Blockbuster calls in administrators leaving the St Albans and Harpenden stores with an uncertain future
2:49pm Wednesday 16th January 2013 in News By Zoe Forsey, Senior Reporter
Staff at Blockbuster stores in St Albans and Harpenden face an uncertain future after the film rental company became the latest high street casualty today.
The store is expected to remain open for now but a number of the chain's 528 locations will be closed.
Details of which stores will shut have not yet been released.
Blockbuster has units in London Road, St Albans and High Street, Harpenden.
Gift vouchers are still being accepted.
The rental company is the third high street name to fall into administration this month, following Jessops and HMV.

Residents are being encouraged to send emails to JCP&L about their Hurricane Sandy experiences in advance of planned meetings to be held with officials in January.
According to Bridgewater resident Neha Pallod Limaye, she attended the Board of Public Utilities meeting with JCP&L representatives Monday, and spoke directly to officials regarding the Facebook group she began with those unhappy with JCP&L's response, and a meeting she has requested with the officials to discuss changes to be made for the future.
"I spoke as a representative of our group and informed [JCP&L President Don] Lynch and the members of the BPU that we have come together to question JCP&L on what went wrong and what is going to be done to get it corrected going forward," she said.
But now, Limaye said, they need to focus on having a Q&A session with these representatives and officials in January.
Limaye had initially started a petition to get JCP&L out of Bridgewater, and also created a Facebook group to bring together people who were disappointed by the performance of the power company following Superstorm Sandy.
And from there, Limaye said, she put together an email to be sent to the three officials to request a meeting to get answers on management and future plans for dealing with these kinds of storms.
The director of communication for the BPU, Limaye said, has asked every member of the Facebook group, and any other residents, to send emails about their experiences, comments, concerns and suggestions to firstname.lastname@example.com.
"These emails will go in as a written report against the utilities' providers, and will allow BPU to assess their working further and move toward a change," she said.
Limaye said she also spoke to JCP&L representative John Anderson, who is working on a date for the session, to be set after all BPU hearings are complete, after Jan. 3. At that point, she said, she was told meetings will be set with township mayors and other officials, followed by others set with residents for a Q&A session.
"He's asked us to continue compiling our questions," she said.
Limaye said that those with questions specifically for JCP&L can contact Pat Stiles Esposito at email@example.com, and she will be compiling them for the representatives from JCP&L.
"We need to have these compiled and circulated to Anderson in early January," Limaye said. "I know this is going to be a slow process, but let's not let time dampen our drive to bring a change."
"I know for sure that we are being heard, people know us, the right people know we are here and are asking questions," she added. "Our movement is growing, let's continue our quest."

Pupils in brainstorming session for sculpture for new North Durham Academy
4:07pm Friday 18th January 2013 in News
A SCULPTOR today (Friday, January 18) visited an academy to help develop a new sculpture for the new campus.
Graeme Hopper was at West Campus, North Durham Academy in Annfield Plain, near Stanley, where he joined pupils from its feeder primary schools for an art session.
The sculptor has been commissioned by North Durham Academy to develop a sculpture for the foyer of new campus.
A brainstorming session looked at ideas for the sculpture, as well as for door furniture– in particular the signage for the girls and boys toilets and handles and push plates for classroom doors.
Art teacher Joanne Tait said: "It is a new campus and we want a sculpture for the foyer with the theme of new beginnings or new start.
"The building is futuristic and we would like that to be reflected."
The children taking part will be attending the school in the next (academic) year.
Mr Hopper, who is based in Hunwick, near Bishop Auckland said: "The academy has commissioned me to do quite a big piece for the foyer to portray the new academy.
"The children have come up with some great ideas and I will be taking those away with me to consider and work on."
Mr Hopper was accompanied today by students from Northumbria University. Pupils from four primary schools - Bloemfontein, Dipton, Catchgate and Burnhope – are also working on banner designs for the new academy campus.

Ilkley MP 'proud' of helping Forces staff into homes
9:00am Friday 24th January 2014 in Local news
Ilkley MP Kris Hopkins has spoken of his pride at the work being done to ensure servicemen and women and their families have priority access to homes.
Speaking at Communities and Local Government Questions, the Housing Minister told the Commons that the Government had published guidance strongly encouraging councils to prioritise Armed Forces members and their families for social housing.
He said: "As a former squaddie, I think this Government can be very proud of what it has done, whether it is the Help to Buy scheme, the covenant, or making sure that members of our Armed Forces who have been away from home still have a high priority on waiting lists."
The MP also revealed that the proportion of successful applications to erect wind turbines had fallen from 52 per cent to 36 per cent since new planning guidance for local authorities had been introduced. He said: "This Government have been robust in laying out guidelines relating to landscape, heritage and local amenities, and in ensuring that the Secretary of State can recover those applications to ensure the guidelines have been adhered to."

A soldier got quite the welcome as he moved his new home.
Spec. Andrew Wilson cut the ribbon on the house Saturday morning in Nolensville.
He was wounded by an IED while serving in Afghanistan in 2011 and loss both legs.
Spec. Wilson wasn't sure what his future would hold, but thanks to "Homes for our Troops," he and his family now have a brand new house adapted for Wilson's needs.
"When I woke up on October 20th, I look down, they told me both my legs were amputated. I had no idea where life was going take me. Where I am now, I wouldn't worry about thing," says Wilson.
As part of Saturday's homecoming, Wilson was reunited with the men he credits with saving his life.

Lisa Williams Wins USFWS Science Leadership Award!
February 11, 2014
Dr. Lisa Williams, the Branch Chief of Environmental Contaminants at the East Lansing Ecological Services Field Office in Michigan, is the 2013 recipient of the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service's Science Leadership Award. The national award recognizes a Service employee's outstanding practice and support of scientific activities that improve the bureau's knowledge and management of fish and wildlife resources.
"Dr. Lisa Williams is a scientist, leader and mentor," said Midwest Regional Director Tom Melius. "She infuses her work with a contagious passion for conservation. We are proud she has received national distinction for her accomplishments in the environmental contaminants field."
Dr. Williams served as the Assistant Deputy Branch Director for Wildlife Response - Houma Sector of the Deepwater Horizon Spill and as Branch Director and Deputy Branch Director for Wildlife and Environmental Assessment for the Michigan Enbridge Line 6B Pipeline Spill, the nation's largest inland oil spill. During those crises, Dr. Williams used ecologically, scientifically sound and acceptable practices and principles leading to effective and efficient response measures for both spills.

Supported Site University of Missouri-Columbia: Recruitment
University of Missouri-Columbia
Goals & Outcomes
Early Teaching Experience
Induction & Mentoring
Course Reform
Publications & Talks
- Visits to physics and education courses and recruiting posters have proved effective; almost all of the learning assistants for 2012-2013 and the new hires for Fall 2013 reported seeing a flyer, poster, or having experienced a course visit.
- Open house for recently admitted physics majors resulted in a new physics education student and PhysTEC scholar starting Fall 2013.
- Seven of the nine learning assistants have indicated a strong continued or increased interest in becoming a future physics teacher and have taken clear steps towards that career goal (e.g. enrolled in a degree program and/or enrolled in the "Teaching Physics" course). The other two are still considering teaching.
- It has proved more difficult to recruit education students into physics than to recruit physics students into education. Students who have not completed the prerequisite mathematics courses by the start of their freshman year find it nearly impossible to complete the necessary physics coursework in a reasonable timeframe.
- Recruiting high school students from Columbia is more challenging than anticipated; the students who are interested in physics also tend to be interested in leaving the area. We will target new schools in St. Louis and Kansas City next year.
- MU physics department funds open houses, and will continue to fund these recruiting activities.
- Classroom visits, other local presentations and website maintenance are no cost; these responsibilities will be continued by PI and/or new 0.5 FTE teaching professor (who will sustain the Teacher in Residence duties).
Lessons Learned
- Visits to other higher education institutions to recruit for the MS program need to be followed by an event at MU 3-4 weeks later. We lost the interest of students with whom we did not have immediate follow-up contact.
- A website (http://topteacher.missouri.edu) and a Facebook page (www.facebook.com/MUTOPteacher) were created for our TOP Teacher community.
- Recruiting posters and flyers advertising the TOP teacher program and degrees were created and distributed or posted. Many students have told us that this is how they discovered the program.
- Recruiting visits were made to four higher education institutions for the MS program ( http://smar2t.missouri.edu). Two new Learning Assistants for fall 2013 are from Lincoln University, and they working in their local Jefferson City schools.
- Three new open houses were held to advertise the physics major and new special opportunities for physics education. These were aimed at currently enrolled MU undergraduates, prospective transfer students from a nearby community college, and recently admitted high school students.
- We presented to ninth grade Missouri physics teachers involved in the NSF-supported "A TIME for Physics First" (http://physicsfirstmo.org/) professional development program. Teachers were encouraged to help recruit future teachers from their own pool of talented students. We have started to gather names of prospective MU students.

More than 150 students graduated this morning with the tools they need to start a career.
The ceremony focused on achievements and the future, highlighting several students for academic excellence.
Whether the grads received bachelors or associates degrees, the keynote speaker-- Illinois Senator Dave Koehler-- says they are leaving college with more than just a diploma.
"A person with a degree is less likely to be unemployed and on average will make 135 dollars a week more thank a high school graduate," said State Sen. Dave Koehler, (D) 46th Dist. "But really the most important thing about your degree today is that you've really demonstrated your ability to learn how to learn."
This is Midstate College's 125th year providing education in the Central Illinois area.

The Thomas More College community mourns the death of Dr. Thomas Dillon, 62, president of Thomas Aquinas College in Santa Paula, California. Dr. Dillon died in a car accident on Wednesday, April 15 while travelling on business with his wife in Ireland. Dillon's wife, Terri, remained in a Dublin hospital following the accident, and is expected to survive.
Thomas More College president Dr. Jeffrey O. Nelson released the following statement:
"Like so many others, we are saddened by Tom's sudden passing, but we also rejoice and celebrate his remarkable life. Tom will be remembered as a builder of the Church in America through his tireless labors to secure Thomas Aquinas College as a permanent institution of academic excellence and fidelity. He was a generous counselor to many of his peers in Catholic higher education. He was a champion of the revival of small-scale, Socratic liberal arts education, and was a gifted teacher and administrator. Our prayers are with his wife, Terri, his children, their spouses, and his grandchildren. I am confident that today he is enjoying the eternal love and peace of the Risen Jesus."
Thomas More College will offer a Mass for the repose of Dr. Dillon's soul on Monday, April 20, 2009.

"Executive Book Summaries"
I have been getting these summaries for years. They are concise, informative and interesting. Executive Book Summaries have enabled me to comprehend the core themes of the selected books effectively. Having listened to the summaries and then bought/read the hard copies later, I have come to the conclusion that some authors add lots of filler so they can market a big book. Executive Book Summaries spares you such wasted verbage. They make much better use or my commute time then listening to the radio, etc.
"High expectations...delivered"
Great for the business commuter. Very professionally done. Sometimes topics apply narrowly, such as to sales, or marketing, or CEOs, but I still find them interesting and hope to be able to apply much of the info I learn someday. Kind of like taking an MBA class on the way to work.

Sylvester Mutisya RN, NeuroSciences
Sylvester attended nursing school at the college of St Catherine's. While in school Sylvester mentored other students at St. Kate's, particularly those for whom English is a second language. Since receiving the Gloria Fox scholarship, Sylvester has graduated from nursing school and is currently working on our Neurosciences unit.
Mercy Paul RN, Care Management
When Mercy was eight years old, her father took her to a leper institution that was run by Mother Teresa. There, she saw men, women and children as outcasts of society. "I remember being gripped with a sense of sadness. I didn't realize how much this experience would shape my career." After this, Mercy felt a strong and lasting desire to help others. Mercy has completed a dual degree-MSN and MHA and is a supervisor in our care management department.
Aline Niehues RN, Surgical Intensive Care
Aline joined Regions in 2007 as a new graduate nurse; she is now a preceptor and charge nurse on our SICU. Aline is very passionate about working with surgical patients who have suffered a traumatic injury." "To see a patient, who could just as easily died, survive and later thank the doctors and nurses who worked together to save his life leaves me in awe of the work we do." As a member of the SICU's unit practice council she has actively been involved with policy updates and revisions. Aline is attending the University of Minnesota for her doctorate in nursing practice.

CATEGORIES OscarsWith 11 days to go before the 2010 Oscar nominations are announced, it's pretty clear that the Best Picture winner will be either 'Avatar,' 'The Hurt Locker,' or 'Up in the Air.' And after 'Avatar's' double win for best drama and best director (James Cameron) at the Golden Globes, there isn't that much hope for the other two.
But whether an 'Avatar' victory is a foregone conclusion or not, one wonders, where's the passion for it? By Oscar night, 'Avatar' will almost certainly be the biggest moneymaker in movie history, but it hasn't generated one-tenth the level of devotion as Cameron's 1998 Oscar winner 'Titanic.' In fact, beyond its dazzling special effects, how many people really like 'Avatar'? With 11 days to go before the 2010 Oscar nominations are announced, it's pretty clear that the Best Picture winner will be either 'Avatar,' 'The Hurt Locker,' or 'Up in the Air.' And after 'Avatar's' double win for best drama and best director (James Cameron) at the Golden Globes, there isn't that much hope for the other two.
But whether an 'Avatar' victory is a foregone conclusion or not, one wonders, where's the passion for it? By Oscar night, 'Avatar' will almost certainly be the biggest moneymaker in movie history, but it hasn't generated one-tenth the level of devotion as Cameron's 1998 Oscar winner 'Titanic.' In fact, beyond its dazzling special effects, how many people really like 'Avatar'?
There are no conversations about its performances, not a whisper of Oscar talk for its stars Sam Worthington and Zoe Saldana. As for its one established star, Sigourney Weaver, there's been far more discussion of her smoking cigarettes in the film than there has been about her actual work in it. 'Titanic,' despite Cameron's broadly dissed screenplay, received acting nominations for both Kate Winslet and Gloria Stuart, and it made Leonardo DiCaprio an international heartthrob.
As one who has been writing about the Oscars for four decades and obsessed with them long before that, I don't sense great passion for any of this year's leading contenders. Certainly, there are fervent supporters -- at least among critics -- for Kathryn Bigelow's 'The Hurt Locker' and Quentin Tarantino's 'Inglourious Basterds.' And for reasons having more to do with sociology than aesthetics, there are many avid fans of Lee Daniel's 'Precious.'
But on the Oscar passion scale, I'd give this year's race no more than a 5. It's even lower than last year's, which at least had the emotionally satisfying 'Slumdog Millionaire' propping up one of the decade's weakest Best Picture fields.
It takes more than one audience-pleaser to create a passionate Oscar race. Two years ago, there were four nominees with extremely ardent fans: 'Juno,' which had captivated teenagers and young adults with its hipster account of the complexities of teenage pregnancy; 'Michael Clayton,' a rousing Sidney Lumet-style morality/courtroom drama; 'There Will Be Blood,' which divided people in a melodrama vs. masterpiece debate; and the eventual winner 'No Country for Old Men,' perhaps the best modern Western ever made.
I've taken a look at the Best Picture races for the last 50 years and the best of them -- the ones that created the most passion among moviegoers and Oscar lovers alike -- were those with two or more broadly admired movies with seemingly equal chances of winning. The best movie did not always win, but it was in the race right up to the opening of the last envelope.
Many of the best races in the last half-century occurred between 1967, when 'In the Heat of the Night' beat out 'Bonnie and Clyde' and 'The Graduate,' and 1977, when 'Annie Hall' took down 'Star Wars.' Not for nothing has that period been deemed the Second Golden Age of Movies. In a period of great social change and political turmoil, Hollywood called on the best and brightest filmmakers to dramatize the sturm und drang, and the Oscar races of that period show that they delivered.
In 1969, Norman Jewison's X-rated 'Midnight Cowboy' was the favorite of the escalating counterculture, while 'Hello, Dolly!' was delighting an establishment still devoted to the Hollywood musical. They'd had their way the year before, when 'Oliver!' beat another Streisand musical, 'Funny Girl.' But 'Midnight Cowboy' won, and the next musical up for an Oscar was of a very different sort. It was Bob Fosse's Holocaust-themed 'Cabaret.'
That 1972 race was indeed a 10 on the Oscar passion scale. Though 'Cabaret' won eight Oscars, including one for Fosse as Best Director, the Best Picture award went to Francis Coppola's 'The Godfather.'
Two years later, in another 10-rated Oscar race, Coppola's 'The Godfather Part II' was up against Roman Polanski's 'Chinatown,' Bob Fosse's 'Lenny,' and Coppola's other 1974 masterpiece, 'The Conversation.' Coppola won one, lost one, when 'The Godfather Part II' got the call.
That second Golden Age began to wane in the late '70s, when the studios shifted their dependence from directors to marketing experts, and the effects of that showed in the 1979 Oscar race. Again, Coppola and Fosse had two of their greatest movies on the ballot -- Coppola's 'Apocalypse Now' and Fosse's 'All That Jazz' -- but the winner was Robert Benton's divorce drama 'Kramer vs. Kramer.'
I was backstage that night and remember Dustin Hoffman, who'd won Best Actor for 'Kramer,' mocking entertainment journalist Rona Barret for having dismissed 'Kramer' as "a soap opera." I love Hoffman, but Barret was right, and the soap opera's win did not bode well for future Oscar races.
The next year, Robert Redford's very ordinary 'Ordinary People' beat Martin Scorsese's masterwork, 'Raging Bull,' as well as David Lynch's 'The Elephant Man' and Michael Apted's 'Coal Miner's Daughter.' Looking back, I'd imagine most people would agree 'Ordinary People' wasn't among the three best films on that ballot. But the possibility of 'Ordinary People' beating those films created intense interest in the race, and with intense interest comes even greater disappointment.
For sheer excitement, it's hard to beat the 1981 race which included Steven Spielberg's 'Raiders of the Lost Ark,' Warren Beatty's 'Reds,' Mark Rydell's 'On Golden Pond' and Hugh Hudson's 'Chariots of Fire.' There was political passion for 'Reds,' immense nostalgia for 'Golden Pond's' geriatric stars Henry Fonda and Katharine Hepburn, and fresh chills for the great thrill-ride that was 'Raiders of the Lost Ark.'
In my memory, no other Oscar race was as unpredictable, and that was true throughout the show as major awards were spread among the four leaders. 'Reds' got an early edge, winning a supporting actress award for Maureen Stapleton, before Fonda and Hepburn won the lead actor awards, followed by Beatty winning for Best Director. Who would it be, 'Reds' or 'On Golden Pond'?
When Loretta Young opened the envelope and announced that 'Chariots of Fire' had won Best Picture, every writer in the press room -- including myself -- threw out our leads and started over on our Oscar stories.
That was the last Oscars race I would rate a 10 for passion. But we've had some 8s and 9s since. The 1989 race was unique because Bruce Beresford, who directed the eventual Best Picture winner, 'Driving Miss Daisy,' was not even on the Best Director ballot. The winner there was Oliver Stone, whose 'Born on the Fourth of July' was the odds-on favorite to win the big prize, as well.
In the last dozen years, the most passionate Oscar races were those driven by controversies. Spielberg's 1998 'Saving Private Ryan' had been considered a sure Best Picture winner ever since its July release, but in the weeks leading up to the Oscar show, John Madden's 'Shakespeare in Love' began to build momentum. In Hollywood, there was a furious insiders' war going on between 'Ryan's' promotional backers and then-Miramax head Harvey Weinstein, who had waged a furious campaign for 'Shakespeare.'
In the end, there was another split decision at the top. Spielberg won for Best Director, but 'Shakespeare in Love' was named Best Picture. I was on the 'Shakespeare' side of that debate -- I thought Spielberg had damaged 'Ryan' with the mawkish framing device he used for the opening and closing scenes -- and I still believe the right film won.
The Ought Decade produced some strange Oscar scenarios, beginning with the split decision of 2000 when Ridley Scott's 'Gladiator' won as Best Picture while Steven Soderbergh was named Best Director for 'Traffic.' Passions were heightened by the presence on that ballot of Ang Lee's 'Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon,' the most popular foreign language to ever play in U.S. theaters.
There was another split in 2002 when fugitive pedophile Roman Polanski won the Best Director prize for 'The Pianist' while Rob Marshall's musical 'Chicago' won Best Picture.
Certainly, controversies create interest and, for the fan bases, a lot of passion, but the 2005 race that came down to 'Brokeback Mountain' versus 'Crash' takes the prize. Both movies had throngs of admirers and detractors, but there was a difference. 'Crash's' detractors thought it was a bad movie unworthy of consideration, and their objections have not faded yet.
On the other hand , no one argued that 'Brokeback Mountain' was a bad movie. There happened to be a lot of people -- the majority of Americans, if polls on same-sex marriage are an indication -- who didn't like the idea of a sympathetic movie about a gay couple. For all the talk of Hollywood being a liberal bastion, enough Academy voters felt the same way to stop it from receiving their biggest honor.
There's not much controversy surrounding contenders this year, though 'Avatar' will be attacked hard and often as the Oscar show nears. The critics' favorite movie is 'The Hurt Locker,' but they have had their say with their own awards; and because of the movie's dismal box office performance, it is not generating any support in Hollywood -- let alone any passion.

Ship seized for drugs to be sunk SaturdayThursday, June 4th, 2009
Palm Beach County is working with Broward County officials to sink the newest artificial reef in the area, the 165-foot Miss Lourdies.
The cargo freighter, seized by Customs in Miami last summer after 154 kilos of cocaine was found in a steel compartment inside, is scheduled to be scuttled in 140 feet of water south of Boca Raton Inlet at the Palm Beach/Broward county line.
The ship will be about a mile off the coast. If the sinking goes as planned, the ship's wheel house will be about 100 feet below the surface.
No taxpayer money will be spent to sink the ship, other than the time environmental officials spent organizing the artificial reef deployment and obtaining permits.
The cost of cleaning, towing and sinking the ship is being covered largely by community contributions made through Daniel Fasano's Miracle of Life Foundation (www.miracleoflifefoundation.org).
After Fasano became a certified diver in 2006, he was diagnosed with leukemia. During his illness, Fasano created the foundation to pursue the sinking of the Miss Lourdies as an artificial reef.
For boaters and divers wishing to watch the ship go down, preparation will begin around 10 a.m. Saturday. The sinking is scheduled for noon.
Keep in mind that strong winds or stormy weather can cause a ship sinking to be delayed or postponed to another day.

In a recent interview with the German publication Die Welt that was passed around a lot this weekend, RIM CEO Thorsten Heins said he'd be open to licensing BB10 to other manufacturers.
Here's what Heins said when asked about licensing BB10. Keep in mind this is a translated text using Google, so it's a little rough:
Before you licensed the software, you must show that the platform has a large potential. First we have to fulfill our promises. If such proof, a licensing is conceivable.
That makes sense. RIM prefers to try out BB10 on its own devices before deciding if it wants to let others have it too.
It's also not the first time a RIM exec has said the company is open to licensing BB10. That option has apparently been on the table for months now.

Does it matter how far from the hub the magnet and sensor are placed? Doesn't that distance effect the speed reading?
No, the speed reading is independent of magnet position on the wheel. The sensor does not register how fast the magnet is going by; it only counts the revolutions the wheel makes over a given period of time. Using that information combined with the wheel circumference it can accurately calculat ...

If you use manual mode to set a fixed shutter and aperture, you can still use auto-ISO. Currently there is no way to set exposure compensation on how the camera decides which ISO value to pick. Definitely a nice to have for me too.dear firmware fairy @ Canon, here are my three wishes:
* EV +/- correction also working in "M" mode
What do you mean by this?
Oh, I see what you mean. So when shooting in manual and auto ISO the camera always shoots for dead center exposure? That's interesting, I didn't know that. I don't use auto ISO since the upper limit is only 3200. It would be nice if we could change that.

1.38/5 rDev -23.3%
355ml can, a one-off, single sub-twoonie purchase (a rarity around here, let me assure you of that) at the most local Liquor Depot to me.
This beer pours a clear, pale golden glow, with one fat finger of deflated puffy, foamy off-white head, which leaves a few thin streaks of lace around the glass as it beats it out of town.
It smells of sweet, adultered pastry malt, diluted nail polish (all the better to help one choke it down, I gather), a bit of freshly laid paint, and very anemic dusty, musty, um, er, 'hops'. The taste simulacrum is that of a sickly, overly saccharine day-old breadloaf smack to my balls, the subsequent recoil causing me to gag (or is it the other way around? Who the fuck cares). Anyhoo, the lipstick/acetone factor here is high, indeed, and should come with a damned nanny state sticker on the can.
The bubbles are in the witness protection program, or something, and good for them, the body a propped-up medium weight, one big-ass teetering house of cards, that. And the smoothness - sort of beside the point, doncha think? It finishes with a hollowing of the overwrought sweetness, which is no real treat, but still.
Murp. Well, nothing expected, nothing gained. This is getting crunked juice, and nothing more. A lack of discerning taste buds would be the least of your pre-reqs for this sad little gag-fest. Not too sure about the provenance of this vis-a-vis the Name Tag Lager on this site, but one can't be too careful in sussing out potentially offensive new ways of presenting the same old shit.

Checking around, I found some more new Minhas cans. Buying a six pack to add another can for my collection, and to pass some on to fellow can collectors.
This beer pours out of the can clear, yellow golden color and a short layer of white bubbles, (not really head, or even foam). No lace since the bubbles were gone by the time I had finished emptying the contents into my glass.
It smells sweet, and sour, both at the same time. The taste was the same, with a sour aftertaste. Trying to describe it, all I can come up with is overly sweet, fermented apple juice. At least there is no alcohol burn with it.
Body is thin and watery, but still there is a sticky film left coating my mouth.
Not undrinkable, but not very enjoyable. In the spirit of Woody's CANquest, I finished the entire glass, refusing to dump the remainder.

The CSX freight train derailed at Highway 113 and Beasley Road early Wednesday morning.
The train carrying coal originated in Evansville, IN and was exiting Plant Bowen - a coal-fired power station - when an engine derailed on the CSX tracks on Georgia Power property.
The train contained three locomotives and 94 empty coal cars. Fire officials said the coal cars did not derail.
Two CSX employees were taken to Floyd County Medical Center in Rome for treatment of non-life threatening injuries.
CSX officials are trying to figure out what caused the train to derail.

By basing its designs on a "functional" color palette of basic and muted natural tones like light grey, black, and beige, Field Scout makes matching your outfits a breeze. The label's chic men's designer clothing and accessories are the work of creative director Ryan Hartman, who finds inspiration in military design and the exotic locales to which he often travels. Combine Field Scout's quilted wool vest with its striped woven shirt and sand-hued twill chino pants, or layer its crew-neck collar Walker jacket over its hand-loomed striped sweater or Merino wool hoodie. Whatever combination you choose, you'll find that Field Scout's handcrafted, versatile clothing makes dressing a stress-free affair.
End the weekend on a high note with a great deal on pieces from some of your favorite designers, including 7 for All Mankind, John Varvatos, and Gant, among others. You'll find everything here from watches and shades to sportcoats and cufflinks. It's the kind of selection you'll want to tell your friends about — but only after you've made your picks.
Camouflage might have been developed to help soldiers blend into deserts and jungles, but we don't know of a print that's more ubiquitous right now. Rather than serving to help you blend into the crowd, these camo pieces from Marc by Marc Jacobs, Alternative Apparel, Naked & Famous, and others, ranging from pants to jackets to bags, are now the most stylish way to stand out.
Hoodies, crewnecks, and more ways to stay warm as the seasons change.
Last chance to score amazing deals on everything from shorts to sweaters.

Union County Sheriff Mack Mason said Frank Miller, 80, was arrested for shooting and killing his daughter, Collen Gant, 59.
The incident happened early Sunday morning on Miller Cove Road.
Mason said Gant called police reporting a problem in her home.
Moments later, dispatchers heard several shots in the background, and the phone line was disconnected.
Mason said deputies arrived at the home and found Miller, a retired Florida police officer, barricaded inside the house with weapons and multiple rounds of ammunition.
Miller refused to come out of the home and the Fannin County Sheriff's SWAT team was called, Mason said.
Police used a stun gun on Miller and took him into custody after a four-hour standoff.
Mason said Miller was arrested in the past and alcohol is believed to be involved in this incident.
Detectives said Miller also shot his 19-year-old great-grandson in this incident.

Are you interested in having a resident camp experience with your troop and troop leader? Now you have the choice of attending Bear Creek Aquatic Camp or Camp Pennyroyal with your troop and troop leaders.You'll participate in summer camp programs like swimming, canoeing, kayaking, campfires, and arts & crafts. All troops must bring enough adults to cover the ratio of their age group (this means at least two adults—please refer to your Safety Activities Check Points or the Troop Core Camp page in the camp brochure). Troop Core Camp is for registered Girl Scouts (girls and adults). Children who are not school aged or participating in the Program will not be permitted to attend Troop Core Camp. Bear Creek Aquatic Camp and Camp Pennyroyal are both rustic facilities and all troops and troop leaders will be sleeping in our cabins and tents.
There are now two levels of Troop Core Camp and multiple dates at both of our camps.
Bring your troop and adult advisors (per Safety Activities Checkpoints) to chaperone and help guide activities. Troop leaders will learn outdoor skills with the support of camp counselors, assist in leading activities, supervise your individual troops throughout the day/night and provide Safety Checkpoint adult ratios. Camp will provide the food, equipment, supplies and trained/certified staff for specialty activities. Cost applies to both girls and all adults in your troop.
Is your troop already camping pros? Then Level 2 Troop Core Camp is for you. You bring your troop along with adult leaders who have had Camp In A, Camp In B, Camp Out, First Aid and CPR (at least one leader must have completed all of these trainings) to camp for a great time with camp activities. Your troop will plan your meals ahead of time then bring and prepare all of their meals while at Troop Core Camp Level 2. Staff will be available to assist with some activities and to facilitate all specialty areas such as boating, swimming, archery and other camp activities. Cost applies to girls and adults in excess of adults needed to meet Safety Checkpoint ratios.

Rod Decker discusses writing and storytelling.
SHAUNA LAKE: Was writing always a passion of yours?
ROD DECKER: No.
SHAUNA LAKE: Storytelling, no?
ROD DECKER: No, no, no. I can write TV stories pretty easily because I do it every day for so long, but I try writing other things and mostly it's very painful, very hard. I drink too much. I have evil thoughts. I do anything other than write.
SHAUNA LAKE: But you wrote a book.
ROD DECKER: I did.
SHAUNA LAKE: You're a published author.
ROD DECKER: I wrote a book and it took me 20 years, and it didn't turn out so well. Then I'm writing another. I'm going to have another one out in a year or two which took me I guess another 10 or 15 years as well.
SHAUNA LAKE: Okay back up. If you don't love to write, why do you write TV news stories every day and why have you written two books?
ROD DECKER: Well it's easy…I sort of feel like I ought to write. It's easy to write TV stories. I can do that pretty easily, but it's hard for me to write books. Writing at the Deseret News I got so I could do it pretty well and pretty easily. But it never got…for the most part, it never got really easy. It wasn't easy when I started, and I thought being a writer was sort of my idea of being respectable. It still kind of is. It's still something that I want very much to have done. I don't want much to do it.

Earlier this week High Line staff, Summer Youth Corps, and Teen Arts Council members were thrilled to host a series of activities as part of our neighborhood's National Night Out, an afternoon and evening of festivities organized by the PSA4 Community Council, Fulton Houses Tenant Association, and Fulton Youth of the Future. National Night Out involves 15,000 communities across the United States and Canada, and even military bases abroad, with a goal of promoting safe communities and neighborhood camaraderie.

Ever dream of memorializing yourself as a sculpture in a public park? These lucky kids transformed dreams into reality on July 15 by creating personalized monuments as part of Arty Hours on the High Line. In this innovative weekly program, kids create their very own masterpieces in response to different sculptures in the group exhibition Busted, currently on view.
Inspired by Frank Benson's Human Statue (Jessie), kids were encouraged to create a sculpted self-portrait as a monument using clay-like materials. Benson's bronze statue is a life-size sculpture of a standing female dancer dressed in haute couture, with her arms gently open in an oval shape and a shield-like disc resting at her feet.
Renowned urban strategists Enrique Peñalosa and Majora Carter joined us for a July 15 panel discussion on building and sustaining equality in public open space. The dynamic speakers left the audience energized and inspired—no easy feat during the throes of a heat wave.
"A good city should feel like a park," said Enrique Peñalosa near the end of a powerful presentation. The former Mayor of Bogotá, Colombia, spoke passionately about the benefits that access to parks and other green places bring to a city's inhabitants.
His sentiment was echoed by Majora Carter of MCG Consulting. The MacArthur "genius" Fellow and Peabody Award–winning broadcaster gave a galvanizing presentation on urban revitalization. "You don't have to move out of your neighborhood to live in a better one," Carter told the audience.
Watch our full-length video of the talk below. Our media partner Next City provides additional coverage in "Looking for Equality in Public Spaces."
In this week's installment of Faces Behind the Food, New York City's friendliest barista, Caitlin McGinn of Blue Bottle Coffee, keeps us wired with fun stories about serving coffee weekly to thousands of people. Caitlin tells us about "life-changing coffees" like the New Orleans, and meaning of coffee for people from different parts of the world who visit the High Line. For hours and locations of all of our vendors, see High Line Food.
Tell us about yourself and your passion for food and drink, including any fun or unusual facts that we might not know. (Any secret talents, perhaps?)
I grew up in New York City, which means I've been exposed to all kinds of amazing cuisine and culture. I have also worked in restaurants since I could walk (sort of!). As such, being around delicious food, drink, and the people who create it is second nature to me. I have found an amazing community in Blue Bottle, and I am proud to represent it on the High Line. We share a common interest and passion for coffee. You can find us tasting new coffees back in our Williamsburg, Brooklyn roastery regularly. We also have education sessions where all the baristas learn about the countries where the coffee comes from, places like Brazil, Mexico, Ethiopia and Uganda.
Excited about our new capsule collection by J.Crew for the High Line, we invited a few friends—including neighbors and colleagues—to try on the tees and accessories in the park that inspired them. 100% of the proceeds from the purchase of this J.Crew collection support Friends of the High Line, helping us keep the High Line beautiful and inspiring for millions of visitors.

High Line supporter Stefan Gargiulo and his two daughters came over to beat the heat in the water feature on the High Line's Diller – von Furstenberg Sundeck. Stefan is dressed in the classic men's vintage train tee and his sweet daughters look adorable in the kid's watercolor map tee and the kid's Curious Garden tee, illustrated by the acclaimed children's author, Peter Brown.
The High Line's planting design is inspired by the self-seeded landscape that grew up between rail tracks after the trains stopped running in the 1980s. Today, the High Line includes more than 300 species of perennials, grasses, shrubs, and trees — each chosen for their hardiness, adaptability, diversity, and seasonal variation in color and texture. Some of the species that originally grew on the High Line's rail bed are reflected in the park landscape today.
This week we share with you one of our gardeners' current favorites.
This week we celebrate another green New York City gem – Wave Hill.
Earlier this summer, our friends at Wave Hill invited High Line staff and Volunteer Photographers for a visit. Join us after the jump for more details and photos from our trip.
On Thursday, July 18, Friends of the High Line and the High Line Teen Arts Council, welcomed more than 275 teens to the first High Line Teen Night. The theme was "High Line Boardwalk," and visitors ate cotton candy, danced to summer jams, and tried their luck at carnival games.
Four months in the making, the event was produced entirely by local teens—and they made sure that we all had a blast! Check out more photos from the night after the jump. And mark your calendars for the second High Line Teen Night: Rising Stars, on Thursday, August 15.
Despite soaring temperatures, construction crews have been making great strides preparing the final section of the High Line, which will open in 2014.

From baking five graduation cakes for high school friends to learning the art of a soft-boiled egg, Kirsten Davenport—kitchen manager of Terroir at the Porch—has been perfecting her culinary skills for a long time.
