Review from 2013 tasting notes:
Poured this into a chalice, just a little bit! Looks near black, lacks head, however rich, creamy tan lacing is seen as I tilt the glass on its side. Looks like I'd expect 16% of liquid to look.
Smells of dark fruit/ chocolate, nutty, raisin, phenols, hint of vinegar?
Tastes like the smell initially. Dark fruit (plum/ fig) hits me hard, followed by a long spicy burn and a satisfying creamy, sweet, medium carbonated mouthfeel. It's hard for me to describe huge strength beers like this. Better than i thought based on seeing reviews here? Yes. While impossible to pick apart 16 hops in this beast (much less tell apart even two), I think Schmaltz did achieve something here. It all adds up to where the hops work to offset the sweetness of the dark plum. Something to respect. Like when I first sipped DFH 120 minute.

look: 4 | smell: 3.25 | taste: 3.25 | feel: 3.5 | overall: 3.25
Bottled November 2012
Very dark brown, nearly black, with a surprising amount of tannish head. Initial head evolves into a bubbly ring around the edge of the glass. Very little lacing.
Big sweet malty aromas, brown sugar, hints of chocolate, dark fruits, alcohol fumes.
Very sweet. Caramelized dark fruits, brown sugar again, woody notes, booze.
Sticky, chewy, warming body.
Well shit. 16% ABV means 16% ABV. This is a boozy beer and it won't let you forgot it til the next morning. Flavors are good, not great. I expected more especially with some age on it. Good sipper.

Its a lot too handle, very alcohol forward taste, almost like you're drinking a glass of brandi. Goes great with a dessert, flan or ice cream, because it also has a hint of sweetness and cutting it with something mellows out the alcohol potency. This is for the extreme drinker.

Now this is a massive ABV beer, one I enjoyed in several increments over the course of an evening, poured from the bottle into a goblet. Nearly pitch black with a brownish tinge and brown foam, looks like motor oil. Smells as sweet and boozy as you'd expect but without a lot of strong roasted barley or black malt character, more sweet and spicy with woody notes and an undercurrent of purple grape juice. Tastes like milk chocolate cake, dates and raisins, licorice, blackstrap molasses, oak, rum, vanilla, clove, unlit tobacco, another brown spice (maybe nutmeg?) ... There is yet another sweet flavor that almost veers into maple territory. Maybe some coffee, but by this point my tongue is pretty savaged. One is inclined to plumb this brew for new layers of flavor and while the aforementioned list does suggest a wide range of malty and sweet flavors, the 16 hops are almost impossible to discern at the individual level and instead there is a medicinal earthy flavor that blends together with the massive spicy alcohol burn. Drinking this beer in a mindful fashion is like walking into a grotto, looking for new caverns ... Except that just when you think you stumble onto some new passage, you come face to face with a huge grizzly bear named Fusel and have to beat a hasty retreat. This comparison notwithstanding, its a fairly fun experience. Very sweet and warming, makes the mouth and lips numb and leaves a medicinal burn as its calling card. Of course this brew is thick, chewy, and dextrinous, although maybe less so than one would expect (?) ... Its obviously pretty attenuated to contain this much alcohol. Aging might mellow this out. An interesting experiment and not soon forgettable. Curb your enthusiasm around the insane malt and hop bills though. You won't be able to pick them all out.

look: 3.5 | smell: 3.25 | taste: 4 | feel: 4 | overall: 3.75
Had a .3l glass at Beveridge Place in Seattle.
Appearance - dark brown to black, slight head, not much lacing.
Smell - not very much aroma, surprisingly. Maybe this beer was too cold from the tap, but I did sip it over 30 minutes, and didn't get the aroma I was expecting.
Taste - very boozy in a pleasant way. Sweet and complex.
Mouthfeel - creamy and full.
Overall - I liked this beer quite a bit, but didn't love it. For all the 16 hops and 16 malts, and 16% ABV, it didn't quite come together. There's a lot going on in terms of flavor, but I probably wouldn't go back and order another. Pretty dangerously high ABV!

look: 4 | smell: 4 | taste: 4 | feel: 4 | overall: 4
22 oz. bottle, with no apparent bottled on date present. I have been eyeing this bottle for a while now, so I know this beer is about a year old now, but I doubt the 16.00% abv has mellowed much. This sounds like one of the craziest beers I've tried yet, so I have no idea what to expect.
Poured into a clear balloon snifter.
A - Pours with a slight mahogany hue to it, but it appears as opaque motor oil black in the glass. Just over a finger of creamy chocolate mocha head. Some thin scattered lacing. Looks good.
S - Smells rich, dark, sticky, and boozy. Oak wood, bourbon, rum, chocolate, cream, chocolatey fudge syrup, brown sugar, & cold coffee. Some fruitiness present on the end, but it isn't what I would describe as dark fruit, more juicy & earthy. There is no denying that there is a lot going on here.
T - Sticky, boozy chocolate syrup. Caramel. Toffee. Oak wood. Dark malt / coffee bean roast. Brown sugar. Earthy yeast, taffy apples, and some other indistinct fruitiness on the finish. Notes of vanilla, as the beer warms. Again, there is a lot of stuff going on here. Layers of fudgey chocolate roasted goodness.
M - Feel is smooth and creamy, with a long sticky candied, malty, caramel finish.
Overall, a big, bold, and brave beer. Definitely not as hot and messy as others have said, so maybe a year in the bottle did it some good. Sticky, sweet, and hot, but not overly so, and at no point is the massive 16.00% abv apparent, although I'm sure it is destined to doom me. A recommended slow sipper.

My parents were in the Hitler Youth, but some of their best friends are/were Jewish. I've had one or two other brews from this brewery, but I was saving this one for a special occasion. In this case, putting up the Christmas tree and watching OSU/Michigan.
It is a huge, sweet beer. Pouring it almost straight down a tall glass gave a huge dark brown head. A spectacle.
The taste is way sweet. It begs to be sipped. The aftertaste is so complex and cool. Totally worth it.
Overall, this is a great beer and I am glad I bought it. It aged fine. I guess it is a one shot deal and I will never be able to get it again.

Poured into a Due South Brewing Co. snifter. Bottle aged approximately one year.
A- Pours a fully opaque black color with a 1/2 inch light brown head that retains well before becoming a thick ring around the edge of the glass and a bubbly center patch of surface foam. Semi-resilient lacing slides slowly down the glass leaving a tight-knit sheet of foam behind.
S- Potent aroma of caramel, vanilla and oak. Quite sweet but the dark roast penetrates hard enough to make a nice contrast.
T- Sweetness at first with a slightly boozy kick but the burnt sugar flavor and dark roast evens things out. The dark roast lingers heavy in the aftertaste leaving notes of dark chocolate, coffee and toffee in its wake. Every sip seems like the alcohol will tip the scales in terms of drinkability but the other flavors push through hard enough to stop the heat in its tracks and make for a pleasant taste. There's also a decent amount of bitterness from the hops to keep everything sufficiently in check.
M- Slightly sharp from the booze and there's a small stinging in the throat as it goes down. Also kind of syrupy and sticky with medium-low carbonation and a full body.
O- I always enjoy Jewbelation this time of year. It's a nice, affordable strong ale that goes down pretty easy even though it has an intensely high ABV. Good for a cold night such as tonight.

look: 4.25 | smell: 4.25 | taste: 4.5 | feel: 4.25 | overall: 4.25
appearance: Very dark, nearly opaque ruby. Substantial tan head on the pour that mostly recedes.
smell: Fairly subdued and complex. Guess that sounds contradictory but I expected 16 malts and 16 hops and 16% Abv to be pretty in your face. Pretty tame though, malt forward, roasty and unique.
taste: More of the same. Much like the nose. Delish.
overall: Drank one of these fresh and loved it. Put one back for a year and loved it. This got trashed quite a bit. I'm a big port fan and have a soft spot for big abv sweet monsters, which this is. Gentle giant here. Not sure why it didn't get more love other than a general aversion to sweet beers.

look: 4 | smell: 4.25 | taste: 4.25 | feel: 4.25 | overall: 4.5
Appearance: It has a nice deep brown (almost black) color to it. It has a nice mocha head that dies down moderately fast and leaves next to no lacing.
Smell: The aromas definitely give out hints of dark fruit (plums, raisins, grapes), sweet roasted malts, some chocolate and maybe some molasses.
Taste: Like the aromas, it has some definite dark fruit (plums, raisins and grapes), some chocolaty notes, some sweet roasted malts, some coffee, molasses and an earthy bitterness.
Mouthfeel: It has a low/medium carbonation with a nice overall balance and feel.
Drinkability: It's a very smooth drinkable beer accompanied with good flavors and aromas.

He'brew Jewbilation Sweet 16 has pretty much no head, but there is a slight bit of cream colored foam at the top. The appearance is very dark brown, with a few visible bubbles shooting up. The aroma is very strong- alcohol, caramel, prunes, dark cherries, and overall dark malt. Flavor is of all those elements, and one picks up a dark bread crust, dark brown sugar, and even some bitterness to balance the rich sweetness. Mouthfeel is medium and chewy, with some alcohol burn and carbonation prickle. He'brew Sweet 16 finishes semi-dry, sweet, rich, and tasty. But, drinkability is low and poor. Overall, this is most excellent, but one might find it too intense to enjoy.

Pours dark as night with a half finger head of a mocha colored head that dissipates slowly and leaves a thin ring of lacing. Smells of cocoa, roasted malts, lots of dark fruit like raisin and plum, molasses, and brown sugar. Taste starts with lots of roasted milk chocolate and sweetness. Getting a dark fruit presence as well. The middle brings more roastiness, as well as molasses and toffee and more dark fruit characteristics. Getting a spiciness from the hops. Already getting the booze. The finish is milk chocolate, tiny hint of vanilla, dark fruits, grapes, and roasted malts combine with tons of sweet molasses, toffee, and brown sugar. Definitely get an astringent hop bitterness with an earthy, grassy flavor to go along with the sweet chocolate and dark fruits. A vinous quality to it. Also dry on the finish. Really boozy with a big warming sensation as it goes down. Full body with a creamy and sticky mouthfeel. Not as much of a mess as I thought it would be. This beer is not a lost cause. Just a huge, intense beer that would really benefit from some age. Could be a really nice beer 2 years down the road.

Pours menacing and black with no light , not even around the edges. A little thick but not so thick like oil. Had a fair head of beige foam that fell fast and left a big ring with enough lace to look at. Nose is dark and roasty. Chocolate and a bit of fruit. Hops take a backseat but I do get a little plum from the nose. Drinks smooth and a little hot. Milky chocolate and full malt. Molasses, brown sugar, raisins. Medium heavy body and very creamy.
Drinks hard with the alcohol but pleasantly so. The heat lingers at the back of the throat and the chocolate is divine. I got a few hints of spice on the nose but so far none of the cinnamon allspice and ginger that other people talked about. Maybe it needs to warm. Big beer. Really big beer.

Bottle poured into snifter
A - Pours a thick deep black body. Looks like a beast at first pour. Only a little light getting through the edges, but very dark
S - Sweet and roasty dominate the nose. Some dried fruit and dark chocolate.
T - Several flavors going on with the dark chocolate and roasted notes dominating.
M - Coats the mouth well. Nice full body, almost no carbonation
O - Pretty much what I expected from the description. It's a lot to tackle solo. For the price and ease of obtaining, I would keep a couple to drink over the next year.

Poured from a 22 ounce bottle into a Glencairn glass.
A: VERY dark. Black-dark. Nice light tan head rises and fades, leaving heavy lacing on the glass.
S: Raisins and...cat litter? Eww. The less pleasant scents don't stick around for very long, and all that remains is heavy, sticky malt sweetness.
T/M: Incredibly thick. There is a boatload of hops in this beer, and it manages to balance surprisingly well. A bizarre, dizzingly boozy beer that is chock full of all sorts of stuff. Bitter citric hops, chocolately malts, goodness only knows what all.
O: A little too much and a little too weird to be recommendable (and I split this four ways). I would have no idea what to do with a bottle all to myself.

Everyone has different tastes and opinions in what's good and what's not. I bought this for the 16 hops and 16 malts...it was nothing like I expected, and I bought 2 bombers.
The pour looked okay for an extremely dark beer.
The smell and taste, way to much clove. I couldn't pick out any of the so called 16 hops....just the malt, chocolate, clove, etc were Way, Way to much for me. Again personal taste.
I like to sip my beers at anywhere from 55 degrees to room temp to bring out all the nuances. This one I literally had to hold my nose and pour it down, better than down the drain, I guess.
I'm very much into DIPAs , high IBUs and high ABVs This one(flavor wise) was certainly not for me.
I may let the other bottle age for a year or so and review again.

Got a bottle of this from SliverX a while back. I've been very impressed with He'Brew so far, so this one comes much anticipated.
From a bomber into a snifter
APPEARANCE: Pours out dark brown and yields a 1+ finger, looser, creamy colored yellow head with poor retention. Head is really fizzy and cracks down to a ring only rather fast. Bistre brown body with medium levels of carbonation. A ring remains but leaves no lacing down the glass. Decent body here, but a very poor head.
SMELL: Big nose on this one with dark fruits, like plumbs, dates and grapes, read wine aromas, spicy notes and a good dose of alcohol. Notes of molasses and brown sugar as well. Bold and impressive, with lots of complexity. Quite alcoholic as well.
TASTE: Very boozy right off the bat. Dark fruits again, dates and plumbs, dark grapes, molasses, and lots of spicy alcohol at the swallow. Bold finish of molasses, burnt brown sugar, raisins, some bitter dark chocolate and lots of spicy alcohol. Cinnemon and ginger in there as well. Despite the booze, this is still very flavorful and complex.
PALATE: Medium body and a touch higher levels of carbonation. A bit light on the palate, though expected perhaps, creamy enough, goes down alright with a burn at the swallow and finishes sticky. Some heat lingers.
OVERALL: This is excellent stuff, and is more confirmation that Shmaltz makes awesome strong ales. No problem finishing this bottle solo. I'm a big fan of the Jewbelation series, but will admit that this one is even getting to the limits of my alcohol tollerance. This might be a good place to end this series, as a 17% and then an 18% beer might just be a bridge too far. Regardless, this one was great and I'm happy to have been able to experience it the way it was meant to be experienced. Solo watching PGA Golf. Thanks again SliverX.

22 oz bottle, 2012
appeared very dark brown, a thin khaki colored head. good head retention. smell is fairly sweet, with fusel alcohol fumes so its a bit harsh, with some licorice and tobacco. the taste starts herbal, slightly roasty, bready, then quite a bit of alcohol burn in the finish. the mouthfeel is medium bodied, fairly low carbonation, which works.
overall - no questioning the strength of this beer. for the first time in the Jewbelation series, the alcohol comes through big time. I guess it was inevitable.
took a long time to drink the whole bottle.

Bottle: Poured a deep black color ale with a medium foamy head with average retention and minimal lacing. Aroma of deep caramelized sugar notes with light dried fruit and alcohol ester. Taste is also dominated by caramelized sugar with overly sweet notes and some alcohol warming notes. Body is quite full with motor oil consistency and alcohol is indeed a bit too straightforward. Too sweet with too much alcohol being perceptible.

Pours a very dark brown color with a small tan head that disappears quickly. Scent is heavy with molasses, brown sugar, burnt sugar, prune, raisin, booze, and chocolate cake/frosting. Very aromatic nose on this one. The taste has very similar characteristics, except for having a hint of soy and gingerbread. More spicy than the sent implies, with some allspice, gingerbread, pumpkin, yam, and cinnamon. Tons of sweet, sugary flavors. Burnt sugar with a ton of molasses and dark fruits. Very sweet and boozy. Mouthfeel is thick and syrupy. Drinkability is fair. Overall, the 16% alcohol is leveled nicely within this beer. This is better than the other Anniversary years in my opinion. Surprisingly enjoyable.

Poured a dark brown, thin tan head on top. The retention is decent with a very subtle lacing. The smell is a bit strange. Very different and not sure how to place it. The taste is of roast, molasses, pine and a plethora of things. Very interesting to say the least. The mouthfeel is smooth lightly carbonated and oily. Overall this beer is unique, it's not something I would die for but it was really nice to try. It's worth trying for sure an it'll hit ya like a ton of bricks too.

Was looking over a ton of beers, saw that this was 16% abv and for 8.99. Figured what the heck.
A: Very dark and unable to see through. When pouring the beer into the sniffer, it had little to no head. Could tell it was very thick. Light amount of lacing on the glass that doesn't actually stick. Could tell it had a lot too it.
S: Plum, Dark Fruit, Prunes. Couldn't really smell much hops. Almost similar to a Belgian Dark Ale.
T: It has a spice to it from the heavy alcohol, heavy malt, grape juice, prune, fig, a tiny bit of bitterness on the tongue after swallowing.
M: To be honest after drinking lots of beers and lots of 11%'s, this one is just too much at 16%. It is so thick and heavy that it isn't the easiest to drink. It's actually a little rough. I did struggle a tiny bit to finish it.
O: I get the impression that they made this beer 16% abv just because they could, not with an actual thought process behind it. There are some good things going on, but it sadly is a case where too much makes something less. I know it's the sweet 16, but why make the quality suffer? I don't think I'd ever buy this again as I'd rather have the ability to drink a imperial without struggling. It's just very syrupy, and too rough to be up there with the best.

Served in a Lagunitas mason jar.
I've always been more of a quincinera kind o' guy, but I can indulge otherwise every now and then... (And, in retrospect, that sounded a lot creepier than in my head...) Anyway, this stuff pours a very dark black-brown topped by over a finger of tan foam. The nose comprises mild chocolate powder, light dark fruits, mild roasted malts, a vague vein of breadiness, and a hint of even vaguer wood. It's experientially a stranger mixture than it sounds. The taste brings in more of the same, with a stronger emphasis on the chocolate, but there is a strong blast of straight-up booze shooting up from the very start, drowning out all else, rather than working with the other flavors (as would happen in a fine Scotch or other liquor). Things end with a flurry of slightly-fruity coffee, though this doesn't hang around too long. Let's just call this section...unpleasant. The body is a hefty medium, with a light moderate carbonation and a lightly chewy feel. Overall, this is just too much to really be enjoyable. Maybe if they were to cut back on the unnecessary booze, this might've actually been pretty nice. Shame, really....

A few resolutions for those running the show
Here are a few resolutions for those driving the agenda in Congress, for Chip Cravaack, and for Amy Koch, that might truly help brighten my new year.
I've never been totally clear on the attraction of making New Year's Resolutions, in large part because any resolution worth doing is worth starting long before New Year's Day rolls around.
Every year, though, my family gathers to write resolutions. Because anything of immediate importance or interest is something I've already started to do, my resolutions become a "to do" list of all the things that I'd like to do, but which aren't pressing. Last year's list, for example, included removing the backyard stump that we've identified as whiffle ball second base for four or five years.
Come to think of it, removing second base was on the list in 2010 and 2009 too. Maybe this will be the year it finally gets done.
Of course, the fact that my own itches are too minor to be scratched doesn't mean I don't have a few pet peeves that I think others should fix. So here are a few resolutions for those driving the agenda in Congress, for Chip Cravaack, and for Amy Koch, that might truly help brighten my new year.
First, Congress' approval ratings have managed to sink to a record low of 11 percent, in part because even the most minor actions end up as major partisan fiascos, while actions of significance are impossible. So this year I urge Congress to resolve to accomplish something important, although almost anything will be an improvement.
Congress' lack of accomplishments has been largely due to the Tea Party faction in the House, which mainly negotiates by taking its ball and going home. Tea Partiers have insisted that deficit reduction is a huge priority. Twice this year liberals and moderates proposed to negotiate plans for reducing the deficit by $4 trillion, including entitlement reform. Twice this year, Tea Partiers pushed back against the $4 trillion deals, and settled instead for about $1 trillion in deficit reduction each time.
Perhaps the Tea Partiers, many of whom are rookies, haven't learned that if the goal is deficit reduction, then when your opponent offers $4 trillion, you counteroffer for $6 trillion and compromise for $5 trillion. For next year, I suggest that Tea Partiers in the House resolve to learn the art of negotiation, so that by negotiating they get more of what they want, instead of less.
Our own Tea Partier, Chip Cravaack, promised to stay in touch with constituents, and that's a promise he's kept. While keeping in touch, it usually doesn't take Cravaack long to refer to costly "job killing regulatory actions" of the Environmental Protection Agency, which he is "trying to beat back." Cravaack sometimes reinforces his statements with questionable industry-produced cost figures.
A more thoughtful, or trustworthy, person would offset regulatory costs against the price of disease and lost economic opportunity and medical bills, due to the lack of regulation. Yet Cravaack rarely, if ever, mentions the benefits of regulation.
In one case, regarding the EPA's Transport Rule, the estimates of benefits are up to 10 times greater than Cravaack's industry-supplied cost estimates. So for this year, I propose that Cravaack quit working as a publicly paid industry lobbyist, and instead resolve to tell us both sides of the cost-benefit equation, using information from the most credible sources.
One person who I dream might now be better able to see both sides of an issue is Minnesota senate majority leader Amy Koch, who has supported the anti-gay marriage amendment to the state constitution that we will vote on next fall. Now that Koch's affair with a Senate staffer has come to light, we can see why the sanctity of marriage must be protected.
Except that it already is. Koch's indiscretion is punishable in Minnesota Statute 609.36 by up to a year in prison and a $3000 fine.
No doubt Koch thinks that protecting the sanctity of marriage by denying her freedom for a year is a bad idea. Protecting the sanctity of marriage by denying the freedom of homosexuals is an equally bad idea. Koch should resolve this year to vote against her own amendment.
Unfortunately, obstructionism, one-sided issue advocacy, and hypocrisy seem to not be problems for many of our elected officials. I'm pretty sure none of my concerns rate as an itch worthy of scratching.
My chances of removing second base from my back yard are much greater.

Hey everyone! We just returned from Cabo last night and the tournament was a blast! Oh, our team didn't catch any Tuna during the 2 day tourny, but we weren't alone. Most of the teams went without catching tuna. However, we did manage to wrestle in 3 sailfish the first day up to 150 lbs) and a nice, 240 lb black marlin the second day. The picture isn't great, but we wanted to get it a shot before it was filleted out on the boat. Yea, we wanted to bring home one fish, but was hoping it was going to be a tuna, dorado or wahoo. We brought down two coolers and this one fish provided 76# of fillets. The winning tuna was 318#! That's huge!

What would be the closest translation to the sentence "I couldn't care less."
It is similar in meaning to
Es ist mir egal.
(It doesn't matter to me)
but I think it's not quite the same. Other suggestions?
What would be the closest translation to the sentence "I couldn't care less." It is similar in meaning to but I think it's not quite the same. Other suggestions? |
I think is even stronger than thekeyofgb's "Das ist mir (völlig) egal." because it emphasizes that no thoughts will be spend on something while egal can just mean some (passive) half-heartedness. In an informal context I couldn't care less can also be translated with "Das geht mir am Arsch vorbei!" or "Darauf scheiße ich!" but this is extremely rude. |
I'd say It's stronger than As "I couldn't care less" is stronger than "I don't care" |
As you have correctly stated: But the sentence can have other translations: If you want to increase the proposition
Almost just a side note but important enough to know as you may encounter it. The sentence is often modified in a way that egal is replaced with a couple of words which actually do not make any sense: These three are possibly the most common ones, at least I've encountered any of them several times. But you can place there almost anything. There's even a Facebook group called: Note, this is the name of a football player. The form "sowas von" is some kind of emphasis, like völlig or absolut. Eventually, as it haven't been said yet, something can be piep(s) egal. |
In certain parts of the country you'll hear: where "Wurscht" (or even "Worscht") is how one pronounces "Wurst" there. This is less gentle than "egal", but not as rude as mentioning "Arsch" or "Scheiße". |
I am not sure if this expression is outmoded, but I heard it in a speaking book, liked it, and added it to my vocabulary. |
Nicht so elegant, aber auch praktisch, wäre Du kannst auch sagen. |

i have an 8 week old, that has only had formula once. weve had our problems, for the first three weeks he had the hardest time latching. he still falls asleep breastfeeding. its normal. they are so relaxed and secure they fall asleep. i thought about giving up as well, and i cried. lord did i cry. im not going to tell you that you have to push through. you need to do what you feel is right. i agree breastfeeding is best. but considering pumping and then bottle feeding. true its a hassle, and god is it time consuming. but you can still be comforted that baby is getting your milk and your nutrients. hope it helped! stay strong. itll get better.
Don't give up! It becomes so much easier. Your baby probably just wants to suck. Try a pacifier or have your partner hold, rock, shush, swing, etc. Also, consider side lying nursing to give you some rest. Or, have your partner wake up to give a full bottle of formula, and let you rest completely. Infants go through many stages, and none or them are permanent or last very long. In the long run, breast feeding is WAY easier that formula. Imagine getting up everynight to heat water for formula, wash bottles, etc. Instead, you can just pop your nipple in your baby's mouth! Also, breatfeeding is free, formula will cost you over $1000 a year. You're doing great!

Students from School 42 spent part of the day with members of the Rochester Police Department to celebrate Black History Month.
The sixth graders were invited by Chief James Sheppard after winning a poster contest for bullying awareness.
The students gathered at the Public Safety Building where they took a tour, played games and ate lunch with officers.
The chief says the event helps start and build positive relationships between students and law enforcement.
"We value those relationships. We want them to come here when it's positive as opposed to a negative event and we're hoping that they enjoy the visit and continue with the relationship that we've established," said Chief James Sheppard, Rochester Police Department.
The Rochester Police Department has been engaging in events with School 42 throughout the school year.

iPad 5 cases are on the market Video
iPad 5 cases are on the market Video Transcript
-What's good? Brian Tong here and welcome to the Apple Byte for all the good and bad inside the world of Apple. Now, I first wanted to congratulate my producer Jamie and I'm sorry guys, but she is official off the market and is now married to her awesome husband, Philip Lye, and you know, I'm so happy for them. Jamie, I'll always be the fish that got away. -Gross. I just don't wanna reel you in. -Okay. That's fine. I get it. On to the show, an Apple held their 2013 shareholders meeting, which is normally uneventful but a few nuggets of info came out of the meeting. CEO Tim Cooke addressed the company's future, saying that he's disappointed in the following stock price but Apple is committed to their long term strategy, which is what he's supposed to say. Now, Cooke also said they're obviously looking at new categories, they don't talk about them publicly but they are looking. Apple TV and iWatch. Now, the other news nugget, Apple's Spaceship Campus plans have been slightly delayed with the move-in dates still targeted for around 2016. It appears building a tractor beam is the cause for the delay. Also, an iPad 5 news and we tend to follow the Chinese case manufacture's lead. Chinese e-market Alibaba has iPad 5 cases available to order, featuring similar design cues from the iPad mini with holes at the bottom edge for the lightning port and speaker grills. Now, one unknown feature is the hole in the top center area which is different than the microphone hole at the top edge and I actually think it could be a breathing hole. Now, Alibaba has reputation for releasing case designs early that were accurate in the past and the surrounding rumor mill is evident that it's pretty clear we'll see a new design. Well, that, and that fact that everyone knew it would be the new design right after the mini came out. Now, in the iWatch-- watch, a patent discovered by Apple insider revealed that Apple is not only looking into a wearable device that has a flexible touchscreen but it would also have the ability to conform to a user's body through the use of a slap bracelet mechanism. Guys, that's not thinking different, that's thinking 90's. The patent also describes it as a wearable accessory device that can be easily worn on a user's wrist or other body part. I know where I'll put mine on. My wrist. Now, let's check out a few apps of the week. We've got two for you we're checking out. First up, you wanna check out the new Photoshop Touch app for iPhone and Android. It's a little pricier at $4.99 but it has a lot of Photoshop's core features like support for layers, advanced selection tools, adjustments and filters. Now, it's easier to use on a tablet but its pretty feature rich here for mobile phones and it's worth checking out. Now, the other app you guys should look at is Amazon's Cloud Player app and it's free. I'm a big fan of purchasing my music through Amazon with DRM-Free MP3s and now they have an app that allows you to access that library on your iPhone easily. So, all you have to do is buy your music from Amazon's website, sign in and viola! All your music is there. Well, except for the Back Street Boys that was just downloaded for the purposes of this demo. -Everybody, yeah. Rock your body, yeah. -All right. Let's check out the quick Byte. According to NPD data, iMac sales in January surge up 31 percent year over year as orders have picked up, seem even with multi week waits through their only stores. Also major league baseball is increasing its iOS Passbook support from four stadiums to almost half of all MLB stadiums in 2013, which is good for passbook and sports fans. Plus Samsung also announced their own version of passbook called Samsung Wallet for event tickets, boarding passes, and membership cards as well. So, this space should heat up a little this year. And the Leap Motion Controller, it's the 3D motion tracking device that's compatible with Macs and PCs, will go on sale for $79.99 with a mid May deliver date. So, it will also be interesting to see how that product develops over time but really, this technology is pretty sweet. And finally, guys, let's do a little giveaway because we've got nothing but love for you at the Apple Byte. I have a bunch of free see-through shells from spec products including 3 MacBook Pro, 15-inch retina cases, 3 MacBook Pro 13 and 2 MacBook Air 13 cases. All you have to do is e-mail us at firstname.lastname@example.com or tweet me @briantong and tell us what you do while you watch the Apple Byte. Do you clip your toenails? Do you eat some oatmeal? Or all you YouTubers, you just comment about my sexual preference. Well, we'll take pictures or video submissions with the link as well and we'll announce the winners next week. So, get on it. All right. That's gonna do it for this week's show. I'm Brian Tong, thanks for watching and we'll catch you guys next time for another byte of the Apple.

Can old threads in the forums not be removed or at least blocked from further replies? Even archiving them is usually pointless.
I say removed because the advice in them can be out of date very fast, and some of the threads go back years!
I suggest blocked from further replies if you cannot remove them, because people replying to postings months or years old is just as pointless.
Perhaps make the dates on them more obvious if you cannot do the above, then perhaps people may notice that they are replying to a posting years old, so they may realise they are wasting their time.

Newly Admitted International Students
Applying for a Form I-20
Initial Attendance
The Form I-20, or "Certificate of Eligibility for Nonimmigrant (F-1) Student," is the immigration document that is required to obtain F-1 student status through an F-1 visa application and to maintain F-1 status after arriving in the U.S. The Student and Exchange Visitor Program (SEVP) manages nonimmigrant students and their dependents in the F visa classification and is administered by the Department of Homeland Security. To be eligible for F-1 student status, students must be admitted to a full course of study at a SEVIS-approved school and meet other requirements for I-20 issuance.
In order to receive an I-20 after being admitted to Stevens, a student must provide the following documents to the International Student and Scholar Services (ISSS) office:
- Financial documentation as outlined in the "Guidelines for Submitting Financial Documents" below
- Graduate or Undergraduate Financial Verification Form, unless exempt as described in "Guidelines for Submitting Financial Documents" below
- Copy of passport identification page with photograph
In addition, the following documents must be made available to the ISSS office by Admissions:
- Copy of written application to Stevens
- Evidence of satisfaction of admissions requirements
- Letter of Admission from Stevens
- Proof of English language proficiency, including TOEFL, IELTS, another approved equivalent, or a waiver of this requirement
Transferring from a SEVIS-Approved U.S. Institution
A student who is currently attending a SEVIS-approved school within the U.S. or who has recently completed studies at such a school should notify Stevens in order to ascertain his or her eligibility for transferring the electronic F-1 record from a previous school to Stevens. If a student will not return to his or her home country between study at another institution and study at Stevens, transferring the F-1 record is mandatory for maintenance of status. Transferring an F-1 record also guarantees that any time in full-time status that the student has accrued within the U.S. toward F-1 benefits (such as Optional Practical Training or Curricular Practical Training) will not be lost.
In addition to providing the documents listed above under "Initial Attendance," an F-1 student transferring to Stevens must provide the following:
- Transfer-In Request form
- Copy of nonimmigrant visa
- Copy of I-20 from previous SEVIS-approved school
Requesting a Change to F-1 Status from within the U.S.
A change of status to F-1 is necessary for the maintenance of legal status when a nonimmigrant changes or ends his or her principal activity, reason, or purpose for being in the U.S. and wants to remain in the U.S. to pursue a specific educational objective full-time. Though the ISSS office issues the change of status I-20, the change of status application is adjudicated by United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS). Requesting a change of status to F-1 is a multi-step process with specific rules, and not every nonimmigrant will be eligible for change of status or find this option ideal for his or her particular situation. For a detailed explanation of the regulations, procedures, and required documentation for change of status, please review the ISSS documents Information about Changing to F-1 Status and Directions for Applying for Change of Status to F-1 or F-2. Other change of status documents can be found under the Forms section of the website here.
Applying for a Form DS-2019
The DS-2019, or "Certificate of Eligibility for Exchange Visitor (J-1) Status," is the document that is required to acquire J-1 Exchange Visitor status through a J-1 visa application and to maintain J-1 status after arriving in the U.S. The J-1 Exchange Visitor Program is administered by the U.S. Department of State. To be eligible for J-1 student status, students must be admitted to a degree program at an accredited educational institution for either a full course of study, if pursuing a degree program, or a "prescribed course of study", if participating in an approved non-degree program.
There are some key differences between J-1 and F-1 student status. Unlike F-1 status, most students who will be completely funded by personal or family funds are not eligible for J-1 status. J-1 students and their dependents are also required to carry health insurance throughout their program of study, while F-1 students and their dependents are not. Additionally, students in J-1 status may become subject to a 2 year home country residence and physical presence requirement that does not apply to F-1 students. For more information about the J-1 visa category, please consult the Department of State's J-1 Visa Exchange Visitor Program website here.
In order to receive a DS-2019 after applying for J-1 student status and being admitted to Stevens, the following documents must be provided to the International Student and Scholar Services (ISSS) office by the student:
- Application for Form DS-2019 -Student category only
- Financial documentation as outlined in the Guidelines for Submitting Financial Documents below.
- For transfer students from another Student and Exchange Visitor Information System (SEVIS)-approved U.S. institution (in addition to the items above):
- Transfer-In Request form
- Copy of DS-2019 from former institution
In addition, the following documents must be made available to the ISSS office by Stevens Admissions:
- Copy of written application to Stevens
- Evidence of satisfaction of admissions requirements
- Letter of Admission from Stevens
- Proof of English language proficiency, including TOEFL, IELTS, another approved equivalent, or a waiver of this requirement
After all documents are received and are determined to be sufficient, a DS-2019 will be issued for and shipped to the student in approximately 4-5 business days.
Guidelines for Submitting Financial Documents
International students requesting visa sponsorship must demonstrate sufficient funds to cover Stevens' estimated expenses for the first year of study, as required by the U.S. government. The ability of students to demonstrate that they will not become a public charge or resort to unauthorized employment in the U.S. for financial support is essential. Information about Stevens' estimated expenses may be found on the Stevens Graduate or Undergraduate Financial Verification Form. The financial documents submitted to Stevens for the purpose of securing an I-20 (F-1 visa) or a DS-2019 (J-1 visa) will also be required in their original form when applying for a student visa at a U.S. Consulate or Embassy abroad, and when passing through Customs at the U.S. port of entry.
At the time of the visa application, students will be required to present evidence of sufficient funds for the first academic year, and at the discretion of the consular officer, may also be asked to demonstrate that equal funding will be made available for every year of study in the United States. Financial guarantee documents can come from various sources as outlined below:

Scheduling and Preparing for the Visa Interview
After receiving your I-20 or DS-2019 from Stevens, the next step is to apply for an F-1/J-1 visa at the nearest U.S. consulate or embassy. In order to properly prepare for your visa interview, please follow these steps:
Check your documents:
After receiving your I-20/DS-2019, review your document to make sure that all the information is correct, and contact ISSS if there appear to be any errors. You should also do this for any dependent I-20s/DS-2019s you receive for your spouse and/or children accompanying you to the U.S. You should also make sure that you and any dependent(s) have a passport that is valid for at least 6 months into the future from the date you plan to arrive in the U.S.
Pay the I-901 SEVIS Fee:
You will need your initial I-20/DS-2019 to pay the SEVIS fee. The Student and Exchange Visitor Program's website will provide you with instructions on how to do so. Click on the button labeled "Submit Form I-901 and Fee Payment." Print two copies of the payment confirmation—one for the visa appointment and one for your own records. Your payment confirmation can also be printed at any time from the same website by clicking the "Check I-901/Print Payment Confirmation" button.
Schedule your visa interview:

You should complete this electronic form online and take a printed copy with you to the interview.
Make a list of the documentation required for your interview. Note the procedures for paying the visa application fee and any visa issuance fees, if applicable. The U.S. Consulate's webpage for your country should also provide you with information on how to schedule your visa interview.
Prepare for your interview:
Once you have scheduled your visa interview, make sure you take plenty of time to prepare yourself and get all necessary documents in order. Have both the originals and a set of photocopies of your documents.

- A passport valid for at least six months
- Form I-20/DS-2019
- Acceptance letter from Stevens Institute of Technology
- Completed visa application (DS-160). Remember to complete the DS-160 electronically, and take a printed copy with you.

Attend your interview:
Attend your scheduled interview with all necessary documentation. For helpful tips, please read the document 10 Points to Remember When Applying for a Nonimmigrant Visa.
Preparing for Departure and Entering the U.S.
Once you have received your F-1/J-1 visa, you will be ready to enter the U.S. as an F-1/J-1 student! Here is some information that will help you identify the items you need and prepare for your flight and entrance into the U.S.:
Booking Your Flight
When booking your flight, it is important that you input your full name exactly as it appears on your passport. Your electronic I-94 record may be created using the name that appears on the airline's flight manifest, so making sure that your passport and airline ticket match will ensure consistency in your immigration record and will help you avoid future delays when applying for documents (such as a driver's license or Social Security Number) or benefits after your arrival.
By law, F-1 and J-1 students can enter the U.S. any time during the 30-day period before the program start date indicated on the first page of the Form I-20 or Form DS-2019. If you attempt to arrive more than 30 days before the program start date, you may be refused entry into the United States. Therefore, when booking your flight, please make sure that you are scheduled to arrive no more than 30 days before your program start date; you should not plan to arrive after your program start date.
Necessary Documents
You will need the following documents to enter the United States:
- Passport- Your passport must be valid for at least 6 months into the future from the date of entry unless your country has a passport validity agreement with the U.S.; more information is available here.
- Valid F-1/J-1 visa
- I-20 or DS-2019 document signed on the first page by a Designated School Official/Alternate Responsible Officer (Stevens International Student and Scholar Services) and by you
- A copy of your Admission letter from Stevens
- Copies of the financial documents you provided to Stevens to receive your initial I-20 or DS-2019
If your passport needs to be valid for at least 6 months into the future from the date of entry and is not, you will either need to extend it or obtain a new passport before your departure. If your F-1/J-1 visa is in your old passport, you will carry both passports (old and new) with you when you travel.
Please make sure that you carry your documents in your carry-on luggage. Do not put these documents into your checked luggage, as you will not be able to retrieve them before you go through a Customs and Border Protection (CBP) port of entry (airport or land border crossing). Failure to produce these documents at the port of entry may result in denied entry.
Entering the U.S.
Upon your arrival to the U.S., Customs and Border Protection (CBP) will stamp your passport with an I-94 entry stamp connected to an electronic I-94 record which you will later be able to access here. The stamp shows that you have been lawfully admitted to the U.S. and the date you were admitted, the immigration status under which you were admitted, and the length of time you are permitted to stay. The I-94 stamp for F-1/J-1 students should be designated "F-1 D/S" or "J-1 D/S." "F-1" or "J-1" refers to your nonimmigrant status, and "D/S" stands for "Duration of Status," which means that you are admitted for the full length of time designated on your I-20/DS-2019 plus any additional time you accrue for F-1 or J-1 benefits, and the grace period following the document's end date. Please check your I-94 stamp before leaving Customs! If it is not properly designated, you must request that a Customs officer correct this before you leave the airport. An improperly designated stamp could be problematic if you later apply for a driver's license, Social Security Number, or the like.
After arriving in the U.S., you are required to check in with the ISSS office (located on the 5th Floor of the Wesley J. Howe Center) no later than the start date on your I-20/DS-2019. You may check in by reporting to the ISSS office any time Monday through Friday between 9 AM and 4:30 PM, or by attending the official International Student Check-In session during Orientation. You will be asked to complete a check-in form and to bring your passport (containing your visa and I-94 stamp) and the I-20/DS-2019 for you and each of your dependents, if applicable. You must be prepared to provide your U.S. address, so be sure to write it down so that you can easily access it when you come. J-1 students will also need to provide proof of health insurance for the duration of their program that meets the minimum requirements set forth in the J-1 Insurance Requirements document. Check-in with ISSS is required to maintain legal status in the U.S.; it is not optional!

Missoula Children's Theatre makes annual visit to Sequim
Published on Wed, Jan 7, 2009 by
Ashley Miller
Read More
It was the summer of 1970.
Jim Caron, unemployed and searching for the meaning of life, was heading from Chicago to a friend's wedding in Oregon when his Volkswagen van broke down on the outskirts of Missoula, Mont.
While waiting for the mechanic, Caron saw a flier for auditions to be in the play "Man of La Mancha." For fun, he auditioned and was cast in the role of Sancho. An instant and long-lasting friendship was formed with co-actor Don Collins, playing Don Quixote. The pair started a small theater company - and so the Missoula Children's Theatre was born.
The Missoula Children's Theatre is an international touring group that travels from state to state across the U.S. and to Canada, Europe and Asia casting local children in plays. Teams of two directors visit about 1,100 communities each year. The group has been visiting the North Olympic Peninsula for more than 20 years.
"We have parents calling us all year wanting to have their kids audition," said Elaine Caldwell, fundraising coordinator. "We get letters from parents all the time saying, 'Please let us know when they are coming.' What they can do in one week is amazing."
Each play is a modern version of a classic fairy tale. Previous Sequim productions include "The Frog Prince," "Little Red Riding Hood," "Alice in Wonderland," "The Little Mermaid" and "Jack and the Beanstalk," where audiences were pleasantly surprised when the story strayed from the classic tale. Jack was played by a girl.
This year, the Missoula Children's Theatre is casting 50-60 children and presenting two performances of "Robin Hood" at the Sequim High School Performing Arts Center on Saturday, Jan. 10.
"Robin Hood" takes place in the mythical Sherwood Forest. The main character, Robin Hood himself, is an archetypal figure in English folklore whose story originates from medieval times but who remains significant in popular culture where he is known for robbing the rich to give to the poor and fighting against injustice and tyranny. His "gang" includes three others called his "Merry Men."
Robin Hood has been the subject of numerous films, television series, books, comics and plays.
The Missoula Children's Theatre approaches children with full awareness of the pressures they face in society and strives to use participation in the performing arts as a vehicle to develop social skills, communication skills, self-discipline, a strong work ethic, an understanding of the team concept and self-esteem.
"We live in a highly competitive era," reads the Web site's mission statement. "Youngsters are introduced at an early age to the critical realities of our achievement and success-oriented society. From academics to athletics to social interaction, children are pressured to get the best grades, to score the most points, to have the most friends."
Caldwell confirmed that the Missoula Children's Theatre is a vital asset to the Sequim community. "They teach children so many important things: teamwork, self-esteem, acting skills ...," she said, "It's no wonder parents and children look forward to their visit all year long."

Celebrity Feet: Amare Stoudemire – Nike Air Yeezy 'Net'
August 26th, 2011 by John Kim | 34 comments
Last weekend, Nike athletes gathered in China for the Nike Festival of Sports – a weekend-long extravaganza promoted sport culture in China and the world. Representing the basketball wing of the Swoosh were Nike Basketball athletes LeBron James, Amare Stoudemire, Chris Bosh, Tyson Chandler, and new recruit Kyrie Irving. Amare Stoudemire was spotted in Shanghai rocking the Nike Air Yeezy in the 'Net' colorway (a shoe that doesn't look so high-top on him). We've caught Amare rocking some notable kicks before, like the Flint and Playoff XIII as well as the Cool Grey XI, but are these the best we've seen from him so far? Check out the extra shots of Amare at last weekend's Nike Festival of Sports and let us know what you think.
Filed under: Air Yeezy, Celebrity Feet // Tags: Amar'e Stoudemire, Nike Air Yeezy
haha bosh has the worst fit out of everybody... sorry had to say it AMARE > KYRIE > TYSON > > > BOSH
not a fan of the first run of yeezy joints but amare getting it done here. first time i've really looked at these on foot and not thought they were garbage. all about the height i think. pity most cats rocking these (from what I have seen) are not even pushing 6ft. not a good look when the shoes looks like they're wearing you.
Amare looking like he is Mr. Flash. "Chain check, watch check, Jeans check, and yezzys check. Im killing these bitches now" lol. No Pun on the other players.
I dnt even wanna ask how tall the dude on the end is cuz then I might just feel embaressed -_-
id rather have the tans than the zen greys, that glow-in-the-dark nike check makes a big difference...didnt know they came in a sz.16 tho lol....
F*ck he get a size 18 Yeezy from? Oh I almost forgot he's a celebrity. Which raises a question.. Certain limited kicks are super limited to a SPECIFIC amount. I wonder if the ones celebrity's wear are actually accounted for on that limited quantity or simply just made for them seperate from the publics quantity. For example. The Black QUAI 54's, Limited to 54 pairs. Yet Fabolous and DJ clark Kent have a pair. So does that mean to rest of the population has to share 52 pair's? If so. Pure f*ckery for TRUE Sneads.
well bosh is 6'10 / 11 and bron 6'8 / 9 amare looks to be (height wise) about in the middle of those two remind me how he doesn't look 6'10?
Or maybe he bought them and you're just being a jealous bitch just like everyone who liked your comment. Who knows though, don't assume that they're just handed sneakers and if they are then who cares? Worry about your own sneaker game womp
Nah, he's just saying that it's not fair that us sneakerheads. Probably the most legit ones can't just grab shoes like that, because of the fact we're not famous. If I had to guess it's a different stock of shoes specific for big names. They probably make more money through that, because they can charge them all the more.
Jealous? Yea I'm super jealous of people that don't have to camp out for a week for a pair of kicks like a true dedicated Snead... I'm not jealous of the kicks because I have them... And I do care if celebs are handed LIMITED sneakers... That may affect MY chances of getting them... So thats me worrying about my sneaker game... People had to take a f*ckin vacay from work just to get a pair of Yeezy's on release... Now granted he's a celeb and doesn't have the time to camp and he has the money to pay aftermarket prices... But that raises a question... If these so called celebrity sneads weren't celebs and didn't have the money for ridiculous aftermarket prices... Would they have the collection they have today? Would they be on a grind to seek out rare and exclusive kicks? Doubt it... Im in no way hatin on celebs with a serious kick collection... All I'm sayin is I don't give them as much snead respect as the average joe... Call it jealousy... Call it hatin... I can care less... Thats simply my opinion on celebrity "sneads"... We can simply agree to disagree...
That's just the way i write when i'm thinking, i'm sorry if you're not used to "big" words, but you're a dumbass :P Btw, are you my mom though? Stop ridin my dick lmaooo
@@@@ = Amare Stoudemire... Instead of coming back with a valid debate... You decided to be a Kanye (I'm sure your smart enough to know that means douchebag)... Good day sir...
@@@@@ Yo, what are you talkin' about? Like seriously you don't need to look up long words to sound "cool" you also don't need to state your name, and age. We're not hatin, but that was pretty stupid, because he was clearly stating the fact that celebritites have such easy access to shoes like this, yet we have near none.
You put me in check... I feel like i just got bitch slapped so hard all the way across the internet... Your reciprocation was not only valid, but it was so incredibly veracious that I think I just had a revolutionary mindgasm. FeelFreeToHateOnMe, I acknowledge your perception and henceforth from this day, strongly appeal and encourage the matriculation of your opinions. Thanks, Cristian Urena; 14 years old. Very thankful...

Used as a stocking gift and he loved it!
Woodstock, GA
via sears.com
This IDEA of this flex shaft is great and it has enough length to bend into just about any spot (I used this to remove an old and install a new heavy duty ceiling fan mount in a room that had no other options for via-attic installation or increasing the size of the existing ceiling hole). The next time I used it (for installing window blinds) the small metal ring located in the attachment point started to make it's way out of the shaft and it was not possible to put it back in. After reading other reviews on this product, I cannot say that I would recommend this to a friend and I urge Sears to find a new vendor to produce this tool ? it's a great idea and a needed tool ... just poorly manufactured.
Des Plaines, IL
via sears.com
Used it once and it broke (the head fall apart), replaced it with new one fro Sears, used it again once and it broke (the whole head twisted), small part with too many problems, sick and tired of it not even worth the third trip to replace.
Indianapolis, IN
via sears.com
I bought this to use when installing a toilet in an rv. It is a great tool. If saved me time and effort.
Costa Mesa, CA
via sears.com
i had the craftsman old flex shaft that came in red cardboard and that was a quality piece. This 9" flexshaft is an entire different story. It has quality on par with Freight Harbor, in other words, it is utter rubbish that I would pay about $2 for. Covered in packaging plastic, it looks OK, but in the hand, the supercheap light alloys used and SUPERcheap crimping give hint of the impending breakage. Do yourself the favor of avoiding a headache and bypass this product. Seems more and more, Craftsman moved from its roots of providing quality tools and now sources cheap china junk. Verysad.
, Northern Virginia
via sears.com
Very poor quality. Didn't last long. Flex part jambed and couldn't even get my bit out. Threw the whole thing out. Not worth the time to mess with such poorly made gadget.
Chico, Ca
via sears.com
I bought the tool and used it twice. The first time to loosen a 1/4 hex screw 1/2 inch long and the chuck came apart. The second use on a 5/16 hex screw 3/4 inch long the whole shaft came apart and bent. Took it to Sears in Chico,CA and they wouldnt give me a new one. Definetly would not buy again or will i buy another crafstman product after this product and the customer service!
Wichita, KS
via sears.com
I got the flex shaft as part of a quick release drill bit set and the first time I used it, it broke. The quick release collar on the shaft is not held on well and comes apart with just a little downward pressure. I would not recommend buying this with the intent of using it daily on tough jobs. Otherwise it works well for projects and is one of the better flex shafts I have seen.
