Spéciale Cent Cinquante opens to a fruity, spice nose immediately marked by banana and clove Belgian notes. The fruits in here are full and rounded, with bananas, pineapples, mandarin oranges, pears, apples, cherries, and even touches of melon mingling together, made spicier by white pepper and clove. The sugars also bring a lovely thread of homemade caramel, as well as vanilla, brown sugar, and light cream, making the bottle rim sticky. Some hints of kola nut linger in the background, along with toast crust and rising wheat dough. Hops add a tinge of citrusy grapefruit and bitter pine. As a whole, the nose is delicious, coming across like a vanilla bean ice cream sundae drizzled with caramel and fresh fruit, with just a touch of Bailey's Irish Cream, and makes me want to reach for a spoon.
On the tongue, the beer opens with a surprisingly bitter note, the bananas and cloves joined by pink grapefruit, grapefruit rind, pine, and an almost Flemish-sour note reminiscent of fermented apple cider. The spices are immediately noticeable as well, white pepper and clove biting at the tongue. A good arrangement of alcoholic fruit esters, including mandarin orange, pineapple, banana, pear, and apple add layers of sweetness to help combat the sourness. Toast crust and biscuit float in the background, providing some small level of earthiness. The aftertaste is a continuation of the sour banana and clove notes, joined by a sudden alcoholic waft that floods the nasal cavities, the flavors lingering on the tongue for a good while. Mouthfeel is medium, and carbonation is medium-heavy, fizzing on the tongue.
Overall, this is very good beer, and certainly worthy of a 150th anniversary celebration. Chimay has taken what is already a time-tested recipe and has tweaked it to bring out massive levels of flavor and spice. It says much of the potency of these flavors that not only are they consistent over the course of several mouthfuls, but they do a nice job of masking the 10% ABV, which mainly comes out in the aftertaste, but does add a trifle-like dessert quality to the main flavors. Well worth trying.

Nice Belgian ale. A bit on the darker side than suggested but just a little brown and hazy. I enjoyed it quite a bit. A little on the sweeter side. Bubbly. Refreshing. A good Belgian ale, though not so overwhelming but I can't imagine hardly any Belgian beer fan being disappointed. A good neutral beer. Not to pale, too dark, too bitter, too sweet. Very good balance. A nice post summer sipper into the winter should roll out well with some good Django Reinhardt records especially his solo, duos and trios. Django is the greatest guitar player ever recorded.

750ml bottle. It sure ain't every day that you get to try a new Trappist offering. Best before end of 2015 - who can wait that long?!!!
This beer pours a hazy medium golden straw hue, with three fingers of aggressively puffy, loosely foamy eggshell white head, which settles at due pace, eventually leaving some blotchy patches of sudsy lace around the glass.
It smells of semi-sweet pale malt, soft caramelized dark sugar, zesty white pepper, citrus pith, Poire Williams, mineral water, pineapple, and musty, earthy hops. The taste is lightly caramelized pale/caramel malt, a complex melange of usual suspect banana chip and edgy cloves, citrus, leafy forest floor droppings, pleasantly muddled citrus, further drupe fruit, complementary spice, hovering house (yeah, that house) yeast, an almost prominent mineral character, and leafy, somewhat grassy hops.
The bubbles in this beast, they be present, but well understated, and deftly subtle in the end, the body a decent medium weight, one toying with fullness, and smooth, for the most part, with the alcohol, spice, and hops taking a pass-over to make their individual mark on the game. It finishes on the off-dry side, as the lingering pale malt and fruit work to shed the yeast and hops, with limited success.
A stellar Tripel indeed, with the attendant complexity, and proper decency of heart to totally obfuscate the well elevated ABV for this slowly coming around non-believer. How nice. Anyhoo, a solid, full-on experience of the style, I would put forth, as the recurring theme to me here is the sleight of hand, unseen essence that gently dulls the edges, and my senses at the same time. Entirely worthy of acquiring if you like either the brewer or the style, or maybe need a reminder of why these guys are so well regarded.

750ml bottle for $25 at joe canals
App: deep gold almost amber. The color of ancient sap. Fluffy was that falls quickly to lace.
Smell: Sweet alcohol rules the aroma. Notes of orange and and the sweetness of blossom honey. A touch of tropical flower. Fruity/floral yeast.
Taste: All I can say is the sweetness of marshmallows dipped in honey with a touch of bitterness. Middle to end is the citrus found in the nose-must be the hops. Occasional dose of sweet alcohol. Honey graham cracker aftertaste. Almost perfect. Could use a bit more bitterness and it's plagued by an overly sugar flavor.
Mouthfeel: Medium body that comes from the malt and carbonation. The bubbles add body then quickly fight to be free, bursting on the tongue to add a refreshing dryness. A bit sticky, but I'll have to try some other tripels and compare.

A Chimay unlike any other. A Trappist yeast, very fresh smelling. A big head and lace. Bubble gum and fruity tasting, a little dry in the finish.Above average mouthfeel. A quality Belgian ale through and through. Thanks Peenstein (through his friend visiting Europe).
I had this ago from the LCBO, good through 2015, and it was good but very boozy.

On tap at World of Beer Raleigh
A - dark orange with a soft, white, thin lacing of head
S - banana, grapes, apple, straw
T - apple, banana, straw, faint coriander, bitter hops, a little herbal
M - smooth, well carbonated, warming alcohol in the finish
This is a nice, simple tripel. I like this better than their usual tripel. It has a more fruit forward yeastiness and rather bitter hop finish. The alcohol is intense as the beer warms, but it doesn't really detract from the flavor. This is a tripel worth looking into.

Box Score - Text Box - Game Sheet
ORONO, Maine -- The University of Maine men's ice hockey team dropped a 3-1 decision to Bentley on Friday night at Alfond Arena in Orono, Maine. The Black Bears fall to 10-9-2 on the season with the loss, while Bentley improves to 9-11-1.
Bentley took a 1-0 lead at 17:01 of the first period. Bobby Preece and Anthony Canzoneri teamed up to find Jeff Gumaer, who beat Maine goalie Dave Wilson (Caledon East, Ontario). Gumaer gave the Falcons a 2-0 lead at 19:47 of the first when his shot went just to the left of Wilson and inside the goal post, giving Bentley the 2-0 lead. Maine outshot Bentley 11-7 in the first period, but the Falcons took the 2-0 lead into the first intermission.
The two teams skated through a scoreless second period, with each team recording nine shots on goal. Wilson came up big for the Black Bears, stopping a Bentley two-on-one odd-man rush.
Maine cut the Bentley lead to 2-1 at 9:59 of the third period when Brian Flynn (Lynnfield, Mass.) scored his seventh goal of the season on a give-and-go from Spencer Abbott (Hamilton, Ontario). Jeff Dimmen (Colorado Springs, Colo.) also assisted on the goal for the Black Bears.
The Falcons got an empty-net goal at 19:14 from Erik Peterson to ensure the victory. Dustin Cloutier assisted on the play.
Maine's Dave Wilson made 21 saves in goal and falls to 2-3-0 on the season. Bentley's Kyle Rank made 35 saves for the Falcons.
Maine outshot Bentley 36-24 in the game. The Black Bears were 1-6 on the power play, while Bentley was 0-for-3.
The Black Bears return to action on Sunday, Jan. 18 when they host Providence at 2 p.m. at Alfond Arena. Tickets remain available for the game and can be purchased at the door. Tickets purchased in advance are buy one, get one free.

Fly Creek
As a regular user of the small post office in Fly Creek, a village just northwest of Cooperstown, Les Sittler has come to rely on the services it provides for the letters and packages he drops off daily for his nearby law practice.
But the Fly Creek postal station has been swept up by the nation-wide push to reduce the overhead of the U.S. Postal Service. A notice issued by the Postal Service states that the Fly Creek Post Office, effective Oct. 5, will have its weekday hours slashed in half, from being open eight hours a day to four, as part of a "realignment."
Sittler said the decision to target the Fly Creek station is inexplicable, given the operation turns a profit for the Postal Service.
"Why are they cutting back hours if they are making money?" the veteran lawyer asked.
Contacted by The Daily Star, a Postal Service spokeswoman, Maureen Marion, said the plan to cut hours was aired at a community meeting organized by the Postal Service in Fly Creek in June.
Following that meeting, 419 survey forms were sent out to Fly Creek area residents, resulting in 149 people completing the surveys and returning them. Marion said most people agreed that the plan to cut back the hours of the Fly Creek station was the most suitable option.
Among the other options listed, she acknowledged, was closing the station.
Sittler said the significant reduction in office hours at the local post office will greatly inconvenience local residents, particularly in the summertime, when traffic and limited parking in Cooperstown present obstacles to those who wish to use the postal facility there.
The lawyer has succeeded in persuading Rep. Chris Gibson, R-Kinderhook, to delve into the situation. In a letter to Gibson, Sittler wrote: "We would like the Postal Service not to punish us just because they are having problems elsewhere."

Founded in 1975, CEP America today is one of the largest providers of acute care management and staffing solutions in the nation, with more than 2,300 providers at over 100 practice locations in nine states, serving over 5 million patients annually.
CEP America is a democratic physician Partnership, with ownership of the Partnership and our subsidiaries distributed equitably among the practicing physicians. There are no outside owners or investors, so all income from the practice - after operational expenses and billing and malpractice costs - is fully returned to our physicians.
This Partnership structure provides an inherent incentive to meet the expectations of our client hospitals and patients. The Partnership has no debt, and all capital needs for business purposes are self-financed. Our practice management company is owned by the Partnership, which, in turn, is owned by all physician Partners. CEP America has no physician employees, as all physicians are Partners from the day they work their first clinical shift.
Innovators in Acute Care
CEP America includes some of the finest leaders in hospital-based medicine, with numerous CEP America Partners serving as chief of the medical staff at their practice locations. Our Partners have also served as President of the California Chapter of the American College of Emergency Physicians (CAL/ACEP), the Georgia Chapter of ACEP as well as National ACEP, and are active in EMS in the various counties we serve. All CEP America Partners are dedicated to our mission to exceed the expectations of our patients, partners, and customers across emergency, urgent, inpatient, and post-discharge settings.
We continually achieve top rankings on national performance measures in clinical, operational, and health care service delivery. Our client hospitals have received top awards from Press Ganey, HealthGrades, VHA, Avatar International, and many others.
Local Group Autonomy
Each of our practice locations is unique, and the CEP America relationship is often transparent to the medical staff and hospital personnel. Our Partners establish a solid local presence within the community and retain the best characteristics of the most well-regarded single-site physician groups in the nation's premier hospitals, but with one major difference: CEP America medical directors and clinical physicians can access a large network of management expertise and resources to support their efforts to deliver the best practices in hospital-based medicine.
What Clients Say
"CEP really blew away the competition with their model, their philosophy about the kind of relationships that they want to have with their physicians. We looked at that and realized that we as a hospital didn't want to try to compete with that."
The Acute Care Continuum
The Acute Care Continuum is the integration of urgent, emergent, inpatient, and post-discharge care of patients with acute medical conditions.
Service Lines
About CEP America
CEP America strives to be the recognized leader in acute care medicine and to exceed the expectations of our patients, Partners, and customers in emergency, inpatient, ambulatory, and urgent care.

Upcoming chips for PCs and servers from Intel and Advanced Micro Devices support only DDR3 memory and the companies did not share any further information about DDR4 support. AMD is working closely with memory partners to support memory transitions and expects to see the benefits of DDR4 in its graphics products, a spokesman said.
"Motherboards and chipsets that support DDR4 are not expected to show up in the marketplace until late 2013 or early 2014, which does not bode well for rapid adoption of DDR4," Matas said.
Test samples for DDR4 memory first appeared in 2011 from companies like Micron and Samsung even before the specification was finalized. DRAM makers have been hanging in the balance since and are now prodding Intel and other integrated-circuit suppliers to bring chipset support for DDR4 quickly.
The DDR4 market could aggressively grow if and when the PC market picks up again, which could be any time from later this year to 2016, Matas said.
"That's a big 'if' because tablet and smartphone unit shipments continue to grow aggressively, usually at the expense of standard PC shipments," Matas said.
JEDEC is also developing a new LPDDR4 specification for tablets and smartphones and it will be many years before DRAM is used in mobile devices. Device makers still largely use LPDDR2, and are switching over to LPDDR3 memory. Some DRAM momentum will move in the direction of LPDDR3, analysts said.
There are also opportunities being explored to make DRAM for computers faster and more relevant. Manufacturers are backing technologies like Hybrid Memory Cube, which involves 3D stacking of DRAM and placing the memory closer to the CPU. Starting with DDR3, HMC arrays will support multiple forms of memory including DDR4 and will provide faster bandwidth than traditional DRAM via an interconnect that cuts through the memory layers. HMC is backed by the Hybrid Memory Cube Consortium, but other technologies being investigated by JEDEC include High-Bandwidth Memory and Wide-I/O, which have not attracted as much attention.
But for now, JEDEC remains focused on transitioning to DDR4, iSuppli's Howard said.
DRAM could have reached its ceiling with DDR4 and there is a possibility that a new form of memory will replace DRAM after DDR4, Howard said. Also, there are challenges in scaling down DRAM as manufacturing technologies improve.
"DDR5 is highly unlikely," Howard said.

Perhaps the best 5.7 in the Gunks. This climb is just a few minutes from the road - you'll pass Disneyland and a number of inside and outside corners. Immediately past Yellow Ridge is the huge roof of Fat Stick. The route is most easily recognized by the left-leaning offwidth crack about 15' off the deck. P1: There are two ways to start. On the right is a left-facing corner leading up to a small roof - you traverse left under the roof to the offwidth crack (5.7 and reasonably protected). A more direct start traverses on thin holds (no protection) to the rib below the offwidth crack and then up. This is 5.7 and scary but a good spot will keep you safe. In either case, attack the offwidth above. At a horizontal you can either traverse right out of the crack and climb the face or be like Fritz and power up the offwidth. Both of these are about 5.7. Most people choose the face. Continue to a good ledge just above the offwidth, and belay here. P2: Climb a corner to a roof about 20' above the good ledge. Instead of pulling through the roof, traverse up and left about 50' to a another good ledge. 5.7, 120'. P3: Make thin moves traversing to the left edge of the ledge, and climb up just right of the obvious ridge for about 10'. Traverse left to the arete, passing a pin. Follow this up past another old pin to a roof (fortunately much easier than it looks!) and then on to the top. 5.7, 80'. From the top, walk climbers' right along the clifftop until it is possible to easily scramble back down to the base, just before the road.
Standard Gunks rack. No need for offwidth pro.
A great climb. I recommend the right-hand start (up a left-facing corner, traverse left under a roof) to get to the offwidth crack. I used two #2 Camalots on this pitch: one in the initial corner, and one in a horizontal crack above the fixed pin in the offwidth. I also used a #3.5 Camalot (same as a #4 C4 Camalot) at the base of the offwidth to protect the moves up to the fixed pin. Face climbing right of the offwidth is probably a little easier than climbing directly up the crack. You can shorten the first pitch and belay on the first good ledge after the offwidth. This will let you communicate with and watch your second as they climb the offwidth. A 5.4 second pitch goes up a corner and left to a ledge. From here, finish with the last pitch as described above.
HIGHLY recommend doing the "optional" belay at the top of the offwidth; otherwise, the rope drag is only slightly less than paralyzing. Also disagree with the opinion above that the right-hand start (to the right of the arete, up the left-facing dihedral, move right to left under roof to arete) is "5.6". It's harder than any of the other starts listed in the various Williams' guides - but it has gear.
Agree that the right hand start is a bit harder than 5.6, but I don't think it was harder than 5.7. It gears well regardless. Like Ron, I used a large cam (#4 Friend) at the base of the offwidth, then put a medium cam in the horizontal on the right midway up the offwidth. Both placements are bomber, so the offwidth is totally safe. I did the route in two pitches as described above, without the optional belay, and had absolutely no problems with rope drag. But I didn't put a ton of pro in while climbing the corner above the offwidth. YMMV.
A fun route overall, with P1 having a bit of a scary crux. P3 has what appears to be an intimidating line, but this is not the case.
Great route- The offwidth wasn't that bad, only a couple of moves and it's over. Found the thin traverse at the start of the last pitch to be the crux of the climb, good hands but bad feet for a couple of moves. The roof was very cool, easier than many 5.6 roofs I've been through in da' Gunks.
I agree that the right start nudges up towards 5.8 - I had some trouble when I led it, and corners are usually good to me.
Denis O has posted a photo of the "direct start" which is basically straight up the rounded nose to the offwidth. This might be 5.7+ or so; it's not described in the new purple Nears guide, but I remember reading about it somewhere. It's a bit necky, in that you make the first of two very balancey moves with gear at your knees but the second a bit above the gear, arguably in groundfall range. Still I think it's safer than the sketchy traverse in from the left. ADVICE - If there's any chance your second may fall below the offwidth, DO NOT combine the first two pitches. They'll hit the ground before you even know they've fallen.
I did the right hand up the corner start - it's a bit thin on feet, but definitely not a 5.8. The off-width protects well even with smaller gear - I used my #4 at the base (but there was a small cam placement to the left of the crack to back up the pin) and #.75 mid-crack (#1 would have been better but I used it on the under the roof traverse). I ended up off-widthing it as I was too short to reach for face holds. The P3 traverse is exciting! BTW, P2 is 5.5 and P3 is 5.6 in the new Nears book, ratings that I agree with.
Full value for the grade. The offwidth at the start is pretty damn tough.
Just followed the route this weekend and am taking my above comment back - the traverse from the right hand corner start is damn hard! Can't believe I had led it on a 100 degree sweltering summer day. The OW is still a lot of fun. BETA ALERT: the OW is easier if you jam the left side of the body and use little footsteps on the right edge of the crack. Jamming the right side of the body is tougher. YMMV.
1st pitch off width is tough. the traverse to belay ledge is 5.3ish. 2nd or final pitch is awesome really a super thin, exciting climb. All of a 5.7
no move on the corner start may be harder than 5.7, but you do place your gear from unpleasant stances. (there is plenty of it. totally G.) i mistakenly led the offwidth with my right leg jammed. i found this to be strenuous, secure, and difficult to get out of at the top. i agree with dolgio's assessment that (if you want to offwidth it), the left side in may be more... fun?
What a climb...just good fun. From the looks of the photos here, we obviously did P3 a bit different. On the face with horizontals going out to the arete I went pretty much straight up to the small roof and then traversed out. Gear is sparse if you do this. I managed a 00 master cam up in the corner before the traverse and that wasn't exactly 'ideal' but it made me feel better! It's definitely a 'hand' traverse with very little for your feet. If you go this way just keep moving ...dial it in and focus and get the big holds on the corner arete. Gives the grade a "+" in my book.
Great climb! Initial traverse start felt 5.6 if you find the right handholds (i.e. not the undercling). Otherwise easily harder. A #4 would definitely be nice for the start of the offwidth. I tried getting my whole body in the offwidth and found it very uncomfortable. Thought the pro on the final pitch was a little sparse at times, though it was getting late in the day, so maybe I just wasn't looking carefully enough. There are a few pins to clip.
Strenuous moves off the deck and that OW was a toughy. I'd give the right hand corner start a 5.8 rating, but the first ten feet don't count to the overall grade. The final pitch traverse is money. Feet on the traverse are great you just can't see them. Hero jugs through the final overhang. The best 7 in the Gunks.
I've always climbed the nose at the start. You begin just left of the nose, move up, and step just right of the nose to finish. The gear wouldn't stop you from hitting the ground from later moves. It's 5.7. I've always off-widthed right side in, which follows the granite conventional wisdom about having your back on a protruding offset. Given the prevalence of holds in the Gunks, the granite wisdom may not apply, but in any case the two or three offwidth moves are very elementary. You do end up turning around at the top since there is a ledge to the right of the crack. I don't remember about gear but never had anything like a big cam up there; a standard gunks rack with pieces up to yellow camalot size ought to do the trick...
I don't know Rich. Getting out to the Nose the way you describe is pretty easy. However I have not found the 2 or 3 moves up necessary to gain a stance and get gear in to be trivial at the 5.7 level. Plus the landing really sucks. Jagged boulders are not soft. To be able to keep it safe at the grade level I think you may be better off with the start on the right, up the left-facing corner. Maybe I'll have to go back and give the Nose start another go to judge appropriately. It has been a number of years since I have gone that way. Regarding John's comment regarding a "good spot" I'm not sure how you can manage that with your climber six feet above you. Heck, with the left hand start as dicey and delicate as it is, if I remember correctly, it actually has some sort of pro. Something that is missing on the Nose start.

On the same day they released a pair of defensive linemen, the Broncos re-signed DT Kevin Vickerson, who signed a two-year contract to remain in Denver. The terms of the deal have not yet been released.
The 6-5, 321-pounder started 12 games for the Broncos last season and recorded 42 tackles, two sacks and one interception.
They way we see it
The decision to keep Vickerson, rather than DTs Jamal Williams and Justin Bannan, likely had a lot to do with age. The organization is trying to get younger on defense and Vickerson, 28, is the youngest of the three.

Baeolophus inornatus
IUCN Conservation Status: Least Concern
Susanne Meyer
Nondescript save for its crest, the Oak Titmouse might not wow many bird watchers at first sight. But these vocal, active birds characterize the warm, dry oak woods from southern Oregon to Baja California—they're "the voice and soul of the oaks," according to one early naturalist. Mates pair for life, and both partners noisily defend their territory year-round. The Oak Titmouse and the nearly identical Juniper Titmouse of the Great Basin were once treated as a single species, the Plain Titmouse.
Oak Titmice are small songbirds with short, stubby bills, a short crest on the head, and a medium-long tail.
Oak Titmice are plain gray-brown birds. They are slightly darker above than below, and may show a slight buffy wash on the flanks.
Active and constantly moving in flocks, Oak Titmice eat seeds and insects that they glean from bark and leaves. Listen for their rapid, harsh calls as they mix in foraging flocks with other small songbirds such as warblers.
Oak Titmice are strongly tied to oak trees, although they also live in areas of open pine or mixed oak-pine forest. The species is almost entirely restricted to dry slopes in California, though it ranges north to Oregon and south to Baja California as well.
The Juniper Titmouse of the Great Basin used to be considered the same species as the Oak Titmouse. The two look extremely similar, but generally do not overlap except in extreme northern California. Juniper Titmice average slightly grayer, and their calls are different. Plumbeous Vireos and Gray Vireos have heavier bills and show more contrast than Oak Titmice, with pale spectacles and white wingbars. Bushtits are smaller and thinner, with even shorter, stubbier bills and more frenetic actions than Oak Titmice. Bushtits do not have a crest.
Within their restricted range Oak Titmice visit feeders with sunflower seeds and other birdseeds, particularly when tree cover is nearby. They prefer seeds on raised trays or tubes rather than ground feeders. Oak Titmice often take up residence in nest boxes.
To see Oak Titmice, visit oak forests of the Pacific slope between southern Oregon and Baja California, especially around the Central Valley of California. Look for the drab birds as they flit energetically from tree to tree in search of food, and listen for them calling or singing noisily from a high perch.

Justice Sykes and the significance of the CURE rulingRAULSTON NEMBHARD
Citizens United for the Reduction of Electricity (CURE) has scored a decisive victory in their court challenge of the JPS exclusive licence to generate electricity. The members of the group are to be congratulated for taking the issue on in the first place and to stay doggedly with it until they were able to secure this significant victory. Attorney Hugh Wildman must be singled out for special mention, for he bent his skills as a lawyer to the process and did the necessary research, even going back to obscure colonial legislation to ensure that he had all his ducks properly lined up. This, no doubt, was a lot of work for which, to the best of my knowledge, he was not compensated. He took it on as a service to the people of Jamaica and having won, he and his coalition deserve our highest praises.
The eminent Justice Bryan Sykes' ruling in this matter was important for a number of reasons. First, there is the triumph of the Rule of Law. Because the justice system is so broken in Jamaica we often forget how important the Rule of Law is in the protection of the citizens in matters of commerce and social engagement. CURE was convinced that the JPS exclusive monopoly was illegal; that they should not have been granted this monopoly by any government. The place to test this contention was in the courts and to do this there had to be more than a fair assumption that justice would be done, that the parameters of Jamaican jurisprudence, however creaky and ramshackle, could be depended on to render the right verdict. And Justice Sykes did not disappoint. We score one for the Jamaican justice system, even as the JPS appeals his ruling which is its right again in tandem with our creaky jurisprudence.
It is safe to say that the justice system is among the most important institutions that survived our Independence experience. Apart from the obvious hiccups as can be seen in people being sentenced to prison for stealing a few dozen ackees, our justice system has served us well. Our lawyers and judges are among the brightest you can find anywhere. They can match their counterparts anywhere in the world with erudition and sagacity in a courtroom. This is one of the reasons that I oppose the CCJ as our final appellate court. We have the talent in Jamaica that, with refinement and improvement of our justice infrastructure, should make our Supreme Court a viable final appellate jurisdiction. If we are to repatriate our appellate jurisdiction from colonialist Britain, why should we end up in a half-way house in Trinidad or Tobago and not in Kingston? Why don't we think that we can go this on our own? The people should be the final arbiter of this decision and I hope that a government that trumpets "people power" does not discard them in this most important matter concerning their lives.
Apart from the triumph of the Rule of Law, Justice Sykes' ruling is important for the freeing up of competition in the energy sector. For years the JPS has been one of the most vilified companies in Jamaica and for good reason. The company has not always treated its customers with respect. You have to wait interminably in lines to get any attention paid to problems with the company. Customer service has improved marginally, but there is still a great deal of lethargy in the way customers' needs are attended to. This treatment of the public is no doubt due to the disdain that comes, wittingly or unwittingly, from the monopolistic psychology of dominance that the company has been allowed to exercise - an activity which we now understand from Justice Sykes has been illegal all this time. The Cable and Wireless monopoly over telecommunications is a case study of what can happen to a monopoly when it becomes too smug in its own comfort zone until it starts to listen to its own voice. I predict a similar discomfort for the JPS when new players are introduced into the system.
It is ironic or perhaps fortuitous that the minister who last signed the JPS exclusive contract in a previous government is the same person who has now been given a free hand to revisit that contract and truly democratise the energy sector. People should not think that Justice Sykes' ruling gives minister Paulwell a carte blanche approach that can ride roughshod over the sensibilities of the JPS. The matter still has to be approached with great caution so that there is fairness to all concerned and there is no disruption of electricity services to the people. But this is a great day. The minister must realise that he has been given a second chance at redemption. He should use it wisely.
Perhaps the most exciting and significant thing arising out of Justice Sykes' ruling is the fact that civil society groups can mount successful challenges to governmental action in the courts. Had it not been for the doggedness of CURE, we may very well not have reached this significant milestone in citizen advocacy. This and future governments are being served a warning that as citizens we are not prepared to sit on the sidelines while they do as they please with the people's future. The lesson is that we can challenge them in the courts - and win! This for me is true emancipation and the ruling could not have come at a better time in the nation's history. Long live citizens' advocacy for a new Jamaica!

Many Vermonters are used to this type of snowstorm, the kind that brings some serious accumulation, slower travel times and issues on the roads.
Like what one plow driver ran into in Milton. The Milton Fire Department says the plow truck collided with a pickup truck. The driver of the truck had to be extricated from the vehicle and was treated for a broken arm with possible neck and back injuries. Both drivers, however, are said to be doing well at this time.
Drivers ran into trouble all over the state.
"One of the problems we really saw is when the traffic was backed up people started hitting the U-turns and that causes some serious problems for us on the interstate," Vt. State Police Sgt. Garry Scott said.
As far as winter goes, however, Wednesday's storm is the kind that many hope for. It is the quintessential "winter wonderland," complete with powder and fresh white blankets of snow. Compared to what we have seen so far this winter, some VTrans crews call this a piece of cake.
"This is actually a typical storm for us. We like these kinds of storms, ones that's straight snow coming at us, no rain, no freezing rain or ice involved," said Dave Blackmore of VTrans.
And we may see another storm hit the area this weekend, which could interrupt travel plans. Weather elsewhere was the only snag at the Burlington airport, but what should you do if you have a flight out of Burlington this weekend?
"Certainly call ahead, communicate with your airline, not necessarily the airport. I expect there are going to be some more delays and cancellations because it's supposed to be a significant storm, so it's good to just check ahead," said Gene Richards of the Burlington International Airport.

A Delta County Game Warden is recovering in the hospital after being shot in what officials believe to be a hunting accident early Sunday evening.
Delta County Sheriff Ricky Smith tells KLTV 7 that Game Warden Chris Fried is stable after being shot in the chest while he was bow hunting. It happened around 6:00 p.m. at the Cooper Wildlife Management Area, in between Paris and Sulphur Springs. Fried was flown to Hopkins County Memorial, where he was listed as stable before he was taken to Parkland Memorial Hospital. There's no word on his exact condition at this time.
Sheriff Smith says at this time they do not believe the shooting was intentional, but officials will continue interviewing people hunting in the area.
Sheriff Smith says Fried was off duty at the time of the shooting.
