Sampled this one just because it looked cool and I hadn't had it yet.
A: This one looks like a slightly thicker porter or a slightly thin stout. Pours black/dark brown with a tan/brown head that deminishes down to a ring that produces slight lacing. Light fails to penetrate the murky depths.
S: I expected the coffee and chocolate tones in here. There is also a smokeiness right up front. Once it warmed up a little I started smelling a pine hops aroma.
T: Follows the smell. Coffee, chocolate, smoke, pine, and... something else in there. Very light in the background. Dark fruits?
M: Thicker than an average porter. Even with the "Imperial" higher alcohol content it's not harsh. There is a slight oil coating afterward.
D: I like it. Although the richness dictates only one per session.

One of the new big beers popping up around NC thanks to hoppedup for the sample.Poured a deep brown near black color with a mocha colored head.Impressive aromas of smoked malt and wood chips almost like more of a Scottish wee heavy,very nice well rounded flavors headed by the smoked peat and tree bark with a real noticable herbal minty element letting you know the hops are there.Goes down very smooth for how big and robust it is,why cant Flying Dog make more like this?

Ralph Steadman's bottle rockets and is a must have for any collector but will the beer inside prove to be more than just a gimcrack and worthy of the $9.50 a four-pack price? Let's see.
As it pours into a poboy's pint glass, my nose is instantly pounded by roasted, no burnt, chocolate malts. There's not much else going on so I let it warm a bit.
There it is: a hint of berries and some tobacco leaf. Still, the overwhelming portion of the aroma, upwards of 95%, is sweet, burnt chocolate malts.
The taste largely matches the nose only chocolatier but it is quickly overshadowed by the powerful mouthfeel.
This Gonzo rips your mouth wide open like an old Batman Comic fraught with: "POWS," "BLAMS," and "SLAPS."
It's so dry that it begins to resemble a Super Tuscan or some other big red in terms of mouthfeel. I'm not sure whether I love it or hate it but I'm sure impressed by it.
Very drinkable, dangerously drinkable even, every sip leaves my mouth thirsty for more. I'm drinking this way too fast.
All in all this beer lives up to the hype and the price, although not by much. Personally, I would like a little more for my cheddar.
Note: I'm currently drinking a bottle purchased on 9-26-05.
I thought that this was a one-off in honor of HST's death so I horded a ton of the first release. Today is 3-6-08. This beer is better than I remembered it. Lots of smoke, plenty of fruit, still well balanced, carbonated, with a great body. Overall, lots more smoke than I remember... Very nice. Oddly...this beer wasn't cellared. It has been in my fridge for over two and a half years...

A: Pours with a basically black color and quite a big head. Head retention and lacings are quite impressive considering the relatively high ABV in this one.
S: A round and nicely composed smell. Lots of malts with a prominent chocolate character. Notes of dark fruit and vanilla. A pleasant hop kick. The alcohol becomes noticeable as the beer warms up.
T: Lots of malty sweetness with just as much sweet dark chocolate. Big notes of vanilla. Some notes of dark fruits. Very restrained when in comes to roasted malts, which is the main thing setting this one apart from the imperial stouts. Quite a lot of spicy hops. The finish is quite bitter with gentle notes of soy sauce, wood and more somewhat spicy hops. As in the smell, the alcohol becomes more noticeable as the beer warms up. In general, it seems like the flavors get slightly rounder towards the end and the different components seem to get a better fit after a while.
M: Full-bodied, nice smooth mouthfeel and an almost semi-dry finish, but it still manages to leave a sticky feeling in the mouth after a while.
D: I like this beer, I just think it's tasty. However, I've had the opportunity to try the older version a few times, the one with a higher ABV, and it was way better. The older version where more potent, more living and daring, and it had much more character. It's a shame they turned it down a notch, doesn't seem to be in line with the Hunter S. Thompson way of life. Wonder what he would have thought about such rerouting of a bold departure.

A: nearly black, thick pour, with a slight reddish hue, very thin head that quickly dissipates which leaves minimal lacing.
S: like the faint coffee smell, certainly not overwhelming with hints of chocolate and not sour like a porter.
T: pleasant coffee/chocolate initiation fading into a faint sour porter trademark taste on the back end. very interesting combination.
MF/D: sizzle of carbonation that quickly recedes. definitely drinks more like a stout than a porter.

Pours from the bottle a viscous deep black color with a nice bubbly tan head that lingers atop the brew and leaves strings of sticky lacing as it falls. Wow..hardly any light is getting through this brew. Aromas of dark, toasty roasted malt with some cinammon, cocoa and vanilla. An underlying citric, piney hoppiness is fresh and vibrant..giving this porter a unique nose...pretty heavy on the hops.
First sip brings dark, roasted maltiness featuring chunks of bakers chocolate along with some mild roasted coffee beans. Slight powdered cinammon midway through along with hints of dark fruits and vanilla bean. The brew follows through with a heavy dose of pine needle citric hop oils and finishes slightly chalky on the palate. Quite the enjoyable brew.
Mouthfeel is full with big creamy maltiness. Nice and chewy with a slight dry chalkiness. This brew is amazingly drinkable. I didn't know it was 9.5% until I checked the listing again...alcohol is very well hidden. Sort of reminds me of Alpha Klaus personally...which is definetly not a bad thing. A fitting tribute to the late Hunter S. Thompson (RIP) and probably the best Flying Dog brew I've tried. Thanks to dwvarner77 for bringing a few of these back to IL for me.

Pitch black. Initially had a 1 finger dark chocolate head, that reduced down a only a single bubble thick layer. Not much else, no lacing.
Fairly complex aroma. Semisweet chocolate with toffee and some coffee flavors. Dark fruits come through and present an overall sweet aroma. A bit of alcohol as well, but not overwhelming and certianly doesn't detract from the aroma.
Taste is roasted coffee and dark chocolate. Again sweet dark fruits add a subtleness to the flavor. Definately some alcohol notes come through. The alcohol presents itself with a bit of a burn and its flavor really lingers. Overall a good flavor but this hurts the drinkability aspect of this beer in my opinion.
Mouthfeel is medium or so. Nothing outstanding, but fits the style well. As mentioned above the alcohol flavors hurt the drinkability a bit. Still a tasty beer though.

Thanks to a friend in Kentucky for mailing me this 12oz bottle, since there are none to be found in my area of Maryland.
The first thing I noticed about this thick, black beer is that it has the most beautiful, thick, creamy head on it. It dies down to a manageable height after a few moments. A lovely strong hop aroma greets you, and the taste! Oh my.
It seems there are about 5 different levels to this beer. There's the blast of hops, and the subtle roasty chocolate finish, and inbetween the two are all sorts of things going on that I cant even begin to identify.
The only reservation I have about imperial porters is their very noticeable alcohol scent & taste. But that's a personal opinion and not a reflection on any shortcomings of this beer.
The character illustration on the Gonza Imperial Porter bottle exclaims "Ok! Let's Party!!" And I agree. Pick of a 4-pack of this beer before they're gone.

Pours an oil slick black. Solid finger of head, not much retnention, lacing present.
Roasted malt, rum raisin
Roasted malt finish, some sweet and bitter, maybe hops.
Sits bitter, sweet ABV
Drinks well for 9.2. The bitter aspect is refrehing for Porters. Much sweeter than most. Ill drink some, but only so much.

12 oz bottle. Pours an opaque black with a smallish fine dark brown head that goes to a thin film and leaves some lacing. Looks pretty thick as it pours out.
The aroma is piney hops, some chocolate, coffee and anise. Smells a little off (alcohol / medicinal?).
The flavor is anise and some slightly sweet chocolate malts initially with a nice bitter hop bite at the finish. The alcohol is very well hidden. The mouthfeel is lighter than I expected. It's still medium bodied and light on carbonation.
Overall, a very fine imperial porter. Plus it's for a good cause...a big memorial fist!

A: Pours a deep brown with some small ruby highlights. Two fingers of tan head linger decently.
S: I get an earthy/grassy hop aroma along with a hint of alcohol and roast qualities.
T: Sweet taste upfront with a slight alcohol twang. Bitter and hoppy finish with a little roast barley character.
M: Full to medium full with a good level of carbonation.
D: Decent, I could have maybe two or three.
Overall, this was a good beer if you like stronger alcohol beers. The porter flavors get somewhat lost in the strength of it.

This beer is very dark with a creamy tan head. The smell is hints of chocolate and coffee not to big with some almost root beer aromas. This starts smooth and malty and it takes 3-5 seconds before the roasted barley taste appears. This beer is meant to be drank slowly so it can warm up. It becomes more complex and more flavors appear as it warms up.

I'm not a big Flying Dog fan at all, but when I saw they had released an Imperial Porter named after Hunter S. Thompson, I had to pick it up. Besides, I love me a good porter. Looks like I was pouring out my 5,000 mile used motor oil from the bottle. Topped off with a beautiful, creamy, light brown head that sticks to the glass and I was excited!
Smells of dark malts, bitter chocolate, coffee...reminds me of Old Rasputin Imperial Stout. Taste is more of the same yumminess. Dark, roasted roasty malts, bitter chocolate, french roast coffee, finishing off dry and a bit hoppy but nothing overwhelming. Slight alcohol warming going on as well and would be expected from a 9.2% brewha.
This is a HUGE porter, to say the least. And the first Flying Dog beer to impress me. Thoroughly impress me actually. I will be picking up more of this while it's still on the shelf.

Hopkins-Calzaghe official? (In Vegas April 12?), 1 Topic Merged Here

Hopkins-Calzaghe in Vegas on April 12th?
"I believe the date the 11th or the 12th of April. I know I'm just looking to make it happen. I don't believe anything is signed yet. I got a letter from Arnold Joseph and Richard Schaeffer saying that we have an oral agreement. I could say oral agreements have stood up for the last five years of my career. They expressed to me that we have a deal and I'm expecting an official confirmation on that no later than Monday. I was hoping to hear something yesterday or today, but I'm expecting things to be wrapped up the middle of next week the latest," stated light heavyweight king Bernard Hopkins in a recent interview.
Hopkins revealed that the fight would likely take place in Las Vegas at the Mandalay Bay or the MGM Grand and he hopes that HBO will be willing to do another 24/7 series for the fight. "I think maybe with a 24/7 if everybody is willing to pitch in, that's HBO, Golden Boy and Frank Warren, if they're willing to pitch in because that ain't free, but I think it would do everybody justice, not only in our bank accounts, but I think the fans will get to see the behind the scenes back and forth that goes on with the game. Again, this ain't a salespitch to convince anybody, I'm just saying that this is one of them kind of fights where I think 24/7 is needed to uplift what's already there. Coming off the heels of the big blockbuster that happened on December 8 one month later, I think it would be great."
Hopkins also revealed that he's been training lightly for the past two or three months, but he's planning on beginning serious training for the fight in about two or three weeks. Along with Brother Nasseem and Freddie Roach, Hopkins is considering reuniting with Mackie Shillstone. "I didn't use him for the Winky Wright for one reason or the other, but for this fight I see that his biggest weapon is punches in bunches and trust me, from what I've experienced with the Tarver fight with Mackie Shilstone, he got me to the point where I was throwing so many punches per round that it was unbelievable."
When asked whether or not Calzaghe would be one of the toughest southpaws he's ever faced, Hopkins emphatically stated, "Oh, No. No. No. Absolutely not. The best southpaw I ever fought in terms of being tricky is John David Jackson." In fact, Hopkins went so far as to say that Calzaghe was at the bottom of the list of southpaws he's faced, behind the likes of Robert Allen, Antonio Tarver and Winky Wright.

Tarver didn't even want a piece of Danny Green. I think the comparison of Green and Kessler can be made. I think that kind of gives you a good indication on the story.
Yeah. Both natural 168 lbers that haven't faced the kind of opposition that Tarver, a southpaw that could easily fight at north of 190, has.

ActiveX Controls
A type of web browser plug-in that allows users to view and use interactive content on a website. ActiveX Controls are dedicated for use with Microsoft's web browser, Internet Explorer.
ActiveX Controls are generally used to enhance the user's online browsing experience. They may however pose a threat if:
- They (deliberately or unintentionally) cause harm to the user's machine or data AND
- The security settings on the user's web browser's security settings allow them to be automatically and silently installed OR
- The user installs the plug-in without fully understanding the threat it may pose
As ActiveX Controls are able to access the hard disk and have a significant amount of control over system operations, malicious ActiveX Controls can be a significant security risk if they are successfully implanted on the computer.
Generally, maintaining high security settings on the web browser and exercising due caution when browsing websites is sufficient to prevent unwanted or undesirable ActiveX Controls from accessing the computer. Certain webpages may require the user to download and install customized, third-party ActiveX Controls from the website itself in order to view them correctly.
Adware is F-Secure's classification name for software that displays advertisements on the computer or device. The advertisements may be displayed on the desktop or during a web browsing session.
Adware is often bundled with free software that provides some functionality to the user. Revenue from the advertising is used to offset the cost of developing the software, which is therefore known as 'ad-supported'.
Administrative rights
Most users on a computer system will log into a restricted 'user account', which only allows them to makes setting changes to the computer that would affect their own account. Changes made to one user account may not affect settings in another account.
For system administration purposes, most computer operating systems have a special, restricted account for making critical changes that may affect all accounts on the machine. Depending on the operating system, this account may be known as root, administrator, admin or similar. A user with access to this account is said to have administrative rights, or essentially total control of the computer system.
An alias is the name given by other antivirus vendor(s) for the same unique malware file or family. The differences in names for a given file or family is due to differences in naming procedures used by various antivirus vendors. In describing a malicious file or family, aliases are usually provided to indicate that the varying names identify the same malware.
For example, the worm identified by F-Secure as 'Downadup' also has the aliases 'Conficker' or 'Kido', depending on the antivirus vendor in question.
Alternate Data Stream
An extension to Microsoft's Windows NT File System (NTFS) that provides compatibility with files created using Apple's Hierarchical File System (HFS).
Applications must write special code if they want to access and manipulate data stored in an alternate stream. Some applications use these streams to evade detection.
A program that scans the computer system for spyware programs. Most anti-spyware programs include disinfection/removal functionality in order to uninstall any spyware found on the system.
An anti-spyware program may be a standalone application, though nowadays many anti-virus programs also include anti-spyware functionality.
A program that scans for and identifies malicious files on a computer system.
An antivirus program's core is the scanning engine, the module responsible for scanning every file on the computer system to find supicious or malicious files.
The scanning engine works in tandem with the program's antivirus database, a collection of virus signatures that identify known malicious files. During the scanning process, the scanning engine compares to each scanned file to those in its database. If a match is found between a virus signature and a scanned file, the file is considered malicious.
Antivirus Database
A collection of virus detections or signatures used by an antivirus program during its scanning process to identify malware.
When scanning a computer for malicious programs, an antivirus program compares each file inspected against the virus signatures in its database; if a match is found, this indicates that the file is shares enough similarities with a known malware to be flagged.
Because this type of analysis depends on the antivirus program having an accurate signature with which to perform a comparison, it is known as signature-based detection.
As new malware is constantly being created, new virus signatures must continually be added to antivirus databases to identify these new threats. An antivirus program is therefore most effective if its antivirus database contains the latest updates.
Application Programming Interface (API)
An Application Programming Interface (API) is a defined set of instructions, specifications or protocols used to transfer commands or requests between applications.
There are many APIs available, and their use is usually dependant on the programming language or software(s) involved.
A classification term used by F-Secure to indicate the potential severity of threat a program may pose to the user's computer system and/or confidential information.

Humphry Repton (1752–1818).
Photography: Graham Haber, 2010.
Repton presented his advice to his clients in the form of Red Books, a term referring to their characteristic red morocco bindings. A typical Red Book would begin with a ground plan summarizing his proposals. An introductory epistle would address the client in suitably deferential terms and recapitulate the terms of the commission. Then would follow a description of the client's property, commending its scenic attractions, noting its defects, and suggesting how improvements could be made. The approach to the house, the park, the pleasure ground, and other important features would be discussed in separate sections accompanied by watercolor illustrations. Some of the watercolors would be equipped with overlays allowing an easy back-and-forth comparison of the property in its present state with Repton's recommendations for its future embellishment. In a mellifluous conclusion, Repton would urge the client to follow his advice, which, he implied, would not only enhance the enjoyment of the estate but also display it in a manner befitting the owner's good taste, family pride, and social status.
Repton regarded his Red Books as working plans, advertisements, souvenirs, and a convenient source of documentation he could use in his publications. His Red Book of the Welbeck estate provided the "groundwork" of his Sketches and Hints on Landscape Gardening, which contains extracts from fifty-six other Red Books duly cited at the front of the volume. He claimed to have made more than four hundred of them by the time he had reached the end of his career. More than a hundred survive, an indication of their importance to his clients and their value to scholars and collectors.
Humphry Repton. Red Book of Ferney Hall. Album, 1789. Collection of Mrs. J. P. Morgan, Jr., Gift of Junius S. Morgan and Henry S. Morgan; 1954.17
Repton prepared this Red Book for Samuel Phipps of Lincoln's Inn, a prosperous attorney, who had purchased the Ferney Hall estate around 1787. Called to the bar in 1763, Phipps amassed a fortune in the service of "grand families," nabobs, and political luminaries, such as the third duke of Portland (one of Repton's first and most important patrons). He also owned the estate of Barmoor Castle in Northumberland. After taking possession of Ferney Hall, he hired a local landscaper to lay out the grounds, but, dissatisfied with the results or dissuaded by his friends, he invited Repton to inspect his property over the course of three days in September 1789.
This commission came just at the beginning of Repton's career, when he was still developing the format of his Red Books. In this one, he did his best to impress his client with his practical expertise, Picturesque sensibilities, and cultivated taste. Unlike the local nurseryman, Repton could deal with Phipps as an equal, if not in social status then as an educated gentleman, fully capable of describing the delights of a rocky ravine by quoting Spenser and Ovid. Phipps appears to have been pleased by Repton's advice, but he died in 1791, before he could act on it.
Phipps was not the only one to take a personal interest in this Red Book, which became "Exhibit A" in the Picturesque debate. Not far from Ferney Hall resided Richard Payne Knight, a member of Parliament, collector of antiquities, and author of several books on art and aesthetics. Knight had designed his own landscape garden in accordance with Picturesque principles. In due deference, Repton consulted with this distinguished neighbor, who initially "dreaded the approach of a professed improver" but discovered that Repton was "a man of liberal education" and that they agreed in many matters of style. No doubt Knight approved of the plan to demolish the formal terrace and restore the original view of pastoral scenery outside the windows of the front rooms. He might have liked the idea of pruning the trees outside the drawing room window to give a glimpse of a distant pool. He claimed to have had "pleasing expectations" about Repton's work—but the plans he saw "instantly undeceived me."
Did Phipps show the Red Book to Knight? If so, it failed to please this arbiter of taste, who could have been a valuable ally but turned out to be a formidable opponent. He apparently took exception to certain economizing measures and attempts to preserve a few of the formal amenities in the grounds, which Repton wanted to give an "appearance of dress." The proposal to ornament the Common with clumps of trees might have smacked of "Brownism" in Knight's opinion. In 1794 he launched the first salvo of the Picturesque controversy with the publication of The Landscape: A Didactic Poem, a satiric attack on the garden designs of Brown and Repton. Caught off guard, Repton had been expecting to publish his Sketches and Hints on Landscape Gardening in 1794, but he held it back until the following year so that he could include supplementary remarks responding to his critics. Knight fired back with a second edition of The Landscape, containing a critique of the plans for Ferney Hall, now condemned in every respect except for a proposal to preserve a venerable orchard, "which would have pleased a landscape painter." More's the pity, said Knight, since this was the only proposal to have been rejected by his neighbor, a knowledgeable and cultivated person but utterly in thrall to conventional ideas of garden design. Knight could not have described the plans and Phipps's reaction to them in such convincing detail unless he had seen the Red Book, a provocative document, which all too eloquently outlined the grounds for debate.
Situated in Shropshire, five miles from Ludlow, the Ferney Hall estate at one point extended over eight hundred acres. Now the property has dwindled to ten acres consisting of some lawns, a pool, an orchard, a walled garden, and a woodland walk. Repton would not have approved of the present red brick Victorian mansion, largely restored but at such a cost that it was put up for sale in June 2009.

Trade card of Humphry Repton (1788), designed by Repton and engraved by Thomas Medland, from the Red Book of Ferney Hall. Album, 1789. Collection of Mrs. J. P. Morgan, Jr.; 1954.17 Born in affluent circumstances, Repton was trained for a commercial career, but he failed in business and retired to a small farm, which proved to be equally unprofitable. He tried his hand at other occupations with no greater success until 1788, when he decided to make his living as a professional landscape designer. An accomplished writer and amateur artist, he had all the necessary skills to express his ideas in illustrated books, such as the manuscript Red Books and his published works, which he used to promote his theories and advertise his services. He inserted this trade card in many of his Red Books and used it to solicit business from potential customers. Through his social connections, he received prestigious commissions from the landed nobility of England, who treated him more like a houseguest than a tradesman. The Prince of Wales invited him to work on the Brighton Pavilion, which he proposed to redesign in an Indian style inspired by the illustrations in Thomas and William Daniell's Oriental Scenery (1795–1807).
Thomas Daniell (1749–1840), Hindoo Temples at Bindrabund on the River Jumna, illustration in Oriental Scenery. London, 1795–1807 (PML 75754–64) Deep in debt, the prince could not pay him to carry out his plans, but Repton published them nonetheless in a splendid portfolio, Designs for the Pavillon at Brighton (1808).
Repton's fame grew to the point where he became a target for satire and a subject of controversy. His affectations and ingratiating manners gained him the reputation of a "coxcomb." He appeared as the fatuous Marmaduke Milestone in Thomas Love Peacock's comic novel Headlong Hall. Jane Austen took a swipe at Reptonian improvements in Mansfield Park, although actually she was not mocking him so much as his disciples' craven admiration of fashionable novelties. He stoutly defended himself against the attacks of gentlemen amateurs who condemned his businesslike approach to landscape design and advocated instead a style based more closely on the principles of the Picturesque.
The Brighton project marked the peak of Repton's career. In his later years, he obtained fewer commissions from his usual clientele—wealthy landowners, who had to cope with political disputes, social stress, and economic turmoil during the Napoleonic Wars. Health problems and injuries sustained in a carriage accident confined Repton to a wheelchair and made it increasingly difficult for him to survey an estate. An invalid, he retired from active life to tend a modest garden by his cottage, where he died in 1818.
William Gilpin (1724–1804), River-Views, Bays, and Sea Coasts. Album, pen and brown ink, brown and gray-brown wash, over preliminary indications in graphite, on paper washed with ochre, 1781. Purchased as the gift of Mrs. Enid A. Haupt; 1978.39. Repton owed some of his landscaping ideas and the rudiments of his watercolor technique to William Gilpin (1724–1804), author of illustrated travel books extolling the beauties of Picturesque scenery. Gilpin's writings and his innovative aquatint illustrations helped to popularize the Picturesque, an aesthetic based on the fashionable landscape paintings of the day. An Arcadian pastorale by Claude Lorrain or a wilderness scene by Salvator Rosa could provide a frame of reference for viewing nature and a worthy model for garden design. In his own work, Repton sought to achieve a painterly composition of lawn, lake, and trees, but he was also looking after the "comfort and convenience" of his clients. This pragmatic approach harkens back to his illustrious predecessor Lancelot "Capability" Brown (1716–1783), famous for the parks and pleasure grounds he had designed at Stowe, Blenheim, and other grand estates.
Brown's reputation came under attack, however, by proponents of the Picturesque who thought that his style was dull and monotonous in comparison to the enchanting and dramatic landscapes they had learned to appreciate in paintings. They preferred gardens with rustic charm and naturalistic features like brushy woodlands rather than clumps of trees in a placid expanse of lawn. Unfairly, perhaps, they accused Repton of the same stultifying uniformity while also implying that he was so caught up in the routine of his profession that he could not discern the true beauties of the English countryside. They believed that it was better to do it yourself: Instead of hiring outside experts to "torture their estates," country gentlemen should decide on their own how to bring out the best in their parks and pleasure grounds in accordance with the principles of art and the guidance of nature.
Repton responded to their criticisms with his magnificently illustrated Sketches and Hints on Landscape Gardening (1795), along with other publications. The battle lines were drawn, others joined the fray, and some went so far as to question the patriotism of their adversaries. Gracious as always, Repton defended his position during this debate more in sorrow than in anger. He insisted that a garden should be fit for human habitation, a fundamental principle not to be sacrificed to Picturesque effects, although he would be glad to use them in the proper places. Here, for example, is one of his more Picturesque designs rendered in a style similar to the monochrome oval watercolors of Gilpin—as if he were paying tribute to the master.

ANAHEIM -- The Blue Jays entered play on Saturday having won four consecutive games and six of their past seven, but most of that success has come without a lot of production from their No. 3 and No. 4 hitters.Jose Bautista and Adam Lind are still looking for a prolonged period of production at the plate as each player entered Game 3 of a four-game series hitting under .200 for the year. Both players are experiencing some frustration during the early stages of the year but seem to be struggling in different ways. At times, Bautista has been overly aggressive, while the club feels Lind has been a little too patient. "At the beginning of the year, I wasn't really swinging the bat the way I'm capable," said Lind, who entered play Saturday hitting .195 with one home run and seven RBIs. "I mean, I was having good at-bats, seeing pitches, being a bit passive I think, but I had a talk with the staff and they said we don't care about walks anymore, go up there and swing hard." Lind spent a large portion of last season being too aggressive at the plate. Blue Jays manager John Farrell felt Lind would get himself out on occasion by chasing pitches out of the strike zone. The 28-year-old Lind has rectified that problem a little bit this season but might have overcompensated as the club feels some hittable pitches are going by as the first baseman attempts to get into deep counts. "We want him to make an impact with the bat," Farrell said. "That's going to come through driving the baseball and that's going to come by being aggressive, particularly when he gets into leverage counts or advantage counts. That doesn't mean to expand the zone, that means look at an area and turn the bat loose. "We want guys to go in, hit first, slam on the brakes if a pitch is outside the zone, and I think he has been a little bit in between a little bit of the times." The opposite problem has been happening to Bautista, who has expanded the strike zone. Bautista is normally the most patient hitter in Toronto's lineup but has gone through long periods of time this season not getting a pitch to his liking. "I'm trying to have good at-bats," Bautista said after hitting his fifth home run of the season on Friday night. "It's just that I'm not seeing many pitches over the heart of the plate. I'm seeing strikes, but they're just really good pitchers' pitches in the corners, and it's hard to take advantage when that's happening."
Blue Jays rotation emerging as strength
ANAHEIM -- The Blue Jays opened the year with a lot of uncertainty in their starting rotation, but as the season reached its one-month mark on Saturday it has emerged as an early strength.Toronto began the season with No. 5 starter Dustin McGowan on the disabled list and with presumed No. 3 Brett Cecil in the Minor Leagues. That created an opening for Kyle Drabek and rookie Drew Hutchison, and the group as a whole has exceeded expectations. Blue Jays starters entered play on Saturday ranked second in the American League in both ERA (3.30) and innings pitched (168 1/3). It has been a surprise to most people but not necessarily manager John Farrell. "We spoke in Spring Training and talked about the potential. The talent was clearly there, and [we had] guys we felt confident in, even though they were untested," Farrell said. "At the time we were hopeful that through those challenges [in 2011] they learned some things about themselves along the way. And through the first 27 games, the starting rotation has not only been consistent, but you could point to it as being one of the strengths of this team so far." In the first two games against the Angels, Toronto received shutouts from both Brandon Morrow and Henderson Alvarez. It marked the first time that the Blue Jays had experienced that type of success in back-to-back games since 1993, when Jack Morris and Al Leiter accomplished the feat for a team that eventually went on to win the World Series. Both starters managed to go the distance in efficient fashion as Morrow required just 102 pitches and Alvarez only 97. The key to the overall success has been an ability to consistently throw strikes early in the count, which helped take advantage of an Angels team that isn't exactly known for its patience at the plate. "It's rare to be on the road and throw back-to-back shutouts, but you can't take anything away from what those guys have done," Farrell said. "Those weren't because of some fluke things that didn't go their way. We played some very good defense behind both Brandon and Henderson, but they pitched exceptionally well. "They threw a lot of first-pitch strikes, they were down in the strike zone for the most part, extremely efficient. Against an aggressive swinging club and they forced the hand, they threw strikes early in the count and by doing that they were able to get through nine innings efficiently."
Davis returns to lineup
ANAHEIM -- Rajai Davis made his return to the Blue Jays lineup on Saturday night after suffering a left hip flexor injury earlier in the week.Davis had been out since being removed in the fourth inning of Wednesday's game. He was cleared to play Friday night but was given an extra day. "He has bounced back from the slight strain that he felt the other night," Blue Jays manager John Farrell said. Davis is currently the Blue Jays' fourth outfielder but has managed to get into 19 games this season because of his overall versatility. The native of Connecticut has been used as a pinch-runner or late-inning replacement but also frequently starts against left-handed pitching. That was the case on Saturday night with Angels southpaw C.J. Wilson on the mound. Davis is a career .288 hitter against lefties, and that track record seems to have given him most of the playing time off the bench over fellow reserve outfielder Ben Francisco. "I think Rajai is a very good defender, and you look at his career numbers vs. left-handers and it's been solid," Farrell said. "When you have five outfielders, there's probably a skill set that might matchup better in certain situations. "I don't want to say it's redundant, because I think Ben is a very good pinch-hitter and can sit and come off the bench and DH after four, five days down and produce a low-maintenance type of swing. He's done just that for us." Davis is hitting .207 (6-for-29) with three extra-base hits and three stolen bases this season. He is a career .272 hitter with 13 home runs and 161 RBIs.
Worth mentioning
Left fielder Travis Snider was expected to return to the lineup in Triple-A Las Vegas on Saturday night after missing a week because of a wrist injury. Snider was scheduled to go through batting practice prior to the game, and if all went well he was set to be activated off the seven-day disabled list. Blue Jays manager John Farrell said that veteran infielder Omar Vizquel might receive his first start of the season at shortstop on Sunday's series finale in Anaheim. Vizquel has appeared in just five games this season.

Khak Gallery Kambiz Sabri April May 2012 A House On The Other Side Of The Night 03
The World > Asia > Middle East > Iran > Tehran
Kambiz Sabri was born on April 18, 1967 in Kashan and grew up in Shahroud.
He became familiar with the arts during his childhood at the "Institute for the Intellectual Development of Children and Young Adults",
where he learned painting.
However, the years of his youth however did not prove prosperous ones for the arts in general in the country.
The unique and diverse nature surrounding Shahrood became a source of much inspiration for Kambiz in the arts during these years and the individual who proved most influential during this period was his sports instructor, Mr. Hossein Karimi.
Kambiz was highly interested in medicine, but did not succeed in getting accepted for medical sciences. Moving to Tehran, he subsequently decided not to continue his further education.
After a while he became acquainted with Abdolhossein Pazouki, a university professor in architecture, who encouraged Kambiz to work in architectural firms.
During this period, Kambiz became once again aware of his own artistic talents and was encouraged to participate in the entrance exams for the arts, resulting in acceptance with top ranking into the Department of Sculpture at the Faculty of Fine Arts of the University of Tehran.
In addition to classes on his own subject, he attended classes in architecture, graphics and industrial design. Coinciding with his graduation in 2001, his entry into the Third Sculpture Biennial of Iran was awarded the special jury prize as the top entry and was consequently purchased for the main archive of the Tehran Museum of Contemporary Arts.
He has continued his career as a sculptor since 2001 and has participated in various art exhibitions.
His professional career includes teaching in art faculties, designing award statuettes for various festivals, interior design and design and management of art exhibitions, including acting as the coordinator for the Iran pavilion in the 51st Venice Biennial.
During the years 2004 to 2006 Kambiz completed a master's degree in graphics. At present he continues his artistic activities full-time, accompanied with his wife who is also a sculptor.

Overview and History
Tehran is the capital of Iran and the largest city in the Middle East, with a population of fifteen million people living under the peaks of the Alborz mountain range.
Although archaeological evidence places human activity around Tehran back into the years 6000BC, the city was not mentioned in any writings until much later, in the thirteenth century. It's a relatively new city by Iranian standards.
But Tehran was a well-known village in the ninth century. It grew rapidly when its neighboring city, Rhages, was destroyed by Mongolian raiders. Many people fled to Tehran.
In the seventeenth century Tehran became home to the rulers of the Safavid Dynasty. This is the period when the wall around the city was first constructed. Tehran became the capital of Iran in 1795 and amazingly fast growth followed over the next two hundred years.
The recent history of Tehran saw construction of apartment complexes and wide avenues in place of the old Persian gardens, to the detriment of the city's cultural history.
The city at present is laid out in two general parts. Northern Tehran is more cosmopolitan and expensive, southern Tehran is cheaper and gets the name "downtown."
Getting There
Mehrabad airport is the original one which is currently in the process of being replaced by Imam Khomeini International Airport. The new one is farther away from the city but it now receives all the international traffic, so allow an extra hour to get there or back.
Tehran driving can be a wild free-for-all like some South American cities, so get ready for shared taxis, confusing bus routes and a brand new shiny metro system to make it all better. To be fair, there is a great highway system here.
The metro has four lines, tickets cost 2000IR, and they have segregated cars. The women-only carriages are the last two at the end, FYI.
Taxis come in two flavors, shared and private. Private taxis are more expensive but easier to manage for the visiting traveler. Tehran has a mean rush hour starting at seven AM and lasting until 8PM in its evening version. Solution? Motorcycle taxis! They cut through the traffic and any spare nerves you might have left.
People and Culture
More than sixty percent of Tehranis were born outside of the city, making it as ethnically and linguistically diverse as the country itself. Tehran is the most secular and liberal city in Iran and as such it attracts students from all over the country.
Things to do, Recommendations
Take the metro to the Tehran Bazaar at the stop "Panzda Gordad". There you can find anything and everything -- shoes, clothes, food, gold, machines and more. Just for the sight of it alone you should take a trip there.
If you like being outside, go to Darband and drink tea in a traditional setting. Tehranis love a good picnic and there are plenty of parks to enjoy. Try Mellat park on a friday (fridays are public holidays), or maybe Park Daneshjou, Saaii or Jamshidieh.
Remember to go upstairs and have a look around, always always always! The Azadi Tower should fit the bill; it was constructed to commemorate the 2500th anniversary of the Persian Empire.
Tehran is also full of museums such as:
the Contemporary Art Museum
the Abghine Musuem (glass works)
the 19th century Golestan Royal Palace museum
the museum of carpets (!!!)
Reza Abbasi Museum of extraordinary miniatures
and most stunning of all,
the Crown Jewels Museum which holds the largest pink diamond in the world and many other jaw-dropping jewels.

The measure would make English the official language of the state of Oklahoma.
The ballot title that Oklahoma voters will see on the ballot reads:
This measure amends the State Constitution. It adds a new Article to the Constitution. That Article deals with the State's official actions. It dictates the language to be used in taking official State action. It requires that official State actions be in English. Native American languages could also be used.
When Federal law requires, other languages could also be used.
These language requirements apply to the State's "official actions." The term "official actions" is not defined. The legislature could pass laws determining the application of the language requirements. The Legislature would also pass laws implementing and enforcing the language requirements.
No lawsuit based on State law could be brought on the basis of a State agency's failure to use a language other than English. Nor could such a lawsuit be brought against political subdivisions of the State.
How will you vote on November 2nd?

1. Give yourself plenty of time. You don't
want to have to rush through your photos because you are running late
for the big dance. Make sure you start to prep several hours ahead of
time to ensure you will have ample time to take great shots.
2. While you're prepping, make sure to
skip any foundation that contains SPF. The titanium dioxide found in
SPF will actually reflect light away from your face--making you
appear very washed out in photos. Eek!
3. When Mom and Dad (and Grandma and your
neighbors and everyone else on your block) are snapping pics at the
house, be sure to carefully pick out your background. Try taking
photos in a lush garden or someplace with lots of flowers or
4. Be sure you're in a place where there
is a good deal of bright light. Natural light will make the colors of
your dress appear most true in your photos.
5. Maintain good posture: Lengthen your
neck, pull your shoulders back and tuck in your tummy just a bit.
Spend a bit of time practicing in the mirror before the big day.
6. We're big fans of standing at an
angle to the camera, which makes your body appear more slender. Just
don't hide your entire dress! Make sure the photographer can still
see both hips.
7. Get together with different groups of
friends. You are going to want pictures of yourself with the people
you spent your fabulous prom night with.
8. Nix the awkwardness and don't be
afraid to get close to your cutie. You and your date will be dancing
the night away and having a great time. Try to look like you like
each other in the photos (even if you're just friends!).
9. Smile! This is a happy day and you are
going to have a great time. Relax, and let your smile be genuine and
heartfelt. You don't want to look back at the pictures years later
and wonder why your grin looked so forced.
