Murph's Musings: Martin St. Louis for Ryan Callahan Trade Unlikely At This Point
Just hours after Marty St. Louis and Canada beat the United States to advance to the gold medal game last Friday, former NFLer Boomer Esiason who co-hosts the 'Boomer and Cart Show' on CBS New York tweeted this:
"Marty, Marty , Marty in a good way? Hard to believe."
Then just over 24 hours later Esiason tweeted this:
"Its coming and it will be huge. Surprising, shocking, inevitable, and all about business. $$$ #NHL#tradedeadline"
On Monday, Esiason explained whom he was referring to when he said "Marty" making sure his New York and New Jersey listeners didn't think he meant Devils netminder Martin Brodeur who is also the subject of trade rumors.

Murph's Musings: Canada is Hockey
As if we all needed another reminder that hockey is — and until another country can produce as many quality and winning players – Canada's sport. What Canada did in their semifinals and gold medal wins at the 2014 Men's Olympic hockey tournament can only be described as the type of dominance that we haven't seen at the Olympics or international level since the Russian Red Army teams owned the international hockey scene. That's why it's no surprise to have just read these stats from the NHL public relations department's always-resourceful "Morning Skate" email:
"With the win, Canada became the first country to earn back-to-back gold medals since the Soviet Union in 1984 and 1988."

Murph's Musings: NHL Safety Exec: Shawn Thornton "Poster Boy" of Tough Hockey
Came away with some interesting tidbits on my weekly show "Murphy's Hockey Law" this Saturday. NHL Vice President of Player Safety & Hockey Operations Damian Echevarrieta joined me to give a behind the scenes look on how suspensions and fines are determined. He also gave some interesting insight into what he agreed was one of the toughest decisions he and NHL Vice President of Hockey and Business Development and Director of Player Safety Brendan Shanahan have had to make and that is the 15-game suspension handed down to Shawn Thornton in December. As Echevarrieta pointed out, suspending a guy they want other players to emulate was very difficult.

Murph's Musings: NHL Teams Should Respect Olympic Agreement With Players
The NHL roster freeze went into full effect Friday at 3 p.m. and there was not the flurry of trade activity many in the media were expecting. But while all was quiet on the trade front, the chatter around the league went into full Olympic mode. One of the big debates for years now has been whether or not NHLers should be participating in the Winter Olympics. But when the NHL and NHLPA ended the lockout of 2012-13 and agreed on a new CBA, they both agreed that the players would participate in the Sochi games and then reevaluate for South Korea in 2018. But as of late, it doesn't appear that most owners and teams are upholding the spirit of that agreement.
On Thursday, Flyers owner Ed Snider didn't hold back when asked what he thought of NHLers traveling to Sochi or any Olympic tournament mid-season.

Murph's Musings: Oilers And Kings Could Be On Verge Of Trade
It was another busy day of NHL trade rumors Thursday with the Olympic roster freeze Friday at 3 p.m. ET. Many expected that the freeze would serve as another trade deadline before the official one on March 5 but as of Thursday night there hadn't been any major deals this week. Still that doesn't mean teams aren't talking and trying to get ahead of the rest of the pack by pulling off an impactful trade before the Olympic break.

Son, Putin is going to do whatever he wants. It does not matter who is in office
Sentiment: Buy
Hypocrites every last one of them
Yes return that refrigerator after 10 or so years.
Not much different than his weak stance on Syria. The world does not take this community organizer seriously. Even the press think he's a paper tiger.................................
"The Washington Post editorial page, which backed the Iraq war and is more hawkish than many realize, says Obama's foreign policy is "based on fantasy":
"For five years, President Obama has led a foreign policy based more on how he thinks the world should operate than on reality…
"He's also in part responsible for the national mood: If a president doesn't make the case for global engagement, no one else effectively can."
He sticks to nothing as evidenced by his flip flop flip flop flip flop on Obamacare with more flips and flops to come. He flopped on Syria. He wants to hug Iran and thinks they are just misunderstood. I'm surprised he hasn't made a basketball trip to North Korea with his buddy DeeDee Rodman. The only country he tries to push around is Israel because in his naivete he thinks the Arabs, Palestinians and the Jews someday are going to sit around the campfire and sing Kumbaya.
He is more dangerous than Putin. He acts out of some silly view of the world while Putin is annexing part of the world in the Crimea, Iran, and Syria.
Hang on, folks. The next 3 years are going to be a roller coaster. Hopefully the USA Twister doesn't leave the tracks and crash!
Bounce back! Some hanky panky going on between ....? I beat we find out before the weeks out! You don't move a stock price of a company this size with a few shares...that was a noticeable move that will flag a number of powerful entitie s.......
I think it's a buy. And it's better organized than HD. The last few times I've gone it's been empty. I don't know why it's trading at 42 premarket though
Does anyone know why LOW is down $7.25 to $42.94 this morning?
The Bush war of lies in Iraq really sent America spiraling down
was a beacon for oppressed people in other countries? Well, not under our current Democratic President. It seems it's OK to be a terrorist from the Middle East who becomes a navigator for Obamacare. But, if you're a Christian family from Germany who fled your homeland because they wanted to take your children away because you home schooled them then you're not OK. Obama and his henchmen want this family deported. Are they criminals? Terrorists? Immoral? A danger to our nation? No! They are Christians and apparently that's a lot more dangerous to Team Obama.
Maybe Obama is afraid of how it might affect his relationship with Germany? He didn't seem all that concerned when he eavesdropped on Angela Merkel, did he?
This is just another example of Obama's total disconnect for what is right, and what America stands for. Remember......................he told us he would transform us and he is doing just that. He is transforming us into a nation of socialists. Maybe we should change our name to the United States of France II?
Not quite, Pascal. 6 million Americans lost their coverage. Now 4 million have signed up (and only God knows how many have paid and are actually covered). So at the very least that's a net 2 million coverages lost. Of the 4 million, how many are Medicaid re-applications? You go ahead and believe the lies that the Democrats tell you. Let me know what you think in 2 years after the employer mandate is fully kicked in and 50 million have been dumped onto the exchanges. It really is hard to believe that so many people like you buys this snake oil salesman's pitch. I guess Barnum was right, after all.
At one time America led the world from the front. Then we tried to lead from behind. Now, we're just being left behind. Karzai openly mocks us, Putin thumbs his nose at us, Assad still has his chemical weapons, the Iranians are playing us for suckers, and the rest of the world really doesn't care what we think or say. They know we have a foreign policy that's in shambles. Actually, we have no foreign policy and that's the problem.
Grow a pair, Obama and stop with these silly declarations that if you cross this or that line there will be ramifications. So far, every time a line has been crossed you move the line further back. Either stay quiet, or back up what you say!

New York's de Blasio boots charter schools from city space. 93% of the students in those schools are minorities and 75% are below the poverty line. See, helping minorities is only expedient for Socialist Democrats when their union thug benefactors say so. By the way, the NY Teacher's union praised this action.
Tell me again how this is the party of tolerance and inclusion who's looking out for the poor. Yeah, tell me again, Small Jobs. I'm sure you have some spin for this too!
LOL!! That's funny stuff. I didn't say anything about gays. I said a black family that plays by the rules and doesn't game the system has to feel as if they are 2nd class citizens for having done the right thing and worked hard to better the lives of themselves and their children. Like a typical liberal you try to spin one thing into another. When that doesn't work you start calling people names. Just like your leaders, Obama and Reid.
What an insult that many corporations pay O taxes. That the wealthy buy politicians. That they hide the money overseas to avoid taxes. What an insult that they can pay only capital gains instead of ordinary income tax like the rest of working stiffs. That the repukes hate guys and minorities, and any religion that is not Christian. That the gays can fight in wars and die so the wealthy repukes can be free, but they don't want them to have any rights.
What an insult that you want to cut social security which is PAID in by every worker as well as Medicare, which again is deducted every week from my check, but you will allow tax breaks to the wealthy.
I could go on forever, but some of us have to work for a living.
What an insult to a traditional 2 parent black family where both parents work hard to make a better life for their children. Where those parents scrape and save and make sure their children work hard to earn scholarships so they can go to college. How sad that those parents have to take a backseat to a family who made bad choices and gets preferential treatment. Where does this left wing idiocy stop? Does it ever stop?
Well the clever republicans should have come up with a universal healthcare bill, too late now. Guess what? 4 million Americans are now covered thanks to "obamacare"
Sentiment: Buy
I think all 3 are poorly run social programs that need desperate overhauls. Other than that aksing such a broad based question is a little silly, isn't it? The big difference between the earlier social programs and Obamacare is that the ACA passed with NO REPUBLICAN VOTES. Not one. They warned that the program was flawed. Guess what? They were right and logical Democrats agree.
What do you think about, medicare,medicaid, & social security? What have Republicans done?
Sentiment: Buy

[–]tdm911 25 points26 points27 points 1 year ago
Hi! Fellow Aussie here. I'll try and address your questions as best I can.
The pre-season works pretty similar to how it works in AFL. You have training camp (basically, AFL call pre-season) and then some pre-season games. The Celtics ail be playing New York, Philadelphia and Brooklyn, who are all Atlantic division rivals. There is no NAB Cup type pre-season competition though. The results are mostly meaningless, it;s just practice.
The season is 82 games long (AFL was 23 weeks/22 games this year) and then you have the playoffs (equivalent to the first three weeks of AFL finals). Each playoffs round is a series, best of 7. Then you have the finals, also a best of 7, which is the equivalent to the Grand Final. The winner is then crowned champion. In AFL we win flags, in NBA players win rings (they receive a ring as a winner).
The ladder is split into conferences - east and west. There are also divisions (three per conference) and teams play their inter-division rivals 4 times, their inter-conference rivals 2 or 3 times and their their conference rivals 1 or 2 times. I think, someone might correct that for me.
Teams? Well, let me think from an AFL perspective and I'll try and come up with some thoughts:
Some of these are pretty loose comparisons, but I tried to fit every AFL club in.
Let me try a few player comparisons:
That's harder. I'm struggling to come up with more. Maybe I'll add more as I think about it.
Anyway, ask more questions and I can help answer them with an AFL focus. Oh, I'm a die hard Cats supporter, so expect some bias (much like my Celtics bias!).
edit: I should point out that it's hard to compare the two leagues because of the hard salary cap in the NBA and the soft salary cap in the AFL. The AFL is much more open and all teams seem to get a chance at being successful. I believe every team reached a prelim in the 00's. In the NBA, some teams barely ever make the playoffs, let along a conference finals series.
[–]ewok_party 6 points7 points8 points 1 year ago
I have absolutely no idea about anything concerning the AFL but this was fascinating
[–]tdm911 1 point2 points3 points 1 year ago
You should watch an AFL game one day! It's a little like NFL, a little like Soccer and a little like Rugby. The game focusses heavily on kicking and handballing (punching the ball from your palm). The players have much more in common with NBA players than NFL though. AFL footballers are great athletes who can run, tackle and jump.
It's a high paced game that is very skillful. If you see a game on TV one day, watch it !( Though the only game that would be shown on US screens would be the Grand Final, and that was two days ago - maybe a rerun might screen though?)

LAUREL COUNTY, Ky. —
The reason 49-year-old Edward Steele refused to leave a residence on Felts School Road, 13 miles south of London, on Tuesday afternoon was not released, but Steele now faces charges of alcohol intoxication in a public place and second-degree criminal trespassing charges stemming from the incident.
Laurel County Sheriff's Senior Sgt. Greg Poynter and Deputy Steve Hoskins answered the call concerning a man who was refusing to leave a residence around 3:48 p.m. Upon their arrival, they found Steele, who is listed in jail records as "homeless," outside a Felts School Road residence. Steele was reportedly highly intoxicated.
Steele was arrested and taken to the Laurel County Detention Center. Jail records indicate Steele was also charged with third-degree terroristic threatening. He was scheduled to appear in Laurel District Court Wednesday morning at which time he pled guilty to the alcohol intoxication and criminal trespassing charges. He was ordered to pay a $25 fine for the alcohol charge, $184 in court costs, and 90 days in jail, which was probated for 24 months on the condition of no further violations and no contact with the homeowner or the property where he was arrested.
On the additional charge of terroristic threatening, Steele pled guilty and was ordered to pay $184 in court costs and serve 60 days in jail, which was probated for two years on the condition he have no further violations and no contact with the victim.

White 2 Tea
Popular Teas from White 2 Tea
See All 22 TeasRecent Tasting Notes
First, thanks to TwoDog of White2Tea for a hefty sample of this.
The dry leaves have darkened and a soft fragrance of "pure tea" exudes from the chunks of cake, which are composed of a variety of leaf types. The first couple steeps are somewhat weak, but by the third infusion, things get going. Each sip opens simply and sweetly, with a light mouthfeel, soon developing into a a full, complex body that introduces slight kuwei (good bitterness) in the throat, a slight tartness, and a faint smokiness. The finish is cooling throughout the mouth and coupled with a subtle huigan (returning sweetness).
The aromas in the dry cup and gaiwan lid are deep, dark and slightly fruity with caramel-like undertones. Some aspects from the earthy spectrum as well. All this together with the textural profile and flavors present place this cake in what seems like an intermediate stage of aging. It seems mature, but there are still rougher dimensions of youth that haven't quite transformed yet. I enjoy this, though. My sessions with this tea have so far been complex and interesting, and the leaves grant a little bit of everything I like in sheng pu'er. This is quickly becoming one of my favorite teas I have had this year. I only wish I would have learned of White2Tea sooner so I could have grabbed a cake of this before they ran out…
The cake has a tight compression and a light, sweet aroma. The first steep begins light to medium in strength, but the body feels full and seems to foreshadow the strength in the upcoming infusions of thick, dark orange soup. The flavors tend toward the fruity spectrum and are mostly simple in style, while the body is malty and full of "dark" sweetness, thick and ripe like prunes. Later, more smoky and woody notes climb in, and create a very balanced complexity.
The soup begins slowly and softly with a thick mouthfeel, introducing basic sweet and salty aspects. It develops into a long and waxing complexity across a second or two duration, where the flavors mentioned above begin to grow and amass one after the other. At this point, a throaty kuwei slowly emerges. It is, like the other aspects of this tea, deep. The bitterness isn't sharp and is more "felt" than tasted. There are some drying effects towards the front of the mouth, but the throat remains moist. It reaches a medium to strong intensity as far as flavors go, before fading slowly to a stable finish that doubles as a long-lasting aftertaste. I found this to be a very interesting quality with this tea, as I usually find the sip's finish fades before a complimentary, yet distinct aftertaste (with a slightly different flavor) emerges after the swallow. With this shengpu, the soup's form descends to a stable and subtle intensity that simply "sticks," lingering for quite some time. Finally, seconds after the swallow, a coolness begins to develop that intensifies as the session progresses. After the second steep, my body is calmed and warmed to the point of sweating, causing my neck and ears to become flushed.
Overall I am really pleased with this one and impatiently await the effects of a bit of age on it. The tea presents an interesting textural experience, but is not without intrigue in the flavor department. Plus, it has an elephant on the wrapper, which adds just a touch more awesomeness to it.
It's a pretty scrappy looking cake, but the soup it produces is great. The leaves are ridiculously long and many have difficulty fitting into my gaiwan. The compression is so loose that enough leaves for a session can be gathered from the cake just by lifting it and prodding the sides a bit, causing dried leaves to fall onto the wrapper like raindrops. And it's aroma is extremely pungent. The time spent bent over the cake collecting leaves caused my face to become flushed and my eyes slightly irritated. It smells very smoky and aggressive.
The strength of the aroma carries over to the wet leaves and soup, although the profile changes somewhat. The tobacco smoke remains to some extent, but a certain caramelized fruitiness and faint ginger quality emerges. The mouthfeel is as burly as the scent.
The opening is quick and somewhat dull, with rough, dark sweetness. It rapidly develops into something stronger with average complexity and great depth of character. It lingers expectedly, gradually evolving into a spicy-cool finish in the throat. The coolness is intense and lasts quite some time. The aftertaste is cool and moist, with a kind of sticky sweetness, but my body is warm. The tea is stimulating, but only slightly so. Further steeps add a nice throaty bitterness and more fruity flavors, treading farther from the initial smokiness found in the aroma.
The second time I tasted this I actually measured the amount of leaves I used (6 g/100 mL), but my results were less intense and lighter in depth than the first time. I had used more leaves from the edge of the cake, which are much longer than those closer to the center and those within the body of the cake, and are attached to even longer stems. I guess I'll have to pay more attention to what parts of this eclectic blend I'm using for each session in the future.
My sample arrived two days ago and WOWEE was this some good tea. Out of the 5 sites i ordered from, this is without a doubt my favorite tea, and cheaper than some of the others i bought
I found the tea after reading this review
He says it better than i can – so read his notes!
The cake smells fresh and strong. Smells like flowers, candy also comes to mind. The tea has a long lasting sweetness after the bitterness leaves the mouth – maybe that is where the candy steps in. I put my steep times at the bottom of the rating, but i took some breaks in between some of the steeps. During the breaks there was a really sweet feeling in my mouth, one time for over 20 minutes. This pu has a thick texture, I almost can't believe the price. I only ordered one cake, but i am going back to get more!
Using 150 ml gaiwan and 10 grams of tea
Steep times were: 5s, 10s, 15s, 30s, 30s, 30s, 40s, 40s, 1 minute
I found this tea boring. The little flavor it has just reminds me of grass. I used 4 grams for a 4 oz. gaiwan. I may try using more tea next time.
I would recommend you try more, for a 4 oz. gaiwan (~ 120ml?) I would recommend you use between 7-10 grams. Sorry you didn't like it the first time out!
Thank you for the recommendation. I will give this another try today and rate again with my results. The 2003 Fu Hai 7576 is my favorite so far. It's excellent.
No worries, maybe the Longma Tongqing is just not your cup. Everybody has different tastes – otherwise we would all eat nothing but Cool Ranch Doritos and the world would be a boring place.
The Fu Hai 7576 is quite good and used to be a total bargain. There was recently a release of some fakes into the market, which is usually a good (and bad) sign. If somebody is willing to make the effort to fake a tea, it is usually worthwhile. Unfortunately, the price has been climbing recently due to demand.

A study that evaluated a wide variety of parenting programs found five that help parents and children avoid teen behavior problems.
Children whose mothers drank during pregnancy are more likely to have problems with social skills, compared with their peers whose mothers did not drink while pregnant, according to a new study.
Pregnant women who smoke marijuana may increase their risk of stillbirth three-fold, a new study concludes.
A new animal study suggests male offspring of fathers who use cocaine are more resistant to the drug's rewarding effects, compared with those whose fathers have not used cocaine.
Changes made by makers of cold and cough medicines in 2007 have resulted in a significant decrease in visits by infants and toddlers to hospital emergency rooms due to these medicines, according to a new study.
Use of marijuana and inhalants is more common in teens in the child welfare system compared with other teens, a new study finds.
A federal lawsuit is challenging a Wisconsin measure that allows the forcible confinement of pregnant women who use illegal drugs or alcohol "to a severe degree" and will not accept treatment. The law is known as the "cocaine mom" act.

Theodotus Of Ancyra
Article Free PassTheodotus Of Ancyra, (died c. 446), theologian, bishop of Ancyra, and a leading advocate of orthodoxy in the discussion of the nature and Person of Christ at the Council of Ephesus in 431. Theodotus was a determined opponent of Nestorius, bishop of Constantinople, whose views had led to the summoning of the council and whom Theodotus had earlier supported. Now standing beside Cyril of Alexandria, Nestorius' chief opponent, Theodotus affirmed the two-fold nature united in Christ's Person. Nestorius was condemned, and Theodotus served as a member of the delegation sent by the council to explain its decrees to the Nestorian-leaning emperor Theodosius II. The Nestorian party denounced Theodotus in 432 at its own Synod of Tarsus.
Theodotus' writings include an explanation of the Nicene Creed in which he asserted that Nestorius' views had already been condemned by the first Council of Nicaea in 325. Two sermons on Christmas and one on the "Feast of the Lights" (in honour of the Virgin Mary) are significant witnesses to the existence of these ritual celebrations in the early 5th century. A lost work in six books refuting Nestorius was referred to at the second Council of Nicaea in 787.

I had Power Slots on my Infiniti G20t and knew that they were good performing rotors, so when I need rotors for my Audi, I didn t hesitate to buy them again. So far so good. They aren t Brembo s, but they provide enough stopping performance for aggressive daily driving without spending a whole lot. The same goes with the Akebono euro ceramic pads. I haven t noticed much difference in performance over the Hawk ceramics I used to have. Both take a few stops to warm up to operating temp and provide great stopping power once warm. However, the Akebonos are quieter and provide a little more feel, so will probably stick with them in the future.

This setup, most likely due to the rotors, drastically reduces stopping distance and increases fade resistance. The pads are silent and clean. They do not have much initial bite, but once you apply high pedal pressure, they bite and the car comes to a stop, NOW. It should be noted I still have stock rubber lines to calipers. I imagine upgrading these would increase the responsiveness given the age of car.I find the anti-corrosion finish on the ATE rotors nice and durable.

Akebono Euro-ceramic pads are a great all-around pad. Much better initial bite than the Hawk HPS pads with better dust control, and similar bite to the PBR Ultra-Ceramics with FAR less brake dust and noise. I have not tried them on the track, but have made a couple long mountain descents with no fade issues whatsoever. A great pad for all-around daily driving; good initial bite and pedal modulation, with excellent dust and noise control.

I have had these on my Volvo and they are great. I bought the front and rear brake pads with my new wheels and tires at the tirerack. After getting them, I took them to a tire shop to have them installed and while I was waiting the guy mentioned how I made a good choice in buying these pads (partly due to very little thin/unnoticeable brake dust) and they even had an akebono poster card advertisement in their shop. If anyone owns a Volvo or euro cars, they know about the horrible thick brake dust. I had stock aluminum wheels on prior and it was impossible to keep them clean and after a few days it made the overall look of the car unpleasant (if your wheels aren'' clean then your car isn'' right). The brakes have no noise, brake dust is almost eliminated (you ll be pleasantly surprised as I was). In terms of braking power, it does not have the same heavy bite that stock brake pads have, for example with stock brake pads if you only tap the brake pedal you stop fairly harsh/fast (way too sensitive), while with the Akebono pads it is more gradual which I prefer (less sensitive. I believe it is better this way since, for example, if you want a slow gradual stop you just have to ease/tap the brake pedal, but if you need to stop fast/suddenly you press the pedal down far/further (further than stock), which is a better/smooth feel. But trust me, it does stop when you want it to, as I have avoided several accidents (not my fault) by braking quickly. I''m not sure how long brake pads usually last, and I live in nyc (a lot of stop/go), buy I will be buying another set after these give out (whenever that may be).

These pads have a little less initial bite, compared to the stock pads, most noticeable when the brakes are cold. The stopping power is at least as good as the stock pads. However they have a much more progressive feel (I.E. they are easier to modulate) than the stock pads. There is almost no brake dust from these pads, much, much better than the stock pads in this respect. So far, the wear on the disks is minimal and very even.

If you own a Mercedes Benz, you should buy these pads. I have the sport package on my car with the four piston front brakes. From the factory, these brakes work beautifully. What drives me crazy is that the brake dust is terrible. One drive around the block and you have to clean the wheels again. The pads from Akebono are ceramic and are much cleaner. I am very impressed. After one thousand miles, they are quiet, NVH free, and the wheels are still clean. That''s right - still clean. I combined the pads with Goodridge SS braided brake hoses and cross-drilled rotors from Royalty Rotors of Santa Clara, CA. The brake performance is as good as original if not slightly better. I couldn''t be happier with the result. Buy these pads!

January 04, 2010
I was some what disappointed with the initial performance. I guess I need more time to evaluate since I can still see the design on the rotors. The initial bite is not as good as I would like. I have tried several low dust pads and this seems to be how most of them perform. They are nowhere near the OEM BMW pads in performance but I just can''t tolerate the amount of black brake dust the OEM pads produce.

I purchased the Akebono euro brake pads to go with new Centric premium rotors. The dust is almost zero with these pads and initial bite is a bit lower than stock but still responsive. The combination seems to fade very little during spirited driving and green braking is good. Overall I was very satisfied with this combo until I pulled off my wheels to have the tires replaced. On both front rotors with the akebono pads, there were stress cracks on the face of the rotor. I also noted very little wear on the pads, but significant wearing and scoring of the rotors.The centric semimetallic pads produce slightly more dust than the akebonos, but is still much less than stock, and there is zero noise from the pads. I''ll be placing an order for new Centric pads and rotors for the front brakes and will be removing the akebonos from my vehicle.

The actual and awful name of the movie is '30 Nights of Paranormal Activity with the Devil Inside the Girl with the Dragon Tattoo'. It is another spoof on the recent horror ans thriller movies as you can possibly make out with the name itself. It also runs a spoof on movies like 'The dark knight rises', 'Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter' etc. The movie is a mindless comedy. Here's the trailer.

12 oz. to pint glass. Random X-mas gift.
Bright pale orange with some haze. Giant white head falls to about a finger eventually, gettin' all crater-y and leaving nice lace.
Smell is definitely on the fainter side, but not bad. Grapefruit juice, earthy/herbal hops, bread, pale malts.
Taste is an improvement, a little more hop bitterness here as well. Citrus/grapefruit juice forward with some herbal and grass, bready and grainy malts with light sweetness and a toasty finish.
Full mouthfeel with low-ish carbonation and medium bitterness. Easy-drinking and well-balanced.
Good mix of hoppy pale+blonde ale, definitely wouldn't mind having a few of these in a night.

look: 4 | smell: 3.75 | taste: 3.25 | feel: 3.75 | overall: 3.5
A: Hazy golden brown, not unlike a witbier. one-inch white head that lasts for about 2 minutes before giving way to light, bubbly lacing. Speaking of bubbles, any carbonation is invisible, except for a few bubbles about half and inch from the bottom of the head that shoot right up into the head. Once they've gone, there's no visible carb to speak of.
S: Citrusy, floral hops.
T: Lots of hop bitterness with slight citrus notes coming through on the finish.
M: Thick and heavy, with more carbonation than the appearance lets on. It's a slightly below average amount, but it's there although the appearance suggests otherwise.
O: It's not bad, but in my opinion, it would be so much better if the citrus hops were more prominent in the taste. That may be just me, though. The bottle says that the citrus hops are there for aroma and the bitter hops are there for taste, so I can't fault the brewer or the beer itself for not being exactly to my liking.

On tap at the source.
Comes to the table a crystal clear pale straw color with a solid white head that leaves lots of lace. The aroma is light sugar with a bready hint and spicy floral hops to balance. The flavor is light sugar with a solid spicy hop bite and low hop bitterness. Medium body with a moderate to high level of carbonation and a slick bubbly mouthfeel. Decent enough brew but not my favorite of the night.

12 oz bottle was poured into a pint glass.
Appearance: This beer poured a one finger head that reduced to a thin layer and left some ice lacing on the glass. It is a pale yellow color with some clarity and bubbles coming up through the glass.
Smell: A little citrus followed by light caramel and bready malts.
Taste: Same as above with some lingering bitterness in the end.
Mouthfeel: Chewy, a bit smooth, light to medium bodied bodied, lingering bitterness, and medium carbonation.
Overall: More of an IPA than an APA, but still a good beer.

Hazy golden appearance, similar to honey. Two finger head after normal pour with nice lacing on the sides of glass
Citrus and flowers in the nose. Smells hoppy and vibrant.
The taste is a great balance of sweet and bitter. The hops are present throughout, starting mildly and building after initial contact with the tongue. The finish is not overly bitter, though. There is sweetness and complexity in the finish as opposed to just bitterness that is common with some pale ales. Excellent
medium bodied and mildly carbonated. standard pale ale feel.
Overall this is an excellent pale ale. I could drink a bunch!

On-tap 7/10/13 at Doherty's East Irish Pub in Pawtucket, RI, served in a US tumbler pint glass.
A: The beer is a deep gold color, with a thin white head that fades slowly and leaves a thick lace on the glass.
S: The aroma is faint but contains caramelized malts, some citrus and some hops.
T: The taste starts out bready with a hearty but not too heavy malt character. Then a strong but not over-powering hops presence comes in. There's a mild citrus sweetness that brings a good balance. The after-taste is slightly bready and slightly hoppy.
M: Crisp and smooth, medium body, medium carbonation, finish is dry.
O: Tasty, goes down easily, not too filling, decent kick, good representation of style, it's a solid beer to drink for a while.

Reviewed from notes. Had this at the Marlboro, MA festival.
A - Pours a hazy light yellow hue with a quarter inch head that slowly fades to a thin blanket.
S - Aroma is a bit too bready for my liking, with some light grassy hops.
T - Taste is fairly solid. Nicely grassy hops with some faint bread/yeast notes.
M - Mouthfeel is fairly typical, medium bodied.
O - Overall, not a bad APA, just too malty/bready for my tastes.

Never heard of this brewery before, and it's right in my backyard over in Hartford, which is closer than Boston. Oh yeah, a date on the bottle! Bottled on 2/28/13.
The head rises up after the pour finishes and gets to a nice 1.5 finger fluffy and thick head, that fades semi slowly with nice soapy lacing, over a hazy sediment laden obviously bottle conditioned and unfiltered. So far so good...
nose is nice for an APA, grassy slightly herbal earthy hops, a bit of a leafy hop aroma, with some grainy toasty blond malts. Pretty simple but done fairly well.
Taste is lighter at first, but not bad... a light grainy toasty blond malt kicks off first with a slight juicy malt sweetness and faint amber malt flavor. Then hops kick into gear, lighter at first but increases with each second in my mouth and each sip. starting with a grassy leafy hop and mild bitterness, slightly herbal and earthy as well but not vegetal or that Euro style hop I can hate. A very light juicy citrus hop kicks in as well, but very light, with a faint orange pith. The hops get a little spicy the longer it goes and more bitter, to finish with a quite bitter spicy earthy grassy hop that dries quite a bit, long quite bitter grassy spicy hop finish that borders astringent.
Mouth is med bodied, nice fluffy carb.
Overall a nice APA, drinkable, tasty, decent hop to malt balance but the malts are a little light overall, nice carb, nice hop profile as that seems to be what they were going for the grassy leafy slightly herbal hop flavors, although I don't really get teh "West Coast American" aroma hops.

A- Poured from the 12oz bottle into a small snifter, not perfect but I feel like snifters handle all styles very well. A fairly clear body with a blonde color. A foamy head forms with fine bubbles and about one finger high, nice retention. This cap leaves a lot of long, fuzzy lace rings.
S- European hops with some sweet light caramel malts come out the most in the aroma. Floral, some citrus, peach and herbal hops in the nose. Fades out pretty quickly after drinking some, have to really try to pick things up.
T- Hop flavor is immediately more noticeable here, specifically the elements of Euro hops. The classic spicy and herbal flavor comes through as well as some floral, pine and grassy elements. Light malt sweetness, fresh cracked grain and some caramel provide a backdrop for the hops. A lot more bitter than I would expect, just seems like an abrasive bitterness not like the good hoppy kind.
MF- Light body overall with big, foamy carbonation that feels silky on the palate. A good creamy texture with the aforementioned harsh bitterness.
Pretty decent hoppy pale which I respect because of the heavy use of European hop strains. However, there is a semi-abrasive bitterness that isn't the good kind that comes with most hoppy brews, could be a few things but it takes away a bit from the enjoyment.

Blonde in name and color only, not really a "Blonde Ale" - but description says a very hoppy pale ale, so that's spot on. Certainly more pronounced aroma and bite than typical pale, verging more on mild American IPA in taste and mouthfeel. Strong cascade presence in aroma and taste. Great on tap at the brewpub.

A: Poured from the bottle into a pint glass. Body is hazy dark golden with a small whitish head. Decent amount of lace left behind.
S: Fruity and hoppy - citrusy hops over fruity yeast and sweet malt.
T: Good balance between sweet and bitter, with a good amount of fruitiness thrown in as well. Starts out fruity, then becomes malty-sweet (think honey and butterscotch). Finishes with citrus (orange & lemon) bitterness.
M: Light-to-medium in heft. Good creaminess.
O: Good stuff.

A quasi-local beer here in southern Connecticut; had one from a bottle tonight after a nice one on draft several weeks ago. I do wonder if the style is most properly listed as American Pale, when it seems to be making a conscious effort to be a lighter-flavored beer.
In any case it is a crisply dry brew with a healthy quantity of hop bitterness. A fine and refreshing mouthfeel, while by no means bursting with carbonation.
This would be a truly outstanding beer at 4.5%. At 6% it's too alcoholic for a session beer, which is what its flavor is best suited to. Still, really enjoyable and a beer I'll return to this summer.

Served in a pint glass with a nice one and a half fingers worth of a creamy and bubbly white head. Clear pale straw colored body. Good lacing and fair retention.
Smells like a juicy grapefruit, some pine resin and bready yeast.
Tastes like a bubbly, juicy grapefruit mixed with some pine and bready malt flavors. A firm lingering resinous bitterness.
Medium bodied, medium carbonation. Somewhat coating and oily on the finish.
Overall this is a great beer. Nice job Ron. This is fairly well balanced with great hop character.
$5.50 a pint.

From the external appearance, I could have assume that this beer would be as simple as many of the mass produced brews.
It pured just slightly more amber than your 'light' beers.
But thats where the similarity ended!. The nose was full of hops and citrus. There was a definite bouquet fresh pink grapefruits.
The first taste was like the bouquet. A good dose of hops, just the right bitterness along with nice citrus lemon,orange grapefruit.
This one tasted very crisp and alive. The mouthful was big along with a good lingering after taste
Surprisingly nice

A - A nice 3 finger head of off-white/cream foam. Body is golden blonde. Head sticks around for a while and becomes rocky. A little lacing.
S - It has that artificial sweet scent like pez. I get some floral smells as well.
T - Again with what I taste as artificial sugar. There are some good hops though that help out. Very mellow. Some lime and orange flavors
M - Carbonation is a little much. Body is just about right.

Had a couple of drafts of this at a local neighborhood bar. Not a bad pale ale but not the best.
Color was a pale golden, typical of the style with a good amount of carbonation.
Aroma was of hops but not as strong as I would have liked. A little more citrusy than I would have expected for an East Coast beer.
Flavor was similar to the aroma but a little underwhelming.
Decent beer. Not great.

12oz bottle with a Bottled On Date of 2011-09-27. Pours a hazy burnt orange color with a half inch of head. Fair amount of lacing. Aroma is tangy with some floral and tropical fruit notes. Taste is floral hops with some fruit flavor. Can't really put my finger on what fruits. Nice amount of hop flavor. A bit tangy. Floral again near the end. I've had this at the brewery before and its one of their better offerings. Glad to see it bottled. Now I just hope Acapulco Gold gets bottled. Overall, solid pale ale with a good amount of hops.

unretired, bottled, and now distributed at least locally
A - pale yellow, blonde indeed, a thin white head fades to a lacy ring fed by moderate carbonation
S - delectable hop profile, but not overpowering. Easily distinguishing this from an IPA. Malty sweetness in the form of oaky vanilla-ness backs up that aroma creating a bipartisan bouquet.
T - The two main parts of the aroma have appeared to battle it out in the flavor, and the hop profile won. The piney, grapefruity hoppiness hits big and hits first. The sweetness remains cloying, its there, but never really lands and finished with a wallop of pine
M&D - lively on the palate, a bit hoppier than I expected, perhaps not for a beginning hophead, not because it is a hop bomb, but because its a bit unassuming in the hops department

Not retired anymore. pours a clear golden yellow with lots of bubbles. Small head of thick and quickly dissipating odd white bubbles. Smells of grassy hops and a bit of citrus. A sharp bitter hop on the tail end stings the nostrils. Undertones of sweet caramel malt and honey. Taste starts out sweet then has a really nice earthy, slighty citrus hop flavor. Just a hint of bitterness at the end. It's all carried through with a nice malt character that is sweet and a bit corn-like. Mouthfeel is light and very drinkable.
The vibrant hops are nice and shine well. Malts is basic and a bit soapy, which is a bit odd. Overall a pretty nice beer.

Martha Sparks
Society Editor
W.Va. Sen. Art Kirkendoll is required to take his oath of office at the Capitol in Charleston, but his friends and family gathered at the Logan County Courthouse Monday to hear him take the oath locally. His family stood close by and looked on as his wife Barbara held the Bible and Judge Eric O'Briant administered the oath. Kirkendoll says he loves the people and will always take care of the children and seniors and listen to everyone. He takes pride in his "Open Door" policy and welcomes anyone who comes to see him.

Guns To Mexico: Once again blaming his own country for Mexico's gun violence without mentioning Fast and Furious, the gun runner in chief pledges to find and jail gun smugglers. Perhaps he should start with his own administration.
'We recognize that most of the guns used to commit violence here in Mexico come from the United States. ... We'll keep increasing the pressure on the gun traffickers who bring illegal guns into Mexico, and we'll keep putting these criminals where they belong — behind bars," President Obama told students assembled at the Anthropology Museum in Mexico City on Friday, repeating a big lie he's said before.
Obama did not mention Fast and Furious, the administration's gunrunning operation into Mexico, which started in the fall of 2009 and ended in December 2010 only after Border Patrol Agent Brian Terry was murdered in Arizona with one of the weapons we provided to the Mexican drug cartels.
Immigration Customs Enforcement Agent Jaime Zapata was also killed by Fast and Furious weapons, as have been hundreds of Mexican nationals.
The alleged purpose of the program was to track the guns along their path into Mexico and arrest the dealers, straw buyers and drug cartel members involved.
But testimony by ATF agents that they were ordered not to interdict the flow or make arrests exposed that rationale as a fraud.
We and others have suggested the purpose was to let the guns walk, let violence caused by this weapons spiral out of control, then exploit the carnage and violence to advance the president's gun control agenda, just as the president tried to do Friday by repeating his big lie.
Here's what House Oversight Committee Chairman Darrell Issa told the NRA's mid-April national convention in St. Louis in April 2012:
"Could it be that what they really were thinking of was, in fact, to use this — this walking of guns — in order to promote an assault-weapons ban? Many think so, and they haven't come up with an explanation that would cause any of us not to agree."
On April 16, 2009, just eight months before Terry's murder, Obama said during a visit to Mexico:
"This (Mexican drug) war is being waged with guns purchased not here, but in the United States. More than 90% of the guns recovered in Mexico come from the United States, many from gun shops that line our shared border."
Advice And Consent: In a stinging political defeat and a sign even Democrats are getting fed up with the White House's in-your-face radicalism, the Senate has rejected Obama's controversial nominee for civil rights chief. In 2011, the president selected radical NAACP lawyer Debo Adegbile for a ...
Welfare: The president's assertion that a family with at least one full-time worker "should not have to live in poverty" is a worthy goal — and not a little ironic coming from someone whose policies have discouraged work. The list of Obama's anti-work policies includes extensions of ...
Economy: When not making excuses for President Obama's dismal economic record, liberals try to explain away Texas' stellar growth. But what choice do they have? The Lone Star State proves limited government works. After Gov. Rick Perry entered the presidential primaries in 2011, the left made a ...
Vladimir Putin is a lucky man. And he's got three more years of luck to come. He takes Crimea, and President Obama says it's not in Russia's interest, not even strategically clever. Indeed, it's a sign of weakness. Really? Crimea belonged to Moscow for 200 years. Russia conquered it 20 years before ...
'We march backwards into the future" is a line written by mass media theorist Marshall McLuhan. He wrote it 50 years ago, but his words describe exactly how present-day media analysts, academicians and elected officials are approaching national security issues. And that's no way to prepare for the ...
