"Autism Spectrum Disorder and Celiac Disease"....would be a great NEW topic.
Who would like to begin?

So, lots of changes for us. Almost all of the cooking I do is gluten-free. Our evening meals we eat as a family are 100% gluten-free & any cookies, bars or other treats I make are also gluten-free. However, I do still make some favorite gluten items for the non-celiacs in our home...like homeade caramel rolls...as they are a favorite...I don't eat them, obviously. I don't feel like everyone should have to give up everything if they don't have to, yet I know there is a risk of cross-contamination.
With that said, as a Celiac, and a mom of both Celiacs & non-Celiacs, the reality is that our whole family needs to get used to this change & I want it to be as positive as possible. We have years of birthday parties, graduations, weddings, etc. to look forward to & we will probably always have gluten & gluten-free cakes at all of them. I want all 4 of my children to learn to cook g.free.
It is such a personal decision to figure out what works best in your own home.
As far as having children, even if I had known before having children that I am Celiac, I would definately still have had them! Being Celiac is not a horrible thing...just challenging. I often think how thankful I am that changing my diet can increase my health...we are fortunate. There are many people that cannot improve their health with diet. Again, a personal decision, but children are such a blessing! Get connected with a fabulous doctor that can be an encouragement & keep an eye on your health & your child's health...that would be my suggestion if you have children...Celiac or not.

Absolutely it doesn't mean it causes it - but with if its true -that ASD people are 10 times more likely to have Celiac then it is Absolutely worth keeping in mind. It should be studied, as you are probably aware the number of ASD children has risen to 1 in 110 - it was 1 in 160 a couple of years ago. There is obviously something going on. Celiac is on the rise as well, and so are all the other autoimmune diseases. If they are linked then I want to know about it.
My two suspected celiac children are currently being assessed for autism - my two non celiac children are healthy happy and generally not sickly. I am beginning to wonder what it all means and why it all seems to happen to those two.
The connection between autism and celiac disease could easily be a genetic linkage, which means that they might not have anything to do with each other at all. In other words the genes that are necessary for celiac disease may be physically close to the genes that are necessary for autism to develop. Note that being physically close together doesn't mean that those genes encode the same type of thing either. It's much simpler than that. During mitosis, where gene segments from one parent randomly swap places with genes from the other parent, if 2 genes are side by side on the same chromosome, they'll likely remain side by side. This is what's called genetic linkage. The farther apart genes get, the more likely it is they'll be split up. If they aren't on the same chromosome at all, there should be no connection.
I do agree though that there is something going on in the environment to cause increases of auto-immune disorders though.
My bet's on plastics atm. The timeline makes sense and that we haven't found out specifics yet makes sense too. They've only be introduced into society this century. Only around the 1950's (I think?) were they becoming ubiquitous, which means only since the 1970's have mom's been giving birth to kids while they themselves might be passing along the stuff to their fetus. Every year there seems to be another warning about potential harms of specific types of plastics. And in the case of BPS, for example, it's only in tiny amounts from where it has weird effects like mimicking hormones. In larger amounts the immune system recognizes it for what it is, something that shouldn't be there, and I guess it's only that type of reaction that is measured when considering the toxicity of materials.

I work with ASD kids and I can tell you the diet doesn't make a difference. The only thing it wil do is make the kids have less stomach problems IF they're already celiacs.
I must have missed this post. This is from almost a month ago.
In any event, I must completely disagree with your statement that a gluten-free diet doesn't make a difference for those with an ASD. I would not have an issue if you said it didn't make a difference in ALL cases, bit I know from experience it makes a difference for some.
I am autistic and I can assure you that being gluten-free has a huge impact on my ability to relate to others and the world in general. When I have been glutened, I feel much more estranged from people, am more sensitive to sound / odours / touch , cannot express myself and am prone to meltdowns. I describe it as feeling "more autistic". Being on a gluten-free diet doesn't make my autism disappear, it just makes it much more manageable and tolerable.
Saying there is no impact on those with ASD is a very closed minded position to have.

My kids, on the other hand, have eaten like a typical Canadian for 9, 7 or 5 years so it will be harder to switch them over to a healthier gluten-free diet... which I am slowly planning on doing.
The wheat, barley, and rye (and corn) we eat today is soooo genetically modified it barely resembles the grains our great grandparents used. Our bodies are really not designed to consume that stuff as it is now...

Personally...knowing what I know now...I would ABSOLUTELY raise my son gluten-free... Without a doubt in my mind...
I agree with those who said they don't see it as a "punishment"... There's a lot to learn...yes. Takes more effort...yes. Challenging...for sure. BUT IT IS HEALTHIER. Of course, if you are just "substituting" an old, unhealthy "processed" diet with a new, gluten-free "processed" diet...well, you're still just eating "junk", imo...
For me, all that I have learned about the dreaded "gluten", has simply knocked home how bad we've come to eat...live. Case in point: My best friend and I were pregnant at the same time (the kids are 2weeks apart). Her daughter was dx with leukemia at 18 months (she is alive and well and beautiful today...THANK GOD). But, I remember well what her Dr. at Yale-New Haven told my friend, at the time: We live in a cesspool...of chemicals, contaminants, modified this and that... And that it happened SO fast that it is virtually impossible to ever learn the true connections...the impact that this cesspool will/has had on "us". These words have never left me, but learning about celiac/gluten intolerance has really brought it into focus for me.
You see, I, actually, get kind of grossed out when I think about the "junk" now...thinking about putting it in our bodies.
I really believe it's a state of mind...Instead of thinking about all the "goodies" that I can't have, I just feel good that I'm not n that ride anymore... And I want that for my son...above all else.
Fanatic? I don't think so... Realist? Yes...

Honestly though, I saw that there was some debate about the issue (and there is no right or wrong, just personal opinion) but if I had known then what I know now, I wouldn't have children. I love them more than life itself and would sacrifice anything for them, and that includes the joy they have brought me just by having them in my life. I had children out of a selfish desire to be a parent. My doctor is sure I have either lupus or MS but because my insurance sucks we're at am impasse on how to reach a diagnosis of either. I spend every day of my life in pain, which since going gluten free I can only rate a 3-4 most days on the doctor's magic little pain scale. The times it becomes migrating pain I spend weeks at a time debilitated, unable to even get out of bed. My doctor with little other options writes me prescriptions for narcotics telling me he knows I may get addicted but that he can't do anything else for me. When I'm lucky I'm within my window where I can use a course of high dose steroids. If I don't eat tyramine free I'll could go blind. I pray every night that my celiac and endometriosis is the worst my oldest daughter gets from me. If I had it to do all over, I'd spare her the only way that there is.

Would love to be able to re-do all of our diets for at least the last 20 years! Sure would have made a huge improvement in all of our health - we all have wide range of autoimmune problems that likely would have been greatly improved had we known earlier.
This case of 20-20 is a tough one to swallow many days
p.s. oops...just realized I had already answered this months ago -- currently have a hefty dose of brain fog
Undiagnosed Celiac Disease ~ 43 years
3/26/09 gluten-free - dignosed celiac - blood 3/3/09, biopsy 3/26/09, double DQ2 / single DQ8 positive
10/27/09 diagnosed fibromyalgia - supplemented with amino acids - improvement followed by substantial deterioration
maybe one good hour per day for ~17 months
8/10/11 - Elimination Diet for Autoimmune Disease - incredible improvement along with clear reactions to most high lectin foods
only remaining symptom - severe heat intolerance / reaction to heat, humidity and exercise
Tomato, Pepper, Potato, Peanut, Soy, Bean, Pea, Citrus, Pineapple, Avocado, Shellfish, Dairy, Grain, Nut and Seed FREE
3/1/12 - Horrible flare -- same ol' symptoms but worse ~ 7/1/12 - Endo: Active Celiac 3+ years - as gluten-free as humanly possible.
11/15/12 - Improving once again - Almonds back - Eggs gone
12/1/12 - Histamine containing and inducing foods FREE -- probable cause of my heat/exercise "allergy"...
...this was one of my earliest symptoms as a child -- the enzyme (DAO) needed to regulate histamine is created in the small intestine.
If you have read this far - hang in there - obtaining health with any AI is a marathon, not a sprint!

Thanks to joefuzz for bringing this to the southampton release and sending me home with the left overs, enjoyed almost a week after opening. Enjoyed from a mini snifter.
a - brew poured a fairly sludgy muddy orange brown. Not all that attractive
s - super sweet caramel
t/m - surprisingly drinkable. Abv is well integrated and this is easy to sip. Is it sweet? You bet. But the flavor is nice. Sweet caramel. It broke up the beer at the tadting and i am digging on it right now. Not the best beer, but for what it is, this is interesting and enjoyable. Seems like it will hold up, but i have more left and will revisitthe corked bottle again soon.

Thanks to Jeff for giving me a pour of this. Pours a swamp and cloudy brown-yellow hybrid color with absolutely no head. The beer is completely silent and still after the pour, as expected for a brew of this magnitude. A quick swirl generates some moderate legging on the glass, but all-in-all, this beer is pretty ugly.
The aroma is, as Chris pointed out, somewhat similar to Sam Adams Triple Bock.; however, it is much less sweet and not quite so intense (though it is still quite potent). And don't mistake me - Sonoran 200 has a huge sweetness character in the aroma, just not *quite* as large as Triple Bock. Plums, heavy booze, brown sugar, figs, potent perfume, and a heavy nail polish remover scent from the alcohol. Lots going on here, perhaps a bit too much.
After a hefty aroma like that, I'm wondering what this sucker's gonna taste like. Much to my chagrin (and expectation), it's very sweet. But still not nearly as sweet as Triple Bock - Sonoran 200 is much more drinkable, though much more than a few ounces would certainly be too cloying. Nice meshing of caramel apples, candied grapes, melted brown sugar, sticky toffee and syrupy molasses - the flavor profile stretches for miles. And while it's insanely sweet, it's actually not too bad.
The thing that surprises me the most about this is that it's literally not hot at all on the palate. It's almost 20% ABV and yet it feels not even 10%. I was expecting something that was throat and/or gut-burning, but this is neither. I don't know if that's due to the high sweetness offset, or if it has just mellowed out nicely over the years. The mouth feel is heavy, sticky, and trudges slowly through your mouth, but it isn't offensive nor bothersome for an over-the-top brew such as this one.
Thanks again to Jeff for giving me a pour from his bottle. This is one of those crazy experimental brews that it's nice to try at least once, even though it's not something you're going to be cracking very often (both due to the beer's style and it's relative scarcity). This isn't quite as complex and magical as something like Utopias, but it was much more enjoyable than Triple Bock.

Poured from a bottle that looks like it should hold tequila into a tasting snifter.
Appearance: Pours a very murky amber with almost no head at all.
Smell: Really, really sweet. Caramel malt and dark fruit. Lots of alcohol heat.
Taste: Tastes like candy. Lots of dark fruit and carmel. I'm getting some notes that remind me of vanilla and banana. The heat isn't as strong as I would have guessed. Smooth considering.
Mouthfeel: The body is syrupy and the beer is flat. Some alcohol heat.
Overall: Neat to get to try this beer but I don't need more.

The beer appears still and is a hazy, orange, copper hue. The aroma is sweet and boozy. Malty, nutty, fruity, strong, bold, interesting. Caramel malt with some brown sugar, A bit oily on the palate. Low carbonation. Fun to try. Best in small doses.

zero head, murkey dark orange color, almost brown.
smells sweet like honey, brown sugar and alcohol
taste is sweet at first with honey, then a little bit of alcohol then brown sugar and some tequila then some chocolate and more sweetness, maybe maple syrup
mouthfeel is hard to describe because this one's a sipper
overall, I'm not really sure how to rate/review this. It's not like any other beer I've had. Definitely worth a try

A - pours a murky orange color out of the most unique beer bottle I have seen.
S - the nose contains a sweet nectar characteristic with some funkiness and a little bit of agave
T - very sweet, sticky honey lemon fades to honey suckles and sweet syrupy agave flavors. It is a little gingery and maple as well. The abv is very well-masked and not even noticeable in the palate.
M - very smooth body
D - super sweet and the abv is a little limiting, but this is definitely approachable and drinkable for what it is. Worth a shot as this is a very unique beer.

A: The beer ours a flat, hazed, golden-orange color with no head.
S: Sweet. Very sweet with lots of caramel, toffee, bread, and tons of brown sugar. Tons of honey type aromas with some grapes/sweet wine, and definitely some booze.
T: As expected, this one is intensely sweet. Quite mead-like as it has a lot of honey and vinous qualities. Brown sugar, caramel, and toffee add to the sweetness, but there is something almost savory about it. Maybe white sage?
M: Medium bodied with no carbonation.
O: Significantly better than the 100, but still not something I feel the need to try again.

Pour, Color, & Aroma:
First off, the bottle this comes in reminds me of a tequila bottle. It was a square and had a cork topper. The colors and logo itself are very unique and Phoenixesque. I don't normally mention much on the aesthetics of the bottle, but this is one that really stands out. I noticed a significant amount of sedimentation along the bottom of the bottle. When I finally uncorked and poured it, I noticed a lack of any head what-so-ever, pouring similar to a scotch or tequila. As far as clarity, the beer was relatively clear with just a hint of haze.
The aroma was something very unique. Up front I got alcohol. I wasn't sure if I would get much else, but with some patience I started getting a boutique of aromas wafting up underneath the heat. Butter toffee, a hint of sweet rum and brown sugar began taking shape.
Wow. I was not ready for the flavor of this brew. I was expecting an upfront alcohol taste that would mask any other flavors. I was totally wrong. The first thing I thought of was a sweet and sugary syrup. A mellow agave also made its way up that gave way to other dark fruit type flavors such as plum, date and fig. The last thing I was getting was a hint of vanilla from the oak.
Finish and Body:
The finish of this beer may have been its only weakness and a minor one at that. There was a lack of carbonation. I am sure there are reasons for this, but a slightly higher carbonation rate may have helped distract my palate from all the sweetness. Other than that, the body was somewhat on the thicker side due to the sweetness and the alcohol really didn't play as much of a factor as I thought it would.
Final Thoughts:
Overall I was very pleased with this beer. After I finished drinking it, I went to the brewery website and saw a suggestion of adding it to a margarita. I had enough left in my bottle so I did just that. The recipe I used is as follows:
1/4 oz of Don Sergio Tequila
1/4 oz Grand Imperial (Orange liqueur)
1/2 oz of Sonoran Brewing 200
2 1/2 oz of Bone Daddy Margarita Mix (the best I've had!)
The resulting margarita was fantastic. The agave from the beer really came through and complimented the flavors perfectly.
As far as the beer goes, this is one to try. I would recommend sharing it with friends so they have the opportunity to try something truly unique. Prost!

A - Looks like diarrhea in the toilet that sat overnight. Wow this looks awful.
S - Maple syrup, ginseng, weird agave, alcohol, and a really disgusting sweetness. This almost made me gag.
T - Wow this is gross as hell. I literally felt the need to vomit as I tried to get this down. Tastes like sweet, rotten ginseng tea, horrible alcohol, artificial sweetener. Sean took a sip and spit his out in the sink. I choked down enough swallows to be able to tick, but I think it was a mistake.
M - Flat, hot, gross, I can't go on.
O - May very well be the worst beer I've ever had. I seem to have a massively different sense of taste than the people here that are giving this horrible concoction A's. At close to $40 for the bottle, this is a massive rip-off. I'd feel ripped off paying 40 cents for this.

Bottle courtesy of t0rin0. I know you enjoyed the Cantillons I sent you far more than I enjoyed this. Served in a Cigar City snifter immediately after Sonoran 100.
A - This is a little bit lighter than the Sonoran 100, and hazier as well. Looks like some sort of turbid caramel water.
S - Agave nectar, maple syrup, oaky vanilla, and alcohol. Thankfully no bacon or tires. Still somewhat cloying.
T - Taste is a little strange - there's a herbal ginger note mingling with the agave and harsh alcohol burn. Not as overly saccharine as the 100, which already makes it somewhat of an improvement.
M - It's still. Huge alcohol burn and warmth persists throughout. Sticky and full-bodied, although it doesn't linger as long as the 100.
D - Well - I thought this one was better than the 100, but it's still a far cry from Utopias or Sam Adams Millennium (the only other "beers" of this ilk). This was excellent for dipping Twinkies in, or for glazing sausages.

Wow ... this has the distinction of being one of the 10 weirdest beers I've ever had ... AND, it's easily the most alcoholic beer I've ever enjoyed, clocking in at about 19.5%!!! On the nose, this smells like a sweet Belgian Tripel, but on the palate it is surprisingly smooth, and it doesn't taste alcoholic either! Struck me as being somewhat similar to a Tawny Port. Tastes like it would age quite fabulously. I liked this quite a bit, and consider it a real treat that fellow CT'er, fingers, provided the opportunity to try such a unique beer.

The Sonoran 200, poured from a 13.2 oz square bottle made of a very solid glass with a cork top. "Brewed with Agave" the bottle says, and in very small print, 19.37% alcohol. A gift from my brother living in Arizona.
Appearance: Poured from the glass flask into a brandy snifter. Flat. About 6 bubbles form, then pop. Flat looking liqour like beverage, which I have come to expect after reading some reviews. There is also some cloudy brown sediment in different shades. All in all, not very appealing looking for a beer. Still, I was not deterred from embibing.
Smell: Booze. Sweet alcohol. Thats obvious given the strength of the beer. Theres more to it than that. Butterscotch, rum raisens, brown sugar. Very sweet underneath the heat. The smell of this beer filled the room, strong.
Taste: Theres an initial wave of what I can best describe as Agave, reminiscent of a tequila bite but much mellower and indeed sweeter. Sweet sugary fruit like fig, date and plum glance upon the palate. Belgian candy syrup. I give alot of this fruityness credit to the yeast trying really hard to put any ale characteristics into this beverage. I get just a hint of vanilla from the barrel aging. Holy hell! What a crazy bitches brew. Cinnamon, near cloying sweetness. However, on a cold night, I found the warming effects of this beer to be pleasant.
Mouthfeel: Syrupy, zero carbonation. Drinks like Grand Marnier but with less of a bite and more sweetness.
Drinkability: I am thankful I got to try this weird concoction. While I may not be eager to drink another, it was a worthwhile experience and very unique. Proof that Agave can be used in beer, and thats something worth noting.

A - Poured out a slightly cloudy copper color with a small, white head of bubbly foam. Left very little lace. Looks like beer.
S - It smelled incredibly sweet with a strong boozy nose. Sorta smelled like beer.
T - This this is sugary sweet with honey, maple and butterscotch. Kinda tastes like tequila.
M - It was crisp, sharp and finish dry. A light bodied ale with a big-time alcohol warmth. Feels like beer.
D - Overall, though, this is not like beer. It is a little like drinking fire with some beer-like qualities.

After sitting for a while, the Sonoran 200 appears a clear burnt amber color and has almost a quarter inch of sediment piled on the bottom of the rectangular bottle. Good or bad judgment aside, I decided that in order to maximize the scents, flavors, and overall mouthfeel I should give the bottle a few good turns to reunite the sediment with the liquid. Almost immediately, the liquid turned murky with the swirling mix and while it retained most of its burnt amber color, it also made me think of melted butterscotch candy. There was no carbonation, and thus no head, leaving it with quite a solid facade.
I should mention that while I've been keeping the bottle in the refrigerator for safe-keeping, before I tried it, I let it sit out for about an hour to allow it to warm to just slightly cooler than room temperature. By the time I got around to smelling and tasting it, it was probably close to ~60ºF. And when I finally did smell it, holy sweetness Batman! My nose was overwhelmed with heavy shots of maple, even stronger brown sugar aromas mixed with a lighter butterscotch toffee, and what resembled cane sugar, but could have very well been hints of concentrated agave. It smelled like a very sugary candy, with the tiniest bit of alcohol peeking through the amazingly sweet nose.
I was almost afraid to put a drop of this in my mouth for fear of instant cavities, but trusting that the sweetness was due to the intense agave and not fake sugars, I took it sip by sip. I'm going to repeat this: Holy sweetness Batman! This beer is ridiculously super-sweet; like liquid butterscotch candy poured over a melted brown sugar/cane sugar concoction. I was never really able to recover from the initial wave of sugar as the next thing to flood my mouth was lots and lots of agave and maple syrup, both of which carried quite a heavy feel in the thin liquid, smoothing the whole thing out beautifully. With all of the just-short-of-cloying sweetness and the slow swirls of sediment when I mixed it, I expected the beer to present a medium to thick mouthfeel, but found myself thankful of the thinner mouthfeel, as any thicker and it would have been far too dense to enjoy properly. I could only sip it slowly like a cordial and the best way I can find to describe the flat texture - besides thin - is caramely or watered down syrup (without taking away any of the sweetness, of course).
With so many redeeming qualities, including the almost 20%ABV being hid outrageously well by the agave, this is a beer I am happy to say I have tried and it only further increases my appreciation of Sonoran Brewing Company and all of their craft brews. I have tasted the strongest beer in Arizona and it exceeded my expectations. Being able to hold that amount of alcohol and taste more like a liqueur than beer, it's hard to imagine ever labeling this as an American Strong Ale, but that's exactly what it is and it easily takes that category to the next level.

What the hell is this, tequilla beer? Even the bottle looks like a tequilla bottle with a resealable cork. Made with agave, almost 20% ABV, and generously shared by Halcyondays, I had no idea what I was going to get. On to the beer:
Muddy orange in color, with no head forming on top. No real legs either. It looks like someone melted some butterscotch candy to make the liquid. The nose was interesting...okay, the anticipation was. I thought it would be along the lines of Cazadores, but one whiff lit up my nose! It's nothing like tequilla, and instead smells like dessert. Brown sugar, massive maple, custard...hard to believe you could get this out of agave.
Let's see, it's really sweet, and really tasty. You could make creme brulee out of this beer. I want to say maple donuts are what this beer reminds me of. Thinking of this flavor is teasing my taste buds, and they want me to buy a 12-pack of Krispy Kreme's at this minute. What's further amazing is that the alcohol is buried scary well; you'd think Patrick Rue helped these guys. The one majorish criticsm is the thin mouthfeel for such a big beer. Not carbonated either, but having some would probably make things worse.
It's no Utopias, but what is? Sonoran 200 is a great tasting drink, and perhaps one of the best beers to pair with dessert. You'd think the tickers would be all over this beer.

From a 13.2 oz. tequila-esque bottle, bought at the Total Wine in Glendale, AZ,
A: Pours a muddy burnt orange. No head no bubbles, like a liqueur. Hard to rate this aspect.
S: Smells like heaven. A boatload of butterscotch, caramel, vanilla and maple bars. Not since Creme Brulee Stout have I gotten this much butterscotch in a bouquet. Smells like a used glass of armagnac the night after. An easy 5.
T: A lot of residual sugar, big butterscotch/maple as with the smell. Some secondary oak flavours. Unique to any beer I've ever had, this is much more similar to a dessert wine - Brown Muscat, Pedro Ximinez sherry.
M: Flat, but a big body with the high gravity. Smooth, with only a hint of ethanol, I'm glad it's not a boozy mess.
D: I almost passed on this because of the cost, but I'm glad I didn't. This was a treat to try, really even more to smell. If you're near Phoenix, find and try this beer.

Pours from the cool looking little rectangular bottle into the glass a medium amber color, with (not unexpectedly) no head to speak of. Aromas of vanilla, a little caramel and some agave nectar. Taking a sip, I got mostly cloying sweetness and alcohol. Much more like a liqueur than a beer. An interesting experiment, but much too sweet. Thanks to Dan for the opportunity to try this one.

I see that Sonoran 100 was classified as an American Malt Liquor. While I certainly see the argument for classing this as "liquor," I don't see how it has anything to do with that fairly well-defined style. I think this "200" best fits under the catch-all American Strong Ale category, and I place it as such.
Poured a small measure from the square bottle into a very large snifter, at room temperature - 70 degrees, according to my thermostat. Clear light amber. Small smattering of bubbles from the pour, but this is not carbonated, nor was it intended to be. I pretty much have to punt on the appearance, I have no idea. Hell, it looks fine for what it's trying to be, so I figure it has to go somewhere between 3.5-4.0.
As you would expect, it has quite the aroma - a lot of maple, cane sugar, vanilla, pipe tobacco. This was brewed with agave, but I'm not sure I smell any. I happen to have a container of agave nectar on me, so I unscrew the top and smell that...wow, that smells really weird. I don't smell any of that in this "beer." Still a very nice aroma. It smells a bit like this Perique tobacco liqueur I have.
Taste-wise, it's extra sweet. Come on - what did you expect? Of course it is. I get a lot of the pipe tobacco that I smelled - and *here* is the agave nectar. You definitely taste it. That, tobacco, rum-soaked figs, vanilla, maple, all the big-beer flavors are here. It doesn't taste all that alcoholic....frankly, it's so sweet, I think the sugar hides most of the ABV. With this particular beer, it's not a weakness. It's beer/liqueur candy. If you're not expecting anything other than that out of this, you'll be fine. It's a sippin' cordial, and a good one.
Feel? 4th and 15 at my own 20, I punt. It's flat and has a slightly viscous feel. Pretty much exactly what it's trying to be.
Tempted to punt on drinkability too, but in actuality it's pretty drinkable as these things go. Sure, you'll never drink a pint glass full of this. Yet, in terms of shots, drams, small snifter servings....it's pretty damned tasty, and I could have a few small measures of it.

Real-time bidding (RTB) provides a great opportunity for companies to vastly increase their online presence to an interested audience.
However, as this market continues to grow, the options available to brands for management of their RTB increase and choosing the right agency for your company's needs becomes harder.
One of the main problems faced with anyone researching their options for RTB management is that they have to navigate a minefield of display ecosystems, agencies, DSPs, trading desks etc.
However, in choosing an RTB agency to build and manage successful campaigns the most important first questions to ask are not always the most technical.
Having been involved with a number of RTB pitches and working with our clients we have found they have gained the most from asking questions such as those outlined below:

In a competitive real-time bidding marketplace it is important for demand-side platforms (DSPs) to deliver a high level of service and manage client expectations, however our new Online Advertisers Survey Report suggests that this isn't always the case.
On the plus side though, marketers also appear to be pleased with the targeting and reporting capabilities that DSPs can offer.
In fact, improved targeting was cited as the main benefit (67%) of working with DSPs, followed by real-time understanding of campaign performance (53%) and the ability to buy at impression level (53%).

The benefits of RTB (real-time bidding) are something that's often debated in marketing circles, as though it has obvious advantages in allowing advertisers to name their price for specific users RTB is criticised for relying on poor ad inventory and resulting in inflated prices.
But regardless of where you stand on the relative pros and cons of RTB, it's fair to say that the technology has fundamentally altered the way that online advertising is bought and sold.
Our new Online Advertisers Survey Report asked 650 advertisers and agencies about the benefits of real-time bidding and found that more than half of advertisers see improved performance (62%) as the main advantage.
This was followed by reduced wastage (54%), lower cost per acquisition (53%) and better targeting capabilities (46%).

Over 100 senior marketers attended our inaugural roundtable event in Hong Kong last month.
They deftly explored and shared nimble ways to utilise the very latest digital marketing ideas and techniques in order to better equip themselves for their future endeavours.
Some were intent on making stronger inroads into mainland China, others were planning on taking full advantage of the small but also highly lucrative local Hong Kong marketplace (a jewel in the China crown), and for a fair number it was to better hone their abilities and skills to market across the whole APAC region.

One thing is certain: RTB is going to continue to grow, and is already established as the de facto transaction protocol for remnant display buying and selling.
The ad network Emperor has found his new clothes in RTB. This now being settled, why would any premium publisher want to RTB-enable their premium direct inventory?
by Petteri Vainikka 08 May 2013 10:17am 1 comment
Despite the fact that real-time bidding is a complex and sometimes confusing space, media buyers and sellers alike continue to flock to RTBs, a trend that experts don't believe will end any time soon.
Real-time bidding, of course, isn't the end-all and be-all of digital advertising, and there are numerous areas for concern.
But is the entire model for how ads are bought and sold via RTBs broken?

The executive board and those involved in the decision to fire Paul Kelly as the NHLPA's executive director are expected to answer questions on Monday as day two of the Players Associations meetings are underway.
Why? Will be among the first questions asked as many around the hockey community come to grips with the news of Kelly's dismissal.
Whispers of unhappiness with Kelly's distance with some players was itemized as a concern going into Sunday's showdown, while a perception Kelly may have been too close to the NHL commissioners office was also offered by a source close to the battle as an issue as well.
But, there has to be more to it than that, and we will find out when the players and board members face the TSN camera this morning.
The board met on Sunday for over 10 hours in Chicago. Much of that time, Paul Kelly spent waiting with his supporters (Glenn Healy and Pat Flatley) in a hotel corridor.
He was invited in at least three times, the last being just after 3:30am eastern.
At this point Kelly was given news of his demise.
He bolted from the boardroom visibly upset, he refused to comment and simply retreated to where Healy, Flatley and others were waiting before quickly leaving the area all together.
There was a brief gathering of the divisional players reps with interim ombudsman Buzz Hargrove, general counsel Ian Penny and advisory board head, Ron Pink mulling about before the entire group retired after an incredibly long day.
At times, it was fascinating to watch.
Sources say there were moments of heated debate in the meeting, especially early into the discussions when Kelly and Healy passionately argued their case.
Hargrove was clearly a key player in this power shift and he was called in and out of the main board discussion on a number of occasions, the first including a presentation detailing some of Kelly's alleged flaws.
Will Hargrove assume a position of power?
Will Ron Pink be given a job he interviewed for but didn't get?
Will Ian Penny's name be raised as a possible replacement as the board now must determine who will be Paul Kelly's successor.
Some of these questions will be answered as the day unfolds, so stay tuned...

We Tried It! The Best Microwave Sandwiches
It's nearly impossible to judge the calorie and fat content of a made-to-order deli sandwich. The alternative: One of the growing number of diet-friendly microwaveable sandwiches. Here are our top picks:
Lean Pockets Ham & Cheese Ultra200 calories, 6g fat, 2.5g saturated fat
Among those we tried, this sandwich ranks highest in protein and fiber (25 grams and 7 grams, respectively) and lowest in calories -- though you'd never guess it from the smoky, cheesy flavor.
270 calories, 6g fat, 2.5g saturated fat
One of the few vegetarian sandwich options available, it's stuffed with fresh-tasting zucchini, spinach, and peppers, all smothered in tomato sauce and cheese.
280 calories, 7g fat, 3g saturated fat
The silver-sided box actually "grills" the two thick sourdough bread slices to crisp perfection. Stuffed inside are mesquite-seasoned chicken, veggies, cheese, and a mildly spicy sauce.

| Mystery Partition - Accidentally Put Data on System Partition?? Hello, I was really hoping somebody could help us. It's a bit of a strange situation we're in but I'll try to keep the facts as concise as possible. Computer running Windows 7 Ultimate x64, 1TB Hard Drive. Yesterday my boyfriend discovered an 'extra' partition on his computer. He'd never seen it before and was very much enthused at having the extra space to store files etc, but sadly didn't question what, how or why this showed up randomly. Skip to today... he went to access some of the files he put on the mystery drive, but discovered the whole thing wasn't there anymore. Cue a lot of swearing, trying to figure out what happened. We've collectively been trying to find out what might have happened for the entire day and haven't got too far. The only idea I've struck upon is that maybe for some reason the System Reserved partition became visible and/or active for a short period of time - eg. enough time for him to start loading files into that area, but then hidden itself again? Is this even a possible or plausible idea? If this is the case, how the heck do we get the partition to show up again and access the 'lost' data... the partition obviously isn't showing up anymore and for the life of us, we can't get it to show up using partition recovery tools either >_< Sorry for sounding totally 'noobish' - any thoughts, suggestions or ideas would be really great. ~ BitBat |

It sounds like he likely copied files over to the 100mb system reserved partition. Here's a look at you would expect to see on that when booted from a live cd. Note the screenshot was made while booted in a Linux distro at the time in order to view the default files and folders present on that. |

| Hello BitBat, welcome to Seven Forums! To access the "System Reserved" partition it may be as simple as assigning the partition a "Drive Letter" in disk management; if you do so be sure to remove the letter again after the files that got moved there are retrieved and DON'T move anything else from that partition. |

With a twist, Immerset looks to change pour-over coffee
Small things can make a big difference. Obviously this is true with coffee. The little bean transforms easily into a robust popular beverage that shows no sign of slowing down. If anything, coffee is gaining steam; new ways to brew the dark elixir of life seem to sprout up every day. Sometimes, like coffee itself, all it takes is a little change to make a big difference.
The Immerset Kickstarter campaign takes two traditional methods for brewing coffee and gives them a twist. Literally. A small, helical valve is the secret to what inventor Chic Kelty thinks will make a … Read more

Did you know that the height of some individual waves may be twice the height of the forecast seas? And may present an even greater danger near shore?
As of February 15, 1989, the National Weather Service retired its Coastal Warning Display network nationwide.
For over 100 years, display stations were established at yacht clubs, marinas, and Coast Guard stations to hoist flags, pennants and colored lights to warn mariners of storms at sea. The display stations were individually notified by the National Weather Service to raise the signals and again to lower them when the hazards passed. The National Weather Service paid for the visual signals; however, the display stations were operated by other agencies or volunteers. Although the Coastal Warning Display program has been formally discontinued, U.S. Coast Guard and other stations may continue to display warning signals without the direct participation of the National Weather Service.
News - Beginning June 1, 2007, U.S. Coast Guard formally re-established a Coastal Warning Display program at selected small boat stations which will hoist display flags to warn of small craft advisories, gale warnings, storm warnings and hurricane warnings.
The Coastal Warning Display program was de-emphasized in favor of frequently updated telephone recordings and NOAA Weather Radio. The latter covers the coastal areas of continental United States, Alaska, Hawaii, and the Mariana Islands with continuous weather broadcasts. The major shortcomings of the Coastal Warning Display program were that the displays reached only the small portion of the marine public within sight of them; it cannot convey specific information on movement, intensity, and duration; and the time required to notify the sites by individual telephone calls takes the forecaster away from critical tasks associated with the weather. Further, when users perceive them to be a full substitute for NOAA Weather Radio, other radio broadcasts, and the telephone recordings, they are actually being a disservice.
SMALL CRAFT ADVISORY: An advisory issued by coastal and Great Lakes Weather Forecast Offices (WFO) for areas included in the Coastal Waters Forecast or Nearshore Marine Forecast (NSH) products. Thresholds governing the issuance of small craft advisories are specific to geographic areas. A Small Craft Advisory may also be issued when sea or lake ice exists that could be hazardous to small boats. There is no precise definition of a small craft. Any vessel that may be adversely affected by Small Craft Advisory criteria should be considered a small craft. Other considerations include the experience of the vessel operator, and the type, overall size, and sea worthiness of the vessel. There is no legal definition of "small craft". The Small Craft Advisory is an advisory in Coastal Waters and Nearshore forecasts for sustained winds, frequent gusts, or sea/wave conditions, exceeding defined thresholds specific to geographic areas. A Small Craft Advisory may also be issued when sea or lake ice exists that could be hazardous to small boats.
Eastern (ME..SC, Lake Erie, Lake Ontario) - Sustained winds or frequent gusts ranging between 25 and 33 knots (except 20 to 25 knots, lower threshold area dependent, to 33 knots for harbors, bays, etc.) and/or seas or waves 5 to 7 feet and greater, area dependent.
Central (MN..OH) - Sustained winds or frequent gusts (on the Great Lakes) between 22 and 33 knots inclusive, and/or seas or waves greater than 4 feet.
Southern (GA..TX and Caribbean) - Sustained winds of 20 to 33 knots, and/or forecast seas 7 feet or greater that are expected for more than 2 hours.
Western (WA..CA) - Sustained winds of 21 to 33 knots, potentially in combination with wave heights exceeding 10 feet (or wave steepness values exceeding local thresholds).
Alaska (AK) - Sustained winds or frequent gusts of 23 to 33 knots. A small craft advisory for rough seas may be issued for sea/wave conditions deemed locally significant, based on user needs, and should be no lower than 8 feet.
Hawaii (HI), Samoa - Sustained winds 25 knots or greater and seas 10 feet or greater.
Guam and the Northern Mariana Islands - Sustained winds 22 to 33 knots and/or combined seas of 10 feet or more.
"Frequent gusts"are typically long duration conditions (greater than 2 hours).
For a list of NWS Weather Offices by Region, refer to the following website: http://www.nws.noaa.gov/organization.php
GALE WARNING: To indicate winds within the range 34 to 47 knots are forecast for the area.
STORM WARNING: To indicate winds 48 knots and above, no matter how high the speed, are forecast for the area. However, if the winds are associated with a tropical cyclone (hurricane), the STORM WARNING indicates that winds within the range 48-63 knots are forecast.
HURRICANE WARNING: An announcement that hurricane conditions (sustained winds of 74 mph or higher) are expected somewhere within the specified coastal area. Because hurricane preparedness activities become difficult once winds reach tropical storm force, the hurricane warning is issued 36 hours in advance of the anticipated onset of tropical-storm-force winds.
NOTE: A "HURRICANE WATCH" is an announcement that hurricane conditions (sustained winds of 74 mph or higher) are possible within the specified coastal area. Because hurricane preparedness activities become difficult once winds reach tropical storm force, the hurricane watch is issued 48 hours in advance of the anticipated onset of tropical-storm-force winds.
NOTE: A SPECIAL MARINE WARNING is issued whenever a severe local storm or strong wind of brief duration is imminent and is not covered by existing warnings or advisories. No visual displays will be used in connection with the Special Marine Warning Bulletin; boaters will be able to receive these special warnings by keeping tuned to a NOAA Weather Radio station or to Coast Guard and commercial radio stations that transmit marine weather information.

Iconic candy meets stand-up pouch
Contract packaging
Like many consumer packaged goods manufacturers with a new package format to try, Necco elected to go the contract packager route rather than install pouch filling equipment of its own. Ryt-way Industries, LLC produces both 16-oz pouches of Sweethearts and 14-oz pouches of Sweetheart Dazzle Tarts. "The Tarts have a slightly sassy quality that speaks to 'tweens,'" says Scott. "These are consumers who want to share sweet expressions similar to what are found on regular Sweethearts. But the expressions they favor have a little more punch and are borrowed from what you'd expect to find in text messages or tweets. The flavors, too, are more tart than sweet."
Ryt-way uses a Bartelt RPM hf/f/f system to produce the Necco pouches. Applied on line, the zipper material is from Zip-Pack.
The suggested retail price for the 16-oz stand-up pouch of Sweethearts is $2.67. Scott says the stand-up pouch with its re-closeable zipper feature permits a 15 to 25% premium in on-shelf pricing compared to a lay-flat pillow pouch holding the same 16 oz. "Consumers are willing to pay more for a package that communicates value the way this package does," says Scott.
Mass merchandisers like Target and Walmart were the first retailers to jump on the Sweethearts stand-up pouch bandwagon. "Target was among the biggest supporters," says Scott. But she also notes that a number of grocery store chains are on the list of retailers who are taking shipment of the new package.
"One thing the grocery chains are trying to do is capture purchase occasions from the mass merchandisers," says Scott. "A package like this that generates impulse purchases can help them do that."

Spreading autism awareness as Tuesday marks World Autism Awareness Day. The entire month of April is dedicated to shedding more light on the condition which continues to grow in prevalence.
Families that are sharing their stories include the Medingers in Clinton. Nine-year-old Kyle has a very severe form of autism and is not able to verbally communicate. His mother wishes there were more resources in her area to help and that the public would better understand the struggles so many families face.
"He's my bean. It's hard to sit there and watch him and not know what you can do to make it better," said Jennifer Medinger. "We need care groups for parents to get together so we can have suggestions to help each other out. We can all sit down and talk."
A new government study shows one in 50 children have some form of autism. For World Autism Awareness Day thousands of people are coming together to "light it up blue" by wearing the color and even changing porch lights to blue to help shine a light on autism.
