3 editions published between 1998 and 2009 in English and held by 487 WorldCat member libraries worldwide
"A fascinating look at one of the greatest social maladies of our time: overconsumption and materialism. Hosted by National Public Radio's Scott Simon, the program explores both the comical and sobering aspects of our consumerism and its enormous impact on families, communities and the environment. With the help of historians and archival film, Affluenza reveals the forces that have dramatically transformed us from a nation that prizes thriftiness - with strong beliefs in 'plain living and high thinking' - into the ultimate consumer society"--Container
Culture jam : how to reverse America's suicidal consumer binge, and why we must by Kalle Lasn ( Book )
16 editions published between 1999 and 2005 in English and German and held by 466 WorldCat member libraries worldwide
"The Culture Jammers Network: We are a loose global network of artists, activists, writers, students, educators and entrepreneurs who want to launch the new social activist movement of the information age. Our aim is to topple existing power structures and forge a major shift in the way we will live in the twenty-first century. We believe culture jamming will become to our era what civil rights was to the '60s, what feminism was to the '70s, what environmental activism was to the '80s. It will alter the way we live and think. It will change the way information flows, the way institutions wield power, the way TV stations are run, the way the food, fashion, automobile, sports, music and culture industries set their agendas. Above all, it will change the way we interact with the mass media and the way meaning is produced in our society."--BOOK JACKET

Japanese woman ( Visual )
10 editions published between 1984 and 1996 in English and held by 92 WorldCat member libraries worldwide
The lifestyle of women in Japan remained virtually unchanged for centuries. Then came World War II and Gen. McArthur's "Grand Design"--A plan for democracy that revolutionized the status of Japanese women. And yet, in some ways, things have not changed very much. Interviews with modern Japanese women, WW II and postwar footage, and depictions of the typical Japanese woman's lifestyle show that the West may have introduced "women's liberation" to Japan, but the women of this country are still searching for ways to overcome old prejudices and to develop their own unique approach to the issue
Barnbrook Bible : the graphic design of Jonathan Barnbrook by Jonathan Barnbrook ( Book )
9 editions published between 2005 and 2010 in English and held by 88 WorldCat member libraries worldwide
"Five years in the making, this is the first monograph on Jonathan Barnbrook, one of the foremost, innovative and controversial graphic designers of his generation. Barnbrook Bible, an artwork in itself, meticulously combines text, image and a diversity of reference material to give a complete picture of his output, including previously unpublished work." "The book showcases Barnbrook's creativity in many disciplines from film to graphic and font design, for which he is most famous. He has a broad spectrum of clients, all of whom have sought his singular graphic vision. This book also features an in-depth analysis of his groundbreaking design for the Damien Hirst book I Want To Spend The Rest Of My Life, Everywhere, With Everyone, One To One, Always, Forever, Now, a unique collaboration between an artist and designer." "Also included in this book are his personal political projects, which demonstrate the passionate belief underlying all his work, that graphic design should be a catalyst for discussion and change."--BOOK JACKET

7 editions published between 1980 and 2008 in English and held by 33 WorldCat member libraries worldwide
"A film about parenting and education in Japan, Children of the Tribe brings out the striking contrasts between Japanese and Western family life and schooling, and illustrates the two seemingly contradictory elements of Japanese society: great competitiveness and great dependence on the group. Nuances of manner and behaviour are recorded in a way that will inspire thoughtful consideration of the collective experience."--Container

Riptide is the namesake climb for this cliff. It is enjoyable, probably deserving 1.5 stars. It follows the yellowish streak that goes up and diagonals left across the wall.
Riptide has two bolts, although it is possible to clip as many as 6 bolts and stay more or less on route. Also, bring gear. A pocket takes gear between the 1st and 2nd bolts, and other cracks are encountered which take small to medium gear.

Daley mobbed by fans in Greenhithe
Thousands of Tom Daly fans are being turned away from a book signing in Greenhithe in Kent because of excess numbers.
People began queueing outside Waterstone's at the Bluewater shopping centre at 1am this morning. One family has travelled from Cheshire to see him.
Even people who arrived up to four hours in advance have been told that they won't get in to see the diving star.
Organisers say they have been taken aback by the level of interest.

Do You Lick the Bowl After Baking?
Reader Survey
All right. Truth-telling time. What do you see when you look at this photo? A golden opportunity to sneak a sweet treat, or just another bowl to be washed? I grew up in a cookie-dough eating household, and beaters and spoons and mixing bowls were jealously-coveted prizes during baking season. But lately I've been trying to curb my bowl-licking habits; those little swipes of dough or batter can add up! What about you? Do you lick the bowl?
My Father's Make-Ahead Holiday Gift: Cheesecake, New York-Style
One of the greatest holiday traditions at my parents' house is the making of a half dozen cheesecakes. Guided by a top-secret recipe — from an original 1980 issue of The Kansas City Star that lists a recipe for New York Cheesecake, along with years of handwritten notes and variations — my father spends a full day in the kitchen pressing graham cracker crusts into springform pans, whipping up rich cream cheese filling, and fretting over water baths.
The result: one of the most decadent holiday treats and a beautiful gift for family members.
How To Make Crunchy Biscotti Cookies
Cooking Lessons from The Kitchn
Once an obscure Italian cookie from Prato, biscotti are now a common addition to many cookie plates. Classically, the cookie is made with pine nuts and almonds, but it's possible to find all sorts of additions these days, from bacon and cornmeal to drizzles of chocolate, both dark and white. Usually, I like to stick to a simple almond biscotti — unless it's the holidays when I show no shame in pulling out the pistachios and cranberries. Really, basic biscotti like our recipe here can be tweaked to suit whatever you fancy!
Homemade Gift Recipe: Maple Bourbon Caramel Sauce
Recipes from The Kitchn
Homemade Gift Recipe: Caramel Pecan Turtle Clusters
Recipes from The Kitchn
These cute little turtle clusters are so much more than meets the eye. It's hard to resist their addictive combination of buttery pecans and chewy homemade caramel nestled under a creamy milk chocolate shell. So hard to resist, in fact, that I recommend making a double batch if you have any hopes of sharing.
Looking For a Quick & Simple Homemade Gift? Make Chocolate Bark!
I'm in graduate school, which means that instead of spending December baking and listening to the Peanuts Christmas album the way I'd like to, I'm spending most of my free time in a lonely, silent room studying for finals. Yes, it's grim — but it doesn't mean I'll be skipping homemade-gift-making entirely. This year I've decided to make a few batches of chocolate bark to give away to friends and family. The process is quick, incredibly simple, yet never fails to impress.
If You Have Never Discovered How Easy Marshmallows Are, Now Is the Time
The night before Thanksgiving, I stayed at my brother's house in prep for the big day to come. After a long day of traveling we unwound with cocktails he mixed up in his home bar, but as I sleepily tottered off to bed, my sister-in-law disappeared to "make a few things for tomorrow." In the morning, it was as if the Christmas elves showed up early. Besides the various delicious deviled eggs and stuffed celery appetizers, she had made marshmallows! Boy, were they amazing.
A Homemade Gift Even I Can Make: Gingerbread Caramel Sauce
Baked goods and pretty things are not my forte in the kitchen. I'm good at stews, quiche, gooey pasta dishes and slow cooked pork that falls off the bone, all sorts of things that taste better than they look. I'm like this in every part of my life. But when I opened this month's Ladies Home Journal and saw an easy recipe for gingerbread caramel sauce, I thought, "This is brown and gooey. I can do this."

The Best Way to Clean a Sticky Pot After Making Caramels and Candies
Tips from The Kitchn
Chewy caramels and caramel sauce, we love. Cleaning the sticky pot shellacked with sugar residue after making those caramels, we love not so much. Here's a trick that will save you some time and save your poor arms a lot of scrubbing! (Hint: It involves laziness.)

Renault backs electric Formula E motor racing series
Organizers aim to boost the market for battery-powered vehicles
Renault is involved in the development of the Formula E racing cars, pictured.
LONDON (Reuters) -- Renault is backing a new series of electric car races in city centers around the world that will aim to boost the market for battery-powered vehicles and advance the technology behind them.
Formula E plans to stage its first race in Beijing next September and has signed up commercial partners including Renault and and tire manufacturer Michelin. The race series has the blessing of motor sport's FIA governing body,
The first Formula E cars that racers will drive will look similar to those used in Formula One -- hardly surprising given that F1 teams McLaren and Williams will supply the electronics and batteries respectively. Renault, which provides engines for F1 teams including the current champions Red Bull, will oversee the integration of the various systems, while Michelin supplies the tires.
Vincent Carre, Renault's head of electric vehicles, said he believed the new races were a timely showcase. "We need Formula E to explain to people that electric cars are for today not for tomorrow," Carre said, adding that more charging points should soon become available in major cities to help tempt motorists to buy the vehicles.
Renault and its alliance partner Nissan Motor Co. have invested heavily in electric cars, but Carlos Ghosn, who heads both automakers, told the Financial Times this week that sales were four or five years behind target. Sales of Renault's mass market EV, the Zoe subcompact hatchback, are expected to fall short of the company's target this year, Automotive News Europe reported October 29.
Formula E to test technologies
Formula E CEO Alejandro Agag said the excitement of cars racing at speeds of 220km/h (135mph) through the heart of cities including London, Miami and Los Angeles should help electric vehicles to shrug off an image problem and fine-tune their technologies.
"Electric cars are still perceived as slow, even as ugly or not cool, something that people don't want to buy for their day-to-day lives," said Agag, who is investing $100 million in the series with fellow Spaniard Enrique Banuelos. "We want Formula E to be the place where all those technologies are tested, where all those advances happen," Agag told a presentation in London.
Agag's ambitions were supported by a study from consultancy EY saying the races could help to boost electric vehicle sales by as much as 77 million units over the next 25 years -- a dramatic increase on current levels. U.S.-based market research firm ABI for instance estimates global electric car sales will reach 150,000 this year and grow 48 percent annually to reach 2.3 million in 2020.
Tesla Motors has already demonstrated the performance capabilities of electric propulsion with its 201km/h (125mph) Model S. However, the Formula E contest could also show the range limitations of current battery technology, since each vehicle can only be driven for 25 minutes before the driver will have to swap to another.
No rival to F1
Organizers see the 10-team series as complementary to F1, a glamorous money-spinner that attracts global television audiences of hundreds of millions. Agag said he expected the races to appeal more to families, helped by the absence of the ear-splitting engine noise that is part of the Formula One experience. Tickets will be cheaper too.
"We are Formula One fans so this isn't any kind of competition, but our price range is going to be lower."
Formula E has signed up Rupert Murdoch's Fox to broadcast its races in the United States and more than 80 other territories. Agag promised plenty of thrills and spills. "We expect quite a few bumps, tires are very hard, with very early braking, and slippery circuits unknown to the driver."
Formula One is also aiming to make itself greener and more relevant to mainstream car making, thanks to rule changes next season that will involve smaller engines being introduced and less fuel consumed during races.Contact Automotive News

The governor of New York, Andrew Cuomo, also held a press conference yesterday, and gave a warning that Sandy could end up costing his state $33 billion in economic damage, which could worsen the state's already-perilous fiscal situation.
NPR's Jim Zarroli reports.
JIM ZARROLI, BYLINE: Cuomo said the initial estimates are that the storm will cost the region $50 billion in lost economic activity and infrastructure damage. And he said two-thirds of that will be borne by New York.

Hundreds of thousands of customers in the Northeast still don't have power after being pounded by Sandy. New York Governor Andrew Cuomo is calling for an investigation, claiming some of the utilities were not prepared. A snow storm this week has made the situation worse. NPR's Jeff Brady reports from Brick Township on the New Jersey shore.

Harvey Hilbert enlisted in the Army in 1964. He was in the infantry, and in January 1966, he was sent to Vietnam to fight. Five months later, his unit was sent into the jungle. That was the last time he fought in Vietnam.
"It was coming on dusk, and we went into what's called a hot landing zone — means we were under fire," Hilbert told StoryCorps. "We jumped off the helicopters and took a position. And then the enemy stopped shooting."

The mercury hit 100 for ten consecutive days in some places last summer, and the drought of 2012 may be a preview of what climate change will bring: amber waves of extremely short corn.
Howard Audsley has been driving through Missouri for the past 30 years to assess the value of farmland. Barreling down the flat roads of Saline County on a recent day, he stopped his truck at a 160-acre tract of newly tilled black land. The land sold in February for $10,700 per acre, double what it would have gone for five years ago.
Heading out into the field, Audsley picked up a clod of the dirt that makes this pocket of land some of the priciest in the state.

Facial Plastic & Reconstructive Surgery
Ear Pinning (Otoplasty)
Ear surgery, or otoplasty, is a type of cosmetic plastic surgery procedure aimed at setting prominent ears closer to the head, or reducing the size of larger ears. However, there are other ear problems that can be helped with surgery. Surgeons can even build new ears for those who were born without them or who lost them through injury.
Who are candidates for ear pinning?
The operation is usually performed on children between the ages of 5 and 6; however, ear surgery for adults does occur.
To determine if ear pinning (otoplasty) is the right decision for you, please schedule an appointment with one of our facial plastic and reconstruction specialists.

Richard Linklater has been through an uneven rough patch for his last few films, some good, and a few more not so memorable, but it's probably not a surprise that a story set in his home state of Texas would also mark a brilliant return to form for the director. Teaming up with old pals Jack Black and Matthew McConaughey -- who both give great, atypical performances -- "Bernie" is a truth-is-stranger-than-fiction tale about a small town mortician who enters an earnest relationship with the wealthiest (and meanest) widow in town, but winds up murdering her. Taking a conventional docu-drama approach actually does wonders for the film. Mixing interviews with real life locals with a sardonic narrative that would do the Coens proud (comparisons to "Fargo" are apt), the movie is a concise, quick-moving breeze, anchored by the impressive, dialed down, yet distinctly fey, mannered and oddball pitch Black brings to the title character. The murder actually doesn't take place until halfway through the picture, allowing the audience to see why the townspeople were ready to forgive the otherwise generous, kind-hearted and sympathetic Bernie (and Black does a helluva job selling him). But it's the cocky swagger of McConaughey -- playing a small town lawyer with the ego of a big city prosecutor -- that provides the counterweight to the idea that the confessed murderer should be let go. Linklater manages a tricky balance as well, never mocking the real life characters, but letting the outrageousness and absurdity speak all on its own. The result is his best work in years, a singular and unique comedy, where the laughs are often big and pleasurable (read our review).
"Once Upon a Time in Anatolia"
After doing tiny, highly personal art films for a little over a decade, Nuri Bilge Ceylan threw a curveball with "Three Monkeys," an Andrei Tarkovsky-thriller goulash that retained his love for human behavior while combining a meatier plot and a lurking, uncertain anxiety. Though with "Once Upon a Time in Anatolia" he established a desire to make something a bit different, few could've surmised that his next flick would be a nearly three-hour ensemble epic, a slow-burn murder investigation that takes the police and the guilty party through the vast steppes of Anatolia. The collective slowly make their way through nowheresville to find and identify the victim's remains, eventually having to rest at a nearby village before returning home for the necessary paperwork. Within the long, arduous journey are rather brilliant character moments that are at times humorous and touching; always adding another intricate layer to a character's being. Despite no longer holding the cinematographer's position, Ceylan's photographic eye is still there: the film showcases some gorgeous environments bathed in natural light or, more astonishingly, entire sequences that are lit by just the headlights of the investigators' vehicles. This approach gives everything a very organic feel, one which only compliments a story that is basically about society's relationship with life and death. 'Anatolia' is a long one, but it's consistently rewarding throughout and eventually leads to one of the most poignant endings of this year (read our review).
"The Turin Horse"
Forlorn and harrowing, no, Bela Tarr's final offering wasn't very affable, and though his stuff never was, you'll find little of the enchantment or humor he displayed in past flicks such as "Werckmeister Harmonies" or "Satantango," respectively. Despite it all, no amount of misery keeps 'Turin' from being an astonishingly moving experience -- every meticulously crafted unbroken sequence (whether it be capturing a wind-battered woman gathering water from a near-exhausted well or an elderly man devouring a scalding potato with his fingers) captivates; the indelible black and white images attack along with a dedicated sound design to make every moment as impressionable as the last. Working with a barebones story -- a destitute family suffers greatly when their horse refuses meals and labor -- the Hungarian filmmaker is able to center in on the essence of poverty, bypassing condescending melodrama for the cold truth of hardship. The amount of power Tarr is able to channel through mundane actions such as cooking dinner or changing out of work clothes is astonishing -- who needs plot twists when the everyday routine is so affecting? But few, of course, are as skilled as this filmmaker, which makes "The Turin Horse" even sadder: that it is a curtain call for an extremely talented auteur. Thanks for the send off, Bela (read our review).
"Post Mortem"
Reviving the '70s American filmmaker mindset that lay dormant for years, Pablo Larrain's sophomore outing, which finally made it to U.S. shores earlier this year, was a much more restrained and outright weird offering compared to his violent, unruly debut "Tony Manero." Whereas the latter involved a protagonist murdering and discoing his life away while the Pinochet regime raged on, "Post Mortem" shoves its hero into the middle of the conflict, as he is forced to deal with the dead bodies by the very same military that is causing them. Because of this, the film is much more engaging on a traditional level than its predecessor, with the horrors of the dictatorship pushed to the forefront. Alfredo Castro stars as Mario, a morgue transcriber who discovers love just around the corner in Nancy, a burlesque dancer and neighbor who catches his eye, and soon the two begin seeing one another. Unfortunately their love is put on hold once the tanks start rolling in, as her ties to the Communist Youth of Chile cause her to go into hiding. Just like any chivalrous sweetheart would do, Mario harbors his main squeeze until it all blows over. Larrain often keeps the audience at bay, constructing characters that act mysteriously but never randomly -- you won't see certain things coming (how we wish more films were like this), and while they're shocking, the train of thought is believable. And aside from the invigorating tone, lovable look, and restrained camera style, one of the greatest triumphs of the film is its offbeat humor -- a dry, surprising playfulness that pops up every so often that prevents the film from being overtly somber. Word from the Cannes front was that Larrain's "No," while a crowd-pleaser, had very little in common with his previous output. We'd be lying if we said we weren't looking forward to it, but on the other hand, it'd be a shame to see this fine aesthetic return to the grave (read our review).

I just saw "Take This Waltz" last night and oh my god was it atrocious. It was convoluted, disjointed, and meandering. My friends and I described it as "if David Lynch were to do a rom com/dramedy", using his usual Lynchian trademarks, but failed miserably on every level. I want my money back. That aside, most of this list is pretty solid. I like how the Playlist equally balances commercial, indie, and foreign films. Although "21 Jump Street" was one of if not THE worst film I've seen this year. I'm glad they brought up "Kill List", as that was one of the most diabolically clever movies I've seen of that genre in as far back as I can remember.

Have never seen anything about Ava Duverney's Middle of Nowhere on here. Won Sundance Best Director and I finally saw at LAFF last week and it kinda knocked my socks off. That and All is Well and Sunkissed were really quite excellent. Saw all at LAFF.
bohmer | June 24, 2012 8:58 PM
I'd put THE GREY and LAURENCE ANYWAYS in that list, both films are a bit flawed but so much refreshing and surprising.
Leonardo | June 23, 2012 4:57 PM
Damn i have to wait till some of these get to my country, and other ones were arlready here but i dind't have money to go to the cinemas.

Thomas Doret should played Aaron Cross in 'The Bourne Legacy'. The CIA would never be able to catch this kid.
basilbeast | June 21, 2012 4:49 PM
If you're going to stick Avengers in with this eclectic selection of visual fare, I'd add John Carter ( of Mars ).
Tim | June 21, 2012 1:23 PM
The best films out so far this year was "The Deep Blue Sea" (Rachel Weisz's performance was amazing) and "Moolight Kingtom". The rest of the year so far has been mediocre at best.
ben | June 21, 2012 12:50 PM
Hey, I loved the list. You got some really great films there. But in terms of documentaries, I thought "Indie Game" definitely should be mentioned. I found it to be one of the most fascinating and entertaining documentaries I have seen in quite sometime. I know it played in limited release but I really think it should be searched out for those who love documentaries.
gerty | June 21, 2012 12:36 PM
for me the best was jeff who lives at home so far, i did enjoy some others as well but they didnt exactly stood out. cant wait to see monrise kingdom and pretty much anything else from my most anticipated list. personally i think 2012 has been pretty bad for movies so far but the second half will probably make it one of the best years in recent history.
AS | June 21, 2012 12:04 PM
At this point in the year there isn't much to choose from but The Deep Blue Sea is by far the best so far.
Brian | June 21, 2012 11:45 AM
Out of curiosity, what are we considering 'Kill List' at this juncture? 2011 or 2012?
Oogle monster | June 21, 2012 11:29 AM
Moonrise Kingdom ftw! Also, Take this Waltz- while I can defend it to a certain degree (the cinematography and score are splendid and Rogen gives a commendable performance)- Michelle Williams is essentially playing Cindy from Blue Valentine with an awful wig, chubbier face, and hipster meets farmers market clothing. I say this as a big big big fan of Williams, Polley and especially Blue Valentine. Itâs an extension of her character in BV⦠transplanted to Canada. Iâd say go see it to watch Rogen play the straight-laced guy (and he has a few funny zingers as well) but there isnât much to it other than the fact that you want to slap Williamsâ character in the face for being sullen ALL THE TIME.
Cribbster | June 21, 2012 11:25 AM
I would have included "Goon" and HBO's "Game Change" over "The Deep Blue Sea" and "Safety Not Guaranteed."
I might need to see "Deep Blue Sea" again (I was really disappointed), but I'm positive "Safety Not Guaranteed" is only slightly better than mediocre. It's not terribly funny, and the film really only becomes about whether the guy can travel through time. The filmmakers try to distract you from that with a bunch of shallow character stuff, but it's an aggressively mediocre movie, I think.
matt | June 21, 2012 10:26 AM
no love for Oslo, August 31?
Monica | June 21, 2012 10:09 AM
Great list, except forThe Avengers was a stupid blockbuster. Script full of holes and horrible performances.

Rusty gold with a nice head of foam and excellent lacing. The aroma is intense, very fruity, and consists of hops(2 cs[cascades centennials], goldings, and one other I think), some sweet biscuity malts, and a special IPA spiciness that sometimes rears its head. The taste is hoppy as hell in the front, with some strong malty flavors in the middle, and a somewhat sweet, fruity, hopbomb-like finish. The mouthfeel is medium bodied and to style and the drinkability is very good as well. One of the best brewpub IPAs I have had in a while.

Amazing. I must confess, I went into Sly Fox thinking this was going to be the ONLY brew I was going to drink...
Silly rabbitt...
This IPA presented with a deep and rich golden, almost hazy peach color... hey, I am color-challenged... The aroma filed my sinuses with beautiful hops and a good bit of citrus, but not to a fault. I caught some malt lingering in the bushes, so to speak, and I liked that from this offering... A beautiful rendition of what an IPA should be, and sneaky at that, being 7.3% ABV...

My bottle of Rt 113 IPA poured a crystal clear dark amber.
A fluffy white head with generous bubbles welled up from the beer.
Tenacious lacing clung to the glass walls right to last drop...
Modest fruity citrus nose heralded the hops flavor to come.
Hops galore is the first note of this fine IPA taste. The flavor differentiates into a hops and citrus with a long lasting bitter that sweeps into a clean finish that doesn't quit.
Flavor brokered a bold up front IPA body with a very congenial personality that makes this IPA a beer to request and enjoy over and over..
I like! I like!

Appearance: clear light amber with orange highlights. Thick 2" fluffy head.
Smell: the nose picked up the hops as the glass was just slid next to me at the bar. As the glass was brought to my nose the citrus and floral hops were very pleasant and up front.
Taste: this was a well balanced IPA, as malt and strong bitterness was joined with grapefruit dancing in background to round it out.
Mouthfeel: crisp at the start and finish. The finish was also very dry and long on the bitterness.
Drinkability: I found this beer to be extremely drinkable, and if you are a hophead, this beer is for you.

4.43/5 rDev +19.4%
Pours with a vicious craggy cratered vanilla 2 inch head cap atop a well filtered polished copper hue with a few rising bubbles. Killer foamy frothy head cap that just wont quit. Yee-haw!
Aroma is a stark piney bright hops with a crisp honey and grassy compliment. Robust deep vanilla meets pine sap.
First swigs: Woody pine aspects meet well with a slight tea like malt balance but the full front is hop woody. Enjoyable blend of tea aspects and dry white grapefruit slices.
Feel is medium bodied and clean as all get out. Quite drinkable and solid. Too bad that finding this is getting too rare as its popularity increases. Make more!
Last swigs: Could I drink these all night? Ummm..yup! Gimmie more!
Beer is good. Happy good beering.

This beer was served in a pub glass.
Appearance: The beer has a very dark amber coloration. The beer has tight carbonation. The head is thick and puffy with a biege coloration. The head never fully resolved while drinking this beer.
Smell: The beer delivers a major grape fruit and pine cone resin hoppyness. The malty backbone has a sweet caramel kick.
Taste: The beer is seriously hoppy. This beer delivers a major grapefruit lead in. The caramel maltyness comes in breaking the intial hoppyness. The beer then goes pine cone oily and citrus zest bitter. The beer has a very good dry finish.
Mouthfeel/ Drinkability: The beer is on the plus side of medium bodied. The hop oilyness prolongs the flavor. This is a well balanced hop treat. This is a very easy to drink beer. I had problems setting this beer down while drinking it.

Pours a crystal clear amber with a tall billowy head. Aroma is toasty malt and a ton of hops, fresh and citrusy.
Taste is a good toasted malt base with a blanket of sweet hops laid on top. Nice bitter bite at the back of the throat but mostly mild, juicy, citrus hops up front. Nice balance, I like that grassy sweet element.
Mouthfeel is medium, leaves the palate very clean. Not what I would call a hop-bomb but that leaves it quite drinkable.

Appearance: My wife bought me a case of this one at our favorite local distributor, In-N-Out. The guys there are very knowledgeable and recommended this one to her and am I glad. This beer poured a beautiful thick frothy two finger head. As I drank the beer it got more impressive with amazing sticky lace. The side of the glass became covered from top to bottom. The color was a very clear orangish amber.
Smell: Grassy hops backed with caramel malt.
Taste: Plenty of grassy hop flavor with just a touch of spice. The hops are domineering, but are balanced well with the sweet malt flavor. Quite good, I'm glad I've got 6 more 22 oz. bottles.
Mouthfeel: Course.
Drinkability: This one went down easy and I'm sure I could easily down another 22 ozer.

22oz bomber.
medium amber color, with HUGE, thick, creamy head.
My olfactory bulb is telling me that it's a Schmidt's 12oz grenade-bottle.... reminds me of fetching my dad a beer when I was a kid.
Hoppy, citrus, pine flavorings, with nice bite in the aftertaste.
This is NOT an "extreme" hop-fest, but rather nicely balaced and pleasing.
VERY DRINKABLE, tasty, yet mellow IPA. Very nice beer to stick with throughout an entire evening.

I got a 1/6 of this on the suggestion of Matt @The Beer Yard. Fantastic brew. This is the last beer from the keg and it's STILL amazing with perfect head and carbonation in the last glass. I could be crazy but the keg over 2 weeks seemed to mellow out and become better with each passing day. Anyway, it poured a deep and clean amber/copper color. The scent was very Hoppy --- strong asertive hops, not light citrus hops from the west coast. This just felt like an East Coast IPA. The taste was smooth and raw at the same time. The only way to describe is earthy and grassy, but clean and crisp as well. There was a nice toasted malt backbone as well and the sweetness was nice but not overbearing. The moutfeel as I stated before was effervescent and lasted until way after the last sip. This was TOO drinkable --- at 7% this puppy sneeks up on you quick. A great brew from a small but noteable brewery. This IPA is up there with some of the great East Coast IPA's (even Hop Devil).

22 oz bomber out of a case from the Beer Yard.
Poured into a special edition Sam Adams etched glass.
A- Deep amber with orange hues. One finger head, not much lacing.
S- Malt first, then a slight citrus hop aroma. Was expecting a bit more hop aroma, but still nice.
T- Upfront hops, nice malt balance, great finish.
M- Bitter (good), tingles on the tongue with no sign of alcohol.
D- Very easy to drink, perfect carbonation. Could drink this one all night...
Another SlyFox flagship masterpiece...

Picked this up on a beer run to Monster Beverage in Glassborg, NJ.
Pours from the bottle a pale orange, nearly a caramel color. Very thick head, that dissipates very slowly and clings heavily to the glass.
Smell is a malt start with citrusy hop finish. Not as strong as I anticipated.
Taste is malt at first, with a citrusy hops follow up and bitter finish. Not an overpowering aftertaste. I like the strong malt notes and citrus hops combination.
Mouthfeel is pretty smooth, considering the bitterness. Lightly carbonated and pretty smooth finish.
Very drinkable, I could put back a few so I am glad I picked this up in the 22oz bottle.

Served a clear deep amber colored beer with moderate white puffy head. Smell is domianted by pine, citrus and fresh cut grassiness. Taste is also strong on hops with enough malt to provide a good balance. Finishes on the dry side with the malt mainly supressed. An extremely enjoyable beer with too easy drinkability for a 7% beer.

Another gift from the east -- and another in the first of my canned-crafts.
A -- Rich, deep amber-orange color with a soft, light tan head that settles to a persistent cap.
S -- Mellow spicy and earthy hops dominate. Biscuit malts peek through with more warming.
T -- Fruity esters up front that blend into spicy, earthy hops and mellow biscuit malt making a strong backbone. Very English character in the malt balance and nodding to U.S. influence with just the right hops. Finishes with fruit esters and a pleasantly bitter kick in the aftertaste. Very delicious and deceiving at 7%.
M -- Light medium body with a crisp mouthfeel. Dry in the finish.
D -- Flavorful and tasty -- well-balanced, luring you to want another... and maybe another. This is not the most extreme IPA out there, just very well crafted.

The latest can from Sly Fox. Very happy to see it!
A-Pours a hazy copper with hints of amber, a frothy off white head and nice sticky lacing.
S-Seems more aromatic than the bottle to me, especially in the citrus part of the nose. Nice grapefruit, some juicy peach and good strong caramel malt.
T-Nicely crisp and earthy. Sweet and slightly roasty malt in the front, earthy bitter hops kick in nicely in the finish. Nice complex, well blended flavors. Again, I prefer this to my recollection of the bottled version.
M-Medium bodied with a good crisp dryness.
D-Completely enjoyable. Great flavors, crisp and fresh. Travels well in a can, which was a great thing on our recent vacation. No room in the car for lots of beer, so carting the cans was a huge space saver.

Monday will mark our sixth anniversary here at the Tenth Amendment Center!
Looking back, "we've come a long way baby!"
Throughout the weekend, I will be reminiscing about some of the milestones and big moments through the last six years here at the TAC.
Over the past year, the Tenth Amendment Center garnered plenty of media attention. The TAC had mentions in major papers such at the Wall Street Journal, the Washington Post and the Washington Times, along with numerous state and local papers and news websites. Esquire Magazine gave us a little ink during the last year. And we've also heard our name mentioned on the radio, both nationally and locally. Some of the big think tanks are paying attention too. The Heritage Foundation regularly addresses our arguments, and the Southern Poverty Law Center has us on their "bad guys" list.
But it wasn't always that way. It's taken a lot of hard work and perseverance to position the Tenth Amendment Center as a go-to organization on constitutional issues, state sovereignty and nullification in the media.
So, when was the first ever mainstream media mention of the Tenth Amendment Center?
It came on March 27, 2009, in a Christian Science Monitor when Micheal Boldin was quoted in an article titled States rebel against Washington.
You can read the whole article HERE.

Very good location for walking to main visitor attractions.
Continental Breakfast was expensive.
Perfect location. Historic hotel with plenty of character. Furnished with indivual antique furniture, no doubt purchased in the local antiques shops. Good value.
Courtyard rooms are a bargain price, but the 'courtyard' is not a pretty view, just a rather gloomy area of low roofing at the back of the hotel. In hot weather, though, this was the coolest part of the hotel.
Location. Room with a view to louvre and seine. Location. Price. Great value for money.
View of seine Size of room The staff were helpful Functioning wifi
No air conditioning Very dated and needs complete refurb
Wonderful view of the Seine and the Louvre.
Within 5-minute walk from Louvre and D'orsay. 10-15 minute walk from Notre Dame and Place de la Concorde.
Breakfast portion is small and not budget friendly, rooms are a bit out-dated, elevator is slow,
great location good price Overlooking the river very nice
bit tired rooms small signs about not bringing food and drink into the hotel esp alcoholic drinks
We have been to the Quai Voltaire three times over 25 years. The location can't be beat, the rates are reasonable. We were pleased to discover the windows facing the street are now double-paned, which goes a long way toward blocking the considerable street noises. The staff is friendly and helpful. And the view of the Seine and the Louvre from the street-facing rooms is sublime.
The rooms are small. The double bed is small for two people. The elevator is comically tiny. Not sir-conditioned.
Charming decor and very good room size with great view of Seine and Louvre. Noisy street but surprisingly quiet when windows closed. Location was perfect for walking to all of the main attractions with metro close.
No air conditioning but room fan provided some help. For July it was surprisingly comfortable at night..
Located on the west bank opposite the Louvre, 10 minutes to the Latin Quarter. Forth floor rooms (at the front) have balconies overlooking the Seine.
location was excellent
the room was very small but I was really only in to sleep.
Fantastic location, beautiful view to Louvre, quaint little hotel
Room was small (this is common as we understand)
Very basic
This hotel is very centrally located and we were able to walk to a lot of the sights. The nearest metro we used was on Rue Solferino about 5 mins walk away. The staff in the hotel were very helpful with directions to everything. We didn't have brealfast at the hotel, but there are loads of nice restaurants and boulangerie nearby. The rooms in the hotel are small but that's the way in Paris. We all had a wonderful view of the Seine and the Louvre right across from us. Would most definitely use this hotel again!!
The hotel is well situated for moving around without using transport. Very near to good restaurants and shops. Pleasant staff. Clean and well serviced rooms.
The room we were allocated this time was rather small compared with previous visits.
location clean
noisey at night if you leave window open no air but i knew that when i booked
The price was ok and the room and breakfast staff were ok .
Extremely rude reception, very noisy...cannot open windows...very slow internet
Closeness to everything.
Everything else.-Rooms were small and staff was disinterested.
Location,location, location. Fabulous views of the Seine. Shuttle service to the airport fantastic savings over a cab.
Lower floor rooms a little small and beds very uncomfortable, as well much noisier.
Great location, view over the Seine and Le Louvre, quaint hotel with history, great wifi, good meals.
Accessible to most sites we wanted to visit by foot.
A well-equipped room in a stunning location, with 24 hour reception.
Unfortunately staff errors undermined the quality of this hotel. Mistakes were made with breakfast orders at each meal (and other guests reported the same); Laundry left with the staff for same day return was forgotten; and our door was left unlocked after cleaning on two occasions.
Location proximity to major sites of Paris, you could walk to most of them.
When collecting room key after day out you did not have to show identity. Iam sure the staff could not remember every person in the hotel.
super location on the seine and very close to the louvre and musee d'orsay. many local restaurants and reasonably close to the metro as well. very good breakfasts and charming common rooms though small. an intimate hotel. views out our window to the river were special.
the view, the location, the staff are all outstanding.
the rooms are small and no tea-making but this is normal for parisian hotels unfortunately

How to Sell, Swap, or Donate Clothes
How to Swap Old Clothes
Another approach to recycling clothing involves swapping, which means you trade your things for another person's.
Swap Party
A group of women gather in someone's home to exchange clothing. Some parties also allow women to buy or sell clothing for
nominal prices.
What to swap: It all depends on the rules set forth by the hostess (and, quite frankly, what she's looking to acquire). One swap party may call for designer items, another for shoes and accessories.
How it works: Again, the rules vary. You can swap items based on value. If there isn't a suitable swap, a guest can offer to buy outright. Every partygoer will usually show up with one or two pieces and leave with one or two new ones. (Swaps tend to be one for one.)
Where to find it: Word of mouth.
An international virtual swap party, done entirely via the Internet.
What to swap: Clothing, shoes, accessories, and cosmetics. Designer items receive the most attention.
How it works: Membership is free. After you've registered, the process is much like eBay or Craigslist, only you're swapping, not selling.
Where to find it: swapstyle.com.

I'm a former tenant who has yet to comment on the issues at 563 Warren Street, and feel I should add a little context. I first encountered an outbreak of bedbugs in July of 2011. The landlord put me in touch with the Topco exterminators. The exterminators only came once (despite my efforts to have them come a second time when the problems persisted). The Topco exterminators were extremely rude on the phone - it's very rarely I am treated in such an unprofessional manner. I had to move out becau
se the issues with the bedbugs were unresolved after several months of effort. This was on a different floor than the commenter from #1L, and it predates all the issues in the comments listed below. I, of course, cannot speak to the current conditions in the building - so just wanted to add some more information to the discourse.
Anonymous on 04/25/2012
As of today there are still bed bugs in the building. They have come and gone now for several months. The landlord has been much more responsive to concerns, but the problem has yet to be completely resolved.
563 Warren LLC. on 01/16/2012
At the following link (http://www.dec.ny.gov/docs/materials_minerals_pdf/busweb.pdf) you may lookup our exterminator's info on the Department of Environmental Conservation website:
13815 2/28/2014
Our exterminator is licensed, experienced and knows what he's doing. He's using the right chemicals properly. This disgruntled tenant left the building months ago; I don't know what possesses her to continue to defame t
he building.
We have attacked the problem agressively and believe the building to be bug free -- as much as can be guaranteed in this day and age in NYC. I am in close contact with all the tenants, and the exterminator and I stand ready to react immediately should the problem resurface, G-d forbid.
563 apartment #1L former tenant on 01/13/2012
I already moved out of the apartment because of the issue, but one thing the tenants are not saying is that the exterminators the landlord is using is NOT LICENSED! This means they could be spraying who-knows-what chemicals and pesticides to eradicate the problem, but there are two major issues with this. (1) whatever they are using is not working and (2) the chemicals could be hazardous to humans. This is why the state provides exterminating licenses in the first place - for public health. If y
ou live in 563 Warren Street I would demand to your landlord that he uses a company that is licensed, provide the license info, and if not - take him to housing court. This is a major health matter.
Anonymous on 01/11/2012
I have lived in the apartment for over 5 months now, and I feel that both our landlord and super are doing all that they can to adequately handle the situation. Our landlord has been in constant contact with me, checking in regularly by phone and email. The exterminator has also come to our apartment several times, and is willing to address all the problems we present. It is clear that our landlord wants a bedbug free building just as much, if not more, than we do.
anonymous on 12/28/2011
I feel that the landlord handled the bedbug situation in an efficient manner. I have been living in the building since 1996 and he has always been cooperative in taking care of everything that needed to be handled in a professional, time sensitive manner. He addressed the problem vigorously and there is presently no evidence of any bedbugs in the building, this is the first episode of bedbugs in the building since I have been living there that I am aware of.
Anonymous on 12/22/2011
Last week the exterminator did get into all apartments, and he was very coperative. All apartments were treated and they have taken an integrated approach by asking the tenants to keep clean and not have any clutter. The exterminator or the landlord cannot clean everyone's laundry. In addition there isnt currently a single apartment today in the building that hasnt been treated. No bugs were found last week but as a percaution the landlord had every apartment treated.
bed bugged in brooklyn on 12/21/2011
The problem mentioned by previous posters still persists as of today. Most apartments in the building have been sprayed multiple times, but not all, at least partially due to the reluctance on another tenant's part. The landlord seems to be making an effort, but is not being nearly thorough enough. While the pest control company he hires *is* licensed, they are NOT using an integrated approach and have been highly unsatisfactory. Upon raising these concerns to the landlord, he has been unrespons
ive in changing his approach.
Anonymous on 11/02/2011
I concur that the problem was not handled appropriately because it took way too long to get the apartments sprayed causing the bugs to move from one apartment to the next. The exterminator was also rude and dismissive of my concerns. I also do not think he did a thorough job spraying my apartment.
Anonymous on 10/23/2011
We have and are currently dealing with bedbugs in one of the apartments in this building. The landlord is extremely slow to act, uncooperative, and always on religious "holiday" so it's difficult to get anything done - especially since it's important to act swiftly. The exterminators he hired are NOT licensed and we have no idea what chemicals they're spraying and soaking our apartment with. He also has not had the other apartments inspected as required by law and requested by us. Think twice be
fore moving into this building!!!!!!!
No nearby bug reports
