Mr. Speaker: Much has been said and written about the significance of this resolution. I believe that many have become unduly suspicious of this plain and simple statement of basic principle. It means just what it says, no more and no less. I have no illusions that this resolution is the panacea for all our afflictions. It expresses what I believe the people of this country desire as the fundamental principle for our conduct toward the other nations of the world. It is simply the first small step in the process of building a foreign policy which I hope may have better results than that which we have followed in the past, We now have, throughout the world, ample evidence of the inevitable consequences of that policy. Surely it is worthwhile to try a new approach to the problem of total war, even though no one can guarantee the success of our efforts. After this first step is taken, it is obvious that many more steps must be taken before an adequate policy can be achieved. As the editor of the Washington STAR said in yesterday's papers "What we need now is a simple expression of our determination that, having won a global war, we shall live up to our responsibilities of maintaining global peace." The Fulbright resolution will not settle the future of the world. But if the House gives it united support tomorrow the representatives of the people will have outlined the pattern of the policy we are to pursue in international collaboration after the War. What most Americans want to see is some agreement among their representatives on where we are going after this war is won. Non-partisan endorsement of the Fulbright resolution by a solid House will tell them, and tell them what they want to know."

Wine Profile
Vineyard Notes
The 2010 year began with above average rainfall, ending a three year drought in the Paso Robles region. July was one of the coolest on record leading to a late harvest and an exceptionally long growing season. Yields in Paso Robles were average and the grapes had lower sugar levels and perfectly developed flavors with lower alcohols in the finished wines.

The City of Taguig[4] (Tagalog pronunciation: [taˈɡiɡ]), (Filipino: Lungsod ng Taguig), is a highly urbanized city located in south-eastern portion of Metro Manila in the Philippines. From a thriving fishing community along the shores of Laguna de Bay, it is now an important residential, commercial and industrial center. The recent construction of the C-5 highway and the acquisition of the Fort Bonifacio development area has paved the way for the cityhood of the municipality. It will also be accessed by the future C-6 Road.
Taguig City lies on the western shore of Laguna de Bay and is bordered by Muntinlupa City to the south, Parañaque to the southwest, Pasay to the west, Cainta and Taytay on the northeast and Makati, Pateros, and Pasig to the north. Taguig River, a tributary of the Pasig River cuts through the northern half of the municipality and Napindan River, also a tributary of the Pasig forms the common border of Taguig with Pasig City.
The city ranked first among Philippine cities in the Ease of Doing Business Index, conducted by the World Bank's International Finance Corporation.[5]
The original 800 farmer-fishermen settlers of the area were good at threshing rice after harvest. Hence they were referred to as "mga taga-giik," and their settlement as "pook ng mga taga-giik." Spanish friar Fray Alonso de Alvarado, together with conquistador Rey Lopez de Villalobos who crossed Pasig River to reach Taguig in 1571 found "taga-giik" difficult to pronounce, and could only produce the word sounding like "tagui-ig." So many mispronouncements later, "tagui-ig" was shortened to the present day "Taguig."[citation needed]
|This section does not cite any references or sources. (May 2012)
Before the Spaniards came, Taguig was a part of the Kingdom of Tondo ruled by Rajah Soliman. There were also accounts that Chinese settlements were once present in the area as revealed by the recent archeological diggings of various artifacts like cups, plates and other utensils, which bear Chinese characters. This was believed to have originated from China's Ming dynasty.
Taguig was one of the earliest known territories to have been Christianized when the Spaniards succeeded in subjugating mainland Luzon through the Legazpi expedition in 1571. Between the years 1582 and 1583, Taguig was part of the encomienda of Tondo headed by an Alcalde Mayor, Captain Vergara. It was in 1587 when Taguig was established as a separate "pueblo" (town) of the then province of Manila. Captain Juan Basi was its Kapitan from 1587 to 1588. According to records, Taguig had nine (9) barrios then namely, Bagumbayan, Bambang, Hagonoy, Palingon, Sta. Ana, Tipas, Tuktukan, Ususan, and Wawa. Records show that Tipas had once petitioned to become an independent town but was denied by the Spanish government.
During that time, Taguig was accessible via the Pasig River, which was connected to two large bodies of water, the Manila Bay and Laguna de Bay. The population then was estimated to be 800 tributes. The town produced more than enough rice for their consumption but had less sugar cane to mill. The men lived through fishing while women wove cotton cloth and "sawali" from bamboo strips.
The people of Taguig were known to have resisted both Spanish and American colonial rule. During that early period of Spanish colonition. Don Juan Basi, "Kapitan" of Taguig from 1587 to 1588, took part in the Tondo Conspiracy, an attempt to overthrow the Spanish government which failed. Basi was exiled for two years as punishment. When the Katipunan was on its early years, many from Taguig became followers and later joined the uprising. The people of Taguig also joined the revolutionary government of General Emilio Aguinaldo on August 6, 1898.
During the American occupation, they struggled against the forces of General Wheaton under the command of General Pio del Pilar. It was recorded that on February 6, 1898, Filipino forces including Taguig "revolutionarios" dislodged an American position in the hills of Taguig, now a portion of Pateros and Fort Bonifacio. They were defeated eventually by the Americans with superiority in the armaments and training. Taguig finally fell to the contingent of the First Washington Volunteer Infantry led by Col. Wholly.
The defeat of the Filipinos after two years of struggle against the American forces subsequently subjected the Philippines to another system of governance. On August 14, 1898, United States occupied the islands and established a military government with General Wesley Meritt as the First Military Governor. He exercised legislative powers until September 1, 1900.
At the start of American occupation, Taguig was proclaimed as an independent municipality with the promulgation of General Order No. 4 on March 29, 1900. The town was subsequently incorporated to the newly created province of Rizal when the Philippine Commission promulgated Act. No. 137 on June 11, 1901. On October 12, 1903, Taguig, Muntinlupa and Pateros were merged by the virtue of Act. No. 942 with Pateros hosting the seat of the municipal government. The merger did not last long as a month later Muntinlupa was segregated from it and made part of Biñan when Act. No. 1008 was enacted on November 25, 1903. However it was returned to Taguig on March 22, 1905 with the promulgation Act. No. 1308. On February 29, 1908, Taguig was again declared an independent municipality through Executive Order No. 20. Eventually, Pateros separated from Taguig and both became independent municipalities of Rizal province on January 1, 1918.
It was also during the American Colonial Period that the US government acquired a 25.78 km² property of Taguig for military purposes. This large piece of land which had a TCT dated 1902, was turned into a camp and was then known as Fort McKinley (named after the 25th president of U.S. President William McKinley). When the Japanese occupied the Philippines in 1942, Fort McKinley was taken over by the Japanese Imperial Army. They occupied the military camp until the end of the war in 1945.
After the Philippines gained its political independence from the United States on July 4, 1946, the US surrendered the Republic of the Philippines all right of possession, jurisdiction, supervision and control over the Philippine territory except the use of the military bases. On May 14, 1949, Fort William McKinley was turned over to the Philippine government by virtue of the US Embassy Note No. 0570.
Fort McKinley was made the permanent headquarters of the Philippine Army in 1957 and was subsequently renamed Fort Bonifacio after the Father of the Philippine Revolution against Spain, Andres Bonifacio.
The town's political subdivision was changed to barangays following the nationwide implementation of the Integrated Reorganization Plan (IRP) in the 1970s when the country was under Martial Law. The IRP has increased its subdivisions into 18 barangays, namely, Bagong Tanyag, Bagumbayan, Bambang, Calzada, Hagonoy, Ibayo-Tipas, Ligid-Tipas, Lower Bicutan, Maharlika, Napindan, Palingon, Signal Village, Sta. Ana, Tuktukan, Upper Bicutan, Ususan, Wawa, and Western Bicutan. In the year 2009, Taguig re-organized and re-arranged there barangays making a total of 28, the 10 added being Central Bicutan, Fort Bonifacio, South Daanghari, North Daanghari, San Miguel, New Lower Bicutan, South Signal,Katuparan, North Signal, Pinagsama and Tanyag. On November 7, 1975, Taguig was carved out from the province of Rizal to form the National Capital Region through Presidential Decree No. 824. Today, Taguig is still one of the seventeen (17) cities and municipalities that make up Metro Manila.
In 1998, a bill was passed in Congress pushing for the cityhood of Taguig. The resulting plebiscite in April showed that the citizens were against cityhood. A recent petition to the Supreme Court sought a recount of the plebiscite and the Supreme Court on February 19, 2004 ordered the Commission on Elections to conduct a recount. The recount showed that the residents did want the municipality of Taguig to become a city (21,105 'yes' and 19,460 'no'). Subsequently, Taguig became a city on December 8, 2004.
In 2008, the Taguig City council enacted City Ordinances Nos. 24-27, 57-61, 67-69, and 78, Series of 2008 which created ten (10) new barangays, carving them out from the initial 18 barangays. Hence, in December 2008, after a successful plebiscite, Taguig was politically subdivided into twenty eight (28) barangays.
Like other cities in the Philippines, Taguig City is governed by a Mayor and Vice Mayor who are elected to three-year terms. The Mayor is the executive head and leads the city's departments in executing the city ordinances and improving public services. The current mayor for the 2010–2013 term is Ma. Laarni L. Cayetano, the wife of former congressman and now senator Alan Peter S. Cayetano. She currently holds the youngest and 1st female mayor in the City of Taguig. The city mayor is restricted to three consecutive terms, totaling nine years, although a mayor can be elected again after an interruption of one term. Ricardo Cruz, former councilor and Barangay Chairman of Lower Bigutan is the city's incumbent vice-mayor. The Vice Mayor heads a legislative council consisting of 18 members: 8 Councilors from the First District, 8 Councilors from the Second District, the President of the Sangguniang Kabataan (Youth Council) Federation, representing the youth sector, and the President of the Association of Barangay Chairmen (ABC) as barangay sectoral representative. The council is in charge of creating the city's policies in the form of Ordinances and Resolutions. Current district representatives of the city are Arnel M. Cerafica, representing the 1st district and Lino Edgardo S. Cayetano, Movie/TV Director and son of late senator Rene Cayetano, representing the 2nd district.
Taguig City[7] was the home to several prestigious international schools such as the British School Manila, International School Manila, and Manila Japanese School, which are all located in the University Parkway of Bonifacio Global City. The Chinese International School Manila, Enderun Colleges, and Korean International School Philippines are in the nearby area of McKinley Hill.
Other schools in Fort Bonifacio are the Global City Innovative College, Leaders International Christian School (Christian-based curriculum), Everest Academy Manila (a Catholic-run international school), Victory Leadership Institute, and MGC-New Life Christian Academy.
Two of the top state universities are also in Taguig City—the Polytechnic University of the Philippines, and the Technological University of the Philippines. Both universities are located in Bicutan, Taguig City.
The Technical Education and Skills Development Authority (TESDA) was established through the enactment of "Technical Education and Skills Development Act of 1994", which was signed into law by President Fidel V. Ramos. This Act aims to encourage the full participation of and mobilize the industry, labor, local government units, and technical-vocational institutions in the skills development of the country's human resource. The TESDA complex and facilities are located at the East Service Road of the South Luzon Expressway in Taguig City.
The Philippine Public Safety College in Fort Bonifacio is an educational institution offering undergraduate and graduate programs for the training, human resource development, and continuing education of police, fire and jail personnel.
Taguig City has two Islamic educational institutions located in Maharlika Village—the Maharlika Bandara-Inged Integrated School and the Maharlika Village Islamic Madrasa.
Other notable schools in Taguig City are the city-run Taguig Science High School in Hagonoy, Taguig National High School, a state-owned secondary institution in New Lower Bicutan, the Catholic Church-owned Colegio de Sta. Ana (formerly Sta. Ana Parochial School), The Fisher Valley College, a Christian school in Hagonoy, and Saint Francis of Assisi College System, a Catholic school in Bagumbayan.
The Taguig City University started their operations in November 2006 with night classes at two of the city's larger secondary schools. Construction of a school building will follow soon at a lot beside Taguig City Hall of Justice in Lower Bicutan. It is now the largest public college in the area. In the auditorium of TCU (Taguig City University) there is the city's musical Kilos Kabataan.[8]

Makati City and Taguig have recently fought over the jurisdiction of Fort Bonifacio. This Philippine military base, most of which has been converted to a modern commercial and residential development area, lies in an ambiguous area. A portion of the base, including the Libingan ng mga Bayani (Heroes' Cemetery) and the Manila American Cemetery and Memorial lies within Taguig, while the northern portion where the development center is now located used to be considered part of Makati. A 2003 ruling by a judge in the Pasig Regional Trial Court has upheld the jurisdiction of Taguig over the whole of Fort Bonifacio, including the Fort Bonifacio Global City.
The Supreme Court on June 27, 2008 per Leonardo Quisumbing, dismissed the suit of the Makati City, seeking to nullify Special Patents 3595 and 3596 signed by Fidel Ramos conveying to the Bases Conversion and Development Authority public land in Fort Bonifacio, Taguig City. Because of a pending civil case filed by the Taguig City government asking the court to define its territorial boundaries, Makati therefore cannot stop Taguig from collecting taxes on land located in Fort Bonifacio.[9][10][11] Taguig City is competing with Makati City where round-the-clock construction of office and residential towers, as well as hotels and retail and commercial areas, BPO and Call Centers are now transferring to Taguig City.
On August 5, 2013, The Court of Appeals has declared the entire Fort Bonifacio, parts of Western Bicutan and parts of Pinagsama as a part of Makati City[12][13]

Personal or Business? Parameters for Choosing a Credit Card
We've all got our different reasons for making a particular product choice, and it's no different when it comes to shopping for a credit card. These days though, many people are probably just happy they're able to qualify for any credit card at all, given just how much stricter card companies are these days about signing up new customers.
So what is it that draws you to any one card? Some people are attracted to certain credit cards because of their design and appearance. But some are very practical and look at the bottom line: they check the interest rates, APR, card fees and other terms that come with the card. And in my particular case, I look at a couple of things: the rewards and the annual fees. Since I pay my credit card in full each month and don't carry a balance, I'm after maximizing cash back rewards and minimizing those annual fees and grace periods. The best cards for me are those with $0 annual fees with decent terms and sign up bonuses (free money, why not!) and for this reason, I am partial to Discover card rewards programs and American Express rewards cards.
Differences Between a Personal and Business Credit Card
Now the aforementioned parameters are some of the more obvious reasons for picking a card. But there's something else you may want to consider before you fill up that credit card application. If you own a business, and would like to enjoy the benefits of a business card, there are a few considerations you may want to be aware of. Some people may not be aware of the differences between business and personal credit cards, which I'd like to clear up. Here are a few tips to consider when making a decision between these different cards:
1. Your personal credit standing is still on the line with a business credit card.
What a lot of people don't realize is that if you're a small business owner, you can still be personally held liable for how you handle your business card. If the card company asks for your social security number to open a card account, then you know you're on the line for it, and you'll remain liable for how you manage this credit line. Thus, any late payments on a business card will affect your personal credit score. In fact, many people confuse a "small business credit card" with a "corporate credit card." With a corporate card, the main cardholder's personal credit won't be affected with its use; any defaults on such a card won't affect the business owner's personal credit. But note that corporate cards are only available to big business entities and that the criteria that defines such businesses varies by card company (e.g. A card company might declare that a big business enterprise must have at least 20 million in sales and at least 200 employees, for instance).
2. Compare the rewards of carrying a small business credit card with those from consumer cards.
There are certainly benefits to getting a business card; just not what you may automatically assume. As a small business owner you may want to have a separate card for your venture to make financial planning easier. Also, some vendors only take business cards exclusively. And finally, there may be much better rewards available to you that are pertinent to your business if you use such cards.
Here's a case in point: many rewards business cards pay you extra points or cash rebates for so-called "business related items" (like buying your stationery at Staples). If these are huge expenses for you, this is something to think about. Amex business cardholders receive benefits like getting 5% discounts from Hyatt hotels or Fedex. Discover small business cards offer 5% cash back on office supplies and 2% on gas. These are things to consider when you are doing your research.
3. Your card statements may be presented differently.
Unlike consumer credit cards, business credit cards tend to give cardholders a monthly breakdown of expenses in categories. For those who like this feature, this might be a reason to lean towards a "small business credit card." While many consumer card statements have this feature as well, they tend to give you an annual statement summary rather than a monthly one.
4. Watch out for additional fees for employees.
Beware of any extra fees that a card company charges for additional cards. Some cards won't charge you any fees. Some have no fee for the first few additional business cards. But certainly, do some proper research on this point. If you have just a couple of employees whom you want to give cards to, perhaps even a personal card will do.
5. Most travel rewards are the same.
By this, I mean that there's really no difference between the frequent flier miles perks for personal vs business cards. Whether you get a United Airlines personal or business card, you will still be earning the same United Mileage Plus Miles.
6. Some business cards report to Business Credit Bureaus.
If building a business credit score is important for you, ask if a credit card issuer reports to bureaus like Dun and Bradstreet. But bear in mind that whether or not they report to D & B, any default (or other problems) will also show up on your personal credit score and report.
7. Leverage 0% offers when it makes sense.
Many personal and business credit cards offer teaser 0% APR for purchases for some extended time (the introductory period). I wouldn't recommend that consumers go on a 0% financing spree on a plasma TV, but for a business, 0% financing for some start up costs may make sense and may provide some breathing room.
8. Find out whether vendors will accept American Express or Discover cards.
Visa and Mastercard are the most popular credit cards. But you may want to get an Amex or Discover card if you find it more appropriate for your business spending habits. But before you do that, check with your vendors to see if they accept these cards (some don't).
9. Ask the right questions before applying for a card.
Here are a few questions to ask in order to find out whether a business card is something you should get:
- What kind of expenses do you plan to put on your card?
- Does your business require travel?
- Will your business carry a balance on the card (do you need lines of credit)?
- How many employees should your card be distributed to?
- What kind of cards will your vendors accept (will they take Discover or Amex)?
- Can you get better trade terms from a vendor?
You should take into account these concerns even as you look at each card's general terms, such as interest rate, fees, grace period and rewards program. For those interested, here's a sampling of some of the best business credit cards out there today.
You also have to keep in mind that today, you're not going to be able to find a business credit card, with the economy the way it is going.
I think it depends on what you are using it for. If you have a really small business and just put your taxes under your normal tax return, a personal card is fine. But when you officially setup an LLC and have a separate EIN etc. this is when you want to build up credit for your small business as an entity in itself. This is when you should apply for a business credit card.

Ben Francisco's pinch-hit, three-run home run late in Game 3 gave the Philadelphia Phillies a 2-1 series lead and, just as importantly, helped them retake home field advantage. They now need to win one out of two, and will toss out two of the veteran-iest veteran pitchers in baseball, Roy Oswalt and Roy Halladay.
Oswalt will get the ball against Edwin Jackson, who surprisingly hasn't had quite the reinvention under Cardinals
mad scientist pitching coach Dave Duncan the Redbirds hoped. He finished the season with a 3.79 ERA, 3.58 in 12 starts in St. Louis, but struggled allowing batters to reach base. In fact, his WHIP increased under Duncan, from 1.42 to 1.46. With baserunners like Jimmy Rollins, Shane Victorino, and Chase Utley, that's not going to fly in the postseason.
Oswalt is a cagey vet, and he knows how to pitch in the postseason. He was one of the aces on the Astros team in 2005 that made the World Series, eventually losing to the White Sox, and has a history of good performances in October. It is the playoffs in St. Louis, though, so don't be surprised if this one goes to Game 5.
Game Date/Time: Wednesday, Oct. 5, 6 p.m.
Stadium: Busch Stadium, St. Louis, MO
Projected Starters
Philadelphia Phillies: Roy Oswalt (9-10, 3.69 ERA)
St. Louis Cardinals: Edwin Jackson (12-9, 3.79 ERA)

Add To Plan
Traveling by coach from the pier, you will journey into the beautiful and lush land that was praised by Homer and considered the ideal setting for his "Tempest" by Shakespeare. Richly endowed by nature as no other Greek island, Corfu continues to remain a part of Greece that stands apart.
Making your way through fertile areas of orange and lemon groves, you will come to reach Achilleion Palace. Built 100 years ago as a summer palace for its former owners, the Empress Elisabeth of Austria and Kaiser Wilhelm II, the palace is surrounded by manicured lawns and classic Greek statues. Not surprisingly, the residence and grounds contain numerous paintings and statues of its namesake, Achilles. The Imperial gardens located on top of the hill offer majestic views of densely wooded countryside and the Ionian Sea can be viewed in the distance as well.
After spending approximately one hour at the Palace, your tour will proceed on to one of the island's beautiful private villas. Perched on a small rise, the Villa offers lovely views of a tranquil bay. Upon your arrival, you will be treated to a traditional Greek buffet luncheon, served with refreshments.
Relax and soak in the ambience at the water's edge or sit poolside where a local trio will entertain you with popular music of the island and dancers will perform the Syrtaki dance. In true Corfiot style, you will be made to feel right at home by the warmth of your host.
Please note: This tour includes over 2 hours of walking and/or standing, at times on uneven ground and marble surfaces.It also includes approximately 30 steps. It is not considered suitable for wheelchair guests or guests with mobility concerns. Hats and flat, comfortable walking shoes are recommended. This tour does not go to Corfu Town.

I am a newbie to this forum. I would like to have your suggestions for my next lens to use for my Canon 6D. I already have a 24-105L IS, 50mm 1.4, and a 100mm 2.8 Macro lens. I am looking for a wide angle lens for my 1 week next trip to Utah ( Bryce/Zion National Park and of course to the Grand Cayon ). My budget is ~ $1000. I can sell my current lens to get more $$$ for the big wide lens. Please let me know.
Thank you
If you're searching for a lens just for this trip, I'd definitely go for a rent, as someone else already suggested.
Canon 14/2,8 or 16-35/2,8. I like the first one much more, but obviously a zoom is more handy.

3.78/5 rDev -2.6%
Poured from a growler that a buddy brought back from the Charleston Beer Exchange. Rare beer in Charleston? At last!
A. Fizzy cloudy gold, smallish white head, lively carbonation. Looks like a paler version of Allagash's own tripel.
S. Interesting... Tripel-lite with more wheat. Spicy, wheaty, clove-y, crisp-y, lots of other y's... a flash of hop bitterness and reserved Belgian yeast hits my nose. Not as big or bold as a Tripel or Belgian Golden, but still tasty.
T. Very very drinkable beer here... crisp and dry with green apple, spice, clear Belgian yeast esters and more than a little grain flavor. Again reminiscent of the Tripel but toned down with much less yeast character. Coolly sweet and the hops shine through to add some noticeable bitterness. Nothing amazing, but just a solid brew.
M. Clean, sharp, thin, well carbonated. Very nice.
D. Pretty darn good... I don't know if this is worth seeking out due to the rarity of it, but if I had a keg I'm pretty sure I could kill it in short order. The ABV is not very evident and the whole brew is well done. Recommended if you can get it.

Served in a goblet, the beer was a hazy golden color with a thick white head that rretained pretty well and left some decent lacing. It had a spicy citrus aroma, maybe a little floral. Lemon/orange flavor, cloves, and a bit of pine. This was a crisp, tangy beer. Very easy to drink.

Tried this one at the Blind Tiger in NYC, as part of their Allagash event this past week. Poured hazed golden amber, under a near white head and leaving nice stringy lacing. I got some honey and flowers in the nose. On the tongue, more honey, ginger, light gin and spiced up melon. Fruity with a citric bite. Starkly dry late with resiny and dusty hops falling in. Wow. Strikingly flavorful and zesty. Love the style in general and this one hit the note. Well worth seeking out if its available anywhere near your location.

Allagash- Fedelta
A-Bright yellow orange with a good foamy white head. Moderate ring lacing.
S- Sweet lemon orange citrus tanginess, light touch of toasted malts and spice.
T- Light sweet/ tangy orange/ lemon citrus with powdery aspirin and a slight clove and wheat spiciness.
M- Aspiriny dry chalk body with tangy fruit hops and a spicy alc. finish.
Overall- Decent, nothing spectacular. A good nightcapper but I probably won't try again.

Served on-tap at Max's during 72 Hours of Belgium.
A: The ale is a hazy golden color, dulled by the sediment but still rather brilliant.
S: The nose is spicy and peppery. Clove and wheat tartness are tempered by a very dry yeast strain.
T: The ale has a firm malt base, bready with a punch of wheat tartness. Pepper, orange peel and cloves, along with a faint strain of bretty funk, create a taste that is very dry, pleasing but dry. Hops add a faint bitterness that is very crisp. Green apples add to the tart dryness.
M: The mouthfeel is aggressive, very forward with its array of tastes. Not Allagash's best offering but a unique one nonetheless.
D: A decent ale. Nothing jumped out as spectacular but overall all the flavors came together nicely.

On tap at Barleys last night, I was thrilled to see this handle on the wall. I had wanted to try this and thought I had missed my chance. Served in a pint glass, this one was consumed on 06/11/2009.
The nice hazy golden yellow pour was about what I would have expected. Rich white head reaches up to a about an inch before it barely settles down. Nice full look to it. Really nice aroma here. Lots of grain up front then a shot of cloves, light peaches and pears and a quick hit of citrus. Totally unexpected and really very, very well done. Rich notes of grain and almost a chewy, earthy quality to the taste. Very bright here with lemon zest and orange peel highlights to it. Very nicely carbonated as well now as it was a smooth, easy sipping belgian pale that hid its alcohol very, very well.
Overall not what I expected, but very well done and something I would be thrilled to try again. Glad this one crossed my path.

3.75/5 rDev -3.4%
Finally got a chance to try it, I seem to have always missed my chance when it was at the GLB and Novare. As luck would have it, the Lion's Pride had it on their opening tap list.
Pours a hazy golden yellow color, large amount of head with a good deal of patchy lacing along the glass.
Smell is rather odd, a mix of banana and clove along with an assertive hop presence and a citrus wheat aroma as well.
Taste is unsure what it wants to be with the flavors all colliding, on one end is the Belgian presence with banana and clove, on the other a hopped up Blonde ale, neither really win in the end so I have to call it a "disappointing" draw.
Glad I finally had this Allagash offering, but it's certainly not one of their better beers, good beer, just not up to my standards from them.

On tap at Capone's...
Appears a semi transparent hazy light gold with a small white cap that fades into a mild collar. Tons of scattered lacing is left around the glass.
Smell is of honey, woody flavors, earty, grass notes.
Taste is of the aromas with more yeast, and bitter wood notes coming through.
Mouthfeel is medium bodied, spicy, floral, herbal, with a semi dry finish.

Another find on the Sunset Grill tap list that I probably passed over about 8 times in the same visit before noticing. I appreciate that their list is so packed in with nothing standing out so friggin' dorks like me have to scour it over and over before finding some obscure treasure such as this, and I do mean that in the nicest way. Otherwise the keg would be kicked in about 2 days and I'd never stand a chance of enjoying this stuff. Into a tulip it goes...
Tight, single-finger head with solid staying power. Colored like natural honey with moderate carbonation.
Mix of subtle Belgian yeast, bolied grains and wonderful electricity. Honey sweetness combines with pine of oily hops. Almost a Germanic/Saaz-ish feel with a little warmth. Spice notes from yeast strain and their esters are pretty mellow here.
Solid hoppiness stands out - a fair amount of oil with electricity and the spice profile (coriander, orange zest, etc.) is actually a little lighter than expected at first but brings good closing speed. Definitely more "IPA" than "Belgian" so far, but decent mesh of both pedigree.
Definitely light-bodied on palate but spiciness starts to bite with good hop acidity in tow. Finishes a bit on the tight side.
It's a solid, ultra-hop forward Belgian IPA that's well-crafted as we've come to expect from the 'gash. Not a crazy, over-abundant effort to cross the edges of earth for but definitely...smoke 'em if you got 'em.

So, finally got to tour the new brewery (1.5 years after it opened) and noticed they had kegs of fedelta in the cold room waiting on delivery. Checked with the tour guide and confirmed they sent a keg to the great lost bear. You can probably guess it, next stop was the great lost bear! grabbed a stool at the bar and ordered a glass.
A - hazy yellowish tan color with a nice billowy white head.
S - allagash's house yeast, honey, candi sugar and a hint of citric hops
T - subtle spice and citric hops blend into a nicely balanced honey, candi sugar and mellow belgian yeasts.
M - medium full bodied, nicely carbonated, smooth but served way too cold at the bar.
D - served in a goblet and incredibly approachable.
Although I would've preferred to have a bottle or two and serve it around 55 degrees, this taste was worth the stop and will have to suffice for now.

Enjoyed during my most recent visit to Ebenezer's in Lovell, ME.
Pours a slightly hazy but bright gold with a creamy one-finger off-white head that fades slowly to a sticky ring. Decent lacing.
Smell is mostly clove, yeast and orange peel.
Taste is much like the nose, with clove and yeast hitting the palate up front, before some mellow citrus flavors and a hint of grape and apple. Finishes dry with a slight hop bitterness.
Light to medium-bodied mouthfeel. Extremely crisp and refreshing.
A very drinkable, extremely enjoyable brew.

Got this one from the Charleston Beer Exchange as they're tapping hard to find beers each Tuesday this month.
A - Poured from a growler into a tulip glass. Pours clear and orange-blond with an extremely thin, fleeting white head.
S - Smell is sugary/honey sweet, grapey, little hop tinge in the aroma. I let it sit for a while and spices and the aforementioned hoppiness get bolder.
T - Citrus bite, sort of part grapefruit and part lemon, balanced with sweetness, hops are nicely leveled here.
M - Medium/thin bodied, slightly oily, medium carbonation.
Notes - Very drinkable, and with this one I prefer to let it sit in the glass and get a little bit above fridge temp.

Appearance: clear yellowish orange in color with a one finger head that lasts a while. Nice lacing paints the glass.
Smell: yeast, grass, and some milder citrus tones are easy to detect.
Taste: nice malt base with big spicy yeast flavors, pepper, green grapes, citrus, and a mild bitterness. Alcohol is somewhat noticeable.
Mouthfeel: medium-heavy in body. Crisp from start to finish, and the finish is also a bit drying. Aftertaste is long as the yeast and spices linger on the tongue.
Drinkability: great flavored beer that is a slow sipping ale. Worth seeking this one out.

A: Poured from a growler to a tulip glass. Had a bright yellow color and a cloudy texture. There was a quarter inch of foamy head and some very good lacing.
S: The aroma was very fruity, with hints of hops and a mild malt quality.
T: More than anything, the fruit came out in this one. It was citrusy, hoppy and slightly malty. There may have been a little apple in there as well. A solid flavor.
M: Had a lively amount of carbonation and a smooth finish. Medium-bodied.
D: This is a well made, drinkable beer. It's very zesty and easy to like.

Fedelta has a bright golden color with some tangerine thrown in. A loose but fairly stable white head stayed for a bit leaving little lace, barely none. Smell is of belgian yeast, banana some slight citrus qualities and malt sweetness. Some hay as well. Taste takes a nosedive as it's just not hitting me. I think im just not fond of this particular yeast strain. Taste is some rotting banana with not so pleasant yeast with some floral and citrus in the finish. Feel is below medium with low carb which aint all that bad. I drank this quick to be done with it.

Pours a slightly fogged amber gold with a white head. Flavor is smooth. Mild Belgian yeast strain bite with minor spices and an overall earthiness. Interesting mature fruit tones. Carbonation has a bit of a bite. Liquid is sticky thick. Nice to drink.

(From notes)
A - Light orange/yellow gold. Poured with a thinner white head that held pretty well.
S - Citruisy, spicey, get some cloves and malt sweetness
T - Spices show up first, but fairly light; lemon sherbet; and pretty sweet
M - Lighter, slightly sticky, and spritzy carbonation
D - Nicely drinkable, and pleasant. Alcohol warmth provides a soothing character to the brew
Overall, pretty aligned with what I would expect for the style, and a nicely done brew. Definitely recommended.

Sampled on-tap at the Allagash night at American Flatbread in Burlington. The color of the beer was a cloudy, raw-honey/amber hue and the head was beige. The retention was good and the lacing off the collar nice. The aroma was slightly musty malt, citrus hops and wheat. Compared to the rather subtle aroma the flavors were huge! I tasted oak, vanilla, grapefruit, orange peel, spices, sugarcane sugar and pale malt. It was like a cognac in complexity with a pleasant sweetness that helped make it highly enjoyable. The finish was crisp and hoppy. The mouthfeel was smooth, the carbonation light and the body medium.

Draught @ BTAH.
Pours a hazy gold, white head.
Nose stays underneath; some yeast, bit of apricot, a bit grassy.
Taste is sweet up front, more apricot, but balanced from the beginning by the yeast and a fresh grassy hoppiness that carries just a hint of barnyard funk with it, coupled with a dry, light malt sweetness. Finish is interesting, bit yeasty and rich, with some sweet fruity esters, and a a lingering grassy bitterness that takes a bit to emerge after every sip. I even got a hint of white grapes later in the glass. Ever changing.
Mouthfeel is medium bodied, with a sparkling carbonation. Aspects of a nice, crisp blonde and a saison, all with a bit more oomf. Fantastic. I have a soft spot for crisp, grassy, hoppy Belgians, so this one hit home for me.

On tap at Capone's. Pours a cloudy gold with a small white head. Aroma of wheat, some clove and spices. Flavor is very wheaty with tons of spices and yeast. Definitely more of a witbier (similar to Fluxus too I think). Pretty chill and easy to drink.

LINDALE, TX (KLTV) - Ronald Oas's career as a U.S. Navy Submariner ranged from the early subs of World War II to the sophisticated nuclear subs of today. Oas, called "runt" by childhood playmates, joined the Submarine Service at the age of 17. In his first taste of war, his submarine The U.S.S. Pollack destroyed two Japanese cargo ships and then had to wait silently under water while 600 pound depth charges exploded all around it. The Pollack would sink 11 Japanese ships and damage 24 before during its four war patrols in World War II ended.
Ronald Oas went on to spend 21 years in "the Silent Service" on submarines ranging from the early diesel/battery subs to the prestigious U.S.S. Robert E. Lee Nuclear sub. Oas has written about his experiences in his book "Honor Of The Name".

FRANKTON — Despite a government shutdown closing national parks across the country, the Frankton eighth-grade class will still be making its annual field trip to Washington, D.C.
Theresa Edwards, the trip coordinator and chaperon, has been busy trying to figure out which sites will be open for the class to see. She said she has spent all week rescheduling and coordinating meetings.
"I've been telling the kids they're going to be a part of history," Edwards said, "because the school has been going for years and we've never dealt with a government shutdown."
Despite the shutdown canceling some plans and leaving others in doubt, Edwards said there was never a question of whether the class would go to the nation's capital. The class raised the money for the trip last year.
Gettysburg National Park, the Smithsonian and many of the iconic D.C. monuments the students usually visit are currently closed due to the shutdown.
Edwards said they are still planning on visiting Gettysburg, where they will be limited in what they can see. She said she has arranged for a tour guide who isn't a government employee to take the class through the major battlefield landmarks.
Edwards said she schedules the trips through the National 4-H Center, which eliminates the need for a travel company or hotels. The center runs a program called "Wonders of Washington" that will take the Frankton students on a night tour of the capital.
Edwards said the class is also planning on visiting the National Cathedral, the Kennedy Center, Mount Vernon, the Arlington Cemetery and the Pentagon. They will also be meeting with U.S. Rep. Susan Brooks from Indiana's 5th District.
Edwards said she is hoping the government opens back up by Saturday because the class plans on visiting the Smithsonian Institute that day. Currently the Smithsonian is closed until the shutdown is lifted. Edwards isn't sure what they will do if the closings linger into next week.

Considering recent developments with Tim Thomas' career, I ask you readers of TheBruinsBlog.net:
Would you welcome Tim Thomas back to the Bruins?
Total Voters: 290
I really don't like that he announced this during the cup finals. It would have been real easy for him to not do anything for a week and let the devils and kings have their time, which is a part of the reason pretty much no one outside of New York respects A-Rod after he got his leaving the Yankees announced in the middle of the world series. Given A-Rod's was worse because it was also a self-advertisement, but it stands that the attention should be on just these two teams in the hockey world right now, not on timmy. His turn was last year, be graceful and give Quick his due.
I love the way Timmy plays, but this is classless and it makes me pretty glad timmy will probably never wear the spoked B again.
At this point, it doesn't matter what we think. Timmy has already made that decision for us and management. He has gone from being a hero to a pretty selfish player, not thinking about the team or teammates, only himself.
I can understand wanting to reconnect with his family, friends and faith but can that not wait 1 more year. I think all of us would like the chance to spend more time with family and friends but we live in reality.

Stellar Wind
National Security Agency surveillance
Stellar Wind or STELLARWIND is the code name of a Sensitive Compartmented Information security compartment for information collected under the President's Surveillance Program (PSP).[1] This was a program by the United States National Security Agency (NSA) during the presidency of George W. Bush and revealed by Thomas Tamm to The New York Times in 2008.[2]
The operation was approved by President George W. Bush shortly after the September 11 attacks in 2001.[3] STELLARWIND was succeeded during the presidency of Barack Obama by four major lines of intelligence collection in the territorial United States together capable of spanning the full range of modern telecommunications.[4]
The program's activities involved data mining of a large database of the communications of American citizens, including e-mail communications, phone conversations, financial transactions, and Internet activity.[2] William Binney, a retired Technical Leader with the NSA, discussed some of the architectural and operational elements of the program at the 2012 Chaos Communication Congress.[5]
The intelligence community was also able to obtain from the Treasury Department suspicious activity reports, or "SARS", which are reports of activities such as large cash transactions that are submitted by financial institutions under anti-money laundering rules.[2]
There were internal disputes within the Justice Department about the legality of the program, because data are collected for large numbers of people, not just the subjects of Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA) warrants.[5][6] During the Bush Administration, the Stellar Wind cases were referred to by FBI agents as "pizza cases" because many seemingly suspicious cases turned out to be food takeout orders. According to Mueller, approximately 99 percent of the cases led nowhere, but "it's that other 1% that we've got to be concerned about".[3]
In March 2012 Wired magazine published "The NSA Is Building the Country's Biggest Spy Center (Watch What You Say)" talking about a vast new NSA facility in Utah and says "For the first time, a former NSA official has gone on the record to describe the program, codenamed STELLARWIND, in detail," naming the official William Binney, a former NSA code breaker. Binney went on to say that the NSA had highly secured rooms that tap into major switches, and satellite communications at both AT&T and Verizon.[7] The article suggested that the otherwise dispatched STELLARWIND is actually an active program. This conclusion was supported by the exposure of Room 641A in AT&T's operations center in San Francisco in 2006.
In June 2013 the Washington Post and the Guardian published an OIG draft report, dated March 2009, leaked by Edward Snowden detailing the Stellar Wind program.[1][8]

A sex offender who locked himself inside a Wendy's restaurant bathroom with a 10-year-old boy and attacked him pleaded guilty in a Portland courtroom Wednesday.
Adam Brown, 49, received a 33-year sentence for the crimes he committed on July 1. Brown forced the child into the bathroom of a Wendy's restaurant at Northeast Sandy Boulevard and 29th Avenue on a weekend afternoon.
He stabbed the boy multiple times as the child fought back, police said. Eventually, with the boy's father trying to break down the door, the child emerged from the bathroom naked and bloody, according to court documents.
Other customers then held the bathroom door shut until police arrived in hopes of preventing Brown from escaping. Police arrested Brown after a two-hour standoff.
The injured boy was taken to the hospital and had to undergo surgery.
Brown has a long history of sex abuse and violent crimes. He is a predatory sex offender. FOX 12 reported his long history of repeated arrests last July.
In a 1993 case, allegations surfaced that Brown, who has HIV, tried to kill children by using sex to infect them with the virus. When Brown was sentenced, none of the children had tested positive for HIV. The charges would have been more severe if they had.
The victim's family did not attend the sentencing hearing Wednesday, but in a statement read in the courtroom they described Brown as a "sick, evil, twisted human being." It said:
"I speak for all parents when I say you do not deserve to be alive. The fact that you're going to prison for a very long time, will never justify the actions you've taken. The real justice comes when you are judged by God to burn in hell. I hope when that time comes you will remember our son and all the past victims you've wounded mentally and physically. And know this, their wounds are healing yours will not. You have brought pain and sadness to my family. The horror that our son had to go through will always be in the depths of his mind; but broken is something he will never be. His resilience and strength to fight against the ignorance of men, I mean monsters like you, reassures him that this is only temporary. To know you're a parent yourself is extremely disturbing. How do you bring children into this world and then turn around and assault them? You're a sick, evil twisted human being and you deserve the punishment coming to you."

In his Bangor Daily News blog, "Education: Future Imperfect," University of Maine professor of history Howard Segal reflects on the impersonal nature of interactive television classes. Though videoconferencing technology has improved since the mid-1990s, Segal points out that by teaching before a classroom of students, instructors can assess how well they are getting through to students through facial and intellectual responses. Segal cautions against a "blind faith in high-tech hardware and software to replace traditional teacher-student formats" that characterizes so much educational advocacy today.

Schoolmates open West Cumbrian garage
Last updated at 20:01, Thursday, 26 April 2012
Two Cockermouth school friends, who have known each other since they were 12, have gone into business together.
Andrew Holliday and Barrie Studholme have opened Derwent Mills Garage on the town's Derwent Mills Industrial Estate.
The pair, who both went to Cockermouth School, are both qualified mechanics.
Andrew, 33, of Melbreak Avenue, previously worked at P&R Benn at Oakhurst Garage on Lamplugh Road.
Barrie, 34, originally of Broughton but who now lives at Wentworth Park, Workington, has worked at the Gote Garage in Gote Road and at Fairfield Garage in Station Road.
Andrew said: "Opening our own garage was something we always wanted to do as we wanted to be our own boss.
"We thought about it and tried to buy various different sites, but they never came off but then we found this location and got the go-ahead."
They said they hoped to be able to take on a secretary and an apprentice.

Red Sox sign Byrd to Minor League deal
Veteran righty retired following 2008 season with Boston
ST. PETERBURG -- Roughly a year ago, the Red Sox were sputtering a little in the rotation and added dependable veteran Paul Byrd in a waiver pickup from the Cleveland Indians. So there was a feeling of déjà vu when the Sox announced late Wednesday night that they had reached an agreement with Byrd on a Minor League contract.
The only difference is that no waiver process was needed to secure Byrd's services this time around. He had been temporarily retired, but staying in shape all year in case the right situation presented itself.
"I'm excited," said Byrd. "I think I can be back in shape and help them out in whatever role they need me to help them out in September. Maybe I can get that World Series ring."
The Red Sox have given him that opportunity, though it's unclear when Byrd will be ready to join manager Terry Francona's rotation. Byrd will start out at the team's Spring Training complex in Fort Myers, Fla.
Josh Beckett and Jon Lester have been dominant at the top of the rotation, but the team hasn't been able to fill the void left by Tim Wakefield and Daisuke Matsuzaka, both of whom are on the disabled list.
Brad Penny, John Smoltz and Clay Buchholz have all been inconsistent.
"I am in shape, I have been throwing," said Byrd. "It's not like I haven't picked up a ball. I have been throwing, I've been off a mound twice in the last three days, six times in the last two weeks. There's a difference between pitching in a game and throwing a bullpen. I would need to start out at one or two innings and build up arm strength."
The 38-year-old Byrd has is a career 108-93 with an ERA of 4.38. For the Red Sox last season, he made eight starts, going 4-2 with a 4.78 ERA.

DAYTON, Ohio (AP) -- Investigators are trying to determine the cause of a small plane crash in southwest Ohio that injured the pilot and his lone passenger.
The Dayton post of the State Highway Patrol on Tuesday identified the pilot as 50-year-old Douglas Morgan of Middletown. Authorities say Morgan and his passenger were taken to a hospital with injuries that were not considered life-threatening. The passenger's name was not immediately available.
The patrol says the plane crashed shortly after 10 p.m. Monday in a wooded area near interstates 75 and 675 in Miami Township.
The plane's departure and destination sites were not immediately known.
The Dayton Daily News reports that more than 1,100 Dayton Power and Light customers were left without power for a time due to a damaged transmission line.

Customers trying to pay for their cups of coffee at a Tim Hortons restaurant in Alberta, Canada this weekend were told "no charge."
The free java was thanks to an anonymous donor who employees say slapped down nearly 900 Canadian dollars to pay for customers' orders behind him.
"One customer came in, and he said oh I want to buy 500 coffees," said one employee. "And I was like why, and he was like no reason."
There were similar incidents reported at Tim Hortons across Canada at least six different times last week. A representative for the restaurant chain says the free coffees were not a publicity stunt and that the restaurant has nothing to do with the Good Samaritans.
