The Cost/Benefit Analysis Of A College Degree In One ChartSubmitted by Tyler Durden on 06/29/2014 22:25 -0400
For all the debate about a college education, its opportunity cost, the trade off of only having a high-school diploma, the impact of a record amount of debt on an entire generation's spending habits, and, of course, the alleged lack of inflation everywhere expect in those critical things that 99% of Americans must spend on daily, perhaps the simplest chart is the following, courtesy of the WSJ: it shows the average annual tuition - call it the "upfront investment", whether funded by debt or equity or both - for both a Bachelor's and an Associate's degrees from 1970 until 2013, as well as the average wages of those with each type of degree, once again expressed in real dollars.

ISIS Declares A Caliphate; Crucifies 9 Syrian Rebels For Being "Too Moderate"Submitted by Tyler Durden on 06/29/2014 18:08 -0400
Erstwhile leader of ISIS, Sheikh Abu Bakr Al-Baghdadi has declared himself Caliphate, Amir Al-Mu'minin - Leader of Believers, as militants bear down on Baghdad. This comes as the extremist group demands that all Al-Qaeda and Jihadi branches must now pledge allegiance to ISIS.. if not there are consequences as nine rebels have been crucified for being too 'moderate' or accused of receiving support from Western powers. We suspect this may slow 'demand' for Obama's latest cunning plan to offer 'aid' to only "moderate" terrorists.

BIS Slams "Market Euphoria", Finds "Puzzling Disconnect" Between Economy And MarketSubmitted by Tyler Durden on 06/29/2014 22:03 -0400
"... it is hard to avoid the sense of a puzzling disconnect between the markets' buoyancy and underlying economic developments globally.... Never before have central banks tried to push so hard... Few are ready to curb financial booms that make everyone feel illusively richer. Or to hold back on quick fixes for output slowdowns, even if such measures threaten to add fuel to unsustainable financial booms.... The temptation to go for shortcuts is simply too strong, even if these shortcuts lead nowhere in the end."

USDJPY Nears 2014 Lows As Goldman Warns Economic "Downside Risks Are High"Submitted by Tyler Durden on 06/29/2014 21:54 -0400
Hot on the heels of last week's dismal Japanese data, tonight's Industrial Production data missed rather dramatically as once again the hockey-stick'ers of hope rebound from last month's post-tax-hike plunge did not appear. USDJPY is still fading (4th day in a row), as Goldman concludes rather ominously (having folded like a lawn-chair on their J-Curve exuberance), the post-tax-hike correction is larger than the government and the market anticipated, and in view of our outlook for a slump in real wages and a resultant delayed recovery in domestic demand, we look to external demand to drive economic growth in FY2014. However, we highlight risk factors in the form of protracted weakness in China and other Asian economies and a decline in corporate Japan's structural export capacity. Sadly for the hopers, hard data continues to miss both the production survey forecast and consensus.

Goldman Warns Political Risks Are Set To SurgeSubmitted by Tyler Durden on 06/29/2014 20:52 -0400
Yesterday we hinted at the one 'uncertainty' that was anything but at record-lows; and it seems Goldman Sachs (who recently opined on what's at stake in the Midterms) agrees that after a period of relative calm, the US political environment looks likely to become more uncertain again. Recent developments have raised the prospect of renewed political tensions this fall. While they suggest the chance of another government shutdown is not high, the political environment has changed enough that the deadlines are likely to create real uncertainty, and an agreement may be reached only at the last minute. Crucially, if Republicans succeed in capturing the majority in the Senate following the November midterm elections, the routine around fiscal deadlines that markets have become accustomed to over the last few years may become more unpredictable (and may spill over into another debt limit debacle).

BofA Fears The End Of 'The Japan Trade'Submitted by Tyler Durden on 06/29/2014 20:05 -0400
"The Japan Trade is in trouble," warns BofA's Macneil Curry (and rightly so after this week's utter collapse in Japanese data and Abe's soaring disapproval rating). Over the course of the past week both USDJPY and the Nikkei have broken key technical levels which point to further substantial downside in the weeks ahead.

IcaCap: Is Earth Round Or Flat?Submitted by Tyler Durden on 06/29/2014 18:34 -0400
It's become rather obvious that current stimulus plans are not working. Rather than scrap the madness and start over, our world political and economic leaders insist on a rather bizarre analysis that what they are doing is actually correct. But the reason for its ineffectiveness is that they haven't done enough of it. In other words, yes the central banks and governments of the world have certainly dug themselves into a pretty deep hole. Yet, instead of trying to climb out or shout for help, they ask for more shovels – dig deeper! Many people have commented that all the world really needs is a little more confidence. Once people and companies become more comfortable they'll start to spend again. This view is 100% correct – but what's missing from this analysis is the reason confidence is declining. The reason for the decline is due to the very policy actions of our governments and central banks to help restore confidence. Their actions are actually causing people to have less confidence – talk about irony.

Martin Armstrong Warns Civil Unrest Is Rising Everywhere: "This Won't End Pretty"Submitted by Tyler Durden on 06/29/2014 16:40 -0400
The greatest problem we have is misinformation. People simply do not comprehend why and how the economic policies of the post-war era are imploding. This whole agenda of socialism has sold a Utopian idea that the State is there for the people yet it is run by lawyers following their own self-interest. Even confiscating all the wealth of the so-called rich will not sustain the system. Consequently, we just have to crash and burn and start all over again.

Axel Merk: The Fed's Next Move? "If You're Not Concerned, You're Not Paying Attention"Submitted by Tyler Durden on 06/29/2014 17:45 -0400
"If you're not concerned, you're not paying attention" say Axel Merk, founder and Chief Investment Officer of Merk Funds (and former President of the Federal Reserve Bank of St Louis and a former FOMC member). Like many, he sees today's excessive high-price, low-volume, zero-volatility markets as an unnatural and dangerous result of misguided intervention by the Federal Reserve... "Now, the capital base and the equity of the Fed is very small. Odds are that the losses would wipe out the equity at the Fed."

The Delusion Of Perpetual Motion; Bob Shiller Warns "I'm Definitely Concerned"Submitted by Tyler Durden on 06/29/2014 16:01 -0400
"I am definitely concerned. When was [the cyclically adjusted P/E ratio or CAPE] higher than it is now? I can tell you: 1929, 2000 and 2007;" warned Bob Shiller this week, adding that "it's likely to turn down again, just like it did the last two times." As John Hussman reminds us this week, stock valuations now reflect not only the absence of any interest-competitive component of expected returns, but the absence of any expected compensation for the greater risk of stocks, which is not insignificant – as investors might remember from 2000-2002 and 2007-2009 plunges, despite aggressive easing by the Federal Reserve throughout both episodes. Investment decisions driven primarily by the question "What other choice do I have?" are likely to prove regrettable.

The Great War's Aftermath: Keynesianism, Monetary Central Planning & The Permanent Warfare StateSubmitted by Tyler Durden on 06/29/2014 11:27 -0400
The Great Depression did not represent the failure of capitalism or some inherent suicidal tendency of the free market to plunge into cyclical depression - absent the constant ministrations of the state through monetary, fiscal, tax and regulatory interventions. Instead, the Great Depression was a unique historical occurrence - the delayed consequence of the monumental folly of the Great War, abetted by the financial deformations spawned by modern central banking. But ironically, the "failure of capitalism" explanation of the Great Depression is exactly what enabled the Warfare State to thrive and dominate the rest of the 20th century because it gave birth to what have become its twin handmaidens - Keynesian economics and monetary central planning. Together, these two doctrines eroded and eventually destroyed the great policy barrier - that is, the old-time religion of balanced budgets - that had kept America a relatively peaceful Republic until 1914. The good Ben (Franklin that is) said," Sir you have a Republic if you can keep it". We apparently haven't.

This is how a book should be written AND narrated - perfect in every way. Brilliant, this was definitely the best yet - if you have missed this series then get downloading - you won't be sorry. Curve ball after curve ball is thrown into the storyline.
I'm sad that I've finished it - but I can finally get my life back because I couldn't stop listening to it but, if you happen to read this JRW, then just give me a couple of weeks to get my housework done - then I'm all yours again and ready for the next installment.
Worth a credit? Oh yea - don't tell Audible but I'd spend 2, 3 or 4 (yea I'm that sad!!)
Lucian is sexy, rich, gorgeous, successful, a womaniser and has a heartbreaking past because the love of his life, Darcy, devastated his life when they were in their teens. Now decades later, she's trying to make amends and hoping for more but he just wants revenge….. that is until he sees her.
First there's angst, then the chemistry kicks in between them, followed by forgiveness, sex, understanding, character development and finally a deep love. But along the way are terrible heartbreaking secrets, treachery, murder, plot twists, Ember and Trace's tearful sub story that has some trauma filled parts, shocks and surprises and lots of secondary characters. The romance built at a nice pace and then together they faced all the unfolding never ending dramas.
Best listened to after Book 1.
Worth a credit? It was a well written and enjoyable bitter-sweet love story that kept my attention as I was happily entertained for nearly 10 hours and it was only $7.34, yes $7.34… what a bargain so no need to spend those precious credits (but if I had then I would still be one happy listener).
What a great ending to Connor and Ellery's story. There's angst, lots of dramas, great characters, good narration, very romantic, a super sexy drool-worthy perfect Hero and a very enjoyable and emotional love story that spanned years.
Worth a credit? I was very sad to say farewell to all the characters within this series, I shall miss them all, and YES very creditworthy.
Same story told from Connor's POV then with the additional Chapters on the Wedding, pregnancy and new house etc., which were all lovely and very romantic.
But I still found little bits of info missing like there was a real build up that Connor was to choose the song for their first dance at the wedding and she cried when the first notes played.... but it would have been nice to actually have given a song title for the listener to romanticise over the scene better.
Great male narration.
Worth a credit? Although you knew what was going to happen it was still very informative to listen to Connor's side of the story which has made him an even greater Hero in my eyes and YES a lovely, annoying, frustrating, beautiful and creditworthy addition to my ever growing library.
I see that this book has very mixed reviews so I guess it's not for everyone but I really enjoyed it. Right from the start it drew me in with it's secrets, it's twists, it's damaged characters, it's heartache and it's bitter-sweet love story.
I loved the sexy misunderstood drool-worthy Hero Connor once he opened up and the feisty, funny Heroine Ellery however she did sometimes annoy me with her quick to judge attitude later in the story. There was fun, intrigue, character growth, mild sex and some really touching scenes as they both began to open up and accept each other and let trust and love in.
Worth the credit? It was a bit 'choppy' in places, the friend's voice was too high and there was a few things that weren't explained but I easily overlooked them as I was enjoying the listen so much.... so YES another creditworthy listen.
This is one sugary sweet, romantic and sigh-worthy listen and, as Ella and Porter's love story unfolded, I was drawn into their passion, desires, tender love scenes and the painful dilemma that these two loveable characters faced.
But what I wasn't prepared for was the shocking events that this author had lying waiting for the happy unsuspecting listener in the last few chapters which were dramatic, raw, heart wrenching and all my WTF's, OMG's and tears couldn't take away the heartache of this torturous CLIFFHANGER ending. I only hope Audible can follow up with book two very very very very quickly.
Worth a credit? Loveable H/H and secondary characters, some angst, sex, drama, a bitter ex and, of course the cliffhanger, makes this a very creditworthy listen. But if you're not a fan of the fast 'instant love' plot or one that's filled with sweet sentiments, tender gestures and a very romantic story then maybe pass on this one.
As this started I really didn't think I was going to like it as the sexy Navy Seal Hero Maverick was an arrogant ass... ok he had good reasons as he was gorgeous, fit, had an eight pack and dimples but his personality sucked. He was arrogant, crude, had a really bad attitude towards women and was a real man-whore with all willing female partners. That is until the down-to-earth feisty Heroine Windsor didn't fall for his many charms and so his challenge began.
But, Maverick's caring side soon came out as Windsor's kind nature slowly made him rethink his game, thankfully he underwent great character growth and they both came from troubled families so they had a lot in common apart from their sizzling attraction for each other. However, Windsor's denial of her true feeling was going to have a devastating impact on so many lives.
This book packed so much in, there was the roller-coaster of emotions that the entertaining romance between Maverick and Windsor stirred up, passion and plenty of sex scenes, some likeable secondary characters, secrets, a shocking and tear jerking OMG fatality, twists, suspense and plenty of heartache as well as some really romantic moments. In the end, love and time played their part enabling Maverick to overcome his demons so he and Windsor could get their much deserved HEA ending.
Worth a credit? I really enjoyed this listen so it's a YES and if there's a continuation into a full on series then they'll be an auto buy for me. Narration was good too.
What a great start to a whole new Vampire world where they, and Werewolves, walk freely amongst us humans. New myths, cultures, lores, creatures and amazing characters are slowly unfolded as the story and romance nicely progresses.
Handsome, sexy, drool-worthy Angel, ahhh, Angel he's a Rock God and, along with his fellow Band members, are all Vampires but there's no groupies or darkness they all just seem pretty normal (with a few quirks) and he is also California's Clan Leader over the Vampires. Brea is a feisty when angry redheaded Waitress who fears the paranormals but when she's about to take Angel's order one night and their eyes lock it's the start of something life altering for both of them. Delicious scenes unfold as Angel proves his weakness for Brea.
Great romance, sex, an evil villain or two who want Angel's job, a Vampire serial murderer, thrills, intrigue, suspense, fights, funny bits and some interesting, loveable and amusing secondary characters all get tossed into this enjoyable listen. Narrator's voice for Angel's character was just so sexy.
Worth a credit? I thought I had become a bit tired of Vampire romances..... but, after this, I was very wrong so DJ please keep em coming and YES creditworthy and a 'lighter' side to Vamps.
This is a light, fairly fluffy Contemporary romance about 6 Billionaires who have formed a Secret Society to help in their business ventures and to meet to play Poker. However, the single members are now dwindling and this story is about the 4th Billionaire to eventually give in to love's pull.
Griffin is a snobby jerk who is treated like a King and is a member of royalty back in his home country and that's where he's headed but he needs a temporary Assistant. Maylee is a no-nonsence down-to-earth hillbilly type and, at first Griffin hates everything about her. But slowly, as he gets to know her…. well you know what's gonna happen and the simmering attraction finally (and eventually) led to a few sex scenes and a romance. Narration was slow and I didn't like Griffin's upper crust accent.
Worth a credit? This is the first one of the series that I couldn't connect to the characters or believe in their romance. Yes it was funny and Maylee was likeable but Griffin's character growth never happened until near the end and the sex was blah so for those reasons I would have to say not worth my credit but if you're in the mood for a Contemporary, fun, unbelievable plot, or if you're following the series, then go for it. They could all be stand-alone listens.
After JEM's This Man trilogy I thought we'd seen the best of her imaginative, emotion filled, erotic and twisted love stories but this, phew, this was a very highly charged ride through the attraction and passion of two mentally tortured people's lives and the people who surround them. And, as their lives both inevitably entwine, the listener is gifted with troubled waters of secrets, insecurities, drama, obsession, heartache, more secrets, revelations, suspense and lots and lots of intrigue.
No words can describe just how emotional this book is as it's flawed characters are loveable in their own way and very needy of each other but the many twists that fate deals them can result in only one thing..... DEVASTATION. And that's how I felt at the end of the raw bitter cliffhanger, an open mouthed shocked gasp as yet another twist was oh so cleverly tossed in.
Worth the credit? I am writing this Review knowing I'm going to be late for a shopping trip with a friend but I just had to get my words and feelings out about this listen whose character's lives has only let me get about 2 hours sleep because I didn't want to stop the intense mystery with a destination unknown, damaged characters and a deep unhealthy, yet compelling, love story. I would have gladly used two credits on this listen, so YES very creditworthy and, if book 2 is out in print, I'm even considering READING, yes actually reading it, because the storyline and characters are just that gripping. If you get this listen be prepared to become a Malpas groupie and what a great team she, and Edita Brychta made.
What I was expecting was a MC badass biker gang, hot sex, old ladies, patches and some hot Alpha type guys. However, what I got was mainly a Murder/Mystery with a Hero who had once formed an easy going innocent Biker Club (now disbanded) with friends when they were all much younger. Now he's sure one of those friends had just been murdered.
Vince is a tattooed, sexy, drool-worthy hard-ass Alpha type who's been in trouble before, he's got a dirty mind and a mouth to match it and he's got quick and snappy dialogue too and when he sees Kim he knows he wants her in the worst (or best) way. He denied the romance but was all in for the desire and sex but it was interwoven with the main plot line of murders, cover-ups, mystery, suspense, with paranormal visions, a few hot sex scenes, some interesting secondary characters and eventually the I love you's happened but I just didn't feel any romance.
Narrator had a very gravelly voice like he'd smoked 40 a day so his female voices suffered for it.
Worth a credit? This had a bit too much murder/mystery to the plot than I personally like and the plot line doesn't conclude but will continue in further books but I don't think I'll be following this series, not because it's not good, but because it just doesn't 'fit' with my own personal romantic taste.

Dara Sutton says she wants to inspire others to pick up trash if they see it."We walked from about a fourth of a mile today and we've each picked up three bags of trash just on one side," said volunteer Dara Sutton. "It's really getting out of hand. We just wanted to do something good and be a part of the solution instead of the problem in this world."The group plans to continue picking up trash on lunch breaks at least once a week.

COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) -- Voter advocates urged state lawmakers on Thursday not to change the swing state's election law before November, even as a state senator said he wants to tweak the law to help disabled and early voters cast their ballots.
"It's enough already," said Carrie Davis, executive director of the League of Women Voters of Ohio. "This constant round of election changes in the midst of a presidential election cycle causes too much confusion. They need to stop."
Davis' group along with the Ohio chapter of Common Cause and others held a news conference Thursday to also call on the Republican-led Legislature not to move forward with passing a repeal of an elections bill that makes sweeping revisions to the law.
The GOP-backed bill would get rid of the elections overhaul measure that passed the General Assembly last summer. The overhaul bill has been on hold since September, when opponents gathered the thousands of signatures needed to ask voters whether it should be tossed.
The Senate passed the repeal bill last month, and hearings in the House could start as soon as next week.
The groups contend the time for state lawmakers to weigh in has already passed, and voters should have the chance to say whether the overhaul bill should be scrapped. They also argue that no additional changes should be made until next year.
But State Sen. Bill Coley said Thursday he plans to introduce a bill next week that would make "non-controversial" changes to the election law, such as ensuring disabled voters are given enough time to vote on Election Day. He said he also wants to make clear that Ohioans casting early, in-person absentee ballots can vote if they are standing in line when their polling place closes.
Coley, a Middletown Republican, said he is currently discussing his proposal with the GOP Senate leadership.
"I think this is pretty much common sense stuff," Coley said in an interview Thursday. "I just want a clean, straightforward bill."
The groups said they had heard Coley was introducing legislation, but they said they were not aware of what was in the proposal.
Sam Gresham of Common Cause said he was skeptical of any election bill ahead of the November election.
"It's been our experience that once you open up Pandora's box, what was started as an innocent change presents an opportunity to do some things that will confuse the process," he said.

Please enjoy looking at the photos from my first photo book, Rocky Mountain Sunsets.
I selected these vibrant and colorful views of the Colorado Front Range. The photos were taken in 2007 and 2008, in and around the city of Longmont. Often during the evening hours, I photographed at McIntosh Lake for the unobstructed skies above Longs Peak. This must be the way to heaven, being one of the most interesting places I have experienced on earth.

Updated 10:20 p.m. ET, Sunday, July 31
Our Niners sources weren't about to get up in arms when RB Frank Gore made it known just before the opening of training camp that he was planning on staging a contract holdout. "I don't see him holding out too long," said one team insider. "He just loves the game too much." Our source apparently was right on the money, as head coach Jim Harbaugh revealed Sunday evening (July 31) that Gore would be ending his brief hiatus. But with Panthers RB DeAngelo Williams re-upping to the tune of $43 million (including $21 million guaranteed), we hear Gore — who is being paid $4.9 million (counting bonuses) entering the final year of his contract — still believes the time is right for a sizable raise. "I think he sees the team giving (QB) Alex Smith $5 million for one year and has to be thinking, 'They want me to be the centerpiece, and I'm making less than Alex Smith?' " the insider said.
Harbaugh, who has earned strong early reviews for being a straight shooter with his players, is apparently sensitive to Gore's contract wishes, telling CSNBayArea.com's Matt Maiocco, "We'll earnestly look at that in terms of extending him."

A: Clear orange with two finger head. Lots and lots of lacing and good retention.
S: Hops hops hops.
T: Grapefruit, citrous, pine-y bitterness. This is the best tasting IPA from Fremont, imo. Very hoppy. Love citra hops.
M: Good amount of carbonation, dry finish.
O: This one is awesome. Kind of pricey though.

Hated 22oz bottle into 10oz goblet. Poured an extremely attractive orange-amber color with an inch of white head that had very good retention and lacing.
The aroma was very good, a bold hop scent featured pine and citrus on a foundation of grain and malt. The flavors were the same, just notably brighter and bolder. The beer drank cleanly and the tasty hops lingering nicely.
The body was very good, fuller than typical, but not heavy or thick. The beer was crisp and clean with a dry finish. Drinkability was excellent, the 22 disappeared too quickly, another reason why why this should be in 12oz six-packs, I probably would have drank a whole sixer. Overall, an excellent brew. A must try if you see it and certainly worth setting up a trade for. A great beer, congratulation Fremont!

Pours hazy light orange with a big sticky off-white head leaving spotty lacing.
Lots of big tropical fruit aromas along with a little hint of candied grapefruit. Hop forward, but malt is still present. A little dank as well.
Flavor profile is a bit different than the aroma. The tropical fruit flavors are a bit more subtle. Strong citrus, especially grapefruit pith hits up front. A touch of malt for balance before finishing resiny and dry along with more bitter grapefruit.
Carbonation levels are good, but the body seems a touch thin. Maybe just a bit more malt would make this one perfect.
Pretty good beer for experiment #1. Didn't read the bottle until I had written the heart of my review, but you can't go wrong with Citra and Simcoe. Great flavors and aromas. Only thing that could use improvement is mouthfeel. Fantastic beer.

Bomber poured on 7/23/12.
Appearance: Pours a light orange with a big foamy head that receded quickly. Spotty lacing around the glass.
Smell: Citrus hops dominate the nose with an herbal/grassy scent too. Really lively citrus notes.
Taste: Follows the nose with a citrus hop sweetness that is not overwhelming. Light malts balance the hops, although this isn't a palate wrecker at all. Mild bitterness to the finish.
Mouthfeel: Fairly light-bodied for the style with average carbonation. Drinkability is a highlight.
Overall: I tend to like anything with citra hops, and this is another great example of an IPA that is flavorful and hoppy without being overwhelming. Definitely will drink this again.

4.13/5 rDev +2.5%
Pours a sunny pale orange color, with a bright white head, nice lace. Aroma is big floral hops, citrus, and a bitter astringency. Bits of malt sweetness comes through. Taste is nice juicy citrus, flowers and grass, subtle but consistent bitterness, with a light bready malt backbone.
The feel has a cream quality, mild crisp carbonation, and a lighter body that works quite well.
Overall, this is a quite nice, well put-together IPA. Great drinkability.

Huge thanks to ArchEnemyBrew for sending this beer my way! Thanks Hollis!
reviewed from notes 7/15/12.
22oz bottle poured into a tulip glass.
Appearance: Fairly standard looking IPA. A pale golden orangish bodied beer with a solid 2 fingers of white head on the beer. Leaves a decent lace behind on the glass.
Smell: Really big citrus notes of lemons, oranges, and grapefruit. Its also got mild fruity notes peaches and pineapples. Its got a bit of grassiness and pine in there too, but they play a minor role compaired to the crazy citrusy / fruity hops notes coming off this beer. Smell rediculous!
Taste: The beer is moderately bitter during the first few sips and just kind of settles in as a smooth mild hop bitterness through out drinking the rest of the beer. Citrus hops are the star just like in the nose! Oranges, lemons, and grassiness are big flavors in this beer. The pine and grapefruit seem to find themselves together, but are not adding very much of a bitter bite to the beer. Man this is seriously goood!
Mouthfeel: light bodied beer with moderate carbonation. Sooo drinkable. Carbonated perfectly. This is what makes the beer over the top.
Overall: This is one of my favorite IPA's! Its just a good as Blind Pig... Its not quite as bitter and even more flavorful; coupled with world class drinkablility. Fremont has some of the most drinkable and flavorful hoppy beer out there. Amazed! Fremont is just killing it! Its almost silly how great these fremont brews really are...

22oz bomber purchased at Bottles in Millwood, WA, for $4.99. No freshness date.
Poured an orange-amber color, with an off-white head of unremarkable size. There's a fair amount of chill-haze.
The nose of this beer is made up of citrusy hops.
Citrusy hops hit the taste buds first, with a more bitter hop flavor then kicking in. Not much malt flavor here, just barely being detectable in the background. Things end on a dry note.
While most of the flavor of this beer is hops, it's oddly enough not as hoppy as I would expect such a beer to taste. Perhaps the hops are already fading, or perhaps Citra and Simcoe hops aren't a flavorful as I thought they would be. Anyway, this is a decent but not terribly remarkable IPA from Fremont, who have done better with other IPAs.

22oz bottle poured into a large mug
Pours very slightly cloudy, very slightly coppy clear with a thin pale head and a fair amount of carbonation. Smell is delicious. Seriously delicious. Pungently sweet and flowery with a piney backbone.
Taste is a bit muted, but tasty. A lot of the sweetness and floweriness is lost or damped. I get a lot of hay maltiness.
Mouthfeel is light and smooth. Overall, this is a pretty good beer.

I can't begin to tell you how many times over the past several years I've wondered what it would be like if Eminem set up shop in the broadcast booth of a college football game, even if for just a few minutes at halftime.
Thankfully, my wondering — and that of most of North America, undoubtedly — is over.
During halftime of the Notre Dame-Michigan game, the rapper formerly/currently known as Marshall Mathers joined Brent Musburger and Kirk Herbstreit in the broadcast booth in what could only be described as the American version of a Dennis Rodman/Kim Jong-un sitdown. While Eminem was there to premier his new video for a song that will be used on Saturday Night Football, the discussion inevitably led to Musburger discussing NFL point spreads with Mr. Mathers and OMG I can now cross that off my bucket list and die happy.
For those who missed it, yes, it was as real and spectacular as it sounds. And, thanks to Land-Grant Holy Land, we have photographic proof of the historic development:
Suffice to say, Twitter exploded in a Miley-twerking kind of way. Below is but a small sampling of what was being said in the wake of the greatest thing that's ever happened in the history of 'Merica.
Need your help tweeps. Me & my wife are debating whether Eminem is truly stupid or just on something?—

We enjoyed the entertainment from the shows, to comedians. They did cater a little more to 65+ or so, which was nice in the fact that this was a trip for just my husband and I, without kids, and we didn't see too many. In other ways though, there was a lot of the entertainment geared for the older generation. You can do as much or as little as you want.
We thoroughly enjoyed the movies under the stars. Between that and taking many of our breakfast foods outdoors in the back area, we spent a lot of time outdoors.
I should mention that during the trip, there was an outbreak of the Norovirus! They promptly notified all the cruisers via a letter in each cabin saying that they have quarantined those affected and would take measures to ensure no more. That just meant really, that at all the buffet sites, all the food would be served to you. They really did a great job at taking precautionary measures.
We really had a great first time experience and would highly recommend the Ruby Princess.

A fond farewell for school caretaker after 34 years
Updated 11:48am Friday 28th February 2014 in News
STAFF and pupils at St Joseph's Primary School in Droitwich bid a fond farewell to their caretaker after 34 years of working at the school.
Geraldine Davies who started working at the school in 1980, received a treat from the children during a special assembly, in the form of a song written especially for her to the tune of 'Don't Stop Believing', called 'Don't Stop the Cleaning'.
Katherine Leech, year three teacher, said: "Geraldine became involved with the school when her son Ian started in reception class, and her daughter Debbie went to the school.
"She'll be greatly missed. Her bungalow was on site so even when she wasn't doing her work here she was still around, and her husband John did a lot around the school as well."
School staff arranged a farewell coffee morning for Mrs Davies, inviting former pupils and colleagues back to say their goodbyes, and presented her with cake and gifts.
Ms Leech added: "She'll be staying in the area, she'll still be in Droitwich, and her granddaughter comes to the school so hopefully we'll still see her."
Mrs Davies is planning to spend her retirement decorating her new home off the school campus, and spending time with her grandchildren.

Valiant for Truth - Reformed Scholasticism
WSC's latest faculty publication comes from Dr. Fesko, and is titled, The Theology of the Westminster Standards: Historical Context and Theological Insights.
Dr. Godfrey, President of WSC, has just had a book review of Jacob Arminius: Theologian of Grace (Oxford: OUP, 2012) by Keith Stanglin and Thomas McCall.
Office Hours talks with Dr. Kelly Kapic, Professor of Theological Studies at Covenant College, about John Owen and Christian spirituality.
One of the regular questions I receive is, What book would you recommend to study the history of covenant theology? Up until now there have been very few books that took a comprehensive survey of covenantal thought in Reformed theology in the 16th and 17th centuries. There have been some books on individual figures, which are certainly helpful, but nothing comprehensive.
Office Hours talks with Dr. J. V. Fesko, Academic Dean and Professor of Systematic Theology and Historical Theology, about his book Beyond Calvin: Union with Christ and Justification in Early Modern Reformed Theology (1517-1700).

No longer capable of remaining on the sidelines as a separate administrative domain, today's networked storage must be managed with a deeper awareness of business objectives.
But in an era of compliance, litigation, and highly interactive, data-dependent apps fine-tuned for maximum responsiveness, it takes more than a shift in philosophy to establish the kind of business-conscious storage environment that can deliver a true competitive advantage. It takes management tools born of the need to mitigate the downsides of the deluge of data today's enterprises face.
Enter data classification, CDP (continuous data protection), data deduplication, and tiered storage -- three recent advances and one revamped mainstay poised to hone your daily storage operations.
Seemingly unrelated, these four technologies share a common objective: alleviating the pain of enterprise data management.
Whether providing improved data protection, reducing required capacities, ensuring a more flexible infrastructure, or presenting deep insights into stored data content, they seek to better align the traditionally technical benchmarks of storage management -- capacity, performance, and so on -- with business-related metrics, such as relevance, integrity, and responsiveness. In so doing, they are fast becoming essential tools for enterprises looking to derive greater advantage from existing and future storage assets.
Data classification
The all-too-silent pink elephant in the room of storage management, data classification is finally receiving some much deserved attention from storage vendors. Compliance and e-discovery may be among the central motivating factors for this trend, but enterprises are fast finding data-level awareness of stored content to be an essential component of any comprehensive storage management strategy.
The rise of networked storage as a separate administrative domain has resulted in numerous benefits, including consolidated management and improved scalability. Yet this strategy has led enterprises to manage their storage containers without much understanding of the data content housed therein.
As a consequence, looking at data from the storage side rather than from the application front end is a lot like entering into a gigantic warehouse full of mysterious, cursorily labeled boxes. And when it comes to protecting data off premises or responding to requests from a judge or challenger in court, not to mention surfacing what your enterprise already knows, having precious information buried deep in storage silos can prove detrimental to your bottom line.
Making sense of what is stored in those mysterious boxes is the primary objective of data classification.
Chief among the benefits of data classification is the ability to allocate data to the appropriate storage tier. Compellent's Data Progression, for example, automatically classifies blocks of data according to criteria such as age and frequency of access, then pushes them to tiers accordingly. Data Progression has the unique capability of decoupling blocks from their file wrapper, but on any other storage system, administrators can combine analysis of standard file metadata -- name, file type, date created, and so on -- with simple classification criteria to identity files that need to move elsewhere.

The Pittsburgh Steelers will start Charlie Batch this Saturday as Ben Roethlisberger will rest his ankle for at least one week. Roethlisberger sat out practice on Wednesday and Thursday and the Steelers confirmed he will sit via a retweet of @SteelersDigest.
Roethlisberger suffered a high ankle sprain two weeks ago against the Cleveland Browns. He played on Monday Night Football against the San Francisco 49ers, but the Steelers quarterback was extremely limited in his movement and struggled in virtually ever facet of the game. If the Steelers lose this one and drop a game back of the Ravens, Roethlisberger could sit out until the first round of the playoffs.
Charlie Batch will make his first start of the season against a Rams defense that has been moderately solid against the pass. This creates a lot of question marks for the Steelers and also fantasy owners. It is tough to tell what kind of game plan the Steelers will implement with Batch getting the start. He has been taking most of the first team snaps the last two weeks and should have some manner of comfort with his receivers.

Highbridge celebrates old Somerset wassailing tradition
5:00pm Tuesday 14th January 2014 in News
A LARGE quantity of local cider was drunk as people gathered at a cider farm to ward off the evil spirits for the new year.
Nearly 300 people gathered at Rich's Cider Farm in Highbridge last Saturday to celebrate the traditional Somerset tradition of wassailing.
The Wassailing Princess was carried shoulder high on a sedan chair to the apple trees where she placed a slice of toast dipped in cider amongst the branches while shotguns were fired to ward off the evil spirits.
The event, which started at 7pm and lasted until late, raised £2,000 for B.U.S.T., the Breast Cancer Unit Support Trust.

CARY — Gov. Pat McCrory launched a teacher advisory group Tuesday that he charged with making recommendations on issues such as teacher pay, testing and technology.
At a meeting at the SAS campus in Cary, he asked the group to keep in mind the needs of businesses looking for educated workers.
This is an issue thats going to determine the future of our state and the future of our jobs, he said.
McCrory said improving education was not a Democratic or Republican issue, but public education has become a flashpoint for McCrory and the Republican legislature.
The first meeting of the advisory committee 24 K-12 teachers from across the state was held the day after teachers and parents around the state protested per-pupil spending that has fallen to near the bottom of national rankings and low teacher pay.
Even SAS CEO Jim Goodnight, in his short welcome to committee members, said he hoped the legislature will find some money to pay you a little bit more. Some of the salary data is not very good.
McCrory said later he agreed with Goodnight, saying he wants to determine the best method of compensating teachers.
Recent experience suggests politicians dont always follow teachers and administrators advice, even when its solicited.
This year, House Speaker Thom Tillis invited teachers and administrators to public meetings in the House chamber in February. Teachers talked about low morale, low pay and the importance of tenure. Superintendents urged legislators not to adopt a voucher program that gives parents taxpayer money to send their children to private schools.
A few months later, the state adopted a budget that included no raise for teachers, phased out teacher tenure, started a voucher program and ended salary supplements for teachers who earn advanced degrees.
McCrory has been dogged by those decisions. While McCrory told state business leaders of his proposals to ease the state testing regime and give 1,000 teachers $10,000 stipends by redirecting federal Race to the Top money a few months ago, teachers protested outside.
The teacher advisory committee is one of several sources to which McCrory is turning for ideas. He mentioned that hes talking to superintendents, and he has K-12, N.C. Pre-K, community college, UNC system, and independent college leaders working on joint proposals.
Eric Guckian, McCrorys senior education adviser, said the administration will consider all the recommendations as it develops a long-term plan for education.
Despite the public attention evidenced by more than a half-dozen news cameras, this is not a show, Guckian told the committee. I think we can all agree that were here for our students. We have to get it right for our state.

HATTIESBURG, Miss. - Many residents gathered today at the Veteran's Memorial Park to celebrate Veterans Day.
"I was involved in a plane crash and a man was killed standing beside me but the lord had other plans for me," said Robert Tims, a local veteran.
He said that's just one memory he has from being apart of the U.S. Air Force during the Vietnam War.
"I've seen a lot of action while I was in Vietnam," he said.
Tims is a part of the Veterans of Foreign Wars Post 3036 Honor Guard. The City presented them with the 2013 "Veteran of the Year Award".
Organizers say they hope this program reminds everyone of the sacrifices each day that soldiers make for our country.
"Freedom is not free," said Ted Tibbett, chairman of the Hattiesburg Area Veterans Committee. "We are able to do the things we do because of the sacrifices of so many veterans before us and even our military present."
"It's very dear to our hearts,"he said. "It's wonderful to have the day off to go shopping and cook out but the thing we want to do is honor all of our veterans."

Students better be prepared for another cold morning Friday. Dougherty County school officials are asking parents to make sure children are bundled up, because school will be open.
These students at Northside Elementary school have no problem getting their exercise indoors. And they don't have much of a choice.
Coach Nolan Spence says on cold days like this, P.E. is held inside. "If it's 40 degrees, 45 or so we probably keep them inside. Above 45, depends on if they have proper attire to go outside. Most of the time if it's 45 or so it would depend on the wind chill," said Spence.Dougherty County school officials are also monitoring the weather, but they say there's no magic temperature that would force them to close schools. "The Dougherty County school system doesn't have an official temperature at which we close schools. The superintendent makes that decision, based on advice from the emergency management agency and their leadership and it's all predicated by student safety and concerns for student and staff welfare," said R.D. Harter, the DCSS Spokesperson.A big concern is when students are waiting for the bus in freezing temperatures. School officials are asking parents to make sure children are bundled up. "We ask parents to hold the children there until they hear the bus coming or see the bus coming. We ask that they hold them in the house, keep them inside. We ask that they layer them in warm clothing, as warm as they have. And if they don't have enough then to let the principal or let the school people know and they'll try to contact an agency to help their children get some warm clothes," said Harter.And with more cold weather in the forecast the jackets and sweaters are here to stay.

That surprised me too.Delete
For a brief second I thought you were going to post about President U. Grant. Very nice post and who is this mysterious Sadie? I'm thinking we shall see more!ReplyDeleteReplies
HA -- yeah, you don't run across too many people today named Ulysses.Delete
I think the fact that she was 3 years older is cool...I am 1 year older than my husband....but in 1982 that was no big deal....way back it probably was.ReplyDelete

Chicago Sun Times Takes Low Road on Giffords Shooting
Leave it up to the Chicago Sun Times editorial page to take opportunistic privileges with the Arizona Shooting tragedy and post a shamefully rambling and incoherent smear against the right.
With the claim that "we cannot walk away from this one" the newspaper rails against the tone of America's political rhetoric, to end the fear-mongering and "quit the demonizing". And then in an incredibly inane example of ideological laziness the editorial demonizes "the right" for the tragic shooting.
The safe observation for us to make now — you will hear it from others all week — is that the angry and irresponsible talk that might lead an unhinged person to pick up a gun is common across the political landscape, from right to left.
But that simply is not true.
Overwhelmingly today, the fear-mongering and demonizing flow from the right, aided and abetted by cable TV and talk-radio hosts. They may represent only the irresponsible fringe of conservatism in America, but they are drowning out the thoughtful voices of the vast majority of conservatives.
Don't be fooled by the usage of the term thoughtful conservative. This is code for conservatives that agree with the left. The only kind of "thoughtful conservative" that liberally tainted newspapers care to reference are those that throw other conservatives under the bus. That is the only safe observation to make here.
The editorial does make one wonder how in the world the author missed any of the rhetoric coming out of the mouths of Keith Olbermann, Joy Behar, Bill Maher or a host of other left leaning talk show hosts that do nothing but fear monger and demonize.
The Sun Times once again demonstrates that the kicking of journalistic standards to the curbside is not beyond their strategy for recognition among one particular demographic. Why else pander to the left instead of doing something responsible like report on the the shooter and make a comment based on those findings?
Note to the Chicago Sun Times, although facts seem elusive to your editorial staff it might lend a modicum of credibility to the paper if they at least tried.
Many are reporting that Jared Lee Loughner was a loner that leaned left if anything. The Daily Caller reports that Loughner's You Tube page lists both the Communist Manifesto and Mein Kampf among his favorite books. A former friend of his labeled him as "left wing". Fox News reported that the DHS is looking into claims that he is associated with anti-Semetic hate groups. His alleged You Tube Page favorites a video burning the American Flag. To top it all off he appears to distrust religion. If none of this screams right-wing nut job you'd be correct.
Such reports tend to spoil an incoherent diatribe against the right. So the Sun Times editorial staff took the least common denominator, skipped the reports, appears to have gotten it completely wrong and blamed the right in lieu of any facts. I'd call this an accomplishment but there are too many examples of irresponsible babble from the nation's left leaning media types to consider this extraordinary. Shame on them.
This tragedy should not be used by the left to score baseless political points.

The responsibility for these murders falls squarely in the lap of that Ass Clown in our White House.

Further proof....
Submitted by HillbillyKing on Sun, 01/09/2011 - 7:56pm.
The narrative that this entire manufactured opinion onslaught is furthering is blatant proof of the nature of the mainstream media.
Imagine if they actually used reality based information for their stories, for instance if they used the information from the shooters book list on his youtube page:
I had favorite books: Animal Farm, Brave New World, The Wizard Of OZ, Aesop Fables, The Odyssey, Alice Adventures Into Wonderland, Fahrenheit 451, Peter Pan, To Kill A Mockingbird, We The Living, Phantom Toll Booth, One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest, Pulp,Through The Looking Glass, The Communist Manifesto, Siddhartha, The Old Man And The Sea, Gulliver's Travels, Mein Kampf, The Republic, and Meno.(e.m.)
Sadly, this will NEVER happen in the manufactured media establishment.
Thankfully this is the 21st century and there are multiple outlets available for information. Of course, we'll see just how long that lasts.
I never submitted the whole system of my opinions to the creed of any party of men whatever, in religion, in philosophy, in politics or in anything else, where I was capable of thinking for myself. -Thomas Jefferson

This cookie mix, when used as a base, can make excellent cookies! I typically add a little pudding and some chocolate chips and suddenly I have a brownie-like cookie that people love!
Shalane H. from Shalane Bakes Posted on 07/21/2014
This brand of cookie mix is great, I agree with the previous review that finding the right amount of water to add is an issue, my recipe is; 4 cups of mix, 1/2 cup water, 1 1/2 cups of chocolate chips. I just mix it lightly in a bowl and drop spoon it on a cookie sheet, bake at 350 degrees for about 10 min.
Sandra G. from Kim's Flavored Cream Cheese & Sweets Posted on 06/02/2014
Yes, this mix has good flavor. However the problem for me is the amount of water to add to mix on the instruction that is a little off. Once you get it right, these are fabulous cookies.
Yvonne G. Posted on 07/16/2013
This makes a nice soft slightly chewy chocolate cookie. It's wonderful if you dip half of it into melted peanut butter chips for an extra decadence.

Whenever I need cookies in a hurry, this is what I reach for. It actually makes baking easy and convenient, which is always great with me.

This mix is a breeze to use and very economical. The taste is a simple chocolate that would do well for sheet birthday cakes. One 5lb bag will make a generous full sheet and 1 6" round. Its a great choice for anyone that needs to bake a lot of cake inexpensively.

Love this cookie mix. Just add water and you have 100 great tasting cookies to serve. And since it comes with 6 bags the price is unbeatable.
