I've had this beer both on tap and bottled. For this review I opened a bottle and poured it into a nice belgian style goblet.
Light Orange in color, with a beautiful white inch and a half of foam that dissipates after about a minute leaving very little lace. Slightly hazey.
Spice and hops on the nose, first flavor impressions result in spice, slight citrus, with a hoppy aftertaste. Warm mouthfeel. Overall leaving your mouth slippery but wanting another drink.
A great beer from Deschutes, a nice belgian style beer with a definate northwest twist.

I had the pleasure of this wonderful beer crossing my path recently. Served cold and poured into a pint glass, this one welcomed the afternoon in yesterday, consumed on 01/01/2009.
The pour was very nice, a light golden amber with a nice clarity to it. Small white head, maybe a half inch gave way quicky to a bare top that was dotted with bubbles of carbonation. Lots of carbonation here on this one as chains of bubbles relentlessly reached the surface.
The aroma was mixed with light grain, some nice touches of light fruit, pears and apricots come to mind. Some light fresh grass like hop notes boucning around in there as well. Very complex I have to say. The taste was superb, honestly one of the best blond ales I have had, and I am not really that big of a fan of the style. Light grains, apples and pears all very prevelant, along with a nice touch of bready like flavor in the mid palate. Prickly carbonation was bouncing around here the entire time. Really giving it a light and bouncy nature. Very sessionable as no hint of alcohol on this one at all.
Overall a very solid beer here, nothing at all would keep me from drinking more then one of these in a day, really very good, simply a solid beer.

When poured, it showed a slightly hazy golden yellow with no foam or lace.
The smell of sweet spices filled the nose with a very pleasant aroma, along with a hint of mild malt.
The taste was like a Belgium Tripel. Golden, malty and rich. What I liked about this Ale was the spicy aroma and a soft, sweet maltiness. Rich and effervescent as a resul of their fermentations.

Super thanks to Adam Wade for bringing over this gem for "bomber night". We are huge fans of Deschutes and both of us were surprised that they had never taken a stab at the Belgian style. Well we are now blessed that they have. This is a stunning beer. Incredible flavors throughout bouncing all around my palate. An absolutely pleasure to imbibe. I'm getting thirsty again just thinking about it. I have spent a significant amount of time over the past two years reviewing IPA's far and wide, but this may be the beer that really drives me down the road to becoming a Belgium connoisseur. Deschutes continues to be one of my top ten favorite breweries.

22 ounce bottle, $3.89 on sale at Fred Meyer, Anchorage (Seward Hwy & N. Lights) Alaska.
Appearance: Deep golden, hints of orange hue. Dense, slightly rocky off-white head. Leaves significant, thick lacing.
Aroma: Spicy, fruity Belgian yeast, with a slightly soapy hint. Nice, sweet, full. Distinctly sweet, almost sugary, with a mild, earthy spicy hop note.
Taste: sweet, thick Belgian yeast, with a spicy phenolic back. Nice and tangy sweet. Very reminiscent of Unibroue, maybe Don de Dieu, and even Chimay Blue. Yes, indeed: very Chimay Blue. In fact, since I kind of feel like Chimay Blue has declined a bit in the last five years, I'd almost prefer this, especially for the price difference. (The same Fred Meyer is selling Blue on a significant sale in 750ml for just a hair under $10.)
At the very end of a long aftertaste, hints at bananas, peaches, tropical fruit, but this is subtle. It's a good thing I'm not tasting this anywhere near food in distance or time, since it's subtle enough that I think this would be lost.
Mouth is thick and sweet and full, and finishes thick.
Overall, excellent as an American interpretation of a Belgian style. I'm always a little surprised when my ratings are significantly higher than the average. it seems that I'm almost always rating lower than others, but this deserves the exception to the rule.

Pours an effervescent honey color with 1 pinky of white head. Effervescence persists throughout. Average head retention & almost no lacing
S: Perfumy hops & a little grassyness
T: Apricots, lemony hops & little breadyness & honey up front. As this warms I get grapefruit & some boozey warmth & a firm malt background. Finishes warming with loads of lemony hops & some alcohol bite, like this as much as duvel taste-wise
mF: Low carbonation medium-heavy body & fairly slick
Drinks easy for the abv, not funky enough for Belgian-freaks, but I enjoyed it. It would advisable to stash a few bottles for aging & cooler weather

Got the first two bottles I saw at Market of Choice today in Eugene. I've been waiting to try this one since I heard about it.
Pours a nice clear pale-straw yellow with a good head, not the strongest retention, but a pretty beer nonetheless.
Smells of citrus and noble hops, a very pleasant yeast smell comes through at the end too. So far so good.
Taste is very nice, the bitter hops come in first, followed by a great nose of belgian yeast, ending with a slight burn. Nicely balenced flavors. Good chewy mouth feel too. Perfect for the style.
Very drinkable brew here, tip of the hat to the Deschutes Brewery team once again. I look forward to putting a few of these down for a year or two to see how the hops and malts play out.

Poured into a Duvel tulip. 3 finger off white head above an apple-juice colored body. Tiny yeast particles float around in suspension. Nice Belgian-type lacing.
Smells fruity with apple and banana notes, along with a spiciness and a hint of booziness.
Taste is sweet and spicy with apple and pear, a hint of banana, lots of yeast, and a hop bitterness in the finish that sets this apart from the traditional Belgian style. Interesting and delicious.
Body is pretty thick and rich, almost luxurious. Carbonation is appropriate.
The sweetness here makes it pretty easy to drink but it suffers from the booziness. A solid American try at the BSPA style.

A: Pours a clear golden color, good sized white head, slight lace down the glass
S: Smell is fruity, slight IPAish almost citrusy hop scent. Belgian yeastiness.
T: Much like the smell, fruity and sweet up front. Solid amount of grain. Pretty surprising amount of hop bitterness. Spicy dry ETOH finish.
M: This has a pretty light mouthfeel for 8.7%, you wouldn't know it.
D: Very well balanced Begian Pale. Also very drinkable, goes down way too easy for 8.7%. Another well done brew from deschutes.

The beer pours a large solid foamy head and is a beautiful golden color.
The smell has an aroma of an abbey style brew.
The taste was a well balanced alcohol and spiciness.
Mouthfeel comes in soft all around and finishes strong and lingers quite a long time on the tip of the tongue and back of the throat.
I found the 19th hole to be a money shot and will have a few more during the summer.

The Deschutes Bond Street Beers are now being carried at a local liquor store... and that of course, is a good thing.
Beer pours a clear gold color with a nice fluffy white head.
Aroma is peppery and with a touch of bananas.
Flavor is quite peppery. Strong crisp biting pepper flavor on the first sip. Beer then settles into a slightly creamy malt flavor, and a bitter and floral hop finish. This beer is has a nice pop and zing to it, but could probably use a bit of rest.
Mouthfeel is nice and full, thick, smooth, and supple.
A nice "version" of the Belgian Strong Pale Ale Style. This is unique, and worth a try. It's a bit potent right now, and might be even nicer a few months down the road. But I certainly enjoyed it right now.

Poured from a 22oz special Bond Street Bomber. Drank from a pint glass while waiting for the girlfriend to get ready before we head down to Deschutes Brewery & Pub.
Appearance- Pours a brilliantly goldish-yellow with a foamy half finger head. Leaves a nice collar and very little cap but does leave tiny spotty lacing. Very tiny gentle bubbles run throughout the glass.
Smell- Nice spicy banana bread yeast with very sharp orange fruitiness. Soft floral hops compliment the bready malt nicely. Random gentle wiffs of alcohol make an appearance also.
Taste- Classic Belgium yeastiness that is quietly subdued. Nice banana like start that slowly gets sweeter. There is a nice pineapple and orange citrus but it is quickly cut by the alcohol. Finishes with a peppery spice and a soft maltyness.
Mouthfeel- Medium body that is slightly thick with lots of effervescence. The alcohol is very present in this beer but it doesnt have that normal warming sensation.
Drinkability- I really like this beer. I had it on tap about two weeks after its release and I didnt really care for it. It was too sweet and kind of unbalanced. The bottle version that Im currently enjoying seems a bit more balanced. My guess is that in 6-8 months this thing is going to be fantastic. Nice Belgium with some American flair.

Poured a bright clear gold with nearly two inches of thick white head that eventually dwindled to a ring. Left some chunky retention on the glass. Smelled of herbal hops, grain, & honey. A little medicinal with the booziness. Tastes delicious; sweet malts, cake with fruity undertones. The strong alcohol bite is somewhat offset by a spicy hop finish, but it could be cleaner overall. Big body for a golden -- makes sense that BA classified it as a Belgian Strong Ale -- but still fairly crisp and clean. Goes down pretty easily for the ABV. At $5.75 for the 22 oz., I'd consider getting one or two more and sitting on them til Xmas...

Pours a lightly hazy medium gold with orange flecks with a short and foamy white head. Lacing is sparse and spotty. Aroma is candy-sweet with cookie dough and bread malts, zesty orange and pine hops, a hint of coconut, and a background of neutral to sweet banana and earth yeastiness. Mouthfeel has a thicker medium body with light, sharp carbonation. Flavor is sweet and fruity primarily: banana, white grape, and apple are backed by light and sweet malts. Distant floral / resiny hops provide a bittersweet background along with a peppery spiciness. Some coconut and sourdough malts in the finish; aftertaste is sweet and a touch grassy.

Im always game for a bomber from Deschutes so I bought a couple bottles of this. This ale appears clear and golden in color; can you imagine that? There is almost no head save for a smattering of white bubbles in the middle of the Chimay chalice. The carbonation is rising steadily from the etching in the bottom. The smells I pick up are faint esters of cloves and thyme (weird). It tastes yeasty and fruity, maybe some apple. Mouthfeel is slightly bubbly to me. This is a good one and really seemed to open up as it warmed, I need to learn to let the bottle sit for awhile outside the fridge before I crack it. I think I will save the other bottle for a while. The alcohol is only barely noticeable. I really like the fact that Deschutes seasonal/big beers are not expensive (with the exception of Abyss which was going for $9 here in Colorado). This beer only cost $3.50 which was a very good price.

Just got this one in the store on Friday and am excited to try another release from the always-excellent Bond Street series. Poured from the 22oz bottle into a Duvel tulip glass.
Body is a bright golden color topped by a small, short-lived, creamy white head. Aroma of sweet bubble gum emanates as soon as the cap is popped, but after the pour settles into a more subtle, malty sweetness with a hint of apples, plum, and other sweet fruit. Palate is mildly sweet up front, with a fruity and slightly bitter hop profile balancing things out. The body is just a tad sticky, which is just about perfect for the style. The nuances and esters are a little lacking compared to a true Belgian ale, but this is a good American interpretation. Good job Decshutes on branching out to a completely new style of beer.

Much thanks to LeftMindedRighty for sharing this beer with me. You are a saint, good sir.
Appearance: Pours a transparent honey gold color with a creamy head and little lacing.
Smell: Certainly sweet and yeasty with a strong malt and alcohol nose perfumey sugars and grassy hops.
Taste: It is sweet and fruity with a spicy finish. It is hard to call this a 'Belgian' but if not what else would you call it? It is malty and sugary sweet with some apple and melon on the way to nice crisp finish with some spices.
Mouthfeel: Soft and slick with moderate carbonation that leads to an almost chewy feel but still light.
Drinkability: Surprisingly high drinkability for a beer with 8.70 % ABV. Wow. The alcohol is present but does not stand in the way of my drinking it right up.
Hope this is helpful.

22 ounce bomber purchased from Liquid Solutions for about five dollars
Poured into my Dogfish Head snifter with a golden yellow color that had a slightly orange tint
Head was soapy and close to an inch in heighth, had nice retention and left lacing after a whole hour
Smell was full of apples, particularly granny smith or sour types, lots of honey, Belgian yeast which gave it a grainy bread aroma
Taste was nicely balanced and was both sweet and hoppy, could definitely taste some tarty fruit followed by some bready hops, nice amount of malt to balance out the dryness, candy-like taste in the finish that lasted for about a minute after each sip
Could not have drank much more than this and it took me an hour and twenty minutes to finish the bottle, pretty high alcohol content coming in at around nine percent, not too heavy but the sweetness makes it go down a little less easier than it should
Another great beer from Deschutes, wish this bottle was readily available somewhere near me like Hop Trip was, but you cannot have them all
Recommended and should probably drink shortly after getting it because it will continue to get sweeter as the hops mellow out, great price for beer of this stature

22 oz bomber poured into traditional pint glass
A - Pours a straw golden color with an off-white 1/2 head. Mellow lacing while head disappears into a thin layer.
S - Sweet malty grain scent that is clean and soft yet not overbearing. Very little spice or hops involved.
T - Much like the smell, with a sweet grainy taste taking the lead. Again, few hop or spice flavors are evident. Simple in a good way, although I don't see this beer slotting into the Belgian Strong Pale Ale category very well. Its much more of a overly malty blonde ale. Tasty nevertheless, and an easy drinker at that.
M - Medium carbonation at the forefront and a medium body, although its a bit sticky at the finish.
D - Alcohol is not really a consideration here, and this beer goes down fairly easily. Perhaps too sweet to properly accompany most meals (might be great for light meals or fish though). Worth a try, especially seeing as it is not too pricey ($3.49 for a bomber).

Nice white head off of a firm pour, the head drops down to a thin ring of lace and tosses a patch here and there on the glass. The clarity is bright and golden with a few bubbles racing to the top. Wildflower, herbal and grassy hop aroma and a cake-like malt character with a following of alcohol that brings a hint of tropical fruit to the nose. Thick medium body that holds hard onto the crispness as it rolls around in the mouth. Enough malt backbone to keep this beer together for the duration. Heavy bite from the hop bitterness and alcohol mix. Big spicy herbal hop flavor jockeys for the top layer. Hints of ripe pineapple and papaya come through as does remnants of yeast and some herbal phenols. Finishes big with a bittersweet finale.
Very well done, a great Belgian-style ale with a splash of American boldness thrown in for extra measure. Meaning, it has a bit more body for the style but is able to pull it off. I raise my glass to Deschutes Brewery for their 19th and this beer is certainly worthy for that occasion.

22oz from the cellar; originally picked up at New Vintage for about $7 ... cellared for about 5-6 months. Shared with my half poured into my trusty red wine glass.
Big fluffy and chunky white head that drops like I've never seen a head drop before. No lacing. Absolute minimum collar. Left behind a very pretty crystal clear straw colored brew.
Nose is earthy hops and toasted bread. Sage and grassy herbs mixed with pale malts and Belgian candy sugar.. bubblegum and orange peel.
Palate is tropical fruits and spicy hops.. American pale malts and Belgian esters are the finish. Medium/large body with a big bubble carbonation. Weird lingering estery flavors... quite a bit too sweet, but still pretty tasty... I can't get past the finish... like a wit that is that is too big for it's britches.
I loved this beer when it first came out, and then pretty much hated it for a while now. This is Deschutes' first bottled Belgian style; I gave it the benefit of the doubt... Tonight, I am glad I still have more in the cellar... but what it really makes me think is, 19th Anniversary is the training wheel release for the 20th and the Dissident. I can't wait for both. Deschutes has the PNW mastered... now the rest of the world is ripe for conquest.

I guess this is Deschutes first brew of a Belgian ale. They did a good job.
Pours a hazed up, golden body. Carbonation rises to form a slight, yet dense looking white head. Most of the aroma is concentrated in the yeast patterns. Some herbal spice and unripe citrus linger in the background.
Malty for a Belgian ale, imo. Although this is not bad. A good balance between the zing of the yeast. Sweetens it up a bit and gives it some body and depth. Slight honeydew melon and pear detections.
Not sure how this feels. Smooth? Light? Chewy? A bit odd (or maybe I'm a bit odd).
Very nice drinking. I'll pick this one up again.

I was served from a 22 ounce capped bottle into a pint glass.
A: A gentile pour produced a clear yellow body accented by copper hues and a modest half finger off-white head composed of small bubbles. The head fell fast leaving a lingering collar that barely supported any lacing.
S: It produced aromas of lightly roasted sweet malts, yeast and piny hops.
T: I detected the flavor of apples and pears, almonds and white bread early in the swig. These were followed by piny and citrusy (lemons) flavors. All of the flavors were somewhat muted and did not establish a strong profile.
M: It had a light body with a smooth presence and balanced carbonation. The aftertaste was dry, warm with a hint of sourness that lingered.
D: I could easy drink between on and three in a session. It is an easy brew to enjoy but lacks the distinctive character of a top of the class BSPA. Nice brew but not world class.

22oz bottle, been sitting on it for a bit since JohnGalt1 sent me this bottle a few months ago in a great box...served in a Duvel tulip
A - big healthy amount of very frothy and loose, white foam. spotty lacing as it falls, eventually settling to a small floating island. the beer is crystal clear, pale golden color...like apple juice. the last pour from the bottle (about 8oz) sent a significant amount of yeast into the glass.
S - noticed the intense fruitiness as i poured...apples, pears, white grapes. pretty grainy as well, whiffs of minerals tag along. smells a bit hotter than the ABV, alcohol burn definitely in the nose. the fruits "ripen" as it opens up, last pour put a slight spice and belgian yeast scent into the mix.
T - starts off a with some touches of sweetness...light caramel, apples, slight banana and cloves. alcohol is present again here, kind of surprised a couple years hasn't taken much of the edge off. has some belgian characteristics, light yeast and a subtle pepper like those found in a Saison. aftertaste is of apple skin, cloves, and yeast. i actually wasnt sure about this at first but its kind of growing on me as it opens up. quite unique...like some sort of hefeweizen/saison/tripel/BPA hyrbid.
M - pretty subtle carbonation. medium to thinnish bodied, pretty slick and oily feel. alcohol here is again a factor, adding a noticeable burn with each sip.
D - an interesting one here for sure. a bit better than my scoring would indicate, really puzzled by the abundance of booze for a relatively low"ish" ABV beer that is two years old at this point. again, quite unique and somewhat enjoyable because of that.

Thinking of upgrading to Droid Razr M from Galaxy Nexus: a couple of questions
I'm currently on T-mobile using a Galaxy Nexus, but I've been thinking of switching to Verizon for the better coverage where I go to school, and for the LTE for back home.
The reasons I like the Razr M are mainly:
- Smaller screen and body than the Nexus
- expandable microSD storage
- newer phone
I know that I'm losing a little bit by not having the stock experience, but as long as the Razr M gets JB, I'll be happy.
Questions for anyone that has the Razr M:
- Should performance on the Razr M be much improved or worse than on the Galaxy Nexus? I do not know how to compare their processors, but they appear to have the same amount of RAM and are both dual-core.
- Is battery life on the Razr M significantly better than on the Galaxy Nexus? I had to buy an extended battery (2000mAh) for my Galaxy Nexus to make it through the day, but I am a moderately heavy user.
What do you all think? Thanks.

The flats were very stylish and super figure-flattering. My feet are very fat! But the flats fit perfectly. The red color was just as the picture shown! The most attractive may be the camouflage print design. I believe that is a good choice.By Lin** Jul 09,2014
Fabulous design! I love the innovative design of this trendy flat. The leopard print design of this flat gave me the feel of wear a flat made of leopard skin when I wear it. The mind blowing rhinestone chain of this flat is gorgeous to my legs.By Hila** Feb 05,2014
This pair of flats was an obvious choice for me, as I wanted to get something easy to wear for my feet. The shining feature of these flats encourages me to wear them whenever I have to attend cocktail parties.By Ad** Apr 22,2014
Simply super design! I am too much fascinated towards wearing stylish flat with different design and color. The right place where I found awesome collections of flats with innovative design only in Tidebuy online store. Thank you so much Tidebuy!By Jul** Apr 20,2014
The durability of these tender flip flops is startling as I often use them while travelling and they are so much durable that even water do not effects them. They are very light weight and keep me in uttermost comfort level.By Li** Feb 20,2014

The event will feature a variety of guided hikes on the Superior Hiking Trail and other fun things. Check out the event schedule or download the Hiking Celebration program (PDF, 0.6 MB).
Check out the lodging page so you can make your arrangements ASAP!
How do I get to Spirit Mountain / Duluth?
Download driving directions to Spirit Mountain, Indian Point Campground, and between the two Chalets.
Why Duluth?
Minnesota's 4th largest city is developing a reputation as a mecca for outdoor enthusiasts and the City is billing itself as a Premier Trail Destination. Voters just recently selected Duluth as the "Best Outdoors Town" in an Outside Magazine poll.
Several years ago, Backpacker Magazine readers voted it their favorite Midwest trail town. It also made Backpacker's list of the Top 25 places in the U.S. to raise an outdoor kid and Outside Magazine listed it as a Top 10 Outdoor Town and also just recently named it the Adventure Hub runner-up in the entire world! The American Birding Association named it the "Birdiest Small City" because of the great diversity of birds that live in or pass through Duluth.
Enough of the accolades, what about the fabulous hiking in Duluth? Did we mention that there's 43 miles of the Superior Hiking Trail right in Duluth or that the City serves as the gateway to the famed North Shore? Visit our photo gallery for a look at the great hiking opportunities!
Duluth is also famous as an inland sea port at the head of the Great Lakes. Learn more by visiting the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers' Lake Superior Maritime Visitor Center (located right on the Superior Hiking Trail) or via the fantastic Duluth Shipping News website. Be sure to check out the live webcam of the Lift Bridge if you can't be there!
Why Spirit Mountain?
Spirit Mountain is a City-owned year-round recreation area that is located just a few miles from downtown Duluth and all it has to offer. The Superior Hiking Trail winds around the slopes of Spirit Mountain and two spur trails connect with the Campground and the summit lodge. Here are some of the fun things to do in the Spirit Mountain area…
- Ride the Alpine Coaster
- Hike the Superior Hiking Trail to Ely's Peak
- Take a drive on the scenic & historic Skyline Parkway Scenic Byway
- Mountain bike on the cutting edge trails at Spirit Mountain
- Camp in their Campground or stay in one of the Mountain Villas

Recap of the first half in online retailing.
Online retail sales were up 15% in the first half of this year vs. first half of last year, reports comScore Networks Inc.'s Media Metrix division, reaching $22.7 billion. While impressive growth, it's only half of last year's first-half growth rate of 29%. Meanwhile, the Commerce Department reported online sales growth in the first half of 27%. ComScore says the difference is the result of the Commerce Department including auto sales in its numbers. Channel shift is happening in online travel sales as well, with first half travel bookings up 34% vs. a year ago. Here's comScore's story about online retail and travel activity in the first half:

Cave diving seems to be all the rage in the virtual world these days. With Minecraft and Terraria tearing up the indie scene and wacky titles like Bazooka Boy 2 eating up our bandwidth, it looks like digital spelunking is here to stay. It was only a matter of time before someone turned into a multiplayer online sport. Well luckily, Caves Online is just that. (You need to create an account to play but it's a quick, simple process that won't require an email address or any such nonsense. Just choose a name and password and you're done!) It's a fun arcade platform game that has you competing against dozens of "ghosts" of other players who've run the course before you. Use the [arrow] keys to jump over obstacles and pits, collecting gold to spend on upgrades and powerups and keeping pace with the ever-sliding view. Die, and you'll need to start over from the beginning. If only real cave diving where this fun.
Ever had a mysterious phone call from a suspiciously familiar voice, warning you not to do something in the imminent future? It's probably best to listen, unless of course, you're a extremely busy genius who was just about to eat your lunch and check out the latest invention in your lab. Then you're probably okay. Primary Max, by Keybol, is just that, and while most of the game doesn't really have much of a story line, you're still playing as Max as he messes around with his clones in this puzzle-platform game. When you first touch the clone box it records every movement you make until you run over the box again. Then a clone of you takes off to do what was just saved in its memory. Following in the steps of Time Donkey you have to use your clones to get to where you need to be, standing on their heads and using them for a leg up, only Primary Max is a lot more easier to navigate with its platform style of playing.
The thing about inspiration is that it sort of sucks. You could be halfway through your adventure fanfic mashup of Harry Potter and Spongebob and bam! your inspiration leaves you staring helplessly at the screen in the middle of the Krabby-Patty-cook-off-on-broomsticks scene. This is pretty much what happened to Scarlett (minus the fanfic). She is the protagonist of Manor Memoirs, Playrix's new hidden-object/time-management hybrid – a bestselling author who just can't get herself to start working on her next book. So she takes the only surefire cure for writer's block: she buys a sinfully expensive mansion in the country and moves in. Having neglected to visit the place before buying, Scarlett realises the manor is almost in ruins and in dire need of renovating. This is where you come in. You are an expert interior designer and the perfect person to conduct a series of garage sales to raise the money for the makeover.
In Just Pine Games' History Museum Escape, also available free for iOS and Android, you're up to some 1980s teen-movie style shenanigans and find yourself locked in the museum overnight. Because you don't have Donna Noble with you, you can't just boot the door open (or does that only work in libraries... ?), so you'll need to hunt around for a key if you want to escape, and let me tell you, the person who designed this security system must have been shooting for a "Most Convoluted Award". Just click around to interact and pick up items when the cursor changes, and white text will usually display to provide you with descriptions. If you want to try combining things, or just using one object on another, click one item in your inventory, then the next you want to try to use it with. You'll want to experiment with this a lot, since you'll need to come up with more than one handmade tool before you can find your way out.
Doubtlessly you remember Threes!, the addicting swipe-puzzler which gripped us all and influenced the mega-hit 2048. And hopefully you remember Triple Town, the unique match-three game with cute bears and an abundance of trees. These games were so popular and successful for a reason—they demanded attention and required some real planning. But let's play around with these formulae, shall we? Take the basic movement system from Threes!, throw in the rules and obstacles from Triple Town, and stick the grid in a series of finite levels... voila! The outcome is Letter Monsters, a well thought out and deviously cute combine-three puzzler from 1001.com. Presented with cute, colourful monsters labelled from "A" to "Z", your goal will be to combine sister letters to build your alphabet as far as you can. Three A's will make a B, three B's will make a C, and so on. Immovable obstacles and black holes will provide challenges, but certain special monsters, along with eight essential types of boosters, will help you out and make for some exceptionally fierce strategy. Playable both online with the [arrow] keys and on iOS or Android with the swipe of a finger, Letter Monsters brings a fresh aesthetic and a variety of new quirks to a now-familiar gameplay style.
It's nice to be lighthearted, social and full of smiles now and then, but you constantly upbeat extroverts can really try the nerves sometimes. I'm just saying. There needs to be more appreciation for grumps, I say. Without us, who would you happy people have to focus all your cheer-ups on? How else would such poetic phrases as "Turn that frown upside down!" be born? So our first two free online escape games from Self Defiant and No1Game are a wee bit dark and morbid, what with being locked in an asylum or buried in a pit of sand. But, for you happy-go-lucky do gooders, take heart: a cute little duckling from Minoto should provide ample opportunity to tilt head to side and say, "Awwww, so adorabs!" Read more about our Weekday Escape trio...
Bottle Rockets is a downloadable indie sci-fi platform game by James Earl Cox III set to the song "Alberto Balsam" by Aphex Twin. It is a short, artistic work that's worth going into unspoiled, but suffice to say it is about an astronaut deep in space, aboard a station where things have gone seriously wrong, a daughter with a message for her mother, and the wide range of emotions in-between. Its been rated quite highly in the smattering of Game Competitions it has been submitted to, including the Nar8 Storyteling Jam, the GameJolt GlitchJam, and the "Women Are Too Hard To Animate" Jam, so expect a compelling plot, a whole lot of graphical flickering (epileptics take note), and smattering of X chromosomes to keep things interesting.
In Skip Around the World: Finland, the first installment of Carmel Games' point-and-click adventure series, Skip, as you might surmise from the title, is a world traveler who winds up in Finland. And hey, visiting Santa's Village is fine, and sure those Northern Lights are all breathtaking and whatnot, but what Skip really wants is to meet Oiva Vasta, the "sauna guru", who apparently shares Skip's passion for sitting around wearing towels and sweating with strangers, which is basically my nightmare scenario. To find his hero, Skip will need to travel around and see the sights, solving puzzles and performing favours for the locals as he tries to find someone who knows where Oiva might be. Just click to interact when the cursor changes, and click an item from your inventory to pick it up so you can try to use it somewhere. And hey, you might actually learn something about Finland in the process!... sorta. Maybe?
Gridland is from Doublespeak Games, creators of A Dark Room, which as you know means that a) it's a really clever and interesting game, and b) I can't really say too much as to why and how without spoiling it for you because of the way the game slowly changes as you play. Superficially, it looks like a simple match-3 puzzle game. Click on two adjacent tiles to swap them, and if they match, the resources they represent will be collected. The game is turn-based, and while time marches on, it only moves when you make a turn, so plan you moves to get the most "cascade" matches possible as other tiles drop to replace the ones you removed. Initially, it seems both too easy, and, well, weird. You'll need to figure out on your own what's happening and how you figure into it, since the game offers no help or direction whatsoever. During nights, planning your matches becomes even more important, and the thing to remember is that while everything else happens automatically you don't need to rush, and in fact frantically making matches will work against you. You'll need to experiment and really choose your moves carefully... especially when the sun goes down...
Mike Salyh and Cynic Sama trapped a bunch of kids in a mine full of explosives, not because they're villains in an old Lassie episode, but because it's the puzzle game they made in a week, Sweep Miner. In each level, using the [WASD] or [arrow] keys, you move the miner around the level to rescue the minors, who will follow him when you walk over them, and all you have to do to win is get them all to the exit. The twist? The floor is covered in deadly explosives, and the only time you get to see where they are is when the level first loads. As soon as you take a single step, they all vanish from sight, but they'll still send you sky-high whether you can see them or not, so you'll need to memorize the layout. In addition to occasionally having to rescue more than one wayward tot, you'll have to deal with colour-coded warp ladders that will zap you back and forth around the level. All of which sounds like a lot of trouble for kids. I mean, can't you just, like, make more?... what? Oh, so now I'm a "heartless monster" instead of just "practical". I see how it is.
If you have fond childhood memories of chasing out the door after a musical ice cream truck in a crazed desire for the sugary, cold treat, have I got a question for you: what if, instead of chasing after the truck, it came directly to your house and delivered the ice cream straight to your door? Well, this mind-blowing premise is the foundation behind Firedroid's free mobile game, Ice Cream Nomsters. Available for those who sport either an iOS or Android device, this time management title has you controlling a neighborhood ice cream truck in its delivery of its precious sweet cargo to each home as it is requested. Be it of the green or red variety (pistachio or cherry?), you've got all palettes covered.
You're a stickman! You have a lot of guns! There are a bunch of goons in that building that want to kill you! You should kill them first! You've got a battle suit that allows you to slow down time because it has technology or something! Maybe at some point you'll pick up a chainsaw! There's really not that much more to say! Black IV: Time of Revenge, a top-down action shooter by Modern Boys Production, is a continuation of a series that first made its way to the internet back in 2006. Move with the [WASD] or [arrow keys] and aim/fire your current weapon by clicking the mouse. You can enter into a Bullet Time mode for a recharging period of time by hitting the [spacebar], and again to exit it. Change weapons by clicking on them or by pressing the corresponding number key. You can use [Q] to switch back and forth between your two most recent weapons, and [R] to reload. In the top right corner is a menu that lets you select your current special weapon, like grenades or remote-detonated bombs. You aim your current special weapons by hitting [F], then set it by clicking. Defeating enemies will cause them to drop cash and grant you experience. Use these to unlock weapons upgrades and customization options using the menu in the lower left. You can also search cabinets and computer terminals for extra cash, ammo, and health packs by standing by them and holding [E]. Beat all the enemies, bosses, and Da Final Boss and you win! It's that simple!
Down, down, down the rabbit hole Alice went after the white rabbit, never thinking about how she'd get back out. Now the frustrations of a morning that has not been very accommodating to young ladies who chase bunnies and fall a long ways lie in a large puddle, and here we are likewise trapped in this very stately, and quite strange, hallway. So comes your next curious assignment in Alice House No.2: The Pool of Tears from the ever whimsical Funky Land—find five dodoes and unlock the door so you can escape. The dodoes appear in a variety of forms: pictures, silhouettes, and...other things, some in the open, some needing to be unlocked by a code or item. To navigate, point and click on an area you'd like to view more closely; when you can back up, a grey bar will appear at the bottom of the scene as you hover your cursor there. It is a good thing to keep in mind, especially as you'll need to back up to swing open certain cabinet doors, otherwise there is no changing cursor or directional arrows to aid your explorations.
ERS Game Studios' hidden-object adventure series PuppetShow turns five years old this year, proving that there's nothing people love more than sentient puppets with soulless eyes and hungry plastic mouths, so good job, you weirdos. PuppetShow: Lightning Strikes is the latest, taking place in Paris in 1888, and you've been called in to assist when local women begin vanishing during lightning storms, and anyone struck by lightning turns into a living puppet. Despite this, since puppets are already a big part of this alternate-steampunky-France, down to the creepy mechanical newsboys and creepier ice cream vendors (we all float down here), nobody thinks to suspect them right up until one shows up and tries to steal a piece of evidence. Seems the victims might all have something in common, and love ain't always sweet. As you travel the city solving puzzles, you'll uncover evidence you'll need to sort with the help of your new psychic friend who really wants her magical doll back (I swear I'm not making this up), deal with a cranky fellow who possesses the bizarre ability to bring inanimate objects to life, and more.
Like Sentry Knight and Elona Shooter, HighUp Studio's Viking Valor is a defensive shooter, one that, specifically, revolves around blasting vikings in the face with cannons. See, some king stole a gem from your people, and to get it back, you have to kaboom your way through vikings, viking tanks, viking sorcerers, viking bombs, viking... bats?... and, well, you get the idea. In each level you'll face waves of enemies, and all you have to do is aim and shoot with the mouse. In addition to dropping cash you can spend on placing traps to hurt or hinder, your foes also net you experience points, and every time you level up you gain points you can spend on upgrading your weaponry and spells. Oh, didn't I mention? As you level up, you unlock various spells you can activate with [Z], [X], and [C]... each has a cool-down timer, however, so don't go using them willy-nilly. If an enemy reaches and manages to damage your ship, don't panic! Just make sure you pick up the boards occasionally dropped, since they can repair the ship's hull. Of course, you still want to avoid damage as much as possible, since you're awarded stars for each stage depending on how much damage you took, and those stars are used to unlock new traps and upgrades for them.

Voters in Minnesota have defeated a proposed amendment to the state constitution that would redefine marriage as being strictly between a man and a woman. The Minneapolis Star-Tribune reported that the proposed amendment failed by more than 100,000 votes with more than 98 percent of precincts reporting, although the bill's sponsors have yet to concede the loss.
"I think we're going to wait for the rest of the results to come in and see what the final results are in the morning," said Andy Parrish, deputy campaign manager of Minnesota for Marriage, late Tuesday night. Minnesota for Marriage was the organization that sponsored the ballot measure.
Polls have been tight regarding the measure's chance of passage, but as Election Day came closer, support for the amendment waned.
"You dug down and fought for love, with love," said Minneapolis Mayor R.T. Rybak to supporters at a rally late Tuesday night. "You understood compassion. This wound up being one of the most inspirational things that's ever happened in Minnesota. Minnesota is going to be the state that's going to show the country exactly what Minnesota values are all about."
"Saturday Night Live" comic turned U.S. Sen. Al Franken (D-MN) joked in the days running up to the election that LGBT rights are important enough that voters should feel free to abandon their children at home if necessary to ensure that they make it to the polls.
"I don't want any of you to wake up on November 7th and say to yourself, 'You know, I wish I had worked a little bit harder on this,'" Franken said at a rally last week.
"Some of you have families, ignore them," he joked. "I see a lot of kids here, so I see a lot of parents here. An 8-year-old knows how to microwave."
The intense partisan strife over the Minnesota ballot initiative and the millions of dollars poured into the fight have made the measure, according to the Star-Tribune, "the most expensive and divisive ballot question in state history."
Same sex marriage won big victories in all 4 states where it was on the ballot, a list that included Maine, Maryland and Washington state. Voters in Minnesota also overturned a proposed constitutional amendment requiring photo ID to vote in the state, a surprise result that was a blow to conservatives.
Eric Fought, spokesperson for the fight against the ID requirement said that the proposed requirements for voter ID were too vague and that the law could lead to unintended consequences as a result.
"They did not provide the details people needed to vote yes on this," he told the Duluth News-Tribune. "There were too many questions left unanswered and too many doubts."

If you are honest you will be more accurate in your assessments, if you are more accurate, players (and employees) get better feedback, and better feedback helps to improve skills.
The effect of this is that the organisation starts to behave more like an organism than a machine.

IPcopy's summer round up
The summer holiday period is coming to an end, the kids are heading back to school and for the first time in weeks there's actually a full complement of co-workers in your office. IPcopy has been ticking away during the summer season and, just in case you weren't checking our updates when you were on the beach, here's a round-up of our posts from mid July through August.
America Invents Act – One Year Later
Today on IPcopy we have a guest post from Wolf Greenfield attorneys Patrick Waller and Daniel Young that takes a look at the changes seen in the US following the implementation of the America Invents Act. This article is reproduced with permission from Intellectual Property Magazine (IPM). This article first featured in IPM's May 2014 issue.
We are now well past the one-year anniversary of the implementation of the final changes to US patent law under the America Invents Act (AIA), signed into law by President Obama in 2011. While the full impact of these changes on US patent applicants will play out over the next several years, this anniversary provides an opportunity to reflect on the significance of the changes and their impact on the country's patent system.

High Court rules no compensation for inventor Shanks
Today we have a guest post from David Knight of Field Fisher Waterhouse LLP on the Shanks v Unilever case and the issue of employee compensation. This article first appeared on the SnIPpets IP blog and is reproduced here with the permission of the author.
Three years have passed since we reported on the appeal on an interim point in the case of Shanks v Unilever, a case relating to Professor Shanks' (a former employee of Unilever) right to compensation as an inventor of patents of outstanding benefit. (The patents related to a capillary action measuring device which has now found large scale use in home diagnostic kits for diabetes.)
Amazingly the case continues to rumble on, and the High Court (Arnold J) has recently issued a Judgment on appeal from the UK Intellectual Property Office (UKIPO) on the substantive part of the case.
By way of reminder, section 41 of the UK Patents Act provides that an employee inventor may be entitled to compensation if two conditions are satisfied:
- that the patent is of "outstanding benefit to the employer"; and if so
- that it "is just" that he should be awarded compensation.
Once these requirements are fulfilled the employee should receive such a fair share of the benefit the employer has derived, or may be expected to derive from the patent or the invention.
The case was brought in the UKIPO which, together with the courts, has jurisdiction to hear cases relating to employee compensation. After a marathon nine day hearing at the UKIPO, including three expert witnesses, the Hearing Officer decided that:-
- the benefit of the patents to Unilever was £24.5m;
- the benefit was not outstanding;
- but had the benefit been outstanding, Professor Shanks' fair share would be 5%.
Professor Shanks appealed the second and third point above; Unilever appealed against the first and third point. Many issues were thrown up by the parties in support of their respective appeals; we comment below on those that are more likely to have general relevance in other employee compensation cases. (more…)
Unitary patent: News nuggets (August 2014)
Things in unitary patent preparation land are beginning to slow down a little as we head into the summer season. Things will no doubt pick up again in the autumn but in the meantime here's some nuggets of news to keep you going. (more…)
EPO – Rules relating to Unitary Patent Protection
The EPO Select Committee approved the Rules relating to unitary patent protection on 24 June. A copy of these rules has appeared online and is discussed below.
During a session of the recent "Unitary patent and Unified patent court" seminar held in Paris, Jerome Debrulle (Chair EPO Select Committee) indicated that the Select Committee had approved the rules that will be used to administer the unitary patent. IPcopy had not seen a copy of these rules at the time of our conference review post but now, thanks to reader Hans van Tongeren, we have been pointed towards what appears to be the latest version of the rules, which can be found on the Bristows website here.
The EPO's rules document runs to over 80 pages and there is also a 40+ page Annex which highlights the changes from the previous version of the rules. An overview of the structure of the rules document is provided below along with some "highlights" from the rules themselves.
USPTO starts lobbing rejections from Room 101 (is this the post-Alice situation?)
Are USPTO Examiners beginning to issue blanket "Alice" objections against software patent applications? How should such patent applications be presented? How might this develop going forward? And, what should we be doing (if anything) to address it?
An eagle-eyed colleague here at Keltie (thank you Peter Kent) spotted a discussion online last week that suggested that, in the wake of the Alice v CLS Bank decision from the Supremes, Examiners at the USPTO might be beginning to issue blanket objections under 35 U.S.C. 101 to patent applications containing software-implemented inventions.
IPcopy reached out to William Jividen at Dinsmore & Shohl LLP in the US to see if this was the case. The discussion below has been distilled from Bill's comments and other comments seen online. Any mistakes or inaccuracies may be attributed solely to me!
Unitary patent system & EPO strikes – answers from the European Parliament
Back in June IPcopy noted that there were three questions pending in front of the European Parliament from Marc Tarabella (Member of the European Parliament – see his biography here) that related to the unitary patent system. There was also a fourth question regarding relations between the EPO and the EU from another Member of the EU Parliament.
Answers to these questions were recently posted and are highlighted below.
Fieldfisher Seminar Review: Alice v CLS Bank
As noted earlier this week, I had the pleasure of attending Fieldfisher's recent Patent Experts Seminar on 10th July. The seminar comprised contributions from guest speakers including Frank L. Bernstein from Kenyon & Kenyon LLP in the US who spoke to the issue of Alice v CLS Bank (Alice v. CLS Bank: Through the Looking Glass, or Through a Glass Darkly?). (more…)
Trunki Revisited (or "Peter Jones, Dragon not Patent Attorney")
Dragon's Den returned to our screens last night and this therefore seemed like the perfect time to summarise one of the talks given at Fieldfisher's recent Patent Experts Seminar on 10th July in their fabulous new offices overlooking the Thames.
In the opening session of the seminar David Knight looked over the recent Trunki decision (PMS's Kiddee case versus Magmatic's Community Registered Design (CRD) for the Trunki – see image below). While reviewing a design case in the context of a patent seminar seemed a little strange at first it ultimately proved to be an interesting take on the Trunki story and made us look at the position, assumed by one of the Dragons, that the product was not patentable.
Setting the scene David noted that designs protect how "it" looks whereas patents will protect how "it" works. When the Trunki design was originally presented to the Dragons back in 2006 they all decided against investing in the product after Theo Paphitis managed to break the strap on one of the suitcases. During the course of the grilling that inventor Rob Law received he was told by Peter Jones (the tall dragon) that "This type of product is not patentable…..I could have a competing product on the market within 7 days". But how accurate was this patentability assessment? (more…)
European Patent Litigation Certificate – Response to Consultation
The Legal Working Group of the Preparatory Committee has recently launched a consultation on their proposals for the European Patent Litigation Certificate. The consultation timeframe is relatively short and runs until Friday 25 July 2014. Comments are to submitted electronically to email@example.com. The consultation document can be found here and an explanatory memorandum can be found here.
At a recent CIPA seminar The Hon Mr Justice Birss suggested that the best way to influence the Prep Committee's position on the content and form of the EPLC would be to present a united front with other countries in Europe. To that end IPcopy would be interested to hear from readers in other countries, e.g. Ireland, Sweden, the Netherlands, regarding their reaction to the content of the EPLC proposal. Additionally if any reader wants to share their response to the consultation then IPcopy will be happy to start a consultation round-up post.
The comments below form the basis of this ipcopywriter's response to the EPLC consultation. These are personal views.

Nashua deputy police chief placed on administrative leave
"Effective Friday, he was placed on administrative leave with pay," Pappas said when reached by phone Saturday night.
Pappas wouldn't say whether it involves an audit of the Nashua Police Relief Association being conducted by the Charitable Trusts Unit of the Attorney General's Office at the request of Nashua Police Chief John Seusing.
In March, Seusing said: "There were some concerns brought to my attention regarding the governance of (the association) and its internal procedures, whether they have been followed correctly."
Seusing said the association is open to Nashua police, and it provides relief to members and their families during a crisis, buys watches for members when they retire and offers a small life insurance policy.
The association's two-story building is also used for social functions or by officers on duty for a lunch break.

It was actually a test drill that day. They kept going out and coming back in. Depot Bay is a very narrow inlet, as you can see! It was fascinating to see how well they maneuvered it. Fishing boats go in and out from there all the time. it's not very far out to the sea, but I wouldn't want to meet another oncoming boat!

Watch Video: How to settle your debt fast through debt settlement
Debt Settlement Pros and Consby Chrys
How does settlement helps to repay debt?
- Helps you pay less than what you owe
- Helps you save dollars & avoid bankruptcy
- Reduces collection calls
Why does a creditor agree to settle debt?
- Creditors understand that you want to pay back them
- They're afraid that you'll file bankruptcy
- They'll recover as much as possible
How much to save through settlement
What is debt settlement and how does it work?
Debt settlement basically refers to the process wherein creditors accept a fraction of the total outstanding balance from the debtors. The settlement amount is usually reached after a lengthy and continuous negotiation process. Once the creditors receive the settlement amount, they mark the status of the accounts as "Paid as Agreed" or "Paid as Settled" on the credit report.
Debt settlement involves a lengthy negotiation process. The negotiation happens between the settlement companies and creditors after the debtors have saved a specific amount in the trust account managed by an independent party. The experienced negotiators contact creditors and request them to accept an amount which is only a small portion of the total outstanding debt. Once the creditors accept the proposal of the negotiators, a written agreement is finalized and signed by the concerned parties.
The only thing that the debtors have to do now is to pay the final amount to creditors and get debt free.
When should you approach settlement companies?
No one wants to approach a settlement company for repaying credit card debt, departmental store cards, personal loans, payday loans, etc. However, certain circumstances compel you to seek help from the debt settlement companies in USA which are given below::
- You have been lagging behind your payments for more than 90 days.
- You have lost all hope of repaying the loans on your own.
- You want to pay back your creditors.
- You want to prevent your accounts from being assigned to collection agencies.
- You're afraid that creditors may file lawsuit against you anytime.
Check out the 6 simple ways to select a the right company that can help you reduce outstanding balance.
Can you really save money through settlement programs?
Credit card debt settlement programs help you save money. These programs help to lower your principal balance. For instance: your total outstanding balance on a credit card is $45,000. The credit card settlement company negotiates with your creditors and lowers the outstanding balance to $25,000. This means you're actually saving $20,000.
The best part of settling credit cards is that you can save money within a short period of time. There are lots of other debt relief programs which may help you save money, but they often come with long repayment terms. You may have to make small monthly payments but eventually you'll pay more and save less.
Can you get settlement help online?
You can get settlement help from both the traditional and online companies. All you need to do is watch out for the reliable credit card settlement companies online. Browse through the websites of the online settlement companies and gather knowledge about the programs. Once you enroll into the program after completing the necessary formalities, the company will start negotiating with your creditors for reducing your outstandingbalance.
Make sure you check out the pros and cons and use the following tips before getting debt settlement online help.
Find out what the existing customers have to say about the company through the "Client Testimonials" section.
- Check out the accreditation of the company
- Find out if there's any valid contact number of the company
- Refuse to pay any upfront fees to the company
- Avoid working with a company based on verbal or impossible promises
If you don't want to negotiate and lower your payoff amount, then you can try out other options. For instance: you can talk with your creditor and try for a hardship plan. Otherwise, you can enroll into a consolidation program or a debt management plan to pay back your creditors. If none of the options work out for you, then consider paying back your creditors through a court monitored repayment plan.
