3.13/5 rDev -15.2%
look: 3.5 | smell: 3 | taste: 3 | feel: 3 | overall: 3.5
A - Pours a light orange with an overly massive head. Patchy lacing left on the glass but that much head is just obnoxious.
S - Malty and earthy with some slight piney notes. Faint citrus scents as well. For an Imperial IPA I would have expected much more of a potent nose.
T - Bitter earthy and piney hops are very prevelant. THere is a nice matly backbone to this which is a bit much for an impreial IPA. There is a certain taste of cut grass to a degree. It's a very odd combination to say the least.
M - Medium bodied with light carbonation. I can even sense a slight alcohol burn.
D - I would think this would be easy to drink but I just didnt really care for this all that much. It was a very big let down for a beer I brought home from my trip to NYC. This made the one case i shipped home over others, and I'm pretty disappointed with it.

3.55/5 rDev -3.8%
look: 3.75 | smell: 3.25 | taste: 3.75 | feel: 3.75 | overall: 3.25
A-orange, ruby, really thick white head, one inch, settles fairly quickly. Moderate lacing.
S-grass/hay, alcohol, raspberries
T-mint, raspberries, blackberries, pine, silver
M-sharp, bitter, wine like in its weight and alcohol.
O- I'm finding this similar to flying dog's single hop El Dorado in the sense that the alcohol and flavor make this orange hop monster something you can enjoy with foods that are otherwise paired with wine. It's also mind boggling to have such a complex bet from a plain 12 oz can, though I guess these cans have already been a staple of some crazy brews.

3.6/5 rDev -2.4%
look: 3.75 | smell: 3.5 | taste: 3.75 | feel: 3.25 | overall: 3.5
Odyssey on-tap pours a honeyed orange amber with a flat cap of foam. Looks alright with that nice drip lacing.
Mostly pine and citrus peels. Orange and grapefruit and some resinous character. A kiss of hemp oil, bitter greens, and raw hop leaf. Malty with some good toasty evidence. Sugars are caramelizing.
Husky bitterness with pine and pink grapefruit leading the charge. Some bitter orange and unripe melon in there, too. Caramel malts with more bitterness from the toast. Some astringency from the acid content. A little rough, but tasty. Booze is above medium for the percentage. Lacks smoothness. Not sure if they were going for such a bitter hop bomb.
Take it or leave it with the others in its company.

2.8/5 rDev -24.1%
look: 3 | smell: 2.25 | taste: 3 | feel: 3.5 | overall: 2.5
On tap at Molly's Irish pub & sports bar in Bethlehem, PA.
A- pours an orange/amber color with a light, white head that dissipates quickly. Some lacing around the glass upon drinking further.
S- not very much on the nose. Some earthy hop aromas and a heavy malt forward profile. Very lacking in this category
T- tastes of bitter hops, biscuit malt, and a slight carbonation. The hops overpower the malt on the front and finish, malt flavor is prevalent just after the initial sip where some sweetness is detected.
M- prickly on the tongue but not overly carbonated. Slick on the tongue.
O- at 8 plus percent abv, there are better imperial IPAs out there that will deliver more flavor and much satisfaction than this brew. Although this brew is not bad, it's not fantastic.

3.48/5 rDev -5.7%
look: 4 | smell: 3.25 | taste: 3.5 | feel: 3.5 | overall: 3.5
Poured from the can into a Spiegelau Dogfish Head IPA glass.
A deep amber orange, slightly cloudy, with some good slow rising pinhead carbonation. Head is a fluffy off white and slightly tan, quite large billowing at four fingers easily. Settles with soapy clumpy retention to match.
Nose has a very obvious sweetness, more sensing of caramel and brown sugar. Some alcohol boozy warmth with a little bit of pine to match. Very low on hop aromas, but hints at big sweetness and sugars of the style.
Palate comes a bit more subdued. A very lingering tea and pine bitter, which grows nicely on the finish, gradually warming with some mint like warmth. Noticeable caramel sweetness but nothing too outrageous. Mild hop bitterness slightly in the mid palate comes off more like a regular IPA than a DIPA.
This isn't particularly awful, in fact it's well constructed but in the realm of the style and the big heavy exciting players it just doesn't stand out much unfortunately.

look: 4 | smell: 3.75 | taste: 3.5 | feel: 3.5 | overall: 3.5
12 oz can poured into a snifter
A- A clear copper color with a three finger white head.
S- Pine, some resin, caramel malts, kind of bland.
T- Big let down, piney/resin finish with some alcohol, some faint citrus hops, sweet malts.
M- Abrasive, medium body, bitterness really lingers.
O- Disappointing, was hoping for more from Sly Fox. Nothing really jumps out at me with this beer. I will just stick with other beers Sly Fox.

Washington, D.C. Travel Guide
A Secret Stay at Washington, D.C.'s Tabard Inn
Built in 1917, this property has all the character of a stay in the country, and, at these rates, you won't believe it's in the heart of the city.
The Tabard Inn was boutique before boutique was boutique―and still is. Nothing cookie-cutter about it. No magnetized keys. No elevators. We're talking hardwood floors; a larger-than-life, fat- bellied Buddha in the lobby; nooks, narrow staircases, and crannies. It enjoys its own style and wears its eclectic identity like a finely tailored shirt, two buttons undone. We'd pay more than $158 a night to stay here. Incredibly we don't have to.
Hotel Amenities
The inn encompasses three former Victorian townhouses, so many of the 40 rooms offer unique layouts. And they're all decorated differently, with one-of-a-kind antiques, lighting, colors, and fabrics. The Tabard has a historic character, but all the bathrooms are modern. Here's one of the catches: You may be schlepping your bags (you have to request bell service) through the restaurant and around tight turns to get to your room. Editor's tip: There is no parking. That's the reality of being tucked down N Street among the brownstones. The Topaz Hotel next door offers overnight valet service ($30), and there are public decks nearby that will cost you between $20 and $25 per day.
We feel insider, plugged in to the scene at the inn's restaurant. It's the kind of place locals bring their out-of-town guests. Despite the constant buzz of conversation and activity, the restaurant's close quarters create a romantic ambience. Editor's tip: For a more private dinner, reserve table 18 if it's just the two of you and table 24 for a four-person party. Chef Paul Pelt changes the menu often, but this season keep an eye out for the cassoulet, suckling pig roulade, braised bison short ribs, and the ever-popular chestnut-and-sweet potato agnolotti (a type of ravioli) with truffles.

The anxiety was palpable during Tuesday night's Chorus of the Keys rehearsal at First Baptist Church.
Under the direction of Don Clause — "Coacher Don" to the chorus' 140 members — the singers belted out Broadway show tunes from their spring concert program, "Broadway's Fabulous Ladies."
From the way Clause paced, one hand curled into a fist and the other gesturing wildly, it was clear the retired real-estate developer and former director of New York City's Big Apple Chorus meant business.
"He's one of the best and most experienced barbershop chorus directors around," says Bob Amer, a tenor in the chorus and the group's marketing director. "He's a taskmaster and he drills us, but he's fun."
The chorus will perform this weekend at Riverview High School's new 1,100-seat performing-arts center, which it hopes will set a precedent for other local performing-arts organizations in need of a venue.
The chorus, which held its annual spring concert at the Van Wezel Performing Arts Hall for years, can no longer afford the Van Wezel's higher rental fees, a fact that many local arts groups have had to face, including the Jazz Club of Sarasota.
"I think we've taken a leadership role by going to Riverview," Amer says. "We're showing how much we love this community and how much we want to remain in this community."
Chorus of the Keys was founded in 1949 by a Boston barbershopper named John Whelan. Its members live up and down the Gulf Coast. Clause lives in The Villages, in Lake County, and drives two hours every Tuesday to rehearsal in downtown Sarasota.
The Barbershop Harmony Society's 2004 and 2009 Florida State Champions, Chorus of the Keys was one of two choruses in the state to qualify this year for the 2010 International Barbershop Convention.
It's been six years since the organization qualified for the worldwide competition, which will be held June 28 to July 4, in Philadelphia. One Voice, the group's breakout competitive chorus, which exists solely to compete in Sunshine District contests and international qualifiers, is hoping to bring home even bigger accolades.
"We're out to make sure we don't come in second to anybody," Amer says.
Conact Heidi Kurpiela at firstname.lastname@example.com.
Sarasota Chorus of the Keys will perform "Broadway's Fabulous Ladies" at 2:30 and 7 p.m. Saturday, March 6 and at 2:30 p.m. Sunday, March 7, at the Riverview High School Performing Arts Center. Also on the bill are performances by the comedic South Florida quartet Hot Shots and the Miami-based foursome Fortissimo, as well as a guest appearance by Soundsations, a Sweet Adeline quartet, singing songs from "The Music Man." For more information, call 484-7589 or visit www.chorusofthekeys.org.

Artist's StatementI make ceramic sculpture which originally developed out of handbuilt vessel forms in torsion (which I also still continue to make). I'm interested in the expressive potential of the relation between different elements in the sculpture. Some involve more or less separate parts, interlocking or interlaced, and sometimes in precarious equilibrium; the most recent involve an opening and spilling out from an internal space. I think about these relationships in terms of fluid metaphors for psychic relationships, internal worlds, personal spaces. Current Work
Reduction fired sculpture in a variety of different stonewares, also smaller pieces, raku or smoke-fired. For exhibition or on commission. 2012 - Raku pottery and sculptural ceramics courses (June - September) - see below right for courses available Technical InformationThe larger sculptural pieces are reduction fired to around 1200-1240 centigrade in a gas kiln. I often use barium glazes for a stony finish, and I may rework the glaze and refire several times. Career BackgroundAs an art historian I taught for 20 years at St.Martin's School of Art (later Central St.Martin's, the University of the Arts London) which involved studio teaching as well as theory. It was in the 1990s after retraining as a psychotherapist that I took up pottery. I moved to France in 2003 to commit myself full time to ceramics.

Porter County Coroner Chuck Harris says a 33-year-old Chesterton man is dead after crashing his motorcycle at approximately 3:30 this morning on County Road 875 North, just east of State Road 149. Portage Police Public Information Officer Sgt. Keith Hughes says the Portage Police Department responded to a report of a reckless driver on a motorcycle, but there was no pursuit involved, and no lights or sirens. Police say the motorcyclist was quite a distance away. Officials say the motorcyclist then went past Porter County officers who were stopped on a traffic stop. Portage Police say when both departments located the motorcyclist, they found he had already crashed, and Harris says the man was pronounced dead at the scene. Update: Porter County Sheriffs Police Public Information Officer Sgt. Larry LaFlower says evidence at the scene indicated that the driver of the motorcycle, identified as 33-year-old Timothy Gajdik of Chesterton, left the south side of the roadway on County Road 875 North east of State Road 149 and struck a tree at a high rate of speed. Police continue to investigate.

I have several items of furniture that I intend to stain. The first two are dressers made of wood which are presently painted. I would like to stain both of them a warm chocolatey brown and then varnish them to protect them. I would like to know what steps I should follow to do this: What is best to remove the paint? Do I need to sand them before staining them? Do I need to identify the wood before purchasing the stain? What are the best methods of staining? What type of varnish do I need?
The other item I would like to stain is an antique rocking chair made of elm which has always kept it's original colour but has been kept in shape with beeswax. I would like to also stain this chair a warm brown, but afterwards is it possible for me to apply beeswax to protect it? I was told that a varnish may possibly be too harsh for this type of wood. Thanks in advance for all of those who answer with advice! :)
Jacobean by MinWax is really nice. It is not water-based though!
Have you found a nice chocolate stain you like? What's it called? I've been looking for a nice dark chocolate stain, but can't find one I like.
I've done some refinishing with stain and varnish. It is a lot of fun, but a lot of work. As with any project, it is thorough preparation that will give you good results.
Wherever you can buy paint and stain products, you will find good pamphlets with instructions, so make good use of those and ask a lot of questions in those stores.
I personally do not like to use toxic chemicals for stripping and have only used 3M Safe Stripper with very good results. Check them all out and decide which you want to use. You must be careful to follow all saftey measures. It is very, very messy also, so you may want to consider using a professional furniture stripping service.
Until you get the old paint off, you will not know what you have. If the wood is attractive, then go ahead and stain. If it looks bad, then you may want to repaint. Again, the stains and varnishes I use are water-based and work extremely well and are much safer and easier to use than the oil-based products.
Try the stain first on an inconspicuous place of the piece to see what it will look like. If different woods have been used to build the piece, you may not get even colour. This is simply due to the nature and base colour of wood.
Yes, you must sand after stripping. Wood is an organic product and the grain is raised during the refinishing process. I would start with maybe 120 grit, then go to 180 maybe (I'm no expert, but I read a lot and take tips from the pros). Use a much higher (finer) grit after staining and after each coat of varnish (very light sanding). After each sanding, you must use tack cloth to remove all dust particles.
When varnishing, be sure to have as little dust as possible flying around, or it will just make a mess of your finish. The higher quality products for the DIY crowd are Min Wax, Flecto and Benjamin Moore.
Yes, it is a lot of work, but you will amaze yourself with your handiwork and will want to stain and varnish the whole house!

The company expects earnings to remain grim, lowering its sales forecast for the fiscal year through March 2010 to 1.5 trillion yen ($16.7 billion) from 1.8 trillion yen ($20 billion). Nintendo blames its weak outlook on the recent Wii price cut, a lack of blockbuster games, as well as a strong yen, which hurts Japanese exporters by reducing their overseas earnings.
Nintendo has faced some stiff competition lately, with Sony and Microsoft both lowering prices on their consoles. The PlayStation 3 topped September sales charts after Sony introduced the $300 120GB Slim model, and the 120GB Xbox 360 Elite was cut to $300 as well. Microsoft also has a $200 Xbox 360 Arcade unit, which is about the same cost of Nintendo's Wii.

Got something to say? Post a comment-
Amazing how quickly things can turn around. Not long ago, Nintendo was at the top, selling the most consoles and games.
I have thought that this inevitable decline in the Nintendo Wii has been very long in coming. When the Wii first came out it was awesome, it's control structure unheard of and it had some interesting games that took advantage of that system.
However, to me, the Wii has become pretty stagnant over the last several months and this drop in sales is definitely not a surprise to me, especially with all the price cuts on the Xbox and ps3.
Mm... how the mighty fall bit by bit . Nintendo will need a miracle at this point
The decline doesn't surprise me at all... Wii captured the imaginations of a ton of people, many in demographics like "new to console gaming " or ones you would never think of as gamers. But there is only so much of that type of demographic to go around, and that big boom of sales has dropped, as sales of other consoles with a bit more meat to them is on the rise. Pricing is part of it, titles and continued content is part of it, but other factors (like economy and time of year) play big parts in it. If people are having to choose between buying a Wii now, or waiting a few months to get it as a nice holidays present, guess which will usually win out in a tight economic environment? Well, as long as the consumer has a smidgen of willpower
Well, what a surprise...
Now they could start making or at least help developers make good games instead of just riding the hype. There are like 3 or 4 good games for the Wii. A laughable number considering that the Wii is around for THREE years now.
The idea behind the console was good and so were the first months after its release, but once the hype was over and there were no good games coming, it turned into a big failure imo.
(i own a wii...)
Nintendo is resuming it's normal 3rd place role in gaming consoles behind XBox and PS2/3 as part of the "natural order."
Let's face it, the Wii was a novelty - and a very clever novelty, especially for bringing in non-gamers. But you're either a full-time, serious gamer or you're not. And once that novelty wore off, the non-gamers walked away whereas serious gamers are still on the PC, XBox and PS2/3. Plus cutsie Pokeman-like kid games only go so far and that's what the bulk of Wii games are.
Like other posters, this doesn't surprise me in the slightest.
Anyone could see it coming... the only good games for Wii are the ones made by Nintendo itself, maybe one or two from other companies, but the majority are from Nintendo... Anyways, I think they should start designing a new 2nd version for the Wii, personally, I would like revamped graphics and a hard drive...
I figured this would happen at some point. It's not really surprising. I think Sony and Microsoft have been doing more to better their systems than Nintendo. That being said, I don't think Nintendo is in trouble necessarily. They could turn things around again if they play their cards right.
Nitendo already has sold 50 million plus consoles which is a huge profit, eventually they had to stop selling so much, i think it's the ps3 price dropped that's taking away a lot of sales since there profit has rose 300%.
Nintendo has lost plenty of ground lately ... even if wii is $50 cheaper there hasn't been any good title recently :S
I think it's about time the Wii stops selling as much as it has, I mean eventually everyone has to have one of them.... And with Sony's only recent smart decision, the new PS3Slim, stealing all the market share it may finally be time for the Playstation to shine again.
Poor Nintendo... they've only made Billions and billions of dollars of there sad little Gimmick.
From the hardware there using they could sell the thing for $89 and still be making good money, and then it might be a value for the user buying it.
Looking at EBgames most of the new games cost $50!? I mean $50 for games that are of Classic XBOX quality. If they were $25~35 you'd have value.
My issue with Nintendo is there making low-end stuff and selling it for High-end Prices.
I personal wished people were still making games for the GAMECUBE like they are the PS2. I've spent many a thousand hours on my GC. Which I picked up for under $100 and all my games bought used for under $15 expect PSO bought new for $30. Now that was value. $240 in games + $100 for the system +$30 in memory cards = $370 for around 3,500~4,000hrs of game play and counting.
A Wii still cost $200 and $50 a game or $35 for the good used games. so even buying used games for the same I have in my GC i'd get 1xSystem and 4 Games, and a memory card.
GC: 1x system 2x controller 6x Memory cards and 16x games
Wii: 1x system 1x controller 1x memory card and 4x games
Seems like paying a lot more for a gimmick.
Any of the good Wii games could have easily been made for the GC "Zelda Princess of darkeners" even had a GC version it was just really rare.
For every body wondering GC price droped to $99 on September 24, 2003 just a couple days past 2 years from it's (September 14, 2001) release date.
The Wii is still $200 and its been on the market for (November 19, 2006) 3 years next month.
Wii day 1 price $250 Year 1 price $250 year 3 price $200
GC day 1 price $200 Year 1 price $150 year 3 price $100
So that's just trend any body knows hardware dramatically gets cheaper every year. PS3 $600 vs todays $300. So all I'm saying is Nintendo has made a ton of money for selling outdated hardware, using outdated light gun technology (In the in box Wii motes, they do offer an upgrade to make it better Wii? MotionPlus for $25 more. Which strikes me as irritating it would be like Sony selling a cheap PS3 pad with there system and making you buy your first 6 axis.)
I'm not even saying the Wii is a bad system, just a bad value for the money.
I remember the first Demo Nintendo put out for the "Revolution" it showed a head mounted display and a head motion tracking version of Metroid prime. I was excited as all get out for the Rev... up tell they finally showed there controllers and system specs.... I was expecting X360 hardware with the visuals they were promising, and we get 2xGC worth at best.
I'd hope Nintendo dose better next round for the real gamer and not just target the causal gamer, but I debt it. My money's on Microsoft.
about time the WII starts to sell worse, I literally have no clue how it was so successful, when everyone you talk to who has a wii got bored of it very quickly, only good game it had was mario series
I knew it wouldn't last. The Wii craze was just a fad among non-gamers.
I seem to remember they are all losing money on these devices.
Tonylukac, it was said that Nintendo could manufacture the Wii for about 180, and they sold at 249. So, not including research and software development, the product could have been profitable shortly after launch. A Nintendo spokes person had said that with this price point they were able to lower the cost to license their software, which allows them to charge $49 and not $59 for software titles like Sony or Microsoft does.
With any luck, Nintendo will capitalize on the large install base that they now have and not let the fans down.
I own all three systems (kids play with the wii and 360 the most), I use the 360 and the ps3 (like them both equally)...the point is... the following comments are not 'wii fanboy' based.
Based on most of the comments, it seems that most people are considering the Wii to be 'washed up'...and it's about time that they're not doing as well as PS3 / xb 360.
The reality is...Nintendo is the only one that is making any serious money. Both MS and Sony are LOSing money with their systems. And even with the sales slowdown, check out the sales charts, and you'll see that the Wii is CURRENTLY selling almost double (globally) what the PS3 is selling, and more than double what the xbox 360 is selling.
For the facts, check out http://news.vgchartz.com/news.php?id=5707
You'll see that the wii sold 390K units last week, which is 9% lower than last year at the same time. BUT the xbox 360 only sold 138K units...down 35% from same time last year, and the PS3 sold 220K units (down 31% from last year). The ps3 numbers reflect recent price reduction and introduction of uncharted 2, and have already dropped from week prior (-6%).
As many have pointed out, it was unrealistic to expect the Wii to continue selling at the stratosphere numbers they've been selling at for the past 3 years. So, they've had a reduction...it's still double what the other units are selling (even with all the crappy games for the wii).
The good thing is that MS and Sony have learned some things about being innovative, and I'm optimistic that all three hardware providers will try to outdo each other with the next generation. I'm looking forward to the next generation of advanced interactive adapters/controllers.
We're all winners in having these companies compete so aggressively for our attention. So, those that are looking for the Wii to fail.....don't hold your breath...it won't happen any time soon!...and that, is a fact!
My mate has had a Wii since release, and being the nintendo fan boy he is, felt the need to get the stand, speakers etc etc.
But even he admits that it is a failure of a console. The only game we have played consistently since it's release is Super Smash Bros Melee (or whatever it's called) and Wii Sports. All the good games for the Wii seem very...child oriented, which when you look at other games platforms, might not be a bad thing as they seem to be lacking in kid friendly games. Though the failure of the Wii shows that young adults are where the money is in games and they seem to buy guns, cars and blood.
When the Wii was first announced I was taken in by the new controller hype, but nothing has emerged. Yea, they've brought out the new "better" Wii mote, but no games developers seem to be exploiting the controll system, there has to be more that can be done with the Wiimote and the balance board than yoga, tennis and sword fighting...
The Wii fad had to end sooner or later. It was innovative, but just too underpowered to have the longevity and breadth of games of an Xbox 360 or PS3. And next year, everyone's going to have motion sensing controller support. Time for Nintendo to come up something new.
New Super Mario Brothers Wii is going to get a ton of sales, it comes out Nov 15th. Haven't seen a gameplay video yet, but have seen stills and a review on gamespy of it. Looks pretty sweet.
I've got my tiny violin ready for Nintendo...I haven't used my Wii console in months, and don't really intend to until Mario Galaxy 2 or Epic Mickey. Love the increased amount of comments on the sire btw
I think everyone that everyone who wanted to get a wii already has one, and now only the people who say "Hm well, I can afford, so why not?" and buy it. But I'm sure more sales will come with Holidays approaching.
Awwwww. Nintendo made a lower PROFIT (Still a profit) after months of killing it with their overpriced hardware.
And then there's news like this.
For the facts, check out http://news.vgchartz.com/news.php?id=5707You'll see that the wii sold 390K units last week, which is 9% lower than last year at the same time. BUT the xbox 360 only sold 138K units...down 35% from same time last year, and the PS3 sold 220K units (down 31% from last year). The ps3 numbers reflect recent price reduction and introduction of uncharted 2, and have already dropped from week prior (-6%).
The problem is that most people who want a Wii and DS now have one so they cant expect to keep getting the same amount of sales! The other problem is there isnt that many serious games you can play on the Wii so they cant be selling a massive amount of games either!
my daughter keeps her Wii in the closet between a tickle me Elmo and a furby
Like many others my Wii has largely set unused since i've had it last christmas. It was awesome at first, but my interest in it fell off quickly. There are some games I want out, like the new tiger woods...but its just not worth the money when i know it will sit unused after a month or less.
Wii has some cool games but all serious gamers couldn't stand that it was just barely more powerful than a GameCube. Bring on the next gen Nintendo system and this time make it current tech.
This doesn't surprise me. I know families struggling to keep food on the table and the lights on. They aren't out buying Wii's or any other gaming systems right now.
I suspect card games, board games and video games for older gaming systems to be bigger sellers this season.
When the Wii came out, it immidiately reminded me of the failship known as the Power Glove. To top that off, lots of hit games like Batman Arkham Asylum & Ghostbusters & an ungodly amount of others came out on PC, possibly Mac, & every console BUT Wii, so...saw it coming.
I think the Hype with the motion sensing controller is finally levelling off now. ;P
I've probably started a riot saying that now XD
As the cost of the XBOX and PS3 declines I think people will choose the better graphics over the game cube ( I mean WII ) .. Sony probably has had the most direct influence over this with there price cut ..
With the onset of Christmas shopping and some cleaverly bundled packages Nintendo could get some of the sales back.
The console always proves a great piece of entertainment at ours when there's a gathering of different generations. After all this is the way it's been advertised. I've never really considered it as an out and out games console for you to sit infront of in a darkened room, killing hordes of renagade soliders.
"Weak sales" and "grim earnings"? I'm not so sure Nintendo is doing as badly as the article states it is. The Wii is still outselling the other consoles by a large margin.

The Plymouth Restaurant is a passable Diner, with the best roof-deck in The Loop - open year round. This quiet spot is the perfect place to unwind over good bar food and cocktails before heading further north for the night. The roof-deck at The Plymouth sits at eye level with the Jackson Blue Line stop, and has the best view of the Chicago Public Library you'll ever get.

The oxford is the most classically cool and versatile of all fall/winter casual shirts; you should definitely own a few.
Oxford shirts are generally made of thicker cloth and are meant to be washed, tumble dried and worn with some relaxed swagger. They go great with corduroys, cardigans, brogues, dark blue jeans and heavier, "country" style blazers and suits. More of a whiskey shirt than a martini shirt, you can wear them untucked so long as you don't have a jacket on.
Always buy an oxford shirt with a button-down collar. Some brands make oxfords with semi-spread collars, but frankly I think the look is wack.
For an entry-level oxford, I recommend Uniqlo's long-sleeve model. It comes in a nice mini rainbow of colors (such as salmon, lilac and canary) and wears well after a few washes. It is so reasonably priced that you can afford to buy three or four at once and be set for the season. This is a superior product for a mass-market brand, so stock up and maybe explore some funky new shades besides blue.
For the heads out there who want to really own the look, be sure to get something with a nice soft collar. If you want to know and feel the difference between a $30 oxford and something with a bit more refinement, you should touch the fabric on the collar. A well-made shirt will have a lot of give and bounce to it; avoid a cardboard feel.
Unlike a dress shirt, which should be firm and pressed, an oxford shirt's collar needs to be somewhat slouchy and chilled out. A Brooks Brothers slim fit model (the wonderful, utilitarian Budweiser of modern oxford shirts) has a beautiful roll to it that many say can't be replicated. Be sure to get the slim fit model, as Brooks' standard OG cut is very, very generous and probably not the look you are going for unless you are 56 and running for Congress.
As with any shirt, you don't want to rock this too tightly on some pizza bro hipster shit. It's really easy to take in the sides and sleeves if the next size up fits nicely across your chest and shoulders. If that's too much work, just find a brand you like and buy a few.

The agony and the ecstasy spawned by the current redistricting dustup on the Beaumont City Council is an unfortunate turn of events that didn't have to happen – but it did.
The story of a Groves family who turned to friends and strangers to help their diabetic son live a better life has taken an unexpected turn. The saga began when Ryan and Tara McLeod heard about service dogs who could detect if their young son Racer, who has Type 1 Diabetes, has blood sugar that's too high or too low.
While America may have embraced the idea that we welcome "your tired, your poor, your huddled masses yearning to breathe free," history has taught that no segment of the population has been given "inalienable" rights unless they were willing to fight for them. Likewise, the struggle for commensurate pay has long been a bone of contention between those in power and those who just want to be treated fairly.
Beaumont/Port Arthur
While we harbor no disrespect for the Wall Street Journal who called us "that scrappy little paper from Southeast Texas," we prefer to think of ourselves as simple seekers of the truth. We're of the opinion that headlines and sound bites never tell the whole story. Our readers demand all the facts, facets and flavors of every story or event. And, they expect to be informed, educated and stirred to action.

The Lakers started the season 0-3 for the first time since 1978-79 and needed a win to "shut up" its critics. Beyond having Kobe Bryant, Dwight Howard, Pau Gasol, etc. to put people at ease, extremely lucky for LA, a far and away less talented team also struggling to start the season was in town Sunday night to lend a helping hand in righting the ship. The Lakers took what was given to them -- lots of turnovers, rebounds and points -- and dominated.
Save for a spirited 21-6 stretch by the Pistons' bench that scared Mike Brown into subbing Kobe, Howard and Gasol back into the game when the Lakers' lead was trimmed to, um, 24 with about 10 minutes left in the fourth (DLN!), it was all Lakers.
Lawrence Frank made a statement by benching the Pistons' starters all at once with about 5 minutes left in the third quarter and they sat, just as useless, for the rest of the game. Rodney Stuckey, who is now 1 for 23 to start the season, combined with Brandon Knight to shoot 1 for 14.
Jonas Jerebko, admirably so, never stopped playing hard and led the Pistons with 18 points.
The Pistons are now 0-3 to start the season for the third year in a row.

The Coldest Star In The Universe Goes To...
WD 0806-661 B, a brown dwarf (artist's rendition, lower right) orbiting a white dwarf (interracial orbiting FTW!) some 75-light years from earth. Shit, pack a picnic and let's go! "GW? You don't actually know how far a light-year is, do you?" OVER 1,000 WATTS! Extra mayo on my sandwich BTW.
The American scientists looked at the age of the white dwarf in the WD 0806-661 system, and came up with a figure of about 1.5 billion years. They then estimated the mass of the companion, and used the data from Spitzer [the space telescope, not the gubernatorial whore-monger], which sees in the infrared part of the spectrum.
From that, they got a temperature of about 300 degrees Kelvin, or 27 degrees C (~81 ºF), or about the average daytime temperature of Washington, D.C. in June. If confirmed it would be the coldest brown dwarf ever discovered. An average star has a surface temperature measured in the thousands of degrees -- the Sun's surface temperature is 5,500 degrees C.
Speaking of brown dwarfs, I drove to Tijuana once with a couple buddies and we ended up in this backalley sex-circus where they had a-- *phone ringing* Don't tell that one? Woopsie doopsie. Never been to Mexico, heard it's beautiful.

DEAR LIBERTY OR MARYLAND WILL BE FREE. Tune. - Carry me back to Old Virginny. By Miss R. L., a Daughter of Dixie. Farewell, dear Liberty, farewell for awhile, E're long we'll greet thee again; To bear with oppression, and in God put our trust, And the Sons of our home will proclaim All is now well again; And Maryland is free - The chains of Liberty is unbound, We'll cast our destiny. The siege of oppression is now near an end, The usurpers are men of our homes; The vilest of wretches that infest our soil, To make laws to predict our doom. All will be well again, &c. The loved ones in battle will return to their homes, To be cherished by them that are dear; Our Fathers now in prison will partake of the feast, And I am sure they'll have nothing to fear. All will be well again, &c. In silence and peace we'll repair to the box, There to make known our doom; And then we'll proclaim to the world in one voice, The South is forever our home.All is now well again, &c. The grottoes, the rivers, the hills, and the plains, Will abound with mirth and great glee; And the love of our Country forever is dear, Where the heart of her people are free. All is now well again, &c.

I'm not interested in which fragrance you like the smell of more, I'm curious about the projection and silage you get in the winter time.
Which of these two CREEDs do you prefer in the cold air?
Personally neither (all year-round), but if I had to choose one it would most likely be Aventus.
Current Top Favorites:
1) Portrait of a Lady (EdP Frédéric Malle)
2) Giorgio for Men vintage (Giorgio Beverly Hills)
3) Dia Man vintage edt (Amouage)
4) Les Nombres d'Or Vetyver (Mona di Orio) - tie
4) Lalfeorosa (O'driù) - tie
6) Anat Fritz Original Formula and Classical (Anat Fritz)
7) Captain vintage (Molyneux)
8) Tzora (Anat Fritz)
But...it depends on where you are going to be. If indoors mostly, then it does not matter which you wear. If mostly outdoors, then def Aventus.
Keep Smelling Good

I'd mostly say Aventus, but really, what you should do is spray your left wrist with one and your right with the other. Give it a few hours and your nose will know. When in doubt, this method has never failed me.
"Follow your nose. It always knows." -- Toucan Sam
Both of them IMO are fine during any season.
For me, SMW has a cold quality about it that lends itself to colder weather. Himalaya too.
Life's a bitch. If it were a slut it'd be easy.

News Release
Friday, February 19, 2010
Media contact: Karen Parker, 386-758-0525
When Suwannee River floodwaters at Wilcox rose above 9 feet Friday, the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC) activated boating restrictions on Zone 4.
This section is from the County Road 340 Bridge at Rock Bluff to one mile below the Fowler Bluff Boat Ramp. This 51-mile segment will be an idle-speed, no-wake zone as long as the Suwannee is at 9 feet or more above mean sea level, as indicated on the Wilcox gauge, where flood stage is 11 feet.
Boating restrictions on two other zones have already been activated. Zone 5, a 32-mile segment from River Rise in O'Leno State Park west to the confluence of the Suwannee River, was activated Jan. 29, when the Santa Fe River reached 17 feet on the Three Rivers gauge, where flood stage is 19 feet. That zone remains in effect. Water in the Suwannee River rose to 24.05 feet at Branford Monday, so Zone 3, from Little River Spring to the CR 340 Bridge at Rock Bluff, was activated. This 23-mile segment will be an idle-speed, no-wake zone as long as the Suwannee River is at 24 feet or more, as indicated on the Branford gauge. It's also still in effect.
"FWC officers are patrolling swollen rivers to ensure boaters comply with the idle-speed, no-wake rule," said Capt. Roy Brown, area supervisor at the FWC's Lake City office. "The FWC encourages boaters to stay off the Suwannee-Santa Fe river system until conditions improve."
An idle-speed, no-wake zone means a vessel must proceed at a speed no greater than what is required to maintain steerageway and headway. At no time is any vessel required to proceed so slowly that the operator is unable to control it or anything it may be towing.
The Suwannee and Santa Fe rivers are divided into five flood zones. The two remaining zones that aren't restricted are:
For more information about the flood zones, please call 386-758-0525. To report violations, please call 888-404-3922.
