Bernstein: UN peacekeepers are now collaborating with the Haitian police and death squads, in a bloody purge of thousands of pro-democracy supporters of President Jean Bertrand Aristide. A spokesperson for the puppet government of Gerard Latortue stated after a raid on the Bel Air neighbourhood, "when we stormed the slum the bandits apparently had time to transport the weapons in[to] another slum." In other words, they didn't find anything. The characterization of pre-democracy activists as "bandits" and "terrorists" has been a mainstay of the U.S.- installed government after Aristide was overthrown by the U.S. [,Canada, and France]. The presence of battalions of former soldiers, including convicted death squad activists in the country only add to the bloody nature of the ongoing purge of the pro-democracy movement. This is a serious situation.
In a brazen public statement, a former leader of Haiti's military death squads gave Haitian authorities an ultimatum: to put Aristide supporters away, or, as he stated, "otherwise we'll operate our own operations to render them harmless." This is an ongoing bloodbath; the whole world is not watching. Joining us to talk about the breaking situation in Haiti is Kevin Pina; he's Flashpoints special correspondent in Port au Prince; and [to] Brian Concannon; he is an international human rights attorney, has worked with the international lawyers office in Port au Prince, worked with the victims of death squads from prior coups. I want to thank both of you for joining us on Flashpoints. It is a very serious situation; we've got UN peacekeepers collaborating with so-called Haitian police? This is rather extraordinary. Kevin, tell us as much as you can about the ongoing roundups, what's been taking place in the last 72 hours, who's been arrested, who's under attack, who's been killed, who's in hiding. Is Father Jean-Juste still alive?
Pina: Well, the situation worsens. Today I've received several frantic phone calls, today alone, from people claiming, not claiming, [that] these guys with black hoods who claim to be the Haitian National Police, forced their way into their homes, broke things in their homes, searching for God knows what. This happened to many, several people today alone. It seems as if the Haitian police, backed up by the UN peacekeepers, are arbitrarily entering homes, continuing to arbitrarily arrest individuals, who they consider to be associated with the Lavalas political party. In other ominous developments, I received several reports today from Cap Haitien, the second-largest city in Haiti, that members of the former military are actually openly patrolling with Chilean forces assigned to the United Nations. They are openly patrolling now with United Nations forces in the second largest city in Haiti.
Father Jean-Juste still remains incarcerated; he was visited again today by another priest friend of mine; his spirits are high, the government has yet to formally accuse him or formally bring a charge against him. He's not alone though, there are many other people who have been arbitrarily arrested, who are being incarcerated now without trial, without seeing a judge. The situation continues to worsen every day, and it seems as though they are looking to blame anybody but themselves for what happened on September 30th, when the Haitian police fired on unarmed demonstrators, which sparked this latest round of violence.
The UN commander, the Brazilian General Heleno, has accused John Kerry – that's how desperate they are to blame somebody else – for the violence saying that in a March 7th New York Times interview that he had encouraged supporters of Aristide, saying that he would have sent troops to protect him, and that Aristide supporters took that as a green light that if he's elected President then Aristide will be returned. Then you have the Gerard Latortue government attacking the government of South Africa, claiming that they're harbouring Aristide while he is organizing and orchestrating, and is behind the violence that broke out here in Haiti. Everyone, the Latortue government and the United Nations, are trying to blame everyone else, except look at their own responsibility for what has occurred since the police were allowed to fire on unarmed demonstrators September 30th.
Bernstein: What have we heard from the traditional human rights groups, Amnesty International, Human Rights Watch, United Nations human rights investigators? I would imagine that the United Nations would be taking a special interest here since we have the Brazilian General who is in charge of the UN peacekeeping troops, first of all, coming out against Kerry, throwing, as you say, Kerry into the mix, [and second of all,] collaborating on these sweeps through these neighbourhoods. It has really been equated now, it's a clear equation that if you are a supporter, if you are a part of the pro-democracy movement, of the beautiful Lavalas pro-democracy movement of President Jean Bertand Aristide, you are now considered a terrorist. I'm wondering, is anybody interested in the slaughter? I haven't heard it posed anywhere.
Pina: Well, Amnesty International let out a report today about the arrest of Father Jean-Juste. They are actually sending a delegation, which will arrive next Tuesday and will be here through November 14th. God knows why they haven't been speaking out louder against the arbitrary arrests, against arrests that obviously are in violation of the Haitian constitution. Today again the Haitian police, backed up by the United Nations, attempted to enter the slum of Bel Air and were repelled once again by the residents. This just continues and gets worse. We expect that tomorrow there will be a great escalation within the capital.
Bernstein: Kevin, this is a civil war, correct? What we are seeing now, not really a civil war, we are seeing a growing resistance movement coming out of what was a very, very large pro-democracy movement in support of, in that case, President Jean Bertrand Aristide. We are seeing a growing resistance, aren't we?
Pina: Daily the resistance is growing and its getting more and more tough in terms of its response to protecting and claiming the right to defend its communities. The Haitian police, with arbitrary arrests, the former military who were basically given the keys to the capital by the United Nations, they now parade through the streets and patrol the streets openly and with semi-automatic weapons. The United Nations' General Heleno seems to have enough forces to be able to back up the Haitian police in these arbitrary arrests, but he claims he doesn't have enough forces to stop the Haitian military from killing anybody who dares to utter Jean Bertrand Aristide's name in the capital today.
Bernstein: Also joining this discussion is Brian Concannon. He is a legal expert; worked with the international office of lawyers in Port au Prince, Haiti, protected, advised, counselled, and helped to represent victims of death squads of former U.S. supported coups. Brian Concannon, let's talk about the behaviour, what we're seeing happening in the streets in terms of the Latortue government. They obviously have a police force, there are these former military that are present, there are the UN peacekeeping forces, help us sort this out. What is legal for instance under the Haitian government and the Haitian constitution?
Concannon: Almost nothing. The Haitian constitution was thrown out the window on February 29th in the wake of President Aristide's departure. The government, even if you accept that it was a legitimate transitional government, which I don't, their mandate ended on June 1st when they should have had elections, and now they're not talking about elections for at least another fourteen, fifteen months from here. So, to begin with you have a completely unconstitutional government. The unconstitutional government was the one that invited the UN and of course they did not negotiate the terms of engagement with the UN that [were] supportive of democracy. And you have UN troops, which, as Kevin has mentioned, do not have the stomach to confront the rebels or anybody with a gun, but are very courageous in surrounding radio stations to help the arrest of three unarmed legislators. They're very courageous in going after John Kerry; they're very courageous about going into poor neighbourhoods and shooting people. And this is obviously an illegal situation for the UN to be in. This is an illegal situation for the Haitian police to be doing this.
And one of the worst things about it, you talked about how we've done a lot of work with the de Facto 1991-94 dictatorship, and to some extent we have gone back to those days, in the sense that you have paramilitary groups going down and mowing people down; you have the police doing some official killing [of] people. But also in some ways we're going also way far back beyond the de facto regime to the Duvalier dictatorships, because the de facto regime wouldn't dare go into a church and send masked men to drag out priests who are serving a meal to poor children. That was something that not even Baby Doc would have done and we have to go back to Papa Doc to do that. You didn't have in the de facto dictatorship; they didn't surround radio stations and pull Senators and deputies dragging out of them because they said the wrong thing. This is just such an obvious blatant slap in the face to the Haitian constitution, to the basic fundamental documents of human rights law; it's almost inconceivable that this type of thing could be happening in 2004.
Bernstein. Brian, you also have represented President Aristide in certain aspects since he was taken out of the country and essentially overthrown by the U.S. government. We're hearing now attacks on the government of South Africa, letting President Aristide use, as they say, the 'hospitality' of the South African government to plan this violent attack on the U.S. installed government. Has there been any response from President Aristide? What is your take on this attack?
Concannon: President Aristide has been laying low, as far as I can see, on all of these issues. There is, of course, no proof that he's been involved in any destabilizing activity in Haiti. In fact, President Mbeki had a forceful response saying that this was a complete fabrication and that there was absolutely no basis given. One of the most distressing aspects of what's going on lately is that Prime Minister Latortue can say that Aristide is backing these rebels and he's backing the violence without presenting any proof and all of the sudden its presented as gospel in the newspapers. In the same way, Prime Minister Latortue or the Minister of Justice Bernard Gousse can say that Lavalas partisans are killing police and that [there's] this "Operation Baghdad" stuff, again, with absolutely no proof, and that's printed in the papers. And, in contrast, the things that Kevin's been reporting to you about people who come talk to him about attacks in their houses, we have the same thing every day in the office, you have people coming in with extremely credible, consistent, and corroborated information. They can give you dates, they can tell who was killed, they can show you photos of who was killed, they can explain who did it, they can explain how it was done. That information will not get into the mainstream media but the Minister of Justice can say whatever unsubstantiated allegations he wants against either President Aristide or the pro-democracy movement in Haiti and all of the sudden that's front-page news.
Bernstein: I want to come back to you Kevin, in Port au Prince. There was an astoundingly troubling story that came out of Brazil from Martine Costes in Rio de Janeiro. This was on Saturday on I think it was the Saturday morning news edition. He talked about, the whole story was about how the Brazilian leadership in the UN peacekeeping forces in Haiti was something that the Brazilians were now proud of, that the General was welcomed, there was cheering from both soccer teams.I don't know what the heck they were talking about but he never mentioned a Haitian, he never talked to a Haitian, and the only reference to President Aristide was that Aristide gangs, roaming, had surfaced and were making the situation worse. Do you want to talk about, sort of the characterization of Aristide gangs and also what the situation really is because obviously he didn't have a clue, didn't care, wasn't there and was just reporting simply on, I guess, Brazil.
Pina: You know, it's interesting because General Augusto Heleno is the head of the UN peacekeeping mission here, a Brazilian General. As I said, again, the man takes absolutely no responsibility for allowing the Haitian police to have fired on unarmed demonstrators on September 30th, which started this latest round of violence. But more than that he seems to be quite comfortable allowing the former military to enter the capital and, again, the former military is now patrolling with Chilean forces in Cap Haitien, openly. You've got to remember that Brazil had a coup in 1964 and after that the Brazilian military pretty much ran that government and its politics for, more than 15 years, almost 18 years. And of course those were days when the Brazilian military was used by the wealthy elite there to impose their will on the population, to impose their program for so-called progress in Brazil and those were horrible days of arbitrary arrest, torture and murder, which were seen as necessary evils by the Brazilian military.
It seems as though General Heleno is nostalgic for those days [through] the way in which he is clearly accommodating Haiti's former military. And he must have known, anyone who does any cursory study of Haitian history would know that by allowing the Haitian military to enter the scene in any capacity would enrage the majority of the population who withstood and were brutalized after that 1991 military coup against Aristide after he was elected President the first time in 1990. It's just outrageous that either these people aren't doing their history and/or Heleno longs for those good old days in Brazil. It's fascinating to watch these guys on the ground here.
Concannon: Let me add something, because I think his [Kevin's] criticism may actually be a little bit too diplomatic. In the words of General Heleno himself, this was a quote on the BBC, he said "we must kill the bandits but it will have to be the bandits only, not everybody." And at the beginning of your show you mentioned how "bandits" is a code-word for being poor, black and a government supporter. And so the UN involvement in this is not merely allowing things to happen; they are affirmatively supporting it; they are providing back-up to people when they go into these poor neighbourhoods, they secured the perimeter of the radio station when they made that arrest. They're much more than negligently letting these things happen. They are playing an active role.
Bernstein: And we're hearing scary figures. We're hearing reports that perhaps the Latortue government is saying that 25,000 people either have to be purged or exiled for them to begin, to sort of, get rid of the pro-democracy movement and, if you will, start from scratch, then we'll have an election or something like that. So, we're talking about this government talking in large numbers of people being hurt, jailed, beaten, killed, or exiled. Kevin, before we say goodbye I want you to just give us a sense e of what people are saying on the street, what is the feeling at the grassroots level, in terms of, it does appear that they're given no chance but to resist.
Pina: Well, the witch-hunt continues. The climate of witch-hunt against anyone associated with Lavalas continues, and yes, people feel as if they've been cornered and they have nowhere to turn except to defend themselves. And, time and time again I hear people say 'you know, we're going to continue our protests, we're going to continue to demand that the President we elected return, and if they're going to continue the violence against us we're going to defend ourselves.' I keep hearing that day in and day out and that's why I say tomorrow I think is going to be a very interesting day here in Port au Prince, because I think the gloves are off, and tomorrow is going to be a day of reckoning in many ways.
Concannon: Let me add that Father Jean-Juste is a pivotal figure in this, because he was someone who was always advocating resistance to tyranny, but he always advocated in a non-violent way. He was always pushing saying 'no, we're not going to use their tactics, their strategies.' But now you have someone like him who's been one of the most open and prominent supporters of non-violence, and he's a very popular person; he's known in Haiti, he's known in the US, he's got all of this international prestige, and if they can go after him, then it's very hard to make the argument to anybody in Haiti that you should eschew violence.
Bernstein: Final words, Kevin.
Pina: You know, it's like I said yesterday, I think it's important for me to state again, which is [that] nothing on the scale or the level that we're seeing done against Lavalas today was ever done to the so-called opposition to Aristide, that had accused him of being a dictator. And, again, it's almost as though their accusations of dictatorship against Aristide have become their own self-fulfilling prophecy here in Haiti today.

A new twist in the schools consolidation drama took place Tuesday after a Shelby County attorney said residency requirements would mean Memphis City Schools employees who live outside the county would have to move to the county post merger.
In an opinion to the county commission, attorney Kelly Rayne said MCS employees would have to follow the residency requirement in the county charter.
She said commissioners would have the option to change the charter, either by removing the requirement or allowing MCS employees to be grandfathered in.
Commissioner Terry Roland said the policy should be uniform, either change the requirement for all county employees or give MCS employees nine months after consolidation to move to Shelby County.

LAUSANNE, Switzerland Ś The head of SwitzerlandÆs anti-doping laboratory described as ōnonsenseö on Friday claims by U.S. Anti-Doping Agency CEO Travis Tygart that he helped Lance Armstrong avoid being caught for doping.
Lab director Martial Saugy called a news conference to answer accusations by Tygart that he provided Armstrong with information on how to avoid detection for use of the blood-boosting drug EPO.
Tygart told the U.S. television program ō60 Minutes Sportsö on Wednesday that Saugy acknowledged to him that he gave Armstrong and his team manager, Johan Bruyneel ōthe keys to beating EPO testsö before the 2002 Tour de France.
ōThe answer is clear: ItÆs æNoÆ,ö Saugy said Friday, adding he was ōsurprisedö by the claim. ōI would like to ask him (Tygart), really personally, why did he say that, because personally it was not the case.ö
Saugy suggested that Tygart had ōdeficienciesö in his recollection of their discussion in Moscow in 2010 soon after U.S. federal investigators opened a probe into Armstrong and doping in cycling.
ōI donÆt really understand the interpretation on that part of the discussion,ö Saugy later told The Associated Press in an interview. ōFor me, it is a nonsense.ö
In the TV program, Tygart said he asked Saugy: ōDid you give Lance Armstrong and Johan Bruyneel the keys to beating EPO tests?ö
ōAnd he nodded to say æyes,öÆ Tygart said. ōHe explained to them, just the two of them. As far as I know, itÆs unprecedented. ItÆs completely wrong to meet an athlete with a suspect result and explain to him how the test works.ö
Saugy acknowledged his respect for Tygart, with whom he worked with on a previous case involving ArmstrongÆs former teammate Tyler Hamilton. TygartÆs determination to build a case against Armstrong for using EPO and other performance-enhancing drugs was crucial after the federal case was dropped early last year.
Armstrong was stripped of his seven Tour de France titles and banned from the sport for life after USADA released a report last year detailing widespread doping by the American rider and his teams.
ōTravis Tygart is a key person in the fight against doping,ö Saugy said, before adding, ōHe knows the rules. He knows we must be transparent in order to respect the right of the defense. We need also to respect all the other athletes.ö
Saugy said he followed the International Cycling UnionÆs request to meet with Armstrong in Luxembourg before the 2002 Tour started.
The Swiss official denied suggestions he made an error or was naive in meeting the rider to discuss anti-doping strategy Ś a decision now criticized by Tygart and World Anti-Doping Agency officials as a clear conflict of interest.
ōI have absolutely no regret. I would repeat it,ö Saugy told The AP, explaining that Armstrong and other riders at that time had a right to information about false positive results in the relatively new EPO test. ōThey wanted to know what is the basis of the fight against doping.ö
Armstrong will give his first television interview since the sanctions were imposed when he speaks with Oprah Winfrey next Thursday.

Seiko ANA Cal. 7T92 "Happy Flight" 2008
Resizing the bracelet was a piece of cake
Using the supplied pin pusher (with ANA logo texture). The collar of the link pin is actually a small spring. The link pin can be easily pushed out using the supplied. tool. I resized the watch on the folding table of the 747 and removed the links in a matter of minutes.
The first link pin is removed and the bracelet is separated
Using the pin pusher with the All Nippon Airways stripes to push out the second link pin
After 5 to 10 minutes, the watch is perfectly resized. One has to be careful though not to lose the little springs that serve as a collar in the middle link part and retain the link pin in position. Despite that, a very clever and easy to use mechanism. I had never seen it before on a SEIKO. Maybe it has been designed for this watch sold on board of ANA so resizing and wearing it instantly was possible

Out of curiosity, I looked up the Yankees playoff record the last nine years (since we've been in the playoffs, basically). Against the Twins, they're 3-0 in series. Against everybody else, they're 3-6. Two of those were last year when they won the World Series. I broke down their record of 2002-2009 a few more ways after the jump. FYI, I really didn't like what I ended up typing.
Playoff summaries:
2002: Lost ALDS to Angels 3-1
2003: Beat Twins 3-1, Beat Red Sox 4-3, Lost to Marlins 4-2
2004: Beat Twins 3-1, Lost to Red Sox 4-3
2005: Lost ALDS to Angels 3-2
2006: Lost ALDS to Tigers 3-1
2007: Lost ALDS to Indians 3-1
2008: Missed playoffs
2009: Beat Twins 3-0, Beat Angels 4-2, Beat Phillies 4-2
Overall game record:
2002: 1-3
2003: 9-8
2004: 7-4
2005: 2-3
2006: 1-3
2007: 1-3
2009: 11-4
Total record in games: 32-28
Record against Twins: 9-2
Record against everybody else: 23-26
By division:
vs. AL West: 1-2 in series (only against Angels), 7-8 in games
vs. AL Central, Twins only: 3-0 in series, 9-2 in games (10-2 after tonight)
vs. AL Central, everybody else: 0-2 in series, 2-6 in games
vs. AL East: 1-1 in series (only against Red Sox), 7-7 in games
vs. NL: 1-1 in series, 6-6 in games
By round:
ALDS: 3-0 vs. Twins
ALDS: 0-4 vs. everybody else
Maybe this is misleading because by chance the Yankees have had three of their best four teams of the decade in 2003, 2004 and 2009 (the 4th being 2002, at least by regular season). But when you think about it, other than the World Series last year, the Yankees between 2002-2008 in the playoffs were no different than the Twins except against the Twins, when they were essentially world-beaters. Then last year they broke out again and won it all. Think about that. Between 2002-2008 the Yankees got some grief for not winning the world series, but they weren't considered abject playoff failures as the Twins essentially have been. They never advanced past the first round in those years unless they played Minnesota. Had they not played the Twins, they very well might have been considered abject playoff failures. Joe Torre can probably thank the Twins for a few extra years managing in New York, as can his staff of those days. I wish I had quick access to their record when leading and trailing in playoff games after 6 innings in those years, but I just put this together quickly, so I don't know where to find that. Anyway, even in the years the Twins were first-round fodder for the Yankees, the Yankees did about what would be expected of a playoff team, going 2-1 in the second round, and 1-1 in the round after that.
I think Aaron Gleeman broke down the Twins regular-season woes against the Yankees under Gardenhire pretty well when we played at New York earlier in the season. If we get swept this year in the playoffs, I don't know what else there would be to say in Gardenhire's defense. This is his third time having home field advantage for a series. The other two times he won a total of one game, if I remember correctly. This might be okay if he managed to pull an occasional upset over the higher seed, but he's 1-4 as the underdog, with the lone win coming 3-2 over the A's in 2002.
I know managers that have won 6 division titles aren't just sitting around looking for work, but at what point do we ask if the Twins as an organization are content being competitive in the regular season or if they really want to try to advance in the playoffs? There have been plenty of excuses to use in previous seasons, but I think if we lose this year to the Yankees, the trends become too difficult to ignore.

This is your standard corner store, but there is an absolute ton of beer in here. So much stuff that it will take you a while to get a view of it all. And I wouldn't be surprised if you find something in here that you haven't seen yet somewhere else. Service is pretty basic for a corner store kind of thing really, but someone clearly knows what they are doing. With so many options to choose from, it's worth a shot really.

Best beer selection in San Francisco, hands down. A hidden gem, a diamond in the Panhandle. I'm not joking they had literally like 7 Ninkasi brews, you know, the Sumerian goddess of beer? Not to mention the easy 100+ different excellent beers they have at any given time. Anyways, I love these guys, they run a great store and they are always friendly and interesting to converse with. They also own a great restaurant across the street, Zyryab. I recommend the hummus and the falafel, both delicious!
P.S. Did I mention that they have an online menu: http://www.newstarell.com/beer.htm ? Well, they do, and they might just ship you beers if you ask nicely enough! Stellar.
P.P.S. The website in no way reflects the actual selection, there is soooo much more than what is listed! Just wanted to make that clear.

A- Typical corner store in many respects, though it's a bit bigger than most, with fridges running the whole length of the left wall. A bit cramped, very utilitarian.
Q-New Star has a large selection, and can be a great place to fin limited releases months after the fact. However, keep in mind that the storage conditions are not always optimum. I wouldn't trust many lighter beer styles from here, unless they are popular, high volume items. They still had Valley Brewing Company's Uberhoppy about a year and a half after the brewery had stopped producing it.
Service-Good enough. I've never been offered help, but then again I've never asked. It's primarily a corner store, so the guys behind the counter are mostly preoccupied with the cash register and stocking chips, sodas, etc.
Selection-Much better selection than your average corner store, but I wouldn't count on them to get every new limited release.

For years I've driven past New Star-Ell as I zip down Divisadero. The "Kegs" sign in the window always caught my attention along with their neon signs advertising various craft brewers (macros, too).
I'd usually sneak a glance inside and wonder what's in store. Coolers were certainly visible, lining most of the left hand-side wall but from the road, who knows what they stock?
Finally, last week, I walked in...WOW. The selection of craft brews from around the US (heavy on the PacNW/California beer) and the world was impressive. Don't be fooled by the convenience store appearance, the beer selection here packs a wallop (and yes, they have Victory Hop Wallop). Whether you're chasing down the California greats, are in an east coast mood, looking for a Kolsch, British Bitter, or Belgian Strong Ales, you'll find something to suit your tastes.
Interaction with the cashier, though brief, was pleasant. He asked about the beers I'd picked and made a little small talk about his inventory.
Pricing is reasonable, slightly of the "convenience store" price level.

New Star-Ell looks like a typical corner store until you check out the beer (or booze) selection. They have a great Belgian selection and a pretty decent Cali Craft section (as well as some other interesting US Craft beer selection.). Though they do mark up the price they are on the lower end on a little bit pricy. Last time I went in I got a year old Victory Wild Devil for $11.99 (not bad, but can be found for $10), however it was stored correctly and was delicious. The service... well the person I talked to wasn't that into beer so, for now, a lower rating (though they were still pretty nice.)

Great liquor store with a good variety of beers. They've got something for everybody- not just a specialty shop or an overpriced joint charging too much for a 12-pack of Tecate. They have a lot of 22 oz. single bottles for sale and everything is really fairly priced. A lot of the guys there have tried everything, too, so you can usually have a quick chat about what's on stock.
I also usually order my kegs here. They usually have a pretty good selection of standby kegs, but they claim they can "get anything" with a few days notice. I paid about $140 for a 1/2 bbl of Lagunitas Farmhouse Saison, which I think is a pretty good price.
I'm not on first-name terms with anyone there but they always treat me pretty well.
It should also be mentioned that their wine and booze wall is pretty massive, too.

This is a great spot to get bottles and is often overlooked and not mentioned much on BA threads. I was recommended to go here by the bartenders of Toronado. It was the first time I've heard of this place. Looks like your standard liquor store, but the selection is way above standard when it comes to beer. Many selections of craft brew, belgians, and other imports.
For those who are out of town and if you are at Toronado, this is place is close by if looking for bottles. They have a website too at which you can peek at their current selection:
Prices are competitive too. I found them to be a dollar or two cheaper vs. other popular local bottles shops.

Went in here on my rambling return from Toronado today. Nice selection, including green flash, ommegang, new belgium, stone, humbolt, many belgians, st. bernardus 60th, anchor special ale, speakeasy, full sail, alaskan, others. most of the beer is in the rear left part of the store, and 5 of the 6 racks are in coolers. Kind of seems like a place for winos to get their drinks, but surprizingly up-class in their beer selection. Prices very good, i thought. didnt end up buying much because i can't take much home with me, but i bought a Hemp beer as a novelty since i was so near the Haight.
