Remember Me
Top quality medical careTo the editor: My husband and I want to applaud many of the doctors in the U.P. First, the doctors involved with NorthStar Health System Hospital have been attentive
'Thank you'To the editor: On behalf of the Ladies Auxiliary of Tufts Rondon VFW 2891, Crystal Falls, I want to thank everyone who came out and supported our efforts to make our first Father's Day breakfast buffet a huge success.
'With our utmost gratitude'To the editor: On behalf of Jim Johnson and I, we wish to express our heartfelt thanks to the Stambaugh American Legion Reino Post 21 and Commander Gary Lane for sponsoring us at the "Riders for Veterans" celebration on Saturday, May 25, in honor of Memorial Day. It certainly was a great tribute! The "Riders for Veterans" presented each of us a wonderful plaque dedicating the 2013 Veteran Tribute Ride to our World War II and Korean veterans. It reads as follows: "When you go home, tell them of us, and say for your tomorrow, we gave our today." We can't thank you enough; you will never be forgotten!-s- Don J. McDonaldIron River
'Too close for comfort'To the editor: Just think! "Daddy there's a puppy by the door. It looks like a German Sheppard puppy." When in fact it was a wolf pup!
Fight invasives! Use boat wash!To the editor: Hagerman Lake received federal funding for a boat wash, which was installed this past fall at the boat launch.
The purpose of a boat wash is to keep invasive species, such as Eurasian watermilfoil, zebra muscles, rusty crayfish, Chinese mystery snail, spiny water fleaand curly-leaf pondweed, from infecting the lake. These species move from lake to lake by attaching themselves to boats, motor propellers, live wells and trailers. An invasion of any of these species can render a lake "dead" in just a few years, making recreation swimming, boating, skiing and fishing impossible. So far, Hagerman Lake has not had any invasive species. However, many of the local lakes have experienced the problems and expense these pests can cause. Michigan state law states that it is illegal to launch a boat and motor with an invasive species attached. When you launch and or take out your boat, please use the wash which is free and only takes three minutes. Easy to use instructions are located by the boat wash. Thank you for your cooperation.-s- Carol FrantzHagerman Lake'50 helped at work bee'To the editor: On May 18, the Iron County Museum conducted its annual work bee. The purpose of the work bee is to prepare the museum campus for the start of the new visitor-events season. About 50 members of the community, museum board members, spouses and student volunteers from the West Iron County High School Key Club and National Honor Society spent a day scrubbing, dusting, vacuuming, spit-polishing and generally cleaning the inside and outside of the many buildings on the museum campus. It totaled over 200 volunteer man-hours to accomplish the goal. Following the cleaning, the volunteers enjoyed a wonderful lunch donated by Jim and Dallas Duda at Zippidy's in Iron River. On behalf of the Iron County Museum's Board of Trustees, I want to extend our appreciation to the many volunteer adults and students, Zippidy's and Jeanne Bonetti, who coordinated the volunteer assignments. Because of all the hard work and effort, the museum was made ready for the 2013 season!-s- Bill LeonoffBoard President'Did $$ go into black hole?'To the editor: I think it is about time that Iron River city officials come forth with some truthful answers on how much city funds went into Apple Blossom Apartments (old Central School). When people have asked the above question time and time again, different answers have been given! The next question is the money that was spent; will it ever be recovered by the city, or did it go into a big black hole? You would like to think that everything is on the up and up, but the questions that have been asked are not answered with any satisfaction. It appears to be beat-around-the-bush time! Taxpayers are entitled to know if tax dollars were used wisely or mishandled or if improprieties exist! If answers are not given in common terms that most people would understand, I would want an independent party with financial expertise to come up with what happened to all those tax dollars. The public has the absolute right to know.-s- Curt SoderbloomIron RiverWest Side vets seek donationsTo the editor: The West Side Veterans Council is soliciting contributions from local businesses to cover the cost of the Memorial Day parade, Fourth of July parade and the Fourth of July fireworks. Any personal contributions will also be accepted and appreciated and can be mailed to the following address: West Side Veterans Council, P.O. Box 433, Iron River, MI 49935.-s- Don WolfAdjutant, W.S.V.C.'Thanks for bake sale support'To the editor: Thanks to all the bakers and buyers who contributed to the success of our annual bake sale. It's the support of our community that makes it possible for us to continue our efforts to preserve the history of theAlpha/Mastodon area, and it is very much appreciated. -s- Alpha Historical Museum Board of Directors, Sharon Eaton, Secretary/TreasurerThanks to speakerTo the editor: The West Side Veterans Council would like to thank the honorable Dr. Dan Benishek, congressman of the 1st Congressional District, for being our Memorial Day guest speaker and all those who came out to participate in and to observe our 2013 Memorial Day ceremonies.-s- Don WolfI.C.W.S.V.C.

Raisin was already on the good news last night.
For the second consecutive year Coach Ben Howland will have a NPOY in his incoming recruiting class. Last year it was of course this week's SI cover boy, this year it is none other than our local kid Jruuuuuuuuuuuuuuue Holiday. From the Daily News:
Holiday, who led the Vikings to three state championships in four seasons, including the Div. IV title this year, will receive his award this afternoon at a ceremony on campus.
The 6-foot-3 guard averaged 25.4 points, 11.2rebounds, 6.4assists, 4.4 steals and 2.4 blocks per game this year for the Vikings, his last before joining UCLA next season.
He's just the second player in area history to surpass 2,600 career points, finishing with 2,666. Mitchell Butler, who played at Oakwood of North Hollywood, scored 2,682points over his career.
It's the second consecutive year a high school player who signed with UCLA has received the boys' award. Last season's honoree was freshman center Kevin Love.
Two-time NBA All-Star Baron Davis, a UCLA recruit out of Santa Monica Crossroads, received the award in 1997.
"It's a terrific honor, a very special honor to be recognized as national player of the year," UCLA Coach Ben Howland said. "I'm excited for Jrue and his family because it's a great accomplishment. He led his team to another state championship, so he had a great year."
The award is based not only on outstanding athletic performance but also high standards of academic achievement and exemplary character on and off the court.

So I made progress on my sock and started on the heel. Unfortunately, I got two rounds into the heel when I realized that I had made a mistake. It looked really weird and I can't describe it. I didn't take a picture!
So I had to tink, or unknit for those not hip with knitting lingo, two rows! It was a challenge as I had not had to tink so many stitches before. So I worked carefully backward. I did find that listening to the video on the Grand Canyon that SU had gotten from the library was nice, although, helped.
Today, I started to work on the heel, but before I did that I reviewed what I had on the needle to ensure that things were correct. They were not. I had dropped a stitch. I fixed that. Then I found that when I fixed the dropped stitch I didn't quite get it all the way back up, so I had to bring that dropped stitch up one more row.
Finally, things now look right, but I'll let it rest for a few before trying again.
This seems to be good practice for me on recovering from a knitting mistake! Whew!
Oh, and the progress, all lost!

(WMC-TV) - Memphis police are on the hunt for a violent rape suspect who is accused of attacking a woman near a busy intersection.
Police said they've gotten several tips after releasing a composite Wednesday.
Investigators are following up on all of them, but have not yet gotten a break in the case.
Everyone in the area of Germantown Parkway at Dexter Road is on the lookout.
"Well, I hope they catch him very soon, " said concerned resident Cynthia Jones.
Investigators said a 19-year-old woman was walking in the area between 11:15 p.m. and 3:40 a.m. on December 14.
Then a stranger driving a 90's model, dark-colored, 4-door Honda Accord forced her into his car, took her to another location, and physically and sexually assaulted her.
She got away, and helped investigators develop a composite sketch of her attacker.
There have not been any arrests yet.

Greensburg Daily News
Greensburg —
National and local history came to life Friday afternoon around the Decatur County Courthouse, as Greensburg Community High School (GCHS) students gathered on the south lawn, awaiting the arrival of "Robert F. Kennedy."
In 1968, Kennedy stopped in Greensburg as part of short-lived presidential campaign. On a gorgeous, sunny Friday afternoon, May 3, 2013, at 12:55 p.m. — 45 years to the minute — student re-enactor Riley Burkert rode around the courthouse square in the same convertible that carried the RFK himself into town all those years gone.
Accompanying Berkert around the Courthouse square was Stephen Shaffer, a 1974 GCHS graduate and a lifelong public servant of both the US House of Representatives and the US Department of the Interior. Shaffer was in attendance at Kennedy's 1968 Greensburg appearance and, following Berkert's re-enactment of Kennedy's 1968 speech. rounded out the afternoon with a keynote address.
GCHS History Teacher John Pratt, who coordinated the event alongside students of his Junior History courses, admitted that the text of Berkert's speech wasn't exact, but rather, as close as possible based on documents from the JFK Presidential Library and accounts of the day from the Greensburg Daily News.
Pratt also revealed that the re-enacted speech's student audience displayed signs that were identical to ones used by students on that day 45 years ago.
Berkert's address was like a reminder of the old saying, "the more things change, the more they stay the same." The politician's 1968 speech, as re-enacted by Berkert, was riddled with anxiety over the plight of America's working and middle classes, with condemnation of the Vietnam War and with America's allegedly deteriorating status as a leader in world economics and military defense. The speech, displaying perhaps Kennedy's awareness of his audience, also made several references to the plight of America's farming community.
Afterward, Shaffer credited RFK's 1968 Greensburg speech with changing his life, with opening his eyes to the importance and relevance of history in current affairs, and with leading to his career in public service. Shaffer also referenced the oft-repeated saying, "Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it."
Indeed, Pratt agreed that many of the anxieties and issues facing current-day America could easily be juxtaposed into the re-enacted speech. In that way, he said, the re-enactment is important in helping drive home to students — to anyone who cares to learn — the relevance of history in serving as blueprint for current and future political and economic struggles.

Eighth-graders across the country slightly improved their basic science skills over the past two years, but about seven out of 10 still were not considered "proficient" on a national test, and experts worried about what the results said about American competitiveness.
Two-thirds of eighth-grade students performed at or above a "basic" achievement level on a national science assessment test, suggesting at least a "partial mastery of the knowledge and skills needed for proficient work," according to The National Assessment of Educational Progress.
"We didn't know what to expect with a test like this," said Stephaan Harris, spokesman for the National Assessment Governing Board, the independent board that sets NAEP policy. "Overall, there was improvement and gains."
The average eighth-grade score increased two points, from 150 in 2009 to 152 in 2011, according to the NAEP. The test is scored on a 300-point scale. The assessment was released Thursday.
Among assessment findings:
- 32 percent of students performed at or above "proficient" and 2 percent performed at an "advanced" level, Harris said. The NAEP defines "proficient" as showing "solid academic performance."
- Black and Hispanic students showed more improvement than white students, narrowing but not eliminating the achievement gap, Harris said. Hispanic students scored a five-point gain, while black students scored three points higher compared to 2009 results.
- The gender gap remained unchanged, with male students scoring five points higher on average than female students.
Read the NAEP's complete Science 2011 findings
"The gains are encouraging, but the racial and gender gaps show a cause for concern," David Driscoll, chairman of the National Assessment Governing Board, said in a statement. "In order to compete in globally competitive and expanding fields like technology and medicine, we must make sure we give our students the tools necessary to excel in an important subject area."
Gerry Wheeler, interim head of the National Science Teachers Association, described the gains as "minuscule," according to The Associated Press.
"When you consider the importance of being scientifically literate in today's global economy, these scores are simply unacceptable," the AP quoted Wheeler as saying Thursday.
Watch the Top Videos on msnbc.com
More than 120,000 eighth-graders from 7,300 schools nationwide participated in the exam last year. According to the assessment analysis, of the 47 states that participated, 16 showed a small increase in their science scores over 2009's results. Most states stayed flat, the study showed.
The assessment also found that students who performed daily hands-on science activities scored higher on average than students who performed them less frequently. The 2011 science assessment test measured knowledge and abilities in physical science, life science, and earth and space sciences.

Yesterday, faithful readers pointed out that Liza Colby is actually a character from the television soap opera All My Children. But here's a little tidbit that Mary Worth fans will be able to relate to. In 1994, Liza Colby looked like this.
But since 2009, Liza Colby has looked like this.
It's not really a big deal -- Here at Mountview Hospital, Liza Colby has already changed her face three times.

OLT Max Starks' return to a prominent role on the offensive line was one of the season's pleasant surprises for the Steelers but his future with the club is uncertain for multiple reasons. Not only is Starks slated to be an unrestricted free agent, but he suffered an anterior cruciate ligament injury in the season-ending loss to Denver. With ORT Willie Colon to return after missing all but one game in 2011 with a torn triceps, rookie Marcus Gilbert could be an option at left tackle, a daily team observer told PFW. Re-signed in October, Starks stepped back into the lineup at left tackle and played well for a line that had no shortage of injury concerns. "He was probably one of our more consistent players, because he lasted the entire season once he came back, and especially on our O-line, that says a lot because of all the turnover with injuries," OL Trai Essex told reporters this week. Added Essex, also a free agent: "I know he is devastated going into a free-agency year, but he will bounce back like he always does."

JK Rowling's Thank You to PottermoreNews
J.K. Rowling has penned a thank you note to her staff at Pottermore. The letter was written through TH_NK, who released a photo of it on Instagram (and can be seen below). TH_NK added artistic touch to the photo by blurring the edges. However, the letter is not entirely legible. The letter is written on J.K. Rowling's usual letter head, and dated October 21. Hypable reports that the letter reads:
"This is a shamefully overdue, but nevertheless huge – indeed, Hagrid-sized – THANK YOU to the Pottermore team for their extraordinary work," Rowling wrote. "I know how much time and effort it took to get the site up and running, and the result is truly magnificent. I've had rave reviews from all sides; a friend of mine (Hufflepuff, maple and phoenix feather wand, tweleve inches, rigid) called me two nights ago to complain that she only won five house points so far. She's forty four. Naturally, I told her to work harder."
The letter goes on for another paragraph or two, but the photo begins to get blurry. "I'm hoping to say thank you in person before long," reads one sentence. "Please accept my heartfelt gratitude," says another. "A site that outstripped my wildest expectations," is the last bit we can work out.
Thank you to the Pottermore tumblr page for posting the picture!

If you're short on time and it works better for you to split your routine into several short workouts throughout the day, don't worry that you won't burn as many calories or get good results. The key is to find a schedule that works for you. The only time to worry about continuous exercise versus short bouts of exercise is if you're training for a specific competition or sport where you may need continuous exercise to prepare your body.

One of Nashville's newest neighborhoods, 12South is the up-and-coming place to live and socialize. With the city investing in sidewalks and street lighting, 12South has begun to take shape over the last several years. You can grab coffee, score some new guitar strings, stock up on garden mulch, and grab a bite to eat all in the course of an afternoon on foot.
Start a unique shopping adventure at Katy K's Ranch Dressing, a one-of-a-kind boutique that offers great vintage finds such as Manuel suits and spangled gowns by Nudie's of Hollywood. Crammed into this tiny store, customers can look through designer cowboy boots, belt buckles, cowboy hats, and Western shirts – all cleverly called "Ranch Dressing." You know you are there when you see the shapely cowgirl cutout on the building's stone façade.
Next, head to MODA Boutique, voted "Best Place to Buy Jeans" by the Nashville Scene. MODA is an eclectic, elegant boutique that features Modern, Original, Distinctive Apparel and Accessories. Stop by and see what all the buzz is about.
Just down the street, hit Imogene + Willie, Nashville's first and only custom jeans store. Housed in an old gas station, Imogene + Willie has become a local hangout for visiting celebrities from Gwyneth Paltrow to ZZ Top's Billy Gibbons. Jeans are made on the premises, and when customers buy a pair of the signature five-pocket mid-rises, they can get their fit customized the same day.
Shop for trendy clothes and accessories at Serendipity Emporium or for music and music accessories at the Corner Music Store. After walking around this charming neighborhood, pamper yourself in one of the chic salons like Trim Classic Barber or Green Pea Salon.
Walk next door to tHE aRT hOUSE Gallery & Studio, a great source for local fine art. They offer monthly art exhibitions and a variety of studio art classes for adults as well as a selection of unique gift items. Or stroll down the street to Snow Gallery that features talented local artists and ever changing exhibits.
Mafiaoza's Pizzeria & Neighborhood Pub is located in the heart of the 12South district, and it fits right into the bustling neighborhood. With the slogan "Welcome to the Family," you know you'll feel at home in this Godfather-themed restaurant.
Next door to Mafiaoza's is 12South Taproom, the quintessential friendly neighborhood hangout. It has 22 different beers on tap, an eclectic menu which includes hummus, oysters on the half shell, a jerk chicken sandwich, and shrimp tacos as well as a great lineup of live music. Enjoy the décor of Hatch Show Poster motifs, artwork painted on table tops, and wall designs fashioned from beer bottle caps, or when the weather is nice, sit out on the outdoor patio.
A must-do while strolling through 12South is a visit to Las Paletas. An authentic Mexican popsicle shop, Las Paletas makes fruit and vegetable popsicles from old family recipes. Stripped bare of any accessories, two stand-alone freezers separate the customers from the two sisters who own the shop, and a chalkboard with the flavors of the day is the only menu in the store. Don't be afraid to try unusual flavors like avocado, corn or hot chocolate (chocolate with hot peppers!).
One of 12South's busiest restaurants is Burger Up. This upscale burger joint brings a menu of burgers, salads, soups and appetizers made from as many locals ingredients as the owners can get their hands on, with their prized ingredient (local beef) coming straight from the Triple L Ranch in Franklin. A few doors down, you will find Sloco Sandwiches, the latest endeavor from Tayst executive chef Jeremy Barlow: a quick lunch option with a focus on high quality, local, and in-season ingredients.
Across the street is another quality barbeque joint to add to Nashville's roster: Edley's Bar-B-Que. Uniting the meat-and-three with a traditional barbeque restaurant, this fast casual eatery serves up smoked pork, chicken, turkey, brisket, ribs, wings, and much more. Their large patio is an ideal place to grab a bite and get immersed in the busy 12South neighborhood.
Housed on an old car wash site, Urban Grub features a menu filled with several different cuisines from Southern-style seafood and a raw bar with oysters, a charcuterie menu, and Latin dishes complete with tacos and enchiladas.

Today's weather forecast: A Brief Respite
Look out photo enthusiasts, MOPLA is invading Los Angeles. MOPLA doesn't cause itching or redness and you don't need to get any ointment. It stands for Month of Photography Los Angeles, and it includes events, shows, and discussions held all over the city. I'm personally looking forward to Instagram Jam, MOPLA's first annual Instagram show that is promising to have work from such Los Angeles magazine contributors as Frank Ockenfels, Joe Pugliese, Sian Kennedy, and Justin Fantl. (It's at Graffiti House on April 12th). I'm also dying to see Tabitha Soren's show 'Running.' I'm told the iconic former MTV V-Jay is quite an accomplished photographer (That one's at Kopelkin Gallery on April 13th). MOPLA, if loving photography is wrong, I don't want to be right.
Above: Top, Frank Ockenfels. Bottom, Tabitha Soren.

Groton tattoo artist Steve Tefft will be among the four finalists in Tuesday's season finale of Ink Master, a reality competition show on Spike TV.
The show pits artists against each other in weekly elimination challenges. The winner will be named after a two-hour finale that ends with a one-hour live segment. Along with the title of Ink Master, the winner gets $100,000 and a feature story in Inked magazine.
Tefft, the owner of 12 Tattoos on Long Hill Road in Groton, was chosen from among thousands of applicants as one of the 16 tattoo artists to compete in the show's second season. His work has been among the judges favorites throughout the season.
Tuesday's finale starts at 9 p.m. and the live segment starts at 10 p.m. One of the contestants will be eliminated in the live portion of the finale based on votes for tattoos at the Ink Master website.

3.46/5 rDev +11.6%
Bought as part of Dundee's Ales & Lagers Seasonal Pack from Southtown Beverage on 4/26/13. Case price was $ 17.99.
poured from a 12 oz bottle into a nonic. Served at cool Temp.
appearance: light amber with a one finger head. Nice lacing.
aroma: faint with a slight earthy hoppiness.
mouthfeel: thinnish..
taste: bready with a touch of diacetyl and a real earthy taste.
notes: servicable, true to style.

2.6/5 rDev -16.1%
A- slightly hazy copper with a small white head leaving lots of lace
S- bread, berries, grass, dried fruit, toffee. It seems like these should work but it comes through as a muddled sweet smells mess
T-similar to the nose but fruitier with a bit of bubblegum character.
M- fairly thin and prickly. The dryness keeps the toffee and fruit flavors from coming through as sweet but there's not enough bitterness to balance. Finishes with a metallic toffee flavor.
O- a pretty poor attempt at the style. A muddled mix of something that I wouldn't recognize as overly British.

2.6/5 rDev -16.1%
Poured cold from the bottle.
This beer poured a slightly hazy gold/amber colour with a ead that disappeared right away. There's really not much to the smell at all; a little bit of a wheat/yeast maybe. A very pronounced wheat taste that is not the most pleasing. Pretty much a craft-beer version of Bud Light...
Would I buy it again? Absolutely not.

Pours a pale hazed copper orange hue with a bright white head forming thick and dwindling down at a moderate pace. Aroma has a pleasant rolling biscuit malt profile with hints of apricot spread, citrus, and herbacous leaves. Flavor is a clean drinking session English style pale ale. Light bodied last carbonation slight oily mouthfeel nothing bad to say.

12 oz bottle.
Pours a medium amber with a large, frothy, off-white head.
Aroma: a bit unpleasant: musty and earthy. {a 2nd tasting in Jan. 2012 had a mildly pleasant aroma, with no musty aspect - rating adjusted accordingly].
Initially, the flavor is quite subtle, but a good malty mix comes in mid-taste and lingers. Some hop presence, although less than suggested by the aroma.
M: light-medium body; good carbonation; admirably smooth.
O - a decent if unexceptional English PA, with one sample marred by a rather poor aroma.

Big slightly off white head slow recedes above a clear bright golden well carbonated beer.
Light lightly roasted grain malts lend an earthiness to the aroma.
Light grain malts taste with just a bit of grassiness or something similar to that coming through as well.
A light dry aftertaste without much taste of anything hanging around with this light bodied beer.
A very light beer without a unpleasant aftertaste like a lot of lighter American beers have.

for the style, well above average appearance, with a sturdy white head, some good lacing that dissipates after a few minutes...dark blonde beauty. nose has a wonderful freshness of light malts and hops...very balanced. nothing complex, but that's not part of the style. so far, so good. refreshing. bold. this is where the taste ups the ante. again, complexity not at play, but there's a perfect balance of malt graininess and hop presence. if anything, if i was doing a blind taste test, i would think this was an ESB. full bodied, plenty to taste. an all-around anytime brew that i could easily session alone or with good pub fare. i can't help but laugh at how folks rate some beers so severely. remember the style. the pale ale isn't an ipa

Pours unexpectedly light in color -- pale gold. Average head, and a solid semblance of lacing, as well. Not bad.
Nose is malty. Seems almost adjunct and lagery somehow. Not so impressive.
Taste is sweet and malty, with a little more body than a typical lager, thankfully. Not much complexity, though, and the hops (supposedly Columbus and Cascade) are steamrolled by the sweet malts. This one seems a little flat to me, and isn't one I'd recommend.

It's got a nice head, that's got to count for something. The beer itself is a slightly copper colored ginger ale looking liquid. The head is a couple fingers of different sized white bubbles. Thick and fluffy, it's got powerhouse retention and killer lace.
I tried and tried and tried to pick up some sort of scent, but there isn't much there. I think I detected something cracker-like, but I can't be positive.
It tastes like what I imagine dirty water would taste like. It's possibly got some imitation Noble hop variety and maybe even some ginger, but it really does taste like what I think dirty water tastes like.
Has kind of a faux savory feel. Either that or it's just beer gone bad, can't really tell. It gives me a bit of a pucker in the finish which I why I thought ginger might be in it.
Pretty bad beer. Not easy to get down. Better off avoiding this one.

Poured from a brown 12 oz. bottle. Has a deep golden color with a 1/2 inch head. Smell is malty and somewhat sweet. Taste is mild, malts up front, some biscuty notes, very lightly hopped. Feels medium bodied in the mouth and overall is a decent beer.

From the 12 fl. oz. bottle sampled on November 18, 2011. It has a handsome looking medium amber pour with lively carbonation that leads to a long-lasting head and loads of lacing. The aroma has vague malts, slightly bolder hops, but a lot of bread and biscuit. The body is thin to medium. There is an odd sort of Capryclic acidity in it with a faint sweet malt-sharp bitter balance. It was not what I had hoped. That English water really makes the difference.

Date/ Code: -
This was in the mixed 12 'Craft Pack' I found at Wegmans in Mechanicsburg, PA for around $13.00.
Look: Poured a cleer light amber color. Some carbonation with a tiny white film on top for a head.
Smell: I definitely picked up on some English Pale Ale characteristics in the nose. The aroma had that distinctive malt that is common to other English styles I've had. There was also a biscuit quality.
Taste: First were some standard malts with some dryness. Middle was a little bready and then the palate went completely clean with a slight chemical aftertaste of chlorine or something along those lines.
I didn't find this to be that great. There are so many others that blow this out of the water. Although the price is low, I would still prefer a Saranac or Sierra Nevada Pale Ale which are both in the same price range in my area (PA).

DC Dance Collective is on a mission: to open the world of dance to everyone. And it takes that seriously—low-income dancers are encouraged to volunteer at the front desk in exchange for class credits. This communal spirit of creative exercise and collaboration realizes the dream of founder Nancy Newell, whose impressive 49-year dance career includes curating two Smithsonian series based on tap.
Dance Studio Life rightly describes DCDC as "an anomaly among studios in its region for both its collective approach and its vast offerings." In the lobby, which "feels more like a living room," the friendly instructors welcome people of all ages and backgrounds to pick from an eclectic assortment of dance styles, ranging from classics such as tap, ballet, and jazz to diverse styles such as hula, salsa, flamenco, belly dance, and Sri Lankan dance.

After years of training, she opened Step By Step Dance Studio, where her experience as a late-blooming dancer renders her uniquely suited to teach aspiring dancers of all ages and abilities. She and a staff of seasoned dancers lead private and group lessons in a variety of styles, including Ballroom, Swing, Latin, Two-Step, Argentine Tango, Salsa, and Line Dance. and Line Dance. They strive to create a social, supportive community among their students, hosting dance parties, dancing outings, and city-wide dance events that bring swing dancing and ballroom dancing back to the center of social gatherings.

With tent grounds and cabins available for groups, David invites guests and their kin to stay and deepen their appreciation for the environment by hiking the area's myriad trails or renting a canoe or a rowboat for a leisurely float on Saddle Lake's blue sun-speckled waters.
When he's not collaborating with Debbie Allan or with director Marty Thomas on music videos, Tamarr Paul stars as one-sixth of Rhythm Dance & Fitness Studios' decorated staff. Mirrored walls reflect the studio's honey-colored floors and the funky moves that emerge in dance classes. Beginning Hip-Hop pairs prancers with a new song and full choreography in each session, and Cardio Hip-Hop promises to elicit sweat droplets from the most advanced dancers. Urban Burlesque sends students sauntering through jazz moves. If the full schedule of drop-in dance classes isn't enough, experienced hot-footers can enlist in the Rhythm Dance Company, whose performers use their energetic shimmies to power the county's schools.

Twelve miles of trails wind through this 187-acre ridgetop garden above the city zoo. It's home to over 6000 species of both native and exotic plants and trees, and offers easy walks any time of year.
A few Sundays a year, Portland closes off certain streets to motor vehicles so cyclists (especially families) can ride without worrying about cars. Food, entertainment and bike-themed booths too.
More than 20 excellent rotating taps in a simple 'biercafé' with sidewalk seating. Attached to one of the city's best bottle shops, which sells over 1200 beers (!) and offers a small cash discount.
Owned by Rogue Breweries but serves a whopping 62 guest taps – and an eclectic mix to boot. Decent pub-fare food, too. Located in an echoey east-side warehouse space; sit in the patio on warm days.
All-ages music venue in the heart of hip Hawthorne Blvd, good for live rock, reggae, punk, pop, metal and country music. Intimate stage, high balcony and 21-and-over section for the legal boozehounds.
Artsy-industrial atmosphere on busy E Burnside; check out its large visible roaster. A bit too hipster-y for some, and service can be spotty, but most of the beans are well (and lightly) roasted.
Gorgeous, high-end designer shoes for both women and men, with knowledgeable service personnel to go along. You'll need a very fat wallet, but you won't get better-quality shoes. Nice handbags too.
About 10 miles south of downtown Portland are these water slides and indoor wave pool. There's also a climbing wall (extra cost), along with adults-only hot tub. Hours vary widely, so call ahead.
Located in Oregon City, about a half-hour drive from downtown Portland, is this outfitter that offers kayak rentals, instruction and tours, plus stand-up paddleboarding (SUP) on the Willamette.
The Pacific Northwest offers endless rugged beauty, and on this small-group tour from Portland, you'll explore the gorgeous waterfalls of Columbia Gorge, admire views of wet forests, spot wildlife like eagles and osprey, and tour the vineyards of several wineries, with wine tastings included.
Great spectator fun, where homemade, non-motorized vehicles (from Mr Potato Head models to aerodynamic speedsters) swoosh down Mt Tabor's sinewy road, driven by costumed contestants.
Dive-bar-ish and, well, different, the Tugboat is on the periphery of the shabby Old Town and has an English front parlor feel to its small interior lined with bookshelves and jovial locals.
Amtrak serves Chicago, IL ($237, two days, two daily), Oakland, CA ($69, 18 hours, one daily), Seattle, WA ($28, 3½ hours, four daily) and Vancouver, BC ($42, four hours, two daily).
One of Alberta St's most whimsical and eclectic clothing stores. Screen-printed T-shirts, sundresses, woolen hats, patterned socks, jewelry, onesies for babies and more (even for the guys).
Almost nightly stripper shows (Monday is karaoke) catering to men. Mixed crowd, cheap drinks, potential groping and muscled dancers, so bring plenty of dollar bills and expect a wild time.

Five Basic Rules in Industrial Contracts
Computer Software Policy
The Computer Software Policy requires State University of New York and Research Foundation (RF) employees to notify their campuses of software they develop and covers the various aspects of ownership, administration and promotion of such computer software.
Copyright Policy
The Copyright Policy identifies staff and University rights to copyright and publish written works.
Patents and Inventions Policy
Intends to ensure that the public receives the benefit of all inventions made by persons working in State University facilities.
The Bayh-Dole Act of 1980
The Bayh-Dole Act of 1980 found at Title 35, United States Code, Section 200, provides for the transfer of ownership regarding federally funded research. Where inventions are made at universities pursuant to federally funded research projects, the federal government permits inventions to be owned by universities or their research corporations (the federal government does retain some rights however). The universities are permitted to nonexclusively or exclusively license the "Bayh-Dole" inventions to other parties. Although the federal government rarely uses the right, it does by this law retain "March-in" rights to license the invention to a third party, without the consent of the patent holder or licensee, where it determines the invention is not being made available to the public on a reasonable basis.
U.S. patent law
U.S. patent law provides that ownership of a patent initially resides with the inventors listed on the patent. The law further states that inventorship only includes individuals who have contributed an inventive concept – either an idea or reduction to practice – to a claim of the patent. Funding a research project at the university does not qualify as inventorship (merely a request or payment of services), and furthermore, any sponsored research agreement cannot call for the assignment of inventions in a manner contrary to New York State Law.

Union janitors to return to City Hall, with less pay

The City Council will do anything to ensure the fat cats and the developers get all the money that they can get.
on Jun 28, 2013 at 11:50 am
The janitors can forage for food among the 125 trees bearing apricots, figs, avocados, peaches, apples, oranges and plums.
on Jun 28, 2013 at 2:26 pm
I don't really care if the Janitors are union or non-union.. As stewards of our tax dollares and as such, do your job.
Best choice ? Check out the SEIU... it is a socialist (communist?) front organization, and what ever the City Fathers and Mothers do, it should NOT be to crawl into bed with the SEIU..
Google SEIU and learn about their ideaology...

|Kaufman benefit set Nov. 16
|Thursday, November 07, 2013 9:00 PM
Information Submitted
KALIDA — A benefit is planned for Luke Kaufman, Kalida, on Saturday, Nov. 16, at the Kalida K of C Hall. Luke is 17 years old and has had two kidney transplants and is awaiting a liver transplant. He has had numerous hospital admissions this year.
Family and friends of Luke's family are planning this benefit to assist with medical expenses related to multiple hospitalizations and an upcoming liver transplant.
Luke was born Feb. 27, 1996, and diagnosed with Auto Recessive Polycystic Kidney Disease (ARPKD).
Luke also has Congenital Hepatic Fibrosis with Esophageal Varices, which is a liver disease that accompanies his kidney disease.
On Jan. 30, 2001, Luke received a donated kidney. The following year, Luke had his spleen removed. In addition, he has had pancreatitis, mycoplasma pneumonia and many other unidentified infections.
On July 25, 2012, Luke received a second kidney transplant from Kendra, his non-related, living donor.
On Dec. 31, 2012, Luke became suddenly ill. He had septic shock with multi-system failure. He was on a ventilator, dialysis and every type of support they could do for him in ICU at Nationwide Children's Hospital.
On Feb. 12, 2012, Luke again was admitted in septic shock. This time, no source was identified. In June, it was decided Luke needed a biliary stent placed to help drain the bile. This was done in Cincinnati Children's Hospital, where his family was told on Aug. 8 that Luke needs a liver transplant.
Luke has been evaluated at both Cincinnati Children's Hospital and the Children's Hospital of Pittsburgh and is now on both transplant lists awaiting transplant.
The benefit itself will be a fun-filled day beginning with a 5K race at 10 a.m. (registration begins at 9 a.m.), followed by the OSU football game, a pork loin dinner from 4-7 p.m, music, auctions and raffles. Food and refreshments will be available throughout the day.
