This record is nothing short of amazing. I am serious, the work on this is incredible. Comparable (and in some places better, yes, I said it) than the demo version we got. You have no idea the amount of effort that must have gone into this, so if you don't like it kindly get bent and don't ruin it for anyone else.
probably not as much effort as it takes to write and record an album of original material, am i right?
It sounds amazing, if only weezer did a live opera with Rachel Haden!
To those not so enthusiastic:
This tribute finally allows us to experience Songs of the Black H*** in a coherent, fleshed-out form. Though it is produced by others, it is still Rivers' work—work that is praised, treasured, and glorified by fans, work that we've pined over for nearly two decades. As a fan base, we are privileged to have members dedicated enough to realize this work for us, because let's face it, Weezer is probably never going to produce it themselves.
As Weezer fans, please don't overlook this opportunity to experience Songs of the Black H***. I had nothing to do with the project, so I do not have that bias. I am simply delighted that I can finally listen to this record in a manner it was supposed to be heard in.
songs of the black h***, huh?
Touche. It was 3 am.

no, he just spent all night trying to spell it right.

The lead male vocals (Jonas) and the terrible guitar distortion just take away any emotion from this thing. It sounds bleh.
Thanks for putting all the effort in, but this pales in comparison to the HoM!E recordings that were released by ATW

text: I think one of the real plumbers will have to chime in here. But from a DIY perspective, I'd replace the copper with the flex line. If not, you need to inspect the copper to see if it can be reused or cut back first and see if it is long enough. If you keep the copper you may be able to reuse the compression nut if it will fit the new fitting. If you get a new elbow it may have the compression fittings on it. You'll have to make sure the flex line has the same size as the under sink fitting. I don't know about your inlet valve assembly, you'd need to research that some more.

15A NCAC 02Q .0709 DEMONSTRATIONS (a) Demonstrations. The owner or operator of a source who is applying for a permit or permit modification to emit toxic air pollutants shall: (1) (2) demonstrate to the satisfaction of the Director through dispersion modeling that the emissions of toxic air pollutants from the facility will not cause any acceptable ambient level listed in 15A NCAC 02D .1104 to be exceeded beyond the premises (adjacent property boundary); or demonstrate to the satisfaction of the Commission or its delegate that the ambient concentration beyond the premises (adjacent property boundary) for the subject toxic air pollutant shall not adversely affect human health (e.g., a risk assessment specific to the facility) though the concentration is higher than the acceptable ambient level in 15A NCAC 02D .1104 by providing one of the following demonstrations: (A) (B) the area where the ambient concentrations are expected to exceed the acceptable ambient levels in 15A NCAC 02D .1104 is not inhabitable or occupied for the duration of the averaging time of the pollutant of concern, or new toxicological data that show that the acceptable ambient level in 15A NCAC 02D .1104 for the pollutant of concern is too low and the facility's ambient impact is below the level indicated by the new toxicological data. (b) Technical Infeasibility and Economic Hardship. This Paragraph shall not apply to any incinerator covered under 15A NCAC 02D .1200. The owner or operator of any source constructed before May 1, 1990, or a perchloroethylene dry cleaning facility subject to a GACT standard under 40 CFR 63.320 through 63.325, or a combustion source as defined in Rule .0703 of this Section permitted before July 10, 2010, who cannot supply a demonstration described in Paragraph (a) of this Rule shall: (1) (2) demonstrate to the satisfaction of the Commission or its delegate that complying with the guidelines in 15A NCAC 02D .1104 is technically infeasible (the technology necessary to reduce emissions to a level to prevent the acceptable ambient levels in 15A NCAC 02D .1104 from being exceeded does not exist); or demonstrate to the satisfaction of the Commission or its delegate that complying with the guidelines in 15A NCAC 02D .1104 would result in serious economic hardship. (In deciding if a serious economic hardship exists, the Commission or its delegate shall consider market impact; impacts on local, regional and state economy; risk of closure; capital cost of compliance; annual incremental compliance cost; and environmental and health impacts.) If the owner or operator makes a demonstration to the satisfaction of the Commission or its delegate pursuant to Subparagraphs (1) or (2) of this Paragraph, the Director shall require the owner or operator of the source to apply maximum feasible control. Maximum feasible control shall be in place and operating within three years from the date that the permit is issued for the maximum feasible control. (c) Pollution Prevention Plan. The owner or operator of any facility using the provisions of Part (a)(2)(A) or Paragraph (b) of this Rule shall develop and implement a pollution prevention plan consisting of the following minimum elements: (1) (2) (3) (4) (5) statement of corporate and facility commitment to pollution prevention; identification of current and past pollution prevention activities; timeline and strategy for implementation; description of ongoing and planned employee education efforts; identification of internal pollution prevention goal selected by the facility and expressed in either qualitative or quantitative terms. The facility shall submit along with the permit application the pollution prevention plan. The pollution prevention plan shall be maintained on site. A progress report on implementation of the plan shall be prepared by the facility annually and be made available to Division personnel for review upon request. (d) Modeling Demonstration. If the owner or operator of a facility demonstrates by modeling that no toxic air pollutant emitted from the facility exceeds the acceptable ambient level values given in 15A NCAC 02D .1104 beyond the facility's premises, further modeling demonstration is not required with the permit application. However, the Commission may still require more stringent emission levels according to its analysis under 15A NCAC 02D .1107. (e) Change in Acceptable Ambient Level. When an acceptable ambient level for a toxic air pollutant in 15A NCAC 02D .1104 is changed, any condition that has previously been put in a permit to protect the previous acceptable ambient level for that toxic air pollutant shall not be changed until: (1) The permit is renewed, at which time the owner or operator of the facility shall submit an air toxic evaluation showing that the new acceptable ambient level will not be exceeded (If additional time is (2) History Note: needed to bring the facility into compliance with the new acceptable ambient level, the owner or operator shall negotiate a compliance schedule with the Director. The compliance schedule shall be written into the facility's permit and final compliance shall not exceed two years from the effective date of the change in the acceptable ambient level.): or The owner or operator of the facility requests that the condition be changed and submits along with that request an air toxic evaluation showing that the new acceptable ambient level shall not be exceeded. Authority G.S. 143-215.3(a)(1); 143-215.108; 143B-282; S.L. 1989, c. 168, s. 45; Rule originally codified as part of 15A NCAC 2H .0610; Eff. July 1, 1998; Amended Eff. July 10, 2010; February 1, 2005.

"Tonight the board decided to terminate his coaching position," Todd White of the Alabama Education Association said. "Statute of law, there's no tenure for coaching, so you can do that at any time without any due process or whatever or any kind of decision. Coach Sparks was not found guilty of doing anything wrong at all. We did win the fight to save his teaching job. Once again, we want to make it clear that there is no state law for tenure for a coaching job. They found no wrongdoing for coach Sparks, so he is going to be able to continue his teaching job."
The Star reported Sparks was placed on administrative leave Oct. 16. The last game he coached was against Lanett on Oct. 12.
White said the choice presented to Sparks was either to resign or to be fired.
"We were told that we were given on the table to either resign, or keep his coaching job to be terminated, or for him to resign from his teaching job. By law, we knew that that wasn't correct," White said, referring to an ouster from a teaching job.
Sparks stood quietly next to the room's doors as the board announced its decision on a vote of 6-1; board members had spent 40 minutes discussing the topic in an executive session. Sparks said the decision is bittersweet.
"The decision wasn't the decision that the superintendent and board wanted, obviously, but I guess I'm pleased with it under the circumstances," he said. "But you've got to understand I'm a coach and that's what I'm in the business to do, and I'm not going to be given that opportunity."
With 2012 being Sparks' third year at Randolph County and 18th season as a head football coach, he said he'll need time consider whether he wants to continue coaching.
"With almost 38 years of service, I can retire," Sparks said. "That may be an option. I've already got other options to coach so if I want to coach that won't be a problem either.
"I need to do what's best for my family and especially my son. Obviously, it's very hurtful. This decision by the board has not hurt me, but it has hurt my son and it has hurt my players. I am just sad from that perspective."
With Sparks' son, Ty, only a junior at Randolph County, and a standout quarterback on the team, he said he'll do whatever is best for his son.
Sparks compiled a 16-14 overall record at Randolph County and holds a 136-72 record as a head coach. He spent the first 15 years of his career at Wadley.

Social Studies Teaching Major BS
(Social Studies Licensure Grades 5-12)
The BS in Social Studies Teaching Option is designed to provide students with both a strong foundation in social science disciplines and the intellectual skills necessary for excellence as an urban school teacher, grades 5 through 12. The major meets the Minnesota Board of Teaching standards for social studies and combined with the program offered through the university's Urban Education Program, provides a path to licensure as a social studies teacher, grades 5-12.

- Effective social studies teachers are interdisciplinary; they can synthesize and apply core concepts from a variety of social science fields to enhance their own and their students understanding of a topic or subject area.
- Effective social studies teachers have developed a sociological imagination: they are able to link personal experience with larger socioeconomic forces and help their students do the same.
- Effective social studies teachers are culturally reflective and aware; they are willing to engage in an ongoing process of reflection and analysis of the social and cultural roots of their own values, behaviors and beliefs, and those of the students and community they will be working with.
- Effective social studies teachers are empowered; they are able to think realistically and hopefully about ways citizens can act positively to change their communities.

Northwood Robotics mentor is being recognized(WDAY TV) -- A Northwood volunteer who's helped high school students learn engineering skills for nearly a decade is now being recognized.
By: Kayla Strayer, WDAZ, WDAY
(WDAY TV) -- A Northwood volunteer who's helped high school students learn engineering skills for nearly a decade is now being recognized.
Ben Thorsgard won the regional Woody Flowers Award for being a first robotics team mentor. He was nominated by students on the Thunder Robotics Team, who submitted an essay describing their teacher.
Mike Voglewede/Northwood Robotics Mentor: "It's kind of like getting the Heisman of mentors."
Ben Thorsgard is a farmer by trade, but his passion is teaching younger generations.
Ben Thorsgard/Robotics Mentor: "Maybe I'm still a little bit of a kid myself. I just like to work with the kids on their level."
It's his lead by example mentality that students appreciate.
Cianna Leschied/Robotics Team Member: "He doesn't talk as much, but he'll show you. And he'll let you do it and help you as you're doing it."
Thorsgard says he enjoys watching students grow from knowing little about engineering, to being able to build fully functional robots, like this one nicknamed Willie Nelson.
Ben: "When they start as freshmen most of them don't know what they're doing very well. And by the time they're seniors, most of them seem to be a lot better at all this stuff."
All this "stuff" can be pretty complicated, but eye opening for these young minds.
Cianna: "It turns what some people call work, into fun and a new learning experience."
Mike: "Making the robot is a vehicle for which students learn all sorts of math and engineering skills, although they don't realize that they're learning. They're having fun building the robots and competing against other teams."
Ben: "I kind of wish something like this would have been offered when I was in high school."
Next month, Thorsgard has a chance to win the national Woody Flowers Award at the first robotics championship in St. Louis.

When Rudi Bauer accidentally takes a witch's coin, he unleashes her curse. Accident or not, he knows he's got to fix things, so he tries to return the coin, only to lose it on the witch's magic mountain just as the snows come. Plagued all winter by terrible dreams, Rudi tries to find the coin again in the spring, but it has vanished—and a plague of rats has descended on his village.
Then a stranger arrives and promises to rid the village of rats—for the price of the missing coin. Desperate to get rid of the rats, the villagers agree—but when they cannot pay, the stranger exacts a price too terrible for anyone to bear. Now Rudi is going to need all his courage—and some help from his savvy grandmother and a bold young girl—to set things right in this fast and funny adventure.

RUDI BAUER ran for his life and cursed his bad luck. He would never have touched the gold coin—much less put it in his pocket—if he'd known it belonged to a witch.
It had been a blustery morning, with more than a hint of snow stinging his nostrils, when Rudi left his warm cottage and climbed the high meadow to hunt rabbits in the shadow of the Berg. All day long he scrambled on the mountain, but his aim was crooked, or perhaps it was his slingshot. By dusk, icy pellets stabbed Rudi's hands and face, and he had nothing to show for the day but the golden guilder in his pocket and its rightful owner... see more

look: 5 | smell: 4 | taste: 4.75 | feel: 4.25 | overall: 4.75
Dark lacy concoction. Reddish hue. Light tan head persists.
Aroma of dark fruits as raisins. No hop aroma.
Rich complex malts, chocolate and vanilla dominates but loaded with cherry, brown sugar flavors too. Orange or citrus is present. Some hop bitterness way in the finish. Balanced to the malt, there are plenty of hop flavors and appropriate bitterness for a winter warmer, american style.
A little thin but clean fermentation and intense malt complexity leave palate fully satisfied.
Overall, this complex winter ale is unusual and satisfying. A little more body for a fuller mouthfeel would be a plus or just drive a little more gravity from base malt and get more warmth AND body. But this beer does not disappoint and it's unusual character and wonderful balance make this an awesome beer.

Indeed Stir Crazy Winter Ale, Minneapolis, Minnesota.
This is a pint from the second keg I've had on tap. Haven't had a chance to sit down and think about one during the span of the first keg. So, here we go…
Dark brown body, small reddish highlights at bottom and sides, small off-white, turning tan.
Aroma: earth and malt, hints of ginger, juniper and other spices, but they are only hints. Some roast in this, but not much, plenty of deep, dark malt. I like it.
Taste: Mmm. Floods the mouth with warm, happy maltiness. Not in anyway overboard in the alcohol department (6.5% ABV). Richness, but not sweetness, A little spice from the malt, and just enough hops to keep the tongue tingled. Hearty stuff. Tasty, toast, and just a little roasty. I can sit with this one, one after another. Good, good, good stuff, Indeed. I'll keep this going as long as I can!
Here's the official word on it:
Stir Crazy Winter Ale, a 6.5% abv winter warmer clocking in at 22 IBUs. Layers of malty goodness, a dark ruby colored winter warmer ale deliver satisfying notes of chocolate and rich caramel; while pulverized rasins and brown sugar provide a fruity complexity that warms you from within.
Raisins? Brown sugar? I forgot about that! Well, it didn't stick out, it just added to the wonderful stew of this complex wintry brew.
I'll say it again: Nice work! Love to see it canned, though. Maybe next year?

On tap at The Happy Gnome in St. Paul, MN.
A - A dark burgundy color with a one-finger tan head of bubbly foam. It left sudsy trails of lace.
S - Smelled malty and had a nice Christmas spice smell.
T - Tasted of rich roasted malt with some spices and piney flavors.
M - It was crisp, sharp and smooth. Medium bodied.
O - Good winter seasonal. Really impressed with the Indeed beers that I found in MN.

On-tap at the Indeed taproom. Tasted 15 November 2012, reviewed from notes.
Pours deep reddish brown. Plenty of yellowish tan head, but poured nearly to the brim. An archipelago of lacing ringing the glass.
Smell is malty and lightly spiced. Smells a lot like a spiced dubbel. Mildly sweet. Nice.
More spice in the taste, and less sweet. Great depth and variety of flavors. Lightly roast, a touch of bitterness that provides really nice balance. Nutmeg is the most prominent spice flavor.
Mouthfeel if medium-bodied, with fuzzy carbonation. Lasting. I dig it.
Heck of a beer. Just really balanced, with lots going on in a compact package. Roasty, spiced, smooth, and delicious.

Pours near pitch black, half finger of deep tan head, nice lacing
Smell is vanilla, deep chocolate, roasted matls and not much else
Taste is deep chocolate, dark fruit raison and plum, vanilla, cherry notes, toffee and caramel, finishes with more chocolate taste
Mouthfeel is medium light, a little heavy on the carbonation, could use some more body
Good beer, would be a nice change of pace beer. Interesting blend of a lot of flavors, really lacks in the body department though.

very easy drinking winter warmer, sort of modeling itself on a belgian quad, at least in terms of malt bill and flavor notes, but drinking a whole lot easier. the can says brown sugar, but i don't get a lot of that after the head has settled well enough for me to take a big whiff. i get the vanilla, and i really get the raisins, apparently pureed or something before added to the kettle. all the sugar that should be here is fermented out, this is not at all sweet for what it is, a testament to the yeast, which has cleaned the beer up nicely without imparting a ton of flavor. balance with the additives in taste, but the vanilla is the strongest. fuller bodied but honestly just a bit light for the style. like that we have a winter warmer here without all the usual spice accompaniment. i would buy this, great use of raisins too

Produced a finger, and a half of beige head. Beer color is a dark mahogany, (just about translucent).
Smell is of dark fruit, biscuit, brown sugar. Nice, would be nicer if it was a bit stronger.
Taste is similar, but with some added dark chocolate taste, and light hop bitterness. Medium mouth-feel, and carbonation.
Good seasonal!

Pours out dark as night with a tiny brown head that dissipated right away. Smell is of raisins and other dark fruit. I really don't get much else from the nose. Taste is much like the nose. Really I only get dark fruits, maybe a little brown sugar, really just not that much going on but it is pretty tasty but nothing special to be sure. Mouthfeel is ironically slightly thick even though it seems not very carbonated. Just not a very complex beer in my opinion. It tastes OK and I wouldn't not drink it but it's not anything that I would buy again.

Pours out a deep dark brown with a light white head and not much retention. Deep malty aroma, smells like husky English malts, cocoa and dried fruit. Flavor is balanced to slightly sweet with brown sugar and chocolate, dark fruit and a bit of roastiness showing through. Raisins and vanilla add a nice touch. Hops show up on the finish as a light bitterness. Mouthfeel is lacking a bit – on the thin side and bubbly.
Overall, I enjoyed this much more than I was expecting considering how much I disliked Old Friend. Interesting and light enough to have a few in one sitting. Will purchase again.
Edit: had another six pack and had to bump it up. Lot of nice flavors here packed into a 6.5% beer.

From the can: " A new season means new adventures. We created STIR CRAZY Winter Ale to warm you from within during the coldest time of year. Our sturdy winter warmer is brewed with cocoa nibs, vanilla, raisins and brown sugar. Layers of malty goodness create a dark ruby color and satisfying notes of chocolate and rich caramel, while pulverized raisins and brown sugar provide a fruity complexity. Bundle up and enjoy!"
I have had many beers brewed with cocoa/cacao, but none that quite accomplished what this beer does. Everything is in balance. It is deeply chocolate-infused, without being sweet. Everything is tamed, including tannins. This is really good stuff -- a vast improvement over the first year's offering.
For me, this is Indeed's most drinkable beer yet. I simply can't stop at one.

look: 3.5 | smell: 3.5 | taste: 3.5 | feel: 4 | overall: 3.5
Very dark brown color with one finger of head that settled to a thin cap. Some spotty lacing is left down the glass.
Aroma is mostly dark fruit, raisins, and cocoa which is very strong.
All the added flavors dominate the beer. A lot of cocoa and vanilla. Also the brown sugar is noticeable. It all blends together well but it is also a bit overwhelming. No sign of alcohol.
Medium body and nicely carbonated.
Too many competing flavors for me. I am sure many will like the cocoa and vanilla mix.

A- Very dark garnet, with a bigger than one finger tan head. Retention is pretty good. Almost no signs of lacing.
S- Smell is vanilla, a bit of raisin and a bit of sweetness. Even as it warms, I find it to be mild, but pleasant, on the nose
T- First taste is a bit of dark liquor (rum raisin like), a big kick of vanilla. Sweetness hits the tongue and lasts till the finish. The finish has just a hint of roasty/chocolatey flavor to it.
M- Not quite enough body to it for the style. Carbonation is light, fairly smooth. Finish is somewhat long.
O- Other than the somewhat weak mouthfeel, I really liked this one. Good, complex flavors and a good winter beer.

Pours a dark ruddy brown with a trace tan head and no lacing. Smells of figs, chocolate, dried cherry, caramel. I can taste the chocolate nibs, figs or possibly raisins, dark dried fruit, caramel. Body is medium light. Carbonation is a bit weak. Overall the miscellaneous flavors aren't working for me.

look: 2.75 | smell: 3.5 | taste: 3.5 | feel: 3.5 | overall: 3.5
Appearance: Dark brown, small, fast-fading head.
Smell: Mild chocolate, vanilla, spices.
Taste: Spices (cinnamon, ginger) then shifts to moderate chocolate with some vanilla and coffee flavors. The spices show up again in the finish.
Overall: Supporting this local and 12oz cans. It's an interesting mix of flavors but doesn't really make a clear statement. Not a stout with strong chocolate/coffee and not amped up spicy winter beer, just in the middle between those. Decent enough but not really to my tastes.

A- very dark red appearing black or very brown, tan head, receds too quickyl and leaves a thin layer and little lace
S- sweet balanced with roast, cacao nibs, sweet coco, some tangy zesty smell I cant really put my finger on, Im guessing that is the raisin. Oh, its kind of a Cola smell.
T- Cacao and vanilla up front, roast balances out well, I'm glad they dried it out to balance, vanilla lingers on, little to no hop flavor, again that strange tang that I'm guessing comes from the raisins. Its that Cola flavor
M- Well dried out to encourage drinkability, if it we less attenuated I think it might be difficult to drink much of.
O- This has been my least favorite Indeed, all their other stuff is much better. To be honest I think it is just way too convoluted and over-engineered. The can reads like a cake recipe, cacao nibs, vanilla, raisins, brown sugar AND natural flavors, whatever those may be. I dont think they needed to add all those extras, each one on its own or with one more ingredient might have led to more complimentary flavors, but the kitchen sink approach didn't result in a successful beer for me.

look: 4 | smell: 4.25 | taste: 4.25 | feel: 4.25 | overall: 4.5
Poured from a 12 oz. can into an Indeed shaker glass. Canned on 11/03/13.
Appearance: Pours a dark brownish black with a hint of amber. Moderate amount of bubbles and one finger of light tan head that fades into a thin creamy layer. Leaves a decent amount of lacing on the glass.
Smell: A sweet and roasty malt driven aroma with good dark hints of chocolate and dark fruit. Dark roasted malts with hints of cocoa nibs, mild roast coffee, milk, biscuit, grains, toast, caramel, toffee, and yeast. Sweet hints of creamy vanilla and brown sugar. Dark fruit hints of raisins and fig. Mild hints of cinnamon and nutmeg spicing. Hops are very laid back. A pretty good aroma.
Taste: Like the aroma, a sweet and roasty dark malt driven taste with nice notes of chocolate and dark fruit. Upfront dark roasted barley malt with notes of cocoa nibs, coffee roast, caramel, toffee, lactose, cream, toast, biscuit, grains, and yeast. Sweet taste of vanilla and brown sugar. Dark fruit presence with notes of raisins, fig, and plum. Light notes of cinnamon and nutmeg spice. Subtle earthy hop presence in the background. A pretty good taste.
Mouthfeel: Medium bodied with a moderate amount of carbonation. Very creamy, silky, and smooth. Sweet but far from cloying.
Overall: A very good spin on a Winter beer. Its more like a twist on a Milk/Sweet Stout than the typical Winter Warmer. Good creamy chocolate taste with a nice dark fruit undertone.

Pours dark reddish brown with a small light tan head which fades quickly, leaving no lacing. Has an interesting aroma with cocoa nibs, dark fruit, vanilla, spices, and brown sugar. Smells like it will be sweet.
Tastes just like it smells with cocoa nibs, dark fruit, vanilla, spices, and brown sugar. Has a sweet flavor with no hop bitterness.
Medium bodied with modest carbonation. Has a cocoa nib and dark fruit aftertaste. A pretty good beer, but I'm not sure if all of the flavors compliment each other real well. Glad I at least picked up a single can to try this.

12oz can labeled "Dust Bowl Suds Canned on 11/03/13"
Look is a dark cola color, can't see thru to the other side to spot chunks. Smell is figs, fresh cut grass, sweet molasses and ginger. Taste is great: it starts out with crisp chocolate malts that fade into an excellent sweet meld of holiday spice and fruit. It reminds me of a cross between Monkey Bread and ribbon candy, but tasty.
Not a big winter beer fan, but this is first class all the way. Just needs less nibs.

Dark amber/light brown color with a creamy head of foam that leaves some lacing.
Getting cola with some vanilla extract in the nose.
Dusty cocoa up front followed by some cola, raisin and spice. Vanilla and sugar cookie comes in at the end along with some earthy and bitter hops. More chocolate comes into play as it warms. Nice array of flavor. Very fall tasting.
The mouthfeel is nice and smooth, but it does feel lighter than a 6.5% beer.
A great take on a winter warmer. This would make a great Thanksgiving/Christmas beer. Very holiday like in flavor and easy drinking too.

Original review from 2012 750ml bottling. Edits for 2013 canning at the bottom.
Serving glass: Poured from bottle into Imperial Pint.
Appearance: Very dark ruby with nice tan head and respectable lacing.
Smell: Sweet and fruity, with plum, figs, cherry and raisins. Caramel and spicy, floral notes as well.
Taste: Sweet core of caramel and dark fruits. Hard to identify everything going on here. While raisins may be present, I am getting more plums and cherry. Despite the low IBUs, I am getting some definite floral and spicy notes on the finish from the hops. Definitely not bitter though.
Feel: Medium to full body with light but lively carbonation. Fairly smooth overall, and the finish has a surprising amount of dryness.
Overall: I was a little scared of this beer, as with the low IBUs and the addition of raisins and brown sugar, I was expecting a really cloying beer. This is not cloying at all. While it is fairly sweet, it has a nice balance and strong drinkability. Impressive.
Edit for 2013 canning: Much more chocolate in the aroma and taste, maybe a little more chocolate than I would prefer, which begins to bother me about halfway through the can. The addition of vanilla is more subtle in the aroma, but provides a nice extra finish to the beer that I like. I liked it better before, and my average dropped from a 4.3 to a 3.6. I am sure the chocolate will garner the beer more attention, but not what I wanted.

How might fibrodysplasia ossificans progressiva be treated?
There is currently no definitive treatment. However, a brief course of high-dose corticosteroids, such as Prednisone, started within the first 24 hours of a flare-up, may help reduce the intense inflammation and tissue swelling seen in the early stages of fibrodysplasia ossificans progressiva. Other medications, such as muscle relaxants, mast cell inhibitors, and aminobisphosphonates, if appropriate, should be closely monitored by a physician. Surgery to remove heterotopic and extra-skeletal bone is risky and can potentially cause painful new bone growth. [1]

The Pikkolo has an adjustable base which allows both small babies to be legs out and also any baby to face forward while still sitting ergonomically. I tried it out, immediately, with my 3yo son, and was amazed at how comfy it was, even with him. The baby was far more..." --HeatherB

Ever since I started using one almost two years ago, I have yet to find a carrier with all its benefits.

" I purchased my Scootababy when my DD got too heavy for me to wear in our ring sling without a lot of neck/ shoulder cramping. It is very easy to use and I can wear her on my hip or my back. The back is high for her long torso. I love it it has been worth every penny. " --HeliMom

Keothavong knocked out in Shenzhen
British number three Anne Keothavong was knocked out of the WTA Shenzhen Longgang Gemdale Open by China's Peng Shuai on Monday morning.
The Londoner, who won over the weekend to qualify for the main draw, was beaten 6-4 6-0 by the sixth seed in the first round.
Laura Robson, the British number two, on Sunday moved into the second round in Shenzhen with a 6-2 6-1 triumph over Romania's Edina Gallovits-Hill.
