Here's a method I use to keep nails — and squeaks — out of staircases I build on site. On a new-construction job, like the one shown here, it's a good idea to give the drywallers a heads up; they can cut the pieces that go on the bottom of the stringers and set them aside for installation after the stairs are finished.
I start by preparing the skirtboards, first fitting them in place. When transferring the locations of the treads and risers, I don't automatically copy the stringer's actual shape. Because the tips of a dimension-lumber rough stringer will naturally shrink, I make the marks on the skirt reflect the stringer's original shape, being careful to make the intersections of the treads and risers exactly 90 degrees. I also take care not to mark too low, so the parts don't bind and bow when I assemble them.
Next I use a Forstner bit and drill guide (www.rocklerpro.com) to drill a flat-bottomed hole where the tread noses will land, then rout the dadoes for treads and risers. I make the holes and dadoes 1/4 to 5/16 inch deep, and about 1/16 inch wider than the tread and riser stock so that everything fits together easily.
Using my basic router, I have to take two passes with a 1/2-inch straight bit to get the desired depth, and two more passes to get the right width. On an enclosed stair, one of the skirtboards has to be "gutted" — that is, the material behind the dadoes has to be removed all the way to the bottom edge. This allows that skirtboard to slide along the wall and into the finish treads and risers that have already been loosely installed into the dadoes on the other skirtboard.
With one of the skirtboards nailed to the wall (preferably the longer one) and the other clamped into position, I take measurements for the treads and risers. I cut them 1/8 inch short, then dry-assemble the whole stair.
Next I use a Kreg jig to drill pocket holes in the rough stringers — usually two holes at every tread and riser location. Having already done a dry fit, I'm ready to use glue; PL urethane has a long working time and fills gaps of up to 3/8 inch wide.
Armed with a bunch of shims and 1 1/4-inch screws, I work from the top down, gluing and screwing the staircase together. Anywhere I have a gap greater than 1/4 inch, I'll run in a 1 1/2-inch screw. The shims wedge the parts tight against the front edge of the dadoes, and the urethane glue expands to fill the voids. I also use 1 5/8-inch trim-head screws to secure the backs of the treads to the bottoms of the risers. Once everything is put together, I pack PL into any remaining voids.
By the way, it's a good idea to drill pocket-screw holes in the back of the bottom riser. This allows you to pocket-screw it to the wood floor before it gets covered with the tread.

As people have become more and more aware of the importance and dangers of indoor air quality, the popularity of air duct cleaning has increased dramatically. This increased demand for both residential and commercial air duct cleaners has led to a lot of contractors getting into the field that lack the proper training and experience.
It is vital that you routinely have your dryer duct cleaned. Without proper maintenance, compacted lint will prevent your dryer from working properly. In some situations, may even cause a dryer fire. Call us today!
Smoke coming back into the house? Has it been several years since you had your chimney cleaned? A chimney filled with creosote and soot build-up can become a real fire hazard. For peace of mind, Call Today!

Bak MSOA Theatre Department Presents THE BOY FRIEND BOOK This Weekend
Bak MSOA Theatre Department presents The Boy Friend Book by Sandy Wilson, with Music and Lyrics by Wilson, direction by Richard Valentine, and Music Direction by Doctor Randy Booth. The performances run tonight and Saturday, February 21 & 22, 7:00 p.m.
The Jazz Age lives on in this light, romantic spoof of 1920's musical comedy.
The setting is the French Riviera. Polly, an English heiress attending Mme. Dubonnet's Finishing School, falls in love with Tony, a delivery boy. Recalling her father's warning to beware fortune seekers, she poses as a working girl, unaware Tony is in fact the missing son of the wealthy Lord Brockhurst. Things get complicated with the unexpected arrival of Polly's father and Lord and Lady Brockhurst--but not to worry, a happy ending is in store for all!
The show's many memorable roles include the flirtatious Mme. Dubonnet, her boy-crazy students and Polly (the role which turned Julie Andrews into an overnight sensation). With its catchy tunes, period dances (including the inevitable Charleston) and winning sense of humor, THE BOY FRIEND is a sparkling, tongue-in-cheek 1920's romp.
The production also features Set Design by Wayne Steadman costume Design by Jack Pinkney.
Tickets are: Adults $15; Students $10. Reserved Seating in the Bak Mainstage Theatre. To order, visit www.BakMSOA.com.

Of the 33 elementary schools in HCPS, 8 have participated as pilot schools. Pilot schools are where each STE unit within the SySTEmic Project is taught one year prior to full implementation in the district (i.e., during the pilot year), enabling the pilot teachers to provide feedback on the STE unit prior to full implementation. The pilot schools represent a diversity of size, socio-economic status and ethnicity of the student body, and geographic location within the district.
Classroom and enrichment teachers who are involved in the project receive approximately 6 hours of professional development for each STE unit. Enrichment teachers at each school site in which the project is piloted are involved to support and enhance classroom instruction. Dr. Lottero-Perdue provides professional development for all pilot year classroom and enrichment teachers. SySTEmic Project master teachers—i.e., those who have taught an STE-unit in the pilot year and are interested in teaching teachers—provide professional development for the full implementation year.
In-depth interviews and teacher surveys during the first full year of the project (2009-2010) have helped project leaders assess the health of the project throughout implementation, and have served as a basis for educational research so that the lessons learned from this project can be shared with others nationally.
Funding sources for the project, thus far:
HCPS was also awarded $100,000.00 from the Maryland State Department of Education for their "Greengineering" Project (Principle Investigator: Mr. Mark Herzog, HCPS), which is related to, enhances, and extends the work of The SySTEmic Elementary Engineering Project in the 5th through 8th grades. Dr. Lottero-Perdue is involved in the Greengineering Project as an engineering education consultant.
Additional funding to support of the SySTEmic Project is continually being sought.

The "less is more" approach to rock lighting design is usually embraced by LDs working with bands whose touring budgets preclude grand statements. Yet lack of money was hardly the reason for the stripped-down look of Page & Plant's current Walking into Everywhere tour.
"When we first started out in February, the production manager, Roy Lamb, said I would only have half a truck for the lighting rig," explains LD Tom Kenny. "We were doing places like Turkey and Romania, so we really didn't want to have five trucks running around in those countries. We did it with two trucks, and the band loved it."
When it came time to put together the American leg of the tour, Robert Plant mentioned to Kenny that he would like it to look similar to Peter Gabriel's 1987 tour (designed by Jonathan Smeeton), which didn't have a lot of lights. "He said, 'Why can't we do it like that?' And that was fine with me, because we could have gone either way."
Because the band had originally wanted a set design for the tour's American leg, Kenny had come up with a few ideas. "I rang up Tom McPhillips [of Atomic Design] and he sent over some drawings of an Arabian tent. I had this idea of it concealing the stage and then lifting up during the show. But when I showed it to the band they told me they didn't want that--they wanted what we'd had in Eastern Europe."
The lighting rig is composed of a 40'x30' box with 96 PAR-64s, 33 LSD Icons(TM), 12 LSD WashLights(TM), ten 8-light Molestrips, four nook lights, two HMI 1200 truss spots, six Molemag color changers, and two Reel EFX DF-50 foggers. There are also 18 Molefays--five are on the five upright trusses, which are the only set pieces.
"We've had the cheapest union bills in every single building because they decided from the word go that they wanted it to be very minimalistic," says Kenny. "That's why the lighting rig was so small. If you save money someplace, Robert and Jimmy let you spend it someplace else. So I spentabout $8,000 on LSD's new laser-etched gobos for the Icons. I had a lot of custo m designs made, including the ZOSO logo, which they had requested."
The tour used a small stage in every building, which, added to the fairly small rig, made load-outs and load-ins go quickly. "It makes you think a bit more about the design when you've got less," Kenny says. "Normally, bands want you to light everything, and make sure that they're well lit and always in spots, but these two guys have gone a different way altogether, which suits them. It's more dramatic."
As the Icon board operator, Alastair Bramall-Watson helped Kenny flesh out the visual drama, until he left the tour to get married. "So I used the Icon tech, Jason 'Sarge' Hudgens, even though LSD wanted to send out another operator," Kenny says. "He was very nervous about it, but he wanted to do it, and he did a great job with it. Everybody gave me a chance when I was starting out, so I believe in doing the same."
During the show, Kenny operates an Avolites Diamond console and calls spotlights. "I like having another person out there, so you're always covered from both sides. Plus, I like the generic desk because it's more hands-on and if the show feels different on a given night, I can manually change cues; I couldn't do that on an Icon desk. With live music, you program as much as you can and wait until you're a couple of days into a tour to see how the audiences are reacting to it and let it settle."
Kenny also works closely with the tour's video director to make sure the farthest audience members have a good view of the band on the tour's three video screens. "The band is great to work with," Kenny says. "If you tell them it would be better if Robert stood in one place over another, they'll listen to you and be happy to do it. They're very behind the production, and they're on time every night, they're always innovative in their music, and they haven't gotten jaded.
"The best part about this design is we can go in anywhere and do a good show," Kenny continues. "We're not restricted by a set and it's just a four-piece band rather than the orchestras we had out last time. They wanted to keep the big looks for the big songs and they wanted new songs [from Walking into Clarksdale] to look really different. The band is such an anthem-type band and the audiences are practically delirious--especially during all the Led Zeppelin tunes--so it's very easy to make it look small and almost intimate, even in arenas. As long as it's dramatic and they have certain basics--like seeing the audience a lot--they're happy. They can play anywhere."
The tour has taken the band from clubs to arenas and even Kenny's own wedding reception, which took place in Ireland during a tour break in August. The rest of the tour's lighting crew includes crew chief Ian "Dobbo" Dobson, Icon programmer/technician Drew Findley, and dimmer technician Russell "Bits" Lyons. The tour will finish up in Europe this month.

If You Aren't Using Feature Toggles, Start… Now
Search for 'feature toggle' in Google, check out the results. The simple fact is that branching using a revision control system still has its place, but its place is not controlling when you release a feature to your customers. Feature toggles create a distinction between deploying your feature & making that feature available for use. They also remove the requirement that to disable a feature, or to go back to 'old behavior' you have to rollback your deployment to an older version of code. There are lots of other benefits too, as well as some challenges.
Bottom line though, if you aren't using these you need to really seriously consider whether they would be a benefit. If you control your software release & you operate a multi-tenant system, and you want to increase the amount of control you have around the features you release, you need to be using these.

I have very negative feelings with Trek TMP onwards actually, not just TNG and spinoffs.
Those are related to issues stemming from Roddenberry's ego, inflated from the convention days by fans. My opinions on his reactions to being sidelined and silenced after TMP and his "payback" with TNG are also on record. Nor is the choice of his associates and how closely they would "follow the boss" an accident.
Specifically answering your query:
In regard to Vulcans and Romulans (and by extention Humans and Klingons), the two enemy races in TOS are portrayed as dark mirrors of their respective opposite base cultures.
Romulans are the passionate warriors who embrace emotions and use them to great effect in their civilization while Vulcans deny these same base motivations. The clash of cultures (and similarities) is the interesting parts of their interactions.
Same for Humans and Klingons. The model of the historical Mongol is used as a basis for Human "civilized barbarism" to show the differences and clashing in cultures. The visual cue used for the Klingon appearance is not due to lack of "funding" but a deliberate stylistic choice to give the viewing audience a human analogy to connect with on more than just the visual aspect; but also the subtext that particular culture brings to mind. The confrontation between these cultures is the interesting part here as well, done to show how Humanity has "evolved", and at times not as much as some would like to believe.
It was unfortunate that this was jettisoned in TMP and onward in favor of other interpretations. The changes made for Romulans visually are also unfortunate since TOS heavily implied (an understatement) that Romulans were successfully infiltrating the Federation posing as Vulcans and conducting covert espionage. Balance of Terror all but underlines this in big neon letters invisibly written across the screen and was one of the salient plot points stressed.
It is not coincidence that the Roman culture was used as the subtext for Romulans either. It was a conscious choice to give the audience the clues it needed to mentally fill in the blanks about the culture. Miltiary oriented, advanced socio-politically and most probably a heavily caste system culture. These are simple subtext clues.
The changes to enemy cultures are expressed elsewhere by me on the unfortunate switch between TOS Romulan and Klingon cultures that took place in the TOS movies.
All this is not even touching the PCness of the '80's that invaded almost all of television (not Trek solely), but those are most certainly seperate issues and in which you seem to believe is my only gripe with post TOS/TAS Trek.
I never deny that those later series are Trek in the world's view. I just wave my hand and make them magically go away in my own mind is all. To me, they are as hand-in-hand with TOS Trek as Zim feels nuTrek is with Prime Trek, which is to say "in name only".
But it is still Trek to me.
Mostly. Sortof. Kinda. If I squint, while cross-eyed.
But that mostly just gives me a headache.
TMP Trek onwards just isn't my cup of choice.
I like coffee... black. Not Earl Grey Tea with sugar, Splenda, milk, lemon or whatever else is used to make it palpatible.
I suppose the same could be said for coffee, but then we'd have to go with whip cream, steamed milk, cinnamon/chocolate/caramel topping or whatever trendy crap is used to make it hip and cool and validate a $5+ pricetag per cup.
Does that meet the tune your avatar's pointed ears wished to hear?
"I go online sometimes, but everyone's spelling is really bad, and it's... depressing."
"Tact is just not saying true stuff. I'll pass"
"A sacrifice a day keeps Jesus away"

HIRED FARMWORKERS continue to earn less than all wage and salary workers, but the wage gap has narrowed. The median weekly earnings for hired farmworkers in 1994 were $238, an increase of 19 percent (5 percent when adjusted for inflation) from 1990; median weekly earnings for all wage and salary workers increased by 11 percent (a 2-percent decrease in real terms).
Hired farmworkers were more likely than all U.S. wage and salary workers to be male, Hispanic,
younger, less educated, never married, and non-U.S. citizens. Thirty-six percent of hired
farmworkers had less than a ninth-grade education, compared with less than 4 percent of all
wage and salary workers.
An average of 779,000 persons (15 and older) did hired farmwork each week as their primary job
in 1994. Though this represents less than 1 percent of U.S. wage and salary workers, hired
farmworkers account for about 30 percent of farmworkers (farm operators and unpaid workers
account for the rest). An additional 66,000 persons did hired farmwork as their secondary job
during the week.
THIS REPORT EXAMINES regional and structural patterns of farm labor use, and demographic and
employment characteristics of hired farmworkers, using data from the 1992 Census of
Agriculture and the 1994 Current Population Survey earnings microdata file. Additional
findings of the report include:

Dangerous driver jailed for crash that left 17-year-old without a big toe (From The Bolton News)
Dangerous driver jailed for crash that left 17-year-old without a big toe
8:45am Monday 24th February 2014 in Crime
A DANGEROUS driver who caused life-changing injuries to a 17-year-old pedestrian has been jailed for 12 months.
Spencer Aspinall was pinned against a wall after Nizamuddin Patel's Vauxhall Vectra span out of control, leaving him with serious leg injuries - and his right big toe had to be amputated.
He has since undergone numerous operations on his left leg, which was shattered in the crash on November 22, 2012, in Bolton Road, Atherton.
As well as jailing 36-year-old Patel, Judge Robert Warnock banned him from driving for four years after a jury at Liverpool Crown Court convicted him of dangerous driving.
He said: "You drove over a period of 20 minutes or so in a frankly disgraceful manner in a built-up area when it was dark and wet.
"You lost control and the car mounted the pavement. It struck a teenage boy who sustained exceptionally serious injuries."
He said he accepted that Patel, of Saltwood Grove, Bolton, was a hard-working man of previous good character. He added: "You seem to me to be an immature and inexperienced young man who had no awareness of the risk and danger that you present to others."

MichuSwansea City Position: Midfielder
Worst Player
Goal Choice
T. WalcottArsenal Position: Attacker
Team Ratings
W. Szczęsny
Sharp first-half double stop from Rangel stopped his side going in one down and made important from Michu and Tiendalli in the second half, when his team were desperately searching for the winner.
K. Gibbs
Not his best performance, with his usual raids down the left flank non-existent.
C. Jenkinson
Was his side's best attacking outlet in the first half with a couple decent deliveries from the right touchline but didn't take the chance to cement his good work after the break. Caught in possession for Dyer, with his mistake leading to Michu's second strike, consigning his team to defeat.
P. Mertesacker
Was sometimes found wanting in the aerial duel with Michu but otherwise defended very well. Partnership with Vermaelen is improving game after game
T. Vermaelen
Was rinsed by Dyer's pace though made a goal-saving challenge at the end of an excellent recovery run. Stepped forward to join in play well but could have done so much more often, especially with Swansea on the back foot.
As with Wilshere, enjoyed a much improved second-half showing. Forced to try pick up scraps out wide in the first half but found himself at the heart of the Gunners attacking forays in the second. Had a couple half-chances, but never tested Tremmel.
Off-the-boil the entire game, unable to thread together a disconnected Arsenal team that had no ideas going forward.
J. Wilshere
Struggled to assert himself in the first half, with his game bereft of its usual dogged qualities. A move up the pitch in the second half brought a better showing though still not up to the lofty standards he usually achieves.
T. Walcott
Wholly ineffectual out on the right flank in a game littered with bad first touches. A game to forget.
Y. Gervinho
First start for several weeks and it showed. Clearly isn't the front man that Wenger thinks he can become, fluffing two headed chances in the first half. Improved marginally after swapping roles with Podolski but still not at the level required.
L. Podolski
Was brought in off the left wing after about twenty minutes to provide the focal point that Gervinho couldn't. Link-up play improved but the Gunners were still woefully short of incision.
Swansea City
G. Tremmel
Made one save from Cazorla's well struck volley in a game where he was only ever required to make wholly routine saves. How he was kept that quiet is a mystery.
Àngel Rangel
Rarely tested down his flank and took the opportunity to bomb on where possible. Tested Szczesny early on, though had to reign in any attacking tendancies with his side's backs to the wall for the duration of the second half.
A. Williams
Marshalled defence superbly in what turned out to be a barrage of late Arsenal pressure.
Chico Flores
Wasn't fazed by Arsenal's chopping and changing of personnel up top and made a great last-ditch challenge to deny Giroud when it appeared the Frenchman was through on goal.
B. Davies
His afternoon was made easy buy the opposition's attacking deficiencies. Barely put a foot wrong all afternoon.
Sung-Yong Ki
Assured on the ball in the first half, playing a key part in Swansea's tactical frustration of the hosts, though the game passed him by entirely after the interval.
N. Dyer
ursts beyond the front man provided his team's most potent attacking threat though scant had the chance to do so, being entrenched in his own half after the break. Denied by a fantastic Vermaelen challenge when it looked like he was going to prod beyond Szczesny and his perseverence lead to Michu's second.
J. de Guzmán
Subdued performance all-in-all with little effect going forwards. Was on the back foot the entire second half but put in a good shift and was never found wanting tracking back.
Proved the match winner for his team with two composed, late strikes. Dropped into the hole and looked to link things up, looking a threat throughout. Swans fans behind the goal were convinced he gave them the lead in the second half, but his angled drive rippled the side-netting.
L. Britton
Effective screen for his back four though became overran as the game wore on. Intelligent display that saw him frustrate Arsenal at any time, by keeping his passing simple and switching play.
E. Shechter
Bright and lively in the first half, peeling off Mertesacker to give Arsenal's central-half pairing something to think about. Became increasingly isolated as the game drew on and was withdrawn after running himself into the ground.
T. Rosický
Brought on late on as Arsenal pushed for what would have been the breakthrough but barely got a sniff thanks to Michu's late double.
O. Giroud
With Arsenal desperately requiring a front man all afternoon, his introduction game too late. Denied when through on goal by a great Chico challenge, but otherwise found it difficult to adapt to the tempo of the game.
A. Oxlade-Chamberlain
Sent on to give his side the spark they had been lacking all afternoon but was unable to provide it.

I am 6'1 and weigh 193. I've been bulking for 2 weeks now, taking in around 300gs of protein/4500-5000 calories a day. So far I've put on around 3 pounds. I've been lifting seriously for around 2 years and have always been pretty defined, but now the definition is starting to dissappear with the bulking...my 6pack is starting to dissappear . My goal weight is to reach 205-210, which I hope to accomplish by the beginning of march. How long will it take for me to become cut again once I reached my weight goal if I stick to a strict exercise and diet regime? A few weeks?months? Also, will I be able to take creatine while cutting, or will it hinder the definition?
it all depends on how much fat you gain, and that depends on how much you over eat
one thing to note though is if you are gaining muscle and fat sometimes it looks like it's all fat and when it starts to come off again you realize you're not far off what you were
and of course this is why testing bf% is invaluable when bulking
even the handheld analyzers are good for this
how is your 6pack starting to dissapear with only gaining 3 lbs? that doesnt add up
ive gained like over 20 lbs and i still can see my abs ..
Started Weight - 130
Current Weight - 171 as of 2\18\05 WOOHOO

Shock Top Wheat IPA - Anheuser-Busch
Displayed for educational use only; do not reuse.
Ratings: 451 | Reviews: 106 | Display Reviews Only:
Reviews by TheSixthRing:
2.1/5 rDev -24.2%
Appearance - Pours a hazy, orange-ish amber with an off-white, finger width head. Decent retention. Thin, spotty lacing.
Smell - Aroma consists mainly of strong wheat notes, behind this a bouquet of citrus character and a touch of milkiness.
Taste - Wheat, corriander, and a trainwreck. The little bit of citrus hop bitterness this brew provides completely clashes with the witbier elements. The finish, like most all the Shock Top line, is a vacant, hollow shell of flavor. Finishes with a touch of heat... at 5.8%?
Mouthfeel - Light in body, with a fair amount of carbonation. A touch watery on the back end.
Overall - IPA? What a joke. I've had brown ales with more hop character than this. Just another beer trying to cash in on the IPA trend. This is the last of the Shock Top I'm ever trying. I can't do this to myself anymore. I expect them to be bad, and they're even worse than the already low expectations I have for them.

3.25/5 rDev +17.3%
From BeerAdvocate magazine Issue #62 (Mar 2012):
LOOK: Hazed gold
SMELL: Dried grass, orange peel, faint coriander, chalky, clean, somewhat absent
TASTE: Slick, semi-crisp, pulling orange peel, hop bitterness, muted coriander, grainy, bread crust, very dry
The whole entire character of the beer meets the nose and palate halfway, then just drops off like it was never even there. What is the reason for such a lackluster aftertaste? It had potential. Perhaps this beer is what differentiates between macros and what is going on deep in the craft beer world.

The beer pours a hazy golden-orange color with a white head. The aroma is fairly faint, with a hint of perfume and a little bit of wheat. The flavor is also fairly faint. There is some light fruit and some perfume, as well as a little bit of grass and some wheat. The flavor is fairly muddled, with nothing really standing out. Thin mouthfeel and medium carbonation.

Appears a nice deep copper with hints of apricot in the color with an off white creamy textured head billowing thick. Aroma has sharp citrus notes amongst at billowing white ale malt base with hints of coriander and sharp wheat. Aroma has a citrus notes with some eartlhy hop highlights hints of spice and yeast with some coriander go along. Flavor bitterness with pale malts citrus, spice notes in the finish not as bad or horrible as it sounds. Even bodied carbonation going on smooth, yet oily textured wtih chewy yeast body moments. Drinkability is decent not the base wheat IPA I've had or the worse...a decent shot at it really.

Big off white head quickly dies over a honey colored IPA.
Aroma is a light sweet grain with hints of oranges.
Light orange peel, some grains, and maybe a very light hops hint in the taste of this product.
A light bodied beer with little if any aftertaste.

A pint at the Yard House in Waikiki.
This beer appears a cloudy dark burnished amber colour, with one skinny finger of thin foamy white head, which beats it rather quickly, leaving some sparse streaky lace around the glass.
It smells of weak grainy wheat, a bit of muted citrus fruit, and little else. The taste is generic grain, to this offering's credit, but with very little to recommend its supposed wheat origins, with some weird pastry-like malt adding to the morass.
The bubbles are fairly sedate, the body an agreeable medium weight, and actually quite smooth. It finishes sweet, the muddled malt seeing but a mere blip in the way of meager hop offset.
Wheaty? Maybe. IPA? Hell to the no. But maybe that's not the idea - my girl just described this to the point of an AB marketing exec's wildest dream - as for me, it is neither all that wheat-like, or all that bitter. Target demographics, indeed.

Pours a cloudy, dark orange with a thick layer of foamy head that has decent retention. The nose has notes of straw, grapefruit, and orange peel. The flavor is light, straw-like, and citrusy with notes of orange peel. The mouthfeel is light to medium bodied, smooth, and a little crisp.
This is a rather hoppy beer for a pale wheat, but it comes across a little unbalanced. The malt character isn't built to withstand the citrusy, bitter hop character. It's a good idea, but I'd go for a Lil Sumpin Sumpin or a Saranac White IPA before I get another one of these.

Appearance: Ruby red. Pretty good in the lacing/foam categories.
Smell: Mostly caramel. Nothing terribly distinctive.
Taste/Mouthfeel: A bit sour, as if there is too much orange. It still does taste IPA-ish, I just think they tried to hit you over the head with citrus. Mouthfeel is a bit watery at the end.
Overall Drinkability: Easily Shock Top's best spin-off.

A - Pours copper with a thin white foam. Minimal lacing. Visible carbonation.
S - Noticable scent of fresh wheat. Nothing in the way of hops, but does have a fresh scent.
T - Flavor is of hearty wheat, some residual sugar, and a dash of citrus. Again, do not look for that hoppy bite; it isn't there.
M - Quite refreshing. Feels light, smooth, and easy to drink.
O - In short, the label is misleading. If you can deal witht hat it actually is a decent beer. Just understand this is a wheat ale, and not an ipa.

T: The wheat and citrus flavors seem forced--almost manufactured--but there is a hop bitterness that they play off surprisingly well, but the back end is a bit odd--just doesn't quite finish right
F: A bit thin, especially on back end with none of that oily stickiness that I like in an IPA
O: An interesting beer and one I'm glad I tried once--especially not a bad option if all you have are AB

Staff member injured after knifeman robs Eastbourne store
4:22pm Monday 13th January 2014 in News By Anna Roberts, Crime reporter
A knifeman threatened members of staff at a Tesco store - one person required hospital treatment.
Police are appealing for witnesses to an armed robbery at Tesco Express Stores, in Freshwater Square, Eastbourne, on Sunday.
Two men entered the premises just after 6am and threatened members of staff with a knife before stealing £400 in cash and a quantity of cigarettes. One staff member was slightly injured and received medical treatment.
The suspects are being described as white, aged in their late 20s to early 30s and wearing dark clothing and scarves.
Detective Sergeant Jo Benton said: "We are keen to hear from anyone who may have seen these men in the area or have any information to assist the investigation."
Call Sussex Police on 101.

Voya Financial FAQs
What is the origin of Voya Financial?
Voya Financial evolved from ING Group's U.S. retirement, investment management and insurance operations. ING Group purchased a number of U.S.-based companies between 1975 and 2000. In May of 2013, VOYA debuted on NYSE as the symbol for ING U.S., Inc. during its initial public offering (IPO). See our Company History for more information.
Where is Voya Financial headquartered?
The Voya Financial headquarters is located in New York City. The company has other major business sites in Atlanta; Braintree, Mass.; Des Moines, Iowa; Jacksonville, Fla.; Minneapolis; Scottsdale, Ariz.; West Chester, Pa.; and Windsor, Conn.
Why did the company change its name and brand?
We changed our name and logo as part of the process to become an independent, company after separating from ING Group. The corporate name changed on April 7, 2014 and there will be a phased approach to the rebranding of our various businesses through September 1.
Why did Voya separate from ING Group?
Since November 2009, ING Group has been in the process of a global restructuring program that includes the divestiture of ING U.S., now Voya Financial. The separation of Voya involved an initial public offering (IPO), which was completed in 2013, in which ING Group sold a portion of its ownership in the company, and will thereafter divest its remaining ownership interest over time. Visit ING Group for more background.
Will the company's strategy change now that it is a publicly traded company?
While the trading of our stock opens a new chapter in our history, the commitment we have to serving our customers and distribution partners remains unchanged. Together, our Retirement Solutions, Investment Management, and Insurance Solutions businesses comprise our "retirement readiness" strategy. We are grounded in a clear mission to make a secure financial future possible for all Americans — one person, one family and one institution at a time.
Why did you choose the name Voya Financial?
Our new name is the result of a very thorough process that took many months of research and testing. Voya is an abstract name coined from the word 'voyage.' We chose it because the name reflects momentum and optimism. It reminds us that a secure financial future is about more than just reaching a destination; it's about a journey to empowerment, and having positive experiences along the way.
Will your transition to Voya disrupt service? Do I need to do anything with my accounts because of your new name?
Our goal is to ensure that this transition is as seamless as possible for all our stakeholders. There is nothing for clients or others to do at this time. Even though we will have a new name, nothing will change with respect to customer accounts or policies, or the manner in which clients and financial professionals work with us.CN0219-15665-0316

Consolidated Planned Unit Development and Map Amendment - 1000 Connecticut Avenue, NW
(File Number Z.C. 06-13)
The Commission commented on the proposed action of the District of Columbia Zoning Commission to approve a planned unit development and related zoning map amendment for 1000 Connecticut Avenue, NW (Square 163, Lots 803-847). The proposed building is a commercial office building of twelve stories, approximately 134 feet high including a parapet. The Commission's authority on District zoning amendments extends to a proposed project's impact on the federal interest. The identified federal interest related to this project is the Height of Buildings Act of 1910.
The Commission advised the Zoning Commission that the proposed parapet feature may exceed the allowable height in the Height of Buildings Act. Section 7 of the Height Act states that, "no parapet walls shall extend above the limit of height." Therefore, the Commission recommended that NCPC staff and District Office of Planning staff work together to better define architectural elements such as a parapet, cornice, etc., that are used to embellish buildings.
See the Commission Action and Staff Recommendation
Consolidated Planned Unit Development and Map Amendment for Washington Gateway at New York and Florida Avenues, NE
(File Number Z.C. 06-14)
The Commission commented on a proposed action of the District of Columbia Zoning Commission to approve a consolidated planned unit development for the proposed mixed-use project known as Washington Gateway, which would occupy a 3.1 acre triangular site bounded by New York Avenue, NE on the North, Florida Avenue, NE on the South, and the right-of-way for Metrorail's red line on the east. The site lies just outside the northern boundary of the original L'Enfant City. The project includes a building that would provide hotel and residential space on the site's western side and an office building on the eastern portion of the site with retail along Florida Avenue. Entry to both buildings would be from a landscaped plaza in the center of the site.
The identified federal interests related to this project include the intersection of New York and Florida Avenues, identified as a Prime Site in NCPC's Memorials and Museums Master Plan; Florida Avenue, the northern boundary of the original L'Enfant City; the Height of Buildings Act of 1910; the Headquarters of the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives; the New York Avenue Metrorail station; and the Metrorail right-of-way. In evaluating this project, the Commission concluded that:
• By using measuring points along the elevated approach to the New York Avenue Viaduct over the Metrorail tracks, the project is inconsistent with the Height of Buildings Act of 1910.
• The height of the residential/hotel building raises security concerns for the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives Headquarters Building.
• The planned entrances to the parking garage and loading docks, which are immediately adjacent to the intersection of New York and Florida Avenues, would adversely affect this significant gateway to the city and diminish opportunities for locating a significant commemorative work in this area.
Therefore the Commission, recommended that the Zoning Commission, pursuant to its procedures, reconsider its approval of this project in light of its application of the Height Act in other cases and the Commission's concern about how the Height Act was applied here, and require the applicant to:
• Consult with the General Services Administration and the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco Firearms and Explosives to resolve security concerns.
• Modify the design of the residential/hotel building at the intersection of New York and Florida Avenues to improve the character of this important gateway and potential commemorative work site.

Rutgers left Tampa Thursday night with a win over South Florida in the Big East opener for both teams. The Scarlet Knights had some bad penalties and stalled drives, but they did not turn the ball over. South Florida, on the other hand, gave up the pigskin four times, the difference in a game that didn't see a long touchdown drive until the fourth quarter.
The score was 6-3 in favor of the Bulls at halftime. South Florida had two drives end in field goals in the first quarter and saw a 58-yard connection between quarterback B.J. Daniels and receiver Terrence Mitchell end in naught when Rutgers' Brandon Jones made a fantastic, tumbling pick of a Daniels pass at the 23-yard line.
The Scarlet Knights' Kyle Federico hit a 52-yard field goal as time expired in the half to put his team on the board. Rutgers took control in the third quarter by scoring 10 points off two South Florida turnovers in the first five minutes of the half. Mitchell muffed a punt after the Bulls forced a three-and-out on Rutgers' first possession of the half, leading to a tying field goal. Daniels was then intercepted by Jamal Merrell on South Florida's second play of the half. Gary Nova then connected with Mark Harrison for a six-yard touchdown to put the Knights up 13-6. Another Daniels interception stopped a South Florida drive into Rutgers territory at the end of the third.
South Florida put together the first lengthy offensive drive for either team at the beginning of the fourth quarter, going 69 yards in nine plays. Demetris Murray finished the drive with a one-yard touchdown burst with 9:48 left to play.
After an exchange of punts, Rutgers drove to the South Florida 3-yard line, where they settled for another Federico field goal to go up 16-13. Most of the yards on that drive came on a 45-yard hookup between Nova and Timothy Wright, who led both teams in receiving on the night with nine catches for 131 yards.
Jawan Jamison finished off the Bulls with a 41-yard touchdown run with 2:13 to go. The Scarlet Knights tailback made a nifty move to spring himself for his only score on a night he carried the ball 40 times for 147 yards.
Rutgers moves to 3-0 (1-0 Big East) on the 2012 season. South Florida falls to 2-1 on the year (0-1 Big East).

Almighty and Everlasting God, in whose Hand are the power and the government of every realm: look down upon and help the Christian people that the heathen nations who trust in the fierceness of their own might may be crushed by the power of thine Arm.

"The legalization of the termination of pregnancy is none other than the authorization given to an adult, with the approval of an established law, to take the lives of children yet unborn and thus incapable of defending themselves. It is difficult to imagine a more unjust situation, and it is very difficult to speak of obsession in a matter such as this, where we are dealing with a fundamental imperative of every good conscience — the defense of the right to life of an innocent and defenseless human being."

Rosanne's uncle died several months ago. He lived with Rosie's sister's family for the last three or four years and was a bigger pack rat than me. Over that time he had accumulated a basement full (no exaggeration) of tools and such. Vicki asked me to come over to help her price some of the stuff and said I could have anything I wanted. Since I didn't have my 24 foot enclosed trailer with me I just stuck to enough stuff to fill three five gallon buckets. I had a decent 4" grinder, some extra taps for chasing threads, a couple of grinding wheels and a good assortment of standard size nuts and bolts. There were a few other things, like several vice grips (real ones) some clamps and gear pullers but that was about it.
I found one box sitting on a shelf that I had to check out. When I opened it I found this.
I opened it up and found someone had recently put new batteries in it but they have poor record keeping.
I tested the voltage capabilites and it reads pretty good. I never had a chance to test
the ohms but the only resistance I ever find around here is when I ask Rosie to fix dinner.
The negative wire had become so brittle that it had cracked at every fold.
Under the tester I found a pair of antique ear wax extractors in like new condition.
After very extensive research, (I Googled "Grass Instruments") I found that Grass Instruments is more well known for medical equipment. Does anybody know anything about this company?
By the way, I did aquire a few hits on "Blue Grass Instruments". Now, let's see, where did I lay my mandolin! I love that music.

"In the heyday of sailing ships, all war ships and many freighters carried iron cannons. Those cannons fired round iron cannon balls. It was necessary to keep a good supply near the cannon. However, how to prevent them from rolling about the deck? The best storage method devised was a square-based pyramid with one ball on top, resting on four resting on nine, which rested on sixteen. Thus, a supply of 30 cannon balls could be stacked in a small area right next to the cannon. There was only one problem...how to prevent the bottom layer from sliding or rolling from under the others. The solution was a metal plate called a "Monkey" with 16 round indentations.
100ft east of "Castaway". Directly after the 3rd class used to gain the ledges east of The Sail.
4 bolts protect the face while wires and a rack to 1.5" supplement the rest. Rappel the route.
