Does Wellbeing Services keep student records?
We keep computer-based records of the information you provide to help us offer you a professional service and to ensure you receive appropriate advice and support. All personal and sensitive data that we hold is processed according to the requirements of the Data Protection Act 1998. Personal information conveyed to us will not be disclosed to other university staff or external organisations without your explicit and informed consent. You may also withhold your permission for us to share information but this may affect the level of support the university is able to offer you.
Wellbeing Services also collect routine statistical information about each contact made with the service which is later anonymised and then analysed for audit and evaluation purposes. This information is subsequently summarised and interpreted in the Wellbeing Services Annual Report. The utmost care is taken to ensure no individually identifiable information is disclosed.
Are pschological therapies free?
Yes, counselling is free to all Exeter University students.
I experience mental health difficulties, what support is available for me at the University?
The University offers professional mental health support to all its students through the Wellbeing Services team at the Wellbeing Centre on Streatham Campus and the Accessibility Service at the Cornwall Campus. Both teams offer a confidential and supportive place to discuss what is happening for you and how your mental health difficulties are impacting on your course, academic progression and university life.
Support can include assistance in managing your mental health difficulties, putting in place reasonable adjustments to your course, liaising with your academic College, and/or signposting to other services such as your GP, International Student Support and community mental health services.
For more information, please see our leaflet on "Support for Students Experiencing Mental Health Difficulties".
I have a mental health difficulty and I'm struggling with my course what should I do?
If you are struggling with your course as a result of your mental health difficulty it is important to talk to someone as soon as possible.
There are several people you could speak to including:
- A member of staff from Wellbeing Services or (if you are in Cornwall) an Accessibility Advisor
- Your GP/doctor
- Your personal tutor
- A member of staff from your College or Student Office
Do you offer a confidential service?
A confidential service is offered whether a student has chosen to declare their health issue or not. This means that personal information shared with Wellbeing Services (Exeter) or Accessibility (Cornwall) teams will not be passed on to anybody else without the student's permission.
There are, however, rare occasions when the rule of confidentiality might be waived. For full details of these exceptions, please see our Wellbeing Services Confidentiality Statement.
A Health, Wellbeing and Fitness to Study meeting has been mentioned to me, what is this?
The Health, Wellbeing and Fitness to Study procedure ensures you are properly supported with any health and wellbeing issue that is impacting on your ability to study. The full procedure can be found at: http://www.exeter.ac.uk/staff/policies/calendar/part1/otherregs/health/
A Health, Wellbeing and Fitness to Study meeting provides an opportunity to consider how you are managing at university and what adjustments and support options may be helpful to you.
If a Health, Wellbeing and Fitness to Study meeting has been suggested to you, you may find it helpful to make a Wellbeing Services (mental health) appointment to support you in this.
I have been recommended mental health mentoring, who would this be with and what would it involve?
Mental health mentoring is a form of study and personal support which helps students with mental health issues to fully access their course. The Mental Health Mentors are experienced mental health professionals who work as part of the Wellbeing Services Team based at the Wellbeing Centre on the Exeter Campus. A Mental Health Mentor would work with you to identify how your mental health is impacting on your daily life including your ability to access your course. They will also work with you to develop strategies to help you manage your health and wellbeing more effectively.
I have heard that I may be able to get reasonable adjustments because of my mental health difficulty, what are they?
The Equality Act (2010) requires that reasonable adjustments are put in place to remove barriers that may prevent students from participating at university and to minimise the impact that their mental health difficulty may have on their ability to study.
A reasonable adjustment is a response to an individual student's needs and is any slight alternative to the existing framework, elements and assessments of the student's course. Examples of reasonable adjustments include:
- Putting an individual learning plan in place (ILP)
- Exam arrangements
- Special field trip arrangements
- Renegotiated deadlines
- Alternative assessments

I'll do this for two very stupid reasons: I haven't quite gotten over the misconception that people need to hear my opinion; and this will give people (Colts fans) something to laugh in my face about come January.
In any event, I'll put out my expectation for the season-end standings. I've only put records for division winners. Have fun shredding this:
1. New England 11-5
2. Miami
4. Bills
1. Ravens 12-4
2. Bengals
3. Steelers
4. Browns
1. Texans 13-3
2. Colts
3. Titans
4. Jaguars
1. San Diego 10-6
2. Chiefs
3. Oakland
4. Denver
1. Giants 11-5
2. Cowboys
3. Redskins
4. Eagles
1. Green Bay 12-4
2. Bears
3. Vikings (no Favre)
4. Lions
1. Saints 13-3
2. Falcons
3. Panthers
4. Buccaneers
1. SF 49ers 12-4
2. Seahawks
3. Cardinals
4. Rams
It would be pointless for me to just water down last year's standings so I tried to shake it up a bit. I've got only 3 repeat division winners out of 8 from last year. NFC's big gainers are NY and SF, from 8-8 to Div. winners. Big losers are the Cards and Vikes, who fall to average without their respective star QBs.
In the AFC big gainers are the Ravens and Texans, both 9-7 last year. Big losers, none really, but to guess Indy will finally NOT win their division is a bit of a wild stab.
Here's the part where you tell me I'm dumb and why:

And now, my improved Cylon Centurions...
Once I figure out how to smooth out the dome on the helmets they'll look even better.
The scanning eye was done with video overlay on their eye track. All armor fashioned in Blender, and then attached to a solid black avatar in iClone.
needs moar flares :p
LOL! Now now, do I want to just wear 17 flares and do the bare minimum to get by? Or do I want 1125 flares like JJ, and show I'm willing to go the distance on the job? :D
Helmets smoothed out...thanks to a hint from Gizmo at the Reallusion forums: (Now featuring slacker friendly, flare-free environments) :D
TOS-like planet XD
Nice again............are the corridors old style BSG ones or just your creation?
Thank you, Kevin. :)
Actually the corridors are content that I'd purchased from the Reallusion Content Store, part of the Sci-Fi Interiors package. Some setups were inspired by certain actual sci-fi movies and shows. For example, the window that the Command Centurion is standing in front of was clearly inspired by the Star Destroyer bridge windows from The Empire Strikes Back.
They also have a Starship Construction package that has some parts inspired by Star Trek, Star Wars, and Buck Rogers in the 25th Century.
The ships I've been doing lately though have been completely fabricated by me in Blender. :)
Yeah, I thought the windows were a little Star Destroyer like but I couldn't remember BSG itself enough to recall what the Basestar interiors were like in the 70s version of the show.
I think the battlestar and basestar interiors were redresses of each other....very angular and dim. My interiors are not accurate...and moreso my redesign. I think my Galactica bridge is accurate in layout only.

Summer break is here and summer camps are underway. On and in the water is a great way to spend your summer days. We head to Johns Island for our Cool Camp of the week.
Enjoy the long days of summer, and the water at the Preserve at Fenwick Hall is a perfect place. The Charleston Collegiate School offers a kayaking camp at the Preserve at Fenwick Hall. In addition to having fun, students learn about the importance of the environment. Camp director Brooke Haynie says, "We take the kids out kayaking. We teach them kayak safety. We take them crabbing, fishing, do a bunch of cast netting. They like playing in the pluff mud, and just teaching hem about ecology, really teaching without them even knowing they're learning. If we can make our students stewards of the environment that's the biggest thing."
This is the second year of the kayaking camp. Campers become certified through the American Canoe Association. Camper Brinley Frank says, "We went kayaking, swimming in the pond, the river, we also got to play in pluff mud. We get to learn while having fun." Rhyanne Foster says, "We are learning about the marshes and what lives in them."
Do you have a cool camp you want to spread the word about? We are highlighting camps that promote continued education, mentoring, health and fitness, and creativity. Send an email to Octavia at email@example.com, and your summer camp may be featured on News 2.

Cam is the most successful rookie QB in league history, even better than Peyton. Let's analyze why Cam had such a successful rookie season. We can then measure RG3 against that to gain our "historical perspective". (And we all know history likes to repeat itself. Besides, isn't recent history more relevant than the 10-year-old and even 40-year-old history recounted in an article Park-ed on the front page?)
Here's an Initial Stab at it:
* Cam's Resiliency – Cam has a tremendous ability to bounce back, rather than going through the prolonged cold streaks so common in rookie QBs. (For example, after a three interception performance against Atlanta, he bounced back the next week with a terrific performance to beat You Know Who.)
- Can any of us picture RG3 staying down or losing confidence after a poor performance?
* Panthers' O Scheme – Carolina's coaches adopted an offense that catered to Cam's unique skill set.
- Mike and Kyle know they must do this for RG3. They've vowed to do it.
* Cam's Vertical Passing Game - with Steve Smith.
- We did acquire speed this off-season, right? Whose long ball is more accurate, Cam's or RG3's? That's how RG3 shredded opposing Ds on his way to the Heisman, isn't it?
* Cam had a solid left tackle - A bad left tackle kills a QB's development.
- Silverback is one of the league's best young tackles. (Weed better hope he grows up though.)
* Cam had an experienced center - who recognized the D alignment and correctly called the O line's protection. (The importance and value of this is underrated by the majority of football fans.) But it affects every guy on the line and the entire play.
- Monty is a solid, experienced and smart center. He's a major asset for RG3. Lucky for us, Monty is durable too.
* Cam's five-star play action - This did more than just propel Carolina's passing game. It significantly improved Carolina's formerly anemic rushing attack.
- RG3 is freakishly smooth and dangerously deceptive in play action. Plus our running attack was already showing signs of life at season end.
* Most of All, Cam is a Unique QB - Cam plays like no other QB in history. Defensive coordinators still haven't "evolved" a strategy to stop him.
- Can you name another young quarterback whose skill set is unique and likely a problem for opposing defenses?
* Carolina's Defense - What, are you kidding me? Carolina's what? That 27th ranked D didn't help Cam succeed. It hurt him!
- True. Cam performed well in spite of his team's defense. This is only one of a number of areas where RG3 has an advantage over Cam. While there are many of these, a couple off the top of my head are: (1) RG2 counseling RG3, guiding him, keeping him focused and grinding day in and day out and supporting him. (2) Nothing against Cam, but I'm willing to bet RG3 is harder on himself and more of a perfectionist.
Congrats on making Heisman history, Robert. Time to make some Burgundy and Gold history!

University of Alabama football players are getting accustomed to life in Washington, DC. The National Championship team met with President Barack Obama Monday afternoon at the White House. This is the third time in four years the University of Alabama football has made a trip to Washington, DC. You can say winning national championships definitely has its privileges.
The team's visit to the White House was originally scheduled for last month. It was postponed until April 15 due to a winter storm.

Albany - City leaders consider building a $17,000,000 hotel and conference center downtown. The hotel would be built on Front Street next to the River Center which is already under construction. On Tuesday, The Earl Patton Company based in Atlanta proposed building a Hilton Garden Inn Hotel and Conference Center.
"The hotel would be state-of -the-art with a massive ball room, 4 board rooms, a restaurant and a bar," said investor Earl Patton.
The hotel will also have 120 rooms. This is a private-public partnership. Nearly $5,000,000 of tax money would be used for the projects. No decision was made on the proposal.

Barroso says austerity has run its course
A large number of European media are leading with comments by Jose Manuel Barroso according to which he signalled a change in the EU's demand for austerity policies. "While I think this policy is fundamentally right, I think it has reached its limits." he is quoted as saying, adding that for a policy to work, it would require a minimum of political and social support. In its coverage of the story, the FT linked the policy reversal to the outcome of the Italian elections, the recession and the re-assessment of Reinhart-Rogoff.

'Pink Panther' actor Herbert Lom dead at 95
Herbert Lom, the durable Czech-born actor best known as Inspector Clouseau's long-suffering boss in the comic ''Pink Panther'' movies, died Thursday, his son said. He was 95.
Alec Lom said his father died peacefully in his sleep at home in London.
Herbert Lom's handsomely lugubrious look and rich, resonant voice were suited to comedy, horror and everything in between. It served him well over a six-decade career in which roles ranged from Napoleon Bonaparte — whom he played twice — to the Phantom of the Opera.
The London-based star appeared in more than 100 films, including ''Spartacus'' and ''El Cid,'' acted alongside film greats including Charlton Heston and Kirk Douglas, and worked for directors from Stanley Kubrick to David Cronenberg.
But Lom was most famous for playing Charles Dreyfus, the increasingly unhinged boss to Peter Sellers' befuddled detective Clouseau in the popular ''Pink Panther'' series. The two actors starred together from ''A Shot in the Dark'' in 1964 until Sellers' death in 1980, and Lom continued in the series until ''Son of the Pink Panther'' in 1993.
Alec Lom said his father was forever grateful to director Blake Edwards for offering him a comic role after years of being cast as ''the suave Eastern Bloc gangster with the dark looks.''
''It was a new lease of life as an actor, one he embraced warmly,'' Alec Lom said.
''He had many funny stories about the antics that he and Peter Sellers got up to on the set. It was a nightmare working with Peter because he was a terrible giggler and, between my father and Peter's laughter, they ruined dozens and dozens of takes.''
Born Herbert Karel Angelo Kuchacevic ze Schluderpacheru in Prague in 1917, Lom came to Britain just before World War II and began his career as a radio announcer with the BBC's Czech-language service.
Adopting the shortest stage name he could think of, Lom had his first major movie role as Napoleon in 1942's ''The Young Mr. Pitt.''
He played a psychiatrist counseling a traumatized pianist in ''The Seventh Veil,'' a big box-office hit in 1945, and had roles opposite Richard Widmark, in the moody ''Night and the City'' (1950), Henry Fonda in ''War and Peace'' — Lom was Napoleon again — and a pre-James Bond Sean Connery in truck-driving thriller ''Hell Drivers'' (1957).
In the comedy ''The Ladykillers'' (1955), one of the best-loved British films of the 1950s, Lom played a member of a ruthless crime gang fatally outsmarted by a mild-mannered old lady.
Horror roles included the title character in Hammer Studios' ''The Phantom of the Opera'' in 1962, and Van Helsing in 1970's ''Count Dracula,'' opposite Christopher Lee.
A postwar American career was stymied when Lom was denied a visa — he suspected because of his left-wing views — though he later appeared on U.S. TV series including ''The Streets Of San Francisco'' and ''Hawaii Five-O.''
In the 1950s, Lom also had stage success playing the King of Siam in the original London production of the ''The King And I'' at the Theatre Royal Drury Lane, opposite Valerie Hobson.
Lom is survived by his sons Nicholas and Alec, and his daughter Josephine — named after Napoleon's wife.

I will be like…….

I will be like…….
(Source: star0717, via joshanizer)
(Nuns) were the first feminists, earning Ph.D.'s or working as surgeons long before it was fashionable for women to hold jobs. As managers of hospitals, schools and complex bureaucracies, they were the first female C.E.O.'s.
They are also among the bravest, toughest and most admirable people in the world. In my travels, I've seen heroic nuns defy warlords, pimps and bandits. Even as bishops have disgraced the church by covering up the rape of children, nuns have redeemed it with their humble work on behalf of the neediest.
So, Pope Benedict, all I can say is: You are crazy to mess with nuns.
The Vatican issued a stinging reprimand of American nuns this month and ordered a bishop to oversee a makeover of the organization that represents 80 percent of them. In effect, the Vatican accused the nuns of worrying too much about the poor and not enough about abortion and gay marriage.
What Bible did that come from? Jesus in the Gospels repeatedly talks about poverty and social justice, yet never explicitly mentions either abortion or homosexuality. If you look at who has more closely emulated Jesus's life, Pope Benedict or your average nun, it's the nun hands down.
Since the papal crackdown on nuns, they have received an outpouring of support. "Nuns were approached by Catholics at Sunday liturgies across the country with a simple question: 'What can we do to help?' " The National Catholic Reporter recounted. It cited one parish where a declaration of support for nuns from the pulpit drew loud applause, and another that was filled with shouts like, "You go, girl!"
At least four petition drives are under way to support the nuns. One on Change.org has gathered 15,000 signatures. The headline for this column comes from an essay by Mary E. Hunt, a Catholic theologian who is developing a proposal for Catholics to redirect some contributions from local parishes to nuns.
"How dare they go after 57,000 dedicated women whose median age is well over 70 and who work tirelessly for a more just world?" Hunt wrote. "How dare the very men who preside over a church in utter disgrace due to sexual misconduct and cover-ups by bishops try to distract from their own problems by creating new ones for women religious?"
Sister Joan Chittister, a prominent Benedictine nun, said she had worried at first that nuns spend so much time with the poor that they would have no allies. She added that the flood of support had left her breathless.
"It's stunningly wonderful," she said. "You see generations of laypeople who know where the sisters are — in the streets, in the soup kitchens, anywhere where there's pain. They're with the dying, with the sick, and people know it.""
New York Times columnist NICK KRISTOF, "We Are All Nuns"
Even though I am an atheist now, Nuns are the best feature of Catholicism, and only part that I still respect today.

Indian parade member was volunteer
10:58am Monday 30th July 2012 in Sport
A member of the Olympics opening ceremony cast managed to take part in the athletes' parade alongside the India team.
The woman was one of the volunteers who had been part of the cast of the show and became "over-excited", according to Lord Coe, the London 2012 chairman.
He said: "She was a member of the cast who got slightly over-excited, we had suspected she was probably a member of the cast but she clearly started in that venue and we will be speaking to the Indian delegation about that.
"She shouldn't have been on the parade and we will look into that... the next time we have an opening ceremony."
The young woman, clearly dressed differently to the Indian team in a red shirt and blue trousers, walked alongside flag-bearer Sushil Kumar during the parade.
India's chef de mission P K Muralidharan Raja said: "She had no business to walk in with the Indian contingent and we are taking up the issue with the organisers.
"We don't know who she is and why she was allowed to walk in. It is a shame that she was with the athletes in the march past."

It's a new year and the Timberwolves are looking to start 2011 undefeated.
Minnesota Timberwolves (0-0) vs. New Jersey Nets (9-24)
Forget what you think you know about the Minnesota Timberwolves. Forget all of the losing, the disappointment and the unfulfilled potential. It's a new year. It's 2011 and the Wolves are ready to take the next step on their journey to the top of the Western Conference.
The first game of the year is against the New Jersey Nets, the only team that the Timberwolves swept last year. It's the perfect team for this situation and the Timberwolves are favored by 5 points (Accuscore predicts us as 69% favorites). The Nets, while not as bad as they were last season - they were 3-29 at this time last year - are still one of the league's worst teams with a roster that does not have a ton of talent.
Let's break down the matchups in the New Year's Day game:
The next Tim Duncan? Just like Darko is the next Wilt Chamberlain, I guess.
Darko Milicic vs. Brook Lopez
Darko was held out of practice on Thursday with a left hip contusion, and is still listed as day-to-day, so its not certain that he will start for the Timberwolves tonight. If Darko does not start, the Wolves could go with Nikola Pekovic, who is recently back from injury; Kosta Koufos; or they could go small with Kevin Love at the 5. Love does not match up horribly with Brook Lopez, who despite the height advantage, has poor mobility and is not likely to beat Love off of the dribble or to kill him with his post game.
If you type the names 'Brook Lopez' and 'Tim Duncan' into Google, there are plenty of articles comparing the two players or calling Lopez the "next Tim Duncan". I just don't see it. Sure, Lopez has solid offensive fundamentals. But Lopez is not a great rebounder - his rebounding numbers this season are the lowest of his career - and while Duncan was one of the best post defenders during his prime, Lopez is a poor defender who can block shots but cannot do much else.
Plus, Tim Duncan had only five fewer wins last season than Lopez has had in his entire career.
Winner: Darko Milicic
Former Big Ten Freshman of the Year vs. former Pac-10 Freshman of the Year.
Kevin Love vs. Kris Humphries
Former Gopher standout and current Kim Kardashian boy-toy Kris Humphries returns to Minnesota tonight as a starter for the New Jersey Nets. Although generally considered a selfish offensive player who struggles on defense, Humphries is having the best statistical season of his career, despite his scoring average decreasing quite dramatically. His rebounding rate has gone from 17.8 to 21.5, his shooting percentage is up to 53% and his assist rate is the highest that it has ever been during his NBA career.
But Humphries should have known that mediocrity follows around the Kardashian family. Kim and her Kardashian sisters, who have a mediocre reality show and mediocre modeling careers, only date mediocre athletes. Their current and former flames have only one All-Star appearance between them (Miles Austin was a 2009 Pro Bowl selection), and while Lamar Odom and Reggie Bush have won titles, neither one was a starter for those championship teams.
Humphries didn't become mediocre when he started dating Kim. The relationship just confirms his mediocrity.
Kevin Love, meanwhile, is the opposite of mediocre. Mediocre for Kevin Love is a 20/10 game. You'll see what I mean. Just watch what happens tonight.
Winner: Kevin Love
Both Joey Graham and Stephen Graham have been NBA starters this season. Maybe LeBron has a point about this whole "watered-down league" thing.
Michael Beasley vs. Stephen Graham
Stephen Graham has been in the league five years, and although he showed flashes with the Pacers a couple of years ago, he has not been anything but a fringe rotation player ever since. John Hollinger described him as "a fifth wing who can fill in at either shooting guard or small forward in the case of injury or fouls".
So, naturally, Graham is the starting small forward for the New Jersey Nets. There aren't many other options since the Nets traded away Terrence Williams. Travis Outlaw already starts. Quinton Ross and Sasha Vujacic aren't much better. Anthony Morrow hasn't played in 8 games. So, the Nets are left with Graham.
No wonder they are so desperate to get Carmelo Anthony.
The Timberwolves - who had similar wing problems last season - now have Michael Beasley and Martell Webster. Beasley has scored 30+ points 6 times this season and has averaged 27 points over the past 5 games. Both guys have struggled with turnovers this season, but they are also reliable scoring options who the Nets are going to have major problems trying to stop tonight.
In fact, I don't think they will be able to stop them tonight.
Winner: Michael Beasley
The biggest free-agent acquisition for Mikhail Prokhorov and the New Jersey Nets in 2010.
Wesley Johnson vs. Travis Outlaw
It was a bit of a let down, I'll admit. After hearing all about Mikhail Prokhorov, his billions of dollars and his nickname as the "Mutant Mark Cuban", I expected the Nets to make a bigger splash in free agency. For all their efforts to shed cap space, the Nets wound up with Travis Outlaw, Anthony Morrow, Jordan Farmar and Avery Johnson. No LeBron. No Bosh. No Stoudemire. Not even Carlos Boozer. No superstars wanted to come play with the Nets.
Travis Outlaw, the biggest acquisition for the Nets, has the skill set to be a quality player. At $7 million a year, however, the Nets need more than 10 points, 4 rebounds and 1 assist per game at less than 40% shooting. Wesley Johnson, on his rookie salary, has .5 less points, .9 less rebounds and 1.2 more assists more per game than Outlaw, while shooting 45% from the floor. Johnson - as PoorDick would tell you - is three years younger than Outlaw, too.
Yep, talk about a let down. Sorry, New Jersey.
Winner: Wesley Johnson
Remember when people thought Mark Cuban was foolish for trading Devin Harris for Jason Kidd? I wonder, after Harris has led his team to 21 wins over the last two seasons, if anyone still feels that way.
Luke Ridnour vs. Devin Harris
Devin Harris is likely the best player on the New Jersey Nets and is a reliable 17 points-7 assist guy who can blow past defenders, finish at the rim and make plays on offense. Unfortunately for Harris, other than Brook Lopez in the post (and perhaps Derrick Favors), he has very few reliable options on offense and his playmaking skills are counteracted by his own team.
This has started to take its toll on Harris. Harris was one of the best defensive players at his position when he was in Dallas, but in New Jersey, has been one of the worst mostly due to a lack of effort. He can pass the ball, but he's also become a ball-pounder in New Jersey, since his own playmaking is more reliable than the shots of guys like Stephen Graham and Travis Outlaw. It's not completely unreasonable to suggest that Harris is intentionally trying to play his way out of New Jersey.
Luke Ridnour, meanwhile, has started to discover the opposite is true in Minnesota. While Ridnour sometimes shoots the ball too often, he's had 6 assists or more in 9 of the last 12 games, including his second double-double of the season against New Orleans last week. Now that Beasley, Webster, Johnson, Love and the other Timberwolves are starting to gel on offense, Ridnour is trusting his teammates more often, and the results on the court have been very visible.
Winner: Luke Ridnour
This is what Nets fans have to look forward to...the Wolves can look forward to quite a bit more.
It's gonna be a good year in Minnesota. The Wolves start by taking on New Jersey and the next three games are against a KG-less Boston on the road, as well as the Bobcats and the injury-plagued Blazers at Target Center. A 4-0 start to the month is not out of the question.

Albany - - A plan to offer online services to business owners in Albany won't get the green light for another year.
New equipment is being installed to allow owners to pay their occupational taxes and renew their business licenses online. It won't be ready for this payment cycle, but starting December 1, businesses will be able to download the forms they need to mail in their renewal fees.
"We'll still be sending them out by mail the way we always have done in the past, but this is just in case they misplace it or they want to pull an extra copy," says Finance Director Kris Newton.
Businesses will begin getting their occupational tax bills next month. The deadline to pay license renewal fees is March 15th.

One of the more interesting personal numerology numbers is the personality number. This number is derived from your full birth name. The personality number is a reflection of how others see you. This may differ from who you really are as some people constantly put up a front hiding their true personality. The personality number gives a person some indication whether the rest of the world sees them as they really are.
Chances are, this number may not be a ray of sunshine for you. However, it might show you a side of your personality that you may need to work on.
This number is calculated similarly to your soul urge number, but instead of only looking at your vowels, this time you will remove the vowels and only count your consonants.
In other words, when calculating your personality number you take your full name and pull out the consonants only and assign a numerical number to each one of the consonants.
Master numbers 11 and 22 should be considered as 2 and 4, respectively.
You want to be seen as a leader or expert. You strive to appear as courageous, daring and one that hold high levels of creativity. Others may view you as overaggressive or reckless but you see yourself as just taking action.2
You strive to appear positive, upbeat and free from any misconceptions that other may have of you. You seek popularity and the approval of others. People see you as kind and helpful and sometimes you are taken advantage of. Some people will become jealous of you and try to bring you down.

You attempt to appear secure and stable, someone who is admired and looked up to. Your appearance matters greatly to you as you always want to look your best. You like to instruct and supervise others as it makes you look more organized and structured. However down inside you are insecure and fear rejection.
You appear free spirited and unconnected to responsibilities. You like to be seen as truthful and friendly. You are able to get things done rather easily sometimes by cheating the system this cause people to like and also dislike you.
You are very stable and take little risk. Hard work and following the rules is common practice with you. You are a family person and the love and support of your family is evident. Some may feel that it is only because of your family support that you have any stability in your life, that without your family you are lost.
You desire to be seen as smarter than the average person who has great knowledge that others only dream of. This keeps you from showing your true emotions and makes you appear secretive and antisocial.
You are a great pretender as you constantly make yourself appear more powerful than you really are. You are also charismatic and confident and to hope to get attention. Some may see you as materialistic and shallow.
You work hard to make others think you are intelligent and creative. You have a rather large ego that needs the attention and respect of others.
You portray yourself as knowledgeable and wise. You try to have the answer for any problem when in reality you crave the attention and respect of others. Some view you as arrogant and a show off.
You are kind, polite and respectful to others. You are well liked by others as you treat everyone equally and fairly.

CATEGORIES MoviesIRON. MAN. 3.
The third installment in the action-packed Marvel/Disney franchise arrives in theaters this Friday, and it's safe to say it'll come out as the weekend's iron-clad victor. Besides the fact that it's up against, well, nothing, "Iron Man 3" already had a blockbuster weekend overseas, pulling in $192 million -- that's more than "The Avengers" made in the same weekend last year.
In "Iron Man 3," Tony Stark (Robert Downey Jr.) is pitted against a ruthless enemy -- per usual. After the villain wreaks havoc on the billionaire's personal life, Stark jets off on a quest to discover who's responsible. The journey tests Iron Man at every turn, leaving him with nothing but his ingenuity to save himself and those he loves. (Pepper Potts perhaps?)
Shane Black ("Kiss Kiss, Bang Bang") takes over directing duties from Jon Favreau ("Iron Man" & "Iron Man 2"), while Gwyneth Paltrow reprises her role as right-hand woman, Potts. Don Cheadle is also back as James "Rhodey" Rhodes. Ben Kingsley and Guy Pearce also star.
OK, so maybe "Iron Man 3" isn't the only movie opening this weekend.
"The Iceman" also hits theaters in limited release on Friday. The thriller tells the true story of mob hitman Richard Kuklinski (Michael Shannon). At the time of his arrest in 1986, Kuklinski claimed to have killed more than 100 men for multiple crime families. On the surface, the hired gun appeared as a devoted father and loving husband, but, in reality, he was a ruthless murderer who hid his crimes from his clueless family. The movie chronicles Kuklinski's life, from his early years in the mob, to his final arrest. Winona Ryder, James Franco, Ray Liotta, Chris Evans, and Robert Davi also star.
"What Maisie Knew," starring Julianne Moore and Alexander Skarsgard, also opens in limited release this weekend.
Which weekend release is on your must-see list?

Personal Declaration
Section 8 Housing Assistance Payments Program (HAP) is a federally funded
program that provides assistance to very low income families, elderly,
handicapped, disabled person or other single person seeking to rent
affordable housing in the private market.
8 is a three-way contract, a triangle, between the Housing Authority (HA),
the Owner and the participant. The participant and HA sign a Voucher
Contract, the participant and owner sign the lease and the owner and HA sign
a Housing Assistance Payments Contract. These three documents outline the
responsibilities of each party.
Section 8 recipient pays a portion of their income towards the rent to their
landlord and the Housing Authority pays a portion to the landlord.
Section 8 recipient chooses their own unit and location and makes
application to the owner. The owner selects tenants according to their own
screening criteria.
goal of the Section 8 Program is to provide housing assistance to the
participant so they can concentrate on achieving economic self-sufficiency.
The Family Self-Sufficiency Unit is helping participants achieve this goal
by providing education and job skills training to eligible participants.
Frequent Questions

Participant Responsibilities
Participant Rules
Section 8 Housing Choice
Voucher Waiting List Questions
Is the Section 8
waiting list open for new applications?
No, the waiting list is closed and we are not accepting applications. Whenever the waiting list reopens an
advertisement appears in the local section of the Daily Press and New
Journal and Guide.
If I apply
(or applied) for Section 8 Housing, will my name be placed on the Public Housing Waiting List?
No, you must complete a separate application for public housing. We have
color coded Public Housing applications and they are now blue.
If I mailed my
application at the same time as someone else and they received an
appointment letter, will I receive one?
Not necessarily, you may have mailed your applications at the same time but
that doesn't mean they arrived here at the same time. Each application was
date and time stamped in the order it was received. Minutes and even
seconds can make the difference in time. Hundreds of applications were
received each day the waiting list was open. We received approximately
5,000 applications.
How long will I have
to wait for a Housing Choice Voucher if I applied during the open enrollment
period? The wait is determined
by the date and time your application was received, the number of applicants
on the waiting list, the amount of funds available and whether we need to
income target. Based on the current status of our waiting list, we estimate
the wait to be anywhere between 2 months and 5 years.
What is income
targeting? Income targeting is a
HUD requirement that Housing Authorities must serve 75% of its new
admissions from the extremely low income limit tables. If a Housing
Authority has not met this requirement, it must skip over applicants with
the higher incomes.
Are there any
exceptions for housing emergencies?
Unfortunately not, we must follow federal regulations and our Administrative
Plan when accepting applications and managing the waiting list. All
applications go through the same procedure and wait their turn on the
waiting list. Other agencies that may be of assistance are listed below.
What happens if my
name comes up to the top of the list and funds are available?
You will receive a letter scheduling you to attend an eligibility
interview. At the interview you will provide verification of your total
household income, assets, household composition, child care and possibly
medical expenses. If you are determined eligible you will be scheduled to
attend a briefing session to learn the program rules and if all information
remains the same, you will receive a Section 8 Housing Choice Voucher.

Dummerston, Vermont - July 29, 2011
The 9-1-1 call came into the Brattleboro Barracks around 11 am. A passing motorist spotted a body along this wooded stretch of road in Dummerston.
"At this point in time we can tell you we are investigating this as a suspicious death," says Maj. Ed Ledo of the Vermont State Police.
Investigators say they're leaning toward homicide. But they still don't know much about the victim aside from the fact she is a white female in her 30s to 40s.
"It's not a normal thing to have a body off the side of the road with nobody else around. And there's no indication of self-harm," says Maj. Ledo.
The state police mobile command center rolled onto the scene about 5 pm -- pulled from its post in Northern New Hampshire leaving the search for Celina Cass to help investigators in southern Vermont figure out who this woman is and how she may have died.
"We're going to document everything and we're just going to move this thing along at a slow pace and do it the right way," says Maj. Ledo.
And that included shutting down this heavily travelled road. Troopers diverted traffic and curious passers-by to protect the crime scene. Police would not confirm or deny if the victim had been shot and say they will continue to collect clues throughout the night.
Now police still have not determined the cause or manner of the victim's death. Her body is being transported to Burlington and waiting autopsy by the medical examiner. Those autopsy results are expected by mid to late afternoon tomorrow.

Like every year I had high hopes. I fantasied about checking the weather forecast every day in the morning paper only to see red. I prayed for long days on the beach where dips in the tepid Bothnia washed away the warm sand and soothed hot skin.
However like Mr Phelps in the pool, Tom and Pete from the 10m board and poor young Sarah Sjöström this summer promised much but has yet to deliver.
The good thing about clouds though is that some of them have silver linings and so as we still search for the first Swedish medalists to help us lift the sense of disappointment this washout weather has thrown over us there comes hope in the unlikely guise of the Systembolaget.
Even if we're still waiting for the first gold in the Olympics we don't need to wait for a gold medal beer very much longer. Tomorrow we've all got the chance to be winners when the monopoly releases the first batch of new beers since the summer break.
At 10.00am in the morning just under 7,000 bottles of North Coast Old Stock Ale go on sale for the price of 43,30SEK. My advice to you? Buy as many of them as you can carry.
Why, you may ask, should you go out and buy bottles of 11.7% barley wine from a brewery in Fort Bragg in California in the middle of the summer. Isn't that beery capitulation? A drinker's way of saying the weather gods have won?
Well no, not really. The beauty of Old Stock Ale from North Coast Brewing is that it is doesn't give a stuff if the sun shines or not. It doesn't care if it rains, snows or the earth cracks with drought because whatever the weather this beer should be safely tucked away from the elements in your cellar, maturing, morphing and languidly changing into something pretty incredible.
My vertical tasting of Old Stock Ale (2001-2012) in San Diego earlier this year remains one of the absolute highlights of my drinking career. To experience how a single beer can evolve over time, shed layers of flavours and generously welcome in new ones was nothing short of a revelation.
Old Stock Ale is a beer designed to be aged, so please, whatever you do, don't just buy a single bottle tomorrow. As I often advise buy a few, try one fresh and then (try to) hide the others away until the next Olympic Games in Brazil.
So what other beers are hitting the shelves in the morning? Here's the obligatory list (ripped from BeerSweden Forum courtesy of Uppdrucket):

+11782 Emelisse White Label Imperial Russian Stout Ardbeg Holland. 330ml 45,90SEK
Have already rambled on for far too long so I'm going to (attempt to) keep this short.
Zeven is a pretty sideways look at a saison from Swedish craft brewery Slottskällans. Turning it black is a bold move but one that for me didn't quite work.
Sierra Nevada Harvest Southern Hemisphere Harvest is a bit of a mouthful. Exactly as it should be, in your mouth. Must Buy!
Anything from Ska Brewing is likely to be, like the brewers themselves, bursting with fun and vitality. Their Decadent Imperial IPA however is more naughty than decadent.
Great Divide's 18th Anniversary Wood Aged Double IPA is a steal at under 100SEK. If you're a fan of vanilla tinted wood aged beers and not afraid of the oak monster then you really need to try a bottle. Must Buy!
Great to see Norway and Denmark represented this month. Lervig has been in the slipstream of the other Norwegian craft brewery for a long time but they're catching up fast with two solid beers. Recommended!
BrewDog's reworking of its iconic AB:04 – which ranks among many as the greatest beer the Scottish craft beer warriors has ever produced – is a little tamer than the original but it still shows the chilli who's boss by smothering the heat with smooth coffee, chocolate and vanilla. Must Buy!
The weather might make you sour so match your mood with a bottle of wild ale from the tiny French artisan brewery Thiriez. Must Buy! (if you're a sucker for sours that is…..)
Emilisse is producing beers that, like this place, are trying to right some of the wrongs of dire Dutch beers. Both are powerful, thick, boozy and demanding.
That's it. I'm off to feed the mosquitoes again. Have fun tomorrow wherever you are and whatever the weather!

HTC DROID Incredible
HTC DROID Incredible
HTC DROID Incredible
HTC DROID Incredible
The DROID Incredible is Verizon Wireless' latest Android smartphone, and as it stands, is my favorite Android device on the market today. From its large and crisp display to its zippy processor and killer Sense user interface, the phone was a pleasure to use from the moment I opened the box. There are a few issues with it, like its mediocre battery life, that leave me still wanting, but overall it's a device that will please consumers and corporate folks alike.
From its race-car inspired rear cover, to its red accents and large 3.7 inch 800 x 480 pixel
The 3.5mm headphone jack and power button are placed conveniently on the top of the phone for easy pocket access. The left-edge volume keys could have offered more feedback, but were conveniently placed in reach of my thumb during a phone call. The DROID Incredible is equipped with a micro-USB charging and data port, even though it looks a bit proprietary on first glance.
Just below the screen, there are four touch sensitive buttons. One is for returning to the home screen, one for accessing the menu. The other two handle back and search. I prefer hardware keys, since I noticed that I accidentally hit the back key a number of times, particularly during web surfing. Otherwise, the touch buttons worked well. Just below them there's an optical pad that can be depressed to make menu selections or snap a photo. It worked fine, but there were some instances where it should have been easier to press, like while taking an image for instance. The optical area also felt a bit small and a bigger surface would have made using it a bit easier.
The active matrix organic light emitting diode (AMOLED) display was incredibly colorful and bright in nearly every instance except direct sunlight. On a beautiful spring day in the park I found it a bit hard to read the screen, but on partly cloudy days I was able to view it just fine. The display appears dim when it's bright out, so to view it best in sunlight, I recommended turning it on to full brightness. Some have reported that the reds and oranges on the display appear over saturated, but the colors didn't bother me very much and I actually appreciated the way those colors popped off of the display.

The red speaker grill above the phone nicely complemented the metal red finish circling around the camera lens on the back of the device. The rear cover has three level ridges on it that HTC says it borrowed from the contours of a sports car. To me, they look more like the lines of a topographical map, but it's still unique nonetheless. The entire inside of the device, under the battery cover, is bright red in color. It's a cool feature, but again, pretty useless unless you like showing off your cherry red battery while changing out a microSD card.
Is HTC and Samsung the same company. It evens says HTC on the back of the phone . . .lol!!!
Ya got 'Samsung Incredible' in the beginning there listed. Not a Samsung device of course, but HTC.
Wow, no idea how we both missed that slip of the keyboard. Thanks for pointing it out.
"One issue with Android is that you can't create folders inside the main menu either, so the more applications you have, the more scrolling you'll be doing to find what you want."
I'm not sure what you mean by the main menu, but there is a way to create folders on the android. On the home screen press your finger and keep it till a menu pops up. You can them create a folder. To add items to the folder, just open it, and then add items to the home screen as you would normally do. Finally, to rename the folder, open it and long press the top bar.
Took me a while to figure all the above, but I have my apps organized in different folders.
Hi, does the Incredible support Bluetooth Voice Dialing Profile? Please say it does!
your both right, samsung makes the display, HTC (who made devices for alot of other people) makes the actual device.....

MALONE — Highway Superintendent Thomas Shanty is facing 10 more misconduct charges for allegedly using town employees and equipment for work at his house and camp.
He now faces a total of 11 counts of official misconduct.
Shanty was suspended with pay on May 21 following his initial misconduct arrest for allegedly using a town vehicle fueled by town-purchased gasoline to drive to Akwesasne more than a dozen times between 2011 and 2013 to buy cigarettes.
In the latest charges, prosecutors said Shanty:
• Ordered the Highway Department's welder/mechanic to work on jobs for private citizens while the employee was on duty and being paid by the town.
• Used gasoline purchased by the town for his personal use.
• Ordered a department employee to take materials out of a town truck and deliver them on town time to Shanty's home.
• Ordered an employee to use a town vehicle on town-paid time to take barrels from the County Highway Department and deliver them to Shanty's hunting camp.
• Ordered an employee to work on a carpentry project at Shanty's home on town time, using town-owned carpentry materials and equipment.
• Ordered an employee to use town money to buy a set of clippers at a cost of more than $100, which Shanty took home for his own use.
• Ordered an employee being paid by the town to do a personal welding project for Shanty during work hours.
• Ordered an employee to do personal plumbing work at Shanty's home, with the highway superintendent giving the person a ride to and from the job in a town-owned vehicle.
• Ordered an employee on town time to work on lawn-mower parts for Shanty's personal machine, using town-owned materials.
• Ordered equipment to replace fully functional Highway Department equipment, then took the replaced equipment home for his personal use.

Because we cannot possibly let Jay Cutler's NFC Title Game Saga go until after the team that defeated his has played in the Super Bowl, news broke today that Cutler received a painkiller shot during halftime of the NFC Championship in an attempt to play in the second half.
According to the Sun-Times, the Bears were ready to sit Cutler. However the QB wanted to give it a go and received the shot.
He returned to the field a few minutes after the rest of his teammates, and he led the offense on the opening series of the second half. But on a handoff to Forte, Cutler's knee buckled, and he left the game for good after that three-and-out series.
Does that change your perception on Jay Cutler? Or had you already forgotten about this a week ago?
On Monday, it was revealed that Cutler suffered a Grade II MCL tear, which could keep him sidelined for three to six weeks. Roughly the amount of time left that we'll still be hearing news about this.

News: Amy Winehouse's Home Robbed Of Valuables
Friday, Jan 30, 2009 9:00AM
Grammy-winning singer Amy Winehouse's London home has been burglarized while she was away on vacation.
Her home was robbed of many valuable items.
A burglar broke into Amy's London home and reportedly stole some valuable guitars and recording equipment. (Holly Scoop)
Despite the stolen items, the singer's rep claims she luckily kept one prized item.
"Amy is upset, of course. But everything can be replaced," her rep, Chris Goodman, tells People. "From her point of view, her favorite guitar is with her in St. Lucia. It was a special present, given her by [record label] Universal for winning the Grammy awards last year." A spokesman for the Metropolitan Police would not discuss what was stolen, but confirms, "We are investigating a burglary at an address in Camden at around 4 a.m. on Thursday. Inquiries are continuing." (People)
The incident reportedly took place Thursday (January 29) evening.
[Goodman] says Winehouse's neighbors spotted the burglars Thursday and called police. Officers found the front door kicked in. No arrests have been made. Winehouse shot to stardom with the multi-Grammy-winning album "Back to Black" in 2006 and has a fortune estimated by the Sunday Times at 10 million pounds ($15 million). (Associated Press)

3.4/5 rDev -8.6%
On tap at Mac's Northern Steamship Brewbar
A: Hazy golden color with one inch white unstable looking head
S: Smells pretty strongly of hops, mix between west coast frutiness and two hearted spicy/floral hop aroma. Apparently hopped with first harvest cascades. Left dainty lacing down the glass.
T: Very bitter and unbalanced at first but the malt came out a bit as the beer warmed. Flavor was a bit thin
M: Medium body with medium carbonation and a lingering finish.
D: Not a bad go at the american pale ale style, not as balanced and therefore drinkable as some of my favorites, but wasn't hard to finish.

It's hard for me not to wax nostalgic about this beer. It was one of my "a-ha" beers that first showed me what beer could be. That said, I have a clear and unabashed bias towards Brewjolais. Furthermore, I drank it years ago when my palate was not as accustomed to flavorful beer.
A: Amber with a light head that dissipated quickly. Moderate lacing down the glass.
S: Beautiful grapefruit and citrus, simply delicious fresh-hop character.
T: Same as the smell, hoppy, citrus, grapefruit, lightly malty and delicious.
M: Couldn't tell ya.
O: This beer changes from year to year, as they use the first harvest of the hops to brew it. When I had it, in 2008, it was simply outstanding.

Police are searching for a man who robbed a DeKalb County bank on Tuesday. Authorities say the man walked into the PNC Bank on Briarcliff Road carrying a semi-automatic rifle. He then jumped over the teller counter and began throwing money into a black canvas bag before fleeing. The robber is described as a black male in his late 30s to early 40s. He was wearing a black shirt, tan pants, a brown hat and sunglasses. Police say it appears he also had padding stuffed in his shirt. Anyone with information on the robbery is asked to call the DeKalb County Police Department at (770) 724-7890.

Here is a proposal to Brian Xanders and Josh McDaniels on how to approach this offseason to get better. Also I am going to predict a few things happening with certain coaches and players leaving.
1. Bobby Turner must stay at any cost, but Rick Dennison should be allowed to leave to either Houston or Washington.
With Dennison Leaving the Broncos need an o-line coach. Here's an idea. Demote Mike McCoy to QB Coach and Passing Game coordinator and hire Bill Callahan from the Jets to be O-Coordinator and running game coordinator. Many of you might balk as Callahan is the guy that failed with the Raiders and Nebraska Cornhuskers but he really is a great o-line coach. McCoy might be upset with the the demotion but he really wouldn't be doing anything differently than he is doing right now.
2. Target Smartly in Free Agency
First, I don't see us signing any of the big names like Wilfork, Seymour, Logan Mankins, etc. However I do think we can get d-line help. However here are two names I think we can look long and hard at for free agency and don't have to spend a fortune.
Justin Bannan DT Baltimore Ravens
Ryan Pickett NT Green Bay Packers
I don't know if Green Bay is willing to part with Pickett but I think it's a possibility with drafting Raji last year.
3. Pay Brandon Marshall
Even if you have to Franchise tag him, Brandon is a unique talent. Also I really like the emergence of Jabar Gaffney in the last game and Marshall, Royal and Gaffney can be a great 3 wr set.
4. Hit Homeruns in the draft.
Here is a mock, excluding any possible trade scenarios.
1st Round- Rolando McClain ILB Alabama
2nd Round- Dexter McCluster RB/WR/KR Mississippi
3rd Round- Lamarr Houston DT Texas-He was impressive last night
4th round-Mitch Petrus OG Arkansas
6th round-AJ Wallace CB Penn State
7th Round-Erik Cook C New Mexico
5. Sign and Trade Tony Scheffler
I'm sure Tony is a good guy but he doesn't block with the nastiness that we need from the TE position. He would be happier elsewhere and we can get good value. I know he is a RFA but I think we could work out a sign and trade with a team for perhaps a 2nd round pick or maybe a 4th and 5th rounder together.
6. Re-sign key players
Give Dumervil a James Harrison type contract. Lowball Kyle Orton and Chris Kuper. I bet they will give us the home team discount.
Also restructure Champ Bailey's contract for two things-He remains a Bronco for the rest of his career, eventually moving to Safety, and his deal is more cap friendly if the salary cap comes back into play
7. Food for Thought
Here are some other things I considered which are highly controversial but something to think about.
Could we trade DJ Williams for draft picks. For every great play he makes he seems to throw in a clunker too. He could have high value right now.
How about trading for Cribbs. He is a just a great football player, no matter how you utilize him.
What if Brandstater continues to develop. Do we sit Kyle Orton and get the young guy experience.
With so many underclassmen entering the draft, I think it would be a good year to stock up on draft picks.
I will defend Josh McDaniels until the day he is no longer coach.
I love my Broncos

From Batch One, Bottle no. 1250. Sampled on November 6, 2011. It pours a headless apple cider mahogany with a cloudy appearance. Malts creep up as soon as the cap is popped off with a sugar sweetness in the background. The body is nice and full and almost creamy. The taste is primarily malts with a sour hop bite kicking in at the end of a sip or two. I think this beer is more like a mild Barleywine that has been shelved for a few months rather than a Scottish Wee Heavy.

Wow Matt, you got a White Birch beer before me even! Really cold night, figured this was a good one to crack.
Pours no head, no carbonation, wtf! A hazy maroon purplish red color.
Nose is almost barleywine like, tons of sweet malts, reddish malts, caramel, lots of toffee, slight bready malts, molasses, various crystal malts, slight candy, and hint of chocolate even.
Taste starts sweet as expected, malts galore again, lots of caramel, molasses, candy, toffee, even a hint of chocolate powder and buttery biscuit. A bit of booze there just warming but not a lot. Slight earthy malts, various crystal malts, reddish malts but not a lot, hint of smoke I think?, sweet candy flavoring. I don't really get any hops either. I think the lack of carbonation really takes away from it as well. Finishes semi sweet, lots of reddish malts and caramel, toffee, and some bitterness finally coming through, and hint of booze.
Mouth is med to slightly heavier bodied, zero, and I mean ZERO carbonation!!!
Overall I'm disappointed Bill! What happened to the quality control? I remember the times you would hold bottles until they were ready for store delivery, and even grab bottles from the shelves of stores and make sure they were still good. The complete lack of carbonation is very hard to overcome, and the beer itself doesn't have a lot going for it. Not as complex as I hoped for what it was. Almost no hop bitterness, plenty of malts but more barleywine like than Scottish wee-heavy.

Bottled July 2011 Batch 1
Opens with barely a hiss, oh no. Pours a deep slightly cloudy orange/brown color with a minimal amount of bubbles that barely form a ring on top of the glass. Smell is sugary sweet; brown sugar, caramel, hints of smoke, apple cider, and no hops to be found. Taste is sweet but not overly so as suggested from the nose. Brown sugar, caramel, hints of smokey phenolic, hints of cider. Medium body, almost non existent carbonation, sweet sticky syrupy mouthfeel. Well, this doesn't taste half bad, but really needs some bubbles. I think the lack of carbonation ruins the mouthfeel and makes this taste and smell overly sweet.

Part of my search for the perfect Scotch Ale/Wee Heavy series. Got this in a BIF/trade. Pours a cloudy iced tea color into my Doulglas thistle glass. Minimal head, sublime lacing.
Aroma is too hop forward for a wee-heavy/scotch ale. But I proceed undaunted.
Ah. Well. Odd taste here. Not sure how to begin to describe this one. Lots of candied fruit, some Belgian yeast in play? Lots of residual malt and straight up sugar that hasn't been turned into alcohol yet.
Closing in on an American Barleywine with all this sugary hoppiness.
Bit of a sour cider taste at work here as well.I taste honey, apple, vinegar...
I'm not going to slam this brew like others have, because it's kind of a pleasant taste. BUT it's as far from a Scotch Ale/Wee Heavy as you can get. Other than a general maltiness. There are some killer aftertastes in this one. I'd recommend it if you're trying Barleywines.

Picked up a bottle of this at Julio's. Bottled in July 2011, Batch One, Bottle Count 1250. Unfortunately unimpressive. This is the seventh brewer apprentice ale and named Eorna Ceol which is barley music in Gaelic.
A - Poured into a Duvel tulip a flat crystal clear mahogany pour. So incredibly umpressive, I knew danger when I popped the cap and there was no noise. No head, no bubbles, no nothing.
S - Sweet carmel malts. Kinda earthy, light sweet fruits, maybe a hint of chocolate. No hops or bitterness, just sweetness.
T - Just well, an average wee heavy ale. More sweet carmely malts. Pretty one note....sweet malts. Oh, and alcohol.
M - This stuff is drinkable, but not enjoyable. Stuff is as flat as flat can be.
O - This probably WAS a good beer, but not anymore. Dont know if it was a bad bottle, bad bottling, something, but one cant excuse the incredibly lacking carbonation.

Pours a deep reddish brown, with very little head. Smells sweet, with slight notes of caramel and vanilla. No hops in the aroma. Taste is a bit bland, slightly sweet and without the expected malt and caramel that is typical for the style. The beer is very undercarbonated, which is not necessarily terrible for the style, but this is to the extreme. Overall this isn't a terrible beer and it's cool to try an apprentice's first offering, but I doubt I would buy this one again.

New York was a blast, but I'm happy to be at home preparing to watch the Super Bowl with DogGeeding sitting on my lap. I thought it was funny how it was snowing in Dallas, but when I got to … Continue reading
