CEOs' View of Marketing: Cloudy with a Chance of Opportunity
CEOs need your help—they just don't know it yet. The results of the 2010 HealthLeaders Media Industry Survey show a disconnect between marketing-related initiatives hospital leaders plan to take on in coming years and their esteem (or lack thereof) for the marketing department. Lucky for you, the first step to solving a problem is learning about it. We've got you covered there.
Views on marketing quality
One of the largest disparities between marketing executives and CEOs is their opinion about the quality of marketing at their organizations. Marketers seem quite pleased with their work, with most ranking it "very strong" (30%) or "slightly strong" (41%). CEOs' opinions, on the other hand, are less positive, with just 11.5% selecting "very strong" and 42% selecting "slightly strong."
A simple explanation for this is that marketers are immersed in and are proud of their work, so of course they're more likely to rate it higher than CEOs, who might not see all of the work marketers do. The problem here lies in perception—your department could be producing the "Starry Night" of the healthcare advertising world, but if your most influential critic isn't impressed, it might as well be in The Museum of Bad Art. (It's real—I live down the street from it.)
Marketing execs not quite in the inner circle
Continuing with this theme, marketing execs seem to have a skewed vision of their influence on hospital leadership. Fifty-three percent of them say they felt "highly valued" by the CEO and another 34% said they are "moderately valued." Similarly, 42% say they are a "key leader who contributes to overall organizational strategy" and 32% say the CMO is an important operations leader.
Even when marketing execs were asked to rate how valued the marketing department's efforts were among internal stakeholders, CEOs fared best—they were the only group that the majority of marketing leaders (53%) say "highly valued" their initiatives. After CEOs, the numbers quickly dropped off. Just 15% of marketing leaders say hospital staff highly valued their work. Physicians came in next with 14%, followed by CFOs, with 13%.
But again, CEO responses tell a different tale; just 24% said their chief marketing officer is represented on the senior executive team that works on strategic planning, ranking them eighth on the list—the same spot as in our 2009 survey.
"That tells me that there are a number of healthcare marketers who are either in denial about their role and/or perceived value in the organization, or who are somehow misreading the signals from leadership," Chris Bevolo, president of Interval, a marketing firm in Minneapolis, MN, told HealthLeaders Media. "[Marketers] may want to take a more critical look at if they're really supported the way they think they are."

Natalie's Review
Domaine de La Sauveuse Domaine De La Sauveuse Cuvée Carolle Rosé Tempranillo Blend 2008, A.C., Côtes de Provence, Provence, France: Vintages Wine Panel: A long-term organic producer, Domaine de la Sauveuse has also been increasingly incorporating sustainable agriculture and biodynamic ideas into its production techniques. So far, this winery has only received organic certification, but their passion for the other two schools of thought is deeply entrenched. This rosé is filled with strawberry, cherry and citrus aromas and flavors. A terrific sipper. This organic wine contains 12 mg/L of free sulfur. My note: Happiness in a glass! Playful notes of ripe strawberries and raspberries with tangy acidity that makes this a terrific medium-bodied aperitif. Imagine its pale pink tone with summer sunlight piercing the glass, now close your eyes and relax. 117341 13% XD 750 mL $17.95 Score: 89/100. April 11, 2009 Full Review

Could Markets' Equilibrium Sets Be Fractal Attractors?
AbstractThe assumption that markets are positive linear structures moving toward stable fixed-point equilibria is not supproted by empirical investigations.This note reformulates the purest and the simplestof all Walrasian models, i. e.,a pure exchange economy, and shows that even such a simple market moves toward a compact time-invariant set of prices due to the constant destruction and creation of excess demands under the impulsion of self-interested agents with strong monotone preferences. Fractal attractors better explain continuous market fluctuations, 'black swans', and the flawed risk assessments of market risks of the financial engineers of Wall Street.

Bamburgh Castle
Bamburgh Castle Review
You'll see Bamburgh Castle long before you reach it: a solid, weatherbeaten clifftop fortress that dominates the coastal view for miles around. A fortification of some kind has stood here since the 6th century, but the Norman castle was damaged during the 15th century and the central tower is all that remains intact. Much of the structure—the home of the Armstrong family since 1894—was restored during the 18th and 19th centuries. The interior is mostly late Victorian (most impressively, the Great Hall) although a few rooms, such as the small but alarmingly well-stocked armory, have a more authentically medieval feel. The breathtaking view across the North Sea is worth the trip much as anything else; bring a picnic if the weather's good (or order to-go sandwiches at the café).

|Has anyone done this? We have plenty of asparagus for eating and I really like the way it looks when it grows out. So, I was thinking I would start some from seed and put them in various places in my perennial beds for a little ferny interest.
Has anyone tried this before? I realize it takes years for an asparagus seedling to grow large enough to eat but I don't want them for that anyway.

|i have a few bird sown plants over the 5 acres ...
never remember to harvest.. until the thing is 2 feet tall... lol ...
its your garden.. you plant.. whatever your little heart desires.. wherever you little heart desires.. and dam those who think otherwise ...
its not easy using your garden friends to stop flowing water ...
|I don't grow asparagus, but I would think it would be very attractive. Actually, I've been wondering the same thing about rhubarb - if it would be decorative enough for the garden?
|Kevin - I planted a rhubarb plant this year. Its leaves are very nice looking and slightly ruffled and the stems have a nice yellow/pink/red hue to them. It would probably look fine in an ornamental garden setting. Both of my grandmas grew rhubarb for pies and things but they grew them in with their other perennials
As for the asparagus I think it would look great in a perennial setting. I have ornamental fennel seeds I'm going to try next year for the same affect. You could try that, too
|As a kid I always loved the ornamental aspect of my grandfather's asparagus patch. It's such a large plant, though, so it would have to be a good-sized bed.
Here are a couple of shots of my rhubarb which is in a bed of mixed perennials and shrubs and also has my horseradish. I put it there when we first moved since it was far enough away from the house to not be disturbed by the work that house needed and also not take up lead from the soil around the house from old paint. I've left it there because I like the contrast it provides to the other foliage nearby. I usually let it bloom for a bit, since the foamy blossoms are pretty spectacular. After blooming, I cut back the bloom stalks, and I also harvest for cooking. I never take so many that it's visible that leaves are missing.

|That looks amazing! Do you grow rhubarb from seed?
|Those photos are amazing - and beautiful! You've convinced me.
It's been a long time since I've seen rhubarb flowers and you're right. They are spectacular.
I love cooking with rhubarb. IMO there is absolutely nothing like rhubarb pie. Nothing! It's my favorite, but I simply refuse to buy rhubarb at the store because it's so expensive and I didn't grow it because I really don't have any out of the way place to plant it. Now I know it can be a part of the regular flower garden and it will - next spring.

|OK - rhubarb pie? Is it made with strawberries or just rhubarb? I have never tasted anything made with rhubarb that was made with JUST rhubarb. In fact, that is why I have never grown it --- if it is good by itself, I might grow some in my perennial gardens to eat!
|Hmmm... great minds think alike, and all that :-) I am planning to plant rhubarb in the front bed next spring! The only drawback I can see is that it can get unattractive in late summer/early fall as it starts to go dormant. But I love all things rhubarb so it'll be worth it! Currently a neighbour supplies us with rhubarb in spring and Swiss chard in late summer and fall in exchange for the home-made dog cookies we provide for his big (140lb!), beautiful Rottweiller. My favorite rhubarb pie recipe:
Aunt Marge's Rhubarb Pie
Make a single crust pie shell. Fill with sliced rhubarb. (You can microwave the rhubarb for 3-4 minutes first to start it cooking.)
Pour sauce over cut rhubarb in pie shell. Bake in 350F oven for 45 minutes or until rhubarb fully cooked. While the pie is still hot, make meringue and return pie to oven until meringue is golden.
You can mix strawberries with the rhubarb. Some people also like to add raisins to the rhubarb.
|I think I prefer straight, rhubarb pie - no berries, but I have had some good strawberry/rhubarb pie. Here's my mom's as long as we're sharing recipes:
Mom's Pie
Crust for both top and bottom:
Cream together eggs and sugar until light and fluffy
Pour into bottom crust and cover with the top crust
|My rhubarb is a division from our former neighbor and landlord at a previous home. It is far less tart and so needs much less sugar than many types, but I don't know what variety it is. I usually make strawberry rhubarb pie or sometimes crisp which is the same as the pie, but without a bottom crust and in a larger dish.
I haven't found that the leaves look unattractive until they die in the fall when it gets below freezing, at which point they go into the compost heap along with a bunch of other stuff.
Strawberry-Rhubarb Pie
In the bottom of a 9" deep dish pie crust sprinkle:
Every two layers lightly sprinkle fruit with the cinnamon-sugar-flour mixture.
|We grow rhubarb in our backyard and one of the best recipes that I enjoy is rhubarb cobbler made from rhubarb picked fresh from the garden. It is soooo good. I'm going to check out the recipes posted for rhubarb pie as well since my DH loves rhubarb.

5 Responses to "Sea Lions at Anacapa with Bamboo Reef"
I am now cheered up. Thank you.
I just don't know how people can do things like that. All I can see watching that is a 20 foot GREAT WHITE SHARK lurking just below them in the depths ready to rise up at any moment for a "snack".
It's been my (damned scary) experience that when the Landlord shows up, the seals head out at high speed. Surfing glassy-calm seas in an almost totally enveloping fog off of Waddell Creek (just north of Santa Cruz, CA, and just east of Ano Nuevo Island), I noticed that the sea lions frolicking in our midst suddenly high-tailed it for the beach. Granted, I didn't see any sharks, but I figured it best to follow them in.
I've gotta hand it to divers who shot this video–that's hardcore.
Fast, agile animals such as sealions and deer are fast and agile *because* of predators such as Great White Sharks and wolves. The slow and clumsy ones are eaten.
yeah, hanging around sea lions in that part of the ocean (we just had a fatal attack on the coast last week by a great white) is perhaps not such a great idea, although I do appreciate the video.

A Vancouver police officer has been charged with assault in connection with an incident in which a disabled woman was pushed to the sidewalk in the city's Downtown Eastside.
Charged is Const. Taylor Robinson, who's alleged to have knocked Sandy Davidsen to the ground as she walked by Robinson and two other officers on East Hastings Street June 9.
Davidsen, 27, suffers from multiple sclerosis and cerebral palsy.
Robinson reported the incident to his superior later that day, admitting that after the woman went to the sidewalk, neither Robinson nor the other two officers subsequently helped Davidsen to her feet, Vancouver police said in a release Tuesday.
Civil legal actions taken
The incident, which was caught on a security video camera, was investigated by New Westminster police. The police report recommended charges, which Crown counsel filed Tuesday.
Robinson joined the Vancouver police force in March 2009 and has been placed on administrative duties pending the outcome of the charges against him, the police release said.
"The officer involved has also apologized to the woman, expressing regret for his initial action and for not helping her in the aftermath," the release said.
A lawyer for Davidsen has filed a complaint with the B.C. Human Rights Tribunal and has filed a lawsuit against Robinson in provincial small claims court, claiming $25,000 in damages.

Pagans and the (Zombie) Apocalypse
Chastity vs Hedonism
A few weeks ago (months maybe?) a reader asked me via Facebook if I'd write about chastity vs hedonism. Sure, I said. I like reader prompts...Chastity is related to abstaining from sexual activities of all kinds. Hedonism implies a rampant indulgence in all lustful desires. Hedonism conjures up images of luxurious excesses of all kinds of fleshly pleasures, not just sexual ones. I think the real issue in these words is what role does austerity play in our lives? Should it have one? If so, … [Read more...]
Being Called While Young
"What I never saw talked about, in books, in blogs, was what it means to be called as a young person. See, I thought it was Grand, it was Good. I was called young, that meant I could do a lot! But what it really meant was that I gave up dreams that everyone dreams. I'd replaced them with visions of holy fire and new myths."Aine Llewellyn, former Patheos blogger, wrote this on her Facebook page recently. Aine is hard at work developing a new tradition, the Otherfaith. I admire her work a … [Read more...]
A Polytheist Twist on Narrative Theology
Narrative theology (also known as postliberal theology, which I just found out) is a recent theological development where the overarching narrative of the Christian story takes on central importance, over/against ideas of systematic theology. One of its main points is that individuals are part of a community and that community's history, which is the focus of Christian narrative theology. I like the idea of being part of a story that is bigger than myself. That seems to take into account the … [Read more...]
Community Kali
Thanks to a silly Facebook meme I've been humming '90s Christian music in my head all week. I'm not gonna lie: I owned Steven Curtis Chapman and Michael W Smith cds, but my favorites were Iona and Rich Mullins. I still like those last two.I think the last two spoke to me - speak to me still - because they weren't the standard popular music of day (Mullins played the hammer dulcimer!) and the lyrics were sometimes ambiguous, sometimes about the personal struggle to even feel the intimacy of … [Read more...]
Monism – Your Mileage May Vary
In my corner of the internet there is some discussion (and some insulting, some deliberately not listening, and some jumping to conclusions) about monism and polytheism. Here are my two cents.Monism is the idea that there is one unifying source. It is NOT the same as monotheism. Monotheism is the idea that there is one god and one god only. Almost all monotheists are monists, but not all monists are monotheists. Can polytheists be monists? Yes, yes they can. How important are such … [Read more...]
On Dietrich Bonhoeffer's Cost of Discipleship: the Cost of Being a Woman and Other
[This was written when I was revisiting Christianity at the beginning of 2012. I quite like this piece of writing.]Revisiting things that once held meaning for me is both tedious and informative. For example, Dietrich Bonhoeffer's The Cost of Discipleship. I studied Bonhoeffer in college. I wrote my senior history thesis on him. And I barely remember anything about him, other than: influential Lutheran German pastor, who resisted the Nazi co-option of the German church and joined the r … [Read more...]

On-tap 9/27/09 at Doherty's East Ave Irish Pub in Pawtucket, RI, served in a tulip glass.
A: The beer is a deep reddish brown color, with a thin off-white head that fades quickly and leaves a thick lace on the glass.
S: The aroma is of pumpkin, spices, caramelized malts and a touch of hops.
T: The taste starts out sweet with flavors of pumpkin, caramel and spices. There's a mild hops presence and the alcohol becomes more prevalent in the taste as you continue to drink it. The malt character is hearty. The after-taste is slightly sweet.
M: Smooth and crisp, medium body, medium carbonation, finish is slightly sticky.
D: Tasty, goes down easily, not too filling, strong kick, good representation of style, this is a nice stronger pumpkin beer that is worth drinking for a little while if you're in the mood for the style.

22oz brown foiled topped bomber with no freshness date.
Clear orange amber hue, lacing a great ... sticks all the way down. Smells of pumpkin pie with some alcohol drizzled on it, very pleasing as that is what I was hoping for. Pumpkin pie in a bottle, not over spiced and all the spices are there rather than one being too much forward. Sweetness up front, toasted malt in the back. Alcohol is mellow and compliments / warms. Modest hopping ends up just helping to balance. Spicy finish that stays a tad sweet.
More proof that pumpkin ales need to be massive, or at least that is what I prefer. Good drinking for the holiday or I would even think it is possible to cellar a bottle and perhaps cook with it as well.

Pours an effervescent amber/orange with 2 fingers of cream colored head. Below average head retention & lacing, nice viscosity to this, stays effervescent
S: Squashyness, leafy hops, all-spice
T: Pumpkin pie spices, a touch of squashyness & a bit of woody hops, plus a kiss of booze up front. All-spice, nutmeg, leafy hops & dryness as this warms, a touch of cinnamon & caramel sweetness as well. Finishes dry with cinnamon, nutmeg, & a touch of boozey pumpkin
MF: Medium bodied, firm carbonation, a little warming; firmed up a bit as this warmed, a little sticky too
Drinks easy for the style & ABV. Not a big fan of this style or brewery; but this beer is worthy & I would buy this again. Would like to try a new bottle & one with a bout a year; my guess is this best drank within 3 months of release, but you never know...

Oh Shipyard, this is yet another completely fucking disgusting pumpkin beer from you. DIACETYL BOMB! Back to brewing school with you.
Beer is orange and has a thin white head of small bubbles, minimal lacing moderate carbonation. Looks good.
Aroma is mildly spicy and has a buttery component to it. Oh no.
Beer is silky creamy butterscotchy with a horrible pumpkin sour bitterness at the back end. Its like eating the skin off the pumpkin after its dipped in fake butter. Never again.

Tried this beer a while back during the Autumn, but never reviewed it and didn't realize it until now. So here comes a late Pumpkin beer review. It will also help get the corked flavor out of my mouth from the last beer.
A: A decent 1 finger head with some juicy looking bubbles. A very clear toasty bright orange color with hints of gold and lots of mini bubbles rising throughout. The head fades quickly.
N: Hmmm, a slightly sweet toasted pumpkin aroma. Lots of spices, like cinnamon, nutmeg, and lots of pie crust. It has the aroma of a pumpkin and mince meat pie baked together. I also get this interesting aroma that reminds me of the little cinammon rolls my mother used to make with the leftover crust after making a pie. A slightly bready aroma adds the finishing touch. The pumpkin is definitely present, but not very strong as the spices seem to over power it a bit. However, the spices don't seem like the hot inedible spices I get out of many of these beers, its a little different.
T: Hmm, the spices seem to get hotter and closer towards inedible on the palate. The pumpkin comes out stronger as well. A slightly sweet pumpkin pie filling taste is surrounded by bready crust like taste, and lots of spice. Cinnamon I think is the key word, with some nutmeg and other spices. It gets a little hot in the taste and seems to add a bit of alcohol taste and warmth. Aside from the over hot spices in the taste, its pretty good, if you like pumpkin pie with cinnamon.
M: Pretty good body, and decent carbonation, with alcohol warmth.
F: Pretty spicey and hot. A slight burn and sting from alcohol and spices. The warmth of the alcohol is nice, and it helps through the chili windy autumn. A little lingering syrupy sweetness seems to stick around for a bit. The spice taste fades very quickly. Then it dries right off, quite a bit. It's almost pulling the water out of my tongue pores.

this is one of the best pumpkin beers out there in my opinion. in a total juxtaposition to their pumpkin head this beer features the squash over the spice, and is one of my favorites right now. it pours a fairly dense looking orange color, more spring than fall in hue, with a two inch white head on top, almost nitro in appearance. smells like fresh pumpkins, maybe stewed pumpkin, and with a spice thats a product ofn the yeast, not a product of too much nutmeg in the brew kettle. the flavor is equally chill on the spice front, but pungent on the earthy vegetable front. some notes of vanilla and candy in there too, but this isnt a sweet beer. the mouthfeel is huge, full bodied, but relatively easy drinking. i think its maybe not so easy drinking, just so interesting and delicious that i keep putting these down. the alcohol is present, but its complementary to whats going on, not a distraction. this a an absolutely essential beer to try this fall. i might go get another one right now actually.

The beer pours a dark amber color with a thick frothy white head thadecently fades to lacing. The aroma is decent. It has a nice light pumpkin scent along with nutmeg and some Munich malt sweetness. The taste is decent as well. It has a really nice pumpkin character to it and is well spiced. It's a bit syrupy which takes away from the drinkability. The mouthfeel is decent. It is a full bodied beer with adequate carbonation. This is a pretty good beer. I like the fact that Shipyard is making some big beer finally. This one's not bad.

Poured from a bottle into a Chimay goblet.
Appearance: Pours a clear orangish amber color with just under a finger of off white head that fades to a ring around the edge of the glass.
Smell: Mild sweet malt, hints of fruit, perhaps grape. There is a smell in the background that reminds me of white wine. A bit weird.
Taste: There is a tiny bit of pumpkin flavor here, but not very much. There is some malt and the white wine tartness that was in the smell. The finish is mildly hoppy and tart.
Mouthfeel: Medium body with a high amount of smooth carbonation. The finish is mildly slick.
Overall: This is a weird beer in general. There is a tartness that clashes with everything else. Not really picking up much pumpkin or spice. I wouldn't have another.

Poured from a 22 oz. bottle into my Bell's tulip. Got to try this up in Vermont last August and really liked it, glad to see it on the shelves in NoVa.
a - Pours a somewhat transparent medium orange color with one inch of off white head and moderate carbonation evident. No head retention and a little bit of lacing left on the glass.
s - Smells of cinnamon, bready malts, nutmeg, and light pumpkin. Cinnamon is very strong.
t - Tastes of cinnamon, nutmeg, spices, light pumkin, and bready malts. Again, the cinnamon is very strong, as are the spices.
m - Medium body and moderate carbonation. Pretty easy to drink.
o - Overall an above average pumpkin ale, but it didn't live up to my memory of it. Lots of spices and cinnamon and not at much pumpkin as I would have liked. Would have it again but not my favorite.

22 oz. bomber,
A: Pours a clear orange with a firm head with great retention especially for a pumpkin ale. No real lace.
S: Pumpkin pie and some allspice though lighter than in most pumpkin beers, definite notes of Munich malt and booze.
T: This is a big boy. Ethanol hits you big at the beginning of this beer, hot but dies down a bit as it warms possibly because the other flavours are coming out. On the backswing there are good pumpkin and pie crust, some nutmeg and fall spice as to be expected. Not really well balanced overall, but the end of the bomber finished a lot better than the beginning.
M: Full-bodied, solvent-like ethanol character for sure with a bit of a burn going down, as I said before, this beer does not hide its 9%. Sweetish aftertaste, pretty clean overall, the structure is good.
D: This is really a mixed bag, there are good parts and bad parts. This would make a good cool weather warmer, makes you feel good inside, but I'd have someone to split the bottle with.

Appearance: pours a slightly hazy orange color with a big 3" head that slowly recedes. Some mild lacing develops.
Smell: cinnamon and nitmeg are up front, and some caramel sweentess is a bit softer on the nose.
Taste: caramel, cinnamon, allspice, and nutmeg are are most prominent. Bitterness is moderate and alcohol tones are soft but warming. Some buttery textures arrive late during the swallow. There is a bit of a hidden earthy tone here too.
Mouthfeel: medium-heavy in body. Lightly crisp to start, smooth and a hint of dryness arrives late.
Drinkability: this beer went down fairly quickly depsite the higher alcohol levels. Overall a tasty beer from Shipyard.

Pours a burnished deep golden bronze colour. Head is finely bubbled, staying as a snow of filmy white above the main event, and leaving a cascade of thick, meringuey lacing. Actually, it looks quite phenomenal. The colour is orange enough to evoke the pumpkin, and the head is frothy enough to evoke the delicious lightly fluffed filling of the pie. Looks great.
Nose is really nicely balanced between sweet pumpkin and burnt brown sugar, and the spicy cinnamon and nutmeg characters which signify the dessert properties of the beer's genesis. Crusty pastry notes come through as well, leaving this a round "hell yes" for pumpkin pie deliciousness. Spot on.
Taste is also pretty damn good, although there's a surprisingly sharp booze character on the back, which slices through the other characters. Otherwise, it genuinely has that very pleasant pumpkin/sugar sweetness mixed with the lilting pie spice bite; particularly nutmeg on the palate. Quite biting, and I like that: the spice makes itself felt; and the basis is such a lovely sweet pumpkin deepness that it works well - it needs the spice to cut through a little. Apart from the overzealous booze note, it's an extremely good palate. Feel is smooth and rich. Very much suits the style.
This is a really great pumpkin ale. It really conveys to me all the characters I feel should be there - the pie spice, the burnt sugar sweetness, even the slightly dry pastry character. I feel like this is the pumpkin ale which sums up the style for me. It's very good indeed. I'm not sure I've had a better example. Well recommended.

As the duty CANtrarian and having been to several "Christmas In July" events in the past few weeks, it occurs to me to embrace my two favorite holidays, Hallowe'en and Thanksgiving and bump Christmas!
From the bottle: "SMASHED PUMPKIN is a big-bodied beer with a light coppery orange color and pleasing aroma of pumpkin and nutmeg. The OG and final Alc./Vol. provide the structure and body. Pale Ale, Wheat and Light Munich Malts combine with the natural tannin in pumpkin and the delicate spiciness of Willamette and Hallertau Hops to balance the sweetness of the fruit. To fully enjoy all the flavours, this ale is best drunk at 55 degrees Farenheit. Smashed Pumpkin pairs well with sharp cheeses, nuts, lamb, hearty stews and desserts like flan or pumpkin pie. Chefs find this an excellent beer to cook with in dishes such as braised short ribs. Try adding a little Shipyard Blue Fin Stout to Smashed Pumpkin for a fall warmer."
I went with a more delicate pour than usual as I was unsure as to the amount of lees present. I got a finger of tawny head that fell pretty quickly. Color was a coppery orangish-amber with NE-quality clarity and lots of CO2 bubbles. BUPGOO! Nose had taken on a clove-tobacco quality in the interim and I began to debate donning a black beret for the occasion. Mouthfeel was thick and full on the tongue and combined with the clove/nutmeg/allspice flavors, it was like drinking liquid pumpkin pie! I must remember to get some more this year. I was worried that it had gone over like many of the pumpkin ales in my cellar, but this was phenomenal! Finish was (literally) breathtaking with regard to its spiciness. I may carve a pumpkin tonight in this beer's honor, providing I can find such a gourd. Hauntingly ghoulicious. Say, is that a black cat at my back door? Here, kitty, kitty ...

A: Pours a very slightly hazy copper to reddish brown in color with some light to moderate amounts of visible carbonation. The beer has a two finger tall creamy beige head that slowly reduces to a small patch of large bubbles, a thin film covering the entire surface of the beer, and a thick ring at the edges of the glass. Moderate amounts of lacing are observed.
S: Moderate to strong aromas of pumpkin and pumpkin pie spices (nutmeg, cinnamon, ginger, and allspice) with some light hints of sweetness. Also, there is a very light presence of alcohol in the smell.
T: There are some light notes of sweetness upfront in this beer (almost like a cream soda sweetness). There are moderate flavors of pumpkin and pumpkin pie spices - nutmeg, cinnamon, ginger, allspice, and vanilla.
M: Medium bodied with moderate amounts of carbonation. Light amounts of alcohol warming in the finish.
O: Enjoyable with very good pumpkin and pumpkin pie spices which are in good balance with one another. Easy to drink because the beer is not overly sweet and the alcohol is pretty well hidden in the taste - though at 9% ABV this is very much a sipping beer.

Danny and Brandon are standing in the dinning room making out. They kiss and fondle each other getting down to just their jeans. Brandon slowly lowers Danny's pants, holding his cock in his hand he jerks it off until he can reach it with his warm mouth. Pulling on his own pud he deep throats Danny's entire shaft using his tongue and lips to apply pressure, making him moan and groan. Returning the favor Danny sits down to get a good angle when he sucks Brandon's cock into his mouth. Finally Danny bends over to get rammed from behind bringing Brandon to the edge of orgasm.

REUNION — Officials from Platte Valley Medical Center, the city of Commerce City and BVB General Contractors participated in a groundbreaking ceremony March 19 to kick off construction for Platte Valley Medical Center's planed medical facility in Reunion.
The facility, which will be in the Reunion Marketplace at the corner of 104th Avenue and Chambers Road, is planned as an 11,800-square-foot building that will hold four medical practices.
CEO John Hicks said those practices would include family practice, obstetrics and gynecology, pediatrics and internal medicine and that residents would have access to them "just moments away from their homes."
Commerce City Mayor Sean Ford said the new facility is going to be a key piece of the community for residents who need medical service. He said over the past decade, Commerce City has been among the fastest growing cities in the nation, and with the passage of Issue 2K in last November's elections, Tower Road will become a four-lane road, state Highway 2 will become a four-lane road from 72nd Avenue to Interstate 75, three city parks will be built along with a new recreation center.
"It all starts tying together. We're creating a great, beautiful community," he said. "So thank you on behalf of the city council and on behalf of the residents of Commerce City, we want to welcome Platte Valley Medical Center to our community. We think it will be a great addition and we need to make sure we support them being here."
BVB General Contractors CEO James Vigesaa said it's a pleasure to be able to build the medical office in Reunion.
"BVB and Platte Valley hospital have worked together on many other projects and it's great to see this continuing on this project," he said. "Don't blink because the building is going to appear and we're going to be coming back here for a ribbon cutting in the fall."

Ailsa Craig, island home to curling stones, seeks buyer
Nov 25, 2013, 3:11 PM EDT
As curling has gained Olympic popularity, so has the tale of the origin of its 44-pound stones.
Every four years, some columnist, somewhere, mentions the uninhabited volcanic Scottish isle of Ailsa Craig and its unique blue hone granite. A majority of the world's curling stones come from Ailsa Craig.
Well, now that island can be yours for a reported $2.4 million. It's actually a steal. The original listed price for the 220 acres was $4 million.
Aisla Craig was first put up for sale two years ago, but the news gained steam with a New York Times story Sunday.
"It's going to go out of the family," the owner, Scottish peer Archibald Angus Charles Kennedy, the 8th Marquess of Ailsa, told the newspaper. "But I think of it this way: It's not going anywhere. It's always going to be there, and it really doesn't matter who owns it."

Senator Heitkamp's brought a guest to the State of the Union Speech. His name is Eric Marts, a wounded veteran who hosts a radio show in Fargo. Marts says he was honored to attend and listen to the President speak. He says the most touching part of the night was when the audience gave a standing ovation to another wounded veteran, Sergeant 1st Class Cory Remsburg.
"We had a lot in common that was very touching. I wish that I could have found my way through the crowd to be able to give him a big hug, and let him know that I've got his back side and welcome home," says veteran Eric Martseteran.
He's staying in D.C. until Saturday and plans to meet with officials to help advance veteran issues.
Evangelist Franklin Graham prayed on a sidewalk outside the Pentagon Thursday after his invitation to a prayer service inside was withdrawn because of comments that insulted people of other religions. More>>
