General Assembly
27 February 2012
Human Rights Council
Working Group on Arbitrary Detention
Opinions adopted by the Working Group on Arbitrary Detention at its sixtieth session, 2–6 May 2011
No. 15/2011 (China)
Communication addressed to the Government on 3 February 2011
Concerning: Liu Xiaobo
The State is not a party to the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights.
1. The Working Group on Arbitrary Detention was established in resolution 1991/42 of the former Commission on Human Rights. The mandate of the Working Group was clarified and extended in Commission resolution 1997/50. The Human Rights Council assumed the mandate in its decision 2006/102. The mandate was extended for a further three-year period in Council resolution 15/18 of 30 September 2010.
2. The Working Group forwarded a communication to the Government on 3 February 2011 and received a reply on 13 April 2011. The Working Group welcomes the cooperation of the Government.
3. The Working Group regards deprivation of liberty as arbitrary in the following cases:
(a) When it is clearly impossible to invoke any legal basis justifying the deprivation of liberty (as when a person is kept in detention after the completion of his sentence or despite an amnesty law applicable to him) (category I);
(b) When the deprivation of liberty results from the exercise of the rights or freedoms guaranteed by articles 7, 13, 14, 18, 19, 20 and 21 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and, insofar as States parties are concerned, by articles 12, 18, 19, 21, 22, 25, 26 and 27 of the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights (category II);
(c) When the total or partial non-observance of the international norms relating to the right to a fair trial, established in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and in the relevant international instruments accepted by the States concerned, is of such gravity as to give the deprivation of liberty an arbitrary character (category III);
(d) When asylum-seekers, immigrants or refugees are subjected to prolonged administrative custody without the possibility of administrative or judicial review or remedy (category IV);
(e) When the deprivation of liberty constitutes a violation of international law for reasons of discrimination based on birth; national, ethnic or social origin; language; religion; economic condition; political or other opinion; gender; sexual orientation; disability or other status, and which aims towards or can result in ignoring the equality of human rights (category V).
4. The case concerns Liu Xiaobo. The Working Group has at the same time considered the case of Liu Xia, who is married to Liu Xiaobo (see opinion No. 16/2011 adopted on 5 May 2011).
5. The Working Group further points out that this is only one of several opinions in which it has been alleged that China is in violation of its international human rights obligations (see opinions No. 26/2010 and No. 29/2010). The Working Group reminds China of its duties to comply with international human rights obligations not to detain arbitrarily, to release persons who are arbitrarily detained, and to provide compensation to them. The duty to comply with international human rights rests not only on the Government but on all officials, including judges, police and security officers, and prison officers with relevant responsibilities. No person can contribute to human rights violations.
6. The United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights, expressing concern for the fate of human rights defenders in China, has on several occasions mentioned Liu Xiaobo, and called for his release.
7. After Liu Xiaobo was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize, his case was the subject of a press release by the Chairperson of this Working Group, together with the Special Rapporteur on the promotion and protection of the right to freedom of opinion and expression, the Special Rapporteur on the independence of judges and lawyers, and the Special Rapporteur on the situation of human rights defenders, on 11 October 2010. The Working Group now turns to the merits of the case, following submissions from the source and the Government's reply.
Communication from the source
8. The case summarized hereinafter was reported by the source to the Working Group on Arbitrary Detention as follows: Liu Xiaobo, a citizen of China, born 28 December 1955, is a human rights activist and literary scholar. He is usually resident in Qixian in Beijing.
9. He was arrested on 8 December 2008 at his home by police officers from the Beijing Public Security Bureau. The police officers did not state reasons for his arrest, providing an arrest warrant which did not indicate any specific offence. The police officers searched the home of Liu Xiaobo and seized computers and other materials.
10. Liu Xiaobo was held incommunicado from 8 December 2008 to 31 December 2008, and was denied access to his family and legal counsel. He had two visits by his spouse at the Xiaotangshan Conference Centre after 31 December 2008, but was otherwise held in solitary confinement until 23 June 2009.
11. On 23 June 2009, Liu Xiaobo was formally arrested on charges of inciting subversion of state power. He was detained at the Beijing No. 1 Detention Centre until 24 May 2010, when he was moved to Jinzhou Prison in Liaoning Province, where he remains in detention.
12. On 10 December 2010, the Beijing Municipal People's Procuratorate Branch No. 1 submitted the indictment against Liu Xiaobo. The prosecution asserted that Liu Xiaobo had disregarded state laws and, by means of rumour mongering and slander, incited subversion of state power and the overthrow of the socialist system in violation of article 105(2) of the Criminal Law of the People's Republic of China. The source alleges that these charges were based on Liu Xiaobo's participation in "Charter 08" and six articles he has published. The source further informs the Working Group that "Charter 08" is a document drafted by a number of intellectuals, including Liu Xiaobo, calling for political reform in China.
13. On 23 December 2009, Liu Xiaobo was prosecuted before the Beijing Municipal No. 1 Intermediate People's Court. The source alleged that Chinese authorities significantly limited access to the proceeding; journalists, foreign diplomatic representatives, and all but two members of Liu Xiaobo's family were prevented from entering the courthouse for the trial. The police prevented Liu Xia, the spouse of Liu Xiaobo, from leaving her home and attending the trial. The proceedings lasted for two hours, and the court imposed a time limit of 14 minutes for Liu Xiaobo's defence.
14. On 25 December 2009, Liu Xiaobo was convicted for inciting subversion of state power, and sentenced to 11 years' imprisonment and 2 years' loss of political rights. On 9 February 2010, the Beijing Municipal High People's Court rejected the appeal.
Response from the Government
15. The Government's reply was received on 13 April 2011. It states that citizens of China enjoy the right to freedom of speech, including the right to criticize the government. The Government notes that freedom of speech is limited by articles 51 and 54 of the Constitution of the People's Republic of China, in line with article 19, paragraph 3, of the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights. The Government argues that the justifications for limitations on the right to freedom of expression contained in article 19, paragraph 3, of the Covenant are present in this case.
16. The Government states that China is a nation respecting the rule of law. Liu Xiaobo was convicted according to the criminal code offences for inciting subversion of state power, and not for the promotion or protection of human rights. The courts strictly followed domestic criminal procedural law, allowing Liu Xiaobo and his lawyers to present a defence with Liu Xiaobo's family members present at the hearing.
Comments from the source
17. The source claims that Liu Xiaobo's detention is a direct result of his writings, including the "Charter 08" initiative, containing peaceful calls for democratic reform and the protection of human rights in China.
18. The indictment and verdict cite Liu Xiaobo's participation in the production of these materials as the basis for his prosecution. The Government's position that it prosecuted Liu Xiaobo under a criminal charge does not change that the core charges against him directly relate to his exercise of the fundamental right to freedom of expression.
19. Article 9 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights prohibits arbitrary arrest and detention, declaring that "no one shall be subjected to arbitrary arrest, detention or exile".
20. The prohibition of arbitrary detention is customary international law, authoritatively recognized as a peremptory norm of international law or jus cogens; see, inter alia, the established practice of the United Nations as expressed by the Human Rights Committee in its general comment No. 29 (2001) on states of emergency (CCPR/C/21/Rev.1/Add.11, 31 August 2001, para. 11), which this Working Group follows in its opinions. Of assistance is the judgment of the International Court of Justice in Ahmadou Sadio Diallo (Republic of Guinea v. Democratic Republic of the Congo) of 30 November 2010 and in particular the discussions by Judge Cançado Trindade on arbitrariness in customary international law,* with which the Working Group agrees. The International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights, other treaties and conventions, and the jurisprudence of the United Nations and other treaty bodies are important sources in determining the extent of what constitutes arbitrary detention in customary international law. The constant jurisprudence of the rulings contained in the opinions of this Working Group, and of the other United Nations special procedure mandate holders, dealing with full range of human rights treaties and customary international law, is yet another source.
21. The Working Group will first address the issues relating to the pretrial detention of Liu Xiaobo. The starting point is the requirements that follow from article 9 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights (see the 2009 annual report of the Working Group, A/HRC/13/30, 15 January 2010, para. 61). Liu Xiaobo was not informed, at the time of arrest, of the reasons for his arrest or promptly informed of any charges against him. He was not brought promptly before a judge. He was held incommunicado for an extended period and not granted access to legal counsel. The pretrial detention of Liu Xiaobo constitutes a clear violation of article 9.
22. The Working Group will now turn to the trial and sentencing of Liu Xiaobo. The Government states that citizens of China enjoy the right to freedom of speech, including the right to criticize the government. The Government notes that freedom of speech is limited by articles 51 and 54 of the Constitution of the People's Republic of China, and article 19, paragraph 3, of the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights. Article 51 of the Constitution of the People's Republic of China provides that "the exercise by citizens of the People's Republic of China of their freedoms and rights may not infringe upon the interests of the state, of society and of the collective, or upon the lawful freedoms and rights of other citizens". Article 54 of the Constitution of the People's Republic of China provides that "it is the duty of citizens of the citizens of the People's Republic of China to safeguard the security, honour and interest of the motherland; they must not commit acts detrimental to the security, honour and interests of the motherland". Article 19, paragraph 3, of the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights provides that "the exercise of the rights provided for in paragraph 2 of this article carries with it special duties and responsibilities. It may therefore be subject to certain restrictions, but these shall only be such as are provided by law and are necessary: (a) for respect of the rights and reputations of others; (b) for the protection of national security or of public order (ordre public), or of public health or morals". The Government's position is that the limitations on the right to freedom of expression contained in article 19, paragraph 3, of the Covenant apply in this case.
23. The starting point for the Working Group is the requirements that follow from articles 9 and 10 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. The total or partial non- observance of the relevant international standards contained in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights relating to the right to a fair trial can be of such gravity so as to confer on the deprivation of liberty, of whatever kind, an arbitrary character. The trial was organized in a way which constitutes a breach of fairness. Despite the difficult balancing issues that are involved in free-speech cases, Liu Xiaobo's defence was limited to 14 minutes. His detention thus falls within category III of the categories applicable to the cases submitted to the Working Group.
24. A detention is also arbitrary if it is the result of a judgment or sentence for the exercise of the rights and freedoms of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights.
25. Article 19 of the Universal Declaration provides that "everyone has the right to freedom of opinion and expression; this right includes freedom to hold opinions without interference and to seek, receive and impart information and ideas through any media and regardless of frontiers".
26. Restrictions on the right to political free speech are strongly circumscribed. The Government has not shown in this case a justification for the interference with Liu Xiaobo's political free speech. The requirement of proportionality that applies to such restrictions is not satisfied by the reasons provided by the Government. His detention also falls within category II of the categories applicable to the cases submitted to the Working Group.
27. Customary international law provides for an enforceable right of compensation. The Working Group has in its jurisprudence continued to develop, based on general principles, the right to a remedy, which primarily is a right to immediate release and to compensation. In this case, Liu Xiaobo is to be released immediately. He also has a claim to compensation. The reasons that may be given for his detention cannot be used against a claim for compensation.
28. In the light of the foregoing, the Working Group renders the following opinion:
The deprivation of liberty of Liu Xiaobo, being in contravention to articles 9, 10 and 19 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, is arbitrary, and falls within categories II and III of the categories applicable to the cases submitted to the Working Group.
29. Consequent upon the opinion rendered, the Working Group requests the Government to take the necessary steps to remedy the situation, which include the immediate release of and adequate reparation to Liu Xiaobo.
30. The Working Group would like to take this opportunity to invite the Government of China to ratify the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights.

Kuoni reinforces position as premium global travel brand
By Alex Brownsell, marketingmagazine.co.uk, Tuesday, 03 February 2009 01:00PM
LONDON - Luxury travel brand Kuoni has announced plans for its first global marketing campaign.
The activity is part of plans to modernise the tour operator's branding and ensure a consistent appearance in its marketing. The forthcoming campaign will highlight Kuoni's bespoke, premium product offers and services.
However, in a statement to the stock market, the Swiss company said it was looking to cut jobs to lower its costs in an effort to combat an anticipated drop in bookings due to the poor economic climate.
The global campaign follows a major UK rebrand by Oliver & Graimes early last year, which was launched at the London Fashion Show.

Shown above is a setup that is not uncommon deployment of a production SOA setup. Let's summarize briefly what each server does:
- An ESB cluster fronts all the traffic and does some content based routing (CBR).
- Internal and external app server clusters host apps that serve different audiences.
- A Data Services Server cluster exposes Database operations as a service.
- A BPS cluster coordinates a bunch of processes between the ESB, one App server cluster and the DSS cluster.
Hard to digest? Fear not. It's a complicated system that would serve a lot of complex requirements while enhancing re-use, interoperability and all other good things SOA brings.
Now, in this kind of system whether it's SOA enabled or not, there lies a tremendous amount of data. And No, they are not stored as files. They are transferred between your servers and systems. Tons and tons of valuable data are going through your system everyday. What if you could excavate this treasure of data and make use of all the hidden gems to derive business intelligence?
The answer to this can be achieved through Business Activity Monitoring (BAM-ing). It would involve the process of aggregating, analyzing and presenting data. SOA and BAM was always a love story. As system functions were exposed as services, monitoring these services meant you were able to monitor the whole system. Most of the time, if the system architects were smart, they used open standards, that made plugging and monitoring systems even easier.
But even with BAM, it was impossible to capture every message and every request that passed through the server. The data growth alone would be tremendous for a fairly active deployment. So, here we have a Big Data problem, but it is not a typical one. A big data problem that concerns live data. So to actually fully monitor all the data that passes through your system you need a BAM solution that is Big Data ready. In other words, to make full sense of the data and derive intelligence out of the data that passes through modern systems, we need a Business Activity Monitor that is Big Data ready.
Now, a system architect has to worry about BAM, SOA and Big Data as they are essentially interwined. A solution that delivers anything less, is well short of a visionary.
Don't forget to share!

Big Data Basics
An Introduction to Big Data and How It Is Changing Business
Amazingly, 90% of the data in the world today has been created only in the last two years. With the increase of mobile devices, social media networks, and the sharing of digital photos and videos, we are continuing to grow the world's data at an astounding pace. However, big data is more than just the data itself. It is a combination of factors that require a new way of collecting, analyzing, visualizing, and sharing data. These factors are forcing software companies to re-think the ways that they manage and offer their data, from new insights to completely new revenue streams.

Campus Resources at Platt College - Los Angeles:
My complaint with this school is that they put all the money they earn into the admissions department so you have the appearance that it's state of the art. Most of the rooms are old and run down, old chairs and fold up plastic tables and old computers. One would think that at $45000 for tuition that they would be able to do something other than lining their pockets with our money.
Campus Resources at Platt College - Los Angeles:
The computer lab is decent, but its so tiny in a school where there is a lot of students there should be more than 10 computers
Campus Resources at Platt College - San Diego:
Everything is in a great range of distance from all the classes, they're not too far from anything. The advisors of the school make sure that us students know where to go when we need to, they make it very clear as to wear classrooms are and centers are on the campus. I feel I know the campus like the back of my hand because of the preciseness of locations of things.

So how has the entire global warming frenzy with all its predictions of dire consequences, become so widely believed, accepted and regarded as a real threat to planet Earth? That is the most amazing part of the story.
To start with global warming has the backing of the United Nations, a major world force. Second, it has the backing of a former Vice President and very popular political figure. Third it has the endorsement of Hollywood, and that's enough for millions. And, fourth, the environmentalists love global warming. It is their tool to combat fossil fuels. So with the environmentalists, the UN, Gore and Hollywood touting Global Warming and predictions of doom and gloom, the media has scrambled with excitement to climb aboard. After all the media loves a crisis. From YK2 to killer bees the media just loves to tell us our lives are threatened. And the media is biased toward liberal, so it's pre-programmed to support Al Gore and UN. CBS, NBC, ABC, CNN, MSNBC, The New York Times, The LA Times, The Washington Post, the Associated Press and here in San Diego The Union Tribune are all constantly promoting the global warming crisis.

According to the NT News in Australia, Kastrinelis was the lead singer for a 12-member company of performers working for Jean Ann Ryan Productions, a Florida-based company. Ryan called Kastrinelis a "great singer" whose death shocked her fellow cast members.
"Everyone here is in a state of disbelief. We have just found out and it is just shocking," she told the Australian news outlet.
She described the young star as outgoing and loved by all.
"She was a ray of sunshine, a life force and a beautiful person," Ryan said.
After graduating from Pentucket Regional High, Kastrinelis attended the University of Hartford where she was a reporter on the student-run television news channel, STN 2, according to the station's Facebook page.
"It is with great sadness that STN2 is able to confirm that former anchor and reporter Jackie Kastrinelis, a member of the Class of 2010, died over the weekend," the station posted on Facebook.
Friends and family posted their condolences on social media as word of the tragedy began circulating.

Anthony and Rose joined me and Shauna (aka Sha-nomenal!) and the Phenomenal Team at Howard Partridge's Inner Circle program in Houston. There, we hosted the FUNomenal Financial Blast. Owners from 21 companies cleaned up their financials, crunched budgeting numbers, determined selling prices and explored the Financial Quick Check report. Super Nerdy Fun! And powerful financial training. I'm still aglow from the experience.
And apparently Sha-nomenal Shauna made a big impact! Cute video! The event was a big hit…and we decided to do it again. This is a winning way to become a powerful Financial Manager. Stay tuned…we'll make an announcement soon!
In the meantime, have you taken The Biz Plan Challenge Home Edition? Financial Clean Up…Profitable Business Planning…we are here to help you succeed! This is one BIG product for a "no brainer" price.

The third time could be the charm for Janet Jackson.
According to reports, the 46-year-old singer is engaged to marry her Qatari billionaire beau, Wissam Al Mana, 37, this spring in his native country.
Jackson's rep did not immediately respond to THR's request for comment on her engagement.
Us Weekly, meanwhile, is reporting that the nuptials are expected to "cost millions," and that Jackson's loved ones will arrive in Qatar via Al Mana's private planes. Wissam is managing director of Al Mana Retail, which represents designer labels like A/X Armani Exchange. He's a shareholder in Saks Fifth Avenue stores in Middle Eastern cities including Dubai.
Al Mana will also be Jackson's Husband No. 3 following her previous marriages to singer James DeBarge and music video director Rene Elizondo. She was previously in a long-term relationship with Jermaine Dupri, from 2002 until 2009.

$80 Million for 6 Weeks for Cable Chief – NYTimes.com
Robert D. Marcus became chief executive of Time Warner Cable at the start of the year. Less than two months later, he agreed to sell the company to its largest rival, Comcast, for $45 billion.
For that work, he will receive nearly $80 million if the deal closes, a severance payment that amounts to more than $1 million a day for the six weeks he ran the company before agreeing to sell.

Mayor Robinson Still Refuses Transparency, Won't Reveal Appointments, Public Appearances - by Robert Norse
Santa Cruz Mayor Lynn Robinson refuses to reveal the history of her meetings with lobbyists, her appointment book, or announcements of her upcoming public appearances. This is not unusual, however contrary to the public interest, as most mayors have done the same (with the exception of former Mayor Don Lane).

Free Enterprise
My town has one cable company. One or two other options exist for high-speed Internet service – some (but not all) locations support DSL through the phone provider.
If you have the money, you can get mobile wireless access or a satellite dish. All these options are built on an enormous infrastructure investment.
Whenever I hear about the net neutrality debate, I feel like it should focus on real situations like my hometown rather than on the superficial tropes that fall so often into our political discourse. Superficiality is a constant companion in politics because it is usually in someone's interest to make difficult questions look easy.

The Cinematheque at the Capitol Theatre
Die Blechtrommel
West Germany | 1979 | Volker Schlöndorff
The Cinematheque returns to the Capitol Theatre to present a newly restored, extended version of the film that won both the Palme d'Or at the 1979 Cannes Film Festival and the Academy Award for Best Foreign Language Film. Filmmaker Volker Schlöndorff has restored 20 minutes of original footage that he was forced to remove 33 years ago to shorten the running time. His director's cut expands the story of Oskar, a precocious German child living in 1920s Germany who decides to stop growing at age three when he witnesses the hypocrisy and stupidity of adult society. Not even Oskar's piercing screams of alarm or frantic beating of a toy drum can halt his countrymen's relentless march toward World War II. This surreal, satirical black comedy (based on the novel by Nobel Prize winner Günter Grass) was initially banned in Ontario and Oklahoma. Now it's a widely admired modern classic.
163 min. Adults only! Subtitles. New Digital Restoration! Special Offsite Event. DCP.
Cleveland premiere. Shown on the big screen at the Capitol Theatre, 1390 W. 65th St. at Detroit Ave. Special admission $10, members & CIA I.D. holders $8, age 25 & under $6 (with proof of age); no Cinematheque passes, twofers, or radio winners and no Cleveland Cinemas passes or discounts. $10 tickets available in advance at www.clevelandcinemas.com.

This beer pours a clear golden-straw color. The head is one inch in height, and recedes slowly into a firm cap of lacing. The aroma is of light caramel, toffee, and hints of darks fruits and butter. The taste has all the subtleties and nuances of the aroma, but they are all a bit stronger. The mouthfeel is appropriately light bodied with lively carbonation. Overall, this is the best American Macro Lager I have had by far. I could easily drink this again.

Ladies and Gentlemen....I have found my White Buffalo.
Been wanting to try this storied label for years and finally saw it while in St. Cloud. Not cheap for a Macro style beer but well worth it. After opening up the 12 pack of bottles the label looked familiar and I remember distributing this when I was in college working at a local beer distributor in the 80's and this at that time was a cheap off brand.
A-I'll call it gold..clear...little head...
S-The smell is different for this style and has almost a banana bread scent ...very sweet and sticky smelling...I like..
T-Pretty sweet for this style...bet the corn bill is high in this one....maybe that is what gives off the sticky sweet aroma.
M-For as sweet and corny as this tastes it is also pretty clean and smooth drinking.
O-This is really sliding down nicely. A nice sweeter style American Adjunct Lager with more flavor than almost all in this style. Totally different animal than Premium which I expected.

If you love lagers and want a good one,look no further than Hauenstein. It literal german translation is "striking rock" and this is a beer which definitely rocks.Its got a cool little mascot too.
Schells doesn't just repackage their Deer Brand (or any other formula) into Hauenstein bottles,this is brewed from the old recipe.I won't go into the subtleties of taste,just know that this is a darn good beer,and is worth seeking out.
If you are in the New Ulm area,find some.You won't be disappointed!

Hauenstein Beer was a throw-away beer when I was in high school.
How things change! This is a fantastic local beer. Now I had it in the returnable bottle, which was excellent...it must be even better on tap. Schell's Brewery brews this on contract
Summertime out on the lake or at the BBQ this beer fills the bill.
Straw colored nice one finger head...this beer has a faint corn taste. The surprise comes with the finish strong and clean w/o any lingering funk. Very drinkable!

Appearance: Pale straw colored body with good carbonation and small light head. What is expected from an AAL; nothing more, nothing less. Nevertheless a good representation of the style's appearance.
Smell: Sweet, semi-corny but mostly that crisp dry smell that is characteristic of the style.
Taste: Slightly sweet up front with a small amount of bitterness towards the end. (this of course is for comparison among all other AAL's tried) Quality malts give way for a very impressive, light beer.
Mouthfeel: Crisp. Probably one of best examples of the definition of refreshing in any beer. Very smooth and clean.
Overall: Since I review to style, I view this beer as a perfect example of the style. It has always been a favorite of mine and I'm definitely privileged to have family in distribution range of this brew. The history alone of this beer and Schells would make anyone interested in a bottle. A truly cherished and hidden gem of MN.

Straw color with a bright white 2 finger head which fades fairly quick, leaving a thin disc of foam on top. The aroma has hops, grain, yeast, and is somewhat sweet.
The beer tastes just like it smells. It is somewhat sweet, with hops, grain, and yeast. Also tastes like there is a light amount of banana flavor. Nice balance from the hop bitterness.
Light bodied with good carbonation. Crisp and easy to drink. Very smooth. I look for this beer in cans or bottles when I visit New Ulm. One of my go to lagers.

According to the bottle it is "The beer with a little character".
The beer pours a pure golden in color with a rapidly disappearing head. The aroma is slightly sweet and floral. The taste is slightly sweet grain with a bitter and dry hop finish. It is well carbonated and crisply refreshing. It is like Old Milwaukee with a strong German lager like hop finish. Alternately it strikes me that if you married Old Style with Budweiser, but added more flavor and realized their full potential, then you would have this. This is a great regional American adjunct lager.

This is a solid local adjunct lager. Nothing outrageously special but in the style it holds its own. I can just picture a farmer from New Ulm tillin' up his land with a can of Hauenstein balancing on his stomach.
It pours a typical fizzy yellow with a diminutive head and zero lacing. About average for the style. Pretty complex nose for an adjunct- some hops come through as well as grain and a touch of citrus goodness. Taste follows suit. Mouthfeel is average.
As a college student this was my go-to brew and I've always really enjoyed it. Great label, good beer- simple and unpretentious. Get some.

local too my area, Shells has been brewing this stuff for ages. It's been quite awhile since I last had one, so a review was due.
A: Straw yellow, pale. Poured a pillowly white, finger high head into my tumbler. Fairly filtered and lots of bubbles that dissipate rather quickly. Small amounts of lacing
S: Yeast is the most pronounced aromatic quality. Somewhat like sourdough bread.
T: Wheat and bread are most prominent. Crisp and somewhat dry.
M: Slightly grainy, although exceptionally smooth. Leaves minute malt residue on tongue.
D: Wonderful. I could easily kick back a few of these, no problem. There motto, "A Beer with a Little Character", is quite suiting considering this beer hits you like a light beer but has a complex character that makes you want more. Great for summertime

Pours a brilliant pale gold (straw) in color, topped with a frothy white head and just a little bit of clingy lace. Fairly good head retention. Carbonation is fairly brisk.
I can see how someone might say the nose is pretty bland here, and I would agree up to a point; there's just a dusting of pale malts and very little hop presence as we would come to define by today's American craft standards. Yet in comparison to others in the style (Pale Lager / Adjunct Lager) Hauenstein is at least par for the course and certainly less-offensive than what I've experienced on occasion from comparable national brands.
Sweetish on the first sip, with a lightly vegetal quality and some fruity (red apple) aromatics. Towards the end of the palate there's an adjunct sweetness (a blend of corn and rice) and more vegetal notes as it begins to warm - almost no bitterness to speak of here. Medium-bodied, a bit fuller-bodied than I expect for this type of beer, and the brisk carbonation adds to the drinkability.
Not a bad beer at all, in fact Hauenstein offers a lot of the same taste and drinkability of Grain Belt Premium but at a lower price. I could see this one having a real appeal to certain folks*, to say nothing of the Generation Y hipsters bellying-up in the dive bars of the Twin Cities. A real treat cold, and straight from the package.
Served chilled, in a Libbey pint.
* The packaging is smart and classic: "The beer with a little character" reads the motto on the 12 pack carton, and it refers to the cartoon mason (miner?) in the emblem atop the can or label. A nice can for collectors.

Interesting bottle from Mothman (thanks Ben). The label looks old school, like I imagine a beer looking in the 50's or 60's. The beer is clear and pale golden colored, thin wet foam, classic lager. The aroma is muted, neutral but leaning towards malts. A hint of bavaria but also a hint of midwestern corn. The taste is also understated malt, not too different from Budweiser if memory serves. Very drinkable as it should be, pretty damn tasty for the style and much appreciated.

A piece of brew from New Ulm in snow country usa. First time I had one out of the box I immediately went back and bought another 12 pack. You know, in case the store burned down and I couldn't get more. $10/12 pack bottles = very affordable. I also picked up a 6-er of Hamms which this beer utterly smokes.
Appearance - sudsy white 1-finger head that fully recedes within a minute or so.
Smell - dark toast. Flowers. Copper and coffee beans. Mildewy grain. Bitterness in the smell. Can really be compared to Leinenkugels Original.
Taste - robust, mild bitterness paired with a light sweetness - unfortunately mixed with sucking on a copper penny. Always refreshing and full of great flavor, though. One of my favorites. Goes down smooth. "Outstanding".
Mouthfeel - carbonated and crisp. Finishes syrupy and bitter, mildly dry. Still a smooth drinker.
Overall it's a pleasant beer on a hot and muggy day or an evening in a cool, cozy house. Anyone who had not tried a Hauenstein owes it to themselves to try it. My friends are now fans of this beer, as am I. I've been able to find this for sale for $10/12 pack, sometimes more in other places. At any decent price you would owe it to yourself to pick a box up. Impressive.
For what it is, it's a good beer. More sophisticated and flavorful than any B/M/C lagers and it's cheaper to boot.

Poured into Bud American Ale pint glass.
Pours 1/2 finger white fizzy head that fades quickly. Color is a clear light straw yellow. No lace either. Nothing to fancy going on so far.
Aroma: Grains, citrus hops, some bananas and cloves. Very interesting for an adjunct lager. It reminds me of a dulled down Schells Hefe. I could be way off here, but I think this is pretty interesting and I dig it.
Taste: Grains come out first, but then I get get the clove and banana flavor as well. The hops are dulled down here but the taste is very unique for an adjunct lager. It definitely tastes like the category, but it has some added flavors to it.
Mouthfeel: Crisp and a little smooth over the palate. Light bodied with a good amount of carbonation. Ends with a sticky grain flavored aftertaste.
Overall, I can see why this adjunct is rated higher than most. I am not being biased in my review, and this beer simply has got a lot more flavor going on with it. It fits the style well, but has a bonus with it. Definitely worth a try if lagers are your thing. Very drinkable.

Huge thanks to bwiechmann for this as an extra. Been wanting to try a good AAL to see whats up with the style.
Pours pale yellow with a huge white head. Leaves lacing down the glass.
Smells like light cereal grains and the lager twang. Its good for the style.
Taste is light with cereal grains. Twang is there but its pretty good. No metallic taste to speak of, which is nice cause the style usually has that.
Mouthfeel is light and highly carbonated. About right for the style.
Drinkability is good, very drinkable, could have a few of these at a time.
Not my favorite, but glad I tried, and enjoyed it.

Hauenstein Beer. The name says it all, beer. That's what this is, classic adjunct lager in all it's, ahem, glory. Pours a clear how the fuck should I know, drank it from the bottle. I'm sure it's clear as a bell and yellow, as it should be. Smells like basic brewers malted barely and corn. Clean. Taste is sweat, corny and lightly bready, again, clean. No hop character to speak of. Look, as far as adjunct laden lager goes, this one is really good.

Pours a fizzy yellow with a thick white head that doesn't leave much lacing. The smell is milled grain, something like mineral alcohol, a little pondwater. The taste has a slight mineral tang, with corny sweetness and a mild hop bitterness. It's fizzy and clean to the palate. A decent beer - would've liked it better, probably, on a hot summer day.

Man, took me long enough to get to this.
Enjoyed the first one so much I had a second.
Aroma is kinda' skunky, in a way quite a few a lagers are such as other Schell's beer and Point beer is. Maybe a little sulfur. It's not horrible or bad, but it masks the malt and hop character. I'm so familiar with it that it's not off-putting.
Looks good with a darker yellow to gold and nearly clear body and firm white head with good stamina.
Adjunct is full on corn flavor. A streak of malt appears and little hops to be found. Enough bittering, but trends towards sweetness more than bitter.
Heavy feel for beer of this style. As one of my drinking partners noted it has a feel like a malt liquor, obviously minus the alcohol. It is quite smooth and the tingling of the carbonation is enjoyable.
This is not a bad beer, if you don't mind a heavy adjunct taste. It has a place and time.

Clear straw color with a small head that quickly vanished leaving little in its wake. Just a few specks of lacing is left down the glass.
Aroma of cereal grains. Bready with a hint of pepper as well.
Clean, pale lager flavor. A little sweet for my taste. What sets this adjunct lager apart is its distinct Noble hop flavor. If it was drier I would compare this to a German lager.
Light body that I wish had a little more carbonation. Otherwise solid.
More hoppy than 95% of adjunct lagers on the market but the sweet malt does not suit my tastes.

Next, we strolled past a long, tall Sally. . . .wait, check that, it was a long, tall wall covered floor to ceiling in prints replicating concert posters and promotions for country artists across the decades. One of them is a poster for performances by Elvis Presley in Jacksonvillle, Florida, Aug. 10-11 (1956, I found out when I got home and ferreted out the poster on the internet; this was just a month before Elvis first appeared on the Ed Sullivan Show).
Tickets to the show cost a budget-busting $1.50. (Yes, that's one dollar and fifty cents.) But you have to figure it was worth it, since besides Elvis, the audience got to see an "All-Star Cast" including The Jordanaires, Phil Maraquin, Frankie Connors, the Blue Moon Boys, "and others."
The Jordanaires are pretty well-known by country and pop music aficionados like me as the long-time back-up vocalists to Elvis, and many other big acts. I find it curious that none of the guys in the group, which shifted personnel over the years, was ever named "Jordan." Or "Aire."
Phil Maraquin is, I think it's safe to say, not so well known, or at least not to me. He was a comedian, whose signature bit was expelling golf balls from his mouth. A newspaper review I discovered online, from the Lakeland Ledger, covering the performance of this same troupe at a show in Lakeland, Florida three days before the Jacksonville show, says the comic "coughed up a million golf balls," no doubt enthralling a theater full of Elvis-loving teens.
Frankie Connors was an Irish tenor, who apparently had an even tougher time connecting with the crowds "while singing at an Elvis concert in Toronto in April, 1957, Connors was booed! By polite Canadians!
That's being pretty stingy, miserly and such-like with the love, but it's topped by that Lakeland Ledger reviewer, who wrote that the concert overall was "of a caliber well worth the $1.50 admission, with the exception of Presley." Doesn't that just take the pake!

From garden to table. I picked every ripe cherry tomato I could find out in the garden today, along with a couple stalks of basil from plants that have grown wild. Which inspired me to try one of those "one pan pasta" meals I've read about. I didn't believe it was as easy as it sounded: an entire meal, made in one pan, under 10 minutes. The closest meal I know how to make, in one pan, under 10 minutes is Ramen Noodles (and that's not exactly a meal to be bragging about making). But this recipe really is as simple as it's name.
One Pan Pasta adapted from Food52
12 ounces linguine
4 1/2 cups water
12 ounces cherry tomatoes, halved
2 small onions, thinly sliced (about 1 cup)
4 garlic cloves, thinly sliced
1/2 tsp red pepper flakes
10 basil leaves, chiffonade, plus extra for garnish
2 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp ground black pepper
parmesan cheese, for serving
METHOD combine first 10 ingredients in a large straight-sided skillet, with the linguine laying flat in the pan. Bring to ingredients a boil over high heat. Boil mixture, turning the pasta frequently with tongs until pasta is al dente and water has nearly evaporated, about 10 minutes. Season to taste with salt and pepper, garnish with extra basil and serve with parmesan.
NOTE the pasta will result a silky, creamy sauce during the boiling method.

Hi Kela!
Now that you're back and setting your mind to it, I am sure that you can do it! I lost 90 lbs (and then gained 8), so I am proof that this works. My advice to you is to try to get as many SparkPoints as you can each day.
If you do this you will be watching your nutrition and exercising (the two most important things to do!). You will also be learning lots of things that will help and you will "meet" lots of people that will support and help you in your journey!
If you have questions about anything just send me a spark message or post on my page and I'll try to help. (I don't always check these posts.)
Best wishes!
God grant me the serenity
to accept the things I cannot change;
courage to change the things I can;
and wisdom to know the difference!
Hi everyone! I've been a member of Sparkpeople for some time now, but never really active. So, hopefully now I can start on my journey to healthy and fit lifestyle, where I don't have to feel bad about myself or my body.. I see my main problem as Emotional Eating, or perhaps also eating caused by anxiety, boredom. I gained a lot of weight when I got pregnant with my first baby and another 10 pounds with the second one, so at this stage I need to loose at least 50 pounds. It's a very hard thing to do, I started the journey so many times, and failed so many times. Maybe because I'm doing it alone, and maybe this is why I want to reach out to you all today. For motivation, to keep things going. So, I'd love to hear more from anyone who wishes to have also some support.

Isabelle and Seirra's experiment showed that on average, the Sparkle brand ripped after 95 coins, the Bounty brand after 129 coins, and the Great Value brand after 248 coins.
Isabelle said she and her partner took turns holding the sheets of paper and placing the coins.
"I like when it ripped," said Seirra.
Both said they were surprised by the experiment's outcome, as they had expected the brand name product to hold up the best.
Both Seirra and Isabelle won a first-place award.
Kramer said that the projects also taught students about communicating with their partners and with others when they had to explain their experiments.
The projects also imparted lessons about perseverance.
"Things don't always work out the way you want them to," Kramer said.
Fifth-grade teacher Mitch Sefton lauded Kramer, Mills and the kids for their efforts and said the fair allowed students to gain valuable lessons and to spend time working on the projects with parents and fellow students.
And, he said, the skills that the projects required — asking questions, setting and meeting deadlines, working hard to accomplish a task — will help the students later in school and beyond.
"Definitely skills that they can use in the future," Sefton said.
