New for the 2010 fall line is the Sierra Designs Gnar,…
Fabric: 100% nylon ripstop shell on the outside,
Fill: 800-fill down
Price Paid: Free sample provided by Sierra Designs for testing
New for the 2010 fall line is the Sierra Designs Gnar, a weightless 800-fill down jacket in its finest form. I got a sneak preview of this jacket at Outdoor Retailer in January and could hardly wait for the chance to test it because, frankly, it's an incredibly attractive jacket (sweater).
The Gnar has an adjustable hem to keep out cold air, elastic cuffs, and, best of all, thumb loops! Thumb loops keep the jacket sleeves down over your hands to keep them warm when you don't have gloves.
Because the Gnar has such a trim and fitted design (even though my sample size was a little bigger than I normally wear), I wore it as an insulating base layer under a soft shell jacket.
It comes with its own stuff sack and packed down to the size of a bag of Starbuck's. This summer, I won't hesitate to add this to my backpack on mountaineering trips. If the weather turns suddenly or the winds pick up—as weather and winds are want to do in the mountains—it will be easy to remove put it on under my softshell. The 100 percent nylon ripstop shell is treated with a DWR finish to shed light rain and melting snow just in case.
Its packable size also makes it easy to bring along on airplanes. I took this jacket to Banff National Park in February and stashed it easily in my suitcase along with my ski jacket. When I took it from the stuff sack after the flight, it lofted instantaneously and didn't look like it had been smashed under ski boots for 4-hour flight.
For cargo, the Gnar has two zippered hand pockets and one zippered chest pocket on the outside and two dump pockets on the inside stash money, keys, phone, etc.
Will the Gnar keep you toasty when it's -10 outside or atop a fourteen thousand foot peak in January? Probably not on its own. If you're doing winter mountaineering, you'll want a jacket that's designed for that purpose.
A word on sizing. My sample was a medium and I normally wear a small. If you normally wear a small (or medium or large), get a small (or medium or large). The better it fits your body, the warmer you'll be, and the nicer it will fit under a softshell jacket.

Saturday 08 June 2013
Aston Villa have confirmed that they have agreed a deal to sign Aleksandar Tonev from Lech Poznan.
The 23-year-old Bulgaria attacking midfielder has completed a medical and agreed terms with Villa, who expect the final paperwork to be sorted out next week.
"I have played in front of big crowds before but the atmosphere in England is unique"
Aleksandar Tonev
"Aston Villa is a big club and the manager and club have a belief in young players and in the team ethic," Tonev said on Villa's website. "When I heard about Aston Villa, I thought about playing in the Premier League for such a big club.
Tonev said that former Villa captain and compatriot Stiliyan Petrov, who announced his retirement at the end of last season and is now assistant development coach at the club, had played a big part in attracting him there.
"Stiliyan and [Fulham striker] Dimitar Berbatov have done really well in this league and I hope I can do the same," Tonev said. "They are both great Bulgarian players and hopefully I can do the same and make my mark on the Premier League.
"I have played in front of big crowds before but the atmosphere here in England is unique. The crowd is like a 12th player for the team and I am looking forward to playing in front of the fans."
Tonev has won 11 caps with Bulgaria, making his debut against Wales in October 2011, and scored his first senior international goals with a hat-trick in the 6-0 win over Malta in a World Cup qualifier in March.

Those behind House Bill 2571 said it would bring Arizona's personnel system to the 21st century.
Those opposed say it would open the door to political cronyism.
CBS 5 News went straight to the bill's sponsor for some answers.
"What we're trying to do with this bill is modernize our state personnel system," said Rep. Justin Olson.
Those who sponsor massive bills like this one typically have a way to talk up the good points.
"Is it going to make it easier to terminate employees?" asked reporter Elizabeth Erwin.
"It will get rid of a lot of the red tape that currently surrounds our personnel system," Olson answered.
In other words, yes.
Then there's the section about the Department of Public Safety.
"We recognize that officers who are sworn officers are carrying firearms, making split second decisions on life and death. They shouldn't be second guessing those decisions based on the status of their job," Olson said.
No one will debate the tough job our law enforcement officers have, especially not Patty Simpson.
"I've been with DPS for 23 years," Simpson said.
She represents the civilian half of DPS as a supervisor at a 911 call center.
She's also a member of the Arizona Highway Patrol Association.
"For the most part we're dealing with a lot of accident type calls. Occasionally we get suicide callers and things like that."
If anyone makes split second decisions that impact people's lives it's Simpson.
And she's not the only one.
Civilians at DPS work in the crime lab, and as the photographers who take pictures of crime scenes and in the sex offender unit.
They fill big jobs, but under the bill they won't be viewed the same as their gun carrying counterparts.
"The bill, the way I understand it, it's going to form a separate classification for all civilians to go under," Simpson said.
Simpson said that means they won't have the same protections and the same checks and balances as their colleagues.
"Are you aware that about half of the DPS employees are civilians," Erwin asked Olson.
"That is correct. And there's been a lot of analysis surrounding whether the civilian folks in DPS should be exempted out of this bill as well," he responded.
Right now, the bill is at its final step in the Senate, but Olson expected there would be some changes as to how those DPS civilian employees are classified.
CBS 5 news will keep an eye on it and let you know what happens.

"As in her other books, Roach successfully explains a complex subject in an understandable and interesting manner." ---Library Journal Audio Review
"Narrator Emily Woo Zeller complements Roach's bizarre details, witty style, and humorous attitude word by word. . . . Zeller is undeterred . . . embracing the subject with aplomb and audible appreciation of the author's puns and jests. This appealing nonfiction work yields as much intrigue as any fictional thriller." ---AudioFile

Adventurous kids and doctors alike will appreciate this fascinating and sometimes ghastly tour of the gastrointestinal system." ---Publishers Weekly Starred Review

Student hospitalized after bike, SUV collide
Original post made on Nov 6, 2012
Read the full story here Web Link posted Tuesday, November 6, 2012, 9:44 AM

This collision happened last week and the police don't have any information about where it happened? Really is true that the police log is useless.
I'm glad that the victim is recovering.
on Nov 6, 2012 at 9:56 am
My heart goes out to this student. I hope that you are able to recover from this horrible accident. Thank goodness you had a helmet on, and god bless you for your amazing spirit.
on Nov 6, 2012 at 10:43 am
I was biking home from school drop off on morning of October 30th. The intersection of Waverley and Santa Rita (intersection is shaped like a parallelogram, not square with right angles) was completely roped off with Caution Do Not Cross tape. Later that afternoon there were policemen on the scene studying the crash site. This could be where Ken Shin's collision occurred.
Two weeks ago I helped a Stanford athlete who was hit by a bus on campus! And just this morning there was an SUV weaving and dodging around bicyclists and cars on Bryant Avenue. Please, we all just need to slow down a bit.
Best wishes to Ken for a speedy recovery and would you please tell your fellow students to actually buckle the strap on their helmets. I was also in a bike accident long ago and the helmet strapped on my head saved me.

I once ran a popular four-mile race—for a magazine story, I swear—that required eating a dozen doughnuts at Mile 2. (They were the hardened Krispy Kreme glazed variety that had been sitting around for about twelve hours.) Though my stomach was certainly impacted by the sudden doughy tumor, my time wasn't actually that much worse; I was a little more than a minute slower running the same two miles with the doughnuts in me than I'd been without them. Of course, that might have been because I knew there was a Porta Potty at the end.
These days I steer clear of what was once my favorite late-night snack, and I usually run on an empty stomach. Still, I find myself running (occasionally from someone, or as part of an annual St. Patrick's day pub run, but more often late at night to sober up) with alcohol in my system, once in a while. The effects of doing so have been debated many times over the years. Sure, writes the Running Times, looking hard for an upside to tipsy traipsing, "there's an undeniable psychological component to alcohol consumption. Alcohol can boost spirits and reduce stress. There are plenty of runners who routinely have a beer the night before big competitions and manage to run great races." But more often than not, it'll hurt you in a physical way. "Because of the way alcohol is metabolized," writes Runner's World, "most of these excess carbs [in beer] are stored as fat." So you're essentially fat-loading when you drink before a race. May as well do that at Fat Matt's.
Over the course of the next two weeks—once a neck injury from a game of pick-up basketball heals—I plan to do a very unscientific survey of the effects three liquors have on my modest running ability. Specifically, I will test rum, bourbon and gin. Mostly because those are the only liquors I really like, and keep. I encourage those of you out there old enough to drink (and young enough to run afterwards) to give it a shot, too. At the very least, we'll get in good enough shape to join the Atlanta Hash House ("drinkers with a running problem") on a local drink-and-jog.
Send your own drinking data, and any publishable before and after pictures, to email@example.com. Cheers!

As the rabbits skirt danger at every turn, we become acquainted with the band, its humorous characters, and its compelling culture, complete with its own folk history and mythos.
"Still one of the best!"
"You can leave the army, but the army doesn't leave you. Not always. Not completely," notes Jack Reacher - and sure enough, the retired military cop is soon pulled back into service. This time, for the State Department and the CIA. Someone has taken a shot at the president of France in the City of Light. The bullet was American. The distance between the gunman and the target was exceptional. How many snipers can shoot from three-quarters of a mile with total confidence? Very few, but John Kott - an American marksman gone bad - is one of them...

General Motors and Chrysler grabbed the taxpayer lifeline, but Ford decided to save itself. Under the leadership of charismatic CEO Alan Mulally, Ford had already put together a bold plan to unify its divided global operations, transform its lackluster product lineup, and overcome a dysfunctional culture of infighting, backstabbing, and excuses.

In 1945, former combat nurse Claire Randall returns from World War II and joins her husband for a second honeymoon. But their blissful reunion is shattered....

The unworldly, innocent Ana is startled to realize she wants this man and, despite his enigmatic reserve, finds she is desperate to get close to him.

"Holy Crap minus the Holy"

Now Beth must navigate the underbelly of a city she doesn't know, and the only one who can help her is Nick Vargas, a disgraced newspaper reporter on the trail of a dangerous and deadly cult with big plans for its annual celebration...on the Day of the Dead.
Pirriwee Public's annual school Trivia Night has ended in a shocking riot. One parent is dead. The school principal is horrified. As police investigate what appears to have been a tragic accident, signs begin to indicate that this devastating death might have been cold-blooded murder. In this thought-provoking novel, number-one New York Times best-selling author Liane Moriarty deftly explores the reality of parenting and playground politics, ex-husbands and ex-wives, and fractured families.
"Great story. Genius writing"
Not too long from today, a new, highly contagious virus makes its way across the globe. Most who get sick experience nothing worse than flu, fever, and headaches. But for the unlucky one percent - and nearly five million souls in the United States alone - the disease causes "Lock In": Victims fully awake and aware, but unable to move or respond to stimulus. The disease affects young, old, rich, poor, people of every color and creed. The world changes to meet the challenge.
"Fun! Things you might want to know:"
Why we think it's a great listen: Seabiscuit was a runaway success, and Hillenbrand's done it again with another true-life account about beating unbelievable odds. On a May afternoon in 1943, an Army Air Forces bomber crashed into the Pacific Ocean and disappeared, leaving only a spray of debris and a slick of oil, gasoline, and blood. Then, on the ocean surface, a face appeared.....
"Hillenbrand could make even laundry fascinating!"
"The Secret Place", a board where the girls at St Kilda's School can pin up their secrets anonymously, is normally a mishmash of gossip and covert cruelty, but today someone has used it to reignite the stalled investigation into the murder of handsome, popular Chris Harper. Stephen joins forces with the abrasive Detective Antoinette Conway to find out who and why.
In a single moment, everything changes. Seventeen year-old Mia has no memory of the accident; she can only recall riding along the snow-wet Oregon road with her family. Then, in a blink, she finds herself watching as her own damaged body is taken from the wreck.
"Loved it!"
It is Nick and Amy Dunne's fifth wedding anniversary. Presents are being wrapped and reservations are being made when Nick's clever and beautiful wife disappears from their rented McMansion on the Mississippi River. Husband-of-the-Year Nick isn't doing himself any favors with cringe-worthy daydreams. Under mounting pressure from the police and the media - as well as Amy's fiercely doting parents - the town golden boy parades an endless series of lies, deceits, and inappropriate behavior. Nick is oddly evasive, and he's definitely bitter - but is he really a killer?
"Demented, twisted, sick and I loved it!"
Happily retired in the village of Three Pines, Armand Gamache, former Chief Inspector of Homicide with the Sûreté du Québec, has found a peace he'd only imagined possible. On warm summer mornings he sits on a bench holding a small book, The Balm in Gilead, in his large hands. "There is a balm in Gilead," his neighbor Clara Morrow reads from the dust jacket, "to make the wounded whole." While Gamache doesn't talk about his wounds and his balm, Clara tells him about hers. Peter, her artist husband, has failed to come home. Failed to show up as promised on the first anniversary of their separation. She wants Gamache's help to find him. Having finally found sanctuary, Gamache feels a near revulsion at the thought of leaving Three Pines. "There's power enough in Heaven," he finishes the quote as he contemplates the quiet village, "to cure a sin-sick soul." And then he gets up. And joins her.
"Better Than Therapy"
In a time long forgotten, a preternatural event threw the seasons off balance. In a land where summers can last decades and winters a lifetime, trouble is brewing. As the cold returns, sinister forces are massing beyond the protective wall of the kingdom of Winterfell. To the south, the king's powers are failing, with his most trusted advisor mysteriously dead and enemies emerging from the throne's shadow.
"Review of First 5 Books"
In Beatrice Prior's dystopian Chicago, society is divided into five factions, each dedicated to the cultivation of a particular virtue - Candor (the honest), Abnegation (the selfless), Dauntless (the brave), Amity (the peaceful), and Erudite (the intelligent). On an appointed day of every year, all sixteen-year-olds must select the faction to which they will devote the rest of their lives. For Beatrice, the decision is between staying with her family and being who she really is - she can't have both. So she makes a choice that surprises everyone, including herself.
"It's not for me. Loved it anyway."
New York Times best-selling author Diana Gabaldon enchanted scores of fans with Outlander, her electrifying historical saga set in 18th-century Scotland. Now this sequel sweeps listeners back into the past as Claire relates more of her perilous sojourn there with her Scottish warrior husband, James Fraser. Twenty years after her strange journey back in time, Claire has returned to Scotland with her daughter, determined to share with her the secret she has harbored since her time travel.
"Finally! The unabridged version is here!"

But every choice has consequences, and as unrest surges in the factions all around her, Tris Prior must continue trying to save those she loves - and herself - while grappling with haunting questions of grief and forgiveness, identity and loyalty, politics and love.
"Decent but not as interesting as Divergent"
December is the time of the annual Ceremony at which each twelve-year-old receives a life assignment determined by the Elders. Jonas watches his friend Fiona named Caretaker of the Old and his cheerful pal Asher labeled the Assistant Director of Recreation. But Jonas has been chosen for something special. When his selection leads him to an unnamed man, the man called only the Giver, he begins to sense the dark secrets that underlie the fragile perfection of his world.

Building a community hub in Orton has cleared its first construction hurdle.
The land for the future Orton Park has been levelled and filled by the municipality.
"We are at the stage where weather is our hamper now," said Steve Koote, president of the Orton Community Association. "We are very, very happy with the progress so far."
New wires set for installation by Hydro One previously hindered park plans. However, the utility company provided East Garafraxa with $175,000, a $25,000 grant and new property for the park — a little more than three-acre parcel of land north of Atson Hall on John Street.
Koote said the new property allows more space for the park. The previous five-acre plot was home to significant wetlands that could not be developed.
"It's what we had in the previous park. However a little less than half was usable space. With the new park we have 100 per cent usable space," Koote said. "It's quite a nice improvement from that perspective."
The community association is now in the planning stage of what to include in the park. Koote said it would likely include a baseball diamond, playground area, concession stand, parking and picnic pavilion.
The Elora Cataract Trail also runs alongside the park, creating an advantage for hikers, according to Koote.
"We're very excited for the proximity to the trail," he said. "People will be able to use the picnic area for their rest stop."
The community association is now in the fundraising phase of the park, with funds needed to purchase baseball and soccer equipment as well as the materials for an outdoor ice rink. Koote said a financial figure for the equipment is not yet known.
"We're looking at what fundraisers we have available," Koote said. "We're open for ideas and donations for sure."
The tentative opening date for the park is July 1, 2013, which coincides with the community's chicken barbecue and fireworks display.
To make a donation to the park, call 519-855-3215.

Pours a amber color with medium, thin head. Aroma is weak but of caramel and some floral hops. Taste is a nice roasted malt followed up with a decent amount of sweetness. A bit of orange and grassy hops is also evident. It is light on the palate with a long-lasting, sweet aftertaste. A nice example of a Vienna lager.

Served in a nice flip top bottle, poured into a pilsner glass. Beer is dark yellow, and has very low carbonation and no head to speak of.
Aroma is fruity and sweet, not really what I expected. Some malt character, no hops at all.
Beer itself is quite smooth. Sweet upfront, no bitterness at all. Really high mouthfeel, pretty thick a little too thick. Finishes nicely and no aftertaste. Drinkability is high (really high). I would definitely order this again.

Wanted something German to go along with the Oktoberfests I bought for the season so gave this a try. No "Best before end" date on the back, although there is a place on the label for it.
Pours a rich gold like an Oktoberfest. Small amount of white frothy head on top that clings to the glass but dies away quickly with no lacing. Minimal visible carbonation. Lacing is slightly brown around the edges.
Aroma is very malty and slightly overwhelming. Sort of like Negro Modello or one of those Mexican ambers where the malt sort of knocks you off your socks.
Taste is more of a Marzen than a Vienna lager.. not really hopped enough for a Vienna lager. Very sweet and malty otherwise. I would say this is bready to the extreme. Slightly soggy and damp flavor. The carbonation doesn't do anything to emphasize the malt, making it feel slippery and sweet. Clean and clear, but obviously slightly old and a bit too creamy and rich. Needs balance, but has a lot of flavor otherwise.
I bet this would be better fresh and with a little more carbonation.

Buying a bunch of these for home brew bottles. Hope the beer is drinkable...
A- translucent, brownish amber with a decent white head, which fll quickly.
S- very bready, pizza-dough aroma, framed in with lots of sweet malt.
T- light body resolves into moderately malty, and sweet, without any real hoppyness, but also without becoming overpowering. Aftertaste is very bready. Flavors are a bit light, a bit bland, but not terrible.
M- light body, light carbonation, especially for a bottle conditioned beer. Maybe I poured it too vigorously?
D- Ok, I guess. I pretty sessionable, but also pretty bland. Maybe a few of these while I play TF2 would be cool, though...
EDIT: if you are thinking about buying this beer for the bottles, don't let the C+ discourage you: the beer is Ok, and I will drink them, it just realy isn't anything at all to write home about.

Serving Type: Grolsch bottle
Appearance: Dark golden orange. Very little head.
Smell: Very faint aroma of honey, malt sugar.
Taste: Sweet, malty taste gives way quickly to a honey-like aftertaste. A very faint after taste of hops lingers- this is a floral, honey-like taste rather than a bitter taste. Subsequent sips reveal an orange-rind character that is somewhat unexpected for a beer with this little bitterness.
Mouthfeel: First taste seems heavy but this original mouthfeel dissipates quickly. Carbonation is suitable to the style with very small bubbles.
Overall: This beer has a complexity that makes it definitely worth trying. Every sip seems to bring about a slightly different dimension although there is nothing that is particularly surprising about it. I would purchase it again.

33 cL swing top bottle
Color is relatively clear, slightly hazed copper color. Very weak, off white head that retains what little body it has and leaves very few spots of lacing. Fairly sweet nose, caramel and toasted malt, maybe some slight diacetyl. Creamy, smooth body with light carbonation and finish of slight hop bitterness. Flavor again has a slight diacetyl presence which is distracting. Regardless, flavor has strong toasted malt backbone, light grain flavors but overall just feels flat and lifeless. Not bad, but a little more carbonation would help. Drinkability is hurt by diacetyl presence.

500ml swing top bottle. Red/amber coloured beer with a nice frothy off white head. Good toasty malty aroma..loved it slight Ovaltine scent in this too..which again i loved. Nice malt driven beer, biscuity,doughy, strong, touch of hops in the end. I found this fairly inviting on the palate. Good drinkable vienna. Liked it a lot simple but good.

Pours a deep amber color. Reminds me of thick apple juice almost. Frothy head and good lacing down the sides. Smells very sweet and aromatic.
Tastes similar to it's appearance. A bit of fruityness in there, apple/caramel/citrus. Piney aftertaste.
The mouthfeel is pretty good though a bit on the light side. Drinkability remains high as well, I always like these Vienna Lager's for their ability to be downed in repeated fashion without problems.
Overall a decent one but not the best from the brewery.

Found this at a store in Queens, NY near my hotel at La Guardia. I wandered off and found myself surrounded by housing projects in the Ghetto (yes, with a capital G). I am about as pasty white as you can get, and I seemed to be the first white person any of these people have seen in a long time. Not all gang bangers around, but plenty of them doing business with cars pulling over, "mean-mugging" me as I walked by looking down at the ground, etc.
At any rate, very limited selection at the store but was surprised to see this brew that I've never seen before. Flip top, brown bottle--I always like to see German beer in brown bottles--no skunkiness. All in all, not a bad beer, but not something I'd buy again.
A: Light amber, fairly clear. Very little carbonation. This bottle had a ton of sediment in suspension--not sure what that means, but if I didn't already know what it was I might've thought it was dirt or something.
S: Fairly pleasant, typical Amber maltiness dominates.
T: A little bland, but not too bad for an amber. Mostly light malty character, but adequately balanced with a mild hoppiness.
M: Despite apparent lack of carbonation, has decent body with a nice crisp feel to it after initial smoothness.
D: I'd call it thirst-quenching. Not bad for one or two on a hot a Saturday afternoon in the summer, but I'd generally choose something else were the selection better.

A: Poured a beautiful light ruby red color with an initial 1 finger spongey head that quickly receded to a thin film layering.
S: a nice sweet maltiness to it, worty, with a light flowery hopping.
T: The flavor was sweet toasted malt, bready, with a touch of dry flowery hopping. Some light dried fruitiness with a light citrus touch is detected. sweet with a light bitterness that is well balanced and managed makes this a nice drinking amber that drinks like a rich sweet octoberfest.
M: creamy and chewy and very smooth.
D: An easy drinking beer, sweet, smooth and no problem going down. Would definitely buy and try this again.

Reviewed on 9/5/08. Bottle. Pours a light brown with a very small foamy white head. Aroma of cardboard and stale wheat. Flavor is the same. Tastes just like the Pilsener, somehow. I guess I just don't like the house character of these Schwelmer beers.

Flip top bottle purchased as a single at Whole Foods... Middletown, NJ
A - Nice gold, white head, but faded quickly, may have been a bad poor.
S - Touch of malt and maybe caramel, maybe... maybe, a touch of skunkiness??
T - kinda plain for a german beer, but i don't think i have had enough germans to be truely educated enough.light malt and a touch of wheat. not much in the sense of hops.
M - A bit watery and thin.
D - I suppose this would be OK on a hot day out of a cooler... or if you want a semi-cool bottle.

A friend gave me a 6 pack box of these, and apparently our local grocery store now carries them.
Poured a deep gold with fluffy white head. Good head retention but almost no lacing.
Smell is a light sweet malt, biscuity, with a light hop.
Taste is very creamy. Buttery biscuits with a light malt and fresh water. Toasted flavor in the nose with a bit of cornbread. Hop is very light but is detectable in the mild bitter of the finish.
Mouthfeel is very light bodied, carbonation is good, smooth not crisp.
Drinkability is great. I can't say that I'd drink this all day but it's very easy to drink. The sweetness isn't overbearing to me, like a tripel, but very light. Very easy to drink a few of, and pairs very well with everything I've had it with. A great lunchtime/sandwich beer.

11.2oz. flip top bottle.
A: Poured a dark golden, slightly hazy color with minimal head into a Pilsner glass.
S: The aroma seemed weak to me and I could not pick out any truly discernable smells.
T&M: A unique taste that leans toward malty with a butterscotch/caramel type of character. The mouthfeel is smooth and inviting. Carbonation was low in my sample.
D: This is a nice, drinkable beer but I think after two one would be looking for something new that's a little more "alive" on the palate. I enjoyed this one and will drink it again.

Enjoyed the swingtop bottle :-) Poured an amber hue in a beer mug. The smell had a slight sweet aroma with a medium hop aroma as well.
The taste was smooth and had a medium malt body with some sweetness. The hop profile was medium with some decent hop taste and a medium bitterness. There were some caramel flavors as well. The carbonation was medium and the consistency was medium as well.
Overall, I enjoyed the quality and especially the choice of hops. Good drinkability overall and worth a try if you like a good lager.

A: Dark gold and slightly brown. Gives it the look of full-bodied beer. Thick 1.5 inch head that laced all the way down, but did fade in the second half.
S: Toasted malt and really good hop balance.
T: Love it when a beer tastes like it smells; toasted malt with a slight hops bitterness. Dry finish that leaves subtle spice tones in mouth. I really liked the way this beer tasted.
M: Not as full-bodied as I thought it would be, so a little let down. Medium carbonation.
D: Well worth the 4-pk .5L swing top I purchased. I'm getting more and some of there other offerings.

Flip top bottle purchased as a single at Total Wine, Chantilly, VA.
A - Nice gold w/very modest head and scant lacing.
S - Touch of malt and maybe caramel.
T - German Michelob. Scant carbonation, texture or mouthfeel. Pretty one-dimensional but on the same token nothing objectionable.
M - A bit watery and thin.
D - I suppose this would be OK on a hot day out of a cooler if you wanted to impress Bud-swilling friends, but that's about it.

Swing-top bottle into a 10oz nonik glass.
Fairly vigorous pour yielded not much in terms of head. Smell is pleasantly malty and sweet. Color is a hazed amber gold. Taste is subtle/borderline bland and follows the aroma. Mouthfeel is pretty thin and carbonation pretty low. Not much going on hop-wise. Definitely a strange aftertaste but not as extreme as some reviewers indicate.
Overall, below average and not really worth you time or money. Won't kill you though...

This beer poured a red-tinted copper color with a single-finger head. The smell is mostly malt sweetness with a hoppy undertone. The taste starts off with some nice malty sweetness that's cut by a small amount of hops and finishes with an almost nuttiness that's very tasty. The mouthfeel is smooth with a middling amount of carbonation. It's a nice drinkable beer, and I could see myself having a couple in a row.

1/2 liter flip top picked up on Friday from Tres Bonne Cuisine for $3.25.. poured into my small weizen glass ....
Pour produced a short lived 1" head atop a crystal clear lite amber brew.
Aroma is an appealing toasted grain and little else... very clean.
Flavor is again clean toasted malt... very balanced and drinkable.. just enough hoppy bitterness to keep the whole brew very drinkable... lite bready finish... some earthy hop notes raise their head as it warms.
Not much else to say on this one... I will buy it again, but sporadically... this is only my 2nd Schwelmer brew, and so far I am not overly impressed, but I am glad they are actually available in Boise.

4.05/5 rDev +14.1%
Appearance- Pours a bright, clear, deep, amber color, with a large, foamy, mostly white head. The head looks like it has some staying power, and it leaves behind a nice, sticky lacing.
Smell- Lots of malt sweetness. Almost to much for the style, but it smells delicious. Picking up hints of Munich, Pilsner, and some roasted Vienna malts. Just enough hops to let you know this is a Pilsner. As it warms, you get some caramel notes. Very inviting, although not exactly to style.
Taste- Vienna lagers are hard to grade. This one is definitely better than what comes out of Mexico in the guise of Dos Equqies and Pacifico. Good blend of malt sweetness, maltiness and some bittring hops. Tastes like it was made with very soft water (like a Pils should be). Smooth, yet bold malt taste. Some caramel in there.
Mouthfeel- Medium body. Perfect carbonation level.
Drinkability- Well worth trying. Probably the best Vienna lager I've had outside of Germany,

Pours a slightly clouded gold with a crème head that was big off an aggressive pour, but came down fairly quickly. Nose is mild with a slight malt presence and cereal tone as well. Not a lot to it though. Flavor is medium bodied I would say. Slight robust edge to it and a peppery, spicy bite on the tongue as well. Feel is pretty standard. Drinkable as an average brew. Nothing to write home about or ever return to again.

S- Very clean floral/fruity aroma.
T- Good balance just barely a little sweet.
M- Quite light for the style.

Nothing too impressive but worth a shot.

Maureen Connors Badding arrived in Wauwatosa 22 years ago via Buffalo and Phoenix. She's a freelance writer and habitual volunteer who enjoys book clubs, travel, entertaining and cheering for her daughter's swim team.
Going Green in the Village
When you think about it, the Village of Wauwatosa is pretty green (in the eco-friendly sense) 365 days a year. It's just a short walk, bike ride or drive to some of the best restaurants and interesting shops in metro Milwaukee. In fact, the Village Business Improvement District offers a "Live Local" program with discount privileges for members at VillageofWauwatosa.com.
Add to that equation the Farmers Market and new stores that promote sustainability: Go Green Design Center, which offers green building supplies plus green solutions for energy and water conservation, and B. Green, which sells eco-friendly home goods and toys. Both of those businesses are in the building that Tosa oldtimers will forever refer to as "The Drews Building." (If you haven't seen it lately, it's worth a trip just to see architect and Go Green owner Karen Wilman's inspired design.)
This Saturday, a small group of volunteers is turning the Village even greener, with the second VillageGreen Street Fair. It's a family-friendly festival dedicated to sustainability.* There are green activities, green vendors and even green activities for kids, all from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. on June 4.
You can go to VillageGreenStreetFair.com to see the full lineup of green vendors, but check out this entertainment:
9 a.m. The Bystanders classic rock & current hits Underwood Stage
Saving Our Wildlife live animal interaction Kids Area
Greening Your Home presentation Little Red Store
10 a.m. Evan & Tom Leahy Band Irish & folk Harwood Stage
10:30 a.m. Rhythm for Unity Drum Circle Kids Area
11 a.m. Sustainable Communities presentation Little Red Store
Joey Lavie hits from the 70s, 80s & 90s Underwood Stage
11:45 a.m. Sweet Water Organics Traveling Mini-farm Kids Area
noon Small Space Vegetable Gardening Little Red Store
Bent Willow Band folk music Harwood Stage
1 p.m. Inland Moss bluegrass Underwood Stage
2 p.m. Zumba Demonstration/Class Kids Area
Healthy & Organic Desserts presentation Harwood Stage
The Kids Area will also offer face painting, crafts, hula hooping, a mural project called "It Takes a Village," and visits with exotic animals, urban wildlife and "recycled" golden retrievers.
(Conveniently, Saturday the 4th from 8 a.m. to noon is when my neighborhood association scheduled a scrap metal recycling drive in the Unity Church parking lot on 73rd Street, just north of Milwaukee Ave. Bring your scrap metal and electronics and then stroll down to the VillageGreen Street Fair.)
Hope to see you down there!
*VillageGreen Street Fair is presented by the BID and sponsored by our generous friends at WaterStone Bank, Forbo Flooring, the Lutheran Home/Harwood Place and the YMCA.

Crystal Palace defender Parsons joins Plymouth Argyle
Updated 11:16am Friday 17th January 2014 in Football By Sports reporter
Crystal Palace defender Matthew Parsons has been reunited with his former team-mate Jason Banton after joining League Two side Plymouth Argyle for an undisclosed fee.
The 22-year-old left back, a product of the academy set up, made his professional debut in the League Cup in 2010, and then made his league debut in the goaless Championship clash with Norwich City at Selhurst Park.
He also had short loan spells at Barnet and Wycombe Wanderers, but has failed to break into the first team equation at Selhurst Park, with the likes of Dean Moxey and Jonathan Parr ahead of him in the pecking order.

Fluid Boundaries
Things which appear solid melt away, fluid things coalesce. Lines merge and dissolve, boundaries flow. Shapes form, mingle, blend, and are transformed. Motion transpires into rest. Shot on the Canon 7D with Technicolor's Cinestyle picture profile. Graded in Technicolor Color Assist. Music: Fluid Boundaries-Aljosa Zovko
Transitions explores the contrast between ordinary travelers and railway workers as they move through the space of a train station. To travelers the train station is merely a jumping off point, a place to pass through with the least possible delay. Little attention is directed toward those who make the station and trains run smoothly. Only an inconvenience or delay slows the travelers' pace, giving them room to reflect. For railway personnel the train station is like a second home. It is a place that is deeply familar to them, a place where they've formed lasting friendships, a place to be rather than a place to pass through. Shot on the Canon EOS 7D. Music: Nils Frahm- Familiar
Almost There
Almost There is a meditation on departures and the paths traveled in dreams. With special thanks to Naomi P. Gassel. Shot on the Canon EOS 7D. http://aljosazovko.tumblr.com Featured on English art and design collective ONEEIGHTNINE: http://the189.com/design/art/almost-there-by-aljosa-zovko
"To them who step into the same rivers, other and other waters flow." -Heraclitus Khronikos is a lyrical meditation on memory, longing and the passage of time. Shot on 16mm Kodak Vision 2 250 D using an Arri BL and a number 2 diopter. Music: Threnody- Goldmund
Honest Hours
Honest Hours is a film based on footage from André Mielnik's 'Sobe, Sofia'. Music: Borderlands by Tim Hecker
Searchlight is a meditation on lost opportunities, and the search for beauty and meaning beneath the surface of urban existence. Shot with a Panasonic DVX 100b Music: Sleepwalker - Jon Hopkins
Through a narrative of a forest nymph, Chrysalis meditates on ephemeral and elusive joy. Shot on 16mm Kodak Vision 2 250D using an Arri BL. Music: Saycet - Tib's Day
Brothers is a narrative film that portrays a person's attempt to come to terms with the death of his brother. Created in 2009 for Intermediate Film Production at Johns Hopkins University. Shot on 16 mm Kodak Vision 2 250D.

Hackers can exploit a flaw in Adobe's Flash to compromise nearly every Web site that allows users to upload content, including Google's Gmail, then launch silent attacks on visitors to those sites, security researchers said today.
"The magnitude of this is huge," said Mike Murray, the chief information security officer at Orlando, Fla.-based Foreground Security. "Any site that allows user-uploadable content is vulnerable, and most are not configured to prevent this."
[ Learn how to secure your systems with Roger Grimes' Security Adviser blog and newsletter, both from InfoWorld. ]
The problem lies in the Flash ActionScript same-origin policy, which is designed to limit a Flash object's access to other content only from the domain it originated from, added Mike Bailey, a senior security researcher at Foreground. Unfortunately, said Bailey, if an attacker can deposit a malicious Flash object on a Web site -- through its user-generated content capabilities, which typically allow people to upload files to the site or service -- they can execute malicious scripts in the context of that domain.
"This is a frighteningly bad thing," Bailey said. "How many Web sites allow users to upload files of some sort? How many of those sites serve files back to users from the same domain as the rest of the application? Nearly every one of them is vulnerable."
Bailey, who demonstrated how attackers could compromise a Web site and attack users in a post today on Foreground's blog , outlined how a hacker would leverage the Flash flaw. "It's relatively simple," he maintained. "All they need to do is create a malicious Flash object, and upload it to the [Web] server."
He used the example of a company that lets users upload content to a message forum to explain the process. "If the user forum lets people upload an image for their avatar, someone could upload a malicious Flash file that looks like an avatar image," Bailey said. "Anyone who then views that avatar would be vulnerable to attack."
Adobe has told Foreground that the flaw is "unpatchable," Murray and Bailey said. Instead, Adobe is trying to educate site administrators to close the hole on their end. But they've not had much success.
"Some of the big Web properties have figured this out," said Bailey. "In a lot of cases, they're hosting user-generated content on another domain, perhaps for performance reasons." Among those site and services that have locked down their servers, Foreground cited Microsoft's Windows Live Hotmail and Google's YouTube. "But very few system administrators are even aware of this," Bailey added.
Even some of Adobe's Web properties are vulnerable to such an attack. "How can Adobe expect others to protect themselves when they can't do it themselves?" asked Murray.
Google's Gmail is also at risk from malicious Flash attack -- Gmail lets users upload and download file attachments -- although Bailey said that exploiting Google's Web mail service would be "extremely tricky" with "lots of hoops to jump through."
Although Foreground has not detected any in-the-wild attacks using the technique, Murray said that there's evidence hackers are moving toward such tactics. "We're starting to see Flash used in these ways," he said, and cited a recent worm that leveraged a similar vulnerability in Adobe's software, which is pervasive on the Web and on users' machines. "The worst-case scenario is that someone would figure this out, and launch silent attacks against the entire Internet."

Despite rumors among employees, officials at the Marine Corps Logistics Base tell us no contract workers have been furloughed because of the federal government shutdown, and they say there are no plans to furlough them.
Contractors handle much of the work at the Maintenance Center refurbishing heavy equipment.
About 900 federal civilian workers at the Marine Base were furloughed Tuesday and will remain off the job until the budget impasse in Washington is settled.

CATEGORIES Documentary, Drama, Independent, Newsstand, Movie Marketing, Politics, Cinematical Indie, Movies, CinematicalJust a day after we reported on censorship in other parts of the world (assuming, perhaps, that films in the US escape such restrictions) comes the news that American authorities are getting into the act, as well. Fan-freaking-tastic. According to press reports, the MPAA has objected to the poster that Roadside Attractions was planning to use to promote their American release of The Road to Guantanamo. The original poster depicts a prisoner hanging from chained wrists, with a burlap bag over his head -- nothing more, said Roadside president Howard Cohen, than a reflection of "what it is we are doing to people in Guantanamo." While the MPAA, not surprisingly, was unwilling to comment on its decision, Cohen indicated that the board's problem stemmed specifically from the bag on the man's head -- in the board's interpretation, the image was one of torture, which children encountering the poster shouldn't see. The new poster is cropped, and shows only the man's chained arms.
What do you guys think of this move by the MPAA? Are they really just protecting the innocence of kids, or is there a political element to the decision? We have, after all, seen countless, horrifying photos of prisoners in Iraq in much worse situations than simply sitting with a bag on their heads -- why should a poster not be allowed to reflect this reality?
Edit: FYI, The Guardian reports that the film itself has received an R-rating.

Continuing its habit of demonstrating NFC payments at high-profile sporting events, Visa has organized a mobile-payments trial with Banco de Brasil and Brazilian telco Oi to coincide with the World Cup.
The trial is being held with about 200 "friendly users," according to Telefónica Chile. They would be able to tap to pay where MasterCard PayPass is accepted at certain locations in Santiago.
One of Chile's largest mobile operators and one of its biggest banks are launching an NFC payment trial in the capital Santiago, with plans for a commercial launch nationally by the end of the year.
Mobile operator TIM Brasil and Banco Bradesco have disclosed plans for an NFC trial that they say would enable users to pay for purchases at contactless point-of-sale terminals by tapping their Motorola or LG Electronics NFC phones, with the funds deducted from their debit accounts.
A MasterCard NFC payment pilot in Brazil, launched last week with Itaú bank, mobile operator TIM Brasil, point-of-sale terminal supplier Redecard, and France-based Gemalto, is expected to lead to a full rollout of mobile PayPass services in Brazil.
The trial enables 50 users to tap NFC-enabled smartphones to pay at 100 merchants in São Paulo and Rio de Janeiro using a Mobile PayPass application.
Israel-based On Track Innovations reported new orders for its NFC and contactless readers in North America, along with the first shipments of its NFC-enabled Wave attachment, driving higher revenue, though the vendor's quarterly losses continued.
U.S.-based Identiv reported higher revenue and narrowed losses for the second quarter, predicting a breakeven or positive result by the end of the year, as the company's restructuring program draws to a close.
France-based Inside Secure reported a 9% drop in revenue in the first half, which it blamed on the end of shipments of NFC chips to BlackBerry and lower sales of "legacy" EMV chips to Europe.
NFC Times Exclusive: Westpac New Zealand's product chief told NFC Times he believes host-card emulation will reduce costs and increase flexibility, while ensuring the bank can use its own branded wallet.
NFC Times Exclusive: With interest in host-card emulation continuing to grow and SIM-based NFC rollouts in need of a boost, mobile operators and their global trade association, GSMA, are pushing for significant cuts in the cost and complexity of TSMs and lowering other hurdles that have discouraged service providers from provisioning their applications on SIM cards.
U.S.-based Broadcom did not mention NFC in its recent conference call with analysts following release of its second quarter results, in which it announced cuts to its global workforce of 20% by exiting the baseband mobile processor business.
A group of former top managers in Visa's mobile program have formed a start-up that plans to use NFC and BLE to deliver coupons, rewards and other offers to consumers in stores, using the branded apps of retailers or other marketers.
Visa Inc. has released a few more details of its planned tokenization service, which it announced last week as part of its Visa Digital Solutions "suite of offerings."
Transport for London today announced it would launch acceptance for open-loop bank cards and other contactless payment on its heavily traveled London Underground and other modes of transit in September, while the UK's largest mobile operator, EE, announced customers could begin to tap their NFC phones to pay fares at the same time.
Visa Inc. announced Thursday it would launch a tokenization service in September, as part of what it calls its Visa Digital Solutions "suite of offerings."
NXP Semiconductors said sales in its emerging ID business–mainly made up of its NFC chips–increased by 22% in the second quarter, compared with the first quarter, and CEO Richard Clemmer insisted the chip maker's secure element business would continue to remain a strong contributor.
Westpac New Zealand has announced a small trial of host-card emulation-based payments, with plans to introduce the technology to customers early next year.

As the 2012 NHL Playoffs continue on, teams who have been eliminated will now look to try to keep some of their free agents.
Some free agents however, such as Washington Capitals forward Alexander Semin, could potentially be lured away by some deep pockets in the Russian KHL league, according to Slava Malamud of The Sport-Express.
And here goes KHL, doing its thing again. The league announces that all returning Russian NHLers will not count against the salary cap.— Slava Malamud (@SlavaMalamud) May 13, 2012
Malamud continued detailing the issue on his Twitter feed:
Now, each KHL team will be limited to one such signing. Still, this should enable the rich clubs to back up the cash truck to Radulov, Semin. 1 more caveat on the KHL news. The player would have to be approved by national team coaches as "worthy" to be excluded from salary cap.
Essentially, players like Semin and as Nashville Preadtors wing Alexander Radulov could get huge pay days in Russia since the salary cap won't apply to them. The KHL is trying to lure Russian stars away from the NHL with the promise of massive paydays. The KHL hopes that NHL teams won't be able to match these potential KHL contracts because the KHL won't have to battle against a salary cap.

The Chief Justice of the Alabama Supreme Court disagreed with the decisions of lawmakers and the governor to divert additional funds to the state's nationally recognized Pre-K program during budget talks.
"The program didn't even exist when I last held this position" Chief Justice Roy Moore told WSFA 12 News in an exclusive interview.
Moore said the judicial branch faces an $8.4 million shortfall even after fee increases were approved by lawmakers last year. That shortfall comes after cost-cutting efforts like closing clerks' offices one day each week from the public to let court workers catch up on work to keep caseloads from becoming impossible to manage.
"The fee increases weren't enough" Judge Moore said. Despite those funding woes, Moore ruled out tax hikes or any other sources for new revenue. He said the state must reallocate it's resources in order to budget wisely.
The Chief Justice attempted to make it clear that he's not pitting young children against the court system, but added that you can't leave the court system underfunded.
"In the Constitution we're guaranteed adequate and reasonable financing" Moore said. "We haven't had adequate and reasonable financing in many many years."
On the Pre-K issue, Judge Moore alluded to the fact that state government has grown too much since he was last in office in 2003. "I'm not against children and I'm not against education but again this is a program that didn't exist when I was here in 2000 and now we're $8.5 million dollars short and they're giving 9.4 million dollars that didn't even exist when I was here before" he said.
Moore also pointed out that the Unified Judicial System isn't "just another state agency."
"We're a branch of government" Moore said. "There's the executive, the legislative, and the judicial."
Moore said the judicial branch has been cut more over the past few years than any other branch of government.
If the Unified Judicial System does get an additional $8 million through conditional appropriations, funds set aside by lawmakers in the event revenues are higher than expected, then 150 court workers will keep their jobs.

Trance is a style of electronic dance music that developed in the 1980s. Trance music is generally characterized by a tempo of between 130 and 160 BPM, featuring repeating melodic synthesizer phrases, and a musical form that builds up and down throughout a track. It often features crescendos and breakdowns. Sometimes vocals are also utilized. The style is arguably derived from a combination of largely electronic music such as ambient music, techno, and house. In the early 1980s, the German composer Klaus Schulze composed several albums of experimental, atmospheric space music.

U.S. District Judge Ginger Berrigan does not see a settlement coming in the bounty case, writing that the failure of the settlement talks was "extremely disappointing."
Berrigan issued an order on Wednesday asking for more filings pertaining to the players' request for a temporary restraining order to allow them to return to work with their teams as their case against the NFL continues.
In her order, Berrigan wrote the interests of Will Smith, Anthony Hargrove, Scott Fujita and Jonathan Vilma have been undermined by, "longstanding acrimony among all of the attorneys representing all of the parties that predates these disputes."
She also referred to a potential conflict of interest since Smith, Fujita and Hargrove are represented by the same lawyers representing the NFLPA.
Berrigan asked the league to file its response to the NFLPA's request for a temporary restraining order by Thursday. Smith is facing a four-game suspension, Fujita, who is now with the Browns, is suspended for three games and Hargrove, who is a free agent, faces an eight-game suspension. Vilma was suspended for the entire season.
Vilma has his own attorney and asked for a temporary restraining order in July. The NFL maintains that the Saints ran a pay-to-injure program from 2009-11 and denied the players' request for appeals.
There was a report earlier this month that a settlement between the league and Vilma, who reportedly was offered a reduction of his suspension to eight games, was being discussed, but the league denied the report.

It's an interesting read.
However, what is really catching people's attention is the issue's cover.
A lot of people find this interesting for much *different* reasons.
Alongside the headline "Can Anyone Stop Hillary?" is a photo-illustration of a mega-sized woman's leg in high heels that's poised to cut and crush a man who's hanging on for his life.
