Size of an Assisted Living Residence
What is the average size of an assisted living residence?
Its safe to say that there is no typical size of an assisted living residence. After all, the multitude of individuals and their families who are on the search for an assisted living residence are accustomed to a huge variety of living situations, and as such, many different types of homes available are to fit the populations needs.
Assisted living residences come in all sizes and styles, and they vary in appearance, room layout, privacy, and types of services offered. An assisted living residence could be a small home with just a few people, or a high-rise apartment building with hundreds of residents. All facilities are the same in that they offer private living quarters and common areas for meals, socializing and activities. Many have gardens, fireplaces, atriums, and couches. Usually, the central dining areas look more like banquet rooms and often offer entertainment during or after meals.
Living quarters could be just a single room, or a full one or two-bedroom apartment. Apartment-style assisted living facilities include a kitchenette, and some include a full kitchen. Prepared meals would still be served in a common dining area regardless of whether or not there are private kitchens. Some residences offer private rooms with private baths, others only offer single rooms shared with one or more seniors. Detached or attached housing is not compatible with assisted living since it hinders the ability to monitor the elders health, and is not an option in any residency. Most residences are built to be very comfortable and home-like, equipped to the benefit of the residents.

"I could tell by his eyes that something was bad wrong," said Wayne McIntyre. The news was delivered by a family friend. His son, 20-year-old Brandon McIntyre, on Sunday, was a drowning victim on Lake Alan Henry.
"I viewed him today (Monday), and that's when it set in," he said. "I really didn't believe it until I was at the funeral home today. Sometimes I zone out and get stuck, my chest hurts, it feel real empty," said McIntyre.
Kind, gentle, big hearted, and mellow. On Saturday afternoon Brandon and two friends were swimming in the lake when things went horribly wrong. According to authorities, the three friends were heading back to shore when Brandon called for help. His friend turned to see Brandon's head slip under water. He was able to grab him but Brandon struggled, breaking free. His friend then dove underneath Brandon, pushing him up by his swimsuit. But Brandon continued to fight, slipping away into the lake. It would be 16 hours before his body would be found.
"People think they're safe on the water and they're not," said Garza County Constable Daniel Yarbro. He patrols the lake, a body of water 11 miles long with an average depth of 40 feet, claiming upwards of seven lives over the past 10 years. "The victim in the drowning was approximately 50 feet off the shore when he was recovered," said Yarbro.
A victim who had plans for his summer all sewed up. "This summer when I go to hang dry wall, he ain't going to be there with me," said childhood fried Chris Baker. His body language speaking louder than any words of grief. "I'm a guy, I don't like to show my emotions," he said, sitting motionless, devoid of any energy.
"We're just trying to remember the good times," said another friend. A sorrow and shock that reached beyond family and friends, even impacting the men who've seen it before. "Do you ever get used to it?," a reporter asked Constable Yarbro. "No," he shot back. "No... you can't. You can't get used to it," said Yarbro.
"I'm glad he touched my life. Wouldn't have been the same without him," said Brandon's father.

This one has tricky bolt-protected face climbing and a splitter thin-hands corner, and it even stays dry in the rain. There is a second pitch as of 2008, which wasn't freed on the first ascent but is likely 5.11. There is a hard wide section with a swift's nest in it so this pitch might be good to save for the fall or winter.
Huge right leaning, right facing corner/forming arch on the north side of 313, on the first roadside wall encountered after passing Class Act and the large recess in the cliffline.
Quickdraws, a double set of cams to #3 camalot with extra #1 camalots for the first pitch. For the second pitch take the double set plus a few big pieces to #6 camalot and some extra #.5 and #.75 camalots for the roof.

This is another "one thing leads to another" post. Does this happen to you, too? You set out to accomplish one chore, which creates another, and then leaves you with another... and suddenly you got one thing done and have 7 more to do.
Returning from PIQF with a bit (ahem) of fabric meant that, in order to put it away, I really had to deal with the Fabric Closet. This is a regular bedroom style closet (not, alas, a walk-in) in my small office/studio, and it had reached the point where something fell out at me every time I slid open a door.
So, I spent Monday folding and straightening and sorting and weeding out stuff I don't want any more. That picture up there is the CLEANED UP version. Don't snicker. It's about as good as it gets. And to make room and make it all accessible, I took out my Big Bin of Scraps and have yet to find another home for it.
I moved on to other pressing business, but meanwhile, the bin of scraps is sitting here on my office floor, looking like this:
Those blue plastic bags are those giant hefty bag things in which I have sorted dark strips, light strips, and blacks. It was a handy sort for one project at some point. Anyway, so every time I walk into my office -- about 20 times a day -- I see the Big Bin of Scraps and think, "I should do something with those."
I've been in a finishing mood (two old projects finished in the last two weeks! Yee haw! Pictures to appear when I figure out where to photograph the big beasties) and getting rid of scraps will feel good. (Is it possible to get rid of scraps in any way other than simply giving or throwing them away???) Last night I pulled out the wonderful book by Freddy Moran and Gwen Marston, and decided I'd make a bunch of "art parts" for assembly into something colorful and fun.
That's the plan for later today, after I put dinner in the crockpot, deal with another load of laundry, and take the dog for a walk. But in my morning blog-reading, I popped into Exuberant Color, to see that Wanda has been playing with her strippy scraps, too. Great inspiration to get moving!

If you've ever visited Seaside in South Walton, chances are you've visited the town's longest established restaurant, Bud and Alley's
Now, the popular eatery is expanding east to Panama City Beach.
Owner Dave Rauschkolb said he's been eying the Lighthouse Marina on grand lagoon for sometime and jumped at the chance to bring bud and alley's to Bay County.
It's a move that's exciting tourists as well.
Eating at Bud and Alley's Pizza Bar for the first time, Tuesday, Swen Gildness was an instant Bud and Alley's fan.
"I just got here last night, I'm on vacation. My buddy sent me over here. I had the special. It was great. It was awesome," said Gildnes.
Though he's never been to Florida before, learning another Bud and Alley's is making its way to another waterside spot has his tour of the beach headed east.
"Yeah, yeah, you bet," he said.
"It's quite an extraordinary place and I couldn't be more excited to be there," said Rauschkolb of Grand Lagoon in Panama City Beach and the current Boatyard Restaurant location; the new home for Bud and Alley's Restaurant and Marina Club.
"Frankly, being in Grand Lagoon is a very exciting prospect. Everyone there has been incredibly welcoming," he said.
He's hoping for a mid march opening after the deal went through this past weekend.
Bud and Alley's fans can expect much of the same, with a little twist.
"The menus are going to be very similar. We're actually going to turn the sushi par downstairs into a pizza bar. Probably the primary difference is that you'll be able to come to Bud and Alley's by boat," said Rauschkolb.
Of course, the new business will mean 80 to 100 new jobs. Bud and Alley's will be accepting applications starting January 15th.

For those of you who commonly believe that the Oilers' self-described re-build started in December, 2009 (when the team was on the outside of the playoffs and Hemsky and Khabibulin were deemed injured for the season), we are now exactly 1.5 years into it. Most of us realize that like the recession of '08, the markings of an uncompetitive team, and therefore an inevitable "re-build" could be evidenced as early as 2007, and the true re-construction of the Oil back to a championship-calibre team is now over 4 years into the making.
Several silver linings exist adjacent a couple of ugly last-place finishes - and their names and pedigrees are well-documented. If you just spent $100 on lettering an Oilers jersey with NUGENT-HOPKINS, you my friend are consuming the lump of sugar that helps to go down with your medicine. However the illness is still lingering.
As one of those guys who actually believes that Tambellini has a plan or at the very least a functioning human brain, I believe the remedy to fix the blueline is both calculated and imminent - and by imminent I believe we'll be sporting a D corps that we can be proud of within the calendar year.
Here's why:
This was a good UFA season to sit on the sidelines, or even better, acquire low-cost depth talent. I applaud the signings of Belanger and think Barker was a reasonable risk. What I'm glad we DIDN'T do, was throw a ridiculous amount of money at James Wisniewski or Jan Hejda. We'll leave that to desperate men.
The 2012 UFA season is, 11.5 months ahead of time, looking like a veritable bumper crop. And, with the 2011 UFA's getting stupid rich, perhaps these guys will be more inclined, as Shea Weber is positioning to do, to become UFA's to seek the grand pay-day. Take a look at this snapshot of potential 2012 UFA's on the blue and tell me how many of these guys would immediately fit into the Oilers' top 4:
Beauchemin, Boychuk, Burns, Carle, Coburn, Jackman (STL), Oduya, Roszival, Suter, Tyutin, Weber, Wideman, Zanon
And if you don't like them (or better, they don't like us), there are all sorts of consolation prizes in: Barker, Coliaccovo, Kubina, Liles, Saarich, Spacek, and Colin White.
Let's even assume that half those guys sign on a line that is dotted in between now and UFA season next year, it still leaves 10 decent guys left on the radar, right when Smytty's big cap hit comes off the books.
HERE's WHAT TAMBELLINI NEEDS TO DO TO SAVE HIS JOB:
Most of the guys who sign in advance of UFA day sign for a bit less money. It's probably a safe bet that a guy like Brent Burns re-up's in San Jose for $4-5M. Tambellini needs to take similar action. If I were him I would pursue a team who looks to be out of playoff contention in January (like Nashville or Minnesota), and see if I can't pry Zanon or Suter out of them for a pair of lesser grade prospects. I'm not opposed to throwing crazy money Shea Weber's way next Canada Day, but that might imply a more cost-effective 5-6 pairing instead of going the Vancouver model of $4-5M defensemen 1 through 6.
It's a big opportunity. Arguably the most talented crop of UFA D-men since the end of the lockout. Like I say, I've so far applauded ST's calculated approach to re-building, but he'll need to be proactive about improving our blueline over the next calendar year if we want to end our playoffless drought by the spring of 2013.

But wait...there's more!
More goodies for you Maniacs...
1) Troll Danago vs. one of our top 5 funny Mania regulars, Mr. PW - President of the Brock Lesnar Pain Train :
Danago:Cain will end Brocks career and probably make Brock suicide. Simple as that, brocks getting it the hard way. He's getting beat on 5 rds straight, cain will do what ever he wants with brock. – Watch it for yourself kids, I'm calling it right now. No way can brock keep up with Cain for 5rds. – The first few rds will simple be a matter of Cain moving around, playing it safe. Come the 3rd rd, thats when the beating comes. Brock can't handle losing, but in this fight he's getting fucked up for 5 rds. Cain will make brock his bitch no doubt. Ultimately, brock will commit suicide Monday morning.. You watch kids
P-Dub: In the event that you're wrong, will you commit suicide on Monday morning? Or would that be unfair to all the super-elite fighters who would just be nightclub bouncers without your awesome training?
Danago: I'm never wrong, so don't even go there home boy. In all my years of watching mma I've never, not once been wrong. I'm badass, been watching this sport from the very first day – watch every fight atleast twice. So yeah, back off me kid. I'm the boss
P-Dub: You called Toney over Couture. Any credibility you may have had went flying out the window with that crappy single leg that a 12-year-old with polio could have avoided. And since you personally trained Toney for that fight, I dare say you did not do a particularly good job.
Danago: That was just me pretending, it was a act. – i cashed in mills on that fight son, so gtfo. Actually, get off my site. – I can see what you're goign to type before you have..So back off. I can look into your username, and find out where you live etc, everything. Just from that username. So gtfo my balls kid. Moving on
Danago: Get your ass over here son. Like i said, i have 55 street fights under my belt, 78 mma fights. Bring your ass down here, I have a beating waiting for everyone. The hell, you better bring a ref to, if not, I'll get done for murder. I'll lay your ass out
P-Dub: I WATCH EVERY FIGHT THAT HAS EVER BEEN FOUGHT SIMULTANEOUSLY ON AN ENDLESS LOOP INSIDE MY OWN HEAD, SO YOUR KNOWLEDGE IS COMPLETE ISH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Danago: SAME, YEAH I TYPE IN CAPITALS BECAUSE I THINK ITS COOL, Kid. – That doesnt make you cool kid. You come in here with your capitals thinking you are some big shit. I know your game, gtfo with that. I've watched every fight in slow motion… braking every technique down, YOU AINT GOT ISH
P-Dub: Every battle technique, dating back to the naked oil wrestling of ancient Greece, the sneaky assassinations of the Ninjas, to modern boxing, Muay Thai, jiu jitsu and everything else has been personally witnessed by me! I have cataloged every conceivable skill and technique in the gigantic database known as my brain and trained my brain to store all of this information in frontal lobe, leaving it all available for immediate deployment at less than an instant's notice. Even with all that, I may still simply decide to come to you like a spider monkey. You have nothing. Do you hear me? Nothing!!!!
Danago: You dip shit.. You dip shit.. I'm effin programmed.. I know to much, believe me. I can see into the future, i know every champion, i know who wins all the fights. – So i KNOW Cain will beat brock up, i know that.. So don't come in here with that ish.. I started training at 2.. I'm a target to the UFC, you know that? You know i make 10mill per ufc event from events? – because I know all the winners. You know jack ish compared to me son, call me uo and we can fight.. I know all the matrix shit.. which you dumbass's have no clue about..
P-Dub: If you can truly see into the future then tell us how far up your ass my foot will go. I have trained lethal kicks for 86 years in Mexico in the martial art of piedra-culo. And you know it's the truth because how else would Mexico produce 84% of all NFL kickers?
Danago: I'm off now, to busy for this.I don't have time to sit my ass down all day talking to dumb kids, who know nothing about my sport. – I actually have a life, I have money, i have bitches, i got it all
Our lives change like the weather, but a legend never dies.

2) I'm calling it now: UFC 119 will be one of the best shows of the year.
Hopefully this will go better than when I correctly predicted that the Faber/Aldo WEC car would be the most exciting PPV ever, and then got banned from BE because of it. Anyway here we go:
UFC 119 is being universally panned nearly everywhere from legit media to fans to blogging trolls (cough cough Luke Thomas cough cough), but I just dont see it. Sure this card doesn't have that huge headlining title fight but otherwise the card is stacked with exciting fights that are also very relevant. I actually can't remember a recent UFC card with so many relevant fights. Lets Take a look:
Melvin/Stephens- Great fight between 2 young gun slingers with loads of potential. Sure both have clear weaknesses but at the same time they are very young and have a lot of time to improve. The winner of this fight is still probably a few quality wins away from being considered in the title picture but as far as excitement goes this has fireworks written all over it. Two fast young LW strikers with KO power going at it sounds like a great way to start a PPV.
Serra/Lytle- Another fight that has a great chance of being a barn burner. The winner of this fight instantly jumps into the title picture for one final run at the belt. A win for Serra would surely move him past the novelty fights he has been taking and into fighting some serious contenders at 170. On the other hand a win for Lytle would give him a 4 fight win streak all in exciting fashion, surely leading the UFC to set him up with a top WW with a favorable stylistic match-up.
Dunham/Sherk- Former champ against young up and comer. The winner of this fight will most likely be 1 fight away from a title shot. Sure to be a fast paced exciting fight.
Nog/Bader- Another fight where the winner will be a fight away from a title shot. The winner of this will be getting the pleasure of fighting Jon Jones for #1 contendership.
Mir/Cro Cop- Ok I will give you that this isnt really PPV headlining worthy but what most forget is that before Mir's last loss he was on his way to becoming a legit promotional superstar. This fight is a perfect stylistic matchup for excitement. While Mir is still not close to another title shot, I feel that with a win Cro Cop will be fast tracked for 1 last run. This is a fight I always wondered about back in the Pride/UFC days and I am happy I am finally getting to see it.
So in this main card alone you have 2 fights where the winners will get a #1 contender fight, 1 Welterweight gearing up for one last run to the top, a young exciting LW striker will emerge as a future contender, and a Pride/UFC battle that may be able to invoke a fair amount of nostalgia. Not to mention that the undercard may supply us with some exciting finishes, in my mind while not top heavy this card is a must buy and will pack more excitement than most other UFCs.

Most farmers striving for organic certification are well aware that they need to be certified as a producer. However, in many cases an organic farmer may also need to be certified as an organic handler.
Answer the following question:
Do you grow organic crops, raise livestock, or harvest wild crops and then sell your raw goods directly to a buyer, including consumers at your farm or at the farmers' market, to local restaurants or to grocers?
If you answered yes to the above question than you'll need to be certified as an organic producer but you don't need to be certified as an organic handler.
Answer the following questions:
- Do you make dairy products, such as butter, cheese or yogurt on your farm?
- Do you make any value-added crop products such as salsa, jam or roasted tomatoes on your farm that will later be sold to consumers?
- Do you slaughter organic livestock on your farm? (This is rare, but does happen).
- Do you pasteurize milk on your farm?
- Do you unpack and repackage organic foods into different containers?
- Do you process ANY products not mentioned above on your farm? Note that this is with the understanding that processing refers to cooking, dehydrating, baking, curing, churning, heating, canning, drying, mixing, freezing, grinding, separating, extracting, cutting, fermenting, distilling or preserving food items that will later be sold to consumers.
If you answered yes to one or more of the questions above, there's a good chance you'll need to be certified as an organic producer and also be certified as an organic handler.
Sometimes there are exceptions to duel certification and a producer certification may cover your activities on the farm. As always, the best way to be sure you're following National Organic Program (NOP) regulations is to ask your personal organic certifying agent about what certification you'll need.

"I'm a fan of dark chocolate. I enjoy the flavor minus the additives that milk chocolate has. I have to admit I have never thought of adding salt as I don't add salt to any of my food. I was pleasantly surprised at the flavor of this truffle. The genoche is rich and tastes very good. The salt is a pleasant addition to the flavor and nicely contrasts the chocolate. Well worth trying!"

Israeli President Shimon Peres warned late Saturday an attack on Iran was "more and more likely," days before a report by the UN nuclear watchdog on Iran's nuclear programme. He told Israeli private television's second channel: "The intelligence services of the different countries that are keeping an eye on (Iran) are worried and putting pressure on their leaders to warn that Iran is ready to obtain the nuclear weapon."
"We must turn to these countries to ensure that they keep their commitments ... this must be done, and there is a long list of options," Peres declared. Israel on Thursday completed a major civil defence drill in the Tel Aviv region aimed at simulating a response to conventional and
non-conventional missile attacks, the military said.
Israel has also successfully tested what local media called a "ballistic missile", which a defence ministry official described to AFP as a long-scheduled "test firing of the rocket-propulsion system".
On Wednesday, Haaretz newspaper reported that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Defence Minister Ehud Barak were seeking to win cabinet support for a strike on Iran, which Israel and the West suspect is looking to build an atomic bomb.
Haaretz said no decision had yet been taken on any military strike, and that a November 8 report from the International Atomic Energy Agency nuclear watchdog would have a "decisive effect" on the decision-making process. Previous IAEA assessments have centred on Iran's efforts to produce
fissile material -- uranium and plutonium -- that can be for power generation and other peaceful uses, and also in a nuclear bomb. But the new update, which diplomats say will be circulated among envoys on Tuesday or Wednesday, will focus on Iran's alleged efforts to put the radioactive material in a warhead and to develop missiles to carry them to a target.
Israeli experts have described the Iranian programme as "alarming," and Foreign Minister Avigdor Lieberman has said the report would prove "beyond doubt" its military aims. He hoped Iran would be targeted by a new series of international sanctions.
On Monday, Barak was forced to deny media reports that he and Netanyahu had already decided to launch an attack against Iran over the opposition of military and intelligence chiefs. But he said "situations could arise in the Middle East under which Israel must defend its vital interests independently, without having to rely on other regional or other forces." Haaretz said a majority of the 15 members of Israel's security cabinet were against an attack on Iran for the moment. Only that body can take such a monumental decision.
Many Israeli leaders stress that Israel is incapable of launching such an operation without having coordinated it with the United States and without a US green light. A poll published by Haaretz on Thursday found Israeli public opinion divided on a strike against Iran's nuclear facilities, with 41 percent in favour, 39 percent opposed and 20 percent undecided.
Israel has consistently warned all options remain on the table when it comes to Iran's nuclear programme, which the Jewish state and Western governments fear masks a drive for nuclear weapons. Iran denies any such ambition and insists its nuclear programme is for power generation and medical purposes only.
Foreign Minister Ali Akbar Salehi said Thursday that Iran was "prepared for the worst," warning the United States against heading for confrontation with Tehran.

YouTube Launches First Paid Channel Subscriptions Starting at $1 Per Month
Inevitable as it was, YouTube has finally rolled out the initial phase of its first ever attempt at paid subscription content. The 30 channels offered in this 'pilot program' span a wide range of demographics and subject matter — which is to be expected from the place where a vast majority of web video lives. Especially judging by these first 30 channels, this news likely won't have no-budget filmmakers screaming anything about a 'self-distribution revolution,' but it certainly offers a more direct line of monetization for content owners than ad-based revenue. Viewers can try out any of the channels with a two-week free trial, and they start at $1 a month. Read on for more details. More »

What do you think? Can the 'Cats upend the Gators on their senior day and impinge ever so slightly on the awareness of the basketball world with something other than head coach abuse? Maybe.
Kentucky rolls into Gainsville in a very strange state. After an excellent performance Wednesday night which saw Bobby Perry extend his good play to two games and some promising performances from Jodie Meeks, Ramel Bradley and Randloph Morris, UK finds itself facing a Florida Gator team in the midst of a slump. Florida has dropped 3 of its last four games, but this stat is slightly misleading - every one of them has been a road game, and the road in the SEC eventually catches up with almost everyone.
At home, however, Florida is perfect. In fact, Florida hasn't just beaten teams at home, they have obliterated them, with only UAB and Ole Miss coming within 10 points. Smarting from a midweek loss to Tennessee that only a powerful comeback prevented from being an outright embarrassment, the Gators will be highly motivated against Kentucky.
Florida by the numbers
Since I just looked at Florida a few weeks ago, I will refer you to this post for most of the statistical information - very little has changed since then.
A couple of interesting aggregated statistics pop up from recent performances. Kentucky had it's 4th best offensive efficiency of the season against Georgia at 127, but there is no trend there except for consistency on defense (the Vanderbilt and Tennessee games being exceptions).
Florida, on the other hand, has shown a recent marked downward trend in defensive efficiency. During the early and middle part of the season, it was routine for Florida to post DE's in the 90's, 80's and even 70's. But only once in the last 5 games has Florida posted a DE under 100, and that was against lowly South Carolina.
Taurean Green has been significantly off his game for the last four contests, averaging only 7 points and two assists. Joakim Noah has also seen his production slip lately, producing double-digit points only once in the last four games. Lee Humprhey has cooled off his deadly perimeter shooting, averaging 33% over the last 4 games. Among Florida's dynamic starting five, only Al Horford has maintained his mid-season form.
What it all means
Kentucky and Florida are both highly motivated to win this game. The Wildcats haven't beaten a top team all season, and Florida's seeding in the tournament could slip dramatically if they drop three games in a row. With UK on a slight up-tick and UF on a definite downward trend, this game has all the earmarks of a potential classic. Throw in senior day at Florida and the UK fan anger at Tubby Smith, and this game takes on a life of its own far beyond the repercussions for either team in post season play.
In order to win, UK must rebound with the Gators like they did in Lexington. In addition, they must do something they failed to do in Lexington - shoot the ball well. Defense is important, but putting the ball in the basket is the ultimate object of this game. The questions UK must answer mostly yes to are:
- Will Bobby Perry continue his good offensive play?
- Will Randolph Morris bring the energy he had against Georgia into Gainsville?
- Can the 'Cats ever find a way to limit turnovers to a respectable number (14 isn't that good, but for this team it would be stellar).
- Can we find a way to neutralize Florida's big men?
- Will Joe Crawford or Jodie Meeks step up?
Bottom line - I look for a good game here. I feel UK is rounding into form, and Florida may have peaked too soon this year. Chance for UK to pull off a season-defining upset.

Nervous about opening this one, as the first one I bought exploded in my cellar. No problems with this one though.
Poured dark brown with mahogany color shining through when held up to the light. 3 finger mocha colored head with an above average aggressive pour.
Smell is dark chocolate, roasted grain, and some light smokiness. and is there the slightest hint of banana in there? or just my imagination, sort of smells like chocolate covered bananas.
Taste is pretty chocolate forward to me with some smokiness again, not quite as banana flavored as in the nose, but still there just a tad.
Mouthfeel is acceptable, but a little thin for my preference.
Overall this is a really good porter would love to see this bottled in 12 oz quantities with a more reasonable price tag, but this is hardly too expensive at $5.50 a bomber.

Review from BeerAdvocate Magazine Issue #50 (March 2011):
Head reaches high, then leaves big clumps of lace on the glass. A black color is all that was expected, and it was deliv- ered. Roasted edge of unsweetened chocolate, burnt raisin fruitiness and a level hop resin make up the nose. Smooth and creamy, with a bitty roasted bite that kicks things off. Deep charcoal and undertones of coffee and cocoa powder blanket the palate. Slight warmth of alcohol lends a burnt currant flavor, and the hops go leafy and earthy, which ends up complimenting the roasted flavors. Hint of yeast in the bittersweet finish. The Porter throws down hard in a robust manner without being so big that it detracts from drinkability. A serious Porter here.

Thanks to bu11zeye for sharing this bottle.
The beer pours a dark reddish-brown color with a huge off-white head. The aroma is toffee, brown sugar and roasted malt. The flavor is toffee, chocolate and roasted malt. Medium mouthfeel and medium carbonation. A good porter.

Big thanks to gawnphishin for the chance to try this. Very cool WWII-esque line-art graphics on the label (depicting the brewmaster's grandfather I think).
Poured from a waxed 22oz bomber into my Dogfish Head shaped pint glass.
Bottle conditioned I presume considering the enormous heft of rocky sponge-like foam that fills the glass despite a careful pour. Eventually it settles down to a messy smattering of light tan suds covering a very dark brown yet clear liquid with very faint rufous highlights. Superior retention, sticky thick lacing.
Roast malt has a woodsy aroma along with faint cocoa and vanilla. There is some caramel as well, though this could be a hint of diacetyl.
Very rich coffee, light smoke, faint toffee and bittersweet chocolate (as noted by the brewer), and an array of well blended specialty malts. Dry lightly bitter finish with somewhat grassy hop notes and maybe a whisper of citrus.
Mildly astringent, crisp, though perhaps over-carbonated for the style.
Unique, bold, and flavorful porter - it tastes like some "Imperial" porters I've had except without the high ABV or heavy roast qualities, which keeps the drinkability high.
Worth seeking out - this would be a regular purchase for me if I lived in the region (especially if I lacked access to Anchor, Deschutes, etc).

Pours a ruddy mahogany with 2+ fingers of mocha colored head. Stellar lacing & above average head retention
S: Roasted grains & a touch of dark fruittyness
T: A touch of chocolate, roasted grain & herbal hops, some smokeyness & a touch of dark fruit up front. I could make an argument this skews more towards English porter, but it's too rich & beefy...Dark choclate, a touch of licorice & dryness surface as this warms, plus some chicory/molasses. Finishes roasty, dry & with a slight stringent/coffee ground bite with just a bit of booze burn on the roof of my mouth & a bit of baker's chocolate. Almost pulled a 4.5
MF: Creamy with moderate carbonation, nice maltyness, plus a touch of oilyness once warm
Drinks very easy, a good stab at the style. Nice to see a beer from the Sooner state I can proudly share ( there are few others, but not always available ), well done Marshall! can't wait to try this on draft, preferably nitro or dare I dream? cask at Mc Nellies!

MBC's Big Jamoke pours up with a modest carbonation that creates a very creamy beige-khaki brown head that encompasses the very dark brown-mahogany body. The roasted malty aroma features cocao nibs, coffee grounds and blackstrap molasses with a slight plum fruitiness. Hints of some earthy/minty late hops emerge as it warms in hand. The flavor starts off with a pleasant caramel & butter toffee sweetness that is underscored by an subtle, but emerging bitterness that combines with the chocolate & roasted barley to create a substantial bittersweet finish. This bold medium to medium-full bodied robust porter shows just a touch of warmth with a pleasant creaminess and is amazingly drinkable on cask. This is a finely crafted brew blurs the line between a traditional Robust Porter & American Stout featuring a solid roastiness and powered by some warming alcohol making it a fine choice for those cold winter nights on the Frontier Strip! Here's to the brave airmen that flew the Big Jamoke (B-25)+others like her in WW2 and to the namesake beer that keeps its memory alive!

Poured from 22oz bottle. Thanks goes out to SuperNova777 for bringing this bottle over.
A- Pours a near black deep brown color. Hints of red highlight just hits the edge of the glass when held to the light. Two finger cocoa colored head shows medium retention. Lacing on the glass shows some light streaks when taking drinks.
S- Roasted malts with hints of chocolate in the front of the aroma. Coffee with a huge roast character to it and some toffee come in as a secondary aroma. Lastly in the ending of the nose is smoke, hints of roast, and light earthy hops.
T- Roasted malts in the front of the beer. This starts to give way to a light chocolate flavor with a hint of vanilla in the background. Toffee notes also jump out more so in the middle. Ending has more of a light smoked malt lingering with roasted coffee giving way to the dominate back flavor. Alcohol is light and only brushes the palate.
M- Medium mouthfeel. Carbonation is good for the style. Chocolate, roasted malts, and hint of smoke are left on the palate. Aftertaste is alcohol, light chocoalte, smoke, and hints of roasted coffee. Flavors were blended well together for the style I thought. Off flavors are nowhere to be found in this beer. Medium alcohol drying on the palate.
O- This beer was good but there seemed to be something that was not quite there. I liked it a lot but there was a little something missing that would have made this beer amazing. I thought the abv was well hidden and never became a forefront of the beer.

Thanks Herf!
Pours black with mahogany edges. Big, fluffy khaki colored head. Roasted malt nose, with some chocolate, and light roasted coffee. There's a slight whiff of piny hops in the back. Big chocolate taste, with some light coffee roast notes, more roasted malts and a slight sweetness. Despite the big head, which seemed to allude to some carbonation issues, the feel was rather full, creamy and robust...quite wonderful on the palate. Overall, another solid, tasty Marshal offering!

22 oz bottle, 6.8% abv. Nearly pitch black, maybe just a bit of brown. Luscious mocha head. Very nice retention and lace.
Roasted malts, caramel, coffee and dark chocolate. Some darker fruit. American hop presence in the nose goes well with the fruity components.
Lots of roasty flavor, with a sharp edge. Bitterness lingers, giving an espresso-like feel. Dark fruits are held to a minimum. Long, bitter American hop finish.
Medium body, with a creamy feel. Alcohol is felt a bit, but not overwhelming. A well made beer here.

Poured the beer into a standard pint glass. After I drank it I came to the conclusion that a snifter would be a better choice of glassware to highlight this beer strong features.
A- poured ruby red and turns pretty much pitch black in the glass. There is very little head initially and it quickly disapeared. There is no carbonation and this translates to a very flat unappealing beer. Almost looks like a glass of dark red wine.
S- It smells substantially better than it looks. A pleasent dark chocolate aroma up front followed by rosted malts and coffee. Very pleasant.
T- Very intense flavors of dark chocolate and roasted malts with some dark fruit on the end. Very balance flavors and hardly any hint of the alchohal.
M- Very light almost watery feel. Simmilar to drinking a glass of win or juice.
O- I took one look at this beer and thought I would hate it but overall I enjoyed drinking this beer and would enjoy it again in a heartbeat. Dispite its unappealing appearance this beer taste really good and is very easy to drink. It would be an excellant entry level beer for someone new to stouts and porters. This beer reminds me of an ex girlfriend I once had. She is not sexy but knows how to satisfy.

Poured this 22 oz. waxed, brown bottle into a Sierra Nevada Hops glass. No date. Created a giant glass of foam. Really the most ridiculous head I have ever seen. (The bottle was sitting for well over a month undisturbed before pouring.) The massive head was tan and very resilient. What beer remained in the bottle began to develop a head too! When the body finally settled it was a dark, opaque brown.
The smell was clean roasted grain. Lightly nutty.
The taste was coffee and cocoa. Some nice roasty char which left a bittering finish. Well hidden alcohol.
The mouthfeel was medium to thin in body. There was not much carbonation left in the beer, it spent itself on the over the top head.

Waxed 22oz bottle received in a trade with Coldmeat. No bottled on date. Poured at 55 degrees into a tumbler.
A: Cola brown body with an off white head. Initial pour foams up four to five inches. Yikes! Doesn't really settle down much at any point.
S: Musty chocolate malt, chalk/mineral, and distinct vinegar sourness. Also a bit of that plastic smell I have gotten with some other Marshall brews, although not as apparent as in the lighter ones.
T: Surprisingly much better than the smell. Bold but smooth malt brings out some heavy coffee flavors. As it warms, there's also a slight tartness which adds a little color to things. Bitterness goes well with the coffee flavors. This definitely leans toward the charred, dry side so that you don't get much of the chocolate flavors common with many big porters - quite similar to an Irish Dry Stout.
M: Body is a little light, but well-within style, and despite the ridiculous head, this doesn't seem at all over-carbonated.
Despite being stored at proper temperatures and refrigerated for hours prior to opening, the foam was out of control. That, combined with the sour smell had me expecting the worst. Turned out that flavor and texture were decent, but overall, another sub-par Marshall beer for me.
Thanks for the opportunity Chris.
Edit: Second bottle I had late 2010 was better. Still heavily carbonated but not tart or gushing. Still some chalky and plastic flavors. Too musty and earthy for me. But I'm pretty sure that I had a bad bottle last time and am raising the store to reflect this.

UPDATE: Poured into a pint glass on 12/12/10. This beer is a beautiful pitch black, with a full caramel colored head. Aromas of dark fruit and rich roasted malts. Coffee and chocolate on the palate, along with some very slight alcohol. Medium bodied, very creamy texture. Lightly carbonated. A really good porter from the folks at Marshall, wish they brewed this one year-round. Need to stock up before they all disappear!

Being one of the better American Porters available in this region, I decided to put the Big Jamoke on my kegerator in early December. The beer is well balanced with no overpowering traits in particular. Hard to describe the traits beyond what is already on here. Very full flavored, fresh tasting Porter that, to me, is the flagship of the Marshall lineup. This is one of my favorite 3 or 4 beers made in Oklahoma.

Lost amidst the Strikeforce/Showtime extension and busy weekend in combat sports was the news the UFC has cut bantamweight Cole Escovedo, confirmed by the fighter via Twitter.
He made his UFC debut in May, losing a unanimous decision to Renan Barao at UFC 130. He followed that up with a second round TKO loss to Takeya Mizugaki at September's UFC 135 and a unanimous decision defeat to Alex Caceres at November's UFC on Fox 1.
The 30-year-old is the answer to a minor MMA trivia question as he was the WEC's first featherweight champion, winning the belt back in October 2002 with a first round submission win over Philip Perez. He defended the title successfully once before losing the belt to some guy named Urijah Faber nearly four years later, the first WEC title reign for the "California Kid".
While recent years haven't been kind to the 17-6 Escovedo (he's lost five of his last six), he's fought several notable fighters like Faber, Jens Pulver, Bart Palaszewski and Michael McDonald twice. He gave McDonald his only career loss back in May 2009.

Scare in the sky: Pilot injured by laser pointed from ground
WOODBURY - A JetBlue pilot suffered an eye injury while at the helm of an 80-passenger flight after someone on the ground apparently flashed a laser into the cockpit. The pilot radioed a nearby control center to report two green flashes that were fired into the cockpit from somewhere in the Deer Park area. The nighttime flight from Syracuse was able to land safely at John F. Kennedy International Airport, and none of the passengers were hurt. The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) says the number of laser incidents has skyrocketed in the past five years. There were nearly 3,600 incidents reported last year alone, the agency says. The FAA says it is investigating the incident. Interfering with a flight crew is considered a federal crime.

ensberg was interviewed a few minutes ago. he seems like a really funny guy. says he has no real tactic when hitting his homeruns just goes up and was just swinging as hard as he could hoping he touches the ball. said he was surprised he didn't roll over on it and hit it to the short stop like he usually does which was pretty funny. he said he is so happy to be in San Diego and was really nervous on his way to the park today, but living by the beach and being in SD is exactly what he wants.
most importantly he says he hasn't played 2b since he was 9 years old and didn't even want to be playing there, but he said he is willing to do whatever the club wants down the stretch and knows the importance of being flexible during the playoff race. from everything i heard he is the type of player that plays better when he gets more plate appearances, so i think he would be happier playing everyday and most likely would produce better results. what do you guys think... do we give him some chances at 2b to keep him and kouz getting lots of playing time??

The retail sector online is a continually evolving marketplace, and for many of our clients the first decision they must make is whether to offer "online shopping" or not.
For one client, Exotica Flowers & Plants (www.exoticaflora.com), their product set made the decision simple. Offering delivery of flowers and plants to various locations in the Middle East is an ideal online shopping business model and, with our help, their website offers an easy, intuitive and secure shopping experience.
Exotica were not new to the online shopping environment, although we're happy to say that since we were commissioned to redevelop their website and its subsequent launch in early 2011, Exotica have seen a consistent month on month increase in sales. We recently extended their site to include full mobile device support.
Naturally, a retailer needs to be able to offer promotional pricing or run "sales" periodically, and therefore our content management and back office administration systems are uniquely designed to handle a variety of scenarios, from simple percentage based campaigns through to complex product, area and time based promotions.
It's important to remember that with online shopping available 24/7, comes added back office tasks associated with order administration and fulfilment. That's where our Order Processing & Delivery systems kick in, allowing you to process and track the order, from receipt and allocation through production and on to its ultimate delivery.
Our PCI DSS certified payment gateways seemlessly integrate with all of the ecommerce enabled websites we produce, with support for growing number of payment processors including MasterCard MIGS, Visa's CyberSource, Authorize.net and PayPal.
Not all retail sites are suited to real-time orders, so in these cases we adopt similar content presentation techniques as those found on the online shopping sites we produce.
For example at Antoine Saliba Jewellery (www.antoinesaliba.com), where the value of the products on offer make them less attractive for credit card purchase, and Affliction Clothing in the UAE (www.affliction.ae) who currently only off their products through physical retail channels.

I bought tickets to this weekend's Baseball Prospectus event at the Ballpark. Unfortunately, an unexpected commitment will prevent me from attending. Below is the itinerary of the event. Last year's Q&A with JD and Don Welke as well as BP's Jason Parks was worth the price of admission itself. Parks will be back, along with Jason Cole and JD will be participating in the Q&A session. If you would be interested in taking one or both of the tickets I bought, please reply here. I paid $64.01 each, but price is entirely negotiable.
11:45 AM - 12:00 PM: Arrive at Texas Rangers Hall of Fame beyond the first base entrance to the stadium and line up at Hall of Fame entrance doors
12:00 - 12:20: Check in at the reception table inside the Hall of Fame and receive your tickets. Proceed to the Hall of Fame auditorium
12:20 - 12:30: Baseball Prospectus staff introductions and itinerary details explained
12:30 - 1:10: Texas Rangers GM Jon Daniels and members of the Rangers staff participate in group Q & A
1:15 - 1:45: Baseball Prospectus staff members participate in group Q & A
1:45: Group directed to seats in the Upper Home Run Porch. (Each ticket includes unlimited grilled chicken sandwiches, hot dogs, nachos, peanuts, popcorn, and soft drinks, served in the air-conditioned grill behind the Upper Home Run Porch. Food service begins when the ballpark gates open and ends two hours after the scheduled game time.)
2:05: Game start time - Texas Rangers vs. the Seattle Mariners
Additionally, each ticket is entitled to a $15 coupon to be used toward a new Baseball Prospectus Premium subscription or a Premium renewal. Subscription coupons will be emailed 2-3 weeks after the game. It's a fun event and I wish I could go. Hopefully someone here can enjoy the game.

MADISON (WKOW) -- People looking into senior living facilities got some free help in Madison Saturday.
The 3rd annual Family Caregiver Resource Fair was held at the Warner Park Community Recreation Center. People were able to attend workshops and meet with representatives from 35 community-based organizations that serve as caregivers.
"I had a care giving experience that was very difficult and after it ended I just decided that I really wanted to help other caregivers ease their experience by becoming involved in the care giving network," event organizer Diane Walder tells 27 News.
Those in attendance could learn about how to choose senior housing and home care options.

In July 2012, I wrote about Ramiro Gómez, a San Bernardino native who paints images of nannies, gardeners and valet parking attendants on cardboard cutouts and installs them in the same wealthy neighborhoods where the workers toil.
I saw in this story by KPCC's Josie Huang and in this review in the LA Times that Gómez's work is now on display at the Charlie James Gallery in Los Angeles' Chinatown neighborhood. The exhibit, Gómez's first solo show, runs until Feb. 15.
I'm looking forward to going. But I'm guessing the work won't have as much power as when they appear on manicured lawns outside mansions in Beverly Hills or – as on the day when I tagged along on one of Gómez's expeditions – in front of a private Bel Air tennis court.
But most of those cutouts disappear after someone removes them. Gómez has no idea where they end up.
The gallery show is an opportunity to see the images up-close and reflect on them.
The KPCC story has a great photo of Gómez's proud parents, who now live in Highland, embracing their son at the gallery show.
Gómez told me in 2012 that the inspiration of his art has always been his parents, uncles, aunts, cousins and other family members, almost of all of whom live in the Inland Empire and hold service jobs.
"Everything I'm doing is tied to the life I had there," said Gómez, who now lives in West Hollywood. "I see my family when I'm painting. That enables me to sympathize with people here who I don't know."
Gómez's mom, María Elena Gómez, worked for years in factories and is now a janitor at a Highland school. She told me in Spanish that "it makes me emotional that I am an inspiration for him, because it makes me feel I'm in his life."
Some of Gómez's work has been bought by well-off collectors. Gómez told Huang how ironic it is that wealthy people are hanging his art in their homes.
"And at the same time, underpaying their staff," he said. "Even that should somehow seep in because they can't look at my work and not think about themselves and their implication."

Chiefs were overrated24 Nov 13
Chiefs were overrated
Expectations for a team tend to spiral out of control if said team begins the season 9-0.
So, imagine the crash when that team then loses two in a row.
The Chiefs were never as good as their initial play indicated. Kansas City's 41-38 loss to San Diego reinforced that much, showing us all the Chiefs' weaknesses we figured were there even as they got off to that impressive but misleading start.
First, the defense was never quite as good as it seemed. The Chiefs entered the game 12th overall in total defense. They surrendered 41 points and 387 yards to the Chargers. They did so a week after giving up 324 yards and 27 points to Peyton Manning and the Denver Broncos.
This is the 2nd straight week the Chiefs have allowed a season-high in points—
ESPN Stats & Info (@ESPNStatsInfo) November 24, 2013
The Chiefs' situation worsened when the team's dynamic pass-rushing duo of Tamba Hali and Justin Houston was lost during the first half of the game due to injuries. The Chargers and Philip Rivers exploited the Chiefs' lack of a pass rush and Kansas City's inability to cover for an extended period.
Philip Rivers had about 100 yards and no TDs when Justin Houston went out 28 min into game. Ended up at 392 and 3 TDs.—
Sigmund Bloom (@SigmundBloom) November 24, 2013
If Hali and Houston miss much time, the Chiefs' defense will look completely different in the coming weeks.
It's official. Tamba Hali (ankle), Justin Houston (elbow) out for KC. It's down to Frank Zombo and Dezman Moses at OLB—
John Clayton (@ClaytonESPN) November 24, 2013
Ironically, the Chiefs' offense — which usually struggles to manufacture any big plays — scored 38 points. QB Alex Smith had his best game of the season with 292 yards and two touchdown passes. Running back Jamaal Charles had 115 yards on 14 carries.
The problem is the Chiefs don't want to be placed in such a situation on a weekly basis. They came up short against the Chargers when asked to win a shootout. It's likely to happen again if the defense can't get healthy.
The Chiefs now have to prepare for the Broncos a second time in three weeks. The current two-game losing streak could easily extend to three.

Here's a gossipy question for you on this random Wednesday. After you had sex for the first time, who was the first person you told about your experience? Other than your partner, of course!
For me, it was kind of tricky. My first time was during the summer after high school; my BFF and I had got into a huge (and silly) fight that June. After my then boyfriend and I did the deed, I wanted, more than anything, to talk to my best friend about it. But as we were ignoring each other's calls, it didn't work out that way. I kept mum about the whole thing until a few weeks later, right before she moved out of state for college. We met up for dinner, we both apologized and I finally told her. It felt like a weight was lifted off of my shoulders!
What about you ladies? Who was the first person you told about your first time? Your best friend? Your sister? Your mom? Did you tell this person right away? Or did you wait awhile like I did? If you're a virgin, who do you think you'll tell first?
All about the first time
* Do you still talk to the first person you had sex with?
* How old were you when you started having sex?
* What can I do to make our first time a good one?

When a gyroscope (or top) isn't spinning, gravity just pulls down one side and it falls. But when it spins fast,
gravity's force on that side is quickly rotated to other positions before the gyro has a chance to fall. As a
result, the gyro self-corrects, with its axle tending back toward a right angle to gravity.

G A plastic cap attaches the

THE KASHMIR LIMITED:BRENNAN'S GYRO MONORAILOur Gyrocar was inspired by the work of Louis Brennan,the inventor who made a fortune by creating the firstguided torpedo for the British Royal Navy in the 1870s.Brennan spent the rest of his life trying to commercial-ize monorail systems that used huge gyroscopes forbalance. He even built a 24-ton gyro locomotive for theBritish War Office and the Maharaja of Kashmir. Buthis ideas never caught on — neat factor aside, it's notpractical to devote so much weight and energy to gyro-scopes when you can simply balance on 2 rails.
