Not blaming Toker for the loss. He wasn't bad, he just wasn't as good as henrik. Still I find myself wondering: if the habs start Budaj in game three and then bring in Dubnyk for game four, that's gotta be a record, right? - Comment on About last night … (2014-05-13 12:13:53)
Exactly. They've looked pretty thuggish once games are out of reach. But with the game still in the balance, they have to either figure out how to kill a penalty or else play nice. - Comment on About last night … (2014-05-13 12:01:41)
Pretty sure most Bruins fans think "fast" and "skillful" are insults. Be careful, you're coming dangerously close to poking the bear with that comment. - Comment on About last night … (2014-05-13 11:37:26)
But of course the nhl is a place to make mistakes. Price, Subban and Patch were all brought up quick and all made mistakes- they still do on occasion. They all developed into fine nhl players. Is it better for a kid's development to stay in the ahl or to be brought up and learn from mistakes made with the big team? That's a tough question, and probably depends on the individual. But if a kid is good enough to get nhl minutes, if you admit that he would have done better than the veterans, I think it's worth the risk. - Comment on About last night … (2014-05-13 11:12:56)
I was at that game in 2010- best hockey experience of my life. One difference is that Subban had played a grand total of two NHL games prior to that point. Beaulieu has played over twenty, and has generally looked pretty darn good. I don't think there's anything wrong with people saying they disagree with the coach or gm, just like commenters might disagree with politicians, even though they have no experience in government. If I was a coach or gm, my team probably wouldn't win a game all year. But as a fan, I've been wanting to see Beaulieu instead of Murray/Cube all season. I'm feeling pretty vindicated this morning. - Comment on About last night … (2014-05-13 10:53:04)
Elated to see Beaulieu in the lineup last night. I thought he had looked very good during the season. It seemed like MB thought likewise; the Diaz trade seemed to indicate that NB had supplanted Diaz in the lineup as a puck-moving dman on the third pairing. But then- and correct me if I'm wrong- Beaulieu was kept down in Hamilton following the olympic break because he wasn't hustling enough with the bulldogs, and lost his spot to Murray/Cube, who are nowhere near his skill level. He should have been there all along, but good on MT for FINALLY giving the kid another shot. - Comment on About yesterday afternoon … (2014-05-04 02:24:46)
Bold prediction: if MT can use the last change to keep Chara away from the top line, I think DD will play a lot better... and Patch gets the gwg. Hopefully that home ice advantage everybody's talking about is more than just Ginette Reno. - Comment on About yesterday afternoon … (2014-05-04 00:10:09)
Outstanding - Comment on About yesterday afternoon … (2014-05-04 00:05:57)
Don't take this the wrong way, but they shouldn't let you back across the border if the habs manage to win the series. - Comment on About yesterday afternoon … (2014-05-03 23:55:21)
Le Centre Bell is already booked Monday and Wednesday night. As much fun as it is to blame Bettman, this is Lana del Rey's fault. However, feel free to blame Bettman for the afternoon game that we'll almost definitely have next Saturday.

Hello everyone I'm new to brewing and thought I would post my brews so that I could get some advice from the veterans as well as input from the newbies like myself FIRST BREW (Really second, I messed up my first one pretty badly, turned sour and terrible, my mom still liked it tho...) Scottish Ale (90 Schilling clone) Brought 4.5 gallons of water to boil Turned down to medium heat (steamy) and steeped 1 lb crystal 60L as well as 8 oz chocolate malt for 30 minutes, then discarded the grains Took the kettle off the heat and added 7 lb Amber LME (which I had warming in a hot water bath in the sink to help dissolve into the boiling water) trying my best to keep it from sticking to the bottom Put back on stove and brought to boil, added 1 oz cascade hops (60 min), 1 oz cluster and 0.5 oz liberty (30 min), then 0.5 oz liberty (10 min) all of them in hop socks to limit the trub Took kettle off heat and immersed wort chiller and covered with foil to keep air from contaminating it. Watching the temperature go down to 70 degrees and then I siphoned to the fermenter which helped to aerate the wort. (I had put 1 gallon of bottled water in the fermenter and ahead of siphoning so that I could aerate the water easier) it came to about 4 gallons so I added another gallon of bottled water to make up the difference to make a total of 5 gallons I pitched the SAFALE US-05 yeast which I had rehydrated previously and put on the lid as well as the airlock which I filled with sanitizing solution I put the fermenter in my basement which I hope will be in my desired temp range Will update once I hit my next stage PLEASE lend any advice you might have, Thanks!
Your recipe for Scottish ale is one of my favorites. I have brewed about 20 batches that are similar to what you describe. My preferred strength is 9 lbs LME plus additional 2 lbs of brown sugar after 3 days in the primary. I also store in the basement where the temp is in the mid 60's. My heavier ABV batches require at least 3 months in the secondary, so I have 10 carboys to allow long storage times of multiple batches.
How do you think it will turn out if I primary for teo weeks and bottle condition for another 2? I started at 1.061 for my OG so it looks like it should turn into around 6.2 %ABV, you were saying you kept in secondary for 3 months I was just curious if mine would still taste good. As for the brown sugar did you just throw 2 lbs straight brown sugar into your fermenter? will there be any solids left over? I'm using a plastic bucket with lid and airlock so I should just toss and seal back up? Thanks for the advice
Yeah I think I will keep to my recipe this time around being that I really just want to finish a beer that is actually drinkable! My first brew was so sour and nasty...ugh... I need to redeem myself! I want to start another one soon in time for christmas, i would love to hear any favorite recipes for a winter brew that an amateur like me could accomplish, that would be sweeeeeeeet
7lbs of LME will just barely be done in the primary in 10 weeks. It's close but you'll probably be ok. The taste will be fine but if there are any unfermented sugars remaining it will cause a hangover if you drink more than one or two. Two weeks to bottle condition afterward is ok. Yes, I put 2 lbs of brown sugar (from the grocery store) straight into the primary. I used to use a 6 gallon carboy for the primary, and that required melting the sugar in hot water in order to pour it. But about a year ago I started using a 10 gallon plastic wine fermenting bucket as my beer primary. It's waaaay easier to use and clean, and the beer turns out the same. To add the sugar I just lift off the top (the lid has a rubber seal, so it's partially airtight) and dump the sugar in. After a couple of days the granules of sugar are gone, there are no solids remaining.
I typo-ed in my original post, I meant to say two weeks for fermentation, not ten weeks which some people thought. I'm planning on bottling after the two weeks and bottle condition for two more weeks or longer. Is it true that the beer will thin out if I pitch the brown sugar straight tomorrow (which it will have been fermenting for 72 hours)? Given that I won't be fermenting for ten weeks but only two? I'm just trying to see what I can do to make it a lil more of a holiday beer

Black Ops II tops Steam's best seller list and does double duty on the GameStop Impulse chart, where both standard and deluxe editions hit the heights, but Hitman: Absolution's pre-release hype hangs in the balance after a mixed critical reception, many reviewers preferring the 2006 success Hitman: Blood Money.
Meanwhile, GamersGate and GOG returned to their roots, with GamersGate's chart stuffed with the Crusader Kings II strategy games and add-ons, while GOG ran a similar sale on retro war and strategy games.

I've been pretty nervous about sharing this part of my life online but today, I think I'm ready. After entering grade 11, I've come to realise that I am so painfully insecure without my pills and the best option would be to flush them away and say goodbye to them forever. At first I didn't think I'd need to resort to this but recently, my mind has started to wander back to it. Grade 11's been a drag, honestly. I'm lonely in my classes, my first semester courses are hard and so far it's been nothing but dull. Staying away from something that made you feel good for so many years when things are good is easy but it's a total dichotomy when things go to shit. That being said, I still don't have the guts to throw them out yet. While I may not cut contact with my supplier until I'm done school but I promise myself, and you guys, that I'm definitely going to get rid of them in the near future.
The biggest problem with drugs like Adderall and Vyvanse is that they make you into someone you're not. The person I was from grades 3-9 wasn't very human at all, to this day, I have no idea how the amphetamines have rewired my brain or how destructive they've been to my social life. All I can say is that I'm ready to leave them behind. I've done my fair share of research and with how I've been "quitting", I've actually made it harder for myself to stay away from it and the bouts of sadness I've been experiencing lately are a part of this process. By taking it whenever I "needed" to, I was really just giving myself an excuse to get high. No more. I'm done. I'm ready to build self-esteem and healthy working habits on my own.
I'll leave you with a quote from a website dedicated to quitting adderall that I've been following for years. If any of you are ever facing this painful endeavour, just let me know and I'll be more than happy to share it.
"These drugs like Adderall and Vyvanse are so different from other typical drugs…it's such a different kind of mentality that uses them. People use most narcotics to escape life. People use Adderall because they want to embrace life and they don't feel like they can adequately do that on their own. Typical drug use represents self-destruction; Adderall drug use represents an insecurity. Some ways the same; some ways totally different."
Thank you for sticking by me through this journey, guys! <3 I promise to give you updates soon!

Food for thought from Newsweek's Daniel Gross, who notes that Apple, with $145 billion on its books and its stock sliding, has decided to give a bunch of it back to its shareholders. "But returning capital to shareholders is like giving water to people who already have an unlimited supply of champagne, Perrier, and freshly pressed pomegranate juice. It�s stimulus for the 1 percent�hedge funds, mutual funds, individual stock owners, senior Apple employees." Besides, those people already own iPhones and iPads. They won't spend their excess riches on more, and Apple's real problem is not enough people can afford its products.
Apple's not alone in being cash-rich but customer-poor, Gross says:
The big challenge facing companies as the bull market and expansion roll into their fourth year is that demand is weak – in the U.S., in Europe, and even in China. Companies have been ingenious about making money amid lethargic growth, and even more shrewd about doing so without sharing their bounty with workers. Corporate profits have soared from $1.1 trillion in 2008 to $1.95 trillion in 2012. As a percentage of gross domestic product, they�ve never been higher. The amount of cash on companies� books has risen from $1.39 trillion in 2008 to $1.79 trillion in the fourth quarter of 2012�also a record. Meanwhile, U.S. median family income has actually fallen since 2009. And over the past 12 months, average hourly wages rose a scant 1.8 percent. The cartoon image of a CEO shouldn�t be Mr. Burns of The Simpsons. It should be Scrooge McDuck, lounging amid piles of golden coins.

Clayton News Daily
By Anthony Rhoads
The Georgia High School Association definitely dropped the ball. Monday, a proposal to go back to four classifications didn't even make it out of the reclassification committee. The plan originally came about to help solve travel problems many teams are facing. Now, many teams have to travel great distances even when they are playing in region contests. Going back to four classifications would help alleviate some of those problems. Excessive travel not only hurts the teams' performance on the field of play but it hurts the student-athletes' academics, which is what it's all about to begin with. The GHSA should not have gone to five classifications but the organization bowed down to pressure from former State Speaker of the House Tom Murphy. Murphy, from Bremen, wanted his local high school to do better so he put pressure on the GHSA to restructure its classification system. For many years, Murphy wielded so much power in the state it was basically a situation where Murphy got whatever he wanted so when he told the GHSA to jump, they said ?how high?' The GHSA should have had the courage to stand up to that power-hungry, wannabe dictator but it seemed like the GHSA more than happily surrendered to his wishes. As part of the restructuring, the classifications were increased to five. One only has to look at what happened during the first year of the five-classification system to see what was wrong with it. When the five-classification first came into effect in 2000, Evans-Augusta was put in with schools from Clayton, Henry, Coweta and Fayette counties. You don't have to be a geography expert to see what's wrong with that picture. During the 2000-01 and 2001-02 school years, local teams had to travel all the way to Augusta for region games. As tough as it was on local teams, it was tougher on Evans because when the school had to play away games in Region 4-AAAAA, it meant bus rides of around three hours one way. The problem could have been avoided entirely if the GHSA had stayed with four classifications. But it's way too late to go back now and think about what might have been. Monday, the GHSA had a chance to rectify a mistake it made but in typical GHSA fashion, the organization made the wrong decision. One concern about going back to four classifications was that fewer teams would make the state playoffs. With the way the system is set up now, a team doesn't really have to excel to make the state playoffs. Far too many mediocre teams are making the state playoffs right now. Back in the four-classification system, mediocre or downright bad teams did make the state playoffs occasionally but it happened less frequently than it does now. Not a Murphy fan: I think it's pretty obvious that I don't hold Tom Murphy in high regard when it comes to politics. Here was a guy who came into the state legislature as a pro-segregationist and later defended his actions because he said it was what his constituents wanted. If he had been for integration, he should have stood his ground, even if it meant he would not get re-elected. But like many politicians, his opinions were swayed more by public opinion rather than strong personal conviction. I also think that Murphy wielded way too much power as Speaker of the House. Our system was not created to give someone that much power but it seems like some voters are too ignorant to really know what it's all about. When Murphy was in office, he kept sending pork back to his home district and as long as the dollars kept coming back them, the voters kept electing him year after year.

Maine Asthma Prevention and Control Program - Asthma Information - Asthma and Pregnancy
Pregnant mothers with a diagnosis of asthma are at special risk if their asthma is out of control or poorly managed. Chances are that if the mother is not getting enough oxygen, her baby may not be getting enough either. Guidelines state that it is safer to take asthma medicine than it is to have an asthma attack while pregnant.
Six tips to help you have a healthier pregnancy, and a healthy baby:
- Tell your doctor if you have asthma
- Use your medications unless your doctor tells you to stop
- Keep away from triggers that will make your asthma worse like tobacco smoke, dust or animals with fur
- Poorly controlled asthma can lead to a low birth weight baby
- Having an asthma attack while pregnant may be dangerous for both mother and baby
- Asthma can be managed

POSTED: Wednesday, August 31, 2011 - 4:25pm
UPDATED: Thursday, July 5, 2012 - 2:14pm
Smith County, Texas — It's becoming a vicious cycle in east Texas-- people not paying child support.
It was a hot topic at Tuesday's Smith County Commissioners meeting.
The county says there seems to be a revolving door of child support violators coming in and out of the jail.
It's a catch 22, and the taxpayers end up footing the bill.
Smith County is hoping to come up with a way to curb the problem, but there doesn't seem to be an easy solution.
Smith County officials say they have between 60 and 90 people in jail everyday on child support charges.
KETK also spoke with a woman who is having trouble getting her child support.
She says putting the offender in jail doesn't help her, because she still doesn't get her money.

The population of this city of rolling hills set in dense tree coverage is almost 500,000.The metropolitan area has nearly 5,500,000 culturally diverse inhabitants. This is the seventh most popular city for visitors in the US. It attracts over 35,000,000 tourists every year.

SCUBA (Self Contained Underwater Breathing Apparatus) is an exhilarating and gratifying pastime. Diving with sharks, big fish, whales and dolphins is on the "bucket list" of many people. Scuba permits divers to "see under the sea"; it reveals an aquatic world of exciting activity. One certain way to meet the unknowns of the underwater world face-to-face is to dive at Atlanta's world famous aquarium.
The aquarium houses 120,000 animals from 500 different species in eight and a half million US gallons of water. This has made it the most popular attraction in the city. There are six galleries, touch tanks and the gigantic tank of the Ocean Voyager exhibit. Family and friends can watch through viewing windows and an underwater tunnel as you dive with sharks and rays.
All divers are certain to encounter cownose rays, humphead wrasses, tarpon, zebra sharks, sawfish, pompano, bowmouth guitarfish and leopard whiprays without leaving the city. They also display Beluga whales, Atlanti...

I have abandoned battle, savored peace
and lost my weapons deep in sacred ground.
I have sought sweet mercy - God's own release
and prayed for his swift justice to abound.
I have walked past the soldiers in the street
and heard their cries run shameless without sound -
the tired, shuffling resonance of feet.
And in the morning's chilled and angry blast,
I recognize the music of retreat
as if I saw the ghosts that knew my past
gathering at the tables for a feast.
Then God allow these thoughts to be my last
for I have hopes my blessings will increase
and the dark symphony of war will cease.

Moses: A Man of Selfless Dedication
Was he the sleek-and-trim, funloving animated man in The Prince of Egypt or the handsome, strong-hearted, superstar played by Charlton Heston in The Ten Commandments?
The most likely answer is "neither." The Bible gives a much more accurate picture of the Moses God used in such remarkable ways, Charles Swindoll paints a portrait of the biblical Moses in this fascinating look into the heart and mind of Moses: A Man of Selfless Dedication.
Swindoll gives us straight facts based squarely on the truth revealed in God's Word. He also fills in the fine-line details of Moses' life with emotion and feeling, because Moses, like all of us, was a human being with faults and frailties. And finally, Swindoll helps us apply the lessons of Moses' life to our own daily dilemmas.
When you face your personal Red Sea test, will you be prepared? Your decision to go forward in life instead of retreating will be bolstered by your having studied the real Moses of the Bible―the Moses who tried to decline his assignment from God; the Moses who dazzled Pharaoh; the Moses who received the Ten Commandments; the Moses who was sometimes disobedient and weak; the Moses who was the greatest leader of God's people in all of history; the Moses of faith and selfless dedication to his God.

Iran casts assassination plot as US attempt to distract from 'Occupy Wall Street'
"Americans are seeking to derail the public opinion from the Wall Street uprising," said Mr. Boroujerdi, according to Fars News Agency, which is linked to the Revolutionary Guard. Iran "has never pursued or adopted the policy of assassination, and it rather is a victim of terrorism. Therefore, the US officials' allegation is nothing but a big lie."
Khamenei describes an America in decline
Many questions remain about the true facts behind the case, how serious and dangerous it really was, and how much Iranian government involvement may have been a factor – if at all – despite US Justice Department claims that the plot was "conceived, sponsored and was directed from Iran."
Iranian agents killed scores of regime opponents in the 1980s and 1990s, mostly in Europe and Iraq, in a practice that was largely stopped by the time reformist President Mohammad Khatami was elected in 1997.
In an official complaint sent to United Nations chief Ban Ki-Moon late Tuesday, Iran rejected the new allegations, blaming them on "the current US warmongering and propaganda machine against Iran," which yielded an "evil plot" to "divert attention" from American problems at home.

Concierge.com's insider take:
Never mind that it's a cliché: If you see only one sight in Barcelona, head to the Eixample and see Gaudí's resplendent Sagrada Familia. An architectural "beauty and the beast," it is at once monstrous and breathtakingly beautiful—Modernisme in its ideal state. The church completely embraces the movement's idea of marrying nature with the handicraft of man: An organic quality, earthy tones, and steeples that seem to drip rather than stand make it look as though it has actually grown out of the ground rather than been constructed on top of it. Cavelike windows are inhabited by gargoyles and monsters, and religious scenes from the Last Supper to the Crucifixion are depicted on the facade. Gaudí is buried beneath the nave—he dedicated 40 years to the building, the last 14 of those living there—and in some sense he's still watching over the progress of his life's greatest work from the grave. The church was consecrated by Pope Benedict XVI in late 2010, meaning that services can now be held here, well before the expected completion date of 2026.—Updated by Suzanne Wales

2 Multiplayer is a let downPosted: 19/11/2013Great graphics, improved gun feel and personalization but the actual multiplayer gameplay is disappointing. Somehow the designers of the game promoted camping so everybody is hiding in order to get a good score. Plus, so many times you respawn and die immediately it is simply annoying. I spent many hours trying to adjust with no success, I'm putting mine on for sale.
iGadgitz Glossy Durable Crystal Gel Skin (TPU) Case Cover For Samsung Galaxy Note 2 II N7100 Android Smartphone Tablet And Screen Protector (White) Mobile 1 New from £2.59 Free delivery
5 good valuePosted: 05/03/2013the case fits firmly on the note providing excellent grip and protection even if your phone drops screen down. Its only drawback is that the front frame is SLIGHTLY thick. For this price, you need to have one.
5 Intense shootingPosted: 24/04/2012First the negatives, the campaign although nice it is very short (4 stars there). Buy this game for its online fun, it is highly addictive. Sure, Battlefield is great but also kind of slow with its huge maps and revival delays. MW3 on the other hand is very intense, action packed and highly addictive. 13 million online users.
2 Interesting story, poor acting, low effort directingPosted: 30/11/2010The idea of robots taking control and cameras controlling all we do is good, as is the special effects work of the movie. Beyond that however, the directing, acting, scene blending reveal a low budget movie. I watched it with some interest but failed to be captured by it.
5 a must readPosted: 27/10/2010I mostly read fantasy novels and this book is one of the best so far. Slow start but once you read on it is addictive. The plot is quite interesting although somewhat predictable (aren't they all). At times the brutality described is breathtaking. I highly recommend it.

4 Fun or Not?Posted: 14/05/2007If you are a fun of the Contest then this is a 5 star. There are some crappy songs and quite a few nice and fun ones. If you're not a fun however, this cd is a mixture with no sense, 2 stars.

Rep Power:
I have not done any long term cruising at this point, just weekend to multi-week trips, but I do plan too and so have been studying these types of issues for a long time. Now, I will not have the unlimited budget "problem", in fact we will need to fall into the extremely frugal cruisers crowd, so perhaps I bias my opinions to make myself feel better but here is one small thing I noticed...
I read a lot of blogs, books, magazine articles, etc of people, most very much better off then me financially who are cruising and one thing I often notice is how often they are waiting around because something broke, Things I do not even have on my boat. (This is just a huge generalization, and not meant to be negative in anyway toward anyone.)
I seem to read a lot of things like "So we are stuck in this port while we wait for X part to get shipped in, and then Y broke, and now we need to wait for three more weeks for the only repair guy to get to it and we really want to get going before the next storm blows in." And often times all the things that are breaking are things I will likely not be able to afford on my boat.
No matter how much money you have, even if you can pay someone to do everything, you still need to wait around for the parts and the people to be available to get the job done. I realize that a LOT of things will break on my old boat as well, but simply put, the fewer systems, the fewer things CAN break.
Of course few systems and smaller boats have huge negatives too. A lot less daily comfort, less room for things, no freezer, so not as fancy of food. I'm not knocking big boats or cool toys, but for me, a big part of the dream of cruising is to get away from the headaches of dealing with way more stuff then I need. Even if I could pay someone to fix it, I would still need to arrange it, wait for the guy to show up, make sure he does a god job, dealing with the effects if he doesn't, etc.
I agree for everyone there is a "sweet spot" to shoot for. I am still young(ish) and can give up a lot more comfort. As with all things in boats, it is a balancing act on a personal scale. But I think I see a lot of people being unhappy when it is not as easy to just throw money at a problem while cruising as it was back home.
Of course, I'll be rowing around to all the big boats looking to bum ice from their freezers, or asking if they got the weather report off their satellite system.

"Loose Construction but good for the price"
CAO Cx2 Beli
Over all looks like a great cigar but the quality is not what I expected from CAO. I found the loose construction to be problematic on draw and smoke qualntity, which in turn affects taste and burn rate. It s a near miss, but a miss all the same. The price makes up a good bit of the deficiency, though.
An anonymous smoker October 2, 2014
"Really nice cigar!"
CAO Cx2 Rob
It s a really good cigar, but I liked Lx2 and Mx2 more! : For me:
First place - Mx2
Second place - Lx2
Third place - Cx2
Vasil in CA June 2, 2014
"Very nice stick"
CAO Cx2 Rob
Little bit of a tight draw at first. Once it opened up was great, woody and earthy notes with hints of sweetness!
VInce May 21, 2014
"Okay smoke"
CAO Cx2 Rob
Had one 2 days out of the box and liked the mildness but did not like the burn. The wrapper cracked when I touched it and blew up in the middle. After it passed the middle point it became a great and flavorful smoke to the nub.
Alan Dykes in San Antonio January 24, 2014
"Very Slow Burn Stolky lasted me Hours"
CAO Cx2 Toro
Not a Bad Stolky Good taste Did not Burn till end lost flavor before Finish But lasted a very long time Good Cigar
wilfredo in New York January 21, 2014
"This is a very good cigar!"
CAO Cx2 Rob
Sorry to hear that some had a bad experience with this cigar (plugged )but myself it's in my top five, depending on the occasion! It had a nice even burn, nice smooth draw and good flavor! Definitely getting more of these babies!
D-NICE in Columbus, OH October 11, 2013
"Let it age!"
CAO Cx2 Toro
I smoked one a short time after my initial purchase and it seemed a bit average. Just pulled another out of the bottom of the humidor after 3.6 years and a what a great suprise. Beautiful flavour from cameroon wrapper with strong cacao and cedar flavours and a woody, cedar aroma. Cigar gave an additional hit of black pepper complexity in the final third.
Tapper in Australia September 30, 2013
CAO Cx2 Rob
My first experience with a non Cuban cigar. Was surprised how great this cigar is. Medium strength, Great burn, flavor and look. Nice draw, very smooth with lots of smoke. Happy to have 4 more left. Getting some more after that for sure. Very recommended.
Rodolfo D. in Melbourne, Australia September 25, 2013
CAO Cx2 Rob
I received 2 of these in a promo pack and both were plugged (actually badly wrapped and filled) i hope this isnt an indication of the "quality" to expect from CAO
Saint Germaine in Australia March 24, 2013
"One of my top 5 favorites."
I have enjoyed this cigar very much after dinner and with a light beverage. One of my 5 favorite mild to mild/med evening smokes. I enjoy the Cameroon flavor of the wrapper and construction is very good. My other favorites are Rocky Patel Am.Market Selection, Partagas, Alec Bradley Am. Classsic Blend, Gurkha Regent.
