Author Harmeet Singh Mission Statement
I asked Harmeet Singh, the author of the Warrior Princess series how he became interested in Sikh history and its illustrious women warriors, what inspired him to write their stories, and about his future goals. I share his mission statement with you below:
When [my daughter] was growing up and started to go to preschool, she was always interested in listening to Cinderella, Snow White, and other fictitious princesses stories. I was always wondering what I could do to have her show similar, or greater interest, in reading the stories of Sikh History. We have a lot of real princesses whose stories aren't documented, or even if they are, it is not for small kids. so I decided to write a book for her, to teach her the story. She loved the simple language and presentation of the story. So I started writing more.
My goal is to provide kids with enough tools for them to learn Gurmat and Gurbani in a very interesting, and exciting, way for them. I am working on researching other stories about Sikh women (as there is no research, or documentation available) and then also working on games as well. We already have a Jigsaw puzzle available on Mata Bhaag Kaur ji - Harmeet Singh

2.63/5 rDev -8%
A very light style beer. Easy drinking and would be refreshing on a hot day and easy to knock back a few however the flavour leaves me wanting more. Not much hop aroma and flavour a little indiscreet. Compared to their other popular beer which I enjoy this was a somewhat disappointing purchase for a craft beer...

A - Pours a pale yellow colour with white frothy head that dissipates quickly
S - Slight floral aromas but a little metallic and grainy. Pretty ordinary.
T - Grainy, slightly sweet malt with citrus lemonade like finish , more like a shandy
M - Light bodied and medium carbonation
O - Pretty bland non interesting beer. Would be ok for the ladies on a hot summers day but thats about it.

A: Pours a pale yellow color with a fizzy head that fades to bits of lacing.
S: Aroma is a bit musty with some malt sweetness and some grain.
T: Taste of malt sweetness and some fruit in the background. Mild bitterness with a fairly clean finish.
F: Light body, quite smooth and pretty bland.
O: Reminds me of a typical non-offensive Euro Lager.

Pours a 100% clear straw colour. Dense white head looks good but doess not stay.
Aromas of doughy bready malts. Not much going on.
Taste in to straight into Helles territory - bread, sweet malts. Little hops. Difficult for me to be objective as I thought Euro/Aussie lager when purchased - not keen on Helles. Dough flavours dominate after short while.
Mouthfeel crisp but medium bodied.
Do I review to style? Endless question ... it's just dull. On palate and in profile.

A- Pale straw colour with a 2 finger white head that retains reasonably well. Furious carbonation. All in all, looks pretty cool.
S- Citrus and a slight metallic funk. Not a lot going on at all.
T- Well, not exactly what I was expecting to be honest. Malts are there, but the hops dominate. Unfortunately, there is a grainy aftertaste which is not too welcome bit otherwise, not bad.
M- Watery and carbonated. Carbonation sits nicely however and the thin body fits the style well. Can't complain too much, I guess.
O- As far as Australian macro-lagers go, you could do a lot worse than this. There is, thankfully, at least some taste to this and the drinkability is high. This is by no means a great beer, but compared to certain beers- Carlton cold- I'll have this any old day of the week.

Pours gold with a large, lasting head.
Nose shows big grassy and spicy hops with little else noticeable.
Some bready malt shows as a flavour, supported by the grassy hops. Falls flat quickly after that though.
Body feels quite watery, carbonation is too high.

Unobtrusive is the word that came to mind on sampling this.
Overall I thought it dull.The malts have a sweet cloying quality that takes any bite out of the palate.So this means it is not particularly sharp and refreshing.
It looks ok , albeit quite pale, and doesnt offend at all , but for me a lager needs to have an edge that can tolerate some chill , so that the mouth and mind are revitalised .
This just doesn't do it

2.45/5 rDev -14.3%
Chilled bottle poured into a hexagonal pint glass.
Dullish amber body with a very slight showing of haze. Thin white head quickly dissolves rapidly thanks to a lively carbonated an effervescent body. Not much if any lace holds on.
Aroma immediately delivers up a blend of fresh hops and sticky malt flavor. Definite grain and fresh grassy aroma with citrus elements, that matches the status quo but doesn't push boundaries or breaks records.
Taste falls way short of the aroma in its complexity, which is fine when the taste is fresh and bold, but this is not. The taste is rather two dimensional and comes off like a poor version of a wit beer.
Stringy thin body with medium degree of carbonation. Dull start and an equally dull drying finish. It almost has the feel of a cold flat pale ale.
To be constructive though I would say that the nose is in the right direction but it all falls to pieces in the mouth. Would have been much better with a dominant malt or hops flavor with a fresher finish.
For such a flooded category this one from Stone & Wood just seems rushed and half arsed.

Pours a clear gold colour, nice white head, quite dense. Sinks quickly not helped by a slow bead. Clear body, not a lot of lace. Decent lagery appearance.
Smells lagery with crisp hops and light cereal grain, yeah corn and rice on there. Nice citric twang from the hops; nothing special at all, but certainly not too bad.
Taste is reasonably flavoursome. Light grain on the front with pearl barley and rice notes. Gets hoppy on early mid, grassy and herbal with a hint of fresh sage and wheatgrass as well. Bit of grain on the back had an unfortunate residual effect, slight cereal twang mars an otherwise crisp finish. Nice and bitter but lacking on the front and that slight sweet taste hanging around the back is unwelcome.
Quite a brash and effervescent mouthfeel. A bit much.
I wouldn't want another of these beers, but I can see it suiting the purpose after a long session in the surf at Byron.

Fizzes when I open it, almost frothing and gushing, but it just forms some premature head in the bottle. Pours a very pale golden colour, with a slight haze from sediment. I must say, it's very nice to see a bottle-conditioned lager. Head is minimal, despite the fizzing entry, and carbonation is rampant. Not bad.
Nose is dry and crisp, with some Euro lager grassiness, and a lilt of faint citrus. Very clean and quite fresh. It's very suitable for the style at least, even if it's not particularly forthright.
Palate is a little more disappointing, however, leaving a void, if crisp entry, followed by a welling sweetness of grassiness on the back, like wet lucerne. Finish is flat. Feel in general is a bit jarring, with crisp carbonation on the fore, which dances right away to the back, leaving nothing on the finish.
It's pleasant enough, but not particularly interesting. Given their Draught Ale is such a pleasantly light but quaffable beer, I feel like they don't need this one in their range at all. Only mediocre.

Appearance - 2.0
Poured a thin layer of white head that quickly disappeared, leaving a headless, hazy golden body (the beer is unfiltered).
Smell - 3.0
Smells quite raw and natural, bready malt and grain and a tart, slightly fruity note.
Taste - 3.0
Much as above, it is a pretty ordinary lager made better by not being filtered. Bready malt backbone, moderate bitterness, lightly fruity and somewhat tart.
Mouthfeel - 3.0
Light to moderate carbonation, very smooth, though not as light and crisp as a pale lager ought to be.
Drinkability - 4.0
A good lawnmower beer, should make decent summer drinking.
A decent enough lager, but pretty ordinary for a craft brewed beer.

A - Clear mid-golden colour with a 2cm white head that falls fairly quickly leaving a touch of lace.
S - Some grainy sweetness and light herbal/grassy notes.
T - Grainy sweetness also in the taste along with the herbal/grassy touch.
M - Light bodied, medium to high carbonation, hint of bitterness.
D - I wouldnt bother again but I suppose its OK for what its supposed to be.

This pours a golden honey colour. Tiny head that quickly disappears. Looks dead.
Aromas are quite muted but a touch of lemon in there. Some graininess.
Grains and lemon again on the palate.
Medium bodied.
A very average euro lager type beer. I expected something a bit better. Still I'd be more than happy to be sitting on the grass at the top pub in Byron drinking it.

Best by date: March 2010. Hmmm. This beer is getting a bit of a bad rap I reckon. This isn't the freshest example of this beer I've had but still...it is what it is. A pale lager with good medium carbonation a touch of floral, cereal like notes on the nose with a soft malt kick and low bitterness. A little German pils like perhaps? Exciting? Not really. Well made? Yup. Good summer quaffer and much better than the other lagers next to it on the shelf. Wish it wasn't in green bottles though.

2.15/5 rDev -24.8%
Pours a clear straw colour with a thin white head that dissipates quickly to a patchy film.
Skunky aroma with a hint of lemon sneaking through. A touch grainy. Not happy.
A fairly lifeless lager with skunky notes. A hint of citrus and little to no malt flavour. Slightly sweet but on the whole uninspiring and disappointing. Average, crisp lager finish.
A medium body and vibrant carbonation work here but this is heavier than most common lagers.
This is just a pale lager designed to grab the Heineken crowd. It doesn't work for me and unfortunately for Stone & Wood, if you are going to put your beer in green bottles, I am going to cut absolutely no slack when the beer is skunked.

Drunk at Transport in Melbourne.
I summary, seemed to carry Euro lager traits.
The green bottle is a bit trendy. You could be forgiven for thinking this was a Stone's ginger wine product.
Beer is delicate, subtle, and complex. There are some spicy, zingy notes to it, but a good balance.
Bit light in body.

Looking at this beer it doenst look appealing at all it comes in a green bottle with a lifeless looking sticky label on the front and side which tells you nothing about the beer just only its ABV,anyways this beer pours a crisp yellow colour with average carbonation which leaves a half finger head which quickly dissapates to nothing within seconds,it smells really grainy with some weak hop notes but very grainy the mouthfeel is thin and unrewarding it really does taste like someones homebrew,there is still some little carbonation going in the glass but the beer does need more as it tastes a little flatish for my liking of the style i mean it is easy drinking if your not really into beer and i definately wont be buying it again thats for sure.

TOLEDO, OH (Toledo News Now) - Four suspected crook have been indicted Wednesday for cheating at the Hollywood Casino. Three are from the Northwest Ohio area and one is from Michigan.
A test run of the new casino in Columbus took place Wednesday and its grand opening set for Monday.
The Ohio Casino Control Commission said they are prepared to deal with people who cannot play by the rules.
"They get away with it by being deceptive at the poker tables within the casinos, it's just not noticed maybe sometimes, where it may be noticed by surveillance or gaming agents in the casino," said gaming agent with the Ohio Casino Control Commission Doug St Clair.
One of defendants is being charged with four counts, another with six. All four suspects are accused of cheating at poker tables.
"The methods that the current people who were indicted were very unsophisticated, they were basic pinching and/or capping of bets and that's either a reduction in a losing bet some or part of their wager or it's a capping where they actually cap a winning bet to increase their profits," said St. Clair.
With the opening of the Hollywood Casino Columbus right around the corner, officials said they is not much they can do to prevent cheating.
"I'm not sure we'll be able to stop it. Our job is to preserve the integrity of gaming in the state of Ohio and that's what we've been trained to do and that's what we get paid to do so our job is to make sure this is a safe place where there is no cheating that's going to be tolerated in the casino," said St. Clair.
"Some of these dealers look for some signs, that we also look for, and then they will alert the pit boss supervisors, who will then in turn alert surveillance and then us, and then we'll monitor the situation and determine whether or not there's an actual cheat going on," said St. Clair.
The Ohio Casino Control Commission said their ultimate goal is to keep all casinos a safe place to gamble.

The rapid firing of several small farts, that when done correctly, sounds quite similar to a small mouse riding through the house on a motorcycle. Putt putt putt putt putt!
Mother: Um, Junior... do I hear someone passing a series of popcorn farts?
Junior: No Mother, that's just a little mouse riding through the house on a motorcycle.

The Herald Bulletin
ANDERSON, Ind. —
In a performance that lends a whole new meaning to "dominant," Pendleton Heights left the Madison County Golf Tournament field in its wake Saturday.
The Arabians posted five of the top six golf scores en route to a 293 and a repeat of the county golf title.
"We actually are seven or eight deep," said PH coach Jim Phillips. "Lapel didn't play well today. I thought it was doing to be closer. But our goal is to win the county. It's starting to get warmer and we're starting to play better."
The Bulldogs placed second with 321 and Anderson was third at 350.
PH's Colin Proctor posted the top score, a 35-37-72, for medalist honors, just ahead of the 38-35-73 carded by Rylan Denney. Tyler Meyer had a 36-38-74 and Zack Forrer 37-37-74. Trevor Denney had a 37-39-76.
"We're all playing well right now," said Proctor. "Zack played really well and Rylan has played well all year."
Proctor was a bit less excited about his own play.
"I am glad I won, but I'm not happy with the way I played," said Proctor, who is going to Illinois when his prep career is completed. "I had a double-(bogey) on No. 6 and I lost interest."
The top six players are named All County and the only one to get that honor who didn't ride in the PH team bus was Lapel's Tanner Watkins. Watkins posted a 36-39-75.
Even though there is still a conference championship to be contested on Saturday at Shelbyville, there is also the sectional next month at Purgatory Golf Course.
"I am happy with 293 and would take that the rest of the way," said Phillips. "But I know we left some shots out there. I saw Colin make a double. We can play better. We want to get out of the sectional and then play in the state as a team."
The second best non-Pendleton Heights score also came from the Bulldogs as Mitchell Richardson posted a 38-41-79.

Golden color with a thick two finger head with good retention, especially considering it is a Pilsner.
Grainy malty aroma with predominant notes of hay and honey.
Flavor of sweet pale malt well balanced with grassy hops, yeast, hay, mild soap and grains. Dry aftertaste with a medium bitterness. Interesting that the aroma practically did not indicate any decent hopness, but you can clearly fell it its flavor.
Light to medium body with good carbonation.
Good Pilsner, a bit too much hay for my taste, but with a nice herbal hopness.

Council passes new Payday and Title Loan ordinance
Payday and title loan businesses in El Paso, which offer short-term, high-interest loans, will now have to follow new rules.
City council passed an ordinance Tuesday that will change the way they do business starting this summer.
The concern is that those types of businesses contribute to the cycle of poverty, leaving some falling behind on payments and in holes that are sometimes impossible to dig themselves out of.
"We want their money. We want their capital. We just want them to be fair," said Dallas City Councilman Jerry Allen. "That's all there is to it."
Allen came to El Paso to speak in favor of an ordinance to set new rules for payday and title loan lenders, one similar to the one already approved in Dallas, Austin and San Antonio.
"It's very, very, very important that we send this message as cities that we will no longer stand aside and watch our people being taken advantage of," Allen told Council.
Here are the new rules:
-The new ordinance will limit payday loans to 20-percent of the borrower's monthly income
-Limit auto title loans to 3-percent of their annual income ...
-Or 70-percent of the value of the vehicle, whichever is lower.
-Require lenders to register with the city ...
-Limit the number of installments to four and rollovers to three ...
-Require lenders to provide financial counseling to borrowers.
"We're here to defend ourselves from the slanderous words," said Benny's Pawn Shop owner Saul Frank. "People are telling us we are predatory lenders, that we loan to the poor."
The debate lasted nearly three hours and featured passionate arguments on both sides.
"For better lack of words, it's almost like a drug dealer," one concerned citizen said. "These people need to maintain these loans just to be straight, just to be normal."
"The cities do not need to bother with the ordinance," said Mike Brown, who came to speak out against the ordinance. "This is a matter that should be left to be handled at the state level."
Even a local priest chimed in, telling stories of members of his church falling into deep debt with payday and title loans.
"I don't know about these payday loan lenders," said Father Pablo Mata. "I don't know about their ethics. So I really question them."
"Everyone talks about the fact we're predatory and we're taking advantage of these customers when they come in," said John Bloss of FastBucks. "You take that away, where they gonna go? Is the church going to pay when they are in need? Are you going to pay out of your own pocket?"
Only city representatives Eddie Holguin and Carl Robinson voted against the new ordinance. Both were concerned that the city could be sued.
The first payday loan lawsuit has already been filed here in El Paso by community activist Carl Starr.

Each day, for more than three decades, Frankie Kirk has been feeding film at the Radford Theater and projecting motion pictures for the people who live there.
"I have people that say you know, I set up so and so when we came to the movie theater, our first date was here together," said Kirk.
But Kirk, who has worked just about every job in the business will soon play his last picture, and the credits will role on his career.
His lease is set to expire on April 30th and he plans to retire. A pair of local filmmakers recently started an online campaign to raise money to buy the business.
"This is just about keeping history, and if it doesn't happen it's going to be sad and I thought to myself you know, better to try and not be able to raise the money, than to not try, because not trying is failing," said Angela Caldwell.
Caldwell and her husband Joe, are even cutting commercials as part of the Third Act Project," as a reward for top donors. They are asking for $150,000 to buy the business, upgrade to digital equipment, and renovate the theater.
"Keep it going so that we can keep the low prices, we can keep the popcorn, we can keep everything the same. We want to just be able to streamline it and make improvements," said Caldwell.
The building owner, Jeff Price, says he has spoken to a handful of prospective buyers, and wants to work with the new owners to keep the theater alive. As for Kirk, he is working on his next act.
"I'm used to coming here every day for 30 years, and I'm going to have to take a couple of weeks to figure out a new routine," he replied.
But as the curtain closes on his career, he is backing the Caldwell's, and anyone else who would like to preserve the silver screen at the Radford Theater.

A Texas Rangers fan who leaned over a railing while trying to catch a ball tossed into the stands by Rangers outfielder Josh Hamilton has died, according to Nolan Ryan and the Dallas Morning News. The young man simply leaned a bit too far and was in an awkward position when he went over the railing. He didn't fall particularly far, but he fell into a very tight space between the railing and the outfield fence. He reportedly was taken from the stadium on a stretcher.
"We are deeply saddened to learn that the man who fell has passed away as a result of this tragic accident. Our thoughts and prayers are with his family."
Rangers manager Ron Washington, meanwhile, talks about his reaction and how Hamilton appears to be doing:
It's always difficult when someone loses their life. Our prayers and thoughts go out to their family. It's sad. It's very sad."
On how Josh Hamilton is doing? "Josh is fine. Outward he's fine. I guess he's got to deal with it in his own way."
It has been almost exactly a year since another Rangers fan fell from the club level of the Ballpark in Arlington and down to the lower level. That fan, who survived, was lunging after a foul ball.
That this young man died while leaning for a ball is, obviously, a tragedy. The practice of intentionally tossing balls into the stands is as old as time, but one thing that's clear, from incidents like these and from many incidents of fan interference throughout baseball, is that when balls fly in the direction of fans, they often act instinctively. That's natural, or something like it, and sometimes it has awful results.

Casey Hess opened Meridians As You Wish Clothiers in early December with help from her mother and sister in Boise and a friend who lives in Emmett.
Hess, the managing owner and sole employee for now, custom-designs clothing and does alterations by hand at the shop.
Our goal is to fill in the gap between the picture a customer sees in their head and the choices available in the current marketplace, she says. We encourage our customers to bring in pictures of different design elements they would like to see in their finished garment.
Say a woman wants a wedding gown that incorporates parts of her mothers or grandmothers dress. Hess makes that happen.
The Meridian resident worked for several years as the alterations manager for a national wedding gown retailer. She wanted to go out on her own. So she used savings and a business line of credit to open As You Wish Clothiers.
Q: What led you to open the business?
A: I have been sewing since I was 8 years old. Being from a family of women who sewed, it just seemed natural. Around that same time, I got a Fashion Plates toy as a gift, and I still remember making paper dolls in every conceivable combination of blouse and skirt regardless of how unlikely it was that a woman would wear a peasant blouse, running shorts and roller skates at the same time. So, growing up, I would make clothes for myself and as gifts for family members. Then, when I went to college, I decided to study fashion design and patternmaking, in the hopes of eventually opening my own shop, never wanting to be a designer for a big design house. And now here I am.
Q: What challenges have you had?
A: I have worked mostly with large corporations and therefore was unaware of some of the behind-the-scenes things that must be done in order to legally start a business and occupy a retail location. Luckily with the assistance of friends and family members, and a lot of research on the Internet, we have been able to get everything taken care of.
Q: What sets your business apart from its competition?
A: Unlike traditional wedding gown and formal retailers, who either have samples of styles available to order or have gowns available off-the-rack, our customers will be an integral part of the design process from the original drawing to finishing details.

Adults can help children cope with traumatic events.
1. Listen.
Listen and empathize when children express their concerns or fears. Create a safe and confidential atmosphere in which children can discuss their fears, concerns and anxieties. Acknowledge the frightening parts of the event. Avoid being indifferent or denying the seriousness of the situation to the child. Statements such as, "Don't worry, everything will be okay" or "Just forget about it" do little to help and may communicate to the child that their feelings are not understood.
2. Reassure.
Children need comforting and frequent reassurance that they are safe.
3. Help children to recognize and express their feelings in an acceptable way.
When children are engaging in behaviors that are not healthy or adaptive such as aggression, acting out or withdrawing, adults can both recognize the feelings that underlie these behaviors and also help children identify and label these feelings. For example, if a child is clinging to his parents, a parent could say something like, "It seems that you are afraid something might happen to me; is that what you are feeling?" The parent may suggest ways children might handle the fear more appropriately, such as talking about it, drawing pictures, or writing about it in a journal.
4. Provide consistency and routine to the greatest extent possible.
Although many families and schools directly affected by a traumatic event may not be able to return to routines that were in place prior to the event, they can develop some consistency and routines in their day-to-day living. Engaging in group problem solving on how to handle these stressful times gives everyone involved a voice in decision-making and increases their ownership of the solutions to the problems.
5. Involve children in actions that help others.
Involving children in actions that are helpful to others can give them some sense of control over what is happening. Activities may include collecting money and/or food for those who are in need; performing a task such as helping others clean their homes or yards; or helping more with routine chores. They could visit nursing homes. There seems to be special bonding between the young and elderly that is very healthy and healing for both. They could donate clothing they have outgrown, or even some of their favorite clothes or toys to those who lost theirs.
6. Reduce demands.
Trauma and stress often cause reduced energy and fatigue, so children and adolescents may need reduced demands during these difficult times. For example, parents might tolerate more irritability or sibling rivalry than is usually tolerated from their children.
7. Adaptively handle adult stress.
Children pick up on their parents' and teachers' stress. Children need caregivers who are physically and emotionally available. Therefore, it is important that parents, teachers and other adults who experience trauma, , find effective ways to reduce their own stress, to understand the impact of grief, and to know when they need to seek professional help. Sharing experiences with family members, friends and other support networks is very important. Model for children: find joy in the simple things in life, take pleasure in fellowship with others, rely on your religious beliefs and spiritual strength, and count your blessings.
8. Be on the alert for behaviors that require professional help.
Parents and teachers of children who experienced a traumatic loss first hand should contact mental health personnel if the following behaviors present themselves:

Helping Kids Control Tattletale Behavior
Learning Benefits
Define tattling vs. telling. A good rule of thumb to use is that tattling involves trying to get someone into trouble while telling is trying to get someone out of trouble. Ask your child to think about which one she is trying to do before she runs to you with a big announcement.
Resist jumping in. Often, a tattler simply wants attention. Saying "Thank you for telling me" or "I'm glad you're not doing that" makes him feel acknowledged and heard. Then keep an eye on the situation to see for yourself what's going on.
Reflect and repeat. If she's really worked up, try reflecting her emotion back to her. "You sound really upset." Wait a bit and then repeat the problem to her. "I understand why you're angry that your brother took your doll." Resist the urge to scold or to point out that she also takes her brother's toys sometimes.
Brainstorm a solution. Ask your child to come up with an idea for solving the problem. When she does, review the consequences: "Is that a smart plan? What do you think will happen if you destroy all of his toys?" Have her pick a solution that works. This teaches her to problem solve.
Reassure her. While tattling can be grating, children should never be afraid to ask for help because they've been told it's wrong to tattle. Remind her to tell an adult if someone is in trouble or danger.

Fabric: Gore Windstopper Fleece
Price Paid: $65
I was looking for a lightweight, warm, windproof fleece to wear hiking, biking, and around town. I originally bought the Mountain Hardwear Windstopper Tech, but returned it because it's cut ridiculously huge. So far, I've been really happy with the Mountain Hardwear Link. It's warm (similar to a sweatshirt) and the Power Stretch panels provide good ventilation. Though my jacket seems to be lacking the DWR, the Windstopper membrane makes this jacket essentially waterproof in rain and snow.
Hands-down the best cut jacket I've found. It has an athletic cut similar to a soft shell, but still has enough room in the chest and sleeves for long sleeve shirts. I'm not a huge fan of the Carbon (green) color, but the jacket still looks pretty darn cool.
I wore this jacket hiking in Utah in the dead of winter with only a long sleeve tee underneath and was happy. The jacket provided more than enough warmth when I was moving. Once my tee became damp and I stopped moving, it felt a bit chilly in the Power Stretch areas on the sides of the torso and arms.
Overall a really great jacket, especially for the price (I picked up a prior season closeout). Could be slightly warmer and more wind resistant without the Power Stretch panels, but then it's essentially a Mountain Hardwear Windstopper Tech.

Price Paid: $80
I grabbed the 06 model on sale from REI Outlet and combined it with a 20% offer. I was just looking for a basic fleece and couldn't have been more happily surprised. I'd never owned a fleece with Windstopper before and man is it great. This fleece is probably the most versatile garment I have and is great in fall/spring over a t-shirt, or in the winter over a flannel.
My only complaint is that the side pockets are a touch high, so it feels awkward walking with your hands in your pockets. Otherwise, the chest and internal pockets are a nice size and well placed.
The sizing runs true to list. I went with an XL even though the sizing chart puts me at a L. While the fleece fits fine when I'm using it alone, it doesn't zip into my L Mountain Hardwear Hardpack Parka very well. The fleece zipper is an inch longer and it bunches a little under the shell. I'm still glad I got the XL because it fits nicely over other layers, but if you are committed to using it as a zip-in layer, this is something to consider. An XL shell would absolutely swallow me.
At any rate, it is surprisingly warm for a low-volume fleece and I would get it again.
Beautiful mid-layer fleece jacket! Depending on your…
Fabric: Outer: Microfleece -- Inner: Poly Tricot Knit
Price Paid: $160
Beautiful mid-layer fleece jacket! Depending on your needs...whether over your favorite base or under your favorite shell, you can't beat this jacket in this price range. Functional, comfortable and attractive (I have it in the color Carbon).

- Campmor refers to the men's version
The Mountain Hardwear Men's Link Fleece Jacket zips into compatible shells to give mountaineers breathable weather-protection. Windstopper microfleece and a Windstopper laminate make this lightweight jacket impenetrable to razor-sharp, high-altitude winds, but its breathability keeps you from swamping up. Four-way stretch arm and side panels make steep ascents feel fluid. The Link Jacket transitions easily into warmer weather, so shed your shell in spring and wear this flexible fleece alone on the first sport climbs of the season.

these fences are the best!
Reviewed By:
Janette Blandford
(Mount Holly, NC)
I've used these fences for the past two seasons, and they're the best! And not just for peas - I've found them to be especially useful for cucumbers, beans, and squash. Because of the extremely poor condition of my soil, I garden using several raised garden beds. With these fences, I can grow crops that usually spread out in a very confined space.

The pea fence is sturdy and lasts for a long time. I have several and for quite a number of years. Because they are foldable, I like to transform them into rectangles or triangles to use instead of pepper and tomato cages.

The Clemson Tigers have made Chad Morris one of the highest-paid coaches in the land, and he's only an offensive coordinator. After being highly sought by Urban Meyer's Ohio St. Buckeyes and others, Morris saw his value shoot through the roof:
@BFeldmanCBS Clemson OC Chad Morris just inked a 6-yr, $7.8 mil deal, per a source. (That more than some Big Ten & Big 12 HCs made this yr)
That's more money than head coaches such as Pat Fitzgerald and Kevin Sumlin made last year. It's more than twice what Washington State paid head coach Paul Wulff. That's the market for a top-notch coordinator, it seems.
Clemson isn't in the Orange Bowl due to its No. 59 defense. Tajh Boyd and Sammy Watkins have proved to be explosive implements after just one year of Morris' direction, with the Tigers scoring a full touchdown more per game than they did in 2010.

Alum Xiaobo Tan's research featured in NSF Highlight
ECE/ISR alumnus Xiaobo Tan, an associate professor at Michigan State University, recently had his work on robotic fish featured as a Highlight on NSF?s ?SEE Innovation? website.
?Artificial Muscle-Enabled Robotic Fish? has resulted in innovative ideas for developing energy-efficient robotic fish, which could potentially revolutionize the way aquatic environments, drinking water reservoirs and aquafarms are monitored.
Tan and his colleagues modeled, designed and constructed fish that use electro-active ionic polymer-metal composites (IPMCs) for locomotion. Similar to muscle tissue, the IPMCs change shape when a voltage is applied. The fish fins are integrated with a control system to provide the robot with energy-efficient, fish-like maneuverability.
Tan has partnered with zoologist Elena Litchamn at MSU's Kellogg Biological Station to explore monitoring applications in ecosystems. The team foresees using the fish as an environmental data collection platform by adding communication, navigation and environmental monitoring sensors.
Tan's work also has been selected by NSF to represent the Foundation at the U.S. Science and Engineering Expo in Washington D.C., later this month. This is the second time his research will be featured in the expo. He will present an exhibit titled, "Robotic Fish Patrolling Waters" at the event. | View a fun video from this event |
In addition,the robotic fish were featured on Bloomberg.com.
Tan earned his Ph.D. in Electrical Engineering in 2002 and was advised by Professor John Baras (ECE/ISR) and Professor P.S. Krishnaprasad (ECE/ISR).

A memorial service was held for the 19 firefighters of the Granite Mountain Hotshots killed on June 30, 2013, while battling the Yarnell Hill wildfire near Prescott, Arizona. "Hotshots" are crews of 20 firefighters, specially trained in wildfire suppression tactics. The service at Tim's Toyota Center began with a choir singing "On Eagle's Wings." Brendan McDonough, the lone member of the crew to survive, was among the speakers that also included Vice President Joe Biden and Arizona Governor Jan Brewer.

When Minnesota Twins catcher Joe Mauer went on the disabled list, he left a team that was struggling. When he comes back, it will be to a team in ruins. So it follows that the Twins aren't going to rush their substantial investment back into action. They'll take their sweet time in the absence of a pennant race, and let him recover at his own pace.
So while it's obviously good news that Mauer is catching again in extended spring training, there's probably reason for just a little bit more optimism than one might find in the typical road-to-recovery story. From 1500espn.com:
The Minnesota Twins' ailing All-Star played three innings at catcher in an extended spring training game, his first game action at the position since he went on the disabled list on April 14.
Mauer is 0-for-10 so far in two extended spring games, but the bigger story is that he's playing at all. The Twins still aren't putting a timetable on his return, though making sure that Drew Butera's 3 OPS+ doesn't see any more playing time must be awfully tempting.

Big 3 at U.S. Open
June 7, 2012 - Mike Mathison
Thursday--Friday 10:22 a.m.-4:07 p.m. — Thomas Bjorn, Denmark; Kevin Na, Las Vegas; Branden Grace, South Africa
10:33 a.m.-4:18 p.m. — Phil Mickelson, Rancho Santa Fe, Calif.; Tiger Woods, Hobe Sound, Fla.; Bubba Watson, Scottsdale, Ariz.
10:44 a.m.-4:29 p.m. — Joe Ogilvie, Austin, Texas; Stephen Ames, Canada; Tim Herron, Deephaven, Minn.
Do you really think the bookend threesomes around the Lefty, Tiger, Bubba trio has any chance to 36 holes of peace and quiet. The least the USGA could have done was make that Big 3 either the first or last group off one of those days. That way, only one group, would have been bothered.
The Olympic Club is not exactly on a vast portion of land that is spread out like Oakmont Country Club. The Olympic Club is is a great golf course and one that will give all the participants and the eventual winner all they can handle.
But, to put a threesome like this on a golf course will only bottleneck the place more than it already will be. Crowds are going to be mooooooving all over the place and Bjorn-Na-Grace and Ogilvie-Ames-Herron must really be patient when they will hit any shot, or strike any putt.
I am not a big fan of the Big 3 pairing.
But, I guarantee you, a lot of other big names are thankful for it because there will be "less" people around them Thursday and Friday.

Why Miniature Lamps Do Not Mean Miniature Benefits
Miniature lamps have become a very popular addition to homes when looking for style and a new concept to the existing lighting in the home. The correct lighting throughout the home is essential and will provide both function and style to every different area. Due to advances in technology the different lighting options are available in smaller unique designs.
When considering what lighting to have in your home you will need to decide several different factors. Including where to have the miniature lamps positioned, what their function is and how easy it is to find the miniature bulbs to fit. Although there are more shops and manufacturers of the miniature lamps, you have to consider the accessories for them.
If the miniature lamps are to be used as a functional purpose as well as a stylish accessory, you will need to consider the wattage of the bulbs. Although smaller lamps take up far less space, there is no need to compromise on quality. You can find some very affordable, stylish options in unique sizes to guarantee that you have a lamp for your room.
Choosing the right miniature bulbs is essential to complete the whole look and feel in the room. Although they are smaller, they can still provide enough light for you to work, read, or relax within the room. When you combine the correct bulb with the ideal miniature lamps and surrounding decor, you will create the perfect ambience. At one time, big was always seen as beautiful, however, small is becoming the better feature to have.
Finding the ideal place to position the miniature lamps is essential to ensure that it can be used easily and provide the adequate lighting for your needs. If the lighting in your home is positioned correctly, it can make the whole room look and feel very different. The color that you choose for the miniature lamps will also make a difference to the light that is produced and feeling that is created. Every element of the lighting in your home plays a part in the overall ambience that is created.
If you have space issues or are looking for lamps that are ideal for night reading alternatives, the miniature lamps are perfect. This style of lamp takes up very little space and is incredibly lightweight making them ideal to move around the house if needed. Although there are some great, affordable options for you to choose, if you want to spend more there are very stylish miniature lamps to choose.
No matter what your budget and style is there are plenty of different options of both the lamps and miniature bulbs to choose. You will be able to create the ideal atmosphere for very little money, ensuring that every room in your house looks and feels great.
