4.13/5 rDev +7%
Appearance: a very deep almost blood red color. slightly hazy but mostly clear. small tannish head that leaves nothing behind
Smell: hop strong, citrus mainly with some piney. caramelly malts.
Taste: follows the nose but kicks it up in complexity. citrus and pine hops, caramel malts, a nice toastiness from the toasted malts. and occasionally some pilsner malts come through
Mouthfeel: pretty strong lingering bitterness, but overall a nice medium body
Overall: a solid beer. nice complexity, although i looked for the toasty malts to play a stronger role in the picture. i'd like to try this beers little sister and see how they compare

On tap at the Arbor Brew Pub.
Poured a medium and hazy amber color with a small sized off white head. Aromas of floral, light roast, citrus and some pine. Tastes of floral, grapefruit, oranges, and some caramel. Lacing left on the glass.

Wow this wasnt on tap at the brewpub in the spring what a great find here on tap in Buffalo.Poured a deep deep amber with a thinner but well retained slight off white head leaving a few rings of lace behind as it settled.Aromas of brown sugar and earth mainly the sweetnes is there but kept in check by a nice earthy profile.Flavors start out an the sweetish dark fruit and brown sugar side but it melds nicley into the dryer more earthy finsih.A bigger double ESB with bigger malty tones the hops come more in a backup role.still a nice ale and a very good find in Buffalo.

3.73/5 rDev -3.4%
Arrived with a perfect pour. A creamy tan head over a dark amber-brown body. The head left great lace and had decent retention. Standard Snapper aromas of floral hops and caramel malt. A big spicy and citric hop bitterness, but some sweet caramel malt flavor is present in the background. Warming alcohol presence is noticeable, but not overwhelming. Medium to full bodied. Light carbonation. A slight crisp bitterness throughout and lingers on in the aftertaste.
This is a big beerconsider it the Red Snapper on hop-based steroids. I must agree with Nomad that it loses some of the Red Snappers balance, but this is still a great ale.

This beer is in honor of Arbor Brewing's 10th Anniversary, and is a super-sized version of their very popular Red Snapper Special Bitter.
Pours a deep red color, purply-brownly blood from afar but actually a sturdy crimson when held up to the light. Tight and even foamy head is lightly retained due to lack of carbonation, though leaving fair amounts of lace on the glass.
Smell is light wafts of grapefruit and pungent leafy hops, Cascade in the least. With warmth comes strong cocoa scents and a muted caramel tone. Not inviting or otherwise attractive as the cocoa and hops don't mix well. At all.
Taste is full with Cascade dry-hopped flavor and bitterness, not overly fruity but gripping in bitterness. The bitter this ale is based on uses some roast barley to achieve the deep red color and to provide some grainy complexity, but here in a doubled-up grain bill the roast barley is too much, contributing an ever-increasing drying cocoa sensation. Eventually the smooth malty core of softly sweet biscuits gets wiped out by this not-quite-coffee flavor that is jarring in juxtaposition with the hops. Mouthfeel is full and soft, almost cask-like, and the carbonation is low per style.
Interesting but in doubling (or so) the ingredients of a fine session beer the original balance is thrown off.

text: This is the second part of my earlier post "Drafting Safeties", but I'm a little confused as to what would be our best option. I'm intrigued by getting Elam back- let me rephrase, I would be very happy to get Elam back, he looked good intercepting the ball last year. I believe Butler would not be a high profile pick up for us, but he has fire and is the kind of blue collar player we need more of (plus I think the Giants are overloaded with safeties anyway, so we should relieve them of that problem- especially because we are safety deficient). Think of the advantages of getting a good return on a lower tier safety in free agency as an ability to pick Ron Brace in the second round, then adress the offensive line, rather than draft a safety in the second or third round, and I think you'll agree that we should do something with the safety positions by way of free agency- what do you think?

Is iOS 7 designed for white devices?
So I've not gotten iOS 7 onto my black iPhone 5 yet to try out but early indications from reading around seem to show that iOS 7 is more suited to the white iPhone. Also the marketing that's been put out so far by Apple would seem to point in this direction, there are very few shots of iOS 7 on the black iPhone.
We're meant to be seeing much greater synergy between the hardware and software due to Ive's involvement so I'm thinking that this could be a hint towards the next iPhone design. It looks absolutely great on the iPod touch hardware and I'm thinking that come September/October we may be in for a refresh that sees the iPhone departing from its traditional black/white and moving towards white with various colour options.

On Valentine's Day, the Sudbury Wolves will take to the ice wearing pink jerseys, pink hockey sticks in hand. It's all part of the Pink in the Rink event in support of breast cancer research.
Northern Life asked readers who have survived or are currently battling breast cancer to submit their words of wisdom or advice on how they got though their battle.
The winner of the Perkins' Pink in the Rink contest is Mélanie Picard who was diagnosed with breast cancer on her daughters seventh birthday.
"Winning is my only option," Picard wrote. "My two daughters are my motivation and inspiration.
"Whoever said that winning isn't everything, obviously wasn't fighting breast cancer. Luckily, I was born with a competitive edge."
Picard receives four tickets to the Sudbury Wolves Pink in the Rink game on Feb. 14, a $50 gift card certificate to Perkins Restaurant and a pink Sudbury Wolves' jersey and scarf from Skater's Edge Source for Sports.
NorthernLife.ca had so many wonderful entries, we had to choose the winner by random draw.
But there were so many inspiring words shared with us, that we wanted to share a few of our favourites with you.
NorthernLife.ca would like to thank everyone for sharing their stories.
"What got me through this terrible disease was a positive attitude and the will to fight for my family, who depend on me."
Denise Cockburn, 10-year survivor
"Think postive and stay strong. Keep telling yourself you can fight this. One day at a time. Lean on friends and family. They are there to help. Read all information that is given to you. It does really help."
Diane Guerard, 13-year survivor
"I watched 'Ellen' during chemo to make me laugh. But my biggest inspiration are my three boys and, of course, my wonderful husband."
Lucie Connell, three-year survivor
"Take each day as it comes and be thankful. Reach out to others to help them and it is returned to you ten-fold!"
On Valentine's Day, the Sudbury Wolves will take to the ice wearing pink jerseys, pink hockey sticks in hand. It's all part of the Pink in the Rink event in support of breast cancer research.

VP Debate: Only the Strong Survive
Paul Ryan is wrong that "projecting strength" will solve all of America's problems. But it does win debates.
Going forward, Obama would be wise to take a page from Biden's book last night. Dignified-and-above the fray might work in a press conference. In a political campaign, it comes off as weak. And it's deadly.
Just hours after the vice-presidential debate between Joe Biden and Paul Ryan ended on Thursday, the second installment of a film version of Ayn Rand's Atlas Shrugged, the novel that is a bible to libertarians, opened in theaters.
The story has an intricate plot that begins with the world on the verge of economic collapse and the most talented people—the best minds—going on strike to protest the government's increasingly socialist policies.
For all its plot twists, the book's fundamental idea is straightforward: a war is on between the vast majority of humans who are weak and the small minority who are strong. Moochers versus producers. And it's the government's role to protect and coddle the moochers. Paul Ryan has named Rand as a formative influence in his political thinking.
The timing of Atlas Shrugged's release, so close to the debate, is probably a coincidence. But thinking about it in relationship to the debate, and the recent presidential race, puts a few things in perspective.
For example: those pictures published this week by Time magazine, in which Ryan looks like he's auditioning to be "The Situation" in a D.C. spinoff of Jersey Shore. The photos show him in various workout poses—his hat backward and his right bicep bulging as he curls a barbell.
It's a subtle thing, yes. But then you recall how often you've heard about Ryan's famously rigorous P90X workout regimen, and how those bulging biceps probably speak volumes to society's self-declared producing class—the strong—who believe themselves to be under siege by the mooching 47 percent. No wonder they see Ryan as one of their own.
Rand's philosophy is usually connected to economic theory and used as a radical argument against government regulations and economic redistribution. But what stood out in the vice-presidential debate was how the Randian "strong versus weak" paradigm has become muted in the economic realm.
Even a self-described disciple of Rand like Ryan feels compelled to declare his support for the social-safety net. His intention is to save, not destroy, Social Security and Medicare. Or so he says. Rhetorically, he's fine with government programs that save the weak from themselves. This might be pure political calculation, or it might actually be rooted in something genuine–as a teenager, Ryan himself received Social Security benefits when his father died prematurely. Nothing shape a person's beliefs like personal experience.
Contrast his endorsement of social-welfare programs with Ryan's foreign policy attack, which is Randian to the core. The administration's primary goal, according to Ryan's account, is to bind the American people in chains of weakness. Ryan said more than once in the debate that recent developments mark "the unraveling" of Barack Obama's foreign policy. Those developments include allowing Iran to develop nuclear weapons; failing to support the "freedom forces" in Syria early enough; and the murders of four Americans at the U.S. consulate in Lybia. This is in addition to the Obama administration's proposals to cut the military budget and its outsourcing of our foreign policy to the United Nations, especially with regard to Iran. In all of these ways, we are "projecting weakness."
It took this vice-presidential debate to put the horror show that was last week's presidential debate in perspective, and to fully understand why it was so devastating. Obama might have imagined that he was being dignified by refusing to call Romney out or respond to his plain untruths. He might have imagined, too, that his success in killing Osama bin Laden had inoculated him from the "weak on defense" line of attack.
But his performance played perfectly into the idea that Obama is an appeaser of our enemies who is unfit for the job. Will a man who refuses to stand up for himself be able to stand up for American interests abroad, after all? In that debate, Romney's aggressive bearing and flawless delivery—contrasted with Obama's passive and detached delivery—amounted to a visual case study in "projecting strength."
What the Randian philosophy requires, to be persuasive, is isolation from real-world experience and actual on-the-ground reality. It's convenient for "the strong" to believe that they're smarter and work harder than the lazy moochers. And it would be it would be nice if projecting strength could solve all our foreign policy dilemmas.
Though he didn't achieve the magnitude of Romney's victory Obama, Biden won his debate with Ryan last night just by pushing back and insisting on concrete details. You would take a different approach in Syria? How? You would deal more effectively with Iran's nuclear weapons ambitions? In what way?
Ryan had no answers, aside from vague promises to project American strength. Because in fact there are no good answers. As everyone knows, we tried the plan of projecting our strength in Iraq, with disastrous results.
And that may have been why Obama seemed so paralyzed on the stage last week. Romney's nonsense was so out of touch with reality that it was difficult to even know how to begin pushing back. But going forward, he would be wise to take a page from Biden's book last night. Dignified-and-above the fray might work in a press conference. In a political campaign, it comes off as weak. And it's deadly.
Because politics is one realm in which, as Paul Ryan and his bulging biceps can attest, it's true: Only the strong survive.

text: What a great player. I know the Rangers don't really have a place for him but amidst all the talk of resigning Marlon Byrd and thinking about what kind of contract he'll get, I was watching the Angels/Red Sox game and started wondering what Figgins might get. He can play center, and wherever the hell else you want him to play, and he'll hit .300 and steal 40 bases. He's 31, a career .293 hitter with a .404 OBP. Maybe he gets caught stealing more than you'd like, and maybe Marlon has more 'leadership' mojo than he does, but who wouldn't want this guy on their team? I guess you could say a utility guy shouldn't get a big contract but at this point he reminds me of a Mark DeRosa, a guy a lot of teams would want. I say he gets 3yrs/30M and maybe 4 years from some team (probably the Angels.) What do you think?

David Einhorn's Top 5 Favorite Stocks
Due to investment strategies that include placing bets against a rising market, hedge funds are often known for significantly underperforming the broad equity market. However, David Einhorn's Greenlight Capital has managed to post impressive gains for nearly two decades. Courtesy of a new filing, investors have a glimpse at how the fund manager is investing.
Many institutional investment managers recently filed their mandatory 13-F with the Securities & Exchange Commission. The filing is a quarterly report of equity holdings required by managers that oversee more than $100 million in qualifying assets and must be filed within 45 days of the end of each quarter. The 13-F provides a glance at what firms did in the previous quarter, but investors should keep in mind that hedging and trading strategies of each fund are still unknown.
Greenlight Capital made several changes to its equity holdings during the fourth-quarter. The firm sold its entire stake in NVR (NYSE:NVR) and reduced holdings in Rite Aid (NYSE:RAD), Legg Mason (NYSE:LM), and Delphi Automotive (NYSE:DLPH). New positions were taken in well-known names such as Anadarko Petroleum (APC), BP (NYSE:BP), EMC (NYSE:EMC), and Take-Two Interactive Software (NASDAQ:TTWO). Since inception in 1996, Greenlight Capital has returned 19.5 percent on an annualized basis.
Let's follow the money and take a look at Greenlight Capital's top five holdings, according to dollar value.

The typical American Europop hit of the Sixties and Seventies did not need to be sung in a foreign language, although that was a touch often added; the main styles present in the music were European folk music or modern continental "Cabaret" song stylings, both of which were given a heavy pop production (ironic, since the original foreign-language songs that spawned the style were aiming for what they saw as an "American" sound).
The style was and is very romantic and dramatic, sung often with a female vocal (very few Europop instrumentals existed, and those that did were usually rearrangements of a foreign-language song). More prevalent in the earlier era, at least in America, were new hits that adopted the style for established bands, often for dramatic effect. As with easy listening music, no American styles are ever represented, even as influences, unless one counts the sometimes raucous, "hip" rhythm sections brought over from the original European pop styles of the 60s. In another ironic twist, the very hipness European countries tried to mimic became the new standard -- at least for a while -- in American pop. The rise of disco effectively killed the style; that is, until the ABBA-inspired style Eurodisco was born to replace it.

Flying Start project 'aims to help most vulnerable'
Communities and Tackling Poverty Minister Huw Lewis said the Flying Start project will be expanded over the next few years to target "specific communities where there are high concentrations of children living in income benefit households."
This is about providing superb quality childcare and support to those who most need it to the benefit of the whole family, and importantly to allow parents the opportunity to gain new skills and look for work.
Our efforts to prevent poverty start with targeting investment to give children the best possible start in life with early intervention to make sure that children have the opportunity to learn, develop and play.
– Huw Lewis AM, Communities and Tackling Poverty Minister
It is our ambition to double the number of children benefiting from the package of services that the Flying Start Programme offers and that is why we will be funding the creation of 146 new facilities to provide the service.

Hey guys,
Not sure why da boss hasn't dropped a thread on here yet but I thought I would since your informative leader has already jumped our forum.
Just for you info, Beanie Wells should play. Fitz is okay, just not in football shape. Yes DA missed some huge throws but he has shown promise with his opening and closing drive. Yes Steve Breaston can replace Q. Leinart who?
If you have any questions, ask away. The more frank the question the more honest the answer!
I hope for a great game and no injuries!

Hackers Go After Military Computers
August 20, 2011 by UPI - United Press International, Inc.
SEOUL, Aug. 20 (UPI) — South Korean military officials say hackers have attacked their computer systems 37 times since May, and six times so far this month.
The military warned all staff to refrain from opening e-mails from "firstname.lastname@example.com," which contains an attachment, that if opened could infect the user's computer with a code that can steal information from the computer, the Yonhap News Agency reported Saturday.
"We have spotted 10 cases of hacking attempts originating from overseas each in May and June. In July, there were 11 such cases and so far this month, six more attempts have been detected," an unnamed official said.
The malicious e-mails might have been sent by North Korean hackers, some speculated. There have been no information losses so far, the official said.
The United States and South Korea are conducting their annual computer simulation joint military exercise, called "Ulchi Freedom Guardian." The drill started its 11-day run Tuesday.

Glass is that mysterious translucent substance of what is essentially super-heated silica sand. Although details about the history of glass and glass making are still disputed, the earliest use of glass was undoubtedly that of the natural glass called obsidian. Obsidian is a natural byproduct of volcanic eruptions and it was prized by prehistoric societies the world over for its shiny black, orange, gray or green beauty, its sharp edges, and its workability.
Obsidian was used to make stone tools at least as early as the Middle Paleolithic, at sites such as Kaletepe Deresi 3 in Turkey near an obsidian outcrop, and the Upper Paleolithic Ortvale Klde site in Georgia, where researchers believe obsidian use helps underline a difference between Neanderthal and early modern human behaviors.
By the way, lightning strikes in sandy soils also create glass, called fulgurites, which occasionally turn up in archaeological sites.
Intentional glass making involves the superheating of crushed quartzite sand to produce a hot liquid, which is then allowed to cool to the clear, hard substance you recognize when you stare out the windows in your house or drink from a glass or place flowers in a vase, but that's the next step in the evolution of glass making.
More Information
Read Obsidian, for a word or two about the prehistoric use of the material. Also, there is more to be found at the site descriptions of Kaletepe Deresi 3 and Ortvale Klde.
A Bibliography of Glass Making has been assembled for this project.

In the Shadow of the Grove,, 1910
Oil on canvas
Collection of Stephen J. Brewer
When viewed through the lens of state history, arts education, exhibitions, and commerce gained the support of a growing frontier community with extraordinary speed during the late nineteenth century. Such an achievement was made possible only through the unflagging efforts of visionaries and the support of citizens who saw the viability of their communities closely linked to the aesthetic enrichment of their environment.
Before the turn of the century, Minnesota's art culture was centered in Minneapolis and was a very modest pursuit, initially championed by the ladies of local society. The city's first art exhibition, comprising works from Minnesota collections, opened in September 1878, and within four years, articles of incorporation were drafted for the Minneapolis Society of Fine Arts. Officially founded in January 1883, the society set forth two key goals: to advance a love of art through exhibitions and lectures; and (most important for the growth of an art culture) to establish permanent facilities for the exhibition and study of art. The latter objective was realized shortly thereafter when the Minneapolis School of Fine Arts (today's Minneapolis College of Art and Design) opened in April 1886 under the direction of Douglas Volk.
Integral to promoting artistic output in Minnesota were opportunities for exhibition—a means by which artists could gain exposure to the broader public while also gauging their progress among peers. Several artist organizations and commercial galleries in Minneapolis and St. Paul served as small-scale venues. The Minnesota State Fair and, from 1886 through 1893, the Minneapolis Industrial Exposition, provided large-scale exhibition platforms and opportunities for artists to study works by their East Coast contemporaries, as well as those of the old masters.
In addition, Minnesota's aspiring artists (and their peers across America) sought increased levels of training in other major cities. For those fortunate enough to have the means (or a sponsor), study in one of the academies of Europe was the ultimate goal. Although many returned to Minnesota to practice their profession, some pursued professional fulfillment elsewhere while maintaining close ties to the state and its arts community. They, along with those who established themselves here, became the mentors who shaped the next generation of Minnesota artists, thereby building upon the legacy of their artistic forebears.

Everyone knows Las Vegas as a quick and convenient place to get married, from drive-thru ceremonies to Elvis-themed productions.
Now, romance in the city is available with a side of hash browns. An Iowa couple became the first to get married in the new downtown Las Vegas Denny's restaurant.
Like bacon and eggs or pancakes and syrup, a wedding celebrates two things made better combined. What better place than Denny's?
Nancy Levandowski and Steven Keller were the first to tie the knot at the restaurant's chapel at Neonopolis.
"I think it's completely crazy that something like this would happen," Keller said.
"I cater about 130 weddings a year, so I didn't want to have to worry about this one, and I wanted unique and memorable. This will definitely be it," Levandowski said.
A basic wedding package will cost you $99. The restaurant needs a day's notice to arrange everything.

Perfect vacation spot!
The place is absolutely beautiful. It had everything we needed and then some. Aleta has thought of everything! The place was super clean, comfortable and has many personal touches. The property is very nice. The pool was clean and well-maintained. The beach is a short walk. There are plenty of great restaurants and Publix close by. This was one of our favorite vacation places. My children were ready to move in!
Zach and Gayle; Vancouver, Washington
My husband and I just returned from a week's stay at Jen and Joe's lovely vacation home on Bradenton Beach, Florida. The house was exactly as advertised, beautifully decorated, well-maintained, well-stocked, and perfectly located. The master bedroom is awesome, especially the divinely comfortable king size bed and balcony off from the bedroom. The master bath has a very nice jetted garden tub and good-sized tiled shower. We have stayed at numerous vacation homes, and this is by far one of the best. Jen and Joe are perfect hosts and very helpful. They answered every one of our questions before our trip, and made it clear to contact them if we had any problems during our stay. They are proud of their home, and rightly so. We will definitely be coming back. We stayed during the cold snap that hit the nation, including Florida. Despite unusually cold weather for this area, we found every day to still be perfectly fine to go out on the beautiful beaches and fishing piers in the area. We didn't come to shop, but found delightful shops on the island, particularly at St. Armands Circle, and in Sarasota and Venice. We ended up buying another suitcase to bring back the things we purchased! We have fallen in love with this little bit of paradise. There isn't a better place to experience it than in Jen and Joe's lovely vacation home, which is located right across the road from a lovely white, sandy beach.

Here are some of the top defensive recruits observed by SB Nation Recruiting at The Opening:
Defensive Line
- A'Shawn Robinson: The Texas defensive tackle commitment out of Fort Worth (Texas) Arlington Heights High School showed his well-known power, but he also impressed with excellent agility and lateral quickness at 6'4 and 302 pounds.
- Eddie Vanderdoes: The Placer (Calif.) High defensive line recruit is well known for his quickness, but his power and leverage were excellent on day two. He had one of the highlight reps of the line competition as he pancaked an opposing lineman.
- Demarcus Walker: The Jacksonville (Fla.) Sandalwood defensive linemen showed great first-step quickness and played low throughout the drills. Walker will likely play inside at the college level, as he is already 6'4 and 280 pounds.
- Elijah Qualls: The Washington commitment out of Petaluma (Calif.) Casa Grande High has great quickness off the snap. He is not a long player, but does have good thickness and is able to play low out of his stance, using his 265-pound frame effectively.
- Honorable Mention: Caleb Brantley
- Jaylon Smith: The Notre Dame commitment out of Indiana again showed freakish athleticism. Smith is incredibly long and was the best player on the field for much of the tournament. His ability to close ground on a receiver is unreal.
- Matthew Thomas: The uncommitted Miami (Fla.) Booker T. Linebacker has many of the traits that make Jaylon Smith special, including length and speed. Thomas was the best player on the eventual 7-on-7 champion 'Superbad.' Bryant told SB Nation that he is considering Alabama, Florida State and Miami.
- Larenz Bryant: The South Carolina commitment is well suited for 7-on-7 play with his small frame and fast game. He was quite active Saturday.
- Alex Anzalone: The Pennsylvania linebacker committed to Notre Dame Sunday arfter previously being committed to Ohio State. Anzalone didn't make as many plays as some of his counterparts, but relative to his size and game, he played very well in the setting.
Defensive Back
- Jalen Ramsey: The Brentwood (TN) Academy corner has excellent size at 6'0 and 189 pounds. His performance on Saturday was excellent, and he followed it up with a strong showing Sunday. Ramsey read the receiver well and broke on numerous footballs. He decides July 16 and has USC, Vanderbilt and Alabama as likely destinations.
- Jourdan Lewis: Michigan has a good one in this Detroit corner. Lewis jumped several routes Sunday and came away with diving interceptions. He also made ESPN's all-tournament team.
- Eli Woodard: The Ohio State commitment out of New Jersey has legitimate size (6'1, 185), and displayed excellent athleticism in intercepting Brice Ramsey and Cooper Bateman.
- Priest Willis: The uncommitted Arizona recruit was playing out of position in the slot, but did show off nice physicality. His change of direction was also impressive for a corner of his size.
- Marcell Harris: The uncommitted Florida safety looks like a linebacker, but was excellent playing the pass in a format that wasn't thought to fit his skills coming in. Harris covered hash to sideline with ease. He is strongly considering Florida and Texas.
- Honorable Mentions: Cameron Burrows, Artie Burns, Holland Fisher and Keanu Neal

There are few places I'd rather be than the beach, no matter what time of year. Even if it's not warm enough to go swimming, I love the sand between my toes, the sound of the waves crashing to shore and the coconut smell of my sunscreen. Quite simply, everything about the beach appeals to me, so what could be better than spending the holidays at the beach?
This year we'll once again be visiting Galveston, Texas to celebrate the holidays, where we'll join my husband's family. Our party will consist of six adults and three kids, ranging in age from 18 months to 6 years. And although traveling with a toddler is not easy, it's nice knowing that when the plane lands, there will be miles of sandy beaches for him to run and play!
During our week in Galveston, we'll make daily trips to The Strand to go shopping and enjoy the fresh fish at the local restaurants. Then we'll tour some old mansions, such as The Moody Mansion or Bishop's Palace, which are open year round. And since it will be Christmas time, we'll take in some of the local holiday flair, such as The Festival of Lights at Moody Gardens. No matter what time of year, Galveston always has tons of different things to offer for all different ages and tastes!
Are you traveling for the holidays this year, too? If so, I'd like to leave you with one tip I've learned along the way: to make the airport experience easier at this time of year, don't wrap your gifts until you arrive at your destination. There is not much worse, after all, than watching a TSA agent rip through your beautiful wrapping job!
This week on the RCI Blog, we'll be sharing photos and stories from RCI subscribing members who have, like me, traveled for the holidays. Be sure to come back or share a story or photo of your own here!

Alright, I've been busy during the holidays so I missed a couple of these match-ups. This week we face the undefeated Green Bay Packers. This is the Chiefs first game with interim coach Romeo Crennel. The Chiefs will also have a new starting QB for this week.
I'll look at the passing, rushing, special teams, and coaching. I'll also look at the x-factor while trying to be complete unbiased.
Chiefs QB: Kyle Orton or Ricky Stanzi
Packers QB: Aaron Rodgers
The Packers are 3rd in passing yards averaging 304.6 yards per game. The Chiefs are ranked 30th in passing yards averaging 177.4 yards per game. The Packers defense is ranked 31st in pass defense. They are giving up 288.7 yards per game through the air. The Chiefs defense is ranked 10th in pass defense. They are giving up 209.3 yards per game through the air. The Packers are allowing their opponents this year to complete 60.1 percent of their passes. The Chiefs are allowing their opponents this year to complete 58.7 percent of their passes. The Packers have 27 sacks and 27 interceptions this season. They have given up 33 sacks and 7 interceptions. The Chiefs have 23 sacks and 17 interceptions. They have given up 33 sacks and 16 interceptions.
When The Chiefs Pass: Tie (If Kyle Orton Starts)
When The Packers Pass: Packers
Chiefs Running Backs: Thomas Jones, Jackie Battle
Packers Running Backs: James Starks, Ryan Grant
The Packers are 27th in rushing with 99.5 yards per game. The Chiefs are 15th in rushing with 116.4 yards per game. The Packers defense is 12th in rushing giving up only 106 yards per game. The Chiefs defense is 15th in rushing giving up only 115.4 yards per game. The Packers are gaining 3.9 yards per rushing attempt this year. The Chiefs are gaining 3.9 yards per rushing attempt this year.
When The Chiefs Run: Packers
When The Packers Run: Chiefs
Chiefs Special Teams: Ryan Succop, Dustin Colquitt, PR/KR Javier Arenas, Dexter McCluster
Packers Special Teams: Mason Crosby, Tim Masthay, PR/KR Randall Cobb
Crosby has only missed 2 field goals this season and is perfect from 50 and beyond. Succop has missed 3 field goals and is also perfect from 50 and beyond. Masthay has a 44.9 yard punt average and 16 punts in the 20. Colquitt has 45.6 yard punt average and 22 punts in the 20. The Packers have a 25.4 yard average when returning kickoffs. The Packers have a 12 yard average when returning punts. The Chiefs have a 21.2 yard average when returning kickoffs. The Chiefs have a 11.9 yard average when returning punts. The Packers coverage team has given up 23.2 yards average on kickoffs and 14.9 yards average/1 touchdown on punts. The Chiefs coverage team has given up 20.2 yards average on kickoffs and 12.5 yards average/1 touchdown on punts.
Special Teams: Tie
Chiefs Coaches: Romeo Crennel, Bill Muir
Packers Coaches: Mike McCarthy, Dom Capers, Joe Philbin
The Coaching staffs are in two different places right now. Mike McCarthy is possibly on his second straight Super Bowl run. Dom Capers defense is really the only weak link. Romeo Crennel is the interim head coach after the firing of Todd Haley earlier this week. Crennel is not new at being a head coach however. Bill Muir's offense is the weak link of the Chiefs team.
Coaching: Packers
The Chiefs are playing at home but their home field advantage doesn't mean too much these days. The players might be fired up especially on defense playing for Romeo Crennel. Kyle Orton might give the offense the spark they need too. However, the Packers are just on fire right now and want to continue their win streak/dominance.
X - Factor: Packers
I don't even think the biggest Chiefs homer would say the Chiefs will win this week. If the offense plays well then perhaps it won't be a blowout this week. The Packers are just too good right now. They also have more depth at key positions. The Packers will win but it will probably be closer than we expect. I'm 7-6 when picking Chiefs games this year.
Winner: Packers

The issue of whether convicted murderers Robyn Davis and Carol "Sissy" Saltzman got a fair trial now heads to the State Supreme Court. That's since the Third Circuit affirmed their convictions in rulings made public Wednesday morning. Yet one judge disagreed and that gives the defense hope that they'll win at the next level.
It's a controversial case because there is no smoking gun. Instead, it's circumstantial evidence, and what prosecutor Rick Bryant considers a lot of it, that led a jury to find Robyn Davis and Saltzman guilty of the second-degree murder of Brian Davis. "This jury came back in two hours. They didn't have any problem with the evidence in this case. I'm very disappointed that it seems like the media, the national media and other people, don't understand the sufficiency and the strength of this case. It's an overwhelmingly strong case. These two women committed this murder. I have no doubts in my mind," said Bryant.Yet, attorneys who defended the women are just as adamant about their innocence.
"I don't think these women had anything to do with the death of Brian Davis," said Attorney Glen Vamvoras, who represents Robyn Davis. When asked why the jury convicted them, he responds, "Because of the compilation of errors that occurred in this case and things reached the jury box that should have never reached the jury box. The trial was not fair and it resulted in an unfair and unjust verdict." They are disappointed with the Third Circuit's decision."I had expected them to reverse the conviction particularly in light of the questions that these judges were asking during oral argument. These seemed to be focusing on the issues and they seemed to be very concerned at a lack of facts to convict and that the procedural process was not fair," said Vamvoras.Shane Hinch also argues the evidence in insufficient.
"There was nothing brought forth at the trial that would show that Sissy Saltzman or Robyn Davis had anything to do with the murder of Brian Davis. There was innuendo, there were some inconsistent statements with regard to the two women that were taken out of context," he said.The defense attorneys say the women should at least get a new trial one of three appeal court judges, John Conery agreed. Hinch said it was wrong for the judge to postpone swearing of the jury when it became apparent the prosecutor was going to be too ill to continue when the trial started the first time."The judge in this case should have, the law says that he shall swear the jury. He didn't. Judge Conery got it right when he said, 'Shall means it's mandatory.' Right then. Not a week later, not a month later, not five and a half months later. So, that is not a technicality. That is a right. We had a right to that particular jury. The law said that the judge shall now swear the jury together to try the case. That did not happen. The case should be overturned," said Hinch.Still, Bryant said the jury got it right and so did the appeal court."The timeline was critical. The cell phone information goes with that, we have video taped evidence, we have reactions of these two women claiming they're home when they're actually pinging off towers in Cameron Parish. We have so much evidence that the public has not seen that the jury did see that convinces me and would convince anyone if I had 20 minutes to sit down and talk with them that the defendants are guilty beyond any reasonable doubt," said Bryant.He said if circumstantial cases were not allowed, more people would get away with murder."We don't have, quote, the smoking gun. That's what a circumstantial evidence case is. You don't have an eyewitness. You don't have a confession.You don't have DNA evidence. But the law recognizes that those happen sometimes. You get a murder that people try to cover their trail. And we could do one of two things. Say, 'Oh, it's too hard to go to court on.' Or we can prosecute and we did it in this case and the jury was fantastic, they came back with a very quick decision and they were impressed with the evidence just as we were," said Bryant. Davis and Saltzman are serving life in prison. Defense attorneys say the dissent from Judge John Conery makes it likely the Louisiana Supreme Court will take up the case.

Today a jury found Michael Dunn guilty of three counts of attempted murder and one count of firing a deadly weapon in a November 2012 shooting which left 17-year-old Jordan Davis dead. The judge declared a mistrial on the charge of first degree murder and a retrial may be scheduled for later this year. Dunn is expected to be sentenced to at least 63 years in prison.

The United Nations report, submitted by Special Rapporteur on Racism, Racial Discrimination and Xenophobia Doudou Diene, presents an overview of the United States' compliance with international norms governing racial equality. It sets out several areas where the U.S. has failed to protect its citizens from racially discriminatory practices.

The move by FEMA to enforce the June 1 eviction date for Gulf Region residents who live in temporary trailers not only lacks basic compassion but is also a derogation of the government's responsibilities to uphold fundamental human rights.

The fight for housing affordable to low-income families in the United States is a vortex – even unlike the work I did representing immigrants in the post-9/11 world. In my experience, fighting for public housing is more unpopular than fighting for non-citizens' rights.

Tuesday FSU Ramblings
Posted by William Kristoph
I'll be honest. I've hit that wall that I hit every year. I've hit the wall to the point that I don't have very many coherent thoughts regarding anything FSU. I've also hit the wall with photography at the games. It's really, really nice to just go and watch the game instead of watching it through the camera the whole time.
Anyway, here are a few of the highlights:
- Rumor on the internet message boards is that new FSU President Eric Barron sent an email to faculty encouraging them to take attendance and have tests on March 17, National Binge Drinking Day, St. Patrick's Day. The small college kid voice in my head thinks that sucks. The 30 year old man in me likes the test idea, but not the attendance idea. Does FSU actually have a president that cares about academics now? Amazing.
- The FSU Baseball team is pretty darn good. RaysNNoles over at Tomahawk Nation has an interesting article on the #5 Seminoles, and why it's still a bit too early to punch a ticket to Omaha. I'm always cautious when it comes to the baseball team.
- Warchant.com has a Q&A with Andy Miller, CEO of Seminole Boosters. What I find interesting is that we are paying people ("full time representatives") in other areas of the state to recruit new boosters. I'm not sure how I feel about that, even if one of them is one of my all time favorite Noles, Drew Weatherford.
- FSU Softball is off to it's best start since 1993, with 20 wins and 2 losses on the season. What do we know? The hitting has improved, and the pitching is solid as always. What we don't know yet, and we will find out this weekend against UNC, is can FSU play this well against some better competition?
- I don't follow basketball, but it's obvious to me that Sue Semrau is the best coach at FSU right now. Why? She's built a program from basically nothing, continues to cater to fans and was the only coach that had to speak about the result of the FSU Cheating Scandal. You know, because certain athletic directors were nowhere to be found to comment on it.
- Congrats to the FSU Men's Basketball team for finishing strong enough that they'll be in the NCAA Tournament (presumably) for the 2nd year in a row.

EAST PEORIA, Ill. -- The Mayor of East Peoria says the new Aldi in the Levee District is just another example of how the new downtown is an economic boon for the city.
It was not long ago the levee district was just concrete and dirt.
Mayor Mingus said now the area is providing economic opportunity to the region.
"It was a tremendous challenge, but because of the efforts of councils prior, councils current and wonderful partnerships we've not turned this into something our citizens are very proud of," said East Peoria Mayor Dave Mingus.
Mayor Mingus said, while he cannot give specifics yet, more new development in the district is expected in the near future.

Full report: Shelter Scotland celebrates 10 years of work in Dumfriesshire
A charity in south-west Scotland say they have helped 1,500 families who were at risk of losing their homes in the past 10 years.
Shelter Scotland in Dumfries and Galloway are now warning that the problem is only going to get worse.
Our reporter Matthew Taylor went to meet one man who is struggling to keep the roof over his head:

Jose Altuve will almost certainly not get 3000 hits in his major league career.
OK - now that we have made that clear, a different point can be presented: Jose Altuve is the type of player who, 1) if he stays injury free and 2) if he achieves a high level of performance over a long period of time, actually has a shot at reaching 3000 hits.
Not all successful players with long careers reach 3000 hits. Look at guys like Reggie Jackson, Jeff Kent, Fred McGriff, and Steve Garvey, for example. Certain other factors beyond long-term success come into play. Here are six advantages Jose Altuve may have that would work in his favor towards reaching 3000 hits in the very rare event that he has a long, injury-free, and successful career:
1) Getting regular playing time starting at a young age.
Jose Altuve is 21 years old. If all goes well, he will have his first full season as a regular at the age of 22. This gives him a good head start for accumulating counting stats. A look at the 3000 hit club (with a focus on more recent players) shows that getting an early start is common in the group.
Yount had his first full season as a regular at 18; Kaline at 19; Henderson and Clemente at 20; Brett, Ripken, Carew, and Murray at 21; Winfield and Jeter at 22; Brock, Gwynn, Palmeiro, and Biggio at 23; Boggs at 24.
This is one thing that hurt Steve Garvey. He played some in his early 20's but did not put in a full season until he was 25. Likewise, Jeff Kent did not play in 150 games in a season until his 29 year-old season. The Astros' lack of major league talent will probably help Altuve avoid a similar fate.
2) Hitting for a relatively high average.
Guys like Boggs, Carew, Gwynn, Clemente, and Jeter relied on high batting averages to reach the 3000 hit level. But there were also guys like Biggio (.281), Henderson (.279), and Ripken (.276) who show that you don't have to be a regular contender for the batting title to reach 3000 hits.
Jose Altuve has a minor-league track record that suggests that a relatively high batting average is a possibility for him. And so far this year in the majors, he is hitting comfortably above .300. But even if he were to settle into the .280-.290 range, he could still have a small shot at reaching 3000 hits.
Reggie Jackson's .262 lifetime batting average helped doom him in the pursuit of 3000 hits. Jackson was a great player, just not a 3000 hit type of player.
3) Not drawing high numbers of walks.
Putting the ball in play (and thus maximizing one's hit-per-plate appearance ratio) increases a player's likelihood of reaching 3000 hits. A player who hits in the .280 to .300 range needs between 10,000 and 11,000 at bats to achieve 3000 hits. Drawing lots of walks keeps the yearly AB numbers lower and creates a higher need for longevity and a high batting average).
A caveat here applies though. A low walk rate is a deficiency in a player's game (minimizing outs is an essential skill), so the player must still do enough in other areas of the game to warrant regular playing time.
Altuve may have enough other skills (good contact rate, speed, defensive ability at a skills position) to secure regular playing time year in and year out, if he is performing successfully. His expected low walk totals will actually help him towards the specific goal of reaching 3000 hits.
Lou Brock was a low walks guy whose low walk total helped him reach 3000 hits. Even though he lacked power and his defense was poor, his relatively high average (.293) and great speed made teams perceive that he was an asset, allowing him to play regularly for many years and accumulate 10,332 AB and 3023 hits.
Reggie Jackson's high walk totals were another hindrance to him for accumulating lots of hits. Fred McGriff also drew too many walks to give him a strong shot at 3000 hits.
4) Hitting at or near the top of the order.
This is a relatively minor factor, but it certainly doesn't hurt a guy like Altuve, whose speed and contact skills make him a good bet to hit near the top of the order. Biggio, Brock, and Henderson were helped by this as well. McGriff, Jackson, Garvey, and Kent were slightly disadvantaged by hitting later in the order. They had fewer plate appearances and thus fewer opportunities to get hits.
5) Having skills high enough above replacement level talent to maintain regular playing time well past peak performance years.
This can be done in at least two ways. First, a player can have an outstanding skill (such as Carew's hitting) that allows him to still add value to a team even when his performance begins declining. The second way is to be a well-rounded player who adds value in a number of smaller ways and/or at a skills position. In a best-case scenario, Altuve would fit this category (along with players such as Yount, Biggio, Brett, and Boggs). At his best, Altuve would provide value in the field, on the bases, and at the plate and would be well-rounded enough to be seen as valuable even well beyond his peak years.
6) Being well-loved by the fans.
This factor is a bit tongue-in-cheek, but it did help Biggio! The Astros gave him regular playing time in his decline phase in part because he was such an icon in Houston (and, of course, because he was pursuing the 3000 hit club!). Altuve has already captured the hearts of many fans in Houston, so he is off to a good start. Going forward, he might want to think about staying with the Astros throughout his career to boost his fan value so that he can continue playing even when the results suggest he should retire or move to a part-time role.
Summary: Again Jose Altuve will almost certainly not get 3000 hits. But if he accomplishes his best-case scenario - an injury-free career with consistently strong results, he could find himself tallying quite a few hits. If he is really lucky (and good), I could see him matching most closely with Brock or Biggio among 3000 hit club members. Neither Brock nor Biggio hit for extremely high averages, both were top-of-the-order hitters, both had their first full season of regular playing time at age 23 (Altuve has a year's head start, if all goes as planned next year), and neither guy took that many walks (though Biggio HBP totals presented a higher challenge for him - another potential advantage for Altuve).
Brock had 10332 AB's with a .293 BA, and Biggio had 10876 AB's with a .281 BA. At an average of 600 AB per year, Altuve would need to play regularly (and injury-free) until he was about 39 years old (to reach 10,500 AB), with a .286 career batting average. That would give him 3003 hits.
But enough of the crazy talk. Back to our regularly scheduled programming.

The first two tickets to the Final Four get punched today as the Elite Eight games get underway. It's an All Big East matchup in East Regional final followed by a David vs. Goliath sort of matchup in the West Regional final.
In the first game today, the team that eliminated Cal from the tournament --- Syracuse --- takes on familiar Big East conference foe Marquette. (Ironically, neither team will be in the current Big East next year. Syracuse is off to the ACC and Marquette is part of the breakaway "Catholic 7" that left the Big East to form a new basketball conference, which will be called...wait for it...THE BIG EAST! Got it? Good.) The teams met only once in the regular season, with Marquette getting a three-point win on its home floor. There is a little more on the line today in the rematch.
In the second game, West Region # 2 seed Ohio State will see if its "survive and advance" kind of a run continues. The Buckeyes have won each of their last two games with 3-pointers in the closing seconds. Will this one be similarly close? Can #9 seed Wichita State make a game of it against the B1G Buckeyes?
Here are the particulars:
|(4) Syracuse vs (3) Marquette at Washington DC
|(9) Wichita State vs (2) Ohio State at Los Angeles
This is your open thread. Are you rooting for the team that beat Cal to reach the Final Four?
And a word of advice to Wichita State: if you're in a close game in the closing seconds and Ohio State has the ball, make sure you guard the three-pointer!
Enjoy the games.

Yi Jianlin sent from Nets to Wizards for garbage
Why aren't the Jazz in on these deals? Yi is a 7 footer who has some upside. He hada 3 million dollar contract and the Nets not only sent Yi to the Wizards but also gave them 3 million dollars which essentially pays for his contract this next year.... I dunno how well Yi would have fit in our system but I wouldn't have minded him at all. I'm sure others will feel differently.

Robert Morris University and Send Word Now Partner to Offer Emergency Notification Service for Campus Community
New "RMU Alert" system allows students, faculty and staff to receive instant text or voice messages during weather-related, other emergencies
NEW YORK, NY – August 14, 2007.
Send Word Now, the leading provider of on-demand alerting and response
services, today announced that it is partnering with Robert Morris
University (RMU) to enhance the University's emergency preparedness and
campus security through the introduction of its SWN Alert Service
beginning in the 2007-08 academic year. The multi-modal alert and
response service, known as RMU Alert, will allow the University's 6,000
students, faculty and staff to receive rapid communications during
situations such as power outages, weather emergencies, or other
time-sensitive situations, as well as to respond to alerts if required.
"Robert Morris University is pleased to partner with Send Word Now in offering the RMU Alert service, which will support multiple modes of communication with our campus community," said Ellen Wieckowski, chief information officer for Robert Morris University. "After this spring's incident at Virginia Tech, institutions nationwide recognized the importance of being able to reach individual students, faculty and staff instantaneously; we believe that Send Word Now's ability to contact people through various modes - high-priority texting, as well as voice and email – will allow RMU to accomplish just that, if and when needed. Because the service allows each subscriber to specify up to six contact points, the University feels confident that at least one of our communications will reach individuals, regardless of whether they are on or off campus at the time."Many colleges and universities are putting a new focus on leveraging the new technology to reach students promptly– with the communication devices and modes that are most familiar to them. The SWN Alert Service uses multiple modes of communication - including text messaging, telephones, mobile phones, email, pagers, Blackberries, Treos and other PDAs – to deliver alerts within minutes of a message being sent. Campus police, security personnel or administrators can initiate an alert from the web, phone, email or internal information system application. The two-way alert and response service that Send Word Now is providing to RMU is also designed to enable real-time response to voice and text alerts, allowing message senders to verify and track whether a response was made. Send Word Now's CEO adds, "The tragedy at Virginia Tech has prompted many colleges and universities to upgrade their campus security technology. Robert Morris University reviewed several different services, but ultimately decided that Send Word Now provided a service that could help keep the students on their campus aware of emergency situations."

Romans don't care about agriculture or farmers. This is a direct quote from a noted Roman chef. In fact, I hear this sentiment over and over again from chefs, bakers, gelato makers and gourmet shop owners. Are they exaggerating? Not really. Of course, there is a small niche in Rome that values good produce and properly labeled provenance, but this group is microscopic. By and large, most city dwellers are content to eat second rate food as long as it is cheap, convenient and abundant.*
Local farmers are among the unfortunate victims of this reality, so in order to raise Rome's awareness of Lazio's farmers and their goods, Gabriele Bonci's pizza by the slice place Pizzarium is going vegetarian for the entire month of July. No capocollo. No prosciutto. No tripe. "The only animal products we will serve are mozzarella and some other cheeses, hen's eggs and fish eggs. We will also make vegan things," Gabriele told me. No.au, another Bonci joint will be presenting a new vegetarian menu in July. Pizzarium will put the spotlight on produce beginning Monday July 1, wile no.au will present their new offerings later this month (the official launch will be announced on their website).
Look for the best and greatest summer produce Lazio's farmers have to offer like zucchini blossoms, eggplant, bell peppers, tomatoes, arugula and so much more. And continue to support local producers by visiting Terra Terra, the Città dell'Altra Economia, the stalls with green banners at the back of Mercato Trionfale, Palatium and Enoteca Provincia Romana. Bear in mind that most farmers' markets close or operate on limited schedules during July and August.
*And I would add that almost no one–regardless of their interest in food–wants to confront the conditions of migrant and seasonal agricultural workers in
Italy the world. Who wants to pay the real cost of food calculated after those who grow and harvest it are being paid a proper wage?

Great article! very informative and saddening that local grown foods are not a grand prize. Mangialo!

Fruits and vegetables are of some of the most filling food out there, so it's sad that people ignore the local grown produce. Even just adding a bit of greens to your pizza, steak, or chicken can make a big difference in both health and taste!
[...] Inside, a sort of hole-in-the-wall that sells pizza by the kilo and serves up a variety of pies from classics with barebones pomodorini to exotics such as ricotta and blueberries and everything inbetween. Also on the menu, various suppli and arancini can also be had. During our visit (The month of July), we learned Bonci will only serve vegetarian, a rare move for restaurants in Rome to show their support for local farmers. [...]

Good for you T.H. for pointing out the unethical behavior of the PW!
But don't hold your breath waiting for an apology of any kind from the PW.
A certain PW editor thinks only his version of the truth is valid.

T.H. & Came to the party late: whenever I read a post by you, I say to myself Consider The Source!
Incidentally, what do you mean by "is"?
on Dec 1, 2009 at 1:27 pm
When I read a post from you, I always wonder why you pretend to be Latino and why you disguise your intelligence by often using vulgar language. You are the alter ego for someone well known in Pleasanton.
As for your question, really, why do you bother asking questions to which you know the answer?
on Dec 1, 2009 at 3:05 pm
Dear Cholo...CONSIDER THE SOURCE. party...you sure know how to crush a poster...waaaaaaaaaaaaaaa...
tell us all what you're really concerned about...what's truly driving your criticism of others...fess up...it's not too late for you to be an honest woman...are you mostly all about race, ethnicity, manipulating the public, disinformation...hmmmmmmm?
ps CONSIDER THE SOURCE...T.H. & PARTY GIRL!
on Dec 2, 2009 at 10:22 am
T.H., you are very right in your observations about the PW. Jeb writes whatever he wants and Gina sits back doing nothing. "Journalistic integrity" does not ever belong in the same sentence with PW or Jeb or Gina. Wonder if we could dig up some trash about them, post it as news, then remove it after people have read it? That poor husband deserves more than an apology, maybe he knows a pit bull of a lawyer who can help him out.
on Dec 2, 2009 at 11:18 am
Maybe when Mr. Zuffa owns the PW it will be better. They really need to learn how to run a paper.
on Dec 2, 2009 at 12:15 pm
. . . . . wonder if he will keep Jeb on as editor . . . .
on Dec 3, 2009 at 6:23 am
We're living in the mist of "way too much information" age. Watching the local (SF) news when this story broke and hearing the words "TMZ is reporting" pretty much says it all.
And regarding Tiger's situation...we're all sorry when we're caught.
on Dec 3, 2009 at 10:03 am
At this point I believe the PW feels that they didn't do anything wrong. I think they believe what they did was legal, moral and accurate reporting. I beleive they took down the part of domestic abuse just to keep people on the forum from reading it and complaining. They seem to think they were in the right but just didn't want to deal with all posts pointing it out. That's why the closed the topic and opened up another restricted to reg'd members.

Nice try trolling for T.H. Cholo. Doesn't look like he's biting though.

Yelp's Check-in Offers Make Much More Sense Than Foursquare's
Local search and business review service Yelp entered the location-based check-in game nearly a year ago, following in the footsteps of other services like Foursquare and Gowalla. Over the summer, the company added badges and mayor-like features and we wrote that the move clearly placed Yelp "in direct competition with the likes of Foursquare."
Google Places Updates Review Section, Yelp is Back
Google just announced an update of the reviews section of Google Places, which essentially separates reviews from sites like Yelp, Zagat, Citygrid and others into separate category, called "Reviews From Around The Web." Places used to just list outside reviews under a "Reviews" section. Now you can click on the Yelp review and be taken to the review on the Yelp page for the establishment.
About Yelp
Profile: Yelp is a local consumer reviews website and mobile application that allows consumers to write and share reviews of local businesses. The value for consumers comes through the ability to discover new local businesses based on the opinions of fellow customers. Additionally, Yelp gives consumers a real sense of empowerment by providing an open forum to share their positive or negative customer experiences. The Yelp mobile application features social check-in capabilities similar to Foursquare and Gowalla. While the act of checking-in via Foursquare and Gowalla represents a relatively weak form of location engagement, Yelp by its very nature encourages consumers to engage locations at a deeper level by posting reviews and photos of their experiences. Writing reviews is an integral part of the user experience on Yelp, making it a powerful tool for monitoring consumer sentiment and engaging customers.
Promotional Mechanisms: The deep location engagement of Yelp provides businesses with direct insight into the individual customer experience. Consumers who have already taken the time and effort to write a review or post a photo illustrate an existing emotional engagement (either positive or negative) that companies can act on directly. Negative reviews allow businesses to refine their operations or make amends directly with customers. Positive reviews allow businesses to recognize what is working and act to build a business's credibility within the community, ultimately driving more traffic to a location.
To directly engage with and monitor consumer activity on Yelp local businesses must first "unlock" their location's profile for free through Yelp's website. This process grants business owners or managers access to detailed analytics on page views and reviews for their location. Once unlocked, a business can post announcements, location news, and promotions directly onto their profile. They also can respond directly to user reviews. Businesses can pay to advertise on Yelp. These advertisements show up as highlighted sponsored results at the top of user queries.
Yelp is most valuable and relevant for small businesses—as opposed to large chains or franchises—because they more readily lend themselves to reviews of one-of-a-kind services or locations.

MONROE, LA. (KNOE 8 News) - While the 7 a.m. murky morning moon was still hanging in the sky, more than 300 Pro and Co-Anglers arrived at the Ouachita River on Thursday, hanging on to the hope that this is their year.
This year's Everstart Championship Series in fishing brought in anglers from across the country, competing for $50,000 and a berth in the 2013 Forrest Wood Cup.
"12 pounds a day is about what it's going to take to make that Top 20," Tournament Director, Ron Lappin, said.
For West Monroe angler, Jim Dillard, he's hoping his hometown knowledge will give him an edge.
"The fish are tough to get the bite sometimes," Dillard said. "I'm going to put myself in a position, in an area that holds big fish to try to win. I'm not fishing for second. I'm not fishing for points. I'm not fishing for anything but the biggest bag of fish I can weigh in every day."
By 8 in the morning, every angler was speeding to their favorite spot on the river and so were KNOE 8 News's cameras, capturing scenes of anglers battling the cold and the fog to bring in a big one.
$200,000 in cash and prizes are up for grabs but a huge cash prize is also coming for Ouachita Parish.
"We've been in a lot of businesses here," Lappin said. "We're using local donut shops to make our coffee and donuts. We're all going out to eat. All these anglers are spending a lot of money. We'll bring over $2 million into this economy here in a 10-day period."
The championship ends on Sunday, Nov. 4th so anglers have until then to catch as many fish as they can in the Ouachita but only time will tell who will come out on top.
Thursday and Friday's weighing in of all the fish will happen at Forsythe Park at 3:30 p.m.

'Tis the season for cover-ups which means an excess amount of cover-up rethreading. I have had this green monstrosity in my closet for the past year. I tried to fix it with a lame attempt of tie-dyeing but the colors did not turn out the way I wanted. As most smart girls do, I decided the only way to fix the current situation was to go darker.
I went to my local craft store (…Michaels…) and purchased some Rit dye. The dye was really cheap and came highly reviewed by the internet forums I was searching through. I bought two but I only needed a portion of a bottle for the one tunic. The directions on how to use the dye were pretty straight forward. For the fabric I was working with, …., I had to add salt to the concoction. I put my 1/3 lb of cloth in a bucket, added a gallon of water and then the dye.
