A sad, sad day
12/06/2012 21:21
On November 29, I realized that peace is further away from us than ever before, but we cannot lose hope.
PA President Mahmoud Abbas at the UN.
Photo: Screenshot Al Jazeera
Israel strongly opposed the move, as circumventing direct negotiations is in effect negating the Oslo Accords. Also, granting the PA access to international bodies may lead to Israel's harassment by false war-crime allegations.
Quite frankly, I didn't feel that the mostly symbolic status would have substantial negative effects. So the resolution was not what saddened me the most that day.
I was hoping that the Palestinian leader would talk of reconciliation and peace. Instead I heard venomous words constructing a twisted and hateful agenda filled with false accusations.
Claiming to be the sole, legitimate representative of the Palestinian people, Abbas preposterously described the latest events as a murderous spree meant to kill the children of Gaza. He did not mention the fact that Israel was defending its civilians against notorious terrorists firing thousands of rockets at Israeli cities and towns.
He even brazenly claimed that Israel carried out this "barbaric and horrific" attack as a means of punishing the Palestinians for their appeal to the United Nations.
Abbas slandered and accused Israel of ethnic cleansing, war crimes, racism, hatred, incitement and aggression, and called for the rescue of the Palestinian "victim" from the demonic Israeli "executioner."
It was mind boggling to hear terms connected with known Palestinian methods, used against the only democracy in the Middle East.
There was nothing in his speech about blowing up buses, bombing coffee shops, or stabbing woman and children in their beds.
Abbas used historical themes, promoting his ongoing narrative that the Jews have no connection to the land. At least he spared us his Holocaust theories.
Abbas ludicrously described the Palestinian struggle as "harmonious" and conforming to international and humanitarian law, and even claimed that high "moral values" were upheld, all despite the "horrors" committed by Israel.
In what I considered to be insinuating that terror is an acceptable tool, Abbas said that Palestinians "cling to the right to defend themselves against aggression and occupation," and then absurdly stated that they will continue their "popular, peaceful resistance."
Peaceful. Yeah right. The audacity! In a few positive remarks, Abbas referenced the two-state solution and claimed that he did not wish to delegitimize Israel. He also expressed a need to "breathe new life into the negotiations," and said he strove "to live in peace and security alongside the State of Israel."
Analysts on Israeli television were debating if he actually uttered the word "Israel."
It was a despicable, deplorable and contemptible speech, and supporting it by a standing ovation and approval of the resolution was shameful and hypocritical.
But this was not what saddened me the most that day.
Answering Abbas, Israel's ambassador to the UN, Ron Prosor, talked about peace, good neighborliness, bonds of cooperation and mutual help. He spoke of our history and dreams for the future.
It was a good speech. So what? Everybody knows that a Jewish state, with Jerusalem as its capital, existed 3,000 years ago. Listening to Abbas, one might think that the Jews came out of nowhere and stole the land from a Palestinian state. The truth is that a Palestinian state never existed.
Prosor talked a lot about "the truth," but the truth doesn't seem to matter anymore – only artificially constructed narratives. And the Palestinian narrative of victimhood is working.
We fight terror just as Great Britain, Germany and France do, but our methods are more focused at minimizing collateral damage. We use the world's highest percentage of precision-guided munitions and achieve the lowest rate of innocent casualties.
I've participated in endless international seminars on urban warfare, analyzing tactics, techniques, procedures and actual missions. Everyone knows how moral the IDF is.
Most people know about the constant import of goods to Gaza, and that Israelis risk their lives to keep the crossings open. Israel also supplies electricity to Gaza from a power plant that is regularly targeted by Gazans.
It is also obvious that with a common border with their brothers in Egypt, Hamas's Gaza cannot be referred to as "under siege," and the existence of the Iranian-supplied rocket stockpile clearly proves this.
Contrary to Abbas's claim to high moral values, Hamas and other terrorists use human shields, deliberately sacrificing civilians. If there aren't enough "victims," they stage and distort incidents or just use photos of other dead children to promote their cause. They are experts at driving the media and the international agenda, as demonstrated at the UN.
It is easy to see who is the aggressor, violating all moral codes and using cowardly terror against civilians, and who is defending and protecting civilians while upholding the highest moral standards and obeying international law and norms.
But who wants to see? If an Israeli child is killed, Palestinians rejoice. If a Palestinian child is harmed, Israelis regard it as a tragedy. Don't forget who danced in the streets on 9/11.
But this is not what saddened me the most that day.
Listening to Abbas, I realized that he is not seeking reconciliation. It seems that he wishes to achieve internationally imposed statehood, as a phase in realizing the ultimate vision of annihilating the Jewish state.
This is not a mere "territorial dispute" and has nothing to do with 1948 or 1967. They have never accepted the fact that Jews live here, and they certainly do not accept the existence of the State of Israel.
So what did sadden me most that day? It was the thought that Palestinian children were listening to the speech and believing every word. It conformed to the horrific incitement they receive at school, glorifying suicide bombers and preaching the destruction of Israel. The Palestinian education system promotes and perpetuates hate and violence, not reconciliation and coexistence.
So what should Israel do now? I believe we should minimize tension and refrain from harsh retaliatory measures. It is important to continue to foster good security cooperation with the PA and support their economic growth. Prosperity is a good motivator for stability.
We should also carefully manage our oversensitive international relations, but consider doing what is right for Israel and not necessarily what is demanded of us.
Is there still a chance for peace? The conclusion should be pessimistic, but I must say yes. Hoping and striving for peace is a moral calling for us. But peace will only be achieved if the Palestinians, as a united entity, accept the course history has taken and relinquish their dream of possessing the entire land. They must renounce terror as a means of promoting their goals, stop the incitement and commence direct negotiations with Israel.
Even if all this does occur, a peace agreement must incorporate robust mechanisms and guarantees for Israel's security, for our very existence is at stake. The last thing we need is another Iranian forward-operating- base at our door step.
On November 29, I realized that peace is further away from us than ever before, but we cannot lose hope. I would say to my Palestinian neighbors: We have both suffered the horrors of war. We should let go of the past, for we have a moral obligation to build a better future.

The Israeli parliament, the Knesset, yesterday voted overwhelmingly to pass two bills designed to ban the Gay Pride March in Jerusalem scheduled for June 21.
Both bills were introduced by ultra-right religious parties. One bill — introduced by a deputy from the right-wing National Religious Party, a Zionist party associated with the Israeli settlers in the Occupied Territories — amends the Basic Law on Jerusalem to "enable the Jerusalem municipal council to ban parades and rallies in town for considerations of disturbance to public order, offending the public's sensitivities or for religious considerations," the Israeli news agency YNet reports. It passed on first reading by 40-23. Jerusalem is currently led by ultra-Orthodox Mayor Uri Lupolyansky.
The second bill, introduced by deputies from Shas — an ultra-conservative party representing hyper-Orthodox Sephardic and Misrahi Jews — "is more comprehensive and calls for a ban on pride parades throughout the country." This bill also passed on first reading by 41-21.
The left-wing Meretz party bloc in the Knesset was the only party group to vigorously oppose both bills. The head of the Meretz Knesset bloc, Zahava Gal-On, said in response to the vote on the two bills: "The government has revealed the extent of its ineptness by allowing the coalition members to vote freely, banning the gay parade in Jerusalem and thereby denying the gay community's freedom of expression."
She went on to add, "A double-sided sword has been turned toward the community. The Knesset is crazy, with a crazy government where the tyranny of the majority is more important than human rights," she added.
An attempt last year to hold a Gay Pride march in Jerusalem provoked two weeks of violent riots by ultra-Orthodox Jews, and the march was banned. Instead, a gay rally was held in a soccer stadium.
The two bills had been denounced by Jerusalem Pride organizers. "The pride parade is an expression of our coming out of the closet. An attempt to prevent it is actually an attempt to shove us back into the closet," Noa Sattath, chairperson of the Jerusalem Open House — an LGBT organization and principal organizer of the Gay Pride march — said this past Sunday.
After the bills' passage yesterday, Sattath told the Jerusalem Post: "This is a dangerous bill, which could damage the bedrock of Israel's democratic principles because of narrow political interests. We will continue to fight it in parliament and through the Gay Pride Parade…I feel that we and democracy in general are being harassed."
Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert — who has a daughter who is openly lesbian — said that he did not believe Jerusalem was the "natural place" for the Gay Pride Parade because of the city's "special sensitivity." But while refusing to support the banning bills, Olmert "also declined to direct the coalition on how to vote on the bill, giving all the coalition members freedom of vote. All of the presidential candidates, who are currently vying for the support of the religious MKs ahead of next week's vote, were absent from the vote due to the sensitivity of the bill," according to the Jerusalem Post.
At the end of May, Jerusalem Police gave conditional approval for a gay pride parade in the city, but said that the event was subject to restrictions based on the situation on the ground.
"It is within the district commander's jurisdiction to determine, according to intelligence … he may have at hand, any restrictions he sees fit [for] the event, its location, and arrangements," Jerusalem District Police Chief Cmdr. Ilan Franco wrote in response to the organizers' request for a permit, according to the website Israeli Insider.
Both the bills passed yesterday require two more votes for final passge, although some Israeli media say there is doubt about the two bills being passed before the scheduled June 21 Pride march in Jerusalem, given the preoccupation of the Knesset with its task of electing a new Israeli president.

Income-Based Repayment and the economics of higher ed
GULC professor Philip Schrag has a forthcoming review of Brian Tamanaha's Failing Law Schools that criticizes Tamanaha for failing to acknowledge that Income-Based Repayment, especially in its new form that will become available to most law students as early as next year, "solves" the problem that law degrees now cost much more than they're worth. (Tamanaha responds here).
In his book Tamanaha presents the case of Sarah, a hypothetical graduate making an entry-level salary of $63,000 (this was NALP's — needless to say quite inflated — "median" salary for the class of 2010). Tamanaha points out that if Sarah has $100,000 in law school debt she will be unable to service that debt via the standard ten-year repayment plan, and she will still struggle to do so under the 25-year extended payment option. "In 2007, however," Schrag announces, "the United States Congress solved Sarah's problem," by creating IBR.
The new version of IBR, Pay As You Earn (PAYE), has been fast-tracked via executive order by President Obama, who is displaying either a touchingly naive belief in the investment value of higher education, or a ruthlessly cynical willingness to exploit that belief. PAYE reduces the loan payments graduates must make from 15% of disposal income (defined as income beyond 150% of the federal poverty line) to 10%, and reduces the period of payment prior to debt forgiveness from 25 to 20 years (it remains 10 years for those who qualify for PSLF by working in the non-profit sector).
Schrag argues this program makes law school eminently affordable for graduates making moderate incomes, without regard to their debt levels, and that thus it undermines the central thesis of Failing Law Schools, which is that law schools are failing because they cost too much.
Indeed from the perspective of universities in general and law schools in particular, IBR appears to be the budgetary equivalent of manna from Heaven. Note that, if she remains eligible for IBR, it makes literally no difference whatsoever how much money Sarah borrows as an undergraduate and while in law school: she will make exactly the same total loan payments over the next two decades in any case.
Let's see how this works. Using this handy calculator (which Schrag warmly recommends to prospective law students), we will assume that Sarah gets a $60,000 entry-level job, and that her income will increase by an average of 3% per year over the next 20 years, i.e., she will be making around $108,000 20 years after graduation. If Sarah incurs $100,000 of total educational debt (this assumes all the debt is IBR eligible, which for people who entered college after 2007 it almost certainly will be), she will initially make loan payments of $360 per month, which will rise to $470 after ten years, and be up to $632 when she is making a six-figure income after 20 years in the program. She will make a total of $116,200 in payments over 20 years — the calculator estimates that this is equivalent to about $65,000 discounted to present value — which all go toward interest. In fact she will not have paid nearly $30,000 in the interest she owed on her loans, meaning that she will have $128,775 in debt (all the money she borrowed and then some) written off when her loan is forgiven. This debt will be treated as income by the IRS, and she will have to pay the tax on it to the extent that her net worth exceeds the forgiven amount (Or something like that. Consult a tax law professor or better yet a real lawyer to get the gritty details).
Note that $100,000 in total educational debt is a far lower figure than will be incurred by people currently applying to law school. I estimated recently that the average educational debt of members of the class of 2016 who graduate from private law schools and incur educational debt will be around $205,000. How much will Sarah pay if she graduates with $205,000 in IBR-eligible debt? The answer is $116,200. Her payments will be exactly the same — but after 20 years the government will write off nearly $400,000 ($396,299.07) in unpaid principal and interest (Again, $200,000+ educational loan balances will be typical for people now entering law school by the time they graduate, and $300,000 balances will be far from rare).

As Moral Monday arrestees, we were offered a deferral agreement by the Wake County Prosecutor's Office. If we agreed to perform 25 hours of community service, all charges associated with our Moral Monday protest would be dismissed. According to the agreement, we were not liable for court costs; nor were we required to admit any guilt in our actions.
We accepted the agreement, complied with the conditions and all charges against us associated with our Moral Monday protest have been dismissed.
By the Equal Protection Clause of the 14th Amendment of the U.S. Constitution, the laws of a state must treat an individual in the same manner as others in similar conditions and circumstances. It is our understanding that the Wake County Prosecutor's Office has offered a quite different deferral agreement to most of the 900-plus Moral Monday arrestees. For them, the deferral agreement requires that they perform 25 hours of community service, make an admission of guilt and pay court costs of nearly $200 apiece. This is not equal treatment under the law, and we call upon the Wake County Prosecutor's Office to offer all Moral Monday arrestees the same deferral agreement offered to us.

I came across this idea in another forum and thought it would be good idea to share it here.
I know there are many Mom's who stay at home, but also run part time business's from home, that non of us know about, but many of us can benefit from, and we can support each other in our endeavours. There are so many people doing independent sales, and so many awesome new companies everywhere that we don't know about.
So come on….share your company here, tell us what you do and for which company?
I am in the process of building a website, called The Special needs child.com.
Here you can get information, tips and techniques for raising, loving and parenting a child with special needs. Special families need to share stories, resources, and information to inspire and motivate each other on this long journey full of ups and downs, raising a child with special needs.
Pop in, have a look around! I would love to hear from you if you have any ideas or would like to contribute to my site.
Who's next?

EYEWITNESS SPORTSSports Recap 2-2-13
from Eyewitness News Online
Two For Two! WVU, MU Both Score Huge Wins
Reported by: Associated Press
Videographer: Courtesy Big 12 Network/AJ Good
February 2, 2013
LUBBOCK, Texas -- Freshman Eron Harris scored 15 of his 18 points in the second half to lead West Virginia over Texas Tech 77-61 on Saturday.
Harris hit 3 of 5 3-pointers in the second half to spark West Virginia after missing all four tries from beyond the arc in the first half.
Aaric Murray added 12 points for the Mountaineers (10-11, 3-5), who were 10 of 18 on 3-point attempts.
West Virginia never trailed but the Red Raiders kept it close briefly in the second half.
Ty Nurse scored 14 points for Texas Tech (9-10, 2-6) and Jaye Crockett added 13.
After outrebounding the Red Raiders 10-2 early in the game, West Virginia finished with 24 to Texas Tech's 22.
Turnovers, especially in the second half, hurt the Red Raiders as the Mountaineers got 27 points off Texas Tech's 22 turnovers.
HUNTINGTON, W.Va. (AP) -- Elijah Pittman led four starters in double figures with 20 points and Nigel Spikes scored 10 of his 11 points in the second half of Marshall's 75-71 win over Central Florida on Saturday.
D.D. Scarver, the only Conference USA player to make at least one 3-pointer in every game, added 16 points for Marshall (10-12, 3-4) and Dennis Tinnon had 13. DeAndre Kane dished out 12 assists for Marshall, which snapped a three-game losing streak.
Spikes, who had just one point in the first half, broke a 55-all tie with four straight free throws with just over 6 minutes remaining. The center sandwiched two layups around two Scarver free throws to put Marshall up for good, 68-64, with 1:16 left to play.
Keith Clanton had 24 points and nine rebounds for UCF (15-6, 5-2) but had six of the Knights' 12 turnovers. UCF had its four-game winning streak snapped.

If travelers do not mind the cold and wish to explore a unique destination on their next getaway, the Falkland Islands off the coast of South America may be a wonderful region to visit on an adventurous trip. Full of wildlife and natural beauty, these islands offer travelers the opportunity to witness some gorgeous landscapes and experience thrilling activities while abroad.
Catching a glimpse of the region's diverse wildlife may be the easiest on the remote New Island, reports Lonely Planet. Travelers have been known to see species such as sea lions, penguins and dolphins along the shoreline, as well as the remnants of shipwrecks and large forested areas.
One of the prettiest man-made landmarks to see while in the region is the Christ Church cathedral. Guests can see the various war memorials along the walls of this facility and admire the design created from brick, stone and colorful paint.
Those who choose to journey to the Falkland Island should be aware that the local government requires all visitors to have travel and medical insurance, reports the British government's website. Taking care of all paperwork before entry to the islands is advisable so as not to encounter any unnecessary complications.

it's made well, did not expect this quality for a $* Dept store is 29.99 I want the best price for my hard earned money. I show it off. I wanted my Ipad 2 protected. This case exceeds my expectations Thank you Overstock!
I would recommend this product to anyone needing protection for their Ipad 2. The cut outs match exactly and I feel that my tablet is protected.
Color was a little off, but quality was good. Product did have unusual smell
Good buy...perfect and cute for all ages cheaper than most department stores
Product is fine,needed cover for my 2 daughters Ipads at school.
I had bought 1 for my daughter I liked it so much so I got another one for my self bc I had ordered another one deferent kind I wasn't happy wit it bc it was loos and bad quality so I got this one ,love it still have it on my iPad !!!!
The silicon I Pad case was inferior to the image. I previously purchased a hard case for my I Pad and thought I was purchasing the same product again.
I was disappointed, but I should have known better. The low price couldn't compare with the price of an actual "Otterbox" which is what I wanted but didn't want to pay that much. Live and learn.

Although the 24- to 28-member Houston Chamber Choir resists categorization, there may be one thing that defines the group: flexibility. Equally comfortable performing Bach's B minor mass with period instruments or singing along with Dave Brubeck and his quartet for an evening of choral jazz, it's no wonder Everett Evans of the Houston Chronicle dubbed the choir "one of the jewels of the city's cultural scene." And together they're a jewel that shares its sparkle with the world. The choir's concerts have spanned from the Palacio de Bellas Artes in Mexico City all the way to Wales while taking special care to promote the music of Texas composers.
Professional photographer Daniel Moreno has had an eye for images since the birth of his first son, which imbued him with the passion to pursue photography as a career. Though he still snaps precious shots of his two children, he now shares his gift with other families, harnessing natural light and the pastoral backgrounds of local parks to frame unposed photos of newborns, babies, and children. He also takes his equipment on the road to capture maternity portraits, quinceañeras, engagements, and graduation sessions for high-school seniors or dogs that have completed clown college.
Owner Valerie Johnson leads a team of dynamic dance and fitness instructors dedicated to keeping bodies energized and elegant with classes ranging from ballet and pointe to hip-hop and tap. In addition to teaching feet the difference between tangos and two-steps, the studio's instructors nurture tuneful talents with music lessons in disciplines including drum, guitar, piano, and voice. The 3,400-square-foot studio also hosts Kindermusik programs, which inspire creativity in toddlers with song, dance, and alphabet recitation set to the overture of Don Giovanni.
At Soundbox Studios, the human body is the preferred artistic medium. Owners and brothers Andrew and Duy Nguyen, along with Calvin Eata, have created an encouraging space that supports the Houston dance community. Skilled instructors oversee hip-hop classes for all levels, teaching basic moves and rhythm patterns that students will later modify and make their own as they progress through the curriculum. The Soundbox also sports their own sharply dressed crop of performance teams, including The Lady Rascals, Riot Squad, and Lunchbox, a preadolescent crew capable of breakdancing their ABCs.

Gov. Rick Scott said Thursday morning that Florida is making preparations as Tropical Storm Isaac's predicted path continues to point toward the state, though it has shifted slightly to the west.
Where it could hit – and if – will become much clearer over the next 24 to 48 hours, a crucial period for the state and organizers of the Republican National Convention.
LINK: Track Isaac on MyFoxHurricane.com
In response to the storm's latest track, Scott said the EOC will go to Level 2 Thursday and talks with RNC officials will increase.
"We're going to be prepared in the event it does hit our state," he said.
Scott said the decision on the RNC will be made by convention organizers. In terms of coordinating possible evacuations and placing emergency personnel for a storm, that's up to state and local governments – and that's his focus.
"The convention has the decision. They have their own constituents. They make their own decisions," Scott said. "State and local will make their own decisions based on our people, our stakeholders … The convention will makes its own decision."
Any possible impact in Tampa would be devastating to the convention, but right now, Tampa Mayor Bob Buckhorn said it's too early to be concerned.
"I'm not particularly worried right now about Isaac," the mayor told Fox 13. "I'm worried about putting on a great event."
Police chief Jane Castor echoed a similar thought.
"The one predictable element of a storm like this is its unpredictability," she said.
Even during an average summer thunderstorm in this area, major roads can flood.
When a tropical storm raked the Tampa Bay area in June, thousands of homes and businesses lost power, tornadoes spun off and streets and bridges were closed as the storm was blamed for seven deaths statewide.
On Thursday morning, all computer models shifted closer together and to the west -- with a track toward Florida and the Tampa Bay area. But city and state officials still caution: Anything can happen.
Officials are closely watching the storm and say they're ready to make any decisions, if needed, about evacuations or cancellations as 70,000 delegates, journalists and protesters descend on the city.
"Public safety will always trump politics," Buckhorn said. "And so my job, and our job, if we move into that mode, is to make sure we get people out of harm's way. I don't care whether they're anarchists or they're delegates."
Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands were first preparing for the storm – centered about 200 miles south-southeast of Puerto Rico. It was moving west at 13 mph with maximum sustained winds of 45 mph, according to MyFoxHurricane.com.
If it misses Florida, it will likely to head out further west into the Gulf.
Scott said if you need assistance with hurricane preparation, head to Floridadisaster.org.

Our community standards are based upon the ideals of the Monarch Creed. The Code of Student Conduct further establishes specific standards for student behavior. In addition, the Honor Code embodies Old Dominion University's standards to guide students as scholars in their academic endeavors.
Academic Integrity Resolution Process
Potential academic integrity violations can be resolved via a voluntary resolution between the student and faculty member or by a formal hearing.Visual Overview of the Academic Integrity Resolution Process
Voluntary Resolution
This option is available if the faculty member chooses to meet with a student, the student acknowledges the violation, and the faculty member is satisfied that the incident can be effectively resolved with a grade sanction. Note: Graduate students, students on conduct probation, and students who have previous violated the Code of Student Conduct regarding academic integrity will not be given the option for a voluntarty resolution.
In such cases, the student accepts responsibility for the violation and agrees to the sanctions. Most students who agree to a voluntary resolution will also be placed on conduct probation for one year from the date of resolution and will be required to meet with an OSCAI staff member to discuss the violation.
Students are highly encouraged to consult with the Office of Student Conduct & Academic Integrity prior to agreeing to a voluntary resolution.
Hearing Resolution
If the faculty member meets with the student, and the student does not accept the proposed resolution, or if the faculty member chooses not to meet with the student, the case will be referred to the Office of Student Conduct & Academic Integrity for a formal hearing. This process, outlined in the Code of Student Conduct, allows an impartial staff member or a board, consisting of faculty and staff, to decide if the student is responsible for the violation and, if so, determine appropriate sanctions.
Academic Dishonesty Notation
Students may petition to have the "Academic Dishonesty" notation removed from their transcripts.
Reporting Process
Should you discover evidence of Academic Dishonesty, you are encouraged to report the incident to the Office of Student Conduct & Academic Integrity.
Resources for Students
Classroom Disruption
Appropriate conduct by students is an absolute requirement in the college and distance education classroom. The university operates with a zero tolerance policy for disruptive behavior.

SUSAN TOBIAS, Pinch of Time
---- — Only 10 more days until the magic of Christmas Eve, followed by the traditions of Christmas Day.
I recently found some photos of Christmas plays and family times in Westville, Trout River and Malone. I remember many happy Christmas days and a few sad ones, prosperous and lean Christmas times, but I can never remember a year when we didn't celebrate Christmas together as a family.
Some memories never fade, such as the years and years I played a Christmas angel at the Methodist Church in Trout River.
No matter how cold or snowy it was, we would have a play or Christmas Eve service at that little country church. As one of the teens, I dressed as an angel quite often — you can stop laughing now. The costume consisted of a white choir robe, fabric-covered cardboard for wings and shiny silver and gold tinsel in our hair for a halo.
It was never easy to talk the boys into being angels. They didn't know the meaning of the word. But Lyle Wilson always gave in and wore the angel garb.
One year we were walking in from the back of the little church, toward the choir chairs, when Lyle's tinsel "halo" slipped down over his eyes, and he couldn't see. He tried to act like nothing had happened, pushed it back up, and the picky tinsel stuck in his nostril, which made him sneeze. When he sneezed, his wings slipped sideways.
His sister, Elaine, and I started to laugh and got a lot of very nasty looks from the elder church members. Can't imagine why they didn't think that was funny.
When I was younger, the church ladies made up little Christmas boxes for the children, about the size of an animal-cracker box, filled with nuts and candy. We also got a small present and an orange, usually from Santa, who would come in at the end of the worship service.
Many times Kenneth Rockhill played Santa. He was tall, slender and often had a thinning, but real, beard. One time he stood up, and the pillow in his red jacket slipped down. I remember saying to a friend, "That isn't Santa. That's Mary's husband. She needs to fatten him up!"
Little did I know that Mary was in the pew behind me. I felt a very sharp poke in my back. When I looked around, her facial expression said it all without one word. Needless to say, I was quiet the rest of the service.
I appreciate larger churches in larger towns, but that small country church will always hold a special place in my heart. Many lifelong friendships were made there. I attended baptisms, weddings, funerals, strawberry socials and spring-cleaning days with my parents. The foundation for the faith I have today was built there, one Sunday School class at a time.
Constructed in the mid-1800s, I believe the church was torn down in the 1960s or '70s. There were no microphones, no overhead projectors for hymns, no softly cushioned seats, no central heat and definitely no air conditioning. The pews, stained glass windows and altar were sold to who knows where. It can all be taken away, but nobody can ever take away the wonderful memories.
To anyone who celebrates Christmas, can I suggest you get out there and sing carols, volunteer to help somebody, smell the balsam boughs of a fresh Christmas tree, or bake an apple pie? If you are alone, visit a nursing home or hospital on Christmas Day, help serve a community meal, or give someone the gift of a smile. Don't let Christmas become so commercialized that you forget the reason for the season is love, through the birth of a Savior to rescue a sinful world. That Savior is Jesus. It's our responsibility to spread the love around. I pray for a blessed and happy Christmas to all.
One last thought, please be kind to each other. The world needs more kindness.

On-tap 9/2/2012 at Pour Farm Tavern in New Bedford, MA, served in a US tumbler pint glass.
A: The beer is a deep gold color, with a short dense off-white head that fades slowly and leaves a thin lace on the glass.
S: The aroma contains fruity citrus, some hops and light caramelized malts.
T: The taste starts out with a nice burst of hops bitterness. Then some citrus and caramel sweetness comes in. The malt character is hearty but not too heavy and provides a good balance. The after-taste is slightly hoppy and slightly sweet.
M: Smooth and very crisp, medium body, medium carbonation, finish is slightly sticky.
O: Tasty, goes down easily, not too filling, mild kick, good representation of style, this is a nice beer to pound down for a long time.

On-tap at Ortino's Northside and served in a pint glass for $5. Whew, if I weren't on a mission to try new beers tonight, I could stick with this for hours. At first I had a little trouble discerning it from Sierra Nevada Pale Ale. But as it warm, a deeper character and complexity came forward. Under the bright, piney and citrusy hops is a more earthy and herbal finish that reminds me of rhubarb. There's a light biscuit note from the malts, but the beer is largely hop-focused with the barley occasionally blending in for interesting candied fruit flavors. Find this beer if you like hops and pale ales.

On-tap at Redbones in Someville, MA.
A- Golden body with a sticky, white head.
S- Lots of grapefruit from hops and other fruity aromas mixed in.
T- Really fresh grapefruit taste over the pale malt body; more herbal/pine hops come in towards the finish and leave a lingering bitterness.
M- Medium body with a good carbonation.
D- Highly drinkable pale ale; perfect by itself or with some good bbq.

On cask at the goat.
Pale yellow, with a nice frothy head.
Light fruit and hops in the nose, nothing overpowering but very pleasant.
mild hops and lightly bitter, cask is pouring a touch cold, letting it warm up brings out more bright hops, and bitterness.
Satisfyingly refreshing, somewhere in bewtween a pale ale and an ipa, pretty darn tasty altogether.

On-tap at Blue Palms Brewhouse - June 14th, 2010 - served in a nonic.
Clear golden liquid with a touch of amber, capped by a solid finger of dense foam. Light sandy lacing uniformly rings the glass.
Passion fruit, sugar-cane, grapefruit, and a hint of tropical fruit in the nose. Aromatics are bursting with fruit-forward hops. Lovely.
Fresh citrusy hops on the palate undergirded by pale malt. Mid-palate, the hops turn herbal and earthy - in the finish, they transform into a vaguely peppery minty accent to a lingering malt note. A fantastic session beer - one of the better APAs I've sampled.
Light-bodied but with a good foundation (I almost used the wine-tasting term, "structure" - but that doesn't really apply here).
Lighter than an IPA but stronger than many APAs - this is chock full of flavor and well worth seeking out.

Drank this at the Lost Abbey barrel tasting last night, one of the few beers that I went back for multiple pours of.
Clear orange with a dense white head with great retention and lacing. A pretty beautiful beer, this is. The nose is quite outstanding. Plenty of delicate floral and citrus hops, a very pure orange character. In many ways, it reminds me of Parking Violation, a very pure expression of citrus hops. Pine and grapefruit are reserved, and the malt character is low. The palate opens with a firm hop character with a lot of flavor and low bitterness. Mostly citrus in character, bursting with ripe oranges. The finish is long and dry, with a mild bitterness. Malt character is pretty non-existent, this is all flavor hops. Thoroughly drinkable, I wish I'd gotten a growler of this.

Poured a orange with good carbonation, even after it had set for a day, it billowed out with a sizeable white head. Nose is very sweet, big hops, citrus, grapefruit but not as much as it was fresh from the tap. Taste is sweet with floral, grapefruit and pine, caramel malt. I thought the hop bitterness picked up in the growler.

Bottle acquired in trade with DarkElf (thanks!).
Poured a medium to dark, cloudy amber color with a larger sized off white head. Aromas of pine with grapefruit. Tastes of pine, citrus, and grapefruit. Nice and hoppy with a nice bitter kick at the end. Some malts lurking in the background.

12 oz. stubby bottle. Pours a darker orangish type color with a nice huge frothy head that pokes out of the top of your glass.
Nice big juicy hop notes, mostly citrusy, but more exactly orange. Nice sweet malty characters big in the nose as well.
Big juicy hops up front, citrusy, faintly piny, sweet, nice malt character to bring a nice balance.
Good carbonation, great head retention and lacing. A great pale ale to be sipped on a hot day, especially for the beer drinker who really likes their hops defined, an all around good beer from pizza port.

Thanks to Boolshot for this bottle.
Pours a golden-orange color with a massive, Belgian like, off-white head. Huge freakin' head for a pale ale. Lots of chunky, sticky lacing. Bunch of floaties. Steady streams of bubbles throughout the glass.
Aroma reminds me of caramel apples, with some citric hops as well. Very interesting smell.
The taste balanced really well between the malts and hops. Caramel and citrus hops with a bit of a yeasty, earthy funk to it. Definately different APA.
Mouthfeel is good with lots of carbonation. Very crisp and clean. Makes me want some pizza. I could easily finish a six-pack of these.

Recieved this in a trade with Bolshoot!
Served a 6oz serving into a snifter (not proper but its all I had)
Apperance: Pours a very deep amber and orange hue. I was not expecting this considering this is a pale ale. The pale white head stacked up roughly a quarter inch high. Nice beading and a fine colar.
Smell: Wow! This isn't an IPA? I'm getting lots of piney hops. Slightly sweet caramel malts are present. Some fruits such as grapefruit and a touch of cirtus lime. Alcohol even shines through just a touch as it warms.
Taste: This IS special in that the only thing thats keeping this from being an IPA is the abv being a touch low. Lots of bitter hops and grapefruit notes as well as a nice malty undertone. The hoppyness of this pale creates a nice bitter film on the tongue.
Mouthfeel: Not medium and not light but somewhere in between. Very light on the swallow and finishes slick.
Drinkability: This is really a ramped up pale and teeters on sessionability. Not bad at all and very satisfying (although im gonna have another beer). I think this would be stupendous on draft with some pizza or fish and chips.

12 ounce bottle; thanks to lou91.
Appearance: Cloudy amber copper beer with a large rocky head and great retention. This one poured a bit headier than I was expecting.
Aroma: I got hit by a hoppy whiff during the pour. The original scents made me think this one was going to be a big hop monster, but after a second and third smell, I started to notice some caramel breadyness. The hops are primarily citrus, but there are grassy hop aromas too.
Taste: The malt overpowered the hops here (but that isn't necessarily a bad thing for a pale). The mouthfeel is nice, the finish is pleasant. This is quite a drinkable beer. The bitterness isn't as strong as I expected from the aroma.
Notes: I may have stored this beer for too long. I kept it in the fridge, but I have had it there for about 2 months. I think it would have been a bit better if it were fresh. Regardless, I enjoyed it and will try it again if I get the chance.

Poured from a bottle into a pint glass.
A - Pours a dirty orange color, very cloudy, with no head to speak of.
S - Hoppy up front, but also a plenty of roasted grain. Burnt honey sweetness comes through as well.
T - Rating within it's style, I don't see how the taste can be any better. Hoppy with a very strong malt profile. Approaching IPA categorization, but not quite there. Strong and very flavorful. Well done.
M - Takes a major ding here for not having much carbonation. It has a medium body, but the lack of bubbles make this seem borderline watery.
D - Good. I'd love to be able to find this in Northern California.
Thanks to westsidethreat for the chance to try this.

Update: aegert on FSB has experimented with the circuit and has found that putting a low value cap like 820pf between pins 1 and 2 of the opamp really improved the pedal. He also suggests that a 500K log pot is much better for the Gain control, so give that a go.
Update 2: daz at FSB has corrected some values from an original pedal he examined. New vero layout below, and it may still be worth adding that 820p cap between opamp pins 1 and 2 to see if there is still an improvement.

Bill Watterson Returns to the Comics Page in 'Pearls Before Swine' by Stephan Pastis
Bill Watterson, the legendary creator of the beloved 'Calvin and Hobbes' comic strip, has returned to the comics pages in Stephan Pastis' 'Pearls Before Swine.'
Bill Watterson, the legendary creator of the beloved 'Calvin and Hobbes' comic strip, has returned to the comics pages in Stephan Pastis' 'Pearls Before Swine.'
Last Friday, the Billy Ireland Cartoon Library and Museum at Ohio State University opened an incredible pair of exhibits featuring the art of Calvin and Hobbes creator Bill Watterson and Cul de Sac creator Richard Thompson, and I don't think I have ever wanted to go see an art exhibit more. Curators Jenny Robb and Caitlin McGurk have assembled an incredible collection of original art from Calvin and Hobbes organized by season, as well as Watterson's actual tools of the trade, featuring hilarious commentary by the man himself. Unfortunately, like many people in this world, I am nowhere near Columbus, Ohio.
The good news, however, is that the filmmakers behind Dear Mr. Watterson, a documentary about Calvin & Hobbes and its impact, were in attendance snapping pictures so that the rest of us could live vicariously through them. Check out a few of our favorites below!
Hosted every year in France, the Angoulême International Comics Festival is the biggest comic con in the world, surprising even San Diego's mighty Comic-Con International by tens of thousands of attendees. But like the San Diego show and its Will Eisner Comic Industry Awards, Angoulême comes with its own venerable awards celebrating sequential art from around the world, the most auspicious of which is the Angoulême Grand Prix, given every year to a living comics creator as a kind of lifetime achievement award. This year's went to Calvin & Hobbes creator Bill Watterson, who's certainly deserving of the honor.
Make your Monday with lots and lots of links.
It's been an odd year for Bill Watterson. The iconic Calvin and Hobbes creator -- whose reclusive nature has informed his legacy almost as much as his brilliant comic strip in recent years -- saw the release last month of a documentary about the cartoonist and his legendary comic strip. Shortly before its release, Watterson engaged in a rare interview as well.
After all of that, it seemed as if the increased attention on the cartoonist would begin to wane again. Instead, it's only going to increase, as its been revealed that actor Leonardo DiCrapio will be producing a biopic of Watterson.
Click through for a Friday full of link goodness.
It's almost silly to say Bill Watterson's Calvin and Hobbes comic strip, which ceased publication -- brace yourself -- nearly 18 years ago, was influential. That's beyond obvious.
But that doesn't mean it isn't enjoyable to hear a slew of actors, cartoonists and other artistic folks talk about the impact the strip had on their lives. Based on the trailer, that seems to be the thrust of director Joel Allen Schroeder's new documentary Dear Mr. Watterson, which comes to theaters next month. Check out the trailer below.
The internet is full of so many random mashups and, frankly, a lot of them aren't very interesting, and many are just forced. But there are some, like the recent effort to remix Peanuts with Morrisey lyrics, that feel appropriate. And now there's Calvin And Dune, a tumblr that presents Calvin and Hobbes strips combined with quotes from Frank Herbert's timeless science fiction saga. It's not an association I'd have immediately made, but it makes a lot of sense, as both have obvious philosophical influences that occasionally overlap. But mostly they're just fun, and you can check out a few of our favorites below.
While the advent of ComiXology has made several classic comics available to read digitally, the migration of comic strips to the digital world has been comparatively slow. That's now changed, as Universal Uclick's GoComics has launched a free app that enables you to read many classic comic strips on your tablet and phone for free, including Peanuts, Doonesbury, Garfield, The Boondocks and more. But the most notable inclusion may be Calvin and Ho

There's no way to describe the UFC on Fox 9 preliminary card as anything other than "decimated". The bulk of the injuries hit this portion of the show, and flyweight Scott Jorgensen has seen his scheduled opponent change 3 different times. All things considered, this is still a good set of fights, the bulk of which are taking place at a weight class no higher than lightweight.
We've got two promotional newcomers, three late notice replacements, and one rematch of a controversial no contest in store for us this evening. The UFC on Fox 9 prelims start right here on Bloody Elbow with a live stream of the opening fight at 4:30 PM ET/1:30 PM PT. All remaining bouts air live on Fox Sports 1 at 5 PM ET/2 PM PT before the big main card at 8 PM ET/5 PM PT.
Court McGee (16-3 MMA, 5-2 UFC) vs. Ryan LaFlare (9-0 MMA, 2-0 UFC) - Welterweights
McGee is an ex-drug addict who turned his life around and memorably won season 11 of The Ultimate Fighter. He was brought back from an elimination loss to Nick Ring to replace the injured Rich Attonito, and he rode his second chance towards a submission win over Kris McCray. After picking up two wins post-TUF, McGee hit a rough patch and lost consecutive fights to Costa Philippou and a rematch to Nick Ring. This prompted a drop to welterweight, where he's scored wins over Josh Neer and Robert Whittaker.
LaFlare is replacing the injured TUF 17 winner Kelvin Gastelum for this one. The Ring of Combat product scored prior UFC wins over Ben Alloway in Sweden and Santiago Ponzinnibio in Brazil, both by unanimous decision. He's used his wrestling and active top game to the fullest extent and has looked the part of a prospect to follow in this stacked division, but this is his 2nd fight in a month, so be wary of whether or not he has the cardio to hold up against McGee.
Danny Castillo (16-5 MMA, 6-2 UFC) vs. Edson Barboza (12-1 MMA, 6-1 UFC) - Lightweights
This might be the most anticipated fight on the prelims not necessarily for guaranteed entertainment, but for the clashing styles of the wrestler Castillo and striker Barboza. Castillo is sort of lost in the shuffle in the Team Alpha Male stable, but he's quietly produced a good record in the UFC. He's 2-0 this year, both by decision, against submission specialist Paul Sass and Tim Means. The last time Castillo fought a striker as talented as Barboza was in the WEC vs. Anthony Pettis, and he lost by head kick KO. Castillo is a very credible wrestler, so we'll see whether or not he'll be able to implement that gameplan against the Brazilian.
Barboza has been a hell of a highlight reel fighter since he debuted in 2010. He has two leg kicks stoppages to his name (vs. Mike Lullo and in his last fight against Rafaello Oliveira), and holds the title of having one of the best KOs in UFC history with his spinning wheel kick stoppage of Terry Etim last year at UFC 142. There is a hiccup in his run in the UFC's 155 lbs division, a shocking 1st round TKO loss to Jamie Varner, who had previously struggled to find any bit of success at lightweight towards the tail end of his WEC and post-WEC career. Barboza hasn't really been tested against a wrestler like Castillo, so a win here would put him in prime position for a step up in competition.
Bobby Green (21-5 MMA, 2-0 UFC) vs. Pat Healy (31-16, 1 NC MMA; 0-2, 1 NC UFC)- Lightweights
Both of Bobby Green's UFC fights have had debated refereeing decisions, but each result has ended in a win for "King". He debuted in February by way of Strikeforce as an underdog against Jacob Volkmann, but proved his mettle in dramatic fashion. After a ridiculously bad stand-up by Kim Winslow in the 2nd round that Green was controlling, he was able to capitalize on a tired Volkmann in the final round, hurting him with ground-and-pound before choking him out in the final minute. Green's 2nd UFC fight against James Krause really straddles the line between a DQ and a TKO win. After twice hitting Krause in the groin area with kicks, Green appeared to do so again, but referee John McCarthy deemed the kick to be placed above the cup, thus legal, and a TKO win for Green to move to 2-0. He's only a month removed from the fight, and is taking this bout against Healy as a replacement fighter for the injured Jamie Varner.
Did you know Pat Healy fought in the UFC way back in 2006? 'Tis true! He was choked out by Anthony Torres on the prelims of a Spike TV card before embarking on a long journey through various promotions before finding a home in Strikeforce. The grizzled vet returned to the Octagon in 2013 against Jim Miller at UFC 159, and while he was able to pull off an upset 3rd round submission win over the top 10 ranked LW, he tested positive for marijuana and had his win flipped to a no contest. Healy additionally lost his FOTN and SOTN bonuses, which totaled $100,000. He returned at UFC 165 following his suspension to take on undefeated Russian prospect Khabib Nurmagomedov and was unable to cope with Nurmagomedov's relentless pace and offense. So as it stands, Healy is entering his 4th UFC fight tonight, and technically he's yet to win in the promotion.
Scott Jorgensen (14-7 MMA, 3-3 UFC) vs. Zach Makovsky (16-4 MMA, 0-0 UFC) - Flyweights
Jorgensen is the latest ex-bantamweight contender to join the ranks of the flyweight division. He apparently made up his mind that he'd drop to 125 lbs even before his recent 4th round submission loss to Urijah Faber in April. Jorgensen once fought for the WEC bantamweight title against Dominick Cruz, losing a one-sided unanimous decision. He's best known for his KO power, wrestling skills, and generally exciting bouts. His chances of contending at bantamweight are clearly over after his 3rd loss in 4 fights, but flyweight provides him a fresh start and perhaps another crack at a Zuffa title.
Makovsky is Jorgensen's 3rd different announced opponent for this card, and stylistically he's definitely different than both Ian McCall and especially John Dodson. "Fun Size" makes his UFC debut having literally just fought three weeks ago in RFA, beating Matt Manzanares for the promotion's inaugural flyweight belt. Previously, Makovsky wreaked havoc in Bellator's bantamweight division, where he won the title against Ed West in 2010 before losing it to Eduardo Dantas last year. These are two ex-Division I NCAA wrestlers with good ground skills (although on the feet it's a clear advantage to Jorgensen), and we should be in for some entertainment out of this one.
Sam Stout (19-9-1 MMA, 8-8 UFC) vs. Cody McKenzie (14-3 MMA, 3-3 UFC) - Lightweights
Can you believe that Sam Stout is 29 years old? This is the 3rd time I've said he's in his 20s just in primers alone and I still can't believe it. Anyway, Stout's career is best described as someone who gets into exciting brawls but does not have the capability otherwise to finish most of his fights and is rarely finished himself. The Canadian was choked out with 13 seconds left in the final round in his last bout against James Krause. Stout's biggest problem in the UFC has been consistency, and he's never won 3 fights in a row. He's alternated wins and losses in his last 5, so based on patterning he's going to win this one, but if he does not then it does not speak well for his future with the UFC.
You're reading that correctly, Cody McKenzie is 3-3 in the UFC. He's best known for his "McKenzietine", which has stopped 11 of 14 opponents he's beaten. McKenzie is often hailed as a "one trick pony" who is otherwise deficient in other areas of his game, but he did manage to show more than just a guillotine choke against Leonard Garcia, besting him on the ground en route to a decision win. So after a 1-2 start to his UFC career, he's won 2 of 3, with the lone loss coming against Chad Mendes in an utterly predictable outcome of 1st round TKO. If he can beat Stout (better yet, show more improvement in his striking), then it'd be the biggest win of his career.
Abel Trujillo (10-5, 1 NC MMA; 1-1, 1 NC UFC) vs. Roger Bowling (11-4, 1 NC MMA; 0-1, 1 NC UFC) - Lightweights
Trujillo drilled Marcus LeVesseur with hard knees to the body in his UFC debut last December, but he was woefully overmatched against Khabib Nurmagomedov at UFC 160, and FightMetric ultimately stopped counting the takedowns after the 500th. His first fight with Roger Bowling at UFC Fight Night 27 in August ended in a no contest after Trujillo was deemed to have illegally kneed Bowling in the face while he was "downed". Dana White seemed to think Bowling was play-acting to get a DQ win and still awarded Trujillo his win bonus. The rematch gives him an opportunity to settle the score once and for all, and hopefully controversy-free.
Bowling is no stranger to rematches. In Strikeforce, he defeated Bobby Voelker by technical decision after Voelker poked him in the eye and was unable to continue. A trilogy ensued, but Voelker knocked him out on both occasions. On the heels of a loss to Tarec Saffiedine, Bowling dropped to lightweight for his UFC debut and was flattened by Anthony Njokuani in April. The Trujillo rematch is a must-win for Bowling, who is staring at the possibility of 4 fights without a win stretching back to his last fight in Strikeforce.
Alptekin Ozkilic (8-1 MMA, 0-0 UFC) vs. Darren Uyenoyama (8-4 MMA, 2-1 UFC) - Flyweights
Ozkilic is a former collegiate wrestler out of Long Island, New York who has been called in to replace the injured John Moraga. The Turkish-American has competed in pro MMA for only 3 years but has racked up the victories to put himself in position to be a solid prospect. Ozkilic's last fight before signing with the UFC was an impressive 30 second TKO of former WEC bantamweight Antonio Banuelos at Legacy FC in Texas.
Uyenoyama first raised eyebrows in the UFC when he upset the then revered Norifumi Yamamoto at the first ever UFC on Fox card in Anaheim, CA. Afterwards he dropped to flyweight, where he easily submitted England's Phil Harris by rear-naked choke. His grappling was completely nullified by Joseph Benavidez's fists this past April, and a left hook to the body finished him off in the 2nd round.

Quite nice. Amberish colour with perhaps a tinge of red. Sweetish at the start, but to my surprise it ended up having a dry, salty and bitter finish. Very nice indeed. Quite smooth, and easy enough to enjoy, while having a nicely complex malty character. Tatsed very authentic.

Thanks to baggio for this bottle.
33cl bottle poured into a weizen glass.
A = Clear caramel color pours with a yellowish two finger head which dissipates medium quickly into a thin layer of foam over entire surface.
S = Loads of caramel, toffee, fresh wheat grain, slight sour yeast smell, figs, brown sugar, even a little bit of stilton cheese in there.
T = Lots of caramel, good balancing bitterness, lots going on in this beer, raisins, I get some sharp wild flavors too but mostly only hints of them, blue cheeses and such while all the while a strong caramel and toffee flavor predominates. Pretty decent and unlike any other doppelbock I've had.
M = Medium bodied, good mouthcoating, enough carbonation to tickle the tongue but not overly intrusive past that.
D = This is a good beer but it does get just a little cloying after about half the bottle.

Grebbestad is a nice Swedish brewery on the west coast of Sweden. I like both this one and their Maibock. Bought five bottles at systembolaget, and I do not regret it!
Pours a deep red color with a nice big beigish head, though it after a while decreases to a nice foam ring in the glass.
Smells nicely of malts, sweetness and a slight tone of dried druits, good!
Tastes even better with lots of caramellish tones, dark bread, raisins and a nice sweetness, complex beer!

Another bock beer, this time from Bohuslän, Sweden, thats the westcoast, near Gothenburg.
Smell: sweet and malty - dried fruits, butter, almonds, sugar. Very nice.
Taste: round, soft and sweet, lots of malty notes, dark toffee, almonds, red berries, dried fruits, some chocolate notes, plus some notes of meat and soya. Alcohol is nicely integrated. Great taste.
Overall: excellent bock, malty and rich.

A clear deep amber with brown tones, a tan head that settles rather quickly, leaves some lacing.
Sweet tones of brown sugar, brown bread, dried fruits, raisins and figs, some sour notes - old apples, bitter oranges. A reminiscent of yeast.
Intensely sweet, sugar, plums, dark sweet bread, some spicy notes, nutmeg, cumin, cured grape-fruit zest.
Low carbonation, a big body, smooth - almost sticky texture, a modest dry finish.
Very sweet, but with good stamina, salt and spicy food is a good complement.

Pours a red amber with a not too impressing head, foams up nicely after a swirl though.
Smells great of dark fruits, figs, raisins and some roasted malts and bread, almost a bit of the same kind of smell you'd get from a cellared english barley wine, great .
Taste is great with initial malty sweetness hitting your palate in a deceivingly light way, and it gives way to buttery ripe dark fruits backed u p by a slight hint of roasted malts, a bit of a watery finish though, lacking some bitterness in my opinion.
Mouthfeel is great with a light carbonation consisiting of small non- pungent bubbles, yummy!

.33 cl bottle served into a Westvleteren goblet in Stockholm, Sweden. Reviewed live. Acquired at the local Swedish alcohol market at monopolistic prices.
A: Half finger head with appealing slight cream lacing, decent thickness, and abysmal retention (less than fifteen seconds). Colour is a light amber, semitransparent.
Sm: Amber hops, heavy raspberry and strawberry fruit ester hops, butterscotch, and cream. Quite pleasant and unexpected for the style. Moderate strength aroma.
T: Very pleasant fruit is actually the main tone, with strawberry and raspberry fruit ester hops abound over top an unfortunately weak barley foundation which can't quite support the hops. A slight watery note is generated as a result. No alcohol comes through. Some caramelized malt makes its entrance somewhere after the midpoint but leaves before the climax. The amber hops are craftily restrained to let the esters shine - a decision I like. It's imbalanced but overall pretty decently built for the style. Maybe best describes as a partially failed experiment.
Mf: Too smooth and wet. Watery even, but not creamy. The water is ruinous. It doesn't support the flavour of the beer at all.
Dr: Very drinkable for the ABV - which you don't notice, but suffering from imbalance mainly due to its unwelcome watery tone. That said, the flavours that are present are quite delightful. I'd love to try this beer after they sort the balance out.

A: Amber with brown tones. Clear liquid. The foam is thick, leaving some lacing. A slight haze.
S: Quite malty, some pumpernickel, also some hoppy tones. Slightly burned.
T: Hard swedish bread, strangely burned. Bitterness without any hop aroma. Some tones of whisky. Rather alcoholic and with a most unpleasant taste of soap. Quite dry.
M: The whisky alcohol taste and the soap makes it hard to drink. The liquid is thin with small bubbles.
O: This bottle must be faulty. Otherwise I don't understand the hype.

It pours almost ruby red, with an orange tint. The head is nice, off-white, and stays for ages.
Smell is malty, with hints of orange marmalade and maybe a plum or two. Some vegetable notes too.
Taste is malty for sure. Butterscotch comes too mind. Some earthy flavors. Esters are restrained but very nice, I get hints of dried fruits of every variety. And then the marmalade again.
A strong body that is not ashamed to be a doppelbock. Low carbonation that feels just right.
Good body and nice malty and fruity flavors but it doesn't push the envelope as a doppelbock is supposed to.

This beer is brewed on the first full moon of the year. It is brewed slowly during the spring and then matured until late autumn.
The colour is deep wine red with a hint of brown. The two finger head is off white, it sinks to an uneven thick lid, leaving lots of fine lacing.
The smell is fruity with lots of matured notes of strong red wine, raisins, marzipan, plums and peaches.
The taste is fruity and matured with lots of raisins, plums, apricots, butterscotch and wooden notes. The taste is very balanced and rich in flavours. The aftertaste is fruity with some sweet notes and a mild growing bitterness.
The carbonation is mild to medium. The small bubbles keep the smooth and creamy liquid a fresh experience.
Overall, I found this beer luxurious and very well crafted. Among beer enthusiasts in the Swedish West Coast, it is respected and honoured. It is not hard to se why

First thing's first: it's November 2007 and this beer has just come out of retirement! That's good news for all Doppelbock fans in Sweden.
I also feel the need to howl a shout out to Bohuslaen, the province where this beer is brewed. The label tells the tale of how the brewer Robert Bush mixes his goodies during the first full moon of the year so that it's ready to be tapped for spring - or in this case, winter...it was just released - consumption.
A: A beautiful pour with a huge, thick tan head. It glistens like a ruby when held up to the light, and later on shades of brown shine through. Plenty of lacing 30 minutes in.
S: The least appealing part I'm afraid. It's just too sweet and smells like raspberry with a hint of caramel. Not what I expect from a doppelbock.
T: Now we're talking. Hello doppelbock. Just a tad sweeter than, say, a Salvator. It is malty and bready but in a discrete way. A touch of hoppiness (Perle, Hersbruck and Mittelfruh) offsets this making it quite the balanced beer.
M: Oily and wonderful. But halfway through the bottle it seems a little watery, simply less filling.
Drinkability: One of these will usually do ya. And so it is in this case. But there's no mistaking that this is a very solid doppelbock. Kudos to the brewmaster and his crew! Go Grebbestad!

S: Sweet malt with dark dried fruits. A hint of red wine in it ass well.
T: Sweet malt that gives a nice taste of dark dried fruits. Bitter hops and some floral ones as well. Ripe cherries are also in this well-balanced doppelbock.
M: The body is full and the carbonation is medium. A really long aftertaste with a very nice balance between sweetness and bitterness.
D: A really nice doppelbock. I'm gonna buy 10-15 of them next time they're available (for cellaring).

Bottle, Stockholm, Sweden. A bungundy colored beer with a full head of good density. Looks great, but does not appear to be bottle conditioned. Sparse aromas show some malt (husk, grain, caramel) and perhaps a touch of honey fruit and herbaceous hops. Flavor is malty sweet, with some hints of caramel and toffee. An ok beer, but lacking malt depth and body.

Pours a deep wine red color with a nice white foam. It slowy dies after a while, leaving some nice lacing on the glass.
The smell got some nice notes of strong wine, sweet malt and toffee. Maybe some dried fruits/raisins there too.
Taste is mostly malty, sweet, hints of toffee, some dried fruits, some soy sauce. Alcohol is slightly noticable. Warming.
Mouthfeel is pretty average, not as full as I hoped for but still pretty decent. A bit thin. Update: I tried it again and the mouthfeel was a bit better. Nice.
Drinkability is quite high. Goes down pretty easy, despite the 7,9%.
New rating: Bottle, 2008 vintage, purchased at Systembolaget Karlstad in September 2008.
Pours a deep ruby red color with a small, dying head. Amazing color anyway.
Aroma is vinous; notes of port wine, dried fruits, toffee, liquorice, slightly nutty. Damn good aroma imho, very appetizing!
Flavour is sweet, malty and vinous; dried fruits, toffee, port wine & (sweet) liquorice. Palate is filling, fullbodied, smooth, a bit oily even. Carbonation is soft.
Overall a very nice sipper. I gave this 4.0 in September but this is even better than that! An amazing doppelbock, and overall one of the best Swedes all categories!
