Global Issues in Governing Natural Resources
This meeting is co-organized by RRI, the Canadian Forest Service, the University of British Columbia and MegaFlorestais, in collaboration with the Government of British Columbia and the United States Forest Service.
The event is designed to better prepare the next generation of public forest agency leaders to lead in a more complex social, political, environmental and market context. It will engage mid-career professionals from forest ministries and related public agencies in cutting-edge analysis and information for a deeper understanding of global transitions in forest tenure and governance, and markets. The objective is to strengthen contributions of forest agencies to addressing land rights, poverty alleviation, governance, conservation and climate change challenges in their countries. Finally it aims to promote improved information sharing and networks among these future leaders through frank and open dialogue in a small group setting where problems and solutions can be discussed openly.
The agenda will be available shortly. For more information, please contact Claire Biason at cbiason(at)rightsandresources.org.

Microsoft has announced it would start pushing updated versions of several long-criticized Windows 8 apps, including Mail, Calendar, and People, the "Modern"-style program for keeping track of contacts, to the Windows Store today.
Mail, Calendar, and People run in the new "Modern" UI, formerly called "Metro," that's included in Windows 8 and the default UI of Windows RT, the limited-function edition designed for tablets and ARM processor-equipped notebooks and hybrids.
[ Windows 8 is here, and InfoWorld covers Microsoft's new direction, the touch interface for tablet and desktop apps, the transition from Windows 7, and more in the Windows 8 Deep Dive PDF special report. | Stay atop key Microsoft technologies in our Technology: Microsoft newsletter. ]
The announcement was expected: On Friday, Microsoft-centric blogs said that the refreshed apps were imminent.
The updates will officially launch today, although a Microsoft spokeswoman said they would appear "as early as [Monday] evening." Rather than rely on the familiar Windows Update service to download and install the apps, however, users must manually steer to the Windows Store from Windows 8 or Windows RT, then click on the Updates link at the upper right, to retrieve the new versions.
These were the first major upgrades to Windows 8's and Windows RT's bundled apps since the two dueling operating systems launched last October, and foreshadow a faster upgrade release cycle for the two OSes themselves.
Microsoft announced the updated apps in a blog post, which also described some of the changes. Mail, for example, will now filter messages to display only those not yet read, automatically complete addresses in the To: field based on prior messages, and support rights-managed emails, which typically restrict practices like forwarding or printing.
But Calendar will drop support for synchronizing with Google Calendar, according to The Verge, which quoted a Microsoft program manager. Microsoft confirmed that to Computerworld.
That, too, was in the cards. In December 2012, Google announced it would abandon Microsoft EAS (Exchange ActiveSync), a popular enterprise-grade synchronization service that is also widely used by consumers to sync their smartphones and tablets with company email, contacts and calendars.
Google said it would drop EAS support for new consumer customers as of Jan. 30, 2013, but promised that it would continue to sync accounts of existing free accounts and all paying Google Apps customers.
It wasn't clear, however, whether Microsoft's Modern-style Calendar would drop EAS support for all Google users, including those, such as Google Apps for Business customers, who can still sync through EAS. Microsoft did not immediately reply to a request for clarification. "If [Microsoft] pulls sync support for corporate [Google] accounts -- like me -- this will get real ugly, and fast," said Patrick Moorhead, the principal of Moor Insights & Strategy.

The Dubuque Fighting Saints will continue February Fun this weekend with their games on both Friday and Saturday.
On Friday the Dubuque Fighting Saints will take on the Omaha Lancers at 7:15 p.m. for the Best in Show, which is presented by That's my Dog! in Dubuque. That's my Dog! specializes in dog training and during Friday night's game, the company owner, Robin MacFarlane, will have her canine companion Diva showcase an array of skills during Friday night's game.
Diva the dog will also be conducting the ceremonial puck drop with the captains of both teams, the first time this is taking place in Fighting Saints history. Diva will also be the judge of the "Best in Show" contest, where she will judge children to see which one is the "Best in Show." That will take place during the game's first intermission.
On Saturday the Dubuque Fighting Saints will compete in a Prairie Farms Cowbell Cup battle with the Cedar Rapids RoughRiders at 7:05 p.m. Saturday's game will be a BLACK OUT GAME presented by Truck Country. During the game fans are encouraged to wear black. The Fighting Saints will be wearing special black uniforms during Saturday night's game. After the game, those jerseys will be auctioned off with all proceeds benefiting the Dubuque Youth Hockey Association. Last year's BLACK OUT GAME jersey auction raised over $15,000 for youth hockey.

À La Carte Excursions | General Information
Add To Plan
Founded by King Anco Marzio around the 4th century BC, Ostia Antica was Rome's main commercial port and military base, with a population in its peak of nearly 100,000 inhabitants. Barbarian invasions and malaria led to the decline of city and eventually all the inhabitants abandoned it. Buried for centuries by sand, the city has now been excavated and offers a remarkable picture of life in the Roman Empire.
Your visit starts at Via delle Tombe, which leads to the Porta Romana, one of the city's three gates. This is the beginning of Decumanus Maximus, the main road through the town. From the Neptune and Amphitride Baths, you'll walk to the theater and the forum that were once the center of the city. Discover the main public buildings and no fewer than 18 temples dedicated to the Persian god Mithras, as well as a Jewish Synagogue dating from the 1st century BC and a Christian basilica. See the House of Diana and the Termopolium, an ancient Roman bar with a marble counter and fresco representing the fruits and foodstuffs that were sold there. Visit the Museum Ostiense, where many of the ancient sculptures and mosaics found among the ruins are on display. Afterwards, board your coach and proceed to the seaside resort of Ostia Lido. Free time allows you to explore this fascinating town, known as the Sea of Rome, and to enjoy a complimentary gelato. Then, you'll drive back to the ship.
Please note: Wear comfortable shoes; bring a hat, sunscreen and water.

Listen to Samples
As we head into a new year, Salted Music kicks it off with a bang delivering the first release of 2007! `So Far` is the first of many singles to come off of Miguel Migs' highly anticipated upcoming artist album `Those Things` (which is slotted for a March 20th, 2007 release date). `So Far` features the lovely sounds of L.T. on vocals who you're sure to recognize by her unique smooth and mesmerizing voice from Blue 6 hits `Sweeter Love` and `Love yourself`, as well as Big Muff`s `My Funny Valentine` along with countless other beautiful stylings.
On remix duty Rasmus Faber starts things off with a lively cowbell infused Latin flavored percussive vocal version. A strong builder that grows as acoustic guitars layer and glide over thundering beats that peak out with a chunky live bassline kicking in to make those hips sway! Already tested and approved by dance floor professionals around the globe, the Farplane Dub utilizes the same elements as the vocal but is geared straight for the dance floor with its peak time energy and building breakdowns.
Eric Stamile (who has produced for Cee-Lo and Gaelle) provides his Old School Revival Dub taking us back to the 80s with its bright saw synth chord progression and a dirty electronic synth bassline to spice things up a bit and rock the dance floor.
The `Original Album Version` showcases Migs' quality production and song writing skills, with a stripped down and laid back classic soul sound infused with warm strings, acoustic guitars, live bass and a catchy vocal hook that will have you singing along, `we are so far and I'm taking a ride to where you are`.
Enjoy and be a creative individual with your own mind! Don't follow the sheep and do your own thing!

Carl Gunhouse, Tourist, White Sands, NM August 2010
Everything Falls ApartHeliopolis (154 Huron St. Brooklyn NY 11222) Map it Free
Photographs by Carl Gunhouse
Curated by Jason John Würm
Opening: October 5th, 6-8PM
October 6th through October 13th
Hours: Weekends Noon-5PM & by appointment
Heliopolis in conjuncture with Jason John Würm's residency at Heliopolis is proud to present a solo exhibition of photography by Carl Gunhouse, and the release of his 2nd monograph Falling Apart published by Waal-Boght Press.
Everything Falls Apart draws on Carl Gunhouse's academic background as graduate student in American history to investigate the way in which history tends to affect our perception of current events. The work is culled from images made over six years of wandering across America, a path based on intuition and the chase of the occasional historic event. This journey began in the crumbling of the Bush presidency and continued through Obama's first term, witnessing the unraveling of American prosperity and the long slog of dealing with the repercussions. The resulting work lacks the grandiosity of journalism and its constant hysteria for the now and instead exposes the little visual bits of America that are left to history and give voice to our shared experience.
Signed copies of Falling Apart will be available for purchase for $25.00 at Heliopolis and online at www.waalboghtpress.info- http://www.suncityprojectspace.com

Planning Your Visit
Welcome to Speyside!
Your journey of discovery through Malt Whisky Country begins here …
The Spirit of Speyside Whisky Festival takes place throughout the Speyside region in the north east of Scotland. The region lies partly in Moray and partly in the Highlands of Scotland and is set around the River Spey which flows through it. Historic malt whisky distilleries are found all along the length of the Spey, which is itself a legend, being one of the finest salmon rivers in Scotland. The river begins high in the Monadhliath Mountains in the west near Aviemore, and runs for 100 miles to the fertile coastal plain of the Moray Firth, where it spills into Spey Bay.
Travelling north-east along the River Spey, you enter Speyside at Aviemore. You'll see the celebrated Aberdeen Angus cattle graze on the riverbanks, and the spectacular Cairngorm mountains towering over the broad "strath" as it winds through lush farmland.
Your first port of call is the historic town of Grantown-on-Spey, built in the eighteenth century by Sir James Grant. Here you can wander in the gardens and potter along the attractive Georgian main street for souvenirs in a splendid array of specialist shops – whisky and fishing tackle are just some of the treasures on offer. There is also a good range of visitor accommodation.
Castles and Smugglers
Downstream, the landscape becomes gentler and the slopes of the Cairngorms segue into rolling heather hills. As the river winds, it reveals a succession of panoramic views all along the road to Ballindalloch Castle. Here, you can go north of the river to Knockando where a number of well known malt whiskies are produced, or travel south to Glenlivet – home to the Glenlivet Crown Estate and one of the best known Speyside malt whisky distilleries.
Pretty villages and friendly hostelries scatter the area around the small country towns of Aberlour, Craigellachie, Dufftown and Rothes. This is where you find the highest number of distilleries per square mile on Speyside.
Next along the route is the fertile Laich of Moray, where the majority of the barley used to make malt whisky is grown. The towns of this area, Elgin, Forres, Fochabers and Keith each offer their own distinct character and a wide range of visitor attractions and accommodation.
To the sea...
Journey's end is the spectacular expanse of the Moray Firth with its stunning beaches, pristine coastal waters, fascinating fishing villages and outstanding marine wildlife. This beautiful natural environment is a fitting climax to a river's journey which began in the distant mountains and has wound its way through some of the loveliest scenery in Scotland.

Sedgemoor defends decision to not bid for Olympic Torch relay (From Bridgwater Mercury)
Get involved! Send your photos, video, news & views by texting MERCURY NEWS to 80360 or email us
Sedgemoor defends decision to not bid for Olympic Torch relay
8:00am Tuesday 29th May 2012 in News By Andrew McGill
Sedgemoor District Council this week defended its decision not to bid for the Olympic Torch to pass through the region.
Thousands of spectators turned out last week to watch the flame being carried through West Somerset, Taunton and Glastonbury, but bypass Sedgemoor.
Council bosses had said they believed it would be too expensive to host the Torch.
Some Mercury readers have criticised Sedgemoor District Council for not putting itself forward to stage part of the Torch relay.
Roger Anniss, of Cannington, said: "The decision denied thousands of residents the opportunity to savour this once in a lifetime experience."
Estimates put the cost of hosting the Torch in Taunton Deane at £40,000, but it is thought factoring in the loss of council officers' time may have increased that figure.
In response, Sedgemoor District Council said it had taken the decision with taxpayers' interests at heart and referred to its position statement which was made earlier this year.

What's the big deal ? I also thought there was only going to be one or two torches that would get passed around, not issuing 8000 for each person to carry for 300m !!! What a waste of money.
When London 'won' the bid to host the Olympics, I thought more like 'booby prize', so much spent just so a chosen few can soak up the limelight and wear a medal.

Silicon Valley to Hong Kong with dietary restrictions
Four of us including two teenagers arriving Saturday, June 29th early morning. Unfortunately, DD#2 & I are allergic to shellfish. Additionally, same DD will have her braces rewired day of flight; therefore, unable to eat much solid food for at least 48 hrs (we'll be looking for congee, milk based drinks, etc).
Foods we enjoy: Szechuan, Asian Fusion (love the contemporary take at Mission Chinese in SF & fusion Japanese we've had in LA/SF), Indian & Italian*.
Eager to try dim sum in HK but we're not too adventurous. Locally, we love Yank Sing and have been going there for 15+ years. Combination of food, especially veg. selection, and service that keeps us going back. Since we'll be staying at Langham** Mong Kok, thought we can give Ming Court a try. How is their service (for English speakers) and do they have a veg. selection? We do eat pork/chicken, only asking for safety precaution. We also have the option of eating dinner at Ming Court. What do you think? Also considering Din Tai Fung...not sure if we'll ever make it to the one in L.A. Others on my radar are Above & Beyond & Intercontinental.
Is San Xi Lou worth a visit (looks like we'd have to take a cab?). Also looking at afternoon tea at Mandarin Oriental*** or Intercontinental (where would my teenagers feel more comfortable?). My friends stayed at Peninsula & loved the tea there but I prefer a place that takes reservations. Can we order two sets of tea for four people, given DD2 may not be able to eat much? I'll save this for Monday, so she's had time to recover. Of course we'll pay for any extra drinks.
If we don't dine at Intercontinental for any particular meal, I would still like to go here for cocktails and enjoy the view. Any comparable/better alternatives I may not be familiar with?
*of course, we get plenty of this at home :)
**with club privileges
***is this very formal?
English is widely spoken in HK (compared to Mainland China, Taiwan, Korea, Japan), especially in hotels - you won't have any problem at Ming Court. The menu there will also include a section on vegetarian dishes, and their dim sum will be a class above Yank Sing (which happened to be my fave dim sum joint in the *whole* of the US, not just SF). Do let them know of your shellfish allergy, as many dim sum items have shrimps in them, e.g. "siu mai" which has a mixture of minced pork and shrimps.
Mandarin Oriental is not *that* formal, especially for afternoon tea. And I see folks in very casual wear there even for dinner.
HK isn't the world's best spot for Sichuan-food-outside-of-Sichuan but there are some good places to eat. No, you don't have to take a taxi to San Xi Lou (actually, you don't need to take a taxi to anywhere except for the outlying areas of the New Territories). It's about a 10 minute walk from the Central MTR.
Dim sum will probably be your biggest challenge due to the hidden shrimp factor, but anywhere fancy will have English assistance for sure.
re: Luther
"It's about a 10 minute walk from the Central MTR." You must be a fast walker. And like walking uphill. Both ways.
re: Uncle Yabai
haha OK, 20 minutes. and yeah you'll probably be sweaty
If you like the Yank Sing (which I also like quite a bit, and think of it as some of the best dim sum in the US), then you'll quite happy in Hong Kong. Your basic dim sum place in Hong Kong is a bit better than Yank Sing, and your fine dim sum place will be ahead by a mile (or two). But it will in general be more accomplished (or even an order of magnitude better) versions of the same dishes, so you won't be dealing with a feeling of "this is so different from what I get back home that I'm too verklempt to eat".
re: Uncle Yabai
@Uncle Yabai: have you tried jai yun in sf? i'm curious what you think of that place if you have.
Thank you all for your replies. Good to know about Ming Court vs. Yank Sing, looking forward to our meal. Also, I am leaning towards Four Seasons tea as I read somewhere that they offer more savory items.
I do have a few more questions, if I may...
bakery suggestions
where to buy tea to take home...girls & I love the lychee & other infused teas from a specialty shop locally ($10 for 2oz I think)
tea/specialty drink places teenagers would enjoy (may be parents too :)
Lan Kwai Fong - was told to check out Asian eats here. Any recs?
Lastly, I haven't made dinner plans since I am really unsure how jet lag will hit us. I would really love to dine at one of the iconic Hong Kong hotels for the food, ambiance & service; therefore, would appreciate a Chinese/Asian rec as well as continental.
re: ceekskat
Anyone? Please?
Hui Lau Shan for drinks? Milk tea suggestions? I am aware of Lan Fong Yuen, anything on the Kowloon side?
Any noodle places besides Tsim Chai Kee? Sadly, my 14 yr old is only going to be able to eat soft foods or drink her meals for 48 hrs. or so.
Looking at T'ang Court for dinner possibly.
re: ceekskat
What does "Asian eats" mean? You're in Asia. Don't go to LKF (the white middle class English speaking expat enclave) for Asian food...
Different bakeries for different things. Up in Tai Po Market I really like Wai Sing 煒成 for a fantastic pineapple bun (with real butter inside) and Wah Fai for their signature cinnamon-sugar beignets and apple pie. Black n White in Tai Kok Tsui for chocolate mousse cakes. I don't think you can beat the classic Tai Cheong for egg tarts, at least if you like the dense crumbly type crust like I do.
I haven't been to Heart's Dessert but this recently-opened place in Sham Shui Po is high on my list next time I'm around. Check out the photos on Openrice, they're really enticing. Australia Dairy Company is a good stop if you want egg sandwiches, milk tea, and steamed milk pudding (soft foods all around).
Any noodle places? You mean in all of HK? There are unlimited noodles. I think the best, most distinctive noodle experience you can have might be at Shing Kee, located at a housing estate in Sha Tin, not a long walk from the MTR. Go for breakfast or lunch and get noodles with their signature stewed beef (also easy to eat, very soft). Not much English is spoken but they're very warm and welcoming and it's not like there's a big menu to navigate.
re: Luther
Thank you very much for your thoughtful response.
"Asian eats" - read somewhere T'ang Court is "pan-Asian". Subsequently discovered it is Cantonese. I don't mind if latter as long as it is good. I thought perhaps there exists a hotel restaurant which may incorporate some of the various cuisines of Asia. I'm going dizzy from looking at menus...Tin Lung Heen looks really good!
Appreciate the bakery recs but unfortunately Tai Po Market seems to be distant from the areas we'll probably be frequenting (guessing between Mong Kok & Central).
Tai Cheong - "if you like the dense crumbly type crust". Not familiar with different crusts as I've never had egg tart before. Egg tart in SF has been on my to do list for quite some time. Definitely on my list!
Heart's Dessert - again, seems a little out of the way for us but based on openrice's pics, I imagine my girls will be in heaven here so I'm just going to have to try to find the time!!
Wasn't sure about Australia Dairy Company due to crowds & from what I've read, lack of service. But good to know about the availability of soft foods here & doesn't seem far from hotel.
"There are unlimited noodles"- you make it sound as though it is difficult to go wrong here :) I would love for this to be the case! Will keep Shing Kee in mind, especially since you say "warm and welcoming".
re: ceekskat
Outside of the very expensive high-end restaurants, you'll have to adjust your concept of "service." Even the best tasting food is often served in a way that could offend someone used to US standards, where waitstaff are expected to act enthusiastic all the time. Think of it as a local diner- unless they know you personally, they aren't going to pretend to be your buddy. It doesn't mean they hate you or you shouldn't ask them for stuff that you want. ADC is extremely popular and you might have to wait in a queue for a few minutes to get a table. That table might put you cheek by jowl with other diners. The waiter might be brusque and indifferent, and you might have to just say you want 4 egg sandwiches and 4 cups of milk tea and he might scribble it down without acknowledging you even exist. Don't take it personally, the expectations of how a waiter should behave are different from US culture. Just enjoy the spectacular food.
A casual dim sum shop with good quality products (and highly unusual late-night hours) near your hotel is the Dimdimsum Dim Sum Specialty Store. They have a location on Tung Choi St. You might find this to be a good alternative to high-end dinners, or a late night snack for kids.
Compared to anywhere in the US, yes, you can't go wrong. Eat any and all noodles.
I was going to say that it's worth making a trip on the MTR up to Tai Po Market, but if you aren't even willing to go to Sham Shui Po I guess you have made the decision not to step very far from your hotel. I guess that's OK, if any of you are food lovers you'll be planning your next trip by the time you get on the plane home. If your only adventure more than a couple blocks from the hotel is a trip up to Sha Tin to eat some ho fun in soup and stewed beef at Shing Kee, it's not a bad one at all. There is a fantastic documentary about the family and their restaurant up on Youtube, it's in Cantonese but you don't need to understand to enjoy it:
Part 1
re: Luther
It was pretty late last night & didn't check Heart's Dessert location thoroughly...much closer than I thought.
As much as I would love to eat at the smaller places, we have two in our family with shellfish allergies (hence the service requirement) & dh doesn't always humour me in venturing out somewhere in particular for deliciousness.
Also, we normally don't dine at high end restaurants in the U.S but this is Hong Kong!! I'll be happy even with cocktail & nibbles here.
Gotta finish packing...thanks again for all your help.

It pours a clear light-copper color with a small head but some sticky lacing.
The smell is of butterscotch and some bitter hops.
Taste is of bitter hops, not sweet or citrusy.
Overall, a good pale ale. The powerful and bitter hops give it a slight different taste than other IPAs.

A 22oz bomber with best purchased by July 2007 on the label. It was a golden orange color with a medium head that still left some good lacing. A mostly floral aroma, nothing that predominated. Citrussy hops taste, a little muted. Not a very aggressive IPA. Still, it was fun to drink, and I'd try it again.

Not too impressed with this offering from Paper City. Orange-amber in colour with an estery and piney aroma. The taste is quite odd. A bit malty, fruity sweet, but then a very odd character comes forwar -- a slightly cheesey and citric hop flavour that is quite assertive, raw and leafy. The finish a spoiled as a result, with a lot of dry tannins that stick to palate and mess with the feel.

4.33/5 rDev +24.1%
Presentation: 12 oz brown long neck bottle with a best if served by date on the back label.
Appearance: Crystal clear deep reddish copper hue with a rocky tiny and big bubbled white head. Damn near the best head retention I have seen ever.
Smell: Fruity with hints of toffee and mild fruity esters. The hops float from a little piney to a little floral and a touch herbal and a touch citric ... all which combine to make wonderful slightly pungent aroma.
Taste: Very smooth and medium bodied with a rich malt crispness of toasted biscuity grain, slight steely crystal malt and a chewy malt sweetness in the middle which is cut by an ample assertive hop bitterness. Both flavours seem to linger to the finish, though a hop oil flavour is on top, which ends up being quite pleasant with the residual sweetness and a ghost like buttery diacetyl.
Notes: One of the more flavourful brews Paper City puts out ... indeed it is a very good IPA. One of the better IPAs in the NE for sure.

12 ounce bottle, with freshness dating area, cant be read however, washed out... Pours a light dull golden tone, cloudy, respectable tiny bubble head, leaving oodles of lacing and sheets of lace. Nose is citrussy, mouthfeel is soft and inviting. Hoppy mild IPA, some grainyness noted as well as a soapy note. A litle thin body wise and perhaps a tad watery, could use some more malt to sturdy up the mid section of this brew. Nothing special, respectable sessioner.

3.18/5 rDev -8.9%
Appearance: One inch head, orange-brown in color, clear, high carbonation
Smell: citrus hops, honey, husk, and toasted malt
Taste: citrus hops, grapefruit, honey, husk, and toasted malt
Mouthfeel: sweet start with a bitter middle and a stronger bitter end, light bodied, high carbonation
Overall: An average IPA. I will say it is fairly juicy, but the flavors do not mesh as well as some other IPAs I have had. I would not turn this down, but I would not rush out for it either.

India'n Pale Ale boasts a rich, malty nose, redolent with brown sugars, apricots, oranges, vanilla, and freshly-baked bread. Notably absent from the nose is a strong hop aroma. There is a good hint of rosewater around the edges, and a slight tinge of grapefruit, but not at the potency I would expect from an IPA.
On the tongue, the beer quite makes up for the hops, which do come across with a nice, strong grapefruit bitterness. However, it is still the malts which dominate, though here the brown sugars and sugary fruit esters are undercut by a huge chocolate malt and pecan base. The aftertaste is largely chocolate malts and pecans, with washes of bitter hops countering. Mouthfeel is medium-light, and carbonation is medium.
Overall, this is a good beer, though I expect many will be surprised at how much nut flavor is present, and lament the fact that the hops aren't stronger. Perhaps the problem is the label: this doesn't taste like many IPAs, and so expectation doesn't meet taste. Still, the brew is well-made and flavorful, and worth trying.

honey colored with a frothy off-white head of different sized bubbles. The head settles slowly toward the beer, leaving a thick ring around the inside of the glass. Aroma is light, with faint hints of malt and hops. Initial flavor is light on the hops, and heavier on the malt, with a bit of smoke as well. The hops come through more in the finish, with some bitter aftertaste. Mouthfeel is a bit watery. Tastes more like a pale ale than an IPA.

Pours a clear dark amber with a nicely apportioned off-white head. Nice bit of lacing.
Smells a little sweet and a lot hoppy. Bit of caramel in the vapors.
Nice amount of sweet malt up front with a lingering diacetyl in the middle. Turns a little yeasty and then the hop burn drops in. Hops are well balanced against the initial sweetness of this beer. An excellent IPA and I'm not a big fan of the style.
Mouthfeel is very moderate with a a nice palate bath of hops for those that really groove on them.
Highly drinkable. I'll definitely load up on this come warmer weather.

This Indian Pale ale pours a nice amber color. There is a foamy head, which unfortunately did not last very long. The smell is somewhat faintly hoppy. The taste is slightly bitter with an odd metalic tinge. Not a bad beer but not worth searching out.

Clear bright amber color, nice head settles at 1/4 of an inch. Laces complexly and fairly completely. Aromatic fruity aroma, slightly more hop astringency than some. Flavor is a contrast in part -- good malt, caramel, some buttery tones and breadiness. Carbonation is subdued, helping to generate a decently creamy mouthfeel. Hops lend a good balance, mixing west coast with more floral and dry Kentish Goldings. And balance is what this beer does best, a quaffable IPA that keeps hops in your mind but not in your face. Thanks to Alex P. for bringing this beer from Rhode Island while he interviewed for a Twin Cities TV internship.

Review from notes.
A: Pours an amber/copper color with a one finger white head that fades quickly and leaves behind very little lacing.
S: Not overly hoppy, a little bit of pine and light citrus, with a little bit of grass and caramel.
T: Similar to the aroma, a little light in terms of hop presence. Some light pine and grass, heavier caramel and bready malt on the finish.
M: Medium bodied with medium carbonation. Pretty smooth and easy drinking.
O: Not bad, but probably not something I would seek out again.

Pours a cloudy orange color with a medium white foamy head. The head is average,but it does leave ggod lacing. The smell has a strong "bisquity' aroma along with hops and spices. The taste is creamy with an average hop bitterness mixed with citrus hops. A good IPA,just not the extreme hoppy IPA that we've become used too. The m/f is medium,alittle thick and creamy with the flavors blending well. A good English stlye IPA and one of the better offerings from Paper City.

This is a classic example of one of those BA lowball 3 review where you are trying not to bash the brew, but in reality it simply is not that good of a beer.
In a conversation wioth a drinking buddy today Papaer CIty came up up, within the discussion I realized that this brewery so close is just so far away. So I've decided to give it a chance.
It's simply an average IPA. Average orange color, average hop smell, average fruity bitterness, average drinkabily. It's simply an average craft beer.

On tap at the Harp. Settled with a good, orange-amber appearance with some nice lacing. Spiced citrus aromas were very potent in the smell department, as well as complimentary odors of strong hops. I liked the taste of this one a lot. It was wicked bittersweet; very sharp in its flavors, allowing it to linger on your tongue for awhile. The carbonation was typical and medium-bodied but it really did help in preserving that great taste. Overall, I enjoyed this American IPA a lot.

Orange / gold color with a thin, bubbly white head - very slight haze. Strings of sticky lace and good head retention. Mild floral hoppy aroma with hints of citrus, caramel, and grain...pleasant. Pine hop flavors mix with a spicy earthiness - British hops for sure. Solid, lingering bitterness - sweet, biscuity malts under it all. Crisp, medium body with assertive carbonation and a little dry.
Nicely hoppy and underrated. A pleasant suprise from Paper City.

Gonna be a BIG ipa weekend for me! So I am hoping to work my way back up to full strength and what better way then to try and knock back like 10 differnet IPA's in a weekend. This one was served cold and poured into a pint glass, consumed on 08/22/2009.
Very nice pour here, light amber in color with good clarity. Smooth white head on top to about two inches and settled down slowly on the way. Nice side lacing throughout. Light aroma, not as strong as I would have liked, but well balanced. Light citric hops, and a touch of light bready malts. Very light on the palate without much in the way of a pungent note to it. Light grapefruit touches the lips before it gets washed with light bready malts and fades off without much at all in the way of an aftertaste. Easy to drink with a light body and nice carbonation. Smooth, crisp and sessionable but lacking some depth on the palate.

Serving 12oz bottle
Ample carbonation races upwards through a translucent pale orange/amber body toward a think layer of fine froth. Great amounts of sticky white lacing is left about the glass by the once pillowy white frothy head.
Aromas of dry hops, dry nutty malts, earth play on a slightly muted nose with hints of sweet bread and light honey.
Sweet and nutty for an ipa this offers a bit of sweet malts upfront, melding into drier nutty flavors (brazil nuts) - grainty to a point - in the mid palate toward a dry mildy bitter hoppy finish and aftertaste. The near honey sweetnes and dry nutty flavors are a surprise, but they seem a bit out of style.
Medium bodied with an overall dry mouthfeel, this boasts a twenty second finish featuring pleasant nutty malt and hoppy flavors with a touch of grain. Carbonation is a bit thin resulting in a less than vibrant mouthfeel yet it's not flat or stale.
Just about average doing down for an ipa, odd nutty flavors and graininess keeps drinkability down while a nice dry finish keeps me interested.
Overall this is another enjoyable, solid brew from Paper City, a great local brewery in my book.

Poured a medium copper hue with a one finger foamy white head. There was good retention and lacing.
The smell featured a balanced biscuity grain and peppery hop aroma.
The taste was well balanced as well. A solid malty grain supported a good citrus hop. Mild caramel as well.
The mouthfeel was full.
Overall a nice sessionable AIPA.

Pours a clear orange color with a one finger head that has good retention and nice creaminess. This beer really leaves no lacing behind as I consume it. Smell is pretty hard to pick up but I get only light malts and piney bitterness. Taste is much of the same but a bit stronger and balanced. Piney bitterness, lots of light malts and some citrus. The taste just has no strong point, neither the malts or hops are that spectacular. Mouthfeel is good. Nice light-moderate body with good carbonation and a coat of bitterness. No warming or alcohol to speak of. Drinkability is also good. While this beer does not taste great, its not bad and it is very light on the stomach. Could session this one as much as any other IPA that I can think of. The price is not bad so I wouldn't feel bad doing that.

I pour this chilled sample into my snifter. The beer pours a rich clear amber color and a white fluffy head fades up very easily. The head fades a a solid surface layer that lasts throughout the sampling.
The aroma is mild but exhibits some piney and grassy hops with just a hint of caramel. Dominated by hops.
First sip reveals a beer with average body, creamy texture and mild carbonation. The flavor is mild like the aroma and starts with a quick hit of caramel and quickly rolls to bitey bitter pine hops. This is an easy beer to drink and I get no hint of alcohol anywhere.
A good example of an IPA but the aroma is a little bit mild.

Stories We Like: A Guide to the Comma
(Hebrew: God), the God of Israel in the Old Testament. A plural of majesty, the term Elohim-though sometimes used for other deities, such as the Moabite god Chemosh, the Sidonian goddess Astarte, and also for other majestic beings such as angels, kings, judges (the Old Testament shofetim), and the Messiah-is usually employed in the Old Testament for the one and only God of Israel, whose personal name was revealed to Moses as YHWH, or Yahweh (q.v.). When referring to Yahweh, elohim very often is accompanied by the article ha-, to mean, in combination, "the God," and sometimes with a further identification Elohim hayyim, meaning "the living God."

There are two bands using the name Sloppy Seconds. 1. Sloppy Seconds are a punk rock band from Indianapolis. Their story began in 1985 at a weekend-long house party when singer B.A., bassist Bo'ba Jam, drummer Steve Sloppy, and guitarist Danny Roadkill (later replaced by Ace Hardwhere) set down their beers long enough to massacre a few cover tunes and wake up their neighbors. After a short spell honing their original material and live intensity, the Sloppys released the debut album "Destroyed" in 1990.

Getting on the ship was great, no problems.
Cabin was great, but not very clean. Air Con did not work well, we were always feeling cold.
Butler service was very poor, only saw him once and then on last night he was looking for us so we could tip him.
Entertainment was very poor, in fact we were so board on sea day, we just walked around the deck for most of the morning.
I used the self service option for every meal. Food was good but service was so poor, table never wiped clean, service to clear tables very slow. I will never use the self service option for breakfast ever again. Too many people, no clearing of tables.
Staff at times were very rude, I had overherd a converstion a member of the entertainment team were having with a passage, It was so bad i complained, nothing was done about that member of staff. If i had spoken to a customer in that way, i would have lost my job.
Most of the staff were unfriendly, no greetings, no smile. Even the captain.
The one exception was the staff in the spa.
I would never travel on the Azura again, perhaps i may try a smaller P&O ship.

GRANBURY -- The staccato sounds of construction echoed Thursday through a Granbury neighborhood where tornadoes killed six people and damaged dozens of homes in May.
With the sun straight up, and temperatures hitting 100 degrees, volunteer Eddie Darton could barely hit a nail. But he felt plenty hammered.
"I'm tired," he laughed, as we watched him switch arms to drive nails.
Darton was raising a home with the help of his co-workers from Alcon Labs in Fort Worth. Many tell us they've never done construction.
Despite brutal heat, volunteers are coming from all over to rebuild Granbury's Rancho Brazos neighborhood.
"There were at least 300 hundred out here yesterday," said Brian Donnachie, a board member with Hood County Habitat for Humanity.
On another house Thursday, we saw workers from Chili's in Stephenville, Bank of America in Fort Worth, and Habitat for Humanity out of Waco. They were soaked in sweat.
"I've always said I was going to give back to the community -- help out my neighbors," Darton said.
This was his first time volunteering to build a house.
Crews sawed and hammered on three homes started by Trinity Habitat in Tarrant County. On Saturday, Hood County Habitat will dedicate a repaired home, start five more new ones, and then another eight on Monday, according to Donnachie.
Some Habitat organizations have paid staff. Not Hood County's.
"We have not a paid soul," Donnachie said, "and the amount of volunteers is staggering."
So is the amount of heat.
To be safe, they start at 7:30 a.m. and knock off by 1 p.m. But they want to work fast.
Some families who lost it all in the tornadoes are now looking to Habitat to help them rebuild their lives.

The Graham House
A Historic Home With A Violent Past
The Graham House, on Route 3 and 12 at Lowell, Summers County, West Virginia, is one of the oldest and most historic homes in West Virginia. With the exception of a modern wing at the rear of the dwelling, the Graham House today looks much as it did when it was constructed more than two hundred years ago.
Colonel James Graham (1741-1813) built his cabin between 1770 and 1772 and it served not only as a home for the Graham family, but also as a fortress to protect the settlers from the ever present danger of Indian attack.
In the spring of 1777, Shawnee Indians attacked the Graham House. A friend of the family and Colonel Graham's ten-year-old son were killed. The second child, a seven-year-old daughter, was taken captive. Colonel Graham spent the next eight years searching for this lost daughter. Finally, he rescued her near where Maysville, Kentucky now stands. After trading blankets and trinkets to the Indians, legend has it that Colonel Graham had the shoes on the horses reversed for the journey home, in order to hamper any pursuit by the Indians.
The Graham House, which has survived for more than two centuries, is unique in that it was not the simple log cabin commonly found in the state, but an impressive three-story structure representing the lifestyles of wealthy gentlemen on the Virginia frontier.

What Is Army ROTC
Army ROTC (Reserve Officers' Training Corps) is one of three ways for young men and women to become officers in the United States Army. The three ways are:
- Army ROTC (on over 800 different campuses in the U.S.)
- West Point Military Academy
- OCS (Officer Candidate School) - For those soldiers already in the Army who already have a college degree or are close to completion.
ROTC is one of the best leadership courses in the country and can be a part of your college curriculum. Being a student/cadet at Creighton University, or one of our affiliated campuses, and learning to become a leader will make your college experience even richer. The ROTC program prepares our cadets for leadership in the United States Army after graduation.
Army ROTC is one of the Nation's top leadership programs, with a wide range of benefits. Through Army ROTC you can:
- Get help with your college tuition with an Army ROTC Scholarship
- Gain experience you can't find anywhere else
- Gain the respect of your peers and future employers
- Train to become a Leader and manager
In Army ROTC you will learn to become a leadernot just a person who gives orders but a person who leads by example. Being an Officer in the U.S. Army means you're a counselor, a strategist and a motivator. It's similar to being a vital manager in a corporation. As an Officer, you will lead other Soldiers in all situations and adjust to environments that are always changing. You'll be driven to achieve success with your team on every mission.
Skill Development
The specific skills you receive in Army ROTC will include things like leadership development, military skills and adventure training. This will take place in both the classroom and in the field, but you will have a normal daily schedule like all college students. Army ROTC has two phases: Basic Course and Advanced Course
Learn more about the ROTC Curriculum
Whether you're a college-bound high school student or already attending a college or university, Army ROTC has scholarships available. Scholarships are awarded based on Student's merit and grades, not by financial need
See how to apply for a scholarship
Becoming An Officer
Success Now and in the Future
Army ROTC prepares college students to succeed in any competitive environment. Plus, the leadership training and experiences that you have in Army ROTC will provide you with a foundation to become a commissioned Army Officer upon graduation.
Starting Your Career
After you graduate from college, you will be commissioned as a Second Lieutenant. Your career as an Officer will be just beginning, and you'll find a variety of interesting Officer career fields, called branches, in the Army. Once you choose your Army branch, you will embark on specialized training.
There are 21 different branches to choose from
The Army: It's What You Make It
Upon completion of Officer branch training and a first assignment, Army Officers may pursue additional specialized training and post-graduate education opportunities. You will most likely be assigned to advanced leadership positions and to staff positions. Also, you may develop doctrine, teach military tactics or serve as advisors.

Grades 4-6
In the middle grades at Alabama Waldorf School, the class teacher presents lessons to engage the imagination and feeling life of the child, while activating and encouraging the student's intellectual capacity . The ideal in a Waldorf school is that the same teacher continues with the class from grade to grade, in some cases for all eight years. This affords the class teacher the opportunity to know the students at great depth and to appreciate their individual qualities. The middle gradeds bring structured study to the life of the student. All grades classes begin with a main lesson, two hours that focus on a core subject for a four-week block. The Waldorf approach allows a teacher to meet different learning styles. Students compose main lesson books with illustrations and text that detail each subject. This reinforces learning by having the student actively re-create their lessons. Lower school teachers are trained to meet the intellectual, physical, and emotional readiness of each student, whether or not the student attended a Waldorf preschool. Some activities related to the lower grades curriculum include:
In the fourth grade the children begin to look at their local geography, beginning with where they are in their own classrooms and working out from that familiar place. Through the study of the Norse myths, they experience their own final separation from childhood and begin the long process of standing on their own. The variety of heroes and heroines in the Norse sagas give each student the opportunity to identify with someone; the confidence of these archetypal figures helps the child's own confidence to grow.
In the fifth grade, the student feels solid and secure enough to study a whole nation, to delve into ancient history up through the Greek times. In their study of art, science, government, gymnastics, they enjoy and relate to the perfectly balanced harmony and beauty of the Greek ideals.
In sixth grade, the students delve into the study of the Roman Empire, its greatness, vanity and total collapse. The children of this age value the black and white clarity of Roman law (the basis of our own law today) and can begin to empathize with this time of struggle and growth in humanity's history; they therefore feel that they are not alone in their own inward struggles. As students look out from themselves, Physics, with its own laws and regularity, is introduced as a study of the natural world. The contrasting studies of Mineralogy and Astronomy help the child look below and above where s/he stands, allowing the student to recognize his/her own place on our earth.
Some activities related to the middle grades curriculum include:

5Liberty Ross Wants Rupert Sanders Back
Or, if you're a more casual gossiper, that guy that Kristen Stewart cheated on Robert Pattinson with and his wife are working things out.
From TMZ:
Liberty Ross — the wife of director Rupert Sanders who cheated on her with Kristen Stewart — has already seen a divorce lawyer … TMZ has learned … but her goal is reconciliation.
Sources connected with the couple tell TMZ … although Liberty has lawyered up, her end game is NOT divorce. In fact, Liberty and Rupert have already been to a marriage and family therapist. Our sources say, when they were photographed together on Tuesday in Beverly Hills (above), they were coming out of an office building where they met with the psychologist.
Although Liberty is not wearing her wedding ring, we're told her goal is figuring out why Rupert cheated and getting some sort of assurance he views what he did as a terrible mistake that he won't repeat.
Gross. Rupert Sanders is so gross. At least I can look at Kristen Stewart sometimes and not feel sick to my stomach, but Rupert? He just seems so … gross. Keep in mind that he and Liberty have been together since she was 17 and he was 25, all right? That was 16 years ago. Oh, but sure, fella, go right ahead and go down on the girl from Twilight in broad daylight. In public. Totally. Sounds like a great plan. What a prick.
Here's what I don't get: how could Liberty get over this whole thing? I don't understand how she, or anyone who's been cheated on, especially if there are marriages and children involved, can ever just get over it. Not that I imagine she'll dwell on this everyday for the rest of her life, but wouldn't it come up? And wouldn't it be just so awful? And whenever Rupert did anything, wouldn't there be a twinge of "oh, you're going to the supermarket? Are you sure you're not going to bang Kristen Stewart?" I just don't see how you could ever be able to fully trust that person again and have a good relationship after your partner had an affair. Or went down on sweaty ol' Kristen Stewart in a car.
And their poor kids … his daughter is 7, is that old enough to be a Twihard? Because if so, it's going to suck so, so hard when she goes back to school. God, Rupert Sanders, way to f-ck up everything.
August 9, 2012 at 4:30 am by Emily
5 Responses to "Liberty Ross Wants Rupert Sanders Back"
Some people say they should stay together for the kids; but does that help? She will be doubting him and his actions for a long long time (maybe for the rest of the relationship), which will make her unhappy. Kids feel that. And of course when they grow up they can see the pics of daddy cheating for themselves. Sad. And if he does it with one girl in broad daylight and in cars I highly doubt he is not gonna do it again, apparantly he feels no shame. Not saying people can't change, but this dude takes the cake for shameless ass of the year.
So they got together when he was 25 and she was 17? Shit mate I'm turning 24 this year and I wouldn't touch a 16 year old kid. That age difference isn't that important when you're 35 and the other one is 43, but 17 and 25?? That's like light years away. Of course it looks like it was true love (for a while), because they have been together for years, but it's still really weird and slightly creepy.
Sounds like he has a thing for much younger women, which doesn't bode well.
She wants to reconcile, but divorce lawyer is on standby? What an odd way of handling things.
Typical crap with this type of a guy. Apparently, Liberty has never been on her own. Rupert looks for the type of girl he can control. You cheat on a dependent person & they tolerate it because they have no income, no self-esteem, etc. Rupert is a class act all around – a no class act. Kristen is still young. I'm sure Rupert treated her the same exact way he did his wife when he was trying to get together with her. Men are pigs, women are just stupid to stand by them after they blatantly rub their own wives' noses in it. No consideration for their children either.

More than 100 volunteers from around the country will come together on Sunday, July 7, 2013 for an unprecedented day of community revitalization on Colfax Road in Cleveland.
Greater Cleveland Habitat for Humanity is partnering with Safeguard Properties and Burten, Bell, Carr Development Corporation to rehab vacant homes for new homeowners, help with exterior home repairs for existing residents, remove yard debris and make landscaping improvements.
Safeguard Properties is the largest mortgage field services company in the U.S., headquartered in Valley View, Ohio. Safeguard employs approximately 1,700 people, in addition to a network of thousands of vendors nationally.
"Safeguard Properties is committed to Cleveland and emphasizes community service to its employees and vendors," commented Palmer DePetro, Director of REO Regional Coordinators for Safeguard, and a member of Habitat's Board of Directors. "We are excited to be making a strong contribution to the Colfax Road revitalization effort."
Safeguard's 10th Annual Vendor Conference is being held in Cleveland on July 7- 9. About 100 Safeguard vendors and employees will take time out of their conference schedule to roll up their sleeves for a day of painting, landscaping and repairing homes on Colfax Road. Colfax Road was adopted by Habitat as the site for its 25th Anniversary Initiative to revitalize two streets - Colfax and Clement Avenue in Slavic Village.
"This approach of helping existing residents in addition to rehabbing vacant houses for Habitat families is unprecedented for us in Cleveland," stated John Habat, Executive Director for GCHFH. "We will help about 15 existing residents with improvements such as porch and fence repair, painting, landscaping and debris removal."
Tim Tramble, Executive Director at Burten, Bell, Carr Development Corporation which is spearheading the community development in the Lower Kinsmen area says residents have embraced this project and want to see more Habitat for Humanity homes built for low-income families of the Kinsman community. "We are so grateful to Habitat and Safeguard for all of their support and for making this day happen," said Tramble. "We know our homeowners on Colfax are also grateful for the help in making their environment more beautiful."
Of the homes on Colfax Road currently owned by Habitat, two are available for occupancy now. Families wishing to become home owners through Habitat are encouraged to submit a home ownership application to GCHFH. Information may be found on www.clevelandhabitat.org
Habat noted that funds to rehab houses for new families have been donated by Wells Fargo, Medical Mutual, New York Community Bank Foundation, Thrivent/area Lutheran churches, and others. "The generosity of our financial supporters is amazing," said Habat.

Watercress Soup
The success of this simple soup depends on using the freshest watercress available. Choose the full-grown, thick-stemmed variety; it has more of the green's characteristic bold, peppery flavor.
Published: April 2012 Servings: 10
- 2 tablespoons (1/4 stick) unsalted butter
- 1 medium yellow onion, chopped
- 2 quarts low-salt chicken broth
- 1 pound russet potatoes, peeled, cut into 1/2-inch cubes
- 4 bunches watercress (about 2 pounds), tough stems trimmed, chopped (about 20 cups)
- 1 1/2 teaspoons (or more) fresh lemon juice
- Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
- 1/2 cup chilled heavy cream
- 3 tablespoons finely minced fresh chives, divided
Nutritional Information
One serving contains: Calories (kcal) 120 Fat (g) 7 Saturated Fat (g) 4 Cholesterol (mg) 25 Carbohydrates (g) 12 Dietary Fiber (g) 1 Total Sugars (g) 2 Protein (g) 66 Sodium (mg) 570
PREPARATIONView Step-by-Step Directions
Melt butter in a medium pot over medium heat. Add onion and cook, stirring often, until softened, 5–6 minutes. Add broth and potatoes; bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Reduce heat to medium and simmer, stirring occasionally, until potatoes are tender, about 20 minutes. Remove from heat.
Add watercress to pot; stir until leaves wilt. Let soup cool briefly. Working in batches, purée soup in a blender until smooth. Return soup to same pot. Stir in 1 1/2 tsp. lemon juice. Season to taste with salt, pepper, and more lemon juice, if desired. DO AHEAD: Can be made 8 hours ahead. Cover and chill.
Whisk cream with a pinch of salt in a large bowl until soft peaks form. Fold in 1 1/2 Tbsp. chives.
Rewarm soup gently over low heat. Divide soup among demitasse or small teacups and garnish each cup with a dollop of whipped cream. Sprinkle remaining 1 1/2 Tbsp. chives over.

Advice from the Bon Appétit Test Kitchen
Potted Crab with Meyer Lemon
Fried Almonds
Luscious Chocolate IcingServe this icing spooned over cake or ice cream.
Easter Ham with Golden Breadcrumbs and Madeira SauceThe truth is, you can use any supermarket bone-in ham for this recipe, or buy a half ham and cut the recipe accordingly. But considering the holiday occasion, it's worthwhile to get the best cured, smoked, bone-in ham you can find. Special-order one from your butcher or from dartagnan.com (we love the applewood-smoked version).
Horseradish VinaigretteUse this dressing to punch up sturdy greens such as escarole or radicchio.
Crunchy Breadcrumb Dressing with PrunesTo make the breadcrumbs, tear up a day-old baguette or some crusty country bread and pulse it in a food processor until the crumbs are coarse. If you end up with more than you need, freeze the surplus in an airtight container.
