I'm Happy to be here, I'm glad I found this site, as it turns out my wife and I recently got her fathers '50 cub. It was taken apart for a new clutch about 5 years ago, and has not been finished. I hope to have it running in a day or two,(if everything goes as planned). From what I have read on this site so far there is a great deal of information, which I'm sure will come in handy. I will post some pitchers as soon as I find my way around a little better...

Two Senco hardware nailers are put to the test
Straight and angled 16-gauge nailers join this compressed air-powered product line.
When I heard that Senco was introducing a new cordless finish nailer, I was both excited and skeptical — excited because I dislike using hoses, and skeptical because as a long-time user of cordless finish guns I am aware of their shortcomings.
At just over 5 pounds and with adjustable depth-of-drive, the Senco SCN49 coil siding nailer accepts wire and plastic collated nails from 1 1/4 to 2 1/2 inches.
Recently I tested two nailers introduced in 2008. In keeping with the trend toward more compact framing guns, the SN902XP is Senco's smallest, lightest framer yet. DeWalt's D51850, by contrast, is larger and heavier than any of the company's previous models.

The LSU Tigers sweep the Missouri Tigers in their first ever meeting in Columbia, Missouri taking game three 6-5. The Tigers improve to 26-2, and 8-1 in the SEC.
"It's so difficult to sweep an SEC series, especially on the road, so we're very proud of the way our players competed this weekend," said LSU coach Paul Mainieri. "We fought back from the early deficit with some big hits, including another home run by Mason Katz, and our relief pitching was tremendous to allow us to get back into the game. We played great defense all weekend with just one error."
The Tigers return to action with non-conference games Tuesday at 6:30 p.m. at home vs. Alcorn State, and Wednesday at 7 p.m. at Zephyr Field in Metairie vs. Southern Mississippi.

SAN FRANCISCO -- Giancarlo Stanton never before saw a ball vanish into thin air.
Stanton did Saturday, though, and it did more than possibly cost the Marlins their 10th consecutive win at AT&T Park. It also led to Mike Redmonds first ejection as Marlins manager.
The Marlins dropped a 2-1 decision to the Giants on Hector Sanchezs bloop single with the bases loaded in the 11th inning.
But it was the Giants other run that had everyone talking afterward.
With two outs in the fifth and Barry Zito at first base, Gregor Blanco crushed a long fly ball to center that bounced off the warning track, kicked off the brick wall and then disappeared.
The reason: A fan seated in the arcade atop the wall reached out and grabbed the orb.
Umpires not only called fan interference (rather than a ground-rule double) but awarded the Giants a run, deciding that Zito would have scored from first.
Redmond was thrown out for arguing.
I thought initially it was a ground-rule double, Redmond said. He called fan interference.
Even so, Redmond thought umpires were wrong to award a run to Zito and the Giants.
I didnt think Barry Zito would have scored on that, from first, Redmond said. I dont think the run should have scored. Its their discretion.
Said Stanton, who couldnt figure out what had happened: I saw it hit halfway up, and I looked up and it was gone. I guess [a fan] grabbed it in the air or something.
Stanton, perplexed, threw up his arms.
That wasnt [a signal] for a ground-rule double, Stanton said. That was, I have no idea what was going on.
Umpires said they saw it clearly.
In my judgment, if the fan hadnt touched the ball, Zito was going to score, home-plate umpire Mike Winters said. That was a no-brainer to me.
Redmond spent the remainder of the game inside the clubhouse.
Offense lacking
It was a largely quiet afternoon for the Marlins at the plate. After Ed Lucas connected on his first major-league home run in the first inning, the Marlins bats went silent against Zito and the Giants bullpen.
They were poised to strike in the 11th when Marcell Ozuna doubled to open the inning and Logan Morrison was walked intentionally by reliever Sandy Rosario.
But right fielder Hunter Pence made a diving catch on Placido Polancos sinking liner to end the inning.
The Giants loaded the bases in the 11th before Sanchez lofted a shallow fly ball to left that dropped in front of Justin Ruggiano and enabled the winning run to score. It was the second walk-off loss of the road trip for the Marlins.
He just jumped it in, said Ruggiano, who was too far from the ball to make a diving attempt. If I dove for that ball, theres no play for that. The only chance I had was to play it on a clean hop. But it was tough because it was spinning sideways.
The loss for the Marlins was their first at AT&T Park since 2010 and ended a franchise-record run of nine consecutive wins at another teams ballpark.
Cardiac fish
The game also extended another streak for the Marlins. All six of their games on the road trip so far have been decided in the eighth inning or later.
Jacob Turner started for the Marlins on Saturday and held the Giants to only the disputed run over seven innings. Zito, whose father died last week, also turned in a strong outing.
Lucas had three hits, including the historic homer.
Per his grandmothers request, he dedicated the homer to his grandfather, who died last year.
It was bittersweet, Lucas said.

After selecting quarterbacks with two of their first three selections in the NFL draft, the Redskins released a veteran signalcaller on Saturday.
John Beck, who started three games for Washington last season, was cut. The team drafted QBs Robert Griffin III and Kirk Cousins in the first and fourth rounds, respectively.
Griffin is expected to be the Redskins' starting quarterback in 2012, with veteran Rex Grossman and Cousins behind him on the depth chart.
Beck, who threw two TDs and four interceptions during his time on the field last season, is now a free agent.

This year if you want to get a H1N1 flu shot there should be no standing in line, no pandemonium, and no shortage. This year's flu shot protects against 3 strains, H1N1, Influenza A and B so you only need one shot, not two. But in order to get that protection, you need to get the shot.
Dr. Dave Kapaska is Avera McKennan's Chief Medical Officer and Interim Regional President. As a leader at the hospital and in the community he constantly strives to set a good example. That's why he's getting his annual flu shot on camera. One shot that protects against 3 strains of Influenza including H1N1.
Dr. Kapaska says, "33,000 people die every year from influenza. The older people and the younger people and the people with chronic diseases are most likely to be seriously afflicted the rest of us have the ability to get very sick ourselves and we could pass it on to the young and old in our lives so I think it's very important to protect ourselves and those around us."
Last year when the H1N1 scare circulated it prompted prompting a sense of panic worldwide. People were clamoring to get their hands on one of the H1N1 flu shots once they became available to the public which meant long lines and make-shift clinics. Avera Infectious Disease Specialist Dr. Aris Assimacopoulos says people got so sick from H1N1 because there was no underlying immunity to that strain.
Dr. Assimacopoulos says, "What I tell people you shouldn't rely on last yeas flu shot to think you have protection this year. Cumulatively over time the more flu shots you get the more chance you'll have immunity of what's circulating that year."
Unfortunately, if you are allergic to eggs you can't get the shot or the mist.
Children under the age of 6 months can't get a flu shot. The flu mist is a live vaccine and available for people ages 2 to 49 and Dr. A says if you're pregnant you should get a flu shot. As for the timing, experts say now is as good as any.
Dr. A says, "It's good to get it when you can get it."
Dr. Kapaska says, "Where ever you get it, I just encourage you to get one and I can vouch that it doesn't hurt."
So listen to the good doctors! Get a flu shot to protect yourself, your family and everyone around you.

SOUTHAMPTION EMBARKATION: We flew into Heathrow on Thurs AM from Boston and went immediately to Southampton. Stayed at the Novotel: good location, roomy and comfortable with free wi-fi in the lobby. Had an excellent dinner in hotel dining room on Thursday night. Was not happy with one-price breakfast buffet in the morning - BUT they had the most delicious oatmeal/porridge we've ever had -- truly amazing. Friday evening we ate at La Esquina, a Spanish Tapas Bar & Restaurant on Oxfort Street. Be sure to make a reservation as this is a very popular place for the locals. Delicious menu and they make the Sangria right there at the bar. We met the owner while we were wandering the town and he was great to talk to! Sure enough, he was there when we went for supper too! HIGHLY recommend this place! We walked the city on Friday -- along the old wall; saw some of the bombed out churches from the war. The Titanic sailed from Southampton. We went to the City Museum to see the Titanic display and it was excellent -- well worth seeing! Especially eyeopening was the room with a historical city map on the floor, with red boxes around each address on each street where someone was lost on the Titanic.So many red boxes! Interesting information on the people, the types of jobs on ship, the pay in those days, etc. Don't be daunted by the idea of learning about the Titanic before you are going on a cruise -- this is well worth the visit! An amazing piece of history and an excellet display and explanation. In terms of boarding the Eclipse, we were notified that boarding would start a bit later than expected: "several" people on the previous cruise had been ill and they were sanitizing the ship. There was a large notice in the Novotel lobby -- and Celebrity had called and left us a message in our hotel. This was a bit daunting -- but in reality, would much rather have ship well cleaned etc. So we boarded about 2 hours later than originally planned. Boarding went smoothly - very efficient with luggage tags etc. ECLIPSE, THE SHIP: First sailed in 2010. A beautiful, spotless solstice-class ship with friendly & excellent service. There are so many places to get coffee, a drink, dine, relax, get away from everyone, socialize with others, engage in activities. There's even a glass-blowing show and a grassy section on the top deck! Most impressed that the Solstice line of Celebrity ships actively supports breast cancer research. Did not realize this until we were on board. Crew is friendly and efficient. Presence of crew and upper-level staff is apparent on the ship which I think is very good. Before going into dining areas, the Eclipse theatre etc, there are Purell stands and a crew member dispensing Purell sanitizer into your hands. When you reboard at a port, you must also have the sanitizer put on your hands. No problems at all on our cruise with illnesses. STATEROOM: excellent decor & storage (under and above bed, roomy closet w/many hangers, desk/bureau with drawers; drawers & cabinet shelves in bathroom). Large screen wall TV: news, movies, your up-to-date account, etc. I always get chilly so asked for an extra blanket which was immediately brought to room and we had it for the entire cruise. At one point we had a slight problem with our sink draining, called and someone was there within 15 minutes to fix it. Never had another problem with it. We had the stateroom attendant take out the coffee pot and tray that was on our desk top so we would have more room for our things. We just went to the Ocean View Cafe, 3 decks above us, and brought coffee to our room when we wanted it / or lemondade etc. Rather to have more room on top of the desk/dresser when coffee is so readily and easily available. I was most impressed with the shower - it's roomy with great water pressure. Interesting and telling to read in the booklet about the Eclipse that several women were on the design team for the Solstice class ships. No wonder there's a small bar in the wall of the shower -- just the right place and height to place your foot as you shave your legs! Must remember this if we ever remodel our bathrooms at home! Our roomy deck had two comfy adjustable chairs & a table (see my review of stateroom 1245, on deck 10 by library). Because our cabin was on the "hump" of the ship, our deck was a bit larger. We did Concierge Class 2 for better choice of deck and stateroom also provides welcome bottle of champagne and a daily small tray of appetizers. Many who critique Concierge class and say the extra appetizers and one bottle of champagne don't make the extra cost worth it don't realize that it also has to do with deck and stateroom placement choices. Very worth it in our book! DINING: we had our evening meals in the main, beautiful Moonlight Sonata dining room. We did the 2nd seating, requested & had a table for 2. We were in a more quiet area of the dining room -- off to one side and by a window. Really nice. Others who want to cruise to meet people request tables for 4 or 6 or 8. We wanted to be by ourselves and this was perfect! We found the second seating to be most convenient as we always had time after our shore excursions to relax, shower, etc. There is a two-sided menu: one with choices always available; other with offerings of the evening. The meals were always delicious & beautifully served. Some complain there aren't many vegetables. The always-available menu included a cauliflower side dish; and I often asked for it (which was delicious and came either with cheese or not) or a side dish of steamed broccoli. Both were delicious and cooked just right. Each night there are multiple salad, soup, entrée and dessert choices, including wonderful homemade ice cream - the pistachio is really good as is the vanilla! Our server, assistant server and sommalier were friendly and we really enjoyed getting to know them. With Celebrity, gratuities are automatically added to each person's "sea pass" (your on-ship bill): $12.50 per person for Concierge class, per day. We were so impressed with the service in the diing room that we wrote out individual notes and gave some extra to express our gratitude. I don't think many do this though.
We often had our breakfast and lunch in the Ocean View Cafe. It also offers dinner for those who want to dress more casually - although we enjoyed the Moonlight Sonata every evening and enjoy the "smart casual" dress code and the 3 formal nights. Ocean View Cafe has diverse offerings for lunch & breakfast multiple stations rather than one long cafeteria line - so we never had to wait, even at busier times. They also offer sushi in the afternoons -- and their afternoon scones with clotted cream and jam are amazing - incredibly flakey! We often had a healthy breakfast & lunch at the AquaSpa Cafe open to all. Egg-white omelets, papaya, mango were my favorite for breakfast; grilled tuna & yummy salads at lunch. There is no printed menu for this spot...you need to ask for the omlette and the grilled tuna (also offer grilled chicken breast). If it was advertised, I expect many would swamp this lovely small venue. Bistro on Five is a fun creperie lunch alternative for just $5 per person; quiet & relaxing. For the $5 per person you can have soup, salad, any number of crepes (we love the tuscan chicken), and dessert. Wine would be extra. We go here when we first board the ship to avoid the crowds in Ocean View. It's a really nice way to start the cruise! The Cafe al Bacio has espresso, lattes etc. for a fee but their pastries are free. You just need to go to the counter and point out what you want. The coffee eclair is delicious! We splurged every so often and picked up pastries to take to our room. We never felt the need to dine at the specialty restaurants, as M. Sonata was delicious and never got boring. There is an extra charge for the speciality dining rooms. ENTERTAINMENT: We love to dance and were thrilled with theTop Notch Party Band: the 2 female vocalists are superb; take requests; many styles of music. The Runaways band was mediocre at best the drummer didnt know how to blend in we avoided them as did many people. The Ray Brown Jazz group was excellent and mellow. Two interactive nights were fun: Motown and Groove, with Eclipse orchestra and singers. The 1st night Celebrity Edge show in the main theatre was excellent. The second show we went to with the orchestra and dancers/singers was okay. We never went to see the comedian, piano player, or other individual shows as we were too busy dancing! We did attend the day-time lectures on sea days about the history of the Baltic and they were very good: informative and entertaining. We used the gym a lot free morning stretch and abs classes were great. They have all the equipment you would ever need including yoga mats and blocks, ellipticals, treadmills etc. No need to sign up for the extra classes for a fee. There is much to do on the ship on sea days or if you decide not to go ashore: hot glass blowing demos are fun and a signature offering of the Celebrity ships -- as is the green lawn of real grass on the top deck: perfect for playing bocce or just sitting on in the sun. There's even a room with ping pong tables that we came across! One day we went to a room for an activity that was listed as "Show Choir" thinking there would be a performance of the Celebrity singers - the ones who perform in the shows. We sat down and noticed there really wasn't any room for a show choir, and there appeared to be a director standing in front of the room by a keyboard, and people were walking in with sheet music. It turns out they'd been meeting (it was listed other times on the Celebrity Today activities listing) and they were learning songs. We're not singers so we quickly and quietly left. But for those who enjoy singing, what a neat activity and we were later told they actually did a performance on the smaller Celebrity stage for friends, family, crew etc. In terms of the pool area, were not pool users but there are outdoor and indoor (more protected) options which is good for the Baltic this time of year! I did an Art Tour of the ship with an I-pad provided by Guest Services: this is not advertised. I'd heard about it from another cruiser. You just need to ask Guest Services for the I-pad for the Art Tour and they'll set you up - no charge. Very fun and it gets you wandering all over the ship! A special tour of the ship was offered that we signed up for: extra cost but oh so worth it! There was a small blurb about it in the daily Celebrity Today Newsletter placed in your cabin each evening telling about the next day's and upcoming events. We literally saw and learned about almost the entire ship. Top level folks talked with us and explained the workings of the ship including the bridge (Captain talked with us), engine room, helicopter pad (we went and stood outside on it!), mooring area with huge anchors and ropes, backstage of theatre; crew quarters for reading, relaxing, eating etc.; kitchen areas including walk-in huge freezers and refrigerators, seeing the waitstaff come in to get dishes during the lunch time. What was amazing to me was how spotless and clean even the back stairways and crew hallways were. There was a crew member painting the anchor casing! The tour culminated with a delicious lunch in the Tuscan Grill - we ordered off the menu and it included wine. I especially enjoyed the talk by the Training and Development Director about the crew, hiring, training, policies, etc. If this is offered, I recommend it highly! On a previous Celebrity cruise we toured the galley where they make pastries etc.which was very fun, but this tour was all inclusive and amazing! PORTS: We did not go off the ship at the first port (Brugges) needed the relaxation and just truly enjoyed the calm and quiet of a mostly empty ship. Other ports were excellent. Did Copenhagen and Tallinn on our own. Found a Walking Tour of Tallinn produced by the Smithsonian at Smithsonian.com which was great! I'd printed it and we used it - very accurate and took us to some out-of-the-way places. Very easy to walk into Tallinn from the ship. We took a Celebrity provided shuttle into Copenhagen and walked much of the city - we elected to just walk back to the ship which was easy to do. Warning: the Little Mermain is really little -- very sweet. We used Celebrity excursions for other ports and found them to be excellent! Many use private tours of St Petersburg I did the research and the cost is now the same for Celebrity or private. And yes, it is true, the private companies arrange for your visas so you can tour with them. You just cannot get off the ship by yourself unless you've personally arranged for and gotten a Russian visa. We had a SUPERB guide for our Celebrity St Petersburg excursion who had us into the Hermitage with only 1 group ahead of us! She must have been an art history major as she was absolutely excellent! We were often the only ones in a room, standing right in front of original art treasures by Rembrandt, Renoir, Degas, etc. Amazingly we could take photos without flash. There is no air-conditioning so if you are there on a summer cruise, be forewarned to dress light and bring tissue or a handkerchief to wipe your brow! Also, you cannot bring backpacks into the museums you can leave them safely on the bus. See my port reviews for more info. We were on our cruise when the Summer Solstice was fast approaching so, for example, sunrise in Stockholm was at 3:46 AM and sunset was at 9:46 PM! I woke up at about 4:30 and was out on the deck (our veranda) the entire time, moving through the beautfiul archipelago, islands outside of the city itself. Absolutely beautiful. In Russia, one night we had a sky that had an absolute red streak across it. Picture a painting with the first lower part of the canvas as the black of the sea water; second layer, the black of the sky; third layer, a ragged red streak across the entire sky; and the top part of the canvas, the black sky. At this time of year, even when the sun set, the red sunset was still visible until the sun came up fully again! Just remarkable! Ah, Germany: we elected not to do Berlin as we couldn't see sitting on a bus for 3 hours to get there and 3 hours back. Instead we did the Celebrity shore excursion that included Lubbek, Germany -- and World Unesco sight. It was fabulous! If you are there, it is the home of a special brand of marzipan that is made with only 30% sugar. Our guide pointed out the store that is the world headquarters for it....we walked through the crowds in the store, passing up all the amazing shapes almond paste of this quality can be made into, and went upstairs to their restaurant. Very few people up there -- mainly locals. We had a delicious quiche, coffees, and almond cake to die for! Lubbek was narrow streets, medieval buildings, truly experiencing history.Just an excellent cruise!

Just inside the Lincoln city limit are 80 miles of bike trails, with another 50 more on the outskirts.
For many, biking around the capital city seems like the perfect way to stay fit and enjoy the summer.
It is for Denise Drake.
"We did the 20 mile ride today with my son and husband. I've ran most of these trails so it was kind of fun to get out on my bike and ride them," Drake says.
To promote the city's expanding trail system and to raise money for future projects, the Great Plains Trails Network hosted Trail Trek, a group bike ride to explore what Lincoln has to offer.
Cyclists had the choice of a 10, 20 or 45–mile ride through the twists and turns of Lincoln's trails.
"Almost every year I get people that [say] I've never been on that trail, I didn't know the stuff on the north side of town or south side. Because they tend to stay in their neighborhoods," says event organizer Don Dingman.
The start and finish line was at Haymarket Park, where riders also enjoyed lunch, games, and free giveaways, even bikes.
Lancaster County Sheriff's bike unit took part in the Trek for the fourth year. They say it's a good chance to get to know the community.
"It breaks down the barriers where, driving around with the windows up, air conditioning on, seems to put a barrier between you and the public. So this is a good way to break down those barriers. You talk to people when you're riding next to them," says the Department's Scott Gaston.
Even Mayor Chris Beutler stopped by the Trail Trek to wish riders well. He says promoting the city's trail systems is just another way to keep Lincoln healthy.
"One of the things we're trying to do is to establish multiple fun ways to get out and exercise," he says.
Organizers say the event brought in about $10,000 for future trail projects, like the Bikeway Trail Project, which would give bikers access to the downtown area. It would connect on the east with the Billy Wolff Train in Antelope Valley, and on the west with the Jamaica North Trail in the West Haymarket.
There's an open house with more information on the project coming up. It'll be held at St. Paul United Methodist Church on June 25 from 5 to 7:30 p.m.

A standoff with a man wanted by Henderson police ended with an arrest Friday afternoon.
The standoff began about 1 p.m. near the intersection of Center Street and Warm Springs Road.
Keith Paul, public information officer for the Henderson Police Department, said a man who is wanted in connection with the theft of a moped and other property crimes in the neighborhood is refusing to come out of his apartment.
Paul said that when officers arrived, the wanted man's friends came out and told police the man they are looking for is inside. He said when the man refused to come out, officers set up a perimeter.
By 4 p.m., Paul said gas was launched into the apartment to get the man to exit. He said the man was then arrested.
The identity of the man was not immediately released.

Last Minute Last Dollar Hut Opening!
Date posted: 2012/02/15
What's typically one of our busiest weekends of winter, Presidents' Day weekend has a last minute opening at the Last Dollar Hut. We're in the heart of winter with plenty of new snowfall and skiing into the huts couldn't be more picturesque.
Last Dollar Hut (10,980′) sits 300 feet and 1/4 mile above Last Dollar Pass. There are direct views across the San Miguel River canyon and the north faces of the Wilson Range.
Last Dollar Hut is also our furthest hut west and closest to Telluride. So make some turns at the Telluride Ski Area and join us for a night at the huts.

Boxing is a business the more popular you are the more money and fan base a fighter has. It seems sometimes in the sport of boxing a fighter's popular can cover the lack of skill a fighter has. For example: Mikey Garcia, an up and coming fighter isn't your typical Mexican fighter he moves around jabs and his defense, his skills are rising fast but his popularity isn't where it should be. Andrea Ward is another example, his skills are off the chart but his popularity is so so. Sergio Martinez who is a top Middle weight has great skills but his popularity isn't where it should be. Juan Manuel Marquez is just now getting the publicity that he should have already had because his skill set is very high. Shane Mosley would be the poster child for this category. Sweet Pea never got the crowd to wear it needed to be and Roy Jones as quiet as it is kept.
"Fighters" like Chavez Jr. who shouldn't even be in the ring has a fan base that the aforementioned fighters should have. The kid is a rock star with an average skill set, and that is due to his laziness. Saul Alvarez who has yet to be tested and his opponents has only showcased his strengths has a following of a mega rock star. Michael Jackson status. Others who make this list would be Manny Pacquiao (Pacquiao's boxing skill not style of fighting is what I am looking at. He is an exciting fighter and has had great wars and fights but his skill level as a boxer is average at best) is a a demigod. Paulie Maliggini (spelling is off) and Gattie (RIP) would also be in this category. Again I am looking at the skill set not the type of fighter that they are.
It is very rare that you have a fighter who is popular and has the skill set to match his popularity: Ali, Foreman, Joe Louis, Frasier, Hearns, Sugar Robinson, Mayweather, Duran, De La Hoya, Tyson and a slue of others.
If a boxer has the popularity but not the skill set should that boxer be praised as being one of the premier fighters or should they be viewed as hype, the boxer with the skill set and not the popularity or fan base should they be looked as a top fighter with no fan base or should promoters and cable companies create a venue for their skill set to be seen?

I'm thinking that if you don't have the skills, sooner or later, you will be exposed. Boxing is a business, however, people don't typically follow losers.

We had a perfect time on this trip - was our second time with Holland and will return. Was upgraded to a suite (7080) and it was beyond any cabin we have had in the past, was a last minute past passenger rate for $199.00 will always say yes to this in the future - express checkin and lots of extra's came with the suite (even daily laundry). The service team was wonderful, great wine steward (Elmer) and room attend - suites come with a special lounge which was very nice before dinner and little treats throughout the day.
Dinners were good but not excellent - was expecting more pacific coast seafood choices. Fitness area was good and lots to do on the ship. Was nice to bring our wine on board and enjoy it in our room. Not great for entertainment but ok - checked out the movies one afternoon.
Beautiful trip and a solid full day down to Tracy Arms - great from the crows nest or your balcony - go up and back the same way so each side get the full experience. Did whale watching in Juneau was amazing a great place to walk around - on the dock is the Twisted Fish great for lunch. Then on to Sitka - did the Birds/Bears/Barnacle (sp) super fun kind of the non-profit experience and it was excellent - lunch at the crab shack I believe - excellent. Final stop was Ketchikan - do the Duck Tour is a great "local" experience.
Overall a solid A. Checkout the Canaletto for dinner they have changed the menu and service - it was excellent. Great Service and variety - will return (and the weather was amazing).

A- Copper clear color. Orangish brown hints of color. One finger head. Very pretty.
S- Smells like all those sweet and roasty malts that you would expect. Caramely.
T- Taste is good. It's mostly about the caramel malt sweetness. There is an earthy hop profile and that is nice too.
M- A medium bodied brew. Takes away from drinkability for me.
O- It's solid. Just a normal beer that bell's brewed pretty well.

On tap at Ashley's in Ann Arbor,poured into a standard pint a clear medium copper with a decent but quick to fade head,caramel and sweet dough mainly in the nose a bit toastiness not much detectable hop presence.Flavors are somewhat sweet upfront with some real caramel and sweet dough coming thru a firm toastiness held up well to the sweetness a bit of spicy hop dried it out a bit in the finish.A bit middle of the road not bad and its drinkable just not earth shattering.

Single bottle from Rileys.
Appearance: Lighter then some, copper Marzen with a thin but lasting white to off-white head.
Aroma: Toast, caramel, toffee, and sweet german malts. On the light side.
Taste: All the key qualities of an octoberfest: toast, caramel, toffee, and hints of spicy german hops just rather light.
Mouthfeel: Sweetish, light to medium bodied. Clean.
Drinkability: Easy to drink but not wowing and a touch sweet for not having much oomph.

Pours pale orange with a thin, frothy white head that stays around for the duration atop armies of big rising bubbles.
Smells of fresh grains, caramel, subtle spicy hops, with hints of pear and apple.
Taste is similar to the nose with sweet grain up front and a smooth transtion to a mildly bitter hoppy finish.
The mouthfeel is medium bodied,soft and encouraging.
A very well made, flavorful example of an octoberfest. I would definately pick this up over a lot of others.

Purchased from Three Cellars in Franklin, WI. Pours a bright amber body with a thin white head that caps the beer and lasts. Aroma is a light malt sweetness. Mouthfeel is medium bodied with a good amount of carbonation, toasted sweet malt flavors with a low bitterness in the finish an a hint of honey flavor. Overall a terrific take on the Marzen style.

Serving glass: Poured from bottle into Summit Pint glass.
Appearance: Slightly dull yellow-orange with thin white head. Only a hint of the expected copper color.
Smell: Very faint biscuit and caramel. Definitely the weakest smelling Marzen I have tried.
Taste: Very biscuity (which is true to style), with a caramel sweetness to round out the flavor. The noble hop profile is minimal. Overall, a little too sweet for a Marzen.
Feel: Moderate carbonation, medium body, not very dry for a Marzen.
Drinkability: Decent somewhat sweet lager, but a fairly weak example of a Marzen. C'mon Larry, you can do better.

Had this beer at Mad Mex in Robinson.
The head was slightly off white,thick,good retention.
Amber/coppery colors, a cloudy appearance,looks unfiltered.
The smell was caramelly,sweet,spicey and fruity a little subdued though.
Tasted bisquity,caramelly,chocolaty,not a tastey as i would have liked it to be.
The mouthfeel was a bit grainey,with a dryness,and a bittersweet finish.A bit of a light mouthfeel for an Ofest though.
A bit lacking in character.
Very drinkable,not a bad Octoberfest,it just didn't do anything for me.Just a middle of the pack Octoberfest.
I really like the Bell's beer,this one was just a little disapointing to me.

Pint in tap at Lowry in MPLS
A-a nice amber color with ruby highlights. Completely clear served with a ringing of white head.
S-not a ton going on. Some caramel malt Marzen goodness with a fair amount of alcohol aroma and a bit of cooked corn-lager style
T-much better than the smell as the alcohol and DMS taste is much weaker than the aroma and the typical caramel toasted barley malt comes to the forefront. A bit of that taste is noted on the back end which hurts this beer
M-medium bodied with average carbonation and a adjunct lager finish
O-I'm afraid I've come to expect more from Bells but this is just an average attempt from an American brewer at the German Marzen. Many better options out there.

Poured from 12 oz. bottle into a Sam Adams perfect pint glass.
Appearance: Bright and slightly cloudy amber orange with lots of bubbles. Solid three finger white head with a decent retention. Lacing is pretty light.
Smell: Lots of caramel and toasty malts with hints of toffee and biscuit. Also some wheat grains and some spicy, earthy noble hops in the background. Very caramel driven.
Taste: A fairly sweet taste of caramel, toffee, and toasted malts. A solid presence of wheat grains. Some slightly spicy and herbal hops linger around in the background. Malt driven but well balanced.
Mouthfeel: Medium bodied with a moderate level of carbonation. Very creamy, crisp, and smooth.
Overall: A pretty good take on a Marzen. Full flavored and well balanced.

3.53/5 rDev -1.4%
Appearance is slightly clouded copper with a large off white head leaves a collar of lace dwindles down and leaves behind specks of lacing. Aroma has fruity caramel sweet bready mix from the malt profile with a slight spicy character with bitey, grassy noble hop presence, seems a bit muted even after warming the brew for a little in my hands. Taste has a light noticeable alcohol note with creamy light fruty subtle caramel malt flow light bitterness with a quality overal mix of flavors finishes like a light herbal tea. My excitement exceeded the actual experience of trying this brew, I'm a pretty much overall Bell's fan but this one left me wanting a bit more flavor. Mouthfeel is light to medium bodied with moderate carbonation somewhat creamy textured with mild prickly bubbles hitting the palate. Drinkability is pretty good overall but due to the somewhat lack of flavor I'd much rather go with a Penn or Great Lakes Octoberfest brew. Nice to see a cloudy fest and I will drink it again, but I was under wowed by it.

A- Dull straw color with perfect white head. Nice and clear. Head retention and lacing is lacking though.
S- Not much stands out here. The smell of lager hops (Saaz?) is dominant in my opinion or that could be the lager yeast. I prefer the Marzens that have rich caramel malt scents.
T- Good hop spice, decent caramel malt backbone. Again nothing is extremely exciting, actually its kinda bland.
M- very light and crisp on the tounge. Nice carbonation.
D- Good dirinkablity, however this seems more like a summer refresher rather than a rich full bodied fall oktoberfest.

Appearance: Clear amber body. Off-white head. Carbonation can be seen throughout. A little retention and very mild lacing.
Smell: Caramel apples, some oat/grain, toffee, and nuts.
Taste: Roasted nuts come through first then with the caramel red apples. The toffee, oats and grain linger on the tongue.
Mouthfeel: Medium body. Nice carbonation.
Drinkability: You can pound these back all night.

3.5/5 rDev -2.2%
On-tap at Trappeze in Athens, GA.
Pours a clear orange-amber color with a half-finger off-white head. The head recedes into a wispy layer on top leaving light lacing.
Smells of mild caramel malts with hints of bread and herbal hops.
Tastes similar to how it smells. Sweet caramel malt flavors up front with hints of earthy hops that fade before a mildly sweet ending.
Mouthfeel is good. It has a decent thickness with moderate carbonation.
Drinkability is alright. I finished my glass but I'm not sure about another.
Overall this was a lackluster attempt at the style from a brewery that doesn't usually miss hitting the nail on the head. The flavors don't pop enough and it just doesn't have enough body.

METAIRIE, La. — Jed Collins was torn Sunday.
He wanted to dance but knew he couldn't, not with the Saints still trailing San Francisco in a critical NFC game at the Mercedes-Benz Superdome.
Instead, he stood tall, briefly staring into the stands, taking in the moment.
"I was cut 13 times," Collins said. "I've been on eight different teams. (To) tell me that I was going to have my name called to come out in the Superdome or score a touchdown in the NFL, (those) are dreams I never thought I'd get to accomplish.
"Every time I get to do it I really try to embrace it and enjoy the moment."
Collins' moments have been few and far between in 27 games with the Saints. He has only two rushing touchdowns and five receiving. But when he gets the ball, he's likely to score – he has seven career touchdowns on 23 career touches.
He's cognizant of the fact that he's not the Saints' first scoring option, saying he's more like the "11th or 12th option in our system." Instead, his role could be likened to that of an enforcer in hockey.
When he's in the game, it's going to get physical.
"That's the kind of player I am," Collins said. "That's what I'm going to do."
Collins is a throwback to a bygone era, one in which the fullback was an integral part of any offense. In spite of New Orleans running a pass-happy offense, Collins has found niche inside of it.
Those around him have taken notice.
"He loves the noise, he loves to get in there and make contact," Saints offensive coordinator Pete Carmichael said. "I think he takes some pride in that."
Added Saints tackle Zach Strief, "He certainly embraces that role. I think it's obvious from the way plays, that he feels that his role is to come in and be physical and he does that very well for us."
And that's something he never thought he'd find after fighting for years to get into the NFL as an undrafted free agent out of Washington State in 2008.
"My wife and I kind of take a moment at least once a week and kind of sit back and smile and just enjoy how comfortable we've gotten," Collins said. "Not complacent but we have made New Orleans home and that's something I never thought I was going to get to be able to do."
Collins has built a steady following on Twitter, becoming a sort of cult hero for his often-times thought-provoking tweets.
Make no mistake, though. His reputation and following has as much to do with his style of play on the field as anything else.
Inside the Saints' locker room, he's as well-liked as anyone. But maybe no more so than by the offensive linemen, who feel a connection with him.
When Collins bounced to his feet after tumbling into the end zone against the 49ers, tackle Will Robinson was the first to meet him, to celebrate the score.
"That's as close to a lineman scoring as we're going to get," Strief said. "He does kind of like a thankless job and I think we identify with that as linemen. Jed runs full speed into other grown men. It's a big impact and there's not a lot of praise involved in it."
Whatever his role is, Collins isn't going to care. After three years of constant moving and what-ifs, he's an integral part of an NFL roster.
"Again, in our system with our weapons, our tools, I think I have a great role and I'm happy in it," Collins said. "Anything I can get, I'm just happy. I'm happy to be here and keep playing."

Do you have rabbits or other pests in this garden.

Re: Garden Pics
You'll see weeds in my garden now. They are nowhere near growing plants, so I just let them go until I plow. Pumpkins and tomatoes did suprisingly well for a drought year. All my bell peppers had blossom end rot, a first for me. Potatoes were small, onions were even smaller. Jalopenos did real well as usual. here's some pic's from this morning.

B&O Railroad
Started in 1827
State and Baltimore joined with representatives of the Baltimore & Ohio Railroad here today in the celebration of the hundredth anniversary of the charter to the railroad to operate the FIRST general freight and passenger line on this continent.
On Feb. 28, 1827, the state of Maryland authorized a newly organized company to construct a railroad from the city of Baltimore to some point on the Ohio River. This grant was the beginning of railroading on the Western Hemisphere.
The founders of that first railroad project were farseeing enough to realize the value of a rail connection between the sea at Baltimore and the great mid-continental waterways transportation system which they planned to tap at the Ohio River. But the builders of those first railroads could not have dreamed that the United States was to fill the continent from Atlantic to Pacific within less than a century the rapid development of all facilities which were to bring Baltimore almost as near to San Francisco as it was then to Boston.

Delphos Lost a Chance
Delphos has let a chance to secure a manufactory slip through her finger, as the following dispatch from Bowling Green will show:
"A company has been formed here to manufacture patent railroad crossings, and a factory will be built in the near future. W.R. Cochran of Delphos is the inventor.

Freight Service Between
Delphos and Lima
According to the following, taken from the Lima Gazette, Motor Truck freight service will be established between Delphos and Lima in the near future:
"Automobile freight service between Lima and surrounding towns will be started about Aug. 15, Ira Wagner, president of the Lima Rapid Transfer Co. announced last evening. Four big trucks with trailers will be used in the beginning. Other trucks will be carried to St. Marys, Celina, Ohio City, Wapakoneta, Mendon, Buckland, Cridersville, Spencerville, Delphos, Van Wert and other nearby towns. It will be especially desirable between Delphos and nearby towns if he canal project is successfully carried out here. The large freight barges would then unload merchandise for Lima, Van Wert, and other nearby towns at wharves in Delphos, and it would then be taken by trucks to the merchants and factories of those cities.

Delphos Eagles Band
The Delphos Eagles' band is to present an exceptionally fine appearance when it enters the big parade which will be staged at the convention of the Northwestern Volunteer Firemen's Association here June 15.
At a meeting of the band held Wednesday night, R.K. Zimmer, Columbus, conferred with the members of the band with regard to new parade uniforms and the band boys decided to raise money for this purpose.
Handsome uniforms of the Hussar Type were selected. They will be blue trimmed with gold. White capes trimmed with black astrakhan and black astrakhan caps with gold tops will complete the uniforms.
On the fronts of the caps will be gold eagles and on the sides will appear the name 'Delphos'.
The uniforms will probably be worn for the first time at the Fireman's convention. They will be kept for parade purposes only, the old uniforms being used for other purposes or occasions.
W.G. Point, leader of the band, announced Thursday that he had contracted with the Dixie Jubilee Singers for two concerts to be given on April 18 and 19. These concerts will be held at the Jefferson auditorium.
The proceeds will be put in a fund for the new uniforms.
The Dixie Jubilee Singers were in Delphos recently and sang for the Kiwanis Club. They provided excellent entertainment and the people of Delphos will have a treat in store for them on the dates mentioned.

Dog Does Not
Like Suicide
Their dog's distaste of suicide, or at least to gas as a way to commit suicide was responsible for the rescue alive of an accountant and his wife who attempted to asphyxiate themselves.
Because they wished that their dog should accompany them into the beyond, they had shut their dog up in the house with them and locked windows and doors.
The dog had different views. As soon as the gas became unpleasant, he sought fresh air by jumping through the glass window pane.
Running to the porter, the dog barked until the latter investigated.
The dog's master and mistress resuscitated and now all three are trying to make the best of life.
