So...the brett that Boulevard uses doesn't sour, but this one does? Which is which? I had their Saison Brett and it wasn't sour, just a little funky.
In general bret does not give much sourness alone. I finally got around to using this yeast this last Saturday. I am going to rack it this weekend hopefully onto some peaches.
I brewed 15 gallons of Surly Cynic Ale based on the Pro kit recipe from Northern Brewer today. I put 10 into my conical with the standard WLP550. I put the other 5 gallons in a carboy and pitched WLP670. I am really looking forward to see how it turns out and how different it is than the 550.
Anyone know anywhere that still has this strain available?
End of the Line Brewing Primary: Caramel Cider Secondary: Bourbon Vanilla Porter On tap: Some Sort of IPA, Cherry Cider Bottled: Belgian Sour (1st place winner Binny's Chicago Comp)
I am planning my first saison this week and am going to use this yeast as the HBS was out of 3711. From the info here, it seems it will be awesome.
Just picked up a vial of this today. I am just starting to venture out and experiment with different strains of yeast. Because this has bret in it along with the yeast, are there any special precautions I have to take with my equipment or is that just for lacto bugs??? Also I plan to make a starter and draw off a few vials to add to my frozen yeast bank. Is this stuff able to be frozen like everything else or will the bret have any effect of its ability to successfully freeze??
From what I've read starters are discouraged due to the different growth rates of sacc/Brett and the starter will throw off the "blend" ratio. Not that you can't it will just change the flavor profile.
Thanks for the info. I was definitely thinking of doing a starter. What are everyones thoughts about being able to freeze some samples for the yeast bank?

With new sources and new packaging, 2015 is under way in a big, bright way for The Oppenheimer Group's berry category.
The full-service produce marketer is now shipping its berry range in Sesame Street-branded "eat brighter!" packs. Sourcing from South America, Mexico, Florida and California, Oppy offers blackberry clamshells featuring Ernie, raspberries with Cookie Monster, blueberries showing Grover's furry face, and strawberries as red as Elmo on the label.
"With their intense color, berries lend themselves perfectly to the 'eat brighter!' concept," Jason Fung, director of category development for Oppy, said in a press release. "Displayed together, the packs present themselves as a Sesame Street 'destination' on the shelf. All of our currently seasonal berries are represented in the eye-catching packaging as part of this very important movement to increase fresh fruit and vegetable consumption among young families."
At the same time, the marketer is increasing its strawberry offerings significantly this season, building scale and enabling it to deliver more comprehensive berry programs.
"Last year we shipped California strawberries for the first time, testing the waters and assuring we could create a program that accommodated our customers' needs," said Fung. "We have built on that 'year one' effort through relationships with growers in Coachella, Oxnard and Salinas, so now we can serve more of our customers with larger organic and conventional California strawberry programs."
Fung noted that Oppy has entered full-fledged partnerships with high-quality berry producers, investing financially and strategically planning the season to optimize the retailer and consumer experience — while also creating a strong fiscal position for the growers. The program began in December and extends through September.
While Oppy's California strawberry program is growing, so are its berry offerings from other locales. The marketer is shipping Florida strawberries and — along with the industry — is anticipating more volume in the weeks ahead.
Recently, the first Oppy raspberries hit the market, sourced through new relationships with proven Mexican berry growers. Meanwhile, its import blueberry program from Peru and Chile are enjoying excellent momentum, Fung said.
"Berries have become a very important facet of the produce department, delivering a high dollar share to the bottom line," he said. "Because they are such a critical part of the mix, the quality and consistency has to be there 365 days a year."
Oppy has been building its berry category expertise relative to consumer insights, merchandising, logistics and other key areas in tandem with Total Berry in the United Kingdom, a fellow operating company under the Total Produce umbrella and European berry leader.
"We are proud to say that the Oppy berry program has evolved to the point that retailers can comfortably rely on it for continuous supply of high-quality fruit," Fung said.
Workers at the Hunts Point Terminal Market voted to approve a new, three-year contract, with 97 percent of workers voting "yes." The 1,300 workers, members of Teamsters Local 202, will receive significant wage increases in each year of the contract.
"It's our best wage and benefits package in two decades," Daniel Kane Jr., president of Teamsters Local 202, said in a press release.
Following the ratification vote, teamsters members and leaders said the ball is now in the New York City's court to ensure that Hunts Point stays competitive.
"This is only the first step in ensuring that Hunts Point Market remains a home for good jobs in the long term," Kane said in the release. "Now it's time for our city government to step up and ensure that this public property has the necessary infrastructure to meet 21st century needs and withstand the next hurricane."
The release stated that the facilities — located on an East River peninsula — have long needed renovation, and the urgency has only increased following Hurricane Sandy. Several mayoral administrations have considered projects to renovate Hunts Point Market, but no plan has yet moved forward.
"Hunts Point feeds New York," Kane said in the release. "Hunts Point employs the Bronx. We can't wait any longer to protect this vital resource for our city."
Unified Grocers has made a number of key internal promotions and additions to its leadership team. Key among the announced changes are three promotions within the company's senior management team. President of Market Centre Joe Falvey and Chief Marketing Officer Sue Klug have been elevated to executive vice president, and Chief Information Officer Gary Herman has been promoted to senior vice president.
"To continue our recent momentum will take imaginative and energetic leadership," Bob Ling, president and chief executive officer, said in a press release. "That means continuing to develop and add to our senior team, giving opportunities to those who have proved themselves ready to take the next step in their careers and adding the best talent from outside the company."
Falvey has been with the company since 1999 and has been instrumental in driving the successful growth of Unified's specialty division, Market Centre. Under his leadership, Market Centre has created new sales opportunities in growing categories such as organic, natural and ethnic foods.
Klug has served as chief marketing officer since joining Unified in 2012. She is responsible for all corporate marketing and communications activities, as well as the company's retail marketing service and retail technology functions. She has already elevated Unified's marketing efforts in a number of areas, developing new strategies including a robust scan data program giving retail insights to our retail members and the company's successful Celebremos! and MercadoSavings Hispanic marketing programs. In an expanded role, she is now responsible for strategic sourcing and real estate. In addition, Klug — working closely with members of the board — will take a leadership role in strategic planning.
Herman has been Unified's chief information officer since 2000, overseeing the company's information services function. Under his direction, Unified maintains state-of-the-art logistics systems and an extranet that ties together the company's vendors, buyers and retail members.
"Joe, Sue and Gary have proven track records of delivering solid results for our organization," said Ling. "All are dynamic leaders whose vision and passion have helped drive Unified's recent successes. They will play important roles in driving the next phase of the company's growth."
In addition, the company announced a number of additions to the executive team: Mike Brown has been promoted to vice president of retail services; Blake Larson has been promoted to vice president of accounting; Keith Miller has been promoted to vice president of Market Centre operations; and Ray VanWetten has been promoted to vice president of sales for the Pacific Northwest. Additionally, Unified welcomed a new member of the team, Gregg Bostick, who has joined the company as vice president of logistics.
One Banana announced its plans to increase its North American operations, including the appointment of produce industry veteran Craig Carlson as president of One Banana North America, effective immediately.
This North American expansion and new company structure are in keeping with One Banana's commitment to connecting with customers directly and maintaining consistent consumer accessibility.
"Our brand ethos is based on transparency and clear vertical integration," Fernando Bolaños Valle, chief executive officer of parent company AgroAmerica, said in a press release.
"As such, it is crucial that we are as close to our customers as possible and have a strong and effective North American-based team in place to service them. We are thrilled to have Craig on board to spearhead these efforts."Carlson will oversee One Banana's North American headquarters in Miami. He will report directly to Valle.
Prior to becoming One Banana's president, Carlson consulted on the development of the "One Banana" brand. He comes with over 35 years of experience in the retail and food service spaces. He previously served as senior vice president of produce for U.S. Foods and senior produce director for Walmart, among others.
"The food world has changed," Carlson said in the release. "People are rightly demanding more from produce companies. I am proud to join a company so committed to producing the highest-quality, most socially and ecologically responsible banana. I look forward to continuing the incredible progress we have made to date."
Westmoreland Sales Group, a leading Canadian greenhouse vegetable grower, has signed a two-year contract with IFCO Systems, a global provider of reusable packaging solutions for fresh products. Westmoreland is now shipping "Topline" brand tomatoes, peppers and cucumbers from its distribution centers in Ontario and Michigan to retailers across North America in IFCO RPCs.
Leamington, ON-based Westmoreland cited IFCO's history of excellent customer service and commitment to food safety as the main reasons it selected IFCO to be its RPC provider. Also important were IFCO's proximity to Westmoreland's facilities, ability to respond quickly and ability to supply RPCs to service the increasing retail demand for Westmoreland's product.
"We are working with IFCO to ensure our Topline products arrive to our retail customers in the best possible condition while lowering costs through the supply chain," Brian W. Blommaert, chief executive officer of Westmoreland, said in a press release. "The IFCO RPC solution also supports Westmoreland's commitment to the environment by helping to reduce the number of cardboard boxes used."
IFCO handles all RPC logistics for Westmoreland, from distribution to cleaning to re-entry into the supply chain. After each retail use, IFCO RPCs are folded, collected and shipped back to one of IFCO's service facilities, where they are sanitized and prepared for re-use.
"Westmoreland is a great partner, and we are pleased the company is using IFCO RPCs to deliver high-quality product to retailers in the U.S. and Canada," Dan Walsh, president of IFCO North America, said in the release. "We are constantly developing new solutions to address specific opportunities at companies like Westmoreland, and their move to our program is proof that trading partners and consumers benefit from working toward the common goal of greater service and safety."

something incredible is waiting to be known
I am a well-rounded and grounded individual. At least that is what my grandmother tells everyone in the senior citizen building. I have to remind her frequently I'm looking for a someone a little younger. I believe in the values of family and friends to uphold priorities in life. My caring attribute has helped me succeed in my profession, helping the less fortunate through my practice of anesthesiology. I would love to write an autobiography, but I will save that moment for a future email/conversation/coffee or drinks. I really have nothing to sell, I am just myself and know whoever I share it with will appreciate it. To all the NYC women, I work in NYC and spend most of my time there. A woman with an education, goals, vision, and direction is tremendously valued. A woman who is confident within herself and confident for her relationship. Someone who can maintain a stimulating and conversation without forgetting humor. A heavy dose of sarcasm is always appreciated. An attractive woman makes family a top priority. My ambition is to make the best out of every situation. I admire a woman who takes pride in her smile, and is not scared to eat a medium-rare steak on the first date Whether you are interested or not, I wish you success on here...

Im open to most music, but mostly listen to Reggae and hip-hop. I love to eat, one thing I missed most when living in California. Nothing compares to east coast food.
Spending time and relaxing with my family is always a priority. Given the opportunity, I will never turn down a sporting event. I prefer a lounge versus a club. I try my hardest to during the winter to go snowboarding as much as possible.

Hit-Boy - Grindin' My Whole Life
Artist: Hit-Boy
Producer: Hit-Boy
Album: We the Plug
Avg Rating: 2.5 ( 4 votes )
Now that we are nearing the end of the week, I bet you're worn out from a rough past few days of work or school. Think your four day grind is rough? It don't mean sh*t! Especially compared to Hit-Boy, who has informed us know he's been Grindin' My Whole Life on an effort from a currently-untitled, forthcoming HS87 (his label) compilation album. Though the project's details are still a relative mystery, you can get an idea of what the body of work may sound like thanks to the guest spots from N.No, B. Carr., Big Hit, Audio Push, Bmacthequeen, Kent M$NEY... in other words the entire HS87 roster. Hit-Boy, too, pulls double duty, cooking up the track's trippy, trap-laced beat and squeezing a 16 into an already dense effort. For more from Hit-Boy while you await the forthcoming full-length, check out his last solo Booth feature spot, 2013's SomeWhereInAmerica (Remix).

Big Boi - Shutterbug
Artist: Big Boi
Producer: Scott Storch
Album: Sir Luscious Left Foot: The Son of Chico Dusty
Avg Rating: 4.0 ( 80 votes )
I know it may seem like we've been hearing a lot from Big Boi lately, but the truth is the only non-guest work we've heard from the Outkast alum in the last six months was the funkdafied Fo Yo Sorrows. Well, thanks to a one-off deal with Def Jam Big's fantastically named Sir Luscious Left Foot: The Son of Chico Dusty album is back on track, and that means we should be hearing more new music like Shutterbug soon. Featuring some of the best Scott Storch production we've heard in a minute – talk about covering a lot of sonic ground – Shutterbug is Big Boi at his eclectically rhyming best, quickly alternating between old school Soul II Soul references ("back to life, back to reality…") and street laced boasts. Only one man could pull of a lyrical performance like that, and his name is Sir Luscious Left Foot. If the rest of The Son of Chico Dusty sounds this fresh and clean, we might be looking at a new school classic on May 4.

COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION We brewed it with peat and apple-wood smoked malt, so it has a nice smoky/malty character. The English noble hops take a bit of a backseat for the malt profile, but our head brewer, Evan, likens it to a smoked English Pale Ale/Amber.

*Sister Mary Rinaldi, director of development for the Salesian Sisters Roman Catholic order in New Jersey, told reporters in April that more than 2500 benefactors have paid $100 and up for nuns to pray for them daily. Rinaldi said the sisters are not selling their prayers; rather, she said, they will pray for anyone, but those who contribute money get special attention from their own designated nun, with proceeds to fund their retirement home. A Pennsylvania order has a similar program, "One on One with a Nazareth Nun."

Frank Mitchell was introducing his bill to plug a loophole in a state law that did not fully punish schoolteachers who have sex with their students, the chief inspector of schools in Great Britain was still dealing with fallout from his February remarks that teacher-student sex could sometimes be "experiential and educative" and should not necessarily result even in the teacher's firing.
Inside the Killer's Mind
*Ms. Suphatra Chumphusri, explaining why she killed her drug-dealing son in December in Chiang Rai, Thailand: "No matter how much I loved him, I had to do it for the sake of the general society." And according to the court-appointed psychiatrist examining last summer's U.S. Capitol shooter Russell Eugene Weston, Jr., the two deaths were unavoidable because Weston had to get the "ruby satellite" in a Senate office in order to stop the Capitol Hill cannibalism that had produced rotting corpses, which would otherwise infect everyone with "Black Heva, the most deadliest disease known to mankind."
*Latest Highway Truck Spills: Several tons of chocolate bars on Interstate 80 near Grinnell, Iowa, March (which caught fire and burned out of control because of the chocolate's oil); a truckload of rock salt in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, March (giving great protection against ice to a small patch of E. Carson Street); a tanker truck of tequila near Opelousas, Louisiana, June; and twenty tons of explosive black powder just before rush hour in Springfield, Virginia, at the Capital Beltway's busiest interstate interchange.
*In February Japanese tourist Satoshi Kinoshida, age 48, was hospitalized in Taipei, Taiwan, after he tripped at a hotel and fell onto a chopstick he was holding and had it penetrate about an inch into his right eye socket. (It missed his eyeball, and he was not seriously hurt.) And in March a twenty-year-old man in Thisted, Denmark, had to be taken from a bar to a machine shop late at night so a technician could disassemble a condom machine in which his finger had become stuck.

Everybody I talked to in class last year is gone now, in different classes, so I have new "friends". They're completely unaware that I'm gay because I never new them until now, yet one of them keeps saying things like "you're gay" and shit. They're usually pretty cool, though. One of the people at my lunch this year is someone I've sat at the same table with, and he's ultra-conservative (though not homophobic; he just seems obsessed with economic conservatism). But he seems okay. Still, this isn't nearly as awesome as last year. All my friends now are nerds.
and are very disappointed.
That's redick!
Whoop, it changed. Nevermind. My comment is now irrelevant.

The story starts off with a the main character Dai telling a story about how the monsters on an island he's living was possessed by a evil demon, and how a swordsman came to the land and defeated the evil demon and converted all of the monsters back into their original forms. But he immediately gets snap back into reality when his master Burasu hits him over his head. Burasu is disappointed by Rai's inability to learn a magic spell that he's trying to teach him.
Afterwords, Dai sees a ship approaching, that's filled with bandits that's planning to steal a flying golden slime; which they believe is worth a lot of gold. Dai assumes they were heroes and greets everyone. The bandits decide to fool Dai into thinking that they were heroes, just so they can have Dai lead them to the golden slime. Dai calls all of the monsters on the island and then goes and gets Gome. Burasu arrives and notices that something was wrong. The Bandits then attacks all the monsters and steal Gome away from Dai. The bandits shale away planning to sale the slime for at a high price.
Dai decides to go after the bandits and save Gome. He has the magic tube that was giving to him from Burasu, the magic tube can entrap anyone inside it. Dai then calls a Chimera out and has it fly him to the bandits' location.
The four bandits arrive to a castle where they meet the King and his followers. To the King and his followers, the four bandits are seen as heroes. Delorin, the leader of the group, shows everyone the golden metal slime. The King and the others are impressed, and reward whatever the "heroes" want, and Delorin was also given with the crown of champions; a crown that's given to those that's sought as a true hero.
The other bandit, Zurubon, goes out and shops for clothing that's sold throughout the town. She then encounter a mushroom monster in disguise, that unleashes a gas that makes everyone around it past out. The monster carries Zurubon away to a hideout where Dai and his slimes are located. Dai then interrogates Zurubon, who is all tied up, for the whereabouts of Gome, the golden metal slime. He summons out an anteater monster and has it tickling Zurubon's feet by licking them. She caves in and tells Dai where Gome is, she tells him that Gome is at the Kings garden, where a party is being held.
Dai sneaks into the castle and sees Gome unhappy in his cage. Dai then summons out all of the monsters from his magic tubes to help free Gome. Dai gets the cage that Gome is in and runs off, but is trapped by two of the bandits; Dai unleashes more monsters to save him. Dai then sees that his monsters where defeated by Delorin, and then engages into a sword fight with him. But Dai is no match for Delorin's swordsmanship, about to be killed by Delorin, Dai uses a special magic tube that's given by Burasu. The magic tube contains monsters that Dai has never seen before, but he has them attack Delorin and the other two bandits. Zurubon manages to escape and has the slimes, that are all in a net, held hostage and threatens to kill the slimes if Dai doesn't give up Gome. But Dai uses the magic tube and has the slimes combined into one giant slime that breaks out of the net and squashes Zurubon. Then Dai entraps Delorin and his magic tube.
After all that, Dai immediately pasts out from all of the action. The King then realizes that the four bandits aren't not really heroes as they resulted to tactics like attempting to Dai, a little boy that was nearly defeated, and taking someone hostage. The King sees Dai as the true hero and gives him the crown of champions. A couple days later, Dai is back on the island searching for his crown. Burasu tells Dai that he's going to be a magic users and nothing else. Dai sees that as unfair and begs Burasu for the crown. the chapter ends with Gome flying around the island with the crown on it's head.
Another ship arrives on the Delmarin Isle, Dai panics due to his assumption that the ship is a war ship that's about to attack. Burasu corrects him by saying that the ship is a Holy Ship, a ship filled with sages. Three characters introduces themselves, Temajin, the bishop of the kingdom of Papunika, a sage named Baron, and his sister Princess Leona, who is looking to become a sage. They arrive to the island due to their knowledge about Dai from the king of Romos, the king that gave Dai the crown of champions. The sages seek a place that's closes to the Earth God as part of a ritual for Leona to become a sage. Burasu tells them that place is a large cave deep within the forest. Burasu then appoints Dai to lead them to the cave.
As they were walking to the cave, they encounter a large monster which spooks everyone but Dai. Dai walks up to it and tells him to go some place else. Leona is impressed, and then ask if Dai can perform magic, but says that he's unable to. They make it to the cave and the guards prepare for the ritual. Dai is then given a dagger from Leona, thinking it suits him better. Then a mysterious person appears and summons out a demon scorpion out of a magic tube, attacking everyone including the Leona. Dai pulls out the dagger that was given to him, and slays the scorpion.
Dai sees Leona unconscious, Gome tells Dai that she is poison, and that a cure spell can save her. But Dai is not sure what to do due to the fact he can not perform a spell.
Picking up where the last chapter left off, Dai tells Gome to go get help. He then sees Baron, who reveals his true colors. Baron reveals that he was the one that released the demon scorpion so it will kill Princess Leona, and have the control of Papunika to Temajin. He then uses his magic to combusted the ground and have Dai and Leona fall into a large cavern.
Gome then warns Burasu about what has happen, just when he was about to head for Dai and Leona, he is stop by Temajin and his guards. Burasu overpowers them and summons out all of the monsters on the island to fight off Temajin and his guards. Baron arrives inside of a killer machine that he powered with his magic. Burasu and the monsters fight off Baron with all their might, but it's no use as Baron still stands.
Dai and a weaken Leona are trap inside a cavern. Dai then blames himself for not learning how to use a single magic spell, but Leona reminds Dai that he shouldn't blame himself as there's many people that don't know how to use magic. As it looks like Leona was on her last breath, the sight of Leona's condition triggers something within Dai, a big explosion occurs nears Dai and Leona's location. Dai is then seen with a marking on his forehead, implying that he must have gain a new level of strength.
Dai finally is able to perform magic spells. Manages to get himself and Leona out of the cavern, and heads for Baron. As they arrive, Dai sees Baron, about to kill Burasu, but is stop by Dai. Temajin gets upsets at Baron because of his failure to kill the Princess. Baron immediately attacks Dai with a giant arrow being shot at him, but is missed.
Dai tells Burasu that Leona is poison and he must use the cure spell to extract the poison. Baron then tries to kill Burasu before he even attempts to heal Leona. Baron shoots out another arrow at Burasu, but Dai counters it with a wind spell, which makes the arrow missed its target. Dai tries to fight off Baron's killer robot with his magic, but the strength of the killer robot still stands. Baron then gets possessed by the killer robot and betrays Temajin.
Dai uses his dagger to try to damage the machine, by Baron sees it as useless. Baron gets fooled as Dai was attacking the same spot, which he manages to crack a hole. Dai then uses a fire spell, the flames of the spell enters into the hole, inside of the robot, and Baron is attacked, then defeated.
Everything becomes good again as Leona is saved as the poison healed out of her body with the use of the cure spell from Burasu. Leona completes the ritual, and becomes a sage. The Papunika authority finds out about Temajin and Barons' scheme, and get taken into custody. Leona thanks Dai for all his help, and leaves the island. Dai attempts to use his magic again, but goes back into having trouble performing a spell.
The entire monsters of Monster Isle have been possessed, causing them to turn into murderous creatures. Dai sees what's going on, and tells Burasu about it. Burasu is also been infected, and is trying to fight it off. He's under the suspicion that the Demon King has been revived. Burasu tells Dai to leave the island before he or the other monsters attempt to do something harmful to him, but Dai refuses and wants to help Burasu, and the monsters of the island.
Then the monsters charge towards Dai with raged looks in their eyes. As that was happening, two men sail in, one of them uses his sword to make a huge marking all around the island at a extremely fast rate; it is a barrier that protects all of the monsters from the control of the Demon King. The person then introduces himself as Avan De Ginual, a hero training instructor, and his student, Pop. Avan and Pop head to the island, due to the information that was given to them about Dai's help in saving Princess Leona from the Kingdom of Papunika. Avan then tells Dai and Burasu about Burasu's theory coming true about the Demon King being revived, and having all of the monsters attacking the people all over the world.
Dai's plans becomes clear to him, that he must defeat the Demon King. But two gargoyles fly to the island and attempt to attack Dai, but is blocked off by the barrier that was created by Avan. Avan tells Pop to destroy the two gargoyles. He takes down one, but is then cast a spell over him by the other gargoyle, which makes him unable to fight. That's when Dai steps in and fights the gargoyle off with the dagger that was given to him by Leona. But the gargoyle manage to make Dai's lose his dagger and has him defenseless, but Avan tosses Dai his sword, which Avan clams it's a legendary sword. Dai unleashes a powerful swipe that splits the gargoyle in two.
Avan is in shock by what Dai was able to do as he admits that it was some random sword that he bought at a Roadside Tool Shop. Dai, Gome, Burasu, and the rest of the monsters are in celebration by Dai's victory.
Avan tells Dai that he can make him into a hero just in one week through a "Special Hard Course." Pop is against the idea as no one has never been able to complete the special hard course. Bur Dai accepts the training, knowing that he must save Princess Leona and the rest of the world from the Demon King's terror.
The special hard course consist of Dai running along the island with boulders tied to his waist, freezing a ocean wave, and mediating while being upside-down. For his first day, Avan carries in a giant boulder that Avan wants Dai to cut. Dai uses the "legendary sword," but the sword breaks once it makes contact. Dai then uses his other weapon, the dagger, but fails to do any damage, so Avan decide to save that part of the training some other time.
As the end of the first day approaches, Avan ask Dai to cut the giant boulder again, but Dai is too weak from his training and feels he can not do it. Avan says to him to "trick his mind" into thinking that he can do it. Dai then takes a swipe at the boulder, and surprisingly damages it. Avan explains that when he is tried and confuse, Dai limited himself into one action, which made him able to cut the boulder.
The next day, Avan is amazed to see Dai's swordsmanship has improved, giving Avan a serious challenge. Avan then shows Dai his finishing technique that he wants Dai to learn at the end of the second day, "Avan Slash." Pop, who is behind a bush watching the training going on, is spotted by Avan and tells him that he's welcome to participate in the training.

Prosroominess Consmaintenance
It's American — it's the best family vehicle that's not a minivan. However, it's still american made and that means reliability is still a problem. Check the Acadia forums for all the problems with the Acadia. Why does GM keep putting this V6 and it's transmission with all the problems its experiencing? Primary Use: Family transportation

2007 GMC Acadia SLE
ProsI love my Acadia. It has been pretty reliable. Ive had a couple of issues with it; but overall a pretty good vehicle. ConsSomething going on with the power steering making a odd and annoying noise, service air bag and the low oil pressure light keeps coming on; but have been told that they are nothing to worry about and so far it is true.
Looks And Handles Terrific. Love This Vehicle — I love the way it handles; especially in the winter. I was a bit worried about it as I have always had four wheel drive vehicles; but it handles possibly better. Lots of room and love the third row seating. Primary Use: Family transportation |
2007 GMC Acadia SLT-2 AWD
ProsIt has a lot of space and seats are confortable. ConsBuild quality. Multiple problems, tranny dropped at 50k miles, A/C, headlights, brakes.... the list goes on of problems.
It Looks Great, But It Is A Maintenance Nightmare — If this car represents 'American' build quality, then I will look elsewhere. We have had nothing but issues ever since we purchased this. It came with GMC certification warranty and we purchased the extended warranty(thank god). We have still had to pay all the co-pays, a lot of the issued are common sense cheap crap. Primary Use: Family transportation |
2007 GMC Acadia SLT-1 AWD
ProsGreat for gear and outdoor adventures and friends Consthe automatic back hatch can be an annoying feature
Get Your Go On! — A comfortable roamy, safe vehicle that gets good gas milage. great for road trips and gear. Spaciously comfortable for car camping. Fabulous sound system Bosc speakers, back seat has own system to plug head phones into. I have really enjoyed this acadia. It's just big for our driveway and only having one child. Primary Use: Family transportation |
2007 GMC Acadia SLT-2
ProsInterior space, Comfort, Fuel Economy Consnone
Great Car For A Family. — The Acadia has a very roomy interior. It also has a large cargo area. Access to the rear seats is easy. The car rides very well and gets great gas milage. Loaded with safety features. It is a great family car. Primary Use: Family transportation |
2007 GMC Acadia SLT-1
ProsGreat gas mileage for its class. Lots of room for family and friends. Extremely comfortable for long car rides. ConsIt occasionally will have a manufacturers recall but all are taken care of and up to date.
It Is A Stylish And Comfortable Ride. Easy On The Gas And Budget. — I love the way it rides and handles. I am addicted to the heated seats and XM radio. Very easy to drive and easy to afford. Interior is easy to keep clean with plenty of cup holders for everyone. Love it! |
2007 GMC Acadia SLE AWD
Prosstyle Consreliability
Nice Looking Poorly Built Cheap — Relaibility, after 9 recals in 2 1/2 year not exactly good quality. Had to change my timing belt because the oil wear prematurely. Wipers failed, door caster broke, Passenger seat broke. I am not impressed and will never by a GM anymore Primary Use: Family transportation |
2007 GMC Acadia SLT-1
Prosplenty of space Conshad a few recalls just like other first year models...big risk is the timer belt will go out of sync on every so many models no matter what year. It will send rods through the engine block and the whole system will blow and the car will not be able to operate. The entire engine will have to be replaced...my radio was shorted and also had to be replaced
Best Car I've Driven — very hardy light-weight truck. Fits 8, blind spots will take some getting used to. Automatic mirror adjustment is nice. Plenty of hidden compartments and cup holders. Even if it isn't a 4 wheel drive it still can handle the rough terrain like a 4 wheeler. Can take some hits and damage as well...5 star all around in crash testing Primary Use: Commuting to work |
2007 GMC Acadia
ProsDrive this car because i own it! ConsNothing sucks about it!
Perfect Family Truck — I like this car because its exterior and interior are really nice and it is very easy to handle, i also like it is because it doesn't use much gas. This car is very spacious and has a very stylish way of providing the space needed. Primary Use: Family transportation |

Sennheiser is always a highlight of CES for me. Usually because of new products, but this year it was because I got to spend a little time with someone I hold in very high regard.
Zounds!? Maker of Urbanears, Coloud, Marshall, and Molami headphones a show highlight!? What!?
Missed this amp at RMAF and was bound and determined to catch up at CES. Some neat features there worth exploring.
Audio Plus Services is a U.S. distributer for foreign-made high-end audio products, and was featuring some entry-level Micromega gear, and a very nice looking Pathos headphone amp.
I think InnerFidelity needs to have more reviews on table radios and boomboxes. Tivoli is likely to figure into that equation quite nicely.
Perfect Sound? Dido headphones? Never heard of them. Slipped on a pair...yowza, these sound pretty good!
When I first got wind of the French boutique headphone company Aedle their website was just a logo and the words "Coming Soon." With every tid-bit of info I've seen since, I became more and more intrigued.
Unbutton your shirt and flash that fat gold necklace, we're gonna god for a ride in a Ferrari...headphone.
There was certainly a big PR buzz going around prior to CES promoting Motorheadphones. Rock is bigger than rap; rocker endorsed headphones should be just as big as rapper endorsed cans...one would think.
I'm rough on stuff...very rough. I could break a bowling ball in a padded room. That's why every smartphone and pad I own lives in an Otterbox Defender series case. I was really curious about new stuff from Otterbox, and boy am I glad I stopped by their booth.

My thought is not so much not being able to use it. More so in the after effect of sitting in court with the BG's family saying how much of a good guy he was and how he never meant to hurt anyone and all that bull$#!+.
A way to say that he "knew" you had a gun pointed at him and the visual and verbal command was given and he still decided to advance.
I'm sure theres a ton of holes in my logic, but thats the thought I have.

I made the choice at around age 12 to skip all "required" visitations with my mom. Not because I was being manipulated but because I truly did not want to go.
How far apart do you live? Can your hubby take her out for an evening for dinner or a walk where he can talk to her and discuss how she feels? Twelve can be a difficult age and if she has four younger sibs to deal with when she comes to visit she may not have the opportunity to express her feelings uninterrupted. Perhaps a little one-on-one time with dad would provide her with an opportunity to discuss the situation and you could go from there. If she truly doesn't want to visit in the way it is currently set up it might be time to make some adjustments to the visitation schedule. |
As kids get towards 12 their social lives become very important and it's really difficult to spend most of your vacation time far away from your friends and activities.
(this is not legal advice)
A judge generally will give a 12 yo consideration (exactly how much depends on the child and the judge and the jurisdiction), but a judge won't (usually) allow a child to wholesale refuse a relationship with a parent unless there's abuse, etc. So a schedule might change to accommodate a child's wishes/activities, but no judge I know of will actually allow a child to decide she doesn't want to see her father anymore ad change the order accordingly. Good luck. |

1. Suddenly, out of the blue almost there appeared in the Middle East a powerful force seemingly moved by a desire to set up an Islamic state, a Caliphate no less.
2. And this force has been amazingly successful. They have literally conquered swathes of Iraq and have set up a Government. They are set to advance further and the Iraqi forces have not really been able to stop them.
3. Where did they come from? Just like the Taliban they were created by the United States of America.

A community in Warren County, New Jersey has expressed concerns with traffic light cameras aimed at keeping people from running red lights.
But now, the state's legislature is considering adding speed enforcement cameras too.
Pohatcong Township's mayor is trying to stop it dead in the water.
The red-light cameras were implemented through a pilot program about four years ago, and expire in December.
The legislature could choose to not renew the program. It could also go as far as expanding camera capabilities.
Pohatcong Township Mayor James Kern believes that would be a mistake, given the headaches the current cameras are already causing.
"I think that wanting to expand it is, simply put, crazy because I can only imagine the problems that are going to happen if you have speed cameras issuing citations as well," Kerns said.
Drivers have complained about the accuracy of the current technology.
"I think they cause more problems than they solve. I have seen a lot of people stop very short, and come very close to rear-ending each other," said Joseph Torres.
"The lights are timed such, so that there isn't enough time in the center to actually get through before the light changes. I understand from some friends, they have been given tickets because they are slightly over the white line when they stop," said Eileen Page.
Other complaints include long delays in the time it takes for tickets to be issued.
"The tickets for the whole state of New Jersey, from what I understand, the company had a computer problem. State law in New Jersey says the citations have to be sent out within a certain period of time and they could not hit that period of time. So all the people that got tickets in that window, the tickets were essentially void because the people were not given the proper notification of the summons," Kerns said.
For those reasons, Kerns is pushing for an ordinance that would prohibit the cameras for speed-enforcement use within the township.
"I want Pohatcong Township to be proactive and make sure the cameras don't turn into speed cameras as well," Kerns said.
In a recent report, the New Jersey Department of Transportation said the cameras are working, but added more data was needed for a final assessment.
American Traffic Solutions claims the current technology is improving driver behavior.
Council will introduce the ordinance at Tuesday's meeting. It could vote on it as early as mid September.

As the BugWeek Web Team prepared the FAQ document that you can read here, one question in particular sparked discussion — what are the biggest bugs in Florida?
Like fireflies? Here, Dr. Marc Branham "sheds some light" on their situation.
This word handily describes the activity timetable for some moths, flies and beetles. It may also prevent embarrassment for some vampire-lit fans.
We wanted to end the 2014 BugWeek on a high note. So here's one of the most remarkable creatures on Earth.
"Corbicula" is pronounced more or less the way it looks — "corr-BICK-yuh-luh" — and it's a good example of a technical term that's needed, but doesn't necessarily get the job done any better than the common term.
We were going to just call these bugs "booklice," but it seemed unfair to use a common name when these little guys and gals are so closely associated with intellectual pursuits.
In the entomological world, "obligate" (pronounced "OBB-lih-gutt") is an adjective that means "by necessity."
Move over, lovebugs. You're not the only flying plague in this state.
Technically, the term "ootheca" can refer to any insect egg case, but it's usually associated with the egg cases produced by cockroaches and mantids.
First things first – this is NOT a palmetto bug, at least not by the BugWeek Web Team's definition.
Today's Bug Word of the Day is "setae" (pronounced "SEE-tee.")

ClassicsOnline Home » MENDELSSOHN: String Symphonies, Vol. 3
Penguin Guide 01-Jan-2009
Felix Mendelssohn-Bartholdy (1809 - 1847)
String Symphony No.10 in B minor String Symphony No.11 in F major String Symphony No.12 in G minor String Symphony No.13 in C minor (Sinfoniesatz)
Felix Mendelssohn was born in Hamburg in 1809, son of the banker Abraham Mendelssohn and grandson of the great Jewish thinker Moses Mendelssohn, the model for Lessing's Nathan the Wise, the epitome of tolerance in a generally intolerant world. In 1812 the family moved to Berlin after the French occupation of Hamburg and it was there that Mendelssohn received his education, in music as a pupil of Carl Zelter, for whom the boy seemed a second Mozart. As a child he was charming and precocious, profiting from the wide cultural interests of his parents and relations, excelling as a pianist and busy with composition after composition. In 1816 he was baptized a Christian, a step that his father took six years later, accepting what Heine described as a ticket of admission into European culture, although it was one not always regarded as valid by prejudiced contemporaries.
Abraham Mendelssohn sought the best advice when it carne to his son's choice of career. Cherubini, director of the Paris Conservatoire, was consulted, and, while complimenting Abraham Mendelssohn on his wealth, agreed that his son should become a professional musician, advice given during the course of a visit to Paris in 1825, when Mendelssohn met many of the most distinguished composers and performers of the day. In Berlin his career took shape, with prolific composition and activity as a pianist and as a conductor. His education was to include a period of travel throughout Europe, a Grand Tour that took him as far north as Scotland and as far south as Naples, his journeys serving as sources of inspiration.
In 1835 Mendelssohn was appointed conductor of the Leipzig Gewandhaus Orchestra. There were, at the same time, other commitments to be fulfilled in a short career of intense activity. In Leipzig he established as eries of historical concerts, continuing the revival of earlier music on which he had embarked under Zelter with the Berlin performance of Bach's St. Matthew Passion in 1829. At the same time he gave every encouragement to contemporary composers, even to those for whom he felt little sympathy. At the insistence of the Prussian King Friedrich Wilhelm IV he accepted an official position in Berlin, but this failed to give him the satisfaction he had found in Leipzig, where he established the Conservatory in 1843 and where he spent his final years until his death at the age of thirty-eight on 4th November 1847, six months after the death of his beloved sister Fanny.
Mendelssohn wrote his twelve String Symphonies between 1821 and 1823, adding, on 29th December, a final thirteenth, the Sinfoniesatz. The first seven were all composed in 1821, with the eighth a year later, dated 27th November 1822, and the ninth, tenth, eleventh and twelfth, completed in March, May, July and September 1823 respectively. The thirteenth symphony, started in December that year, was replaced by a fully orchestrated work, to become his Symphony No.1 in C minor, Opus 11. The string symphonies were written when Mendelssohn was a pupil of Zelter and reflect the inclinations of the teacher and Mendelssohn's own clear debt to earlier classical models, with an increasing interest in the contrapuntal practices of Bach and Handel.
String Symphony No.10 in B minor survives in the form of a single movement, which may have been followed by others, now lost. It starts with a slow introduction that suggests something of Haydn. This is followed by a dramatic Allegro that has about it much of the idiom that Mendelssohn was to make his own. The first subject is in an ominous mood, followed by a lyrical second subject, material developed with all characteristic élan.
String Symphony No.11 in F major was not numbered and is a more extended work than the others, with its five movements. It starts with a solemn Adagio introduction, followed by an Allegro in which traces of Mozart or of Schubert might be detected, yet with an increasingly original voice. There is a return to the mood of the opening before the movement comes to an energetic and dramatic end. The Scherzo that follows makes use of a Swiss folk-song, an Emmental wedding-dance, a provenance that suggests the final use of percussion. This reminiscence of a holiday in Switzerland is absorbed into a more sophisticated classical musical idiom, in the manner of Haydn, until its last re-appearance. There is an Adagio of gently moving beauty and mature assurance, leading to a Minuet, a burst of energy that provides an immediate contrast, relaxing into a more lyrical Trio. The last movement includes the necessary late classical ingredient of counterpoint in its fugal writing, a Baroque legacy from which Mendelssohn had profited and which he here absorbs into an idiom increasingly his own.
Mendelssohn's String Symphony No.12 in G minor starts with a slow Baroque introduction, leading to a fugue with an initially descending scale subject, to which secondary material provides a contrast. There is an intensely felt Andante and a vigorous final Allegro molto that strikes an immediate dramatic attitude. Here again there are contrapuntal episodes, contrasts of texture, as smaller groups of instruments are used in the manner of chamber music, and hints of music soon to come in the following year or two.
The Sinfoniesatz in C minor was replaced by the subsequent Symphony No.1 in C minor for full orchestra, written three months later and originally bearing the numbering of thirteen. The single movement work, String Symphony No.13, starts with the dotted rhythms of a Baroque French overture. Scored for double violas, it continues with an Allegro molto fugal movement, contrasting ascending and descending thematic material.
Northern Chamber Orchestra Formed in 1967, the Northern Chamber Orchestra has established itself as one of England's finest chamber ensembles. Though often augmented to meet the requirements of the concert programme, the orchestra normally contains 24 musicians and performs both in concert and on disc without a conductor. Their repertoire, ranges from the baroque era to music of our time, and they have gained a reputation for imaginative programme planning. Concerts take the orchestra throughout the North of England and it has received four major European bursaries for its achievements in the community. The orchestra has undertaken a series of eighteen century recordings for Naxos, featuring symphonies of Haydn, Mozart, Beck and Hofmann.
Nicholas Ward Nicholas Ward was born in Manchester in 1952, the son of parents who had met as members of the Hallé Orchestra. In consequence music played an important part in his life from childhood, allowing him, after less successful attempts as a pianist, to learn the violin and, at the age of twelve, to form his own string quartet. This last continued for some five years, until he entered the Royal Northern College of Music in Manchester, where he studied with Yossi Zivoni and later, in Brussels, with André Gertier. In 1977 Nicholas Ward moved to London, where he joined the Melos Ensemble and the Royal Philharmonic, when the orchestra worked under Antál Dorati as its Principal Conductor. He became co-leader of the City of London Sinfonia in 1984, a position followed by appointment as leader of the Northern Chamber Orchestra, of which he became Music Director two years later, directing from the violin. In this form the orchestra has won high regard for its work both in the concert hall and the broadcasting studio.

No frills, but didn't need 'em!; location is great
Posted May 29, 2014 on Hotels.comCame to Playa to dive cenotes, and previously stayed at the Albatros which used to be next door to this hotel. The location to the beach, 5th ave, and dive shops make this an ideal place to stay for divers. It was an easy walk each morning to Scuba Playa which was just one block over. Also close are great restaurants and shopping on 5th ave just 1/2 block away. Room was clean, not extravagant, if you need a super soft amazing mattress, this ain't the place for ya. But for diving it was great. Wi-fi was fair... although good at times and slow or dropping at others. There was literally only one power outlet in my room so I'm glad I brought a surge surpressed power strip to plug all my electronics and rechargable dive and camera gear into. Also, room had an ocean view but was obscured quite a bit from the trees in the courtyard. But overall nice place, I would stay again.

Beach front, quaint
Posted Feb 3, 2014Pros: Great for going out and spending money on adventures.
Cons: The overall state of the rooms. The sinks were sometimes hard to get the water to not run on the actual sink basin. Also the beds could be better.
Location: Beach front, enough said. Middle of Playa del Carmen off of 5th Ave allowing for shopping and food. Also centralized for excursions.
The rooms could do with a bit of remodeling to make them nicer, but the overall feel was quaint. It had beach front access and right off of 5th Ave which allowed for a wide variety of food and culture.

Great location, right on beach
Posted Nov 14, 2013Pros: Service from entire staff was excellent! Perfect location right off 5th Ave.
Cons: Owner needs to spend $$ for exterior cosmetic repairs. The Staff certainly takes pride in their jobs, but need support from owner to do his part.
Location: Right off 5th Ave, close to many great restaurants. Also, ferry to Cozumel is a short walking distance as well as bus station.
Service from entire staff was superb! Juanita our housekeeper was awesome. We have stayed at this hotel many times and have not been disappointed.
