Sweet Sips at Serendipity 3
Frozen hot chocolate isn't the only beverage at this new ice cream shop.
February 17, 2012
Size 0 cocktail
Post-Valentine's Day chocolates and sweets sales are hard to resist. Equally irresistible is South Beach's new ice cream and dessert shop, New York's famed Serendipity 3. While the frozen hot chocolate has earned raves (and movie cameos), don't miss the shop's whimsical cocktails, which can be as indulgent as a dessert or virtually guilt-free. Calorie-counting diners might try the Size 0 cocktail made with vodka, muddled strawberry and cucumber, and light lemonade. And for something sweeter, there's the Caketini, which is topped with actual cake.
Theodora & Callum Play with Dayglow
Make your outfit pop with one of the brand's vibrant spring scarfs.
February 16, 2012
Scarfs by Theodora and Callum
Rather than hop a plane to faraway places like Bora Bora, Morocco, Turkey, and India, opt instead to channel the sultry locales through fashion with exotic scarfs, jewelry, shoes, and handbags by Theodora & Callum. Helmed by fashion trailblazer Stefani Greenfield, of Scoop NYC stores and Bravo's Launch My Linefame, and entertainment producer Desirée Gruber (wife of Sex and the City's Kyle MacLachlan), the bon vivant-inspired line is named after Greenfield's daughter and Gruber's son, Theodora and Callum. While whimsical printed scarves are at the heart of the collection, Stuart Weitzman manufactures the shoes and handbags. "We think of Theodora & Callum as a creative factory. It's not about chasing trends," says Greenfield. The dayglow designs in Theodora & Callum's spring collection are sure to be seen around South Beach.

Vicar 'shocked' at woman's death
Father Irwin Stewart, from the Parish Church of Saint Paul The Apostle in Hunwick, has spoken of his sadness at the death of Lesley Caile.
He said: "Very shocked and distressed by such an event.
"She was always smiling. Very personable. Often used to see her walking down the lane with her dogs. A good member of the community, and from a community family as well."

Marcus Coates is a shaman. He's also an artist. Shamanism occurs all over the world and over the past few years Coates has turned his search for anthropological nirvana to that most amorphous of lands: Elephant & Castle. Truly, here is a place on the fringes of the centre of arguably the most metropolitan of world cities; a place with balance in its settling and its transience. A place under the threat of the modernisation; a place defined by its blurred boundaries.
Two summers ago Coates and disco-thunder band Chrome Hoof performed A Ritual for Elephant & Castle at the Coronet Theatre. Now, playing from today, is Vision Quest - part documentary, part performance, this feature-length movie explores the redevelopment of Elephant & Castle with Coates' channelling animal spirit guides to undertake a vision quest on behalf of the area, its history and potential futures.
Screening, appropriately, in unit 237 of the Elephant & Castle Shopping Centre (everyone's known landmark) the film incorporates contributions from residents, the local authorities and property planners to evoke an alternative collective vision of what Elephant & Castle could be. It's a strange experience, but Coates is an able guide. Having completed a rich vein of work over the past couple of years, his is a strong artistic hand and the technique is assured. This is a unique film.
Vision Quest - A Ritual for Elephant & Castle is at Unit 237, Elephant & Castle Shopping Centre until 22 April.

If somebody comments on one of my pics I will go to their portfolio and look at their images and comment on any (even many) that I feel merit a comment.
If somebody leaves me a Tag it depends what they say. If it's an 'awesome port' Tag then I don't do anything. If it's a bit more thoughtful then I will do either the above, or Tag them back saying thank you.
Depends. Sometimes I'll leave a tag saying thanks for the comments, sometimes I'll look through their port and comment if I see something I like.
Comments like "cool, nice, HOT" rarely get something back...they're not really constructive.

Zionsville Times Sentinel
---- — Running events used to be simple. Sign up, train to your level, participate, and get a T-shirt you will probably donate to Goodwill. Not anymore. Your simple 5k has morphed into a mixture of natural and man-made obstacles, laid out through recreational parks, corn fields, and thick woodlands … through the muddiest path possible! Why? I only know what I saw and experienced, so read on and see what you think. Mud is fun! Uh, seriously, when was the last time you were muddy from the chin down? Really? Then it's been too long! I must admit I was tip-toeing through the first few puddles, avoiding the inevitable. But as soon as I was forced to crawl on my belly through the mud, it didn't matter anymore. The pressure was off and the fun was on. You should have seen the folks at the finish line slapping muddy high-fives, chest bumps and hugs. Everyone had worked hard and had a great time doing it. The great equalizer Adding mud and rugged terrain to a "competition" can level the playing field, turning good runners into wallowing novices, which can really take the pressure off the other participants. In fact, the mud allows you to modify your expectations since you really don't know how you are going to perform regardless of how well you have trained. This gives these events a very fun, low-key, social feel, which is very appealing to all fitness levels. See Wednesday's Times Sentinel for the full story.

The first play I saw in the programming change was a 3rd and short which we stuffed and forced 4th down. This was after I was receiving texts about the pick-6 and missed FG and how we weren't looking too good to start out.
Mr. Manning: Your passes got considerably better throughout the game. At first you were sailing the ball, but I hope that was just the jitters that come with a rivalry game. You progressed throughout the game which has been what you have done all year.
McGahee/RBs: I hate seeing you fumble but I also hate seeing you hurt on the sidelines. Hillman and Ball are not ready to be #1 backs. I was contemplating who would be a better backup: Hillman, Ball, Moreno, JJohnson?
WRs: Well the big 3, DT, Deck, Stokley all had a TD. DT is not just an athlete now, he is starting to be groomed into a great WR... Decker dropped a pass that was a little off when he was diving that could have been a first down but his TD showed his vision to turn up field and get into the endzone. Stokley isn't just a possession receiver like I thought at the beginning of the year. He is so good at creating a defensive mismatch right now.
O-Line: We won, so there is no reason to get too picky, but it seemed like once McGahee came out that the holes left with him. Other than a couple big runs, the holes for the other backs were minimal. Remember guys that Hillman is a rookie... open a door for him and don't make him look for the window!
Pressure: Von Miller, I love seeing the sack dance, mainly because it means there was a sack! Keep it up man. You have been disruptive all year and I have noticed you have tackled better too. Now the running backs have to account for you because you are negating their gains. I noticed that every time Miller was close to the QB that at least one more guy was within an arm of a sack as well. Von may have the 13 sacks so far this season, but the pressure if coming from everywhere.
LBs: I loved having to wait and see DJ to enter the field because we are so deep at LB. I remember last year, and into summer ball that I was worried about quality depth at the LB. Trev, Woody, Irving, Brooking, DJ, Miller all make plays. I feel so comfortable with this group seeing them drop in coverage, stack the box, or rush the QB.
DBs: Animals I tell ya. So many of the mistakes, sacks that happened this weekend was because this squad was blanketing the WRs. Carter and Harris (like I felt with the LBs) have proved that they aren't gonna be the weak link this year. Bailey is getting tested more now that these guys are getting a name for themselves and even if he gives up a catch, he never gives up big YAC. The safety play has been solid the last few weeks and I don't recall hearing Gates' name said to frequently so Cheers guys.
A blocked punt instead of a return for TD this week? Come on guys we have to step up! Just joking! I will take a blocked punt/kick any day!! That was a great play and Scifres ankle must hurt because he went to kick the football and hit all Irving.
On to KC this week. I hate to say its a trap game, but its a rivalry game. Charles and Hillis both have their own reasons for wanting to beat us. Lets play solid and get out to the lead. I don't want to give their defense any reason to be thankful!
Happy Thanksgiving Everyone!!

Backpacker Magazine – November/December 2005
Get ready to feel puny--and profoundly grateful--on three hikes through ancient forests.
Redwood Canyon, CA
Hike among Millennia-old sequoias
The Hike
Sure, Kings Canyon's well-known Giant Forest has the Sherman Tree--a 102-foot-around sequoia with bark 3 feet thick. But nearby Redwood Canyon (also in the national park) attracts far fewer people and has California's largest concentration of mature sequoias in more than 4,000 acres of forest. A 10-mile loop on the Sugar Bowl and Hart Tree Trails traces the Redwood Mountain ridgeline to the Sugar Bowl, a 3-acre cluster of cinnamon-colored giants, then visits the Fallen Goliath, a fire-hollowed redwood tunnel. Next stop is the Hart Tree, a 3,000-year-old behemoth that requires 15 people to hug its 75-foot girth. The final spectacle is Redwood Log Cabin, a hollow sequoia dwelling modified with a chimney at one end. www.nps.gov/seki
Branch off
Nab a permit for the park's only backcountry big-tree camping, beneath Redwood Creek's sequoias. (559) 565-3766
The Way
Use the Big Stump Entrance. Turn right on Generals Highway; after 3 miles, turn right on a dirt road that leads to the Redwood Saddle trailhead.

- people in the U.S. have this name View Kyle Anderson on WhitePages
Meaning & Origins
Of Scottish origin but now widely used in the English-speaking world. It is derived from a topographic term denoting a narrow strait or channel and in part is a transferred use of the surname, a local name from the region in Ayrshire so called. As a girl's name it appears to have been largely superseded by Kyla.
|196th in the U.S.
Scottish and northern English: very common patronymic from the personal name Ander(s), a northern Middle English form of Andrew. See also Andreas. The frequency of the surname in Scotland is attributable, at least in part, to the fact that St. Andrew is the patron saint of Scotland, so the personal name has long enjoyed great popularity there. Legend has it that the saint's relics were taken to Scotland in the 4th century by a certain St. Regulus. The surname was brought independently to North America by many different bearers and was particularly common among 18th-century Scotch-Irish settlers in PA and VA. In the United States, it has absorbed many cognate or likesounding names in other European languages, notably Swedish Andersson, Norwegian and Danish Andersen, but also Ukrainian Andreychyn, Hungarian Andrásfi, etc.
|9th in the U.S.

Article By: Fred Bouchard
SEANA KELLEY • 49 • General Manager • Durgin-Park Restaurant • Faneuil Hall Market • Boston
Lunch at Durgin-Park, that rough-n'-tumble icon of Boston dining culture, has been a 5O-year tradition for your reporter. As undergraduates at Boston College, fellow choristers, marching band tootlers, miscellaneous music mavens and I observed a fairly faithful Friday ritual: we'd cut afternoon classes, Green Line it to Symphony Hall, grab a 6O¢ BSO 'rush seat' ticket, zip to Scollay Square to the North Building of Quincy Market where Durgin-Park was a Mecca among workers, tourists, and bargain-hunters for its 99¢ three-course lunch. We'd down heaping portions of Poor Man's Roast Beef, braised short ribs, or – my favorite – chicken livers sautéed with wine and bacon. Daunting entrees were preceded by golden hunks of cornbread and chunky clam chowder, served with hefty sides of buttered turnips, boiled cabbage, whipped mash, and oven-baked Beanpot beans, followed by classic Indian Pudding or potent Coffee Jell-O with a choice of whipped cream or vanilla ice cream. Whew! That same lunch is still a good deal today, adjusted for inflation and belt notches. Among Boston's handful of venerable restaurants (like Jacob Wirth, Marliave, Union Oyster House, Locke-Ober), Durgin-Park is arguably the oldest and least changed of the lot. Founded in 1827 by John Durgin and Eldridge Park . . . but let cheerful multi-tasker Seana Kelley tell the tale!
A BIT 'O HIST'RY John Durgin and Eldridge Park were butchers, purveyors-turned-restaurateurs. It was one of the only shows until 1926 in Faneuil Hall Market Place, Boston's hub for all purveyors and pushcarts, fish to flowers. Depression years saw the market shuttered, a skid row. Durgin-Park was the only place that never shut down, serving food continuously at this location since 1827. Don't forget – this was when Boston Harbor came right up to our door, boat traffic and all, and the Market buildings were on pilings! [See the menu's antique woodcut.] I recently loved re-reading John Quincy's 2OO3 book Quincy's Market: A Boston Landmark. It's true that Mayor Kevin White brought the Market back to prominence in the '7Os. It's changed over time, and now he's memorialized with his larger than life statue by Faneuil Hall. My dad Gene has great memories of him as Kevin The Boss, loved by nearly all.
LOVING DETAILS Customers don't like to see the restaurant change. The building, inside and out, has been pretty much the same for about 185 years, though some foundations suggest a little later. We've kept our upstairs dining rooms in their traditional look: the White Room has white table-cloths, Red Room has checkered tablecloths, the Mid-Hall draws singles and couples in communal seating, with the steel service kitchen bustling right in the middle of it all. Exposed pipe, beige walls, brass coat-hooks, hanging lamps, rough oak flooring – but no more sawdust! It's still a Boston family tradition, a bridge to the future: old folks bring in the kids and grandkids, like they do to Fenway Park or The Common. The Gaslight Pub is still downstairs; The Hideout in the basement, originally an oyster bar, now features craft beer and entertainment (Wednesday improv comedy, Thursday trivia, weekends live bands).
FRIENDLY SALE Business bounced back after World War II; I have scrapbook photos of the previous owners, the Chandler and Hallett families, and memorabilia on the walls. They'd hold turkey raffles for staff and customers. Legend had it that Jim Hallett would only sell Durgin-Park to a friend, so he sold it to my grandfather Martin, who owned several bars and restaurants, like Big M on Mass Ave, Midnight Court, and South Boston's Cork & Bull. Durgin-Park's three buildings in the Market each had five stories with four half-moon windows and a basement. We Kelleys owned two and leased the third from the Donovans. Ma Donovan used to have card games going in her bar next door. In all Faneuil Hall, we were the only two working families that owned their properties. Martin's three sons, with my mother and her brother of the Solimondo family, ran the show. It was very busy when we took over; all the mothers and cousins worked here. My mother counted the money and made bank deposits. My cousin Suzanne was first a manager and is now our accountant.
MANY HATS I graduated from Elmira College in upstate New York in 1984. My folks loved to eat at Pearce's. [That other famed family restaurant closed in 2OO9]. I've worked at Durgin-Park since 1976 as a busgirl, then since 1984 in various positions: bargirl, cashier, hostess. Once when I was a waitress, Mr. Hallett spied me leave the kitchen with a Poor Man's Roast Beef cut way too thick – a $1.99 lunch special on a $9.99 full-priced dinner entrée – and called me back! I also worked as a kitchen receiver, because we thought some vendors were cheating us. My job was to weigh all incoming products and store them. Let me just put it that we found, ah, room for error. Somebody has to be on the floor at all times who's a stakeholder. I'd go with the chefs to meet the vendors in Roxbury, but I didn't buy. We got most meat then from Bertolino and today from Kenneally.
CHANGE, NO CHANGE Our service is still Buffalo China, a 19O1 design. The recipes are even older: broiled schrod, oyster stew. My hardest changes, honestly, are on the menu. I hated to take Fried Smelts off because they're so local and unique, but people don't eat like that now. And Alaskan King Crab legs today are price prohibitive! The best change is that people today are truly interested in fresh local food, which speaks to what we've been doing long before it was trendy. Cod caught off-shore, New England molasses, Bolton apples for Apple Pan Dowdy. We've always used indigenous ingredients.
GOOD GROUP The Ark Restaurant Group features over thirty restaurants, mainly East Coast, from Florida to Boston, and some in Las Vegas. I love these guys to death, I'm so happy they bought the place in 2OO7. They don't want to change anything; they know why we're here. I'm invested because Durgin-Park offer a unique product, and with Ark we're not just a small piece of a big company that doesn't 'get' our amazing history.
They're not micro-managing us. They call me up and invite me for dinner to NYC; they have us visit their restaurants to check out other concepts, and meet the other managers. We chat and have an ongoing exchange of ideas. They're big on talking with management and maintaining good rapport. We ask each other practical questions: 'How do you handle . . . ?' 'What's a good dish with . . . ?' We discuss labor laws, legal issues.
TIMELESS RECIPE BOOK Our new head chef Melicia Phillips has organized the recipes for all our traditional dishes – finally! Over the past 4O years, Chef Tom Ryan did it old-school, a little of this and that . . . Now it's all fairly well sorted out, hallelujah! The recipe book will be available soon – Melicia's thorough update of the book that Jane and Michael Stern edited for us years back. For years we've handed out a little white mailer that reprints recipes and a feature in Collier's Magazine from the 195Os. People still scribble notes on it and mail it back home.
MARKET SCENE A late-night scene has been emerging around Faneuil Hall, with youngsters making the rounds, pub-crawling between Mija (upscale Mexican), Zuma (midrange Tex-Mex) Owen O'Leary's, Black Rose (Irish music pub), Anthem, Hard Rock Café, Sky. Faneuil Hall is surely coming back as a destination for young people, and we're competing well with the nearby Union Street scene.
BOSS-TOWN 'TINIS We're creating new martinis demanded by the Boston crowd with cute names and popular flavors. We serve them in those big 1O-ounce martini glasses; and make them in well, call, and premium to cover all price points ($9 to $12). One of our smart waitresses came up with the names. Here are a few: Weekend Down the Cape (Stoli Vanil, Malibu, pineapple juice), Weekend in the Berkshires (Berkshire Mountain Rum, Triple Sec, sour mix, fresh lemon), The Flirty Bostonian (Smirnoff Vodka, Chambord, pineapple juice), Love That Dirty Water (Kahlua, Bailey's, chocolate) and Wick'd Good Martini (Malibu Rum, Hypnotiq, pineapple juice)
POURS AND TOURS We're using the Long Island Vodka (LĪV) made from potatoes and sanctioned by Ark. They know the guys at the distillery on Long Island and they're really evidently characters. We're going with Gosling's Black Seal Bermuda Rum and their ginger beer for the Dark & Stormy. That's always been popular as a historical New England drink, but now more than ever. When the Tall Ships come in, two guys dressed in colonial costumes and playing guitar and fiddle come by with an historical tour and everyone orders a Dark & Stormy. Another thing is the tasting tours, where a dozen people come in and you give them little tastings of house specialties – Boston Baked Beans, cornbread, Indian Pudding. It's like a pub-crawl for foodies.
DRINK SHIFT We've started to go for cool combinations like Prosecco with Saint Germain, and to revive old favorites, like the Sidecar, rechristened Streetcar! We create new drinks with LĪV and their fruit Sorbettas. Two examples are a Strawberry Lemonade Martini and Bossa Nova, LĪV with Saint Germain, grapefruit, and lemon juice. We also shortened the wine list for compactness and utility; once I had it as all American, because we're an all-American restaurant, right? But now it's diversified mainly for value.
COOL BREWS Our [Chimay-sponsored red-bound] beer list we amended for practicality and freshness from 75 bottles and 1O drafts, to 3O bottles and 15 drafts. John Durgin Ale is by far our best seller, and people love the story. Harpoon has made it for us for years, an unfiltered British Pale Ale, a little hoppier than most. Big sellers are: Chimay Red, Allagash White, Wachusett Blueberry, Smuttynose, Geary's, Nantucket Whale Ale, Wells Banana Bread (dessert beer from England), Frulli, Lambic, Left-handed Milk Stout. Woodstock (NH) Brewery hosts improv night; their Raspberry Wheat is really big. We love showcasing in-state microbrews, like BBC Coffeehouse Porter (Deerfield), Offshore Amber (Oak Bluffs), Cisco Grey Lady Ale (Nantucket), Fisherman's Brew (Gloucester).
KEEP IT FRESH The drinks list is another way we're trying to stay fresh, if not exactly trendy. We're not changing our concept, but we're not asleep at the wheel either, you know? Durgin-Park has its history behind it, that other places may not have going for them. We're standing up for that tradition.

WARREN - The Warren-Trumbull County Public Library will not be getting the cut of the $6.4 million in state library funding it wants for 2014, lining up another plea to Ohio's tax appeals board.
Trumbull County's Budget Commission's decision Monday to keep next year's division of the Public Library Fund the same as 2013 leaves the county's largest library system ''where we were last year,'' said its director, Jim Wilkins.
Although the WTCPL board hasn't seen the budget commission's decision and will not meet until next month, ''I'm assuming they are going to want to appeal this one also'' to the Board of Tax Appeals, said Wilkins.
The appeal from the budget commission's decision on 2013 funding division is pending. In the meantime, the sides - WTCPL and the two smallest library systems, the Bristol Public Library and Kinsman Free Public Library - are intending to meet with a mediator to end the dispute.
The budget commission awarded WTCPL 50 percent of the funding, and the other half is divided among the remaining library systems: McKinley Memorial Library, 12.5 percent; Girard Free Library and Hubbard Public Library, 9.6 percent; Newton Falls Public Library, 7.4 percent; Kinsman, 6.1 percent; and Bristol, 4.7 percent.
Warren sought 59.4 percent of the library funding, an amount it determined by plugging into a formula service population, facility square footage and hours of operation. But its request was dismissed by the budget commission, which determined the library did not show an actual need for the increase, according to its decision.
Fact Box
Library funds
The Trumbull County Budget Commission Monday determined how the seven library systems in Trumbull County will divide $6.4 million from Ohio's Public Library Fund.
Warren-Trumbull County, 50 percent - $3.3 million
McKinley Memorial, Niles, 12.5 percent - $805,651
Girard Free and Hubbard, 9.6 percent - $619,113
Newton Falls, 7.4 percent - $477,601
Kinsman Free, 6.1 percent - $392,373
Bristol, 4.7 percent - $302,320
''It is axiomatic that an award of this request increase would necessarily be a financial detriment to other interested libraries,'' the decision states.
The additional money, Wilkins said, would be used to expand services, however, the loss of any money threatens the survival of the libraries in Bristol and Kinsman, say their directors, Cheryl French and Darla Bates.
In real dollars, WTCPL will receive $3.3 million; McKinley, $805,651; Girard and Hubbard, $619,113 a piece; Newton Falls, $477,601; Kinsman, $392,373; and Bristol, $302,320. The amounts are down from July's estimated library fund amount from the state, which was about $6.7 million.

4.33/5 rDev +14.6%
Aroma: Strong sour like smell with background of lemon pepper.
Appearance: Very light yellow, clear with a modest head that thins, but hangs.
Flavor: A classic wit taste. The sour in the aroma isn't overpowering, but it's there. I get a lot of citric acid, lemon notes again. This is strong enough to trigger a bit of the saliva glands in my jaw, but I could take stronger.
Mouthfeel: Light, bubbly, refreshing.
Overall Impression: I too knew and respected the Austin Celis White (Damn you Miller, Damn YOU!!) and this is a close approximation. Up the coriander a bit more (this is a bottle I've been saving for a bit, so it may have faded) and beef the body up a touch, especially the protein for better head retention. Kudos to Michigan Brewing for saving this one from the abyss of beers gone by.

A: Cloudy with a nice head that dissipates fast.
S: Mmmm...all kinds of herbal and citrus scents abound from the glass.
T: Delicious. Slightly tart, somewhat sweet, this is a great White Ale, one of the very best on the market.
M: Very easy on the palate - like a crisp lemonade, with a hint of chamomile.
D: This is definitely a session beer (at under 5%). On a hot summer day, I could gulp down several of these.
I used to have friends bring back Celis White and Grand Cru from Texas back in the late 90's, and I firmly believe that the MBC version is just as good as the Austin version.

Pours very pale and almost clear, would like to see a more orange, cloudy brew for this style.
Very complex spicy smell. Honey, coriander, clove. Very nice.
Slightly sweet and spicy in much the same way as the smell. Intense banana esters. Ends slightly bitter with a very light, refreshing sourness.
Huge wheat body, nice refreshing carbonation.
Very drinkable. For $7.50/ sixer, this beer is great to have around. Full of flavor, incredibly drinkable and cheap.

Pours cloudy yellow with one finger white head. Deep wheat smell, some citrusy notes are there as well. Taste - Very rich creamy wheaty goodness with some lemony notes. Great stuff! Light, very flavorful, excellent brew! It's extremely drinkable, too bad it's only 250 ml bottle.

4.3/5 rDev +13.8%
Pours a properly cloudy straw hue, with a weak soap-bubble one-finger head. Lacking retention and minimal lacing. Coriander and sweet orange peel nose, with a nice funky Belgian yeast aroma, and some wheat in the background. Sweet pale base malt and soft wheat flavors upfront, followed by a tart and fruity witbier yeast profile. Semi-dry afteraste; faint spicy german hops meld with citrus rind and coriander spice for a well-balanced and charismatic flavor. A light body and high carbonation give it a effervescent and lively mouthfeel. Finishes crisp with mellow belgian phenols and spices; slight pale malt is distant and subdued. A terrific drinkability and great example of the style. Recommend this to your friends that like Blue moon.

4.3/5 rDev +13.8%
Quite pale yellow, hazy, with a moderate initial head that fades all too quickly. Vanilla fruitiness and a light coriander define the nose. The flavor, too, has a lot of coriander, strong even for the style. Apple, or maybe banana, fruitiness abounds, with a touch of honey or bubblegum. The finish is tart, lightly citric. Mouthfeel is moderately full, creamy and well-carbonated.
Celis White has been one of my favorite beers for more than a decade. The Michigan Brewing example tastes just like I remember the original, when it was made down in Austin. I hope they'll bring back the Grand Cru to Texas someday. It's basically a very strong, extremely tasty version of the white, with more coriander than I've ever found in another beer.

Cloudy yellow color with decent amount of head. Smell is citrus.. a lot of lemon.
Taste is almost pure citrus. Loads of fresh lemon and slight orange. Cloves, cinnamon, and coriander. Tastes very fresh with lots of flavor.. very refreshing and probably the best I have had in this style.
This turned out to be a pleasant surprise. A great summer beer.

Appearance: cloudy, decent head about half an inch thing. Sub par retention
Smell: Spices come out on the nose.
Taste: Nice, spices come through. A lot of whites are too watered down and flavorless. This is a nice easy going taste, but not too watered down.

Poured from bottle into pint glass.
A: Not as cloudy as some other witbiers that I've. Nice lacing, extremely high carbonation. Nice looking brew.
S: Standard coriander and spiciness but not overwhelmingly so. Very nice nose, whetted the appetite for what is to come with the taste.
T & M: Very nice, I had high expectations for this beer and it definitely met them. Not thin at all, mouthfeel solid. Taste had everything that I would expect, nice spiciness in the brew with some sweetness but not cloying at all.
D: Incredibly drinkable, this is one I that I could drink any time of the year in a large quantity. This is the best witbier that I have had in my tastings.

Bought locally (Grapevine refrigerated shelves), a couple of days in my fridge, reviewed 45F-55F. I was so happy to see this back in bottles in Austin, and was very curious to see how the recipe survived the trip to Michigan. I heap mondo negative karma on Miller for killing Celis in Austin.
The snow white head is medium-sized and settles to a thin film quickly. The beer itself is a very pale, cloudy whitish-yellow. It's more amber/yellow in the middle, more white around the edges. I can't think of anything to compare the color to, but it's absolutely gorgeous.
Belgian yeast spiciness/fruitiness dominate the nose, but there's some nuttiness in there too. The front is citrus and spice, souring nicely in the middle. A light, tingly feel. The finish is dry with some nice sweet/sour citrus. The aftertaste is nutty and a little soapy. Fantastic! The citrus flavors are quite strong, but the unusual nuttiness really complements nicely. Original.

Appearance: Hazed lemon yellow sun. Medium sized dirty white head. The stick is pretty good. Retention nice as well.
Aroma: Wheat tanginess, a little tart character and some subtle, yet evident, spicing. Some nice fresh yeastiness here too. Quite the nice nose.
Taste: Tart, spicy, refreshing. Nice doughy yeastiness here on the palate as well.
MF/DK: The carbonation gives a spritzy feel to the beer. Light-medium body. Flavorful and quite drinkable. Good Lawnmower Beer.

A - Slightly cloudy and golden color. The head froths up a little and fizzes out quickly, no lace.
S - A good mix of coriander and orange peel. Not overpowering, but pleasant and soft.
T - The difference between this and some other whites I've had is the prominence of the orange peel. It's got a bitterness to it that I attributed to bitter orange peel, but it could be hops - I don't know. It played down the sweet and sour, and stepped up the bitter to make it very refreshing and unique.
M - A medium-light body - middle o' the road.
D - Very nice. The balance and flavors were all there. I would be happy with a case of these.

12 oz. bottle. Pours a hazy golden color, with a nice white fluffy head. Very good head retention. Floral and spicy aroma. Slightly tart and sweet, some floral flavors and some spice, like corriander. Light to medium body, with a refreshing amount of carbonation. I enjoyed this because it is not overdone with the spices, there is just enough there for flavor. Pretty thirst quenching and refreshing served cold. Pretty well done, considering this is not typically one of my favorite styles.

Grabbed a 6 pack of this at One for the Road in Wexford, PA, a few weeks back...
This didn't last long, but I managed to save the final bottle for review. This 12 ounce bottle has no freshness date, alas. Nevertheless, into my lovely Tripel Karmeliet glass it goes!
A. Purty! Huge, 3 inch white head is quite foamy and dies quick, leaving tons of succulent looking white lace... could hardly ask for better. The beer itself is a mildly unfiltered dull, bubbly yellow.
S. Bold. Really reminds me of La Fin Du Monde, minus that Unibroue yeast... loads of wheat, lemon, coriander, crisp honey-apple sweetness and just a hint of pepper. Classic and tight, nothing wrong here at all. Maybe a touch too sharp? But that's quibbling.
F. Classic Witbier here - honestly one of the best I've had from any country. Starts off thin (refreshing) and crisp, but not too sharp - the wheat softens it I think. Then a rush of gentle, yet insistent sweetness, tempered by a good dose of lemon-orange spritz. It is important to note that this is not really sour per se, nor acidic, but it does have that citrus and lingering sour finish. Otherwise, a good amount of coriander is present here, and a green apple ester (no apple sweetness) along with just a smudge of sulfur. The whole experience is drastically refreshing.
M / O. The finish on Celis White is soft, with an extremely long, lingering lemon-esque note and some white bread dough. The carbonation is equally soft / light, I personally would prefer a bit more... but that said, one could hardly ask for a better Belgian-style summer beer. This is both to style and excellent, and right up there with Allagash White for contention as the best Belgian Wit I've had out of my home country. In fact I feel like I prefer this to Allagash... guess I'd better acquire some more and find out, huh?

Ah, Celis White. The beer with the mythical Belgian and Texan lineage...
Pours out to a muddied yellow in the glass with a slight head. Smell is that of light yeast, wheat, lemon and some spice I couldn't put my finger on. Taste is wonderful. Clove, coriander and lemon are all present with a finish so smooth, it begs for another sip. I don't know how this version from Michigan Brewing compares to Pierre's former Texas variety, but it has to be very close. A fine beer.
Thanks to trbeer for hooking me up with this one.

Pours a slightly hazy yellow with a modest white head. Little lacing or retention.
Smells like a close sousin to the boys down the street at Allagash. Orange, lemon, coriander, and grass. Deelish.
Tastes like it was born for massive summer consumption. Big gobs of sweet/tart citrus with an underlying grainy feel. Spicy, again wth an undercurrent of sweetness. Finishes lemony dry with the pause that refreshes.
Mouthfeel is nice and light. Built to be drank as a monster session brew. We still have a few weeks of summer here in Maine and I am on this one. I feel like I stumbled on to one here completely by accident. Glad I snagged a six of this.

Had this at home after a long day at work....
Pours a hazy straw-color with minimal head, what little there was appeared cream in color. Tiny yeast particles float happily in the bubbly concoction.
Smells of coriander, ORANGES, lemons to a lesser extent.... a yeasty breadiness asserts itself throughout.
More of the same in the taste, although more tart than I expected. Only a minute flash of hops shows itself in the finish. Very effervescent, almost too bubbly. Overall, very good, tasty authentic Belgian witbier.
Very refreshing, an excellent session beer. Can't wait to try it on tap very soon.

Pours very cloudy, but with some transparency around the edges. Deep gold color with bone white head that fades to a collar. Quite aromatic, with plenty of malts amidst the spices -- orange peel, coriander, white pepper -- that lend a hugely refreshing feel to the nose. On the palate, excellently balanced between sweetness and acidity, with each one seesawing for influence in turn. Mouthfeel takes over at first -- it's thick for a witbier, and quite carbonated. At the finish and in the aftertaste the real flavors of this beer come out: sharp spices, a citrusy tang, and clingy wheat malts. Overall, this is a very good witbier. It's got some spice and some maltiness, refreshing acidity and drinkability. At low alcohol, it's also great for summer consumption. I'm impressed.

Pours a very bright yellow but light in color almost clear. The white head on this one makes it look like a lemon merigune pie. Smell is lemony and sweet. Also an aroma of corriander. First sip revelas a grassy and lemony taste. Very refreshing and crisp an easily drinkable beer. I know it comes with a high expectation due to the previous history of Celis. However, I like this beer. It is good with food like cheese and bread. I can easily drink this. The corriander might be a bit cloying after a few however. Corriander taste is coming through deeper into the glass. Still I paired this with a combination goats, sheep, and cow cheese with a rustic Italian bread and it held up well with the grassy taste. I really wanted a Hennepin and this filled the gap when I couldn't quite get what I wanted.

Appears a cloudy yellow with a fizzy white head and hardly any lacing.
Smell is of heavy, pleasant whiffs of orange peel and clove.
Taste is of the same pleasant aromas that grace this glass, along with a slight taste of white pepper along with the clove.
Mouthfeel is medium bodied and flavorful with a spice and orange taste coming through the body.
Drinkability is excellent. This is a nice treat on draft.
Finger licking good.

Oh, Celis, how I've missed you these past few years. Other reviewers have already chronicled the past for this storied brand. I've lived in Texas all my life, and in the Austin metro area since '96. I remember many a summer afternoon spent nursing a cool mug of Celis beer. Until Miller bought them and shut the doors. NOT a good day.
But let me tell you, Celis brewed some monster beers, and the witbier was one of their finest. And now it's back, sort of. Michigan Brewing Company is one of the licensees of the original recipe, and they don't do a bad job with it at all. I drank gallons of the original Austin version, so I feel qualified to say that while it doesn't quite live up to it's predecessor, it'll do in a pinch.
I picked up a six-pack in San Marcos and took it home with some trepidation. Celis has been back on the shelves here for a while, but I've avoided them out of respect for the memories of the original brews. But I was pleasantly surprised. It poured cloudy and with a fragrant aroma of spices and citrus. Not much head, though. I remember the original having more head. Tasted a lot like I remember, but the wheat really displays on this version. Cloudy appearance gave way after a while as the beer settled. Not an overpowering mouthfeel. Finished dry without wasting away...aftertaste was bittersweet and spicy.
It's a good beer and I can recommend it, but it's not the same as it was. The Austin version was truly a world-class witbier, this is just a really good witbier. Still lots of fun, though, and I'd hoist a few of these with some nice seafood or chicken/pasta dishes.

I am a Dallas Cowboy junkie and I am so thankful for BTB news on my beloved Cowboys in quantity and quality that is unmatched by any other source.
As my first post or rather inquiry (perhaps a question for O.C.C.), I have been wondering about the frequency that opposing offenses use 3-step drops vs 3+step drops against our defense the last several years. I would think that if offenses are afraid of the Cowboys pass rush, there would be a lot more 3-step drops and it would be evident more against the feared defenses rather than the not-so-feared. The next part I am curious is about is based on timing, what route combinations wide receivers often use, and then lastly what the defensive backs (Claiborne and Carr) can do.
I am extremely excited for this upcoming year because the last 15+ years have been heartbreaking but I as many have expressed see very positive things from this team and this organization.

The holidays are just around the corner and this pumpkin spice cake is delicious served as an evening dessert, mid-morning snack, or as a breakfast coffee cake. This cake would be great brought to fall pot-lucks or church suppers.
1 cup dark raisins
½ cup bourbon, whiskey or water
3 eggs, room temperature
1 ½ cups sugar
½ cup vegetable oil
½ cup buttermilk
2 cups flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 teaspoon each cinnamon, nutmeg, ground cloves and allspice
½ teaspoon salt
1 cup pumpkin puree
1 cup toasted pecans or walnuts
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Spray a bundt pan with cooking spray with flour. In a small bowl pour bourbon or water and add raisins. Set aside for a few minutes. In a large mixing bowl mix the eggs, sugar, oil, buttermilk. Add flour, baking powder, baking soda, spices, salt and vanilla. Mix well again.
Add the pumpkin and mix well one more time. Fold in nuts and soaked raisins, including any leftover bourbon or water. Pour into prepared bundt pan and bake in preheated 350 degree F. oven for 45 – 50 minutes. Let cake cool 20 to 25 minutes before removing from pan. This cake is wonderful without frosting. However, if you want to frost this cake, use the recipe below.
Pumpkin Cream Cheese Frosting
½ stick or 4 tablespoons butter or margarine, softened
4 ounces cream cheese, softened
1 ½ cups powdered sugar
½ teaspoon cinnamon
1/8 teaspoon ginger
1/8 teaspoon nutmeg
¼ cup pumpkin puree
1 teaspoon bourbon, whiskey or vanilla extract
2 Tablespoons milk
1 cup toasted pecans or walnuts, divided, optional
In a large bowl, mix all ingredients reserving ½ cup toasted pecans or walnuts, if using, together with mixer. Pour over cake so that it drips down the sides. You don't have to ice the entire cake unless you want to; I usually don't. Note: If you want a thinner frosting, add more milk. For a thicker frosting, add more powdered sugar until you reach the desired consistency.

If Luis Cane manages to beat Jason Lambert at UFC 85, the fans will have a new villain to boo and hiss at. Here's Cane talking to Sherdog about his DQ loss to James Irvin:
Sherdog.com: Your first performance was at UFC 79 and you had a controversial outcome. You were disqualified against James Irvin for striking his face with your knees when he was on the ground. You've got angry with him, saying he was pretending to be injured to stop the fight. Tell us a little about this whole situation.
Cane: The result of this fight was a little disappointing because I was hired by the UFC thinking I would face a real athlete. But in the end, I fought against a coward in a no-heart fight. If that kneeing really knocked him out, any child could do the same. But this fight is already part of the past. My new fight against Lambert will be my true first combat at the event and this time against a real fighter.
Wow, I wonder how Cane will react if Lambert objects to Cane cheating like Irvin did.
Cane also tips his hand on his gameplan to beat Lambert:
Sherdog.com: Jason Lambert is a tough and very experienced guy. What did you see about his game?
Cane: Lambert is an experienced guy. He had already fought against athletes like Marcos Ruas, Tim Sylvia, and he has proved how he can be dangerous when he knocked out Renato Sobral. He is a very strong guy on top, but let's see how he behaves playing underneath.
I threw in a Cane fight from Art of War so you can see why the UFC signed the jerk, he is good.

Fight Fat Over 40
Learn to Love Muscle
A major reason for having trouble losing weight after 40 is that we begin to lose muscle tissue. "By age 50, people have lost an average 10 percent of muscle mass," says Chhanda Dutta, PhD, chief of the clinical gerontology branch at the National Institute on Aging. "By age 70 they've lost 40 percent." At the same time, "the cells that were once destined to become muscle and bone, for some reason that researchers have yet to determine, become fat cells," she says. Worse yet, the size of those fat cells increases -- a double whammy. Muscle burns more calories than fat does -- so having less muscle means your metabolism slows down and then your body needs fewer calories to sustain itself.
Weight training can preserve the lean tissue you have and build more: three to five pounds in about three months from thrice-weekly strength-training workouts. Plus, "after a weight workout, your metabolism is revved for 12 to 24 hours," says Hugo Rivera, a certified fitness trainer in Brandon, Florida, and coauthor of The Body Sculpting Bible for Women. That's because taxed muscles use calories to recover and carbohydrates to replenish their sugar stores, which forces your body to burn fat. Since muscle tissue weighs more than fat tissue, strength training may not drop pounds as effectively as diet or other types of exercise. But you'll look sleeker and your clothes will fit better. Don't worry about looking like Arnold Schwarzenegger. Women produce much less testosterone than men, so it's hard to build really large muscles. You'll get a lean, defined body instead.
The best way to increase your metabolism may be by combining strength training (to increase your basal metabolic rate) with aerobic exercise, which burns more calories through activity.

Is HEVC ready for prime time?September 17, 2013 8:03 pm | by Sophie Percheron, Product marketing manager for live distribution, Ateme | Articles | Comments
Ten years after the transition from MPEG-2 to H.264/MPEG-4 AVC, history is about to repeat itself with the arrival of HEVC, also known as H.265, the successor of H.264/MPEG AVC. The standard was approved in January, and just a few months later a live end-toend HEVC content delivery chain was demonstrated for the French Tennis Open event in early June 2013, providing tangible proof that HEVC is on a path toward commercial deployment.
RDK is moving at lightning speedSeptember 17, 2013 7:53 pm | by Mike Robuck | Articles | Comments
One year after the Comcast Reference Design Kit (RDK) made its public debut at The Cable Show, the platform has more than lived up to its "service velocity" goal. In short, the RDK went from being a PowerPoint presentation at last year's Cable Show, to a viable platform that is cutting down on development cycle for not only set-top boxes and gateways, but also applications.

For service providers, the challenges of multi-screen are no less daunting for being well known. It is a marvelously complex process to deliver video to an ever-expanding universe of devices running multiple major operating systems all with different screen sizes and supporting unique combinations of streaming formats and digital rights management (DRM) schemes.

Memory Lane: Power playSeptember 16, 2013 8:29 pm | by Stewart Schley, Media & technology writer | Articles | Comments
In Chicago, the great fire of 1871 wiped out much of the business district, and the capitalists came running. The fire's fury had produced an attractive, greenfield opportunity for building infrastructure in what was the world's fastest growing city. Nearly two dozen electricity entrepreneurs competed to carve out operations in small delivery sectors.
Upfront: OTT takes a nip out of video subscriber numbersSeptember 16, 2013 8:26 pm | by Brian Santo | Articles | Comments
Over the top services (OTT) are affecting the pay TV business. Maybe only a little, but measurably. In the second quarter AT&T and Verizon added video customers (233,000 and 140,000 respectively), but their gains do not even come close to offsetting the subscriber losses experienced by most of the top cable operators and both satellite providers.
Capital Currents: The Dish "Hopper" CaseSeptember 16, 2013 3:30 pm | by Jeffrey Krauss, President of Telecommunications and Technology Policy | Articles | Comments
To create the AutoHop functionality, Dish technicians in Cheyenne, Wyoming manually view Fox's primetime programming each night and technologically mark the beginning and end of each commercial. The program content is not altered in any way. The electronically marked files are then uplinked in Wyo., and eventually transmitted to subscribers.
In Perspective: SnarterSeptember 16, 2013 3:25 pm | by Brian Santo | Articles | Comments
"Reverse retrans" might merit some consideration. The Time Warner Cable / CBS dispute merely underlines what everyone knows: the retransmission consent process is utterly out of control. Some policy wonks are suggesting the solution is to eliminate retrans rules altogether.
Open Mic: Invest in employees, not new softwareSeptember 16, 2013 3:21 pm | by Tom Gorman president, opXL | Articles | Comments

The 1819 Hall rifle was the first in the world to be made completely with interchangeable parts, and it was manufactured here in the Mountain State. The gun is fired once a year, and it will go on display along with the resolution to make it the official state firearm.

First of all, don't buy this album unless you are fully prepared to sit down and actually listen to it. This is not ambient background music in any form; this new masterpiece from Southern Lord is carefully constructed to envelop the listener within its layers of sound. Also remember that this album has been made to listen to at high volumes on a quality stereo, or on high-quality earphones. This album is flawless in my opinion, and has been released with a measure of artistic vision and care that says much about the aims of the two respective bands.
"Altar" is a very appropriate title for the work, as every track within the album oozes with reverence for the Almighty Sound Wave. With each movement within each track, a new depth unveils itself with a unique personality. There seem to be distinct tones and methods of delivery for each member within this collaborative project.
The first track, "Etna" is a behemoth of a song, that while carrying an extremely dark, crushing overtone to its construction still manages to sound empowering in some way, or motivational. It begins with what sound like layers of distorted bass cellos and other strings, and then intensifies with the arrival of Anderson and O'Malley's droning guitars and a dynamic drum solo by Atsuo, the conclusion of which kicks off a mind-blowing, doom-emanating riff with Wata's errie, wailing guitars providing a startling high-end to a very deep track. "Etna" concludes with a minute or two of intense guitar feedback, before slicing off and entering the second "track".
"N.L.T" seems to be an afterthought to "Etna", if you were to view the album as a whole from a narrative sense. It begins with a droning bowed upright bass impossibly down-tuned, and proceeds through the song with layers of similar sound without any major alterations in the song structure. There are drums on this track, but they are hardly used to keep any sort of time. They are a succession of rapid cymbal and gong rolls that seem to move from back to front. The entire track gives off a very natural, acoustic vibe, but still manages to be as intense as "Etna" is. The song heavily suggests downward motion to me, as through the listener is being drawn into the depths of some endless chasm by the sheer will of Sound.
"The Sinking Belle (Blue Sheep)" is a disarmingly relaxing track that smoothes off the tension and intensity of the previous two songs, marking a midway-point in the album. It is composed of dreamy, reverb-laden clean guitars and quiet, careful drumming. Accentuating the framework of the song are atmospheric "space-echo" guitars and piano. This is the first track on the album to feature vocals, which are near-whispered with a trembling quality by folk-singer Jesse Sykes. The relaxed, more conventional feel of "Belle" may seem a bit out of place in the album as a whole, but it is made in a way that seems natural doesn't break the continuity of the album's progression.
"Akuma no Kuma" revisits the triumphant approach that "Etna" opens the album with, featuring epic synth, bass and guitars that seem to be configured with a rolling-modulation, and contains an almost bombastic feel, the sensation of which is increased by the emergence of electronic horns which recall a stereotypical old-Hollywood ancient-Rome feel to them. The voice of Joe Preston of Thrones, Earth and High on Fire fame is featured on this track, his vocals translated through a vocoder synthesized to match the modulation of the synth and guitars that make up the body of the song. The song's force and intensity rises as it progresses, and by the track's end basically becomes the sonic equivalent of smoking Salvia.
"Fried Eagle Mind" is a drifting, unsettling track that is mostly composed of "trippy" clean guitars, ambience and softly-sung vocals by Wata, and is very unnerving for me to listen to. Where "Akuma" seems to be intended to excite and inspire the listener, "Mind" lulls the listener into a coma filled with the primal images of the sleeping mind as Wata atonally whispers "soft clouds… dream… sleep…", before eventually dissolving into a chaotic static soup of cavernous noise.
The final track on "Altar" is called "Blood Swamp", and features Kim Thayil of Soundgarden on guitar. "Swamp" is extremely heavy and dense in its sound, and is a roaring, unrepentant drone track with ambient overtones that is easily the most foreboding song on the album. The song sounds as though it is emanating from deep underwater, and concludes the overall experience of the album by smashing your brains and eardrums to a pulp.
I wholly believe that this album was created with the intention of being experienced, as opposed to just listened to. Southern Lord's releases generally have a strong visual element to them, and Altar is among their finest in this respect. The limited edition release available from SL's website includes a gatefold case with a ten-page booklet containing photographs of the two bands in black robes standing in a cornfield. Sprinkled among those are shots of cave complexes, black monoliths and some Escher-esque artwork. Additionally this version of the album includes a second disk which contains a 8-minute long drone track entitled "Her Lips Were Wet with Venom" featuring the legendary Dylan Carson of Earth doing some guitar work similar to his recent Earth release "Hex".
This is a true synthesis between two amazing projects, and it has certainly been worth my time to sit down, kill the lights, put on headphones and absorb the Altar.

New News on New Ron D. Moore series pilot
Not Caprica, but another series he's developing for Fox called Virtuality.
Sounds interesting - I've never heard of that 2005 novel though.
I remember reading Moore talk about 'Virtuality' before but I didn't even realise it had gone into production at all yet.
The concept is intriguing and I'm always up for more Ron Moore shows!
