The Philadelphia Zoo has been granted $6 million from the William Penn Foundation.
America's first zoo says it plans to develop a first-in-the-world animal trail system – including big cat crossing, an overhead passageway allowing the Zoo's big cats to travel and explore far from their usual habitats. This is scheduled to open in spring 2014.
"This new trail system and other improvements will redefine what it means to be a 'world-class' zoo," said Mayor Michael Nutter in a news release. "As the Philadelphia Zoo's national reputation rises, it continues to anchor the historic West Fairmount Park neighborhood and serve the citizens of our city by providing a unique learning experience for youth and adults."
The innovative animal trail initiative offers opportunities for a greater variety in the environments for the zoo's animals – transforming the zoo experience for both animals and guests alike.
The zoo says other initiatives funded by the grant include: Development of a master plan that grows earned revenue capacity to support continued excellence and innovation; creation of a plan to expand, diversity and drive engagement of the Zoo's donor base while also increasing internal capacity to support this growth and transformation; and completion of the fundraising campaign for KidZooU, the Zoo's recently opened $32 million state-of-the-art Hamilton Family Children's Zoo and Faris Family Education Center.
"We are delighted to continue the transformation of Philadelphia Zoo," says Zoo President and CEO Vikram H. Dewan. "This is the most exciting and dynamic time, with as much potential for innovation, accomplishment and impact, as at any time in our recent history. This transformative contribution from the William Penn Foundation supports our vision of offering one-of-kind animal exhibits, strong conservation leadership and outstanding guest experiences making Philadelphia Zoo THE zoo of the future," says Dewan.

Cabin 4016. Plenty of room for 2. Close to fwd elevators. Large balcony with 2 chairs, ottoman and table. Shower and tub. Quiet. Small TV and when a program was shown in letterbox format, the picture was very small. 3 closets, safe, vanity with 2 outlets. We were very...continue
Great room. Spacious and clean. The closet space was great and there were actually enough hangers. The bathtub is a great addition, if for no other reason that having room to move in the shower. The tub did drain really slow, something I heard from a lot of passengers,...continue
Great wrap around deck but there is little to no overhang on the back if it rains, but the side does have overhang. Very quiet. Less closet space than the SA category. Great views and I loved it.

The Karnataka State Women's Development Corporation, which recently introduced schemes for transgender women, is facing glitches in their implementation because most people of the community do not have valid identity and address proof.
Speaking at a convention of women entrepreneurs, corporation chairperson Sarojini Bharadwaj drew attention to the abysmal conditions in which transgender women live and urged the government to build short stay homes for them.
"Many in the community give the same address simply because all of them live together in crammed spaces. Our officers have problem doing address verification," said Ms. Bharadwaj.
The corporation had earlier this year announced that it would provide vocational training for transgender women and sex workers. Ms. Bharadwaj said that the training had taken off in Raichur.
Responding to this, Minister for Energy and Food and Civil Supplies Shobha Karandlaje regretted that there was not even data on the number of transgenders who live in Karnataka.
She said that she had spoken to people of the community and urged them to apply for ration cards and other such valid identity and address proof documents. "Some of them have done it," she said.
A majority of them take to sex work for the lack of a choice, she said, and added that some job opportunities were now opening up for them.
Murugesh R. Nirani, Minister for Large and Medium-scale Industries, invited women entrepreneurs who run small-scale units to participate in the exhibition to be held at the venue of the Global Investors Meet (GIM) on June 7 and 8. "We are already giving small entrepreneurs a concession of 50 per cent in hiring stalls, we will give more incentives if women come forward," he said.

I really enjoy this new beer from a new Nanobrewery from Linglestown Pa. (close to Harrisburg)
The beer has a mild spicey pepper like aroma with some banana and a mild lemon type aroma coming thru. It's a clear golden yellow color as is appropiate for a Belgian Blonde. It has a full white head that has legs and clings to the glass well.
The flavor has a good biscut type malt sweetness at first with some mild banana flavor, followed by a nice clean mild spicy finish. The spicyness balances the sweetness very appropiately. The Rye character comes through more as the beer warms up.
The mouthfeel starts out slightly creamy but the finish is a pleasant crisp and clean dry character.
Overall I really like this beer and am going to make it a regular beer at my house. I've always enjoyed Rye in a beer and Millbock has done a great job making this their first beer. I encourage everyone who likes this style to seek out and try this very rare beer from a new Nanobrewery called Millbock.

A - Just shy of three finger's worth of silky slightly creamy off-white head comprised of small bubbles with a slight audible fizz... Excellent retention ultimately gives way to a full creamy lacing... The color is a slightly pale amber... A mix of moderate paced carbonation streaks along the glass and a couple of stray bubbles within... A good bit of lacing clings to the glass... A very nice looking brew...
S - Light Belgian yeast notes to start... Orange zest... Some pear and apple notes... Subtle golden raisins... Wheat notes as well... The rye is mostly hidden and there is only a very faint spice kick buried deep within...
T - Wheat notes... Belgian yeast... Beet sugars... The rye is a bit more pronounced and appears midway through... Pear... Apple... Perhaps even some bubble gum... Some interesting spice notes as well... Light notes of clove and thyme stick out...
M - Medium bodied... Uber sleek... Very smooth... Silky and luxurious... Lush... Light carbonation... The finish is a bit dry...
D - This is an insanely quaffable Belgian Pale Ale... Honest to the style with some good old Central PA artistry mixed in... I would (and likely will) drink this with regularity... Lots of good things going on in all facets... Lots of character and depth... All at a modest 6.5% BV... My second offering from Millbock and I continue to be impressed...

Pours a cloudy, bright golden color with a nice two finger fluffy white head with pretty good retention.
The scent is of fruit notes, some spice, and notes of yeast.
The taste is of some sweet fruits, some toasted grain, spice, and yeast.
Light body, smooth and kind of crisp, medium to high carbonation.
This was pretty average on all accounts, nothing bad about it but noting of note either.

Thanks to Slatetank for sharing this growler with me. I got to have this brew before at a tasting, care of Mr. de Bock himself so I am very appreciative to have the opportunity to sit down with a glass full to review. Poured into a cervoise, this brew appears a lightly hazed golden orange color. Bubbles very slowly come out of solution and make their way to the surface. A finger worth of creamy white head sits atop this brew. A light swirl revives the cap and produces some spots of lacing effect on the glass.
The aroma of this brew is spicy with belgian yeast character. Clove and banana immediately come to mind along with some subtle fruity character more like pear or apples towards the back. There is a clean spiciness present that is borderline like pepper but not quite. It has a deep herbal hop quality that emerges as the brew warms up along with a light tingle of alcohol.
The taste includes the belgian yeast spiciness right upfront. Clove and a bit of pepper mingle with banana and some other fruits more like apple and pear skin. There is a fairly solid herbal hop inclusion that keeps the spicy quality of the yeast in check. Front to back, this is a very clean and well balanced offering. As it gets warmer, a bit of the rye inclusion is noticed with a bit of toasty grain and extra accent of fruited quality.
It is medium bodied and modestly carbonated. It is a very easy drinking offering with a pleasant balance that is quite enjoyable. These guys are coming right out the gate with a winner in my opinion. Can't wait to see what else comes down the pipeline. Job well done guys! I mean come on, what is not to like about a beer called "dick head" ??

A - Served with a bright, golden body that had two fingers worth of fluffy white head...the head takes awhile to fall and never fades away completely...nice lacing is left behind
S - There is Belgian spices and yeast that fill the nose...spicy rye, black pepper, clove...a clean fruity aroma is detected towards the back end
T - Belgian spices open up on the palate...they are the first thing that jumps out, but they never become too pronounced...black pepper and clove lead the way...the yeast is strong in the middle but there is also a biscuit-like flavor that takes away from the yeast being too strong...there is an underlying fruitiness again...a surprising blast of hops can be picked up right towards the finish making things lighter yet...before the spices come back for the complete finish
M - Medium bodied...spicy yet refreshing
O - This was Millbock's first brew and it's a great way to start...not only do the flavors mesh well together and create a very drinkable beer, but the name is great!

I enjoyed this from the growler chilled in a wheat glass.
The color is lightly hazed golden with visible carbonation and substantial 2 and a half fingers of white cloudy head. The laces stickage is decent. The smell is good, slightly spiced and mildly fruity with a light earthy nose. The feel is decent, moderately high carbonation with a slight caramel tinge and subtle yeast creaminess with a semi-dry spicy phenol in the finsh.
I like the way the rye influences the taste, it adds a nice bready toasted quality and brings out the spice of the abbey yeast nicely. There is a light pepper element in there with the toasted grain and hint of medicinal note in the background with light tea-like astringent and subtle sugary tinge in the middle. The flavor of fruit is there with the caramel and finishes semi-dry. This is a nice and drinkable blonde belgian, pretty quaffable for the style I really enjoyed it.

Georgia hires a former high school coach to do the grunt work.
The interesting part of the job search was the apparent change in direction it took.
… The job has been open since last season. At first, Georgia seemed on the verge of hiring someone from the recruiting media: Analysts such as Jamie Newberg (Scout.com), Chad Simmons (Scout.com), Kipp Adams (ESPN.com) and Jake Rowe (Rivals.com) were among those who applied to UGA, according to records provided by the school.
But athletics director Greg McGarity changed the direction of the search, with head coach Mark Richt's agreement, and a month later Jones was hired.
Anyway, welcome aboard, Daryl Jones. I'm glad to see the position filled.
UPDATE: Note this in passing as a comparison.
Bama Dir of Player Personnel Ed Marynowitz is leaving for NFL job. Very sharp guy & a key in helping Tide build stacked roster.—
Bruce Feldman (@BFeldmanCBS) May 17, 2012
Perhaps the two most underrated aspects of any CF program: the strength coach & in-house recruiting coordinator.—
Bruce Feldman (@BFeldmanCBS) May 17, 2012
Maybe I shouldn't be as interested in the change of direction as I should be in why it took Georgia so long to go in any direction.

Why manufacturing? With a multiplier effect of $1.48 added to the economy for every $1 spent, the highest multiplier of any sector, manufacturing needs the attention of lawmakers and policymakers now. Continue reading

The wait is over for drivers awaiting relief for traffic on 400 and I-85. The long awaited flyover ramps connecting I-85 South to GA 400 north and GA 400 south to I-85 north opened to traffic Monday afternoon. The $21.4 million ramps were financed by GA 400 toll collections and will provide the heavily trafficked corridors with some much needed relief. Over 32,000 vehicles are expected to use the new ramps every day. This project is going to help make an already great place to live and work even greater," says Georgia Governor Nathan Deal. "It is important for government to keep its promises. We kept our promise to end the tolls on Georgia 400 and we still managed to work together to construct this wonderful project and several more on this corridor."The project was constructed as a component of Georgia DOT's Design/Build program in which the two phases of work were combined into a single contract to expedite completion. Over 15,000 cubic yards of concrete were used in the construction.

The Tennessee Highway Patrol confirmed the driver of the truck gave a statement regarding Thursday night's fatal crash on Horace
Dillow Road to the Washington County, TN Sheriff's Office around 8:30 a.m. According to THP, the driver was allowed to leave the Sheriff's Office. However, troopers say charges are pending.
Tennessee Highway Patrol identified Melissa L. Hayes, 40, Erwin, as the woman killed in the two-vehicle wreck in the Telford community of Washington County, Tenn. Law enforcement officials say they are still looking for the driver of the pickup truck.
The Tennessee Highway Patrol tells News Channel 11 that one person is dead following a two vehicle crash at the intersection of Horace Dillow Road and Nofattie Road in Washington County.
THP said the crash occurred just before 7 p.m. on Thursday night.
Troopers at the scene said a woman driving a Chevy Cavalier turned in front of a pick-up truck resulting in a T-bone crash that pinned the car against a tree.
The woman was airlifted by Wings Air Rescue to the Johnson City Medical Center where she later died from her injuries.
The driver of the pick-up truck fled the scene of the crash on foot even though troopers said he was not at fault in the crash. In his haste to get away, the man left behind his dog that had been riding in the bed of the truck at the time of the crash. The dog appeared to be uninjured and was removed by Washington County Animal Control.
THP said the man driving the truck was well known to law enforcement and was believed to be driving on a revoked license.
The Washington County, Tennessee Sheriff's Department is still searching for the driver of the pick-up truck.
The identities of those involved in the crash have not been released and no charges have yet been filed.
The investigation remains ongoing.
Washington County, Tenn. dispatchers tell News Channel 11 one person is entrapped in a vehicle after a wreck near the intersection of Horace Dillow Road and No Fattie Road.
Dispatchers say it is a two-vehicle wreck, but there is no word yet on if there are any injuries.
News Channel 11 has a crew on the way to the scene of the incident.

D40 Crew at Redskins Home Opener tailgate! by Samantha - 12 months ago
"The shirts were crafted for a group of friends who dubs themselves the "D40 Crew" at all Washington Redskins home games. The D40 stands for the area of the parking lot where we have a huge tailgate before each game. We have been tailgating here for years, so I thought it was necessary for us to officially stand out and show our personal Redskins pride and dedication to the team and tailgating! The shot submitted was most of the group at the Redskins 2013 season opener against the Eagles. The photo was taken by the sole Eagles fan of the group. The shirts were a hit! Everyone loved them, and even bought extras for friends who were not able to be there."

3.73/5 rDev -7.9%
Pours a hazy, deep amber with plenty foam that settles to a centimeter of persistent head with some sticky bits of lace left behind. Smell is very complex; tart and sweet charry aromas mingle with vanilla (oak?) and a slight trace of balsamic vinegar. Gets pleasantly tart as it warms up. Sweet and sour finish. Suprisingly more body than I expected. Gets fizzy after a bit and the head falls to a very thin collar. Would like this to be a little drier; it's a little too sweet. Remarkably drinkable considering it's strength.

12 oz. bottle poured into a New Belgium Globe glass.
It pours a kind of murky amber orange with a huge frothy white head. Half the glass filled with a nice foam layer and it doesn't really die down. The nucleation on the bottom of this glass is constantly adding more head to this beer. Peering into the bottom of the glass a tornado of tiny bubbles can be seen. This is one lively beer.
The nose first hits with a nice saison yeast spice punch. Behind that a fairly bright citrus orange and grain is present as well. At the end a pretty distinct ethanol aroma is there as well, it's not harsh like a fusel but present nonetheless.
The taste starts off with some tartness and then transitions into a citrus orange flavors. The middle of the taste it gets a little oily before finishing with some yeast bite and again with the ethanol.
Mouthfeel is medium lights with an insane carbonation level. I think the carb level added to the initial tartness I was picking up. In this style I can tolerate a high carb level so I didn't find it so distracting. Drinkability was ok. I usually find this style very very drinkable on the whole but for some reason I didn't get that with this beer. The ABV level could have been a big factor in that though.

Pours a deep orange with a white head. A rather vigorous pour into a snifter yielded a bit of yeast in the glass that made "legs" down the sides near the bottom. Aroma of grapefruit and alcohol. Full bodied with a spicy mouthfeel from the carbonation, very much like champagne. Sour finish with a touch of alcohol warmth. Nice beer, but you would only need to drink one in an evening.

A: opaque golden amber, thick head that leaves spotty lacing.
S: hints of citrus and light fruits abound, peaches, apricots, spices, and coriander.
T: while the aroma was strong, the taste was very subdued, light in fruit flavors that quickly dissipated, floral finish.
MF/D: highly carbonated that has a crisp finish.

Huge whoosh of CO2 as I pop the cap. Pours into my glass with a big billowing 3 finger white foam cap. Hazy orange brew lingers underneath the seemingly everlasting foam. Aromas start with bold yeast spiciness and loads of peach and tropical citrus. Crisp, earthy malt along with some pepper. Ginger is there and it has a nice overall freshness to the aroma.
First sip brings smooth spicy grains upfront with a melange of fruit flavors especially peach and tropical notes. Earthy accents with a big yeasty undertone. Ginger is quite obvious and I enjoy it. Flows down with a touch of pepper and a sour twang that kind of wraps it all together. Quite spicy overall.
Mouthfeel is medium bodied and smooth with lots of fast moving carbonation. It'd a tad bit over carbonated for me personally, but otherwise it works well and is refreshing. For an amped-up beer in the framework of a saison it ends up tasty and I like the sour twang. Keep the Unplugged's coming Dan!

A- Slightly hazy straw gold with a decent bright white head. The head fades fairly quickly but leaves decent lacing.
S- Interesting smells, dosen't really remind me of other saison's. Nice yeast smell like most saisons's but its just a hint in this one. White grapes stick out.
T- Pretty tart white grape taste, nice balancing sweetness in the finish. The tartness fills the place of the hops quite nicely.
M- Excellent carbonation, almost like champagne at times. Leaves the throat with a fantastic dryness.
D- Such a perfect beer for a warm summer night. My favorite saison ever! Great job NG!

(Served in a tulip glass)
A- The gentle pour produces a big creamy light tan foam with an apricot colored crystal clear body with a sea of micro bubbles. S- The soft lemony note fades to a slight green finish but it is pretty clean over all.
T- This beer has a tart sour beginning with a lemony soft black pepper hint in the finish. There is a lemon hint that lingers after each finish. The tartness grows and a soapy note comes through in the pepper.
M- This beer has a light mouthfeel wit a slight alcohol warmth that comes through as it warms up. D- Some big tartness with light lemon notes and a peppery note but not really any typical saison notes. Nice summery crisp drink with some interesting flavors.

New Glarus- Unplugged Imperial Saison
A- Very cloudy white tinged orange with a thick billowy head. Too foamy and heavy lacing.
S- Sour and tart fruit rinds; orange and lemon with a nice touch of apricot, peach, and pear. Slight spicy peppery aroma too.
T- Sour/ tart fruit. Peaches, apricots, lemon, apple, and pear come through big and bold thick yeasty and spicy pepper, poppy seed, banana, and clove.
M- Thick tangy ripe fruitiness with a sour and slighty dry bitter coating on the tongue.Very tart.
Overall- Although I'm not a Saison fan, this was quite enjoyable. Any more funky and I wouldn't like it.

Looks incredible, like so many New Glarus offerings. The head is quintessentially Belgian: that tight, ultra-creamy, long-lasting look, with tons of lace to boot. Color is a hazy, near-murky apricot/peach.
Nose is vibrant, with ginger and lemon coming to mind quickly and apricot emerging more slowly. Not all that funky, the yeast seems to take a subtle role. The alcohol spikes out too much, even if it is 8.7%; gives a medicinal edge that overshadows the good stuff going on.
There's a puckery fruit thread running through this beer, more spice (ginger) and more fruit in the form of juicy, sweet, just slightly underripe peaches. Bouyant in the mouth, a springy balance of carbonation and creaminess. Nice that the yeast asserts itself throughout the flavor profile. A little tart in the finish, like young white grapes, and the alcohol lingers just a little too long, but I wouldn't call it cloying.
Fruity, yeasty, super-quenching. My only hangup is the too-present alcohol in smell and taste, but it's a minor complaint. There's tons to love about this beer, and it was a super-refreshing late-summer afternoon sipper.

Huge thanks to an overgenerous natasharai who hand delivered this and many others to the last frontier.
Pours a nice almost amber light orange hue with slight haziness and a huge fluffy white cauliflower head that retains extraordinarily well and leaves nice lacing.
Nose is somewhat tart with notes of peach and potpourri, slight green apple and a little hay.
Taste follows with large belgian yeast profile and a fairly profound hoppiness. There is definitely some green apple notes, peach also comes out. A slight tartness is there, but its more of a subtle berlinerweisse-like tartness rather than blatant bugs. Absurdly dry on the finish. Some floral notes in the aftertaste, and the light fruits come out again.
Mouthfeel is nice and bubbly, appropriately carbonated for the style. Viscosity is right around where you'd think it would be for an "imperial saison". Insanely dry finish.
Drinkability is pretty damn good. The abv really doesn't make an appearance, and aside from a little more thickness and a touch more sweetness you wouldn't even know this was imperial.
Overall, a very nice beer. Certainly a unique, yet authentically oriented adaptation of the style. I like where the tartness sits here, and i also love how dry the finish is despite the fact that this one is a bit beefier than your average saison. Would be interesting to see how this one ages, but i can't see it going for much more than a couple of years. Another good one from NG, they continue to appease on a regular basis.
Thanks tash!!!

Translucent apricot-tan colored with a thick, gaseous rise of misty, milky, buttercreme suds with plenty of rise and stick.
Vinous, champagne aroma. Touches of peaches, apples, and kiwi. Funkier as the inhale deepens, with sawdust and wet concrete, then a small garden of pressed floral hoppiness.
Tart and grapey upon entering the mouth. This could readily pass for Champagne. Fruitiness stays in the grape realm throughout, but stretches a couple tendrils towards apple, pear, cherry, and peach. This sour fruit/Champagne persona is the bulk of the beer, but later nuances include driftwood, rosewater, honey, cedar, and ginger. And a small alcoholic smolder at the swallow.
It's tart and heavy, but not at all sticky in the mouth. The persistently active CO2 dissuades that. It's a fantastic base for this beer.
Interesting now, all fruit and champagne. It's just an infant. But I see greatness as this ages and deepens and grows.

Super active pour, I should have known better. I only decanted around half so far, but it's lovely! Huge fluffy white head, with lemon yellow highlights. Dark peach colored liquid, and little geysers of carbonation are being released very rapidly.
Lemon is the first scent I pick up on. Also a light grassy note. I think another B.A. described it as champagne. I agree with that completely. Reminds me a bit of their Berliner Weiss, which I had earlier this evening.
My first drink is pretty tart up front, and very fruity. Pit fruits, peach and nectarine mainly, Although it almost has a plum-like quality about it. I had tried this beer right when it came out, and thought it was just decent. I should never have doubted New Glarus. It's damn tasty. I could have been drinking this for a few months. Damn. Oh well.
Some strong lemon and honey flavor, and a tiny taste of black pepper. Decently bitter, just enough to keep the flavor from tipping.
Medium to full bodied. Maybe just full bodied for the style. Sweet tart finish, and long. A little dry, but I think it could stand to be a little dryer. Small thing though really.
Drinkability level high. Feeling a bit of the alcohol and am about 2/3 into this glass. But this was the right beer for today, and it's definitely a crutch that keeps me up, while I pine for the awesomeness that was the Imperial Weizen. Cheers!

4.28/5 rDev +5.7%
Poured from a 12oz. bottle into an oversized wine glass.
A: Moderate pour yields a 2 finger coarse white head that dissipates rather quickly. Brew itself is a semi-cloudy orange-peach color. Lacing is near non-existent.
S: Farmhouse skunkines, spiciness, booze, and some sort of red fruit that I can only identify as faint cherries.
T: Starts off sharp tartness that dissipates slowly and really lasts through the whole experience. Booze is also apparent throughout and fades a bit, making way for subdued cherries, raspberries, and other red fruitiness. No real "ending" here as the flavors kind of just fade gradually.
M: Light to medium bodied, crisp, highly carbonated and coarse. Finish is very clean and semi-dry with near no aftertaste.
D: Pretty drinkable for a saison and exactly what I'd expect from New Glarus. A little fruit twist and the light mouthfeel makes this very enjoyable. Definitely worth seeking out and trying and in my opinion, yet another winner from the Wisconsin brewery.

12oz bottle, 4pack from whole foods. been looking forward to this one
appearance: poured into my hopleaf tulip...lightly hazy apricot body, huge fluffy white cap with daunting retention. lively carbonation - nice
smell: a big whiff of funky yeast, peppery, moist yellow cake, corriander, apricot and other spiced fruit, lemon zest
taste: this one has some fire in it - a full blast of funk, sour hay, zesty yeast, a touch of lemon zest, honey, apricot, peach, a little touch of tart cherry, apple and pear, spicy white/black pepper. a pretty wild and potent saison - probably go through 24-32 of these like i do with every unplugged release
mouthfeel: thick, sour, funky, potent
drinkability: not high relative to the style - heavy alcohol and nice sourness

Poured from a 12oz bottle into a tulip glass. Thanks to Jay for picking up a four pack of these for me.
A beautiful hazy and glowing burnt orange with slight yellow edges and a big three fingers of white head that slowly slipped down to a dense, but thin layer.
I'm smelling sour apples, champagne, lemon, pears, spicy yeast, a little alcohol, brown spice, apple cider, white grape juice. It's quite delightful! A little more intense than most saisons I've had.
The first gulp gives me tart apple skin, green grapes, spice, tons of yeasty goodness. The tartness is sharpening up as the beer warms with a champagne like dryness.
Mouthfeel is prickly and full.
I really wish I had a whole case of this beer instead of just three more bottles left. I guess another trip to up North is in order!

Got this one from adamharbaugh.
A: Nice golden color with a bit of orange mixed in. It pours a giant head that disappates very quickly and leave a great lace.
S: Lots of banana, cloves and pepper. Nothing too funky, closer to a wit in smell I think.
T: Banana and bubble gum, cloves, and some other citrus. Not too much funk. It is sweet tasting with a slight bit of vineagar and acidity to balance it a bit.
M: Full yet acidic.
D: Pretty drinkable. Could definitely have more than one.
This one surprised me a little. I really enjoy saisons, but this one doesn't seem like a saison to me. I did enjoy this beer, but did not get any funk. It tastes a bit more like a hybrid of a wit and trippel.

First, I make it no secret that I am a huge fan of New Glarus. There have been a few beers I don't care for personally, but they hit the style. Yet others are not within style, but I just love how they taste regardless. If I could describe this beer in three words it would be Wow, Wow, and Wow. It is very tart with a clean sourness that makes this beer incredibly thirst quenching. The color is a rich gold color and fairly clear with just a slight haze. It is highly carbonated and poured a beautiful rich head, and the best part is the head remains throughout the entire pint. The aroma is sweet and fruity and reminds me of lemons and tart peaches, but with not as much hops as I would expect. The malt profile is sweet and grainy. The whole perception is very much like champagne.
The flavor is where this beer really shines. The tart sourness hits you right away and is very pleasant. There is a citrus flavor that melds well with the tart sourness which creates the impression of lemons in the beer. I really really love this one and think it's going to be a huge hit. There is also a very very mild pepper spice the beer, but that comes in the right before the finish, and it's just a flash. It does finish quite dry which adds to the thirst quenching quality of the beer. It also finishes quite clean without any real lingering aftertaste, just a bit of lingering tartness. The alcohol is reported at being about 8.7% but the beer masks it quite well so be careful.

12oz bottle via trade.
Pours a hazy golden color with a massive white head that lasts an eternity.
Aroma is Belgian yeast, apple and light fruit, funk, and pale malt.
Flavor is pale malt and lots of yeasty funk and citrusy tartness. Some apple juice on the finish. Decent but maybe a little strange.
Medium body with high carbonation.
Drinkability is fairly high. Despite being odd, this is refreshing, with ABV well hidden.

12 oz bottle poured into a Fin du Monde glass.
Orangey golden brew with rich foamy head, massive, great retention, lots of lacing, very nice. Aroma is tart fruit, aprocit is evident, not a whole lot on the nose.
Lots of tart tangy peach and apricot on the palate, with a creamy smooth mouthfeel that is very nice. Refreshingly tart yet silky and rich. A subtsantial summery brew, another very interesting and well-made offering from one of teh best breweries in the US.

The first taste is where it's at, apricoty and slightly sour that gets the saliva glands working. Nice cloudy, honey color. Quarter inch layer of foam that stays until the end. Light peachy smell. Great balance of flavors. My favorite New Glarus yet.

Kingston borough commander finally earns his stripes
11:00am Friday 24th January 2014 in News By David Lindsell, Assistant Editor
Kingston's Borough commander Glen Tunstall has officially earned his stripes seven months after his promotion.
His elevation to the top in July despite being a superintendent, only the second highest rank in the Metropolitan Police, was said to have broken a promise by the Met to London councils to give the role sufficient clout.
Kingston police tweeted the news last night saying: "Our congratulations goes to Glenn Tunstall who remains at Kingston after being promoted to Chief Superintendent."
After he was appointed he said: "If there was one borough where I wanted to be borough commander it was Kingston.
"There is so many opportunities working here, and as a sergeant I got to understand the workings of the borough.
"It's a mandatory posting of two years. I have got three-and-a-half years left [before he is allowed to retire after 30 years' service] and I would be happy to stay for the rest of that time."

Is your company's selection process for a service provider exposing you to a higher degree of liability? As an expert witness of risk and liability in exterior maintenance services, I've reviewed hundreds of cases whose outcomes would surprise and challenge how many facility managers and property owners review Request for Proposals (RFPs) and select their service provider (SP).
Winter is fast approaching — is your facility ready? Statistically speaking nearly 80% of all slip and falls are due to snow and ice, and they occur mainly in parking lots and sidewalks. As an expert witness and consultant in the field of risk and liability due to snow and ice, I see incidences that could have been avoided had the facility performed a pre-season property assessment.
Exterior maintenance is an ongoing challenge for all retailers, particularly during the winter months...

QUANTICO -- Setting up for class, Josh Thom's video-communications students at Quantico Middle/High School flip on the lights in their "studio," a workspace crudely fashioned from a former home economics kitchen, a lamp's legs wedged behind an oven handle.
Minutes later, Thom is at the breaker box in the hallway, showing students how to reset the blown fuse.

Archived:Extra "/" character added to Address field of a Data Sync account (Known Issue)
Archived: This article is archived because it is not considered relevant for third-party developers creating commercial solutions today. If you think this article is still relevant, let us know by adding the template {{ReviewForRemovalFromArchive|user=~~~~|write your reason here}}.
The "/" character is added to the Address field of a Data Sync account when creating a sync profile if the value of the field Internet is Data Bearer on S60 3rd Edition and S60 3rd Edition, FP1 devices.
S60 3rd Edition FP1
S60 3rd Edition (initial release)
The host address for sync accounts is usually not the direct Web site link as it is not sufficient. Thus an extra "/" character is added to the "Addr" field. If the address field is https://m.google.com/syncml, the profile will not try to add the extra "/" to the address field.
How to reproduce
- Create a Data Sync account/profile with "Data Bearer" as "Internet".
- Set "Addr" = "www.google.com".
- Save this account/profile.
- View or Edit this account.
Expected outcome: "Addr" should have value "www.google.com".
Actual outcome: The suffix "/" was added by the device to the field "Addr", so that "Addr" has the value "www.google.com/"
No solution for S60 3rd Edition and FP1. This issue is fixed in S60 3rd Edition, FP2 and S60 5th Edition.

I am so excited to blog about this because I am probably the only blogger who has behind the scene shots of the recent Michael Jackson tribute video done by the Cebu inmates! I am quite sure that if you're able to read my blog you know what I am talking about! I mean it has like a gazillion hits on Youtube!
Well now the inmates have gone several levels up by having the choreographer Travis Payne and principal dancers Dreis Reed and Daniel Celebre teaching them and showing them the moves! I was so fortunate to actually see the video before it was released, the best part about it were the cool stories and photos that led to this magnificent historical event.

WASHINGTON (AP) -- The deadly office shooting in California involving a federal immigrations supervisor and a special agent is the latest mark against U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, the agency created after the 2001 terror attacks.
ICE officers and agents have been arrested for crimes, accused of improper relationships with informants, convicted in embezzlement cases, and more.
Insiders say the agency, which operates under the Department of Homeland Security, struggles to overcome internal friction and competing cultures among employees who worked at the different federal agencies that were combined nine years ago to form ICE.
ICE enforces more federal laws than any other law enforcement agency. A former agency leader says the scope of the agency's work and its focus on immigration enforcement may keep it in the spotlight.

National Drinking Water Database
Barium (total) in Michigan
Barium is a mineral that enters drinking water through drilling and mining waste runoff, discharges from chemical industries and erosion of natural deposits. [read more]
Barium is an element that occurs naturally in ore and makes up 0.05 percent of the earth's crust (WHO 2004a). Industrially, barium is used in oil and gas drilling, and by the glass, rubber, photographic and chemical industries. Barium is also used in automotive paints, plastic stabilizers and case hardening steels, in addition to being used to refine sugar and vegetable oil. The manufacture of bricks and tiles, lubricating oils and jet fuel, paints and dyes, and various pesticides also utilizes barium (Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry (ATSDR) 1992b, 2007a).
Short-term exposure to barium-contaminated water can cause gastrointestinal disturbances and muscular weakness, and long-term exposure can cause high blood pressure (ATSDR 2007a; USEPA 2002c). According to the Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry, barium has been shown to primarily affect the cardiovascular system, but evidence also indicates that exposure to barium will also affect the respiratory, gastrointestinal, hematological and musculoskeletal systems. Barium can also cause kidney, liver, and neurological damage and developmental and reproductive effects. Workers exposed to barium compounds exhibited scarring of the lungs (from inhalation of dust), respiratory weakness, paralysis and accumulation of fluid in the trachea. After short-term, high dose oral ingestion, people can develop increased blood pressure, changes in heart rhythms, heart, liver and kidney damage, numbness and tingling in mouth and neck, paralysis, brain congestion and excessive fluid in the brain (ATSDR) 1992b, 2007a).
Laboratory animals exposed to barium compounds develop lung inflammation, hypertension and heart rhythm changes such as rapid heart rate. Inhalation of barium carbonate dust causes reproductive effects in rats, such as abnormal sperm formation, shortened fertility cycles in females, and damage to the ovary and testes (ATSDR 1992b).
Barium and barium compounds have been found in at least 798 of the 1,684 National Priority List sites identified by the Environmental Protection Agency (ATSDR 2007a). Barium water contamination is mostly due to the disposal of drilling wastes, from the smelting of copper, and from the manufacture of motor vehicle parts and accessories (U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) 2002c). In 2004, the U.S. EPA's Toxics Release Inventory (TRI) reported that industrial facilities released 8,939,172 pounds of barium into U.S. air, water, and land during 2002 (USEPA 2004a).

Raymore is one of the fastest growing cities in the state. It can also boast to having the only female police chief in the metro.
Jan Zimmerman has been a commander for at least four different divisions within the Kansas City Police Department. She has been in law enforcement for more than 30 years, though her career began as a nurse.
"Nursing is like police work in the respect that you see people sometimes at their worst, sometimes when the need is the greatest and to be there to help these folks," she said.
Zimmerman was working as a full-time nurse with a part-time job in retail. It was at that part-time job where she met two police officers.
"They were so enthusiastic about their jobs. They were so proud of working for the Kansas City Police Department that both of them said, 'you guys would really enjoy working there and this would be something really good for you,'" she said.
It did sound good - with one exception. Female officers were almost unheard of.
She started as a dispatcher in 1979, quickly learning police work was a man's territory.
"I understand it is true no matter where you go that you have to prove yourself, prove that you can handle yourself and things like that," she said. "But there were just some old school folks who just absolutely were not going to accept you no matter what."
Despite that, Zimmerman earned her peers' respect and that of her superiors. She was promoted to sergeant in 1987, captain in 1994 and major in 2000.
She had come a long way from the beginning, back when there wasn't even a ladies room.
During her tenure, strides were made for future female officers.
"Things are so much better. I mean they truly are so much better for women. When I started, there was no maternity policy, and as soon as you fessed up and told them that you were pregnant, you were off," she said.
Zimmerman beat out 57 other applicants for the job in Raymore. She has a master's degree from Park University and is a graduate of the FBI National Academy.
She is a woman at the top of her game and wants others just starting out to know that they can have it all.
"I've got the kids. I got the grandkids. I've got this wonderful career and this great town. I would tell women to do what you think you need to do," she said. "I would say to anyone watching this that do everything that you want to do because you really can have it all."
Zimmerman joined the Raymore Police Department in April. And, among her many accomplishments, she is also a cancer survivor.

CATEGORIES Horror, Thrillers, Remakes and Sequels, CinematicalWell, hell, that just won't do! Apparently someone at remake factory Platinum Dunes just realized ... Hey, what the hell, nobody's done a Rosemary's Baby remake?!? And to have an old, popular, influential horror movie with NO remake? Like I said, that just won't do.
We don't have any news on directors, writers or actors, but according to Shock, Platinum producers Andrew Form and Brad Fuller are presently scouting screenwriters for the remake. For those keeping score, Platinum Dunes has already remade The Texas Chainsaw Massacre, The Amityville Horror and The Hitcher, plus they've got The Birds, Friday the 13th and A Nightmare on Elm Street in the percolation stage. Dang those guys work hard.
So, since the Dunes boys don't have an adapter yet, allow me to apply for the gig. I've seen all of Platinum's movies AND I own the Rosemary's Baby DVD, so I think I'm more than qualified. Here's my pitch: Jessica Alba and Ryan Reynolds move into a mega-slick new apartment building that's run by computer, only to discover that the old couple who live next-door are actually Satanic Robots from the Future! Oh wait, here's an easier idea: Just take the original screenplay, modernize with bikinis, computers and cell phones, and then make the exact same movie. It'll make the same amount of cash anyway.
Dubbed "the scariest movie I've ever seen because I was pregnant when I saw it" by Scott Weinberg's mom, Rosemary's Baby was based on the Ira Levin novel of the same name, it featured some stellar work from Mia Farrow and Ruth Gordon, and is (easily) one of Roman Polanski's finest achievements. And now a stinkin' remake. Sorry for being so snotty, especially because I actually really LIKE the Plantnum Dunes re-do of Texas Chainsaw, but when I see a production company loading up on remakes and nothing else, I can't help but think "LAZY!!!"

A comprehensive list of recruiting commitments for the Wisconsin Badgers basketball program in the 2012 class.
One day before Wisconsin holds it's basketball media day, the Badgers opened up practice to reporters for the first time. Is Josh Gasser UW's next point guard?
It reportedly took more than 100 stitches to repair the damage to Bruesewitz's lower right leg following his bizarre practice injury. Time to step up, Sam Dekker.
Wisconsin recruits in a fashion unlike most other big-time programs. That's why following Badger recruiting is often an exercise in dealing with bad news.
Sam Dekker will be joining the Badger basketball team next year and he certainly has fans excited after he scored 40 points (including 12 points in the last 44 seconds and the game-winning three) in the Wisconsin state championship game Saturday. Dekker joined Jim Rutledge and Tom Lea on the Badger Hour Monday. Listen to the interview by clicking on the headline above!
Incoming Badger recruit Sam Dekker scored the final 12 points for Sheboygan Lutheran, including a pull-up 3-pointer with 3 seconds left to shock Racine Lutheran for the WIAA Division 5 State Championship. Sheboygan trailed by eight with a minute left, before the 6'8" Dekker took over. You can watch the full replay here. Dekker score 75 points in two games at state.
As the state playoffs get underway, B5Q takes a quick look back on the season that was for three prep hoops stars committed to play for Bo Ryan's Badgers.
The future of the Badger basketball program -- the type of player Bo Ryan has waited 30 years for -- signed on the dotted line Wednesday.
The Wisconsin coaching staff has been busy during the July evaluation period as it tries to secure its next basketball commitment. And it's still early.
After a strong start to the AAU season, Wisconsin's lone verbal commitment for 2012, Sam Dekker of Sheboygan, made a big jump in the updated ESPN recruiting rankings released today. The 6'7" Dekker is now a 4-Star prospect, ranked #45 overall in the country as well as the 8th-best SF in his class (up from 35th). Dekker was recently ranked #82 (Rivals), #79 (Scout) and #67 (247Sports) overall by other major recruiting services. He is recovering from a sprained ankle, but should be back in action at the Bob Gibbons Tournament of Champions this weekend.

Energy efficiency is one of the easier ways to play the energy sector for investors who aren't sure what the future holds, or who may not want to dig deep to understand the ins and outs of biofuels, solar panel efficiency, or geothermal power works. One of the disadvantages of energy investing, compared with other sectors, has always been how intangible it is. You can't go out and inspect an oil field or a coal mine the way you can hold an iPhone in your hand or hang out at a Buffalo Wild Wings. When it comes to energy efficiency, however, you can walk into a Home Depot . In this video, Fool.com contributor Aimee Duffy takes a look at the unique opportunity Home Depot can provide to energy investors.

Start low and take before bed if you are worried about sleepiness. Once you get used to the dose you can take it first thing when you wake up.
Ok so I have been back and forth on prami or caber but I cannot find a source I trust for caber, so I got prami from r*s**rchst*p at .5mg a mL. I've done research and read all threads. One side effect I cannot have is falling asleep while at work. And I can't always take it at same time during day cause I'm on call and I'm not gonna take it before work. I'm assuming one can adjust to sides over time if starting low and gradually increase. So my plan was to run .05mgs for 1st 2 weeks, then adding .05mgs every 10-14 days never going above .3mgs a day. I'll be running tren E 400mgs weekly for 10 weeks. Does this seem like a conservative enough plan to reap benefits of prami while being able to build tolerance to stay awake. Any input would be appreciated. I'm hoping starting as low as .05 and not going above .3 will keep me awake during shifts at work. Some people are prescribed 4.5 mgs a day, that would take me over 2 weeks to reach.

Yes, prami is daily.
I have been using prami at .5 with no issue with sleepiness. Actually I have to take it 2 hours before bed or else I toss and turn all night. If your on call 24hrs then unfortunately you might just have to deal with the sides while working or awake....

start low, if you take to much youll feel sick. Just take it before bed and let the sleepyness take over.
That won't happen. Dose up like heavy suggested
