Boy, I'm like a few reviewers below me. This brew just didn't do it for me. From the moment I popped the cap, the smell had me anticipating a world-class experience. But this ale is just too sweet and the smell and aftertaste much like my grandma's perfume. Brasserie's Grand Cru is much preferred...

Dark mucky brown in appearance with a ton of suspended sediment, as seems to be the norm for this brewery. The nose and taste are both equally cloying, bringing to mind overripe figs, candied fruit, raisins, toffee and rum. Mouthfeel is syrupy despite the ample carbonation. Too sweet and candy-like, with no bitterness to be found anywhere. I guess this brewery is simply not my bag, as I've disliked everything I've tried by them.

A: Pours a murky reddish/brown color. At first a one finger tan head forms and recedes to a rim quickly. Light patchy lace.
S: Moldy, dry wood with some dark fruity esters and yeast. Lots of alcohol from the start.
T: Again, very dry wood, and charcoal. Sweet caramel malt that is almost cloying. Some dark fruit flavors. Alcohol again. One of the driest and sweetest beers I have had in a long time.
M/D: A medium body but way over carbonated. The heavy prickly carbonation, mixed with the alcohol and dryness really makes for a hard beer to drink.
I can see how this would appeal to some people. It is worth a try. I don't think this is for me though. I do enjoy beers on the drier side, but this seems like liquid wood to me.

I have to say I was extremely disappointed with this beer. After reading so many positive reviews, I guess I had high hopes, but it reminded me more of a homebrew gone wrong than a world class belgian brown.
It poured a russet amber, clear but with a lot of sediment. I assume the sediment is intentional, so it doesn't really bother me. The foamy creamy coloured head lasts, but leaves no lacing as I drink.
The nose smells off. It's way sweet and flowery. There's almost a gummi-bear undertone to it. You can smell some molasses/brown sugar underneath as well.
The taste is sweet. Brown sugar and molasses. As previously mentioned, it reminds me of a homebrew I had that hadn't fermented properly and had too much molasses/brown sugar added to it. It almost tastes like gingerbread cookies in beer form, but not as glorious as that could sound. There's some bready malt in there as well, and a bitterness to the finish, that could be balancing, but just seems... thrown in.
It's a weird one to drink. Not undrinkable (I'll finish this pint), but not one that I would seek out. You won't find me buying this one again. Maybe there's something off about this bottle specifically, but this doesn't taste like a beer that went bad, just a poorly constructed brew. I wouldn't purchase it again, but if someone else had one I'd taste it off the strength of the other reviews. Proceed with caution.

From a 1pint, 9.4 fl. oz bottle with elegant black foil, this beer pours an off-color purple, reddish-brown color with minimal head... very similar to the brewery's Triple Imperiale, the smell is distinguished with a strong alcohol essence in addition to sweet caramels and dark Belgian brown sugar... Taste is very rich and thick, with a rich, malty, medicinal-like component... alcohol is very detectable and is not well masked behind a strong conglomeration of flavors... somewhat bland and watery mouthfeel detracted points, and the heavy alcohol presence chipped away at the drinkability... certainly a unique and distinguishable brew, but this one's not for me... for the price paid, not recommended...

11.2 ounce bottle, poured into Belgian style chalice, approx. 40 degrees
A) Brown shoe leather, slightly hazy, very little head
S) Root beer & licorice
T: Raisins, sweet & sour candies
M) Flat and thin. Not the best example of Belgian strong ale
D) I had higher expectations for this beer. I purchased a 4 pack and have downed 3 of them over the past 2 weeks. I was dissapointed with the first, so I've waited until the 3rd to complete this review. This beer is lacks carbonation and thus rather flat.

Okay, I had this problem before with their Grand Cru.
Be extremely, extremely careful when opening this. Actually, don't be careful, be very aggressive, and have your glass handy. The cap is oversized, so if you save your caps like I do, you're usually careful not to bend them - and any regular bottle opener doesn't work. Trying to get the cap off results in fountains of this beer going everywhere - pop it off as fast as you can, and get the foaming mess into your glass, because if you're not fast, you'll lose it to the floor.
I don't know why the hell this stuff is so overcarbonated. It's really annoying, actually. If everyone else can get bottle-conditioning right, these guys should be able to, with their reputation.
What you get in the glass is dark brown with ruby highlights, capped with a yellow-tan head. It leaves behind no lacing.
The scent is of raisins dipped in brown sugar then braised in a pan with a few dollops of rum and whiskey - a slightly roasty, alcoholic brown kind of smell with fruit and sugary tones.
Taste echoes the smell, but isn't as good - roasty oak, some dark fruit, rum, burnt sugars, and a bittering finish.
Mouthfeel is just way off - way too carbonated, it results in an unpleasant swishy, frothy feel, and it seems like you can actually taste the excess of carbon dioxide.
Drinkability... it's not bad.... but for a belgian strong dark, I expect a lot better.

The aroma has caramel, toasted malt, spices/fruit (orange, ginger), and yeast. The appearance is deep amber with a two finger head. There are lots of floating particles. The flavor is complex and like the aroma. The palate is sticky but thin. The aftertaste is bitter and toasty. Despite the positive qualities it doesn't strike me as great. I am not a huge fan but it's interesting.

Pours out to a cloudy dark amber, forming a peaking whipped beige head with superior retention and very nice lacing. There is a copious amount of disgusting debris (which looks and smells like fish-flakes) floating in the beer...quite a turn off, and I'm not quite sure I want to drink this (I have bad memories of Kwak). It's tough giving this an even rating because the head is gorgeous, but damn, this beer looks honestly disgusting. The aroma is very funky...like rotting barnyard hay soaked in horse urine, wet horse (Brett at it's most distinct), very, very rotten fruit (bananas, apples, and cherries), the stink of rotten mushrooms, syrupy dark fruits, faint skunk, distant malt vinegar...the aroma is as revolting as it sounds, but I am brave. Mouthfeel is initially spritzy, then soft with a deceptively light body. It gives me a queezy feeling to the stomach, probably because the aroma is initially just so revolting. Taste begins with medium intensity fruity sourness (like spontaneously fermented raw apple cider), gives way to plentiful prunes, dates and figs, followed by a very pervasive and off-putting metallic note with a light amount of skunk. The mouthfeel towards the end becomes wet, and slightly oxidized. Alcohol is perceptable as warmth, and lightly so in flavor. An aftertaste of rum-soaked dates and Djarum's lingers forever on the tongue. I eventually get used to the aroma and it isn't quite so bad now...kinda like the first time you eat sushi and realize you're eating raw fish. It's not so much the actual taste, but the thought that grosses me out. BTW, this brew induced a brief episode of manual dyshydrosis and mild bronchospasm about 40 minutes after I started drinking it (Just FYI..May I suggest diphenhydramine prior to imbibing?).
Well, what can I say. This is a mixed bag. I can certainly appreciate the craftsmanship put into this beer, but that doesn't necessarily mean I consider someone dumping a jar of fish-food into my brew-ha "crafty". Though I can get used to the odor, the metallic twang is too strong to dismiss, and it ultimately limits the appeal of this brew. Personally speaking, a mild allergic reaction also limits it's drinkability. Considering the rave reviews, I'm glad I've tried it. Perhaps some day it will grow on me, but today I'll stick to my Sour Flemish Ales, Tripples, and Dubbles. Plus, these brews don't make me vasodilatory:)

deep and dark in color with some red showing. very nice head. smells boozy! dark flavor/smells like raisins, chocolate, toffee, plum. too much booze in the palate. rich and pruney flavors. creamy and full bodied. slightly too much alcoholic flavor for me; I wish it were a little more graceful.

3.2/5 rDev -24.3%
Pours a very opaque and cloudy light brown and amber with an ecru head that has some staying power and produces lots of spider-web like lacing on the goblet. Lots of yeasties floating in the glass
Aroma has a musty hay and grass underpinning with some chocolate, caramel, bread and coriander tones also.
Flavor starts with some darker spectrum fruitiness on the sour side and then moves to a more chocolate/caramel type of note but the sourness persists. Almost wonder if bottle is bad, the musty and sour notes are a tad off-putting.
Mouthfeel is dominated by citric sourness, alcohol presence cuts this a bit but not enough to save the beer in my opinion. Just doesn't offer the range of palate feel I expect from world class Belgian brews, very one-dimensional.
Drinkability was slightly above average but only just. In a blind tasting i would have bet this come from Jolly Pumpkin, not Abbaye Des Rocs. Very much a let down given the excellence of the other offerings from this excellent brewery.

750 ml bottle (best by 2010) into a Duvel tulip.
The amber-copper body of Des Rocs Brune mingles with hues of ruby red and plum; small bits of yeast float throughout. The fizzy-sounding, light tan head builds slowly to an inch in height before quickly retreating to a thin cap and ring of tight bubbles. Spicier aroma than I was expecting, with dominant notes of dried orange peel, grass, and a pungent, flowery hop presence. The maltiness is more muted, suggesting dark bread, brown sugar, and molasses.
I'm fairly sure the bottle I purchased had not gone "bad", but my taste buds definitely disagree with the high marks this beer has earned. Starts off with a slightly oaken, almost sour bite balanced somewhat poorly by a sweet, sugary presence. Where did all the spice go? Finishes bland and semi-metallic, with no aftertaste from either hops or yeast. Mouthfeel is nicely carbonated, but the medium body takes on a syrupy, sticky-sweet consistency that disagrees with my palate. Overall, this was a fairly unimpressive beer...judging from other reviews, quality control seems to be an issue for this Belgian import. Still, I'll probably try it again sometime just in case I did happen upon an "off" bottle.

Deep dark ruby color, this beer had a tremendous amount of carbonation supporting a tough foam head with a perfect flat top and creamy sheen. Thick lace all over.
Ester scents, as well as sweet malt and som serious dough yeast scent. Had a soft roastiness that was barely sweet and some soft spices. Tasted of a smooth Grand Cru malt, rosy, firm, and full. I thought there was soft roastiness with a barky heft, but then again some cherries. Finished with plenty of alcohol and an astringent bitterness calming down to floral hop flavors.
Smooth and easy mouthfeel is very nice. But seriously, this is not one Id necessarily go back to. Had the exact same experience with their Grand Cru. This never tastes that good, ever, no matter how many times I've tried their beers. The hops are nasty and overtake your mouth in the finish and the malt has little character. Maybe their results are inconsistent like Dogfish Head, because none of the charming scents and flavors are found in their beers when I drink them. Flat malt, doughy yeast, and distasteful hops. I love a delicate and subtle beer, but I'm catching none of what everyone else is heralding, only lackluster versions of what they're describing (i.e. spices, fruits, wine, etc.)

Poured from a big 750ml capped (not corked) bottle. Popped with little fanfare but then literally exploded onto my counter. A good 10% of the beer shot out as foam over the first 30 seconds of being open. The foam was dense with chunks of yeast or possibly grains. This bottle sat in cellar for a good six months without being disturbed, so I simply cannot say why it was so out of control.
Body is very cloudy dark orange, with big huge clumps from bottom to head. Head is massive, dark, and retains well. Little lacing, but the glass is flecked with debris all around.
Smell is hugely of cola and spicy funk. Not musty at all, but so yeasty it's overwhelming. Some orange peel and maybe some passionfruit. Cardamom undertones. Cedar.
Taste is sweet but light in body. Lots of candi, lots of dextrins. Mineral water base with tons of half-baked bread, molasses, and fig. Some backing spice, undefinable but almost chile-like.
On returning to the bottle for a second glass, the beer has once more crawled it's way out of the neck and onto my counter. This is one LIVE beer.
Warmer temps bring out some bitterness that compliments the fruit well but fights with the spice. Seems to become lighter still and more boozy rather than sweet. Ginger-like florals.
By the final glass, the beer was totally flat. No head could be coaxed from the last pour. This final glass was also 2/3 sediment - gritty and sour.
It's clear that I got an over-primed bottle, and possibly one of some age. Still, a great-smelling beer. Taste didn't carry the party line quite as well as I might have, but is a rewarding sipper all on it's own. Feels clean in the mouth, though you can actually feel the chunks of sediment, which is unsettling (so to speak). Would like to try again in hopes of better luck in finding a bottle I can actually finish.

a - a ton of huge chunkies in this one, I don't mind some sediment, but this was excessive, deep rusty color, huge yellowish head, good retention and lacing
s - rum, sugar, overripe dark fruits, plum, raisins, caramel
t - strong caramel, plum, and raisin, lingering dark fruit and sugar, some booze
m - medium-bodied, lower carbonation, sweet finish, some alcohol warming
d - not overly drinkable for my palate, a bit too sweet, the alcohol isn't overwhelming though
Decent beer overall, but this is the second Abbaye des Rocs beer I've had with chunkage issues. I am drinking this prior to the best by date as well. Not my style, but worth a try.

I wanted (yet) another St Bernadus Christmas on tap, but the strength was just too high so I settled for a bottle of this on that fateful afternoon I first visited The Red Rose in Brugge.
The 9% ABV being a whole 1% less than the St Bernadus I felt very righteous and the wife didn't notice the alcohol content (double bonus).
Nine tenths of the beer was poured for me into the glass, the remaining sediment infested tenth I swallowed at the end. The beer was a deep, deep brown, red, purple colour, mostly red I suppose: on top an off-white head that fades fair too swiftly.
The smells are mostly sweet: molasses and sugar on toast, there is also a yeasty, dirty aroma hidden away that comes out when the beer begins to warm in the glass.
This isn't a gulper; you've got to sip it: the flavours are complex and confusing. Sweet up front with a malt flavour, leaning towards burnt candy floss and treacle tarts as you get into it.
Rich, but not as thick as you might imagine, certainly different to what I expected.
Strange brew, would have preferred another St Bernadus to be honest!

The beer is clouded light brown, a warm off-white extremely large head that leaves good lacing but rather small curtains.
Sweet dried fruits, some spices and yeast.
Sweet bread, raisins, dates, syrup, orange and plum marmalade, some bitter orange peel.
High carbonation, small intense bubbles, sticky with a good body, a short dry finish.
Sweet, potent and powerful.

The Tipton County commissioners have started the process for a committee to determine whether the county needs to build a new jail or renovate the existing one.
Commissioners asked county officials and Tipton Mayor Don Havens Wednesday to submit a list of people who are willing to serve on a committee to study jail overcrowding and whether renovations are needed to the Tipton County Courthouse.
Local residents interested in serving on the committee were asked to contact Auditor Greg Townsend.
Mike Cline, president of the Board of County Commissioners, said the committee also would determine whether the county should hire a consulting firm at an estimated cost of $50,000.
"We will start with a study group and then decide if we need to hire a consultant," he said.
The study committee also will be asked to determine whether there is support among county residents to pay for the project, Cline said.
Commissioner Joe VanBibber said the project should be community driven.
Last year, consultants recommended construction of a new 100-bed jail facility for Tipton County. The consultants estimated the cost at between $7 million and $11 million. The consultants said it would be difficult to expand the existing jail because of its current location.
The existing jail has bed space for 27 inmates, and the average daily inmate population is 40.
Sheriff John Moses said the jail population Wednesday was 23, which is the lowest it has been in 22 months.
Consultants also recommended $3.5 million in renovation work to the courthouse, including a new elevator, restrooms on the third floor and the moving of several offices to increase storage space in the building.
Whitesell retires
In other business, Highway Superintendent Larry Whitesell announced his retirement effective Friday after more than 11 years on the job.
The commissioners named Brett Morris as interim highway superintendent.
"I turned 65 yesterday," Whitesell said. "What it means to me is to go home and play. It has been a privilege to work for Tipton County. I learned a lot about how local government works."
Whitesell said his hobbies include blacksmithing, and tending to a team of draft horses and several farm tractors.

The absolute best way to cook asparagus, and SO SIMPLE! Season with olive oil, salt, pepper, and parmesan cheese; bake at 400 for 8 minutes. / perfection.
Hey Julie! I'm a little more of a lax advisor - I feel that moderation is key to long term success. Both sea salt and table salt contain about 40 percent sodium. So to maintain a heart-healthy lifestyle you definitely need to reduce your sodium, but don't give up a little flavor if it means you'll stick to a healther overall lifestyle. Hope this helps!
The Parmesan is so good, skip the salt if using it. Had this at a restaurant in NYC 15 years ago when I had hyperemesis with my second pregnancy. It was the first food I'd kept down in 5 months so my husband told the waiter to bring two more orders. The slightly browned Parmesan transforms the asparagus, people love this simple dish.

Gratin of Zucchini & Tomatoes
From EatingWell: Summer 2003
Two of summer's stellar vegetables are layered here, along with a few other choice ingredients, to make a delicious baked gratin. As soon as it's pulled from the oven, fresh Parmesan cheese is sprinkled over the top.

- 3 cloves garlic, crushed
- 2/3 cup fresh basil leaves
- 1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves
- 2 cups fresh whole-wheat breadcrumbs, (see Tip), divided
- 1/2 cup finely chopped sweet onion, such as Vidalia
- 3 large ripe tomatoes, diced
- 1 tablespoon red-wine vinegar
- 1/4 teaspoon salt, divided
- 3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, divided
- 3 medium zucchini, (about 1 3/4 pounds total), sliced on the bias about 1/4 inch thick
- Freshly ground pepper, to taste
- 3/4 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
- Preheat oven to 400°F. Coat a 9-by-13-inch baking dish (or similar gratin dish) with cooking spray.
- Place garlic, basil and thyme on your chopping board; mince well. Spread half the breadcrumbs evenly in the prepared baking dish. Strew onion over the breadcrumbs. Distribute half the diced tomato over the onion, then sprinkle with half the garlic-herb mixture. Sprinkle with vinegar and 1/8 teaspoon salt.
- Heat 2 teaspoons oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add a third of the zucchini; you want it to sauté, not stew, so don't crowd it. Sauté, turning the pieces once, until golden and not quite tender, 1 to 1 1/2 minutes per side. When the slices are done, use a fork to transfer them to the gratin, overlapping the slices. Cook the remaining zucchini in two batches, each time using 2 teaspoons oil. Strew the remaining tomatoes and garlic-herb mixture over the zucchini. Season with the remaining 1/8 teaspoon salt and a grinding of pepper. Toss the remaining 1 cup breadcrumbs with the remaining 1 tablespoon oil and sprinkle over the gratin.
- Bake the gratin until bubbly hot, 20 to 25 minutes. Remove from the oven and immediately sprinkle with Parmesan.
Tips & Notes
- Tip: To make fresh breadcrumbs:
- Trim crusts from firm sandwich bread. Tear bread into pieces and process in a food processor until coarse crumbs form. One slice of bread makes about 1/3 cup crumbs.

Andrew Strauss doesn't pose, shout, or try to shove all his players into one mould. Being his own man may just be his greatest virtue
Ed Smith
August 15, 2012

Players/Officials: Andrew Strauss | Kevin Pietersen
Series/Tournaments: South Africa tour of England
Teams: England
Andrew Strauss plays his 100th Test for England tomorrow. I was an exact contemporary of Strauss - at school, university and in county cricket. Few predicted he would play 100 Tests. Indeed, Strauss himself would have laughed at the idea when he was starting out as a cricketer. Owais Shah, not Strauss, was the teenage Middlesex prodigy. Not that Strauss minded not being the centre of attention. Waiting for the right moment, biding his time - that is the hallmark of his distinguished career.
Some sportsmen declare their hand at the outset. Graeme Smith always said he wanted to captain South Africa when he was still a kid. Strauss, in contrast, is not someone to reveal his hand so lightly. Did he always have deep ambitions that were hidden by his self-effacing English reserve? Or did he only realise by increments - as he gradually worked his way through the field - that he could go so far, as a player and a captain? I've never been sure of the answer. Perhaps he isn't either.
In one crucial respect, Strauss has never changed. He has always had the social and psychological confidence to be himself. As a player, he has never puffed out his chest in phony displays of patriotic guts and determination. As a captain, he is more interested in calmness and balance than show-off field placings or macho arm-waving.
Being yourself is the most underrated virtue in sport, as we've learnt once again during the London Olympics. Some sports psychologists have argued that athletes could unlock hidden potential if they adopted the same uber-relaxed, super-confident pre-race routine as Usain Bolt.
I take the opposite view. The lesson of Usain Bolt (apart from the obvious one: be more talented than everyone else) is the profound value of being yourself. Watch again the few seconds before the 200 metre final, as the sprinters are introduced to the crowd. Bolt, of course, does his usual showman act - clowning and gesturing, looking at once intimidating and relaxed.
The revealing thing is that all the other sprinters awkwardly followed his example, trying to project the aura of Bolt without the underlying conviction. The American sprinter Wallace Spearmon stared into the camera lens as he shouted with bristling machismo, "My time, my time!" - all of which did nothing to persuade anyone that it was his time, but merely reinforced the truth that it was Bolt's.
Like Bolt, a very few lucky cricketers - such as Sir Vivian Richards or Ian Chappell - are naturally ultimate alpha males. The rest have to reach an accommodation with the fact that they are extremely good performers without being kings of the jungle. The most common mistake is to copy the wrong example - to try to be something you're not - like the sprinters who try to act like Bolt without being Bolt.
During the period of Australian supremacy, England teams wasted too much energy trying to behave like Australians, as though the skills would follow naturally from the style. But it doesn't work like that. Being yourself is always the best policy.
Strauss has been the master of being himself. Like Mark Taylor, he has never tried to hide the fact that he is a courteous, measured and controlled person. He has never got sucked into behaving like an alpha male show-off. That innate confidence has allowed the England team to grow up.
The most effective captains do not impose their own personality on the group; they encourage the team to develop its own authentic voice. Strauss celebrates diversity rather trying to shoehorn all players into one model. "I wouldn't want to captain a team in which everyone is like me," he has said. It gets to the heart of his captaincy.
And yet, for all his achievements, Strauss takes to the field in his 100th Test under undeniable pressure. He has just endured one of the most difficult spells of his captaincy. On the field, England have suffered a poor 2012 in Tests. Whatever happens at Lord's, they have failed to win a home series against a great rival.
Off the pitch, the estrangement of Kevin Pietersen from the England management (more on this in a moment) has been an uncomfortable circus for everyone involved. And it would be only human, for a player about to win his 100th cap, to regret that the Pietersen issue has dominated the lead-up to such an important Test.
|Strauss has been the master of being himself. Like Mark Taylor, he has never tried to hide the fact that he is a courteous, measured and controlled person
But paradoxically, when he looks back at his England career, Strauss may be grateful that he entered his 100th Test with so much riding on the result. Far from being an easy lap of honour, Strauss' 100th Test is exactly that - another test of character. And sport - as Strauss knows very well - is at its most rewarding when it is most challenging.
A fortnight ago I added a second, shorter item to my column to accommodate an instinct I had about Kevin Pietersen. It seemed to me, looking from the outside, that something big was about to happen. I had no evidence beyond a deep-seated hunch. Pietersen had been looking increasingly distant and hurt, and the England management seemed to be losing patience.
But I noticed years ago that Pietersen often plays at his scintillating best when he feels wronged. And he did just that once more. His 149 at Headingley was one of the great innings played for England in the modern era. When it is a case of "KP against the world", he is capable of almost anything.
Is there any way, I wonder, that Pietersen can access that strand of his personality - the resilient individualism and epic self-belief that defined his Headingley hundred - without actually orchestrating a situation where it really is "KP against the world"?
Can't he just imagine life is like that - that he has a giant score to settle with the world - while, in fact, behaving normally, just like everyone else?
I hope so. Because it seems a terrible curse if he must experience genuine turmoil to access his deepest talents.

We succumb at times to the lure of the self toward thinking we could extract ourselves intact from the world; there is an untempered narcissism in this. As if we could imagine any different world and then place ourselves, wholly, into it, or as if the world were such that it ought conform to a faulty notion: as if we were simply beings-in-th-world, isolatable from it, perhaps immutable in relation to its work. But this is untenable if not stupid. We do not exist 'in' the world, nor could we exist outside of it. Outside of the movement of the experiential manifold, which is differentiated and shaped by the contours of the world, there is no we, much less a you or I. We are of the world, consisting of a circuit of its movement, without significance or force or anything else except in virtue of our trajectory or path through it — and in fact there is nothing that moves or proceeds but only the movement or procession itself, shaped by the contours of the world at the same time as it wears at them. We are this movement. Any argument that treats an alienated subject, an I, you, we, or them, as something abstracted from the movement of the manifold fails, inevitably. When we consider the world, we must consider it dynamically; and efforts at creating a different set of contours of experience must take into account those that already exist. We must consider our trajectories carefully.
Ceux qui aspirent à la disparition des conflits dans la société ne savent pas qu'ils s'opposent à la vie. Le sort qu'ils réservent à la démocratie en est l'illustration criante. — André Bellon, Pas de démocratie sans conflit

PNC, Wells Fargo cyberattacks work of Iran, U.S. believes
- Paul Gough, Pittsburgh Business Times
The cyberattacks that have affected a number of U.S. banks, including PNC Financial Services Group, are being traced back to Iran, the New York Times reported.
PNC (NYSE:PNC) has been hit several times in the distributed denial of service attacks since late September, with customers reporting some slowness or inability to log on at several times, including earlier this month. PNC apologized to its customers in an email last week for security measures designed to thwart those attacks that might make it difficult to log on sometimes.
The Times said the federal government is fingering Iran in the sophisticated process that includes what it called hijacking data centers. It could be Iran's answer to the cyberattacks that have happened to that country in recent years. Other banks to be affected include Philadelphia market leader Wells Fargo (NYSE:WFC) and Bank of America (NYSE:BAC).

Chiefs Fans cheer injury to Matt Cassel; Eric Winston channels his inner Jim Mora
Winston's words courtesy of Arrowheadpride:
"But when somebody gets hurt, there are long lasting ramifications to the game we play, long lasting ramifications to the game we play. I've already kinda come to the understanding that I won't live as long because I play this game and that's OK, that's a choice I've made and a choice all of us have made.
"But when you cheer, when you cheer somebody getting knocked out, I don't care who it is, and it just so happened to be Matt Cassel -- it's sickening. It's 100 percent sickening. I've been in some rough times on some rough teams, I've never been more embarrassed in my life to play football than in that moment right there.
"I get emotional about it because these guys, they work their butts off. Matt Cassel hasn't done anything to you people, hasn't done anything to you people. Hasn't done anything to the media writers that kill him, hasn't done anything wrong to the people that come out here and cheer him. Hey, if he's not the best quarterback then he's not the best quarterback and that's OK. But he's a person. And he got knocked out in a game and we have 70,000 people cheering that he got knocked out?
... "But if you are one of those people, one of those people that were out there cheering or even smiled when he got knocked out, I just want to let you know, and I want everybody to know that I think it's sickening and disgusting. We are not gladiators and this is not the Roman Coliseum. This is a game."

Had on tap tonight at The Hanger Room.
Poured through a randall into my Fulton pint glass. Basically a randall is a vessel. In the vessel was fresh Peace whole coffee beans with fresh whole bean vanilla. The beer passes through each then pours into your glass.
I will start my review by saying that I have heard of this beer before I have ever tried it. Reviews were epic type shit(word of mouth) , Paul Bunyon and Babe The Blue Ox. Needless to say I was excited to get my snicker bar type piano fingers around it.
Holy Lord. Accusations were true. Deep dark jet black. Three fingers of mocha head. Two feet away I can smell the coffee. Pretty much ridiculous. Upon taste the brew is slightly hop forward. That boils down to un-noticeable. Rich coffee notes and vanilla unfold. It smells epic. In the mouth the rich coffee and vanilla are prevalent but they also give way to chocolate and roast. Not heavily but certainly noticeable.
It is rarely I am wowed in a beer. All I can say is holy fuck this is good.

Appearance: Black, good head, good lacing.
Smell: Big chocolate smell, some coffee.
Taste: Big sweet chocolate and coffee from start to finish. I like big stouts on the sweet side, and this really hits the spot.
Mouthfeel: Substantial, pretty thick.
Drinkability: Very tasty, only on tap right now.
Tried this at the Hanger Room in Willernie, and was really wowed by the beer. Chocolatey, coffee, not too sweet and not too bitter. Really impressed by this one.

Reviewed from notes taken at the Minneapolis Republic. Poured from the tap into a pint glass on 6/25/11.
Pours as dark as night with 2 fingers of mocha colored head that dissipates leaving little lacing but a thick oily resin on the glass. Just a wonderful presentation.
Smell is tons of roasted malt and chocolate as well as an awesome mix of coffee. As it warms this beer gets better and better, with tons of chocolate goodness. Great smell as well.
Taste is the same as the smell and just as great. Tons of sweet roasted malt and chocolate as well as some coffee flavors. Wow what can I say just awesome.
Mouthfeel is light to moderate... It looks smells and tastes like an Imperial stout and it even leaves a nice choco/coffee resin on the pallet but it has a very nice carbonation and is so lite as far as weight and density. It really makes you want to drink more and is refreshing even though you are getting slammed with taste. Top notch.
Overall this is one of the best Imperial Stout's that I have ever had. In fact it is now my favorite stout. Yes even more so then Darkness, Dark Lord, or Abyss and I absolutely love Abyss. I can't wait until Fulton starts bottling their beers. This is an absolutely must have if you are ever in the Minneapolis/Saint Paul area.

No known freshness dating.
A= Pours a very very thick looking black color with a thin skin of head slowly rising out of it. At first it looked flat but the head does slowly rise out with little retention and lacing on the glass.
S= The smell is a wonderful nutty sort of roastyness to it. Coffee and a nice chocolatey sweetness to it. It has a sort of milk chocolate type aroma to it I think. There is an indescribale softness to it.
T= The taste is again wonderful. All the flavors in the nose come through as well as the sort of softness that I can't really describe. The roast is the most dominate flavor in the taste and the milk chocolate I got from the nose is still there. A really amazing beer.
M= Well done. Not nearly as flat as I expected.
O= From a brewery that I was a little dissapointed with at first this beer is a home run. This is just plain tasty. It's not the big over the top type imperial stouts that make the BA Top 100 but it's a well done beer which is Fulton's niche I think. This baby is good. The best from them I've had so far I would say. I was lucky enough to try a mint chocolate chip version of this at one point and it was mind blowing so I had high expectations. This meets those expectations. This actually may be one of my new favorite beers.

Thanks so much to Audiophile for sending me this local goodie. I have to start this review with: OH MY GOD! This beer is amazing. I've drank a lot of renowned stouts lately, and this one is in my top 3.
A: Dark, completely opaque, but not quite oil-black. Nice tan coffee head, and beautiful lacing.
S: Dark fruit. Raisins and plums. But not too sickly sweet, but very sweet. Quite different smelling then tasting.
T: Oh man, this one is special. It follows the nose - dark fruits. Raisins and plums. However, you get that sweet coffee bite at the end of the sip, and chocolate and toasted malts. The 9.5% ABV is nearly invisible in this stout. Once again, this beer is a treat. The after taste is almost purely roasted malt. I need Audiophile to send me more!
M: This is by far the best mouth feel of any stout that I've ever had. I have drank BCBS, BCBCS, Dark Lord '10, Lil' B, and Williamsburg Cafe Royale in the past month. This one is sweeter than saccharine (not literally). Medium feel, not too heavy, not too light, just perfect. It's still full, and leaves a little 'thickness' in your mouth a few minutes after a sip. Once again, near impeccable.
O: This one is a rare one. Find anyone you know in Minnesota and beg them to search all their bottle shops for this. I'm not quite sure why I've never heard of it before, I asked Audiophile to find me a rare, local stout, and he couldn't have done any better. This beer deserves to be a hit. Out of the 5 aforementioned stouts, this one easily takes second behind BCBCS. If anything deserves to be named worthy adversary, it is this.

On tap at The Republic in Minneapolis, MN. Served in a 12 oz. standard shaker pint glass.
Appearance: Pretty much pitch black with only a slight bit of brown color shining through the edges of the glass. About a finger of tan head that recedes into a thin patchy layer. A fairly good amount of lacing around the glass.
Smell: A fairly sweet aroma of dark roasted malts with hints of caramel, chocolate, molasses, anise, and a little coffee. Also a light hint of dark fruit in the background. Hops are very faint. Smells pretty roasty and fairly strong.
Taste: A pretty big roasty and sweet taste of dark malts with some caramel and big notes of chocolate and molasses. Also some anise, coffee, and a little dark fruit. Light taste of earthy hops in the background provides some balance to the sweetness. Very good.
Mouthfeel: Body is on the heavier side but still goes down fairly easy. Carbonation is moderate. Creamy and moderately sticky and syrupy. No real alcohol heat felt.
Overall: A very good take on an imperial stout. Bold taste and fairly easy to drink for such a big beer.

Poured from 750 mL bottle into snifter.
A: Pours an opaque black (no light comes through with backlighting) with 1/2 inch dark mocha head that quickly recedes. (4.5)
S: Dark roasted caramel malt, chocolate malt, fig and other dark dried fruit, and a whiff of grassy hops. (4)
T: Dark bitter chocolate, dark roasted caramel malt, spicy rye, toasted grains, and grassy hops. Excellent balance and solid complexity. Dark dried fruit emerges with warming. (4.5)
M: Medium-heavy feel and full-bodied. Starts bittersweet and fairly smooth, then shifts and finishes dry and bitter. Slightly sticky sweet feel. (4)
D: Not as in-your-face as a lot of RISs out there...which in my book is a good thing. The ABV is a bit restrained 9.5% which avoids the overpowering boozy blast that can occur. A very solid brew...definitely recommended. (4.5)
A: Poured on-tap into tulip. Pours an opaque black with a thin dark mocha head that quickly recedes.
S: Amazing mix of smooth dark chocolate, bourbon, charred wood, and toasted grains. Hint of dark caramel malt and grassy hops.
T: Dark bitter chocolate, rye whiskey, charred wood, spicy hops, and a hint of vanilla. Dark dried fruit emerges with warming.
M: Medium-heavy feel. Smooth with a bit of creamy and bitter aspects. Dry and moderately bitter finish. Sticky sweet feel.
D: Excellent drinkability especially for style. The ABV of 9.5% hits the sweet spot. Good complexity and excellent balance. Highly recommended...seek it out!

But do we really need an excuse to take an obsessive look at local coffee? Of course not. If we have it our way, you'll never have to set foot in a Dunkin Donuts again.

but what were really scars from a thousand summer suns
as she ran about outside,
climbing trees and treading rivers,
pretending to be an american bomber
in the midst of WWII.
she kept crimson stains on pearl pink lips,
which always had the habit of getting on her teeth
because she put on make-up after dressing in her car
and ordering coffee in every way she hated it
as she drove to the record store three times a day,
ignoring her job downtown.

i took count on the first night i stepped into that whirl-wind room,
though her lopsided up-dos of messy blonde hair revealed just how much her fingers
never broke the dust.

that showed each and every vein and bone,
the type of hands made for tearing boys like me apart.

These thoughts of fear and regret.
They swarm all around me,
Trapping me inside my own head.
Pretty soon, I am suffocating,

My heart beat races,
As does the thoughts that pick up the pace.
Of sending me memories I've kept and buried so long inside.
They've come back to haunt me tonight.
And as soon as it came,
It was gone,
They disappear,
Leaving me here.

Is now,
The sound of silenceThe sound of silence,
Is so deafening,
That it makes my ears ring,
With the cacophony of my own insanity.
Being afraid to speakThe unpleasantries of past events
Were driven by the voices of contempt
Leaving me breathless
To that effect, I was left senseless
And when I laid under the covers
As I tried to warm myself from the cold stares
I shiver, as my skin turned white
By the solace of silence
But, as I overcame their sadness
I learned to embrace the cold
Until I was able to give warmth to others

Rod Stewart musical proves that some guys have all the luck
Updated 12:11pm Thursday 12th June 2014 in Theatre
ROD Stewart fans are celebrating this month as 'Tonight's the Night,' the smash hit musical comedy inspired by Rod's songs, is coming to The Bristol Hippodrome..
Set on the mean streets of Detroit and in the glamorous clubs of uptown LA, the show tells the story of Stu, a shy young man, so tongue tied that he cannot find the courage to declare his love to the girl of his dreams. How different he is to his hero, that legendary rock n' roll vagabond Rod Stewart! One night our hero strikes a deal with the Devil, trading his soul for Rod's. It seems like a good idea at the time but he's is about to find out the hard way that you can't find true love using another man's moves and that devil or no devil, there's only one Rod Stewart!
With a book by multi award-winning writer and comedian Ben Elton (We Will Rock You), Tonight's The Night features spectacular staging, a world class band, dazzling choreography and includes over 20 classic Rod Stewart hits like Tonight's the Night, Hot Legs, Baby Jane, Do Ya Think I'm Sexy, Maggie May, This Old Heart of Mine, I Don't Wanna Talk About It, Ooh La La, Some Guys Have All the Luck, Forever Young, Sailing and many more.
The all-singing, all-dancing feel-good show premiered in the West End in 2003 and went on to play sold-out theatres across the UK.
Rod Stewart said: "In the past, any ideas for musicals revolving around my songs just didn't work for me. It was only when we were approached to do 'Tonight's The Night' that the idea really took off. I'm absolutely thrilled that this great show is touring the UK again."
Tonight's the Night, the Rod Stewart Musical, is on at the Bristol Hippodrome from Monday, June 23 to Saturday, July 5.

France announce plans for new stadium
ESPN Staff
June 29, 2012
An artist's impression of the new stadium that will be situated 25km south of Paris © lerugbyadelavenir.fr
The French Rugby Federation (FFR) has announced plans to build a new 82,000-seater stadium in the Paris suburbs at an estimated cost of €600m (£484m).
The stadium, that will be situated in Evry Centre-Essonne, 25km south of Paris, will replace the Stade de France as the side's home ground and is set to be completed in 2017. The hi-tech facility, currently the site of a disused racecourse, will feature a retractable roof and removable pitch with the development also set hotels and shops.
The decision to initiate a move away from what has been their playing base for the last 14 years was prompted by the FFR's growing frustration at the constraints of the Stade de France where they must pay a reported €5m (£4m) per game in rental charges and also schedule matches around France's football fixtures and concerts that take precedence.
As a result, it is understood that the FFR make only €2m (£1.6m) for each 82,000 sell out while in comparison the Rugby Football Union bank a reported €6m (£4.8m) after each Twickenham clash.
Reflecting on the decision to opt for the Evry site ahead of that of Thiais-Orly, situated close to Paris' Orly Airport, FFR president Pierre Camou said: "It conforms to what we want. One of the most modern stadiums in the world: pitch, roof, multi-functional, with exceptional comfort levels for spectators."
Serge Blanco, who led the stadium project, said: "This Ris-Orangis site opens new horizons for our game in France. It will provide a new-generation stadium that will become a showcase for French rugby."
France's National Centre of Rugby and the FFR headquarters will remain at Marcoussis 20km west of Evry.

Well done video here from Samford showing what national signing day looks like at the FCS level.
Linebackers coach Ross Newton leads the video and tells viewers what you can expect on signing day from a recruiting coordinator's perspective.
"Someone told me a long time ago to worry about the ones you got, because if the guys you got are good enough, you don't have to worry about the rest of them." Newton explains at the end of the clip.

It's not a matter of "if", but "when" Shreveport's next water main will break, because many of those pipes date back to the early 1900's.
"There's only so much useful life out of something you bury," says Water & Sewage Director Barbara Featherston.
And with Old Man Winter already visiting the Ark-La-Tex, city crews will be kept busy as out-dated water mains struggle to fight the freeze.
Featherson says it generally takes several weeks of below freezing temperatures to cause a main to burst, meaning the ground's actually still too warm to be the culprit behind Thursday morning's break on Hearne Avenue.
That break left J.S. Clark Elementary School without water for a short time while crews worked to repair the pipe.
"We don't normally see issues with pipes breaking and things like that in the ground with these light temperatures."
Still, Featherston says the city tries to take a pro-active approach to prepping for the change in season.
"We make sure that we're stocked up on all the parts and pieces, crews are available, we're know that we're gonna be working a little overtime."
She says Shreveport sees anywhere from 3 to 10 water main breaks a day, and 250 repairs every month, numbers that aren't likely to decrease until the infrastructure is updated.
"We never get to the point where we have everything fixed all at once. We have some weeks where we'll get to everything that came in and maybe a couple of backlogs, and other weeks, we lose ground."
Featherston says the city is working to replace the old iron water main pipes with PVC material that's less likely to rust.
She adds that there are technologies that can rehab the pipes, but that it's very expensive, so it's easier and cheaper to install a new main.
She's also looking to add two more maintenance crews for water and sewage in the upcoming budget.

Mini review of the amazing Wii Fit: What's hot and what's not
Posted by Brier Dudley
A few thoughts on the Wii Fit, after several days testing Nintendo's summer blockbuster that goes on sale tomorrow.
The great:
1. It really does make exercise fun. It's a million times more fun than working out in a gym, unless you go there to see and be seen.
2. It's a great way to introduce fitness routines and goal-setting to kids. It automatically keeps track of how long individuals play and how they're progressing. Results are visible in a calendar, charts and the physique of your "Mii" avatar.
3. The balance board controller fulfills the Wii's mission of getting players up off the couch. With the Wii Remote, you can eventually figure out how to play while sitting down, by moving just your wrist. But you can't trick the board -- if you're not up and moving, you're not playing.
4. You're not stuck to the board the whole time. It's sensitive enough to pick up motions in the vicinity, so when you do the running games, you actually run in place a few feet away from the controller and it can still tell what you're doing. This is an incredible capability for game developers; imagine if you had to actually run and jump through the jungle in "Halo" or the city in "Grand Theft Auto."
5. Wii Fit's fun, simple and accessible interface will raise the bar for consumer health monitoring products and services that will be built around the online health record systems that Microsoft, Google and others are developing. Could it be the iPhone of online health systems? But Nintendo wasn't trying to be cool -- it set out to build a universally appealing fitness game, not something for jocks, kids, seniors, geeks or the inform. The message is about fun and self-improvement, not discipline and obligation.
What's less great:
1. I wish Wii Fit was a little more transparent about how it calculates your fitness. The system considers your age, weight and balance capabilities to calculate your body mass index and your "Wii Fit Age." In my house, the females all received Wii Fit Ages much older than their actual age. My "Wii Fit Age" was six years younger than my real age, even though the females are in better shape and I have the balance of a drunken giraffe.
2. Some of the games are a blast, others aren't as exciting. That's pretty subjective. I preferred ski jumping and tightrope walking to yoga, for instance. I haven't unlocked all the activities yet, but I wonder if Wii Fit will need more action activities to keep the attention of boys in particular.
3. The Wii Fit games that are great are too short and you don't have extended play options. When ski jumping, for instance, you make two jumps and your rank is based on the combined distance. Then you have to click through a few screens to try again. I want to immediately jump over and over.
4. Although the balance board is amazing, it still has quirks, just as the Wii Remote does sometimes. On the tightrope walking game, it seemed slow to make side-to-side adjustments but it may have some kind of speed limiter to make it playable.
5. I'm not a privacy fanatic, but I wish there was a little more reassurance that Nintendo will be careful with the personal, physical information about players that it receives. You have the option of password-protecting your profile, but I didn't see any way to opt-out of sharing your stats with Nintendo. I didn't dig through the fine print looking for privacy information. Hopefully, it will resist the temptation to do targeted advertising.
Despite the flaws, it seems like a must-have for Wii owners. For parents, it's worth the price to introduce the fitness lessons to their kids and to have an easy lightweight gym on hand for themselves. Gamers will probably want to check out the balance board and have one to play future games using its controls. Either way, Wii Fit is a great way to offset the guilt about inactivity that's the albatross of videogaming.
A final thought: The Wii Fit is a platform game in more ways than one.
We haven't heard much about follow-on sales yet, but I'll bet the $90 bundle with the software and platform/balance board will be just the start. You'll soon want to buy more levels of the fun games -- WiiWare network downloads, perhaps? -- and probably accessories like the sticky-bottom socks that Nintendo provided reviewers or the protective Wii Fit mats that I wrote about at CES.
