Two iconic American rock groups will share the stage at the Fabulous Forum this summer as Cheap Trick joins Boston for their "Heaven on Earth" tour. Known for their killer pop hooks, Boston sold millions during the '70s and '80s with their catchy version of prog rock. Their self-titled debut was one of the fastest-selling pop debuts in history, spawning three hit singles that became American classics: "More Than a Feeling," "Long Time" and "Peace of Mind." At the same time, Cheap Trick was perfecting the delicate balance between power pop and hard rock that made them a major influence on future punk, metal and alternative bands. Songs like "I Want You to Want Me," "Surrender" and "Dream Police," along with their dynamic live performances, sealed their reputation as arena rock gods. Now, 40 years into their careers, the two bands are still going strong. The "Heaven on Earth" tour is traveling the country in support of Boston's sixth studio album release, Life, Love & Hope, and this is one of a select few appearances where Cheap Trick will be performing with them.

We love all the story programs on NPR and being part of the audience was a very special treat! We would go again in a heartbeat. Purchasing our tickets with Goldstar was easy and picking up even easier. Goldstar is our first and last stop to purchase tickets for any and all events. The crazy fees added by other venues and ticket company is outrageous. LOVE Goldstar!!

China, in particular, has been investing heavily in large HPC systems and in its own microprocessor and interconnects technologies.
The U.S. set up some strict criteria for its exascale effort.
The system needs to be relatively low power as well as be a platform for a wide range of applications. The government also wants exascale research spending to lead to marketable technologies that can help the IT industry.
The U.S. plan, when delivered to Congress, will call for building two or three prototype systems by 2018. Once a technology approach is proven, the U.S. will order anywhere from one to three exascale systems, said Harrod.
Exascale system development poses a unique set of power, memory, concurrency and resiliency challenges.
Resiliency refers to the ability to keep a massive system, with millions of cores, continuously running despite component failures. "I think resiliency is going to be a great challenge and it really would be nice if the computer would stay up for more than a couple of hours," said Harrod.
The scale of the challenge is evident in the power goals.
The U.S. wants an exascale system that needs no more than 20 megawatts (MW) of power. In contrast, the leading petascale systems in operation today use as much 8 or more MW.
Although processor capability remains paramount, it is not the center of attention in exascale system design.
Dave Turek, vice president of exascale systems at IBM, said the real change with exascale systems isn't around the microprocessor, especially in the era of big data. "It's really settled around the idea of data and minimizing data movement as the principal design philosophy behind what comes in the future," he said.
In today's systems, data has to travel a long way which uses up power. Datasets are "being generated are so large that it's basically impractical to write the data out to disk and bring it all back in to analyze it," said Harrod.
"We need systems that have large memory capacity," said Harrod. "If we limit the memory capacity we limit the ability to execute the applications as they need to be run," he said.
Exascale systems require a new programing model, and for now there isn't one.
High performance computing allows scientists to model, simulate and visualize processes. The systems can run endless scenarios to test hypothesis, such as discovering how a drug may interact with a cell or how a solar cell operates.
Larger systems allow scientists to expand resolution, or look at problems in finer detail, as well as increase the amount of physics to any problem.
The U.S. research effort would aim to fully utilize the potential of exascale, and achieve a "one billion concurrency."

M&GB staff predictions: Appalachian State
The eight-month wait is finally ticking down into the final hours and I'm sure you can hardly contain yourself. Last night we got to watch the first real football of the season and tonight we get to watch our rivals in East Lansing feast on an inferior opponent. Tomorrow, it's our turn. Seemingly everyone has made their predictions by now and now it's time to make ours. We make it an internal competition throughout the season to see who is the most accurate. Derick won the title last season, so he will try to repeat. Here are our predictions:
As I said in this morning's game preview, there's not much good that can come out of this game. Win big: good, just as expected. Win close: uh oh. Lose: all hell will break loose. A dominating performance that leaves no doubt is needed, but just like in last season's opener against Central Michigan, it won't tell us much going forward. The most important thing for the offense is to get the offensive line some confidence, let Derrick Green and De'Veon Smith show what they can do, and enable Devin Gardner to begin developing chemistry between his talented but inexperienced receiving corps. And against a defense like App State's all three should happen.
I'm most excited to see Greg Mattison's new-look aggressive defense. Running back Marcus Cox is the danger man, but he can't do it all. Quarterback Kam Bryant is going to have to try to make plays through the air with an inexperienced group of receivers. This has the makings of a big day for the secondary, and can you imagine the hype if Jabrill Peppers makes a big play? Michigan wins big, gives the starters a rest for much of the fourth quarter, and moves on to Notre Dame.
Michigan 52 – Appalachian State 10
I will be the first to admit that I haven't watched much (OK, make that any) Appalachian State tape to prepare for my prediction. Hell, I don't think I've seen a single Mountaineer play since that game-that-shall-not-be-named.
What I do know is that Michigan will play Appalachian State to kick off this season for some unknown and illogical reason. Lightning has struck twice before, but I would venture to say that this weekend should see clear skies and a return to normalcy…at least for the time being. Michigan's depth and athleticism on offense paired with a potentially stout defense should prove to be far too much for Appalachian State (don't worry, I just knocked on wood…twice). The Devin-to-Devin connection will reach paydirt twice while both Derrick Green and De'Veon Smith both score TDs along with the first career scoring reception from Amara Darboh. Michigan rolls.
Michigan 45 – Appalachian State 7
Will this year's matchup with Appalachian State be redemption? No, of course Michigan can never erase that 2007 upset. But there certainly won't be a repear oF that debacle, at least not this year.
Michigan should dominate defensively, and an inconsistent offense will flourish against a weak, new-to-FBS opponent. Devin Gardner is going to be the talk of the town on Saturday, leading Michigan to the win.
Michigan 45 – Appalachian State 14
It's finally that time again. I'll be honest, I'm not looking at this game as 'revenge' and I'm not even upset about 2007′s game. Yes, it was (utterly) disappointing but App State was a two-time defending champ that would go on to with a third straight and was loaded with talent. But neither of the teams that took the field back then are taking the field this Saturday.
On to 2014, we know App. State is not the '07 version and it's not even close. Yes, Michigan has many questions on offense but the defense will be very good (possibly elite). App. State wasn't very good at stopping the run last year so I expect to see much of the same from them. Even with unknowns on Michigan's offensive line I think the run game will get going early and often,while mostly unproven Michigan still has loads of talent. This, in turn, 'should' open up the play-action game and Michigan's superior athletic talent should run (literally & figuratively) rampant over the Mountaineers. On defense I expect to see a lot of blitzes, from everywhere on the field, which should leave to some turnovers and easy scores for the offense.
I know we've all been waiting with baited breath for Jabrill Peppers to take the field and, unlike with Norfleet where I always just expected his next game to be the one he finally breaks a return touchdown, I actually DO think Peppers will find the end zone. We've all seen his highlights, and if you haven't welcome back from under the rock from which you've been hiding for the past 12 months. The kid is just an absolute freak of nature, and apparently he comes with an 'edge' according to Hoke.
All in all I expect this to be a typical blowout against a lesser opponent. Turnovers will be forced by the defense and the offense shouldn't have too much trouble putting up points.
Michigan 52 – Appalachian State 9
It's time to get this season kicked off with a BANG and exorcise some demons in the process. I'm 100 percent certain there is not a player or coach on the maize and blue sideline that cares about the last meeting between these two programs. I'm also 100 percent certain that the entire 109,000-plus fans in attendance do. That's what makes this game so interesting. I think the offense will look to establish the running game early and wear down a smaller Mountaineer defense. Ball control…ball control….ball control. The offense will be able to move the ball relatively easy through the air as well with Funchess being a beast in the middle. A beast!
I can't wait to see em turn the defense loose. Lots of blitz packages early will rattle an inexperienced App State bunch and create some early turnovers. Jake Ryan will have these guys buzzing and should force four or five turnovers throughout the game. They don't give up more than 17 points in this one. Because of the turnovers, Michigan will have plenty of short fields to work with and take advantage putting up 45-plus.
Michigan 48 – Appalachian State 17

Michelle Peluso will take over from Kevin Ryan early next year.
Gilt Groupe Inc. has named a new CEO. Michelle Peluso will take over that job at the end of February, replacing Gilt founder and CEO Kevin Ryan, who becomes chairman. Susan Lyne moves to vice chairman from chairman. Lyne and Ryan swapped places in 2010.
Peluso comes from Citigroup Inc., where she was global consumer chief marketing and Internet officer. She had worked for the financial institution since 2009, Gilt says. Before that, she worked as CEO of online travel agency Travelocity, a position she held between 2003 and 2009. She also worked as Travelocity's chief operating officer and senior vice president of product strategy and distribution. She started at the travel services firm in 2000, Gilt says.
Flash sale e-retailer Gilt is No. 49 in the Internet Retailer Top 500 Guide.
"Michelle's deep Internet experience, coupled with her operating and marketing background, made her my ideal choice to be Gilt's CEO going forward," says Ryan. "We have worked together for three years as fellow board members and I am thrilled she will be leading Gilt to its next level of growth and market leadership."

Say "Yes" to the Revolution
Dear Mom and Dad,
I hear you are going to vote "yes" on the draft constitution. But because I know you well, and I know you only stand up for what is right, I would like to tell you a short story and make a small request.
The story took place on the eve of Hosni Mubarak's stepping down, when there were millions of us in Tahrir Square and the surrounding streets. I was going back into the square, having briefly left with my friends to have dinner. It was difficult moving through the crowds. We were looking for somewhere to stand near the microphones to listen to Mubarak's speech — the speech we were all waiting for, praying he would announce he was stepping down.
While I was moving through the crowds, a woman grabbed my arm. She was wearing a black abeya and a veil. She looked worn out and sad. At first I thought she was leaning on me to avoid being pushed over by the crowd, or to take strength from me given the frailty of her body. But she looked at me deeply and said, "Do not forget the martyrs, my son … do not forget those who died," then she burst into tears. She continued repeating the same sentence, while I was trying to recover from the shock.
I felt this woman chose me from amongst the millions of Egyptians to tell me this. I felt she was holding me responsible for continuing the path that her son began. But alas, I felt I was not strong enough to hold my responsibility.
I will not pretend a heroism I do not possess. I will not claim I was a warrior in the battlefields. When the police threw teargas bombs at us, it was not me who would advance to the front to throw the canister back at them. I am not one of those heroes who stayed steadfast in Mohamed Mahmoud Street until the military announced a date for handing over power. I was always just a backline witness.
But I promise here to tell you the truth you will never watch on TV channels. I promise I will try as hard as I can to dispel the confusion the media creates by making a claim on one channel and its opposite on the other.
The truth I want you, Mom and Dad, to know and uphold is that my companions on the day the martyr's mother held my hand were a mix of people from diverse intellectual leanings. Despite this, we never discussed our differences. We shared food and fear. And we swore before God that our revolution had one, and only one, aim: "Bread, freedom, and social justice."
On that day, we promised the martyr's mother we would never forget her son or any other martyr.
The regrettable truth is that the Tahrir-mates are no longer the companions they used to be. Some betrayed us. Power lust led them astray. They deceived us and chanted, "Bread, freedom, social justice." But we discovered that their revolution was for power and not for ideals.
If they try to rewrite history by claiming they led the revolution — as they are doing now — say "no" to them.
Your son was an eyewitness to this revolution. So please remind those who turned their backs on us that they failed to join the 25 January protests. Remind them that they left the youth, whose image they are now trying to tarnish, to be beaten up and arrested in the streets on 26 and 27 January.
The simple truth is that the revolution was imposed on these people. They were forced to join in on 28 January.
If they try to lie in the preamble to their constitution claiming that someone other than the youth protected the revolution, say "no" to them.
Tell them that the people protected the revolution, and that it was the people alone who stood up to the military during the July 2011 Tahrir Square sit-in until they put Mubarak in prison.
It was the people alone who stood against the military's bullets during the Mohamed Mahmoud battles, until the Supreme Council of the Armed Forces was forced to announce a date for the handover of power.
It was them alone who resisted army injustice when it killed Sheikh Emad Effat and crushed Mina Daniel underneath their Armed Personnel Carriers.
Say "no" to them, because they are religion brokers.
Just as on the first anniversary of the revolution they used the Quran in order to drown out the people's chants against the military, today they are using religion in order to divide us, claiming that the opposition hates religion and knows no moral values.
Tell them that we know religion better than them, and that is why we are exposing their lies and deception in its name.
Say "no" to them because their constitution divides us, and will not realize the demands that genuine revolutionaries rose up for: bread, freedom and social justice.
Their constitution is nothing more than a deal. It suits the needs of those who betrayed the revolution and longed for power. It fulfills the demands of those who claim they protected the revolution while they were trying to steal it from its true creators.
Say "no" because they deceived us before, when they said that "yes" will ensure stability. You said "yes" and there was no stability.
They said the Parliament will bring about stability. So, despite their betrayal of the blood of the Mohamed Mahmoud martyrs, we elected them. Yet there was still no stability.
Then we called on them to take full power from the military on the first anniversary of the revolution. But they refused and clashed with us — and there was still no stability.
Then it was time for the presidential election runoffs. We supported their candidate against the Mubarak regime's candidate. We stood behind them and made them victorious. In return, they promised us participation and not domination; they promised renaissance and stability. But here we are today: all of the promises have been broken and still — there is no stability.
Say "no" because they promised us they would change the composition of the Constituent Assembly, and broke the promise.
Say "no" because we are still following the military's transition roadmap. They resist changing it because they know their number of seats in the Assembly will be reduced. Genuine representation for all of Egyptians frightens their fascist organization, which claims it is more religious, principled, and patriotic than us.
Say "no" because we never saw the crowds that gathered outside Cairo University in the Islamists' "legitimacy and Sharia" rally rise up for the fall of Mubarak, or for the application of Sharia under Mubarak's rule.
Say "no" because the figures that appeared on their podiums declared the revolutionaries are not Muslims, because they stood against the ruler. Some of them even called on us to give Mubarak a chance. And today they say what Mubarak used to say: that our tents are a house for alcohol, drugs, and sexual relations.
Say "no" because you taught me to stand up for what is right, even when what is wrong is stronger.
If the referendum result is "yes," I will not regret my choice to vote "no."
Our revolution continues, whatever the result will be, until we realize our demands for bread, freedom, and social justice.
I swear to you that these young people, the real revolutionaries, seek neither power nor personal glory. Do not believe we are controlled by an elite or by the glory hunters on satellite TVs. It is us who control this feeble elite, which is pursuing its own interests.
Say "no" because it is the youth who forced this elite — which was leaning toward a boycott — to engage in the battle, and rely on you to make us victorious. We are betting on you at a time when those who want a "yes" are betting on division, sectarianism and false religious slogans.
We have no one else but you, our families, after God. The military betrayed us, and the religion brokers disappointed us and declared us traitors.
You are the judge between us. They claim that heaven is reserved for those who say "yes." We do not possess a heaven to promise you. We can only promise that our revolution will continue for your sake.
Say "no" because their constitution is illegitimate, or doubtful, and "he who chooses to follow a doubtful road chooses what is haram."
Say "no" because we are convinced that what is right will prevail.
Say "no" because we will win.

New sites are identified for 100ft wind turbines (From The Bolton News)
New sites are identified for 100ft wind turbines
8:15am Saturday 8th December 2012 in News
TWO potential sites for 100-foot wind turbines have been identified on the outskirts of Bolton.
Planning chiefs from Blackburn with Darwen Council identified the sites after touring the borough to find possible locations for new wind turbine developments.
The group of planning committee members decided one site near Belmont, in the dip between the village and Winter Hill, and another at Cadshaw Bridge, off the A666 between Egerton and Darwen. A third side at Entwistle was looked at but was deemed unsuitable.
North Turton and Tockholes councillor Colin Rigby, who represents the area in which both sites fall, said he thought there were better alternatives to wind turbines.
He said: "I am told all the time we need turbines and I can understand the requirement for them in some cases.
"But when it comes to these massive ones, I can't believe they are an economic viability.
"A lot of the time they are on farm land, like the proposed one at Bull Hill in Darwen that got refused, and the landowners are subsidised. That, to me, is the economy of the madhouse."
Liberal Democrat Cllr Paul Browne, who sits on the Blackburn with Darwen planning committee, said the impact on nearby residents was the main focus.
He said: "At Belmont the people who would see any turbines would be in Chorley and Preston.
"Nobody in Blackburn with Darwen would be affected and it won't interfere with TV reception. The same goes for Cadshaw Bridge as there are no homes nearby. I think these two sites would be ideal for wind turbines. These were the only two sites in the borough we felt would be suitable, so if applications for turbines anywhere else are made I think they will be turned down."
He said he did not want people to have the same problems as those in other parts of the borough had reported, where TV reception has been affected by wind turbines.

Meanwhile, windpower, which makes no economic sense apart from the viewpoint of the turbine owner, continues to be unsustainably subsidised and the turbines themselves IMPORTED thus not helping the economy.
Apart from which, wind power can be generated less than 20% of the time.
Ditch windpower now.

Associated Press
PUNXSUTAWNEY, Pa. — An end to winter's bitter cold will come soon, according to Pennsylvania's famous groundhog.
Following a recent stretch of weather that's included temperatures well below freezing as well as record warmth, tornadoes in the South and Midwest and torrential rains in the mid-Atlantic, Punxsutawney Phil emerged from his lair Saturday in front of thousands but didn't see his shadow.
Legend has it that if the furry rodent sees his shadow on Feb. 2 on Gobbler's Knob in west-central Pennsylvania, winter will last six more weeks. But if he doesn't see his shadow, spring will come early.
The prediction is made during a ceremony overseen by a group called the Inner Circle. Members don top hats and tuxedos for the ceremony on Groundhog Day each year.
Bill Deeley, president of the Inner Circle, says that after "consulting" with Phil, he makes the call in deciphering what the world's Punxsutawney Phil has to say about the weather.
Phil is known as the "seer of seers" and "sage of sages." Organizers predicted about 20,000 people this weekend, a larger-than-normal crowd because Groundhog Day falls on a weekend this year.
"I just hope he's right and we get warmer weather soon," said Mike McKown, 45, an X-ray technician who drove up from Lynchburg, Va., with his mother.
Phil's got company in the forecasting department. There's Staten Island Chuck, in New York; General Beauregard Lee, in Atlanta; and Wiarton Willie, in Wiarton, Ontario, among others noted by the National Climactic Data Center "Groundhog Day" Web page.
"Punxsutawney can't keep something this big to itself," the Data Center said. "Other prognosticating rodents are popping up to claim a piece of the action."
Phil is the original — and the best, Punxsutawney partisans insist.
The 1993 movie "Groundhog Day" starring Bill Murray brought even more notoriety to the Pennsylvania party. The record attendance was about 30,000 the year after the movie's release, said Katie Donald, executive director of the Groundhog Club. About 13,000 attend if Feb. 2 falls on a weekday.
Phil's predictions, of course, are not always right on. Last year, for example, he told people to prepare for six more weeks of winter, a minority opinion among his groundhog brethren. The Northeast Regional Climate Center at Cornell University later listed that January to June as the warmest seven-month period since systematic records began being kept in 1895.
"We'll just mark it up as a mistake last year. He'll be correct this year," McKown said hopefully.

Venomous violets, intoxicating ivy and poisonous nightshade glow with a phosphorescent gleam – shrouding eyes in earthy metallic Eye Shadows, intensified by blackened green and plum Fluidline and the drama of False Lashes Black. Vibrant lips suggest a hidden motive as the soft warm pinks of Sheen Supreme Lipglass Tint are overpowered by the deep blue plums and darkened berries of Sheen Supreme Lipstick. A final surge of adrenaline bursts with pink and shimmery bronze Powder Blush.
After having the pleasure of trying out Sheen Supreme Lipglass in Gwi-Yo-Mi and Fluid line in Copperthorn from the range for the past month, we can give it a big two thumbs up! these two are amazing and will NOT move!
VIMI JOSHI, M.A.C's senior artist provided the following application tips for a deeper, darker and a moody look.
To achieve "Berry Stained" Lips that look luscious and juicy, apply Sheen Supreme Lipstick in Quite The Thing! all over the lips and a touch of Sheen Supreme Lipglass in Glorious Intent on the lower lips.
Lightly buff Fluid line in Nightshade all over the eye lids as a base for your eye shadows.
Using brush #239, stipple small eye shadow in Hidden Motive all over the eye lids to create an opaque finish.
Lightly coat the upper lashes with False Lash Mascara in black for an autumnal warm look.
The Collection is already available in UAE, Kuwait, Qatar and Bahrain since 15th of August. and will launch in Saudi, Oman, Lebanon and Jordan tomorrow the 30th of August.

Crackdown on payday loan costs will hurt 'many people'
The head of the Consumer Finance Association, which represents the industry, has urged people to consider the full consequences of a crackdown on the high costs and charges enforced by payday lenders.
– Russell Hamblin Boone, chief executive of the Consumer Finance Association
Anyone who thinks that a price cap is good news for borrowers should have a thought for those many people who will be turned down for loans because the best lenders will have to reject those with the worst credit records.
We support a cap that allows the industry to operate profitably with the right protection in place for vulnerable people. With new regulations and tighter affordability checks, critics must now face up to the fact that most people use, need and like short-term credit and the measures in place are more stringent than for any other form of consumer credit.

We marched this past Sunday, June 8th, 2014 in the National Puerto Rican Day Parade. The weather was gorgeous and rain missed us by one day. It was a successful event with Andre Faria of SixCentz providing our Float with Freestyle artists Jill Tirrell, Julio Mena and Trilogy. We also had a DJ who entertained the lively crowd in between sets down 5th Avenue.
Our Princess this year was Victoria Castillo, daughter of Cecilia Raymond from Local 157. Princess Victoria was at the head of the New York City & Vicinity District Council of Carpenters wearing a lovely baby blue gown which complimented the navy blue t-shirts that were donated by the District Council. She was chauffeured on a convertible driven by Alejandro Rodriquez of Local 157. As she waved to the mass of spectators she sported a sash with the words "UBC Latino Club" creatively drawn by artist Laurie Peruyero.
In attendance from the District Council was EST Joseph Geiger and Vice-President Michael Cavanaugh. Also in attendance was Mitch Sonntag, President of Local 157. We even had visitors from our Brotherhood in Boston. Pictures of event were taken by Julie East and her associate, Morgan Clarke from the DC and other members, family and friends who either marched with us or were in the crowd along the parade route that spanned from 44th Street to 79th Street.

On Sunday, May 4th several of our members attended the TD Five Boro Bike Tour. This year we dedicated the Tour to our founding UBC Latino Bike Team member Louis Delgado. The ride started at 8am sharp at Battery Park in Manhattan and touched all 5 Boroughs of New York City and ended at Fort Wadsworth, Gateway National Recreation Area in Staten Island. In the end, there was a Bike Tour Festival full of entertainment, food, giveaways, and all kinds of exhibits and other activities.
We would like to thank the Volunteers and Riding Marshals who got up early for the 6am set-up to help make this event successful. These members are Carlos Pereda, Antonio Coyoc, Chuck Reyes, Maritza Rivera, BeBe Brown, Juan Gonzalez, Cecilia Raymond, Erik Molina, Christina Perez, Eric, Ruben City Carpenter, Eddie Bracken & Eddie Herrero.
We would also like to thank our Sponsors: District Council, Local 157, Local 1556, Local 740, Local 45, Local 2287, Alex Rosado from Rosado, Checanova & Brasali, and Randi Segal. Their support has been tremendous and is greatly appreciated.
The Day After…
At our May 5th Meeting we raffled off a BlackDiamond Shimano equip 21 Speed Mountain Bike. The lucky winner was ticket #0576 held by Natalia Lee Gonzalez, daughter of Juan Gonzalez of Local 157. Proceeds will go to Memorial Sloan Kettering Children's Cancer Unit. A representative will be joining us at our June 2nd Meeting to receive the donation and give the Latino Club a Merit Award for participating.
Today we will have an Open Forum to discuss any activities you would like to see go on in the club. We have an open door policy and welcome any new ideas and suggestions, which would generate a positive image and outcome for the club.
Our communications Committee is looking for volunteers to help us with event organizing, telephone banking, advertise the club by posting newsletters and flyers at job sites and locals; help with members meetings and with raffles and any other jobs for the benefit of the club.

Shumlin names Ryerson to open House seatStaff Report | November 09,2013
In this Wednesday, Nov. 7, 2013, photo, Marjorie Ryerson is interviewed after learning that she was appointed to the Vermont Legislature by Gov. Peter Shumlin in Randolph, Vt. Ryerson a 40-year resident of Randolph Village and a select board member, is a poet, writer and editor, and has been a professor at two of Vermont's state colleges. The appointment of the Democrat means that for the first time, a majority caucus in the Vermont Legislature has more women than men.(AP Photo/ The Herald of Randolph / Bob Eddy)MONTPELIER For the first time in the history of the state, women will outnumber men in a major-party caucus of the Legislature.
Gov. Peter Shumlin announced Friday that hell appoint Marjorie Ryerson, a former Castleton State College professor, to the House seat formerly held by Rep. Larry Townsend, a Democrat who died after an illness earlier this year.
Ryerson, a 40-year Randolph resident and a Select Board member who is a poet, writer and editor, beat out two other candidates forwarded to Shumlin by the local Democratic committee.
It was a difficult choice because there were three exceptional candidates, Shumlin said. I am excited to make this appointment, and I look forward to working with Marjorie in the upcoming legislative session. I know she will do a great job representing the district and working for all Vermonters.
Ryersons appointment means women will hold a majority of the 96 House seats occupied by Democrats, the first time thats happened in a caucus of either major party in either body of the Legislature, according to the administration.
It is both amazing and sobering that we should celebrate such a milestone only now in 2013, said House Speaker Shap Smith. But it is a reflection of the tremendous strides that women have made in the last 30 years and is something that all Vermonters can and should celebrate.
Ryerson taught writing and photography at Castleton State College from 1991 to 2005. She has been a writer and editor for a number of Vermont publications, including Vermont Life, The Times Argus and the Burlington Free Press.MORE IN Vermont NewsMONTPELIER A lawsuit filed Wednesday against the state Department for Children and Families...

There have been a small pause in my sewing activity, but luckily here comes the end of the world and I desperately needed a new dress to celebrate it accordinly.
I liked the simple cut of the dress that opens possibilities for future variations. I was looking for emerald green fabric like in the magazine but could only find this one in pine green colour. I had to adjust the pattern for a better fit. Dress is with lining.

1.7/5 rDev -54.4%
This was a 1997 harvest bottle tasted 10/7/04. This poured a murky brown with no head and no lace. Smell is sweet with a strong alcohol and vinegar scent coming from it. At this point I was pretty sure this would taste like crap. Sour, strong alcohol and vinous is about all I can say to describe the taste. A bit of sweetness some where but not enough to keep this one from puckering me up with every sip. Mouthfeel was okay and drinkability was non-existent. Maybe the years didnt take kindly to this one, but this is the first beer that made me involuntarily twitch with almost every sip. Hopefully I can come across a much younger bottle next time.

Bought this at World of Beer off Gulf to Bay in Clearwater Fl, last week didn't really look at the bottle till I got home. Come to find out it is harvest 2007 10.8 Abv. Some age to it but its a barleywine it should age well for a few years right? Not in this case.
Poured into a pint glass, some small amounts of head. Deep amber color hazy, pours like it is really thick.
Wow that is awful smell... Smells like liquor almost like a weird variety of sweet Jack Daniles. Overly sweet smell!
Even taste's like JD!! sweet as hell ugh got a sour whisky like after taste to it. Drain pour!!!
The few sips I took left me feeling like I had takein JD shot all night. Not a good beer!

Poured a dark red with a small white head that subsided quickly. The aromewas of fruity esters and s touch of alcohol. The taste was not very good at all. It was sweet but in the finish there was a strange lingering bitterness that was unpleasent. The body was light for an ale of this gravity. This barleywine needs to be aged at least two more years.

Weirdest beer I ever had. the herb used is rosemary and I can't imagine why one would spoil an othrwise good beer with this herb. I dumped my beer down the drain as the taste was too funky for my tastebuds.

This actually started out okay, with a dark brown color with a hint of ruby, and a thin tan head that dissipated quickly. Initial aroma was malty sweet dark fruit, as was the first couple sips. THEN THE ALCOHOL GRABBED HOLD!! From about the fourth sip on, all I could taste and smell was alcohol, blended with a thick sweet body. Try as I could, I just could not find any other taste or nose, and ended up pouring this one out.

A 12 oz bottle from a trade with Boolshot.
A: The barleywine is a deep copper red, very hazy, with a small white head and no lace.
S: The aroma is almost nonexistent, regardless of temperature of the beer. A very grainy, unsweet malt scent manages to waft up but it is weak.
T: The flavor is grainy malts. The body is very light, lacking the intense complexity and malty overload of a good barleywine. On top of that, there are no hops to be found. As the ale warms, it takes on a slightly medicinal malt flavor with some residual sweetness, but it is still lacking for hops.
M: The mouthfeel is bland, lacking a memorable hop or malt body.
D: I would not grab this one again, it seems to come up short in every category.

Vintage 2010 12-ounce bottle poured into a DFH snifter. A viscous-looking beer for sure; looks kinda like hazy sorghum. Just a whiff of foam on top, but periodic swirls confirm that there's not shortage of carbonation here.
Plenty of toffee and caramel in the nose, with light grape, raisin and baked apple notes. I'm not sure when this was bottled, but even if it was the last day of 2010, there's still a surprisingly potent dose of bitterness in this stuff. Earthy and burnt flavors join in to provide a counterpoint to the sweetness. The fruitiness isn't as pronounced as I'd guessed it would be, and something's a little lacking here. Instead of a coating, lingering warm feel, it almost finishes clean and a tad on the thin side. This could be quite nice with a few tweaks, I reckon.

Light red and brown pour, all kinds of chunky yeast and whatnot floaties all over this, does not look attractive whatsoever, the lack of head didn't help either. Aroma, heavy on the alcohol, a little bit of bitter sugarness came in afterwards.
Taste, whoo, still very hot, yeasty grittiness on the teeth, ample sweetness and huge bitterness still on this one. Tough to pull much in the way of taste out of this, the alcohol is just omniprescient or whatever that word is. Had em fresh, had em aged, just not a fan at any stage of this, despite liking many Mad River brews. Seemed to be lacking the necessary malt additions to soak up the alcohol presence.

Received this one as an extra in a recent trade. Having lived in Northern California for a while, I have had this one a few times in the past, and have never cared for it. This bottle brought back memories of those long gone memories.
Poured a hazy dark brown color with a light brown head. Big aromas of spices and booze. On the palate, full bodied, with way too much spice and a hot finish. Way too spicy for me.

Pours a cloudy orange amber with minimal head and a fairly good amount of floaties. The aroma is very strong and sweet from a distance, but there's a definite malt smell. Up close, the smell becomes more fruity, having a definite apricot note atop the malty sweetness. The taste is like moldy,wet straw that has been sugar coated and doused with rubbing alcohol. High amounts of fusel type alcohols in this one, even after 4 years. A strong bitterness emerges on the finish. Mouthfeel is average for a barleywine. Drinkability is not good. Drinking this brings to mind cokes' review of Doggie Claws, with his apocolypse now theme and hints of napalm. The strong alcohol in this baby makes it a killer. I may try to light it and use it as a torch. Hoping for a rare gem on this purchase and I got burned.

Poured from a 12oz bottle into a Dogfish Head Signature glass. From a "Celebrating 2008 Harvest" bottle.
A: Cloudy medium brown color. Aggressive pour leads to a thin ring of head that disappears to a cloudy smattering of foam on the top of the beer. Lacing is thick and consistent.
S: Booze, sugar, caramel, sugar and booze. This one is hot and you can smell it. Not much hop presence.
T: The taste has backed down some (not a lot) from the nose but the sugar certainly did not. It's sweet and relatively unbalanced. End of the taste is boozy.
M: Little carbonation, pretty thin body but man the abv (which is listed as 9.1% on my bottle) leaves a hot aftertaste that's hard to shake.
O: Not a really terrible brew, but not really great either. Probably not a brew that I'll seek out again.

12 oz. bottle I received as an extra sometime back. 2008 vintage poured into a Weyerbacher tulip...
A - Pours a pretty cloudy and murky brownish color - kind of mud like. A half finger of tan head forms and quickly recedes to a collar. Not the most inviting looking beer.
S - Brown sugar, caramal, and, surprisingly, a good bit of alcohol comes right through. Malts, and some wheat like aromas come out too. The alcohol aroma really detracts from this so far.
T - Really sweet malts, and quite bitter out front along with a lot of alcohol, which is really not hidden well at all. Really quite one note for me.
M - Not much carbonation and quite thin body. Not anything to write home about.
O - Eh. Nothing special. It's not the worst beer I've ever had, but it is quite far from good in my opinion.

I'm on a mission to stop trading (stop laughing) and to appreciate my local selection, so I grabbed a 4-pack of this at my local store. I enjoyed the bourbon-barrel aged version I tried at Beer Revolution recently, so I thought the time was ripe to give the base beer a shot.
Review of the 2010 vintage, according to the label (?). When I picked this up in 2012, I was told it was the latest batch. Odd.
A: Pours a ruby-amber body that glows more on the reddish spectrum when held against the light. It pours with a generous beige head that retains fairly well for a beer of its gravity, eventually collapsing into a thin collar.
S: The aroma isn't particularly strong, but it hits the barleywine notes I'd expect: slight notes of grape, caramel, toffee. There isn't much depth to the aroma.
T: Slight roast and earth. I pick up grape (oxidation?) as well as caramel and toffee. Moderate bitterness that balances the sweeter flavors. The finish is dry, which is interesting, but it accentuates how thin the beer feels (see below).
M: This is light for the style; it leaves me wanting a bit more heft. No alcohol, which is a plus, but the thin-ness is a detriment to the beer.
O: This is surprisingly mediocre. I say surprisingly because the barrel-aged version was truly outstanding (I even made a second trip out to Beer Revolution to grab another glass). It was worth trying, but I don't think I'll pick it up again.

2007 Bottle; Sampled October 2008
A vigorous pour into my 25cl tulip glass produces a tightly beaded, initially three-finger thick, light tan colored head. The beer is a clear amber color that shows a brilliantly clear, fully red tinged, copper color when held up to the light. The aroma is a heady mix of caramelized malt and sticky hop notes. At first notes of toffee, sticky crystal malts, brown sugar glazed grapefruit zest and tangerine are most noticeable, but soon an herbal hop notes starts to play a much more prominent role. Aromas of pine needles and a grassy herbal note become more noticeable as the beer warms. There is lots of biscuit like malt notes towards the end as well as the warm, slightly spicy alcohol character one would expect to find in a beer of this strength.
Thick and viscous feeling up front, this is balanced somewhat by a biting, herbal, green bitterness and hop astringency in the finish that really lingers on the tongue for quite some time. While there is a huge amount of malt here, the hop character is definitely the more dominant note right now. Hot alcohol flavors towards the finish seem to exacerbate the harsh hop notes. Lots of caramelized grain notes seem to mostly get drown out by the herbal hop notes and the vodka like alcohol character in the finish; at times some notes of toffee sneaks through as does some light berry notes and a touch of citrus.
This beer will definitely still age for quite some time. The hop character is still a bit rough right now and the hot alcohol notes could definitely use some mellowing out. I expected this to get better as it warmed up, but it actually got worse, more hot and more harshly hoppy. This really ended up being quite a big disappointment; it really needs at least another two years, if not five, before it might start to get drinkable.

Two 5 ounce samples at Naja's Place 1st Barleywine Festival in Redondo Beach both yesterday and the day before, another one of the brews from option three, 2008 vintage
A-Color is medium brown with some red highlights, 1/4 inch creamy beige head that stays around for a minute or so, weak retention, minimal lacing
S-Pine makes up the hoppiness, burned accents, roasted scents, bready malt, charred toffee, booze, caramel, and lots of weird smelling fruits
T-The hop character is dominating and needs age to cool that down, there is also way too much booze in here while it is fresh, starts off with grains, fades into caramel, then booze and hoppy flavors, toffee and citrus come the surface later on but barely, it seems like the tastes come and go and never really work together, brew was all over the place and was in need of some balance somewhere
M-Moderate level of carbonation, thin to medium body, sweet, roasty, and dry mouthfeel, taste lingers a little while
D-Heavy on the stomach, alcohol is not hidden, taste gets old after a few sips, gets overly sweet pretty quickly, not excatly inviting
I did not expect much out of this beer, therefore I was less disappointed, weakest barleywine I tried at Naja's during the festival and yes I had them all, it is cool that you can buy six packs of this stuff when it is released but I do not think I would, might be worth trying

2007 edition. 12oz bottle poured into a pint glass. Pours an orangish-amber color with a creamy off-white head. The aroma is sweet and fruity with malt and toffee and a pretty strong amount of alcohol. The taste is pretty sweet and malty up front giving way to the hops and a warming effect from the alcohol in the finish. Overall, this is a decent barleywine that definitely needs a few years to mellow out as it is a little rough around the edges fresh. I will stash a couple of these away and re-visit after it has had a couple years to mellow.

A - Very deep purple in color. Head slowly rises a creamy cream color. Decent lacing too. Good clarity.
S - Lots of raisin/grapes. Smells a little bit sugary and cotton-candy esque. A little flat on the nose.
T - Missing some serious complexity. Very bland, not what I was expecting from MRBC. Lots of strange bitterness with heavy heat notes.
M - Great carbonation, weird suagry-ness.
O - This brew did not measure up to MRBC's stigma... Very disappointing. Recommended, but not worth a hunt. Very average.

Nice garnet color with a slight head the quickly goes. A 2005 bottle conditioned properly. The smell is sweet malt with caramel tones but is backed up by large piney and spicy citrus hops and a bit of sulfur giving a medicine like quality to it. The flavor continues with a large chunk of bitterness but there is this tanic medicine flavor that digs at the tonuge almost numbing it to the flavors of the malt and blooming hops. This might straighten out in a year or two. The alcohol is well hidden and it has a good mouthfeel but it isn't too drinkable at this point.

2.93/5 rDev -21.4%
Cloudy butterscotch in color, thick and slow-pouring, with a short, tan head. Lacing is good.
Aroma is candy -- butterscotch and caramel.
Taste is just as sweet, even sweeter. Caramel, toffee, hint of coffee. Slightly burning in the mouth, and thinner than one would expect, only slightly chewy. Aftertaste is an odd combination of hops and malt. Pungent, slightly sour, dry and astringent.
Not the best example of a barleywine. Aftertaste is too sour, taste is too thin and cloying.

A county official in North Carolina says he will accept marriage license applications from same-sex couples and seek an opinion from North Carolina's top lawyer.
A 2012 amendment to North Carolina's Constitution forbids same-sex couples from marrying. But Buncombe County Register of Deeds Drew Reisinger said Monday he will hold the licenses and then ask state Attorney General Roy Cooper for legal advice.
Reisinger said he had been forced to deny same-sex marriage licenses to "upstanding citizens," and he felt like that was not fair.
However, Cooper's spokeswoman Noelle Talley said in a written statement "these marriage licenses cannot be issued."
Reisinger's announcement came hours after Cooper revealed he supports same-sex marriage. But Cooper also said his personal views won't prevent him from defending North Carolina's ban in court.
