Aass Pilsner…on tap at Norean Bar and Restaurant in Bergen, Norway
Appearance-clear gold, white head that is surprisingly small for a pilsner, still a radiant color and lots of bubbles, looks traditional, moving on.
Smell-The aroma doesn't have much skunkiness which according to other reviews really hurt this beer, actually I'm getting a mostly sweet profile. A little malt and grain as well, not bad at all.
Taste/Mouthfeel-light to medium mouthfeel, interesting taste that is sweet and grainy while also more full than I expected. I think I may now understand the complaints of skunkiness, because while it is sweet there is one off-flavor that I taste repeatedly that I dislike. This is also the last flavor on my tongue when the beer is finished.
Overall-a fine beer, except for a small off taste note, a shame as it could've been a great one. Give it a try to see if you agree.

Presentation: Slender green 11.2 oz bottle, it is stated on the bottle that this brew is lagered for three months before bottling. No freshness date.
Appearance: Rich golden hue with an excellent looking white lace.
Smell: Slight peppery hop aroma with a little fresh cut hay. Good combo of european malt and noble hops.
Taste: Velvety and mildly crisp, malty with some sweetness yet drying grain grows more and more towards the finish. Clean and lively, just enough noble hop bitterness to balance the malt, leaves a light peppery tingle on the tongue. Herbal hop and a touch of husky grain in the end.
Notes: A delight to drink, the long conditioning time before bottling shines in this brew. An exceptional brew that is nearly flawless upon my palate … a pils worthy of the gods.

Clear darker straw color, does white get any whiter than a Pilsner head? Touch of skunk along with a hop aroma. Malt is sweet with some sense of hazelnut, and along with the aroma, a little sulfur. Crisp hops are a good balancer. I don't know, there's a lot of Pilsner appreciation discussion on the forum these days....this is certainly acceptable and refreshing to me, the bottle may have been a little past its prime.

**NOTE: First beer review so I won't sound like you experts but we all gotta start somewhere eh?
When I went to Norway for a couple weeks on business years ago I had the privilege of tasting this wonderful beer. I loved it. There were other beer choices (Ringnes/Carlsberg, Hansa Borg) but nothing came close to Aass.
While there I only had it on tap. When it's on tap it's called Aass FatOl which means 'draught beer'. In cans off the shelf there's Aass Ol and Aass FatOl.
I found the beer very enjoyable on-tap. It had a nice golden colour (medium yellow) more 'real beer' taste (I warned you I was a beer review noob). I could just tell that they used some top notch ingredients not adjuncts. It has a crisp feel but is not over-powering.
When I was coming home to Canada I grabbed a case of king cans which cost me 700NOK/$100 US but I didn't care because I was brining home one of the best lagers I've ever had and I could't wait to explain to my friends that it wasn't "Ass Beer" but was pronounced more like "Ohse Uhll".
Unfortunately the canned stuff was never able to replicate what I had on tap back in Norway. When in the can there was a metallic taste that put me off. It became more of a novelty to me than the FatOl I loved.
According the the official website it's good with Salad, Fish, Chicken, Beef, Venison and Cured meats like ham (cured meats are huge in Norway and beer is the drink of choice when indulging). I think it's great with Gravlax (cured Salmon).
In closing, I'd love to have this beer available in Ontario on-tap but I'd even take it canned.

Dull, cloudy yellow in color, a thin off-white head. Tender wheat scents and fresh grass graze the nose. Up front, very sharp flavorings in the form of malts, some noble/grassy hops and a bit of fresh spices, a terrific mouthfeel. The body is largely based on the sweetness of the malts, with some spicy and peppery notes as it un-ravels. Perhaps one of the more under-rated, difficult to find pilsners on the market, but a must find for BAs across the board!

Had on tap at a lovely café at Observatoriegata, Oslo.
Light golden yellow, an inviting, white foam leaving some lacing.
A very fresh smell follows. Nice, this is what I want from a pils.
First impression of taste is that it's not very rich, though I get the general hint of citrus, but also the more pronounced taste of lemon zest.
The bubbles are hard but dies quickly. Easily drinkable, more so than the rough average of German pilseners. I think this beer, along with Spaten, should be the flagship of the category.

This is the first beer Ive ever tasted.
It is brewed in my hometown Drammen and its from norways oldest brewery- AASS. (Iknow.. norwegian ass beer)since 1834.
Pale lager.. Yellow.
Tastes best in bottle as all other beers.Exports to all other nordic countries.

Out of the can it looks high carbonated that gives a good dense white head. Colour is a light, almost straw like yellow. It's clear with fizzly bubbles.
Nose is a little sour malt that at first is a little offputting, but it makes more sense after the first tasting.
A clear bitter taste with high carbonation that hides the little sweetnes there is until the end. It also has some bread like grain features.
The feel of the beer is light and fresh with a lasting aftertaste. A refreshing pilsener great for those hot summer days.

The beer pours a clear gold color, with a massive frothy white head, decent lace coating the glass. Nose is sweet malt and citrus crisp, clean as one would expect from a lager. Start is malt and lightly sweet, the stop skimpy, minimally acidic, sparsely hopped, dry aftertaste. Drinkable, but just and average Pils/Lager to me, but would make a nice session beer.

This beer poured a slightly cloudy pale yellow, with a short head. Pretty inviting Not having had a Norwegian beer, the novelty of this drew me forward (that, the money I spent on it, and the cool label)
The aroma was of nice rich malt and was surprisingly nutty. Rather delightful.
The taste was of lightly sweet malt, a little bit of nuttiness and a bit of white bread thrown in. There was no hop character whatsoever. But it was a very nice, very drinkable beer, even for this hophead.

Skunky aroma (or at least what beer drinkers refer to as skunky as an actual skunk smells way worse than this, enough so that I wouldn't put it to my mouth) with a slight hint of hops. Golden colored. Medium head, malty flavor. Nice light finish. A decent Pilsner but pales in comparison to Aass Bock.

Tasted in a single-blind format with bottles of Warsteiner, St. Pauli Girl, Heineken, Grolsch and Bitburger.
Deep, mustard yellow color with tiny, intermittent bubbles leading to a sheet of foam. Aromas suggest a metal bread pan right out of the oven. Very sweet, sugary attack. Simply fruity with notes of cane, white grapes and canned fruit cocktail. Big and broad with slowly emerging candied grapefruit character. Very smooth with sugar reasserting itself on the long finish. I was very suprised with this beer. I had expected it to win hands down. It probably should not be compared to the other beers in this set as its big, substantial constitution will always seem odd in contrast. No indication of batch number or date on the bottle.

Generally considered the best macro-pilsener in Norway. And it is, by far.
Looks just like a great pilsener should, bright golden, very slightly hazy, beautiful, salt-white lace.
Summery smell, cut grass and barley fields, a little spicy and sour.
Citrusy, peppery complex hops. Not much malt-taste at first, but the aftertaste balances things nicely.
A very satisfying lager indeed! Beautiful in every way, and also among the cheapest here.

Bottled. Clear, pale golden with a small white head. Aroma is malty, but with some grainy notes. Quite sweet, malty and light flavor. Medium to light body and a finish with some bitterness. This is one of the best Norwegian pilsners, and in Norway it is only 4,5% ABV due to alcohol-taxation in Norway.(060216)

Aura of sopaipillas drizzled in honey and a side of kiwi fruit. Starts a husky malt that quickly tangs into a long bitter finish reminiscent of Kalamata olives. A little boozy for a Pils, but a smooth, satisfying body and a pleasing golden hue more than make up for it.

Pale yellow colored and somewhat effervescent. Barely perceptible skunky aroma. Crisp flavor but not much character. Dry, slightly acrid finish. I am guessing the Bock is much better than this.

Aass Genuine Pilsner is another delicious offering from Aass brewery in Drammen, Norway. Aass Genuine Pilsner is brewed in accordance with the German Purity Law and it shows in the taste. If you're down on Pilsners because you're used to American Pilseners designed for mass consumption you really should give Aass a try. There are no funky adjuncts in this beer, just Scandinavian malts, noble hops and Norwegian mountain water. Mmm.. delicious!

Enjoyed on-tap at the brewpub.
Served as a medium amber colored beer with moderate white puffy head.
Smell has distinct notes of citrusy hops.
Taste is absolutely superb. Stong citrusy hops with lots of lemony notes, balanced with just enough flavorful malt to make it really tasty.
Leaves a citrusy hop sensation in the mouth.
Perfect drinkabilty. Victory just keeps turning out great beers.

On tap at the VBC on 8/29/08.
Pours a clear medium gold with a 1/2 finger of brite-white head that retains fairly thickly around the edges, with some thin wisps across the center. Moderate lacing. The aroma is very fruity with citric notes of (especially) lemon, orange, and maybe some lime. There also an overall sense of floral hops and and an undercurrent of sweetness that rides under the other scents.
The taste is one again very fruity with citric notes of lemon tartness, lime, and a splash of orange that is carried along (and well balanced) by a sturdy base of malt sweetness. That is all set against a nice floral hop bitterness that lingers long on the palette with a dry feel. The mouthfeel is medium bodied with a fairly crisp feel and a lively, prickly, carbonation.
Interesting lighter offering from Victory, that while a touch too fruity, still offers a crisp and easy drinking experience. This will probably be a good one for the bartenders to pawn off on those looking for something on the "more moderate" side.

Appearance: clear yellow in color with a plenty of fast rising carbonation bubbles. Nice 2" head lasts quite a while, and lace paints the glass through the session.
Smell: loads of Simcoe hop bitterness and some citrus tones create a wonderful aroma.
Taste: the hop bitterness is prominent but is well balanced with some lemon and orange citrus. Some grassy tones and a softer ripe fruit sweetness round it out.
Mouthfeel: very crisp throughout. Medium bodied. Aftertaste is long as the Simcoe bitterness lingers in the mouth.
Drinkability: absolutely a great session beer that is a little different from the typical golden ale. This is a must try if it's on tap.

On tap the the Drafting Room (Exton) the other day.
The beer pours a bright gold color with good head retention and lacing. Frankly, it looks more like a pilsner/lager, something Victory does very well. I don't get a lot on the nose, just some light honey and hoppy bitterness. On the palate this beer is unusual. It has the body and crispness of what I expect in a pilsner, as well as some of the nuances of honey. However, this beer has a huge hoppy, bitter presense, that is very suprising for such a low abv. beer. Mouthfeel is medium bodied and, while pretty drinkable, the hoppiness in this beer strikes me as a bit out of balance, which hurts the beer's drinkability a bit.
A solid beer, but not one of my favorites from Victory.

A: Nice golden body. Huge white head. Solid lacing... A good looking ale.
S: Good amount of piney/grapefruit bitterness from the Simcoe hops in this guy... good malt sweetness in there as well.
T: A pleasant, balance hop-malt interplay is here... lots of piney, floral bitterness, hints of citrus-grapefruit and a solid malt base
M: Medium bodied. Smooth, with the right amount of carbonation. Light bitterness bite on the finish.
D: A great drinker... Good job Victory.

I was able to try "Gold Rush" during the Victory promo night at High Street Grill on 9/23/2008. They served it to me in a Victory pint glass.
This Victory beer poured a clear gold color. It was almost a yellow color, but I would say that it was more gold than yellow. On top of this gold brew was a creamy 3/4 an inch head of white foam. This head foam never really receded. It was the same size for the duration of the beer's life. When the beer did go down, the head of foam left behind milky white streaks of lace around the glass. Great appearance!
The Victory rep said it was brewed with Simcoe hops. It shows it! The aroma was very hoppy with bitter citrus hops, a hint of pine needles, a pinch of tart grapefruit, and a splash of lemon peel. I was kind of expecting some toasted malts to come through at the end to balance it out, but I guess all the citrus aromas covered it up.
The taste was very crispy and hoppy, but it wasn't overly hopped. It had the right level of hops to it. The taste was hoppy with bitter citrus hops, plenty tart grapefruit, a tiny hint of pine, and a splash of lemon peel. If that wasn't enough, right before the finish line, in comes the caramel malts to balance out all the citrus hoppy flavors. That's what I wanted to taste!
This clear gold beer was medium bodied with plenty crispy carbonation and featured a great hoppy aftertaste of citrus hops, tart grapefruit, and a small touch of toasted caramel malts.
This was a very refreshing and easily drinkable beer. I could easily drink this beer again and again. It's too bad that's not a year round beer in bottles and only available on tap at certain locations. If you ever see this beer at your local beer bar, get it!

On tap at Victory on 9/1/08.
A - Clear golden amber body with one-finger creamy white head that settled into a patchy film and left modest lacing. Very minimal carbonation present throughout the body.
S - Bitter grassy hops with a citrus rind character up front, as well as a mildly fruity, spicy aroma with sweet caramel and bready malts. Overall, this brew emits a fresh citrus quality.
T - Much like the aroma, the flavor is dominated by a fairly assertive citrus hop character with a bit of lemon tartness. However, the bitterness is backed up by a sweet maltiness with bready and caramel notes.
M - Medium body with a watery, though mildly oily, texture and lively carbonation with a good deal of prickle on the tongue. Finish is crisp and dry with a mild hop bite.
D - This brew has an interesting hop profile that is difficult to pinpoint, yet it is distinguishably Victory. This is a nice hopped-up pale ale, almost like Hop Wallop's little nephew.

This course is a historical-critical survey of the public discourse of Latino/Latinas in the United States from colonial times to the present. As such, we will focus significantly on such issues as language, establishment of identities, civil rights, immigration, the formation of communities, political participation, and cultural assimilation. In order to accomplish our task we will study the historical context of the discourse, prominent rhetors, and various pieces of discourse. Analyzing the environment out of which discourse springs, contributors to voice, and the arguments, styles, themes, and issues articulated is crucial for understanding Latino/Latina voices in the United States. This course will also count toward the Rhetoric & Media Studies major.
Mode of Inquiry: Analyzing Arguments, Reasons, and Values and Interpreting Texts.
This course provides an introduction to major aspects of Latin American Cultures (especially indigenous cultures), including the following: conquest history, ethnicity, national identity, religion, healing, politics, gender, media representations, Latinos in the U.S., and language. A service-learning component involves work with a local community agency serving Latinos.
This course examines films, features and documentaries, by and about Latin Americans. It focuses on the political, economic, social, and aesthetic tensions that characterize the region and contextualize cinematic production. It explores the constitution of Latin American cultural identity through film. Readings, written and oral work will be carried out in English.
This course presents the intellectual and material achievements of ancient Mesoamerican civilizations, particularly the Olmec, Zapotec, Teotihuacan, Maya, Toltec and Aztec; examines the contributions of humanistic and scientific approaches to understanding pre-Columbian Mesoamerican civilizations; and looks at the enduring influences of Mesoamerican cultures in contemporary Mexico and Central America.
Mode of Inquiry: Interpreting Texts; Thinking Historically; Indigenous Peoples and Cultures Cluster
Prerequisite: One of ANTH 250 or LAS/ANTH 251; or consent of instructor
This course looks at the role of Latino national origin groups in shaping state and national politics in the United States. It examines the political history, voting behavior, and non-electoral political mobilization of the three largest Latino groups in the United States -- Mexican, Puerto Rican, and Cuban, and questions the degree to which it is useful to conceive of a single Latino politics and Latino community. The course also focuses on specific public policies of concern to Latinos, and it pays particular attention to the transnational hemispheric processes that link U.S. Latinos to their countries of origin. Not open to freshmen.
Prerequisite: One POLI 100 or 200 level course, or one 200 level LAS course or consent of instructor
In the Senior Thesis, students are expected to integrate various components of the major program in the analysis of a topic of special interest. Topics must be proposed to and approved by the Latin American Studies faculty. The thesis will normally be written in English, but the incorporation of documentation and references in Spanish will be required. Also, a multi-page précis of the thesis in Spanish must accompany the thesis. The thesis is presented to a faculty examination committee upon its completion.
General Studies Requirement Fulfillment: Writing centered
Prerequisite: Senior standing in Latin American Studies

Hi Film Friends,
I know, it's been awhile since I invited you to a screening. My apologies.
In my efforts to make the world safe for Indie Film, I am pleased to invite you to a new venue: no less than the Film Society at Lincoln Center's re-born Indie Night series, now at the Elinor Bunin Munroe Film Center. We've got more seats, and more comfortable ones too! We will be taping & streaming the Q&A with the director!! And now we are also going to be able to pay the filmmakers a small fee (yay!)!!!
I want you to come see Mark Jackson's WITHOUT. It truly is one of my favorite films of the past year and I am thrilled I can show it to you. WITHOUT has won numerous awards, including most recently, the Indie Spirit Someone To Watch Award. It is a remarkable film, made even more remarkable by the fact that it is a first feature, and one made for a micro, micro budget. Not only is Mark a directing talent to watch, so is the star Joslyn Jensen, and the DP & Producer Jessica Dimmock.
Like all good movies, it's complicated to describe. At its heart, is a one-sided love story about one of the most powerful emotions in both life & cinema: longing -- a desire capable of altering both the perception & interpretation of our experiences. Few films, of any scale, have captured the essence of longing as well as Jackson's debut feature, WITHOUT, does in both its form and content. The film's economy of means helps to deliver a rare truth throughout its beautiful images, precise framing, quiet tone, & the mesmerizing introduction to star Josyln Jensen. Long after it has ended, even long after having watched it, WITHOUT still resonates: did we just live a love song, a ghost story, or a quiet thriller? Jackson delivers with his first outing what filmmakers strive for decades to obtain: the realest of real, the beauty of beauty, & the sweet pain of a never-ending early love. What more could one want?
There are few times when you can recount "I was there when", but I do think you will want to say it about this trio of talents, collaborating so well, and presenting it at this citadel of cinema, Lincoln Center. The fact that they will inaugurate this new series, which will bring you the faithful, the latest of the greatest of true indie work, is just more icing on the cake. When the lights come on, we will discuss the work with them, and then celebrate with drink and more discussion. Seriously, vote with your dollars for the culture you want. This is it. Trust me. Occupy the seats. Don't settle for pale corporate approximation. This is where cinema lives, survives and thrives. For real cinema, truly free film, is a dialogue with the audience, a pledge by the community, and a reminder that we won't settle for culture that doesn't reach higher, speak truth, innovate form and process, and deliver us honest and original beauty. WITHOUT honors us with all of this and more.

This post reflects my experience watching "Without" at last nights screening. Surly the reason I (as well as probably most the audience) went to see this film was because Ted said come out and watch it. It's his pick of the month for the launching of an indie series at FilmLinc. It's a good enough idea, and I'll look forward to what's in store...
As for, Without, the film is a successful Micro Budget. The filmmaker's hearts went into this work and as Ted put it, the execution of the film was done well.
Personally, I found the story difficult to watch... it wasn't pleasant or sad in any dreamy sense. It's rooted in an introverted, monochrome reality that at times made me wish I could skip ahead. The feeling that something big is happening in the stillness of this wounded young soul (Joslyn Jensen) provokes you to feel that the film is meant to profound, real and mysterious. Sure it's engaging, it keeps you intrigued, but now that I've seen it, I don't want to see it again simply because it's not my taste. But you should go see it and judge for yourself!
And if you're a filmmaker, you can easily dissect the mechanical choices of this film just by watching it and for this reason alone, the film is a valuable learning experience worthwhile.
I often read this blog, and I recognize this film in most of the Lets Make Better Films posting. Without, is a good example of what Ted is talking about in some of those postings. Making a film within your own reach. Stop waiting for all the damn pieces to come together. Design a minimalist shooting script, break out the Canon 5D (or borrow one from B&H), hit the street with a small pool of hungry Creatives like yourself and start developing your craft for a 21st century audience. Little ones, big ones... make them and move on to the next one. Find your groove. Test the field of the 100+ online self-distribution platforms, build a trusting audience and don't be afraid to challenge the damn form. We are in exploratory times and fortune still favors the bold.
In fact, I don't think enough important people are saying this so I'll just echo it again, Challenge the Form!

This is no reflection at all on "Without", but Ted, for Christ's sake, is there no escaping you, anywhere in the indie world? It's not enough that for many years you've had a lot to do with the kinds of films which get made at the larger budgets, which have helped make the independent world inhospitable to films like "Without". Now you're partnering with FSLC, to curate the non-corporate indies? Is there no one else FLSC could have turned to? How about giving someone else a chance?

Is Lincoln Center FS in partnership with Double Hope Films? What is the nature of the relationship? What is the relationship of Mr. Hope's production company to this series?

Regarding the lawsuit against Sundance (2012 Abbinante vs. Sundance H12S00037)
The lawsuit alleges that Sundance is committing fraud by not returning submission fees to filmmakers whos films were not screened and evaluated by Sundance.
"Because Sundance has prior knowledge of the unmanageable volume of films received (11,700 films for the 2012 festival) and did not return fees to filmmakers whos films were not screened and evaluated, Sundance is guilty of fraud." quoted by Darryl Abbinante and continued to state "It's simply not humanly possible for any committee to screen and evaluate 11,700 films." Sadly, the judge ruled in favor of Sundance stating "Sundance is not legally required to screen and watch every film submission in it's entirety." The judge also stated
"if you can not prove Sundance is not watching at least 30 seconds of each and every film submitted, then you can not prove fraud."
So the mystery behind Sundance has been discovered. Sundance is not liable to watch every film submission from start to finish and evaluate them. This is information that would've been very useful to the over 11,700 filmmakers prior to them submitting their films and submissions fees to Sundance for the 2012 festival, bringing Sundance an additional income revenue of $500,000 to $625,000 for the 2012 season.
Sundance is a well polished money making machine. They have found loop hole in the system and are exploiting filmmakers by the tens of thousands. I was one of them. I feel sorry for next year when (estimated) 13,500 filmmakers will blindly send in their films and submissions fees chasing a dream that no longer exists.
Kudos to Sundance and their staff for effectively creating a business that thru the years grows larger every year, despite the recession, by continuing to dangle the carrot of success in front of every filmmaker's face with promises of discovery and a film sale. Pure Genius.
Darryl Abbinante
Indy Filmmaker
Over 7000 film festivals require filmmakers to submit their film to 'without a box'.
'Without a box' is owned by another business (IMDb), which is in-turn owned by an even larger corporation (Amazon.com).
Filmmaker Magazine, Indiewire, Film Threat, and most all other Independent Film News sources are all being bought out, controlled and monopolized by one big corporate entity, there soul existence is to sell you a "dream" not to report truth or anything against Sundance, this is where most of their money comes from, advertising, film schools, and film festivals.
Sundance does not in fact watch the 12,000 film submissions, they have gone 'on record' to admit that watching 15 seconds or more of your film, is in fact legally within their obligations.
Sundance has made many millions, of dollars off of film submissions in over 25 years of existence.
Filmmaker Magazine, Indiewire, or Film Threat does not and will not report this, they cant.
The filmmakers do NOT own their films that they submitted anymore.
Did you know you "gave up that right" when you signed or clicked the agreement?
You didn't read.
Use Withoutabox (WAB) = Surrender Content Rights
Withoutabox's Terms of Service agreement (by signing into your account you are agreeing)
Under Item 13 it states that while Withoutabox (WAB) 'does not acquire any right or ownership' of your work when you use their service YOU AGREE TO GRANT Withoutabox IRREVOCABLE, non-exclusive, ROYALTY-FREE, perpetual and fully sublicensable right to use, reproduce, modify, adapt, publish, create derivative works from , distribute and display ANY MATERIAL YOU SUBMIT TO WITHOUTABOX INCLUDING CONTENT throughout the world IN ANY MEDIA. You further grant WAB and their sublicensees the right to use the name you submit in connection with the material.
Did you know that? In short, the moment you log onto WAB you give them permission FOREVER to sell your film anywhere in the world. They keep all money earned from your film (and anything else you upload or add to their site).
WAB is stealing all the content they can from naive and vulnerable filmmakers.
In years to come your film will be free to be uploaded, or small fees required to watch it, and you won't receive a dime, and who would want to pay for your film now?
Sundance Film Festival has cleared their reputation, Adam Montgomery has cleared Sundance's reputation, as also John Cooper. The festival has no legal obligation to watch your film.
This means that Sundance Film Festival is NOT A SCAM, IS NOT FRAUDULENT, AND IS NOT CORRUPT, all postings are therefore removed, the film Scam Fest is irrelevant and will not be eidted or completed, because our "burden of proof is irrelevant, all videos, all protest videos against Sundance have been removed
We encourage all filmmakers to keep submitting their films.

The recent revelation that Apple's iPhone OS had been falsely reporting to Exchange servers that iPhones and iPod Touches provided on-device encryption when in fact they did not has raised several questions regarding mobile device support for EAS (Exchange ActiveSync) policies -- vital safeguards many businesses employ to secure access to corporate information, whether to meet specific regulations or as a matter of general security prudence.
As it turns out, information on EAS policy support among mobile devices is not easy to come by. Also not easy is ascertaining what exactly will happen when an Exchange server is configured to use a policy that any given mobile device may or may not support.
[ The InfoWorld Test Center evaluates just what Apple's iPhone Configuration Tool can manage. | Read the "7 myths about iPhone Exchange policies" that users often believe. ]
Here's what IT can do to ensure the EAS policy compliance of users' mobile devices.
What EAS policies the devices really do support
Exchange ActiveSync 2007 supports 29 access and security policies that IT can enable. (To get the details on the policies and their values, check out Microsoft's documentation for Exchange Server 2007 policies.)
Just a handful of mobile devices support at least some EAS policies: Apple's iPhone; smartphones using Microsoft's Windows Mobile OS; Nokia's E and N series, as well as the S60 through a download; and Palm's WebOS, along with its defunct Palm OS.
Windows Mobile 6.1 supports all 29 policies, though an Exchange enterprise license is needed for 14 of them. Apple and Nokia did not respond to InfoWorld's request to list specifically what EAS policies their devices support; a Palm spokeswoman was unable to find the information even after several days. (Update: I finally got an answer from Palm eight weeks later, confirming the information below.) All three companies have published limited information on their Web sites:

The Anchorage dedicated and raised a new United States flag donated by the American Legion Post 30 of Albany, Monday morning.
The Anchorage has a 60' flag pole on site, a remnant of the days when the facility was a Nike Missile Base. The 10' x 15' flag cost $150, and will fit the tall flag pole more proportionately and be more noticeable than the small flag it replaced.
"Recovery involves personal devotion to God and getting outside of one's self by giving back to society. This flag will serve as inspiration to service - a reminder of our great nation, the many who have given so much to make it so, and the need for each of us to give back," said Anchorage Director Keith Gaines. "We greatly appreciate Mr. Marvin Mixon and Post 30!"
The Anchorage has operated since 1953 as a Christian residential ministry to persons seeking to live free of alcohol and drugs in their lives. It currently serves 56 men from all over Georgia and beyond.
Phase I of its ministry lasts four months and is provided free of charge except for a $40 admission processing fee, thanks to the wonderful generosity of its faithful supporters.

I purchased this product in order to get the proper torque on certain screws. Since overtorquing can cause damage to your vehicle or screw, it is essential to follow the specifications of your vehicle part when doing work yourself. This product works as it should and is good quality. Not to mention the full lifetime warranty provides piece of mind.
Round Lake, IL
via sears.com
Drawback 1: It's only accurate to +/- 4%. Drawback 2: The maximum torque is only 150 ft lbs. For professional mechanics, a higher accuracy will be required and a higher maximum torque (250 ft lbs) will often be needed for 1/2-inch Drive Torque Wrench.

Quality classic tool. No bells and whistles. Just a good quality torque wrench. When you only need a torque wrench once in a while , I suggest this simple tool.
Meridian, ID
via sears.com
This is a great alternative to other more expensive torque wrenches. It still does the job of giving you a reading and it is great for parts of the car that require high torque.
Rolla, MO

This is a great tool for the price that sears has it for. Life time warranty to top it off. I would buy this again and would also recommend it to a friend. Great value and great product.

The craftsman 1/2 inch drive beam style torque wrench is great for jobs from 0-150 foot pounds. It's a fairly good size tool so not great for small spaces.
Garnet Valley, PA
I bought this when it was on sale in sears and I have no complaints. I keep it in the package it came in to protect it and it is still straight after more than a year. I have never tested it to see how accurate it is but I would imagine it is pretty accurate.
Girard, PA
via sears.com
This is one of the few torque wrenches that still offered a life time warranty. I bought this one because I rarely needed one - only for tires. So I opted for this one. It works great. I highly recommend it.
Greenwood, IN
I use it all the time on our cars and push mower. Great for any work around the garage. I've had mine for 2 years and no issues. I'm buying one for my Dad this Christmas to make his work around the garage easier. Great product, easy to read (both Newtons and ft-lbs), and easy to re-zero if the bar is slightly off (as noted by another reviewer).

Today Nevs presented the Saab 9-3 Electric Vehicle as designed and produced as part of a prototype series in Trollhättan.
The car is a modified Saab 9-3 Aero Sedan where the batteries are placed under the floor, keeping the full interior space as well as the luggage compartment intact. With that, the Saab 9-3 EV is just as practical as the Saab 9-3 Aero with gasoline engine.
The Saab 9-3's famous driving-experience is of course preserved in the EV, helped by its low center of gravity and a 50/50 weight distribution.
"We are happy to present the result of Nevs engineering into a real Saab EV product. The Saab cars' well-known performance and safety is maintained and we foresee a very good product for the market. When we developed the Saab 9-3 Aero Sedan Model Year 14, we focused on enhancing the driving experience, safety and quality. And the starting point for our development of the Electric Vehicle project was to maintain all the good attributes and characteristics", said Stig Nodin, Vice President Engineering and Product Development.
The car shown in Trollhättan today is one from the first prototype series of cars and it was produced in the Trollhättan plant in May.
The car is equipped with lithium-ion batteries from Beijing National Battery Technology, a company within the Chinese group of green tech companies owned by Kai Johan Jiang's company National Modern Energy Holdings Ltd.
In this phase of the development the performance of the prototype series are limited to:
The range for this prototype series of cars is approximately 200 km.

Derek Piester, 39, was driving on a highway exit ramp when John Hickey's pickup truck rear-ended Piester's car. In the moments before the collision, Hickey had dropped his cell phone and was reaching down to pick it up from the passenger-side footwell.
Piester suffered a herniated disk at L5-S1. When his low-back pain persisted, he underwent implantation of a spinal cord stimulator. His past medical expenses totaled about $25,000. He continues to suffer pain and he will require future fusion surgery at an estimated cost of between $50,000 and $125,000. Until then, he will require surgery to replace the batteries in his spinal stimulator every seven years, at a cost of $50,000 per procedure.
Piester missed about 13 weeks from his job as a production supervisor for a coffee and tea manufacturer, incurring about $20,000 in lost earnings.
He and his wife sued Hickey, alleging that he was negligent in using his cell phone while driving and in failing to (1) pay proper attention, (2) keep a proper lookout, and (3) maintain a safe distance between his truck and Piester's car. In addition to other damages, the plaintiffs claimed lost future earnings, asserting that Piester would be unable to withstand the rigors of production floor management as his back condition declined and would have to find lower-paying, less strenuous work.
Hickey argued that the low-speed collision caused only a minor impact resulting in about $1,000 in damage to Piester's car. The defendant contended that he initially stopped behind Piester on the exit ramp but started moving again after Piester began moving, and that the collision occurred after Piester stopped a second time.
The defense also contested the nature and extent of Piester's injuries, arguing that he was not as seriously injured as he claimed because he refused treatment at the scene and returned to work.
The plaintiffs countered that Piester sought medical treatment the day after the injury and treated consistently since that time.
The jury awarded about $371,700. The parties subsequently settled for about $355,700.

Ladies We Love: Cathy Erway
February 24, 2010 at 2:09 pm , by Sonia Harmon
How would you feel about not eating out for a month? Or six months? Brooklyn-based blogger and amateur cook Cathy Erway decided to do just that—for two years. She was tired of takeout and overpriced dinners, but it wouldn't an easy feat in New York city, where eating out is the norm. She documented her venture on her blog, Not Eating Out in New York, and it quickly gained a following.
Her blog became the basis of her new book, The Art of Eating In: How I Learned to Stop Spending and Love the Stove, but it's about more than avoiding restaurants. You follow along with her as she faces a social life without dining out, cooking successes (and some disasters) and realizing the importance of knowing where your food comes from. It also includes Cathy's original recipes for you to try at home, so give it a look—it may inspire you to eat in tonight.
What makes me a lady: Listening to others and trying to do what I do best for them. (Usually, cooking something good!)
Favorite guilty pleasure: Eating a huge meal at midnight.
Three things on my life list: To grow more food or work on a farm, help efforts to improve school lunch food, and maybe, write a novel.
If I could have a superpower, it would be: Perfect balance. Not in a literal sense, but to stay focused and keep centered while playing a lot of roles and juggling a lot of pieces.
Ladies I admire: Alice Waters, Michelle Obama, Frances Moore Lappe and Anna Lappe, and heroes of my local food community like Annie Novak, Paula Crossfield, Kerry Trueman. All the ladies at Just Food, a nonprofit. And my mom.

"These questions have architectural ramifications. We've come up with a strategy for what is important to HP as a business," Anagol-Subbarao says.
Internal SSO (single sign-on) projects are great places to start because they provide a place to choose standards and projects without the pressure from outside partners. Plus, they're likely to show good short-term ROI. The trick is to make sure your SSO projects don't become calls for centralized directories, but rather employ federation technologies to do the job.
Many of the applications that you retrofit for SSO will be Web-enabled. "Start with simple browser-based access to applications inside the corporation," says Timo Skytta, director of Web services at Nokia. Browser-based applications are the low hanging fruit of federation because off-the-shelf identity products from vendors including Oracle, RSA, Novell, and others can often be retrofitted into the server side code with little fuss.
Federation projects within your organization have another big advantage: They force you to clean up your infrastructure. GM's Jackson say's it's the first step, and you can scale from there.
"If you go back five years, we had an uncontrolled number of identity sources, user IDs, and passwords; we even had multiples in single environments," Jackson says. "We had multiple directories in every flavor you can imagine. Over the last few years, we've consolidated directories and the way we do authentication. We felt we couldn't move forward with more sophisticated identity projects until we did that."
After you've got a few internal federations under your belt, it's time to move outside the firewall. Partnering with someone who's already worked through complex federation problems is a great way to learn. Federating with an existing business partner is preferable because you can leverage agreements that you already have.
Interestingly, one of the biggest challenges in federated identity governance is often getting companies to talk to one another. "It's hard to get people to come out and document what they've done because it's a business benefit for them -- the second customer integration [is] much easier," says Nokia's Skytta. The irony is that federation requires sharing solutions. "There are plenty of questions, and no one has all the answers yet."

---- — SALEM — Police are looking for four suspects involved in a road-rage melee that broke out in the parking lot of Market Basket on Sunday afternoon.
The incident apparently began when a Salem man, traveling with his wife and baby, pulled into the grocery store's parking lot at 227 Highland Ave. and was nearly struck by a white sedan that was leaving the area, according to the incident log.
When the man yelled out the window for the other driver to "be careful," one of the doors on the sedan opened, striking the man's vehicle.
After that, "things got out of control," police said.
The man got out of his vehicle, as did the four occupants of the sedan. The men began fighting, and the Salem man sustained numerous punches to the face and head. His wife tried to intervene, but she was knocked to the ground when she got caught between her husband and a man who was hitting him in the back of the head.
The husband told police that the assailants only got back in their car when a Market Basket employee and other shoppers got involved in the fight.
The suspects' vehicle was described only as a white sedan. The victims were unable to read its plate number. According to police, the driver is a white man in his late teens or early 20s, with a scraggly beard and blond hair. The front passenger, who was described as "the most assaultive," is a dark-skinned man between 6-foot-1 and 6-foot-3. The rear passenger is a short man with brown hair and eyes. There is no description of the fourth assailant.
An officer inspected the victims' car and noted a "deep perpendicular dent" behind the rear driver's-side door.
Police advised the couple to go to the hospital and to call police if they saw the vehicle again.
The incident was first reported to police at 4:15 p.m.

I choose this hostel for one as we had a morning flight and it's easy to get to the airport from this location. The location is a bit doll, but It's only about a 15 min walk to the center. Fine hostel, but nothing special...

The food on the Ruby Princess ranged from mediocre to terrible. There seemed also to be some indifference by the staff when this was mentioned. My wife was served a salmon filet that was raw in the center, mine was served barely warm. When this was brought up to the Maitre'd we received the proverbial brush-off. On another evening the salad was served so badly wilted that I did not consider it edible. On bringing this up to the waiter, he wanted to debate me on what was wrong with the serving. We had several conversations with other passengers who shared our experiences, There were some other issues with on-ship events, the planning of these was hit & miss. The muscicians were very good though.
I spoke with several other travelers on this ship, the common them among them was never again on Princess. What truly surpised me is that when I called Princess to discuss my experience, they had no one available for me to discuss my issues. Case closed: I'm back to Carnival.

After returning from Findhorn, Scotland in May or 2011 and experiencing the Findhorn Community and EcoVillage http://www.findhorn.org , I began studying the Peak Oil question with action and activities in mind. I have developed a plan to manage a Transition Center called EcoVillages of Cape Cod.
~ Being Reflections on a Trip to the Oxfordshire countryside~ (June 27-30th)
I spend the lovely hot day mostly indoors again and feel kinda devastated that we in this country are so poorly set up to transfer our lives outdoors when the sun shines; with invisible lap top screens and workshop venues with no large French windows that can be opened out to greet the day and allow us to spill out into it.
I have a very lazy day; I feel quite spoiled, a holiday in the midst of the walk. Cambridge is a beautiful place to be staying, and my diary is pleasantly filled with small engagements.
Findhorn are running what looks like an exceptionally interesting community currency exploration in August 2010 - for more information and bookings etc. have a look at the money and soul page on their website, in the meantime, here's a taster:
On The Money: Design Tools for Creating Community CurrenciesA Vision Quest to the Heart of Local Money
On The Money: Design Tools for Creating Community CurrenciesA Vision Quest to the Heart of Local Money
I live in the Findhorn Community, and work for the Findhorn Foundation, Spiritual Community, Eco village and education Centre.

A new YouTube video showing 1,000 high school students singing the United States National Anthem has gone viral.
The video shows The Kentucky All-State High School Chorus singing on 18 floors inside the atrium of the Louisville's Hyatt Hotel.
Michelle Johnson, who posted the video on her Facebook said the students sang to celebrate the start of the Olympics.
She says the video isn't the best quality "cause my fear kept me pretty far from the edge of the balcony."
The video so far has gotten more than 1.5 million views on YouTube.

1999 Saturn SL 1.9 SOHC from North America
The car is better than I expected it to be
Rear wheel cylinders (brakes) at 83,000.
Radiator cooling fan at 121,000.
Idler pulley at 138,000.
Belt tensioner/pulley at 138,000.
Idle air controller at 150,000.
General Comments:
Phenomenal average fuel mileage of 34 MPG in mixed driving with an automatic transmission.
The vehicle has survived a low speed front end offset collision, a low speed rear end collision, and a high speed glancing side brush with an interstate Jersey barrier with surprisingly little damage (right front fender, tire rim, bumper cover all repaired with salvaged parts. The only frame damage is from a rear impact, and that is livable without repair as the trunk still operates normally).
Cabin noise is higher than most cars from engine and road noise.
1.9L SOHC motor is not very quick when mated to the 4 speed automatic transmission. However, I've been able to coax more out of it when I've needed to.
I've driven this car twice across the United States without incident. It's great on level ground. It's not as confidence inspiring in the mountains. And unlike some other reviewers, I think the firm seats are better for very long drives.
What I love about this car is how hardy and surprisingly reliable it has been. Very few repairs outside of normal maintenance.
Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? Yes

too hard and dry

I should have listened to the negative reviews here; they are right. These goji berries are too hard and very dry. They are not pleasant to snack on. Why did i expect a good product from China, I dont know. I really should have known better. Buy the Heaven Mountain brand; they are much better.

If these were the first Goji berries I've ever tasted I would never eat them again. Keep these in a liquid for a while before eating. Go for Heaven Mountain Goji's for taste and moisture. Will not buy again this brand.

Posted by Reviewer2347958 on Aug 24, 2012
Purchased at iHerb
I bought this because it was a popular organic variety of goji berries available on iHerb. My first goji berry prpoduct off here is the Frontier Natural Products, which although it is not listed as being oragnic, is far tastier, and FAR fresher. I would absolutely not buy this product again, and feel like i have wasted 20 dollars as I now have this bag of practically inedible goji berries. maybe i'll make a tea with it or something, but I would highly recommend people avoid this brand and either go with the Fronteir Natural Products one (the only one I can recommend since I've only purchased that before) or some other brand after doing some more research.
Brittle, dried up - worst Gojis ever purchased
Posted by Reviewer2337710 on May 03, 2013
Purchased at iHerb
I've been eating Goji Berries for many years, sun dried... this is the first bag/brand where every berry is dried up and brittle, break in fingers. All sundried purchases before were sundried, nice bright color and pliable, some even really soft like raisins... will never purchase this brand again.

By Lauren Ebrahim / Tucson News Now intern
TUCSON, AZ (Tucson News Now) - The Better Business Bureau of Southern Arizona is warning businesses of fraudulent documents being mailed to them that resemble Arizona Corporation Commission filing documents.
The official-looking documents advertise a corporate document filing service for $125.
Cindy Andes, owner of Andes Tax and Accounting says that if the documents were to be filed directly with the ACC, the charge would be $45 and that the documents were asking for more personal information that is usually not required as well, like corporate minutes and credit card information.
The documents also include deadline dates for businesses to file, along with the correct ACC file numbers for businesses.
The ACC says the documents are trying to "intentionally create confusion by using language that is similar to that in Corporate Commission documents."
"We had two clients bring the mailer to us this week and ask us if we could take care of it for them," said Andes. "Fortunately we were able to determine the mailer wasn't actually from the ACC, and we were able to warn the rest of our clients."
The return address of the fraudulent mailing is listed as 4802 E. Ray Rd. in Phoenix, an address for a UPS Store.
Neither The Better Business Bureau nor the ACC have been able to identify the individual or group responsible for the solicitation.
The ACC urges you to contact the Arizona Attorney General's Office at (520) 628-6504, or by visiting www.azag.gov to file a complaint if your business receives the mailer.

The Carolina Panthers held a visit with offensive lineman Chris Williams, formerly of the St. Louis Rams, according to Howard Balzer.
A former first round pick out of Vanderbilt, Williams was widely hailed as a draft bust. The Chicago Bears chose not to extend his rookie contract after a series of injuries, and he found a place in St. Louis in 2012. Williams has not started a game since 2011.
This is another move set to be a cheap, one-year contract at a position of dire need. Williams is known primarily as a right tackle, but has the ability to move inside and play guard. He would compete with Geoff Hangartner if signed -- assuming the Panthers don't address the position in the draft.
The draft picture grows increasingly complicated, but all signs point to the Panthers selecting either a defensive tackle, wide receiver, or offensive tackle -- provided one falls to them at the 14th pick.

Hundreds of people walked through downtown Rapid City to help others stay warm.
The weather held out long enough for the walkers of the 2nd Annual Walk for Warmth to stride through downtown Rapid City Saturday.
Money raised goes to the Salvation Army and Church Response to help pay heating bills for those who many have trouble.
Last year the event raised fifteen thousand dollars, this year they hope to beat that.
"Black Hills power will match donations dollar for dollar, the nice thing about this is, all the money stays local," says Sarah Folsland with Black Hills Power.
Organizers say they hope to raise $20,000 this year, people walked a 1.5 mile course through downtown.

4/5 rDev -2.2%
The beer pours a hazy gold color with a thick frothy white head that fades to lacing. The aroma is good. It has a nice wheat scent with a lemon zest kick and a dry fruity yeast finish. The taste is good as well. It has a nice wheat flavor with a lemony twist. It goes down smooth and refreshes. It is crisp on the finish and has good mouthfeel. It is a low bodied beer with good carbonation. This is a fine American wheat ale. It refreshes with excellent aroma and flavor; a fine summer brew.

4.18/5 rDev +2.2%
On tap at the brewery this beer, served with a lemon wedge, was a clear, golden color like ripe corn with a good amount of rising carbonation. The head was white, the retention so-so and the lacing streaky. The aroma was bright, citrus (of course), crystal malt and another lighter malt I couldn't quite place. The flavors were dry, crisp and very refreshing. I tasted Vienna malt, a very light bitterness from the Northern hops and a crisp, wheaty finish. The body was light, the carbonation good and the mouthfeel good. Well balanced and highly drinkable, one of the best summery, wheat-based ales I've tried in a while!

If you notice any problems return it to Canon and demand a perfect one.
But I don't buy lenses from Canon, it's a the most cheap shop I can find ... and this gets tricky is there was a price discount if the lens is bought together with a body. Really, @ €2300 there mustn't be this discussion and the awkwardness to look for a good sample, that's why people usually say "Don't buy Tamron".
