Prachanda: New Nepal as a Puppet State?
Outgoing Prime Minister Pushpa Kamal Dahal said Friday that it is quite possible the new coalition government will be a puppet of reactionaries and different power centres.
Addressing the parliament, Dahal alleged the partners of the new UML-led coalition of engaging in a dirty game as they try to install a new government. Describing the exercise to form the new government as part of a 'counter-revolution', the Maoist chief said those "rejected by the people" are now being placed at the helm.
The caretaker Prime Minister in his speech repeatedly questioned the morality of other political parties alleging them of not being able to stand for sovereignty, integrity and unity of the nation.
Dahal, who spent most of his time criticising other parties, said former allies betrayed him in the army chief episode. The parties, according to him, had agreed to take action against the army chief, but later they did a complete about face.
Describing the President's decision to reinstate the army chief as being regressive and unconstitutional, he said the Maoist party would continue peaceful protests to restore civilian supremacy. … go to complete original article

KNOXVILLE (WATE) - The generators have been tested, the emergency supplies have been inventoried, and each ETCH employee has a storm plan. That may mean coming in early to beat the weather or spending the night at the hospital.
"It's very important that we're here, that someone's here. We have to be," said emergency department nurse Mark Bailey.
He stayed overnight when last week's snow storm hit.
"I was scheduled to 7, but stayed until 11 and knew at that point it would be very tricky to go home," he said.
Meanwhile, hospital administrators are making sure the hospital continues to run inside, no matter what's happening outside.
"We have two major substations that feed Children's Hospital. We are very fortunate. In the event that fails, we have two generators on campus," said Rudy McKinley, vice president for operations.
Some minor surgeries have been rescheduled due to the weather.

Wow, she inspires me.
She should run for governor of california!
Way to rep Mountain View :)

Please do NOT elect Sally again. Her social programs are part of the reason the state is in such a dire financial condition. It would be nice if Sally were more aware of the problems and costs of all of her programs. We do not need Sally or any more politicians like her. We need leaders who understand economics and who are fiscally responsible!!!

I agree, we don't need another Lieber. Her tax and spend put us in the boat we are in now. And wow, this has got to be one of the longest articles the Voice has ever devoted to anything. Makes me wonder.

A metro Atlanta brewery has switched from churning out beer to water to help victims of superstorm Sandy.Anheuser-Busch plans on shipping 1 million cans of drinking water to New York and New Jersey from its Cartersville brewery. "It's devastating. We have a lot of employees who have families who have been hurt personally by this," said Rob Haas, general manager of the plant. It's something Aneheuser-Busch first did to help victims of the 1906 San Francisco earthquake. Since then, they've shipped more than 70 million cans of water to disaster areas."When you look at the devastation, this is the least thing that we can do. We're good at this. This is our way of helping," said Haas. The 1 million cans of water will be produced in Cartersville in just 36 hours. "We're going to be staging water at different locations in New York, in Brooklyn and also three places in New Jersey and then the Red Cross will be in charge of distributing it to where it's needed most, " said Haas.For a few days, beer will take a backseat at the brewery as the top priority will be getting the water to those who need it.
"This truck, once it leaves here, it's going to be on the road driving all night and that water will get there tomorrow," said Haas.Anheuser-Busch is uniquely skilled not only to produce the water, but to quickly get it where it's needed. They're working through their distributors to get the water to the hardest hit areas. About 4,000 CASES are already on the ground up north and a lot more will be on the way in the next 24 hours.

So there I was two nights ago. I was embracing my insomnia and listening to music when I forgot about this podcast I had, which I managed to keep forgetting to listen to. It was about 11:30p, so I did what anyone who wants to focus on something does: I went for a walk. I walked from my house to the University of Utah and back down South Temple enjoying how nice the city can look when you only see its form. The lack of detail was good, non-distracting company. The perfect place to be to listen to my favorite musician talk about his upcoming album.
Jack White's new album will finally be released on June 10th. It's his second solo album and there are rumors of another Racountours album along with an infrequent release of music from The Dead Weather. And since he has a new album coming out he has been hitting the interview gauntlet pretty hard. The one must here interview is from NPR's "All Songs Considered" where Jack breaks down some of the new songs, his songwriting, his love of studio spontaneity and his dislike for keeping things around that aren't perfect.
If you've been waiting for some new music from Mr. White and June 10th still seems too far away this interview should tide you over.
Click here and enjoy the interview.

The Pronunciation
A lot of people struggle with the pronunciation think that it's "chu-vur-ches" which is hilarious to me and baffling at the same time.
Previous band names:
The Runner Up choice was Shark Week.
"The Mother We Share" as their first single
We just wanted to go with what we felt was our strongest song or our most immediate song perhaps. Or even the song that best represents the sound of our band for the first time.
"Under The Tide"
I like that song a lot! It's an unusual choice. It doesn't have Lauren on lead vocals...Lauren writes most of the lyrics in the band so I never ask her what the songs are about. I have a feeling that it's a really sad story behind that song, but what it's actually about I have no idea.
Switching between lead vocalists
In terms of Martin being on lead vocals for that song, we never really plan out thinking, "Ok this is gonna be Martin's song, this is gonna be Lauren's song". We tend to kind of have both of them sing - whichever one feels right for the song - and that'll be the one that we end up going with. The song "We Sink" which is the second track on our album - that was going to be Martin on lead vocal right up until the last minute and then we decided to go with the Lauren version. I think it's good that we have two really good singers in the band as well because we get to vary things up a bit.

My wife did get me a my little pony tee-shirt that I humbled myself and wore to Disney Land.
How is the Quintet different from 311?
It is a different thing. It's more vintage sounding. It's not heavy. Probably come out in a blazer. It's more of a kind of an upscale kind of deal. Definitely wanna encourage people to dance and come ready to party, but it's not a moshing kind of situation. It's a lot of improvisation, funky styles, solos, and we're gonna do some covers. We actually do this thing called the Dice Jam where we roll dice to pick tempos and keys and scales and then just go. So it's much more unscripted than anything I've ever been apart of.
Next up for 311
We just tweeted an announcement over the pre-order...There's 15 songs to the new record. It's coming out on March 11 - 3/11 day - and we're holding our big concert in New Orleans on that day.

People know you from Late Night with Jimmy Fallon, but you also do a million other things. Lets talk about you, where did you come from?
I grew up in Princeton New Jersey. I have been acting since I was a kid. I think I did a stand up in fifth grade. I was about ten years old. Its hard to remember but I did a lot of Steve Martin Jokes from the album Let's Get Small. I don't know what half the jokes were or why they were even funny. The fifth graders liked them.
How are you guys preparing for The Tonight Show?
I don't have too much to do with it. The set is done, we finally built a whole new set. It's very exciting, we are bringing the tonight show back here to New York. Nothing is really going to change that much. The same staff, same office, it's just a new set in pretty much the same room it has always been in.
Let's talk about the show on National Geographic
Duck Quacks Don't Echo. It's National Geographic's first science comedy. It's hosted by three different comics. Each one of us has a different series we present. Sometimes we do giant production experiences with a LIVE audience.

The Name "Bear Hands"
I guess we had started the band while I was still in college with Ted. We recorded a bunch of demos right off; like I had already had the songs written and I was just looking for a band to get together to record them. And as soon as we did that we gave them to a little indie label that Ted had known the owner of, and he really dug it, and he wanted to take a meeting like really quick and we didn't have a name. You know, we had like 3-song demos that this dude really liked but we didn't have a name. So literally on the drive to this guy's house in New Jersey we had to name the band. And Val our bass player had the name Bear Hands hanging around from a previous band, like rolodex of potential names and we settled on it.
"Giants" (single) – Where did the name come from?
That song name just fit. I remember writing both the verses in a spree. I don't think I'd written the chorus yet – the "loving you more" line. But I had written both the verses like immediately just after having a really skeletal beat and for some reason the word "giants" came to mind when I was naming the Garage Band file or whatever and it stuck. That name just makes sense to me but it doesn't really apply to the lyrics...There's not a specific person that that "loving you more" line is about. But I have felt like that I loved someone more than the loved me. Universal experience.

Music Influences
If I had to name my pantheon – you know the greatest of all time – it would have to be Kurt [Cobain] and Bob Dylan and Notorious B.I.G. Those are the three gods of my music world.
Can't Read Music
No I don't know how to do that. That's embarrassing. At Wesleyan I took one semester of piano classes with this little Asian lady who was really not incredibly helpful. Didn't learn so much there. I think I took maybe five guitar lessons when I was 12 or 13 from an overweight guy in some mini mall in Connecticut. Didn't pick up much there. I started playing guitar like punk songs and stuff, and really once you learn the power chords you can play any punk song. I also was disinterested quickly in learning other people's songs, so I really started to write my own even though they were really heinous and painful and awful in the beginning. It was just more interesting to me than learning what other people have done.

A lot has been written about the now-infamous call in Friday's Wild Card game between the Atlanta Braves and St. Louis Cardinals. A lot has been written about the reaction from the Turner Field fans. I briefly mentioned it in the recap that night, but I wanted to touch on these two subjects again, as well as the one-game Wild Card playoff game. I feel I need to get my full opinion out there for posterity.
First, on the infield fly that wasn't, but was ruled one. Obviously as a Braves fan I think the call was crap, but in the following days I've tried to look at objectively ... and I still think the call was crap. The infield fly rule is there, as any disciple of Skip Caray will tell you, to protect the base runners, and therefore the team at-bat, from the defensive team dropping the ball intentionally and turning a quick double-play. That's why it exists.
The reason Braves fans feel so jilted by the call on Friday, and the reason this call was so terrible, is that after the infielder "dropped" the ball, the outfielder picked it up not more than a second or two later, and was unable to throw out even one of the base runners. If that had truly been an infield fly rule situation, then at least one out, if not two outs should have been gotten on the base paths.
The fact that no outs were made after the drop, the fact that the outfielder fielded the ball, the fact that the infielder was 50 feet away from the infield cutout are all reasons that this was a terrible call.
Major League Baseball has, to my knowledge, never upheld any protest of an umpire's call, so I get why they didn't uphold it here. The rule is written such that it's up to the judgment of the umpire, so that gives MLB an easy excuse to not uphold the Braves protest of the call.
What I think should come out of this experience is a limiting of the outfield umpires responsibilities on the field. The infield fly was called by the left field umpire (the outfield umpires are present only during playoff games). These outfield umpires should have their duties limited to calling fair or foul balls and home runs, and that's just about it. An umpire who is not in the infield has no business calling an infield rule.
As for the reaction of the Braves fans to the call, to litter the field with bottles and cans; I must say if I were there I don't believe I would have contributed to that display. But I also don't think it was too far out of bounds. Judging from the amount of trash on the field this obviously wasn't the actions of just a few, but of a large portion of the fans. As misplaced as their passion may have been, this was the act of passionate fans. So let no other team ever again question the passion of Braves fans, or their desire to let their voice be heard.
I'm not advocating for this to be the norm by any means, or for this to ever happen again, but for that moment, for that call, it seems to me like an appropriate reaction that I would have expected from passionate fans of any team. Not all fans, not all passionate fans, but some.
And finally, as for one-game Wild Card games, do I like them or hate them? Even after this loss, I like them. I liked the idea before this game, and I still like the idea, though I understand that a one-game playoff in baseball is a new and novel concept and hard for a lot of fans to come to terms with.
The Wild Card should have always been the conciliation prize of the postseason, and should never have been on an equal footing as winning a division. The entry into the baseball postseason is to win your division, and any additional teams who don't win their division, regardless of their record, should have to do some extra work to play those division winners.
The Wild Card game makes the Wild Card team play an extra game, and use their best starter, and puts them at somewhat of disadvantage when they finally advance to face one of those division winners. That's how it should be, and by making this change, baseball brings back the importance of winning a division.
So those are my opinions of the hot topics of the past 72 hours. I'm sure some will disagree ... it wouldn't be a sports discussion if someone didn't disagree.

Police say a body was found inside a 55-gallon drum inside an apartment in Harlem Saturday night.
Authorities say a woman called 911 to report the stench in her apartment at 2400 Seventh Avenue near West 140th Street around 9:40 p.m. Officers arrived to find the container and dead body in her grandson's bedroom, according to the New York Post.
The clothed victim was found unconscious and unresponsive and was stuffed inside the drum.
Police say the cause of death is not yet clear. The Post is reporting the grandson is in police custody while getting a psychological exam at St. Luke's Hospital, but he has not been named a suspect or charged.

Two men demand restitution in bizarre call to MBTA police
The Transit Police Department revealed an amusing exchange on its blog Wednesday, saying the department recently received a call from two apparently drunk men demanding money because their commuter train made them late for work Monday.
Police wrote that the men, "originally referred to as Dumb & Dumber until we were overruled by a higher authority," told dispatch they read "about the chick cop who stopped the pit bull to save the train."
According to police, one of the callers claimed, in between obscenities, "We were on the train, because you all stopped the train we were delayed, dismayed and didn't get paid. We want our fare refunded plus 50 dollars for pain and suffering."
Transit Police located the men, allegedly passed out with two half consumed vodka bottles at their feet, at Downtown Crossing Station. The pair was removed from the station, police said, which drew "cheers and applause of several MBTA patrons."

BOSTON (AP) - A federal judge has agreed to turn over some sealed documents gathered during hearings in the 1990s to reputed gangster James "Whitey" Bulger's lawyers to use as they defend him against charges accusing him of playing a role in 19 murders.
U.S. District Judge Mark Wolf said Thursday that certain information may be removed from the documents, including the names of confidential informants. Wolf presided over hearings in the '90s when Bulger's corrupt relationship with the FBI was revealed. The documents would be given only to Bulger's defense team.
Bulger, the former leader of the Winter Hill Gang, was also an FBI informant on the New England Mob, his gang's main rivals.
Bulger's lawyers say they plan to argue that a former federal prosecutor gave him immunity for his crimes while he was an FBI informant.

Louis Delmas (knee) missed practice all week and is doubtful to play in the Week 1 matchup against the Rams.
Analysis: Delmas could have been a decent spot-start at home against the Rams, but there's no way IDP owners can trust a guy like Delmas with the injury risk hanging over his head. Erik Coleman is actually a sneaky IDP play for owners that feel like rolling the dice and he has a shot for eight tackles and a pick. That said, he's a DB3 at best. Detroit's D is one of the best bets to go off on Sunday with their pressure and the permeable St. Louis O-line.

2nd time cruiser and was totally disappointed in level of service , but what got me more than anything was that some people payed less than half of what we paid for a balcony cabin.... We had booked everything so we could have the 'holiday of a lifetime' and to be honest, we would have been better going back to Egypt to our favourite resort - we could have been there 5 times for what we paid.
Food not so good, got food poisoning, the only good thing about this ship was the weather and the people we met....fantastic and 6 out of 8 ports were superb,but never again will I cruise a British cruise line. As a nation we really do have a lower expectation than the Americans.
I spoke to other on board who were shocked , discussed and disappointed who said that they could only use the experience to never cruise P&O again, but highly recommend Princess cruises and Royal Carrbean.
Totally agree - I went on Royal Carribean before and spent £2k less for 2 wks and was in a similar sized tom, but the food, people and the ship were absolutely 1st class, staff were excellent.....if only we could turn the clock back...so very disappointed in this holiday. Would never recommend this cruise to anyone - use another cruise line........

Japan's Softbank said Monday it has reached a deal to acquire a 70 percent stake in U.S. mobile operator Sprint Nextel for $20 billion, forming one of the world's largest telecom operators.
The companies said the deal would allow aggressive Softbank to expand into the U.S. market and become a global force, with the new, combined entity becoming the third-largest operator in the world by revenue. The deal will also provide $8 billion in new capital to Sprint for its network and to shore up its finances.

"It's going to open up opportunities for us both internally and externally that we haven't had since I have been here at Sprint," Sprint CEO Dan Hesse said at a news conference in Tokyo.
Hesse also made an initial pitch to regulators, who still must approve the deal: "This is pro-competition and pro-consumer, because it creates a stronger No. 3 to compete with the duopoly of AT&T and Verizon."
Sprint wants to emulate Softbank's ascent from a distant No. 3 in its home market. "It's something that we can learn from," he said.
Softbank CEO Masayoshi Son, speaking at the same conference, said, "When you take a challenge, you take various risks. This challenge in America is not going to be easy." But, he said, "We are confident."
One opportunity Son identified was Softbank's experience with faster network speeds in Japan. "In America, network speeds are slower, they are about half of what they are in Japan," he said. "This is an opportunity for us."
Hesse said Sprint can learn from Softbank's experience deploying technologies such as LTE.
Analysts say the deal may lead to a shakeup of the U.S. mobile market, which is currently dominated by two large operators, AT&T and Verizon Wireless. Softbank, which first became a mobile operator just six years ago, has doubled its subscriber base in Japan using aggressive pricing and creative contracts.
The deal will provide a cash injection for Sprint, which, like Softbank, is still building out its high-speed network. The new entity will also be able to select from a range of technologies used in Japan to introduce to the United States, such as touch-card payments and mobile TV, as well as reaping benefits from its new scale.
By acquiring Sprint, Softbank is likely to make some economies of scale, as the iPhone is the core handset at both companies and both use Ericsson infrastructure, said an analyst report from Citigroup issued before the deal's official news announcement.
Hesse said Sprint is still booking large up-front costs from selling iPhones, and those contracts will take several years turn profitable.
News reports in Japan have also said Softbank will use its position in Sprint to pursue a purchase of MetroPCS Wireless. That company is also being courted by T-Mobile.
Both the Softbank-Sprint deal and the T-Mobile-MetroPCS deal will be good for U.S. consumers since they will put more pressure on Verizon and AT&T, according to Kester Mann, lead analyst for operators at CCS Insight.
Softbank is relatively unknown outside of Japan but has a reputation as an aggressive Internet conglomerate at home, with a history of barging into new fields and undercutting its rivals with cheap prices, new services, and oddball advertising -- one of the company's spokesmen is a surly talking dog that has become a minor celebrity in the country.

Pickled Swiss Chard Stems
Rainbow chard is especially pretty pickled, but any variety will work.
Published: July 2013 Servings: 8
Chard Stems and Seasoning
- 1 pound chard stems (from about 4 bunches), cut into 4-inch lengths
- 1 small shallot, thinly sliced
- 1/4 cup kosher salt
- 2 tablespoons brown mustard seeds
- 1 tablespoon caraway seeds

- 1/2 cup sugar

PREPARATIONView Step-by-Step Directions
Chard Stems and Seasoning
Toss chard stems, shallot, and salt in a colander set in the sink. Let stand 1 hour. Rinse and drain well.
Meanwhile, toast mustard and caraway seeds in a small skillet over medium heat, stirring often, until mustard seeds begin to pop, about 2 minutes. Let seeds cool.
Pack chard stems, shallot, and toasted seeds into two 16-oz. jars.
Bring vinegar, sugar, and 1 cup water to a boil in a small saucepan; let cool slightly. Pour brine into jars. Let cool slightly, then cover and chill.
DO AHEAD: Pickles can be made 2 weeks ahead. Keep chilled.
Use the same salting method and brine, but instead of chard stems and shallot, use 1 sliced seeded peeled green papaya (about 1 pound). Omit mustard and caraway seeds, and use 2 red or green Thai chiles and one 1-inch-piece peeled turmeric or ginger, thinly sliced.
Use the same salting method and brine, but instead of chard stems and shallot, use 1 pound fresh banana chiles (cut a long slit in each pepper to allow brine to penetrate) and 1 sliced peeled carrot. Omit mustard and caraway seeds, and use 1 garlic clove.

Luxurious Capriccio, carved out of the cellars of a Financial District landmark, is located along the Providence Riverwalk at the corner of Dyer & Pine Streets. It has long been the capital city's renowned mecca for candlelight sophistication and black tie service "where locals and out-of-towners are deliciously pampered." Creative continental cuisine with a northern Italian and Mediterranean accent has earned it over 35 awards for fine dining and wines. Signature dishes include imported Dover sole, Maine lobster, prime aged steaks, native seafood, housemade pastas, and flambeed desserts. Recipient of the Wine Spectator's Award of Excellence, its elegant lounge boasts one of America's great Cognac collections. Open weekdays for lunch, daily for dinner.

- OpenTable Diner Since 2012Dined on 8/30/2014Great food and service after all these years! We sat in private room #2 and were nicely attended to while served a delicious meal.Special Features:
- YummyDined on 8/29/2014We went to Capriccio with 2 other couples after reading some reviews. Most reviews loved the food but not the service. Well, we could not have asked for better service! Don, our waiter, was knowledgable and witty! We were not rushed and enjoyed every bite. Loved the decor! We will definitely go back!Special Features:
- Capriccio's is a great restaurant!FloridavisitorDined on 8/29/2014And has been for years. Food is outstanding. Ambiance, romantic, great wine list, delicious food & the best service. Rob, our waiter was outstanding. This is the place to go when dining in Providence.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- *****Goodnightout99VIPDined on 8/23/2014Capriccio's is by far the best fine dining restaurant in Providence. The menu is authentic and diverse with exceptional accouterments . The Flambe is classic and unrivaled. We bring out of town guests here and they instantly know why Providence is a little known gem for culture and style. The staff is truly professional, service is 2nd to none and the Captain Steve is one of a kind and remarkable.Special Features:
- Awesome food, great vibehotmarlinDined on 8/16/2014Roll yourself back to a top-tier Mad-man style restaurant and you have Capriccio. The food is awesome, the service attentive, and the general vibe reminds you of what it means to have a fine meal... I have used Capriccio for important business meetings, family gatherings, and special occasions and it has never left me with a moment's regret. Perhaps the best testament to how fine an establishment Capriccio is is that my repeat business guests request it by name...Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Superb dining experienceOpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 8/12/2014Our first dining experience at Capriccio's was fabulous. The food was rich and delicious. The waiter was the best. Highly recommend for fine dining.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Simply the BestJunieDined on 8/2/2014I have been eating at Capriccio's Restaurant for 35+ years - one of my favorite restaurants. We ate at Capriccio's last month during Providence Restaurant Week and were very happy to learn that they were still offering that 3 course menu for $35 - what a great deal!I had Carpaccio with truffle oil - American Kobe beef sliced paper-thin, fresh and delicious. For my entree, I had scallops - sweet and cooked perfectly with a polenta cake that was crisp on the outside and soft inside. My friend had perfect veal parmigiana - pounded thin, but still moist and tender veal. He had Tiramisu and I had Panna cotta for dessert - both sweet, creamy and delicious. The waitstaff anticipates your needs - always available without hovering. Love this place!Special Features:
- SUPERB!FussyDinersDined on 8/2/2014We had dinner for our 45th anniversary the other night and it was superb, as always. This is such a great restaurant, the quality of the food and service are second to none. The attention to detail is wonderful, the food preparation table side is pure entertainment.Special Features:
- Capriccio Does Not DisappointLongmeadowgalDined on 8/1/2014My husband and I dined here on Friday night - restaurant week menu was available although we opted to order from regular menu. We ordered different things- both entrees were very good. Our server, Jane, was excellent - attentive but not hovering. At night's end, we asked that the Maitre'd call us a cab - he offered to have the restaurant's limo driver take us back to our hotel - very nice gesture. When intown again, we would definitely plan to eat here again.Special Features:
- Great foodRob1764VIPDined on 7/31/2014I ordered the seafood cake as an appetizer, a 1.25 lb lobster with linguini and the tiramisu. Everything was very good. The linguini was a bit overcooked, but overall, the meal was very good. My BF got the veal parmigiana and it was one of the best I have had in a long while. The breading was made with good quality bread crumbs, cheese, spices and other complex flavors that made every crispy bite, just delicious. The gnocchi that came with the veal was delightful. A nice dining experience.Special Features:
- Not recommendedOpenTable Diner Since 2011Dined on 7/27/2014Disappointed by the level of service from this restaurant, a recommended dish from the wait staff was misleading and the dish was returned, only to have the Manager be confrontational and asking why it was returned instead of offering a solution.
- PostmasterDined on 7/22/2014Was disappointed. Brought a friend to celebrate a milestone. Service was exceptionally slow, open packet of breadsticks was in our basket. Built up the bar selection and then didn't have what was asked for. But it was the slow service and lack of attention that was disappointing. The maitre'd did send an after dinner drink over in honor of the occasion. That was a nice touch, thank you.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- peterpetersDined on 7/21/2014An amazing restaurant. In my top 10 worldwide. Incredible menu with extraordinary service.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- My FavoriteDessyDined on 7/19/2014This is my favorite restaurant in RI. I come here every year for my birthday. The waiters are so friendly and attentive. The drinks and food are both phenomenal.Special Features:
- Restaurant WeekPMFoodieDined on 7/19/2014We chose selections from the restaurant week menu and everything was excellent! Great value. We have been here a couple of times and the food and service is always good. Compared to other places we have tried the selection for restaurant week is much better.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- FantasticOpenTable Diner Since 2006VIPDined on 7/19/2014We dined during restaurant week with another couple. I have a food allergy which was addressed by an outstanding waiter. (sorry did not get his name) He told me not to worry; he would take care of everything. He did! I had the seafood cakes; salmon with risotto, all made special for me! I could tell from others at the table who had the dishes prepared as described on the menu. The 3 choices for dessert all contained my allergic ingredient so the waiter prepared a multi color sorbet, which I enjoyed immensely. My husband had the veal parmigiana; best he's ever had!!! Eveyone enjoyed their meals; good selection to choose from and portions were quite ample. We are definitely going back for another wonderful experience.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Just OKtacitiaDined on 7/18/2014First the good things about this restaurant: the ambience is very good, and the waiters are very professional and polite. The wine list is impressive. The food, however, is simply mediocre. The pork loin I ordered was very oily and bland. The portion was huge, which might count as a plus for some but not for me. I ordered riso as appetizer which was pretty good, though.Special Features:
- ClassicJessicaDined on 7/17/2014Classic food in a nice setting, a bit dark inside, but adds to the ambianceSpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- A Restaurant Week GemChooseyinriDined on 7/14/2014Who could resist a 3 course dinner at Capricio's for $34.95. The menu had good selection and the service was gracious. The caesar salad was the best I've had in a long time. Our entrees were ample and the Panna Cotta a treat. With the selection available I will definitely be back.Special Features:
- JaimieVIPDined on 7/13/2014Known institution around Rhode Island. Unfortunately the food left much to be desired, it certainly wasn't bad food but not memorable either. Could have had the same thing somewhere else and it probably would have been better. The menu has been the same since it opened.Special Features:
- Great food, service and ambience.Dlw120Dined on 7/13/2014Had dinner with my husband while visiting Providence. Every course was delicious and the service was very attentive. Loved the romantic hideaway ambiance. Would definitely recommend.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- its so RIeatmorefoodDined on 7/12/2014food is great. definitely a place to show off your money and rhode islanders are big on showing off.Special Features:
- A jewel in ProvidenceOpenTable Diner Since 2013Dined on 7/12/2014I have been frequenting Capriccio's for over 25years. I have brought many, many business clients there over the years and never been disappointed. Most clients ask to go back when they return to Providence. The quality of food is superb and is always consistent. The service, ambiance and Italian dishes are always great. In fact Gino (the Dover Sole expert) has been working there for 38 years. Some of the meals are actually prepared table side. Located in the heart of the city and it is always a destination. Good wine selection. Go there with confidence that the experience will be memorable.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- first time and loved itmrtbuckDined on 7/11/2014Having lived in RI for many years this was the first time I've eaten at Capriccio. It was a celebration for having closed on a house and gotten a new job. In years past I heard it was very expensive. I was surprised to find the pricing reasonable for the quality of food and service. Our waiter was attentive and knowledgeable. The food was excellent. I had a Haddock special that was cooked perfectly. My wife had the veal and the artichoke and Mozzarella it was prepared with was a beautiful combination. The building itself was lovely and had the touch of history of the stone walls with a mixture of newer architecture that complimented each other and felt quite comfortable. Wholeheartedly loved the experience.Special Features:
- Always deliciousCameronFXDined on 7/10/2014We have eaten here during restaurant week and just on special occasions. The food is always delicious and the service is fantastic.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Loved this restaurant!FoodLover5Dined on 7/9/2014I went here during restaurant week with two friends, and will most definitely be coming back again, restaurant week or not! The setting is great, classy and elegant. The staff was very attentive and friendly and made us feel welcomed. The food was amazing, perfectly cooked, I had lobster and linguini in a red sauce and it was phenomenal. I'm usually not a fan of red sauces but this sauce had a lot of flavor, and the lobster was great! The next time I come back I will most definitely be getting the filet mignon, as my friend got this and it just melted in your mouth, no need for a steak knife! I can't wait to go back to this restaurant!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Classic Dining in ProvidenceAttleboroFoodieDined on 7/3/2014Walking down into this restaurant is like stepping back about 30 years. The menu is classic, the service very formal and the ambiance was just ok. Perhaps it would seem cozy in the winter, but a cellar restaurant in the summer just feels dark. We had the scallop appetizer and raw bar for our appetizers which were good and then scallops and the beef risotto for our entrees which were, again, good, nothing amazing. My husband's favorite item was the cannoli. In a town full of excellent restaurants, there are better choices for the same price point as this one.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Everything top notchTeeSDined on 7/3/2014Amazing caprese, the veal dishes are outstanding. Perfect service and terrific atmosphere. Capriccio is the tops, baby!Special Features:

- Just okayOpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 7/1/2014I was disappointed in the food both the taste and the presentation. It was just ordinary. The waiter was very hard to understand. He had a very heavy accent. I always looked forward to a meal at Capriccio. They must improve their cuisine because there is so much competition out there.Special Features:
- A memorable experience!OpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 6/28/2014We took friends from Greece and NYC to Capriccio for a typically New England dinner. The appetizers were interesting and delicious. Our guests both had whole lobsters and we had the duck and the tuna. Everything was prepared perfectly and the presentation was excellent. The cannoli for dessert had delectable filling and no sogginess. I highly recommend Capriccio, especially if you are looking for a broad seafood selection.Special Features:
- Superb meal, superb dining roomRabelaisDined on 6/28/2014We tried Capriccio because the menu looked outstanding and the restaurant is perfectly situated to walk out the door after dinner and right into the Waterfire display. The Beef Wellington, a classic on the menu, was off the charts, with a really superb mushroom and reduction sauce spooned over it after it is cut (the waiter called it the "sauce of the gods"...seems about right). This Beef Wellington is done the right way, in an individual pastry as opposed to cut from a larger piece, which they present as a whole, then they slice it and spoon on the sauce. My companion had a duck special that was also exceptional. The wine list is skewed to the expensive side, with the bulk of bottles in the $200-350 range, but nice wines.Special Features:
- Delicious food,fantastic servicejune2014Dined on 6/21/2014Can't remember server's name, young,slim man, wonderful server, very attentive,nice addition to experience.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Don't bother for lunchOpenTable Diner Since 2009Dined on 6/20/2014Awful waiter. Way too formal, down to the studded cufflinks. Never offered us a fixed price for lunch, never offered us a lunch menu. When we asked if they had a wine list (since none was on the table or give to us), he simply said "yes." Finally, after back-and-forth, he asked if we would like to see the wine list. Uh yes idiot! Completely overpriced lunch. Only our table and one other occupied. Now I see why. It seemed like we were bothering him when we needed something.

- Maitre'DwngtaVIPDined on 6/14/2014Food was good, service was good, but the maitre'd must be a relative of the owner because he was rude and unprofessional. No business would deliberately hire someone with his demeanor.

Featuring VisibleGains, Joppa Global Marketing Partners, & Accounting Management Solutions
IDEA provides ventures with coaching, connections to resources, and funding. One key aspect of IDEA, however, are our service providers. Our providers consist of public relations firms, financial and accounting groups, marketing and media strategy agencies, and legal offices. These professionals dedicate their time and services to assist our ventures throughout the business development process. And, as an added bonus, their services are free of charge for IDEA's ventures to utilize!
Most of IDEA's service providers have an affiliation with Northeastern. Regardless of whether they are a former graduate, professor, or parent of a student, they all share the hope of being able to give back to the entrepreneurial community at Northeastern. In the past year, Boston's own VisibleGains, Joppa Global Marketing Partners, and Accounting Management Solutions were some of the service providers introduced into the program, each eager to start!
Cliff Pollan's goal is to create better communication between the business and the client. As founder, president, and CEO of VisibleGains, Pollan joined IDEA over a year ago and was blown away with the concept of IDEA and by how involved the students are.
Two months ago, VisibleGains launched Postwire, a software which they call "a dead simple way to collect and share videos, photos, web links and documents on a private page you create for each client in a minute." This program allows the business to virtually share projects and documents with the client to review and provide feedback – doing away with lengthy email chains and typical file sharing. Postwire was launched in April at New York City's TechCrunch, where Pollan and his team finished in the top 30 out of 6,000 applicants.
Postwire will help IDEA ventures earn business, generate funding, and communicate internally, says Pollan. In addition, ventures will receive free access to the program.
Pollan is thrilled to be part of the service providers program and working with student entrepreneurs. "Having the service provider network is a huge asset," explains Pollan. "But most importantly, the students are the best asset. And I think it's a great opportunity for the service providers to learn from them."
Joppa Global Marketing Partners
Joppa is a strategic marketing consulting firm, specializing in marketing technology products and services. Dick Andersen, a partner at Joppa, received a B.S. in Electrical Engineering from Northeastern ('71) and is a former adjunct faculty member in the Graduate School of Business (1975-1995). New to IDEA last year, Andersen and Joppa came on board to give back to the university and the students.
Joppa provides their clients guidance and operational oversight for their marketing strategy, plans and activities, beginning with an assessment and analysis of the company's current marketing plan. Following that analysis, Joppa assists their clients with a full range of services to plan and execute marketing and product programs insuring they get the most out of their marketing investments.
Andersen has experience in running multiple startups and in the past, has held positions in marketing, product management, engineering, and operations. He uses his past venture knowledge to help clients establish business structure, evaluate finance alternatives, conduct market research, and build industry connections. With Joppa, Andersen will be working with IDEA ventures to provide these services, along with marketing planning and program execution.
Andersen explains that marketing plays a crucial role in the startup venture process. "Having a focused marketing plan, executing it, and adapting it to changing market conditions is critical for a company to establish itself in the market and grow. Our services can help ventures create the plan, put the right team in place to execute the programs, and fine tune the programs to maximize the results."
Accounting Management Solutions
As a leading providers of outsourced account and financial management services, Accounting Management Solutions helps for-profit and nonprofit organizations with financial modeling, software selection, and account infrastructure. And as organizations grow, AMS can be the "financial eyes and ears" for their clients.
Jim Bourdon is CEO & founder of Accounting Management Solutions and a former Northeastern undergraduate ('73) and MBA student ('84). As the newest service provider to join IDEA, AMS has already had the opportunity to work with a student venture, KeeWee Listings. KeeWee is a social platform that allows college students to post and search for sublet openings. In April, KeeWee founders Brandon Beneduce and Andrew Rodriguez met with Bourdon to discuss their revenue strategy; Bourdon then assigned KeeWee with one of AMS' senior consultants. From there, AMS worked to build an extensive financial model, develop a sustainable budget, and clarify financial assumptions.
"It's hard enough coming up with a concept and by having service providers in different fields, it helps them come up with a better model," explains Bourdon. "Particularly for students, it's hard to have the answers and to have professionals available, it helps them make the best decisions."
Beneduce says that without AMS' help, KeeWee would not be where they are today. "When we had gone through the IDEA gap funding application rounds in the past, the investment committee had indicated to us that our [Profit & Loss], assumptions, and overall revenue model were not clear enough. AMS was able to help and improve our models so that we operated as a better business and were able to solve the errors that the investment committee had found."
The service providers program plays a vital role in each venture's success. Because all of IDEA's service providers are distinguished in their individual fields, the program is immeasurably beneficial to ventures.
"No matter what kind of founder you are, you will not have expertise in every aspect of running a business," says Beneduce. "At some point in your company's lifespan, you will need help from someone with professional experience in that area you are not proficient in, which could run your company thousands of dollars. This is where our service providers step in, and I think they are an invaluable resource to its ventures."
After all, each and every service provider has one common priority: to help IDEA's student ventures succeed the best they can.

"I just received the invitations that I ordered for Bella's party. OMG!! They are absolutely amazing! I love, love, love them! The paper quality was excellent. No flimsy, cheap cardstock. I wasn't sure how her photo would turn out so I was pleased to see that the photo turned out well. The font and colors turned out great as well! I would highly recommend tinyprints to all my family and friends! Ordering was easy. Shipping was fast and the product was professionally done.

The California State Attorney General estimates more than 200,000 senior citizens are victims of elder abuse in our state each year. While elder abuse can be emotional, financial or physical, a recent case highlights the vulnerability of our senior population.
In November 2012, 28-year old David Moreno was arrested by the Brea Police Department and charged with sexual battery on an institutionalized person and other sexual offenses. As a janitor at Emeritus Senior Living in Yorba Linda, Mr. Moreno gained access to the room of a 69-year old dementia patient last summer
After law enforcement located evidence linking the attack to Mr. Moreno he was arrested, pled not guilty and was released on $100,000 bail. Police are concerned there may be additional victims of Mr. Moreno, though administrators at Emeritus Living believe this was an isolated incident.
Elder abuse of any kind is serious and on the rise. The California Department of Finances estimates the number of Californians 85 and older will double by 2030 and the Office of Statewide Health Planning and Development reported one-fifth of California nursing homes did not meet required staffing levels in 2005.
Understanding signs of elder abuse is important for relatives and other loved ones:
Mr. Moreno is due in court in January. Too often elder abuse is suffered in silence for fear of perpetrators or a faulty memory. If you suspect a loved one is at risk, or being abused, do not hesitate to report concerns and take needed legal steps by contacting an elder abuse attorney to ensure their safety.

The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) has extended the public comment period for the proposed National Saltwater Angler Registry rule until August 21, 2008.
The proposed rule, required by the Magnuson-Stevens Act (MSA), would establish the National Saltwater Angler Registry, providing NOAA with catch data from saltwater anglers who fish in federal waters, aiding in sustainable management of marine fish stocks.
The registry will enable the federal government to identify more accurately who is fishing and what is being caught. Data generated by the registry will ultimately provide NOAA with the information it needs to better allocate marine fisheries resources to recreational saltwater anglers. A final rule based on all comments received is expected in November 2008, with the requirement going into effect Jan. 1, 2009.
You can visit to the NOAA website and enter your comments- pro or con - online through August 21 at: www.regulations.gov/fdmspublic/ component/main?main=SubmitComment&o=0900006480620f04.
If you'd rather submit comments in hard copy, you can submit via fax to (301) 713-1875, Attn: Gordon Colvin, or via US Postal Service to: John Boreman, Director, Office of Science and Technology, NMFS, 1315 East West Highway, Silver Spring, MD 20910, Attn: Gordon Colvin.

Clarification: Inauguration-Celebrities story
WASHINGTON (AP) - In a Jan. 21 story about the inauguration of President Obama, The Associated Press reported that the singer Beyonce performed an "impressive rendition of the national anthem." Facing questions about whether she lip-synced the song at the event, she disclosed on Jan. 31 that she had sung along with a pre-recorded track of her singing the anthem.

Jeff Goodman at Foxsports.com is reporting that Baylor coach Scott Drew and the Baylor basketball program are under NCAA investigation stemming from their recruitment of a Columbian high school player.
FOXSports.com has also confirmed through sources that the NCAA is expected to be in Waco later this month to interview Drew and members of the Bears coaching staff. NCAA representatives did not respond to requests for comment.
The ongoing investigation surrounds the recruitment of 6-foot-9 Hanner Perea, a junior from Colombia who transferred to LaLumiere High School in Indiana.
The allegations are said to be about Baylor assistant coach Mark Morefield's penchant for sending Perea text messages. He's actually already suspended for his overly-friendly usage of text messaging. One particular text was a thinly-veiled threat that if Perea didn't commit to Baylor, he was going to find himself back in Columbia soon after. Classy.
No comments from Baylor or its coaches yet.
The incident is a black cloud hanging over a program that doesn't need another one. The Bears had finally moved on from the murder of player Patrick Dennehy and subsequent controversy that followed. The team made it all the way to the Elite Eight last season in a signal that the program was back on its feet.
Along with last week's news that top returning scorer LaceDarius Dunn was arrested on charges of aggravated assault and suspended indefinitely from the team, it looks like the Baylor Bears are heading back to dark days...and in a hurry.

In an attempt to block email spoofing attacks on yahoo.com addresses, Yahoo began imposing a stricter email validation policy that unfortunately breaks the usual workflow on legitimate mailing lists.
The problem is a new DMARC (Domain-based Message Authentication, Reporting and Conformance) "reject" policy advertised by Yahoo to third-party email servers, said John Levine, a long-time email infrastructure consultant and president of the Coalition Against Unsolicited Commercial Email (CAUCE), in a message sent to the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) mailing list Monday.
[ Find out how to block the viruses, worms, and other malware that threaten your business, with hands-on advice from expert contributors in InfoWorld's "Malware Deep Dive" PDF guide. | Keep up with key security issues with InfoWorld's Security Adviser blog and Security Central newsletter. ]
DMARC is a technical specification for implementing the SPF (Sender Policy Framework) and DKIM (DomainKeys Identified Mail) email validation and authentication mechanisms. These technologies were designed to prevent email address spoofing commonly used in spam and phishing attacks.
The goal of DMARC is to achieve a uniform implementation of SPF and DKIM among the top email service providers and other companies that want to benefit from email validation.
The specification introduces the concept of aligned identifiers, which requires the SPF or DKIM validation domains to be the same as or sub-domains of the domain for the email address in the "from" field. The domain owners can use a DMARC policy setting called "p=" to tell receiving email servers what should happen if the DMARC check fails. The possible values for this setting can be "none" or "reject."
Over the weekend Yahoo published a DMARC record with "p=reject" essentially telling all receiving email servers to reject emails from yahoo.com addresses that don't originate from its servers, Levine said.
While this is a good thing from an anti-spoofing perspective, it raises problems for legitimate mailing lists, according to the email expert.
"Lists invariably use their own bounce address in their own domain, so the SPF doesn't match," Levine said. "Lists generally modify messages via subject tags, body footers, attachment stripping, and other useful features that break the DKIM signature. So on even the most legitimate list mail like, say, the IETF's, most of the mail fails the DMARC assertions, not due to the lists doing anything 'wrong'."
With the new policy, when a Yahoo user sends an email to a mailing list, the list's server distributes that message to all subscribers, changing the headers and breaking DMARC validation. List subscribers with email accounts on servers that perform DMARC checks, such as Gmail, Hotmail (Outlook.com), Comcast or Yahoo itself, will reject the original message and respond back to the list with automated DMARC error messages.
For example, Gmail will respond with a message that reads: "smtp;550 5.7.1 Unauthenticated email from yahoo.com is not accepted due to domain's DMARC policy. Please contact administrator of yahoo.com domain if this was a legitimate mail."
So users of Gmail, Hotmail and other DMARC-enabled providers will not only fail to receive messages sent to the mailing list by Yahoo users, but will flood the list with bounce messages, risking to be bounced off the list themselves, Levine said.

Golden amber color with a two finger head with medium retention and leaving laces.
Good aroma of malt, Belgian yeast, fruits and floral hops.
Malty flavor with an elegant bitterness and hints of condiments, Belgian yeast again, guaraná and apples. Dry and bitter aftertaste, nice that has some persistence.
Light towards medium body with good carbonation and a spicy feeling.
Well balanced beer, with a nice flavor and pleasant to drink. Good session ale.

A: Pours a bit cloudy orange to amber color forming a small aired bubbled yellow head. Low retention and many lacings left
S: Sweet on the nose. Toffee, honey, Belgian yeasts, dark fruits (grapes) and flowery hops
T: Follows the nose. Caramel malts, roasted malts, Belgian yeasts. Metallic and biscuity. Grassy hops bitterness
M: Light body. Good carbonation. Good bitter aftertaste

Had the opportunity to try this on tap at the brewpub in Blumenau while on business.
Color is right in the amber range, white fairly thin bubbly head.
Someone earlier described it as hitting you belgian yeasts on the nose and this is exactly what my impression of it was as well.
Taste was pretty true to style, picked up the belgian yeasty notes and a the malts definitely came into play on this one. clean drinking and refreshing, especially in the heat and humidly!
Blumenau itself was settled by Germans,(the town has a giant Oktoberfest each year) so many of their beers reflect that heritage, incredible to see how they brought that culture across the ocean. A really unexpected find, if you are ever in the area, be sure to check it out!

Pours a pale deep golden and copper color that shows a nice fluffy white head with moerdate retention and above average lacing.
Aroma is of cereal grain, bread and biscuity malts followed by floral and citric hops (with orange and lemony notes).
Taste follows aroma starting out with a grainy and kinda stale malt profile followed by the citric/floral hop combination. Finishes with a mild bitterness that lingers somewhat in the aftertaste.
Body is medium to low and carbonation is high. Medium drinkability.
Overall an average pale ale with a malt profile that IMO is kind of stale and grainy, reminding me of a lager. Not much fruity ale-yeast contribution to the beer. The hops are pretty nice in this beer that leans more towards a British Pale Ale than an American.

I was able to try the Eisenbahn Pale Ale at Figuera Restaurant in Sao Paulo. This was a good beer. The appearance was clear copper color with decent carbonation that provided a thin white head that lasted through the beer. The smell was ok, hops were subtle but noticable. The taste was a smooth lightly hopped ale which finished off the pallet very clean. The mouthfeel was very good, this is definitely a session ale.

Got this while in Brazil, at a decent wine, beer, and liquor shop in the downtown area of Larajeiras, Vitoria, E.S.
Pasty white fizzy head of about a finger rises and fades semi quickly over mostly clear golden orange colored beer.
Nose has some light hops, hint of citrus and grassy hops, light malts, and a golden ale like aroma, light and crisp, with a slight cheap lager aroma too.
Taste is fairly light, very crisp and drinkable, a nice refreshing ale taste, a nice Belgian pale ale malty flavor, light Belgian yeast, some light mild grassy hops and a bit of earth, light fruits, with a slight bready malt flavor too. Finishes with some bitterness, a bit of lingering grassy hops, some light malts, and fairly dry and crisp.
Mouth is medium bodied with decent carbonation.
Drink is pretty good, sessionable, a nice dry finish, and goes down very smooth and crisp. This is the best beer so far I've had from Brazil. The nose gets a little extra loss from a light cheap lager aroma, which I'm starting to think might be the water, but otherwise I could really drink this one, even in the crazy heat down there.

12 oz. bottle, thanks Jon,
A: Pours a light amber, light white head, mild lacing.
S: Interesting Belgian yeast notes, grainy malt, grassy hops.
T: On the first sip I expected an APA and was like what is this? Found out it was a Belgian-style pale and the flavours made more sense. Dry earthy hop presence mixes with the sourdought malt in an interesting mix. An APA/BPA hybrid is really what it tastes like. Mild acidity in the aftertaste, with apricot/nectarine.
M: Fizzy, soapy carbonation. Light bodied. Needs smaller bubbles. Off-dry finish.
D: Like all the Eisenbahn beers I've had, the drinkablity is solid, and goes down easy as they say. The 12 oz. lasted for all of 10 minutes. Aside from the mouthfeel problems, it's a nice beer, the flavour is good, which is the most importatnt thing.

On-tap at Mulligan's Irish Pub in Porto Alegre, Brazil. On to the beer:
The head is creamy, thick, and rich on top this hazy gold body. Could it be fools gold? The nose gets a phenolic kick to it. Yep, this is Belgian inspired. Taste like it is too. Actually, I didn't like the taste much as first because I was expecting something sweet and fruity. Instead, I got a lighter imitation of Orval. That means very dry with an echo of apricots, some notes of soap. Then it goes bitter before going sour and acidic.
Somewhat of an acquired taste becasue of the Belgian yeast. Worth trying out. Also known as S.A.P.A. in the United States market.

I was very pleasantly surprised by this South American beer, as I was expecting a lot less. Poured to a golden orange, with good carbonation and a thick foamy head that dissipated fairly quickly. Nose was a nice mix of malty sweet and hoppy fruit. Mouthfeel was full and the malts and hops worked together for slightly bittersweet sensation. Taste was well rounded and the finish smooth along.
Would make a good session beer.

This one was bought and almost immediately consumed quite fresh, while in Brazil. The label initially gave me the impression this was an american pale ale for whatever reason, which clearly is not.
Dark golden with reddish highlights, a head on the small side with good retention and average lacing. The aroma is the first hint this is not an american pale ale; it is closer to a belgian as it is classified here; fruity and malty on the nose, a pleasant medium body that opens into a fairly sweet malty note, evolving into a fruitiness with an occasional bitter kick, all the while maitaining heavier fruity and sweet notes.
Not very complex but quite pleasant, highly drinkable, another nice find from this brewery.

Eisenbahn--South America's Craft Brewery it says on the label. I had no idea what to expect on this but since I had never seen it before, it was definitely worth a try.
Appearance is gold-amber --nice lush head of 1 inch--diminishes quickly. Holds a good amount of foam on the top of the beer. Very nice lace remains all around.
Smell is fairly mild. There is some malty sugary type smell maybe even brown sugar or a hint of maple. Also some floral character too. Nothing too strong.
Extremely pleasant taste. It fits the pale ale description well but definitely has the Belgian characteristic effervescence but its actually a little more subdued than you would find in a Belgian pale.
Pleasant mouthfeel --very quenching-not syrupy and not too dry. Perfect carbonation level. Extremely drinkable. I may have to go back to the store I got this from and buy the rest of their stock.

PLATTSBURGH — A Peru woman was charged with grand larceny and forgery for allegedly stealing money from a blind man.
Angie McKee, 36, was charged Wednesday with third-degree grand larceny and second-degree forgery, both felonies.
In the time leading up to McKee's arrest, two sisters of a local man who is legally blind discovered anomalies with his checking records, Plattsburgh City Police Lt. Scott Beebie said.
When they conducted further research, the two women found checks not authorized by their brother were made out either to McKee or to "cash," Beebie said.
McKee, who is an acquaintance of the family, allegedly stole $7,700 from the victim over the course of several months starting in late 2012, he said.
McKee was arraigned in Plattsburgh City Court and sent to Clinton County Jail. She posted a $16,000 bond Thursday, according to the Clinton County Sheriff's Department.
She is scheduled to appear before Judge Mark Rogers in City Court at 8:30 a.m. April 10.

Resident proposes changes to water withdrawal ordinance
By Meghan Carey , Staff writer
ATKINSON - Voters will have an opportunity this March to firm up the water withdrawal control ordinance they approved in September.
Carol Grant submitted two citizens' petitions for Town Meeting, one that would make the water withdrawal ordinance a health ordinance, and another that adds three amendments to the existing ordinance. It was Grant who petitioned for September's Special Town Meeting at which voters approved the water withdrawal control ordinance by a 2-1 margin.
The new law prevents businesses from extracting water and buying or selling such water. It gives selectmen the power to fine violators $1,000 a day, and residents the power to bring the matter to court if the town fails to enforce the ordinance.
Shortly after the September vote, Atkinson selectmen wrote to the state to find out if the ordinance was enforceable, and were told that it would best be resolved in court between the town and the affected party - likely Hampstead Area Water Co.
The issue of water control first came up when the Hampstead Area Water Co. submitted a preliminary application to the state Department of Environmental Services, seeking permission to install eight wells and withdraw more than 500,000 gallons of water a day. The application was found to be incomplete, but the water company can reapply at any time.
Grant said her petitions were written by the same lawyers who developed the water withdrawal ordinance, the Community Environmental Legal Defense Fund, and should give the town the weight needed to win if it is brought to court.
"It's like putting an extra wall around the castle, with the castle being the ordinance," she said.
Grant's first petition would direct selectmen to adopt the water withdrawal ordinance as a health ordinance.
By state law, selectmen have the right to adopt an ordinance that is necessary to protect the health, welfare and safety of the people, Grant said. An adequate supply of clean drinking water should apply under those conditions, she said. It would also stand alone.
"I think that's a brilliant move, because history shows New Hampshire courts have never overturned a health ordinance," she said.
The other petition Grant submitted would add a large section on how to enforce the ordinance. It makes businesses who deprive a resident of Atkinson or an ecosystem in town of clean water responsible to pay damages. It gives any person in town the right to take action if they believe their right to clean water has been violated.
Planning Board Chairwoman Sue Killam was wary of the amendments during an interview last week. The town can protect water quality, but it can't control water, she said.
"It's all in the water rights and the Groundwater Protection Act," she said. "The state is the entity that can regulate and restrict."
Selectmen Chairman Jack Sapia agreed that water issues are clearly outlined in state law, and he doesn't see a need to make any further changes to the water withdrawal ordinance.
"Let's make sure we work together to stay within legal boundaries," he said. "What expertise does the town have that the state doesn't have?"
