Poured a near pitch black color with huge oof-white head I had to wait a few minutes to drink it so the head could go down,smell was of deep roasted coffee and bitter chocolate.Taste was coffeeish and roasty with some earthiness lingering in there as well.A nice complex stout but a little watery.It is slightly different then the bottle I had a few months ago not quite as chocolaty,not sure if this was an older bottle or a different recipe.

Appearance Very dark, almost black, in the body with a decent head that went down quick and clean.
Smell The dark roasted coffee flavors are here in force along with a hint of chicory. If youve ever had chicory in coffee before, this one is close.
Taste This one delivers. The coffee is big and prominent. This is more like drinking an iced coffee than a beer. The malt is present though and very flavorful. The cocoa powder compliment rounds out the taste.
Mouthfeel Thinner than I would have preferred but otherwise good in the mouth. It has the creamy texture of a cold, pressed cup of coffee with a little sweetness to soften the bite.
Drinkability This one went down nicely and helped cool my mouth in between salsa tastings.

Thin red brown body with a short lived, carbonated head. Aroma is almost all coffee with just a pinch of nuttiness and smoke. Flavor has no distinguishing chicory, however, tons of roasted coffee and some vanilla and banana notes are present. Dry but unbalanced. Too thin and not very exciting.

Pours thick and dark, black with hints of brown; quickly dissipating, tan colored head comprised of big bubbles. The aroma up front is very pleasing - "real" chocolates, deep, deep chocolate candies and cocoa beans, bittersweet. Roasted malts, of course, are abundant in their most raw form. Sweetness can be detected on the nose, as can a touch of smokiness. Surprisingly thin body, especially since the pour looked to be quite thick. Roasty up front, touch of smoked wood chips which is quickly displaced by sweet chocolate flavored malts; some cocoa beans, light coffee flavors. Quite a heavy floral hop flavor profile, which is always nice to balance things out in a stout. It might actually be a little TOO prominent near the end, but maybe I'm just being nit-picky. The smokiness comes back a bit in the aftertaste - I guess that's the "chicory", although I never would have guessed chicory of it wasn't in the name of the beer. Medium-high amount of carbonation.
Eh, this one is okay. It was good at first, but I kind of started to grow tired of it. It wasn't offering anything more as it went on, and it kind of got one-dimensional and boring. Nice hop profile, but actually kind of weak on the malt robustness I was expecting.

This was the most interesting stout have had in a while partly because it wasn't very interesting. There was definately no "thud" as the pour hit the bottom of the glass. I felt this was a lighter bodied stout, somthing that I am not used to be offered in the winter months. The lack of distinct smell definately allows the flavor to ambush you. The pour left a relatively indiscript dark brown stout in my glass topped with a tanish head. The first sip is fantastic with no unpleasant lingering of flavor on the back of your tongue. The mouth feel is as average as a stout's could be, again allowing the flavor to be the star. This was a terrific beer that I enjoyed over the several days that it remained on tap. I would highly recommend this beer to anyone for drinking or braising!

12oz. bottle poured into a tulip glass.
Bottled on 10/31/08 so beer was about 15.5 months old at time of drinking
It pours a deep rich brown with a cappuccino colored head that dies quickly into a perimeter of bubbles around the glass.
The nose seems like a nice marriage of dark malts, licorice, subtle coffee. A nice sweet smell is on the back end
The taste starts with a little bit of roasted malts and coffee like flavors then transitions into a real unique kind of taste that i can only describe it is it reminds me of the way a beer tastes when it's been oak aged but without the wood taste. I mean by that it gets kind of dry in the middle and sucks the rest of the flavors away. It finishes pretty dry in the mouth despite a nice sweetness up front. It's quite unique and still pretty strong after over a year in the bottle. I am getting some age and oxidation of this beer but it isn't over the top at this point but I do not see it getting any better. I'd say 12 months is a good lifespan.

Poured from a 12 oz bottle into a pint glass.
Pours a very dark brown, practically black, with a very light brown or off-white soapy head of perhaps 1-2 fingers. Nice retention of several minutes and some nice lacing.
There is plenty of dark roasted coffee on the nose with some interesting earthy notes in there.
Dark roasty malted flavors of coffee and dark chocolate. Some subtle sweetness is in there as well that adds to the mouthfeel and works to bring everything together. There is some bittering but it's hard to tell if it is from the roast or from whatever hops were used. There is a touch of pine-laced hops in the finish but the linger is all dark bitter coffee.
Mouthfeel is good, not too heavy but well matched for the flavors. The carbonation matches well and only lends to the decent mouthfeel.
Overall this is another great product from Dogfish Head and I would expect nothing less. A very good brew and recommended to anyone out there that enjoys a good coffee stout.

The DFH Chicory Stout pours into my SN tulip glass a deep charcoal black with a half inch of bubbly khaki head that recedes to a cap over the brew. Aromas feature dark, roasted, slightly smoky malts along with raisins, baking cocoa and earthy coffee. Smells fresh with a slight vinous background.
First sip brings a roasty, toasty maltiness along with a mellow smoky coffee flavor. There's an interesting earthy cocoa flavor that I'm guessing is from the chicory. Hints of vinous dark fruits and raisins appear again in the background along with some hops. Somewhat dry and slightly pasty. Lingering chalkiness and an astringent character that makes my mouth tingle. An interesting stout.
Mouthfeel is pleasing with good body and a vibrant carbonation that propels each sip. An enjoyably different stout that I wouldn't mind enjoying on occassion. Fairly easy drinking. I'd say this one is worth your time.

This was a mildly exciting beer. It was a black color with a coffee-colored head. The odor was all dark chocolate and coffee. It tasted like black coffee with a little chocolate and hops in the background. It was smooth and rich, but I think I expected more from it.

Notes from 2/4/11
A - Pours black with two fingers of brown head that leaves some lacing as it goes.
S - Earthy roasted malts and chicory. Not much else.
T - Coffee much more apparent in the taste than the smell, followed by roasted, slightly burnt, malts. A bit too ashy for my taste, but not horrible.
M - Medium, slightly creamy mouthfeel with some subtle lingering bitterness.
O - A decent stout, but not something I would go back to. The over roastedness isn't a flavor I find appealing.

The first thing I notice about this pour is the sound of its fizz--ample carbonation, I suppose. A full five minutes after the pour, carbon dioxide bubbles still head to the surface. Quite simply, it's black like a stout. Lacing is average. All in all, this is an average-looking stout. +0.5 for the DFH font--I'm notorious for including the label/bottle in my appearance rating.
The first smell I got was Mexican coffee--pleasingly so. When I dip my nose into the glass, I smell the roast. With help from the label, I identify that as chicory. After a quick glance at what chicory is, my next aroma descriptor is herbal. I like it, and it's certainly more unique than the look.
I like the taste. The roasted taste sorta sits on my lips, and I enjoy its presence. It's a nice Mexican coffee taste that I probably enjoy more in this cold beer than I would in a hot coffee pot. The roasted chicory taste really smoothes out things. I can't help but wonder how this would work with more ABV. I guess I'm used to big-boy coffee imperial stouts that offer more bang and more warmth. I'm debating whether a stout at 5.2% ABV and what I'm guessing is 300 calories is worth it to me...then I look it up and see 185 calories/12oz serving! That's impressive. Surely that's not characteristic of a stout? Still, I can picture myself enjoying this beer at Christmas with chestnuts roasting on an open fire.
The mouthfeel is average. The aformentioned carbonation does what you'd expect as you hold the beer with mouth closed. +0.5 for the roasted lip-taste sensation. I like the taste of this beer, and I'm almost giddy it's "only" 185 calories. To me, it's another unique and worthwhile effort from Dogfish Head. I mean--Mexican coffee/roasted chicory! Now only if I had an imperial DFH coffee (maybe oatmeal or maple syrup) production to review....

12 oz bottle. Pours a dark brown with a creamy tan head that retains well and laces the glass.
The aroma is lactose and sweet chocolate with some coffee and leather and smoke. It's pleasant at first but becomes more metallic and leathery as it sits.
The flavor is a bit subdued - chocolate malts with a little coffee and some strange bitterness at the end. The mouthfeel is medium bodied with creamy carbonation.
Overall, an interesting beer. Some off notes keep it from being better. I'd like to see more coffee.

i had been eyeing dogfish head's chicory stout for awhile at my local package store and decided to give it a shot:
Appearance- mocha colored head, almost inch thick, strong lacings. coffee black color, after head settles it really looks like a glass of coke.
Smell- smells like burnt coffee with hints of dark chocolate. i really had to get my nose into this beer to coax the smell out but pleasant once it hit the nostrils. very smoky.
Taste- cold bitter coffee and smoky at first which leads to a chocolately sweet finish, really earthy. alcohol is not really present. aftertaste is strange and very strong.
Mouthfeel- medium body with noticeable carbonation.
Drinkability- this beer is fairly drinkable especially if you really enjoy coffee and i could see myself drinking this once and a while but i would definitely have to be in the mood for it. it is not a standout stout but worth a try.

Paris chocolatier, Jean-Paul Hevin's favorite color is an intense cobalt blue. It's mine too, in case you hadn't noticed. I can't get enough blue paint in my watercolors...
I bought the blue tin on the right full of macarons last trip just for painting purposes of course. This display is from Jean-Paul Hevin's shop on 231, rue Saint-Honore.
Last May, I stayed in a studio just a few doors down from his 3, rue Vavin shop, so I went in or at least looked in daily = heaven. I could buy a quiche + dessert + a very small piece of chocolate for lunch = heaven/Hevin
I fell victim to this dessert in a glass (Verrine Mascarpone) just because it looked so pretty - painting purposes again...
I haven't made it yet to Hevin's de la Motte Picquet shop -> next trip.
And next trip, I WILL GO UPSTAIRS TO the SALON DE THE on rue Honore!
Jean-Paul Hevin's new book..it's not here yet. You have to order it from Amazon.fr :(

About Audi 5000
The Audi 5000 made its debut in 1983, and for its time was revered as the most aerodynamic sedan on the market. It boasted a host of features that made it one of the most drooled over vehicles of its time. Innovations in the fields of performance and style made it an eye catching regularly talked about vehicle. It combined new aesthetically pleasing features such as flush glass, unsculptured sides and "black out" trim made it an appealing vehicle for all Audi enthusiasts and others alike. The platform for the Audi 5000 was copied by many competitors for years to come. Models such as the Mazda 323 and Toyota Camry were almost direct knock-offs of the Audi 500. The interior of the Audi 5000 was just as impressive of the exterior and made the cockpit of the vehicle feel like a second home to its drivers.

FRG is the most logical poster on this board. You guys just don\'t like where the logical conclusions take you.
Almost every contract Dominik has written has made a player one of the five highest paid at their positions. Not easy to play hardball after you gave Quincy Black $35 million.
Every time I see last post JC5100, I have to click on it.... Pure comedy.
This offseason has been a "C" in my books, but that's another topic....
Don't know if it is even feasible because I'm not a contract expert but could the Bucs cut VJ after this year to pay MW like a 1? Would you be willing to cut bait on Jackson in order to keep the younger guy?

1980 Crompond Road, Cortlandt Manor, NY 10567
See complete Beard Bash photo album on Facebook
Cortlandt Manor, NY - (February 28, 2012) – Lather up! Some of the 29 men from Hudson Valley Hospital Center who grew their beards this month to raise money for the Hospital's Cancer Center lined up at the Quiet Man Public House in Peekskill to have their whiskers shaved.
More than 150 people attended the "Shave Off" at the "Beard Bash" on February 27 which marked the end of a month-long fundraiser for the Hospital's Cheryl R. Lindenbaum Comprehensive Cancer Center. Doctors, male nurses, administrative staff and friends and relatives of Hospital staff volunteered to grow their beards out for the month of February to raise money for the Cancer Center.
The volunteers paid $50 each to enter the "Winter Whiskers" fundraising contest and recruited donors to sponsor them. In addition to the "shave off", the evening event featured prizes for the Most Money Raised, Wildest Beard, Longest Beard, and Most Creative Fundraising Tactics.
"The Winter Whiskers fundraiser has created a fun buzz around the hospital," said HVHC President, John Federspiel, who competed in the contest. "This type of campaign not only raises important funds that are needed but also awareness for the important services that the Cancer Center brings to the community.''
The men began growing their beards on February 1 after submitting their entry fee and a photo of their clean shaven faces.
It's not too late to contribute to the cause even if you didn't grow you're beard or sponsor one of the contestants. Visit hvhc.npgdev.com to make an online donation. Donations can also be mailed to: The Foundation of Hudson Valley Hospital Center, 1980 Crompond Road, Cortlandt Manor, NY 10567. Checks should be made out to the Foundation of HVHC.
The Hospital has so far raised about $15,000 hopes from the "Winter Whiskers" event as part of a $5 million fundraising campaign to offset the cost of the Cancer Center, which opened on November 17.
Special thanks to The Quiet Man which generously donated the food for the evening while Depot Wine & Liquors added to the fun with a fabulous Bourbon Tasting. Michael Warde of Montana for men donated his services to shave the Winning Whiskers participants and Tim Murphy provided live tunes for the evening.

WBC Invitational
The first WBC Invitational was held on the 7th and 8th of October 2011 on Lake David located in Groveland, Florida. There were 10 competitors, including some of the world's best, as well as the up-and-coming "young guns" that were competing for the largest cash prize this sport has seen-with up to $20,500 being paid out. Countries included America, New Zealand, Australia, Great Britain, South Africa and Holland.
This wasn't just a traditional barefoot competition. This tournament used a new format of head-to-head competition. Also being trialed was the instant scoring system, where there was only one judge and one scorer in the boat, meaning the skiers knew their scores straight away. There was a lot of very positive feedback and both the viewers and the skiers loved it. We also had the live broadcast on the website for everyone to view. There were around 1000 viewers from all over the world, on both the 7th and 8th.
The competition kicked off around 8.30am on the Friday after interviews with both the skiers and officials were broadcast live to the world, and the American Anthem was played. The weather was looking a little average, however it held out for most of the day and the skiers were able to get some good results. The first day consisted of 2 rounds of each event - tricks, slalom and jump. After the 2 elimination rounds the group was cut down to just 8 skiers.
Saturday was the beginning of the head-to-head competition; this is where it was going to get interesting. Conditions were not looking too good and they weren't expected to get any better as the day went on, so the competition had to go on. The wind was howling and the rain had set in. The trick event kicked off, first on the water was Ashleigh Stebbeings (AUS), up against 2 Time World Champion Keith St. Onge (USA). Lucky Ashleigh. The big upset came later on in the bracket when Brendan Paige (AUS), faced St. Onge in the Semi Finals of tricks. Paige stood up two solid passes and put the pressure on St. Onge. Keith went down early, and was nudged out of the Tricks Finals by 2050 points. The Tricks Finals were held later that day, and resulted in Paige taking 2nd place to Current World Champion, David Small (GBR), with Ben Groen (NZL) picking up 3rd place.
With the Slalom event underway, the wind was really going hard now. Athletes were pushed to their limit to fight the conditions, with a couple of skiers going down as they entered the course due to the chop down one end of the lake. Ben Groen (NZL), gave the crowd a show as he went down entering the course on his second pass, and simply refused to let go. After falling out the front and bouncing on his stomach and back, he tumbled back up and completed his second pass, knocking out Brendan Paige (AUS), and ending up with 4th place, after a loss to David Small (GBR) in the Semi Finals. Florida Southern Student, A.J Porreca (USA), grabbed the 3rd position, and
Small went on to battle it out against, Keith St. Onge (USA), later that day and managed a close 2nd, with the Slalom Titan (St. Onge) living up to his name and taking 1st.
With only one event left before the tournament was all wrapped up, the weather decided to let up a little, and the skiers were graced with some nice conditions for jumping.
David Small (GBR) was up first on the water and his natural, cool, calm self, going up against "young gun", Cody Ebbert (USA). After flying over Ebbert, Small had a slight challenge with A.J Porreca (USA), who kept the "Jumping Guru" and 5-time, undefeated, World Jump Champion on his toes, right to the last jump. With Small now in the Finals, it would come down to Ben Groen (NZL), who had jumped a New Zealand record of 25.1m the day before, against Keith St. Onge (USA) who had jumped 25.3m the previous day. St. Onge stepped up and planted a sweet 24.9m jump on the board, which was enough to knock out Groen by a meter, giving his 3rd place. With yet another clash of the titans in the Finals, Small proved his worth and pulled one back over St. Onge, picking up 1st Place, and 2nd Overall for the tournament, with Ben Groen coming in behind him at 3rd, and Keith St. Onge, taking out 1st place Overall.
David (1st)
Brendan (2nd)
Ben (3rd)
Keith (1st)
David (2nd)
AJ (3rd)

We would like to give a huge thank you to all the skiers, officials and organizing committee for this event. Without the help and support of everyone involved, this competition just wouldn't have been possible. We hope that this tournament is just the first of many to come.

Cardinals' Hard Nine hard to stop
Pujols' ninth-inning heroics breathe life into St. Louis
HOUSTON -- One moment, they were battered and bruised, and the reality that their season was only one strike away from ending in despair was staring them right in the face.The next moment, they were alive and kicking, and heading home to St. Louis, barely needing a jet to help them soar through the clouds. The Cardinals and their superstar, Albert Pujols, delivered their shining moment Monday night in Game 5 of the National League Championship Series. Their backs to the wall, they reinvented this series and created a legacy for themselves no matter what happens the rest of the way. Their remarkable ninth-inning comeback, punctuated by Pujols' tremendous three-run blast to the far reaches of Minute Maid Park, showed that this Cardinals team has fortitude that, frankly, they hadn't really needed to demonstrate until they were down to their very last swing of the 2005 season. They remain a physical wreck, injured and dinged up all the way through the roster. But Monday, they showed they're an absolutely resolute team mentally, able to scale the highest mountain of doubt and despair and come out on top. Staring elimination in the face, they laughed and swung away. Going down in five games apparently just wasn't an option. "For the kind of club we have and the kind of year we had, losing four in a row would have been tough to take, because we're a better club than that," Cardinals manager Tony La Russa said. They won 100 games in the regular season. They have a Cy Young candidate, an MVP candidate, a roster full of fine-tuned professionals who know how to play the game right. They're the defending NL champs, so you know they're a good club. But the Cardinals were never better than they were in the ninth inning of Monday's Game 5. And Pujols, their star of stars, has never been better than when he sent Brad Lidge's 0-and-1 pitch soaring to left field for the go-ahead homer. "You saw some magic there," La Russa said. Said Pujols: "I just couldn't believe I did it." Believe it. And believing is what got the Cardinals there in the first place. "It's never over. You've got to play 27 outs," veteran right fielder Larry Walker said.
That's all three outs in all nine innings. That's something that La Russa preaches and the Cardinals heed to a man. Not that the Cardinals invented it, but the concept even has its own motto among the players."The guys coined the phrase 'Hard Nine,' and we're going to play a hard nine," their manager said. But even La Russa had to admit thoughts started creeping into his head that the 27th out wasn't going to be a happy one for the Cardinals, and the Astros were starting to sense the World Series was within their grasp after Lidge struck out the first two batters he faced in the ninth. "In fact, I looked over a couple of times and I was just kind of checking [Astros veteran Jeff] Bagwell out and I could imagine what he was thinking," La Russa said of the man who's played 2,150 games without reaching the World Series. Before La Russa could consider those thoughts too deeply, the Cardinals put together a comeback for the ages. Actually, the comeback began not long after the Astros' Lance Berkman had connected on a three-run shot in the seventh that put Houston seemingly on course for its first World Series in 44 years of existence. And when it came down to the ninth, there were no non-believers in that Cardinals dugout.

The Austin Air Healthmate was born out of necessity as President, Richard Taylor, undertook the task of improving what many doctors and specialists couldn't - his wife's quality of life.
Since his wife, Joyce, was a child, she had difficulty breathing. An endless round of doctors and specialists didn't make any difference; neither did medications or dietary changes. She suffered from this debilitating condition for years, until Richard realized the obvious. The air Joyce was breathing was contaminated.more »

TRAVERSE CITY, Mich. — A black bear and at least seven deer were shot, then mutilated, in what's being described as a significant poaching ring in northern Michigan.
Three young men are accused of using a spotlight and rifle to shoot the animals from a pickup this fall.
The bear was beheaded and its paws were cut off with an axe, according to the Michigan Department of Natural Resources. At least seven deer were "shined" with a spotlight for their antlers.
"It's a pretty brazen case," said Lt. David Shaw of the Michigan Department of Natural Resources. "They weren't shooting them for meat."
Three young men have been charged with numerous misdemeanors.
Authorities became aware of the crime when outdoorsmen reported finding several carcases.
Details for this story were provided by The Record-Eagle in Traverse City, Mich.

The Butler County Sheriff's mobile command center is being pressed into service to assist with Hurricane Sandy disaster-relief in New York - its third tour of duty out-of-state.
"It seems that there are not many command trailers left in (existence in) the U.S.," said Sheriff Rick Jones. He noted the command center was used as an operations base for emergency crews during flooding in New York about a year and a half ago. Its first out-of-state assignment was in 2005 after Hurricane Katrina devastated the Gulf Coast.

David Brooks mars an otherwise excellent column about the relation between rules of etiquette, personal dignity and the public good with a gratuitous dig at Sarah Palin and strange admiration for Obama.
Whatever policy differences people may have with him, we can all agree that he exemplifies reticence, dispassion and the other traits associated with dignity. The cultural effects of his presidency are not yet clear, but they may surpass his policy impact. He may revitalize the concept of dignity for a new generation and embody a new set of rules for self-mastery.
To me, Obama comes across as detached, unserious and full of self-regard. On several occasions, most conspicuously toward his …continue reading
It becomes an even bigger problem when people are driven away from the faith because they assume that good Catholics conform to traditional gender roles. Thus, the woman who decides to have a career, remain single without religious vocation, or marries but keeps her maiden name, feels at odds with Catholicism with no reason to be.
Additionally, I'm glad you mentioned tendencies. I've heard from women who have been through a disordered purity talk at some point in their lives. While the purity talk for men directly confronts our urges, the talk for women oftentimes consists of "You need to dress modestly so as not to make life hard for your brothers." This would be fine, I suppose, if the talk continued on to address a woman's urges, but it stops there. The assumption seems to be that, since men generally struggle more with lust, that lust is a man's problem and women don't need to worry about it. The generalization is not unfounded, as the sex industry is primarily catered to men for a reason. The problem is treating a generalization like a universal, and an even bigger problem is, as you said, treating a tendency as a moral imperative.

Ian, I couldn't agree more. I, too, am often irritated and dismayed by the way gender roles are discussed in Christian circles.
I got in a heated online exchaged recently over an article that extolled the male tendency to be domineering.
The author theorized that men need to be dominating, because they need to learn to dominate themselves, viz. their own fallen nature.
Women don't need to conquer our fallen nature. That comes naturally to us.
So, that was an instance of treating something common to all persons as if it's especially applicable to men, which is demeaning to women.
Then, the emphasis on roles very often neglects the individuality of persons, which always exceeds generalizations.
I think the problem becomes serious when we treat a general observation (e.g. "women are better at men than homemaking") as a moral prescripton: "Therefore no woman should work outside the home."

No, just about everyone knows we need relationships. I will be thinking about how to express what I'm trying to say more clearly as I take care of some urgent things around here, because I want to do this discussion more justice than I can right now. Bis bald!

I highly recommend Thomas Dubay's Authenticity as further reading for this post.
Aug. 29 at 10:40am | See in context
Do you think anyone really believes that?
Maybe I live in a bubble. But I know lots of people who think being Catholic (for instance) means "you have to stay in relationships" and that all concern for authenticity is a modernist cover for egocentrism, that annulments are nothing but ephemisms for divorce, and that if you're a mother it means that you "role" is to be a fulltime housewife, and so on and so forth.
I haven't met anyone who thinks we don't need relationships.
I know they're out there, but I don't come across them.
Aug. 29 at 10:30am | See in context
Kate, yes, I was always struck by Karol Wojtyla's distinction between humanl acts and "acts of man": acts that emerge from your free center, and things that you do but that are just physiological or instinctive or reactive--acts that are "automatic" in some way, and don't fully involve your freedom.
The feminist ideas that Maggie Gallagher was writing against did have a large grain of truth. As we've been talking about here lately from many angles, for a long time, there definitely are people and relationships and cultures and mentalities that you do have to separate yourself from to find out who you even are, and to initiate action that really comes from your own free center.
Where many people go wrong, it seems, is in seeing the core of each person as totally unrelated to relations with other subjects. It's as if they think: if it's a relationship, it's not a reality, but just something that's "in your head" or something that belongs to the realm of feelings, understood in the most superficial and reductive sense.
Aug. 29 at 10:19am | See in context
I like what you say here, Kate.
As someone who has had a lot to learn about personal authenticity, I have more sympathy (I think) than a lot of conservative Catholics—certainly more than I used to have myself—for the contemporary ways of talking about about the self.
I mean, I understand now in ways I didn't used to, for instance, that "me time" is something I need. I used to scorn the idea as selfish. "All of me and my time belongs to God and my husband and children." I didn't understand that this was a neglect of my own humanity.
I had to learn not to be driven by my "role" as wife and mother, and so on. I hadn't realized how alienated from myself I was, and how artificial many of my ideas of what I ought to do and be were.
I had to learn to "taken possession of the land" that is my self—take responsibility for my thoughts, feelings, acts, limits, etc.
Part of this entailed a discovery that some of my relationships weren't real.
I'm still learning.

Sometimes I think that the "who you are" in "become who you are" refers to our acting and being--which are inalienable, really. So it's not really that we can ever be not ourselves, but we are less than fully ourselves when we abdicate responsibility for our actions, when we re-act rather than act, when we choose by failing to choose.
Which mean, I guess, that I am as fully myself in relationship as I am in a role or function, so long as I am fully present to the choices and persons around me, and fully choose to act out of my own gifts, abilities, and call to virtue. If I use a social construct, relationship, function, or even a 'vocation' as a prop, a layer of insulation against the terrible call to own my own actions and respond rightly to the goods around me, then they can be obstacles to my full development as "who I am."
I remember when Jen Fulwiler wrote about realizing that the best 'me time' is the kind that reinvigorates--which tends to be active: creation, exercise, service, self-development. These are responses to the goods in ourselves, the world, and others.

Yikes! I would have done the same.

In the case of the apostolate I mentioned that I used to support financially, I twice sent emails expressing my concern. I got no answer. Then I noticed on facebook that many others shared my concern. The public outcry became strong enough that the head of the organization wrote about it. He didn't just defend his organization, he touted the Christian heroism of its members. He didn't just disagree with the critics, he chastized them for their lack of charity.
That's when I determined to disengage, which is to say (in this case), stop sending them money.

12oz bottle. Pours a burnt orange color with a half inch of head. Some lacing. The aroma is piney grapefruit with some malts. Not really aromatic. Taste is a nice tingly pine hop bite followed by some juicy grapefruit. Pretty noticeable malt presence. Very well balanced. Medium bodied with a tingly amount of carnonation. Oily mouthfeel. Not an in your face hop bomb but a good marriage of hops and malts. I think its been said before but this reminds me a bit of Racer 5. Overall, solid IPA for sure.

Appearance Light orange in color and hazy with a big, beautiful head that showed excellent retention and left tons of lacing alongside my Ruination glass. The frothing foam just oozed along the glass like The Blob chasing turtles over an ice rink.
Smell This one has a very balanced nose. The complex hops (predominantly floral, I think) are soft yet clearly steer this conga line. The malt base is just right and complimented with some light, grainy sugars. The lovely fruiting is here as well. I especially enjoyed the tangerine/grapefruit combination.
Taste Dont rate this one too quickly or youll miss it. In taking my time with this (it is my first rating of the night) and I find the balance to be almost seamless.
The citrus hops lead things off and, again, steer more than dominate. Theres a slight bitter pine note at the very end, like the final strike of a piano key at the end of a well-played symphony. In the middle are the time-keeping malty drums, ensuring that the flavors come out in the right sequence and the proper strength. The fruity chorus pleases the pallet, bringing purpose to the other flavors.
Mouthfeel Bells could have chosen to make this a bit heavier, but they opted for session over sensationalism. I like the heavy-hitters just as much as the next hophead, but the body here was right on target. Its medium at best with a very slight bittering at the end.
Drinkability Not only was this a pleasure to consume but, believe it or not, it was quite the educational experience. They took a very interesting angle in putting this one together and, like TheBum alluded to, it must have been like constructing the Eiffel Tower. Great job a true work of art!

Lots of big hops and juniper erupt in a pungent floral bouquet.
The taste is a bit ginny but lots fun and explosively hoppy for this sort of beer.
Its incredibly sharp.
The color is a light orange and hazey with a nice white head.
I used to consider this a very drinkable beer but now if I have more than one in a sitting, I get all crazy like and start freaking out and then after about an hour I get really, really hung over. Therefore, the Two Hearteds drinkability is shot with me.
On a more positive note, I find this beer quite as enjoyable in summer as I do in winter and vice versa.

Living in Michigan, I have access to Two Hearted almost everywhere, all the time. Which is f'n great news, because it is an excellent brew. The color is a deep amber, with some copper when the light hits it. A solid white head forms and leaves great lacing all the way down the glass. Hops up front and hops in the back with a very solid citrus and grapefruit profile that goes hand-in-hand with the its floral essence - much expected from an American IPA. The great thing about Two Hearted is that it's incredibly simple, but it's done extremely well. It doesn't have some over-the-top, drawn out, unnecessarily complex flavor profile because it doesn't need one. The bitterness from the hops is balanced nicely with the huge citrus/grapefruit flavors and light undertones of malt. Bitterness lasts the entire time without becoming too overpowering. The beer smells as simple as it tastes - like a nice field of hops and grapefruits; very perfume-like and fragrant from the start to the finish. With a medium body and a perfect amount of carbonation, this mouth is very nice, making this beer easy to drink.
Two Hearted is an extremely simple, yet masterfully executed IPA which is readily available and always delicious. I love this shit, plain and simple, and if you like America IPAs, you're gonna love it, too. If you can't get this stuff, let me know and I will send it out. Everyone deserves to have this.

I can't believe I've never reviewed this. It's go time. This is
Batch 10199 and the Batch Finder tells me that it was packaged on January 31, 2011. Yummy freshness to come.
Two Hearted pours a beautiful, see through, golden-amber-orange that just sparkles when held to light. Poured into a 23 oz. snifter, a one finger, eggshell white head forms. There are a fair amount of carbonation bubbles in the body and they move at medium pace. The lacing is phenomenal. Even when it is still quite cold and I haven't yet imbibed, beautiful spindly patterns blossom on the sides of the glass post-swirl.
The aroma brings pure hop goodness to my nose. Pine resin, cannabis, fresh, dewy grass, grapefruit, and earthy metals are derivative of the all-Centennial hop bath from whence Two Hearted is born. It is something else, this aroma. Deep inhales reveal just enough of a caramel and toasted malt balance to keep the runaway hop train from flying off the tracks. But, mostly, hops just assault my nose.
The taste reveals a much more appropriate balance of hops and malt; I mean, good Lord, my tongue would suffer from hop shock (ooh, that's a good name for a hoppy beer), wither, and fall out of my mouth if the taste was as hop-alicious (another one! Bam!) as the smell. That said, the bitter, resiny hops still rip at the sides of my palate as the sweet malt flavors blanket my tongue. So citrusy, so bitter, and so delicious is Two Hearted. I should note this: when I was not as much a beer geek as I am now, whenever I drank Two Hearted, it made me think of eating carrots. I'm not sure why, although I am guessing the earthiness of the hops made me taste earthy carrots. Actually, the last sip I took was quite carrot-y.
Two Hearted's mouthfeel is abusive and is really just what I seek from an American IPA. The hops just bombard my bitter receptors as the malt sweetness tries to coat my tongue and make me feel a little better. In the end, they don't and I couldn't be happier. This is a saliva-sucking IPA and makes my mouth feel quite hoppy in love (damn, breweries should be reading this for hop-named beer ideas).
Well, you can probably guess after this gushing review that I think Two Hearted is drinkable. And you're right. My only critique would be that T.H. that is this fresh would just wreck my palate and leave it in a sloppy mess after two or three of them. That's just the price one has to pay for fresh, hoppy beer, though. One of my all-time favorites and an IPA that I will be enjoying until I die.

A- A thick white head that will eventually leave thick lacing all the way down the glass sits atop a truly pale ale.
S- Floral hop nose wafts out of the glass resembling rose petals. I've compared it to laying in a wonderful flower garden, eyes closed, just breathing.
T- Flavors of candied orange citrus, a quiet pine note, and a beautifuly bitter finish that never overwhelms.
M- Carbonated, but not overdone. Sooo smooth.
D- I can and have drank this for hours on end.
This has to be one of the best single IPAs on the planet. Holy and consistant.

Poured out of a bottle at about 50 oF into a clear pint glass. Nice orange-honey color. 1" white head that doesn't go away, medium-thick lacing.
Big and wonderful aroma of pine & citrus -- lemon & grapefruit.
Lots of carbonation, slightly malty up front with a wonderful bitter hoppy finish.
I like this beer a lot, it's one of my favorite IPAs.

A: Frothy head on top of a hazy orange body,

S: Great clean hop nose with hints of sweet hop

T: Great hop bitterness paired with a sweet

flavor lingers but not in a undersireable way
M/D: Great carbonation with a sturdy body
neither syrupy nor thin. Fantastic with a
home made mozzarella and basil pizza.
An all around great beer. I drank this 1.23 gallon "party keg" of beer over five days and it never lost its carbonation. What a value when you can depend on the vessel to provide the proper carbonation. Great value!

Bell's Two Hearted Ale
Appearance is a funky orange fluid with a heavy carbonated head of one inch that slowly falls leaving plenty of lacing.
Smell is fresh cut hops that are also followed by a malty goodness. Alittle oil scent as well.
Taste is off balance. I taste metals, sulfer, hops and malt.. in that order... wierd. Try again... this time left alittle foam on my upper lip but still has the same taste with lingering after taste.
M-D- When it comes down to mouthfeel and drinkability i love all ipas and will forever. But for this one it leaves me wandering what went wrong.
M- Not the smoothest beer and leaves mouth feeling dry and unsatisfied.
D- Will have again not sure when.

A journalist's beheading was retaliation for U.S. airstrikes, a terrorist said.
(RNN) - A nonprofit organization of women's healthcare providers denounced abortion bills under consideration in Texas as a form of legislative overreach on the medical rights of women.
The American Congress of Obstetricians and Gynecologists stated in a news release Tuesday that Senate Bill 1 and House Bill 2 "are plainly intended to restrict the reproductive rights of women in Texas through a series of requirements that improperly regulate medical practice and interfere with the patient-physician relationship."
The ACOG is the nation's leading group of physicians providing healthcare for women.
"The Texas bills are a compilation of over-reaching measures to control when, where, and how a woman has an abortion," said ACOG Texas District Chair Lisa M. Hollier. "The bills are not based on sound science, despite our efforts to provide the Legislature with the best available medical knowledge. The bills would erode women's health by denying the women of Texas the benefits of well-researched, safe and proven protocols."
The Texas Medical Association and the Texas Hospital Associations also oppose the bills being debated in the Texas Legislature at the behest of Republican Gov. Rick Perry.
Perry called a second special session, which started Monday after the abortion bills failed to pass in the filibuster-stymied first special session.
"I am calling the Legislature back into session because too much important work remains undone for the people of Texas," Perry said in a statement, according to the Associated Press. "Texans value life and want to protect women and the unborn."
Abortion is one of the safest medical procedures, ACOG stated, with fewer than 0.5 percent of abortions involving major complications. This fact hasn't stopped legislatures in several states from passing or debating laws to add new restrictions to the procedure.
Targeted Regulations of Abortion Providers (TRAP) laws are in place in 27 states, but legal challenges have held up many of these measures.
Laws that single out abortion providers don't make "an already-safe procedure safer, but instead aim to make abortion care less accessible," according to the Guttmacher Institute, a nonprofit organization that works to advance reproductive health and abortion rights.
In addition to Texas, North Carolina is considering abortion restrictions. Members of the Senate GOP there attached abortion-related provisions to an unrelated bill Tuesday night. It passed in a 27-14 vote that same evening, according to WBTV in Charlotte, NC.
Opponents said the bill, which could close almost all abortion clinics in North Carolina, would severely limit the rights of women to obtain an abortion. There are 16 licensed abortion clinics in the state but only one ambulatory surgical center that performs the procedure, according to the Department of Health and Human Services.
Among its stipulations, the North Carolina bill would prohibit gender-selective abortions, restrict abortion insurance coverage and require a physician's presence during an entire surgical abortion and when a woman takes an abortion-inducing drug.
Other states have passed similar legislation.
Earlier this week, Ohio Gov. John Kasich signed a budget into law that included a number of abortion restrictions added at the last minute by Ohio Republicans.
North Dakota in March passed some of the most restrictive abortion measures in the nation, banning abortions after a fetal heartbeat is detected, banning the procedure in case of genetic abnormalities and requiring abortion providers to have admitting privileges in hospitals, according to American Medical News.
Opponents said the North Dakota restrictions would also end in vitro fertilization and the ability of physicians to treat serious conditions such as ectopic pregnancies, the American Medical News said.
"It's treating this type of procedure differently than other types of procedures," said Courtney Koebele, the North Dakota Medical Association executive director. "There are plenty of procedures that are done outside the hospital that could be considered surgery."
North Dakota's laws, scheduled to take effect Aug. 1, are also currently being challenged in court.
In a statement, North Dakota Gov. Jack Dalrymple said he anticipated the legal challenges, as the laws were designed as attempts "to discover the boundaries of Roe v. Wade."
The lawmakers expect legal challenges and provided funding to fight them. According to the Pew Charitable Trusts, lawmakers in North Dakota gave the state attorney general $400,000 to defend the abortion laws.

Stack on gun safe
Stack on gun safe: Mandatory for depositing your guns
Stack on gun safe is certainly one of the most important appliances any gun collector out there should have. If you are someone who loves guns a lot and you want to make sure that people who are not supposed to reach them will never do that, by getting a gun safe you will avoid this problem and possibly save the life of children who may unknowingly play with your guns and get hurt. You will not only manage to keep people safe, but you will also be able to keep all of your guns organized properly.
One of the recommended safety units you can consider for your gun collection is the stack on gun safe. It's a product that comes from a company dealing with manufacturing tool storage systems. However, I know that you are very curious to why you will have to consider this brand and disregard others. Well, let me tell you more about that.
Increased Theft Protection
When the company first started working on the project that would lead to these amazing safes, it wanted to build a safe that is first of all very secure. And that is how while brainstorming ideas they figured making it theft proof is the first step for achieving what they had planned. Now it all depends on the safe model you go with and you should know that some of them will allow you to keep your shotguns, handguns, rifles and ammunition properly organized.
Even though strangers who possess great locksmith tools and knowledge will want to open these doors, they will find it's practically impossible to do so. If your guns are very dear to you or you have some very expensive models, you can just choose to bolt the entire safe to the floor.
Resistant to Fire
You will be very happy to know that gun safe is manufactured with fire resistance in mind. This means that for over sixty minutes the safe can tolerate some pretty extreme temperatures without damaging the contents. In general you should know that these safes are made using metal which is then finished using silver coating. On top of that, special chemicals with added resistance and fireproof materials are incorporated in the manufacturing process of the safes so they can withstand very high temperatures.
Can Your Hobby Be Making You Money?

A great hobby for everyone would be fitness. You don't need to dread getting in shape. You can make it fun by tweaking it to what you enjoy doing, thus making it a hobby as opposed to some grueling chore. You can go on bike rides or you can play basketball with friends.

Frankly I've never seen such B Market Bozo tactics as employed by the NHL during this process.
It's way past time Bettman and the Board of Governors stopped posing and got real.
Since the NHL put forward its initial joke of a drop dead, take it or leave it because our next offer will be worse demanding players reduce their share of HRR from 57% to 43%, each succeeding NHL offer has been better, not worse. The NHL has made Don Fehr look great!
During a negotiation professionals ignore the bluff and bluster of PR and poser comments. You measure the other side by what they do, not what they say. By every measure the NHL Board of Governors has shown themselves to be nothing more than not ready for prime time B Market Bozos.
Every offer the NHL has made thus far has been better than the previous offer. And they wonder the players want Don Fehr in the room? They've taken to cancelling the schedule in two-week increments. What kind of wuss move is that? You announce a drop dead date and cancel the schedule up to that date.
The problem with Bettman and this Board of Governors is they have no cred. None. Zilch. Nada. They can't even draw a proverbial line in the sand, like a drop dead date, because every time they have, they've recanted. It's like a 3 Stooges joke.
Bill Daly, VP in charge of Stupid recently said of 5 year contracts, "It's the hill we die on." So Fehr immediately tests they're resolve with an 8 year counter offer. Why shouldn't he, it's a negotiation. And what does the NHL do? It quits, for the third time!!!
Kick Don Fehr out of the room because he's too tough and talented a negotiator for the NHL Board of Governors? Every owner ought to be looking himself in the mirror this morning and asking, "What does owning an NHL team do for my rep?" If they think hockey fans and corporate sponsors aren't asking themselves, "Who needs the NHL?" they're dreaming.
If there ever was a time for a rival league, it is now. We need professionals in charge of professional hockey.
