A thought on the Grienke trade which I have not seen amongst the thousands of comments on here already: is it likely that we chose these Milwaukee players on the basis of recommendation from Ned Yost? Would he have been reasonably familiar with them during his days in Milwaukee? Or were they too far from his notice at the time?
Another question I want to explore, who in this trade would you say came over for the value of Yuni? I'm curious because when evaluating GMDM's trading ability we tend to examine an entire chain of trades if one player was flipped for another. So until last week, the return for Mike Macdougal was just Yuni. Now we packaged Yuni with Grienke and got these four guys in return, so what would we say we now have to show for Mac the Ninth?

Many modern toilets flush less than two gallons of water. Old toilets flush more than three times that amount. That's why a problem with an old commode can really hurt you financially.
Two weeks after a civic-minded plumber installed a toilet in a rent house for free, we decided to check and see if the new potty solved the problem.
Trey Goacher with Razorback Piping Systems took one look at this seven-and-a-half gallon dinosaur and immediately suspected that it was the cause of Jackie Syke's sky-high water bills.
"The best fix would probably be a new toilet because this one has got a crack in it right here and this flush valve is ancient and by the time you take the tank off you'll probably end up cracking it more and breaking it," explained Goacher back on April 2nd.
Goacher put in a new toilet that day and now, two weeks later, the water bill to the home has dropped from over 80 cubic feet a month to less than eight.
"I see it all the time," says Val Henry, a customer relations specialist with Central Arkansas Water. "And the first time I went out there I told her what was wrong. And she said...I don't know if it was that time or another time...but she said well the landlord is not going to do anything."
Henry says most high water bills are caused by toilets that are out of adjustment due to problems with the hardware inside the tank.
He says the problem gets trickier for renters like Jackie.
She didn't want to put a new toilet into a home she doesn't own, but if the landlord won't do it she gets stuck with an outrageous water bill.
"I don't know what can be done about it but I think somebody needs to step up to the plate and say the landlord is accountable because it is his property and his house," says Henry.
Now we contacted the landlord in this case and he has agreed to forgive six weeks worth of rent...about $700...to help Jackie pay her high water bills, which Central Arkansas Water did agree to lower.
If your toilet is making noise in between flushes, you too have a problem that could be costing you big bucks.

BOSTON (WKOW) -- Erika Bannock will never forget the day she met her new friend Amanda North. It was April 15, at the finish line of the Boston Marathon.
When the bombs when off, Erika was gravely wounded. She lost one leg and broke the other. As she lay on the sidewalk in agony, Erika remembers a woman with brown hair in a yellow sweater coming out of nowhere to help her.
"I do remember moving over and crawling over and reaching out to her because she was conscious," says Amanda.
When she saw Erika's lower left leg had been blown off, Amanda used her belt as a tourniquet. She stayed with Erika, and held her hand, until Erika was taken to the hospital. They had not exchanged names. Erika thought the woman who saved her life was called Joan from California.
50 days and 11 surgeries later, Erika was released from the hospital. She was the last survivor to leave. When she left, Erika left with a mission: to find Joan from California and thank her for saving her life.
With a little help from CNN, "Joan" from California was found and revealed as Amanda North. Within 24 hours, the two were set to meet. Erika's mother broke the good news.
"She said 'do you want to meet Joan tomorrow?,'" Erika recalled. "And I just started crying."
It was an emotional reunion; both women were a little nervous to meet the other, but both so thankful to see each other again. They exchanged gifts and together relived that terrible day.
"I had this horrible feeling I was going to die," Erika said. "Right away you came right up to me and you grabbed my hand and you told me you weren't going to let go and you didn't."
"I felt like there was a reason I was there," Amanda said. "I felt a compulsion to go over to you."
To Erika and her family, Amanda is a hero. But Amanda just wants to be known as a new friend for life.

These Sympathy Death poems are examples of Death poems about Sympathy. These are the best examples of Sympathy Death poems written by international PoetrySoup poets
A million times I've needed you
A million times I've cried
If love alone could have saved you
You never would have died
In life I loved you dearly
In death I love you still
In my heart you hold a place
No one can ever fill
It broke my heart to lose you
But you did not go alone
A part of me went with you
The day GOD called you home
Your precious memory is my keepsake
With which I'll never part
GOD has you safely in HIS keeping
But I have you forever in my heart
Pain is all I feel in my life,
For example, like being cut with a knife.
Since I was born,
Pain is all that's come to me.
I don't understand,
So I ask just one question, Lord Why Me?
I've been hurt in many ways,
And no one cares they just want to get paid.
Why does money have to cause so much pain?
So much pain, that I cry more than it rains.
Pain is what my heart is mostly full of,
Cause no one cares, but the man above.
We knew , it was if a moment stopped in time
hearing the news before most of the World did
He loved to fly his plane from Colorado to Monterey Bay
He was a avid golfer at Pebble Beach respected
He had loves and passions from many places
deciding to fly low through the overcast red sunset
Not only did he love music and inspire all
He loved his Plane , he will always remain a beautiful Soul
The next day it was confirmed ..all saddened
It was John Denver's plane that went down
Today in Pacific Grove stands the Memorial
So Kiss me and smile for me we will ~
always in loving memory
OH babe , do we hate you go ~
Inspired by ; contest in Music and Loss of an Artist
"Leaving on a Jet Plane "
My heart was in such pain
I felt like I was going to go insane
I just don't know what to do
And my eyes full of tears that distort my view
I fell to my knees and felt the urge
My muscle tighten and pin needles struck me like a surge
My body was warm and with feelings so confused
My mind felt sadness had fused
I could not conquer my fears
I just sat down and fell into tears
When some close to you passes on
It felt like a warmth has gone
So I raised my hand towards a box that was empty with no tissue
I first was embarrass and had a little bit of issue
All my friends hugged me and said sorry for your loss
So now I cry in my bed and toss
April 14, 2013
R.I.P. William Dale Eubanks
d. July 1, 2012, aged 68 yrs., Tennessee Ridge, Tennessee
Death came as no surprise
the first Sunday in July;
it claimed you, on a ridge in Tennessee,
with kin who took you in and waited with you
through the last hard days.
You kept what fears you had well hid,
did not betray with loud complaint
the fate you could not but know awaited.
A smile, a joke, a hug – exotic meals –
And genuine interest greeted all you met.
And you were, certainly, never boring
but well-traveled and smart
beyond the telling.
We'll miss your wit, your bright demeanor,
and will remember all you freely gave ---
and what you took from us
with your passing.
Gray is gray
Cold is cold
The beginning of winter
The winters hold....
Empty branches
Emptier hands
Living but dying
Without any plans
Breathing; beating....
The best that you can?!
This barren land....
Gray is gray
Cold is cold
The midst of winter
Your growing old
Drying rivers....
Drier eyes
Another day closer
To the end, of your time!?
To the cold, inside
The dead of winter
The death of a life
The death in a world
That is dying; they cry....
Gray is gray
Cold is cold
The end of winter
The winters, toll?!
Note: A retro repose from the
Winter of 06 & 07, I believe?
"'Love,' Always," John!:) ~
My secret cries are my pains I hide, hidden from the world to see.
Hidden so intense my soul became debility of weakness.
My heart hinders to collapse and deflates.
Completely of decay, secretly lessen for the amounts of importance.
Shedding everyday by natural process, my cries are easier to hide.
Hidden behind my diluted mask of faulty smiles, I portray when you are around.
As I wear with grace, deceiving you with an illusion of happiness.
I die a little more inside.
A cast away of pain, a cavity is what I became.
Over dosing the quantity heartbreak, so overwhelmed my heartaches. Now begin causing the feeling of great sorrow, never wanting to see tomorrows.
My secret cries of agony, a thought to die is where my truth lies.
Memories are influencing misery, emotionally and physically.
What hides behind my smile is vulnerability.
My cries vocalize, overflowing with tears burns my insides.
My heart is a furnace that burns for cremating my flesh of lies.
Keeps me feeling, as thou I am no longer alive.
Always walking through the crowd with my head up high, fore these feelings no one will ever find.
My secret cries therefore shall die when I die.
Then there will be no longer any secret cries to hide.
Nevertheless, until the day I leave this earth, my cries shall stay buried alive.
Dark clouds crowd the sky, diminishing light
Eternally, the Flower, Death covers it
Not a Soul is left to shiver, Death is night
Death controls the life of Man, all Lovers
Known as the Dark Angel he comes and goes
All fear him, for that he gives no do-overs
He steals life as the wind quietly blows
There is no remedy, not even time
Only God knows that the soul truly owes
The Soul lasts until the last, final chime
No hope, No desire, time to feed the Fire
You go to Hell, with Satan you will dine
You can't be saved with your Lover's desire
Your Heart, Body, and Soul are now Fire
My Dad, a pretty ordinary man,
Suddenly taken by a heart attack.
People are offering all that they can,
Cakes and hot casseroles we do not lack,
Hard to believe the whole town has our back.
Their kindness seems to be never ending
The new normal of mine just keeps bending,
Focus seems to be on us completely,
Thoughtfulness and support, all are sending,
Comments of sympathy made so sweetly.
Sorry for your loss, just how old was he,
Using this information did matter.
I reply he was almost eighty-three,
The mood changes, I hear idle chatter.
Suddenly I feel a great deal sadder,
Death is simply another part of life,
You should be grateful and not feel such strife.
He was old, did not suffer, I was told,
My heart bleeds after the cut by this knife.
Judging approval of death by age --- cold.
Written July 27, 2012
For Cyndi MacMillan's contest
"Do You Understand"
Won 3rd place
my heart breathes its last breath
Embraces its own death
Ready to be reborn
and made anew
Can't live a lie
Refuse to "do"
and I'll DIE....
Focus now on why I'll live
And never touch the sky.
I have to forget you
I have to reject you
But I will never love anyone
like I loved you.....
I heard you whisper
and you never knew it
I wiped the tears from your eyes
But you couldn't feel it
You're lost and you'll never find you
And neither will I
And I'm so sorry--
but I'm NOT.
I'll attempt to reset
Try to forget
But you know, I never will.
Be my dirty little secret
My very worst-kept secret
Sweet, smooth, beautiful poison
My infernal and endless attraction
towards complete and utter self-destruction
I fell in love with the devil
And it will take one heck of an angel
To save me from the likes of you....
My addiction
my confusion
my nightmare
my dream never to come true
Oh, I'll never forget the times
we never shared
I'll never forget
how you were never there
Always me, the stars, and tears
And I ask you,
what kind of life is THAT?
I have to face the facts
I don't know what happens now
but it happens without you.
The stains will always be there
the scars will never fade
But the memory of you----
it HAS to.
I could carry the torch forever
But it would only consume me
I can't cry another tear for you
Or I'll dry up completely
It doesn't affect you
and you never deserved me
You'll go on with your life, too
All, all alone
Because you'll only ever be in love
with you.

Olaf Bender is always halfway between the structures and moods of techno and electro, and the abstraction and roughness of sounds that keep his style away from the dance floor. He paints a sonic postcard that is simulatneously cool, organic, dark and overwhelming. After the warm reception from audiences and critics for "Death of a Typographer", he repeated his success in 2011 with "Symeta," a highly commendable album, which was highly placed on the lists of the best of 2011.

A sampling of the jokes:
"I just split up with my girlfriend, but like the Japanese say, 'There'll be another one floating by any minute now.' "
"Japan called me. They said 'maybe those jokes are a hit in the US, but over here, they're all sinking.' "
"What do the Japanese have in common with @howardstern? They're both radio active."
"Japan is really advanced. They don't go to the beach. The beach comes to them."
One can laugh about anything, but Gottfried shouldn't be surprised that a corporate sponsor would fire him for publicly joking about an unfolding tragedy. This is particularly true here because, as the AP notes, Aflac does 75% of its business in Japan.
But what's really shocking about those jokes isn't just how offensive they are, but how bad they are.

Eagles hit £73m jackpot in Premier League debut campaign
Updated 2:14pm Thursday 15th May 2014 in Sport
Figures have revealed Crystal Palace's first season back in the Premier League since 2005 earned the club at least £73.2million.
The Eagles were guaranteed a £52.2m share of TV money even before a ball had been kicked and having been broadcast live ten times throughout 2013-14, Palace also picked up an additional £8.6m.
And with £12.4m being banked for placing 11th in the final table, the Selhurst Park club ended up raking in a staggering £73,207,049 from TV companies and the Premier League.
But as impressive as those sums sound for a club who were in administration as recently as 2010, it is worth pointing out Palace were only 13th in the Premier League table of wealth.
Liverpool may have blown the title at Selhurst Park but they topped the pile with a combined income of £97,544,336 ahead of Man City (£96.5m), Chelsea (£94.1m) and Arsenal (£92.8m).
However, the figures do not include Palace's ticket revenues, sponsorships and individual commercial deals so the final income figures promise to be considerably higher than £73.2m.

CSS instead of using tables: Compatibility with Browsers
I know some browsers cannot display CSS properly (typically older versions of Internet Explorer). I am looking to use more CSS at my web site.
I have a web site that uses CSS. I am looking to build the site with more CSS for positioning purposes, as we currently use tables for positioning and layout. My question is if I go this 'step-further' with CSS will we be ignoring THE SAME browsers as we are at the moment?
Current web site:
The CSS is used to style the navigation bar:
The HTML files include a basic list of links only.
The CSS file positions this list to appear across the top of the page and down the left hand side and the list is styled to look good.
And the CSS is also used to format the text on the page.
This makes it easy to change the formatting on all pages.
New Web site:
We intend to go a 'step-further' and use CSS to position all content. Erasing the need for tables.
Will we be ignoring THE SAME browsers we are at the moment? Or do you recommend we keep using tables?

Depending on what CSS you're planning on using, you might find you need some hacks to get it to play nicely in IE6 and maybe IE7 as well.
If all you're doing is converting a table-based layout, that should be perfectly manageable.

This year's Nobel laureate in literature is an author who somehow manages to write books with brazenly political themes while living in a dictatorship. Mo Yan's latest novel, Pow! is a thinly veiled assault on the frayed moral fabric of that hyper-capitalist country known as Communist China.
The characters in Pow! do awful and disgusting things, most of them involving meat. The residents of Slaughterhouse Village love meat so much (be it donkey meat, Mongolian barbecue or quail teppanyaki) that they build a temple to it.
They fornicate in the presence of their Meat God. They also taint the meat they sell with poisonous preservatives and play all sorts of tricks on unwitting consumers to make more money from it.
We live in an age that scholars characterize as the primitive accumulation of capital, says the venal government boss of Slaughterhouse Village. Just what does that mean? Simply that people will make money by any means necessary, and that everyone's money is tainted by the blood of others.
Pow! illustrates how Communist Party bosses have helped create this new China, a country where moral behavior is no longer in fashion, as the leader of Slaughterhouse Village puts it. And yet Mo, the public intellectual, basically curls up into a ball when it comes to directly criticizing those bosses.
The wide-eyed innocent of Pow! is Luo Xiaotong. He is Mo's Candide, and his love of meat is the motivation that drives the story forward.
In Xiaotong's village, every conceivable kind of animal flesh is sold for human consumption. The locals leave the village's surrounding fields fallow as they buy and sell meat, injecting it with water so it weighs more, and with formaldehyde so that it lasts longer.
Mo has said that the novel draws heavily from his own childhood in rural China in the years after the Cultural Revolution and during the changes fostered by the market economic reforms of Deng Xiaoping.
In Pow!, Xiaotong's austere village life is gradually overwhelmed by an influx of capital, technology and a tectonic shift in values. But Mo's descriptions of these changes are rendered without any hint of sentimentality or nostalgia.
With the notable exception of Xiaotong's father, all the villagers allow themselves to be swept up by the new, corporate-style modernity. They even allow an especially bright, ruthless 10-year-old boy to run their meatpacking plant, under the tutelage of the corrupt boss Lao.
Mo the public figure is careful with words. But Mo the novelist slips past the censors by dressing up his cutting realism in absurd and fantastic clothing. In doing so, he's embracing a long tradition that stretches from Cervantes to the German novelist Gunter Grass.
I'm going to allow Mo the wiggle room he clearly needs because in the end his skill makes Pow! a wild, unpredictable ride — a work of demented and subversive genius.

If you were up Thursday morning watching the TODAY Show, you know Southwest Louisiana -- Carlyss, in particular -- was in the national spotlight since the fire department was featured in the "Wake Up with Al" series with Al Roker.Many of us feel as though we know Al Roker since we see him each morning on the TODAY Show. In our "I wanna know" segment, we speak to the beloved TODAY Show weatherman to find out what we want to know.
Clearly, it takes a lot of stamina for Al to participate in all the activities he does -- you saw it in Thursday's local broadcast -- helping to hold a charged fire hose, riding to the top of a ladder and clowning around during his morning visit to the Carlyss Fire Department.
You can't help but conclude that all that good-natured fun and happiness is genuine. Is he always like that?
Roker admits, "Not all the time. Nobody could possibly be. But you know, I think it's a lot easier to be in a good mood than a bad mood.""That's how we do it in Carlyss, ladies and gentlemen," he said during a demonstration on how to extinguish a riding mower engulfed in flames.
The rigors of his on-air routine often literally give him not a minute to spare.
As Al pops into the KPLC Sunrise show airing live, he shouts back to his TODAY assistant, "Am I a minute away?" A voice in the distance responds, "A minute twenty."
Plenty of time to surface on local television before the national cut-in. He said to Britney, John and Ben: "Just wanted to say 'hi.' You guys do a fantastic job and you're all very good looking. I really like your hair," he said to John. "Anchormen with that hair style. I love that."
John tells him, "You can stay here all day if you want."
Said Al, "I could, but then they'd yell at me," he said as he runs off to his cut-in for the national broadcast.
If he's stressed out or worn out, well, it seems you won't hear him complain.
"You know what? It's when you're not asked to do stuff and nobody cares that you're in a place that you're in trouble. So, this is fine," he said.
Al, on the fire ladder, is raised high above and still cutting up. He extends his hands over the crowd and yells, "My people! My people, my people!"
So, who inspired him and how does he define success?
"I was inspired by my family -- my mom, my dad. Willard Scott is a mentor of mine. Success is being happy and people, maybe, feeling a little bit better after you've left the room than before you came in. Your family is health and happy. I don't think you can ask for much more than that from success," said Roker.And if you haven't heard how he lost all that weight: "I had a gastric bypass and I exercise and try to eat right."
Any weight loss tricks or secrets?
"Yes, it's a secret formula. Eat less and exercise more," he said.
And if you weren't a beloved national weatherman, what would he be doing now? Said Al, "I would love to either be a chef or a nationally syndicated comic strip artist."

Hi guys,
I have established a nice collection of knives so far and am looking to expand. So far all of the knives I have are from Seki. I would like to try and get a model that is made in Golden and was wondering if there are particular models that are made in Golden (or is it a matter of my location - i.e. if purchased in Sydney, then they are shipped from Japan)?
I have absolutely nothing against the Japanese knives - they are, as we say in Aust. 'fan-bloody-tastic!', I would just like a Golden made one for the collection.
Any help would be appreciated. (sorry if it is a stupid question!)
__________________________________________________ _______________
My collection so far includes Endura 3 & 4, Delica 4, Caly 3, Salt, Tasman, Centofante III, Meerkat, Dragonfly and Rescue Blue.

4.03/5 rDev +6.1%
A: Big three/four finger head into a pint glass...slowed my pour to let it settle a bit. Airy tan head pops quickly into a half-inch high pillow, with some large webbing. Tons of carbonation streaking up through a murky bronze body.
S: Very interesting. Clearly Belgian yeast by the nose, but the malty character and slight diacetyl presence reek of Scotch ales. Very little hop character. I don't get much heather, but then again, I don't know what it's supposed to smell like.
T: Taste is alright--less Belgian and more Scotch than the nose would indicate, I think. The Belgian yeast comes out most in the middle of the sip, which starts slightly buttery and ends with some smoke and bitter malt. Just a touch boozy. Toward the end there's a vaguely grassy flavor that I'll attribute to the heather, even though it reminds me a bit of Poperings Hommelbier. Overall, a tasty, unique hybrid-ish style. Goes to show you the power of yeast in a recipe.
M: Pretty spot-on body. Good carbonation assists the otherwise incongruous yeast and malt combo. A bit chewy, as befits its somewhat cloudy appearance.
D: Not bad. Some Scotch ales can be too boozy for drinking in anything like a large volume, but this is right in my wheelhouse. Another good beer from Ommegang. Certainly an interesting style, and worth drinking at least once--though I'm not sure if it would place into my regular rotation if these were more widely available.

Poured into my Isle of Arran glass a deep mahagony brown with a fluffy one finger off white head,aromas of Belgian yeast (most know what that is),slight smoked meat,and brown sugar.Flavors start out somewhat dry in its herbalness and light smoke,the dark fruit and sweetish alcohol comes late and into the finish.A mix of Belgian yeast and Scottish peat maltines,not overly sweet or herbal,pretty darn good.

2.95/5 rDev -22.4%
Appearance – This is brown with orangish highlights around the edges and a soft, creamy, modest head.
Smell – There is a touch of scotch to this nose along with some wood and a hint of smokiness. I get some fruits, maybe mashed prunes, and a big raw sugar aroma. This is a sweet one.
Taste – The smoke is a bit bigger at the taste. It's not overpowering but if you don't like smoky beer don't buy this. The sugar turns to candy and somehow there's a zing of alcohol.
Mouthfeel – This doesn't rate medium-bodied and is a bit on the watery side.
Drinkability – I love this brewery but am unsure as to what they were trying to accomplish here. Is this supposed to be a light, easy-drinking Scottish Ale? Then how about smoothing things out and lose the smoke. This isn't a bad beer, just confusing.

Ommegang Cup O Kyndnes Scottish style ale at 6.6% alcohol. Brewed with Heather.
A- Pours a rich brown fluid that sparks a light tan head that falls to a creamy froth leaving spotty lacing.
S- Smell is of burnt malts and sweet oak, faint belgian yeast scents are noted.
T-M- Taste is a sweet yeasty mixture of dark toasted malts, creamy coffee, plums and a Belgian yeast strain coming in at the end. Mouthfeel is smooth and creamy with medium body and slightly slick on the tongue.
D- A overall good beer but one that boast only light showings of the brews actual title of a Scottish ale. I'd drink again but only to share the beer with someone.

Poured from a bottle into a pint glass. Initial pour is basic brown with a touch of red or amber mixed in. The brew is not clear, but it's hard to tell if it's hazy or just really dark. The foam that rises to the top is pretty light; sort of a a stack of off-white bubbles as opposed to a foamy head. Lacing is extremely light.
Big time roasty malts on the nose and not much else. It's a pleasant sort of aroma, not overbearing but certainly not very diverse.
Taste very much mirrors the smell. Fairly sweet and malty, mostly characteristic of the style, but there isn't much of that 'peat' flavor on the back side. Nothing in the way of smoke either. The malt is typical and seems to go well with rest of the brew but it is definitely the star of the brew.
Overall I did enjoy the brew. I might have had my standards set a bit high because of the quality that I have come to expect from Ommegang. The obvious Belgian yeast in this brew was interesting but almost served as a distraction from the style. It was good, don't get me wrong, but I think I prefer the traditional Scottish ale to this one.

A Belgian style Scotch ale sounds like an oxymoron. I think this one is.
In a pint glass the beer was a red amber color with a golden tan head.
Aroma of spice, honey/caramel, and tobacco.
Caramel taste, nutmeg, alcohol, a bit of hops. Not overwhelming.
Fairly sharp mouthfeel.
Good enough beer, not one I'd want a lot of.

A - Pours a clear red-tinged brown with tow fingers of thick, creamy head. Leaves a nice trail of lacing behind.
S - Aroma is slightly spicy smelling malts. I guess it is some heather I am smelling. There is also a subtle sweetness in the smell.
T - Malt character is actually somewhat light for a Scotch ale. There is abundant earthy bitterness that is balanced by a brightness from the spicing. Hops become more apparent on the finish. Finishes with a lingering earthiness.
M - Medium mouthfeel with lingering earthy dryness.
O - I did enjoy this, but the earthy taste became overwhelming after awhile. Even with the moderate abv, best to split this a few ways.

4.53/5 rDev +19.2%
Presentation: It was poured from a brown 750ml corked and caged bottle into a tulip glass. The label has a nice description but with no abv%. There is also a freshness date printed on the glass. ("PKG ON 08/10/10" and "BEST BY 08/2012")
Appearance: It looks dark in the glass and has a garnet red hue when held up to the light. This is capped off by a two to three finger head which has excellent retention. A small light tan layer of foam hangs on till the last sip. As I take each sip the head coats the glass with film of slick bubbles which brakes up and leaves cool lace patterns on the glass.
Smell: I get a lot of the smoked malt right up front with some mild fruity malt notes and classic Ommegang yeast notes underneath. Way off in the distance is a very faint hint of heather.
Taste/Palate: The flavor has a sweet malty character up front with fruity and yeasty notes. This is backed up with very firm smoky malt which covers up the light floral heather notes. Hops are distant and offer only light leafy herbal notes with light hop bitterness. This all comes by way of a smooth softly carbonated palate with a medium to full body.
Notes: When I think of Scottish Ales I think of smoky malts with rich complex sweetness and this one brings it! For me though, the heather was a bit distant but overall I enjoyed this lovely ale more than just a wee bit.

Corked and caged bottle pours a slightly hazed ruby chestnut body with a medium sized tan head that is thick and pillowy. Good retention and some lavish lacing in sheets and spiderwebs.
Aroma has some dark fruit esters from the Belgian yeast, molasses, herbal hops, and a hint of smoke.
Solid medium body has an appropriately subtle carbonation.
Taste has a toffee/molasses malty base accented by a hint of dark fruits, Belgian yeast, floral/herbal hops, and a prominent earthy smokiness that is much more evident in the taste than the aroma.
Tasty and very drinkable. Nice to see Ommegang do such a fine job with this style.

Omme bomber, caged and corked, $11.99 @ DeCicco's in Ardsley, NY.
Pour is darkest shades of amber, thick and frothy mocha head, reaches high, then falls to a nice film and leaves nice looking bands of thicker lacing.
Malted up nose, with a hint of mushroomy earthiness.
Malty and pleasing Scottish ale. Nutty, maple infused, more malt.
Decent take on the style, that doesn't really do a great deal for me. Respectable, quality, drinkable and all that, but not likely I'll be drinking too many more bottle of this stuff

4.33/5 rDev +13.9%
Appearance: 1/3 inch head, hazy, orange-brown in color, medium-high carbonation
Smell: peat, flowers, toasted malt, and small smokiness
Taste: caramel especially up front, big smoked wood, and peat.
Mouthfeel: medium-heavy bodied, smoky and sweet, moderate-high carbonation
Drinkability: There are some heavy smoke beer flavors going on here. An excellent beer, this rivals AleSmith as one of my favorite bombers in the style. An excellent and multi-layered beer, I am glad I have more than one bomber.

Glad to see this beer in DFW.
The beer pours a medium, slightly hazy brown color with a tan head. The aroma is very nice. I get some notes of dark fruit and caramel, as well as some alcohol - which is a bit surprising since this beer is only 6.6 percent.
The taste is more of the same, with a few welcome additions. I get some more dark fruit and caramel, but I also get some peet-smoked malt. The alcohol is present again in the flavor.
Medium mouthfeel and medium carbonation.

Poured into a Ommegang chalice a deep semiopaque ruby with a two finger off white head. Decent lacing down the glass. It's allergy season, so I can't get anything from my nose. The taste was a vigirous amount of carmeled malts with smoked earthy notes. And then the wild yeast kicks in. It's medium bodied and leaves a rather dry finish. This is an interesting belgian take on a scottish ale made in the US. When you put it like that, it's exactly how it tastes.

On-tap at the Porter Beer Bar in Atlanta.
Pours one shade from black with a half-finger tan head. The head recedes into a wispy layer on top leaving solid lacing.
Smells of faint dark malts with equal amounts of roasted and toasted malt flavors. Also present are very slight amounts of brown sugar and smoke.
Tastes very interesting. The first thing that comes to mind throughout the sip is burnt marshmallows. Moderately sweet roasted malt flavors with solid amounts of even sweeter toastiness kick things off and are joined almost immediately by smoke and what can only be described as marshmallows. The sweetness fades out a bit midway through the sip, allowing the mild burnt malt flavors and very slight hints of dark chocolate to carry through to a moderately bitter ending.
Mouthfeel is good. It's got a nice thickness with active carbonation.
Drinkability is OK. I finished my glass without a problem however I'm not sure about another.
Overall I wasn't expecting much from this beer given the aroma but the flavor profile is as unique as they come. Not a beer I could drink a lot of but it's well worth a shot.

(Served in a dimple mug)
A- This beer has a hazy pecan brown body with a sea of microbubbles pushing to the surface with a slightly sticky light tan meniscus of foam.
S- The pot caramel melanoidin aroma with nougat notes has some peat smoke hints in the finish.
T- The slightly bright tartness has a tang to it that blends with pot caramel and dry toffee and cardboard hints. There is a watery taste that grows as the beer warms and the finish has a smoky band-aid hint in the background that hangs on after each sip.
M- This beer has a medium mouthfeel with a full texture on the tongue and no alcohol heat.
O- The tangy flavor and malt with peat and band-aids is a bit off putting and the malt is nice full but a bit too dry to really show of the malt flavor.

Enjoyable for the style, and a great history of Belgian Scottish style. What the Scots brewed in Belgium.The yeast hlps. Mahogoney with off-white bubbly head that's big. Some smoke in the aroma, its electrical fire smoke. An easy mouthfeel, easy drinking. Understated yeast.

1 finger off-white head, dark hazy ruddy amber body. Retains and laces decently.
Slightly musty nose, some dark funk which seemed misplaced.
Apple, perhaps pear, with some scotchy malt but unexpectedly tart for a Scotch style. Some white grape. Some honey?
Average mouthfeel, undercarbonated.
Decent, but not great.

A- Corked and caged 750ml bottle. Pours a dark brownish color with a light tan head with good lacing and retention.
S- The aroma is nice and malty with some caramel, spices, hints of dark fruits and a Belgian yeast strain.
T- The taste like the aroma is deliciously malty up front with some caramel and spices with a yeasty finish.
M- The mouthfeel is light to medium bodied with a good amount of carbonation.
D- Overall, I enjoyed this beer. It has some nice mixture Scotch Ale characteristics with a Belgian twist. Worth a try!

Cup o' Kyndness pours a darker copper color. It's very clear, and has a strong garnet look with backlighting. It's topped with a light tan head that rises to nearly two fingers in height. It's slow to recede and leaves a moderate amount of sticky lace on the glass.
The nose is nothing short of interesting. It's a little on the weak side, but isn't bad. It kicks off with an interesting smoky, malty scent. The malts smell mostly caramel, but it's not very sweet smelling. Belgian yeast is noted. It smells alright, but seems a little at odds with the smoky scent. There's a hint of a spicy scent late. It's not bad, but doesn't add much. Alcohol is not much of a factor at all.
The flavor is about on-par with the nose. It does have a sturdy caramel malt base. It's a little sweet, but most of the sweetness is blunted by a strong smoky flavor. Belgian yeast is a little noticeable, but is also somewhat disguised. I don't mind the smoky flavor, but it doesn't seem to gel well with Belgian yeast. It's slightly herbal and leathery at the secondary level. Alcohol is virtually buried, and isn't noticeable at all. It finishes smoky.
Cup o' Kyndness has a body that's on the lighter side of medium. Carbonation is active, but isn't distracting. It needs a little more body to feel smooth, but it doesn't have a bad feel. Drinkability is somewhat average. The flavor's alright, but it grows tiresome. Finishing off an entire 750 will be a chore.
Brewery Ommegang has done a really nice job with some of its recent releases. Cup o' Kyndness is probably my least favorite of the bunch. The smoky flavor is just a little too strong, and seems a little weird playing off Belgian yeast. Just my take. The nose could use a little muscle. More body would be good. Eh. It's just alright. Worth a try? Yeah, if you're into smoky beer.

Picked up a large bottle from Abe's Cold Beer for about $11. It poured with a big tan head and a spicy chocolate aroma. There's a big dry, hoppy kick, surprisingly bitter for anything Belgian or Scottish. As it warms, more flavor rolls in with sweet cherry and leather over herbal spice and citrus rind. Overall a tasty and interesting beer. Check it out.

I'm going to throw this out there right now...trades are going to fuck this list bad.
I picked based on (what I thought) were team needs....so there is that. I am fully willing to defend (most) of
my picks :)
1. Nail Yakupov-Edmonton (It's Edmonton. They like forwards)
2. Murray- Columbus (They need D like woah)
3. Grigorenko-Montreal (He's from Quebec)
4. Dumba- N.Y. Islanders (See #2)
5. Rienhart- Toronto (See #2)
6. Galchenyuk– Anaheim (Someone who can score might be helpful, maybe)
7. Reilly– Minnesota (Although I honestly think this is going to get traded away for someone)
8. Forsberg – Carolina (I think he goes before 8, but I am trying to pick based on what teams need, and most everyone so far has a horrible D problem)
9. Faska– Winnipeg (My research says they need a big center. Here is one)
10. Trouba– Tampa Bay (see #2)
11. Pouliot– Washington (see #2)
12. Ceci- Buffalo (I'm really getting sick of defense)
13. Teravainen– Dallas (I'd almost like to leave this blank, because I hope every pick that Dallas ever has is a bust)
14. Girgensons– Calgary (They could really go O or D, but since everyone else is picking up D-men, I made this one easy on myself)
15. Collberg– Ottawa (half of their RFA/UFAs are centers so….center it is)
16. Vasilevski– Washington (Rumor has it that they desperately need a goalie)
17. Gaunce– San Jose (They dealt away their best scorer last season…yay us…and I think he is someone to look out for)
18. Lindholm– Chicago (I think they pick up a goalie in the 2nd round)
19. Dansk– Tampa Bay (Need a goalie badly, and I like him more than Subban)
20. Finn – Philadelphia (Seriously, see #2)
21. Aberg– Buffalo (They already got a D-man, so let's give them a winger!)
22. Wilson– Pittsburgh (They need a big winger. He is a big winger)
23. Matteau – Florida (They don't really need a lot, which is strange…)
24. Bystrom– Boston (See #2, although I hear they may be looking for a goalie lol)
25. Koekkoek - St. Louis (They've taken a lot of forwards in recent drafts and stuff)
26. Matheson– Vancouver (they need everything on their farm team, and since there are 100 D-men for every forward, they get a D-man)
27. Sisssons- Phoenix (They need a score, and Sissons has really picked up speed lately. Like him, hate the team lol…see #13)
28. Pearson– N.Y. Rangers (Running out of steam here…apparently they need someone to "help" Marion out, and similarly to Sissons, he has decided to make people notice him)
29. Skjei– N.J. Devils (Since they have Zids, obviously they need major help on D)
30. Winther– L.A. Kings (Struggled with scoring goals early in the season, I think this guy may be able to help with that in a few years)

Head by Crush Wine Shop this weekend for its Saturday Chef Series and taste the South Asian fare of new Oak Lawn restaurant Bengal Coast. You'll get five wine tastings, a glass of your favorite wine, and various vittles for $10. Good deal. I'll admit that I was a little leery of Bengal Coast and its Americanized menu. (Concept restaurants and jaded foodies typically don't mix.) But after several visits, I'm impressed. Has anyone else been yet?
6 comments on "Bengal Coast Gets Crushed"
Yes! I love Bengal Coast and am a huge fan of the chilled tuna wraps, among other items. It's a cool environment, too. I'm a foodie but this place rocks — the food quality is excellent.
I was not impressed. I liked the appetizers but the four entrees we tried did not have any flavor.
I've been and you can check out my review here:
I liked the atmosphere but was not super-impressed with the food. After my review was published, Bengal Coast's owner, Mark Brezinski, wrote me a very mature response in which he apologized for some of the problems with my experience and explained the shared bathroom concept. He is a stand-up guy, and because of his response I will try it again.
Just curious…what was the explanation of the shared bathroom concept?
The Bengal Coast is very well done – from the decor to the eclectic menu that has successfully packaged flavors, spices, colors, condiments and nuances from Bombay to Bangkok, from Phuket to Penang, from Kolkata to Kuala Lumpur and from the pristine beaches of Goa to the Tropical paradise that is Bali, within the context of a single repertoire – please check out my detailed review of Bengal Coast on my blog at http://foodbuddy.blogspot.com/2008/02/bengal-coast-in-dallas-nouvelle-pan.html
Bon Appetit!
I happen to be a jaded food junky and I was more than impressed. I tend to like my food on the spicey side so I let them know and they delivered. Excellent service. The bartender (who also took care of our table) was right on point. I'll go back.

Audit finds serious issues with Cooper County treasurer
An audit of Cooper County released Thursday showed serious issues with the county treasurer's office.
In the report, Missouri auditor Tom Schweich discovered the county's treasurer did not understand the computerized accounting system. Therefore, Stanley Serck paid a software provided $2,163 to enter the backlog of receipts, perform the backlog of bank reconciliations, and provide software training to the county treasurer.
After the initial training through, the treasurer was still not comfortable with the system so the county budgeted an additional $2,000 for data entry. As of June 2013, there were no receipts showing the county paid for the second training.
The audit also found the county transferred $14,148 from the Road and Bridge Trust Fund to the General Revenue Fund to reimburse that fund for election costs. That transfer of money is not allowable by law.
Overall, the audit gave the county a "fair" rating.
According to Schweich's office, the state auditor routinely audits counties that do not elect a county auditor.

George Fox Edges Men's Basketball With Late Three-pointer
News Release Date:
Saturday, January 12
Newberg, OR – The George Fox Bruins got a three-pointer from forward Sean Atkins with 10-seconds left in regulation to edge the Whitman Men's Basketball team 76 – 73 tonight at Miller Gymnasium, despite a 24 point 9 rebound effort from Whitman junior forward Ben Eisenhardt (Bainbridge Island, WA).
Ben Eisenhardt, Jr.
The loss drops the Missionaries to 3 – 3 in the NWC (3rd place at the time of posting) and 9 – 6 overall. The Bruins improve to 3 – 2 in conference (no lower than 2nd) and 7 – 6 on the season.
Eisenhardt hit two free-throws with 45.4 seconds remaining to tie the game at 73 – 73. George Fox came out of a timeout, ran its offense deep into the shot clock before finding Atkins in the corner who drained the jumper with a hand in his face. Whitman called timeout with 9-seconds showing on the clock. Point guard Josh Duckworth (Jr, Los Angeles, CA) couldn't get free for a shot on the perimeter and tried a pass to forward Drew Raher (Sr, San Francisco, CA) on the wing but the ball was deflected off of Raher with .5 seconds left in regulation. George Fox merely needed to inbound the ball to seal the victory.
Whitman trailed almost the entire game as the Bruins shot out of the gate, taking a double-digit advantage early in the first half, but the Missionaries chipped away and took the lead for the first time, 55 – 54, on two Eisenhardt free-throws with 12:58 remaining in the second half. "We showed great fight and heart getting back into the game after spotting George Fox 12 points to start", said Head Coach Eric Bridgeland.
Ryan Gilkey, Jr.
The game was another tough loss for the Whitties, who played a double-overtime game Tuesday night in Spokane, and signaled the end of a four-game road stint – the team's most grueling stretch of the season. Coach Bridgeland commented afterwards about the physical drain, "Overall, we are tired. Four road games in four different cities in nine days took its toll."
The Missionaries, now, come back to the Sherwood Center for some home cooking as they host Linfield and Willamette Friday and Saturday, respectively. Tip-off for both games is at 8 pm.
In addition to Eisenhardt's offensive effort tonight, Whitman got 16 from Duckworth, and 10 off the bench from junior forward Ryan Gilkey (Woodinville, WA). George Fox had three players in double-digits: A.J. Grant with 19, Atkins with 17 and Anthony Sanchez with 13.
Both teams took good care of the ball. The Missionaries had only 10 turnovers – the Bruins 9.

News about Osama Bin Laden being captured and killed brought closure to some. But they're many skeptics out there that don't believe he's actually gone.
The white house is debating whether or not to release pictures of Bin Laden's remains. There are fake pictures of Osama's remains circulating on the world wide web.
White House officials are saying the real photo maybe too gruesome to actually show. They say, it's more about being tasteful.
Now according to national media, The White House has two pictures of Bin Laden's remains. One set after his body was sent to a hangar in Afghanistan. And the second on the ship USS Vinson.
People are speculating that pictures could have been taken as President Obama and his staff watched the raid, of Bin Laden's home live in The Situation Room. As the white house continues to search for the best possible way to provide proof.
The white house administration also say the photo may enrage extremists even more. U.S. officials say a DNA matched identified Bin Laden's identity with 99.9-percent accuracy.

Short Pump brewery offers more than just beer
I am still (happily) thinking about my entire experience at Rock Bottom Restaurant and Brewery last week. Knowing nothing about this new brewery out of Denver, I was leery of brew-pub in the heart of Short Pump Town Center – this is not what I'd usually think of as a perfect fit, and yet, it was.
The restaurant and craft brewery opened in early June and features 10 beers made by female brewmaster Becky Hammond (pictured). This is the restaurant's second location in Virginia; the first is in Arlington. Behind glass walls, customers watched the beer brewing in massive steel barrels. For our up-and-coming beer region, it makes sense that Short Pump would jump on board.
As I walked up to the back of the mall near the comedy club, I was taken aback by what I saw: at the top of the stairs was an overflowing restaurant with outdoor seating, large umbrellas and dangling outdoor lights. > Read more.

Product Number: 002-579-0002
Suffice to say, this is a subculture that tends to involve a lot of brass in its aesthetics - and as you can see, so do the steampunk/gearpunk pipe designs of Nate King. Rather fitting to this deliberately anachronistic style, Nate's designed this complex creation around a basic lay-out reminiscent of the old Tyrolean sitters - the pipes once commonly sipped from in Bavarian beer-gardens. (The idea behind the extra-long, vertical stem was that you could sit the pipe down on a table, and lean over to take the occasional puff, keeping your hands free.) Even the chain that secures the threaded brass draft-hole plug to the brass plate of the rim is reminiscent of the chains and cords commonly found on Tyroleans to keep the parts of their often multi-section stems from being lost. The aircraft-grade aluminum making up most of the stem's length is a bit unusual, but then, it would have been pretty striking in a circa-1800s context as well, when aluminum was as precious a material as silver or gold. Of course, it likely also does a fine job of helping keep any smoke drawn through it that much cooler as well.
- Eric N. Squires

According to NESN the Texans are going to choose one of the two QB in the upcoming NFL Draft! Just wanted to see people's thoughts on one of these guys being the Texan's new QB! I posted part of the article below. Link is here: http://nesn.com/2014/02/report-texans-picking-johnny-manziel-or-blake-bortles-with-no-1-pick-in-nfl-draft/
"The Houston Texans are "initially leaning toward" selecting Texas A&M quarterback Johnny Manziel or Central Florida signal-caller Blake Bortles with the No. 1 overall pick in the 2014 NFL draft, according to former NFL scout Russ Lande. It seems a little early in the process for the Texans to have their minds made up, though.
Texans owner Bob McNair wants Manziel to be the pick, while new head coach Bill O'Brien is leaning toward Bortles — and trading down to pick later in the first round. (He must have learned from Bill Belichick during his days as the Patriots' offensive coordinator.)
O'Brien "is not sold that Manziel possesses the work ethic and intangibles necessary to be the face of a franchise," according to Lande. Manziel got into some trouble during his time with the Aggies. Known as a partier, Manziel was arrested in June 2012 and charged with disorderly conduct, failure to identify and possession of a fictitious driver's license."
