Long overdue that I tried this before it went off tap
Dark brown with a tan head. Ruby in the light, but still opaque. The head dissolves rather quickly, but was approximately 1-2cm before doing so. The beer is well carbonated and has a dense complexion. I am intrigued and avidly await it's smell and taste.
Hoppy aroma, definitely a stronger porter,but a balancing sweetness comes through nicely. I am reminded of fresh cut grass by the hops. Similar to other strong porters I have smelled, the hops are less citrus than they are bitter. A warmer serving temperature would help to bring these flavors out more.
Tastes great, it's a calm, balanced porter that doesn't jerk around while driving your senses. I would say the hops provide a nice bitter to mix with the sweetness of the malt backbone. The carbonation helps bring out a subtle bite from the hops infusion + 8.3mL EtOH/100mL alcohol by volume.
Relieves the stress nicely from a rigorous week of exams.
Tangy, bitter, plentiful in calories, and a deep-down bad ass. I am familiar with this style and commend the creators for their porter interpretation. The beer is very smooth drinking and i would assert that there was careful ingredient selection (if there wasn't... eff you longtrail, you still made a good beer). I let the beer sit after filling (without opening of course) for the better half of a week (something I would not recommend), but the carbonation still came through strongly.
I could easily drink this growler by myself, but 2 pints will do the trick. I submit to you that you will enjoy drinking this brew (as many others have), however, you may also particularly enjoy its very affordable price tag. I have certainly paid more for a beer of this caliber and my tender wallet thanks me for not letting it take another beating. Jump into beers of this caliber and you will enjoy the smooth dark bitterness that they have to offer.

look: 5 | smell: 4 | taste: 4.5 | feel: 4.5 | overall: 5
A majestic tan head that stays forever leaving thick lacing and a shaving cream covering. A dark root beer liquid that is quite clear with no carbonation evident.
Smell is rich with chocolate, coffee, toffee and caramel. Delicious roasted malts and yeasty fruit esters.
Taste is more choco-coffee. A really good blend of it. Sweet caramel malt flavors combine with the breadier malt notes and give a satisfying and hearty taste. A hint of the alcohol in there somewhere but it is basically hidden. so well as to be invisible. A mild and expert hopping leave a somewhat longish and chewy finish with coffee and a light lactic sourness. A slight warming. Feel is silky and finely carbonated. Just enough weight for a cold winter's night.
This goes down like a superb regular porter. Drinkability is off the charts!
Got this 32 oz growler from DeCicco's last month and kept it cellared. This keeps beautifully so if you see it score immediately! I only wish I had another for the cold nights ahead.

This is a 2011 Vintage.
The beer comes in an almost black color with a mocha head.
The aroma has some soy umami, a lightly roasted malt, and chocolate.
The flavor follows with chocolate, some coffee, a good amount of soy and roasted malt. A well balanced creamy porter flavor with a medium to full smooth mouthfeel.
A well done and balanced imperial porter.

2011 vintage bomber, bottled 092111.
8.3% ABV is well balanced and well hidden making this a winter beer that's frighteningly easy to drink. Pours a dark mahogany colour with ruby at the edges of the glass. The respectable coffee-coloured head leaves an impressive amount of lacing, despite its own short life. Aroma of roasted dark malts with underlying vinous barrel tannins. Not certain how much of that rawness is age, or even if it's perhaps mellowed out, but the barrel overtakes the coffee and chocolate tones that also become more pronounced as it warms. Flavour has a nice balance of sweet and bitter, with dark chocolate the presiding note in the finish. The creaminess in the mouthfeel is muted, but still a fulsome beer to drink. Glad to be sharing this bomber, but will look to pick up more when I can.

A - Dark brown almost black with a sight tan head. Good lacing on the glass(note: I poured this into a goblet)
S - The smell is slightly sweet and toasted.
T - Very flavorful, I am getting a mildly smoky chocolate taste along with what seems to be a toasted malt. Not bitter at all to me, but I did have an IPA a little earlier so that may be effecting my taste buds a bit.
M - Very smooth with a mild carbonation.
O - I would say Long Trail nailed it here. It is a porter in every sense of the word. I will definitely be picking up another bottle of this, especially since I tend to lean more towards porters in the winter,

look: 3 | smell: 3.5 | taste: 2.75 | feel: 3.5 | overall: 3
Not sure of the release schedule of these, but the bottle had vintage 2011 on it. Got to enjoy a little of that classic porter "fall down" into the pint glass, and caught a solid whiff of some chocolate and only the very tiniest smoked smell. It was so faint I may have actually been dreaming it from wanting to smell more of it. The taste, however, was nothing like it smelled or looked. It was a pretty thin beer, and completely poundable for an imperial. What I really got as a dominant flavor was hops. Not powerful hops, mind you, just the most prevalent flavor. I didn't get very much at all of the classic porter flavors in this, and as a result, I'd rather just have this as a session brew. Good flavor at the price point, but for 8.3%, it didn't give a slow, satisfying glass of beer.

3.23/5 rDev -20.8%
look: 4.5 | smell: 4 | taste: 3 | feel: 2.5 | overall: 3
Appearance- dark black and very cloudy and murky, very nice tan thick foam head about half inch plus thick, very beautiful off the pour,
Smell- very nice espresso really overall dominates the first whiffs, slight bitter hops, but alot of coffee notes overall
Taste- A decent amount of burnt malts and coffee and espresso really dominate the flavor, the overall flavor is a little light but still decently nice, the finish is pleasantly coffee like more then anything else, slightly bitter hop finish which does check out the coffee a bit
Mouthfeel- Overall the mouth feel is a bit lighter then I would of liked, its almost a feeling of a tad watered own considering the alcohol, very light
Drinkability- This beer is not bad by any means but it just really lacks a lot of the complexity I would expect in such a big bear, Its very one dimensional and almost over the top in certain aspects, its not a bad beer but certainly nothing overall y great either.

look: 4 | smell: 3.75 | taste: 4.25 | feel: 3.75 | overall: 4.25
A: The beer is jet black in color and poured with a finger high dense tan head that died down, leaving a thin film of lacing covering the surface and a ring of large bubbles around the edge of the glass.
S: There are light to moderate aromas of roasted malts in the nose along with some hints of coffee beans.
T: Flavors of dark roasted malts dominate the overall taste, which also has just about a moderate amount of bitterness from the underlying hops. Hints of chocolate malts are also detectable.
M: It feels nearly medium-bodied on the palate and has a moderate amount of carbonation.
O: This beer packs in lots of roasted malt flavors but is very drinkable and hides any traces of alcohol exceptionally well.

A 2011 Vintage
A: A very dark brown with a deep ruby hue. The is long last but thin, forming a thin creamy cap of tan bubbles.
S: A rich dark fruit aroma of prunes, figs and raisins. How did a some citrus hops stay in there after a year and a half? There are light cocoa and coffee aroma with a moderate, soft alcohol note.
T: Coffee and chocolate dominate at a moderate strength backed by the alcohol and a moderate hops bitterness. The fruit comes out about mid-taste through to the aftertaste having flavors of figs and prunes accented by a very-light lemon hops flavor. While there is a light malt sweetness the balance is moderately bitter with an off-dry finish. Besides the fruit the aftertaste also has some dark malt dryness and some coffee flavors. There is a little harshness on the finish like too much hops where used to bitter the beer.
M: A medium-full bodied with moderate carbonation. Creamy with a light alcohol warmth.
O: I like the hops bitterness and the fruit character but on the whole it lacks balance. Some more malt character might help round it out. From the aggressive hops loving side of my brain I think I'll look for some of this fresh, I'm thinking it'll be pretty good like a Black IPA gone a bit to heavy with the malt.

A-Pours quite near black. Thin, creamy tan head. Leaves plenty of lace.
S-A very well put-together aroma. There isn't really anything incredibly unique or memorable about the flavor except for the fact that it just smells 'right'. A big, roast, chocolatey and slightly chalky nose.
T-The flavor is even better. Fudgy chocolate and light chalk with more than enough roasted coffee to keep me entertained. A slight burnt quality and even a lingering hop-derived bitterness in the finish.
M-Drinkable for its size. A bit creamy in the feel. Full bodied and rich.
O/D-Better than I thought it would be. Very, very well crafted. Everything in this beer should be there. Nailed it.

A: Pours an opaque jet black in color with only the faintest hints of very dark amber highlights and a light amount of visible carbonation near the surface. The beer has a finger tall dense and creamy very dark tan head that slowly reduces to thin film covering the majority of the surface of the beer with a thick ring at the edges of the glass including some large bubbles in it. Moderate amounts of lacing are observed.
S: Moderate to strong aromas of dark roasted malts, chocolate, and coffee - there is also a lighter amount of dark fruit sweetness and just a hint of pine hops.
T: Strong flavors of dark roasted malts with some moderate to strong flavors of dark chocolate, coffee, and some dark fruits (plum and raisin). There is also a light amount of smokiness and ash. There is a light amount of bitterness from the pine hops but the beer finishes with just a hint of sweetness. Overall, this is a pretty well balanced beer with a nice amount of complexity.
M: Medium to heavy bodied with moderate amounts of carbonation. Smooth with a light amount of alcohol warming in the finish.
O: The Long Trail Brewmaster Series beers are always a very nice beer for a great price (in fact, they are pretty cheap in the NYC area) and this one did not disappoint - this is a very solid American Porter that is a very nice sipping beer. This is a big beer with a decent amount of alcohol in it, mostly hidden, so it is best enjoyed slowly - and it went really well on a cold winter afternoon.

Thanks to ActonBrewer for this one! Reviewed from notes. Poured from bomber into a TBBC pint glass.
A: Very dark brown, opaque, with a one and a half finger tan head. Moderate visible carbonation.
S: Cacao, coffee, raisins, sweetness (molasses), and hints of soy.
T: Dark chocolate, cacao, raisins, and some acidity & tannins. There is some hop bitterness noticeable as well.
M: Medium to heavy body for a porter. Good amount of carbonation sensation, and the alcohol is noticeable but doesn't quite overwhelm.
O: This isn't really working for me, but it's not awful. Glad to have tried it, but I don't foresee another in my future.

Rocky, tan head. Deep dark brown color where only a minimum of light passes. Good ring lace on the glass.
Chalky cocoa aroma. Semi-sweet chocolate. Light alcohol in the background.
Starts off mild with darker caramel malts. This fades with the black patent component that kicks in a couple of seconds later. There's some solid hop bitterness in the swallow. A long aftertaste of bakers chocolate and bittering hop.

Really nice looking. Deep brown/black with a thick long lasting tan head. Really nice roasted malted and dried fruit aromas. A lot of hop aromas...especially for a porter.
Taste is really nice. Bitter chocolatey malt, boozey malt, dried fruit, and nice bitter hop flavors. Its a bit boozey mouthfeel; sharp and warming, deff a sipping brew. Overall, a fantastic more complex porter. Well worth the $4.99 paid!!

Purchased 9/2010
Pours a nice two fingers worth of a mocha/light brown head. Deep brown semi translucent body. Great lacing, head dies down but is easily roused.
Smells of dark fruit, rum raisins, yeasty fruity esters. Some bakers chocolate, carmel and light alcohol.
Tastes fairly complex, dark fruit, rum raisins again, carmel, light amount of roast, dark chocolate, brown sugar. Alcohol is slightly warming but not heavy in the taste.
Medium thin bodied. Medium carbing. Quite silky smooth, and highly drinkable for this abv. Lingering taste is light roast and dark fruits.
Overall this is a tasty porter. A bit too fruity for a typical porter but as an imperial example works fairly well. The drinkability on this one keeps me happy and wanting more. If they make this again I'll get a few and cellar it for a few years like this one.

look: 3.5 | smell: 4 | taste: 4.5 | feel: 4.5 | overall: 4
Poured from bottle into pint glass
Appearance – Pours a deep brown nearly black color with a thin brown head. The head faded very fast giving way to a nice level of lacing.
Smell – The aroma is big of a brown bread, cocoa, and coffee mixed with good doses of some dark fruit. Rounding out these aromas is a stronger boozy aroma.
Taste – A big malty taste meets the tongue. A dark bready and cocoa flavor are the biggest of the initial tastes. These flavors are soon greeted with some flavors of the dark fruit more toward the middle, which sweeten it to a light extent, but by no means make it a sweeter brew. At the end, a nice more roasted flavor comes to the tongue bittering up the taste quite a bit. This is accompanied by an oaky and boozy taste which leave a lingering roasted boozy bitter aftertaste on the tongue.
Mouthfeel – Thick and big. The body of the beer is big and chewy. The flavors of the roasted malt and cocoa really soak into the tongue with this thickness as it coats the tongue. The carbonation level is rather low, only accentuating the coating of the tongue that the body promotes.
Overall – Very chewy and roasty. A good cold weather warmer with big flavor.

A: Deep, dark brown with a light brown, fluffy, thick head. Builds quickly but dies quickly and leaves little lace and retention.
S: Roasted malt, dark chocolate, a bit of smoke. Weak overall.
T: Great roasted malt character. Some dark chocolate, dark coffee, brown sugar, and smoke. Delicious.
M: Flavors are there but the body is a bit thin at the back. This is typical of every Porter but with the amount of flavor and booze, I expected a heavier body. It's still heavier than most Porters, though, and the booze is pretty much nonexistent throughout which is great.
O: A very delicious, consistent, and impressive Imperial Porter from Long Trail. Great beer!

Pours a dense dark brown color with just a little light coming through on the bottom of the pint glass. Good size light tan head with good lacing and head retention.
Smell is bready malt, port wine and a little chocolate. Very pronounced and good.
Taste is exceptional. Smooth bready malt, vinuous (port wine), a little hops bitterness in the finish and semi-sweet chocolate.
Mouthfeel is rich. The port wine and touch of hops add complexity.
I see this more as a light RIS rather than a Porter, but in either case, it is a nice slow sipper.

Had this on 2012-04-27 in Columbia, PA
A - Opaque dark brown with a firm, 3-finger tan head that lingers and leave excellent lacing. There's a tinge of ruby around the edges of the glass when held to the light.
S - Chocolate malt, dark roasted grain, plum, oak wine barrel. Very nice.
T - Dark roasted grain, tart citrus, raisin, muted chocolate, mint, astringent, not too sweet, significant roasted/burnt and hop bitterness that lingers a long time. It's got a hearty flavor.
M - Medium body and light-medium carbonation. Less body than I expected. Not overly smooth. Somewhat prickly.
O - This is a fine brew, particularly if you're in the mood for the charred taste. It's not as soothing as a Founders Breakfast Stout; more like a Founders Imperial Stout with less body and ABV. I'd always be glad for a glass of this but wouldn't make it a staple in my fridge.

Served slightly chilled it pours nearly black with a soft pillowy tan head on top rising to about a finger thick. Sitting it leaves a nice half-finger surface layer. Very nice!
Dark roasty chocolate malts along with toffee hits my nose. A bit of alcohol phenols also come across with some slight earthy hops. Nice.
Sipping reveals a nice chocolate malty start along with some sweet toffee notes as well. A drying bit of alcohol finishes this off with a bit of heat and roasted coffee on the finish.
Nice body and nice feel overall. The alcohol becomes present on the finish and makes me like it even more. wow!
One of the better roasty beers I've had this year at the end of the winter and beginning of spring months. Cheers!

January 1st
First Foot Day
First Foot Day marks the beginning of the New Year & is said to bring luck.
Should it be a man or woman to steps first in your door ?
Scottish tradition says a MAN must be the first person to cross the threshold into our homes on New Years and you must not let a woman come inside the house until a man does or it will be bad luck !
Some believe it should be a man with dark hair for good luck.
The Scots may bring a symbolic piece of coal, shortbread, salt, black buns & some whisky !
This superstition may come from the Viking days of long ago when it was not lucky to have a blond stranger arrive on your doorstep with a big axe:eek:
DH went out and came in long before I was up and he has dark hair so should be a good year here.
I am glad to report that our oldest grandson who has dark hair entered the house 1st to-day....our DD followed him.....I'm Norwegian descent so definately don't want a blond stranger carrying an axe coming in my house:laugh:
whew, thank goodness the first person was my nieces boyfriend and he has black hair.....:)

Lunch at the Waldorf-Astoria with George Foster Peabody, Lesley Stahl, Krista Tippett, Tina Fey, and Stephen Colbert
Kate Moos, Managing Producer
Monday a few of us had the great honor and pleasure of attending the Peabody Awards ceremony at the Waldorf-Astoria in New York, where Speaking of Faith was honored for its program on the 13th century Sufi mystic and poet Rumi. We were packed cheek by jowl into the large ballroom full of peers in broadcasting from around the country.
My take away was the utter gravity with which this award is taken by people at every stratum of broadcasting, as a measure of quality and as a reminder of the promise that broadcasting holds not just to entertain (though surely to entertain) but also to inform, to nourish, and to challenge.
Here, our dear host enjoys the scene with our colleague and good friend Tom Voegeli, and his son Ollie. Tom, an accomplished veteran producer of public radio, won his fourth Peabody this year for the MTT Files, a wonderful series with Michael Tilson Thomas.
Thanks to all of you — our listeners and readers — for your intelligence, your warmth, and your engagement with our work. You make us very proud, and you are the reason we do this work gladly, with or without a Peabody.
(photo: Mitch Hanley)
A Peabody Award!
We're all a little giddy around here today. This morning we learned that we won a 2008 Peabody Award, for our program on Rumi. This is broadcasting's highest award, and for us it is a sign of arrival. Speaking of Faith launched almost five years ago as a weekly show. In the beginning, many simply didn't believe that it would be possible to put a program on religion on the air without alienating, inflaming, or proselytizing.
It has been a great adventure pulling that off. And it has been a team effort to say the least. I include our listeners in that - listeners who encouraged and supported us and their public radio stations along the way, saying that, yes, this subject is too important not to risk finding a way to do it differently and get it right. I've sensed this past year that we are hitting our stride, finding our voice, in so many ways, and this award feels like a confirmation of that.
We will keep risking, experimenting and, I hope, getting better and better. But, for today, we're celebrating and not getting much work done! Take a look here at the great company we're in.

Letter from Claremont: September-August 2012 Dear Friend, If ever there were a thinker whose insights would seem a natural to feature in multiple languages, it's Peter Drucker. After all, his books have been translated into more than 40 languages. All-volunteer organizations that draw on Drucker's vast body of work as they seek to effect positive change in their local communities continue to operate across the world as part of our Drucker Society Network. And so we were quite certain that when we began earlier this year to translate select posts from our blog, the Drucker Exchange, into six different tongues—Chinese, Hindi, Japanese, Korean, Portuguese and Spanish—we had a global hit on our hands. It was a no-brainer, really. We eventually realized, however, that among Drucker's most valuable lessons is this: "Don't ever bet on a sure thing. It always misfires." Indeed, after a pilot round using volunteer translators, and then paying for professional translations over the next six months, we couldn't escape the fact that we were attracting no more than a few hundred viewers to these foreign-language posts, a fraction of what we'd anticipated. In short, we had failed. And so we called a halt to the program. "It is as important to decide when to abandon an innovative effort as it is to know which one to start," Drucker wrote. "In fact, it may be more important. Successful laboratory directors know when to abandon a line of research that does not yield the expected results. The less successful ones keep hoping against hope . . . or are fooled by the scientist's repeated promise of a " breakthrough next year". And the unsuccessful ones cannot abandon a project and admit that what seemed like a good idea has turned into a waste of researchers, time and money." To be clear, this wasn't a decision that felt good. We had announced the translation initiative with some fanfare. But to continue on would have been to deny hard data and squander precious resources to invest in something totally unwarranted: what Drucker called "managerial ego." We've shifted the resources originally earmarked for translation into other projects, including an all-new Drucker Now app for iPhone and Android. We'll be looking at how well these new investments engage you, our readers, to help us decide whether they live on or they end up in the laboratory scrap heap in order to make way for tomorrow's innovations. Rick Wartzman and Zach First Executive Director and Managing Director

What wins Western packagers
The investment levels were similar for coding and marking equipment. About 39% expected to spend under $13 while only 22.2% indicated expenditures would surpass $50. Wrapping equipment budgets were similarly modest. Over 83% of those who planned to purchase said their budgets were $50 or less. And fully half of all those who planned to buy this equipment expected to spend $13 or less.
At the other end of the spectrum 70% of those with plans to buy palletizing or depalletizing equipment had budgets over $50. Some 78% of those who planned to buy cartoning equipment expected to invest more than $13.
Although fewer respondents actually specified their company's budget levels compared to the number who indicated buying plans investment levels are included as a sort of "qualifier" question to check the validity of responses. If for example a high percentage of those who planned to buy form/fill/seal equipment indicated low budgeted amounts that would be a strong reason to question the data.
Does location affect buying?
PW also inquired whether packagers in the West felt their location had a noticeable effect on their purchasing of equipment and materials. Slightly over half of the respondents (52.6%) (Chart 2) said their location didn't matter when given a choice of three other answers.
Not surprisingly a bit more than a third indicated that they do more business with Western-based vendors. Their location said 9% meant they work more with consultants than if they were located farther east. Another 4.5% said their location required them to furnish more in-house engineering.
Given the number of natural disasters encountered in Western states over the last few years PW asked whether these occurences had affected their businesses. Slightly more than 76% said these had no effect. Almost 16% reported these disasters had caused interruptions in shipping schedules while another 15% said that these events had interrupted deliveries from vendors.
Finally almost 9% of respondents said their companies had experienced interruptions of plant operations caused by earthquakes floods and other disasters. These answers add up to more than 100% because some respondents checked more than one answer.
The survey also inquired about the use of copackers and repackers although the question wasn't specifically linked to disasters. Nearly 70% of respondents said their companies don't use outside companies for packing or repacking. Of those that do just over 20% report using them more often in '95 compared to last year. Fewer than 6% said their companies are using these services less frequently this year.
Evaluating issues
The survey asked Western packagers to rate a variety of packaging issues on a scale of high interest to no interest. To chart high vs low interest we combined the two highest answers and contrasted it with the two lowest answers. Between these four answers were three levels of moderate interest that are not considered in the graphic (Chart 3).
The engineers made their presence felt. The two highest-interest issues were changeover time and increasing automation (each 54.3%). These were followed by new materials (48.3%) the addition of bar codes to packages (47.5%) and equipment flexibility (47%).
Conversely just 5.8% reported little interest in new materials and 6.5% reported little interest in increasing automation. To check validity we asked about interest in decreasing product variety. Some 20% of the answers were the two highest while more than 25% answered at the two lowest levels.
Among the two environmental issues source reduction produced higher levels of interest (41.1%) than did using recycled materials (35.4%). For virtually every one of the nine issues respondents who reported their companies had downsized showed higher levels of interest than those from companies that had added workers or stayed the same.
Downsizing? Sort of
One must assume that few (if any) of the Western respondents came from companies that had been involved in supplying the U.S. military. When the survey asked about whether their departments had been affected by downsizing just 38.5% reported they had the same workload but fewer people to do it (Chart 4). Nearly 10% reported that their companies had actually hired more workers.
The majority 51.6% said downsizing had not affected their packaging operations. Since many companies that cut staff tend to outsource more work the survey asked Western packagers if their use of outside consultants had changed in the last year. The answers pretty closely parallel the percentages of respondents whose packaging had been affected by downsizing (Charts 5 through 10).
No matter the type of consultant most respondents said there had been no change this year vs last year. Graphic design consultants got more business from 38.8% of participants while 10% reported a decline in use of designers. Line integrators those consultants that coordinate equipment in a packaging line proved to be the exception. While over 72% reported no change 18.2% reported less frequent use of line integrators in '95; only 9.1% said they were being used more often. Even more surprising respondents affected by downsizing reported the biggest decline. Over 28% of these respondents reported their companies used line integrators less in '95.
Where time goes
Finally PW asked Western packagers about whether they spent more or less time this year responding to certain packaging issues. Because Western states have been leaders in environmental packaging issues we asked whether they personally spent more time meeting environmental packaging standards this year.
While about half said they spent the same amount of time as last year over 44% indicated they spent more time on environmental packaging standards. Less than 6% reported less time invested on this issue.
Easily the issue of most importance is tracking productivity on the packaging line. Survey respondents reported more time invested in this in '95. Of all responses 52.5% reported more time spent on this in '95; only 3.3% said it required less time.
Some 63% reported no change in the amount of time spent in designing packages for recycling but over 25% spent more time on this in '95. Nearly 38% put more time into designing packages for international shipments this year than last. Fewer than 7% said this task required less time this year.
We also asked Western packagers how they perceived the importance of ISO certification of their suppliers. ISO registration was very important to only 18.5% of Western respondents while it was not at all important to 16.9%. Obviously the majority of survey participants answered with more restraint. Nearly four in ten felt it was moderately important while slightly more than 25% felt ISO certification was of very little importance.
We encourage all readers to evaluate their answers in comparison to this sample of PW's Western readership and we thank the participants for their cooperation.

Third giraffe calf of the season born Friday
Springfield, Mo. – The holiday weekend brought more to be thankful for at Dickerson Park Zoo. Staff monitoring the giraffes anticipating Emma's delivery noted she gave birth Friday evening to a male calf between 7 and 10:30 p.m.
The calf is the third giraffe born at Dickerson Park Zoo since mid-September and the first for 7-year-old Emma. Emma's calf is particularly notable since Emma's mother, Gidget, is also among the herd. Gidget's 11th calf was born 12 days earlier. This is the first time in the zoo's history that three generations of giraffes will be in the yard.
Zookeepers gave the honor of naming this calf to a staff member who celebrated her 40th anniversary with the zoo in mid-November. The name will be announced in the coming days. Emma and her calf are mingling with the adult females of the herd and two female calves, and will be in the yard as the weather and temperatures allow.
Dickerson Park Zoo is open daily 10 a.m.-4 p.m., weather permitting. The zoo will be closed on Christmas Day, New Year's Day and when the walkways are covered with ice or snow. For more information, visit the zoo online at www.dickersonparkzoo.org, or call the zoo's information hotline, 417-864-1800.

Art Review: Gerald Hill
CityArts is currently showing the work of photographer Gerald Hill in the solo exhibition Black and White Photography from Gerald Hill. Hill's practice spans over 30 years. During this time, he gained representation through galleries in Dallas, Kansas City, Santa Fe, and Topeka. The National Park System has licensed some of his work as well.
Hill's photography resembles 19th century Romantic landscape painting and will also look familiar to any fan of Ansel Adams. The subject matter of his photography typically concerns national parks, landscapes, and empty architecture. He divides his body of work into three categories: Abstract/Contemporary, Classic Americana, and Traditional Landscapes. In the CityArts exhibition, visitors will see black and white images from each of these categories.
Over 50 of Hill's images line the perimeter of the Main Gallery. His extensive collection of photography is technically proficient and compositionally solid, but the subject matter is, at times, all too familiar. His people-less scenes are, however, pleasant and easily enjoyed.
The major disappointment for the show is in his presentation. Hill mounted his photographs on gatorboard – a material much like foamcore, but stronger – which hangs on the wall with basic sawtooth hangers. This is a lazy presentation. I can only assume that he chose these inexpensive materials to lower the cost of his work for both himself and the potential buyer. Unfortunately, what he made instead was an expensive piece of gatorboard that no gallery would call "fine art."
The other complication in the presentation: gatorboard is lightweight and shifts with the slightest breeze, which means his work does not stay level on the wall. Unless someone is dedicated to constantly straightening the work, the show will remain in an unkempt state, as it did when I viewed it.
Finally, in tandem with this troubling material decision, Hill printed his photos in all the same size. The only variety is when vertical compositions interrupt the stream of horizontally hung work, which ends up reading like the dots and dashes of Morse code. With this visual rhythm and titles that state the subject matter of the photograph, one can move quite quickly through Hill's show.
I have been to CityArts many times and enjoyed their installations (see Makes It Into Matter), but Hill's exhibition proves that even with strong work, a weak presentation can undermine the quality of the entire show.
Black and White Photography from Gerald Hill is on view from June 27 – July 21 at CityArts. CityArts is located at 334 N Mead, Wichita, KS 67202 and can be reached at (316) 462-2787. Gallery and Gift Shop Hours of Operation: Mondays-Thursdays, 10 am-9pm; Fridays, 10am-5pm; Final Fridays 10am-9pm; Saturdays, 10am-4pm.

Generic Name: beclomethasone (be-kloe-METH-a-sone)
Brand Name: Qvar
Qvar aerosol solution is used for:
Treating asthma. Qvar aerosol solution is also used to prevent asthma attacks. It will not stop an asthma attack once one has started. It may also be used to treat other conditions as determined by your doctor.
Qvar aerosol solution is a corticosteroid. It works by decreasing inflammation in the airways, which helps to prevent asthma symptoms.
Do NOT use Qvar aerosol solution if:
- you are allergic to any ingredient in Qvar aerosol solution
- you are having an asthma attack
Contact your doctor or health care provider right away if any of these apply to you.
Before using Qvar aerosol solution:
Some medical conditions may interact with Qvar aerosol solution. Tell your doctor or pharmacist if you have any medical conditions, especially if any of the following apply to you:
- if you are pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or are breast-feeding
- if you are taking any prescription or nonprescription medicine, herbal preparation, or dietary supplement
- if you have allergies to medicines, foods, or other substances
- if you have an infection or illness, diarrhea, a herpes infection near the eye, cataracts, or glaucoma
- if you have tuberculosis (TB), measles, chickenpox, or had a positive TB skin test
- if you have recently received or are scheduled to receive a vaccine
- if you have had recent surgery or injury
Some MEDICINES MAY INTERACT with Qvar aerosol solution. However, no specific interactions are known at this time.
Ask your health care provider if Qvar aerosol solution may interact with other medicines that you take. Check with your health care provider before you start, stop, or change the dose of any medicine.
How to use Qvar aerosol solution:
Use Qvar aerosol solution as directed by your doctor. Check the label on the medicine for exact dosing instructions.
- Before using Qvar aerosol solution, be sure that the canister is properly placed in the inhaler unit.
- Each time a new inhaler is used, turn the canister away from the face and press down into the mouthpiece to release test sprays into the air. This process is called priming and will allow you to be sure the inhaler is working properly and will provide a full dose of medicine.
- Breathe out slowly and completely. Place the mouthpiece between your lips and try to rest your tongue flat, unless your doctor has told you otherwise. Your doctor may have told you to hold the inhaler 1 or 2 inches (2 or 3 centimeters) away from the open mouth or to use a special spacing device. As you start to take a slow deep breath, press the canister and mouthpiece together at exactly the same time. This will release a dose of Qvar aerosol solution. Continue breathing in slowly and deeply and hold for as long as comfortable, then breathe out slowly through pursed lips or your nose. If more than 1 inhalation is to be used, wait a few minutes and repeat the above steps. Keep the spray away from your eyes.
- Rinse your mouth or gargle with water after using Qvar aerosol solution to prevent mouth sores or bad taste.
- Keep track of the number of sprays you use and subtract this number from the number of doses in the container. This will help you know when the container is becoming empty.
- If you miss a dose of Qvar aerosol solution, use it as soon as possible. If it is almost time for your next dose, skip the missed dose and go back to your regular dosing schedule. Do not use 2 doses at once.
Ask your health care provider any questions you may have about how to use Qvar aerosol solution.
Important safety information:
- Qvar aerosol solution will not stop an asthma attack once one has started. If you are also using a bronchodilator inhaler, be sure to always carry the bronchodilator inhaler with you to use during asthma attacks.
- It may take several weeks for Qvar aerosol solution to give full benefit. Continue to use it as directed during this time. If your symptoms do not get better after regular use or if your asthma gets worse, check with your doctor.
- Avoid spraying Qvar aerosol solution in the eyes.
- Use caution if you switch from an oral steroid (eg, prednisone) to Qvar aerosol solution. It may take several months for your body to make enough natural steroids to handle events that cause physical stress. Such events may include injury, surgery, infection, loss of blood electrolytes, or a sudden asthma attack. These may be severe and sometimes fatal. Contact your doctor right away if any of these events occur. You may need to take an oral steroid (eg, prednisone) again. Carry a card at all times that says you may need an oral steroid (eg, prednisone) if any of these events occur.
- Tell your doctor or dentist that you take Qvar aerosol solution before you receive any medical or dental care, emergency care, or surgery.
- If you have not had chickenpox, shingles, or measles, avoid contact with anyone who does.
- Some patients may have trouble using Qvar aerosol solution correctly. Some may also get mouth sores or a bad taste in the mouth after using it. If you have any of these problems, ask your health care provider if a spacing device may help.
- Corticosteroids may affect growth rate in CHILDREN and teenagers in some cases. They may need regular growth checks while they use Qvar aerosol solution.

Podcast | What you need to know about early puberty
Wednesday, June 02, 2010The Doctor Is In
Ah, puberty. A magical time in any child's (and parent's) life. Most girls begin puberty around age 10, and most boys around age 12.
But what if your child starts puberty at age 6? 5? Early puberty, also sometimes called precocious puberty, is the onset of puberty before the age of 7 or 8 in girls or 9 in boys. While it's not usually medically a cause for concern, it can bring a host of social problems and should warrant a trip to your pediatrician.
Listen below as Dr. Lisa Thornton explains the ins and outs of early puberty.

Plastic: another enemy to the Leatherback Sea Turtle
Leatherbacks, which feed primarily on jellyfish, are known to mistake plastic bags for food. Now a recent study has shown just how deadly plastic may be for the critically endangered Pacific leatherback sea turtle. Autopsy records of 408 leatherback turtles, spanning 123 years (18852007), found plastic in the GI tract 34% of the time! Sometimes, the ingested plastic even blocked the gut, likely resulting in death of the turtle. Notice the large increase in plastic found in leatherbacks since the 1960s.
Plastic bags may kill tens of thousands of whales, seals, turtles and other marine animals a year.
What can YOU do about it? Get your city to phase out the use of plastic bags! San Francisco already did it. Los Angeles banned plastic bags by July 1, 2010.
Check out this informative video by "J" Nichols, to see just how similar plastic bags and jellyfish actually look. His blog rocks too.

Joining metal with heat is a fabrication process used since the Bronze Age, and new technology develops continually.
The Crucible teaches beginning and advanced classes in four different kinds of welding: oxyacetylene gas welding, arc (or "stick") welding, metal inert gas (MIG) welding and tungsten inert gas (TIG) welding. Start with a beginning class in one type of welding, or begin by exploring all four types of welding in our Exploring Welding class.
Exploring Welding
If you're not sure what type of welding you'd like to learn, this is the class for you. You will learn about —and have the chance to try—the four types of welding taught at The Crucible: oxyacetylene, arc ("stick"), metal inert gas (MIG) and tungsten inert gas (TIG). This class will inspire you and guide you to the type of welding most appropriate to the project you want to complete or the direction you want to follow.

Introduction to MIG Welding
This entry level class covers the fundamentals of MIG welding and plasma torch cutting. You will be introduced to MIG (metal inert gas, or wire-feed) welding, and learn how to make electricity "arc" through the air to the steel creating enough heat to melt it and the steel wire you are adding to it, effectively creating a weld. You will learn how to use this process to run beads, tack weld and create joints. In addition you will be introduced to the plasma torch which allows you to use electricity to transform atmospheric gas into plasma, the fourth state of matter, and create enough heat to melt steel, effectively cutting it. The class will culminate in a small project to show off your newly acquired skills.

Untitled comment from 188.8.131.52
Well I didn't know that OmegaRasengan....and if you check the stats from when it was announced, my page was technically released first and with more information, so I'm sure we can just keep it so my information is on this page.....it is a wikia after all.—Preceding unsigned comment added by 126.96.36.199 (talk • contribs)
- 11:07, an hour before you made the second one. You said this is a wikia yet you said we own and share the game page? Do you really know what you are talking about? Yes, you did know there was already a page. It was listed in recent activity so saying you didn't know is a complete lie. And rather than saying anything, you revert the redirects and blank the original page. So please, stop with the I didn't know act. --OmegaRasengan (talk) 02:07, January 9, 2013 (UTC)
I meant I didn't know that "there is no sharing pages," not that I didn't know there was another page. I was saying we should be the ones keeping it in line.—Preceding unsigned comment added by 188.8.131.52 (talk • contribs)

Where did you get the info about that new type? Or the other info, in particular? Energy X ∞ 17:22, June 11, 2013 (UTC)
Not sure why are you creating the templates, like this one. What is wrong with just adding the content as it is? Energy X 09:54, August 10, 2013 (UTC)
It is not about the content, it is about making templates for one page; it is (usually) pointless to do so. Energy X 19:59, September 4, 2013 (UTC)
Well then
Please try to be nice when putting in a comment about undoing an edit or when making an edit. Everyone is a beginner at some point. Slayingthehalcyon (Talk) 15:42,9/13/2013 4,029
While I do not approve of these templates, the "coding" is a bit wrong. At the end, the <center> should be after </tabber> and has to be </center>, otherwise the text in the article is centered and looks wierd. Energy X 21:52, September 19, 2013 (UTC)
- Well, I will tell you what I told you. Not everyone knows how to edit template page as they cannot "get to that page". You have to understand that not everyone knows about that. This way people have easier access to put the data in the infobox. Energy X 08:59, September 20, 2013 (UTC)
Re: Delphox deletion
I would rather wait for the official announcement than make a page off the reference of a blurry fan recorded video. RainbowShifter 20:44, October 2, 2013 (UTC)
To answer your question, this. Too many pages to be deleted by hand, so a bot will have to be set to clear the cache. Energy X 20:59, October 2, 2013 (UTC)
I don't like your sarcastic edit summaries. The wiki needs to 'step it up'? Right clearly you can see that I am the only active admin here and deleting every single page which is fanon at the exact moment they are made is very hard. Also 'RS wants to wait for "official" announcements"? Erm, of course I want to wait for "official" announcements and there was no need to put the word official like that. Do you really want me to put every single rumour on this wiki as soon as it is said? Your video which is meant to be official is fanon, good job I didn't listen to you. You need to sort out your attitude and realise that we have to wait for official information only. This means it has to be sourced from the Official Pokémon Site or from Nintendo/Game Freak themselves. RainbowShifter 15:48, October 4, 2013 (UTC)
Re: So...
Everything seems to be in order. Go ahead and add them! Don't forget to categorise them properly with correct templates and layout. Also with every page you add don't forget to add the link to the XY game page. Thanks, RainbowShifter 15:32, October 10, 2013 (UTC)
- The wiki's page (like add the pictures to the gallery with the pokémon name as a caption, there are examples already there to show you how it is done). RainbowShifter 16:20, October 10, 2013 (UTC)
When you create a template for the Mega Pokémon or forms, you are doing it a bit wrong. The current templates had a script to center the article they are used in. If you change it like this, the article is no longer centered. Energy X 23:07, October 13, 2013 (UTC)

Construction template
Please don't edit an article that has the construction template in use. That template specifically states that it is in the middle of being edited and that others are asked not to edit while it is up. ~ƒelinoel 20:27, October 21, 2013 (UTC)
- I didn't call you it I called the kind of edit it. For the record so did you just then on my talk page so we are agreeing as to what kind of edit it was and not you. ~ƒelinoel 20:38, October 21, 2013 (UTC)
Don't be stupid. I renamed it wrongly earlier, so I'm renaming it to its proper name. The Safari Zones follow a specific naming convention. Region comes first, then the name of the safari zone. There's why the rest of the safari zones are called Hoenn Safari Zone, Johto Safari Zone, etc etc. This is a Friend Safari Zone in Kalos, so it's called Kalos Friend Safari Zone. Clear now? Stop renaming it back to its wrong name. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Mezzaomega (talk • contribs)
- Please remember to sign your posts with four tilde.
- I dunno... we only named them by the region in the past because they were all called just Safari Zone, this is a Friend Safari Zone, something pretty much entirely different. Though I would also suggest a renaming is in order... maybe put the region after the Safari Zone and in parenthesis? So like Safari Zone (Johto) and Safari Zone (Hoenn), that just seems more accurate imo... ~ƒelinoel 13:15, October 24, 2013 (UTC)
- Pic proof? He said that naming Safari Zones with their region in front is the set standard for how we do things here, not that that is what the Safari Zones are actually called, that is why I suggested the relocating of the location to the end of the name and in parenthesis because they are called Safari Zone but they are in different regions. ~ƒelinoel 15:50, October 24, 2013 (UTC)
Admin approved the name change days ago
The admin already approved. It's not name calling, I really think you're dense - do you think that I don't have permission? I've already requested from the admin earlier, she agreed that I can change it to "Kalos Friend Safari Zone" to fit the established nomenclature, so stop arguing and changing things unnecessarily on your own without permission. Take it up with her if you think your suggestion is better. I will respect her decision if she agrees with you.
But I think you're wrong.
You see, naming everything in brackets is clunky. Having the region name first would be faster for people to process, especially those who can't read English as well as you or I can, like kids or foreign players who may be trying to reference this wikia. It's good typography, providing good readability and fast referencing, which is desired when people simply want to get to use the page to jump to a specific safari zone page quickly.
The name doesn't necessarily have to be accurate to the letter because everyone already knows the list is about safari zones - it's under the safari zone page after all, they all have the same name. It's WHICH safari zone that they're concerned about. Think carefully - would it be faster for someone like that to see region names first in the list of zones, or have to slow down and read carefully through the brackets and stop at the friend safari zone, which is unlabelled, and be lost because they don't know where that is especially if they haven't played the game or haven't found the safari yet which is only available after the Elite four has been beaten?
Look, I've taken that page under my wing sinply because it has been neglected. Before I came along, this page had only barebones info, new features weren't even there nor was the list of encountered pokemon. It wasn't even registered under the safari zone page like the other safari zones, it was floating unsearchable and unlinked. If you think you're so capable, then go ahead and take care of it, build on my hard work instead of arguing when you've done nothing to contribute to it except change the accepted name the admin agreed to.
Our job as contributors is to make the pages easy to reference and informative. You, who not only have done nothing to contribute to the page so far, are even making it more tedious to reference and read. Stop it.

And a little question, How do you separate fan art images from official images?
COOLDRAGON111 (talk) 10:16, October 29, 2013 (UTC)COOLDRAGON111, you can just call me "Cool".
In my opinion, I don't think the pages should be made, as it is stated it is unconfirmed. Still, you should ask the bureaucrats about this, see if they allow that. Energy X 16:57, November 1, 2013 (UTC)
- Did someting out of it. The third table still has some glitches, and I believe to fix it is to remove/place it on the right column with alternative forms, though the table would be longer. Energy X 19:07, November 1, 2013 (UTC)

You know, I think, due to your edits in the past, you can be granted by rollback tools. I suggest that you write the request for it, if you wish so. Energy X 19:14, December 25, 2013 (UTC)
I saw the image database and it seems you are uploading images one by one. I don't think you know of a way to upload many at the same time... Energy X 21:02, December 26, 2013 (UTC)
It is done. Energy X 22:29, December 26, 2013 (UTC)
The Teams
The reason why I have edited the boxes with the leader is because, 1. Ghetsis is the force behind Team Plasma and is concidered the leader. 2. Colress is the leader because (to back the evidence) Ghetsis gave him ownership of the team. 3. Saturn became the owner of the company/team since Cyrus disappeared in the Distortion World.

SNL spoofs CBS Super Bowl blackout coverage
Even though we were almost a full week removed from the Super Bowl, Saturday Night Live could not let the blackout (and CBS's coverage) go unspoofed. We were treated to a fairly brilliant cold open during this past week's episode. Keenan Thompson as James Brown really steals the show here. It is a mix of trying to mask his own panic while trying to keep everyone else's under control.
Jay Pharoah as Shannon Sharpe: "Don't make us watch those first half highlights again! I can't watch those again!"
Jason Sudeikis as Dan Marino: "I'm running on fumes, man."
Tim Robinson as Bill Cowher: "We did a six hour pre-game, what more is there to say?"
Now of course I would argue if they could fill six hours of pre-game, surely four professionals could find a way to fill an unscripted half hour, but they couldn't, and that's why we're here.
Taran Killam, as Steve Tasker, has withouht a doubt the funniest exchange with Thompson, not only asking him to not cut back to him, but then accusing him of making up updates the next time he does, and then disappearing.
The end of the skit, in which desperation hits an all-time high, Brown puts Marino on the spot by asking about his extra-marrital affair, which the real CBS avoided for some reason.
The skit was really a humorus take on the obvious overwhelming panic felt by the CBS analysts. From the continuous promotion of 2 Broke Girls, to the awful analysis of the game when an impromptu blackout forces them all out of their comfort zone, the skit hit on pretty much every angle.
SNL is certainly no longer in its prime, but occassionaly will expose us to its brilliance of the days of yore, and this skit is certainly a shining example.
