Poured from a can into a shaker pint, the beer is a deep, vibrant, amber-ruby coloring with a low profile, frothy, filmy, off-white head. Nose of rich, dark caramel and toffee, with a resiny backbone and some chocolate notes. Flavors of chocolate, caramel, and herb on the forward tongue, with a roasty and grassy follow-up. Smooth in mouth, and well balanced, with a slight lean towards the herbal side. Decent cling along the glass as you drink. Roasty, right, slightly bitter aftertaste, with a subtle skunky characteristic kicking around. Smooth, clean finish. Decent brew.

341 mL bottle from the LCBO; bottled Oct 17 2012 if I'm deciphering the code properly (K1712). The first time I tried this stuff was years ago, when I saw it on the sales floor of a TBS back during university - and yes, the only reasons I bought it were the pot leaf on the packaging and the impressively low price. Although I've had it more than a few times since then, I've never found the time to actually sit down and review it. Until now, anyway.
Pours a lovely clear mahogany-brown colour, topped with one finger of creamy, relatively dense, off-white head that recedes quickly over the next few minutes. Its only remnants are a patchy cap and narrow collar. Clean, relatively uninteresting aroma with notes of caramel/brown sugar, toasted nuts, honey and bready malts. Also some herbal notes - whether they're from hops or hemp, I can't be sure, but it gives the aroma some semblance of a second dimension.
Relatively neutral, clean, approachable flavour that I could see winning over adjunct lager fans. Although Buzz doesn't really come across as especially corny, something about the flavour profile really makes me believe that there is some sort of adjunct in here. Beyond that suspicion, it tastes mostly of bready malts, brown sugar, maybe some nuttiness, and faint herbal, floral hop notes rounding out the finish. Very straightforward, and probably leaning on the sweet side, but at least it isn't cloying. Light-bodied and watery, with high carbonation comparable to that of most macros. Easy to drink quickly, if nothing else.
Quaffability is this one's main strength - it tastes ok and goes down smooth, so it certainly has most AALs beat at their own game. At $6 for 4 bottles, it's a pretty good deal in Ontario, and I can guarantee you it tastes better than most of the mass-produced garbage in this price range. I assume that most of this brew's market consists of white college kids with scruffy dreadlocks and green/yellow/red clothing on, but even to those outside of this narrow demographic, this beer can stand on its own as a solid value-brand lager.
Final Grade: 3.33, a serviceable B-. Cool Brewing's Millennium Buzz is technically an 'herbed' beer, but it reminds me more of a quirky, high quality adjunct lager, or perhaps a mediocre amber. It drinks with all the crisp, bland smoothness of any mass-produced lager, but with the added hemp twist and caramel maltiness giving it an additional dimension. It's nothing special, and I doubt most BAs would consider this 4 pack anything more than a decent deal for stingy shoppers - but I still say it's worth at least one try.

341ml Bottle from the Ottawa LCBO for 2$
Appearance - Copper colour with an average size fizzy off-white coloured head. There's an average amount of carbonation and there isn't much lacing. The head lasted for around 3-4 minutes.
Smell - Malts, grassy notes, caramel
Taste & Mouth - There is a below average amount of carbonation and I can taste malts and a hint of chocolate. There is also some grassy notes and some caramel. It ends with a malty aftertaste with a bit of a herbal/hoppy lingering spiciness.
Overall - Much better than I expected. I thought this would be some kind of novelty beer. It's not groundbreaking by any means, but it has a nice drinkable flavour.

The head really disappears quickly on this dark amber beer. The carbonation is especially vigorous. Leaves a small amount of lacing.
Aroma holds some sweetness, also a fair bit of hops, slight citrus edge. Altogether not too shabby, profiles a lot of the herbed element of the beer.
Taste is definitely some bitter, grassy elements, not sure how well this works. Somewhat vegetal flavour along with the malt, with a bit of light spice thrown in. Finish is dry and pretty full.
The mouthfeel is sour, medium feel to it. I also find the yeasty feeling on the aftertaste.
I wouldn't buy this beer again, that simple. I'll freely admit to not having had any hemp beers before. This one certainly has a distinct flavour to it and isn't terrible, but I don't find this one holds together especially well.

From notes.
A - Strong carbonation, dark gold colour. Bright. One finger khaki head and an ok half finger of retention with no lace.
S - Sweet malt and breadiness. Corn and some possible sugar. No hemp, weed, or hops.
T - Grassy, sweet malt, caramel. Not really complex, but tasty enough.
M - Good carbonation, light to medium body with a slight grassy/sweet finish.
O/D - Hemp? Clearly a gimmick. I couldn't find it there anywhere really. An alright beer in its own right but not special. Good enough to tide you over on a hot day I spose.

Bottle: Poured a clear copper color ale with a nice foamy head with good retention and some lacing. Aroma of floral cereal notes with light dry hoppy notes. Taste is also a nice enough mix between some hoppy notes with clean floral cereal notes with light residual sweetness. Body is about average with good carbonation. Better then expected but nothing too write home about at the end of the day.

beer with a pot leaf in the logo...what not to like?
pours amber with thin off white head. lots of bubbles in the body. looks sparkling. head goes away quick.
a few swirls of the glass brings the nose to life in an otherwise weak aroma. bubble gum aroma. lots of fruity notes, berries, apples. not a boldly presented aroma but what comes through is quite nice.
tastes like a sour beer that gets stomped by malt and has some degree of bitterness also lingering around. the beer tastes messy. not sure what i'm supposed to get out of this.
its got sweet aftertaste which is borderline cloying and seems to linger and get worse.
different but not in a good way.
might not finish this one.

Nice colour. Pours a rusty, dark amber tone with a thick frothy head that leaves moderate lace and settles as a collar.
Very sweet, malty aroma. Rotting or overripe fruit tones. Very grape-like, almost like a wine. Develops a spicy brown sugar sweetness
Not much in the way of taste really. Has a real boozy overtone, like grain alcohol or something equally cheap. There is a woody note in there as well, like oak and a sweet, malted corn flavour. Very subdued and not that appealing.
Thin and watery. Almost no body whatsoever. leaves a yeasty, corn syrup feeling on the back of the tongue.
If you're looking for a cheap beer you can session while its cold, you could do worse. But this one just isn't for me. Too sweet with little balance or body.

He charged that "aggrossive forces" in the united States recently havetheir efforts to "wreck the summit conference, or at least prevent it from reaching agroements."
Although Khrushchev'sto President Elsenhower wore couched ln moderate terms, he went further in criticizing the President than at any time since his visit to the United States, tie remarked thatspeeches by American spokesmen wore1 omen"favorable outcome" at the summit and said thishas been "aggravated" by the "unfortunate fact that even the American President approved these speeches."

In addition to the primary effort to discredit the United States on tbe eve of the summit meeting, Khrushchev's speech probably was calculated to warn against any exaggeratedin.the Communist world rogarding the outcome of the Paris talks, which ho has been careful to portray as only the firsteries of such negotiations. Khrushchev's harsh criticism of the United States may also be Intended toase for blaming American "insincerity" should the talks break down.

probably views the summit meeting,which opens in Paris onay, notecisive confrontation with the West butew and important stagerotracted period of high-level negotiations. This outlook probably precludes any move tohowdown at the summit Itself orafter, prior to President Eisenhower's visit to the USSR ln June. The Soviet leader summed up this approach during his trip to France bying "hope that the meeting will ushereries of Important negotiations between theof the great powers, with the object of putting an end to the cold-war policy."
Moscow's general policy line during the pre-summithas reflected the moreposture adopted by hrushchev during his visit to the United States. Moscow has endeavored to appear responsive to Western views on the timingummit meeting with no fixed agenda. Except forin Its positionuclear test ban treaty,the Soviet Government's efforts toavorable pre-summit atmosphere have not gone so far as to presageconcessions on major East-West issues.
Germany and Berlin
Despite Khrushchev'sstatements assigning top priority to disarmament and his intention to negotiateissuesuclear test ban treaty, he probably regards the German and Berlin questions as the focal point of the summit. Over the past few months,has increasingly Invoked the threateparate East Gorman peace treaty to soften
Western resistanceeace treaty with both German states converting West Berlinree city. Moscow probably realizes that, on thesehange in the status quo would be of little advantage to the West, and believes thatare unlikely to befor tho USSR unless conducted under the threat of unilateral Soviet action.
At the same time, Moscow does not wish to detract from the general policy of detente or appear to be repudiating the Camp David agroement not toa time limit on Thus, the threat toeparate treaty has beenformulated andto create uncertainty as to the timing and circumstances of such action.
Against this background, Khrushchev's initial move at the summit on these Issues probably will be to reintroduce hisdemandseace treaty signed by both Germanand the establishmentree city in West Berlin.of this position, as Indicated by authoritative East German statements reportedlyat Moscow's direction, would probably Include an offer to draft two separate documents containing the same basicone of which would be signed by the Western powers with Bonn and the other by the bloc with East Germany.

Finally, Khrushchev may Indicate that the free-city status can be reached in stages, provided the final goal lsspelled out. Tho first stage might not go beyond the severance of all ties between the Federal Republic and West Berlin, with troop reductionsater date. Agreementimited first stage, however,
would probably be contingentlear commitment to discuss further stages at an early date.
Interim Berlin Agreement
After the maximum Soviet demands have beon put forward for the record, Khrushchevwill try to move onto the question of an Interim Berlin solution along the lines discussed at the Geneva foreign ministers' conference1 rko recently hinted thli
sharp propaganda crrxiclsm of alloged Western attempts toout the "positive results" of the foreign ministers'suggests that the USSR considers the Western proposal
for an interim solutionpen to negotiation.
Khrushchev may Introduce certain modifications to make the Soviet Interim-solutionmore palatable to the West. He may drop Sovieton formal East Germanin such an agreement and suggest that East Germany could be associated by means of separate commitments. He may Offer to extend the time limit on an interim agreement fromonths to two or three years, and he may refrain fromon linking an Interimto the creation ofan all-German committee. He can beto stress that an interim solution would not involve any change ln existing Westernarrangements.
Khrushchev would probably insist,in return,estern commitment to reduce troops ln West Berlin, possibly in phases. On the basic question of the status of Western rights at the expiration of such an/agreement, there is no evidence that the USSR would abandon itsto explicit confirmation of these rights.
PARTAND2 of 17
It Is unlikely thatexpects to reacheven on the main elements of an Interim Berlin solution In the few days available to the heads of government. He probably will concentrate his main efforts oneneral statement which Moscow could then represent as marking Western acceptance of thethat the Berlin situation is "abnormal" and shouldbe modified in theof ending the "occupationn West Berlin.
Khrushchev may even bo satisfied with an, agreement to resume high-level negotiations on Berlin with terms ofwhich the USSRtep toward an eventual change in West Berlin's status. He will be particularly vigilant to maintain Intact the provision of his Camp David agreement with Presidentthat new negotiations on Berlin should not be protracted indefinitely. Therefore, he may press forpecific dateubsequent summit meeting, or at least for another foreign ministers' conference.
Often- in the- past, when the Soviet leaders have wanted to Impress world opinionheir peaceful and constructive purposes, they have turned to the disarmament problem. Since Khrushchev's speech to the UN, Moscow's main effort has been to focus on disarmament as the central theme of its peaceful coexistence campaign' and toa convincing case that the USSR is prepared to move toward total disarmament.
In six weeks of actualat the Genevaconference, howover, the bloc delegations have resisted Western efforts to discuss the
vital question of effectivecontrols. Thedelegation declined to spell out Its position, beyond the vague and general proposition enunciated by Khrushchev that the extent of control should be commensurato with the various stages of tho disarmament

Feeds Across The Atlantic Ocean
[Figge's daily distance is posted here.]
But we wanted to go behind the scenes and check out what was happening in the galley where Hajdu worked her magic on a daily basis.
Daily News of Open Water Swimming: How many meals did you plan for over the course of the voyage?
Sara Hajdu: Usually I plan one meal per day - dinner. Jennifer always eats pasta or potato with parmesan cheese and olive oil for breakfast. Until she ends the swim for the day, she does not eat, only drinking every 45 minutes. I try to cook every dinner to have some leftovers for next day's lunch for the crew. But on this trip, nothing was usually left over so I prepared a light lunch, healthy-filling soup with homemade bread for the crew. For the whole trip, I put together a menu for 5 weeks in order to play it on the safe side. Each week, we had twice chicken, twice meat, twice pasta and one time fish.
As I am the chef also on board for our charters (www.xta-sea.com), it is not so hard for me to put a menu together. Although this swim is very different - to cook for 6 people for up to 5 weeks - what can I say? I have a big oceanic family. Also provisioning can be a problem in Cape Verde or other remote places. For this swim, I had to provision 99% of the food in Cape Town, South Africa for both the relocation part (31 days sailing from South Africa to Cape Verde) and the swim part from Cape Verde to Antigua too. Also provisioning a brand new boat means I had to buy really everything from spoons and plates to eggs, meat, toilette paper, etc. The hardest part is if I forget something there is no shop to go to, especially if the trip takes all together 60+ days because there is not much in Capo Verde to re-provision.
Daily News of Open Water Swimming: Do you prepare certain meals in advance?
Sara Hajdu: I don't prepare meals in advance. I have time because she is usually finishing around 3 pm with dinner at 6 pm. Also, I get some help from the crew peeling potatoes and we take turns of cleaning up the kitchen before we go to sleep. Anyway it is constant cleaning for me on the boat, so it is not much to clean up at the evenings.
Daily News of Open Water Swimming: Do you prepare a certain rotation of special meals?
Sara Hajdu: My motto is 'never repeat a meal' so I was cooking different meals every day and we never repeated a single one. Not even on the Pacific swim which lasted 45 days. But also I like to try new recipes and I have a cooking blog in Hungarian with my sister (www.izextazis.blogspot.com). I post recipes and stories of all the places we sailed. My sister looks for the ingredients in my country (e.g chutney's or palm hearts) and cooks it herself to give advice of "how to do it and where to buy it". So I had some of those recipes to make on board and take nice pictures for the blog as I did not have time before to prepare them. We could enjoy even a nice ostrich steak as well as malva pudding with homemade banana ice cream (a South African recipe) together. Also I cook some Hungarian meals like gulash soup or chicken paprikas.
Daily News of Open Water Swimming: Can you give me an idea of a special meal that Jennifer really enjoys?
Sara Hajdu: I have to say her favorite meal was still the Hungarian bean soup, although she loved all meals. I know her by now very well, I know what she likes and dislikes, so it is not so hard to please her. But you should ask her about her favorite meal.
Daily News of Open Water Swimming: What are the key ingredients for your breakfast, lunch and dinner plans?
Sara Hajdu: The key ingredients of her breakfast is the pasta or potato and lots of parmesan cheese. On her previous swims, she had a nutrition bar also, but on this swim she switched the bar for two potatoes or more pasta instead. I don't blame her - nutrition bars are not so yummy for 30-some days, every day. When she finishes the swim, I always serve some snacks - popcorn, hummus dip, chips or crackers with some dip on it. It is weird, but after so many hours in the ocean she still craves salty snacks. For dinner, it is mostly meat with different sides and lots of it. Protein and carbs are very, very important for a person who burns that much calories each day, every day for more than a month. For us, the crew, we just simply gain a few pounds each swim because there are delicious desserts twice a week also.
Daily News of Open Water Swimming: Do you make any really special or unique?
Sara Hajdu: This trip was full with very special or unique meals as I was planning to try out a lot of recipes. But also I cooked the big-time favorites: breaded chicken with fries, gulash soup and the Hungarian pancakes. I would say the most unique was the ostrich kebab. I don't think I have ever heard about anyone who was having ostrich in the middle of the ocean. Also I had a nice "surprise" sauce for a freshly caught tuna made of coconut cream, curry, mango chutney, tomato and onion.
Daily News of Open Water Swimming: Please explain the importance of food and food preparation on such a long trip.
Sara Hajdu: As I mentioned before, food is very important to help to get back the "lost" calories, but we follow our crew motto: "we are not here to suffer"! So instead of having nutrition bars or prepacked food, you can have the same calories in a delicious meal. This needs a lot of preparation (meaning thinking) before each trip. I start to put together my shopping list months before, but still I always freak out one or two days before we start the swim. Do I have everything?!? Also, I have to be prepared for technical problems on the boat. What if my freezer breaks down with all the frozen stuff and we still have two weeks to go? So I have to have backup food plan: cans. My shopping list was 12 pages this time.
Also the dinner on the boat is our "together-time" when all of us are able to sit down at the table and chat, eat good and have some wine, every day, like a true family. It was a very long trip, but very successful. She beat her record and swam every day. We saw a humpback whale only a few meters away from the boat dancing for us and a marlin trying to catch the tunas hiding under the boat, so it was the most amazing crossing up to now.

2014 Global Open Water Swimming Conference
Courtesy of WOWSA, Huntington Beach, California.
The Global Open Water Swimming Conference is a conference on the sport of open water swimming, marathon swimming and swimming during triathlons and multi-sport endurance events.
The conference which has been attended by enthusiasts and luminaries from 6 continents, is devoted to providing information about the latest trends, race tactics, training techniques, equipment, psychological preparation, race organization and safety practices used in the sports of open water swimming, marathon swimming and triathlons.
The conference's mission is to provide opportunities to listen and meet many of the world's most foremost experts in open water swimming, and to meet and discuss the sport among swimmers, coaches, administrators, event organizers, sponsors, vendors, officials, escort pilots, and volunteers from kayakers to safety personnel.
Dozens of presentations at the 2014 Conference at the Mount Stuart House cover numerous aspects of the vast and growing world of open water swimming where attendees can learn and share the latest trends, race tactics, training modalities, swimming techniques, equipment, race organization, logistics, operations, and safety practices for open water swimming as a solo swimmer, competitive athlete, fitness swimmer, masters swimmer, triathlete, multi-sport athlete, administrator, race promoter, sponsor or referee.
The conference was first held in Long Beach, California as part of the 2010 USA Swimming National Open Water Swimming Championships. It has since been held on the Queen Mary in California, at Columbia University and the United Nations in New York City, and in Cork, Ireland. This year in September, it comes to another iconic location, the Mount Stuart House on the Isle of Bute in Scotland.
"The Global Open Water Swimming Conference was started due to the desire and need for athletes, coaches, referees, administrators, race directors, promoters and sponsors from around the world to share, collect and learn information about the growing sports of open water swimming, marathon swimming and triathlons," said founder Steven Munatones. "Other swimming conferences usually offering nothing on open water swimming or perhaps a speech or two, but we thought open water swimming deserves its own global conference. It is great that the community shares its information via the online social network, but there is nothing like meeting other open water swimming enthusiasts face-to-face and talking about the sport from morning to night."
Speakers at the conference include English Channel swimmers, ice swimmers, record holders, renowned coaches, world champions, professional marathon swimmers, renowned race directors, officials and administrators from the Africa, Americas, Asia, Europe and Oceania.
"Because the audience is passionate and educated about the sport and its finest practitioners, the Global Open Water Swimming Conference is also the location of the induction ceremonies for the International Marathon Swimming Hall of Fame and the annual WOWSA Awards that recognize the World Open Water Swimming Man of the Year, the World Open Water Swimming Woman of the Year, the World Open Water Swimming Performance of the Year, and the World Open Water Swimming Offering of the Year. Special Lifetime Achievement Awards are also occasionally presented to individuals who have made significant contributions to the sport over their career."

2014 Open Water Swimming Almanac
An Almanac for Open Water SwimmingAn almanac is essentially a body of knowledge which is so complete that it enables people in different fields to make predictions about the future of their respective industries.
This, for example, was the purpose of the traditional farmers almanacs. It enabled farmers to determine as accurately as possible which crops to plant for the greatest harvests in a given year.
But the farmers almanac was just one example among many.
There are, of course, many different kinds of almanacs.
In fact, there is even one for open water swimming...
Preview the Open Water Swimming Almanac:
The trends are very clear.
The tide is rising for open water swimming.

The bars near the University of Virginia were packed on graduation day, seniors in billowing black gowns drinking away their final few hours before entering the real world. It was 7 a.m.
Waiters and bartenders, many of whom had worked until the Saturday night shift ended a few hours earlier, shuttled pitchers of Bloody Marys, mimosas and manmosas (beer, vodka and orange juice) and poured round after round of shots: cinnamon fireballs, Southern Comfort with lime, and straight tequila.
"Sweet Caroline" blared as sorority sisters in flip-flops danced and sipped mixed drinks at the Virginian. At the Biltmore, the bouncer waved in anyone wearing commencement garb. The Pigeon Hole put out a chalkboard sign that originally read "Graduate in style!" but someone had crossed out "in style" and written "under the influence!"
At Trinity Irish Pub, students crammed onto a balcony that provided the perfect spot to look for friends and snap photos. Below, dozens more gathered on a patio, drinking on who-knows-whose bill.
"Our tab is already $400!" one student excitedly announced from atop a black metal chair at about 8:20 a.m., with another solid hour left before they were due at the ceremony. One of his friends smirked: "It's not $500 yet?"
A 21-year-old double-major wearing a wrinkled blue button-down under his black gown defended this scene as he drank a mimosa from a plastic cup. Soon his other hand was filled with a cheap shot of vodka, bringing him to at least half a dozen drinks in less than two hours - not that he was counting.
"All of us have jobs. All of us have real majors. None of us got majors like psychology," he said. "This is out of character, even for us. We are getting it out of our systems now, and then we will go into the real world."
But, would his parents approve of him stumbling through this symbolic day?
"I told my parents what I was doing, and they were like, 'YOLO,' " he said with a laugh. He paused before seriously requesting that his name and identifying characteristics not appear in any article a future employer might read.
"YOLO" - you only live once - is often uttered by college students as they shrug and do something they normally wouldn't do, such as drinking until they black out, experimenting with drugs or trying a new sexual experience.
This fall's freshmen likely will find that the higher education tradition of excessive alcohol consumption is alive and well, but there are new variables: Energy drink mixers keep students awake and drinking longer. A historically high number of students legally take prescribed antidepressants and other psychiatric drugs, which can be dangerous when mixed with booze.
Today's college students, who were mostly born in the early 1990s, have cellphone cameras and social media accounts that allow for the sharing of every embarrassing turn of a disastrous night. That can lead to a painful tarnishing of reputations or the celebration of reckless behavior. And news of the latest drinking trends spreads quickly on the Web. Those trends have colored perceptions of college students, but are they that much wilder than their parents were?
The scholarly standard for "too much" was long ago set at five drinks or more at least once in a two-week period. For three decades, that national binge drinking rate has hovered around 40 percent.
But college officials - the ones tasked with making sure students don't hurt themselves or others - aren't necessarily worried about the bulk of those students. They are concerned about the students who go out every night of the week or have dozens of drinks each month, those who occasionally drink heavily but with a lower tolerance. They worry about the black-out drunks. The violent drunks. Those who turn to alcohol and drugs instead of seeking counseling.
Alcohol is a common theme in nearly all student problems, including faltering grades, fights, injuries, suicide attempts, mental-health issues and sexual assaults. A serious drinking problem could go undiagnosed for years in an environment where heavy drinking is considered the norm. These students face a more difficult path to graduation, as they are more likely to skip class, get in trouble or not study. And if they do graduate, the transition to a working world with set hours can be difficult.
"A lot of students do grow out of it," said Susan Bruce, director of the U-Va. Center for Alcohol and Substance Education, "but there's really no way to predict which ones will and which ones won't."
U-Va. has tracked student drinking rates since the 1960s. The heaviest drinking was back in the 1970s and '80s, when parents of today's students would have been enrolled, Bruce said. The rate is now in line with national averages.
U-Va. has seen subtle growth at the two poles: students who don't or hardly drink, and those who are extreme drinkers. This trend is playing out at other universities, prompting a shift in educational messaging.
Colleges have been under pressure to keep students safe since the early 1980s, when the national drinking age was increased to 21, making it illegal for half of the undergraduate population to drink. Many schools shut down campus pubs and forbid alcohol in dorms and sorority and fraternity houses.
Lawsuits and deaths pushed some schools to crack down. Students are now routinely patrolled, busted and punished by local police, campus police, "party patrol" crews that roam student neighborhoods, school judicial boards and even parents, who at a growing number of schools are now contacted when their child has any alcohol infraction. As a result, parties moved off campus.
In 2008, 130 college presidents voiced support for the Amethyst Initiative, which stated that a legal drinking age of 21 has created "a culture of dangerous, clandestine 'binge-drinking' - often conducted off-campus."
In recent years, some administrators have adopted this attitude: If students are going to drink, let them do it safely. More schools have amnesty policies for students who seek help for a friend who might have alcohol poisoning. Some schools have reopened campus pubs, serve wine in the dining halls or allow over-21 students to drink in on-campus apartments.
At U-Va., it has been difficult for several waves of administrators to chip away at drinking traditions. At the annual Foxfield horse races, students start drinking in the morning and go all day. At the historic Lawn, students get bombed, strip and streak naked. And there's the "fourth-year fifth," when some fourth-year students try to finish a fifth before kickoff at the final home football game. In 1997, a senior honors student died after drinking heavily and falling down stairs.
"This is a very dangerous decision," U-Va. President Teresa Sullivan wrote in a letter to students. "A fifth of 80-proof liquor (17 drinks) can kill you."
U-Va. alcohol educators have suggested ways to make the tradition safer, such as splitting a bottle between friends, subbing in wine or spreading the drinking across a weekend. But the tradition continues.
It doesn't help that U-Va. is frequently named one of the top party schools in the nation. Incoming students arrive with the notion that everyone drinks heavily, and some older students feel a responsibility to keep the reputation going.
At a formal awards ceremony during graduation weekend, a top senior leader gave this shout-out: "Thank you, Forbes, ABC, Buzzfeed, Playboy and the other publications that spotlighted our school's achievements in your rankings." He was interrupted by laughter and applause, then continued: "You reassured us that we're the best school in the world."

The Swiss Alps region
Zinal is a charming village in an idyllic setting, well away from the crowds, nestled high in the the southern Valais mountains in the French-speaking region of Switzerland. Zinal is the gateway to the 'Imperial Crown': four permanently snow covered 4000m peaks with the Matterhorn sitting just behind them.
Zinal offers everything you could want from an alpine resort, without the crowds and expensive shops and restaurants of larger resorts such as neighbouring Zermatt and Verbier.
Zinal is the perfect alpine village for a mountain holiday. It is small enough that everything is within a short walk, but nonetheless has plenty of facilities. Here is a map of the village and an aerial photo. There are at least six restaurants and three bars, along with two supermarkets, a bakery, two mountain gear / ski / snowboard hire shops, post office, newsagent, cash machine and a tourist information and mountain guide office. There is also a regular bus service throughout the valley.
Zinal is a beautiful place to simply relax, but for non-flyers, non-skiers, or those wishing to try something else, there are plenty of activities available on the doorstep or within the valley.
In summer, Zinal is also a perfect base for Mountain Biking, Rock Climbing, Mountaineering and Walking. There are many mountain huts in the area where you can stay overnight, allowing extended trips into the high mountains. In Zinal there are also picnic/bbq sites, a wildlife observation point, tennis courts, an indoor swimming pool, mini golf, a Tyrollean zip wire, and tandem paragliding or hang gliding flights. In the valley there is also an outdoor swimming pool, bungee jumping, canyoning, via ferrata, fishing and day trips to alpine lakes and glaciers. A gym, sauna, massage and beauty treatments are also available.
The winter scenery here is spectacular. Zinal is surrounded by four 4000m peaks and behind them lies the Matterhorn. Ninety percent of the piste skiing lies between 2000m and 3000m and is mostly north-east facing, so good snow is guaranteed. There are 120 kms of pistes including those at nearby Grimentz, which is connected by a black run or by a 10 minute free bus ride. There are excellent beginner slopes, an extensive free ride area and huge amounts of off-piste for the experts. Have a look at the piste map.
The cable car takes you up 800 metres to 2440 metres in under 10 minutes, so you can be skiing 20 minutes after leaving the apartment.
The are three other resorts in the valley covered by the same lift pass and accessible by bus from Zinal – St Luc, Chandolin and Vercorin - offering a variety of skiing and snowboarding conditions and doubling the pisted runs to 225 kms. St Luc and Chandolin are more south-west facing so are a sunnier alternative in December and January.
In winter there is also cross country skiing, sledging, and snow shoeing, including a snow shoeing trip to the glacier. There is ice skating on a natural ice rink, introductory ice climbing courses, and tandem paragliding or hang gliding flights. There is also the indoor swimming pool and a gym, sauna, massage and beauty treatments are available.

"Close to skiing perfection"
The apartment itself was great for our family of four, as we used only the upstairs, including a loft occupied by my son. Wifi, fireplace, TV, videos, well-stocked kitchen, and spectacular views make … More

"Excellent apartment in a very nice resort"
Our extended family of 8 adults spent the New Year's week in Zinal. The apartment was perfect for our group - enough space and well designed. It is also very well situated, close to the town centre, but off any noisy streets. It is within 200 m of the ski-lift and even closer to the home-run's end-point. The evenings were spent playing games around the cosy fire-place. A big advantage is the fact that the TV room is separate from the living area. The snow conditions and weather were good and the pistes were well-prepared. The drag-lifts were a bit of a challenge for some of the snowboarders in the group, but overall a very nice ski area for both skiers and snowboarders.

Cheap Lip Smacker. Double Dip this week. One is monthly deal and one is for this week. Buy $10 get 5 UP rewards Bonne Bell Jesse Girl and buy $10 get 4 UP rewards Bonne Bell Cosmetics. plus you can use a coupon I found on their FB. $1/2.
The Dial soap is printing 2/ $1 Up rewards instead of 1, I think only in some. I bought 3 pack Dial NutriSkin white peach.
Great deals! Thanks for sharing!
so are you saying that if I buy $10 in products I will get a 5 and a 4 +up reward?
MONEYMAKER on DIAL FOAMING HAND SOAP also this Week!!!
***A Double Dip Deal***
Buy Two Dial Foaming Hand Soap *Must Be White Tea Kind* @ 2/$4 = $4.00
Use $0.35/1 Dial Liquid or Foaming Hand Soap or Bar, 3 ct or larger, limit of 4 like coupons in same shopping trip from RP 10/7 (exp11/3) = -$0.70
Pay $3.30 +Tax, Receive $4.00 +Up Reward
**Get $2.00 +Up Reward from Weekly Deal & Get $2.00 +Up Reward from a Monthly Deal**
***Look for the Monthly Tag Under the Weekly Ad Tag on Product***
(FOR EXAMPLE Just like the Libman Deal on the Angle Broom/Tornado Mop that recently happened)
A MONEYMAKER of $0.70!!!
Happy Buying!!!
Wow! Thanks for sharing!
what is the monthly limit for the soap?
I think it is limit 3 only
Limit is 4. Bought 4 today and got back 8 $1RR.
I did this and the Lip Smackers. Both are Double Dipping. Heard through the other blog sites that only the White Tea Foaming Hand Soap is working. Those who got the regular Liquid soap did not. Also, some of the Character Lip Smackers in the multi packs are not working either. I stuck to the single ones and those worked fine.
the family pack bags of ricolas are a great deal they are 2/8 & there was a $1 off one ricola family bag coupon in the 9/30 SS. so you pay $6 and get back $5 making each bag $0.50!
isn't the glow in the dark nail polish offer back again? or will they not print since we did the offer 2 weeks ago?
Its a different deal.
This time its when you buy $10 worth not just two.
Agreed I'm still hoping my riteaid stocks back up on its got2be oilicious so i can roll over my uprewards to the week after this crappy one!
Slow week. All I bought today (early SoCal sale) was 6 Mentos, 4 Nexxus shampoos (moneymaker after VV and MQ's), and 4 Suave lotions (cheap after MQ's).
What is the deal for the Nexxus?
$10 +up wyb $20. There's a $3 printable and $2 VV coupon.
Can you post your scenario? I can't figure out how it's a moneymaker.
I love Rite Aid. I go first thing in the morning when the sale starts and then end up going back a few hours later because another deal comes up. Once I got confimation of the double dip with Dial and Lip smackers I was out the door to do those deals lol. I hope more deals come up throughout the week because it's turning out to not be a slow week afterall.
What's the double dip with dial?
**Nevermind…just read about it below.**

Guest Blog: The Little Fireface Project by Denise Spaan - part two
|Eulidia (1)
The Chilean woodstar is a small hummingbird. It has iridescent olive-green plumage and white underparts (2). Males are distinguished by their violet-red throat patch and both sexes possess short, black bills (2).
This bird is currently restricted to the extreme northern reaches of Chile. It is thought to be confined to just two valleys that contain suitable habitat (2).
Found in scrub in desert river valleys up to 750 metres above sea level (2).
The highly restricted range of the Chilean woodstar represents a threat to its survival; the species is confined to just two valleys in northern Chile which are already heavily cultivated (2). Viable habitat for this species of hummingbird is therefore scarce.
Further research into the natural ecology of this species is urgently required in order to understand the nature of resources needed to sustain the population. Exports of hummingbirds from Peru and Chile are controlled (2) and this species is listed on Appendix II of the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species (CITES) (3).

Amateur with general, economy tools. Not an absolute beginner, but close!
Projects I have coming up:
1) Design and build a workbench with integrated tablesaw, radial arm saw mount, bench vise, and other elements. The plan is to design the bench so it can be disassembled and moved easily by one person (me). Design will be in Sketchup.
2) Design and build a workshop, with tool and parts storage. Only have vague ideas about this, so far.
3) Design and build computer room desks, shelving, etc.
4) Replace our thirty year-old wooden privacy fence. We have about 250' of fence that needs to be replaced.
5) Design and build a backyard storage shed.
6) Design and build backyard garden stuff.
7) Possibly finish out our basement, including flooring, stud walls, drywall, ceiling, electrical wiring & fixtures, and a half bath (toilet & sink) or maybe even including shower.
