Matso's, odd name, thought I would Google Translate it as the label has a Kanji on it and it translated as "approach" in Japanese... yeah well anyway this is the first brew I've had from Broome, a fairly isolated town in northern Western Australia, 2,200 km from Perth, here's hoping it isn't shite.
Poured from a 330ml bottle into a nonic pint.
A: A lagerish clear golden body with a chalk head that subsides to nothing. Looks an awful lot like an awful Aussie macro lager. I will however reserve my judgement for now.
S: More of an English styled Pale Ale aroma than an American one (i.e. less hops more malt), with its biscuit malt base, some golden syrup notes and a hint of fruity hops lingering around back there. Not impressed yet.
T: The taste of this beer is bland and unappealing. Like a mixture of an Aussie macro lager with an ale body and hints of ale flavour. There are notes of biscuit malt, golden syrup, and muted fruity hops, with... and this is just how boring this brew is: soda water. Any beer that has a distinct 'soda water' flavour is doing it wrong.
M: Strangely enough though this beer does have some body, mid to light with a medium carbonation.
D: I'm not even sure what the aim of this beer is, to bore me with pedestrian taste? Perhaps, if so: mission accomplished. It's like the brewers took a half decent English Pale Ale and watered it down with soda water, no joke. Most disappointing then, and I had another Matso's brew to review, not looking forward to that Smoky Bishop now, what a waste of $$$.
Food match: White bread toast minus any condiments or garnishes lest the flavour overpower the beer.

2.73/5 rDev -7.1%
A: Pours clear gol with head that dissipates quickly. Very carbonated like a soft drink.
S: Citrusy, sweet and hoppy slightly.
T: Citrus/fruity tang with a rich hoppy aftertaste.
M: Carbonation leaves a tingly feel in the mouth. Just a little bit watery.
O: Not bad but I've had other pale ales I prefer.

2.08/5 rDev -29.3%
Pours a very pale colour; quite translucent. Head is white, thin rim. Pretty bland.
Smells adjuncty and yeasty. Sweet honey with rice, corn and some barley malt. Not much grounding, just sweet and cloying.
Tastes similar. I guess there's 'standard' beer stylings, but yeah ultimately sweet and yeasty. Corny. Unpleasant.
Bit of body, but not much texture. Pretty awful.
Not a pleasant drop. Cloying, not much character. Might do well for punters in Broome but here, I like my flavour.

Good thirst quencher (summer beer) but doesn't stand out from the crowd.
aroma and taste: malt, bread, lemon and spice
The weakest beer I have tried from the matso's range, although I can see it's appeal and what it's aiming for.
For your typical beer drinker with little experience of craft beer it would be an excellent beer and for most people who are drinking in hot weather and don't want an in-your-face beer, it would also be very good.
As the beer is produced in Broome, where the weather is on the hotter side and many tourists visit, the beer is very good and achieves what it's aiming for.
However, being spoilt with many good quality craft beers with big aromas and flavours it doesn't really compare.

3.48/5 rDev +18.4%
Bottle: 330mL brown bottle, funky and classically styled label. Very nicely presented.
Appearance: pours a finger of white head with some lacing over golden body. Fairly standard looking.
Aroma: fairly standard pale ale - grapefruit, passionfruit and piney hops, tiny touch of caramel.
Taste: again, standard pale ale. Very nice, but nothing new. Fruity characteristics with some spice.
Aftertaste: lingers nicely, but nothing amazingly new.
Mouth feel: light in both body and carbonation.
Overall: this beer has a number of good points, and only one bad. It is a fairly standard but nice pale ale - well made and with good sophistication - it is a nice drop. However at AU$76 a case from the brewery (2012), I'd expect to see it from shops for more likely $90 - $100+. Outrageous pricing, considering there are just as good pale ales for half this price. I don't know who is doing the marketing and pricing at Matso's, but this is completely unacceptable.

Pours gold with a small head.
Nose shows grapefruit, passion-fruit and piny hops, along with some spicy notes and faint caramel.
Not as interesting flavours, some faint fruity and floral hops followed by bready malt.
Could use a little more carbonation.

2.9/5 rDev -1.4%
Appearance - 3.0
Pours a finger of white foam head that quickly receded to a thin layer over a clear, golden body.
Smell - 2.5
Very light aroma suggests of apricot, grainy malt and a little sweetcorn (DMS).
Taste - 3.0
Grainy, cracker-like malt flavour, a dab of caramel. Moves on to a juicy mid palate with light mandarin and apricot fruitiness. Moderate hop bitterness lingers in the finish.
Mouthfeel - 3.0
Lightly carbonated, although that is almost certainly due to my vigorous swirling in an effort to inhale the very weak aroma. Light bodied, easy to drink fast.
Overall - 3.0
This beer comes as something of a disappointment to me, it seems to be designed for swilling in hot weather without much aroma or flavour getting in the way.

3.05/5 rDev +3.7%
This is a new offering in bottles from this brewery and it pours a clear golden hue which leaves a frothy sudsy two finger head and sporadic little lacing its average looking,the smell is also average with aromas of grains,pale malts and floral hops,the mouthfeel is just over light bodied and has tastes of honey,pale malts,a touch of toffee and finished with a floral hop dryness and overall its average and i would not revisit and in my eyes such a let down from the rest of their lineup it really is i mean the mouthfeel the best part and its easy enough to drink but so is water come on guys forwards not backwards.

A word from Napa General Store
When Jim & Jill Brandt decided to open the Napa General Store they wanted to create a casual space that reflected the history of the building that they had rescued along the banks of the Napa River.Continued
It was important to them that the Napa General Store was authentic in every detail, and that includes making their cornmeal pancakes from scratch, squeezing oranges for juice and using local farm-raised eggs for breakfast.
Their hearts told them that if they put together the friendliest staff in Napa, and treated guests like they were home, that good things would follow.
After more than ten years of welcoming locals and visitors alike it seems their instincts were correct. Locals have their favorite tables and visitors return year after year for the quality, value and down-home charm.
The Napa General Store café continues a tradition of casual riverside dining in a relaxed and comfortable atmosphere (Fido welcome on the back deck).

- Great Breakfast to start the dayFoodywithwineVIPDined on 8/17/2014We used the Napa General Store to start our day of Wine Tasting. We met here as a group, really enjoyed being able to browse the store before and after breakfast, they have some really unique wine themed things. We had a great breakfast, loved their Corn Meal Pancakes and they know how to cook a medium egg. Would have liked the bacon more crispy but I didn't ask for it.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Welcome to NapaTexan52Dined on 8/10/2014Arrived in Napa on a Sunday afternoon, checked in at the Napa River Inn, and walked through the courtyard to the Napa General Store for a late lunch. I had a delicious green salad, and my husband had a turkey wrap. We sat outside among the gorgeous flowers and relaxed. It was a glorious welcome for our first time in Napa.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Friendly Casual Place At the RiverHelenaRoseDined on 7/20/2014Napa General Store has changed from order at the counter to table service. Its very cozy and casual. you can shop while you wait. There is a scenic terrace overlooking the Napa River. On a warm day it's great to sit outside. We ate and talked, and stayed for a long time, but on one rushed us. Recommend it for the the food too!!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great StopPea913VIPDined on 7/17/2014Stopped for lunch at this charming General Store. The good was fresh and delicious. There were some interesting choices in addition to regular fare. We enjoyed sitting outside but there's indoor seating too. Some very nice things in the General Store if you're looking for a unique gift. If you're looking for a casual delicious meal go here.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Food was good but took a long timeWineCountryGirlVIPDined on 7/12/2014We really enjoyed our breakfast this morning but had to wait longer than we thought necessary for our food. We were dining with a couple of toddlers and they did bring out a plate of fruit right away for the kids so that was good.Special Features:
- Not greatGinnyVIPDined on 6/10/2014Just okay And unsophisticated The waitress was not sure which wine was which and she had way too many tables to be attentive to anyone
- Great food in a small placeFoodNaziDined on 6/7/2014we had dinner there when they opened at 5:30 pm last Saturday, June 7. Choice of flat or bubbly water, good wines but a short list, a few mixed drinks. I had lamb ragout that was spectacular because of the layers of flavor they developed, slow cooking a marinated leg of lamb and a chile for spice, whose name I have forgotten. Patio tables are arranged so there is quite a bit of privacy, interesting. Price was as expected for 4 people and drinks.\Special Features:
- consistently goodNapaSueDined on 6/6/2014The General Store is consistently good, the patio especially nice. But I do wish they would change their menu. We've come regularly since they opened and would like to see some different items on the menu.Special Features:
- My "go to" locals lunch spotNapachickDined on 5/5/2014Great lunch menu. Every so often I just crave The General Stores' Asian chicken salad. I love to take a break from work, meet a friend on the outside patio overlooking the Napa river and enjoy a glass of wine or an ice tea with my salad. Their staff is always friendly and I can always count on getting in and out in a timely manner especially if I need to get back to work. If my time is more leisurely I love to walk through the front entrance store because they always have wonderful and fun items for sale by local artists. Highly recommend for a lunch!Special Features:

- Good food, great locationNWeaterCCDined on 3/30/2014The food was good, it was kind of what I was expecting, didn't blow me out of the water, but not disappointed. Service was ok as well, but the food did give us the energy to make it through the afternoon in Napa.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- We live in Orinda and droveexplorerVIPDined on 3/26/2014We live in Orinda and drove to Napa for something different. We're so glad we did. This was a delightful breakfast in a fun store, off the river in a nice environment with such friendly people. The breakfast was delicious. There were a number of choices. I would highly recommend it. If the weather had been better we could have eaten outside, overlooking the river.Special Features:
- A Local Gem at a Moderate PriceNapamelVIPDined on 3/11/2014As a local, I find this a nice place to go for lunch with other family members without breaking the bank. Everyone enjoyed the food and the experience.Special Features:
- LOVED the pancakes!LauraVIPDined on 3/7/2014I loved the pancakes (cornmeal) probably because I can't find cornmeal pancakes at home. The syrup was amazing! I think it was a reduction. I loved the Napa scramble, but it could have used more goat cheese. I know a little goes a long way, but I only got a tiny bit. I liked shopping in the cute store before my table was ready. The waitress was jolly!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Dine and ShopOnly1splashVIPDined on 3/2/2014Great location for quick brunch on the go and the ability to shop all at one location. food was good.., server was very nice and interacted with us making a delightful experience. her shift was up early and had to leave but seamless transition.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

- MehWinoVIPDined on 1/26/2014We chose it for brunch based on an e-review. We were originally ignored. Then we waited quite some time just for coffee. We could see that our order was sitting & ready while our waitress served another table their juice. As a result, our eggs were cold & not very flavorful. The setting is charming.Special Features:
- Good Food at Moderate PricesElceeVIPDined on 12/9/2013It's refreshing to find a good food place in the Napa Valley at moderate prices. An extensive menu with lots of choices too. Food is prepared well. And tasty. Indoors in winter, outdoors on the water during warm weather months make for pleasant ambience. Our Party had an excellent pizza with carmelized onions, fresh mozarella and veggies; excellent Greek salad with lots of very good chicken breast, a huge chicken & avocado sandwich with very good fries. NiceSpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- client breakfastjeffVIPDined on 12/3/2013a bit tucker away. However food and service was great, cool woodburning stove on a cold morning was a big positive!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Not BadBrianVIPDined on 12/1/2013The restaurant isn't bad, but service was slow even though the restaurant was only half full and the food was good but not great. It has nice ambience right on the river.Special Features:
- Nice for BrunchPiggy1Dined on 11/29/2013Our out-of-town guests liked it and we were able to chat for a long time without feeling rushed. Good array of brunch selections.Special Features:

Food was fair/good...we shared pizza, chicken quesadilla, ruben sandwich, and fish&chips.
- Awesome Breakfast!ThelmaDined on 11/17/2013If you want a great breakfast in Napa this is the place. We had a delicious breakfast. Omelette of the day and an order of their French toast.

- The Napa General Store isChristineVIPDined on 11/11/2013The Napa General Store is a great place for lunch, not open for dinner and I wish it was!!!

- Neat place, food was not that greatCorndiggityVIPDined on 11/10/2013This is a cool place in the heart of downtown Napa, but we left disappointed overall with the food. The Corned Beef Ruben was tough and chewy, and the Chicken Caesar Salad was bland (the chicken had no flavor). Our server was great and again, a neat place, but the food did not live up to its reputation.
- One small pointSonomaJayDined on 11/3/2013Fall mornings are cool and winter is coming. Time to beak out or invest in propane heaters for the patio.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

Philadelphia Eagles
LeSean McCoy - #25 - RB
|5' 11"/ 208 lbs.
|Harrisburg, PA
|Years played
|2009, 2nd round, 21st pick by Eagles
Brown's offseason goal: Hang on to the ball
Eagles RB Bryce Brown has shown some impressive flashes, but his lack of ball control is disconcerting.
Brown owners aren't anxious to see McCoy back
Pat Fitzmaurice says LeSean McCoy owners who have Bryce Brown as a handcuff wish that McCoy would take the rest of the season off.
Eagles' Vick, McCoy will not play vs. Panthers
Eagles QB Michael Vick and RB LeSean McCoy have officially been ruled out of Monday night's game against the Panthers.
Week 10 fantasy tips: RBs
Start Shonn Greene despite a tough matchup, don't expect Frank Gore to wear down and look out for a few backups, according to PFW's late-week fantasy RB tips.
Week Five fantasy tips: RBs
Ryan Mathews may get robbed of some goal-line work, but he still has a chance to be productive vs. the Saints in Week Five.
Key matchup: Giants defense vs. Eagles RB LeSean McCoy
The Eagles know they need to get LeSean McCoy more involved, and in the right way, against a Giants defense that has played better of late.
Week Four fantasy tips: RBs
The PFW staff thinks LeSean McCoy is due for a big workload, Ryan Williams is on the rise and yes, it's finally time to sit Chris Johnson, in this week's tips.
Notebook: Pondering the NFL rushing-title race
PFW's Mike Wilkening handicaps the contenders for the NFL rushing title, a subject which can be wagered upon in Las Vegas.
Eagles could take care of Maclin next
The Eagles' front office has done a good job of locking up young talent and WR Jeremy Maclin could be next.
Biggest regrets: These 2012 moves will be rued
These will be the 10 biggest regrets when we look back at moves made in 2012.
At No. 2, one QB, two RBs hold major appeal
What should you do if you're stuck with the No. 2 selection in your fantasy draft? PFW's Mike Wilkening will be looking hard at a pair of RBs.
Can RG3 avoid the 'Snyder snuggle?'
Many fantasy owners covet Robert Griffin III, but PFW analyst Pat Fitzmaurice is taking a skeptical view of the rookie quarterback.
Eagles extend RB McCoy
The Eagles announced a five-year contract extension for RB LeSean McCoy on Thursday evening.
Texans' Barwin likely to terrorize QBs even more
With Connor Barwin healthy and not having to learn a new defense, the linebacker figures to be even better, according to our "Whispers."
Eagles' fantasy questions for the offseason
What will happen to DeSean Jackson — will he get the franchise tag then get traded? That's one of several fantasy football questions surrounding the Eagles this offseason.
McCoy returned to action on Sunday and finished with 122 total yards for the Eagles in a loss to Washington.||||||| He had nine catches for 77 yards, and rushed 13 times for 45 yards.
McCoy will start at running back for the Eagles against Washington in his first game back after missing four because of a concussion.||||||| Rookie Bryce Brown filled in nicely for McCoy, running for 347 yards and four touchdowns in his first two career starts. But Brown had just 40 yards in the next two games and fumbled four times in four games.
Quarterback Michael Vick and running back LeSean McCoy will not play Sunday, when the Philadelphia Eagles meet the Tampa Bay Buccaneers (6-6). In an expected announcement, Eagles athletic trainer Rick Burkholder said Friday that neither has been cleared to return to football activity after suffering concussions last month.||||||| Burkholder sent McCoy to Pittsburgh to be examined by the University of Pittsburgh's concussion specialists because he "just didn't like the way things were adding up. I didn't like how he was getting symptoms at night and not during the day." He said those tests yielded nothing alarming but did convince Burkholder to change McCoy's rehabilitation protocol.
McCoy ran for 119 yards in Monday's 28-13 loss to the Saints.||||||| McCoy has two rushing scores through eight contests. He had 17 last season.
McCoy ended up with 67 total yards and two touchdown in the Eagles' loss to Atlanta Sunday.||||||| McCoy had one rushing score and one TD catch. He remains one of the top backs in fantasy football.

Vikings at Colts - Predictions
I think it's going to be another close game and it's going to come down to how our achilles heel the secondary plays, as will every game this year. Will we make Luck look like a pro-bowler like we have so many QB's in recent years, or will we finally have one of those multi INT games?
I have a feeling we're going to pick Luck at least twice, and I can see 1 going for 6. We're long overdue. He just gives me the same vibe I get whenever we face Eli. We own that dude for whatever reason. AP is going over 100 too, with most of it coming on the 60 yarder he'll have on our opening drive of the 2nd half. Just get Harvin the damn ball Ponder.
Vikings 24-20
Week 2 standings:
Vikings 2-0

I think this one looks close for three quarters, but then the pressure gets to Luck and he tosses a pick 6 our way. After that, it's never close again. Vikings win, 34-20.
My Meeple is purple. What color is yours?
Our track record against the Colts is not very good, of course, Peyton might have had something to do with it. Being on their turf won't help any.
I think we are the better team, but very unpredictable at this point. Luck will continue to struggle until his OL can give him some protection, but if he's going to play well early in his career this might be a good week for it. With their apparent de-emphasis on the running game, our nickelbacks should get a workout.
I think the Colts will move the ball and put up some points, but the Vikings are hungry to get another taste of victory and will find a way to pull this one out. 27-24.

Vikings 27
Colts 17

I think Jared breaks out in this one and puts some backside pressure on Luck. We need will disguise and blitz often. Harvin comes up big with a double dose of AD and Toby. Vikes move to 2-0! 23-17
I see this as a low scoring game with us pounding away with Adrian, and Toby keeping the ball away from Luck. We win a sqeaker 20-14.
The Colts will be without Freeney, Angerer, Reitz, and possibly Collie this week.. This should definitely benefit Kalil and Ponder.
Vikings win 34-21

Last week's game, although a win, didn't give me great confidence that this team is any better than mediocre to average. We still have a young and inexperienced secondary, and Luck threw for 300 yards last week (though a lot of it was in catch-up mode). Even though they didn't look like world beaters last week, the run D should shut down the Colts poor excuse for a ground game and then it will be up to the secondary to limit the damage through the air. I'd expect the DL to record a few sacks, and the Vikings to control the LOS on both sides of the ball and pound the rock on the ground. As with most weeks, we need to eliminate the turnovers, drive killing (or drive extending) penalties, get some three and outs on D to keep them fresh, and eliminate some of those 3rd and long conversions by the opponent. I see another close game, with the Vikings again winning by a FG...something like 23-20.SKOL VIKINGS!
31-17 Vikes.
Ponder is going to start finding his rhythm on a more regular basis and it starts against the Colts. Sorry Indianapolis its just the luck of the draw.
Ponder is going to have a BIG game. Over 400 yards big....I bet you could use a cool one huh Clark...Now you're talkin Eddie...
I honestly have no idea what to expect. Both teams and both coaching staffs are young. Unexpected things are boud to happen that will swing the game one way or the other.
With the exception of the WR's and the secondary are the weak points and I expect that to be the case all year but they are fun to watch as they grow and gain experience.

Select Route:
Whitney Gilman climbs the prominent ridge on the left side of Cannon. Interesting climbing, great belay ledges and incredible exposure make this climb a classic one. Edging up the well defined arete is an experience unique to New Hampshire climbing. There is no 5.7 more exposed than the WG.
Standard light rock rack to 3". There are many fixed pins en route, so bring a number of slings. One rope is fine. If it is necessary to rap, one rope will get you down since there are so many ledges. You will need to leave gear, as there are no fixed anchors. Also, a helmet is mandatory.

We saw a sunny start to our Friday, but clouds will build again this afternoon. Highs will reach the low to mid-50s for a nice day.
Tonight won't be too cold. Temps will be in the upper 20s, near 30 to begin your Saturday morning.
Saturday will be beautiful. Highs will reach the mid to upper 50s. It will be sunny all day with no more than a light breeze.
Conditions will be dry until Sunday. A chance of showers - especially early in the day - may affect your Easter plans.

If you thought last year was HMS Epic then the return of Bestival promises to blow you out of the water!
Yes indeed, you may recall when last we met; we were all aboard the good ship HMS Bestival. Since that heady weekend we have sailed far into uncharted waters on a voyage of exploration and discovery, picking up rebels, misfits, artists and prophets, but alas we have run aground. Now, beached upon the warm sands of a tropical paradise our lookout peers through the palms fringing the beach, in a clearing he sees a stone temple, and teems of bamboo and palm roofed shacks. He hears the distant sound of drums on the breeze and sees tiny tribes-people moving and shaking. And there, in the middle of it all, the source of his confusion, is a giant bloody disco ball...
This, my friend, is Desert Island Disco. And you are very welcome.
Kicking off with a frankly magnificent headliner, and our very best theme yet, believe us when we say Bestival is gonna go off big time this September 4th-7th, and you're gonna want to be with us!
Rob da Bank says: "Hey ya! By the power invested in me as chief Bestival booker, I'm pretty darn excited to announce that OutKast are headlining Bestival this year! We've fought hard to get the recently reunited legendary hip-hop duo onto the ferry... and it's no ordinary ferry this year as Bestival goes Desert Island Disco for 2014. Palm trees, grass skirts and mirrorballs are the order of the day. It truly is gonna be the Bestival yet!"
Levels of excitement are beyond stratospheric in the Bestival bunker because one of our all-time favourite duos, OutKast, have not only reformed but they're also coming to headline Bestival, laying down the sickest flows they know in one of only two UK Festival appearances! From Southernplayalisticadillacmuzik to Idlewild, Andre 3000 and Big Boi have consistently delivered booty shaking brilliance; their live shows are the stuff of legend and their comeback is undoubtedly one of the most feverishly anticipated this century, making Bestival a golden opportunity to catch the most popular, innovative and downright amazing hip-hop force on the planet! As you can probably tell, we're just about as pleased as we've ever been that the Gs have returned and part of their 20th anniversary celebrations are going to be with us! BRING. IT. ON!
It's just the beginning, there's a whole desert island of disco infiltrators to reveal, with THREE more headliners, plus wild attractions and mind-blowing treats that will astonish and thrill your very being to the core. So pay heed to www.Bestival.net and our Facebook and Twitter.

Reviews for Sour Cream Peach Pecan Pie
Sort By :
Easy to make and fabulous tasting!
I was a pastry chef at a 4 star hotel and I made this pie all the time. I called it "The World's Best Peach Pie".
Words can not describe the taste of this pie - amazing and worth the 500 calories per slice! If you want to knock someones socks off with a very special dessert this is it. I baked the pie using a regular lard (tenderflake) crust.
This pie was amazing! I didn't have any peach preserves so I added apricot preserve instead. I didn't have any pecans either instead I added slivered almonds instead.
I have a smaller pie pan so I used a cup less peaches. It was very good! In fact, it smelled so good while cooking we couldn't wait for it to cool and ate it warm! We ate the left overs the next day cold. It set really well, but we prefered it warm - it was just a little runny. Thanks for sharing!!

Hey Coach: Put Me In

Let me pose a simple question to you. How many of you can remember sitting on the sidelines during a football game and yelling out to the coach "Hey coach, put me in; I can get the job done"? I do not know about you, but it has been a long time since I suited up and ran out onto the field as a defensive tackle. As a matter of fact, I believe that Lyndon Johnson was president at the time. Maybe it wasn't football, perhaps it was some other sport, but the act was the same. We wanted the coach to pay attention, so we yelled. Sometimes this worked and sometimes it made the coach mad.
What was it that made the coach so important? On the one hand he controlled any possible shot you had it playing in the game you loved so much. On the other hand, there was the importance of his skill at imparting the knowledge he had about playing the game. This skill was critical because it gave you a better chance at succeeding in your chosen sport.
It was the way in which these two coaching functions came together that allowed another function of coaching to come into play. If your coaches were anything like mine, they were first, and foremost, motivators. Each of us normally looks for control, enrichment, and motivation from those we look to as coaches in our lives.
In Management in the Fire Service, 4th ed. Carter and Rausch tell us that, "…a distinction must be made between coaching and counseling, terms that are often used synonymously. Coaching, which is as much a part of an officer's job as counseling, concerns assisting firefighters and lower-level officers to gain greater job-related knowledge." Even such a solid bureaucratic organization as the U.S. Army has recognized the importance of the leader as a coach.
Many years ago, a methodology was introduced that required both superiors and subordinates to communicate at the beginning and end of each performance rating period. In this way goals could be jointly set, agreed to, and performance closely monitored by both parties to the coaching equation.
One of the benefits of this method of interaction was that it allowed for the development of a set of coach and players relationships. It brought the players closer together. I recall this type of interaction from my many decades of service and the active and reserve forces of our nation. More frequent interactions began to occur during the rating period. In many cases this led to surprising improvements in the performance on the part of the players involved. You ended up with better coaches and better players.
Let me suggest that this is a two-way interaction, because the person doing the challenging has to work that much harder to stay ahead of the person who they are stimulating. Think of the benefits for any organization when this system of coaching and challenging takes hold and begins to spread. Knowledge, training, and skills become important elements in the day-to-day operations of the agency.
Under this self-motivating system of operation, people see the benefits of striving for greater knowledge in the organization around them. They begin to seek knowledge because it is important for them to stay abreast of the skill levels of their coworkers. These folks see people moving upward in their department as a result of their ability to demonstrate a higher level of knowledge and operational skills.
Over the years, people have told me that they see this way of operating as the, "I don't want to look stupid in front of my friends" approach to fire department operations. When properly cultivated, this can be a tremendously rewarding and successful style of coaching and leadership.
Imagine what it might be like to work in a fire department where people actually started to enjoy working with one another: a fire department where there was constant, challenging, back-and-forth interaction. Think of what a positive, challenging environment this could be.

You Said: Reader Comments on Yoga as Healing
I have been doing yoga for five months, and during that time, not only have I found a form of exercise I absolutely adore, I have unlocked long-buried emotions that allowed my self-esteem to bloom, my confidence to strengthen, and best of all, the crippling contempt toward my body has diminished to the point where I can look in a mirror and find what's right with my body.
I still have work to do, but yoga is definitely helping me get the job done with compassion and the pure joy of movement.
--Karen Quicker,
Recently I went through a bad breakup. It turned out that my ex-boyfriend was married. I was so frustrated and angry with myself for not being aware of it, for not seeing it. I dove into my yoga practice even more and day by day. I've released more of the anger inside me and have increased my awareness of all things. Yoga has helped me regain my sense of self and awakened peace and happiness in my heart. I'm thankful I found yoga because it has truly changed who I am.
My husband signed us up for our first yoga class because I have suffered for years with neck and shoulder pain from stress-related muscle contraction. I had tried analgesics, massage, traction, heat, cold, ultrasound, inversion table, and tears to deal with my pain. I knew at my very first yoga class that it was for me. I have been practicing daily now for 9 years and am almost always pain-free. I practice approximately 30 minutes per day. I plan to practice every day for the rest of my life.
Susy Iovan,
When I was twenty-one years old I bent over to pick up a heavy box, on my way back upright I felt a twinge in my lower back that left me in serious pain. I was in bed for days I couldn't even go to the bathroom without crawling or getting some assistance. After a week or so I was back to normal with all thoughts of lower back pain behind me. Six months later I aggravated it again doing push ups! It seemed like every six months or so it would flare up. Then at the age of thirty five I couldn't take it anymore and went to the doctor. They took an x-ray of my back and found that my spine was fine! I was diagnosed with a very weak lower back or pinched nerve. The only thing the doctor gave me was some muscle relaxors. About that time my wife started taking yoga and was very excited about it. She asked if I would be interested in trying it. I was very skeptical but was willing to see if it was for me. The first class was very painful for my back but I fought through it! I was really sore the next day. I noticed that my back felt much better then it had in years a few days later so I went back again! Now I go three times a week and practice at home and I can proudly say that my back has been 90% better then it was before, I have been doing yoga for almost a year now! I had quit Karate when I was twenty one because of my lower back, not I'm back in karate with a vengeance at thirty five, and I'm going for my black belt in American Karate! I know yoga is awesome, nothing worked for me, I was doomed with a lower back that hampered me from doing anything remotely physical! Now I'm jumping around like an eighteen year old! Yoga for me has been a miracle.

George Jenkins is a man who came from humble beginnings and built an empire. Now, there is a new film documenting his life called Mister George.
Jenkins built his first store in 1930 in Winter Haven during the Great Depression. There are now more than 1,000 Publix stores across the southeastern United States.
Along with business savvy, Jenkins was well known for his generosity. He figured out that for a business to be successful, employees (or "associates," as Publix calls them) have to be bought in. So Publix makes them co-owners in the business.
The company is also a cornerstone of the community and donates millions of dollars to local worthy projects.
The film was produced by the award winning company NFocus, which is located in Lakeland. It is narrated by Tom Selleck.
Mister George premiers at the Polk Theater Friday, March 7.

What's going to be hot this spring
Locals and fashion writers predict what will be "in" the warm weather ahead.
What colors
Spring is noted for bright colors, and, this year will be no exception.
"There's a strong push for pastels," said Leslie Gouge, owner of Caroline's and Pitter Patter Children's Boutique. "We are coming off winter with its dark tones."
Bright colors will be seen for all ages and genders, said Kristin Flake, JCPenney store manager.
However, contrast, namely between black and white, is foreseen as an option for the spring, according to Style magazine's website's trend reports.
Mixed prints and pattern mash-ups will also be used to make clothes pop out.
"Everything has got a bit of play in it," Gouge said.
Floral prints will be seen on females, while both genders will see stripes.
Beading will be used to give some outfits a bit more edge, according to Glamour magazine.
As far as material goes, ruffles are back, and sheer material will be used to make light delight from the warmth.
The outfits
Shift dresses will be coming in for a formal or casual look, while sporty dresses will make an appearance with a more bold impact.
For career women, power suits will push in for a sophisticated look.
Tunics "come in strong" for tops, Gouge said.
Shorts are a staple for the time, and, this year, short shorts and Bermuda shorts are rumored to be the top choices.
Bright color, skinny denim jeans, mainly among teenagers, might be a pick, as well, Flake said.
As far as accessories go, a hat and/or scarf with a simple outfit will not be abnormal, Gouge said.
However, sometimes that might be a little different will come from the children's department.
"Bow ties are huge for young boys," Gouge said.
Flats and low heels are coming back in for that on-the-go comfort, according to Glamour.
"'90s pointy heels are back and have been modernized with everything from dainty ankle straps to cylindrical heels," the magazine's website said. "There will always be a moment for four-inch pumps ..., but these ladylike heels are such a nice option to have on hand."

Demon Hunter started their career with what is commonly accepted as their best album and one which the band will probably never top. After that the band changed their sound and with their new release, Storm the Gates of Hell, being their fourth album shows that they are now perfecting their changed sound.
Storm the Gates of Hell feels to be far more mature than the prior released by this hard Christian metal band. This claim is evident when prying open the flaps of the album cover you can read "Hell hath no fury at all". The fact that Demon Hunter is a Christian band can be felt more with this release compared to the past ones, however still not preachy.
The songs are well written and this time around even contain a few guitar solos that the songs on the past albums desperately needed. The "growl" are vocals are still loud and aggressive and when singing with clean vocals they have more melody and do a better job of dodging an emo sound. This release also has two extra songs that are omitted on the regular release that make the album end much stronger. The bonus DVD is short but does have a nice pay off and is worth the extra couple of dollars. Demon Hunter is easily showing that whether Christian or not, they are a force to be reckoned with and will continue to compete with some of the best metal bands on the planet.

Noble effort too much for Saints
7:24pm Saturday 20th October 2012 in Sport
West Ham 4 Southampton 1
Mark Noble's brace helped West Ham continue their fine start to life back in the top flight at the expense of fellow new boys Southampton.
The Hammers have adapted to life in the Barclays Premier League far better than the side that finished above them in the Championship and picked up their fourth win of the campaign today.
After a dour first half at Upton Park, Sam Allardyce's men came flying out of the blocks after the restart and netted twice in a three-minute spell.
Noble broke the deadlock with a 40-yard free-kick that drifted past debutant goalkeeper Artur Boruc, before captain Kevin Nolan tapped home a Yossi Benayoun cross at the back post.
Southampton threatened a comeback when Adam Lallana exquisitely fired home, but Noble netted a penalty before substitute Modibo Maiga superbly curled home to secure the three points.
West Ham looked the brighter side early on but Southampton earned the game's first corner with Jay Rodriguez inches away from directing home Jason Puncheon's loss cross.
It was one of several threatening moments by the visitors for whom goalkeeper Boruc was looking shaky.
The former Celtic man became the third different goalkeeper to start for Saints this season and had Andy Carroll to thank for not making the most of an awful clearance early on.
Boruc was playing behind a re-jigged backline in east London as Southampton juggled injuries and attempted to thwart West Ham's aerial threat.
Jos Hooiveld returned to the side as a result of the changes and had to be alert to clear a James Tomkins header off the line.
The Dutch defender saw his own header on goal saved by Jussi Jaaskelainen moments earlier and in the 21st minute Rodriguez put a snapshot just wide.
The £6million striker also fired a free-kick over as Saints tried to break the deadlock, with team-mates Maya Yoshida and Guly do Prado soon miscuing their own long-range efforts.
There were fears for Tomkins when he appeared to twist his knee, but he continued after treatment as West Ham upped the ante.
The home side were struggling to create any clear-cut chances, though, as Southampton went into half-time without conceding for the first time since their return to the Premier League.
However, the Saints defence was breached less than a minute into the second half.
Collins could not quite get a toe on Noble's floated 40-yard free-kick, but it bounced in the six-yard box and flew past Boruc.
The opener was followed moments later by West Ham's second after a poor Do Prado pass was not dealt with by Yoshida.
Benayoun won the ball from the Japan international and his low cross was met at the back post by Nolan, who tapped home from close range.
Only the fine reactions of Boruc prevented the Hammers captain making it three in the 61st minute as he ghosted in and directed a quickly-taken free-kick goalwards.
The save proved invaluable as Saints reduced the deficit two minutes later when Lallana turned beautifully to strike a half-volley past Jaaskelainen from close range.
The goal came thanks to the hard work - and wayward shot - of Rodriguez, who was replaced by Rickie Lambert immediately afterwards.
Saints' top scorer was surprisingly left out of the starting line-up and came on at the same time as Emmanuel Mayuka, although it was the former that made an immediate impact.
First the 30-year-old saw a 20-yard free-kick just go over, before heading a Nathaniel Clyne cross wide.
Southampton were threatening to quieten the home support but undid all their good work when Fonte handled as he challenged Carroll.
Noble fired home the resulting spot-kick, allowing the Hammers to coast from the 72nd minute onwards.
Mayuka tested Jaaskelainen as West Ham endured some nervy moments, but Maiga put the match out of sight three minutes from time, running at the Saints defence and sending a curling left-footed effort home.

I must admit I've not read the comments on the match thread, so I apologise if I repeat what's already been said by others.
Something has to change!!!! My first "suggestion" is for NA to maybe change his tactics, especially away from home. Obviously this attractive, attacking, passing game isn't working. We CANNOT be a worse team than Wet Spam because based on last season, we were the better team overall. Neither of us have improved more than the other (in my opinion). That means todays result is atrocious. How many goals have we conceded?????
My second suggestion would be, and I hate to say this, but f NA doesn't, can't or won't look a changing tactics, then maybe its about time he DID go. BUT, who would be better????
That's all from me for now, thanks for reading.

Whilst I have confidence and faith in NA and the team it's not blind faith.
The team is good enough but they aren't set up right. That's in NA's court.

If NA is not prepared to change this "I will not change our style" stance then maybe it time to say goodbye Nige.
Although I appreciate what you've done for our club this league is beyond you.
We are now officially laughing stock, but the happy clappers will probably find positives out of our season so far, time to get real boys and accept what is happening.

Just need a bit more steel even if we go one down, letting the next one in too soon before we have a chance to get one back. Apart from that, we are Europe's most entertaining team, always goals galore whever we go. Just ending on a positive.

Our best keeper on the bench, our best striker on the bench, Guly still on the pitch. Lallana's not captain material.

Actually, I'm just back from Paris. Watched the game on a live feed, then had dinner on a boat down the Seine.
I feel really angry about this result because so much was going right in the first half. Then, in 3 mad minutes, it was all undone. Even so, we got the goal and looked good for a result. Then ..........
It wasn't so much the 'bad' defending as the stupid handball by Fonte for the pen. 'Hero to villain.'
I could write far more but, just because - along with supporting my team - I'm behind Nigel and I support the decisions he makes, even if there are times I'd do differently, I don't see what there is to 'admit'.

Hurricane Bud lessened into a Category 1 storm as it approached Mexico's southwestern coast Friday, the National Hurricane Center said.
Mexican police found the bodies of 13 men and boys outside a gas station in the central state of Michoacan on Monday, authorities said.
Authorities in the southern Mexican state of Michoacán said Thursday that no suspects have been arrested in connection with the brutal murder last week of a U.S. teen and two of his Mexican friends.
Mexican authorities were counting votes Monday in a high-profile state election involving President Felipe Calderon's sister.
A Mexican mayor campaigning for the president's sister in a gubernatorial race was fatally shot in the southeastern state of Michoacan, the state attorney general's office said.
At least 14 people were killed in the western Mexican state of Michoacan -- including 10 slain during a shootout with soldiers, authorities said Friday.

Rafael Romo reporta que en México se formó un grupo que asegura combatirá a los narcotraficantes
A video purporting to be from a vigilante group whose goal is the eradication of the Zetas cartel from the state of Veracruz, Mexico, has surfaced on the Internet, but its credibility remains unproven.
A day after authorities announced that the body of a Mexican congressman was found along a highway in the coastal state of Guerrero, lawmakers from his political party called Monday for a swift investigation of his killing.
Mexican government officials plan to include the border city of Juarez in independence celebrations despite raging drug-related violence in the area.
Federal police announced Tuesday the arrest of a suspect in the kidnapping and killing last year of 20 Mexican tourists who were vacationing in the port city of Acapulco.
U.S. federal authorities arrested more than 70 people this week in the United States as part of what one official called a "successful, strategic and surgical strike" against a notoriously violent Mexico-based drug cartel.
If you are a Mexican cartel kingpin -- or even a second-tier player -- this is what you can expect if you are captured:
The leader of one of Mexico's most violent drug gangs is now in chains. CNN's Jonathan Mann reports.

A top drug lord has been gunned down in Mexico after two days of shootouts between armed forces and members of a criminal organization, a national security spokesman said Friday.

The toll climbed to more than 50 people killed in Monday's ambush on a Mexican federal police convoy and an unrelated prison uprising, authorities said Tuesday.
CARSON, Calif. -- Little-known fact: A lot of what passes as Mexican food in the United States is not really Mexican food. Go to Sahuayo, Michoacan, or Tepic, Nayarit, and try to order a Spicy Chicken Burrito or a Double Decker Taco.
The death toll from heavy floods and mudslides in Mexico increased Tuesday to 41, a government agency announced.
Heavy flooding in central Mexico in the past week has killed at least 33 people and left thousands homeless, the government said Monday.
Mexico's arrest of drug cartel suspects has become fairly commonplace. On Thursday, it was six suspected members of La Familia, based in Michoacan. A day earlier, it was a man identified as a top leader of the ruthless Zetas.
The Justice Department on Thursday announced 300 additional arrests in a four-year operation that it says produced nearly 1,200 arrests and seizures totaling 11.7 tons of illegal drugs.
Attorney General Eric Holder speaks about the latest illegal drug arrest.
Gunmen shot and killed 17 patients and wounded two others in a drug rehabilitation center in northern Mexico late Wednesday, the mayor of Ciudad Juarez said Thursday.

A federal judge ordered 10 municipal police officers arrested Saturday in connection with the slayings of 12 off-duty federal agents in southwestern Mexico, the attorney general's office said.
In response to a spate of attacks allegedly by a drug cartel, Mexico more than tripled the number of federal police officers patrolling the state of Michoacan, a government spokeswoman said.
Mexican authorities were searching Wednesday for two politicians accused of belonging to the Familia Michoacana drug cartel, which is blamed for killing more than 30 federal police officers in a series of attacks since Saturday.
Mexican police have arrested a "highly dangerous" U.S. citizen wanted on weapons charges, the Michoacan state attorney's office said.
In recent days, Michoacan, the home state of President Felipe Calderon, has become a flashpoint of violence in Mexico's deadly war against drug cartels. Since Calderon went after the drug cartels shortly after coming into office in 2006, more than 10,000 people have died across Mexico, about 1,000 of them police.
Twelve to 15 bodies showing signs of torture were found on the side of a remote highway in the Mexican state of Michoacan, the state attorney general's office told CNN en Español.
Two suspects have been arrested in this weekend's coordinated attacks in at least 10 Mexican cities that killed three federal police and two soldiers, federal authorities said.
Coordinated attacks in at least eight Mexican cities killed three federal police officers and two soldiers Saturday in what officials are calling an unprecedented onslaught by drug gangs.
More than two dozen Mexican public servants, including 10 mayors and several police chiefs, allegedly linked to illicit drugs and organized crime were arrested in simultaneous raids in Michoacan state, its governor said.
In the face of spiraling drug violence that has shaken the country, the Mexican army has taken a lead role in attempting to thwart the narcotraffickers. But its ability to do so has been hurt by a large number of desertions, government officials say.
CNN's Nick Valencia traveled to Mexico to get a first hand look at the drug violence in Tijuana.
Mexican authorities said they have arrested the leader of a drug cartel that set off two grenades during a public celebration in September, killing eight people and wounding more than 100.
Three men have been arrested for a grenade attack last week on a crowd of revelers in Morelia that left eight people dead and 106 wounded, officials said Friday.
Mexican police are testing a new weapon against widespread corruption in their ranks: home ownership
Eight people were killed and 101 were wounded in two explosions during a celebration of Mexico's independence day Monday night, a Mexican official said Tuesday.
Independence Day festivities are marred by a bomb attack that killed eight revelers. Authorities believe drug gangs are responsible
Once, drug gangs mostly fought each other, now they're joining forces to wage open warfare on the government
At least 13 performers have been murdered this year, in apparently drug-related bloodshed. Are musicians being targeted, or merely collateral damage in the drug war?

Cutting-edge tech on a dirtbag budget.
Want a playful, buttery freestyle twin that'll handle park sessions, giant spins off cat-track launchers, and your oversized boots? The Rome Tour Wide Snowboard features the all-new NoHangups hybrid profile, a flat camber with 3D rocker at the tip and tail that tracks straight and stomps landings but won't punish you for trying new tricks. Top that off with the QuickRip sidecut and pop-enhancing Bambooster rods, and you get an all-mountain freestyle twin that's super fun to ride at any speed, in any terrain.
The folks at Rome laid up the Reverb with tried-and-true wood laid tip-to-tail. Two zones of lightweight wood team up with poplar for smooth, predictable flex and loads of pop. Then they added Bambooster bamboo rods at the tip and tail to stiffen them up a bit and add even more pop to the mix. Rome finished off the Reverb with a tough, easy-to-repair extruded XTRD base.
- No-Hang-Ups flat hybrid profile
- True twin shape
