This is How Magic Lantern Has Made Such Amazing Progress with Canon DSLRs
The recent developments with the Canon DSLR hack known as Magic Lantern have been downright astonishing. At one time these DSLRs were just decent H.264 video/still hybrid cameras, and now they've become RAW video monsters with an unbelievable increase in detail and clarity. While the Canon 5D Mark III is the only one capable of taking full 1080p advantage of these advancements, it's likely every Canon DSLR will be able to shoot RAW video down the line. But how did we get to this point so fast? Was it some sort of Canon conspiracy? Check out the video below to get a better sense of the insane amount of work it's taken to get to where we are now.
A1ex from the main Magic Lantern development team put this visualization together:
It's clear from the video that these developments were not by accident. This has taken a lot of work from a lot of dedicated people working for free in their off hours in order to experiment and squeeze every last ounce of potential out of these cameras. Those thinking this has been some sort of conspiracy on Canon's part can take a look at the video above and see the exponential increase in development over the last 6 months. Just as with anything, developments can be slow in the beginning, but as things get going, they can really take off.
We should all be very thankful for those working behind the scenes on the Magic Lantern firmware, giving us free upgrades and making our cameras better than we ever thought possible.
We're all here for the same reason: to better ourselves as writers, directors, cinematographers, producers, photographers... whatever our creative pursuit. Criticism is valuable as long as it is constructive, but personal attacks are grounds for deletion; you don't have to agree with us to learn something. We're all here to help each other, so thank you for adding to the conversation!

So, um… forgive my ignorance, but I have no idea what I just watched. What are all the lines and nodes supposed to represent? Obviously some of them are labeled, but I'm kind of lost on the rest of them.
Paul on 06.18.13 @ 4:22PM
Don't worry, you are not the only one. At first I even thought it was not related.
Robert Thorpe on 06.18.13 @ 4:31PM
It's a data visualization silly!
The nodes represents branches of development work, lines that appear and disappear between users/participants indicate key moments of communication and collaboration.
The growing complexity of branched code is represented through the tree-like growth.
As the base code is optimized and "finalized" it's development is less frenetic and more stable. It's is literally visualized as more stable as a result., While new branches of code are sprung from the core functionality.
Use your imagination and connect the dots. It's much more fun than the question you asked.
Brian on 06.18.13 @ 4:51PM
"Use your imagination and connect the dots. It's much more fun than the question you asked."
Gee, thanks. Your previous explanation was probably enough.
kuban on 06.18.13 @ 8:03PM
I second that, shame people are not bothering to figure things out, the magic lantern group has done wonders really and handed it to the masses free, it would have been nice if the sarcastic and silly kept is somewhere else.
steve on 06.18.13 @ 4:36PM
The bunches of nodes are the different forum threads on the magic lantern site. The nodes are comments, and the little people are users commenting.
Rodrigo Molinsky on 06.19.13 @ 10:56AM
No, it not related to the forum. The title clearly says it's a commit history, so is the "timeline" of codes commited by developers to the code repository. Each "tree" is a different branch (as a version) of the code to develop specific features.
But I agree with the original question. A video (just like a institutional one) showing the firmware features history would be more… elucidative.
shaun wilson on 06.19.13 @ 5:12AM
What's not to get? Its perfectly clear what the data visualisation is saying. Are we all that simple that we cant work it out? Great video…
john jeffries on 06.18.13 @ 4:15PM
I used to rock magic lantern on a 550D a while back, and it was "stable" but I'd never trust it on a paid/professional project. And it doesn't really inspire confidence on set when you tell them you have a hacked camera. It's great for hobby projects and stuff though. I've heard of producers choosing RAW hacked 5D's over reds, to save money. That's a great way to lose your job loooool
Reinis on 06.18.13 @ 5:07PM
I guess, then you just didn't explore it enough. It has turned my 550d into a professional video camera by giving the features that were not there, but were very needed. My professional video work would be impossible without Magic Lantern. Or at least much more complicated. I've been using ML for 2,5 years, and I can't remember one single time it has let me down.
And talking about using a "hacked" camera professionaly – isn't that the way the technology is advancing? It should be a plus for people, who know how to use it, not like – are they crazy?
Now, for example, if I would ever need a cameraman to shoot something for me on a Canon dslr, if I saw, that he's not using ML, I would get worried about his skills. Because one thing is to know, how to compose a shot, how to light it, etc, but another thing is to know, how to squeeze every last bit out of the camera you have, and that's exactly what ML is helping us to do. To be good, you have to know, how to do it all, right?
john jeffries on 06.18.13 @ 5:30PM
I would care more about what the end product looks like and not what they are using. Although I am about to sell my 5D 2 kit and just rent higher end cameras from now on. DSLR's limit me too much, I'm switching from owner operator to the rental-based-on-what-your-project-needs route. I think 1300 dollars towards a short film is way better than a line-skipping, faux 1080p 1300 dollar camera body sitting in a pelican and not being used every day
vinceGortho on 06.18.13 @ 7:13PM
Using magic lantern is a skill????
Pffft! I would call it a technical bonus.
Plenty of professional work will survive without it.
Dude, for a professional to say that if someone wasn't using ML, you would be worried about his/her skills! Thats's not a very professional attitude haha!
I no a bunch of people who use ML and claim all this techy stuff, but can't shoot to save their life! 10 times out of 10, I'm looking at the persons previous work, attitude, collaboration skills and initiative…
Reinis on 06.19.13 @ 1:37AM
Ok, maybe I exaggerated a bit. Of course that the thing that means the most are the previous works. Looks like ML has given me so much, that I feel I have to defend it, whenever someone underestimates it :D
Tyler on 06.19.13 @ 9:57PM
I know what you mean. If I am doing a project using ML then any parallel cameras need Magic Lantern for continuity's sake.
And lol to the people who say ML isn't an important thing – crop marks don't come with the default firmware. I guess the people you hire would duct tape their screens?
Chris Lambert on 06.18.13 @ 5:08PM
If you've never run into a problem with it though and never heard of anyone running into a problem with it does it then make it ok? I trust it but then I use my 550d as a backup/B cam
Do we know each other from somewhere your name is familiar :)
john jeffries on 06.18.13 @ 5:32PM
your name is familiar too. are you on reduser ever?
Nick on 06.18.13 @ 7:27PM
No. He played Rayden in Mortal Kombat.
Kraig on 06.19.13 @ 11:14AM
Rodrigo Molinsky on 06.19.13 @ 12:26PM
Thought he was a Highlander, but LOL!
Chris Lambert on 06.19.13 @ 7:07PM
don't make me start chopping off heads
I had my little ML 550 on set (because I always have it with me) and I can't tell you how many times the DP asked me if he could use the false colors and vector scope to double check his lighting setup even though he had a light meter. It was especially helpful on the green screen if you match the aperture too. He didn't shoot with it (because they had a whole fleet of 5D's) but ML was a tool he could not stop asking about. I did a timelapse of the shoot one day again using magic lantern and it is on his demo reel to show how he runs a set. Just little tools that make the job easier. Magic lantern has never let me down :D.
shaun wilson on 06.19.13 @ 5:14AM
Same here, I made a feature on a 550D (and ZF lenses) and I couldn't be happier with the result.
I've joined the rental to suit job niche as well. I still have my 7d though and use it for at least a shot or two on every Red Epic job. One thing though, I'd say the Epic is less reliable than my 7d with "hacked" magic lantern. On one two week Epic shoot we missed a shot on our A camera because it couldn't write to the card and on the same shoot we had an error and the B camera shutdown during a shot. I've never had issues with ML though I have had a couple of issues with my 7d corrupting clips before I ever even loaded ML. Basically, what I'm saying is all gear has issues and nothing is 100%.
i'm pretty grateful to these guys — but can anyone answer the Big Question.
any idea when they hope to have a stable and/or beta release to turn on the world ?
i sniff around different forums and blogs on a daily basis trying to get some forecast — but nothing.
anyone ?
also … i think i recognize yanobox nodes. i bought it a few years ago … and i could never figure out what to do with it, either.
5d3 user on 06.18.13 @ 4:27PM
thank you all so much for your work. Even without the raw developments, you guys have been amazing.
Ozrallis on 06.18.13 @ 4:29PM
Yeah big up ML
Out of curiosity , the 700d now records raw , could someone please explain if that is in 1080p 24fps and how long for ????
If that's the casein going out to buy one !
Newbie so please be gentle as I am a delicate man lol
Brian on 06.18.13 @ 4:43PM
See this graphic from a previous NFS article:
Looks like the 700D can do a max resolution of 1280×560 at 24fps. So, a long ways off 1080p.
vinceGortho on 06.18.13 @ 5:10PM
Nikon needs a qualified hacker!
C'mon magic lantern. Just try the d800.
vinceGortho on 06.18.13 @ 5:37PM
Oh well, hopefully bmc4k will release and it wont matter anymore.
I didn't think I'd be able to afford to shoot in raw while in school…but…
Hey Joe I have a question for you. I own a Red epic, but am looking for a second cam either a 4k black magic or a 5d mark3. With all these crazy magic lantern upgrades the 5d is looking pretty amazing and the low light factor is also huge. I guess my question is when is 1080p going to be the standard def of today? with 4k TV's coming out and 6k and eventually 8k cameras… when is 1080 going to be dead? when are we going to start exporting 2k and 4k files?
Thanks Joe
marklondon on 06.18.13 @ 7:36PM
A question being asked by almost everyone these days. I'd love to read Joe's take on it as long as he picks a number. :-)
My 25 cents – unless the BMDCC 4K is a total bust (for some reason we have yet to see) go with that.
While we will be happily delivering primarily in 1080 for at least the next 36 months after that you might be struggling to justify it. By the way we still deliver 15% of what we do at our company in SD. Doesn't mean we shoot in it!
Anthony Marino on 06.18.13 @ 11:30PM
What caught my attention with the whole BM release, I wondered how good these cameras are in 1080p (down res mode)? How good can they really make 1080p look? The truth is with an exception to the c100/c300 and F3, most of these other higher resolution sensor cameras aren't making astonishing looking 1080p in my opinion. Even my "4k" ready camera is arguably better than it's $4,000.00 cheaper little brother. How much better does the footage have to be to justify the cost? I'm really hoping BM is the one. They can definitely set some standards if that's the case. (hopefully saying goodbye to 8bit and 10bit being the new minimum for starters :) Just a bit more I guess and we'll see, thanks
36 months would be very nice.
Joe Marine on 06.18.13 @ 8:14PM
I really don't think anyone can answer that, just like no one could have predicted a few years ago that we'd have a 4K camera for so cheap. I mentioned in an NAB video last year I think you'll only be able to get 4K screens by 2017, but it's impossible to know. What we do know is that acquisition is moving much, much faster than display/distribution, which wasn't always the case.
Do you meant like mass market televisions at a 4 k standard by 2017 or just starting to surface? I know that Toshibo is coming out with a 4k TV and although I haven't been their I hear they are all over Dubai and parts of the middle east. For me it seems like this rapid growth of high res cameras is going to continue to grow exponentially. 2k will probably get skipped right into a 4k standard. When 1080i and 720p came out around 2006, on a some what mass market, you had to be crazy to buy a standard def camera because although they were cheaper, standard def was on the verge of being dead. I think 1080p is on the verge of being dead as well… and although the mark3 is a badass low light camera capable of shooting raw and unlocking all sorts of magic, its still tough to go under 2k.
David L. on 06.18.13 @ 7:33PM
I'd love to hear from folks who use this on paid jobs. I rent cameras on a per project basis (and use a pair of 7Ds for nickel and dime work). The raw hack got me pumped, so I tried it out last time I borrowed a 5D3.
Maybe it's just something you get used to, but the prep work to even get files into my NLE was a little crazy. I can't imagine that much extra work on a music video or corporate work with lots of B-roll.
Is it just one of those things you get really efficient at? It felt prohibitive in the professional realm, just for the added time. I guess I got used to the Red workflow, but even that didn't feel nearly as cumbersome.
marklondon on 06.18.13 @ 7:40PM
We have yet to be brave enough to use it within 100 yards of a paid job. We had a similar experience to you, and have essentially shelved it until there's a stable version. It looks great when you get it going, but not worth the risk in such a hyper competitive market.
The workflow is getting easier all the time. You need a couple of really fast cf cards and a fast computer. Then use RAWMagic to convert .RAW to CDNG (very fast) and use Resolve.
Check out the fantastic raw videos on the web coming from the 5DMK III.
ML raw is still at an early stage. But if you want live histogram, waveform, audio levels on 550D etc., there's just no way to get them without magic lantern. I've been using it on professional shoots for years and it hasn't let me down. I'm extremely grateful to all the developers for unlocking my camera's potential.
drflower on 06.19.13 @ 9:45PM
I've been using the 5D Mark III with RAW for the last week and a half for broadcast work, but only as a b camera. I try not to shoot more than 4 to 6 minutes of footage a day, otherwise it becomes a little difficult to work with in post when on tight deadlines. While 4 to 6 minutes isn't much, it forces me to be even more careful when planning my shots which increases my efficiency
Currently I use ACR through After Effects, I found it easier to just dump all the footage in one composition, sometimes I have to dig through the footage on Bridge when the first frame that AE shows isn't enough to make the adjustments that are needed. I then export the composition to DNxHD in the background in Media Encoder so I can work in AE on other projects. It usually takes an hour to an hour and a half to create the DNxHD, but usually I plan my lunch break around that time.
Overall I'm happy with it and haven't experienced any glitches yet. I look forward to the improved workflows, but for now it's a great way to sharpen my skills.
Anthony Marino on 06.18.13 @ 8:10PM
Not to rain on the parade, the strides the ML crew have made so far has been astounding. I came across this the other day and thought if true, then wow! https://vimeo.com/68372335#comment_9470182. I like tests like this one, sometimes bringing out the worst in a camera can tell you how good it really is. Thanks
Nick on 06.19.13 @ 2:41PM
Nice comparisons, however, the infinity focus test was flawed and therefor moot because he wasn't using the same lens on both cameras.
I'm surprised that the edge detail on the 5DmkIII was worse than the GH2. Not surprised it outperformed it in the other tests though.
And now for our Canon-related post of the day….Geez guys.
Joe Marine on 06.19.13 @ 2:02AM
10 days and 37 posts since the last time we mentioned anything Canon. Hardly daily broseph.
Kraig on 06.19.13 @ 11:15AM
Take it you don't own one?
MRGABE on 06.19.13 @ 10:11AM
but what about Nikon?
mike_tee_vee on 06.19.13 @ 12:04PM
I think it goes back to the conspiracy theorists notion that Canon engineers left breadcrumbs in the code to be discovered at a later date in hopes of creating buzz at the grass roots level. Nikon seem to have a different approach to their code, as I recall they wanted to encrypt RAW white balance data in previous generations.
marklondon on 06.19.13 @ 1:39PM
Not a big enough userbase yet would be my guess. I don't buy the Canon 'conspiracy' theory at all.
Joe Marine on 06.19.13 @ 4:21PM
It's nonsense. It's just been a lot of hard work from dedicated people.
The intense collaboration that this animation suggests is stunningly beautiful! Thankyou ML. I wonder if the new Mac Pro is small enough so there will be a way to shoot a 5D MKIII ML raw tethered to it in a practical manner. Some kind of hardware connection will need to be invented…
CBRA on 06.19.13 @ 4:29PM
If you ask me is too intriguing that ML has launched they RAW Hack just after the BBMC pocket camera announce. Also they 7D hack. For me ML is being pay by canon. Ok, i say it. !
Joe Marine on 06.19.13 @ 4:52PM
Again, there is no conspiracy, if you watch the video, it's clear some pretty amazing things were going to happen with all the developments. From talking to the guys internally, Canon has never contacted them, and probably never will.
ML has done spectacular work! I've been interested in BMCC (and lately BMPCC) but saving on new cameras takes time and because I'm mainly working as a photographer, giving up DSLRs is not an option. The RAW hack has been an excellent opportunity for me to boost my growth as a filmmaker without new camera investments. Of course the results are "only" 1080p but at this point that suits my needs. Can't wait to see what they'll come up in the future.
The green flash towards the end seemed to represent unlocking the raw abilities, no?
We were doing diy cinema cameras nearly ten years ago. It is easy and ultra cheap to do if you design it that way. I have a $69 fullhd camcorder that is a raw fullhd inside, and some are raw 4k or 16mp p30 inside, a few hundred dollers is all that separates them from full HD raw recording, even 4k. Fullhd raw is actually not that much cost, except in drives. So even with bmc pocket camera, fullhd raw is not so remarkable, but it is a low volume product and priced as such. These dslr's are totally unremarkable and designed down to a market, not down to a price.
I was myself wondering what software was used to make this cool commit visualization – I now found out it's called Gource. Just if anyone else were wondering :)

You've heard of Collagen injections to fill fine lines or build fuller lips. It lasts a few months, but in our segment HealthWise at Five on Thursday, Dr. Jane Rowley, a plastic surgeon, said there's a new option on the way called Restylane, and it lasts much longer.
Dr. Rowley says she thinks Restylane will not cost much more than Collagen, but we won't know for sure until the FDA gives its approval, which is expected by the end of the year. So, we'll keep you posted.

'Distance' between MANY points ?

Well, the biggest problem is to figure out just what you really want to know. If you are able to figure
out, then that might give us some ideas about what calculation to do.
My calcualtions are still in their infancy right now, so I'm just trying things out. All 8900 matrices should (in theory) be exactly the same, but of course, they have small differences. I want to quantitatively describe how 'close together' all these matrices are. This way when I look at the 8900 matrices produced using a different theory, I can do the same calculation on those 8900 matrices. And the thoery that produces matrices that are 'more similar' or 'closer to being all the same' is the better theory. But to do this type of comparison, I need a robust way to measure 'how similar' 8900 points are to each other!
Quote by
the method is to write this calculation as a sum of dot products, and then expand and reorganize te terms.
I don't under stand what you mean by sum of dot products here :S
To find the Euclidean distance between vectors V and U, i can do sqrt [(U-V) dot (U-V)].
But what do you mean by SUM of dot products ??

"Mawaru Penguindrum" has been one of the more out-of-this-world anime offerings this year, crafted by none other than Kunihiko Ikuhara of "Utena" and "Sailor Moon" fame. The story revolves around the Takakura twins as they search for the mysterious Penguindrum to keep their sister, Himari, alive. All the while, however, Himari sometimes falls into a tranced state where she's possessed by a mysterious penguin hat and suddenly becomes fabulousness personified. Think "Star Driver," only this time as a girl and with a much more irritable personality. This magical transformation has delighted fans worldwide and Movic, maker of high-quality anime character goods, is caving in to the demand of fans for more "Penguindrum" items with their latest release of Himari's mysterious penguin hat. Pre-orders have just started for this one of a kind item which will cost 2625 yen. The item is already available at your favorite online store and an exact release date of January 19, 2012 has been mentioned. This will likely be very popular not only among the anime's niche fan base, but with cosplayers as well who wish to initiate their own Survival Strategy.

Movic 1/8 Kanzaki H. Aria … LOCK and LOAD!!
Aria Holmes Kanzaki of the Action-Comedy series Hidan no Aria is now up for you to click those preorder buttons. This trigger freak girl is still so cute on her action pose…. That you will forget she's an "Assault" department elite rank S.
My problems with this fig, the hair is so static, Aria moves so much in the series, so Movic should add more motion on her hair…and also they should add some accessories like kodachis (undersized Japanese swords), because Aria is not "QUADRA" if only two weapons are present…. :)
She's pointing her favorite M1911 pistols to remind us that you can order her for a price of 6800Yen and will be released this November.

WILMINGTON, Del. (AP) - Many police K9 units are shrinking nationwide, but not on Wilmington's force.
Wilmington police said that they are committed to a 12-dog crime-fighting unit at a budgeted cost to the city of just over $50,000 this year.
Police said Monday that they recently spent $6,500 to buy an 18-month-old German Shepherd to replace a dog that has been retired. Training will continue for the next several months.
Master Sgt. William McGillan, the unit supervisor, says the canine unit is used virtually on a daily basis for building searches, drug investigations and for tracking and capturing suspects.
He said the crime-fighting canines have helped Wilmington police seize thousands of dollars in illegal drugs, including marijuana, cocaine and heroin in recent months.

U.S. Premiere of SCENES FROM A MARRIAGE, THE INVISIBLE HAND & FOREVER Set for NYTW's 2014-15 Season
New York Theatre Workshop (NYTW) has announced that its 2014/15 season will include the U.S. premiere of Scenes from a Marriage written by Ingmar Bergman, adapted by Emily Mann and directed by Ivo van Hove; the New York premiere of The Invisible Hand, written by Ayad Akhtar and directed by Ken Rus Schmoll; and the New York premiere of Forever, writtenand performed by Dael Orlandersmith and directed by Neel Keller. In the coming weeks NYTW will announce an additional production that will round out the season.
Scenes from a Marriage
By Ingmar Bergman
Adapted by Emily Mann
Directed by Ivo van Hove
Internationally renowned Flemish director Ivo van Hove,returns to the city for his seventh collaboration with New York Theatre Workshop. Van Hove has received critical acclaim for his fresh interpretations of familiar dramatic works including, most recently, Roman Tragedies at BAM, as well as productions of The Little Foxes, A Street Car Named Desire and Hedda Gabler at NYTW. In Emily Mann's highly theatrical adaptation of Ingmar Bergman's popular 1974 film Scenes from a Marriage, an ensemble of virtuosic actors invite audiences into an intimate space to experience collectively the human dynamics of a relationship through all the stages of a life-from youth, to middle age to maturity. Van Hove's interpretation illuminates the universal themes of love, identity and vulnerability that are at the heart of Bergman's timeless film.
The Invisible Hand
By Ayad Akhtar
Directed by Ken Rus Schmoll
Pulitzer Prize-winning playwright Ayad Akhtar (Disgraced) makes his New York Theatre Workshop debut with The Invisible Hand, directed by Ken Rus Schmoll (Red Dog Howls). The Invisible Hand follows Nick Bright, an American stock broker, into a terrifying world of kidnapping and torture in a remote region of Pakistan. As Nick negotiates to save his own life he begins to see his captors in a new light. This new play is a chilling and complex look at how far we will go to save ourselves and the devastating ramifications of our individual actions.
Written and performed by Dael Orlandersmith
Directed by Neel Keller
Commissioned by Center Theatre Group, Los Angeles, CA
Long time New York Theatre Workshop Usual Suspect Dael Orlandersmith (Monster, The Gimmick) returns to the Workshop with an uplifting semi-autobiographical exploration of the family we are born into and the family we choose. Forever draws from Orlandersmith's own pilgrimage to the famed Père Lachaise Cemetery in Paris - the final resting place of legendary artists such as Marcel Proust, Oscar Wilde and Jim Morrison. Inspired at the graveside of these timeless artists, Orlandersmith gives a gripping account of the legacy she inherited from her mother - one of bitterness, abuse, beauty and art.
The final production of NYTW's critically acclaimed 2013/14 season is Red-Eye to Havre de Grace, by Lucidity Suitcase Intercontinental, created by Thaddeus Phillips, Jeremy Wilhelm, Geoff Sobelle, David Wilhelm and Sophie Bortolussi with Ean Sheehy and directed by Thaddeus Phillips, which begins performances April 22, 2014.

When the Tuusula artist community formed, many of its members were already known and well established. Jean Sibelius had composed his violin concerto and his early symphonies, and Juhani Aho was on his way to becoming one of the nation's most revered writers. Pekka Halonen had established a reputation as the foremost painter of Finnish nature, and Eero Järnefelt was a leading portraitist. J. H. Erkko was an established poet and champion of Finnish nationalism.
Venny Soldan-Brofeldt was the only one of the wives to make a living as an artist, although Saimi Järnefelt had worked as an actress in the Finnish Theatre before her marriage. Maija Halonen had trained as a pianist, studied languages and worked as a teacher. Both of the latter women translated books from several languages, including English, French, Italian and Norwegian. Having studied arts and crafts in Kuopio, Aino Sibelius designed furniture for Ainola.

As always, I am blown away by the comments and support you have left me on Monday's post. There are no words to express my appreciation. I would also like to clarify that when I say I want to give back to the blog community, I do not just mean those that comment or have met. I mean everyone who reads, has stumbled onto the page once, my friends and family. I really just want to be a positive force for anyone that comes into my life.
I'm also blown away by the creativity in all the recipes I've starred lately. Breakfast today made this gloomy, cloudy, humid day in NYC bright.
This little gem was brought to you by Laura. Always a source of incredible eats. I've never seen anything on there I wouldn't love to eat. Now, I just to need to out of NYC to have the time/space/planning ability to eat that way all day long. I used Nature's Path Millet Flakes for the cereal in the crust. Next time, I think I will use a Weetabix Biscuit for a more cake like texture. And it easily breaks into dust so no blender needed! I was truly sad when it was over, always a good thing to have happen when eating.
Now on to something else I want to share with you.
My home is with my mom in Syracuse, NY. I do not have a "home" here in NYC. Harlem, eeeccckk, was definitely not a home. My apartment (if you can call the dorm slash sardine can I live in an apartment) is so closed, cramped, and tiny that it just gives me anxiety. My work used to feel like a home of sorts, but now I feel like I am just being judged all the time by everyone about everything I do – I feel like an outsider. NYC is a great place, but is it ever really "home" for anyone living here??
Way back in February was the first time I went to Strala Yoga. This is about the dozenth studio in NYC I've been to. The space is medium size, on the 6th floor of a building in Soho. It is wide and open, but the room is rather plain compared to some more decorated ones I've been to. It seemed average enough, yet for me it was love at first pose.
Pre-Strala, I had a touchy relationship with yoga. I practiced on and off, trying hard to commit to at least once a week to help with my arthritis and counter act damage from running, and the high intensity training I was doing everyday. I felt good enough after, but going to a studio was like getting a cat in water. And I did not have the patience for really focusing on the practice – I mindlessly did what the instructor said usually thinking about how long I had been there and what I had to do when I left. And don't even get me started on the savasana, the corpse pose, that ends every yoga class. Because really I had time to lay there. The stretching was done, I had things to do – no time to lie still "clearing my mind." And I definitely wanted nothing to do with the spiritual, looking inside yourself, finding answers part of yoga.
Flash forward to today – So far this week, I've been to Strala Yoga everyday. When class is over, not only do I fully embrace the quiet calm of savasana, I linger around like some sort of creepy solicitor.
Sometime around March, bb and I started referring to Strala has my happy place. I even got him to come attend class with me once. His first yoga class!! Now, b does not do things that make him uncomfortable or that hold no interest to him. But he could tell how important this place was to me, and I think he just needed to experience it himself. He said I was a different person in the studio.
Strala happens to be owned by the celebrity yoga instructor, Tara Stiles, but you would not know it. Tara, her husband Mike, as well as Strala itself, is the most laid back, giving, down to earth atmosphere I have ever entered. Every instructor there has a special gift and something great to share that makes their classes unique in some way. At Strala, they prefer the term Guide however, to instructor or guru. So completely unpretentious and encouraging.
The first half of the year was dark for me, filled with stress, lack of sleep, and sadness. I'm still not completely sure why – that was when I was on track with my school plans still. I have told people that Strala is only reason I did not crumble. I feel so much comfort and support from everyone, guides and students alike. Every time I walk into that studio I make a new friend. Being there just sends a wave of calm and happiness over me.
The insights and positive changes I've see in myself this year, I also owe to Strala. Of course the answers and the discovery were ultimately in me, but Strala taught me how to look inward, focus my mind, and really connect with myself and my environment.
I was taught this by the movements. The focus of the classes is to move with ease into challenging poses. Sounds counter intuitive, and like that hard to define yogi speak, doesn't it? They use the term ease, quite often too. But don't let that fool you – their Strong classes are some of the most intense workouts I've done. This is true yoga, and I experienced it for the first time here. I've never even thought about doing the crazy inversions and balances that you see advanced practitioners doing. I never even saw the progression from the basic poses into the harder ones at other studios. However, back in May I accomplished my first forearm stand.
I was always thinking about it too much, then one day I just took a deep breath slowly walked my feet up towards my head not expecting anything to happen, and next thing I knew I was vertical. Legs straight and all!
Basically Strala, and it's guides, have been teaching me that it is not hookey to connect your mind and body. That through relaxation, breath, and ease you can actually accomplish more than if you push and stress your way into things. The amazing thing is that they didn't not focus on me, or directly tell me any of this, it just happened by showing up. I just began transforming into a stronger, more capable, more focused person physically and mentally.
I could go on forever, and much more to say on the topic. I think I will have one post a week dedicated as a "yoga talk" post, since it has changed my life so much. I even want to participate in a teachers certification now. I can really see myself thriving in that.
I will have a lot of posts like this to come. Series of sorts, where I have to give an introduction to things in my life that I have been vague about recently, and then give more detailed, thoughtful posts. If I didn't, I would be writing novels every time. Hope you do not get too annoyed by that, or if you have a better approach feedback is always welcome here at Freckles & Spice!!
Happy Friday!! I will never get tired of saying that
Do you have a home away from home??
What is the last blog recipe you tried that blew you away? Share links!!

Syntactical silliness aside, I think the headline identifies the most telling question about new Celtics forward Jeff Green. But before we get to answering it, let's look at a couple of the more obvious ones.
It depends on who you talk to.
Sam Presti and Scott Brooks have both praised Green for his high character, basketball IQ and team focus. He has young legs and good athleticism. But even with that context, the numbers suggest he's a bench player, miscast in Oklahoma City as a starter. Nothing more.
Some key numbers for his four NBA seasons, courtesy hoopdata:
That's a whole lot of mediocrity right there. There's almost no doubt the Celtics traded a finals-tested starter for a bench player, one without any realistic promise of getting within sight of even moderate stardom, much less reaching out and grabbing it.
I checked in with Royce Young of the True Hoop Network's Daily Thunder to vet that conclusion. Royce had these thoughts on Green:
Let me be forthright: Jeff Green will frustrate you. He will annoy you. He will make you say, "What is this guy doing?!?"
But he's also a very good basketball player that does very good basketballing things. He makes big plays. He's a good passer and ball-handler. And at times, a very good outside shooter.
But where he lacks is staying consistent. He tends to float, sometimes completely forgets he's 6-9 and can rebound and often settles for outside jumpers far too much. He's not a great defender and really doesn't fit well into a position. However for what he'll be called to do in Boston, he might be a perfect fit. He can settle into a scoring role off the bench and not have to worry about battling premier power forwards every night.
Plus, he's just 24 and still hasn't entirely hit his ceiling. The Celtics will have to figure out what they can pay him (or if they even want to) this offseason as he's a restricted free agent. But he's valuable because of his versatility, character and athleticism.
But you've been warned. He'll make you throw something at some point. But you won't be able to stop yourself from liking him anyway.
With that middling review, we move onto our next question...
(in Boston)
The answer, I suspect, is multifold:
1) The Celtics performed at a championship level on defense even with Shaquille O'Neal replacing Kendrick Perkins in the lineup. As well, in Perk's absence, the Celtics gained obvious benefits on offense. But here's the killer: according to 82games.com the Celtics played better with a Shaq-KG-Pierce-Allen-Rondo lineup than any single starting lineup that included Perkins over the last four years.
2) Green's defensive and offensive versatility (which don't necessarily equate to proficiency, as the numbers show) will maximize the efficiency of the other Celtics, the same way Rajon Rondo maximizes the offensive capabilities of the aging big three. Doc Rivers is practically drooling at all the big and small lineups he can trot out given Green's ability to play the three, do spot duty at the four and guard everything from 1-3 on the perimeter (that's especially useful against teams with off-the-dribble threats like the Knicks, the Bulls, the Spurs, and the Heat). Green may not dominate any of his one-on-one matchups, but my guess is that the Celtics are betting he's going to enable those around him to do just that.
3) Even before the Marquis Daniels injury, the Celtics had a pressing need for a backup small forward to share defensive duties with Paul Pierce in the playoffs. Because, as we saw against Cleveland last spring, Pierce can't produce on offense when he's forced to defend elite scorers for heavy minutes. To preserve Pierce's offensive output, the Celtics needed someone to not only replace the departed Tony Allen, but ideally, to improve upon him. Green is 6'9″ and quick enough to keep up with elite small forwards. And he's better than Tony Allen on offense. That's an upgrade across the board. Pierce should reap the benefits.
Which leads us back to the beginning…
I think the answer is: now.
And not later.
Because I don't think Jeff Green figures in the Celtics' future plans anymore than Kendrick Perkins does.
Ultimately, Perkins was shipped out in large part because his reputation exceeded his ability, and he was about to be paid on the basis of the former.
Green's career looks to be headed in the same direction. His upside seems to be as a great role player, if everything breaks right for him. But you don't win titles building around role players.
So, maybe Danny Ainge will re-sign Green after the season, and maybe he won't. But if he does, I doubt Green will end up as anything more than a trading chip used to acquire a superstar in a 2012 rebuild, the same way Ryan Gomes and Gerald Green got flipped for Kevin Garnett in 2007. I wouldn't be surprised to see Green re-signed at favorable terms this summer (that wasn't going to happen with Perk) and then flipped as part of a package soon after.
Fast forward to next year's trading deadline:
Would Orlando take a first round pick, Green and Rondo for Dwight Howard if they knew the big fellow was going to leave in free agency?
Would New Orleans take a similar package for Chris Paul if he was on his way out the door?
I'm just speculating on the specifics but I think we're rapidly approaching a time when every Celtics player is going to be in play on the trade market as Ainge tries to put a couple of top-10 players together to bridge his way to the next contending Celtics team.
If so, this could be a very brief dalliance between Mr. Green and the city of Boston.
Let's hope it's a fruitful one.

Gleison Tibau has injured his should in training, forcing him out of his next schedule lightweight bout against Hermes Franca (18-7) at UFC 90 "Silva vs. Cote" at the Allstate Arena in Rosemont, Ill., on October 25, according to Sherdog.com.
Marcus Aurelio (16-6) has been tapped as the replacement to take on Franca in the "Windy City" on fight night.
Here's a snip from Frana on the opponent switch:
"It doesn't matter who I fight; it's a big challenge. It is what it is. We're both professionals. I think it's better for me. I know his game really well. I've never trained with Gleison before."
Aurelio of course trains in at American Top Team in Coconut Creek, Fla., which is very close to Franca's facility -- The Armory -- just north in Jupiter. Both Brazilians are veterans of the sport, having started their professional mixed martial arts careers around the same time in 2001.
Franca dropped a unanimous decision to Frank Edgar at UFC Fight Night 14: "Silva vs. Irvin" back in July. It was his first fight back after serving a 12-month suspension for steroid use.
He is a former number one title contender who reeled of eight straight wins before losing to then UFC Lightweight Champion, Sean Sherk, at UFC 73: "Stacked" in July 2007.
Aurelio will look to rebound from a unanimous decision loss to Tyson Griffin at UFC 86: "Jackson vs. Griffin" back in July. The defeat snapped a two-win fight streak inside the Octagon after recovering from a three-fight losing skid.
"Maximus" -- a submission master -- has uncharacteristically dropped four of his last six fights (all to top-level competition. Regardless, a win against Franca is important. And it's not going to be a walk in the park by any stretch.
UFC 90 features several solid match ups, including the 185-pound tilt between UFC Middleweight Champion Anderson Silva and Patrick Cote, as well as the huge welterweight showdown between Thiago Alves and Diego Sanchez.

While some people want to put their high school years behind them, Mary Jane (O'Rourke) Brady considers those four years "a treasure."
"They were very, very special," said Brady, salutatorian of the first graduating class at Schlarman High School. "There was a sense of togetherness and sacrifice, and the quality we were exposed to was a treasure."
Brady, 81, of Bloomington, has compiled a history called "Schlarman High School … Its Beginning, 1945-1949."
The spiral-bound book, produced by Faulstich Printing Co., contains photos and memories from former students, faculty names, athletics, classes, a description of the Hartshorn mansion and many other details.
"This became a labor of love and gratitude to our parents, the religious, the teachers and even the students of that era," she said.
Janet Picillo, development director at the school, now called Schlarman Academy, is pleased with the book, calling it Brady's own personal crusade.
"It was done with a lot of love and dedication," Picillo said. "Mary Jane is one of our incredible alumni — always a wonderful volunteer."
The school has 75 copies, and there are copies at the Danville Public Library and Vermilion County Museum, as well. The books are for sale, and more will be ordered when this supply runs out.
"It's nice to have our history compiled in one place," Picillo said.
Brady said she hopes the faculty and staff will read the history and share it with students so everyone will understand how their education is so solidly rooted.
Gathering details
Several years ago when Brady and Picillo were talking, the idea to compile a history came up. Brady later volunteered, as long as there weren't any time restraints.
During two years, she worked on the history, visiting Danville and contacting classmates. Eventually, she pieced all the facts together, using details already compiled by the Rev. John Flattery and others.
The book begins with the end of World War II, when pastors of the Catholic churches in the Danville and Westville area discussed the need for a Catholic high school.
In 1945, while a site was being secured, the first high school class of 39 students began its freshman year in a specially prepared area of St. Patrick's Grade School.
That class was known as the senior class all four years.
"They pounded into us how important (this was)," Brady recalled. "We took this very responsibly. We really did understand the mantle we were given to get the school off the ground."
In April 1946, officials purchased the W.G. Hartshorn estate (called Greystone) at Vermilion Street and Winter Avenue. The mansion had landscaped lawns, a greenhouse and other buildings on 13 acres. Five more acres were purchased, which gave the school frontage on Lake Vermilion.
The school was named Schlarman High School in honor of the Most Rev. J.H. Schlarman, bishop of the Peoria Diocese, who supported the purchase and was recognized as one of the top administrators of the Catholic Church in the country. Schlarman died in 1951 at age 72.
The mansion was remodeled to include living quarters for the nuns, classrooms, a library, kitchen and community room; lockers, restrooms and showers were provided in the basement.
On Sept. 16, 1946, the school officially opened in its present location with more than 100 freshmen and sophomores.
During the years, a new classroom wing was added and many other changes were made. The students and athletic teams became known as the Hilltoppers — referring to the fact that the campus sits on the highest geographical point in Danville.
Strong foundation
Brady recalled how the school retained items from its mansion days, such as the radiators with wrought iron coverings. The home's dining room was turned into the biology lab; a button under the hostess' chair would call the butler.
Although the school was in its infancy, Brady said she received a well-rounded foundation in academics.
"We went away to college very well-prepared," she said, citing the faculty's strong credentials.
While Brady enjoyed compiling the history — calling it a thank-you gift to the school — she doesn't plan to pursue any other books.
"I was very, very happy to do it," she said, "but somebody else is welcome to write the sequel."
Brady's background
After graduating in 1949, Brady attended Marycrest College at St. Ambrose University, Davenport, Iowa, and graduated with honors in 1953. She taught at Northeast School in Danville (the first year it opened); University of Iowa, Iowa City; and the Area Vocations Center, Bloomington.
She holds teaching certificates in home economics and elementary education.
She was married to a classmate, Dave Brady, who died in 2005; they raised five sons.
Her brother, John O'Rourke, a retired attorney, lives in Danville.

Stephen fundraiser dinner Saturday benefits education
The 35th celebration Saturday, a fundraiser for the Bobby Stephen Fund for Education, begins at 5:30 p.m. and includes a full buffet dinner, music, step dancers and a few speakers. Tickets are $50 and available at the door.
Stephen, also a former state senator, is a father of three successful sons and said he keeps holding the St. Patrick's Day party to raise funds to help young people who need some extra help to succeed.
He said that's why the fund is now a 501 (c) (3) charitable organization and why he continues the party tradition. "I want to give back," he said.
The party traditionally draws a crowd that's heavy on politicians, from governor to city ward clerk, but also draws lots of "civilians."
Since 1994, Stephen said: "We've given over 300 scholarships." Last year, the number was 22, and the previous year it was 35. "It's a way to help at-risk students," he said.

A Canadian Explains Our 2nd Amendment
The debate is not about gun ownership nearly as much as it is about destroying the US Constitution.
Its pretty clear….This Canadian understands the U.S. Constitution better than most Americans.
Howard Galganov at galganov.com:
As I've written many times . . . the genius of the American Constitution is in its simplicity, understandability and presentation.
For instance . . . instead of the Constitution telling the government what it cannot do, it simply states what the government can do. And if what the government can do is not written into the Constitution, the government simply cannot do it.
What can be simpler than that?
Yet, in spite of this self-evident truth, the LEFT is in a relentless battle against what I believe to be America's . . . and by extension – the world's most important Constitutional guarantee.
I believe that America's Second Amendment is the world's most important Constitutional Guarantee, simply because America's strength and FREEDOM is the strength and FREEDOM of the entire world.
A well-regulated militia, being necessary to the security of a free state, the right of the people to keep and bear arms, shall not be infringed.
We have all been inundated with the LEFTIST propaganda about the Second Amendment. How passing "reasonable" gun laws will not take away the rights of people to hunt.
Please read ONCE AGAIN, those TWENTY-SEVEN words that precede the above paragraph. Does it say anywhere in the text about a person's right to hunt, or to have weapons for the purpose of hunting?
NO . . . But it does say . . . "being necessary to the security of a free state . . ."
Does it say anywhere within those TWENTY-SEVEN words what type of weapons (guns) the people are allowed to possess? Or does it say . . . "the right of the people to keep and bear arms, SHALL NOT BE INFRINGED"?
Remember what I wrote about what the Founding Fathers intended when they created the Constitution: It was a document that spelled out what the government could do. And if it didn't say what the government could do . . . IT COULD NOT.

Intro: Once again Bill Self's Jayhawks looked poised to snag a No. 1 seed in the NCAA tournament, and with that came a giant target on the back of the jersey. Expectations can a blessing and a curse. It's a testament to what this team has accomplished, but it also provides plenty of ammo for critics if they fall short, and the reality is that only one team can come away with the title of champion.
For their part the Jayhawks are without a doubt among the elite in college basketball and after coming up short a season ago the Morris twins are focused on getting Kansas back to the Final Four with the end goal of a National Title.
Considering the Jayhawks have one of the top offenses in the country and they appear to be peaking defensively, this could easily be a team that makes that run and gives the Jayhawk faithful another coveted shot at a title. It boils down to focus, consistency, and effort and as is always the case in March, a little bit of luck. Kansas has the talent and the tools, now it just needs to come together.
Record: 32-2, 17-2
RPI: No. 1
Key wins: Saturday Nov 27th vs. Arizona: Kansas started out with what may have been their most impressive eight minutes of basketball all year long before settling into a lull, allowing Arizona to creep back in. Potential top pick in the upcoming draft Derek Williams served a bit of a wakeup call to the Kansas bigs with a nice game, but Kansas was able to pull out an eight-point win against the eventual Pac-10 champs.
Saturday January 29th vs. Kansas State: The Jayhawks dominated a sinking Wildcat team start to finish. Since that time Kansas State has turned a corner for the positive making the 20-plus-point manhandling by Kansas in this one look fairly impressive.
Wednesday March 2nd vs. Texas A&M: A game that looked like a typical NCAA tournament struggle, and the Jayhawks slowly pulled away. It was a game where Kansas wasn't shooting their best; the game turned physical, and the Jayhawks found a way to win.
Saturday March 5th vs. Missouri: Missouri was 17-0 at home headed into this one, and the Jayhawks were able to go into Columbia and get a win. Despite a large number of turnovers the Kansas defense carried the load and the Jayhawks clinched the outright Big 12 title.
Key losses:
Saturday January 22nd vs. Texas: The morning after the death of Thomas Robinson's mother the Jayhawks just ran out of gas in the second half and struggled as badly as they have all year on the offensive end. Not a bad loss in the least.
Monday February 14th vs. Kansas State: The Wildcats won in convincing fashion avenging an earlier loss and have since been labeled the hottest team in college basketball. Again, hardly a bad loss for Kansas.
Player(s) to watch: For Kansas it goes without saying that the Morris twins drive the ship and any time the twin forwards are playing at their best the Jayhawks are hard to stop. But if you look beyond that there is a player emerging as a leader especially on the defensive end in Elijah Johnson. Bill Self always preaches defense, and at times this has looked like one of his teams that has a long way to go in that regard. Since Johnson stepped into a more prominent role he has been able to elevate the on ball defense for the Jayhawks and that intensity seems to be rubbing off on others. It's the type of play that can take this Kansas team, which is great offensively, to great all around.

3.65/5 rDev +2.5%
Sampled on Super Bowl Sunday 2009. Poured from bottle no. 2668-C631 into a thicker weight pint glass.
Appearance - Very nice brown with reddish tones and excellent clarity. Short-lived beige head but decent lacing.
Smell - Malts mainly and something a tad nutty or fruity. Vague hops.
Mouthfeel - Medium mouth feel that takes its time to breakdown into carbonation while swishing on the tongue.
Taste - Decent bitterness and good balance of hops. Slight aftertaste.
Nut Browns and other types of browns are probably my favorite style next to English Bitter. Not too heavy and well balanced. A positive experience.

Presentation: It was poured from a brown 12oz bottle into a pint glass.
Appearance: It has a reddish-brown amber colored body with good clarity and a thin of white colored head. The head fades out quickly and makes no lacing at all.
Smell: The aroma has a very mild malt scent in the background with good solid citrus hop notes throughout.
Taste/Mouth feel: Its flavor has mild malt flavor with some faint nutty notes and a solid citrus hop presence. The finish has a good bitter hop fade and the texture is smooth with a good balanced carbonation and a medium body.
Notes: Nothing really stands out as it is a rather simple and safe beer with good drinkability.

Reviewed from notes-
Poured from a 12oz bottle into a standard pint glass. Firm pour elicits a 1/4 inch head that fades rapidly and leaves a very spotty light lace. Light brown in color.
Nose- Mild notes of caramel, light pine.
Palate- One of the better of the winter sampler. A faint nuttiness, with some caramel notes followed by an ever so faint bit of citrus, pine and herbal notes. A little thin, mildly dry finish.
Mouthfeel- Actively carbonated, tart and dry.
Drinkability- Very Good, too bad there are only 2 in 12 pack.

got this in a winter sampler pack. poured from a 12 oz. bottle into a pint glass. pours a very clear dark amber brown color with an off white to tan head that has some pretty nice retention, as well as some decent lacing. hardly anything going on in the nose at all. a little bit of caramel, possibly some dried fruits and a tiny bit of hops. the taste is a little metallic, some caramel malts in there perhaps some chocolate with a rather subtle hop finish. the taste kinda reminds me of a hoppy winter ale, like winter hook, or never summer ale, definately not as good as those 2, but close. rather light mouthfeel which is prolly why i drank it so fast. medium amount of carbonation. its definately a drinkable beer, not too bad, but there is room for improvement.

Color wise I can't even call it a brown ale maybe a mahogany with a blood orange glow to it forms with a light khaki head and fine intricate even lacing sticks to my imperial pint as it dwindles down. At first whiff I'm getting pure hop dominance with citrus and herbal hop qualities mild lemon peel and blended into a green tea bag. Though as it warms up a bit some roasty malts with some toasted nut qualities arising it does show it's true colors. Flavors however don't work out as nicely as the nose did the hop profile is brash with bitterness kicking in where malts are competing the roastiness and hops collide with each sip. A brew like this just makes me want to turn to one of my Celebration ales sitting in the case I just bought. Mouthfeel is rich in hop bitterness in the finish but lacks finesse, medium bodied ale with sturdy carbonation pushing along trace hop oils. Nothing spectacular but nothing I absolutely can't stand, again in the drinkability scale it ranks heavily in mediocrity.

12 oz bottle poured into glass. Reddish brown copper color with an average off white rocky head. Aroma of hops at first with an afterthought of malts. Hints of caramel. Very well balanced flavor, a great style of beer. Being a huge fan of IPA's and also a brown ale fan this one is great for me. Hints of chocolate and caramel malts, earthy hoppy finish. A little rough on the palate, good carbonation but slightly astringent. Overall I am VERY happy that they took the IPA to the next level and I hope more companies follow suit.

12 ounce bottle, part of Saranac's "12 Beers of Winter" sample pack. Served in a Sam Adams BL glass, the beer pours a clear amber/brown color with a frothy off-white head. Head retention and lacing are both very good. The aroma is mainly piney hops, but there's also some toasted malt, nuts and brown sugar also noticable. The taste is similar to the aroma, but the malt comes out more in the taste. It tastes like toasted malt, pine hops, bready malt, nuts and some spicy and citrusy hops. Good balance between the malt and hops. Mouthfeel/body is light/medium, it seems thin but still a bit creamy with good carbonation. Drinkability is good, it's easy to drink and also quite tasty. I didn't know what to think at first when I saw this beer was called an India Brown Ale, but I liked this beer a lot. If Saranac ever made this in a 6 pack, I'd buy it. All in all I think it's a good beer, it's better than I thought it would be.

A - A finger and ahalf of crisp white foam... Solid lacing... Intense swirling carbonation after pours settles leaving columns of medium paced bubbles... Light reddish brown color... Highly translucent... Coats glass exceptionally well...
S - Nice balance of muted hops and subtle malt... Simple and delicate... The scent is quite subdued, a little umpf would have been nice... Still looking forward to taking a sip...
T - Malt... Earthy notes... Biscuit... Mild hops... An ever so slight spiciness... Pretty tasty.l..
M - Medium carbonation... Lush... Sturdy medium bodied construction... Slightly dry...
D - Solid and quite drinkable... A well crafted brown ale with a near perfect balance of malt and hops... Nicely executed by Saranac... The gem of this season's winter variety pack...

rich brown with a huge creamy head and a huge lace down the side, this looks very inticing to say the least! Smell was of roasted nuts with a hint of hops. Caramel sweetness undertones as well, smells thick and very fresh. The taste was very full. Nice roasted tones and caramel was the predominant flavors. Very complex though as there was much hoppiness at both the beginning and the finish. The finish was very nice, very dry and left you looking for more.

Poured a dark amber hue with a two finger creamy white head. There was good lacing and retention.
The smell featured a husky malt, some caramel and a flowery hop.
The taste consisted of a light sweetness - perhaps a bit artificial, an earthy malt, some smoke and burnt grain and a grassy hop.
The mouthfeel was toward the thinner side of the style.
Overall a tasty and unique brown ale.

Poured into a pint glass. I'm excited to drink this because it will once and for all rid my refridgerator of the virus known as Saranac.
4.0 A: Looks great, which is typical of Saranac. The problem will ultimately lie in the paragraphs below. Amber brown color. One and a half fingers of thick head that retains well and leaves tons of lacing.
3.0 S: Weak aroma overall, but not bad. Hints of dark fruit and caramel and the smallest touch of herbal hops.
2.5 T: This beer drinks like a macro in a sense. The first sip is full of flavor, but each subsequent sip is progressively more bland. The tastebuds have never become tolerant so fast. A couple of ounces in it tastes like a watered down version of a decent brown ale.
3.0 M: Light body, too light to be any good. Smooth, but a little overcarbonated.
2.5 D: I don't even want to finish this one.
Well, hopefully I'm done with Saranac for a while. Most of their beers pissed me off in that they looked really good so the overall scores were way higher than the score for taste. Saranac is only good for one thing as far as I'm concerned: to convert the masses to craft.
BA: "Here, have a Saranac. It doesn't taste like much, so you won't hate it."
Masses: "Hey, I don't hate this. It so mild that it tastes like BMC minus the disgusting adjunct taste."
BA: "Good, now try this (*insert good beer*), it's like Saranac only it tastes good."

Another offering from the 12 Beers of Winter, and now for something completely different as brown ale (which I enjoy) meets IPA (not my favorite) Poured into my 12oz "pint" glass forming a 1" head over a brown body with lots of carbonation. Lots of citrus in the nose, a little caramel and some bread or grain notes. The taste is first a bit of the bread and caramel then erased by the citrus it finishes with a dry peppery citrusy aftertaste. The mouthfeel is nice, just nice, not overly full yet not watery, nice. As fr drinkability, well...it ain't bad, a bit hoppier than I'd like in an english brown ale but not as hoppy as the regular IPAs every brewery seems to want to throw into their mixed packs. The balance overall is pretty decent and it's tastier than a light beer but I doubt that I'd buy this in anything other than a variety case.

Pours a dark sparkling brown with a foamy, soapy head that hints at hoppiness. Nice, lasting, soapy hop lacing.
Aroma is not too powerful. Hops, not much else.
Nice hop bitterness, but I fail to detect any real brown ale flavor here. It's more of an IPA with a touch of caramel.
Mouth feel is above average. Nice and creamy, the hops are not too strong and it doesn't finish all that bitter. Carbonation is adequate, maybe a little overdone, but not enough to hurt the overall score.
This is a good effort but really nothing special.

I've seen a lot of discussion on the forums about how coffee beers should be their own category but I think if anything Indian Browns could be the next new style. I've found they can be satisfying and complex. This one pours a medium brown with nondescript head and lacing. The nose is malty with floral and citrus notes to the hops.
The malt backbone is solid but fairly basic. The late breaking hops feature notes that match well with the nose. The texture is a bit thin and finishes chalky and dry but the aftertaste is reasonably clean. I could drink this in quantity but there are far better examples of this nascent style.

Served at cellar temp.
Pours good head that hangs around for awhile before leaving. The lace does the same. Crystal clear reddish-brown color.
Smells like amber malt, hops, and allspice. Similiar to Saranac Pumpkin Ale, just not as strong.
Tastes like an average brown combined with an average English pale ale. The nut brown sweetness is there as is some bitter hops but neither is particularly pronounced. I would like to have seen more of both.

Poured from a 12oz. bottle into a US tumbler pint glass.
A: The beer is a bright reddish brown color with a short off-white head that fades slowly and leaves a thick lace on the glass.
S: The aroma is of caramelized malts, nuts, spice and some hops.
T: The taste is malty and spicy with sweet flavors of caramel, spices and nuts. There's a decent hops presence that comes in next and remains strong into the finish, but not strong enough to give the beer a hoppy flavor. The after-taste is slightly bitter.
M: Crisp but not very smooth, medium body, medium carbonation, finish is clean and dry.
D: A little tasty, goes down ok, not too filling, mild kick, decent representation of style, not one of the better brown ales that I've had and it's yet another mediocre Saranac beer.

Part of winter variety pack (6 beers - 2 of each):
Pours orange brown with a nice foamy tan head that leaves lacing.
The smell is nutty/toffeeish with a pine/citrus which is there, but a bit overpowered.
The taste is metallic at first, which subsides to the back as it progresses. It has a "brown" maltiness - towards chocolate. The "generous" hops that were promised on the label...there, but I suppose "generous" is relative. I've had a couple browns that pull off a "hoppy" interpretation of the style without clashing. This leans towards borderline. There is a pine/resin but somewhat plastic-y. After the initial metallic character subsides (pretty quickly, fortunately), there is a maltiness with a pale ale hoppiness mixed in, giving it a nice pine touch.
The carbonation is medium to aggresive. It leans towards the light end of medium bodied, but is coating, and pretty smooth.
It grew on me as it progressed. A decent attempt at a hoppy brown that works to a degree - have had better - could be worse. In the end, a drinkable beer that is malty but with a hop touch that can be appreciated a bit more once the metallic touch goes to the back.

Pours with a nice foamy head and a reddish amber color- pretty light for a brown ale IMO but it still looks nice. Very thin mouthfeel. No real detectable flavors from the brown ale that you'd be looking for and the aroma is lackng as well. This seems sort of like a sub par IPA rather than an India Brown Ale.

The shoes are comfortable, but it took a while for them to stretch to my shoe size, stiff.

About Me Stylish
Looks, standing, walking and style, not too sure about the greatness. I've had a few people say they are very nice. I like that they don't gap on either side of the shoe. A pretty nice show in all.

As for me, I can't seem to find the code to the file cabinet in Dad's Office?
