The MBA Program will be the only program conducted bilingually in English and Mandarin currently offered in the market
Largest Johnson Faculty Delegation Attends Program Announcement Ceremony and Immersion Program in China
BEIJING, June 3, 2014 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- Tsinghua University and its PBC School of Finance welcomed a delegation of faculty and associate deans from the Samuel Curtis Johnson Graduate School of Management, Cornell University today as part of an announcement of a new exciting partnership. The new venture includes the launch of a dual degree MBA and Finance MBA offered in both English and Mandarin to corporate and organizational leaders across China and beyond. The 21-month-long program is scheduled to commence April, 2015, and offer 60 credits and is designed as bilingual for the purpose of recruiting both Mandarin and English-speaking students all over the world.
"The launch of the dual-degree program is truly a historic moment in our respective schools' histories. With China as the second-largest economy in the world, it is an important point in time to collaborate and develop this important partnership and unique program, to benefit students and executives from both America and China," said Johnson at Cornell Dean Soumitra Dutta."
The expected number of enrolled students is approximately 65 with an average age of 30 to 35 and an average of five to eight years work experience. Coursework will include two, two-week study trips consisting of case competitions, a Wall Street trek, and integration with Johnson MBA and Executive MBA students on the Cornell Campus in Ithaca, NY, and the Cornell Tech Campus in New York City to provide an optimal learning environment and opportunities for intense collaboration.
"Innovation is so important to the next phase of economic development in China," said Ya-Ru Chen, Academic Director of China Initiatives, Nicholas H. Noyes Professor of Management and Global Business. "Facing the growth pressure, China inevitably has to upgrade its focus and move up the value chain; for this reason, innovation is key."
"We plan to carry forward the excellent tradition of the two schools, hand in hand, to create new opportunities and prepare our students for challenges in the business world of the 21st century," said PBCSF's Executive Associate Dean Liao Li. "We are honored to be part of this formidable partnership and foresee the tremendous possibilities for mutual growth."

I think we should take Iraq and Iran and combine them into one country and call it Irate. All the pissed off people live in one place and get it over with.
- Dennis Leary
No, you've burnt your flag.
- Jimmy Carr.
I don't care if they burn flags. They're usually (see later) at least probably putting bread and cheese on the table of a local flag-merchant. I'm not that thin-skinned to care about them burning flags that are their own property imbued as symbols of their own hatred. The scenes from Yemen yesterday (they have so much to be proud of – well, at least they're not Somalia) on the news were (I apologise for the use of a technical, psychiatric, term here) of blokes going totally fucking mental. One utterly deranged loon had a home-brew Stars And Stripes which looked like a thick kid made it (it didn't have enough stars for a start**) and he proceeded to torch it and then stamp on it with what can (ironically – I guess) only be described as an act of Dionysian fervour. He was wearing flip-flops. So absolutely ripped to the tits on pointless indignation he probably didn't notice his burns progressing from first to second degree.
And all over this utter crap on YouTube. And people die over such tantrums that a toddler would be ashamed of (even my little cat looked un-impressed and licked unmentionable parts of himself – but then he does that anyway – especially in company). That is a tragedy of literally Lilliputian proportions but the truly enabling tragedy for these mentalists is that we take such idiocy seriously. Why? Well, apart from it killing people and breaking things it is utterly farcical.
So if they are going to go doolally over a video like that (and it ain't "Triumph of the Will" is it?) then they can burn their own flags and play Les Buggeurs Risible until the camels come home because I don't fucking care any more. If I live another millennium on this planet I do not care whether or not I see another Western flag burnt, another stomp-fest, another bearded git declaiming blood-curdling rhetoric against Zionist-Crusaders or whatever. They are pathetic and infantile and deserve their sand-box (in every sense). It is ludicrous that we take this spitting of dummies out of the pram seriously. Surely strongly held religious beliefs can stand on their own and ignore such obscure mockery? Don't they think their faith is strong enough without the periodic nine-day wonder of a hate-festival?
Indeed it is perhaps odd that we have embassies with such babies in the first place and tread as though over egg-shells in the face of such derangement (and its causes). The odd clip round the ear ought to sort it but all the, "Let's talk about your legitimate grievances and find some common ground" (and there is no common ground between lunacy aand freedom) schtick only encourages them. Does anyone discuss "legitimate grievances" with a toddler when the pureed peas are flung from the high-chair? No. Practically, here the simple solution would have been to have stationed Marines at US diplomatic stations across the Middle East. This seems not to have happened. Instead it was softly, softly catchee fire and the consulate is torched and the ambassador is murdered. Epic Fail. A couple of platoons of Marines (with reasonable RoE) in each of these places and it would have all been very different. Of course in their infinite wisdom the US State Department seemed to be relying on the unstable regimes of the "Arab Spring" and decided to rely on the local "security" services. Yeah, right… Any parents out there need a sitter this weekend drop me an email to my new start-up email@example.com. We have a lovely guy called Paul Gadd on our books.
But I digress…
At a really obscure and deep level is one of the things that really gets the vile coves behind these numpties going?
No, not the freedom to get a beer and a bacon sandwich or to realize before your arranged marriage that women also have legs and don't move on casters or whatever but that in the West (and I include Israel here) the average Muslim is probably freer in general than their co-religionists in the Middle East or Pakistan or wherever and also freer in religion. They hate the fact that, say, a British Muslim is perfectly free to be a Muslim and to enjoy the fruits of living in an essentially secular state. The theocrats hate this because it undermines a central plank of their argument which is that until the Umma is freed from external influences and The One True Caliphate*** is set-up Muslims will always be victims of some great global conspiracy. And we all know who's behind that don't we?
So why do British and other Western Muslims go a-protesting or a-jihadi-ing? I suspect much of it is a strange romanticism (TE Lawrence Syndrome) and perhaps it is much like the romanticism of the Greens. An almost poetic rejection of modernity that takes whatever form their up-bringing primes them for. A strange year-zero urge. It is a desire for adventure and something completely new (yet old) and exciting (yet sanctioned) and the promise of a higher calling than working in ASDA. Except, of course, working for ASDA isn't anything special but providing goods and services for people is vastly more noble than wrecking and killing on spurious grounds.
Either that or there is a poisionous combination of friggeth all to do in these places and a load of theocrats and climbers of assorted greasy poles happy to harness the boredom and resentment of young men to their own ends. I suspect that is a positive feedback loop.
I guess it isn't either/or. I have tried to understand intellectually and maybe I can up to a point but viscerally I can't. I just can't. I can't, can you?
Why not build and have fun along the way doing that?
Works for all the rest of us.
And no, that ain't Orientalism. People from Tierra del Fuego to Anchorage and from Osaka to New York have a name for it. I think we all call it life.
PS. Just heard they have wrecked the British and German Embassies in Khartoum! I saw on the telly some cunt leaping up and down on the German Eagle. Ho hum. Fuck 'em! Can't these fuckers just get over themselves and desire iPhones or something and build a functional economy based on something other than excising clitorises with rusty tin-lids and the virtual butchering of Gordon again and again? (call that civilization?) And quite what we or the Germans have to do with this fracas is utterly beyond me.
*How much more beneficial would it have been to all concerned if they'd watched DVDs of great US-made movies that afternoon rather than rampaging over a truly abysmal one they probably hadn't even seen?
**Vital start for all wannabe jihadis, "US History 101: Louisiana Purchase".
***Of course which Islamist's leader's vision of the One True Caliphate is a vexed question going back to the death of Muhammed himself. A terrible source of tension it must be to be eternally torn between an overarching need for unity in the face of inherent schismatism.

Here are my top 10 Bantamweight prospects leading into 2014. I've disqualified guys who have fought for UFC, Bellator, and WSOF as they have graduated from prospect status. In this listing I've tried to balance potential, and upside with their current MMA resume. I also consider age, martial arts base, training environment and level of activity over the last year.
I'm going to finish with Flyweight soon, but it might be a couple of days or a couple of weeks as I'm going to be getting very busy next week. I'm not planning on doing any of the women's division right now as I want to make sure I take the time and get a good list. I may look at doing those over the summer. My goal is to keep these list as living documents, so as a fighter wins/loses, or get signed by one of the bigger organizations I will try to continuously update this throughout the year.
Top 10 Prospects
#10 Luis Rafael
Record: 24-0
Age: 21
Record: 5'8
Rafael has only been a pro since June 2012 and still found time for 24 fights in that time. While most of his competition has been very weak he did take a step up in October when he defeated Claudir Dutkevis (10-3) by UD. In general it appears that Rafael is using frequent fights against over matched competition much in the same way that other fighters schedule their sparring sessions in the gym.
15 of Rafael's 24 wins have come by way of submission and he is looking to take the fight to the ground. He has a nice entry on his double leg shot, but needs to work on finishing it when he gets in deep on his shot attempt. Luis is developing his standup game but he is still a work in progress. He is not the powerful striker but has developed some nice combinations and will work to the body. Luis did score two head-kick KO's this year and if he can continue to develop this skill it will only make the rest of his game more dangerous.
Rafael trains with the Renovacao Fight Team that is home to UFC fighter Luiz Dutra Jr, and former UFC fighter Jose Maria Tome. There are also several Bellator veterans in this camp, showing that trainers have a record of getting fighters into the biggest shows. Rafael's first fight of 2014 is scheduled for February against an 0-1 fighter, so it looks like more of the same for now, but he will need to step up his level of competition if he is going to get taken seriously by the Sean Shelby's or Sam Caplan's of the world.
#9 Renato Carneiro
Record: 7-0-1
Age: 24
Height: 5'9
Starting with Judo as a kid Renato switched to BJJ, then added Muay Thai as he has continued to add new skills to his martial arts skill set. He is a former Law Student who recently gave up on that pursuit to follow his dream of becoming a professional fighter.
Well-rounded is the best way to describe Carneiro's MMA skills. I don't think he jabs enough to take advantage of his long frame, but he throws a good straight right hand, and knees to the body. He has three submissions on his record, but the one of Mauro Chaulet came after he dropped him with a punch and was just able to pounce on a RNC.
Carneiro trains with the Constrictor team in Brasilia that is home to several UFC talents. Rani Yahya, Paulo Thiago, and some other rising fighters are part of this gym and can help guide Carneiro towards the bigger shows. This is a good training environment with a growing track record of producing quality fighters with the tools to compete at the highest level. I think Carneiro's ceiling is inside the top 25.
Carneiro was scheduled to fight other top prospects Mario Israel and Thomas de Almeida towards the end of 2013, but Israel pulled out with an injury, and then Carneiro was injured before the Almedia fight could happen. Either of those fights would likely be the last step towards landing the winner in the UFC if they can be rescheduled for 2014.
Record: 11-1
Age: 27
Height: 5'8
Birchak is the current MFC Bantamweight champion and was a good high school wrestler growing up in Arizona. He placed in the state tournament three times but never took it farther than that. His natural athletic ability jumps off the screen when you see him on tape, and if he can harness that to go with his wrestling base he could become a factor in the BW division.
Using his wrestling base, Birchak has good takedowns, but is not dominant with his top control. He is very aggressive with this striking, takedowns, and trying to advance position, but he also leaves his openings that his better opponents can threaten with by getting position and attacking with submission attempts. .
Anthony trains at Rise Combat Sports in Tucson, AZ. Current UFC fighter Chris Cariaso, who also serves as the head trainer runs rise. While Cariaso has a very good resume and looks to be building a nice team, he and Birchak stand out when you look at the fighters at this gym. If Birchak isn't getting challenged day in and day out by his training partners I worry that he will continue to try and skate by on his great athletic ability instead of refining the techniques that he will need when he steps in against his athletic equals. I think Birchak has top 15 potential.
#7 Yuta Sasaki
Record: 15-1-2
Age: 24
Height: 5'10
Sasaki was the 2010 Shooto Rookie champion at 143lbs. Earlier this year he demonstrated that he continues to build off of his wrestling base and won the ADCC Asia trials.
At 5'10, Sasaki has great reach for the Bantamweight division, but in some of his fights he hasn't really used it. When he does he can be a devastating striker using his length and keeping his opponents at the end of his punches. Sasaki also has a very good ground game, where he uses his length to sweep or attack with submissions that have helped him to seven submission victories all by Rear Naked, or Guillotine choke.
Yuta trains at Suruga Dojo which I don't see listed as the home to any other high profile fighters... but they have associations with some other gyms around Japan that are homes to the best JMMA fighters. Sasaki has improved greatly over the last few years, so it looks like the training he is receiving has him headed in the right direction, but he needs the right challenges day to day if he is going to maximize his potential. I think his ceiling is inside the top 10.
Sasaki's manager has reported that he is not interested in fighting for UFC at this time and expects to continue fighting for Shooto in Japan for at least another year.
Sasaki vs. Yamamoto Fight starts around 3:40 ends around the 3:52 point.
#6 Sheymon Moraes
Record: 5-0
Age: 23
Height: 5'7
An elite striking background gives Moraes a very dangerous skill set to build his MMA game off of. He has spent extensive amounts of time training and competing in Muay Thai including time in Thailand against some great competition. A KO win over UFC veteran Pedro Nobre last September put Moraes on everyone's radar, but a knee injury robbed him of competing in MMA during 2013. He is expected to return in early 2014.
Striking is Moraes game and he wants to keep it on the feet. If you are not ready to take some shots to the body, do not sign up for a fight with Moraes as he will punch, kick, and knee his opponents in the body breaking them down over the course of the fight. If he gets top control when it goes to the ground he is very capable of using punches and elbows to end the fight by TKO.
Moraes trains with Team Nogueira in Brazil surrounding him with great MMA talent. There are few better veterans in the MMA to train with than the Nogueiras, and through them he is also associated with the Blackhouse gym that is home to even more elite fighters. Moraes was brought on as a coach alongside Nogueira during season 2 of TUF Brazil while he was recovering from his knee injury. I think Moraes has top 5 potential if he focuses on MMA and continues to develop the other aspects of his game.
Patrick Wyman has Moraes at #10 on his Searching for Future Champions list, and if he hadn't missed all of 2013 in MMA then I probably would have had him higher on my list.
#5 Mario Israel
Record: 9-0
Age: 29
Height: 5'6
The Jungle Fights Bantamweight Champion has finished all nine of his opponents (6 x KO/TKO 3 x Submission), and brings some serious power into the cage. In a division that is criticized for not having finishers, Israel packs a punch and can end the fight with one good punch.
Even though he has a background in BJJ, Israel wants to keep the fight standing and is looking to exchange so that he can land his very heavy strikes. He has fight-changing power that can take his opponent out suddenly.
Mario trains at Top Life Amazonas alongside UFC fighter Adriano Martins and some other quality fighters from the Brazilian scene. He is also a friend and former training partner of Diego Brandao. This appears to be a good environment for Israel to continue his development. Israel pulled out of his scheduled November title defense against a very good fighter in Renato Carneiro due to injury.
Record: 9-0
Age: 23
Height: 5'5
Tanaka is building a very good resume and would be a great addition to the UFC today. He is a former Shooto rookie champion, and the current PXC Bantamweight Champion with a quality win over current UFC fighter Russell Doane by Submission.
Tanaka has a great single leg takedown, and outstanding grappling from his top control. He is great in scrambles, which helped lead to his five submission victories. Even though Michinori gets dominant position frequently, he really doesn't attack with Ground and Pound much, as he is looking for the control and then the sub. He has pretty good striking but he doesn't blend it well with his ground game. He doesn't spend too much time striking, but it looks like he has a decent stand-up game, as he will throw a quick combination that he finishes with a head kick. An improvement to his game would be to blend his striking and takedowns better.
I compare Tanaka very favorably to Demetrious Johnson. If he drops to Flyweight I think he could be a top 5 fighter, and potential world champion. If he stays at Bantamweight, I think he could fight his way into the top 10, but his smaller frame will eventually catch up with him against the absolute best in the world.
Like Yuta Sasaki, Tanaka's manager indicated that he is also focused on Shooto for 2014, and not looking to make the leap to UFC right now.
#3 Pedro Munhoz
Record: 9-0
Age: 27
Height: 5'6
Munhoz is a two-time Brazilian National No-Gi champion. He has been a pro since 2008, but has had six fights cancelled due to opponents pulling out, slowing down his career trajectory slightly. Munhoz tried out for the recent season of TUF: 18 eventual won by Chris Holdsworth. He made the interviews with the TV people but feels he missed his chance when he told the producers that he doesn't talk much shit about his opponents. I personally thought he was UFC bound after a convincing win over Jeff Curran for the RFA title in August 2013, but he will have to defeat another tough challenger in Billy Daniels (7-0) at RFA 12 before he gets another look.
There are still some holes in Munhoz's striking, but he has improved it dramatically over the last few fights. His game is still grappling though and he is looking to get the fight to the ground. On the ground he is dangerous from any position and can threaten any fighter in the division.
Munhoz trains with Kings MMA, and Blackhouse gym. Those are both very good training environments for an outstanding talent like Munhoz. I think Pedro has top 10 potential, and should be in the UFC very soon.
#2 Thomas de Almeida
Record: 15-0
Age: 22
Height: 5'7
Almeida has only been past the first round once in his 15-fight career, and that fight ended by TKO in the 2nd round. He is a great finisher and should gets some more challenges fighting for Legacy FC.
Almeida isn't looking for the submission or to grind out victories, he is coming for the KO, and has all the tools he needs to get it. He stalks his opponents and attacks with powerful punches, elbows and kicks at the first opening they give him. When he gets taken down, he is instantly looking to get back to his feet. He was rocked in a recent fight, but quickly able to regain his feet, and score his own brutal TKO victory.
He trains with Chute Boxe in Brazil and also spends time with the Gold Team Texas headed by UFC, Strikeforce and almost every other promotion veteran Jorge Patino Chute Boxe is far removed from its glory days but these are still good training environments for Almeida to continue his development, and get into the Big Show. Considering his all action style and ability to finish I expect Almeida to get signed in the very near future.
Aldmeida vs. Silva Great comeback by Almeida
Record: 8-0
Age: 24
Height: 5'7
Sterling was a 2 time division 3 All-American wrestler for SUNY- Cortland in upstate New York. He also spent some time as an assistant coach at the university after graduation. Before he was done with college he started training at Team Bombsquad and took several amateur fights. Sterling turned pro as soon as his college eligibility was finished and rushed out to 7-0 record in 2011-2012. He almost certainly would have been in UFC by now if he did not have to sit from August 2012-November 2013 with a shoulder injury. His return in November was very successful as he scored a 1st round rear naked choke victory over Joel Roberts at a CFFC event.
Aljamain likes to throw kicks on the feet, and it could be attributed to his long layoff, but he got himself off balance leading to a half slip, half knock down in his last fight. Throwing the front kicks helps Sterling establish range, but when he closes the distance he has a very explosive takedown. He is developing as a finisher as he has ended his last three fights with Rear Naked Chokes.
Sterling recently made the jump from Team Bombsquad to Serra-Longo for his training. Serra-Longo is home to UFC Middleweight Champion Chris Weidman and several other great fighters, this is an elite training environment for an elite level talent. There was a thread on Sherdog back in December that implied Sterling was weighing an offer from Bellator, while being told by UFC that he needed to get a couple more fights. He hasn't signed with Bellator yet and I don't suspect that he will at this point. I expect him to be in the UFC very soon with one or two more fights as it is going to be hard for them to leave a talent like this available for too long. Sterling has a ton of potential, and is in the right training environment to harness it; I think his ceiling is inside the top 5 in the world.
Summary: If you are worried that the Bantamweight division doesn't have a ton of quality depth right now, just wait 12-24 months and this division is going to be a lot of fun. I could easily see many of these guys continuing to evolve and settling into the top 10-15 right next to other quality young fighters like Renan Barao, Michael McDonald, TJ Dillashaw and Marlon Moraes.
Note: Just like Bekbulat Magomedov at Featherweight, I passed on adding Jumabieke Tuerxun due to the reports from last March that UFC had signed him. He has been unable to fight for UFC because he is under contract in China until this March.

The Eastside Club

New York
3.87/5 rDev -11%
A fellow BA from Oregon told me about the Eastside Club in Olympia. The wife and I decided to stop there for a quick beer after a long drive from Astoria, Oregon, to Seattle.
The place is funky and divey, kind of like Olympia herself. On a Monday at around 2:30pm, a couple of odd fellows were hanging out at the bar. There was one hipster, one South American man with a most exotic accent, a sad-looking Native American and a bunch of blue-collar types.
On "Micro Mondays", most pints are only three dollars. THREE. Regular prices are not that much more expensive, though, between $3.75 and $5 for a snifter or pint. Super fresh ales!
I wasn't too impressed with the tap list. I guess I wasn't expecting a lot after reading reviews and hearing from my buddy JM in Portland. Lots of Pacific beer: Port Townsend Hop Diggidy (nice), Snipes no-bake Stout (not so good), Crux Imperial IPA (lovely!), Boneyard RPM IPA, Hales Supergoose, Mad River Extra Pale Ale, Harmon Point Defiance IPA, Pelican Seahops, Evil Twin Molotov, Rodenbach Grand Cru... would have loved a bit more variety of styles.
They have some bottles, including a $25 Mother of All Storms that is hard to pass up. No food, but they'll happily steer you towards a good place around the corner. Indeed, Le Voyeur right next door is a fine option for good sandwiches and craft beer (loved the tempeh cheesesteak and the vintage Old Stock).
I would revisit this bar, but I'm not sure I want to revisit Olympia.

I stopped at the Eastside Club while on a business trip in the Olympia area.
Atmosphere is a little seedy and rundown. No smells to speak of. I'm glad we have the smoking ban, or I suspect this place would be unbearable.
Quality was very good. A lot of quality bres from the region and up and down the west coast primarily.
Service was outstanding. The bar keep knew a lot about the beer and was willing to share information, even though he was very busy. The only real problem is the place is a cash only business. No plastic.
Selection was very good and varied. Only problem was it was hard to tell what was available. There was a lot to choose from, the taps were spread around the place and the selections and specials were written on various white boards behind the bar.
Food: N/A
Value is OK depending on what you have and what you like. I had a Pliny the Elder for $5.50 but there were others for $3.75. A daily special at $3.25.
The place reminded me a little of the Viking in Spokane. It's just a beer destination, or pool I guess. But you can find some stiff on tap, Russian River for instance, that is not real common in Washington.

Let me be real clear about this place. The beer selection here is absolutely outstanding and I plan to stop back whenever I'm in the area. That being said....
Visually, the ES club is nothing to write home about. The place looks a bit worn around the edges, and more than a bit run down. There's a longish bar to the right as you walk in, with pool tables and a ping pong table in the back. The place has a pretty stark vibe otherwise (there's a couple of TV''s and a jukebox as well), and atmosphere is never going to be this place's most remarkable feature. Still, it's a comfortable enough place to hang out with a beer or two, which was all I required. On the other hand, the ES club has over 40 beers on tap, and whoever does the selecting, he/she knows their stuff. Hop venom, RPM, Green flash DIPA and rye ale, hoprod rye, HUB imperial stout and the Lost Abbey Mayan apocolypse were some of the more impressive offerings I saw on the board (along with the 09 jolly roger). Told the girlfriend I said wow at least 5 times while looking over the offerings, which doesn't happen all that often any more. The beer selection is outstanding here, and as that's the main feature I care about whenever I look for a decent beer bar, it's a forgone conclusion that I'll be back again soon.... likely very soon. On the other hand....
Service was average at best, with the bartender just completely disinterested in waiting on customers it seemed (I thought maybe he had just woken up, but the GF noted that the tavern feels like a local's bar, and as we weren't locals....). When we walked in I asked about a food menu and whether he wanted my credit card after ordering my first beer.... all he said was we don't take tabs, we only take cash and we're not a restaurant. That's all true, but maybe a bit more info would be helpful (they have some sort of arrangement with the pizzeria next door, with a window in the back where you can order slizes - but not today, for whatever reason). So the bartender wasn't exactly a fountain of information (though he perked up a little bit when I asked about the Lost Abbey beer, and it became apparent I hadn't just fallen off the craft beer onion truck). Whatever... the positives so far outweigh the negatives of this place that it's laughable. Prices are just stupid good.... my pint of RPM was $3.75. That kind of pricing tends to make me a lot more tolerant about a few minor idiosyncracies. (Note: During happy hour, certain select beers are reduced down to $3 a pint. They also tend to run specials on other limited release select beers, and the last time I was there, the bartender indicated they are committed to offering at least one vintage beer at all times. It was the 09 Jolly Roger the first time I stopped by, and the 09 Stone imperial stout when I stopped by in 2/13. I was told that when that blows, they will feature the Black Butte XX. Pretty impressive, to say the least!)
Sure, this place is far from perfect, but the beer selection is just sooo good here. I'm guessing I'll be back, and likely sooner rather than later. Despite the indifferent service, this place is highly recommended.

I stopped in for a beer while in Olympia on business.
The Eastside is a local beer bar that has a comfortable atmosphere and a thorough selection of northwest and west coast beers. There were quite a few people in the place for a Wednesday evening and the crowd had a good energy. They have at least 30 on tap so it was a tough choice but I went with a Pliny the Elder. I enjoyed it but it didn't seem as fresh as others I've had.
The local beers were very reasonable but the less common ones were a bit pricier. The bartender was attentive, upbeat and knowledgeable.
The Eastside is well worth a visit if you're into northwest craft beer.

A: On 4th Ave downtown Oly you will find the East Side just a block away from the Fish Brewpub amongst plenty of dining. The clients inside are usually pretty cool, like any other place you're gonna run into wanna be beer know it alls and douchebags. However, I have never had a problem inside. Now outside is a different story..it seems that I am always have a panhandler in my face or someone acting a fool along the sidewalk but then again you can't control this either. Cash only! The ATM is usually broken so you better bring your own cash and be ready to go. Upfront you find some booth seating against the wall, dimly lit with a long narrow passageway leading to the back where you find games, pool tables ect. Plenty of seating at the 20 seat bar which greets you at the front and stretches midway to the back of the establishment. It can get crowded fast and I really like this place when its mid-day, low key.
Q: Always very good. I have yet to have a bad beer here; through poor selection or tainted kegs, dirty lines....
S: The service has been up and down for the couple of years I have been visiting. At one point in time when libbey was working the bar service was exceptional on his watch. Since his departure some old, new and mainstay servers have picked up and really provided obnoxious, abrasive and lazy service at times. I see a trend of less than caring, stellar service has extended to my friend and BA johnmichaelsen as well. The past couple of trips left me wondering if I were going to ever come back even I moved here. I may give the service one more shot, if not I may be visiting other places in Olympia.
S: Very good selection of West Coast beer ranging from a big variety of PNW goods and then some. Exceptional selection and they routinely have some really nice vintage stuff tapped.
F: No food sales here but if I recall you can order and bring it in with you. If not, there are plenty of places along 4th Ave to grab a bite.

Great place for people new to craft beer. The staff will gladly take he time to find something you like even on a busy Saturday night. They don't serve food but their is a place next door and they put in a little window so you can order in the bar. Lots of pool table and quite a bit of seating. It does get a little busy on the weekend for my tastes but still an all around good place. The service is great even when busy. You never have to wait to long for a beer. They have a great selection and constantly rotating it.

The Eastside Club has been my regular haunt in Olympia for longer than I care to remember. Ive probably been drinking there since the days I had to use a fake ID, probably 20 years or more. The place has a lot of personal history for me that includes a long roster of misty watercolored memories. (Cue music. No wait, dont cue music.)
The point of it is theres not too many places in this world you can run into folks youve known for twenty years. Theres fewer places still where you would want to run into folks youve known for twenty years. But the Eastside Club is one such place for me and I cant help but attach a lot of personal sentiment to the place.
All that aside, its a humble little joint; one might even call it grungy. Hell, Kurt Cobain used to live just five blocks from this place (on Pear Street). There are two beer boards behind the bar; one listing 17 regular taps, the other listing 15 seasonals. Theyre almost entirely northwest microbrews ranging no further than California with perhaps a Fat Tire thrown in for good measure. They take great pride in refusing to stock Bud or Coors here. If you need some swill, you can probably get a stubby of Oly (now brewed in Milwaukie or some such place). Theres no booze here but decent food service can be had through a window that opens to the café next door.
Mondays and Thursdays are cheap beer nights and they draw a crowd. Micro Monday, as they call it, used to feature $1.75 pints of great NW micro beers like Jolly Roger. Its probably up to $2.50 by now but still hard to complain. Youll find about 7 pool tables here, air hockey, ping-pong, video games, and a great jukebox. Theres also lots of hippy folk, revolutionaries, people you shouldnt lend money to, free wifi, and now free live music on Mondays. This is a great bar for reasons I hope you come to appreciate.

The Eastside Club is THE place to go in Olympia if you like GOOD beer at a reasonable price. Thursday nights are Thirsty Thursdays and they offer pints for $2.25 each. It used to be simply $2 a pint but... inflation and all... you know...
They have over 30 micros on tap and usually have the Deschutes Obsidian Stout on Nitrous! Very tasty! The menu is constantly changing so it's never boring to visit often. They maintain everything very well and I never have a bad pint poured for me. The staff are knowledgeable and friendly even during the busiest of times.
Food is available through a window in the back leading next door to the Clubside Cafe. The Clubside Cafe has the most authentic and tasty Philadelphia Cheesesteak Sandwiches in the northwest, and the rest of their menu is damned fine as well. Excellent grub to go with that can be ordered from the window. They hand you a nice little coaster that buzzes and vibrates when your order is up.
I highly recommend visiting the Eastside if you are in the area. It has lots of heritage, the best pool tables, a ping pong table, air hockey, a few arcade games, darts, nice people, great staff, and a whole ton of microbrew on tap. They even have a lot of stuff in bottle they will sell to go and they do growlers! Don't pass it up!

|million-dollar wound
Meaning: It is a military phrase: A million dollar wound is one that doesn't tear you apart but it takes you out of action for a few months and as a result may save your life. Bottom line. It gives you a brief and welcome respite from the horrors of war. For example, Forrest Gump said "I got shot in the buttox and they told me it was a million-dollar wound, but I haven't seen any of that money yet."

Drowning in the SkyEvery night my blanket turns into water. Waves that carry me throughout any dream I could ever imagine. My pillow becomes the moon and I'm resting on heaven. There's nothing like the feeling I get when my heart thumps out of my chest, and a million little feathers clog up my throat. I'm screaming that I want to fly but something will always be pulling me back down and telling me not to leave. I used to think that anchor was you. It's come to the point where I can't tell the difference between pain and pleasure and you're enjoyingEvery.Single.Moment.

her name was never spoken of again.I saw a bird flying in the sky today,The sky cringed with every beat of her wings.She was the epitome of strength until one day her wings grew silent,And she plummeted, plummeted to earth.I reached out my hand and placed it upon those wings,They were white and speckled with gold.I thought,This is a special bird, I must not let it die.So i took her in, this special bird.She was a kind of dove, but not quite.She was stubborn at first, always convinced she could fly on her ownShe didn't know she would never fly again."They clipped your wings, young dove." I said, "The gods clipped your wings."Her blue eyes stared straight back at me,And there wasn't a doubt in my mind that she couldn't understand,The shades of blue seemed to whisper, "Why?" "Because you flew too high, little one. And even gods experience jealousy."
I have hope.My life is hell.Well that's the nice way of putting it.Pure and utter hell,Since I was five years old.I'm almost sixteen nowAnd it's still hellEvery day my parents would beat me,Over the littlest mistakes.My best friend betrayed meAnd left me to suffer on my own.When my best friend left meSo did everyone else.I was all aloneBetrayed by everyone.So I think it's safe to sayMy childhood sucked.Now I am sixteen.I have a boyfriend;Everyone is against it thoughAnd I have no idea why.I love him, he gives me hope.Is that really so bad?He's the only oneWho fights for me.Why can't I be happy with him,And left alone to finally have something nice?Maybe there will be hope in the futureAnd maybe my hope won't be gone.I'll keep goingEven though my life is hardBecause that's all I haveI have hope.I have hope that the future will get betterHope that life is worth living forward.Even through everythingThere is still hope.
What if?If you always wonder and never act,you will never know the answer.That question is differentfor you than it is for me.You think of somethingthat I've never done.So the answer is differentfor you than it is for me.I am not the same as youso I've done something else.The experience is differentfor you than it is for me.I will always wonderand so will you do too.But the wonder is differentfor you than it is for me.
Heart's SuicideMy heart jumps out of my chestAnd dies on the floor.I just don't know what to do anymore.Is this love?Or just infatuation?I need to know because my heart is breaking.There's no one to blame but myself.Leaving so many things unsaid.Revealing me is what I dread.Playing it safe.Showing no emotion,Facing no rejection.Is that really how it works?It's like never staking a claim.But it's how I operate, and now I'm to blame.
This Is Me, Confused Yet?Im confused.My thoughts contradict themselves.I love you.I hate you.Life and death.Blood and knives.I love you.I hate you.Joy and sorrow.Shattered dreams.I love you.I hate you.Pained then numbed.Breathe in and take my breath away.I love you.I hate you.Fight and surrender.care and don't.Fear and be fearless.I love you.I hate you.This is me,confused yet?
All aloneWhat do you do, when all that you loved, has abandoned you? When everyone who was supposed to always be there for you, are no longer there? When you can hear nothing but your own breathing and see nothing but the darkness stretching on in front of you?What do you do, when you are truly Alone?

TearsI know my heart is breakingI don't know how to save ittears roll down my facewashing me away.I know my mask is breakingThe ribbons wore awaypaint drips down my faceleaving me exposed.I know my heart is brokenI know I'll fade awayI know my tears are emptyI just don't know why.
It's rainingThe rain is falling downlike my tearsThe music is poundinglike my bleeding heartYou broke it tonightI trusted you with itand you throw it away, just to step on itYou are a killerI'm the killers little teddy bearbut you shall not cry over the sun when it's goneSo I let the rain wash away the pain in my eyesI let the tears fall together with my broken heartYou can have it, I don't want it anymoreI let the wind shake my hair aroundbecause you shouldn't cry over the sun when it's gone...
WildfiresThere is a certainKind of secret,That once caught,The temptation toThrow caution to the wind,And pass alongThe knowledge to anotherIs almost unbearable.However, in my past experience,It is best that oneNot start such wildfires.
Lost in Timesometimes i feel as if i was born in another timeand thrown into this centuryI speak slightly different than othersAnd find no interest in the feeble things so many doI dream in black in whiteAnd haven't given up on soaring through the worldI live side by side with painAnd we've become acquaintancesA frown is more natural than a smileIt's simply the way I was made to beNow tell me, is that really so bad?

Five companies are making a capital investment totaling $4.6 million dollars. The five companies combined will have new or increased payroll of $2.5 million dollars.
"In this day and age with the national and world economy like it is, to have five companies creating jobs and capital investment is very important," says LEDA Director Kenny McKay
The five companies making new jobs are: Caprock Manufacturing, Sun-Star Electric, National Sorghum Producers, Venus Decorative Hardware, and All-State Distributors.

Trimble axed from Ireland squad
ESPN Staff
January 27, 2013
There is no room for Ulster winger Andrew Trimble in Ireland's Six Nations training squad © Getty Images
Ulster winger Andrew Trimble is the surprise omission from Ireland's 33-man training squad for their Six Nations opener against Wales in Cardiff on Saturday.
Trimble, capped 49 times, was a key figure for Ireland throughout last year before being dropped for his side's final end of year international against Argentina in favour of provincial team-mate Craig Gilroy. The 28-year-old was handed a chance to force his way back into the reckoning in the Ireland Wolfhounds' clash with England Saxons on Friday night but clearly did not do enough to impress coach Declan Kidney.
Eleven players who featured in the Wolfhounds' 14-10 defeat to the Saxons are in the selection mix including Connacht centre Dave McSharry and Ulster fly-half Paddy Jackson who both suffered minor knocks in that game. Props Michael Bent, David Kilcoyne, Declan Fitzpatrick and Tom Court are all included in the squad along with Luke Fitzgerald, Iain Henderson, Kevin McLaughlin, Mike Sherry and Devin Toner.
Kidney will name his match-day squad for the Millennium Stadium showdown on Tuesday afternoon.

The stock Google Calendar app gets the job done, sure, but don't you ever want something a little more powerful? Today Calendar is out of beta today, so maybe it's your next stop. This app is based on the AOSP calendar, but developer Jack Underwood made a lot of tweaks in the name of improving the look and features.
Music discovery app Shazam has always been a bit stylish by Android standards, but today's update adds both some more modern visual polish and notable usability upgrades. In particular, the auto-scrolling lyric function has been improved in version 2.6: it now supports a more natural portrait layout and much more readable text, doing away with the funky word art. Auto-scroll isn't universal, but when it works it's pretty neat. That should be a boon to your impromptu karaoke sessions.
Until Android Wear comes to consumers, Pebble is going to continue to have the most robust app ecosystem of any wearable device. Music Boss is a particularly impressive app for the Pebble. It connects to your phone to control music playback with the Pebble's built-in buttons. The most recent update streamlines the process a bit by properly detecting what's going on with the phone.
So, Aereo's streaming TV service is pretty cool. It re-broadcasts standard over-the-air television signals to your mobile device, assuming you live in one of the coverage areas. If you want to enjoy your incredibly convenient TV Xzibit-style, and put your TV in your TV (set), you'll soon be able to. According to a new press release, the Aereo app will add support for Google Chromecast on May 29th. Hooray!
Of course, that assumes that Aereo's $8-a-month subscription service is still around at that point.
According to Chainfire, the night mode and color adjustment features from Chainfire3D and the original CF.lumen Gingerbread apps are frequently requested. So frequent, in fact, that they're back for KitKat+ devices as CF.lumen on the Play Store.
If you've ever used f.lux for your PC, you know basically what to expect here - color temperature adjustments based on the time of day, bringing tones more in line with your eyes' expectations when the sun goes down.
Time keeps marching forward, and Google keeps improving the mobile version of its Chrome browser. Those who want to see the new goodies before everyone else can check out the official Chrome for Android Beta, which updates to version 35 today. The official changelog mentions some interesting additions, including at least one that was there already: support for Chromecast on HTML5 videos.
Videos on your device have gotten better too, with better HTML5 controls and subtitle support (for those clips that include them).
Amazon already owns the most popular brand for ebooks, having debuted the Kindle ages ago and attracted consumers and publishers alike before other big players managed to establish a foothold in the industry. Now the company's going after comics. It could continue to expand its library of Kindle editions, but the speedier approach would be the buy the best competitor out there. So that's what Amazon is doing. The company has just announced plans to acquire comiXology, the makers of a popular digital comics platform, not to mention a couple of great Android comic book reading apps.
Late last year, Gmail started showing images by default in a way that Google says doesn't compromise general security. Now Yahoo has released an update for its Android mail app that does precisely the opposite. Now those pesky images are blocked by default (or is the story here... that they weren't already?).
The option to toggle this is tucked away in the app settings, so there's nothing stopping users from going back to living wild and free.

Nicest staff you could hope forPosted 28-Sep-2013
The hotel was once the place to stay but is in great need of renovation. My bed was sagging in the middle and the first set of sheets were so old that they looked permenantly grubby, my wife would not have slept in them. They changed to white sheets midweek which looked fine. I wish I had known to ask at the start. The staff were lovely and tried to sort me out but the alternative rooms were no better.

The staff are polite, friendly and efficient. The rooms and amenities are spotlessly clean. The location is as central as you can be in a city without a clear centre. This main avenue is well populated with cafes, bars and restaurants, and is in walking distance of the main shopping centre. The only downside was the quality of the furniture in the bedrooms, in contrast to the excellence of the apartments. Like a great aunty, she is magnificent and historic, and should be forgiven a little wear on the edges. Our company has used this hotel three times this year, and it has satisfied us and all the international partners we bring there. We will continue to us the Grand

We had a marvelous stay. The weather was very bad, very cold and snowing but the hotel was warm and very comfortable. Breakfasts were excellent and the staff, including the bar staff, were very pleasant and helpful. Our room was a little old fashioned but then the price per night was very good value.

"beautiful resolution, super fast delivery, 2nd time I have ordered from tiny prints, I am very impressed! I love that you have overseas delivery!"
"I couldn't have been more pleased with this product. It is awesome - quality, color and delivery. Perfect! The name of the card is "Beyond Happy" and that sums up my rating!"
"A very simple, classic design! I had 3 sets of photos that I was considering for the card...a sporting event, a black tie event and a graduation. I had a hard time deciding which to use as this design works with everything! I am very happy with the finished card and received great feedback."
"Received my order in less than 48 hours and also a call from the design artist with a follow up proof. I would highly recommend Tiny Prints and will use them exclusively from now on because of their wonderful customer service - a rare find these days!"
"I ordered this card with the upgraded thick paper stock. I was hoping that it would be substantial and it was! The photo reproduced beautifully. The only area I was a little disappointed was where we added our individual names. I love the font which was somewhat ornate but I was limited in size. While it was legible, it reproduced small and somewhat faint...minor in the whole scheme of things. Overall, I am quite satisfied."

Updated On: Dec 20 2012 09:46:24 AM CST
A man dressed as the video game character Super Mario is accused of groping a woman in New York City's Times Square.
Street performer Damon Torres, 34, was charged with forcible touching after police said he blocked the path of a 58-year-old woman and grabbed her thigh, The Associated Press reported.
"He walked up to her and touched her private parts," a Times Square security guard told the New York Daily News. "She said she had similar encounters with the character. She said she was offended."
The woman reported the incident to police, who arrested Torres.
He has also been charged with marijuana possession.
Torres' video game brother, Luigi, was nowhere to be found.

James Lopez is a veteran Disney animator (The Lion King, Pocahontas, Paperman) who is trying to raise funding for his primarily hand-drawn short film, Hullabaloo, with hopes of eventually finding a studio to fund a full-length version.
From the film's IndieGo page:
Hullabaloo is the story of Veronica Daring, a brilliant young scientist who returns home from an elite finishing school to find her father—the eccentric inventor Jonathan Daring—missing without a trace! The only clue left behind points Veronica toward Daring Adventures, an abandoned amusement park used by her father to test his fantastical steam-powered inventions. There she discovers a strange girl named Jules, a fellow inventor who agrees to help Veronica in locating her missing father and discovering the secrets of his work.
In addition to helping save 2D animation, Hullabaloo aims to encourage girls to explore science and adventure. The film's two protagonists are both young women and both scientists who use their intellect, wits, and courage to fight greed and corruption. We hope that Veronica Daring and her friend Jules will serve as positive role models for girls of all ages and encourage them to get excited about science, engineering, and sci-fi.

The Mokin are a group in Thailand that are nomadic and have a sea-based culture.
In the sea there is less light, so usually one's iris will dilate. But the Mokin have an adaption where instead of dilating, they constrict as much as possible.
This allows them to see with much better clarity. Recent studies suggest that any child can quickly learn this trick. It exemplifies how well our brain adapts to our environment.

Podcast - David Skarica on the Expanding Stock Market Bubble - Mike Swanson (08/29/2014)By Mike Swanson on Fri, 08/29/2014 - 10:09
The title of Dave's book begs the question when will the stock market drop?
The title of Dave's book begs the question when will the stock market drop?
Art Cashin was on CNBC today talking about how the rally has low volume and he doesn't like it.
Now ISIS hits American TV with the death of an American journalist, but there is no context or explanation of how this group came to be on our TV screens.
I think what we are going to see is a new trading range for the mining stocks for a few weeks...
"We're looking at the involvement of the Gulf states, which have really empowered these groups over time and increased their ability to operate. They've increased their arms, logistical trading. So we've had the Saudis engaged in funding these groups in Syria."
Art Cashin talks on CNBC about Janet Yellen and her speech today in which she said absolutely nothing.
I just interviewed Jordan Roy-Byrne of thedailygold.com about the coming few weeks in gold and mining stocks. I wanted to talk with him because of two interesting articles he wrote showing why he believes September is going to be a critical month for both gold prices and the stocks that mine gold.
Robert Schiller who invented the CAPE ratio says in this interview on CNBC that everything in the US stock market is pricey and bonds are trading now at "bizarre" levels.
After I retired from the hedge fund world I setup this website and blog. If you sign up for my free weekly email list I'll send you an update on average about once a week on my views of the stock market and share with you actionable investment ideas.
Now I cannot promise you that every stock I find will go up in value. I can't promise you endless 100% returns as others claim they do and as all the disclaimers say past performance does not necessarily predict future performance and you can lose all of your money in the stock market.
This is reality.
What I can promise you is my dedication to doing the best I can for you.

Once you sign up to my newsletter I'll send you a series of educational videos and writings showing you how I use stop-loss orders to cut any potential losses and how I use my two fold formula system that combines fundamental and technical analysis to pick stocks. My goal is to risk one dollar to try to make at least three dollars in my trades by looking for stocks that are priced cheaply on a valuation basis, have high earnings growth, and have excellent chart patterns.

My newsletter isn't just about stock picks and trading strategies- my real priority is to educate you on how to be a winner investor and trader in the financial markets.
Stock Market News - Every day there are dozens of stock market stories that the financial media focuses on and thousands they don't talk about. I keep my pulse on the market and discuss only the news items that you need to know about to save you time and make you money.
