3.86/5 rDev +8.7%
Appearance: It has a nice jet black color to it. It has a nice thick tan head that dies down moderately and leaves some spotty lacing.
Smell: The aromas definitely give out hints of sweet roasted malts, coffee/espresso, some mocha and rich dark chocolate.
Taste: Like the aromas, it has some sweet roasted malts, bitter coffee/espresso notes, a hint of mocha and milk chocolate.
Mouthfeel: It has a low/med carbonation with a nice overall balance and feel.
Drinkability: It's a very smooth drinkable beer accompanied with good flavors and aromas.

3.95/5 rDev +11.3%
A - pitch black, thumb of thick dark brown had held nice, lacing was nearly a consistent ring
S - big dark chocolate notes, milder dark roast coffee, nutty and light licorice accents
T - like the nose the chocolate takes hold, then espresso and roasty falvours build, very mild dark fruits with touches of licorice
M - mediumish body that seems to thin out through the middle, has a sticky aspect to it but is bordering on a porter type feel, just a touch of heat in the chest
O - I really enjoy the big chocolate and roasty presence of this, seems like a dessert beer to me but would work as a nice cold day sipper

Props to joemcgrath27 for including this in our latest trade.
A - Pours pitch black, finger of head with some retention and no real lacing.
S - Rich milk chocolate, hints of fresh roasted coffee, marshmallows and graham crackers.
T - Much like the nose, loads of milk chocolate, the marshmallows come through alongside hints of espresso and a lingering burnt sugar and cocoa sweetness. Unique s'mores like aftertaste lingers on the palette.
M - Medium bodied, smooth and wet.
O - A very tasty coffee stout, definitely more on the sweeter side, which some might find offensive, but not me! Would love to have this stuff readily available, but that's a pipe dream.

12oz bottle from J.A. Moisan Epicier (Quebec City). 2.79. Best by 03/13. Served in a Southern Tier snifter.
Pours black with one and a half fingers mocha head that leaves small clumps of lace.
Smells of roasty creamed coffee and chocolate syrup.
Taste follows the nose. Very sweet chocolate syrup, creamed coffee, roast malts, vague dark fruit and an ever so slight hop-like pine bitterness on the back end. Flavor never deviates far from that initial syrup and sweetened coffee.
Medium full feel that approaches creamy with decent carbonation.
This stout is what it says it is but Sourhern Tier need not fear being replaced/usurped. The flavors seem just a little too artificial. I finished that bottle and feel there's no need to ever revisit this one. Ticked.

3.74/5 rDev +5.4%
341ml bottle, part of a mixed pack currently available in Alberta. Brewed with mocha coffee and cocoa beans, in homage to the beer-loving porters of the London docks back in the day.
This beer pours a solid black abyss, with ever so slight basal cola highlights, and three fingers of billowy, puffy light brown head, which leaves some sudsy chain lace around the glass as it evenly subsides.
It smells quite prominently of bitter, earthy coffee - sort of espresso-like - dry, flaky chocolate, roasted malt, and some watered down Kahlua warming notes. The taste is more forward with the bittersweet cocoa powder, the milky cold coffee character staying fairly solid, some toasted caramel malt still barely playing second fiddle, with a dash of spirituous heat, and some flat earthy, leafy hops.
The carbonation is pretty sedate, just a dull hum if you really look for it, the body a mostly sturdy medium weight, with a straight-up smoothness - a bit of milkiness aiding the cause. It finishes on the sweet side, the chocolate overload continuing its run, the zingy cuppa-Joe essences holding fast, and everything else just kind of completing their own private fade-out.
An agreeably tasty stout, beefed-up as it is with the dug-up relics of the original recipe. The coffee and cocoa flavours are strong, yes, but spread well enough around to even be appealing to those of us who avoid coffee shops like the plague, but still share the general public's affinity for all things chocolate.

Thanks for another great Quebec beer, Papat444. I can't believe I haven't been to Quebec yet! Must go soon.
Appearance. Pours black with half a finger of brown head.
Smell. Coffee liquer and a bit of hershy's chocolate syrup. along with a little malty roastyness.
Taste. Lots of bitter dark coffee, some quality dark chocolate, just a bit of fruityness, cardboard, and smokey dark malts. Just tons of flavour.
Mouthfeel. Medium+ body, medium+ carbonation. A bit sticky.
Overall. Tastes like a bunch of coffee went in to this one. Good stuff.

Got this at Intermarche St-Roch in Quebec City. Really good grocery store for craft beer in the city. Go there if you're looking for something.
From a bottle into a snifter
APPEARANCE: A black pour yields a small, medium looking, tan or light mocha colored head with decent retention. Head quickly fades to a faint wisp and ring. Black body with zero carbonation evident. A splotchy wisp and ring remain leaving dots of lacing down the glass.
SMELL: Roasted malts, nice mocha coffee aromas, and some good dark chocolate. Some vanilla caramel notes show up along side the mocha coffee. Bold enough, and interesting.
TASTE: Not nearly as good as the nose. Watery flavor. Some roasted malts, then some watery coffee flavors come afterwards. A mild and persistent aftertaste with watery coffee, some cream, a touch of chocolate, then some weak bitterness limps in as well. Watery and not enjoyable at all. Did I mention this is watery and lousy?
PALATE: Medium body and medium carbonation. Creamy enough, goes down fine and finishes dry on the palate. Feel is okay, but the flavor is just garbage. Slightyly atringent in the end.
OVERALL: Lousy. Watery, stale coffee with an overly astringent finish. Beer doesn't have to be like this. It can be good. This is not a good example of a coffee stout, so pass on this and try something else.

341ml bottle poured into tulip 29/3/12
A dark brown with cola at the edges, massive half glass of soapy mocha foam that lasts well down the glass leaving partial rings of lace deep down the glass
S chocolate milk and milk chocolate, mild char and smoke, chocolate covered cherries and raisins, smells pretty nice
T lots of coco powder I didn't smell and a little booze, everything else is still there just toned down a little
M enters fairly silky with the bubbles quickly fluffing it up leaving a creamy feel, big aftertaste of charred wood lasts for a while
O I almost loved the smell and I liked the taste, pretty decent stuff
I'm a little surprised this one didn't get a little more local love, pretty decent stuff at the end of the day, I suppose the price would determine if I drank this often or not. Thanks hoser for the opportunity

Bottle from Broue HAHA. From notes.
A - Poured black with brown one finger head. Carbonation coming up the sides leaves no lace and a film of retention.
S - Huge coffee notes with roasted malts too.
T - Less coffee, some cola, roasty, grainy, and some herbal hops.
M - Good carbonation, light to medium body and some bitterness.
O/D - Good aroma but not a highly drinkable stout. Average but acceptable.

Aerobic Grandma
Date: June 24, 2009
by: Molly Schechter
Exercise helps mind, heart, body and soul
When she was 58 years old, Gina Wexler weighed 241 pounds. An over-the-top balletomane and self-proclaimed Rudolf Nureyev groupie for some 20 years, she decided she was going to learn to dance. She studied with Gabriella Davarsh and Jack Hertzog, both at Broadway Dance, in New York City. But it wasn't easy. Nobody took her seriously as a student. She tore her Achilles tendon in her second class. But her idol, Nureyev, told her, "If you want to dance, you dance and you let them laugh." And dance she did.
Three years later, Wexler was a size four. She didn't weigh herself then; she just looked in the mirror and said, "You're hot." And she hasn't weighed herself since. Now 79, she is as crazy about the art form as ever — and is a committed ballet teacher, specializing in adults and seniors.
"I don't teach the way I was taught," she says. "I teach the way I learned."
For starters, she locks out the ballet police.
"We don't allow them in the building," Wexler says. "My students aren't here to become dancers; they are here to enjoy!"
She believes in visual instructions that give students something they can "see." For brush the foot forward, by example, she will explain, "Kick the rock away." Tendu-fondu is "tip your toe into the chocolate and feed the dwarf." She is a master of encouragement and "atta girls" and a passionate believer that "you can make a mistake and still be pretty."
Wexler believes that many mature women simply don't like the gym, and find it overly loud and purposeful.
"With ballet, they can relax more and accomplish the same goals," she says. "Most adults think they can't learn it, but if you can count to eight, you can do my class."
Her students make the point dramatically. Regulars in her senior class include a woman who has had three total-hip replacements.
Another suffered a ruptured aneurysm a few years back. Gina reports that student "didn't know up from down or left from right and wasn't expected to live." Today, that same student takes classes three times a week — when she's not traveling. This is not to suggest that ballet class is some kind of miracle cure but to make the point that it is far more accessible than most adults imagine.
For Wexler, dance was a natural choice because she comes from a theatrical family. It includes (many generations ago) one Emmanuel Schikaneder who wrote the libretto for Mozart's "Magic Flute." Wexler's grandmother danced in the same companies as Pavlova and Nijinsky. Both her parents were dancers with the Michael Mordkin Troupe, the predecessor of today's American Ballet Theatre. And her father, Eddie Brinkman, afterwards became one of the founding talents at CBS, working as stage manager and finding talent for "The Ed Sullivan" show.
Wexler moved to Sarasota and started teaching here in 1996. She made the one professional appearance of her career with the Sarasota Ballet of Florida, in the character part of the midwife in "Zal and Rudabeh." She is known locally and affectionately as "Gina ballerina." And the years have only increased her enthusiasm for her favorite art form that she believes is "exercise for the mind, heart and soul, as well as for the body."

Last year's E3 saw Nintendo show off a more slightly-more-primitive version of their next-generation console, the Wii U. However, after another year under the hood – and just months from its Winter 2012 launch – the new system now looks ready to appear in final form.
The company revealed the final design of the Wii U's Tablet controller during their pre- E3 Nintendo Direct video earlier tonight. And while the controller is still without an official name, it does boast some impressive changes.
The new controller also boasts some new features – the most impressive of which is a TV button. Users can press this button to switch to their TV and use the Wii U Tablet Controller as a remote control. The controller will also feature NFC technology use in Skylanders.
Nintendo also unveiled the Wii U Pro Controller – offering a more traditional design for those who would rather not use the Tablet. The Pro Controller uses a design similar to that of the Xbox 360 controller, though the analog sticks are placed symmetrically like the PlayStation 3′s DualShock 3. It looks like Nintendo found the "best of both worlds", so to speak. The controller also has USB port, opening up the ability to do away with batteries. This could also allow gamers to plug the controller into a PC, though a third party would probably have to make software to support that.
With the Wii U, Nintendo is doing something really special – it's giving players choice. Those who prefer a traditional controller can use the Pro controller, while those who want to make use of the Tablet's features can still do so. The Classic Controller was also available for the Wii, however few games used it, forcing many to play with the Wiimote. Both controllers look very comfortable nonetheless, but it's still great to give gamers options.
What do you think of the controller redesign?

Website Design
I design and develop websites for a wide variety of clients.
I favor the Wordpress platform, but have recently started
looking into getting my arms around the Drupal platform.
Regardless of the platform, the principles of good UX design
are paramount. Clear navigation, ease of use and simplicity
do not equate with boring or plain website design.
My growth in digital design over the past several years
has been pretty remarkable. As the tools have improved,
the rate of growth has accelerated. It's rewarding work.
See my portfolio page for examples of my web design work.
Logo Design
The client sells and installs back up power systems.
The möbius band concept came pretty quickly.
I'm happy with the way the concept was executed.
The client is thrilled with it.
My long document design and production skills are very strong.
This is an annual report of sorts, for the city of North Little Rock.
The design and production schedule for this piece was very
compressed, and it had to be completed in a real big hurry.
The final 92 page book was produced as a printed piece and
also distributed as an on-line ebook. A link to that is inside.
Illustration Design
This is a vector drawing
of my wife, Kyran Pittman,
created in Adobe Illustrator.
Then, I brought it over
into Adobe Photoshop
for texture and depth.

I pulled the shades down, turned the air conditioner up, and typed the intersections that define Back of the Yards—named for its proximity to the Union Stockyards—into the search box. I was in the early stage of a nervous breakdown, obsessively attempting to revivify the past, the only place where, I believed, continuity existed. Fifty-First and Loomis was my embarkation point: the intersection where our family doctor's office was located. An unfilled prescription, from 1965, that I'd found in my deceased mother's jewelry box provided the office's address. My mother and I had had a contentious relationship, but that summer I fantasized about opening her grave and throwing her skeletal arms around me—"I thought even the bones would do," to quote Plath. I used the objects from the jewelry box (grocery lists, a Revlon "Moondrops" powder compact, old Sears charge cards, blue crystal rosaries, a Coty lipstick) to reconstruct her existence, and finding that prescription was like finding the key to a long-locked door.
Going to the doctor had been a kind of family outing—every three months, to get my grandmother's diabetes checked—and I wasn't sure if I had dreamed those odd excursions to that tiny office. My mother would go downstairs to get my grandmother dressed: clean hairnet; heavy girdle and thick support pantyhose; rhinestone brooch; nice dress instead of a stained shift; black orthopedic shoes instead of house slippers; and dentures, from the glass on the bathroom sink. Then she'd run upstairs to get my sister and me ready, dabbing Chantilly perfume on our wrists. Read More »
Reading Through the Leaves
November 5, 2013 | by Amy Grace Loyd
I was recently asked by a Canadian online magazine to visit with the books on my shelves, to find what I've hidden in them over the years—old boarding passes, postcards, grocery lists, a love letter never sent. Yes, I found all these things, but mostly I found tree leaves in my books. The editor wanted a picture, fifty or so words, but I kept writing because it bears explaining why I do this—how I take leaves back to my apartment to identify them, compare them to pictures in other books; and once I've named them, or sometimes because I've failed to, how I feel compelled to keep the specimens—from ash trees, lindens, London planes, honey locusts, and as-yet unknown (to me) trees all over Brooklyn. They are slipped between pages of novels, story and essay collections, a biography, books I have read and often reread, and when I open them later, forgetting myself and the last day I read that book and where, and under what tree, the leaves reenact the fall, not just one leaf but several, all different sorts, falling, or it's the fragile end of a branch of a pinnate leaves that's waiting for me, as here in this photo.
I do this in part because Brooklyn, and Brooklyn Heights in particular, where I've lived for over twenty years now, has always felt a refuge from a New York City urbanity that is unabashed and demanding, denuded of softness. The streets in Brooklyn Heights in spring, summer, and every year longer into fall are canopied by the copses of trees, reaching for and finally catching each other. These streets feel like invitations to secrets—the right to secrets—to full breaths and quiet even in this city. The other reason I do this, will always do this, owes to my grandfather, who was an arborist, or tree surgeon, in Vermont. Truth be told, he taught me nothing about trees. I was too young to ask, and in my teens, approaching my twenties, when I did think to inquire, he didn't seem to care to talk about all the trees he'd pruned, saved, and declared beyond saving, especially during the height of the Dutch elm disease in Vermont, when he and his crew carved up hundreds of elms and carted them away for burning.
He wanted to talk about his life before he was married and settled with children and responsibility in Bennington. He'd been a salesman, an itinerant in the 1920s, and lived in rooming houses up and down the East Coast, from New York to Florida, with other young men similarly and mostly happily unmoored. He saw in my youth his own and described men he'd protected from bigger men, men he'd hit, drank with, women who'd been kind, whose faces now were simply the faces of angels, that out of reach. He died when I was nineteen before my sisters and I had all the right questions to ask, so now I can't stop asking when I look up from my reading on a city bench or stoop: Is that a Chinese scholar tree? Is that one a Norway maple? I asked recently while reading Grace Paley's collected stories, reading I first did in the nineties and still do fairly often now, for the immediacy and singularity of Paley's voice, her frankness and energy (partly a gift of city living and loving), and her humor even when confronting human sorrows and disappointments. The book is full of dust from leaves, like the ones pictured here, that want to disintegrate. I won't let them. I close the book and reseal them—keep the conversation going.
Amy Grace Loyd's debut novel, The Affairs of Others, was published by Picador on August 27. Loyd is an executive editor at Byliner Inc. and was the fiction and literary editor at Playboy magazine. She worked in The New Yorker's fiction department and was associate editor for the New York Review Books Classics series. She has been a MacDowell and Yaddo fellow and lives in Brooklyn, New York.
Second Chances
February 13, 2013 | by Tupelo Hassman
My husband hung up the wind chimes today. This doesn't sound like a big deal, as my husband is a competent man and gravity is working as it should. It is a big deal, though, because these are big wind chimes, eight feet tall, made of steel tubes that gong when the wind catcher catches. They aren't beautiful to look at, nor beautiful to hear, unless you really dig church, but they are beautiful to me, and now that they're up, after two weeks at our new house, I know we are home. Again. This is our third move in five years.
I inherited the wind chimes from my folks. My parents had the sort of love affair that required them to marry each other twice. This would be more romantic if there wasn't a divorce in the middle of that, say, or if they weren't in the process of a second divorce when my mother died. Where some couples have trial separations, my parents had trial marriages. The family agrees that if these two were still alive today, they would be going for yet another round.
On the second try, they moved to Washington state, to a house overlooking the Hood Canal, a tiny, perfect part of the Puget Sound. For the nine months they managed to keep their romance together this time, the house was alive with the magic of second chances. Where the first album I ever remember hearing is Paul Simon's Greatest Hits loud on Pops's eight-track, the Washington trial marriage, fifteen years later, was perfectly timed with the release of Simon's Graceland. The house rang with Pops's voice singing along to you "You Can Call Me Al," a pointed reference to a past love of Mom's. This Al had died years before, but death brings no end to competition in marriages such as this, and Pops took more pleasure from it than he should have. Mom loved Simon's "Diamonds on the Soles of Her Shoes," and would insist the song was about me, one of the prettier riddles I inherited. Read More »
In Search of Lost Time
October 15, 2012 | by Anna Wiener
It is, all told, a strange summer. Down the street from my apartment, children play inside of plastic bags. Glaciers shed ice the size of Manhattan. Scientists find that sharks smell in stereo. Horoscopes are cited as primary sources at social gatherings. Restlessness flows. For three consecutive nights I dream exclusively of vacuuming a garden snake.
On a Sunday afternoon I detour from fondling impractical kitchenware at Pearl River Mart and go where I go when I need to stop time: to visit my grandfather at his loft on West Broadway. He is eighty-four, a sculptor, a Southerner, tall and round bellied, deaf in one ear from an adult case of mumps. His face bears an impressive mustache and bifocals as large and wide as safety goggles. Alzheimer's is smoothing the lines of his memory, a stone turning in water.
He has lived in this apartment since 1970, and from what I can tell it has hardly changed; it could easily be a soundstage from an early Woody Allen film, with its leather seats shaped into dripstones by decades of party guests, its ceramics and abstract art, the copy of Joe Brainard's I Remember that had taken up permanent residence in the bathroom long before it carried any personal symbolism. The front half of the loft is still a studio, with a meticulously labeled array of tools and materials, despite the fact that these days my grandfather is physically, psychically unable to work. For the last few years I've kept keys under a conditionality: just in case. In this case it only means that I let myself in.
"What are you up to today?" I ask my grandfather, to which he replies, "Just trying to have a brilliant idea."
A Father, A Daughter, A Novel
September 26, 2011 | by Jesse Browner
A basic but serviceable simile for memory is the mirror: you look into it and it shows you as you once were. Most of us recognize that the analogy is simplistic at best, and the novelist reaching into his past for material knows it better than most.
I was a fifty-year-old writer trying to breathe life into the character of a seventeen-year-old boy. It was a daunting prospect, perhaps, but I was not to be put off by the presumptuousness or difficulty of the task; after all, inventing people is what I'm (occasionally) paid to do. I naturally intended to draw on my every memory of myself as a seventeen-year-old. Like me, my protagonist would be somewhat bookish but in no way a nerd; deeply introspective but not withdrawn; a peripheral figure on the margins of the in-crowd, longing to be admitted yet vaguely contemptuous of the object of his desire; chaotically libidinous but physically uncertain of himself; and above all a strenuously ethical being, ever seeking and ever falling short of the moral high ground. He would make a rather handsome character, I thought. Read More »
Staff Picks: Bookplate Porn; Peanut Butter and Scotch
August 19, 2011 | by The Paris Review
I spent probably an hour paging through Martin Hopkinson's Ex Libris: The Art of Bookplates at the Strand last week, then went back and bought it. If there's such a thing as bookplate porn, this gorgeous book is the ultimate. —Sadie Stein
I've been reading Robert Gottlieb's Lives and Letters, a wonderful collection of essays on some of the century's most illustrious figures. The portraits of the women, like Sarah Bernhardt, Isadora Duncan, and Margot Fonteyn, particularly sparkle. But my favorite is the short piece on Diana Vreeland, who once said, "Peanut butter is the greatest invention since Christianity," about her daily lunch: a whole-wheat PB-and-marmalade sandwich, with a glass of scotch. —Ali Pechman
Adam Zagajewski's Unseen Hand came out in June, and I wish I hadn't waited until now to read it. —Clare Fentress
Between the Acts, Virginia Woolf's final novel, was edited by Leonard and published posthumously with his revisions. Cambridge's new annotated edition not only restores the original draft, but also provides a rich halo of context. –Deirdre Foley-Mendelssohn
While a staff pick praising the work of the Review's Southern editor John Jeremiah Sullivan feels a lot like Lemmy wearing a Motorhead shirt, Sullivan's forthcoming collection of essays, Pulphead, is hands down the best thing I've read all year. Sullivan's voice is straight out of bar stories, and his subjects—from Christian rockers at Creationfest to the Indiana origins of Axl Rose to proto–Tea Party protesters—line up for comic exploitation like so many fish in a barrel. But at the moment when lesser writers would pull the trigger and snigger, Sullivan steps back and asks you to understand the people he encounters on their own terms. Which is not to say the essays won't have you laughing louder than public decency allows—because they will. But it's their rare combination of bracing intelligence and empathy that stays with you. —Peter Conroy
My most anticipated summer film: Don't Fear the Internet. Next step is getting cast in the sequel to the Facebook movie (a girl can dream). —Mackenzie Beer
After discovering that Netflix is streaming a handful of films by Hong Kong maestro Johnnie To, I went straight for The Heroic Trio, a kinetic superheroine flick starring Michelle Yeoh, Anita Mui, and Maggie Cheung. Yes, it is that good. —Nicole Rudick
If you have a moment, try Mavis Gallant's Granta essay on "Memory and Invention." –S.S.
Passive-aggressive little notepad, you remind me of my fifth-grade teacher. Other than that, I have no theories as to what's going on here. Disturbing and fun! —A.P.

"I was just trying to give a different look to the shooters and mess with their eyes a little bit," Fleury said after practice. "It didn't work out well. I couldn't see."
I think the most HILARIOUS part of this whole thing is what Crosby had to say about Fleury and his Kermit mask!!
"I am not surprised he did that," Sidney Crosby said. "He talks about that a lot. I think he was pretty happy to be a frog.I can definitely see the green tights for Kermit the Frog (YEP - skinny green frog legs), but Cat Woman? Only MAF!!
"For some reason he is always wearing tights with his costumes," Crosby joked. "I don't know why that is. He was Cat Woman before and now he was a frog with leggings so maybe it just means he likes to wear tights. I don't know."

As the semester wraps up, I find myself rushing to get everything done on time and organize myself for the weeks ahead. I thought that registration would be a simple thing; and while it was for me, my friends continue to have issues with it. Some are going to be continuing to work out registration into the first week of next semester.
On top of a few back-to-back exams next week, I'm starting to look into grad schools to apply to for Spring 2015. Navigating this process isn't as easy as I thought it would be. I decided to try to find a few good grad programs in my chosen field (Masters in Social Work) that don't require the GRE, both because of the cost of prep courses/materials and the cost of the exam itself, along with the time required to study for it. I know that skipping the GRE isn't an option for everyone, but it definitely pays off to research some grad school options that are more tailored to your interests that might not require it. If I'd chosen Psychology for grad school, I would need the GRE, but because Social Work more closely fits my interests and is in the same ballpark, I can get by without the GRE. I highly suggest looking into skipping it.
Some sage words of advice (that I should take note of myself more often): eat breakfast, or some sort of food before noon; take a break and wander down to the shore at least once a week; and above all, cut your friends some slack. We're all stressed out right now.

From the Curate
In the years when I was a teacher, the end of August was an incredibly anxious time. I was kicking myself for not having done more lesson preparation over the holidays, whilst dreading the effort of learning new names, and establishing discipline over new classes. And when I thought of all the beginning of year meetings ahead of me, I'd pretty much lose the will to live.
A week or so into September, and it was a different story. I was back to work - winging it, perhaps, but getting my teeth into it, inspired by the newness, no longer afraid.
Your experience of September might be quite different, but for many of us, it still feels like the start of a new year. It's a time to start new initiatives in our businesses, new patterns of activity in our families, new evening classes or hobbies.
As you sink your teeth into work of whatever kind, remember that your church is there to support you if you find yourself asking things like: 'Is this really what I'm on earth to do?' 'How do I resolve the ethical dilemmas I face at work?' 'How can I prioritise things other than money?'
Harvest Festivals, in roundabout ways, encourage us to deal with some of these sorts of questions, as we honour those who work in food production, and think about questions of food distribution. Hope you'll be able to join in your village church's Harvest celebrations.
Whatever your line of work, we are planning this autumn, to use church services to help you think about how your faith (or lack of it) influences your effectiveness in the workplace and your work/life balance. So do join in the discussion, and feel free to contact Philip or me if there are any particular issues you'd like to discuss.
We want Sunday morning to make a big impact on Monday morning.

This house was so clean, well decorated, and close to the beach &the Village. The owner thought of everything we would need. I loved the backyard...the street was very quiet &the beach access wasn't busy. One morning a neighbor's adorable dogs ran over to greet us & give us loves...We were missing our pet at home. I loved our vacay there and can't wait to go back!!!
Owners response: Thank you Nicole for appreciating my home and all the hard work everyone puts into making it the pleasure it was for you.

Immaculate and well decorated
Review submitted: April 11, 2012 Date of arrival: March 26, 2012
This Siesta Key rental was delightfully more than advertised. The home is even more spacious than the photos can show. It's is quite comfortable, the decor looks professionally done, and it was very clean. We were pleasantly surprised with all the amenities and how fabulous the beach turned out to be. The house has everything you'll want or need for a vacation stay.
Owners response: Thank you for such a wonderful review. It makes the work and time spent so worth while. I hope you will consider my home again if and when you decide to come back to Siesta Key. Warm regards, Karen

This home was a great rental, the house is immaculate and updated with great furnishings. Lots of space, completely stocked kitchen and the location is quiet and a short walk to an awesome beach as well as getting into town. The owner provides everything you need to enjoy the beach as well as two cruiser bikes. We hated to leave. Tom and Mary
Owners response: Dear Tom & Mary, This is my third try to thank you for your great review. I was beginning to wonder if the things that be would let me respond. I am so happy that you enjoyed your stay in my home. I continue to try and improve & tweak things each year to make my life and that of my guests more rewarding. Please think of me again if you decide to come to Siesta Key. Warm wishes, Karen

What a place!
Review submitted: June 21, 2011 Date of arrival: June 6, 2011
We had the opportunity to take our two young children to Karen's beautiful home in early June 2011. This house is situated about a block and a half from the beach - Easy walking distance with the wagon provided. It's also close to Siesta Village - Probably driving distance unless you rent a couple of bicycles (the home has one provided).
The house description and pictures do not do it justice - It is immaculately kept and had all the items that we needed to make our stay enjoyable. All we had to do is buy the groceries! The house also gets you beach ready upon arrival by providing beach chairs(4) and umbrellas. We left a boogie board behind for future families to enjoy.
Our stay was mostly spent enjoying the beautiful beaches of Seista Key, but we also made a day trip to Disney World (2 hours) and spent an afternoon on Lido Beach (30 minutes). There are a number of good restaurants in the area - Lelu's was our favorite breakfast spot and next door is Gilligans - a great place to end your day.
This was by far one of the best vacations we've ever taken and will be returning just as soon as we can! Highly recommended!

What a lovely home. We enjoyed every minute in this Siesta Key Home. Everything was new and in great condition. It had everything needed for an extended stay and the only thing we had to take was our clothes. For us it was an easy walk to the beach and we even walked to Siesta Village. If you enjoy the privacy of a home and like to walk this is a perfect place.

I noticed on twitter some chatter earlier today about the fact that Shailene Woodley who is about to cover EW with her new film Divergent (which looks like it could be a real successor to The Hunger Games) will no longer be a part of the second Amazing Spiderman movie playing MJ Watson.
Earlier, during filming, Woodley's photos were released, and she is rising star and so it seemed that her character would be central to the plot. It is also worth noting that Sony is investing heavily in the Spiderman franchise (as if we didn't already know that) by setting the release dates for The Amazing Spiderman 3 and 4 for 2016 and 2018.
But back to the 2014 film... We don't know exactly why AN ENTIRE ROLE WAS CUT from the film but one colleague speculated that the movie was overcrowded and couldn't handle another character. Well sure, the film is overcrowded with male villains, as my colleague Scott Mendelson said on twitter. These are the villains slated for the Amazing Spiderman 2: Vulture, Green Goblin, Rhino, Electro.
So the idea we get here is that there can be numerous male villains and other male parts but there really can only be one female character of substance allowed onscreen. God forbid we should take any of the attention away from all the male bonding and fighting going on with our girly words and needs.
So many things piss me off about this, but most especially, how easy it is just delete a whole female character from the film and move her to another film. That just confirms that characters written for women are not integral in the plot and if you cut them, it just won't matter.
I want female characters that matter and that if they are cut it is a problem because then things won't make sense and you can't get away with it.
The irony for me is just recently how Amy Pascal -- whose studio produces and releases the Spiderman films -- talked about the importance of having female characters who are integral to the plot. Here's a reminder of what she said:
The most important thing in the job that we do here is to make movies about women where they are characters that have consequences in the story. They can be villains, they can be protagonists, I don't care but their movements, their actions what they do in the plot has to actually matter. And that's the most important thing because young girls coming up are going to see that they matter that your not an appendage to someone else- that you're not married to the person, not their sister or friend or girlfriend, you actually are the plot.
Sounds like she needs to practice what she preaches.
The Amazing-Spider Man 2 Cuts Mary Jane Watson And Promises Heartbreak (CinemaBlend)
Shailene Woodley's Mary Jane Has Been Cut From 'Amazing Spider-Man 2,' Won't Appear Until Third Movie (The Playlist)
Jason | June 20, 2013 8:49 PM
Apparently math skills aren't required when blogging complete BS. Spider-Man is going to feature Emma Stone and Felicia Jones. Last I looked that's TWO WOMEN. It seems that knowledge of Spider-Man is also unnecessary when writing about..um...Spider-Man because Mary Jane isn't remotely relevant to "The Death Of Gwen Stacy" storyline. Mary Jane wasn't even in the original fucking story because the story is about GWEN STACY, NOT MARY JANE.
Personally, I couldn't be happier. I prefer a woman play the part of Mary Jane as opposed to Woodley and her five O'clock shadow. Mary Jane was a model, a night club dancer, an actress. When one thinks of Mary Jane they should be thinking a young Julianne Moore or a young Christina Hendricks. Someone that actually has sex "appeal" rather than someone "A Sexual". One shouldn't have to spend a few minutes wondering if MJ is a dude or a transgender.
I know this is hard for MJ/Peter "shippers" to understand because of their tunnel vision regarding MJ but there was an actual period in Peter's life when the love of his life was someone NOT MJ. However, just because you have to wait for MJ to appear in a story about a period in Spider-Man's life when MJ WASN'T IN IT, doesn't mean you'll never get to see her. I'm sure she'll be all over the third film. Besides, I'd rather see Spider-Man's entire rogues gallery make it to film before MJ does. And yes, I'm including the Kangaroo and the Gibbon (for which Woodley might be confused).

You know not of what you speak. Woodley's participation in this sequel was little more than a cameo to set up her more central role in the third movie. You would've known that if you had bothered to research the situation (of course, that would've spoiled your fun of getting all indignant). Sadly, this is just another case of you seeing what you wish to see - reality be damned.
ska-triumph | June 19, 2013 4:26 PM
It's truly ridiculous. So much so, coming up right after the sequel announcements, it had to be reported up front ASAP. This franchise had one messy rushed start and it looks like the economically-burdened desperation to keep Spidey going will keep it so. How do you not lock Woodley in? If JLaw and KStew could do two branded action franchises, surely she can.
And as for GWEN being the only female lead, fighting for quality Spidey time versus FOUR villains, this is par for the course with Sony. The first film couldn't help but have GWEN everpresent in PETER's adventure - the captain's daughter, the whip-smart girl at school, the intern of the mentor-enemy - so who knows what narrative burdens she'll carry in displacement of a real character. Lucky Stone's casting gave the role depth.
As for Woodley: their loss.
Thanks for sharing this great news. Iâm sure people come to like your blog and gain benefit from

Groups across Georgia are getting ready to hold prayer vigils and rallies Monday to protest the scheduled execution of Warren Hill.
Hill is sentenced to die for the 1990 beating death of a fellow inmate at Lee State Prison. Hill's lawyers and the NAACP are arguing the execution should be stopped because he is too mentally disabled to understand his crime.
A rally is scheduled in Savannah Monday at 5:30 p.m. at the Chatham County Courthouse on Montgomery Street.
This will be Georgia's second execution since the execution of Troy Davis.

text: I noticed this in Buster Olney's blog this morning in reference to the articles this morning about trading Tex. "I can tell you this: There are many executives who are skeptical that the Rangers will be able to do this with any satisfaction. The value of prospective free agents is plummeting, and because Teixeira will become a free agent after 2008 and is represented by Scott Boras, teams are going to be reluctant to part with any kind of deep package of prospects for him. Rival executives wonder if GM Jon Daniels will be able to make any kind of deal that would be acceptable to owner Tom Hicks and to the team's fan base. In other words, if the Rangers get only a couple of decent prospects for Teixeira, or one or two decent major leaguers -- and no real developing stars -- is that enough? Because that may be all the Rangers can get."

The dog days of August are upon us.....
You can tell by the same worn out discussions about what should've or what should currently be happening in free agency.
I'm not exactly enthusiastic about the players who were brought in, but I can't say, and I don't understand how anybody else can say that these are horrible moves when we haven't seen this currently assembled team play basketball yet. For this same reason, I also can't understand how anyone can be extremely optimistic.
While it may sound good to try and "win" free agency, what good is it exactly doing to sign a bunch of slightly better, more expensive players who will achieve nothing more during the playoffs than maybe getting past the first round? It makes no sense to me. I also can't help but think back to the paper tiger that the Lakers built last summer who ended up having to claw their way into the playoffs in game 82....like I said, it's too early to pass ANY judgment.
I know some people are a little (or a lot) upset because we now supposedly can't "tank" because the team is "too good", but I honestly don't see why you can't.
Again, I'm not willing to judge this offseason or this roster until games start being played, but if we're actually going to be counting on guys like Gustavo Ayon and Pero Antic, who have been described by some as "garbage players", DeMarre Carroll, who is supposedly the equivalent to Joe Smith or Vladamir Radmanovic, Elton Brand, who is too old and too finished to be counted on, and Paul Millsap, who isn't even a 2nd tier free agent in a horribly weak free agent class to be meaningful contributors on the court this year, then how does that not sound like a team who will be "tanking", whether purposely or just by circumstance?
Some factors that haven't been discussed as much as much as whether or not signing Paul Millsap over Al Jefferson was a good move or not, and whether it makes us better than the Bobcats, which should really should be discussed are......
- How much better does Jeff Teague get in a new offense in which he is going to be counted on to truly lead?
- Does Al Horford have what it takes in order to become a legitimate #1 option, or does he fail at it much like Josh Smith did a year ago?
- When does Lou Williams come back, and when he does, how long does it take him to play at his pre-injury level again?
- How good is Paul Millsap and what will his role on the team be?
- Will Dennis Schröder be effective enough in real games to make a positive impact?
Then there is the good old factor of team chemistry.....Will this team even have any? And if so, will they have enough of it?
Those are all things we have to take into account before saying this team is "too good to tank" or that this isn't "the best possible roster".
As far as Danny Ferry's plan goes, I know a lot are going to disagree with me, but I think he does have a plan, and it isn't to collect assets to trade for a "superstar" like the Rockets did.
I believe that "Plan A" is to see if the team plays well on the court, and if the team sucks on the court, then "Plan B" is to trade off the veterans (yes, the ones we're currently complaining about having) for young, unproven talent who don't have extremely high trade value like a Tobias Harris or a MarShon Brooks. Not these guys, but young guys on playoff teams who don't get a lot of run.
We should all know by now that there was no contender to be built this offseason, so any discussion about how this free agency period has turned out shouldn't really be that big of an issue RIGHT NOW.
Now, if a 35 year old Kyle Korver making $5 million in 2016 is stopping us from signing the "superstar" that will take us to a championship, by all means we can point back to this offseason and say that Danny Ferry "F'd up". Right now, it's just too early to say much about that deal other than to say that Korver may be a bit overpaid.
The last point I want to bring up is next summer...
How exactly does the signings made this offseason stop us from being able to get a "superstar" next summer any more than if we had gone after slightly better players? Are we completely ignoring the fact that those other players would still be under contract next summer too? You can't get who you can't pay.
And can we please stop with this whole "We can't get superstars" thing?
Ask yourselves two questions.....
- Other than Dwight Howard, who we knew (or should have known) wasn't coming here for an entire year, what "superstar" didn't come here?
- When was the last time before this offseason have the Hawks had cap space to sign a "superstar" in free agency, pursued a "superstar", and had their advances rebuffed by said "superstar"?
I may be underreacting (if that is a word), but I truly believe that it is way too early to be overreacting, whether it is optimism or pessimism.

Cuz that'd be nice
Dis ninja hard as ice
Such as liquid kickin' it live
at a sack-shrivelin' temp of -135
Calculate dat shit on any scale you like
In Celsies or straight-up Fahrenhizzies
Flashin' blizzy, mad tight, stab you widda kitchen knife
Gordy ... go get the muh-fuckin provisions, you morphodite
It would be rude to ask a favor while offering nothing in return, so I tapped into my "Gangsta J" persona, which once propelled me to the prestige of having the tightest rap posse in my entire 7th-grade home room. Troof/reckanize/WHUT playa, etc.
Seriously though ... hi. My schedule has always been frantic but I just questionably took on a 3rd job. In the last 2 weeks, I've worked anywhere from 12-17 hours and slept an average of 4-5. Gangsta J need'a sleep mo, son.
So, since I heard a rumor that you fucks actually do place a lot of emphasis on Dissections, I'm entertaining ideas to make the process quicker and more concise. I think I have to eliminate my unbreakable habit of being all artsy-fartsy and/or outlining the fighters' recent or overall history. I'm much more of a creative writer and like to satisfy that urge as well as lend some uniqueness or personality to the piece, but, especially for prelim cards with anywhere from 5-9 fights, I'd like to whittle it down to just the facts ma'am.
I thought I'd consult with y'all because, really, I write these for you. *cue dramatic piano music accented by emotion-inspiring violin* I was thinking something like B-Hem does at MMAMania: more of a bullet-style with a list of each fighters' biggest wins/losses and/or his recent 5 fights.
However ... overstep, and we rap battle. Dat be curtains, cuz I spew poison when I babble.

Styling the 2nd City Part 1
Norma Webster Salon, Spa and Cosmetics has been a staple in the Jamaican beauty industry for, incredibly, almost four decades. The salon, which opened on May 3, 1973 with two workstations at Fort Street in Montego Bay, later moved to the Baywest Shopping Centre and in 1996 opened a second salon at the swanky Half Moon Shopping Centre. It is now located at Fairview and distributes its own line of cosmetics, hair products and candles. "It's a logical next step," shares the indomitable Webster. "Branding is extremely important".
The salon also aims to take a more holistic approach to the wellness experience of its clients. "I want my customers to feel at home at the salon." It appears they do, as many clients identify the Norma Webster Salon as an oasis from the daily stresses of life.
Webster, who is the recent recipient of the Bureau of Women's Affairs Jamaica 50 award for Outstanding Contribution in Cosmetology and Wellness, remains truly humbled by the growth of her business. "I try to take everything one day at a time. But what I am most proud of thus far is the excellent reputation we've maintained over the years and the clear continuity of the business through my daughter Monique, who is also highly trained in the field." Webster's daughter Monique was trained in Toronto.
Webster, who early in her career understood the importance of adding to her range of services, was one of 15 pioneers who sought training in the identifying and treating disorders of the scalp and hair, and became in 2001 western Jamaica's only certified trichologist. "We studied for four years by correspondence course with the Institute of Trichology in Alabama. The lab work was, however, conducted in Alabama." It was no walk in the park, Webster recalls: "The course of study was extensive and in-depth. Candidates needed a minimum of five years' cosmetology experience, and chemistry, anatomy, nutrition and physiology were compulsory." Webster's passion for hair, which started while she was a student at Mount Alvernia High and continued as she apprenticed with noted hairstylist of the time Dorothy Gourzong Vendryes, gathering more training and experience with top brands in hair care like Vidal Sassoon, Redken and Soft Sheen, has not waned. Indeed, this past president of the Kiwanis Club of Providence helped to establish the cosmetology programme at Montego Bay Community College.

Two men guilty of killing stranger after fight in McDonald's queue
Two men will be sentenced on Monday for shooting a stranger dead after a row in a queue at McDonald's.
Horace Campbell,28, and Liam Douglas-O'Callaghan, 18, were found guilty of murdering DevonScarlett, 32, in Brixton in April last year.
The Old Bailey heard Campbell and Mr Scarlett were involved in a row at the restaurant.
They were escorted outside by security guards, but the argument carried on and they agreed to meet in a nearby street for a shoot-out.
Campbell called Douglas-O'Callaghan to bring his gun.
He then followed Mr Scarlett down a street and fired three shots, two of them hitting the victim.
Mr Scarlett died a few hours later in hospital.
Campbell and O'Callaghan both denied murder.
– Bobbie Cheema, Prosecutor
"Horace Campbell was determined to avenge the perceived lack of respect that DevonScarlett showed him.
"Devon Scarlett acted with foolish bravado, behaving like a tough guy, but whatever he said and did, he was not armed."

A$AP Ferg - Work (Remix)
Artist: A$AP Ferg
Featuring: French Montana , A$AP Rocky , ScHoolboy Q , Trinidad James
Producer: Darold Brown & Steven Pugh
Album: Trap Lord
Avg Rating: 2.7 ( 19 total votes )
While there are situations in which too many cooks spoil the broth, Work is typically easier and more enjoyable when you have company. In accordance with that principle, A$AP Ferg has enlisted the help of a few talented homies for the official remix of his RCA Records debut single. After delivering a brand new verse on the front, the headliner steps aside to let Bad Boy signee French Montana, West Coast phenom SchoolBoy Q and Females Welcomed hitmaker Trinidad James to rock the mic over Darold Brown & Steven Pugh's stark, trunk-rattling beat. Rounding out the star-studded guest lineup, A$AP Mob ringleader Rocky delivers the coup de grâce. Does this version top the original? Debate away—and, of course, keep it locked for all the latest from A$AP Ferg.
