Soldier injured in Iraq receives Bronze Star
Original post made on Sep 8, 2007

Food for thought....I found it interesting that after this story was posted, not one person has commented or congratulated SSG Wilkerson for his deserved praise (and fellow soldier Hernandez) for serving our country, yet people found more than enough time to comment on exploding toilets (28 comments), banning pit bulls (42 comments), and a riveting discussion regarding McMansions (34 comments).
Although we are a nation at war, it is all too easy to get caught up in "real life" (myself included) since there is absolutely zero sacrifice demanded of us - no increase in taxes, no draft, etc.
But it is sad commentary when nobody takes the time to congratulate or thank a local hero who's life has been permanently altered because of the war. I doubt HE will forget the sacrifice he made for our country - we shouldn't either.
I'm just as guilty as everybody else.
Just some food for thought...
on Sep 8, 2007 at 6:16 pm
Why is this surprising to you?
This area (San Francscio and Mid Peninusla) is very anti military. It is also very unpatriotic.
I used to work at the VA, and I can assure you that most of the MD staff is very left wing. They maintain professional presence when they are with the Vets, but they are very cycnical about them, when they are off duty.
Here is a simple test. How many staff MD at the VA/Stanford will fly the American Flag on Sept. 11 at their private homes? Same for Veterans Day and Memorial Day. Most vets do. I do. Do you, BP?
Your question has less to do with taxes and the draft, than it does with basic unpatriotic attitudes. The left wing version of patriotism, today, demands to cut and run, tax the rich, impeach Bush, etc. Please, if you can, provide three examples of VA senior staff that honor the wounded as heroes for their country, because they fought our country's enemies at the behest of our Commander in Chief.
on Sep 8, 2007 at 6:31 pm
Dear Editor and BP,
Thank you for so much for running this story.
I would love to personally hug each soldier for their service to our country, regardless of any feelings about the decision of our President to go to war.
These soldiers are the sons, fathers, grandfathers, mothers, brothers, sisters, and friends of others.
They have made a tremendous sacrifice.
When I first saw the story in print, I wanted to send a personal written thank you to The Palo Alto Weekly.
Thank you poster "BP" - I too wondered the same, why no one else bothered to post a single congratulatory message.
I hesitated to post anything because it is my feeling that many online readers seem to be unable to agree on anything.
When I posted a story a while back, entitled, "Can You Imagine Something This Wonderful Happening In Palo Alto", my intent was to show how wonderful it would be if an entire city would come together to celebrate anything.
I happened to choose a slide show sent to me from a friend in Kearny, Nebraska. Their entire city welcomed home a large regiment of soldiers from Iraq. I should have used a slideshow of their Fourth of July celebration, because many people posted insulting things about the war, President Bush, racism, and nasty generalizations about people in the Midwest.
I am ashamed at the people in our community - they rather bicker and bash one another, and the employees of our city, rather than post something laudable.
There are so many things to be grateful for in our country, and our community, but we are so wrapped up in the little inconveniences and our differences that we forget to look at the big picture.
I am grateful that there are posters like you, and additionally, fine editors.
I noticed that the city of Los Altos has their Main Street decorated in American flags...

Hop Toad Cocktail/
1. 5 oz. Dark Rum (Ron Zacapa Centanario 23)
1 oz. apricot brandy (Rothman and Winter)
.5 oz lime juice
Angostura bitters to taste
Shake with ice. Strain into chilled cocktail glass.
The recipe listed above is from Gary Regan's classic "The Joy of Mixology", which itself is an adaptation from A.S. Crockett's, "The Old Waldorf-Astoria Bar Book" (Gary adds bitters), which is most likely an adaptation from Tom Bullock's Ideal Bartender, where it was called a Leaping Frog* (recipe below) before rum was added. How's that for evolution of a cocktail? Provided you start with high quality ingredients, all variations are delicious and it will take a bit of experimenting to find the version that suits your taste. Many fine classic cocktails call for apricot brandy making it a great addition to any home bar. Cocktail Historian David Wondrich insists that a true Hop Toad* (recipe below) is made with Hungarian Apricot Brandy, but Rothman and Winter is a fine choice, a blend of a true apricot eau-de-vie sweetened with apricot fruit juices harvested at their peak ripeness in Austria.

A Service of Word and Song
March 3rd, 2011
Opening Prayer
O Lord, open our lips.
And we shall declare your praise.
†Song "How Can I Keep from Singing" Chris Tomlin
Matt Redman, and Ed Cash
There is an endless song
Echoes in my soul
I hear the music ring
And though the storms may come
I am holding on
To the rock I cling.
How can I keep from singing Your praise
How can I ever say enough
How amazing is Your love
How can I keep from shouting Your name
I know I am loved by the King
And it makes my heart want to sing
I will lift my eyes
In the darkest night
For I know my Savior lives
And I will walk with You
Knowing You'll see me through
And sing the songs You give. Chorus.
I can sing in the troubled times
Sing when I win
I can sing when I lose my step
And fall down again
I can sing 'cause You pick me up
Sing 'cause You're there
I can sing 'cause You hear me, Lord
When I call to You in prayer
I can sing with my last breath
Sing for I know
That I'll sing with the angels
And the saints around the throne
How can I keep from singing Your praise
How can I ever say enough
How amazing is Your love
How can I keep from shouting Your name
I know I am loved by the King
And it makes my heart
I am loved by the King and it makes my heart
I am loved by the King and it makes my heart want to sing.

Dozens of schools just North of Mid-Michigan closed Friday due to icy back roads.
The news came as a pleasant surprise to students, like Lillia Sherman. "I'm happy," she exclaimed.
The superintendent of Millington schools said they did a road check early in the morning and found a serious ice crown on secondary roads. So, they decided it wasn't safe for buses to transport their students.
With so many kids home from school many parents, like Lillia's father Mike Sherman, decided to take the day off as well. "I was extremely excited so we could spend the day as a family," said Sherman. Dozens of people, including the Shermans, ended up at Mcpherson's Family Restaurant in Millington. Linda Case was determined to meet her friends -- even though she says part of the drive was a little tricky. "We live off from the road quite a ways. I slipped and slid all the way through, got on the main road easy going all the way through," said Case. While school officials weren't comfortable sending buses out on back roads, folks who live here say it's nothing they can't handle. "Nothing really keeps me from joining friends, bad roads or whatever," commented Case. "We've lived here 41 years so we're always prepared. This is living in the rurals," added her friend Linda Watson.

Special military exhibit to open at Winchester museum
Updated 4:04pm Wednesday 23rd April 2014 in News By Lauren Howard, Reporter
ANYONE with an interest in modern military warfare is invited to a special exhibit at The Rifles Collection museum in Winchester.
On Thursday May 15, from 7pm, the new museum will open its doors for an exclusive evening of talks by riflemen as part of the international Museums at Night campaign.
The servicemen will give a presentation, entitled Chosen Men: The Rifles in Afghanistan, on life on the front line and present some never-before-seen items from tours of Afghanistan which have been loaned to the museum exclusively for the event.
Exhibitions curator, Major Robert Yuill, said: "This is a unique opportunity to gain a personal insight into life in the regiment on operations today. The talk will allow an exceptional insight into the work of an infantry man, illustrating what it means to serve in The Rifles on the front line today."
The Rifles Collection is a new museum of the largest infantry regiment in the British Army, The Rifles, and explains the role of the modern infantry today.
The evening will take place at The Rifles Collection/Royal Green Jacket Museum at Peninsula Barracks in Winchester and will begin at 7pm with a reception.
Tickets cost £12 per person, including a glass of wine and canapés. For tickets telephone 01962 828505 or email firstname.lastname@example.com.

I have been wanting to do a post about baby registries for months. The more I thought about all of the new tools and contraptions that pop up almost daily for moms, I realized it would be nearly impossible to complete a comprehensive post on the subject. If I did attempt "The Top 20 Baby Items You Must Have on Your Registry" post, let's face it. . .it would be filled with 20 items that I love. . .that I've heard people say they love. . .that I've read on other blogs that people love. How could I possibly know what you will love or need for that matter? A few months back I did do a post called, "Our Essential New Mom Toolbox" which was filled with items that I have loved in the past year as mom to an infant. But it was far from comprehensive. I merely scratched the surface of possible aides to assist mother's of newborns. So, aside from that post, for now, I've decided to not even try to tackle the fun and exciting adventure of gearing up for baby. . .well, not in the equipment sense anyway.
I have been working these past few months on the manuscript for The Baby Companion book release. As I've asked God to show me what he desires to say through us for new moms, there is one word he's engraved on my mind. If there is one "item" to hope someone wraps up and delivers to you at your baby shower. . .If there is something you should pray your friend or family member drops by when you are in the hospital after delivery. . .If there is one gift you will never need to return, it's
"Wisdom is the principle thing; therefore get wisdom. And in all your getting, get understanding." Proverbs 4:7
In this scripture, King Solomon implores readers to "get" wisdom. More than any other tool, he confidently places wisdom at the top of the list.
Friends…for every season of our lives but perhaps most of all the early years of motherhood, wisdom is the most important tool we can acquire. It's not something we can order on Amazon, it's an asset that comes from reading the Bible, prayer and the selective counsel of others. I say 'selective' because not all of the counsel you will receive as a mom will be wise. Which is why, most of all, wisdom comes from above, through God's leading.
Enjoy your time preparing for baby and dreaming about bedding and little girl dresses or little boy shoes. Don't miss out on the fun of choosing every, little bit of gear that will aide in your days with your wee one. But don't get so caught up in nursery decor and stroller options that you neglect to "get" the main thing. Ask everyone in your sphere to offer it up in abundance. Then ask the Lord to help you sift through every well-meaning piece of advice to find the wisdom that is meant for your family.
This way, you'll be geared up and ready when baby arrives.
Mamas, what's the best piece of wisdom that you were given before your baby arrived? {Not advice. Wisdom. There's a big difference, isn't there?!}

Spokane Police Department Press Release:
Monday morning Spokane Police responded to a report of a broken window in
the 1800 block of W. Gardner. During the course of the investigation, officers
discovered the damage had been caused by an incendiary item and called for
Spokane Fire Department Arson Investigators.
Spokane Police had previously responded to several other calls at the same
location that indicated the events may have been racially motivated. Agents
from our local federal partners offered their assistance in the investigation
due to the nature of the events. Officers spent the day interviewing witnesses,
victims, and neighbors, and began the process of matching statements with
physical evidence.
Detectives determined yesterday's arson event, as well as a separate incident
that was reported on November 3rd, were intentionally caused by a
tenant living at the victim residence.
The investigation has indicated that the house had been vandalized last month
but those incidents appear to be unrelated to the arson investigation.
The victim may be facing 1st degree arson charges. The Spokane
Fire Department Arson Investigators will take the lead for any pending arson

It takes guts to make another teenage vampire film, but then, no one has ever found director Mary Harron lacking in those—American Psycho, anyone? At last night's Tribeca Grand Hotel screening of The Moth Diaries, her adaptation of Rachel Klein's gothic teen novel, Harron explained that when she decided to make the movie, she had no idea what Twilight was. In any case, "The Moth Diaries is saying something different about adolescent girls than those other films are," she said. "It's about female friendships, not male-female romance, and the way that your friendships with girls are actually so much more intense than the ones with boys."Intense is also the best word for the performance of model-turned-actress Lily Cole, who plays the dark-haired villain Ernessa. She's mostly left the runway behind, but to hear her tell it, she has no regrets about that. "I was modeling because I fell into it, but it was never something I was trying to pursue," she told Style.com. "Whereas I love film as a medium and feel quite creative and challenged by it." Following The Moth Diaries, she'll appear in Snow White and the Huntsman alongside Kristen Stewart and Charlize Theron, and after that, make for a smaller screen. "I'm working on this new series with six contemporary artists with Sky Arts," she said, one that makes good use of her art history degree from Cambridge. Lily Cole's Art Matters hits the airwaves in the fall.

PHILADELPHIA Ś In the documentary ōShored Up,ö scientists warn that with a rising sea level, a major storm could put New JerseyÆs barrier islands underwater and create devastating storm surges. In other words, what happened last month when Superstorm Sandy slammed into New Jersey and New York.
For Ben Kalina, the Philadelphia filmmaker who was nearly finished putting together the documentary when the storm hit, it meant that the ideas in the film that may have sounded far-fetched Ś or at least, discussions of something that may happen sometime in the future Ś were suddenly immediate.
ōUntil Sandy, we were making a film about something much more meditative, really,ö Kalina said. ōAnd now the stakes are suddenly much more real.ö
It also meant Kalina and his crew had more shooting to do, revisiting places theyÆd shot Ś some of which were wiped away by Sandy.
That again pushed back the completion date for a film heÆd been working on for three years. HeÆs now planning to finish the film in January. ItÆs an independent effort that he is hoping will be shown on television. He is also planning to hold screenings, particularly in the places featured in the movie, such as New JerseyÆs Long Beach Island.
Kalina, 36, is not a scientist, but heÆs fascinated by telling the stories from science by looking at the cultural and political implications, too. He worked on ōA Sea Change,ö about the state of the worldÆs oceans, and ōAfter the Cap,ö a look back at the Gulf oil spill of 2010, among other films.
He became interested in the state of barrier islands after reading an article about how surfers opposed beach replenishment projects on the New Jersey shore.
The story became broader than that, evolving into a look at the way shore areas are developed and protected through means like jetties and beach replenishment projects. As more structures are built on barrier islands, he said, more has to be done to protect them. ōOnce you decide to settle in a place thatÆs so fraught, all the decisions you make have consequences and more consequences,ö he said.
The solutions can be expensive, and Kalina says, not sustainable.
ōBeach replenishment is not going to save the day,ö he said. ōYou get this sense of security from beach replenishment thatÆs a false sense of security in the long run.ö
The film uses animation, interviews with scientists, footage of storms past and some dramatic policy debates to tell the story.
Kalina started out focusing on New JerseyÆs Long Beach Island, but also traveled to North Carolina. There, officials decided this year to use historical trends to build their expectations for oceanside building codes and land-use decisions rather than the more rapid sea-level rise that many scientists now expect.
The filmmaker, who grew up going to family homes on MarthaÆs Vineyard, said the ideal time to address how best to develop vulnerable coastlines would be before a major storm, not after one.
The irony is that nothing can draw attention to the issue like a storm.
ōItÆs a window of time when people have actually just witnessed the destructive force of nature,ö he said. ōThere are very few windows like that.ö
And it could also be a window for his movie.
Before the storm, when he talked about it in his neighborhood in South Philadelphia, Kalina said, he found himself explaining what a barrier island is.
Now, practically everyone knows.

Served in a flared pokal at Bliss.
Not many better ways to kick off a Bliss tasting than a beer I've never heard of before. It pours a clear sunrise copper topped by a finger of light off-white foam. The nose comprises pine, grapefruit, kiwi, candi sugar, green apple, light flowers, lemon zest, mandarin oranges, and some decidedly sweet caramel. This is one of the better scents I've had from an IPA in a while. The taste brings in more of the same, along with plenty of honeydew and a touch of pineapple. There's still plenty of citrus fruits and a bit o' pine in there, blasting the tongue in a tasty explosion of hops, but it's kept from going over the top with a decent amount of caramel. The balance is surprisingly pleasant, even though the caramel is clearly the weaker of the dyad. The body is a rather light medium, with a light moderate carbonation and a nearly dry finish. Overall, a great IPA, something I don't encounter too often these days. I might consider stocking up on this one while it's still fairly fresh...

Review from BeerAdvocate Magazine Issue #55 (August 2011):
Raise your glass to Summit's 25 years! Heady beginning, bright copper color. Hoppy nose of citric zest, mint, dank blond tobacco, hemp seeds and peppercorn. Creamy from the first sip. Hops don't play around but get right to business with a puckering bitterness and heavy-handed citric rind flavor. Alcohol warms, slightly estery. The malt character struggles but makes due, keeping this beer somewhat balanced. A solid brew all around.

Finally rating a very good special release from Summit in celebration of their 25th anniversary. From my stash brought back after my roadtrip to Minnesota last August.
Beautiful appearance in my Deschutes tulip. Nice deep bronze color decent head. Flowery, balanced up front finished with hop bitterness that reminds me that it's an IPA.
Delicious. I am very glad I had the opportunity to experience this beer.

Serving glass: Poured from bottle into Nonic Imperial Pint. Best by 11/24/2011.
Appearance: Clear, light amber with moderate off-white frothy head and minor lacing.
Smell: Very standard IPA aroma, with orange, grapefruit, pine and toasted & caramel malts. Standard, but fairly persistent.
Taste: Strong hop taste of orange, grapefruit and light tropical notes (pineapple, mango) over a fairly complex malt backbone of caramel and toast. Ends quite bitter with some pine, spiciness and lingering citrus.
Feel: Moderate carbonation, medium body, very dry finish. Smooth and creamy overall.
Overall: My first thought was that this is a very standard IPA, and I almost gave it a lower score. Then I realized that while there are many similar IPAs out there, this one is done exceptionally well, as it is very bitter but somehow still balanced, with a great smooth mouthfeel. Like many of their Unchained beers, this should be in the regular lineup. Summit is capable of such greatness with these one-off beers, but I know their mission with their regular lineup is to reach the mainstream, not us beer geeks.

Poured from 12 oz. bottle into a Sam Adams perfect pint glass.
Appearance: Deep golden orange with a lot of rising bubbles and a huge four foot white head that seemed to still be growing a good minute after pouring. Great retention and a good amount of lacing.
Smell: Aroma is a big burst of hops. Citrus hops, and herbal earthy hops with plenty of pine. Also a good amount of caramel and toffee malts. Smells like a big west coast IPA. Very inviting aromas.
Taste: Hops are even stronger in the taste. Big burst of citrus grapefruit hops and piney earthy hops. A good amount of caramel malts and toffee form a solid bready backbone. Hints of spices, maybe a little mesquite pepper? Tastes full and bitter enough to almost be a double IPA.
Mouthfeel: Medium bodied with a moderate amount of carbonation. Bitter but still smooth. Slightly dry.
Overall: An outstanding American IPA that holds up with pretty much anything from the west coast. Cheers to Summit for 25 years.

Summit Brewery don't like at all, however this beer hasn't change my tune towards them. To me, asides their seasonals beers, taste all the same. It doesn't matter on the style. Within the last year, this brewery has done different things that has been turning heads. This beer is one of the head turner. They took their EPA as a base to make this beer and change it.
This beer look is not really good but the smell of the hops and the taste is something else. A very nice hoppy and smooth after taste. I really love how I can say this. This beer to me is a strong pale ale that could be IPA. I believe this should be their EPA everyday. I really speak highly of this beer and hop heads need to try this beer. Cheers!

Clear brassy golden hued with a sizeable, rocky, pale beige head that sags quickly and laces in rings.
Toasty, biscuity malts and a multi-colored hop attack from grapefruit, pine, pineapple and milkweed star in the aroma, with a slightly sweet backing honey note.
Biscuity and toasty at its onset in the mouth. A touch grainy as it transistions to hops. The Citra notes are expressed more clearly here, though never exclusively featured or solely focused on, with their grapefruit, pineapple, and lime. Bitterness is large and thorough, both via pine resin and pulpy weeds.
Medium plus bodied, tautly carbonated throughout. Bitter and slaking enough to ensure drinkability with enough balancing maltiness to round it out.
Given the price, I'm sure to see a heavy rotation of this while its available.

Poured from 12 oz. bottle into a standard clear pint glass.
Appearance: Clear deep amber color with a two finger off-white foam head that left nice sticky lacing as it receded.
Smell: Pine and herbal hops up front, with a hint of malty sweetness beneath. Smells inviting.
Taste: Citrus and Pine hops are the immediate flavors, followed by a decent malt sweetness to balance it out. Malts give it a nice caramel and toffee flavor to offset all the hops. It's like a hoppier and maltier Summit Extra Pale Ale, and that's a good thing. All the flavors of the Pale Ale are turned up to eleven, and it all works.
Mouthfeel: Light to medium body and crisp and clean on the tongue. Slightly dry and good carbonation.
Drinkability: A very good American IPA, with good hop profile and a great balance of sweet and caramel malts. Could easily session with this one, if I can find more. It's selling out in all the stores near me.

Summit Silver Anniversary Ale
12 oz. bottle; $1.49 @ Joe Canal's, Egg Harbor Twnshp., NJ
I didn't see any descriptor on the label (which was a little weird) so I wasn't sure of what to expect. (Maybe they had the label approved and printed before they figured out what style they were going to do). Upon pouring it, however, I knew it was hoppy with lots of citrus notes!
The body is a deep amber in color, with orange highlights. The frothy white head holds well and leaves very nice lacing upon the glass.
The nose is piney and citrusy with notes of pineapple, grapefruit, and some minor tropical fruit. The hops are bright and only a hint of maltiness slips through.
The malt does show up in the flavor though. It's got a good malt base to it, and its caramel and bready notes support the hops nicely. It's also balanced by a bracing bitterness that pulls everything together. Without that combination it would just fall apart as the pungent, piney, juicy, and citrusy hops took over. Surprisingly, it's a fairly short finish, and the bitterness fades readily with only a little bit of pine left behind.
I couldn't put this one down at first, it was really compelling. The hops just kept pulling me back for more, and the bitterness and malt weren't doing anything to stop me - it's really easy to drink if you're a hop head. I find it very nicely balanced with so much hop in the aroma, and then perfectly blended into the malt in the flavor. It's just a little bit bigger than some, and it's really nicely done without going overboard. I could find this on a regular basis I'd definitely make a habit of it. Worth seeking out.

12oz bottle into pint.
A: Body is light golden in color, with a good amount of haze. Lacing is light and sticky. A white head has lower formation and retreats to a thin layer.
S: Aroma is medium intensity for style. Hoppy elements of pine, citrus and passion fruit. Malt is low but shadowed by fresh malt essence.
T/M: Big hop character, with light malt body and a American yeast zing on the finish. The layered bitterness is in its height on the front and subdued by the hoppy pine resins present. Lingering dryness is strong of Citra. Malt promotes a smooth mouthfeel and a good level of creaminess.
O: Overall this is a very nice and multi-dimensional brew. Very nice blend of hops.

Summit kicked ass with this one. The smell is AMAZING!!! Definitely worth trying for all those hop heads in the land. The appearance is a very nice copper with thin white head that is lacing well. The scent has spice and citrus bouquet. The taste is definitely powered by grapefruite and spice. The bitterness comes at the end but then dissapates quickly. The mouthfeel is quite nice and could session this for a while. Worth a shot!!

Picked up a single from Abe's. Mmm. It's great to finally get a good American IPA from Summit. It reminds me a bit of Sierra Nevada's Torpedo IPA. There's a big, biting citrus-pine hop hit right off the bat, but as it fades fruitier notes, like hints of pineapple, come out. I like that the body is a little lighter than many IPAs. I think it helps add an edge to the bitterness and doesn't make it too filling. My only gripe is that the aroma doesn't stand up to the rich, hoppy taste. I'd take more and hope this becomes a staple of Summit's line.

2.98/5 rDev -25.1%
Poured a nice hazy bright amber with a thin soap ring head, mild retention and thin lacing.
The smell is a bit on the malty side for IPA, a bready and biscuit dominated nose with a mild bit of piney hops.
The flavor is a bit thin with a light bit of crackery malt and a long lingering floral pine finish, balanced but boring.
The mouthfeel is a bit thin with a dry finish.
Nothing special to see here, another mediocre IPA in an already over saturated category, so why bother?

Enjoy by 12/27/2011. Clear amber color with a large, rocky head that had excellant retention. The head slowly settled to a thick cap. Almost the entire glass ended up with lacing on the surface. This beer definately is a looker.
Hoppy aroma with plenty of pine, citrus, tropical fruit qualities. Not much of anything from the malt.
Hard to pin down exactly what it is about the flavor of this beer that fails to excite me. Very bitter approaching Imperial IPA levels if not smack dab right into that style. The Citra hops plays behind the Cascade and Centennial hops that makes up most of the flavor. Malt flavor is very muted with just a touch of toasted qualities. One dimensional. Maybe if it was less bitter and has more malt precence, I would enjoy it more. I am sure hopheads will absolutely love this beer.
One of the nicer carbonated IPAs on the shelves. Just wish it had a little more depth of body.
A great buy at $7.99 a sixer. That is a lot of hops for that price. I am sure I will be buying a lot of this even though it is not my favorite IPA on the shelf. All the locals who were clamoring for Summit to brew an extreme IPA, they got their wish.

A big thanks to cpolking for sending this beer. Poured from a brown 12 oz. bottle. Has a light brown color with a 1/2 inch head. Smell is of hops and citrus. Taste is very hoppy, some grapefruit, considerable bitterness throughout. Feels medium bodied in the mouth and overall is a good quality beer.

Citra, eh? Love me some of that.
Pours into a pint with some generous fluffy foam on top, sticky with a meringue sheen to the surface. Bright orange gold with a slight haze and visible carb trails. Fuzzy halo of lacing inside the glass. Lasting head retention.
Big citrusy nose, fairly straightforward with orange and grapefruit notes. Flavor has a bit more specialty malt caramel and herbal bitterness, though there are citrus pith/peel elements from the Citra. Smooth with a dry bitter grapefruit peel finish. Medium to light body, easygoing carbonation levels. Easily sessionable.
Overall pretty tasty and seemingly simple, though it has some nice hop nuances to it.

pours cloudy golden orange with a 1 finger head that decent retention and left spotted lacing
smells very west coast - pine grapefruit and nothing else
taste has less pine and grapefruit then i would have thought from the nose but both are still there for sure more floral with a bitter ashy aftertaste - kinda of a west coast 2hearted
mouthfeel - medium/full body still crisp great carbonation
overall a very solid ipa - and would be a great one if there was just a little malt

Poured into a warbled mug.
Appearance: Clear pale amber pour with a tall, creamy ivory head that is very reluctant to settle. There is excellent, thick head retention, and the lacing is left in huge chunks of thick heavy foam, and some thick rings later down the glass.
Smell: Great floral hops and fruity esters, a nice citrus grapefruit aroma. The layers of fruit and floral notes are very nice.
Taste: Nice caramel malts along with a good dose of citrus. Nice balance, slightly bitter, resinous finish.
Mouthfeel: Creamy, coating feel; the body is on the thicker side of medium, with medium carbonation and a crisp, refreshing finish. A very nice IPA.
Overall: In my opinion this is a solid IPA and well done at that. Would love to see this made regularly after the anniversary brewing ends.

I am a projection designer.
I am not a lighting designer, although I use a specialized lighting instrument to convey my design. I am not a scenic designer, although my imagery can be graphic or scenic in nature. I am not a sound designer, although my media may include an audio element. I do not see my job as a stepping-stone to any other discipline. I do not aspire to be a lighting, scenic, or sound designer. I am perfectly happy being a projection designer.
There are many great scenic, lighting, and sound designers out there. One of the beautiful things about the creative process in live theatre is that it is a collaborative form of communication. It is not design by committee, but a gathering of people whom the director believes will best serve the piece. I do not think theatre is democratic. I have always believed it is a collaborative dictatorship with many micro-dictatorships within it.
First of all, I think, as designers, we need to come up with a title for our vocation and stick with it. Whether I am using a video projector, television monitor, 35mm slide projector, vintage home movie projector, or a candle and shadow, I still choose to call myself a projection designer. If it were up to me, this would become the generic title for the job — similar to how brand names such as Kleenex® or Xerox have become part of our vocabulary. Why? Two reasons: the first is tradition. It is an homage to those who have come before us, since this field was created by people using slide projectors, magic lanterns, shadow puppets, and other projected media. The second is more philosophical, because I am projecting my ideas and concepts as another layer on top of the performance and therefore (hopefully) projecting it into the minds of the audience.
One of the reasons I think we need to simplify the name of what we do is to help better educate audiences (including journalists) about who we are and what we bring to the table. If an orchestra lover's experience is enhanced by learning to single out and appreciate the sound of the oboe, then shouldn't a theatre lover's experience be enhanced by learning to appreciate the subtle but specific differences in the design? Ideally, a show's design would be a perfectly seamless blend of lighting, sound, scenery, and projections. While the best designs can blur the lines enough so the audience can't always perceive where the lighting ends and the scenery begins, I have to believe that it would most certainly improve any audience member's experience to recognize the different components that work together to create that seamless world.
In many ways, this lack of understanding is the fault of the journalists whose job it is to educate the masses about what is or is not worth appreciating in theatre. While trade magazines, such as this one, always make an effort to give credit where credit is due, the general public is probably deciding what show to see by reading the newspaper. Often, I've read a review of a show that failed to properly credit the projection designer for his or her work. It recently happened to me, in fact. When the show's publicist questioned the critic about his error, his response was that he didn't have time to really examine the playbill before he delivered the article to the newspaper, as he had an extremely tight deadline. Will not mentioning the projection designer in an article hurt a show? Certainly not. Will not mentioning the projection designer hurt the projection designer's ability to find more jobs? Quite possibly. Will not properly crediting the projection designer's work to the designer hurt the field of projection design? Absolutely!
If we, as projection designers, cannot get proper credit for our contribution to a show, I believe it causes a chain reaction that ultimately leads to us losing out on getting theatrical work. Many times, a projection designer is called in to work on a show as something of a problem solver, whether it is a stage direction in the script that conventional scenery just cannot pull off, the transitions in a show needing more pizzazz, or the director wanting a film clip directly inserted into the show. Projection designers are often brought in to conjure up solutions that conventional physical scenery cannot realize.
But in many ways, the projection designer gets the short end of the stick. The budget is already set for the show long before the idea of projections is even a twinkle in the creative team's eye. Projections are almost always looked at as an afterthought or an add-in. In some cases, the scenery is probably already designed, maybe even already built. The lighting and sound packages are already ordered, maybe even loaded in.
The producers are enthusiastic about what they hope projections will add to the piece, but since it wasn't originally planned for, and money has already been earmarked for everything else, they often can't pay the projection designer a fee that is comparable to any other member of the creative team. Maybe they try to save money by not offering the projection designer residuals. They most likely don't want to pay the weekly rental for the projectors, especially not the bigger, more expensive ones. They certainly don't want to pay for another programmer or assistant after dealing with the lighting and scenic folks. We are a very new field with no union representation, so there is no established standard. It is a lose-lose situation. By calling us in to work on a show so late in the game, producers aren't prepared to pay for the development, construction, and deployment of the media that they are asking us to design.
However, the simple truth is that not everyone sees every show. However, almost every potential theatregoer reads the newspaper review (especially producers). The old adage that "any publicity is good publicity" may ring true for a hard-working scenic designer. You design some hits and some misses, but as long as they mention your name in the review, you can expect it to get stuck in the public consciousness. The review I cited earlier actually praised my work but accredited it to the lighting designer. Why? Because the lighting designer has been the resident lighting designer for that company the last 10 years, and his name has been in every review. That repetitive, subconscious publicity made it the name the journalist remembered to include.
To be honest, what exactly projection designers do (and please don't call us projectionists: those are the fine men and women who install, set up, and maintain projectors) is a bit murky. I believe it is a part of our job as designers to educate the public on what our contribution to theatre is. Sometimes it is easy to see. Other times, it may be a little more abstract. But in order for projections to be recognized as an individual contribution of the overall design, they must be included whenever discussing the design of a show.
Does every show need projections? No. I've worked on a few that probably didn't need them at all. But if done well, can projections enhance just about any show? I think so. I do believe that there could and should be many more opportunities out there for us. If you believe in the seamless world that I mentioned earlier, then the projection designer's contribution must be considered as important a contribution to the whole as any other member of the creative team! We deserve to be (and should demand to be) considered equal contributors, with all of the equal rights and privileges that come along with that.
There are only a few of us who are full time 100% projection-only designers out there. Hopefully, soon there will be more. The behind-the-scenes work that we are putting in today will hopefully pave the way for future designers so that they don't have to deal with being the "last guy at the party." It is up to us to set the standard for how we, as designers, are dealt with and how we deal with others. It is our job, as the great Wendall K. Harrington says, "to make the world safe for projections."

Cincinnati Reds rebound with 6-0 win over Chicago Cubs
CINCINNATI - Mike Leake pitched 5 2/3 shutout innings for his career-high 13th win and the Reds finally provided some run support to beat the Chicago Cubs, 6-0, Wednesday afternoon at Great American Ball Park.
The Reds avoided a Cubs' sweep after losing the first two games by a combined score of 11-1.
Devin Mesoraco homered in the fourth and went 3-for-4 to break an 0-for-13 slump, and pinch-hitter Jack Hannahan hit a three-run homer in the sixth. It was Hannahan's first homer of the season and the first pinch-hit homer of his career.
Reds relievers J.J. Hoover, Alfredo Simon, Manny Parra and Sam LeCure completed a six-hit shutout.
Leake (13-6) gave up four hits and four walks and struck out six.
"I didn't have my best stuff," Leake said. "Sometimes you have a few games where a couple of pitches beat you. I was able to make pitches and it worked out."
Leake appeared to be the odd man out when spring training started. The Reds were grooming Aroldis Chapman for a job in the starting rotation. They changed their minds and Leake has prospered.
"It's an accomplishment," said Leake of his 13 wins. "You can't plan how your season is going to go. The winds have blown me in the right direction."
The third-place Reds (83-64) are two games behind second-place Pittsburgh, which beat Texas Wednesday afternoon, and 2 1/2 behind first-place St. Louis going into the Cardinals' game with Milwaukee Wednesday night.
Cubs starter Jeff Samardzija (8-12) gave up both homers and all of the Reds' runs in his 5 2/3 innings. He gave up eight hits and three walks and struck out five.
The Reds used small ball in the second for a 2-0 lead. Jay Bruce led off with a single and went to third on Todd Frazier's softly lined single down the left field line. Both players scored on RBI groundouts to second by Xavier Paul and Zack Cozart, who went 0-for-4 and ended his career-high hitting streak at 15 games.
Mesoraco added his ninth homer in the fourth, a one-out solo shot off that sailed 429 feet into the first row of the second deck in left field. The homer was Mesoraco's first in 25 games since he hit two against St. Louis on Aug. 3.
The Reds broke it open in the sixth on Hannahan's 402-foot, three-run homer into the right field seats. It was Hannahan's first since last July 20 for Cleveland against Baltimore.
"It felt like I got the monkey off my back," Hannahan said. "The last two years, I hit home runs on opening day. It was huge."
Hannahan didn't get many pinch-hit opportunities in the American League.
"This is all new to me," he said.
The hit turned a close game into a rout.
"It wasn't easy," Reds manager Dusty Baker said. "Everybody was happy for Hannahan. It was big to get those runs."
Notes: Reds RHP Johnny Cueto threw 60 pitches to live batters Wednesday in the second simulated game of his comeback from a strained muscle below his right shoulder. Neither Cueto, on the disabled list since June 29, nor manager Dusty Baker knew immediately after the session what his next step will be. Cueto says he feels "good and "ready." ... Baker wasn't sure whether LHP Tony Cingrani would go with the Reds on their road trip or stay behind for physical therapy. Cingrani left Tuesday's start in the second inning after aggravating the back problem that sent him to the disabled list from Aug. 25 to Sept. 5. ... The Reds are off Thursday.

The future is here...in an adventure of cosmic dimension. In December, 1999, a multinational team journeys out to the stars, to the most awesome encounter in human history. Who - or what - is out there? In Cosmos, Carl Sagan explained the universe. In Contact, he predicts its future - and our own.
©1997 Carl Sagan (P)1997 Simon & Schuster
"Contact deals with issues...worth pondering.The range and depth of ideas is quite uncommon." (New York Times Book Review)
"Like a good mystery, Contact keeps us curious to the end...ingenious and satisfying." (Newsweek)
"Great book, significant differences from the movie"
My favorite book, written by one of my favorite people (Carl Sagan).
I am writing this review to mainly focus on the major differences between the movie and the book.The book follows the same basic plot as the movie, but with a few exceptions (SPOILER ALERT):
- Ellie's mother is not dead, as in the movie. While Ellie's father passes away, her mother is around throughout her childhood and her adult life.
- Ellie and her stepfather (also not present in the movie) have a strained and reoccurring relationship throughout the book.
- Ellie's childhood, teenage years, and early graduate and internship years are described in a more detail.
- The President of USA has a more prominent, reoccurring role, and is female.
- Ellie has many romantic relationships (i.e., sexual relationships with a lab assistant early in her career, and then with Kent the Russian Scientist later in her career; and sexual tension with Drummond and then to an even greater degree with Vagay), albeit not with Palmer Joss who is the one individual she does have a romantic relationship with in the movie.
- Three machines, not two, are constructed (i.e., in the USA, Japan, and Russia). This was interesting because by the time the story concludes only two machines have been used (or should I say, one has been destroyed and one has been used and possibly is not able to be used again), with the machine in Russia still unused.
- Ellie is not the only individual who makes the trips; several delegates make the trip with her and have their own unique experiences.
- The conversation Ellie has with the alien is much, much more detailed and extensive, and for me was a real highlight of the story.
- Following her voyage in the machine, Ellie learns something interesting about the number for "pi" (i.e., 3.14...) that provides an interesting twist at the conclusion of the story.
In summary, excellent book, and not only because of the writing but due to the narrator's great performance as well. Lefkow did an outstanding job as a true Voice Actor. Most of the supporting characters are male and the narrator (female) did a superb job rising to the challenge of voice acting each male character without sounding odd or goofy.
"Technical problems with this recording - skips..."
This recording has technical issues with it that I noticed after awhile. The recording skips at several instances, for example go to Chapter 11 and at 4:22 the recording skips some of the story. I have verified that it is indeed skipping by looking at the ebook on Google:
Hopefully this will be fixed and re-digitized soon.
"Great story and great science"
I really liked the movie and liked the book even more. The story was very fast paced, maybe even a little too fast with the jumps in time being somewhat agitating. However, the main characters were well drawn but the minor characters somewhat cartoonish. Ellie was the main character and the driving force behind the book. The character of Haddon was also really fascinating. I really learned a lot about astronomy although in parts it was a little above my head. Still, the book made a plausible case for extra terrestrial beings and Sagen's spin on how we were on the brink of destruction rang true. The only part of the book and the movie that I didn't buy was the conspiracy ending. It made no logical sense and the world's governments all rejecting the stories of these five brilliant people was ridiculous. I am still not sure why Sagen ended it this way. I guess he ran into the same problem all science fiction writers run into: how to plot a satisfying believable ending. The reader was really great and I will look for other books she's read.
"Get it"
I have not read the print version, but the audio version is well read. I very much enjoyed listening to this narrator.
Hard to decide; I really like most everything about the story. If I had to say, and to avoid spoilers, I'd say when she was looking up to the sky. You'll know what you get to the part.
I have not, but was considering doing so. However, currently, I don't have any interest in her ither reads.
I would've if I could've. Was done in 3.
Awesome story. Awesomely written. Awesome narration.
"So many choices"
As good as the movie was, this book is orders of magnitude better. I had struggled with whether to choose the abridged, with Ms. Foster, or the unabridged. I am glad I chose the unabridged. As fan of science, I enjoyed hearing Dr. Sagan's perspective on science and religion and I suspect those passages were what got chopped in the abridged. Those plus there were times when the plot wandered about. So if you'd rather focus on the main plot line, the abridged might be a better choice.
Laurel Lefkow's narration was excellent. Only one of the accents annoyed me, the New York street accent. But honestly, that's not her fault – she was true to the description of the accent given in the book.
Whichever version you chose, you will not be unhappy. It's a great audiobook, well worth the listen.
"Enthralling story; mediocre accents by reader"
Incredibly thought-provoking story. Intelligently written without a hint of pretension. Many parts of the story serve as a backdrop for rational discussion regarding the beliefs and faith of scientists and religious practitioners.
Conversations between Dr. Eroway and Palmer Joss.
Well-paced. Bad accents. Perfect for Dr. Eroway's voice
A couple laugh-out-loud and "aha!" moments.
"the movie was good, this was better!!"
Carl Sagen's writing, and his masterful reconciling of the tension between science and religious fanatics. The story and characters are believable and true to form. seeing the movie first, enabled me to visualize the Machine and, enhanced my enjoyment of the story
The book opened up a universe of thought, (bad pun), but really makes you think as Carl says, "Billions and billions of stars, what a waste if we're the only intellegent ones out there".
I love epic fiction and really well writen stories and competent narrators. I listen to 2 or 3 audio books a month, sometimes more.
"Still a relevant story"
This was written in the 80's and it's pretty dated now (Sagan writes about the need for a global information network before the internet). However, this is still an awesome book.
I'm a huge fan of the movie (I watch it every year or two) and there are a lot of differences in the book. Some reviewers have already pointed these out. I'll just say that in some of the differences I favor the movie and in some I favor the book. The conversation between Ellie and the alien/father was a lot more satisfying in the book. Also, the concept of a hidden message in pi was really cool in the book (this was not in the movie).
If you like the movie you need to listen to the book. It's well written, mostly entertaining and the reader gives a good, solid performance.
"Great Story - Not Great Narrator"
The discovery of the signal from Vega
All voices and diction sounded the same - hard to tell characters apart.
Audiobook, read by Laurel Lefkow, 14 plus hours of listening. If you are interested in reading a book that reflects the well known movie starring Jodie Foster, this won't work for you. The characters are there, i.e., Ellie Arroway, Parker Joss, David Drumlin, but the rolls are entirely different. Bill Clinton is not the president. In fact, the United States president is a woman. David Drumlin dies in an attack on one of the machines, but he saves Ellie's life in the process. There are several machines, not only two. She does not have an affair with Parker Joss. The story is much more political in flavor and there is a considerable unloading of Sagan's mind regarding these issues in addition to religion and faith. The actual science of the Vega communique is definitely the catalyst of the story, but it is heavily surrounded by the political and religious ramifications of the event. The version presented by hollywood does not have the depth of the written story, no surprise there … but, the book created by Carl Sagan is an entirely different message than that of the screenplay, which he did not write. Carl Sagan died before the movie was produced; it would have been better had he lived.
Lefkow does a great job in narration, nice listen.
"Great Contact"
Interesting and very well read.
The narration and the differences to the film version
I thought it was Jodie Foster?

On free agent Brad Lidge and his declining fastball:↵
"You'd think it would just be production. But it's not. [The lack of interest is] bizarre to me because I still have a very high swing-and-miss percentage."↵
The last two years, Lidge's fastball has averaged 91.1 miles per hour. His contact rate against of 69.8 percent ranks 14th out of 224 relievers. In limited time in 2011, Lidge's fastball was slower than ever, and yet his strikeouts were still incredibly high. To consider!

After seeing the group's concern and anger, the police responded by killing someone later that very evening. Yes, the Anaheim police killed another man less than a day after murdering Manuel Diaz. As Manuel's blood continued to stain that yard on North Anna Drive, Anaheim police killed a man in a car on West Guinida Lane.

I've go to say that this is a good death metal band and that if they change ane day it will be for good
Morbid Angel Biography - Morbid Angel Discography - All Heavy Metal Bands
Morbid Angel's actual, self-financed debut, Abominations of Desolation, was recorded in 1986 but not released due to the band's dissatisfaction with the results. This album was only available as a bootleg until Earache decided to release the original recordings. 2003.

This is what Morbid sounded like in 86′ with the lead singer from yet another fine FL Death band NOCTURNUS…you hear alot of the original cuts from this great band..mandatory for fans! You also hear a song never released on other albums.."DEMON SEED" and some 1st versions of songs like the "Ancient Ones" first named "Azagthoth" very interesting album!
I must say about this album (demo) that it sounds AWESOME for a demo. It is clean, everything is audible, and it does the young band justice.
It is good to hear all of the original songs on here:
The Invocation/Chapel of Ghouls and The Gate/Lord of All Fevers and Plague sound better with the introductions than off of Altars of Madness! The only complaint I have is that Demon Seed isn't on any of the other albums (and Angel Corpse's cover sounds WAY better).
I like this a lot. It is better than most band's re-releases of old material. Worth it for Morbid Angel fans and even some newcomers.
This is Morbid Angel's first official demo/release and I must say it is very impressive. However, one must be prepared that this is not entirely the streamlined Morbid Angel we have today, but a young band who had been together just three years. Most of the songs on here are re-recorded on other albums, but you just have to hear this if you love this band. Mike Browning, who was once in the godly Nocturnus, plays drums and sings (which he did on Nocturnus' "The Key"), so it sounds quite different. The guitars sound similar to Venom, and you can definatly tell that this is really old stuff. If not great for the time it was recorded (1986), it is an interesting listen.

Cleveland, OH (CNN) — Sometimes there is no limit to how far some people will go to set a world record.
In this case, they set themselves on fire.
A total of 21 people were set aflame Saturday night in Cleveland in an attempt to break the Guinness World Record for "most people performing full body burns."
A representative from Guinness was flown in to make it official.
The event also raised money for the Cleveland Food Bank, and a charity to help impoverished families in South Africa.

Talk about an emotional day on Capitol Hill. Party lines were blurred as Republican Senator Mark Kirk went back to work last week.
There were lots of hugs and handshakes as the senator climbed the 45 steps to his office. This is the first time he's made that trip since he suffered a massive stroke last January..
The steps were lined with Kirk's colleagues. Vice President Joe Biden and Illinois Senator Dick Durbin helped Kirk slowly make us way up the stairs.
Kirk's stroke left him with limited mobility on the left side of his body and it affected his speech. He'll use a four-pronged cane to get around and a wheelchair.
He thanked his constituents for their patience. His goal was to work those steps and he accomplished that goal.
He's now officially back to work and ready, he says, to vote in favor of tougher gun laws.

Dear Bob ...
I work for an enterprise that sports more than 50,000 employees, with a large technology group serving the users' needs. It has your typical project prioritization process, which takes at least a six-month heads-up on new projects and requires that all projects have thorough requirements before considering the project for development.
[ Also on InfoWorld: "How to balance centralized and decentralized planning" | Get sage advice on IT careers and management from Bob Lewis in InfoWorld's Advice Line newsletter. ]
I personally work for a specific business line in said bank, in an operation center of 400 employees with a broad array of job functions. My role is a software development for just our operation center. I'm part of a team of six people, and we've existed for 10 years.
More and more, we are finding other pockets of embedded development groups within business lines and business areas to provide applications quicker than our corporate technology group can. We write applications ranging from small-batch job processing to larger workflow systems; projects take from days to months in our group versus months to years in the corporate technology group.
It seems we are finding more of these embedded development groups as the corporate technology resources are taken up by high-impact projects and the constantly changing landscape of the business environment. Could you speak to this particular arrangement? Is this typical of large corporate technology groups? What typically happens to these embedded technology groups?
I don't have a particular problem to solve. And I'd like to keep it that way.
- Embedded
Dear Embedded ...
To answer the question you asked, yes, it's typical. Big companies have something in common with national economies. In both cases, centralized planning and economic management break down in at least two related places: fine-tuning the balance between supply and demand; and taking care of small communities of interest.
Countries that tried to manage everything centrally, like the Soviet Union, suffered chronic shortages and oversupplies of goods and services. The localized planning that results from a free-market system still suffers shortages and oversupplies, but by comparison they are minor in size and scope.
And scattered throughout the United States are people who love (for example) klezmer music. In a free market but not a centrally planned economy, someone will figure there's a way to make money by taking care of this small constituency.

The future is now for two mobile sellers.
I'm a science fiction nut. Star Wars, Star Trek, Doctor Who: You name it, I probably like it. As such, I grew up dreaming of a future that included all sorts of really cool technology. One technology I looked forward to was video calls on mobile devices. And when Apple Inc. came out with FaceTime, I was in heaven.
This week, two companies debuted apps that create two-way video links between consumers and agents that are really cool. And as you'll find out in my August Internet Retailer magazine story on smartphone apps, cool counts.
Valspar Paint worked with marketing services firm CatapultRPM to bring interior designers into consumers' homes via iPhones and iPads. A consumer sets up an appointment with a Valspar color consultant and at the appointed time the consultant initiates a video link with the consumer. The consumer then uses her iPhone 4S or iPad to scan around a room to give the consultant an idea of what things look like. The consultant displays colors she feels work best. At the end of the free 30-minute session, the consumer can order paint straight from the consultant.
On another front, StubNut.com worked with mobile technology provider Radish Systems to build into its app an audio/visual customer service feature that enables a two-way connection where ticket agents can show buyers views from selected seats, venue maps and more. It's not live video, but it is live audio plus visuals. And most important, it's cool. And I guess I should add that it's highly practical and likely can help drive conversion and upsells.
Live video customer service is something a lot of retailers should be thinking about. It can greatly help a mobile app stand out in the crowd, and it can aid in increasing sales. Cool is the rule in mobile apps. So give live video or audio/visual a thought. Video calls will become mainstream sooner rather than later, and I believe people will come to expect live video customer service one day. Do it now and be a mobile commerce leader.
