In the Locked Room & Ghost Patrol Press Reviews
31 August 2012
'Ghost Patrol...Stuart MacRae's three-hander about the scars of war, to a libretto by Louise Welsh, does everything modern opera is supposed to do: it asks questions, stirs the imagination, challenges complacency, grabs the heart. Oh, and it renews the art form, too. You come out feeling different – about love, life and death. And yet, despite such complexity of thought and feeling, MacRae and Welsh make opera seem simple: they get the essentials right…Matthew Richardson's production turns a chamber setting into grand opera, virtuosically designed by Samal Blak and vividly acted by James McOran-Campbell, Nicholas Sharratt and Jane Harrington. Welsh's harrowing story, summed up in the line "Only the dead have seen the end of war", lays bare the lasting trauma of military action, which MacRae drapes in a score as sophisticated as it is soulful – beauty and pain indivisible'.
***** Financial Times
'A double-bill of new operas by composers Huw Watkins and Stuart MacRae, as part of Scottish Opera's co-commissioning scheme with Music Theatre Wales, made for a gripping experience at the Traverse. In In the Locked Room…Watkins's score shifts between bustling and slow, jerky and angular to mysteriously reflective…it gains dramatic ground as the story unfolds…MacRae's opera, with no-holds-barred libretto by Louise Welsh, is immediately exciting, making exacting and effective use of rhythm to portray the ugliness and trauma fo war…both scores benefit from excellent casts and dependable conducting from Michael Rafferty.'
****The Scotsman
'Two new chamber operas, co-produced by Scottish Opera and Music Theatre Wales, deal with the claustrophobia of unhealthy relationships and stinted dreams…David Harsent's text [for In the Locked Room] is an adaptation of a Thomas Hardy short story and is adeptly done, distilling Hardy's themes into streamlined – and singable – dialogue…Huw Watkins's well-judged music paints the characters with care and responds eagerly to the dialogue…The orchestration is transparent enough for the singers to be easily heard but keeps plenty of interest…Set in a chic but empty bar, the atmosphere [in Ghost Patrol] is oppressive and Stuart MacRae's busy, murky score serves it well.'
*** The Herald.
'The cool, lean libretto for In the Locked Room has been adapted by David Harsent from a short story by Thomas Hardy…but it is Huw Watkins' score which brings it to dramatic life. Leanly but purposefully orchestrated, it is marked by a tensely repressed sensuality and som beautifully modulated vocal writing…thanks to the sustained and enmeshed economy and focus of the text and music, I was gripped throughout. Michael McCarthy's lucid and supple production is expertly executed by the cast of four, and there's an outstanding performance by that lovely young soprano Ruby Hughes as the wife…[Ghost Patrol is] Crisply staged by Matthew Richardson, the piece benefits from the committed performances of Jane Harrington, Nicholas Sharratt and James McOran-Campbell…Michael Rafferty conducts both scores with finesse, and the orchestral playing is of a high standard…this is a thought-provoking double bill of authentic musical quality.'
****In the Locked Room ***Ghost Patrol
The Daily Telegraph
'There's no spare flesh on [David] Harsent's lapidary text, nor on [Huw] Watkins's vocal writing: the textures he draws from the 14 instrumentalists in the pit have a Britten-like economy. It's a beautifully crafted piece of music theatre, unfussily staged by [Michael] McCarthy with fine performances from Ruby Hughes as Ella, Hakan Vramsmo as Pascoe, Louise Winter as the randy owner of the house, and Paul Curievici as Ella's money-obsessed husband…[In Ghost Patrol] The performances – James McOran-Campbell and Nicholas Sharratt play the ex-soldiers – are first-rate.'

The Sundance Film Festival is now underway as industry veterans and cinephiles alike in Park City right now are shuffle from screening to screening looking for the next big thing. One of the films that made a splash there yesterday is the coming of age dark comedy "Submarine" which made its debut last year at the Toronto International Film Festival. At TIFF the film picked up some extremely positive reviews, comparing it to the work of Wes Anderson, Noah Baumbach and Alexander Payne and The Weinstein Company quickly snatched the film up for distribution.
If the reviews weren't enough to get you excited, "Submarine" is also the directorial debut of Richard Ayoade. Best known for starring in the hit Britcom "The I.T. Crowd" the actor/writer/director has a lot of experience behind the camera as well, helming the hilarious cult series "Garth Marenghi's Darkplace" and music videos for Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Vampire Weekend and Arctic Monkeys (Alex Turner of the Arctic Monkeys scored "Submarine"). The film was produced by Ben Stiller from an acclaimed novel by Joe Dunthorne and stars newcomers Craig Roberts, Yasmin Paige as well as Sally Hawkins, Noah Taylor and Paddy Considine. Since we missed it in Toronto and London this is definitely on our must see list at the fest. To coincide with the films U.S. debut, MTV Movies has just released the first poster for the film. Larger version is below.
Not much we can say about the poster except that we're glad it didn't go for the hand drawn, cut and paste look that so many "quirky" films tend to lean on. Though the font does look a bit familiar. Ayoade currently has his plate full with a possible adaptation of the Dostoevsky novella "The Double" and the comic drama "The Apostles Of Infinite Love" but he seems like a skilled multi-itasker. He recently made time to direct an upcoming episode of "Community."
Here is the full synopsis for "Submarine" from the Sundance Film Festival website.
Meet Oliver Tate, a precocious 15-year-old whose worldview is exceedingly clever and largely delusional (he imagines the outpouring of grief that would spread through Wales if he died). Oliver carries a briefcase, doesn't agree with everything Nietzsche said but concedes that he had some interesting points, peruses the dictionary for new words (fla•gi•tious, adj, wickedly shameful), and suspects his mother of having an affair with their New Age neighbor. But foremost on Oliver's mind is finding a girlfriend. Enter Jordana Bevan.
Adapted from Joe Dunthorne's wry novel and bolstered by aesthetic wit, fabulous performances, and a clever score by Andrew Hewitt (with songs by Alex Turner), Submarine evokes the spontaneity and breezy cinematic cool of the French New Wave. Ayoade sidesteps coming-of-age clichés to explore a kid who's too self-absorbed to realize that to know somebody, you first have to remove yourself from the center of the universe.
Expect to hear a lot more about the film as it screens all week at Sundance -- we assume a trailer will probably emerge during the festival as well. If you don't manage to catch it at the fest, it will be released in the U.K. on March 18 and in North America this summer. -- Cory Everett

I'm excited to see this and hear the soundtrack! Alex Turner is an amazing musician. If you have the chance you all should look up the bands he's involved with (Arctic Monkeys, The Last Shadow Puppets).
BradZuhl | January 22, 2011 7:19 AM
Where does homage cross the line into rip-off? I didn't notice the Harold visual reference but the clips I've seen from the film look like this guy worships Wes Anderson. Which is nice, but why go out and make a Wes Anderson movie if you're not Wes Anderson? Or a Hal Ashby movie if you're not Hal Ashby?
The Playlist | January 22, 2011 7:11 AM
I must admit, while I'm greatly looking forward to this film, anything that seems Wes Anderson-like scares the life out of me in that i think it can potentially be hyper-loathsome. So I'm cautiously optimistic.
Christopher Bell | January 22, 2011 7:08 AM
Maybe so, but I'm down for anything new that resembles "Harold and Maude."
Meredith | January 22, 2011 5:48 AM
I completely agree with Jane! No offense meant. I love Richard Ayoade and I am so excited about the movie but again..."the vibe, look and theme of this character have endlessly-endlessly been [borrowed]."
jane | January 22, 2011 4:52 AM
Cool news; genuinely do not intend any offense but I'm sorry my heart screams, "Ouch that's a Harold knock off" aka Bud Cort. Direct rip of the iconic amazing protagonist's aesthetic in the great Hal Ashby's, "HAROLD AND MAUDE"!! The hair, the suit and tie..the affected wide eyes. Harold 1.0...or 0.8, since the vibe, look and theme of this character have endlessly-endlessly been [borrowed].

The demand for propane gas has been so high this winter that suppliers can not get it to the customers fast enough, and it's causing a shortage felt by states across the country.
Now the government is stepping in, taking steps to ease regulations and prevent price gouging.
Alabama governor Robert Bentley spoke these words as he signed a state of emergency declaration:
"With life-threatening, cold temperatures expected once again, it's important for residents to have necessary heating resources available for survival."
Local suppliers disclaim that, saying this is not a "shortage" in the sense that there is not enough gas. It's just not getting where it needs to go at an optimum speed. They also made sure to mention that it's not their fault.
"From my understanding, it is not a local supplier shortage, it is a national shortage," said Kathrine Carson, director of Lee County Emergency Management.
WTVM visited propane suppliers across East Alabama, but none of the employees could spare one minute to speak on camera, because they are working non-stop to ship the gas they have as quickly as possible.
So far, residents don't have to worry about getting service cut off to their homes, but suppliers are telling chicken farmers they'll get to them when they get to them. Baby chicks can't survive in low temperatures, and Alabama farmers are concerned that large numbers of them will die if they run out of propane.
Governor Bentley's declaration is designed to eliminate any government red tape standing in the way of buying, and shipping gas.
"When the governor declared the state of emergency, it enacts the ability for local homeowners who have a tank that they usually buy fuel for, they can actually go out and buy it from another supplier if they need to," said Carson.
Governor Bentley added, "It alleviates all the rules and regulations, it removes those, so that transportation can take place, people can haul longer periods of time."
Local propane suppliers said they are still able to handle all the customers they currently have, but they're not taking on any new ones for the time being.
We're not seeing a worst case situation yet, and if everyone does their part, we may avoid facing serious consequences in Alabama before the winter is over.
"I think people should be conserving the propane that they use. Just be conscious of what you're doing and not wasteful," said Carson.
In addition to promoting the rate of supply, the Governor's declaration prevents companies from price gouging. It's officially defined as prices that exceed the 30-day average by 25 percent or more. So far, prices in Alabama have not yet spun out of control.

Happy Genes Day, lovely ladies! It's Chelsea, your resident fashion and beauty intern, letting you know today is a great day to look your best and Do Good. Lancôme has dubbed today Genes Day and, in honor of the celebration, will be giving $7 from every bottle of their much-lauded Génifique Youth Activating Concentrate sold today to St. Jude Children's Research Hospital in Memphis, TN.
It may be a beauty splurge at $78 for a 1oz. bottle, but if it'll give me glowy, even skin in only seven days or even make me look a quarter as gorgeous as celeb devotees like Christina Hendrix, Julia Roberts or Veronica Webb, it's worth it.
And did I mention that part of the sales (up to $100,000) go to St. Jude Children's Research Hospital? If you get a chance, visit your local Lancôme counter or lancome-usa.com for your chance to improve your skin and the lives of children in need.

Hi all,
I found a pretty nice Super M for sale in my area, and i'm looking to buy.. How much would it be worth? Rough idea? Some info about it.. it is in good shape physically, restored or at least painted around 5-10 years ago. with a shwartz wide front on it, (i think the narrow front is somewhere on the farm too), one new rear tire, everything is there(lights, gauges, ect.) and a set of cultivators i believe. I dont see any cracks in the block, or any major problem.. I'm just looking at what it might be worth.. I thought like 2500 to 3000.. (i'm going to start low as possible, but i'm looking for highest i should go). Thanks.

Busy hands and a busy mind make a busy man.
And that's what Justin Strode has been for four years now.
"Some things we do have to be done by hand,'' said Al Kennickell, president of Kennickell Printing, where Strode works. "Some things can't be automated and when they can't be automated, somebody's got to do it. And he chips in and he's just like everybody else and he does his part.''
Justin, who suffers from Cerebral Palsy, started working at Kennickell two days a week shortly after completing Windsor Forest High School, and not long after WTOC introduced him to viewers as a member of the Knights football program.
"Actually,'' said Justin's mother, Esma Campbell, "he still goes to the Windsor Forest games and he and my husband still go on the sidelines.''
That was one opportunity Campbell helped arrange for her son after ensuring that he would attend mainstream schools such as Georgetown Elementary and Windsor Forest.
"All I knew was he has to have the same experiences I had,'' she said. "He has to have every opportunity.''
Those opportunities have continued since high school for Justin, who is now 29.
Judge Louisa Abbott, after seeing WTOC's original story on Justin, worked through the Downtown Rotary to pursue work possibilities for him. And Kennickell Printing came up with a position that has benefited him and the company ever since.
"It goes both ways,'' said Al Kennickell. "We enjoy having him here, everybody enjoys having him here. And the days he is here are days that are just a little bit better for us than the days he's not.''
"He stuffs envelopes. He puts tags on jobs that we have,'' said Joyce Minor, who works alongside Justin. "And he's especially concerned with JCB and Gulfstream. He loves those jobs.''
Minor is Justin's supervisor at Kennickell. And one of his many work friends.
"He brightens the place up because he makes everybody speak,'' she said. "Nobody comes through without saying good-morning to Justin.''
"It's very different than being in a sheltered workshop where everybody there is working with a disability,'' adds Campbell. "That's not the normal way we live. So this is a more normal approach and it's been very fulfilling.''
All Campbell has ever wanted was for her son to live a normal life.
And he does, except he's normally more active than most people. When he's not working, he's doing physical therapy four days a week at the St. Joseph's Candler Wellness Center, or he's doing therapeutic horseback riding, or he's watching an almost endless stream of sports at home.
"I think it's made him happier, I think it's made him maintain his health better,'' said Campbell, who has been told by doctors that it if wasn't for his job and his other activities, Justin would likely be in a wheelchair by now. "I'm sure people in Justin's position could end up with depression and other things that don't make life very fulfilling. And Justin doesn't really have time to sit around and think about those things.''
But Justin and his co-workers at Kennickell keep making time for each other.
And both hope to have much more time together in the future.
"He's been with us for four years, four great years,'' said Minor. "And he does really good, he does really good.''
"We hope,'' adds Al Kennickell, "that he's here for a long, long time to come.''

How much do you spend on groceries a month?
Original post made by Tryingtosave on Jan 5, 2013
on Jan 5, 2013 at 9:42 pm
We are now a family of 4 and spend about $2,000 per month-when we were 6 we spent $2,700 + per month.
We also eat out a lot which- is a separate budget-a decent meal for 4 in a Palo Alto restaurant costs around $250 with cheap wine in our experience.
on Jan 5, 2013 at 10:23 pm
Just impossible to make a comparison. There are two many unknowns and variables.
Do you make lunches to take to school or work, or buy lunch every day? Do you have young children who eat smaller quantities of family meals, or teenage boys who eat almost non stop and often bring their friends for raiding the refrigerator? Do you do laundry at home or in shared facilities than need quarters? Do you have a lot of sports clothes and once again a load of jeans for small children could be a week's worth of clothes, whereas a load of jeans for teenagers could be for just 2 or 3 days clothes. Do you have a lot of dry cleaning, diapers, alcohol, bottled water, soda, Starbucks, etc. etc. as part of your monthly expenditure?
Try breaking down your expenses into smaller categories and see if you can make some compromises rather than trying to compare yourselves to a family of the same size but with different ages and lifestyles.
on Jan 6, 2013 at 12:13 am
Wow, I'm still reeling over Sharon's posting about spending $250 for four for a "decent meal" in Palo Alto. Excessive, to say the least. Just how many calories are being consumed? Sheesh.
I have three older children and we eat out a lot too, but cooking at home saves so much more money. I usually spend about $20-$35 per homecooked meal, sometimes less. That equals about $700-$1000/month on meals. Too bad we offset it with eating out on weekends! But when we go out, we skip appetizers and desserts. Or if we order them (rarely), we share them. There is no need for each person to have their own appetizer and dessert.
Places like Fresh & Easy (off Rengstorff in Mtn. View) have pre-marinated/prepackaged, fresh meals for timesavers.
Trader Joe's also has frozens for meals, at least for lunches.
I agree with "Parent" that people should stop buying coffee at coffee shops. Americans are endlessly addicted to these $5 coffees. Make coffee at home in the morning, for Pete's sake.

Henderson firefighters have contained a fire at a family's home.
The fire broke out around 7 o'clock Wednesday in the 1300 block of Evenside Street in Henderson.
The fire chief tells us the fire was contained to the attic of the home, but some rooms did suffer damage.
The family who lives there was at a church service, so no one was inside when the fire started.

Parties to the California Public Utilities Commission's investigation of the San Onofre nuclear generating station outage are crying foul over ongoing procedural delays and a narrow Scoping Memo issued Tuesday, Jan. 28. Parties ask CPUC to stop paying for these severely damaged reactors now and plan for permanent replacement resources instead.
January 8, 2013
Two stricken California reactors may soon redefine a global movement aimed at eradicating nuclear power. They sit in a seismic zone vulnerable to tsunamis. Faulty steam generators have forced them shut for nearly a year. Tell CPUC 'No nukes!' Shut down San Onofre permanently!

CATEGORIES New Releases, DVD Reviews, New on DVD, Home Entertainment, Features, DVDs, Movies, New Releases, CinematicalBalls of Fury
Does anything more need to be said other than that Balls of Fury is a ping pong action movie co-starring Christopher Walken? Frankly, that's enough for me. But if you happen to be a Bruce Lee fan, the fact that it's a spoof of Enter the Dragon may entice you. The comedy details a former Pong phenom called Randy (Dan Fogler), who is sent on a special mission to nab his father's killer, Feng -- who just so happens to be played by Walken. With Maggie Q and a spiritual guide, Randy gets back into ping pong shape and heads to Feng's jungle compound and his ping pong tournaments.
This DVD includes an alternate ending, a small serving of deleted scenes, a comedy bit about, erm, ball handling, and a "Making Of" featurette that includes cast and table tennis guru Wei Wang, who also helped out this year's other ping pong movie, Ping Pong Playa.

Blade Runner
It has been 25 years since Blade Runner first hit theaters, and now we're getting one hell of an anniversary DVD gift just in time for the holidays. Originally stemming from the mind of Philip K. Dick, the film is a cyber-heavy vision of the future where replicants (human clones) are whipped up to work on colonies outside of Earth. However, when some escape and head to the planet, Deckard (Harrison Ford), a cop and replicant terminator, must put aside his visions of retirement and stop them. The flick also starred the likes of Rutger Hauer, Sean Young, Edward James Olmos, and Daryl Hannah -- and of course, it's one of the biggest and most loved sci-fi films to hit the screen.
Fans can choose one of 3 main sets -- the 2-Disc Special Edition, the 4-Disc Collector's Edition, or the mack daddy of collections: The Ultimate Collector's Edition. The 2-Disc set offers Ridley Scott's new, final cut of the film with three commentaries, plus a feature-length documentary on the film's creation. If that's not enough, you can up it two more discs and also get all the different cuts -- theatrical, international, and director's, as well as another disc with 90 minutes of rare footage and featurettes. Finally, you can add one more disc and store it all in a sweet, metal case. The extra DVD shares a "Workprint Version" that changes things up a bit (such as no Deckard narration and no happy ending) and includes one more featurette and commentary.

It is hot inside the San Antonio Spurs AT&T Center – steamy and sauna-like – and thousands of fans are fanning themselves.

The sweltering heat has become a problem for players, LeBron James asked to come out of the game midway through the third quarter, and while out he and Chris Bosh in a time out put a bag of ice on their neck to try and cool down.
"They're trying to smoke us out of here". Great "wired" sound from @KingJames on abc about failed air conditioner at nba finals—
Josh Krulewitz (@jksports) June 06, 2014
ESPN's Doris Burke reported that it was 88 degrees near the court.
"It doesn't affect us anymore than them," Gregg Popovich told Burke during a sideline interview. "It's a bad situation."
On bright side of the sweltering AT&T Center heat, I've never burned calories while watching a game before. Feels like HS wrestling practice—

Jordan Burroughs (@alliseeisgold) June 06, 2014
The air conditioning is out at the AT&T Center. Before the fourth quarter, a public address announcer apologized for the malfunction, which was immediately met with boos from fans.
"An electrical failure for the power that runs the AC system in the AT&T Center has occurred. We are continuing to work on resolving the problem," the Spurs said in a statement released during the game. "We apologize for any inconvenience."

a little bit smoke on top of a faint, but quintessential Belgian candied sweetness. but dry all and all. this beer is not nutty or rich like many brown ales and the sweetness doesn't trail into an after taste. not very complex and goes down smooth because of thin it is. my drinking companion gets a sour flavor in addition to the smoke

Poured from the bomber into a chalice.
Really not impressed with this one. Big licorice flavor, overpowering. Not much malt flavor, no hops. The aroma is a bit spicy, lots of yeast characterin aroma.
The mouthfeel is alright, bit thin for the style. It's a decent beer, but the spices are overwhelming, need to back off that licorice flavor.

pours a dark dark brown out of a bomber purchased at table and vine,taste is mellow with hints of charcoal and oak. Its very dry. Drinkability is tough for me due to the dryness. A beer I am glad i tried, but the entire bomber was a little too much for me.

Slight haze, deep brown with coppery edges. Dense tan/beige cap, sort of thin, coated both the beer and the sides of the glass - great stickage and good head retention. Yeast aroma, bready, fruity, some fresh and some dried, gingerbread. I had high hopes after giving a few good sniffs, but was let down by the flavour profile - most of the same character was there from the aroma (plus more plum and a bit of cocoa), but tasted a little out of balance. It was really dominated by the fruity, raisin, and plum character and didn't leave a lot of room for malts. Raisins and plums lingered in the finish. Dry, medium bodied, moderate carbonation with a little creaminess, slight warmth. Easy drinking, but lacking some of the flavour complexity to really make it a great dubbel.

Very cloudy, some sediment, good white foamy head and lacing. Has a fruity, hoppy scent to it. Applish.
Has an extremely sweet taste to it. Very fruity. Kind of flat and dry. Has some apple taste to it. Has a hoppy aftertaste. To be honest, it has a flat taste and is a little bit too sweet for me. I'm not a huge fan, but it's quality.

Really? Only one other person has reviewed this beer?
I like this brewery and I like the brewer. He once told me that he brews some of his beer line with a lower ABV and hop content because once he reached 40, his body couldn't process alcohol and beer like it did when he was younger. Now *there's* a thinking brewer. Thanks, Will.
As with other dubbels, the color is nothing spectacular-- a rather dull brown with a thin head and medium bubbles. If the color had a sound, it would be "thud." Nice nose, however, with the requisite bready yeastiness and some cherries on top. Gingerbread, too, which wins my vote for Most Favorite Smell in this beer. Nice and smooth taste; some padded density with light carbonation; a mellow dose of yeast and whole-wheat bread with a little banana, raisins and, at the very end, peaches and definitely more cherries. The finish is a tad bitter for my taste, but the dryness is also quite nice.
This is good beer from a small shop; definitely worth seeking out if you live in New England.

This was a big miss for me - it had none of the robust malty and fruity character I expect from a Belgian Pale Ale. I found it rather thin and a bit sour, more like farmhouse ale or a saison, and not a particularly good one of either.
Pours hazy deep orange with a big bubbly white head that falls to very sticky lacing. The aroma is fruity and perfumy, with jasmine, rose, and tropical fruit. The flavor is sharp, sour, fruity, with pear dominating, but with persimmonan apricot. There is a strong tea character with a thinness in the middle and a high, tight bitterness developing around the edge of the sourness. The mouthfeel is thin and a little dry, which leaves the sour fruit hanging on the palate.

Overall, A good beer, dark pour, fruity smell and taste, but not overly done. Slight after taste is the only issue I had, otherwise very well done.
Definitely a beer I would feel good about serving to friends, maybe not for everyone, but for something different I am glad I tried it.
Very drinkable, but I think after the pint and a half I'd be all set and try something else, not something I'd drink all night.
Nice pour and appearance with the suds staying on top and sticking nicely around the glass.
Great taste for an unfiltered offering. I'd like to try their other offerings.

Poured from the tap into a tasting glass.
The color is a light orange with a finger or two foamy white head some slight lacing.
The smell is sweet with some nice fruity flavors. Some banana, strawberry and orange in the nose.
The taste is a bit hoppy with some bitterness at first. There is some fruity flavor that does come across with some yeast and maltyness.
The fell of this beer does have some lingering aftertaste that does leave a syrup flavor in your mouth. It goes down well and it interesting in some parts a decent beer.

Pours a cloudy golden amber under a small fizzy white head. There was minimal lacing in the glass.
Aroma is floral with spices. Hops are understated, balance with the dry spiciness of the brew. A little sauciness and paper napkin among the spices. Some apple cider notes.
Light body and texture. Lively carbonation.
Drinkable and interesting.
This beer was 4 months old and could have set a little longer. It has promise, but came across as just a little rough.

22 oz. bottle - Poured into glass chalice:
Pours hazed orange with a thin white head that descends to a very thin cover. Little dots of lacing stick.
The smell is of pepper, banana, grass, with a "Belgian-esque" spicy fruitiness.
The taste is of sweet sugar, followed by a musty and metallic character. It has an aspirinish bitterness with an orange tart character.
The body leans towards watery, with noticeable carbonation. Not really quite effervescent or creamy.
It is thin in character with a somewhat puckering bitter touch and a sweetened fruitiness. The malt is a bit lacking in character, throwing off the balance, leaving it a bit aspriny in the finish. It does have something "Belgian-esque" about it.

A- Out of the bottle and into a Chimay glass goes the cloudy orange brew. And head erupts fortuitously in a white foamy top oer the liquid. Lacing lines form like WWI troops waiting for the Germans...
S- A deliciously aromatic beer. There's sweet fruits- strawberry banana, sweet orange. There's spice- sweet anise, coriander. A little more warmth brings out some caramel, unexpected but interesting.
T- I'd have to say that this is one of the very few beers I've had that has a better smell than the taste. Not that the taste of this one is bad, just not nearly as complex and delicious as the smell. There's more malt and hops, and less yeast and spices to the tongue compared to the nose. Graham crackers and bitter dirt hops with tinges of tobacco and green leaves. Although there is some of that fruit it is much subdued.
M- Lingering bitterness bordering on the "stone effect" but not nearly as powerful. And it causes some syrupyness of my saliva.
D- Overall a quality beer. Definitely better than my expectations (although I was expecting a single abbey instead of its pale ale cousin before I started my review). Great smell and a decent taste to go with. Wish I could get my hands on some more of this.

Draft @ Sierra. Pours nice golden color, but just seemed too ordinary against some of lets say Maudites character. Somewhat thin and light decent crisp flavors. Nothing I would have again, but neither is anything I'v ehad from high and mighty to this point. I'll stick with pretty things and berkshire as the two best wmass locals.

A: Poured a medium rustic orange with a soapy ½ finger almond colored head that dissipated rather quickly to a spotty covering while leaving a thin, broken spongey ring lacing. The clarity was turbid with a thick pea-soup haze with an indistinguishable carbonation.
S: The aroma was funky cold tangerines with a herbal (basil) hopping. There was slight underlying notes of candy sugar coming through along with a soft dry wheat scent coming off rather reserved.
T: The initial flavor begins with tart and citric tangerines, dry wheat and a sweet and tart mixture of orange grinds along with candy sugar. The overall feel was musky and damp with warm lemons and hints of herbal hops coming through before finishing out with a sour fruitiness of pineapple and starfruit. Overall this was nicely hopped per style, very smooth in delivery with a tart and sweet side funk to it that was just enough to keep things interesting and respectable.
M: bright and crisp from the start with a very smooth and easy feel. Medium bodied this beer washes down leaving a dry sour fade of warm bitter citrus and dry wheat.
D: better then average yielding little compliant. While the complexity was a bit lacking, this beer comes off as a moderately easy drinking American interpretation with just enough funk to give you a general appreciation. Would consider buying this again, would make for a good intro beer for those unfamiliar to the style.

A - Cloudy orange body, off white head which leaves nice lacing.
S - Delicate floral hops, not as much Belgian yeast as I usually expect but still subtly spicy as it warms.
T - Somewhat sweet and fruity up front, followed by a mild vegetal flavor, floral noble hops and Belgian yeast. Very mild brew, I wouldn't necessarily guess BPA but it's there.
M/D - Appropriate body, easy to drink considering the ABV.
Overall interesting enough to try their other styles but I won't get this again. Bottled October 2008, might explain some of the flavor issues.

I am an immediate fan of the High & Mighty beers, on draught or in bottle and this one was no exception, albeit not perfect. It claims to be a Belgian pale ale, which it really doesn't live up to. Rather, it tastes more like a nice cask farmhouse ale. The pour is an orange-brown that darkens in the glass with a nice full tan head & good lace that hung on throughout. The aroma had a nice dusty herb, apricot-orange and peppery lemoncake smell. The flavor was a bit less complex, more sweet malt, but still light on the palate & quite drinkable. Nice and soft like a good cask-conditioned ale, hints of pepper & yeast stuck in the nose while a bit of sour tart rounded out the malt. I'd definitely love to try this on draught & see if the sweetness is subdued. Still, a lovely one.

"It's such a fine line between stupid and clever."
--David St. Hubbins
Fuzzy apricot with lemony edges. It didn't appear as though much foam was forming early in the pour, but I'm now admiring a big mass of sticky bubbles that is starting to lay down some mighty fine lace.
If coriander and orange peel are used, why isn't this considered a wit? In truth, it smells more like a Belgian pale ale (or amber) than a witbier because the peppery yeast is much more prominent than the added fruit and spice. The nose isn't bad, but it won't make the best versions quake in their boots.
The same can be said for the flavor profile. The Belgian yeast is nice and estery, though more malt support would have made St. Hubbins Abbey a better beer. The tanginess of the orange is more evident than the orange flavor itself. Coriander is still at a low ebb.
With respect to malt, it's more pale/pils than amber, which is what I prefer. Just a hint of toastedness gets quickly buried by the rest of the flavors. The hops are balancing with respect to bittereness and don't contribute much otherwise. Not bad at all.
The mouthfeel is appropriate (to slightly light) for the ABV. It doesn't have the creaminess that all good Belgian ales possess and the carbonation is too sharp-edged; at least initially. The bottom of the bottle is proving to be much softer and slightly more smooth.
St. Hubbins Abbey is a tweener (Belgian pale and witbier) that has no serious faults. Since I didn't expect High & Mighty Beer Co. to compete with the world's best, I'm not the least bit disappointed in the final product. Bottom line: closer to clever than stupid.

High & Mighty- St. Hubbins Abbey
A- Good deep brownish orange with a thick frothy white head. Good ringed lacing down the glass.
S- Sweet sugary rock candy, orange peel, and light bready malt.
T- Sweet, very sweet, sugary orange and grape fruitiness with a bready/ biscuity malt body. Very sweet fruity finish. Orange, lemon, and grape with a slight touch of tartness.
M- Again, very sweet and sugary with a thick dry bready malt body and a sweeter fruity tart end.
Overall- Tasty, and it drank fine but just too sweet.

Pours golden with a creamy, finger thick head. Not too much in the smell, just a bit of spice. Taste is pretty good. The initial taste is orange, a bit of a biscuit follows, and finishes nicely with the hops. This is actually a lot bitter than I expected it, but it's really good. A creamy mouthfeel for being so carbonated.
A very enjoyable, easy drinking beer.

S-Light spice and a touch of sweetness. Nothing very complex or overwhelming here but it was pleasant.

M-Medium-light bodied with decent lingering flavours and a dry, biting finish.

22oz bottle purchased at Yankee Spirits, Sturbridge, MA.
Poured into a heavy glass chalice, formed a 1/4" beige head over the lightly cloudy amber brew. Head dwindles quickly to an uneven layer of froth, with sticky lace and lasting legs. Aroma is sweet and fruity. Taste starts yeasty, with a tartness in the middle and a slightly bitter close. Mouthfeel is lacking, hardly any body, with drinkability being easy but somewhat boring. Expected more malt to come through, even for a Belgian-style Pale Ale.

Congressman Dennis Kucinich, D-Ohio, has sent a "Dear Colleague" to other members of Congress soliciting cosponsors for legislation he plans to introduce to "eliminate the tax deductibility of fast food and junk food advertising directed at children."
As you know, deductibility for DTC advertising has been under fire this year in the health care debate. The Kucinich proposal reinforces our contention that pharmaceuticals were only the first step and all advertising is at risk. Be assured that the AAF will do everything in our power to insure that advertising for all products remains fully deductible as a normal and necessary business expense.
Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any comments or questions.
Don't Subsidize Childhood Obesity
From: The Honorable Dennis J. Kucinich
Date: 10/28/2009
Dear Colleague:
Research clearly shows that childhood obesity has reached epidemic proportions in this country. As we develop programs to combat childhood obesity, we must also examine the root causes of this problem. The effect of advertising on youth, especially advertising of fast food and junk food, has long been a concern of mine. The Institute of Medicine estimates that in 2004 approximately $10 billion was spent on food advertising directed at children, using every method available--television, radio, the internet, even embedded in video games. Simply put, marketing to children works--companies would not make such a substantial investment if it were ineffective.1 Marketing directed at youth is extremely well constructed and relies heavily on behavioral science. The developing brain of the child cannot discriminate fact from opinion; cannot think critically; and cannot yet fully understand abstract thinking. This makes no difference to food advertisers, who exploit this using cartoons, cross branding with popular toys, giveaways, and myriad other methods to develop brand loyalty and shape judgment as early as possible, knowing that those affinities are the most enduring. Astonishingly, the federal government subsidizes this methodical preying on children by granting a tax write-off for expenses associated with it. This must stop. The government must take action to protect American children and ensure that they grow up in a healthy environment. For this reason will be introducing legislation that would eliminate the tax deductibility of fast food and junk food advertising directed at children. I invite you to join me as a cosponsor of this legislation. There is precedent: approximately 50 countries, including Sweden, Norway, Australia, and Great Britain, have limited or prohibited food advertising directed at youth. Additionally, recent research has concluded that eliminating the tax deductibility of food advertising directed at youth would reduce obesity among youth.2 For more information or to cosponsor, please contact Tom Mulloy in my office at 5-5871 or firstname.lastname@example.com.
Sincerely,/s/Dennis J.

They're saying that HBO is going the crazy ex-Girlfriend route with this split. Lol
I guess they are on Their Taylor Swift. The full report is yet to come out on yahoo but if true this would prove more serious than I imagined. Unfortunately I believe HBO will hurt themselves more so in the long run. You don't burn bridges.....

Just because HBO doesn't want to do business with GBP, that doesn't mean squat when it comes to my shows. I HAVE TO watch my True Blood during the summer. Shit, boxing is so fickle and unpredictable nowadays, so I dont lean on it too much, until the first bell rings.
Showtime has some pretty good shows, and I'm almost willing to say that they are nearly even in series competition, but everyone can judge for themselves.

LOWELL, Mass. - Six different River Hawks found the net as UMass Lowell defeated the Russian Red Stars in an exhibition game, 6-4, on Thursday night in the Tsongas Center.
The Red Stars are a touring all-star squad comprised of elite players from the Minor Hockey League (MHL) in Russia, ranging in age from 19 to 21.
The River Hawks kicked off the evening with four unanswered goals over the first 30 minutes of action. Malcolm Lyles (Miami Gardens, Fla.) started the fireworks at 8:56 with a power play goal off of Michael Budd's (Burlington, Ont.) face-off win.
UMass Lowell then pushed the lead to 2-0 on a give-and-go between rookies Scott Wilson (Oakville, Ont.) and Stephen Buco (North Providence, R.I.), with Wilson finishing off the play at 14:11.
The lead expanded further as Tyler Brickler (Riverwoods, Ill.) used some fancy stick work to pot a back-handed tally at the edge of the crease at 19:50.
The momentum continued in the second period as Josh Holmstrom (Colorado Springs, Colo.) scored on a breakaway after a long pass through center ice from Wilson at 9:56.
The fourth tally snapped the Russian Red Stars out of their funk as they roared back with three goals in a span of 1:59. Alexander Titov landed the first tally at 16:16 from Igor Cherkasov.
Maxim Kvitchenko then picked off an errant pass and beat goaltender Marc Boulanger (Olds, Alta.) at 17:54 to cut the score to 4-2.
Finally Kvitchenko collected another River Hawk turnover and set up Ilya Karlin for a goal at 18:15.
Despite the surge from the Red Stars, UMass Lowell managed to settle down. Senior David Vallorani (Hamilton, Ont.) strengthened the River Hawks' advantage early in the third with a power play goal from Matt Ferreira (Brampton, Ont.), connecting on a one-timer from the far circle.
The Russian Red Stars made another push with Karlin's second goal of the night, but captain Riley Wetmore (Swanton, Vt.) answered right back with a power play goal at 11:51 to cement the final score at 6-4.
UMass Lowell's Boulanger looked strong between the pipes, collecting 37 saves and the win. The Red Stars split the workload between Eugene Ivannikov and Rafael Khakimov. Ivannikov made nine saves and allowed two goals before exiting in the 15th minute, while Khakimov stopped 18-of-22 shots over the final 44:51.
After taking the rest of the weekend off, the River Hawks will jump back into Hockey East play with a game at Vermont on Jan. 13.

Do you have one of those strong willed children? We hate to call them stubborn, but you know who they are… whenever you say something they say the opposite. Dr. Joy Miller looks at some creative methods to parent that just might lower the verbal intensity and have your kids adhere to some smart parenting.
Strong willed children always seem to be challenging for parents. What are some of the strategies you have to share with us?
Dealing with stubborn children doesn't have to be a constant fight.
Use your "brains" and outsmart them.
Kids who are strong willed want more control and the way to give it to them is to offer choices that fit your criteria for options.
Give us some examples of how we can create "smarter parenting"
Chores- always a difficult challenge
Play beat the clock. Make it a game… I bet you can't clean up this area before the timer goes off. Stubborn kids love challenges and games. Keep a chart to win stickers towards a reward
Your child wants to do something and instead of saying, we can't do that, try saying, "of course you can do that as soon as we get these toys put away." The change in focus will make a dramatic difference
Bedtime- kids always want to stay up later
Offer the opportunity to stay up a little later, but help them get ready to actually fall asleep by offering them time to go to their room and do something quiet like reading or playing quietly. Tell them if they are quite read they can stay up a little longer
Offer up the same option but tell them they can pick a book between x and y and you can read it together and stay up a little longer. This creates quiet time prior to bed and increases your connection
Strong willed kids see this as a win if you present it in that fashion
Choosing clothes
Your child never likes what you pick out so let them choose their own clothes—but wait, if you don't like their choices, then narrow down the choices in the closet.
Rotate the clothes every couple of weeks so they have new options
Give them a choice between two or three outfits and let them choose what they want to wear for the next day
Perhaps they don't want to wear a coat to school—try putting them in the car that's cold and when they ask you to turn up the heat or they are complaining about being cold, then take out a jacket you have hidden in the trunk. Let them face their consequences
Stubborn kids need to feel more control and have options, and a smart parent can still have their way by outsmarting their child and still do positive parenting.

Freaky or Fabulous? Giles's Pac-Women
Freaky or Fabulous? Giles's Pac-Women
by POPSUGAR Fashion 33 Reactions 0 Shares Print
While my girls in London wrap up their own Fashion Week, Giles — someone I've always had my eye on — sent rather tame, graphic designs down his runway. But what wasn't tame was the Pac-Man-inspired massive head gear. So it's a bit distracting from the shift dresses and draped black gown, it's super fun. I enjoy the contrast of the tame clothes and ode to the '80s accessory. It takes me back to dentist visits where I played Pac-Man while my teeth soaked in fluoride. Maybe this pleasant memory is why I don't mind visiting my dentist and Giles's poking fun.

i like them - i think that they are a great tie in - with the whole 'show' element of what fashion shows are - they are set up to provoke you and to make you become more interested in the excitement of the collection and these are just another accessory that draws your eye in and makes you talk about what you saw even after the shows are over.

I think these are so cute! The pink dresses remind me of dresses my mom might have made me wear as a little girl in the 80's (and enjoyed watching my dad play pacman.. I wasn't very good ;) )... the pacman heads are kind of witty if I think about it that way!

how about freaky fabulous?! I think they're kinda cool, and you can get away with crazy stuff in fashion. and they're nowhere as freaky as the couple of models who had their face painted like a really pale pink - awful! love the collection though, especially the yellow & black numbers and that collared dress that came in orange, red, and turqouise - love the 70's feel of the orange...

Kevin Burnett - LB

|Years played
|2005, 2nd round, 10th pick by Cowboys
Slimmed-down Dansby big reason for Dolphins' improved 'D'
it's no coincidence the Dolphins' first two wins came in the team's best defensive performances, when its best defensive player, ILB Karlos Dansby, finally played to his potential.
Dolphins ILB Burnett should free up Dansby for big plays
New Dolphins ILB Kevin Burnett has the coverage and playmaking abilities to help free up Karlos Dansby, but he is a downgrade vs. the run compared to Channing Crowder.
Dolphins sign LB Burnett
The Dolphins have come to terms on a five-year deal with former Chargers LB Kevin Burnett. They also signed LB Jason Trusnik.
ILB decision could shape Chargers' offseason plans
When the offseason began for the Chargers, they knew it would be nearly impossible to retain all their key free agents. Now it is becoming more and more clear which direction the team is likely to go with some of ...
Dominance of Manning shows Bolts belong in title talk
Any questions about whether the Chargers are a legitimate Super Bowl contender were answered Sunday night — they are one of the league's most dangerous teams.
Healthy Burnett bringing the heat for Bolts
It certainly doesn't reflect in their 2-5 record, but the Chargers have been one of the league's premier defenses in 2010, and ILB Kevin Burnett is a main reason why.
Burnett among Chargers' vets in roster trouble
The Chargers will have a few clear-cut objectives during their 2010 training camp. But the Bolts also will be looking to trim players who aren't up to snuff as they attempt to select the best 53 men for their ...
The Oakland Raiders have signed free agent linebacker Kevin Burnett, continuing their offseason makeover of the defense. Burnett is the third linebacker signed by the Raiders in the past week. General manager Reggie McKenzie had earlier signed Kaluka Maiava from Cleveland and Nick Roach from Chicago.||||||| Burnett, whose brother Kaelin is also on Oakland's roster, spent the past two seasons with Miami and has started 59 games over eight years. He had a career-high 110 tackles and 2 1/2 sacks in 2012. Burnett, a second-round draft pick by Dallas in 2005, spent four seasons with Dallas and two in San Diego before signing with the Dolphins.
Burnett was active Sunday against St. Louis.||||||| He had been listed as questionable with an ankle injury.
Burnett is sidelined by a foot injury, raising doubts about his availability for Sunday's game against the New York Jets.||||||| Burnett was added to the injury report Thursday, when he did not practice. He missed much of training camp with a back injury but started the Dolphins' first two games.
Veteran Kevin Burnett signed Saturday with the Miami Dolphins as a replacement for Channing Crowder at inside linebacker.||||||| Burnett, a second-round draft pick by Dallas in 2005, spent four seasons with the Cowboys as a reserve and the past two seasons with San Diego. He started seven games in 2009 and all 16 games last year, when he had 80 tackles, six sacks and two interceptions.
Burnett wasn't fined for a helmet-to-helmet hit on Rams QB Sam Bradford because the quarterback was scrambling outside the pocket and therefore considered a runner.||||||| There was no penalty on the play.

Exploring the Amalfi Coast
The Amalfi Coast, a meandering 50 km stretch of powdered beach and craggy rock, is some of Europe's most beautiful coastline. The villages clinging to the cliffs are host to a charming and sophisticated mix of both locals and visitors, and Amalfi Coast villas enjoy spectacular views of the intensely blue waters.
Experience a villa on the Amalfi Coast
Private pools and a personal staff are common features of villas in Amalfi Coast, while elegant interiors are reminiscent of the alluring Italian style of old, with art and architecture evoking authentic seaside Mediterraneo. Although this culture-rich region is ripe for exploration, these exceptional villas somehow inspire a desire to merely relax and enjoy the serene and scenic surroundings. Idyllic spots from which to contemplate the many-hued sunsets glinting off the waters below your terrace, Amalfi Coast villa rentals welcome you to Italy.
Spend your days exploring the local vineyards and sunny lemon groves, the source of the Amalfi Coast's famous limoncello liqueur. In the peak summer months, smart travelers travel from Amalfi Coast villas to neighboring villages and attractions by boat - ask your Dedicated Concierge about private charters and spend a day exploring Capri's grottos, or the Amalfi's hidden beaches and charming seaside restaurants.

Post 4 Reports Increase In DUI Arrests And Decrease In Motor Vehicle Crashes For April
Date of News Release: 05/02/2013
(ELIZABETHTOWN, KY) -- The Kentucky State Police Post 04 in Elizabethtown covers 8 counties. They include: Hardin, Jefferson, Bullitt, Nelson, Meade, Breckinridge, Larue, and Grayson. The West Region covers 8 post areas. They are: Post 1, Post 2, Post 3, Post 4, Post 5, Post 12, Post 15, and Post 16.
We will continue to conduct traffic safety checkpoints through May and the rest of 2013 looking for impaired drivers, unrestrained motorists, and other traffic violations at various locations throughout our post area.
For the month of April 2013, Post 04 Troopers and Detectives wrote a total of 1,478 citations. We removed 66 drunk drivers from Kentucky roadways and cited 451 speeders. 183 violators were charged for failure to wear a seatbelt and 8 citations were for failure to use a child restraint. We investigated 70 crashes and conducted 2,468 vehicle inspections. 888 motorists were given a courtesy notice in lieu of a traffic citation for minor traffic offenses. We assisted 121 motorists stranded on Kentucky roadways and answered over 1,164 citizens complaints. We were involved in 745 special details and conducted over 27 community programs which reached over 1,500 citizens of the Commonwealth. Our Detectives and Troopers opened over 58 criminal cases, made 224 criminal arrests, and served over 98 criminal court documents. In addition, we contacted over 478 victims of crimes on cases that we investigated. Additionally, we conducted over 403 school and business security checks throughout the entire Post 4 area. In total, Post 04 Troopers, Detectives, and Command Staff logged over 9,764 hours of service for the Kentucky citizens we served.
In addition to the Trooper and Detective monthly activity, Post 4 dispatchers logged over 2,300 data entries while still answering hundreds of calls from citizens in our area.
Preliminary statistics* indicate that five people died in five separate crashes on Kentuckys roadways from Monday, Apr. 22 through Sunday, Apr. 28, 2013.
One single-fatality, motor vehicle crash occurred in each of the following counties: Boyd, Daviess, Franklin, Jefferson and Wolfe. The victims in Boyd, Franklin, Jefferson and Wolfe counties were not wearing seat belts. The Boyd County and Jefferson County crashes involved the suspected use of alcohol.
Through Apr. 28, preliminary statistics* indicate that 165 people have lost their lives on Kentucky roadways during 2013. This is 48 less than reported for this time period in 2012. Of the 139 motor vehicle fatalities, 70 victims were not wearing seat belts. Six of the 11 motorcycle fatalities were not wearing helmets. The one ATV fatality was not wearing a helmet. One bicycle rider has been killed. Twelve pedestrians have been killed. One fatality involving an animal drawn vehicle has been reported. A total of 32 fatalities have resulted from crashes involving the suspected use of alcohol. As of Apr. 28, Kentucky has had 33 days with zero highway fatalities reported during 2013.
Citizens can contribute to highway safety by reporting erratic drivers to the Kentucky State Police toll-free at 1-800-222-5555. Callers will remain anonymous and should give a description of the vehicle, location, direction of travel and license number if possible.
*These statistics are still preliminary as KSP waits for all local law enforcement agencies throughout the state to report any crashes and fatalities that may have occurred in their areas.
