Post Senior Bowl Practices Mock:Resign Bennett, Miller, and Barber (I'm going to assume he comes back for this mock). Tender Blount.F.A. Sean Smith, Glenn Dorsey, Leodis McKelvinRd 1 trade back to #24 and pick up Indy's 3rd round. They take Chance Warmack to help protect Luck and improve their anemic run game.Round 1 - Logan Ryan CB - I may be way off on this, but I still think that Ryan will jump into the first round mix before it's all said and done. So if Schiano wants him, he'll have to pull the trigger.2. Stedman Bailey WR - I still think Dominik wants to add weapons around Freeman. This will give him a new slot WR.3a. DJ Swearinger FS - Barber's heir apparent. Ahmad Black has played respectably, but I just don't see him taking over to start.3b. Travis Kelce TE - A big, well rounded TE who can gain some extra yards after contact and gives Free another big red zone target.4a. Jordan Mills OT - He outplayed bigger names this week. He can compete to start at RT early, and at the very least add some valuable O-line depth4b. Brian Schewnke C/OG - He may have played himself into the 2nd day this week, but as of now I'm hoping he's still here. Depth and eventual starter once they realize he outplays Davin's contract.5. Steve Beauharnais ILB - Another Rutgers player to add LB depth and special teams play.6. Quanterus Smith DE - Strong pass rusher, had a late season ACL injury. Had a good showing against Alabama.7. Luke Marquardt OT - Small school project for Bostad. Big and athletic enough to take a flyer on and hope he can eventually take over for Penn. If not, it's just a 7th.I know this doesn't include QB competition, but it does cover most of our needs and upgrade some important areas. With the crapiness of this year's QB free agent and draft classes, we should just wait until next year to go after Freeman's replacement (if he doesn't prove himself worthy of a new contract).
Trades shouldn't be allowed in mocks. It's quickly turns the pointless but fun forecasting, into the extremely ridiculous fantasy land scenarios.
What is your point? I was wrong? Ok. You win. I was wrong.
Jdouble sounds bitter that people are coming up with better mocks than he is. LOL

1980 Crompond Road, Cortlandt Manor, NY 10567
Cortlandt Manor, NY - (April 2, 2013) – Thirty men ditched their razors for the month of March to raise funds and awareness for the Cheryl R. Lindenbaum Comprehensive Cancer Center at Hudson Valley Hospital. The "Winning Winter Whiskers" campaign raised more than $15,000 for the center and concluded with a grand finale celebration at the Peekskill Brewery on April 1st. The celebration was sponsored by the Brewery, Drive Action Digital and Beale Street Barber Shop.
Beard growers, supporters, hospital employees and members of the community attended the 2nd Annual Beard Bash where awards were presented for most money raised, wildest beard, longest beard, and most creative fundraising tactics. William Dauster, VP of Marketing & Development led the pack bringing in $3,765 for the Center.
Attendees enjoyed "Wet Your Whiskers" signature cocktail, along with a selection of PB beers and hors d'oevres from the newly opened restaurant. Top fundraisers were treated to an old-fashioned straight-edge razor shave compliments of Beale Street Barber Shop.

CNHI News Service
JOPLIN, Mo. — Weather warnings have reached the digital age - a fact proven by Keith Stammer's cell phone. His latest mobile software is the free Tornado App, created by the American Red Cross to issue audio alerts including a high-pitched siren and the spoken, "Tornado warning!" when bad weather approaches.
Stammer, director of emergency management in Joplin, suggests people have back-up systems for their back-up systems when it comes to weather warnings. He encourages people to monitor three sources - the outdoor sirens typically maintained by municipalities, weather radios available for $30 to $60, and cellphone alerts.
"It's always better to have too much information than not enough," said Stammer, whose city was hit by a mile-wide tornado in May 2011 that killed 158 people and injured more than 1,000 others.
The Red Cross launched its new app in time for National Severe Weather Preparedness Week. The app also includes location-based alerts for severe thunderstorms and floods. When a warning expires or is cancelled, the app gives an, "All clear!"
A feature allows users to reassure family and friends they are out of harm's way.
"Tornadoes often happen in the overnight hours when people are sleeping,'' said Debi Meeds, CEO of the American Red Cross for Southern Missouri. "The audible alerts in this app can save lives — even if users can't monitor the weather because they are away from radio, TV or in places where weather band radios may not work.''
The Red Cross has launched other apps for earthquakes, fires, first aid and hurricanes. The latter grew popular after Hurricane Sandy hit the East Coast. It was downloaded by more than 400,000 users looking for real-time recovery information.
The National Weather Service has no app, but spokesman Steve Runnels noted its information "feeds the dozens of weather apps that are out there, whether it be a basic forecast or a situation involving a severe weather event and how hazardous it will be."
Runnels recommended the purchase of a portable NOAA weather radio. "Not only do you get your forecast, but also whenever it issues a watch or warning it will alert you," he said.
The Red Cross' Tornado App, along with the others, are available in the online Apple Store, Google's Play Store for Android or by visiting www.redcross.org/mobileapps.
The National Weather Service offers a comprehensive list of free email and messaging alert services, as well as a few that have fees attached, at www.weather.gov/subscribe.
Details for this story were reported by the Joplin, Mo., Globe.

DENVER -- The quest to beef up Colorado's pitching staff resulted in the Rockies obtaining right-hander Guillermo Moscoso and left-hander Josh Outman from the Athletics on Monday for outfielder Seth Smith.The Rockies' signing of free-agent outfielder Michael Cuddyer dictated that the team would seek to deal Smith. The Rockies talked with the Braves in an attempt to acquire second baseman Martin Prado but did not reach an agreement, and the Mariners also were mentioned in reports. However, the deal with the Athletics for Moscoso, 28, who set career highs in nearly every category last season, and Outman, 27, who has been in and out of the Majors since 2008, satisfied the initiative to build pitching depth and competition. "Both were in the rotation for Oakland, and Moscoso was the No. 2 starter before the end of the year," Rockies general manager Dan O'Dowd said. "Both are gong to come in and compete for the starting rotation, and both have versatility and [Minor League] options. It should be a spirited competition in Spring Training." The trade came a day after Smith reached a one-year, $2.415 million agreement with the Rockies. The move puts the Rockies' Major League roster at the limit of 40. However, the buildup of pitching depth could make another deal possible before the season begins, O'Dowd said. He also said that the team is seeking a veteran starter on a Minor League contract. Last season, Moscoso went 8-10 with a 3.38 ERA, 74 strikeouts and 38 walks, and held opponents to a .212 batting average in 23 games (21 starts). He also went 3-3 with a 3.88 ERA in nine appearances (eight starts) at Triple-A Sacramento. Originally signed by the Tigers as an undrafted free agent in 2002, he was traded to the Rangers in December 2008 for catcher Gerald Laird, and made 11 appearances for the Rangers in 2009 and 2010. He has a career 3.47 ERA. The Athletics obtained him for right-handed pitcher Ryan Kelly in January 2011. Outman appeared in 13 games -- nine of which were starts -- for the Athletics last season and went 3-5 with a 3.70 ERA. He struck out 35 hitters and walked 25. The left-hander spent the rest of the year at Sacramento, posting an 8-3 record with a 3.91 ERA in 17 starts. Originally a 10th-round pick by the Phillies out of Central Missouri State in 2005, he was traded to the Athletics for pitcher Joe Blanton in June 2005. "Moscoso is less risk, a strike-thrower and a good competitor," O'Dowd said. "He's got a good fastball and changeup, a little cutter and he's got some deception. Outman has a bigger arm. His walks are a little high, but he's got a big arm, he competes well and he's a left-hander. We'll give [manager] Jim [Tracy] and [pitching coach] Bob [Apodaca] some decisions to make, both starting rotation-wise and bullpen-wise." Moscoso said he was able to make big strides with the Athletics because he had a greater opportunity than in the past. Now, he has a new opportunity in Colorado. "I don't know what's going to happen," he said. "I know they want me in the rotation, but it's something that we have to find out in Spring Training -- just go there and fight for my spot."
Outman's career was interrupted by an elbow surgery that required surgery in June 2009 and cost him the rest of that year and all of 2010. Outman is a fly-ball pitcher, but he has a chance for success.Although Coors has long been good to hitters, it is a big park, and the number of cheap home runs hit there has been limited in recent years because the Rockies are storing baseballs in a chamber that prevents them for hardening and shrinking in the Rocky Mountain climate. Plus, the Rockies have speedy outfielders -- specifically Carlos Gonzalez in left and Dexter Fowler in center. "I obviously spent some time with the A's and thought it was going to be kind of a breakout year for me, now that I've gotten fully over the surgery and everything, and an opportunity to get back into the rotation," Outman said. "But I think I'm going to get a really good opportunity with Colorado. Just another place where I know they want me." With veteran Jorge De La Rosa beginning the year on the disabled list as he recovers from Tommy John surgery on his left elbow, the Rockies can choose from a large group of young candidates. Right-hander Jhoulys Chacin will be given a chance to become the staff ace. Also battling for jobs in the rotation this spring will be starters Drew Pomeranz, Alex White, Tyler Chatwood, Kevin Slowey, Juan Nicasio, Jason Hammel and Esmil Rogers. The Rockies selected Smith, 29, out of Ole Miss in the second round of the First-Year Player Draft in 2004. He debuted in mid-September of 2007 and went 5-for-8 as a pinch-hitter during the Rockies' dramatic run to the playoffs. He then went 3-for-6 with a double and two RBIs during that postseason, during which the Rockies swept the Phillies in the National League Division Series and the D-backs in the NL Championship Series before being swept by the Red Sox in the World Series. In 2011, Smith, who plays both corner outfield positions, hit .284 with 15 home runs, 32 doubles, nine triples and 59 RBIs. In his career, Smith has hit.275 with 51 home runs, 78 doubles, 19 triples and 181 RBIs in 487 Major League games. "He's a great kid who did a lot for our franchise, especially those years when he came up and delivered some big hits off the bench for us," O'Dowd said. "It was very difficult to trade him, just like it was difficult to trade Chris Iannetta and Ian Stewart. But with the moves we made we felt like his opportunities were going to be somewhat limited, so we feel this is best for him as well. With Charlie Blackmon, Tyler Colvin and Eric Young Jr., we feel this gives one or two of them an opportunity to play."
Smith patiently sat through the trade speculation until the deal finally occurred.
"I was able to talk to [Athletics general manager] Billy Beane earlier today, and he had some good things to say and some exciting things," Smith said. "We're definitely looking forward to the opportunity. I'd like to say that our time in Denver was fantastic. My wife and family, we love Denver, and it'll always have a special place for us, and I have nothing but great things to say about the city, the fans and the organization. We're definitely going to miss it."

Martin gets second straight All-Star nod
Catcher will represent Dodgers on National League squad
SAN FRANCISCO -- Catcher Russell Martin has made his second consecutive National League All-Star team and will be the Dodgers' lone representative in the game to be played at Yankee Stadium on July 15. Cubs catcher Geovany Soto won the fan voting and will start behind the plate.

OK, one Indians player was assured. Every team in baseball, after all, gets one All-Star representative. But Wedge rattled off a second name, then a third and finally a fourth.
Four Indians on the All-Star team, really?
Yes, Wedge told his players and staff that second baseman Ronnie Belliard, left-fielder Matt Lawton, catcher Victor Martinez and pitcher C.C. Sabathia had been named to the 2004 team.
"It was exciting for me to see the reaction of their teammates with each individual," Wedge said. "It says a lot about our team."
What also says a lot about that team is the growing respect its players are getting in baseball circles. The Indians are a team with a 40-42 record, yet they had as many players make the team this season as they did in 2000, a season in which the Tribe was a legitimate AL powerhouse.
In addition to the four Indians who did make the 2004 team, the Tribe has DH/first baseman Travis Hafner in the running for the fifth spot. Hafner, one of the most productive DHs in the league, is one of five players that fans can pick from in the Final Vote.
"To get that kind of respect -- four guys on the All-Star team and possibly a fifth -- is awesome," said Sabathia, who will be making his second All-Star appearance. "I'm excited for everybody."
Put the names Lawton, Belliard and Martinez next to the word somebody, because they have all been central to the offensive production of the Tribe, a team whose offense might be the surprise of baseball.
Their selection goes a long way toward proving that numbers do matter when All-Stars are selected, because when you're a Victor Martinez and you're in competition with Jorge Posada, Ivan Rodriguez or Javy Lopez, your quality work can get overlooked, no matter how flattering your statistics might be.
"I knew that I had a chance because of the numbers that I got," said Martinez, in his first full season in the Major Leagues. "I say, 'Well, if it comes, good; if not, I take the two days of rest.'"
But he won't be taking any rest. Martinez will be headed to Houston with Sabathia, Belliard and Lawton. On July 13, they will all be in Minute Maid Park representing the Indians and the organization, which will make the trip more enjoyable.
It's a trip that Lawton, despite his glossy numbers, didn't figure he'd be taking.
"It's surprised me, so many guys that we had making it," he said. "I think it's a great thing."
The total of four players represents the most Indians picked for the AL team since 2000 when the Tribe also had four players (Roberto Alomar, Chuck Finley, Travis Fryman and Manny Ramirez) selected.
And none of those picked then shocked anybody. The Tribe then was one of the elite teams in the game. Today, it's a team trying to return to its glory days.
"It's a strong statement to the direction this big league club and the organization are going," Wedge said. "We you talk about four people making the All-Star team -- and potentially five -- it says a lot about where this team is going."
Wedge wanted everybody on the club to share the moment, which is why he made the announcement of the All-Star selections a public event.
Each of those selected appreciated the tribute he received from teammates, even a second-timer like Sabathia.
"I'm very appreciative of it," said Sabathia, who's blossomed into one of the game's top starting pitchers. "I'm a little more excited this year because Law, Belly and Vic are going with me. I'm excited to get to go down there and represent the Indians."

Illuminator is a good poster. He sticks to his guns and makes good points. Some don\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\'t like that.
Damn, you'd think that these secret cabals would learn not to let conspiracy nuts keep the minutes at their meetings.
The only thing that was exposed, is that Alex Jones is a complete d-bag, and would rather attempt to bully instead of engage in conversation/debate.Agree with him or not, Piers came away from that interview in a respectable manner. While Jones was completely classless.Sometimes delivery is just important as the message....or is delivery and tact "luciferian"?

Corn Blow-Down
The radar looked rough from work and then the report came out about a possible tornado not too far from my house. I am a little sheltered in a hollow near the top of the hill but not sheltered enough.
All the later season corn is laying flat. I may be able to prop it up but more severe weather is possible today.
My Incredible corn was mature on the first ear and young on the second. Third ear needs more time. Looks like it all gets picked today. The Silver Queen in the background was fine. It has very sturdy feeder roots starting about 5-6 inches above the ground.
My 8 foot tall Peaches and Cream was hammered except for a couple of plants. That is the Silver Queen in the background. The corn is laying down in three different directions.
Re: Corn Blow-Down
Yep I know the feeling. We had that happen a few years back. We salvaged some and propped the rest up. It helped

Re: Corn Blow-Down
Hopefully you will able to salvage some of the corn!
Re: Corn Blow-Down
That's awful. But that's farming. I'm thinking back when we had the "real" farm. If not a hurricane, tornado, drought, monsoon, a couple of times the army worms came through. And of course the weeds. Seems like a lot of things work against ya !

Re: Corn Blow-Down
I picked a couple of coolers of Incredible and gave it away to my tenants and neighbors. I was kind of surprised to find the Peaches and Cream was starting to mature so I will look at picking that later. Been to darn humid to think about blanching and freezing. The young corn is starting to stand up on its own. I didn't touch it yesterday as we had more torrential downpours.
Re: Corn Blow-Down
I have had my corn to blow down, and it will try to straighten up on its own. If it is close to maturity, it will finish making just like it is. Not pretty though.
Re: Corn Blow-Down
Have you tried freezing it without blanching? Hardly anyone in this area blanches corn before freezing it in this area anymore.

Re: Corn Blow-Down
I have not. I should try it. My stand alone freezer croaked with a bumper crop of blueberries in it- about 30 gallons. I have not replaced it but I sure miss my own corn in the winter. I heard people freeze the cob, too, but I don't have the space anymore. I suppose microwaving it would substitute for blanching if someone still wanted to cook it first.
Re: Corn Blow-Down
Bob, I think you need to get an aerial view of your corn patch and make sure it's not crop circles.

Re: Corn Blow-Down
Billy, This morning, most of the young corn was standing up again. I think the elves visited last night!
Re: Corn Blow-Down
Unless the stalks break, I've almost always had most of a blow down straighten back up.
It's pretty amazing how they just curve up from the ground.
Re: Corn Blow-Down
We had some go down a couple years ago just a little shy of maturity, and it did fine!--Just kinda hard to pick and walk--eeerrr stumble down the rows to pick the ears off!!!---give it a little time and I think you will still get your freezer quota yet!--happy corn eating come the ole howling winds of winter!
We never freeze it on the cob since it wastes valuable freezer space plus tastes cobby, so we cut it all off and bag it in smaller bags! thanks; sonny

I agree with Sonny, about the cobby taste. (I admit to being a little picky, about sweet corn, though) I cook the corn, quick cool it, cut it off the cobs, heat seal, and freeze in boilable bags. (more for freezer burn protection, than for reheating ease, although it is convenient to reheat) Ed

The good comments were from people laughing at the guy who took Freeman.
So much fail, so so much fail. I mean, even for a Java thread this has a surprising amount of fail in it. People are arguing for and against Freeman based on when he was drafted in his fantasy league. It just doesn't get any worse than this.
Quote from: TBayXXXVII on September 07, 2012, 09:47:45 AM The good comments were from people laughing at the guy who took Freeman.Haha. That's what I was thinking. I always say "that's a good pick" when I think the pick stinks.
I hope you have a 20 team league then.

Gonzalez, Cruz named Players of Week
Sluggers put on offensive show to lead Padres, Rangers
Padres first baseman Adrian Gonzalez and Rangers right fielder Nelson Cruz -- two thriving sluggers for a couple of first-place West-division teams -- were named Players of the Week for their respective leagues on Monday.
Gonzalez finished last week tied for first in the National League with nine RBIs, and his 12 hits and .444 batting average were tied for third. While his Padres -- 26-18 and a game up on the Dodgers in the NL West -- finished 4-3 against the Giants, Dodgers and Mariners, Gonzalez posted a .559 on-base percentage, .778 slugging percentage, six runs scored and 21 total bases.
The two-time All-Star went 3-for-5 with a walk and a career-high six RBIs in a 10-5 win over Los Angeles on Wednesday. Then, during the opener of Interleague Play, Gonzalez went 4-for-5 with three doubles and three runs scored in his club's 15-8 loss to Seattle
The 28-year-old lefty slugger, who has now won four Player of the Week awards in his career, is batting .284 with nine homers and 27 RBIs in his first 44 games of the season.
Cruz started off the day with the news that he was the No. 3-ranked American League outfielder in early fan voting for the July 13 All-Star Game in Anaheim. And he continued the day with his first Player of the Week award.
Last week, Nelson hit .458 with five runs scored, two homers and a Major League-best 12 RBIs. While the Rangers -- 25-20 and two games up on the Athletics in the AL West -- went 5-2 against the Angels, Orioles and Cubs last week, Cruz hit safely in all seven games while posting a .917 slugging percentage, .533 on-base percentage and an AL-best five doubles.
Cruz was nursing a strained right hamstring and returned from the disabled list on May 14. On Wednesday, the 29-year-old collected a walk-off sacrifice fly to break a 3-3 tie against Baltimore. The following day, he notched a career-high four hits and a three-run homer en route to a 13-7 win.
Through his first 29 games, Cruz -- an All-Star for the first time last season -- is batting .337 with nine homers and 33 RBIs.

I just love both of them, and thought they both did great last night - I hope they both get to the finals, and then maybe I'll choose (or not); also thought Sabrina and Helio were excellent (missed Gilles). I hope Bristol, then Drew, then Kirstie go. I know Kirstie's not as good as Drew, but he's not likable to me at all.

"So You Think You Can Dance" all stars came out to the Alvin Ailey American Dance Theatre to learn a special collaboration. Their dancers teamed up with the FOX dance stars to teach them a few moves all for a good cause.
"It's a company that says to the world that dance is for everybody and that we celebrate the power of dance to change things to change people's hearts and minds," said Robert Battle, the artistic director.
Founder Alvin Ailey, who lost his battle with HIV/AIDS in 1989, always used dance to celebrate the human spirit. Battle has continued in his legacy by commissioning Rennie Harris to create "Home," which is inspired by the stories of people living with or affected by HIV.
"We reflect on that what he and so many have had to endure and to remind people that were still fighting and 'Home' is really about that fighting hip hop is a celebration of life," he said.
The "So You Think You Can Dance" alumni came to learn the routine so they can perform it at the AIDS Lifecycle charity in Los Angeles this Saturday to help raise awareness to this disease.
"I'm so excited to be here I've actually never been in the Alvin Ailey dance studio," said Kathryn McCormick, from Season 6. "It's a company that you hear about your whole life and you're like 'Man, I want to see them, I wish I could dance with them,' and it's very rare that you get that opportunity… unless you're living in New York or audition for the company."
"What 'So You Think You Can Dance' has done for television, this studio has done for dance in New York," former contestant Neil Haskell said. "I grew up knowing about Ailey. Seeing the posters on the wall oh my god, so cool to be part of that it's always a dream come true to work with amazing people."
"Part of the connection between Alvin Ailey and 'So You Think You Can Dance' -- we are both interested in bringing dance to global communities," Battle said.
Alvin Ailey American Dance Theatre tickets are available for Lincoln Center performances starting June 12.

Jill Harmacinski
CNHI News Service
— Editor's note: Near simultaneous explosions at the Boston Marathon finish line yesterday killed 3 people and wounded scores more. Reporter Jill Harmacinski was there to help cover the race for The Eagle-Tribune in North Andover, Mass. The following is her first-person account of what happened.
BOSTON, Mass. -- We were looking for our friends, first-time marathon runners Christian Breen and John Brien, when we jarred by the first loud boom. Then we heard the second boom and saw white smoke mushrooming over the Boston Marathon finish line.
It sounded like cannons or guns going off. I went toward the explosion, as my friend, Lisa Driscoll, stepped back. We were 65 feet away - at the most - when two bombs went off at 2:50 p.m. yesterday at the marathon finish line. We had media passes and were inside the crowd-control fencing, standing right on Boylston Street.
Runners who had made it past the finish line turned around to see what was happening. Volunteers, security, police and paramedics all started running toward the smoke.
Medics started running out of a nearby medical tent with wheelchairs. Those people are trained to hydrate runners and massage exhausted muscles - not pick up dismembered bodies, Lisa later noted.
A medic pushing a wheelchair was sprinting away from the explosion site. In the wheelchair was a bloody runner who had half his leg missing.
Two other women covered in blood were also quickly pushed into the medical tent. A blood-covered man on a gurney was loaded into an ambulance.Another runner, a man wearing only black shorts, came calmly down Boylston Street. He was covered in blood splatter. People kept asking him if he was OK, but he just kept running.
Cruisers, ambulances and firetrucks started racing into the area. A runner ran up to police, saying he was trained in "mass casualty" incidents and telling them he knew what to do.
A sense of panic started creeping through the crowd. People were trying to call family and friends, but there was no cell phone service. Marathon workers were trying to calm people and keep the crowd behind the portable metal fences.
We kept taking pictures and video, tweeting as much as we could. Warning texts and tweets started pouring in from police and firefighters we knew telling us to "beware of a secondary explosion" and "stay clear of trash cans." And finally, a grim note from a great source: "Get the hell out of Boston now."
We had parked at the Boston Common garage, and slowly we started moving that way. Our cell phone batteries were dead. People were bewildered and confused. A man was desperately trying to reach a loved one on his cell phone. He kept yelling "Julia, Julia, Julia!" But nobody was on the other end.
We stood for a minute on Newbury Street, trying to figure out if we should stay or go. And we worried about our friends, Christian and John. We had followed them through the race through text alerts provided by the Boston Athletic Association. We didn't think they'd made it to the finish line yet. And we prayed we were right.
On Newbury Street, a woman, wrapped in a silver marathon blanket, sat in a wheelchair crying. She'd finished the marathon and made it away from the explosion. She wanted to call her mother. But her cell phone was dead, and she couldn't remember her mom's cell phone number. A marathon medic stood by her side, telling her she was going to help her find her family.
As we stepped onto the Common, a stranger came up next to us. He told us he was so happy we were OK.
"I was standing right behind you two on Boylston Street," he said. We all smiled.
We were almost to the car when Lisa remembered a marathon security guard whose name badge said "Joanna."
About 30 minutes before the explosion, we had tried to move up Boylston Street and get closer to the actual finish line. We had stood right at the finish line once before, several years ago, when my sister Joan ran the marathon. But this time Joanna, the security guard, stopped us and pushed us back. "No press past this point." she said.
"She probably saved our life," Lisa said.
Back at the car, when we were able to recharge our phone, we were flooded with messages. We never got to see our friends finish the race yesterday, but thanks to Facebook, we knew fairly quickly they were OK.

Appearance – This is a clear light orange in color with a nice, white, lasting head.
Smell – The big pine and monster orange rind are big but balanced at the nose and the malts are all but absent.
Taste – The giant hops make it righteously to the taste and the malts are again faint. The beer itself is not balanced but very hoppy.
Mouthfeel – This isn't even medium in the body with some strong drying throughout.
Drinkability – Hopheads will love this beer but it is probably too much for the general public.

Aromas of floral hops and a doughy malt backbone.
Flavor is loaded with flowery, American hops and orange with a great malty balance. Finishes with a gentle hop bite.
In the end, it manages to have great hop flavor minus any harsh or unwanted bitterness. Not the best but respectable and graceful.

with lazy but visible carbonation. There is a
scant head with little to no lacing.
S: Nice citrus nose
T: Fruit juicy but also fruit juicy slick.
There is a bitterness at the swallow but
not so strong and unfortunately lingering.
M: This IPA is slick on the pallet going down, a
little too sticky.
D: Not sturdy enough for me, just better than
your average IPA. A beautiful beer.

From BeerAdvocate Magazine Volume II, Issue VI:
The marketing is straightforward, they took the IPA style and made it bolder or American-style, and at 7.0 percent it's nearing the border of Double IPAs but not quite there. Clear weathered golden color, bright clarity and excellent head retention from the two-fingered head that crowns the top of this brew. Big time citric hop aroma and tangerine and clementine juice, with mint and herbs in the back of the nose. Impeccable smoothness from a deep, underlying carbonation that is most likely being slowed by a ton of hop oil. Medium body. So much hop flavor to go around, thankfully the bitterness does not kill the taste buds. Orange zest and spearmint come to mind. Sure the malt is there, a solid biscuity and slightly sweet foundation that is covered with hop flavor. Slightly dry and bitter finish with a faint earthy, herbal flavor.
Odell Brewing does a superb job brewing this beer, this one gives most West Coast IPAs a run for their hops. A must try for any hophead out there.

A - Golden color, fluffy white head, moderate carbonation, clear with a bit of particulate matter.
S - Lots of hop aroma, citrus and sweet floral. A bit of sweet malt comes through at the end and a touch of toastiness.
T - Almost exactly like the aroma, the hops come on strong but never become overwhelming, they are in balance with the malt. The hops are a nice combination of citrus and floral, with makes it a bit more complex than a lot of the straight forward citrus bombs that a lot of AIPAs are. A little sweetness from the malt finishes things up.
M - Moderate body which is balances nicely with the higher alcohol content and hop presence.
O - This is an excellent AIPA. It isn't just a hop bomb although there are a lot of IBUs there, nor is it super bitter, there is a lot of flavor and aroma from these hops. The hops are a nice combination of varieties which adds some nice complexity. The malt does take a back seat, as it should in an IPA, but it is there and lends a nice amount of body to make this IPA, which is a bit on the strong side, perfectly balanced. Will definitely be looking for this one again.

12oz bottle pours into my glass a crystal clear golden orange hue with a solid inch of creamy white head that sticks around and leaves some sticky lacing. Lots of active carbonation. Aromas of citric green hop resins arise out of the glass with notes of grapefruit and tropical fruits. A mildly sweet crystal malt in the background with just a touch of caramel.
First sip brings a somewhat sweet crystal malt body upfront that moves into some citrusy, medicinal hop flavors. Notes of grapefruit, green hop resin and toasted grains follow. Flows down with a nice bitterness on the end and finishes a tad dry.
Mouthfeel is medium bodied with a smooth creaminess as the brew goes down. Good, sturdy body for an IPA. I'm just personally not a fan of the hopping that was done on this one. It could've used a bit more malt backbone as well. . Thanks to BitterBill for tossing this my way.

A - Pours a slightly hazy honey color with two fingers of white head. Head has decent retention and leaves a lot of lacing.
S - Big, juicy bouquet of fruit, mostly tangerine and other citrus, along with a touch of honey, some bitter grapefruit rind and a faint amount of malt. Excellent beginning.
T - Similar to smell with more bitterness coming through in the taste. The bitterness doesn't really linger for long, but is definitely a big component of the flavor. Nice malt presence to balance the hops.
M - Medium, slightly oily mouthfeel. Pretty clean finish with only faint bitterness lingering.
O - Between this and Myrcenary, Odell has a very impressive lineup of fruit-forward (i.e. not piney) IPAs. I wish they would distribute in Michigan so I could have these more often.

12 oz bottle, best by 6/22/07. Pours a slightly hazy golden orange with a frothy dense white head that quickly goes to a thin film that leaves some lacing.
The aroma is piney hops with some melon and biscuity malts.
The flavor is sweet bready malts and some melon leading to a decent piney, peppery hop finish that lingers some in the aftertaste. The mouthfeel is is medium to full bodied with some slightly sharp carbonation and sticky hop resin.
Overall, an excellent showing by Odell. This is a well done IPA, not quite top tier, but still very enjoyable.

Vitt declined to say whether Strief would return at Atlanta on Thursday night. The Saints filled the open roster spot with tight end Michael Higgins from their practice squad.

Leo van Lier
I was chocked to hear about Leo's passing. I had the privilege to be his student and to "take home with me" some of his brilliant ideas. He was a great scholar and a brave thinker who trully taught how to "think out of the box" and made it easy to tie it with our familiar "box" for better understanding. He was a good man and an excellent teacher.

A radioman and sailor aboard the USS Bayfield during the D-Day invasion of Normandy, Jones graduated with his bachelor's and master's degrees in agricultural science from Auburn University. He went on to serve as an extension agent for Auburn in the Walker County area, then as a 4-H coordinator in Walker County from 1954 until 1982, training more than 25,000 young people during his career. In 2007, he was nominated for the National 4-H Hall of Fame after producing more than 100 district, state and national 4-H award winners. For many years, Dempsey continued to offer agricultural wisdom to locals in "Over the Fence," his weekly column to the Daily Mountain Eagle. His kindness and service are well-remembered by past and present Walker County 4-H members.
Jones was an active member of the Sixth Avenue Church of Christ, where he served as an elder for more than 45 years.
Known affectionately as "Pop" to all who met and loved him, he will long be remembered for his extensive Volkswagen collection, his sense of humor, his enthusiasm for service, his love for young people, his passion for Auburn University, and his adoration for the Savior.
Jones was preceded in death by his siblings, Roy Jones of Caledonia, Miss., Cecil Jones of Columbus, Miss., Raymond Dowell Jones of Decatur and Helon Jones and Gene Jones of Lamar County.
He is survived by his loving and faithful wife of 66 years, Ruth Wheeler Jones; his three children, Rachel Thomason (Tom) of Birmingham; Debbie Morris (Richard) of Jasper; and William Dempsey "Bill" (Twyla) Jones Jr. of Birmingham; his sisters, Josie Jones Wheeler of Tuscaloosa, and Willie Mae Taggart of Vernon; his grandchildren, Lindsay Walker (Scott), Dr. Brad Morris (Jennifer), Kristin Pratt (Neil), Beth Soechting (Dustin), Jordan Jones (Annie) and Juliana May (Jordan); five great-grandchildren; and numerous nieces and nephews.
All who knew Dempsey were blessed by his life and will miss him terribly.
Thanks go to Celeste, Brandy and the entire local Veteran's Administration staff for their care of Dempsey during his later days.
Visitation will be from noon until 2 p.m. today, Feb. 23, 2013, at Sixth Avenue Church of Christ. Funeral services will be at 2 p.m. today at Sixth Avenue Church of Christ. Burial will follow at Oak Hill Cemetery. Levi Sides, Bill Jones (son), Brad Morris (grandson), Jordan Jones (grandson), Neil Evans and Patrick Morrison will officiate.

12oz bottle, best by 7/28/2014, poured into a FFF pint glass 7/18/2014.
A- Clear amber body with a one finger tan head, good retention, leaves a fuzzy film on top, lots of lacing all around.
S- Sweet toffee malt, earthy noble hops, some caramel, crisp banana bread, yeast. Sweet but not cloyingly so and in a refreshing way.
F- Toffee, caramel, hint of raisin, a little banana (hence banana bread in the nose), earthiness, and the signature GLBC yeast flavour. This is excellent, not perfect but just about as outstanding as any brewer can make a Vienna lager.
M- Medium bodied, refreshing and crisp yet smooth and silky at the same time. They did a great job on this one. Very drinkable, no real effects of the ABV on the flavour at all.
O- Excellent take on the style, as I would expect from GLBC and their tradition of brewing excellent lagers. Why I never reviewed this before, I'm not sure, but I ought to get around to reviewing their other offerings as well!

Just a wonderful beer and supremely drinkable beer.
Crystal ruby-amber with a nice but thin off white lace.
Smells of sweet toffee, toasted grain, hex nuts.
Tastes of tremendously malty toffees and caramels. Nutty.
Mouthfeel is sweet and chewy. Oh so rich and creamy. Mmmm
Drinkability couldnt be any better.

Pours a solid amber color with mild clarity, a touch of haze in the middle of the glass. Light beige head that doesn't last too long and doesn't leave much lacing either. Crisp aroma, almost with some fruit tartness initially; light berries and apple skins. Lightly toasted caramel grains abound in this one, with a slightly floral underbody. The first sip follows through with the crispiness of the aroma, headed by an array of toasted grains and malts, light caramel and toffee flavors. Some mild apples and raisin fruitiness comes through and sweetens things up just a bit. Slight hoppy taste in the background, a tiny floral essence, but they never get very bitter, maybe only a touch to balance the malt sweetness. Tasty biscuit-like yeast in the finish; thin body, medium-high carbonation, with a crispy, clean, refreshing finish.
Wow, this beer really surprised me, although I shouldn't be surprised - I've been very happy with most of GL's brews. Nice mix of hops and malts, not too overpowering on either. Great, crisp finish all around, and certainly one of the best lagers to cross my palate in some time.

Vienna style lagers are a great style of beer - a little sweeter than your average ale, but still completely drinkable and full of flavor. Elliot Ness is the best that I've had in the style: sweeter malts are used, but absolutely no sugar rush and still a solid bite of hops. Smell, carbonation and appearance are attractive and spot on. What really sets this beer apart though is its balance and drinkability. There are too many good craft beers that are good, but become unattractive or even undrinkable after 2 or 3. However with Elliot Ness you could happily drink it all night long.
Price is very reasonable as well. If you haven't tried the style and happen across a sixer or even a case I highly recommend giving it a try.

Good full bodied Amber lager
Very distinct amber maltinessin both taste and smell
Good alcohol content but not too much which makes it a good session brew
Not my favorite but it is a good beer to drink
Best served closer to room temperature due to the alcohol content

Poured from a bottle. Freshness date 01/07/09.
A: Dark coppery amber color. Clear with subtle carbonation present. Nice fluffy one finger head. Immediate fine lacing. Good head retention throughout
S: A roasty, sweet and sour smell. The sweet and sour is almost reminiscent of lactose.
T: Starts with a breadiness and goes into sweeter tangy finish. It has a nice sweet, dry aftertaste - makes it feel crisp and drinkable. There is some hop bite but it is playing second fiddle to the malts. I can detect a nuttiness there too. Really tasty beer.
M: Medium bodied and creamy mouth feel. Carbonation is subtle and perfect.
D: I am new to lagers but if this is indicative of a Vienna Lager, I'm in! I could session this in a heartbeat. Very nicely done. Another cracking Great Lakes beer.

Poured from a 12oz. bottle into a pint glass.
A: Clear coppery amber color with an abundant foamy white head. Good retention and excellent lacing all the way down the glass.
S: Light caramel malt and sweet brown sugar. Perhaps a complex but light hint of hops if you look for them.
T: The first thing on the palate is a complex but even malty sweetness that stays together well as it washes over the tongue. The sweetness is predominant but not overpowering and very even in flavor. There are some bittering hops that bring everything close to balance - but still allowing for the sweetness to be primary. The finish is the best place to catch the hops - just a bit citrus in the linger.
M&D: Mouthfeel is moderate with and creamy. The carbonation is moderate and persistent. The finish has a bit of levity to it that makes you want to take another pull. I think I could drink these all day! Very nice.

Hmmm, I thought I bought a sixer of Edmund Fitzgerald. How'd this one get in there? Anyway....
Bottle says "Jul 9, 04"-Oops! Pours an orangish-amber color. Nice foamy head that leaves a little lace. I'm not crazy about the smell, but it's not obtrusive. Taste is all caramelly malt-very nice and warming on a cold rainy night-with a bit of hops that provides some balance. (This one actually tastes a little like Rogue's Dead Guy, although I like that one better.)
Even though I'm not an amber lager (or ale) type of guy, this one is pretty darn good (glad I have another bottle), and the fact that it's past due doesn't seem to have affected the taste (but maybe the smell). If only it was available locally...

Presentation: It was poured from a brown 12oz bottle into a pint glass. It was sampled on 6-4-09 and had a best before date of 6-19-09 on the label.
Appearance: The body has an inviting deep reddish amber color with very good clarity. On top there is a modest sized, just off white colored head that hangs on well and makes some nice lacing on the glass.
Smell: The aroma has some sweet and toasted malty character with light mineral and leafy hop notes.
Taste/Mouth: Its flavor has a sweet malty and toasted bread base with notes of brown sugar, caramel and toasted malt. Hop flavor is solid and matches the sweetness of the malt with earthy, leafy and mineral flavors and balanced bitterness. The finish has toasted grains and hops fading slowly off the tongue. Its texture is smooth and slick with soft carbonation.
Notes: This is an outstanding Vienna Lager!!! The balance of sweet, toasty and hops is spot on. Well done Great Lakes!!!

About 100 hundred protestors gathered at the Jefferson County Courthouse, Tuesday, in opposition of the recent SCOTUS ruling which struck down Sect. 4 of the Voting Rights Act.
The ruling is likely to have heavy impact on the Beaumont Independent School District. In 2011, voters approved changing the makeup of the school board from 7 single district members to 5 single district members and 2 at-large seats. A map was drawn but was shot down by the Department of Justice.
Based on the SCOTUS ruling, entities like BISD who have had to go through pre-clearance with the DOJ may not have to do so anymore.
Critics of the protest say a second reason is a motion before the 9th court of appeals arguing that the court enforce it's order that all 7 board seats be up for re-election after redistricting.
If that ruling stands, three trustees would lose their seats in a November election: Woodrow Reece, Terry Williams and Zenobia Bush. They did not file to run because back in March they didn't believe they were up for re-election.
But three people did file to run: Linda Gilmore, Donna Forgas and Marcelino Rodriquez. Since Reece, Williams and Bush missed the deadline, the three others would automatically take their spots on the board.
At Tuesday's rally downtown, those who spoke to the crowd said this is manipulation of minority voting.
Members of the crowd spoke saying "We're under attack." Beaumont resident and rally organizer, Paul Jones, tells 12News minorities are under attack with the recent ruling because minorities feel they will not be fairly represented.
School board president, Woodrow Reece, told the crowd that BISD passed a $389 million bond. He said "We did this black and white and at the end of the day, the whites wanted to pull out. They (a group that supports the 5-2 plan) just want power. I'm not giving them power."
Board trustee Zenobia Bush also spoke to the crowd saying "I'm tired of being sick and tired. We're tired of it and we're not going to take it anymore."
Jones says the purpose of the protest was to raise awareness that everyone needs to write their local representatives about voting rights.
There were several people who support the 5-2 plan in attendance.
Attorney Michael Truncale tells 12News "We need to preserve our constitutional right. One person, one vote. We believe in the rule of law and it's the rule of law that has protected these fine people all these years."
The Beaumont ISD school district has until FRiday to respond to the 9th Court of Appeals.
The district must justify, by Friday, how it is going to abide by the court's previous order.

Go Cubs!
Okay I confess. I'm not watching the game. Game fever is something utterly, totally beyond me. Apparently I lack a few mirror neurons. Sports? Yawn. I dare you to make me comprehend football. Go ahead. Try. Many have tread that tortuous path and failed, my friend. Great minds have worked tirelessly to convey the rules, to communicate the strategy. The triumph. The back field in motion and the blitz.
But what they don't realize? Deep down inside my private tiny girl heart- my neurons don't CARE. They really don't. And I know you think that if only I let you explain The Game to me I would finally, miraculously, ecstatically get it! And paint my face red and blue, but. It's never going to happen.
Slow Cooker Stew Recipe with Buffalo Sausage
Need it meat-free? That's easy, Babycakes. Just use gluten-free vegan sausage. Or beans. Boom. Team Vegan.
6 cloves fresh garlic, chopped
1 large onion, sliced thin
4 medium carrots, chopped
4 cups thinly shredded green cabbage
4 medium Yukon Gold potatoes, peeled, diced
Sea salt and freshly ground pepper, to taste
2 14-oz cans Muir Glen fire roasted tomatoes- diced or crushed as you prefer
1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
1 teaspoon rubbed sage
1 teaspoon each of: dried basil and parsley
Hot red pepper flakes, shake to taste
5-6 cups organic broth, as needed
8 organic free-range buffalo sausages, sliced
Drizzle some extra virgin olive oil into the bottom of a Crock Pot or slow cooker and turn it on to High. When the oil is warm add the chopped garlic and onion; stir to coat. Add the carrots, cabbage and potatoes. Season with sea salt and pepper.
Add the canned tomatoes, balsamic vinegar, sage, basil, parsley, and hot red pepper flakes, to taste. Pour in enough broth to generously cover the veggies. (If you like more of a brothy stew add more broth; a thicker stew, add less.)
Add the sliced sausages to warm through (they usually are cooked; if the sausages you use are not cooked, add them in at the beginning). If you need to add more liquid, add some extra broth. Cover and heat through for another twenty to thirty minutes till heated through.
Serves 8.
Fabulous with my Pueblo Soda Bread or Sweet Potato Cornbread.
