On Monday, all eyes on were on Washington as our 44th president was sworn into office. Barak Obama's inauguration speech sounded about the same as his last victory speech and the same as the nation has heard from previous presidents…lots of promises of hope and working together for the common good…to tackle healthcare, climate change, ending a decade of war, and peace and freedom for all.
Well if the president really wanted to start tackling some of these tough issues facing our nation (and the world), he might consider ceasing to endorse big agribusiness (and big oil but that's another topic for discussion) and ending the war on animals. Reducing America's demand for animal protein will not only solve violent animal cruelty issues but it would greatly reduce healthcare costs (improving the overall health of the country) and address one of the leading causes of climate change. That would truly be "freedom for ALL."

(Toledo News Now) - A new warning is issued about free applications many of us are downloading on our smart phones and tablets. They may not be free after all.
Almost everyone with a smart phone, tablet, or iPod Touch loves gaming apps, especially kids, because they are free and simple to use. Unfortunately, many parents are unaware that those free apps can run up big charges in the hands of some children.
Free apps, such as Angry Birds, are now loaded on millions of smart phones and iPads. But a growing number of parents are getting hit with huge bills for what is known as "in-app purchases." That is when a child makes purchases when playing games, not realizing that mom and dad will be billed in real money.
According to the website Consumer Affairs, one girl ran up $700 of in-app purchases from DragonVale, a popular kids app. Another spent more than $1,000 buying Smurf Berries from a Smurf app.
From the doesn't that stink file: the way app makers allow kids to spend their parents money. Despite headlines about parents protesting, app vendors are reluctant to change anything, because it is a big money maker.
The good news: Apple was hit with several lawsuits over the last year and now requires an iTunes password to make in-app purchases. However, it is still a problem as many parents give their kids their iTunes password.
Bottom line: Make sure you check any app you let a child use. If it allows purchases, make sure your young one understands not to make any.
That way you don't waste your money.

Miami (OH) RedHawks (0-11, 0-7 MAC) at Ball St. Cardinals (9-2, 6-1 MAC)
Scheumann Stadium -- Muncie, Ind.
Friday, Nov. 29, 2013 -- 1:00 p.m. ET
Television: ESPN3 (streaming)
The Miami RedHawks and Ball State Cardinals close out the 2013 regular season on Friday afternoon in a game that does not promise to be competitive. Perhaps the most notable item about Friday's contest is that it will be quarterback Keith Wenning's final game at Scheumann Stadium.
Ball State would earn a 10-win regular season with a victory and is almost certainly headed to a bowl game. They could end up anywhere from Detroit to Mobile or San Diego, but they'll want to put up some style points to impress bowl executives. A healthy crowd wouldn't hurt in that regard, either.
Miami merely seeks to win its first (and only) game of the season. Nothing could really rescue this team from the disaster that 2013 has become, but a win in their final game would be a good way to go into the offseason. The RedHawks could use whatever momentum they possibly can muster. If nothing else, a win would help on the recruiting trail.
Unfortunately, on paper, a win seems to be exceedingly unlikely for Miami. The Cardinals are second in the league in total offense and scoring offense, and Wenning has led to the top spot in the league for passing. BSU generates nearly 70 more yards per game through the air than anyone else in the MAC. Miami's offense simply cannot compete with that. The RedHawks average just 9.4 points per game and have only 12 touchdowns in 11 games. They have fewer than half the total yards (2,444) that Ball State does (5,251) and average just 3.7 yards per play. Miami is last in the MAC in both rushing and passing offfense.
On defense, the difference is not as stark, but it's still significant. While the Cardinals give up a lot of yards per game (433.5), they're very adept at the "bend-but-don't-break" philosophy. They're fourth in the MAC with just 25.8 points allowed per game despite ranking 11th in total yards allowed. In other words, Miami might be able to move the ball between the 20 yard lines, but don't expect many points. On the other side, Miami's defense is almost (but not quite) as bad as its offense. It allows 33.9 points and 475.1 yards per game, both in the bottom three of the MAC. While three other teams are worse against the pass, Miami does give up 244.2 yards per game in that area, and only one MAC team has given up more than the 23 touchdown passes the RedHawks have allowed.
One would expect the Wenning-to-Willie Snead combo to work their magic in this game. Snead has 86 catches, 1,296 yards and 13 touchdowns this season. However, Miami would be sorely mistaken if they think that it would be okay to ignore Jahwan Edwards, who has 13 touchdowns of his own among his 174 carries. Edwards is one of the top rushers in the MAC with 905 total yards. On defense, Jeffery Garrett will be looking to expose the passing weaknesses of Miami's young quarterbacks and could increase his team-leading total of five interceptions. Jonathan Newsome, who leads the Cardinals with eight sacks, will be trying to force those mistakes that Garrett could turn into turnovers.
Miami's best hope to have success on offense probably lies in trying to run the ball and avoid obvious passing situations as much as possible. Whether Austin Gearing or Drew Kummer turn into good passers remains to be seen, but for now, neither are getting the job done. Combined, the two have just 317 passing yards in 74 attempts and are completing just 40 percent of their passes. Gearing, who leads the team with 431 rushing yards, does present something else for the Ball State defense to worry about. The best hope to stop Wenning and Ball State rests with Dayonne Nunley. He has just one interception this year but also has 13 passes defensed and 12 broken up. If he can shut down one of Wenning's options on every play, Miami might be able to slow the Cardinals down.
The bottom line here is that a Miami victory here would be a monumental upset. It's probably not even realistic for them to keep this game close after what transpired in home games against Bowling Green and Buffalo. Then again, with a post-holiday game that means relatively little to the home team, you never know what could happen if Miami comes out properly motivated and Ball State comes out flat. After all, as the cliche goes, that's why they play the game.

One of my gas stove burners is not releasing any gas when the knob is turned, it only attempts to ignite unsuccessfully. I was curious what the problem may be, e.g. whether some grease from may have dripped through the channel or perhaps a mouse died somewhere in the pipeline. All the other burners are working fine. The stove is barely 1 yr old, if that much.

Michael's Inner Divinity Retreat Letter
Written: July 30, 2012
Dear Friends and Awakening Souls,
It is a glorious morning, here in Mount Shasta, as I write to you. Against the expanse of a cloudless sky the mountain stands magnificent, her jeweled crown sparkling in the sun, as she turns towards heaven, without cease. The gold of her crown represents the all-inclusive consciousness of the Christ. The priceless gems set in her diadem are the great souls, the Masters of Wisdom, who make Mount Shasta their teaching and healing retreat. This, along with it being a natural power vortex, is what makes this place one of the rare handful of sanctuaries to be found around the world. Those who seek enlightenment and the true wisdom and grace that it brings, often find their way here. Then, the blessings and the guidance of the great souls are showered upon them.
It is for this reason that we offer our Inner Divinity Retreats here, in Mount Shasta. These retreats not only are given to benefit the individuals who attend them, but, also to extend the miracles and the blessings of the Divine upon all those whose lives each retreat participant touches upon their return home and to their respective communities. For truly, no miracle can be contained in any one individual - its very nature is that it must be shared with the whole.
For this year, 2012, we have chosen to address the most important - and often the least understood - of all of our soul, or psychic, abilities during our Inner Divinity Retreat: Mediumship. As grateful as we may be that the idea about mediumship has gained more public exposure in the past decade than perhaps any other time in modern history, through hit Prime Time TV shows like Ghost Whisperer, Medium, Beyond with James Van Praagh, John Edward's Crossing Over, and many others, we cannot expect that the deeper significance and practical guidance on the development of one's own mediumship abilities be gained through such shows.
The work of these wonderful pioneers is to open wide the gates of mainstream consciousness so that those who are ready to explore their next steps in fulfilling their true purpose in life can have access to spiritual information, teaching, and guidance once available only to dedicated mystics, yogis, and initiates. That gate is now open, the permission is available, and the spiritual teachers who have for years been teaching in relative anonymity are stepping forth to guide a much larger audience of seekers and awakening souls.
Contrary to popular belief, mediumship is not just about speaking to the dead or prognosticating the future. It is the most comprehensive soul ability that we each have whose time has finally come to step out into and function correctly in the realm of everyday living. In the past millennia, those who started to open up to even a little of their powerful mediumship abilities have had to choose a monastic or other reclusive life or face the ridicule of society or even be committed to an institution. No longer does this have to be the case. Mediumship is our soul ability that gives us the stairway to ascend to heaven while we are still incarnated in our earthly bodies. It is our natural bridge to access our spiritual wisdom and knowing gained through many lifetimes of challenging experiences. Ultimately, without knowledge to correctly develop and use our mediumship, we cannot reach our ultimate destination as souls. Now is the time for this learning.
Those of us who have been teaching and guiding awakening souls for decades know that it is also time for us to pass on the torch-flames of wisdom that we guard to not only currently awakening souls, but especially to those who will become the spiritual guides to the next generation of seekers. To create a sanctuary in which we can do this, we offer you this very special retreat experience in which we have brought together a small team of pre-eminent teachers representing some of the major aspects of mediumship work and each of whom have been devoted to serving their communities of awakening souls for four to five decades or even more - and, that's just in their current incarnation! You cannot afford to miss this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to learn from those who hold many of the keys to life whether you are just beginning upon your spiritual exploration, a seasoned pilgrim on the path, or are amongst those souls who have had the calling to guide and serve others in their awakening.
We're all looking forward to seeing you here from Friday, August 17th - Sunday, August 19th!
May the light of Divinity illuminate your every step and guide you to your destiny.
With gratitude, love, and joyous celebration,

Bair finished with 14 saves. But her final one was huge.

Elizabeth Alexander led Findlay defensively with three steals and eight intercepts. Nikki Huber and Alexis Gray had four intercepts each and Halle McCleave three intercepts and a steal.
The tie left Maumee with an 11-1-3 record. Findlay wraps up the regular season and the Three Rivers Athletic Conference schedule Wednesday when the Trojans (8-3-4) host Fremont Ross.

The pilot of a small plane died in a crash on Long Island on Tuesday morning.
Suffolk County Police say that Hanan Shoshany, 53, of Jamaica, Queens, died when his single-engine Cessna 400 went down in the yard of 51 Camille Lane in East Patchogue at about 9:05 a.m.
It is not clear what caused the deadly crash, which was followed by a fire that damaged the house. A two-block radius was evacuated as a precaution, reported the Associated Press.
Investigators say Shoshany died a hero because he apparently did his best to avoid hitting any houses as the plane came down. In fact, the plane just missed a house where a baby was sleeping. The heat from the explosion melted the siding on that house, but no one on the ground was injured.
A tweet from the scene described the ground as having shook during the impact.
Shoshany was flying from Republic Airport in Farmingdale to MacArthur Airport in Islip.
The Federal Aviation Administration and National Transportation Safety Board were continuing the investigation to determine the cause of the crash.
The incident comes only days after another small plane crash that killed a member of the Rockefeller family in Westchester County. Richard Rockefeller, the great-grandson of Standard Oil co-founder John D. Rockefeller, was killed in the crash on Friday.
The Piper Meridian single-engine turboprop plane went down shortly after takeoff from Westchester County Airport. It narrowly missed a house in Purchase.

This exquisite diamond ring features seven diamonds hand-set in a unique and low-profile platinum setting.
View our education section to learn more about our wedding rings.
My wife loved this band. I purchased it for our tenth anniversary. It has great clarity and color. Added just enough sparkle without overwhelming her other ring.
David, South San Francisco, CA – July 2014
This is gorgeous. The "floating" setting minimizes the appearance of metal, so it really just looks like a band of diamonds on your finger. I like this especially, given that I was looking for a wedding band to wear on a different finger from my engagement ring, so I would be seeing the side view a lot--and the side view is just sparkly, beautiful diamonds! Unfortunately, I needed to send this back and exchange it for the smaller carat weight floating diamond band. This is because I was looking for something to wear in places where I do not feel comfortable wearing my engagement ring, and I felt like this was a tad too flashy for that. Take that with a grain of salt though--I have small fingers (size 4.25).
Catherine, San Francisco, CA – June 2014
The ring is beautiful and the diamonds are very brilliant. The service for return and exchange is also very efficient. The only thing I am not very satisfied is the logo of bluenile is on the very edge of my ring after exchange, it makes my ring looks not perfect, a little bit strange. This is my second purchase at bluenile and it will always be my first choice of purchasing jewelry.

Trey Hillman has done plenty that's worth questioning -- the above paragraph included -- but no big league manager should even have as an option substituting Hulett for Hernandez for Pena.Mellinger. Dayton Moore isn't mentioned in the article.I guess it's just one of those things -- the team just has these guys, and can't do anything about it. I also like the part of the article where it talks about the Braves wanting to trade Yunel Escobar to some team, but only if that other team could offer a better-hitting SS in return. I can't imagine why they can't find a trade partner!

He concludes that Frenchy might still have a shot at being a decent hitter, despite his lack of plate discipline. But what really caught my eye was this: "If not for the horrendously awful Tony Pena Jr., Francoeur would have the lowest VORP in all of baseball." To be fair, the editor does note that "all numbers are as of Friday. And this weekend Corey Patterson has a surge of suckitude to vault into second-to-worst in VORP, making Jeff Francoeur the third least productive player in baseball this year." YAY.

He's got the cast. He's got the crew. He's got the location. And he's got the screenplay.
All he needs to do next is make the movie.
Cinnaminson native and now New York-based writer/director Jeremy Wechter is working hard to get his supernatural horror movie Evil Alive made.
On Oct. 6, he'll make the trip down the Turnpike to Red, White and Brew in Mount Holly—owned by Cinnaminson native Stacey Blacker—for a special fundraiser/raffle.
Wechter also has a Kickstarter campaign and special online raffle—with movie items like a Ryan Gosling- and Michelle Williams-signed Blue Valentine poster—to help raise funds to make the movie.
A 1994 Cinnaminson High School graduate, Wechter graduated from the Tisch School of Arts at New York University. He remembers being artsy at a young age.
"I was always creative and liked drawing and painting," Wechter said. "I always assumed I'd end up in that field. But the more I explored in college, the more I realized filmmaking was the thing for me."
With quite a few screenplays, commercials and more under his belt already, he knew Evil Alive was the one he wanted to turn into a feature film.
"This was by far the fastest screenplay I've ever written," he said. "It was just flowing out of me."
People started to read the screenplay and were interested, Wechter said. Actors, producers and more signed onto Evil Alive.
But don't let the name fool you—this isn't a slasher flick. Wechter describes the film as a supernatural horror movie with a psychological element.
"It's very human character-oriented," Wechter said. "It's a very relatable horror movie."
Wechter teamed up with Blacker, who is a friend of his family, he said.
"She offered to do the fundraising event at her place. I was blown away by her generosity," he said.
Blacker owns Red, White and Brew, a wine, beer and spirits shop in downtown Mount Holly. The event will feature live guitar music, a wine bar, a Q&A about filmmaking, movie trivia contest and several raffle items. The event will be held from 3:30 to 7 p.m., Oct. 6.
"Regardless of if you're a fan of horror," Wechter said, "it's going to be a fun event."
Wechter himself isn't just a horror fan though; he names Meryl Streep as his favorite actress—"No one compares," he said.
Christopher Nolan and Stephen Spielberg are his favorite filmmakers.
As far as his own movie goes, Wechter calls it "unique" and compares the genre to the TV show American Horror Story.
"There's no movie like it," he said.
To raise funds to make the movie, Wechter, who works in New York as a teacher and screenplay consultant, is also heading up a Kickstarter campaign. Those who donate can get their name in the movie credits, signed items and more.
For every $10 donated, people can receive online raffle tickets for items that range from signed movie collectibles to gift cards.
"Filmmakers don't have to rely on studios anymore," Wechter said. "There's an example of people helping out."

This dressing is delicious though it's rather thick. It's great as a dip. I'll be making it again, though I might try to thin it out for salads.

In Freeport, we did the city tour, since MIL can not do too much walking and this was just right for everyone. Nassau we did not do anything special together. DH & I walked to the nearest beach to relax. DD & MIL went on a horse and buggie ride and then to the straw market. DS relaxed on the ship and then went into town for a short time.
We as a family enjoyed dinner in the Wind Star dining room, with the Any Time Dining. We were had the same table and servers the entire cruise. Elmer was our head waiter and his team were the best.
Little Stir-up Cay was on our itinerary and it was a nice island. We had a Cabana and was nice. We don't drink and we tried to get the bottle of champagne, switched for sodas and we had no luck. We did give the bottle to another cabana and that group did send over sodas for all, so that was a welcomed surprise. Snorkeling here was great, but the rocky waters is hard to navigate. Overall we all were happy with our cruise! Can't wait to good again!

Drank this after a Moylan's Hopsickel so it took a few sips to gage it after that all out hop attack Hopsickel is,poured a clear copper with some deep orange tint a tight one finger white head settles into a nice creaminess atop.Very floral aromas with some citrus and pine and a touch of caramel letting you know there is some malt in there,a big IPA with big hoppy tones the familiar flavors of pine and grapefruit but there is a bigger sweetness to this big IPA brown sugar flavors really show thru even more so as it warms.A nice IPA has all the hop flavors just sweeter than alot of the style in my opinion.

Appearance – This is a beautiful thick, gorgeous orange in color with some interesting floaties and a nice, full white head.
Smell – The hops here are huge orange rind with a little fruity sweetness and a stiff malt toasted aroma. The sugary orange aroma is very attractive and makes the nose IMO.
Taste – That orange sweetness finds its way to the taste making this a delicious DIPA that won't offend the novice drinker. True there is some bitterness to this one but it is balanced and quite flavorful.
Mouthfeel – This is bigger than medium-bodied but not full with a strong bitterness that is happily offset by a terrific orange sweetness. The carbs are light and the mouthfeel is smooth.
Drinkability – Way too quaffable for a 9.2% ale.

Single 12 ounce pours light amber with a creamy three finger head that is very sticky, great lacing, maintains a very generous layer all the way down the glass. Smell is floral with a touch of grapefruit and some caramel malt. Not a whole lot going on.
There's a nice big malt backbone over some rather nondescript hop bitterness - maybe a touch of pine. The alcohol is well hidden, but begins to warm after more than half the glass is gone. Mouthfeel is a stong point: hearty, dry, full-bodied but very drinkable.
This beer is well constructed, but I was hoping for more hop character, or any character. There are plenty of beers I'd rather buy for the price.

Reviewed from notes made on 10/23/10.
A: I poured the entire contents of the bomber into an obviously large snifter, which results in a one and a half finger, dark khaki head. The color is a murky golden-amber-orange. Carbonation bubbles drift slowly up the glass, and the lacing tightly packed, sticky, and, well, lacy.
S: Lots of caramel malt sweetness opens upfront with a decent dose of grassy and citrus hop aroma. There is a little grandparent mustiness infiltrating my nose, ala an English Barleywine. I also smell a lot of brown sugar.
T: This is a prime example of a Double IPA that blurs the style line with an English Barleywine. I am not positive if that is because this particular bottle is old and that the hops have worn off (no bottling date to check), or if that is just how this beer is crafted, but the sweeter caramel and brown sugar malt flavors definitely trump hop presence in this fella. The end of each sip does have a decent sweet citrus hop flavor, but the overall taste is dominated by that big, sweet malt and musty flavor.
M: This has a good medium-bodied feel with a fair pucker from the hops at the end of each sip. The carbonation provides a nice sizzle at the start of the sip.
D: This Double IPA is smooth and easy to drink, but with its similarities to a barleywine and the fact that I've had many other Double IPAs that I like better, I'd say this brew is fairly average.

4.03/5 rDev +3.1%
A: An orange tinted, medium gold with a light haze. The long lasting off-white head settles to a thin cap with a large rafts of foam and a ring around the glass. Some lacing on the glass.
S: Citrus and pine hop aromas dominate the aroma at moderate levels with a herbaceous, mint-like dry hopped aroma. There is a light malt sweetness having a carmel note and moderately-light alcohol notes.
T: A smooth moderately-high hop bitterness and moderate hops flavors dominate the flavor with a a light malt sweetness and a carmel malt flavor supporting. The hop have a flavors of citrus and pine but the flavor is fairly light. The balance is decidedly bitter with a long linger bitterness hanging on long past the dry finish.
M: This beer has a medium body and a moderately-high level of carbonation. There is a light astringency a some alcohol warming.
O: A very smooth DIPA despite the substantial bitterness and ABV this is easy to drink. I like this and will be buy more from time to time but I generally want more hops flavor in an IPA or Double IPA.

22oz poured into a tasting cup
Pours a nice pale orange color, as I would hope a pale ale would pour.
The aroma is the best thing this beer has going for it. A lot of citrus, mainly grapfruit(my favorite hop characteristic).
Where it lost me is on the palate. It starts out nice but when it hits the back of the tongue a definite alcohol sharpness and unforgiving bitterness that hinders drinkability quite a bit.
Overall, good hop character but a bomber is way too much. I'm not sure if I would even want tweleve ounces of this. I think I have a headache.

471 Double hopped IPA... Dipa. 9.2% alcohol.
A- Pours a glowing orange fluid (especially in sunlight) with a small half inch head that falls to barely there froth on top leaving nice spider web lacing.
S- I smell a heavy boozey essence upfront with mild grapefruit and citrus hints. Light malty scents as well.
T-M- Taste is very straight forward... alcohol esters, rich malts and slightly hopped up. I'm not going to lie had to sit back and figure out what i was tasting. In one sentence a alcohol sweet malty beverage with decent hop presence. Mouthfeel is rough and unbalanced with little to no carbonation to get the heavy alcohol flavor over the buds. Thick malty backbone.
D- I could drink this beer at the right price.
I cant remember what it was but well worth it for what it is. Strong and ok flavor.
Note: Drink at 55-60F for the best flavor.

Poured form a 12 oz. bottle into a pint glass.
A: Clear golden amber in color with a thick puffy white head - uneven and long lasting with great lacing. This looked awesome!
S: Nice mix of citrus and floral hops, with just a bit of underlying malt underneath. Again, very nice.
T&M: Hops - first and last. The first wave hits you like a bitter rush, assaulting the tongue with that hoppy goodness. The malts are present but not prevalent; the hops are clearly the star of the show here as they should be in an IPA. Not really balanced, the hops strike out at you and really grab hold of your tongue hard. I liked it. Carbonation was moderate to light. The finish was long and bitter with more hops lingering on forever. The slight warming on the way down is really the only thing that gives away the strength of this brew.
D: If you like hops, chances are you will like this one. It's strong on hops, no doubt, but there is some room for refinement. There is a bit of an oily texture at the swallow - not sure if this is from the alcohol or the incredible hops. I guess I might just be tainted by some others but I really like the more balanced IPAs that still pull off the hoppy profile. Regardless, this is a good brew and I would definitely seek it out again.

The 471 IPA pours from the bomber a wonderful deep orange with a touch of red and a nice creamy, bubbly head that's almost khaki in color. Looks nice in the glass for sure. Aromas of deep rich piney resinous hops alongside a hefty sweet caramel, doughy maltiness. Brash, herbal hops are raw and quite nice. Candy like.
First sip brings a sweet caramelly, doughy maltiness. This is accentuated by a blast of bitter, piney, herbal hops. Raw, green, earthy and wonderfully resinous. There's a nice balance at play here. A tasty hop forward IPA that is tasty. Finishes with a nice bitterness on the way down.
Mouthfeel is medium bodied with a nice creamy aspect and mellow carbonation. Goes down really easily...the bomber will disappear quickly. This one really doesn't seem like it's 9.2%. A winner from Breckenridge. Worth a shot by all means.

I found this in Virginia of all places along with a slathering of other Breckenridge Brewery beers.
22oz bomber which said double hopped...thats all I needed...
Popped the top and a nice citrus aroma came hissing out. Pour came with a thick, tall white head which reduced to a thick, rocky coating with loads of lace. Perfectly clear orange, light caramel body.
Loaded with citrus hops and not afraid to let you know before you even taste it. A strong grapefruit citrus with a good dose of tangerine added to boot. Some grassy, sweet malts round it out. A bit of alcohol in the nose.
Rather simple tasting and straightforward but hits the right spots. I was expecting more citrus hop flavor from the aroma. Fairly strong bitterness levels which come forth with a strong pine flavor and citrus flavors. I find this a a bit lacking with malts though and comes across a little harsh without the sweetness they usually provide although the hop combination could add/cause this. Not as smooth drinking as some other DIPAs.
Mouthfeel is good. Not as full as it could be but decent. Drinkability is good as well. The slight harshness of the hops not being balanced well with an equal part of malt flavors might make it hard to swig these back.
Overall a good IPA with an awesome aroma. Could be better balanced, pick one up if you see it around and like hops...

22oz bottle purchased at Village Market, Hampton Falls, NH. No dates on bottle.
In a tulip the beer was a clear gold color with a huge off-white head. Plenty of sticky lace.
Mostly piney hops aroma. Some citrus, some sweet malt.
Caramel taste. Piney and grapefruit hops.
Medium-bodied, but a little sweet for my taste.
Would still drink it again.

22 oz bottle. Pours a clear golden orange with a smallish soapy white head that retains well and leaves a touch of lacing.
The aroma is a nice mix of sweet caramel malts, fruitiness, and piney, grassy hoppiness with a touch of pepper.
The flavor is sweet and fruity (apricot) caramel malts leading into a big bitter and resiny piney hop finish. The alcohol is well hidden, but definitely warms the liver. The mouthfeel is a little on the thin and watery side.
A pretty good DIPA - tends more towards IPA than DIPA I think. Not best in class, but the best Breck beer I've ever had. I usually like grapefruity notes in IPAs rather than the apricot - personal preference that docked it a little in my book. It reminded me somewhat of Great Divide's Titan IPA , but not quite as good from what I remember.

Starting Over
Commit to Change. You may find it hard to believe that you haven't already developed skill at starting over. Although you may understand the concept (and no doubt you have "started over" thousands of times in your life), that doesn't mean you've brought mindfulness and intention to it so that it has become a practice. Unless you have, you will be thrown off balance by life's inevitable rough waters as you navigate to transform yourself.
If you believe you are already skilled in starting over, try keeping your mind on your breath for 30 minutes. Observe whether you are able to simply come back to it without any comment or other distraction and really give it your full attention, not once or twice, but repeatedly for the entire 30 minutes. Almost no one can do this without training, and what this exercise reveals is that your mind is stubbornly independent and that your ego lacks a "just start over" attitude.
Initially, I taught starting over as a daily life practice only on a one-on-one basis to students attending meditation retreats. A silent retreat, with its long hours of sitting in meditation, is the ideal situation for practicing starting over and for realizing that the mind can be retrained. After seeing how powerful a tool it was for helping people transform, I began recommending the practice to students in my weekly meditation class.
For one 45-year-old man whose chronic health problem would manifest suddenly and unexpectedly, starting over involved responding to whatever the conditions of his life were each day. After years of being rendered helpless by his disease and losing his zest for life, he discovered that he could have a rich inner and outer life by focusing on "right now," despite the turbulence of his circumstances.
Another student, a bright 42-year-old woman whose career had been derailed because of a series of traumatic emotional challenges and who felt shut off from peers at work, learned how to regroup several times each day by acknowledging her feelings of alienation and inadequacy and simply starting over in that moment. She found that if she spent any time indulging in the stories generated by her feelings, they only got worse. I advised her to make immediate contact with others in the office whenever she felt alienated and to do it as a practice, without caring how she felt doing it. And when she started feeling incompetent, I suggested that she select some small task and do it at once. Within a year of practicing starting over, she reported that although she still experienced feelings of alienation and inadequacy, they no longer controlled her life.
Similarly, a 29-year-old woman who had a history of anorexia in her youth and still suffered from feeling that she was too big, learned that she could stop a chain of destructive eating behaviors by noticing when certain feelings of anxiety and unspecified dread arose. Through a starting-over practice, she came to realize that whenever those feelings arose, it meant she had been "shot by the arrow" and that it was time to practice mindfulness and compassion toward herself and to quit all self-criticism. She learned that if she just started over by moving her attention to any of a series of tasks she found stimulating, then the feelings would usually not dominate and she would not spiral out of control. Her situation was particularly difficult because she was convinced she could never change unless she understood why she was the way she was. It was only because she lacked alternatives that she finally responded to my suggestion that she make starting over a practice.

Businesses in downtown Nashville are bracing for another blow.
There's word the National Hockey League will likely cancel the rest of its games in December after contract negotiations failed this week. And there's no word on when or if they'll resume.
Megan Caldwell used to look forward to game nights at Bailey's Sports Bar on Broadway.
"Whenever the Preds were here you could easily walk out of here $150, $175 just from the Preds rush before the games," Caldwell, a waitress at the bar explained.
But ever since the lockout put the hockey season and the Nashville Predators on ice, her tips have dried up.
"There would be game days when I walked out of here with $30 bucks," Caldwell recalled.
"It's taking a toll on us all," said manager Scott Frame.
Frame said with potentially 10,000 to 15,000 fans coming downtown to watch the Predators play, Tuesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays were good for business. But tonight the dinner crowd was a dud and tables were empty. It was a similar scene Saturday night at businesses up and down Broadway from the honky tonks to souvenir shops.
"We had to push a lot of people who start say at noon to 4 and coming in past the 4 o'clock hour when we'd be starting to build up business we've had to look at now saying 6 o'clock and consider taking volunteers who want to go home," Frame explained.
And now with news the NHL will likely cancel the rest of the games this month, area businesses could be forced to take more drastic measures. So Caldwell has a tip for the NHL.
"It's hurting the economy it's hurting everyone who tries to work hard down here ... so bring it back please!"
There is one bright spot in all of this. Bridgestone Arena has added several events to the calendar, including games with Vanderbilt and Middle Tennessee State University which could bring people to downtown. But if a deal isn't reached soon, Frame said they may have to make deeper cuts.

Nearly 70 guns were turned over to the Michigan City Police over the weekend by residents who no longer wanted them.
The city's "Get More Buck for Your Bang" gun exchange program is designed to reduce the number of unwanted weapons in the Michigan City area.
Every year since 2007, the police department has offered Wal-Mart gift cards in exchange for unwanted guns. "Our intentions are not to take guns away from citizens, yet our purpose is to give citizens an avenue to remove unwanted, broken, or unused firearms that no longer serve a purpose," said Michigan City Police Sgt. Chris Yagelski in a written statement.
During the drive on April 26 and 27, residents turned in 69 guns, including 40 handguns, 26 long guns, and 3 starter pistols. One of the handguns dated back to 1925. Since 2007, police have collected more than 450 weapons.

Rebate Management System for SOA Environment
Project Lead: Bill Chapman, CTO
Project Description: Rebate Management System was conceived as a part of Avnet's enterprisewide SOA. The solution was developed using Fair Isaac's Blaze Advisor business rules management solution, with Avnet creating Java EJB services to attach it to Avnet's SOA. Avnet used Web services, Oracle Stored Procedures, and JMS messages to call the business rules engine and to process massive amounts of Oracle-based data. This provided the latest rebate information and real-time monitoring for customers against dynamic sales goals. Avnet created the rules framework with reusable components, establishing the scope of knowledge and logic foundation. It used WebMethodsand Informatica software as the middleware layers to integrate ARMS with more than 10 systems, including order management, invoicing, CRM, ERP, and HR.

Officers were at the scene of a break-in and burglary at Nathan Hale High School early Friday morning.
It happened just before 1 a.m. Friday when the alarms were set off at the high school located near 21st and Sheridan.
Tulsa Public School's Chris Payne told KTUL.com that both Tulsa Police and TPS campus police were dispatched to the scene of the break-in.
At the scene, both authorities set up a perimeter outside the room where the burglary occurred. Canine units were then sent into the building to search for any suspects.
Payne said that burglars entered the building from the south side entrance and cut the chain on the door. Police found bolt cutters left behind by the suspects.
He said at least two-to-three computers were stolen.
Police are now investigating but no suspects have been apprehended.

JU Football honored by Jacksonville City Council
The JU football team was honored on Tuesday night as they received a proclamation declaring March 10, 2009 as JU Football Championship Day from the Jacksonville City Council and its President Ronnie Fussell.
After splitting its first two games in conference play, the Dolphins won their final seven games in the PFL – capping the run with a 19-14 win over Dayton.
"We are truly honored to receive this recognition from the city of Jacksonville," said JU head coach Kerwin Bell. "This has been a remarkable season and we are extremely appreciative of the support that our community has given us."
SPRING PRACTICE IN THE BOOKS: The Dolphins didn't waste any time in wrapping up spring practice, holding the annual Green & White game in late February with the final practices wrapping up last week.
The spring gave the coaching staff a chance to get the younger players experience as the Dolphins look to replace 10 seniors from last year's squad.
"This was an important spring for us to build off of last year's success," Bell said. "We got a lot of snaps for the young guys to see what works and what doesn't. When you lose 10 seniors, it's important to get the guys replacing them acclimated quickly."
With starting quarterback Josh McGregor missing spring practice, Erik Stepelton stepped in and handled the job throughout the spring as he worked with a group of receivers that are in the process of replacing Geavon Tribble.
"Erik has developed a great grasp of the offense and really progressed this spring," Bell said. "We had a great spring out of our receivers. All of our young guys showed potential, but they also have a lot of work to do in the weight room to get better."
The defense also had some big holes to fill with the graduation of cornerback Robson Noel, safety Tremaine Mack and defensive lineman Austin Knipp.
"Our defense was a big part of our success last season because they made so many big plays to get us the ball back," Bell said. "This group has already started to gel again this spring and we're returning a lot of talented guys who are hungry to win another championship."
CHAMPIONSHIP PRINT AVAILABLE: A limited edition print featuring JU's first PFL championship season is available on JUPhotos.com for $40. The picture captures the images that are ingrained into the memories of everyone who followed this team's amazing run to the title.

Question primarily for big Tom but anyone else with experience post!
1. What method of application have you found to be most effective for tacky with regards to atlas stones? Taping the forearms and applying tacky, no tape and tacky? Also, how much tacky is ideal to use?
2. I'm a shorter guy, only about 5'7". I have a tough time tossing kegs. What is the best form for keg tosses for the short guys?
I'm thinking we could keep this thread here and expand on it as more questions are asked.
If I use athletic tape and tacky, I find that it pulls my tape off after a long stone session. But...the tacky seems to last longer with tape on there. My stone is still pretty dusty, I need to clean it. I also found that the area of application worked so much better for me rather than coating my entire forearm, haha. Fingers, and palms get tacky too. WD40 to clean it all off, works like a charm.
"Light Weight"
260's by May
With regard to tacky and taping there is a lot more to it than just using tape or not using tape; the preparation, type of tape, and how you tape your arms can be just as important. Some of the best stone loaders (Ortmayer, etc.) load stones without tape, although I have found it to be a beneficial tool when training in hot/humid conditions.
Recently I have started using Gorilla Tape (from Home Depot) for stones and was pleased with the way that it held up, but athletic tape also works well. I only tape a small portion of my upper forearm and prior to taping make sure that my arms are completely clean and dry. When taping make sure to flex your forearm so that the tape is not too tight, but also make sure to wrap it tightly enough that it will not slide out of place.
To apply tacky you should always put a thin layer (small dabs) on your forearms, bottom of your palms, fingers, and chest area of your shirt. If you are going to be doing stone for reps or loading a series I would put a little extra tacky on the back of your palm or arm in case you need to re-apply some during the event.
The type of tacky that you use also makes a huge difference, and even how you store the tacky. If you are unsure about which brand/type of tacky to select just let me know and I can offer some advice there.
2. Keg Toss
I do not have too much experience with keg toss but your best bet it so take a wide stance and hold the weight sideways then use the momentum and jump as you throw (similar to the extension on a power clean or tire flip). If you are using half kegs you can grab them by the handles since they are a bit shorter.
The best way to practice would be to pick up a couple of kegs and go out to a field to give it a try. You may also want to watch some videos of highland games competitors doing the Weight For Height event.

Good stuff, I appreciate it. I usually load stones with no tape, but it keeps ripping up my arms. I was practicing stones last week and now I have scabs from them, so im gonna need to tape for the show this weekend.
Ive got a friend here in town with some empty kegs, I will try to get some practice in today maybe. For training keg toss in the gym i've been doing some KB swings to help with my hip pop
What are the expected weather conditions for your contest? I can give you some recommendations on tacky/tape once I have that information.
Today is a little close to the contest to practice but I would try to do a few reps of keg toss just to get familiar with the movement. Timing your release properly will be important and is something that KB swings would not prepare you for.
How is your bodyweight for the contest? Feeling strong on all of your other lifts?

The weather should be 96 and sunny. The entire competition will be in the grass, so I need to figure out what shoes might be the best for the competion. Events will be:
Tire flip - 80 feet
Farmers/Keg carry medley
OH Press Medley
Keg Toss for Height
Atlas Stone Medley
Bodyweight is around 196... I will be in the 200lb class. I am feeling strong, though I am nowhere near where I was about 7 weeks ago (I had a series of setbacks that began with an ER visit). But I am strong considering I was 175ish lbs 4.5 weeks ago.
The only events i will probably have a lot of trouble with is the keg toss due to lack of practice. I should be good for the others I think... I have very simple goals...Finish the OH press medley (failed this same press medley in June) and finish the stone load
Again thanks for your help!

With temperatures that warm I would use Elite Tacky. To prepare your arms I would bring clean wipes or alcohol swabs to clear off any dirt from the other events (especially the tire) and then dry your arms with a clean towel and apply the tape. The gorilla tape (duct tape) worked well last weekend and I only used it for about the top 6" of my forearms from just below my elbow down to around 3-4" above my wrist (covering the area that contacts the stone). You could also use athletic tape although You have to be a bit more careful with athletic tape as you can sweat through it in warm temperatures if you put it on too soon. If you have stickum spray you can use that on your arms before applying the tape to help keep it from sliding.
If you have cleats for the tire flip those will be the best shoes to wear since the event is on grass. Whichever shoes you usually wear for pressing and regular athletic shoes should work well for the other medleys. A lot of people wear boots for stones since they usually have a higher heel.
It sounds like your weight is right on track and I wold not be too worried about the keg toss since I am sure a lot of other competitors have not had much (if any) practice with that event. Just take the first possible opener to get on the board and then make small jumps from there.
Good luck this weekend!

LucasArts' eulogy reminds us of the inhuman cost of game development
Former LucasArts composer Jesse Harlin has written a eulogy for the company, and the words have been matched with a series of images taken of employees on what was reported to be their last day of work. The eulogy is moving, and it provides a look into a group of people who are passionate about what they did, but a few lines stand out as stark reminders of how much you give up to work in this industry.
"In the trenches of game design, work was hard. Crippling crunches that lasted for months aged us and tested our sanity. Sometimes executives presented us with projects, development partners, or deadlines that were impossible," Harlin wrote. "But giving all of yourself creatively never stopped. Ever. Marriages failed as we poured our hearts into games that the press might eventually skewer. Pregnancies were delayed in favor of project milestones. Funerals were missed."
There are many good things written about the company and the work environment, but I wanted to pull that section out to think about the monstrosity of modern game development. Let's not romanticize this is any way; when we die, it is not likely we are going to look back at the work we did on a cancelled Boba Fett game with satisfaction. We are much more likely to regret our lack of final respects to our friends or family members.
If the cost of a fun game is a failed marriage, then it may be time to admit that the cost is too high. We all manage the timing of our children around our jobs to some extent, but putting off having children because you're in the middle of crunch is hard to justify.
The people in these images and talked about in this eulogy are artists, but what are they left with in return for those sacrifices? The legacy that LucasArts left gaming is decades old, and involves adventure games and X-Wing titles. The biggest news from the company has lately been which games had been cancelled, not which games were released.
The merger between Disney and Lucasfilm made sense from a business perspective, but stories and images like this show the human side of the games we play. These people, in many ways, gave up their lives for the company, and their reward is the closure of LucasArts because it doesn't make sense for Disney to keep the company alive.
Better personal lives will lead to better games
The cost of our games, including the 18 hour work days, the ruined relationships, and the isolation from friends and family, is incredibly high. Reporters joke with each other whenever we tour a studio and see the free coffee, the cafeteria, the movie theaters, and the showers; the nicer a corporate office looks, and the more features it offers employees, the less likely it is that you'll ever leave the premises for things as mundane as a well-rounded personal life. That expensive coffee machine and climbing wall isn't a free perk, it's the payment for when you're asked to skip that funeral or work through the weekend.
I've talked to too many people in this industry to wonder why so many of our games feel adolescent; many of the artists who make the games are given a job, they begin to live at the studio, the hours grow long, they cease to grow as human beings, and they're stuck with the same influences, passions, and sense of humor they had as a teenager. This may not have happened at LucasArts, as the men and women in these images may have paid the cost gladly or had a richer home life than is hinted at in the euology, but it's a problem in modern, AAA game development.
The best thing we can do to ensure high-quality, diverse games is to create a system where the people who make these games can take a day off to go to a museum. Where they can take their spouse to dinner on their anniversary, or watch their children's play or musical performance at their school. Where they can have a life outside of the office, and become actual adults with functional relationships that don't involve space marines and lightsabers. You shouldn't have to give these things up to create video games, and we shouldn't romanticize these realities when a studio closes.
