Celebrating "The Bonus Family"
By sam breach on August 11, 2006
I was moved, earlier, by Zarah Mariah from Food & Thoughts who counts her blessings as she beautifully describes her relationship with the Stepmon she prefers to describe as her Bonus-Mom. Because mothers bring comfort, it is no surprise that Zarah caps off the occasion by sharing her favourite bread recipe.
More bonus families after the break...
A few minutes later I stumbled across an equally moving post by Lynda of Food, Books and Foodbooks who is saying goodbye to her husband's youngest son who is moving 400 miles away with his mother. Because food is so wrapped up with emotion it is no surprise she baked him some very special cupcakes.
And because things always seem to come in threes, I could hardly be surprised when the next post I read was from Tana, of Small Farms, who chose to spend her last day with her exe's two sons sharing with them the green, green grass of home, before their move to Utah.

Crested Butte Real Estate Market Update:
Our local real estate market continues to recover from a slow first quarter but has not quite rebounded as of yet. In the Crested Butte area we are down 25% which is a vast improvement over the 50% down in the first quarter. Interestingly the majority of the shortage can be attributed to a lack of sales in the single family home segment in rural Crested Butte. This segment was down over $15mil from last year. Another contributing factor is that high end sales have been slow in the second quarter as can be seen on our significant sales page in our quarterly report below. Our highest sold price to date for 2014 is $1.925mil verses $4.25mil in 2013.
Our market is steadily improving as $6.7mil of single family homes, condos and town homes have sold in July alone. With over $25mil now under contract we are on track to match last year's performance.

School's back in session, which means the second half of swimming season is in full swing. In case you're still reading after the first sentence's abundance of alliteration, there are a few things to talk about this week. Tuesday's notebook had a handful of interesting stories but one didn't make the final cut, so, I've given Wayne Hills' many siblings and Harrison Yi some space here. Demarest and Tenafly also had a meet with significant implications on the boys side, and a flurry of recent results have shaken up the Super Six. Even though we published one Tuesday, we'll update it again. Here we go.
Wayne Hills' Family Bonds Strengthen Tradition
All sports teams try to come together based on the idea that the team itself is a family, but for Wayne Hills that metaphor's considerably more literal.
The Patriots have six sets of siblings competing for them this year across the boys and girls sides, and for coach Mike Shale, it's been a boon for the team. "The new kids really want to be a part of the team based on what their siblings have said about the program in previous years," said Shale. Wayne Hills' boys and girls consider themselves one big team, and these familial bonds, though not the sole reason for their team unity, reinforce the connections between the swimmers.
Tanner and Troy Melendez, Chris and Alexis D'Aloia, and James and Michelle Lee are all still young and improving, waiting to make their marks on the team. Plenty has been said about Gabi and Emma Cancel already-both are in the upper echelon of Passaic swimmers. Steve Russo is a senior leader for the boys, while sophomore sister Kristen Russo is part of the girls team's future. Finally, Mary Jane Gurriell has been the heart and soul of the girls' team — she's loud, enthusiastic, and supportive; her brother Joseph has exhibited great spirit for the boys.
In addition to the six sets of siblings, another ten swimmers on the team have siblings who are now Wayne Hills swimming alums. Shale praised three in particular.
Sophomore Sam Kauffman has broken out this season after a strong freshman year, and is one of Hills' top notch swimmers even though she was often bested by Meaghan O'Donnell at the county championships. Her siblings Matt and Sarah, like Sam, were known for their strong work ethics and get it when it comes to high school swimming, according to Shale. The same can be said about senior Caitlin Albanese and her brother Steven. Finally, Shale praised junior Melanie Urresty's tremendous attitude, even though her ability might not quite match her sister Steph's, who Shale said "might be the best swimmer I ever had."
So why does this trend of siblings bear mentioning? It's not just the swimming pedigree that these family members share. The idea of family has created a tradition for Wayne Hills' swim team that has been reinforced over two generations of swimmers. This tradition isn't created solely due to the literal family ties within the teams. Clearly the structure is already there, and the family ties just add to it. Team unity is strengthened, confidence is improved, and the Patriots always have the ability to pick themselves up thanks to how they are connected to one another.
Yi Pushing Tenafly into Area's Elite, But Others Must Step Up
Before a race, you might not even notice Harrison Yi if he were standing next to you on the pool deck, says Tenafly coach Holly Arnold. But the soft-spoken sophomore's performances in the pool are as loud as the roars of teammates in the final lap of a race.
Yi has been a reliable force in the pool this year, even if his team's most recent result didn't show it. Yi "only" won one of his individual events in Tenafly's 112-58 loss to Demarest, the 200 freestyle (1:51.27). In the 100 backstroke, he lost out to Demarest's brilliant Johnny Kilduff. Yi also got a relay win along with Robert Safran, Tommy Bachar, and Chris Simotas in the 400 freestyle (3:30.38).
Yi's not your typical leader out of the pool, but once he hits the water, all his teammates pay attention. Yi's trademarks this season (besides wins) have been improved focus and an improved work ethic. "He saw his potential last year, and really started wanting to…become a better swimmer," said Arnold.
The Demarest meet magnified the fact that Tenafly's short on depth, and at this juncture, they have to work with what they have. Arnold said that she could mix up the relay teams a little, but otherwise the team must rely on its leadership and continue to come together. "We have good team unity, even though it's been better in years past," said Arnold. "But we can definitely improve. All the swimmers get along well, and we do things together."
Ultimately, Yi, Safran, and Simotas will probably keep their form, but Tenafly's swimmers towards the outer lanes are going to be the ones who make or break the Tigers' season.
Hackett, Presta, and Steinberg Star for DePaul
DePaul (249 points) came up considerably short of the Passaic County title, finishing in third to Clifton (321 points) and Passaic Tech (276 points), but three of their boys were among the event's best swimmers.
Ryan Hackett has played a major role for DePaul this season and put his skills on display at the county championship. Hackett won the 50 freestyle with a time of 23.70 and the 100 breaststroke with a time of 1:05.36. "[Ryan] works hard all season and is a great captain and role model," said coach Jessica Valdivia. "I am very proud of him and to win two events his senior year is a big accomplishment."
Hackett's excellence was matched by Michael Presta, who broke Jovany Avendano's meet record in the 200 IM. Presta's time of 2:01.18 bested Avendano's 2:02.91, which Avendano set on January 8, 2011. Presta also won the 100 backstroke with a time of 56.20. Aidan Steinberg also won two individual events, the 200 freestyle (1:53.77) and the 500 freestyle (5:11.88).
DePaul's success in the relays, though, was the true indicator of the trio's performance. Steinberg, Hackett, and Presta, along with Jake Flanagan, won the 200 medley relay (1:49.65) and 400 freestyle relay (3:36.70).
Super Six
Boys (Previous Ranking/Movement)
- Bergen Catholic (1st, no change) Nothing in the results department from BC, but they've got an important slate of dual meets before the Bergen County Championships. They race Don Bosco on January 9, Tenafly on January 12, and Tappan Zee (N.Y.) on January 14.
- Demarest (2nd, no change) The Norsemen's victory over Tenafly was key as they hadn't had a lot of chances to show their worth in the pool so far this season. Johnny Kilduff led the charge, participating in Demarest's 200 medley relay win with Dan Oh, Andrew Ro, and Tanner An. He also won the 200 IM (2:02.49) and 100 backstroke (54.77).
- Tenafly (3rd, no change) Tenafly can't get down on themselves after the loss to Demarest, because in addition to the county championship, they've got Bergen Catholic, Ramsey, and Northern Highlands to deal with over a three-week span.
- Northern Highlands (5th, one up) Highlands won every event in a 107-62 victory over Indian Hills. The win was a true team effort, as a different swimmer won each individual event. Sean Alfonso, Dan Mecca, and Brian Donahue were each part of two relay winning teams.
- Old Tappan (unranked) Old Tappan is actually the main reason there's such a scrum after the top four of the Super Six. They beat former sixth-ranked Pascack Valley on January 4, 94-75, and beat Passaic champion Clifton 89-80 on January 6. They race Fair Lawn, Ramapo, and Ramsey over the next week.
- Ramapo (unranked) Ramapo re-enters the Super Six after taking down Paramus Catholic in a nip-and-tuck meet Monday. Heading into the break the two teams were tied at 31, but Ramapo came away with an 87-83 victory. They look ahead to Indian Hills, Old Tappan, and Wayne Valley over the next week.
- IHA (1st, no change) They didn't have any meets over Christmas break, and will get going again on January 12 against Tenafly. Following that they'll face off against Westfield on January 22.
- Northern Highlands (3rd, one up) Highlands' boys and girls teams look like mirror images of one another right now. The girls beat Indian Hills 106-62 and had a different winner for each individual race. They have a few weeks off from dual meets until they face Tenafly on January 26, and then Ridgewood on January 31.
- Kinnelon (2nd, one down) Kinnelon took a surprising 97-73 loss to Mountain Lakes on Tuesday, which opened the door for Highlands' rise. They don't have any remaining meets against Bergen or Passaic teams in January.
- Pascack Valley (4th, no change)
- Wayne Valley (5th, no change)
- Wayne Hills (6th, no change)

No matter how much you eat and live right, some of us just cannot get rid of those few pesky pounds here and there. Many methods are available for that purpose, from liposuction to lipolysis. Whether liposuction or lipolysis by laser, ultrasound or radiofrequency assistance, each has various degrees of invasion, efficiency and risk factors.(1) But today we explore a unique, new, FDA cleared advancement that will revolutionize the way we think about body contouring: CoolSculpting™.
CoolSculpting™ by Zeltiq®
Zeltiq® was founded in 2005. The technique was developed by dermatologists Drs. Dieter Manstein, MD, PhD, and R. Rox Anderson, MD, at the Wellman Center at Massachusetts General Hospital in Boston, a teaching affiliate for Harvard Medical School.
The Science
The word cryolipolysis is broken down into three parts: "cryo", Greek for icy cold; "lipo", Greek for fat; and "lysis", Greek for to break down. The idea actually came from the effect of cold on children's fat: When they eat too many popsicles, they develop cheek dimpling. Interestingly enough, this dimpling has a clinical term: popsicle panniculitis! It was also noted newborns with hypothermia develop panniculitis (fat inflammation). (1)
How Fat Cells are Different From Other Cells
Basically, fat cells are more sensitive to cooling than other cells surrounding them (skin, muscle, and nerve cells).(1) Cooling breaks them down in a process known as apoptosis, meaning cell death. Apoptosis in turn leads to the release of inflammatory mediators and the attraction of inflammatory cells.
These inflammatory cells help the body clean up dead fat cells. The lipids once contained inside the cells are eliminated through the lymphatic system.(1) This happens gradually over the course of the two to four months following the procedure, leading to decreased thickness of the fat layer. Because the process is slow, there is no risk of a sudden increase in blood lipid levels or affection of liver function.(4)
How Cold is Coolsculpting?
Studies by Zeltiq® tested temperatures as low as – 7° Celsius (19.4° Fahrenheit).
But more important than the temperature reached is how fast it's reached. The people at Zeltiq® use the term Cooling Intensity Factor, or CIF, a numerical value which measures the rate at which heat is drawn away from the treated area. The heat is drawn away from the area in a controlled manner that ensures only fat cells are affected, which creators termed "selective lipolysis".(3)
The Procedure
After your dermatologist declares you are a suitable candidate for the procedure and obtains consent, the following happens:
- Documentation is taken for before and after comparisons. This documentation includes photography, body weight, and circumference of the area to be treated.
- Afterward, you lie down in preparation for the procedure. Bring something to keep you busy, such as a book or an iPad. Or you can ask for the lights to be dimmed and use the time for a mid-day nap!
- A very thin pad is placed on the skin on the targeted area. It's soaked in "coupling gel." This is to ensure constant contact between the skin and the applicator during the procedure.
- The device's cup-shaped "applicator" is applied on top of the pad, and a vacuum is turned on to suck in the targeted area. A C-shaped pillow may be put around the applicator to support it.
- The applicator has two cooling panels on either side of the pinched skin, which start bringing down the temperature of the targeted area. Temperature sensors, also in the applicator, monitor the entire process and give feedback through the device's display.
The Experience
- The pad that is applied is soaked in a gel so you will initially feel it cool and wet on your skin.
- The suction and cooling sensations are not at all uncomfortable.
- After the applicator is removed, the area treated will feel very cold and a tad bit hard, as one delightful patient described it, "it feels like a chicken just out of the freezer!" Don't panic! This is the desired end result and it will fade away within the next couple of hours.
The End Result
- Over the course of two to four months, you will notice a gradual reduction in the circumference of the treated area and a visible sculpting or contouring that looks very natural.(2)
- Reduction has been reported to be anywhere between 1 – 5 cm (0.5 to 2 inches). Patients reported going down a dress size.
- If desired, the procedure can be repeated after two to four months.
- According to the site, results have been shown to be persistent for over six months post procedure. More long term studies are yet to be conducted.
The Cost
Depending on the target area, prices are anywhere between $600 and $2,000 per area.
- Non invasive: no hospitalization, no anesthesia, no surgery, no stitches, no pain!
- Zero down time: You finish the procedure, and go back to work or get ready for that dinner date!
- Excellent for fit, healthy people or have a fat bulge here or there.
No real disadvantages, just some points:
- The treated area becomes red; this usually disappears by the end of the day.(1,2)
- There's swelling or bruising due to the vacuum; this disappears within the first week.(2)
- Twenty percent of patients reported temporary numbness in the area treated (dysthesia); this normalizes in one to eight weeks. There have been no reports of lasting numbness, but the sensation can be pretty irritating.(2)
- This procedure is not suitable for patients who are overweight or have considerable skin laxity. (2)
- A single session lasts from one to three hours.
- The device has only one applicator, so if you are targeting two areas (e.g. both love handles) you will need to be there for double the time, as one area is treated at a time.
- Expectations have to be realistic; it's crucial to understand that the results are not as drastic as a liposuction.
- The CoolSculpting™ makers do not recommend that the procedure be used as a treatment for cellulite.
- As one study points out, the effect of cooling must be evaluated in patients suffering from diseases that are aggravated by the cold, such as cold urticaria or cryoglobulinema.(1) Always tell your doctor of any pre-existing conditions.
Bottom Line
Cryolipolysis is still in its early stages, and more studies are needed to fully understand the procedure and its long term effects. Nevertheless, there is no arguing this procedure is a breakthrough in the world of body contouring! Whether it is for you really depends; some would prefer an invasive, more drastic liposuction, some would prefer a non invasive, lunch time or weekend CoolSculpting™ session with more subtle effects.
Also, it is important to keep in mind that "do-it-yourself" cooling techniques, such as applying ice for a long time on your skin, can be damaging.(1) This is because CoolSculpting™ is designed to treat the skin in a controlled, regulated manner.

The National Association of Home Builders called on the U.S. Congress to ensure that legislation to make homes more energy efficient focuses on measures that provide the greatest environmental benefit without putting housing affordability at risk.
Dwight "Sonny" Richardson, NAHB Construction, Codes, and Standards Committee Chair, made recommendations to the House Subcommittee on Energy and the Environment when he recently testified at a hearing on the American Clean Energy Security Act.
Richardson said that legislation must be flexible and include not just the savings achieved from insulated doors, windows, and wall cavities, but also energy-efficient heating and air-conditioning systems – or a combination of insulation and appliance requirements.
Richardson also said that Congress should "extend, or make permanent" the tax credits passed earlier this year that incentivize the purchase of energy-efficient windows, additional insulation and other improvements in existing homes.
Last, Richardson urged Congress to embrace current and future green building policies.

Optimal Abandonment of EU Coal-fired Stations
AbstractCoal-fired power plants face potential difficulties in a carbon constrained world. The traditional advantage of coal as a cheaper fuel may erode in the future if CO2 allowance prices increase. When would it be optimal to abandon a coal station and obtain its salvage value? We assess this question following the Real Options approach. We consider the case of a coal plant that operates in a deregulated electricity market where natural gas-fired plants are the marginal units. We assume specific stochastic processes for the fundamental uncertainties in our model: coal price, natural gas price, and emission allowance price. The underlying parameters are derived from actual futures markets. They are further used in a three-dimensional binomial lattice to assess the decision to abandon. We draw the optimal exercise boundary. Sensitivity analyses (regarding fuel prices, allowance price, volatilities, useful life, residual value, thermal efficiency, safety valves in carbon prices, time step) are also undertaken.

On the Nexus, I can turn off all location. If I turn OFF the phone from here to there, someone will know where I was, and where I am now, but will not know how I got there or what I did in between. And we do turn off the phones. We tend to go where service is spotty, and no use killing the battery by having the phone search for a carrier.

And here comes an all new HTC One Android smartphone. While the naming convention which HTC will be using is currently unaware, but this smartphone will surely create some ripples. HTC has finaly lifted the curtains when it comes to the launch date. HTC will be announcing the launch of All new HTC One on March 25 in London and New York. Along with the launch date, we also managed to mention on how the All new HTC One will look like as mentioned below. It seems like HTC is really taking some hard core inspiration from Apple by leaking the Gold color smartphone along with the name "All new HTC One". While its almost just more than a month for HTC to think about the name, this phone is surely the most awaited fans who liked HTC One android smartphone. HTC will look to make sure to get rid off the bugs which HTC One smartphones had w.r.t camera etc.
The HTC One 2 that was revealed earlier via 3D printed mock up is now dubbed as HTC M8 and some specifications came out from a well known leaker, @evleaks (Twitter name). He also suggested that the leaks are preliminary.
In his tweet, @evleaks said that the device dubbed as M8 will have a 5 inch Full HD 1080p display powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon 800 MSM874 processor coupled with a 2 GB RAM and an UltraPixel camera on its back and a 2.1 MP front camera. The M8 will also feature 802.11a/b/g/b/ac Wi-Fi connectivity and will be running on KitKat under the Sense 6.0 UI (User interface) on top.
This HTC One successor will be the first handset running on HTC Sense 6.0 and the processor seems to be an Qualcomm processor (Snapdragon 805) as we mentioned in our earlier post and the rear camera coming with UltraPixels is not sure how many pixels it would carry but in the previous rumors it was expected to carry a 4 MP camera like its predecessor HTC One.
Although the leaks did not suggest any release date to us but we are expected to see it in the MWC (Mobile World Congress) 2014 that will be held in Barcelona in the month of February. We are still not sure of the name it would get but am very much excited to get this flagship device from HTC very soon. The Sense 6.0 UI will be another point to be noted as it will be the first time featuring a device expected to come with many changes.
So are you waiting for this HTC's new flagship? Wait till MWC this year, and we will be there covering all the details and keep you updated.
The successor to the HTC One, code named as HTC One 2 is made up of resin has got revealed with its 3D mock-up giving an outer look of what this device is going to look like. This resin mock up is made using specifications given to the creator by an insider.
The sources also suggested that this device will be the next generation of the flagship HTC One that could be revealed at Mobile World Congress 2014 (MWC) in Barcelona, mostly last week of February. This device looks similar to the original HTC One but has a 5 inch display instead of a 4.7 inch seen in its predecessor. This display is about to come with a 1080 x 1920 pixel resolution giving it a slightly lesser 441 ppi than the original HTC One flagship model which had 468 ppi, similar ppi that can be seen on the Samsung Galaxy S4.
Most likely HTC One 2 will go with Qualcomm Snapdragon 800 or Qualcomm Snapdragon 805 processor to power the device, but if it decides to roll out with Qualcomm Snapdragon 805 then we can see a video output at 4K resolution. This would likely be happening for the device, giving the best quality videos for its customers.
From the resin mock up design we can expect two speakers on the front side of the HTC One 2 branded with its own BoomSound speakers which has become a noticeable thing from HTC line up from past. The design with a bigger hole beside the rear camera suggest that this device will be rolling out with double flash or it could even be a mic hole also. The cameras are going to remain the same 4 MP (rear) and 2.1 MP (front) as we saw in the original HTC One flagship Android phone.
In the storage side, the device is expected with a 16 GB on-board memory that is likely to be extended with a microSD card slot. This device will be rolling out the box with Android 4.4 KitKat OS that will be ready to be unleashed. The pricing of the device cannot be predicted as we are not sure of all the specifications yet, but definitely it will be a high end model expected in high range.
We are pretty much excited to see HTC One 2 (the name might be changed!) very soon in the market, so does you? Will you be ready for the device?

Through dialogue and correspondence between the protagonist Raphael Hythloday and his friends and contemporaries, More explores the theories behind war, political disagreements, social quarrels, and wealth distribution and imagines the day-to-day lives of those citizens enjoying freedom from fear, oppression, violence, and suffering.

As Northern Colorado residents infected with the flu begin to stream into area emergency rooms and hospitals, one fact is emerging. 89 percent of patients treated for flu symptoms did not get a shot.
If you had the flu this season you weren't alone in Colorado. The state logged the second highest number of flu-related hospitalizations since reporting began in the 2004.

This year's flu vaccine appears to be doing a unusually poor job of protecting the elderly, federal health officials reported Thursday.
Overall, this year's flu vaccine appears to be only about 27 percent effective for people ages 65 and older, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention reports in this week's Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report.

As the flu season grinds on from news cycle to news cycle, there's some flu news of a different sort. Federal regulators have approved a next-generation type of flu vaccine for the second time in two months.
The two new vaccines are the first fruits of a big government push to hasten and simplify the laborious production of flu vaccines.

Purchased at Belmont Station and shared by ramnuts as he made chili. Thanks Frank!
A: Pours a dark mahogany-ruby color; its translucence is immediately apparent in the small pour. The tan head is surprisingly generous for what is (later discovered to be) a nearly 10% beer. Retention is ok, lacing is poor.
S: Vanilla. It was like sniffing a vanilla bottle, actually, with that accompanying alcohol sting. Cherry, brown sugar, and chocolate as well. It was so strong and pungent that it just became sickening after a while. Personal preference I suppose.
T: Again, vanilla beans first and foremost, and they dominated the flavor completely until it warmed to the right temperature. Then it "opened up" and revealed hints of dark chocolate-covered cherries, coffee, and brown sugar... But the vanilla never left. It haunted me. Neither of us picked up the oak advertised on the label.
M: Light-bodied and not quite smooth. I bet that if it were thicker it would hold the flavor better and be slightly less hot.
D: Couldn't even have a second pour, much less finish the bottle. This is a fairly new beer, judging from the earliest review (last season). They may still be tweaking the recipe. I am leaving open the possibility of grabbing another bottle in a later season. But right now? Hell no.

Bottle provided by akbeerfiend in a big trade a while back. Thanks man!
From a bomber into a snifter
Vintage: 2009
APPEARANCE: A transparent brown pour makes a one finger, medium looking, light tan head with decent retention. head quickly fades to a splotchy wisp and ring. Black body with lower levels of carbonation evident. Very transparent as well. A ring remains but leaves no lacing down the glass. A little too thin looking for the style.
SMELL: Bigger nose and it's totally fruity. Dates, prunes, with some dark grapes and cherries as well. Grape juice maybe, with a couple spoons of brown sugar thrown in for fun. This is going to be way too sweet and off the mark. None of the dark malts that's expected of a big porter.
TASTE: Bold flavors as well, with lots of fruity qualities. Dark fruits, cherries and grapes, with a good dose of sweet brown sugar. Grape juice. Some light hints of vanilla and dark chocolate at the swallow, but that leads to a bold and persistent, brutally sweet aftertaste of grape juice spiked with brown sugar. Some might like this for what it is, but it totally misses the mark of what an imperial porter should be all about.
PALATE: Medium body and medium carbonation. Not creamy or smooth enough on the palate, then goes down with a decent burn at the swallow and finishes rather cloying. Definitely needs to be creamier and less cloyingly sweet.
OVERALL: This gets really high marks on this site, so maybe this vintage just sucks. Either that, or people are reviewing it as a beer and not as a Baltic porter. I can see someone liking this one on its own, but as a big porter, it takes three straight strikes looking. It is far too transparent and thin looking for the style, is much too sweet and fruity while missing the patented dark malt flavors the style is so well-known for, and is much too cloying on the finish. I'd scrap this one and start from scratch. Drain enjoyed half the bottle. Ignore this and drink buckets of their Smoked Porter instead. Regardless, thanks heaps for the great trade akbeerfiend. Can't wait to do it again!

bomber 2008 by way of riversideAk... muchas gracias, alex!
dark reddish cola brown colored with a tan tinted head which fades and lasts as a ring.
floral bananas, yeast and alcohol are initially noticed before a blast of marshmallow peeps... you know, the candies... yuck! it's a bit perplexing yet is noted by my drinking companion so i know that i'm not losing my mind... later on as the beer is allowed to warm and open it reveals notes of vanilla, chocolate, coffee, dark roast and cinnamon. the peep aroma remains...
the first taste is definitely peep flavored... pink to be exact. i allow it to sit and hope that it opens... about an hour later it shows vanilla, roast, cocoa, loads of coffee, bananas, denatured alcohol (yep) and a floral, ashy, booze laden finish. the peeps still haunt my palate. there IS a pleasant char character in the aftertaste. the medium body has some texture from the ale yeast but it is too sweet for my liking (though not unusual for a BP). the mouth feel is somewhat flat and dead on the tongue.
a day later (lunch to be exact).... still pretty much the same but mellower. the plastic floral notes are still in abundance and it's riddled with ethanol... blech, this thing is a mess. 4/3/4/2/7/2.0

22 oz bottle, dated 2009. Pours brown with a smallish tan head that quickly goes to a thin film that leaves some lacing.
The aroma is alcoholic fruity chocolate. The alcohol is pretty sharp. Lots of rum soaked cherries, plums, apples and fudge.
The flavor is strong alcohol and lots of slight tart fruits. The some roasted chocolate and some plasticy cardboard bitterness in the finish. The mouthfeel is medium bodied.
Overall, I was excited to see a baltic porter since I like the smoked porter quite a bit, but this beer is a bit of a mess - strange fruity alcohol with lots of off notes.

2.45/5 rDev -41.1%
What is this, blackberry jam? A pie-flavored, burnt crust, Splenda-sweetened beverage I hesitate to call beer. The aroma is light but the nose of wood and vanilla is pleasant enough but tiki torches are smoldering in the background.
Black as an Alaskan night in the glass. A thin mustache of foam but sub-par carbonation. So sweet it tastes like something you'd have at the deli for breakfast with coffee. But that bitterness never lets you forget. I would call this blackberry Manischewitz with a dark, guilty secret. Finally, after some remorse, the flavor of canned sweet cherries comes through. Bitter, cardboard, woody, burnt sugar, fruit cocktail-- it tastes like Sterno looks like.
The label says this is the 2012 version. I call it undrinkable, though for cough syrup it would be pretty good with a vodka chaser. In fact, now that you mention it... From the 22 oz bottle bought at Liticker's in San Diego.

2012 vintage:
Dark nut brown body topped with a finger or so of tan khaki head with some yellow hues... good amount of lacing.
Molasses, brown sugar, I'm struggling to pull any cherry out of this... or much oak for that matter, just smells sweet with a bit of alcohol at the tail end of the sniff. The cherry characteristic shows itself after a few degrees of warmth.
This is not my bag... metallic brown ale type flavors... pennies and tin foil, laden with cooked brown sugar, some maple syrup flavors only add to the predicament...
Ditch the brown sugar, ditch the vanilla beans. But first ditch the brown sugar.

a solid black affair with an off white/tan head. the nose isn't very roasty, a smooth malt aroma is more present. the background is a bit copperish, kind of sour on the finish, and to my dismay a bit watery for a porter of any kind. the mouth-feel is extremely thin and not much in the way of carbonation. as far as drinkability is concerned it is an easy downer, but as a porter it is a downer.

3.13/5 rDev -24.8%
Pours a dark burgundy color with a thin tan head. Lacing in
minimal. The nose is heavy on oak, vanilla, and dark fruit. Slightly
sharp from the high ABV. A light aroma of toffee. Mouthfeel is
medium to full bodied, with a rich, roasty finish. Heavy vanilla
dominates, followed by touches of oak, cherry, toffee, dark chocolate and licorice. Boozy, cloyingly sweet, and overdone. Aging might help this one along.

22oz bottle $9. I bought this just because I like their barleywine, bad idea. This was dark black, decent head, looks just fine to me. The smell was sweet, sticky, vanilla, uhhh. The flavor hada hint of the cherries and a lot of vanilla sweetness. I honestly could not get past what the vanilla and oak had done to this beer and I did not think there was anything special about it. It was not a bad beer it was just quite average tasting and I was expecting to be wowed. Oh well...

Enjoyed this at a little bottle share at Tree House Brewery. Reviewed from notes. This is a 2009 vintage.
A - Poured into a Tree House glass a thin brownish hue, looks slightly watery, with a thin mocha head that leaves faint wisps. Not a bad start...
S - Ugh! I know this has cherries in it, but all I'm getting is cherry cough syrup aromas. Really disappointed here. Not getting much chocolate or malts just overwhelming cherry syrup.
T - Unfortunately it is like the nose with big, almost sickeningly sweet cherry cough syrup as well as cola syrup with heavy malty sweetness and molasses. Way, way too sweet for my tastes.
M - Mouthfeel was super, super thin here. Lighter carbonation just feels watery.
O - Overall I was looking forward to this beer but it really fell short. Not sure if it is just an off bottle or what but this vintage did not hold up.

A - Pours dark with a very slight red brown tint and a . Seems highly viscous and gooey as it swirls around during the pour.
S - Light vanilla scents combined with some sweet fruitiness.
T - I immediately think of cake... maybe caramel; then I am reminded of rum/sugarcane. Definitely a sweeter beer to my palate. Medium complexity with subtle nuances... not the big beer roasty taste I was expecting.
M - A thick, heavy bodied feel with a pleasant med to low carbonation.
D - Given the not well hidden high ABV and sweetness of this beer, I def have to share a 22 oz. with someone else.
This beer is not one of my favorites but is definitely worth a try. I will probably not seek this one out again in the future.

Split with angrybabboon.
Appearance: Dark brown almost black. Minimal tan head. Drops to a small, tiny, collar in short order. No visible carbonation to speak of.
Smell: Ripe cherry. Red licorice. Small touches of vanilla and caramel. Some oak. Leather, chocolate and some acetic notes. Cocoa nibs. Some minor roasted malts. Lots of cherry. Hints of plum and honey. Cocoa and milk chocolate. Some black licorice. Dark fruit with some floral notes.
Taste: Dark cherry and licorice. Black and red. Small hints of vanilla coupled with a touch of oak in the back. Some slight toasted malts. Cocoa and milk chocolate. Marshmallow. Like a s'more minus the graham cracker. Roasted. Touches of smoke in the back. Crazy cherry licorice. Cherry skin and even more licorice. Warming makes this a red licorice bonanza.
Mouthfeel: Moderate to full body. Minimal carbonation. A bit juicy.
Overall: Roll it ad smoke it.
If they took Smoked Porter and added the things they did, this would be intense. As it is, it's a red licorice bomb. Good, but loses something as it warms..

I bought a bomber of Alaskan Baltic Porter at a beer store $8.99. Poured in to a pint glass.
Pours a nearly opaque black color, but it is clear and translucent, with garnet red hues. Frothy tan head is resilient but not sticky. Minimal lacing adheres to the glass.
Smell is strong and sweet. I smells like burnt brown sugar and molasses.
Taste is dark sweet flavor, molasses and dark fruit flavors like prunes and dried cherries. There is a bit of a bitter charcoal aftertaste, with a whiskey-like flavor on te finish.
Mouthfeel is full-bodied, cloying, lightly carbonated with some alcohol heat in the back of the throat.
Not the most drinkable beer. Too much ABV to be sessionable, and the flavor is overpowering. It wouldn't pair well with food, or go woth other beers. It's "sippable" that's about all you can say for it.

22oz bottle poured into a tulip.
Pours almost black into the glass with a creamy beige head that settles into a thin cap and leaves sporadic lacing.
The aroma is very sweet with
The taste has tons of sweet dark malts and lots of molasses, raisins and even some grapes. There's also some vanilla and wood sweetness with some licorice thrown in. Definitely a sweet aroma.
The taste follows the aroma with a cola sweetness up front. It's got some chocolate, vanilla and dark fruits as well. Got some banana sweetness in the finish with a bit of dry woodiness.
The mouthfeel is very slick with lower carbonation than I expected.
I had high hopes for this when I cracked it but it didn't quite live up to my expectations. It's very sweet but not a lot of complexity. A good beer but not one I'll go back to.

a - pours deep dark brown, not quite black, smallish tan head with retention around the edges and minimal lacing
s - some roasted malt, but it's overwhelmed by the cherry, brown sugar and oak additions, slight licorice aroma as well, really "fake" smelling, unfortunately
t - roasted malt and toastiness up front, but a big burst of sweetness, marked by cherry and oak, on the mid-palate, finish is pretty sweet as well with the brown sugar and vanilla making their appearance, almost completely overwhelming the roasted/black patent malt flavors that mark most Baltics, in my opinion, the additions to this beer (cherry, brown sugar, vanilla beans, oak) have taken over the beer, a little hot
m - medium-bodied with moderate carbonation fairly sweet finish, not very much drying, definite alcohol warming
d - a bit too sweet and hot to be overly drinkable, but this is a 9.8% beer, so drinkability is not the aim, a lot of flavors going on, so it gets points for that
Overall, a somewhat disappointing offering, in my opinion. As stated above, I feel the additives have overwhelmed the base beer.

Best Guesses: NFL Football Picks - Week 4
Jon Webb's picks for Week 4 of the NFL season
The last time the Colts ran the ball so well, they were terrible.
Ahmad Bradshaw, Trent Richardson and Andrew Luck combined for 179 yards rushing against San Francisco on Sunday, recording the team's best game on the ground since the glory days of Dan Orlovsky.
On Dec. 18, 2011, Donald Brown ran for 162 of the Colts' 205 rushing yards to help Indy top the Titans and tally the team's first win of the season. In Week 15.
Orlovsky started under center that day. You may remember him for captaining the 0-16 Lions in 2008. Or for being the third quarterback choice on the post-Manning, pre-Luck Colts. Or for planning the Bay of Pigs invasion in 1961.*
(*I may be thinking of someone else. Nope. Wikipedia says it was Orlovsky.)
Things are different for the Colts now. After such a jolting turnaround, a season like 2012 could feel like an aberration. After all, Indy was fueled by emotion: Chuck Pagano's brave battle with cancer; Luck's record-setting rookie campaign; the team's own desire to prove they weren't headed to the corner of Jaguars Street and Browns Boulevard.
But emotion had nothing to do with beating the 49ers. What we saw was a calculating football team that defeated a preseason Super Bowl favorite by tabling its usual strength — passing — and going with what worked.
The Colts won't have to wait long for a similar performance. And Orlovsky will be nowhere in sight.
Home teams listed first.
Rams vs. 49ers
Winner: 49ers
Why?: ESPN reported, if screeching second-hand information from Twitter can be called "reporting," that 49ers quarterback Colin Kaepernick uses negative tweets as "fuel."
Good news, Colin. The tank is full.
Since stomping on the Packers in Week One, Kaepernick has only thrown 277 yards, zero touchdowns and four interceptions.
Whether that changes against St. Louis, I don't know, but a mix of desperation and a renewed commitment to the run game should be enough for the 49ers to top the Rams, who gave up 175 yards rushing to DeMarco Murray in an eviscerating 31-7 loss to the Cowboys last week. Plus, the Rams will have trouble duplicating the Colts' success on the ground. St. Louis' best rushing performance so far this season came in Week One when Daryl Richardson compiled 63 yards on 20 carries.
Bills vs. Ravens
Winner: Ravens
Why?: I have no idea, because the Ravens don't seem to be good at anything. Their pass defense ranks somewhere between last and a strong breeze, their best skill player (Ray Rice) is hurt and in their first two games they endured a prison beating against the Broncos and barely slipped past the Browns: a squad, before last week, that looked more like the Holy Christian Tabernacle Flag Football team than an NFL organization.
Then they beat the Texans, a team that's pretty good at everything. The NFL makes my brain play Twister.
Browns vs. Bengals
Winner: Bengals
Why?: Speaking of the Holy Christian Tabernacle Flag Football Team.
The Browns and Bengals are both coming off their most exciting wins in awhile. The Bengals' thrilling, turnover-jamboree victory over the Packers proves they are elite. The Browns' upending of the Vikings, days after leaving the season for dead, proves they're not awful.
Elite usually beats not awful.
Lions vs. Bears
Winner: Lions
Why?: Chicago allowed a previously lifeless Steelers passing attack to amass more than 400 yards through the air last Sunday. With the loss of defensive tackle Henry Melton, a Chicago pass rush that's only managed five sacks through three games will be further weakened against the Lions, the second-best passing team in the league. A lingering groin problem for Charles Tillman also leaves Chicago with a reduced version of its best pass defender. Not a good thing when going against Wildebeest-with-thumbs Calvin Johnson.
But I really have no idea. I chose the Lions, then the Bears, then back again.
The indecision about this pick has bled over into other areas of my life. When I got up to take my dog for a walk, I had to choose between my boots or my sneakers. I haven't left the house in two days.
Chiefs vs. Giants
Winner: Chiefs
Why?: Kansas City's biggest weakness is a porous run defense (25th). Guess what the Giants can't do?
Trick question. They can't do anything.
Buccaneers vs. Cardinals
Winner: Cardinals
Why?: Tampa Bay benched Josh Freeman for something called Mike Glennon. An unnamed team source compared Freeman to a "roller coaster" this week, but I've never heard of a roller coaster that starts off on a straight line, dips a little bit and then derails.
Jaguars vs. Colts
Winner: Colts
Why?: I shouldn't need to provide a reason.
"But wait," you may say. "The Jaguars swept the Colts last year and have won four of the last six in the series."
Now listen: This isn't your column. There's no need to bust in here and start shouting statistics about the Jaguars. I know about the Jaguars, OK? I'm a football expert who correctly predicted nine of 16 games last week. What do you mean that's not very good? If I were an NFL team, that record would get me into the playoffs. Yeah, in a bad year, but that's not ... how did this turn into a personal attack? YOU'RE the one who thinks the Jaguars can beat the Colts. Where do you get off lecturing me?
Texans vs. Seahawks
Winner: Seahawks
Why?: Richard Sherman vs. Andre Johnson! Never have I been more excited to see 10 passes either fly out of bounds or get tipped at the last second.
The game also reunites Madden 25 commercial stars Arian Foster and Marshawn Lynch. In the commercial, the running backs play exaggerated (?) versions of their own fathers, who supposedly pushed their sons to train against bears and 1,000-pound weights just so they (the fathers) could play each other in Madden as their own sons.
It's called create-a-player, fellas. No need to give the 8-year-olds hernias.
Vikings vs. Steelers (in London)
Winner: Steelers
Why?: Nothing like two 0-3 teams to stoke the British people's passion for American football.
Pittsburgh gets the edge due to its sudden willingness to throw the ball more than two yards downfield. Antonio Brown hauled in nine catches for 196 yards. Aside from Brown's 33- and 21-yard touchdown receptions, he also snagged a 45-yarder, one of at least six Steeler receptions of 21 yards or more. Pittsburgh's passing game is set for another solid day against Minnesota's 28th-ranked pass defense.
Plus, Le'Veon Bell returns for Pittsburgh, which thus far this season has compiled running numbers comparable an obese basset hound chasing a fire truck.
Titans vs. Jets
Winner: Titans
Why?: Despite Jake Locker's game-saving 34-yard toss to Justin Hunter last week, the Titans can't throw the ball. But they can do everything else. Tennessee ranks seventh in rushing and seventh in total defense.
Raiders vs. Redskins
Winner: Redskins
Why?: The Raiders will either have no Tyrelle Pryor (concussion) or a reduced version of him.
Broncos vs. Eagles
Winner: Broncos
Why?: Denver's Peyton Manning and Philadelphia's LeSean McCoy could combine for a season's worth of multipurpose yards in a matchup of the league's top passing team (Broncos) and top rushing team (Eagles).
But the Eagles suffer from some big weaknesses. Philly is allowing 323 yards passing a game, not to mention 115 on the ground. The Broncos (30th) are pretty awful against the pass, but that's mostly because of loose coverages brought on by big leads.
The season is very young, but Manning is on track to throw for 6,096 yards and 64 touchdowns. Both are NFL records. By a lot.
Chargers vs. Cowboys
Winner: Cowboys
Why?: San Diego is a few yards shy of boasting the worst defense in the league.
Falcons vs. Patriots
Winner: Falcons
Why?: The Patriots face their first test, and it comes in the form of a beat-up, but still high-powered offense desperate for a victory.
Saints vs. Dolphins
Winner: Saints
Why?: I've picked against the Dolphins all three weeks this season. And this time, I'll be right. Maybe.
The 3-0 Dolphins can kind of pass, not really run and defend some of the time. I don't like my elite teams bland. If Miami made the Super Bowl, I'd spend the evening watching Dan Orlovsky YouTube compilations.
But the Saints? Oh, the Saints are fun. Insane Creole fans! Bounty hunting! Drew Brees' birthmark!
And they're 13-4 at home over the past two-plus seasons.
Nick's picks
