Orr is washed up. He's not in the same league. At one time, DJ King was supposed to be the best future fighter in the league. Big deal.
Whatever bro. All I know is that Orr owned him. Hard.
He's got the Eye of the Tiger.
Two best fighters of their era: 1. Colton Orr 2. Andreas Lilja.
Nobody really cares about number three (Brian McWhateverbro).
"This is Brian McCandyass of the Calgary Flames here with a special public service announcement. Kids, don't do drugs. Also, don't get stupid looking haircuts or get pole-axed by Colton Orr. All three will embarrass your mother at church. This is the face of a guy who embarrasses his mother at church. Don't be that guy kids, don't be that guy."

Improvements automate and leverage the cloud for application lifecycle testing.
Cloud computing in some ways eases the strain on organizations to create new applications — why develop when almost everything you need is in the cloud?
The thing is not everything is in the cloud, so app development continues — particularly mobile applications but also enabling on-premise apps to connect to cloud services.
So application lifecycle management (ALM) tools are as important as ever.
Hewlett-Packard Co. has released updated versions of several of its ALM tools to automate and leverage the cloud for application testing.
"With the acceleration of mobility as a key strategic initiative, and more customers moving to Agile methodology to deliver faster, we've seen a struggle occur between trying to release (applications) faster and trying to maintaining and improving the overall quality," explained Kelly Emo, director of product marketing for HP Software's application development and management group.
The enhancements help dev and test teams achieve that balance by automating processes and accessing the power of the cloud for large scale testing.
The updates include
–new capabilities for the HP LoadRunner 12 and Performance Center 12 suites. Both are similar automated test and performance solutions, but LoadRunner is aimed at single project teams while PerformanceCenter is aimed at large teams.
Both can quickly set up a large scale tests using cloud services to see if an app can handle heavy global loads. The two suites allow testers to set up load generators in the cloud for performance test.
What was difficult, however, was configuring security and network and scheduling the generator, Emo said, which in some cases could take weeks.
What's new is that provisioning process in LoadRunner 12 and Performance Center 12 has been automated down to minutes.
Also added is the ability to pull in production information from tools like Google Analytics, server log files from Microsoft IIS or Webtrends.

2913 Tasting Notes
Tomorrow morning I'm flying to Orlando, FL to visit my folks, who live in Apopka. It will be a week of no real responsibilities. At least once a day Dad will ask me to show him something on the piano, as I've been teaching him theory & improvisation for a few years now. Mom will find reasons to go to the health food store, the book store, or other locations to get some time alone with me. We'll hang out relaxing. I'm smuggling some Egyptian Walking Onions for their garden. (Last time I smuggled 2 of their amazing aloe plants home, they are very different from the ones I have here). I don't care much for FL, but I like to go visit my folks each year for their anniversary. Last year we had a family reunion in Springfield, MO to celebrate 60 years. It was the first time all 5 siblings had been in the same place in about 30 years! This year it is back to a nice quiet week of goofing off, watching movies, gardening, & eating. And drinking tea. The hardest decision I have to make today is which teas to bring:
A) My favorites…but there are so many!
B) A sipdown sampler collection
I still haven't decided, LOL.
Meanwhile, the TOMC bundle came on Saturday, & today I'm working my way through some of the selections.
Don't think I'm any kind of authority on Sheng, because I'm not, but for a year old Sheng, this seems amazingly smooth, sweet, & even kind of creamy. Most of the other young Shengs I've tried have been kind of harsh, especially if I use more than 3G. The chaqi hit me after the first cup, & I've been sipping cup after cup, in between doing various things that need to be done before I leave town: a few loads of laundry, water all houseplants, etc. The flavor is rich with a full maltiness, a bright citrus sensation, steam sauteed cabbage, & a lingering herbaceousness & thick tongue. I like it!
I've officially designated Monday as "White Tea" day. This started at the beginning of July. I don't have a huge selection of white teas, as I'm not crazy about them, & tend to find them a little lame, to be honest, but I do enjoy trying them out & am gradually developing an appreciation for them. So every Monday I will drink a white tea, either plain or flavored (I currently have a total of 5 in my collection).
Today, it is this one. Steeped according to Verdant's suggested gongfu parameters, more or less:
4G + my glass test tube steeper X 5 sec (adding 5 per steep)
This is a pleasant cup that starts out creamy & sweet, with the flavor & texture building with each steep. Gradually an blanched almond flavor emerged, & that was really nice. I am also thinking of a really creamy oatmeal, the kind you make from steel cut oats. The later steepings are more savory, with a bit more vegetal taste, & an almost citrus like sensation. As far as white teas go, this one is really nice!
First tea of the morning, enjoyed while fixing breakfast.
First steep = 4min
2nd steep = 5min
Both were delicious, smooth, with a nice thick sensation, flavors of Malt, a little chocolate, & that hint of coriander. And NO astringency! Upon finishing the 2nd cup, I have a tingle on the tip of my tongue & thickness along the sides. A wonderful way to start the day!
Mmmm. Some day I'll try Mandala Tea! I keep associating them with Pu-erh cakes which I'm only just exploring so I don't want to order until I know that I can explore the best they have. :D
Cavocorax… I can help you anytime you wish insofar as pu'er teas :) While Mandala Tea really does have a lot of love for pu'er, for sure, we like all kinds of tea and source with love the teas that we and our customers drink. I'd love to assist you in any way that I might to help you find your cup of tea. Or shall I say "cups" of tea! Wishing you joy today and always… Garret P.s. Thanks again, Terri, for your reviews! Always a treat to read and helpful to many customers! I frequently refer to your reviews here in the shop.
Thanks Garret!
Cavo, I'll add some of these to you next box, so you can try them out! I'm getting a pretty collection going :)
Garret – thanks for the offer. Once I'm ready to make an order maybe I'll get your advice on what puerh to try, besides snagging a few "safe" black teas. I'm in Canada, but I'm sure I saw somewhere that I can just email you for a shipping quote so I'm not worried about that.
And Terri – box? :O :O :O
Would you like me to send you anything else as I pack up your Phoenix Pearls? I'm feeling a bit spoiled!
Another tea from Sil, Thanks! You're slacking on your reviews, sister, get with it! ;)
THIS is more like it!
I'm enjoying these teas from Taiwan Tea Crafts. I've decided I like the Assams from Sun Moon Lake. They all share a rich fruity flavor that is very different from the Assams I'm used to, but in a really nice way. This one is really lively in the mouth, with a full sensation, & a nice high note that reminds me of Apricot.
WOMAN! don't start with me..SOMEONE sent me a bunch of tea that basically ends up being what i drink for nearly the entire day…
Haha justjames – no bickering, just good plain fun!
Terri….same boat for me next week…so few teas that ill be able to drink…basically away from them for nearly 10 days. Grrrr… Looks like ill need a work from home day on thurs heh
Not sure why you're bothering to bring tea with you, sis. You will probably immediately find local sources to feed your tea buying compulsion.
Actually, according to Perez, there is nothing of any worthiness in Orlando, lol. Last time I visited mom & dad, she had a collection of bagged teas. No further comment. :)
Another tea from Sil. :)
So, when I opened the bag, I was like, "Oh crap…rooibos…meh…"
But I made a cup anyway. The aroma was a turn off for me, & the first couple of sips were a little to bright for me, too intense.
I almost dumped it out.
I'm sitting around watching old episodes of NCIS. I let the tea cool for a few minutes, taking an occasional sip, & it sort of grew on me a little, at least enough to drink the rest of the cup.
It's wierd…I don't really know how I feel about it. I have mixed feelings. The flavor has the intensity of cough syrup, that would be the combo of rooibos & hibiscus, then there is the fruity currant, which I like. There is a pleasant creaminess from vanilla & some white chocolate as well.
So I don't really like it. There's something over the top & fake about the taste, that lingers in the after-taste & gives me a queasy feeling.
Hmmmm….I'm not really sure how I feel about this one. I'm not used to finding Fenugreek in a tea, & admittedly, I've never been a real fan of it. I guess it's interesting enough to finish the cup, with a rich mouth, but it IS a sipdown, so I doubt I'll ever drink it again.
Thanks for the sample, Sil.
Look what I found in Tony's cupboard! I also found some Vanilla Caramel Assam (Butiki) AND a secret stash of Bilbo Brew (Adagio)!
We're hanging out having a PJ day, being couch potatoes. Right now we're watching "Ray", for the third time. Jamie Foxx is so awesome in this movie.
This is tasty, malty, & a little fruity.
This is another tea from my trade with Sil, & my first tea of the day.
The other sun moon Lake blacks I've sampled were rich with fruitiness, both in the flavor & aroma, & very smooth. They are very different, really in a lovely & unique way. If I understand it, this is one of ose same teas, aged 30 years. It is very smooth, & the fruit flavors have transmuted to root veggies: notably beets & carrots. There is also an earthy taste, like a root cellar, hinting at a Shu puer, but just a hint, with a touch of salt. It's mellow & grounding.
This tea is one of the best blends out there, in my opinion.
It's a wonderful combo: loashan black, shui jin gui, toasted rices, & cacao nibs. Could anything be better?
I'll let you in on a secret. I love it plain, but if I sweeten it, I start to resemble someone with tourette's syndrome, cursing like popeye the sailorman. Adding sweetener brings out the chocolate, the roastiness, the caramel, & this is so damn !$%^&_(^Q*&%$! GOOD, that I can't describe it without muttering obscenities.
I let Tony have a sip, & he, who doesn't like Laoshan Black (blasphemy!), did a double take, took another sip, & wanted to keep the cup. I didn't let him.

3.9/5 rDev -6.3%
A winter warmer brown and spicey Belgium brew. Thanks Doug Shoemaker for an extra from your Esprit order. Easy drink, hard to believe its 8.5%. Foamy initial pour. Lots of malt and some sugar. yeastiness is there. Nicely hopped. Light medium mouthfeel.

Best before 8/1/16.
Pours an almost opaque super dark brown with a foamy dark khaki head that settles to a partial film on top of the beer. Small dots of lace slowly drip into the remaining beer on the drink down. Smell is of toasted malt, caramel, dark fruit, and slight spice aromas. Taste is much the same with malt and dark fruit flavors on the finish. There is a mild amount of spice bitterness on the palate with each sip. This beer has a good level of carbonation with a crisp and prickly mouthfeel. Overall, this is a good beer with a nice mix of malt and dark fruit qualities.

Poured into a Bruery tulip. Picked up at State Line.
Pours a dark brown with some slight purple coloring. One-finger head with a slight bit of ringy lacing. There is some light foam on top throughout The nose brings some light caramel, dates, and some other dark fruits There is slight bit of roast and cream. Pretty plain.
The taste is very light roast with a bit of mild dark fruits. Very light amount of black licorice. There is also some light caramel and toffee. Medium body and light carbonation. Not a stellar brew, but pretty good.

A: The beer is clear and very dark amber in color and has a light to moderate amount of carbonation. It poured with a two finger high beige head that died down but left a thin layer of bubbles consistently covering the surface.
S: The nose has aromas of dark fruits, spices and yeast.
T: Flavors of spices stand out in the overall taste, which also has notes of dark fruits and yeast.
M: It feels medium-bodied and smooth on the palate with a moderate to high amount of carbonation.
D: The beer is extremely easy to drink - any traces of alcohol arde barely perceptible and the beer goes down very smoothly.

Corsendonk Christmas Ale sports a beautiful, festive label showing a Christmas tree and a giant gold star against the backdrop of a snow-filled blue sky. Best before date of 9-22-05. This is my first Belgian beer and the first time that I've used my new chalice.
Although there was a big blast of carbonation when I popped the crown, the beer itself doesn't seem to be overly carbonated. Up top is a voluminous, rocky, tan cap that fades to a thin film and leaves a small amount of lace. The color is dark ruby with bright cherry accents and is simply beautiful. The beer smells like holiday spiced fruitcake and is incredibly complex.
The flavor profile is dominated by dark, dried fruits. Christmas spices abound. There's an underlying sourness that fades to a pleasing bitterness on the finish. Alcohol is extremely well hidden. The mouthfeel, although borderline creamy, isn't mouthfilling. Drinkability is pretty good, but is limited somewhat by the ABV.
All in all, Corsendonk Christmas Ale is a very nice winter warmer of a BSDA and is one that I'll look for every year.

4.68/5 rDev +12.5%
Appearance: Pours a dark russet brown color with a fluffy tan head that dissipates to some islands but leaves plenty of lace around the glass
Smell: Dark fruits, brown sugar, a variety of holiday spices (cloves and anise) as well some orange peel
Taste: Starts out with some fragrant dark fruit and brown sugar tones with nice complexity from the spices; mid-palate the flavor dries out dramatically, and provides a nice oaky finish with some fruit still hanging around
Mouthfeel: Medium bodied with a lot of fizzy carbonation
Drinkability: This is one lovely Holiday ale

4.05/5 rDev -2.6%
Bottle: Poured a clear deep brown color ale with a nice huge foamy head with good retention and some nice lacing. Aroma of bubblegum and sweet malt is really enjoyable and somewhat reminiscent of great Belgian dark ale. Taste is a mix between some bubblegum notes with a nice fruity ester and some sweet Belgian-type malt. Body might be slightly thin for the style with some great carbonation and no apparent alcohol. I was expecting something good but definitely this one exceeded my expectation.

Quite similar in Conrsendonk's Brown Ale, which is esquisit, but with a better musky aroma and flavor. Also has added spices that blend with the light tartness. The color is a solid brown with a ruby tint and floating spices and yeast; otherwise fairly clear with a stubborn foamstand. Smells malty, tart, spicy, woodsy, and lightly sour--typical of Belgians. Atypical in the use of nutmeg, allspice, cinnemon, and lightly pepperred. Viscous, round body with light wine, cider fruitiness and acidic. Finishes sweet, tart, and spicy with a light dryness. Delicate and bold--a joy to drink.

Poured a cloudy brown color, with a nice head that stayed around for the whole glass. Laced up the entire glass! Smell was nicely spiced, nutmeg, cinnamon. Taste followed suit. Almost had a spiced rum taste to it. No hint of alcohol, and very full feeling. Again very spiced taste about it, which cuts down on the drinkability of it a bit. All said, family enjoyed it, got a couple calls of"its different". But this was a nice holiday feeling brew.

Half finger head, on a clear dark amber and red body. Not much lacing. Aroma is almost nonexistent. What is there is a mild pungent and sour grape like aroma. this is a very drinkable mild dark fruit Belgian dark strong. A very safe member if the genre. Medium in body and moderate carbonation. Overall may be my least favorite in this genre. These beers should be bold, this one is weak.

Appearance: Clear, deep reddish-brown body with a well-sized, foamy, light khaki-colored head. Nice creamy lacing on the way down.
Smell: Malty, sweetish aroma smelling of molasses, brown sugar, and simple syrup -- all sorts of sweet treats. There's a strong, downright perfumy orange note in the nose, like sniffing a full shot of triple sec. Touches of spicy and light floral hints.
Taste: Sweet, dark maltiness with tastes of dark caramel, molasses, and brown sugar. Slight nuttiness, maybe even some slight breadiness. As was the case with the aroma, there's that very distinct orange fruitiness. Pleasant spiciness with an extra added dash of coriander. Very, very faint floral hint. Never more than a minor bitterness present. Pinch of cocoa powder arrives late in the flavor. Finishes fruity with a lingering maltiness and hint of earthy spice.
Mouthfeel: Medium-plus body. Medium carbonation.
Drinkability: A tasty wintertime offering from Corsendonk and one I'd be happy (yes, happy) to return to next year.

This beer poured out as a nice looking reddish brown color, the head was fluffy and tan in color. The lacing was a little sticky and hung around for a little while. The smell of the beer has a pretty typical Belgian aroma to it, It's yeasty, sweet and has a slight roasted aroma to it. The taste of the beer has a good sweet malt character to it that's balanced with a spicy aftertaste. The mouthfeel of the beer gives off a pretty good warming sensation as yu drink it. Overall I think it's a good Christmas brew, worth checking out.

A - Arrived in a Corsendonk Christmas Ale goblet, a somewhat cloudy, dary burgundy color with a one-finger, khaki head of foam. It left behind wispy trails of lace on the glass.
S - It smelled of dried fruits - plum, pear and raisin with some Christmas spices, like nutmeg.
T - It hits you with bready malts and the dried fruits. Raisin comes through the storngest. Plus, there is nutmeg flavor and touches of vanilla.
M - It was crisp, sharp and smooth with a dry finish. A medium-bodied ale.
D - This is a Christmas ale that does not disappoint. Fabulous on tap. It was a thrill to find it at Cafe Hollander.

Pours a clear but fairly dark brown with a sizeable creme head. The nose is a lot of spices with dough and yeast and just a good overall funk. Hoooh! Hello spices! I'm getting figs and lots of fruit. This is almost like drinking a fruit cake. Nice and spicy and fruity. Feel has a lot of carbonation, but it doesn't really interfere with anything here. Very nice to drink. A good winter treat.

On-tap 12/21/2012 at Track 84, in Warwick, RI served in a tulip glass.
A: The beer is a dark reddish brown color, with a short off-white head that fades slowly and leaves a thick lace on the glass.
S: The aroma contains caramelized malts, brown sugar, apples, Belgian yeast and a touch of hops.
T: The taste starts out sweet with flavors of apples, caramel and brown sugar. Then some Belgian yeast and hearty malt character breadiness comes in. The hops presence is mild but complementary and brings a good balance. The after-taste is slightly sweet.
M: Crisp and smooth, medium body, medium carbonation, finish is clean.
O: Tasty, goes down easily, not too filling, good kick, good representation of style, this is a solid beer to drink for a while if you're in the mood for the style.

Time and time again this beer continues to wow, me I am for certain that this beer is one of the most palatable and drinkable of all the Christmas ales, it's amazing stuff. Appearance: Mahogany amber brown in color with a lucious cocoa colored tan head, lacing is fine Belgian style lacing all the way. Aroma: Ginger, spruce tips possibly of hop origin scent, peppery zest blended with more Christmas spice accented by juicy fruit undertones, wow. Taste: Apples, raisins, and some slightly alcohol infused flavor but all in all the spices used ginger, nutmeg mild but kicks through with pure balance bringing some beer nirvana my way. Mouthfeel: Creamy textured with a medium body overall high carbonation but doesn't come off spritzy still very smooth and silky going down.

Presentation: 12 oz brown euro shaped bottle with a "best before end" date clearly printed.
Appearance: Very hazy with a dark brown hue ... a healthy head crowns the top of the glass.
Smell: Hints of candied citrus fruit, chocolate cake and light x-mas spices ... anise more predominant.
Taste: Very rich, medium to full in body and a very nice textured silky mouthfeel. Flavours go all over with a biggish malty palate. Citrus, fruity esters and spicy alcohol / spicy ( mostly anise ) take up the front while hints of grain, a sweetness from the alcohol and malt with hints of chocolate in the finish. A light tartness slowly fades with a light nutty taste and a ghost like smoke also.
Notes: Similar flavours to an English Plum Pudding. Warms the soul during these long cold winter days. Very flavourful and lacks no complexity ... lively yet a brew to savour. Goes down in the books as one of the greatest winter brews ever ... fantastic!

The Holy Grail is Found: After using Gore-Tex Pro…
The Holy Grail is Found:
- Breathability
- Waterproofness
- Features
- Sleeve cuff design
After using Gore-Tex Pro Shell, Performance Shell, and Paclite products for many years, and never having been very satisfied with their breathability, especially in warmer weather, Polartec's NeoShell fabric is a welcome addition to the mountaineering market. It pushes the limits on breathability to such an extent as for me to declare the arrival, finally, of the Holy Grail.
This is the real deal. Unlike Gore-Tex, NeoShell breathability doesn't vary with temperature. In warm temperatures, Gore-Tex really does not breath at all. Not so the case with NeoShell, which breathes well in any temperature. In fact, it breathes so many times greater than Gore-Tex, in both warm and cold temperatures, that I cannot even begin to quantify the actual difference.
And quite frankly, whether it is five times greater or ten times, is immaterial. Suffice it to say that it relegates all of my Gore-Tex to retirement status. If this fabric ever really takes off, (Think about e-Vent's troubled history) it will be the Gore-Tex killer. (I have not used Active Shell but no matter as it is only marginally more breathable than their other fabrics.)
Polartec's NeoShell fabric is being marketed to clothing manufactures as a fabric that is so breathable that pit-zips are unnecessary. This is incredibly shortsighted of Polartec for two reasons. First, many, such as myself, will never buy a shell without pit-zips regardless even of the most extraordinary claims. Second, pit-zips serve two functions. They permit perspiration to escape and they allow for greater heat-temperature control. Profuse perspirers such as myself cannot live without pit-zips to help keep us cool.
Westcomb was the first company to make NeoShell jackets with pit-zips. As far as I can tell, the Apoc may still be the only truly full-featured shell to incorporate them. I see that The North Face just updated last year's Jammu shell by adding pit-zips to it and I expect many more companies to quickly follow Westcomb's far-sightedness.
I would even venture to state that the single greatest factor to explain why NeoShell has had such a limited impact on the market in the two years since it was released, is the almost complete dearth of models available with pit-zips. If not already, it is only a matter of time before Polartec realizes what a bone-headed marketing decision it made.
Polartec claims that Neoshell meets industry waterproof standards, and I entirely agree. I recently wore it in a record-breaking rainstorm in Parque Nacional Villarica in Chile. I could find no difference between it and Pro Shell's waterproof capabilities. Like all shell fabrics, its water-shedding ability will decrease with use. I recommend treating it occasionally with a DWR product such as McNett's excellent, ReviveX.
The Apoc is probably the most feature-rich Neoshell jacket currently on the market, even including a helmet-compatible hood, though I will not bother to list all features. Please visit the Westcomb Website. I recommend buying the Apoc at least one size greater than you would normally take, perhaps even two, as Apoc sizes run quite small. (Perhaps it's a Canadian thing.)
If there is one weakness in the Apoc it is in the terrible sleeve cuff design, a significant disappointment regardless of all else I love about the Apoc. The sleeve cuff diameter is much too small. It is nearly impossible to put on thick gloves or mittens and then get the Apoc's sleeve cuff to cover over the ends of your hand-wear, something that is essential to keeping water from running down your sleeve and into your gloves. Even when you get one mitten end covered by the cuff, it is nigh impossible to get the second one tucked-in using your now mitten covered other hand.
To make it somewhat easier, I take the jacket off. Zip it up partially. Put my mittens on, and then slide the jacket over my head as if it were a sweater. This is a royal pain in the neck which gets you wet and requires you to take your pack off. Westcomb needs to increase the cuff diameter by at least two if not three full inches.
Second, the velcro band on the cuff attaches quite poorly if you want the cuff somewhat loose. Only when the cuff is tightly adjusted dues the velcro hold securely. Otherwise, it continually flaps around, another annoyance.
Even taking into consideration the poor sleeve cuff design, this shell is quite likely the best product currently on the market, and certainly the most breathable. And for whatever it is worth, it is a great looking jacket, especially the red color. I recommend it highly.
I wonder why more companys don't put smaller zip vents just in front of the arm pits (Like some north face jackets) rather than in the armpit. I personally hate the restriction and feel of most pit zip designs and find them dificult to open and close quickly.

Keep your eyes peeled for Ventile and Paramo. | I've various Goretex Jackets using from XCR to Pro Shell Ascendor 2, Event and have the Rab NeoShell. | The most breathable fabrics though are from Paramo. It doesn't use a laminate, like all the others, but mimics mammal hair by way of a 'pump liner' (capillarity) which moves water away from the skin faster than it can get in.| I wish there was a Holy Grail of jackets but believe that that would be as illusive as the legendary one. | Ventile looks promising for going through rough terrain with brambles and similar spiky flora.

As NeoShell is such a revolutionary advance over Pro Shell, whereas even the new Active Shell is only slightly better than what most have been using up to now, I feel quite justified in my high praise. I have no doubt that the average person making the switch will be quite happy that they did. (As I have no direct experience with Paramo, I must reserve comment.)
I entirely agree that pit zips tend to be a bit difficult to open and close, and wish the industry would find a way to resolve this. Eventually it will. Still, as ornery as they can sometimes be, I must have them.

magic, When I claimed that NeoShell was the most breathable, it was to be understood as among waterproof shell fabrics. Unless I am missing something here, it would appear that between Ventile and NeoShell, you are comparing apples to oranges.
It must be understood that "water repellancy," and "waterproofness," terms that are quite often misunderstood, are two entirely different things. The NeoShell membrane provides waterproofness. The fabric's outer layer with DWR coating provides the water repellancy. NeoShell, assuming that the seams, zippers, etc, remain sealed, should remain waterproof until such time as the fabric just breaks down. The purpose of occasionally using ReviveX, is to revive water repellancy, or beading, which decreases with use.
I took a look at the Ventile website. Ventile is made of cotton, and while cotton is certainly highly breathable it is not waterproof. In order to compare apples to apples, the industry usually uses the hydrostatic water test, with 10,000mm being considered "waterproof." The PolarTec website claims that NeoShell meets this standard exactly. While the Ventile website claims that its fabrics "have a high degree of water repellancy," it makes no claims to waterproofness, least ways not that I could find. In fact, Ventile clearly states that their fabrics are only either 750mm or 900mm in the hydrostatic test.
I (and no one I know) would ever buy a cotton jacket for trekking and mountaineering, as cotton, once wet, takes seemingly forever to dry and becomes quite heavy as water eventually inundates and soaks the fabric. Ventile may be great with brambles, but not so with rain and wet snow. If I were concerned only with brambles and such, I would just throw on my venerable old highly breathable and water resistant Air Force cotton fatigue jacket.
(Thank you for bringing Paramo to my attention. I would like to learn more about it. Unfortunately, the company's website is a bit vague, for example no mention of a hydrostatic test. It is mostly the usual marketing claims which have burned me so often in the past. It seems to have extremely limited availability but if I am ever again in the UK, I will check it out.)

The biggest selling outdoorsy type magazine in the UK is Trail, in which they mentioned that the only jacket ever tested by Leeds University which didn't leek was the Paramo. 'Hydrostatic Head' isn't mentioned, I suspect, because it isn't as relevant as there is no laminate. However, it is the most 'waterproof' jacket I know. The context that I use 'waterproof' in, is that it keeps me dry, day in, day out, and over many years and in the foulest weather that you have to be barmy to go out in, in the first place. Again though, however, this pump liner makes the jacket a tad bulkier, and warmer, so no panacea in the summer, if you're on a multiple day trek, and weight and pack size are very important.
My Rab NeoShell is great, but when really pushing it uphill the scrim gets wet - sweat and condensation! Any laminate unfortunately limits breathability.
I don't mean to poo-poo your "Holy Grail" comment, but am attempting to curtail your ebullience just a little bit. Some materials will outshine others in certain conditions. If you can only afford one jacket get the Paramo. Use Nikwax to reproof it, as and when. Otherwise, take your pick. You need to consider multiple factors. I have multiple jackets, of various materials, for multiple disciplines and tasks. My Paramo gear will never de-laminate. There are no taped seams to loosen and if they get spiked or ripped are easy to repair. But you can't sit down on a wet bench without your bum (bottom) getting wet. And the style is a little bit 'frumpy'. My partner loathed hers because her handbag kept slipping off her shoulder (the things to consider eh).
I also bought the Taiga fleece, which has the same pump liner, so is 'effectively' a waterproof fleece.
Ventile, I've only just become aware of. The idea of a 'waterproof' cotton enthrals me. As you and I both well know, normal cotton rubs, swells, holds onto moisture and takes ages to dry, but is natural and preferred for comfort in non-sweat, non-wet situations. However, I'd like to give this Ventile Hope you have many years of dryness with your new purchase.

The Westcomb Apoc Jacket is an alpine jacket featuring: pit zips, helmet compatible hood, adjustable waist, and Velcro cuff. The Apoc Jacket has Polartec NeoShell which offers unparalleled water protection and breathability to keep you on the move.
- CampSaver.com
The Westcomb Apoc is an active alpine jacket that's decked out for your expeditions. At 1 lb. 1 oz., this shell won't weigh you down when you're on the move.
Minimalist doesn't have to mean simple. With the Apoc Jacket, Westcomb has come up with an expedition-oriented alpine shell that is super lightweight, packable, and weatherproof, thanks to a Polartec NeoShell membrane that's completely waterproof and breathes like it's got a set of lungs. Unlike traditional breathable membranes that must wait for pressure to build before they start to exchange air with the outside, NeoShell allows airflow to begin immediately, eliminating the clammy feeling of heavy-duty waterproof shells. The Apoc is rated waterproof to 10,000mm, indicating that it will block all outside moisture without inhibiting the flow of air with a thick, semi-impermeable membrane. By sewing the Apoc with 20 stitches per inch, Westcomb more than doubled the industry sewing standard, ensuring that the seams are durable and flat without requiring bulky, heavy reinforcement, and made extra-sure that seams were waterproof by fully taping every one. If you start sweating faster than the Apoc's membrane can dry you out, just open the underarm zips to cool down, or flip up the helmet-compatible hood if the weather starts getting angry. Articulated elbows keep you moving smoothly whether you're hiking, skiing, or climbing, and a laminated hem and cuffs stand up to rocks, trees, and sharp edges.

You say "...it is difficult to imagine a more suitable project for the college, which can build the units at a rock-bottom price by using its own land, employing tax-exempt financing, and avoiding property taxes thanks to the exemption for higher education. And, there is no profit motive in this project."
I say that this project and others which provide below market rent to categories of employees which are deemed to be more important than others is unethical.
All men are created equal. What about equal opportunity?
Subsidized housing for such employees should be included in their total compensation package, a figure which is rarely disclosed by public agencies. We need full disclosure of ALL such expenditures.
And, why should property tax exemptions apply to these facilities? Who pays for the services these properties require?
A home is a home is a home! We don't need special treatment for housing.

There must be something about winning a game in the Big Dance that makes people actually want to dance. No. 9 seed Wichita State knocked off No. 1 seed Gonzaga 76-70 in the West Region Saturday for one of the biggest "shockers" of the tournament. Several of Wichita State's players — led by junior guard Nick Wiggins — broke out a dance circle on the court at EnergySolutions Arena in Salt Lake City. One of the nicest postgame moments came when Shockers coach Gregg Marshall was interviewed by TNT's Jaime Maggio and was joined by his children. Marshall's daughter was so proud and stunned, she had tears in her eyes: Wichita State wasn't the only team dancing Saturday. Marquette, the No. 3 seed in the East Region, hung on to beat Butler 74-72. After finishing his postgame interview, Golden Eagles coach Buzz Williams celebrated by breaking out a jig: Dancing after a win actually isn't unusual for Williams. You may recall that he celebrated a win at West Virginia last year by dancing, w...

Tampa Veterans Attorney Applauds Nonprofit Support of Florida Vets
Tampa, FL (Law Firm Newswire) June 26, 2013 – Sentinels of Freedom is a nonprofit organization which provides wounded vets with assistance through what it calls "life scholarships."
These life scholarships can help the veteran make major life changes after returning home, including obtaining a home of their own, heading back to school or obtaining with much-needed health care.
"So many vets would benefit from all sorts of support as they transition back to civilian life, as would their families," commented Tampa veterans attorney David W. Magann.
The Sentinels of Freedom program began in California, launched by the father of a son who was wounded in 2003 in Iraq. The cost of each program depends on the veteran's existing resources and family needs, but can run as much as $100,000 per vet; the funds support the vet through the program, which may run as long as four years. The Sentinels of Freedom program works to supplement funds provided to the vet by the Veterans Administration.
The Sentinels of Freedom chapter in Brevard, Florida started in 2008. The scholarship money for the first graduate was raised over the course of one-and-a-half years through private donations; the Florida chapter is now graduating its second "Sentinel." Marine Cpl. Robert Smith, the programs first Sentinel, graduated from Brevard Community College with honors, and is currently studying at the University of Central Florida. He says the program helped him, his wife and two children.
The second Brevard, Fla. Sentinel, Ernso Auguste, 32, was a combat medic who suffered traumatic brain injury while serving in Iraq as part of the Army's 1st Cavalry Division. He used the program to earn a bachelor's degree from Miami-Dade College, and is now in the process of earning a master's in health care management at Webster University.
The stated mission of Sentinels of Freedom is to provide life-changing opportunities to men and women of the U.S. Armed Forces who suffered severe injuries and need support to pursue their dreams. The program provides "life scholarships" as well as mentors and guidance to support returned injured vets to become more self-sufficient.

- Attorney Fees in VA Compensation are Contingent Upon You Winning
Attorney fees in VA Compensation claims are contingent upon winning benefits. The VA's General Counsel office and regional offices must approve of all fee agreements, which allows 20% of the veteran's BACK benefits, not future benefits, to be withheld to pay the representative. The attorney does not collect the fee directly from the veteran, but reasonable costs may be collected directly from the veteran claimant. By law, an individual must be accredited by VA as an agent, attorney, or representative of a VA-recognized veterans service organization to assist in the preparation, presentation, and prosecution of a claim for VA benefits.
