2 November 2010
The Haitian government, humanitarian agencies and the UN mission in Haiti are teaming up in response to approaching Hurricane Tomas, UN spokesman Martin Nesirky said on Monday. (..) Currently food supplies sufficient to feed 1.1 million Haitians for six weeks are pre-positioned in the most vulnerable areas across the country by the World Food Program.
24 October 2010
In a bustling street of a downtown area, a police constable sells lemon juice outside a private hospital when he is off-duty and in his normal clothes. (..) A recent report jointly published by the UN Food and Agriculture Organisation and World Food Programme provides further evidence to the increasing levels of poverty in the country. (..) The study links several recent incidents of violence to the food crisis, including the 2009 bombing of a World Food Programme office in Islamabad.
24 October 2010
The spread of the cholera outbreak in Haiti is beginning to slow down, even as humanitarian agencies continue to step up treatment and preventive measures(...)The UN World Food Programme (WFP) has commenced the distribution of ready-to-eat meals as well as high energy biscuits to hospitals in affected areas, in en effort to ensure people do not eat food that could have been cooked with contaminated water.
14 October 2010
Nine months after a huge earthquake devastated Haiti, destroying 80% of schools in and around its capital, teachers and aid workers have hit on a healthy way to get children back to class: serve them a hot meal. (..) About 1,400 children from the slums attend the school, and providing them with one square meal a day is a relief for mothers who can not always provide for their children, said the principal as she oversaw delivery of a truckload of aid from the UN's World Food Programme (WFP). (..) "Together with the school meals program of the government, we are targeting more than one million children this year," said Anne Poulsen, a WFP spokeswoman.
14 October 2010
As winter approaches on Pakistan's flooded southern plains, thousands of malnourished children are living in dirty, spartan tents without prospect of a home, officials and UN workers say. (..) As the season cools and winter rains arrive, UN officials at the World Food Programme said that stockpiling food is an urgent issue."Rapid assessments of nutritional status and clinical observations strongly suggest that rates of acute malnutrition are rising," said WFP spokeswoman Jackie Dent.
1 October 2010
The combined power of social networks, mobile phones and mapping technology has created an unprecedented opportunity to enable citizens to seek help in a disaster, experts say. (..) Jen Ziemke and Patrick Meier founded the International Network of Crisis Mappers, which links many organisations developing crowdsourcing for humanitarian work (..). What sort of partnerships would you like to see in the future? Meier: (..) Another example that actually happened in Haiti was when World Food Programme and other search-and-rescue teams teams sent students at Fletcher university hundreds of locations that they needed GPS coordinates for.
22 September 2010
Food production in Haiti is still significantly below levels that existed prior to the January 2010 earthquake, but is slowly recovering, according to a report by the UN Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO). The spring harvest in the region saw bean production fall 17 percent, the UN FAO found in a joint assessment with the UN World Food Program. Maize production fell 8 percent, while plantains were down 5 percent, the report said.
1 September 2010
The other day, I received a reminder from Burwinkel Farms about the "yummy fruits and vegetables" still available for the summer season. Burwinkel operates a stand around the corner from my home and they specialize in sweet corn!! (..) The World Food Programme (WFP) says: "Many smallholder farmers lose a significant percentage of their produce due to poor storage facilities and poor storage techniques. Crops rot or are stolen." WFP helps farmers to improve storage facilities through the Purchase for Progress initiative.
24 August 2010
Hundreds of thousands of Haitians affected by January's devastating earthquake are expected to obtain work and food through programs funded by $47.5 million in foreign grants. (..) The USAID has awarded a second, $35 million grant to the World Food Program, which runs a cash-for-work program. The program already employs nearly 50,000 but with the grant is expected to grow to 140,000 participants by the end of this year, Weisenfeld said.
20 August 2010
United Nations projects in health, education, job creation, rubble removal, reproductive health and improving access to food have been approved for Haiti as the poor Caribbean country continues its effort to rebuild after January's catastrophic earthquake. (..) The UN Development Programme (UNDP) reported that it has received approval for a $65 million project to rehabilitate infrastructure, building on earlier cash-for-work projects that have given more than 120,000 jobs since the quake. The new project, which will be carried out in conjunction with the World Food Programme (WFP),(..) is expected to provide temporary jobs for 300,000 people over the next 12 months.

Caleb's Pick of the Week: Ghost Rider #22
Wednesday, April 16, 2008
I've always loved the concept of Ghost Rider, but never actually been able to get into the comics, which usually read like listless superhero horror. But Jason Aaron (Scalped) is three issues into his run now, and has nailed it. He gets that this book is about visceral supernatural grindhouse, and has been packing each issue with more entertainment than I ever even knew they were missing, while Roland Boschi's artwork is like the kinetic offspring of Eduardo Risso and John Romita, Jr.. Gun-toting motorcycle nurses, a ghost-cannibal stretch of highway, decapitations, hellfire and brimstone, a spirit stallion and rebel angels...all at murderously high velocities. This book is exactly what a Ghost Rider comic should be.

Group for centrist Democrats runs out of money. Does it matter?
The moderate Democratic Leadership Council suspends operations. Liberals rejoice, others say the DLC succeeded in moving the party to the middle.
(Page 2 of 2)
On Capitol Hill, the ranks of the moderates have thinned in recent elections. The resignation of centrist Rep. Jane Harman (D) of California, to become president of the Woodrow Wilson International Center for Scholars here in Washington, means the departure of yet another centrist "Blue Dog" Democrat from the House. The Blue Dogs have gone from 54 members in the last Congress to 25 now. Republican moderates have taken a similar beating, either through retirement or election losses.
Skip to next paragraphSubscribe Today to the Monitor
But that hollowing out of the center on Capitol Hill is more a sign of the continuing polarization of Congress, not that there's no possibility of action in the center – especially when the president and congressional leadership want to go there. In addition, notes Third Way co-founder Matt Bennett, a lot of the centrist Democrats who lost last fall held seats that were in traditionally Republican areas.
Mr. Bennett speaks charitably of the DLC's accomplishments, noting that the group helped develop Clinton's brand of welfare reform and his approach to free trade.
"They were enormously influential for 2-1/2 decades," says Bennett. "They really had a huge impact on the way the country is governed and, more immediately, on the way the Democratic Party operates. So the end of that is not insignificant."
Some liberals are crowing over the demise of the DLC. They argue that the group made some critical mistakes in positioning, including its backing of the Iraq War and support for Sen. Joe Lieberman (I) of Connecticut in the 2004 Democratic presidential primary.
But just as likely, analysts say, the DLC simply wrote themselves out of a job.
"It was a great platform for Bill Clinton; it probably helped him get elected president," says William Klein, a Democratic publicist in Silver Spring, Md. "But that was a long time ago. Since then, it's just a group that nobody's thought about too much. You could say, more charitably, that they won the revolution. The Democratic Party moved to the center."

Canon EOS 60D with 18-135mm lens review

It's not easy following the trajectories of Canon and Nikon's SLR product lines. As Nikon replaces its superb but aging D90 with the considerably more upmarket Nikon D7000, the Canon 60D is in many ways a downgrade to the 50D it replaces. It's encased in plastic rather than magnesium alloy, has fewer buttons and slower continuous performance. However, the 60D is still a tempting alternative to the more affordable Canon 550D, so let's examine how these two differ.
The short answer is hardly at all. They share the same 18-megapixel sensor, DIGIC 4 processor, 63-zone metering system and – by and large – the same range of photographic functions. The 60D's nine autofocus points are all cross-type for increased accuracy whereas only the 550D's centre autofocus point is cross-type. It also has a manual volume control for its video function. Otherwise, though, the quality of their photos and videos is identical for any given lens.
The video mode has the same virtues and flaws. It offers full control over the aperture, shutter speed, ISO speed and frame rate – a critical feature for creative videographers. Quality was excellent, with crisp details, rich colours, barely any noise and no sign of compression artefacts, thanks to the AVC codec and massive 45Mbit/s bit rate. The resulting files are huge, though, and require a fast PC for playback and editing. It also means that the 4GB file limit equates to around 12 minutes of video at 24fps. There's no countdown to warn when recording is about to stop.
Sound quality from the internal mono microphone was excellent, and there's a stereo minijack for an external microphone. Autofocus during video recording was terrible, though. The focus darted back and forth like a learner driver trying to reverse park, the soundtrack was obliterated with lens motor noise and manual exposure settings were interrupted as the camera adjusted the image to assist the autofocus. Creative videographers will be happy to focus manually but this video mode isn't for casual use. We also found that inadequate anti-aliasing sometimes created moiré patterns and odd motion in dense textures – something that won't bother casual users but is more of an issue for discerning use.

I love this place! Seriously, since I moved here from PA this is my favorite restaurant. The food is delicious (try the Muscat Toast) and the service is really friendly and attentive. Dessert is spectacular and I really like the atmosphere. It's a bit pricey, but definitely worth it.

I have been coming to Cafe Muskat for 3 years now and it remains my favorite restaurant. The staff is nice, the atmosphere is great, and the food is delicious. My recommendation is the Mediterranean Toast with Israeli Salad. Everyone I've brought LOVES it. Their desserts are also phenomenal. You can't lose with this place. Best Israeli salad I've ever had.

I visited them today & they are offering iphone 5s at $255…
i need to know if i can trust it & don't have any hidden cost.
Is avobuy.com trustable for buying iphone?
Ill be purchasing one next week, Ill post if I recieve it.
I purchased it when it was $150.00 and the catch is it will take 4months to get to you… Seems like it's legit! I guess I will see in December or January. Read all of the fine print on the site.seriously, I called.and its associated with Avo Comm, and the owner of this site is Alan Vo.
but besides that point, I am just trying it.and I will let you know for sure if it's real…
This question stresses me out as I am trying to find ways to speed up the shipping process. With AVOBUY if you're expecting to be getting your orders at a specific time, then don't buy from them. They will not give you status update of any kind until they shipped your order. You can call them 100 times a day asking for updates, they will still smile and say within 90+ days even if they were going to ship it tomorrow.
Bottom line, if you can wait, then shop with them. If you can't, shop on apple.com or amazon.com - they are great! You can get your orders shipped overnight~!
They're selling factory unlocked iPhone 5S for $255 and they provide free shipping worldwide. It's too good to be true. I'm sure it's a scam or they're selling cheap Chinese knock-off of iPhone 5S. If you need iPhone 5S without contract or unlocked at reasonable price, mail me.
Hello Yana may you send me you mail address. Marco

The Most Excessive Hotel Ever?
There is a real range of luxury hotels in the world — from the down to earth comfort of "Forbes top hotel" San Ysidro Ranch in Santa Barbara, California, to the old school European grandeur of the Four Seasons George V hotel in Paris.
And then you have flat out crazy, fake snow-making flash of the new Mardan Palace in… Turkey! I bet you thought I was going to say Dubai, the current champion of hotel excess. But this new property, owned by Russian billionaire Telman Ismailov, who spent more than £1billion to create his dream hotel, takes vulgar to a new level.
Showbiz reporter Ashley Pearson managed to get herself an invitation to the "grand" opening of the hotel and wrote up her visit for the Mail Online, which is always a good source for a little celebrity leering. In fact, celebrity attendees at the event included:
- Sharon Stone (sounds as crazy as ever, "I consider leopard-print a neutral")
- Richard Gere (who was just there to get money for his foundation)
- Seal (mispronounced Ismailov's name)
- Mariah Carey (she was the big name performer, reportedly for £1million!)
- Tom Jones (he opened for Mariah)
- Paris Hilton (towing her dummie boyfriend Doug Reinhardt)
- Monica Bellucci (gorgeous and can't speak English)
Suites at the Mardan Palace can go for as much as £11,500 a night. The rooms are just as exquisite as you would expect for $20k+ — no bedbugs or jungle spiders here!
There is the fake snow room, for rolling in after a sauna (Ashley Pearson's detail, not mine), there is a five acre pool, and you can swim in a man-made coral reef and shark grotto. You know, when you want to live large and dangerous, like rich people.
Is this kind of hotel relevant or necessary these days? No. Is it even ethical to spend a couple billion dollars to make another over the top hotel when there are people starving? Probably not. And can Ismailov justify the carbon footprint that this kind of operation generates? I doubt it.
But even with those three strikes, this place will probably become a big success, because there are still people out there with so much money, they almost can't help themselves from staying in a place like this. And I have to admit, I sort of shame-envy them. What can I say? That pool looks really nice.

I would recommend using a lvl 3 and up Fomor because it can fly, but using a high level Gorgo with high damage monsters would work.
I have made a strategy at least I consider effective against Moloch's (Or whatever his name was) bases. Ichi's and Fang's. Use Ichi's to soak up tower damage, use Fang's and Champion (Preferably lvl 3 and up Fomor and not low lvl Gorgo) to kill towers and (More importantly) The Under Hall. I know there is many flaws to this strategy and currently I only tested it against the earlier bases, so feel free to point out flaws and list your own Strategies below!

How to build a rustic tipi for climbing plants
These quick supports are inexpensive, easy to move and fun
Old tools tipi
Those old tools you have lying around in the garage may be too weathered to be of practical use, but consider forming them into a rustic tipi.
Once placed in a garden setting, all that rusty metal and weather-beaten wood becomes charming and nostalgia-inducing. The tipi at left started with a common galvanized steel tomato cage, cut to fit.
This takes the bulk of the foliage, allowing the used tools to be on greater display. The garden tools are simply placed outside the tomato support and tied at the top with twine. Most old tools have handles made of hickory or other very hard wood, so they can last for a surprising number of years.

3.05/5 rDev -26.9%
look: 4 | smell: 3 | taste: 3 | feel: 4 | overall: 2.5
Appearance: onyx-black, medium layer of tan foam with OK retention at first, then just a thin film
Aroma: coffee, chocolate liqueur, faint malts, vanilla, a very subdued aroma that slowly stacks up and becomes a little more substantial
Flavor: midly sweet then lots of roast then a hop bitterness takes charge for a second or two before oat-stout sweetness appears, faint chocolate notes, finishes semi-sweet with chicory and dark chocolate truffle in the aftertaste
Mouthfeel: medium-full body, terse carbonation, alcohol warmth, a bit astringent
Other comments: The aroma is surprisingly subdued. You really have to hunt for it at first. After a while it seems a little more present, but you'd think there would be more to it. A decent stout. I wonder what the "natural chocolate flavoring" is.
This bottle was courtesy of frank4sail, who brought it (amongst many others) to Belgium for me. I shared it with Belgianbeers during an "American Craft-brew" tasting the other night.

This was on nitro-tap. What the hell was my favorite beer bar thinking? Talk about almost ruining a great beer. This isn't Guiness so don't make the mistake of treating it like Guiness.
Appearance - dark as a no-star night in Maine. So dark you can't find your way through the forest.
Smell - I swear nitro-refrigeration affects the aroma, even if it's only in my mind. Overly cooled brew, no hints of chocolate, cara, or coffee. No hop aroma (not surpising). Just a little bit of bland malty aroma.
Taste - A touch of chocolate. My guess is that due to the nitro-pour, no way this brew was ever going to warm up to a decent temp and consistency in my life time. Bottled is way better. Hops, however light, seemed murdered by the nitro.
Mouthfeel - a little thin
Drinkability - just okay, didn't get a second, which is unusual. Too cold, too bland.

I was not greatly impressed with this beer. It certainly looked the part of a sweet stout, but the flavor and mouthfeel were very reminiscent of Yoohoo chocolate drink to me...which is to say chocolate-y (in a way) yet a bit thin and watery.
This beer certainly looks the part of a top-notch stout; it was black and opaque, although not particularly viscous. Head formation was creamy and sturdy. Aroma was chocolate-y and coffee-ish, but not overpowering. Flavor was as I said, very reminiscent of Yoohoo. Mouthfeel was a bit thin.
Id weakly recommend this beer.
I picked up this 22oz bottle from Garys Liquor in Oak Creek, WI.

look: 3 | smell: 2.5 | taste: 3 | feel: 2.5 | overall: 4
Appearance - A huge fistful of head that exploded over the mug and out onto the floor. A rich chocolate frothy lump on top. Decent lacing.
Smell - Only chocolate and malt.
Taste - A cola-like chocolate that seemed slightly skunked. A more bitter chocolate. It honestly didn't taste all too different from the Samuel Adams Chocolate Bock I had earlier today.
Mouthfeel - A smooth and tasty coffee flavor. Remains a bit skunked. Perhaps I got an older bottle.
Drinkability - Easily drinkable and a little watery. I don't see anything too special in this stout.
Verdict - I personally couldn't find what was so special about this stout. One of the less impressive chocolate stouts I've had. As I said, perhaps my bottle was a little old.

Pours a nice dark black with a mocha creamy head. It has some beautiful lacing as well as I let the the head dissipate.
Right off the bat I get some roasted maltiness in the nose. Dry cocoa powder and crusty bread as well. The more I smell it, for lack of a better description, it reminds me of when you first enter an old attic. Kind of musty and stale, but not necessarily bad.
The taste is nothing of what I expected. Right up front it threw me off with a chalky, dry cocoa taste. I guess after reading the bottle it makes sense but I get very earthy grains as well. I do not get a lot in the middle but I get bitterness in the finish as well as some burnt coffee grounds which I always enjoy.
This beer is thin without a ton of body. I might be biased as I have been drinking mostly bigger, imperial stouts lately with a lot more viscosity.
Over all this is an interesting beer that surprised me. I am glad I tried it but I was expecting a bit more.

I ought to be more critical, but I don't have it in me today...
A- pours a dark brown, almost black into a highball glass. The head is a foamy, rich mocha color. gorgeous.
A- One dimensional, but incredibly distinct. Smells like a chocolate milk that has been sitting out in the sun. A little musty, and buttery. It's a smell you'll never forget... even if you want to.
T- Mirrors the taste. The chocolate notes are there, but they're not becoming of a Stout. I've have "chocolate" Porters and Stouts, but it never tastes like this. This reminds me of artificially sweetened cocoa powder.... not a chocolate stout. DISTINCT American hops. They're not the main feature, but they're unavoidable, particularly in the finish.
If it were competing w/ Aunt Jemima's Syrup, I'd call it a competitive attempt, but I'd pick the syrup.
I'm sounding harsh, but only beause of other beers I have had. I do enjoy drinking this, but it's not a hallmark Stout.
It finishes dry... and it's unoffensive: those are features to its credit.
M- creamy, almost silky. Gives way to dryness.
O- Not my cup of tea. I was expecting more. ROGUE's Oatmeal Stout blows this away!!! I'd pick most any ROGUE beer I have had over this one; though I'm not familiar with more than half their line-up.
This just tastes too one-dimensional, and that flavor isn't overwhelmingly appealing. In fact, I could almost do without it.
I guess this beer can be regarded like lots of visiting family members: they're great at first, but then they just become nagging.

A * Poured into a simple pint glass. Dark, dark in pour, dark in the cup. Zero transperancy. Light brown head that dwindles down to nothing across the surface, light stickyness of head wedged in the corner where the beer meets the cup. Lacing is thin lines but plentiful all the way around the cup.
S * Wow. Smells wonderful. Smells like walking into a fine chocolate shop. Dark chocolate, malt, coffee, and molasses.
T * I'm confused here. I don't pick up any hops in the nose but they are very prominent, almost too bitter for what I'm prepared for. I am expecting dark chocolate and malt, which are there, but the taste is overwhelmed with hop bitterness, almost soured in combination with the other flavors. Reminiscent of old coffee. I'm wondering if this bottle has been sitting under the lights too long.
M * Smooth, kinda creamy, over-carbonated. I'm immediately hit with an odd sour bitterness in the back of my tongue which is throwing off any potential it has for a good creamy mouthfeel.
D/Overall * I'm disappointed. I'm kinda worried this was an old bottle that was sitting for too long. I got it for $4.99 which around here is an amazing price for a Rogue 22oz, generally they're $6.99. I will try this again, but not until I find it on tap.

Based on rep I thought this one would drink like a chocolate shake so to speak. Full disclosure, after kbs and to a lessor degree southern tiers chokolat, maybe I'm ruined. Still with less alcohol I anticipated a quaffer. A tasty stout but no standout IMO.

I did not enjoy this beer. Purchased in bomber form, the beer poured nicely, but my hopes began to wane when I sniffed it. Too much chocolate. The chocolate nose reminded me of chocolate syrup for lattes, which is never as good as Hershey's syrup--which isn't very good. The taste was more offensive--like someone dumped a bunch of flavoring into what could have been a good beer. Well, someone did. Although I did not like the strength of the chocolate, it was the synthetic characteristic that I couldn't get past.

Bomber to pint glass
Had a LONG week of work and couldn't wait to drink this for the first time.
A - Cracked it open and poured (with a slightly heavy wrist) into my pint glass. Looks good. DARK brown - almost black - even in the light. Not much head (1/3 inch even with the slightly agitated pour) but a nice tan color.
S - Maltiness... Chocolate.... Nuttiness... Coffee? In that order. hmmmm, let's see how it performs
T - I left a little dinner on my plate, skipped desert, and passed on sweats all day for this?!? Where's the chocolate? I taste an average-stout, with average maltiness, and some hints of chocolate and nuts. A little too hoppy.
M - Oily / watery stout. Slightly under-carbonated. Not exactly pleasing to the palate.
Look, I understand the paradigm that chocolate stouts should not be over-chocolatey, however, this is will be a disappointment to anyone looking for an even-slightly sweet treat. It was drinkable, but boring. According to the website, this stout is:
"Ebony in color with a rich creamy head. The mellow flavor of oats, chocolate malts and real chocolate are balanced perfectly with the right amount of hops for a bitter-sweet finish."
-Color was ebony, but the creamy head was not.
-Oats? No.
-Chocolate malts and real chocolate? Meh, malts and a hint of chocolate.
-Too much hops making the beer more bitter than sweet.

Bomber poured into a Samuel Smith's pint glass.
A - slightly aggressive pour at first yields a huge, tan colored head. this beer with only the faintest reddish hue on the edges when held up to a bright light. head slowly dissipates over a few minutes, clinging to the side of the glass. the high point of this beer.
S - if you've ever burned brownies or hershey bars on the stove, this is the scent. offset slightly by a bit of toasted malt, very faint toffee and coffee. tried my hardest to detect any hint of alcohol in the nose but to no avail.
T - more slightly burnt chocolate. initial sweetness is balanced pretty well by the malts, and then a bit of hop bitterness at the back of the tongue...and there's the alcohol! aftertaste is more of the same, and lingers for quite awhile. as it warms, the coffee notes become a little more prevalent.
M - pretty strong carbonation, a bit too much. leaves behind a chalky kind of texture on the tongue, and the taste (though not bad) just refuses to go away. wished this was a little creamier.
D - though not really heavy, i'm half-struggling to finish all 22oz on my own. kind of tasty, but every few minutes i find myself taking another sip just to fight the overly chalky aftertaste.
Notes: i've had this beer numerous times, and can see myself being in the mood for it in the future, although not too often. wish this was a bit thicker, a little sweeter with a little less "burnt" taste, and in a smaller bottle.
-my first formal review on BA. was planning on doing it with a "better" beer, but figured I would just jump in tonight. cheers!

A- Pours a cola brown that collects into a black body with hints of red. Deep tan head that never really goes away, throwing some lacing up the sides of the glass.
S- Strong. Big wafts of chocolate. It smells like a tootsie roll.
T- Less chocolate that I expected. Mostly roasty and charred. Some earthiness towards the end followed by some hops.
M- Thinner than I had hoped. Fluffy carbonation. Smooth
D- This is an alright beer. Nothing awful but I dont think I'll have it again.

I had a pint of this while visiting Kclingers. THe beer comes in a pint glas and there is a thin creamy tan head floating on the surface. The color of the beer is drak brown with no lite passing through when held up. The aroma is rich and chocolatey, no surprise there. The chocolate is actually fairly sweet like cocoa powder of a hershey bar. First sip reveals a fairly thick body and very mild carbonation. Nice and smooth beer. Then the flavor, things go down a little here IMO. The beer is very sweet chocolate flavored like eating a candy bar over and over. By about mid pint it gets to be very cloying and not very enjoyable. Maybe with some fruit or vanilla ice cream but with a dinner it is just too much sweet chocolate. Of course if you really dig that this is for you. I am turned off by the overdose of chocolate and wish it was some more roasted notes or coffee to balance the sweetness.

A- When poured into a glass it has a very nice dark brown head that stays around a while. The color of the beer is dark brown with a hint of translucense.
S- Very strong burnt smell too it. Almost too much. Drowns out most of the other flavoring to it.
T- Again, very strong burnt taste to it. I can taste some of the chocolate and other flavors to it. Unfortunately the overpowering taste is the burnt coffee. Burnt is the correct word too because the taste is more than just roasted coffee. If the burnt flavor is toned down this could be a good beer.
M- Good mouthfeel, little light for my taste but is still a medium body.
D- This wasn't an enjoyable beer. The burnt coffee dominated every aspect of this beer and not in a pleasant way. Something a little more subtle is more to my liking.

Poured from a 22oz bomber into a pint glass. No dating info. It was black in color with slight carb but tons of lacing. It had a very large brown head that very, very slowly settled into a thick constant foam.
The aroma was very weak. I'm battling spring allergies so even had the wife take a sniff. We both had to really swirl the glass and then breath deep to get much. What was there was good. Cocoa and coffee mainly with some milk chocolate in the back. The taste was very disappointing. Chalky with a very bitter middle and end. I like bitter but this seemed out of place and the wrong bitter if that makes sense. Also getting a lot of watery taste as well. Normally, I'd chalk this up to a bad bottle but I tried this about 6 months ago and it tasted exactly the same. I didn't review it then because I thought it was a bad bottle but now I think that it's just the way it is. I really wanted to like this one as I love the style and it's readily accessible but really didn't enjoy. After half a bottle it really became a chore to finish.
Overall, a disappointment - see above for why. Could I possibly have had 2 bad bottles? Seems unlikely but I'm way off from other reviewers that normally I find a lot in common with. Since it's Rogue, I'll give it one more chance down the road. Unless dramatic improvement, one and done.

look: 4 | smell: 3 | taste: 2.5 | feel: 3 | overall: 3
Presentation: 650ml bottle into a large mug.
A- Deep brown/black, completely opaque in appearance. Pours with massive brown/tan head, which fades slowly to but a thin coating, leaving heavy lacing.
S- Chocolate syrup odor wafts up, and grassy hoppiness there if I bury my nose deep.
T- Starts off bland with a burnt coffee finish. I was too impatient, perhaps, and needed to let it warm. As it warms, vague hints of chocolate appear (still less prominent than expected), and the coffee finish mellows substantially. Still disappointed.
M- Medium/light....thinner than I had hoped.
D- Eh....ok. Not too heavy, but I can't imagine even a fan wanting more than this bomber worth.
Future outlook: Disappointed in this one. Doubtful that I will revisit it anytime soon.

Poured from a 650 ML bottle into a brandy snifter, this beer presented itself well. A deep dark burnt umber with a very decent mocha colored head that to some degree lingered to the end. Aroma of chocolate...period. The smell was pure chocolate and lacked the other nuances of a typically well done chocolate stout. Stir in a spoonful of dark coco into your next porter or stout and you'll get the idea. The taste was, frankly, disappointing. An unpleasant bitterness lingered after each sip. Once you get past the chocolate, you're kind of drinking a Guinness with a little more body. Whether this bitterness comes from bakers chocolate or a big shot of hops...or both, I couldn't tell. But to my palate, this stuff is unpleasant. The bitter aftertaste lasts until you brush your teeth. From previous reviews, I expected better. I'll take a Young's Double Chocolate, thank you.

A: Dark brown/Black. No lacing. Very thin head that dissipates as the beer sits.
S: Great smelling stout. Dark chocolate, cola, vanilla bean.

650ml bottle 6,0% Abv.
Served chilled and split between a snifter and a wine glass.
No Bottle date.
Appearance: Rogue Chocolate stout appears pitch black in the glass , with a strong backlight only revealing a little deep red along the edges of the glass (this stuff is pretty dark for the Abv.). A standard pour yields a massive dark tan coloured head. The head displays fantastic retention and leaves beautiful rings of lacing clinging to the glass as it slowly recedes.
Smell: Given all the great reviews, the nose is actually quite disappointing. There is a fair amount of chocolate, but it seems somewhat fake and more like chocolate flavour than actual chocolate. Other notes include: Oats, toasted malt and some creamy caramel.
Taste: As with the nose the flavour is rather disappointing. There isn't a ton of flavour and the beer comes across as somewhat watery. There is a fair amount of (fake) chocolate flavour, some roasted malt, a toasty character and a pleasant bitterness on the back end.
Mouthfeel: Blegh, this doesn't work at all, the body is thin and watery. The carbonation is okayish at a medium-high level but it is a little harsh.
Overall: Another shitty beer from Rogue, I can't see I'll be buying anything more from these guys.

I was really excited to try this beer. It came in a huge 22 oz. bottle and I got a huge 16 oz glass with it.
A: Dark black, with a great, foamy, tan head. The head lasted a bit, and it lingered on the sides of the glass as I drank it.
S: Beer had the strongest chocolate smell. Really, it smelled like a chocolate bar! I was so excited to drink it after smelling it, so I was so disappointed when...
T:...the taste was overwhelmingly bitter. It was so bitter that I couldn't taste any sweetness at all. I let it warm up a bit and ate some pizza to try and tease out some flavors, but got nothing. All I could taste was bitter, bitter, and more bitter aftertaste lingering on my tongue, so that I didn't even look with delight to the next sip. All I kept thinking was, "well, I gotta finish the beer."
M: It's smooth, like Guinness, and almost as thick and heavy as a Gunness. It wasn't heavily carbonated at all.
D: The bitter aftertaste was just too much for me. I finished the bottle only because I hate to waste beer. I've tasted great chocolate stouts, and I wouldn't reccomend this to anyone. The only reason it has a good grade at all is because it looks and smells really good.

Pitch black color with a 2 finger tan foamy head with good retention. Smells of chocolate and cocoa. The taste is chocolate, cocoa, and some burnt bitterness. Not as much sweet chocolate as the smell would suggest. More roasted malt flavor comes forward.
The mouthfeel is thinner than I expected, and there is quite a bit of carbonation. The mouthfeel is the weakest part of the beer.

Poured a midnight black with a nice creamy mocha head. Very nice lacing that lingered as I drank it down.
Smell is pure chocolate, rather heavenly, but nothing else.
Taste is overpowering chocolate and some maltiness. Way too much chocolate in this for me. I do love chocolate stouts (Youngs & Brooklyn my favorites), but this one is like drinking a chocolate malt, doesn't taste like a beer.
I split a bomber with my friend & we both could barely finish our half, not very drinkable.

bomber shared with my gf. snifter.
a - pours a deep dark brown with a thin cap of sudsy, tan foam. head calms slowly, leaving thick rings of lacing in the glass.
s - cocoa powder, sourdough bread, grassy hops.
t - cocoa powder with an herbal bitterness that totally dominates the flavor profile. has an off putting chemical aftertaste that gets really nasty as the beer warms, i'm assuming from the added flavoring.
m - full bodied with lots of carbonation. finer co2 profile.
o - meh. would be enjoyable if it weren't for the weird chemical flavors. one of the few beers i have ever drainpoured. probably won't be buying anything from rogue again.

Appearance: Pours a deep dark brown with a quite thick light brown head.
Aroma: Mild chocolate tones dominate. All other aromas are quite muted.
Taste: Lots of carbonation takes away from the chocolate(which is detectable) and any other flavors that might be present.
Mouthfeel: Unimpressive, IMO. Too much carbonation creates an unwanted, flavorless void.
Drinkability: Not at all excited about this one. Doesn't live up to the hype IMO. Won't try again.

Pours a thick ceamy head and then disapates quickly. This beer is heavily carbonated with a strong scent of chocolate and malt. Not as strong or smooth as I hoped considering Shakespear's taste. I even tried to pare with chocolate and found it very dissapointing. This beer had no substance to it and left me hanging! Hope next years batch is better!

Help more people beat cancer
On the 17 of June at 2.30pm, me and some of the other lovely ladies from the 'Work it Baby' classes, will be doing our bit to raise as much money as possible to beat cancer. I bet we all know someone who has been affected by cancer. It's coming up to three years now since I sadly lost my Nana when she lost her battle to cancer after fighting it twice already. I also sadly know other members have had family relatives and friends that have been affected too.
So let's make a difference! I personally believe between us all we can raise over £500. So join me , raise the money or dig and donate to help support us in raising as much as we can. I'm delighted to be helping this amazing cause, but also helping mums get into shape whilst running in memory for someone they've loved and lost. As the saying goes 'Together we can beat cancer'. So please help us make it happen and make a donation. With so many thanks, its truly appreciated. Loads of love, Kirsty xx P.S Gift Aid it!. If you are a UK taxpayer, please remember to tick the Gift Aid box when donating as this will increase your donation by at least 25% at no cost to you.. Thank you for visiting my Race for Life sponsorship page. Please dig deep and sponsor me online - it's quick, easy and totally secure. Events like Race for Life are vital in funding Cancer Research UK's life-saving work into preventing, diagnosing and treating cancer. By sponsoring me now you can help more people survive cancer.

Jared Sullinger was wicked sick Friday night as he scored a season high 14 points adding 11 rebounds and shooting 7 for 8 from the field before fouling out. Sully's been feeling the luck of the Irish lately as Friday's game was his third straight game in double digits and his second game in a row with a double-double.
Please, blog, may I have some more?Damian Lillard
Isaiah Thomas got the start Friday night and scored 11 points with 4 assists, a steal and three 3-pointers in 29 minutes. The move to start him actually makes logical sense, which is strange since we're talking about the Sacremende Kings here.
Please, blog, may I have some more?Spencer Hawes had 20 points, 9 rebounds, an assist, 3 steals and 5 blocks. He is averaging 13/6 over the past 2 weeks. I'm not sure how I feel about that, but his ownership is creeping up to the 50% mark.
Please, blog, may I have some more?On Saturday night, I was in a German shop which sold a variety of imports, from marzipan to steins to cuckoo clocks. As I was eyeballing the clocks on the wall, the shop keeper came up to me to chat. As my companion asked about maintenance of the clocks, he noted that like anything made in Germany, if you take good care of it, it will last a thousand years.
Please, blog, may I have some more?I've seen enough. Injury prone label be damned, Stephen Curry rises to the second tier of the point guard rankings. I've always loved the talent but that ankle injury is frightening (I drafted him in the 2nd round last year…sigh). Through 25 games this year Curry has stayed healthy and hasn't missed a start. He's also averaging 19.4 points (career high), 4.1 boards, 6.4 assists (career high), 1.6 steals, 2.6 three's (career high), 89.7% FT, and 42.2% FG (career low). Yeah that's right, 19.4 points on a career low FG… and it's not even close to his second lowest percent of 46.2% his rookie season. The guy is a stud and COULD be better if his FG% rises some. Did I also mention his 3P% is a career low 41.7%? These percentages will keep rising, especially since Klay Thompson has regained some of his shooting touch. If you have Curry, you're probably sitting in a good place because of the draft value you got for him.
Please, blog, may I have some more?With Kyle Lowry and Andrea Bargnani out of the line-up due to injury concerns, Jose Calderon started for the Raptors and finished with a triple double (18 points, 10 rebounds, 14 assists), plus a block and a steal. Eventually, Lowry and Bargnani will come back and there will likely be no place left for Calderon besides the bench, but for me, Jose will always have some value.
Please, blog, may I have some more?Admit it, your palms were getting sweaty when you saw Jeremy Lin come off the bench the other day. He had 7 or fewer points in the prior 5 games. You felt a little ill. "I need some ginger ale," you tried to say, but your voice was raspy.
Please, blog, may I have some more?With a dazzling 17 points, 13 rebounds, 7 assists, 1 steal and 1 block, Nicolas Batum showed why he is the darling of the fantasy community. He also seems to be out of his recent "funk," averaging 19 1/2 points, 10 boards and 1 1/2 blocks in the past 2 games.
Please, blog, may I have some more?Kris Humphries (3/4/0 with 2 blocks) fouled Kevin Garnett (16/10/1) somewhat hard (his flopping made it look worse than it was). Rajon Rondo (6/1/3 with 2 steals) took exception to the contact, and since NBA players are mature, emotionally well-adjusted individuals, a brawl ensued, resulting in the ejection of Humpy and Rondo.
Please, blog, may I have some more?Now that the rust is coming off the season (except for you Steve Nash), we'll be splitting the Wednesday posts into morning (for recaps) and afternoon (for the tiers). Check out the previous Centers, Forwards, and Guards tiers. This week we'll jump right into the guards.
Please, blog, may I have some more?

TAKE A HIKE: In Toronto, Rosie DiManno wrote under the header, "Greediness of Maple Leafs franchise knows no bounds." While many fans will object to the team's new ticket pricing, "the disgruntlement will not affect sales one iota." The Leafs "plan to hike prices on a tiered basis" for the '13-14 season with ticket prices "jacked up for visits by 'premium'" teams. DiManno: "The franchise operates in an environment that defies real world verisimilitude" (TORONTO STAR, 8/22).
COME ON BACK: On Long Island, Cody Derespina noted the Yankees want to reward fans who held tickets to Thursday's game against the Blue Jays, which had a 3.5-hour rain delay before the first pitch. Anyone with a valid Aug. 22 ticket, "regardless of whether they attended the game or not, can use it to redeem a free Grandstand Level or Terrace Level ticket at the Stadium" for any game during their Sept. 2-4 series with the White Sox. Fans can also use the ticket as a 50% off coupon to "any other non-suite portion of the park during the same series" (NEWSDAY.com, 8/22).
FAILING GRADE: In Sacramento, Tom Couzens noted the A's have "been one of the best teams" in the AL, and are on pace to reach the playoffs. However, he asked, "Where are all their fans?" Only 11,112 showed up at O.co Coliseum on Monday night, the "24th time this season the A's have drawn fewer than 20,000 fans." The A's average attendance of 22,990 entering Tuesday night was "25th in the major leagues" (SACBEE.com, 8/21).

The 2008 Tablas Creek Vineyard Picpoul Blanc> (also known as Piquepoul or Piquepoul Blanc in France) is Tablas Creek's third bottling of this traditional Southern Rhone varietal, used in Châteauneuf du Pape as a blending component, and best known from the crisp light green wines of the Pinet Region in the Coteaux de Languedoc. Literally translating to "lip stinger", in France the grape is known for its bright acidity, its minerality, and a clean lemony flavor. We have found that in California, it maintains its bright acidity, but also develops an appealing tropical lushness.
Picpoul Blanc was the first supplementary varietal we brought into the country after the initial eight varietals. It went into quarantine in 1996, and was released in 1998. The first vines went into the ground in 2000. We are so excited about the varietal that in the winter of 2005–2006 we tripled our planted acreage (from 1 to 3 acres).
Our Picpoul grapes were grown on our 120-acre certified organic estate vineyard.
The 2008 vintage was our second consecutive drought year, with yields further reduced by spring frosts. Berries and clusters were small, leading to excellent concentration. Ripening over the summer was gradual and harvest about a week later than normal. Crop sizes were similar to 2007 and about 20% lower than usual. The low yields and gradual ripening resulted in wines with good intensity, lower than normal alcohols and an appealing gentle minerality. Picpoul Blanc was harvested between September 22nd and October 10th.
The Picpoul grapes were whole cluster pressed, and fermented using native yeasts in stainless steel to maintain its freshness. It completed malolactic fermentation in tank, and was bottled in May 2009.
The 2008 Picpoul Blanc shows inviting citrus and tropical fruit aromas (pineapple and mango). Light- to medium-bodied, with a creamy lushness surprising for Picpoul, and a long piña colada finish.
