BFP (yay!)…but now what?!!
- Posted 4 months ago by bluesea10
- last comment
I haven't ever written a post before, but I just got married and we are thinking of starting trying to conceive some time this spring. I'm kind of a planner, so I have a few books about what to do BEFORE you get pregnant. They all suggest things like getting into shape, eating healthy starting three months in advance and going to the doctor for a preconception visit, to see if you have any health issues to take into account, etc. So, I figured, this is how you do it.
But the more I've talked to other people who have children, it kind of seems like nobody actually does that. When I asked my doctor (gynecologist, not an OB) about things to do to get ready to get pregnant, she basically said "take a prenatal vitamin and go off the pill"…though she did give me a pamphlet that mentions having a preconception visit. So that makes me wonder…what do people typically do to get ready?
What did you guys do? Those of you who did a preconception visit–how'd it go? Did your insurance cover it (when I tried to ask my insurance, they thought I was asking about infertility testing…..sigh…I just got that response today in the mail, so clearly I will have to actually call and ask someone in person)?
Also, random aside: I loved looking at ideas on weddingbee and other blog type website during wedding planning, but I'm having trouble finding baby-type sites. Any good ones you guys like?
Well when I got pregnant with my son I was in high school so it wasn't planned but I doubt I would have done anything differently before planning. He turned out perfect and I didn't even know I was pregnant for months. In fact my DH and I might start trying in a year or so and were just going to stop the POM and see what happens naturally. I won't be changing anything else though until I actuallly get pregnant.
My hubby and I recently had a preconception appointment as we are currently ttc. Mine was covered by insurance I believe…just the regular copay. The appointment was fine, I got blood drawn to run a whole bunch of tests to see if I carry any random recessive genes or other diseases and was told to make sure that I take a multi-vitamin and have sex around ovulation. My doc also told me to go get my teeth cleaned and get a flu shot. I also had some other questions answered as I have pcos and don't ovulate/have periods all that often. As for baby blogs/sites, I don't really know of much. I lurk here quite a bit but that's about it.
I asked my OB/GYN at my yearly appointment before we started TTC "what should I be doing now if we want to have a baby in a year or two?". She told me take a prenatal vitamin, take fish oil, and eat plenty of protein. That was it.
I think unless you have a medical condition that may hinder your efforts, there's no reason to have a preconception appointment; it would just be a waste of both your time and the doctor's time.
Last time I was in for a yearly physical I mentioned to my doctor that we might be TTCing in a year or so. She gave me requistions for bloodwork to make sure everything is in order and for an ultrasound to make sure everything is good with my ovaries. We also discussed my weight and my thyroid condition in relation to pregnancy. It was helpful!
Here's a thread with a lot of good advice:
I had a preconception appointment with a midwife (where I get all my well woman care). I had been charting and taking prenatal vits for years.
Thanks everybody, this is super helpful!

ALRIGHT. This article is a pretty good look at one of our newest players. It's got some good info and an overall positive bent about the drafting of this young man from Stanford. It's from about a month ago, but I haven't seen this information written or linked anywhere else and I thought some people here might get something from reading it.
So then, peruse this article at your leisure and feel free to include your favorite part. Mine is quoted here

After DeKalb County Sheriff Thomas Brown announced his plans to start an exploratory committee to consider his chances at challenging Hank Johnson for the 4th District Congressional seat, he spoke candidly about Gov. Nathan Deal removing another elected official in the county.
Tuesday Deal suspended Chief Executive Officer Burrell Ellis. In February he removed six DeKalb County school board members.
"It's a difficult time for DeKalb County. The issues with the CEO's office, the school board issue, all of that is painting DeKalb County in a light that is not a good light," said Brown. "I'm very concerned about our county in that regard."
Ellis said during the suspension, he will devote his time fighting the criminal charges he's facing. He's allegedly tried to force vendors who do business with the county to donate to his campaign.
He's also accused of forcing county employees to work on his campaign during business hours. Those charges are spelled out in a 15-count indictment.
"I think we need to wait and hear the evidence. I know the district attorney is very thorough in his deliberations, but no one should rush to judgment at this point," said Brown. "There is too much going on, there is too much at stake."
Commissioner Lee May is now the county's interim CEO. He will run the county until Ellis' case is resolved or his term is up, whichever happens first. Ellis has three years left in office
"Burrell had a very promising career. I hope that career in politics will continue because I think he is a good public servant. I wish him the best," said Brown. "I hope these charges are not true, but if they are, then the process works as it should be, and we will recover from this and move on."

As I write, the two pieces at the top of the front page are Jesse crabbing about the offense and the lineup, and Jon asking just how bad the bullpen is. That got me to thinking about the choices the front office has made in building this team over the past couple of years. I don't know that I have any overarching conclusions, but I thought it was worthwhile to try to sort through what's happened and where we think we are.
When Bill Smith took over after the 2007 season, there were several issues facing the club. They had just completed a disappointing season that had centered around a weak offense that suffered from a lack of star power (Joe Mauer missed some games and didn't have a great year, Justin Morneau was down some as well) and poor secondary play especially from the bench and such nominal starters as Jeff Cirillo and Nick Punto.
The star-power wasn't such a problem--Mauer and Morneau weren't going anywhere. It was clear that the team had significant holes, however, and it was exacerbated by the impending free agencies of Torii Hunter and Carlos Silva. It was further clear that the team was in the process of deciding the future of the team's best player, Johan Santana. The team desperately needed to upgrade the offense--particularly third base and and left field where a parade of less than mediocrities had played--Nick Punto, Jason Tyner, Jeff Cirillo (nominally the DH, but Jason Kubel was the future there), and second base where they had traded Luis Castillo for reasons that weren't entirely clear and plugged in an overmatched Alexi Casilla. They also obviously needed a centerfielder to replace Hunter on the assumption that he was going to leave.
There was a massive flurry of activity in the off-season following the 2007 season. They (correctly, IMO) let Hunter and Silva both walk. To solve the infield problems, they signed Mike Lamb and Adam Everett, both formerly Astros, both with durability problems, both marginal starters. To sovle the left field/DH hole, they acquired Craig Monroe. Then they made 2 big trades. Recognizing that they needed power and young hitting, they made the Matt Garza/Delmon Young trade. There were people who thought that Young was overrated, but it was generally well recieved. One of the problems was that they also gave up their starting shortstop (Jason Bartlett), who never seemed to get respect from the powers that be. Then they made the big Santana trade, which among other things gave them a center field option to replace Hunter.
OK, the point of this wasn't to review. Here's what I take from this flurry of activity: there was a lot, and there was significant risk taking in one sense (trading away Garza, trading Santana), but ultimately, there was significant risk aversion in terms of money and expectations. They didn't REALLY solve SS or 3B, they stopgapped with guys who, if they failed, well, its not that big a suprise. They didn't REALLY look for a big hitter for DH (Frank Thomas), they got Monroe, who, if he couldn't hit, well, he couldn't hit before. These guys were all cheap, and they all played like it.
On the trade front, they traded 2 guys who they had crabbed about despite their talent--Garza and Bartlett, for the talented but mercurial Young. So far, not good. Young has not gotten better in 2 seasons. He's the same player now that he was a rookie. Then there was the Santana deal. I know this is going to chap some hides, and I know I can't "know" what other offers there were, but this was mishandled, and that isn't just in retrospect. Despite their protestations, it was clear they were going to trade him. The package they got...here's the problem: they got exactly nobody who they could be reasonably close to sure would actually have a significant major league career. Carlos Gomez was talented but hadn't dominated, or even really been very good, in the minors. Philip Humber was hurt and never got his stuff back. Kevin Mulvey was a limited stuff guy, and Deolis Guerra was so freaking young he could have turned into anything. Frankly, a year later, and the exact same things can be said about these guys.
This past off-season, there was much less activity. After a season in which essentially none of the previous seasons' moves actually worked, it appeared that Smith became gunshy. The bullpen had been a problem in 2008; they did nothing to solve it. Wouldn't make a trade, wouldn't give up a pick for Juan Cruz. They further, apparently, misread how shallow the offense was. Bolstered by an unsustainable performance in RISP situations, bailed out by a suprising Denard Span and a dubious Casilla, they scored more runs than they could expect. Starting the offseason by saying they wanted to upgrade both spots on the left side of the infield, they immediately capitulated, resigned Punto and called it a victory. They dithered around with 3B until Joe Crede fell into their laps. They punted doing anything about the outfield crowd of dubiousness. It appeared to be paralysis, made even more frustrating by the fact that their payroll was diminishing and a new stadium was a year away.
Here's my take: they have generally refused spend money. I mean, they signed Joe Nathan...but they wouldn't sign Santana. They signed Michael Cuddyer for 3 years...but let Hunter go (wisely). They also seem unable to surround their core with quality players. They have something of a "good enough" syndrome. The Young trade was their one attempt to add another real hitter...and it hasn't worked. The guys they dredge up...really not good. There are always reasons...but they have refused to either trade prospects or spend money--if you won't do either of those things, it's hard to get better. You can't expect your farm system to pump out above average players at every position year after year--and yet they seem perpetually confused when they have holes that need to be filled.
I'm not giving up on this team--it has things going for it. But I will say that I don't think they have done a good job of identifying and fixing problems in the last couple of years. At some point, Smith has to be responsible for that. I'll add this: one of the things that many fans like about the Twins is the continuity--they promote from within, they keep people, etc. That's a good thing, I agree. But I wonder sometimes if it also doesn't make things stale. When it's the same people with the same philosophies running thngs, you can get stale, miss out on new ideas. Sometimes you need new perspectives from the outside to see what you aren't doing well. I wonder sometimes if the Twins haven't become TOO reliant on the same people doling things the "Twins way."
That was insanely long, and I didn't even really get to a lot of things I wanted to talk about. REally I just thought it might be time to take a look at the front office under Bill Smith.

Poured a gold color with the head modest in size. Massive hop floral spiciness hits your sense first, followed by a sweet malt backing, citrus crisp and fresh, quite clean with the start nicely malted, slightly sweet and the top middling in its feel to the palate. The finish has a fair to middling acidity with as one would expect a "Big" hop bite that lingers on the palate, dry and quite a nice representative to the style, another of the beers I sampled at least three times to get a handle on its flavors.

Served in a pint glass at O'Brien's Pub.
A: 3/4 finger head. Cloudy orangey-yellow with greenish edges. A couple floaty bits in it. Terrific head retention! Really tight foam. Only negative was color.
S: A lactosey creaminess. Dank, marijuana smell, piney as well with notes of candy corn coming through later.
T: Smooth entrance with hops easing their way in. Some cooked veggie/carrot taste was the only negative.
M: Mouth watering opening with bitter hops following, but oh so well balanced!
D: Pretty strong, but delicious!

Picked up a growler from the brewery on 12/11 and Ive been really anxious about trying this beer since I read about it.
Pours a slightly brown orange with about half an inch of foam (I poured it a bit too cold because when I sampled this one at the brewery the head was most impressive). Some spots of lacing here and there.
Sweet malt profile with lots or citrus hops followed closely by the pine notes. Biscuit and toasted bread aroma with some orange jelly like combination. Fresh limes with some grassy overtones. No hints of alcohol at all yet it smells like a big filling beerdefinitely Pure Hoppiness older brother.
The taste is actually pretty well balanced yet there are enough hops to please the hopheads, very well done. The caramel flavors together with the bready malt and the citrus hops blend to perfection. There is enough malt to back up all of the hops. A little more hop bitterness in the finish as the beer begins to warm up, but its all good :o) Mmm, acidic orange and tangerine.
The mouthfeel is a little on the syrupy side but there is enough carbonation to ease the thickness. The aftertaste is slightly bitter with some grass and citrus peel. The alcohol plays hide and seek well in this beer, I cant find you!
Drinkability you say? Im battling a 64oz growler, anyone want to help? For such a high abv it is still quite drinkable and one could easily finish a bomber of this.
I just wish this was available in bottles (seasonal to be realistic) or brewed more often.

On cask at O'Brien's
A- Clear light orange hue, thin lacing of white foam, spotty lacing
S- Bouquet of citrus and pine hops, dark fruits and molasses
T- Taste starts with smooth pine and grapefruit hop wave, transitions to floral, earthy and grassy hops, a nice cascade of hop flavors
M- Medium-bodied, oily resin texture coats mouth, mild carbonation
D- This embodies complexity and layering within a bold DIPA, it is delicious from start to finish, the alcohol is totally masked which is a feat at 10%, this was an absolute joy to have on cask and one of my new faves

4.03/5 rDev -9.4%
On tap at the Stone Bistro. Poured into an 8oz snifter glass. Appearance was a very glowing orange color with great clarity. The smell was pretty pungent hops, but with lots of sweetness as well. Tasted like sweet hop oils. This beer definitely had a lot of sweet malt backing it up giving at a medium and syrupy mouthfeel. Had enough going on in the hop arena to keep me interested as usually double IPA's aren't my favorite if they are sweet and syrupy. Drinkability depends on your taste, I prefer to drink only a limited amount of these types of high alcohol sweet beers but this one was definitely enjoyable.
On tap at O'Brien's and then from a growler at JHamel's house. The smell is very tropical, sweetish. There is a characteristic Alpine sorta thing to this, not completely sure it's totally hop derived either. The taste reminded me somewhat of their Bad Boy DIPA, and not so much of Pure Hoppiness. The body is a touch too syrupy for it to get excellent marks, and it comes across a little more sweet than I prefer too. Drinkability suffers for me because of that overall sweetness. Overall still pretty tasty though.

This beer was poured into an 8 ounce snifter. Beer was poured a slightly orange amber color with a yellowish white head. The head was about a quarter of an inch thick and lasted the entire beer with a better than average amount of lacing. The smell was a very citrus aroma of grapefruit and orange, there were also some hints of a floral hop smell. Not a super strong aroma, but very pleasing.
The taste was a very balanced hop flavor, where each different hop was tasted about the same as the rest. A very smooth double IPA with a lot of hops taste, but not a sharp overall bitterness. The aftertaste was great with just a nice hop flavor and no real super dry bitter flavor. The mouthfeel was good with the CO2 being just a little weak, but a nice thick double IPA worth drinking again.
Wow, a great beer from Alpine, not the easiest beer to find but well worth it if you get a chance to try it. A must if you like Double IPAs.

A glass tasted during Dark Lord Day.
A: The ale is a hazy amber orange color. The travel and open growler have done their number on the carbonation, giving the ale little in the way of head.
S: The nose is a citrusy bitterness, full of grapefruit and pine aromas but not as intense as I expected from a beer called 'Exponential Hoppiness'.
T: The taste does not skimp on the hops, they are bitter with a strong citrusy grapefruit flavor. As the ale sits in the mouth, a huge, intensely bitter hop element quickly emerges, providing astringent grapefruit flavors built on pineapple and pine flavors, creating a thick mouthfeel that burns with hop deliciousness.
M: The mouthfeel begins on an average note and quickly escalates into an all-out hop assault.
D: The 1/2 glass that I had was very enjoyable, full of big hops and quite drinkable even with the hefty abv.

this beer sparkles the color of a dying fire and hot embers. it is so crystal clear, i can see my fingerprints clearly through the glass. the head is thick and peppered with small orbs, the lacing is monstrously sticky and nearly all-encompassing.
big hop aroma, not overly citrusey, but fresh. hints of cherry syrup and maplewood round out an intriguing nose. this is certainly not traditional west coast.. starting to remind me alot of the recently released mojo risin' in its balanced interpretation of the extreme.
now i know where the woody smell comes from. oak chips, as you might have read above. well, the first thing i thought when i drank this beer was "burton baton!".. only mellower and less sweet. like bb used to be. whereas dfh's woody dipa ends with a blast of caramelly sweetness, this beer ends with an even dryness that reeks of hop oils and balances the whole experience nicely. not to mention, the alcohol (10+?) never comes into play or interferes with my quaffing experience.
the only criticism is the mouthfeel/taste of the beer mid-palate. it washes over the tongue, initially, with some abrasiveness. i can only describe this brief sensation as mildly metallic, and a tad minty. it seems to be a lead-up to the last blast of grapefruity hop flavor before the dryness appears in the finish.
overall, an excellent beer.. but as the previous reviewer stated, not in the top tier of double ipa's.

4.43/5 rDev -0.4%
A: An unassuming brash copper with a clean feel. Almost no bubble movement inside the glass, only a few strays. Head is full and fluffy, an attractive antique white.
S: This beer reeks of hops, the aroma jumped out of the growler the moment it the cap came off. The glass holds plethora of sugary pink grapefruit, over ripe tangerine and pine forest floor after a good rain. The smell is overly fragrant but not really aggressive.
T: Begins with a lot of the same qualities as lemon iced tea; almost pungent and herbal on the front of the tongue, bits of apples around the sides and lemon bitterness across the back. An almost cheese like characteristic comes in next, surprisingly attractive for such a poor description on my part. Citrus moves in next with the same buttery grapefruit sense that the Pure Hoppiness possesses. It creeps around the back sides of the tongue and gently lays down a blanket of soothing bitterness. Finishes murky, almost damp and mossy with hints of kiwi and under ripe green grapefruit.
M: Medium body, somewhat hard with just a nip of carbonation sting.
D: Very nice with a curious and unique flavor. Not an overly complex or deep beer but quite enjoyable none the less. Highly recommended to hop heads

Picked up a growler while on business in San Diego. It's time has come...
Beautiful deep gold color. Very clear. Modest, off white head.
Aromas of grapefruit, pineapple, maybe some peach and honey. A little vanilla in there? Delightful!
For a billing of exponential hoppiness, it seems very well balanced. You will not mistake this DIPA for a barleywine, but it is incredibly well put together. Grapefruit and other citrus flavors, probably peach as well. Touch of caramel. A very nice lingering grassy flavor in the finish. Alcohol is present from first sip, but not obnoxious. Pepper also shows up at the finish.
Mouthfeel is medium+ in body. Medium carbonation (growler is a week old, but seems pretty much the same as what I tried fresh at the brewery). Very dry.
Overall, this is a fantastic beer. Just might have unseated Pliny for me, but too close to call. I have some Pure Hoppiness in my cellar, and now I can't wait to try it. The wonderful thing is I have 40 plus more ounces of this to work my way through....

This beer pours an clear looking orangish color with a fluffy white head. The head fades slowle, leaving a decent lacing.
This beer has a very aggressive piney hop aroma. Behind that, I smell some grassy hops. A citrus aroma is also present. Any other aromas are hidden behind the massive hop aroma.
This beer tastes much like it smells. A very aggressive hop flavor. Mostly piney hops. Some citrus hop flavor is also present. I taste grapefruit. The alcohol content is well hidden in the flavor.
This beer is very full bodied, and aggressive. It leaves a very hoppy aftertaste. It is carbonated well.
This beer might not be the best session beer. It is very aggressive, and it is high in alcohol. It tastes great, however, and I think I could drink a lot.
Overall: I love this beer. Everything from Alpine is great, and this is no exception.

Dangerouse beer. Hides 10%+ ABV well behind a wall of rich hop flavor and smooth mouthfeel. Bitterness not as extreme as some Imperial IPA's (Stone Ruination) so very drinkable.
Cask ale really opened up aroma with warmer temp, though offset some by lower carbonation.
Another great Alpine brew.

The aroma was wonderfully pungent. The nose was dominated by an explosive burst of resiny and citrusy hops. A light and sweet maltiness poked through at the end. West coast all the way beeotch!
The flavor of the beer was primarily that of citrusy hops (duh) with enough of a light caramel maltiness to help round things out. As potent (and lovely) as the hops were, they were very smooth. The beer wasn't smackingly sweet. The beer had a very "bright" taste and a nice spiciness that I prefer in DIPAs.
The mouthfeel was crisp and the carbonation seemed dialed in just right. The beer was well attenuated and crisp at 10.5%, it was in no way too heavy and very drinkable. If you're lucky enough to get a pint before it's gone, go back for as many as you can.
With so many amazing DIPAs coming out of San Diego, it's no wonder this city (area) continues to define the style that was essentially pioneered there. Many are starting to call double IPAs "San Diego Pale Ale." They've earned it.

Appearance This came out of the OBriens tap a beautiful, inviting bright orange in color with little head on a bad pour. Well, not really a bad pour, just the barmaid trying to give me as much of this sweet goodness as she could.
Smell The hops aroma here is like some sort of hop extract. It is so stiff and so strong. It has to be the strongest hop smell out of any beer that Ive head. Theres some malt in the nose for the diligent drinker.
Taste The malts come on much better at the taste, but of course its the hop flavor that carries the day. I expected to just find a wallop of pine resin, but along with that the brewer managed to pack some good floral hops in there as well.
Mouthfeel This is medium-bodied with a literal hop shock to the tongue. Paramedics should keep some of this stuff in the ambulance in case CPR and those electrical pads fail to resuscitate a patient.
Drinkability This is a slow-drinking, super-bitter ale that has some of the strongest hop flavors money can buy. If you ever have a chance to sample this and pass it up the Bros should ban you for life.
Update I also had the privilege of sampling a barrel-aged batch on the same night. It had a huge oak compliment to the hops and seemed more alcoholic. It actually made the beer a slightly better drinker. Excellent stuff!

Pours a hazy golden amber color with a bright white head that leaves trails of sticky lace on the sides of the glass as you drink. Piney hops dominate the nose, but there are also aromas of fresh grapefruit, pineapple, and pear. The taste begins with some sweet fruity malt, but this is short lived before the piney hop oils take over with a strong and peppery bitterness. Despite the high ABV, this was quite smooth and drinkable.

On tap at Liar's club in SD, CA. Arrived light amber, quite clear with a near white head, and showing off wildly scaered lacing. Nose here was very fruity, mangoes!. The intense hop crunch is the signature of this brew, does the term "S.D. style DIPA" mean anything to you? Oily, peppery, more fruit, mango, grapefruit galore. 11% well hidden in this dangerous, tasty, hop bomb.

Pumped from an 11gal. firkin, this special cask-conditioned "Triple IPA" is pumped too the max with hops. Strong, hopped beyond belief and very drinkable, it doesn't get much better than this !
Served in a pint glass, a glowing amber-gold ale with a sticky white foam head just over a 1/4 inch thick. Tons of sticky resinous lace mark the journey as you drink.
Hops up front, hops out back...hops throughout this one. Very piney hop nose with a sweet grapefruit citric note underneath. Hop Bomb, coming right up!
The taste is short lived sweet malt turning almost intantly citrus, mainly of grapefruit, then zapped with sharp pine-cones with a bite. And they keep biting till you swallow this golden, hoppy elixer.
A BIG 2XIPA with a ton of un-detectable alcohol and a body as large as the name...this one delivers over the top, yet o'so drinkable HOP bomb too please any true hophead. It's got to be the cask-conditioning that makes it so paletable...it goes down a little too easy. If you get the chance, don't miss this exceptionally (exponential) hoppy one !

Appearance: Arrives at the table with a hazy medium amber body and a white head that leaves lots of lace
Smell: Sweet grapefruit and spearmint aromas
Taste: Fruity and malty flavors kick off the tastebuds followed by extraordinary but but sweet citrusy hop flavors
Mouthfeel: Medium bodied with moderate carbonation
Drinkability: Amazing that a beer this bitter and hoppy could also have such a sweet and drinkable character
Note: I had the Dec 2009 bottled version and was surprised at how different that beer tasted from my memory when I had it on tap in 2006. I didn't recall the woody and fusel alcohol character that the bottled version has at all and, I have to say that I was somewhat disappointed in it. The bottled version was decent but far from what I had anticipated.

I'll put it this way- the only other beer I have given a 5 rating to is Pure Hoppiness. This is Pure Hoppiness on a grander scale, with more hops, more gravity, more everything! The abundance of hop oil makes it the smoothest (and stickiest!) 10% brew I have ever tasted. The piney scent of Pure Hoppiness is muted a bit by the higher gravity, but damned if I don't care as this I take a sip. My only complaint is that this isn't available year round, although that's an extremely dangerous proposition. As with Pure Hoppiness, if this comes your way, absolutely positively grab as much as you can!

Had this at the brewery on 2/4/06 during my recent trip to CA and brought a growler home to the east coast. Strong hop character in the nose and taste. Very citrusy, hop aroma with enough malt to balance. Alcohol content at least 9+ but was not overwhelming. Drinkable, but recommended for hopheads.

Grabbed a couple pints at Obrien's.
Nice deep copper color with bright yellow highlights. Quite a nice foamy head, the keg had just been tapped. Nice carbonation.
Very nice malt flavor, followed by hops, hops, and more hops! Very citrusy and bitter. Captured the flavor of the hops at every stage.
This one was really very good. One of the hoppiest beers I've ever tasted but still very balanced and very drinkable. It's pretty dangerous considering the ABV.

Poured a hazy, deep copper color with a small, thin, off white head that left a decent amount of lacing on the glass. Aromas of orange, tangerine, apricots, floral and grassy hops, really nice. Well balanced taste, loads of piney and citrusy hops, nice bitterness, sweet chewy malts. Damn, I really liked this, thanks cquiroga!!

Had this on tap at O'Brien's on one of my San Diego swings. This is a real winner, and a hop head's wet dream, although contrary to other reviews, I did not think this was as hoppy as its sister, Pure Hopiness. Or maybe it's just a different kind of hoppiness. No matter, it's equally as good.
It's pretty heavy on the herbal hops flavors, with that distinct hemp aroma, very grassy, but I didn't detect much of a citrus-pine hop profile in the nose (a bit of orange perhaps). But make no mistake, this is all about the hops. There is a freshly pulped pine tree in the flavor, as well as some bitter orange and grapefruit rind. The malt is barely perceptible, and there is an interesting dryness to the beer that reminds me of fresh-cut hay.
I could drink this all day (except I'd then be on the floor), and I am not a raging hop head...

A great beer that I had on tap at O'Briens this weekend. The beer was a medium goldish color with a nice head that laced down the glass quite well. The smell was great for a hophead like me. Smelt of fresh hops and not much else, very piney. The taste followed suit with a very full bodied hop flavor that was not too dry but more woody and pine like. Add to the mix a very nice mouthfeel and no hint of the high abv and you have yourself one dangerous beer! Consume with caution!

Sampled fresh on tap at O'Briens in San Diego in a pint glass.
After having their Pure Hoppiness, I had to get exponential. How do they make some much hop bitterness so tasty?
This beer pours a tannish orange color. The pint didn't leave much room for the head.
The aroma is not as strong as I expected given the hype. Strong grassiness.
Somehow they infuse this beer with tremendous hop flavor and a bitterness that is deep but not harsh. It turns your tongue with multiple flavors -- starts grapefruity but changes beautifully to something I can't place -- but then it lets go. A surge of malt comes about 5 seconds into the gulp. It cleans up the bitterness and you're instantly ready for the next gulp. Smooth. I hear they use oak but I was not overwhelmed by any vanilla flavors.
This beer is dense. It took me a lifetime to finish the pint while my buddies lapped me. Full bodied. Alcohol masked a bit too well.
Halfway through my point, my tastebuds began to fatigue. I think the Pure Hoppiness was more in my hop-stamina range. Excellent brew though
I think I remember the brewmaster Pat talking about fussing with the amount of oak for his next batch. In any case, I had this at the Liars Club. Seemed to be much paler this time. A nice copper color. The hop aroma was good but not as good as for the Pure Hoppiness. The hop flavor and bitterness are toned down, but still more intense than the PH. Still a great beer, but the differences between this and the PH are shrinking.

It's very interesting watching someone use an RSS Aggregator for the first time. Maryam finally got interested in it after hearing me talk for the past three years about how much more productive it is to read people's blogs in a news aggregator.
She just frustrated me asking "how come I can't find a feed on Anita Rowland's blog?" I answered back "if your feed reader was decent it should just tell you that there's a feed there."
But, personally, I hate blogs that don't have an orange icon to explain they have a feed. Here are the two icons you should have on your page if you have a feed (choose one — I like the "old-school" XML icon, but that's just me — the trick is to have at least ONE of these on your page so that visually your readers will know instantly that you have an RSS or Atom feed to subscribe to):
The BBC goes with an "RSS" orange icon, which is OK with me, since it's still simple to figure out. I LOVE how they handle the icon (far better than how I do it on my blog). They put a "What is RSS?" link next to the icon. I should do that here.
Anyway, Maryam finally whined enough to get me to pull up Anita's blog in both IE and Firefox, looking for a freaking feed. NewsGator and Attensa can't find one. I can't find one.
Blogs without RSS feeds piss me off. But now I remember why I don't read Anita anymore even though everytime I'm at her blog I like what she writes about.
Non-English bloggers have another problem: they might have a feed but their feed might break RSS News Aggregators. For instance, this Persian blogger's feed breaks Apple's Safari, which is how Maryam is trying to subscribe to various feeds.
If you don't make your RSS feed easy to find and use, you're losing readers.
Oh, and please do subscribe to my feed.

A Milwaukee woman who showed up at a Brookfield church Sunday toting a loaded Glock 9mm handgun told parishioners she was doing so to make a point.
But members of the Unitarian Universalist Church West made a point of their own when they called police on the woman, who was arrested after driving away with the gun on the passenger seat of her vehicle.
According to Brookfield police:
The incident happened during the 9:15 a.m. service at the church, 13001 W. North Ave., when the 41-year-old woman arrived carrying the gun on her hip and kept it there throughout the service.
After the service, parishioners asked the woman why she had brought the gun. She replied, "To make a point."
The woman then placed the gun in a zippered case and put it on the front seat of her vehicle. She started to drive away, but was stopped by officers who had been called by church members.
She was arrested for transporting a loaded weapon.
After this article was published in Brookfield NOW and on BrookfieldNOW.com, the woman called NOW and said she never said the quote attributed to her in the police report. She declined to comment further.

appearance: Beautiful color a rich brown that just screams BEER!!
smell: Oh so sweet almost candy like a bit over powering, knocks it down significantly
taste: Bit on the sweet side but I cannot complain too much. A caramel taste that really says something nice about the beer overall
mouthfeel: A bit sticky but not so much as to bring the brew down too far. A bit too stout for my pallet personally
overall: Not a bad brew however it taste like a desert not necessarily a bar beer

A German barley ala stem brewed beer...interesting.Poured into a becker a a clear copper color with a nicely formed fluffy one finger slight off white head that settles into a thick frothy mass.Wow alot of fruit and heavy caramel in the nose,it's very altbier-like but amped up a little.Alot of caramel and fruit up front on the palate but it dries out nicely about midway thru and into the finish.Not what I was expecting but honestly I didn't know what to expect,I really liked it.

Poured from the bottle into a stange glass.
A cloudy amber dark brown hinting mahogany body hinting, gives a simple white head with a little bit of staying power. Some good retention and managing to keep things sticking around.
Nose is quite grainy, but also with a big yeast punch. Fairly clean, sense of real light body character. Very faint light toasty grains and malt. Nothing that makes me get excited but nothing offensive either.
A sweet malt richness hints on first sip, but then the palate weakens. Finish however brings some of the wet body a little better, as the grain malty action grows with some dry sweetness. Large on a barley drying angle.
This is an interesting style that I've never had before, but it unfortunately in the realm of everything I've had doesn't seem to grab me. It's certainly an enjoyable beer though.

A clear amber brown beer with a thin head.
Smell is flowery and a little tart. It reminds me a little of a Flemish Ale sourness. Lactic acid? Not sure, but it smells odd. Also a decoction, Maillard kind of maltiness.
Taste is little malty with decoction notes. A little nutty. The initial tartness is hidden away in the background. Like paterlodie says, this must be sauermalz. It certainly is not the infectious kind of tartness. The beer has been fermented pretty clean and besides the odd sourness this beer is a straight forward German beer. It finishes of a bit dry and has a short aftertaste.

500ml flip-top bottle. Mindestens haltbar bis: 21.12.11.
It is always fun when you discover a new style of bier. This one happens to be one of the rarest of them all. And this brewery claims some fame from it.
It pours a beautiful color. Not the same as an oktoberfest but a very orangey brown with a nice off-white head that leaves some speckles of lacing.
The smell is for sure maltier than a helles, but not as roasty as a dunkel. It shares a nuttiness with Oktoberfest but it isn't the same. It is more of a sweet fruit aroma as the yeast impacts this beer greater than an average lager.
The flavor is deep. It has a mild tartness that lends itself to almost a cooked pizza crust flavor. There is of course some nuttiness and a noticeable fruitiness. It is definitely unique.
It is a nice beer, nothing amazing, but something different.

Woww this is certainly one of the strangest german top fermenting beers I've ever drank. Most certainly not an altbier but closest to what this one is. Poors in fine with average head and nice brown color with orange shine in it and totaly clear. Nose is strange; sweet, grainy, and creamy nose. Grassy, sour and a smell I recal from germinating malts( Sauermalt?). Anyway something else as the regular and a nice one for a change!
Taste is strange too; very malty and sweet, little ironlike, little sour and caramellic. Takes a long time before aftertaste starts and is only litle bitter. Mouthfeel is eating and drinking at the same time plus all tasting pupils lighting up so as complex as can be but good.
Drinkability is good; loved to drink this one but it's strageness makes it only enjoyable every now and then. Good beer though and in my eyes realy a must taste when available and never tried before!

Comes with a ceramic swing cap
A - The color of this beer will fool you. It looks pretty dark but don't let it diseave you!!
S -Barley takes over the nose but it'svery nuetral.
T - Some malts nothing overpowering. Leaves anice after taste in your mouth making you want to keep sipping on this beer
M - Depends on who opens this beer for you....With these ceramic swing caps if the bartender opens it too quickly it will taste different and you might lose most of your beer to the counter....but if opened properly it fills out nicely.
O - I highly reccommend it

Half litre flip-top bottle, poured into pint glass. Amber colour, hazy, large foamy off white head. Retention was outstanding. Aroma was cranberry, malt and dark chocolate, really had to think of a Dubbel or Doppelbock. Tasted cranberry, malt, dark chocolate and molasses. Only drawback was that it was slightly watery. Hints of slightly smokey malt in the finish. Smooth texture, decent carbonation, slightly heavy body but it worked. Only the fact that it was slightly watery held it back from being truly outstanding.

Loose fast-fading white head over a pale amber body. Gooey golden syrup nose with a whiff of acetone.
Apricot preserves, banana esters and a touch of herbal hops.
Cloying finish. Chewy, light to medium and round.
"Altbier" is not exactly right; dampfbier is more traditional German farmhouse ale.
Rough and ready. This one may be past its best, but it is smooth and overall drinkable. However, it's still only playing like high end homebrew which, given the style's roots, is about right.

The owner of the bar said he had some brand new steamed beer that I just had to try.
First thing you notice is the brownish amber color. Did not pour too thick nor too thin.
The smell was a delightful kick in the face. It was like a sweet malty smell. Almost roasty one could say.
The taste was just great. Just the right thickness. Little bit of an aftertaste but nothing undesirable.
I was thoroughly impressed with the beer. I always enjoy trying new drinks and this was definitely a pleasant experience.

Dampfbier, labeled as being a steam beer, barley ale from Bavaria, pours a copper color with a thick white head from a brown half liter flip top bottle. The aroma is kind of sweet with a touch of spicy hop. The flavor is also kind of sweet with a caramel flavor which hits after some spicy hops. This beer is somewhat light bodied and goes down easily. Interesting, I see it's classified as an altbier, I'm not sure what it is, but it's decent.

Pours a big head of fluffy foam. Colour is a nice coppery, medium/dark brown. Nice film and lacing.
Aroma has a nice thick boozy maltiness. A bit of a banana note with the fruitiness. Altogether quite pleasant and balanced.
Taste has some initial malt with a defined crisp fruity edge. Mild sourness. Comes in with a bit more acidity later. Predominated by thick roasty malts, and some apples. Fairly straightforward, and started pretty bland, but developed more character gradually.
Mouthfeel is okay, a bit on the thin side. Carbonation is pretty light, drinkability is pretty okay.
Definitely different. Good example, this beer is fine, but not enticing enough to really go buy more. Refreshing and crisp but taste is a bit bland and straightforward. Light in body with a good roast malt profile. Good experience.

MESSAGE FROM THE EDITOR: The Election is Over. Now What?Posted November 07, 2012
The campaigns are finally over. President Obama has been re-elected, and we have new Representatives and Senators in Congress. As humanists, what does the next four years hold for us? Already, the American Humanist Association is taking action by encouraging our newly elected Representatives to not join the Congressional Prayer Caucus—a group that's behind many legislative bills that reinforce "Christian nation" claims and the importance of religion, particularly Christianity, in the United States. Our lobbying team will continue to put pressure on President Obama to end federal funding to religious organizations that discriminate based on hiring. And we'll continue to represent you and your humanist values.
I'd also like to take this opportunity to recognize Rep. Pete Stark, our humanist friend in Congress who lost a tough race in California last night. Rep. Stark has been a strong ally for church-state separation, and we thank him for all he has done to help bring secular issues to the forefront.
I encourage you to support our work on Capitol Hill by becoming a member of the American Humanist Association and receive our Action Alerts so you can help make a difference. Cheers to the next four years of progress.

My First Click Bank Payday – And A Valuable Lesson Learned
I have been working hard since the beginning of the year to really build my online business. After all, there is a lot to learn and it can get a bit overwhelming at times.
I have several projects going on and I really have not had much, if any, success with them so far.
Well, I checked my Clickbank account recently, and guess what??
I made enough money and met the criteria to receive my first PAY DAY from Clickbank!!
I'm super excited!! It's not very much money, but to me, it represents overcoming an obstacle that I've been stuck behind for too long…
Here's a screen shot… I want to show off my first check…
If you're not sure what Clickbank is, check them out at clickbank.com. They are basically an affiliate promotion site where people who have products and services go to find others to promote them and are willing to pay out up to a 75% commission. I use Clickbank as an affiliate and promote products for commissions. Clickbank is 100% free to join.
Affiliate marketing is one great way to make money online with minimal investment of time or money.
I have often heard people say how lazy they are and yet they managed to make $10,000 a month online only working 5 hours a week.
That's all great, and I AM LAZY!
AND… I have worked MORE than 5 hours a week!!
AND… I have just made my first $144 paycheck!!
SO… HOW do you make so much money online only working 5 hours a week?!?!
THE ANSWER…. Either, they have the money to outsource everything, meaning that they can pay someone to write their content, build their backlinks, etc…
OR… they have the training and knowledge required to know exactly what to do
OR… they have a personal coach…
I have had NONE of those…. HOW about YOU?!
HOWEVER… If you do stick to ONE project and learn as much about it as you can as you go, you can make money online with it… probably faster than I did since I am guilty of not finishing what I start.
SOON ENOUGH… You may be able to say that you can work only 5-10 hours a week and make a full time income.
BUT… That is a goal to set for yourself that can be attained as you grow your business and learn about online business.
What I have learned about making money online with affiliate marketing
This is the first step… the accomplishment of my first goal…. to make my first $100 online…. next goal… my first $1,000
So, Now that I have finally made my first paycheck… obviously not enough to quit my day job… BUT, enough to give me the motivation to know that I CAN DO IT… and enough to make my wife have some faith that what I have been working and telling her so much about will actually pay off….
What I have learned about making money online is that it takes dedication!
It takes focus!
You have to finish what you start!
I got wrapped up in so many different "make money online" strategies, that whenever I started a project and didn't see instant results, I quickly got distracted by something else and started a new project thinking I would go back to the previous one later.
Whatever you do…. DON'T do that!
You can easily waste 2 years doing nothing and making nothing!
As my momma always told me…
Finish what you start!
It sounds simple enough… and it can be…. but I do understand that there are sooooo many people telling you that THIS IS THE BEST WAY TO MAKE MONEY ONLINE.
Once you realize that there are literally thousands of ways to make money online, you will soon see that you can take full advantage many of them, BUT…. you must start with one.
I started 2012 with the mindset that I was going to succeed, that I was going to make money online and build my business.
Here are some of the Internet Marketing resources I have used so far this year:
Dot Com Secrets X – Free 30 Day training – One on one daily video training
Wealthy Affiliate – Free 10 Day training starting May 1st – Daily video training, Forum, and Internet marketing community
So, have you made your first $100 online? $1,000? I'd love to hear about it…
Are you stuck? Not sure where to start? Leave a comment and I'll point you in the right direction.
Best of luck to you,
~Jeremy Ruggles

My goal is to create a community of like minded internet marketers new and experienced that we may help each other succeed. Join the conversation by commenting below and join us! I'm Jeremy Ruggles and I am here to succeed online and take as many people with me as possible along the way.

Modern Meaning and Definition in Wikipedia
Modernism was a cultural movement in the first part of the 20th century. It occurred in art, literature, music, architecture and drama.
Modernism is marked by a rejection of tradition, and an interest in new ways of doing old things. Also, there was a belief that the application of science and technology could change the world for the better. The changes began in the late 19th century and carried on until about 1950. The details differ greatly, and the term covers some movements which are somewhat contradictory.
Art is where people can find Modernism. Modern art is what replaced classical art. It included Abstract art, Cubism, Pop art, Minimalism, and Dadaism. It affected sculpture quite strongly, though at the beginning sculptors like Rodin and Epstein made both traditional and modernist works. Henry Moore is one of the most famous modernist sculptors.[See more about Modern at Dictionary 3.0 Encyclopedia]

text: As a long time Van Halen fan, I found myself ignoring David Lee Roth after the "Eat 'em and Smile" album. Recently, I happened on a copy of "A Little Ain't Enough" and found it a lot closer to the the Van Halen of yore than the VH III debacle. I found myself catching up on all of the releases since "eat 'em" and realizing that the man has continued to make some great straight forward rock through out the years. I had made myself a burn of what I considered to be some of the best of David Lee just prior to the release of this disk and was more aligned with the song selection than I typically am with "Best Of's". Like always, there are great songs that are left out and some that should have been, but if you're looking for a good career overview this might be a good place to start!! Or if you've ignored David since VH like I have, this collection might make you realize what you've been missing.
