Had this on tap and bottled, the keg version is better.
Pours a shimmering orange-amber ale in the glass with a decent tan colored sticky cap. Big lacing qualities. Modest carbonation.
Aroma was very pleasant:but subtle; Floral-citrus-fruity aroma over substantial bready sweet malts, some peach and passion fruit.
Rich malt spine, hoppy bitter character. Big chew on amber malts in front, no cloying, decent balance with citrus-resinous hopping, some succulent fruit tones, thick malty middle leads to a long rich finish with some intense bittering and a metallic after sting from long boil hops.
A really decent huge west coast ESB reminiscent of the Executioner's ale but better body and more bitterness. Really tasty and satisfying but a tad bitter for an IPA...I think we have a new genre here...west coast radical ESB

Bottle picked up at the brewery. Bottled TODAY. Love it.
Poured into a tapered ale glass. A brilliant colour - predominantly ruby-russet, brown in the darkness, cherry red when held to the light. Good frothy head, leaves a slight ring after a few minutes, with patches of lacing scattered throughout the glass. Looks great.
Nose is malty, with notes of caramel and toffee. Bread, biscuits, citrus hop tang.
A maltier, hoppier version of Plowman's, one of my favorite Ontario brews. A good use of hops here, both earthy and citrus notes. Very slight banana flavor. The caramel and toffee poke their heads in every so often, smoothing things out. Very tasty and balanced.
Slightly thick for a pale ale, but light, crisp carbonation helps make Anniversary a fine drinker.
Good spin on the original Plowmans. I argue that this could compete with many an American IPA. Thanks Bob and Rob!

Pours average, and only a faint hoppy aroma. Yet a tasty beer. I agree, the Plowman wth more hops and malts. Tad above average mouthfeel. I could drink this all night. Closer to the British style IPA. Citrus hoppy,orange and tangerine, and very drinkable, and refreshing.Thanks for picking some up, Derek.

Courtesy of northyorksammy (thank you sir!) - poured from a 500mL (?) bottle into my Dogfish Head shaped pint glass. Bottled June 22nd, 2010.
Persian red body, clear with flame highlights - a messy beige head recedes to a whipped half finger. Thick ropy lacing.
A bit of diacetyl mars the aromatics, which otherwise suggest malt and light C-hops.
Marshmallow, earth, biscuity malt, and mild pine on the palate. Sweet and smooth with a lightly bitter faintly herbal finish.
Creamy, well carbonated, medium-bodied mouthfeel - more of an amber than an IPA I think - and more British than American; a bit rustic, but nice to have on a warm day none the less.

Nice to see this make it's way up to Sudbury. Pours with a light head some lacing as it subsides. Amber in color.
Smells of floral hops, sweet malt, bread and some caramel.
Tastes great, well balanced, still nice and hoppy. Caramel malts, citrus, fruits and some toasted rye bread.

On tap at C'est What, into a pint glass.
Poured a clear, dark amber with a small offwhite head, with insignificant retention and some nice lacing. Aroma has some grapefruit and other light citrus , but the malt plays a bigger role in the nose here. Light roastiness, bit of caramel/toffee in the malt and some darker bread here also. This works in with the citrus hop notes, but not too complex or mind-blowing in terms of the flavour. Taste is quite bitter upfront, but the malt isn't showcased significantly enough in my eyes here (detracts a bit from the flavour I believe). Lingering bitterness (relatively long finish), and mouthfeel is a bit thin and watery however. Drinkability is quite good however, not a spectacular effort overall in my eyes.

bobsy shared this one. thanks rob!
500ml bottle. sampled july 3/2010.
pours crystal clear reddish amber with a small dense light tan head. the head drops fast with no lace.
aroma is nice. hint of alcohol. caramel and toffee. whole wheat bread. biscuit. bit of cracker. earthy and slightly woody. no real sign of hops so far.
taste is nice. caramel and toffee. bit of butterscotch. whole wheat bread. biscuit. just over medium bitterness level. earthy and a bit woody. light alcohol.
mouthfeel is good. medium body. just under medium carbonation level.
drinkability is nice. very little hop presence, but fairly well balanced. i was told that another bottle had more pronounced hopping than this one, so i'll have to try this one again.

A new summer seasonal for their 3rd anniversary.
This has the same American hopping as the original batch of Plowman's, but they've added some malt to bring it into IPA territory.
The hopping is all American (Warrior & Tomahawk?), the malt is boardering on an "American Amber", but fruity yeast & hard water is more British... A "Canadian" IPA perhaps?
A: Deep amber with an off-white head, light retention & lacing.
S: Great American hop aroma (pine & grass with a little pepper & citrus rind). A light fruitiness & hints of alcohol.
T: Nice American hopping (pine, citrus rind, nectarine, grass), biscuity malt with hints of nut & caramel. Pleasant, light fruitiness from the yeast. A little alcohol warmth. Personally, I wouldn't have scaled this up quite as much (there's a little more caramel than most of their brews, along with some alcohol warmth, though it is quite fresh).
M: A very light residual sweetness with a slightly drying alcohol finish.
D: A good drinker.
I still think the first batch of Plowman's was one of their best brews, heck, one of Canada's best brews. It had the hopping to match a 3 floyd's alpha king, but had a nicer malt backbone despite its more sessionable weight.

500 ml bottle, thanks to Derek for sharing.
Pours a clear amber/orange, some light reddish highlights, medium sized off white head forms and settles down to a thin ring around the glass, drops some lace spots on the way down.
Smell is alright, pretty buttery, some light floral, caramel, a bit woody, kind of weird and muddled, light citrus hoppiness, some biscuit, a little earthy, more butter, lightly fruity.
Taste is similar, less butter but still a diacetyl problem, a bit of caramel and some biscuity malt, grainy middle, some floral hopping, a bit perfumy, a touch of citrus and fruit, herbal bitterness in the finish.
Mouthfeel is medium bodied with low to medium carbonation. Not bad but not good, I enjoy the regular Plowmans better. Thanks Derek!

Remember enjoying this fresh and thinking it was the best thing Grand River had ever brewed. Unfortunately, this Jul 27 2010 bottled has not aged as majestically as I'd hoped.
Bottle seal was great and still pours a beautifully clear and bright dark amber, with decent off-white head and lacing. However aroma now has some oak tannin funkiness that I don't think were barrel conditioned. Hops have faded into a sweeter upfront taste, although the finish is still delightfully (almost piercingly) bitter.
Think the world of Grand River for brewing one of their standard beers with Warrior hops - shame on me for saving it for so long.

On tap at Volo. I've wanted to try this beer for a while, but it seems every time I try to this at C'est What they are already out.
Poured a amber-orange colour with nice white head and lacing down the pint glass. Smell of floral and citrus hops with a nice caramel sweetness. Bitterness less than I expected from the smell, but still some hop bite there in the taste. I'm not sure if Grand River plans to keep making this, but I hope they do because it is a winner.

500ml bottle fresh from the brewery, bottled on aug. 3rd 2010.
A- Nice red color with a sticky finger thick head of foam. Layers of lace.
S- Nice aormas of fresh brown bread and caramel with piney, grassy hops in the nose as well.
T- Malty brew with good backbone. Multi-grain bread, touch of toffee, slightly herbal with strong mineral characteristics from Cambridge's "hard" water. Hops are present with citrus notes but far from overpowering, bringing forth a nicely balanced brew with good bitterness in the end.
M- Well carbonated , medium bodied, slightly powdery.
D- Alcohol is hidden well....delicious brew...bad combo haha
Overall a great brew. Not an american IPA but good nontheless. I was hoping for it to be more along the lines of the intial Plowmans Ale released when the brewery first opened...Massively bitter beer full of hops.
Great brewery!

I'm just going to cut and paste my regular Plowman's review and add to as necessary, as this is just what I expected: A beefed up version of it. Plus I'm lazy.
Looks great, a dark amber, pours with a nice chunky head with some wonderful lacing.
Smell is sweet caramel and slightly piney. Incredibly subdued though.
The hops are floral and citrus which is nicely balanced against a toasted bread and a toffee malt backbone. There's not much to complain about here. There seems like a lot more minerality and chalkiness to the anniversary edition which works in tandem with the bitterness and sweet caramel malt to bring this beer in perfect harmony.
The mouthfeel is full and crisp. Good carbonation. Just spot on.
Overall a really nice and drinkable ale, incredibly English and reminiscent of Black Sheep. I like it a lot. And with a bottled on date of July 21, it doesn't get much fresher than that.

From looking at the label, this is largely based on the original Ploughman's Ale, but with a touch more malt body, and a greater degree of hopping, which has raised the IBU level. Bottle shared by Derek.
Pours a deep amber with a skiff of off-white head taht left some lace spots as it faded and broke up. The nose has some nice citrus to it, with grapefruit pith coming to mind, but its also has something of a spiciness to it that adds depth. Backing this up is some sweet fruity malt, though the emphasis is certainly on the hops.
Good balance in the flavour between big caramel, fruity malts, and spicy , lightly citrus hopping. The bitterness seems a little toned down by the sweetness, but is accentuated by a dry and slightly alcoholic finish. Medium body and carbonation aid drinkability.
This beer still seems to err towards an American Amber for me, which is fine as it makes no claim to a particular style. The hopping is slightly too subdued to encroach on IPA territory, and the malt is more prominent than most examples of that style. Anyway, its a very drinkable, flavourful ale with a nice bite to it, and I think its an improvement over the regular Ploughman's.

Toledo police are still searching for two suspects who they say punched an elderly woman in the face when she refused to let them take her bag. This happened last Thursday morning in the 6000 block of Lewis Avenue in west Toledo.
Police say the 76-year-old was walking to work at McDonald's around 5 a.m. when she was ambushed and attacked by two men. Police say she was unable to get a good look, but they hope people in the neighborhood may be able to help fill in the blanks.
According to police, one of the woman's coworkers called 911 after she came into work with a bloody nose and mouth. Police say the woman was approached from behind by two men who tried to snatch her purse. When the victim would not give it to them, police say the suspects got violent.
"It's one thing to steal an older woman's purse, but to punch her in the face like this person did to the point where she's going to need some facial surgery, it's just really heinous," said Sgt. Joe Heffernan with the Toledo Police Department.
The two suspects are still on the run. Anyone with information is urged to call CrimeStopper at 419-255-1111.

TUCSON, Ariz. (AP) - A Tucson man is facing up to 10 years in prison after being convicted of second-degree murder in the stabbing of his girlfriend last year.
Jurors in Pima County Superior Court on Friday decided that 20-year-old Carlos Torres intentionally stabbed Ignacia Aranda to death, but did so without premeditation.
The Arizona Daily Star (http://bit.ly/RMceJq) says Torres is scheduled to be sentenced Dec. 10.
Prosecutors had sought a first-degree murder conviction for Torres.
They say he killed the 17-year-old Aranda in the presence of their 18-month-old daughter on Aug. 8, 2011.
Prosecutors say Torres argued with Aranda because she went through his belongings while he was visiting another girlfriend.
An autopsy revealed Aranda had been stabbed in the face and neck between 19 and 25 times.

Broken Group Islands, Pacific Rim National Park Reserve (JF Bergeron photo)
British Columbia has more than 1,100 different wildlife species and some of the most diverse ecosystems in the world.
Spotting wildlife in BC can take place at unexpected times and places. Hiking, boating and even driving BC's highways present opportunities for wildlife viewing. Bighorn sheep, moose, mountain goats, bears, whales, and sea lions are a few of the wildlife species that can be seen here.
For the best experience, consider a professionally guided wildlife tour. Trained guides and naturalists take visitors into natural environments safely, informatively and in comfort.

Hiking is a great self-guided way to see wildlife in the mountains. Inland, the parks, grasslands and forests are alive with moose, mountain goats, and bighorn sheep. Canoe the countless lakes, rivers and wetlands that make for prime bird watching habitat.
A driving tour is a great way to view the wildlife and landscape; in BC, even the highways are prime wildlife viewing areas.
Animals are most active around dawn and dusk and many species of wildlife are seasonal. Visitor centres can provide information on local wildlife, habitat and behaviour and can also help book tours.
Check out nature and wildlife viewing trip ideas for some suggestions on where to see bald eagles, bears, tidal pools and more.

Pomettas Balsamic Vinegar (P/N 7348). Sonoma Gourmet Specialty Food Company, located in Sonoma, California, is owned and operated by Chefs Roger Declercq and Bill Weber.The idea of producing restaurant quality sauces and condiments for the retail market was conceived while the two chefs were employed preparing fine foods in the ski resort restaurants around Lake Tahoe. The ambiance of the California Wine Country with its well-earned reputation for fine food and drink drew Bill and Roger to Sonoma County and to the founding of Sonoma Gourmet in the spring of 1990.
Pometta's extra-virgin cold-pressed olive oil (sold separately) comes from California's wine country, and 15-year old northern Italian Balsamic vinegar are luxurious essentials for any chef.

Happy Birthday Oakwood by Oakwood - 12 months ago
"OAKWOOD SCHOOL CELEBRATES 15 YEARS Oakwood School, located at 105 John Wilson Way in the south end of Morgan Hill, celebrated their 15 Year birthday in style on Monday, September 16. The entire student body and staff gathered for a picture and all were wearing their grade level spirit shirts. Then, after a rousing Happy Birthday sing a long and a school wide wave, everyone enjoyed cupcakes and ice cream while some students continued with dancing. Fifteen years ago the school opened in portable buildings while the permanent buildings were under construction. Since then, the school has grown and provides a more intentional education for students from pre-school through high school. Oakwood is Morgan Hill's independent, non-sectarian, college-preparatory school. The school has a diverse community, thriving on an expansive campus and provides a home for an extended family of learners. Oakwood students also kicked off their Fund Run fundraiser which will culminate on September 27. Students will be soliciting donations and then participate in running laps around a track, surviving an obstacle course and then celebrating with a family social BBQ. If you would like more information about Oakwood School and their events please visit their website at pictureoakwood.com or call 408 782-7177 Working with CustomInk has been GREAT!!! Every employee of CustomInk has been extremely helpful and accommodating. They went out of their way to get us additional shirts when we needed them and their service is very speedy and great quality. Thank you CUSTOMINK! Oakwood looks GREAT in your shirts!"

A large number of concerned citizens gathered outside the steps of City Hall at noon today to peacefully protest the way the election is being handled.
I'm just here as a concerned citizen," Hattiesburg resident Brandon Thaxton said. "This is not even about Dave Ware or Johnny DuPree at this point."
"I'm not out here for one person," Ellen Bevon mirrored. "I'm out here for everyone. I believe something has occurred that's not fair that could possibly be illegal, and I want to know the truth."
Several protestors suggest that officials are not following the law.
"It needs to be counted according to these Mississippi laws, and if our election commission isn't going to follow those laws, who are they held accountable to?" Hattiesburg business owner Carrie Robertson asked. "And if not to them, I'm here because they're going to be held accountable to me."
"I'm just a regular dude," Thaxton said. "I started this group because I'm a regular guy. I'm not really into politics. I'll be honest with you, but the fact that I bust my butt in this town to earn a living to put food on my table, this is where my tax dollars are going."
Many citizens claim this election to be based on race.
"They're turning it into a racial issue, and it's really not about a racial issue," Hattiesburg resident Alanzo Flemming said. "It's about corruption. You want policies that work. You want those policies articulated. You want to know who this guy is you're voting into office."
Some even say they're running out of hope...
"It's like you lose faith in the system itself," Flemming said.
"At this point, I have no faith in the election process," Robertson said. "Does my vote matter?"
Many questions are raised regarding Secretary of State Delbert Hosemann's involvement.
"You were on the radio the day after the election saying that everything went well and went smoothly, but is that really what happened?" Thaxton asked. "I want answers."
The majority of residents agree that they are ready to see this process come to an end.
"You've got a lot of emotions running high, and a lot of hearts hurting, and I hope that at the end..whatever the end result is...that it will be fair and those hearts will be healed," Bevon said.

Chris Brown tests positive for marijuana
R&B superstar Chris Brown will be heading to court after testing positive for marijuana while on probation for his infamous 2009 assault on pop star Rihanna.
Brown tested positive in June in Virginia, where he had been fulfilling the community service portion of his sentence.
He was sentenced to five years of probation for the assault, presented a medical marijuana card after the positive test.
Though Los Angeles superior court judge Patricia Schnegg noted that mandatory drug testing was not a condition of brown's probation, she has scheduled a hearing for November 1 to determine whether brown violated probation and properly finished his community service.
The star has also been busy dealing with a $16 million lawsuit and other fallout from his June brawl with Drake in a New York nightclub earlier this year.

As if Keiera Ray's performance last week didn't stand out enough, it is now being recognized on a national scale.
The freshman guard became the first Ivy League player to win the Ann Meyers Drysdale Women's National Player of the Week, given out by the U.S. Basketball Writers Association (USBWA).
Ray led the Quakers to two wins over Harvard and Dartmouth last weekend, scoring 50 combined points over the course of the two games. This included a 31-point effort against Harvard that culminated with seven free throws in the final 80 seconds of the game. That performance helped secure Penn's first victory over the Crimson since 2004.
Ray was also selected as co-Ivy League Player of the Week with Princeton's Niveen Rasheed while also being named Ivy League Rookie of the Week. It was the first time this season that a Penn women's basketball player received the Ancient Eight's Player of the Week award.
The 5-foot-11 guard's performance on Friday and Saturday helped move the Red and Blue into second place in the Ivy League while giving Penn its best seven-game start to conference play since 2004.

On tap today at Portsmouth Brewery. Advertised as 8% abv, not the 11.9% reported here.
Served in a tulip glass. Slightly hazy orange color with an ample bone white head that leaves good lacing.
Fruity aroma with a bit of spice. Taste is of fruity, estery Belgian yeast notes. There is relatively little spicy notes and little hop character or bitterness.
Fairly full body with some sweetness. Little hop or dry finish to cleanse the palate.
Overall, a pleasant brew, but without the refinement or dimensions to compete with many entries in this class.

A-Clear orange, carbonated, two finger head
S-Clove banana, some darker fruits, quadesque.
T-Nice dark fruits, some clove and a few banana notes, a little bit of spice.
M-Medium to light bodied with nice carbonation.
O-A well made Belgian Beer, most likely is the best on the Kates on tap.

Tap at brew pub
Big creamy fluffy head fades at a med rate no lacing though, clear golden honey orange.
Nose big golden malts, Belgian like, plenty of aromatic malt, light phenols and acetyl like chemicals, hint fruity hops.
Taste starts with typical Belgian phenols, no real medicinal flavors (at first), nice belgian golden malts, bit of booze, hint of fruity hops, light glue and plastic starts to come through as it warms. Finish is drier, bit more booze, little bitter.
Mouth is med to a bit heavier bodied, decent carb.
Not sure if this was a bad batch or what, but I got lots of phenols in this one, glue, plastic, acidic like, either way I'll have to try this again sometime and hopefully not get those same characteristics.

s - sweet candied bubblegum. lemon and sage.
t - taste follows the nose. bursts of lemon. bubblegum. sage. candy. just deliscious. not too sweet.
m - alive. a bit fizzy. medium to light bodied.
o - overall a solid BSPA. i love the no frills vibe of their beers and this is just a home run. just an easy drinker. the booze is well masked. very great beer and i'm very glad i got to try it.

603BeerMe came through with this longtime want. Thanks!!! 2011 bottling, into chouffe tulip.
A- Glowing goldenrod with an earthy brown hue. Big snowy fluffy head. Like a cloud... moderate but attractive lace.
S- Great inviting belgian yeast. Light and fruity.
T- Fruity, lemony, white grapes and ripe green apple sweetness.. clove, vanilla, cinnamon. Bubblegum. Fantastic, dominant yeast profile.
M- No sign of ABV, splendidly carbonated, great finish. Bomber goes inexplicably fast...
O- One of my favorite styles, and frankly, I haven't found too many good US takes on it. This is one of the best I've had- from anywhere. I want a case of bottles, a box of growlers, and 6 kegs of this stuff..

Enjoyed in a tulip glass at Portsmouth Brewery. The head was a finger plus of creamy white head that settled and became a lacing machines. The beer was a bright slightly hazy brass color.
Aroma was fairly light, but fresh and appealing. Light doughy grain, some white pepper and other spices with a hint of yeast.
Really nice flavor. Bubble gum, spice, very bready and lots of light fruit. Pear, white grape. The belgian yeast notes with the bubble gum are fantastic. Actually the more I think of it, the more its like Juicy Fruit gum. Excellent. The hop bitterness towards the end is perfectly balanced with the fruity/yeasty/ready notes.
A twinkle of carbonation. Light on your tongue. Fresh and alive.
Fantastic beer.

Had this on tap after the Buffalo Tom set at the Music Hall Loft. Very Saison-esque but heavy on the citrus fruit notes. Nose was heavy of Belgian yeast and fruit, and the mouthfeel was pleasant. A nice Belgian-style beer but a change of pace for the P-brew. A very enjoyable beer.

So I am in New Hampshire for the Great Bay Half Marathon...its the night before a race and ....why not drink some....ok....alot of the local beer!!! The Grand Cru from Portsmouth is good. This beer has was a pale hazy yellow in color with thin white head and decent lace. The nose on this beer is clovey and has a subtle lemony/citrus. This beer was light and crisp in taste dominated by Clove! The smell funnels into the taste of this beer. The heavy ABV leads to this beer being a Session Killer...certainly worth a taste.

4.13/5 rDev -0.7%
Had on tap at the brewpub today. Pours a golden orange body with a thick and sticky white colored head which hangs around for quite awhile.
Sweet and malty aromatics. A bit of a bubblegum aroma and some lemony citrus, which is balanced out by a slight spicey yeast note.
Fruity body upfront with lots of citrus fruit and some of that same bubblegum note. A bit of an earthy and bitter hop presence but this seems to be masked by a stronger peppery spice note from the yeast.
Creamy medium body feel makes this quite refreshing. Overall, another excellent beer from Portsmouth. Definitely worth a try if you see it on-tap.

Vintage 2007
Pours clear orangy-gold, with a humble quarter-inch head of white.
A few dots of lacework and no real retention to speak of. A placid surface throughout.
The aromatics are laced with tropical fruit, bubblegum, and phenols.
Tangerines and passionfruit with hints of golden raisins and light rum.
Medium bodied, a bit sticky and syrupy. The low carbonation detracts.
Quite juicy and fruity on the pallet. Peaches with shades of Grand Marnier, pear bubblegum, and cracked coriander. Alcohol is barely apparent, and the beer drinks quite fast.
Finishes with lingering ripe fruit, lightly sweet malt, and warming alcohol.
I was relatively unimpressed with this beer young, but after almost a year it has really cellared into something special.
Too bad on the low carbonation. If this was carbonated like a Belgian should be, it would be over the top!

Pours an amber orange brown leaving a thin tan lace. The aroma is fruity, orange, tangerines, plums, exotic fruit. The taste is very smooth, nice fruity malt sweetness upfront but balanced with a nice hoppy freshness of light bitter earthy hops hard to place but very familiar. This is fantastic one of the best grand cru I've had very solid.

Presentation: 22 oz bomber, from Portsmouth Brewery.
Appearance: A dark orange color, with a small head that slowly dissipates.
Aroma: a delicious smell of spice, fruit, and a bit of citrus.
Taste and Mouthfeel: A pleasant, smooth mouthfeel. Well balanced citrus and hops, with spice and hints of cilantro. It is sweet, but not overly so just enough to make this incredibly tasty.
Drinkability: This is a wonderful beer, a first rate Belgian strong pale ale, and in my humble opinion one of the best beers from a top brewery. You would never know it has a high alcohol content, as it goes down smoothly and quickly. I had several at the brew pub, and liked them so much I took a few bottles home. It is probably a good thing it is a seasonal offering, as this one could become addictive.

This beer showed-up all dressed to kill in its special glass fitting its namesake. Its crown was just a whisper under a pinky and quickly settled down to dispersed conversation around the rim of the glass. This talk was maintained throughout the drink and they were the last to leave the glass upon the final sip.
The taste was very pleasing and well balanced. Echoing the previous reviews, this is a very approachable brew. However, its drinkability is dangerously high given the alcohol content. Enjoy!

After years of dithering and months of debate, Cincinnati City Council narrowly approved a plan Wednesday to make changes to the cash-strapped pension plan for municipal workers. But a local GOP leader is confused about who voted for what.
CityBeat's ongoing coverage of the non-incumbent candidates for Cincinnati City Council continues with a question on council's recent budget dispute, about where reductions should be made and whether police officers should face possible layoffs.
In the first part of a two-part question, we ask, "During the recent budget showdown on City Council, what — if anything — could've been done differently?"
Federal, state and local officials will meet with a neighborhood group later this month to discuss efforts to improve safety and promote economic development in Price Hill.
The group, Price Hill Will, is hosting a town hall meeting Feb. 18 that will feature a panel of politicians. Those scheduled to attend are U.S. Rep. Steve Driehaus, State Rep. Denise Driehaus, Hamilton County Commissioner Greg Hartmann and Cincinnati City Councilman Greg Harris.
Facing a $33 million deficit for next year, Cincinnati officials are facing some tough choices — including the city manager's recommendation to layoff 44 police officers. Now the public may chime in and offer suggestions.
City Council's Budget and Finance Committee has scheduled four public hearings this month at different locations throughout Cincinnati, with the first set for this week.
A tri-partisan mix of Cincinnati City Council members are once again reaching across party lines to hold a joint fundraiser — and bragging quite a bit while doing it.
Democrat Jeff Berding, Republican Leslie Ghiz and Charterite Chris Bortz are holding a campaign fundraiser together on Oct. 7. The trio also held a joint fundraiser in 2007 and often receives campaigning advice from Jeff Cramerding, executive director of the Charter Committee, Cincinnati's de facto third political party.
Cincinnati City Council on Friday approved a budget that relies on parking privatization as a means to plug a $34 million budget deficit while also raising property taxes in 2014.
Mayor Mark Mallory opened up the council meeting with a moment of silent prayer for the 27 students and adults killed at an elementary school in Connecticut.
"I want us all to take a moment and put into perspective what we're doing today," he said.
Council voted to increase the property tax by about 24 percent, from 4.6 mills (a mill is equal to one-tenth of a cent) to 5.71 mills. That means Cincinnatians would pay an additional $34 for every $100,000 of their home's value.
The vote reverses a move made last year by conservatives on council, who reduced property taxes.
Council also passed a budget that relies on $21 million from a proposed lease of the city's parking facilities — a deal that is expected to be voted on in March. Of the proposals submitted to the city so far, Cincinnati stands to gain $100 million to $150 million in an upfront payment and a share of the profits over the 30-year lease.
"My concern about balancing this budget with a onetime revenue source by selling our parking system seems to be ill advised," said Independent Councilman Chris Smitherman. "We don't know how council will vote in March … but we have tied not only the budget to this one time revenue source, but we have also tied reciprocity."
Council nixed a plan to eliminate tax reciprocity for people who lived in Cincinnati but worked elsewhere and paid income tax in both cities.
Though the budget doesn't mention parking privatization, council hasn't mentioned other options to close the budget deficit.
If opponents of parking privatization want to keep facilities under city control, they would have to come up with $21 million in revenue elsewhere or make $21 million in cuts.
Councilman P.G. Sittenfeld suggested using casino revenue, cutting travel expenses, downsizing the ratio of managers to workers, sharing services with nearby jurisdictions and downsizing the city's fleet as ways to cut down the budget.
Councilwoman Laure Quinlivan, long an advocate of downsizing the police and fire departments, voted against the property tax increase in protest of what she said was bloated spending on departments that were outpacing population growth.
The budget also requires Cincinnati to accept police and fire recruit classes in 2014, regardless of whether the city gets a federal grant to fund the classes.
The budget also restores the Cincinnati Police Department's mounted patrol, which patrols downtown on horseback. The city will use $105,000 from off-duty detail fees from businesses that hire off-duty officers. Council also voted to start charging those businesses an extra $1.64 on top of the off-duty pay.
Council also voted to shift $50,000 for repairs and upgrades to the Contemporary Arts Center to pay for maintenance and beautification at Washington Park, which is operated by 3CDC.
A group of Northside residents is working to raise $45,000 needed to open the neighborhood's swimming pool this summer, after the facility became the victim of the city's budget cuts.
The Working Families Movement of Northside held a rally March 24 to kickoff its fundraising effort. The group wants the pool at the city-owned McKie Recreation Center on Chase Avenue to open this summer, so neighborhood children — many of whom are low income — can use it during the warm weather months.

Work starts to repair pavement ripped up by violent storms in Shore Road
Updated 9:02am Thursday 20th February 2014 in News
WORK to repair a 40-70 sq metre section of pavement in Shore Road, Sandbanks gouged out by last weekend's storm, is due to start today.
The pavement was damaged when the road was flooded by around 4ft of tidal water last Friday night and Borough of Poole says the work will continue on Friday.
Further work was carried out last night with two oak trees felled on Gravel Hill between 9.30pm and midnight, with a temporary road closure in place between Darby's Corner and Dunyeats Road to allow for their safe removal.
Traffic controls will be in place today from 10am.

UFC Gifs – Another Look At The BJ Penn vs Nick Diaz Weigh-In And Face-Off.
heheheh!! today it's bj penn's time to break diaz win streak!!
F*** yeah… Real fighters .. F*** GSP
I've heard people say that BJ has no chance. I guess they think that 5 straight yrs of whooping hasbeens and cans get's a dude ready for the Prodigy?
Dana for Ref of the Night Bonus
Diaz is gonna TKO BJ, I'm a big BJ Fan but Diaz is a monster at welterweight BJ is a natural lightweight.
I got Cash on Diaz.
Cardio – Diaz by a Mile
Reach – Diaz
Punching Power – Diaz
No Gi BJJ – Diaz (BJ has not competed BJJ recently and has not won No Gi Championships)
Speed – BJ
Wrestling – BJ
Age – Diaz is a lot younger and fresher than BJ
The Fight will be decided on the feet they will both try to out bang the other in a Boxing / Kick Boxing Match.
Like a said I am a huge BJ fan from when he fought Machida like 10 years ago.
But Diaz will F*** him up BJ should go back to LightWeight.
Looks like Diaz actually threw a bitch slap there. If that had hit BJ…
Whatta tool Diaz is. He ain't acting like some guys either, thats legitimately how he is. Straight up gangster street Thug with Triathlon stamina with serious MMA skills. How do you beat that?
I like Diaz more than BJ, so I will root for Diaz, but my money is on BJ. BJ has more skills IMO and those will be on display here. The only wildcard in my mind will be stamina, if Diaz can survive BJ Penns onslaught and take it to the later rounds he has a chance, but what a great fight this should be. BJ by KO.
cant wait!!!
No one suspects this is to sell PPV's .. they have to act sometimes, they are not going to fight there I promise they dont get paid and guess what they fight gets canceled
watch Lorenzo face
diaz started that.. f***** tool can't wait to see him get his ass whooped.
Penn will finish Diaz with punches in rounds 1 or 2. I called Penn winning by SD before, but now that I think about it, Diaz will be 'winning' on the feet and Penn will find a money shot and put Diaz down and then finish him off. Difference between Penn and Daley is that Penn will know how to then finish (not that Daley wasn't close).
I'm one of the people saying BJ has no chance… I hope I'm proved wrong but I doubt it.
LOL Man thats all business right there….not like Chael SOnnen talking so much s*** and doing nothing…..
bad fight for bj…he knows he has no chance
I thought BJ like nick?
they were about to make out? LOL
Penn is going to get beat so hard he thinks he's fighting 3 GSP's. LOL

Remy Absalon, a member of the Commencal team, is an extremely talented enduro racer with a long list of accomplishments to his name, including four European DH marathon titles, and a victory at the Open Enduro Crankworx in Whistler. He has also had continued success in Megavalanche races, with four victories in la Reunion and three victories at Alpe d'Huez. In 2013 he took part in the inaugural Enduro World Series, with remarkably consistent results throughout the year. His best finish came in the third round at Les 2 Alpes, where he came fourth, and over the first six races he only once finished outside the top ten. With one race to go in the series, he is currently in fifth place overall. Remy grew up riding bikes with his brother Julien in the Vosges department of north eastern France. Julien went on to become a top professional cross country mountain biker, but DH marathon was Remy's chosen path. His big breakthrough came in 2004, when he gave everything to beat the legendary Alex Balaud and secure his first European title. Nine years later, and Remy is still a top contender in every enduro race that he enters, mixing it up with the likes of Nico Vouilloz, Fabien Barel and Jerome Clementz for the podium places. His experience and ability to manage mechanical uncertainties on demanding ground will mean he is surely a contender for the top spot at the second edition of the Enduro World Series in 2014.

Select Route:
Start on a hollow sidepull flake. Reach up to an undercling crimp in the roof above your head, a jug, a long move, and a hard bump get you to the key hold. Tension and good footwork get you to the jugs. Keep calm because the jugs get smaller at the top.
About 20 feet left of Storm Pockets on the Storm Boulder. Starts on the hollow flake below a little roof.
A couple pads and at least two competent spotters. The landing is good, but the topout is heady.

MLB Network is finally getting around to the Atlanta Braves, and will feature the hometown club tonight on their latest installment of 30 Clubs in 30 Days. Hosted by Greg Amsinger with Harold Reynolds, John Smoltz and John Hart, the hour-long episode features analysis, interviews and a hitting demo with Chipper Jones. Smoltz also goes one-on-one with Tim Hudson and Jair Jurrjens about coming back from their injuries. The Braves episode premiers tonight at 11pm. It also re-airs tomorrow at 6am, 12pm, 2pm and throughout the upcoming week.
MLB Network provided me with some quotes from tonight's episode:
Harold Reynolds on the Braves chances in the NL East:
"I think the Braves are going to win the East. They're going to shock everybody…The youngsters have matured and I think Chipper [Jones] is going to lead them back to the Postseason. I think they win the East. Their bullpen's lights out. That's where the game is played now. You got young guys coming on."
Harold Reynolds on Chipper Jones' future:
"They're gonna get in and they're going to make a great run. I think this is it for Chipper."
John Hart on Andrelton Simmons:
"This is the Braves' shortstop of the future. I think Simmons has the bigger defensive upside and I think, as it goes along, this is the guy that is eventually going to be their Major League shortstop."
Harold Reynolds on Jason Heyward:
"Watching him this spring, he's back…I really think he's back to the form we saw his rookie year and even getting better. Sometimes you have to go through a little bit of a struggle to realize how good a player you are and understand yourself."
Fredi Gonzalez on the way the 2011 season ended:
"I was prepared to address the way it ended. All these guys, every position player we had, they were here about five, six days earlier than they should have been. They were working out. We had pitchers and catchers going on the back field and we had to bring coaches up to the main field to work out all the guys that were here. For me, they were telling me that the 2011 season was behind them and we were ready to go forward with the 2012 season."
Much more after the jump...
Fredi Gonzalez on Tyler Pastornicky:
"We're giving him every opportunity in the world to make our club and he's showing us at times that he can really play shortstop and give us offensive production off the shortstop position. This kid, [Andrelton] Simmons, is doing a pretty good job, also. We play him every other day and he's doing a terrific job defending. That's going to be one of those meetings with the manager and the coaching staff at the end of Spring Training, sit down and see who goes north with us. Those are good meetings because really you don't want one guy just to go out and win the position because that makes it easy on us. Those hard meetings that last [until] the middle of the night making a decision on who goes and comes with us are always good."
Jason Heyward on how this team can make the Postseason:
"We've gotta be healthy, man. We've gotta be healthy. It's tough when you have young guys come up in the end of the season, September, and try and ask them, 'Hey, let's go start against the Halladays, the Hamels and everybody else in the National League East and put up some big W's for a team that's very young in that aspect.' But, I think healthy is the biggest part for us."
Chipper Jones on the team's youth:
"We gotta get young guys like Jason Heyward back in the swing of things. I think Freddie Freeman is going to take his next step towards stardom. We got a couple of young shortstops coming up that are very good in Tyler Pastornicky and Andrelton Simmons. The future looks bright. I just hope that I'm here to reap the benefits.
Chipper Jones on the strength of the team:
"The strength of our ballclub is our bullpen. The three guys down there at the end of the bullpen, (Eric) O'Flaherty, (Jonny) Venters and (Craig) Kimbrel, we can make it a six-inning game with the best of them. A lot of the good teams in the past, those great teams of the Yankees, they made it a six, seven inning ball game, and we have the ability to do that."
Brian McCann on the team's mentality this year:
"Just turn the page. We got a whole new team here. Everyone is getting a year of experience, our young guys. Guys like myself are getting a year more into their prime. We got a great mix, so we feel really excited about the team we have. We like our pitching and our lineup can do some damage."
