That roundtable transcript was fascinating and eye-opening. It's good to know that those people are so in-tune to what's going on as far as what consumers are craving and what "the cocktail people" are doing. It will be interesting to see if any of them do anything to change the availability of rye.
I know that many fellow Egullet members share my great interest in Rye Whiskey. I thought that some of you might be interested in this article from Malt Advocate Magazine, where they conducted a Rye Roundtable, and brought together every significant personality in the modern Rye distilling industry in one room to talk about the state if the rye business. The roundtable included such notables as Julian Van Winkle, Fritz Maytag, Jimmy Russell and many others.
Here's the link to this article. It's a google cache of the original as MA no longer has the article posted.
I hope that you enjoy the article.
All About Rye Whiskey

And Jim Beam needs to change that stupid bottle out. Ri 1 is an insult to any one that loves the stuff. The whiskey is ok for sours and such, but the bottle is so stupid i don't even pick it up for beginners.
Of course, like everyone else who knows the whiskey, I think it should be discontinued and re-bottled at 100 proof(or even cask strength :) ) as 5+ yr Overholt or Jim Beam Rye.
I've been told that Ri 2 and Ri 3 will eventually come out. Its uncomfortable to think about.
Posted 16 April 2009 - 07:01 AM
You nailed it right there. When I tasted it, it just seemed kind of flat, lifeless. Like striking a bell that's sitting on the ground. No resounding peal, just a dead thunk. I'd be hesitant to spend even $25 on the stuff. No way can I see paying the $40+ they're asking (and this from someone who happily buys Booker's bourbon for $46). Maybe the lack of finish is a moot point in if used in a cocktail (something more complicated than an Old Fashioned, that is), I don't know. Has anyone here mixed with this yet?
ri 1 has no finish
I'd be OK with that.
I think the best we can hope for in the next few years is a regular supply of the bottlings that are out there right now.
The vodka-style packaging combined with the elevated price seem to suggest that the whole marketing campaign of this product has been conducted as it if were vodka. Case in point: a new distillery recently opened in Pittsburgh called Boyd & Blair. They make potato vodka using locally grown potatoes; it's distilled in small batches; and the proprietors fill the bottles themselves. As vodka goes, it is very good--comparable with the best Polish vodkas. They wanted to price their product at around $20-$24, but the PA LCB said, "No, you'll sell more if it's priced at $29.95." It's been selling like gangbusters*. But then it actually is vodka. (ri)1 is not vodka. I doubt their strategy will work.
*I actually would like to see them succeed because they are a local company and they are the first distillery in Southwestern PA since the 1800s. They do have plans to eventually expand into making gin and whiskey.

I quickly understood that this question would have fallen on deaf ears when I asked for my Manhattan stirred and he poured both the whiskey and the vermouth straight into my glass and stirred the undiluted concoction with a sipping straw.
i'd rather have it that way than how I am usually served manhattan's locally at a bar...shaken to death, watered down, cloudy messes....
so i often will ask for e'm just as you got it..and they'll even screw that up, like by again shaking it to death and pouring it in a collins glass over more ice...(well at least the last place threw in some angostura bitters)....ugh..
i'll still vote for Mitcher's (4 yo) and Sazerac
I havent seen R1 around connecticut yet, but i will sheild my eyes when i do
Posted 16 April 2009 - 05:39 PM
Especially considering Ri1 is a product that we freely admit seems marketed toward the 'trendy' vodka crowd, why are we surprised when it downplays the more rye-centric characteristics that we love? The bottle itself indicates that the product is to be the most "vodkaic" (if that can enter the lexicon) rye on the market. That the palate confirms this seems simply academic.
Of course, I lament alongside everyone else that Beam has decided to release Ri1 in lieu of a Bonded Overholt, and I certainly don't mean my comments to be a criticism towards anyone; I suppose I'm merely caught slightly incredulous by the seeming hub-bub surrounding the product's relative disappointment.
As a matter of reference, this post was prefaced by my own mixing of a Ri1 Manhattan (8:4:1) w/ Boissiere & Angostura, which seemed to highlight the softer characteristics of the vermouth & bitters -- something I imagine the non-classic cocktail crowd would treasure if venturing out to try such a beverage.

Handy is Saz 6yr at Cask Strength. The present bottling is a 5-6yr from what I'm told. While the barrels may be selected to provide for a spicier whiskey, the fruitiness of Saz 6yr still comes through. In my opinion its the proof that makes Handy the amazing product that it is. I wonder if Jeam Beam, Wild Turkey, Heaven Hill, Tutlletown, Kentucky Bourbon Distillers or Four Roses will add to the Cask Strength Rye Market. Thank you Buffalo Trace and Anchor Steam for Handy and the 18th Cen Spirit.
The one I have is the 2006 bottling, which I seem to remember anecdotally described as taken from casks between 10-14 years of age. It does clearly come from the same mashbill as the Saz 6 though, the character is unmistakeable.
Did the older releases of Handy come from different lots of different ages than the more recent ones?
Posted 20 April 2009 - 01:39 PM
According to the press sheets that BT releases, the inaugural 2006 Handy was aged 8 years, 5 months, while both the 2007 and 2008 iterations were aged 6 years, 5 months.

Incidentally, Central Liquors had some of the Thomas Handy on the shelves -- something I've never seen anywhere -- priced in the 70's I think. Very tempting but not in my budget at the moment!

You may be right about the Baltimore connection; I picked up 3 bottles of it in Annapolis a few months ago - $11.99 a bottle.
I've recently moved to Washington DC from New York. As a rye whiskey lover, I thought I'd be able to find Pikesville Rye in this neck of the woods, but haven't seen it at either my local stores or well-stocked places like Central Liquors and Calvert Woodley.

The liquor store I was in also had (ri)1 for $62. I just shook my head. Jeez, I thought $46 was bad. I can't imagine very many WVU students are buying this (and judging from the pallet-loads of near gallon-sized bottles of Jagermeister in the store, I don't think they are).

Posted 01 September 2009 - 07:51 PM
The year in which this scene is set is 1963. If you haven't seen it, let me recap. Don's at a country club, where his boss is hosting a party. Don wants another drink and finds a bar inside with a white-jacketed man at the bar, back to Don. Don asks for an old-fashioned. White-jacket says, "I'm on the same mission, but there's no bourbon around." Don realizes this is another guest, not a bartender, and goes behind the bar himself to see what he can find.
He picks up a bottle, shows the label to the other guy, and says, "Is rye all right?" It's a bottle of Old Overholt. Now, if you've read Robert Simonson's Sixties Accuracy in Every Sip piece in the Times, you won't be surprised by the Overholt. But you'd also know that when they needed a case of gin, they went with Tanqueray over Beefeater because the Tanq label hasn't changed much since the Sixties, whereas the Beefeater label has.
The Overholt label hasn't changed much, and I just rewatched that scene for the fifth or sixth time, and the label on the show matches the current label. The only thing different I see on the bottle is it seems there's a strip across the cap. I don't know what you call it; it's the strip of paper that's glued to one side of the neck, goes up over the cap, and is glued to the other side.
I suspect the prop master chose Overholt for the same reason she chose Tanq, because the label's stayed the same for so long.
But that's not what I'm here for. What I'm really wondering is, what Overholt would people have been pouring in 1963? The bonded or the 80 proof? Has anyone sussed out when the 80 supplanted the 100?
I may have overlooked that answer, if you've already discussed it. I searched through every page of this thread and I didn't see it. I see the consensus that Overholt would probably be better as a bonded whiskey, and I noticed that Overholt used to be bonded as recently as 1950, but I didn't see anything about the switchover.

Can't help much on the timeline of the proof change, but the strip of paper across the cap is the old-school tax stamps which as far as I'm aware would indicate a bottle from somewhere between 1933 and 1980 (would love a correction on that if anyone has better info).
Thank you, Andy. That makes sense, and it makes the bottle look more historically accurate, so it's good to know. I still sometimes find bottles with those, and I can't always tell whether they're just really old or whether the bottler is just going retro.

Overholt used to be bonded (and, as far as I know, only bonded) as recently as the 1980s. I've still got half a bottle left of an '80s bottling, still made in PA (but bottled in Cincinnati). Shaggy, but not bad.

Sorry I didn't mean to imply that at all, merely that they weren't "quality mixing spirits". Wether that means that it is too pricey or too bland, distinctive, sweet, or crappy to make cocktails with differs on a case-by-case basis. And this doesn't mean that the whiskey doesn't have other merits, even if it's a low-end one, merely that one of it's merits is not that it makes great cocktails. Jim Beam Rye is the same way in some regard; it is not awful, and can be pleasant by itself or in simple highballs, it just doesn't have the presence to work well in cocktails. Being priced similarly to Overholt makes the choice an easy one. Many Bourbons fall into this same category.
Sadly, Jim Beam is the only reasonably priced Rye in Australia, at $35 for 700mL (others start at about $50). As a result, I haven't really tried any others and wonder what I'm missing out on. The Beam has performed wonderfully in cocktails for me though, and stands up better in most everything than any Bourbon I've mixed with.

Video: Corasanti Trial: Evidence Points to Texting & Driving
Video: Corasanti Trial Day 8 Testimony
BUFFALO, NY - Prosecutors say Dr. James Corasanti sent or received 81 text messages the day he struck and killed a teen.
One of the phone numbers that the doctor called once, and also sent or received 15 texts on July 8, 2011, belonged to a woman who worked at the Buffalo Medical Group. Her phone was taken by Amherst Police from her job site on Limestone Drive in Williamsville.
Corasanti also texted another phone number eight times the night of the crash, including two texts two minutes after the crash at 11:23 p.m. That phone belonged to the Buffalo Medical Group, and it was not clear who was in possession of it.
Gould told the court, AT&T does not preserve the content of text messages, and if the text messages were deleted, he does not know how the content can be obtained.
The AT&T records showed Corasanti was texting and/or calling five different people between 10:54 and 11:19 p.m. the night of the crash.
Those texts include one sent to area code 614 near Columbus, Ohio, and one sent to area code 239 near Naples, Florida. Between 11:18 and 11:19 p.m., Corasanti was texting two different people.
The crash happened at 11:21 p.m.
The prosecutor tried to show it was difficult for Corasanti to engage in multiple text conversations. Upon cross-examination, the defense attorney was trying to show texting was relatively easy to do.
During cross-examination, Gould also agreed since the content of the texts was not available, it's not clear if Corasanti was sending very short or even blank texts.
The court also heard from Verizon Wireless Custodian of Records Scott Johnson. He verified the Doctor's text records.
Johnson said the texts Corasanti sent to the phone belonging to the Buffalo Medical Group the night of the crash were not actually received until 6:25 a.m. the next day, likely because that phone was turned off.
Johnson says Verizon Wireless only stores the content of texts three to six business days after they are sent. After that, authorities can request they be preserved. It's unclear if police or the District Attorney's office asked for the texts to be preserved in time. Johnson did not read any content of the texts.
Tuesday morning, Amherst Police Investigator Kevin Murphy wrapped up three days of testifying in the trial.
In Tuesday morning's testimony of Murphy, defense attorney Tom Burton tried to point out that Alix Rice was likely texting around the time of the accident while on her longboard.
Corasanti is accused of fatally hitting Alexandria Rice with his car and leaving the scene of the accident.
Burton asks: "You can't exclude the cell phone was in Ms. Rice's hands?"
Murphy testified: "Yes."
Burton: "There was an outbound text from that phone at 11:19 that night?"
Murphy: "Yes."
The text was from Alix to her father.
Burton also asked more questions about the fluid trail from the broken headlight on the car.
During cross examination, Investigator Murphy said, "It was in the driver's lane." The trail of fluid went from the scene of the accident all the way to Mount Holyoke Court, where the doctor lives.
Investigator Murphy testified about the rag found in the Corasanti's trash.
Still no indication if it was blood on it.
During cross examination, defense attorney Burton showed photos of other debris in the trash including an envelope that had red stains on it.
"There were so many maggots on the rag, they rubbed off on the can." Burton said in court.
While questioning Murphy, Burton said the rag was intermingled with other items and that it "may have included blood from everything, from a porkchop to a hamburger."
During re-direct Prosecutor Bargnesi got Investigator Murphy to admit they were drawn to the rag because of the awful smell.
The trial continues this afternoon with testimony now focusing on phone records.
On Monday morning, defense attorney Joel Daniels made a request in court to dismiss the trial. He cited an article that ran in the Buffalo News over the weekend that quoted Erie County District Attorney Frank Sedita in regards to a recent spate of hit-and-run accidents that involved drunken driving. Judge Sheila DiTullio denied the request.
The trial also lost an alternate juror. Alternate #4 asked to be removed due to an illness in the family. That leaves only two alternates because alternate #1 was placed on the jury last week when Juror #4 was removed.

Ashes 2013: Kevin Pietersen's third Test chances 'pretty good'
Third Investec Ashes Test: England v Australia
- Venue: Emirates Old Trafford, Manchester
- Date: 1-5 August
- Start time: 11:00 BST
Coverage: Ball-by-ball Test Match Special commentary on BBC Radio 5 live sports extra, BBC Radio 4 Long Wave and via the BBC iPlayer Radio app, BBC Sport website & BBC Sport app. Live text commentary on BBC Sport website, app & mobile devices
England batsman Kevin Pietersen's chances of being fit to play in the third Ashes Test are "pretty good", according to captain Alastair Cook.
Pietersen has been a doubt for the Old Trafford match, which starts on Thursday, after suffering a calf strain in the second Test victory 10 days ago.
He was unable to field in Australia's second innings as England won at Lord's to take a 2-0 lead in the series.
Alastair Cook England captain
"It's dangerous to start thinking of a 5-0 whitewash"
Cook said they would decide on Thursday morning whether Pietersen plays.
"He has come through training the last two days," said Cook. "He has worked incredibly hard with the medical team so fingers crossed."
But he added: "If it flares up during a match, then it leaves you disadvantaged. You're either injured or you are not.
"It is a difficult game to go into if you are not 100% fit."
James Taylor is in the squad as cover but the Nottinghamshire batsman may not be required as Pietersen trained on Wednesday with little indication his injured calf was hampering him.
Pietersen batted for 15 minutes as England's preparations mostly took place indoors because of the wet weather in Manchester.
The 33-year-old did venture outdoors briefly, for three 30-yard shuttle runs on a damp outfield, but quickly went back inside.
Pietersen returned to the England fold for the Ashes after a knee injury in the second Test against New Zealand in March ruled him out of action for three months.
Cook gave no indication as to whether 6ft 7in pace bowler Chris Tremlett would return to the team for the first time since England lost to Pakistan in Dubai in January 2012 following his call-up to the squad at the expense of Steve Finn.
The 2013 Ashes
1st Test: England won by 14 runs, Trent Bridge
2nd Test: England won by 347 runs, Lord's
3rd Test: 1-5 August, Old Trafford
4th Test: 9-13 August Chester-le-Street
5th Test: 21-25 August, The Oval
"It's great for us as a squad that he is back," Cook added. "He has been unlucky with injuries since his last Test match.
"He has been working hard. It is great for competition for places."
England can retain the Ashes if they avoid defeat at Old Trafford, but Cook is refusing to get swept along with talk that a whitewash could be on the cards.
He said: "It's dangerous to start thinking of a 5-0. We are a very good side but we take games one step at a time."
The third Test will see Ashes cricket return to Old Trafford for the first time in eight years, with the redeveloped ground now holding 25,750 - second only to Lord's (30,000) in capacity among England's Test grounds.
"It's a good cricket wicket," Cook added. "Since the remodelling of the pitch [the square has been rotated through 90 degrees] it might have lost a little bit of that Old Trafford pace that used to be here.
"But it is a great place and with the new development it is looking very nice. We usually get the break of the ball here and hopefully that can help us again this week."

It's not 'all over' yet, although it certainly looks to be heading that way.
So experience is still a factor in choosing between KP & Taylor, presuming both fit.
Can't underestimate its value. KP has done it all before, he may be going through a lean spell but the more he plays the more the likelihood of a big innings.
No half tons after the next 2 tests and if the series is won, then rethink.
Comment number 41. Posted by Vazeon 31 Jul 2013 12:09
Can't see a little bloke like Bradman, Lara or Tendulkar making runs.
It's a nice position to be in where whichever way the selection goes probably doesn't dramatically influence the result.
I'm just worried about the weather for the next few days, sun forecast tomorrow and Friday but I'll take my coat lol !

Just look at the last time these two shared the middle, batting for England.
JT scored a plucky 30 and looked very nervous.
KP totally outclassed him and scored over 150.
A fit, in-form KP is one of our top three batsmen (Cook and Trott being the other two).
Comment number 19. Posted by Jimmyon 31 Jul 2013 11:45
While KP can hit big innings he is unreliable and his fitness is now getting more questionable. With Australia struggling, surely this would be ideal for Taylor to get some experience.
Comment number 16. Posted by alexsmith55on 31 Jul 2013 11:42
Why not rest him for this test, maybe even the rest of the series and blood Taylor as the next in line. Bit of a gamble if KP breaks down in the field and can't bat as regardless of what people think, this is an important Test as if the Aussies claw it back to 2-1 then who knows what will happen
Comment number 7. Posted by Penguinon 31 Jul 2013 11:34
Fit or not, KP is out of form at the momnent so I hope that the selectors go with someone else. This match is likely to be the toughest of the test series as Australia know it's now or never if they are to have any chance of competing in the series. We need our in-form batsmen to nail home our 2-0 advantage. Now is not the time to select on reputation.

Well, I've done it. I actually managed to get my child sick of one of her favorite foods in the world. Looks like Pancake Friday wasn't such a great idea after all… So in tribute to the demise of Pancake Friday, I give you my final pancake recipe for awhile.
Now, for the record, these Sweet Potato Pancakes were not the straw that broke the camel's back. They were amazing. My husband's cousin asked for the recipe & they were a hit at her house too! These are perfect for fall, & just sweet enough with syrup & a dusting of cinnamon & brown sugar.
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup whole-wheat flour
- 3 1/2 tsp. baking powder
- 1 tsp. salt
- 1/2 tsp. ground nutmeg
- 1/2 tsp. cinnamon
- 1 1/4 cups mashed baked sweet potatoes (about a tuber & a half)
- 2 eggs, beaten
- 1 1/2 cups milk (I used whole)
- 1 tsp. vanilla
- 1/4 cup butter, melted & cooled
- 1 Tbsp. brown sugar
- Sift together dry ingredients.
- Add remaining ingredients & mix until fully incorporated.
- Heat a griddle on medium heat & grease with cooking spray.
- Drop 1/4-cupfuls of batter onto hot griddle & cook until edges are set & bubbles begin to form. Flip & cook until both sides are golden.
- Serve topped with maple syrup & a dusting of cinnamon & brown sugar.

1. "Studios are desperate to boost February ticket sales…"
The 85th Academy Awards ceremony will bring downtown Los Angeles to a standstill on Feb. 24, as hundreds of limousines carry some of the most famous — and valuable — faces on the planet to the Dolby Theatre in Hollywood. But the event serves a purpose beyond the usual back-slapping: It helps drive film buffs into cinemas during a traditionally slow time of year, says Phil Contrino, editor at Boxoffice.com, a wesite that tracks movie-ticket sales. According to industry data, the summer months typically account for around 40% of annual ticket sales, and the holiday season makes up a sizable chunk of the remainder. "January and February are typically quiet times," Contrino says.
That's partly because big-budget blockbusters hit during the summer when kids are off school, he says. Plus, consumers tend to be short on cash in the New Year, and with an adult movie ticket running $8 to $12, depending on the theater, Contrino says, even the most ardent movie fans can be reluctant to shell out.
What's more, movie audiences year-round may be shrinking: Admissions last year of 1.27 billion — the lowest level since the mid-1990s — were broadly in line with 2011, but came after a 6% decline in 2010, according to Hollywood.com, which compiles box office data. In other words, all those "For Your Consideration" advertisements splashed throughout the industry papers — directed at the voting members of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences — are ultimately aimed at driving more consumers into theaters, says Contrino.
2. "…but don't expect discounts."
Throughout most of the year, discount bulk movie tickets are regularly offered on daily-deal sites and elsewhere. But come Oscar season, such deals tend to become scarce, experts say. "If movie theaters discounted tickets now, it would defeat the purpose of the biggest promotional event of the year," says Seth Rabinowitz, a partner at management consultancy Silicon Associates who previously worked for a talent agency in Los Angeles.
How to cram for the Oscars
Time is running out to see this year's Oscar-nominated films before the Academy Awards ceremony. What would it take to catch them all? How many hours of your life would it require? Can you watch them at home? WSJ's Jason Bellini has "The Short Answer." Image: Getty
"We don't see any offers specific to Oscar-nominated movies," says Karen Huynh, analyst at deal-tracking site Dealradar.com. Daily-deal site Groupon, which occasionally offers deals on movies, says it has no plans to offer deals on Oscar-nominated movies. Living Social says it doesn't have any current offers for movie tickets though it says its coupons are usually redeemable for a few months, so theatergoers could theoretically get discount movie tickets by buying well in advance.
Of course, discounts of any kind are rare in the movie business, although theaters may offer promotions such as reduced rates for kids, students and retirees. If a film doesn't do well, ticket prices aren't slashed. The dud simply gets pulled from the theaters. "You can make a movie for $300 million or $3 million, and the ticket price remains the same," says Jonathan Taplin, director of the University of Southern California's Annenberg Innovation Lab, an arts and media researcher. "Hollywood is different from all other industries that way."
Yet, for the hardy, seeing some Oscar nominees for less than full price isn't impossible: Participating AMC theaters, for instance, offered a one-day, 24-hour pass to watch all nine movies nominated for Best Picture for $60. This year, the Regal Entertainment Group also offered two-day passes for $50 and one-day pass for $30 to see all nine Best Picture nominees.
3. "Pay no attention to rising ticket prices."
The glitz and glamour of the movie business comes at a price, say experts. As the cost of special effects and movie star contracts continues to soar, so will ticket prices, says USC's Taplin, who is also a member of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences. Experts say the Oscars go a long way toward persuading the audience that winners and nominees are worth the higher price of admission. "Prices will probably continue to rise as they have most years," Taplin predicts. "It's the only guaranteed place Hollywood can get money." Despite broadly flat ticket sales, the movie industry increased ticket revenue by 6% to around $10.8 billion in 2012, helped by rising ticket prices and more expensive 3-D movies, according to Hollywood.com, a news and entertainment website.
Oscars outlook: Favorites, snubs & face-offs
Will "Lincoln" top "Les Mis?" Can Daniel Day-Lewis beat Hugh Jackman? What are Anne Hathaway's chances? And who got dissed? WSJ's Christopher John Farley previews the action.
The search for new sources of revenue is one of the reasons movies like "Top Gun" and "Star Wars" were recently re-released, he says. Earlier this month, the 1986 Tom Cruise vehicle took in around $3 million at Imax theaters nationwide during its two-week release; it had a limited six-day run to publicize the 3-D Blu-ray release on Feb. 19. That's small potatoes given that "Texas Chainsaw 3D" has grossed over $34 million in the six weeks since its release. (As is typical for 3-D movies, tickets can cost from $14 to $20, including the 3-D glasses, depending on the movie and the venue.) U.S. ticket prices hit an all-time high in 2012, according to data released by National Association of Theatre Owners; they now stand at $7.96, virtually unchanged from the $7.93 in 2011, but those averages include student and other ticket concessions. Be that as it may, ticket sales currently only make up around one-fifth of a movie's total revenue, according to the MPAA. The rest is earned from merchandizing, television syndication and DVDs.
4. "Prepare for extravagance."
The famous Vanity Fair awards party is emulated in homes all over the country. Of the 39 million people expected to watch the 85th Academy Awards, using Nielsen's 2012 estimate as a barometer, many will do so in large groups who will drink champagne and nibble on Oscar movie-themed appetizers. What you won't see much of, party planners say, is chicken wings and beer. Oscar parties tend to be more lavish than Super Bowl parties. New York-based celebrity caterer and event planner Andrea Correale has worked for clients who have rented celebrity wax figures for $8,000 each and even one who, last year, paid to have a live Billy Crystal look-a-like entertain the party.
In Reno, Nev., publicist Jen Eastwood (no relation to Clint) spends $500 to $1,500 on her annual Oscar party; she even purchased (rather than renting) a tent, heaters, linens and champagne glasses. For Katie Depres, a Boston-based marketing executive and blogger, "formal attire is a party requirement." The Oscars are broadcast just weeks after 5 million sports fans upgraded their TV sets for the Super Bowl, so that new technology figures into the Oscar party tab as well. And that doesn't include the extra money spent by guests on the Oscar pools.
5. "You can thank us for that soda craving."
Movie buffs sipping champagne all evening may later feel the inexplicable desire for a Coke. Blame it on the $55 million that Coca-Cola has spent on Oscar advertising over the past six years, making it one of the single largest Academy Award sponsors, according to Kantar Media. Diet Coke is the exclusive nonalcoholic beverage sponsor of the Academy Awards. A spokeswoman for Coca-Cola declined to comment on the ad spend, but says the Oscars "is one of a handful of high-impact programs that is considered appointment television."

Chances are you've come across one in your lifetime. Your neighbor may be one. Your co-worker may be one. There could even be one in your family. Sometimes they operate alone and sometimes they involve their loved ones. The moment they wait for is over in what seems like the blink of an eye but there can be months of planning, designing and building leading up to a night of terror.
These people are home haunters.
The idyllic East Coast town of Fairhaven, MA is the home of several home haunters, individuals who are obsessed with turning their properties into elaborate and horrifying spectacles every Halloween. THE AMERICAN SCREAM follows three of them - a perfectionist IT professional whose wife and children help out with varying levels of enthusiasm, a friend inspired to create his own haunt, and a father and son duo- as they prepare for the big day. Their passion is immediately apparent and their methods are varied with some opting for obsessive attention to detail and others more concerned with overall effect. The common link between them all is an artistic genius bred from the love of scaring the pants off their friends and neighbors.
Director Michael Stephenson (BEST WORST MOVIE) has crafted another extraordinarily entertaining and heartwarming documentary with THE AMERICAN SCREAM. Despite bumps along the way in the days leading up to Halloween, the payoff captured is something truly special. In the end all the mishaps, slips, spills, scrapes and creative differences don't matter. What really matters is the sense of pride a home haunter feels by bringing together his or her community to experience the product of months of hard work. That and the look of frozen terror on the faces of men, women and children alike. (Brian Kelley)

Site Plans - Unincorporated AreaThe information provided below is a general summary of the County's site plan process. The specific regulations, contained in the Broward County Land Development Code, have been adopted by ordinance of the County Commission and cannot be superseded by this presentation of information. Please contact us for details.
When is Site Plan Review Required?This procedure applies to projects in the unincorporated area of Broward County only.
If your project is located within a municipality, please contact the city for information about the city's site planning process.
Generally, most projects in the unincorporated area will require either a full final site plan review or a minor site plan review, prior to applying for a building permit.
Review TypesOptional Conceptual Site Plan - For informational purposes, the applicant may choose to file a conceptual site plan, prior to submitting an application for final site plan approval. The applicant will receive written comments from the review agencies which can be used to evaluate the feasibility of the plan. The conceptual site plan requires submittal of 22 sets of plans, a 45 day review period, no neighborhood/municipal notification and a minimal application fee.
Full Review - This type of review requires submittal of 25-40 sets of plans, up to a 45 day review process, which includes approximately 20 County and State agencies, all unincorporated neighborhood associations within one (1) mile of the site and all municipalities within two (2) miles of the site, along with an application fee. Any project consisting of 20 or more residential units or 10,000 or more non-residential square feet will require a full review. However, based upon a project's location or use, in conjunction with the neighborhood notification/municipal notification requirements, the Planning and Redevelopment Division Director has the discretion to require a full review for many projects that do not exceed these criteria.
Minor Review - This type of review involves submittal of three (3) sets of signed and sealed plans (which include survey, site plan, landscape plan, lighting plan, and construction plans), a maximum of a six (6) month review period from the date the application is routed, no neighborhood/municipality notification and an application fee. The applicant will be required to route (carry) the plans to several review agencies for approval. Most minor reviews are small additions to existing sites. The Planning and Redevelopment Division Director has the discretion to determine if a project requires a full review as explained above.
Site Plan Review CommitteePrior to submitting a site plan (full review or minor review), it is recommended that the applicant meet with the Site Plan Review Committee, which consists of several of the key review agencies. This optional meeting takes place on the first and third Wednesday of each month in the Planning and Environmental Regulation Division Conference Room (Government Center West). If the applicant does not choose to attend this meeting, it is recommended they visit the key agencies (Environmental Licensing and Building Permitting Division; Highway Construction and Engineering; Traffic Engineering; Fire Marshal; Environmental Engineering and Licensing; Water Resources; and FDOT) prior to submitting their site plan.
Site Plan Review Committee Procedures
An applicant who schedules a Site Plan Review Committee meeting, will be given a registration form, a list of documentation they should bring to the meeting, a site plan diagram and an explanation of the site plan review process.
Applicants who wish to be placed on a Site Plan Review Committee Meeting will be given a registration form which will indicate the time and date of the meeting, the proposed development and address. In addition, the form will state that if the applicant fails to show up for the meeting without notifying the Site Plan Review Coordinator the day before the meeting, then the applicant must pay a $150.00 fee before they can be scheduled for another Site Plan Review Committee Meeting. Copies of the registration form will be distributed to the Site Plan Review Committee at the meeting. Each member of the Committee will write their comments on this form and transmit (fax or e-mail) them to the Site Plan Review Coordinator within five (5) working days of the meeting. The Site Plan Review Coordinator will attach all comments and send them to the applicant within seven (7) working days of the meeting.
The Site Plan Review Coordinator will call the applicant two (2) days before the meeting to remind them of their appointment. The applicant will also be reminded that if they fail to show up for the meeting without having notified the Site Plan Review Coordinator the day before the meeting, then they must pay a $150.00 fee before they can be scheduled for another meeting.
The Site Plan Review Coordinator will not allow the meetings to exceed the designated time limit by over five (5) minutes.
A standby list will be maintained in case of cancellations.
The applicant should bring the following items to the site plan meeting:
Mandatory Pre-Application ConferencePrior to submitting an application for a full review final site plan, the applicant must attend a mandatory pre-application conference with staff to discuss filing requirements, submittal fees, impact fees, plat restrictions, time frames, neighborhood/municipal notification and sign posting procedures.
Sign PostingThe applicant has seven (7) working days after filing an application for a full review final site plan to post a site plan sign in a visible location along each street frontage, along with submitting an affidavit of proof of posting. The sign, hardware, and 12-foot metal pole must be obtained from us and be posted by the applicant. A deposit is required for each sign. The sign, pole, and hardware must be returned disassembled, to us after the 45 day review period has elapsed and before a site plan can receive a final sign-off. The deposit will be returned after the sign(s) is returned.
Time FramesThere is no required submittal deadline for site plans. Once a full review final site plan application is submitted, the Planning and Redevelopment Division Director has seven (7) working days in which to accept or reject the application if it is incomplete. If the application is accepted, the 45 day review period will commence from the date the site plan was submitted. After 45 days has elapsed, the applicant will receive an "Approval With Conditions Letter" or an "Intent To Deny Letter," along with all pertinent Review Agency, municipal, and neighborhood comments attached. If an "Intent To Deny Letter" is issued, the applicant has 14 days to correct the deficiency. If not, the site plan will be issued a "Denial Letter." If an "Approval With Conditions Letter" is issued, the applicant has six (6) months to make the necessary modifications and obtain a final site plan sign-off from the Planning and Redevelopment Director (Site Plan Development Order); otherwise, the site plan will expire. The applicant must submit eight (8) sets of the signed and sealed, corrected plans (site plan, survey, landscape & lighting plan) and be routed (walk-through) for sign-offs from the commenting review agencies within the six (6) month time frame. In addition, all written comments from neighborhoods and municipalities attached to the letter must be responded to in writing by the applicant.
After the site plan receives a final site plan sign-off (Site Plan Development Order), the applicant has 15 months in which to obtain a building permit; otherwise, the site plan will expire. At this point, the applicant must route three (3) sets of signed and sealed construction plans to most of the same agencies that signed off on the site plan and obtain stamps on the construction plans and signatures on a yellow routing sheet. The applicant has six (6) months in which to accomplish this; otherwise, the yellow routing sheet will expire. After this has been accomplished, the applicant will receive a Building Permit Development Order from us. The applicant may then proceed to the Environmental Licensing and Building Permitting Division to apply for a building permit.
Expired Site PlanIf a full review site plan expires, the applicant may be required to resubmit for a full review (45 day review process, etc.). At the very least, an applicant must repay the (full review) submittal fees and obtain the applicable signatures for a new site plan sign-off (Site Plan Development Order).
Site Plan Amendment/RevisionA site plan may be amended or revised at any time, and may require a full review depending on the nature of the change. A small addition or minor modification to a site plan may constitute a minor review. This would require the applicant to submit and route eight (8) sets of site plans and three (3) sets of construction plans, along with a minimum application fee.
Minimal Site Plan requirementsAll site plans must be 24" x 36" and drawn at a scale no less than 1"= 50'. Site plans must have an accurate legal description, location sketch, a north arrow and a clearly defined boundary. In addition, a site data table must be shown and include: gross acreage, net acreage, building square footage and proposed use, number of dwelling units, required number of parking spaces, number of parking spaces provided, building height and pervious and impervious area figures in square feet and percentage. A commercial site plan must have a minimum of 30% pervious area, an industrial site plan must have a minimum of 25% pervious area, and a residential site plan must have a minimum of 40% pervious area.
Plat & Zoning RestrictionsPrior to submitting a site plan, applicants should check with Planning and Environmental Regulation staff to ensure the property does not need to be platted and that the proposed use is consistent with any plat note restriction. In addition, applicants should consult with the Environmental Licensing and Building Permitting Division staff to determine if the proposed use complies with the zoning regulations and if any variances are needed. Applications which require platting, are inconsistent with the plat note, and/or do not comply with the zoning regulations cannot be approved.
Final Site Plan ChecklistApplications for Final Site Plan Approval must include the following before they can be accepted by front counter staff:

Youth is one of the hottest commodities in Hollywood, so we're amused (but not surprised) by the recent popularity of bib-front tops and dresses on many a glowing starlet. 3.1 Philip Lim, Chloe, and Marc by Marc Jacobs all showed this sweet style at their spring shows. You might have also heard of the latest bib-front-page scandal, when Courtney Love (unintentionally, we're assured) wore an illegally knocked off Chanel dress in this style to Paris Hilton's birthday dinner. Bib-o-licious scandal!
Mischa double-timed her trends when she wore this (honey) mustard-colored, Marc Jacobs bib-front blouse to LA's La Scala recently. Linsday sported a sexier take on the trend in this sheer-sleeved, navy dress by Franny (this writer has-and loves-said dress in black). While the long-sleeved version was available during fall, we found both sleeveless and short-sleeved versions of La Lohan's dress at Scoop in New York ($245-265, www.scoopnyc.com). We additionally sleuthed out this great bib-blouse for a steal, above, far left ($22.80, www.forever21.com) And finally, if you're craving the mint-colored Marc by Marc Jacobs dress (above, third from right), it can be yours for $468 at eLuxury.

Years ago I heard a story about a farm boy in math class. The teacher asked, "If there were 10 sheep in a corral and one jumped out, how many sheep would be left?" This little boy said, "None." She said, "Johnny, why do you say that?" He said, "If one jumped out they would all follow. You may know numbers teacher, but you don't know sheep."
Now, before we hurt our sides from laughing so hard at our poor little wolfie friends, let us look at our own society.
We seldom turn on the television but we see where some crackpot has shouted "no war" and immediately he has a crowd of human sheep ready to carry their signs and shout their chants. They seem to do it with never a thought of the consequences of standing back until our enemies drop their atom bombs thus killing millions of innocent people.
Yes, we hate war, but we live in a world with people who like war and have no feelings for human life.
In the late 1930's and early 1940's President Roosevelt tried to encourage the American people to prepare for war. But for the most part his words fell on deaf ears. People said we are a neutral country. As a consequence Japan caught us with our guard at half mast, and a few million good people died as a result.
Now our president is trying to take steps to prevent the loss of American lives and the above named 'psyco's are calling him a "war monger."
This is somewhat reminiscent of what happened two thousands years ago when someone shouted "crucify him," and the whole crowd joined in with the same chant. It has been said of this occasion, "pilate's hands were never so dirty as when he washed them."

Art and design students work to fine tune the Rube Goldberg machine which needed exact timing and velocity to work correctly.
The students used materials of every kind to construct the machine.
The machine challenged students to bring six sections together as one.
Pinnacle High instructor Anthony Cilli provided his students with a unique challenge this year: constructing their own Rube Goldberg machine.
The Rube Goldberg is a deliberately over-engineered device which is named for its inventor, American cartoonist Rube Goldberg. At Pinnacle, the students were tasked with bringing together six different sections, which ended up including between 60-75 different variables.
The Design and Art students could use any and all materials they could find and were allowed to make the contraption as simple or as complex as they wanted.
Upon completion, the machine worked out rather well, that is until the class began trying to record their accomplishment.
Once the tape was rolling, it took the high school students and their instructor over 200 attempts to correctly document a complete run through the apparatus, which filled one half of the large classroom.
A full length compilation of the student's work and finished product was recorded and Cilli hopes to post the video on YouTube provided he gets enough parental waivers signed.
The machine was constructed during the third quarter at Pinnacle High by Brian Andrews, Mikenzie Axelgard-Felice, Bodie Barker, Tiana Burton, Eric Cloward, Joshua Hughes, Yoni Mediano, Baylan Nelson, Phillip Oliver, Cody Dean Sanchez, Skylor Stewart, James Stoddard, Jazmyn Westbrook and Taewoong Yoon.

As the dust settles from the successful run of the CEU basketball team, eyes now turn to the baseball squad.
Currently, the Eagles are in fourth place in Scenic Western Athletic Conference (SWAC) action with a 5-7 conference record. The team is 11-14 overall, and has been playing since early February.
On March 13-14, CEU hosted Colorado Northwestern for in a four game conference stand and swept the series. Friday's scores were 4-0 and 12-6.
On Saturday, it was 4-1 and 3-2, with CEU on top. It took extra innings to secure the final win for the Eagles, though.
However, when the Eagles traveled to play Salt Lake Community College, continuing conference play, the team was not able to overcome the offensive power of the Bruins and lost all four games.
Scores for Friday, March 19 were 11-1 and 8-0 in favor of SLCC.
Saturday's games were a little closer, but the Bruins still won both, 9-7 and 9-4.
This weekend the College of Southern Nevada will be in town for four games. The Friday games begin with the first pitch at 1 p.m. with the second game immediately after.
Saturday the fun starts at noon for the wrap-up double header.

YouTube user baracksdubs has previously created video montages of U.S. President Barack Obama singing everything from Carly Rae Jepsen's "Call Me Maybe" to the Pokemon theme song. Now baracksdubs has produced a new clip that finds Obama crooning the undisputed song of the summer, Daft Punk's smash hit "Get Lucky."
Is it catching on? It seems so, as in just the first ten hours that the video was live it was clocking an impressive 1,000 views per hour.

Baseball America's Ben Badler, who wrote the preview, placed the O's in his final category called "Bargain Hunters":
These teams haven't been mentioned in connection with any of the big-name prospects in Latin America. They will make smaller signings, but their international budgets figure to be among the lowest in the game.
Here's Badler's brief paragraph on the Orioles:
Baltimore Orioles: Orioles management has talked for years about wanting to get more involved internationally, but so far those efforts have been limited. Venezuelan lefthander Eduardo Rodriguez was a good 2010 signing who pitched well last year in the Dominican Summer League and is off to a nice start in the Rookie-level Gulf Coast League, but their actions in Latin America figure to be on the lower end again this year.

Wayne lost her daughter, Megan, a student at Toll Gate High School, to death by suicide in 2010, and said registration begins at 9 a.m., with the walk to follow at approximately 10. The event, which is called "Out of the Darkness," occurs in states throughout the country and was originally created by the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention.

On April 20, a teacher and fourteen students died violent deaths in the place where they had expected to be safe. The mothers of school students in Littleton, Colorado, thought it couldn't happen in their community. That was the kind of problem other communities might face, but not theirs. Perhaps camp directors have thought the same thing. Not in my camp!
It would be naive, however, to assume that no camp will experience problems of violence, weapons possession, or threats against others.
But if more than a million kids carried guns to school last year (a statistic quoted by the National Community Safety Institute), wouldn't it be short-sighted of us to say that none of that million went to camp? Or are coming to camp?
Of course, we don't know the answer to how many of them went or are coming to camp. It would be naive, however, to assume that no camp will experience problems of violence, weapons possession, or threats against others. Or that no camp will have an angry camper who threatens violence at some point over the course of the summer. How do we cope?
Securing the Site
The day after the Littleton, Colorado situation, I surfed the Web and looked at sites that dealt with violence in schools. I found in that research that schools use a variety of methods to deal with security:
Percent of Public Schools Utilizing the Measure
|Daily metal detector checks
|Random metal detector checks
|Drug sweeps
|Controlled access to school grounds
|Controlled access to school buildings
|Closed campus during lunch
|Visitors must sign in
It was interesting to see how few schools are able to, or have chosen to use detectors — the prevention method that gets a lot of newspaper coverage. Yet, in the past seven school years, at least 196 children have died as a result of being shot, another thirty-five have been stabbed to death, and eleven more have been kicked or beaten to death (National School Safety Center statistics).
While the camp industry lacks centralized statistics, deaths that occur in camps occur primarily because of drowning or vehicular accident.
Does that mean we can be casual about violence? By no means!
Recognizing the Risk
The consensus of experts is that site security is, at best, a very elusive target. When reading information from school safety authorities, much more emphasis in prevention was focused on the recognition of the warning signs that precede violence. See the checklist which follows that identifies those signs to which attention must be given to work with kids effectively.
Training must be given to staff to help them recognize these signs of potential risk, and camps must be ready to provide interventions to provide support to campers or staff members who fit the profile. This is a great topic for staff training, or perhaps a good place in your staff agenda to invite mental health professionals from your community for input.
Are Camps Different Than Schools?
There are some ways in which camps have the potential of an advantage over schools.
A greater level of supervision. Generally, camps average a 1:7 or 8 ratio, where schools may have 1:20 or 30.
Camp is usually a positive choice for campers and staff; school is mandatory.
Campers generally don't come to camp with rage already at the boiling point in relation-ships between campers or campers and staff.
Counselors are with campers through the entire day. Observation time is not limited to fifty-minute increments.
Of course, there are some challenges. Staff are young. They do not always have experience in recognizing negative behaviors in persons they supervise. Staff may sense that asking for help is a sign of weakness.
Once again, supervision is a critically important element in working with campers and staff. Be sure your staff know you are there to support them, not to criticize. We cannot assume that the relative infrequency of such incidents in camps means that we have it all together and are immune.
It is incumbent on every camp to take appropriate steps to protect campers, to implement safety precautions on the site, to train the staff, to establish and rehearse procedures, and to be diligent in matters of safety.
What steps can camps take?
In addition to staff training on recognizing potentially violent behavior, consider the following:
Be clear in your final letter to parents before the summer about your policies on weapons.
Establish a policy about searching belongings of campers or staff (see CampLine, October 1998 for specifics). Note that some camps already tell parents of their policy to help campers unpack their luggage and inventory items to help them go home with everything they brought.
Establish and enforce procedures for identifying visitors on camp property. Require that they "sign in" and wear some identifiable badge so that campers and staff can quickly determine if there are unauthorized persons in camp.
One director is considering asking parents to sign a form indicating they checked camper luggage to determine that no inappropriate items were brought to camp.
Which, if any, of these procedures you use will be determined by your philosophy, your relationship with your clientele, your previous history with campers and staff, and your intuition about what is right after considering all the factors. We suggest you make this decision deliberately, not by default.
Whether you institute any other procedures,
it is critical that you train staff in how to deal with violence, aggression, withdrawal, rejection, or failing to acknowledge the feelings or rights of others.
capitalize on the positive benefits of camp, which are recognized deterrents to violence — activities and positive interactions that raise self-esteem and teach problem-solving skills in a supervised, supportive atmosphere.
Originally published in the 1999 Spring issue of The CampLine.

Even though there are many programs to help people lose weight, more people are becoming overweight than ever. These programs are not doing what they say they do. The best diet and exercise programs are hard for people to follow. If the program is not suitable for you, the chances of losing weight are slim. The right weight loss program will do wonders for your life, but you need to find it, so we will try to help you.
There are lots of diets, and some are based totally on one beverage or food. People have been using the Grapefruit Diet for fifty years or more. The Green Tea Diet, the Cabbage Diet and the Coffee Diet are other examples of this. People have lost weight using these weight loss programs, even though they have been called gimmicks by lots of people.
The success of all diets are dependent on how well you like the food, and it isn't any different with diets of only one food or beverage. One healthy beverage is green tea, since it works really well for weight loss, along with many common ailments people have. By itself, there is no food or beverage that can make you lose weight.
Less calories and more exercise are the two principles that work with the best diet plans, no matter what program you are doing. If you want lots of support with your weight loss program, then you will have to find one that has it. If you like being part of a group, then you should pick a program like Weight Watchers. They have a place online where you can talk about your results, or local meetings that you can attend.
This type of approach doesn't appeal to everyone, but it can actually help to motivate you. You should think about using a program that gives guidance and support, especially if you have had troubles sticking to a diet. When you are accountable to others, it can be very helpful to talk with them when you are frustrated.
Exercise programs need to be used when you are overweight, but consulting with a doctor before you start is a good idea. Urgent medical attention, along with medication, is sometimes needed for those who are extremely obese. Being overweight also carries health risks, and your doctor can tell you about any specific limitations to keep in mind when choosing a diet or exercise program.
With all of the weight loss programs to choose from, your doctor might know the best one to fit you personally. Your doctor should be able to give you plenty of information on weight loss, along with any health wise concerns you might have. Weight loss programs can help you to make important positive changes in your life.
Unfortunately, many people start off with diets or exercise programs but have trouble sticking with them in the long run. The results you want, long term, can be achieved better, when you choose the right method in the beginning. In order to find the best program for losing weight, you need one that is consistent with your lifestyle and needs, and the tips in this article can help with that.
