Master of Malt was founded in 1985 as a retailer and bottler of whisky and fine spirits and we are proud to present our rather excellent range of single cask whiskies. Single malt is legally obliged to be aged in oak casks for a minimum of three years to be able to call it-self whisky. However each cask of whisky is inherently unique; even if there were two casks from the same distillery, filled at the same time, in the same type and shape of cask, next to each other in the warehouse, aged for the same amount of time, essentially identical twins, they would still be different. Like identical twins they may be very similar to one another, wear the same packaging, have flavours in common, but they will still be individuals and this is why single cask whisky is fun, because by their very nature they are limited releases, when the cask is finished no more of the same can ever be produced.We seek high and low to find the very best casks we can and then we bottle them as they are. We leave them at natural cask strength and wouldn't dream of chill-filtering any of the goodness out of the whisky. Finally, hands on heart, we shudder at the merest suggestion of adding even the smallest drop caramel colouring, so the whisky looks as it does in the cask, naked as it were.We also offer 3cl whisky samples of as many of our own bottlings as possible, to give you the opportunity to try before you buy. Plus, if you're looking for an extra special gift, we are more than happy to personalise anything from our own range.

Re: Tailgating
"You don't want to be too much of a stickler, you just want people to have a good time."
Noted. I'll just tell the friendly SPD who tries to cite me the next time I get hassled for having an open container in the park that he's being "a stickler", and he'll just hand me a flyer, right?
Another clear example of: "when one person does it, it's a crime; when 10,000 people do it, it's an indiscretion".
Here's some news: Venus pleads not guilty.
"I made a mistake," she said after her arraignment. "The responsibility is here. The blame is no one else's but my own."
When asked what, exactly, she accepted blame for, she replied "for driving and not taking a cab."
Are you serious? I'm not guilty, so please don't fine me or put me on probation. But i'm taking responsibility for not taking a cab even though I wasn't drunk and am not guilty.
WTF kind of definition of "taking responsibility" is she operating on?
Slodance in the hizzouse.

Fred F. French

|Real estate developer

Fred F. French Building
Frederick Fillmore French (October 14, 1883 – August 30, 1936) was a real estate developer.
He was born in Manhattan, New York City on October 14, 1883 and attended the Horace Mann School.[1] He built Tudor City, a housing development on Manhattan's East Side, for the rising middle class in the 1920s.[2] He also developed Knickerbocker Village, middle-class housing on the Lower East Side between the Brooklyn Bridge and the Manhattan Bridge. His original intention for the project was to build housing for "junior Wall Street executives".[3] His Fred F. French Building is a well-known skyscraper on Fifth Avenue in Midtown.
French and his company served as the developer and landlord of Knickerbocker Village, important in the history of landlord–tenant law. When the tenants were to take possession of their apartments, they found conditions to be unlivable.[4] Facilities were either unfinished or poorly equipped, including non-working elevators and inoperable laundry rooms.[5] The tenants formed the Knickerbocker Village Tenants Association and started a strike, withholding their rent checks until their grievances were dealt with. The conflict that arose from the tenants' dissatisfaction led to New York City's rent control laws.
He died on August 30, 1936 in Pawling, New York of a heart attack.[6][7]
The life of Fred F French and his contribution to the development of New York City was covered in detail by Alexander Rayden in "The People's City, A History of the Influence and Contribution of Mass Real Estate Syndication in the Development of New York City". www.thepeoplescity.com [8]

In 1929 Realtor Fred Fillmore French began buying land on the lower East Side. By swearing his 42 brokers to secrecy and using dummy corporations, he managed to get some 15 acres for $5,000,000. Then in 1931 he announced a grandiose scheme for the erection of a $50,000,000 development for junior Wall Street executives. At this point he found that he could not get credit. At the same time Fred F. French Operators, Inc. began passing its dividends on $14,000,000 of preferred stock. The project remained only a scheme with a staggering upkeep in land taxes.

Electorate secretary Greg Presland said the committee would
meet tonight to decide if a complaint would be laid and what
the nature of that complaint would be.
"We are concerned about the ways in which it was dealt with
over the past few days."
Yesterday Labour leader David Shearer was unanimously
endorsed by the party's 34 MPs after he called an urgent vote
to put to rest speculation of a leadership challenge.
Mr Shearer demoted Cunliffe to the back bench, stripping him
of his economic development portfolio, for undermining him
during last weekend's party conference and refusing to back
him as leader.
Mr Presland said he sat with Mr Cunliffe throughout the
conference and did not see anything wrong with his behaviour.
He said there was an element of "sabotage" in the way Mr
Cunliffe had been treated.
Mr Presland said it was unreasonable to expect Mr Cunliffe to
say how he would vote over the leadership on February 13 next
year, when other MPs within the Labour Party also refused to
say how they would vote.
A name, residential address, and (preferably residential) telephone number is required from readers who comment on ODT Online. These details will not be visible to site visitors.
Cunliffe could well consider there are alternatives to
Shearer, as leader of the Labour Party, if Shearer doesn't
pick up and they don't necessarily include him. Think Grant
Robertson. Think Jacinda Adern.

I am writing to urge the Juneau Assembly to pass the proposed ordinance eliminating secondhand smoke from public places and workplaces.
Over 53,000 non-smokers die each year as a result of diseases caused by exposure to secondhand smoke. Many asthmatics, including myself, endure frightening asthma attacks after breathing secondhand smoke.
I look forward to the day when I can walk into all of Juneau's restaurants without wondering if I will have to leave due to the presence of secondhand smoke.

The poets took their autoharps, their berry cobblers, and bottles of burgundy to the Camden pizzeria Tuesday night, but the mood could not be called festive. They were meeting for the first time since Rocky Wilson got rolled.
Rocky - wearing a jester's hat over his graying Endless Summer hair and holding a monkey puppet on his right arm - called the session to order.
"Some people have heard I had a mishap on Sept. 5."
He told the fanciful version, the one that chronicles Bongo's wild ride. At the first sign of trouble, the monkey managed to jump from Rocky's bicycle and dive into the Delaware, where a floating log and a kindly whale ferried him to safety in Cape May, where a friend found him at a gift store, looking surprisingly fresh.

PREVIEWS: "Daredevil," "Uncanny X-Men," & More Marvel Comics On Sale August 3, 2016
Comic Books
If you're a fan of Jonathan Hickman and Dustin Weaver's incredibly imaginative, layered and awesome SHIELD book for Marvel, you'll want to check out this post from Weaver's LiveJournal. The artist shares several "extras" from the book, including a variant cover sketch, "quiet math" equations and the uncensored version of a panel featuring Isaac Newton having sex with a Deviant, which I'll include after a SPOILERS WARNING for issue 3 and a NSFW warning …
If you haven't read SHIELD #3 yet, it details the secret history of Isaac Newton and his journey to the Deviant City of Ashomia. The Deviants, you may remember, are the evil counterparts to the Eternals, and Newton has sex with one of them to get what he wants.
The panel used in the comic, however, isn't the one Weaver originally drew for it … the artist talks about censoring it at Marvel's request:
There. Do you feel scandalized, offended, disturbed? Well you should. He's having sex with a monster. It should be disturbing, gross, a little sexy, and then that much more disturbing. I wanted it to be perfectly clear what was going on. I think Marvel wanted it to be vague. Regardless of a choice to be more or less explicit for story telling reasons, I find this censorship depressing. Sex is a part of life and I think we need to just grow up about it. On top of that sex is all over comics. Many super hero comics are down right pornographic. The shot that I've drawn is tame in comparison to the tits, asses, and crouches that are being thrust directly in your face on a regular bases in comics. If they had a problem with the fact that it's not sexy sex with sexy people, that it's Isaac Newton fucking a monster well then they shouldn't have asked me to draw it.
I actually did the censoring myself, at their request. I thought it would be better to do it myself than leave it up to someone ells. I'm not trying to rock the boat or make some kind of stand against censorship. I can make compromises and be a team player. That doesn't mean that I don't think it's silly. Even after I added the blanket and got rid of the monster's leg they still asked Christina, the colorist, to bring the blanket up a little bit more. Arbitrary censorship for censorship's sake or did that tiny bit of boob make a difference.
Newton's use of Liebniz notation in the Quiet Math annoys me a lot.
Oh, so THIS is "that panel" that everyone on the Webz is all up in a tizzy over? Or at least, a few people made less-than-thrilled comments about it that I've seen.
That…that's hardly anything, really. I bet if it was Newton screwing an Eternal, who look like normal humans, Marvel might not have even censored it, or not to the extent they did here. Seriously, Mr. Weaver is correct; this kind of censorship is silly nonsense, especially when we've got characters like Psylocke – who is only wearing cloathes in the most painted-on way possible – quite literally ninja-kicking bad guys crotch first at every given opportunity, and then standing around with her bare ass to the "camera" when at rest.
Besides…sex with horrible monsters is just kind of something that happens in life, you know? Newton probably went and invented Beer Goggles after this…
What goes up, must CENSORED down, I guess.
I really hope that after I die, no one draws me into a comic book fucking a monster.
"Sex is a part of life and I think we need to just grow up about it."
So is taking a dump, but no one wants to see characters sitting on a toilet and crapping.
I am so sick of fans turned pro who insist on using books and characters set in a fictional universe originally created for kids/all ages (and is still marketed towards that same demographic outside of the comics industry) into to tell "adult" stories or depict scenes of on panel sex and graphic violence. Either grow the hell up and stop acting like a bunch of horny 13 year old fanboys or create something new and outside the MU and DCU where you can tell more "adult" stories and draw scenes of humans having sex with monsters.
I dunno, but I have a sudden craving for Pizza Hut. I wonder if they knew they'd have ads plastered all over a post like this… :d
…"a little sexy"? Not even slightly. Looks more like a fight scene.
Rikk Odinson:
"I really hope that after I die, no one draws me into a comic book fucking a monster."
I hope that after I die, somebody DOES draw me into a comic fucking a monster. Heck, I hope somebody draws me into a comic fucking a monster right now.
So this is the reason this book is bi-monthly, too busy drawing human on Deviant action.
Sure as hell see Isaac Newton in a whole new light after reading that issue, that's for sure.
As long as no one draws a monster into a comic book fucking ME.
I found this panel way more disturbing and not even remotely sexy. Although I will agree that I think the difference between this and the final product is silly. Either way I would have thrown up in my mouth a little.
I think what really made this panel (that's missing here) was the narration box.
I just wanted to jump on and say that I don't blame anyone at Marvel for feeling the need to be sensitive about this particular scene. I'm not sure that I expressed myself as clearly as I should have in this post. What I really find depressing is that we DO have to be sensitive to this sort of thing. I realize that I'm not the one who has to deal with the complaints and problems that this sort of stuff can bring. The folks at Marvel do. What I think is acceptable is probably not acceptable to a lot of people. And I DID want to do something acceptable. I'm not the type of person who wants to offend anyone.
I edited my post on my sight to better mean what I wanted it to mean. I guess I hadn't realized that anyone was paying attention and didn't express my feelings as well as I should have. Frankly, I'm kind of a dummy.
Oh and the thing about it being "a little sexy," I was joking. Of course monster sex isn't sexy. What kind of sicko finds monster sex sexy, with the horns and the teeth, and that sweet sweet bulbous head.
What I find even more depressing than that silly deviant action (really? missionary position with an fugly monster?) is the rape of the character of Isaac Newton. My all time super-hero scientist.
A genius of unparralled achievement who imagined an invisible force which held the cosmos together. To believe in something invisible in that day and age and then to mathematically prove it is one hell of a thing.
& how do we acknowledge this genius – by drawing him having sex with a deviant! Jesus, I got over this juvenile crap by the age of 5!
Why does everyone keep referring to this scene as juvenile? It's not a "Look! Boobs!" type of scene. It's important in illustrating Newton's sacrifices in route to ultimately deciding to seize control of SHEILD. Sex isn't innately juvenile just because it's in a comic book. Concordently, while I don't find it offensive, the edited version gets the point across just as effectively as this one. I'm not sure what other way that scene could be interpreted, censored or not.

Well they could have just showed the female Deviant approach Newton, drop her robe then cut to a scene showing the two laying in bed cuddled up after just having sex. That's how they would have done it back in the pre Quesada CCA days. I am sosick of fans turned pro who insist that they have to show almost everything when it comes to violence,sex,and language.
re: Blade X
Dude, your proposed method of showing a "sex scene" is so watered down, and repeated in almost every damn book, I am so utterly happy Weaver didn't execute such a cliche'd scene. SHIELD is not a kids' book, it doesn't need to be trying to make everything "kiddie safe." If you are so upset about this, go back to reading your Archive editions and let new storytellers take these characters someplace new.

re: Jackass
1. I don't read, nor have I ever read an Archie book.
2. SHIELD is a book using characters originally created for kids/all ages and set in a fictional universe created for kids/all ages. So to aim this book solely at older teens and adults is stupid and selfish.
3. If you want to read comics with people and/or monsters having sex, you should read IDW,Vertigo,and some of the small press porno comics out there.

The accident happened when a heli-ski flight operated from
Queenstown by The Helicopter Line, with seven men on board,
crashed on the north face of Mt Alta about 12.20pm, Senior
Sergeant Gavin Briggs said.
The helicopter was carrying a pilot, ski guide and five
skiers, all of whom were New Zealanders, and one person was
confirmed dead, he said.
The survivors had been flown off the mountain by rescue
helicopters, he said.
An Otago Daily Times reporter said five of the injured men
had been flown first to the Wanaka Medical Centre, with four
taken inside on stretchers while one was able to walk in.
However, Snr Sgt Briggs said four had since been flown to
Dunedin Hospital in a serious but stable condition.
Their injuries were not believed to be life-threatening, he
Civil Aviation Authority and Transport Accident Investigation
Commission staff would be investigating, and the names of
those involved would be released once next of kin had been
notified, he said.
