There are so many examples on here that don't match the trope description, but I don't want to make a large change willy-nilly. Many of these examples are people who, through their own design, become incredibly dangerous. According to the trope description, pulling yourself up by your bootstraps and finding your calling isn't really the spirit of this. Who cares if the character was at one point a child? At some point, we all were. Some examples are particularly bad- Xykon, who was a sadist since childhood, is mentioned as being an example on its trope page. If Xykon counts, this seems towards People Sit on Chairs. All bad humans were children at some point, they don't plop out of the womb with spikes of villainy. Now, I'd understand if the trope included some clause about seeing villains back when they were harmless kids, but it doesn't say that at all- it merely says that the transformation must been an unlikely series of events that transformed a person who was on the road to normalcy to a path of nightmare fuel. Now, take, for instance, Anikan, whose legendarily high force potential would have gone on unnoticed had he grown up as a slaveboy under ordinary circumstances: he was spotted by the right person at the right time, who just so happened to need his help, and then because he was in the hands of the right person, he was able to be trained in the ways of the force. And as a result of him being nobody he had weaknesses a Jedi would not normally have- and these weaknesses were exploited to make him fall. And the person able to exploit these weaknesses was Palpatine, who was exactly where he needed to be to make Anikan fall. And then, he became Darth Vader, the galaxy's most well known mass murderer. Compare this to Xykon: Xykon was BORN a tool. Sure, he may have been aimless as a kid, but he was still a sadist who zombified his family. He killed just about everybody he met on his way to the top. He's exactly the sort of person you would expect to become a sorcerer lich: he was just lucky and powerful enough to bludgeon his way to the top. I say we need a massive revision to the trope list: Cut anyone who wasn't "normal", cut any villain shown as a child, before growing up and becoming a villain and cut any examples that aren't actual "nightmares" and are rather normal villain figures. If we really think villains as kids is a trope, make it a separate trope. Also, cut the heroes, unless they are some form of heroic abomination of some sort.

Would this example from He-Man count? http://www.he-man.org/cartoon/episode.php?id=44&ep=189 "A poor man named Nepthu limps across the Sands of Time in search for the Temple of The Sun. Inside he claims the Scarab of Power, a magical jewel. The scarab's power transforms Nepthu into a muscular, dominating being." I'm not sure, because he's a one-shot villain, and is back to normal by the end of the episode. (Really a shame, too.)

So, I'd argue that this trope would work just as well for heroes. I mean, you wouldn't get anything that nightmarish, but certainly a nightmare for the other side to deal with. Otherwise the details would theoretically be exactly the same as is already described. Though, granted, the bare bones of that sort of thing is exceedingly common in Heroic Fantasy, etc. kinds of fiction, I feel that the trope would still be in effect if an emphasis on a "before/after" effect is put in place, or just the sheer scale of badassery or greatness or what have you to which a once extremely unassuming, if heroic, individual has climbed is made apparent. So, yes, editors would have to be much more discerning about heroic examples than with villainous ones.

Deleted the second "Real Life" folder because it was redundant. Also it was redundant. And because it was redundant, I deleted it.

What's with all the heroic/generic badass examples? The trope implies villainy very heavily.
05:56:24 PM Aug 11th 2011
I took out one of the Kung Fu Panda examples because I'm familiar enough with it to find its presence here particularly egregious, but I really think the whole page could use a trim by people more familiar with the other works in question than I am. The trope description talks about the Nobody being, well, a nobody, someone who, if not for a twist of fate, would live and die unrecognized, unmarked by history—not someone who's starting with genius IQ or a noble title or respectable skills in martial arts. It then describes the Nightmare with a link to Eldritch Abomination and talks about being a threat on a universal scale, powerful enough to nuke entire civilizations to a fine gray powder—not run of the mill recurring comic book villains and serial killers. I really do think people are stretching the use here, on both ends. I know people like to trumpet their favorite badasses and all, but if characters like that whole list of Spiderman villains apply, I really think the phrasing of the trope could stand to be toned down several notches.
02:01:19 PM Oct 13th 2011
I think the block of Spider-man villains says less about any trope decay and more of Spider-man's love of Freak Lab Accidents (which undoubtedly do fall under the "twist of fate" descriptor, if nothing else).

Bloomberg: Flies Can Spread Swine Flu!
Ahhh, it's mutating! Everyone freak out!
Yesterday, Mayor Bloomberg was asked to weigh in on the most pressing issue of our times President Obama's heartless swatting of an innocent, freedom-loving fly. Bloomberg first defended his own pest-culling ("We are sending some of these geese for well-deserved rest up in the sky"), and then turned to Obama.
I'm sure what the president thought about was that particular fly might be spreading something like the H1N1 flu and he was going to risk his own life with hands bare hands, without Purell and he protected the public by hitting that fly, and we owe him a great debt of gratitude.
Heh, "without Purell." That was actually a pretty funny answer. Not bad, Bloomberg, not wait! Is he saying that flies can spread swine flu now? We know he was just kidding, but is there not some truth behind every joke? Is fly-to-human transmission a real threat now? What aren't you telling us?! Should we be freaking out?!?

AMC's western series Hell on Wheels returned to television for its second season on Sunday, though its ratings were not as strong as they had been for the show's first season. The second season premiere episode, "Viva La Mexico," nabbed 2.5 million viewers total, with only 793,000 of those in the important 18 to 49 age demographic.
Compare that to viewership for the first season's premiere (4.36 million) and finale (2.84 million). "Viva La Mexico" wasn't a series low, though; that honor still belongs to the season one episode "Pride, Pomp and Circumstance" (2.15 million viewers).
A sophomore slump is never good for a series, though Hell on Wheels had a lot going against it. The premiere episode was the show's first after Dish dropped AMC, meaning that some of those lost viewers just don't have the provider. Add that to the fact that the show was up against NBC's coverage of the 2012 London Olympics closing ceremonies, and that's even more for the show to overcome. There's also the fact that Hell on Wheels was, for the first time, not partnered with AMC's biggest series, The Walking Dead. Hell on Wheels' follow-up for the night, Breaking Bad, while creatively far superior to either show, just doesn't command the same viewership. Heavy competition from fellow westerner Longmire might also have contributed to the ratings drop, though that A&E drama wrapped up its first season on Sunday.
Currently, Hell on Wheels is performing slightly better than Breaking Bad and slightly worse than Mad Men (and far behind The Walking Dead). It's also doing considerably better than AMC's recently canned The Killing, though a continued decline in ratings certainly wouldn't bode well for the series.
The next episode of Hell on Wheels, "Durant, Nebraska," will air August 19 on AMC.

"Ghostbusters": 11 Things the Sequel Needs to Do to Succeed
I haven't seen an official announcement of this yet, but several bloggers have picked up that the info for DC's Before Watchmen trades is up on Amazon. I first saw this at Chris Marshall's DGTL Comics. All four books are scheduled for July 2013 release, one each week (so, right around Comic-Con). Here's what they are listing:
Before Watchmen, Vol. 1, by Darwyn Cooke and Amanda Conner, collects Before Watchmen: Minutemen (1-6) and Before Watchmen: Silk Spectre (1-4).
Before Watchmen, Vol. 2, by Brian Azzarello, J.G. Jones and Lee Bermejo, collects Before Watchmen: Comedian (1-6) and Before Watchmen: Rorschach (1-4)
Before Watchmen, Vol. 3, by J. Michael Straczynski, Adam Hughes and Joe Kubert, collects Before Watchmen: Nite Owl (1-4) and Before Watchmen: Manhattan (1-4)
Before Watchmen, Vol. 4, by Len Wein, Jae Lee and John Higgins, collects Before Watchmen: Ozymandias (1-6).
All four books are more than 250 pages, and Amazon lists the price at $29.99 each. Marshall notes there is also a Deluxe Edition of the original Watchmen that's due out in June.
In September, DC Comics Co-Publisher Dan DiDio told MTV Geek that there would be collected editions of Before Watchmen that "will sit side by side with the Watchmen books." He also hinted that sales of the trades would determine whether there would be more Before Watchmen comics in the future.
Everyone should boycott them so they don't make more before watchmen comics…
Asa said, "…Everyone should boycott them so they don't make more before watchmen comics…"
So…Everyone should boycott something you don't like and weren't buying in the first place so that they won't make anymore of the very thing you weren't buying?
i'm guessing volume 4 will include the back-ups by Wein?
"Before Watchmen" will not sit side by side with "Watchmen." Books with titles starting with the letters C through V will be between them.
What a way to waste paper on this POS…
Looking forward to buying these in July, just in time for my summer reading.
Might check out the first volume if my library buys it. I won't spend money to support this project.
Boy, I sure am looking forward to NOT buying these.
Now that DC has published Before Watchmen, will they be publishing Before Didio and Before Nelson?
I made a stand not to buy or read anything from the Big Two and this is the superlative example of why.
Thanks to everyone for pointing out that they won't buy these. Your over-inflated sense of self-importance and self-righteousness is really, really interesting.
Are you saying your sense of self-importance and self-righteousness is inflated just the right amount?
Hey Scratchie, if you don't feel any guilt or shame when purchasing something from the Big Two, then good for you. You're just the type of empty consumer that superhero comics need to perpetuate their terrible quality. Thanks!
Hopefully single TPB editions will follow those two-packs, I think they made a mistake with 6 issues of Comedian.
Moloch and Dollar Bill had best be getting worked into Vol 4. As far as not supporting these? WHY NOT?!! I dont see anyone being forced to read ANY of these books unless they want too!

One niche exception: cast-iron cookware can almost always be stripped and
reseasoned; many older pieces are nicer than what you could buy new.
Re: kitchen appliances, price is also a factor. Pick up a stand mixer for $10, it could work for 4 months and die and still be cheaper/month than shelling out $200 for a new one.
The rest of these are spot on, though. Used mattresses, baby bottles, ewww.

Eighteen games are in the books for the Chicago Cubs, who find themselves at a disappointing 5-13. They stand six games behind the division-leading Cincinnati Reds and have now lost four in a row.
Cubs fans have much to criticize, from the manager to the offense. Manager Dale Sveum has even threatened to demote Anthony Rizzo and Starlin Castro, whom are seen by many as the "future" of the Cubs.
Here we shine the light on the (already quite exposed) flaws in the 2013 Chicago Cubs.

The theme files of my sites ( http://upmarketnewsletters.com and http://endometrialcancer.org ) were trashed and I had to restore them from my hard drive. The database wasn't touched, just the theme files. This was a deliberate action: whoever it was had inserted a spam link to a spam site into the homepage's theme files, only in the process they apparently wrecked theme so that it wouldn't show (I think they hit one of the calls to one of the plugins).
Anyway, I'm assuming this was because I was too liberal with the server permissions. I need the themes to be server-writable for the theme editor. So what is the precise chmod profile I should use for the theme files? I have checked the codex but never found anything.

The Kentucky Transportation Cabinet Highway District 5 reports the following roadwork scheduled in Bullitt County for the week of August 2:
Bullitt County:
Interstate 65: Lane closures and delays are possible in both directions between the KY 61 underpass and the Bullitt/Jefferson County line (mile points 118.5 and 123.1) due to concrete pavement repairs. The roadway may be reduced to one lane weeknights Monday – Friday from 9:00 p.m. in the evening until 5:00 a.m. the following morning.
CEDAR GROVE - It looks as if David Cross won't have to reorder those campaign signs after all.
Reversing its June decision, the Bullitt County Public School Board voted to return to the drawing board and not immediately change the five voting districts.
In June, the board voted to alter the maps to bring the voting population more in line. However, that decision was reversed after learning that Cross had already filed to run in the Third District.
SHEPHERDSVILLE - Those wishing to have their names on the fall ballot have just one more day to make a trip to the county clerk's office.
The filing deadline is Aug. 10 at 4 p.m. in the county clerk's office in a number of races which had registration deadlines in the fall.
What many expected to be a large field of candidates in Mount Washington hasn't proven to be correct.
HILLVIEW - Three people have been arrested and tanother is being sought in a burglary that nearly turned into a fatal attack in northern Bullitt County.
Bullitt County Sheriff's deputies were called to the Preston Mobile Home Park off Wilma Avenue on Thursday evening after four people broke into an occupied home.
And one of the three people arrested had been sought as one of Louisville Metro Police's most wanted.
SHEPHERDSVILLE - The level of pay for the director of the Bullitt County Drug Task Force could be a factor in the number of people who apply for the full-time position.
But members of the Bullitt County Drug Task Force board of directors don't believe that issue can be accomplished in time to hire a new leader.
With the recent resignation of Blaine French, Larry Ethington has been the interim director. However, Ethington has informed the members that he would not be interested in the full-time appointment.
CLERMONT - While one middle school has filled its position for principal, another is in the job hunt.
Earlier this summer, Bernheim Middle principal Bob Bright resigned to take a similar position at LaRue County Middle.
"When you look at Bernheim Middle School under Bob Bright's leadership for the past three years, it is nothing short of amazing," said LaRue superintendent Sam Sanders. "The school has positively transformed in every aspect."
FRANKFORT ee" Governor Steve Beshear's ongoing effort to make Kentucky roads safer takes a big step on Thursday, July 15, when a new law takes effect to ban texting for all drivers and cell phone use for drivers under 18.
Kentucky recorded more than 57,000 crashes last year - and more than 200 fatalities - attributed to driver distraction and inattention.
SHEPHERDSVILLE - The academic year has yet to begin and parents and students at three Bullitt County middle schools will soon have to make a decision about their educational future.
Students at Bullitt Lick, Zoneton and Hebron Middle schools are eligible for transfers due to those schools failing to meet the federal No Child Left Behind act.
The NCLB figures for the past school year have not yet been released.
SHEPHERDSVILLE - On Sunday morning 11 July at 1150 Shepherdsville Police and a Bullitt County Sheriff's Deputy arrested 42 year old Timothy L. Burkhart, a w/m from Shepherdsville.
Deputy Troy Johns observed an individual at an electrical panel mounted on a pole in 1st Street Park and called for Shepherdsville Police.
Burkhart was attempting to remove the copper wiring from the pole and panel and had broken the electrical meter box.
SHEPHERDSVILLE - There has been no decision made but there is no doubt a strong feeling that the Bullitt County Parks Board could propose a change in the operation of its program.
On Thursday, several individuals from the public posed questions and concerns to the parks board. The comments would play a part in the board's recommendation to Bullitt Fiscal Court.

I Am Trying to Break Your Heart

- Publication
- By date
In the last two decades rock documentaries have become ubiquitous on TV but marginalized as cinema; this is the rare exception that earns its place on the big screen.
This picture is jagged and exciting; it tells several plots imperfectly, yet makes them add up to a great American story about integrity challenged and triumphant.
Tells Wilco's story so well that you'll leave the theater thinking the album is a work of genius.
An exciting and involving rock music doc, a smart and satisfying look inside that tumultuous world.
A photographer for magazines like Vanity Fair and GQ, as well as a veteran director of commercials, Mr. Jones brings a trained eye to this, his first documentary. The low gray skies of Chicago prove once again to be a boon to photography, and the city has seldom looked better than it does here, in its chilly, minimalist beauty.
It testifies to art's vitality and endurance, despite its marketers' -- and sometimes even its makers' -- efforts to the contrary.
Much to cheer here, from its treasure trove of early and alternate versions of songs to the triumphant finale.
This is a rare gem tripped over while making a run-of-the-mill rockumentary about a band's new album.
A modest vérité portrait of Wilco, the engagingly melodious, deeply unglam alt-folk rockers.
The film perpetuates a self-congratulatory vision of the record's worth, when an opposing point of view would have provided a more balanced perspective.
In 30 years time it might seem as incisive a document of its time as, say, Dont Look Back or Gimme Shelter. As a study of how the current corporate idiocy impacts one mans art, its priceless.
Shot in grainy black and white, the film features tons of entertaining footage of the band in the studio as well as an enlightening commentary from music critics Greg Kot and David Frick.
The unexpected drama captured puts I Am Trying to Break Your Heart in the good company, if not quite the league, of "Let It Be" and "Gimme Shelter."
The concert footage is stirring, the recording sessions are intriguing, and -- on the way to striking a blow for artistic integrity -- this quality band may pick up new admirers.
This is compelling stuff, but Jones seems almost pathologically averse to upstaging the songs themselves.
To love Wilco is to believe in a certain rustic intelligence about popular music (and about yourself) and to embrace the Tweedy worldview that you need sarcasm and vagueness to cope with the pitfalls of sincerity.
what we've got here is a little propaganda film. A mild one, certainly, but the cliché of DIY hopefuls (band) versus the Big Machine (music industry) foments the same tedious struggle of art versus commerce.
Jones's documentary, named for the opening song on Foxtrot, is most effective as a poison-pen missive to Corporate Rock.
As Tweedy talks about canning his stockbroker and repairing his pool, you yearn for a few airborne TV sets or nude groupies on the nod to liven things up. And what do we get? Diet Coke! Tonight is definitely not the night.
May leave itself open to charges of being little more than a promo feature posing as a documentary, but pic nevertheless is a warts-and-all look at a group of musicians -- and the music biz -- likely to make most record label flacks flinch.

Notice how the East and West Coast Papers have such a disdain for this amazing band. Could it be that Wilco is from the Midwest. Aren't these the same papers and reviewers who cheer for shit like Hillary Duff or Gwen Stefani or any other musician who is more entertainer than artist. I love me some Gwen sometimes, don't get me wrong. But don't fuck with Wilco just because they are normal people who drink Diet Coke.… Full Review »

How do I add the header php to my 2011 child theme?
How do I add the header php to my 2011 child theme?
Copy header.php from the 2011 theme and just paste it into your Child Theme directory.
Generally, if you are wanting to make changes to the header.php file, make a copy of the existing header.php file, put the copy in the child theme and make changes there (or you can make the changes on your local computer using a text editor and then upload the revised file to your child theme.
I get the copy paste part, but where do I paste? Directly into the 2011child stylesheet? I am having trouble figuring out how to save it into the new theme?
nevermind. i had no idea what I was doing and was trying to do it from the dashboard. just went into my ftp manager and figured it out. thanks!
make a copy of the existing header.php file
A totally NEW file using a text editor. Only CSS goes in a stylesheet.

I posted this question a few hours ago and got an answer, butthe answer is not right. The answer I got earlier was 0.0174C/m. The person giving the answer has been right all othertimes I used him. The answer has to be in μC/m, so Iconverted it to 17400 μC/m. Neither answer will work forthe solution.
Here is the question again:
What is the line charge density on a long wire if a8.4 µg particle carrying 2.1 nCdescribes a circular orbit about the wire with speed 280 m/s?
Also, how do you come up with the formula for the electricfield?
Any help woulb be greatly appreciated.

So I tried to put the preprocess forwarding into CoalesceFunctionNode, and that works too. It also looks more in line with the present design, so I have proceeded with that solution. This patch - adds a preprocess method to CoalesceFunctionNode to override the one in ValueNode, thus making sure the arguments get handled. - adds a printSubNodes method to CoalesceFunctionNode (was missing too, I discovered, when I was trying to look at the parse tree after binding). - adds a new test case to coalesceTests.java and an updated master I have run derbyall without errors and also run the modified test to verify that it exposes the problem in absence of the fix.

Dozens turn from drugs to toys
Drug Court clients say it feels good to 'give back.'
Published: Wednesday, December 21, 2011 at 9:45 a.m.
Last Modified: Tuesday, December 20, 2011 at 11:38 a.m.
Jessica Jablonski and Stephanie Chabot spent last Christmas together in the Terrebonne Parish jail. This year, they reunited for the holidays to wrap gifts.
"We both have kids," said Jablonski of her 43-year-old friend. "That's what makes this so special."
The two were among several Terrebonne Drug Court clients who joined together Monday to wrap presents that will go to children who might not receive a gift otherwise. The effort is part of a program the clients started this year to help those in need.
"This is the first time Drug Court clients can do something for the community, now that they're being good citizens," Terrebonne Drug Court Coordinator Danny Smith said.
Drug and DWI Court is a joint effort between the Terrebonne court system, local law enforcement, parish government and Leonard J. Chabert Medical Center, the Houma-based state charity hospital.
Here's how it works: Nonviolent offenders with a drug or alcohol problem enter a guilty plea prior to enrolling. They then have to complete the rigorous four-phase program to avoid serving the prison sentence that accompanied the guilty plea.
Once accepted, participants must undergo drug counseling, submit to random drug tests and periodically appear in court to have their progress checked. Charges are erased from the records of those who successfully complete the program.
This year, clients elected to give gifts to families at The Haven and Beautiful Beginnings, domestic-violence shelters in Terrebonne. They also adopted two other families suggested by local churches.
Forty of the 65 clients currently enrolled in the program took part in the holiday outreach, Treatment Director Kathleen Gregoire said, adding the idea was conceived and executed by the clients.
"We just helped along the way, but they orchestrated this. They did all the work," Gregoire said.
Participating clients are in various stages of their treatment, Smith said.
The gift-wrapping session took place in the old Kirschman's building next to Southland Mall. The gifts included clothing, toys and food.
"For all these years, I have took. It's good to give back," said John Champagne, who has been in treatment for 21 months.
On the labels, the clients wrote things such as "Girl, 3+ years." The clients said they don't know anything about these families, only that they need help.
Jablonski said while she is not able to spend Christmas with the families receiving the gifts, she will be able to do the next-best thing.
Today, she and other clients are going to present the gifts to the families at Beautiful Beginnings. She is excited, she said, to see the expressions on their faces.
"It's going to be nice," Jeblonsi said.

AIG Departures Mount With Replacement of Wilson, Golub: Table
Mark Wilson, who was replaced as leader of American International Group Inc.'s main Asia unit, joins more than 70 managers who defected to competitors, retired or were forced out following the insurer's rescue.
Former Prudential Plc Chief Executive Officer Mark Tucker will be the new head of AIA Group Ltd, AIG said yesterday. AIG CEO Robert Benmosche told staff in a memo that AIA needs to put "the best team of the field" to prepare for the unit's initial public offering. Harvey Golub stepped down last week as AIG's chairman after clashing with Benmosche over AIA.
The following table lists managers who have left since New York-based AIG was rescued by the U.S. in a 2008 bailout that swelled to $182.3 billion. The table was compiled from company statements and news reports. Some job titles, companies and employee first names have been abbreviated for space, and the new employers of some people weren't immediately available.

Minnesota SPJ supports granting bloggers' press passes
As we mentioned earlier, there's a debate brewing about certain blogs and internet news sites being kept out of covering the state House. Now the Minnesota Society of Professional Journalists has issued a statement supporting bloggers's rights.
Minnesota Society of Professional Journalists supports the ability of online-based journalists to attend any and all legislative gatherings open to other media. SPJ can see no reason why journalists should be excluded because of how their product is distributed. By barring online reporters, legislators portray themselves as out of touch with the method by which an increasing number of Minnesotans receive their news.
If the Legislature is concerned about the conduct of individual reporters, existing rules and procedures can be utilized. If the problem is one of space, then the criteria for distributing media passes should be equitable for all journalists, not arbitrarily discriminatory based on an outlet's medium.
The Minnesota Independent quotes House Rules Committee Chair Tony Sertich as saying a rule change to allow online media would open access to anybody. In fact, the change gives open access to everybody, which is the best and most credible means of government accountability in a democracy.
The Minnesota Chapter of SPJ is available to facilitate further discussions or meet with legislators to answer any questions.

HerRoom Response: The 9955 Tisha Bra is designed to be full coverage. If you would like less, we would suggest you look at the Le Mystere 955 stye.
HerRoom Response: HerRoom suggests you go up a band size if you are a 40 band size or larger, and a C cup or larger. Ruth, since your size is a 38, we would not have suggested you go to a 40 band size.
HerRoom Response: For your size of 36C, I would suggest you try the 955 style instead of this 9955. This bra is really designed for the fuller figure who wants full cup coverage.
HerRoom Response:Your comments about going up to a size FF is one we at HerRoom have not heard before. We have heard, however, that this bra does feel tight at first. But, that after a day of wear, the initial firmness seems to go away and becomes comfortable.

Denis Donoghue once wrote that James Merrill's poetry was "a net of loose talk tightening to verse." This is also a good way to describe Spencer Reece's new poetry collection, The Road to Emmaus (Farrar, Straus, and Giroux). There is a pleasant, relaxed clarity to the verse even when Reece, who recently became a priest in the Reformed Episcopal Church, talks about darkness—the darkness of the world (the neonatal ICU, where "newborns breathed, / blue, spider-delicate in nests of tubes"; a Puerto Rican mother who "weeps, her stabbed son intubated before us") and the darkness of the soul (Reece's struggles with vocation, with the call to remember the poor, with death and despair). These poems are delicate but rarely precious, serious but never sententious, religious but not dogmatic.
A prime example of Reece's delicacy—and of his skill as a storyteller—comes in "Monaco," one of the collection's best poems. First, we meet an ill-matched, unnamed couple. She, a hardened, "handsome" Frenchwoman, "made her money in the drug trade" and now sells works of art—"a Matisse here, a Picasso there." He, on the other hand, is a "tall, athletic, effeminate" American man who "looked as if he were being chased / by something no one could see." We learn of their rapid...

I have a bottle of Johnny Walker Black Label whisky, that my father got as a retirement present from his boss at a hotel, over fifty years ago.The front label says Old Scotch Whisky, produce of Scotland. the gold label at the bottom, states it's nett is 1 Pint & 6 ounces. Would anyone be able to give me ANY idea what it may be worth??
I purchased a bar a few years ago and during the renovation my contractor found a bottle of Scotch hidden in one of the a walls. I have recently taken it out of a box that i had been storing it in to examine it. It seems that it is a pre prohibition bottle from 1932. A Johnnie Walker Swing. (John Walker & Sons Ltd.) It states federal law prohibits sale or use of this bottle molded into the glass just above the shoulders of the bottle. Does anyone know what the value is?
Gold and green are no longer produced by Johnny Walker. Also, black label is the most counterfeited spirit world wide.
I like gold label
JW red is a great everyday scotch - my favorite - One part JW, One part water, One part 7up, mmmmm
Every few months I go to the best liquor store I know to buy half a dozen bottles of Scotch I haven't had; both blends and single malts. I've been doing this for about 5 years. I haven't found anything I like more than Johnny Walker Black. And there are a lot of very good Scotches out there with little known names.
Black is good, great for your everyday go-to Scotch, but far from "The ultimate." Blue is far superior than Black, but also far more expensive. However if it doesn't break the bank, get a bottle of Blue for those special occasions. On those times, my drinking friend and I would comment on how smooth Blue is, "As if you were drinking water."
If you like your Scotch more smoky, than you'll like Double Black. You can taste that it's really their Black, only they'll aged it in charred barrels to bring more of a peaty smoke flavor. I like it. I quickly picked up a second barrel because I don't see widely available. I alternate between that and their Black. Some days, you want something a little more flavor and complexity.
BTW, I purchased on-board a bottle of Double Black but haven't opened it. I'm secretly fearing I may not like it as much as [ordinary] Black. Has anyone an opinion here. I don't see much traffic on what to expect with the Double.
Come on now...the red is certainly drinkable.....it's just that after you've tried the Black, there's no going back. For my taste, the Black is the ultimate....wait, wait, I can't afford anything higher but can't imagine that they are much superior to the Black.....I would like to hear from someone who has compared Black with Blue...
Think you know the booze?
Let's start with some basics.
