|Hot days of Summer
|Saturday, August 31, 2013 12:03 AM
We all know it's been hot-hot-hot, but the corn and the beans sure look good. Some of the corn must be seven feet tall. Here we are at the end of August and fall colors are just around the corner. I love autumn and I even like winter but this hot humid stuff makes me be a prisoner of air conditioning. Many of us remember the days without air conditioning. My husband, Hups, said 1936 was one of the hottest summers, with many, many days over 100 degrees. They even slept out on the front lawn. I'm so glad we have air-conditioned churches, also.
We always did a lot of canning in the summer and didn't know what air conditioning was. My mother and I usually did our canning together, considered three hampers of tomatoes to be a good days work. We had the kettles of tomatoes cooking, with the hot steam rolling and then put the canner on and more steam would roll. We did peaches, tomato juice, stewed tomatoes, pickled red beets, green beans, apple sauce and more. We made ketchup, too. Our daughters helped when they got old enough.
Now some of them, along with their husbands do a lot of canning. In fact on this hot summer afternoon, Mary and Jim just came over and went to the basement to get all my empty canning jars from the old days. They even canned sauerkraut.
We canned pickles, too. Remember bread and butter pickles, Virginia Sweets and 14-day pickles? We had three- and five-gallon crocks of pickles sitting up on the countertop. Every day or two, we had to do something with the pickles. Some we even layered with grape leaves to enhance the taste.
My favorite method of canning was to use the Conservo. It was a double-decker canner. It was so nice to go to the cellar and look, with pride, at those cans of goodies. One year, we had over 100 cans of tomato juice plus what Mom had.
Some of my favorite things of summer are the fresh fruits and vegetables, especially the sweet corn. We are fortunate to have two really good farm markets in town and right outside of town.
Hummingbirds are also at the top of my list of favorites. My hummingbird feeder is hanging on a shepherds hook, just outside my "office" window. It's in the shade of an evergreen tree most of the day so the juice isn't so hot.
It's fun to watch those little birds fly in or just hover over, while they check things out. Last year we had trouble with ants getting into the feeder, so this year we outsmarted the ants by putting axle grease or Vaseline at the bottom of the shepherds hook near the ground. That solved the problem.
As my friend, Ruth, said: "Isn't it funny that the older we get, the more joy we get out of the little things." That is very true.
Hummingbirds like certain flowers such as the red Monarda (bee balm), trumpet vine, coral bells and other flowers that they can stick their little beak into. I intend to plant more Red Monarda is strategic areas, especially near the bird feeders or just outside my kitchen window, where I can observe them.
I have most of my flowers in containers this year. By planting in containers, I can care for them and pull the weeds as I sit in my chair. They do take plenty of water in containers so my garden hose is always handy.
I have cardinals, gold finches and rose finches too. Once in a while a blue jay flies in.
I noticed that the finches like zinnias. I also have the squirrels, both black and gray. They have such a carefree life, just chasing each other up and down the trees and going to the bird feeder. I also have some beautiful butterflies.
Delphos is famous for all the ducks on the canal. We often have to wait as they cross the street. Did you see the buzzards flying around town this summer? I've heard they have taken up residence in some trees in the northeast section of town. Keep your eyes open to the skies and you might see one the eagles that nest out along the Auglaize River or the heron (fish crane) that nest in a woods near Fort Jennings.
Have you noticed that some robins seem to stay all winter……wonder where they spend the cold winter. So much for the birds.
Have you ever tasted pumpkin blossoms? I planted pumpkins in my little garden area of the flower bed just for the blossoms. However, my crop was not so good. My neighbors, Chuck and Alice, had a bumper crop so they shared with me. Oh! So good!
Let me share a new cucumber recipe with you. My daughter, Karen, introduced this recipe to me and it is almost a dessert.
1 cup low fat mayonnaise
¼ cup sugar
4 teaspoons vinegar
½ teaspoon dill weed
4 medium size cucumbers, thinly sliced
3 green onions, chopped
I do not peel the cucumbers and I add a little chopped fresh dill. I like dill and it adds a little color to the salad.
The Diesnstberger III story will continue Sept. 14.
Enjoy the season!

Well the next and last chapter of what we fondly call out "Sunflower tree" has begun. In our efforts to be sure to tie it down with the winds that were expected in the past days, the lone Bungie cord frayed and broke. This left "I-lean" with no where to go but down, weighted top heavy, by the phenomenal number of blossoms she held. Last chapter is where she will give up her flowers to dry in the sun and allow the birds to eat her seeds and fuel up for the Autumn chill.
Chapter II of "The Sunflower TREE"

Mobile device operating systems are still more secure than those of desktop or laptop computers. But today's mobile spam and phishing attacks will increasingly be delivered via mobile malware networks.
Blue Coat Systems' 2013 Mobile Malware Report, released Monday, which analyzed requests from 75 million users worldwide, found that mobile threats are still a relatively small percentage of overall traffic, and mobile malware that breaks into the operating system of the phone is "still in its infancy."
[ Also on InfoWorld: IT sites more targeted by malware than sex sites, report says. | Learn how to greatly reduce the threat of malicious attacks with InfoWorld's Insider Threat Deep Dive PDF special report. | Stay up to date on the latest security developments with InfoWorld's Security Central newsletter. ]
But Sasi Murthy, Blue Coat's senior director of product marketing, said that as cyber criminals adapt to the behavior of mobile users, those threats will increase and become more varied.
With 70 percent of employees surveyed across the corporate network using a personal smartphone or tablet, according to an IDG Global Mobility Study, this is an attack surface much to big to ignore.
In particular, the report said that malnets, which are well established in the desktop world, are jumping to mobile. Malnets are built by infecting a user's computer with a Trojan. That compromised computer is used by a botnet to lure new users by various means such as spam email. That infrastructure is then used to launch wider attacks.
The report said that before 2012, "malnets primarily served malicious Java apps and made little effort to expand." But in February 2012, malnets targeting mobile users showed noticeable activity.
In 2012, mobile traffic to malnets increased to 2 percent of overall malnet traffic. This growth is further evidence that mobile malware is poised to make an impact in 2013," the report said.
It said the growth was driven by eight unique malnets in 2012. Three - Narid, Devox and Criban - targeted mobile devices exclusively while the others expanded to include mobile devices. "Narid and Devox are no longer active malnets. Criban continues to show a low level of activity with 83 new hosts over the past year. The maximum number of hosts used in a given day was three," the report said.
The report cited one attack in which the malicious download was recognized by only 10 of the 41 antivirus engines in VirusTotal. "During the same week that this attack occurred, one of the mobile malware malnets used 38 domain names and another used 14 domain names for(a variety of sites that were involved in attacks," it said.
The vulnerability to malware, at least according to some experts, is not due to major holes in mobile operating systems. David Rogers, a mobile security expert and owner of Copper Horse Solutions, said mobile OSs and their underlying hardware "are getting very advanced in terms of security."

PSU shattered a 118-year-old scoring record, scoring an amazing 837 points (55.8 ppg). His squad also set the NCAA all division records for rushing (5,320 yards) and total offense (8,976 yards).Beck's teams led Division II in scoring in two of the last six years (2004, 2006) and ranked in the top two nationally in total offense three times in the last six seasons (2004, 2005, 2006). His squads ranked among the national rushing leaders every season, leading Division II in 1995 (318.8 ypg) and 2004 (354.7 ypg). Beck's "multiple choice" option attack also compiled 16,483 passing yards (216.9 ypg) and 143 aerial touchdowns during the last six years.Pitt State averaged a staggering 38.8 points and 442.5 yards of total offense per game during his tenure as offensive coordinator.Prior to assuming the offensive coordinator's role, Beck served two years as Pitt State's defensive coordinator (1992-93).

He is 2-0 vs. LU.Lincoln's Mike Jones is in his third year leading the Blue Tigers. Jones (Missouri, '91) has guided Lincoln to a 3-22 (.120) record in his two seasons. He is 0-2 vs. Pitt State.The Pitt State-Lincoln SeriesThis will be the ninth all-time meeting between the Gorillas and the Blue Tigers in a series that dates back to the 1981 season.Pitt State holds an unblemished 8-0-0 advantage in the series, averaging a 48-6 victory over Lincoln in those games.The Gorillas are 2-0 against the Blue Tigers in games played at Jefferson City.Pitt State posted a 59-17 victory over Lincoln last year in Pittsburg on Sept. 22. Quarterback Tony Abenoja passed for 116 yards and one touchdown on a five-of-six passing performance, while John Brown returned a punt 68 yards for a touchdown to pace the Gorillas.PSU's Regular Season SuccessPitt State has won 259 of its last 305 regular season games, posting a phenomenal 259-44-2 (.852) mark during the past 29 seasons (1985-2013).PSU is 142-14-1 at home, 111-22-1 on the road and 4-8-0 at neutral sites in the regular season during that span.Pitt State in the AFCA Top 25 PollPitt State has been ranked in Division II's top 10 97 times in the last 181 polls and the Gorillas have been ranked in the top 25 poll in 155 of 181 weeks overall (dating back to the 1999 season).The Gorillas were preseason ranked in the NCAA Division II top 25 for the 22nd time in the last 24 years in August when Pitt State was tabbed at No. 21. PSU has been ranked in all but one (2010) week two poll this century.Gorillas on the RoadPitt State has posted a 63-21-0 (.750) record in its last 84 road games (including post-season play). The Gorillas are 74-23-1 (.760) on the road since the start of the 1994 season.Lincoln has managed just a 4-11 record in home games since 2010. The Blue Tigers were 1-4 during home contests a year ago. Saturday's action will serve as LU's home opener.Ground Game PSU's Bread and Butter…Pitt State's success can be directly linked to its ability to rush the football.Since the 1986 season, PSU has rushed for 200-plus yards in 279 of 332 overall games. The Gorillas have posted a 2 48-31-1 (.888) record when they eclipse 200 yards rushing. Pitt State is an even more impressive 136-6-0 (.958) when it eclipses 300 yards rushing.By contrast, PSU is just 24-30-1 (.445) in the handful of games when it has been held below 200 yards rushing.Since 1986, PSU has rushed the ball for the highest yardage total among all NCAA Division II programs, with 95,788 yards (including postseason competition) for an average of 288.5 yards per game.The Gorillas currently rank 12th nationally in rushing, averaging 289.0 yards per game on the ground. Pitt State has rushed the ball 145 times for 867 yards (6.0 ypc) and 12 touchdowns.… But Don't Overlook PSU Passing AttackWhile it's no secret Pitt State's offensive success has been predicated on running the football, the Gorillas have unleashed a potent passing attack to compliment their stalwart running game.Since the start of the 2004 season, the Gorillas have passed for 23,760 yards and 179 TDs, averaging 226.3 passing yards and 1.7 touchdown passes per game in the last 105 outings.In 2012, quarterback Tony Abenoja established a new single-season passing record, averaging 233.0 passing yards per game.

The Gorillas have averaged 258.7 passing yards in their first three games with nine touchdowns and no interceptions. Quick Strike OffenseThe Pitt State offense has exhibited a penchant for being a "quick strike" unit.During the last nine seasons (2005-13), the Pitt State offense has generated 553 scoring drives (474 TDs, 79 FGs) and averaged just 2:52 of elapsed time per drive.2005 97 scoring drives (86 TDs, 11 FGs) 2:40 elapsed time 2010 41 scoring drives (34 TDs, 7 FGs) 3:04 elapsed time2006 79 scoring drives (72 TDs, 7 FGs) 2:14 elapsed time 2011 78 scoring drives (60 TDs, 18 FGs) 2:54 elapsed time2007 64 scoring drives (55 TDs, 9 FGs) 3:02 elapsed time 2012 51 scoring drives (40 TDs, 11 FGs) 2:58 elapsed time2008 69 scoring drives (61 TDs, 8 FGs) 3:23 elapsed time 2013 25 scoring drives (22 TDs, 3 FGs) 2:21 elapsed time2009 49 scoring drives (44 TDs, 5 FGs) 3:21 elapsed timeThe Gorillas have been highly successful when they are quick out of the gates. Pitt State has scored on its opening drive 48 times (40 TDs, 8 FGs) in the last 99 games, posting a 45-3 (.938) record in those games. By contrast, Pitt State is 27-24 (.529) in games it doesn't score on its opening drive during the same span.Pitt State Displays Prolific OffenseThe Pitt State offense has asserted itself as one of the top units in NCAA Division II the past 10 seasons (2004-13).Pitt State's high octane "multiple choice" offense ranked either No. 1 or No. 2 nationally in both scoring and total offense in three of the last seven seasons.In 2004, PSU staked its claim as the most prolific offense in the history of NCAA football, leading Division II in scoring (55.8 ppg), rushing (354.7 ypg) and total offense (598.4 ypg).Pitt State broke the NCAA's 118-year-old all-time all division scoring record with 837 points, besting the old mark of 765 points set by Harvard in 1886.

The last time global negotiations collapsed like this was in
When the climate talks in
De Boer might pretend that this is just a temporary hitch, but he knows what happens when talks lose momentum. A year ago I asked him what he feared most. This is what he said. "The worst-case scenario for me is that climate becomes a second WTO … Copenhagen, for me, is a very clear deadline that I think we need to meet, and I am afraid that if we don't then the process will begin to slip, and like in the trade negotiations, one deadline after the other will not be met, and we sort of become the little orchestra on the Titanic."
We can live without a new trade agreement; we can't live without a new climate agreement. One of the failings of the people who have tried to mobilize support for a climate treaty is that we have made the issue too complicated. So here is the simplest summary I can produce of why this matters.
Human beings can live in a wider range of conditions than almost any other species. But the climate of the past few thousand years has been amazingly kind to us. It has enabled us to spread into almost all regions of the world and to grow into the favourable ecological circumstances it has created. We enjoy the optimum conditions for supporting seven billion people.
A shift in global temperature reduces the range of places which can sustain human life. During the last ice age, humans were confined to low latitudes. The difference in the average global temperature between now and then was 4C. Global warming will have the opposite effect, driving people into higher latitudes, principally as water supplies diminish.
Food production at high latitudes must rise as quickly as it falls elsewhere, but this is unlikely to happen. According to the body that summarizes the findings of climate science, the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, the potential for global food production "is very likely to decrease above about 3C". The panel uses the phrase "very likely" to mean a probability of above 90%. Unless a strong climate deal is struck very soon, the probable outcome is a rise of 3C or more by the end of the century.
Even in higher latitudes the habitable land area will decrease as the sea level rises. The likely rise this century – probably less than a meter – is threatening only to some populations, but the process does not stop in 2100. During the previous interglacial period, about 125,000 years ago, the average global temperature was about 1.3C higher than it is today, as a result of changes in the earth's orbit around the sun.
A new paper in the scientific journal Nature shows that sea levels during that period were between 6.6 and 9.4 meters higher than today's. Once the temperature had risen, the expansion of sea water and the melting of ice caps in Greenland and
As people are displaced from their homes by drought and rising sea levels, and as food production declines, the planet will be unable to support the current population. The collapse in human numbers is unlikely to be either smooth or painless: while the average global temperature will rise gradually, the events associated with it will come in fits and starts – in the form of sudden droughts and storm surges.
This is why the least developed countries, which will be hit hardest, made the strongest demands in
The immediate reason for the failure of the talks can be summarized in two words: Barack Obama.
The man elected to put aside childish things proved to be as susceptible to immediate self-interest as any other politician. Just as George Bush did in the approach to the
The British and US governments have blamed the Chinese government for the failure of the talks. It's true that the Chinese worked hard to mess them up, but Obama also put
Why would he do this? You have only to see the relief in Democratic circles to get your answer. Pushing a strong climate program through the Senate, many of whose members are wholly-owned subsidiaries of the energy industry, would have been the political battle of his life. Yet again, the absence of effective campaign finance reform in the

|Years played
|2012, 7th round, 46th pick by Colts
Report: Colts seventh-rounders Conner, Fisher agree to contracts
The Colts have agreed to terms on deals with rookie CB-RS Ray Fisher and rookie LB Kavell Conner, according to a report from The Indianapolis Star.
AFC South training-camp reports
In the third installment in our series of training-camp reports, we look at the AFC South teams.
Colts' Session, Wheeler only going to get better
SLB Philip Wheeler and WLB Clint Session made major strides in 2009 in their second and third seasons, respectively. With Session now locked in at his natural position and Wheeler beginning the season a starter, even bigger things are expected ...
Patriots restocked roster after Super Bowl wins
We look at how defending Super Bowl champions drafted from 2000-09. Some teams — such as the 2005 Patriots, who drafted OG Logan Mankins — fared well, while others struggled.
Polian discusses approach to Manning negotiations
Speaking over the weekend, Colts president Bill Polian offered some insight as to how he is handling the ongoing contract talks with QB Peyton Manning's agent, Tom Condon, a situation that also faces the Patriots and QB Tom Brady.
Ugoh, Pollak getting second chances with Colts
The way we hear it, both Tony Ugoh, a second-round pick in 2007, and Mike Pollak, a second-round pick in '08, feel like they've been granted new leases on life in pursuit of possible starting OG berths this coming ...
Colts hoping for much more from DT Moala
It appears everybody connected with the Colts is envisioning a much bigger contribution in 2010 from DT Fili Moala, who played very sparingly in his rookie season.
Colts sign FS Bethea to new contract
The Colts have one fewer contract concern to worry about after announcing the signing of restricted free-agent FS Antoine Bethea to a new contract early Friday afternoon.
Focused Peyton will keep Colts atop division
Despite some chinks in their state-of-the-art armor, the Colts figure to remain on an elite course as long as Peyton Manning continues giving his all.
Contract issues cloud Colts' minicamp
Sources on the scene at the Colts' mandatory minicamp said there was no denying the camp-long concern created by the absences of three Pro Bowlers — WR Reggie Wayne, DE Robert Mathis and FS Antonie Bethea.
Expectations doubled for Colts rookie Fisher
No Colts rookie will be counted on more this coming season than seventh-rounder Ray Fisher, who the team hopes will pick up the slack in a shorthanded CB corps, in addition to returning kickoffs.
Colts rookie CB Thomas could miss season
The Colts announced Friday that rookie CB Kevin Thomas, the team's third-round pick in last month's draft, suffered a knee injury in the team's rookie camp that could cause him to miss the 2010 season.
McClendon could crack Colts' starting O-line
We hear the only Colts rookie with a real shot at becoming a starter right away is fourth-round draft pick Jacques McClendon, who is expected to get a shot at competing for one of the starting OG jobs.
2010 draft choices by team: Colts
Here are the players who were chosen by the Indianapolis Colts in the 2010 NFL draft.
Colts excited about return of Sanders, Gonzalez
No matter how successful a draft the Colts have this year, they figure to benefit immensely from the return to action of Bob Sanders and Anthony Gonzalez, two key players who were out with injuries much of last season.
The Indianapolis Colts have waived Harnish, the 2012 Mr. Irrelevant, so they could sign tight end Weslye Saunders.||||||| Harnish, who grew up in Bluffton, Ind., was the final draft selection in April and made the active roster but was inactive for all five games this season.
Harnish, who was taken with the 253rd and final pick of the draft Saturday, didn't just get a title and a vacation. He got a chance to play for his favorite NFL team and potentially to be a backup for Andrew Luck.||||||| First, he'll make the trip to Disneyland, appear in the Irrelevant Week parade in Newport Beach, Calif., and put his Colts license plate back on his car. Hey, it's OK. He's an Indiana native. It was the first time since 1967 that a non-expansion team had the first and last picks in the draft and only the third time in league history. Neither of the previous teams, Houston in 2002 and Philadelphia in 1949, chose a quarterback with both picks.

Pope Francis, at least for 15 minutes or so, has become a darling of the left.
It likely won't last. If he has the temerity to reassert the church's position on "social issues," he will once again become the religious extremist, bigoted leader of an outdated institution deserving only scorn and ridicule.
But, for the moment, he is way cool. The pope's recent encyclical is seen as an attack on capitalism, especially as it is practiced in the United States. He's blaming America first! How awesome is that?
And, indeed, the pope does decry what he calls "the idolatry of money." He declares the alleged benefits of "trickle-down" economics "have never been confirmed by the facts," and that our "throw-away culture" throws away the poor.
This had the Los Angeles Times salivating, figuring it would likely "cause Wisconsin GOP Rep. Paul D. Ryan some distress."
No word from the paper on any possible distress for Democratic millionaires in Congress whose charitable giving is slim to none, and for whom "compassion" consists of spending other people's money.
But it is strange that the left suddenly thinks the pope's words should have any influence on government policy in the United States.
If he or any Catholic leader affirms the church's position on abortion, gay marriage or female clergy, they are immediately told to stop imposing their morality on the rest of us or trying to violate the separation of church and state.
If the pope is allowed no standing in those areas, why is he welcome in others? Could it be because those on the left perceive him to be attacking their enemy – capitalism? How convenient.
Actually, if they bother to read the whole document, their ardor for the pontiff may cool. The alleged attack on capitalism takes all of about four of 84 pages. The majority of it is about evangelism – proclaiming the Gospel to nonbelievers in an effort to convert them to Catholicism.
That, even through persuasion rather than force, is anathema to the left.
And even the part they are applauding deserves some examination. It turns out I have some common ground with the far left: I don't believe the Pope is infallible. He himself says numerous times in his encyclical that context is important.
For example, his denunciation of unfettered capitalism is welcome. But capitalism in the United States is the opposite of unfettered. It is drowning in regulation – enough to discourage entrepreneurs, many of them minorities.
The pope is obviously correct that there is inequality in the United States, as is the case everywhere. The more important point is that this nation remains the destination for millions from other countries.
If, as self-appointed scold Noam Chomsky declares, America hates its poor, why do we provide them with billions of dollars worth of food stamps and other benefits? Why are they not fleeing our borders for Mexico, instead of the other way around?
Yes, the pope is correct that there is greed in the United States. But all we hear is about corporate greed. What should we call it when public employee unions – particularly those in public safety – demand work schedules that the rest of us could only dream about, make double or even more what the average taxpayer they "serve" makes, and get benefits grossly out of proportion with those in the private sector?
Does the fact that they are "only" making tens of thousands more than average taxpayers, instead of hundreds of thousands, mean they get a pass? Is greed only a matter of degree?
The pope lumps "exclusion" and "inequality" together as factors that create an economy that "kills." That is only half right.
Yes, the ideal should be to banish exclusion; equal opportunity is one of America's sacred goals. But equal opportunity does not guarantee equal results. To demand that is as absurd as me demanding that I make the NBA because I tried as hard as Kobe Bryant.
The anti-capitalists are especially excited at the pope's smackdown of the "trickle-down" economic theory, which he contends has never brought about "greater justice and inclusiveness in the world … (and) expresses a crude and naïve trust in the goodness of those wielding economic power …."
That point deserves a substantive response from conservatives. But, again, context is important. The pope should say how "trickle-down" theory, or capitalism in general, compares with socialism in the former Soviet Union or totalitarian communism practiced in China.
Those systems did not simply exclude some people; those in power slaughtered millions.
Does the pope think putting all the economic power in the hands of governments will be much better than keeping at least some of it in those greedy private hands?
Finally, the Bible does focus on helping the poor and treating them with dignity and respect. But it never says a secular government should be the source of that help. It also says: "If any will not work, let him not eat."
Does the pope think increasing incentives for the poor not to work is a worthy goal?
Like the left, I don't agree with all of Pope Francis's pronouncements. And that is the point: Nobody has to agree with everything he says. Nobody is required to be a Catholic.
But, the larger point is that the pope should also be welcome in the marketplace of ideas on economic morality or any other topic, including social issues. He should not be selectively banned from the public square.

Mostly clear golden amber color with a large, pillowy, off-white head that leaves fine stripes of lacing down the glass and sticks around the whole time.
The smell is the showcase for this one it would seem. Relentless citrusy, floral hops greet you at the pop of the cap. The pour releases them further; this beer by smell alone would pass for a DIPA.
Taste lets up a little bit but not much. Still plenty of cascade hops, some grapefruit, trace apricot. The epitomy of a west coast pale ale.
Not much separates this one from an IPA, except maybe a little more body and alcohol. Mouthfeel is overwhelmingly sharp and bitter, makes you pucker at the end, but if you were looking for balance, you picked up the wrong six-pack.
Drinkable enough for a hop head. I definitely wouldn't mind having this on hand all summer.

Smell: citrus hops and light malt
Taste: citrus hops--orange and lemon, light toasted malt
Mouthfeel: light bodied, moderate carbonation, semi-sweet start, slightly bitter middle--getting more bitter to the end, super clean.
Drinkability: Nicely blended APA that is very citrusy. I can tell it takes a lot of talent to get a brew to be this clean. Could session this one.

A thin, pale, lagerish ale. Clear gold with good head and lace, mild aroma of malts and bread crust. Generally sweet bready, caramel malts lead the way here, with a very light trace of hops near the finish. Hops are so mild it's hard to believe this is a west coast pale. This is the kind of beer you could drink all night when you'd rather be paying attention to the conversation with your buddies than focusing on what you're drinking. I can't think of a pale ale as easy to drink as this, and that more than makes up for the "lightness" of the brew.

This stuff is still around? I haven't seen this beer for days. Far inferior to their new line of beers.
Average appearance, a little more copper than gold. Aroma lacking.
Taste, not quite a mess, but lacking any direction, were they trying for an American pale or British? Tastes like neither. Lacking hop quality. Far more to the malty side than any of their pale/ipas they make currently.

Really charged bottles, lots of medium-bubbled head. Slightly murky orange/amber, on the pale side. Some small chunks. Aromatic caramelly aroma -- nice. Carbonation medium, adds to drinkability. Nice hoppy profile, not too overbearing, but citrusy/fruity. Malts are on the non-descript side. A little too acidic for me, but it is reasonably balanced and with a bite. Smell of the big head adds to flavor.

Appearance: With an upright semi-vigorous pour foaming white head isn't so big lacks the two finger ideal measurement but the lacing as it dwindles leaves behind a nice evenly dispersed ring over a golden amber hazed tone, nice looking pale ale. Aroma: Piney with honey bread tones at the edges the malt backbone is there in effect bringing a nice balance to each sniff. Taste: Fruity, bready edge from the bottle conditioned yeast sediment poured into my glass overall the piney hops ride a smooth refreshing wave of flavor down the ol' gullet, not too bad. Mouthfeel: Medium bodied ale with a good mix of hops and malt creating a nice smooth ride no shock and awe here. Drinkability: Decent west coast pale ale but for pure drinkability hand me a SNPA before this one eh?

Lagunitas pale ale pours amber gold in a pint glass, nice aroma of citrus and some pine.... Real tasty hopped up pale ale. Reminds me of a recent bottle of Sierra Nevada torpedo only a little bit less malt. Mighty fine addition to your fridge selection. Liked it so much, brewing up a clone batch for myself!

A hazy golden-orange body rests lazily beneath a pillowy off-white head. Its retention is limited, however, and it drops shortly to just a big-bubbled collar and partial surface covering. Still, a simple swirl of the glass will bring back up some more creaminess; and it does leave some spotty lace. A gently sweet caramelish malt and soft citrusy hops greet you in the nose. The body is medium/full and enhanced by a very fine and natural carbonation. It's quite creamy and smooth across the palate - almost velvety! The rich caramel-laced malt returns in the flavor, laced with spicy and floral hops and backed by a firm bitterness that balances the sweetness and dries the bold finish (although there's some soft and round sweet malt at the start, it does eventually receed to leave the back of the throat bone-dry and ready for another taste). Very nice, and quite interesting. Somewhat unique in its maltiness and soft body; and the hops are definitely present but not overdone. Quite drinkable; and well worth trying.

Acquired at the Bier Stein, Eugene, OR. Pours out a golden color with a thin white head, and not much lacing. The smell isn't that strong or distinct - maybe a bit of fruity hops but that's it. The taste is a bit bland, some taste of yeast and aromatic hops, and it doesn't leave much of an aftertaste. I'd drink it again, but it wasn't that exciting.

text: The twizzles are not an issue. Why tinker with something that's working? In fact, they got great GOE for them last weekend. They should focus on things that need work. Again, your or my perception of the program is irrelevant. For you it might need to be "lighter", for me it needs to be more aggressive on the darker parts, but, in the end, these are perceptions that are irrelevant to what we are seeing on the protocols. Address the levels it's what they need to do.

En español | Yes. The COLA for 2013 is 1.7 percent. If you turn 67 in 2013 and apply for benefits, your benefit would be 9.7 percent larger (the 8 percent delayed retirement credit plus the 1.7 percent COLA) than if you had applied for benefits at age 66 (when there was no COLA). In addition, the COLA is applied to the monthly benefit amount beginning when the person turns age 62. This is true whether the person is actually receiving benefits at age 62 or not.

According to Sky Sports, long term Spurs target and emerging Brazilian Superstar, Leandro Damiao, has claimed that Tottenham Hotspur have made him an offer.
Speaking to the French press, Leandro claimed he had yet to receive any indication from PSG that they wanted him. Instead, it is Spurs showing the more concrete interest.
This is highly likely to get Spurs fans buzzing with anticipation, as just last week, Belgian Hot Property, Eden Hazard, claimed Spurs were heavily interested in acquiring his services in the Summer.

Dawson Community College in Glendive Montana and Olds College located in Alberta Canada have announced the details of an enhanced 2+2 agreement in Agriculture that offers students a competitive, streamlined opportunity to earn a Applied Bachelor's degree in Ag.
Agriculture department head at DCC, Leanne Hoagland, and Rob Eirich, business instructor, from Olds College have been working together in an effort to firm up a new 2 + 2 agreement that will benefit the two institutions. "This is the first program of its kind offered to DCC students wanting a career in Agriculture," said Hoagland. "Rob and I have similar goals for our students. Through this partnership, in just four years, our students can complete both their associate's degree at DCC and an applied bachelor's degree from Olds College. We are pleased to join with Olds College to make this program available."
The process began last February as Eirich and Hoagland hosted a question and answer gathering for Ag students at DCC. The session was designed to inform students about the transferability of Dawson's Agriculture degrees to a wide variety of Olds programs.
"This August 2012 the 2 Plus 2 Agribusiness Technology transfer agreement was signed by both institutions" said Hoagland. "I was able to tour their facilities in Alberta and take a deeper look at their program. I'm very excited to offer this opportunity to future and current Dawson students. This is a chance for our students to find exceptional jobs in the field of agriculture through an Applied Bachelors of Science Degree program. Together we will be providing students more career choices and a brighter future."
Rob Eirich is an Olds Alumnus but also attend the University of Montana and is keenly aware of the transfer challenges students face moving between the US and Canada to attend college. "I have been working to build that bridge with Dawson's Ag department because I can see the seamless transferability that already exists between the two colleges. For those students interested in rodeo we are building our men's and women's teams too" Eirich added.
This new agreement is a first of its kind agreement with an out of state school for DCC. It is a welcome addition to a list of twelve - 2 plus 2 agreements already in place at DCC. Students can start their Bachelors at DCC in a host of subjects that include: Civil Engineering, Computer Science, Construction Engineering Technology, Criminal Justice, Early Childhood Education, Earth Sciences/Geology, Education, General Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Nursing, Occupational Safety and Health, Pre-Pharmacy and now the new Agriculture offering.
For more information about the new Agriculture 2+2 Education agreement, please call Leanne Hoagland, Agribusiness Program Director, at (406) 377-9464, or John Dershem-Bruce, DCC Admissions Counselor (406) 377-9458.

Ravens WR Derrick Mason had surgery on his broken right pinkie on Monday. He said on Fox 1370 Sports Radio in Baltimore that he will be ready for the Ravens' next game against the Dolphins in Week Nine.
Mason suffered the injury two weeks ago but waited until the bye week to have surgery. "I had surgery on it Monday. Put a pin in it, so it's good for me that we've got a week off — almost two weeks — so it allows my hand to heal," he said.
Mason hasn't missed a game since 2002. He played with the injury the last two weeks. Mason has 26 catches for 357 yards this season, second on the team behind Anquan Boldin.
The way we see it
Smart decision by Mason to wait until the bye week. The Ravens' new-look passing offense with Boldin could use a healthy Mason to help keep defenses honest, and the veteran has played well.

Police and crime commissioner pledges support to custody visiting scheme
5:43pm Wednesday 9th January 2013 in News By Lizzie Anderson
COUNTY Durham and Darlington's new police and crime commissioner has been discovering more about a scheme to ensure the welfare of detainees.
Ron Hogg met with volunteers from the county's Independent Custody Visiting Scheme for the first time this week and vowed to support them in their role.
The nationwide initiative that sees trained volunteers attend police stations to check on the welfare and treatment of detainees, while ensuring their rights and entitlements are being correctly observed.
It offers protection to detainees and the police and reassurance to the community at large.
The scheme covers police stations in Durham, Peterlee, Bishop Auckland and Darlington.
"I fully support the work and day to day operation of the Independent Custody Visiting Scheme throughout County Durham and Darlington," said Mr Hogg.
"It is essential in this age of 'policing by consent' that local communities have the utmost trust and confidence in its local police service.
"The Independent Custody Visiting Scheme is a very important part of building and maintaining this trust".

Today's Word of the Day means...
"Mahn ... concludes, after an elaborate investigation, that Gr. khymeia was probably the original, being first applied to pharmaceutical chemistry, which was chiefly concerned with juices or infusions of plants; that the pursuits of the Alexandrian alchemists were a subsequent development of chemical study, and that the notoriety of these may have caused the name of the art to be popularly associated with the ancient name of Egypt." [OED]The al- is the Arabic definite article, "the." The art and the name adopted by the Arabs from Alexandrians and thence returned to Europe via Spain. Alchemy was the "chemistry" of the Middle Ages and early modern times; since c.1600 applied distinctively to the pursuit of the transmutation of baser metals into gold, which, along with the search for the universal solvent and the panacea, were the chief occupations of early chemistry.
A medieval philosophy and early form of chemistry whose aims were the transmutation of base metals into gold, the discovery of a cure for all diseases, and the preparation of a potion that gives eternal youth. The imagined substance capable of turning other metals into gold was called the philosophers' stone.
Our Living Language : Because their goals were so unrealistic, and because they had so little success in achieving them, the practitioners of alchemy in the Middle Ages got a reputation as fakers and con artists. But this reputation is not fully deserved. While they never succeeded in turning lead into gold (one of their main goals), they did make discoveries that helped to shape modern chemistry. Alchemists invented early forms of some of the laboratory equipment used today, including beakers, crucibles, filters, and stirring rods. They also discovered and purified a number of chemical elements, including mercury, sulfur, and arsenic. And the methods they developed to separate mixtures and purify compounds by distillation and extraction are still important.
A science (no longer practiced) that sought to transform one chemical element into another through a combination of magic and primitive chemistry. Alchemy is considered to be the ancestor of modern chemistry.
Note: The search for the philosopher's stone that would change lead and other base metals into gold was part of alchemy.
Note: Today, alchemy is associated with wizards, magic, and the search for arcane knowledge.

considering the 70-300 vs 70-200 f/2.8 + 1.4x extenter, I really wouldn't know which is better AF-wise.I can try to answer that for the 60D: Since the 70-200/2.8is2 is not the latest generation of Canon lenses - time moves fast - the af speed is lowered when using an extender. Other than the said 1D, on the 60D all 9 af points are cross up to f5.6 (except for a few legacy lenses, see link below). Thus, the faster af speed of the 70-300 should outweigh the difference to a slower f4 because the "high precision" center af is only available at f2.8 and better.
I use the 70-300L on the 1Ds3 for head and shoulders personal portraits where I find the clients prefer f/4 or f/5.6.That's my personal experience, too - the reason is that a too bokehish background looks like the subject was standing in front of a green screen when shooting and then the background was replaced with a blur. Maybe this somehow seems to focus the eye too much on the portrait and the person's "shortcomings"? Or is it because you cannot get the tip of the nose into the dof at the same time as the ears with 2.8?

Embarkation---very smooth. Outside fence of pier it's a little confusing but they are helpful. The line moved fast. Get there early, if Holland has cleared the ship on time from the past cruise, they board early. Took very little time to board.
We did open dining so we went to make a reservation for the first night at Canaletto-Italian Restaurant. There was some confusion at our 8:00pm reservation time but we figured it was because of it being the first night. Service was very slow. But we spoke to others that said the service the second night was much faster. Made another reservation for the last night and the service was spot on. All the meals we had both nights were very good. Dessert surprise was delicious.
The open dining was a little weird. They only seemed to have reservations available for 5:15 or 7:45. But we figured out there were never any lines so we just started going when we wanted. Sometimes they seat you downstairs with the open dining and sometimes they took us upstairs to eat with the 2nd seating people.
We ate at the Pinnacle Grill one night---absolutely fabulous. One of the best meals that we have ever had, along with the best service. Worth the $20 pp.
Shows---The singers and dancers were good. The magician, impressionist and comedian were good. Some complained about the comedian but we loved him.
Bingo was good because they haven't gotten into the "machine" craze like the other cruise lines.
The best thing on the ship?------SERVICE The Indonesian/Filipino crew were fantastic. Very helpful and really friendly. Always saying hello when they passed you.
Cabins---quite roomy, closet space good. Drawers under beds and couch. Still space for the suitcases under the beds though.
All in all a great cruise, really a good value for the price.

Comments about Kryptonite Flex Cable/Key Locks:
I have been using this item for over a year, and today it proved itself up to the test.
I had locked my bike to a rack near my local bike store. I make it a point to either keep my bike in my line of sight, or, if that's not possible, to not be too long away from the bike. This was the case today.
When I returned to the bike, I unlocked it and, as I was wrapping up the cable I found that the casing had been cut through, but the cable itself was still intact. It had proved too tough for the would-be thief in the time I was gone.
I realize that I was lucky. Had the thief had more time I would now be bike-less, but the Kryptonite definitely slowed him (her?) down. I'll be buying another one (or two!)of these.

I like how flexible the cable is, the lock is beefy. Looks good for a cable lock.
