It's our turn: the Bay Area honors "Flicka" with a special retirement tribute December 3, 2011
For the past year, the beloved opera superstar Frederica von Stade, a long-time Bay Area resident affectionately known as "Flicka," has been making farewell appearances and the great opera houses and concert halls worldwide, whose stages she has graced for the past 40 years have been paying tribute, one by one. Now, it's the Bay Area's turn. On Saturday, December 3, 2011, San Francisco Opera, San Francisco Performances, Cal Performances, Philharmonia Baroque Orchestra and the San Francisco Conservatory of Music will join in an unprecedented team effort to celebrate the illustrious life and career of our treasured mezzo, arts advocate, and musical celebrity.
Eight extraordinary artists and friends of von Stade─and some as of yet unannounced surprise guests─ will lead the special one night only musical tribute, joined by von Stade and accompanied by Jake Heggie, John Churchwell and Bryndon Hassman: Sir Thomas Allen, baritone; Susannah Biller, soprano; Zheng Cao, mezzo-soprano; Joyce DiDonato, mezzo-soprano; Susan Graham, mezzo-soprano; Dame Kiri Te Kanawa, soprano; Samuel Ramey, bass; and Richard Stilwell, baritone.
The concert will feature highlights from von Stade's expansive performance and recording career, including arias from Mozart's Le Nozze di Figaro, Strauss's Der Rosenkavalier, Rossini's La Cenerentola and Monteverdi's Il Ritorno d'Ulisse in Patria; songs by Ravel, Mahler, Poulenc and Berlioz; selections from American musical theater; and contemporary songs by Jake Heggie. The evening will also feature personal tributes and recollections of working with Ms. von Stade.
An intimate gala reception with the artists in the lobby of the War Memorial Opera House will follow the performance, with proceeds supporting University of California Berkeley's Young Musicians Program and the St. Martin de Porres Catholic School in Oakland.
What's it like to work with Flicka? Rauli Garcia, who is the CFO of HGO (Houston Grand Opera) made his stage debut as a supernumerary in Dead Man Walking earlier this year and his account "What a rush!"was posted on the HGO (Houston Grand Opera) blog on January 31, 2011.
Recognized as one of the most beloved musical figures of our time, mezzo-soprano Frederica von Stade began at the very top, receiving a contract from Sir Rudolf Bing during the Metropolitan Opera auditions and since her debut has enriched classical music for over four decades with appearances in opera, concert and recital. The first aria in her career was Thomas's "Connais-tu le pays". Von Stade has sung nearly all the great roles with the Met and in 2000, the company celebrated the 30th anniversary of her debut with a new production of The Merry Widow. She made her 1971 San Francisco Opera debut as Sextus (La Clemenza di Tito) with Spring Opera Theater and her main stage debut in 1972 as Cherubino (Le Nozze di Figaro), and has appeared with San Francisco Opera in more than a dozen roles, including Mélisande (Pelléas et Mélisande), Octavian (Der Rosenkavalier), Rosina (Il Barbiere di Siviglia), Countess Geschwitz (Lulu) and the title roles of La Sonnambula, La Cenerentola, and The Merry Widow. She created two roles in world premiere productions by San Francisco Opera: Marquise de Merteuil in Conrad Susa's The Dangerous Liaisons and Mrs. Patrick de Rocher in Jake Heggie's Dead Man Walking; she also created the role of Madeline Mitchell in Jake Heggie's chamber opera Three Decembers, presented in its West Coast premiere by San Francisco Opera and Cal Performances in 2008.
Known as a bel canto specialist, von Stade is also beloved in the French repertoire, including the title role of Offenbach's La Périchole. She is also a favorite interpreter of the great "trouser" roles, from Strauss's Composer (Ariadne auf Naxos) and Octavian to Mozart's Sextus, Idamante (Idomeneo), and Cherubino. Von Stade's artistry has inspired the revival of neglected works such as Massenet's Chérubin, Ambroise Thomas's Mignon, Rameau's Dardanus, and Monteverdi's Il Ritorno d'Ulisse in Patria, and she has garnered critical and popular acclaim in her vast French orchestral repertoire, including Ravel's Shéhérazade, Berlioz's Les Nuits d'Été and Canteloube's Les Chants d'Auvergne. She is well known to audiences around the world through her numerous featured appearances on television including several PBS specials and "Live from Lincoln Center" telecasts.
Miss von Stade has made over seventy recordings with every major label, including complete operas, aria albums, symphonic works, solo recital programs, and popular crossover albums. Her recordings have garnered six Grammy nominations, two Grand Prix du Disc awards, the Deutsche Schallplattenpreis, Italy's Premio della Critica Discografica, and "Best of the Year" citations by Stereo Review and Opera News. She has enjoyed the distinction of holding simultaneously the first and second places on national sales charts for Angel/EMI's Show Boat and Telarc's The Sound of Music.
Von Stade was appointed as an officer of France's L'Ordre des Arts et des Lettres in 1998, France's highest honor in the Arts, and in 1983 she was honored with an award given at the White House by President Reagan. She holds five honorary doctorates from Yale University, Boston University, the San Francisco Conservatory of Music (which holds a Frederica von Stade Distinguished Chair in Voice), the Georgetown University School of Medicine, and her alma mater, the Mannes School of Music.

1 would turn a knife on you, too' By Dr. Dave Gonzales, Ph.D. "I would turn a knife on you, too," Clyde Bellecourt said when I mentioned some youth at a friend's house had once threatened me with a knife. This was the last day of a 52-day spiritual canoe journey I wrote the proposal for, organized, and canoed on. I was disappointed at his violent nature. All that I had read in the Native American Press of Clyde Bellecourt being a bully who intimidated community people came to mind. It's true. It's a power struggle, I thought. He wants to take all the credit for the spiritual canoe journey when in reality I organized it. He wants to be the only leader in the indigenous communities in Minnesota, even if others do the work. At a time when he is being exposed as a bully and a violent person by others, he's pressured to put on an image of someone who is responsible to the communities. He's not. We received $10,000 from the McKnight Foundation; $11,00 from Mystic Lake; $5,000 from Prairie Island; $5,000 from American Indian OIC in Minneapolis, and other funds from various places, adding up to approximately $40,000 for the canoe journey. During the 52-day journey roughly $1,500 was used for food, according to Lenny Butcher, who navigated the journey on the river. "We got hamburger helper without the hamburger and deer meat that was frost bitten and not good to eat." He added, "I even had to use $200 of my own money." Actually, $1,300 was used for food. "We got a few dollars for all that work on the river," 'Fish' Fisher said, who also navigated the journey. "Tell the truth." When I told Lenny Butcher that Clyde Bellecourt used some unfounded reason to try to take over the leadership of the journey I organized, Lenny said, "He canoed less than 20 days total." We were sitting at his workshop at his house in Bemidji, September 2, 1994. I canoed the first 10 days from Lake Itasca to Bemidji, then to Ball Club, organizing, and bringing more youths to the river. I canoed on and off until the 52-day journey stopped at Little Falls, about three days from St. Paul where we would finish the trip. I met with the Mystic Lake site person, and went to Midwest Mountaineering Store to request two canoes, and borrowed six canoes from my university, Bemidji State University, plus wrote press releases, and so on. When the youths went to the Sundance at Pipestone for a week in August, I went to Mille Lacs and organized the Rum river canoe journey. I spoke at the White Earth Pow wow and the Ball Club Pow wow to promote our journey. I also researched at the University of Minnesota Wilson Knife cont'd on page 3 Clyde turns knife happy/ pg 1 Criticism on Miss, rip-off aired/ pg 1 Trial date set on RL election suit/ pg 1 Where did HOTESS money go?/ pg 4 Finn demo in front of Eagles club/ pg 8 Voice ofthe Anishinabeg (The People) 1 White Earth TC dismisses election protest Fifty Cents Ojibwwi mews We Support Equal Opportunity For All People By Gary Blair The FBI has requested and obtained a copy of the August 19, 1994, vote protest findings of the White Earth Reservation Tribal Court. Former reservation council member Danny Stevens filed the protest with the Minnesota Chippewa Tribe's Appellate Court after he was defeated in the June general election by incumbent Secretary/Treasurer Jerry Rawley. On August 15, 1994, the Appellate Court ordered the reservation's tribal court to form a Special Election Review Board. After a mutual agreement fromZenas Baer, Steven's attorney, and Peter Cannon, the reservation's attorney, Gary Frazer, Executive Director of the Minnesota Chippewa Tribe and Patricia Keogh, an alternate were selected. The FBI's interest in the election has to do with the use of the U.S. mail to transport the absentee ballots that were called into questioned in Steven' s complaint. If the FBI finds that the mail was used to commit election fraud, federal charges could be brought against those who committed the violations. In previous White Earth elections, incumbents Jerry Rawley and reservation chairman Chip Wadena have only won one time with the on-reser- vation vote. Their subsequent successes have been with the highly controversial absentee vote. The court's findings on the election protest are as follows: "The Court finds that 297 absentee ballots are questioned because they were all notarized on the same day in many parts of the state and across the county. "The Court finds that 23 absentee ballots were cast because the signatures did not match up. The Court will count 11 of these ballots as errors as 12 are counted twice as errors. "It is the Court's findings that 310 absentee ballots have substantial ir regularity or deviations from the 'Procedure For Voting Absentee' as instructed by the Appellate Court. "The 310 absentee ballots do not meet the threshold of 315 absentee ballots as evidence of grave and substantial irregularity if a trial was held." Chief Judge Tammy J. Stromstad issued an opinion on August 10,1994, which states that "Finally the Tribal Court's determination that evidence of irregularity in 315 ballots will constitute a basis for a full hearing was not an arbitrary decision. It is true that Jerry Rawley won by a margin of 630 votes, giving the Appellant the benefit ofthe doubt, if at least 315 of those votes are declared invalid, the possibility exists that those votes, if properly cast, would have been cast in favor ofthe Appellant, creating a tie. "Therefore, 315 was the minimal number of votes which could affect the outcome of the election, as die- Election cont'd on pg 3 Founded in 1988 Volume 6 Issue 11 September 9, 1994 1 A weekly publication. Copyright, The Ojibwe Mews, 1 994 Court sets trial dates for Red Lake election suits By Bill Lawrence Red Lake Nation Special Tribal Judge Eugene L. DeLorme scheduled trial dates for the Julius Thunder election suit on Friday September, 16th at 10:00 a.m. and the Stillday, Westbrook, Stately and Schoenborn combined suit on Monday September, 19th at 11:00 a.m. By Interim Order filed on August 24, 1994, Judge DeLorme ruled that the Red Lake Tribal Court had jurisdiction to hear the election suit despite the assertion of the defense of sovereign immunity by the Red Lake Tribal Council. Judge DeLorme based his decision on the Doctrine of Qualified Immunity which only affords officials protection when their actions or inactions were within the scope of their official authority. In reaching his decision Judge DeLorme said "the tribe as a sovereign did not authorize its employees or elected officials to violate the law. Thus, sovereign immunity is not an absolute bar to suit. Officials or employees may be sued for acting beyond the scope of their authority." The decision set a precedent for the Red Lake Nation court because it was the first time in the history ofthe court that the tribal council's assertion of the defense of sovereign immunity was rejected. With Judge DeLorme now scheduled to conduct the trials of the election suits on the merits, it would appear that the tribal council will comply with his initial decision to take jurisdiction. The plaintiffs filed the suit alleging that several candidates for the May 25th Red lake tribal election were allowed to run who had felony conviction records which is in violation of the Red Lake Tribal Constitution. The plaintiffs are seeking a new election for the offices of secretary and both Redby council seats. Named as defendents are the entire Red Lake Tribal Council, in their official capacity and individually. In a related matter, the PRESS learned that Judge DeLorme was also assigned to hear the two election suits filed by NAP publisher Bill Lawrence. Lawrence had filed the suits against the Red Lake Tribal Council on July 18,1994, in response to his being denied a lay counselors license to represent several of the plaintiffs in the election suits. No date has been set to hear these two cases. Lenny Butcher, guide/counselor, (L) and Dr. Dave Gonzales, fromer director, (R) discuss issues concerning the Mississippi River Spiritual Canoe Trip. Submitted photos Former director airs concerns over rip-offs on Mississippi River canoe trip Tribes flourish with less federal bureaucracy By Melissa Campobasso QUTNAULT, Wash. (AP) _ Since telling the federal government to take its hands off many of its programs, the Quinault Indian Nation says it sends more children to college, offers a youth recreation program and employs more of its own people. "It's been good for us," tribal president Pearl Capoeman-Baller said. "The bureau (of Indian Affairs) always set priorities before. Now, the tribe does. "For instance, prior to self- governance, we were only able to fund about 14 college students. We fund better than 50 now. We prioritize education. Once you cut out the middle man, it does make a difference." Under a pilot project implemented in 1991, the Quinault Nation is spending the federal money it receives as it sees fit, instead of having to follow the dictates of the Bureau of Indian Affairs. About 30 tribes across the country are participating in the Self- Governance Demonstration Project. Among them are the Hoopa Valley Tribe of California, Washington's Lummi Indian Nation, the Cherokee Nation of Oklahoma, the Tlingit and Haida Tribes of Alaska, the Mille Lacs Band of Chippewa Indians in Minnesota, the Sisseton-Wahpeton Sioux Tribe of South Dakota and the Mescalero Apache Tribe in Nevv Mexico. "An advisory and protective role _ that's all we want the bureau for," said Linda Jolly, Quinault's self- governance coordinator. "More of an advocate, rather than someone to tell us what to do day to day." In return for the tribes' ceding of land, the federal government signed treaties with tribal groups that entitled their members to assistance with health care, education and the protection of natural resources. The BIA administers the funds and tells the tribes how they can be spent. Jolly said tribes developed the legislation to reduce the BIA's influence. "If we didn't do it, who the heck was going to?" Jolly said. "It was a tribally driven initiative. We certainly couldn't let BIA draw it up. It would mean they would lose jobs." Gary Witherspoon, professor of American Indian Studies at the University of Washington, thinks the program is a sincere and positive effort on the part of the government. But he is concerned that people within the bureaucracy who fear for their jobs are thwarting it. "There is a second tier of career civil servants who know how to keep their jobs and know how to keep things from happening. All they have to do is not hire enough people to process all the contracts," which will halt the process for years, he said. The self-governance project effectively eliminates a middle layer Tribes cont'd on pg 5 By John Rainbird St. Paul — What started at the Headwaters in Bemidji, to the mouth ofthe Mississippi, then past large and small towns, became an adventure for several inner-city children and some adults trying to meet a destination at Fort Snelling on Labor-Day. In an interview with Dr. Dave Gonzales, a Bemidji State University English Professor */ director / organizer and participant of the Mississippi spiritual canoe journey, questions concerning the accountability of funded monies spent for the trip were asked: Q. How much of the funded money has been spent on the canoes, supplies and children to make this type of journey? A. We were able to get $20,000 from the McKnight Foundation, $ 10,000 for the trip and $ 10,000 for a book on the journey. Mystic Lake gave us $ 11,000 and' $5,000 of that was for the canoes. That is, we had to buy canoes. We also got $5,000 from the Dakota coummunity at Red Wing, $5,000 from American Indian OIC Minneapolis, and of course, money from other places as well. It came to about $40,000. The problem is that funding people do not fund individuals; they fund organizations. The Peacemakers Center had the money. Whenever I needed some money for food or gas or anything else, I had to ask them for it. In other words, they controlled the money, not me. Q. Was there suppose to be a payment for those who took the kids down the river and has there been any promises of pay for them? A. If you have about $40,000 to organize a river journey, it seems that there would be enough money to pay the people on the river. They do the actual work, day and night. As of today, according to Lenny Butcher and 'Fish' Fisher, who stayed with the kids most of the time, little money was paid to them. However, the question has another meaning as well. Why is it that we even have to ask such a question of our organizers? It seems that there River cont'd on pg 6 White Earth man to file civil lawsuit By Lu Ann Hurd-Lof Detroit Lakes Tribune The same year the Mille Lacs Band of Chippewa sued the state claiming it had treaty rights to fish, hunt and gather outside the reservation without state regulation, Albert Bellecourt was given a handful of tickets for violating state rules while he was trapping leeches just west of Itasca State Park. The year was 1990. Wednesday U.S. District Judge Diana Murphy found that under the terms of an 1837 treaty, Mille Lacs Chippewa tribal members may spear fish, hunt and gather wild rice on public land in a dozen counties including Mille Lacs, Aitken and Crow Wing counties. Soon Bellecourt may be the key figure in a case which will seek the same rights on lands throughout northern Minnesota. Bellecourt's attorney, C. Peter Elrinder, said Wednesday he will file suit in U.S. District Court on behalf of Bellecourt and descendants ofthe Mississippi Band of Chippevva Indians against the state. Their suit contends that treaties of 1837, 1842 and 1854 reserved to the Chippewa people the traditional uses ofthe land that pre-existed the treaties, and that the 1854 treaty establishes a dividing line between the Lake Superior Chippewa and the "Mississippi Chippevva" who resided in the area now encompassing the White Earth Reservation. Court documents prepared for the case state that the Mississippi Band have retained the same rights as the Lake Superior Chippewa to the east on lands which were owned by them in common lying east ofthe boundary line. Further, the documents state that subsequent treaties do not extinguish rights to hunt and gather on ceded land off the reservation, nor have they ever been the subject of treaty or federal statutory limitations. The land west ofthe boundary line referred to encompasses a vast part of northern Minnesota, reaching from the Canadian border south to Minneapolis and from the Fond du Lac Reservation on the east beyond the North Dakota border. In fact, the only part of northern Minnesota excluded is the Arrowhead because it is part of the Lake Superior area.

the appearance of Blue moon harvest moon pumpkin ale is a clear dark orange with minimal head and not a lot of lacing. It smells of a slight pumpkin spice with a hint of smokey cinnamon in the aftertaste. Its just an average pumpkin ale but has some hops to it as well.

"A pumpkin ale crafted with autumn's bounty of vine-ripened pumpkin and flavors of cloves, allspice and nutmeg. Then brewed with a touch of wheat for a smooth, lightly spiced finish." Blue Moon Harvest Pumpkin Ale (Previously known as Harvest Moon) is brewed in the Pumpkin Ale style. Available as their fall seasonal, I picked this up as part of a 12 pack variety kit. Date on the bottle is December 24 2012.
Poured from a 12 oz. bottle to a Blue Moon pint glass. Served above 48º Fahrenheit.
(Appearance) Pours a fizzy, thin dirty white head that dissipates quickly. Body color is a copper orange with some medium haziness and substantial carbonation. Head quality is pretty bad and lacing isn't present either. Not a pleasing appearance. 2.25
(Smell) Spices are prominent with allspice, cloves, nutmeg and (lesser, if present at all) cinnamon. The pumpkin, normally a centerpiece to the flavor and sweetness is faint, dry and perhaps too young. There's some odd tartness in the nose too, indicative of less-than-ideal age pumpkin. The malt sweetness is a bit shallow in this beer, led solely by an almost impossible-to-find wheat malt. Could either use a slight reduction in the spice or an increase in the malt bill, but a little of both would be ideal. 3
(Taste) Similar to the nose but even less pumpkin in the taste. Mostly led through dry pumpkin spices, there's a general lack of pumpkin and malt sweetness in the flavor, and thus a notable imbalance to the whole thing. Finishes grainy dry with a caramel and allspice blend, the former of which was concealed completely before. It's not the worst flavor in a pumpkin ale but there's little to no pumpkin character to enjoy and a general lack of sweetness. It leaves for something to be desired. 2.75
(Mouthfeel) Sharply over-carbonated, only accentuating the intensity and dryness of the spices more and focusing less on the pumpkin and malt sweetness. The wheat texture adds little thickness to the texture and doesn't help much. Body is light/medium for the style, light/medium overall. Alcohol presence is low. As mentioned before, there's a great imbalance between the spices and the malty sweetness that should be expected for this beer. 2.5
(Overall) For the majority of this drink I thought I was drinking a spiced ale rather than a pumpkin ale. The majority of the pumpkin character, which played a very minor role in flavor and aroma, was very unsweet and just didn't contribute at all. The spices were collectively too intense to let hardly any other flavors through. The overall concoction was sharply out of balance. This isn't the first beer that has been limited on pumpkin and heavy on spice, but it is suggestive that pumpkin ales released too early in the season are not likely candidates for a good quality well-rounded pumpkin ale. This beer needs to have a lesser spice emphasis and a more pumpkin drive to be enjoyable for me. Not recommended. 2.5

Style: Pumpkin Ale
Notes: Pours out a clear dark orange with a minimal head. Minimal lacing. The body is very thin. There is a slight pumpkin note accompanied with a hint of smokey cinnamon in the aftertaste.
Opinion: Not a bad pumpkin ale just an average one.

So I'm not going to break this beer down by the old ASTMO, because I just really don't like it. I've had it before and I have a ton of beer that is in my fridge that I need to take down before I leave Houston, and that date is encroaching rapidly. I can't bring myself to just throw this beer away or even drink it without reviewing it, because I just hate it so much and I don't ever want to have to buy it again in order to review it. Now lets move on to my brief inebriated thoughts as I casually dismantle this beer.
I think that it is a failed approach to a pumpkin beer. A caricature of what a beer is supposed to be. In fact, I could even see someone without an ounce of beer knowledge thoroughly enjoying it. It tastes like a big, stupid, pumpkin. Like a horrible, watery, metallic, facetious, hyperbolic pumpkin. I just hate this beer. I want to meet the guy who gave this the nod as the beer they wanted to put out there. And I just want to say to him that he, no matter who he is, is better than what this beer represents to me. It's a cop-out, it's bad, deceptive, blunt—literally without any subtlety or complexity. It's not even about how bad this is, it's more about how you can tell there is no love here. I'm not sure that even one person involved in the brewing of this cared at all about trying to really make a beer they thought people would enjoy you know? It tastes like a marketing campaign.
Don't buy this beer. Just don't do it.

Blue Moon Harvest Pumpkin Ale from Golden, CO. Actually now called Blue Moon Harvest Pumpkin Ale, not Harvest Moon Pumpkin Ale, although I'm sure it's the same recipe.
This beer had a nice, but strong nutmeg smell. Intense pumpkin and nutmeg flavor. Enjoyed. Not my favorite pumpkin ale, but better than average.
I drank it from a bottle from a Blue Moon Sampler 12-pack from Food City in Knoxville, TN on 12/19/2012.

12 ounce bottle -> Samuel Adams perfect pint glass
This beer pours up a saturated amber color with a initial one finger off color fluffy head which dissipates quickly and no lacing. Smell is very strong pumpkin spice, clove, and bananas. Taste is a fizzy metallic up front followed by an overpowering unpleasant pumpkin tasting bitterness. Mouthfeel is kind of thin, but the aftertaste is just awful. Maybe I just don't care for pumpkin, but I'd pass on this if it ever comes my way again.

I have had this brew many times, but just recently sat down and actually did an evaluation of the brew itself. I used to like this beer a lot more, and either my tastes are changing or they sweetened the recipe this year. Side poured from the bottle into a pint glass.
Appearance - Pours a nice brown/copper color with a decent one finger that evaporates quickly but leaves mediocre lacing. The packaging is kind of neat. It's almost an orange color, certainly unique. The best part of the beer.
Smell - Whoa pumpkin spices, clove, and nutmeg. Overwhelming amounts. I can almost smell the sugar in this beer. In fact, I think I can smell the sugars. Very potent nose, though not necessarily a good thing in this case.
Taste - Just like the nose. Overwhelmingly sweet from front to back. Spices, brown sugar, nutmeg, and clove overwhelm the palate in a veritable assault on your taste buds. Yikes.
Mouthfeel - Medium body and carbonation, but the sickly sweetness sticks in your throat like drinking hot soda on a hot day.
Overall - Try it once, maybe. It is powerfully sweet, doesn't even really resemble beer all that much. I think they sweetened the recipe this year, because I don't remember it being that strong last year. Either way, I won't buy it again. A poor offering from a generally good Blue Moon product line.

Look: Darker brown almost like an apple cider.
Smell: Sweet aroma with cinnamon sugar and pumpkin spice.
Taste: Smooth crisp pumpkin pie taste. A balanced blend of flavors that are just right.
Mouthfeel: This is brew is best served ice cold. The colder this brew is, the better it tastes. I would defiantly say that one wouldn't be enough but it depends on your preference.
Overall: the only way to describe is having a big piece of pumpkin pie with whip cream on top. This brew is 5.7% alc. by vol. but goes down so smooth. You can't have just one. By the end of the night we were all drinking this seasonal collection brew

Crystal clear. Dark amber to light copper color. The fizzy, white head disappears almost instantly. No lacing.
Heavy spice in the aroma. Some sweet malt in the background, with a little bit of a funky metallic aroma.
Heavy spice also in the flavor. Probably too much. I would prefer more sweetness to provide a balance. The spice blend is great, though. One of the better pumpkin spice profiles I've had.
A light to medium bodied beer. Prickly, but nice carbonation. Not overly fizzy. A moderate length finish.
I really thought this beer was going to fall flat. It definitely blew my expectations out of the water.

I poured this beer into a fluted glass. On the pour I got about three fingers of foam that went away really quickly. The coloring is a vibrant orange.
The smell was surprisingly good. I like the plentiful pumpkin, nutmeg, and clove smells.
The flavor is really overwhelming. The nutmeg and clove come through really strong. Unfortunately the back end is a punch in the jaw.
This is an average pumpkin beer. I would recommend many other over this one, but this one works for tailgates and hanging around the campfire.

a way overly spiced pumpkin beer in my opinion. on tap at dave and busters, this one pours a nice amber shade with a faint orange glow and a fleeting off white head. the nose is nutmeg and clove, a little vanilla, and red and caramel malts. no squash to speak of. the same is true of the flavor, where the heavy spice dose totally crowds out any real pumpkin thats in this beer. its very desserty, like a pumpkin pie, seasonally okay, but to me id like to see more of the actual pumpkin. all the spice makes it a tough beer to session, even though the body is just medium and the carbonation is good. its not a bad beer, dont get me wrong, and definitely better than some of the other blue moon seasonals, but ive come to like my pumpkin beers to showcase the vegetable, not the spice, and this one is just too spice based for me. others may disagree.

I believe this is my first Blue Moon review. I bought a 6 pack of this about a week ago and paid more than it was worth, thats for sure. But I drank all five and left 1 to review, so here it is.
A: This beer pours a deep, reddish-amber color with a solid 3/4 in soapy white head that leaves a little bit of lacing.
S: Aroma consists of some pumpkin spice, though I doubt they use real pumpkin in this one. I get some clove, nutmeg and maybe some wheat or yeast.
T: Taste is consistent with the smell, allspice up front followed by traces of clove and nutmeg.Has a wheat-type finish with a dry, yeast aftertaste.
M: creamy and smooth, the taste starts with sweetness from the front of your tongue and follows with dryness towards the back of the mouth.
O: For a twist off cap, I thoroughly enjoyed this beer. Im not buying that they use real pumpkin from vines, but it is a nice artificial pumpkin pie flavor with a good balance of sweetness and blandness.

Blue Moon Pumpkin Ale - Another got to try before halloween!
Appearance - A nice meaty orange hinted medium brown, just about what you would think of a pumpkin ale. Nothing spectacular but nice
Smell - Great smell of orange, nutmeg, and other seasonal spices
Taste - Pretty bland with not much flavor... aftertaste seems more to me of light pumpkin.
Mouthfeel - the carbonation needs some more and it doesn't seem to match
Overall - I dont think I would serve this at a party but might be a nice addition to halloween sampler.

12 oz twist-off bottle poured into a Sierra Nevada imperial Pint.
5.7% ABV, JAN0713 printed in yellow on neck.
A - Harvest moon pours a beautiful deep burnt orange color that highlights the tiny carbonation bubbles which stream from the glass' etching. A big cream colored head rises above the beer only to lower to a clumpy skim leaving little lace behind.
S - Upon twisting the cap off, Blue Moon's Harvest Pumpkin offers a nice inviting aroma of ample spiciness but, once poured into the pint, the aroma changes significantly. It's spiciness is muted and overshadowed by a prominent dusty, dirt-like smell which clouds the beer in general. The glorious orange gourd shows itself with nuances pulling through the mild malt base that lingers with caramel sweetness.
T - Malt accentuated, caramel and toast apply an overarching sweetness to the beer which helps it's lacking aroma build some steam, though rolls are reversed. In flavor, pumpkin disappears to the background, happy to let spiciness develop more but the sprinkle of the ground elements blend together without allowing any of the parts' characteristics to break away from the whole.
M - Smooth but slick on the tongue, the small carbonation bubbles contained within Blue Moon Harvest Pumpkin Ale gloss over the tongue and tickle in the throat. Medium bodied and sweet mid palate, this beer falls away cleanly with no real finish of spice, dropping off blandly.
O - Blue Moon nails it on the head with their Harvest Pumpkin Ale. As a gateway craft brewery, their beers appeal to those looking to expand beyond the light, fizzy swill into something with more flavor and presence. Pumpkin ales can be daunting at times as not everyone cares for the gourd, but Blue Moon succeeded in making an approachable fall seasonal which neither excels nor fails. Instead, this beer is completely content to revel in it's mediocrity.

Ok, I will say it, this is my favorite pumpkin beer for a few reasons. It seems to have a more balanced taste than a few others. The pumpkin and spices do not overwhelm the beer flavor and vice versa. Another factor is the price. $12.99 for a 12 pack is joy in a box. It tastes good and not over priced. I will buy more and stock pile to get my fix for the winter.

Poured into a conical pint glass.
The beer is a crystal-clear ruby amber color. An off-white foamy head recedes to a chunky film, leaving spotted wet lacing on the glass.
The aroma is muted. Some cinnamon comes through, with general "allspice" notes as well.
The taste has a sweet beginning with a solid wheat-based body. Any pumpkin flavors are immediately lost on me. Faint spices come through, with allspice, nutmeg, and cloves coming to mind.
Mouthfeel is slightly creamy and very smooth, almost too syrupy though.
Overall, too much wheat, and little pumpkin for me. It's also too sweet. The spices are generic and this beer feels like it's brewed from a massive company. Oh ...

Good head and head retention. The aroma was very bad and was slightly reminiscent of a dead fish. The flavor was okay, about average for a pumpkin ale. There was good balance in the beer with just the right amount of pumpkin spice flavor.

[Poured into a generic beer glass]
I: I received a 6 pack of this Pumpkin Ale as a gift. Now I'll say it right now that I have never come across a beer in this style that impressed me. That said, I'm always hopeful and while BlueMoon is more like an Intro/start to the world of better beer I place no prior bias.
B: [5.7% ABV 12 FL. OZ. Bottle Date. Can't Make Out. I presume it's recent] Pretty good presentation. Back story, ingredients, inviting presentation, and nice bottle ridges along with subtle art. Labels are plentiful(3) and give more insight than your average beer. I like it, but it's nothing worth shelving and it's a twist off (eepp).
A: Amber/copper/dark orange transparent body with a scattered/bubbly head (slow dissipation), and little to no lacing.
S: Pumpkin/nutmeg spice upfront and a clean/grassy presence.
T: Orange wheat, nutmeg, pumpkin spice complimented by sweet bread/toasty malt, light hops (if any), caramel, and an earthy/floral presence.
M: Crisp/slick finish, light bodied (watery), med/high carbonation (intrusive), and apparent alcohol (light).
O: Well it was decent, the body hurts the flavor, and the carbonation can come off as intrusive at times. So while I still haven't found that wonderful pumpkin ale, I'm always happy to review and know about a brew. Though it's far from terrible I wouldn't recommend it or buy.

As far as pumpkin beers go, this one is off the chain. Forget what the antiquated reviewers think; I can drink a six pack to the head by my lonesome, and not feel any raunchiness towards the makers. This beer is the shit!
I won't go into the Yuppy classifications : ASTMO...if you want pretentiousness check Google. I will keep it unadulteratingly real: this beer is good-quality pumpkin. Not the best, but drinkable, and worth the money spent. I have a bigger problem with the ass-clowns trying to act like like they know what "good beer" is. Fuk 'Em! and Fuk' Em good!

12oz bottle poured into a tumbler. Enjoyed at home.
A: Clear and rich burnt orange/deep rust color. There was a significant white-off-white head that quickly dissipated. Very much in keeping with the seasonal style.
S: A very spicy nose -- bold pumpkin aroma with a strong clove scent, with a tinge of sweet malt smell.
T: Strong spice flavor "on impact." The taste was more spicy and less "pumpkin-y" than the smell would have suggested. The tinge of sweetness is present throughout, until the spicy aftertaste from the clove.
M: Though it has a smooth feel, it seems to fall short by being too light. Carbonation was appropriate. In short, nothing outstanding in this area.
O: A good, if unremarkable, seasonal beer. Certainly a solid choice to serve at an autumn gathering, though drinkability suffers somewhat on account of the spicy aftertaste. It seems to lack some of the complexity in flavor that makes other seasonal brews so enjoyable, while the flavors that do emerge can tend to be overpowering, particularly in the aftertaste. I wouldn't refuse one of these beers if handed to me, but given a cooler full of options I might dig around in the ice for a while before grabbing one of these.

Poured from a bottle into a pint glass.
Appearance: Reddish copper color with a beige head that was about two fingers thick, no lacing.
Smell: I could smell just that fake pumpkin smell, like the pumpkin pie concentrate out of a can.
Mouthfeel/Taste: Medium bodied. Taste like a freezer pre made pumpkin pie with some malts and hops added.
Overall: Not really impressed, this was simply just a "seasonal" flavor added to a Coors like all of the other Blue Moon beers, at least thats what I think. I really want to like the Blue Moon brews, I think they need to be more origanal with their brews and it might be better.

Poured from a 12 oz. bottle into a Samuel Adams Boston Lager glass. Taken from a Blue Moon seasonal variety pack.
Appearance: Pours a translucent, dark copper color. Has a small, frothy head that dissipates quickly down to a small cap.
Smell: Smells strongly of pumpkin pie spices, caramel malts, and a hint of pumpkin. Not as strong a pumpkin smell as most pumpkin ales.
Taste: Starts mildly hoppy with a sweet, caramel maltiness. Finishes spicy and sweet with some light pumpkin flavors.
Mouthfeel: Crisp, with a light body.
Overall: Definitely an average pumpkin ale. The pumpkin isn't quite as dominating in this beer as in most pumpkin ales, which is kind of a nice change. However, there just isn't really anything there to take its place. It's not bad, but it's nothing I'd seek out regularly.

I was still searching on building a custom rig to play GW2 better. But im not a PC gamer and im a Mac guys so its kind of overkill to spend 1k just for GW2.
But I started thinking. My current imac is showing its age. Mayve Its time to buy a new one. But first I want to check with you guys about GW2.
I have a 2008/2009 imac 21 inch with a Intel Core 2 duo at 3.2ghz (I think) and in not sure of the graphics card. On it I can run GW2 (mac client) on just a notch over low settings at about 25 to 30fpc. Have not tried fighting a boss like the Fire Elemental. On this same mac I have installed Windows 8 using Bootcamp. On that side the game runs at 35fps with fairly medium settings but becomes unplayable when in a boss fight. (Like 15 fps or less)
So I jumped over to apples website and right now the top of the line imac can be ordered with a quad core i7 at 3.4ghz and a NVIDIA GeForce GTX 680MX with 2GB of GDDR5 memorry.
So im wondering if the jump from Core 2 Duo to Quad core I7 is sooooooo drastic that the i7 mac will play GW2 at COMPKETELY MAX settings. Please help. Thank you guys.

Adam is mentioned in above video link. - May 26, 2012 at 1:38 AM
Adam seems to be grappling with an unforeseen circumstance. This brings to my mind an incident where he was told to tone down his stage acts (GNT) and he replied that sometimes it's not within his control. And subsequently a well-known singer came to his defence and confirmed it to be true; due largely to the fact that singing can be sexual. I wonder if this is what Adam is experiencing. LOL! :)

- May 26, 2012 at 2:44 AM
Sorry 2:19 AM
I think Adam is in complete control of everythng he does on stage. By his own admission he is stubborn and does not like anyone telling him what to do. I think that attitude held his career back for several years before he decided to be his good boy self and go on Idol, which worked. Then he let the bad boy out again and darn near sunk his upward swing. Now, a little older and wiser his naughty self makes occasional appearances, but not too often. He may look like one, but he's no angel. - May 26, 2012 at 3:02 AM
adding to all the accolades appropriate to describe Adam..SEXY comes in pretty much at the top..he is just so fantastic in every way possible...may he have the very best of luck with this album and continue his rise to the top...
- May 26, 2012 at 3:09 AM
@3:02 - I totally agree with you..Adam is just sexy (and stubborn) by nature..and we fans get to enjoy that sexiness..it really seems weird to alot of people, but this old gal's one last hormone kicks into high gear when witnessing that sexy boy do his thing..hope he never changes..

- May 26, 2012 at 4:01 AM
Pertaining to the incident I brought up about "sometimes it's not within his control", the incident was not brought up by Adam himself; rather an article written by a very experienced, famous singer quoted it as an example. Adam merely remarked but did not specifically use it as an excuse or in defence of what he did on stage. The article went on to state that this kind of sexual stimulation is experienced by other male singers as well; who sometimes feel embarrassed on stage. The writer/singer explained that singing is emotional as well as sexual in nature. So it's not just pertaining to Adam but to male singers that this can happen. I believe Adam was saying something true regarding the incident and it has not much to do with whether he is a bad boy or an angel. Adam has always been open and honest and has never claimed to be an angel. Hasn't he told us enough of his dark as well as light side.

For those who has kids in the concert that night, we are not naive that our kids now a days are more open than before.....:) It's my opinion and don't deny it folks.

looking at this vid again (and again and again)..you know Adam is not doing anything that most other performers do (i.e., touching himself and moving provocatively)..I think it is just that we get so turned on by his awesomeness that any thing he does that is the least bit risque..we glom onto and feel the need to comment on...

I agree with that. His second world tour will be sensational and he probably won't be told what or what not to do so much. More are beginning to understand his intentions; basically a very passionate artist who wants to perform his art with as much freedom and self-expression as possible.

Loved this performance -- Adam's sooooo sexy. The touching thing didn't bother me at all -- that's sexy Adam. Did you see lately that Justin Beiber has been touching his you-know-what in some recent performances - and who watches -- the teens -- and I would imagine they don't have a problem with it. Family friendly? Anyway, give me some sexy Adam anytime!
- May 26, 2012 at 7:29 AM
yeah, JB has been copying Adam alot lately..the look, the ear studs and even some photo shoots..so it does follow reason that he would "try" to come across as a sexy beast..BUT..the great, the only, the sexiest man alive, can only carry it off in a way to arouse every woman who chooses to observe (and alot of men too lol)
- May 26, 2012 at 7:43 AM
Get well soon,Elton John.Yes,Adam sang one sexy version of "Broken English"!
- May 26, 2012 at 8:17 AM
When I saw Adam sing Broken English at the Jimmy Kimmel Live Show he did a very similar sexy performance, the "touch" included and, yeah, the crowd looovvved it...Thud.

I love and appreciate Adam's incredible voice and superb showmanship and I'm Sooo happy he's decided to share his CROTCH with us again . KEEP IT UP ADAM !!!
- May 26, 2012 at 10:10 AM
Now that's worth a some repeat viewing/listening. He was just helping his audience understand what body language he speaks. Great wails!! He was definitely on!

Review of Adam and the rest of the Summer Smash concert from the Wilkes-Barre Times Leader..Most about Adam tho..as it should be. VERY nice and complimentary review. The first comment in the comments section was however from a clueless hater..so the comments to follow are all from fans..(myself included...) Adam is sooo loved...

Here's the Times Leader review that I linked above, the part that pertains to Adam (which was most of the review!)
"Lambert 'trespasses' at Kirby Review"
'American Idol' alumni performs tunes from his No. 1 second studio release.
BRAD PATTON, For The Times Leader
"Just one day after his new album became the No. 1 record in the country, Adam Lambert was in town to headline the "98.5 KRZ Summer Smash" at the F.M. Kirby Center for the Performing Arts on Friday.
"Trespassing," Lambert's second studio release, debuted atop the Billboard 200 yesterday and made a little history by replacing the latest offering by Carrie Underwood at No.1. It was the first time an album by an "American Idol" alum took over the top spot from another AI alum.
Lambert took the stage of the Kirby Center – the same theater in which he launched his first ever solo tour two years ago – at 9:35 following an introduction by one of KRZ's disc jockeys that included the words "tall," "talented," and "tasty."
To a deafening roar from the near-capacity crowd, Lambert sported a look slightly reminiscent of Elvis in "Jailhouse Rock" as he wore a black suit over a black and white striped shirt.
"You guys, we're number one, and it's all because of you," he said following his opening number, the title track of his latest album. "Thank you so much for your passion, your support and your insanity."
Later he thanked his musical director for taking what he called a "crazy electronic studio album" and making it come alive on the stage.
Although the album hit the shelves less than two weeks ago, it seemed nearly everyone in the audience was very familiar with the material, singing along to every song and waving their "Glam sticks" in unison.
An early highlight was a stripped down version of "Whataya Want From Me" from Lambert's first album, 2009's "For Your Entertainment," as was the new song "Broken English."
Following another new number "Naked Love," which Lambert stressed for the family-friendly audience is about freeing yourself not taking your clothes off, he scored big with his latest single "Never Close Your Eyes" as he headed down the home stretch of his 45-minute performance"....

I just returned from Wilkes Barre, Pa after attending the concert at the Kirby Center. Adam was "electrifying" to say the least. He was 'naughty" at times and "playful" throughout his set, and he was on last. Not only worth the wait, but I think he gave one of his best performmances live. The entire show was family friendly. I met people from all over the country. They love Adam. He is sexy and it's all good. I had butterflies when he bounded onto the stage. I am still on a high. Get to a concert in your area if you can. He is unbelivable!!!
- May 26, 2012 at 11:00 AM
@6.47 well that is the best way anybody ever put it. I was at the Paradiso concert and that was how I felt at the end of the concert. I was supposed to meet a friend at the venue who didn't get in till later and when she finally found me, I literally fell into her arms and bawled my eyes out.
This performance gives us taste of the great things that are to come during the next tour!!!!

ADAMGASMIC from Colombia has started a campaign to bring Adam's music to South America. She contacted Sony, which told her they would ship CDs only if she can show that the support is there. She needs 1,000 followers for @playbogota. You don't need to be in South America, so just go and find the Twitter account and click "Follow"!! Let's see if we can reach her goal by the weekend!! She's an incredible Glambert. Last night she produced a radio show devoted to "Trespassing". - May 26, 2012 at 1:17 PM
I have to comment again about "Naked Love" and including the audience in part of the singing. One of the highlights of the fabulous concert. He was so frickin adorable. People were going crazy.
- May 26, 2012 at 1:33 PM
I am boiling mad I called my local radio station asked if they would play NCOE & he said they do not play Adam Lambert I said why not he actually laughed at me nothing makes me any madder than some one to laugh at me He said Adam just is not popular enough I said all the garbage you play on your station you have the nerve to laugh at me Kiss FM Springfield Illinois I hope he has to eat his words & ignorant laugh.
- May 26, 2012 at 9:39 PM
Your so right! I had the short priviledge of working for MJ and I know Adam and both have an aura that totally surround's them. Each of them in their own way magnificent, spectacular, mind blowing, off the planet entertainers who shine when they hit the stage, and shine off too.
What a priviledge to see Adam hit #1 on Billboards! - May 26, 2012 at 9:56 PM
On Lambosessed's website, she has all the videos (TALC videos!) from Wilkes-Barre. They're amazing!
- May 26, 2012 at 10:20 PM
Feel your frustration from the other side of the world with this KISS FM Springfield radio station!
How bloody rude are they! - May 27, 2012 at 12:49 AM
Frankly I'm sick of the oversexualizing of everything nowdays. I'm no prude, but I teach at a middle school, and our children know so much more about sexual tnings than I ever did at that age. It's almost as if they're not allowed to be kids anymore. I love Adam and his singing, but I don't really want to see him groping his crotch. But that's just me. I know most of the posters here eat that kind of stuff up from Adam.(No pun intended).LOL
- May 27, 2012 at 8:22 AM
I agree with you and I am also a teacher. Adam can ooze sex with a lifted eyebrow and his sideways "eye sex" he used so effectively on Idol. I don't think the genital rub is necessary.
And can be offensive to some. - May 27, 2012 at 11:45 AM
One of this countries most horrendous serial killers had same Zodiac sign as Adam and Elvis.?????
I can't recall if he had a good voice. What's the connection? - May 27, 2012 at 11:53 AM
@11:45 everything Adam does is offensive to someone so what should he do? Case in point - that vile Focus on the Family christian group reviewed Trespassing and said that in Naked Love " the singer drunkenly demands that a prospective lover expose himself". WOW - guess I missed that! Also that "Lambert is unapologetically shameless about his voracious sexual appetites". Wont go on with their rant cuz ya get the idea. Didnt know whether to laugh, cry or scream in anger over this review? Actually I screamed in anger! . . . Adamluv
- May 27, 2012 at 2:12 PM
Maybe keep his hands off his crotch on stage?
- May 27, 2012 at 8:46 PM
So, what was that, four minutes of INSANELY great singing and 1/2 second of Adam rubbing his hand over the bulge.
And we are focusing on that 1/2 second?
I go nuts when Adam and the backup singers (they are unreal) sing the "on and on and on we go" part. It is crazy powerful singing.
And please, the Christian review! They think he's a sinner for just being Adam so he can't win anyway. - May 30, 2012 at 7:49 PM

Celebrating 50 Years: Sheffield Village sign maker has milestone anniversary
SHEFFIELD VILLAGE — With his wife and $25 given to him by American delegates, Hungarian immigrant Jenö Lapat escaped his war-torn country in the late 1950s to start a life and eventually a successful business in Lorain County.
The owner of Lapat Signs, 4151 E. River Road, Sheffield Village, is celebrating his 50th year in the sign-making business.
Though the business has evolved over the years, Lapat creates both hand-painted and computer-designed signs for customers. He works alone creatively, but his daughter and partner, Toni Lapat, handles the business side. A few others help with the installation of signs, Lapat said.
Signage work includes truck and boat lettering, magnetic signs, billboards and more. Lapat also does graphic design work, such as business cards and posters, he said.
His work has appeared on bookmobiles, buildings and even some Morning Journal delivery trucks, in the past.
Prices can vary from $25 to several thousand depending on the size, complexity and materials needed for the sign.
Lapat previously worked as a graphic artist in Europe, but after immigrating, he found illustration jobs were scarce. Signs are always needed, he said and the business allowed him to tap into his creative side.
Lapat grew up in Axis-run Hungary during World War II. He was fascinated by soldiers as a boy; even now the imagery of war appears in many of the personally-crafted artwork covering his home. His family fled from Budapest during the war; he later learned the apartment they lived-in was leveled by Allied bombers.
"First the Germans came," he said. "And then the Russians."
Hungary was occupied by Soviet Union after the defeat of Axis forces in the mid-1940s. Continued...
Lapat spent two years in the military in the early 1950s, using his natural artistic talents to create maps. As a map maker, he enjoyed a higher rank and access to more beer, he joked. It also gave him time to draw, one of his passions.
In the 1956, Hungarians revolted against the Soviet-backed government but the revolution was squashed.
"We lost to the Russians," Lapat said. He and his wife fled in to Yugoslavia where they waited for eight months until they were brought to the United States by American delegates. After reaching the city of Lorain, the delegates handed Lapat $25 and sent him on his way.
"I thought I was rich," Lapat said with a laugh.
A local business owner noticed Lapat's talent with graphic arts and offered him a job. He made slightly more than $1 an hour at the time.
"I did not speak a word of English," he said. "They had to point."
After a few years of working for low wages, Lapat decided to start his own business and in 1962, he began creating signs out of the garage of his 31st Street home.
"I worked seven days a week and a minimum of 10 hours a day for years," he said.
The constant work sometimes created funny scenarios, his daughter recalled.
"One of his shoes floated off when he was painting boat lettering in Vermilion," she said with a laugh. Local fishermen helped hook the shoe, she said. Continued...
The business moved to the East River Road location roughly 30 years ago, he said. Lapat designed the space himself, allowing for a large garage and a workshop, he said.
Lapat's signs range from simple lettered designs to complex pieces with hand-painted artwork beneath the text. One of his proudest creations depicts a painted rendering of Mount Rushmore that was used for a real estate business.
All of his work was hand-crafted in the beginning, but advances in technology and customer demands moved the industry more toward computers. Lapat said he noticed the shift starting in the 1980s.
"You had to learn it on your own," he said. "When I got the computer and program, for about 16 days, I don't touch it."
He said he originally hated it, but after learning the technology, his mind was changed.
"You master it after awhile," he said.
A typical design will start with a hand drawn sketch.
"I put it in the scanner and clean it up on the computer," he said.
Clients receive a mock-up for their approval after the design is created to give them a chance to suggest alterations.
The hand-painted signs are Lapat's favorite part. Continued...
"I can show off then," he said with a laugh. Fewer and fewer sign shops offer that option.
"He gets to use his creative side," his daughter said. "My dad takes pride in it."
Lapat said he wouldn't have changed his life at all. His experiences have led him to a job he enjoys.
"I would do it all again," he said. "I'm a little bit up in age and I'm real comfortable. I love what I do."
To commission a sign or for more information, contact the business at 277-6291.

On Wednesday, March 31, Kelly Persons of Lowe's hosted a lunch for select Lowe's vendor partners to become more familiar with SkillsUSA and find opportunities to support our students and mission. The event was held at Time Warner Arena, the home of the NBA Charlotte Bobcats, in downtown Charlotte, North Carolina. The impressive list of attendees included representatives from Georgia-Pacific, Werner Ladder, Jimmie Johnson Foundation, Ettain Group, Presbyterian Healthcare, Hitachi Power Tools, Valspar and Compass Group.
The group convened in a concourse of the arena. A section of an interior arena wall included a photographic mural dedicated to the community service activities of Lowe's. Across from the mural, in one of the food galleries, stand pillars wrapped in pictures of the major programs Lowe's supports, and sure enough, there was the column highlighting SkillsUSA.
National officers Stephen Lupton and Zia Green did a wonderful job presenting the mission and current activities of the organization illustrated by their own experiences. They stressed to the executives that the connection with business and industry often begins at the local level. After a question and answer session, national staff members and I met with the guest companies to explore specific opportunities to get involved. There was a lot of positive feedback and interest in supporting our students and attending state conferences, in addition to some bigger plans to attend NLSC. The event was a success, and I believe Lowe's just created a new best practice for future Goodwill Tours.
All this came about because of YDF member Kelly Persons opening doors as an ambassador for SkillsUSA. Thanks to Kelly and the Lowe's team for their dedication and support of our mission.

Therefore the proper method for consuming those vegetables is to purchase nice fresh brocolli, cut off all of the florets, wash check the stems & cook. The nutrients are in the stalk, the protein that's in the florets are not permitted, get your protein somewhere else.
The above method has been recomended by some of the public speakers e.g Rabbi Eisen among them.
Strawberries- cut off the stem & leaves with a sliver of fruit. Either peel the strawberry or wash a few times with soap, then puree and cook.

Beating the Paint Chip Blues
9 comments:
I am so glad there are others out there like me. I had a can of paint for the bathroom for over a year before I finally did it! I was in a decorating "block" and after I painted 1/2 of one wall, I became so inspired I have now completed two more projects that have been lingering in my idea journal for decades! What is up with that?
ReplyDeleteIt's always hard to jump on board and paint a different color.I did just that.But no swatches for this girl I just did it.I painted my kitchen cabinets white.Including my island.After living with it for a bit I decided the island had to be a different color.Next was duck egg blue which is a similar color to your selection.I liked it but I could not live with it.So I repainted it again this time with coco.A taupe brown color.And now I LOVE it! Not a big deal if you have to repaint it.I say go for it :-)
AnneNo, I'm hoarding paint chips of colors I love waiting for the perfect project to use them on. I have always had an easy time choosing colors for my home and the projects I work on, one of the few things in life that comes easily to me. Btw, of the blues you have taped up I'm loving the one on the far right. From your colortopia picks I would choose the turquoise. Looking forward to what you choose.
Thank you so much for taking the time to leave a comment! I try to answer all questions by replying here - so if you leave one please return to see your answer :)

"Vicky Cristina Barcelona" could be a two-hour tonic for a weary American or a tourism brochure for a Gaudí city or the catalyst for an expatriate odyssey. But even for those without wanderlust, the film luxuriates in an adult, intelligent, and airy manner, gently titillating, seriously flirting.
Javier Bardem is a "Brings It" dude, as in "He Brings It." Like current contemporaries of this insatiable machismo, Clive Owen and Daniel Craig, he exudes rugged confidence with a rumpled insouciance. In "Vicky Cristina Barcelona," even his Adam's apple is tumescent.
Fittingly, he burst onto the scene in Bigas Luna's lusty 1992 "Jamón, jamón" as "El chorizo."
At an age where men, especially, have a startling tendency to turn inwards, mistaking obstinance for self assuredness, the 72-year-old Woody Allen is able to create as a screenwriter a multitude of distinct characters who are independent entities, viable and vibrant, who are seeking and searching for that which fulfills them. Consequences aren't damned but honesty and openness are virtues.
You can detect the recalcitrant Allen persona in Rebecca Hall's Vicky, squirming with an internal struggle between a Wall Street fiancé with polo shirts tucked into chinos and Bardem in shirts which seem buttoned with a lick of the lips. It's navel gazing of an entirely different sort.
Scarlett Johansson is an enigma. Possessing art-house cache with turns in "Ghostworld" and "Lost in Translation," one has suspected that her talent is more (pants) suited for a shitting on the dock of a Michael Bay blockbuster. But she embodies Cristina effortlessly. In the moment at a late supper, where she and Vicky first meet Bardem's artist Juan Antonio, she sums up her character's sense of adventurous and autonomous sexuality. While Vicky is loathe to reward his advances as a first impression, Cristina respects Juan Antonio's chat up lines as refreshing, bullshit-free effusions. It is a hallmark of Allen's dexterous script that he provides both women with believable, reasoned and witty insight.
For a country where lad mags have to remind couples that they could have sex at times other than bedtime, "Vicky Cristina Barcelona" is a paean to spontaneity, an example to statesiders to not only live in the moment, but to live in your moment.
Penelope Cruz is a powerhouse. Reminiscent of Anna Magnani in "The Rose Tattoo," Cruz prowls the screen as Maria Elena, Juan Antonio's ex-wife, but hardly his ex. A few years ago, Cruz faced a tenuous time in her career as she made a strange transatlantic crossing in projects like "Woman on Top," "Vanilla Sky," and "Sahara." But, this year, with a role of this magnitude along with a brave performance in "Elegy," it appears her days as Steve Zahn's sidekick may become a trivial memory.
Graced with a gossamer disposition but buoyed as an actress with acute strength, Patricia Clarkson shines in a memorable cameo as the dignified but disquieted Judy Nash, who provides Vicky and Cristina with a villa for the summer, and perspective. Ensnared in a marriage to a mashed potatoes financier, Judy finds herself in a desiccating relationship bereft of turmoil but lacking in passion, made more desperate by her husband's obliviousness to her unease.
The soundtrack is a flamenco-infused delight of many moods. From the opening credits of the jaunty, toe-tapping "Barcelona" by Guilia y Los Tellarini to the dramatic, sensual guitar work of Juan Serrano on "Gorrion," the music is riveting, essential and a character all its own.
