- Seconds to Siesta Key Village – The home is located right next to Siesta Key Village. You are a one block walk away from restaurants, bars, boutiques, and ice cream shops.
- Large Home – The home has just over 2,000 square feet on the top two levels and includes 3 bedrooms, 2.5 baths, lanai, and in-unit laundry. We also have a 1,000 square foot ground level that has the main entrance foyer and 2.5 car garage. It comfortably sleeps 8-10 people.

Amazing Siesta Key vacation
My family and I stayed at the shells Villa for a week. My twin 2 year old boys loved the 2 minute walk to the beach and all of the sand toys. The house is beautiful and has everything you need for your stay. We even used the ABC Rental recommendation for booster seats and cribs. We had an amazing vacation and are telling all of our friends and family about Shells Villa. We never used our rental car. We walked to the Siesta Village for dinner every night , less than a 5 minute walk. We loved how convenient the location of the house is to the beach, shopping and restaurants.

Great vacation!
We just returned from a week stay at the Shells villa and we absolutely loved it! We have stayed in other properties on Siesta Key over the years, but this was by far the best one. Not only due to the fabulous location within walking distance to the village, but also the proximity to the beach. We had 10 people in our villa and everyone slept comfortably, the elevator was great for loading groceries and coolers and suitcases and the kids loved the bunk room. If I had to give one "negative" it would be that there is no ocean view at all from the villa, but we didn't mind because we were on the beach all day anyway and then at night we were in town. I would highly recommend this and would absolutely stay here again. Originally posted on HomeAway.

Great Siesta Key accommodations!
We stayed at the Shells Villa and had an outstanding time! The location is ideal - a short walk through a private path to the world class Siesta Key beaches and a block from the Siesta Key village which has a number of restaurants, bars, shops, etc. Almost everything you would need is within walking distance. The accommodations were also outstanding. The house is very spacious and could certainly fit many more than our family of 5. It is also very modern, well kept and provided all the comforts and amenities that you would have at home. We have stayed in many other rental properties but this was our favorite. I would highly recommend it for anyone traveling to Siesta Key. Copied from our HomeAway listing.

Yelp BBB Bing Local Google Places Yahoo! Local
● How big is the home? The Shells Villa has three bedrooms and 2.5 baths. One of the bathrooms is attached to the master bedroom. The total square footage of the home is just over three-thousand (3,000). There are three floors with each floor being 1,000 square feet.
● What's on each floor? The ground floor has the private two and a half car garage, secured storage area, and entry foyer. The main floor contains the kitchen, pantry, dining room, living room, half bath, and lanai. The upstairs floor contains the master bedroom / bath, guest bedroom, bunkbed room, laundry area, linen closets, and common bathroom.
● Does the home have views of the beach or ocean? Although the home is practically on the beach it does not have any direct views of the beach or ocean because it faces Beach Road. If you are standing on the main floor lanai you can see a limited and obstructed view of the ocean and beach. For a zoomed in picture of this view go to our photos page.
● How many beds does the home have? There are two (2) queen size beds, two (2) full size bunk beds, two (2) twin size bunk beds, one (1) sleeper sofa, and two (2) inflatable twin air beds.
● How close to the Village area is the unit? The Shells Villa is just a half block away from where Beach Rd turns into Ocean Blvd. This intersection is the beginning of the Siesta Key Village. The Siesta Key Village or as the locals call it "The Village" is where many of the restaurants, boutiques, bars, and ice cream shops are located. It is considered the heart of Siesta Key.
● Does the home have a pool? No, we don't have a pool in the complex, but there are two public pools within a short drive. 1. The Sarasota YMCA Splash & Water Park Complex at 8301 Potter Park Drive, Sarasota, FL 34242, phone 941-922-9622 has four sections including a splash pool, water slides, sprinkler park, and aquatic center for the serious swimmers. It caters to all swimmers from toddlers to professionals. 2. The Lido Beach Pool is heated, open to the public and is located at 400 Ben Franklin Drive, Sarasota, FL. The pool is open Tuesday through Sunday from 10 am - 4:45 pm. The cost is $4 for adults and $2 for kids/seniors.
● Do you allow pets? Yes, we do allow dogs. There is an additional pet fee of $150. The fee is used to clean the carpets and upholstery after each pet rental.
● Can we bring our dog to the beach? Siesta Key is very pet friendly, but dogs are not allowed on the beach. If you want your dog to experience the water we suggest Bird Key Park. It is located at 200 John Ringling Causeway, Bird Key, Sarasota 34236.
● Are there laundry facilities in the home? Yes, there is a washer and dryer in the unit.
● Does the home have an elevator? Yes, the unit has a private elevator that serves all three floors. The elevator is available for convenience purposes only and should not be considered for individuals or families that require 100% elevator up-time. As this is a single elevator in a private home (not a hotel), if the elevator needs to be serviced we do not have a backup option while the repairs are being made.
● How many TV's are in the home? We have 3 flat screen TVs. There is one 47" flat screen television in the living room and two other 32" flat screen TVs in the bedrooms. Each one has Verizon cable and two have a DVD player. The living room has a Blu-Ray DVD player which also plays standard DVDs and CDs. The TVs cannot be moved to different rooms because cable is only setup in these areas.
● Does the home have a fireplace? Yes, it has a wood burning fireplace in the living room, but we only use it for decorative purposes and request that our renters do not use it to burn wood.
● Does the unit have a gas grill? Yes, there is a Weber gas grill and spare propane tanks stored in the garage that are available for renter use.
● What else is available for renter use? There are sand toys, beach chairs, wheeled cooler, wagon and beach umbrellas stored in the garage. The unit also has bath & beach towels and bed linen. Due to wear & tear and lost items, we cannot guarantee that any specific piece of beach equipment or sand toy will be available at the time of your rental.
● Does the home have a crib or high chair? There is a high chair in the home, but no crib. We routinely work with ABC Rentals at 866-342-2446 and they can coordinate delivery of cribs, toddler beds, or other beach rentals so that the items can be in the home before you arrive. They have reasonable prices and great customer service.
● Does the home have a telephone and Internet? Yes, there is a telephone in the unit that includes free local calls. The unit also has Verizon FIOS high speed Internet access which can be connected to via a Cat5 line or via wireless access. You will need to provide your own computer/laptop.
● Is The Shells Villa owned by a large company? No, the Shells Villa is owned by Orazio & Julie B. We live in Chicago and have three young children (9,7,4) and use the home for family vacations. It's the only home we have in Siesta Key.
● In addition to the base rental rate are there any other fees? There is a standard cleaning fee of $135 for a one week rental. For longer term rentals additional cleanings can be setup at time of booking for an additional $135 per cleaning. There is also a standard damage insurance fee that covers damage up to $1500. For up to date fees and rates see the Rates page on our website.
● Do taxes apply to my rental? Yes, there is a 12% hotel tax. All properly registered properties on Siesta Key are required to pay this amount.
● What is the payment schedule? Our standard payment schedule is to pay $500 per week of rental at time of booking with the remainder due 60 days before check in. For last minute or longer term bookings we adjust the schedule or amount accordingly so that all funds are received 60 days before booking.
● What is your cancellation process? Cancellations made greater than 60 days before check in will get refunded all funds less a cancellation fee of $250 for the first week of rental plus $200 for each additional week. Any cancellations made less than 60 days before check in will forfeit the entire rental amount. If a cancellation is made any funds due to the Tenant will be refunded pro-rata to the individuals who made the initial payment and in the same method.
● Why do you have a 60 day cancellation period? The Shells Villa is not a hotel and it is the only home we own on Siesta Key. On average we book renters 6-9 months out and cancellations made less than 60 days prior to check-in usually result in a vacancy. In order to keep our prices low we strive to rent our home in excess of 48 weeks per year. In order to accomplish our goal we need to book to renters that have firm plans.
● How does the damage deposit work? We no longer require a damage deposit. At time of booking you pay a flat damage fee that covers up to $1500 in accidental damages. In addition, we require a credit card at time of check in that will act as your deposit for damages in excess of $1500 or for violations of our rules and regulations. See Terms and Conditions.
● Where is the management office? Our management company handles all payments, check in & check out, keys, cleaning, maintenance, and emergencies. Their office is located in Siesta Key Village which is a short walk from the property. The address is 5127 Ocean Blvd., Sarasota, FL 34242.

With Simon going out for the year, my thought is we try to trade Booger for a middle round pick to the Colts. Feasible? Likeable?Â
Losing a man will mean trouble.
More trouble than giving up 306 yards rushing?
If the Colts would take that deal I doubt many around here would cry much.
Not feasible because we still are trying to salvage the season.
Sure about that?The Yatta thing says different to me. He's apparently been playing for a LONG time on that bum knee, but they chose NOW, when he may be the second best lineman, and we're starting anew QB to do the surgery? I think the staff has decided it's done.

Assistant Professor
Yale University Dept of Genetics
Dr. Jun Lu is an Assistant Professor of Genetics at Yale University and a core member of the Yale Stem Cell Center. He obtained his doctoral degree in 2003 in Biochemistry at Boston University, where he studied under the guidance of Dr. Katya Ravid with a focus on transcriptional and epigenetic gene regulation in hematopoiesis and cancer. Dr. Lu received postdoctoral training from Dr. Todd Golub at the Broad Institute of MIT and Harvard (now the Broad Institute), where he became fascinated by the emerging field of microRNA, which controls post-transcriptional gene regulation. He has used genomic approaches to highlight the potential of microRNAs in cancer diagnostics, and importance of small RNA function in mammalian cell fate determination.
Since joining the Yale faculty, Dr. Lu has continued to study microRNA function in hematopoiesis, cancer, and pluripotent stem cells. His laboratory has discovered microRNA-mediated control in blood cell recovery and in complex oncogene addiction behavior. In addition, his laboratory is pioneering new miRNA technologies, including in vitro and in vivo functional genetic screens in mouse and high-throughput functional definition of microRNA targeting. Dr. Lu was a Scholar of the William Guy Forbeck Research Foundation and a recipient of the Stewart Trust Fellowship.

Prior to Dartmouth, Carmen was an assistant professor in the Departments of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine and Community Health (Epidemiology) at Brown University. He holds a BS degree in Biochemistry from Lafayette College, and a PhD in the Biological Sciences in Public Health, focused on Cancer Biology, from Harvard University. Carmen was a post-doctoral fellow at the Harvard School of Public Health, where he gained training and interest in molecular epidemiology and epigenetics in cancer. During his postdoctoral training, he began his studies of DNA methylation alterations and variation in bladder cancer, considering not their role in disease etiology but also their clinical importance as biomarkers of risk or prognosis.
At Brown, Carmen expanded his research program to examine the importance of epigenetic regulation in human development and the importance of the intrauterine environment on human health, focusing on mental health. He has successfully designed and executed the Rhode Island Child Health Study, a population-base birth cohort designed to examine the impact of placental epigenetic variation on early life neurobehavioral and other health outcome. He continues to expand his work on the role of epigenetic mechanisms including DNA methylation and microRNA expression in the developmental origins of health and disease, as well as aiming to expand his work to define biomarkers applicable to the clinical setting.

Dr. Wang received her Bachelor of Science degree from the National Taiwan University, her M.Sc. from Northern Michigan University, and her Ph.D. from Case Western Reserve University. Afterwards, she did postdoctoral training and an assistant professorship at the Rockefeller University, and then took her post at McGill University in 1987. Since 1981, Dr. Wang's research has involved investigating the molecular mechanisms controlling the process of aging, at both cellular and organismic levels. Her recent work involves investigating gene-directed programs regulating the ontogeny of age-dependent diseases, and how genetic action, specifically those of the noncoding RNA, controls longevity, integrating knowledge gained from study of extreme long-lived mouse strains to identify key microRNAs for extended life span.

More Peace Corps?
By Angie Drobnic Holan
Published on Wednesday, June 17th, 2009 at 6:15 p.m.
During the campaign, Barack Obama said he would double the Peace Corps to 16,000 by its 50th anniversary in 2011 and push Congress to fully fund this expansion. The Peace Corps sends volunteers to help developing countries.
Obama's first budget fell short of his promise, so we rated the promise Stalled .
Peace Corps fans aren't giving up hope: Congress is considering a measure to substantially increase funding, and advocates hope Obama will eventually approve it. Read our update to find out where the funding stands.

Poured into nonic
A: Brown-deep amber color with a large ,3 finger, eggshell white head.
S: Honey and nutty aromas , caramel malt, slight earthy tones.
T: Vibrant and dry Nelson Sauvin hops compete with sweet orange and honey flavors. Strong but not overwhelming malt backbone- caramel and chocolate. Lovely balance between bitter hop flavors, sweet flavor additions of orange blossom and honey and malt backbone.
M: Medium to slightly viscous body with a moderate to low carbonation.
O: Relic made a truly unique and lovely beer here with The Falconess. The balance between its flavors is excellent and makes this a very satisfying brew. This beer has something for everyone.

Appearance: Arrives with a modest head capping the amber liquid; a few squiggles and dots of lace remain
Smell: Caramel, with a honeyed, spicy tone
Taste: Caramel forward with the honey adding another sweet element; while there is some balancing bitterness, the overall profile leans to the sweet side; boozy, as well
Mouthfeel: Medium to full body with moderate carbonation; warmth in the gullet
Overall: Another nice beer from Relic, though it is a bit sweet for my palate

Wow, it seems like every beer I have from Relic is better than the last. This is my favorite one so far. Relic seems to be all about the super dry beers, which I love, and this one is no exception.
There's a nice fresh floral smell that's obviously from the hops and the honey.
The taste is malty and dry with some really nice lingering aftertaste from the hops and honey. Very floral without being too sweet. The dryness is what makes the mouthfeel so amazing on this beer and most of the others I've had from Relic. It's a bit syrupy but not sweet, and somehow the whole thing ends up being refreshing despite it's heavy taste. There's not much yeast flavor, which I think works well. It's all about the balance between the malt, honey, and hops.

A-Pours a ruby brown color with a mild head. Hard to tell anything else from such a small sample.
S-Definitely a unique nose. Smells like a mixture of cooking spices and bath soaps. Also very malt forward. Sweet, spiced cookies. Herbs too.
T-Sweetness mixed with herbal hop spiciness and that combo of almost rosemary and bath soapiness.
M-Fuller in body and fairly creamy. Moderate bubbles. A bit sticky.
O/D-I can see why some palates would be very pleased by this but its not for me.

Poured from a Relic growlette into a Thomas Hooker Brewing pint glass.
A: Hazy, dark-brown amber color beneath a one-finger head of tan foam which left a bit of soapy lacing on the walls of the glass. Head retention was decent and bits of sediment floated about the glass.
S: Complex aroma of sweet, roasty and nutty malts with derivatives of of cocoa and tea-like scents coupled with a fruity, spicy profile of hops and herbal esters.
T: Flavor mirrors the complexity of the smell, with sweet doses of caramel malt, toffee, coffee and maple syrup paired against a spicy, slightly boozy and fruity array of tastes. Bits of tangerine, plum and raspberries creep across the palate which holds a bittersweet, roasted and spicy character right through the slightly boozy, satisfying finish.
M: Medium-full bodied strong ale with just the right balance of sweetness and hop bitterness to rinse away the complex, fruity sweet cloy of the brew.
O: The Falconess presents imbibers with just the right blend of roasty, fruity sweetness to bolster the 7.2% ABV, which is warming. But, it also exhibits the hoppy bitterness one expects in an American Strong Ale. With such a broad category to fit into, the Falconess could best be described as a very malt-forward, strong IPA. Another Relic classic!

"....prototype batch of this American Strong Ale single hopped with Nelson Sauvin, and orange blossom honey..."
Pours a clear deep copper color with an off-white head, fading fast.
Aroma is strong and flowery. I agree with the lavender observation. A hint of oranges in there too, but very subtle.
Taste/mouthfeel is velvety, smooth, yet sharp and hoppy. Much hoppier than expected for a strong ale. Not exactly true to style. I'm thinking malt, and I get hops. But, really, I am not complaining. Relic does hops well. Moderately dry finish, with some smoothness from the honey.
Overall a nice brew, and I look forward to seeing how the brewer tweaks it more towards the maltier side.

The Falconess is one of Relic's latest creations, single hopped with Nelson Sauvin and finished off with orange blossom honey. It's a cloudy brown colored ale with a decent foamy off-white head and good lacing. The nose hit brings a honey, vegetable, lavender-malt combo. This is unique with a capital U. I swear that this lavender theme is common to most of the Relic brews but no complaints there. This aroma is delicate and tasty for sure with vague milk chocolate prune for good measure. The flavor includes a grainy vegetable-dark fruit medley. I also get some pear-grass tartness and light cereal grain. Not what I would automatically think of as a strong ale, but I do like it. The body is medium and the feel is pretty glassy with a subtle but very effective carbonation. The overriding theme is the vegie-fruit over cereal grain ale. I like it but it might be a bit of a surprise or challenge to some palates. Kudos Relic!

Bob Catlett gets to spend about as much or as little time as he wants to out in his wood working shop, creating anything from small, hand-held sculptures to large wall hangings.
"(I make) A little bit of everything," said Catlett. "I make dragonflies, butterflies, hummingbird arrangements, cattail arrangements, flower arrangements."
But he started off making walking sticks. And making them more for protection than for art. He got his "bite" to become a wood artist in a very literal way.
"My brother and I were wandering, walking down the street getting our exercise and out of the blue a small dog bit me," explained Catlett. "And that really upset me. And when I went back to work the next day, I went out in the woods to hunt up me a tree to cut some walking sticks out of. And I made some walking sticks and it happened to be a bodock (horse apple) tree. And the wood was drop-dead beautiful. And I fell in love with it and I started making walking sticks. And people called and were asking about walking sticks. And then I started doing the artwork and that's how it started."
Bob seems pretty comfortable trying to make most anything. He has an eye for seeing what's in the wood already and carving it out. The wood suggests what is hidden inside the first time Bob looks at it.
"Yes, I call it treasure hunting," said Catlett. "And if you look around at some pieces I picked up, people will look at the piece when I bring it to my house and ask, 'What's that piece of junk?' And I say, 'You don't see what I see. That's a beautiful piece of wood and I see some things in that that I can make some really pretty things from.' "
Bob Catlett has been invited to church groups to demonstrate his woodworking and show his pieces. And I'm sure that a popular part of his address is how oftentimes there is a beautiful piece of work hiding in a rough piece of wood. We all need to hear that.
That, and the way he got started doing what has become his life's avocation.
"I really believe the Lord sent that small dog to bite me to push that button," said Catlett.
In other words, next time you get bit, quit hollering 'ow' long enough to try to discover if the pain is leading somewhere. Could be!

text: Metal Chris of DCHeavyMetal.com recently conducted an interview with J.R. Hayes, vocalist of the Washington D.C.-based grindcore band PIG DESTROYER. A couple of excerpts from the chat follow below.DCHeavyMetal.com: What is the "Book Burner" cover art supposed to represent? Hayes: I'll be honest with you: I didn't really think it that far through. That photograph was taken by my friend Chris [Taylor] in Richmond and it was going to be a seven-inch cover for a Richmond band. It never ended up coming out cause the band broke up and I always admired that picture when I saw it, like, seven or eight years ago. It might have even been longer; I'm not sure. I was just hanging out with him one night and I just kind of randomly asked if he still had it, and he did. As soon as I saw it again, I knew that, at least in my mind, that was the cover of the album. I don't know if I could tell you why. But just something about that image I was very passionate about and [I] felt it was very evocative and, you know, I had Chris dress it up a little bit in his unique style and Pat added some different colors and stuff and I think it turned out really good. DCHeavyMetal.com: Yeah it definitely stands out, it's very unique. Hayes: I think with the cover, you know, me and Scott [Hull, guitarist of PIG DESTROYER] were doing the artwork for this record and we kind of more knew what we didn't want. We didn't want just a book burning, you know, like just completely literal with it, you know, 'cause that just wasn't interesting to us. It wasn't really all that important what the image was as long as it was a strong image. DCHeavyMetal.com: How has working with Adam Jarvis of MISERY INDEX been, because he's a great drummer and it's pretty exciting that he's working with you guys now? Hayes: Yeah, I mean, it's been great. When we parted ways with Brian [Harvey, former drummer of PIG DESTROYER], that was probably the darkest period that we've had as a band. Everybody was really down in the dumps and we didn't really know if the band was even going to continue at all. 'Cause you never know if you're going to find… You can bring in a million drummers and never find the right one. The chemistry has to be right. We were just really lucky in that we already knew Adam as a person and he's a really driven guy and he wanted the job from day one. I don't want to say he like forced his way in there, but he was ready when we came calling, and from the first song that we played together with him, I knew that it was right. I was sold from the first song that we played. DCHeavyMetal.com: Now, "Phantom Limb" came out in 2007 and you had the single-track EP "Natasha" that came out in 2008 and then you guys hadn't really put out anything until this new album. Was a lot of that because of the lineup change? Hayes: After "Phantom Limb", we took a couple of years where we were just playing shows and kind of enjoying ourselves and just kind of supporting the record the best that we could. Then we lost our practice space, so we turned Scott's basement into a real-deal studio. We built it all ourselves. We went the full nine yards, and that took us about a year, and then during that time me and Scott were both working on the last AGORAPHOBIC [NOSEBLEED] record ["Agorapocalypse"] and that was very time-consuming and then when it came time for us to record PIG DESTROYER, that's when everything just kind of fell apart on a personal level and we had like a year where we just either didn't practice or our practices sounded like shit. It was terrible. It was really awful, and to be honest, I would have rather not done the band at all than kept [it] going like that. When you're killing something that you love like that, it's just a horrible experience. DCHeavyMetal.com: So what was the big turnaround then for you guys? What really got you back into it to the point where you're now putting out an album like this? Hayes: Even when Brian was still in the band we had, like, maybe five songs written from this album, and I thought that they were some of the strongest songs that we had written. So I knew that the inspiration to do it was still there, but we just couldn't physically do it. So we needed someone else to come in and inject some youth and some enthusiasm into it and then once you kick it and it's going then we're off. We just needed a kick in the ass, basically, and Adam's a really enthusiastic guy. I'm used to Scott pushing everybody in the band, but Adam's definitely been pushing us as well. He's also a very driven individual. Read the entire interview at DCHeavyMetal.com. You can also listen to the chat using the audio player below.

Based on Alan Parker's 1980 Oscar-winning film and the American TV series of the same name, Fame follows a group of students from New York's School for the Performing Arts through the highs, lows, friendships, romances and hard work necessary in their quest for success.
In addition to her TV roles as Donna in Two Pints of Larger (and a Packet of Crisps) and Carol Groves in Hollyoaks, Casey, who plays Serena in Fame, has appeared on stage in Hobson's Choice, The Vagina Monologues and The Flint Street Nativity. Since his chart-topping days with pop group Steps, Watkins, who plays Nick, has appeared on tour and in the West End in Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat, for which he was nominated for a Whatsonstage.com Award for Best Takeover in a Role. He was seen on TV earlier this year in Celebrity Big Brother.
At this morning's launch, held at the Shaftesbury, Casey told Whatsonstage.com how much she was looking forward to getting her jazz shoes on, and why she's going to hit the gym. "I really wanted to do it just so I can lunge and do jazz hands for a couple of months! But also because it's how I started out, I started out singing and dancing. I'd been doing TV for quite a while and I missed theatre. And it's camp, with a very large C, which is important to me! I think people really respond to how feelgood and young and happy Fame is, and people need that. They need to have a laugh and go out dancing down the aisles. I think that's why (the show) has had umpteen reincarnations, because people respond to the lightness and happiness in it."
Casey continued: "I'm really going to have to limber up somewhat as I haven't danced for years, since I was about 17. I'm quite worried I'm going to be the fat old one considering all the dancers are 17 and stick thin - I'm really going to have to hit the gym hard in the next few weeks. Or I might just get a selection of Eighties songs and dance round the living room to them!"
Watkins said the show is guaranteed to put everyone in a good mood, and drew parallels between his character in the musical, Nick, and himself. He told Whatsonstage.com: "Fame is such a feelgood show, perfect for getting everybody in a good mood. I love it so much, honestly. I saw it a few years back and fell in love with it – and especially the part I'm playing. I said 'I'd love to play that part' at the time, and luckily here I am. I play Nick, who's supposed to be about 15 I think. At the audition, they came round and checked I could look younger if I shaved! He's an actor on a TV show and he's taken time out of his profession to invest in his future by training. He says he wants to become a real actor, not just a TV wanabee, and he wants to invest in his craft so that he can have longevity in his career. Which is funny because that's quite similar to my story, really, so we have parallels; I wanted to invest in my future and have longevity as a performer, which is why I trained as an actor after Steps."
Watkins recalled: "I was incredibly nervous at the audition for Fame. Everybody thinks once you're in the public eye you just walk into the role, but it doesn't matter who you are, you've still got to audition. You might be able to jump the queue a bit if you have a name, but you've still got to get the job!"
He added: "Fame is a phenomenon. The TV show was absolutely huge and it's such a big brand name anyway. But what lots of people don't realise is the musical is very different to the TV show. It's still about students in a performing arts school, but it's completely re-written for the stage with, I think, even better songs. It's so exciting. I want to see everyone at the theatre up on their feet in their legwarmers and headbands, dancing along!"
Fame first opened in the West End at the Cambridge Theatre in 1995, when it was nominated for two Laurence Olivier Awards for Best New Musical and Best Choreography. It returned in 1998 for a run at the Prince of Wales Theatre. The musical's last West End run began in October 2000 at the Victoria Palace (its second outing at that venue, where it also played in 1997) before transferring back to the Cambridge in September 2001 and then in 2002 to the Aldwych where it closed last April to make way for Dirty Dancing (See News, 24 Feb 2006).

Degrees and Certificates Awarded
The Associate in Arts or the Associate in Science degree will be awarded to those students who pursue a course of study leading to transfer to a four-year college or university. The requirements for the degree are as rigorous as those at the four-year college or university and upon completion of the requirements students are admitted with junior standing to those colleges and universities that endorse the General Education Compact Agreement sponsored by the Illinois Board of Higher Education. Students may select either the associate in arts or the associate in science degree. Students planning to receive the bachelor of science usually select the associate in science degree and students planning to receive the bachelor of arts select the associate in arts degree.
The Associate in Engineering Science degree will be awarded to those students who pursue a course of study leading to transfer to a four-year college or university with a major in engineering. Degree requirements differ significantly from the associate in arts and associate in science degrees so students need to follow precisely the curriculum model for the associate in engineering science degree. Students interested in pursuing a bachelor's degree in architectural or chemical engineering should consult a counselor before choosing the degree path to follow.
The Associate in Applied Science degree will be awarded to those students who meet the specific requirements based on occupations, semi-technical and technical curricula. Students pursue this degree in order to obtain training for immediate employment in business or industry.
The Associate in Liberal Studies (ALS) degree will be awarded to those students who complete a liberal course of study. The ALS degree provides a student with a unique opportunity to develop an individualized program that crosses traditional academic disciplines. This degree permits a student to develop a learning program that may be focused toward a career, personal interest, and enrichment or a combination of these objectives. For more information, contact the Dean for Continuing Education.
Certificates will be awarded to students who complete the prescribed program model as listed in the catalog. Certificate programs are occupationally oriented and vary from six credit hours to one year of study. Certificate programs requiring less than 16 credit hours are not eligible for federal Title IV financial aid or the Illinois Monetary Award Program grant.

Daily Dispatches From The Global Scene
It struck more than a few observers as odd that Organic designer John Patrick chose to present his Spring '10 collection at, of all places, a steakhouse. What would Michael Pollan say? Doesn't the production of one pound of beef require something like 100 gallons of water and emit about 15 lbs. of CO² into the atmosphere? Isn't swearing off burgers and filet mignon the greenest thing you can do? "I eat meat!" protested Patrick at the presentation this morning. "I eat organic meat, and I eat it in moderation, and I buy it from family farms that are local to me. But, look, it's a choice. You can't make everyone a vegan." As Patrick went on to explain, the choice of the old-school Keens Steakhouse in Midtown as his location had everything to do with its speakeasy vibe, which jibed with the new Organic collection's Krazy Kat club inspiration and had nothing whatsoever to do with meat. "That was the idea," he reiterated. "Speakeasy." It was suggested that, perhaps, Patrick could split the difference and think of Keens as a steakeasy. "OK," he said. "Don't make me get on my bicycle and bike out of here."

Picked up a bottle for on site consumption at Highland Stillhouse pub the other day. Was curious to see what a "few" years in bottle has done for this beer.
The beer pours a blackish brown color with pretty decent head retention and lacing. Considering the age, carbonation seemed to be OK in this beer, which was a concern. The nose is the best feature at this point in the beer's life, as I pick up light vanilla, considerable peat, some coffee and light chocolate. On the palate, the flavor profile has softened considerably. I still picked up all the same characteristics I noticed in the nose, but there really is nothing like the intensity of flavor I was getting from Paradox beers back when they were first released. Mouthfeel is now very soft and creamy, and the finish was a bit short. Alcohol is still very well integrated into the flavor profile, and there was no heat on the finish.
This was a fun beer to try (prices were reasonable as well - I think Stillhouse prices are the same for this beer as they likely were 5 or 6 years ago), but on the other hand, it's pretty clear that the beer's best days are behind it. If I owned any more Paradox beers (which I don't), I would want to drink them up ASAP, as it seems fairly apparent they are not going to improve further with age (at least that was my impression, based on this beer).

Our group of 4 Beer Advocate members did a recent small bottle tasting of high alcohol brews.
Among the 12 brews tasted was; Paradox Port Dunas Americam Double imperial Stout from BrewDog. This brew did not do well in our tasting finishing dead last in 12th with an average
rating of 3.50. Although the age of this bottle was likely the reason. It was 6 years old. The other
BrewDog we tasted (Tokyo) finished 4th with an average rating of 4.25

Served in a Dogfish Head snifter.
Digging the Smokehead and Arran batches, I continue to search out more batches of this series. This one pours a very dark and murky black-brown (imagine pouring chocolate syrup into your favorite cola) topped by a minimal covering of dark khaki foam. The nose comprises whiskey, roasted malts, booze, old oak, and a sprinkling of vanilla here and there. The taste brings in more of the same, with the whiskey so far front and center that everything else is left in its shadow and wake. It's a bit much at times, but it somehow still works to some degree. The body is a stolid medium, with a rather light carbonation and a sorta/kinda slick and fluid feel. Overall, a nice enough entry, but it lacks the character of the other barrels. Perhaps this particular whiskey is of the more mellow variety?

BrewDog rocks, but I had no idea this beer was hard to find. A few weeks ago someone on Facebook said that an AJ's Fine Foods had a few bottles of it. I asked him about it, know it was on the "list,", and he said to hurry as the beer is not only limited but also hard to find. So I left work, headed to AJ's and grabbed a bottle. I haven't had this before, but I do like scotch. I am not sure what bottle we have, but I am sure they are all similar. I am not even sure the bottle says. I will look in a little bit when I open the bottle.
I was hoping to review a bomber tonight, but we only have 3 cold and nothing sounded good. I hope I made the right decision with the BrewDog. Cheers!
In the Glass: Flat. The beer is flat. There is no head at all, and no lace to speak of. Granted, the bottle says, "best before 02/02/10," but it's 10%. It should cellar well. This makes me nervous. I hope, for $10, we didn't get a bad bottle. This is not a beer I can just run to Total Wine and grab. I hope it smells good. Let's see.
Nose: Booze. Then sweet. Then back to booze. Holy cow, that smells like straight alcohol. That puts me at ease that it will taste OK. I like big beefy stouts like this, and I am on a whiskey kick lately. I hope this tastes as good as it smells.
Smelling this I want some ice cream and a spoon. If I didn't know what this was, I would think it was a spirit before I would consider it a beer. Here we go… I am still nervous, you know!
Flavor: Whoa. It's flat, but that doesn't affect the flavor. I know it's only 10%, but it smelled like booze. It's quite balanced, and while there isn't much carbonation, it still has a great flavor. I am not getting as much whiskey as I wanted, but it is a stout that will get great as it heats sup.
Oh, the label says, "Port Dundas." This is batch 013… Not sure what that means, but BeerAdvocate has them listed as separate beers. I would love to do a vertical of them all, but I fear that day has passed.
Mouthfeel: It's flat. There is nothing going on here. It drinks like water. If you move it around in your mouth, you get SO much more flavor. The whiskey flavors really come out, and it puts just enough carbonation in it to make it enjoyable. This isn't the best beer I have had, but it is a good example of an American double stout. I do want more whiskey flavor, though.
Aftertaste: The finish is sweet, but it doesn't last as long as I want it to. It almost becomes drying, but after a few swallows, it gets really mellow. For a beer that has 10% ABV it is drinkable and offers a lovely experience. I just saw on the label, "imperial stout aged in a former Port Dunas 166 cask." I guess that explains it!
It's good, but it's not worth writing home about. I am glad it wasn't bad considering what it looked like in the glass. I do like BrewDog, and we have a few more beers from them on the list. Challenge accepted! Cheers!

Poured from an 11.2 oz bottle into a goblet. Batch 13. This was bottled on 02/02/08 which is a little over 5 years ago as of this review.
Appearance: Pours a very dark brown (just a shade lighter than black) and leaves no head whatsoever.
Smell: Sweet vanilla, oak and whiskey lead the way along with dark chocolate and malts.
Taste: Follows the nose, but the flavors are a bit subdued. Vanilla, oak, chocolate, malts, plums and figs. All are very balanced and surprisingly light. Alcohol is very well hidden.
Mouth-feel: Nearly completely flat which I'm not a huge fan of. Medium bodied and this one goes down really smooth.
Overall: This was an interesting stout. The lack of carbonation didn't help it though - the flavors were all great and so well balanced, but the lack of carbonation was very noticeable. Definitely still an enjoyable stout and the age has really mellowed this one out.

The aroma of this beer is far better than the taste. It smells of sweet, sugary alcohol, whiskey, chocolate and cola.
A lot of this is not present in the flavour. It is surprisingly thin (which I enjoyed, but diminishes its ability to have flavour intensity, I'm sure). It is a very sweet stout with a nice whiskey smoothness. It's not as hot as I would expect from the smell. The alcohol is not really up front. There's chocolate flavour, but its masked a lot by the whiskey and sweetness. The cola I smelled is not in the flavour profile. It's enjoyable because I like strong, sweet beers, but I wouldn't buy it again considering the high price tag. It's the oldest beer I've ever had. Over 5 years old. Damn. I wasn't old enough to buy this when it was bottled. It was a nice experience, but I can get better sweet alcohol from Blithering Idiot at a much more reasonable price.

'Technical problems' led to rescue delay
Technical problems with four search-and-rescue helicopters based at RAF Valley delayed a rescue of the crew on a stricken cargo ship, according to a report published today.
The Marine Accident Investigation Branch said all the helicopters were unserviceable on the night the ship ran aground.
Helicopter crews from RAF Leconfield in Yorkshire were "obliged to make an extremely hazardous flight in very poor conditions across the width of the country" to reach the stricken ship, named Carrier, that was stranded off the coast close to Colwyn Bay.
