Leake opposes Liriano in clash of NL Central rivals
Reds, who have won nine of 11 home series, host Pirates
As the Pirates get set to embark on a lengthy road trip, they'll start at the ballpark where the home team -- an division rival -- has had great success this year.
Pittsburgh opens a nine-game road trip with an important four-game set at the Reds' Great American Ball Park. The two teams are in a heated race in the National League Central, each of them chasing the first-place Cardinals.
"I'm not staying up late at night thinking about [the race]," Pirates manager Clint Hurdle said. "It's the appropriate time to play [the Reds], because that's what the schedule says. We're going in, we've got who we got, and they've got who they got. That's the honest truth. That's how I look at it."
The Pirates have split their last four after winning four of five. The Reds are 24-12 at home, with 11 wins in their last 17 games at Great American Ball Park.
Cincinnati has won nine of its 11 completed home series.
Two front-line starters will duel in the series opener, with Pirates lefty Francisco Liriano (5-2, 2.36 ERA) squaring off against Reds righty Mike Leake (6-3, 2.76).
Leake was dominant in his last outing against the Cubs, surrendering only one run and three hits in eight innings on Wednesday. He has a 4-1 record with a 1.13 ERA in his last six starts.
Liriano, meanwhile, is the "anchor" of Pittsburgh's injury-depleted rotation, Hurdle says. It will be his second career start against the Reds, as he's scattered five earned runs over his last three starts.
"For the most part, his best pitches have been offspeed," catcher Russell Martin said. "But he's used the fastball in normally breaking-ball situations. He's been pitching backwards, and it's been effective, because hitters want to hit the fastball, for the most part, anyway. And when you've got 94 [mph], they've got to honor that. So being able to throw offspeed pitches for strikes has worked for him."
Pirates: All hands on deck
The Pirates have beat the Reds four times this season -- but three of those games were started by players injured and not in the current rotation: A.J. Burnett, Phil Irwin and Jeanmar Gomez (Jeff Locke started the other).
The Pirates have already used 11 starters, one more than all of last year.
"We're always talking about never having too much pitching," general manager Neal Huntington said. "If you'd told anybody on the street in April that we'd be on our 11th Major League starting pitcher, and Jeff Locke would be the anchor left in the rotation in mid-June, I think you'd have won a lot of money if you'd said we'd have won 40 games and been battling for a playoff spot. It's a huge tribute to the guys who've continued to take the ball."
Reds: Votto, Bruce closing in
Outfielder Jay Bruce is one home run shy of Lee May (147) for 16th all-time on the Reds' all-time home run list. First baseman Joey Votto has 144.
• Outfielder Shin-Soo Choo got the day off Sunday, but he admitted that he doesn't really know how to handle the rare occasion.
"I just told him to stay in and rest some, come in late," manager Dusty Baker said of Choo. "I don't think he knows how to."
• Reds pitchers have struck out at least 10 hitters 23 times this year, including 16 times at Great American Ball Park. They have at least 15 strikeouts in a game three times.
Reds hurlers have struck out at least 11 hitters at home 10 times.
Worth noting
• The Pirates are kicking off a 10-day, nine-game road trip in Cincinnati (four games), Anaheim (three) and Seattle (two). It is their second of four three-city trips this year. The Bucs won't play at PNC Park again until June 28.
• Reds outfielder Chris Heisey (strained right hamstring) is expected to join Triple-A Louisville for a rehabilitation assignment on Friday.

Surprisingly excellent
I've known the Rockport name for some time and have bought many pairs of their shoes. This shoe was actually the first I've purchased in a while. After now having them for about a month now I can say that I wish I had gotten them sooner. My biggest problem that I've had in the past is sweat. That doesn't happen in these shoes. The other great thing is comfort. I think these are just breaking in so I can only image that it will get better. Finally, I'm not sure if others have the issue but my laces tend to loosen throughout the day. I don't have a problem with these. Hope you have the same experience or better.

LOOKING AHEAD: Martin said "one of my goals is that I want to be able to bring something to the organization in stability, and hopefully we can turn the car back over to Tony an even stronger organization than what it was when he got injured." But Martin quickly added, "But when you do something like the 11 car at Martinsville (where Martin subbed for the injured Denny Hamlin) on four days' notice or going into Bristol with this short of notice, it is like jumping into ice-cold water. It's going to be challenging, and challenges are good for me. I will do everything I can to step up to the plate."
LOOKING BACK: Austin Dillon drove the car at Michigan. And his day began badly when he crashed only 14 laps into the 200-lap event. "I did pretty much exactly what I did not want to do," said Dillon after the race. "I put us behind in the beginning and scared myself a little there. I thought I was going to be able to pass J. J. (Yeley) pretty easy, and I was just too loose on the braking. But thanks to Steve (Addington, crew chief) and the guys in the pits, we were able to recover and we ran some really fast times in the middle of the race. Our goal was a top-15 finish and we got it (finishing 14th). What a great comeback by the 14 team." Dillon will run one more race in the 14 car - at Talladega in October.
ETC.: Stewart suffered a broken right tibia and fibula in a winged sprint car crash on Aug. 5. The doctors have operated twice on his right leg, and Stewart admits he is in a lot of pain. "We expect a full recovery by Daytona (February 2014) or close to it," said SHR director of competition Greg Zipadelli. "It's a bad break to the leg, and he needs time to go through the process of healing, rehabilitation. With Mark coming on board, I think it gives us the window to go to the end of the year. He was obviously the best option. Tony was very excited about it. That was his first choice, so that's what we went after."
43 ARIC ALMIROLA, Ford
Team: Richard Petty Motorsports
WHERE HE STANDS: 19th, 76 points out of the top 10. Lost one spot last week.
BRISTOL RECORD: Only one top-10 finish in eight starts.
LOOKING AHEAD: Almirola hopes "to run a lot better at Bristol than we did in the spring. We know we need a real good weekend to keep alive any hopes of making the Chase. It looks more and more like we need a win to have any shot. But we also need a good run at Bristol to stay in the hunt as we feel real good about Atlanta."
LOOKING BACK: Almirola was forced to make a late-race pit stop for fuel to end any hopes he had of finishing in the top 10. Instead, he had to settle for an 18th-place finish at Michigan. "That was not the day we hoped for," said Almirola. "We had a fast car. Todd (Parrott, crew chief) made two great calls on chassis adjustments to get the splitter back on the ground, and then, we were running times as fast as the leaders. The cautions didn't fall out way, and we had to pit (for gas). We had a good car, but just weren't able to capitalize on it."
ETC.: Very few people get to see a race car pull up in their driveway. But that is exactly what happened last week to Sergeant First Class Howard Kott and his wife Dawn. "We just heard this loud noise and came out to see Aric just driving the 43 down the street," said Knox. "He even set off someone's car alarm. That was really cool." Once Almirola got out of the car, he surprised the Kott family with crew uniforms and VIP passes to the Michigan race. "We want to keep recognizing, honoring and thanking our military veterans, wounded warriors and their families," said Almirola. It was all part of the Operation Homefront program.
31 JEFF BURTON, Chevrolet
Team: Richard Childress Racing
WHERE HE STANDS: 20th, 102 points out of the top 10. Gained one spot last week.
BRISTOL RECORD: One win and 15 top-10 finishes in 39 starts.
LOOKING AHEAD: Burton believes the "new" Bristol is "completely different than it was five years ago. To me, it is more of a race now. I know fans enjoyed us beating and banging on one another with all the accidents and tempers flaring, but I think the actual racing is better."
LOOKING BACK: Burton finished eighth at Michigan for his fifth top-10 finish of the season. "It's a good thing to be disappointed with an eighth-place finish," said Burton. "The 31 Cheerios Chevrolet had a lot of speed at times and I think was the best car on the track at times. We just struggled on fresh tires more than other drivers did. When we would put tires on, it seemed like it hurt us more than others. On long runs, our car was really happy and fast. No drama and we got what we deserved."
ETC.: Burton points out "everyone was surprised last year when the high groove (at Bristol) became the preferred line to run. I don't think anyone anticipated that. That usually makes the middle and low lines always open to pass. However, it is really hard to pass. That makes track position even more important."
17 RICKY STENHOUSE JR., Ford
Team: Roush Fenway Racing
WHERE HE STANDS: 21st, 107 points out of the top 10, only five points out of the top 20. Lost one spot last week.
BRISTOL RECORD: Finished 16th in his Cup debut in the spring race.
LOOKING AHEAD: Stenhouse believes the team will benefit "from the second time around. Going back to these tracks a second time will help us get better. I'm still hoping for that strong finish like we had in our Nationwide Series rookie campaign in 2010 so we can carry some momentum into next year."
LOOKING BACK: A blown right-front tire on lap 70 ended any hopes Stenhouse had of earning his first top-10 finish of the season. Instead, he had to be content with 19th-place finish. "This is the story of our season," said Stenhouse. "Our Ford was fast and we had worked ourselves into the top-10 and then we blew a right front. I am so proud of my guys. They kept fixing our car from our brake line being loose to cosmetic damage after the impact (with the turn two wall). I definitely think we could have gotten up there and contended for the win, but..."
ETC.: Stenhouse admits his rookie Cup season has been "up and down. I would say that we're right at a C. We've got a lot of room for improvement. We've had some strong runs. We've had speed. We've made good decisions. We haven't got everything to fall our way to capitalize on those. In these Sprint Cup races, you have to have everything fall in place and you have to be fast every week to get those good finishes you're looking for. We definitely got a lot of room for improvement."

Move-in Day
Kickin' It
"Kickin' it with Kent County," a field day for local fifth graders, is an initiative started by the Social Entrepreneurship Practicum class in spring 2012. The goal is to promote a healthy and active lifestyle among the fifth graders of Kent County while building camaraderie among the five Kent County elementary schools. Additionally, the day on campus served to introduce the "Class of 2023" to a college campus and to encourage the young students to start thinking about college. Prior to the field day kick off, Kent on the Move provided a wonderful introduction to the day's activities. Throughout the day, students participated in eight field day stations ranging from tests of physical strength to team building activities to an oral health station. Washington College looks forward to hosting the event year after year!

tnks for the link
has anyone ever got steamers when it was pumping. been there twice both times it was chest high and still really fun. Always wanted to surf a big swell there though.I love the atmosphere and break
gonna be there in december....pretty stoked.....would a high end 3/2 w/ booties and gloves work or am i gonna need the 4/3?
the event just went back on
seems like a cool event & steamer lane has always seemed like a great, super fun wave.
i am, however, somewhat skeptical of an event billed as "the coldwater classic" & no booties or gloves are required of the contestants. check the pics: http://www.surfline.com/surf-news/on...overage_61831/
a good 4/3 with boots .. sometimes a hood ... only b1tchesss wear gloves
So a brazzo (MIGUEL PUPO) wins the CWC is waist high onshore beachbreak. If it aint at the Lane it doesn't count homies! Brazzo won in brazilian conditions...aerial show=game over. Maybe Kerr or Dane...Oh well it wasn't the Lane so who cares

Colorado State Rams head coach Larry Eustachy. / Josh H. Holmberg, USA TODAY Sports
Some topics should be off-limits.
N.C. State fans talking about Chris Paul's late grandfather. D.J. Strawberry hearing comments about his troubled father. Duke fans holding up signs with "J.R. Can't Reid" written on them.
Some Wyoming fans crossed that line Wednesday night when they chanted "alcoholic" at Colorado State coach Larry Eustachy, according to Ben Frederickson of the Casper Star Tribune in Wyoming.
Eustachy was fired from Iowa State in 2003 after he was photographed drinking with undergraduates. He admitted he was an functioning alcoholic - "probably the best in the country at it" - and sought treatment. He was quickly hired at Southern Miss and spent eight years there before moving to Colorado State last spring.
This April, Eustachy will mark 10 years of sobriety, he says.
The chant in Wyoming started before halftime of the game in Laramie. The Cowboys had been trailing for most of the game and would go on to lose 78-56.
Even if it was a small number of students chanting about Eustachy's addiction, it reflects poorly upon the entire student section. Sometimes, all it takes is one bad fan to sully a school's reputation.

It's about time to have an ongoing thread for Chinese skating! News articles, weibo updates, message board reports, credible rumors , general discussions... Translations especially appreciated!!! There is a separate Chinese National Competitions 2012/2013 season thread in the Kiss & Cry forum, please feel free to cross post as well!
YAN Han did not appear to be in top form at JGP Slovenia. I attempted to translate YAN Han's relevant weibo updates and replies and may have caused some confusions. Please correct if they are off, thanks!! 9/29 16:39 follow up reply in a different post "腰胯肩疼" - literally waist, hips, and shoulder pain. 9/29 04:56 follow up reply: "Nothing wrong, did not skate well" 9/26 08:53 weibo post was pretty hard to translate, it paraphrases like this: "Always something wrong once leaving Haerbin (training base), it's either swollen (?) or fever. So miserable, don't want to be at Haerbin in the future." Granted, this is a teenage boy's "twitter" and a post about pain could be just an ordinary fall or more notable injury that affects competition. Hope he is well!
Current "disabled list" as reported on message boards, no news sources (to expect news sources on Chinese skating would wipe out 90% of the speculation fun, hehe) SUI Wenjing is off the ice due to injury, GP status uncertain for SUI/HAN ZHANG He is or was injured, withdrew from JGP
Thanks for starting this thread but can you ask a mod. to move it to GSD please? (since it's a current news thread)
I don't know Sylvia! GSD seems to be more strict about the source of news updates, while for Chinese skating there is rarely anything official.
We already have a thread from last season in GSD but I agree there's not that much news about chinese figure skating http://www.fsuniverse.net/forum/showthread.php?t=81949
^^^ I was hoping we could have a new Chinese skating news thread for the new season, but sometimes important news gets lost or missed when posted in the general threads. Ah, okay, I see your point, jjane45. We seem to have more Chinese posters these days, so hopefully they will contribute news-type items here. If any important Chinese skating news articles (for example, regarding Sui/Han's Grand Prix status) from credible media sources are published online, hopefully a separate thread can be started/links will be posted in GSD.
No articles in sight for ZHANG Kexin's withdrawal from grand prix series. It's rumored that she is not injured. There were reports back in the summer that she had conflicts with her coaching team and considered retirement... #hearsayinfo
Hope it was just a rumor. She's so lovely on ice, and her performances at 2012 Worlds were just fabs!
Article in Chinese on P/T's condition before Skate America http://news.sports.cn/figureskating/2012-10-16/16504.html My (questionable) attempt at translating the highlights: TONG injured his neck nerve in strength training. PANG talked about various old injuries of TONG including knee, ankle, and back. She said something along the line of "we barely have any healthy body parts now". They have added more off-ice training but it was ineffective. TONG's bad knee makes warm up increasingly difficult, at the beginning of every session he needs to do many swizzles on ice, and even that is not always helpful. They are not giving up the first GP despite of subpar physical condition and slower progress with their new programs. TONG also said "we cannot back up (now) because of difficulties, or it will be impossible to manage crucial competitions in the future. It's the most critical to bravely step onto the ice and finish the competition. If we see problems (at Skate America), we'll tackle them at home."
A coach posted on weibo that minor injury caused Kexin ZHANG to withdraw from GP. I am not exactly convinced though.
Oh god, that sounds horrible. They just need to let go and rest! But it looks like the fed is pushing them to do this .
I enjoy P&T skating but I do hope they take care of their health. Suffering pain and relying on drugs(to ease the pain) in old age is not worth it IMO.
We can now only hope they don't hurt themselves any more than that in SA. So wish their speedy recovery.
Oh no She is one of the skaters I was really looking forward to see again this season..I hope she will continue!!
more #hearsayinfo from tieba: SUI Wenjing / HAN Cong withdrew from COC, WANG Wenting / ZHANG Yan gets the spot.
It's official as of today on the ISU site - see: http://www.fsuniverse.net/forum/sho...-(continued)&p=3715080&viewfull=1#post3715080 ETA: jjane45, I've re-posted your translation summary of the Pang/Tong article in the Skate America articles thread - thank you for all of your updates!
Sui/Han: according to http://sports.sina.com.cn/o/2012-11-03/23296282779.shtml Sui is diagnosed as having 骨骺炎 and the team didn't train much after that
骨骺炎 is an inflammation (炎 of what I guess is the epiphysis (骨骺 - couldn't find a dictionary to confirm that, but it has to do with the end of the bone, at any rate)
Update here by Eislauffan http://www.fsuniverse.net/forum/showthread.php?85597-Any-report-on-Nan-Song-s-injury
Repost from Eislauffan: "Nan Song was taken to hospital and diagnosed with a concussion. He was to be released today (Sunday) and should rest for two weeks I heard this morning. I don't think we'll see him in Paris for Trophee Bompard."
Cross posting my post from the CoC SONG Nan injury thread: (((SONG Nan))) Fans reported that he attended the CoC banquet with neck support, but was in good spirits. SONG Nan had 2 weibo posts on 11/3: "I cannot remember anything, what happened to me?" and "Can someone tell me what happened?" Brief translation of Sina sports interview:
Great picture of Song and Daisuke from the CoC banquet. This weibo post says Dai's coach Utako Nagamitsu won a Samsung galaxy phone at the raffle, she and Dai decided to give it to Song and wished him speedy recovery. Dai also said he hopes to see Song at 4CC.

Get outdoors!
Either take on the challenge of the jungle walk to Had Rin town (approximately 2 hours) or perhaps explore the riverbed and the waterfalls as the trail meanders its way up the hillside. There are also walks to other bays further north on the east coast. The viewpoint is a beautiful place that some people find on their first day here, yet others take years to discover! A short 15 minute walk to the top of the headlands reveals a stunning view up the coast and of neighbouring island Koh Samui. Getting there for sunrise is a pilgrimage well worth the effort.
Boat Trips
Traditional Thai long-tail boat trips can be arranged with any of the family boatmen. Cruise the east coast in a long-tail boat and enjoy waterfalls, stunning coral and deserted beaches.
We offer sea kayaks for rent as an adventurous and healthy way to explore the beautiful east coast of Koh Phangan. Take a packed lunch, visit deserted beaches and practice your snorkelling!
Ang Thong Marine National Park Day Trip
Located west of Koh Phangan, a speedboat day trip to the marine reserve can be organised for you. This is an amazing day out where you can snorkel in totally untouched coral gardens, picnic on empty beaches and explore the Emerald Lake.

Based in part on Cheever's adolescence in New England, the novel follows the destinies of the impecunious and wildly eccentric Wapshots of St. Botolphs, a quintessential Massachusetts fishing village. Here are the stories of Captain Leander Wapshot, venerable sea dog and would-be suicide; of his licentious older son, Moses; and of Moses' adoring and errant younger brother, Coverly.
Tragic and funny, ribald and splendidly picaresque, The Wapshot Chronicle is a family narrative in the tradition of Trollope, Dickens, and Henry James.
As an added bonus, when you purchase any of our Audible Modern Vanguard productions of John Cheever's books, you'll also get an exclusive Jim Atlas interview added to your library.
This production is part of our Audible Modern Vanguard line, a collection of important works from groundbreaking authors.
©1957 John Cheever; (P)2009 Audible, Inc.
"The best introduction to Cheever's work...Richly inventive and vividly told." (The New York Times Book Review)
"[John Cheever is] a master American storyteller." (Time)
"A taste of goodnes and sanctity of life"
Centered on an eclectic trio of father and Two sons from the venerable New England Wapshot family who were forced to face the real world of making livings after their benefactress, a Wapshot counsin, demanded so. While the weaving plots were a bit random, and characters off beat on the surface, one cannot but to adore them all, and tastes the goodness and sanctity of life through them.

The open-source business model that relies solely on support and service revenue streams is failing to meet the expectations of investors. For anyone who hasn't been paying attention to the software industry lately, I have some bad news. The open-source business model is broken.
Companies have long hoped to make money from this freely available software by charging customers for support and add-on features. Some have succeeded. Many others have failed or will falter, and their ranks may swell as the economy worsens.

Visit our web site for more info on vintage and current
baseball, football, basketball, hockey, sports and
non-sport cards and card collecting. |
(part 1) Common - any card which is not short-printed, an insert, a bonus card, or has an insertion ratio. In short, the cards that comprise the manufacturer's basic set. Condition - the physical appearance of a card/collectible. Centering, corner wear, photo clarity, edges, the presence of foreign material, signs of misuse are the critical components. Along with rarity/scarcity, it is a major factor in determining the value of a card or collectible. Crease - an obvious paper wrinkle defect usually caused by bending the card [i.e.- the result of being tortured on a rear-wheel bicycle spoke during the early '50s and '60s]. Die-Cut - an insert/parallel card that differs from the basic card by a process of the manufacturer "cutting" portions of the card revealing a special design. Recent issues may also be individually and serially-numbered. |
HARTLAND STATUESHartland produced it's first baseball statues back in the early 60's. Sports Collectibles Digest stated that the 1960's Mickey Mantle Hartland is the single most popular plastic sports statue ever produced ! In 1988 Hartland created their 25th Anniversary Editions which, except for some very minor details, were identical to the original.Hartland partnered with America's leading hobby-periodical publisher, Krause Publications, to create the SCD Authentic series offering the original 18 as you've never seen them with each statue dramatically different from prior releases. They are amazingly beautiful and exquisitely detailed in their road uniforms with painted pinstripes and wood grained bats making them a unique collectible opportunity for both veteran collectors and Hartland newcomers alike. Limited to only 2,500 pieces each, these statues are BRAND NEW, MINT and in THEIR ORIGINAL BOXES !!!

1969 Topps StampsThis was Topps 3rd stamp issue in the last eight years and it was a good one !!! The stamps were not inserts but a totally separate issue . For a nickel you got a strip of twelve stamps plus a mini album. The 1969 Topps Stamps complete set contains 240 stamps. The 1 x 1-7/16 inch stamps were unnumbered and featured a color photo with the player's name, team and position inside a colored banner at the bottom of the stamp. The stamps were released in both vertical and horizontal strips of 12 stamps. The 1969 Topps Stamps are often confused with Topps' 1974 issue. The 1974 Topps Stamps have ovals rather than banners at the bottom and were released only in 12-stamp horizontal panels.Along with the stamps, Topps also issued a set of 24 albums, one per team, to store them in. The 2 1/2" x 3 1/2" orange albums were the same size as a baseball card and held a complete 10-stamp team set. To add even more collecting fun, the album's back cover had facsimile autographs of the ten players shown in the album. The 1969 Topps Stamps set is packed with stars like Pete Rose along with tons of Hall-of-Famers including MICKEY MANTLE, Willie Mays, Roberto Clemente & many, many more !!!

How to put up curtains and blinds
Curtains and blinds block out light and drafts, as well as giving you more privacy. But they can also be a distinctive design feature - introducing colour, pattern and texture into any room in your home. Curtain tracks and poles, too, come in loads of different designs to suit every style of interior. But if you're going for ready-made curtains it's a good idea to choose them before you buy your track or pole, as you might find they're designed to be hung from a particular type of fitting.
More Information
At Geom we believe that the roof windows and exterior cladding of your home can be more than just functional and durable. Our products are designed with style and sophistication in mind to help you make the most of your home both inside and out. So we guarantee you'll feel cosy in winter, airy in summer and safe and secure all year round.

Does anyone know anything about this bourbon? I saw it in the store today and wanted y'all's opinion on this one before I bought. It was only 15.99 and I think 103 proof. Let me know what you can.
Does anyone know anything about this bourbon? I saw it in the store today and wanted y'all's opinion on this one before I bought. It was only 15.99 and I think 103 proof. Let me know what you can.
Heaven Hill product, so it's going to be pretty similar to Evan Williams black label. A little bit younger and higher proof. Not bad. It is what it is, i.e., a pretty decent expression of Heaven Hill whiskey.
Col. Charles K. "Crotchety" Cowdery
"Whiskey Don't Keep."
That one was my regular pour for a while but then I got tired of it so it's been a while since I've had any. Not a bad bourbon by any means, in fact I've been missing it and thinking about picking up a bottle lately. A good value for that price, proof, and taste imo.
"I've had eighteen straight whiskies, I think that's the record . . ." - Dylan Thomas
Given the name and the packaging I had assumed that this was a recent label, but last year I found a tax stamped (and aged two years longer) bottle, so I guess it's been around for a while.
I consider FC to be a decent bourbon for the price and given its 103 proof a good value. I mostly use it for mixing and such but at times do drink it neat.

Greg's "bourbondork" blog
Used to be a good value bourbon but the price has gone up a bit. It's a young tasting bourbon with lots of corn husk. I drank it neat with some spring water and found it to have a lot of flavor but it just wasn't my cup o' tea. I'd recommend you give it a try, though. Oh, and $15.99 is still not a bad price. It's pushing 20 bucks here in the metroplex.

"Why don't you quit cryin' and get me some bourbon?"
I wait for it to go on sale and usually pick it up for around $14. $20 is getting a little high. VA increased all liquor sales in February so everything here has gone up unfortunately.

Greg's "bourbondork" blog
I'm about a third of the way through my first bottle. It's not a great bourbon, but not a bad one either. It has a bit too much burn for my liking, even when I put a few cubes of ice in it. I tried it with Coke, but that didn't help either. I've been meaning to try it in a Mint Julep for a while now, but haven't gotten around to it yet.
As an FYI....
Scott (Hightower) and I went out this time last year and purchased the last 5 (known) bottles in Australia before this product disappeared from our shelves. It has been dropped by the Aussie Heaven Hill Distributors. It cost us $45 AU per bottle, which was the normal retail price.
Simplicity is the essence of universality - MK Ghandi
I enjoy Fighting Cock, but I haven't met a bourbon yet that I haven't liked, just some more than others. I like the robust flavor and bite of this bourbon when served on the rocks.
As for the bolded question Jeff, its a Rye recipe bourbon. I direct you to their site, http://www.fightingcock.com/index-flash.html
Bourbon is like anything else, each to their own tastes, and all tastes are different. You may or may not enjoy FC but you'll never know until you try it. Cheers.

I take it I'm the only person that cares about pbuffer support in the FGLRX driver. Since AMD has known about this bug for almost a year, and there has been no response here, I can only assume that AMD doesn't care to support this feature. An oddity about this situation is that AMD has docs and sample code on their website that use this extension, although it seems to be written for old hardware: http://developer.amd.com/gpu/radeon/...s/default.aspx
Anyone from AMD want to respond?

History in the Paint Public Art Tour
In the summer of 2013, a collective of artists, called the Walldogs, came to Kewanee, IL to paint 15 historic murals depicting the long history and heritage of the city. These paintings can be found on many downtown facades, as well as at the Amtrak Station that brings new people to the area, every day. About this mural: Kewanee was founded in May of 1854, when the Military Tract Railroad was routed to the north of Wethersfield. The town founders were from Wethersfield Township to the south, Sylvester Blish, Ralph Tenney, Henry Little and Sullivan Howard, plus Nelson Lay from Wisconsin. Colonel Berrian, civil engineer who supervised the laying of the track through this area, was asked to choose a name and he decided on "Kewanee," a Winnebago Indian word for "prairie chicken." In 1921, Wethersfield's 2,000 people asked to be annexed to Kewanee with its 16,000. That 18,000 would turn out to be Kewanee's peak population.
