Neon Galaxy is a Sci-Fi/Fantasy/other convention and is not affiliated with NeonCon. I apologize for any confusion that may have come about due to the name similarity but the con name was picked out before I was asked on board and it's too late to change it.
Oh ho?? I'll have to bring this up to the San Diego crew. It will be great to have a Con in Oct - Nov.
I see what you mean, however I'm pretty sure it is ment to be a racial evolution.
I looked over the Additional Resources for the book in question and noticed that new class content that is allowed for all races is given the "OK." I would expect to see the same thing for summoner evolutions if it was allowed, unfortunately that is not the case.
The two examples I found:
"The new alchemist discovery on page 44 is legal for play for characters of all races."
"The rogue talents on page 193 are legal for play for characters of all races."
@Mike I missed the podcast, but know I can watch it later and it only took me 3 minutes to come to the forums to figure out what I missed. I highly support going with modern methods of communication.

By keeping the "Average party level" test, we could always just do flat money based on Character level regardless of playing up or down if the goal is keep people at or near level appropriate gold. Could even offer special boons for playing up that the GM could check mark on the chronicle if met to their satisfaction.
On the chronicle instead of having gold based on Tier, have gold by level. For Example, every tier 1-5 would look like this:
Level 1: 333
(The example is based on a formula keeping gold exactly as detailed on Table 12-4 on page. 399 of the Core Rulebook and could be modified for more or less gold accordingly.)
Formula is: Level appropriate gold - Prior level gold / 3 (because you get three chronicles worth of gold.)
This method would encourage people to play up, not penalize people that play down, and ensure scenarios can be played with wealth appropriate characters.
Not an idea I disagree with. A place for new players to identify with when first looking for PFS information. Who cares if all the answers are stereotyped into such categories as suggested. A player willing to ask will ask anyway, be it in general, or in a "New to PFS" category. Unsure of the logistics, perhaps it is to much trouble to implement for the benefit.
15k is worth DR 3/- in your example.
Besides that, why add a whole new level of complexity to go from +1 to +2. +1 to damage and hit on your shinny new weapon or +1 to AC on your new armor really doesn't make enough difference to change the rules over. +1 is nothing. Seriously. Look into some of the consumables you could purchase instead to become a well rounded character.
Get a character above level 7, perhaps then you will see how futile this post is.

I agree. You can't really apply real world ethics to Pathfinder. Real world ethics have a lot of grey area and Golorian ethics are rigid and defined.

Guess I can try to get in touch with my VC and hope he responds to see if he has access to posters/fliers. What else can I do? Has anybody else had good experiences as a player doing things to get game days better attended? Share your stories, please.
Good call getting in touch with your VC. Not only is it helpful to you, but also to your community as a whole.
My partner and I hosted a weekly game in SoCal for about a year, had many good experiances and made a lot of good friends. I think we were one of, if not the first weekly week-day PFS games in SoCal. I learned over the year that the majority of our draw was from out of town and eventually those people started PFS games in their own town. After losing my job our weekly game eventually died, but now there are 3 or 4 weekly week-day games in SoCal, so it worked out for the best for the community.
Still have all those friends we made. =)
Deep Forest is probably my favorite, you can use it in many out door situations.
Edit: Most used? The older modules use Waterfront Tavern a lot, however I think that is out of print. Another somewhat often common flip mat in older modules is Mountian Pass. Town Square, Theater and Ship are also sprinkled in there.
Newer Modules seam to be mixing it up quiet a bit. I haven't been able to pinpoint a specific mat being used often.
Personally I like owning the real pain in the butt ones to draw, otherwise I will just draw it.
Have you tried contacting your VC or VL yet and informed them? PFS officers really need the support of the community to know what is going on in their region.
Currently Cleveland has both a VC and VL. You can find their profiles on this page: http://paizo.com/pathfinderSociety/about/regionalCoordinators
If you have not contacted one of them I suggest sending a private message.
Understandable not wanting to confront someone, particularly someone you spend time with. Nor is reporting some ones actions always in best interest, however in the interest of the community doing so is probably the best thing.
No one here in this on-line community knows your area of gaming as well as you and your community. If true, if false, your Venture Officer likely wants to know. Past reports, on-going-concerns, sort things out, makes things better.
As VC Mr. Eric Brittain said over the weekend, and I paraphrase "I want to know it all. Tell me of those times you waited for only the end, to be done and leave. Tell me of when you wished the night could go on and on. What made it that way? Why was it good or bad? What scenario?" He was a bit more eloquent and energetic in his telling.
According to the misfire rules "If the natural result of your attack roll falls within a firearm's misfire value, that shot misses, even if you would have otherwise hit the target."
It seams to me under RAW you would still misfire. It says nothing about hitting your target or a different target otherwise. It could even be argued that you would not hit an "adjacent threat to your intended target" since it states ". . . even if you would have otherwise hit the target."
I would expect table variation on the ruling.
I play everything as is, roll all dice in front of PCs, never pull punches, however I sometimes forget some aspect of combats because I'm focusing to much on the RP.
I find when I run things as written everything works out pretty well. The PC's feel the threat of dying and yet in the end they succeed. I also discourage playing up.
Too much logic in this thread.
Pathfinder and all games that have a mechanic to playing are not based on logic, they are based on the mechanics.
Something your character should have known, yet does not have ranks in knowledge? Too bad, game mechanics are not based on what you should-have-would-have-might-have-may-have known. It is only based on what your character does know after rolling a die.
Pathfinder is Mechanics based, not logic based. Most problems can be answered by this simple truth.

Actually, as long as you are in a large settlement (which you are assumed to be between scenarios), you just pay an additional 50% of the scribing cost to pay for access to another wizard's spellbook. Thus for a 2nd level spell, you spent 60gp and make the DC 17 Spellcraft roll.
Where did you find the "additional 50% of the scribing cost to pay for access to another wizard's spellbook".
P.S. to the OP, don't forget you can get 4th lvl wizard spells with 2 PP.
After looking at pictures of a Daikyu I would agree it is not a composite bow, it lacks the recurve. However:
Heirloom Weapon trait - Longbow proficiency, get a composite bow. (100g if it has a +0 STR bonus.)
Spell - masterwork transformation to masterwork your weapon (so you can upgrade it with Adaptive later, which will allow you to use your full STR bonus, though the weapon must first be +1)
Description - A very tall bow that looks more powerful than a normal
What a cool idea, however I agree with Andrew, it would pretty much take an entire overhaul of the current reporting mechanics. I fear such a change would put even more work onto the shoulders of GMs and volunteers.
But hey! If you have a bar let me know! Wolf, my devout Halfling follower of the brave lord of spirits would like to visit for a day (week when including hangover) or two.
I had the same problem when hosting a weekly game, I was lucky to get a small group of dedicated GM's (one of which went on to become the first VL of LA.)
One thing I never did do, and should have, was to start or end the session with a straight up honest question to my players. "Can any of you GM in the near future? We would like a break." I think I would have got a few bites.
Not sure if your hosting at a game store, but what a local game store does for game days is to have a small fee for players to sit at the table (a dollar per player) and the GM gets store credit at the end. It was a pretty cool.
It is true a neutral druid has some difficult finding a place to fit in with the factions.
Lantern Lodge always struck me as the most neutral faction and I think it represents more then just Monks, Ninjas, and Samurai. It is an entire culture and way of life, which extends far beyond just three classes. Furthermore when you consider all the different races in Golorian it completely changes the dynamic of what we would normally consider ethnicity.
Would an elf from Tian Xia be an Asian elf? Or still just an elf that happens to live in Tian Xia? They of course could be if that is how someone envisions it, but when I think of an Elf, Dwarf, Gnome, etc. I envision them as a culture on their own despite where they live.
Grand Lodge is a close second for neutrality for me, however being loyal to the Decemvirate strikes me as leaning toward Lawfulness.

Celestial full plate and celestial chainmail are legal for play. The celestial shield on the other hand is not.
There is technically a loophole for getting the shield since it is not outlawed through the Advanced Race Guide, but you have to be an assimar to take it.
I use to try to optimize a lot, but found I ended up with a really strong combat character that had no soul.
Now when starting a new PFS Character I like to:

Looks like only the armors listed can be make of eel hide.
This supple material offers as much protection as leather, but is more flexible and resistant to electricity. Leather, hide, or studded leather armor can be produced with eel hide. The armor check penalty of such armor is reduced by 1 (to a minimum of 0) and the maximum Dexterity bonus of the armor is increased by 1. Additionally, wearing eel hide grants the wearer electricity resistance 2. Armor crafted from eel hide is always considered masterwork, and the masterwork costs are included in the listed prices.

2) Can I have Leather Armor made of Eel Hide, wear it under my Breastplate, and even though the AC bonus won't stack, would the DR 2/Electricity stack if there is no DR on my Breastplate? If there is DR, will they stack? what if each has a different type of DR (ie: Electricity for the Eel Hide Leather Armor, & DR Aberrations for my +1 Defiant (Aberrations) Breastplate)
You may only have one item in a slot, armor slot for this example, unless it is a slot-less item.

That is what I did, however it is rarly used anymore since I have to stay in the back. Just isn't enough BAB / AC / HP to be in melee without dying. It would work well if you were a deciple of Ash though! Oh, btw, Ash died again.
I feel that I have finally come full circle with Role playing and PFS.
When I made my first character for society I had a lot of ideas of how it would be and expectations, yet I had never played a game within an organized setting. I developed a background, a story, motivation, and calculated everything down to the last stone of weight. Then I played my first game and was rather disappointed to find out that a lot of the role playing I was expecting simply wasn't there. I'm not the type that can RP at a table with other that don't RP, though I'm working on it.
When it came time to develop my second character I went to straight min-max soulless character. Though he was strong, he was also completely dry and boring on the occasions that RP was a possibility.
The next couple characters I made were based around a theme. They were easy to RP and usually got some laughs and were a good addition to any party. A lot of the most memorable characters in PFS I know are kind of like this and it is always a pleasure to play with any of them.
At the last convention in LA I went to someone said, not directed at me, "why does your character do what he does?" I got to thinking about this question and it is so much more in depth when though of from the character's perspective. The actual why do you get out of bed and join with a group of fellow pathfinders and risk your life. Why see terrible things from monsters, ruthless killing on both sides, to tragedies when our fellow pathfinders die. Why do you do it?
I felt a little embarrassed, even though the question was not directed at me. With the exception of my first character I had no answer to that question or indeed any of the other questions that were raised.
I've finally come back to understand and see how important that information is. Not only for self satisfaction, but for me to properly RP a character I need to be able to think like that character and for that I will need to know why he does what he does. How he came to be, thoughts on other factions, religion, the society as a whole, and goals for himself.
I'm really trying to go over on board on this new character, that way I can answer any question from his view point. Hopefully to add some more fun into society as well. I think Gygax's book would give me some valuable insight, thanks for pointing it out, perhaps I can pull it up on my old dusty kindle.

I have a scrollmaster in society (Abram "Abe" Darius) a very old gray hair human and he is by far my favorite charictor that I have played so far, due to RP reasons.
I built him with melee combat in mind, basically hitting people with scrolls for the wtf value and gave him one level of fighter. It worked very well for a few levels. After about level 5, any type of hand to hand combat with Abe basically became irrelevant. He can't hit anything because of 1/2 BAB and he dosn't have the HP to be in melee.
Min-max wise he is a horrible charictor lol, and yet still my favorite. Abe is now a buffer, casting heroism, haste, bulls STR, etc. often off of scrolls. Debuffs and direct damage spells don't work because my DC is to low. Buffing young lads and lasses, reminds him of the good old days of fighting in melee. He still gets to hit things every once in a while and it still gets cross-eyed looks. Abe also carries a lot of high level scrolls on him, he is a very expensive charictor, but disinegrating people is fun.
Looking back on Abe, if I were ever to make a scrollmaster again I would not put the level of fighter. Just go straight scrollmaster for the "staff like scrolls" at level 10 that scrollmaster gets. 25g for a casting lvl 10 magic missle scroll. Yes please.
It has probably been said already in this post, but you can only but lvl 6 scrolls. You can get the lvl 7-9 scrolls later on, but only if you are able to cast that level of spell.

I do agree with this. Furthermore I disagree with the origonal idea of table credit in PFS for running home games. If things are to remain seperate then they should be seperate.
Chris Mortika wrote:
True. Though I don't see to much problem with people leaving in between the chronicles, depending on the AP of course. If made playable only once like all other PFS games, and make it so people give up the right to continue with the AP if they deviate from it in any way such as: Playing a scenario or module in between AP chronicles. Then the incentive would be to make a new Character for AP's being run.
I normally don't argue for or against such things and just watch what happens. However the amazing in-depth gaming of Paizo's AP's combine with the easy access, playability, and variety of socializing that PFS offers seams to be a very alluring idea on paper.
In reality of course it might be to hard to schedule or just plainly to difficult to implement, but I suspect that is not the case and really would be worth the time.

. . .APs and PFS are apples and oranges, people. They don't need to meet and the fruit salad would taste mighty funny.
APs and PFS are apples and oranges, but that is because you are comparing an organization to an adventure path. Modules and APs are very simular.
Modules have seen a lot of success in PFS, expanded the available playable games and increased the hard level cap. I think APs if properly designed would do well in PFS as well.
What is your argument for not introducing APs?
Yup, the GM ran it correctly. I highly suggest buying Seekers of Secrets getting a clear ion stone and slotting it into your Wayfinder.
Wayfinder Resonant Powers (Clear spindle): "Protection from possession and mental control (as protection from evil)." (Pathfinder Chronicles: Seekers of Secrets, pg. 52)
I think a better idea would be to make AP-like adventures spacifically desinged for PFS. It would be great for multi-slot conventions and game days.
Adjusting exsisting APs would be difficult since no AP that I know of to date was developed with PFS time restraints in mind or indeed a timed schedule at all. You finish a chapter when you finish a chapter.
The only way I can think of releasing exsisting APs to PFS would be to completely re-design the exsisting AP storyline to suit PFS. Then releasing a new book with the PFS version of the same AP. I actually would be willing to pay to pick up both versions.

I just got the Ibanez Tone Lock series TS7 Tube Screamer brand new for $40CAN.
It's basically a TS9 with a boost switch. Sounds amazing. Unfortunately in the shop they didn't have any fresh batteries and it was crapping out on me. Hopefully this was just due to the low battery and all will work fine when I test it at home.
If the issue I saw in the store is just the battery, it's much more bang for the buck than paying nearly $200 for a TS808 or TS9.

There is a good community base
and [the community] helps the
officer out. I really like that and I
think it can become better."
Bamberg Mayor Blain
Crosby said he was excited about
Preacher joining the force after
coming out of college. "That's just
a drive right there, knowing he
graduated from college and now
wants to come on the police force.
It's outstanding and good for the
community. He will be able to
watch the kids grow as he grows
I'm mostly excited about
having the honor of wearing the
badge. Not a lot of people get the
opportunity, said Preacher.
Preacher now lives in Bamberg,
and plans to stay in order to
protect and serve Bamberg for the
Bamberg Police Department
Chief George Morris said, "Every
time someone comes on board it's
a learning experience. Everybody
brings different ideas and
Morris later said Preacher
will be on the streets of Bamberg
patrolling for a few weeks until he
will be sent to the South Carolina
Criminal Justice Academy. Once
at the academy Preacher will
learn, "advanced and specialized
training in understanding gang
culture, criminal domestic
violence, traffic safety and

Bamberg County Chapter
of the American Red Cross
Coordinator Harvey Kling was
honored Wednesday at the
Chapters September quarterly
business meeting held at
Fryes Restaurant in Bamberg.
In recognition of his long
service to the organization,
Kling was presented with a
plaque by Joey Hutto, Red
Cross Disaster Services
Specialist that stated the
The Palmetto SC Region
Service Award In honor of
Harvey Klings 22-years of
dedicated service to the
American Red Cross Bamberg
County (1991-2013). Also
during the meeting Bamberg
Mayor Blain Crosby presented
Hutto with a gift from the
Bamberg County Chapter to be
given to Executive Director
for this area Lindsey Finley,
who is taking another job out
of state.
Kling reported the Red
Cross has two good clubs in
the countys two public
schools with 24 students at
Bamberg-Ehrhardt High
School and 26 students at
Denmark-Olar High School.
The B-E group was recently
able to visit Governor Nikki
Haley at the State House and
had a great day. The kids
are our future, Kling said.
Kling noted a recent blood
drive was a success collecting
21 of 22 pints of useable
blood. Coordinator Kling also
noted the Chapter would like
to schedule a planning session
with local teachers and faculty
members in the future.
Disaster Services
Specialist Joey Hutto reported
the agency deployed five
volunteers to help with the
flooding in Colorado. He
noted the agencys number one
goal is to get people trained as
the region prepares for
disasters. Hutto noted that it
has been relatively quite
locally since the heavy rains
back in the summer. He also
commented that local fire
departments would be
receiving training in disaster
relief probable in mid October.
Talk of the government
shutdown, which took place after
the House and the Senate could
no longer come to a compromise
over what The Affordable Care
Act, also known as, Obamacare
would do to American Citizens,
many are wondering what
exactly will take place.
While some agree all
Americans should have
healthcare coverage, others feel
they should have the choice to
make the decision. Either way,
due to the disagreements and
unsettling arguments, the
government is now shutdown.
So what exactly will happen
now? According to WIS-TV
News 10, "The last time the
government shutdown was late
1995 into 1996," and, "it lasted
for 21 days," costing the country
$1.4 billion. As time moves on,
the citizens of America will find
out what this shutdown in
government will cause.
However, the "basics of
what you need to know," for this
shutdown seems it might
shutdown the lives of some
Americans. President Barack
Obama, in hopes of avoiding the
shutdown, tried to pass a "short-term
spending measure to keep
government agencies operating.
Another struggle the president
faces is raising the credit limit to
prevent exceeding the $16.7
trillion credit card. It was
reported President Obama felt a
shutdown was better than
defaulting on the credit card,
despite the shutdown being like
throwing a wrench into the gears
of a recovering economy.
For starters, Social Security,
unemployment and Medicare
benefits will continue, but there
might be holdups in processing
new disability applications.
Meals at school, and food stamps
or Supplemental Nutrition
Assistance Program will also
continue. Head Start programs
and food assistance programs
like the Special Supplemental
Nutrition Program for Women,
Infants and Children, could shut
down. These programs serve
children and health care referrals
and nutrition education for
pregnant women, mothers and
The mail will still be
delivered, due to the US Postal
Service receiving no tax money
for operations and the military
will still fight. It has been
reported the 1.4 million active
duty personnel can expect a
delay in paychecks. However,
President Obama said, "Those of
you in uniform will remain on
your normal duty status.
Congress has passed, and I am
signing into law, legislation to
make sure you get your
paychecks on time. And we'll
continue working to address any
impact this shutdown has on you
and your families."
Some citizen employees
from the Defense Department
will be furloughed, along with
335,000 members from the
American Federation of
Government. The other 335,000
American Federation of
Government Employees will not
be paid until after a decision is
reached. Air traffic control,
national security and border
protection employees will still be
working. Taxes will still need to
be paid, and bonds will still be
All veterans hospitals and
federal prisons will still operate
as if the shutdown did not take
place. However, "new patients
will not be accepted into clinical
research at the National Institutes
of Health." Other medical studies
could be delayed, and the
Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention will no longer be able
to investigate any disease
The Food and Drug
Administration will work on
high-risk recalls and meat
inspections will continue. Other
inspectors with the federal
occupational safety and health
inspectors will quit workplace
inspections unless otherwise
"imminent danger," is apparent.
"If you need a federal loan
for your house or business, if you
want a gun permit, that will not
be possible until the government
is back up and running. Some
federal contractors' projects
could be delayed if they need
paperwork filed with the
"The State Department will
continue processing foreign
applications for visas and US
applications for passports, since
fees are collected to finance
those services," according to The
Boston Globe. The National
Weather Service will continue
giving forecasts and NASA will
keep some employees at the
office in Houston and other
offices due to the six people
currently deployed in space.
But no further information
seems to be found on the web on
news stations for citizens and
their families. These citizens
simply have to wait for the
government to decide when
they'll be back to work, and once
that happens, employees are still
unsure as to if they will receive
back pay.

The Cross Country Program
at Bamberg-Ehrhardt High
School is beneficial to all the
other athletic programs that
involve movement, B-E head

five senior boys for the first time.
The team has no senior girls on
the team, which bodes well for
the future of the program on the
girls side. With just two meets
under their belts so far this
season, things are going so far
so good, according to Jolly.
The team is looking to build
on last years solid finishes that
saw the girls team finish in
second place in the region and the
boys finish in third place. The
team is lead by All Region
selections Kirkland Lee Rizer,
Paul Glenn (fourth year in
program) and Brooke Thomas
(third year in program) . Also
returning for the girls team is
Sky Westbury. Others returning

Response Plan Team answered
Monday afternoon in a Table
Top Exercise held in the BEMS
Fortunately, this was only a
make believe situation Monday
afternoon as Bamberg School
District One Federal Projects
Coordinator Phyllis Overstreet
took members of the BEMS
team through a number of
different crises scenarios that
included a pretend mass
illness at the school they hope
will never happen.
How does the staff deal
with parents, who are concerned
about the well being of their
children, the media, are students
allowed to use cell phones in an
emergency situation were other
topics group members
discussed. Overstreet noted that
each school in Bamberg School
District One has done its own
needs assessment because each
school has its own student body,
parents and staff population.
So each school has done a
needs assessment based on that
and the configuration of the
school. Each school has
developed a Safety and
Emergency Response Plan
based on their needs
assessment. Overstreet note
that the plan is to have another
district Table Top Exercise with
the principals, and
superintendent probable during
a January staff development
meeting and also include the
police department, fire chief and
other emergency personnel to
be on the same page with our
outside people. If something
untoward happens your training
will kick in, were all on the
same page, Overstreet said.
BEMS Principal Troy
Phillips noted that it was
important to keep things in the
proper perspective when
planning for a crisis situation.
We dont want to overreact,
Phillips said, adding we want to
make sure that people know
whats going on. Phillips noted
that plan as they may there is no
way every situation can be
planned for. Is every situation
covered, probably not, you cant
think of all situations. If youre
doing your regular procedure
almost every situation can be
accounted for.
Other Bamberg School
District One Safety and
Emergency Response Activities
include the following:
All schools have updated
safety and emergency response
plans; There is also a district
plan, which includes procedures
related to staff training, and a
requirement that all plans be
reviewed and updated by
September 1st of each year;
School plans take into account
the current student, parent, and
staff populations, with
information related to any
special physical or other needs
of those populations related to
safety and emergency response;
An initial district Table Top
Training exercise that included
all principals, the
superintendent, assistant
superintendent, school nurse,
school resource officers, school
psychologists, and Assistant
Chief Kirby was held on August
8th. A second district-level Table
Top exercise will be conducted
in January, and will include
representatives from local
police, fire, rescue squad, and
other community emergency
response representatives and
Table Top exercises will be
conducted at all three schools.

By The Art Newspaper. News, Issue 191, May 2008Published online: 01 May 2008
The oddest aspect of the blockbusting Cai Guo-Qiang show at the Guggenheim in New York (until 28 May) is that 20th Century Fox are credited
almost as often as the artist. Indeed every last line of small print announced that the exhibition title: "I Want To Believe™ is used with permission of Twentieth Century Fox Film Corporation. All Rights Reserved." The mystery is solved with a simple Google search which reveals the famous UFO poster that appeared in cult US sci-fi TV series "The X-Files" (below). As the poster was made specially for "The X-Files" and the same phrase is also the name of the second X-Files film opening this summer—only two months after the show closes—it seems Cai had to get special dispensation to borrow the title. Asked if the museum had to pay the studio to licence the phrase, a Guggenheim spokeswoman said: "We do not comment on contractual agreements." The truth is out there. Kitsch maestro Jeff Koons must have been very proud to have his steel bunny sculpture featured in a bastion of American camp—the soap opera "The Young and the Restless". In a scene filmed at the new Broad Contemporary Art Museum in Los Angeles (above), leading characters Victor Newman and Sabrina stop to appreciate not only Koons's work (the bunny is deemed "Deceptively simple. Almost like classical sculpture") but Damien Hirst's and Chris Burden's as well (the couple fulfil their passionate kiss quota for the scene among Burden's lamp-posts). We can only hope Koons will make a cameo appearance.And so to the Hermitage in St Petersburg where the display of Damien Hirst's diamond-encrusted skull, For the Love of God, scheduled for next month, has now been "postponed indefinitely" for reasons that the museum is not willing to explain. According to Hirst's gallery, "it has taken too long to organise." The Hermitage was to be the skull's first stop on a three-year world tour. Some confusion surrounds another announced venue, the Leeum Samsung Museum of Art in South Korea. While the artist's gallery assures us that the skull will travel there "in May 2009", the museum itself informs us that it has no such plans.Betting on Bear Stearns proved to be quite costly for British-born, Bahamas-resident financier Joe Lewis, who lost around $1bn in just one day when the bank had to be bailed out by its rival JP Morgan Chase. Mr Lewis has been a generous patron to the arts, particularly to London's Wallace Collection. He is also a major collector of 20th-century art, and would be missed by the trade if he stopped buying. Fortunately, despite the Bear Stearns loss, Mr Lewis still remains extremely wealthy.Readers of The Art Newspaper may be wondering what happened to the 1980s UK pop group The Thompson Twins. One former member, Alannah Currie, now works as a furniture designer. Under the pseudonym Miss Pokeno, Currie makes chairs that incorporate stuffed dead animals. A spokeswoman for Miss Pokeno explained that the designer is actually a vegetarian and makes a huge effort to find beasts that were either roadkill or died naturally. These animal-cum-seating pieces are on show at The Ragged School (8 May to 8 June, by appointment only) in south London.A newly installed statue of a naked Aeneas on a dolphin has strained diplomatic relations between Germany and Austria. The £200,000 bronze sculpture by local artist Domink Dengl is perched along the River Inn in the German town of Simbach am Imm. It seems residents of neighbouring Braunau have found themselves on the wrong side of the work and are objecting to its giant derrière. Braunau's deputy mayor told local press: "This creature has his butt straight in our face. We don't appreciate the gesture and want it moved." n

No 'Bull****' at IMAG
Publishers talk candidly about multi-platform agenda.
EVANSTON, IllinoisŌĆöDay two of the MPAŌĆÖs IMAG conference opened here today with a promise from David Lusterman, publisher of String Letter Publishing and IMAG conference chair, to ŌĆ£take the level of candor to new heights.ŌĆØ┬ĀLusterman then laid down two rules for speakers and audience members: No ŌĆ£bullshitting,ŌĆØ and no withholding.
The agenda was focused primarily on making the jump from a print to a multi-platform publisherŌĆöan imperative underscored by session speaker Cia Romano, CEO and founder of Web consultancy firm Interface Guru, who warned that publishers who donŌĆÖt make the turn are ŌĆ£not going to survive whatŌĆÖs coming.ŌĆØ (Attendees appear to understand that the threat is real, as evidenced by how the crowd fell silent during WednesdayŌĆÖs award dinner following mention of the recently shuttered country music magazine No Depression.)
When Romano asked how many people have identified the three primary users of their Web sites, only a pair raised their hands. ŌĆ£ThatŌĆÖs not good,ŌĆØ she said. ŌĆ£If youŌĆÖre not user-centric then you have no strategy.ŌĆØ
Janet Ludwig, president of Allured PublishingŌĆöwhich serves the spa, fragrance and cosmetics care marketsŌĆösays her company took this approach as far as naming their ŌĆ£typesŌĆØ of users, such as ŌĆ£Esther the Aesthetician,ŌĆØ during the Web redesign process. ŌĆ£ŌĆÖWe would say, ŌĆśIs this for Ophelia or is this for Esther?ŌĆÖŌĆØ
Changing the Mindset
For Bryan Welch, publisher and editorial director at Ogden Publications and IMAG board chairman, building a successful multi-platform business means changing mindsets. ŌĆ£I hear a lot of my peersŌĆöand the voice inside my head sometimesŌĆösaying, ŌĆśI have this medium or I have this revenue streamŌĆÖ or some business school commodity,ŌĆØ Welch said during a session called ŌĆ£Successful Multi-Media Publishing Strategies. He says publishers need to move away from mission by medium and move toward mission in terms of building communitiesŌĆöin his case of registered users who want to consume the products his company is selling.
ŌĆ£We have about a million paid subscribers to all our print publications and about 400,000 registered users online,ŌĆØ Welch said. ŌĆ£We believe this is backwards. We should have 10 million registered users. Once we have them in the community, I donŌĆÖt know what weŌĆÖre going to sell them, but I know damn well weŌĆÖre going to sell them a bunch of stuff.ŌĆØ

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. (team release) -- A pair of home runs by shortstop Junior Lake powered the Tennessee Smokies (15-17, 50-52) to their third straight win, 7-5, over the Jacksonville Suns on Wednesday afternoon in game two of a five-game series at The Baseball Grounds of Jacksonville.
Lake, who finished 2-for-5 with three runs scored and four RBIs, also went deep in last night's series opener, giving him three homers over the past two games. First baseman Justin Bour went 3-for-4 with an RBI in the victory.
Jacksonville starter Bryan Evans struggled mightily with his command in the top of the first, walking the bases loaded before recording an out after 12 of his first 14 pitches missed the strike zone. The Smokies opened the scoring when cleanup hitter Justin Bour, who narrowly missed a grand slam two pitches earlier, lifted a sacrifice fly to plate Junior Lake with the game's first run. Evans avoided disaster by retiring the next two batters to end the threat and limit Tennessee to just one run.
The Smokies extended their lead to 3-0 in the top of the second when Lake homered for the second time in as many days, lifting a two-run blast to left. The Suns countered in the bottom of the frame, though, plating a pair of unearned runs thanks to a pair of Tennessee errors to pull within one, 3-2. Tennessee again loaded the bases with no outs in the third, but Evans fanned the next two batters and reliever Bobby Bramhall struck out Nelson Perez to hold the Smokies off the scoreboard.
Jacksonville tied it in the fifth on a pinch-hit double by Jose Duarte and took the lead later in the inning on an RBI ground out off the bat of Chris Gutierrez. However, Lake's second two-run homer of the contest would give Tennessee a 5-4 edge in the sixth inning. Nelson Perez tacked on some insurance with a two-run blast in the top of the ninth, making it 7-4 in favor of the Smokies.
With Frank Batista on the mound in the ninth trying to complete a two-inning save, Curt Smith doubled and scored on an RBI ground out to make it a 7-5 contest, but the Suns would get no closer as Batista nailed down his league-leading 18th save of the season.
Dae-Eun Rhee (7-5) earned the win, scattering nine hits over five frames while allowing four runs (three earned). Trey McNutt followed with two hitless, scoreless innings in relief.
Evans labored through control issues, walking six batters over 2.2 innings, but the Jacksonville starter did not factor in the decision after surrendering three runs. Jordan Conley (1-2) suffered the loss after serving up the go-ahead homer to Lake in the Sixth.
The Smokies and Suns play the middle contest of their five-game series on Thursday night at 7:35 p.m. when Tennessee sends right-hander Dallas Beeler (4-6, 4.11 ERA) to the mound. Jacksonville will counter with southpaw Brian Flynn, who will make his Southern League debut after being acquired by the Miami Marlins earlier this week in the trade sent infielder Omar Infante and pitcher Anibal Sanchez to the Detroit Tigers. The 6-foot-8 Flynn has spent the bulk of 2012 with the Lakeland Flying Tigers in the High-A Florida State League, going 8-4 with a 3.71 ERA in 18 starts.

Sponsored Deals
They're like ads, but good.
OK, yes, companies pay a little something to be Sponsored Deals. But we don't allow just any old crap in this section. Sponsored Deals are proposed to us by other retailers, manufacturers, and even other daily deal sites. If we find the deal compelling enough that our members will appreciate us bringing it to their attention, we'll feature it here. Believe it or not, we have a reputation to uphold. If your store would like to be considered for this space, please contact us for details. But if your deal is lame, or sketchy, no amount of money will let you buy your way in.
Community Deals
It's whatever you want it to be.
Pretty much, anyway. This is where you find the deals that wooters like you have ferreted out and brought to light. We're thinking it'll turn into a massive database of discounted products from around the Web, constantly expanding to absorb the newest deals from the very moment their prices are slashed, with each deal immediately rated by hordes of savvy voters to spotlight the very greatest deals in the world today. Hey, we can dream, right?
We use a fancy algorithm to determine which deals are catching the most buzz – they're under the Popular tab, which is the default view of this section. You can look for the most popular deals today, this week, or this month. The Fresh tab features the most recently submitted deals, so that's where to look for deals that everybody else doesn't know about yet. And the Search bar does what a Search bar does, only, uh, much wootier! Yeah! Right on!
Ask The Community
They probably won't bite.
Organic bullets? Vegetarian haggis? Cheap tickets to Antarctica? The best high-performance sweatsocks for under $100? If you're looking for a deal that doesn't appear to show up in our Community Deals section, throw the question to your fellow cheapskates. Or answer a question for one of your fellow cheapskates. Or vote for your favorite questions, or your favorite answers, or… maybe we should call this section "Ask, Answer, Comment On, And Vote In The Community", but that won't fit on the page.

Even 40 years after his father's friend whispered what he saw as
the future ("Plastics!")into Dustin Hoffman's ear in "The
Graduate", it turns out he was right -- and then some,
particularly for the aviation industry.
Aluminum components that were once the norm for aircraft
manufacturing are taking a back seat, in many cases, to their
lighter-weight, plastic-based composite cousins, reports the New
York Times.
All of this, of course, is to meet the highly-competitive demand
from airlines, which are reacting to public pressure to replace
their older aircraft with more fuel-efficient, reduced-emissions
craft that are lighter-weight and less polluting.
Utilizing plastic-based components can significantly reduce
weight in an aircraft. And of course they are already in use in the
automobile industry, sporting goods manufacturers, and others who
have seen the financial benefits from this new use of plastics.
In order to be part of the competition, aircraft and component
manufacturers are scurrying to meet airline needs with new designs
that make more use of these composite materials.
A composite may be thought of in terms of the output of two
individuals working together being superior to those individuals
working separately. Does that metaphor not work for you? Okay, a
composite is a combination of two or more industrial materials that
exhibits the best properties of each and additional qualities that
the individual materials do not possess alone.
In the industry of aerospace, composites are made of nonmetallic
fibers, such as carbon, fiberglass or aramid, that are embedded in
a resin of plastic or epoxy molded and then cured in autoclaves at
high temperatures.
A composite material like carbon fiber -- stronger and stiffer
than aluminum, titanium or even steel -- has a relative
weight/volume that is half that of aluminum and one-fifth the
weight of steel.
Both Boeing and Airbus plan to use composites in at least half
the structural components of their latest wide-body jets, the 787
Dreamliner and the A350-XWB.
The 787 is being built using an all-composite fuselage and wing,
and according to Boeing, will burn about 20 percent less fuel than
similarly-sized jets.
Airbus' 555-seat A380 superjumbo is made of 25 percent composite
and other advanced materials, offering a weight saving of about 15
metric tons.
It was back in the 1960s that Boeing began experimenting with
fiberglass with its 747 program, using it on certain control
surfaces of the plane, as well as on fairings and trailing edge
panels on the wings and tail.
Boeing's use of ultra-light materials has increased
significantly over the past decade, with the 777 wide-body made of
about 11 percent composites, most of it in the tail section.
Airbus has also has boosted its use of composites in the wing
and tail sections of its single-aisle A320 family, as well as in
its widebody A330 and A340 jets.
Its A350 will be made of 52 percent composites and achieve
comparable levels of fuel efficiency as Boeing's 787.
"The trend is clearly towards more composite," Jeff Turner, the
chief executive of Spirit Aerosystems, which builds carbon-fiber
and other composite components for Boeing and Airbus. "Whether it
totally eclipses the metal airplane or not, I couldn't say."
Much of the companies' future investments will be used for
finding uses for new, lighter materials to increase the fuel
efficiency of the planes.
And recent advances in composite technology could not come at a
better time for the airlines.
"The biggest thing about composites is that it gets fuel costs
down," said Howard Wheeldon, an aviation industry strategist at BGC
Partners in London.
Because rising oil prices cut into airline profits, it is
forcing carriers to demand better performance and longer range from
its new planes.
According to IATA, although aircraft fuel efficiency has
increased about 2.5 percent a year since 2003 - saving the industry
$2 billion a year - the industry expects its fuel bill to rise to
$119 billion this year, up $8 billion from 2006, representing 26
percent of operating costs.
There is additional good news with lighter planes. Not only do
they burn less fuel, because airport landing fees are partly based
on the weight of the aircraft, a lighter fleet can represent a
significant cost saving to airlines.
According to IATA, airlines and passengers pay at least $43.5
billion a year in airport landing fees and other taxes, equivalent
to 11 percent of global airline revenue.
Manufacturers also note that composites resist fatigue and
erosion better than metal, which reduces maintenance costs because
regular jet inspections do not need to be as frequent or
Maintenance intervals for composite-built jets could be as much
as twice as long as those for aluminum planes, said Jeanne Yu, an
engineer who heads Boeing's environmental performance group.
Regulators are likely to await proof of those claims, however,
before approving significant changes to current inspection
According to the International Civil Aviation Organization,
airlines spent $41.7 billion on maintenance in 2005, equivalent to
10 percent of total industry operating costs.
Besides cutting fuel consumption, said Scott Hamilton, an
analyst based in Issequah, WA, "savings on maintenance is the main
factor that makes composites attractive to airlines."
Composites also simplify
the production process for jet manufacturers because they allow for
the creation of larger, more integrated parts.
According to Boeing, this could eventually help accelerate its
assembly lines by as much as 40 percent.
Additionally, a lot of "waste" is eliminated because composite
sections are cast into precise molds; they do not, like aluminum,
have to be cut and shaped from sheets of bulk material.
And let's not forget the passenger, whom airlines are in the
business to serve. Composites make it possible for airlines to
significantly increase cabin air pressure because they are stronger
and stiffer than aluminum. That would mean less fatigue for
travelers on long-haul flights.
Cabin air pressure in aluminum wide-body jets is typically
equivalent to what a person would experience at an elevation of
8,000 feet, above sea level, a factor contributing to that
Additionally, composites' resistance to corrosion means that the
relative humidity of the air inside the cabin can be higher than
the 10 percent to 20 percent typicaly found on today's planes. This
decrease in dry air would be another improvement for passenger
Although engineers may debate the merits of different
composite-designed jets, it is clear that aircraft manufacturing
has crossed a technological threshold with the 787 and the A350
that will shape on the way future aircraft are built.
"There is no going back," said Wheeldon of BGC Partners.
"Plastic has finally made its mark in the big toys."

This recipe is distinctive! If you see it on any other blogs, and it hasn't been credit to me, then here's the link to Ally's Kitchen! We foodie bloggers work too hard not to have our work credited~~we love to have things shared, but share the love back our way! Now, on to why I created this recipe~~
Since I bought a big fat container of Fage plain Greek Yogurt for half price…since I had a hankerin' for crusty sourdough (my version) bread…and since I felt like playing in dough…I made this 'Crusty Yogurt Sourdough French Peasant Bread.' Remember to refrigerate what you don't use cuz it doesn't have preservatives and chemicals that will keep it fresh for decades!
Makes: 2 French loaves
Preheat oven to 400
What you need:
2 pkg fast rising yeast
2 tsp sea salt
1 tbl sugar
2 ½ cups water (divided)
1 cup Fage plain Greek yogurt
7 cups all-purpose flour (divided)
4 tbl melted salted butter
What you do:
In a large mixing bowl place yeast, salt and sugar. Heat ½ cup of water to 110-120 degrees and pour into bowl. Blend with a whisk. Let sit for about 10+ minutes or until it begins to slightly bubble. In a small bowl, blend the yogurt with ½ cup warm water. Pour into mixing bowl and blend. Add the remaining warm water. Begin adding flour, one cup at a time and blend. Add about 4-5 cups of the flour and thicken the dough. Use a wooden spoon to continue mixing and turning and blending.
Cover with a clean dish towel and place in a cold oven. Turn on the oven light. Let the dough raise until almost double in size—about 3 hours.
Punch down the raised dough and dump onto a floured surface (using about 1 cup of the flour). Knead for about 8-10 minutes using the rest of the flour as needed. Cut into two pieces and shape each into a French loaf. Place on a parchment paper covered cookie sheet or better yet a perforated French baguette baking pan. Make slits on top with a sharp knife.
Let the bread raise another 30 minutes. Bake in a preheated 400 degree oven for about 55-65 minutes. Remove and cover with a towel and let cool about 10 minutes. Drizzle melted butter on top. The outside of the bread will be very crusty; the inside of the bread will be very moist and dense.

Statins Don't Seem to Raise Cancer Risk
Large study finds cholesterol-lowering drugs don't increase chances of malignancies
By Denise Mann
HealthDay Reporter
MONDAY, July 18 (HealthDay News) -- A large, new study appears to quell concerns that taking statins might raise the risk of cancer.
Among approximately 91,000 adults whose full medical records were available via an electronic database, researchers report there was no significant difference in cancer risk among those who took statins and those who didn't.
After an average of five years of follow-up among nearly 46,000 pairs of people who either used the cholesterol-lowering drugs or did not use them, 11.37 percent of participants taking a statin developed cancer, compared to 11.11 percent of those individuals not taking a statin, according to the study in the July 15 issue of the Journal of the American College of Cardiology.
A common survival curve plotted for any cancer diagnosis up to 10 years also showed no difference between the two groups, the researchers reported.
The study authors noted that due to the way the matching pairs were selected, their conclusions "may not be generalizable to the overall population of U.S. adults taking statins" and recommended further analyses.
Experts not involved in the study, however, supported the findings.
"The new findings are fairly conclusive, because the numbers are large and the outcomes are compelling," said Dr. Stanley Rockson, a cardiologist at Stanford University School of Medicine. While they do not seem to increase cancer risk, statins do confer some risks such as liver damage and muscle problems, he added.
"In groups in whom the risk of no treatment is suitably high, the benefit will eclipse any risk associated with treatment," he said. "We can put the statin-cancer risk story to bed."
Dr. David C Goff, department chair of epidemiology & prevention in the division of public health sciences at Wake Forest University Health Sciences Center in Winston-Salem, N.C., agreed. "This is another very strong piece of evidence that there is no concern about cancer risk with statins," he said.
"This provides additional reason to believe that statins are safe and very effective at reducing heart disease and stroke," he said. The same things that help reduce risk of heart disease will also lower risk for many cancers, he said. "Avoid smoking, eat a healthy diet that is rich in fruits and vegetables and whole grains, exercise regularly and maintain a healthy weight," Goff said.
Dr. Nicholas Mitsiades, a professor of medicine, hematology and oncology in the Dan L. Duncan Cancer Center at Baylor College of Medicine in Houston, said that not only do statins not increase cancer risk, but there is some very preliminary evidence that they may help treat or prevent certain cancers such as prostate cancer.
"Most of the studies are reassuring that you should not be concerned about risk of cancer for people who received statins for the proper indications," he said. "If you have an indication for statins because of high cholesterol and cardiovascular risk, and have a received a prescription from your doctor to take statins, you can take them without fear of increasing your risk of cancer."

David Stewart, PhD, DNM recommends using "lots" of CYPRESS oil. "It builds blood corpuscles, especially the white cells. Apply it on the skin, breathe it, and take capsules of it. It will accelerate the rebuilding of your immune system after chemo has destroyed it. The doctors will be amazed at the speed of recovery from chemo when cypress oil is used like this."
The Essential Oil Desk Reference suggests that if taking antibiotics or undergoing chemotherapy or radiation treatments, to take a full dose of a good probiotic (acidophilus and bifidus) daily for one week after finishing with antibiotics or medical intervention. Plain, unflavored yogurt eaten before lighter meals also helps provide friendly bacteria. For radiation patients, saturate the site 10 days prior to treatment with TEA TREE (Melaleuca alternifolia) and Melaleuca ericifolia. Take 4 "00" capsules per day, before, during radiation and for 30-60 days following treatment.
CARDAMOM shows a significant decrease in the lipid peroxidation level of the liver and increased glutathione levels. These findings indicate the potential of cardamom as a chemopreventive agent against two-stage cancer. PubMed Abstract: Chemopreventive Effects of Cardamom on Chemically Induced Skin Carcinogenesis

Taking Probiotics with Antibiotics
From Kurt Schnaubelt's book, The Healing Intelligence of Essential Oils:
"When Niaouli oil has not been applied from the beginning or when cutaneous lesions appear during radiation therapy in spite of applying it, applications of Everlasting Hydrosol or Lavender Hydrosol relieve the pain very quickly and improve the lesions within a few days. Applying essential oil of Patchouli, Cistus and Spike Lavender diluted in a vegetable oil speeds up healing."
HEO has Lavender Hydrosol, Patchouli and Cistus.
You may want to consider getting the Comfrey/Calendula salve - it's very soothing and healing. EOs can be added to it (as to dilute them if desired).
From The Complete Guide to Aromatherapy by Salvatore Battaglia, page 397: Using essential oils in massage (properly diluted) will not:
1) make the cancer grow due to incresed blood supply. While blood circulation is increased following a massage, this will not stimulate cancer growth. The tumor growth is dependent on many other factors than blood supply.
2) make the cancer spread. If the cancer is the type which has the tendency to dpread, metastasise) then it will do so of its own accord. Massage will not increase or decrease metastasis.
3) interfere with the chemotherapy and radiation therapy. Both these treatements are far too powerful to be over-ridden by any effects of massage.
Essential Oils to Restore Taste and Regain Appetite (per Kurt Schnaubelt, Ph.D.)

Does Zinc Deficiency Affect our Taste Buds?
Could Zinc Deficiency Be Robbing You of Your Taste and Smell? by Steven Wright
Price notes:
A blend of Citrus bergamia [Bergamot] and Citrus aurantifolia [Lime] produces a mouth-watering aroma when used in a vaporizer before meals.
Other oils useful in this respect include Carum carvi [Caraway], Foeniculum vulgare [Fennel], Mentha spicata [Spearmint], Myristica fragrans [Nutmeg] and Zingiber officinale [Ginger]. A study using indirect inhalation and/ or topical application proved to be effective in promoting patients' appetites, often within 24 hours. Meals monitored by staff showed an increase of food intake from zero the first day to 25% by the third day, and up to 75% and more by the 10th day. These are measurable, effective outcomes without harmful side effects (O'Haynes 2010).
1. I put FRANKINCENSE on the soles of my feet before my chemotherapy treatments and experienced none of the typical side effects (neuropathy, muscle aches and joint pain, flu-like symptoms). I used the Frankincense the day before, the morning of and for the week following the treatment. I'm a believer in Frankincense!
2. A few months ago I had a chemotherapy treatment which consisted of 3 doses of FEC and 3 doses of Taxotere. Typically this treatment causes the fingernails to become ugly looking and many fall completely, which is painful. During the time of my treatment, I rubbed one drop of PURIFY oil on my nails, twice a day. Instead of becoming ugly and falling off, they actually became much stronger and grew faster during that time then ever before.
3. I completed treatments for radiation and chemo with absolutely no side affects whatsoever for bladder cancer and T4 tumors, which are the most aggressive kind. Standard treatment for this kind of tumor is to remove the bladder and prostate. A month before the treatment I applied FRANKINCENSE, IMMUNITION and LEMON undiluted one at a time on the bottoms of my feet and inside ankles to cover all my organ points. I added Frankincense and Lemon to my drinking water. I daily applied SUNSHINE by rubbing a drop on my finger and thumb and then rubbing it on each ear lobe and down the side of my neck over the arteries into the head. I also applied it under my nose so I could inhale it for a while, and then I'd reapply. - Randy
4. I just finished chemo for breast cancer. I had four Adriamycin-Cytoxin (AC) chemo treatments followed by four Taxol treatments. My neighbor introduced me to essential oils when I was almost finished with chemo, for my last treatment of Taxol, which has side effects such as muscle aches, join pain and neuropathy. You basically feel like you have a terrible case of the flu. For my last treatment, I put FRANKINCENSE on the soles of my feet the day before chemo, the morning of chemo and for four or five days after chemo. I had NO side effects from that Taxol treatment. Two days after chemo my friends couldn't believe I was feeling so good!
5. DIGESTION SUPPORT blend has been wonderful at combating nausea associated with chemo for my 2-year-old son. - Amy
6. I ordered the NEUROPATHY SPRAY for my 91-year-old mother who has peripheral neuropathy in her feet as a result of chemotherapy. For years now she rarely was able to sleep through the night without the searing pains in her feet. Praise God! On the second night of her applying the Neuropathy spray 3x day she is now without pain and sleeping. She did say she had some mild pain one night only. - Sally
7. We purchased NEUROPATHY SPRAY for my dad who has neuropathy due to chemo. His bottle was about empty, and he asked me to order two more bottles! - Jill

Scotch Single Malt - Highland - 2013
Please enter your details to make it easier for us to help you further.
This is a stunning whisky, I'm a great favourite of the 15 year old revival, but this gem of a whisky is up there with anything I"ve ever tasted! Sublimely smooth with a finish that just goes on and on, just brilliant!
11th November 2014
Simply amazing bang for buck ratio. Totally blew me away from the first sip. Better experience than Highland Park 18 for half the price. If you are into sherried whiskies, this is a must!
5th June 2014
One of my favorite single malt Scotches. If you've only ever had a whisky "finished" in a sherry cask, this is a much different experience. Glendronach 18-year old spends the entire time in sherry casks and the the nose, palate, and finish are all a great balance of malt and sherry. Every day is special when you have a dram of G18.
17th July 2013
This word must be the most over-used, trite, dull and totally uninspiring way of describing a whisky. I see it on almost every review. x
20th June 2013
Delicate flavours, smooth - have I said that already? - an exceptionally fine dram.
13th June 2013
A wonderful and pleasureable tasting experience. Recommend this to everyone and this malt is set to become a star
13th May 2013
12th May 2013
Amazing stuff!
9th March 2013
Maybe the weakest malt of the Glendronach range. Very fruity, but not much complexity. 15 yo Revival has a lot more to offer.
28th January 2013
This Glendronach is one of my favorites dram. Buy it now!
15th August 2012
...after a very enjoyable 15 y.o. Revival. But in the present case we have just a solid Higland whisky with a distinctive Speyside profile. No more, no less.
9th August 2012
Had bottle of 18yr three years ago, and that was pure joy, unbelivable,
but last two bottles, one from this shop, and another from local shop in Huntly are different, still nice but not like before, go for 21 yr!
24th July 2012
Fruity and spicy and so tasty. I would recommend this for any new whisky drinker. pure nectar in a glass.
