3.9/5 rDev +8%
1pt, 0.9oz bottle poured into a tulip stout glass. Date stamp says 1346 21:12 - whatever that may mean.
Appearance: Clear dark coppery orange. Tiny bubbles coming up through the beer slowly when held up to the light. Thin skin of white foam across the top with some occasional strands of lacing noted. Very nice color with this beer.
Smell: Herbal and mild buttery note with just a bit of skunk in there. Skunkiness goes away as beer warms up.
Taste: Malt with a hint of diacetyl butter and hop bitterness mixed together at the beginning, and finishing with a sharp bitterness. Definite English style hop bitterness here. A tasty example of an English bitter.
Mouthfeel: Good carbonation but a little watery underneath, although it does remind me of just about every English bitter I've ever had out of the bottle, so really spot on for style. I suspect it would be better on cask. So in other beers I might feel the mouthfeel was average, but in this case, it works well with everything else going on and is just right.
Overall / Drinkability: Quite drinkable and I think a good example of an English bitter. I could easily see myself having another one. Like all English ales needs to warm up for a bit after coming out of the fridge before you get all the flavors and the real character of the beer.

Poured into an imperial nonic a clear deep copper color with a nice looking 1/2 finger white head atop that held well.Bready and toffee malt aromas,light fruity ester and hard water roud it out,there is a light whiff of leafy hops.A little light in the mouth but probably right on for the style and abv.,subtle flavors of sweetish toffee and biscuit,fruity tones,that hard water,and a little more pronounced leafy hops in the finish.It's not bad it is what it is,I could drink alot of these over a long period of time in a session.

large bottle with dating, its fresh. Tasty English style ale. Medium body and nice smooth mouthfeel. Nice and malty, bready, yeasty and fresh tasting. Moderate hop bite to add balance and complexity to this brew. Completely English in its sensibilities. Doesnt overpower the ole taste buds, as some U.S. ales can do ( I love those as well dont get me wrong...)

A 500ml bottle with a BB of April 2013. Picked up some time back from a supermarket. The figure depicted on the label is 'Southwold Jack', a local icon and an emblem of the brewery.
Poured into a tulip pint glass. A deep orange-amber colour with medium carbonation. Forms a decent head of frothy off-white foam that lasts for a minute or two before collapsing to a patchy surface layer. Aroma of caramel malt with fruity yeast esters, stewed hops, faint grass/hay and a hint of sweetness.
Tastes of caramel malt with a dry finish. Notes of caramel, fruity yeast esters, stewed hops, mild grass/hay and a dry earthiness. A subtle bitterness upon swallowing. Mouthfeel is smooth and tingly, with light carbonation and good body. Slightly astringent, with an aftertaste of dry stewed hops and fruitiness.
A decent bitter, if a tad unexciting. Would be nice if the hop aroma was more prominent, but overall this is balanced and well-crafted. A easy-going ale that would be perfect for sessioning. Worth sampling if you see it.

Southwold Bitter pours a deep mahogany caramel amber color with a slightly hazed appearance. Head is thick and tan full of froth, with fine even lacing. Earthy, leather notes of complexity even some fruity grape notes more concentrated raisin even, with a hop nose of earthy herbal hops. Complex enduring flavors of butterscotch, caramel, blended with earthy herbal hops dominating eachother into submission to create an exhilarating layer of balance. Which exudes the palate into wanting more and more, a very easy to consume complex low in alcohol English bitter. Mouthfeel is complex with a hint of diacetyl but doesn't knock you down, rather it balances out other aspects that the beer has to offer. Medium bodied evenly carbonated this beer I'm sure is supreme on cask. Overall a enjoyable beer that I want travel to far for since I can get right down the street.

Considering the 3.8%ABV, this was very tasty, very nice hoppy flavour, and on the drier side of the scale, very nice citric hops and satisfying bitter finish, great session ale.

500ml bottle - surely this is the same offering as the 'Adnams Bitter', no?
This beer pours a clear medium golden amber hue, with two fingers of loosely foamy, dirty white head, which leaves some low shoreline lace around the glass as it quickly settles.
It smells of grainy caramel malt, thin apple orchard fruit, and some mildly bitter leafy, grassy hops. The taste is somewhat biscuity, grainy malt, with some breakfast butter character, a simple drupe fruitiness, and herbal, leafy hops.
The carbonation is generally quite sedate, just a bit of sass here and there, the body medium-light in weight, and haltingly smooth, a slight indistinct edge floating throughout. It finishes off-dry, barely, the grainy malt, apple skin fruitiness, and leafy hops conspiring and conjuring that particular effect.
A so-so bitter, not really up to the spec of a Fullers or John Smiths, with an off kilter, and overly dominant fruit nature. Good for one, I suppose, and then it's simply time for something else.

Gorgeous tarnished brassy hue with great clarity and 2 fingers of off white head that sticks to the glass. Bold, earthy and spicy hops on the nose with buttered burnt biscuit it underneath it. Toasted grains, roasted malt and a slight floweyness.
Light body. Big malt profile. Toasted grain on the flavor with a little bit of butteryness. Hops come through flavor wise but there's not a ton of bitterness. Lots of balance. A little thin and watery but it has good flavor, a nice balance of complex malts and noble hops. Bold for a session brew but the water like body takes away from it a bit.

Poured from the bottle into a 10oz pint glass at Churckey DC. From notes.
A real nice light tan off white head hits on the pour, and barely falls if at all. Dark chestnut brown body withe amber and orange sides and hues, and a fairly crystal clear appearance. Very good lacing on this drink as it clumps throughout at times while finishing.
Nose brings a soft malt body, and mostly semi toasted bready malts. Not much else, but really pleasurable and simple and solid.
Taste strangely on first quaff is a mild cheap tobacco, similar to cigarettes, but certainly tolerable. Chewy graham cracker malt and milk depth, with a fairly bitter hop finish, giving to an earthy feel.
Overall a real mellow and chewy classic bitter that is worth seeking out.

A: The beer is relatively dark and clear reddish amber in color with a light amount of visible carbonation. It poured with a half finger high beige head that died down, leaving lacing on the surface and down the sides of the glass and a ring of bubbles around the edge.
S: There are light but unique aromas of buttery malts and fruity yeast in the nose; these become a lot stronger as the beer warms up.
T: The taste has a light amount of bitterness along with hints of butter and toffee.
M: It feels a bit higher than light-bodied on the palate with some hints of chewiness and has a light amount of carbonation.
O: This beer is quite flavorful given its low alcohol content, which makes it rather sessionable.

Cask @ Papago Brewery
The beer a cloudless amber color as it sets in my mug, the head portly in size with the color a pleasing light tan and the texture creamy, lace forms a thin sheet to cover the glass. Nose is all malt, sweet and pleasant with the start lightly sweet, nice malt presence and the top light in feel to the palate. Finish is devoid of carbonation as one should expect, mild hop presence, quite dry aftertaste and quite reminiscent of Caffreys and Boddingtonss Cask beers, and a nice change of pace from the hearty IPAs and dark brooding beers I have sampled of late.

500ml Bottle: best before 30 Nov 2012, poured into an 'Old Speckled Hen' badged pint vase shaped glass on 22 Aug 2012.
Lovely looking beer: clean and clear body of true amber, on top a well formed head of white foam.
Malty nose and taste: toffee and semi-sweet molasses fill the mouth with flavour, rich for a 4.1% ABV beer. Talk about easy drinking, this is a session beer with a great taste and attitude.

JU welcomes back junior college Dolphins
Related Links
Historic Swisher Gymnasium welcomed some familiar faces Saturday as JU welcomed back players from the Jacksonville Junior College era and the 1964-64 team for a reunion during Homecoming.
The department hosted more than 20 former players who played for the Dolphins during the 1950's and 1960's prior to the school becoming a four-year school. The group enjoyed breakfast, a highlight video of the men's basketball program and took in practice for the 2010-11 squad.
Several member of the 1964-65 team returned to campus to celebrate the 45th anniversary of their trip to the NAIA National Tournament - JU's first postseason trip as a four-year institution. The Dolphins lost to the No. 1 seed in the first round of the tournament that season, who went on to win the national championship.
"This was a really special day to have so many people come back that laid the foundation for our program," said Director of Athletics Alan Verlander. "We appreciate everyone who came and look forward to them returning for a game this season."
At the end of the reunion, the former players' legacy was cemented forever on the walls of Swisher as JU raised banners for the 1950, 1953, 1955 and 1956 National Junior College Athletic Association tournament appearances, as well as the 1965 team's trip to the NAIA National Tournament.

Suffocation Biography
Suffocation is an American death metal band that was formed in 1989 in New York. The band comprises vocalist Frank Mullen, guitarists Terrance Hobbs and Guy Marchais, drummer Mike Smith and bassist Derek Boyer. Suffocation rose to prominence of death metal and created a blueprint for the genre for the 1990s with their 1991 debut album Effigy of the Forgotten and released six studio albums since its formation. The band's grindcore-influenced technical death metal style uses guttural vocals with a bottom-heavy guitar sound; complex, fast guitar riffs and drumming, and "sophisticated" sense of songwriting. Their debut, Effigy of the Forgotten, is considered a classic by most, topping the charts of many fans' "all-time favorites" lists. Also worth noting is their debut EP, Human Waste, which was the first official release on relapse records in 1991. The band went through a few member changes before briefly disbanding after their release, Despise the Sun, only to re-emerge in 2004 with the album, Souls to Deny. A video for the song, Surgery of Impalement, has been featured on such outlets as Headbanger's Ball and Uranium. In 2006, They released the self-entitled, Suffocation on Relapse. A videoclip was made for the song, Abomination Reborn. The song and (most of) the band was featured in a commercial for, appropriately enough, The History Channel's series, Dark Ages. In 2007, the band left Relapse Records. Their latest album, Blood Oath, was released through Nuclear Blast Records, with whom the band signed in September, 2008. There is a rumored concert DVD in the works, but contractual disputes and alleged theft of the source material have delayed the project.

Routes Sorted
L to R R to L Alpha
Fingerlocks and some awkward jamming are the name of the game. Would be one of Tahoe's best splitter cracks of its grade if it weren't so contrived. You can use the wall to the right most of the way for your feet making the route much easier. Staying off this wall makes it classic and hard. You get forced off the (stem) wall by the time you hit the crux but it makes it a whole lot easier. Endurance is the real crux had the right wall not been there. I don't know, seems a bit contrived. Still a really good "laser cut" splitter that is a challenge no matter how you choose to climb it.
Just to the left of Lean and Mean on Middle Spire. You'll know it because its the only splitter that goes up a dead vertical to overhanging wall at a slight (right) leaning angle.

Game wardens: Record deer was taken illegallyJanuary 29,2013By Patrick McArdle
STAMFORD - The Vermont Fish and Wildlife Department had good news and bad news for a local hunter in December.
The good news was that the large, trophy-antlered buck that Jim Smith, 47, of Stamford, had harvested in Stamford was the largest taken in Vermont in more than 20 years.
The bad news was that the buck was taken a day after the 2012 rifle season ended so instead of congratulations, Smith is now facing criminal charges for which he is scheduled to be arraigned in Bennington criminal court on Feb. 11.
In a press release, officials with the department said someone had witnessed Smith removing the 10-point buck from the woods on Nov. 26 and then tipped them off.
There was no record of the deer being reported so Vermont Sate Game Wardens Richard Watkin, Kelly Price and David Taddei conducted an investigation.
During an interview on Dec. 19, Smith admitted to killing the deer on the day after rifle season ended but said he had mistakenly believed the season was still open. The antlers, meat and hide were seized by wardens.
Smith has been cited to appear in court for taking a deer during the closed season. If convicted, he could be sentenced to 60 days in prison, lose his right to hunt, fish and trap in Vermont for up to three years and be fined up to $3,000.
Curtis Smiley, a lieutenant with the Fish and Wildlife's enforcement division and president of the Vermont Big Game Trophy Club, said the buck would have a Boone and Crockett score of 165 2/8 gross. The Boone and Crockett score, the standard for North American hunters, is based on antler size.
According to Keith Balfourd, marketing director of Boone and Crockett, the score described it would make it the fifth- or sixth-largest buck reported from Vermont since the scoring system began almost 100 years ago.
Vermont doesn't historically produce big-racked, white-tail deer and there are only 13 in Boone and Crockett's record books, Balfourd said.

How many paintings have you installed at Florida International University's College of Law and when were they made?
I've installed 6 paintings in the law school. They were made between 2000 and 2011.
Why did you choose to install the works at the College of Law?
An academic context is a great place to present my work as part of a serious discourse in which students and visitors alike can participate. In fact, I have 20 large-scale paintings currently being displayed throughout the various buildings of FIU's North, South and Miami Beach Campuses.
Why are the paintings so big?
They have to be.
How long did it take to make each one?
Between 6 months and 3 years.

|This year I finally got fruit on my pawpaw trees. They are about 7 years old and though they've had flowers for 3 years now in the spring, no fruit. But this year, I have fruit!!!
Now the question is - when do I pick it? They are about 3-4 inches long and green and hard. Does the fruit get soft, turn color, what?
Thanks for any info.
Follow-Up Postings:
Pawpaw is usually ripe towards the ending of september depending where you live, some varieties don't ripen until october. For the best flavor leave it on the tree until it softens, it may turn light green, or orangy color depends on the variety when ripe. I'm guessing you have a seedling.
Don't let it turn brown, eat it within a day or two after being picked.
You'll notice the fruit gets a bit soft when ready. you may pick it then or let it drop to the ground on its own.
|My father's old saw was after they were hit by the first frost. If you pick them too soon, they'll go from green to rotten without passing ripe. When they're ripe, they go from green to yellow, and I can "feel" when it's right as they soften a little like a pear does. Then the flesh should be sort of like a banana. In our area, Appalachian Ohio, you won't be picking Paw Paw until late September or October.

|They ripen here way before the first frost and are gone entirely a month before frost. They fall easily when ripe. Gently shake the tree if the ground is soft beneath it and the ripe ones will fall. Or just barely tug on them while wiggling sideways a bit to see if they detach easily.
|That is just a real good point to bring up. You can't go by the calender. You will be harvesting yours a lot sooner than we will be harvesting ours. All the more reason to be able to tell when they are ripe. The first year is always the hardest. Once you do it, you'll get a feel for when is 'just right'.
|I was asking this question last year, then the next day I went out to look at the Paw Paws and they were all gone! No, they were all on the ground. That's how I could tell...
- Posted by gonebananas 7/8 (My Page) on Sun, Jul 13, 08 at 10:26
|The other item I forgot to mention is they become a bit aromatic when they ripen, but you'd have to put your nose right up to them.
- Posted by softmentor z9/sunset13 CA deser (My Page) on Tue, Jul 15, 08 at 3:28
|from what I understand MOST varieties do not turn color. They should start to soften a little. test the softness like you would a peach or mango
- Posted by gonebananas 7/8 (My Page) on Tue, Jul 15, 08 at 19:15
|They change color (here anyway) but the difference is subtle and the color is never bright and distinctive even when fully ripe. Thus, as you recommend, use another characteristic.
|Yes, they change here too. Softmentor, your's dont?
- Posted by margie_stl_mo Z6a (My Page) on Sat, Jul 19, 08 at 9:03
|Thanks for all the great advice. Yes - these trees grew from seedlings - not any named cultivars. I got them from the Missouri State nursery way back, in a variety bundle they had for home gardeners. I was beginning to think they were all genetically the same so no fruit possible, so this is especially welcome. I'll keep watching them.
Another question - do the trees sucker a lot? There seems to be a small forest growing around the two original trees. I'm thinking of moving some of the smaller ones this fall and removing the rest to get some sun back in that area.
- Posted by gonebananas 7/8 (My Page) on Sat, Jul 19, 08 at 11:52
|They commonly rootsprout in the wild, though mine at home have not. The sprouts are notoriously difficult to transplant, but that is probably because people treat them as if they were easily transplanted. They don't come with many roots. As importantly, they (unlike most deciduous plants) don't grow roots in the winter. They are better transplanted in very late winter, not long before they will bud out. And treat them more like big cuttings rather than transplanted plants. Shade, good soil, moist. I'd start them in big pots for a recovery and grow-some-roots year in a partially shaded location.
|This may help clarify the color discussion above:
The outside of the pawpaw fruit does not change much from its original green when it becomes ripe.
The inside of the fruit, however, turns a golden orange-yellow when ripe, similar to ripe mango.
Beware that ripe fruit can rather quickly become over-ripe; when it does, the outside goes from green straight to black. (It doesn't turn yellow like a banana.)

|I just checked by two pawpaw trees, which had fruit for the first time this year. Tree #1 had a few fruits on it a couple weeks ago, but, now they have disappeared - didn't see them on the ground. Squirrels or ground hog? There was fruit on tree #2, so I picked one, which released quite easily, but doesn't feel ripe. I guess I'll wait a couple days and see if it ripens.
I know this is an old thread, but I appreciated the info that I found.

Animal, Vegetable, Miracle
by Barbara Kingsolver

Often that turned out to be ourselves as we learned to produce what we needed, starting with dirt, seeds, and enough knowledge to muddle through. Or starting with baby animals, and enough sense to refrain from naming them."

The capital of Canada is Ottawa, in the province of Ontario. There are offically ten provinces and three territories in Canada, which is the second largest country in the world in terms of land area.
While politically and legally an independant nation, the titular head of state for Canada is still Queen Elizabeth.
On the east end of Canada, you have Montreal as the bastion of activity. Montreal is famous for two things, VICE magazine and the Montreal Jazz Festival. One is the bible of hipster life (disposable, of course) and the other is a world-famous event that draws more than two million people every summer. Quebec is a French speaking province that has almost seceded from Canada on several occasions, by the way..
When you think of Canada, you think of . . . snow, right?
But not on the West Coast. In Vancouver, it rains. And you'll find more of the population speaking Mandarin than French (but also Punjabi, Tagalog, Korean, Farsi, German, and much more).
Like the other big cities in Canada, Vancouver is vividly multicultural and Vancouverites are very, very serious about their coffee.
Your standard Vancouverite can be found attired head-to-toe in Lululemon gear, mainlining Cafe Artigiano Americanos (spot the irony for ten points).
But here's a Vancouver secret only the coolest kids know: the best sandwiches in the city aren't found downtown. Actually, they're hidden in Edgemont Village at the foot of Grouse Mountain on the North Shore.
"It's actually worth coming to Canada for these sandwiches alone." -- Michelle Superle, Vancouver

[Intro: Styles P]
I mean... Sometimes I see things, I guess cause I'm a ghost I see ghostly things
Thought I saw something that wasn't there, but it was there...
There as far as the eye can see
(as far as I can see though)
There are shadows haunting me
(I see shadows)
There as far as the eye can see
(and I'm looking real far, even if I'm asleep)
There are shadows haunting me
(ain't that something?)
[Verse 1:Styles P]
Something in the shadows
Maybe it's the Pharaohs
Coming to spread the light, cause the vision's so narrow
Maybe it's the killa's in the cut, with the barrels
Getting high, but can't fly without the eye of a sparrow
Fatigued and fatigue ready for battle
My word could move herd like the cattle
Try to stay hard, life's fragile, meaning you could lose any moment
My cranium is like Damien's, no Omen
I don't bare the mark of the beast
Just the heart of the beast
Rally for 'em when it's dark in the streets
Just a ice cold nigga that be sparking the heat
Tryna make it through the struggle just to say "at the least,"
If they coming, tell 'em come now
Sunset, sundown
I don't put my gun down
And I ain't tryna run, clown
I keep something in the barrels
Fully loaded up knowing there's something in the shadows
[Verse 2: Styles P]
Something in the shadows, maybe its the reaper
Maybe its the devil trying to put me in the sleeper
Maybe its God trying to tell me that I'm deeper
I'll know soon, have faith in a goon
I broke date, mad years trying to race with the moon
If the sun give me energy
Why I pull my gun, on my enemies
And wait for nightfall to drink Hennessy
Cups of Courvoisier, times the same on this swatch
Or ??, unless you set your watch different
We got eyes, but our watch different
Be on the block different
Be on the low in the spot different
I got bars, but the Glock kicking
I'm in tune with the moon
And the wolves that howl at it
You could play the game if you foul at it
Tell the pigs it's a fair game
I get high, and kick my Nike Airs off in first class on the airplane
[Verse 3:Styles P]
I won't rest til the day I see the angel of death
And tell him "wish me the best,"
If I dont get it this life, may I get it the next
Never settle for less
Street nigga's say I did it the best, which is true though
Coke since the days of Menudo
Higher then Pluto
Something in the shadows, but I ain't got a clue though, (I got no clue)
I'm getting drunk off the booze
I'm getting high, just recording with 'Poose
Have dreams about the Lord and his crew
Or the devil and his boys
I have voices in my head, but I can never make the noise stop, (can't stop, can it)
They always singing on a carol
Far as they can see, know there's something in the shadows

Take that! Boxers win council battle
6:00am Monday 2nd June 2014 in News By Chloe Chapman
A BOXING club has won its battle to open on an industrial estate.
Gym bosses spent £5,500 revamping a derelict warehouse in Bowlers Croft, on the Cranes Industrial Estate, in Basildon, only to be told, in November, they had been refused planning permission.
Basildon Council said it was against its policy to allowbusiness premises to be used for leisure, because it could result in the loss of an employment site.
Coaches at Holland Shaw ABC, which was already open, lodged an appeal and took their fight to a Government planning inspector who has sided with them.
Richard Adams, one of six trainers now working at the gym, said: "It's brilliant we have finally got our planning permission and can get up and running properly. We didn't expect the process to take so long."
Former world champion Terry Marsh is one of the coaches training youngsters at the gym, which has the backing of the National Association of Boys' Clubs and the Amateur Boxing Association.
Mr Adams said: "Boxing teaches youngsters confidence and respect. In a fight you have got to have control, and that is what boxing is all about.
"It's a really positive things, and gets youngsters off the streets and learning new skills."
Holland ShawABC had been told by council bosses to look for alternative premises in the town centre, but rents and business rates proved too high.
Planning inspector Sheila Holden found the benefits of the boxing club opening on the industrial estate justified a breach of policy.
She said: "I have found an amateur boxing club of the type envisaged would not be a 'main town centre use', that requires a town centre location.
"I also consider the proposal would provide some benefits to the local community...
the change of use would give rise to a small loss of employment land, but that would not significantly reduce the availability of employment land in the borough.
"I conclude the benefits of the scheme would outweigh the loss of employment space."

By analogy, to type something incorrectly would be ""a slip of the fingers."
If you had no idea of playing off the more famous "slip of the tongue" phrase, I don't think you'd use the phrase at all. I don't think typos are thought of as "slips of the fingers" as a rule.
I think we would usually just say, "I mistyped that word" or something similar.
"My hand slipped" or "my fingers slipped" would normally refer to a lost grip on something. so that it accidentally fell.

Oak Creek - A 29-year-old Milwaukee man was arrested for breaking the mirror on another driver's car during a road rage incident Feb. 20.
According to the Oak Creek police report:
A driver called police after she unintentionally cut off a bicyclist while he was riding in the right lane of traffic in the 2000 block of West Ryan Road about 4:15 p.m. Feb. 20. The bicyclist followed the driver into the lot of Shell Gas, 2170 W. Ryan Road, where he confronted the woman about her driving. An argument ensued, and the bicyclist smashed the mirror on her car with his hand.
The bicyclist then attempted to get on a city bus at the Ryan Road Park and Ride. However, the driver and her husband, who was a passenger in the car, asked the bus driver to wait until police arrived.
When police arrived and questioned the bicyclist, he told police he believed he was almost struck by the woman's vehicle when the woman passed him in the right lane so he followed her to the gas station to confront her. When the driver disagreed that she had cut him off, the bicyclist got upset and punched the driver-side mirror on her vehicle, causing it to break.
He was cited for vandalism.

My mom knew I had problems, just not this many.
I woke up; the smell of decay was in the air, for I was in a funeral home. I was supposed to be rotting like the rest of the corpses in this building, but I was still alive. Don't ask me how, because I wouldn't even be able to explain to you why I'm here and, alive.
That's when everything hit me, I wasn't really inside a funeral home at all, I was laying down on my bed, in my black tank-top, and blue denim jeans. I was hallucinating, it wasn't really happening.
Yes, I am mentally crazy cant you tell? My mom said there was something wrong with me since the second I was conceived. She's right. I was never the "normal" one. I was never the one with a million friends, I even have a face book account and not even my mother will accept my request…I'm not really that freaky. At least, I don't think so.

---- — Every autumn, Mother Nature puts on a brilliant display of colors throughout the North Country, with leaves boasting bright yellows and vibrant reds and oranges.
Fall's show also marks the end of summer, reminding us that the chill of winter is on its way. During its peak season, the rich foliage never fails to surprise and delight residents and visitors as they take in the scenery during hikes, drives and bike trips through the Adirondack mountains.
This year, instead of venturing into the mountains to capture the season's beauty, Rob Fountain, Press-Republican photographer, decided to capture foliage in everyday places. He traveled through the Village of Rouses Point, Town of Chazy and into Plattsburgh in search of special spots we may miss on a daily basis.
View additional photos in a slideshow by photographer Rob Fountain with this article. Share your favorite fall foliage photos with us at www.facebook.com/pressrepublican.

Simple red white and blue sweatband. While I wear mine as a fashion accessory I would still recomend it as a sweatband if you wanted to wear it to work out.

I've read some reviews touting this product as the pinnacle of patriotic American sporting accessories. It ain't.Maybe you're a fashionista type, donning these with your Three Wolf Moon Sleveless Shirt and your best F500 American Flag Pants... strutting around the trailer park like a stuck up, carny Cassanova?Here's the problem, Jack. These aint' American. Anybody with a 5th grade Geography class under his belt recognizes this as the dang old French flag!! Or heck, even the flag of Luxemburg!! A mullet wearing, El Camino driving stud from the Netherlands would cut an impressive figure in these.Or possibly your Yugoslavians.I'm American. My flag has stars and stripes. And I don't take kindly to no Commie's trying to pass this off as Old Glory.That's about all I have to say about that.

Ok I know this is a very open ended question and there are a thousand different variables, but for those who have run a photography gallery, have you found it a worthwhile endeavor? I don't mean showcasing your work in an existing gallery, I mean opening your own gallery and running it as your business. I've had a very intriguing offer but I'm not sure if it is something I'm prepared to chew off as it would involve a whole career switch. I'm just looking for some general thoughts from anyone who has run something like this.

be prepared...good friend of mine did something similar and unless you have deep pockets or something else that is bringing in money, be prepared.
I say this with the utmost respect for both him and you. He did great and simply decided his family time and free time to pursue are was more important at his stage in his life. Now, where you are at, I have no idea esp. considering the "offer on the table." If it is nice, go for it! I had great times at his gallery with shows, lending a hand, meeting people, etc.
Best of luck!

What Shaun said. The world has changed and the image is not worth $ anymore to the consumer (and a gallery deals with consumers). I have a friend who owns a gallery in an uppity gallery town and he's barely scraping by. It's so sad. He can't even get people in the door with festivals going on. It used to be that wine would at least get you an audience but that's being cracked down on by the tyrants. And like all image based business, 1% of your time spent is dealing with those images. It's politics, schmoozing, stroking.

I go to a local art gallery every thursday night for the acoustic music jam session and potluck. It has become a community of artists, musicians and their friends meeting in the gallery for some fun. A five dollar admission charge keeps the lights on. This gallery always shows oil paintings, sculpture and photography. There are regular art opening shows as well. Some of us bring our cameras and practice our act on the performers and each other. We post to Facebook and PR the place so that everyone knows what shows are coming and they can see what they missed if they were not there. The musicians play for free and are happy to play for a receptive audience and try new material.

While this sounds like an amazing time, in the grand scheme of things this is not the way to run a profitable gallery. Most artists are not going to be buying gallery art.

Artist's helping artists is cool indeed ... but does it attract open wallets with discretionary income or project value or close sales?
Somehow the idea of a "potluck" and jam session gallery that runs as a self-sustaining, profitable enterprise doesn't quite gel from what I've seen. We've got one similar to that in my area, but it is being funded through a grant till it becomes self-sustaining ... I don't think it's gonna make it. Plenty of activity and smiles on event nights, but that activity doesn't translate into much in the way of $$$.
The artist mecca vibe just seems to attract more starving artists competing for the same $$$ with no way of really drawing in a discretionary income demographic ... i.e. how do you attract your target market?
Field of Dreams @ "If you build it ..." often times resonates within us. But I'm inclined to think that unless you have a plan for bringing them in, they won't come. And once they do come, will they buy unless you can sell or have something truly spectacular. I mean, even Ansel Adams has to work at perpetual promotion.
I'm inclined to think that the core of running a successful gallery is marketing and salesmanship. Without those in play, I fear it to become a self-funded exhibit rather than a successful business. Wishing all the best, but still looking at crack the code to putting other people's money into your wallet.

Setting up in a town or city with known collectors is almost essential, but if there are existing collectors there's likely already a gallery catering to them.
Collectors are who you need to both seduce with your ambience, and respect deeply for their being.
Most of the revenue I have seen through photo galleries has come from shadowy, very private collectors who are supporting and following the career arcs of talented emerging and existing artists - buying their Polaroid transfers, ambrotypes and the like.
A lesser amount of sales comes from cheaper works bought by 'randoms'.

Having had two galleries in past years, if you want to try it then do so.
IF..., you don't mind sitting around waiting for people to show up. Unless you are doing studio work in the back or custom framing you will spend most of your time waiting for folks to walk in the door.
Many 'look' with their fingers so you need to be ready with cleaning supplies and towels. Some decide to straighten the pictures on the wall - you have to watch for this so they don't drop a print. Little kids are not supervised by parents too often and get into mischief.
Then, will you show figure and nude work? Anything graphic that might offend some in the community? It can cause problems.
Will you have school groups coming through? This can be a good way to get to parents with money to spend. Working with local schools to visit art shows can be a good way to increase traffic and expose the work to those you want to come back. Showing the images of local school kids and groups brings in many who would otherwise never set foot in a gallery.
How do you deal with the bums, homeless and wino types?
Small works that can 'walk off' can cause problems - so insurance covering exhibits has to be upfront with all those who put work in the gallery. WRITTEN contracts area must. You have to specify drop off and pick up times and hold to them. As soon as you get sloppy you start getting problems here. How do you handle sales - AFTER the showing? Folks who saw the image on your walls, contact the artist and wait til later to buy it so they can get a deal and avoid paying your commission? If you can't figure out how to handle this you will lose too many sales - but at times they may well be customers you are better off without.
Contests bring in a lot of folks. Recurring contests with a particular theme over a few years get known and garner visitors and entries both. A small fee for entry helps defray costs - and can help pay an outside juror who adds a bit of interest to them at times. Doing something highlighting local happenings or locations, in conjunction with the Chamber/schools/business/government can pay big dividends. Any kind of community involvement can mean more visitors and more sales.
One major help is a good mailing list. Well designed mailers, postcards and the like going out to clients, friends of the artists and other galleries and associations can pay off. Make sure they are well designed, clean and feature your logo/location prominently. If you can make them consistent so they are recognized as coming from your gallery every time they go out it will pay in the long term.
Good luck - it is a lot of work, long hours and often low sales.

Bernard Baruch's 10 Rules of Investing
- Joshua M Brown
- February 17th, 2013
You want someone to emulate?
Bernard Baruch (August 19, 1870 – June 20, 1965) was the son of a South Carolina physician whose family moved to New York City when he was eleven year old. By his mid-twenties, he is able to buy an $18,000 seat on the exchange with his winnings and commissions from being a broker. By age 30, he is a millionaire and is known all over The Street as "The Lone Wolf".
In his two-volume 1957 memoirs, My Own Story, Baruch left us with the following timeless rules for playing the game:
"Being so skeptical about the usefulness of advice, I have been reluctant to lay down any 'rules' or guidelines on how to invest or speculate wisely. Still, there are a number of things I have learned from my own experience which might be worth listing for those who are able to muster the necessary self-discipline:"
1. Don't speculate unless you can make it a full-time job.
2. Beware of barbers, beauticians, waiters — of anyone — bringing gifts of "inside" information or "tips."
3. Before you buy a security, find out everything you can about the company, its management and competitors, its earnings and possibilities for growth.
4. Don't try to buy at the bottom and sell at the top. This can't be done — except by liars.
5. Learn how to take your losses quickly and cleanly. Don't expect to be right all the time. If you have made a mistake, cut your losses as quickly as possible.
6. Don't buy too many different securities. Better have only a few investments which can be watched.
7. Make a periodic reappraisal of all your investments to see whether changing developments have altered their prospects.
8. Study your tax position to know when you can sell to greatest advantage.
9. Always keep a good part of your capital in a cash reserve. Never invest all your funds.
10. Don't try to be a jack of all investments. Stick to the field you know best.
Baruch would later go on from Wall Street to Washington DC as an advisor to both Woodrow Wilson and to FDR during World War II.
Later, he became known as the Park Bench Statesman, owing to his fondness for discussing policy and politics with his acquaintances outdoors.
He lived til a few days shy of his 95th birthday in 1965. You could do worse than to invest and live based on these simple truths.

Professor Michelle Alexander's new book "The New Jim Crow" is a monumental, well researched piece of work that presents documented facts in down to earth English about the mass incarceration of Black people within the United States' national concentration camp system. At one point in "The New Jim Crow," Professor Alexander presents evidence that more Black people are enslaved behind bars today than were enslaved on the plantations in 1850, before the Emancipation Proclamation was signed.

When the Occupy San Quentin rally ended, San Rafael police followed us to the Richmond Bridge. I don't know if it was Jabari Shaw's orange CDCR jumpsuit that kept them wondering – Is he an escapee, one of ours? – or if it was the sheer magnitude of fearlessness represented by women like Kelly, a former prisoner who would not let her traumatic experience silence her. One brother got so full looking at the guards on the other side of the gate watching that he looked like he was going to leap the gate and hurt someone as he recalled the violations of his person over and over again. Members of All of Us or None dropped everything to embrace him when he left the stage.

October is Maafa Commemoration Month. The term Maafa refers to the Black Holocaust, that period when African people were stolen and traded in the greatest, most widespread cooperative economic venture to date, which resulted in the displacement of human beings as commodities. The Kiswahili term Maafa extends that definition of loss and trauma, that is, PTSD or post-traumatic slave syndrome – the flashbacks, both conscious and unconscious, reoccurring instances of the atrocities 150 years after the end of slavery which have direct association to the brutality of chattel slavery.

The Hunters Point Rebellion, touched off Sept. 27, 1966, 45 years ago today, by the police murder of Matthew Johnson, 16, was put down after only 128 hours with massive force.

Minutes after the outrageous police killing of 19-year-old Kenneth Harding a stone's throw from my home and office, I joined the crowd and for two hours listened to the witnesses, shared the anger and echoed the calls for unity. Let us demand the right to "own and operate and control the economy of our community," as Brother Malcolm advised. Now – right now – is the time for us to prove that it's not the police, it's not the prison guards or the big developers who have the power to impoverish and enslave us and drive us off our land. The ultimate power belongs to the people, and we will use it.

It can be daunting. And/or fleeting. If you head a big powerful union where there are no alternatives, The Man (the executives who contract with the union for the services of its workers) quivers when you walk by. What if you run the loading dock union? Who else is strong or dumb enough to stand beneath huge, heavy, rotting payloads, which must be refrigerated, to load them onto the platforms of Teamster trucks to be hauled away to the Safeways and Krogers of the world? If you ever stopped work, all of that commerce would… die. And the global economy would find itself crippled. That's the big fat power side of running a union.
The other side can be ugly. Famous cases all over the land of WalMart where the company came into a small, financially-strapped town with the promise of tons of jobs for the locals. New shopping center. Lots of business activity as shoppers from 50 miles all around are drawn in. Then a yokel decries that WalMart isn't paying enough to its workers. The yokel gets the would-be workers to form a "sit-down strike" – that is, they just… sit down. And do nothing. A week later, WalMart announces that it is not going to open its store; it will leave the area and instead move 15 miles down the road to another cash-strapped small town that really does need the jobs. In the meantime, the original town of WalMart's choosing goes fully bankrupt. The yokel who called the strike in the first place is tarred and feathered and is now a bank teller in Nairobi.
And there's a third side to the power – technology. Cashiers have threatened for a long time to call strikes. Finally, the various retail stores under their own pressures from Amazon and other e-commerce players explained that they can not survive as businesses paying cashiers $38 an hour. So they created what are basically ATM's for checkout purposes. They only account for about 2% of purchases today but are a shot across the bow of the boat of the cashier's union, telling them they'd better play nice.
