Bomber from Liquid Solutions. Aroma is redolent with pineapple, vanilla, coconut....all of which is really the effect of oak and bourbon. Still it smells nice. The body is a murky brown and holds a diminishing, bubbly, brown head that never really gets formed before it retreats.
Massive bourbon flavor in the fore. It is also thin on first sip, but you expect that with a bourbon aged beer. It tends to thin even the heartiest of brews. The spicier wood notes are evident in the finish while the middle is smooth chocolate and cream. But, overall this is just too hot with alcohol for me to taste much in the way of a porter. I prefer the barrel-aged asspects of a beer to compliment not to define. That being said if you like a fairly strong Bourbon presence you definitely should try this beer.

Thanks to garagekegger (actually his wife) for getting this beer back from Oregon.Poured a deep tawny brown with a light brown thinner head.Now if blindfolded when taking in the aromas of this beer I would think I was sniffing on some Makers Mark,or Beam its all vanilla and wood with a touch of butterscotch whoo it was rich.Flavors were also dominated by the bourbon barrel aging very oaky with bi vanilla notes and a touch of roasted character,the vanilla to got a little cloying after a short while.Very interesting beer a little one sided but Iam glad I tried it.

this is a very attractive beer, both to the nose and to the eye, but in the mouth, not so much. tastes like it doesn't know what it wants to be, and i don't know when the last time was when i thought while drinking beer, hmm i wish this tasted a bit like bourbon.
it doesn't taste much like a porter at all.

My buddy and I visited Corvalis last summer and picked up a bottle of this at the brewery. I cellared it until a few days ago when we drank it while hanging out in the Colorado mountains. A transregional beer drinking experience...
From the bomber this poured dark ebony with an off-white head that reduces to a thin layer. The bouquet is dominated by buttery, bourbon smells, and bourbon overwhelms the palate (even though this is a muted bourbon). The base porter is almost unidentifiable against the bourbon aromas and flavors, and though I don't mind bourbon flavor, I drink beer when I drink beer and whiskey when I want whiskey. This is too one-sided a hybrid brew.
Drinkable yet disappointing. Skip this one, and stick with Oregon Trail's other brews...especially their unique Black Widow (a wit/porter blend) if you can ever find it.

22oz bottle, really nice looking bottle with a maroon wax dipped top, poured this into my trusty Chocolate Bock glass.
Pour Nice dark brown/black color with a sticky head that was sweet bourbon/off-white.
Smell/Taste It is easy to make out the bourbon flavor, especially after drinking it. Perhaps it is a bit too sweet and sharp right now and would do well with some time in the cellar. Flavor can be a bit sharp or overwhelming, but still easy to drink overall. Flavor of roasted coffee beans, cream/vanilla, slight wood, seltzer and bourbon in each sip a lot of carbonation for a porter and at 9.1% alcohol its very smooth.
Drinkability Its not the best porter out there, but I think this really may age well. The end of a 22oz bottle gets a bit boring too as it is very sweet. Great beer to split.
I would suggest trying this if you find it in a bottle, price is worth a shot. The bottle is eye-catching too, which doesnt really help anything unless you collect bottles.

Thanks to Cwiers for this beer. Quack! Batch 1.
A: Break the wax seal and into the oversized Riedel snifter it goes. Pours a very dark brown hue with some dimension to it. Head is an attractive roasted marshmallow color with a good amount of creaminess to it. But since my glass is so wide, the head drops quickly.
S: Lots of bourbon on the nose. Also some Aba Zaba, caramel, raw almonds, oak and vanilla.
T: Starts off with a twing of tanginess before the pungent bourbon sets in. The beer is strong in this beer and doesnt allow the true personality of the porter really show itself until towards the end but Im getting ahead of myself. Little bit or roastedness with an evident hop kick comes next, which does surprise me. Didnt think Id taste any hops underneath all the bourbon. Finishes with a huge amount of buttery roasted nuts that goes on for days. Really nice way to finish this beer off. Aftertaste is bourbon, oak and a bit of plastic.
M: Medium body with a fairly nice texture.
D: I would have like the bourbon to have played the supporting cast in this beer opposed to the starring role. I would have liked to know the porter that created the foundation a bit more.

Its a rare event for Oregon Trail to produce a bottled beer, as the owner/brewer generally doesnt care to fill any vessel smaller than a party pig. So I was pleasantly surprised to find a bottle of something new from OT at Belmont Station recently a wax-dipped bomber of bourbon barrel porter. The wax seal lent an elegant appearance to the bottle though it was somewhat of a nuisance to remove. Use all due caution with a pocketknife and count your fingers when youre done.
OTs Bourbon Porter emits a sickly sweet, seductive aroma, strong on bourbon, with ample malt sugars and a hint of vanilla. My initial response to the taste was to note a very woodsy and appealing lack of refinement. But as the beer warmed and surrendered some carbonation, that rustic, oaken woodiness grew downright regal, with strong notes of bourbon elegantly integrated into a solid, stand-alone porter. The flavor is bold and dignified, with enough character to easily justify the modestly indulgent $6.50 price tag.
A very classy beer. And it kicks ass with ice cream.

Burnt umber suffused with darkest cherry when backlit. The head looks like melted cinnamon ice cream within minutes of the pour and is leaving a more than respectable amount of lace. Bourbon Porter looks like a big porter ought to look as far as I'm concerned.
I've been sitting here enjoying the nose for the last few minutes and I haven't had the glass within two feet of my nose. Anyone who likes bourbon whiskey (I love it!) should like the aroma emanating from this beer. It smells like wonderfully rich, oaky, vanilla estery bourbon, but not to the extent that its essential beerness has been lost.
The label indicates that Bourbon Porter has been aged in bourbon barrels. My bottle also has a small sticker reading 9.1% Alc/Vol that was placed atop the original 6.6% Alc/Vol. Given how much it tastes like the liquor in question, and given how light (read: undermalted) it feels in the mouth, I wonder if the brewery might not have added a little bourbon to a standard porter. That'll jack up the ABV in a big hurry.
I like the flavor because I like bourbon, it's as simple as that. On the whole, though, this isn't the most expertly crafted beer in the world. The biggest problem is the less than viscous mouthfeel on what should be a chewy, heavily silky treat of a beer. I can get past it pretty easily since my taste buds love being bathed in this boozy elixir.
The flavor profile consists of roasted malt, dark chocolate, brown sugar, vanilla, charred oak and delightfully delicious Kentucky bourbon. I even get to experience the minor burn on the swallow, although it's much less apparent (obviously) than when sipping 100 proof Knob Creek. So what if this isn't the bourbon porter of my dreams, it's still lip smackingly good beer.
I've already noted my disappointment with the mouthfeel. With more heft, this could be a killer of a big porter. More malt would have done wonders and would probably have resulted in a half point bump in the final three scores. At least there are very few bubbles present. Any amount of fizziness would have been unforgivable.
I've had this bomber of Oregon Trail Bourbon Porter in my cellar for more than a year. I had no idea what to expect, but in the end, I like what the brewers have done. If you enjoy bourbon whiskey, then it's an easy recommendation. If you don't, then I'd suggest saving your money.

In case you've been MIA, the whole Sugar gang finally saw the Sex and the City movie. But don't worry, I'm not going to utter a word about the story line. What I am going to open my trap about are the wardrobes of the fabulous foursome, courtesy of Patricia Field. Almost all of Carrie's outfits were dead on and gush worthy, but it was a little strange to see Miranda always dressed up and accessorized. I guess she's grown up and now appreciates fashion! Because I'm Fab, I was instantly able to identify what each character was wearing as soon as I saw it. Not! Let's just say I have friends in high places who were amazing enough to share their wealth of wardrobe knowledge. And what an excessive amount of wealth it is — dive in!

Honda Motor Co. President Takanobu Ito forecast growth over the next two to three years will be led by sales of its range of new Fit vehicles as Japan's third-biggest automaker expands in emerging markets.
We will see the good uplifting effect from the Fit series, Ito, 59, said Friday in an interview at his Tokyo office, where Honda's spaceman-like Asimo robot greets visitors by name. So around the world, I believe 2013, 2014, 2015 will be years of growth.
Ito's focus on the Fit, a vehicle no bigger than Toyota's Prius, illustrates Honda's expectations for global demand to increasingly tilt toward smaller autos in the next five years as fuel prices rise.
That strategy is being emulated by General Motors, Fiat and Toyota as compact cars are on pace to capture their largest share of the U.S. auto market since 1993, according to researcher Autodata Corp.
Retailers try to quash fee-fixing settlement
A group of retailers and trade groups has launched a last-ditch effort to stop a settlement worth at least $6 billion that Visa Inc., MasterCard Inc. and major banks have agreed to pay retailers for alleged fee fixing.
Ten out of the 19 retailers and trade groups that are plaintiffs in the class-action lawsuit against the credit card companies say they're trying to block the deal because they believe it would allow the credit card industry to continue to take advantage of merchants and their customers while stopping competition.
The proposed settlement, which was disclosed in July, is expected to be submitted to the U.S. District Court in Brooklyn by next Friday.
Merchants objecting to the deal will then have 30 days to submit arguments urging the court to reject the proposal.
Samsung goes small with new phone model
Samsung Electronics Co. has unveiled a smaller and cheaper version of the Galaxy S III smartphone with the same screen size as the iPhone 5.
Samsung says the Galaxy S III mini features a screen measuring 4 inches diagonally, smaller than the Galaxy S III's 4.8-inch display but the same as Apple's iPhone 5, which was Apple's first upgrade of the iPhone screen size.
Samsung said the mini will be launched in Europe this month but kept mum on schedules for other countries.
Samsung's German mobile shop lists the mini's price at $516 versus $711 for the cheapest S III.
The mini is powered by the latest version of Android software but does not support faster fourth-generation wireless networks.
Tyson to audit animal treatment
The nation's largest meat company, Tyson Foods Inc., says it's launching an animal treatment audit of suppliers' farms.
The company announced the audit Friday.
The news comes as animal welfare activists have been pressuring Tyson to move away from cramped cages for pregnant pigs.
But the Springdale, Ark.-based company says its latest move is not in response to actions from the Humane Society of the United States or other organizations.
Tyson President and CEO Donnie Smith says in a statement the company knows consumers want assurances that their food is being produced responsibly.
Tyson says auditors will check on such things as animal access to food and water.

My Take On The Straw Poll?Submitted by Robert Timsah on Sun, 08/14/2011 - 04:06
It's on to the Iowa Caucuses.
Ron Paul just scored his biggest political win in the GOP Iowa straw poll by coming in second (where he finished 5th in 2007) and just 150 votes shy of winning. While a #1 would have been awesome, gotta give Bachman credit here. She's a good debater, who talks more about Obama (red meat) than Ron does - The GOP wants to know who can beat Obama. Ron is more philosophical and has to battle the GOP establishment foreign policy before he can even get around to Obama. It's an interesting, albiet, frustrating dynamic.
Bachman is not very philosophical and as such she's better at delivering applause lines and red meat to the base. She's just a better speaker (hit pieces and one liners). Ron is not up there trying to get applause lines, he's trying to educate and inspire people to TAKE RESPONSIBILITY and think for themselves. It's a tougher proposition. Yet the flipside is that when someone becomes a Paul supporter, they're much more loyal because he can fundamentally change your entire philosophy in life. He actually "wakes you up". Bachman won't really wake anyone up. As a result her support will move. When Ron gains support, IT'S REAL and it's going to LAST.

AT&T Adding Windows 8 Tablets in Time for Holidays
AT&T will offer the Asus VivoTab RT and Samsung ATIV Smart PC in time for the holidays.
AT&T said on Thursday that it will offer a set of Windows 8 tablets in time for the 2012 holiday shopping season. AT&T said it will be the only U.S. carrier to offer these two new tablets.
First up is the Asus VivoTab RT, the first quad-core Windows RT-based 4G LTE tablet. AT&T describes it as an ultra-thin, light tablet designed as the ideal mobile entertainment, productivity and gaming platform. The specs reveal it to have a quad-core Nvidia Tegra 3 TE SoC, 2 GB of RAM, 32 GB of internal storage, 802.11 b/g/n and Bluetooth 4.0C connectivity, an 8MP auto-focus camera with flash on the back, and a front-facing 2MP camera.
The tablet also sports a 10.1-inch Super IPS+ screen with support for up to ten simultaneous fingers, and a 1366 x 768 resolution. The tablet can connect to a QWERTY keyboard dock and instantly transform into an ultra-portable laptop with a USB port and an even longer battery life. However AT&T did not indicate this accessory will be offered.
As for the Samsung ATIV Smart PC, this gadget offers AT&T customers "the blend of PC capability with the convenient tablet form factor." This tablet features an 11.6-inch HD PLS screen with a 1366 x 768 resolution (400 nit), 2 GB of LPDDR2 memory, and a next-generation dual-core Intel Atom "Clover Trail" processor clocked at 1.5 GHz. It also comes packed with a rear-facing 8MP camera, a 2MP front-facing camera, and Intel SGX545 graphics.
On a connectivity level, the Samsung tablet sports 802.11 a/b/g/n connectivity, Bluetooth 4.0 LE, and an optional 4G LTE. It also provides 64 GB of internal storage, and a pre-loadeded trial version of Microsoft Office 2013 for productivity apps, including Microsoft Word, Excel & PowerPoint. A detachable keyboard-docking system lets users easily switch between a clamshell notebook PC and a tablet PC.
"AT&T is a leader in connected devices, and we are thrilled the Windows 8 tablets will be available on the nation's largest 4G network," said Chris Penrose, senior vice president, AT&T Emerging Devices. "With Windows 8, both tablets give customers an optimized touch interface, instant live tile updates and PC capabilities."
The company said customers purchasing Windows 8 tablets will have more options in choosing the plan that's right for them and their mobile devices. Just recently AT&T introduced Mobile Share plans, allowing new and existing customers to share a single bucket of data across all their devices. Customers on a Mobile Share plan can simply add their new Windows 8 tablet for $10 a month.
Both Windows 8 tablets will be available in AT&T company-owned retail stores and online at www.wireless.att.com in time for the holidays.

guess you've been missing what the windows 8 train been saying....
They primary dont like windows 8 on Desktops. Mainly because it doesn't boot too the desktop and too best utilize the new Windows 8 UI (formally metro), you'd need a touch screen which is expensive and you'd need to clean the finger prints off frequently.
Now many of the same people say this would fine on tablets because of it being touch based device.

My love for cream of celery soup began to dwindle about seven years ago, when my husband suggested replacing the cream with a potato, or two. I tried it and I liked it. You lose the silkiness that the cream offers, but you also lose the fat from the cream. Sure, it's a different idea, but the result is a hearty satisfying soup, or puree, as they call it in Spain. I still cling to the idea that anything that is liquid, warm, and has vegetables in it, is soup. But, in Spain, France, and in the culinary schools, once you blend a vegetable soup, it's puree.
I took healthy food preparation to a new level a couple of years ago, and I made one simple change to the celery/potato recipe–I cut out the potato. The result is low fat celery puree, which is rich and tasty, creamy but dairy free. You'll be going back for more!
Puree of Celery
1 medium onion
2 Tablespoons olive oil
1 Bay leaf
2 medium bunches of celery
1 Tablespoon Bragg's Amino Acids, or, 1 Tbsp. light soy sauce, or, Tamari soy
Salt and Pepper
*Optional Garnish – sliced green onion
Go on and try it. It's very tasty and healthy–and it's my favorite!

Snow Showers to Start TuesdayUPDATED 12:37 PM EDT Apr 14, 2014
Springtime snow arrives tonight. Roads stay mainly wet, but colder surfaces could see light accumulation.Video Transcript
will see some snow. What a swing over two days! Today rain (and maybe a stray storm) will be possible off and on. There will be some breaks in the rain through the afternoon and into the early evening. For the Reds game tonight, expect a wet dog smell for Bark in the Park. Rain will be possible throughout the game. Temperatures will be in the 50s. Then get ready for a big shock tomorrow... (and don't shoot the messenger) This rain is being chased by cold air. So by early tomorrow morning the very back edge of this system could be switching over to some sleet or snow. Before you totally freak out, remember that the ground is way too warm for any of the snow to stick. So while you may see some snowflakes nothing will impact your drive on the roads. The only places the snow will still will be the colder, raised surfaces like the car and the rooftops.

A close associate of former U.S. Rep. David Rivera has been denied bail a second time on charges of violating federal campaign finance laws.
U.S. District Judge Robert Scola on Wednesday ordered 44-year-old Ana Alliegro to remain jailed until her June trial. A magistrate judge previously denied bail. Alliegro was arrested in Nicaragua and prosecutors say she's a flight risk.
Alliegro is charged with illegally funneling over $80,000 to the 2012 Democratic U.S. House primary campaign of political unknown Justin Lamar Sternad. Sternad has pleaded guilty to campaign finance violations and is cooperating with prosecutors.
The case centers on whether Sternad was a straw candidate being used to weaken Democrat Joe Garcia, who eventually defeated Rivera for South Florida's 26th District U.S. House seat.
Rivera, a Republican, has denied any wrongdoing.

Hi Kenneth,
We have missed you at the Grady reunion. Hope all are well. I agree with all your comments. I think Bryant's parents are Nancy Ward and Miller Kornegay. I also think (but can't prove) that maybe Hester & Bryant moved to OK. Will keep digging.

Choosing a dental professional should never be as painful as a trip to the dentist's office. With this in mind, topDentists research group polled area dentists, asking, "If you had a patient in need of a dentist, which dentist would you refer them to?" The result: nearly 250 outstanding dentists, as chosen by their peers.
SLM also examined other issues, including the psychology behind a smile, engineering developments in dentistry, and local efforts to make less fortunate children grin.
We no longer take smiles for granted. We've realized how complicated they are…and how much they matter.
By Jeannette Cooperman
A smile can be an invitation, a dismissal, or the prelude to a kiss. We smile when we're happy—or want to seem so.
Smiling can win us friends and promotions and alter our psyche.
Is it any wonder people slap on braces at midlife, smear bleach on their coffee-stained teeth, puff up their lips with injections of a powerful neurotoxin, and buy porcelain veneers pricier than Limoges?
"Smiles are important signs of social approval," explains Dr. C. Robert Cloninger, a Washington University psychiatrist and geneticist known for his work on personality development and wellbeing. "They play a crucial role as a signal of friendship or social interest, whereas frowning puts people off or expresses disapproval. So smiles stimulate and maintain the formation of social bonds. Smiles can also be a sign of happiness—and the use of humor to cope with life's many difficulties and disappointments. So smiling can be a sign of maturity and healthy adaptive functioning."
Smiley Faces
A baby's first smile might occur in the middle of the night—and it might just be gas. But after a month of adults bending over the cradle and grinning like saps at every spontaneous smile, babies learn the social smile. At first, they're probably just copying their parents, echoing their joy and thus learning how it feels to be happy. Eventually, though, it dawns on them that whenever they smile and gurgle at us, they make us happy. At that point, a smile becomes a baby's version of a stand-up comedian's fallback joke.
Babies' smiles are the genuine sort, pulling up their cheeks into little apples and squinching their eyes. We now call such an expression a Duchenne smile—after the 19th-century French neurologist Guillaume-Benjamin-Amand Duchenne, who first isolated the muscle contractions involved in the most basic and sincere human facial expressions.
Last year, researchers at the University of California, Berkeley published a list of six archetypal smiles, starting with the Duchenne grin and moving on to the coy, flirty smile that's paired with a direct gaze, even though the body is turned slightly away or the head tilted down.
Next came the amused smile, which lingers after a hearty laugh or catches a bit of irony that no one else noticed.
"If you're making one of these smiles, you don't necessarily want to approach the other person to meet their needs," neurologist Emiliana Simon-Thomas told reporters last October, when the study was released. The other three smiles surveyed, though, were proactive: The love smile, offered with a tilted head and soft eyes, seeks intimacy; the interested smile, with raised eyebrows and a slight grin, asks for details or to be included in the game; the embarrassed smile, sometimes with eyes downcast, begs forgiveness.
We're All Mona Lisa
A simple smile—one that does not raise the cheeks or squinch the eyes—might be a cautious overture, or it might be fake, a smile deliberately summoned to smooth an obligatory social interaction.
Paul Ekman, who was named one of the most influential psychologists of the 20th century by the American Psychological Association, is the master of the micro-expression, using slowed-down film footage and close scrutiny of the facial muscles to detect deception and emotional nuance. He's pointed out smiles that hide fear, conceal contempt, or mask pain—and demonstrated how easy they are to distinguish from an authentic, felt smile. A recent Brandeis University study found that older adults are better at making that distinction. After years of life experience, they know intuitively whether a smile is genuine or forced.
Others who've grown adept at reading smiles are people who've been through a breakup or lost a job, suggested a study published in the January 2010 Journal of Experimental Social Psychology. Simply by gauging the sincerity of people's smiles, those groups proved better equipped to choose genuine allies in the workplace.
Yale University psychology professor Marianne LaFrance recently wrote a book that's a mouthful: Lip Service: Smiles in Life, Death, Trust, Lies, Work, Memory, Sex, and Politics. She points out that a real smile involves the whole face; a fake smile uses only the mouth. A real smile appears easily and lasts only a few seconds; a fake smile "seems to snap on and is held too long." Also, a real smile is symmetrical; when one side of the mouth curves more than the other, sarcasm and contempt enter the picture.
The Gender Divide
Women are better at reading smiles than men—and women smile more often than men. They even have larger smile muscles, which leads to a chicken-and-egg question: Do they smile more easily because their face lends itself to a smile, or are their muscles larger because they smile more? (The question's moot if a woman injects enough Botox, because it can paralyze the muscles involved in real smiles.)
So why do men, especially those high in status, smile less? Perhaps because a smile can seem submissive. A woman's smile is known to signal sexual interest, and it works: Men are most sexually attracted to women who look happy and least sexually attracted to women who look strong and confident, found a 2011 study at the University of British Columbia. Conversely, the women in the study were least attracted to smiling, happy men. They preferred a certain hauteur—strong and silent, arrogant and powerful, or dark and brooding. The logical explanation comes from evolutionary biology: Women want proud, high-status, dominant males who will be competent to provide for them and their offspring. And men don't want strong, confident women who might challenge their dominance.
Monkeying Around
Speaking of evolution…we owe society to our smiles. "Earlier primates and mammals lacked the flexible facial muscles that allow smiles," Cloninger says, "but the expressiveness of the faces of monkeys allowed them to function in large social groups."
For the humans who followed, smiles became social glue. But now, Cloninger warns, technology's stealing those smiles: "One of the things lost in much social media is the direct observation of moment-to-moment variation in facial expressions and eye contact." Messaging and texts don't give that richness—no matter how many emoticons you add. "The addition of video chat, however, is consistent with monkeys, chimps, and humans liking facial communication," he notes, "and especially liking smiles as a sign of social approval and good humor." Video chat allows us to add the nonverbal communication we've come to rely on; it feels more holistic. But it's still not perfect: "Notice that videoconferencing has not replaced traveling to meet in person," Cloninger says. Compared to live smiles and handshakes, "video is less effective, even in business."
Fortune Smiles
A 2010 study in Psychological Science indicated that people who grin broadly might wind up with crow's feet, but they'll live longer. And a study in the February 2011 Academy of Management Journal found a huge difference in the mood of bus drivers when they faked smiles and when, by thinking positive thoughts, they summoned real smiles. On days when the smiles were forced, the drivers' moods deteriorated, and they tended to withdraw from work. On days when pleasant thoughts and memories made their smiles genuine, their overall moods improved and their productivity increased.
Why? Ekman and his colleagues have found that the Duchenne smile reaches parts of the brain associated with pleasure and happiness. A fake, mouth-only smile does not. If you learn how to fake a Duchenne smile, however, lifting your cheeks and crinkling the skin around your eyes, you can produce similar brain activity—improving not only your own mood, but also that of anyone in your company.
Smile, and the world smiles with you.
Engineers at the University of Missouri in Columbia have created a new tool called the "plasma brush" that could change the way dental fillings are treated—and possibly cut down on the need for costly tooth repairs. The brush, developed in collaboration with researchers at Nanova, uses plasma technology to quickly disinfect cavities for fillings. "We want to solve a common problem in dentistry," explains associate professor of engineering Hao Li. The brush uses a flame to treat the surface of the tooth, so it's more compatible with the filler and creates a longer-lasting bond between the tooth and the filling. Clinical trials are in development for this summer, and the brush could be
available to dentists by next year. —Todd Schuessler
Don't floss? You're not alone. Studies reveal that only 3 percent of the population flosses twice daily, according to South County dentist Dr. Dan Sindelar. People might change their habits, though, if they knew flossing could significantly reduce the risk of a heart attack. In his new book, Refresh Life, Sindelar describes some of the health problems that can stem from poor oral hygiene, including cardiovascular disease, stroke, and diabetes. Flossing can control the main oral offenders, bacteria and inflammation. But for one in three people, a genetic predisposition to "hyper-respond" to inflammation in the mouth can lead to other health problems. Sindelar recommends a simple rinse test to determine whether you're genetically predisposed. —Todd Schuessler
To address the lack of dental care available to some St. Louis children, Dr. Thomas Flavin helped to create Give Kids a Smile (636-397-6453, givekidsasmile.org), a nonprofit committed to "taking care of some of the kids that we knew were being underserved and marginalized," he says. Area dentists and volunteers hold free bi-annual dental clinics at Saint Louis University's Center for Advanced Dental Education to provide dental care for children whom area schools identify as at-risk. St. Louis–based Smile Squared (smilesquared.com) is also trying to better the smiles of those in need. It sells biodegradable/recyclable toothbrushes on a buy-one-give-one model at area stores and dentist's offices. The company also sends toothbrushes out to those in need all over the globe. —Sarah George

Memorial Day is a time to pay tribute to the men and women who have given the ultimate sacrifice so that all of us can live in freedom. On this day we remember those brave souls who have died in military service to our country.
Memorial Day has its roots in the Civil War when Union soldiers were honored on what was then called Decoration Day. It became known as Memorial Day in 1882. After World War I, Memorial Day expanded to include anyone who died while serving in any war or military action.
Indeed, over the years thousands of people have died to protect the freedoms that we as American enjoy each day. We owe each of these American heroes much gratitude and appreciation.
Take some time this Memorial Day to pause, remember and pay tribute to our fallen heroes.

$45 Negatives Could be Lost Ansel Adams Photos
Richard Norsigian bought the 60 glass negatives nearly ten years ago from a guy in Fresno. He says he talked the man down from $60.
The negatives all date back to the 1920s and 1930s and were each kept inside manila envelopes that were deteriorating in age.
Norsigian had the negatives scanned and developed into prints, which friends and family said resembled the work of famed photographer Ansel Adams.
Adams, known for his black and white photos of Yosemite National Park, also used the glass negative format.
Norsigian began researching Adams to determine if the prints actually were authentic.
He enlisted the help of Los Angeles-area attorney Arnold Peter, who gathered a group of forensic experts.
A handwriting expert confirmed that the writing on the envelopes was that of Virginia Adams -- Ansel's wife.
"That was a turning point," Norsigian said.
A meteorological expert compared Norsigian's negatives to published Adams photographs taken at the same California location. Norsigian says the expert determined the photos were taken on the same day after looking at the cloud formation, the snow on the mountains and the shadow cast by a tree.
Norsigian's attorney says the negatives are worth millions.
Based on what I've seen, there is the notion that someone other than Ansel Adams took any of these photographs is just not reasonable or rational," Peter said.
Ansel Adams Trust denies the authenticity of the collection.
Still, collectors have been offering Norsigian hefty amounts of money for the negatives.

Mississippi Mental Health Advocates Call For Focus On KidsBy Jeffrey Hess | Published 08 May 2014 07:02pm |
Roughly 131-thousand Mississippi kids are currently dealing with a mental health disorder, and children's advocates say it is time to address the problem. MPB's Jeffrey Hess reports that leaders in the state say untreated mental health issues is hurting the state's future.
Untreated mental health issues are at the root of other problems facing the state such as obesity, teen pregnancy, and high school drop outs according to University of Mississippi psychologist David Elkin.
"What if we could try to help them with those issues and see if those issues got better. So if you could find kids who are depressed and help them with their depression and anxiety and see if it helps with graduation or obesity," Elkin said.
Governor Phil Bryant spoke at the gathering of Children's advocates, health professions and businesses leaders in Jackson to focusing on ways to improve delivery of mental health services to Mississippi's kids.
He floated the idea of forming what he calls a 'children's cabinet' to coordinate care across the state.
The incoming head of the Department of Mental Health Diana Mikula says services are available for people who seek them out.
"They are getting treatment. They are getting treatment through Mississippi's public mental health system. Through organizations like private and not for profit organizations. And across the state it is an issue we are addressing," Mikula said.
But some advocates and parents of children with mental health issues insist that the state is not doing enough to help children with mental health problems.
Nikki Flippins, the mother of two children with mental health illnesses, says the schools have been more interested in passing her children along rather than finding treatments them.
"they kind of put the kids on a convery belt and it doesn't really matter how much they learn. They just continue to move through the grades and then you end up in middle school and a lot of the time that is when its start to act out," Flippins said.
In 20-11 the federal department of justice said the state was violating federal law for relying too much on institutionalizing people and children with mental issues instead of using home and community based care.
The state legislature responded last year by adding 16-million to the Department of Mental Health to address the findings.

If you're dealing with insomnia or other sleep problems, aromatherapy may offer some relief. Preliminary research shows that certain essential oils may help promote relaxation and, in turn, encourage sounder sleep. While scientists have yet to determine how or why aromatherapy might help alleviate sleep problems, it's thought that inhaling essential oil molecules (or absorbing essential oils through the skin) may influence brain chemicals involved in controlling sleep.
The Science Behind Aromatherapy and Sleep
To date, there is very limited scientific support for aromatherapy's effects on sleep. However, early research shows that lavender essential oil may be of some benefit when it comes to easing sleep problems. For instance, a 2006 study of 42 women with insomnia found that four weeks of treatment with lavender aromatherapy helped relieve insomnia (in addition to reducing symptoms of depression). A 2005 study of 31 healthy sleepers, meanwhile, showed that lavender aromatherapy promoted deeper sleep (most likely due to lavender's mild sedative effects). And in a 2008 study of infants, researchers found that adding lavender-enriched oil to the bath helped increase participants' sleep time.
Chamomile and ylang-ylang essential oils also appear to improve sleep, according to a 2005 review of medicinal plants for insomnia.
Should You Use Aromatherapy for Sleep Problems?
Although aromatherapy is generally considered safe, some individuals may experience irritation when applying essential oils to the skin. Since essential oils are extremely potent, you should always take caution when using aromatherapy. To start, make sure to blend your essential oil with a carrier oil (such as jojoba or sweet almond oil) before applying it to the skin. Furthermore, essential oils should never be taken internally without the supervision of a health professional.
Learn more about using essential oils safely, and talk to your doctor if you're considering the use of aromatherapy in treatment of a sleep disorder.
How to Use Aromatherapy for Sleep Problems
There are many ways to use essential oils to ease your sleep problems. One approach is to massage your neck, shoulders, and any other areas with a relaxing essential oil blend. You could also shake three or four drops of a sleep-promoting essential oil onto your pillow just before you're going to sleep, or unwind with an essential-oil-enhanced bath before bedtime.

My first exchange with native speakers (Emily)
... didn't think I could have so much fun and also learn so much at the same time. One of the guys from Extremadura even told me that my Spanish is very good! I think the biggest problem with me (and most people when they are not comfortable speaking a second language) is that it just makes me so nervous to put myself out there and speak my broken Spanish - especially to people who know I sound kind of silly sometimes. But there is no other way to grow. So, from now on I am going to ...
Exploring downtown Santander (Emily)
... candy store with Kindereggs and Chupa Chups (our favorite Spanish candies). We then sat by the harbor for a while and watched all the sailboats in the bay. It was nice to finally explore the town we will be staying in for the next three weeks- and it's such a beautiful quaint little European town. There was even a festival going on downtown today ...
Free Day in Santander! (Ashley)

After walking around and noting that EVERY store was closed, we checked out a candy shop. While this wouldn't normally be something worth mentioning, I had my first Kinder sorpresa! It's a hollow chocolate egg with a toy inside! Sounds safe for kids right? Anyway, it was excellent!
After scoping out the town, we wanted nothing more but to go to the beach and get ...

... islands. You start by walking by the docks and then you hit a beach, followed by a park, then more beaches, and another park. By the time I walked along the city coastline, and then around the first park, I was pretty tired. I would have stopped here and gone back to the apartment, but Jacquelien sent me a photo that was in a park, and I figured it had to be in the next park along, so I had to go check it out. I'm really glad I did.
Finally - a beach day! (Emily)
... England has been hanging out with us more and more, and learning about even our cultural differences is very interesting. For example, if there is a line at a restaurant, the English will say there is a "queue" instead of there is a wait or a line. They also say "crisps" instead of chips. Also, there were two guys from holland hanging out with us. They shared some ...

Who knew people wanted me to do tutorials and crit groups? I'm always so surprised when things like this crop up, the un-expected love.
Catch you fuckers at a bad time?
I hope there's wi-fi in my hotel whilst I'm away..
Mother nature is definitely a dude.
In other news, only 3 more days until I get to take a little trip to Greece. Put my face in the sun and sea. So if there's nothing for a week and a half you may know why.
Hey friend, how did you get into illustration? Did you take classes or enroll in school?
I came upon a tiny woodland troll whilst hopping amongst the shrubbery. He was rather stout for such a small thing, more so noticeable he was purple. Upon questioning him as to why he felt it necessary to become part of this rather short tale of distraction from the boring truth. Jeb (we were on first term names by this time) just shrugged his shoulders, rolled himself into a fleshy purple ball and floated away with the breeze.
Ok so -
This coming september I'm going to be taking on some comissions. There are currently 4 slots available. If you're interested send an email to email@example.com
If you guys would like just a digital copy they shall be substantially cheaper.
Submissions of low and poor quality photos will not surfice.
So we hit 5k!
I guess that's justification for another glass of wine, if there were any!
