Bottle courtesy Trappistenbier, a big Thanks to Filip for bringing this from your home country.
A: Pours very deep dark black with a towering brown head. The retenion is great with spotty lace noted. Nice.
S: Nothing like your normal ho hum Guinness. Bold aromas with hints of coffee, chocolate, and dark fruit.
T: Taste of nice sweet malt and brown sugar. Hints of coffee and chocolate as well. Mild in taste but a good blend of flavors.
M: Medium in body, pretty smooth.
D: Nice treat, wish this was on tap in every bar in America instead of our version of Guinness.

Ordered from an online "Belgium" "Shop" and arrived in 15 days. Pours an inky black that is impervious to light. Large frothy light tan head that laces down to a hefty little ring. Smells lightly of sweet roasted burnt malts and some vague hop bitterness. Mouth feel is light to medium with a minimal amount of silkiness to it. Nice roasted coffe notes on the tongue with a dry finish of chocolate and dark fruit. Aftertaste dwells on the roasted side. Hides the 8% pretty well. Would really like to try this out of a nitro tap or can, I think I just blew my own mind. Better than it's little brother. All in all it is a good beer, I'm glad I tried it, but I don't feel like I was missing out on much.

12 (11. something?) oz. bottle.
Opaque, darkest brown leaning towards black, liquid. Large, cocoa colored head. Very creamy. Good lacing, modest legs.
Fruity scent (raisins & figs) at first pour. Dark chocolate. Bit of earthy funk. Alcohol. Roast character/coffee, milder than expected.
Taste brought the roast flavor to front and center. Overall, more bitter than sweet. Dark chocolate was next note, followed by coffee - mild, but espresso like. Strong herbal bittering at the finish. Alcohol.
Medium to full body. Medium carbonation. Not very dry.
Not your typical Guiness by a long shot! Very complex. I enjoyed it, but wouldn't describe it as a top stout for my taste. My preference tends towards more sweet elements in a stout.

Picked up a bottle from Drinks of the World.
I dont know if this beer has been mistreated, but it certainly doesn't live up to my expectations. It poured a nice black body with tn head that left lacing, but it was downhill from there. The flavor and aroma especially are dominated by a thick caramel note with chocolate and coffee roast faint around the palate. Still, this beer was surprisingly drinkable and not bad overall - just nothing special.

Take your normal Guinness and put it on steroids. Darker. Thicker. Sweeter. Then make it only availible in Belgium and (where I found it) West Germany to torment beer drinkers everywhere else, and you have Guinness Special Export.
Coloring is almost completely black, with a strong tan head. Scent is pretty much identical to taste in every way, strong but not overpowering, dark fruits, coffee, chocolate. This beer is thick and creamy, to the point that it severely hurts the drinkability. Nice to sit down with one and relax, but this is by no means an every day sipper or a drink to get drunk sort of beer.

Small capped bottle. Poured into a snifter.
It is almost pitch black, except for some faint reddish-brown highlights on the edges; tan fluffy head occupies a large part of the top of the glass, slowly comes down leaving an enormous amount of lacing on its wake.
Aroma comes right out as you pour it, vibrant but not overpowering, dark fruits that somehow feel fresh, coffee and lots of chocolate, but milk chocolate, not bittersweet.
Medium bodied but easy going, it starts relatively sweet with the same milk chocolate notes, evolving into some fruitiness and then turning quite dry and roasted, which lingers a long time.
Easily the best Guiness out there, and a very nice midway between the extremely flavorful but "poorly drinkable" imperials and the less flavorful but quaffable "regular" stouts. Lots of flavor but still goes down easy.

Thanks to goryshkewych for this one!
This one looks black at a glance, but a nice, nutty red wine comes through when held to the light. The head is an irregular tan film.
Smells of molasses, pungent sour coffee, cherry pie and sour grains.
Tastes of a similar blend of molasses, caramel, red grapes and day old coffee.
Feels a tad viscous with a frothy carbonation that appears out of nowhere and jams things up a bit.
Fun to try, but not one I'll seek out again.

Pours black and is completely opaque. A large two inch frothy tan head sits on top with excellent retention and some nice lacing.
The aroma is quite nice. Notes of banana, clove, and dark roasted malts are all present.
The taste is also quite nice. Hints of banana, dark roasted malts with chocolate flavors that are fairly bitter. Delicious.
Mouthfeel is medium bodied with good carbonation.
Drinkability is moderate due to moderately high alcohol and big flavor. A pleasant evening drink.

11.2 oz bottle courtesy of ggaughan. Thanks, I owe you for this rare and special experience. Pour a super dark brown. Light does NOT pierce the glass. Huge light brown head that leaves lacing throughout. It slowly diminishes to a thin soapy blanket to keep the beer cozy. Carbonation is not really evident but it had to be there cause the blanket stays and thickens a bit after each sip.
Smell is coffee, burnt caramel, roasted and sweet malt and a specter of alcohol. Faint hops in the back somewhere.
Taste is top shelf. Sweet malt and light, basically hidden alcohol sugar. Roasted malt, and toasted yeasty black bread. Coffee is strong. Hops are present and in balance but are a minor player in the body of the drink. They are more prominent in the finish where they cut off the sweet malt alcohol serenade sharply. The finish is long and hoppy dry. Delicious!
Moutfeel is creamy velvet and oh so smooth. Carbonation whips the cream and coats your mouth with nectar like drops of stouty goodness.
Drinkability is incredible. The alcohol is craftily hidden and the smooth creamy mouth experience will have you through as many bottles as you head can handle.
A world class stout. In the same neighborhood as the Brooklyn BCS in the stout hall of fame

I have been attempting to hunt this one down for quite a while now, and it always seems to be alluding me. I am not a fan of Guinness by any means, so the chance to try one that was so highly rated was a chance I had to take. The pour was very nice, a little bit more of a dark brown then your standard jet black pour, but still essentially opaque with a thick tan head that reached a height of easily over three inches. Really a very impressive looking stout with copious amounts of side glass lace and a very evenly distributed head of lace. Really very nice indeed.
The aroma was rich chocolate and roasted malts that were predominant here. Lots of lactose aromas and a touch of coffee were present as well, this was night and day from the version we get here. The flavor was really very nice. Not nearly as dry and bitter as I was expecting, this was much more of a sweet stout, with dark chocolate hints running throughout. There was a good deal of coffee notes, lots of lactose, deep roasted malts and a touch of sweet vanilla as well. As it warmed there was some nice dark fruit coming though in the finish, more then likely a good bit of yeast. The finish was very sweet, with a smooth creamy long lasting flavor. The body on this one was really full, and nicely carbonated, much different then the dry, bitter version I had been used to.
Overall, I thought this was fantastic. A far cry from the crappy version we get here. This was really a solid beer with a great flavor profile and a full body. I would love to have this again as it is truly deserving of its reputation and worth every penny.

Purchased from Beer Temple in Brugge
Poured from a Bottle into a pint glass
Appearance - Dark black color with a thick medium brown colored head that lasted a long time.
Smell - Smells of coffee, roasted malt, chocolate and hops.
Taste - Chocolate, roasted malt, some spice and a stronger than normal amount of alcohol kick compaired to a normal Guinness. Has a heavy after taste of dark roasted malts.
Mouthfeel - Creamy mouth coating feel. I like how this one feels in my mouth. Just the right amount of carbonation for a stout. Very nice.
Drinkability - I wish all Guinness tasted like this. I would drink it more often if I could find this version here in the states.

Bottle courtesy of thewolf: Poured a deep black color stout with a huge light brown color head with good retention and some lacing. Aroma of liquorice with some light roasted malt and some sweet malt notes. Taste is a mix between some light roasted malt with some notes of liquorice and medium sweet Belgian malt with what appears to be a Belgian type yeast. Medium full body with great carbonation and no apparent alcohol. A very well balance beer overall with a level of complexity greater then the regular version of Guinness available over here.

Black porter looking beer with a thin tan head. Roasty nose with some burnt edges. Tastes like regular Guinness with more body, more roast, added baking chocolate, and not as much sour tang - almost none in fact except where the bitterness of the roasted malts come into play. Not unlike an imperial stout, but perhaps on the milder side of that.

Dark brown, near black, with a creamy tan head. Good lace.
Musky Hops, big malt structure, spicy Blegian yeast and
Chocolate, black ,roasted and wheat malts complimented well by earthy hops. Good peppery yeast presence with dark fruits and candy.
Full with a nice dry finish. Nice light carbonation.
This is what Guinness should be. Why do they even bother making anything else?

Poured into a chalice a nice black color, nice small creamy tannish head, which leaves some nice sticky lacing afterwards. The nose is malty, sweet, slight scents of toffee, chocolate, caramel. The taste is sweet, malty, and some nice dark tones to it. Medium body. Very drinkable, this one is way better than the original. Highly recommended.

delicious looking opaque brown with a thick creamy tan head that hangs around and laces.
first sniff reveals a fruity dubbel smelling beer, but that subsides quickly leaving you with a fantastic malt ball, roasted coffee, milk chocolate stout, with some subtle plum and fig type dark fruits. rum develops with warmth, maybe a little to much actually
the taste contains lots of malty chocolate and soft roasted coffee with a slightly lactic component. there's a brown sugary character thats plays off of a musky, slightly smokey flavor. it has a hint of dark fruit (same as aroma, plus maybe some black cherry) to keep things even more interesting. the sweet rum flavor comes out with warmth just like the aroma.
the mouthfeel is fairly full with pretty moderate, but delicate carbonation.
good drinkability overall. the nose is a little boozy, but that's forgivable. i can't believe our guinness is so much different from the belgian variety... the difference is like night and day.

I am a little excited to try this beer; I bought it from CrackedKettle.com and it is the very much coveted Guinness Special Export Stout. After cracking it open, my first whiff told me that this was like a Belgian dark ale with the fruty nose but on a second sniff I am catching the roasted malts, milk, caramel, a bit of coffee and a bit of chocolate. Predominantly, I am getting milk and roasted malts. I do not think the smell was as strong as the FES but I like it on this one. The pour yielded a creamy rocky head (creamier than the FES) that refuses to settle (this has to be a family trait in Guinness brews). Almost jet black in color; very nice appearance and a nice lacing turned up after drinking it for a bit. I took a sip and man the first thing I notice was the ultra slick mouthfeel on entry and throughout till I swallowed it. Before getting to the taste I am already going to give a 5 to mouthfeel. Let's break my usual rules and do the mouthfeel first. Unlike many beer that goes in with a slight sting, the SES was just smooth, so very smooth creamy, milky entry of the rich and thick stout. A low but apt amount of carbonation for this one and the milky creamy smoothness with the thick richness is the winner for the mouthfeel of this one. The taste starts off with roasted malts and some hints of chocolate and coffee which is constantly flooded with this lactic milkiness backing which I loved. Best of all the bitterness was so well contained it was well acceptable by my standards. Compared to the FES this one's a pleasure to drink and it's drinkability is nothing but a 5. The taste was rich yet mellower than the FES which gets a bit stingy at times. Some very faint dark fruits (I found plums which came on just before the finish and lasted into the after taste) which got onto the nose though I think if this one has a proper sweet fruitiness to it, I am almost certain taste would score a 5 as well. Goodness... But talking about sweetness this one does have a tad bit of sweetness. The dark fruits were in the after taste led by plums wich are blended amidst roasted malts and lactic milkiness which was pretty omni-present but very nicely balanced. The milkiness found its way to the nose as the fruitiness became a little raisin like; almost analagous to the dark belgian ales. Bitterness was there but well under control. A stout brewed close to perfection; a pity it is so hard for me to obtain this one.

(Served in a nonic)
A- This beer has an opaque black body with tiny strands of bubbles gliding up the sides of the glass. There is a creamy oatmeal colored head that is thick and last for the full beer. There are register marks of foam on the glass with each sip.
S- The smell of fruity prunes turns into a smooth dark black malt smell with a light earthiness.
T- The dark black malt has an earthy note and a cream taste. There are some caramel malt notes that support the black malt. There is a faint roasted licorice note and a finish of black bitterness and a chalk note. The black roasted note lingers nicely after the finish.
M- This beer has a light mouthfeel with a slight slippery texture. There is a soft spice of alcohol heat at the finish.
D- This beer has a great roasted black malt flavor with smooth quality and a nice bitterness. This is not a full bodied Guinness often enhanced with NO2 but a much lighter bodied but still full flavored Guinness. Very drinkable even at 8% ABV.

Black colored beer with a brown head that completely fills the glass. Don't know what they can do to make it look any better.
Sweet smelling with lots of coffee and candied fruit aroma. Fair amount of fig aroma with some chocolate and molasses smell. Slight boozy Kahlua scent with a trace of rum.
The taste starts out sweet and roasty toasty chocolate flavor with a little vanilla and caramel. Lots of flavor here gets a bit more bitter as you drink it and the rum gets a little stronger. Little bit of berry taste after most of the glass is drank.
Good mouthfeel, tiny bubbles make it seem creamy like regular Guinness.
Nice and drinkable, if I had a regular source I could see myself drinking this often. Sampled through the efforts of northyorksammy.

330ml bottle purchased in Bruxelles.
A nice ebony coloured body with some more brown, even auburn, highlights on the bottom. Still opaque, however, with but a trim of ivory white head.
An intense aroma filled with cocoa and chocolate. Notes of anise become very obvious and the aroma strongly starts to resemble sambuca. There is also a light note of espresso that fits the bill well.
The mouthfeel is surprisingly a little sour, the yeast seems to carry with it a bit of 'funk'. The finish is especially sour. Low carbonation. The "special" is easy to find but the "stout" seems to have been lost along the way. A sweet, anise filled aftertaste. Far nicer to drink than the standard Guinness!
The flavour is pleasant - albeit a little light. The taste entertains the palate with notes of chocolate mousse, anise, and an interesting yeast. There is a strong element of roast barley that is distinct from the regular Guinness. Maybe even some hops? Essentially this is dark chocolate, dark malts, coca beans, and anise. Tasty no doubt.
A very neat beer indeed, quite a trip from the standard Guinness. This is no doubt a lovely Belgian style stout - nothing but pleasantry - but I was far from impressed enough to consider this "world class". My impression was that it wasn't quite deserving of the reputation it's earned. That said, I'd be more than happy to have another!

Not being quite as big a Guinness fan as many others out there, I was happy to get my hands on this one (thanks to msubulldog25!). I'd heard this was a great one, and it is. I just wonder why the hell it's all but impossible to acquire west of the Atlantic?!
Pours out looking like a regular Guinness stout, with a creamy head and an opaque ruby-hued black.
Aroma is fruity, milky sweet, some chocolate, some cocoa, and something that reminds of a Scottish Ale (musty? peaty?).
A plethora of flavors arrive within the first few sips: smoke, burnt grains, figs, other dark fruits, dark chocolate, pumpernickel, coffee. The mouthfeel is frothy, foamy, tight and bubbly.
A joy to enjoy. It gives you lots to contemplate and grapple with in the flavor, where it counts most. The most impressive and enjoyable that I've had from the Guinness family. Bring it over here!

Poured in a half pint Guinness glass. Black colour and the usual big brownish Guinness head that last until the last sip. Complex aroma of coffee, licorice, cream, butter, prunes, raisins, rum, rosted notes, spicy, nutmeg... the lot. Taste is coffee, licorice, rum, figs, rosted, nutmeg, raisins... the lot again. Alcoholic coffee flavor. Great.

s - dark roasted malts with some dark chocolate, lots of caramel sweetness with some dark fruits
t - dark malts dominate, but there are notes of dark fruits and caramel, surprisingly sweet in the body with mild bitterness in the finish, not much alcohol detectable
m - medium-bodied, moderate carbonation
d - pretty drinkable, fairly easy on the palate and the alcohol is not overwhelming
This is many steps up from the Guinness everyone is used to; nothing transcendental, but very good nontheless; very solid stout that I would love drink regularly

Appearance: almost black and nearly opaque due to its dark colour. The head is brown, large, rich, full and creamy. Excellent retention followed by beautiful lacing.
Aroma: very nice roasted malt aroma. Chocolate and coffee notes.
Taste: well balanced between the roasted malts and the bitter hops. A noble port presence.
Mouthfeel: unctuous and velvety, perfect carbonation and a full body. The beer is so balanced that you do not feel the 8% ABV.
Finish: lingering bitter aftertaste.
Overall: Great beer with a wonderful mix of flavours. One of my favourites in the world. Better than the average Guinness. Could not wait to get my hands in another one.

It looks just like a Guinness, but it's a wolf in sheep's clothing. It has the same jet black body with the almost cliched thick off-white head. That is where the similarities end. The aroma is much more Belgian than Irish. There is some funk upfront along with sweetness and caramel in the aroma. The aroma is good, but the flavor is awesome. The first thing that passed through my mind when I tasted it was DAMN!! This isn't the Guinness I'm used to. It's a different ballgame; a different sport all together. It is very sweet and malty with tasty caramel, chocolate, and yeasty flavors. It makes me think more of a quad than an export stout. It ends with a bitter finish. An amazing beer all together.

Town Square
How did this ugly housing development get approved?
Original post made by Jonathan on Oct 2, 2007
I believe a row of trees and some lawn between El Camino and the homes would have been much more attractive. Compare the development at the end of Meadow where trees, lawn and a fence separate the development from a much quieter street.
I wonder who will buy homes set right on noisy El Camino?
Is the developer prioritizing greed over aesthetics?
Why did the City of Palo Alto approve homes right on El Camino?
on Oct 2, 2007 at 7:39 pm
Its a gross injustice to the City of Palo Alto. Shame on the city government that approved such an eyesore. What a travesty to take down something quaint that signified the old time character of Palo Alto (Ricky's complex) and replace it with something so miserable.
(And could they paint it any uglier obtrusive colors?)
on Oct 2, 2007 at 7:55 pm
The travesty is that the city allowed some NIMBYs to drag the Hyatt hotel proposal around for 10 years or so, so they finally threw in the towel and it became all housing. At least if it was a hotel/housing mix we would get all kinds of juicy hotel taxes (taxing out of towners and not having to provide any services - how ideal).
How much worse could it have been as a housing/hotel mix?
on Oct 2, 2007 at 7:59 pm
The development is disgusting. Trees should line the project. It looks like El Camino and Jefferson in Redwood City... sunny and bleached.
Money talks, folks.

Liberal Blogger Details Bradley Manning's Inhumane Treatment – His Blankets Hurt
A man is arrested and detained for months without any charges being brought against him. He is being held in deplorable conditions, forced to endure extreme physical and mental distress. He is exposed to the same 'torture' tactics that other enemies of the United States have allegedly suffered through.
So why isn't the Commander-in-Chief taking heat for this travesty of justice?
Because this isn't the Bush administration.
Firedoglake blogger, David House, has been detailing a recent visit with Bradley Manning, accused of leaking classified documents to Wikileaks, at a military prison at the Quantico Marine base in Virginia (h/t Weasel Zippers). Of course, House bemoaned the 'inhumane' treatment of Manning, describing the toll that months of solitary confinement have taken on his physical and mental well-being.
AFP ran with the story and made it clear that they had no intention of offering a balanced report. In fact, viewing the headline, one would never know that the story came from an extremely liberal website, reading more as fact than a slanted accusation.
This must be more of the 'inhumane' treatment that Salon's Glenn Greenwald reported on when he spoke of 'a major story' regarding Manning's 'cruel' treatment. Except that, as NewsBuster Ken Shepherd pointed out, the Salon piece bemoans the lack of a soft pillow, whereas, the Firedoglake post is concerned with the torturous nature of a really uncomfortable blanket. House states (emphasis mine):
Manning related to me on December 19 2010 that his blankets are similar in weight and heft to lead aprons used in X-ray laboratories, and similar in texture to coarse and stiff carpet. He stated explicitly that the blankets are not soft in the least and expressed concern that he had to lie very still at night to avoid receiving carpet burns.
No soft pillows or blankets for a man accused of violating federal criminal and military law, and putting the lives of our brave men and women in harm's way? The horror. Yet, this is quite similar to the Susan Crawford flap from a couple of years ago, in which Gitmo detainees were alleged to have endured certain minor inconveniences by most standards.
To the credit of the left wing blogs such as Firedoglake, AlterNet, and the Huffington Post, and organizations like a Code Pink, or the highly biased AFP, they are simply remaining true to their bleeding-heart roots - less coersion, more coddling for those accused of serious crimes against the United States. But if these tactics are considered torture when they involve terrorists, then it is clearly overkill when it comes to an American citizen such as Manning.
But where is the main stream media on this? Where is their outrage?
For years, they were more than willing to cover the perceived torture of individuals during the Bush administration. For instance, this ABC News report about the possibility of the Obama administration prosecuting Bush era officials for interrogation techniques ironically states:
President Obama suggested today that it remained a possibility that the Justice Department might bring charges against officials of the Bush administration who devised harsh interrogation policies that some see as torture.
Here in the Manning case, some clearly see sleep deprivation and a lack of a pillow pet and a special blankie as torture. So when can we expect the Justice Department to investigate the Obama administration?

The man is in the USA military and they don't have to disclose any details. They can and do throw people into the brig when they are suspect and they have sufficient evidence of wrong doing. I imagine all the p's and q's and proper procedure have been followed.
Remember the military will deal with this man, not any civilian court; at least the first one will be military.

This little corrupt and sissy b*****d violated his oath to protect and defend the Constitution of the United States against ALL enemies, foreign and domestic! He's darn lucky that we have a sissy President with girly men in his cabinet! According to the UCMJ, he has aided and abetted the enemy and could be shot by order of the unit commander. As far as this sissy's blanket, perhaps he would like a nice "blanket party" given to him by the guys whose lives he has endangered. Give the little f****t a berlap bag infested with lice and fleas if he's so uncomfortable! I'm glad my military days ended years ago. These kind of traitors should be target practice for the firing squad!

Tiose doing the whining have never served. As I have told my daughter over and over the UCMJ is a different animal from civilian law. He probably has it better than many of those in the hills Afganistan. I bet they'd love to have a rough blanket and a bed to lie down on instead of a pancho and some rock.
I have no sympathy for this little bastard. If I was there I'd lead the blanket party.

It's all the military's fault for not realizing that some soldiers just aren't used to those rough old blankies that they issue., and can you believe that they don't actually issue pillow pets for you to snuggle with in the fur lined and heated foxy woxy holes? (AhhHH! Such a disgusting name! I'd prefer that they call them "a$$ holes." It would seem sooooo much more welcoming, don't you think?)

As if the NAME of someone being released (which WikiLeaks could have done easily) is a real national security threat like this little d-bag did. The sick, wretched, petulent left in this nation is the real threat to national security, from signing that feel-good START treaty with Russia on down the line.

He is very lucky that he IS in solitary. If he was in general he would have already been sent to the morgue. Even in Military prisons/brigs, there is a cast system. Traitors are even lower than molesters and rapists. Violating his civil rights.....whatever. The left is playing this up.

Too bad, perhaps he should be out at the COP named RESTREPO, or the one called BADEL, among many others. I'm sure the troops would be more than happy to have him there, he'd be a good bullet magnet. He could be the "Sacrificial Goat", staked out about 100 yards from the COP.

At the prison where I work if an inmate is palced on sucide watch he is given a smock to put on. No underwear, no blanket, no sheets. The officers have to sign a paper that is attached to his cell door that they check on him every 15 minutes, 24/7. I don't see why they don't let them go ahead and kill themselves. If they are that determined to do it it sure would save the taxpayers some money.

OpenStreetMap is a free, editable map of the whole world. Unlike proprietary datasets like Google Map Maker, the OpenStreetMap license allows free access to the full map dataset. This massive amount of data can be downloaded in full, but also is available in immediately-useful forms like maps and commercial services.
Over one million contributors make OpenStreetMap possible. The main way that users participate is by editing the map. With a free user account, you can make improvements to the map that fix issues and add data for everyone. Some users take GPS units on walks, drives, or cycling trips to record tracks that can then be imported to OpenStreetMap. Others help out by tracing roads and features they find in satellite imagery into the map.
OpenStreetMap's funding and infrastructure is supported by the non-profit OpenStreetMap Foundation. While it doesn't maintain ownership of the dataset or control of the project, the foundation encourages the growth, development and distribution of free geospatial data for anybody to use and share.
You can start editing the map straight away, right from the OpenStreetMap home page.
OpenStreetMap is not only open data, but it's built on open source software. The web interface software development, mapping engine, API, editors, and many other components of the slippy map are made possible by the work of volunteers. Work is taking this project in many different directions.
Interested in getting involved? Track down a specific component you'd like to help out on, and get in touch with the maintainers through the #osm-dev IRC channel.
Applications of OpenStreetMap
Main article: Applications of OpenStreetMap There are many Applications of OpenStreetMap. Beside maps, it's used for routing, within professional GIS software, in education and research.

By DREW GARDNER6 News Reporter
KNOXVILLE (WATE) - The snow and ice put hundreds of homebound seniors in jeopardy of not getting their daily hot meals.
Many of Mobile Meals' regular drivers were unable to make deliveries because of the extreme winter weather. Delivering meals to more than 700 seniors is challenging under normal circumstances. Add in inches of snow and ice and its nearly impossible.
The Knoxville Community Action Committee who sponsors the Mobile Meals program put out a call to the community asking anyone with four-wheel drive vehicles to come help deliver the hot meals."Our regular volunteers that we rely on every day, some of them are elderly themselves and they are really not able to get out and we don't encourage them to get out in this kind of weather," said Executive Director Barbara Kelly. But Kelly says it's more than just a hot meal. It's a daily safety check many of the seniors otherwise wouldn't get."The safety check is important on every day, but it's particularly important if we may find someone whose power is off or they've run out of fuel or something like that," said Kelly.Former volunteer Eddie Clark heard the call for volunteers and decided to head down. He says he was off of work already due to weather and was happy to come pitch in."It makes me feel really good inside that I can help others," said Clark. "I'm capable of doing it so I'll just get out and help all I can. If they need other things, I can run to the store for them or whatever they want."It's that kind of support that Kelly says is so important in times like these."It's a lifesaver for some people and it's really important that the community supports these efforts," added Kelly.Clark wasn't the only one to answer the call. Dozens of others showed up and Mobile Meals managed to get all of the meals out to those who needed themIf you would like to volunteer for Mobile Meals or would like to find out more information how you can help out when the snow falls just call their office at 865-524-2786.

GRINDELWALD, Switzerland (AP) -- The International Ski Federation says Canadian racer Nick Zoricic has died after crashing in a World Cup skicross race.
FIS says Zoricic died as a result of "severe neurotrauma."
The 29-year-old Zoricic crashed directly into safety nets lining the side of the course after going wide over the final jump.
Television showed Zoricic tumbling through the nets as his skis and poles were thrown clear.
Zoricic was treated on the course before being taken by helicopter to a hospital for further treatment.
Organizers canceled Saturday's World Cup event.

À La Carte Excursions | General Information
Add To Plan
Casually bicycle through Florida's most carefree, laidback city on a beach cruiser, visiting Key West's most colorful attractions and landmarks.
Walk the short distance from the pier to your beach cruiser and start biking through Key West. The city is entirely flat, so you can easily cruise along without much effort. You'll see all the key sites, stopping at many of them, and always pedaling at a leisurely pace. Along the way, your guide will impart all sorts of curious facts and stories about Key West's most infamous characters.
Visit the notorious Captain Tony's Saloon, where Jimmy Buffet played early in his career. See Ernest Hemingway's house, where the Pulitzer Prize-winning author penned "For Whom the Bell Tolls." Have your picture taken at Mile Marker 0, the southernmost point in the continental United States. Cruise by the quirky Key West Cemetery and hear about the famous sculptures and unusual epitaphs.
Key West has no shortage of irreverent attractions, but there are also plenty of more traditional ones that are fascinating in their own right. You'll pass the Presidential Gates, leading to Harry Truman's Little White House, and Mel Fisher's Maritime Heritage Museum, which is filled with booty from a shipwrecked Spanish galleon. For the ultimate taste of Key West, the tour ends at Kermit's Key Lime Pie Shoppe where you'll get a treat of frozen key lime pie dipped in chocolate.
After a fun-filled time exploring Key West in a non-traditional manner, you will return your bike and then have the choice of either enjoying some free time in the city or walking back to the ship.
Please note: This tour includes limited walking, but approximately 2.5 hours of moderate to easy biking over flat terrain. Stops are made approximately every 5-10 minutes. Participants should be in reasonably good physical condition and know how to ride a bike. The tour is not available to wheelchair guests or those with mobility concerns. Light-weight, comfortable clothing (avoid wide-legged pants or skirts); sun cap; sunglasses; sunscreen and flat, comfortable shoes are suggested.

Surrounded by verdant mountains and high plateaus, Saguenay with its breathtaking scenery, is Canada's only navigable fjord, and its rich eco-system draws pods of visiting whales, seals and seabirds. Nestled among the flowering hills discover some of the most picturesque villages in Québec. Saquenay is the travelers portal to a host of activities including: kayaking, power boating, whale watching and hiking amid simply gorgeous surroundings.
The following Shore Excursions are available for this port on this cruise, and may be reserved beginning 240 days before the cruise begins for guests receiving Concierge amenities, and 180 days before the cruise begins for all other guests. Guests receiving Concierge amenities will receive a 5% discount off of the prices shown below for Regent Choice tours.
Discover the unique qualities of the land and people around Saguenay by visiting several unusual museums devoted to the Saguenay Fjord, soap making and paper pulping.
Departing from the pier, you will immediately be struck by the natural beauty surrounding Saguenay, which sprawls along the Saguenay River, a tributary of the mighty St. Lawrence. Its fjord, deeply chiseled in the Laurentian Mountains, is one of the world's largest and was discovered by French explorer Jacques Cartier in the mid 1530s. Marine life thrives here, including Beluga whales, Minke whales and Greenland sharks.
Arriving at the Fjord Museum, you will discover how the waterway was formed, its importance to the province, and why the museum's strange Ha! Ha! Pyramid monument was created out of more than 3,000 traffic yield signs. Later, you'll walk across the street to the Olivier Soapery, a one-of-a-kind museum devoted to the art and evolution of soap making.
Then, it's on to the Chicoutimi Pulp Mill, a beautiful natural stone mill that has become a museum. Inside, you'll find the Arthur Villeneuve House, which the former owner, a local barber, painted with primitive scenes and figures. Interestingly, including the house in the museum caused a controversy among those who thought it was an eyesore, not art. Finally, you'll visit Le Chevrier du Nord, a farm that raises angora goats for mohair clothing. It's quite the enterprise and a memorable end to your tour before driving back to the pier.
Please note: This tour includes approximately 2-hours of moderate walking/standing. There will be various gradients and surfaces to negotiate, including dirt/gravel paths at Mount Battie. The tour is available to wheelchair guests who have a collapsible wheelchair, are able to make their own way on and off the coach and have an able-bodied companion to assist them.

A non-invasive procedure is helping patients get rid of stubborn fat without surgery. Coolsculpting is a way to remove those bulges by allowing the body to break down fat cells after freezing them.
It was originally used mainly in the abdominal area, but advancements are now allowing doctors to treat the inner thighs and even the arms.
Dr. Jon Ward from Gulf Coast Dermatology and Aqua Medical Spa says Coolsculpting is painless. An applicator is placed on the area being treated for an hour while it freezes the area being sculpted. A new applicator, called the Coolfit, is used for patients wanting to shape the inner thighs or arms.
Cynthia Fuller had her lower stomach treated with Coolsculpting.
"I tried to diet and workout, but I still had what I refer to lovingly as the mommy tummy," said Fuller.
Dr. Ward explains that "one treatment gives a 20 to 25% fat layer reduction." He goes on to say, "This is not a weight loss technique. It is not meant to replace diet and exercise but to sculpt a portion of the body."
Fuller says it worked for her.
"I just wanted to fit in my old pair of jeans from before I was pregnant. I actually have a new pair of jeans now. I'm smaller than before I got pregnant," she said with a smile.
Dr. Ward says Coolsculpting destroys the fat cells, while leaving the skin cells untouched. The cost depends on the size of the area treated, but Dr. Ward says the average treatment cost is $1,200.

Go-ahead for new school in Barnoldswick
11:25am Friday 25th January 2013 in News
PLANS to build a new Barnoldswick Primary School next to West Craven High have been approved.
Barnoldswick councillors had campaigned against the plans due to concerns over an increase in traffic on Kelbrook Road, and the loss of playing fields.
The £11million scheme, which will also see the redevelopment of West Craven High School, was approved by councillors on Lancashire County Council's development control committee.
Stuart Perigo, the county council's planning chief, acknowledged the loss of open space but said it was the only suitable site for a new primary school in Barnoldswick.

ATLANTA (AP) - The Georgia Aquarium says it has filed a complaint in federal court seeking to overturn the denial of its application to import beluga whales from Russia.
The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration Fisheries denied the aquarium's application in August. The aquarium says it filed the complaint Monday in Atlanta.
A spokeswoman for NOAA Fisheries did not immediately respond to an email and phone call seeking comment Monday afternoon.
The aquarium applied in June 2012 to import 18 whales as part of an initiative aimed at improving the genetic diversity of belugas living in American captivity. Georgia Aquarium zoologists say that will help ensure the sustainability of this population for decades.
The Georgia Aquarium draws 2.2 million guests per year.

What about those nativity plays that children often perform at Christmastime? They are an obvious outgrowth of the miracle plays of the Middle Ages, but the reason children (rather than adults) perform in them isn't clear. However, it's possible the tradition stems from the Victorian Era, when Christmas was recast in America and England as a child-friendly, family-centered holiday, instead of the rowdy celebration it had been in years past.
Explainer thanks Bruce Forbes of Morningside College, the author of "Christmas: A Candid History."
