It's the most talked about player of the entire NFL, whose coach played the past decade with our Carolina Panthers, against GC Coverboy Mark Sanchez and the most talked about coach of the entire NFL. I was hoping CSR would put up an open thread (not sure why they didn't!!!?), but here we go!
First drive... what a great offense Denver just ran. Wonder if it will keep up. Denver defense puts the stop, and Jets screw up the punt. That's all I've seen so far.
So, sound off, and let's hear who everyone's going for!

WOW - "My husband gave me this stunning 1 ct. ring for Christmas in celebration of our 33rd wedding anniversary, which was so appropriate with the 3-diamond mounting. It sparkles to no end with the many baguettes and smaller channel-set diamonds. Beautiful ring and is extremely comfortable to wear. It's a show-stopper and I could not be happier." - Vettemama
Gorgeous Ring at a Great Price! - "I was in love with this ring the minute I saw it in the store and told my then-boyfriend it was the one! He bought it during a sale so we got it for even less, and proposed to me with it New Year's Day. It is STUNNING! The diamonds look huge and sparkle so much in the sun. I've gotten so many compliments on it and even older family members tell me it's nicer than any ring they've ever had!" - AKLB8883
Too beautiful for words - "My husband surprised me last week with the 2 ct. t.w. version of this ring. He got down on one knee and asked me if I would marry him, again! Then he whipped out this gorgeous ring! I immediately started crying, as this ring is too beautiful for words. And compliments galore on the ring. Prepare yourself for strangers coming up to you and taking your hand to get a closer look. I absolutely love it!!" - MarineMom89
So beautiful! - "I received this as an engagement ring (TODAY!) and I am absolutely in love with it! I have rather small hands, and so it fits in perfectly. It is delicate and feminine and graceful. The diamonds are really sparkly. If you are wanting something with a really big diamond, don't get this, but if you want something affordable and lovely, I would definitely consider this! I am so in love with this ring!" - BekENGAGED

4.1/5 rDev -3.5%
Pours black with a thin brown head that decends to wisps, leaving spots of lacing. Very dark, but a bit lacking in retention/lacing.
The smell is of coffee, chocolate, smoky/roasty a but nutty and toffeeish with earthy, even citric, bitterness. A dark malt aroma with a hop backing and roast/ash.
The taste is rich - roasty/ashy with coffee and sweet chocolate. There is a bittering and roasty balance. There's a touch of astringency and some alcohol in the taste. My bottle says 6.5 abv and while not overwhelming, it shows. It finishes warm and dry. Not crazy about the aftertaste.
Reaches full-bodied, but not overly thick. A bit solvent. Sharp though with some creaminess. I had two bottles - the first of which I let warm longer before drinking. It had a bit of a fuller body, though neither one convinced me to push the score of the mouthfeel higher.
It is rich and dark with a nice balancing bitterness to the sweetness. It has a great aroma. Drinkable - but alcohol shows and something of a cardboard-ish coffee aftertaste lingers.
Bottom line - A rich American porter with a great aroma. I liked it much, though not too crazy about the aftertaste. Drinkable, though only borderline "sessionable", esp. with richness, alcohol of 6.5 showing a bit, and not the greatest of aftertastes. Still, a nice example of a rich American porter!

Moderate tan head, but it lasts. Leaves generous lace on the glass. So dark (brown, near black), I could not see any light shine through.
Chalky, chocolate milk aroma. Light bitterness in the background.
My first impression is "rustic". There's a little bit of everything here without the smoothness of a well-blended brew. I like that. Lots of hop finish that does blend nicely with bitter black patent malt. Good body, almost chewy, but lots of balancing carbonation. A complex porter, worthy of each sip while wondering each nuance of flavor. Another winner from the guys at Founders.

Appearance: pours a dark brown almost black color with a two finger tan colored head. Some lacing develops.
Smell: roasted malts, chocolates, and milder coffee tones rise from the glass.
Taste: big roasted malt profile with dark chocolate, hints of coffee, some prune sweetness, and decent bitterness.
Mouthfeel: lightly crisp to start, smooth to finish. Medium-heavy in body which is a bit heavier than the standard porter. Aftertaste is short.
Drinkability: easy to quaff but somewhat filling. Nice flavorful beer.

$2.29 at the Four Firkins. 12 fl oz brown glass bottle with standard pressure cap served into a shitty hotel highball glass in Minneapolis, Minnesota. Reviewed live. Expectations are through the roof. I love this brewery.
Served after a warming period following its removal from the refrigerator. Side-poured with standard vigor as no carbonation issues are anticipated.
A: Pours a one finger beautiful tan colour head of very nice luscious cream, great thickness, and good retention for the relatively high ABV. Colour is a solid nontransparent black. No yeast particles are visible. No bubble show.
Sm: Assertive coffee, coffee bitterness, dark malts, cream, and caramel. Minimal detectable hops. A strong assertive aroma. Biting bitterness. No yeast or alcohol is detectable.
T: Strong assertive coffee bitterness, a dark malt foundation, cream up front, caramel, dark chocolate, mild hop bitterness (but in a balanced sense), and more of that chilled strong coffee. A well balanced if overly assertive flavour profile. I like it. One of the ballsier porters I've had in a long time.
Mf: Smooth, wet, a touch thin. Good if understated carbonation. Suits the flavours well.
Dr: A good beer for iced coffee lovers. And it's a porter for a reason; it doesn't drink like a senselessly smooth wannabe stout. Another solid brew from Founder's, and definitely one I'd have again - especially on draught. Well priced for the high quality. That said, Founders has better beers at this price point (namely Breakfast Stout).
I wouldn't age this. Drink fresh or fairly fresh.
Would pair well with bitter chocolate or mild nuts.
*I've adjusted the overall score to get the letter grade I want in order to keep my reviews fair and consistent. Please see my profile for more information.

Pours pitch black and completely opaque without even the slightest hint of lighter color when held to a light and a one finger beige head that quickly fades into a lasting ring. Sporadic spots of lace left behind.
Nice roasted malt aroma with hints of bittersweet dark chocolate, oatmeal, toffee and roasted coffee/espresso bean. Smokey but not acrid or burnt smelling with subtle lactic/cream and even some hazelnut. Beautiful roasted coffee in the nose that isn't overly powerful, burnt or stale. Smells great!
Chewy medium body with lots of roasted malt, slight hops, sweet chocolate and a lingering dry finish. Deep roasted coffee/espresso bean flavor along with hints of chocolate, toffee and oatmeal. A bit more acrid/burnt tasting than the aroma suggested with bittersweet dark chocolate, toffee, oatmeal and nut. Subtle bitter dry hops toward the end of the palate with a dry finish. A bit too roasted for my preference with bitterness lingering throughout but still pretty drinkable with a nice lactic creamy flavor mid-palate that gives balance and adds to the mouthfeel. It could use a bit of sweetness to round things out but overall this is a very good representation of the style.

12 oz bottle poured into a nonic.
Pours a syrupy, almost black opaque liquid with a thick, retentive coffee colored head that leaves a lot of lacing. Aroma is very rich, dark chocolate, roast malt, coffee, etc. Body is light, but syrupy, with a high amount of carbonation and similar flavors as aroma, dark chocolate, light coffee, roasted malt and a strong hop presence in the finish. Compares very well to Edmund Fitzgerald, one of my favorites porters and offerings from Founders.

Purchased in New York, brought back to Sydney and shared with @LaitueGonflable and @tobeerornottobe.
Pours a very deep, murky almost-black, frizzled brown at the edges. Head poured dark and solid to begin with, but settles to a mild film of chocolatey brown. Body is very pleasantly firm and thick, and forms some nice fine carbonation when tilted. Overall, it's a decent looking brew, but not a spectacular one.
It's all uphill from there though. Big roasted, sweet/savoury notes on the nose, giving dark coffee, brown bread crust and a hint of red wine tannins. This is all smoothed with a mild malt sweetness and the suggestion of vanilla. Lovely blend, and while still rather mild and subdued, it makes for a very pleasant aroma.
Taste is similarly pleasant. Roasted notes form the basis, but these are assuaged by a mild milk sweetness and more of those vanilla overtones. Slight hint of leather on the aftertaste, along with a cleansing, but not prominent hop bitterness. Smooth and luxurious on the palate, while maintaining fluidity.
A really nice beer, and probably a holotypical American Porter. It's well made and solidly believable. Great drop.

Served on-tap at Shady McGrady's during a recent Happy Hour trip.
A - Pours dark brown, bordering on black, with a nice one and a half finger tall tan head leaving spotty patches of lace down most of the glass.
S - Smells of robust dark roasted malts, bittersweet chocolate, coffee grounds, dark fruits and some black licorice. Nothing too over the top here, very nice balance.
T - Starts off with plenty of dark roast - both from the malt and the coffee - slowly giving way to some sweetness from the chocolate and dark fruits. The balance of sweet to roast is fairly well done, the roast does become a bit overbearing as it warms but not too bad. Finish is roasty, lingering on the pallet long after consumption.
M - Heavy body and flavor with moderate carbonation. The dark flavors are strong in this one, lingering on the pallet long after the finish.
O - Definitely one of the better American Porters out there. This one packs plenty of flavor and was very easy to drink. Glad I got this one.

Picked up a single at Abe's Cold Beer. This is a heck of a porter, reminds me of a slightly drier Anchor Porter (which I also love). This beer just blasts dry, dark, rich chocolate, with a coffee roast edge to it. There's a cocoa liquor accent in the background, along with a undercurrent of dark bread and whole grain crust. There's nothing small about this porter, though that holds back the drinkability of the brew. As much as I dig this beer, I probably couldn't drink more than a few in one session. Still, go find this beer and drink it.

A lovely very balanced porter, dry and toasty and very balanced- doesn't try to be a stout. Smells dry, slightly toasty, and with quite a bit of unsweetened licorice. Th taste is similar. perfectly balanced roastiness, dry licorice, and a nice dose of spicy hops that complement rather than overwhelm the other flavors. The mouthfeel is substantial, a bit spicy, quite dry, and very satisfying. A very pleasant winter quaffer that doesn't overdo it either in alcohol or in your face flavors, but offers a still substantial flavor packed and satisfying brew. Just like a porter should be.

Growler our from DeCicco's in Ardsley, NY. Pours dark, dark mahogany with dark ruby highlights. The head is puny, and fairly short lived, going to a loose and bubbly thicker collar, very dark tan. :eaves fine and widely scattered fields of lacing. Dark chocolate infuses the nose, dusty and slightly chalky. Densely flavorful and aggressively styled porter. Plenty of dark chocolate, figs and other ripe dark fruits, woody/whiskey/smokey chords are also lightly hit. Big and brawn, full flavor porter, good stuff.

Pours black in color with a finger of darkly tanned head. Decent retension and a nice layer of lace all around the glass. Nose is burnt grains with chocolate and coffee notes. End of the aroma has a bit of citrus hops. Taste is drying bitter chocolate upfront with a nice burnt grain profile throughout the really smooth feel/body. Light feel and low moderate carbination with this porter. Lingering taste of burnt grain and bitter chocolate is left in the mouth that forces you to dive right back in for another sip. Little bit of citrus hop bitterness is hidden behind the bitterness of the burnt grain. The warmth of the alcohol starts to hit you about half way through the glass. Somewhat of a dry finish to this but overall a really good porter.

A: Pours an opaque jet black in color with some very light amounts of visible carbonation at the edges of the glass. The beer has a finger tall dark mocha head that reduces to a uniform thick film covering the entire surface of the beer. Significant lacing is observed.
S: Moderate aromas of dark roasted malts with much lighter hints of chocolate, coffee, and dark fruits.
T: This is a very well balanced beer - there is enough malt sweetness to accomodate the bitterness. Flavors of dark roasted malts, chocolate, coffee, and dark fruits. There is a light lingering bitterness in the finish.
M: Medium to full bodied with moderate amounts of carbonation. Smooth and slightly dry in the finish.
O: Very easy to drink and very enjoyable. I really like the mouthfeel and if it was just a little lower in ABV, this would be a real session beer. I would definitely get this one again.

A 12 oz stubby bottle from a trade with mcallister.
A: The porter is heavily carbonated, erupting with a 3 plus finger head on initial pour and requiring 4 pours to empty the bottle into a standard pint glass. The porter's body is dark and murky, with no lighter colors emerging.
S: The nose has elements of chocolate, molasses, caramel and coffee, all mixing together to create a dry warming aroma.
T: Drinking the ale is like eating chocolate cake, rich and luxurious. The chocolate mixes with coffee flavors to create a sweet bitter body, full of dark notes. Molasses notes add a scorched-earth bitterness that leads to a nice finish.
M: The body, despite the plethora of bigger flavors, is smooth and creamy. It is surprisingly light on the palate.
D: The low abv and well-meshed flavors make this a surprisingly good drink, one that won't overwhelm the tastebuds but will leave you satisfied.

(Served in a Nonic)
A- This beer pours a jet black body that is almost inky and supports a dark brown head that is thick and creamy lasting most of the beer. The beer is to dense to see much carbonation except for a few time bubbles sliding up the glass.
S- This beer has a full aroma of dark coffee roasted malt with some rich qualities to it and a finish of dark baker's chocolate that come through more when the beer warms. There is a silky quality to the roasted malt aswell.
T- The taste of dark roasted malt has a nice lighter roasted malt flavor underneath with a light cream flavor to support it. The finish has a soft hop prick with some roasted bitterness lingering a bit as the beer warms.
M- This beer has a medium-light mouthfeel with no alcohol heat and a very subtle fizz support in the finish.
D- This beer is great to the style. Good roasted flavors and just a touch of hop support. I would love to try this beer on cask and see how much the depth could grow even more.

At Tuesday night's State of the Union address, President Obama proposed a raise in the nation's minimum wage from $7.25 to $9 an hour and there's been quick reaction by employers and workers.
"Let's declare that, in the wealthiest nation on Earth, no one who works full-time should have to live in poverty," President Obama announced in his address. But some people 12News spoke with Wednesday say you need to look at more than the dollar
Rich Corville, owner of Corville's Catering and Special Events in Beaumont, has been in business for 17 years. He says there are other costs that come with that potential pay increase that employers will be responsible for.
"When payroll increases, yeah that's good for the worker, it's good for the employee, but the employer gets double, sometimes triple. Your payroll goes up so does you payroll taxes, so does your unemployment taxes."
Everyone we talked to says that the costs of employment will be passed on to every consumer. So for instance grocery stores have to pay employees more. That gallon of milk that is $3.78 a gallon will take even more of your money.
Derrick Barber with express employment professionals places employees in temporary positions.
"A lot of businesses are seeing a crunch right now with increased taxes they are afraid to hire, with health care and things like that."
He says because of that, he's seen an increase in those hiring his temporary employees..
"You adjust to it and you move on."

By Cade Fowler - bio | email ALBANY, GA (WALB) – The city of Albany is a step closer to reopening the downtown skate park that's been closed for months.
The Albany Dougherty Inner City Authority finalized a management contract Wednesday which they'll offer to Lane Rosen.
He'll be able to operate the park rent-free for four months and then pay $200 a month for the next 8 months.
ADICA board members aren't worried about making a profit.
They just want to see the park open.
"This move is about getting the park open and it's something for the kids to do and having the park open to the community. This has nothing to do with ADICA making any money," says Phil Cannon, ADICA Board Member.
If Rosen agrees to the contract, he'll take over July 1st.
The city hopes to open the skate park in the next few days under temporary management of the recreation department.

Thanks for the recommendation. I went there with my friend tonight. She had the hot and I had the Tiger Pride, which was kind of a combination of hot and a sweetish bbq sauce and really tasty. We also got an order of cheese fries with it. They were good but probably had too much cheese. It was fun!ReplyDelete
awesome! and you're welcome. were the wings as big and crispy as I experienced?ReplyDelete

They now own the Island Grille on Wheeling Island, which used to be Hurricane Herk's. The wings are still 10 for $5.50 and they are delicious! Some of the best in the valley. The Tiger Pride sauce is Island Pride there... My friend and I get an order each of their hot and their Mr. Miyogi, which is like a sweetish tangy Chinese sauce and then share them. So good! So if you don't want to drive clear to Shadyside, you can get the same great food on Wheeling Island.ReplyDelete

So ESPN is asking if Coaches make the program, or do Programs make the coaches. In which they took the winningest coach in program history, subtracted his record, from the overall record, and noticed the difference it made.
For Utah they went with Ike Armstrong, and when his 141-55-15 record was removed, it saw Utah's win percentage drop a healthy 27 points (.590 to .563).
But it got me thinking, how do we rate success? How do we determine the Utes best coach. Ike Armstrong is a solid choice. He Coached the Utes for the most games (211), most years (25), and has the most wins (141).
Percentage wise, Urban has is the best with an outstanding .917. For Coaches who coached more than 2 years Joe Maddock's .750 narrowly edges Whit's .725. Ike had a .704.
But what about intangibles. Does era effect how you think about a coach. Is Maddock's .750 as impressive as Whit's current .725, and does Whit get some bonus as the best coach, considering the transition he has helped overseen.
And then, what about the only other coach outside of Armstrong to coach 100 games for Utah. Old Coach Mac himself. It's been written many times, about the frustrating nature of some of those teams, but there's absolutely no denying what Mac meant to this program. (By the Way, Whit joins the 100 game club on November 3rd, in a home game against Washington State, so make sure we let him know our appreciation.)
So I ask you, Who was Utah's best coach? Which coach "made the program"? For me, I can see the argument for Ike, even if the eras were a bit different, but Whit is hot on his heels. As for which coach made the program, to me, it's still Mac.

With the temperatures expected to drop into the 20's overnight, many of the homeless people in the area will seek shelter at the Hattiesburg Salvation Army's Center of Hope.
The center has 43 beds with a segregated men's and women's side. There is also room for children. Those who go to the shelter will be fed dinner and breakfast.
The shelter opens each evening at 5:00, but has a policy where they keep it open 24 hours a day when the temperature falls below 45-degrees.
"Whenever it gets to be really cold we do have a big turnout of those who are homeless who come through the door seeking shelter," said Captain Francis Gillian, Hattiesburg Salvation Army. "We certainly encourage if anyone is needing shelter to get away from the cold to come to the Center of Hope an we'll have a bed for you."
The Salvation Army warming center and shelter in Laurel is also open overnight for those wanting to get out of the cold.

Judge spots familiar face in court; man accused of threats to kill state and federal judges is held
Posted Feb 12, 2014 1:50 PM CDT
By Martha Neil
Concerned about safety after he was told a convicted felon wanted for probation violation had threatened to kill him, a Minnesota judge pulled and studied the man's mug shots and gave them to family members.
So when Peter Okezie Kalu walked into the 13th-floor courtoom of Ramsey County District Judge George Stephenson on Monday, the judge immediately recognized him, reports the Star-Tribune.
"I asked him to sit down, he walked out of the courtroom and I directed one of the deputies to bring him back inside," recounted Stephenson the following day. Kalu, at that point, was facing a new charge of making terroristic threats.
Kalu was unarmed but carrying a black bag, the newspaper says. In it, a note allegedly stated: "Some idiot by the name of George T. Stephenson has signed out a warrant for my arrest. You have hurt me with no regards to my feelings. I will hurt you back. I will kill you. … I will gun you down in front of everybody before I turn myself [in] to the mental hospital."
Originally convicted of mail theft by another judge, Kalu didn't contact his probation officer as required and a warrant for his arrest was signed by Stephenson. A criminal complaint says Kalu told probation officials that he intended to kill both Stephenson, for signing the arrest warrant, and a federal judge who had recently denied him benefits, the Star-Tribune reports.
The article doesn't include any comment from Kalu. He is scheduled to be arraigned on Wednesday.

Eight O'Clock Original Whole Bean Coffee Review
Recently, while searching for a less expensive alternative to my favorite locally roasted coffee, I came upon some very favorable reviews for the brand Eight O'Clock. At $5.99 for a 12oz bag it is the least expensive whole been coffee available at my local grocer and claims to be 100% Arabica Coffee. At about $.20/ounce cheaper than my usual brand it offers pretty good value price wise, but how does it taste?
To find out, I've brought a bag of Eight O'Clock Original whole bean coffee home with me and fired up the kettle. Here are my findings.
Right off the bat I've encountered a problem with the bag. At first, it seems like any ordinary vacuum sealed coffee bag but there is one glaring difference: It's not heat sealed. The manufacturer has used glue to seal the top of the bag. A good vacuum valve coffee bag has a heat sealed strip that one must cut off. This is necessary to keep coffee beans fresh when they may be sitting on the grocer's shelf for weeks. This glued bag pulled apart a little too easily and didn't appear to make a complete seal. Though the date on the bag states "BEST WHEN USED BY 01/23/13″ I wasn't confident about what I'd find when I when I opened it. Turns out my worries were not unfounded.
The beans appeared slightly chalky with only the slightest oily sheen to the surface. The aroma emanating from the beans was also underwhelming. Dull, weak, and one-note. Just what you'd expect from a bag of beans opened several weeks ago, not a newly opened bag. At this point I wasn't expecting miracles from the brew but went on ahead anyway.
- French press
- Filtered water heated to 204F
- Ground medium-fine right before steeping
- Steeped for just under 4 minutes
At first sip mouth feel takes notice. Thin and watery. The aroma, again, is dull and lacks complexity. Same goes for flavor. This coffee is highly acidic, leaving a tang along with a stale, slightly rancid aftertaste. The overall flavor profile reminds me quite a lot of a light to medium roast Folgers coffee, but Eight O'Clock Original is more aggressively acidic.
So, what's the deal? Why the favorable reviews, the "better than Starbucks" claims, of this rancid, acidic coffee? Well, I went hunting for reviews again and found something interesting over at CoffeeReview.com. The host's review (from 2002) states "Low-toned but complex. A floral sweetness is supported by a slightly roasty pungency and a touch of mustiness, the agreeable kind that gives weight and character to the cup and hints at dry chocolate." Completely incongruent with my findings, and rightly so as more recent user reviews reveal.
One of the user reviews states:
"I have used Eight O'Clock coffee beans for years and believe it WAS the best coffee going for the price. I recently purchased a bag with their "new look with the same great taste". Don't believe it. It was the worst cup of coffee I have ever brewed and the first cup I have not been able to drink."
Other reviews are much the same. So, as it turns out my gripes about the bag were apt, but not for the same reasons. It seems that in recent years the people at Eight O'Clock have let the quality of their beans slip.
I would grade this coffee a D+ and would not purchase it again. I'll likely be calling the 800 number on the bag to request a refund.
Thanks for reading. Tell me about your favorite bargain coffee brands in the comments!
In 2005 the Eight O'Clock Coffee brand was purchased by Indian coffee company Tata Coffee. We can safely assume that this is the cause for the drastic drop in quality. Previously, Eight O'Clock coffee was a house brand of A&P Supermarkets, a subsidiary of The Great Atlantic & Pacific Tea Company

FORT MYERS: The "stingray shuffle" is something people typically do on the beach between May and October. But beachgoers are quickly learning they'll have to start shuffling early.
Stingrays have been spotted along Southwest Florida's shores - from Fort Myers beach to Naples.
But scientists with FWC say the stingray is actually there year round, but become more prevalent when the water gets warmer.
The best way to avoid them is to shuffle.
"When you slide your feet through the water, you can get your foot underneath the stingray and that way you don't step on them. When you step on them, it's their defense mechanism to get away so they sting you," explained beachgoer Cole Strinson.
But if you are stung, experts say you should apply heat right away and clean it out. And if the barb is still in the wound, you should see a doctor.

3.35/5 rDev +25.9%
Bottle: standard 330mL green bottle with a better-than-average macro label.
Appearance: just about right for a pilsener - light-to-mid golden amber with a steady stream of carbonation and a limited head that settles to a film.
Aroma: a strong smell of bitter grains, with little in the way of hops to counter it.
Taste: a pleasant surprise after the aroma. The bitterness has been replaced by a slightly sweet grain and some floral and grass hops. Quite nice, and certainly refreshing.
Aftertaste: both the floral hops and sweet grains linger quite nicely. This is a good sessional, but could also be had quietly over a good conversation.
Mouth feel: light-to-medium in body with perfect carbonation for the style. Easy drinking - certainly goes down well with food or by itself.
Overall: not a bad beer at all. If you compare it to the standard XXXX, VB and New - which you can since they are all roughly the same price - I think this one takes the cake. Not the greatest beer in the world, but it never sets out to be. A good all-rounder.

A decent Aussie premium, with at least abit of hop and malt character, still, only reserved for suits with a deep pocket who don't like to "taste" their beer.

I haven't been a big fan of this sort of lager, but I've had far better than this. Almost a hint of rice taste. It was a bit stinky at first. I warmed up to it, but was left far from impressed.
This could be Heineken's long lost brother, although I think it should probably stay lost.

It's amazing that a brewer like Chuck Hahn can make some great beers when he wants to, then again when he wants to he can put some utter crap on the market (Hahn Ice).
Hahn Premium sits somewhere in the middle of all his beers. Decent hoppy flavour, Nice clean finish. A semi-decent mass produced lager at best. But for the price of this beer don't even think about buying it, you can get much better quality from his other brands than this.

Well, this one tasted more like a Euro Pale than an American Adjunct. Poured a clear straw colour with an inch of lathery head into a pils glass. As expected, the head did not last more than 30 seconds. Smell was of pale malt, leafy, grassy with a wee bit note of hops. Tasted fairly malty upfront, adjunctless (no graininess in taste) with a metallic finish leading to bitterness (not from hops though). The finish is clean and crisp, making it ideal for hot and sunny days. Other than that, nothing much to write home about.

pours super clear with a stable white foam layer.
clean crisp taste and a similair finish. a good refreshing beer.
nice, as good as any other australian premium, maybe better. very enjoyable

Pale yellow with a medium head, standard standard lager appearance. Fairly strong malty smell on opening bottle, slightly metallic as time goes on but no skunkiness. Pleasant smell for a cheap lager, actually.
Flavor is medium bodied, fairly easy to drink, standard lager fare all around. A bit malty, easier to drink than not.

The beer poured with a fairly decent head thought it was mostly gone after a few sips. As typical of your standard Australian lager the colouring was fairly pale and clear.
The aroma wasn't particularly strong, a grassy smell with maybe a hint of hops.
The beer had a crisp clean bitterness initially but the flavour quickly dissipated away to almost nothing. I thought I may have detected a slightly metallic aftertaste but it was so faint that I can't be sure.
In the mouth it feels quite light and is well carbonated.
Overall not a beer I'd drink for the love of beer. Nothing complex about it to stimulate my senses. It goes down the throat easily enough and there was nothing unpleasant about it but it's marketed as a premium beer and it has the price of a premium beer and for that you want something better than not being unpleasant.

What exactly makes this "premium" I will never know. On the upside, it has more hops to it than an american macro-swill, but it smells awful. The taste is ok if its ice cold and you're really thirsty. Otherwise, stay away. There are far better beers in Australia. Go with a Tooheys or a Cascade. Much better brews.
On a positive note, Hahn's commercials are hilarious.

Presentation: A rather unique looking green 375ml (12.7 fl.oz.) bottle, which has a fetching hour-glass figure and embossed features. Advertised as 5% ABV, and with a Packaged on Date of 22/10/02 ink-jet printed in dot-matrix format on the glass neck.
Appearance: A pale yellow, totally clear body with a massive frothy foam like head that leaves a strong thick lacing as the air bubbles inside the expanded head collapse revealing a crystalline white sponge on the surface. Looks OK.
Nose: Sweet with some hints of pilsner malts and err, erm, well, erm, thats it really.
Taste: An immediate, almost sickly, butterscotch affrays the mouth and puts me off, as well as a grimace on my face. Some cloying pilsner-like malt in the middle and a feint hoppiness in the end, which has all the strength of a signal from the far reaches of the known Universe.
Mouthfeel: Below average, just like the beers appeal.
Drinkability: Glad I only bought the single bottle from the broken 6-Pack Shelf.
Overall: Shite. That's probably why they ship the stuff North to a Continent far, far away. Australians probably piss themselves laughing after drinking Imported beer whilst thinking that some stupid Overseas beer geek is drinking theirs. There again, maybe they piss into funky shaped green glass bottles.
Advertised as Australia's Premium Beer figures!

Pale gold, yellow. Nice tight frothy head, no bead. Keeps a thin tight head, leaving some nice lace.
Fresh, grassy hop nose, with a metallic note.
Crisp, vegetal, gingery hop flavour, Grainy aftertaste, mild bitterness, not much overt maltiness evident. Medium bodied mouthfeel, which tends to drain away with little malt body or cloyingness.
A good session beer for a warm day.

Available at Trader Joe's in case anyone is loking for it. Nice summer beer. Gold color, large head. A light bodied lager. Bright and fresh tasting. Light malts and bright hops. Mouthfeel is full and round. Finish is clean and smooth. Aftertaste is malty and slightly bitter. A nice refreshing beer.

Pours a light golden colour... It's so standard-looking it isn't funny. I've reviewed a few more beers that look the same because they're all so standard and lagery. This one, however, loses half a point. Because it's supposed to be a premium beer and it's so nothing special. At least not in appearance.
Nose is not particularly nice, it has to be said. It just smells adjuncty, unpleasantly bitter and...well, sort of dusty. Dusty, you say? Yes, that's the best word up with which I can come. It's not very nice, anyway.
Taste is incredibly average. I remember at one stage this beer was actually quite mouth-bleedingly horrible, but I guess my palatte has matured somewhat since then; the taste isn't disgustoid but my God it's pretty watery. Considering how much kudos this beer has around the plebs of Australian beer-drinking, it's a huge disappointment. I would have expected at least some really unpleasant baked beans-esque aftertaste or something, but there's just nothing to speak of. It's another standard lager. Hooray for Hahn Premium. For being boring.

Hahn Premium. One of the big Australian premiums. Why? I don't know.
A = Golden yellow coloured. Thick white foam head.
S = Grassy/ Hoppy aroma
T = A bit heavy handed in my opinion. There is a heavy grass taste that gets accenuated by the bitterness.
M = A bit overly carbonated. Hurt my tongue a little.
D = A bit expensive for an aussie beer. Better aussie beers out there.

BLP's deal with Thames Water creates non-City platform
Readers' comments (1)
It will be interesting to see how many of the lawyers BLP manage to retain. Moving from being in-house at a blue chip client, managing City law firms on multi-$bn projects, to becoming a second-class private-practice lawyer for a firm like BLP will be seen as quite a step down. BLP will have to work hard to keep them (and speaking as an in-houser, money is not the motivator it would be in private practice - otherwise, why leave private practice in the first place?).

5:10pm Friday 7th March 2014
By Ruth Halkon
Travellers who had occupied an empty car park have been escorted off the site by police.
Around ten travellers set up camp on the former Elstree Business Centre car park in Rowley Lane more than two weeks ago, and more arrived over the course of the fortnight.
They left the site at midday today under the supervision of High Court enforcement officers, Borehamwood Police and the council's environmental health team.
They were shadowed by police on the M25 until they left Hertfordshire.
The travellers left behind 75 piles of mixed builders waste, several empty propane bottles, and one caravan.
A council spokeswoman said nothing hazardous was found
She added: "There is very little domestic waste as it appears they were burning it. The remaining waste is unlikely to be attractive to vermin and the only danger to the public would come from broken glass and other sharp objects if they trespassed."
A spokeswoman for landlords Legal and General said the clean-up operation would begin tomorrow.
She added: "We have done as we promised to get the travellers off the site as quickly as possible."

text: On a warm August day at the Jardin du Luxembourg park in Paris, France., two friends meet. Poojee has a scare then meets his rescuer. He decides to be quiet the whole day until 8:00pm, he will know when he should talk. He knows when to talk when he meets Zahzah. J'ai des diamonds avec ma poche is a favorite saying of mine, it means....I have diamonds in my pockets. It means what is most important is the silence and the diamond ( riches) you hold inside your being. How one little fellow overcomes fear, meets a friend, has a lovely day, then falls in love. Love is in the air in Paris, a few sentences in French.

Like most of you, I am just trying to cope with yesterday's disappointing loss to Duke. Combined with OU's win, it might make some of you temporarily jealous of our good neighbors to the north. This morning, I ran across this.
"In January 2008, London's The Sun found a practitioner of a new art form in which a design is inked, with a tattoo needle, into the sclera, which is the white part of the eyeball. That volunteer (from Canada) may well be the only daredevil, or one of a tiny number, but Oklahoma state senators were alarmed enough that they passed legislation out of committee in February to ban the practice in their state. "If we can stop ... one person from doing it, we've been successful," said Sen. Cliff Branan. An Oklahoma City tattoo artist told KSBI-TV that the law is useless, in that "common sense" will prevent the problem. (So far, only the senators from Oklahoma seem to believe they have constituents who might actually ask for ink to be inserted into their eyeballs.) [KSBI-TV (Oklahoma City), 2-20-09; The Sun, 2-27-08] "
While Chuck Sheperd seems to be poking fun at the Oklahoma state senate for passing an unnecessary law, we know better. The good senators from Oklahoma know their constituents all too well, it seems. If any jurisdiction on the planet needs a law to prevent its citizens from getting their eyeballs tattooed, it's Soonerland.
To summarize, while you may feel pain this morning, life could be worse. You could be an Okie.

5 reasons why Toolbar Pagerank is still important
There is no other seo metric that is as widely tracked by webmasters as the toolbar pagerank. Everytime google updates the same, the entire blogosphere goes crazy. I have no doubt that you have already heard enough arguments about how the toolbar pagerank is for fun purpose alone and we need not give any importance to it. If you are talking about ranking on google alone, then I completely agree with the above. The pagerank of binaryday went down to 0 (zero) around 4-5 months back and since then my traffic has more than doubled.
While toolbar pagerank is not important for Google, it makes a big difference to our life as bloggers because of the following 5 reasons that I will explain in detail in the later part of this post
- The attention span of other bloggers is impacted by the toolbar pagerank of your blog
- To know if your seo attempts are moving in the right direction
- To identify strong pages on your blog and use them to improve ranking of other pages
- Sheer bragging value
The attention span of other bloggers is impacted by the toolbar pagerank of your blog
Be honest. We tend to judge other bloggers based on the pagerank of their blog. At least the first impression, the amount of time we spend to get to know them etc is impacted by that little green bar. If you get emails from 2 bloggers, one with a pagerank of 5 and another one with a pagerank of 0, and if you can answer only 1 of the 2 which one will you answer first? If you can not follow a blog post with 0 pagerank then you conclude it is crap. If the same post were wriiten on a blog with pagerank 7, you would have probably concluded that it is beyond you. In a world where majority of users have too short attention span, a higher pagerank gets us a little more time to impress that blogger who may end up giving us a link, digg or stumble.
To know if your seo attempts are moving in the right direction
Fortunately or unfortunately, pagerank is the only seo metric that is published by Google. Trust me if you are not trying some fancy seo tricks, then pagerank tends to be a really good measure of the progress of your seo attempts. In the absence of pagerank, all that you can do is guess work. The importance of this point is less for bloggers more comfortable with seo and a lot higher for newbies.
To identify strong pages on your blog and use them to improve ranking of other pages
I am not sure if you are aware of this really powerful seo trick or not. If you are targetting some not so competitive keywords, then you can easily rank in the first page of Google by simply linking to it from strong internal pages. What is the easiest way to identify strong internal pages? Right..that green bar on google toolbar.
Bragging value
How I wish I could stand in a bloggers meet and claim that I have a PR 5 blog. That 5 minute alone is worth all the fight that I shall have to put to convince google that I have not used any shady tactics and regain my pagerank.
Looking forward to your views on the topic. Hopefully you will not go by the pagerank of my blog and leave some comments ;-

"I have had increasing pain in both rotator cuffs for the past week.This morning I could barely lift my right arm and nearly cried from the pain. I'm a chef and the physical/mental stress of Thanksgiving was taking it's toll.
"En route to a friend's pool this morning to try to work this out I remembered your interview with Dr. Loren Fishman on yoga and standing on your head. I probably have not stood on my head in 30+ years but I did this morning and the results were immediate and amazing. I have full range of motion in both arms and the pain has greatly dimished. I can't thank you enough for your always informative programs."
When Loren Fishman, MD, described his own experience with a torn rotator cuff and his yoga headstand we were amazed but a little skeptical. On the other hand, Dr. Fishman is medical director of Manhattan Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation in New York City. He is also associate editor of Topics in Geriatric Rehabilitation, on the staff at Columbia College of Physicians and Surgeons and past president of the New York Society of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation. When it comes to injuries, Dr. Fishman is no flake. He also knows his yoga.
Dr. Fishman studied yoga in India for three years before medical school and continues to practice it himself. He has found that modified yoga moves can be used to treat problems like a torn rotator cuff in the shoulder or piriformis syndrome in the hip. He has also found ways to use yoga to treat osteoporosis, sciatica and scoliosis.
We do NOT suggest that someone with a torn rotator cuff start doing headstands without a trained yoga teacher in attendance who can provide appropriate support and supervision. That said, you are not the first person who has told us that this technique can be helpful. One man was all set to undergo surgery but found that the yoga headstand eased his discomfort so much that he was able to postpone and then avoid surgery.
To listen to the full one-hour FREE interview with Dr. Loren Fishman, click on this link. You may be as amazed as he was that this technique was so helpful.
Here are some additional comments about our interview with Dr. Fishman:
"The Dr. is correct. I have "healed" shin splints, rotator problems, carpal tunnel, sinus problems, headaches, fatigue, and depression with yoga. It is truly something that can change your life around if you suffer with chronic health problems."
"As yoga teachers in the Plano, Richardson and Murphy area (North Dallas) we have seen many students who have benefited from the classical Hatha Yoga poses. The slow and gentle style of hatha yoga we teach has helped a number of students with such neck-/back-/shoulder-pain, arthritis, and even sciatica among other conditions.
"From our experience, the benefits of yoga are as real as Dr. Fishman described. Yet, we always find it especially encouraging to hear a "medicial doctor" support and validate the therapeutic benefits of yoga. His detailed explanations based on his medical knowledge of the body answer the "how and why" yoga helps.
"Most yoga teachers are not doctors and cannot "claim" such benefits without scientific proof; however, Dr. Fishman appropriately addressed this at the end of the show by saying yoga can help with a number of medical conditions but it takes science to validate them. Medical science has a long way to catch up to the ancient wisdom of yoga and I wonder if there is any incentive for researching the benefits of yoga poses -- they can't be copyrighted!. Yet such shows are an encouraging alternative to the mainstream medical treatments prescribed, many which treat symptoms instead of root cause and are riddled with side-effects.
"Thank you for a great show today."
"I was cured of plantar fasciitis by doing a basic transitional pose called the Downward Dog pose about a dozen times throughout a yoga class. I had suffered for five months with this injury in one of my feet. But after getting no relief from daily exercises recommended by physical therapists and even Pilates instructors, I decided on a whim one day to return to yoga.
"By the end of class, despite constant pain during the Downward Dog poses, the pain had completely disappeared and has never returned in over four years. Two years ago I underwent Total Hip Replacement and returned to yoga, this time studying under a phenomenal yoga instructor who had also had hip replacement surgery. She modified the poses so that I wouldn't injure my new hip. Needless to say I am a firm advocate of yoga!"
"I am a physiatrist [medical doctor specializing in rehabilitation of nerve, muscle and bone] in practice in Florida and frequently suggest yoga to my predominantly geriatric patient population with great results. It is also very helpful for cancer survivors and caregivers and we have an onsite class in yoga as well as Tai Chi at the Center for Building Hope in Sarasota. Many of the participants report overall better sense of resilience, energy and diminished side effects from their various treatment.
"I agree it is important to work with a qualified health care provider, listen to your body and do not attempt poses that are painful or put undue strain on injured areas. Proper breathing is also an important element that many find helpful too."
"My yoga teacher gave me some exercises involving a rope and a door to do at home for a small rotator cuff tear after it had healed without surgery. With these simple exercises done daily, I was able to extend my arm above my shoulder again after about a month. Now it's as if It had never been torn.
"The tear occurred from repeatedly dropping a heavy purse into the car back seat and reaching back again awkwardly, to pick it up. Yoga keeps me moving without pain at 72. Without it I know I would have had problems by now."

I was reading through the Friday Bullets on TrueHoop and noticed this link to nbaplaybook.com. It disects a sequence from last night's game against the Cavs that resulted in a tip by Jo on a Derrick drive. While this typically deserves a FanShot, I thought I'd use it to illustrate my thoughts on the Bullsoffense in these situations. These breakdowns by nba playbook are great and I've been meaning to disect/post my own breakdowns, but have been too lazy.
The illustration focuses on Derrick, Jo, and the Cavs defenders, but I'd like to point out my frustrations with how the other players on the Bulls are positioned on this play (courtesy of the 4th picture).
I have a few problems with the scenario above. First, count how many Cavs have collapsed on Derrick - I count 3 (including Parker who's assigned to Kirk on the perimeter). Now... if three defenders have turned their attention to Derrick and a fourth (Z) is trailing the play, you'd think the Bulls could generate an easy bucket out of this. However, how many Bulls players are within an easy pass of Derrick - I count none. You could make a case for Jo trailing the play, but since Derrick is ahead of him, he'd have to guess that Z hadn't recovered effectively from the initial screen. This should be a strange circumstance to everyone b/c take a look at the paint - there's no one in it, b/c the Cavs are protecting "it" from Derrick.
Now....Kirk does the right thing (which is to move), but goes in the wrong direction..IMO. When you watch the play, Kirk moves up the floor, but I think he should have faded to the corner. If he does this, Derrick will have a line of sight to him for a direct pass instead of having to twist for a pass behind him. On the other hand, one could argue that moving up will force Parker to chase him, but that's fine. I feel he should force Parker to follow him to the baseline corner. The corner three is statistically the best area for a 3pt shot and Kirk will be open (on a night when he shot well) if Parker chooses to help on Derrick instead of staying with Kirk.
Conversely, Lu and Taj represent my greatest frustrations with this alignment. Moon is effectively guarding both of them. The traffic around Derrick will make a cross court pass to Lu virtually impossible. So much so that Moon might have enough time to recover back to Lu in the event a pass is attempted. As for Taj, he has allowed Moon to bury himself in his lap, so he aint going anywhere.
For anyone who watched the game, there were a few times where Lu cut to the basket as penetrators got the attention of Cavs defenders and wound up with good looks at the basket. That's exactly what he should have done on this play. IMO...as the sea (painted area) parted, Lu should have been dashing to the paint where he'd be much closer and in perfect position to receive a pass from Derrick. Remember, Taj is already positioned at the basket, so Moon's first priority is to negate an easy dunk/layup attempt. Further, Lu is found of catching kick outs just inside the 3pt line. If Lu insists on taking 2s, why not take them much closer to the basket?

PHOENIX (AP) -- A court proceeding on a misdemeanor hit-and-run charge against Arizona Attorney General Tom Horne is being postponed again and his lawyer says he is trying to reach a settlement with prosecutors.
Horne's attorney requested and obtained a second one-month delay in a pretrial conference that was scheduled Monday in Phoenix Municipal Court.
Michael Kimerer's request says he needs more time to evaluate the evidence and interview "critical witnesses." He also wrote in a Dec. 13 motion he is having ongoing settlement communications with city prosecutors he hopes lead to a resolution.
Horne is accused of not leaving a note after FBI agents saw him tap another vehicle while driving a borrowed car earlier this year.
Horne says he didn't think the other vehicle was damaged. He has pleaded not guilty.

Colby Lewis #48 of the Texas Rangers pitches against the Houston Astros in the 1st inning on May 20, 2012 during interleague play at Minute Maid Park in Houston, Texas.
Since the Rangers failed to land really any of their off-season targets, there are several questions facing the team heading into spring training and the 2013 season.
Today's Question: When will the Rangers get some of their pitchers back from injury?
There's no question that the Texas Rangers need some help in the pitching department — both in the starting rotation and the bullpen. The Rangers have some big names that are rehabbing from surgery and there is a question of when they will be available.
Joakim Soria, who is expected to be the first one back, could return by late May but is more likely to return in early June. Assuming he's healthy and ready to roll, he could instantly be plugged in as the team's set-up man in front of closer Joe Nathan.
Perhaps the most important missing piece is Colby Lewis, who has been the rock of the Rangers' pitching staff for the past three seasons and has been nails in the postseason. He's slotted for a June or July return but general manager Jon Daniels told Norm Hitzges on 1310-AM The Ticket on Friday morning that Lewis' rehab is going extremely well so that return could be the sooner part of his timetable rather than the later. He would provide, at worst, a No. 5 starter and if he's back to his old self would probably be a No. 3 or No. 4.
The wild card here is Neftali Feliz, who would be doing well to pitch at all in 2013, but if he could get back from his Tommy John surgery and provide some depth in the bullpen that would be huge for the Rangers' staff.

BEAVER TOWNSHIP, Pa. - An adventurous pooch in Lawrence County is lucky to be alive thanks to three good Samaritans.
Reeba, a Brittany Golden Retriever, fell through the ice in Pete's Lake off Beechwood Road in North Beaver Township late Thursday afternoon.
Fortunately Rachal Bright, who lives nearby, heard Reeba barking and called her brother and cousin for help.
They got a boat out to Reeba and saved her from possibly drowning.
"I noticed the dog struggling and barking, stuck in the lake. It looked like it had possibly walked out there and fell through the ice," Bright said.
"It had been barking but was pretty tired by then. It was pretty whooped. It didn't fight us. We got it in the boat just fine. We got it back to shore pretty quickly," said Mark Pezzuolo.
First responders were waiting on shore with blankets and quickly got Reeba warmed up. She's re-united with her owner and doing just fine tonight.

WILMINGTON, NC (WECT) – Neil Stanley Page Jr. was recently found guilty in connection to a home invasion on May 27, 2010.
Stanley and two other co-defendants broke into a home in the Sea Breeze community in South Wilmington. Stanley pistol whipped one of the victims and pinned down both victims while the other men rummaged through the home money and goods.
When law enforcement arrived at the home, all of the defendants fled. The driver was caught immediately and the other defendants were captured soon after fleeing.
Stanley was later arrested in August 2011 on fugitive warrants in San Diego.
Stanley was convicted of several counts, including robbery with a deadly weapon, breaking and entering, assault with a deadly weapon inflicting serious injury, and first degree and second degree kidnapping.
Stanley's defense was simple and to the point, "I didn't do it. It wasn't me."
Stanley faces 220-282 months (18-23.5 years) in prison. He will be held at the Department of Corrections in Raleigh until it is determined where he best fits.
Stanley is claiming mistrial, citing a member of the jury was sleeping during the trial.
According to Connie Jordan, the prosecuting attorney, the woman was spoken to by the judge during the trial.

A nationwide series of more than 40 listening sessions produced more than 6,000 comments that helped to shape five centennial goals. The goals and vision were presented to President Bush and to the American people on May 31st in a report called The Future of America's National Parks.
Every national park staff took their lead from this report and created local centennial strategies to describe their vision and desired accomplishments by 2016. This is just the first year, and there are many great things to come as the National Park Service prepares to celebrate 100 years!
To keep up with the Centennial Initiative and to experience the interactive version of The Future of America's National Parks and special features please visit the centennial website at www.nps.gov/2016.

Recently I gave a talk at SMU (Singapore Management University) on the future of social media and its impact on businesses. Here is a blog post by Michael Netzley on the talk.
In a nutshell, I see 4 key drivers that will shape the way we work: Enterprise 2.0, Mobile, Content and Video, and finally Crowdsourcing. All of them are related in one way or another.
If you think that only 10 years ago we were dealing with Y2K, that Google was just one and a half years old, that we were excited by the first USB flash drive… We can only imagine what's ahead, in the next 10 years.

Part 2 of a Q&A with Clifton Taylor and his light plots for A Dancer's Dream, an evening-length production with the New York Philharmonic featuring New York City Ballet star Sara Mearns, created in conjunction with Giants Are Small.
What was the biggest challenge in this production for you?
With orchestra productions, the biggest challenge is always time. There is time pressure because the orchestra rehearsals are so controlled and the time on the hall to be dark is very limited. These productions are always a sort of circus (which was such a good fit for Petrushka!) with puppets, performers, orchestra players, cameras, and projections all coming together for a quick rehearsal or two. This is our team's (Giants are Small and director Doug Fitch) third production for the Philharmonic. Each one has gotten a little bit bigger and more challenging and the orchestra management has responded with more hours for each show, but it is always challenging to work so quickly. I'm so grateful for the team of people who help with the lighting to make it possible. Mike and Paul are the best in the business and for this show I had assistant help from Anshuman Bhatia, a wonderful scenic and lighting designer recently graduated from NYU's Tisch School Of The Arts, and the amazing and tireless crew from Avery Fisher Hall, led by the legendary Richie Norton.

The chair was easy to assemble. Good buy for money, not best quality. Occasionally used it is a great bargain. I would not recommend for everyday use.
