Water {Levi x Reader}[modern au][Blind!Levi x Reader]"Levi! I'm here!" [Name] called. Said man appeared in the doorway, a long red-and-white cane smacking against the floor- and pieces of furniture- as he slowly made his way toward the sound of the girl's loud, and rather obnoxious voice, no matter how satisfied he was to hear it."What took you so long, [Name]?" She rolled her eyes at his lazy, disinterested tone and kicked her shoes off of her feet. The two of them had only recently been on a first name basis, as he previously refused to call her anything but "brat"."I was at the market. The new Swiffer thing was there, so I picked it up for you," [Name] explained, earning a grunt of approval from Levi. She walked to the kitchen to put groceries away, stopping only to set the cleaning item in the closet and leaving Levi in the living room. He followed the girl, leaning on the doorway that led to his kitchen."You're a horrible caretaker. It shouldn't take so long to get here. What if I fell or somethi

You've wasted enough time already."--"Hey. It's Eren. We really miss having you around. Things haven't been so bright without you. Everyone's so upset, especially the Corporal. He's been even worse without you there to calm him down. Any longer and he'll slice one of us in half. So hurry up, okay, [Name]?"Your eyes cracked open, only to shut tightly again at the intense light. The thought of sleep was calling you again, beckoning you into its dark depths."Hey, [Name]. It's Hanji. Sorry to disappoint, if you were expecting Levi, but he's having a rough time. He really needs you. Please come back. We've made some really neat findings recently. I need your help with the research, y'know."You scowled. Whoever the voice belonged to was starting to get on your nerves. 'No. Go away.'"Listen, [Name]. This is the only th
Nightmares {Armin x Reader}Imagine your favorite character having a nightmare about something bad that happened to them and waking up shaking and inconsolable, crying and desperately clinging to you, sobbing, "Just stay with me, please just stay with me.""Don't worry, we're gonna make it. We're gonna make it, I promise.""No, we aren't! Are you blind?""[Name], we can figure this out! I won't leave you!""Armin, stop. It's okay if you leave me behind. I won't hold it against you.""I'll hold it against myself! I'm not leaving you to the Titans, and that's final!"You stood there, shaking your head. You had to convince him to leave you, or he'd be eaten himself."Armin... Weren't you the one who said 'People who can't throw something important away, can never hope to change anything'?"Armin stopped. You were right, he did say those words."[Name], I-""Armin, you want to change things, don't you? You have to leave me to do that. I'll be okay. I can hide in one of the basement
Words Won't Work[Eren x Deaf!Dancer!Reader][modern au]Eren sighed. He felt like he was about to throw up, his hands were shaking, and he could feel sweat beading down his forehead. He wasn't sure if he should go through with it. Maybe he should just turn around and head home, forget about it, and try to tell her some other time.'No. I've gotta tell her now. I'm already here, so why not? I'm positive she'll say yes. I can do this,' he thought. And with that, he stepped in, out of the cold streets and into the warm, humid atmosphere of the studio.There she was, dressed in black leggings and a large sweater that hung off her shoulder, moving precisely to the bass that shook the building. Eren felt his face heat up. He loved seeing her dance.Standing off to the side, Eren's mind was focused elsewhere while he watched the girl move around the room, replaying the conversation he had with her brother that morning in his head."You want to date my sister.""Yes.""You want to date my sister.""
Protection {Eren x Reader}Imagine getting a detailed, handsewn plushie of your favorite character in the mail one day from a mysterious sender, and whenever you're in danger or distress the plushie turns into a flesh-and-blood version of that character to protect and comfort you.{Eren Jaeger x Reader}"NO! NO, NOT PETRA, DAMNIT! STOP! LET HER LIVE! LET HER LIVE, PLEASE!" you yelled, bawling your eyes out and trying to convince the Female Titan to let Petra go.When said creature threw Petra into a tree, you cried out again, tears flying everywhere. God damnit, you couldn't stand to watch another one die, but sadly, fate had other ideas, and you cried out once more as Oluo was met with the hands of Death as well.Dong.The loud noise snapped you back to reality and you froze, wondering who could possibly be at your door. You had few friends, and even they wouldn't just randomly appear at your door step.You decide to get up and go check it, seeing as you couldn't bear the brutal anime that was cur
Couldn't Be Happier[Eren Jeager x Reader]Eren was exhausted.No, scratch that. He was ready to drop dead. Eren was positive he would pass out on the ground before he got to the barracks.'That doesn't sound half bad,' he thought to himself."Hey, Eren?" a soft voice called to him from behind, sounding almost as tired as he was.With a roll of his eyes and an exasperated sigh, he turned around and asked, "What now?"You bit your lip. Okay, maybe this could wait tomorrow, when he wasn't so-No. You needed to do it now."Can you come with me for a bit? I want to talk to you, if that's okay."Eren wasn't one to turn you down. He didn't really want to, either; your presence was comforting to him, and he liked to spend time with you as well. He found himself happiest around you, but he wasn't sure why."Sure. What's wrong?" he asked as you grabbed his hand and pulled him away from the building and instead towards the more secluded area of the camp."Nothing, nothing at all. I just want to show you some
Someone Like You {Karkat x Reader, Sadstuck?}[Human!Karkat x Reader]{I hate to turn up out of the blue, uninvitedBut I couldn't stay away,} [Name]'s head swung towards the door when it burst open, revealing her extremely grumpy best friend. "WHAT THE HELL, [NAME]? I TOLD YOU, I DIDN'T WANT TO SEE YOU UNTIL-" Karkat stopped mid-sentence when he heard the girl hiccup. He grew worried, even more so when he saw her shoulders shaking.{I couldn't fight it} Karkat took [Name]'s hand and pulled her inside, into his living room. She had kept her head low when she walked in, but she didn't resist his albino hand when he lifted her chin, forcing her [eye color] orbs to make contact with his red ones.{I'd hoped you'd see my face} Tears were streaming down her face and dripping onto Karkat's hand. He couldn't care less at the moment. His worried expression morphed into a downcast one, and he- begrudgingly- asked, "What happened?" Even if he already knew the answer.{And that you'd be
Overworked[Rin Matsuoka x Reader]With a bright screen and a dim light, your eyes are itching and it's hard to keep them open.Here you are, writing a report for biochemical engineering at 2:30 in the morning. You would've fallen asleep long ago, if not for your boyfriend's amazing coffee-making skills."Hey, Rin?" you call out, feeling a little guilty for making him stay up late with you. He has a swim meet or something tomorrow, and although he had a long nap earlier in the day, you don't want him to be tired when swimming."Yeah?""Can you make me another cup? I can barely keep my eyes open.""Give me a minute."You wouldn't have to be here, but your computer shut down in the middle of your typing earlier; the battery had heated up too much, and you lost at least half of your document. And this report is due tomorrow.Ever since, you've been saving every five minutes.Briefly, you close your eyes and rub them softly, before turning down the brightness on your computer. Your legs are numb from
Doggie Doors and Unlocked Bathrooms[Makoto Tachibana x Reader]"Alright, sweetie, today's the day. I know you loathe it just as much as I do, but you'll be good for me, right?""ARF!"...You will take that as a yes, for now; the poor thing doesn't yet know the terror she'll be put through.As you pick up the phone to call a certain someone, you hesitate."...No, Haru would be a bad idea. Mako can help me."---This goddamn dog.You love your pet lab to death, but she's such a pain to bathe-- someone has to literally carry the 65 pound canine, lock the door, and block the bath tub.And you, being the weak little creature you are, can't do that.You'll never invite Nagisa over, and Rei had already said no. Haru would've been a better choice, you're sure of that now. Stupid hesitation and dumb second-guessing.Don't they always say to trust your instincts?With no one else to turn to, you've called your boyfriend, Makoto Tachibana, to come help you, and that probably wasn't the best idea."God damnit Mako, hold her down!

mistletoe. bertholdt fubar x readerYou were on your tiptoes, even if you were given averagely tall, you could not reach the top of the Christmas Tree still. Grunting in deafeat, you sat down on the nearest chair and put your hand on your chin, thinking of a way to get to the top parts of the tree.A plan bubbled in your mind as you looked back at the chair you were sat down on, and stood up. As you placed a hand on the back rest of the chair, you noted it was a little wobbly, unstable even. Could it be safe if you stood on it? Well as long as you won't move too much, you guessed it would be fine.The legs of the chairs made scraping sounds as you pulled it near the tree. Giving it one last wobble, you flung both your feet in the flat surface, and started mending the tree.Ah, this might not be your brightest idea yet, it's one of those brilliant ideas of yours that sent you tumbling down the floor bum first. You felt out of balanced, and your body weight was sent falling to the right side. You closed your eyes, bracing
RQ: Bertholdt x Reader: Cuddly"Bertl?"The voice came as a small whisper from the doorway of the room as a small ray of light pierced the darkness and made itself home on the brunette's sleeping face. The tall lanky boy stirred but did not awake to your call. "Berty?" You tried again, opening the door a bit wider, allowing more light into the room, enough to disturb Bertholdt from his peaceful slumber. His eyes fluttered open, focusing and unfocusing for a moment before turning towards the source of the light, and your face. "(Name)?" he asked groggily, a hand raising itself to cover his eyes. You nodded, hugging the blanket around your body closer to your form. "Yeah..." You muttered, opening the door a bit wider to reveal yourself. Bertholdt's hand covered his eyes against the light with a groan. "Uhn...what's wrong?" he asked uncertainly. You shuffled your feet and looked down shyly."I couldn't sleep." You muttered in reply, shuffling into the room and closing the door behind you.
Sleeping Positions (Modern AU Bertholdt x Reader)Reiner and (Name) had always taken care of Bertholdt like a child. He was constantly being picked on in some way or another. She always stood up for him quick to defend. And Reiner would be his comfort.Bertl sat on the edge of the bed he shared with Reiner letting out a sigh."Something up?" Reiner asked."I want to ask to stay the night with (Name)." Bertholdt told him."Ask her she's never said no before, her parents like us and she has a bunk bed even though she has no siblings." Reiner said lifting weights."But it's not just that. I want to cuddle her this time." Bertholdt told him with a blush on his cheeks.Reiner stopped lifting turning toward him raising an eyebrow in question."Well I mean I really like, do you think she likes me? Like that at least?" Bertlholdt asked."Well…" Reiner said trailing off. "She's never mentioned liking anyone you might have a shot." Reine
BertholdtxReader - PranksIt was Sasha's idea. The girls were to sneak out in the middle of the night and tip toe into the guys' room, each with a target, each with a can of whipped cream. It was decided that Sasha's target was Connie, Mikasa's was Eren, Krista's was Reiner, Ymir's was Jean and yours was Bertholdt. You felt kind of bad about being the one to prank him, he was your boyfriend after all. Then again, that would mean you'd be the only one to do it. You shrugged it off and grabbed your can."You guys ready?" Sasha said, whirling her can around in a circle. Everyone nodded and shook their cans up, making sure they wouldn't have to later.You started by sneaking out of the room, not getting any attention from anyone. Luckily, you didn't run into anyone outside either. Reaching the side of the barrack they were staying in, everyone began tip toeing to the front of it. Sasha slowly walked up the few steps and opened the door, which didn't creak, to everyone's surprise. Each girl spotted their target and
That Tall Day Care Guy (Modern AU! Bert x Reader)"Ah! I'm so late!" I cursed and grabbed my keys. My parents had left me with the responsibility of picking up my little sister from her daycare. I came home an hour ago from school and the whole ordeal had totally slipped my mind.I was most likely speeding the whole way to the daycare but I really couldn't care less. My poor baby sister, alone, by herself, waiting for her big sis to come pick her up, was all that occupied my mind. By the time I pulled up at the parking lot, it was empty save for a couple other cars that most likely belonged to the staff.From what I could remember, my sister's room was the third door on the right from the entrance. On the door, painted an ugly shade of orange, was a sign that said room 6. I guess this is it. The old door dangerously screeched as I turned the knob, like it was about to pop off the hinges and roll its way down to Neverland. Only two people were left inside, my sister, and a very tall man.The poor guy was h
Bertl's Guide To Getting A Girlfriend || Chapter 1"I-I-If you w-were a booger, I'd p-pick you..."Bertholdt stared at her, anxiously waiting for a reply. Never in his life had he ever worked up enough courage to say something like that. He'd often watch Reiner work his magic on a girl he'd have his eye on, and Bertholdt would find himself wondering how he could do that with such a straight face. Right now, Bertholdt was the complete opposite: he was blushing like crazy, and almost on the verge of crying.(y/n) simply blinked her eyes a few times, as if trying to process what Bertholdt just said. Did he really use a pickup line on her? That was so unlike Bertholdt. Surely she didn't hear him properly. "Sorry, what was that?""U-uh, what I-I meant to say w-was that, uh," Bertholdt racked his brain for some sort of witty response, but nothing came to his mind. Suddenly, he remembered all those pickup lines Reiner would often use. Regaining a tiny bit of his confidence back, Bertholdt spoke up, "Life without you is like a broken man
RQ: Marco x Reader: PeekingIt took some time for Marco to wake up that morning. Of course, he had all the right to remain hidden away underneath the quilts and blankets in your bed. Spending the night in the girl's bunk with you was against the rules, and if he was caught, well...Keith Shadis would have his head, or maybe his freckles, who knew.He couldn't help himself, honestly. After cuddling with you last night, he knew he wouldn't be able to get to bed until you were next to him. So he managed to quietly sneak out of the Boy's dorm and slip into your bunk, much to your delight and surprise. You two had spent the night wrapped in each other's arms.And now, the girls were preparing for another day of training. The dorm was filled with the chatter and giggles of a dozen girls. It took most of Marco's restraint not to sneak a glance from underneath the massive pile of blankets he was hiding in. Yet he couldn't help but watch you as you dressed and prepared for the day. "Hey, who decided to let that draft
Ten Feet Tall (Levi x Reader x Bertholdt) RQHe'd tried to deny it. Every fucking second of his life he denied it with every fibre of his being. It was something that would only, could only, lead to heartache and pain, and yet the more he lied to himself, the more it became completely and utterly futile. The second you walked into a room, the second you cast your soft gaze his way, the defences he had built up to keep you out came crashing down, and you invaded every crevice of his mind.Levi could no longer deny it – he had fallen, hard.But he was not the first.Bertholdt Fubar had been infatuated with you from day one, bending to your every whim, following you around everywhere like a lost puppy.More like a giraffe.Levi could see the affection in your eyes when you looked at him, the way your lips unconsciously curved into a small smile when he was around. Only Levi noticed the lingering touches, the pink tinge in your cheeks when he smiled.Yet every now and then, he would see something in y
Bertl's Guide To Getting A Girlfriend || PrologueSweaty hands were fidgeting with the edge of a small leather book, as Bertholdt looked at Reiner for reassurance."Are you sure this will help me?" Bertholdt timidly asked as his eyes nervously shifted around the room."Are you kidding me?" A hearty laugh erupted from Reiner's throat as he spoke, "From past experiences, I can guarantee that you'll get any girl you want by the end of the week, with the help of this book!""Any girl... I want?" Bertholdt's gaze hesitantly shifted towards a certain girl in the room. As if she felt his stare, she turned her head around and was met with a pair of shining, emerald eyes. The girl gave a small smile followed by a wave as Bertholdt's cheeks flushed a deep red. Quickly, he averted his eyes back to the book in his large palms. "You sure?""Yes," Reiner slapped his large hand on Bertholdt's back, almost knocking the wind out of him. "Any girl you want... including her." Reiner gave a wink as he nodded his head towards the direction o
Realization {Bertholdt x Reader}Imagine being in a long distance relationship with your favorite character. You two always talk on skype and put the webcam on. One day though, your favorite character tells you they're gonna shower but forget to disable the webcam. You don't care and wait for them to come back and talk again, but when they enter the room, you can see them only in a towel. Embarassed you eventually tell them via the mic that they forgot to disable the webcam. You see them running flustered to the computer to disable the webcam and tell you how sorry they are.{Bertholdt x Reader}Good god, you were excited.The school bell finally rang, and you were, as always, the first one out. Your hurried behavior was questionable to some, but your group of friends only giggled and shook their heads."There she goes! The one day we get out early, and she's already off to see him. He's probably not even awake.""Oh, stop it, [Best Friend's Name]! You know how [Name] gets with him. Besides,

Handshake between prosecutor, defendant draws some attention
The handshake was caught on camera by a pool photographer, Associated Press photographer Jim Cole, and was featured on the New Hampshire Union Leader front page and news websites throughout the state.
Scott Murray, the Merrimack County Attorney, said it happened more often when he worked in District Court, a faster system where prosecutors speak face-to-face with defendants before court starts.
Hillsborough County Attorney Patricia LaFrance said a handshake can follow when a defendant and prosecutor agree to a plea bargain. LaFrance said she'll often tell the convict she never wants to see him again, except at the supermarket.
Young, who has been prosecuting criminals for 24 years, said prosecutors don't relish their job. She'd prefer a crime-free world where she wouldn't have any work.
The handshake had an impact on Arsenault's boss, Manchester Bishop Peter Libasci.
"I see Jane Young's accepting that handshake as an example of what we mean when we speak of the dignity of all people," Libasci said.

Hot answers tagged windows
You're dealing with a basic fact of nature, water condenses on cold objects, so you need to either remove the water or the cold objects. The windows will typically be the coldest objects in your home since they have such a low R value. Start by reducing the humidity in your home, run exhaust fans in the kitchen and bathroom for longer when cooking and ...
1. New roof. If you've got a leaky roof, you've got big problems. 2. New Siding. Since it sounds like you'll be adjusting the thickness of the walls, it makes sense to complete this job before anything else that will be installed on/in the wall. 3. New Gutters. Depending on what shape the gutters are in, this might move up or down the list. If they are ...
I had a similar problem. It was easy enough to remove the window, and take it to my local glass shop. They had a new pane put in by the next day. If it's a screened window, you can do this when the weather is nice. Otherwise, you'll need to cut a piece of plywood to block the hole while it's being repaired.

The wall seems to have 'full dimension' studs and the markings of old lath and plaster. I don't see plywood sheathing on the exterior walls. All in all I'm guessing that your house was built prior to WWII and is either 'post and beam' or 'balloon frame' construction, both of which are radically different in terms of structure and loads from modern ...
Passive infrared sensors (PIR), use Infrared (IR) light to detect motion. Unfortunately for you, infrared light does not travel through glass so well.
An arch (if engineered correctly) is self supporting. No need for a lintel at all. From the looks of it, that arch is more than adequate to hold the brick above so I'd say that wooden piece is merely a filler--not a structural element.
There are two things working together to make water condense on the windows. The house is humid, and the windows are cold (even well-insulated windows will usually be the coldest thing in the house because of the low R-value compared to walls and ceilings). To prevent the condensation, you can remove the humidity or make the windows warmer. Removing ...
Most code states that all railing balusters must be spaced no more than 4" apart to prevent a child from inserting their head. So, that is one measurement you could use...if you don't want anyone's head to get through: 4". Of course, also make sure you can't get an arm through that could reach the window lock. Edit by OP: According to ...
Very interesting situation. First off, replacing perfectly good vinyl windows is not going to help you from what I see on your pics. Simple weeping drains around windows is not going to help much with all the moisture I see on walls, ceilings and floor. I would suggest you have someone come in with an infrared scanner and make a sweep of the building to ...
You may be able to run the screw right into the framing with out using the anchors. It will hold much better if it is framing and not wood lath or masonry. if the brackets are directly over the window, you may have found the header.
The only logical that comes to my mind is an awning of some sort. If you get a big enough one, most direct light will be lost and you should have the same amount of airflow.
You don't need the manufacturer. Glass repair is common enough - there should be at least one window/glass repair shops around. The repair process generally consists of the repair guy measuring the glass, preparing a replacement pane in a shop, then bringing it back to the house and replacing the glass while the window is in the wall. The downside is it's ...
I realize that you don't want to proceed with the project but I thought I'd answer anyway in case someone else is curious. I am a licensed contractor and my company specializes in basement remodeling; we have done several window expansions or additions in concrete foundations. A few things: You definitely need a permit for this project (though you don't ...
Rough openings are exactly as they are called, rough. Yours sounds extra rough though. All rough openings are made to have space to add shims, sometimes the rough openings, because of conditions, can only take shims on one side or the other. As a rule of thumb I usually do not use no more than 2 shims on a side. If the rough opening (RO) has need for more, ...
Removal is your best bet. Whether you use a heat gun, which much care will be needed since burning what will be bare wood eventually can easily occur. Also you will need to wear a respirator to get past any harmful fumes from the off gassing of the heated paint. Various shapes of scrapers will still be needed to clear out the crevices to freshen up the look ...
The oil that you applied to the crank joints is doing several things. Foremost it has eliminated the dryness in the joints that led to the squeaking. It is flushing out the years worth of wear dust and particulate that collected in the joints from operating them without lubrication. Oil present on the joints now will be a magnet for new dust and dirt from ...
Your options are: Use a second layer of 1/2" drywall to bring the wall flush to the window; Trim the window casing down by 1/2"; or Use inch thick trim on the window casing. Personally I recommend #2 and would use what's called a Japanese saw: or a multi-tool with a wood blade to trim the casing down to be flush with the wall.
As mac has mentioned, an energy audit is a logical starting point. I would shop for a "blower door" test that measures actual system air leakage. The other test would be a thermal IR scan, that will reveal relative hot/cold spots. Some utilities offer discounted audits.
Anything can be done but it's hard for me to believe this is a DIY project. You will need to find a way to bridge over the window with an arch or header in such a way that the load is adequately supported. Also if the wall is important to the lateral strength of the building (and an exterior solid masonry wall probably is), you need to make sure the entire ...
There are a number of companies that provide windows with high STC ratings. The series 7000 windows from http://www.silent-guard.com appear to have STC of 40 and above. There are many other manufacturers that sell sound attenuating windows. I believe you are correct that to get what you want you'll have to specify specific windows. The way you describe ...
OK. You were right in all of you assertions. Really basic picture of a properly framed window. The contractor should not step foot in your house again. He is a moron. He can't even make a good excuse. Also and this is worse than the improper framing technique. The current layout is in no way set at right angles.
From looking at your pictures I can say that it was not done correctly. Sad part is that it is so easy to do it correctly when the studs are all open. There really should be doubled headers above and below the window. They should, in both cases, be resting on the top of studs that extend from the ends of the header down to a bearing surface all the way to ...
How about permanently mounting lift-off hinges or something similar to the window frames, and using the mating part on the plywood to secure the boards to the windows?
I seem to remember using Windex.. Long soak, cover with plastic wrap for 30-60 min, scrape carefully with wide (6 to 8 inch) putty knife or drywall blade or wall paper knife. I was able to save my first new vehicle sticker.
I had a similar problem and added a length of corrugated tubing to my existing downspouts. What was happening is that the water came down the downspouts too close to the house. It did not have time to soak into the ground and pooled around the foundation. So using some black corrugated pipe and the right adapters got that water 5-10 feet from the house. ...
You can stack molding. Perhaps a piece of square stock, then a separate quarter round "shoe molding" as you illustrated. Be sure to keep your hardwood floor expansion gap intact. Complex molding is often built up from simpler shapes: once painted you never notice.
You can get a Tilt and Turn window - a window that tilts inwards slightly (and locks in place so that it doesn't tip back anymore) to let air circulate, but can also be opened as a traditional window too (albeit one that typically opens inwards instead of outwards).
I like the answer JonW gave, but also would suggest just putting an awning over your existing window and opening it from the top as it's likely to be a bit less expensive. Edit: I passed this house fixed type awning system and decided to grab a shot to add t this post
Those 27 inch blinds you link to are top mount and will fit in a 27.5 inch opening without modification. But there are also side mount ones that would also work but you would need to add a 1/4 inch shim to both sides or a 1/2 inch shim to one side. Most blinds can't be simply cut down in width except those that are designed to be cut to length.
This tree, not the one you should be barking up, is. PIRs do NOT work though glass. Put it outside.

At an honors award meeting with the Dean I voiced the unpopular words that the mechanical skills required much more effort than the academic ones. I even become a commercial, multi engine and instrument rated pilot. In the end, I value the "mechanic" title the most.

Unit-Nonresponse bei erstbefragten Betrieben im IAB-Betriebspanel
Abstract"The aim of this paper is to analyze unit-nonresponse for establishments surveyed for the first time in the IAB Establishment Panel. Therefore a theoretical framework is presented which helps to explain nonresponse in establishment surveys. Empirical results mainly confirm this framework. If the respondent has the authority to provide relevant information and is able to give reliable answers to the questions with a justifiable amount of effort, participation is less frequently refused. Both aspects are highly correlated with establishment size and the complexity of the firm. It can also be shown that experienced and professional interviewers are more successful in recruiting firms to take part in the survey. However this result only holds for smaller establishments."

3.13/5 rDev -17.6%
Reviewed from notes.
Pours a moderate brown color with a bit of a white head. The nose is some very slight caramel and a bit of bread. Some toffee. The taste is really plain and actually brings in a tiny amount of light cardboard. Mouthfeel is medium with average carbonation. The flavor interferes with enjoyment here and this, all around, is not a terribly great beer.

3.66/5 rDev -3.7%
A: The beer is slightly hazy yellowish amber in color and has a slight amount of visible carbonation. It poured with a short beige colored head that quickly died down, leaving lacing on the surface and a thin collar around the edge of the glass.
S: Moderate aromas of toasted malts are present in the nose along with some hints of cracker malts.
T: Similar to the smell, the taste starts out rather malty with lots of flavors of toasted malts with an ever so slight amount of sweetness but this is mostly balanced off by the underlying hops, which contribute a slight amount of bitterness.
M: It feels light- to medium-bodied on the palate and has a moderate amount of carbonation.
O: This beer had a good balance between the malts and hops but seemed to be a little lighter in body compared to other Oktoberfest biers.

One smooth pour generated a single finger of putty colored foam atop a crystal clear beer the color of ripe pumpkins. Too bad the head melts to a barely covering film at the several minute mark, leaving a short collar of lace as it does so. Not bad, not good.
Those words could also be used to describe the aroma. The beer isn't quite as toasted or earthy as most versions, which allows a coarse, grainy huskiness to be appreciated. It smells better once it warms, with toasted peanuts coming to the forefront.
Oktoberfest tastes pretty much like it smells, although it comes off a little better in liquid form. If you like full-flavored O-fests that feature toasted cereal grains, not much malty sweetness and a wee shot of alcohol, dive right in. Refined is not a word that comes to mind. Then again, this stuff would probably hold its own with most foods.
The beer is beginning to grow on me over the course of twelve fluid ounces. I'm still not tempted to give it a 'good' score, however. The German hops (a guess) stay neck and neck with the malts for most of the mouthful, then pull ahead on the crisp, drying finish. This is a unique take on the style that would be a good change of pace if one becomes tired of the same old, same old.
Although the mouthfeel is a mite thin and spritzy, it works in the grand scheme of things. Lush and laid back would not fit the flavor profile at all. Just be prepared for some tongue tingle and a whole lotta burps.
Penn Pilsner is good and the St. Nikolaus Bock Biers are exceptional. Penn Oktoberfest doesn't meet that high standard, but it's a worthwhile effort all the same. Nice label too.

Appearance: Pours a clear honey color with a frothy head that leaves some lacing behind
Smell: Subtle wafts of toasted malt, caramel and a touch of hops
Taste: Starts out with a mouth full of caramel malt flavor; after the swallow, the modest hoppy flavors kick in followed by a disconcerting lemony but metallic finish
Mouthfeel: Surprisingly full bodied with good carbonation
Drinkability: One of the better Oktoberfests out there and certainly shows off some of the elements of the style

Again, a pretty ordinary beer from Penn. Though their Oktoberfest is tasty enough, it misses the marks on the details that make German Oktoberfests so great.
A bright orange/copper hue shows aggressive carbonation, bright clarity, and allows a dainty white head to form before rapidly disipating.
Very sweet with caramel and barley malt. Light grain scent and sulfur provide the few distractions. Still, pretty simplistic nose.
Flavors are very sweet with straight-forward caramel taste. Light apple flavor is a bit odd. Malty but not with the soft, elegant, and complex maltiness that rounds out good Marzens. Hops struggle to offset the bold sweetness and with no herbal flavor. Sulfur notes remind me of match-sticks.
Sweet up front but with a fleeting maltiness, leaving the beer feeling a bit weak and scrubbed because of the carbonation-sulfur mix.
The Oktoberfest is a fine beer especially for the sweet-tooths out there.

Big thanks goes out to Ben for sending me this fine Northeast fest bier. I have been trying as many as possible this year, and I was thrilled to get a hold of a few bottles of this one. Served cold, right out of the fridge and poured into a pint glass. This one was consumed on 10/18/2008.
The pour was very nice. Medium amber in color with a really nice amount of clarity to it. Nice carbonation could be seen coming through the bottom of the glass all the way up to the top and converging into a nice tight head of white foam that sat on top for a good few moments before falling back down, leaving nice, tight side glass lacing.
The aroma was full, nice bready malts leading the way on this one. Light and airy at the same time though as some nice touches of earthy hops, fresh grass, and a nice grainy profile all started to take hold rather nicely after a while. More of the same on the flavor. Crisp and clean, with a good helping of grain thrown in. Nice dose of caramel and biscuit like malts thrown in for good measure now as the flavor just pops on the tongue. Nice follow through and a bit of a sly bitterness as the grassy hops melt down and allow that nice bready malt profile to really shine. Nice medium body with a n great carbonation profile fits the style wonderfully, and every melds together to form a very nice, and very session able light lager.
Overall I thought this one was very solid. In the upper end of the fest biers I have tried this year for sure. I would have no issue at all with getting this one again any day.

From a 750 ml bottle. The label reads "2008" but it's really 2009.
A: Slightly hazy orange amber body. Creamy antique-white head.
S: Malty, as might be expected, with a hint of toasted malt, and a suggestion of caramel. Some delicate floral hops are present as well, as is a hint of fruitiness.
T: The flavor delivers more of everything than the nose suggests, but it's still not overly malty like many examples of the style. On the other hand, I do think it could have used a touch more malt. The caramel comes out nicely, and some spicy hops appear along with the floral characteristics. A solid bitterness balances it, and it finishes dry as the hop flavors slowly flitter away.
M: Medium bodied and gently crisp. There's just enough carbonation to cut through the maltiness and gently bristle the tongue.
D: Personally I'd prefer a little more balance towards maltiness, but I can't fault it. Nicely done!

Pours a tinted ruby copper tone and forms a nice full cream colored two finger sized head leaves scattered thickets of lace. Aroma has a nutty warming malt sweetness with some flowing hallertau hops nice floral and distinct. Flavor profile consists mainly of toasted nuts over a trickle of brown sugar sweetness all created by German malts this is one nice beer, one of the better Oktoberfests I have tried so clean and crisp with body a rare combonation for most American O-fests. Smooth creamy mouthfeel what a nice sipper this is a great beer, courtesy of an authentic German style brewery medium body a few notches below robust. Drinkability is definitely where this beer holds supreme just an awesome beer perfect for the turn of the season it has my approval.

Dull orange straw color with a little haze hanging around, the head starts off big but then falls to a thin layer of lace. Both sweet and toasted grain in the nose, hint of spicy herbal hop in the aroma. Decent smoothness from a tightly bound crispness that has a refreshing quality to it. Medium body. Hint of cooked veggies (DMS) with a graininess from the start to finish. Grassy malt flavors point towards dry, hops are mild with a quick snap of bitterness and a spicy finish. Small fermentation twang in the middle. Finishes dry and grainy.
Not bad at all, comparable to the few good imported O-fest beers and certainly better than the new pale versions that have been coming over lately within the past several years. A good choice for a malty pick this fall.

12 oz bottle into a mug.
Pours a medium coppery orange with almost 2 fingers of of foamy brite-white head. Retains solidly with some decent looking lacing. The aroma is a pretty nice smelling mix of lightly toasted bready malts, spice, and floral hop character.
The taste is toasted bread and caramel sweetness with a tingle of Noble hops for balance. The mouthfeel is light-medium bodied with a clean & crisp feel and easy drinkibility.
All around solid Oktoberfest from Penn that stays true to style and drinks extremely well. I'd except nothing less from Penn. Prost!

Had a bottle of this at Market Cross Pub in Carlisle, PA. Served cool in a 1/2 pint.
A - An amber that brings to mind an autumn sunset w/ an eggshell shade of white for a head.
S - Light spice w/ a medium amount of pilsner malt scents w/ a lightly creamy malt odor and a gentle yeasty scent.
M - Rich w/ malt in the feel, yet medium bodied for an American version, this is very nice w/ smooth and subtle sweetness and plenty of carbonation w/ a slightly dry noble hop character and finish.
T - I enjoy the way the malt has a relaxed yet insouciant quality. It says a lot about the care taken lagering this seasonal. The hjops are there, but don't outshine the flavor of malts which can make the overall taste of the fest beer.
D - Very much what a marzen should be - smooth and malty with a pleasant malt flavor, this was very drinkable for me.

Pours a very light fizzy 1/4 finger head that disappears semi quickly over clear darker toasted malt nectar almost copper orange colored beer.
Nose is unique, toasted malts as usual, light lager aromas with hints of fruit and sweetness, reddish sweet malts with hint of caramel, but then it changes a bit with some light reddish fruit aromas, hint of oxidation and almost estery aroma.
Taste has sweet malts, toasty malts, sweet caramel malts and toasty caramel, a bit syrupy and almost maple syrup, a bit overly syrupy, not very clean or crisp, slight tingly as well not sure what from as the booze is low. And there are some esters in the background which should def not be there for this beer, this seems more like a Belgian dubbel than Marzen. Finishes still sweet but slightly drier, sticky, touch of bitterness and lingering syrups.
Mouth is med bodied, syrupy, decent carb.
Overall not impressed at all. They didn't really hit the style well and tried to go overboard on everything (except the hops which were pretty much completely absent). Too sweet, very sryupy and caramel, not clean or crisp, very little toasted malts, little lager flavors, and no straw, etc. This was a poor excuse for an Oktoberfest/Marzen IMO.

Pours orangish bronze with a white head that soon becomes a patch. Minimal amount of lacing sticks to the glass.
The smell is grainy - carmelish - malty - slightly grassy.
The taste is of rich, fresh, caramelish malt. Slightly nutty and bready. A spicy Hallertau hop bitterness balances out the sweetness of the malt to give it a refreshingly dry finish.
Medium to full bodied, it has a wonderfully smooth texture with just the right amount of malty sweetness lingering on the palate.
This is a wonderful, highly drinkable, interpretation of the style. This is what an O-fest is all about! A rich, carmelized malt-accented, Hallertau hopped (though hops play an appropriately supportive role), incredibly smooth, This is one that I would definately love to stock up on for the O-fest season!

Good starting head that settles to a thin layer of bubbles. Some ring lace. Darker gold color with a touch of haze.
Deep semi-sweet caramel smell. No notable hop nose.
Tastes like a cross between an Marzen and a heavily unmalted pilsner. Lightly sweet with an above-average body. Light on the carbonation.

Best by December of 2006...
Appears a copper toned amber with a fluffy, off-white head that slowly fades out. Scattered lacing is left behind.
Smell is malty with notes of caramel, toffee, candy, herbs, and fruits.
Taste is of the mentioned aromas with a sort of metallic, and bitter, herbal hoppiness that is found in the flavor. I can't say that I'm crazy about the latter statement but I'm on the fence with it and I keep drinking it so that tells me what I need to know.
Mouthfeel is crisp, sweet, mildly bitter, along with a mild acidic finish.
Overall, not too bad but not making me want to run out and buy any more cases.

On-tap at Ortino's Northside for $5 a pint. This beer is a fest beer, like Weihenstephaner's and the beers they actually pour at Oktoberfast. It appears a brilliant gold with a short white head. The beer really tastes a lot like a dry export lager. The aroma is fruity with a mild cherry note, but the flavor is centered around dried white bread with a little crust. Meh, this is not the best I've had, but still not bad.

A: The fest is an amber color with is more golden orange than red. There is a small ring of head that seems to retain nicely.
S: The beer has a malty biscuity flavor that borders on sweetness.
T: The beer has a very light, malty flavor. The malts are biscuity and concentrated to the point of sweetness. There are no hops, but the beer does not need them to shine.
M: The malts are pleasing and add a good amount of sweetness.
D: Very drinkable, a good oktoberfestbier.

A. Poured on tap into a pint glass. A decent white head forms but little to no lace. Copper body.
S. Malts and german hops. The malts are somewhat bready and bordering on sweet. The hops are herbal and earthy.
T. A wave of malts on the palate, more pronounced and smoother than the bottled version. The leafy herbal hops are very fresh tasting. Malt sweetness is balanced by the noble hop.
M. Smooth and fuller bodied than the bottled version.
D. At 5.6% this could be a staple session beer. Definately a much different animal on tap than in the bottle. I was able to drink more of this and enjoy it more. A win win situation.

"Obviously Jamal is the best player in this deal, and it's not easy giving up a young talent like that," Bulls general manager John Paxson said. "The way that we looked at it is there were certain things we needed to get. We had to get substantial financial (relief) and this gives us some flexibility."
The deal will save the Bulls about $18 million in cap space. The contracts of all of the New York players expire after this year, and Jerome Williams still has $25 million and four years left on his current deal.
"It ends up being one we all can live with," Paxson said. "We're just not in a position to give Jamal the type of deal he was looking for, and Isiah was really good at working to get the player he wanted."
Crawford led the Bulls with 17.3 points a game last year and is one of the league's top young guards. After averaging 11.2 points and almost four assists in his first four seasons in the NBA, the restricted free agent would have commanded a hefty, long-term contract. But the Bulls have made prep-to-pro big men Tyson Chandler and Eddy Curry the cornerstones of their rebuilding effort, and as restricted free agents next summer, they'll be eligible for their own big deals.
Enter the Knicks.
New York general manager Isiah Thomas has been interested in Crawford for months, saying he was at the top of the Knicks' wish list this summer.
"He reminds me of myself in the way he handles the basketball and his ability to create and score," Thomas said of Crawford, who will wear Thomas' old No. 11. "The ability to score and pass the ball are two things that he possesses. He's a tremendous talent and I'm honored that he would choose No. 11 to wear."
Crawford wore No. 1 with the Bulls, but Penny Hardaway already has that number.
Crawford also gives the Knicks insurance for Allan Houston, who missed much of last season and the playoffs with knee and leg injuries. The Knicks lost to the New Jersey Nets in the first round of the playoffs.
"Last year when Allan (Houston) went down, we were saying that if he was healthy we'd be able to go further," Thomas said. "Before we started this whole chase and pursued it, we talked about if Allan was healthy and we talked about his coming off the bench. He had no problem coming off the bench."
Thomas also was excited about Jerome Williams, whose tenacious defensive play has earned him the nickname "Junkyard Dog." He's averaged 6.8 rebounds and 6.9 points in his eight NBA seasons, and was acquired by the Bulls last year in the trade that sent Jalen Rose to Toronto.
"Jerome Williams is a rebounding machine," Thomas said. "We forget the most important parts of the game is rebounding and scoring."
While the Bulls helped themselves economically, they're left with a young team again. Curry and Chandler have played only three seasons, and Chandler missed much of last year with back problems. Kirk Hinrich had a strong rookie season, but he's one year removed from Kansas. Ben Gordon and Luol Deng were picked in this summer's draft.
Frank Williams, who led Illinois to back-to-back Big Ten titles in 2001 and 2002, will give the back court some experience. But he's played in just 77 games in two years with New York, averaging 3.2 points and two assists.
"It's difficult to win with a young basketball team," Paxson said. "The concern right now is we are a young back court. I keep telling everybody, we talk so much about Jamal, but our hopes hinge on Tyson Chandler's health and Eddy Curry's development."
That's where Mutombo could help. An eight-time All-Star and four-time defensive player of the year, Mutombo has averaged 12.2 points, 12.1 rebounds and 3.33 blocked shots in 13 years with New York, New Jersey, Philadelphia, Atlanta and Denver. He is fourth in NBA history with 2,996 blocks.
He played in 65 games with the Knicks last season, averaging 6.7 rebounds and 5.6 points.
"I just know Dikembe through other people. The one thing I know about him is he's a true professional," Paxson said. "He's been around league and seen a lot of things, and he has a great, positive attitude about this business. It's going to be a wonderful thing for our young guys to learn from him."
Nets give Jefferson handsome raise
After basically losing All-Star power forward Kenyon Martin in the free agency market, the New Jersey Nets made sure Olympian Richard Jefferson stayed in the fold.
The Nets and Jefferson agreed to a multiyear contact extension on Thursday that will pay him $78 million over the next six years.
"Richard's work ethic over the past three years has produced a significant development in his basketball performance," Nets president Rod Thorn said.
"The Nets management feels very strongly that Richard will continue this upward spiral and be a cornerstone of this franchise," Thorn said.
Jefferson would have become a restricted free agent after next season.
Tractor Traylor parks in Cleveland again
CLEVELAND — With a chance to play for coach Paul Silas again, Robert "Tractor" Traylor returned to the Cleveland Cavaliers on Thursday.
The massive forward, who previously played with the Cavaliers in 2000-01, will get the club's million dollar exception — a contract worth approximately $1.6 million. Although Traylor is more than doubling the $750,000 salary he got in New Orleans last season, the Cavaliers say money isn't all that lured him back.
The former first-round draft pick wanted to reunite with Silas, who coached him for two seasons with the Hornets.
"We think Robert can play a role in our front court," Cavaliers general manager Jim Paxson said. "He is a veteran and solid defender with five seasons of playoff experience whose physical presence will help us."
Traylor's agent, Andre Colona, didn't return a phone message.
The 6-foot-8, 284-pound Traylor will beef up the Cavaliers' front court, which lost its top rebounder this summer when power forward Carlos Boozer went to Utah, signing a six-year, $68 million deal with the Jazz.
To combat the loss of Boozer, the Cavaliers acquired forward Drew Gooden in a trade with Orlando. Gooden appears to be the favorite to be the club's starting power forward next season, but not if Traylor has anything to do with it.
Traylor is a solid inside defender, something the Cavaliers desperately needed last season.
For the Hornets last season, Traylor came off the bench and averaged 5.1 points and 3.7 rebounds in 71 games. During his previous stint with the Cavaliers, Traylor averaged 5.7 points and 4.3 rebounds in 70 games before Cleveland traded him after the 2001 season to Philadelphia.
Bucks import James
MILWAUKEE — The Milwaukee Bucks signed unrestricted free agent Mike James on Thursday to add some depth at the point guard position.
James will share duties with second-year player T.J. Ford, who is trying to make a comeback from spinal cord surgery.
The team did not disclose terms of the contract.
The 6-foot-2 James played 81 games with the Boston Celtics and the Detroit Pistons last season. He started in all 55 games he played with Boston. He left the Celtics in February as part of a three-team deal that sent him to Detroit.
He averaged 6.3 points and 3.7 assists in 26 regular-season games with the NBA champion Pistons, and then averaged 2.6 points in 22 playoff games.
Spurs bring Horry back
SAN ANTONIO — Spurs forward Robert Horry re-signed with the team Thursday.
The deal came a day after San Antonio signed power forwards Tony Massenburg and Sean Marks, who spent last season on the Spurs' injured list.
The 6-foot-10 Horry, who turns 34 this month, averaged 4.8 points and 3.4 rebounds in 81 games with San Antonio last season. He also played in all 10 of the Spurs' playoff games, averaging 6.1 points and 6.3 rebounds.
Last month, the team declined to exercise its $5 million option to keep Horry, making him an unrestricted free agent.
Horry, going into his 13th NBA season, picked up championship titles with the Houston Rockets in 1994 and 1995, then three more with the Los Angeles Lakers in 2000, 2001 and 2002.
The Spurs originally signed him to fill a need for clutch shooting after the Lakers opted to let him become a free agent. In his career, Horry has averaged 7.7 points, 5.2 rebounds and 2.4 assists in 856 games.
