Financial Aid
Federal Direct PLUS Loan
The Federal Direct PLUS Loan is a part of the William D. Ford Federal Direct Loan Program. Direct PLUS Loans are available to parents or legal guardians of dependent undergraduate students. Direct PLUS Loans are designed to cover any portion of the student's estimated cost of attendance not already being covered by other types of financial aid.
To be eligible for a PLUS Loan, both the student and the parent borrower must meet the following qualifications: 1) the individual must be a U.S. citizen, U.S. national, or an eligible non-citizen, 2) the individual must provide his or her valid social security number, 3) the individual must not be in default on any federal education loan, 4) the individual must meet the guarantor's requirements with respect to state of residence or regional service area, and 5) the individual must not have been determined to be ineligible for a Stafford or PLUS loan that has already been obtained. In order to verify that the student and the parent borrower meet all of the aforementioned criteria, Lewis & Clark requires that a FAFSA be filed before the origination of any PLUS Loan.
How to Apply
Apply for a Federal Direct PLUS Loan.
If you have not yet filed a Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA), you must do so before your Federal PLUS Loan may be originated. You can file your FAFSA online at www.fafsa.ed.gov.
Fees and Disbursement
UPDATE: Due to sequestration, all Direct PLUS Loans with a first disbursement date on or after December 1, 2013 and before October 1, 2014 will have an origination fee of 4.288%.
All Direct PLUS Loans with a first disbursement date on or after July 1, 2013 but before December 1, 2013 will have an origination fee of 4.204%.
Be aware of this fee when determining the amount that will be received and applied to the student account. Use the net disbursement amount (principal minus fee) when completing the "Estimating College Costs" worksheet.
PLUS Loan funds are disbursed to student accounts at the beginning of each semester. The loan amount will be divided evenly between each semester of enrollment during the academic year. We will notify you when PLUS funds have been disbursed.
Returning loan funds to your lender
We will return loan funds if your written request is received within 14 days after the disbursement notification has been sent to you.
After this time, you can return Direct Loan funds by check to your servicer. For information about your servicer, please visit NSLDS.
To ensure that the payment is properly credited, you will need to include a cover letter stating whether the funds are for a loan payment or for canceling (inactivating) a loan. This note should indicate which loan(s) the returned funds should be applied to, and in what amounts (if repayment is split between loans).
A borrower has up to 120 days after the disbursement date to return Direct Loan funds without being responsible for paying fees and any accrued interest on the amount canceled.
Deferment of Payment and Forbearance
Payment of a PLUS Loan may be deferred if the student is enrolled in school on at least a half-time basis or is engaged in a graduate fellowship. Payment may also be deferred if the borrower is unemployed or in a situation of demonstrable economic hardship. During a deferment, interest continues to accrue on the loan and may be capitalized (added to the principal of the loan).
In situations not covered by deferment, a borrower may ask for a forbearance. By granting forbearance, the lender permits a temporary cessation of payments, allows an extension of time for making payments, or temporarily accepts smaller payments than were previously scheduled.
Interest and Repayment
UPDATE: Federal Direct PLUS Loans with a first disbursement date of July 1, 2013 or later have a fixed interest rate of 6.41%.
PLUS Loans with a first disbursement date prior to July 1, 2013 and after July 1, 2006 have a fixed interest rate of 7.9%.
A PLUS Loan borrower enters repayment at the time the loan is fully disbursed. The lender must notify the borrower of the terms and conditions for repayment of the loan before repayment is scheduled to begin. The minimum monthly payment is $50.00. A borrower is allowed at least 5 years (unless the minimum required payment will retire the debt in less time), and no more than 10 years, to repay a PLUS loan. A borrower may prepay his or her loan in full or in part at any time, without penalty and without liability for unearned interest.
Alternative repayment schedules and deferment or forbearance options are available on all federal student loans, including the PLUS Loan. Extended repayment plans (up to 25 years) are available for borrowers with federal education debt exceeding $30,000.
The following table is based on a standard 10 year repayment plan. Use this table to estimate the monthly payment amount for your Federal Direct PLUS Loan(s).
7.00% | 7.50% | 8.00% | 8.25% | 8.50% | |
$5,000.00 | $58.05 | $59.35 | $60.66 | $61.33 | $61.99 |

Bonner sticking to what he knows
On Friday against the Dallas Mavericks, San Antonio Spurs forward Matt Bonner scored 14 points, 12 of which came from beyond the arch.
According to Fort Worth Stat-Telegram reporter Dwain Price, via his twitter page, Bonner had a funny exchange with Mavs analyst Derek Harper.
"That was funny. Mavs analyst Derek Harper just told Matt Bonner to stop making so many 3's. Bonner said: 'That's the only thing I can do.'"
Yes Bonner, we all know you are a tad bit one-dimensional but admitting it is the first step.
However, that knack for hitting the three-point shot does come in handy. It does spread the court for players such as Tony Parker, Tim Duncan, DeJuan Blair, and Kawhi Leonard to operate.
While Bonner may occasionally drive into the lane, it's a safe bet that he's most comfortable 23.9 feet away from the basket.
But you got to appreciate Bonner's ability to laugh at himself. Now if he can only work on his defense.
Hey, I can dream can't I?

Iran prosecutor: Blogger died in police custody
TEHRAN, Iran (AP) — Iran's state prosecutor confirmed Monday that a jailed blogger died in police custody last week and that wounds were found on his body, the first official confirmation of his death while being held.
The U.S. State Department and a press freedom group have called for investigation of the "suspicious death."
The prosecutor's statement came a day after Iran's parliament announced it would probe reports on the circumstances of Sattar Beheshti's death.
Prosecutor Gholam Hossein Mohseni Ejehi told reporters that Beheshti was detained Oct. 30 for alleged cybercrimes and taken to Evin prison in north Tehran the next day. Beheshti was handed over to cyber police for interrogation the same day, He died Nov. 3.
"The coroner's office has provided a detailed report saying that signs of wounds were found in five places on this person's body, including foot, hand, back and one of his thighs, but no broken bones," the semiofficial Mehr news agency quoted Ejehi as saying.
Ejehi said a final report on the cause of Beheshti's death may take as long as 45 days to release. He said copy of a letter of complaint in Beheshti's name against his interrogator was found.
The semiofficial ISNA news agency quoted Ejehi as saying that Beheshti charged in the letter that he was subject to "threats, insults and beatings."
Ejehi said Iran's judiciary chief, Ayatollah Sadeq Larijani, has ordered a full inquiry into the death.
The government-owned Iran Network news website said three interrogators involved in the case have been arrested. The website, inn.ir, did not provide further details.
The Tehran police chief, Gen. Hossein Sajedinia, also confirmed that Beheshti died while in cyber police custody.

Artist Rutherford Chang Shows Off His Collection of The Beatles' White Albums
Even if somehow you didn't talk about the music (which seems absurd), those late-'60s Beatles albums gave youngsters plenty to digest, while incense burned and brownies were munched. When it showed up in record store bins in the summer of 1967, the cover of Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band was instantly iconic, a psychedelic collage of cut-out celebrity images, rococo shrubbery and lawn ornaments, and four living, costumed Liverpudlians that birthed countless copycats and parodies (the music did that, too). Even today, fix your eyes on any colorful coordinate and you'll probably find something new to ponder for a while. (Brownies still help.)

"Every new & successful example therefore of a perfect separation between ecclesiastical and civil matters, is of importance. And I have no doubt that every new example, will succeed, as every past one has done, in showing that religion & Govt. will both exist in greater purity, the less they are mixed together...source)Regardless, the painting is interesting in that it shows the burden the memory of previous presidents makes on the current president. However, I feel dirty linking to a painter that is extremely misguided. We are teaching the world the great truth that Govts. do better without Kings & Nobles than with them. The merit will be doubled by the other lesson that Religion flourishes in greater purity, without than with the aid of Govt." - letter to Edward Livingston, July 10, 1822 by James Madison ( proceed to the gallery.
This is an interesting oil painting by McNaughton of all the United States Presidents in distress over the treatment of US citizens and the Bill of Rights by the current president, Obama. Click the painting to see zoomable highlights for individual presidents.
Although, the author lightly criticizes President George W Bush, he is obviously biased when he puts Reagan next to the great US presidents, Washington, Lincoln, Jefferson, Madison... What has Reagan done to warrant this worship? Nothing. Reagan was the beginning of the start of a massive rift between the wealthy and the dwindling middle class. See this evidence in picture form. Also, it makes me wonder if the painter stresses Madison because of his role in drafting the constitution or if the painter has an obvious religious agenda and bias. The more I look into his works it is painfully obvious the painter is a Republican Bible Thumper. These types of people are frightening and harmful to society. Soldiers fighting for God??? What is this, Afghanistan? Too bad the painter doesn't realize, Madison was one of the biggest proponents of Separation of Church and State. Religious people in the US are mindless and should pick up a book. Most of them barely even read the bible and when they do they don't even pay attention to it or realize everything in it is a rehash of previous mythology. Ignorance be damned!

"Worst printer I have ever had! I'll never buy HP again."
on by Delynn411Pros None that I could find!
Cons After trying 3 printers - none of them worked. There is nothing that I found good about this printer!
Summary I bought this printer new at the end of May 2012. By the middle of June it stopped working in the middle of printing a photo. This was only my second time printing with it. Just died and nothing worked to turn the power back on.
I contacted HP support and their solution was, "Unplug it, plug it back in. Is is working?" They determined they couldn't help so they sent me a replacement. The replacement turned out to be a used printer! As a replacement for a brand new printer they send a used one.
To make it worse, the used, replacement printer didn't work. This one gave nothing but error messages regarding a missing or defective print head. I installed the print cartridges again using the manual, online troubleshooting and HP techs on the phone. Couldn't get the error message to go way. Their solution, after, "Turn it off, turn it on. Is is working?" ... send another used, replacement.
Third printer arrives and again, I get nothing but an error message indicating the print head is missing or defective. HP troubleshooting says it's probably defective print cartidges. So I go and spend another $100.00 on new cartridges trying to resolve the problem. THAT doesn't work.
I have been trying to deal with HP Support since the whole mess started and they have done abosolutely NOTHING to resolve this matter except send me used, defective replacement printers.
At this point you couldn't PAY ME to own this printer. I have no faith in this product, or any HP product, and their customer service is a joke.
I've repeatedly asked for a refund and all I get is condescending apologies at the start of every email and then no help at all. I was told for weeks that first contact techs were sending this issue on an "escalated, emergency, priority" basis to a Case Manager who would be contacting me.
I never heard from any Case Manager ... ever! There was no attempt by anyone to fix this situation.
I'm returning the printer today And although I have asked several times for them to send me a shipping label to return their defective printer and they have not complied. I'll be disputing the charges on my credit card to get my money back since they refuse to respond to my requests for a refund.
This was the first, and LAST, time I ever buy an HP product. -
"The first printer I've ever bought that I'm happy about"
on by blueOrbitPros Fast, affordable, feature-rich, intuitive.
Cons Large, color print quality.
Summary HISTORY
I finally got frustrated enough with my gigantic Brother MFC6490CW that I decided to replace it. I'd originally abandoned my loyalty to HP printers, and switched to Brother, due to the bloated and intrusive software I had to use with my old OfficeJet 6110. Unfortunately, the Brother had unreliable communications. So it's back to HP.
My wife and I both work from home so we really do need a fast, reliable, affordable, all-in-one type of printer that can work with multiple platforms such as Windows 7, Windows XP, OS X, and iOS. We don't do a lot of photo or color printing so while it's something that's nice to have, it doesn't have to be top notch. If we really need to print a photo we just take the file to Target or Walgreens, and if we need to create pretty, color brochures, we go to Kinko's. This is a productivity oriented printer so if you need perfect color prints, you won't be happy with the results here.
The touchscreen interface is really quite nice; I'm not sure why everyone complains about it. It's not a capacitive touchscreen like your smartphone (I'm guessing it's a resistive touchscreen) so it requires a little more force to activate than your smartphone. This is hardly a big deal. I'm not typing an essay on the thing, I just need it to respond to a few inputs now and then. Because it's a touchscreen, it's able to dynamically change during setup to make setup intuitive. No more guessing which button you need to press to do something. It also has neat little videos that play on the screen during setup to show you how to do something, like install the ink cartridges, or any accessories.
Following the recommendations of online reviews I read, I downloaded the software online rather than use the provided CD. The software installed without a hitch on the Windows machines, found the printer, and was ready to go. The software the Mac almost went in without a hitch, but for some reason the "scan to computer" function wasn't available. I re-ran the setup wizard and it magically appeared.
So once that's all done, you are ready to go. There's a lot of tweaking that you can still do though so if things aren't perfect, don't be disappointed.
The print quality is acceptable. If you want to print photos for framing, don't buy this printer. If you want to print fancy brochures, don't buy this printer. This is an office printer. It's actually in the name, "OfficeJet". If you want a photo printer, HP has a solution for that and they call it "PhotoSmart". Marketing people are so clever aren't they? Anyway, the print quality is good enough for an office environment where you plan on printing document to share with colleagues, clients, or collaborators. Also, this printer is fast, or at least faster than any other printer we've had in the office. The only downside to fast is that you have to keep the output tray extended or your documents will be strewn all over the floor.
The whole HP ePrint thing is new to me so you'll have to forgive me for getting excited about something that might be old hat. My work PC (Windows XP) uses a VPN to connect to HQ and some underlying IT settings mean that once I hook up to the VPN, I can no longer print to my network connected printer, including this one. With HP ePrint, however, I now have a clever workaround now! For one thing, if I'm using Google Chrome as a browser and want to print something from there, I can use Google Cloud Print to send the document to my printer. Setup of the HP ePrint feature is easy and free. Unfortunately if I want to print something like a Word Document, I have to e-mail that document to my printer's e-mail address. This isn't especially difficult, but it means I now have a bunch of large documents cluttering up my SENT folder. The printer can handle most common documents types such as Word, PDF, text, etc... The advantage here is that I can print to the device from any device with e-mail anywhere in the world. Just send the file as an attachment to email@example.com and you're done.
We don't send or receive many faxes so we don't have a dedicated fax line, but when we do need to send or receive a document, it's really nice if it just works. Having to unplug and swap phone cables isn't a lot of fun and we don't have a lot of time to stand next to the printer waiting to see if an incoming call is a fax so we can press the RECEIVE button. Many of the printers we've used before claim to have the ability to intercept incoming fax calls, but we've never had one work right. This is the first exception. Simply tell the printer what your phone/fax configuration and it adjusts its behavior to work. In our case we have an answering machine. The printer listens in on the call after the answering machine answers. If it hears the beep beep beep of an incoming fax, it intercepts the call and receives the fax. We have it setup to just store incoming faxes as a PDF document on our server rather than print them, but you can also have it send the faxes to you as an e-mail.
Scanning is where we had the most pain with our old Brother. The software would work maybe 75% of the time and no amount of troubleshooting could ever change that; it just depended on luck. With the HP, those days seem to be over. Scans, whether initiated from the printer or our workstations, go through without a hitch. The nice part about scanning on this thing is that you have many options about how to handle your scan. When operating the scan from the printer you can send it to your computer, a mapped network drive, an e-mail recipient, or an SD card. You can also specify whether to save the file as a PDF, JPG, or TIFF. You can have an address book stored on the printer for the purposes of e-mail documents, but alas you have to manually enter it; I've not found a way to import an address book.
I'm happy with the printer. The price, features, and quality of print are exactly what we were looking for. The quality of construction and the quality of the software are what I would expect from something in this price range. The printer is a bit large, but again, it's an office printer. Don't buy this for someone living in a dorm room; they will hate you. This printer has restored my faith in HP printers and I'm seriously considering buying a PhotoSmart printer so we can avoid those very occasional trips to Target or Kinko's. -
"'Mediocre,' says it all."
on by Mac2DcorePros Quality is good.
Supports a lot of function.
Scan and filter works well.
Slick design.Cons Long self-diagnosis cycle.
Constant self-diagnosis cycle.
Slow response touch screen.
Paper is wet after printing
Multi-sheet paper fail...often.
Often unresponsive to any stimulus, require unplugging.Summary We purchased this printer from Costco.
This printer is not good if you do a lot of scanning or copying. We have not used it to print from a computer because we use a color laser printer.
When this printer is functioning it is good. The print is good quality. It can scan multiple documents quickly and filter dust and scratches fairly well.
If you should print 20 or 30 documents, a self diagnostic routine kicks in. This means you wait for at least a minute or two. The sheet feeder slowly stops working properly after 6 scans. It starts scanning every other page--ridiculous!
The touch screen has difficulties responding after several months worth of interaction. It becomes more unresponsive. But recently after 7 months, the OS now freezes and require unplugging, the power button will not shut this officejet down. In short this printer is on a very fast decline from the day it is purchased.
Basically, you get a sleek 'emo' printer. Not a good buy. This is one of many HP Officejet we use, and they all are about as bad. If it were up to me I would opt for Epson, Canon or even Brother.
My conclusion: all the high ratings and long reviews are from HP employees or they have not used this printer for excess of 7 months. This printer is made for 20 or less page output and with time in the middle for self-routine cycles. -
"Great but I'm a PC with windows not some exotic OS"
on by email@example.com Setup was a snap, so easy, that I got board while loading software, so I pulled out the quick setup, so to make sure I had done it correctly. I got the premium not the pro (same printer just adds another paper tray, OCR software, and $60 in ink
Cons Large footprint
Summary The price was $399; but staples had an instant $100 off, making it the same price as the Pro,from HP online. then they had a $50 trade in allowance so $249.99, Could have got the pro for $229.99, But for $60 worth of ink and another paper tray, I splurged, checked the price of cartriges < $20 each color, $36 for the extended capacity, Had to check I've been burned in the past, when I found out what it cost to operate my Artisan.
"Unusable on OS X Lion"
on by asoftwaredeveloperPros Low cost of printing; a good set of hardware features.
Cons I can only intermittently scan on OS X Lion; there is no OS X TWAIN driver, so one must use ImageCapture or HP Scan, and not Acrobat Pro; and scanning is limited to 300 ppi when using the document feeder. HP support offers no help.
Summary I recently purchased this printer for use with OS X Lion (10.7), and I'm having a terrible experience with it. To be fair, the hardware seems reasonably good, and the HP Scan software's interface looks better than most manufacturer-supplied applications of its sort. But I have encountered three big problems with the device's scanner that render it pretty much useless to me, and HP support seems determined to give no help:
(1) After scanning a few pages, I always get an error that prevents further scanning for some time. I have taken a number of steps to resolve it, but none had any effect. I described the problem in detail at http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Scanning-Faxing-and-Copying/Scanning-with-HP-OfficeJet-Pro-8600-Plus-on-OS-X-10-7/m-p/1278511#M27683. HP support claims that the error comes from Apple's ImageCapture application, which is not true; it comes from HP's own scanning software, which apparently uses the ImageCapture libraries. In the unlikely event that it's an ImageCapture bug, HP should either work with Apple to address it, work around it, or develop a device driver that doesn't rely on ImageCapture. Or at least they could at least acknowledge the problem.
(2) HP offers no TWAIN driver for use on OS X. As a result, you can only scan using HP Scan or Apple's ImageCapture application. You cannot scan with Acrobat Pro, for instance. I would be surprised if this does not change sometime in the future, but at the moment HP support confirms the limitation and gives no indication of plans to release a TWAIN driver. It seems to me that one should have been able to know this before buying the printer, but I don't think HP mentions it anywhere.
(3) Scanning resolution is limited to 300 ppi when using the document feeder. Again, this is not mentioned in any of the device specifications I've seen. Under "scanner resolution," HP's own specs just say, "Optical: Up to 4800 dpi, Enhanced: Up to 4800 dpi." (I'm not sure if this is a hardware limitation. My guess is that it's not.)
My impression so far is that HP really does not support using the device with OS X Lion. I would be glad to be proven wrong! But I see another review here that suggests I'm not the only Mac user having problems with this device's drivers and getting the runaround from HP support.

SOLON– Bev Noska and Elaine Reynolds have spent a lot of time volunteering together. Enough that one can finish the other's sentence, at least when it comes to discussing their contribution of time and effort. "You get more out of it," Elaine started; "than you can ever give," Bev finished. The two were recognized by the Solon Senior Advocates as Seniors of the Year for 2011, an award given out annually since 2006, for their involvement in the community.
ELY– Many drivers along Ely road have recently been treated to an uncommon sight. Two trumpeter swans have made the wetland pond just south of Ely their new home for the summer. And perhaps, if all goes as planned, forever. The male and female pair was released on May 18 as part of an Iowa Department of Natural Resource (DNR) program to repopulate trumpeter swans in Iowa. Prior to the settlement of Iowa, the bird was common in the state until the 1930s, when the swan population began to diminish. Since 1993 the DNR has been working to repopulate Iowa with trumpeter swans.
SOLON– There will be a kolache, antique and collectible sale Monday, July 4, at Our Lord's Church in Solon. Sale hours will be 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. There are also three spaces available for rent. Two are 20' x 25' and the other is 12' x 25'. Call 319-841-2243 to rent a spot or for more information.
SOLON– Sailors get out the streamers and float your boat on July 4 at 4 p.m. in the Lake Macbride boat parade. Decorate your boat and line up at causeway at 4 p.m. on July 4. Fireworks will be July 4 -rain date is July 9. Donation can be sent to: Fireworks Fund c/o Mark Ramsey, 1598 Spartan Circle, Solon, IA. 52333.
CEDAR RAPIDS– Saturday, July 2, will be Solon night at the Cedar Rapids Kernels. This is an annual tradition and it's a great opportunity for members of the Solon community to gather and support the Cedar Rapids Kernels while enjoying a great night at the ballpark. Solon community members can be involved in on-field contests, pre-game parade of teams, and presentation of the American flag during the national anthem. Plus there will be fireworks after the game!

March 18, 2004
Isle Of Beer, ENGLAND - Ratebeerian rauchbier paid a visit to Belgium last month...
Thursday 4th March
There are many ways of getting to Belgium from London, but by far the most relaxing and satisfying is to take the Eurostar service from Waterloo Station direct to Brussels. If you plan far enough ahead of time you can pick up return tickets for around £60, which also allow you travel to any Belgian station. The journey takes around 2½ hours, giving you time to consume a couple of Duvels to get you in the mood. I passed up on the Belgian beer as I had something far more interesting burning a hole in my backpack. Many years ago I was given a bottle of Courage & Barclay Russian Imperial Stout which I believe came from either the late 1950`s or early 1960`s, so at least 40 years old. I had resisted its temptations many times in the past but finally decided to share it with an old friend (John White) who has organized trips to Belgium for some years. He started his drinking career in the early sixties so it seemed highly appropriate to give him a taste of a beer that he would have been able to try back then.
The beer itself was muddy brown with a little condition and faint head but any fears of deterioration were soon dismissed by the huge liquorice and roast barley aroma. Obviously alcoholic in the mouth, with traces of whisky and oak followed by a very long, lingering, oily liquorice finish. The beer had stood up remarkably well, and I am glad I opened it (as was John).
After a change of trains in Brussels we got to Antwerp around 7pm, dumped our bags at the hotel and headed straight out to the Kulminator café. This bar is widely recognized as one of the finest in Belgium, if not the world. It is relatively small, a coach load would fill it, but a lot of space is taken up by the large cellar filled with aged beers. You could spend a week here, and a lot of money, and still leave many interesting beers for your next visit. Stand out beers of the night were a delightful Westy 12 from 1997, a 1985 Hoegaarden Grand Cru - which was incredibly good - and a bottle of De Dolle Brouwers Speciaal Brouwsel bottled in 1982 to celebrate the brewerys first birthday. This was truly special, and you would sell your soul for more of this nectar, but amazingly it only cost 7 euros. The Kulminator attracts beer lovers from around the world and I seemed to recognize half the people in there. By the end of the weekend I knew the other half.
Friday 5th March
The morning started quietly with a tour around Brouwerij Het Anker in Mechelen in the company of four Wisconsin homebrewers followed by an excellent meal of chicken breast cooked in Gouden Carolus Tripel. The tripel itself was also available on tap and was superbly spicy, one of the best triples Ive tasted. After a quick train ride to Brussels we headed towards the newly opened Delerium Café, which has an enormous list of over 2000 beers from around the world, 600 from Germany alone. Some of the prices for US and UK beers were a little hard to swallow but the German and Belgian beers were attractively priced. The bar itself looks like a former night club but is well situated and is worth a visit just to see the old brewery plaques that line the walls, and of course, to find lots of new beers to rate. Around 5pm we headed off across town to catch a bus to the small village of Lennik a few miles west of Brussels to visit a bar that specialises in lambic and gueuze.
In De Verzekering Tegen De Grote Dorst (the name means Insurance Against The Great Thirst) is a place that few people will have heard of, and even fewer will have visited. Its location in a small village means it wont be on most beer tourists maps and its unusual opening hours make it a difficult place to plan a visit around. It opens when there is a service at the nearby church, i.e. Sunday, and whenever there is a funeral or wedding. It changed hands last year and the new owners started to make a few improvements with the ultimate aim of opening it on a more regular basis. Unfortunately on Christmas morning last year a fire in the bar threatened its continuing survival. Thankfully the damage proved a mere set back and soon more people will be able to visit this truly atmospheric Pajottenland bar.
As a result of a conversation between Jeremy Gray of the Burgundian Babble Belt and the owner of the Grote Dorst, Yves Panneels, it was decided that as a prelude to the ZBF festival in Sint Niklaas a few beer lovers would meet at the bar to show their support for it. The power of the Internet took over and by early February the list of people planning to attend had grown to a point that a beer tent was booked to accommodate the expected numbers and most of the lambic producers intended to have beers available at the event. It was decided by Yves that it should be less about the bar itself, and more a celebration of lambic and gueuze and the people who produce this truly unique style of beer. They had also been through a period of uncertainty after local officials started to express some doubts about the whole lambic brewing process. By the end of February it was clear that this would be a truly special evening. Armand Debelder of 3 Fonteinen would be there in his capacity as chairman of HORAL (the lambic producers association), several well known beer writers and brewers planned to visit and the local press had also expressed an interest in the event. Finally, in early March it was announced that a top level Belgian government minister would also attend.
The night itself was a resounding success, with over 700 people turning up much to the confusion of many locals who had no idea what was going on. Tim Webb (Good Beer Guide to Belgium and Holland) made a speech, as did Yves. Lorenzo Dabove held a wonderful tasting session of all the styles of lambic beers and its derivatives, a film crew captured the event for Belgian television and Mr Hermann De Croo, Minister of State and Chairman of the Belgian federal parliament did indeed attend (with a total lack of any visible security). He later sent a letter to Yves thanking him for the night and stated I have already seen many things in my life, but the fact that a very skilled Italian beer connoisseur praises the beers of the Pajottenland in English to beer lovers from London and Washington, is unique.
The beers on offer were superb with some rarities available, and the local police reported absolutely no trouble (English drinkers have a bad reputation in some parts of Europe, and I think they feared the worst). I met a few fellow Ratebeerians (the three Danes Jacob Lövenlund, Ungstrup, MartinKubert, and FrankenBier from California) and many people from the Burgundian Babble Belt and the Belgianbeer group on Yahoo. Stephen Beaumont and Chuck Cook were also at the event (and the ZBF) so I expect you will hear more about the weekend in the next few months.
Saturday 6th March
We rose early in order to attend the Cantillon open brewing day. Twice a year you can turn up at the brewery, pay 4 euros and spend the day following the process from mashing in, wort boiling and the pitching of the wort into the coolships in the brewery roofspace ready for the lascivious Brussels wild yeast to have its wicked way with the soon to be lambic. Regular tours in a variety of languages guide you through the brewery although you can make your own way around using a handy leaflet. A free coffee and croissant are available if you get there early enough, plus one free drink (the freshly made Faro is superb) is included in the entry price. During our trip around the old brewer Jean-Pierre Van Roy presented John White with a glass of lambic and asked him to see if he could spot which type of barrel it came from. It was passed around all our group (which now included the three Danes) and a guess was made at a Calvados cask, which was wrong as it turned out (Cognac was the correct answer), but the beer was superb anyway. Later we sat around with Lorenzo Dabove in the bar area where you can buy more drinks (one is never enough!). Take away bottles are also available and I picked up 750ml bottles of St Lamvinus, Lou Pepe Gueuze and Lou Pepe Kriek for just 6 euros a bottle.
Jean Pierre reappeared with ten glasses, set them out on the table and proceeded to pour out a mystery gueuze for us to try. After a sip we all professed it to be excellent, and Jean Pierre revealed it to be Loerik, the lazy lambic blend that refused to become a gueuze from 1998. Much scribbling in notebooks ensued. The blend seemed to have started to wake from its slumbers with a gentle effervescence now apparent but still quite subdued.
We left Cantillon at around dinner time to catch a train to Sint Niklaas, the location for the new Zythos Beer Festival which replaces the old Antwerp 24uhr event which for various reasons is no longer held. The ZBF had beers from around 50 Belgian breweries, each with their own (but identically sized) stand. Often the brewer was the person who served you, and every beer cost 1 euro for 150ml regardless of strength or rarity. Beers of note were the new Dolle Brouwers Extra Export Stout which is destined for the US market, Regenboog Naamloos which had the most unusual blend of spices and aromas (like liquid pizza), Le 3 Fourquettes wheat beer from Achouffes new brew pub and the always superb Fantôme beers (if you asked the right questions at the Fantôme stand, Dany would present you with a free bottle of the new BBBrr Fantôme beer!). Dolle Brouwers were also selling another unusual beer. Called Hop Dink it was a 0.2% abv drink made just from hops, and a presumably a small amount of yeast and sugar to bottle condition it. Four different test versions were available, using different types and amounts of hops, ranging from pale green and delicately hoppy to snot green and intensely bitter. One for the hop heads who have to drive.
Whenever beer geeks from around the world gather together a beer trade will be organized and this event was no exception. The Danes excelled themselves with some hard to get Danish brews, and a few interesting US brews that dont get over to Europe also appeared. Inevitably people couldnt wait to try some of these and those sat around them got to try some interesting beers. Many thanks to MattW for sharing a bottle of New Glarus Raspberry Tart, which was world class, and also an interesting taste of the Ommegang Three Pilosophers courtesy of Todd Alström. Yes that one.
Sunday 7th March
Sunday morning I decided to absorb a little Belgian culture by paying a visit to the Musées Royaux des Beaux-Arts in Brussels to see the collection of paintings by Brueghel and Rubens, before heading back to Sint Niklaas to absorb a lot more Belgian Beer at the ZBF. The hardest part about beer festivals is the short time in which to try as many beers as possible whilst still remaining in a fit state to enjoy them. Working in a group with some like minded drinkers certainly helps you try more beers than you would on your own, but one beer soon blurs into another and I was quite relieved when the Danes had to leave early for a visit to Café Joris. This gave me a chance to go back and try some of the more interesting beers I had sampled earlier, and an opportunity for the blood level in my alcohol to rise to a safer level. The festival ran from 10 am to 10 pm on the Sunday so around 9 I headed back to Antwerp. A quick night cap in the centre took me to Het Elfde Gebod in the shadow of the Cathederal. It looks pretty normal from the outside but the interior is decorated almost entirely with old religious statues, which is quite bizarre. The beer list is small but it is worth paying a visit to check out the décor.
Monday 8th March
A mid-afternoon train from Brussels left little opportunity for drinking, but thankfully the Oud Arsenaal in Antwerp opens at 9am so we had a quick beer or two just after breakfast. First on the list was a 1984 Chimay Bleu for only 4.50 euros. Speaking to the barman revealed some cases had been sitting around in a store room at Antwerp docks for nearly twenty years when an export deal fell through and finally someone decided to get rid of the stock. They offered them to a friend of the bar owner who jumped at the opportunity. It had stood up to the rigors of time remarkably well and I suspect that there were few of the original seven cases left at the end of the ZBF weekend judging by the sheer number of people who had tried them. Next I had a Liefmans Odnar which is surprisingly difficult to find at the best of times, and was enjoyable but not spectacular, before finishing off with a 3 Fonteinen Oude Gueuze.
It was then a train back to Brussels for the Eurostar to London, where we had a hotel booked close to Kings Cross. This gave us the opportunity to visit a couple of London bars to finish off the trip. First to the Skinners Arms just round the corner from Kings Cross for a superb pint of Tim Taylors Landlord, then off to The Wenlock Arms to meet SilkTork and Spiesy. We got there a little early and had a couple of pints before realising that Chris_O was sitting next to us. Scribbling notes as he sipped at a beer was a bit of a giveaway! Finally SilkTork and Spiesy rolled through the door, both decked out in fetching flat caps and we had a few more pints. I cracked open a Swedish beer that I had got from the Danes and we had a surreptitious tasting session whilst the landlords back was turned. The Wenlock is a wonderfully atmospheric place with friendly staff and customers but is situated a little off the beaten track. And yes Joris, the toilets are not the greatest in the world, but some Belgian cafés would give them a run for their money. The old urinal outside the Grote Dorst springs immediately to mind.
Tuesday 9th March
Just time before heading back up to Lincolnshire to have a meal in the Founders Arms, a Youngs pub close to Tate Modern with great views across the river Thames of St Pauls and a good selection of Youngs cask ales. Strange then that I chose Youngs Pilsner and a bottle of Light Ale, but they needed to be rated! Finally a trip to the Pitfield Beer shop close to Old Street tube station to stock up on a few more beers to fill the gap until the next trip (Ølfestival in Copenhagen in May)
Finally may I give you a date for your diary: next years Zythos Beer Festival is 5th and 6th of March 2005 in Sint Niklaas, just outside Antwerp. I hope some more of you can make it next year
Many thanks for organising my trip must go to John White http://www.whitebeertravels.com
And also to all those behind making both the Night of the Great Thirst and the Zythos Beer Festival such an overwhelming success. Cheers ................................................................

We all loved him, or loved to hate him. And House MD is one of the most iconic TV shows of the past few years, and Gregory House is definitely one of the most iconic TV characters, played to perfection by Hugh Laurie. He even managed to have several unforgettable quotes we could call House-isms.
And here I am listing them, and also, making several updatabale memes about them. So you can bookmark this page to come back for more images of House-isms memes. I am starting with season one, but will keep on adding until completing season eight. So, make sure to comeback.
(I also added some Cameron-isms, Chase-isms, Foreman-isms, Cuddy-isms, Taub-isms, Wilson-isms, Thirteen-isms since they were all good characters). Continue reading

FARNHAM - At a worship service of installation, the Rev. Laurie Carson became the new pastor at Holy Cross Lutheran Church in Farnham. Officiating at the installation was the Rev. Neil Katterman, Interim Pastor of Holy Trinity Lutheran Church, Buffalo. Also serving was the Rev. Nancy Milleville, Pastor of Crossroads Lutheran Church, Snyder, and dean of the Niagara Frontier Conference of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America. Attendants were the Rev. Rick L. Bair, Pastor of St. Luke Lutheran Church, Ithaca, and University Chaplin at Cornell University the Rev. Terry White, former Holy Cross Vicar, the Rev. Hans Irmer, pastor of Lutheran Parish of the Tonawandas. Special music was performed by the Rev. Tobias Anderson and friends.
Pastor Carson grew up on her family's dairy farm in Bergen, N.Y. Her favorite things are hiking, camping and generally being outside. In college she studied environmental science and education, and worked in that field for several years before becoming a homeschooling mom.
After graduation from the Lutheran Seminary at Gettysburg, Pa., "Pastor Laurie" (as she likes to be called) served at St. John's Lutheran Church in Akron before coming to Holy Cross in 2011 to serve as pastoral leader. Earlier this fall she was unanimously "called." Along with her pastoral duties, Carlson is the advisor to the Lutheran Youth Organization (LYO) of the Upstate New York Synod.

A dinner of welcome was held at the Brant Fire Hall following the installation service. The meal was hosted by the women and children of the church and catered by the congregation.

Nice words, and good start, but until the Pope backs them up with some ´house cleaning´ regarding the cafeteria Catholics,(lib politicians to start) and better enforcement of CC beliefs, he doesn´t have much credibility here. Click Here if you Like this Comment 1 person like this.
#5, this is how he housecleans. He states clearly what the Church teaches, then it is up to each individual to stand with or against him. He will not try to force anyone either in or out; in the same way, Jesus did not force Judas out of the Twelve. Click Here if you Like this Comment
First order of business: stop using the word gender. The correct word is "sex" to describe someone as either male or female.The liberals are changing the language to suit their agenda. Around the mid-1990´s I noticed the first use of the word "gender" in place of "sex." Now it is everywhere.Maleness or femaleness is innate. The use of the word gender follows the liberal disease of creating your own reality to suit your own desires. If today I "self-identify" as being of the male gender and tomorrow I self-identify as being of the female gender, I expect everyone to bow to my whims. For liberals, there is no objective reality, they are god and will decide what is real and what is not.Liberals are nuts. Stop playing their game. Take back the language. Stop using the word gender.

I´m not a Roman Catholic, so I can´t really say who´s one and who´s not, but I do admire this pope (as I admired the last one) and it seems clear to me that he is addressing the issue of ´´cafeteria Catholics´´ by continuing to lay out, in clear language, what RCs should believe about a wide variety of issues. If you claim to be Catholic and disagree, then you deserve to get asked by what authority you are speaking. Most times you´ll hear them say, ´´My conscience,´´ as if conscience were supreme over the Bible and historic doctrine. There will come a time, I believe, when all this will get sorted out. We´ll see where the liberals in every denomination end up then. Click Here if you Like this Comment

mellowkid82 | #91 Subject: The Saga is complete on DVD! Posted: 11/16/2005 16:33:49 |
My saga is now complete on DVD! But when I bought it, I had Episodes I and II in Full Screen format and Episodes III, IV, V, and VI in Widescreen format. So I gave Episodes I and II to my lil bro and spent 40 bucks on Episodes I and II Widescreen on DVD. Does this sound insane?
I also wanna know why Obi-Wan struggled against Darth Tyranus in Episodes II and the beginning of Episode III. Then he doesn't have a hard time fighting Grievous or Anakin later in the film. Yeah, he plays defense almost the whole fight but he finishes him off like nothing. Obi-Wan is still the man though, he's my favorite Jedi. I guess experience beat aggression. |
D | #92 Subject: RE: The Saga is complete on DVD! Posted: 11/17/2005 21:33:29 |
No it's not crazy to get the widescreen versions instead. In my opinion widescreen is much better than fullscreen. Hopefully I'll get Episode III for my birthday (next week). And I doubt the saga is over with on DVD. We're still going to see a DVD box set featuring all 6 films probably next year and George was talking about creating a 3D version of Star Wars.

mellowkid82 | #95 Subject: Luke's training on Dagobah Posted: 02/02/2006 22:13:26 |
Okay when I had a Star Wars party at my house last weekend. My friends and I were watching Episode V, and the part where Luke goes into the cave and "sees" Darth Vader, that would be Yoda using Force Persuade (or the Jedi Mind trick) on Luke, correct?
And Luke failed that test because he drew his lightsaber first and struck first with the intent to kill Vader and gain vengeance for Obi-Wan's "death"? Does this about explain it? |
D | #96 Subject: Thinking about it.... Posted: 02/07/2006 16:11:51 |
It may have been that. I thought that he was being too bold and was only fighting for the Republic when Yoda was trying to teach him the Force.
But that's a good explanation. |

antisony | #100 Subject: 1st, no i didn't c it in IMAX Posted: 07/13/2004 14:06:57 |
2nd, Plo Koon, being the relatively minor character that he is, he probably will just die in a 'splosion

Has anyone besides me ever wondered that if we were born say today we would have been able to actually watch Star Wars from episode 1-6 in sequencial order. I think it will be pretty cool for my future kids(someday eventually I guess) will actually see the story of Star Wars develop in the order the story was designed to unfold. Anybody with me? or am I just crazy?

Select Route:
DescriptionA popular, high-quality route of moderate difficulty. As with neighboring routes, the climb offers pleasant climbing up a large, moderate slab, followed by a superb, steeper headwall. LocationThe route is on the right side of the wall, and begins from a band above the first slabby part of the lower wall. A trail leads up and around to the right of the first slab, providing access to the band. Scramble left on the band to its end. Picadilly, dr gr�en Nils and Herbstwind all begin from this point (there is often a cairn here, but no marking on the rock, and no bolts/pins until somewhat higher up). Picadilly scrambles up and then left on a ramp underneath a steep, black-colored section of rock. Herbstwind ascends the steeper, black-colored face. Dr gr�en Nils bypasses that same face via a ramp to its right. ProtectionThe route is bolted, very well through the more difficult sections, somewhat more spaced on the easier terrain. A small assortment of cams may come in handy.

Jobs. Can you imagine an African-American voting for a candidate who would not defend him/her from employment discrimination? Well, Romney states that nondiscrimination is a state's right, and refuses to endorse the Employment Nondiscrimination Act, which would stop discrimination against the LGBT community. Jobs are an LGBT issue and Romney, by refusing to publicly speak up, is anti-LGBT nondiscrimination.
Economy. When LGBT health, youth and senior organizations receive federal funding to supply needed services to our community, those organizations spend dollars in our community to provide everything from medicine to shelters. That is millions of dollars of LGBT economic empowerment. Romney has offered no economic program for the LGBT community. Economics is an LGBT issue.
Women's health. Most of this campaign has been devoted to women's health issues, and recent studies indicate that lesbian women are more at risk for breast cancer than heterosexual women. One way to combat breast cancer is through mammograms. Romney will cut funding to the largest provider of mammograms in the nation, Planned Parenthood. He has not even spoken word one on LGBT health issues. Women's health is an LGBT issue. Romney, by his silence, is against your health.
Family and childcare. Family values have been an issue in this race. As he sought to become governor of Massachusetts, a state that legalized marriage equality, Romney promised to treat the LGBT community equally. However, Romney refused to allow birth certificates for children of LGBT couples to list both parents. Family and childcare is an LGBT issue. Romney's action was heartless and insensitive to children.
Voting rights. While the Obama administration has championed a host of trans issues, Romney hasn't even uttered the word "transgender." But he does have a record. He supported the new Republican-sponsored voter-registration laws that sprung up in 29 states, many of which would make it almost impossible for a transperson to vote. Voting rights is an LGBT issue.
Public safety. The first job of any president is to secure the safety of all Americans. Romney has opposed the inclusion of sexual orientation and gender identity in hate-crimes laws. Romney does not care about your safety. Public safety is an LGBT issue.
Bullying. While the presidential challenger speaks out against bullying, he has not endorsed a single piece of legislation anywhere in the nation that deals with bullying. And, as a student, he personally bullied a fellow student who was believed to be gay. What did he do? While the other boy was held down by Romney's friends, Romney pulled out scissors and cut his hair. Was it a spur-of-the-moment act, as he has said? How many people walk around with a pair of scissors?
President Obama has done more for LGBT equality than any other president in our nation's history, and than all of the other presidents combined. If you're voting for jobs, vote for the candidate who will not discriminate against you or your community. If you are voting for tax equality, there is only one candidate. If you are voting for public security, there is only one candidate. If you want to vote with your head held high and with pride, there's only one vote: President Barack Obama.
