The Dumfries and Galloway region
Just over the English border lies Dumfries and Galloway in the west and the Scottish Borders in the east. These two very distinctive areas have retained a totally rural and tranquil atmosphere where visitors can enjoy a wonderful holiday away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. In fact here you'll find miles of beautiful untouched countryside and striking coastlines; a great place for outdoors holidays, fishing, walking, sailing and cycling. Coastal and beach strolls and small fishing harbours waiting to be explored. The capital city of Scotland, Edinburgh, is probably on most people's 'must visit' list and with good reason. The city is renowned for its magnificent architecture and historical buildings, which include Edinburgh Castle and numerous museums and galleries. Today Edinburgh is a thriving modern city with world class shops and restaurants and lots of traditional atmospheric pubs.
Sharing its borders with Ayrshire in the north and Cumbria to the south, Dumfries and Galloway is a beautiful region of Scotland renowned for its rugged scenery as well as its many famed artists and writers. One of the most notable is famous poet Robert Burns who lived in Dumfries through the latter stages of his life. Here you can take a look around the places he once lived, there's Ellisland Farm as well as the house he lived at on Burns Street or the Globe Inn where he used to spend time with a drink, you can even sit in his favourite chair still there over 200 years later! The area is steeped in history and there are a number of castles which are open to visitors, each set in some amazing scenery. Caerlaverock, Britain's only triangular castle has stood since the 13th century and boasts a large moat and imposing gatehouse which are all waiting to be explored. There are a whole host of other activities to explore here with the Galloway forest park being a massive hit with both cyclists and walkers alike. Being part bordered by sea as well, Dumfries and Galloway has some fantastic coastal routes and sandy beaches which are all waiting to be discovered.

Bill O'Reilly targets Al Gore for selling Current TV to Al-Jazeera
The conservative TV host questions the sale of Gore's cable news network to the pan-Arab broadcaster.
Conservative television host Bill O'Reilly is condemning former U.S. Vice President Al Gore as a "hypocrite," citing a report that Gore wanted to sell Current TV, the cable network Gore helped establish, to Al-Jazeera before higher taxes kicked in on Jan. 1.
O'Reilly, whose top-rated "O'Reilly Factor" airs on Fox News, cited a story in the New York Times that said Gore and his partners were eager to complete the deal before year-end because of the higher tax rate.
That comes just two months after Gore told Reuters he felt citizens should "do their fair share," O'Reilly noted. "I guess that means selling assets at the lower capital gains rate?" he added.
But O'Reilly's not the only one taking aim at Gore for selling to Al-Jazeera, the pan-Arab broadcaster backed by the oil-rich country of Qatar -- which O'Reilly described as an "anti-American network."
Gore, who shared the 2007 Nobel Peace Prize for his fight against climate change, stands to gross about $70 million from the sale, according to Bloomberg. Gore reportedly has a 20% stake in Current TV.
"It's reeking with irony," Jeff Sonnenfeld, senior associate dean at the Yale School of Management, tells Bloomberg. "It seems to be at least a paradox in terms of his positions on sustainability and geopolitics."
The estimated profit is a huge jump from the maximum net worth of $1.7 million reported by Gore when he ran for president in 1999, the article points out.
Al-Jazeera, whose English-language version has struggled to gain a foothold in the U.S., might face an uphill battle to see a turnaround with American audiences.
Immediately after the purchase, Time Warner Cable shut down Current TV's programming, cutting off access to 12 million homes.
But Time Warner appeared to reconsider on Thursday, noting that it would keep "an open mind" as the network develops. Al-Jazeera, which is reportedly paying $500 million for the network, plans to shut down Current's programming and start a new English-language channel via Current's distribution.
More on Money Now
Selling before taxes went up was just smart, like anyone else should have done if they had a capital gain to realize and face the higher rate this year. Paying your fair share does not preclude taking advantage of legal opportunities to reduce your tax burden.

BofA and Wells Fargo up, PNC down, in Charlotte deposits
- Adam O'Daniel
- Finance Editor- Charlotte Business Journal
- Email | Twitter | Google+
Bank of America and Wells Fargo tightened their grip on Charlotte-area deposits over the past year, according to new data the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp. released Tuesday.
Long the dominant big banks here, Charlotte-based BofA and Wells (formerly Charlotte-based Wachovia) both added billions of dollars in local deposits from June 30, 2011, to June 30 of this year.
BofA ranks No. 1. It now holds $161.07 billion in Charlotte metro-area deposits, or 80.1% of the market. That's up from $127.93 billion, or 79.6% of the market last year. As usual, those numbers are inflated because the bank is headquartered here, which means it reports some national deposits locally. Still, the bank's numbers followed a strong growth trend, up more than 25%.
Likewise, Wells checks in at No. 2 after strong growth. The San Francisco-based bank holds $25.78 billion, or 12.8% of Charlotte's deposits, up from $18.3 billion a year ago, 11.4% of local deposits.
Rounding out the top five, BB&T, Fifth Third Bank and SunTrust Bank, respectively, all experienced deposit growth.
Click here for a slideshow of the Charlotte market's 10 largest banks, as ranked by deposits.
The biggest loser over the past year was Pittsburgh-based PNC Bank. PNC slipped to No. 8 in Charlotte metro deposits from No. 7 in 2011. The FDIC reports PNC held $471.26 million in local deposits (0.23% of the market) as of June 30. That's down from $1.07 billion in Charlotte metro deposits a year ago (0.66% of the market) when the bank was still part of RBC Bank's franchise.
It's important to note PNC just entered the Charlotte market in March, when it acquired Raleigh-based RBC. And company spokesman Fred Solomon explains the big shift is attributed to merger machinations. "First, PNC shifted corporate client deposits from Charlotte to other locations, including Raleigh and Pittsburgh," he says in an email. "Second, as per our agreement, Royal Bank of Canada retained the accounts of Canadian citizens that had been served by RBC Bank (USA) out of Charlotte."

Why Facebook Advertising Is a Brilliant Option to Increase Sales
Posted on October 17th 2013
Most online stores get their traffic from affiliate marketing channels. Another major source of traffic is natural search engine traffic. Many online store owners also opt for Google PPC advertisements to funnel potential buyers to their websites.
When it comes to driving valuable traffic to websites, social media is often talked of as an important channel. However, a recent survey by Monetate shows that social media sites aren't sending much direct traffic to online stores.
Social Media and Ecommerce Sales
According the survey results based on millions of online transactions, social media brings less traffic (1.55%) than email marketing campaigns (2.82%). Search accounts for 31.43%, way beyond what social media offers. Also, only 0.71% of queries from social sites convert!
When you keep in mind the fact that people spend 23% of their time on Internet on social media sites, you will realize that the potential of using social media for driving online sales has not been fully exploited. The reason for the low amount of traffic and low conversions is because businesses have not been able to formulate the right models for leveraging social media.
How Facebook Advertisements Help
With Facebook Ads, it has now become possible for online businesses to get powerful leads from the biggest social media site. Here, we take a look at some of the most exciting facts about Facebook Ads that highlight the possibilities of Facebook advertising for ecommerce sales.
# Customized Targeting
Most online stores offer products in a niche category. If they can target their advertisements to a specific group of visitors, there is a good chance that they can get high number of valuable visitors on their website. General social media posts and messages for ecommerce do not have much impact, because they are not targeted. You can target your Facebook advertisements very precisely.
You can vet users on the basis of gender, age, location, specific interests of the users (sports, fashion, music, etc.), relationship status and several other factors! This means that whether you go for cost per click or paid impressions, you are bound to get valuable and interested users on your website.
# Remarket your Products
Facebook allows advertisers to remind the visitors to buy your products. Most people do not buy products the first time they see them – people check out products, think whether they can buy them, make sure that they can afford to buy and then eventually buy it.
Remarketing through Facebook Exchange helps you to remind the customers to buy specific products from your website. In addition to persuading hesitant customers to buy the product, this feature also provides you with the opportunity to promote your company page.
# Different Types of Advertisements and Pricing Options
Facebook offers the ability to set bids based on either Cost Per Click (CPC) or Cost Per 1,000 Impressions (CPM). You can also set daily or lifetime budget according to your business criteria. Also, you are not limited to just one kind of advertisement. Depending on what suits your product best, you can create Sponsored Ads, Sponsored Results, Page Posts, Marketplace Ads and Promoted Posts.
# Conversion Tracking
Facebook allows advertise to keep track of important actions people take on their website after they click or view ads. Advertisers can use a conversion tracking pixel to create a JavaScript code snippet. This makes it very easy for online store owners to measure the effect of their advertising campaigns. This feature helps you calculate the exact ROI on the advertisement and helps you find identify elements that stand in the way of higher conversion.
# Easy to Create and Manage Ads
The Facebook ads campaign manager offers more than enough information about all the points related to managing multiple advertisements on Facebook. Also, it is easy to design and create advertisements using the simple and intuitive tools provided by Facebook. When you do not have a huge advertising budget, don't have too much time to create ads and want to create and manage ads on your own, these features are priceless.
Wrapping up
Most businesses have seen social media as a useful tool for branding and promotion. But direct visits or sales from Facebook do not yet form a large part of the total visits that ecommerce stores get. We feel that a judicious use of Facebook ads will help online store managers and other businesses get more valuable traffic from social media.
The ability to hand pick an audience on Facebook is a valuable feature that business can take advantage of.
Hi Kinjal,
I like your mention on Facebook conversion tracking.
From our experience with our fashion retailer clients, we have noticed the impact of sales generated from certain Facebook post is pretty consistent.

Appreciated for valuable content. Well no doubt facebook ads have emerged as a popular and cost-effective way to promote a small business online. According to recent research from Merchant circle 22% of small businesses have used Facebook Ads, and 65% say they would use Facebook Ads again, citing ease and flexibility as the top reasons to run another campaign

Zones: 4-11.
Harvest: Everbearer.
Fruit: Yellow, very sweet berries are large, juicy and firm.
Facts of note: Winter hardiness makes it a good choice for northern gardens. Vigorous grower. Crops July–Sept. Excellent for fresh eating, canning, and preserving. Identical to red raspberries in all but color.
Cane berries prefer a deep, well–drained, fertile soil and typically bear fruit on 2–year old wood with everbearers producing on first–year wood. They thrive in most soil types. Cane berries are versatile and hardy in the coldest climates where other fruits fail. Plant late winter to early spring. Space 2'–3' in a row with 8'–10' between rows.
I received 5 healthy canes promptly that were packaged thoughtfully and planted them the same day. I am confident they will thrive because all 5 had great root systems and were full of green buds. I am very happy with the customer service as well because they called to ask to change the shipping method to get the plants here quicker for no extra cost to me! I will be ordering my plants from here from now on because I know I am getting quality with protected,correctly packaged materials.Review by Ashley (on 4/21/12)
I have 6-7 different varieties of rapberryin my Napa CA garden box. While they all did very well, the Fall Gold was the favorite of my wife and myself. The berries were large, sweet, firm, and abundant, lasting well into the Fall. Evenings would find us standing around the berry patch enjoying their sweet flavor.
After losing their leave to the cold December nights, the Fall Gold rasperries produced the stoutest canes of all my raspberries. I am ordering more even as I type.

Hmm, it certainly sounds like I can reduce the running time by calculating connections while pathfinding rather than before, as you guys said.
Perhaps I should have mentioned some more details: the player character walks around a 2D area with rectangle obstacles that don't move (or rather, very few obstacles are able to move around, and they're always player-sized or smaller, so if we collide with something, we can just run the pathfinding again). The reason why I said that the rectangles move around a lot is that the player can only see a certain area of the map (which is huge), and because the player is constantly moving whenever it paths around, rectangles move around, get placed in the area of sight, fall out of the area of sight, etc, all the time. However, while pathfinding, they're definitely mostly stationary. The player is the only agent that needs to pathfind. Also, when I pathfind, I'm only looking to go from the starting point to wherever I want to go to, no more. The environment to path in is typically medium-sized (I know that's a poor description but I'm not sure how else to explain it). Also, the rectangle obstacles are allowed to overlap each other, which I hope will not affect the algorithm (at least, it doesn't seem to me like it should affect a great deal).
There's also something else I should have added. Sometimes, it's not possible to find a path from A to B (ie, when B is inside an obstacle or enclosed by rectangle obstacles). Would I have to search through all points, then?

Wedding Play
Steppenwolf Theatre
1650 N. Halsted Chicago
After two and a half years together, Chicago playwright Adam Mace leaves his partner Tom (an actor in his theatre company) to marry Thalia, his best friend, star of his plays, and soon-to-be mother. Soon after the wedding, Thalia and the baby die under mysterious circumstances. When Tom is cast in Adam's new play, Wedding Play, he quickly learns that art is imitating life and that the death of Adam's wife and child may have been no accident. As the play-within-a-play unfolds on stage, everyone's secrets come to light, but the biggest question of all remains until the final act.

Chicago Tribune - Somewhat Recommended
"...Wedding Play" is not exactly a roman a clef. Rosen doesn't pen thinly veiled portraits of Chicago's artistic characters -- he's too shrewd a player for that. But if you've followed the theater here for a while, you'll smell hints of the travails of the ambitious ensemble members of Lookingglass Theatre, the earliest partners in About Face Theatre, Rosen's own company and the producer."
Read Full Review
Chicago Sun Times - Recommended
"...Though I don't buy many of the more melodramatic aspects of Rosen's story, the scenes capturing the relationship between Adam and Tom, as well as the gay man-straight "girlfriend" connection between Adam and Thalia, are spot on in both the writing and acting."
Read Full Review
SouthtownStar - Somewhat Recommended
"...Unclear and tedious, this work stretches on for what seems like a long time. The only part to recommend is the performance of Joe Dempsey as the cynical and opportunistic theater director. That is because he plays the only character whose motivations are clear and understandable and because Dempsey is an exceptionally riveting actor."
Pioneer Press - Highly Recommended
"...The play generates so much suspense in Act I, that it seems impossible to resolve the plot in the second act. But Rosen and a superb cast rise to the challenge."
Read Full Review
Chicago Reader - Somewhat Recommended
"...Sean Cooper as Adam, Lesley Bevan as Thalia, Benjamin Sprunger as Tom, and Craig Spidle as Adam's perplexed father are excellent. But the increasingly complex plot grows wearisome, and the dated, bourgeois showbiz cliches and shallow emotional insights are surprising considering About Face's track record for cutting-edge work."
NewCity Chicago - Somewhat Recommended
"...The ensemble's performances are uniformily strong and sharp; standout performances include Sean Cooper as the mysterious, off-kilter playwright, Benjamin Sprunger as his disgruntled ex, and Jowe Dempsey as the fiercely ambitious, menacing director desperate for his shot at the big time."
Windy City Times - Recommended
"...the cast assembled by Rosen in his capacity as director exhibits the traction of rock-climbers, retaining their knife-edged precision throughout the multiple repetitions of identicalon the surface, anywayscenes mandated by Mahfouz/Rosens text and fearlessly charging over the fourth wall to blur the distinction between the spectators in the Steppenwolf Garage and those in the play-within-the-play. And they do it all with such high-artifice aplomb that its a pleasure to watch them even as we founder in the midst of our confusion."
Read Full Review
Chicago Free Press - Somewhat Recommended
"...Happily, Rosens staging narrates his twists and turns with confidence and conviction. Coopers dangerously ambitious playwright, Sprungers understandably angry jilted partner and Bevans reluctant wife create a tense triangle, even if the details arent as believable as the big picture. Veteran actor Craig Spidle has some moments of terrible truth as Adams father discovers his own private tragedies exhibited on stage. Joe Dempsey plays the overly ambitious director for whom bad news is just another promotional opportunity. Kareem Bandealy brings dignity to the histrionic role of Adams stage killerand surrogate? Yes, the ending ties things up, alas, but its at the cost of a Hollywood cliche."
Read Full Review
EpochTimes - Recommended
"...Staged at the Steppenwolf Garage Theatre as part of the Visiting Company Initiative, Mr. Rosen uses this intimate stage to make this piece work. This is a small venue and with some very clever set design by Meghan Raham, creative lighting by Christopher Ash and Josh Horvath and Rick Sims sound design, the picture comes through clearly. But it is the script and the strong cast that makes this mystery indeed, a mystery where we as the audience cannot anticipate the ending."
Time Out Chicago - Somewhat Recommended
"...Beyond its self-aggrandizing (the writer protagonist is an irresistible genius whose only flaws are obsessive devotion and an inability to see his own gifts), the writingmuch of it colorless soliloquiesis far below the About Faces gilded standard. Theres swell acting, as per usual in Rosens work. But spiritually speaking, this thing needs a rubber chicken."

ChicagoCritic - Highly Recommended
"...Wedding Play is a sophisticated mystery/comedy/drama that is so refreshingly different that it deserves a large audience. Eric Rosen shows why he is a first-rate storyteller and dramatist."

Cape Neddick House Rental Photos and Description
We are in the process of upgrading and redoing the house for 2014 season.
A dramatic contemporary home with panoramic views on the rockbound coast of Maine. This four-story home overlooks the Bay of Maine, and a private pebble beach is just steps away. Full of pleasant surprises, this property was the site of the grand Passaconaway Inn, a destination for generations of East coast vacationers and is part of our community of York Cliffs. Wander down to the Cape Neddick sandy beach with a view of Nubble Light house and watch or launch your own kayak or boat. From the windows and decks of this house you can watch the lobster men hauling in their traps. Listen to the rumble of the natural pebble beach with the ebb and flow of the tides, and the crashing of the waves. Dine on the freshest lobster on one of the decks or on the pebble beach. Enjoy!
- Suitability:
- children welcome
- non smoking only
- pets considered
- Minimum Age Limit for Renters
- Long-term Renters Welcome
Nancy Monks
We are year- round residents of Cape Neddick and live close by enabling us to provide information and help to
our guests to have a wonderful vacation experience. We love living here and want to help others to enjoy all that the area has to offer. The beauty of the morning sunrise and the evening sunsets are experienced through the vast expanse of windows
which face the ocean. We love living here and hope all who come to stay leave with a similar feeling
We have been vacationing here in the York area since 1970. We chose Cape Neddick to be our year round location five years ago. Cape Neddick offers the perfect location for summer vacations. The house offers a unique ability to accommodate more than one family which makes it a perfect place for the family reunion. It's proximity to beaches within walking distance makes it especially convenient.
The private pebble beach available to our renters is a special place for that quiet afternoon of watching the tide come in. It's proximity to children's activities such as the wild animal park, amusement rides, arcade and gift shops makes it a family friendly location.

How we change what others think, feel, believe and do
Impression Management
Disciplines > Job-finding > Impression Management
Description | Discussion | So what?
Impression management is the deliberate 'bending' of the truth in order to make a favorable impression. Managing impression includes deliberate use of any or all of:
To some extent, we are constantly managing impressions of others in most social circumstances and of course we want to look good in interviews. However there are two question that may be asked:
Impression management not only happens, it is expected to happen. This can cause a dilemma where the interviewer either marks you down for not managing impression sufficiently (for example not being smart enough or not being assertive enough) or managing it too much (low-cut dresses, boasting, exaggeration).
A particular dilemma is where the interviewer expects a certain degree of exaggeration or fabrication and downgrades what everyone says. If you are truthful and everyone else exaggerates, then you can lose out.
The truth of the story (as research has shown) is that what they think of you as a person has a surprisingly significant effect on whether or not you get the job, and can be even more important even than qualifications and experience.
Research has also shown that if you have to own up to some embarrassment, it is better to tell about this up-front rather than delaying it, as the early admission gives an impression of openness and honesty.
The reverse is true for impressive achievements, when it is better to mention them later (and so appear modest -- another desirable characteristic).
So what?
Do manage the impression you make, but do not over-do it (and do not under-do it either).

- S: "New Balance shoes were recommended to me by my podiatrist. I already have 2 other pairs (different styles) that fit well and give me the support that I need since having 2 different fractures and need to wear a brace. I also like the slightly higher style and the colors."
Jonny asked: How heavy is it? Light weight?
- Wanda: "These are surprisingly lightweight and very comfortable! I wouldn't wear a heavy sneaker. I also like the way they look, too!"

Former New York Telephone Co. worker Howard Cortland "Corty" Bishop died Monday. He was 88.
A native of Southampton, Bishop, father to Rep. Tim Bishop, D-Southampton, died at his winter home in Naples, Fla. His health had deteriorated in recent years due to a neurological disorder, a representative for Rep. Bishop's office said.
Bishop served as a Medical Corpsman in the U.S. Navy during World War II and briefly during the Korean War. Following that, he worked for New York Telephone Co. in various capacities for 34 years, sometimes working 80 to 90 hour weeks in order to support his family. Upon retiring from New York Telephone, Bishop worked for a decade at Catena's Market in Southampton.
Bishop is survived by Catherine, his wife of 65 years whom he met in high school, his five children, 11 grandchildren and two great grandchildren.
A wake will be held today at O'Connell Funeral Home in Southampton from 2 to 4 p.m. and 7 to 9 p.m. A funeral Mass will be held Friday at 10 a.m. at Basilica of the Sacred Hearts of Jesus and Mary Roman Catholic Church in Southampton.

Addingham woman Fiona Mann raises funds to thank hospital
11:42am Thursday 13th March 2014 in News
Addingham woman Fiona Mann, who is battling her way back to recovery from a spinal stroke, will undertake a sponsored swim tomorrow.
Fiona, who was taken ill last summer, plans to swim a mile – or 64 lengths of a pool – for Ward Five at Airedale General Hospital, which specialises in treating stroke patients.
Mrs Mann was treated first at Leeds General Infirmary, and later at Airedale, after she was left paralysed. She is now making a recovery and wanted to help the hospital raise money for a new bath chair.
Mrs Mann also plans to be at the Addingham Civic Society Spring Fair at Addingham Memorial Hall, Main Street, on Saturday. To donate, visit justgiving.com/Fiona-Mann.

We recently had a deck installed by a contractor recommended on the Trex.Com Website. The contractor was listed as a Trex Pro Gold Contractor.
Now 6 months later all of the TREX Decking is WARPED.
We sent in a claim to TREX under their so called warrantee system - however their response was that since the deck was improperly installed it would not be covered under the warranty ???
Hence The TREX Corporation are not going to honour their warranty or provide any sort of assistance.
Should I or can I sue Trex ? After all we only had the particular contractor do the work because he was recommended by the TREX Corporation.
Never Buy Trex Decking - The Company does not Stand behind it's product or use ethical contractors.

- Should I Sue Trex Deck Company ?
I had my deck installed 8/06 and immediately black spots appeared. We called Trex and they said they would send a contractor to clean the deck but we should wait until Spring and give the deck a chance to mature. Sometimes the spots disappear. They made us take pictures. Finally, after months of calling for a contractor, they sent someone to clean this past Saturday. Well guess what, spots still there. What is the status of your situation.

Warren Buffett's Recommended Reading ListThis time around we feature the favorite reads of none other than the Oracle of Omaha himself, Warren Buffett. Over time, he has recommended various books and here is the comprehensive list:
Common Stocks and Uncommon Profits by Phil Fisher: Regarding this book, Buffett said that, "I sought out Phil Fisher after reading his Common Stocks and Uncommon Profits and Other Writings. When I met him, I was as impressed by the man as by his ideas. A thorough understanding of the business, obtained by using Phil's techniques . . . enables one to make intelligent investment commitments."
The Smartest Guys in the Room by Bethany McLean: This was recommended in Buffett's annual letter from 2003 and details the rise and fall of Enron.
The Intelligent Investor by Benjamin Graham: This is an obvious choice as Buffett has said that this is "the most important investment book" and in particular has highlighted chapters 8 and 20 as essential.
John Bogle on Investing: The First 50 Years by John Bogle. This book is more aimed at the fund investing crowd given Bogle's expertise (Vanguard funds). In the past, Buffett has advocated investors who don't have much time on their hands to invest in index funds.
The Essays of Warren Buffett by Warren Buffett & edited by Larry Cunningham: There's no better way to learn from Buffett than through his own words. Buffett would agree as he says "The most representative book on my thinking is what Larry Cunningham put together."
Sam Walton: Made in America by Sam Walton: Another read Buffett recommended back in 2003, this book details how Walmart was built from the ground up.
And while this next pick is not from Buffett, we wanted to add it to the list because it is an in-depth biography of him. Those of you interested in the investing legend himself should check out The Snowball: Warren Buffett and the Business of Life by Alice Schroeder.
That wraps up Buffet's favorite picks. Make sure to check out some other books recommended by great investors:
- Hedge Fund Blue Ridge Capital's Picks
- Recommendations from Third Point's Dan Loeb
And lastly, here's various lists we've compiled by category:
- Fundamentals & Valuation
- Technical Analysis & Charts
- Books by Stock Market Gurus

GGD-86-31FS: Published: Dec 12, 1985. Publicly Released: Dec 12, 1985.

Pursuant to a congressional request, GAO reviewed statistical data on stock and mutual life insurance companies concerning insurance in force, insurance issued, investment yields, and taxes paid.

When I saw Cris' fantastic first blanket square, I implored her to share her progress on the blog. Despite that she's already sharing the progress of her Moonshine sweater, she agreed. I think that you'll like what you see. And if you check out the thread on Ravelry specifically for knitting blankets, I think you'll be just as impressed! We've got some great blankets being made! I would love to see someone knit blocks out of the sock club yarn. Wouldn't that be amazing?- Lauria
I am not so much for New Years resolutions. In most cases, I find that my enthusiasm for whatever resolution I have set for myself peters out some time around Valentine's Day (hello chocolate, my old friend). Instead, this year I set myself some goals. The goals should be a challenge, things I have to put effort into, but at the same time tangible and attainable.
One of my goals for 2014 is to design and knit an afghan block each month, which I will then stitch together at the end of the year into one snuggly blanket. The design aspect of this is the real challenge for me. I have improvised a few small knit and crochet items, but I have never officially designed anything. Especially not anything as large as a blanket.
After perusing my stash (another one of my goals is to knit from stash as much as possible), I decided to knit my blocks in Yearling. It is super soft and squishy, and the bulky weight yarn knits up quickly. Primarily, I'll be using the Hot Chocolate, Chili Pepper, Mermaid, and Butternut colorways, with a few other colors sprinkled in as accents here and there.
I am aiming for a patchwork sort of look. Some of my blocks will be solid color blocks with stitch patterns. Others will be colorwork designs of some sort. The only hard and fast rules are that the blocks should be 12 inches square (for easy seaming), and no two blocks will be exactly alike. For my January block, I used the Chili Pepper colorway to knit a block that I consider to be a scaled up version of the cabled owl motif featured in Kate Davies' owls sweater. I have always loved the little owls and the way they are created by an ingenious use of simple cables. My block also uses cables, but on a much larger scale, to create the owl design. Later, I'll add eyes and a beak using duplicate stitch.
Each month, I'll be sharing my progress and pictures of the new block here on the blog and in the JMF group on Ravelry. There are several of us in the JMF group knitting blankets of assorted designs this year, and we would love to have you join us in the blanket block-a-long. (If you are interested in knitting up one of my block designs, I'll be sharing the designs on Ravelry.) If you have your own blanket in progress or would like to start a blanket for the new year, please stop by the group and share your blanket ambitions with us. Hope to see you there!

Bottle #222 out or 280.
This beer pours a murkey brown color with a slight mohogany tint. It has an almost nonexisting head. What tiny head there is looks light tan. It disappears in seconds leaving a surprising lacing.
This beer smells strongly of Bourbon. It also has a vanilla like aroma to it. Some oak notes are present. Behind all that, I can detect some very sweet caramel malty aroma. The alcohol content is present in the aroma as well.
This beer tastes much like it smells. It tastes mostly of Bourbon. Behind the strong Bourbon flavor, I taste some vanila flavor mixed in with a slight woody flavor. It tastes very sweet. A lot of caramel flavor.
This beer is very full bodied, and quite aggressive. It warms the throat as it goes down, and leaves a Bourbon like aftertaste. It is almost uncarbonated.
This beer would probably not make a very good session beer at all. It is high in alcohol, and it tastes very aggressive. Not to mention that only 280 bottles were ever released.
Overall: I like this beer, but I think that some of the other barrel aged beers AleSmith makes are a little better.

(750ml bottle shared at Dak's!!). I got the bottom of the bottle and all that deliciousness. Pours cloudy brown with tan head. Aroma had lots of bourbon notes still. Taste is sweet bourbon and vanilla mostly. Full bodied with a creamy texture. This is a super beer that has held up marvelously!

I had the pleasure of obtaining a bottle of this wonderful beer and I chose specifically New Years eve to crack it open. Come hell or high water I was gonna try this beer. Served at cellar temp, bottle 127/280 this wonderful beer was decanted into an oversized wine glass and consumed on 12/31/2008.
The pour was very nice, a rich dark brown in color with a very cloudy nature to it. Some small sediment in the bottom of the glass and a light tuft of off white foam rising up over the top of the glass. Small retention left behind nothing more then a bare top on this one.
The aroma was loaded with vanilla and oak notes. Thick with barrel aged goodness, it was just spot on perfect for what I was hoping. Notes of toffee and caramel coming through very nicely as well as it warms. THe first taste was smooth as could be, age treated this one quite well. A wave vanilla and bourbon just washed over the tongue, smooth, subtle and inviting with a delicate warming as you sip. Each sip more complex then the one before it. Rich caramel and vanilla are dominating every sip. There was a mellow and subtle grain base here that left the last sip with a long vanilla backlash.
Overall this was a tremendously good beer, something that I was glad I got to try and was worth me tracking it down. I would gladly get this one again, it was just that damn good!

Released Dec. 2006
Barrel-Aged 2005 Decadence bottles 182 & 187 of 280.
Pours a very dark chesnut brown with small ivory head and relitively low carbonation...looks like an English old ale.
Smells very strong of caramel and toffee with loads of alcohol to back it up...mmm, sweet and chewy!
Tastes of the forementioned times five, very tasty off-the-bat, but needs a bit more maturation time for the carbonation and for the flavors to meld. None the less, this stuff is tasty, has a nice booziness to it and a nice complex flavor worth savoring.
A true sipper of big proportion, let this one age for at least a year and then pop it open with great expectations...I'm sure you'll be more than pleased...no doubt!
Big body, big ABV...enjoy it for it's flavor!

Huge thanks to Overlord for splitting this baby with me. I was very excited to get the chance to try this beer.
Pours a dark brown, with some carbonation surviving. The smell is pretty complex, molasses, dark fruit, bourbon and vanilla coming through. The taste was pretty complex, and the bourbon was not overpowering (a fear with these type of beers).
Alesmith is definitely one of my favorite breweries.

750ml bottle acquired from an SD friend in my time of need. Thanks for the opportunity, Scott. 2005 vintage, #85 of 280, gold foiled cap.
Poured in a heavy glass chalice, poured with a scant skimmy tan head over the cloudy chestnut brew. What bubbles there are quickly retreat to the rim, with a slight swirly film coverage. Aroma is deep rich malts, oaky vanilla notes, and a dominant alcohol presence. Taste is sweet dark maltiness upfront, sharp fruitiness in the middle, which gives way to the oaky alcohol that warms all the way down, leaving some numbness in its wake. Mouthfeel is up and down, with the high on the malty start, the nadir on the overpowering fruit tartness, and somewhere inbetween the alcohol charcter. Drinkability is ok, but I wasn't as wowed by this to start, and the barrel couldn't change it much for the better. A nice brew, but not my Alesmith favorite.

750ml bottle. Bottle # 69/280.
Poured a deep and cloudy brown color with an averaged sized off white head. Aromas of oaky woodiness, vanilla, dark fruits, and some caramel. Tastes of dark fruits, vanilla, bourbon (but not over powering), wood, chocolate, and oak. Medium alcohol burn in the finish.

Thanks for sharing this, Chris.
A: The pour is a murky amber color with a finger of off-white/khaki colored head.
S: Smells of bourbon and oak with tons of vanilla. Pretty typical Alesmith barrel aged beer nose. Dark fruits and booze with a mild tropical fruit note to it, strangely enough. Sweet toffee and caramel with a light toasted malt aroma. Plenty of oxidation, too.
T: Just like the aroma, the bourbon, vanilla, and oak characteristics are quite powerful. Lots of sweet malts, particularly toffee and caramel. A little bit of cherry with some other dark fruit notes such as plums and raisins.
M: Medium bodied with a sort of surprising amount of carbonation.
O: This was a bit too oxidized on the aroma and maybe too boozy. But, something I've really wanted to try. Glad to have done so.

I have to be frank here and say that my review is going to be sub-par for multiple reasons, specifically that I was really more interested in basking in the moment as well as the fact that I was at least 10 tastes in at this point, so please, forgive me for my terrible notes.
Poured into my designated tasting glass from Cigar City Brewing, it appeared a rich dark chestnut brown with ruby/copper highlights and was very murky and speckled with sediment. I can't say much about the head, as I didn't pour it myself, and it was probably a good 2 or 3 minutes before I was able to really delve into it and take pictures, so judging solely from the photographs and what I've read about most extensively aged (as well as barrel aged) beers, I'm willing to deduce that what I saw when I was snapping shots is pretty much all there was. A few large bubbles submerged under smaller bubbles in a medium pearly, wheat-colored ring of foam hugged the glass while floating heavily on top of the liquid. As I drank the beer, there was no lacing left behind and no visible carbonation throughout.
Now that we're done with the easy visual part, I can't guarantee my opinions and findings with this beer, but I will try my damnedest to decipher my scribbled notes. As I stuck my nose in the glass, I initially came out with lots of vanilla, milk chocolate, and caramel, which made it seem very sweet. As I returned to the brew, thick oaky notes and pieces of syrupy brown sugar toffee floating in bourbon presented themselves alongside some deep, rich malts and slightly fainter dark fruits, namely raisins and figs, which I actually didn't find until after I had started tasting. Despite all of the very sweet components, the larger presence of the bourbon and oak really smoothed everything out without making it too mild or too heavy.
How am I doing so far? Not too shabby for a beer I had 3 days ago in the middle of a busy and delicious tasting, if I do say so myself. Now for the flavors. From what I remember without looking at my notes, and while reading through what I found in the nose, I think that the taste and the aroma were pretty similar and complimented each other in their similarities. According to my notes, the whole drink was ridiculously smooth and dominated by the bourbon and oak flavors. I found some faint dark fruit molasses (raisin and fig again, maybe some dates), quite a bit of vanilla and caramel, sweet dark malts, chocolate, toffee, and a very light doughy yeast that seemed a little out of place. I may have imagined the yeast altogether, but with all of the "specialty yeast strains" they used in this brew, I guess it shouldn't surprise me that some of it may have survived. Regardless, it wasn't a feature that would ever characterize this beer for me, so I'll just focus on the sweet, sweet dark and malty and bourbony love that poured from this bottle. I did enjoy that there wasn't a sweet aftertaste and that the mouthfeel was creamy without being thick or syrupy. The carbonation was lightly spicy, due in large part to the alcohol (11%) I'm sure, but over the course of my tasting, it actually felt rather soft, though far from flat. Overall, trying to tell that this Decadence was 11% alcohol was impossible. It was just too smooth in execution and too velvety in flavor, which made for one hell of an experience. I only wish that words could do it justice. This was definitely one of my favorite beers from the tasting and I am counting myself extremely lucky to have had this opportunity.

Wooof! I looked at the label to see if Brettanomyces was mentioned, so I can only conclude it's a less welcome bacteria in my bottle. Still some malt but mostly the back of the mouth sweet 'n' sour. Oddly salty, very bitter and not from hops. The longer that taste sits on my tongue the more I want a large glass of water. Sorry I didn't taste it sooner, or someone in San Diego is selling a case they kept in the metal shed. Apparently five years is too much for this one.

From the second release of this beer. Dank fine looking chestnut colored with a yellow head of 2 fingers fading quickly.
Amazing nose. Sweet english malts toffee, caramel, fig, date, raisin, prune, hints of oxidation, bourbon, toffee, wood hints of earth and brown sugar.
Whiskey shows through nicely with that woodsy toasted vanilla lusciousness. Date really shows throght with the fig and prune behind, brown sugar and mollasses. Not as sweet as the nose would indicate with only slight oxidation. Nice with some years to go still.
A sweet potato flavor as well.m

Thanks to Chris for sharing at Woodshop Classix.
A: Ruddy brown and murky with a fleeting white head.
S: I'm greeted by caramel and bread with rich toffee and a light cardboard presence. Bourbon is very light and there's a dash of vanilla. Much oak wafts from the glass.
T: Rich caramel blends with toffee, and once again the bourbon presence is light. There's still a little alcohol heat and a lower moderate earthy bitterness. Oak and vanilla are evident. There's more cardboard in the flavor than there was in the nose.
M: Upper medium body with lower moderate carbonation. Mouthfeel is smooth and sticky with warming.
Overall: It was really nice to try this again, but it's undoubtedly far beyond its prime. Cardboard is taking control.

Bottle in trade from Padrefan98. Thanks for this one!!
Pours a hazy, muddy, brownish color. Smell is aged maltiness, oak and bourbon and very well balanced. Smells great. Taste is raisiny, malty with a light alcohol and bourbon flavor in the finish. Medium bodied, and no real heat from the alcohol for me. Really drinkable and tasty.

If you load "song only" it seems that any instrument patch information assigned to the tracks/channels is ignored, and every midi track defaults to instrument 1 which in most cases is some sort of piano. If your song file defines other instruments (flute, synth strings etc) for the tracks (and let's face it, this would be the common case) then these are not loaded if "song only" is selected. Actually, I have a dim memory that "song only" also ignores any midi interface setting (ie: which ALSA sequencer device a given track is connected to), but I could be wrong here. > Mathias, this is your invention, right? Do you have any comments? I should add that I think "song only" has a place. It's just that for my workflow I don't have a use for it, and I suspect this would be the case for most people. That is why I'm suggesting that the default mode should be "song+data". Having said all that, I'm perfectly willing to be told that I'm missing something obvious here though. :-) Regards jonathan
