Magowan confirms meeting with Selig
Giants owner discussed Mitchell Report with Commissioner
SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. -- Giants owner Peter Magowan confirmed Friday that he has met with Commissioner Bud Selig about the Mitchell Report testimony involving the ballclub and Barry Bonds' suspected steroid use, but divulged no details about their talk."I don't want to say when, where, how long, who was there, what was discussed," Magowan said as he began a visit to the Giants' Spring Training base. Magowan also said that general manager Brian Sabean met with representatives from Selig's office. "We had a chance to opine on a number of matters of interest, and we did," Magowan said. "And that's about all that I can say." Mitchell's probe into baseball's performance-enhancing drug controversy included testimony from Magowan and Sabean about their suspicions regarding Bonds' possible steroid use. The Giants never took any steps to discipline Bonds, and Selig told Congress after the report's release that he wanted to question Magowan and Sabean, prompting speculation that the club executives or the organization would be punished. Asked Friday whether he's awaiting any action from Selig, Magowan revealed little. "I'm not going to say. I don't know what action, if any action, will be taken. That's up to the Commissioner," he said. When the Mitchell Report was released on Dec. 13, Magowan issued a statement saying, in part, that the Giants "accept our fair share of responsibility" for baseball's performance-enhancing drug controversy. But, with Roger Clemens now dominating the fuss surrounding alleged steroid use, Magowan resisted the temptation to say "I told you so" when asked about his prior defense of Bonds, the all-time home run king who manned left field for the Giants from 1993-2007. "I've said what I said in the past -- I think that there was an effort to single Barry out that was unfair," Magowan said. "But that's about as far as I want to go." Magowan stopped short of promising that Bonds, whom the Giants declined to re-sign after last season and remains without a team, will be honored during some sort of ceremony at AT&T Park. "This isn't the time to answer to those questions," Magowan said. "It's too close to too much stuff, both good and bad." However, Magowan pointedly paid his own tribute to Bonds' accomplishments as a Giant.
"I think that Barry meant an awful lot to this franchise for the last 15 years," he said. "He was one of a kind. Everybody's got their own opinions about Barry, but he enthused our fans, he helped make us win and at the end of the day, we have to respect those achievements. When I say these things, people say, 'You're just an apologist for Barry Bonds; you don't understand all the other stuff.' I think I'm close enough to our fans and the Giants and the game of baseball to know as much as anybody about all the other stuff, too. I think it all has to be weighed. The contributions he made to this organization were great contributions. And I, for one, am appreciative."Magowan also expressed optimism about the Giants' on-field chances, despite their 71-91 finish in 2007 and the scarcity of offseason personnel moves. "I thought that we were going to be able to get more done in the offseason than we were able to do," Magowan said. "I thought people wouldn't be so interested in signing free agents and be more interested in making trades. I felt we did have surplus in some areas where we could make trades to help us. But it may be for the best. Some of the best trades are the ones you don't make, and we've got a lot of confidence in these players."

Bronchoscopy is the visual examination of the air passages leading into the lungs. The exam is done with a bronchoscope, a long, thin tube with a camera on the tip.
Reasons for Procedure
Bronchoscopy is most often done for the following reasons:
- Diagnose a lung disease or infection
- Examine obstructions and secretions
- Obtain a tissue sample, called a biopsy
- Obtain a secretion sample
- Investigate the source of a persistent cough or blood that is being coughed up
- Check for a foreign object that may have accidentally been inhaled rather than swallowed
Possible Complications
Problems from the procedure are rare, but all procedures have some risk. Your doctor will review potential problems, like:
- Reaction to anesthesia
- Bleeding
- Collapsed lung
- Irregular heart rate
- Infection
- Sore and swollen throat
Smoking increases the risk of complications.
What to Expect
Prior to Procedure
Your doctor may do some or all of the following:
Talk to your doctor about your medications. You may be asked to stop taking some medications up to one week before the procedure, like:
- Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs)
- Blood thinners
- Antiplatelets
Leading up to your procedure:
- Arrange for a ride to and from the procedure.
- The night before, eat a light meal. Do not eat or drink anything after midnight.
Local anesthetic will be given to numb the throat. It will also help to prevent coughing and gagging. Sometimes, a bronchoscopy is done under general anesthesia. In this case, you will be asleep.
Description of the Procedure
The bronchoscope is a long, thin tube. It will be inserted through the nose or mouth. The scope will be passed down the throat and into the lungs.
The scope sends an image of the lung tissue to a TV monitor. The doctor may use the images and the scope to remove a small tissue sample. If a foreign body is present, the doctor may be able to remove it through the scope. If a lavage is planned, a water solution may be used to wash an area. The solution is then removed and sent to a lab for examination.
Immediately After Procedure
The removed tissue or secretions will be sent to a lab for examination.
How Long Will It Take?
Less than 1 hour
How Much Will It Hurt?
Anesthesia prevents pain and coughing during the procedure. You may feel a tugging sensation when the doctor removes a tissue sample. You may also experience some breathing difficulty or shortness of breath during the procedure.
Expect some soreness in your throat and hoarseness for a few days after the procedure. Any discomfort after the procedure can be managed with medications.
Postoperative Care
You may have an x-ray before you go home. This is to make sure there are no lung complications, such as bleeding or a pneumothorax. A pneumothorax can lead to a collapsed lung.
Once the numbness in your throat wears off, you may be given sips of water. You may gradually progress to solid food as tolerated.
When you return home, do the following to help ensure a smooth recovery:
- Spit out saliva. Do not try to swallow it while your throat muscles are numb.
- If you had a biopsy, do not cough or clear your throat.
- Do not drive until the sedative has completely worn off and you are fully awake.
- If you had to stop medications before the procedure, ask your doctor when you can start again.
- Be sure to follow your doctor's instructions.
The doctor may give you a report after the sedative wears off and you are alert. It may take a few days to receive results from a biopsy. It may take up to six weeks for findings from a tuberculosis test. Ask your doctor when to expect your results.
The doctor may give you a report after the sedative wears off and you are alert. It may take a few days to receive results from a biopsy. It may take up to six weeks for findings from a tuberculosis test. Ask your doctor when to expect your results.
Call Your Doctor
After arriving home, contact your doctor if any of the following occurs:
- Signs of infection, including fever and chills
- Cough, shortness of breath, or chest pain
- Coughing up more than a teaspoon of blood
- Severe nausea or vomiting
- Increased or unusual stridor, which is a noisy sound that is heard when breathing
- Pain that you cannot control with the medications you have been given
If you think you have an emergency, call for medical help right away.

Buying a Home - Interest Rates Aren't Everything
Most people shop for a home mortgage based primarily on interest rates, and that is a great place to start. After all, the higher the interest rate, the higher the monthly payments and the more you will pay in total interest. However, when you compare two loans, don't just compare interest rates. Fees can vary greatly from lender to lender and dramatically impact the total cost of a loan.
Ask for a Good Faith Estimate (GFE) from a lender; it breaks down the different fees associated with a loan. Look for application fees, points, processing fees, and any other charges.
Also make sure you understand all the terms and conditions. For example, some mortgages come with prepayment penalties if you pay off the loan early you could be charged a percentage of the loan amount. (If at all possible avoid loans with prepayment penalties.)When you shop for a mortgage, don't just focus on interest rates check out the total package.

Nearly all city workers now trained to use AEDs
Public Works employees have finished training the use of automated external defibrillators and CPR. That means just about every city worker now has skills to deal with a life-threatening medical incident.
Snowplow drivers, for instance, are in position to see a number of weather-related incidents - such as people collapsing while shoveling their driveways, Deputy Chief James Case said. An AED can be used to a shock a person's heart back into rhythm and keep him or her alive until paramedics arrive.
In the future, the Fire Department hopes to extend those life-saving lessons to the public, Case added.
In the meantime, the Fire Department is taking donations and seeking grant money to equip more of its vehicles with AEDs, Fire Chief Rob Ugaste said.
"We did a great job of getting AEDs in the police patrol cars, but not in our own vehicles," he said.» Read Full Article
The social media story of Wauwatosa West at Wauwatosa East football
Wauwatosa West and Wauwatosa East opened their football seasons in style: With a crosstown battle at Hart Park on Aug. 22.
The Trojans and Red Raiders have had an even record against each other in recent years.
The Red Raiders won 21-13 in 2011. After skipping a matchup in the 2012 season, the Trojans won 54-0 last year.

Trojans rule the city another year
For the second year in a row, it is the Trojans from Wauwatosa West who rule their city after beating Wauwatosa East, 42-7, on Friday evening at Hart Park in the season opener for both sides.
Demaris Purifoy was particularly effective, scoring five times and racking up 152 yards to help the Trojans win easily.
Neither team produced particularly good offense on their respective opening possessions, but when the Raiders fumbled a Trojans punt, Matt Lundell was there to pounce on the loose ball and recover possession for West on the East 12-yard line. Truman Tyson ran the ball to the 1 on the subsequent play, setting up Purifoy's touchdown run to open the scoring.
East couldn't get its offense rolling and turned the ball over on downs without getting a first down. The Trojans wasted little time adding to their lead and went up 13-0 on a 13-yard touchdown run from Paris Howell. Zach Veit added the extra point for a 14-0 lead.
"You lose the turnover battle and you lose the battle up front, you have no chance of winning, and that's what happened tonight," Tosa East coach Mike Richards said. "Tosa West is a good team, and we lost the battle at the line of scrimmage. We couldn't really get things going. Unfortunately we gave them two gifts at the beginning of the game; we were down a quick 14-0."» Read Full Article

Wauwatosa students hit same average ACT score as last year
Coming out ahead of the statewide average ACT score, but not showing improvement from previous years, Wauwatosa students scored a composite average of 23.4 this year on the curriculum-based college readiness test.
More Wauwatosa students took the test than ever before, according to Superintendent Phil Ertl, with 75 percent of students participating.
About 73 percent of Wisconsin high school graduates took the ACT. The average score statewide, 22.2, was the second highest in the nation, falling only behind Minnesota's average of 22.9.
Wauwatosa did not score in the top ten school districts in the metro area, which was led by Whitefish Bay with an average score of 26.72. The highest possible score is 36.
Wauwatosa students taking the test this year tied last year's score, but came in lightly lower than previous years since 2002.

East Tosa business owners clash over BID
As one group of property owners in East Tosa hopes to establish a business improvement district to promote and enhance North Avenue, another is trying to stop it, worried about the additional charge on their property tax bills.
At a public hearing Monday night, the opposition was louder, but the Wauwatosa Plan Commission approved the East Tosa BID's initial operating plan. Members of the Plan Commission said they hoped the businesses would come to a compromise on the details of the district to gain more support before the plan goes before the Budget and Finance Committee next month. The proposal would also have to be approved by the Common Council.
The plan could be stopped in its tracks if businesses collect opposing signatures from owners representing at least 40 percent of the assessed value in the district — a process they have already begun.
The district would stretch from 60th Street to Wauwatosa Avenue, which includes a total taxable assessed value of about $32.8 million. Property owners in the district would have to pay $3.50 per $1,000 of assessed value to the BID, with a $550 minimum and $5,000 maximum. Residences and non-profits would be exempted.
Under the proposal, the BID would have a 2015 operating budget of about $110,000. That includes about $57,000 for staff and administrative expenses, $27,000 for banners and street furniture, and $26,000 for marketing.
Weed found at Macy's inside Mayfair mall
A small, clear plastic bag of marijuana was found on the floor in front of a cash register at Macy's inside Mayfair mall, 2500 North Mayfair Road, at about 7:40 p.m. August 1.
An unidentified male employee discovered the bag of weed on the ground, the report said, but does not know when it would have appeared or who it would belong to.
Police could not recover digital surveillance of the area because the camera was not pointed in that direction during the potential time of the incident, the report said.
The bag of marijuana weighed about 0.61 grams.
Woman leaves dog in hot car, charged with animal cruelty
An unidentified woman was charged with animal cruelty after allegedly leaving her Doberman in the car for almost three hours in 88-degree weather while parked at Mayfair North Tower, 2600 N. Mayfair Road, on Tuesday, July 22.
Wauwatosa police observed the dog in distress around 5 p.m. on Tuesday after an anonymous witness called to report the incident. The dog was seen panting heavily and had defecated all over the car, the police report said.
In 90 degree heat, a car's internal temperature can reach 133 degrees after one hour, according to The Weather Channel's website.
The dog's owner, whose name could not be released due to the police department's redacting policy, returned to the car at 5:30 p.m. By that time, the police had already unlocked the car, removed the Doberman and placed him in a shaded area with water.
She said she had arrived at Mayfair North Tower at 2:45 p.m. for a work meeting she had at 3 p.m. with a potential client. The report said she had expected the meeting to last 10 minutes, which is why she parked in the "15-minute" parking space.» Read Full Article

Hawaiian grocery crowd-funds commercial kitchen
Hawaiian grocery store, deli and caterer One Kine Grindz is hoping to raise $35,000 from friends and fans online to install a commercial kitchen at their Wauwatosa storefront, which would allow them to continue serving prepared foods for take-out and catering.
On their recently launched GoFundMe page, they ask customers to help them meet state code requirements for a commercial kitchen, including a hood vent, stove, oven, indoor grill, and fire suppression system.
"This has proven to be a much larger and more costly proposition than we can handle ourselves," the description reads. "So we are reaching out in the hopes that you might donate what ever you can to help us get a kitchen built (no amount to small)."
The effort had a dozen backers Monday afternoon in amounts ranging from $10 to $100, together totaling $535.
One Kine Grindz opened in 2010 at 7215 W North Ave. in Wauwatosa, expanding over the years from selling groceries to catering and serving meals inside and on its patio.
Wauwatosa School District creates new mobile app
Wauwatosa School District has gone mobile.
In the next logical step to increasing its web presence with a refreshed website, the district has created a mobile app for iPhone and Android phones. The mobile app offers both a private and a public function.
The public setting displays the same information that is visible from the district's desktop website. The private setting allows users to login with a custom username and password and access classes that their children are enrolled in, combined calendars and more.
Students will have the same access to class information from the private app setting.
Download the app for iPhone from the Apple App Store or for Android from Google Play.
Tosa responds to concerns about radiation from water meters
After receiving two complaints in the past couple months from residents who did not want Wauwatosa to install new smart water meters on their properties, city officials are considering an opt-out option for residents with health concerns about radiation.
One Wauwatosa man, Greg Schliesmann, recently turned to the media to voice his frustration over the installation attempt, saying the city threatened to shut off his water if he did not allow the smart meter on his property.
According to the American Cancer Society, the radio-frequency waves emitted from the meters, like those from cell phones, have a potential to cause harm but at an "extremely low" risk. The smart meters are able to relay readings back to City Hall so workers don't have to visit private properties.
Karen Jaeckels, mayoral assistant, said the city is now in touch with Schliesmann and proposing a smart meter to go outside his home to give him more distance, as it did last year for another resident with a health concern. She said the city has no plans to shut off his water.
City staff are also considering an opt-out program that might allow residents to pay a fee to use a meter without radiation. That would have to be approved by the Common Council and the Public Service Commission.

My wife convinced the kids and I to join her in visiting an assortment of homes in the Wausau Area Builders Association's Parade of Homes yesterday. A steady diet of HGTV inspired my wife to participate in the annual event in which builders and new home buyers open their homes to the public.
The homes feature incredible craftsmanship and special features (one had an indoor basketball court!).
Most notably, I had the pleasure of visiting a newly constructed house northeast of Merrill in Lincoln County. The home, built by Prime Design Construction LLC, is lovingly called a 'hunting shack' by its owners, but it features amenities not found in most cabins.
Compare the photos above to the shots from deer camp that we've assembled. Which would you pick?
Visit the Wausau Area Builders Association site for more information on the Parade of Homes.

The first level of the home is fairly standard with a three seasons room, many windows overlooking the backyard, a high ceiling crossed by beams and a luxurious kitchen.
The basement (or 'man cave' as it was labeled) is what made the home unique. A home theater, bar (complete with various game tables), bunk room and indoor outhouse were among the features.
My wife and I tried counting the number of additional jobs we'd need to work to probably afford a place like this, but a guy can dream, can't he?

This is exactly what I was looking for. The product was very strong and excellently built. I was a bit skeptical about buying from overstock.com since you can never tell with online companies, but they are absolutely great and provided excellent service.
loved it, saved a ton of money and now own the most comfortable bed of my life. showed up exactly when then said they would.
I love my new bed! I've had it about a month now and it's great. My dad put it together with no problems. The only reason I didn't give it 5 stars is because there were only 3 slats. I don't have a box spring so I needed more. I put my mattress on top of the 3 and it worked for a few days before getting more slats, but it did start sinking you'd expect. We actually took apart my old box spring that was falling apart anyway and used the bottom piece that's basically a wooden frame with a lot more slats across it. We drilled that into the base of the bed and voila, perfect! It even added an inch or so in height so my mattress is pretty high up, as if there was a box spring. If I had a box spring, it would be way too high! All in all, I love it!
I purchased this as a gift for my brother and he is quite satisfied! Although it did not come with directions, it is very easy to assemble. There are no special tools needed or anything, and it took about an hour to put together. It looks great in his space, it is great for a medium sized bedroom, maybe even a small bedroom.
I ordered this for our spare bedroom, it's not a large room so I was worried that it might over power the room but it was perfect! I am so pleased with this purchase, thanks overstock!
Only thing this bed needs is additional slats, which I had read about in other review. Nice bed!
I have had this bed close to a year now and have moved with it also. Assembly took two people and not long at all. Directions were easy to follow and fabric and railings are sturdy. Completely satisfied with my purchase and sure I will have it around for years to come!
Easy to put together! Looks much more expensive than price! Too low to the ground to fit much underneath for storage, but prefer this bc the dog can't fit underneath! Second bed I've bought from overstock and couldn't be more happy!
By following the other reviewer suggestions, we immediately took a slat to Home Depot and had several others cut. With this additional support for the mattress, the bed frame is great. It is very attractive and no one would ever guess how inexpensive it was.
This bed is excellent for a spare bedroom. Very sturdy bed and doesn't make noise when you have two people in it.

OAKLAND, Calif. -- With four picks in the first round of the First-Year Player Draft and seven of the top 39 picks overall,
the A's went back to college in a big way Tuesday.
Starting with the selection of first baseman/outfielder Nick Swisher of Ohio State University with the No. 16 overall pick,
the A's went 4-for-4 in drafting college players in the first round as the 2002 draft got under way Tuesday morning. And they
didn't stop there.
In fact, the A's selected college players exclusively through their first 23 picks, through 17 rounds. Of the 28 players they
picked on the first day, 25 of them came from the college ranks.
"That wasn't necessarily by design," said A's scouting director Eric Kubota. "We didn't say, 'We're going to wait until the
18th round to pick a high school player.' The way they fell, the high school guys we liked and valued weren't there at the
spots where we would have taken them."
That was evident right from the beginning, as the A's selected Swisher and then kept on selecting college players. Swisher, a
5-foot-11, 195-pounder projected to play center field, is the son of former Major League catcher Steve Swisher, and he was
right at the top of Oakland's list of players they hoped they could pick at No. 16.
For pitchers like Blanton and Fritz, being selected by the A's was good news. Oakland has a very strong recent history of
drafting and developing college pitchers -- including current starters Mark Mulder (second overall in 1998), Barry Zito
(ninth overall in '99) and Tim Hudson (sixth round in 1997).
"When I saw I was picked by the A's, it was very encouraging knowing the way they bring college pitchers along rather
quickly," Blanton said. "They've done a great job, as you can see by the starters they have now."
The A's were stocked with four first-rounders -- and seven of the first 39 picks overall -- after losing Jason Giambi, Johnny
Damon and Jason Isringhausen to free agency this past winter. The A's not only had their own pick (No. 26), but also the
first-round picks of the Red Sox (No. 16, for Damon), the Yankees (No. 24, for Giambi) and the Cardinals (No. 30, for
Isringhausen). They also had three supplemental first round picks as compensation for losing those free agents.
The college trend continued as the A's went through their supplemental picks, as the A's picked catcher Jeremy Brown of the
University of Alabama as the 35th pick, right-handed pitcher Stephen Obenchain of Evansville University with the 37th pick
and third baseman Mark Teahen of St. Mary's College with the 39th.
It wasn't until the 18th round that the A's took a prep player -- and he was from Puerto Rico. Right-handed pitcher Jose
Corchado from Dr. Heriberto Domenech High School in Isabela, Puerto Rico started a run of three high school picks by the A's,
the only three they made all day.
On the first day, the A's selected 11 college pitchers (nine right-handers and two left-handers), along with two high school
pitchers. They also picked three college catchers, eight infielders (seven college, one high school), and four college
"I think it's great," Swisher said. "It's extremely hard for high school players to come right in and play the caliber of ball minor league players do. It's hard to be physically and mentally prepared for that, and I think college is definitely a great way to help your game out."
From the moment the draft started at 10 a.m. PT, the first day of the draft went as well as the A's could have
"If you told us at 9:45 this morning that it would have lined up like this, we probably would have said you're joking,"
Kubota said. "We're ecstatic."

Ooured a slightly hazy burnt orange with a thinner but sticky white head that leaves spots of lace as it settled.Fresh raw hop aroma comes at ya hard when first opening the bottle extremely piney with big grapefruit notes as well I even noticed a touch of caramel malt as well.Well oddly enough hop dominated hop oils and resin dominate quite piney but that resiny finish is great just enough of a hint of caramel makes it a gem in my mind.A few years ago I would have thought a good beer but a little over the top for me now I take it all in,gotta love the hops.

Appearance This poured a big and thick orange in color with a beautiful orangish-white head that came up just right, showed great retention, and left some awesome lacing on the inside of my pint glass. This was the kind of beer that makes you want to fetch your camera.
Smell The West Coast hops and sweetish malts are balanced just right at the nose. The sharp tangerine rind smell and the lightly-toasted malts work well together. You can just tell that this is going to taste great.
Taste The flavors work together just as well as the smells did. There's a big rush of pine that I failed to pick up at the nose. The malts have a lot of caramel sweetness to them. This is a sharp, powerful ale.
Mouthfeel This is a big big IPA. It's shy of full-bodied but bigger than medium. It's not overly dry but has enough dryness to shock the average drinker.
Drinkability I wasn't expecting this from a sub-$2 beer but this heavy hitter is incredibly well done.

Poured from bottle into pub glass.
A: Pours a clear burnt copper color. Voluminous cream colored head. Well carbonated with a nice layer of foam persisting the whole time and good lacing.
S: Whoa hops!! Yes, big ass piney hops. Dank and cannabinoid. Great aromatics. This screams west coast IPA.
T: Hop flavors hit immediately with a full frontal attack. The profile is big pine resin on the palate with herbal and spicy notes. Citric flavors well up from underneath on the midpalate and culminate in an orange and grapefruit juice-like aftertaste. Great bitterness all the way across the palate, lingering with a slightly astringent tingle throughout the long finish. Good malt backbone on this one, with a nice underlying sweetness buried under big ass hops.
M: Nice medium-bodied brew with good carbonation. Decent slickness.
D: Very good. This is a great IPA and easy to drink more than one.
Overall, a superb effort by Green Flash. Quintessential west coast IPA - very appropriately named. Everything clicks with this brew. Very impressed.

Served on tap in a pint glass at Tyler's Tap Room (Apex, NC)
Slightly cloudy amber in the glass with just barely a finger's worth of white foam. Head dissipates quickly but leaves a pretty stable film of bubbles and a heavier ring around the glass. Lacing was good and lasted all the way down the glass.
Aromas are all hops with the citrus grapefruit smell coming on the strongest. Very pungent!
The flavors are intense, with plenty of hop bitterness coming out strong. This brew really tastes a lot like it smells with a very biting citrus grapefruit flavor. All that bitterness rests on a very solid malt backbone that is really just along for the ride. The finish is long on hoppy bitterness and the linger just brings on more of that citrus grapefruit bitterness. Mouthfeel is nice with a modest carbonation that doesn't fight with or limit the hops while at the same time helping to create a good weight.
Overall drinkability is good if you like IPAs. Personally, I'm a fan, and I found this go be a very solid brew. Definitely worth a try if you are into hops.

Thanks to Warriorsoul for this one! Sampled & reveiwed on 1/13/07:
Ap: Medium pour raises full finger of creamy head with rocky surface. Copper color, good carbonation. Sparkling & clean.
Ar: Wonderfully hoppy! Deep fruit aromas of grapes & citrus, as well as pine needles & evergreens. Slight alcohol notes in the background.
Ta: Hops dominate from start to finish. Nice sweet malty middle which is quickly turned with another blast of hops in the finish. Stong citrusy, piney, apricot flavor.
Mo: Medium bodied. Mouth puckering from hop bitterness. A bit too bitter in the aftertaste - slightly cloying. Very good carbonation for the style.
Dr: Medium drinkability. Due to heightened bitterness, its a slow sipper for me. Could only have one or taste buds would be shattered!
Comments: The aroma is the real winner here. Dominated by the trademark citrusy NW hops, it truly radiates hoppiness. The flavor is pleasant, but could cut down on the bittering hop addition.

From BeerAdvocate Magazine Volume II, Issue V:
From the website: "Hops used include Simcoe for a unique fruitiness and grapefruit zest, Columbus for strong hop pungency, Centennial for pine and citrus notes and Cascade for floral aroma." That's insane, but a hophead's dream.
Pour this one carefully. We didn't the first time and wound up with the unfiltered, chunky dregs floating around in our pint glasses. Granted, they won't kill you and are actually good for you, but they could be off-putting for some. Less that, this IPA pours bright amber with burnt orange hues and a massive creamy foam head (like a big dollop of cream) that's sticky and retains very well--remember head on a beer is good as it releases volatiles for aroma and taste. Aroma is strong with grapefruit and herbs--gets the glands going--with soft grain and floral notes beneath. Nearly full-bodied, with a smooth, even consistency. Immediate smacking of grapefruit, herbal, resin, touch of mint, raw leaf and ash with a piney, grassy and oily bitter linger. So damn juicy and citric. Sweet, bready and a bit toasty beneath the hop carnage, providing just enough balance. Alcohol is very well hidden, with a slight burnt character toward the finish with ashy resin.
Few come close to the sublimely intense hoppiness that's Green Flash West Coast IPA. We love this beer.

Bangkok is the capital and largest city in Thailand. It began as a small trading center on the west bank of the Chao Phraya River serving the Ayutthaya Kingdom, the precursor of modern Thailand which existed from 1350 to 1767. The city has vastly modernized and undergone numerous changes, including the introduction of transportation and utility infrastructure in the reigns of King Mongkut and King Chulalongkorn, and quickly developed into the economic centre of Thailand.
The following Shore Excursions are available for this port on this cruise, and may be reserved beginning 240 days before the cruise begins for guests receiving Concierge amenities, and 180 days before the cruise begins for all other guests. Guests receiving Concierge amenities will receive a 5% discount off of the prices shown below for Regent Choice tours.

Depart the pier for the 2 hour drive to historic Ayutthaya, stopping along the way for lunch at a local venue. Ayutthaya was founded in 1350 AD, and remained the kingdom's capital for 417 years until 1767 AD, when it was conquered and destroyed by the Burmese. Your tour will begin with a visit to the exquisite Bang Pa-In Summer Palace, formerly a popular summer retreat for Thai kings.

SEATTLE -- When the First-Year Player Draft in 1991 went through the first nine rounds without his name being mentioned, future five-time American League All-Star Mike Sweeney had to be wondering if he ever would be selected.Finally, in the 10th round, Sweeney was selected by the Kansas City Royals, becoming the 262nd player picked out of the deep pool of amateur talent. Five years later, he was making his Major League debut.

Bodley: Nats must be patient
He's still playing first base/designated hitter for the Mariners, winding down a stellar big league career that included All-Star Game invitations in 2000, '01, '02, '03 and '05 with the Royals.It just goes to show that players selected after the first three rounds can become All-Stars. After 111 picks on Day 1 -- including Rounds 1, 2 and 3 and Compensation Rounds A and B, -- and rounds four through 30 on Wednesday, the Draft will conclude on Thursday with the 31st through 50th rounds, beginning at 8:30 a.m. PT. MLB.com's coverage will include a live pick-by-pick audio stream, expert commentary and the exclusive Draft Tracker, a searchable database of every Draft-eligible player, featuring statistics, scouting reports and video highlights. Fans will not only be able to follow along every minute of the way online, but they'll be able to interact directly with Draft-eligible players and MLB.com Draft experts, among others. The Draft Tracker will also feature the addition of Twitter, and the participation of "tweeters" such as MLB.com Draft expert @JonathanMayoB3, who will also be serving as on-air talent for all three days of the Draft; and reporter @LisaWinstonMLB, who will be writing the up-to-the-minute coverage for MLB.com. In addition, MLB.com has created a Twitter account devoted to the Draft, where you can stay updated on every piece of info as it becomes available (@MLBDraft). The Mariners' current 25-man roster includes eight players that were selected in the fourth round or later. Left-hander Erik Bedard was the Orioles' sixth-round Draft choice in 1999, the 187th overall selection, and reached the big leagues for the first time in 2002. First baseman Russell Branyan, a seventh-round selection by the Indians in 1994, the 185th player chosen, needed just three years of Minor League seasoning before reaching the big leagues. Reliever Mark Lowe, Seattle's fifth-round Draft selection in '04, the 153d pick overall, made it to the Major Leagues in 2006. And more recently, and even more astounding, right-handed reliever Shawn Kelley -- currently on the 15-day disabled list with a strained oblique -- sat around until the 13th round of the '07 Draft, was selected by the Mariners with the 405th overall pick, and needed just two years to reach The Show. Here are the fourth-round Draft choices -- or later: Rob Johnson, 4th round '04, SEA, 123rd overall, reached MLB in 2007
Mark Lowe, 5th round, '04, SEA, 153rd overall, reached MLB in 2006
Erik Bedard, 6th round, '99, BAL, 187th overall, reached MLB in 2002
Sean White, 8th round, 2003, ATL, 247th overall, reached MLB in 2007
Jamie Burke, 9th round, '93, LAA, 243rd overall, reached MLB in 2001
Russell Branyan, 7th round, '94, CLE, 185th overall, reached MLB in 1998
