When The Beatles disbanded in 1970, we had a new top band in the world. This group concisted of four members, John Fogerty (lead guitar, lead vocals, harmonica) his elder brother Tom Fogerty (R.I.P.) on rhythm guitar and backing vocals, Stu Cook (bass, backing vocals) and Doug "Cosmo" Clifford (drums, percussion). They are my favorite band next to The Beatles and Queen and have inspired me to play music). They most well-known songs have to be "Have You Ever Seen the Rain?", "Fortunate Son", "Proud Mary", "Bad Moon Rising", "Down on the Corner" and "Susie Q" to mention some. The group is probably the real inventor of Swamp Rock though the band are from El Cerrito, California.
Top 10 Creedence songs:
10) Born to Move
9) Commotion
8) Proud Mary
7) Born on the Bayou
6) Fortunate Son
5) Someday Never Comes
4) Long As I Can See the Light
3) Travelin' Band

Beatles Bassist, seriously?
No band has ever had so many hits in such a short period of time – except maybe the Beatles.
They were simply unbelievable.
You left out "Green River" "Look Out My Back Door"
(personally not crazy about "Born to Move" or "Wrote a Song for Everyone")
I take it for granted that everyone's familiar with their songs – but your post suggests otherwise.
But yes, I agree, for those not familiar with CCR, get thee to iTunes asap!

meanmistermustard, you're right; yikes!
Got to check 'em out, you won't regret it.
"Proud Mary" was their biggest hit.
(P.S. Beatles Bassist, it's "I Heard It Through the Grapevine" not "window" – an understandable lapse for a Beatle fan)
Beatles Bassist, check out this week's Rolling Stone Magazine, page 24:
"John Fogerty …recording new versions of CCR classics with an all-star cast including Foo Fighters, Bob Seger and My Morning Jacket + …. .The remakes will be released this fall on Fogerty's 18th disc, Wrote a Song for Everyone."

They're up there with the Stones and the Kinks, even higher than the Kinks, LOTS of people's favourite songs.
Since I love the Beatles for being so diverse I always thought CCR was sounding way too similar on most of their songs.
Fogerty has an incredible voice and his songs are very hard to sing (damn the man!), at least in the original keys, but it's always more or less the same.
Many great classic songs and melodies, no question.
I especially like Looking out my backdoor and I put a spell on you.

I'm always reminded of that scene from the Big Lebowski when the Dude gets his Creedence tapes back, tapping the offbeats on the car roof to Looking Out My Backdoor.

Personally, I think Green River, Cosmo's Factory and Pendulum are their best studio albums and also deserves a spot in the 100 greatest albums of all time. Pendulum however is more dominated by organ than guitar, and a couple saxophone numbers included. Especially notably on the interlude to "Born to Move" (it builds up during Stu's amazing bass solo). Pendulum is like their "Rubber Soul".

- " Worst. Breakfast. Ever. Very small toasts, coffee that tastes like the water that cleaned the filter and cornflakes stuffed with sugar. Also, we arrived during the night and the guy at the reception seemed lost. That same guy was listening loud music in front of our dorm at 1 am. Finally, the bathrooms need to be cleaned more and are in need of a repair. "

Interior of the hostel is very cool and stylish. Good for Europeans - sockets in rooms are appropriate for euro-standart chargers. Definitely good place to stay at. "

Top 3 stupid things to do on a cruise
A cruise vacation can be a great way to travel. Once on the ship, you're in a closed environment that is protected from many of the potential dangers that await those traveling some other way. But while cruise lines say things like "Do whatever you want to, it's your cruise", or "You are free to do...whatever!" there are limits. While there are a lot of stupid things to do on a cruise, here's the top three:
1. Get in a big argument with somebody and call them names. If you happen to have a short fuse or are really impatient, check that at the gangway. Once you are on board the ship how you behave can have a real impact on the experience. You'll hear the captain referred to as the "master of the vessel" and with good reason. He has the authority to throw you off the ship at the next port with no refund and no way to get back home except on your own if you cause trouble. Not long ago, a drunken brawl on Carnival Dream resulted in 10 guests waving good bye to a ship that left them behind.
2. Practice your swan dive over the side of the ship. This will most likely kill you and is something to avoid. You really have to try to make this happen too. Falling off the ship is a lot like falling off a 10-story building; your odds of survival are not good. If the impact of hitting the water doesn't kill you, strong currents created by the ship's movement will.
3. Stock up on drugs while ashore. If you want to buy drugs ashore you can on pretty much any Caribbean island. Just look for the cool guy with the Bob Marley look and you'll get hooked up fast. Odds are you can get them back on the ship pretty easy too. They don't strip-search embarking passengers. Where you will run into problems is back home when it's time to get off the ship. Drug sniffing dogs that check luggage coming off the ship will find your "souvenirs" and you will go to jail.
If you follow the golden rule of cruise ship conduct "Don't do anything that would require talking to security or having your body identified" you should be OK.

Low tech Razor (Gillette 3 Sensor) Help
Hey guys... I don't know much about razors... Could use the slickdeals community's help! Someone asked me to buy them a lot of Sensor 3 cartridges... (http://www.amazon.com/Gillette-Se...0001LQGEM/) Is this the same product? Gillette Sensor 3, Disposable Razor, Sensitive Shave 8 ea (http://www.drugstore.c I dont understand why the cartridges are so much more expensive than the disposables if they are the same product... almost twice as much... Any clue guys? There is also this one too... http://www.drugstore.c Are the disposables inferior products to the cartridges? Thank you in advance!!! Last edited by KiwiNuked; 09-02-2012 at 07:06 AM..

I LOVE STARBUCKS, AT&T and Best Buy. |
In my PERSONAL opinion, I've found the disposable razors to be a lower quality than the cartridges. I generally use the cartridges, but I bought some of the disposables on a trip once when I forgot my razor & I hated them - I got crazy amounts of razor burn from them.
I've been interested in trying these guys [dollarshaveclub.com] but have not heard feedback from anyone who's used them. Anyone here ever try them out? The commercial on their website is fun to watch, anyway! Last edited by Jeffbx; 09-04-2012 at 07:27 AM.. |
IDK if they are the exact same, usually the only difference between brands and lines like that are handle design. So if your not sure maybe try and look at some locally or buy a small pack to see. Remember the manufactures make money from the blades not the rest. A lot of counterfeit blades do exist as well.
Vague questions receive vague answers . . . . . .
Sometimes cartridges are indeed more expensive than the disposable version of the same thing. Why? Who knows. Usually just a marketing/sales thing, I would think. I've seen a number of shaving enthusiasts say the blades are the same and complain about it if for no other reason than that it sends more plastic to the landfill.

When someone says they shave with DE because even though it takes three times as long they enjoy the time, that's a sign you're dealing with a Shaving Enthusiast. (tm) |
There are a lot of shaving snobs out there but many people just want a good, cheap shave. 100 pack of blades for $9 is great. Takes me 8-10 minutes to shave with a DE resulting in a very smooth shave without cutting myself. That's really not too bad considering I started in August. |
Does this make me a shaving snob? It's a pic of my shaving stand that I built to hold my razor
I actually left a Braun electric to go to DE Shaving. I do find the change refreshing. Used an electric for over 20 years. I find the differing combinations of soaps, brushes, razors, and blades makes the shaving experience sort of fun. I now have about 6 different soaps, maybe 8 different blades, 4 brushes, and 6 razors. The razor on the right was my first foray into DE shaving. It's an Edwin Jagger razor that was on sale for < $25 (Thanks SD). The others are all "birth year" razors that are over 40 (something) years old. However, if you are constantly in a hurry, DE shaving is probably not for you. |

NEW YORK – Like many men, Martin Greenfield ordered a new suit when his life was about to change: He placed his order just after he was liberated from a concentration camp.
In 1945, he left Buchenwald and arrived at a German warehouse, where Allied soldiers let Greenfield pilfer four cuts of English wool. The freed captive carried the fabric to a Prague tailor, who made a suit for Greenfield from two of the cuts, with the other two as payment.
Two years later, an uncle helped Greenfield cross the Atlantic, and a fellow Czech immigrant guided him to a job as a floor boy in a Brooklyn garment factory. Within a few years, Greenfield became a tailor, assigned to the factorys famous clients – actors, athletes, politicians. By the 1970s, he amassed enough skill and capital to buy the factory. And today, at 84, among the tens of thousands of men he has dressed, Greenfield can count three presidents, a vice president, Cabinet secretaries and countless senators and representatives.
Through the decades, Greenfield constructed made-to-measure suits that customers ordered at special sales at Brooks Brothers and Neiman Marcus stores nationwide. Such trunk shows brought him often to the capital of the country that saved his life, where he suited up many of the men who run it.
There appears to be a fourth president among his clients. In February 2011 and then again one year later, Greenfield and his two sons – now his business partners – made trips to 1600 Pennsylvania Ave. The White House logs reveal that the Greenfields visited a personal aide in the official residence. The tailor doesnt talk about any well-known client, until the client talks about him first.
Greenfields bespoke suits fit the bill for White House wear. They can range from $1,800 to $2,700, depending on fabric and features. The tailor works simply, as he always has and in a way that few competitors still do, showing up six days a week in a union shop that employs more than 100. The plant has stayed open in a rough neighborhood during bleak decades. Greenfields factory has been burglarized 11 times.
His first sewing job
At Auschwitz, the prisoners were sorted by gender, and Martins 5-year-old brother, who had been hanging on him like I was a hero, went with his father. His younger sister was pulled away from his mother and other sister and sent in another direction because she had blond hair and blue eyes. When the registrars asked if anyone knew a trade, his father offered up Martin as a skilled mechanic.
The teenage boy seethed. The father and son had been at odds for days. His father had just traveled to retrieve Martin from Budapest, where he had been sent to live with relatives.
Father and son returned home to their remote, idyllic town of Pavlovo. Once reunited with his family, Martin could finally plan his bar mitzvah, which was deferred throughout his exile in Budapest. But two days after his return, the Nazis knocked on the familys door, ordered them to pack up and hustled them off to Auschwitz.
As a boy in the camp, Greenfield was given the chore of washing the Auschwitz guards clothes by hand. I didnt know how to wash shirts – we had a maid. And I ripped his collar, he recalled. The shirts owner was incensed. First he whipped me, then he gave me the shirt, throwing it at the boy.
Greenfield learned to sew, and tailored the discarded shirts collar to fit his own neck. Then he dared to wear the shirt under his striped uniform, and noticed the reactions from guards and prisoners alike. They thought I was somebody, he said, noting that the new outfit allowed him into barracks and hospital hallways where he could sneak food to the famished. I ripped a couple of others then. I was smart enough to do that. Then I had already a wardrobe!
For more than three decades, Gen. Colin Powell bought his clothes from a PX. A dozen years ago, at a cousins party in the Hamptons, Powell was approached by an assertive and friendly gentleman who said he had dressed generals before and would dress him, too.
Powell was preparing to be a civilian in political life, and he showed up for his Greenfield appointment in Brooklyns Bushwick neighborhood. I got out of the car and looked at this factory and thought I was somewhere back in the 19th century, Powell said of the four-story plant, which stands in what had been a crime-infested part of town.
Powell learned how clothing constructed just for him made him look and feel different. Greenfield came to the Powell residence to meet his wife, Alma, and go over more swatches. The tailor routinely second-guessed the couples choices. He explained how tie colors shouldnt fight the camera, in Greenfields terms.
Now for a guy who wore black ties for 35 years, this was all extremely revealing, Powell recalled. Over the years, this loyal customer referred others to Greenfield, warning his reluctant deputy at the State Department, Richard Armitage, that once he got his wide frame fitted in a just-for-him suit, he wouldnt buy just one. Donald Rumsfeld became a client. The fitting sessions are always discreet, intimate, with shared confidences. Martin became one of my mentors, Powell said.
Shirts on his back
In January 1945, Greenfield and the other prisoners could hear gunfire outside the camp. The German guards rounded up the thousands of prisoners and marched them out of the camp.
A Gestapo agent made Greenfield carry his pack. Greenfield managed to snoop through it, injesting some vitamins and discarding the ammunition. There was some salami and bread, which he distributed to other prisoners.
The guard was livid and searched for the boy who swiped his supplies. The boy had made friends, however, who hid him inside a snowdrift. Greenfield survived, in part, because he was wearing extra thermal layers: the three Gestapo shirts he had torn.
Bill Clinton was the first president to welcome Greenfield inside the White House and to be personally measured by him.
Greenfields clientele is bipartisan. He once assembled a three-piece suit for President Gerald Ford, and Secret Service agents stood over him while he fashioned a bulletproof version of the vest. Greenfield had measured Sen. Bob Dole, R-Kan. for suits and compensated for Doles war-wound-withered arm and sloping shoulder.
After a forced march, the surviving prisoners boarded a train headed south. They arrived in Buchenwald, and with its big flag and big gate, the camp seemed grander than those in Poland.
Inside, many of the tens of thousands of prisoners proved savvy and scheming. Greenfield was assigned a job in the munitions factory. At night, the barracks was filled with whispered instructions to bring back parts of weapons. A Russian officer with no legs was masterminding an uprising.
Before the inside job could come together, gunfire erupted outside the gate. It was April 1945. Americans were storming the camp. Emaciated and tired, Greenfield dodged bullets and the falling, burning pieces of barracks. He watched as Gestapo officers grabbed prisoners, killed them and donned their uniforms to masquerade as innocents.
Americans overtook the camp and in the aftermath, Greenfield rested at a dig site where Nazis had buried stolen valuables – jewelry, diamonds, precious metals. American soldiers hacked at the dirt with shovels, and one of them tossed to Greenfield a Schaffhausen watch.
Inside the camp, the boy confronted a young rabbi, a U.S. Army chaplain: Where was God? he asked; the rabbi could not answer.
Before he left Buchenwald, the boy cheered the arrival of Gen. Dwight Eisenhower, who ordered Germans from the town to be ushered into the camp to see for themselves the stacks of corpses and the living skeletons. One boy, two years younger than Greenfield, watched alongside him and seemed the skinniest kid that ever survived, he recalled; he was Elie Wiesel.
Sweeping floors
At 19, after failing to find his parents and siblings, Greenfield reached the United States on a ship called the Ernie Pyle.
At the factory, Greenfield excelled, and his bosses assigned him the companys most important customer – Eisenhower. Years after their handshake in Buchenwald, Greenfield was making clothes for the general, who was shedding his uniform for the outfits of a statesman.
Greenfield kept in touch with many customers. Robert Strauss, the Democratic Party chairman, became an intimate, and when President Ronald Reagan broke ground on the U.S. Holocaust Museum, Strauss ordered a limo to ferry the Greenfields around town. From his front-row seat, Greenfield saw a familiar face onstage – the rabbi whom he had met in Buchenwald. After the ceremony, Greenfield approached Rabbi Hershel Schaecter, who said he had never forgotten Greenfield or his unanswerable question. The two men spent decades of friendship discussing it.
Life interrupted
Fawning over Arlene, his wife of 56 years, in the company of sons Jay and Tod and all the grandchildren, the patriarch was dressed colorfully as ever, in a purple-and-white seersucker suit. Under his vest, he wore braces, and always his breast pocket burst with a silk square.
Arlene Greenfield had invited a few of her husbands clients to join them for a special event: Martin Greenfields long-postponed bar mitzvah.
The service was nearly 70 years late, but his whole family was there.

A: Ruby in colour with hues of red. Pours a 1/4 inch head that quickly collapses to a thin film. Clear with no particles.
S: Holy maple. There are hints of maltyness, bread and lots of maple. Sort of pancakes or french toast.
T: A lot more malt character coming through. Bread/biscuit, grain, caramel and of course some lighter maple then in the smell. Some bitterness balances well the sweet flavours of the beer.
M: Well carbonated, clean palate. Not too sweet that it stays in the back. Clean dry finish.
O: Highly impressed with this beer as there is a great deal of balance with the grain, bitterness and sweetness. Not what you'd expect with the word "maple" in it.

Tried a sampled at Calgary Beerfest, everyone really liked it, so had to track down a bottle.
Pours a nice, shiny brown color with a tan colored head. Foam is thick and dense, shrinks down to a short floating cap, chunky lace.
The smell is what catches you right off the top, sweet, fresh maple syrup. No other aromas really coming through, but the maple is great.
Taste has more of the sweet maple syrup. At first you might expect it to be overly sweet, but there is very nice balance between the malt base, hop bitterness, and the sugar sweetness.
There is a complex layer of flavors, especially when it starts to warm up. Maple, brown sugar, caramel. Sweet to start, hop bitterness at the end balance everything out.
The body is on the lighter side, which helps it from becoming too sticky or cloying. Carbonation level works for the beer/style.
Would make a good after dinner drink, or with a dessert. A good one for friends who don't like "beer" and whose only experience is with main streem lagers.
This stays on my list of beers to look out for, buy it when you see it.

Bottle: Poured a medium amber color ale with a large foamy head with average retention and some lacing. Aroma consists of light maple syrup with a nice medium caramel malt base. Taste is a nice enough mix between some maple notes with balanced sweetness and a standard caramel malt backbone. Body is about average with OK carbonation. Nothing necessarily special about this one but still better then most maple based beers out there.

A- Pours with a syrupy tan colored head that is dense, but not super thick....settles to a bubbling yet puffy looking film. The color of the brew is a clear bronze, with reddish hues. The carbonation appears to be fine, with lots of small columns rising to the top. Lacing is pretty much non existent unfortunately....still a better than average looking beer.
S- Fresh maple syrup, and lots of it. It literally smells like how maple syrup smells after soaking into warm pancakes. I'm guessing that there is some malt aroma mixed in here and perhaps some hops but it's really hard to detect....perfect aroma for what Garrison is going for here!
T- More of the same here, but more balanced and more complex. There are flavors of maple, of course, but also malt, brown sugar, and caramel/toffee. It's sweet, but then towards the finish, bittering hops completely balance out the flavors, with a 360 degree spin, similar to an american amber ale, imo. Great flavors and great changes in flavors too!
M- The body is maybe a little lighter than I'd like it to be considering the richness of the beer itself. Carbonation is fine, just how it should be I think, as the character of the brew really doesn't need to work hard to make itself known on the palate.
D- Really great dessert beer, and I could handle probably a couple of bottles/pints before being saturated with satisfaction. On it's own, without food, one bottle would suffice...I really like what the brewery has done here and look forward to getting more of this before it's gone and have to wait another year.

I was hoping for big things from this. A deep red with mahogany hues had a light looking head sitting on top. Without maple, would be classified as red/amber ale. The sell is an over-abundance of sweet maple candies, brown sugar and strong cinnamon. The taste is unfortunately near similar. The taste outs an odd taste in the mouth. I am a little disappointed with this Garrison offering. Most of their products are good but this was a miss.

Appearance. Pours a clear, deep red-amber with two fingers of thick and sticky looking, off white head. Lasts a while and leaves some nice lacing.
Smell. Maple!! Lots of sweet maple. Some sweet caramel and maybe a hint of herby hops.
Taste. Sweet caramel and woody maple. Sweetness seems just right. Some grassy hops in the end.
Mouthfeel. Medium body, stronger than medium, super-smooth carbonation.
Overall. Good maple beer. Maybe a little too much maple, but what the hell ...I'm Canadian.

A - a syrupy brown, tall tan head dissipated slowly
S - super sweet maple and brown sugar dominate, very subtle hop freshness
T - the maple is there, but it is quickly taken over by soapy and metallic notes, still sugary sweet, oily hop note, but the flavour is a bit of a turn from the nose
M - medium carbonation, sticky mouth coating with a slight chemical oily hint
O - started off with a bang but ended on a little down note, its a good enough brew, but it could be a case of the feature ingredient taking away from the fact that it is a beer

6.3% according to the label. By far the best maple beer I've ever had. Lovely copper with a nice white head. Definite maple syrup scent. Maple sugar candies, caramel and brown sugar in the nose. Strong maple syrup flavour with a noticeable sourness from the hops. That said the maple flavour itself is much sweeter than other maple beers and the hops work with it, not against it like in so many other maple beers of head. I think this could do with a bit less carbonation, but otherwise a great brew.

A - Pours a nice caramel colour, thin layer of beige soapy head with little retention, no real lacing, very little visible body carbonation.
S - Super sweet with the maple taking a strong presence. Literally, its tough to detect anything other than maple syrop.
T - Quite different from the nose, some bitter earthy hops come off the top and are almost a bit sour rather than bitter. The maple flavour does linger on the tongue alongside some caramel and a bit of coffee.
M - This one is definitely in need of a carbonation lift as it comes across way too thin and watery for my liking.
O - Overall, a unique maple ale though not the best Canadian made maple ale. Worth a try but don't get your hopes up.

500ml bottle, 6.3% ABV. Can't say I'm familiar with the concept of a "Sugar Moon".
This beer pours a clear, dark golden amber hue, with two fingers of thin foamy pale beige head, which shows decent retention, eventually leaving a low rise of paint splotch lace around the glass. Wow, this smells good - even from a fair distance away - fragrant, not overly sweet maple syrup veritable. Underneath that bit of Canadian manna, I also get a bit of understandably overlooked biscuity grain and bitter weedy hops. The taste is more subdued on the guest ingredient front - the maple falling back to a supporting position, mostly through its less obvious earthy, woody essence, letting the sourdough breadiness and nutty, oily bitterness of the base beer edge back to center stage. The carbonation is on the low side, the body medium weight, and decently smooth. It finishes with an echo of the sweet malt and maple syrup, the focus is more of a dry floral, nutty nature.
Kudos to Garrison for making this smell at first contact like a Timmie's Maple Cream doughnut, and following up with a nice complementary balanced amber ale. As I've said before, Maple influenced ales are Canada's claim to a new beer style.

Poured a dark amber ale in the glass. 2 finger tan cap, fair lace.
Aroma is nice Not too overstated but the maple is present but compliments the malts -. like maple cereal.
Big malt spine, moderate maple flavor mixes with the herbal-woodiness of the Spalter hops. Long wet finish, a tad sweet but not offensive.
One of the better put together maple beers I've had, innovative use of Spalters.

From: Premier Wine & Spirits
A: Clear rugby red body with three fingers of off white head. Decent retention which dissipates into a thin ring ans leaves no lacing.
S: You can smell maple from three feet away - it's that strong. Besides that, some breadiness gives it a fuller body
T: I find the taste of maple to be weaker than the aroma, but still quite evident. Some bready characters in there and low bitterness. I feel it could use some more flavours
M: Medium-light bodied with medium carbonation. Very sticky maple aftertaste and lasts for a long time. No alcohol notes.
D: Not bad, but I think it would be better with maple added into another style of beer rather than the style revolving around it. The maple gets boring, but for what it is, it's not bad.

500ml bottle poured into pint glass june3 2010
A clear reddish amber with a crap load of bubbles of all sizes and speeds feeding a light tan head that has pretty good retention but leaves no lace
S the maple is pretty strong and I pick up on a little caramel
T not too sweet and the maple mellows out a bit, its a little nutty and has a decent amount of malt to go along with a little rye bread
M big carbonation gives it a creamy feel and it's a little sticky
D I wouldn't say 6.3%alc is overly strong but without reading the label I would never had guessed it was that strong. I would have given it 4.5 but I couldn't see myself drinking these back too back, one works quite well though
this is a straight across the board good beer, not lacking in any areas, worth trying without doubt if you get the chance
thanks to Long813 for sending this one my way

Pours a clear mahogany red with one finger of whispy off white head that quickly dissipates leaving only dots of lace.
Sweet and sticky maple syrup, graham cracker, bready malts, and a touch of grassy hops make up the nose. Sweet and very inviting; like maple cookies in liquid form.
It almost seems contradictory, but the syrupy notes of maple are quite clean and present from start to finish. Light grassy hops come in the middle, evening out the sweetness. As the hops begin to fall off, notes of graham cracker come in, imparting a semi-chewy finish.
The mouthfeel is medium bodied and a bit filmy at times. It could use a bit of bulking up, but the balance of it all makes up for it.
Another solid seasonal from Garrison. The sweetness of the maple is perfectly worked making it easily quaffable rather than harshly cloying. I'd say this one is definitely worth a try, especially if you're in the area.

500ml bottle courtesy of mrmanning. Pours a cloudy amber body with one finger of beige/tan head and a couple dots of lacing on the shaker. Smell and taste are fusel alcohol, maple syrup, sugar, butterscotch, sweet and sour sauce, metal, and a strong malt astringency with a boozy, SOUR aftertaste. Absolutely disgusting! The sourness worsens as the beer warms, resembling the leftover taste that one would have after vomiting hard liquor. Repulsive beyond description. Lenny, I appreciate your generosity, and obviously we were hoping for a winner, but Garrison has really fumbled this one. Drain pour = F

500 ml bottle from private order- Murky brown, pours a billowing off white cap. Nose of burnt sugar, earthy malts, odd... wet leaves, aluminum pretty much take over. Somewhat sweet maple and caramel malts up front, but that is taken over by an offputting sour flavour followed by a metallic twang that does not go away. Medium body, slightly creamy. Unappealing metallic finish with sour maple. I don't like this at all.

another bottle from Viggo. thanks eric!
500ml bottle. sampled sept 6/09.
pours deep reddish orange with a small dense tan head. the head seems to last forever and leaves some spotty lace.
aroma is insanely mapley. even from a couple of feet away it is all i can smell. maple syrup on a stack of pancakes. pecan and almond character too. white bread. bit of cracker. alcohol.
taste is good. again, lots of maple syrup but without being overly sweet. bit of pecan, but less nutty than in the aroma. pancakes. white bread. bit of smoke. earthy medium-low bitterness level.
mouthfeel is good. medium body. just over medium carbonation level.
drinkability is good. restrained sweetness and the bit of nutty character keeps it interesting and balanced and holds everything together well. one of the nicest maple beers i've had, and although i'm not generally a huge fan this one was quite good.

When he founded The Capital Times in 1917, William T. Evjue wanted to create a publication that would offset the vicious campaign that the Wisconsin State Journal and other conservative publications were then waging against U.S. Sen. Robert M. La Follette and other dissenters against the madness of World War I, war profiteering and other forms of corporate corruption.
Evjue was furious with the State Journal for attacking the most courageous man in the Senate, and he was equally furious with the morning newspaper's attacks on his favorite periodical: La Follette's Magazine. The magazine, which was founded in 1909 and would eventually be renamed The Progressive, was despised by the conservative daily newspapers of the time.
The State Journal condemned La Follette's Magazine for explaining that "this war is the creation of the rich" and suggested that, because of the magazine's challenge to the war profiteers, "America is in greater danger today" than at any time since its founding.
Evjue took a different view. He hailed La Follette's Magazine as a crusading voice for economic and social justice and for peace. And he created a daily newspaper that would echo those themes.
The Capital Times and The Progressive have stood together ever since, often in lonely opposition to the madness of new wars, new corporations and new forms of profiteering. We have differed at times on particulars, but never on principles.
As The Progressive celebrates its 95th anniversary today, we are struck by the fact that the magazine is still waging what La Follette referred to as "the old fight" against crony capitalism and imperial war-making. The cover art may be different, but the message is as passionate, and as true, as ever. And it is resonating, as circulation rises and attention to this fine magazine grows in a time when so much of the media offer only tepid and inconsequential coverage of the fiasco that is George W. Bush's presidency.
There will be much festivity tonight as Molly Ivins, Barbara Ehrenreich, Howard Zinn, musician Steve Earle and poet Martin Espada appear at the Orpheum Theatre as part of a gala celebration of the anniversary. But, typically, there will also be thoughtful discourse throughout the day, with editor Matt Rothschild and his able staff hosting a conference at the Concourse Hotel under the banner of "A Progressive Tomorrow."
Today, in the midst of the long night of Bush and Cheneyism, we can only imagine a progressive tomorrow. But we look forward to celebrating The Progressive's 100th anniversary in the sunlight of a new age of American enlightenment and radical advance. And when that day comes, as it surely shall, it will be right to say that The Progressive showed the way out of the darkness.

Wording on a deed, or the legal instrument used in real estate to prove ownership, establishes the legal rights each owner has to the property. Owners who take title to, or receive ownership interest in, a piece of real estate as tenants in common each have an individual share in the property that will pass on to heirs if an owner dies. Owners who take title as joint tenants have a right of survivorship, meaning each tenant's interest passes to the other tenants upon death. A new deed must be filed to change the ownership type.
Talk to the other tenants in common. All the owners must agree to change the type of ownership each person has in the property.
Get your original deed. Go to the county recorder's office where the property is located and get a copy of the deed if you do not have one. The current deed contains your legal description, the measurements of your property set out in words.
Obtain a new survey and legal description if the property has changed. Any loss or gain of land alters the legal description. Hire a licensed surveyor in your area. Get fee quotes in writing from the surveyor. The cost of a survey depends on the area, type and value of the property. Surveyors generally charge an additional fee to make a new legal description.
Prepare a new deed. Use the correct legal description. Go to your local legal print shop to obtain a blank deed form or hire a real estate attorney to prepare the deed for you.
Have all tenants in common sign the deed. The deed must be acknowledged by a notary public who is authorized to notarize deeds in your area. Check with the county's recorder's office to determine notary qualifications for deeds and the proper deed wording. The grantors, or givers, of the deed should have a phrase such as "as tenants in common" after their names. The grantees, or recipients of the deed, should have a phrase such as "as joint tenants" or "as joint tenants with right of survivorship" after their names.
File the deed in the county recorder's office. File fees vary by area. Taxes are charged in some counties if consideration, or money paid, is shown on the deed. The ownership type will become joint tenants once the new deed is filed.

I've wondered if folks still use $1,000,000 as the retirement yardstick that I used when I was in my 30's. One million bucks seemed like a fantasy to me back then. What about to folks these days. Is $1,000,000 still the magic number to be able to retire? At least one insurance company actually took a survey. Take a look at this graphic:
As you know I firmly believe that regular folks can retire with much less than that, and there really is no hard and fast "number". Obviously the more an investor has, the better off they will be, but it really does not come down to a number. A big secret is MONEY MANAGEMENT.
The Team Alpha (read the year end update here) portfolio is just one of many different portfolio strategies that individual investors can use for their retirement, or their retirement plans. Income seeking investors can retire if the income they have coming in exceeds their expenses.
It is that simple folks.
Our Team Alpha portfolio now consists of McDonald's (MCD), Exxon Mobil (XOM), Johnson & Johnson (JNJ), AT&T (T), General Electric (GE), BlackRock Kelso Capital (BKCC), KKR Financial (KFN), Procter & Gamble (PG), CSX Corp. (CSX), Realty Income (O), Coca-Cola (KO), Linn Co, LLC (LNCO), Wal-Mart (WMT), Cisco (CSCO), Bristol-Myers Squibb (BMY), Healthcare Select Sector SPDR (XLV), General Dynamics (GD), and iShares S&P U.S. Preferred Stock Index Fund (PFF).
The dividend yield of all stocks right now, if purchased today with weighting that we currently have, is roughly 3.95%-4.00%. For every $100k invested, income derived from these investments would be roughly $4,000 in 2013 without any dividend changes. (Based on the Team's purchase prices, our yield is currently 4.63%)
The power of re-investing those dividends cannot be understated either. If an investor does not require the income, re-investing all dividends will grow the portfolio value exponentially. I suggest that every investor consider that as part of the dividend income investing strategy, if your own circumstances allow it.
A $1,000,000 fully invested portfolio would reap about $40,000 in 2013. You tell me; can you retire on that?
Digging Deeper Into The Facts Of The Matter
My readers know that I am a big fan of drawing down principal to supplement a better retirement. While it is true that at some point an investor might run out of money, it would not be for quite some time depending upon the amount withdrawn. I do not subscribe to the 4% rule, nor am I a fan of leaving my nest egg to others after I am gone. I will give while I am living, and hopefully spend every last dime (taking my wife into consideration of course).
A $1,000,000 portfolio that earns 4% from dividends and has principal withdrawn at an additional rate of 3% (making it a 7% annual withdrawal) has over a 75% chance (given market fluctuations) of lasting for more than 30 years.
The simple math would be: $1,000,000 divided by $30,000= 33+years.
By investing in a dividend income portfolio that produces 4% per year, an investor can have a yearly income of $70,000. The risks are if the market collapses, and there is no time to recoup. It has always been that way, and that is the key risk of investing in the stock market of course.
Taking it one step further, a retired couple both receiving the median amount of Social Security, would have roughly $30,000 per year coming in from that benefit as well. Now we have $1,000,000 invested and a yearly "income" of about $100,000. Not too shabby I would say. The catch is how much is spent.
This simple chart says it all. The income is greater than the expenses, and therefore the "wealth" can last virtually forever. Whatever an individuals income is, if the expenses are always lower, they can retire in the morning.
Save, Save, Save, and Save Some More
The other "secret" to a fruitful retirement is SAVINGS. The more you save, the more you will have, and the more you have the more you can spend. Ergo; more fun during the golden years.
Since I believe that anyone can retire based on the "spend less than you make" strategy, it seems like the vast majority of Americans feel that they do not have to save anything! Take a look at this chart:
According to this, nearly 80% of all Americans had less than $100,000 saved as of 2010.
In this report (I think everyone should read this report by the way), it is noted;
CLUELESS ABOUT SAVINGS GOALS: Many workers continue to be unaware of how much they need to save for retirement. Less than half of workers (46 percent) report they and/or their spouse have tried to calculate how much money they will need to have saved for a comfortable retirement by the time they retire (Fig. 23, pg. 22)."
Saving money does not have to be hard. Just begin when you're young and keep saving for as long as you work and are earning a living, period.
Here is one chart based on a 10% return every year (not very realistic but the suggestion is very clear):
"Gordon" started saving $2,000 per year from age 18-27 and then stopped. "Simon" began at age 27-65. Gordon has nearly 50% more money than Simon. That equation would apply no matter what the annual return was. The final figure would be different, but that would be the only change.
The message is clear; save early, save a lot, and keep saving. By doing that, and spending less than you have coming in, your financial life will be just about perfect.
The Bottom Line
Let me keep this simple:
- There is NO magic number.
- Save as much as you can for as long as you can.
- Always spend less than you have coming in.
- Invest an amount you can afford to invest, in dividend producing, mega cap, blue chip, dividend winner stocks.
- Keep monitoring your investments and make "not losing money" a key priority for your own financial well being.
- Live long and prosper!
Hey, if you want to make this your 2013 New Year Resolutions, be my guest.
Happy New Year everyone!

If You Want to Know the Human Impact of The Current Recession, Ask America's Teachers One of the things I've discovered in recent years is that when it comes to education policy, the last people asked for input are America's teachers.

Mark Naison: During the 1960's, New York city was the scene of an incredibly powerful anti-war and student movement. Like Occupy Wall Street, this movement was often attacked for being unrepresentative of the city's working class. In reality, this movement was far more diverse in class and race than critics at the time, or historians, realized.

"Speak Out" is an expression of opinion from the Editorial Board of WBTV, and is presented by General Manager, Nick Simonette.
Here we go again.
A new standardized test gets administered in the Charlotte Mecklenburg school district and test scores drop.
It seems every time the bar is raised, students have a tough time delivering.
When will this end?
These new scores show almost 20 percent of Charlotte Mecklenburg's 160 schools have a proficiency rate of LESS than 25 percent.
That's unacceptable.
CMS School Board members are frustrated, and we can't blame them.
Recently they grilled CMS staff about what they are going to do "differently" to improve test scores.
That's a great question.
You can't do the same thing and expect different results.
CMS says it is creating a plan to ensure each student's scores improve and to give teachers the support they need to help students.
These low test scores should serve as a reminder that teachers, parents, churches, politicians and communities need to come together to help our kids succeed.
It's everyone's responsibility to chip in.
We need to do whatever it takes to make sure each student is college and/or career ready once they graduate from high school.
If we don't do it now…we will surely pay for it later.

All cable/satellite companies do it but I HATE that the only time they offer reasonable prices is for new customers. A smart customer just goes back in between DSL and cable.
I signed up for this deal a year ago. It was 19.95 . Just got my 1st bill for the 2nd year, it's 34.95. No complaints here.
I bit on this promotion several years ago. My very last Mediacom bill in April was nearly $70 with taxes. I decided to dump Mediacom after they informed me that they were going to start charging me $5 a month to rent the cable modem that I they gave me to start service with. I went to DSL and have had no complaints other than a bulkier wallet.
Originally Posted by jeff0514 Has anyone seen this ad for new customers to sign up for Mediacom internet for $19.99 for a year and does not require cable to get that price? We got a flier in the mail, which mentions the price only goes up $10 the second year. I've been with Qwest/Century Link forever, but am stuck with 1.5 Mbps speed where I live in Ankeny. So thinking about trying this out for two years. Wondering if anyone else has signed up for this yet. I am a long time Mediacom subscriber and I called yesterday to add a few (approx 6) HD channels, the service agent noted I was receiving a significant reduction based on the # of channels I am subscribing to. To add the 6 HD channels was going to cost an additional $26 per month, I impolitely declined. She gave me some mumbo-jumbo that since I was a long term customer that I was receiving the benefit of a very old pricing structure and to make the change I would have the new pricing structure put in place. Obviously the existing customers are heavily subsidizing the new customers.
Anyone get in on this? The only thing I could find online was 19.99 for the first 12 months and then it goes up every 10 bucks a month after that.
Can somebody link the 20/30 deal available online? I'm doing this.
Looks like I'll be dropping service for a year, then coming back. Hoping the phone mobile hot spot can carry me for a year... Has anyone tried the 3G speed off one of the Verizon Mobile phones?
My bill jumped up to 145 with cable/interenet and DVR i got them to give me a 2 year deal...first year at 99 then second at 109. hopefully i dont miss out on something better.
Remember that stressed spelled backwards is desserts! "The New England Patriots: As annoying as the Yankess, just with 23 fewer titles."
i just signed up for an install of the 12 mbps service for $19.95 for first 12 months and $29.95 for next 12 months. Price does not include modem rental fee of $5 a month. I'll probably just buy one eventually, or does someone have a used one laying around I could buy?
Well, I just had this installed yesterday. For those of you with the 12 Mbps service, what download speeds do you typically get? Over a wireless connection, I'm only getting around 9 Mbps tops, but often around 7 Mbps.
Wired desktop
Wireless laptop But depending on the time of day and whatever it'll be anywhere from 7-8 to the full 12, I don't notice any slow down unless it gets much lower than that though, about 3-4 and I'll start noticing a problem.
I was a Mediacom customer for a long time (internet and cable). I just switched over my Century/Link phone to Mediacom. I got it for $4.95/month for one year and then goes to 29.95. Century/Link was running me about $70/month so it saves me a lot of money on phones service. They also increased my internet speed to 12mbs. I guess the phone requires more speed. Total bill per month is around $135. So, I don't think that is too bad. I see where new customers can get all three bundled for 29.95 each for two years....
Originally Posted by k123 I was just looking at that same flyer and fine print over lunch. Seems too good to be true...since Qwest went up from the intro price to $60 for internet only, and all other Mediacom deals required bundling. As far as I can tell, it is just $19.99 and applies for internet only. We have three choices in the Chicago suburbs and reportedly, Verizon, will be the fourth option in 2012. As a result, I just switched from AT&T Phone/Internet/Cable to WOW with 50Mbps/5Mbps Internet and the monthly bill went down because WOW will negotiate. My actual Speakeasy speeds this morning are 50.94Mbps Download/5.56Mbps Upload. That's what competition does in the marketplace.

Yep, and that's why it sucks that Mediacom is the only cable internet provider here. They have abused the hell out of us long-time subscribers and refuse to give us deals that are anywhere similar to those that new customers get. I was paying (sold the house a month ago and working on getting a new place) $150/month for digital cable and internet, no DVR, only one digital box, no phone. Ridiculous that their prices have gotten so high and its because customers only have two other options for TV, both being satellite providers. However, I will definitely be looking into the $19.95/month cable internet deal when we get our new place, along with DirecTV for television.
