2011 vintage drank with Anthony, Andrew and Joel
A - Pours a deep ebony colour with light visible, the head dies very quickly.
S - Tobacco , raisin, prunes , fig, dark chocolate.
T - Very sweet, with dark fruits and mollassis. no roast at all. The finish is boozy.
M - Moderate carbonation and surprisingly thin for a 15% stout, would describe as medium body.
O - Disappointed with this beer. I just don't get how overpowering sweetness translates into a world class beer. The ageing potential is there, and I would put down for 10 years or so before drinking

Pours pitch black with no head. Gurgles into the bottom of my snifter.
On the nose is cherries an dark fruits. Dark roast malts, bitter chocolate and hints of char and alcohol. I see why people are saying soy sauce. I definitely pick that up on the nose as well.
Taste is cherries, sweet molasses, sweet and dark malts. Dark fruits, sugar, char, a hint of vanilla. Very very sweet. Sweet to the point that its almost not drinkable. Wow. And again, definite soy sauce on the after taste. Very interesting. The more I drink and smell the more soy sauce begins to come out.
Mouthfeel is huge and chewy. One of the thickest stouts I've ever tried. Massive, massive, massive.
This beer isn't worth the hype at all. It's decent at best. Very very sweet but the soy sauce flavor and smell really ruined it for me. I think going to DLD really ups the ratings for a lot of people with the experience involved but oh well. Try it if you can.

A very dark thick pour with a finger of tan head. Smells very balsamic vinegar like, lots if oak, chocolate, molasses, licorice, roasted grains.
A very sugary sweetness, soy sauce, molasses, oak. Waaaay sweet flavor with a weird salty vinegar like flavor.
Full body, low carbonation, sweet dry finish.
Overall I am not impressed. I've had way better stouts from FFF, and way better local off the shelf stuff.

my review is for a bottle of 2011 vintage
pour very dark little to no head
smell is pretty heavy coffee
taste is not as much more of a smooth sweet but not overly sweet
i can see why a lot of people say soy sauce because i get a hint of that on the back end but not over powering
coffee taste is faint compare to the smell more of a sweet taste to it
it is a strong smooth nice stout but would say doesnt live up to the hype

2011/Yellow wax
Attractive, rich, heavy dark black color with minimal light brown head
Nose is heavy and sweet, with caramel, molasses, and chocolate shining through
Extremely unique stout, if nothing else. I'm not one for overly sweet and this beer gets a bit close to being too much, but yeah, it's still quite delicious. It has that sweet chocolately/creamy/caramely liqueur-like booziness to it that I've not experienced in any beer before. I also think it has an incredible mouthfeel (but I also haven't had too many aged stouts so perhaps time was on its side?)
Because of the complexity and monster body the thing has, I gave it a 4.5, but I wasn't super impressed with the overall flavor. The sweetness is a little odd to me – and at the end of the day it's all about balance and I just feel like a certain aspect of the flavor was a little much. But again, that's being hyper-critical as this beer is massive/unique, and I'd love to try another bottle.

look: 4 | smell: 4.5 | taste: 4.75 | feel: 4.5 | overall: 4.5
Practically zero head after the pour. A rich dark brown like bittersweet chocolate. Impossibly impermeable to light. Clings stickily to the side of the glass with a swirl.
S- Smells like roasted malt, warm liquor, espresso grounds, chocolate mousse. Sweet, but not so much so as the fresh batch at DLD.
T- Tobacco, dark chocolate, dark fruit, black coffee, chocolate mousse. And more and more. Still pretty damn sweet, so I'm definitely holding onto my remaining allotment for a minute.
Sticky thick and amazing on the tongue. Like a thicker plead the fifth. Wishing real hard right now for a barrel aged variant.
Definitely a hype monster. Also a unique enormous delicious beer. DLD is blast, so this beer wins points for sentimentality. I agree with the conjecture that there are comparable beers available on shelf, but it's fun to get on board with the whole experience of the festival in Munster. Yayayyyyyyyyy.

Phenomenal. Look, I get it where some of the hate comes in. I mean its now become such a cliche of itself in how hard it os to get this beer and you have to ask yourself is it that much better than other shelf (or easier to acquire) Stouts that its worth the trouble? If you look at it from the aspect of how awesome DLD is with all the generosity of stranger who bring their own bottles and that magical chance to win a golden ticket and land the godly Vanilla BADL then yes its worth it. Especially for me considering I just loves sweets and the fact that 2013 is basically an imperial stout sugar bomb is what makes it a 4.9/5 in my book. I have had 2010-2013 and 2013 is definitely my favorite because of the abundance of sweetness. I really don't like when the taste of soy sauce dominates the palate (namely the 2010 vintage) and while this beer holds up well aging I still say just drink it fresh. The other reviews nail it so no reason to say much else.
Side Note: if you are looking for a comparable shelf beer I strongly suggest Ten Fidy. I think it is by far the most similar shelf RIS and its a damned tasty beer also.

2013 bottle poured into a snifter. finally got to try this and didnt know exactly what to expect going in because of all the varying comments i see about this beer. after i drank it i could see why it is so polarizing. i dont even really know how to rate it because honestly this beer confused me. i can say its not really my style of a stout but it is still something i would look to get my hands on again.
the beer looks great when being poured, dark and thick with a thin head that dissipates pretty quick. the main smell i get from this beer is grapes, very sweet grapes. it really reminded me of mixed fruit or grape jelly. the taste for me was pretty much the same. if thats what they are going for when they made this beer then they nailed it. what this beer certainly does very well is cover the alcohol, i could hardly get any alcohol in the smell or taste.
overall id say this beer was quite good even though its not really my style. definitely one of kind as far as beers ive had but not really sure it meets the hype. there are much easier to find stouts that i prefer over this one but i will say that i hope to get a bottle or two of my own down the road just to have on hand when the mood hits or its time to share some. if im rating this beer based on my own preference it would be rated a little lower but im trying to give credit where its due.

600ml bottle served in a snifter glass.
I've bought this one at one of my last visits to California, in 2010. This is the 2010 Edition which can be recognized by the green wax on the bottle neck.
A: Pours a black color forming a small and bubbled tan head. Low retention and only few lacings left in the glass
S: Strong roasted malts, dark chocolate, dark fruits and wood. Excellent! Licorice and vanilla to compose. A bit boozy in the end
T: Sweet and roasted upfront. Notes of dark chocolate, coffee, roasted malts, oak, licorice, vanilla and dark fruits. Cherry notes. Complex. Maybe a bit too sweet and too booze in the end
M: Heavy, creamy and molasses body. Low carbonation. Smooth with a bittersweet and roasted and woody aftertaste
O: Great drinkability. A masterpiece. Worth the three years that I've wait to drink it

2011 vintage (reviewed 2012) thanks to beersis. Pours a lighter black (if possible) with almost no head.
Smell is sweet raisins and boozy. Dark red fruit. This smells way closer to an English Barley Wine than a RIS. Almost sickeningly sweet.
Taste is also very sweet and boozy. It has some roastiness and faint chocolate, but mostly the deep red fruit from the smell. Lots of alcohol heat for sure. It is very complex, I will admit that much.
Very waxy mouthfeel, full bodied. Heavy, and you can tell the abv is there, but still reasonably drinkable. A sipper.
Not what I was expecting, and not even close to one of my favorite RIS. First FFF I have been genuinely disappointed in. I now understand why this is described as a "sweet boozy mess".

2010 version!
A - pours near black minimal chocolate head and lacing. Not enough head to judge retention
S - tons of dark fruit and roasty medicine/soy type aromas
T - big sweetness and roasty flavors. Dark fruit/cherry medicine/alcohol burn flavors with some cherry. BIG flavor!
M - Full bodied with minimal carbonation, incredibly smooth
O - Tasty big beer. Cherry/alcohol burn are slightly offputting

2013 vintage
Aroma – dark cherries, fudge, caramel, a bit of alcohol, sugary sweetness, a touch of vanilla
Appearance – thin dissipating head, jet black, opaque, lacing that sticks to the glass
Mouth Feel – thick but not as thick as I remember from previous bottle, silky, coating, medium / low carbonation, slight alcohol warmth
Taste – similar to what I picked up in the aroma but with more depth than the aroma, sweet, fruity, complex, cark cherries, concord grapes, chocolate chips, a touch of coffee. The sweet, fruity complexities trump the roast found in other beers of this style
Overall – A huge thank you to jrmann1386 and his generosity! This was a very enjoyable bottle. I took over 45 minutes to savor this one. This beer is a fun interpretation of a big, bold stout – each taste enjoyable and complex.

2013 bottle
Appearance: Dark black opaque with a small tan head that quickly fades as expected.
Smell: Dark fruit, sweet malt, roasted grain, chocolate, caramel, apples, slight vanilla and some coffee. There's also a vinous like
Taste: Big, sweet and delicious! A ton of barley, caramelized malt, and surprising sweetness. It's also got this nice vanilla/caramel thing going on that even makes it taste like apples. It finishes dry, with a sweet and pleasant aftertaste of lingering caramel malt, coffee and chocolate. It is perfectly balanced, and this doesn't drink hot at all. If I did a blind test, there's no way I'd guess this was 15%, maybe 10. I can only imagine how good the barrel aged variants/aged vintages taste.
Mouthfeel: Not too big, not too small. Velvety smooth without too much body but definitely not thin; perfect for this beer.
Overall: Just a great beer I could drink all day (or at least try to). It's similar to DFH WWS, except it drinks way smoother fresh and has a bigger body. This didn't disappoint me at all and is IMO worthy of the praise it gets. DLD '14, here I come!

Trade from BrewMane. 2013 Orange Wax bottle, drinking fresh because cellars are for chumps ;-) Pours syrupy dark black with a sub-one-finger creamy dark mocha head. Aroma of sweet roasted malts, raisins, molasses, chocolate syrup, candy sugar, and a hint of alcohol smell. Flavor is sweet molasses up front, sweet powder sugar, a bit of dark fruit, a little bitter chocolate on the finish. Nearly no trace of the 15% abv. Sweet sweet stuff. Super velvety smooth mouthfeel and very thick. Only other stouts that have had this mouthfeel come from CCB (Hunapuh, Marshal Z). Plenty of carbonation to keep it from feeling syrupy. I was expecting more on the chocolate side, but this balances sweet molasses with dark fruits prominently. The best part to me of this decedent stout is the mouthfeel. So glad I finally got a taste of this. I can see how this would blend nicely with bourbon and vanilla. ISO now I guess...

Consumed during the second monthly "Beermageddon" with many others recently. 2013 vintage. Poured into a tulip glass from a 22oz bottle. Review is from my notes. Split with 7-8 other people. Even though this was the final beer I had from the night before I lost enough sobriety to review (or physically drink) any further beers, I'm reviewing this first because I have a lot to say about this one. I attended DLD, had a great time, and did indeed wait in line 3 and half hours to buy three of these. However, I learned over time more and more about criticisms of this thing (really, it's not a "beer" in my view) and also how much this polarizes people overall unlike probably any other offering in the country. Did it confirm these suspicions? Yes, and more! Read on.
Pours a thickened, motor oil, extremely viscous, resinous beast of an imperial stout. The brewers who crafted this definitely seem to have tried to make this the most over-the-top beer from the get-go, and it's evident in the appearance alone. Extremely opaque, which a soft, creamy milk chocolate covered head that quickly dissipates, leaving nothing behind. No lacing. No carbonation. Simply a putrid, dead, fortified wine looking beer. It actually is unlike any beer I've ever seen in that regard, although it's definitely very, very ugly and simultaneously pretty awesome.
The aroma is actually pretty great, combining loads of dark chocolate nibs with black cherries, currants, figs, and coffee extract in one giant load of sweetness and treacly, resinous manner. Extremely boozy, although it accentuates the sweetness within the initial phenols that make this pretty fascinating. Not as sugary sweet as I expected, but rather in the realm of sweetness imparted by brandies and Tawny port wines that I've had in the past. Other flavors linger, such as big molasses, caramel, vanilla, a dash of wood (?), and highly concentrated boozy caramelized notes. However, this all is pretty balanced here and comes in spades, but did not prepare me for what was about to happen next.
What happened next? I found myself pelted with a "stout" of the most extreme, harshest nature possible, resembling a combination of a chocolate liqueur, a sweet brandy, and port wine. Absolutely overwhelms the senses right away, combined a slightly burnt brown sugary, syrupy flavor with cherries, molasses, currants, blackberries underneath jaggery and caramel notes. Not as chocolate forward as I like it, and the coffee that this was infused with is nowhere to be found. The alcohol adds a ridiculous amount of sweetness to the beer, but it is also scarily hidden, resulting in an experience that knocks you off your feet if you're not careful. There's a lot of residual sugars and caramelized flavors, but what it makes up in decadence it lacks completely it complexity. No subtlety here, so don't seek this out if it's what you like in the style. The mouthfeel is decent at best, and while it does indeed lack extra carbonation, its sludgy feel reminds me of a heavily tannic and extra sweet port wine (a type of drink I enjoy) rather than a beer, so it's not horrible by any means - only average-minus for the style at hand, and in some ways unlike *anything* within the style. Pretty insane, and it's hard to know what FFF was going for here other than attempting to make the most "ballsy" beer possible, if that.
I know FFF is capable of subtle, delicious beers, and I realize this beer is an excuse to make one of the most ridiculous beers around and create an event out of it in a demented (and some would say brilliant) marketing scheme. I had a lot of fun at DLD for other reasons, but the outcome is definitely disappointing. However, with that said, this does get a high-ish overall score from me because no matter how cloying and grating the drinking experience of this beer is, it's easily one of the most memorable I've had, for better or for worse. It's by far my new favorite crappy beer, because as awful and unbalanced as it may be, it's a lot of fun to drink and is the most intimidating in the style - which is probably exactly what FFF is going for. If you want to see how an imperial stout *shouldn't* be made, but still want one to sample what could be THE hyperbole of craft beer, give this a shot. It definitely is worthy of discussion alone, whatever the hell it is.

2009 dark lord had on 6/16/2013 at craftheads in Tokyo.
Pours like motor oil with no head. Almost black but a lttle brown comes through.
Smell just a little booze big dark fruit a vanilla notes. With a little chocolate in the background. A little oxidation from the 4 years of age.
Taste big coffe bitterness yet sweet vanilla and bakers chocolate shine through. No booze in the taste.
Feel almost silky smooth with the right amount of carbonation.

Nice red wine color upon pouring. Taste is very sweet and sticky. Very complex but i mostly get dark fruits, raisins, figs, and prunes. Its too sweet and almost cloying. Also the mouthfeel is too much, too thick. Very greatful i got to try this but this thing needs at least a year on it. No alcohol burn which is impressive but far from my fav stout.

had a 2012 bottle on my birthday last year shortly after dark lord day. pours black and quite viscous. aroma of charred fruits, chocolate, and subtle coffee. the flavor hits you with massive sweetness but a velvety texture that coats your mouth and is slightly balanced with some mild bitter coffee notes throughout. very complex. definitely reminds me of a port wine. you really need to be able to enjoy sweentess if you are going to like/appreciate this one. i loved it.

2011 Vintage (Yellow Wax)
Appearance: Very dark brown bordering on black with a small beige head. Good looking beer.
Smell: Brown sugar, cherries, chocolate and a coffee/roasted malt aroma. Nice nose on this one.
Taste: Brown sugar, cherries, chocolate and mild coffee/roasted malt notes. The finish is fairly sweet, even after 2 years of aging.
Mouth-feel: Full-bodied with a moderate level of carbonation appropriate tor the style. Great mouth-feel for the style.
Overall: No doubt it's sweet as many have said but there is enough going on in the taste profile to make it a good beer.

The infamous Dark Lord. This was one of the first highly touted US imperial stouts that I tried back in 2010 and I was thrilled about it. The green wax 2010 vintage was very much enjoyed as well, earning a solid 4.0 score. Since then, I've been introduced to lots of other imperial stout beer from all over the world, and whenever I get to try another vintage of Dark Lord, it always sucks. Every time I am curious if the beer has changed or if my palate has just moved on. Well, on the night before Tour de Gueuze 2013, in a dark, dank corner of Moeder Lambic's cellar, a bunch of us got together to line up the complete vintage as well as all the BA variants. Finally, the chance to try the 2010 again, and the chance to see what Dark Lord is really made of. Thanks to everyone for making this fun day finally happen.
From a bomber into a snifter
The entire vertical
The review is for the 2010 still, but there are lots of notes for comparison.
APPEARANCE: Pours relatively clear for an imperial stout, producing a small, one finger medium-looking head that quickly fades to a wisp and ring. Black body in the glass with some carbonation evident. Only a ring remains until the end and leaves no real lacing down the glass. A little too light a pour and an average head at best. The 2011 and 2012 are even lighter than this one, while older vintages, starting with the 2010, are somewhat darker. The 2007 was almost flat while the 2006 had a bit more carbonation and better lacing, surprisingly enough.
SMELL: Pretty bold nose of roasted malts, molasses, and lots of dark cherries and a faint port wine aroma as a base underneath. A good dose of booze on the nose as well; more so than any other vintage. Not bad, and the stronger alcohol makes it more interesting. The '09 and '08 had lots of molasses and soy on the nose, making it off-putting, while older vintages were starting to go south. That said, the '05 and '04 were not as far off as I'd expected. Newer vintages are much different. The 2011 had a very pronounced coffee aroma while the 2012 was just disgusting, dominated by green apple acetaldehyde.
TASTE: Not bad at all, and definitely the best of the vertical. Roasted malts with sweet molasses and dark fruit notes again. Some nice port wine comes through the middle and into the finish, accompanied by a good dose of alcohol. A long and bold aftertaste of sweet molasses, port and boozy flavors, as well as some bitter chocolate and coffee as balance. Pretty decent really. The '09, '07, '06 and '04 were all overly sweet and cloying, with lots of soy and molasses flavors dominating the show. Pretty rough to drink really. The '08 and '05 shared a certain bitterness that was appreciated, while the '11 showed a lot of coffee flavor and the '12 a lot of nastiness. Green apples and stout beer never go well together. Surprisingly, the 2005 and 2004 were only slightly oxidized, and many people agreed that the bitterness in the '05 was a nice change.
PALATE: These were all basically the same. Fuller body with medium levels of carbonation. Creamy enough on the palate, goes down smooth with an appropriate and well-measured alcohol burn at the back right after the swallow, finishing quite mouth-coating. There is definitely something added to this beer that makes the feel this full. Some of the older vintages were just too cloyingly sweet, and the 2009 and 2004 were the thickest of the bunch.
OVERALL: When I first reviewed it back in September 2010, it was probably the first well-hyped US stout I'd ever drunk. I enjoyed the 2010 back then and scored it a 4.0, and to be honest, my opinion on the 2010 hasn't really changed. It's a good beer that I would gladly drink again. The look is perhaps a little lack-luster, but the sweet malt profile is actually balanced by a good bed of booze and alcohol, making this one a big task, but not an impossible one. If I ever see a 2010 again, I wouldn't mind tackling it myself.
Compared to the rest of the vertical, the 2010 is a diamond in the rough. As for the other vintages, the 2011 was quite coffee forward and actually half-decent, making it unique in the vertical, and the bitterness in the '08 and '05 made those vintages mildly tolerable. However, all the other years were just nasty in their own special way. The 2009 and older years are plagued by an overly sweet flavor profile and soy qualities, while the 2012 is just an acetaldehyde train wreck. The '06, '05 and '04 are starting to go as well, though to be fair, they weren't nearly as past their prime as I had expected.
In the end, this was a really fun vertical to drink. There was lots of variation between the years, and getting to try them all at once was really fun and entertaining. This experience definitely confirmed that Dark Lord is generally a terrible beer. Luckily there was a 2010 to save the show, as this was by far the best of the bunch. Thanks again everyone. This was great!

Three Floyds Dark Lord 2013
Appearance: Dark Lord lives up to its name. It pours an extremely dark brown, perhaps even to the point of being black. There is just a half-centimeter of dark tan head, which is not surprising in its relative absence. The lacing is spotty and minimal, and the alcohol legs are just as intense as the color of the pour. This is a typical looking Russian imperial stout, and, at 15% ABV, it cannot be faulted too much for the lack of head.
Aroma: Huge notes of chocolate, vanilla, coffee, and alcohol jump out of the glass immediately. It smells very sweet to the point of smelling like double chocolate chip cookies. There is a very mild hop presence, but thankfully it appears Three Floyds did not do their signature over-hopping to this beer. The hops combined with the strong alcohol aromas, an underlying cherry, dark fruit, and anise aroma all help to cut the almost overwhelming sweetness. This is a very complex smelling beer, but it is also a bit sweet smelling.
Taste: Apparently the rumors about Dark Lord are true. The beer is just a little too sweet, and the sweetness is not cut by anything really. The hop presence is still there, but in a sweet hop oil capacity rather than a cutting bitterness. The alcohol also just is not enough, in fact it is a sweet alcohol, which only adds to the sweetness. There is just a touch of the green apple flavor that the 2013 batch was rumored to have, but it meshes well with the rest of the beer for the most part, especially well with the cherries and the dark fruit. The chocolate and coffee are there, but it is more of a mocha than the bitterness one would expect from these qualities in a stout. It is a very complex beer, but it is a little bit too cloying.
Mouthfeel: The mouthfeel is perhaps the best part of this beer. It is velvety, creamy, slick, oily, warming, and thick. It is everything that a Russian imperial stout should be. There is nothing more to say.
Overall: If only this beer was more balanced. It does not quite live up to the hype, but it is still certainly a great beer. Three Floyds has a reputation for pushing the envelope, and I think it fell right off the table on this one. It is still a very good beer, but it is not worth jumping through the hoops that you must to get it. Try it, but do not trade your left arm for it. 18/20

Impromptu first review, just finished this bottle and figured it would be a good one to start reviewing with.
2011 bottle, served at 50-55 degrees in a snifter.
A- Jet black, a mocha head quickly appears during the pour but quickly dissipates to nothing. Some alcohol legs.
S- Extremely sweet- Cherries, molasses, and alcohol. No roast or coffee detected.
T- Very sweet, but not overly so. I can taste cherries, figs, molasses, and a bit of an alcohol bite. Finishes like a port, absolutely delicious.
M- Silky smooth, a bit of alcohol bite but it is an easy sipper.
O- This is an excellent beer, but I feel it could use another year or two and hopefully some of the sweetness will die down. It was very enjoyable, and surprisingly I could have drank quite a bit more than the half a bottle I had without getting the full feeling I sometimes get from RIS.

Opened a bottle of 2013 Dark Lord last night. I have to say, it was a grand disappointment. After pouring in a tulip glass, I gave it whiff and was caught off guard by the interesting, funky nose on the beer. The flavor, however, was far worse. Overwhelmingly sweet, bland, and metallic. There are minimal tasting notes here, as it literally tasted like sugar, metal, roasted barley, and cardboard.
May have had a bad bottle - will update I find different results with other bottles.

I had a 2012 bottle of Dark Lord, aged roughly one year. Thick, caramel colored head. Very sweet and syrupy in taste, almost like molasses, also a slight hint of cherries. Dark brown in color. Alcohol is masked very well for something being 15 percent. Overall, a great brew, strongly recommended if you enjoy stouts.

2008 vintage, black wax. I've had Dark Lord fresh before, but never aged.
A- Black, thick, the yeast at the end of the pour is so thick it's crazy. There is small head on the beer that dissipates quickly.
S- Very, very sweet. I definitely picked up some molasses, and lots of chocolate. There is a slight hint of coffee, along with plums and raisins. Dark fruit comes out a lot just because of the bitterness and sweetness. The aroma is pretty boozy as well.
T- First sip is incredible. Unbelievably smooth, all of the booziness in the aroma is gone. Definitely has a dark chocolate/dark coffee kind of bitterness to it, in fact chocolate was the most distinct flavor for me. The aftertaste lingers for a while with lots of burnt chocolate notes. It gets sweeter as it warms up but surprisingly it's not as sweet as the 2012 vintage was last year.
M- Really thick, but what else would you expect? Honestly I think Dark Lord has the perfect mouthfeel for a stout. Chewy, but still has enough carbonation after 5 years of being in the bottle.
O- This was a real treat. I've heard before that 2008 is the best vintage, and just judging by having it fresh last year, I'd have to agree. It isn't overly sweet, it's crazy smooth, and all of the flavors I'd want in a stout are present. I wouldn't go after years 2009-2012 just from what I've heard, but this vintage is absolutely worth seeking out. Finally I found a non-barrel aged RIS that I enjoyed more than Marshal Zhukov's.

A soldier who died from wounds suffered in a shooting incident in Afghanistan has been described by his family as their "guardian angel" and "hero".
Captain James Townley, 29, from the Corps of Royal Engineers, died in Camp Bastion, Helmand Province, in southern Afghanistan from wounds sustained while serving at forward operating base Shawqat on Friday.
His family said in a statement: "James was a wonderful, loving and caring son and brother.
"He was devoted to his girlfriend, Helen.
"He was our guardian angel and our hero. We were so proud of him. He touched every part of our lives and his loss has left a huge chasm that we can never fill.
"James will never be forgotten and always in our hearts and thoughts."
The Ministry of Defence (MoD) said Captain Townley's death was not thought to be the result of hostile action, though an investigation into the circumstances was continuing.

R1- Lets keep this thread clean of personal dislikes and on topic.
What is your input on Soy Protein raising estrogen? I've read that the process of which soy protein is extracted uses alcohol, which depletes more than 98% of phyto-estrogen content.
"You know the fun thing about the soy protein debate is people only hear what they want to hear, yes soy protein contains phyto-estrogen base which does highly mimic the properties of human estrogen, but the strange thing is under low doses phyto estrogen actually attaches itself to human estrogen cells making the body believe there is more estrogen in the body so it actually lowers it's estrogen production to comphensate, yet phyto estrogen doesn't have all the catabolic properties as normal human estrogen."
It seems to be a torn discussion. There are studies proving both sides. I personally think it does not affect hormones to any measurable degree. Any insight on the subject is appreciated
Both sides of the argument so read carefully.
Three dietary intervention studies have reported the effects of soy or soy phytoestrogen consumption on reproductive hormones in men. Habito et al. (38) performed a randomized crossover study of 42 men with a mean age of 45.7 y who consumed 150 g lean meat or 290 g tofu (containing ∼70 mg isoflavones) daily for 4 wk. Blood concentrations of estradiol, testosterone, dihydrotestosterone and androstanediol glucuronide did not differ between the two diets. The mean testosterone-estradiol ratio was 10% lower (P = 0.05), SHBG was 9% higher (P = 0.01), and the free androgen index (total testosterone/SHBG × 100) was 7% lower (P = 0.06) after tofu consumption. This slight reduction in androgen activity was not confirmed by Nagata et al. (39), who reported a parallel-arm study of 34 men with a mean age of 32.4 y, one-half of whom consumed an average of 343 mL soymilk (containing ∼48 mg isoflavones) daily for 2 mo. Blood concentrations of estradiol, total and free testosterone, and SHBG did not differ between the two groups, although estrone concentrations tended to decrease in the group consuming soymilk. These results are generally consistent with those of Mitchell et al. (30), who found no changes in serum concentrations of estradiol, testosterone, follicle-stimulating hormone or luteinizing hormone in men consuming a tablet containing 40 mg/d of soy isoflavones.This is a part of an article i found:
IGF, Thyroid, and the Girly Hormones
It's fairly clear that soy protein lowers testosterone levels. How does it affect estrogen and progesterone levels? You'd figure that genistein would at least reduce the activity of estrogen to some extent, since it binds at the same receptor site, right? Well, apparently not. It turns out that genistein does not inhibit the effects of estradiol and in fact has been demonstrated to exert an additive effect when combined with estradiol.(2,8)
This means that they don't interfere with one another and can both exert the same negative effects at the same time, thus, packing a double punch. Furthermore, genistein may potentially increase estradiol levels as well. It's thought that this may occur because genistein may deconjugate estrone in the gut and allow for it to reabsorb into the bloostream and convert to estradiol.(9)
It's possible that it may also exert some progestational activity.(10) Even worse is that the estrogenic activity of these phytoestrogens may have been underestimated in the past, as there is evidence that they may be much more potent in vivo as opposed to in vitro [test tube] studies.(11) Oh, and while we're still on the topic or hormones, soy protein has also been shown to decrease IGF-1 concentrations in male rats.(12) Oh, and I'd feel bad if I forgot to mention that it can lower T4 levels, too.(13)There is a fair amount of info out there that shows no support for soy protein feminizing men or affecting men, but if nothing else, common sense should prevail. There are entire cultures that have soy-based diets that do not seem to be ridden with men w/ breasts or anything like that. There is evidence that isoflavones can have anti-estrogenic activity as well. This is not to mention the fact that many of the SPI's on the market (almost all of them are SPI, not SPC) do not contain isoflavones.

PES - Get Enhanced
The above is my own opinion and does not reflect the opinion of PES
None directly at each other in this thread, but we have a negative history.
what's to be settled in this debate anyways? lets just say soy doesn't give you gyno or make you start your period... are people going to stop drinking whey and replace it with soy?
I don't get it...
Attempting to settle the theory that soy protein augments estrogen? I thought the OP was quite transparent.
I didn't post this in regards to my personal dislike for another member, I posted it so the question can be answered, as there seems to be a very split decision on the matter.
Doesn't affect this guy. Enough with the dick measuring.
The point is that based on available research, soy protein isolate should be considered a viable choice for protein supplementation.
There is a chance, I'll admit, that a complete dietary replacement of chicken, beef, milk, fish proteins in favor of soy could make a small, imperceptible difference in hormone profiles. I'd say this effect, while perhaps unlikely, has not been definitively ruled out just yet.
What we're arguing about, though, is supplementation. Will 30-60g per day of SPI-90 hurt your gains/make you unhealthy? I just don't think so, and I hope Pat can shed some light on this. This is a particularly relevant question because whey protein is getting damn expensive and SPI-90 offers a decent taste, nice nutrition profile, and cheap alternative.
i was talking to douglas kalman recently who said that he studied a group of males ingesting soy protein powder (a substantial amount per day) and after a period of time they showed no disturbance in hormone levels
i think soy protein powder is ok but i would limit it to 30 -40 grams a day still just to be safe

The Soy hysteria on this board is laughable. I remember a thread where a guy was going to the supermarket and looking through every single brand of tuna to find one that had no trace amounts of soy. He was thinking the soy in the tuna was going to make him grow boobs.
So since most get that amount from shakes per day, personally I do 2 shakes when needed which is 40gPRO, would you agree that soy protein supplementation is safe in regards to null effects on hormones and is a viable option?
Its out of control, soy doesn't give you man boobs. ****ty genetics do.
Does soy taste better or something? ...
Myofibrillar protein synthesis following ingestion of soy protein isolate at rest and after resistance exercise in elderly men.
Yang Y, et al. Show all
Nutr Metab (Lond). 2012 Jun 14;9(1):57. [Epub ahead of print]
Abstract ABSTRACT:
BACKGROUND: Increased amino acid availability stimulates muscle protein synthesis, however, aged muscle appears less responsive to the anabolic effects of amino acids when compared to the young. We aimed to compare changes in myofibrillar protein synthesis (MPS) in elderly men at rest and after resistance exercise following ingestion of different doses of soy protein and compare the responses to those we previously observed with ingestion of whey protein isolate.
METHODS: Thirty elderly men (age 71 +/- 5 y) completed a bout of unilateral knee-extensor resistance exercise prior to ingesting no protein (0 g), or either 20 g or 40 g of soy protein isolate (0, S20, and S40 respectively). We compared these responses to previous responses from similar aged men who had ingested 20 g and 40 g of whey protein isolate (W20 and W40). A primed constant infusion of L-[1-13C]leucine and L-[ring-13C6]phenylalanine and skeletal muscle biopsies were used to measure whole-body leucine oxidation and MPS over 4 h post-protein consumption in both exercised and non-exercised legs.
RESULTS: Whole-body leucine oxidation increased with protein ingestion and was significantly greater for S20 vs. W20 (P = 0.003). Rates of MPS for S20 were less than W20 (P = 0.02) and not different from 0 g (P = 0.41) in both exercised and non-exercised leg muscles. For S40, MPS was also reduced compared with W40 under both rested and post-exercise conditions (both P < 0.005); however S40 increased MPS greater than 0 g under post-exercise conditions (P = 0.04).
CONCLUSIONS: The relationship between protein intake and MPS is both dose and protein source-dependent, with isolated soy showing a reduced ability, as compared to isolated whey protein, to stimulate MPS under both rested and post-exercise conditions. These differences may relate to the lower postprandial leucinemia and greater rates of amino acid oxidation following ingestion of soy versus whey protein.
This thread is not about taste or anything like that. It is simply in regards to "Will soy give me gyno?" "Does soy raise estrogen?" threads and how a select few jump on it and say "Yea, it raises estrogen, dont take it"

Argentine crew prevents Ghana from moving ship
ACCRA, Ghana (AP) — Sailors aboard an Argentina navy sailing ship seized in a billion-dollar international debt controversy brandished weapons to block Ghanaian officials from moving the vessel to a less busy dock, an official of the Ghana Ports and Harbors Authority said Saturday.
Crewmen on the ARA Libertad showed their rifles to deter Ghanaian officials from boarding the South American ship Thursday, Kumi Adjei-Sam, the corporate affairs manager of the ports authority, told The Associated Press.
Ghana's government has not commented on the show of force against officials of this African nation.
Ghanaian judge Richard Agyei-Frimpong ruled last week that the Libertad should be moved from its current position while Argentina fights a court order to hold the ship against payment of $1.3 billion to a group holding bonds on which Argentina defaulted in 2002.
Ports officials say the ship's current location prevents other vessels from berthing, costing the agency tens of thousands of dollars a day in lost fees.
Argentina's Defense Ministry issued a statement Friday saying the ship will not budge while the detention order is being appealed.
It said the ship's crew, under orders from Buenos Aires, pulled up the gangplank to prevent Ghanaian authorities from boarding. In response, Ghana shut off water and electricity and brought a crane to lift officials onto the ship to move it.
"An order was for the crew to show up on the deck, with its regular weapons, with the purpose of dissuading any attempt to board it," the Argentine ministry said.
The ministry said the Ghanaians should stop "illegal measures such as forcing us to move and cutting off basic supplies, which represent a violation on our sovereignty and an act of hostility."
Ghanaian courts ordered the ship detained Oct. 2 in response to U.S. court decisions in favor of investors holding bonds on which Argentina defaulted.

Honestly the Droid 3's keyboard would've been perfect if the characters that are accessible by pushing SYM (with two button presses) could be accessed by an ALT keypress on the number keys. If then made it like that, the SYM key could've been a home or back key.

What can you find in cell phones or electronics that isn't like cars in that context?
If you come around to accepting fact that the smartphone industry is a fast-moving one that's easy to get left behind in and doesn't show any sign of slowing down anytime soon, you can understand that there are programs that are designed to help you keep up with them, like the Best Buy Buy Back Program and AMEX Premium Purchase Protection.

I do not disagree with your point of view, however the Droid industry is a fast-moving product because of the different vendor that this industry carries (it's not a bad thing because we have a lot options). The only issue that I am seeing, is the fact that I am buying a new phone today and there is a new version of my phone tomorrow.

James Harden is nothing if not consistent. The Rockets guard proved that on Monday night, sticking to his free throw tradition midway through the second quarter against the Heat. After drawing a clear-path foul and heading to the line for two freebies, Harden performed his usual routine of high-fiving his teammates following his first make. The only problem? Harden didn't have any teammates there to congratulate him. He followed through anyway, air-fiving some invisible teammates before draining the second. Harden finished the night with 22 points, with none coming in a more entertaining fashion than this one. Check it out in the video below.

If any of you are unfamiliar with his work in the early run of Mad, go and get any of the great reprints available. They do not disappoint and hold up as some of the best comic artworks ever. No hyperbole.
Long Live Chicken Fat!

I'll certainly miss the guy.
As I said in my blog, "Like a child growing strong bones from drinking milk every day, the subconscious development of my humor and creativity grew strong from regular doses of Will Elder's work."

Bill Elder had some of the absolute best panels ever seen in Mad Magazine. "Restaurant" was an all-time favorite, as was his take on Tarzan and Popeye.
Tony Moore says:
Elder's work definitely made a huge impression on me in my formative years. From Mad to Playboy, he helped steer my young mind and creative outlook. He and John Severin teamed up on those Two-Fisted Tales stories still give me goosebumps.
if you aren't acquainted with his stuff, do yourself a favor and remedy your situation post-haste.

The landscape of daytime television will dramatically change next year when soap operas All My Children and One Life to Live go off the air, cancelled after more than 40 years on television. No one knows what the demise of these shows will mean for television and for the affected actors better than Guiding Light veteran and one of daytime's favorites, Kim Zimmer. We caught up with Zimmer, who just released I'm Just Sayin'!: Three Deaths, Seven Husbands, and a Clone! My Life as a Daytime Diva (New American Library, August 2011), to talk with her about her life and lessons she's learned.
Kim Zimmer as Reva ShayneZimmer, a four-time Emmy-winning actress, is known around the world for her 27- year portrayal of Reva Shayne on the popular daytime drama Guiding Light. While on the show, Zimmer played a vixen, a manic-depressive, an Amish woman, a time traveler, a Civil War belle, a talk-show host, a cancer survivor, a loving mother and a devoted wife. But now in her new memoir, Zimmer shares the story of the woman behind Reva — from her beginnings as a small-town Midwestern girl to landing one of the greatest roles in the history of daytime television and becoming a soap opera icon. She is blatantly honest and wildly entertaining as she takes readers on an insightful journey through the parallel lives of Reva Shayne and Kim Zimmer and chronicles the stories behind Guiding Light, the longest-running drama in television and radio history (a whopping 72 years!). Here's what she wants to share with readers. Actresses have work and family challenges, tooSheKnows: What inspired you to write I'm Just Sayin'! and who are you writing it for (young women, soap fans, those interested in self-help, anyone, everyone, etc.)?Kim Zimmer: I was moved to write the book because of the out pouring of love and concern from the many fans of our show. They had questions as to why and how they could take it off the air. So the book started out as a reply to the questions I was asked at events across the country, but quickly evolved into a reflection of my life in the world of daytime television. I never intended to write a memoir but I think when you've spent as many years (28) with a family of people, all working together to create a show we created 5 days a week for 57 + years, there are memories to share! I have spoken to non-soap opera people who have read the book and come away with a new understanding of not only the soap opera genre, but also actors who have the challenges of work and family. There is always more to a storySheKnows: In your book, you talk about your challenges with alcohol. For readers who've not yet picked up I'm Just Sayin'!, can you describe how alcohol impacted your career?Kim Zimmer: I never had a "struggle" with alcohol -- it was more a case of having a glass of wine with lunch to smooth the edges of a stressful day on the job. There were days and weeks that would go by when I didn't have a glass of wine. I know that there are people who want to believe I was going to work drunk everyday -- that was not the case and if they read the book they will understand more about where the "drinking" came into play. I am not an alcoholic and have never had a struggle with alcohol. I do enjoy wine with dinner and on occasion have overindulged and one of those evenings ended with a DUI. It was stupid and irresponsible and I have learned a very valuable lesson from the consequences of my actions on that specific evening -- don't drink and drive! It's as simple as that! Look at every experience as a valuable lessonSheKnows: What was the outcome of your DUI?Kim Zimmer: Via court order, I had to attend a number of AA meetings as well as a DUI class for three months. I must say that I learned so much about the human condition in those meetings. I learned a lot about myself as well. I never dreaded going to the meetings because they were a lifeline for so many who struggle with this awful disease. Secret to marital happinessSheKnows: You've been married for 30 years -- what are you and your husband's secrets to staying happily married?Kim Zimmer: I truly believe that it all comes down to respect for each other and most importantly, maintaining a sense of humor no matter how difficult things can be at times in a relationship. My husband and I both come from a long line of marital longevity, which I'm extremely proud of. Common sense for health and beautySheKnows: What are your secrets to staying healthy and beautiful?Kim Zimmer: Wow, that's the nicest thing you could have said to me! LOL! I'm a bit bohemian in my approach to health and beauty. I did have a partial facelift when I turned 40 (16 years ago) but I haven't tried Botox or collagen, and when I look in the mirror, it's pretty obvious. I do the basics, though: I eat well; I don't exercise nearly as much as I should, but I also go by the "if it ain't broke, don't fix it!" religion. I have learned that the basic checkups, at least at my age, do become vital. Mammograms, paps ... I have yet to schedule a colonoscopy but that's next on my list! SheKnows: Where can your fans find you these days?Kim Zimmer: If they check my website KimZimmer.net they will see where and what I'm doing! Thanks!

Black Kids Suffer More from Prenatal Tobacco Exposure, Study Suggests
Low-level prenatal tobacco exposure was "associated with deficits in both motor and cognitive development, but only for black children," said Kimberly Yolton, Ph.D., detailing the findings of a study recently presented at the annual meeting of the Pediatric Academic Societies.
Researchers studied developmental differences among 242 white and black children, ages 1 and 2, who had been exposed to tobacco smoke prior to birth. Only children of mothers with measurable amounts of the nicotine metabolite cotinine were studied; about 30 percent of the study subjects were smokers or reported exposure to secondhand smoke, but many others still had measurable cotinine in their blood, suggesting that they had been unwittingly exposed to tobacco smoke.
Yolton, a researcher at Cincinnati Children's Hospital Medical Center, noted that nicotine concentrations can be 15 times higher in fetal blood than in their mothers' bloodstream.

Story Updated: Jan 9, 2013 at 9:48 PM AKDT
ANCHORAGE - An Alyeska Ski Resort tram remains closed a week after harsh winds crashed a tram car into a tower on New Year's Eve.
Three employees and 2 guests were stranded from more than 5 hours until help arrived.
According to reports Catie Quinn, 15, suffered a cut to her head and a concussion when a 45 mph gust of wind sent her tram car into a 150 ft tower.
Officials say about 80 people dining at Seven Glaciers, the resorts mountain top restaurant, were evacuated by snow cat and chairlift.
The resort says they have flown in specialists to inspect and help repair the tram, which they say could take a couple of weeks. Currently officials say they would like to open both the restaurant and the tramway before the season is over.
Since the incident the resort has opened chair six to help facilitate those getting up the mountain.
The tram will remain closed until all repairs are complete.

For the price, you can't beat it....low profile, rolls comfortably, but isn't too flimsy. Just don't use it as a ladder to reach any shelves, you'll have a bad time.

After having watched one of these suffer all manner of abuse and indignities from a wide assortment of dubious characters who have tromped across our Shop floor over the last dozen years, and having noted that the only repair made on that specimen was the replacement of the padding with a similar sized piece of 1 1/2" soundproofing foam, said repair having been made some YEARS before the occasion of my employment- I bought one for my own use at home.Some reviewers have made complaints about this little guy, maybe they got a bad piece of particle board on theirs, but for twenty bucks or so, you'll get your money's worth even if it only lasts for the warranty period (home use).

This is a very solid constructed creeper. With that being said, the seat cushion is way too hard and firm. I have another brand creeper that is far more comfortable. I use this as a back-up or for guests who are "helping" me do repairs.

It feels like its been a long time since I have done speed squats (it's actually been three weeks). On top of that I had set up this three week cycle thinking I would just be doing regular box squats. Add in the foam and the weights are a little high. In fact I think i may stick with the foam for a while. Box squats so early in the morning is tough on my back so the foam will ease some of the impact.
So the local meet that I was going to do has been cancelled, so I am thinking of possibly doing IPA Sr. Nationals or wait and see if the local meet is rescheduled and just do that one. I will probably aim to do the Jersey Power Challenge at the end of January.

So I was definetly feeling a bit off today. No PR's. I think that I may have pushed it on the 455 Reverse Band on Tuesday, especially since I followed that up with shirt work. I was going to go for 5 on the 340 to set a PR on the 3 Board but after 3 reps I figured it was best to back off a bit and shut it down. I may also have needed to take a warmup set or two with the 3 board to get used to the board right after using the foam. Speed work was super fast but thats probably more due to the foam than anything else. My whole upper back is fried right now and I really cant figure out why.

nice PR!
Thanks Lones! The PRs have been coming every week and I am very grateful for that. Of course when you start counting rep PRs on a **** ton of exercises it becomes much easier to count them. But progress is progress, right?. On the 2-Board I had no lift off so who knows maybe I could hit 8. But, I will save it for another day. It has taken me 12 years to figure out that training to failure does not work for me.
I cant remeber if i responded to your last email.... My brain is mush...
If you can resend it to me and shoot me a text to remind me

nice dynamic workout man
Thanks Man! Speed was a little lacking today as I was dead tired this morning. But I was determined to NOT lower the weight since I will be deloading next week. Stupid is as stupid does. Or I could just put in my head that DE day is not really speed day anymore. In that case I should have put more weight on the bar. Dammit. I think I need to send an email to Jim Wendler about band tension.
Go SFW this weekend!
either band tension or metal gear, he loves both
i'm working on it. i feel like ass from cutting this damn weight!
I posted in your new member thread, but then saw you had a journal and figured I'd post in here
Great to see another finance guy from NYC on the board! Where in Queens is your gym? I currently in Hoboken, but am considering moving to LIC next summer. I can't stand the NYSC atmosphere anymore.

Coliseum Gym is in Glendale, Queens (http://www.coliseumgym.com/). Not exactly close to mass transit but ts a 2 mile drive from my apartment in Forest Hills. It's FAR from LIC. I got away with box squatting and deadlifting in NYSC (with my own chalk) but I was probably a week or two away from being kicked out. If you are in Hoboken and have a car, there are some gyms near you. Skiba's Barbell is one that comes to mind in Carteret.
Now please change your avatar.
Thanks for the input. I don't currently have a car in Hoboken. If I moved to Queens or Brooklyn I would probably have my car which would open up more options. I can pretty much get away with whatever I want at my current location, but the clientele and trainers drive me nuts. I had a trainer try to correct my bench form the other day and tell me to bring the bar to the very top of my chest just below my neck. It's tough to remain motivated in there. I might look at some of the more serious gyms in the city like Steele. I'm a skinny little bber type, so I don't necessarily need a place that supports powerlifting. Mainly some place that is cool with deads, chalk, etc. Thanks again.
