Thanks for visiting my blog! Please contact me if you're thinking about purchasing a Mercedes-Benz in the
Atlanta area.
The 2014 Mercedes-Benz CLA45 AMG has officially been released for sale! They should begin shipping from the ports and arriving at dealerships this week! My silver one is still available! Who's ready?
The 2014 Mercedes-Benz CLA45 AMG is scheduled for release later this month and it is already winning awards! It was a close race, but Motor Authority has named the CLA45 AMG the Best Performance/Luxury Car to Buy for 2014!
"But most of all, the CLA45 is the kind of car that commutes in comfort, but never fails to inspire a face-splitting grin. It is, quite possibly, the best all-around, attainable, everyday enthusiast car we've driven."
I have one on the way…
Our first 2014 Mercedes-Benz S550s have arrived! I took a bunch of pictures because these are ordered vehicles and will not be on display. We do have our Iridium Silver S550 demo vehicle if you still need to take a look and test drive!
The Nut Brown/Black Nappa Leather is new for this year. It is always hard to describe a color but it is not red, not orange, not dark. I'm going to go with milk chocolate as my descriptor.
The leather dashboard looks great in this car. I think I would go with the Daylight White ambient lighting scheme.
Look at that attention to detail! The steering wheel has Nut Brown contrast stitching!
This is the Silk Beige Nappa Leather interior. Very elegant!
This CLA250 came in the same shipment…I know it isn't an S-Class but it is still an eye catcher!
Yesterday was my Mercedes-Benz training on the 2014 CLA-Class and the 2014 S550. We've had these vehicles at the dealership for a few weeks now and it was great to get some hands on experience with the experts.
Our CLA250 test drive vehicles were equipped with the Drive Kit Plus for iPhones. We were able to use Siri, check in via Facebook, and turn on the internet radio. Our instructor could also use the Family Driver Monitoring from mbrace to make sure we stayed on track!
This is best picture I could get of Northern Lights Violet on a CLA250 that was displayed inside. It is a really pretty, deep eggplant color with a LOT of sparkle. They said it was even prettier in the sunshine and looked black at night.
This is the 10th gernation of S-Class in the United States and it was clear from the training that it is the most advanced vehicle we have ever offered! We spent an hour on the outside, and hour on the inside, watched videos by the designer and still barely covered the basics!
We also had a little fun watching DVDs and enjoying the unbelieveable Burmester sound system! It absolutely fills the car with rich, full sound. It's hard to image the upgraded system!
Thanks Mercedes-Benz! It was a great day and I look forward to sharing this information with both my new CLA owners and my returning S-Class owners soon!
Here it is! The Very Special Edition 1 CLA250! This one is sold but there is another one on the way!
2014 CLA250 Edition 1
This is great way to get loaded CLA with a little something extra!
Do you see that?! We suddenly have a bunch of 2014 CLA250′s available for sale! Four in a row and one around the corner. From left to right that is Universe Blue, Night Black, Mountain Grey and Night Black again.
On the left – Stock #30348:
On the right – Stock #30347
On the left – Stock #30342
On the right – Stock #30338
Stock #30339
This may be your only opportunity to see so many CLAs in one place for a while. Our first shipment is gone and based on the amount of test drives we've been going on this week these 5 won't last long! Call me!
It's here! We sent our personal transporter to the port this morning to pick up our first 2014 Mercedes-Benz CLA250! He then rushed it back to the dealership so we can have it ready to test drive tomorrow!
We just had a few minutes to check it out before it went into service for an inspection and detail. I am already impressed with the build quality and overall appearance. It looks very expensive!
Call me to set up an appointment for a test drive! I imagine I'll spend all day tomorrow doing laps in this car!
The 2014 C-Class sedans have been released for sale as of August 20, 2013. The vehicles that are waiting at the port should be shipping to the dealerships soon!
The 2014 CLA-Class and 2014 S-Class are currently scheduled to be released on September 20th 2013! That is just one month away!
Pricing for the 2014 Mercedes-Benz models is out…for everything except the S-Class. Here you go!
"Through careful and near-obsessive engineering, the team at AMG has produced a turbocharged engine that delivers 177.5 hp per liter and develops full torque from 2250 to 5000 rpm. In practical terms, not only can it deliver a mountain of torque on demand, it can deliver the exact level of torque the driver requires."
"On the road, the CLA45 feels small and agile — not exactly what we've come to expect from Mercedes. While it certainly feels every bit the level of quality we expect of anything with the three-pointed star, it is immediately obvious this car uses a cab-forward, transverse-engine layout. The driving position is near ideal, and the seats and steering wheel are a DTM fan's dream. Rear headroom is compromised by the sloping roof, but on the upside, the trunk has plenty of space. Road noise is minimal and engine noise is fantastic."
"The CLA45 may not seem like an ideal track-day weapon, but it was one of the most enjoyable cars I've had on the track in a long time. On the road, the mixture of luxury and performance make it a world-class sport sedan."

A member of the U.S. military has been charged with trying to go through a security checkpoint with explosives at an airport in Texas Saturday morning.
According to the Associated Press, 30-year-old Trey Scott Atwater was arrested at Midland International Airport for placing explosives in a military-grade wrapping. He was latter charged at Midland County jail and will remain in custody until his arraignment on Tuesday.
An FBI spokesperson said that Atwater was with his family visiting relatives and was scheduled to return to his base in North Carolina. It was unknown how many explosives were in Atwater's bag or if he was in uniform during the arrest.

Our Newsmaker for 2012 is the heartbreaker of the year; not a person but rather a story, a saga — of a smart, vivacious young woman who summoned a courage most of us will never know. It's also a story about the cops and prosecutors who helped turn what could have been a years-long, excruciatingly emotional and legal ordeal into something that, while it will never be palatable or cross justice's threshold, is thankfully behind us. And this is the story of a community that found its glue in the worst of horrors, and of the stubborn hope and faith that thrived in the shadow of a grim reality: beautiful young women go missing, but they rarely come home alive.
Mickey Shunick was gone before most of us knew she was missing, buried in a shallow grave on the Cajun prairie by a psychopath whose name hardly deserves mention, a psychopath who spun a fabric of lies that would ultimately enwrap and entrap him; who was bruised, cut and bloodied by a "victim" he didn't bargain for — injuries that, perhaps more than anything, exposed the horrific monster whose mother named Brandon Scott Lavergne when he entered this world to wreck it.
We know the story by heart: the ill-fated bicycle ride across town in the early-morning hours of Saturday, May 19. The missing person report later that day, the day her little brother graduates from high school. It is two days before her 22nd birthday, and for weeks the media identifies her as 22-year-old Mickey Shunick, clinging with the community to that stubborn hope that she is alive, that she had a birthday. Somewhere. Somehow. A community rallies, plastering Lafayette with flyers, organizing concerts, manning a command center. The press conferences. The grainy surveillance footage. The national media. The rumors. The arrest. The confession. The perp walk. The plea deal. Angola. Life.
But the Mickey Shunick story isn't about her disappearance or her death. It's about the light that illuminated a community, brought strangers together and made us appreciate life's ephemeral gifts.
A bicycle, painted white, sits atop a pole near the spot where Mickey was abducted, the spot where evil punctured a membrane and, briefly, let darkness pour in. It's an appropriate memorial — pure and bright like the life that inspired it. And as we pass beyond the margins of grief and outrage, we pull our children a little closer, hug them a little longer, love them a little deeper.
That's what our 2012 Newsmaker of the Year gave us. That's Mickey Shunick.
AUG 29 Everyone who cares about Louisiana should take time to peruse this story about coastal loss from Bob Marshall of The Lens. It's not enough to call it a story; it's an interactive experience packed with data and amazing graphics, timelines, history, photos and excellent writing. Set aside some time, because you can't go through this one in a few minutes.
JUN 29 This bizarre story from the Advocate on the shooting of a Baton Rouge television personality reads like the script of a soap opera - but not a good one. The allegations against him include sexual abuse of children, including the alleged shooter, and a sham immigration marriage involving his own daughter. The other side? He was a chaplin for the Sheriff's Office in Baton Rouge and preached in a local church.
AUG 29 Here's a story from CBS News about a killer amoeba found in the water system of St. John the Baptist Parish. The story made all three networks (CBS, ABC, NBC) as well as Fox "News," although they have not yet found out how it is Obama's fault. Seriously, the good news is that so far officials know of no one sickened by the water.
AUG 29 Huffington Post has a blog called Love Letters, which is grandly described as "an anthology of reflections on places the world over." This entry is from LSU Football Coach Les Miles, who, it appears, loves Baton Rouge. (Of course he does; he's a rich straight white man.) And certainly Baton Rouge loves him - unless he loses (ask Curley "Golden Flake" Hallman about that) or leaves (ask Nick Saban).
AUG 29 Blogger Bob Mann comments here upon Governor Bobby Jindal's federal lawsuit about Common Core. Mann calls it a "thinly veiled campaign document" and that might be the nicest thing he says in this post. Most troubling for Jindal and his aspirations, Mann has unearthed what Bobby said just a few years ago when he first decided to shove Common Core down our throats.
AUG 29 Blogger Tom Aswell has several developments here related to the so-called Edmonson amendment. The most entertaining one is possibly Tom's acknowledgement that a State Police official is (allegedly) calling the bloggers covering the story some colorful names. Listen up, cowboy: You really think two veterans like Tom Aswell and CB Forgotston care if you call them idiots?
AUG 29 Gotta love those journalists who write something with the enthusiasm that implies they're the first one to figure something out. Mostly, they're not. This is one of those times; the post on Slate Magazine says that Bobby Jindal's Common Core lawsuit is a political stunt. Well - Duh.
AUG 29 This story by WVLA tells us about a guy who got busted for speeding in Baton Rouge. Who cares? This guy took that infraction to new heights by going 129 miles per hour on Nicholson Drive. Poor fella - he probably has spent so much time sitting in Baton Rouge traffic he just had to cut lose.
AUG 28 As the controversy surrounding the Office of Group Benefits intensifies, blogger Tom Aswell gives us some background on the current problems. The OGB, which handles health insurance for current and retired state employees, is deep in the red since it was privatized by Jindal, and Aswell gives us the skinny: this great plan was designed by ALEC. The company handling it? Blue Cross Blue Shield of Louisiana - a longtime member of ALEC.
AUG 28 Blogger CB Forgotston has a concept for a new reality show: the wives of the "Dork Dynasty." That's the name that some troopers have given to State Police Commander Mike Edmonson and his inner circle. The ladies CB has picked for his cast are not just housewives, however, and the connections here are pretty interesting.
AUG 28 Blogger Ian McGibboney is writing about the strife in Ferguson in this post, and articulating what many people down south are saying. There's a fairy tale about how there's tons of racism in the South, but it's all hunky dory up North. (Really? Look again.)

I was so looking forward to trying this new variety that was said to be more resistant to bugs. Instead, I planted 3 times and each time, the squash bugs attacked them voraciously. The only good thing I can say is that they made a good trash crop for the squash bugs so that my other squash were prolific!

Book Description:Timeless Interiors is about capturing the romance of the past without throwing away your washing machine and living in an old fashioned way. Primarily an inspirational source book, it shows how to recreate the tricks designers use: she shows why a room looks romantic and how to get that effect through colors, paint, wallpaper, flower arrangements or still-lives on a shelf. The opening chapter of the book is a detailed story of the featured houses. The following sections are divided room by room: halls, sitting rooms, studies, bathrooms, bedrooms, kitchens and dining rooms. The creators of these interiors are not all designers by trade, but with imagination they have created an individual and romantic style of their own.

The fast pace of the internship dictates that the successful intern is one who communicates clearly, is self-directed, and is somewhat independent. COMPONENTS OF SATISFACTORY PERFORMANCE The American Dietetic Association ("ADA") core competencies specify what every dietitian should be able to do at the beginning of his or her practice career. The core competency statements build on appropriate knowledge and skills necessary for the entry-level practitioner to perform reliably. See the ISU Dietetic Internship Handbook for a listing of the competencies. The intern must also complete his or her internship in accordance with the Dietetic Intern Position Description. In order to receive the verification statement from Iowa State University that establishes eligibility to take the national registration exam, the Department of Food Science and Human Nutrition requires that the dietetics interns successfully meet all ADA core competencies prior to completion of the dietetics internship as well as demonstrate satisfactory performance in the following: Effective Communication (oral and written, individual and team, formal and informal) as evidenced by: • Participate in all required communication with ISU faculty, assigned mentor and preceptors. • Weekly written journal due to assigned instructor by 5 pm on Tuesday of each week of the internship. Active participation in individual and group discussions either in person or via website to demonstrate knowledge and understanding of topic. Other communication both oral and written as assigned. Successful completion of oral and written reports as assigned. Completion of rubrics for self-assessment of professional progress. Email is considered an official means of communicating with interns. Effective Time Management as evidenced by: • Attendance at all professional meetings and requirements. Any absences must be reported to preceptor and instructor. • Attendance at conferences and appointments at scheduled times. If unable to keep an appointment, it must be cancelled appropriately and re-scheduled. • Assignments, projects, and other internship requirements are completed within the assigned time frame. If additional work on the assignment or requirement is necessary to achieve mastery or entry- level competence, this work is completed within the agreed upon time frame. • Respectful of other people's time: preceptors, instructors, and other interns. Schedules appointments, prepares questions and concerns in advance, is prepared for all meetings. Problem solving and Critical thinking evidenced by: Critical within this area are the requirements for the interns to develop flexibility, initiative and an ability to work with others when engaged in problem solving. In addition, the intern: • Demonstrates knowledge and skills appropriate for entry-level dietitian as defined in the ADA competency list. All assignments are reviewed by the instructor. The instructor may require that the intern revise assignments to meet a level of mastery and competence. Revisions must be completed within the agreed upon time frame. o Level of mastery/competence is measured according to a 3 point scale using Novice, Beginner, and Competent as endpoints. o Intern is encouraged/allowed to complete additional work and review as necessary to achieve the expected level of mastery and competence. o Interns must complete the assigned learning activities as required. o Learning activities are outlined for each rotation. Some additional assignments may be added at the discretion of the site preceptor or instructor. o Interns complete Comprehensive Nutrition Care Process Worksheets throughout the internship. This measures the intern's ability to assess appropriate data, identify the primary nutritional diagnoses, write a PES statement, and delineate a nutrition care plan. o This also serves as a window to the interns' ability to manage time, communicate effectively, and validate the preceptor evaluations of the intern. o Interns are expected to complete these responsibilities with or without accommodation. Please contact the Program Director if you require assistance in performing these responsibilities. COMPONENTS OF EVALUATION Evaluation is an important component of the internship and continues throughout the professional career. Interns will have the opportunity to develop skills in self-evaluation during the internship course work and planned experiences. Interns, ISU faculty and preceptors in the facilities participate in the performance evaluation conferences scheduled in the various practice sites. The conferences identify areas of strength and areas lacking preparation and experience. All conferences should be viewed as positive opportunities for feedback to encourage continued growth and performance of dietetic practitioner skills. Interns can expect to receive oral feedback from preceptors throughout the internship. Internship faculty are available for onsite evaluation for all interns as required, irrespective of the location of the facility. Any additional travel expense incurred as the result of the need for trips to personally consult with the intern or facility will be the responsibility of the intern. University policy dictates that the instructor shall inform the students/interns at the beginning of each course of the evaluation procedures planned for use in the course. Additional university policy information related to grading, evaluation and record keeping is found at this website: http://www.iastate.edu/~catalog/2003-05/geninfo/grades.htm Formal Evaluation This occurs at pre-determined times throughout the internship using specifically prepared ISU DI forms. Evaluations include both assessments of the intern's progress as well as assessments of the intern's knowledge and performance in rotations. Preceptors/instructors completing the evaluation use the provided form and review with the intern prior to signatures. It is the intern's responsibility to be familiar with the various evaluation forms so that he/she is aware of the criteria and timing for each evaluation. The form is returned to the instructor. Interns can expect to receive formal evaluations in the following formats: • written evaluations from preceptors, • rubrics for oral presentations, • exams in the form of comprehensive care reviews, • scored assignments. Informal Evaluation Many opportunities exist for informal information about performance. These should be viewed as positive opportunities to gain insight and adjust performance. Examples of informal evaluation include, but are not limited to, daily feedback/discussions with preceptors on skill development, clinical documentation, presentations, and projects. Intern Evaluation of Rotation Forms are provided for the intern to evaluate his/her experience in the rotation. These forms are used to evaluate future improvements in the program as well as provide feedback to preceptors. Unsatisfactory performance The intern is graded on a "satisfactory-fail" basis. The first time an intern's academic work and/or performance is evaluated as unsatisfactory, the intern will be provided with an opportunity to improve to a satisfactory level. Upon notice that the intern has received an unsatisfactory evaluation, the department shall provide for the following: • Increased faculty visits and/or contacts as dictated by the situation. • A verbal warning to the intern that evaluations of written assignments and/or performance are not within the satisfactory range. • Documentation of the verbal warning placed in the intern's permanent file. • A meeting with the intern to discuss and develop terms and conditions for improvement with a time- line for review. • A letter written to the intern, with copies to the preceptor and intern's permanent file, which includes the specific terms and conditions agreed upon that the intern must fulfill in order to improve to a satisfactory level. If the intern receives a second written warning or fails to meet the agreed upon terms and conditions for improvement within the specified time-line, the intern shall be dismissed from the program. Throughout this process, the intern, ISU faculty member and preceptors are involved in the evaluation, discipline, and termination of the intern. Note also that interns can receive "unsatisfactory performance" in relationship to inappropriate behavior and perceived attitudes. This includes, but is not limited to, chronic tardiness and/or missed work, and insubordination to faculty, preceptors, or facility staff. Interns will be immediately dismissed from the internship for the following: theft, bringing weapons of any sort to the facility or campus, verbally or physically threatening or harassing patients/clients, faculty, preceptors, facility staff or fellow-interns. Interns have the right to appeal a dismissal for these reasons under the Iowa State University Academic Grievance procedures (located at the ISU Dean of Students website: http://www.dso.iastate.edu/ ). NOTE: In order to receive the verification statement, necessary for eligibility to write the examination for Registered Dietitian credential, the intern must complete all assignments and rotations at the satisfactory level with demonstration of competence. Merely completing the six-month internship program does not guarantee receipt of the verification statement.

Investing in Indonesia's education : allocation, equity, and efficiency of public expenditures
AbstractWhat are the current trends and main characteristics of public education spending in Indonesia? Is education spending insufficient? Are expenditures in education efficient and equitable? This study reports the first account of Indonesia's aggregated (national and sub-national) spending on education, as well as the economic composition of education spending and its breakdown by programs. It presents estimations of the expected (average) level of education spending for a country with its economic and social characteristics. This analysis sheds light on the efficiency and equity of education spending by presenting social rates of return by level of education, by assessing the adequacy of current teacher earnings relative to other paid workers and the distribution of teachers across urban, rural, and remote regions, and by identifying the main determinants of education enrollment. It concludes that the current challenges in Indonesia are no longer defined by the need of additional spending, but rather the need to improve the quality of education services, and to improve the efficiency of education expenditures by re-allocating teachers to undersupplied regions and re-adjusting the spending mix within and between education programs for future additional spending in the sector. The study finds that poverty and student-aged labor are also significant constraints to education enrollment, stressing the importance of policies aimed at addressing demand-side factors.

The beta test for Bungie's upcoming first-person shooter, Destiny, will commence in late July for both of Microsoft's home consoles. If you have the game pre-ordered, you'll be able to partake in the semi-closed beta on the Xbox 360 or the Xbox One.
Bungie noticed that one of Peter Dinklage's lines from the Destiny alpha test has become an in-joke among many players. They've decided to celebrate the awful quote by creating a limited-edition t-shirt.
GamingBolt spotted a comment from Bungie's senior environment artist, Jason Sussman, who explained why the game was not 1080p and 60fps on the eighth-gen console.
Destiny's PS4 and PS3 versions will come with several pieces of exclusive content. Today, Bungie revealed exactly what PlayStation gamers will be getting when the game launches in September.
Destiny's PS4 alpha test was supposed to conclude on Sunday night. However, Bungie's decided to keep the servers running for a bit longer.
Bungie held a PS4-exclusive Destiny alpha test this weekend. This vertical slice of the game gave us a glimpse at the competitive and cooperative sides of the shared-world shooter. It left me some with big questions, though.
Destiny's alpha test is launching this afternoon on the PS4. Bungie confirmed today that the test will be larger than expected.
Another game will manage to hit 1080p on both the Xbox One and the PlayStation 4, this time it's Bungie's Destiny... well, according to GTTV's Geoff Keighley.
Sony opened up their E3 2014 press conference with a look at Bungie's "shared-world" shooter Destiny. Sony is partnering with Bungie to bring PS4 gamers an exclusive first look at the game as well as a special hardware bundle.
Gamers have taken any and every turn possible to share their privileged gaming experiences with the world, and Destiny's closed alpha is no exception to the rule.
Some of these information leeches have found out that there is an alpha test going on for the alpha build of Destiny. Bungie decided to come clean about what that means for everybody else.
Bungie released a new trailer for Destiny, their upcoming first-person shooter. Interestingly enough the trailer is only for the PS4, showing a clear sign of preference for a company that used to be loyal to the green brand.
Bungie has released images and details on the Shrike, one of the drivable vehicles in Destiny. The Shrike is a one-man vehicle that players can use to quickly reach their next mission.
Four of the biggest games due out in 2014 are actually games you could consider to be always-on titles. They are heavily focused on multiplayer, and even their single-player offerings are still tied to online gameplay. Do you know which games I'm talking about? Well if you do, you have to ask yourself whether or not you're okay with the direction the industry is heading in.
Bungie will be holding a closed beta for upcoming multiplayer shooter Destiny. The beta will be held in early 2014 on PS4, Xbox One, PS3 and Xbox 360.

FLAGSTAFF- A uranium mining company that has hundreds of claims staked around the Grand Canyon says it's losing out on up to $123 million in profits.
VANE Minerals LLC., blames the U.S. Department of the Interior and its 20-year ban on new mining claims on more than 1 million acres.
The department instituted the ban last year, requiring that anyone with existing claims prove sufficient quantity and quality of uranium ore before any mining could occur.
VANE Minerals argues in a filing with the U.S. Court of Federal Claims that the ban is an unconstitutional taking of property rights and should be reversed. If declared valid, the company says it's entitled to compensation between $68 million and $123 million for expected profit loss.
The Interior Department declined to comment Thursday.

The governor has recently signed legislation that makes leaving your animal in a motor vehicle which places the animal in extreme health threatening a misdemeanor.
Lindsay Pollard of PETA Foundation stated "leaving a dog or any living being in a parked car on a warm day isn't much different from putting him or her in a hot oven." Under this new legislation, any animal control officer, law enforcement officer or firefighter who believes this law is being violated can take action and enter the vehicle by any means necessary.The owner will then have to pay all charges that have been accrued for the maintenance and impoundment of the animal, before allowing its return.
The punishment of violating this law can be imprisonment for up to one year, a fine of up to $1000 or both.
"Trapped in a steaming car with only hot air to breathe," wrote Pollard-Post of PETA, "dogs can suffer heatstroke in just 15 minutes, resulting in brain damage or death. … When temperatures warm up, no amount of time in a parked car is safe for dogs."

How to recieve downvotes:
Go in a thread that calls out Morello about champion X's buffs/nerfs and say that you think the current state of the champion is fine
Example: Mordekaiser is fine, he was great before and the buffs just made him stronger. Just build him a bit tanky and with AP that he scales great
I played as morde in one game last night, and he actually seemed to be pretty decent again. not as good as he was before, but definitely strong again.
Fox P McCloud
He's fine if you build him only one way, tanky with lots of health....But Riot already stated that he's not a tank. I find the numbers on him right now push you away from trying different builds. I used to enjoy steam rolling with him as ap, but that's completely impossible now unless you get super fed early game. Also i read that early game spellvamp is negligible to the health taken out by his skills. So theirs another build direction that only works if your fed early game. I think there's a lot of work that can still be done with him, mostly with his shield generation and his health consumption.
Played him last night still to easy to zone him out of lane, and thus the game. Imo. I'm still relatively new so I defer to more wiser men them I in this debate, but is good to know he is still on the radar. Not just a ' well fixed (rubs hands) what's next?' Kind of thing.
Geez guys forget olde Morde for once and try embracing the new one! He got from "clearly OP" to "sleeper OP" just give him time and play smarter that you will see the effects of the new buffs
Also stop going for the tankyest member of the team, go for the carries! ALWAYS focus the enemy carry, grab his ghost and throw all his AD and DPS against the other team... and while at it, don't chase SInged.

A- Pours a light straw color that was very clear with a pronounced bubbly appearance. I was quite surprised with the thick foamy head after the hard pour...it actually lasted about 3 minutes before all but completely disappearing. Not a very impressionable beer based on looks.
S- Grainy and not much else. Even the potency of the aroma is lackluster. Not a very impressive smell.
T- Again, this tastes almost like it smells, only slightly better. Not much of an IPA, very little hop presence...and actually kinda sweet considering. The flavor is weak...reminds me of an American light beer like Coors, only with a bit more flavor
M- Quite watery with lots of carbonation. I let this one sit for a bit and it smooths out decently, but other than it doesn't have much complexity in this department.
D- If you want something on a hot summer day, this will quench your thirst, only if ice cold. Other than this offering, even though I'd drink this again if it was the only choice, I don't think I'd be recommending this one to anybody.

Bottle: Poured a blonde color ale with very small head and no carbonation. Carbonation is quite weak and body is very thin. Aroma is also quite weak with a bit of floral malt and not much else. Taste is watery with subtle floral malt and very little else is going on here. Not as bad as totally lacking character.

On tap @ the ACC.
A - Poured light to medium yellow with a small amount of white head.
S - Some bready malts and no discernible hop profile at all. My skepticism seems to be coming true.
T - Slightly sweet bready malts and the faintest touch of floral flavours are present. There is no bitterness whosoever and if I wasn't looking for some resemblance of hops, I probably wouldn't have spotted the light floral flavour. Very disappointing.
M - Light body, moderate carbonation. No hop oils. A good mouth feel for an adjunct lager.
O - Very disappointing. This seems to be a knock off of Alexander Keith's IPA, not brewed to the style but brewed to try to capture some of the market that Keith's has created in Canada with the "IPA" style. At least Rickard's version of an "IPA" has some flavour to it, but there doesn't even remotely resemble an IPA and is being graded accordingly.

So it's come to this. The final entry from the Rickard's Taster 12-pack - Rickard's India Pale Ale, advertised as "refereshingly distinctive..." with "a lively character and a crisp, clean finish." My last experience with Rickard's IPA was, as I recall, a largely neutral one, but let's examine more closely.
Pours into my pint glass a very translucent straw yellow, with an initial 1/4 inch of head that dies to little more than a weak lacing within ten to twelve seconds; it does not look particularly appealing at all - at least the Red and Honey Brown were pleasant to look at.
The aroma is slightly sweet, with only hops on the nose. Virtually nothing else is distinguishable here (and even the hops seem a little on the weak side for an India Pale Ale). Largely neutral and unimpressive.
Taste is nice, but reflects little in the way of complexity or even a representativeness of the IPA style. The hops are certainly more dominant here than malts, but not by nearly enough to reflect a true example of the style. Taste is initially slightly malty, with the hops becoming detectable at about the midway point. It's only slightly bitter, and leaves an ever so slightly adjunct-y aftertaste that damanges what would otherwise be a good tasting (albeit it unrepresentative of its style) beer.
Mouthfell is weak. Body is too thin and this is the most overcarbonated of the Rickard's bunch. I will admit, however, that this stuff, like the bottle boasts, is actually rather crisp and refreshing; and for that it scores high on drinkability. The only problem is, there are dozens of cheaper brews out there that are just as crisp and refreshing.
It's obvious that Rickard's IPA is an attempt to steal some business from Alexander Keith's IPA - a brew that is similarly unrepresentative of the IPA style, but still wildly popular. I can't imagine them succeeding (I'd rather drink Keith's than this, I'll begrudgingly admit; plus the new Sleeman India Pale Ale actually has some marginal reason for which to actually call itself an IPA).
Rickard's India Pale Ale is not an IPA. I can't see this brew as anything other than a lager, and for that, it loses many points.
That said, tastewise, at least, Rickard's IPA isn't bad. Drop the pretense of being a beer style it's not and drop the price a couple bucks and you'd have a solid - if unspectacular - entry in the lager category.

This is absolutely the worst IPA I have ever drank. If you are reading this prior to having one yourself, please pour it over your plants and thank me. I purchased the bottle yesterday while trapped in the international gate at Toronto airport thinking that it was a local microbrew surviving in the field of Molson. They slapped a fancy label on a bad lager. Fizzy yellow, no hops to speak of, over carbonated swill. It was a labor to finish one. It took so long to order from the clueless folks behind the counter that I kept it anyway. Buyer beware, this is not an IPA and not worth your time. Especially at $6.50 CAN at the airport.

HAHAHAHAHA. Seriously. That's how you'll feel too. Pours a straw, macro-lager color. Looks like crap. No real head or lacing. Smell is all grain and malt, but very mild, to the point of being non-existent. Very cool, clean flavor. Like the smell, very mild. Absolutely no hop flavor, at all. This is NOT and IPA, and anyone pretending it is deluding them self. Body is thin, and carbonation is too high. I got this in a tastyer - I always thougth Rickards Red was a solid lager, but they've overstepped themselves here. Just bad, overall. Hilariously enough, the bottle claims "Authentic Pub Quality." Bull.

One of three selections in the Rickard's tasters pack. Label says its an India Pale Ale. Clear blonde color, little foam that disappeared to nothing. Light tasting, low bitterness or hop, really nothing that makes it distinguishable. I had to check the label again and yes it is supposed to be an IPA. OK as a macro-type ale, but not as an IPA.

--Regular brown 341 ml bottle, no freshness date found
--poured a light, golden straw like in color
--nice head that lasted a few seconds, very minor lacing
This was a hard beer to judge as it really did not taste like an IPA. If I didn't look at the label it was a not bad, slightly better than average beer. But as an IPA it fails miserably.

3.15/5 rDev +35.2%
Appearance: It is a dark golden ("morning piss") yellow ale with lots of white foam.
Smell: Hops is what you smell first of all. After that smell, you discover some others aromas, but they're too weak to recognize them for sure.
Taste: Lots of sweetness and malt bitterness. Very clean flavour and aftertaste.
Mouthfeel: It is not too thin, but not much else to say about it.
Drinkability: It is not as bad as others reviewers wrote. I agree is not the best beer brewed under Rickard's name, but it is still ok. Ok, that's too sweet, but there's so many worst beers on the market.
P.S. I also searched for born on / expiration date / code and I found out nothing on the bottle or its label.

Poured a pale gold...not a bad head and lacing....medium carbonation....not the nose one would expect from an IPA...it lacks any substantial floral bouquet...all we have here is near cloying sweetness and some DMS...weak mouthfeel...unbalanced...lacks the hopping...overly sweet with a sweet finish...horrible. Leave it on the shelf

Looks pretty good. Very clear golden yellow colour topped by a dense white head with decent retention and lacing. The aroma is just basic sweetness with faint earthy hop notes. Grainy sweetness dominates the flavour with a mild bitterness hiding underneath. Finishes sweet with some dryness on the palate. Overall the flavour is on the weak side. Very light body, definitely on the thin side, with a slightly slick mouthfeel. If you're looking for a good example of an IPA, this isn't it. I suppose it might be okay on a hot summer day, but I'd opt for a glass of water.

On-tap at Real Sports Bar and Grill, in Toronto.
I have my doubts that Rickard's India Pale Ale will be much of an IPA at all, but the appearance doesn't really weigh in one way or another. It is a clear, slightly tarnished golden beer that, while a little light for the style, is at least relatively deeper than a typical Molson offering. Furthermore, its head is thick, resilient and, above all, very messy.
The aroma is predictably displeasing, not only because it lacks the hop character it should have but also because it simply smells, well, somewhat off-putting. I note cardboard-y malts, cereal grist and a faint floral quality that seems to be barricaded behind a strong metallic tinge. It's odd enough that, out of curiosity, I kept dipping my nose back in.
This is not a bad tasting beer, per se, but it's definitely not up to par for the style. (Nor is it really even on style! I'm unconvinced this isn't Rickard's Pale under a different name.) The flavour of cereal grist is fortunately void of chemical or much corn taste, and is even accompanied by a pleasant and soft floral hoppiness. Still, it's bland and emasculated; because I can actually finish the pint I can't flunk it too bad, although I'd definitely like to.
That scarcely perceptible hoppiness turns to dust the very moment the sip concludes; Molson obviously didn't want any bitterness lingering (in an IPA? God forbid!). While that makes the whole thing pretty fruitless for someone like me, it maintains the beer's intended mainstream appeal. If you're not part of that demographic, you'll find it a fruitless beer too.
There is a trace of character that might distinguish this as a (poorly done) IPA in the modern English fashion, but otherwise this is surely one of the most unrewarding, substandard IPAs on the market, despite that it is, in other terms, a fairly satisfactory, average offering considering the brewery producing it (which isn't saying much, mind you).

Hmmm...this is an IPA?
I don't think so. Pour yourself a Molson Canadian and imagine it being a bit darker, a bit hoppier and there you have it!
Lager-like colour and skunky scent. Watery, lager-like taste with a bit of a hop character enough to make a pathetic attempt at being an IPA.
Oh yeah, one last thing...the ABV on my bottle is only 4.8%.
Thanks, but no thanks.

I thought it was a pale ale, til I noticed the word "India" to the left. If it wasn't for that, I wouldn't have noticed a difference. This IPA poured a a light, autumn leaf colour. Kinda pleasant. But no head whatsoever. A bit of foam rised up, then left like a rat in a snake cavern. Lacing is nonexistent, as their is nothing to get lace from. Smelled alright. Hops are dominant, which doesn't say much. It's a weak smelling beer. I can barely detect malt. Then again, I barely detected the hops. Taste is pathetic. Definitely not an IPA. Where is the bitterness, the bite, the sensation your mouth just got a surprise attack from some hoppy battalion? Instead, I get this dull hop presence. It's like the hops are hiding in the corner, waving at passerby's but not showing any effort. Their is a bit of a cloying sweetness. Is it an adjunct? Might be, though I'm unsure. Mouthfeel was a little crisp, given the pathetic strength of this IPA. After having the honeybrown from Rickard's, this was a disappointment.

This is an IPA? Call it something else and I'd review it higher. Poured a copper tan with a beige head.
Aroma was very weak and I could only faintly detect some hops in there. The first thing I noticed in the taste was a sweet caramel malt. There is definately some hop bitterness but not enough for this style. Not much of an aftertaste and overcabonated like many Rickard's beers are if you ask me.
Looks like Rickard's is trying to do what Alexander Keith's is doing and sell some very unimpressive IPA that are really nothing of the sort. Too bad

Another dud bearing the Rickards name. I almost feel like I'm being cornered into copying and pasting my earlier reviews of this product line. Same bland stuff, just a different label.
Pale yellow under a very short head. None of the hoppiness or grain that you might expect from a proper IPA, so this really just boils stealing the name of the style (again).
Thin, uninspired, dull. Not an IPA. Inoffensive enough to serve to any one, but not a real beer experience.

A - Pale. A shade darker than what I'd call straw. Minimal brittle head after a hard pour.
S - Big macro aroma. Faint apple and sweetness.
T - Grainy. Minimal bitterness. Macro flavour(lessness).
M - Stinging carbonation w/ light body.
D - Maybe in the macro category, it would rate quite well, but doesn't hold a candle to a decent IPA.

The Island of Gozo region
Gozo measures only 9 miles by 5 miles. It is located a 20 minute ferry ride away from Malta. The ferry runs every 45 minutes in summer and at a slightly reduced schedule throughout the night. Sunny, calm, laid-back and relaxing are some of the many adjectives used to describe Gozo. This is not a destination for the masses, even at the height of summer when Gozo is at its busiest you will not feel restricted. Enjoy some excellent wine in one of the many squares and watch the world go by or visit any of the seaside areas where you can find some of the best restaurants in Gozo. For those who do not want to just sit around and lap the sun, you can visit may of the historical sites around the island. The 5000 year old Ggantija Temples, the Gozo Citadel are among the most popular.
San Lawrenz
A couple of minutes drive away from the penthouse you will find Dweja Bay, with its unique Inland Sea and famous Azure Window. It is always recommended to hire a car but Gozo enjoys a very good bus service and a bus stop is located a few meters away from the building.

"Unbelievable, we didn't want to leave!"
I did not think the apartment could possible measure up to our expectations based on the pictures, but it far exceeded them. We are already trying to plan a return. The apartment is in an awesome location, removed, but not too removed. The sea view and the terraces were 100X more awesome than expected, there is as much or more outdoor private space as indoor. All rooms decorated perfectly, comfortably, and like a picture from a magazine. I'd wouldn't have changed anything. I cook, and the kitchen was well equipped for doing almost all of out cooking. We loved the apartment so much, I didn't leave the building for the first 4 days.
