2.4/5 rDev -19.5%
22oz bottle. "5.75 abv., bottle conditioned. Bottled on 7/22/11".
Hellroaring huh? Hellroaring Basin is one of the better areas of Whitefish Mountain (aka Big Mountain) Resort, #2 to Big Sky as far as MT ski resorts go. Odd coincidence, I guess.
Pours a ruddy brown tint with a soft white head. Nice looking beer.
Aroma shows sweetish toffee, toasted biscuit malt, and a noticeable metallic presence.
Starts well with some bready malt and aggressive earthy hops before a disasterous hit of plastic runs through, killing any enjoyment of the flavor. Finish is an odd combination of asprin-like bitterness and metallic flavor.
Mouthfeel is decent. Medium-bodied and carbonated on the medium to low side, which works fine.
I picked up a bottle of this because I'd had this on tap several times previously and thought it one of Lone Peak's better beers. Grabbing a refrigerated bottle in Big Sky gave me a sense of false security, I guess. My advice, get a growler if possible. If not, go with a more durable beer like the Hippy Highway Stout. This bottle was poor (to put it mildly).

This is another growler that I picked up in Big Sky and shared with the Boise specialists.
Pour is a little darker than expected amber..
Aroma more than a tad "American" for the style.. slight spicy hops.. with a fair amount of citric hops... nose is very toasty.. seems a little out of whack.. I would expect more yeasty elements and to have the toasty malt elements dialed in a bit.. the American hops seem out of place.
Flavor mirrors the aroma except with a much more pronounced toasty maltiness... descent malt sweetness and still I want a bit of British yeastiness... the "C" hops are still to prevalent and should be dialed back a bunch for the style.. Body and carbonation are pretty good..
I honestly liked this beer... but if the name wasn't there, I would have put this in the "good to great" category for an American Amber.... It really reminds me of Anderson Valley's Boont Amber... I love that beer for it's toasty malt qualities... but in an ESB.... it was waaay too much.
Thanks again goes out to Spencer.. really.. such a cool kat .. I wish the best to you and expect only the best from a rare find brewery... I am digging Lone Peak... and so will you.

I have always been a scent person. I like to have things around me smell nice and often choose the things I buy based on how they smell – laundry detergent, soaps, candles…you name it. I had been buying my body wash from a store that specialized in body (and things like that) solely because I really liked the smell of their products.
I guess this was okay when I was younger, but lately it had started to become an issue. Now that I no longer a teenager, I have to be really conscious of how products affect the moisture level of my skin. In the cold Wisconsin winters, this becomes an even bigger issue. I was starting to notice that my skin was feeling tight and dry and often kind of itchy – no fun at all!!
When I began as a Dove Ambassador, I was excited to try their new body wash since I had recently fallen in love with their shampoo and conditioner and noticed a huge difference in my hair once I started using it. The body wash did not disappoint! Right away (as in after only one use), I noticed that my skin felt better. That annoying itch was gone. After I had been using it for a little over a week, I noticed that I could actually see a difference in my skin. (Here's where I wish I had taken a "before" picture!! But I'm not going to stop using it just for the sake of proof!) My shins especially showed the greatest improvement. I even ditched my shave cream and started using the Dove Body Wash – no more post shaving stinging and itching.
The best thing that I discovered was that I loved the smell of the Dove Body Wash. It comes in a variety of fun "flavors" but even the traditional scent is just so fresh and clean that I fell in love with it. I also got to try out the unscented sensitive skin variety which was a perfect fit with my 8 year old son.
I guess the biggest testament to whether I like a product or not is whether I will go out and buy more once my free samples have run out. I can say that I have already stocked up on more Dove Body Wash as I don't want to get caught for even one day with an empty bottle! Plus there are so many fun scents and varieties to try.
To learn more, be sure to visit Dove's Facebook page!
I wrote this review while participating in a Brand Ambassador Campaign by Mom Central Consulting on behalf of Dove and received products to facilitate my post and a promotional item to thank me for taking the time to participate.

Study of TBX3 Function in human Embryo Stem (hES) Cell Differentiation and Identification of Genome-Wide TBX3 Promoter Binding-Sites with the CHIP-GLAS Promoter Array
Funding Type:
SEED Grant
Grant Number:
Funds requested:
$622 028

Public Abstract:
Stem cells can develop into every cell, every tissue and every organ in the human body, e.g. they can make any kind of cells in the human body. Stem cells reproduce themselves many times over and over. Their almost limitless potential has made stem cells a significant focus of medical research. But before scientists can use stem cells for medical purposes, they must first learn how to harness their power. They can't treat disease until they learn how to manipulate stem cells to get them to develop into specific tissues or organs. We would like to be able to grow a particular type of cell in the laboratory and then inject it into a patient, where it would replace diseased tissue. But stem cells are not yet being used to treat disease because we still haven't learned how to direct a stem cell to differentiate into a specific tissue or cell type (brain vs. liver, for example) and to control that differentiation once the cells are injected into a patient. We know that turning genes on and off is crucial to the process of differentiation, so we can add some factor into the culture dish and observe stem cells to differentiate into specific types of cells. But some sort of signal is needed to actually trigger the stem cells to differentiate. We are still searching for that signal. If we can ultimately learn how to direct stem cells to differentiate into one type of tissue or another, they can use them to treat the patients. In this proposal, we will first examine. We propose a novel approach to understanding differentiation of human embryo stem (hES) cells, by studying TBX3, a protein called a transcription factor that controls the expression of other genes. In humans, the loss of function of TBX3 causes Ulnar-Mammary Syndrome, a genetic disorder that can pass from one generation to the next. Our studies show that TBX3 can prevent the aging of mouse cells, so that the cells can keep growing. Furthermore, our preliminary results show that TBX3 is downstream mediator of another protein, BMP4. BMP4 is a known key regulator for hES cell differentiation. Thus, TBX3 is an attractive candidate as a downstream mediator of BMP4 in hES cell differentiation. We will test TBX3 effects on hES cell differentiation if down-regulate TBX3 in hES cells with a technology called siRNA knockdown. We will identify the genes controlled by TBX3 with a recently invented powerful technology called CHIP-GLAS. This technique allows us to examine thousands of genes on a small chip in a single experiment. We expect that the innovative experiments proposed here will open a new avenue to understanding the signal of hES cell differentiation.
Statement of Benefit to California:
In this propose, we will collaborate with AVIVA SYSTEMS BIOLOGY (ASB). ASB is a start-up biotech company in California to develop comprehensive mapping of DNA/Transcription factor interactions on a genomic scale. ChlP-GLAS (chromatin immunoprecipitation-guided ligation and selection) technology is the major product of the company. We have completed the pilot study. The preliminary results are very interesting and demonstrate the feasibility of the assay. ChlP-GLAS was invented by Dr. Xiangdong Fu at the University of California, San Diego (UCSD) and licensed exclusively to ASB. ASB has spent the last two years developing ChlP-GLAS technology. ChlP-GLAS utilizes an oligonucleotide microarray containing unique 40-mer regions of 20,000 human promoters. Corresponding to the 20,000 unique regions, a pool of sequence-specific oligos is allowed to anneal to the ChIP sample DMA. These oligos also contain common overhangs for subsequent amplification and labeling. As a result of this selection process only the DNA sequences of interest are amplified. Nonspecific and repeat-containing elements are removed, greatly increasing the sensitivity and specificity of the assay. Additionally, the amplified DNA molecules are all of uniform size, improving amplification and hybridization conditions. Therefore, ChlP-GLAS technology may represent a new generation of ChlP-on-chip which offers increased sensitivity with much less starting material required. On of the aim is validate application of CHIP-GLAS in stem cell research. As the manufacturer of ChlP-GLAS products and supplier of ChlP-GLAS services, ASB will able to capitalize this invention, which will have a significant benefit for the economy of California State. In addition, California as a largest state in US, the proposal study will benefit many of the patients. The aim of this proposal is ultimately to learn how to direct stem cells to differentiate into different type of tissues or cells, so we can use them for medical purposes. For example, stem cells could also be used to repair cells or tissues that have been damaged by disease or injury. This type of treatment is known as cell-based therapy. One potential application is to inject embryonic stem cells into the tissue Stem cells may also one day be used to repair brain cells in patients with Parkinson's disease. Eventually, we might even be able to grow entire organs in a laboratory to replace ones that have been damaged by disease. Growth factors specific to the organ would be added to guide the organ's development.
Review Summary:
SYNOPSIS: The proposal revolves around a single gene, TBX3. Mutation in the TBX3 gene causes "Ulnar Mammary Syndrome", a disease that manifests itself by lack of mammary glands and limb deformity. TBX3 is a BMP target, and mice knocked-out for TBX3 are embryonic lethal, suggesting an early essential function for the gene. This proposal has two specific aims. The first is to examine TBX3 functions in hES cell differentiation. The second specific aim is to identify the genome-wide downstream targets directly bound by TBX3 in hESC with chromatin immunoprecipitation-guided ligation and selection (CHIP-GLAS). INNOVATION AND SIGNIFICANCE: There are many genes that are the targets of BMPs and necessary for early embryonic development. It is not very clear why this one is more important than the others. It is also not very clear why the resolution of the embryonic function of TBX3 is better addressed in the context of hESCs than in the mESCs. Therefore, while this is an interesting project, it lacks both the higher level of significance and of innovation. STRENGTHS: The proposal is well written and proposes experiments that are well designed, sound and feasible. There is little doubt that the PI will successfully accomplish the aims of his proposal. WEAKNESSES: While there is nothing wrong with the aims proposed, this grant falls short from addressing top priority issues in hESCs. The very straightforward approaches described can easily be applied to NIH registry hES cell lines. This type of proposal could be a focus of an NIH appication, because it is likely that any uncovered role(s) of Tbx3 will be shared by independent lines. DISCUSSION: There was no further discussion following the reviewers' comments.

All of the preseason attention on the Dolphins has centered on the release of WR Chad Johnson and the three-horse battle at quarterback. The QB competition is important, but the staple of this team for 2012 will be the defensive line, which has generally been unheralded this offseason.
New coordinator Kevin Coyle will use multiple fronts, but mainly a 4-3 look, taking advantage of the most talented position group on the team.
"Obviously we're going to say that," DE Jared Odrick told PFW when asked if the D-line was the best unit on the Dolphins. "I hope every guy at every position says that about their position. We want everybody to be confident, focused and thinking they're going to be the best on the field every down."
Odrick explained how the new defense should benefit the team's D-line.
"Technically speaking, I'm playing in a little bit more space than I've been used to. Playing inside as a three-technique or four, lots of decisions need to be made quickly," he said. "You're still making a lot of quick decisions at a defensive end spot, (but) there's more opportunities for me to play in space on the edge. It's a difference from last year. … I think there's opportunity for the D-line to make more plays."
Odrick, 24, is entering his third NFL season. He suffered a season-ending injury in Week One of 2010, and returned to play in every game last season, notching six sacks.
"I feel like I'm leaps and bounds from where I was at this point last season," Odrick said. "In my rookie season, I was behind the 8-ball, coming in never playing in the 3-4 ever in my life. I was playing something totally different. Then I got used to it, got used to the two-gapping scheme. … My second year, I got my feet underneath me and felt a lot better.
"This year, I know what's coming in terms of the everyday focus that you have to bring to practice and the things that you have to work on."
Expectations are high for Odrick, who will rush the passer opposite the team's top defensive player, Cameron Wake. "He's such a threat off the edge and such an athletic guy at the position," Odrick said of Wake.
Odrick and Wake bookend DTs Randy Starks and Paul Soliai. "I try not to use the words "veteran savvy," but they've got it," Odrick said.
Last season, the line helped the Dolphins' defense finish third in the league against the run (95.6 yards per game). Odrick, Wake and Starks combined for 19 sacks last season. If the Dolphins are to be competitive in the division, Odrick and the rest of the D-line will have to live up to its potential.
"Anybody who knows me knows I set very high expectations of myself," Odrick said. "If you don't do that, you're in the wrong business doing it for the wrong reasons."

OG Carl Nicks has signed his restricted free agent tender with the Saints. The team officially announced the move on Monday evening.
In three professional seasons, Nicks has started 45 games for New Orleans and was named a Pro Bowler in 2010. He is considered one of the best players in the league at his position, and at only 26, should be in line for a long-term contract in the near future.
Nicks was given a first-round tender by the team, so there was little doubt he'd re-sign with the Saints this offseason.

A Beverly family who lost 15-year-old John McNicholas to brain cancer is keeping his memory alive in a unique and inspirational way. They are running to make a better day for others!
It's hard to believe he's gone. But in his short 15 years, McNicholas lived every day as a gift.
His mother, Amy, described him as a happy, healthy teenager. She called him a funny, charming old soul, a pain in the neck and a good athlete who loved sports.
Just two weeks after being named the starting first baseman for the St. Rita Mustangs - a dream of his since he started playing t-ball - something just wasn't right.
Complaining of a horrible headache like he never had, John started vomiting. Amy said it just didn't seem right. So she took him to what is now Advocate Christ Hospital. In the weeks prior to his death, John lost most the ability to show any emotion, to walk, talk and swallow. Ultimately, he lost the ability to breathe.
Ten short months after his diagnosis, young, handsome John was gone. He died from a pediatric brain tumor.
During his battle, Amy learned that so very little is known about pediatric brain tumors and how few dollars are dedicated to researching a cure. So the McNicholas family started a foundation in John's name and joined forces with other families in the neighborhood.
The McNicholas' are one of five Beverly families who have lost a son or daughter to a brain tumor in recent years. Amy told FOX 32 News that it's now her life's work to help other families who face similar circumstances.
On the Saturday after Thanksgiving, they will once again hit the road for their Turkey Trot. Local alderman Matt O'Shea grew up two doors down from John McNicholas. He will also be attending the event, which aims to spread awareness and raise money for research to find a cure for pediatric brain tumors.
When the Turkey Trot is done, The John McNicholas Pediatric Brain Tumor Foundation's first $200,000 grant will be awarded to a lucky researcher, to find better care and a better cure.
What a way to honor and remember young John McNicholas!

Other forums will focus on technology and student life.
The strategic planning steering committee will host a public forum for students on Wednesday at 7 p.m. in the Harrison Institute.
Senior Vice Provost Milton Adams says UVA officials hope students will provide ideas during the planning process and identify how the student experience can be improved.
The committee will put together plans and present them to the board of visitors next month.

NEW ORLEANS —When Hornets guard Austin Rivers struggled through the early part of this, his rookie season, he turned to his father, Boston Celtics head coach Doc Rivers.
So Tuesday night, when the two Rivers men went out for dinner, the father turned the table on the son.
"That's the first time I've ever paid for my dad," Austin Rivers said. "He said he has taken care of me my whole life so I've got to catch up."
Problem is, the father is still helping the son, paid dinner or not. Doc continues adding to the bill of fare what his son owes him.
In 61 games, including 26 starts, Rivers averaged 6.2 points, 2.1 assists and 1.2 turnovers per game. But he broke his hand earlier in March and will miss the rest of the season.
"He was just mad just like I was," Austin Rivers said. "I was having fun. It was fun playing basketball. I was looking forward to each night."
But it's more than just the broken hand.
Austin turned to Doc when he was having problems earlier in the season, having what one website termed as the worst rookie season ever put together.
"I always go to him and he helped me through all those rough patches I had to the point where when things started to go really well, I still talked to him," Rivers said. "I wanted to keep playing the way I was."
The youngster, however, realizes that he's going to have to learn for himself if he's ultimately going to be a long-term professional.
Though he'd rather be on the court, he's looking at the bright side of his season-ending injury.
"Sometimes if you just take a step back – for the rest of the year I'll be watching – and you learn a lot," Rivers said. "You see more as you watch. When you're playing, you're so concentrated on winning. As a fan or teammate watching, as I have to do the rest of the year, I'm going to see a lot of things."

ATLANTIC CITY, N.J. (AP) - The new Miss America says she's delighted the pageant embraces diversity. Nina Davuluri became the first contestant of Indian heritage and the second consecutive contestant from New York to win the Miss America pageant Sunday night.
The 24-year-old Davuluri won the title as the nationally televised pageant returned home to Atlantic City.
In a press conference after winning the title, the Syracuse native who wants to become a doctor said she's glad children watching the pageant "can finally relate to a new Miss America."
Davuluri performed a classical Bollywood fusion dance for her talent competition.
After the traditional frolic in the Atlantic City surf Monday morning, she will head to the scene of a devastating boardwalk fire in the New Jersey communities of Seaside park and Seaside Heights Monday afternoon.
Miss Minnesota -- Rebecca Yeh of Brainerd -- was among the fourth runner up. She won the preliminary talent competition.

Archaeology Through the Looking Glass
September 12 through October 19, 2013
Opening Reception: September 12, 2013 5-6:30 pm
Leslie Fry sees everyday objects as artifacts from another world. Her sculpture incorporates imaginary ruins created with these artifacts. Although ruins are most often thought of as the remains of past civilizations, souvenirs of former lives, memento mori, Fry is also interested in the ruins created by natural disasters, real estate schemes, and the ravages of war. Her archaeological perspective on resurrection from destruction of civilizations reflects ongoing natural cycles of decay and new growth.

Merill Comeau will inhabit the McIninch Art Gallery as a working studio to create a site-specific installation. Comeau will enlist participation from students, staff, and faculty to identify and to collect seemingly useless materials regularly discarded in the course of campus life. These materials will be altered, arranged, and installed on the gallery walls consistent with Comeau's practice of creating something beautiful out of discarded and unwanted objects.

Composites: Painting through Photography
January 16 through February 22, 2014
Opening Reception: Thursday, January 16, 2014 5-7 pm
This exhibit examines the dependence on the photographic image to frame how we see things as well as the way in which painting can transform those observations through the labor of investigation and raises the question "what is more 'authentic' in the age of Photoshop in both mass and digital media?" This new body of work calls into question what viewers bring to an image and how they visualize their experiences.

Shadow War
February 27 through April 5, 2014 (closed March 3 to March 8)
Opening Reception: Rescheduled for Thursday, March 20th from 5 to 7pm
With recent drawings and installation work, Linda Bond examines the use of drones as agents of war. Her exhibition, Shadow War, is comprised of projects derived from the printed news. Scanning, reprinting, and transferring information, content is blurred and reformed. This process of transformation and assembly becomes a means of clarification. Abstraction becomes concrete. Individual elements collect in improvised or deliberate formations to create site specific installations.

£35-Million Man
POSTED: 8 April 2011
£35-Million Man
Currently, Liverpool could use a morale boost. Coming off a defeat from West Brom, and possibly without Gerrard for the rest of the season due to a groin injury recurrence, the Reds are desperate for inspiration.
Enter Andy Carroll, a man with a £35-million mission. Since officially replacing Torres, Anfield's new number 9 has wanted to prove that he's worth the massive tag price. But so far the only goal Carroll has made was for England, during a friendly match with Ghana who answered with a goal that ended the match in a draw.
But I suspect that that goal for England was all Carroll needs to come fully into form for Liverpool. In the Reds' next game, they face Manchester City, currently at 3rd place. The numbers put the 6th-placed Anfield boys at a disadvantage: a 31-game EPL record has City with 16 wins and 7 losses; Liverpool have 13 wins and 12 losses.
The match will take place in the Reds' home ground, and it's the right time for Carroll to come out and revive Anfield. I believe that with Suarez already in peak form, Carroll is set to emerge in full force to realise the half of what Gerrard described as "the most feared strike force in the league."
Don't count Liverpool out quite yet. They may have more to prove than anyone could expect.
Verdict: Home win

We all know the one of the easiest ways to sell something is online. But Phoenix police Sgt. James Holmes said some recent transactions aren't going the way they should.
"They're (suspects) taking whatever they can get from that victim," Holmes said.
Holmes said opportunistic thieves are targeting electronics and money and have "scanned the internet looking for opportunities to make 'purchases,'" Holmes added.
He said the seller often agrees to meet the prospective buyer. But Holmes said they should meet in a public place, and not where the seller is potentially vulnerable.
On Aug. 11, a man met another man at the Shell gas station at the corner of Indian School and 27th Avenue to sell some jewelry.
"The victim goes over to the car and for whatever reason he gets inside the vehicle with the suspect, and that was the major error," Holmes explained.
The suspect not only got away with the stolen property, but also the victim's wallet with his credit card inside. Investigators said another man, not the suspect, used the card a short time after the robbery.
"I need them (victims) to be concerned about their safety. If you're gonna do this, you gotta do it right. You gotta have people with ya," Holmes said.

Both Southeastern Asset Management and T. Rowe Price say that the price tag "does not reflect the value of" the company, so they'll vote against Michael Dell and private equity firm Silver Lake.
The thing is, as Fortune's Dan Primack pointed out in his daily newsletter this morning, that might not matter. Check out the math:
So let's put this in context: What Silver Lake needs is for a majority of Dell shareholders not named Michael Dell to approve the deal. Not a supermajority, but just 51% -- or around >43% of outstanding shares, once Michael Dell's stake is excluded. SAM and T. Rowe only hold around 13% combined, while the 10 largest outside holders (including SAM and T. Rowe) hold less than 29%. In other words, the big institutions alone don't have the mathematical power to stop this. Instead, they are banking on their reputational powers of persuasion (i.e., if the large lead, the small will follow).
So if the big shareholders do manage to sway the smaller shareholders, that might mean a price hike. If that happens, as Primack goes on to point out, Silver Lake may not be able to take that on, but Michael Dell might.
Point is, this deal is still very much in play.

EYEWITNESS LOCAL NEWSAmount West Virginians Paid For Utilities Up In 2013
from Eyewitness News Online
Reported: Jan. 22, 2014 1:38 PM EST
Updated: Jan. 22, 2014 1:46 PM EST
CHARLESTON, W.Va. (AP) -- A new report said West Virginians paid 1.2 percent more for utilities in 2013 than in the previous year, primarily because of increases in natural gas and water rates.
The report released Wednesday by the Public Service Commission's Consumer Advocate Division said the average West Virginia utility customer paid $280.62 a month for gas, electricity, water and telephone service last year. In 2012, the average monthly cost was $277.22.
Utility rates ranged from $258.82 in Morgantown to $316.25 in Bluefield.
Consumer Advocate Division director Jackie Roberts said the increases in natural gas and water rates last year were offset by a decline in electricity rates.
Roberts said rates have increased by 18 percent for water and 7 percent for electricity since 2010. Natural gas rates have fallen 18 percent.

1John Mayer Knows He "Was" a Jerk, Doesn't Seem to Care All That Much
John Mayer has a lot of feelings, people. I mean, have you listened to 'Your Body Is a Wonderland'? If the answer is "unfortunately, yes" and you still have ears, listen up. You see, John knows he's been promiscuous in his dating life and treated women like garbage, but now that Katy Perry has tamed him and taught him the error of his ways, he realizes he was probably wasn't all that nice to his past girlfriends, a lengthy lists which includes Jennifer Aniston, Minka Kelly and Taylor Swift.
Appearing on CBS Sunday Morning, John said:
"I was just a jerk."
That's it. Not "I was a jerk, but I've got my shit together now" or "I can't believe what an absolute asshat I was! So glad I'm not like that anymore!" Instead, you can take it or leave it because he doesn't care one way or another what you think:
"It's very liberating when you finally realize it's impossible to make everyone like you. I wanted everybody to like me. I thought I was one shuck and jive away in every direction."
As my mother used to tell me as a kid when I was desperate for one of those Cabbage Patch dolls with the hair you could actually crimp, "People in hell want ice water." So basically, dream on. The day everyone – or even a fraction of the population – likes John Mayer is the day I start selling all my belongings and preparing for the end of days.

One Response to "John Mayer Knows He "Was" a Jerk, Doesn't Seem to Care All That Much"
He's really turned into a nobody that's why he can't get beautiful girls like he use to so he now has to settle for Katy and try to ride her coat tails and get his career on track again !!! That by no means he's not a cheater anymore it just means after all this time his better at hiding it :) if Katy isn't careful and smarten up he will bring her own with him !!!! But at least they will have each other !

Ever since Comet ISON (C/2012 S1) became breaking news as the 'comet of the century' nearly a year ago, there has been plenty of speculation by the media on the current state of the comet.
While there's plenty to see and do at the museum, there's a lot that people don't know and never see. Whether it's a program you didn't know existed or a fun piece of OMSI history, there are many stories to tell!
I'd like to thank our resident curator, Lori Erickson, for her help in digging through the OMSI archives and collections room to uncover these hidden gems.
We have some exciting news to share out of the Life Science Lab! A Madagascar Day Gecko was born this summer. We have bred insects and axolotls (a type of salamander) with success, but this is the first time one of the reptiles in the lab has had offspring.
The second annual Portland Mini Maker Faire is gearing up for September 14 and 15! We will welcome over a hundred ingenious and inventive makers from Portland and the surrounding area to OMSI this weekend for a showcase of their unique skills. Here are just a few of the makers you can expect to see.
Ex Libris Anonymous
Have you heard about OMSI's Mini Maker Faire? Wired's Geek Dad Jonathan Liu advised parents last year, "It's definitely worth your while to take the kids — you're sure to find some excellent activities, and I guarantee you'll find at least one thing that will amaze you."

The Deer Park boys basketball team, using a 8-3 run to close out the game, defeated the Chewelah Cougars 63-56 on Thursday in the season opener for both schools.
The Cougars, who trailed by as many as 18 points in the first half, trimmed the Deer Park lead to 55-53 on a basket by Brandon Smith with 2 minutes to play. The Stags responded with free throws by Reese Ferguson and Uconn Peone sandwich between a jumper by Zach Mohr to extend the margin to 60-53 with less than a minute to play.
The Deer Park girls basketball team, paced by four players in double figures, easily dispatched the Chewelah Cougars 61-32 on Thursday in the season opener for both schools.
The Lady Stags wasted little time taking control of the game, building a 10-2 lead in the first couple of minutes. The margin grew to 28-8 midway through the second quarter on Alison Ruygrok's second three-pointer of the game. A Kimmie Brazington put-back gave the Lady Stags a 44-18 lead just before halftime.
The Deer Park volleyball team, coming off its best season in almost a decade, had one player earn postseason honors in voting by conference coaches.
Middle hitter Kimmi Brazington was selected to the second team.
Named to the first team were outside hitter Jaime Weisner and KC McConnell, both of Clarkston; outside hitter Sequoia Lofton, middle blocker Latasha Lofton and setter Aaliyah Ashley-Meek, all of West Valley; and libario April Oviatt and outside hitter Brittany Harvey, both of Pullman.

Born on Aug. 27, 1926, in Spokane to Martin and Helen (Proctor) Eickmeyer, he was raised on his parents' Wild Rose Prairie farm and graduated from Mead High School. He served in the Air Corps in World War II and he met his wife of 65 years, Louella (Redetske) Eickmeyer while stationed in Kansas. They operated a gas station in Great Bend, Kan., prior to moving to Spokane.
Interment will be held this summer at Peone Cemetery in Mead for Spokane Deer Lake resident James E. DeFreese, 79, who passed away on Nov. 22.
Born on Feb. 25, 1932, to the late Bill and Vera DeFreese, he was captain of the Mead High School 1949 football team and graduated from MHS in 1950.
Mr. DeFreese established DeFreese Roofing and ran it successfully for almost 50 years. He and his crew roofed many Spokane area homes built in the 1950s through the 1990s.
He married Jaclyn S. Bartleson in 1950 and although they later divorced, they remained lifelong friends.
Carl Calvin Ward, 78. was born on May 26, 1933, and went to be with the Lord on Nov. 20, 2011.
He is survived by his nephews and nieces, Tom and Sherry Ward, Tammie and Brandy Smith; great-nephews and great-nieces, Josh and Jen Rivas, Amanda Ward and Cory Ward, along with three great-great-nieces, one great-great-nephew and lots of friends.

A word from Tribeca Tavern
TRIBECA TAVERN is a casual grill and bar that just so happens to have a state of the art audio/visual system. Great for the big game? Sure. Great for lunch, dinner, and Sunday brunch? Absolutely.
Our specialties are burgers, taken to the next level, accompanied by 20 North Carolina brewed draft beers. TRIBECA is more than burger joint though, with a fresh fun menu including appetizers, salads, soups, brick oven pizzas, steaks, seafood, pastas and fresh desserts.

Diner Reviews
The menu had a variety of options
including vegetarian and out of the ordinary. A lot of use of local businesses such as the Chapel Hill Creamery. The Aged Rib-eye was delicious and the hamburgers were huge. I really enjoyed the crab dip appetizer too. It is also a good place for trying unique and local beer. We were there on a quiet Sunday night, but... TVs were everywhere - might have to come back to watch a hockey game."
Dined on 8/24/2014
We've been wanting to try Tribeca
Tavern and had heard about the burgers. WOW! Haven't had a burger like that in years. Truly one of the best we 've ever had. The service was excellent. Highly recommended for a great casual dinner, anytime."
Dined on 8/23/2014
We dine at Tribeca often year
around. We are always satisfied with the quality of our meals and the service as well as the moderate pricing. On this night we had tomato soup, a chef salad and a house salad with salmon. The tomato soup was excellent, among the best I have tasted. The salmon was cooked perfectly. The chef salad was very good. I would rather have all romaine or iceberg lettuce rather than the mixed greens so I had to pick my way through the greens. However, the portion was large and I had plenty to eat. We recommend Tribeca for a consistently great casual dining experience."

I've had two business dinners here
this month and both have been just great. Excellent service, everyone enjoyed their meal and we had great conversations in the relaxed and casual environment."
Dined on 8/20/2014
Love the food especially the
shrimp and brie pizza. Great food!"
Dined on 8/16/2014
We ate outside because it was
quieter. Also we were taking advantage of the nice day. The flies did find us once the food arrived. It was the best corn beef sandwich I had here. It was very tasty. You could see the meat inside, too. The onion rings were just OK. I remember them being better before. The waitress was very good, too."
Dined on 8/8/2014
Food is consistently very good,
beer menu has a wide variety of local brews with daily specials, and the staff is very friendly and knowledgeable. Go primetime for a great dinner, or later for beers and apps."
Dined on 8/4/2014
I had higher expectations. My
salmon was very tasty, small portion. My dates Margherrita pizza was not great. There were flies too. The service was great and somewhat reasonably priced."

Went with my wife and a friend for
my birthday. They consistently deliver a great experience. Great list of beers on tap with a strong focus on local. Everything was great!"

We went for my father in law's
80th birthday…kids and adults. They have a great selection of food…everyone was happy! We will definately be back."
Dined on 7/12/2014
We dine at Tribeca Tavern often
when we want a casual meal at moderate prices. We find the service always very good to excellent and the meals consistently good. We had a salad with salmon and fish and chips on this visit. Both meals were prepared as we expected and were served hot. We were pleased with the dining experience and will return again soon."
Dined on 7/12/2014
They have great food from burgers
to steaks to apps with a lot of great foodie twists. It's also very laid back. The tv at each booth is a great touch."
Dined on 7/11/2014
Though we had a conformation from
open table, they did not have the reservation which was annoying. Because they were not yet full, we were seated however, if they did not have an available table, we would not have gotten in."
Dined on 7/9/2014
A great place for work lunches
near the Triangle. It's also good for drinks after work and happy hour. I recommend the Buffalo Chicken Tacos."
Dined on 7/7/2014
Tribeca Tavern doesn't seem to be
as it once was. The food was average, half empty on a Saturday night. The whole experience was underwhelming. For me, there was not perceived value in this dining experience."
Dined on 6/28/2014
The menu looks inviting but when
the food comes, there are basic things wrong. Hamburger meat is good but the buns are terrible. They are egg-based and simply not right for hamburgers. Alternative buns are worst - frozen, microwaved vegan buns or pretzel. Their bacon is paper thin rather than thick cut, onions and tomatoes the same - you simply can't taste them. All in all, a high price for an average meal."
Dined on 6/28/2014
My wife and I go to Tribeca Tavern
2 - 4 times/month. The food is consistently good as is the service. I'd say it is several notches above pub food. The problem we are having is that we've exhausted the menu of foods we like; hopefully we'll see some new offerings soon. This is a low risk restaurant if you are seeking casual dining with a comfortable atmosphere."
Dined on 6/21/2014
When we are looking for a casual
place to have lunch or dinner nine times out of 10 we go to Tribeca Tavern. On this evening our party had fish and chips, a hamburger, bison burger and salad with salmon. All of our meals were very good. The fish and chips has been updated to include two onion rings, a larger portion and is served on "newspaper" as in England. The changes were a welcome surprise. Both burgers were very good and the salmon was prepared perfectly. Our server, Jordan, was friendly and helpful. Tribeca is a great place to dine for a casual dinner with friends or family."
Dined on 6/20/2014
We chose Tribeca Tavern primarily
because it was listed as kid- friendly and it is. Good choices food wise for kids etc. Our service was pretty bad. The waiter barely checked on us and my husband had to hail someone down to get a second glass of wine. The hostess was more interested in her colleagues than proper customer care. The food was average, although the menu seemed enticing based on the web site."
Dined on 6/15/2014
We went to Tribeca Tavern for a
Father's day lunch. This is at least our 5th time eating here, we have always had a wonderful experience. On this day we came for a late lunch. It was a little disappointing that the menu had changed. The meal took a little longer then usual, but I understand that happens on busy days. It was very cold in there as well. When our food did arrive it was very cold, the temperature you would expect your food to be at the end of a meal. It was not enjoyable and we decided it wasn't worth eating. The manager apologized, didn't charge us for the meal we did not eat. He gave us a gift card for $25 to come back again. For $15 burgers, I expect it to be served hot. $25 will not be enough for us to return."
Dined on 6/15/2014
We had a great experience! There
was a bit of a communication issue with our reservation request to be outside but it was quickly corrected once we got there. Our server Keith was awesome! Food was excellent! Thank you for making a small family graduation celebration enjoyable for all!"
Dined on 6/8/2014
The server was pleasant and
personable.The kids menu was great. The food arrived in a timely manner and was very good."
Dined on 6/8/2014
The food, as always, is stellar at
Tribeca. However, the service was less than desirable. We were seated and received drinks very quickly, but our waiter disappeared for about 15 minutes while we stared at our menus and watched as tables around us were seated and served before we even placed our order. He got our order and we waited another 45+ minutes or so before our food came. In that time, the table beside us sat, ordered, ate, and got their checks. No idea what happened... burgers and sandwiches do not take more than an hour to cook. Hopefully it was a fluke, because I love Tribeca, but I am not hoping to see that waiter again!"
Dined on 6/7/2014
Tribeca Tavern is your typical
tavern, but it offers extras in gourmet features and a clean, modern environment. I love that their food is locally sourced, and there is a nice neighborhood feel to the restaurant interior and exterior areas. The prices are a little high, but you have to trust that the local ingredients are worth the price."
Dined on 6/6/2014
We've been to Tribeca 4 times and
this last time the food quality was WAY down. Things were REALLY greasy and overpriced for what we got. This visit started with a rude hostess, too. Our Open Table reservation asked for outside and I said we were going with our pup, which we've done before. All the tables on the right were full and most on the left were open. She comes out, sees me, and goes "OH... you have a DOG?" in a very rude tone. "You're not allowed to sit over on this side if you have a dog." my husband replied "well the whole other side is full, and we said we had a dog on the reservation" Our waiter (Jeremy) was AWESOME. he brought water for the pup and was very attentive. However, the food was just not up to par."
Dined on 6/3/2014
I was looking to take my husband
somewhere decent for his birthday and treat him to something nice. Found this restaurant on trip advisor, and as usual, it was over rated. Food was ok (the white pizza was very bland and my husband's steak wasn't cooked correctly, but everyone else seemed moderately satisfied) but the service was far below normal. The waiter made us feel like we were always bothering him and that he had better things to do. I wouldn't go here again even if management offered a free meal. It isn't worth the gas driving there."
Dined on 6/1/2014
Great place to eat, although the
TVs are huge distractions. It would be nice if they'd limit those to one area of the restaurant. "
Dined on 5/31/2014
Tribeca is our first choice for
special get-togethers, especially when we're entertaining out-of-town guests. Thank you, Tribeca!"
Dined on 5/29/2014
Their best food offering are their
burgers. We are frequent diners at Tribeca and this time we tried other food items but none of them were as great as their burgers. The pizza was tasty but not crispy and the short rib pasta dish was just OK. Stick with the burgers and you will really be pleased with Tribeca."
Dined on 5/28/2014
There is a nice outdoor dining
area here. The food was well prepared and tasty! The service was not the fastest but I did hear another server mention they were busier than expected. The unique beer and food menu items would bring me back again "
Dined on 5/26/2014
It was a nice place for lunch.
Although it wasn't crowded, they still had a. High noise level y that is super amplified at night. It's a hot nighttime soot for the area"

We were a party of four and
ordered a bit of a variety throughout the menu offerings - everything we ordered was delicious! Service was excellent and the beer was great. Ambience was nice and casual."
Dined on 5/11/2014
We tried to give Tribeca the
benefit of the doubt on our last 2 visits, but we're done. The menu selections are mundane, the quality of the food is dismissal and the meals are consistently prepared incorrectly. When a child's hamburger is charred black and crumbles, 2 of our steaks are prepared incorrectly and my cocktail is made with the wrong 2 ingredients, you know you're in trouble. Our waiter was phenomenal, but not even he could make miracles happen during our Mother's Day meal. I wanted to make reservations but was told none were available due to the restaurant being so busy that day. We were in the restaurant for almost 2 hours and MOST of the tables remained empty. Our favorite spot in Cary is no more. "
Dined on 5/11/2014
This was not the first time we
were at Tribeca, however it was the first time we were there for a "holiday". Mother's Day we went and just felt very rushed....food wasn't great...waitress was slow to give us refills on drinks, etc... Just not the best experience for the 100.00 plus tab"
Dined on 5/11/2014
Had great food, perhaps a better
ribeye than the Angus Barn at half the price. Great sides and portion size. Entrees are more in the 10-20$ range, but it's excellent. If I had more money, I'd be here all the time. The only drawback I found is that between the multiple tvs and music playing, it was hard to have a conversation with our large group (8 people). Perhaps I'm hard of hearing, but they could have toned down the music a touch. Other than that, it was a great restaurant."
Dined on 5/10/2014
The food and service were top
notch at TriBeCa Tavern. Waiter was very knowledgeable and made excellent suggestions on food and drink choices. "

With the Spurs facing a critical game lose and they would have to win two in a row in Miami coach Gregg Popovich inserted Ginobili into the starting lineup at small forward. That kept the hot-shooting Green at shooting guard.
Both moves paid huge dividends for the Spurs. Ginobili scored a season-high 24 points and had 10 assists in his first start of the season. Green, meanwhile, scored 24 points, hitting 6 of 10 three-pointers. He broke Ray Allens mark for three-pointers in an NBA Finals. Green has hit 25.
I cant believe hes still open at this moment in the series, Spurs point guard Tony Parker said. They are still trapping me and doubling Timmy [Duncan], and Danny is wide open. Hes shooting the ball well. If you are going to leave Danny wide open, hes going to make threes.
Ginobili and Green teamed up to help the Spurs hold off the Heat during a critical third-quarter stretch after the Heat had cut the Spurs lead to 75-74 with 3:05 remaining. With Ginobili playing the point guard while Parker was on the bench, Ginobili and Green scored or assisted as the Spurs went on a 13-1 run to close the quarter. The run eventually reached 19-1 in the fourth quarter.
It started with Green taking a handoff from Boris Diaw and hitting a three-pointer from five feet beyond the arc before Chris Bosh or Shane Battier could close. On the Spurs next possession, Ginobili converted an old-fashioned three-point play, driving on Allen and hitting a shot over Bosh despite Allens foul. After two more Ginobili layups and a Ginobili assist, the quarter was over, most of the damage was done and the Heat never recovered.
I needed it, Ginobili said. I was having a tough time scoring, and I needed to feel like the game was coming to me. And I was able to attack the rim, get to the free-throw line and make a couple of shots.
On Greens record-setting three-pointer, Green tipped the ball away from Dwyane Wade as both players fell to the floor, and Ginobili pushed the ball upcourt. Green, after getting up, came down and spotted up for a three. Ginobili flipped the ball back to Green, who with 9:40 left in the third quarter hit it before Wade could stop the shot.
When the Heat made a run late, they were at it again, with Ginobili flipping it to Green for a three-pointer off the fast break and a 114-101 Spurs lead with 1:06 left.
Last season, it was Ginobilis broken hand that opened the way for Green to earn a starting spot. Now, the two have shown the Spurs best chance might be with both of them starting.
Hes been unbelievable, Duncan said of Green. Especially on this stage. Hes shooting the ball so well. Were asking him to defend Dwyane Wade and LeBron [James] and all these guys. Hes got a lot on his shoulders, and hes stepped up and answered the bell. Hes been unbelievable. I hope he doesnt wake up and keeps playing this way.
