In an effort to combat the soul-sucking loneliness affecting its villagers but also to empower the culture of its local, endangered pubs, the town council in Kilgarvan devised a plan allowing the local police to issue special permits enabling those who'd had "two or three" drinks at their nearest pub to drive home on back roads at "very low speeds" without getting arrested.
Chefs now need to be more than good cooks. They have to excite. They need to lick their fingers à la Nigella, or knead bread with their big manly hands.
…or be lovable dorks like Tyler Florence? Not a lot of sex appeal there, in my opinion.
McDonald's may be the country's No. 1 fast-food chain and one of its most-beloved brands, but when it comes to millennials, the Golden Arches says it doesn't even rank among the demographic's top 10 restaurant chains.
We were told growing up that we would have a shorter life expectancy than our parents because of our eating habits. So this is no surprise.

So, Michael Gove has gone, shuffled from the Department for Education by a prime minister with his eye on the 2015 election.
The 'blob', as Gove labelled the mystifyingly unappreciative education sector, has had the last laugh, as there's little doubt that it was his low popularity that put Gove on tory strategist Lynton Crosby's hit list.
Taking his place will be Nicky Morgan, fresh from the Treasury. The Conservative MP for Loughborough, she retains her additional role as minister for women and has also taken on responsibility for 'equalities'. So what do we know about her? Well, true to the coalition line, she voted to raise the cap on tuition fees and is a champion of academies and greater autonomy in general for schools. She voted for all of Gove's education reforms. Her only major break from the tory majority was when she voted against the same-sex marriage bill last year, leading to the issue being removed from her 'equalities' brief.
What we really want to know is, fi rstly, will she give the profession a break? A slower rate of change would go down a storm, thanks. And secondly, will she listen to what teachers want?
On an entirely different note, I recently had the honour of introducing the youth orchestras that performed at Birmingham's Symphony Hall on the last day of Music for Youth's National Festival. It was a humbling experience, witnessing the fruits of so much hard work and enjoying the infectious camaraderie that springs from dedicated ensemble participation. Orchestras performing on the day included the Greater Gwent Youth Orchestra, a band that had its funding pulled last year but has clearly not let standards slip, producing a deeply affecting Gadfly Suite; The Wessex Youth Orchestra, which, if you shut your eyes, would seem to be entirely peopled by adult professionals; and the mighty Birmingham Schools' Concert Orchestra, which gave an unforgettable performance of Arnold's Peterloo Overture. Props to the Kirklees Youth Orchestra, two members of which flew back from Malaga especially for the performance (before flying back again), and the refreshingly original Bradford Youth Orchestra, which stopped off in Birmingham on its way back from a tour of the Rhineland. And all credit to Judith Webster and her team for delivering a multi-venue, five-day event involving more than 10,000 students without apparently breaking a sweat.
It takes a special talent to get the date of your own event wrong, but in my defence, I did claim in my last editorial that my head was 'spinning' with the possibilities. The Music Education Expo 2015 takes place on 12 and 13 March next year, not February as stated. The Music Teacher Awards for Excellence 2015 take place on the evening of 12 March and nominations open on 4 August, see page 50 for full details.

The NBA lockout is not nearly as close to coming to an end as its NFL brethren. In fact, the exact opposite could be happening following a meeting scheduled for Friday between Billy Hunter and agents of some of the league's top players.
Hunter, the Executive Director of the NBPA, will meet with agents including Mark Bartelstein and Arn Tellem in New York on Friday according to Bloomberg News. Among the topics of discussion will be decertification of the union -- a move the NFL players made much earlier in the process.
Decertification is rumored to come with some grave consequences, according to an earlier report, but making that move would send a new message to the owner's side according to sports law professor Paul Haagen of Duke University.
"Decertification is potentially an expression of lack of confidence in the existing union and its effectiveness in negotiation," Haagen said in a telephone interview. "Or it is a strategy about unions and collective bargaining all together, the belief that it might be better to operate outside of the federal labor laws and have a much more open labor market."
Either way, let's hope this is more of a bluff than something that might actually be on the table as it doesn't seem to have helped the NFL straighten their mess out.

VIDEO: More is needed for foodbank
9:37am Thursday 15th May 2014 in News
An established city centre food bank is struggling to feed hungry families needing its help.
Bradford Metropolitan Food Bank, based at St Mary's Church, says demand for its help is fast emptying its shelves.
The number of food parcels being handed out to needy people across Bradford has increased from about 200 a month in January of last year to more than 800 a month now.
The food bank's treasurer, Keith Thompson, said there was a whole series of circumstances which had driven up demand, including benefit cuts, increased cost of living and a surge in power tariffs.
"People are struggling more now than ever before and we need people's continued and new support to be able to give all the help we can," he said.
The charity is asking for donations of non-perishable items, including tins of meat and fish, soup, spaghetti, beans, vegetables, fruit, rice pudding and custard. It also needs jars of coffee, sauce, jams and pickles as well as packets of sugar, tea, cereal, rice, pasta, cous cous, cereal and snack bars.

More on free market fundamentalists
I'm no expert in economic theory, but there's something about the glib promises of free-market fundamentalism that has never seemed to add up. So lately I've spent time reading things written by people who know a lot more about it than I do. One of those people is Fred Block, who has a thought-provoking article up at the Longview Institute website.
If you're at all interested in the cataclysmic clash between free market mania and the progressive pursuit of the common good, please take time to read it. I especially liked his conclusion:
Market Fundamentalism is actually more vulnerable than ever. As the dominant viewpoint for more than twenty-five years, it has a proven record of failure. Despite years of increasing reliance on markets, poverty and inequality are worsening, the health care system is in crisis, corporate crime and corruption are widespread, and we have fiddled as the crisis of global climate change has intensified.
Progressives have to invest resources in campaigns that chip away at the dominance of Market Fundamentalism. These could be giant campaigns such as a battle for universal health insurance or something far more limited such as an effort to eliminate those annoying television ads for prescription drugs that mostly serve to drive drug prices ever higher.
We might lose such campaigns in the short term, but they would produce tangible benefits. First, there would be real spillovers to other fights. Whether the issue is access to health care, controlling greenhouse gases, anti-poverty programs, corporate corruption, or labor rights, conservatives consistently defend their position by invoking Market Fundamentalism and the wisdom of the market. If a campaign on health care weakens people's belief in these ideas, it will help in the next battle for tighter environmental regulations or for improved labor rights.
The second benefit is that campaigns that attack Market Fundamentalism can help us peel away some voters who are currently aligned with the religious right, but who are susceptible to arguments for building our economy on moral foundations. It could also help break up the business community's almost monolithic alliance with the Right, since many businesses would obviously benefit by bringing health care costs under control.
There's a lot more good stuff there, so I hope you'll take a look.
And if you wonder why any of this is important, the answer is simple. Art "the Puppetmaster" Pope and the John Locke Foundation are in the business of spreading myths about free-market fundamentalism around North Carolina ... to the point where small-minded policymakers actually want to adopt their ideas into public policy. Part of our job is to expose the truth behind these scams and drive these delusions from the public arena.
Glad you're going there A
I will read the article later and would be interested in any more you recommend. This is an area where we can make a difference and should write articles countering the hood and offer to the same newspapers! Big pharma started a campaighn years ago, you probably remember, "keep government out of my medicine cabinet". Thought that was stupid then and still do now. I want government regulating drugs and protecting me, not the "no oversight" crap they push.
No matter that patriotism is too often the refuge of scoundrels. Dissent, rebellion, and all-around hell-raising remain the true duty of patriots.

He Has Given Us of His Spirit–1 John 4:13 Devotional
"By this we know that we abide in him and he in us, because he has given us of his Spirit" (1 John 4:13, ESV).
It's still dark out, and the light is just beginning to dawn, as it barely peeks in through the cracks in the curtains. Eyes slowly fluttering as consciousness takes form. Thoughts of the day before and regrets take a toll on the mind of the believer as she lay there wondering how long her Lord will put up with her obstinance and rebellion. As she lay there thinking her soul begins to cry out in desperation for his mercy and grace to cover her. She asks for his help to make it through the day without offending his precious Holy Spirit that she can only hope still dwells within her. As her prayer quiets for a moment she feels a still small voice whisper sweet words in her mind. "Be still, and know that I am God. By this we know we abide in him and he in us, because he has given us of his Spirit" (Psalms 46:10a & 1 John 4:13 ESV).
How many of us have felt this way upon the first few moments of the day or even the last? God's word is so powerful; powerful enough that even he uses it to bring comfort and conviction (Hebrews 4:12 &. 2 Timothy 3:16). He has given us a sign of his dedication, which is his Holy Spirit (Ephesians 1:13, 14) and scripture that gives us guidelines to know that we are his (1 John 2). His Holy Spirit is like an engagement ring, showing the love of the Father off. In those early moments that morning this saint was able to repent of her sin and come back to a place of safety within the arms of her Father. We all can do the same thing at any time. His arms are always open wide and ready for us to return.

|Council of Europe holds conference on free and fair media during the 2013 presidential elections in Georgia
29 August 2013, at the Courtyard Hotel in Tbilisi, the Council of Europe, with
the financial support of the Swiss Government, organised a conference on "The
Role of Free and Fair Media during the 2013 Presidential Elections". The
conference brought together media companies and associations - both national
and regional, local and international organisations, diplomatic missions, and
international media experts. Conference participants discussed the challenges
and opportunities for the Georgian media to adequately cover the upcoming
Presidential elections, the international legal framework governing media
coverage of elections, and the international standards and best practices that
need to be introduced in Georgia. Caterina Bolognese, Head of the Council of
Europe Office in Georgia, in her opening remarks noted that "media
professionalism is not only about making well-produced, well-prepared news or
talk shows, it is above all about providing news which is balanced,
objective and allows the public to listen to alternative points of view. This is
all the more important in an electoral context, when it's the media's role to
help voters make an informed choice on whom to vote for".

Colin Read: Political climate makes it hard to serve
Last week I argued that while economists abhor concentration of power, politics thrives on it.
The motto for economists may be everything in moderation, which perhaps is why you can't name many exciting economics majors, Mick Jagger aside.
On the other hand, we see many examples of excess in politics and among politicians.
This week I suspect we witnessed another casualty from the ruthless world of politics.
Our congressman, Bill Owens, has decided not to run for a fourth term. While most agree it is our loss, I'm sure few begrudge him for it.
I could not imagine any politician making decisions that meet universal agreement. But, when one judges the lot of another, I conclude that Mr. Owens served our region well and honorably by seeking compromise and building integrity, trust and respect among his colleagues.
To paraphrase the social commentator Samuel Johnson, politics is the last refuge of scoundrels. To understand why, I hearken back to "The Market for Lemons," a concept that won George Akerlof a Nobel Prize. He deduced something you may have discovered for yourself. Mr. Owens may have discovered that too.
Akerlof used an analogy. Cars are complex machines. Some work better than others, even within the same make and model. Owners only discover the problems and peculiarities of their particular car over time. If they buy a lemon, some would, unfortunately, like to unload it upon some unsuspecting sucker. However, there are also legitimate reasons to sell a car.
The problem is that it is next to impossible to signal to the unsuspecting public whether one is selling a good car or is peddling a lemon masquerading as of high quality. Only over time do we discover the true nature of what we have purchased. We may, by then, suffer "buyer's remorse."
The market will devalue a particular model if a sufficiently large proportion of its cars are lemons. The problem is, if you are the lucky owner of a car that is not a lemon, it is difficult to signal to others that they can trust you when you claim your car is of high quality. Owners of good cars find it unprofitable to sell their car in the highly discounted market. The bad drives out the good, and only lemons prevail.
This is why warranties, reputation and integrity are important. A reputable dealer won't peddle a lemon, or may offer a warranty to ensure you their promises are credible. The warranty, or the integrity and reputation of an individual, acts to create trust for buyers so they know that either the car they purchase is not a lemon, or, if it is, the seller will make things right.
Politics, too, suffers the same fate. If all politicians are cast with the same negative brush, honest politicians with integrity find it too disheartening to serve.
Ideally, politics is the art of debate and persuasion, compromise and collegiality, combined with some horse-trading and honest dealing. While each congressman takes a pledge to serve the people and the U.S. Constitution, they also implicitly pledge to foster faith and trust within the institution. Ultimately, it is their integrity that earns them the respect that allows them to do good work on our behalf.
Some in Congress have sacrificed transparency, integrity and compromise in pursuit of power. They seem unable to have the honest debate, make the hard-fought compromises, and agree to stick to their agreements with high principle and integrity and without demonizing others. When respect is lost, the body politic degenerates.
We are left suffering voter's remorse. And, when honest public servants find themselves having to constantly deal with others who are untrustworthy, either they too sacrifice their integrity, or they seek another avenue for public service. Once lost, respect is almost impossible to get back.
We often find well-intentioned candidates with integrity who can build respect and forge those relationships that bode well for us all. The problem is not in attracting good candidates, but rather is in creating a sense of transparency, integrity, trust, compromise and collegiality so we can keep them in office. If we do not, the best leave and the rest remain. Meanwhile, our faith in Congress erodes.
Colin Read chairs the finance and economics faculty at SUNY Plattsburgh and has published a dozen books on global and local finance and economics.

In light of recent happenings here on the offside, I had a few thoughts to share. Rather than post some long comment, I'll do what I've always threatened to do, a fanpost. First one so here goes.
On the offside, there happens to be a lot of people with worthwhile things to say. Unfortunately, the conversation sometimes goes south because of a few knuckleheads who don't want to make any sense. They just want to hear themselves talk, or read what they write I think. I can only speculate why they wouldn't want to at least come to an understanding. That's not exactly what this is about though. Where I'm going with this is that Gian, more than anyone gets more s**t than anything warranted. He got attacked pretty hard along with AviA, for what? Thinking something and explaining why he thinks so? Really?Whether you agree with Gians views or not, you have to know that his views are coming from a place of thought and honestly. At least he deserves the respect of someone who knows what he is talking about. Many of his detractors cannot say this about themselves. This isn't meant necessarily to kiss his ass, though love is intended. I don't agree with everything he says nor does he agree with everything I say. Golden! Free thinkers often come to different conclusions. That said, agree with most.
The biggest reason he deserves respect however is because of the way he moderates this blog. Folks you can say whatever you want. It's on you. You are free to make as much or as little sense as you wish. Have you ever been to other blogs? There usually so many house rules that you can't say s**t. They are so anemic that real discussion is impossible. Not all but still. I really think that fans are extremely fortunate to have an English speaking blog of this quality. Regardless of the silliness sometimes. Gian deserves all of the credit. Please acknowledge this.
Also, I have only recently been able to receive comments. I noticed that many comments are well received but the actual posts aren't. I've started receiving every post of Gian's and every fan post as well. I only started this very recently but I figure that if they go thru the trouble to do a post, agree or not, it should be acknowledged. Not to tell anyone what to do, but it might not be a bad idea for others to do this as well. They deserve it.
End rant. Most of this was something I've wanted to get off of my chest for a while. Aim your guns here!

Public Access Defibrillator Program
Public Access Defibrillation (PAD) means putting an Automated External Defibrillator (AED) where people might need them.
If you place an AED where someone might have a Sudden Cardiac Arrest (SCA), and you know that someone nearby is trained to use the machine, the survival rates from an SCA will improve enormously.
In the spring of 2004, funds were approved for the purchase of 38 Automated External Defibrillators and the development of a Public Access Defibrillator program for the City of Cornwall and the United Counties of Stormont, Dundas and Glengarry.
Since that time, additional AEDs have been purchased and placed in locations throughout the community with the assistance of the Heart and Stroke Foundation of Ontario and the Province of Ontario has contributed another 53 AEDs in the community.
The Public Access Defibrillator Program administers these AEDs and assists community partners with additional AEDs that are located throughout the community.
You can find a full list of AED locations in the community further down this page.
AEDs are available for loan to groups for special events. Some conditions do apply. Contact the Emergency Management and Community Safety Coordinator at 613-930-2787 x 2214 for more information.
What does a PAD program look like?
To run an effective Public Access Defibrillator program the following should be considered:
The Emergency Management and Community Safety Coordinator can assist any group interested in starting a PAD program. Feel free to contact the Emergency Management and Community Safety Coordinator at 613-930-2787 x 2214 or email@example.com.
Can I be sued for using an AED in an Emergency?
In Ontario, there are two pieces of legislation which protects members of the public from civil liability. They are the Good Samaritan Act, 2001 and the Health Systems Improvement Act, Schedule N on Page 132 and 133 (Chase McEachern Act, Heart Defibrillator Civil Liability, 2007).
The Good Samaritan Act provides protection from civil liability when a person attempts to provide aid to another person during an emergency.
The Health Systems Improvement Act, Schedule N on Page 132 and 133 provides protection from civil liability to a person or organization that attempts to provide aid with a Automated External Defibrillator to another person during an emergency. To read the entire document including who the act applies too, what organizations are covered and its limitations, click on the Health Systems Improvement Act and read page 132 and 133.

Washington, June 21 (IBNS) NASA's Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter (LRO) spacecraft has returned data that indicate ice may make up as much as 22 percent of the surface material in a crater located on the moon's south pole.
The team of NASA and university scientists using laser light from LRO's laser altimeter examined the floor of Shackleton crater.
They found the crater's floor is brighter than those of other nearby craters, which is consistent with the presence of small amounts of ice.
This information will help researchers understand crater formation and study other uncharted areas of the moon. The findings are published in Thursday's edition of the journal Nature.
"The brightness measurements have been puzzling us since two summers ago," said Gregory Neumann of NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, Md., a co-author on the paper.
"While the distribution of brightness was not exactly what we had expected, practically every measurement related to ice and other volatile compounds on the moon is surprising, given the cosmically cold temperatures inside its polar craters."
The spacecraft mapped Shackleton crater with unprecedented detail, using a laser to illuminate the crater's interior and measure its albedo or natural reflectance. The laser light measures to a depth comparable to its wavelength, or about a micron.
That represents a millionth of a meter, or less than one ten-thousandth of an inch. The team also used the instrument to map the relief of the crater's terrain based on the time it took for laser light to bounce back from the moon's surface. The longer it took, the lower the terrain's elevation.
In addition to the possible evidence of ice, the group's map of Shackleton revealed a remarkably preserved crater that has remained relatively unscathed since its formation more than three billion years ago. The crater's floor is itself pocked with several small craters, which may have formed as part of the collision that created Shackleton.
The crater, named after the Antarctic explorer Ernest Shackleton, is two miles deep and more than 12 miles wide. Like several craters at the moon's south pole, the small tilt of the lunar spin axis means Shackleton crater's interior is permanently dark and therefore extremely cold.
"The crater's interior is extremely rugged," said Maria Zuber, the team's lead investigator from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in Cambridge in Mass. "It would not be easy to crawl around in there."
While the crater's floor was relatively bright, Zuber and her colleagues observed that its walls were even brighter. The finding was at first puzzling. Scientists had thought that if ice were anywhere in a crater, it would be on the floor, where no direct sunlight penetrates.
The upper walls of Shackleton crater are occasionally illuminated, which could evaporate any ice that accumulates.
A theory offered by the team to explain the puzzle is that "moonquakes"-- seismic shaking brought on by meteorite impacts or gravitational tides from Earth -- may have caused Shackleton's walls to slough off older, darker soil, revealing newer, brighter soil underneath. Zuber's team's ultra-high-resolution map provides strong evidence for ice on both the crater's floor and walls.
"There may be multiple explanations for the observed brightness throughout the crater," said Zuber. "For example, newer material may be exposed along its walls, while ice may be mixed in with its floor."
The initial primary objective of LRO was to conduct investigations that prepare for future lunar exploration. Launched in June 2009, LRO completed its primary exploration mission and is now in its primary science mission. LRO was built and is managed by Goddard.
This research was supported by NASA's Human Exploration and Operations Mission Directorate and Science Mission Directorate at the agency's headquarters in Washington.

News: Lloyd Hints At Controversial New Record, "It's Gonna Be The Sh*t"
Wednesday, Sep 22, 2010 11:45AM
Former Murder Inc. singer Lloyd has revealed that he is putting together a new, controversial record for his upcoming King of Hearts album.
Although brief in details, Lloyd did suggest that the track would be "awesome".
While his first single "Lay It Down" is still climbing the charts, Lloyd plans to stir up a little controversy with the follow-up, which features a special guest. Speaking to Rap-Up TV on set of his video shoot for "Lay It Down" in West Hollywood, Lloyd revealed that "Let's Get It In" will be the second single from his upcoming album King of Hearts. The R&B crooner, who recently cut off his trademark braids, teased with a few details. "It's featuring someone who I always really wanted to work with," he said. "It's very controversial. It's gonna be awesome. It's gonna be the sh*t." (Rap-Up)
Earlier today, Lloyd tweeted about working on a new record with rapper Soulja Boy Tell Em.
"Working on some @souljaboy new sh*t. Sounds amazin. I'm feelin myself. Yall aint ready," he tweeted Wednesday (September 22). (Lloyd's Twitter)
Recently, Lloyd said his post-Murder Inc. release would be packed with surprises.
"I'm the King of Hearts, you know," Lloyd said in an interview. "And at the album release, we gonna be drinking Ace of Spades...Me and Polow Da Don have been working hard. I got a lot of surprises. I think that a lot of people haven't heard me sound like this, haven't heard me sing like this. It's gonna be a new look, it's gonna be like I'm back for the first time. It should be anticipated. The album is gonna be my best work to date, King of Hearts." (MTV)
In light of his new situation, Lloyd recently cut off his signature braids.
Mahogany Wright, Lloyd's long time hair braider gave the artist one final braid, then did the honors of cutting off the 12 inch lock of hair. Moments before, Lloyd had this to say, "I'm doing this for me. I feel like it's time for a change and now is the perfect time." Lloyd's childhood barber, known simply as "Parker The Barber", who was the last person to cut his hair when he was just 14, finished the job, giving the artist a fresh new look. After his cut, Lloyd simply stated, "I feel liberated." (Ozone Mag)

If you want to locate a business downtown, there are plenty of vacant buildings. Finding housing is a different story. It could take up to a year on a waiting list to move into a downtown home.
Jackson businessman Leland Speed says more residential development could be the answer to the capital city's high office building vacancy rate.
Housing units are being built all over downtown Jackson, as the demand heats up. But primarily people are living in the old Standard Life Building, the old King Edward Hotel, the old Plaza Building across from the Governor's Mansion and the Electric Building at Pearl and West.
The Executive Director of Downtown Jackson Partners, Ben Allen, says the demand is strong.
"The residences are building, said Allen. "We had one open Friday and by Monday they are leased."
Julie Skipper is the President of the Downtown Neighborhood Association and has lived downtown since 2004.
"I absolutely love it," said Skipper. "Having residences in our core city is vitally important to the health of the city. I absolutely feel safe and secure, downtown."
A one bedroom in the Standard Life Building rents for around $900.00 a month.

A Colorado woman was impaled by a light pole after she crashed because she was texting and driving.
Headlights, windshield wipers and even umbrellas all offered a puzzling picture of what may lie ahead in the Rowan County Community of Faith.
Year after year the North Carolina town offers one of the biggest Independence Day celebrations in our region, and from the way the main drag with is decked out with red, white, and the blue folks here welcome the traffic.
Brenda Welch runs the downtown Soda shop, and says the prediction rain carries its share of risk.
"It's a great day for this community," she said. "We will be here with bells on and we look forward to the day regardless."
Uncertainty can be felt in East Charlotte's Hickory Grove Community.
Planners are proceeding with caution.
A wet forecast isn't stopping preparations here.
Folks at the Grove Presbyterian Church aren't slowing down with preparations for the floats, and students at the summer freedom school spent the afternoon making signs that they will carry in the parade.
Susan Lindsay is an organizer with the Hickory Grove Parade Association
"We don't want anyone to be in danger with the weather, so thunderstorms are one issue, "she said. " Light rain like this just for the fun of it or teaching your kids how to celebrate a little bit of splatter isn't gonna make a whole lot of difference."
Back in Faith, there will be a celebration regardless.
The front page of the Salisbury Post says it will happen come rain or shine, but folks at the A and L mini mart are expressing optimism in anticipation of the busiest day of the year.
Cindy Freeman grew up in Faith and runs the family business.
"I believe that we'll have a good turnout," She said.
The parade at Hickory Grove parade is set to begin at 10 o'clock on the morning of the Fourth.
It will start at the Hickory Grove Recreation Center on Pence Road and end at the Grove Presbyterian Church at Harris Boulevard and Milton Road.

3.83/5 rDev +20.8%
Presentation: 12oz European style green bottle. Freshness date clearly marked.
Appearance: Pale/straw yellow with a slight haze. Pours a foamy white patchy head that settles to a patchy sticky cream lace.
Smell: Delicate noble hops in the aroma with light notes of sulfur (that definitive import lager "skunk" smell), faint esters and sweet tea.
Taste: Light on the palate, yet there's a definite fullness to this brew which is pronounced by its creamy mouthfeel. A malt sweetness of dextrin blends with very faint aniseed and smooth lemon rind-like hop flavours that peak to a mildly crisp bite. Light grain and metallic notes are also present. Some interesting esters pull-thru and linger to the end along with some hops. The brew finishes slightly dry.
Notes: Found this at the bottom of the shelves at my local ghetto package store. Came in a 12-pack box. To my surprise Gösser turned out to be a very nice alternative (to the US norm) lager. Very enjoyable and flavourful. Great all around knock-em-back beer.

Pours very clean with a decent white head. Good hoppiness. Very crisp and clean tasting. Tends to be a little skunky. Light in body, but big in flavor. Goes down smooth and lingers with a spritzy lemon-like taste. Overall, I recommend this beer. Serve at a medium temperature. A good summer beer to drink outside.

(There are apparently two beers on BA named Goesser with identical pictures and all, so I'm going with this one because the brewery name is the same as on the can)
"Austria's Finest Beer." We shall see.
Poured into a lager glass. Medium golden, lots of visible carbonation. A 1/2 inch of foamy head quicky and completely dissolved. No lacing.
Nose is corn, white wine, hops, a bit of straw.
Not bad for a Euro lager. Slightly sweet, with a better than average malt character.
Medium body, decent carbonation, slightly creamy.
As far as Euro "umlaut" lager is concerned, this one ain't bad. I just really wish brewers would stop throwing around the "best beer" or "finest beer" moniker on their labels, cause this one sure isn't. Still, a highly drinkable lager, and a decent summer brew.

2.95/5 rDev -6.9%
Clear and pale yellow color, decent 1/2 inch head of foam. Partial comma-like lacing in a standard pint glass. Acidic aroma, slight sufur skunk, and a sense of hops somewhat like milkweed. Light body, a bit too overcarbonated for my tastes. Malts are straightforward, slight skunk and a tea-like hop impression balance adequately and dry the finish somewhat. Not awful or great, could be an OK session brew...

Pretty thin and horrible, too fizzy aswell. Yellow appearance, with fizzy mineral water head, no aroma, and pretty close to noe flavour, perhaps a bit of malt in there, but too bland in my books.

2.58/5 rDev -18.6%
A very pale straw gold and crystal clear. 2-3 fingers of quickly diminishing head leaving no lace behind.
Grainy cereal aroma and grassy hops, both very faint. This almost doesn't have a scent, it's so tame.
Tastes faintly of grassy hops, mild bitterness, cereal, and an unpleasant acidity.
Light bodied with spritzy carbonation. Thin and watery. It's not a drain pour, but I wont be having it again.

2.83/5 rDev -10.7%
A - A three finger snow white head graces the top of this golden brew, and a good amount of wet lace is left on the glass. the head shows good retention, and it gets rocky on it's way down to a finger cap. Looks pretty good!
S - I thought that this was a German pils when I bought it, and now I see (rather, smell) why it isn't one. This is more malty and less hoppy on the nose than a pils, and the lack of Saaz spice is what makes the distinction apparent. This isn't very assertive, but it smells very fresh and clean, like a Springtime thunderstorm.
T - This is not bad, just boring. It's lightly fruity and a bit sharp, but there isn't much going on. Like the nose, it is very fresh and clean on the palate, and I gotta give it points for that.
M - This is light bodied without being watery, and the prickly carbonation and dry finish make this a very refreshing brew.
D - Not bad at all. Could be a very nice session lager, or a good beer to woo your BMC friends away from the macro crap lagers that are prevalent in the states. Euro lagers are never really mind blowing, but they are light years ahead of our domestic shit-lagers.

Pours a pale golden color topped by a small, tight white head that dissipates after only a few minutes. Aroma of slightly skunked adjunct malt is evident as soon as the cap is popped - light notes of moderately bitter pops and pilsner malt, but mainly skunk. Palate is a balance between mildly sweet adjunct malt and some slightly skunked hops. Mouthfeel is typical of a Euro lager - light and a touch creamy. I suppose I could put a few of these back, but it's not exactly a memorable experience.

12oz bottle
A- Pours a pale golden yellow color with a white colored head that leaves sporadic lacing around the glass.
S- The aroma definitely has that familiar skunked smell from a lot of imported lagers in green bottles with some sulfer with some grain and hints of spicy hops.
T- The taste like the aroma is light bodied with some malt and some mildly crisp hops at the finish.
M- The mouthfeel is light bodied with a decent creaminess that adds to the body a little bit.
D- This is an interesting enough beer that would be pretty easy to throw a few of them back in one session.This is definitely a little more interesting than your average Euro Lager, but not something that I would go out and purchase again. Worth a try

I loved the attractive bottle on this beer;
this had me thinking pale eurolager all teh way; mine was not skunked, it was chilled. Immediately you notice the fullness of rich creamy malt. the clean palate was and the subtle bitter grainy after taste.
I was quite impressed, if this is the beer of austria, it can't be so bad!

Gosser: This is an Austrian import that seems very popular in my area, and is virtually always on sale. It is sold in green bottles, and has a similar aroma to other Euro-lagers, with that faint skunk aroma. However, the taste is much lighter and refreshing than a Heineken, for example, and went down very, very well. This is a smooth beer that is worth a look.

Pours a pale straw color with a nice and fluffy white head that so far has left a wall of lacing on the glass. The smell is faint and grainy, has that Euro green bottle skunk smell. The taste is of light grassy noble hops, grainy malt, and a metallic skunk taste. The feel is watery and dull, doesn't really have that crisp taste of a lager. A typical Euro lager sample probably a notch above the mainstream Euro lagers. Easy drinking, good for summer weather.

This is a delicate style that a brewer either nails . . . or absolutely fails at.
In the case of Goesser, I would say that they failed. Grolsch and Carlsberg manage to put their own little spin on the Euro-lager style, adding that extra edge that makes them wonderfully drinkable. And let's not get started at how the Germans and Czechs do lighter beers.
So . . . what is good about this beer? Well, it is delicate and drinkable. It lacks many of the flaws that I see in American macro-lagers, while still trying to be as close to water as possible.

Poured into Blue-branded pilsner glass. Poured a massive-thick head that vanished within a couple of minutes. Some lacing on the glass as I drink. Looks much like a Labatt Blue, but this is where the similarities end...
Smell is above average, with a huge hops presence and some wheat.
Taste is spectacular. Smooth...delicate even. A lot of hop bitterness, but very well balanced. Little aftertaste, which is impressive for a European lager. Delicious!
Mouthfeel is carbonated, but this is to be expected considering the style of beer. Very smooth and clean.
Drinkability is awesome. Sip it, chug it, whatever...this beer will accomodate any drinking style.
Being a fan of darker, fuller-bodied beers, I've been reluctant to try new lagers recently. This one has opened my eyes to what a lager should be. Interesting, light hearted... but not boring. Smell and taste are both refreshing, to say the least. It's a perfect summer beer.
It paired perfectly with some delicious homemade cheesy bread. I imagine it would be great with almost any other food. I would recommend this beer to anyone I know, as it far exceeded my expectations.

It looks nice but the taste and the smell are undesireable. Straw color with little body and a bitter aftertaste. Not a good Austrian beer, a weak lager and not a great representation of Austrian brewing. It is good on a hot day when it is served very cold, but for the price should be avoided and a wheat or abbey tripel could be more enticing.

When poured into my glass, the head was very small sized, white and it contained fine-sized bubbles that quickly diminished.The body was clear and there was very little carbonation present.The hue was yellow and there was no lacing.The nose was malty and the flavor was bitter, hoppy, tangy and it had an aftertaste that lingered.The mouthfeel was tingly and light-medium bodied.I was not real impressed with this beer.

No Daily Entrance For Six State Rallies?
Posted 24 September 2012 - 01:42 PM
I must say that I am writing this with a bit of disappointment. I have been a FMCA member for a few years now but have been a part of my parents membership for many years before that. We have yet to attend an actual rally but were looking forward to going to a six state rally in Shawnee, OK. that starts tomorrow.
The problem is that both my wife and I are both fairly young (30 and 31) and both have full time Monday through Friday jobs. We were planning to leave Thursday night and attend the rally either on Friday or Saturday or maybe both.
The advertisements for the rally only showed the full 5 day passport so I e-mailed the "rally master" but received no response. I called the FMCA office but no one there knew either. My parents showed up to the rally this morning and found out for me that they are not going to offer any daily passes, only the full passport which would be way out of the question for my wife and I and our 3 kids.
So my question is.....Are all rallies like this? I don't really see the point of being a member if I am not going to be able to attend functions for another 25 years!?!

I contacted Charlie Adcock, the vice president for the South Central area. Day passes are not being sold...they are being given away FREE! Charlie will be contacting your parents to let them know and, hopefully, he will be able to meet you and your family personally when you travel up to Shawnee from Amarillo!
Safe travels!

I would like to thank you and him for help in clearing up my confusion. He was also very generous in offering a spot to us free of charge. Again, thank you for your help. It is great to know that I will be able to enjoy future FMCA functions without having to wait until retirement.
And I do look forward to meeting you as well as Mr.Adcock sometime in the near future.
Thank you again.

Props: The Savage Dog Show
"I'm a force to be reckoned with. Anyone who thinks I'm not can step in the Octagon with me. I've got all kinds of stuff left to offer this industry and this sport. I'm not going anywhere for a long time. I haven't lost any athleticism. I haven't lost any of my ability. I've only gotten better, and I've only gotten smarter."
Former UFC Lightweight Champion Sean Sherk recently told The SDS on Sherdog Radio that he's still got a lot left in the tank, and is still one of the top lightweights in the sport. "The Muscle Shark" went as far as to challenge anyone who thinks otherwise to come and prove it in the cage. His fight with Evan Dunham at UFC 119 this coming Saturday will go along way in determining if this notion is fact or fiction. But before we get to fight night, let's get some of your reaction to Sherk's comments. Do you think Sean still has what it takes to compete against the top guys in the 155-pound division? Who do you like in this match up, Sherk or Dunham?

Chuck Norris Botnet Affects Linux Routers
Researchers at the University of Masaryk in Brno, Czech Republic, have detected a botnet that can hit Linux routers and DSL modems.
According to an article in the Prague Daily Monitor, researchers detected the trojan while working on securing the Czech national defense ministry, known as CYBER, against Internet attacks.
Head of the security project Jan Vykopal identified the suspect as a self-perpetuating trojan that first and foremost attacks Linux routers and DSL modems with weak usernames and passwords. The botnet was first detected in a D-Link device, Vykopal revealed in a PCWorld article. Next to MIPS-based Linux devices, the Chuck Norris botnet can also affect satellite TV receivers.
The botnet found its first martial arts moves from a server out of Italy, getting its name from a bit of source code with the line "in nome di Chuck Norris." It was immediately removed from the Net after its discovery and reporting. Since then, however, a number of copies have been identified worldwide. Infected devices are notably in Europe, South America and China, with the exact number not known.
The botnet's main objective is to gather passwords and access to Internet banking, online shops and related sites
Just Say No. The Chuck Norris botnet lives in the router's RAM, so a simple restart will remove it. The easiest way to avoid any further attacks through the Web interface is by using a strong password on the router or modem.

Jellies Galore!
March 24, 2011 | Tag(s): comb jellyfish, Jellyfish, lions mane jellyfish, spotted jellyfish, upside down jellyfish
By: Noel, Sea Otter Trainer
While jellies are one of our smallest exhibit areas they are also one of our most delicate. With over 75 animals representing 4 species of jellyfish this exquisite gallery is growing in numbers!
Our gallery, in recent years has been home to upside down jellies (Cassiopea andromeda)- so named because of their tendency to lie on their backs and look more like a sea anemone than a jellyfish. They live in muddy and swampy areas, mostly along the coasts of Florida. Upside down jellyfish can also get picked up by different crabs and ride on their backs. The crabs use them as a defense against predators. However, their sting is very minor.
In the last few weeks we have added 60 comb jellyfish (Mnemiopsis leidyi). Don't let the name fool you- they actually aren't part of the jellyfish phylum, Cnidaria, at all! However, they are closely related. They get their nickname because of all the tiny cilia (tube like feet) that they use for swimming, making them the largest animal to use cilia for locomotion. They are found throughout the world in just about every major marine environment. Unlike the upside down jellyfish, comb jellyfish do not have nematocysts and therefore cannot sting. To protect themselves they rely on sticky tentacles that tangle up their prey.
Another new addition- our spotted jellyfish (Mastigia papua). They are native to the Indo-pacific and are typically found in bays, lagoons or harbors. Spotted jellies have several small mouth openings on specialized tentacles called oral arms. Because they are filter feeders they can actually filter over 13,000 gallons of water a day through their body!
Last but not least we have our lions mane jellyfish (Cyanea capillata)! They are the largest known species of jellyfish. They can have a bell up to 7.5 inches in diameter. Don't let their size fool you- their stings are not fatal but can cause temporary pain. With such a big body I know what your thinking- what do these guys eat? Well as it turns out one of their favorite things is other jellyfish- in fact without other jellies in their diet they cannot survive. Here at the aquarium we supplement their diet with moon jellies.
Did you know that jellyfish are actually EXTREMELY fragile! That is why whenever you go to the aquarium you see them in tanks with a gentle circular current- so they don't hit the walls.
How old do you think a jellyfish can live? Would you believe that most jellies do not live more than 1-2 years!?
Jellyfish love to eat zooplankton (tiny animals). Here at the Audubon Aquarium, we feed our jellyfish brine shrimp or what you might know as sea monkeys! Pretty cool!
Stop by our jellyfish exhibits to see our newest additions!

Physicians for Human RightsUsing science and medicine to stop human rights violations
For Immediate Release
Zimbabwe's President Mugabe Must Stop Abuses Against Opposition Activists and Denial of Medical Care
Cambridge, Mass - 03/27/2007
In a letter to President Robert Mugabe of Zimbabwe, Physicians for Human Rights condemns the torture and assaults on and denial of medical treatment to members of the opposition party and other peaceful activists by police and security personnel. PHR cites cases from medical colleagues in Zimbabwe that describe dozens of injuries to the individuals, including fractures and soft tissue injuries, head injuries and a ruptured bowel due to blows to the abdomen by police. Some individuals were denied medical treatment, leading to more serious injuries. Denial of such care is an egregious violation of human rights.
PHR calls on President Mugabe to restore respect for human rights to all the people of Zimbabwe, including free expression, personal security, health and economic well-being.
Physicians for Human Rights (PHR) is an independent organization that uses medicine and science to stop mass atrocities and severe human rights violations. We are supported by the expertise and passion of health professionals and concerned citizens alike.
Since 1986, PHR has conducted investigations in more than 40 countries around the world, including Afghanistan, the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Rwanda, Sudan, the United States, the former Yugoslavia, and Zimbabwe.

In Western culture, a toast at weddings, anniversaries, and other life events is a ritual that shows honor, respect, congratulations, good health, happiness, and a hopeful future for the person or persons the toast is directed to. To make a coast, generally someone at the party or event gets everyone's attention, raises a glass, and proposes a toast. Others raise their glasses or touch their glasses together in agreement with the toast. A toast can be between many people and between just two people.
While toasts are generally sentimental and encouraging, they may also be humorous, serious, and depending on the event, rude or insulting. Some toasts are silent ones and just raising a glass to someone is a gesture of acknowledgement.
We thought the toast given to Gabrielle Giffords and Mark Kelly at their wedding by Robert B. Reich was a classic example of personalizing a toast. He said, "To a bride who moves at a velocity that exceeds that of anyone else in Washington, and a groom who moves at a velocity that exceeds 17,000 miles per hour."
Source: Judith Anderson. "Vows: Gabrielle Giffords and Mark Kelly." NYTimes.com. 12/2/2007.
We loved the toast the bride made to her groom in the movie Leap Year. The bride challenged the groom to never steal, lie or cheat. "But if you must steal," she says, "then steal away my sorrows. And if you must lie, lie with me all the nights of my life. And if you must cheat, then please cheat death ... because I couldn't live without you."
Source: Leap Year. IMDB.com. 2010.
A toast with similar wording is in Hitch when he says "Never lie, steal, cheat, or drink. But if you must lie, lie in the arms of the one you love. If you must steal, steal away from bad company. If you must cheat, cheat death. And if you must drink, drink in the moments that take your breath away."
Source: Hitch. IMDB.com. 2005.
There are many variations of this toast. Here are two more:
"May you never lie, steal, cheat or drink. But if you must lie, lie in each other's arms. If you must steal, steal kisses. If you must cheat, cheat death. And if you must drink, drink with us, your friends."
Source: Old Irish Drinking Toast. Yahoo.com.
"May you never lie, cheat or drink. But if you must lie, lie with each other. And if you must cheat, cheat death. And if you must drink, drink with us for we all love you and wish you both the love and happiness of which you deserve."

I went to this Porterhouse for a session of drinking my last afternoon in Dublin. I liked this one more than the Temple Bar Porterhouse. Good crowd of people and it seemed less touristy than the other one. They had all the same beers as the Temple Bar place but more guest taps from what I noticed, but I wasn't looking too hard. Great bottle selection, better than the other, and the service was fantastic. More of a chill place with Irish music at night. Highly recommended for some session chilling.

Great atmosphere, buzzing with lots of conversation but not too loud. Food was fantastic and the beer menu was extremely varied but of course we stuck to sampling the Porterhouse brews. Only downfall was the service wasn't overly friendly although it was efficient. Preferred the Temple Bar location for quality of service.

The Porterhouse in Dublin is a great place to grab a pint of craft beer in Ireland. The place is sort of dark with several stories to sit. We went to the second floor and were instantly greater by a waitress to get us beers.
After a while, the place became way too crowded and super loud, but I guess that'a going to happen anywhere on a weekend.
I would for sure recommend this to anybody that ever goes to Dublin.. The beer is good and a pretty cool bar.

Visited Porterhouse Central on my trip to Dublin. This is a crazy, hopping place that is really, really BIG. 4 or 5 stories with bars on all floors. There was a traditional/rock band playing on a stage floating somewhere between the second and third floor.
The place was absolutely packed. Even with all the floors, I had to vulture around and wait for a seat to clear, before my girlfriend and I could grab a seat. Forget about a waiter coming up, I went up to the bar to grab drinks and a menu.
I had a good portion of their house beers and was satisfied with most of them. Beers were served in the proper glassware at the right temperature and there was only one they had run out of (Celebration Stout). Pints were between 4.50 and 5.00. They also had an extensive bottle list of foreign and Irish beers.
Food was truly delicious. We ordered the porter pie and the sticky bangers. The pie was delicious and the bangers never seemed to end. Just great, great food. The prices were about average for Dublin: 6 sides and 11 mains.
I have to say, there is nothing to really complain about. This is everything you could want from a microbrewery. I fail to see how any night that involves the Porterhouse could be a bad one. This place just has too much positive energy to turn anyone off, and I really like how you can't get any macro stuff on tap (including Guinness). Highly recommended!

I went twice in the same night -- before and after a concert -- and the atmosphere was wildly different. From about 5-7PM, it was quite nice, a bit loud in spots, but quieter on the upper half (not actually up a flight of stairs, but up about three or four steps). Table service was sparse, but bar service was swift and very available. After the concert though (10:30-11:30) the pub turned into a club, and one could barely hear oneself think. Almost all the lights were off and people were screaming and dancing all over the floor.
The food was good, but not great. I had a smoked Mexican burger (bun, patty, guacamole, smoked bacon, and smoked cheese). The smoke cheese was VERY smoky, and the accompanying fries were chunky and warm, if underseasoned.
The selection, however, was grand. Not only were beers from more than a dozen countries represented (if only a token brew, like Brahma from Brazil), but Porterhouse offers about a dozen of their own concoctions. The US selections could have been better (mostly macrobrews) but offered a few niceties (Sierra Nevada, Goose Island IPA, et al.), while the Belgium selections were oddly heavy on lambics and fruit beers. All told, the range is perhaps unparalleled in Dublin.
Prices were fair, but still a bit dear. Still, a recommended stop for beer lovers in Ireland.

A large, bustling hall with lots of tables off to the sides. Everyone was preoccupied with the ManUnited vs. Liverpool match. There is a beer menu at every table, which runs down the most impressive selection I've seen in Ireland. Also lots of educational info provided in a fun, easy to browse beer guide. Food is great. I got a rare burger that was delicious. My girlfriend had Irish stew that was very big and pretty nice. Beers are great (especially the oyster stout) but it's a bit pricey. Worth a stop if you're sick of Guinness.

If you're in Dublin, I'd definitely rec checking this place out. It's in a hopping area of town and is enormous in the sneaky Irish pub kinda way, where you just keep discovering more stairwells and more seating. The food was tasty, I had a burger and chips. They also have a nice selection of their brews and some guest brews as well. The oyster stout was lovely on tap. Also GREAT glassware! I ended up visiting this pub twice in the week I was in Dublin, and will surely return on my next trip.

This review is from some ancient tasting notes from 2008. I reviewed the oyster stout, and the wrasslers (while in the bar nonetheless) but forgot to rate the bar itself.
Like others have said, multi level seating and it seems like seats are crammed everywhere. I came here twice during my 2 night and 3 day stay in Dublin. Gets pretty busy at night, but luckily it's on the outside edge of Templebar, incase you don't like crowds like me and need a quick escape to the Liffey.
I was in Ireland during St. Patrick's day (honest coincidence). I was in Limerick A.K.A. Stab City during St. Patrick's day proper, and Dublin was my last stop a few days later. For some reason that I do not recall (and I can't be arsed to look at a calendar to figure it out) this place was closed on my last day in Dublin, as were most other bars. Like in observance of St. Patrick's day? I thought it was ironic that a bar in Ireland would be closed on St. Patty's day, and I was pretty pissed off because practically everything else was closed too. Had I known this beforehand, I probably would have spent an extra day in one of the other cities I went to.

The Porterhouse is three levels and has an isolated smoking area. The place where the bands play is unobtrusive to customers and they tend to book decent music. There aren't as many toilets as there ought to be; you're limited to just the two gender-different ones on the bottom floor, which fill up quickly.
Services is generally pretty good early in the evening with the exception of the Porterhouse-brew-only bar on the first level, where it is often difficult to get noticed by the barstaff because they cater more to the main bar on the same level.
The food I saw looked good, but I didn't have any.
The selection is plain amazing, especially when you consider what is available on draught. Even the Bierhaus in Galway can't compare (their selection is nice but is limited to bottles). If you want a 14% ABV Austrian beer or a 3.7% Irish beer, they've got that and everything in between.
Their menu is artfully decorated and sorts beer by country, with a separate section for wine and champagne.
The prices are the worst part. The porterhouse's own beers run from about 4.30 Euro to over 5, which is terrible considering the quality of most of them (Brainblasta being the notable exception, though I haven't had their seasonal offerings). They have a "beer of the day" which can be had for 4 euro, which is an alright deal, but I still feel terrible paying that when the Porterhouse in Galway offers Guinness for 3 Euro Monday through Friday.
All in all, the selection justifies the price if you are serious about your beer. Casual publicans are best off hunting down better prices.

Man in coma after drinking quart of soy sauce
By Carter Nacke

I'm pretty sure the suggested serving reads, "Use sparingly."
According to NBC News, a 19-year-old man from Virginia went into a coma after consuming a quart of soy sauce on a dare.
[He] is the first person known to have deliberately overdosed on such a high amount of salt and survived with no lasting neurological problems.
When someone consumes an enormous amount of salt, water moves out of tissues and into the blood stream. This can cause the brain to shrink and bleed.
About one month after the event, the man was fine and doing well on college exams.
Maybe he should study reading labels.

In 2003 UMMS began our curriculum redesign process by defining interrelated competencies for undergraduate medical education. After extensive self-study, review of external models and contemporary initiatives we defined a new curriculum footprint that was unanimously endorsed by the EPC in 2008. Over the subsequent months we have defined a new vision for the curriculum that builds on our strengths, addresses the needs of the Commonwealth and the US healthcare system and supports students to identify, solidify and pursue their passions.
To learn more, we invite you to review the Foundations of Medicine Year 1 Plan, the Foundations of Medicine Year 2 Plan and related links.
