A- Most of these marks come from the bottle and/or label. I love the colorful label that stands out from the crowd and the gold foil on the neck of the bottle always is impressive. Once I poured this, it looks pretty average. It has a slightly hazy orange-ish hue and a very thin head that fizzles out quickly. The lacing is thin as well. There doesn't appear to be much carbonation either.
S- Well if I didn't know this was a beer, it easily passes as a tropical juice! Intense aromas of mangoes, peaches, apricots etc dominate the aroma....quite pleasant. It does smell sweet and syrupy, and I don't detect any hop presence, so this loses a half point, otherwise it smells like a fruit salad!
T- Again, this has a great tropical medley of flavor! It reminds me of juice with club soda mixed in it...or spiked punch! I do detect a slight malt flavor in the mix here, but nothing major. I find the wheat beer base acts as an enhancer to the fruitiness of this brew!
M- This would be a perfect substitute for a desert, as it has a moderately viscous feel to it and combined with the intensity of the flavors, it could almost pass as a carbonated nectar! It's rich and really hits the spot.
D- I can envision myself on a beach somewhere slamming these back, and with the lower alcohol level, you won't feel sluggish after drinking a few. Great for the crowd who's into the alco-pops but want something a little different. Big thumbs up on this one!

Whether or not you like Floris Ninkeberry depends on what you are looking for in a fruit beer. If you are looking for a beer with hints of fruit you'll be disappointed. If you're looking for a very fruit-forward drink with hints of beer you'll have hit the jackpot. Personally, I dig both, and find taht with the fruit category you have to set all you preconceptions aside and be prepared to receive either of the two possibilities.
As soon as the beautiful bottle is cracked open you can tell this is heavy on the fruit, Ripe aromas of mango, peach and passionfruit waft upwards, only to be heightened once the beer is actually poured. A faint beer aspect clings to the profile, but may be more imagination than anything. The pour itself results in a straw coloured liquid sitting under a frothy white head, that although it shows passable retention, only leaves a few isolated spots of lace. Juice is the first thing that comes to mind as I taste this beer. I have a jug of tropical fruit juice in the fridge, and this tastes like a sweetened version. Passionfruit leads off and forms the main thrust of the flavour, but its also joined by mango, peach and apricot. A very light and pale maltiness can be found in the finish. No bitterness at all,, and a moderate to high sweetness. The body alternates between light and sticky, but is of little consequence, as the beer drinks so quickly that its gone in a little over five minutes.
If I was craving a beer would I reach for this? Probably not. If I wanted something light and refreshing, then why the hell not?

Ingredients: water, malt, wheat, fruit juices: Mango appricot-peach-passionfruit, hops, yeast, flavour.
Definitely a fruit beer in style (rather than pale ale), practically a malternative. It seems like I've had this in the fridge forever... yet it's best before date is still 14 months away? With the residual sweetness from the fruit, it must be well pasteurized.
A: Hazy golden straw with an off-white, fizzy head. No retention, only hints of lace.
S: The peach really jumps out... like those fake, fuzzy candies. There's a blend of other fruity aromas as well (says mango, apricot and passionfruit on the label).
T: Very fruity. The passionfruit is up front, with a hint of tartness to balance the sweetness. The apricot is readily apparant, with peach & mango in the background. Zero hop flavour. There's a bit of fake 'flavour' though.
M: Light, fizzy body is refreshing. Incredible for its strength.
D: I don't like fruit 'beer', but this is actually quite drinkable! Who would've thought?

reviewing this considering it as a fruit beer and not as a belgian pale as it seems to be more appropriate. the label calls it a "fruitbeer based on wheatbeer".
pours a hazy yellow colour with a quarter inch of thin white head. the head drops quickly to a small ring around the glass. no lacing.
aroma is great. very fruity. at first i thought peaches, but it's more tropical than that. apricots. mango or pineapple. maybe some light citrus hops, like tangerine or orange. slightly sweet. nice.
taste is interesting. sweet and fruity. initially it's like a tropical fruit drink, then finishes more beer like. apricot/mango/pineapple from the aroma are all present. just a hint of bitterness. very sweet, almost to the point of being syrupy.
mouthfeel is good. light and refreshing.
drinkability is good. alcohol is low, and hidden well. but for me the sweetness takes away from the drinkability a little. my wife (who is not a beer drinker) loves this and has told me that i must buy more for her.

Poured into a small goblet. First thing I noticed was the head. Their wasn't much, but what was their was firm. Colour is a cloudy orange. Almost hazy. Lacing almost coats the glass, and leaves little rings behind whenever I take a sip, measuring how much I've taken. Smells like fruit punch. Peaches, pears, apricots, mangos, pomegranates and one other fruit which I can't quite figure out. Their is a very faint scent of crackers as well. Overall, a bit too sweet for my nostrils. Reminded me of KoolAid. The tase, however, is an improvement. Their is a bit of sweetness to it, but it's mostly sour. Now, this I like. A blend of fruits on crackers. And that fruit I couldn't figure out on the nose? It's passionfruit. Definitely passionfruit. Their is a bit of a dry maltiness to the flavour as well. No bitterness whatsoever. Although their is a bit if a dry, grassy texture to this, I doubt any hops were used at all. Mouthfeel is a bit dry, sticky and chewy, with a mild earthiness on the cheeks. Oddly, it is quite drinkable. I would enjoy having this again. Though, as a session brew I'll pass. Though I like sweet and sour, I like it in small doses.

Pale straw yellow appearance with very bubbly head. Smell is sweet with a wide variety of fruit, such as pineapple and mango.
Taste is mainly cranberry, mango's and strawberry, very sweet but still crisp and refreshing. Picked up some wheat. Medium bodied with moderate carbonation. After taste is bitter with a lingering strawberry taste.
This is a pretty good fruit beer. Not a beer typical beer I would drink on a regular basis, but refreshing to drink once and while, especially if it is hot outside.

Ninkeberry looks arguably as much like juice as it does beer - which is not surprising considering fruit juices make up 30% of its contents! Its body is a pale straw colour with a thin, misty haze. Its bubbles are almost cartoonishly large and all seem to rise at their own pace. Sooner or later, however, all end up as part of its (pristine white) milky frothing.
The aroma is graceful and delicate. It is nearly as floral as it is fruity. It is fragrant but gentle and subdued. It's the aura of a colourful garden and hot sunny weather. It exudes the tender, elegant scent of roses, lavender and jasmine. Its fruitiness is far from cloying - the mango, apricot, passionfruit and peach smell like the real deal.
And it tastes like the real deal, too - real fruit juice that is. I happen to be big on fruit juices and nectars - the real, freshly squeezed, pulpy stuff and not the frozen, vitamin-enriched, corn syrup blended concentrate crap - and as such, I really like this Ninkeberry. As a beer drinker, which I also happen to be, I don't seem to mind it.
And looking at the (limited) consensus on this website it seems I'm far from alone in considering it a surprisingly respectable fruit beer. To use the word "respectable" is rare with beers of this nature - formulating sweetener and artificial flavours into sub-par beer is not exactly a practice most of us on this site would consider "respectable". But this one is.
The mouthfeel is thin but what do expect from a beer of 3.5%? Sure, it does have a very high-pitch, aspartame-like sweetness but that dissipates almost immediately and all that lingers is the delicious taste of fruit. I hate to say it but this one might hold its own with IPAs and Weiss beers when it comes to hot weather suited drinkability.
It is unlikely that anyone should hate Floris Ninkeberry, although I would understand people preferring a more beer-like and less juice-like offering. This is one fruit beer that does not contain all the cloying sweetness, the obviously artificial flavouring and the syrupy texture that has riddled most North American fruit beers. This fruit beer is exactly what it should be: a tasty, refreshing, light drinking beverage perfectly suited to warm weather.

The beer poured into the chalice very lightly hady pale golden straw with a very low head which existed very lightly at the surface to end up with slight lacing of the glass.
The aroma was fruity with a strong character of peaches. Some butterscotch aroma was also present as was a very sweet impression. Behind the sweet and peach lurked what seemed to be a very, very slight tartness.
The flavor was lightly tart with a peach and nectarine quality of fruitiness. The tartness was acidic with lemons and a bit of orange character. The flavor began on the palate with a light sweetness, but quickly dried with the light acidity of the tartness.
The finish was dry with a lasting impression of peaches and citrus lasting pleasantly into the aftertaste. The body was medium with a fairly low level of carbonation. A fairly easy drinking and not overly sweet beer. The tartness assists with the drinkability.
330 ml bottle. I am at a bit of a loss on this one. The ABV was 3% and on the front label it says Ninkebery while on the back Ninkeberry. Also it says "White Beer with Mixed Fruit." Oh well, it can go under this listing.

Peach-straw coloured, half ginger spritzy off-white head. The beer is cloudy, in sunshine it showed a lemon-lime hue. Minor slippery lacing, wispy centre after the fizz subsides. Smell is strawberry, a fresh basket of peaches, tropical fruit punch. Taste of fruit juice very much apparent, of which 30 per cent of this beer is comprised according to the label. Not a lot of bitter happening, stone fuiit flavours dominate. Aside from the fact that it doesn't taste much like beer, it's refreshing and satisfying, perfect for mixed company and as a conversation piece on a summer patio. Pleasant and avoids the syrupy texture of some fruit-juice-added fruit beers, crisp mouthfeel is influenced by wheat and barley malt backdrop. Well worth a try although I always find it hard to take fruit beers too seriously.

Pours a cloudy orange with a nice tall head with good retention. Spiderweb lacings all the way down. Loads of visible carbonation.
Smells like... fruit. Incredibly sweet, like concentrate. Strawberry (artificial strawberry) is the standout aroma.
Well, as advertised! Heaps of fruit, mango and strawberry are the easiest to pick out. It tastes like candy. Super sweet, but nice and refreshing when cold. Wheat adds a bit of character and some good body.
It does what it does well. Can't fault them for making a tasty drink.

Pours a light straw, bit of gold, thick white head forms, doesn't leave, very sticky, nice lacing. Smell is very sweet and very fruity, peaches, strawberry, air fresheners, you get the drift, pretty artificial to me. Taste is very sweet, big peach hit, I get the passionfruit, some strawberry, general fruit, juicy, a bit cloying in the finish, but not bad for what it is. Mouthfeel is medium bodied with low carbonation, quite syrupy, but for a fruit beer a lot of what seems like real flavour. I agree with previous posters that this should be in a different category, because as a fruit beer I can't find much fault with it, although a bit syrupy and cloying.

The hazy straw body is topped by a fairly retentive white head. There's lots of visible carbonation. The aroma is of sweet tropical and and orchard fruits. It smells of mango, apricot, and peach. There's something that reminds me slightly of pineapple, which I assume to be passionfruit. It's not anywhere as sweet as Chapeau Exotic or Fruli. It's still quite sweet though. This has a pretty big fruit flavour, to the exclusion of any character the base beer might have on its own. Despite the last ingredient being a rather cryptic "Flavour," this tastes pretty natural. Must be "natural" flavour. A little bit of acidity cuts the sweetness a little. It's light bodied and sticky. Even with a little lift from the lively carbonation, I still found it a little bit cloying towards the end.

This is a fruit beer, not a belgian pale.
Interesting brew, slight haze due to wheat content, light orange color, little head and beautiful lacing. Smells like fruit juice, lots of mango, pinnaple, passion fruit.
Taste is slightly sour, tart. Very little hop or malt. Quite interresting none the less. 3.5% ABV. makes this a nice mellow fruit beer.

Served on-draught into an Antwerp beer passion weekend 2011 beer sommelier stem-glass at Antwerp beer passion weekend in June 2011. Reviewed from notes. I'd had it before out of the bottle in Dublin and preferred it bottled.
A: Pours a two finger head of nice soft cream, great thickness, and good retention. Colour is a semitransparent gold.
Sm: A mild strength aroma of light berry fruit ester hops and maybe vanilla.
T: Berry fruit notes and ester hops - especially on the climax. Sweet but far from overly so. Simple but well balanced and pretty well built.
Mf: Smooth and wet, featuring nice sharp coarseness on the climax to coax out the flavours of the body. Complements the flavour nicely.
Dr: Priced highly, of good quality, easy to drink, and of average ABV. Worth a try if you're a fan of the style.
Better from the bottle, with some age on it.

Interesting fruit beer. I'll be honest, I have no idea what a ninkeberry is. Apparently it's a mix of passion fruit and mango according to wikipedia. Aroma is very fruity with candy overtones. Taste is candy fruity with lots of carbonation. For a fruit beer, it isn't bad, but not great either.

Pours a nice honey color topped by a bright white head.
It smells very exotic, nice and fruity, like fresh papaya, apricot and mango with and a hint of sweet perfume. I guess it smells like ninkeberries, but I'm quite sure I don't know what that is.
The taste is a sweet mango and ripe orange peach flesh with only a faint beery background. *pause for thought* Yeah. I really don't know what to say about this other than it tastes like peach and mango and passion fruit juice carbonated and mixed with beer. I'm sure there's a market for this, and if you like Früli this is probably going to be right up your alley. But it's too sweet for me and, even when viewed as a fruit beer, to me, the fruit should compliment the beer, not completely dominate it as is the case here.
Mouthfeel is medium bodied and perfectly carbonated.
I guess it tastes nice. But does it taste like beer? Not even close. Whoever listed this as a Belgian pale ale was on drugs.

Bottle with a date stamp of 05/12 and notches at b, M & 12. Poured into a Duvel tulip.
A: Pours a light brown with hints of pink. Light white head, little retention. Minimal lacing.
S: Berry aromas. Mango. Sweetness. Good for this type of beer
T: Where's the beer? Clearly not a live beer, as it is overly sweet and dominated solely by berry flavours. No malt character nor hop presence is noted. I may as well be drinking a Bacardi Breezer...
M: Cloying, and sticks to the tongue.
D: Upon reading the back label it seems to indicate in a language I am unfamiliar with that it is 30% juice. No wonder it is the way it is. A fruit drink, yes. A fruit beer? No.

Hazy gold with little head this beer has a very fruity nose . The taste in my mind is way too sweet with pineapple, mango coming to the front and overpowering the beer flavour. I like fruit beers but this one was like a girl's drink and not really worth drinking.

You pay federal and state income tax, but how would you feel about adding a city income tax?
Just a few months ago, residents of Benton Harbor passed a millage renewal to help reduce the city's deficit.
Now, some Commissioners have another plan to balance the budget.
Commissioners Trenton Bowen and Marcus Muhammad are taking the lead on a new proposal for a city income tax.
"We must do something about it. It's crucial. It's just simple. We have to do something about it," says Bowen.
They say enough hasn't been done by emergency managers and it's time to put matters into the citizens' hands.
"I don't think they would mind paying a tax if they knew the tax dollars was going towards a good purpose or good cause," says Muhammad.
The tax would be 1% on residents.
The average income in Benton Harbor is $17,000 a year. On that salary, you'd pay $170 dollars more to the city a year if the tax passed.
People who work in the city, but don't live there would pay .5%.
"Have the non-resident who's working and making in money in Benton Harbor, share the sacrifice," says Muhammad. At a town hall meeting Monday, residents listened to presentations explaining the tax. Commissioners say if the income tax passes, the city may be able to lower the millage to give homeowners a break on property taxes.
Some are behind it, "Whatever is going to benefit the city of Benton Harbor, improve the city of Benton Harbor, I think that we should go for it," said a resident.Others disagree, saying they're already paying enough in taxes, "I pay my taxes in Benton Township. I live in Benton Township, therefore I pay my school taxes to Benton Harbor School and we don't have children," says Mary Balfort, who lives in Benton Township, but works in Benton Harbor.
She says because she doesn't live in the city, she wouldn't be able to vote on the proposal.
Instead, she says she'd vote with her feet.
"I will do my best not to work in Benton Harbor is this is the case," says Balfort.
A few Michigan cities have a city tax, including Grand Rapids.
The Commissioners want this on the ballot in November.
In order to do that to happen, they need to approve an ordinance change with a two-thirds vote.
Then, five of the nine Commissioners would have to sign off on a resolution to go on the ballot by August 27th.
The Commissioners will be having another Town Hall meeting on July 27th at noon at Benton Harbor City Hall.

Baseball to Welcome Columbia in Weeknight Contests
Coming off an Atlantic Sun series with Mercer over the weekend that concluded with a 16-inning 6-3 victory in the final game, the Eagles bring their 8-7 (3-3 A-Sun) record into the weeknight games.
A trio of Eagles hold averages above the .300 plateau through the first 15 games. Senior Zach Maxfield (North Port, Fla./North Port HS/Pasco-Hernando CC) continues to lead the charge with his .367 mark, which has featured team-bests with 22 hits, 17 RBI, six doubles, four homeruns, 12 walks, a .667 slugging percentage and a .480 on-base percentage. Junior Javi Sujo (Miami, Fla./Miami Sunset HS/Middle Georgia College) is batting .324 and slugging .351 with a .395 OBP and senior Stephen Wickens (Whitby, Ontario/Sinclair Secondary) is hitting .309 with a team-high 21 runs scored.
On the bump, the Eagles have yet to name starters for the two contests.
Columbia is set to compete in a Monday afternoon game with South Alabama to close their four-game series. The Lions dropped the opening two contests in the set, but came back with a 5-2 victory in game three to level their record at 3-3 on the season. Like the Eagles, Columbia owns wins over Illinois and Central Michigan.
Alex Godshall holds a .500 batting average and on-base percentage through the opening six games, while Dario Pizzano and Nick Cox each sit above .300, hitting .429 and .367, respectively.
With the season now in full swing, the FGCU baseball team has announced its recently launched Twitter page. Eagle fans can now follow the three-time defending Atlantic Sun champs on the social networking site @FGCUBaseball.
Also new this season, Eagle baseball fans will have direct access to the press box for all home games, and select away games, through the use of the Cover It Live platform. Followers will be able to chat with other fans, get clarification on plays and calls, ask questions and obtain team, player and opponent records and statistics while the game progresses. This feature will be available for both contests with Columbia, as well as, the upcoming A-Sun weekend series with Campbell. The Cover It Live coverage will begin approximately 30 minutes prior to the opening pitch.
Live stats, in-game twitter (@FGCUBaseball), Cover It Live chat, results and recaps from the contest will be available at www.FGCUAthletics.com.

Update: December 20
The Leafing Program has been delayed for a few days due to interruptions by two heavy rain events, the Thanksgiving holiday and four (4) responses to winter events. The same trucks are used in both leaf collection and snow response, so responding to snow events requires temporary suspensions of the Leafing Program.
The SECOND round of Leaf Collections is expected to be completed this week. Leaf collection crews will then check the Leaf Collection Distrtict to address any remaining leaves that residents within the Leaf Collection District were unable to place roadside due to the rain and snow/ice events.
If you believe your leaves have been missed or you now have them placed at the curb (out of the street) please call 311 (240-777-0311 if calling from outside the county) for a leaf pickup service request. Leaf crews will ONLY respond to requests made through the 311 Customer Service System.
General Location Boundaries
If your home is not in the Leaf Collection District, click here for information to become included in the Leaf Collection Program.
Leaf Piles
Please remember to keep your leaves OUT OF THE STREET!
Placing leaf piles in the street can cause many problems such as:
- Disrupting traffic — many neighborhoods have narrow streets and on-street parking. Large piles of leaves extending out into the roadway limits parking and the ability of vehicles, especially school buses, to safely negotiate the streets.
- Disrupting surface drainage—rain storms can cause leaves and debris to clog storm drains and ditches. This leads to localized flooding.
- Hampering snow removal operations—snow covered leaf piles can become frozen to the roadway surface and can also become extremely heavy, taxing the abilities of our snow plows to move them and slowing down snow clearing in your neighborhood. Snow plow drivers may also mistake snow-covered leaf pile for snow, spreading the leaves all over the street. Residents then have a difficult time raking these scattered leaves back up.
- Posing a fire hazard to vehicles parked over them—there have been many examples of car fires that were caused by the extremely hot catalytic converters of the cars' exhaust system igniting the dry leaves.
- Becoming very slippery in wet weather - causing hazards to vehicles attempting to stop, start or change direction. Accidents have resulted from such causes.
Keeping leaf piles out of the streets prevents these problems. Rest assured that our crews can get your to leaves that are placed on the grass. Any discoloration of the grass is temporary as it is dormant at this time.
The Division of Highway Services no longer directly hires seasonal workers for the leaf collection program. Seasonal workers are being hired by two companies. Please contact them if you wish to work in the leaf collection program:
Earn Contractors - contact Roseanna at 301-749-3880
Colossal Contractors - contact Gloria at 301-476-9060
The 2013 Leaf Collection Season
The Division of Highway Services started the FIRST round of leaf collection services on
Leaf Collection District
The Leaf Collection District is generally south of Bel Pre Road, east of I-270/I-495 and west of New Hampshire Avenue, to the District line. DETAILED MAP
The Leaf Collection Program continues for 6 to 8 weeks, and includes postings for 2 scheduled pick-ups.
First collection. We will post green signs throughout the work areas several days before our crews' arrival. We will attempt to allow a weekend for residents to rake their leaves to the edge of the road for vacuum pick-up. Signs will be removed after our crews complete each street.
The second and final fall collection will begin after Thanksgiving. The timing will depend on weather conditions. Red signs will indicate that this is the final collection. The same posting, collection, and sign removal procedures are used for both vacuum collections.
If you believe that your leaves may have been missed, please contact the MC311 call center by clicking in the MC311 logo on the left or by dialing 311. Additionally, you may call DHS at 240-777-7623.
The actual collection of the leaves can be affected by rain, snow and ice. These factors may cause a longer than normal collection effort. Depending on the severity of the inclement weather (which affects the ability of our leaf vacuums to collect leaves) other means of collection, such as front-end loaders, may be employed.
Residents Should:
- Note the information on the posted signs
- Rake leaves to the road edge (see pictures) or place leaves in paper yard waste bags.

Number of Theaters: 3,000
Prediction: $28 million
Post Grad
What's It All About: Alexis Bledel plays a recent college grad who finds the real world more challenging than she expected.
Why It Might Do Well: Bledel was adorable on Gilmore Girls and her politically incorrect grandmother is being played by Carol Burnett.
Why It Might Not Do Well: Do moviegoers really want to be reminded of the crappy job market?
Number of Theaters: 1,900
Prediction: $7 million
What's It All About: Robert Rodriguez directs this family comedy about a young boy who finds a rainbow colored rock that grants his every wish.
Why It Might Do Well: This is the guy who brought us the Spy Kids flicks.
Why It Might Not Do Well: Some believe that a film starring that guy from Pretty in Pink from the guy who directed Sin City may dislodge the Earth from its orbit.
Number of Theaters: 3,000
Prediction: $18 million
X Games 3D The Movie
What's It All About: Documentary about the X Games, an annual event that features extreme action sports like skateboarding and freestyle motocross.
Why It Might Do Well: Because it's EXTREEEEME! The 3D should be pretty cool too.
Why It Might Not Do Well: 3D or not, I don't see a documentary being a huge draw.
Number of Theaters: 1,200
Prediction: $4 million
The last time Robert Rodriguez and Quentin Tarantino had movies opening at the same time we got the financial flop that was Grindhouse. Will they do better this time? Here's my prediction:

Borg confident it will be a big year for St Joes pair
Updated 11:23pm Wednesday 5th February 2014 in Sport
ST JOSEPH'S proud head boxing trainer Tony Borg is tipping his charges Gary Buckland and Lee Selby to have a stellar 2014, writes Michael Pearlman.
The Newport trainer enjoyed double delight on Saturday at Cardiff's Motorpoint Arena with both fighters enjoying career defining victories.
British featherweight champion Lee Selby defeated Rendall Monroe – his toughest opponent to date – to capture the European title and looked dazzling in doing so in six one-sided rounds before a stoppage.
And Newport's Buckland, coming off a defeat that saw him lose his British super featherweight title, stepped up to lightweight and beat former world champion Gavin Rees via split decision in a British title eliminator.
The show and the two boxers in question have received major plaudits this week and Borg believes it's just the start for the pair of them.
And Borg admits he's not yet even certain if Buckland will remain at lightweight.
"It's a difficult one," he explained. "Obviously it's only 5lbs but that can make a huge difference to a fighter in terms of making weight and feeling at your best.
"We will sit down with Gary (Borg and Buckland's manager, Brian Powell) and discuss the best way forward."
Borg admits he's still not 100% certain about the outcome of Buckland's battle, other than believing it to be a fight of the year candidate.
"I've watched it back, I still think Gary nicked it, as I did on the night, but I understand why so many people called it a draw or just for Gavin Rees," he said.
"When I got in the ring after the fight Gary (Lockett, Rees' trainer) and I both commented that it might end up being a draw... it easily could've been."
And Borg is looking forward to testing himself on the continent in 2014 now that Selby is a European champion, the Barry-boxer building up to a possible world title opportunity in 2015.
"That was the real Lee Selby we saw," he said.
"The speed and the way he dominated, it was very, very impressive.
"We are watching him turn into a superstar and it's very satisfying.
"I expect them both to have a really good year."

Shopping center REIT Tanger Factory Outlet Centers announced yesterday its second-quarter dividend of $0.225 per share, the same rate it paid last quarter after raising the payout 7%, from $0.21 per share.
The board of directors said the quarterly dividend is payable on Aug. 15 to the holders of record at the close of business on July 30. The REIT has made quarterly payouts to investors since 1993 when it became a publicly traded company. It has increased the dividend annually since then.
The regular dividend payment equates to a $0.90-per-share annual dividend, yielding 2.6% based on the closing price of Tangers' stock on July 11.

Course SOWK 4350 York University
The students listed in this petition feel that the grading of the quizes was inconsistent and did not reflect the information found in the course readings. Furthermore, the professor-Bridgette Kitchen, did not reply to many students e-mails at any time during the course of this internet class. We are requesting that the grading of the quizes be changed to reflect the information found in the course readings.

The Bills are likely to be without safety Jairus Byrd on Sunday against the Ravens. Byrd is still not fully-recovered from his plantar fasciitis and is "longshot" to play in Week 4, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport.
Byrd has missed the entire offseason, preseason and the first three regular season games with the injury. Per Rapoport, the veteran wants to fully recover before taking the field for Bills, who placed the franchise tender on him this summer. He was named to the Pro Bowl and received All-Pro recognition for his work last season and held out for months in an attempt to force a trade or get a long-term deal from the Bills.
In Byrd's place for the fourth-consecutive game would be third-year safety Da'Norris Searcy. In three starts this season, Searcy has 21 total tackles, one sack and a fumble recovery.
The Bills will host the Ravens at Ralph Wilson Stadium on Sunday at 1 p.m. on CBS.

vacation rental description
We are currently booking our 2015 summer rental season. If you have interest in bookings please contact me after viewing my availability calendar. Please note 5% Chautauqua County occupancy tax will be added to future rentals.
This circa 1880 Victorian home is in Point Chautauqua on Chautauqua Lake, a beautiful lakeside resort community of quaint homes on winding lanes and towering trees. The 4-bedroom/2-bath house is not lakefront but just about 100 yards from the lake along a paved community path. The vacation home has been professionally decorated to make it a warm, relaxing spot. Sit and relax on the charming front porch or enjoy the privacy of the side porch and patio. Enjoy the extensive perennial gardens from the hammock or garden bench. Totally renovated and freshly decorated with modern kitchen and baths. First floor queen (new) bedroom and full bath; twin beds, twin bed w/pop-up trundle (new) and a double bed in three upstairs bedrooms plus 2nd full bath; patio with gas grill, patio fireplace, table and chairs; large fenced yard; mooring and non-motorized dingy available. Watch the sunset over the lake from a bench on the Point. Point Chautauqua achieved national historic status due to the 1875 design and of its quiet streets and community areas by Frederick Law Olmstead, an eminent 19th century landscape designer. It was his idea of the perfect terrain, hillside beside water. Many of the homes reflect the Victorian era.
Please note: Maximum occupancy is 8 guests including infants and children. We rent Friday-Friday full 7-day weeks only from June 27-August 29. 3-day weekend and week day availability prior to and post those dates.

More Yankees reports can be found on Pinstripe Alley.
Scouting the Sally - Jesus Montero, C, NYY
Jesus Montero (3-5, 2 R, 1 SB) - The jewel of the 2006 international free agent class, Jesus Montero signed for a two million dollar bonus as a 16-year old which forced Yankees fans to wait until 2008 for him to make his full season debut. After a .326/.376/.491 showing as an 18-year old, Yankees fans have reason to be excited as Montero will enter 2009 as one of the top young hitting prospects in the game and the possibly the organizations #1 prospect.
- Excellent height with room to fill out and add muscle
- Holds hands very low in stance; bat head straight up and down (think Jose Oquendo)
- Gets taller during load; normal hitting position
- Excellent bat speed; Explodes through ball
- Compact through strike zone; Excellent at keeping hands inside the ball
- Even swing plane through strike zone; Line drive swing
- Creates top spin, not back spin on hard hit balls
- Works middle of the field well; Hard hit balls to left-center and center field
- Aware on base paths; Stolen base; Advanced to 2B on fly ball to center field
- Defensive ability is that of an average high school varsity player; Awkward behind the plate
- Threw first inning throw down into center field; Dropped elbow; Stood straight up; Did not fire out
- Strong arm when elbow stayed up; Long wind up; Did not throw from the ear
- Did not protect bare hand behind the plate when receiving pitches
- Did not back up first base on a 6-4-3 double play; Catching IQ?
- Demeanor may rub some the wrong way; Some may question his intensity
Overall, Montero was an exciting player to watch. With his advanced hitting approach and repeatable swing mechanics, I can see him competing for batting titles. At 18, he has time to learn how to add backspin, but his line drive power should allow him to hit 25-30 home runs annually even if he doesn't. After watching both Montero and Jason Heyward play, I'm convinced Montero is a better pure hitter at this point while Heyward remains a better all-around prospect because of his defensive ability.
On defense, Montero is part project, part butcher behind the plate. His current catching ability is eons behind his offense and it would take a minor miracle for his defense to catch up. With that said, I question the Yankees decision to keep him behind the plate when his offense could be ready for the show by 21, but his catching will likely not be ready until years later if ever. The sensible move would be to move Montero to first base and allow Austin Romine to cement himself as the Yankees catcher of the future.
One other point worth mentioning is Montero's overall demeanor. Old school baseball fans may not appreciate the way Montero plays the game. From dancing in his catching squat between innings, to joking with the umpires, baseball purists may mistake his and youth and confidence for arrogance. He's a guy that could be the toast of the town when playing well, but a goat when slumping. However, he does have a star quality about him which could make him a very marketable and popular player.

Shakhtar Donetsk and Borussia Dortmund are two of the fastest and fittest teams on earth, so it came as no surprise when the two produced an exciting 2-2 draw in the first leg of their UEFA Champions League tie. Both teams refused to change their normal style of play despite having to play a very similar opponent, and the winner was the neutral viewer.
Der BVB appeared to benefit from playing the first leg of this tie away from home. The result of the first leg of this tie might have been the same no matter where they played it, but Dortmund look like they have a serious advantage now that they have two away goals. A 0-0 or 1-1 draw will send them through to the next round.
While tactics play a part in all matches, this one will come down more to the performances of individuals than any strategic moves both the two managers. Don't expect Jürgen Klopp or Mircea Lucescu to do anything out of the ordinary. They're going to let their players go to work in identical formations with minimal frills, and the better players will win.
Team News
Mats Hummels, who has been out with the flu since the match in Donetsk*, could potentially return on Tuesday. He'll have to pass a late fitness test to feature in the match. He scored in the first leg, but also didn't really cover himself in glory on Shakhtar's second goal. Felipe Santana is a capable defender and there's not much drop-off if he has to play. Otherwise, everyone's fit for Der BVB.
*You should have put on your darn hat and mittens instead of going out in the cold half-naked, why don't you ever listen to your mother?
The only injury concern for Shakhtar is Dmytro Chygrynskiy, who did not travel to Germany with his team. Like Dortmund, Shakhtar's second- and third-best central defenders are just as capable as their injured star.
Projected lineups (left to right)
Borussia Dortmund (4-2-3-1): Roman Weidenfeller; Marcel Schmelzer, Felipe Santana, Neven Subotic, Lukasz Piszczek; Ilkay Gündogan, Sebastian Kehl; Marco Reus, Mario Götze, Jakub Blaszczykowski; Robert Lewandowski
Shakhtar Donetsk (4-2-3-1): Andriy Pyatov; Razvan Rat, Yaroslav Rakitskiy, Oleksandr Kucher, Darijo Srna; Tomas Hübschman, Fernandinho; Taison, Henrikh Mkhitaryan, Alex Teixeira; Luiz Adriano
Key Matchups
Dortmund's CBs vs. Shakhtar's midfielders: Hummels failed to spot a run from Douglas Costa that led to Shakhtar's second goal in the first leg, and many of Shakhtar's goals this season have come via runs from deep by Fernandinho and Mkhitaryan. Dortmund's midfielders and fullbacks will have to track runners, as always, but their central defenders can't hang them out to dry. It's unreasonable to expect their midfielders and fullbacks to shut down every run before it gets started. Subotic and Santana (or Hummels) will have to be alert and anticipate those runs from deep.
Darijo Srna vs. Roman Weidenfeller: Srna scored Shakhtar's opener on a free kick in the first leg, and he's going to get chances to score from free kicks again. While Srna's free kick was excellent, Weidenfeller was a bit slow to react and could have made a save. If he's not on top of his game, it wouldn't be shocking to see Srna score from a dead ball again.
The managers vs. the possibility of extra time: Another 2-2 draw could certainly be on the cards, given how evenly matched these two teams are and how quickly they play. The two managers will have to manage their substitutions and the pace of their teams' play accordingly. While these are two of the fittest teams on the planet, a few players are bound to wear out after 120 minutes of football at a break-neck pace.
The match ends in another draw, but not one that benefits the visitors. Dortmund's defense is a bit stronger than the away leg, ending in a 1-1 draw that sends them through to the quarterfinals on away goals.

Best friends Katie Cox and Demi Messer have shared a lot of memorable experiences, 4 years of Woodruff High school, getting accepted to USC Upstate, and now both have become targets of the same job scam.
"They said I was guaranteed a job and they said I just had to apply over the phone," said Cox.
When she got the phone call, she says it was a no brainer. She had already heard the same pitch being offered to Messer an hour earlier, asking for her private information.
"It was too good to be true. There was no way the job was just going to fall into my lap like that, especially when I hadn't even applied," said Messer.
It left them wondering, why them?
"I asked them how they got my name and they said a friend referred me and they gave me their first and last name and I knew I didn't know this person and so I started to look them up and they were a friend on my friend's list."
Cox is referring to her Facebook page. And she admits she is "bad" about accepting friends she doesn't even know.
Both women think the scammer checked out their pages and picked a friend as a referral to sound more legitimate. They also both admit their phone numbers were listed on their accounts.
Of course the culprit didn't count on these young women being next to each other when the first call came in.
"Yeah, there's probably more people that they called that weren't together, don't know that they're calling several people, so that's why we just wanted to get it out there," said Messer.
In fact they say the scammer called Messer's sister as well. All 3 women have taken their number off Facebook and they plan tighten privacy setting as well.

1,500 signatures on petition supporting NHS services in Bromley
Updated 3:46pm Thursday 31st January 2013 in News By Heloise Wood, reporter
A PETITION of more than 1,500 signatures was presented to Bromley health representatives in support of NHS services.
Fifteen members of national campaigning group 38 Degrees delivered the document to Bromley Clinical Commissioning Board Chair Dr Andrew Parson on January 31, the same day Health Secretary Jeremy Hunt approved trust special administrator Matthew Kershaw's report on South London Healthcare Trust.
Members also had a question and answer session with Dr Parson in Bassetts House, in Broadwater Gardens, Orpington, about commissioning health services in Bromley and specific concerns about private providers taking over NHS contracts.
Andy Urbanczyk, 59, of Thorpe Close, Orpington, said: "It's not just about preserving our health services, it's also about improving them.
"People are worried about private companies getting contracts."
David Mott, 66, of Red Cedars Road, Orpington, said: "We need to make sure there are no conflicts of interest when the contracts are awarded.
"Although there are regulations and policies, companies have a way of getting round these."
Dr Parson said: "If people think they will not have hospital treatment in the future, that's not the case and we need to make that clear.
"However, it's not all about the NHS -for example, people forget Bromley Healthcare itself is actually a social enterprise."
The petition stated: "Please do all you can to stop local health services being broken up or taken over by irresponsible private companies."

We all knew that a long time ago. But we made the enemy work for their money. And yes, we embarrassed them at public meetings.
They won. We knew that they would win. But we made them feel uncomfortable at the pointless public consultation meetings that they were forced to hold.
Lets keep making them work for their money.

Pale clear yellow in color. White head. Good lace.
Reminds me of a dry pilsner. Grassy and bready. Biscuit flavors. Not very hoppy.
Mouthfeel: Clean with a light crispness. Ends clean.
Overall, this was easy to drink, but I would have like a few more hops. Still glad I got to try this one.

Clear, apricot/amber coloration, slim white head.
Aroma: soft and citrus-y, with fruits aplenty.
Let's taste away! Tiny bursts of hoppy bitterness (or bitter hoppiness) pounce the palate, and buzz away, with all those fruity associations taking over and leading the charge. Medium-bodied, robust and emboldened with juicy fruit. Orange and mango. Bitterness never fades completely. Tasty, tasty stuff, downable and refreshing. I like this quite a bit. It would be better in the summer, though. April 5, and we're still not into spring, yet, for real.
I tried this new thing, that all the kids are doing of taking a photo of the menu instead of copying it down. (Once upon a time, there would be slips of paper with descriptions of the newest beer at MTHB floating about, and I would try to take one home for use in my reviews.) I won't, however, Instagram it, Vine it, or post it on Facebook. Just copy it here: "This unique beer has the malt and hops of a Czech-style Pilsner, but was fermented cool with an ale strain. Crisp, clean, bready, hoppy, and lager-like. 5.8% ABV."

The City of Cape Coral is a Gulf Coast town in the sunshine famous for being on water.

With water being such a focal part of the community, Cape Coral is a very popular choice with fishermen and boaters alike. The canals are teeming with fish such as snook and even the most novice of anglers should enjoy some success. With boating such a popular pastime with residents, boat hire is readily available so you can explore the many beautiful islands, restaurants and beaches only accessible from the water. Villa Palmares is situated on one of the many popular
gulf access canals that Cape Coral is famous for and has wonderful waterfront views from the lanai and dock area.
If you can bear to leave your waterfront oasis and explore the surrounding areas, a short distance away are the famous beaches of Fort Myers Beach and the tropical barrier islands of Sanibel and Captiva. These barrier islands are particularly famous the world over for the fine shelling and Nature Reserve of Ding Darling. Also along the shoreline is the state park of Lover's Key, rated in the Top 10 Beaches in the US on the Travel Channel. Cape Coral has both tennis clubs and golf courses within easy reach of the villa, including the championship Royal Tee Golf Course. Nearby Fort Myers and Naples have earned the reputation of having some of the most sought after public and private golf courses in the world. The Cape Coral area is a shoppers' paradise from designer boutiques in Bell Tower to large department stores in Coconut Point Mall. Miromar Outlets with over 140 designer and brand names is a short drive away.
Villa Palmares is a wonderful choice for guests seeking a large luxuriously appointed modern cape coral vacation rental residence offering privacy and a popular south west Cape location.

The Key of Awesome P.O. Box 30921 New York, NY 10011 LYRICS: Aww yeah lay down that sensual massage jam cus its wintertime. Ohh its cold, but I like it You slip you gloves on Slip your gloves on You wrap a scarf around your neck and face Like a sexy Russian peasant if there is such a thing Then you get one of them things that's not a hat or a headband. It's kinda both What the hell do you call that head muff hatband? I don't know but it's sexy as heeeeeell. And I'm willing to bet it was on sale. It's wintertime and the livin' is freezy Women are like dwarves, grumpy and sneezy Angry faces and chilly cheeks Wind blows so hard that your eyeballs leak Well let me tell you bout my particular fetish See I like a girl's nose when it's runny and reddish The colder it is the more I get hot I'll make out with your nose, I don't mind the snot When it's cold as a witches you know what You can call me a squirrel cus I'm bustin' nuts Walkin' out of the Starbucks with a grande tea Puffy coat makes you look like a Manatee You hit a patch of ice trip slip and fall Right now you don't feel too sexy at all But that's where you're wrong girl, you're lookin' fine. Slidin' down the hill on your behind I don't care if your classy I don't mind if you're trashy Just as long as your skin feels dry and ashy I'll take you home and heat you up cus you're my frozen dinner Put your hands in the air for the girls of winter Wintertime girls you know you really rock my world Snug as a bug in a rug Wearin' nothing but gloves and Uggs Wintertime ladies c'mon lets make some frozen babies That don't make no sense. Shut up. Now we're back in the pad with two frozen chicks I put on some jams, a cool wintry mix. There's no need to rush things lets just chill Can I interest you in a vodka Nyquil? I got her in the room; she said "my hands are frozen Can you turn up the heat?" I said nah it's broken. I'll suck your frozen toes while you blow your nose Lets put on more clothes girl I don't need to see those. Most dudes just wanna see your breasts, I wanna turn up the AC and see your breath Some like the lights on and some like it dark I wanna cover you up like Kenny from South Park She said that's cool I understand the rules Let me go slip into something less comfortable. She went out then came back covered head to toe She was moving kinda slow but she was ready to go. We fooled around for a while till we needed some air I uncovered her face and it was covered in hair Wintertime hoes just made me make out with my bro Ewwwwww that was disgusting man EWWW. Yeah that was gross, but like if we're all covered up what's the difference really? That's a good point.
