Dark red-amber, with a thick tan head. Pretty and ornate lace.
Nose is sweetly malted. I get some caramel, and even a little fruit somehow.
Taste echoes this sentiment...I get some peat/earthiness, a little roasted quality, and some hints of dried fruit in the finish.
Quite a nice and flavorful Scotch-styler.

Pours a dark brown with copper highlights with a 2 inch head that held together nicley and left great lacing.
Very aromatic brew. Malty, hearty fruit, and possibly a touch of caramel and chocolate hidden in there too.
Taste follows the smell. Flavorful and robust. Sweet and smokey with some alcohol flavor.
Smooth drinking, nearing silky feel with sharp, but proper carbonation.
Pretty good beer overall, not my favorite though.

4.05/5 rDev +9.2%
look: 4 | smell: 4 | taste: 4 | feel: 4.5 | overall: 4
Appearance - A deep, rich, dark brown with a nice tan head. Head dissipated rather quickly
Smell - A light aroma, but toasty malts, chocolate and a slightly bitter bite break through.
Taste - Smooth. Malty base with a sweetness to it. Toasty, slightly chocolately with a tangy backbone that is reminiscent of dark fruit.
Mouth Feel - Excellent, medium gravity body with a crisp and satisfying snap to it. Smoothness is accented by a light carbonation that adds a slightly robust character.
Overall - A truly good ale with great character and craftsmanship. Not an A+ craft beer by any means, but an excellent, well made brew nonetheless.

look: 4.5 | smell: 4 | taste: 3.5 | feel: 3.5 | overall: 3.5
Pours nicely for a four finger thick light tan head, and has a cleanly filtered brown and copper colored body.
The aroma is a bit on the smoky side, along with hints of a metallic character.
Taste wise it retains the smoke flavor, along with hints of rye bread and a touch of sweet toffee.
Feel wise its lightly carbonated, a little oily slick and wetting to the palate.
Overall a different kind of beer unto itself.

look: 3.5 | smell: 3.5 | taste: 3.5 | feel: 4 | overall: 3
Dark brown and mostly clear in complexion. Not all that much head, but a decent sheen and some lacing, with rising bubbles.
A crisp, caramel malt aroma, accented with a touch of faintly fruity sweetness.
Roasty caramel malts and a touch of coffee and chocolate, almost similar to their oatmeal stouts, are what I sense in the taste. Not a really strong brew in any sense, but pleasant.
It's decently rich in feel, nice solid balanced aftertaste, and ample smooth carbonation.
Drinks ok. Nothing I'd seek out, but not bad either.

look: 4 | smell: 4 | taste: 4 | feel: 4 | overall: 4
pours a ruby/brown color, with excellent clarity and featuring a creamy soft light tan head. retention is brief, but an uneven ring never disappears completely and there is some lacing left behind. I'd love just a little more deep red color here!
rich nose, suggesting warmth. Earthy, heavily caramelized, and a sort of mineral-y edge. Quite a lot of alcohol noted here, no diacetyl.
Flavor follows the nose, alcohol never backing down but far from hot. More heavy caramel/toffee flavors. Thought I got mild diacetyl a couple times but it's probably the caramel. I've had too many of these that are really too sweet; this version has a nice balancing bitterness while remaining malt-focused.
Again there is ample earthy, mineral-y notes, but falls short of metallic and there is no astringency. Carbonation on the low end - appropriate, medium body somewhere between the smaller and larger styles of Scottish ale. Pretty clean, nice lingering malt flavor and mild bitterness without being sticky.
I'll have this again in a heartbeat - well done!
yet another in the long line of decent-or-better American versions of Scottish ales that are bigger than the Scottish Export (80 schilling) and smaller than the Strong Scotch Ale style. If we're calling it a 90 schilling (which I don't think is recognized as a separate style yet) you've got a winner.

12 oz. bottle poured into a mug.
Bottled with love on 01.18.2010
Pours a clear, soft-looking copper-tinted chestnut brown topped by a frothy off-white head.
Aromas are earthy and woodsy, with notes of dry leaves, shelled walnuts, pie crust, toasted malt, and a bit of grapey fruit in the background. Subtle on the whole, with nothing really jumping out. Seems appropriate for the style.
Sweet and rich--almost cloying--on the palate. Sugary caramel, candied nuts, and a bit of astringency. Finishes with a touch of dryness, but sweet on the whole. There's something of a fruit cocktail blend going on as well--grape, green apple, cherry--presumably from the yeast, that adds complexity but seems a bit out of place.
Medium bodied, soft and round. Light carbonation, fitting for the flavor profile. A pretty good scotch ale--though I find the versions with some peated malt to be better on the whole--and another solid offering from Schlafly.

12oz. bottle poured into a regular pint glass.
A - Dark amber. Aggressive pour yields a nice head that quickly falls but leaves a sticky lacing behind.
S - Kind of thin. Slightly fruity, light caramel. A bit disappointing.
T - Strong caramel and toasted malts with hints of vanilla and dark fruit. Not a great representation of this style, but not bad tasting by any means.
M - Thin and carbonated. Really weak for a scotch ale.
D - Easier to drink than most other scotch ales I've had. Although after a couple the taste really started to overwhelm me and had me reaching for a different style of beer for a pallet cleanser, (a porter in this case).

Pours brownish red with a thick head that retained well leaving behind small amounts of lacing
Scents of sweet caramel malts, hint of peat malts.
Ripe fruits and a good toasty malt backbone. Not nearly as big or strong as I expected.
Average mouthfeel, medium bodied, fairly low carbonation and a bit of a watery finish.

GLASS: Sam Adams Perfect Pint
TEMP: Cellared @ approx 50 degrees
Pours a dark copper color with ruby accents. A head of tan colored foam, about 1/8th inch thick forms on top and remains, almost until the end. Lacing is thick and lightly sticky.
A nice caramel maltiness eminates from the glass. An interesting spiciness blends with this and creates a scent not unlike a cinnamon roll. Interesting. A mild level of booziness is detected.
The maltiness is fairly mild. Spice notes work well with it. A light smokiness is here. Very subtle hints of dark fruit sweetness and coffee bitterness.
Medium-to-full bodied, with a medium level of carbonation. The carbonation is a bit much and creates an unnecessary sharpness to the feel. Very light touch of creaminess.
Not my favorite scotch ale, but certainly drinkable. If it were available locally, I'd have it somewhat regularly.

Bottle From Keg Liquor.
Poured clear brown color with an average frothy light brown head that mostly lasted with good lacing. Good caramel malt and nutty aroma. Medium to full body with a sticky texture and flat carbonation. Medium toasted sweet flavor with a moderate sweet finish of moderate duration.
Good beer.

When poured into a pint glass is poured a dark copper red color with a very small thin white head that disappeared pretty fast. Leaves little to no lacing. The aroma is nice, malty, almost got a roasted malt smell from it, caramel, all together an above average smell. Taste, hmmm, wow not what I was expecting. I think it's pretty good. Caramel, malts, some darker fruit taste? I actually enjoy the taste of this one. It's drinkable, I can easily do this one and if I had another I would drink it right after but I don't. Good stuff. I've only had a couple other Scotch Ales and that was before I was really into beer so I don't remember what they were like. After this one I will have to give some more a try as I enjoy it. Overall I like this one, not something I would drink every single day but I would like to pick this one up from time to time if available.

Received this in a wonderful mix of Midwest brews lately, I had been waiting to try it and last night I went ahead and busted out a bunch of them and had myself a little mini tasting. Served cold and poured into a pint glass, this one was consumed on 04/23/2009.
The pour was very nice, a rich dark caramel brown in color, with a dark and hazy appearance to it. A light tan head of foam rose up from the bottom of the glass and reached a height of nearly two inches before settling down with some nice side glass lacing as well. Rich aroma, lots of caramel, earthy tones abound here with a chewy almost grass like texture to it. As it warms some very nice and notable hop notes star to take effect, piney with a gritty flavor to them, but they are quickly brushed aside by a more then ample malt bill. Smooth, even feel on this one with a big medium body to it. I had no issue at all with putting it down and in fact I would have looked for another almost immediately.
Overall a very solid ale here and very nice example of the style. I have always had good luck with their offerings and this one was no exception.

Pours a nice dark copper color with good initial head and some nice lacing. Excellent scent, deep with a semi-malt aroma and a great peat overtone to it. Great taste, nice and peaty, truly Scotch, with a nice malt feel and a good hoppy finish. It goes down quite nicely, a great Scottish style ale.

12oz bottle poured into pint glass. Pours dark brownish red, not as dark as most scotch ales, with very little head. Smell is sweet and of roasted malts. Taste is very malt heavy with a scotch backbone that balances well with the malt. Medium bodied mouthfeel. Decent drinkability but its sweetness is a little cloying. Overall a decent scotch ale but not mind blowing. Nowhere close to Founders Dirty Bastard.

12oz. brown bottle, purchased at Party Source, poured into an imperial pint.
A: Pours dark brown with good clarity, though a bit light for the style. Short head forms fizzy and dies relatively fast. Not much lacing.
S: Sweet and thick malts. Musty and husky, though that seems to be a touch of adjunct in the back like corn, but I'm pretty sure they don't use adjuncts. No alcohol or peaty/woodsy/smoky/etc. aromas.
T/M: Very sweet and caramelly. Much to sweet to the point of cloying. Maybe some light molasses or burnt sugars. So damn sweet. Again, no alcohol whatsoever and none of the peaty or woodsy flavors, not even anything earthy. I guess the peat isn't required but it's nearly always at least suggested in the flavor profile. Body feels a bit heavy but it lacks carbonation and in turn it's almost flat and watery.
D: Wouldn't be too hard to drink if it wasn't so damn sweet. But it is and isn't extremely flavorful or to style. If it was labeled a Scottish, it'd be closer.

12oz. bottle served in a shaker pint. Poured a clear reddish brown with a sparse tan head. Pretty subdued aroma, mostly caramel malt. Nice rich mouthfeel. Plenty of malt without being overly sweet. Fairly dry malty finish. Maybe a hint of smoke in the finish. Very easy drinking, sessionable beer, but nothing special.

Pours a clear dark copper color with a thin, but decadent looking cream colored head. Decent retention and lacing.
Nose is of creamy, sweet caramel maltiness with some mild hints of amaretto, earthiness and buttered popcorn. Smells good.
Taste is a bit on the sweet side, but there are some toffee, hazelnut and peat flavors in there to make it feel more Scotch Ale-esque. Alcohol has a mild bite, as do some earthy hops. I'd say this is an above average SA and seem to be emptying my glass at a rapid pace.

12 oz. bottle tried 2 Mar 2009.
Poured in Abita pint glass. One finger high light brown head. Well carbonated. Color of coca cola with red highlights. Aroma is very malty, syrupy, very ripe bananas and sweet potato pancakes. Starts with lots of malt, dates, some rum flavor. A slight sourness from beginning to end. Finish and aftertaste are full of dates, rum, syrup and cinnamon. Seems a bit on the thin side for the style, expected a little more alcohol.
Large difference between me and A on this one (A lower).

Pours chestnut with 1+ finger of sand colored head. Above average head retention & lacing
S: Toasty malt & caramel in small doses & a touch of oakyness, plus a bit of booze
T: Toasty malt, grainyness & caramel up front. Slight apricot fruittyness comes through as this warms, along with dryness. A touch of persimmons in the finish, along with a sliver of oakyness, & more caramel, a kiss of booze & a gnat's fart of smokeyness (not enough)
MF: Medium bodied with low carbonation
Drinks easy enough, but just not on style enough to get too excited about. more malt back bone & some smokeyness, please! This would do in a jam to be sure

A- Clear amber with a ruby red hue. Small head that quickly dissipates to a small foamy covering.
A- Fruity malty aroma with a slightly earthy smell as well.
T- Fruit is less evident in the taste. I get more of a roasted malt flavor with some caramel notes.
M- Medium body with moderate carbonation. Very smooth. Gives a nice warming sensation.
D- Very enjoyable scotch ale, not as high in alcohol as others. Great on a cold winter's night.

It is a dark opaque beer with a little bit of a red hue. It has an off-white head and average lace. It smells very sweet and a little bit spicy which I thought was pleasant but odd. It has a piney and wood like taste to it. There is mild bitterness to the roasted malt flavoring. It has a little bit of a fizzy and earthy mouthfeel.

M: Very full bodied and well suited.
D: Easy drinking, delicious brew. (Still, it isn't like any scotch style ales I've tasted - but good).

This installation was the fastest it's ever happened. Normally I get the "You already have a version of Swype installed. Please remove and reinstall" message 4-5 times before it installs. Last month I cleared home defaults, powered downed, rebooted and used the stock home with no widgets and it installed fine. This time I merely launched the stock home (via Home Switcher) and pressed the installer. It updated and installed Swype. I liked how it paused to get the license.
I've used Swype for some time and really like it.
I think if your phone came with swype, you can't get these updates. The updates are for the betas, but the swype that comes preloaded isnt a beta. That is my understanding.
Correct...we Beta users are the lab rats. That is why the Beta is closed...but still getting updates. They fix all the bugs they find in the pre-loaded versions on the Droid X and other phones and push it to us for testing before pushing the updates to them.
As for why they never released this to the market....I believe I read somewhere that when they signed the agreements to have this keyboard preloaded by certain manufacturers...they agreed never to release it to the market. I am sure if this is the case...they were handsomely compensated for that sacrifice with a giant check that would take millions of users to pay for the keyboard to equal....and correct me if I am wrong, but I don't think any app has reached a million downloads yet....let alone a paid app.
Current Phone- Rezound...unlocked and perm-rooted!

I've been using swype since the second update of the beta (well technically the first beta b/c it was leaked). I signed up for the beta testing and have been using it as my main keyboard ever since. My one complaint (very small) is that it seems to lose all of the custom words you add to the dictionary when you update from one to another.
BIONIC - Ice Cream Sandwich .246 SafeStrap 3 (ICS/CM10/CodenameAndroid)
Kindle Fire - Jelly Bean 4.1.1 by HashCode
OG DROID DROID CONCEPTS ROMS (looking for ideas to re-purpose this fine device)
Finally Swype opened the beta again! Got the email overnight installed this morning and am finally enjoying a released version of Swype
I installed the Beta last night, worked great. Got the new Verizon update this AM, now Swype not working. I can use the keys individually like the Android keyboard, but Swyping is not working. Anyone else having this problem?

The FMCSA Office of Research and Technology (R & T) recently presented its 4th Annual Forum entitled FMCSA Research & Technology: Synergy in Partnerships, in conjunction with the Transportation Research Boards 83rd Annual Meeting. The Forum provided insights from toplevel speakers and two sets of panelists on how public-private partnerships that involve government, academia, and industry work toward common transportation safety goals.
Mary Powers-King, FMCSA's R & T Director, started the Forum with a warm welcome to an audience of approximately 150 attendees. She introduced John Hill, FMCSA's Chief Safety Officer, who gave the opening remarks. He stressed the importance of government, industry, and publicprivate partnerships as a way to make our roads and commercial vehicles safer and to keep commerce and freight moving.
In his keynote address, Acting Administrator of Research and Special Programs Administration, Samuel Bonasso, gave his viewpoints on what he called "a topic dear to my heart"public-private partnerships. Mr. Bonasso noted that no single research entity possesses all of the required resources to meet all of its strategic goals and that partnerships are critical to expanding one's capabilities and resource pool.
Brigham A. McCown, FMCSA's Chief Counsel, reviewed the permissible arrangements the government can have with third parties and the process that must be followed to do so. He also talked about the many ways in which the U.S. government can potentially partner with outside entities and the Standards of Ethical Conduct that apply to Federal employees in these partnerships.
Mary Powers-King (above upper right), Samuel Bonasso (above left), and John Hill (above right) extend a warm welcome to the attendees of the R&T 4th Annual Forum.
Martin Walker, FMCSA's Research Division Chief, introduced the first panel and served as the moderator for the panel. This panel included Jeff Secrist (Office of Research and Technology) discussing CVISN Deployment, Sandra Zywokarte (Office of Bus and Truck Standards and Operations) discussing Driver Physical Qualification Requirements, Debbie Freund (Office of Bus and Truck Standards and Operations) discussing the Sensors Study, Ralph Craft (Office of Information Management) presenting Fatigue Management, and Jeff Loftus (Office of Research and Technology) discussing the merits of a Roadside Testing Feasibility Study.
The second panel was introduced by Doug McKelvey, FMCSA's Technology Division Chief. Mr. McKelvey also served as moderator for this panel, which consisted of Greg Larson with California DOT representing the public sector, Ellison Wittels, MD from the medical industry, Tom Dingus of Virginia Tech Transportation Institute representing academia, Alex Guariento of Greyhound representing the private sector, and Robert Clarke of the Truck Manufacturers Association representing associations. Their presentations focused on the opportunities that arise from their perspective and experience when the public and private sectors come together to take advantage of the natural synergies that exist between them. For more information on the panelists or the R&T Forum please contact Albert Alvarez at 202-385-2387 (TTY 1-800-877-8339).
The panelists presented a variety of topics to approximately 150 people in attendance.

Gen Y May Face Least Secure Retirement
You're Hired! Start Saving?
Say you have nabbed that elusive steady job. Now the savings process can begin. But the amount you can start saving often depends on the costs incurred to become employable; and education costs are higher than ever.
The average annual cost of attending a year of college varies from $19,300 at a public college to $37,400 at a private one, according to the U.S. Department of Education's latest data. This is respectively $4,200 and $6,200 more expensive than it was in 2000.
These costs are driving student loan debt , which is currently clocking over $989 billion, according to the research firm FinAid.org, and is a major threat to Gen Y's retirement savings.
"Our research shows over a third of Gen Y entered the work force with more college debt than their parents. They see student loan debt as their biggest barrier to 401(k) participation," says Richard Mason, president of corporate markets for ING U.S. Retirement.
For many graduates, reducing debt is the first priority before saving. At 29, software developer Bryan Valenti is contributing to his 401(k) savings plan only after having paid off his student debt, and plans to do more. "I need to open an IRA this year to improve the rate of saving," he said. ??
An IRA's appeal is that it is tax deductible; unlike a 401(k), it is unregulated by an employer, who can limit contribution amounts.
But apart from the tangible hurdles of student debt and unemployment, Gen Yers attitudes about their financial picture say a great deal about their retirement expectations. Perceptions about housing and Social Security in particular distinguish Gen Y.
Investment Savvy
Unlike their parents, they don't view housing as a viable nest egg.
"Boomers said, 'Oh I'll retire on my home equity.' Gen Y can see that wasn't the magic bullet it appeared to be," says de Baca.
Since the recession, Gen Yers have watched as roughly half of Americans homeowners struggle with "underwater" mortages — owing more than their homes are worth.
"You don't buy a house because it is a good nest egg. You buy it because you want a stable home, a place to start a family. It's an expense," says Valenti.
Nor are Valenti and his peers counting on Social Security. "I think the climate of shrinking state government budgets and accumulating federal debt will torpedo Social Security. I'm not doom and gloom every day, but I'd be pretty stupid to depend on it."
According to the Congressional Budget Office's annual report on Social Security solvency, in 2023 trust fund assets will start to diminish until they become exhausted in 2036 — well before Gen Yers even contemplate retiring.
"I hope that social security will exist when I retire, but I don't believe it will," says Prem Ramaswami, a 30-year-old Internet product manager.
Better Be a Buffett
Without home equity or government checks to support retirement, the golden years become dependent on investing.
So Gen Yers are doing their homework.
"My clients out of grad school are a different breed. They do much more research before they invest," says Wayne Copelin, founder of Copelin Financial Advisors.
"They do not count on Social Security and don't even know about pensions, but most of them are maxing out 401(k)s," he adds.
Dave Roderick, 30, works as a software engineer at an aerospace company, and is an active investor with a stock portfolio, a Roth IRA and a conventional 401(k).
"I buy stocks with the long-term view in mind. I think I have more options in terms of the types of funds I can invest in with my 401(k). My dad probably didn't have 50 funds he could choose from when he was my age," says Roderick.
But Roderick's equity-focused investing style may not be the norm. "We see Gen Y as actually overly conservative, they're so afraid of risk. It's almost a backlash Depression-era mentality. An under-amount of risk is a lost opportunity for growth. As markets improve, this may change, but it will take them longer to take more risk," says de Baca.
Roxanna Rabbie echoes the post financial crisis mentality: "Don't ever gamble what you can't afford to lose. If you're not a pro trader, it's safer to go into a CD [certificate of deposit] or some kind of municipal bond," she says.
Suffice it to say, there isn't a safety net built for Gen Y retirement, and exposure to market risk is inherent in all investment funds — including 401(k)s and IRAs.
On top of market risk, the financial hurdles of student loans, a weak housing market, and high unemployment are shaping this generation's savings rate, and there is no end-date guarantee. Only time will tell whether 401(k)s will provide what is necessary — but time is Gen Y's greatest ally.

Portable Profiles and Privacy: Choppy Ux Ahead
I'm always watchful for how the words describing goals and software features can influence the final form and flow of those features. If I think a part of the product's vocabulary works against its brand or the kinds of outcomes it's supposed to create, I'll work to get it changed.
Last week, changing words brought something I'd been mulling over into much clearer resolution. This week, conversations at Open Web moved it to the point where it might be good to share here.

Artist Deb Sokolow Will Speak at the Opening of Her New Reception at the Wadsworth in Hartford
Chicago artist Deb Sokolow apparently didn't get enough of that whole "election" thing a few months ago. Some Concerns About the Candidate, Sokolow's new MATRIX exhibit at the Wadsworth, tells the story of a fictional congress wannabee — named Jim Jones, nicely, and based on the People's Temple cult leader — filtered through the handwritten journal entries of a campaign worker, who becomes increasingly concerned with his unorthodox vote-winning tactics. But hey, politics and humor go well together, and both seem right at home in a MATRIX exhibit. Head to the opening at the museum's First Thursday event, where Sokolow will give a gallery talk at 6 p.m., Mikata will do their world-music thing and Joe Young will draw some cartoons. (Sounds oddly similar to my actual election night.)

Trade-Ideas: Emerson Electric (EMR) Is Today's New Lifetime High Stock
Editor's Note: Any reference to TheStreet Ratings and its underlying recommendation does not reflect the opinion of TheStreet, Inc. or any of its contributors including Jim Cramer or Stephanie Link.Trade-Ideas LLC identified Emerson Electric (EMR) as a new lifetime high candidate. In addition to specific proprietary factors, Trade-Ideas identified Emerson Electric as such a stock due to the following factors:
- EMR has an average dollar-volume (as measured by average daily share volume multiplied by share price) of $199.7 million.
- EMR has traded 3.0 million shares today.
- EMR is trading at a new lifetime high.
EXCLUSIVE OFFER: Get the inside scoop on opportunities in EMR with the Ticky from Trade-Ideas. See the FREE profile for EMR NOW at Trade-IdeasMore details on EMR: Emerson Electric Co., a diversified technology company, engages in designing and supplying products and technology, and providing engineering services and solutions to the industrial, commercial, and consumer markets worldwide. The stock currently has a dividend yield of 2.6%. EMR has a PE ratio of 31.0. Currently there are 5 analysts that rate Emerson Electric a buy, no analysts rate it a sell, and 16 rate it a hold.The average volume for Emerson Electric has been 3.1 million shares per day over the past 30 days. Emerson Electric has a market cap of $45.4 billion and is part of the technology sector and electronics industry. The stock has a beta of 1.31 and a short float of 1.7% with 4.07 days to cover. Shares are up 20.1% year to date as of the close of trading on Thursday.STOCKS TO BUY: TheStreet Quant Ratings has identified a handful of stocks that can potentially TRIPLE in the next 12-months. Learn more.TheStreetRatings.com Analysis:TheStreet Quant Ratings rates Emerson Electric as a buy. The company's strengths can be seen in multiple areas, such as its solid stock price performance, largely solid financial position with reasonable debt levels by most measures, good cash flow from operations and expanding profit margins. We feel these strengths outweigh the fact that the company has had sub par growth in net income.Highlights from the ratings report include:
- Compared to its closing price of one year ago, EMR's share price has jumped by 25.85%, exceeding the performance of the broader market during that same time frame. Regarding the stock's future course, although almost any stock can fall in a broad market decline, EMR should continue to move higher despite the fact that it has already enjoyed a very nice gain in the past year.
- The current debt-to-equity ratio, 0.55, is low and is below the industry average, implying that there has been successful management of debt levels. Along with the favorable debt-to-equity ratio, the company maintains an adequate quick ratio of 1.08, which illustrates the ability to avoid short-term cash problems.
- Net operating cash flow has increased to $995.00 million or 17.61% when compared to the same quarter last year. In addition, EMERSON ELECTRIC CO has also modestly surpassed the industry average cash flow growth rate of 14.05%.
- 42.81% is the gross profit margin for EMERSON ELECTRIC CO which we consider to be strong. It has increased from the same quarter the previous year. Regardless of the strong results of the gross profit margin, the net profit margin of 3.05% trails the industry average.
- EMR, with its decline in revenue, underperformed when compared the industry average of 9.0%. Since the same quarter one year prior, revenues slightly dropped by 2.1%. Weakness in the company's revenue seems to have hurt the bottom line, decreasing earnings per share.

The goal for the geriatric emergency department is to improve healthcare and emergency healthcare for functional and emergent seniors. This is for all of our aging parents, grandparents, and even for ourselves when we finally hit that age of 65 when we'll be eligible to come into the geriatric emergency department.
There are several parts to a geriatric emergency department and one of those is education. Both our nursing staff and our medical staff have been trained on how to manage geriatric illnesses. It also has to do with quality initiatives. We have a call back program, we call it the 2 step emergency department. Not only are patients seen in the emergency department which is step 1 but they're actually re-evaluated the next day at home which is step 2. We have found that the 2 step process actually decreases functional decline in functionally independent seniors.
When you have a staff that is very attuned to geriatric needs and they know about continuity of care and medication interactions its just an added resource to help you be a better physician and take care of patients, not only taking care of them in the emergency department but also upon discharge making sure they're all set up for follow-up care and social services. There's so much work that has gone into the physical plan. The point here is to make it much less noisy. These ceiling tiles are 4 inches thick and they have insulation above them. These lights change color to appear soothing as a patient when you're in here we can change the lights any way you want. We have incandescent lights, dimmable flourescent lights, these mattresses are dense foam mattresses and that way its more comfortable if you have to stay here for an extended period of time. The flooring is non-glare non-slip and we're going to encourage our patients while they're here if they're waiting for tests to walk up and down this hallway. Part of our healing is we have a medical harpist for people who are very anxious, if we can make them more calm we can better manage their anxiety, their blood pressure, their delirium, and we can use less medications and give better healthcare.
This coming year we'll see 28,000 seniors that will come through our geriatric emergency department. This absolutely is the way to the future, having an emergency department with staff and follow-ups you're helping to plan accordingly and also prevent a lot of repeat visits to the emergency department. Geriatrics particularly will feel very welcomed and gratified by all the special treatment they are going to receive.
Because of the flexibility of this administrative staff, the Sisters willing to try something new we were able to put together a program that never existed anywhere in the country that now will become the standard for geriatric emergency care.
The Alfiero and Lucia Palestroni Birth Defects Center at the St. Joseph's Children Hospital located at St. Joseph's Regional Medical Center in Paterson NJ illustrates their excellence of care model. The center organizes both disease specific clinics and medical care for children and adults with complex medical conditions.
The pediatric orthopedic clinic at St. Joseph's is now seeing up to 60 children a week. We've fostered a lot of new referrals from physicians and institutions that we never have before. This is with every passing year creating more of a strain on the time and resources available within the institution. The level of involvement in pediatrics is very different than you would see in traditional medicine, we are trying to correct things that take a lifetime to resolve. The Palestroni Center was developed in 2007 through the generosity of the Alfiero & Lucia Palestroni Foundation.

PARIS, January 9, 2014 /PRNewswire/ --
Innovative adhesive technology published as a cover feature in the high impact journal, Science Translational Medicine
Gecko Biomedical, a French medical device company developing 'bio-inspired' biodegradable surgical glues and patches for wound closure, announces that the Company's co-founders have published data demonstrating the potential of its paradigm-shifting technologies for minimally invasive reconstructive heart surgery.
'Bio-inspired' biodegradable surgical glue repairs defects of the heart and blood vessels
In a paper entitled "A Blood-Resistant Surgical Glue for Minimally Invasive Repair of Vessels and Heart Defects", published in the January 8, 2014 issue of Science Translational Medicine (online) (Ref. 1), the authors, including Gecko Biomedical co-founders Robert Langer Sc.D. (Massachusetts Institute of Technology) and Jeffrey Karp Ph.D. (Brigham and Women's Hospital), describe a revolutionary biodegradable and biocompatible surgical glue that was inspired by adhesive mechanisms observed in nature that function in challenging yet comparable (wet and dynamic) environments to those found in the body.
The 'bio-inspired' glue described is non-toxic, binds strongly to tissues offering a leak-proof seal on demand, and works well in the presence of actively contracting tissues and blood flow. The authors demonstrate how the adhesive, alone or in conjunction with a biodegradable patch, can effectively be used to repair defects (ruptures) of the heart and blood vessels during minimally invasive procedures.
Precise control of the wound closure process could shift the surgical paradigm
The glue is based on the combination of safe, naturally occurring compounds to form a biocompatible pre-polymer with tunable adhesive and mechanical properties. The glue is soft and elastic when applied to the wet surfaces of the wounds where it adheres gently to the tissues, permitting fine adjustments or repositioning when used with the patch. The glue is activated (polymerized) upon exposure to ultraviolet (UV) light to form a strong, leak-proof but flexible seal, giving the surgeon full control of the process. The adhesive can be engineered with mechanical characteristics similar to arteries and the digestive system, where initial applications are targeted. The authors also describe how the composition of the pre-polymer can be adjusted for strength or rate of biodegradation to suit the wound being repaired.
Jeffrey Karp, from the Department of Medicine at the Brigham and Women's Hospital, a co-founder of Gecko Biomedical and co-senior author of the study, said: "The tissue adhesive that we developed satisfies a long list of design criteria including biodegradation, biocompatibility, ability to strongly adhere on-demand to tissue with a water-tight seal in the presence of flowing blood, and elastic properties to accommodate cyclical forces such as those exerted by a beating heart or blood vessel. It offers the potential to reduce the invasiveness of surgical procedures, reduce operative times, and improve outcomes for patients."
"This platform of adhesive elastomers is truly versatile to address multiple meaningful applications in the clinic," said Maria N. Pereira, Ph.D., co-first author of the study who was previously in the Department of Medicine at the Brigham and Women's Hospital and is now Head of Adhesive Technologies at Gecko Biomedical.
Christophe Bancel, Chief Executive Officer of Gecko Biomedical, added: "The science and research supporting the development of Gecko's liquid film adhesive and patch technologies is of the highest quality. What has been achieved so far is very exciting and we are focused on undertaking the further necessary steps to get these innovative products into the hands of surgeons within the next few years, for the benefit of patients."

"Josh helped me understand how to use Betterfly to really maximize my exposure to new clients! Thanks Josh. "
Robert L. July 6, 2010
"Joshua is a great teacher with a gift for guidance. As a finance and accounting major, I was familiar with terms that were used in Quickbooks, and Joshua was able to recognize this and move on to allow me to learn faster and more efficiently. Even before getting into the software itself, Joshua thoroughly explained the logic and mechanisms of the program in order for me to get a more firm grasp of the concepts. He also explained the importance as well as scope of the software. With simple yet detailed instructions, Joshua finally taught me how to use the otherwise complicated software. Now, I am able to record journal entries with ease and create balance sheets and income statements in no time at all. Joshua has been a great teacher."

What will the wildcard be? Don't Be Afraid of the Dark?
never saw Zack and Miri and HATED A Clockwork Orange. I cancelled my Netflix and have no way to watch movies anymore. it bums me out.
Wild Card.
and yes, I'm back!
See, I told you guys that there were gonna be people that were not as charmed by Clockwork as some of us are. Especially at the time it came out, it was a very divisive movie.
jd, might as well start the discussion?? This movie has certainly been seen by a lot of us already.....if no, delete this, please
CO is not an "enjoyable" movie. Watching it is almost like taking a drug that takes you to places that you'd rather not be. Although, I have the same aversion to the film version of Pink Floyd's "The Wall" Way too dark for me to see. I can't get past the first 5 minutes of it.
Anyway, CO does make the trip interesting. McDowell is outstanding. Mick Jagger was considered but they wisely went with McDowell. Kubrick's direction, the sets, the costumes, the music, the adaptation....all outstanding, to me anyway.

Championship Dates Announced |
Clubs - Men's DI Clubs |
USA Rugby announced its dates and venues for spring high school, U19, college and club championships Monday. However, some locations have not yet been decided. Per USA Rugby's press release, two locations (northeast and south) for Women's DI and DII College playoffs are yet to be finalized. USA Rugby's events department is currently in discussions with potential hosts for those two locations, and hope to have them finalized by February. USA Rugby Event Director Jen Gray expects to finalize the remaining 2012 championship events, including men's and women's club sevens and several all-star events, by the end of April. As suspected, the boys high school and high school club invitationals and men's DI-A, D-IAA and DIII college championships will take place at Rio Tinto Stadium in Sandy, Utah May 18-19. The DI-A final will take place on Saturday the 19th, with the semifinals set to take place then week prior. Venues for the semifinals have not yet been released. The 2011 DI-A semifinals were staged at Glendale, Colo. and were aired on ESPNU. They were held at a neutral site so both could receive television coverage. It's unclear if this will happen again. Women's College Playoffs | April 20-22, 2012 | 4 Locations Men's College Playoffs | April 28-29, 2012 | 4 Locations Women's DI, DII College Championship & Girl's HS Invitational | May 11-12, 2012 Men's DI-A, DI-AA, DII College Championship & Boy's HS & Boy's HS Club Invitational | May 18-19, 2012 Men's Club Playoffs | May 12-13, 2012 | 2 Locations Men's Club Championships | June 2-3, 2012 |

Officials at the Department of Education said Friday that Taleek Brooks, a school aide arrested for allegedly producing child pornography, was often a chaperone on school-sponsored trips.
Education officials say there were other chaperones with Brooks, including the principal.
DOE officials also said Brooks was an adviser to a dance group that operated at PS 243 in Brooklyn, and it appears he occasionally took group members on non-school-sponsored trips to the movies.
Brooks was arrested on Monday after investigators say they uncovered videos of him assaulting two children in a school.
The videos came from a computer seized earlier this month when he was first arrested.
DOE officials said Brooks was suspended without pay since his first arrest.
He is being held without bail.

Reader Comments (Page 1 of 1)
I believe they were always like this. I could be wrong, of course, but I think that's it. I always just assumed that the Dark Irons were a different sort of earthen before being "awakened", as opposed to the Wildhammers and Bronzebeards.
Of course, now that I think of it, you're suggestion might make mores sense. The constant presence of ash and flame in their home and their darkened state might be connected (and yes, I know that biology does not work like that, but still). It could be either, really.

"Anything you can do in excess for the wrong reasons is exciting to me."
Actress, writer. Born October 21, 1956 in Los Angeles, California. As the daughter of entertainers Eddie Fisher and Debbie Reynolds, Fisher became one of the most visible actresses of her generation for her role as Princess Leia in Star Wars (1977) and its sequels.
In the early to mid-1980s, Fisher weathered problems with alcohol, drugs and depression, while appearing in a series of largely forgettable films including Under the Rainbow (1981) and Hollywood Vice Squad (1986).
But as the decade drew to a close, Fisher again came into her own, both on- and off-screen. In 1987, she published her first novel, Postcards from the Edge, a successful semi-autobiographical tale of a showbusiness mother and daughter. She later adapted the novel into a screenplay. The film featured Meryl Streep and was directed by Mike Nichols.
She also turned in a series of solid supporting roles in films such as When Harry Met Sally (1989) and Soap Dish (1991), in which she took a comic turn as a bawdy casting director. She continues to play small roles in prominent feature films. She also has her own interview show with Oxygen Media called Conversations from the Edge with Carrie Fisher.
She has also helped revise many Hollywood scripts, including Sister Act (1992),Outbreak (1995) and The Wedding Singer (1998).
Divorced from pop-icon Paul Simon, she has one child, Billie Catherine.

Nitro's Alex White kicked a 42-yard field goal with 14.7 seconds left in the first period to slice his team's deficit to 7-3.
After both teams traded punts, Ripley scored on its next four possessions, including its first of the third quarter, to seize a 35-10 advantage with 10:32 to go in the period.
"I'm tickled to death with them,'' said Frashier of his young team. "We played a little better pass defense.
"We stopped them and got some three-and-outs early, which is something we hadn't been able to do. I didn't think we made the same mistakes. That's good to see.''
The Wildcats' offense, which had been averaging 28 points and 405 yards per game, languished. Nitro turned the ball over on downs once, lost a fumble once and punted twice before Chris Moody hit Ethan Clark for a 4-yard score on a slant to close to 21-10 with 2:15 remaining in the opening half.
Moody finished 21-of-37 for 207 yards with one TD and three interceptions, two of which were returned for scores on back-to-back possessions late in the fourth quarter after the game was out of hand. Clark turned in 105 yards on eight catches with one score. Brayden Underwood churned out 96 yards on 12 tries, but 63 of those came on a late TD. White also connected on a 37-yard field goal in the third quarter.
"We'll have to do a better job at practice this week and get back to the way we were the first two weeks,'' said Midkiff, a former Nitro quarterback. "I don't know what happened to [our players] this week. We'll get back out there and back to the grind.''
It was a bittersweet homecoming for Nitro assistant coach Bryce Casto. The former South Charleston head coach is a former Vikings standout and is in the school's athletic hall of fame.
Nitro and Ripley met for the 25th time since 1934 with the Wildcats now holding a 14-11 advantage. The Wildcats and Vikings each had a player ejected for play after the whistle Friday in the final period.

NC Clean Energy Data Book Released
People interested in North Carolina's clean energy economy will now find much of what they're looking for in one source. The non-profit North Carolina Sustainable Energy Association has released a book that compiles various data, maps, and charts on North Carolina's green infrastructure.
Spokeswoman Julie Robinson says there isn't just one dominant source of clean energy.
Julie Robinson: "That's what's so great about North Carolina. We have it all here. Here in the Triangle, we've got a rapidly growing smart-grid industry getting national and international attention because we've got so many companies that are producing just great technology that's being developed right here."
Robinson also points to solar and wind as valuable sources of clean energy. She says that despite promising growth, the state needs to do a lot more to build up its clean energy infrastructure.
Robinson: "There's definitely so much more North Carolina could be doing. The REPS law that was passed in 2007 is a perfect example of one policy having such a wide, far-reaching, positive impact for our state, in terms of the number of jobs that can be created, business opportunities, new energy sources, home-grown energy sources that our state can develop."
The Renewable Energy Portfolio Standard requires North Carolina utilities to get 12.5% of their energy from renewable sources by 2012.
