3.93/5 rDev +4.8%
Pours a crisp golden color with a little bit of head retention. Smell of hops permeates off of the glass, a welcome sign of a good IPA. Taste was a good amount of bitterness with what I think was a bit of floral accents. Mouthfeel wish medium-bodied. Drinkability was good, but a few too many of these and you're going to have trouble getting back into your car. Good example of an IPA with maybe a bit of a twist. Worth trying.

Great to try this brew from my old stomping grounds,poured a slight hazed peach-like color with a thinner but well sustained white head.Lighter aromas for such a big hopped up brew I picked up some citrus and tangerine aromas with a hint of caramel malt,very fresh tasting with a good hop punch but it leans in the fruit side of a flavor profile.Overripe peaches and tangerine flavors with a little citric sting overtop of sweet biscuit malt,it goes down way to easy for its listed ABV.A nice change of pace DIPA and dangerously drinkable.

Pours a dark amber-orange color with a quickly dispersing white head. The beer looks and pours quite thick. The aroma is very hoppy, full of citrus and pine. The first sip hits you with a pretty sharp bite - very warm and spicy. Big mix of peppercorns, spices, and heavy, dank, hop resin. Slight rubbing alcohol aroma comes out as the beer continues. Some sweeter malts come out at the finish along with more citrus, but the beer leaves a very bitter taste on the tongue. Medium carbonation, and a thick, gritty body.
Very harsh, even for a 9% ABV, the "alcohol" taste is too prominent. Very "spicy" and not so much smooth. Gets worse as the beer gets warmer. I was slightly disappointed in this one, I had much higher expectations. Not my tastes.

Poured a 12oz bottle into a Goose Island IPA glass.
Apperance- great, pale orange with a quarter inch off-white head.
Aroma- bursting with bright grapefruit and tropical fruit notes(pineapple,tangerine). Great showcase of American hops.
Taste- More of the same, with great citrus(think hopslam meets maharaja). Not a lot of malty notes but doesn't affect the balance.
Drinkability- The finish has a fair amount of bitterness from the hops and alcohol but remains quite drinkable. I could drink a few of these. It's underrated in my town.

12 ouncer, that came is a costly ($15 and change) FOUR pack! Shesh...this one poured semi cloudy dark honey/apricot amber, medium tan low lying head, leaving fine and scattered lacing. Fruity and pleasant hop filled nose. Full flavor brew, moderate under coat of sweet malt, dominated by a better then average hop assault. Grainy,resiny and at the same time flowery hop jolt quite evident and carry the freight here. Pleasant to my hop loving tastes. Nicely done, the only factor that will keep me from enjoying plenty more of this stuff is the price.

12 oz. bottle poured into a tulip glass. The beer is a cloudy amber color, but seems to clear up after a while. Sizable, bone-white head which fades pretty quickly. This brew leaves behind no shortage of beautiful lacing as you drink.
Nose does not disappoint the hoppy expectations. Strong influence of candied pineapple and citrus. To smell this beer is really a treat. No sign of alcohol, just sweet, delicious fruit.
There is a lot of hop flavor packed into this brew for sure. Pine resin up front; then apple and very sweet candied pineapple... for a second in the middle, you almost forget that you are drinking a beer. The fruit flavors just that powerful... but before you have time to make yourself at home, it punches you in the face with delicious bitterness again. The finish is crazy bitter and dry and stays on your tongue forever! In short, it's everything you would expect from a beer with a moniker like this. No sign of malt in the flavor. The extreme dryness and bitterness hurt the drinkability, but the mouthfeel is smooth and light, which helps it go down.
Can I be real for one second? I mean, really real? This might be the most bitter beer I've ever tasted. I actually love Arcadia's DIPAs. Hopmouth is also amazing...maybe a little better than this one. IMO, I think it's what they do best. I would have this beer again, but I don't know if I would necessarily seek it out. It's great if you're looking for a hop fix, though, that's for sure.

From bottle, has an area for date notching, but I guess the machine missed this one as nothing is marked.
Pour is dark golden orange, off white head forms and then quickly fizzles out. Appears a little flat, no lacing or carbonation bubbles.
I'm not liking the aromas on this one, pure skunk weed pureed with onions and booze. No citrus presence what so ever, really off putting.
As with the nose, literally tastes like I'm liking the side of a hill. Just overwhelming grass with overbearing alcohol presence on top of it. No balance what so ever, the malt backbone is completely missing in action, as is any lemon and grapefruit. Has a really unpleasant after taste that lingers around as well.
Pretty full bodied, but rather flat with a syrupy consistency. Just not an easy drinker.
I'm only three sips in but I don't think I'll be able to stomach this one, probably a drain pour. Maybe chalk it up to a bad bottle, but I don't think I'll ever trade for another one to really find out.

Pours a light orangey brown with about a half inch of head. The head dissapaes quickly leaving a light residue around the rim of the glass. The aroma us overwhelmingly hoppy with little else evident other than the nose smashing hoppiness. The taste is very boozey with a crude ultra-sweet taste that is quickly tossed to the rear by the massive hop bitterness. The initial sweetness is somewhat hard to get past and doesn't improve the beer at all. Some DIPA's are balanced, this seems like t tries to be more balanced, but instead has warrinf parts malt and hops.

A pure white head grows to a finger and a half over a cloudy, deep burnt orange-colored brew. It sits for awhile and settles to a heavy foam, leaving good lacing behind on the glass.
There's some fruitiness in the aroma, a fresh, raw hops bouquet offering citrus and herbal qualities as well as a leafiness. Malts are also evident, adding a bit of caramel. Alcohol sneaks in a bit and lingers. A bit of yeast, but not too much to be off-putting, is also detectable.
The flavor is where everything opens up. This is definitely a DIPA; not a tongue-numbing, overly abrasive one, but just as hoppy and flavorful as the great ones. Malts offer great support for excellent balance, offering some caramel sweetness while still allowing the hops to be showcased as the main feature. Lots of ripe fruits (apricot, etc.) come out under citrus and herbal flavors. A leafy greenness is also present through every sip. It's raw but refined, and fresh. There's something like spruce tips as well and just a touch of mint. Alcohol is evident without taking over or distracting. I would never suspect 9 %.This is a great beer.
The mouthfeel remains lively and active, opting for crispness but not denying a smooth flow.The body is medium. It leans dryer heading into the finish.

Arcadia- Hop Rocket
A- Hazy bright orange with a huge frothy head. Good messy lacing.
S- Light cremy caramel/ butter malt with a sweetened citrus aroma.
T- Creamy malt up front and center; hints of vanilla, caramel, and shortbread. Sugar sweetened citrus hops (grapefruit and nectarine) appear early but make up the back end.
M- Very thick and creamy with a touch of slick butter. Hops are sweetened and not bittering. Alc. makes this 1 warming but never overpowers. Very crisp feeling.
Overall- Sweet and easy to drink, but the flavors seem a bit subdued?!

12oz bottle, served in a standard pint glass.
A - pours with an inch of frothy very light tan colored foam, sitting atop a clear burnt golden liquid. minimal sticky lacing comes and goes throughout the drink.
S - tropical - mangos, pineapple, grapefruit...hops joined by a solid amount of sweet caramel malt.
T - very sweet, hops again come across in the citrus profile, some pine as well. solid amount of malt adds a lot of balance, almost a tad too much. still plenty bitter, just done with some grace and charm. just a barely noticeable alcohol burn as well.
M - very thick body, carbonation is subtle yet tight. very creamy and goes down smooth, leaves a lingering pine and caramel aftertaste.
D - very solid, though not quite as good as it was out of a cask. a stereotypical East Coast DIPA with a ton of malt to match the hops. pretty dangerous for the ABV, goes down easy.

By just looking at the bottle, even smelling and drinking this hoppy ale, you would think it is just a very nice IPA. Pacific Northwestern hops, nice mouthfeel. Golden amber with large white head and leaving lace lines. Well malted and fairly balanced for a DIPA.Alcohol warming. Premiere Gourmet.

The Big East should rejoice this week: for the first time in a month, a Big East team has cracked the USA Today poll.
That team would be West Virginia, ranked 24th in the USA Today coaches poll for Week 14. It's not much for a team that delivered a beatdown to Pittsburgh in the rivalry game called the Backyard Brawl — and even that win couldn't stop rumors from surfacing this weekend that had West Virginia coach Bill Stewart retiring — but it's more than the Big East has had of late.
West Virginia could still win the conference and claim the Big East's BCS bowl berth, but Connecticut is the squad that has the inside track to do so. And the Huskies don't even receive a vote in this week's USA Today poll; South Florida, which upset Miami in overtime, is the only Big East team other than West Virginia to receive even a single vote.
That leaves the Big East in familiar territory: hoping for one team to carry the banner as high as possible.
Full Big East rankings are as follows:
- No. 24 West Virginia

Anger,Hostility,and Violent Behavior - Home Treatment
If you are angry, hostile, or violent, it is important to find help. You can learn ways to control your feelings and actions. Contact the National Domestic Violence Hotline toll-free at 1-800-799-7233 or the National Department on Mental Health at 1-888-793-4357. These agencies can help you find the help you need.
You can control your feelings of anger or hostility and avoid violence.
- Think before you act. Take time to stop and cool down when you feel yourself becoming angry. Count to 10, or practice some other form of mental relaxation. When you have calmed down, you will be better able to deal with your conflict thoughtfully.
- Recognize feelings that often lead to angry outbursts. Do you have trouble dealing with feelings of sadness, confusion, or helplessness? Identify these feelings, and develop positive ways to express them.
- Come up with a reasonable explanation of why you are angry. If a person triggers your anger, suggest to yourself that perhaps the person is having a bad day.
- Avoid
situations that trigger your anger.
- If you have trouble coping with heavy traffic, try to adjust your work schedule so that you do not have to travel in peak traffic hours.
- Do errands at less-busy times if standing in line bothers you.
- Evaluate your lifestyle choices. Anger and hostility may be a symptom of unhappy feelings or depression about your job, your relationship, or other aspects of your personal life.
- Notice when you start to become
angry, and learn to express your feelings in a positive manner. Don't just
ignore your anger until you "blow up." Express anger in a healthy way:
- Give yourself a "time-out." Go someplace quiet to allow yourself time to calm down.
- Try screaming or yelling in a private place, not at other people.
- Go for a short walk or jog.
- Talk about your feelings with a friend. Avoid gossiping about the person you are upset with.
- Draw, paint, or listen to music to release the anger.
- Write in a daily journal.
- Develop assertive skills to replace your aggressive behavior. Use "I" statements, not "you" statements, to discuss your anger. Say "I don't feel valued when my needs are not being met" instead of "You make me mad when you are so inconsiderate."
- Listen to what the other person has to say. This can be hard. Try to understand his or her point of view. Seek to understand, then to be understood.
- Explore other resources
that may be available through your job or your community.
- Contact your human resources department at work to see whether you have services available through an employee assistance program.
- Contact your local hospital, mental health facility, or health department to see what types of programs or support groups are available in your area.
- Read books on anger and how to handle it.
- Forgive and forget. Forgiving helps lower blood pressure and ease muscle tension so you can feel more relaxed.
- Take care of
- Exercise regularly.
- Eat a balanced diet. Do not skip meals.
- Try to get 8 hours of sleep each night.
- Limit your use of alcohol, and do not use illegal drugs.
- Practice a relaxation technique such as yoga, meditation, or tai chi.
Symptoms to watch for during home treatment
Call your doctor to evaluate your feelings if your anger, hostility, or violent behavior becomes more frequent or severe.

Dr. Jerry A. Coyne is a Professor in the Department of Ecology and Evolution at the University of Chicago. He earned his Ph.D. in evolutionary biology at Harvard University in 1978, working in the laboratory of Richard Lewontin. He has written over 110 refereed scientific papers and 80 other articles, book reviews, and columns, as well as the books Why Evolution is True and Speciation (co-authored with H. Allen Orr).
I made a reply (on his blog) to a small portion of his online article, "What evidence would convince you that a god exists?" (7-7-10). Excerpts from his article appear below (indented), followed by my reply. Then I reply to a few parts of a second article that the first linked to. His words throughout will be in blue.
* * * * *
One of the big differences between religion and science as "ways of knowing" is that in science we can almost always specify what observations or experiments would prove our theories wrong. In contrast, the faithful do not (and cannot) specify what observations would disprove their beliefs—or the whole basis of their religion. There are two reasons for this distinction. First, through judicious theological manipulation the faithful carefully insulate those beliefs from disproof, often in a hypocritical way. When evidence is found against them, like the medieval age of the shroud of Turin or observations showing that prayer doesn't work, the faithful simply say, "No, you can't test God." . . .
Second, because religious belief is irrational, the faithful often won't let themselves even consider counterevidence. The evidence for evolution is by now overwhelming (I wrote a book about it, and didn't even scratch the surface), but still around 60% of Americans think that humans were created by God directly instead of having evolved—and a lot of the latter believe that our evolution was guided by God. Faith has immunized these people against the plain facts. . . .
But we atheists, being scientifically inclined, can do the converse: we can lay out what observations would turn us into believers. . . .
This is a challenge to those believers who say that their way of knowing is equivalent to that practiced by science and rational investigation.
because religious belief is irrational, the faithful often won't let themselves even consider counterevidence.
Circular argument. The conclusion is already in the premise.
Isn't it interesting that you think that even theistic evolutionists are included in the class of those who are "against the plain facts." This is classic atheist dogmatism. It's not enough that a person accepts evolution itself. He must also deny that God had anything to do with it in order to be pronounced kosher and orthodox and to get the Good Housekeeping seal of approval pasted on his forehead.
No one may dare harmonize evolution with his religious beliefs, and believe that God guided the process (a position that Darwin and his original public defender T. H. Huxley thought were perfectly acceptable).
No, you have to take it a step further. The logic of your position and the grammar of the above statement prove that you think that evolution precludes any talk of God or theistic evolution. Yet that is the very thing you can't assert, by your own excessive "scientism" -- because science can say nothing about God, by the simple fact that its purview is matter (and it often prides itself on precluding any talk of God or teleology).
Even if science now bans God totally from any and all discussion about the universe, it can't ban all other intelligent discussion or beliefs about God in philosophy and theology. Science is not the sum of all knowledge.
If you want religious people to "shut up" and never let their religious views influence science to the slightest degree (even to the extent of excommunicating theistic evolutionists), then it seems to me that you should -- by the same token - shut up about religious matters, and not pretentiously pose as an objective observer, all the while engaging in massive self-contradiction insofar as you speak from a "scientific" point of view that has nothing directly to do with religious matters or God. But you want it both ways.
It is shoddy thinking like this that is deplorable. Bad logic is bad logic, no matter what the source is or how otherwise "smart" the one committing the error may be.
* * *
Would that it were that easy! True, there are religious scientists and Darwinian churchgoers. But this does not mean that faith and science are compatible, except in the trivial sense that both attitudes can be simultaneously embraced by a single human mind. (It is like saying that marriage and adultery are compatible because some married people are adulterers. )
Science and religion address separate aspects of human experience. Many scientists have written eloquently about how their scientific studies of biological evolution have enhanced rather than lessened their religious faith. And many religious people and denominations accept the scientific evidence for evolution.
Coyne's is an extreme position indeed (but that makes it fun to deal with). As he himself notes, even "America's most prestigious scientific body" roundly disagrees with it. But that is of no concern to Dr. Coyne. For him, militant atheism is THE DOGMATIC TRVTH.
Miller equates the faith of religious believers with physicists' "faith" in a naturalistic explanation for physical laws:
Believers ... are right to remind skeptics and agnostics that one of their favored explanations for the nature of our existence involves an element of the imagination as wild as any tale in a sacred book: namely, the existence of countless parallel simultaneous universes with which we can never communicate and whose existence we cannot even test. Such belief also requires an extraordinary level of "faith" and the nonreligious would do well to admit as much.
Well, physicists are not ready to admit as much. Contrary to Miller's claim, the existence of multiverses does not require a leap of faith nearly as large as that of imagining a God. . . . it is simply wrong to claim that proposing a provisional and testable scientific hypothesis--not a "belief"--is equivalent to religious faith.
Here Coyne provides no counter-argument; he merely asserts. It is often the case that the militant materialist has no cogent reply when challenged directly regarding his fundamental premises. Miller's observation is almost self-evidently true. These fashionable theories of today's cosmology do indeed require much faith.
Eminent physicist Paul Davies (as far as I can tell, an Einstein-like pantheist, but not a theist) actually provides an argument rather than a bald assertion (stated three different, equally bankrupt ways). I agree with him, and have made the same argument for years:
[S]cience has its own faith-based belief system. All science proceeds on the assumption that nature is ordered in a rational and intelligible way. You couldn't be a scientist if you thought the universe was a meaningless jumble of odds and ends haphazardly juxtaposed. . . .
The most refined expression of the rational intelligibility of the cosmos is found in the laws of physics, the fundamental rules on which nature runs. The laws of gravitation and electromagnetism, the laws that regulate the world within the atom, the laws of motion — all are expressed as tidy mathematical relationships. But where do these laws come from? And why do they have the form that they do?
. . . to be a scientist, you had to have faith that the universe is governed by dependable, immutable, absolute, universal, mathematical laws of an unspecified origin. You've got to believe that these laws won't fail, that we won't wake up tomorrow to find heat flowing from cold to hot, or the speed of light changing by the hour.
Over the years I have often asked my physicist colleagues why the laws of physics are what they are. The answers vary from "that's not a scientific question" to "nobody knows." The favorite reply is, "There is no reason they are what they are — they just are." The idea that the laws exist reasonlessly is deeply anti-rational. After all, the very essence of a scientific explanation of some phenomenon is that the world is ordered logically and that there are reasons things are as they are. If one traces these reasons all the way down to the bedrock of reality — the laws of physics — only to find that reason then deserts us, it makes a mockery of science. . . .
Although scientists have long had an inclination to shrug aside such questions concerning the source of the laws of physics, the mood has now shifted considerably. Part of the reason is the growing acceptance that the emergence of life in the universe, and hence the existence of observers like ourselves, depends rather sensitively on the form of the laws. If the laws of physics were just any old ragbag of rules, life would almost certainly not exist.
. . . The multiverse theory is increasingly popular, but it doesn't so much explain the laws of physics as dodge the whole issue. There has to be a physical mechanism to make all those universes and bestow bylaws on them. This process will require its own laws, or meta-laws. Where do they come from? The problem has simply been shifted up a level from the laws of the universe to the meta-laws of the multiverse.
Clearly, then, both religion and science are founded on faith — namely, on belief in the existence of something outside the universe, like an unexplained God or an unexplained set of physical laws, maybe even a huge ensemble of unseen universes, too. For that reason, both monotheistic religion and orthodox science fail to provide a complete account of physical existence.
This shared failing is no surprise, because the very notion of physical law is a theological one in the first place, a fact that makes many scientists squirm. Isaac Newton first got the idea of absolute, universal, perfect, immutable laws from the Christian doctrine that God created the world and ordered it in a rational way. Christians envisage God as upholding the natural order from beyond the universe, while physicists think of their laws as inhabiting an abstract transcendent realm of perfect mathematical relationships.
And just as Christians claim that the world depends utterly on God for its existence, while the converse is not the case, so physicists declare a similar asymmetry: the universe is governed by eternal laws (or meta-laws), but the laws are completely impervious to what happens in the universe. . . .
In other words, the laws should have an explanation from within the universe and not involve appealing to an external agency. The specifics of that explanation are a matter for future research. But until science comes up with a testable theory of the laws of the universe, its claim to be free of faith is manifestly bogus.
("Taking Science on Faith," New York Times, 11-24-07)
Giberson and Miller are thoughtful men of good will. Reading them, you get a sense of conviction and sincerity absent from the writings of many creationists, who blatantly deny the most obvious facts about nature in the cause of their faith. Both of their books are worth reading: Giberson for the history of the creation/ evolution debate, and Miller for his lucid arguments against intelligent design. Yet in the end they fail to achieve their longed-for union between faith and evolution. And they fail for the same reason that people always fail: a true harmony between science and religion requires either doing away with most people's religion and replacing it with a watered-down deism, or polluting science with unnecessary, untestable, and unreasonable spiritual claims.
This is what one calls a false dichotomy. Coyne has again employed circular argumentation, and suggested wild schemes as the only possibilities of such reconciliation. He hasn't demonstrated that this is the case. What is so difficult about accepting that science is confined to the study of matter, and that religion is primarily a matter of spirit (pun intended)?
Although Giberson and Miller see themselves as opponents of creationism, in devising a compatibility between science and religion they finally converge with their opponents. In fact, they exhibit at least three of the four distinguishing traits of creationists: belief in God, the intervention of God in nature, and a special role for God in the evolution of humans. They may even show the fourth trait, a belief in irreducible complexity, by proposing that a soul could not have evolved, but was inserted by God.
None of these beliefs, however, interfere in the slightest with accepting the facts and methods of science. They simply refuse to arbitrarily rule out God as having some place in the whole schema. The laws of science and the idea that God might be behind these laws as originator and/or preserver, are not contradictory concepts. Coyne and other materialists may wish to define such a thing out of existence, by category, but it is not an inherent contradiction.
It would appear, then, that one cannot be coherently religious and scientific at the same time. That alleged synthesis requires that with one part of your brain you accept only those things that are tested and supported by agreed-upon evidence, logic, and reason, while with the other part of your brain you accept things that are unsupportable or even falsified. In other words, the price of philosophical harmony is cognitive dissonance. Accepting both science and conventional faith leaves you with a double standard: rational on the origin of blood clotting, irrational on the Resurrection; rational on dinosaurs, irrational on virgin births. Without good cause, Giberson and Miller pick and choose what they believe. At least the young-earth creationists are consistent, for they embrace supernatural causation across the board.
Religious faith is opposed to "evidence, logic, and reason" and is based on "unsupportable" assertions across the board. This sort of sweeping statement cannot, of course, be answered succinctly, because to answer it would require hours and hours of going over the reason why Christians believe in God. Who has all that time? I don't even have it, and I am a full-time apologist.
Not content to trash religion and imply that virtually all who have faith are irrational dolts and intellectual pea-brains, who necessarily reject science as we know and love it, Coyne takes his "principle" even further, extending ultimate religious opposition to just about every reason-based field of knowledge known to man:
. . . the most important conflict . . . is not between religion and science. It is between religion and secular reason. Secular reason includes science, but also embraces moral and political philosophy, mathematics, logic, history, journalism, and social science--every area that requires us to have good reasons for what we believe. Now I am not claiming that all faith is incompatible with science and secular reason--only those faiths whose claims about the nature of the universe flatly contradict scientific observations. Pantheism and some forms of Buddhism seem to pass the test. But the vast majority of the faithful--those 90 percent of Americans who believe in a personal God, most Muslims, Jews, and Hindus, and adherents to hundreds of other faiths--fall into the "incompatible" category.
I believe this is the most intellectually arrogant and condescending person I have ever encountered. This guy makes Richard Dawkins look like Pope Benedict XVI. It's breathtaking. It takes a lot to shock me anymore, with all the error I deal with on a regular basis, but this phenomenal jeremiad truly did.
Finally, Coyne has his explanation for why many scientists proclaim that science and faith are not in fundamental conflict: filthy lucre:
This disharmony is a dirty little secret in scientific circles. It is in our personal and professional interest to proclaim that science and religion are perfectly harmonious. After all, we want our grants funded by the government, and our schoolchildren exposed to real science instead of creationism. Liberal religious people have been important allies in our struggle against creationism, and it is not pleasant to alienate them by declaring how we feel. This is why, as a tactical matter, groups such as the National Academy of Sciences claim that religion and science do not conflict.
Okay, sure, whatever you say . . . mainly I wanted to show my readers what the extreme militant wing of atheism (the science-as-religion and be-all, end-all crowd) believes. Coyne is virtually a self-parody, in writing things like this. But he is obviously dead serious.

PFW executive editor and resident Packers expert Dan Arkush presents the first of five key matchups in the Packers' divisional playoff game vs. the Giants Sunday at Lambeau Field.
Giants RBs Brandon Jacobs and Ahmad Bradshaw vs. Packers' run defense
The Giants' league-low ranking in rushing yards is more than a little misleading. Beginning with their Week 13 barn burner against the Packers in the Meadowlands, when they gained 100 yards on the nose on 20 carries in Green Bay's 38-35 victory, they have rushed for at least 100 yards in five of the last six games, counting last Sunday's wild-card win over Atlanta. In that game, Jacobs and Bradshaw combined for 152 of the Giants' season-high 172 rushing yards in the Giants' dominating 24-2 victory over the Falcons. Pounding inside the tackles with occasional cutbacks that put the Falcons' defenders back on their heels, Jacobs (14-92, 6.6 ypc) was primarily responsible for opening up the Giants' offense.
With his quick-slash ability, Bradshaw (14-63 rushing) provided a very effective counterpunch vs. the Falcons. The Week 13 game vs. Green Bay was Bradshaw's first back after being out for a prolonged period with an injury. In that game, Jacobs had eight carries for 59 yards and a one-yard TD run, while Bradshaw ripped off 11 carries for 38 yards and had two catches for nine yards operating vs. a Green Bay LB corps that was missing both starting ILBs A.J. Hawk and Desmond Bishop due to injuries. Also missing in that game was Giants C David Baas.
A key to stopping the Jacobs-Bradshaw duo for the Packers will be strong efforts from burly Ryan Pickett, who has played more on the nose than at left end this season, and Bishop and Hawk. Pickett must clog the running lanes, and Green Bay's inside 'backers must stay disciplined and do a good job adjusting to the contrasting styles of Jacobs and Bradshaw.

If you are going to make broth in a slow cooker, you need to be prepared to use it for dinner. If you don't not only will your senses revolt, but so will your family. The aroma of broth cooking a in a slow cooker permeates the entire house and as my daughter says "deceptively smells like food". So after making a batch of vegetable broth, I usually use some of it to make Minestrone Soup with Quinoa Pasta.
Making your own vegetable broth is very frugal, especially if you use veggies from your garden. It is easier to make than bone broths, because you don't have to worry about the bones or the fat.
- 2½ - 3 onions
- 6 - 8 cloves garlic
- 6 - 8 stalks celery
- 6 - 8 carrots
- 1 large potato
- 16 cups of water
- 1 teaspoon parsley
- 1 teaspoon basil
- 1 teaspoon sage
- 1 teaspoon oregano
- dash of pepper
- Add the water to Slow Cooker.
- Do not peel the vegetables. Just wash them and coarsely chop them. Add them to the water.
- Add spices and pepper to taste.
- Cook on low for 8 hours.
- Strain the broth through a fine mesh colander.
- You can use the broth immediately, place it in the refrigerator for up to 5 days or freeze it. If you freeze the broth, leave room for expansion.

Careers in wind energy
Wind turbines are being built across the country. Learn more about how these towers of power are generating jobs in a variety of occupations.
You see them with growing frequency in some parts of the country: wind turbines, their large blades rotating through the air, far overhead. As a common form of renewable energy, wind power is generating more than just electricity. It is increasingly generating jobs for workers in many different occupations.
Many workers are employed on wind farms: areas where groups of wind turbines produce electricity from wind power. Wind farms are frequently located in the midwestern, western, and northeastern regions of the United States. But many other States are in the process of substantially increasing their wind-generating capacity, and there are wind energy jobs nationwide.
This article provides information on some of the career opportunities in wind power.

Eastern Iowa homeless shelters say they've been full for months. Now, with sub-freezing temperatures here to stay for the next few months, some are having a tough time finding a place to spend the night.
"It doesn't bother me seeing the people that come in every day because they have a bed," said Rod Carlson, Operations Assistant at Cedar House Shelter. "It's the people that call every day and that I have to turn away because we have no beds."
It's been 2013 for less than a week and already Cedar House Emergency Shelter in Cedar Rapids has had to turn away 10 people this year.
"There seems to be more and more people homeless than when we first opened 12 years ago," said Raymond Krug, Operations Director.
The shelter has room for 16 people at a time. Those beds have been full since last summer.
Other local shelters report similar statistics. They've been full for months.
"There's a real need out there and it's because of the heat wave that we had last summer and then now going into the cold," said Carlson.
During extreme weather, Cedar House can take up to five more people in overflow and those beds are often filled as well.
"Our city is filled with people that have no home," said Krug. "They have no place to go. Some are sleeping in places that are not designated for sleeping, like in cars."
The problem is bigger than Cedar Rapids. Each January the Iowa Balance of State Continuum of Care hosts a homeless count. The 2013 count hasn't happened yet but last year's found 1,803 people without a home in just one night. That was up 49 people from 2011.
"This isn't a problem that's going away," said Carlson.
At Cedar House,directors say on nights when they're full, they work with other area shelters to find homeless people a place to spend the night.
The phone number for the shelter is 319-364-2630.

Best Uses
I needed a bag I could take on airplanes. It needed to be big enough to carry everything I needed immediate access to, yet small enough to be able to use as a carry on and that would fit under the seat in front of me. This bag fits that need and I can even put my purse in it! My husband will carry it for me and no one will know he's carrying a purse!! LOL It's perfect!
Best Uses
I use this bag for school and work and it is perfect. Fits my 15" laptop with plenty of room left for notebooks, etc. The design is superior, not flashy but classic and streamlined. Took bag to the ER with family and had everything handy - meds, wallet, calendar, water bottle, snacks, knitting, it held it all comfortably and looked great. The side pockets are deep and perfect for keys and phone. Interior pockets are made of flimsey material, but will withhold final judgment. I have scads of canvas tote bags in various sizes and colors but bought this for a more professional appearance. Work to school is a breeze because I can have everything handy. Better than backpack because it is easy to get into. Also, the zippered top is great. The zipper is well placed and durable. Got compliments the first day used and much admiration from other women. The price is fair for this product. The raw edges of the leather pockets and top give it character. The straps have no holes, which is nice. The plain brass buckles are sturdy and allow for custom fit. The snap tab which keeps both handles together is clever and useful. Could not be happier!
Best Uses
It holds my purse, my coffee thermos, and my lunch bag. It's all hidden below the top zipper so I don't look like a pack mule.
Best Uses
This is a beautiful piece, very functional and roomy. It easily accommodates a laptop in addition to all the normal items women carry, including a small clutch or handbag. It could also serve as an overnight bag or carry on item.
The only improvement would perhaps be to add a compartment divider or two. Due to the large size, it would be nice to have built in separators. That said, doing that would limit use for travel. It would also be nice if the interior was a little lighter colored, for ease in finding smaller items in the great expanse. But, these are trivial suggestions. Overall this is an awesome bag that I'll use for many years. Glad I bought it.
Best Uses
My wife LOVES this purse, it's roomy enough for all her stuff, and tough enough to handle it all!

X-158 Mold & Mildew Sealant - Gallon
DESCRIPTION: SafeChoice X-158 is a premium quality, clear liquid coating for prophylactic use where mold and mildew are likely to appear. It is not a cleaning agent, but a clear defensive sealer designed to encapsulate surfaces which would typically be subject to mold and mildew attack. Because it is not toxic and low odor (odor free when dry), it is ideal for use in unventilated, confined areas such as shower stalls, bathrooms and saunas. Yet it is durable enough for use on roofs, air filtration systems and spa decks. It may also be used on countertops, walls, floors and ceilings. SafeChoice X-158 coating applies quickly and simply. One application lasts between 30 and 180 days, depending on the severity of the conditions.
USE ON: SafeChoice X-158 can be applied over any surface where mold and mildew might appear, including but not limited to tile, grout, epoxy coatings, rubber sealants, acrylic, wood, masonry and concrete including exterior walls and roofs.
SURFACE PREPARATION: Existing mold and mildew must be removed. Infested areas should first be cleaned with SafeChoice Super Clean and a stiff bristle brush or broom prior to coating the surface with SafeChoice X-158.
APPLICATION: Apply full strength with a sponge or preferably a hand sprayer. Let dry. Repeat every 30-180 days, depending on results.
COVERAGE: Adjust to job - depends upon porosity of surface.
CLEAN UP: Rinse with water.
DRYING TIME: Within a few minutes.
LIMITATIONS: Because SafeChoice X-158 is a prophylactic coating and does not kill mold and mildew organisms, any surface coated must first be made free of existing mold and mildew.
HEALTH PRECAUTIONS: As with all cleaning products, keep container tightly closed and out of the reach of children. Do not ingest. If swallowed, drink two (2) glasses of water to dilute. In case of eye contact, flush immediately with plenty of water for 15 minutes. If you are chemically sensitive, always test for personal tolerance.
LIMITED LIABILITY: Liability, whether express or implied, is limited solely to replacement of product shown to be defective when applied in accordance with instructions and shall under no circumstances include liability for labor costs or consequential damages. It is the user's responsibility to determine the suitability and safety of the product for its intended use. This limited warranty may not be modified or extended by manufacturer's representatives, distributors, or dealers of AFM products. We particularly recommend that users always test in small inconspicuous areas before application to the entire surface.

DENVER -- The Brewers lost, 13-8, on Saturday in a typical Coors Field game against the Rockies that included 21 runs and 30 hits.
Neither team put a zero on the scoreboard until the both teams went scoreless in the top of the fifth inning. The Rockies scored in every inning but the fifth.
"When they score in every inning but one it's tough," said Brewers manager Ned Yost. "When you score eight runs it's usually enough to win, but this is a tough place to pitch. It's not an excuse, but it doesn't help when you walk [12] batters."
The Brewers started the offensive explosion early, hitting four-straight singles off Denny Stark to score three first-inning runs.
Center fielder Brady Clark started for Scott Podsednik, who had appeared in every game since May 7. Clark had a career-high four hits with a double and two runs, and had an amazing catch in the bottom of the second with the bases loaded to limit the Rockies to one run and preserve a Brewers lead.
"That catch was phenomenal," said Yost. "I don't know how he made that catch. I mean that's the hardest play in baseball; running straight away from you and then diving straight out and catching it. He's been playing like that all year for us. He's a guy who gives you everything he has and is prepared on a daily basis. You can't make a better catch than that."
Milwaukee's John Vander Wal came back to lead-off the third inning with his second home run in as many days, giving the Brewers a 5-2 lead. With two on and two outs in the top of the fourth, Richie Sexson ripped an 0-and-2 pitch over the wall in left for his third hit of the game, giving the Brewers an 8-5 lead.
But the Brewers offense stopped there.
Preston Wilson belted his 26th home run in the third inning off Brewers starter Matt Kinney and hit No. 27 in the fourth off Dave Burba, becoming the first National Leaguer to reach the 100-RBI mark.
After Wilson's first long ball, Kinney allowed the next three hitters to reach base, then walked Rockies pitcher Stark to make it a 5-5 ballgame. Since Kinney's first career complete game June 27 against Minnesota, he owns a 0-2 mark and has given up 26 runs in 25 1/3 innings of work, good for a 9.12 ERA.
"I just wanted to keep the team in the ballgame," said Kinney. "I just didn't throw that well. This is the ballpark that gives up the most home runs in the big leagues. It didn't have much to do with the way I pitched; you make quality pitches you're going to get guys out no matter where you play."
Stark would also leave the game, but not before giving up eight earned runs off a career-high 11 hits in 3 2/3 innings.
"I made a lot of mistakes," said Stark. "At this level when you do that, they're going to make you pay for it. It was pretty quick that I realized that I didn't have my best stuff. I made a few good pitches where they were able to knock them in for base hits, and I made mistakes and they hurt me."
After a scoreless fifth, the Brewers bullpen struggled once again as Burba and Valerio De Los Santos surrendered the lead after giving up four earned runs off four hits and two walks.
The Rockies bullpen held the Brewers to three hits after Sexson's home run and the Rockies went on to score three more runs as De Los Santos picked up his third loss of the year.
Sexson tied a career high with four hits.

We Are the World 25...
February 14, 2010 - Jennifer Brookens
Hearing the remake of "We Are The World" this weekend really made me feel old. Not in the fact that I remember listening to the original over and over again, but all I felt like doing is griping about, "These artists today, what the blazes passes for talent?!"
OK - I know complaining about who was/wasn't featured and what could've/should've been done violates the whole purpose of the cause here. BUT that being said... 1) ANYONE WHO HAS TO RELY ON AUTOTUNE TO SING 3 LINES SHOULD'VE BEEN RELEGATED TO THE CHORUS!!! Considering talented, even legendary singers like Gladys Knight were skipped over for solos for autotune artist solos?! Um... can we say 'slap-in-the-face?!' (I'll admit I was OK with the remake until that point).
2) Say what you will about the rap... But it leads to my next point: Why not just write a whole new fund-raising song for Haiti?! Why shouldn't the Haiti tragedy get its own song if you're going to go as far as re-writing a 25-year-old song? That brings me to...
3) "We Are The World" is an 80s relic, and probably should've stayed in the 80s. Sorry Michael Jackson fans, and yes I was admittedly moved by seeing his original part kept and seeing his sister Janet singing along with him for the new version. But the song is kind of cheesy by today's standards, and probably why it was never heard on the radio after 1985. I loved it in 5th grade, but now I listen and realize The Boss sounds constipated and Cyndi Lauper manages to put 3 syllables into the word "change."
But like the decked-out Christmas sweater, it's the thought that counts. If anything, maybe it will bring back a little bit of nostalgia and for a moment remind us there are people worse off in Haiti, in Africa and even in our own backyard that could use a helping hand...
Judge for yourselves...

Very sad to hear that the Korean BBQ is gone. Did they get evicted because the landlord wants more expensive merchants in that space? This restaurant was popular for years, even though their location in the back of the mall made them hard to find.

They say a picture is worth 1000 words, but this one simply says: "Sorry Mother Nature, but the game must go on". Fox 31 Denver posted the below photo (along with several others worth seeing) showing kids playing baseball as they normally would with a huge gray cloud over center field.
The photo was originally tweeted by Peter McEvoy, credited to being at Pine Creek High School just on the fringe of the evacuation area.

Boston Strong Hat
A Fund to help the victims of the bombing
Please also see BOSTON STRONG - THE PEACE HAT
and BOSTON LOVE BABY HAT in my Ravelry Store*
Cascade 220 colors are Blue Velvet and Goldenrod
KnitPicks Wool of the Andes colors are Celestial and Semolina
It is one week after the Boston Marathon Bombing. A day that will forever change our home. A day of sorrow and fear, but more importantly, a day of heroes. Why it took place we will perhaps never know, nor will knowing change what happened. Rather than think of the evil of the day, I would like to concentrate on the heroes of the day. The runners, the spectators, the medical personnel, the police and firemen, the first responders and the victims, four of whom are now caught forever in the stars.
The hat is simple, the Boston Skyline, the motto "Boston Strong" that so fits our town. One star for each person taken from us. All proceeds from the sale of this cap pattern will go to OneFundBoston to help the victims. My hope is that next year Boston will be stronger than ever. My hope is that all who weren't able to finish the race this year will somehow be given the chance to run the last mile. Boston won't bow down.
Choose between a close fitting Skull Cap or a taller Ski Hat, the difference is in the decrease. Just be sure to work the decrease section for the height hat desired.
If any knitter would like to donate a finished hat, please email me at LISAGMC@AOLCOM. I will see that the hat goes to a survivor or a runner from that day. or is sold to raise more money for OneFundBoston.

A late penalty denied Boreham Wood maximum points as Dover Athletic snatched a 2-2 draw at Meadow Park.
Ian Allinson's side made a bright start to the Conference South match and went close through Mario Noto but his shot was cleared off the line after just two minutes on Saturday.
Dover keeper Mitchell Walker was being kept busy and he was forced into a save to keep out Austin Lipman's cross-shot.
Graeme Montgomery nearly gave the hosts the lead but his strike was saved from distance by Walker.
Dover Athletic grabbed the opening goal which came against the run of play. Barry Cogan's free-kick was saved by James Russell but Jeff Goulding netted the rebound.
Wood continued to dominate the first half but their pressure went unrewarded as Callum Reynolds and Charlie O'Loughlin both failed to find the target with headers.
Dover should have made it 2-0 at the start of the second half when Tom Murphy raced clear on goal but he fired over the bar.
Wood levelled the contest ten minutes after the restart when Montgomery's free-kick was headed past his own keeper by Terrell Forbes.
Allinson's side took the lead just two minutes later when Montgomery struck a 30-yard shot into the net for a deserved second goal.
The hosts looked in control but were hit by a sucker punch when Mark Jones conceded a penalty in the 80th minute for fouling Sean Raggett. Goulding blasted home the spot-kick to clinch a point for the visitors.
Teenager Junior Morais made his debut for Wood after joining on a one-month loan from Wycombe. The 18-year-old forward has been brought in along with Chairboys striker Lee Angol.
Allinson told the club website: "We welcome both Lee and Junior to the club and in them we have two young professionals who are hungry to succeed and show what they can do at this level.
"If they work hard and we give them the service I am confident they will score goals for us."
Wood's home game with Farnborough on Monday was postponed due to a waterlogged pitch.
Their next game is at Sutton United on Saturday afternoon.
