit world and the influence it has on our well-being. Greenwood believes demons want to harm your child. She gives biblical examples of evil acts directed at children (such as Pharaoh and Herod). She shares her own experience with a spirit of fear.
She relates how children often see spiritual realities we would dismiss, frequently having nightmares or seeing something in the dark. Greenwood suggests asking what the child is seeing, whether it is "good" or "bad." The spiritual influence can then be dealt with accordingly. She suggests parents help their children exercise spiritual authority.
Greenwood wants the reader to be sure there are no demonic influences within the home, either from current possessions, from actions of previous owners, soul ties, or from generational curses. She has suggested prayers to deal with these issues. She also helps readers identify the evil influences of this world and how to counter them. She speaks to the issue of sexual abuse and providing for healing. She addresses childhood trauma and which spiritual issues are involved. She covers troublesome behavior of teens and how to break the power of those acts. She encourages parents to build a godly image in their children.
Greenwood has been involved in deliverance ministry for some time. In the latter part of her book she gives the techniques for ministering freedom, speaking truth, praying.
Greenwood relates many stories of her own experiences, and those of others, dealing with spiritual warfare. She includes many first person accounts. What is lacking is scriptural support for many aspects of her book, such as soul ties.
Those who are willing to deal with the unseen spiritual world and its influence on our lives will find valuable resources in this book. Those who need to have "proof" on this subject will be disappointed as the book is almost totally anecdotal. A scriptural defense of Greenwood's ministry of deliverance will have to be found elsewhere.
Greenwood lost my respect when she gave credence to Masaru Emoto's claims that the molecular structure of water is affected by our words and thoughts. (144-145) A quick search of Emoto showed that his work is considered "pseudoscience" by reputable scientists. That Greenwood would even include Emoto's pseudoscience in her book is disappointing. It might give readers the impression that other parts of her book are not to be trusted. The inclusion of Emoto's claims really served no purpose and is a glaring defect in an otherwise great book.
I received a copy of this book from Charisma House for the purpose of this review.

Another Bughunt
Galaxy of Terror, Mutant (NSFW), Contamination and the joy of cheap alien knockoffs. Prefer the sequel? Here's Aliens remade under the name "Terminator 2". Sadly one take on the franchise that will not be seeing the light of day is Alien Identity, a fan film recently shut down by a cease and desist from Fox. Meanwhile the Neil Blomkamp Alien film continues to incubate.
What kind of a transmission?
"Derelict is an editing project for academic purposes," explains Willins. "Prometheus wasn't exactly an Alien prequel, but this treats it as such by intercutting the events of Alien with Prometheus in a dual narrative structure. The goal was to assemble the material to emphasize the strengths of Prometheus as well as its ties to Alien."
"This movie was made in 1986. It invented all the cliches."
Matt Zoller Seitz hosted a sleepover for his 11 year old son and his son's friends. Soon it came time to watch a movie, which produced: Notes on watching "Aliens" for the first time again, with a bunch of kids .
"We haven't found the right planet."
"Alien 3 was flawed from its inception and it was certainly flawed—actually, pretty fucked up—well before we started shooting. So there you go. Take all of the responsibility, because you're going to get all of the blame." — David Fincher [previously]
The Weyland-Yutani Archives
From The Weyland-Yutani Archives:
During Alien's pre-production, Ridley Scott drew up a story board presentation of Alien for 20th Century Fox. These storyboards are known as 'Ridleygrams'. This story board presentation contains scenes and FX shots that were later re-written or dropped due to budgetary reasons.[more inside]

Take Me To Your Sales Leader
Want to get your graphic novel made into a movie? As a last resort, try creating an actual graphic novel. Then, pay comic book stores to both carry it and sell it cheap (or give it away while still counting it as a sale). Once you've artificially climbed the sales charts, Hollywood will come-a-callin'. The story of how Cowboys & Aliens (has just about) made it to the silver screen. [Via gammasquad.]
Is this gonna be a standup fight, sir, or another bughunt?
In an exclusive interview with MTV, Ridley Scott releases further details on his latest project: two 3D Alien prequels, which will have a non-Ripley female lead and focus on the story behind the first movie's "Space Jockey." [more inside]
Is this a rap battle, sir, or another bug hunt?

"The Achitecture of Happiness "is a dazzling and generously illustrated journey through the philosophy and psychology of architecture and the indelible connection between our identities and our locations.One of the great but often unmentioned causes of both happiness and misery is the quality of our environment: the kinds of walls, chairs, buildings, and streets that surround us. And yet a concern for architecture is too often described as frivolous, even self-indulgent. Alain de Botton starts from the idea that where we are heavily influences who we can be, and argues that it is architecture's task to stand as an eloquent reminder of our full potential.
About the Author
Alain de Botton is the author of numerous works of fiction and nonfiction, including "On Love", "How Proust Can Change Your Life", "The Consolations of Philosophy", " The Art of Travel", and "The Course of Love". He lives in London where he founded The School of Life, an organization devoted to fostering emotional health and intelligence. More can be found at AlainDeBotton.com.
Praise For…
"De Botton has a marvelous knack for coming at weighty subjects from entertainingly eccentric angles."
—The Seattle Times
"An elegant book. . . . Unusual . . . full of big ideas. . . . Seldom has there been a more sensitive marriage of words and images."
—The New York Sun
"With originality, verve, and wit, de Botton explains how we find reflections of our own values in the edifices we make. . . . Altogether satisfying."
—San Francisco Chronicle
"De Botton is high falutin' but user friendly. . . . He keeps architecture on a human level."
—Los Angeles Times

It stems from the words whats up. Another term that is very similar is sup. It is believed that this word was brought into existance by a typo.

ODT Online
ODT /directory
ORC environmental monitoring director Jeff Donaldson said
despite surrounding rivers, including the Motatapu, Shotover
and Kawarau, testing positive for the micro organism, also
known as rock snot, it had been hoped its spread into the
Arrow River could be stopped.
The positive test at The Hills indicated didymo was present
in the Arrow irrigation scheme used to irrigate Sir Michael
Hill's championship golf course, but that did not necessarily
mean it was also in the river.
The Hills superintendent Brendan Allen said the irrigation
system began blocking last summer and a sample was sent to
Niwa for testing, which found ''traces of didymo''.
The water race feeding the irrigation scheme is located just
below Macetown.
At the golf course the freshwater algae had clung to rocks,
which had created additional work for The Hills staff who had
cleaned The Canyons water feature, near the 17th hole,
several times over summer, while the bottom of the water race
appeared to be ''slimier''.
''It's not ideal, but we have found ways of dealing with it.
''Our waterways are not used by people swimming or fishing.
It's far more significant for recreational users and river
users than for us.''
When contacted by the ODT, Mr Donaldson said the Arrow
River was last sample-tested in 2009, at which time it was
not affected by didymo.
Sample testing ceased around that time because of how
widespread the problem had become, with council staff
carrying out observation tests instead.
''It's disappointing, but we haven't confirmed it yet.
''We always knew we were in trouble with the Arrow because we
had it in the Matukituki and Motatapu.''
Mr Donaldson said while it was possible for didymo to be in
an irrigation race and not a river, the likelihood was the
Arrow was also affected, but it was unlikely to be
''The thing about the Arrow River is it carries such a high
sediment load, the sediment would act like a Steelo pad.
''The river itself is never going to develop a lot of
material because of the sediment.''
The Queenstown Trails Trust, organiser of the Motatapu
events, which include a 47km mountain bike race from Glendhu
Bay through the Motatapu, Soho and Glencoe Stations finishing
at Arrowtown, had a cleaning station at the summit to protect
Arrowtown and the Wakatipu basin from lagarosiphon, a pest
plant present in some of Otago's waterways, and didymo, Mr
Donaldson said.
''The biggest mover of the organism is the human mover.
''We've tried to ensure that people going from an affected
waterway to an unaffected waterway check, clean and dry.''
Signage was already in place around the Arrow River to
educate users on didymo and how to prevent its spread.
