It was our pleasure helping you find and enjoy yours Mr. Riccio. Till next time, thanks again & always.
Beautiful and peaceful
We stayed for a few nights in May so we could do some hiking in the area. The house is all on one level and quite large, so we were pleasantly surprised at how much room there was to spread out. We used two of the beds and both were very comfortable, as was the living room/sunroom furniture. Almost all rooms have the same stunning view of the mountains - they have really capitalized on the view with all the sliding glass doors, and it is truly impressive! We never got tired of it. By far the most amazing part was just sitting on the patio at any time of day, staring at the mountains and watching the sky change. It was a bit buggy this time of year, but very manageable (and there was a citronella candle on the table, which was nice!) If we had been there longer we would have bought some firewood because there was a cute little portable fire pit on the patio that would have been fun and cozy (but no wood provided). It was also nice to have satellite cable/internet because it did rain for one of the days we were there, so we spent that day reading and watching movies. There is a grocery store about 20-25 min. away (there may be one closer but that was the closest we found) where we stocked up on food, and we loved the convenience of having the fully equipped kitchen. There were some helpful notes left by the owners, who also called to check up on us at one point, which was nice. We liked that the area was so quiet (maybe two cars passed each day and that's about it) so we felt safe having our dog play with us out on the lawn and explore in the woods with us.
Rating Details: I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. I was very happy with the location. The vacation rental was somewhat dirty. The property manager was very helpful. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This house is very sentimental to my family. My paternal grandfather and his siblings were born and raised in this house. (I actually slept in what was my great-uncle's bedroom!) We also were friends of one of the former owners. (The person who moved the house from the main road.) So this was the perfect place to have our family reunion. We felt like we were "home".

|Book release: Finding purpose in life through the Trinity
By Tom Bosse
Christian author and lay minister Tom Bosse is the author of the revelation to Trinity's mystery, "The Unveiling of the Trinity."
The word Trinity generally conjures up the word mystery or a topic with deep theological concerns designated for someone with a Masters of Divinity. However, the word Trinity is not just an arbitrary term devised by Christians, but represents the handiwork of God reaching out to fallen mankind. As the major Christian doctrine, the Trinity not only incorporates the Godhead, but its real meaning expresses life.

The Village Soup website had a story about a new online resource, provided by the UMaine-based Maine Sea Grant, that will help those who own waterfront land understand and manage their risks. Kristen Grant, a southern Maine marine extension associate, said landowners who advised Sea Grant on the project suggested a need for information on coastal environments and related hazards, as well as advice on what they can do to prepare for hazard impacts.

More families to help and fewer donors to give that is how Central Indiana charitable organizations are characterizing the impact of the economic downturn on their efforts.
Wendy Johnson with The Children's Bureau's "Hope For The Holidays" campaign tells FOX 59 their agency is serving 350 families now and are anticipating requests from 200 more before the end of the year.
"Why not instead of buying the trinket to put on a desk that might collect dust . . . why not buy socks, underwear, or pajamas for a child that needs it?" Johnson asked.
On the Children's Bureau website, www.childrensbureau.org/hopefortheholidays, you will find that of the more than 300 families and children who need help only 122 have sponsors.
The United Way of Central Indiana is trying to fulfill more than 30,000 requests for necessities like clothing and Christmas gifts for children who need the help most.
The requests come in from all over the region through the agency's "United Christmas Service" fundraiser.
"This year more than ever we need people willing to help adopt families that are in need," Alan Witchy, Volunteer Center Director for the United Way said.
To sign up to help Central Indiana families who have applied to the United Way log on to www.uwci.org/ucs.

Have you, or a loved one, been diagnosed with panic disorder? Or, perhaps you are experiencing recurring panic attacks and aren't sure what to do next.
Learning what panic disorder is, and what it is not, will help you on your journey to understand the disorder. This understanding is your first step toward recovery or providing support to a loved one.
What is Panic Disorder?
Panic disorder is one of several anxiety-related illnesses classified in the DSM-IV-TR. Other major types of anxiety disorders include:
Generalized Anxiety Disorder
Social Phobia
Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder
Posttraumatic Stress Disorder
Specific Phobia
Statistics and Risks
According to the National Institute of Mental Health, panic disorder affects approximately 6 million American adults over the age of 18 in any given year. This translates to about 2.7 percent of the adult population in the United States. Panic Disorder typically develops in early adulthood, but it may also begin in childhood or later adulthood. Women are twice as likely as men to get the disorder.
Individuals with a first-line biological relative (e.g., mother, father or sibling) with panic disorder are 8 times more likely to develop the condition. If the family history includes first-line relatives who develop the disorder before age 20, the risk is even greater. Studies of identical twins also show a genetic connection as both twins are more likely to develop the disorder.
Symptoms of Panic Disorder
Recurring panic attacks are the hallmark features of panic disorder. Panic attacks are sudden and intense feelings of terror, fear or apprehension, without the presence of actual danger. The symptoms of a panic attack usually happen suddenly, peak within 10 minutes and then subside. However, some attacks may last longer or may occur in succession, making it difficult to determine when one attack ends and another begins.
After having a panic attack, the individual may continue to experience extreme anxiety for several hours. More often than not, the panic episode causes excessive worry about having another attack. It is not unusual for one to become so consumed with worry and fear, that he or she develops behavioral changes in the hopes of avoiding another attack. This may lead to the development of agoraphobia, which complicates recovery and limits one's ability to function in usual daily activities.
Diagnosing Panic Disorder
Diagnosing panic disorder may be somewhat complicated because the symptoms can mimic many physical or other psychological disorders. Before making a diagnosis of panic disorder, other illnesses must be ruled out. It is not uncommon for an individual with panic disorder to undergo extensive medical examination and testing before a diagnosis is made.
If a physical cause for one's symptoms is not found, a referral to a qualified mental health professional may be made. This professional will rule out other psychological causes for the symptoms and base the diagnosis on criteria outlined by the American Psychiatric Association in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-IV-TR).
The American Psychiatric Association suggests a combination of cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) and medication to treat panic disorder. Some studies suggest that other types of psychotherapy may also be beneficial in the treatment of panic disorder. For example, several studies have shown panic-focused psychodynamic psychotherapy is also effective in treating panic disorder. The focus of treatment is to help clients become aware of their unconscious conflicts and fantasies, and to identify defense mechanisms that influence the continuation of symptoms. Psychotherapy is usually performed by an experienced counselor, social worker, psychologist or psychiatrist.
The usual medications to treat panic disorder are antidepressants and anti-anxiety drugs (benzodiazepines). Antidepressants may be prescribed even if the individual does not have clinical depression because many antidepressants also inhibit panic attacks. The most common class of antidepressants used to treat panic disorder is selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs). Medications to treat panic disorder may be prescribed by a psychiatrist or a primary care physician.
The Importance of Getting Help
The symptoms of panic disorder can be frightening and potentially disabling. But, the vast majority of sufferers will find significant relief with treatment. The sooner treatment begins after the onset of panic disorder, the more quickly symptom reduction or elimination will be realized. However, even those with long-term symptoms will generally experience improvement with treatment, and most will regain the freedom to resume many of the activities they once enjoyed.

July 11, 2014
This week, I had the opportunity to sit down with the 2014-2015 executive teams of the Students' Union and Graduate Students' Association. At each meeting, I was pleased to meet both the newly elected members as well as welcome former members back in their new roles. In both cases, we launched productive discussion of our priorities for the coming year and I look forward to meeting again over the course of the next 12 months.
July 2, 2014
I want to begin this weekly bulletin with a sincere note of appreciation. June 30 marks the last day for our colleagues who decided to participate in the voluntary severance program last fall. On behalf of the entire University of Alberta community, I would like to thank them for their years of service and the major contributions they have made to campus life, our students' experience, the effective administration of the university and the advancement of knowledge.
June 20, 2014
In this week's bulletin, I'd like to focus on a number of key approvals that occurred at today's Board of Governors' meeting. As you know, on May 22, Vice-president (Facilities and Operations) Don Hickey informed the community that a proposal for the establishment of a land trust at the University of Alberta would be taken to this month's meeting. The proposal is one of several ideas that we are pursuing to open new revenue streams that can support the core teaching and research mission of the university over the long term. I am pleased to report that the motion to establish a land trust was unanimously approved today by the board.
June 13, 2014
Convocation ceremonies continued this week, the last one concluding on Wednesday afternoon. Each spring and fall, convocation gives us an occasion to reflect on the achievements of our new graduates (this spring 6,738 in total) and the role that all University of Alberta faculty and staff play in ensuring their academic success. For those in attendance, the experience is an emotional affirmation that our efforts to create meaningful learning experiences for students, and to facilitate and support their personal and professional growth through a host of co- and extracurricular opportunities, do have a tangible impact on many students' lives. I send all of the Class of 2014 our congratulations and best wishes. (Visit ualberta.ca for stories and pictures).
June 5, 2014
Much of this week and next is devoted to Spring Convocation 2014. This year, there are 13 ceremonies in all, including one devoted to graduates of Faculty of Extension certificate and citation programs. Most days, I attend two ceremonies, morning and afternoon, and with Chancellor Ralph Young also host a special breakfast and lunch for each ceremony's honorary degree recipient. A great deal of effort goes into planning and executing convocation each year, and I'd like to thank the staff in our Convocation and Ceremonies Office for their hard work, care, and attention to detail. Each ceremony is meaningful and memorable for each graduate and his or her family. Thank you!

I spent much of my week in Toronto and Ottawa. In Toronto, we held an University of Alberta alumni event on Tuesday evening at the Royal Ontario Museum. About 100 people gathered to hear David Percy former dean of law and Borden Ladner Gervais Chair of Energy Law and Policy speak about water management in energy production. My thanks to David for his presentation. It was clearly a topic of interest for our Toronto alumni.
May 26, 2014
One of the highlights of this week was a meeting that University of Calgary President Elizabeth Cannon, University of Lethbridge President Mike Mahon, and I had with Premier Dave Hancock on Wednesday afternoon. The focus on our conversation was the critical need within Alberta to expand graduate education opportunities, by increasing our institutions' capacity to attract the best candidates and enabling them to grow and succeed on our campuses.
May 16, 2014
The first major item on my calendar for this week was hosting the Quaecumque Vera Honour Society (QVHS) Luncheon on Monday. This annual stewardship event brings together University of Alberta donors who have made significant planned gifts, or bequests, to the university. While we most often know in advance about these gifts, sometimes estate gifts come as surprise to us. I was able to announce one such example at the event.
May 9, 2014
For me, this week has been one of reflection. Throughout the week, I have met with the members of the executive team for their annual performance reviews and have been busy preparing my own annual performance report to the Board of Governors. I expect that many of you have also recently been through this process, and I hope that you, like me, find the process to be a beneficial one.
May 2, 2014
I have a few items of note to share with you this week. As students were wrapping up final exams, the Alberta Council of Presidents and Board Chairs convened in Calgary on Wednesday, April 30, for its quarterly meeting. Vice-President (Finance and Administration) Phyllis Clark and Board of Governors chair Doug Goss attended on behalf of the University of Alberta.

It's a convenient misconception about Beduins, that they are nomads. Unlike Gypsies, Beduins don't move around aimlessly, but move back and forth from several grazing territories for their livestock. Modern society has no place for such practices.
"Them" and "Us"
My parents live in a small suburb of Be'er Sheva, in the south of Israel, called Omer. Ever since I can remember, this tiny town has been third place in the list of "quality of life", surveyed every year. We've got a country club, 12 years of in-town education, a movie theatre and tons of trees. Oh yeah… We also have a small, impoverished Beduin tribe, living a few miles away.
The Tarabin tribe, used to live right outside my window. Their donkeys would graze on my hedge, their herd of sheep would pass by my bus stop every morning, their camels would sit on our round-abouts, with the ridicules smiles that camels have. I still hear the Muezzin 5 times a day, echo on the wind.
Lest I'd be suspected of one-sidedness, I'll mention here that they would steel our cars very often and there were a few break ins, into houses. They'd also be a good source to get your hash, if that would be your recreational activity of choice. This is what impoverished societies do here. But then again, these neighbors were never invited to my house for a cup of coffee and their kids never went to school with me. Quite frankly, "they" scared the shit out of me and I never got to know them.
Omer, municipally, is a bit less than 5000 acres. When I was in Junior High, about 10 years ago, we moved to "the new neighborhood". In order to build a new neighborhood, Omer commenced negotiation, to re-accommodate the Beduins, in its open teritories, a few miles further away. I wish I could tell you more about that, but I just wasn't aware enough at the time.
The Greenest Community in Israel
Yesterday I stumbled upon the Ha'aretz article, letting me know, Im about to become part of "greenest community in Israel":
"Two months ago the local council in Omer, a relatively wealthy community east of Be'er Sheva, undertook a monumental project which will eventually surround the community with forests, making it the greenest community in Israel. Through the project, however, the local authorities also hope to discourage the incursion of Bedouin in the area who have been settling on open land in the town."
I admit I never bothered to look up the word "incursion", but in this context it seemed suspicious enough to do so:
And ironically enough, this is what the thesaurus had to say about that:
Sure there was always petty crime, but never an incursion! (WTF!?)
The cynicism doesn't end there, as the article goes on to lay out Omer's plans to keep the local grazers out:
"Omer Local Council chairman Pini Badash points to three primary goals in planting the ring of forest: To assert control over the land within Omer's municipal boundaries, to transform Omer into the greenest place in Israel, and to attract tourism. The plan calls for the construction of a hotel and golf course in Omer."
And the Beduins? Like Beduins:
"[Pini Badash] can do what he wants. We will come back here in any event, but then it will be much nicer with the trees."

Title 3
EOUSA Resource Manual
> 109.
Returning Deficient Claim Referral Packages
If the CCLR or accompanying claim referral package is deficient and the deficiency cannot be expeditiously resolved with a minimum of effort, a deficiency or declination letter shall be immediately prepared and used to return the claim to the agency. This letter will inform the client agency of the specific reason(s) why the claim is considered deficient and that the United States Attorney presently declines to litigate and enforce collection of the claim.
A claim may be considered deficient for one or more of the following reasons: referral is made beyond statute of limitations date (4 C.F.R. § 105.1(a)); debtor does not reside in the district; CCLR is not provided (4 C.F.R. § 105.2(1)); debtor's current address is not provided (4 C.F.R. § 105.2(a)(2)); current credit data is not provided (4 C.F.R. § 105.2(a)(3)); credit data provided does not indicate that there is a prospect of effecting enforced collection from the debtor (4 C.F.R. § 105.2(a)(3)); referral is not accompanied by summary and supporting documentation of actions taken by agency to collect or compromise a claim (4 C.F.R. § 105.2(a)(1)); supporting documentation is deficient; principal amount of claim is less the minimum referral amount as set forth in the Federal Claims Collection Standards and without other merit (4 C.F.R. § 105.4); claim lacks litigative merit; and cost to be incurred through litigation substantially exceeds the amount of debt.
Suit shall not be filed on any claim which is referred after the applicable statute of limitations period has expired. Such claims shall be immediately declined and returned to the agency. Agencies are required to refer claims to the Department of Justice as early as possible, consistent with aggressive agency collection action and should be well within the period for bringing a timely suit against the debtor. 4 C.F.R. § 105.1(a).

Braindump Brings Ideas to Computer
KDE developer Cyrille Berger now provides his Braindump whiteboard program in its first public release. The GPL software is based on KOffice technology.
Braindump should help users put their ideas into digital format. This includes numerous whiteboards that the user can organize and categorize, write and draw on, and include graphics in. Concurrent with the release of Braindump 0.8.0, Berger issued a video showing the program in action.
Braindump currently works together with KOffice 2.1.x, with the intention of moving on to version 2.2. Thanks to this foundation, the application comes out with only about 8,000 lines of code. Future features should include search and replace, tagging for collaborative work and auto-growing text fields.
Braindump 0.8.0 is under GPLv2 licensing and is available for download as a source code tarball from Berger's blog page.

Since 2001, she has traveled and lectured as an appointed speaker on Marc Chagall for the North Carolina Humanities Council Forum.

If you love Adele, you only have a few more days to see and hear her on YouTube.
The site is starting a music subscription service. Several artists, including Adele and the Arctic Monkeys, don't like the new financial contract terms. So they're not signing on unless they get a better deal. As a result, YouTube will begin blocking their music videos. However, YouTube says record labels representing 95 percent of the music industry have agreed to the new terms.
New York Post music critic Hardeep Phull says Adele and the other holdouts likely will be the losers in this fight. He says those artists will eventually buckle.
Music subscription services are a fast-growing market. Last week, Amazon launched its own service. Last month, Apple bought Beats Music.
With YouTube, this is how it will work: if you're willing to pay a monthly fee, you'll be able to watch videos or listen to music without advertisements on any of your devices.
But Phull is skeptical that consumers will be willing to pay to listen to music on YouTube.
YouTube says it will begin offering its subscription service to users sometime this summer.

Pre-Optometry at Augustana
More Information
About the program
The United States currently has nearly 20 schools of optometry, and admission to each requires at least three years of undergraduate study. Some of these schools show preference for applicants with a bachelor of arts degree. Augustana's pre-optometry program is designed to provide a strong foundation in the sciences as well as preparation for optometry school and the Optometry Admission Test (OAT).
• Augustana's pre-optometry students select a major and take coursework — in biology, chemistry, physics, psychology and mathematics — that satisfies requirements to most optometry schools. While choice of major is open, approximately 80 percent of pre-optometry students choose a major in the biological sciences.
• The 114,000-square-foot Hanson Hall of Science houses the pre-health programs and the departments of biology, chemistry and physics, promoting cross-disciplinary study and research among students and faculty. Special facilities include high-tech individual labs for anatomy and physiology, cell biology, genetics and human cadaver dissection, among others. Very few undergraduate students throughout the country have the opportunity to work in a human cadaver lab.
• Class sizes are small, with highest numbers around 60 students, and no classes are taught by teaching assistants. Professors teach both the lecture and lab portions of their classes, ensuring continuity and connection between theory and practice.
• Augustana ranks among the top 60 U.S. liberal arts colleges in the sciences, based on the number of graduates earning Ph.D.s.
Clinical experience
• Optometry schools generally want applicants to have an understanding of the field developed through clinical observations. Based within a strong liberal arts background that emphasizes experiential learning for all fields, Augustana's pre-health sciences are especially focused on helping students learn techniques and develop their skills through clinical experience.
Optometry school
• Augustana's optometry school placement rates are excellent: 82% over the past five years. Once in optometry school, our graduates find they have been prepared extremely well for their professional training in the field.
• Augustana College has an early acceptance agreement with Illinois College of Optometry (ICO) in Chicago, the oldest and largest optometry school in the country. Through this program, students may be accepted into ICO at the end of their first year at Augustana, and if they maintain a minimum grade-point average and score at the national average or above on the OAT, they may transfer to ICO after three years of undergraduate study. After their first year at ICO, they return to Augustana to receive their bachelor of arts degree, followed by finishing three more years at ICO for the doctor of optometry degree.

New Take On Importance of Being Earnest, Starring Tyne Daly, Begins at Williamstown June 26
By Adam Hetrick
The Williamstown Theatre Festival season launches June 26 with a revival of Oscar Wilde's The Importance of Being Earnest, starring Tony Award winner Tyne Daly, most recently seen on Broadway in the acclaimed revival of Master Class, as Lady Bracknell.
Tony Award winner David Hyde Pierce directs the new vision for Earnest that takes a page from Damon Runyon's Prohibition-era New York, with wise guys, dolls and a Bracknell who is part "Ma Barker and Don Corleone."
The Importance of Being Earnest will continue through July 14.
Here's how Williamstown characterizes the new production: "What if a family of Guys and Dolls-style gangsters moved to 'Downton Abbey'-style London in order to escape certain, shall we say, entanglements? What if two of these wise guys fell hard for two tough dolls? And what if the formidable dame who runs the aforementioned criminal family developed an appetite for cucumber sandwiches?"
Read Playbill's feature with Pierce here.
Joining Daly (Master Class, Rabbit Hole, Gypsy) are Marylouise Burke (Fuddy Meers) as Miss Prism, Louis Cancelmi (Blasted) as Algernon Moncrieff, Helen Rita Cespedes as Cecily Cardew, Sean Cullen (South Pacific) as Lane, Glenn Fitzgerald ("The Sixth Sense") as Jack Worthing, Paul Anthony McGrane as Merriman, Amy Spanger (Elf, Rock of Ages) as Gwendolyn Fairfax, Henry Stram (R Shomon) as Chasuble, with Charlotte Bydwell, Julian Cihi, Alexander Seife and Ariana Seigel.
The designers for Earnest include Allen Moyer (scenic design), Ben Stanton (lighting design), Michael Krass (costume design) and Jill BC Du Boff (sound design).
The Williamstown season will also include Far From Heaven, The Blue Deep, A Month in the Country and more.

This route is located shortly after you crest the hill on the right. You'll see Goldberry Lane on Ered Lithui on the left at the top of the hill. Quickbeam is on the right, just before you crest the hill. There's a large boulder (rock fin) in the middle at the crest to confuse you a bit. Use your alpine route finding skills :-) I used John Pages green book ("Recommened Climbs...") for the approach.
4 bolts, the 4th is difficult to see until you move past the 3rd. It's a ways from the 4th bolt to the top but there's a good webbing sling (not a cord sling, too thick) around a horn about 10 feet from the top. If I would have brought gear, I believe I could have gotten in a tcu or 1/2 tech friend in between 4th bolt and sling.

CATEGORIES MoviesBradley Cooper and Zach Galifianakis almost didn't have a "Hangover."
A fascinating oral history of the hugely successful movie series provides a glimpse at what the film could've been with different casting choices.
Ed Helms was the first actor cast, as Stu the dentist. For the other roles, producers approached Paul Rudd and Jack Black -- but both passed.
"When we were writing, we did have [other actors] in mind," said producer and director Todd Phillips. "Quite honestly, we were writing the brother-in-law as a younger brother they had to take along with them -- like a Jonah Hill character instead of Zach [Galifianakis]."
Jake Gyllenhaal was also considered, and then the writers decided to tweak the role into the older, awkward misfit Alan. Thomas Haden Church's name was floated before the producers auditioned Galifianakis.
Meanwhile, Cooper waited months to hear back from Phillips about whether he got the part of Phil. "I'm doing a play in Williamstown [Mass.], trying to figure out what the f--- I'm going to do with my life," he said. "I get a text [from Phillips]: 'Are we going to f--ing do this?' I was like: 'I haven't heard from you in f---ing four months! Are you serious?'"
Another key role that could've been very, very different is stripper Jade, who was played by Heather Graham. Phillips met with Lindsay Lohan, and cleared up the misconception that she passed on a movie that turned out to be a huge success.
"Honestly, it felt like she ended up being too young for what we were talking about," he explained. "People love to attack her for everything, like: 'Ha, she didn't see how great 'The Hangover' was going to be. She turned it down.' She didn't turn it down. She loved the script, actually. It really was an age thing."
LiLo in a movie called "The Hangover" -- oh, the lost irony!
The third chapter in the "Hangover" series hits theaters May 24.

"Hello! This picture was taken at our Sprouts graduation day for our students who are going to kindergarten in the fall.

This is better than the Greek salad in my favorite Greek restaurant. It is wonderful and the Greek black olives are perfect with it. It is a whole meal for me.
Reviewed Jul. 11, 2012
Good! I used basil instead of cilantro (my cilantro hadn't come up yet in our garden!). Also added some grilled salmon to make it a meal! Added some red onion & carrots to it as well.
Reviewed Jul. 8, 2011
I added salmon I had in the refrigerator as a leftover to this as well as the tomatoes, feta cheese, fresh parsley with the Light Green Goddess Salad Dressing. I didn't have cucumber or Greek olives but the next time I'll make sure I have those also. We enjoyed the salad as a main dish.

4.7/5 rDev +6.1%
I had this beer a couple of years ago at the Autumn Brew Review. I voted it as the best beer there, but hadn't seen it since then. I was happy to see it was released this year in growlers. I cracked it open last night after a long day of homebrewing. Here is my review.
A: Pours jet black w/ some amber hues in the background. The beige head is there initially but dies relatively fast. I guess that is what coconut will do to a beer. Carbonation is moderate. Looks pretty good, but some more head retention would be nice.
S: Wow! The description of this being like a Mounds bar couldn't be more spot on. Lots of coconut quickly followed by chocolate and sweetness. Light roastiness. Smells phenomenal. The aromas are really well balanced. I was afraid that the coconut would overpower everything. Very nice flavors.
T: The flavors in this beer are amazing. A lovely blend of coconut, roasted coffee, dark and milk chocolate are abound. There is some faint caramel and toffee in the middle. The lactose rounds out a very smooth, but not cloying sweetness in the end. This beer is extremely well balanced for what it is trying to be. Really an epic after dinner beer.
M: Medium to heavy bodied. Full mouthfeel. Smooth and creamy. Doesn't finish too sticky. Moderate carbonation.
D: This is an amazing beer. It really is a testament to what flavors you can get in a beer. I felt that it was very well balanced with nothing too overpowering. I can't give it a 5 on drinkability only because I could never see drinking more than one or two of these in a sitting. I will buy it again and again if I can find it. I only wish it came in bottles rather than a whole growler.

Imperial pint on tap @ Town Hall Tap-$6
Served with a thin finger of beige head topping off a dark brown brew. Aroma is first and foremost coconut, followed up with sweet chocolate. Dessert is served. Taste is like the aroma, all I can think of is this is a like a liquefied Mounds bar, with minimal sweetness. Absolutely delicious. Each drink is as exciting as the first. An amazing beer. Carbonation is light which works well for this beer, body is silky but not at all overpowering. This is easily the best milk stout I have had. Well worth the hype. Too busy enjoying this beer to take good notes. This is an easy one to rate-I know I'll be getting at least one of these every time I find it on tap at one of the Town Hall locations.

4.33/5 rDev -2.3%
On tap at the brewpub. Served in a standard shaker pint glass.
Appearance: Color is a dark oily black with a moderate amount of bubbles. About two finger of tan head with decent retention. A decent amount of lacing lingers around the glass.
Smell: A sweet dark roasty aroma. Dark roasted malts with hints of chocolate, coffee, and a huge aroma of coconuts. Also some hints of caramel, toffee, and biscuit. Some brown sugar and a little milk, cream, and nuts. Some very light hints of earthy hops in the background. The coconut and chocolate scent is pretty big. Quite a nice and interesting aroma.
Taste: Just as dark and sweet as it smells. Big taste of coconut that really stands out. Dark malts with a taste of chocolate, coffee, milk, toast, caramel, toffee, and biscuit. A fair amount of brown sugar adds to the sweetness. A little hint of cream and nuts. Hop presence is very subtle. Taste is pretty sweet overall but not enough to be cloying or overly syrupy. Coconut taste is big and good.
Mouthfeel: Medium bodied with a carbonation on the high end of medium. Feels very creamy, silky, and smooth. Sweet and somewhat syrupy but its not overbearing.
Overall: A very good milk/sweet stout. A sweet dessert beer that is big on flavor but manages to keep the sweetness in check. The coconut brings a nice kick.

Pours black with a half-finger tan head. The head recedes into a wispy layer on top leaving decent lacing.
Smells of equal amounts of smooth roasted malts and dark chocolate flavors. Also present are of course coconut aromas that seem closer to coconut milk than normal dried coconut.
Tastes very similar to how it smells. Lightly roasted malt and dark chocolate flavors kick things off. Joining in almost immediately are large coconut flavors that are a bit sweeter than in the aroma. Coconut and dark chocolate flavors carry through to a moderately bitter ending.
Mouthfeel is very good. It's got a smooth thickness with soft carbonation.
Drinkability is great. I finished my glass very quickly and could easily have a few more.
Overall I wasn't expecting to enjoy this beer nearly as much as I did. A very good base stout is key here as is the fact that the coconut influence isn't overpowering. A huge flavor profile in a relatively small ABV that is well worth a shot.

Didn't think I'd ever come across this one. Shared graciously by capra12. From a 64oz growler into a snifter. Reviewed from notes.
Pours pitch black with a .5 finger pink mocha head with low retention. Oily thick legs but very little lace. Average for the style.
Huge notes of lactose, whole milk, and cream. Roasted malt lingers ever-so-slightly in the background. Also hints of coconut and chocolate. Mellow overall.
Opens coconut, chocolate, slightly roasted malt, lactose, coca-cola. Vanilla towards the end with coconut and almond at the end. Very very good.
Light to medium bodied with moderate carbonation. Silky smooth in the mouth and slick and oily going down. Slightly messy finish with a nice, lingering aftertaste. This is spot on for the style and for delivering the mellow, balanced, subtle flavors going on in this beer.
Absolutely wonderful, I could easily take down two full growlers of this for myself. Great balance in the flavor and the mouthfeel is a dream. Wish I could get more of this one and this rates up there with the best in the style.

Poured from a growler into a Bell's tulip. I tried this with some other Chicago BA's.
A very slick dark brown near black liquid with a thin khaki collar.
The nose is awesome! Tons of coconut, chocolate, sweet malts, that's about it. It's a candy bar in a glass!
The first gulp gives me milk chocolate, dark chocolate, malted milk, tons of coconut, coconut milk, coffee, a little sour lactose.
Mouthfeel is slick and medium bodium with medium carbonation
The best coconut beer I've had to date, but the sweetness makes it a little hard to drink a ton of it. Thanks to d0b for the chance!

On-tap at Town Hall Tap. Yup, it sure does taste like a Mounds bar. The coconut character was richer with mild toasted notes over the sweet candy flavors. I don't get much milk stout here. There's a chocolate character in the background and a small but distinct taste of lactose. The body is fairly thick and frankly I had trouble finishing the 20 oz pint. It's a great dessert beer, if you like a good Mounds bar or just like coconut. I would have liked a touch more flavor that wasn't coconut-based. Still, it's easily the best coconut beer I've ever had.

64 oz. growler poured into a snifter.
Appearance - Black with a little transparency at the edges. Small khaki head. Thick collar.
Smell - Lots of coconut. Slight acidic aroma. Chocolate.
Taste - Coconut is less strong but still potent. Coffee roasted malt. Sweet caramel. Chocolate.
Mouthfeel - Medium body. Light for a stout. Medium low carbonation.
Overall - Good, but I'm clearly missing the hype.

Big thanks goes out to caSSino for sharing this one during the One Year Anniversary of My Wreck Tasting and to MBrausen for sending it to him! Served from growler into a Crooked Stave 'Crooked Line' tulip. Poured pitch black with a one finger tan head that subsided to a minimal amount very quickly. Maintained excellent lacing throughout the glass. The aroma was comprised of sweet malt, roasted malt, coconut, and cream. The flavor was of sweet malt, milk, cream, coconut, subtle roasted malt, and bread. It had a light feel on the palate with medium-high carbonation. Overall this was a fairly great brew. As stated in a few other reviews including aasher who was drinking off the same growler, think Mounds. That pretty much nails the aroma almost exactly. The flavor was very nice as well with a very nice sweetness aspect going on. Loads of coconut going on in both areas. Wish it would have been a little thicker on the mouthfeel to take it up another notch. Very well done brew that I would suggest to any craft beer veteran or n00bie alike.

Served in a Hopleaf tulip glass. Thanks to d0b for sharing.
Black with a glint of ruby in the meniscus. Across the surface there was a smooth swath of creamy tan foam. Spotty lace remnants around the edges.
Very rich toasted coconut aroma. Unlike anything i've inhaled in a beer before. Not overly sweet, just full on authentic toasty coconut.
Distinct coconut meat/milk flavor, lightly toasty, backed by some chocolate milk sweetness. Ultra smooth with the consistency of chocolate milk also. More than a pint would be overindulgence, but one is just right. Well put together, and far more than just a novelty. This was exceptional, despite my hatred for grated coconut in foods (a texture-based hate).

Another big thanks to Steasy66, cheers man!
Appearance. Pours a deep, dark brown ...as close to black as brown can be with almost no light ocming through at the edges. Capped with a finger of espresso foam coloured head that doesn't last very long.
Smell. Plenty of sweet coconut, some dark chocolate and light and creamy-sweet coffee, and maybe a little vanilla and toasted wood.
Taste. Whoa, a ton of roasted fresh coconut, a bit of dark chocolateroasted malt, coffee and vanilla, but that fresh toasty coconut almost drown it all out. This is not a bad thing. The more I drink, the more I dig it.
Mouthfeel. This is the highlight for me. Medium body, but with an oily feel that goes well with the toasted coconut. There's a medium amout of ultra-smoooth carbonation. Just awesome stuff.
Overall. Uniques and absolutely delicious. Probably the best feel I've come across, and that coconut, fantastic. Thanks again Ryan!!!

Growler poured into a snifter. Beer poured a dark opaque through with a thin film of tan colored head. Not much head from swirling, and no lacing.
Nose was heavy on toasted coconut, roasted nuts and milk chocolate. Someone suggested Almond Joy and it was a perfect description for the aroma.
Taking a sip, the toasted coconut was dominant, though not too sweet. Some minimal milk chocolate, roasted malt, and light nuttiness struggles to make itself known mid palate, but the coconut really shines through to the finish. Lingering coconut and roasted malt on the finish, really strong flavors here.
Body was light to medium, surprisingly so for a milk stout which I though would be a bit thicker. Some decent carbonation from the growler pour, decent for a porter without being excessively bubbly. Very easy to drink and tasty if you enjoy a nice toasted coconut.

Recently, they have sought to promote the argument that unions lead to higher unemployment. To help push this case they have been circulating a study that examines differences in unionization rates and unemployment among Canadian provinces. [Chris Kromm has more on the funding of the study.] This study purports to find that a 3 percentage point increase in unionization rates leads to a 1 percentage point increase in unemployment. Based on this study, the opponents of the Employee Free Choice Act argue that any resulting increase in unionization will cost millions of jobs.
Of course the immediate response might be to ask, if this study's findings are accurate, why
More substantively, there is a large body of research on this topic. While some of the research does find a correlation between unemployment and unionization rates, much of more recent research finds no link between unemployment and unionization rates.
In 2006, the Organization of Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) did an exhaustive analysis of the research on this topic and concluded that there was no link between unionization rates and unemployment. It is easy to find examples of countries with very high unionization rates and low levels of unemployment. For example
Of course we don't have to go overseas to prove the case that unions don't lead to unemployment. If we go back 40 years, the unionization rate was over 30 percent. Presently, it is just over 12 percent. In the 60s, the unemployment rate fell as low as 3.0 percent and was below 5.0 percent for most of the decade.
It is possible for economists to produce studies that tie unions to unemployment just as industry funded studies have tied the minimum wage to unemployment, even though a large body of academic research shows the opposite. For this reason, the OECD has performed an extremely valuable service with its careful analysis of the data. Until someone can show cause to question this OECD analysis, there is no reason to accept the employer claims that the Employee Free Choice Act will cost jobs.

Gunning for White-Winged Doves, 1961
For millions of Americans, fall means one thing: hunting season. Sure, there are school openings and pumpkins to be carved and, for much of the nation, "leaf-peeping" trips and screens to be swapped out for storm windows and countless other signs, big and small, of the cooling months. But in states from Maine to Texas, Oregon to Florida, the end of summer and the beginning of autumn heralds that time of year when family and friends get together for some quality shooting.
This is how it's been for generations, and the likelihood of it changing anytime soon is effectively nil.
More than fifty years ago, in October 1961, one hunt in particular caught the attention of LIFE magazine, and the weekly sent a photographer and correspondent to Texas' lower Rio Grande Valley to document Texans and others from as far away as New York gunning for the white-winged dove. The resulting feature — marvelously titled, with a wry nod to Shelley, "Hail to Thee, Blithe Spirit: BLAM!" — painted a picture of a pastime that seemed one part death wish and three parts rollicking, 20-gauge fun.
We'll let LIFE set the scene:
There is nothing else in all outdoors quite like this hunt…. [The white-winged dove] is most plentiful in the southern tip of Texas … and for this reason virtually everyone in the Rio grande region able to raise shotgun to shoulder — and many barely able to do even this — take up arms for the three-day season and moves out to put the blast on the gray birds with the blue-ringed eyes.
Correspondent David Nevin, who with photographer Ralph Crane (pictured) survived the hunt, gave this description of the firing line where the shooting was heaviest: "Except for occasional friends who worked together, everyone hunts without pattern. They fire guns in every directions, often over each other's heads. In their excitement, some lunge about frantically, while others plunk away almost casually. Birds fall nearly shredded by shot from as many as four or five guns…. Crane and I went flat several times as gun barrels swung in our direction.
[There are] almost incredibly few mishaps, though as Nevins noted, "Everyone, including us, was stung by spent shot that fell like rain."
Here, LIFE.com offers a gallery of Ralph Crane photos — including many that never ran in LIFE — from that 1961 dove hunt in Texas.

I have been using elements of Chief Mark Emery's series "How to Nail Your First-Due Responsibility" to reinforce the importance of distinguishing between tactical and strategic-level decision-making in the minds of our first-arriving officers.
One of the frequent requests that at this point has remained unanswered is for the development of a checklist to guide their decision-making. I have been somewhat reluctant to provide one because most existing tools tend to either be so generic that they are of little practical value or conversely are so detailed that decision-makers get lost in the weeds of tactical-level concerns.
Chief Mark Emery's articles have been well conceived and at times quite thought provoking. Thank for your fine work.

I've been enjoying reading Mark Emery's multi-part series, "How to Nail Your First-Due Strategic Responsibility" regarding the duties of initial-arriving fire officers
It seems like we, as company officers, are stretched so thin on the fireground that we do botch our arrival reports because we're in a mad dash to get a thousand things done in two minutes – with less staffing. I thank and applaud Chief Emery for the work he is doing for us.

Predictable equals preventable
I am writing to express our office's thanks to Firehouse® and to one of your contributors, Daniel Byrne, for his excellent article "Global Lessons: Bringing Fire Prevention Home" featured on your website (http://www.firehouse.com/article/10863663/global-lessons-bringing-fire-prevention-home). This article, as with Dan's previous submissions, continues to emphasize that the fire service must take responsibility for shifting its collective mindset from suppression to prevention. A firefighter I knew once very perceptively stated that there is no honor in fighting a fire that should have been prevented (through education). Dan's article clearly supports this remark.
Although there will always be a need for fire suppression and rescue, it is consistent fire safety education that will ultimately have the most profound effect in reducing loss of life and property from fire – including the lives of our firefighters.
Admittedly, the fire problem ultimately belongs to the entire community (in fact, it is, as Dan stated, an issue global in scope), and the fire department alone cannot have a long-lasting impact in reducing fires without a buy-in as to public fire safety/prevention education, code enforcement and promotion of home fire sprinklers. However, Dan makes an undeniable point that predictable equals preventable. We cannot keep calling predictable and therefore preventable fires "accidents" as though they were random, unplanned events. In fact, what we call accidents are many times actually bad judgments people make about safety in general.
If we as the fire service are aware of the primary causes of fire within our communities, and do not go far enough with education, we are in part culpable. No, we can't do it alone, but until we back up our efforts to stemming the main cause of fire – human behavior – we will continue to needlessly jeopardize the lives of our firefighters, as well as the public.

Education: A secondary means of egress
You are a firefighter. You train during every shift in the valuable areas of hoseline deployments, VES, RIT/self-rescue, truck company operations and the like. You work to improve your firehouse and the tools you operate with. You are a proactive firefighter who takes pride and ownership in your career. You train with your engine company working on communication, teamwork and learning each other's strengths and weaknesses. You identify weaknesses and train on them. You preplan strategic structures and learn your first-due zone like the back of your hand. You know what needs to be done on a fire scene and you do it. You do it well. You stay busy with proactive tasks and always err on the side of caution. You are aware of the term "tunnel vision" and you consciously avoid it on the fire scene. Sound familiar?

15 Aug Top 8 Casino Poker Tips in 2014casino, online poker, poker, pokies | maynardelinor
Poker is a game of luck, extremely popular in casinos around the world. Furthermore, it is very interactive as it implies a constant surveillance not only of your cards, but also of other players. Achieving the winning hand is the desired goal, and sometimes it requires a lot of energy and self-restrain. This article aims to reveal the best poker tips any enthusiast needs to follow in order to enjoy a successful experience in 2014.
Tip 1: Choose a table that fits your skills and pocket
When you play poker for money, it is highly advisable to be realistic when it comes to your skills. To be more precise, you should not take additional risks like playing against advanced players if you are only at a medium level. Furthermore, the betting sum must not overcome your budget. The best way you can realize if you are taking the right decision when it comes to the funds is to think about how losing would affect your life.
Tip 2: If you are experiencing powerful emotions, it is better not to play
Powerful emotions, whether they are good or bad, will only make you be more predictable. It will be harder to act impartially, and you are prone to take poor decisions. In such situations, it is better to avoid playing.
Tip 3: Do not play if you had too many drinks
Poker is definitely a game that needs to be played completely sober. Alcohol will only make you feel more confident in a hand that is more likely a losing one, thus there are higher chances to fail rather than win.
Tip 4: Never assume that online poker is similar to the casino one
The only similarity between online and casino poker refers to the rules. The atmosphere, decisions and course of the game are completely different. When you play alone in your room you can act however you want if you have a winning or a losing hand. In real life situations, such behavior will give valuable clues to the other players.
Tip 5: Get accustomed to fold more frequently
Poker is all about taking smart and fast decisions according to the cards you have in your hand. This means that a poor hand should not be taken accordingly, and you should do something to fix the issue. Furthermore, if you feel that there is not much to do to become a winner, try to minimize the losses as much as possible.
Tip 6: Analyze the moves of other players
Besides the body language that can give you a hint about how promising or bad the player's hand is, it is also advisable to analyze the way he/she plays it. It is true that such behavior requires extra energy, but it is beneficial on long term as it can help you evolve as a poker player to a more advanced level. Furthermore, it is said that it is more convenient to learn from other peoples' mistakes rather than from your own.
Tip 7: Bluff only when the situation requires
There are many people who bluff only because others do it. However, this is definitely not a recommended behavior. This is an action that needs to be done wisely in order to be effective. Furthermore, it can have a negative impact on your reputation as all players will see you as a competitor who solely relies on bluffing.
Tip 8: Never play to impress
Poker is a game that needs to be played for the pleasure of developing strategies. By no means should you risk your money and reputation simply because you want to impress someone. Play responsibly and have fun for a genuine poker experience.

Valorie Eversole Daily Union Editor
Shelbyville Daily Union
---- — The Shelby County board approved grants and requests that were presented during its regular meeting Wednesday.
CEFS Chief Operations officer Kevin Bushur presented the nearly half-million dollar capital improvement grant that includes funds for three new mini-vans, equipment, and facilities for the six counties involved.
Also approved were the maintenance plan and amendment to the design services for the Shelbyville facility at 1500 W. S. First Street and the marketing plan for CEFS services.
The board approved the implementation of the Jospeh Meyers Delinquent Tax Program to be used by the Shelby County Treasurer's office. Shelby County was only one of a small handful of Illinois counties not using the system. It will aid in collection of scavenger taxes on foreclosed properties.
"The last time, in 2010, we had a list of 23 parcels. Only one sold and six others eventually paid," explained Treasurer Debra Page. "This year there are 43 parcels. The number of forfeits seems to be growing and growing, With this company, everything sells."
Road work requests were presented and approved. Among them were:
- Pipe replacement in Cold Spring Township, 4 miles north of Herrick, at approximately $4,000 to be shared by the township and the county
- Drainage structure replacement in Prairie Township, 3 miles northwest of Stewardson, at approximately $4,500 to be shared by the township and the county
- Pipe culvert replacement in Ash Grove Township, 3.5 miles southeast of Windsor, costs to be shared by the township and the county
- Concrete box in Tower Hill township, 3 miles south of Tower Hill, at approximately $4,000 to be shared by the township and the county
The board approved an agreement for engineering services for work at the railroad crossing approach near Clarksburg on County Highway 7. The agreement is with Henderson & Associates for $25,163.
County engineer Alan Spesard reported that project to replace rural traffic control signs was nearly complete but that additional signs that had to be ordered exceeded the initial grant. He asked to revise the joint agreement with IDOT (Illinois Department of Transportation) to be reimbursed those costs. The board approved the request.
Spesard also reported:
- Repair work on the bridge in Windsor Township has started and should be completed in a few days
- Work on the Neoga Road is nearly complete, awaiting striping and reflectors, but is open
- Work on the Neoga Road bridge will be begin June 30. The road at the bridge will be closed for the construction. Construction costs are estimated at about $751,000.
- Work on the Oklahoma Bridge will begin June 17.
- Underwater inspection of the Findlay Bridge reported no major findings.
- Work on the Shelbyville Township railroad crossing approach started last week
- The Ash Grove bridge is closed and state letting will be held June 14. Work is expected to begin this fall.
Zoning and EMA director Jared Rowcliffe reported that the rural addressing project is ongoing.
"It's slower than anticipated," Rowcliffe said. "Oconee, Herrick, Lakewood, Cowden and Tower Hill are complete. Shelbyville has been slowed down."
Board Chairman Bruce Cannon reported the public building committee is looking into a weatherization grant through DEOC (Development and Economic Opportunity Committee) in the amount of $500,000 for roof and window work on the Courthouse.
No action was taken following the executive session concerning possible litigation.

Affeldt reaches extension with Giants
Left-handed reliever agrees to two-year deal
The Giants and left-handed reliever Jeremy Affeldt agreed to a two-year pact worth $9.5 million, USA Today reported on Wednesday.
The Giants would not confirm the report. A Baseball source said an announcement is expected on Thursday.
According to USA Today, Affeldt will receive $4.5 million in 2010 and '11 with a $5 million option or $500,000 buyout in '12. It replaces Affeldt's original deal, which would have paid the 30-year-old $4 million this season in the second year of a two-year, $8 million deal signed before the '09 season.
Affeldt is coming off an impressive season with the Giants in which he posted a 1.73 ERA in 62 1/3 innings with 55 strikeouts and 35 walks. He also tied for the Major League lead in holds with 33 to match Minnesota's Matt Guerrier.
The eight-year veteran has a career 4.27 ERA in 434 appearances with 482 strikeouts in 626 2/3 innings pitched with the Royals, Rockies, Reds and Giants.

I swore that I would never let becoming a mom turn me into a recluse. But it's so hard to pack up twins and take them out! I'm also breastfeeding them, and I can't do it without a gigantic pillow and it takes a lot to set up. So I sneak out here and there for an hour at a time. I know I could pump, but I'm tired of pumping.
And this one isn't a "never ever" one, but I do find that I've turned into the mom who puts a lot of pictures on Facebook. I'm not posting anecdotes every five minutes, but there are quite a few pictures.
Have a great Sunday, ladies!
beaubecca:I said never ever would i use formula before 6 months unless there was a serious supply issue. Well now I'm considering it when I go back to work because I am having a hard time finding time to pump enough.
ME TOO!!! I'm also considering using it more and more because I would love a little more freedom (not that I need it, I'm just struggling with being the only one that can feed him)
