Smith & Wesson M&P Shield Vs Kahr PM9
People Who Liked This Video Also Liked
Did this video help you?
Robert Tube: FYI. Pearce now makes the pinky extension for the Shield as well.
IIDASHII: Just FYI, there is a PM9 model with both an external safety and a tactile loaded chamber indicator. I own one. The extra $300 gets you tritium night sights and a polygonal match rifled barrel (as if one can shoot well enough with a sub-compact for that to even matter). If the shield had existed when I bought my sub compact...I'd have bought it instead. The PM9 is a good gun, but I don't like the magazine design at all, and as all Kahr guns are, it is madly over-priced. I'm enjoying your videos.
cswann8: M&P triggers can be greatly improved with a piece of 800 grit sandpaper and a couple of drops of oil (gun oil, bicycle oil, motor oil, vegetable oil, whatever oil).
drtrolish: The trigger on the Kahr killed it for me, I don't want that revolver pull in a self defense situation when every round counts. Same reason why I don't carry a .380 snub nose besides the round count. Practice obviously takes up for most of that but still, just a lot of trigger control required on an already small gun that doesn't fit my hand. The Kahr was also $300 more than the M&P on average in places I looked. That's a huge point for some people, I know it was for me.
Mike Tdishl: Just Subscribed. Excellent review of both firearms.
pitbull82: I think I found the answer in the comments. Pearce?
Steve M: Seems to me that the CW9 is also more comparable in size and round capacity to the Shield than the PM9 is. Also, the safety kills the Shield for me because you can choose to not use it, but you'll never know if the safety is still off till you check it.
Doc Gunn: Excellent comparison. Thanks.
Eric Currence: The PM9 has been my CC for about 4years but I think I'm going to switch to the shield for the following reasons. #1 - The trigger reset on the PM9 is sooooooo long. Even my Ruger SP101 has a shorter trigger pull. #2 - To load the PM9 the slide MUST be locked to the rear and then released by the slide catch lever. You CAN NOT load this gun just by racking the slide. #3 - The distance between the top of the web of your firing hand and the bottom of the slide is larger than on the M&P making it harder to control. #4 - Price at $390 you're getting a lot of gun with the M&P (the PM9 is overpriced)
Mike B: I'm just curious why if some of these pistols are really not good for CC, then what are their purposes then?
Matthew Perry: There's no comparison once you bring up the price. Hands down M&P Shield. I purchased mine for $359. You'd still save money if you add night sights to the Shield. Plus, I don't like the sights on the Kahr. I'd still go with the Shield if they were the same price.
5Ring: Problem being, Kahrs don't cycle reliably when you pull the trigger. You'll get the first one off but will have to slap the back of the slide to fire the second. Kahr P40, worst gun I've ever owned.
mk45gunnr: MP, 25 rounds at 25 yards. 25 head shots the first time I shot it. Nuff said. Bought my shield for 351 plus tax. Would rather have two shields than one Kahr.
hippybigshot: OH NO! Not the pinky dangler.
Walter H White: Just picked up a M&P 9 for $375. My choices came down to that or the cw9. With the melonite finish, two mags, great customer service and lifetime warranty the Shield is hard to beat. I've had so many pocket pistols and carry guns. I decided for me small is ideal, not tiny. Happy shooting!
TheTanman2011: The kahr does have a loaded chamber indicator. The extractor sticks out when there is a round in the chamber
tie oneon: FOR me the $300 is worth the smaller size I pocket carry the G26 but clothing sometimes doesnt allow that and the pm9 does the trick where as the mp is too close to the g26 in size so for me no point in it again, nice video
arlo12345678910: Hopfuly the Shield's trigger will losen up over time. A lot of dry firing may help.
jbravo70: I don't know what a lot of people are talking about but I can rack back the slide of my pm9 every single time to load a round in the chamber, and Im not a big strong guy. I think people just need practice. This gun is super reliable, p380 isn't. The quality is amazing, that's why it cost more. It's real accurate. Only thing I wish khar would do is change look of mags the way they stick out of bottom. For the price of kahr, it should be flawless.
jigsaw183 .: The XDs had recall issues but I love it just. The same. Repeal Obama care.
turkishexpress: I just went and looked at the shield at a local gun shop to see how it compared to my PM9. It definitely feels much larger but I think I'm sold on it. Primary reason is, for bigger guys like me, with bigger hands, the PM9s trigger mechanism really wears on the finger when you're at the rage practicing. After I go through about a 100 rounds my finger is chafed. The shield trigger shield area is much larger and does not rub.
Scott Knudson: I shot my wife's Kahr CW-9 yesterday and the full size and compact S&W M&P .45. The Kahr was amazingly comfortable to shoot and grouped perfectly. I preferred the full size Smith over the compact .45. It was a WONDERFUL gun.
newschoolrhythm: The PM9 accuracy continues to surprise me. I can knock around 4" steel plates at 15 yards all day long with it. Pretty impressive for a 3" barrel. It has become my EDC BUG. Both are good pistols though. I watched this video wondering how the size compared and if the S&W would make a good pocket gun. Sounds like the answer is no. Thanks for posting. To anyone reading this, if you go the PM9 route, ditch the 8 round mag. They are notorious for causing jams. So much so that Kahr will swap them out for free with a 6 round mag. I highly recommend the Pierce angled grip extension that adds a pinky base without extra capacity.
Togglefree: My opinion is that the Kahr CW9 compares better with the Shield 9mm. I just recently purchased a Shield to be my carry. Not intended to be a pocket gun.
pitbull82: +SnareMan What type of mag extension is that on the pm9?i want to order one. I hate the factory extended magazine. Ps. Subscribed! I like your content! Thanks.
TheTanman2011: That sticky mag drop on the kahr is a problem with that individual gun. All the kahr I have used magazine drops free no problem
jigsaw183 .: Just bought the Khar PM9. Price isn't relevant for what I like or my life. Love the shield also.
carlosjavieruhlmann: I went with the Kahr PM9 and I'm glad I did. No better gun to carry on an appendix holster or even in a pocket holster. There is a break-in period on all Kahr handguns (100-200 rounds). Excellent review of both weapons, very objective and factual information for anyone looking to buy either handgun. Thanks!
drunkinmaster1: The Kahr PM9 has a match grade barrel, adjustable sights. If you want to save a few hundred dollars you can get the CM9 that has the same trigger pull, but with a conventional barrel, pinned sights, and only one magazine. Ive seen them for as low as $400
Eman3037: Good job with this video.Thanks
roninpainbringer: you should be comparing the shield to the P9 not the PM9.
ManOf TheMinute: the Kahr CM9 is great, ive had one as my daily for a couple years now, i highly recommend it if you plan to ever pocket carry.
excelerater: I CCW the Kahr PM9 w night sights,smaller gun,lighter and more accurate
Privat3Kag3: As of June 5th, 2014 Smith & Wesson now offer a non thumb safety version of the shield. http://www.smith-wesson.com/wcsstore/SmWesson2/upload/other/MPShieldNTSFinal.pdf http://www.smith-wesson.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/Product4_750001_750051_831056_-1_780153_757781_757781_ProductDisplayErrorView_Y This is now my Favorite CCW Pistol, Anyone else Agree? THUMBS UP SO THE WORD GETS OUT.
Sho10000: Good video, but you're wrong on the loaded chamber indicator, the Kahr has an indicator on the right side of the gun. When a round is chambered it will extrude from the gun. When not loaded it remains flush with the gun.
ParabellumJ: There is. The fix is to disassemble the mag and gently squeeze the top of the mag near the feed lips with pliers. You don't need to squeeze much at all, so be careful. Since you have the mag apart it wouldn't be a bad idea to polish it with some flitz or mothers mag polish. I did this to my mags and they eject silky smooth, but all of them ejected fine without the mods. The Kahrs weakness are its mags. Otherwise its a great pistol. Good review.
SnareMan: I don't like them either. I just don't use it.
Manson Prepper: Kel-tec guns are piece of crap. cool designs but garbage weapons. Kahr owns any manufacture in making sub compact pistols
SnareMan: Thanks for the comment and sub. Its definitely a long trigger pull.
SnareMan: Thanks!
Gino K: Size & weight of the kahr compare closer to many 380's but with the benefit of a full 9 or even a 40 sw!
TheTF01: FYI the main reason the PM9 is so expensive is that it has Kahr's polygonal barrel similar to glock barrels. Therefore it should theoretically have better accuracy at distance, but I would still buy the Shield over the PM9!
Jaine's Obsession: Gawd! I wish I could just "pick up" a M&P Shield but I waited way too late and now I'd have a better chance of finding a unicorn now! Instead I got a Springfield XDS .45 ACP and even though most people love it and I'm a fan of both Springfield and S&W, I'm frankly done with the XDS. The recoil is ridiculous and the grip is way too textured and uncomfortable. I've heard great things about the Shield and I wish I could figure out when they'll start producing them again!
SnareMan: What don't you like about it? You mean on the Shield or the compact/full size?
ogarciaz14: Better answer than mine.
propdoctor21564: Forgot to mention that spare Kahr mags are much easier to carry in a pocket since they don't have the giant baseplate many other brands do... Sure they don't look as nice but who cares on a defense gun that's is carried concealed.
SnareMan: Yea, I don't feel like I'm jerking my PM9. Its just a long smooth pull. Its the Shield I feel like I'm jerking
TheARMSChannel: wow all thaat money for the kahr and no drop free mag. crazy
SnareMan: I think the Kahr is a lot more snappy/uncomfortable than the Shield. I just need to get used to the long trigger pull on the Kahr every its a super smooth trigger though.
KENFL74: Thanks for the video(s). They are very helpful. I am considering the Shield and was wondering how many rounds have you put through it? (roughly) I am trying to figure out if you have experienced any mag drops or jams at the range with the Shield. And one quick question about CM9 and PM9. Is PM9 worth the price difference from CM9? Is the price difference "reliability" or just the finishing? thanks again.

Pregnancy health centre
Antenatal appointments - Screening tests and checks during your pregnancy
Early in your pregnancy you will be offered a number of different tests. These include tests for you, such as blood tests to check for infections, and tests for your baby, known as screening tests, to assess whether your baby is at risk of developing certain abnormalities or conditions during pregnancy.
Screening tests do not diagnose these conditions but assess how likely it is that your baby will be born with them. If your baby is considered to be high risk, you may be offered further diagnostic tests.
Screening tests can reassure you that your baby is likely to be born healthy, but can also prepare you if there is a chance your baby will be born with special needs. You do not have to have any screening tests if you do not wish to, although they can help your antenatal care team to provide the best care and support for you and your baby throughout your pregnancy.
All tests are done to help make your pregnancy safer or to check that your baby is healthy, but you should always make sure you are clear about why they are being done. Talk to your midwife or doctor so you understand why a test is being offered so you can make an informed choice about whether you want the test.
Tests and checks you may be offered are outlined below:
Urine tests
You will be asked to give a sample of urine at all of your antenatal appointments. This is checked for protein, also called albumin. Protein in your urine can be an indication of an infection or pregnancy-induced hypertension (high blood pressure), which can be a sign of pre-eclampsia.
Blood pressure
Your blood pressure will be checked at each antenatal appointment. A rise in blood pressure later in pregnancy could be a sign of pre-eclampsia (see below).
It is very common for your blood pressure to be lower in the middle of your pregnancy than at other times. This is not a problem, but may make you feel light-headed if you get up quickly.
Ultrasound scans
An ultrasound scan uses sound waves to build up a picture of your baby in the womb. It is completely painless, has no known side-effects and can be carried out at any stage of pregnancy.
An ultrasound scan can be used to:
- check a baby's measurement and give a good idea of a baby's age and when it is likely to be due,
- check if you are having more than one baby,
- detect abnormalities in the baby, especially of the neck and spine,
- show the position of the baby and placenta,
- check that the baby is growing and developing normally.
You should be offered an ultrasound scan between eight and 14 weeks of pregnancy to estimate when your baby is due and check whether you are expecting more than one baby. This scan may also be part of your screening test for Down's syndrome.
You may be asked to drink a lot of fluid before you have this ultrasound scan, as this fills your bladder and pushes up your womb to give a better picture.
You should be offered another scan between 18 and 20 weeks, known as the anomaly scan. This scan checks for the physical physical development of your baby. Remember, the main purpose of this scan is to check that there are no structural abnormalities. Your midwife or doctor should provide information on this scan and what the results may mean for you.
Screening for Down's syndrome
Down's syndrome is a condition caused by the presence of an abnormal number of chromosomes in a baby's cells All pregnant women are offered screening for Down's syndrome. Different maternity services may use different tests, but all tests carried out in the NHS will meet national standards.
Combined screening
This involves a blood test and an ultrasound scan. Either during your dating scan, or at an additional appointment between eight and 14 weeks, nuchal translucency may be checked. Studies have shown that the thickness of the nuchal pad, the area between the skin and the soft tissue at the back of a baby's neck, is related to the risk of Down's syndrome. As well as this you will have a blood test that measures two blood chemicals associated with pregnancy. The information from your scan and blood test can be used to estimate the risk of your baby having Down's syndrome.
Serum screening
This test measures three or four chemicals in your blood associated with pregnancy. The measurements can work out the risk of your baby suffering from Down's syndrome. This test is usually done between 15 and 20 weeks of pregnancy.
Testing for infections
Your midwife or doctor will offer you a number of tests that check for certain infections that can cause problems in pregnancy if left undetected. These include:
- Asymptomatic bacteriuria - a bladder infection that has no symptoms. Treating it reduces your risk of developing a kidney infection. It is detected using a urine test.
- Hepatitis B - a potentially serious infection that can affect your liver. A mother can pass it to her unborn baby through blood and body fluids. Hep B can be detected through a blood test and a baby can be vaccinated at birth to prevent the infection from developing.
- HIV - although HIV usually causes no symptoms at first, it can lead to AIDS. HIV can be passed from a mother to her unborn baby but the risks to the baby can be reduced if the mother is diagnosed before giving birth. HIV is diagnosed through a blood test. If you are pregnant and diagnosed with HIV you should receive specialist care and support throughout your pregnancy.
- Rubella (German measles) - you will be offered screening to check your immunity to the rubella virus. If you are not immune you can choose to be vaccinated after you have given birth. It is not safe to be vaccinated for rubella while you are pregnant.
- Syphilis - sexually transmitted infection that can be passed from an infected mother to her unborn baby and may cause miscarriage, stillbirth or abnormality. It is rare in the UK. A person with syphilis may not show any symptoms for many years. Syphilis is diagnosed through a blood test. Mother and baby can be successfully treated if the infection is detected early.
Anaemia test
Anaemia makes you tired and less able to cope with loss of blood when you give birth. You will be offered two blood tests for anaemia, one at your booking appointment and one at around 28 weeks. If you are found to be anaemic, you will probably be offered iron and folic acidsupplements.
Blood group and Rhesus D status
Early in your pregnancy you will be tested to check your blood group and whether you are rhesus negative or positive.
People who are rhesus positive have a substance called D antigen on the surface of their red blood cells; people who are rhesus negative do not. If you are rhesus negative and your partner is rhesus positive your baby may be positive. This is not usually a problem in your first pregnancy, but may affect your next baby if you become pregnant again.
This is because after your first birth, some of your (rhesus positive) baby's blood may have entered your own bloodstream, causing you to produce antibodies. This is known as becoming 'sensitised'. If you carry a rhesus positive baby again those antibodies will still be present and your immune response will be quicker and greater. These antibodies can cross the placenta and attach to the D antigen on your baby's red blood cells. This can be harmful to your baby and cause a condition known as haemolytic disease of the new born, which can lead to anaemia and jaundice.
If you are rhesus D negative you will be offered anti-D injections to prevent any problems if you have more children. Your midwife or doctor will explain the implications of being rhesus D negative and what the anti-D injections do. For more information you can also go to our topic page on rhesus factor disease.
Tests for thalassaemia and sickle cell disease
Blood tests are also used to screen for inherited blood conditions such as thalassaemia and sickle cell disease. These diseases affect haemoglobin, the part of blood that carries oxygen around the body, and mainly affect people whose family origin is from outside Northern Europe (for example someone who is Italian, Maltese, Portugese, Spanish, Indian, Chinese, African or Afro-Caribbean).
In your early appointments your midwife or GP will give you information on these conditions and may ask you some questions about you and your partner's family origins. All women are offered a blood test to screen for thalassaemia and Sickle disease and those considered at risk will be offered a specific blood test
The screening process will determine whether you are at risk of being a carrier of one of these conditions, and if your baby may be at risk of being born with one of the conditions. If you are found to be a carrier of an inherited blood condition then the father of your baby will also be offered screening, along with advice and support.
Gestational diabetes
Gestational diabetes is a type of diabetes that can develop in the later stages in pregnancy. Some women during pregnancy do not produce enough insulin to absorb the high levels of glucose (sugar) in their blood. You are more at risk of gestational diabetes if:
- you are overweight (BMI of 30kg/m2 or above)
- you have given birth to a large baby before (4.5kg or more),
- you have a close family member with diabetes,
- you have had diabetes before, or
- your family origins are South Asian, black Caribbean or Middle Eastern.
Gestational diabetes can be controlled with changes in diet and exercise or with insulin if lifestyle measures are not effective. You will be closely monitored if you have gestational diabetes or are thought to be at risk.
If left untreated, you may be at risk of a miscarriage or your baby may grow to be larger than normal which can lead to difficulties during birth. Also, your baby may be at risk of dying during birth, health problems following birth and developing obesity and/or diabetes in later life.
For more information on gestational diabetes see the NICE guidance of diabetes in pregnancy.
Pre-eclampsia is a condition that can occur when there is a problem with the placenta, the organ that links your baby's blood supply to yours. The cause is not fully understood. However, it is thought that a problem may develop with the blood vessels in the placenta. It affects one in 10 pregnancies and can cause growth problems in your unborn baby.
Symptoms of pre-eclampsia include:
- headaches,
- blurred vision, and
- flashing lights
Signs of pre-eclampsia include:
- high blood pressure,
- protein in the urine, and
- swelling of the hands, feet, ankles and sometimes face.
Your blood pressure and urine will be checked at every antenatal appointment to check for signs of pre-eclampsia. You may have to have your blood pressure checked more often if you show other signs of pre-eclampsia, such as protein in your urine.
You are more at risk of pre-eclampsia when you are pregnant and:
- you are aged 40 or over,
- you have not had a baby before,
- your last pregnancy was more than 10 years ago,
- you or a family member have had pre-eclampsia before,
- your body mass index is 35kg/m2 or more,
- you have circulatory problems such as high blood pressure,
- you have kidney disease, or
- you are expecting more than one baby.
Placenta praevia (low-lying placenta)
Placenta praevia is when the placenta is attached to the lower part of the uterus and covers all or part of the entrance to the womb (cervix).
If in your anomaly scan (at 18-20 weeks) your placenta appears to extend over your cervix, you will be offered another scan between 32-36 weeks to check the position of the placenta again. Usually, as your womb grows the placenta moves up with it so it is in the correct position for birth and does not cause any problems.
If the placenta remains low or covering the cervix then it is not safe to have a vaginal birth and you will need a caesarean section. For more information see the caesarean sections topic.

Absolutely tremendous IPA. Full bitterness without the extreme hops and malt of a DIPA. Good amarillo orange flavours, and grapefruit. A bomber was a satisfying fill. Generous white head, above average mouthfeel. Good carbonation, balance.Thanks Augustgarage.

Pours a clear light yellow color with an immense 4 inch head that settles into a plateau of foam. I had to pour this beer and wait for the head to settle a few times before I got a decent glass. Thick globs of lattice lacing all over the glass on the drink down. Smells of fresh citrus zest, tropical fruit, sweet malt. Tastes of citrus zest, tropical fruits, sweet malt, and a slight touch of honey. Mild hop bitterness on the palate after each sip. Good carbonation on this beer. A bit coating in the mouth. Overall, a very good IPA and a solid offering from Alpine.

Had this on tap at O'Brien's in San Diego in August 2009.
A: Golden copper with a nice white head.
S: Lots and lots of tropical and citrus hops going on with a little bit of pine.
T: Wow, much like the nose with plenty of hops in this thing. While I don't think that this is quite as good as O'Brien's IPA from Alpine, this simply solidifies the fact that Alpine is right up with Town Hall, Bell's, and Russian River as the best damn place to get an IPA from.
M: Medium bodied with a good amount of carbonation.
D: Superb. I absolutely loved this one. Had at the same time as Nelson Rye and this one was definitely better. (Also had Exponential Hoppiness at O'Brien's that evening, and this one was definitely better in my book.)

Sun-drenched Sunkist orange with lemon peel highlights. Fine streams of bubbles disappear into the underside of a two finger cap that is darker than ivory and lighter than sandstone. The foam is crazy sticky and is blanketing the glass with some of the finest lace that I've seen in quite some time.
The aroma earns a perfect score because each sniff results in a glorious blast of two of my favorites, Simcoe and Amarillo. Pineapple and pink grapefruit and orange and mango... oh my! This is pure hop juice in the finest sense of the phrase. Malt is not missed.
According to the label, Duet is so named because the two hops are 'in harmony'. One large gulp tells me that Alpine hit the American IPA target in the exact center of the bull's eye. This offering is perfectly situated between the brewery's APA (Alpine Ale) and their DIPA (Pure Hoppiness).
One minor quibble is that more malt would have given the hops a more sturdy launching pad. Their bitter yin would have been even more impressive with a slightly sweeter yang for contrast. As a result, this brew is more of a big APA than a small DIPA, if one chooses to compare it to the styles on either side.
The orange color means that something darker than pale malt is present. There may be a hint of toasted malt, but it's barely perceptible. The flavor profile is dominated by two of the finest American hops in existence. Flavors mirror aromas, pretty much, and Amarillo is marginally more aggressive. That's too bad because I would have preferred the opposite.
The mouthfeel takes a hit because of the shortage of malt sugars. This is the place where the beer feels most like an APA. It's smooth and is nicely carbonated, but any amount of viscosity and/or silky creaminess would have been welcome.
Alpine Duet is pretty close to an ideal IPA from my perspective. It would most likely get there with 50% more pale malt, 25% more hops and a higher Simcoe to Amarillo ratio. Anyone who lives in ABC's distribution area is extremely fortunate. Two thumbs up.

4.38/5 rDev -0.9%
Appearance: Way too much head forms, in fact the pour was all foam, at first, with the clear golden liquid taking its good old time to develop; still the stickage is impressive and that foamy lace is copious
Smell: Citrus and tropical fruit, with a floral cast as well; plenty of tangerine, pineapple mango and grapefruit elements
Taste: The malt provides the perfect canvas upon which the bitter hops do their thing, with all of the aromatic elements noted on the nose appearing on the tastebuds both before and after the swallow; there is a bit of biscuity flavor underneath but this is otherwise all about the hops
Mouthfeel: Medium body but a bit overcarbonated
Drinkability: Despite the overcarbonation, this is still right up there among the top flight examples of the west coast IPA style

Bottle: Poured a light amber color ale with a super large white foamy head with good retention and some lacing. Aroma consists of pure lupuline with floral notes of citrus and grapefruit. Taste is also dominated by some of the most delicate floral hops aromas I have encountered with fresh citrus notes. Malt base is dry and although discernable doesn't take away any attention from the hops profile. Body is about average with good carbonation. Those guys are probably my favorite IPA brewers.

In true "west-coast" style, Alpine's duet claims a true taste of the vernacular with a dry caramel backbone that's completely dominated by grassy and fruity bitterness.
The beer pours a mainly bright golden amber hue that's only kept from brilliance because of its dry-hopped haze. As its cottony white head billows above, its persistent honeycomb pattern lasts until the final sip and laces the glass strongly with intricate and concentric character at every drink.
Boastfully aromatic, its perfume of citrus and herb rests on red grapefruit, mandarin, pineapple and apricot early and then fresch-cut grass, chive and a back note of cannabis. all this transpires on an armature of thin caramel, graham cracker and fructose-type of tangy sweetness.
Its taste greets the early palate with that wafer thing honey and caramel melange with a light pep of gingersnap beneath. But once the fruit-flavors start, there's no turning back. Juicy, vibrant and fully ripened, the citrusy, tropical and orchard fruit character is mouthwatering and highly refreshing. As the hops trend bitter and earthen, the fruit pulp turns to pith and peel while reeling in the grassy, herbaceous and resinous flavors that grip the gullet with bitterness and bite.
While juicy and creamy to start, the beer makes quick work of its structure and nose-dives into a dry-malt scaffold that supports the clean and piquant bittering. Its effortless finish lingers on with citrus and leaf as its slim warmth goes largely unnoticed.
Duet is a beautiful waltz of Simcoe and Amarillo hop variants- each complementing the deficiencies of the other to near perfection. With just enough sweetness in support, the hops dance on the tongue with delight.

A big thanks to Jesse for getting me this growler. I have searched long and hard for this one and I am thrilled to finally be able to throw this one down. I drank this growler throughout the day while messing around in the yard. Served cold and poured into pint glasses, this one was consumed on 04/26/2009.
The pour was very nice, with a copper tinted amber that was just soo damn clear it was rediculous. Light carbonation that continued to bubble to the surface throughout the session really added to the overall look. The aroma was light, clean, crisp and decidedly citrus led. Really very well done here. It had a nice and bright quality to it with really only pineapple and grapefruit leading the charge. As I took the first sip I was instantly refreshed. Such a clean IPA, not overally balanced, this was a light, drinkable, very hoppy IPA, just what I wanted. Started with a rush of pineapple and grapefruit that was balanced against a light bready flavor that popped up mid palate, before falling by the way side and leaving only a nice and dry, and very clean bitter finish. The feel was damn perfect, very carbonated, light and very refrshing made this something that I went through all too quickly.
Overall this was easily one of the most sessionable IPAs I have ever run across and really one of the best tasting. I am glad I got this and it was worth the wait.

A: A very interesting yellow golden color with a white head.
S: Lots of sweet citrus, grapefruit, floral, and a bit of pine.
T: Very similar to the nose. Tons of citrus and floral hop flavors, and a good balance of maltiness. A pleasant bitterness on the finish.
M: A bit sticky and sweet, low carbonation, medium bodied.
D: Great balance of flavors and aromas. I would drink this one again if I got the chance.

Pours a crystal orange amber with a large, pillowy and firm pure white head.
Nose is all perfumed fresh pineapple.
Mouthfeel is crisp and medium to full bodied, although the carbonation is a bit to assertively "fizzy" for my liking and is quite off-putting for me.
Flavors are layered and complex. Lots of burnt toast and bitter coffee; big bitter pine and resin. Front palate is lots of oranges and citrus that goes to bitter pine and grapefruit oil.
Finish is long lasting bitter pine and lime.
Some will surely like this one for its nice flavor profiles. Unfortunately, this is one of the few brews I've tasted where the mouthfeel simply ruined it for me.

This beer poured out as a nice golden color with a massive foamy white head on top. There is a bunch of floating particles in this as well. The smell of the beer has a big hoppy fruit aroma. Some sweet pineapple and peach aromas make this beer really nice. The taste of the beer has a slight pine flavor with more fruit flavors like peach and grapefruit. The mouthfeel is smooth, nicely balanced and gently carbonated. Overall this is a very good IPA. Really enjoyed this.

Thanks Jay for sharing this west coast IPA.
Poured into a Goose tasting glass/mini nonic. Golden orange, a tiny bit of suspended sediment that looked to be hop particles. Plenty of sticky lace coating the glass, with a lasting degree of retention. Sticky, resiny, leafy hops in the nose. Citrus blast hits you nicely on the first whiff.
Rich flavor with sweet caramel, earthy Simcoe, vegetal hop bitterness, maybe a 7/10 on the bitterness scale. Plenty of citrus, bitter orange peel and grapefruit pith. Medium bodied, with a slightly viscous feel. One bomber is easy to finish. This is a solid example of a West Coast IPA...

Appearance: A tangerine colored body with brilliant clarity. The head is two fingers thick, frothy, lasting.
Smell: Resiny, floral hops dominate the aroma. Little bit of orange-like citrus, but largely floral. There's a light crackery malt profile, but it takes a back seat to the massive hop aroma.
Taste & mouthfeel: Massive hop flavor up front; floral, resiny, citrusy, faint touch of tropical fruit. Very dry. The malt foundation brings to mind crusty bread; it doesn't contribute anything in the way of complexity, serving more as a foundation for the impressive hop flavor. Light bodied, quite soft and easy to drink. Bittering hops are strong but pleasantly restrained, perfect for the body and ABV.
Notes: I shared this with a friend and he commented that it had an English ale character to it, only with massive American hops. That's a good way to describe it; it's distinctly different than the Blind Pig we followed it up with. Softer, lighter, perhaps not as crisp and crackery as most West Coast IPAs, strangely cask-like. Wonderful stuff in any case, nearly perfect for the style.

FOXBOROUGH, Mass. -- Lee Nguyen got a second chance on a penalty kick and converted it in the 83rd minute to help the New England Revolution keep their MLS playoff hopes alive with a 2-1 victory over D.C. United on Saturday night.
New England (11-11-7) snapped a three-match (0-2-1) winless streak when Nguyen converted his second penalty kick after being tripped in the penalty box by Lewis Neal.
Nguyen was taken down by D.C. United's Dejan Jakovic in the 55th minute, but D.C. United goalie Bill Hamid dove right to stop the shot.
D.C. United (3-20-6) had its winless streak extended to seven matches (0-5-2). It took the lead in the 11th minute on an own goal by New England defender Scott Caldwell.
The Revolution tied it in the 58th minute when Diego Fagundez scored his team-best 11th goal.

The woman from ParisI took much pleasure in losing my way in Paris' morbid and dangerous streets,
Where sole the high arrogant walls whispered me words I was able to understand,
These stretches of granite trapped me like the grave I've always dreamt of.
The Ladies' ice-cold and distant beauty inebriated me with all the bitterness of temptation;
Under a dirty, driving rain, I gazed at them and suffered
While the parisian mist permeated on my heart its burning frostbites,
And hearses of madness couldn't stop from parading through my mind.
"Veux-tu voir la face cachée de Paris ?" - A slender voice dragged me out of darkness
The Seine flowed, flowed, flowed...And stopped.
Her voice, like a carillon, announced Summer's return,
The breeze blew the rain, the sun revived these leaves dead for centuries,
As if she saved me from a waking nightmare.
"Je t'en prie, ne me regarde pas comme ça..." - An embarrassed smiled was being painted on her magenta cheeks

to the sight of airplanes,
police cars and helicopters

but you dreamed of wings
so much bigger than aspect ratio,
so much wider.

so that day you took me there,
i knew i was out of my element.
your forest stories teased me;
sitting on the edge of your shoe soles.
and that riverbank that you tiptoed on.
little smirk always flashing your white pearls
when you were whisking through this place.
holding my hand in a tight grip
as you gave me a tour of your hidden burrow.
i had never been so in--

glancing the hairs on my neck,
goosebumps rising on my skin

smudged on my thin ivory skin,
your harsh fingers tracing the lace
of the baby doll lingerie
you pasted to my curves.
The angel wings
tied with tape around my shoulders
(the missing piece of innocence
you thought you could borrow)
weighed me down;
with flat eyes
and marker-blotted lips,
I watched you admire your handiwork.
A nimble flourish of knuckles later,
you slipped me between the plastic
of your photo album
and left my name dripping ink
in the corner--
just another parchment doll
too fragile for holding.

with smiles hidden deep down
in her pockets, and she'd only
give them out to the most deserving.
when the quarter hour of her life
struck, however, things changed.
her world was painted black
on accident, millions of shades
turned ashy due to a sickness
that breeds on those empty
spaces between words.
she was dropped into summer
covered in homemade scars,
and with summer, her innocence
was eaten away.
pinned to a bed
like prey, she watched herself
consumed into another
(this world is the 7 a.m. frost
left on winter windows.
and it scares me)
The Cracks Of RealityI traced the tips of my fingers over her porcelain
Felt the skin raise in bumps of sensation.
My mouth fit so well into the crook of her neck
And as her her eyes closed, her breathing shaky,
I found myself swallowing and my heart beating twice as fast.
As her hips rolled into me, as her nails clenched into the sheets,
She told me once more that she loved me, and I assured her I felt the same.
But then reality came, settling into the cracks of my fantasies.
And she slipped from my fingers.
And I was alone.

her curve is ejected

kingdoms burning and knights

you always speak of ships

15. Matt Forte, Bears: He's a great fit for Mike Martz's offense and the line should at least be a little better.
16. Frank Gore, 49ers: I love Frank Gore as a runner, but you just can't trust him to play 16 games.
17. LeGarrette Blount, Buccaneers: How will he respond to being a full-time starter in his second year?
18. Mark Ingram, Saints: It's a crowded backfield, but I have a feeling he'll rise to the top spot quickly.
19. Jahvid Best, Lions: He's a Jamaal Charles-type talent with Frank Gore-like injury concerns.
20. Ryan Mathews, Chargers: Last year's rookie darling took a backseat to Mike Tolbert in 2010.
21. Marshawn Lynch, Seahawks: He's only 25 years old and he can reach his potential in Seattle.
22. DeAngelo Williams, Panthers: The Panthers have a three-headed monster. You have been warned.
23. Knowshon Moreno, Broncos: John Fox wants to run the ball in Denver, but Moreno's on a short leash.
24. Ryan Grant, Packers: Formerly a top-10 fantasy back, Grant rejoins one of the NFL's best offenses.
25. Daniel Thomas, Dolphins: The Dolphins gave their running attack a makeover, starting with this rookie.
26. Ryan Williams, Cardinals: Tim Hightower is gone and Beanie Wells is no good. He'll get a chance to start.
27. Willis McGahee, Broncos: Take a late-round flyer on Willis, who will get a larger workload in Denver.
28. BenJarvus Green-Ellis, Patriots: He was a nice surprise in 2010, but as a rule, I avoid all Patriots backs.
29. Fred Jackson, Bills: C.J. Spiller is a situational player right now, making Jackson a solid starting option.
30. Cedric Benson, Bengals: He'll get you around 1,000 yards and a few scores at 3.5 yards per pop.
If you really want to draft a rookie…
Make it Mark Ingram, the former Heisman Trophy winner who landed in a great spot with the Saints.
Three running backs with sleeper potential…
1. Shonn Greene: Mark Sanchez is overrated and LaDainian Tomlinson is old, so give Greene the rock, Rex.
2. Ryan Grant: He has had nearly a full year to rehab his ankle, and he's better than James Starks right now.
3. Willis McGahee: Like I said, I really like McGahee's situation in Denver. He could become the starter.
Three running backs I would draft with caution…
1. Jonathan Stewart: I'm done with "The Daily Show," who squandered his chance to start last season.
2. Joseph Addai: He's a good pass blocker, so that will keep him on the field until a youngster forces him off.
3. Felix Jones and C.J. Spiller: Neither of these speedsters has proved they can carry the load in the NFL.

Local College One Of The Best For Veterans
The Military Times magazine has named Western Techincal College one of the nation's top 10 two year colleges for veterans. Western, coming in at number 7 on the list, is the only two year college in Wisconsin to make the list. Jackie Helgeson says making things easier for Vet's to transition into college life is something they strive for.
More than 1,400 veteran students are currently enrolled at Western,
from 800 in 2009.
Investigation Turns Up Potentially Key Evidence in Liquor Theft
Thieves ripping off thousands of dollars in booze have left a trail for police to follow in La Crosse. Cops are investigating the theft of cases of beer, wine and liquor from the Pettibone Resort this week-end. They say the crooks pried open a door and stole the booze and left shoeprints and tire tracks in the snow. They also left what could turn out to be the lynchpin in the investigation. A frozen puddle of urine. Cops have collected the urine to test for DNA.
Central High School Wants New Commons Area
Central High School in Lacrosse wants to change the way the east side entrance looks and maybe asking for your help in making it happen. A presentation was shown to the school board Monday night, which would turn the commons area into a more desireable space for students, staff and visitors.
The $180 thousand project would include a new student store and a small branch of Altra Federal Credit Union. The financial breakdown would be $60 thousand spread into 3 entities. They include Central High School fund raising........Central Booster Club fund raising and the capitol improvement budget.
Also included would be community partnerships, community/family donations and wall tile sales. Fundraising will go until March with a tentative ground breaking set for the summer.
Republican Leader Believes Recall Petition Mark Will be Reached
Bill Feehan's got a pretty dim view of the whole petition drive to recall governor Scott Walker. First, says the chair of La Crosse county Republicans, it's clear there's people who are signing petitions multiple times, calling the new claim that organizers have reached the half million mark in petitions a pretty dubious one......
Feehan is referencing election regulators' admission that, although they would flag unusual names on petitions, it would be up to challengers to prove their lack of validity. But Feehan also believes that, even if recall organizers aren't quite there yet, they will be able to collect the required signatures to force a recall election sometime next year. Partially why the party is planning a re-opening of its La Crosse headquarter for early next month.
Winona To Hold Arson Hearing Tonight
Still no arrests in the arsons that struck Winona the past couple of weeks. But the public is being invited to a special meeting tonight to get updated on a series of fires that have occurred in Winona over the past six weeks. The West End Neighborhood Watch Group is being reactivated in an effort give police some help in finding the person responsible for the three most recent fires in the central part of the city.
Both the police chief and fire chief will be on hand to discuss the ongoing problem.
The meeting will be held tonight at the Winona Veterans Center on East Sarnia Street starting at 6.

Negative Advertising and Political Competition
AbstractWhy is negative advertising such a prominent feature of competition in the political market? We propose an explanation that is based on the \fewness" of competitors in a political race. The typical election in the United States is a two-candidate race. In such duopoly contests, there is a simple economic rationale for "going negative" relative to non- duopoly contests: when the number of competitors is greater than two, engaging in negative ads creates positive externalities for opponents that are not the object of the attack. In contrast, positive ads benefit only the advertiser. To empirically investigate the hypothesis that the number of competitors can explain the volume of negative advertising in an election, we focus on US non-presidential primary contests in 2004, where the nature of primaries provides us with a cross section of independent races and large variation in the number of entrants. Our estimation employs novel data from the Wisconsin Advertising Project, which contains information on all political advertisements aired in the top 100 media markets in 2004 races. We find that duopolies are twice as likely to air a negative ad when compared to non-duopolies, and that doubling the number of competitors drives the rate of negative advertising in an election close to zero. These results are robust to the inclusion of a variety of controls and instruments for entrants in the race.

Fourth largest shipbuilding company in world signs contract with Campbell Shipping
Campbell Shipping Company yesterday signed a $30 million contract for a Japanese built vessel. The contract was signed with Imabari Shipbuilding Co. Ltd. of Japan.
The contract is for a 38,000 Ton Dry Bulk Carrier and delivery is expected in 2013. The new vessel will be registered on the Bahamian Ship Registry and will increase the Campbell fleet of ships to 16.
The ceremony took place at the Balmoral Club.
Present were executives of Imabari Shipbuilding Company, the Clipper Group, Galbraith's Ltd. and Campbell Shipping Company.
The Imabari Shipbuilding Group is the fourth largest shipbuilding company in the world.
Kiyoshi Higaki, managing director and a third generation owner of the shipyard, was present for the signing of the contract.
Campbell Shipping: Bahamas lacks qualified mariners
While the maritime industry accounts for 20 percent of the country's economy, it still lacks highly qualified and experienced local mariners, according to a leading shipping company.
The maritime sector is currently the third-largest economic contributor to The Bahamas.
Marketing Officer at Campbell Shipping Norman Lightbourne told Guardian Business that despite having 40 Bahamians working onboard its 15-ship fleet, there is still a shortage of qualified Bahamians in the industry.
Lightbourne noted that three of the workers have achieved high ranks. Two of them, Jamaal Johnson and Garnett Rolle, have become second officers, and another, Howard Bastian, has become a third engineer.
Salaries in the maritime industry can range anywhere from a cadet earning $1,000 to a chief officer earning over $7,000 per month.
"Cadets are paid to learn or undergo onboard training to become deck officers. They have to complete a cadet training manual to prepare them to assume 3rd officer duties after they would have passed the necessary examinations and received their officer of the watch license," according to Lightbourne.
This appeal for more Bahamian involvement in the industry comes after Campbell Shipping announced its involvement in the $20 million Bahamas Maritime Institute. The initiative hopes to strengthen the sector and create hundreds of jobs.
Chandler Sands, the managing director of Campbell Shipping, told Guardian Business in January that far more education is needed for Bahamians to excel in this area.
"What we plan on doing is bringing that training home in an affordable way," Lightbourne said. According to him it is a 36-month program that has to be completed before a cadet is eligible to do license exams.
After completing these exams and receiving an officer of the watch license, cadets can sail as third officers and earn approximately $4,000 per month.
"The third officer works closely with the chief officer onboard and is responsible for day-to-day maintenance of life saving and fire-fighting equipment onboard. As a third officer you also do two to four hour watches per day," he said.
Usually after serving about 12 months onboard, Lightbourne revealed that a third officer is in the position to be directly promoted to second officer, which earns over $4,000 monthly.
"The second officer is responsible for the safe navigation of the vessel. His duties include planning the safe voyages for the vessel to travel from port to ports all around the world, and ensuring all navigational charts and nautical publications are kept updated. The second officer is also responsible for maintaining the medicine/medical logs onboard and has to keep a good inventory of all medical supplies," he added.
The next step for the second officer is to become a chief officer after 36 months of sea time as a deck officer. Second officers can complete a three-month maritime management course and then sit an extensive examination for a chief mate/master license.
The chief officer rank is more of a managerial position, as opposed to second and third officers who work more on an operational level. The chief officer is responsible for the overall safety and security of the vessel," said Lightbourne.
"One of his main responsibilities is also to develop loading and discharging plans for the cargo to be loaded and discharged when the ship arrives in port, and to ensure the ship is loaded properly, efficiently and safely," Lightbourne added.
"He is the person that is responsible for all the deck "ratings" on board the vessel and issues different tasks on a daily basis for the upkeep and maintenance of the ship."
Campbell Shipping committed to maritime careers
A cadre of 153 junior high students moved a step closer to a career in the maritime industry, where employment opportunities for properly trained Bahamians abound.
Campbell Shipping launches latest ship
Angela Benson, a 30-year employee of the Campbell Group, recently launched the latest vessel to be registered on the Bahamas Ship Registry.
The ship was launched at Tianjin Xingang Shipbuilding Heavy Industry Company Limited in China.
Campbell Shipping Company Limited (CSCL) is a Bahamian institution operating from the Campbell Maritime Centre on West Bay Street.
The CS Candy is a 37,000 ton dry bulk carrier. Its addition will increase the CSCL fleet to 15 ships under management.
Chandler B. T. Sands, managing director of Campbell Shipping Company Limited, noted that the addition of the CS Candy has marked a significant juncture in the fleet's growth.
Additionally, it will result in expanded opportunities for Bahamians to embrace a career in the maritime industry as a seafarer.
The launch was followed by a special dinner hosted by the shipyard.
CS Satira named as new Campbell Shipping vessel
WITH the words "I christen you CS Satira", State Minister for Transportation Hope Strachan officially named the latest vessel to be managed by locally headquartered Campbell Shipping Company.
Shipping company aiming to double fleet
By DENISE MAYCOCK
Tribune Freeport Reporter
FREEPORT - With 13 bulk carriers already, Bahamas-based Campbell's Shipping Company is seeking to double its fleet within the next year, a company executive said yesterday.
Jamaal Smith, assistant manning manager of Campbell's Shipping, said the vessels in their fleet represent a total of 15,000 tons or the size of two football fields.
"The company is growing steadily. We have 13 bulk carriers, which are very huge ships... and we are looking to double that number within the next year," he said.
Campbell's Shipping Company has been in operation since 1971, and has ships operating internationally ...
Dame Marguerite Pindling christens new ship in China

Maritime academy to spur 3,000 jobs
Campbell Shipping has unveiled a $30 million maritime academy for Crystal Cay that will create more than 3,000 jobs in the coming years.
In a ceremony held yesterday evening at the Balmoral Club, Prime Minister Perry Christie, members of his Cabinet and leaders of the maritime and educational community welcomed the launch of a historic first. The Lowell J. Mortimer Maritime Academy, or LJM Maritime Academy for short, is expected to considerably bolster what many consider to be the country's third most important industry.
"It will be a $30 million project, with the first phase completed in September 2013 and the second phase in September 2014," said Norman Lightbourne, head of marketing at Campbell Shipping. "It will include a facility on Crystal Cay and part of Arawak Cay, where the new port is."
The academy will welcome 50 students when it opens. That figure will double by the time the second phase is finished in 2014. Dr. Brenda Cleare, former dean of pure and applied science at The College of The Bahamas, has been selected as president of the academy.
The goal, according to Campbell Shipping, is to attract young Bahamians between the ages of 18 and 35. Students should initially come from the Bahamas Maritime Cadet Corps, although the institute is also open to public entrants.
"After their training, these students will be able to go on international ships. We're just not preparing them for our ships," Lightbourne explained. "There are 1,600 registered ships in The Bahamas. Our goal is to have two Bahamians on each of those ships. That means 3,200 jobs eventually through this program."
Chandler Sands, the managing director at Campbell Shipping, said the underlining idea of the institute is to promote "national development" in The Bahamas.
The anticipated spike in employment opportunities is only one off-shoot of such an facility.
Ian Fair, the former chairman of the Bahamas Maritime Authority (BMA), said the creation of the academy should create a much-needed stockpile of workers for the sector. It could also serve as a much-needed means of diversification through the strengthening of the country's ports and the services they provide.
"There are huge career opportunities and there will be a massive growth of mariners over the next 20 years," Fair noted.
The vast majority of international trade is still conducted on the high seas, the former BMA chairman told Guardian Business, and The Bahamas is ideally situated, as an island nation, to step up its involvement. A great "tragedy" of the current cadet corps, he added, is the program fails to elevate Bahamians to the next level so they can compete and work on the international stage.
Last night's unveiling of the $30 million institute included the viewing of a documentary on Campbell Shipping. A videographer travelled with the firm's ships for two years and chronicled the experience.
The academy will feature state-of-the-art simulators and other technology for students, giving them real-world experience on land before they hit the high seas.
Campbell Shipping is launching the institute as a non-profit initiative, with the funding coming from its group of companies.
Contracts signed for additional Bahamian-registered ships
On April 8, 2014, Jola Shipping Company Limited and Jenna Shipping Company Limited entered into contracts with Imabari Shipyard of Japan and ITOCHU for the construction of two ships, which are to be built in Japan and delivered in 2016 and 2017.
The ships are to be named C/S Jola and C/S Jenna. The two ships will be operated and managed by Campbell Shipping Company.
The contracts were signed by Dario Lundy-Mortimer, representing the Campbell Group of Companies, Kiyoshi Higaki of Imabari Shipbuilding Co. and Tatsuo Imamura of ITOCHU Corporation.
The contract for C/S Jola and C/S Jenna were signed at Sapodilla Restaurant, off West Bay Street.
The Campbell Group of Companies said it is pleased to continue this very important relationship with Imabari Shipbuilding Co. Ltd., ITOCHU Corporation of Japan and Galbraiths' Ltd. of London.
The Campbell Group of Companies is headquartered in Nassau, Bahamas and operates 17 dry bulk vessels.
The group has 41 employees shoreside and approximately 400 on vessels at sea.
Imabari Shipbuilding Co. Ltd. is one of the largest shipbuilding companies in the world.
ITOCHU Corporation is a large and influential trading company which is engaged, among other matters, with investments in Japan as well as overseas.
Galbraiths' Ltd. is one of the longest established and most respected shipbroking companies in the world.
The C/S Jola and C/S Jenna will be approximately 38,000 dead weight tons.
The Campbell Group of Companies said it looks forward to receiving the ships into its fleet.

World's biggest 'fatberg' discovered in London sewer
Thames Water say a lump of fat the size of a double-decker bus has been discovered and removed from a London sewer.
The 'fatberg' of food fat mixed with wet wipes formed in drains under London Road in Kingston.
Gordon Hailwood, waste contracts supervisor for Thames Water said:
"While we've removed greater volumes of fat from under central London in the past, we've never seen a single, congealed lump of lard this big clogging our sewers before.
"Given we've got the biggest sewers and this is the biggest fatberg we've encountered, we reckon it has to be the biggest such berg in British history... If we hadn't discovered it in time, raw sewage could have started spurting out of manholes across the whole of Kingston"

A ninja music video made for 8in8's song Because the Origami from their only album, Nighty Night. This video was made in about seven hours. The glasses I wear are my attempt to look like Ben Folds. And the faux piano playing is my attempt to match his amazing talent. Note to self, learn piano.

If you hear this please we love you Tommy Please come home we've left your room Exactly Exactly And if you ever hear this song Know we send our love Take your origami skills And make a paper dove Send a message home We promise not to teach you We don't care what you've done We hope that this will reach you.. If you hear this, please We love you Tommy We won't ask you anything We won't be angry

Another modal top for me this week. I've had this fabric for several years and have never used it. I've got about 5 more yards so I bet I will be using it for another garment soon. This is a printed Burda pattern #7107, but it's also a downloadable one, too. More on my blog here.

I love the colour of this top and I am so glad it is the colour at the moment. It suits you well. I made up this pattern too and found the ties too much as well but you look great in this lovely top and have wrapped yourself up very stylishly.

text: The Rite of Spring's percussive rhythms and violent score enraged its first listeners in 1913. In The Rite of Spring - The 100 Year Shock-wave, airing Wednesday, May 29, 2013 at 8 p.m. on Classical 91.5/FM-HD91.5-1, the ballet's 100 year shock-wave is traced from its initial explosion on May 29, 1913 right up to the present time. The special features a brief interviews and first-hand recollections of the famous first night from Dame Marie Rambert, who was one of the dancers, and Igor Stravinsky, who was in the audience. They lead listeners through memories of the Berlin premiere in 1923 and the 50th anniversary performance in London conducted by Pierre Monteux. The program will also feature extended excerpts from "The Rite of Spring" as conducted by Valery Gergiev.

You're welcome, NBA: 5 former Jazzmen thriving with new teams (5 items)
1 of 5. Al Jefferson
As the Bobcats' go-to guy, Jefferson, who was recently featured in Sports Illustrated, may lead the club to its first playoff appearance since 2009-10, when it was swept by the Orlando Magic in the first round. The Bobcats are currently sitting in the Eastern Conference's No. 7 spot with a 34-37 record.
2 of 5. Paul Millsap
The longtime forward out of Louisiana Tech is being featured with a larger-than-life 3-D billboard in Atlanta.
Millsap, who became an All-Star for the first time in his seven year career this year, is averaging 17.9 points on 46 percent shooting — including 36.8 from behind the arc.
He's also collecting 8.1 rebounds, 1.8 steals and 1.1 blocks for the Hawks, who currently possess the final seed in the Eastern Conference.
3 of 5. DeMarre Carroll
As the team's starting three, Carroll has upped his averages from 6 points and 2.8 rebounds per game last season to 11.1 and 5.5 this year. As a 3-and-D specialist, Carroll has also raised his 3-point shooting percentage from 28.6 to 37.4 since he left Utah.
4 of 5. Mo Williams
5 of 5. Jeff Hornacek
But Horny's squad — which has had to rely heavily on the Morris twins as well as Indiana castoffs Gerald Green and Miles Plumlee — has collected a 43-29 record and currently has control of the eighth playoff position in the Western Conference.
Many media outlets are wondering if he's a shoo-in for Coach of the Year.
Comments (4)
Very upset that we lost Milsap, Jefferson and Carroll. What has been gained with Kantor, Favors and Hayward? No chance for a playoff spot now or in the forseeable future, that's what. So many wanted players to be gone last year. Now the same people want this year's players to leave. Should have been happy to keep the above mentioned players.
I'm all in for the youth movement. Not a fan of the 7th and 8th spot every year. I would rather have a couple of bad seasons and start over than live through another mediocre 8 seed season. Love the young guys and with a couple of pieces and more experience this will be a good basketball team. Go Jazz
The Jazz should have kept Milsap for veteran leadership alone much lest everything he brings in his game! Every year he has improved his game. The Jazz have no consistent leadership!!
Millsap and Jefferson will not lead their team to a playoff series win in an easy Eastern Conference. Definitely never would have done it in the west.
