14 Things That Are Getting Cheaper
Deflation is a worry, but for now it's making life easier for millions of Americans.
Ask a typical American family, and they'll tell you that the surging costs of healthcare and education are among their biggest strains. Energy prices are an ongoing concern, stable now but punishing when they spike. But many consumers don't realize that dozens of everyday goods and services have been getting cheaper. Overall inflation in 2010 is just 2 percent or so, after a record drop in prices in 2009. Some economists even think deflation is a bigger risk to the economy than inflation, since falling prices can cut into corporate profits and force long-lasting pay cuts.
[Slide Show: 14 Things That Are Getting Cheaper.]
But for now, consumers are enjoying a windfall of cheap stuff, thanks to low-cost imports, rapid technological change, and falling demand for some things. To determine the most significant price declines, I analyzed data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics on the 211 categories that make up the consumer price index, the most common measure of inflation. Over the last 10 years, the cost of goods and services in about 60 of those categories has fallen, while overall inflation has been about 28 percent, or 2.8 percent per year. A lot of other stuff has risen in price, but by less than inflation, which means it's getting more affordable for people whose incomes are keeping up with inflation.
Some things don't seem cheaper because manufacturers often keep prices stable while adding new features or improving performance—and convincing consumers they've got to have the latest 4G phone or ultrathin laptop. But consumers still get more for their money, even if they're paying for extras they don't really need. Here are some of the most notable things that are coming down in price:
Housing. By now, we all know about the housing bubble and bust: After rising sharply for several years, home prices turned south in 2006, and they've been falling ever since. The loss of home equity has been devastating for some homeowners, but the comedown has also tamed runaway housing costs that were pushing a basic home out of many people's reach. With the recent dip, average housing costs have now risen by about 28 percent since 2000, which is about the same as overall inflation. Average rent has risen by about 29 percent. And the recent decline could continue for another year or so, lowering monthly costs for many ordinary families. One downside: With property values falling, tax rates are going up in many areas to compensate for lost tax revenue.
[See how voluntary defaults are reshaping the economy.]
Your family room. It's not just homes that are falling in value; the price of many things inside is coming down, too. The furniture you sit on has fallen by about 12 percent 2000, while the cost of a TV has plunged by 84 percent. Video recorders, audio systems, and movies are cheaper, too. The cost of cable and satellite TV has gone up, but overall, home entertainment has become a bargain. If it doesn't seem that way, it might be because you bought a huge plasma TV or elaborate home-theater system that would have been an unreachable dream 10 years ago.
Your kitchen. Food prices have risen by a bit more than inflation, but the cost of big appliances like refrigerators and dishwashers has barely changed since 2000, which is a net gain for consumers. The cost of small appliances like coffee makers, toasters, and blenders has dropped by about 23 percent, while dishes and flatware are down about 28 percent. Maybe that helps explain why Americans seem to be eating more.
Your laundry room. Price tags on washer and dryers are about the same as they were in 2000, even with snazzy new color-coordinated machines and lower energy usage. And millions of consumers have saved money by trading down from name-brand detergents to store brands, which are cheaper but often seem just as good.

Your bedroom. Sleep is getting cheaper, as long as you factor out the medication that helps you nod off. The cost of bedroom furniture has dipped by about 4 percent since 2000, while bedding, window treatments, and linens have fallen by more, thanks largely to cheap material from China and other low-cost countries.
Your workbench. Tools, paint, hardware, and lawn and garden equipment are about 4 percent cheaper than they were 10 years ago. If you don't have a cordless drill, you're living in the dark ages.
Your office. Be thankful for Moore's Law, which states that the number of transistors able to fit on a computer chip will double about every two years. The remarkable consistency of chip technology has forced computer prices down by a staggering 84 percent since 2000. That doesn't mean we're spending less on computers, but it does mean we have more of them, plus access to capabilities like video streaming that were uncommon 10 years ago. Internet access, long-distance phone service, and even stationery have gotten cheaper as well.
[See 15 trends that will reshape your office.]
Clothes. Virtually every type of apparel has come down in price, thanks to cheap overseas factories that now crank out much of our clothing. The cost of apparel in general has fallen about 8 percent since 2000, with men's clothing down by about 12 percent and women's by 10 percent. The cost of kids' clothing has plummeted by about 27 percent. Even categories that have gone up in price, like footwear, jewelry, and women's dresses, have risen by less than inflation.
Cars. Now you really know the salesman is fibbing when he says that special low price is only valid till the end of the month. The average cost of a new car is about 3 percent lower than in 2000, despite better safety equipment and more advanced electronics. Used vehicles are down even more, by about 8 percent. Aggressive new fuel-economy rules should gradually raise the cost of cars, but for the time being, weak demand is likely to offset that and keep the deals coming.
[See 10 reasons you don't need a hybrid.]
Communication. If you want to avoid talking to your nebbish cousin from Ohio, you'll have to come up with a better excuse than money. The cost of keeping in touch is about 9 percent cheaper than it was 10 years ago, with wireless service down 20 percent and landline long-distance down 19 percent. If your phone bill seems to be going up instead of down, it's probably because you're buying a bundle of services—like text messaging and mobile E-mail—that barely existed in 2000.
Photography. America has become Shutterbug Nation thanks to camera prices that have fallen 64 percent since 2000. The cost of processing film has risen slightly, but of course many people bypass film these days and use their own printers, or post photos to the Web and enjoy them for free online.
Toys. The occasional safety scare might be unnerving, but Americans have saved a bundle thanks to cheap toys from China and other low-cost importers. Overall, the cost of toys has fallen by 44 percent since 2000, one of the biggest price drops for any category. Sporting goods—the adult equivalent of toys—have stayed about the same, making them cheaper, after inflation.
[See 11 ways to plan for a double-dip recession.]
Music. There's no accounting for taste, but in terms of cost, the past decade has been a huge win for music fans. First, the cost of audio equipment like iPods and other music players has fallen by about 43 percent. And the cost of music itself has drifted down, as online delivery has replaced CDs. For those who make their own, musical instruments are a bit cheaper, too.
Club dues and fees. If you're not a joiner, maybe it's a good time to become one. Membership fees for golf and tennis clubs, gyms, and other sports-related organizations drifted down during the recession, and since 2000 they've risen just 16 percent—a net decline, after inflation. Just remember to tip the caddy.

The stalemate between Democrats and Republicans over federal spending has raised the stakes of this year's election by a minimum of $494 billion.
Without congressional action, taxes will increase by that much as the Bush tax cuts and other temporary tax breaks expire on Dec. 31. President Obama and a Democratic Congress failed to make those tax cuts permanent.
The Bush tax cuts gave every taxpayer a break, but they also included goodies for non-taxpayers. The child tax credit doubled to $1,000 per child for middle-class and low-income families.
If the Bush tax cuts expire, the child tax credit will be cut to $500 per child.
Also, the temporary reduction in the "payroll tax" - which finances Social Security - expires on Dec. 31.
According to the Heritage Foundation, if nothing is done:
* 53.8 million low-income workers will see an average tax increase of $1,207 on an average income of $24,757.
* 33.1 million retirees will see an average tax increase of $857 on an average income of $42,553.

NASA's Phoenix Mars lander damaged, down for count
NASA's Phoenix Mars lander, subjected to extreme low temperatures and crippling ice buildups it was never designed to endure, apparently suffered severe damage during the Martian winter that ended any chance of additional science operations, officials said Monday.
Designed to operate for just three months, Phoenix exceeded expectations, beaming back a steady stream of scientific data for five months before waning sunlight and the approaching Martian winter prevented its solar arrays from generating enough power to keep the craft warm and electronically conscious.
Engineers did not believe the lander could survive a northern latitude winter on Mars, but the … Read more

On Monday, three closest allies of Gulnara Karimova were forcibly driven to the office of the Prosecutor General of Uzbekistan. These people are close to both her body and pocket, including her common-law husband, who is registered as the owner of her business assets in Uzbekistan and abroad. Such events are unfolding around the Uzbek president's elder daughter, whose activities are closely investigated into and scrutinized by local investigation bodies since last fall. While some see the weakening regime's inability to stop these troubles, I look at the situation from a different angle. The destruction of the shadow business empire Gulnara Karimova built does not indicate her father, the president of Uzbekistan, is growing weak; on the contrary, this is a sign of his might.

Last night, on Jan. 29, six journalists, photographers and activists have been detained by Uzbek police and taken to an unknown location in Tashkent, the capital of Uzbekistan. Their names are Umida Akhmedova, Timur Karpov, Alexei Ulko, Ashot Danielyan, Ilgar Gasymov and Gulsum Osmanova. All the detained are our fiends and colleagues, participants of a rally held on Jan. 27 in Tashkent in support of the Euromaidan, an ongoing series of street protests in Ukraine. On that day, they held a brief protest near the Ukrainian embassy building and submitted a petition in support of the Euromaidan in which they urged the government of Prime Minister Azarov to step down (which, in fact, happened in a day). They expressed their support to the people of Ukraine that "rallied against the inhuman, corrupt and totalitarian regime of President Viktor Yanykovych," according to their petition. They condemned the use of force to the protesters in the Ukrainian capital, Kiev, and other Ukrainian cities and the reluctance of Ukrainian authorities to start a constructive dialogue with political opposition and the public movement at the Maidan.

The report is entitled "Uzbek Migrants in Russia: Information Space and Social Communications" and is based on a research held between August 2011 and February 2012. The research in question was held in three Russian cities—Sankt-Peterburg, Pskov, and Kazan, and in Samarkand, Uzbekistan. A total of 46 migrants were interviewed (13 in Kazan, 12 in Pskov, nine in Sankt-Peterburg, and 12 in Samarkand) and editors of three mass media outlets targeting migrants from Central Asia were interviewed.

For his activism in the Human Rights Alliance of Uzbekistan (HRAU), the Fergana Region resident was threatened with death and arson at his house; his family members were assaulted by hired hooligans several times; unknown people threw stones at his house. A year ago, on February 5, 2013, about a hundred people arrived at the Siddikovs family house in several vehicles and threw stones at his house, beat his family members, and later trumped up charges against the head of family and his three sons. Several days prior to this attack, Mr. Siddikov and his sons informed the local authorities about a criminal group engaged in contraband across the Uzbek-Kyrgyz border.

On 4 Dec 2013, the former mayor of the Kyrgyz capital, Isa Omurkulov, "voluntarily resigned" from his post; his counterpart in Osh was dismissed from post the very next day. The two events stirred a lot of emotions in the two largest Kyrgyz cities. Elections for the vacant positions are scheduled for January 2014. The issue of just who will preside in the Osh city hall is not only a pressing one for Osh resident, but it is also a sensitive one for the central authorities in this mountainous country. Obviously, Bishkek wants to have "a reliable handyman" in Osh, not a rebel—an unconditionally complying official, in short. However, one could perhaps be sure that opposition-minded Melisbek Myrzakmatov will recapture his former chair and will be a new, yet old head of the city.

Why are the authorities so afraid of the Erk Party, whose nominee, Muhammad Salih, ran for president in 1991? What kind of party is it anyway, and what issues was the assembly to discuss? Our observer in Tashkent sheds light on such matters in the article below.

Fergana learned that Uzbek authorities launched mass inspections of non-governmental non- profit organizations in Uzbekistan. The inspection teams include all the controlling bodies—the ministry of justices, tax agencies and other relevant government arms. One can only speculate as to the causes of this heightened interest the government is displaying in regards with NGOs: many say the reason is the upcoming parliamentary elections in 2014 and the presidential elections in 2015. Or, possibly, the inspections are unleashed in connection with the closure of the Fund Forum, which belonged to Gulnara Karimova; after all, many NGOs received financial assistance from it. Or, possibly, it is one of the last nails in the coffin, so to speak: the authorities are trying to intimated NGOs to step up its control and to force them into curbing contacts with foreign and international organizations. As a reminder, the Uzbek National TV and Radio Company employees are prohibited from traveling abroad since recently, even during vacation.

On 27 Nov 2013, Muhammad Bekjan, an imprisoned Uzbek journalist, was awarded the annual award of the Freedom of Press instituted by the Reporters Without Borders (RWB). The award has been issued since 1992, and one journalist and one news media outlet can be awarded it, if judges find they made a significant contribution to the protection and development of freedom of the press. The awarding ceremony is traditionally held in Paris, where the RWB has its main office, but this year ceremony was held in Strasburg as part of events the RWB organized during the Global Forum of Democracy of the European Council. The head of the Association of Human Rights in Central Asia, Nadejda Atayeva, received the award in Mr. Bekjan's stead. Mr. Bekjan has been imprisoned for 15 years in a prison in Zarafshan City in Navoi Region. He is serving time for crimes he did not commit and no attempts undertaken by international organizations to release him yielded results. On the contrary, Mr. Bekjan's prison term was extended in 2011; apparently he and his family have lost any hope to see him free again.

Tenuta di Trinoro is pretty high up at between 500 and 700 meters at sea level, facing west- south- west, protected from the sea by the Monte Amiata on the very south east of Tuscany. In 1991 Andrea Franchetti had his inspiration in Bordeaux and indeed his high density, low training vines are more reminiscent of Saint Emilion and Pomerol than the rest of Tuscany. The very particular nature of the his vineyard means that Andrea is still hand picking parcel by parcel, waiting for optimum ripeness, pushing harvest till November. The proportions of the various cepages can vary greatly from year to year and often bear little relation to he proportion of the vines planted. Andrea makes wine by taste and not recipe. The main varieties planted are Cabernet Farnc, Merlot , Cabertnet Sauvignon and Petit Verdot. Upon their debut, Andrea's wines instantly got the role of "cult wines, " for the small quantity of wines initially produced, the extremely high quality and the successful exhibit. Trinoro now produces 80,000 bottles from 30 hectares of land. What is unique to this higher volume industry is the quality of his production.
The winery is located in Sarteano in the southeast corner of Toscana, about half way between Florence and Rome. Very interesting and unusual thought processes go into the production of these wines. The vineyards are micro-managed during harvest to find optimal ripeness. Predominate are the two wines: Toscana Rosso and Le Cupole, the Toscana Rosso being a vineyard selection and barrel selection and the Le Cupole being the rest.
(TUSS-can-ee) One of the most important wine regions in Italy, Tuscany is home to the cities of Florence and Siena, the districts of Chianti and Brunello di Montalcino, and the wineries of Sassicaia, Tignanello and Ornellaia. Tuscany is also home to the indigenous Italian grape variety, Sangiovese. Most of the wine coming from Tuscany is made from some clone of this...Read More About Tuscany

Easy "Twins" trophyAt the Pinai Ferry Station there are twin zombies that must be killed. The first twin is at the beach to the north of the ferry station. It will appear from the lifeguard's shack on the beach. Once you kill it, go to the billboard with the pick-up truck on top of it at south section of the ferry station. Head to the back of the billboard and climb up the ladder. You can collect sniper rifle and bait from the truck. While up there, look toward the ocean and notice that the building to the left is open. Toss the bait near the doors to draw out the other twin. |
Weapon duplication hintNote: This works on items that you can throw and then pick up again. Throw an item (melee weapons, throwing knives) and while the item is still in the air, go to your inventory. Unequip the item that you threw, then leave the inventory menu and pick up the item. You should now have 2 identical copies of the item. As I mentioned, this does not work with guns since you can't throw them or bombs/molotov cocktails since they explode on contact and as such cannot be picked back up. Also, if you are using Logan and have his boomerang skill, if the skill procs while you are trying to do this the duplication will fail, because there is nothing for you to pick up. |

Every British child deserves to relate to Britain's history
History has always been the most controversial subject in the school curriculum. Our separate life histories define us as individuals, and our collective national history defines us as a country.
Since 10% of the children in British schools are Muslim, the MCB has always taken a great interest in education. In recognition of the importance of history education for the identities and national participation of Muslim children, the Research and Documentation Committee of the Muslim Council of Britain has been a patron of Curriculum for Cohesion (CfC) from its beginning. The MCB fully supports the proposals that CfC put to the Department for Education (DfE) in its document "A Broader, Truer History for All". This report showed how the Muslim contribution might be incorporated into the National Curriculum for History in a natural way that would improve the historical knowledge gained by all children in English schools.
Accordingly we are deeply disappointed that on 7 February 2013 the DfE published a draft specification for a revised History curriculum that excludes all reference to Muslims and Islam from the history curriculum that is proposed for English schools. While no curriculum can teach every fact in the history of Britain or the world, the selection of what needs to be taught must be made objectively and fairly, to ensure the teaching of a true picture of the past that prepares our children for life in 21st century Britain. We consider the present DfE draft fails to do this.
The DfE is presently consulting about its draft, with a deadline for responses of 16 April. We call upon the DfE to amend its draft to include the following key points:
These inclusions are required to paint a true picture of the past. In their absence, British Muslim children will see no place for themselves in their country's history, creating the risk of alienation. At the same time non-Muslim children will grow up believing that Muslims have contributed nothing of value to Britain or indeed human civilisation, creating the risk of their acquiring anti-Muslim attitudes. Neither of these outcomes is good for Britain, or for the ability of Britons to do business in a world economy which is increasingly integrated.
We also call upon everyone who cares about the education of British schoolchildren to make their views known to the DfE before the 16 April deadline.

Had these over a year and have not leaked. I hunted 45 days of our Duck season here in FL and it was particularly warm this winter. Waded in Lake Okeechobee for almost everyone of those 45 days. I was very surprised how well they have help up. Waded through submerged dog fennels, dead coffee trees, Kissimmee grass etc... Nothing punctured these waders. Will buy again if they eventually do leak.

These are great waders for hunting and fishing. They are light and when combined with fleece waders pants are very warm. They are comfortable and the boots are warm with 600 grams of thinsulate. I just wore out my other pair which I had for about five years. They are good for fishing because they do not get too hot since they breath. I would definately reco0mmend them!!

On the way home she called two of her friends over to have a drink and to let them entertain her for a little happiness. When Angell told them what happened during her work and how stressed she was all day they suggested her getting some cocks stuffed in her holes for perfect calm down. And what are good friends for? Of course when Angell asked for their cocks they were more than happy to help!

Darren Frederick Morrell killed in Oakton motorcycle crash
A motorcyclist died when the motorcycle he was driving collided with a car in Oakton Tuesday, officials said.
Darren Frederick Morrell, of Valentino Drive, was driving a 2005 Honda CBR sport bike east on White Granite Drive when he struck the left front wheel of a 1995 Pontiac Grand Prix, driven by an 85-year-old man attempting to turn left onto White Granite, according to a Fair Oaks Police District news release.
The man was exiting a post office parking lot and apparently did not see the motorcycle before he turned in front, the release said.
Morrell was ejected and hit the pavement. He was taken to a local hospital where he was pronounced dead a short time later.
No other injuries were reported and speed and alcohol do not appear to be factors.
Anyone with information is asked to contact Crime Solvers by phone at 1-866-411-8477.

The Arabian NightsISBN 0679602356 / 9780679602354 / 0-679-60235-6Find This Book |
Full of mischief and valor, ribaldry and romance, The Arabian Nights is a work that has enthralled readers for centuries. The text presented here is that of the 1932 Modern Library edition for which Bennett A. Cerf chose the "most famous and representative" of the stories from the multivolume translation of Richard F. Burton.
The origins of The Arabian Nights are obscure. About a thousand years ago a vast number of stories in Arabic from various countries began to be brought together; only much later was the collection called The Arabian Nights or the Thousand and One Nights. All the stories are told by Shahrazad (Scheherazade), who entertains her husband, King Shahryar, whose custom it was to execute his wives after a single night. Shahrazad begins a story each night but withholds the ending until the following night, thus postponing her execution.
This selection includes many of the stories that are universally known though seldom read in this authentic form:
"Alaeddin; or, the Wonderful Lamp," "Sindbad the Seaman and Sindbad the Landsman," and "Ali Baba and the Forty Thieves." These, and the tales that accompany them, make delightful reading, demonstrating, as the Modern Library noted in 1932, that Shahrazad's spell remains unbroken. [via]

Indiana House Budget Plan Doesn't Include Pence Tax Cut
A state budget plan put forth by Indiana House Republicans would swap a $500 million tax cut sought by Gov. Mike Pence for new spending on education and transportation.
Details of the two-year budget proposal released today would increase K through12 funding by 2 percent the first year and 1 percent the second year.
It also would boost transportation spending $250 million a year by using all of Indiana's gas tax on roads projects for the first time. The GOP proposal also would pay for State Police, Bureau of Motor Vehicles and some Department of Natural Resources expenses through Indiana's general fund.
Republican House Ways and Means Chairman Tim Brown says the House hasn't ruled out the Pence tax cut. But approving it would mean slashing priorities the House GOP pays for in its plan.
Gov. Pence says he's disappointed the budget plan doesn't include a tax cut, but adds that legislative leaders have assured him that it's still possible.

John Hinckley hearing to determine if Hinkley gets more time out
WASHINGTON (AP) - A lawyer for the man who shot and wounded President Ronald Reagan says his client has been spending too much time at a psychiatric hospital and should instead spend more time at his mother's Virginia home.
Barry Levine, a longtime attorney for John Hinckley, was taking part in a court hearing in Washington on Monday.
Lawyers are discussing whether Hinckley should be allowed to spend additional time away from the psychiatric hospital where he has lived since being found to be insane at the time he shot Reagan in 1981. Hinckley has been gradually given more freedom from Washington's St. Elizabeths Hospital. He is currently allowed to make 10-day visits to his mother's home in Williamsburg, Va.
Levine argued that Hinckley has earned more time in Virginia.

After spending a year in the FIA World Endurance Championship, Japanese driver Kamui...
Land Rover considers smaller SUV
Land Rover could add a luxury SUV below the compact-sized Range Rover Evoque, the brand's design director said.
"Certainly, I think we can go smaller," Gerry McGovern told Automotive News Europe when asked about future plans for the premium Range Rover line. "In a world focusing on sustainability you could argue that smaller and lighter is the way to go."
Range Rover is not the only brand considering a subcompact premium SUV. Audi design boss Stefan Sielaff has floated the idea of a Q1 SUV, which would fit in below the compact-sized Q3.
Since launching the Evoque last year, Land Rover has sold more than 90,000 of the three- and five-door SUVs, according to data from Land Rover owner Tata Motors.
In the United States, sales of the Evoque totaled 5,676 units through the end of August.

Baumann came to Taos in May 1918 at the invitation of two Chicago artist-friends. He was taken by the light and atmosphere of New Mexico, but not by the squabbles of the Taos art colony, which were inconducive to the solitary and exacting nature of color woodblock printmaking.
Days before leaving Taos for his permanent residency in Santa Fe he attended the annual celebrations at the thriving Taos Pueblo. The celebration, uniting Christian and Puebloan beliefs, is held on the feast day of San Geronimo (St. Jerome), September 30.

HELP!! Rewire Problems Logic 9 & Reason Latest Updates!
Hello Eveyone who's seeing this!
Ok, im pretty bad at explaining things, but here i go.... When i want to record a instruments from reason to logic i first make sure it's in rewire mode then i rout the output of the instruments lets say stereo 5/6( lets say its a piano) , then i create a externail midi in Logic 9 and then i select the reason folder on the right of the screen tab and select the instrument that i created in reason. Then create a aux channel and select stereo and then the input 5/6 wich is the piano lets say. So im able to hear the sound now and i can record it and so on eveything is fine up to this point. Lets say i created everything from above the same but instead rout a difrent output lets say 7/8 and kong drums. I record and stuff and it's ok. NOW COMES THE PROBLEM!!!!!! When i click on the different instrument say the piano , when i play the piano i hit the kong drums aswell even when they are at seperate output and even not selected. but when i click on kong drums again i hear the drums out of phase. i dunno if this is known to anyone or this is a new kinda bug? maybe there is something i have to click or something. i created more instruments and routed them but depending wich instrument i click i can hear some instruments togheter playing. well its really wierd and hard to explain. I hope someone out there have this resolved and know the way, i love using rewire mode and taking advantage of the RExtensions , so pretty please Hjälp!!!! I hope i made myself understandable! Best Tony |

none, if there is competition - meaning there is search .
What could be is- low competition- high search but not the other way around.
Yes i agree that it may happen like if there will be a rumor going around that the next big thing is going to be "blue pillows "(just an example, talking about something new ) , then yes, there will be a lot of sites,posts, ads indexed for this keyword ,and in the end no one will be interested in " blue pillows " , so yes, there will be high competition, but no search.

This is as close to Dark Lord as I have tasted. Big thick motor oil hopped up imperial stout you can stand a spoon in. An inch of brown head covers a hoppy mess of motor oil thickness that redefines beer in the Three Floyds tradition of redefining American brewing in the 21st century. Have one if you missed dark lord day or you cannot wait for the end of april for your next Dark Lord fix. The description says it is Revolution; the brew pub says it was brewed in collaboration with Three Floyds.
I also gave Dark Lord a lower score than all you crazy big beer folks. I can have 2 or 3 ounces once or twice a year.

Had this on tap at the brew pub, apparently just dropped and I was really excited to see Revolution get into some stronger beers. I felt a little odd as I was advised to try the Gomorrah (3.5 ABV, more of an easy dry stout) first but really this is more my speed. C'mon guys, promote the good stuff!
Had this one in a snifter, great dark color with a nice finger of foam.
Nice, dark and thick. Strong notes of malt with some coffee and hops for good measure. A noticeable but not overpowering booze quality at the end.
Mouthfeel was a tad weird, while generally thick it at times seemed to go down rather easy like it had no finish.
Not near the best stout I've ever had but this was really good and I could have happily made a night out sipping these if I had been staying for the evening. Not to evangelize excessively but this is what I've been waiting for from Revolution Brewing, something genuinely good and interesting, not just liquid fodder for those aiming for to look good drinking at a brewery instead of looking for something good to drink at a brewery. Really hoping for something similar if not better for the impending fall and winter months.

look: 3 | smell: 4 | taste: 3.5 | feel: 4 | overall: 4
A- motor oil black with a milk chocolate brown head that seemed inconsistent on tap. On one pour the chocolate-brown head took up 3/4 of the total pour and took several minutes to dissipate into a manageable 1-finger head. On another pour there was no head whatsoever and even when swirling the glass was difficult to generate any frothiness. The body was pitch black with no light getting through.
S- rich, sweet smells of chocolate, coffee, vanilla, cream, and maybe some dark berrry.
T- nice, sweet dark chocolate and mocha. a little bitter.
M- thick syrupie consistency, almost like you're drinking a mix of Nesquik Chocolate with a little milk. This is a true sipper that is dense, thick, and powerful--but you wouldn't want to drink too much of this. It's like liquid chocolate coffee cake. Or melted dark chocolate ice cream mixed with dark coffee. Whatever it is, it's good.
O- A very unique and powerful experience. I went back for several different rounds of this. The barrel-aged version is much more complex and enjoyable than regular Sodom, although I'd say that even the regular version is pretty rich and enjoyable.

Very deep rich dark brown pour. Good amount of tan-ish foamy head.
Aroma is malty chocolates, flavor comes through with more of the same, but the chocolate flavor takes on a very distinct bitter/baking chocolate aspect, with some hints of coffee. Mouthfeel was a bit odd IMO - sort of sticky and sweet like you'd expect, but with a strange chalkiness to it as it goes down. Slightly off-putting to me...
Overall a good beer and nice to see Revolution going with some collaborations and bigger styles. Looking forward to more from this brewery...
Would drink this one again.

On tap at the brewpub into a 5oz taster...A dark black pour with a nice dark tan head good retention and lacing...Aroma is SUPER sweet, tons of milk/cream type sweetness, light vanilla finish no typical choc/coffee/or bitterness I look for...Taste is also super creamy which kills the drinkability a bit for me. A little bitter coffee presents but again just too sweet.
An above average stout, but just too damn sweet!

look: 4 | smell: 4 | taste: 4 | feel: 4 | overall: 4.5
A - Black bodied beer with a brown head that had some moderate lace and good legs.
S - Roasted malts, molasses, caramel, mild coffee, a little dark fruit. Dark fruit tends to get bigger as it warms up.
T - Some decent roast, molasses, lots of dark fruit, chocolate. Just a slight bit of alcohol burn, but if you're into big beers not something that you'll likely notice or that will bother you.
M - Pretty big, full bodied, viscous. Lower carbonation.
O - Actually does compare pretty favorably to Dark Lord with the thickness and molasses/dark fruit notes. Good stuff, likely to be drank in smaller quantities.

Had on tap at 3 Floyds....
A- Pours a dark brown/black color. Half finger dark tan head which showed good retention for as little head as there was. Some light streaky lacing on the side as I drank it down.
S- Light roasted malts in the front that seem to get balanced out with a chocolate (dark) aroma. There is some darker fruits in the backend more so as it warms. Light molasses in the backend with a kiss of alcohol that tingles the nose. Very balanced in the aroma....I was surprisd that Floyds could control themself with that.
T- Roasted malts in the front of this kind of knocked me off my stool. A good fudge like chocolate takes over in the middle with some light darker fruits in the middle. Light coffee taste toward the ending with some alcohol in the tail end of the beer.
M- Heavy mouthfeel. Carbonation was light but worked well for the beer. A sweetness cover the palate with each sip showcasing the chocolate malts. Light alcohol with a burnt chocoalte flavor in the aftertaste. Flavors overall were blended well but showcased individual flavors. Palate was dryed after each sip from the alcohol.
D- This beer was a fantastic beer for both parties that were brewing it. As others have said it tasted like the better years of Dark Lord. A great drinker and could have got myself into trouble with this one.

Had on-tap at the brewpub, on release day (today). Just a very good, classic imperial stout. Smooth, slightly chewy, dark molasses and black licorice. Nice brown head. For being a pretty high-ABV beer, it went down pretty easily. I had no trouble with a snifter and could have done a second.

On-tap at the brewpub. Served in a 5oz pint-style glass.
A - Dark tan finger of foam that is pretty similar to Hunahpu's. - good retention, eventually settling to a thin cap, leaving behind spotty lace and a glass-coating film. Pitch black body.
S - Heavy roasted grain, caramel, coffee, dark bread, and some dark fruit character as it warms up. Thankfully this isn't overly heavy in char, ask, or burnt character. Good balance of sweet and roast qualities.
T - Heavy roast barley, dark chocolate, and a long lingering bitter espresso and earthy hop finish. Some spicy alcohol, as well as more sweet caramel, fudge, and dark fruits emerging as it warms.
M - Big, chewy, sticky, full body. Lots of residual sugary tooth-coating feel. Lower carbonation, but still enough to keep it from being too syrupy.
D - 5oz was a good size, and I definitely could have finished a snifter if I wasn't looking to try some other brews. Multiple pours would be excessive. Reminds me a little of some of the better Dark Lord vintages.

Consumed at the Three Floyds Brewpub.
Appearance -- A black abyss with a thin layer of deep brown head. Just beautiful.
Smell -- Lots of dark roast malt, molasses, dark chocolate, burnt brown sugar. Not especially aromatic, but what was there was exciting.
Taste -- Dark roast malt, burnt bread crusts, coffee grounds, molasses, dark brown sugar. A little bit of booze in the mix, but largely a rich mix of sweet and bitter/acrid dark roast flavors.
Mouthfeel -- FULL-bodied. As thick as Dark Lord, if not thicker. Chewy, viscous, amazing. Aside from the warmth, the alcohol was incredibly well-hidden.
Drinkability -- For anyone wishing that Dark Lord was more balanced, Sodom is the beer you seek. Thick and full-bodied with great depth of roast flavor *and* balance. Wish I could trade my bottles of Dark Lord for bottles of this. This beer probably has more to do with FFF, but it seems as though Revolution Brewing's hand helped to steady the ship. For Chicagoans it's a must-try beer!

Served on tap at GI Stout Fest.
A: thick black appearance, very dark head, little to no retention
S: deep roasted notes with a big sweet wave of molasses and caramel, notes of bold coffee in there as well, nice balance on the nose
T: all roast, not nearly as much of the sweet character like I got in the nose, great balance. Most imperial stouts this big tend to be a bit sweeter, this one maintains the nice dry roasty character that I love in smaller stouts.
MF: thick creamy, low carbonation
O: a nice bold and rich imperial stout. Revelution does not disappoint!

On tap at the Three Floyds brewpub.
Aroma:Lots of roasty notes, dark malt, chocolate, a little caramel.
Appearance:Black with dark brown foam.
Taste:Very dark roasted grains and Dark chocolate hit me on the first taste. The flavor slowly fades until all that is left is just a slight taste of dark chocolate. The hops are very well masked by the extreme darkness of this beer.
Mouthfeel:The mouthfeel on this beer is amazing. The body is hugely thick, with great carbonation that bubbles from my tongue to the back of my throat.
Drinkability:This is an amazing beer. Hugely dark chocolate. A little bit harsh on the throat. Very tasty. It's reminiscent of dark lord, but not nearly as sweet and flavorful.

I had this on tap at the brewpub, actually a 5oz sample as I wanted to try as many of their beers as possible. The menu description was "Thick Russian Imperial Stout brewed in collaboration with Three Floyds that really grabs you from behind and has its way with you".
The beer was dark brown with dark tan foam (no surprise). It smelled really sweet, a little roasted malt, some sweet esters, a little reminiscent of DL. There is a lot going on flavor-wise, very sweet but not as sweet as 09 DL, roasted malts but not to the point of being bitter, cocoa, plum, and raisin. Actually a lot of raisin as it sits longer.
The body is thick and viscous, again DL comes to mind. This really coats your mouth and gives a lasting taste. Excellent, if I see it again I'll get the full pour.

On tap @ The Great Taste of the Midwest (Madison, WI) on 8/14/10. Several samples served in a tasting mug.
Pours a pitch black, with a foamy covering of a burnt and angry colored mocha head. This keeps a nice looking foamy richness to it, leaving a robust cascade of lace and brown oils down the sides of the glass. The aroma is heavy and full in the nose with chocolate roast, burnt molasses, fried sugars, some vanilla, and a touch of herbal hops. This is pretty even in the nose with both sticky sweetness and dark roasty bitterness.
The taste is thick up front with notes of chocolate fudge, vanilla, maple syrup, and brown sugar, before giving way to a bitter backend of charred roasted malt and some fairly assertive earthy hop character. The finishes is quite memorable on this one, lingering with a LOT of leftover sticky tang and dry roasted bitterness. The mouthfeel is full bodied and thick, with a feeling that fills the mouth up with flavor. A combo of crispness and silkier chewiness underneath help accentuate that nicely even mix of heavy sweetness and aggressive bitterness. That 11% ABV is VERY nicely hid here, with some warmth emerging on the back of each swallow but otherwise not being detected by me at all.
When Three Floyds is involved, it's hard to not want to compare this to Dark Lord and while there are definitely a lot of similarities here, I really did appreciate the more toned down alcohol presence and higher bitterness levels that helped balance out a lot of the more sugary sweet aspects of this. And man, this was pretty smooth on the palate for such a big beer. This is a really nice collaboration here between two great breweries.

Yum, simple as that! Had on tap at FFF's brewpub in late August.
Appearance- Dark and lovely. Nice thick head that lasts and lasts.
Smell- A rich thick malty, roasty, almost oaky smell. I don't think this had a history in a wooden barrel, but the smell could've fooled me.
Taste- Even if I didn't know this was brewed in collab with FFF I would like to think I would've known because there are obvious traces of the beauty that is DL in here. Deep, rich flavors that are too complex to really be a draft only beer that is not going to be aged. The fact that this beer isn't going to be aged is a crime.
Mouth- Perfect! End of my notes.
Drink- For a big stout this is very drinkable.
I hope this beer is replicated and thrown in a bottle or a cask and pops up at DL-day '11.

Kyauktaw, Myanmar • At least 56 people were killed and nearly 2,000 homes destroyed in the latest outbreak of ethnic violence in western Myanmar, a government official said Thursday.
The 25 men and 31 women were reported dead in four Rakhine state townships in violence between the Buddhist Rakhine and Muslim Rohingya communities that re-erupted Sunday, local government spokesman Win Myaing said.

He said some 1,900 homes had been burned down in fresh conflict, while 60 men and four women were injured. It was unclear how many of the victims were Rohingya people and how many were Rakhine.
In June, ethnic violence in the state left at least 90 people dead and destroyed more than 3,000 homes. Tens of thousands of people remain in refugee camps.
The United States called for Myanmar authorities to take immediate action to halt the violence. The United Nations appealed for calm.
An Associated Press photographer who traveled to Kyauktaw, one of the affected townships 45 kilometers (75 miles) north of the Rakhine capital of Sittwe, said he saw 11 wounded people brought by ambulance to the local 25-bed hospital, most with gunshot wounds.
One was declared dead after arrival. All the victims being treated were Rakhine, but that could reflect an inability or unwillingness of Rohingya victims to be treated there.
A male volunteer at the hospital, Min Oo, said by telephone that five bodies, including one of a woman, had also been brought there. He said the injured persons were brought by boat from Kyauktaw town 16 kilometers (10 miles) away, and taken from the jetty by the ambulances.
An account by a Rakhine villager in the area suggested great confusion and tension. The villager said that when groups of Rakhine and the Rohingya had a confrontation, government soldiers shot into a crowd of Rakhine, even though, according to his claim, it had been dispersing. The villager would not give his name for fear of violent reprisals.
There have been concerns in the past that soldiers were failing to protect the Rohingya community, but the Rakhine villager's account hints that the military may have been defending the Rohingya in this case.

Curfews have been in place in some areas since June, and been extended to others due to the recent violence.
Tensions still simmer in part because the government has failed to find any long-term solution to the crisis other than segregating the two communities in some areas.
The United Nations called for calm Thursday in response to the new violence.
"The U.N. is gravely concerned about reports of a resurgence of inter-communal conflict in several areas in Rakhine State — which has resulted in deaths and has forced thousands of people, including women and children, to flee their homes," U.N. Resident and Humanitarian Coordinator in Myanmar Ashok Nigam said in a statement.
Nigam said the United Nations was appealing for "immediate and unconditional access to all communities in accordance with humanitarian principles."
The statement said large numbers of people fleeing the new violence were headed for already overcrowded refugee camps currently housing about 75,000 people previously made homeless.
"Short term humanitarian support and action towards long term solutions are urgently required to address the root causes of the conflict," said the statement.
In Washington, State Department spokeswoman Victoria Nuland said the U.S. was deeply concerned about the reports of increasing ethnic and sectarian violence in Rakhine state and urged restraint.
The unrest broke out days after the U.S. held what it described as an encouraging human rights dialogue with Myanmar — the latest sign of diplomatic re-engagement with the former pariah state, which has also seen the easing of sanctions to reward it for democratic reforms.
The unrest is some of the worst reported in the region since June, after clashes were set off by the alleged rape and murder of a Buddhist woman by three Muslim men in late May.
The crisis in Myanmar's west goes back decades and is rooted in a dispute over where the region's Muslim inhabitants are from. Although many Rohingya have lived in Myanmar for generations, they are widely denigrated as foreigners — intruders who came from neighboring Bangladesh to steal scarce land.
