I am trying to connect to a remote server on a specific port via WAP.
I have studied SDK doc, Symbian OS Comm programming and seen couple of unanswered similar queries here.
I have configured RAS on my Win2k server and a WAP gatway.I have put a WML page on this server for testing.Through my application running on 7650, I make GET request for this page and that is working fine.So in that way I have tested it.
Now the problems :
First I want to connect to my TCP/IP server running on this server listening on a particular port say 8800.
I am trying it by passing URI as http://<hostIP>:<port>
Is there any other way to do it?
Second I want to put an file to server and then receive from server.Now you can guess I want to open permanent connection.
So for that I am using RWSPCOConn class.
My queries are:
Open() in RWSPCOConn
TInt Open(RWAPServ& aServer,const TDesC8& aRemoteHost,TPort aRemotePort,TPort aLocalPort,TBearer aBearer,TBool aSecureConn)
takes aRemoteHost which is said to be WAP gateway but whatever WAP gateway is specify here, I always get list of Access Point available after Connect() and it gets connected too...point of confusion.
I am specifying port as 9201 (continuous,non-secure)
As per Connect() given in RWSPCOConn
TInt Connect(const TDesC8& aClientHeaders, CCapCodec* aCap)
seems to be synchronuous but in fact it is not and how it can be?
and neither it is taking TRequestStatus argument...so it is very confusing
What should be passed as aClientHeaders in function above
For getting wml page it is text/vnd.wap.wml but what if anything else say a XML file.
CreateTransaction() in RWSPCOConn
TInt CreateTransaction(TMethod aMethod,const TDesC& aURI, const TDesC8& aHeaders,const TDesC8& aBody, RWSPCOTrans& aTrans)
take aHeaders?How this is different from clientHeaders supplied above in Connect()
So in all there are whole lot of problems ranging from connection to file types,If anybody here can provide any suggestion, I shall be highly thankful.
Any working example will be matchless
thanks and regards

"What happened is we do surveys with lots of smaller theatres, asking, 'What do we have in our catalogue that you would like to see?' And Newsies kept popping up. Over and over people would tell me, 'Nobody cares about Newsies.' But whenever I would go speak at colleges, some kid would say, 'When are you doing Newsies on stage?' And then Alan Menken told me that when he went to colleges to speak they always said, 'When are you doing Newsies?'"
So he decided to put together a stage version, not for Broadway, but to license. "It kind of floundered and didn't quite make it. And then Harvey Fierstein, in a chance meeting with Alan Menken, said, 'What are you doing with Newsies?' Alan said, 'We're having trouble cracking it.' It was Harvey who came up with a different approach and took it apart." A subsequent reading was successful, and a production at the Paper Mill Playhouse was arranged.
"Then," he said, "it became a thing." Critics loved it, audiences loved it. Suddenly, the Nederlander Theatre was available when a planned production of Anne Christie starring Jude Law was canceled. Still, Schumacher wasn't thinking about a long run for Newsies. "We just thought, let's do it on Broadway for a little bit to brand it Broadway before we license it. And then it took off."
"What Newsies did do," he added, however, "is it may have redefined what you think we do. It's smaller, and it wasn't based on a hit. It doesn't feature any kind of a fantasy element. It's a different kind of show."
|photo by Joseph Marzullo/WENN
"At the beginning it might have gotten a kind of novelty audience," he continued, "who might have had some affection for the film. But what it rapidly became on Broadway is a show for the general audience. Stand in front of the theatre and you see a regular, general Broadway audience."
Schumacher's non-stop schedule and many years of service notwithstanding, he appears to retain the same zest for theatre that he possessed as a teenager, when the best way he could think of to celebrate a new driver's license was to park his car in front of the nearest theatre. He has a caricature at Sardi's, and frequently arranges to sit under it when he dines. The current Broadway season contains revivals of two shows that remain close to his heart: Pippin, the title role in which he played as a young man in California; and Annie, the original production of which he saw back on that fateful first trip to New York. He won't listen to a bad word uttered against either of them. "I don't tolerate Annie bashing," he said, sounding at least half-serious. "Sometimes there are certain songs that cheer me up. And 'Tomorrow' does cheer me up."
He even seems to enjoy talking to journalists. "That's all I do is conversation," he said. "A little gossip, a little chat, a little idle talk of this and that."
And so the conversation concludes, with a little idle talk. Did I know that Phil Collins played the Artful Dodger in the original London production of Oliver!? No, I did not. Or that, when he got too old for that role, he switched to the part of Noah Claypole? No, not that either. Finally, the coup de grâce. "Who was Phil Collins' understudy? One young Cameron Mackintosh!"
"And now I've been able to work with both of them on Broadway: Phil Collins on Tarzan and Cameron Mackintosh on Mary Poppins." By God, the man is good at chit chat.
"See how I put a little bow on this for you?" he said with an impish grin.
The writer sees it. And he takes the bow willingly.

Mary-Ellen Manning, who served on the Governor's Council for 12 years, said she gave an "A+" effort after losing in the race for the Second Essex District seat in the state Senate.
She finished third in Thursday's Democratic Party primary, behind winner Joan Lovely and John Slattery.
Edward Carroll was fourth.
The district includes Danvers, plus Beverly, Peabody, Salem and Topsfield.
"I couldn't feel any better even if we did win," Manning told a room full of supporters at her campaign headquarters in Peabody Square on Thursday night.
Manning stepped above her supporters to speak just after 8:30 p.m., announcing that she was not going to win.
Manning, of Peabody, said she was "honored and humbled" to serve as a Governor's Councilor from the Fifth District for 12 years. She also recognized several key supporters who helped on her campaign.
"I really wanted the campaign to go on forever," she said.
Later, in an interview with Patch, she said she's not sure what is next for her life in politics.
"I never planned on being in politics for the rest of my life," she said.
Supporters, even after Manning conceded, remained upbeat at her headquarters as they ate pizza for dinner.
"When you've given an A+ effort you are happy with the results," she said.

So, after cutting ties with Haren and Santana, backing out of the Greinke sweepstakes, trading for Tommy Hanson (losing Walden in the process),and signing such illustrious free agents as Joe Blanton and Sean Burnett, the Angels finally made their big move of the offseason by inking Josh Hamilton to a 5 year, $125 million deal. This seems to leave the Angels pretty much set for the 2013 season, barring one more signing or a trade that would most likely involve Peter Bourjos or Hank Conger for a middle/back of the rotation pitcher. So, let's go over the current Angels players and see what the team looks like!
1. Jered Weaver- Another fantastic year for the Weave in 2012. His velocity dips are somewhat worrying but I'm not too concerned.
2. C.J. Wilson- Definitely unperformed his expectations this year, but he's a talented, smart guy, so I'm expecting a bounce back year.
3. Tommy Hanson - He's been good in the past, but 2012 was not a good year for him. The Angels gave up a good pitcher in Walden for him, so it's clear JeDi sees something in him. Hopefully he's right.
4. Joe Blanton - He's never been good, he'll probably never be very good. Hopefully pitching in the Angel's pitcher-friendly park will help him.
5. Garrett Richards/Jerome Williams- Either of these guys could end up with the job, and the other will end up in the pen. Richards was a good prospect, but he's shown nothing to give us reason to expect he'll improve greatly upon his 2012 season. Williams is a replacement-level innings eater, nothing more.
So, that's the pitching right now. Definitely not great, but with our hitting and bullpen it ought to suffice. A trade could help, and the current rumors seem to involve David Price or Rick Porcello. Both of those guys could definitely help us, but we ought to consider if they'll really be worth what we'd have to give up. If a trade for either of those guys involves Trumbo or Bourjos, I would rather stick with what we've got
1. Ryan Madson- A fantastic JeDi signing on the cheap ($3.5 million base, up to $3.5 million more in incentives) should bring us an excellent closer and help end our bullpen woes of the last two years.
2. Ernesto Frieri- JeDi robbed the Padres for him, and it turned out very well for us. He didn't seem to have to composure to close out big games, but now that we've got Madson he should be able to hold down the seventh or eighth innings with ease.
3. Scott Downs- He's been great for us, and there's no reason to expect anything less this year.
4. Sean Burnett- We got him for a good price (2 years/$8 million), and he's been good for the Nationals. He'll bring a strong left-handed presence to our 'pen.
5. Kevin Jepsen- He bounced back really well in the second half, and we all know he's got the stuff to be a great threat. Hopefully he'll keep the momentum from the tail end of the 2012 season.
6. Nick Maronde/Bobby Cassevah/???- the last spot will probably go to Maronde, but the Angels might want to give him some more time in the minors, leaving the door open for Cassevah or another reliever to sneak in with a good Spring Training.
For the first time in quite some time, the Bullpen looks pretty formidable. Props to JeDi for working on our biggest weakness.
1B- Albert Pujols- We'll be seeing his name for the next eight years. Hopefully he can bring back some average and power this year
Kendrys Morales- Expect to see him mostly at DH, but he'll grab first when Pujols needs to rest. I'm expecting a nice uptick in production this year.
2B- Howie Kendrick- I assume we'll see more of the same from Kendrick- above average defense and hitting for his position, but terrible clutchness.
SS- Erick Aybar- Aybar had a great second half, hitting .326 with 15 bags and 39 runs after the All-Star Break. I'd expect to see him in the two hole sometimes, which would probably help to boost his numbers even further.
3B- Alberto Callaspo- Not your traditional third baseman, but he gets on base at a decent enough pace and we'll be getting enough power elsewhere
C- Chris Ianetta- He didn't have a great first season as an Angel, but hopefully he can stay healthy and put up better numbers in the upcoming year.
Hank Conger/John Hester- Since the Angels have so much depth in the outfield, I'd bet they'll go with two catchers. Hopefully Conger gets to play some more this year. If not, expect him to get traded.
LF/CF- Mike Trout- After being robbed of the MVP and Gold Glove, Trout will probably play a bit more left field in his sophomore campaign. He might not be able to rob as many homers in left, but it'll spare his body some. I expect his hitting will regress a bit, but I'm sure he'll still be a great leadoff player and a formidable threat.
CF- Peter Bourjos- It remains to be seen how much playing time Bourjos can expect, or if he'll still be an Angel come April, but I'm hoping he stays and gets some playing time. He's a force to be reckoned with in center, and he'll probably do well in the 2 or 9 hole (or 1 if Trout is moved out of the leadoff position)
RF- Josh Hamilton- It'll be a few more years before we know if the deal was a good one or a bad one, but we should still see some elite production in 2013.
LF/RF/DH- Mark Trumbo- How much playing time Trumbo gets depends on if he plays like the first half or the second half Trumbo. I'm guessing we'll see something in between and Trumbo will be in a kind of platoon with Bourjos and Morales. If he gets another chance at third and improves there then he'll probably end up playing there pretty often.
LF/RF- Vernon Wells- the only reason Wells is still on the roster is that $21 million salary. Unless he improves significantly, I don't expect him to see much playing time. The Angels are simply too deep. I'm sure JeDi is trying to trade him, but honestly, who would take him? Maybe he can start filling the water coolers or learn to catch bullpen.
The Angel's defense looks great and their offense will likely be one of the best in the majors. The outfield might even be a little too deep (though I don't believe there can be such a thing), so if there's a player traded, expect it to be one of the guys from there, most likely Bourjos (although it could also be Trumbo or Morales).
So, assuming all of the players I've listed makes the team (except one of Maronde/Cassevah), that would leave the Angels with one extra spot. I'm doubtful the Angels will make any more signings (other than minor league deals before Spring Training a lå Isringhausen/Hawkins), so that last spot would probably go to either Cassevah (if Maronde stays up and the Angels want to go with 13 pitcher, although that seems unlikely), Cole Kalhoun (probably not, since the Angels have so many outfielder already), John Hester, or Andrew Romine. My money's on Andrew Romine due to his versatility.
So, that's the team! I think it looks pretty good, definitely the best the Angels have had for a few years. If the Angels can't make the playoffs in 2013, that falls solely on management. Let me know if I made any mistakes and what you think!

Poetry Night 2013
An Evening of Poetry and Conversation with Christian Wiman and Pattiann Rogers
Friday, October 25, 7 p.m.
L.V. Eberhard Center, 2nd floor
Robert C. Pew Grand Rapids Campus
Reading followed by book signing and reception
A native of West Texas, Christian Wiman graduated from Washington and Lee University and later taught at Stanford, Yale, Northwestern, and the Prague School of Economics. During his editorship of Poetry, the magazine's circulation has tripled and its influence widened around the world. A strong believer in the magazine's famous, 100-year-old "Open Door" policy, Wiman has consistently published formalists alongside experimentalists, as well as greatly expanding the range of prose in the back of the magazine. In 2011 Poetry won two prestigious awardsfor general excellence and for best podcastfrom the American Society of Magazine Editors.
Editor of Poetry Magazine from 2003 to 2013, Christian Wiman is also the author of four books of poetry and two collections of essays. In the New Yorker, poet and critic Dan Chiasson chose Wiman's Every Riven Thing (Farrar, Straus and Giroux, 2010) as one of the eleven best poetry collections of the year, writing "Every poem seems made to steady and fortify him against mortality." Wiman's other collections include The Long Home (Copper Canyon, 2007), which won the Nicholas Roerich Prize; Hard Night (2005); Stolen Air, translations of Osip Mendelstam (Ecco, 2012); and the nonfiction collections Ambition and Survival: Becoming a Poet (Copper Canyon, 2007) and My Bright Abyss (FSG, 2013). He has been the recipient of both the Ruth Lilly and Wallace Stegner fellowships and was recently appointed to the faculty of the Yale Institute of Sacred Music as Senior Lecturer in Religion and Literature.
"One of the preeminent devotional poets of any faith now writing in English." David Rothman
"Christian Wiman is fiercely dedicated to describing experiences for which there are no words. Few contemporary poets invite us to consider new ways of looking at those experiences as openly, intensely, and originally as he does." TriQuarterly
Pattiann Rogers has published thirteen books, most recently The Grand Array: Writings on Nature, Science, and Spirit (Trinity University Press, 2010) and Wayfare (Penguin, 2008). Her newest book of poems, Holy Heathen Rhapsody, has just been published by Penguin in September 2013. She has also published a book-length essay, The Dream of the Marsh Wren, and A Covenant of Seasons, poems and monotypes, in collaboration with the artist Joellyn Duesberry.
Rogers is the recipient of two NEA Grants, a Guggenheim Fellowship, and a Literary Award in Poetry from the Lannan Foundation. Among other awards, her poems have received five Pushcart Prizes, two appearances in Best American Poetry, five appearances in Best Spiritual Writing. Song of the World Becoming, Poems, New and Collected, 1981-2001 (Milkweed Editions) was a finalist for the Los Angeles Times Book Prize and an Editor's Choice in Booklist. Firekeeper, Selected Poems was a finalist for the Lenore Marshall Award and a Publishers Weekly Best Book of 1994. In 2000, Rogers was a resident at the Rockefeller Foundation's Bellagio Study and Conference Center in Bellagio, Italy.
Pattiann Rogers has taught as a visiting writer at several universities, including Arkansas, Montana, Texas, Washington University and Pacific University. She is the mother of two sons and has three grandsons. She lives with her husband, a retired geophysicist, in Colorado.
According to The Georgia Review, Rogers's poems "have startling breadth, often engaging scientific, theological, and artistic modes of perception simultaneously without ever losing a central focus or a syntactical sense of direction."
And from Orion, "Through Rogers's curiosity, wit, boundless love of the world, and remarkable dexterity as a poet, we are altered."

Tight end Beau Sandland grew up in Simi Valley, Calif., about 2,800 miles away from the Greentree Practice Fields in Coral Gables.
Though Sandland didn't follow college football, he couldn't help but notice the University of Miami's impact at his position — from Jeremy Shockey to Kellen Winslow Jr. — every Sunday when he watched NFL games.
"You say 'The U' and everybody knows what you're talking about," Sandland said. "The list goes on and on. I could sit here and go on for an hour all the guys in the league and Pro Bowl and everything like that. That's another thing — the tradition of tight ends here is second to none. Obviously nobody else has produced as many tight ends in the league."
Sandland, the top-rated junior college transfer at his position, caught 24 passes for 267 yards and three touchdowns in eight games with Los Angeles Pierce College in 2012, earning All-Pacific Conference honors.
Despite having one official visit left, Sandland committed to UM following his trip in December.
He spent time getting to know quarterbacks Stephen Morris and Ryan Williams, as well as offensive linemen Brandon Linder and Shane McDermott.
The 6-6, 255-pounder, named a four-star recruit by Rivals.com, felt the type of offense suited him perfectly. It's tight end-friendly, especially in goal-line, short-yardage situations.
"He's doing good, he's just got to get a little bit more comfortable with his in-line blocking on the line of scrimmage," said coach Al Golden, who played tight end at Penn State. "But he's willing, he's just not skilled there yet with his toolbox. He's a big man with very soft hands, he's very smart and can get down the field."
Since the start of spring practice, returners Clive Walford and Asante Cleveland have pulled Sandland and the newcomers to the side and shown them what to do.
In 2012, Walford recorded a career-best 135 yards in a win over South Florida, which marked the second-most for a UM tight end in program history behind Greg Olsen's 137 against Florida State in 2005.
He finished with a touchdown in each of the final three games of the season and at least one catch in all 12.
That contrasts with the 2011 statistics, when there were just 27 catches, 260 yards and two touchdowns between Walford and Chase Ford.
Sandland, whose high school football team won just seven games over his four years, didn't see many recruiters come through.
Not only that, but he was also a non-qualifier because of a pair of classes he didn't know he needed to take until it was too late.
"It's night and day better than high school and junior college," Sandland said of Miami. "It was really a blessing in disguise. It's definitely a huge change. Everybody out there's good."
Linder hobbling
Senior offensive lineman Brandon Linder was seen leaving practice on crutches with a brace on his knee. He started all 12 games at right guard last season.
"He's got a little knee," Golden said. "We'll hold him out for a little while. It's not going to require surgery or anything, but we'll see what his status is. He'll be out for a little bit here."
Johnson a no-show
Linebacker Eddie Johnson, who was suspended indefinitely and is not listed on the official roster, was not at practice.
During his redshirt freshman season, Johnson recorded 59 tackles — 7 1/2 for a loss — with one sack, three forced fumbles and an interception in 10 games (eight starts).
"He's not enrolled right now, so we'll see what transpires in the future for him," Golden said. "I really have no idea. We're really not discussing it at this moment."
Switching sides
Redshirt freshman Jacoby Briscoe, a 6-5 302-pounder, moved from the defensive line to offensive guard.
"I just think there's a need there and he's got the perfect body type for it, and very pleased in his attitude and approach to going over there," Golden said. "Hopefully he'll really help us out and pay dividends."
• Former UM offensive coordinator/quarterbacks coach Jedd Fisch, who was hired by the NFL's Jacksonville Jaguars for the same position in January, attended practice.

Amarillo, TX - An international network of computer hackers had been planning to infiltrate American banks, according to a recent report. But as scary as that sounds, your personal security is probably not at much risk.
"Project Blitzkrieg" was a plot to steal information and money from American bank accounts over a long period of time.
Earlier today, the security firm McAfee released a report concluding the plan could have worked if it hadn't been found out.
The project was started by two Russian cyber-criminals about a year ago, one of whom is a high-profile cyber mafia leader.
The two recruited other hackers to help them carry out a massive cyberattack on 30 U.S. banks.
"There's a credible threat to the financial industry with the size of the botnet he's got deployed and the capabilities of stealing the user credentials for their banking accounts," says Solutionary research analyst Jeremy Scott.
The plan was to gain access to bank accounts, and take money in a series of relatively small transactions over time, to avoid detection.
But given enough accounts and enough time, the thieves could collectively steal millions of dollars.
"The more successful criminals out there have continued to do smaller transactions over time as opposed to one big huge move," explains Scott, "things like PayPal - anything that can move money, it's sitting there watching for you logging in so that they can steal those credentials."
The plan was already in a testing phase when it was discovered - at least three hundred bank accounts in the U.S. had been hacked.
Of course, since the plan has been discovered, it can't succeed - but more plans like it are sure to follow.
Financial institutions are regular targets of cyber attacks, and so most have their own security systems and plenty of experience dealing with cyber security.
You can protect yourself by keeping a close eye on your accounts, and having a good working relationship with your bank.
If you'd like to learn more about Project Blitzkrieg or read the security report for yourself, follow the links attached to this story.

Volume 1 of a four volumes in 2 set. Almost a generation before Washington, Henry, and Jefferson were even born, two Englishmen, concealing their identities with the honored ancient name of Cato, wrote newspaper articles condemning tyranny and advancing principles of liberty that immensely influenced American colonists. The Englishmen were John Trenchard and Thomas Gordon. Their prototype was Cato the Younger (95-46 B.C.), the implacable foe of Julius Caesar and a champion of liberty and republican principles. Their 144 essays were published from 1720 to 1723, originally in the London Journal, later in the British Journal. Subsequently collected as Cato's Letters, these "Essays on Liberty, Civil and Religious" became, as Clinton Rossiter has remarked, "the most popular, quotable, esteemed source of political ideas in the colonial period." This new two-volume edition offers minimally modernized versions of the letters from the four-volume sixth edition printed in London in 1755.

After a fire closed the restaurant shortly after its opening, the team used the opportunity to re-imagine the design and streamline the offerings. With OAK's re-opening, Redizowski looks forward serving a refined New American menu, maximizing the unique flavor profile of the oak oven and grill.
Bit about Steven: With experience in iconic kitchens across the country over the past fifteen years, Chef Steven Redzikowski has finally achieved his dream of owning and running his own restaurant. Like many chefs before him, that dream started with humble beginnings at the young age of fifteen, working at a local pizzeria in his hometown of New York.

Bill Birns presents a weekly essay on history, geography, day-trips, arts and culture in the Catskill Mountain region.
For a while I've wanted to write a column about the native people who inhabited our mountains 400 years ago when Henry Hudson's Half Moon first opened our region to European ways. The problem is that the very idea of "The Native People of the Catskill Mountains" is framed in a particularly non-native way of thinking.
One summer in the mid '70s, I had a job teaching English to Japanese kids at Camp Forusato in Fleischmanns. In the '70s, the Japanese economy was cooking, globalism was in its infancy, and many Japanese people were living and working in the New York metropolitan area.
A Catskill Catalog: history, geography, day-trips, arts and culture in and around our Catskill Mountains. Pretty comprehensive. Covers about everything I might be interested in writing about, or so I thought until I visited my old friend Joe Hewitt.
The winters are long in the mountains. About February and March, a day of blue sky and sunshine seems as necessary and valuable as nourishment. So, on a beautiful, clear, cold Saturday afternoon, a pair of friends and I took a ride north on Route 30 to explore Vroman's Nose.
Harmonus DuMond has his own website. At least, someone in the 21st century maintains a website dedicated to the 18th-century Margaretville pioneer. DuMond headed one of the first four families to settle on the East Branch of the Upper Delaware River, back in 1763. Do a Google search on Harmonus DuMond.

Colts fire DC Coyer, replace with LB coach
The Indianapolis Colts today terminated the contract of Defensive Coordinator Larry Coyer. His interim replacement is the Colts' Linebackers coach.
Apparently there was some friction between Coyer and management over the style of defense he wanted to run. Something about moving away from the Tampa Cover 2, but I am not sure who was on which side. Sound famliar?
My Meeple is purple. What color is yours?
The Colts defense was more aggressive this week, and they won.
The Tampa 2 is outdated and difficult to run well in the best of times.

Answers FAQ
MRSA Infection FAQs
Reviewed by Charles P. Davis, MD, PhD
Take the MRSA Infection Quiz First! Before reading this FAQ, challenge yourself and
Test your Knowledge!
Q:MRSA describes a specific type of bacteria that are resistant to certain antibiotics. True or False?
A:True. Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) is a type of staph bacteria that is resistant to certain antibiotics, including methicillin, oxacillin, penicillin, and amoxicillin.
Q:Is MRSA contagious?
A:Yes. MRSA is highly contagious and anyone can get it. You can get MRSA the same way you can get a cold, such as by touching someone or something that has Staph bacteria on it and then touching your eyes, nose, or any scrape or abrasion on your skin.
Q:"Superbug" is a commonly used word to describe MRSA.
A:True. MRSA is often referred to as a "superbug," which is a nonspecific word that is used to describe any microorganism that is resistant to at least one or more commonly used antibiotics.
Q:Where are MRSA bacteria are most likely found?
A:In hospitals. In U.S. hospitals, MRSA causes more than 60% of Staph infections. Additionally, MRSA outbreaks occur in diverse types of people who are constantly in close contact, such as team players of contact sports, dormitory residents, inmates, and armed-services personnel.
Q:Some of us carry MRSA bacteria on our bodies. Where?
A:Noses. Approximately 25%-30% of us have Staph bacteria in our noses.
Q:What is the best defense against MRSA?
A:Good hygiene. The best defense against MRSA is good hygiene (especially hand washing). Note: There is no vaccine against MRSA.
Q:MRSA most often enters the body through droplets from coughing or sneezing. True or False?
A:False. MRSA most often enters the body through a cut or wound by direct contact. The key to preventing MRSA infections is for everyone to practice good hygiene: Keep your hands clean by washing thoroughly with soap and water or using an alcohol-based hand rub. Keep cuts and scrapes clean and covered with a bandage until healed. Avoid contact with other people's wounds or bandages. Avoid sharing personal items such as towels or razors.
Q:MRSA can cause sepsis, which is an infection of the blood. True or False?
A:True. Severe cases of MRSA can result in MRSA spreading into the blood and causing sepsis. The term sepsis is often used interchangeably with septicemia, a serious, life-threatening blood infection that progresses very quickly and is often fatal.
Q:A MRSA skin infection can often mimics a spider bite. True or False?
A:True. MRSA most often appears as a skin infection, like a boil or abscess. Many people who actually have a Staph skin infection often mistake it for a spider bite.
Q:What are complications of a MRSA infection?
A:"Flesh-eating" disease, pneumonia and death. Staph infections are known to cause pneumonia. In rare cases, a MRSA infection can be serious or fatal. Very rarely, Staph can result in necrotizing fasciitis, or "flesh-eating" bacterial infections. These are serious skin infections that spread very quickly.
Q:The skin condition cellulitis can be caused by MRSA or by other bacterial types. True or False?
A:True. MRSA is one of several bacterial types that can cause cellulitis, an infection of the deeper layers of skin and the tissues beneath. On the surface, the skin looks pink or red, like sunburn, and may be warm, tender, and swollen. Cellulitis may spread quickly over a few hours.

We want future students to know that at the University of Maine School of Social Work, we take pride in students having direct and frequent contact with faculty who know your name and understand your goals. We offer small classes, experiential learning, seminars, and exciting field internships.
Come Learn About Us: One of the best ways to learn about the UMaine School of Social Work BSW Program is for you to visit the campus, meet faculty, and ask questions about our program. If you can't make one of the regularly scheduled campus admissions events, you can schedule an informational interview, be put in touch with a faculty member or current student, or set-up a time to come by and observe a class. For a list of upcoming campus events go to: http://www.go.umaine.edu/
What is Social Work? If you want a career with meaning, action, diversity, satisfaction, and an abundance of options, social work is for you! Social workers are skilled professionals who work to empower individuals, relieve suffering, and affect social change. They are generalists and specialist who work in a wide variety of settings but apply common core values, principles, and techniques. For sheer variety, few occupations can match social work and the broad range of opportunities and settings it offers. Social workers work in mental health and healthcare, in child welfare and aging, in management and in clinical settings. They work in hospitals, schools businesses, public agencies, police departments, private practices, and many other interesting workplaces. They are mangers, therapists, community organizers, educators, and researchers. They are on the front lines and behind the scenes. They are in large cities and in small communities. Wherever people are, social workers are. (From: National Association of Social Workers (2006). Choices: Careers in Social Work. Pg 2-3
Social work is a distinctive profession that shares a commitment not only to work with individuals, families and small groups but also a commitment to institutional and societal change. As a profession, social workers maintain a primary commitment to disadvantaged, vulnerable, and economically deprived persons in our society. Social workers help people in dealing with relationships, solving problems and coping with the many social and environmental concerns which affect and control daily life. Historically, social workers led the fight for child labor laws, voting rights for women, and other progressive milestones. Social workers share a common set of professional values and ethics, and common set of basic or generic skills that enable them to work with diverse populations and fill diverse roles in a variety of settings.
How do I know if I'm suited to being a social worker? Only you can truly make the decision about whether you have what it takes to be a social worker and whether it is something you want to do. The social work profession is suited to people who are flexible, socially and politically aware, self-motivated, eager to learn over a life time, desirous of personal growth, altruistic, comfortable with ambiguity, and interested in changing social conditions that are adverse to healthy human development, self-determination and social justice.
How do I Apply? All undergraduate applications can be submitted directly through the Office of Admissions at: http://go.umaine.edu/apply/

Viobin - Prometol Wheat Germ Oil 570 mg. - 100 Capsules
Viobin Prometol Wheat Germ Oil 570 mg. is a unique, fortified wheat germ oil concentrate with d-alpha Tocopherol (derived from natural vegetable oils). Viobin Prometol Wheat Germ Oil 570 mg. is rich in Vitamin E, Policosanols, and Essential Fatty Acids such as linoleic acid and linolenic acid. These fatty acids, which are essential to the diet, provide the building blocks for a variety of polyunsaturated acids used as energy sources for structural lipids. Viobin Prometol Wheat Germ Oil 570 mg. contains no artificial stabilizers, preservatives or sugar. Viobin Prometol Wheat Germ Oil 570 mg contains approximately 14 IU vitamin E and 2000 mcg policosanols per capsule.
Viobin's wheat germ oil is a natural product rich in Vitamin E, polyunsaturated fatty acids, and a good source of both Omega 3 and Omega 6 fatty acids with zero cholesterol and zero trans fats. The oil is extracted from fresh, quality raw wheat germ by Viobin's "cold process" which protects the natural benefits of wheat germ oil.
What is Wheat Germ?
A grain of wheat is also known as the 'wheat kernel' or 'wheat berry'. This is the seed that grows into wheat grass as we see it in fields. Wheat germ is a very small part of a grain of wheat - approx 2.5% of the weight. The word 'germ' refers to germination, which is the reproductive part of the kernel that germinates and forms the wheat grass. You can add wheat germ to foods like protein shakes, cereals, toast or as part of general cooking.
As you can see from the diagram the wheat kernel is divided up into 3 distinctive parts:
Due to the high levels of nutrients contained in the wheat germ, it is extracted from the kernel and used as a supplement to create healthy meals.
Wheat Germ Benefits
If you ask any nutrition expert or dietitian you will no doubt receive a glowing indictment on the many benefits of wheat germ. However, if you ask a Doctor you may or may not receive such a positive response. As with any food that contains healthy vitamins and/or minerals, doctors will always argue with how much of a health benefit is actually derived from the substance.
The good news is that Wheat Germ does contain many of these vitamins and minerals that are needed to maintain the workings of our inner body – no matter how small. Millions of people take vitamin supplements every single day. Most people don't actually need these supplements as they are usually found in a normal healthy diet. However, in today's hectic lifestyle it is not always possible to maintain a healthy daily diet and we often seek out vitamin supplements to top up any deficiencies we may have.
Wheat Germ Can Be Used As A Natural Supplement
As with vitamin supplements, wheat germ can be used in the same way, but in a natural form.
Wheat germ is a good source of:
As you can see the benefits of wheat germ are quite substantial and it is particularly high in vitamin E - an antioxidant which is good for the skin and has anti-aging properties. Wheat germ also has a phytosterol content which has been shown to lower cholesterol and promote a healthy heart. In addition, wheat germ is a good source of omega-3 fatty acids. Omega-3 fatty acids helps to lower cholesterol and blood pressure as well as being important for nervous system functioning, and help elevate mood. Wheat germ is also a good source of fiber which has many benefits including improved bowel function and may reduce the risk of developing heart disease and diabetes and prevent weight gain.
The evidence regarding the benefits of wheat germ is pretty compelling to say the least. As a natural supplement to any form of deficiencies, wheat germ is certainly worth considering. Any natural food is preferable to taking man-made supplements.
About Viobin
Viobin USA, a leader in the manufacture of nutritional extracts and defatted wheat germ for over 75 years, was founded in 1936 by Mr. Ezra Levin whose strong commitment to nutrition, quality, and good health led Viobin Corporation into the manufacture of drugs, health food products, and nutritional supplements. Mr. Levin was truly a man ahead of his time; he developed a cholesterol-free defatted egg powder long before the modern day excitement over cholesterol. Also in the 1950's he pioneered methods for production of fish protein concentrate in an effort to fulfill his vision of feeding impoverished peoples all over the world. The next several decades molded Viobin into the present day role as the leading manufacturer in the United States of Wheat Germ Oil and Defatted Wheat Germ.
In December of 1996, McShares Incorporated of Salina, Kansas, purchased Viobin Corporation to increase and diversify its presence in the nutritional field; changing their name to Viobin USA. In May of 2010, Viobin USA achieved FSSC 22000 Certification. Their ongoing HACCP program and in-house Sanitation and Quality Assurance departments enforce Viobin's commitment to supply their customers with the highest quality ingredients and products. At Viobin USA, their lean manufacturing continually drives improvements to their products and processes.
Viobin U.S.A. continues to be a leader in the manufacture of nutritional extracts. They maintain the highest standard achievable in their manufacturing processes. Their raw material suppliers respect their demand for top quality material – ensuring your family receives the highest quality product available. There is a very good chance that you already use a product of Viobin in some form. Their wheat germ oil is a common constituent in many premium cosmetic and hair care products, nutritional bars, nutritional supplements for animals, as well as a supplement for humans. Their Defatted Wheat Germ can be found in many popular cereals, snacks, granola bars, and dozens of popular crackers.

PLAYBOY: Most people know you as Jay and Silent Bob, the slacker best friends from the movies Clerks, Dogma and Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back, among others. The characters have also been in comic books, a TV show and a feature-length cartoon that came out this spring. What's next for them, a musical?
SMITH: We want to do a projection—you know, like they did with Tupac Shakur. We're going to record a lot of shit now so that when we're gone, they can bring us out onstage.
MEWES: I think a video game would be pretty cool.
SMITH: Oh yeah. We've done some app games, but maybe a game where we're shooting at each other. Jay vs. Silent Bob—that might be badass. Can you imagine those guys armed to the teeth? All right, we just talked ourselves into it.
PLAYBOY: You've done 10 films together, not counting the upcoming Clerks III. Who owes their career to whom?
MEWES: I definitely owe everything to Kevin. I never would have thought to write a script or direct a movie or put somebody like me in it. It was all Kevin's idea.
SMITH: I truly feel my biggest creative influence is Mewes. The guy is unfiltered and fucking unfettered. I grew up in a world where things happen up here [points to head] and they go through a filter and get sifted before they come out here [points to mouth]. The beauty of Mewes is somebody pulled his filter out at birth. A thought pops into his brain and it immediately falls out of his mouth.
PLAYBOY: You two met in your hometown of Highlands, New Jersey. Were you instant BFFs?
SMITH: Not really. At first I was jealous of him. I started hanging out with him when I was 18 and he was 14. I inherited him from my friends Walter and Bryan. We were going to a comic book show in New York, and I was driving. So I showed up and Mewes was with them. He was Dennis the Menace but way dirtier. Everything was "pussy, pussy, pussy," even though he obviously hadn't seen a pussy since he'd sprung from one. And then, while we're on the highway, he takes out his penis.
PLAYBOY: Because…why exactly?
MEWES: I thought it was funny.
SMITH: He was like, "Man, is it cold in here or is it me?" And you look down and he's pulled his pants to his knees and he's sitting there with his dick out, flapping it, going "Naauugggg!" At first it was like, "Put that away!" After months of hanging out with him, you realize that's just what Jason does. I've seen his dick more than I've seen my own. So yeah, we weren't friends right away. It took a while to percolate, but now he really is my best friend. Every morning we get up at 10 a.m. and walk in the hills with our dogs. If you're driving around the Hollywood Hills, periodically you'll turn a corner and see Jay and Silent Bob walking their fucking dogs.
PLAYBOY: You co-host a podcast called Jay & Silent Bob Get Old. You're 38 and 42. Is that what counts as old now?
SMITH: The title is more about making fun of ourselves before somebody else does. It steals their thunder. I remember suggesting the title to Mewes and he got really defensive and uptight about it. He was like, "We're not old!"
MEWES: I don't feel old, but I'm definitely feeling older. For me, the "get old" part is more about our history. We've been doing this shit for 25 years. We've had ups and downs. We're not necessarily old, but you know.…
SMITH: [Laughs] You're still defensive about it. You're old, dude.
MEWES: Fuck that.
PLAYBOY: Jason, there have been more death rumors about you than about Paul McCartney. Is the sixth time someone reports you're dead as scary as the first?
SMITH: The first was definitely the scariest, I think for both of us. People magazine called, I think it was during the Bennifer era, when I was shooting Jersey Girl, and asked "Do you have a statement on the death of your friend Jason Mewes?" I hadn't seen Jason in months at that point. He was MIA, and I was like, "Oh God!" I gave a statement and hung up, and seconds later the phone rang again and it was fucking Mewes. He was like, "People are saying that I'm dead. But I'm not dead!"
MEWES: I had left California and was driving to Jersey to turn myself in.
SMITH: He had an outstanding warrant in New Jersey.
MEWES: It took me almost four months to drive across the country, because I kept stopping and partying. My sister called to tell me people were saying I was dead. My cousin passed away and I guess people thought it was me. They found him OD'd on the beach.
PLAYBOY: In your podcast and live shows, you both share intimate details about your sex life. How do your wives feel about that?
SMITH: My wife learned early on that our life was fodder for conversation. She heard me tell a story about the first time we had sex—I cut my dick on her jeans zipper and it started bleeding and we had sex anyway—and she was like, "What the fuck is your problem? You told people we had unprotected sex and you had an open wound on your dick." I was like, "Yeah, but it's sweet. We fall in love, we wind up together. It's a good story." It was baptism by fire for her.
MEWES: I told a story the other night about how my lady was doing hot yoga at the gym and she queefed and it was so loud the person next to her heard it. Afterward she was like, "I didn't say you could share that story!" She was embarrassed and a little upset.
PLAYBOY: You've worked with Ben Affleck and Matt Damon in Dogma, Chasing Amy and other films. Which one has the filthiest sense of humor?
MEWES: Ben.
SMITH: Absolutely Ben! I've kept e-mails from him from back in the day, just because they're so hysterical and filthy and wrong. Ben is one of the dirtiest people I've ever met, dirtier than Redd Foxx. He's probably cleaned up substantially now that he's married. I don't think his wife, Jennifer Garner, likes me very much. I worked with her on Catch and Release, and you could just tell she did not dig me or my sense of humor at all.
MEWES: Did you ever say anything to Ben?
SMITH: I talked to him about it at one point. I was like, "I don't get it. I say the same fucking shit you do." And he goes, "You don't think I say that kind of shit to my wife, do you? Kev, you have to know your audience."
PLAYBOY: A regular part of your live show is "Let Us Fuck," when you act out strange sexual positions with audience members. Has life ever imitated art?
SMITH: Have we tried any of those positions at home? I haven't. None of them look comfortable. There's never been one where I'm like, "Honey, tonight we're trying the Ewok Cock Block and the Donald Duck Mouth Fuck."
Mewes: The Ewok Cock Block would be the one to try.
PLAYBOY: Kevin, you once claimed that Jason had sex with Nicole Richie in a public bathroom. The tabloids reported it and caused a minor controversy. Jason, did that discourage you from having sex in public restrooms?
MEWES: I can't do stuff like that anymore. My lady is definitely not into it, even in my bathroom at home. I try, and she says, "I don't want to fuck in the bathroom."
SMITH: These are married women with beds. "Why should we do this?"
Mewes: Nothing against beds, but if I was still single, I'd be trying to do some bathroom situations. I can't remember the last time I had sex in public.
SMITH: What about on the beach in Australia?
MEWES: Oh yeah, right.
SMITH: The sad thing is, he did it more for the story. We were in Australia, and he said, "I'm going to try to have sex with my lady on the beach." I asked why, and he said, "Just so I can tell the story on a podcast."

Wine, Crossover Office, and Cedega
If you need to make a Windows application run on Linux, there is no better way than Wine. We investigated the free and commercial Wine variants to see how they bear up under real-life conditions.
In 1993, Sun Microsystems developed a small tool designed to let users run Windows applications in Solaris out of the box – that is, without needing to port the applications first. Just a few months later, the first attempt was made to make the tool run on BSD and Linux, and this step marks the birth of what has now become known as the Wine project. The name Wine, an acronym in typical GNU tradition, stands for "Wine is not an Emulator." And Wine [1] really isn't an emulator in the traditional sense. The tool neither emulates a different kind of CPU, nor, strictly speaking, an operating system. Instead Wine inserts itself as a translation layer between Linux and the Windows application the user wants to run. It intercepts any Windows API calls made by the application and attempts to convert them to equivalent Unix and X11 calls. From a technical point of view, Wine is a loader, which loads and
launches Windows programs, and a suite of libraries that translate or emulate Windows API calls.

New Orleans -- St. Tammany Parish Sheriff's Deputies are searching for a man wanted for pistol-whipping and robbing an elderly business owner. The incident occurred on September 30th, just after 7:00 p.m. at a store just off of Hwy 11 in Slidell.
Police say that the 80-year-old owner and an employee were closing the store when the perpetrator ran up to the pair from a nearby wooded area. The perpetrator pointed a handgun at the two men, demanding money. The perpetrator the struck the 80-year-old with the gun and stole an undisclosed amount of money.
After robbing the man, the perpetrator ran back into the wooded area he came from. The elderly man suffered a broken hip when he fell to the ground. Despite his fall, the man was able to give detectives a description of the armed man.
The man is described as an African-American man, approximately 5'8" to 6' tall with a muscular build. He was dressed all in black and was wearing a mask.
If you have any information that could help investigators find the perpetrator, you are asked to call St. Tammany Parish Detective Walter Matthews at 985-726-7845 or CRIMESTOPPERS at 504-822-1111. CRIMESTOPPERS is offering a $2500 reward for information that leads to the arrest and indictment of the person responsible. An anonymous donor has added $2500 to the total, making the grand total $5,000.

Learn how Gainesville, Georgia Fire Department manages their emergency access needs. Read More...
Around 10 years ago, Gainesville, Georgia adopted the International Fire Code for their community. This code grants the department the authority to require businesses to have a key box for emergency access. After adopting the code, Gainesville decided to implement the key box provision in their jurisdiction. After exploring their different options, they settled on the Knox System as the key box for their community.
Once the code was adopted, Gainesville began implementing the requirement for a key box. They started by incorporating the requirement into their current procedures for both new construction and existing buildings.
When a building is being built or remodeled, the project must go through the plan review process. The requirement for a key box was added to the review process and is treated no differently than any other requirement. Existing buildings were brought up to code during their annual inspection. Businesses were made aware of the requirement and the time frame to bring their building up to code. The key box requirement is just one of many checklist items that are reviewed and/or inspected during the annual inspection.
All businesses with a fire alarm or sprinkler system located in Gainesville's jurisdiction are required to have a key box. Smaller stores in strip malls are handled on a case by case basis and in many instances can share one box with the other businesses in the strip mall.
Gainesville has experienced many benefits from implementing the Knox System. They've been able to "eliminate waiting for a business owner" and been able to access minor problems much earlier. In the past, "if we couldn't see the smoke after doing the preliminary walk around, we couldn't tell they had a problem," said Fire Marshal Jerome Yarbrough. Now with a Knox-Box they're able to gain access without having to wait and resolve these smaller incidents before they grow.
Knox® KeySecure® unit installed in apparatus
Having a Knox-Box also helps the business owner save money. "If we have to pop a door open, the building owner is responsible for fixing or replacing the door," shared Yarbrough.
When a business needs a Knox-Box, they go through the Gainesville Fire Prevention Office. "We require all Knox purchases to be reviewed and signed off by the prevention office so we can track the orders." While the prevention office approves all orders, they do not have access to the actual boxes. "Only suppression can access the boxes," Yarbrough explained.
When a property owner receives their box from Knox, they contact the fire station that would normally respond to their location and not the fire prevention office. The station helps them determine where to install the box. Once the box is installed, the property owner arranges a time for the local fire crew to come out and lock up the box. This allows those who would normally respond to a call at that location to see where the box is located, verify the keys work and add the box location to the building's preplan. During a building's annual inspection, the engine company checks the Knox-Box. (Knox recommends that all Knox-Box units be inspected annually so that grit and debris can be prevented from making the box difficult to open.)
Gated communities have grown throughout the US in recent years, and Gainesville is no exception. While gates provide a sense of security by limiting access, during an emergency, responders need immediate access. Waiting for someone to open the gate wastes valuable time. While going through a locked gate results in property damage and can cause injury to responders. Most of the gates in Gainesville are equipped with a signal control activated device to access the gates, a Knox Key Switch is required as a manual backup in case the signal doesn't work or power is out. "It helps with response times," shared Yarbrough.
Gainesville recently took the step to install KeySecure units in all the apparatus to control their master key. These units collect an audit trail of when and who released the key, providing accountability for the master key. Additionally, they can tell if the key is missing just by looking at the KeySecure unit. "We haven't lost any keys. But to minimize the liability of a lost key, we decided to install KeySecure," shared Yarbrough.
Located 55 miles NE of Atlanta, the Gainesville Fire Department was established in 1876. A paid department since the early 1900s, the department covers 30 square miles with 4 stations and a staff of 103. They serve a daytime population of more than 150,000 due to the large number of businesses within their community – approximately 2,200 businesses. The population drops to 36,000 during the evening.

Camp Fire Recipe for Doughboys
Doughboy Heaven…bet you can't eat just one!Here's a campfire treat that's sure to be a hit...doughboys!! These little toasted "tubes" can be filled with your choice of fillings - chocolate syrup, jelly, pie filling, whipped cream - you get the picture - and enjoyed on the spot! Here's how to make your own doughboys:
You'll need a "stick" about 1 ½ inches in diameter and about 2 feet long (pick up an untreated wooden dowel at your local home improvement store and cut to length). Decorate the holding end with permanent markers – one stick for each camper (this makes a great campsite craft for you and your grandchild).
At the campfire, butter the doughboy end of the stick and using refrigerated biscuit dough and roll a single biscuit into a snake shape. Spiral wrap the dough on the buttered end of the stick making sure the dough is sealed on the sides and end - creating a "tube". Rotate/toast over the fire for about 5 minutes - until it's brown and easily slips off the stick (careful - they're hot). Fill and enjoy!

An official cause has been released in the explosion that leveled a home Thursday at the Jersey Shore.
FOX 29's Kelly Hessedal reported Friday night that she spoke by phone with the Lower Township police chief, who said it was a leak in a propane tank line that caused this explosion. The propane tank that was the source of the leak was located underneath the home.
It's unclear what caused the leak, although officials say they'll be looking into recent renovations that were being done on the house.
Cell phone video shot by neighbors captured the chaos before the fire department even arrived. Flames tore through the Villas home of 67-year-old Evelyn and Jim McCarty moments after their home exploded.
The blast shook the entire neighborhood.
Resident James Poulter, 21, was one of several who risked their own lives to step in to help. He said that as others held up the roof, he and a friend helped pull out Jim McCarty, who had been in the shower located toward the back of the home.
Fortunately, other neighbors had already pulled Evelyn to safety. She was found in a pile of rubble near the front of the home.
On Friday, several agencies, including the ATF, sifted through the aftermath.
Cape May County Fire Marshal Connie Johnson said that, in his 37 years with the department, this was some of the worst destruction he's ever seen.
But the couple's American flag remains standing.
We're told the McCartys remain in critical at the Crozier Chester Burn Center. Jim was burned from the waist down, while Evelyn suffered two broken legs.
Poulter said he was grateful to hear the two residents are expected to survive.
Hessedal has more details in this video report.

I don't have a picture of the actual car, but this looks as close as I could find. It may not be the right year, and I'm not sure it's the Dodge, since Cantrell made bodies for almost all of the auto makers.
I spent most of the day helping my brother move his 1946 Dodge Woodie from Co. Springs to Denver where he now lives. It came with an interesting story. The original owner purchased it just after Dodge was released from making ambulances on their truck frames. The owner and his son rode the train to Long Island and then spent two weeks driving it back to Estes Park, Colorado. It was used to haul guests to their dude ranch and back to the train station. When the dude ranch closed, the family kept the property for summer vacations and would fire up the Woodie, drive it into town shopping, etc. This one may be unique in that it is on a truck chassis, not an auto chassis. It's 95% original, the canvas top was replaced. We actually had a guy follow us for about 5 miles that wanted to know more about it as he also has a Woodie. Thought some of you guys might find this interesting.
The picture is from http://www.coachbuilt.com

22 ounce bomber, Bottle 95, Rare batch 156. Purchased at the Warren Store.
Pours medium honey amber, hazed, khaki head, long lasting, frothy, high quality looking all the way, leaves tongues of sheeting and nice looking stands and bits of lace. Nice looking brew. Silky smooth, rich and chewy
The sniff reveals waves of sweet malt, honey, vanilla.
Flavorful, super smooth, maltolicious offering. Maple, vanilla, honey all noted. Smoke, wood undertones. Softly biting hops come in late.
Luxorious fall/winter offering. Well crafted, delicious, understated yet bold, mild yet heady at 9%. Well worth seeking out.

On tap at the SIPtember fest at Mad River Glen.
Pours a nice light golden color with a bit of lacing that stays for a while. Aroma is nice and maple with some sugar and sweetness.
Taste is nice and maple as well, some sugary notes and a bit wheaty. Very nice! A bit of nice light malt character as well, but almost no hops to it.

Bomber shared by Bubba83 on BA.
Pours hazy amber in color with a one-finger light khaki head and some lacing.
The aroma is big cardboard box, maple, and sweet malts. Could be a little oxidized or something.
The flavor is rather oxidized. Cardboard is the dominant flavor note. Besides that it's caramel malt, slightly sweet, and maple syrup.
Medium bodied with average carbonation.
Not great overall, definitely a bit off. I wonder if this is how it always is or if something happened to this bottle.

650 mL bottle poured into a snifter.
Appearance - Deep copper with a decent off white head. Chunky collar. Clear body.
Smell - Bland aroma. Mapley. Slightly metallic aroma.
Taste - Much more mapley. Sweet and caramely. A little too sweet. No bitterness. No complexity. Kinda blah also.
Mouthfeel - Sweet and then dries out just a touch. Needs it.
Overall - Very uninspired. I like maple beer, but this is dull.

22 oz foiled topped bomber into a couple of snifters. This was from Batch #152 Bottle # 57.
Pours a hazed, rose-hued amber, topped with a tight finger of creamy off-white head. This retains with a thin layer of bubbly froth, which just rings the sides with robust foamy lacing. The aroma is VERY smooth in the nose, with the sugary and slightly roasted character of the molasses mixing with a rather robust fruitiness from some citric hops. Notes of bread and some caramel round out the back. You can just tell that this is heavy from the way it sits in the nose but the flavors keeps a silkiness to them that I'm digging.
The taste is sweet up front, with a backbone of bread and caramel. There is definitely an aggressive bitter edge to this from the hops, along with some quite flavorful fresh citric notes of orange and lemon. The molasses is not overdone at all and a has a bit of a burnt roastiness of it's own going on, as it mostly stretches through whole way through but is REALLY coming out to me in a flush across the back end of the profile. The finish is a combo of dry, roasty, bitter, and earthy but it's the residual sugars from the molasses that linger the most. The mouthfeel is medium bodied, with a crisp yet creamy feel that is equal parts lively and bubbly on the tongue. I just can't stress enough though how ridiculously smooth and easy this is for a 9% beer. No alcohol is detected whatsoever and I would have never guessed how big this was, except for the warmth that slowly started to creep across my face as I was working on this.
Wow, this was a VERY pleasant surprise that slowly worked its magic on me and a buddy as we got through two bottles of this. I think that this is one of those beers that you have to "get" and this completely worked for me. I loved how the molasses worked with the bright citric fruit notes and that big but approachable body makes for some fantastic sipping during those cold late fall nights. This beer just screamed Vermont to me. I nominate this as the official state beer!

Got as an extra in a recent trade. Thanks a lot, Greg.
Pour is a mostly clear orange, with a head the color of the San Francisco Giants' home uniforms. A thin cap of bubbles of varying sizes sticks around pretty well, though the glass is bereft of appreciable lacing.
Aroma is... not what I expected. This seems to me to be akin to an American Strong Ale. Boozier than I would have anticipated. Maple is barely, barely there. Vanilla is noticed when breathing out. Booze.
As boozy as it is in the aroma, the alcohol is pretty well-hidden in the taste. Still a stunning lack of maple though. Caramel apple, some breadiness. Solventy, slightly astringent. Medicinal in the long finish.
Mouthfeel: Way too thin. Pretty smooth, adequately carbonated, but this beer is very, very light-bodied.
Drinkabiliy. Eh. I can't see myself putting down much of this.
This isn't a bad beer, but it's not very good. I'm glad I got a chance to try this, and I will seek out other Lawson's in the hopes that this beer is an anomaly, but I don't ever think that this beer will grace my lips again.

Opaque caramel-amber body with 2" of off white head.
The smell is bready with caramel and maple syrup.
The taste is undeniably maple syrup. It's sweet but cut with a earth bitterness.
Mouthfeel is medium bodied with good carbonation.
It's pretty basic but still very tasty. I enjoyed it very much.

Grabbed this bottle at the beverage store in Winooski this morning. Fills the glass with a nice chestnut colored body and a creamy ivory colored head. Sweet but not overly syrupy on the nose. Maple blends nicely with the malts and theres just a hint of medicinal-cough syrupy sweetness in the background.
Maple adds a nice touch to the palate but it doesn't play as nearly as strong a role as it does in some of Lawsons other maple beers (Faystons stout). Biscuity and toffee malt flavors pair well with it. A bit of a full bodied feel to it makes for a nice drink on a cool fall evening.

Sneakily cleared out the Warren Store with BeerTruth of this beer a mere hour before hitting SIPtemberfest :) Thanks to the wonder of hand bottling and signing I know there were only a limited number produced of this batch #66 of this, but thanks to the wonder of condensation, my bottle # is a blue felt tip pen mess of unreadable (#43?).
I poured this into my fancy "I spend way too much at Ithaca and get free shit" Excelsior tulip. I love the head (that's what he said) on this one, 2 fingers thick and it sticks around for a good minute before giving way to some real healthy lacing and thin white ring.
Ok I'm really not sure what to make of the nose on this. I get a hint of maple but then there is something else grassy (not hops) that is there as well. I'll have to come back and edit this sometime when I can put my finger on what I smell.
I'm loving that the maple flavor is really coming through on this, not just straight sweet sugar maple but real dark amber maple flavor, dark brown sugar but not too syrupy in the mouth. I still get that taste lingering after a few minutes but I have no problem with that. The carbonation on this is good. I want pancakes.
Oooooh yeah, 9%. Where? I don't really pick up the tell tale signs of higher ABV in the nose and not in the mouth until I start reaching the end of the bomber (and my sobriety). That is a + for drinkability, but I am finding now that the cloying maple sugar residue in the mouth is bringing it down a touch. A bomber will see its demise by my mouth, but not two.
P.S. Is this really a "fruit beer"? Unless I am failing at life again and do not understand the definition of "fruit", this contains none.
