Catch and release
Date: March 28, 2012
by: Observer Staff
Curt and Pia Laguerre Ravn caught an injured blue heron after nine weeks of an ongoing effort with Save Our Seabirds. Save Our Seabirds received many calls about the male heron, who was badly injured with a large fishing hook in his side. Charlie, the name the Ravns gave him, frequented Whitney Beach daily.That's where the Ravns attempted for weeks to lure him with sardines. Pia Ravn eventually caught him using scallops. Charlie was taken to Save Our Seabirds and underwent a two-hour operation to remove the hook and stitch him up. He is now healed and still visits Whitney Beach.

Apart from the Tour de France
July is Cambridge Open Studios month when many of the artists in the city and surrounding area open their doors to show and sell work to visitors. My studio is at St Barnabas Press which goes a long way to putting the dust into industrial unit. Much cleaning and tidying later, we opened the doors on Saturday.
Continuing with ideas of space and travel my works are all ink painting this year evoking atmosphere and landscape. Each piece is to be titled by the buyer from a list I have written as part of the series.

We have a much colder morning once again in KELOLAND with morning lows in the upper teens and lower 20s. It still looks chilly this afternoon with some scattered sprinkles or flurries possible today in many areas. Highs will be mainly the lower 40s, with a few upper 30s in the northeast.
Look for a chilly night tonight, but a warmer forecast is ahead tomorrow. It does look breezy, so the "feels-like" temperature won't be as nice in many areas of eastern KELOLAND. Pierre and Rapid City will be warmer around 60 with less wind.
Wednesday will be a warmer day in the southeast with Sioux Falls around 59. However, Aberdeen will be much colder with snow and highs in the mid 30s. We'll have more details on this system as it approaches.
The weather still looks cool on Thursday, but some warmer numbers are in the forecast by Easter weekend. In fact, 70s are possible by Easter Sunday.

This custom oval poker table is made from maple dyed to match the client's mahogany pool table. The racetrack is maple plywood and the playing surface is "bronze" suited casino cloth. The solid maple trestle style legs and stainless steel cupholders complete the package.

Why is the number 11 important on Instagram? Is it the number of posts per month? The number of words you should use to describe an image? Actually, it's none of the above.
Why is the number 11 important on Instagram? Is it the number of posts per month? The number of words you should use to describe an image?
None of the above.
The number 11 represents a simple but important tipping point. Once you earn 11 likes on Instagram for a photo that you've posted, the service shrinks down the likes from a list of your friends' handles to a number. I'm sure Instagram was simply applying good design principles to its Web interface, but unbeknownst to the platform, it has created a powerful form of social validation. The number 11 now represents when your Instagram image has hit a certain level of credibility.
Admittedly, I am not that cool on Instagram, since some of my images don't hit this threshold, but for many users this simple milestone is important. In a study MRY conducted on Millennials' technology behavior, one young woman noted passionately the need to reach this number. "If I don't hit 11 likes, I take down the post after a day -- it's just too embarrassing to leave up there. Nobody likes it." The embarrassment of not being validated trumps the need to share the image. Another respondent spoke about how he plans his posts around what he called "Instagram Time." Content has the highest chance of reaching the 11th level of virality during this Instagram "rush hour," which takes place when people are commuting home around 5 p.m. to 7 p.m
The three steps of the Rule of 11, as illustrated by MRY's Instagram posts:
These individual metrics mattered to the new consumer, and these were not isolated cases: respondent after respondent reiterated the need to reach this number. We live in a world where brands and businesses are so concerned with Web and business analytics. Advertising experts plan for this and strategize, but we often forget about personal analytics. What gauge of success makes our users, customers, and friends look good? What if brands planned for consumers' personal validation and not just brand validation? What if we turned the mirror?
This shift redefines the way we work.
Don't plan for broadcast, plan for the response: In most traditional strategic disciplines, we plan for the intended message and the outbound content when in fact we should be planning for the response. What are we going to say that will be the most persuasive and clear? How do we want people to react? A positive reaction, whether it's a click, a message to the brand, or a like, is the hardest but best gauge of personal success. It means the person actually cares about what the brand has to say. We need to have an indicator of how we want consumers to react to our brand and --if we achieve this -- how we will respond in turn.

According to Storefront, "Letters to the Mayor presents fifty letters written by international architects to the political leaders of more than 20 cities around the world. Each letter provides a space of reflection for the architect to present ideas and methodologies and express some of the concerns and desires that might contribute to action within political spheres."
At the opening, Storefront will announce the winners of its "Competition of Competitions," which invited interdisciplinary teams to "formulate their visions of the future of architecture and cities in the form of a competition brief."

Allan Wexler: Breaking Ground
Ronald Feldman Fine Arts
31 Mercer Street, New York
Through May 3, 2014
The current Allan Wexler exhibit, Breaking Ground, at Ronald Feldman Fine Arts proves again how important is the work of architects who confine their production to the gallery.

Wexler first builds models of his imagined landscapes out of plaster and museum board before photographing them and digitally manipulating and printing them. The Architect's Newspaper will celebrate Wexler's extraordinary forty five year career with a special reception at the Feldman gallery Tuesday, April, 29th from 6:00–8:00p.m.

Q+A> Oren Safdie's "False Solution" Debuts In Santa Monica
Thursday, April 24, 2014
Sam Lubell.
For those architects with an interest in theater, Wednesday was the West Coast premiere of Oren Safdie's newest play, False Solution, at the Santa Monica Playhouse (tickets may be purchased here). Safdie earned an M.Arch at Columbia University and is the son of architect Moshe Safdie. He has now written three plays inspired by contemporary architecture, including The Bilbao Effect and Private Jokes, Public Spaces. False Solution, which also played in New York last summer, follows Anton Seligman, a successful architect whose latest commission, a new Holocaust museum in Poland, is aggressively challenged by one of his new interns, Linda Johansson. She also confronts his beliefs in himself, his career, his profession, and much more. Continue reading after the jump.

Richard Rogers Theater
226 West 46th Street, New York
Scheduled to play through October 12, 2014
The Broadway musical If/Then starts in Madison Square Park with its unmistakable folding seats, tables, and umbrellas, a signature of Janette Sadik-Khan's overhauling of public spaces during the Bloomberg administration.

On View> "Apex: Tip Toland" at the Portland Art Museum
Thursday, April 10, 2014
The Editors.
Apex: Tip Toland
Portland Art Museum
1219 SW Park Avenue
Portland, Oregon
Through May 11
Washington-based artist Tip Toland creates larger than life figures with painfully accurate details that highlight her subjects' imperfections: wrinkles, sunspots, and other blemishes. Toland's work has always dealt with figurative subject matter, though her approach has ranged from the surreal to the super-real. This exhibition focuses on the plight of albino children in Africa, many of whom face a never-ending nightmare of bigoted, superstitious persecution at the hand of the communities into which they are born. Deeply rooted in psychology, Toland's carefully crafted portraits seek to disturb viewers, teasing out their deepest human sympathies only to clobber them with the cudgel of political subtext. The artist has said that her work "softens our hearts to what we are afraid of." Unflinching in the face of terrible realities, it is certainly provocative.

From the Village to Vogue: The Modernist Jewelry of Art Smith
Cincinnati Museum of Art
953 Eden Park Drive

From the Village to Vogue: The Modernist Jewelry of Art Smith consists of twenty-four pieces of silver and gold jewelry created by the Brooklyn-reared modernist jeweler Arthur Smith (1917–1982). Smith trained at Cooper Union and opened his first shop on Cornelia Street in Greenwich Village in 1946. Art was an active supporter of the black and gay rights movement and early black modern dance groups. He included these themes in his works.
Little BIG Maze: Bjarke Ingels Group Designs Labyrinth for National Building Museum
Wednesday, April 2, 2014
Scott Kelly.
The National Building Museum was smart to wait till April 2nd to announce their latest project, lest anyone think it was a cleverly crafted April Fool's prank. The Washington, D.C.–based institution said today over Twitter ("A-MAZE-ING NEWS") that Bjarke Ingels Group (BIG) will design an unconventional maze to be temporarily housed in its grand atrium. Perhaps inspired by the summer tradition of the corn maze, the BIG installation will debut in the West Court of the building's cavernous Great Hall on July 4th, bringing new meaning to Independence Day to those wandering within its walls.

Shawnee National Forest
Colorado Springs, Colorado
What better place to feel like a god or goddess while on vacation than in the Garden of the Gods? A National Natural Landmark since 1971, this public park has 15 miles of easy-to-moderate hiking trails, and is popular for technical rock climbing, road and mountain biking, and horseback riding. Two surveyors first came across this distinctive area of sandstone formations in 1859. One declared it a great place for a beer garden. The other rallied for its more hallowed recognition.

I got the end of this bottle at a tasting party, so my glass had tonnsss of oaky chunks a-floating in it. Deep brown in color, can't see through it. Small bubbles with a good head covering it with a khaki brown head. Amazing scents of oakiness, chocolate and coffee. I let the oak chunks settle so I could sip and enjoy this wonderful flavor. I love the oak flavors in this! They are not overwhelming at all, just perfect. Coffee and toffe in there also... Smooth and creamy mouthfeel, easy drinking for us stout lovers! sooo yummy!

This was bottled in 2006 and has been properly cellard since then.
Creamy, light brown head - fully dimished.
Aroma: heavy on the malt and dark bread, heavy smoke (yum), clove, and pepper. Even though it's four years old there isn't any of the raisin, port aroma that's so typical of cellared beers. Even after four years this beer has really gottenbetter. One of my best cellaring experiences. So many of the beers I've cellard have proven to be dissapointments. This goes down really smooth. Can't feel or taste the 10.5 ABV

Frothy, aromatic, and exceptional taste. Left Hand continues to make some of the best brews out there. This one is one of their best. Tastes of cherry, licorice and toffee, it is one exceptional stout. I will most definitly be revisiting this offering.

aged in french oak wine barrels, bottle conditioned.
I was a little worried about the 3 fingers of space under the cork. I was further worried about the cork not popping out (flat?), and I had come to this beer with no expectations because I've been disappointed with "aged" ales lately. Old is more like it. So I pour without excitement, but with a little cynicism.
Umm, that's good. A tall mocha froth issues forth with little effort. The resulting beer meringue results from irregularly shaped bubbles, and looks like the crumb of a long-risen, levain bread. There's a pleasant steady rise of carbonation barely visible in the burnt brown juice. The lace is like a quilt.
Smells like figs, tawny port, date pudding.
It has a surprising soft mouthfeel. It's more on the buttery, melt-in-your-mouth side of things although some tar from the burnt malt stickers the tongue. Layers of burnt fruit. The alcohol is present, but not at all invasive. That's just amazingly soft and supple. The aftertaste just melts away.... like a nice chocolate truffle.
In fact, that is the best way to describe this beer. It has an initial crunch of acrid malts and dark cocoa. Once into this there is big sweetness tempered with alcohol. Wonderfully fruited with ripe pit fruits, spiced with a small herbal presence. The fruitiness is both tangy and fresh, and rich and dried. Then it's gone. This melts on the tongue. It's not thin though, just beautiful: Like a delicious truffle. What a wonderful experience.

The Left Hand Oak Aged Imperial Stout is incredible. I expected this to be good but not this good. The appearance had good dark color completed by a rich creamy head as expected with a stout. The aroma is amazing and probably the best part of the brew. I got a rich grain aroma, which was a great surprise to go along with robust chocolate notes. Taste was also amazing. The taste was of expensive dark chocolate and was complemented with a peculiar sweetness. The complexity of the sweetness was mixed between vanilla notes and the sense of alcohol. Due to this complexity the high alcohol content of beer was hardly noticeable. The final result was a smooth finish that left me asking for more. Left Hand really surprised me with the Oak Aged Imperial Stout. I will most defiantly be looking for this brew again next year.

Opened from a 750ml bottle this pours a dark black light does not pass though, it is topped with a thin whit head. The smell is immediate oak with a backing of coffee. Taste is a sweet coffee with some vanilla on the back of the tongue this is an excellent stout. Mouthfeel is a very smooth creamy texture you cannot feel the alcohol in this at all. Drinkability is the only issue here and only because it is 10.4% this stuff goes down smooth. i will definitely be heading to the store to pick up the few bottles that are still on the shelf.

Black with a light white head in a standard pint glass. Smells good like chocolate. Tastes very good, more chocolate, different than all other RIS in my opinion just like the regular version (but way better, like comparing tootsie rolls and gourmet chocolate), excellent flavor. Drinkability is crazy despite the 10.4%, which was pretty much undetectable to the tongue. I really expected this beer to fall far short of expectations due to the price but it is very good and I got it on sale for $9 so...yes it was worth it and I am going to try and get some more. This beer was impressive and by far the best Left Hand beer I have ever had.
This is about a year old at this point and the wood has really started to show up. There is an astringent mouthfeel and a decent amount of carbonation. I think I liked this beer a lot more about 8 months ago.
The wood seems to have faded back in this beer. There is a hard-candy flavor and for a moment I tasted malted milk balls. Still, the alcohol has not been tamed much. Honestly I think this beer was better fresh and should not have been aged. Oh, well.

2009 vintage seems to be coming around a bit better than when it was released earlier this year, I had one then and I wasn't impressed enough to even write a review. Appears pitch black, abolishes all visible light spectrums, does form with a very nice sized tan head with excellent retention. Lacing definitely sticks to the sides and with the 10 percent alcohol by volume and oak brandy barrel aging I'm surprised that the head holds up so well. Aromatics offer up awesome complex fruit layers hidden amongst teh dark chocolate and roasted coffee edges from the loads of dark malts added into this brew. Hops in the nose range from mild pine to deep herbal tones, but you can tell there's a good amount of hops to stand up to the alcohol and the malts to equate to some balance. A nice even creamy dark chocolate tone really stands out, with maybe just a touch of charred vanilla the oaked aging effects are pretty minimal thanks to the blending of oak with non oaked imperial stout I believe the ratio is 25/75. Flavor brings on a collision of alcohol deep fruit, ripened fruit soaked in alcohol sherry notes with charred oak vanilla, a touch of soy sauce and deep anise notes as well. Dark roasted coffee with bitter dark chocolate, and bring on the earthy/pine hoppiness in there as well. Pure poetry I'm glad I snagged one of the surviving bottles from this past winter it's really making a mark on me, not a huge fan of oak aged beers this one is excellent. Mouhfeel glides and leaves you warm with hope that someday not all Oak aged beers will suck and be so overhyped, because my friends this one is the shit. Full bodied yet creamy textured all the way, simply rolls across the palate...not many other beer experiences to compare this to. Carbonation is dead on just barely makes an imprint on it slow moving bubbles that are sturdy enough to back up the big lucious malt profile. Drinkability, I'm enamored by the fact that I have come across an oak aged brew that is fanfuckin'tastic, forget sharing with friends enjoy or horde by yourself. Kidding break this one out with fellow beer enthusiasts and blow people away, another knockout beer from Left Hand.

2009 22oz Bottle Split 3 Ways with Friends.
Pours a nice dark red brown, bordering on black with a very creamy off-white head that falls fairly quickly but rises if you swirl the glass. Leaves some lacing.
Very full nose of oak, chocolate, roasted malts, caramel with alcohol hints.
Huge and thick flavors of sweet roasted malts, caramel, chocolate and oak. The alcohol is very prominent being the only detractor from a perfect experience.
Big, thick and smooth body with a light carbonation. Fills and coats the mouth. Goes down warm and fills you up.
Great sipping beer but gets a little much with so much alcohol. A single bottle would last all night or make a couple good friends.
I went on a Imperial Stout purchasing spree and knew before I opened it that this would be another great brew from Left Hand.

Bottle. Poured a blackish-brown color with a medium light-brown head. Pleasant but faint aroma of wood, malt, and chocolate. Excellent full mouthfeel. Flavor is nice, with strong dark malt and oak tones and a dark chocolate finish. Smooth beer. I wasn't that excited about this, but a nice offering from Left Hand.

Bottle Inspection: Left Hand Oak Aged Imperial Stout 2007. Corked and caged 750ml brown bottle. I picked it up a year or so ago and it's been sitting in my beer closet at about 68 F until I pulled it's reluctant cork on March 14, 2008. Notes: Malt beverage 25% aged in oak barrels. 10.4% abv., ingredients: Rocky Mountain water, malted barley, flaked oats, hops and yeast.
Aroma: Dark tar, like just dried coffee with a heady West Coast hop fragrance borne by alcoholic fumes. Hint of dark roasted barley and a slightly lactic sweet stout note.
Appearance: Dark black with a finger wide ruby edge showing fair clarity. Cap is mocha froth clinging and looping on the side of the glass. Bubbles slowly slide back to the bottom of the glass showing just wicked legs.
Flavor: Balanced by extremes. Deep wet barley malt roasted but far from burnt. As far as the malt goes down, the hops go up with a combination of earthy and citric flavors that complements the malt base perfectly. Dark chocolate creamy bitterness.
Mouthfeel: Liquid is smooth and soft like cream. Heavy body with a silky feel (presumably from the oats) with just prickles of carbonation and alcohol. Warms my throat and chest.
Overall Impression: Just an outstanding beer. I'm impressed with what I don't get a lot of here.
Cloying sweet malt bomb? Nope.
Bitter or faded hops? Nope.
Strong hot alcohol? Nope.
Heavy woody oak funk? Nope.
Off flavors or flaws? Nope.
A very nice blended beer that brings loads of great tastes, great feel, nice looks, and a pleasant nose. It's a monster with a wicked abv. It hides the knife with ease. Really hard to say anything unpleasant about this one, I wish I had snagged a few extras as this is truly a celebration beer.
Aged 1 year: Strongly recommended

Best stout I have had in long time. The bourbon is not at all overpowering like in some other barrel aged beers. Rather, it plays second fiddle to the bold malt flavors which lends to a great overall flavor. Although the taste of this brew is exceptional, the way it coasts your mouth and lingers is second to none, which in my book places this beer near the top of the list. All around an outstanding stout. Kudos to Left Hand!! By the way, my 4 for drinkability is a result of the high alcohol content in this beer. Just a couple will get the job done.

GLASS: Snifter
TEMP: Cellared @ approx 45 degrees
Pours super dark brown. Practically black. One-finger head of creamy light brown foam. Dissipates to a thin filmy layer. Lacing is spotty, and somewhat minimal, but what is there is sufficently sticky.
Smells delicious. Nice presence of sweet roasted malts. Almost cherry-like. Good hints of oak and brandy. Dark fruits with a light touch of brown sugar. Mild earthy notes. Very light traces af vanilla.
Man, that is nice. Sweet roasted dark malts. Hints of cocoa powder. Smooth sweet touch of vanilla. Dark fruits drizzeled in a light brown sugar glaze. Hints of butterey oak with a light touch of smoke. Light booziness of brandy with a slight warming charachteristic. Mild hints of caramel.
Being fresh this one is begging for some cellaring time, despite that it's delicious, already. I can't wait to see how this one opens up in a year or two.
This truly is representative of what I, personally, want my beer to feel like, in my mouth. It's so smooth and creamy. Like caressing your tongue with some weird liquid velvet and silk hybrid thing. This is absolutely wonderful in the mouth.
According to Left Hand Brewing's website, I'm going to assume that this brew has 10.2% ABV. Damned if I can taste it, though. This is truly a hit out of the park for Laft Hand. Super tasty and super drinkable. This one is a total keeper.

I always have trouble getting the corks out of these bottles. What I usually do is break the top part off trying to take it out, then use a corkscrew. This beer is definitely worth buying a corkscrew if you don't have one. I am going to start oak aging everything I eat and drink if it turns out this well. The beer is a dark black color with a massively thick dark beige head. The aroma is roased malt, toffee and chocolate. Big rich and sweet body just how I like them. Abundant malt flavor, along with chocolate, coffee and vanilla. The finish has the perfect amount of hops and dark chocolate to balance it out. This is a truly great Imperial Stout.

This was payment for some major repairs done to my fathers computer. I tend to work fairly cheap for family. So Ive been storing this in my cellar for about 6 months waiting for the proper time to crack open the ultra-sweet bottle. My wife even bought a couple brandy snifters for the occasion.
The color was an extremely deep ruby almost black but the light penetrated the bottom and edges of the glass. The ½ inch head left a tiny circle around the edge which produced an oil slick in my mouth.
The smell was difficult to pick up at first but I eventually came to the conclusion of semi-sweet chocolate and cherries. Near the end I had a small amount of alcohol and oak aroma.
First sip was too cold so I let it breathe a little. Second time around subtle dark fruits and wood broke the palate followed by chocolate and molasses. An alcohol burn warmed as it went down.
Oily, chewy, and a faint effervescence gives this an overall decent score in the mouthfeel department.
This is a highly recommended and drinkable brew. Be forewarned though, with its high alcohol content it can leave one feeling a little drows ..
On a side note I dont think Ill buy this again just because of the $12.99 price tag, wait, I didnt buy it.

This came in a 750mL bottle - nice label. Aged in Oak Barrels. Pours a very dark color with a very tall and dark head that dies off slowly and leaves some lacing. Hints of chocolate, coffee, and oak apparent in the aroma. The flavor has a lot of big, dark malts - just my style. Slightly bitter finish and lots of nice coffee flavors. Very well crafted.

Vintage 2003
Dark redwood with a silky tan head.
A big oaky vanilla over molasses, cocao, dried fruit, port drenched grapes, bready roasted malts and complex alcohols.
Hugely complex, this has aged very well. Lots of sweet fruits, dark chocolate and coffee surrounded by the well balanced oak. Alcohols have matured nicely.
Full body with suprisingly heavy carbonation.
Very nice example of a barrel aged stout. Like always, needs more time in the wood.

It's the end of February, and the end of what I hope you will agree was a very satisfying series of 19 "Migration and Deployment" articles by my teammates and me – the U.S. based IT Pro Technology Evangelists.
"So what's the last topic?"
I'm glad you asked. Now that you know (or have the resources to further learn) everything there is to know about deploying operating systems (client and server), deploying virtual machines and services, and deploying applications, you might finally wonder what kind of control you have over these applications you've deployed.
"Yeah.. didn't Microsoft have software restriction policies that could enforce limits on what can be installed or run?"
Exactly. The most recent version was technology called AppLocker. In Windows Vista and Windows 7 it allowed you to set those kinds of restrictions through Group Policy. But what about the new Windows 8 applications?
"Yeah! What about those?!"
Well, that's what my friend Matt Hester writes about in this last, part 19, article in our series.
Did you enjoy the series? Did you know that we have another series starting immediately? Yep. In March, you're all going to become Microsoft Virtualization (and Hyper-V) experts. …or at least well on your way there.

Texas State University will host the Southwest Regional Learning Assistant Workshop April 4th and 5th in beautiful San Marcos Texas.
The Learning Assistant Alliance aims to transform large-enrollment courses and recruit future K-12 STEM teachers through the dissemination of the Learning Assistant model.
The Learning Assistant (LA) model was developed in STEM departments at University of Colorado-Boulder in 2003 (http://laprogram.colorado.edu/), and has since spread to many other schools and other content departments. In the LA model, undergraduate students are trained in content and pedagogy and assist in transforming large-enrollment courses into more interactive learning environments. The program has played a major role in improving instruction, in inspiring STEM majors to explore teaching as a career, and in supporting development of strong critical thinking and communication skills. While the majority of LA programs currently serve STEM departments, the model is applicable for other content areas as well, and is beginning to be used in some social science and humanities departments. We welcome faculty of all content disciplines to this workshop.
Our regional workshop is modeled after the national workshops held each year at the University of Colorado - Boulder. Because of the popularity of these workshops, this year, the Learning Assistant Alliance has organized five regional workshops. These workshops are designed for faculty, staff and administrators who are new to the idea of LAs, those who are just getting started with an LA Program, and those who are expanding or sustaining an existing LA Program.
Please choose the appropriate registration link below:
Regular registration ($25): 2014 Southwest Regional LA Workshop Registration Link
Graduate student registration ($10): 2014 Southwest Regional LA Workshop Graduate Student Registration Link
Texas State University faculty registration ($0): Texas State University faculty registration

3.39/5 rDev -4.5%
12oz. bottle poured into pint glass.
A: Pours a rich copper color with a creamy tan head that starts out two-fingers in height after an aggressive pour. Dwindles pretty quickly, leaving an acceptable amount of lacing down the sides. A roughly 1/4" creamy cap retains like a champion.
S: Floral hops with some citrus fruit. Grapefruit dominates the citric aspect with some tangerines floating around. A little bit of grassiness and some bready malts lingering. Aroma is intense, but lacks in complexity. Nothing astounding, but nothing that can be scored too harshly.
T: Those bready malts up front. A little bit of caramel malt maybe? There's a lot of malt presence in the initial sip. Some weak hop bitterness cuts through, but doesn't really do a great job of taking the driver's seat on the flavor bus. A little bit of medicinal-like bitterness in the end that's still overshadowed by the lingering malt presence. None of these flavors are bad, by any means, but they're very disappointing for an IPA.
M: Medium body, maybe slightly above, I'd say. Crisp carbonation. A bit chewy in the mouth, likely due to the strong malt presence. This one feels great and definitely has some session potential. It's overall a bit too chewy and clean in the finish for me though, given the style.
O: I want to clear up that even though my score for this infers mediocrity, that's not particularly the case. Starr Hill's Northern Lights is a quite enjoyable brew. It's flavorful, it's smooth, it's a great grab for sessioning, BUT it's not a good example of what I look for in an IPA, and I scored accordingly. The malt presence is too dominant and the hops, for the most part, take the backseat. Like I said, this brew is enjoyable and sessionable, but not what I look for in an IPA. This would serve better as perhaps an American Amber Ale, perhaps?

Good to see this brew show up in my local area.Poured into a nonic a dull slightly hazed full golden with a large tight wthite head that left broken rows of lace as it settled slowly.If I did a blind test on aroma I would never think this was an American IPA,mainly caramel malt with just a passing herbal hop note,not to impressed with that.Flavors regain a little of the hop character but still mild in my mind,light citric and herbal hop mixed with some biscuit malt.A little thin and not the most complex IPA but its not awful.

Bottle pours a hazy amber body with a medium offwhite head. Abundant patch lacing adorns the glass.
Aroma has lots of grassy/earthy hops with a hint of grapefruit. Biscuity caramel malt underneath.
Mouthfeel is medium in body and carbonation with a mild hops bite.
Taste begins with a grapefruit hoppiness which quickly turns to a bitter and grainy earthiness. Maltiness is grainy and biscuity. Finishes with some citrus rind with a grassy hop bitterness in the aftertaste.
A decent American IPA but the grainy bitterness detracts. Not as good as the other Starr Hill brews I've sampled.

One of the two cask offerings at the downtown Capital Ale House. Major kudos to the wife for suggesting CAH as a dinner location to celebrate Anniversary #5.
Light amber in color. Clear, with a nice layer of off-white head. Sticky lacing of the glass all the way down. Aromas are somewhat small. There are notes of bitter hops, mostly grassy/citrus and a smidgen of sweetness. Flavor is more of the same. A cask-mellowed flavor of bitterness up front. Nothing brash. Middle allows the honey sweetness to stand center stage. Finishes with a well-balanced bitterness that is attenutated by a caramel sweetness. Good mouthfeel and drinkability. Just beind the Big Daddy in my book.

Purchased this beer-six-pack of 12 oz.bottles at at the Broadway Deli in Richmond, Va
A. Sightly hazy when first poured cold into a glass. It almost gives the appearance of being non filtered. It soon clears into a nice amber-copper color.
S. The smell is the only drawback to this beer. It doesnt smell nearly as good as it looks or tastes.
T Very smoothe and extremey hoppy. The hops hang around on the front-sides then back of the tongue for a long time. If you like hops, this beer will definitley give you your fix.
M. Appropriately carbonated and surprisingly rich for an IPA with an ABV of only 5.8% (this is what it says on the label, contrary to the information above)
D. Very drinkable. Great with spicy food. The reasonable ABV makes this a beer you can sit down with and enjoy a few.

Poured in a tulip glass, carbonation bubbles climb up the glass moderately.. finger and a half head I would say
A: Foggy copper color....some good lacing but the head fizzles away before you know it
S: Slight hop smell... It's very subtle but you pick it up. As far as an IPA goes i think this smell won't turn away any newcomers from trying it.
T: Hops... it's kinda watered down though, good intro beer to this style since it wont overwhelm your palate.
MF: The taste lingers in your mouth like all IPA's but it's not as strong as others that I've had. Drinkability is very high on this one, but it doesn't knock my socks off.
O: I like this beer... but I don't love it. Nothing is wrong with it, just saying that i want more from an IPA. I encourage people who haven't had an IPA before to try this one...it's a fabulous intro to this style.

12 oz bottle dated best by Nov. 2011 served in a pint glass.
Light orange/amber; hazy with a generous off-white head that looks both sudsy and creamy. Lots of irregular sticky lacing.
Aroma is mainly hoppy citrus with some malt, grass and pine underneath. Somewhat herbal. Alcohols esters appear upon warming.
T - The taste features a citrus-tinged but mainly bitter hop bite. Plenty of white grapefruit bitterness in the lasting finish ... more than warranted by the mid-taste hop level.
M: medium body; very good carbonation level.
O - bolder than average, but lacking the balance and complexity of a world-class IPA.

Rios-Alvarado II Set for Saturday. March 30 live on HBO
LAS VEGAS, NEV. — To quote Hall of Fame baseball superstar Ernie Banks, "Let's play two."
That's exactly what undefeated former world champion BRANDON "Bam Bam" RIOS and top-rated contender "Mile High" MIKE ALVARADO will do when they face each other in a rematch of their 2012 Fight of the Year-nominated fight. Rios-Alvarado II will take place, Saturday, March 30 at the Mandalay Bay Events Center in Las Vegas, Nev. The 12-round World Boxing Organization (WBO) interim junior welterweight championship rumble will be televised live on HBO Boxing After Dark®, beginning at 10:15 p.m. ET/PT.
In their first fight, last October 13, a battle of undefeated gladiators, Rios and Alvarado fought toe-to-toe and non-stop for seven thrilling rounds that saw dramatic momentum shifts throughout the action-packed bout. Two of the judges had the fight scored even before referee Pat Russell stopped the fight at 1:57 of the seventh round, awarding the TKO victory to Rios. Media and fans alike compared Rios-Alvarado to the great matches of the past 50 years, including Ali-Frazier III, Corrales -Castillo I and Hagler-Hearns, based on action and entertainment value.
Promoted by Top Rank®, in association with Tecate, tickets to Rios-Alvarado II are on sale and priced at $250, $150, $100, and $50, not including applicable service charges, tickets are limited to eight (8) per person and will be available for purchase at all Ticketmaster locations (select Smith's Food and Drug Centers and Ritmo Latino). To charge by phone with a major credit card, call Mandalay Bay at (877) 632-7400 or Ticketmaster (800) 745-3000. Tickets are also available for purchase at www.MandalayBay.com or www.Ticketmaster.com.
Fans who are interested in not only purchasing tickets to the fight but also booking a room at Mandalay Bay can earn a special offer, including a discounted room rate along with a $25 resort credit. This sweet deal can be accessed by visiting https://resweb.passkey.com/go/erank13b.
Rios (31-0-1, 22 KOs), the former World Boxing Association (WBA) lightweight champion, from Oxnard, Calif., is on the hunt for his second world title in as many weight divisions. He enters this fight having won 11 of his previous 13 fights by knockout. One of boxing's most exciting fighters, Rios is known for his all-action fan-friendly fighting style. His trainer, former International Boxing Federation (IBF) junior lightweight champion and 2012 Trainer of the Year Robert Garcia, calls it a "throwback" style with a warrior's mentality that screams excitement. Highlight knockout victories on Rios' resume include Miguel Acosta, Anthony Peterson, Urbano Antillon, John Murray and of course Alvarado. Alvarado, the natural 140-pounder, entered that fight as the undefeated WBO No. 1 junior welterweight contender. Rios, by virtue of his TKO victory over Alvarado, is currently world-rated No. 1 by the WBO.
Alvarado (33-1, 23 KOs) of Denver, Colo., had won 10 of his last 13 bouts by stoppage en route to a career-high No. 1 world rating in the WBO when he battled Rios. Notable Alvarado knockout victims included Breidis Prescott, Ray Narh, Emmanuel Clottey and Cesar Bazan. In 2012 Alvarado fought in two Fight of the Year-nominated fights. Last April, Alvarado went toe-to-toe for 10 brutal and exciting rounds winning a unanimous decision over Mauricio Herrera (18-1, 7 KOs). Herrera entered that fight world-rated No. 7 and riding a two-year, five-bout winning streak, highlighted by victories over Ruslan Provodnikov (17-0) and Mike Dallas, Jr. (17-1-1). That was followed by Rios in October. Despite losing to Rios by a technical knockout, his effort and talent are so respected he still remains highly rated, where he is ranked No. 3 by the WBO.

Bertelsmann builds new P2P platform
By From the Web - Source: Tom's Hardware US | 0 comment
Former Naptser investor Bertelsmann AG is launching a new file-sharing service to address the intellectual-property issues that had plagued popular music-swapping services in the past.
Dubbed Gnab (or "bang" in reverse), the service will be offered by Bertelsmann subsidiary Arvato AG later this year. It will combine a centralized Internet download platform with a decentralized peer-to-peer (P2P) network.

At this point, I think it is safe to say — as our own Bobby Ross, Jr., has demonstrated numerous times — that many mainstream American journalists have decided that there is no need to cover both sides of gay-rights stories in a balanced and accurate manner. Many professionals in the mainstream press are now practicing a brand of advocacy journalism when covering religious believers whose religious/moral doctrines are not the same as their own.
Do we have former New York Times editor Bill Keller to thank for some of this, or is the mainstreaming of the values preached by the prophets of the 1970s "New Journalism" era simply a sign of the times?
The other day, the staff at The Philadelphia Inquirer served up a perfect example of what your GetReligionistas are talking about. The curtain rises:
PHILADELPHIA – It began with one pastor and two grooms. But after the vows had been exchanged, the other clergy moved forward from their pews.
About 50 of them filled the front of Arch Street United Methodist Church on Saturday. The closest rested their hands on the couple. The rest placed their palms on the clergy nearest.
"Those whom God has joined together, let no one put asunder," they said in unison, blessing the same-sex union in defiance of church law.
This is the latest act in the ongoing drama of the the Rev. Frank Schaefer of Lebanon, Pa., who is about to face trial — under church law — for performing a marriage rite for his own son and another man. Each of the ministers who stepped forward to endorse the rite at Arch Street United Methodist now risks being charged with the same offense.
So what are the essential elements that should be included in a story about this highly divisive issue?
* You need a brief summary of the historical facts about this conflict in United Methodism and the oldline Protestant world, in general. We are talking decades, of course.
* You need to know what the church's Book of Discipline actually teaches.
* You need solid quotes from those who oppose the existing church law, quotes that explain why they believe that centuries of Christian doctrine on this topic must be changed.
* It would help to have a dash of color from the rite itself, with examples of how this rite differs from the language used in traditional marriage services.
* Readers also need to hear from one or more articulate defenders of the church law, offering responses to the views of those rebelling against the church's teachings.
So, want to guess how many of these factors end up being included in the Philly.com story?

Problems surrounding giant sinkhole grow for property owner
SUGAR CREEK, Mo. - The owner of Best Buy Car Company in Sugar Creek has seen the sink hole in his business parking lot getting bigger in recent months.
Owner Mark Cosgrove also considers the hole a safety hazard that has attracted curious neighborhood kids to check it out.
"People who have seen kids around here run them out of here. I'm really concerned about that," Cosgrove said.
That is not Cosgrove's only concern. The main water line that runs into the dealership has been exposed to the elements due to the sinkhole. When Cosgrove got to work Wednesday, he discovered frozen pipes. For a car dealership, water is important.
"Without water, we can't clean vehicles up. Without clean vehicles we can't sell them. No one wants to buy a dirty car," Cosgrove said.
The sinkhole developed during heavy rains over Labor Day. Storm water runs from Independence, under 24 highway and through the pipe under Cosgrove's property.
"We just can't see how we're responsible for all that storm water," he said.
Call For Action contacted several agencies and jurisdictions, including the Sugar Creek City Hall, the Missouri Department of Natural Resources and the Missouri Department of Transportation.
A MoDOT engineer said Thursday an official decision on who should repair the hole has not been made. However, after investigating with several agencies, the property owner will most likely need to repair it and cover the expenses himself. The broken pipe is on Cosgrove's property and not part of MoDOT's right of way.
"It blows my mind that they went this long. It is almost four months now and we still haven't heard anything from anybody about this," Cosgrove said.
Cosgrove is now taking matters into his own hands. He began filling in the hole with chunks of rock in order to cover the frozen pipes. He also wants to remove the hazard and keep anyone from getting hurt.
Once MoDOT makes an official determination, the agency will notify Cosgrove. He said he plans to hire an attorney to take legal action if MoDOT wants him to for to fix it.
