Video update: Canning Hall construction in Comstock
Bell's Production Director John Mallett shares an update on the progress of our new Canning Hall at our Comstock Brewery.
Bell's takes bronze medal at 2013 Great American Beer Festival
A relatively new beer brought home a medal this past weekend from the Great American Beer Festival in Denver.
Sparkleberry Ale - a blend of our Raspberry Ale (made with Michigan raspberries) and Sparkling Ale - was awarded a bronze medal in the fruit beer category.
The beer was introduced at this year's Kalamazoo Pride, of which Bell's was a presenting sponsor. It is a specialty beer and only available on draft.
Per the GABF website:
The Great American Beer Festival awards gold, silver and bronze medals for excellence in 75 beer-style categories but does not necessarily award medals to the top three finishers in a particular category.
When judges decide a category contains three excellent examples of the style, they award gold, silver and bronze medals for the first, second and third place beers, respectively.
This is the latest medal Bell's has been awarded at GABF. In 2011, a sixteen-year-old Expedition Stout was awarded a gold medal in the aged beer category.
Videos: Roll Out the Barrel Celebration at Bell's Eccentric Cafe
We have 2 videos to share with you today from our Roll Out The Barrel Party on Oct. 6.
The first features Bell's Vice President Laura Bell and Cellar Operations Manager Sam Reese talking about how this event came about.
The second features additional video and photos from the event set to the music of Ein Prosit, whom also plays annually at the Eccentric Cafe during Octoberfest.

Carl Gustav Jung
Carl Jung founded the field of analytical psychology and, along with Sigmund Freud, was responsible for popularizing the idea that a person's interior life merited not just attention but dedicated exploration - a notion that has since propelled tens of millions of people into psychotherapy.
Whether or not he would have wanted it this way, Jung - who regarded himself as a scientist - is today remembered more as a countercultural icon, a proponent of spirituality outside religion and the ultimate champion of dreamers and seekers everywhere, which has earned him both posthumous respect and posthumous ridicule. Jung's ideas laid the foundation for the widely used Myers-Briggs personality test and influenced the creation of Alcoholics Anonymous. His central tenets - the existence of a collective unconscious and the power of archetypes - have seeped into the larger domain of New Age thinking while remaining more at the fringes of mainstream psychology.
In October 2009, a book that Jung secretly wrote is to be published by W. W. Norton. "The Red Book" describes his self-analysis and became the genesis for the Jungian method. The book, which spent the last quarter century in a bank vault in Switzerland, is billed as the "most influential unpublished work in the history of psychology." The original book, bound in red leather, will be on display for several months at the Rubin Museum of Art in Manhattan.
Jungian analysis revolves largely around writing down your dreams (or drawing them) and bringing them to the analyst - someone who is patently good with both symbols and people - to be scoured for personal and archetypal meaning. Borrowing from Jung's own experiences, analysts often encourage clients to experiment on their own with active imagination, to summon a waking dreamscape and to interact with whatever, or whoever, surfaces there. In its purist form, a Jungian analyst eschews clinical talk of diagnoses and recovery in favor of broader (and some might say fuzzier) goals of self-discovery and wholeness - a maturation process Jung himself referred to as "individuation." Perhaps as a result, Jungian analysis has a distinct appeal to people in midlife.
A big man with wire-rimmed glasses, a booming laugh and a penchant for the experimental, Jung was interested in the psychological aspects of séances, of astrology, of witchcraft. He could be jocular and also impatient. He was a dynamic speaker, an empathic listener. He had a famously magnetic appeal with women. Working at Zurich's Burghölzli psychiatric hospital, Jung listened intently to the ravings of schizophrenics, believing they held clues to both personal and universal truths. At home, in his spare time, he pored over Dante, Goethe, Swedenborg and Nietzsche. He began to study mythology and world cultures, applying what he learned to the live feed from the unconscious - claiming that dreams offered a rich and symbolic narrative coming from the depths of the psyche. Somewhere along the way, he started to view the human soul - not just the mind and the body - as requiring specific care and development, an idea that pushed him into a province long occupied by poets and priests but not so much by medical doctors and empirical scientists.
Jung soon found himself in opposition not just to Freud but also to most of his field, the psychiatrists who constituted the dominant culture at the time, speaking the clinical language of symptom and diagnosis behind the deadbolts of asylum wards. Separation was not easy. As his convictions began to crystallize, Jung, who was at that point an outwardly successful and ambitious man with a young family, a thriving private practice and a big, elegant house on the shores of Lake Zurich, felt his own psyche starting to teeter and slide, until finally he was dumped into what would become a life-altering crisis.
What happened next to Carl Jung has become, among Jungians and other scholars, the topic of enduring legend and controversy. It has been characterized variously as a creative illness, a descent into the underworld, a bout with insanity, a narcissistic self-deification, a transcendence, a midlife breakdown and an inner disturbance mirroring the upheaval of World War I. Whatever the case, in 1913, Jung, who was then 38, got lost in the soup of his own psyche. He was haunted by troubling visions and heard inner voices. Grappling with the horror of some of what he saw, he worried in moments that he was, in his own words, "menaced by a psychosis" or "doing a schizophrenia."
He later would compare this period of his life - this "confrontation with the unconscious," as he called it - to a mescaline experiment. He described his visions as coming in an "incessant stream." He likened them to rocks falling on his head, to thunderstorms, to molten lava. "I often had to cling to the table," he recalled, "so as not to fall apart."
As a psychiatrist, and one with a decidedly maverick streak, he tried to tear down the wall between his rational self and his psyche. For about six years, Jung worked to prevent his conscious mind from blocking out what his unconscious mind wanted to show him. Between appointments with patients, after dinner with his wife and children, whenever there was a spare hour or two, Jung sat in a book-lined office on the second floor of his home and actually induced hallucinations - what he called "active imaginations."
First taking notes in a series of small, black journals, he then expounded upon and analyzed his fantasies, writing in a regal, prophetic tone in the big red-leather book.
What he wrote did not belong to his previous canon of dispassionate, academic essays on psychiatry. Nor was it a straightforward diary. It did not mention his wife, or his children, or his colleagues, nor for that matter did it use any psychiatric language at all. Instead, the book was a kind of phantasmagoric morality play, driven by Jung's own wish not just to chart a course out of the mangrove swamp of his inner world but also to take some of its riches with him. It was this last part - the idea that a person might move beneficially between the poles of the rational and irrational, the light and the dark, the conscious and the unconscious - that provided the germ for his later work and for what analytical psychology would become.
He worked on the Red Book on and off for about 16 years, but he never managed to finish it. He actively fretted over it, wondering whether to have it published and face ridicule from his scientifically oriented peers or to put it in a drawer and forget it. Regarding the significance of what the book contained, however, Jung was unequivocal. "All my works, all my creative activity," he would recall later, "has come from those initial fantasies and dreams."
Jung, who was born on July 26, 1875 in the mountain village of Kesswil, was a lifelong outsider in Zurich, even as in his adult years he seeded the city with his followers and became - along with Paul Klee and Karl Barth - one of the best-known Swiss men of his era. Perhaps his marginalization stemmed in part from the offbeat nature of his ideas. (He was mocked, for example, for publishing a book in the late 1950s that examined the psychological phenomenon of flying saucers.) Maybe it was his well-documented abrasiveness toward people he found uninteresting. Or maybe it was connected to the fact that he broke with the established ranks of his profession. (During the troubled period when he began writing the Red Book, Jung resigned from his position at Burghölzli, never to return.) Most likely, too, it had something to do with the unconventional, unhidden, 40-something-year affair he conducted with a shy but intellectually forbidding woman named Toni Wolff, one of Jung's former analysands who went on to become an analyst as well as Jung's close professional collaborator and a frequent, if not fully welcome, fixture at the Jung family dinner table. He died on June 6, 1961.

Note: Brady Skjei Injured/Report On Him From First Four Games
Michael Russo tweets that Brady Skjei will be one of the Minnesota lineup for this weekends games. It is only believed to be a minor injury.
Robb from Clutter Puck sent this review of Skjei through the first four games of the season.
I will tell you through 4 regular season games, Brady Skjei has yet to fall into regular rotation on the defense even though he's played in every game so far this season. Through the 4 regular season games I've watched, Brady has been either in the bottom pairing of defensemen (3 games) or listed as the extra man (1 game) for forward rotation on the 4th line (this was the most recent game on Saturday night) so it's been kind of hard to tell how he's doing so far.
The Minnesota Gophers are pretty deep on defense with a steady top 4 full of experience so it's going to take an injury or Brady playing great in practice for him to show up right away. He's gotten some power play time and scored a power play goal but that was in a rout of Michigan State so it could be the coach just giving some other players a chance with a good lead.
In the games this last weekend on the road against a competitive Michigan Tech team, Brady didn't get a lot of ice time. I don't think he played in the 3rd period of Saturday night's game. He's just going to have to gain the trust of his coaches to get some minutes during crunch time in his freshman season.
All of that being said, it is just 4 games so far (not counting the 1 exhibition game that wasn't on TV) so there's plenty of time to see progress this season. He has the size, skating ability, the shot and hockey sense to make an impact this season or he wouldn't have been a first round draft pick.

AAA: Rochester Red Wings (MIN) 10, @ Buffalo Bisons 4
Collin McHugh was ok in a start merely designed to keep him fresh for his next big league assignment, September 3rd in St. Louis.
This was not a pretty game: the Bisons committed three errors while the pitching staff issued eight walks.
An 0-for-4 with two strikeouts dropped 25 year old CF Matt den Dekker to .215/.248/.376 with 88 whiffs in 73 games in AAA.
Jordany Valdespin played second, where he was 0-for-4 with a strikeout, and yes, oddly a walk.
AA: @ Reading Phillies 12, Binghamton Mets 8
Good first: 2B Wilmer Flores was 3-for-5 with a double and a triple and a strikeout. In, August, the month he turned 21, Flores is hitting .392/.443/.639 in 25 games in August with 15 extra-base hits to push his season line at AA to .328/.376/.515 in 60 games. That'll work.
CF Juan Lagares was 2-for-5 with a homer, his fourth. The 23-year old is hitting .279/.332/.385. He's hit for a little more power as the year has gone one. In the first half, he had a singles and doubles heavy .089 isolated slugging in 85 games, which he's raised to .142 in 41 games in the final 41 games.
Every B-Mets' pitcher gave up at least three runs starting with Cory Mazzoni: 3.2 IP, 8 H, 6 R, 6 ER, 3 BB, 5 K, 1 HR. It was the third time in his last five starts that he's given up six runs or more as he's now allowed 26 runs on 47 (!) hits in 31.2 innings in August.

On a brisk autumn day, a 13-year-old boy stands on the shores of the gray Atlantic, near a silent amusement park and a fading ocean resort called the Alhambra. The past has driven Jack Sawyer here: His father is gone, his mother is dying, and the world no longer makes sense. But for Jack everything is about to change. For he has been chosen to make a journey back across America - and into another realm.
One of the most influential and heralded works of fantasy ever written, The Talisman is an extraordinary novel of loyalty, awakening, terror, and mystery. Jack Sawyer, on a desperate quest to save his mother's life, must search for a prize across an epic landscape of innocents and monsters, of incredible dangers and even more incredible truths. The prize is essential, but the journey means even more. Let the quest begin....

Audie Award Winner, Fiction (unabridged), 2002
"A classic...rare and dazzling...a journey to rival the greatest adventure stories ever told." (New York Daily News)
"Extraordinary...makes your hair stand on end." (The Washington Post)
"Still Good"
I read this book when it first came out in the 80s. This was before the sci-fi world took the theme of multi-dimensionality to it ad-nauseumal limit. (I know, not a word.) Even so, it's still an excellent story by these two excellent authors.
I love the fact that when you read these reviews you get both ends of the spectrum and everything in-between. One compared this to Beyond the Dome which I thought doesn't even come close to The Talisman.
I also suggest Audible listeners get used to Frank Muller. He's all over this place and you're going to miss out on a lot of great books if you try to avoid him. His style always puts me off at first, but it always ends up growing on me.
"Simply a classic"
This story has it all: evil men, magic, adventure, a boy and his mother who are linked to another world and a dying queen, creatures of wonder as well as horror, and the best and worst of humankind. All of these headed across the continent on a collision course to the California coast.
After nine surgeries on my brain and looking at a tenth, audio is the choice for me to feel whole again. I am myself in the world of books!
"This is The Greatest Adventure Story Ever"
Looking for Adventure?...need suspense?...want to have fun?...need a vacation?..Well this is the book for you. It is long but the action and the different adventures inside one. You will find the strange and the funny so charming that you will not want to miss a thing. The beginning sets up the story and you may want to skip ahead. Don't do it this book builds you up to the task. You will need to hold on to your seat at times and remember some of the early charpters to get the full impact of some events. You will want the story not to end! It does end but... At that time get the book "Black House" to go on yet another adventure with Jack out hero.
"On a mission."
This is the first Steven King novel I have read and I plan to read many more. I couldn't stop listening. The book was not what I expected. There is a connoisseur like after taste that is liberating. From the reviews of others it bothered the politically correct crowd; however, theirs is not the last word. What an adventure Jack Sawyer had compared to his name sake of Tom. If you liked Tom Sawyer and his adventures you will find this listen intriguing. Just like Tom Sawyer disturbed the people of his day, Steven King's Talisman makes the same impact. I love it and want more of it.
Disgard the few bad reviews -- this book is wonderful, and Frank Muller was one of the greatest readers of all time...This isn't your "typical" King book, but if you loved the Dark Tower books, you will love this (and vice versa). I have forced over a dozen people to read this book, and have given away 4 tape copies over the years. I'm buying it on Audible so I won't lose it again ;-)
Awesome! I read this book when I was 16 and I loved it then... so now I'm 40 and listened to the Audiobook and still loved it!
"I have read this book, and listened to it."
This story is my all time favorite, I have read the book a few times and could not wait to listen to some one read it to me. This was my first audiostory ever and I would recommend it to anyone.
"An Adventure"
I will agree with two comments that others have made:
1) The book is probably a little longer than it has to be. Nevertheless the book kept my interest and I did not find myself tuning out.
2) The reader's style is very distracting at first. The way he would draw out the last word of almost every sentence nearly drove me crazy. A couple of times I almost gave up on the book for that very reason. But, I noticed that after about 180 minutes in to the book I got used to the sound of his voice and, in fact, the rhythm of his style became very pleasing.
If you like stories of adventure and you don't mind a dose of fantasy thrown in, you will enjoy this book.
"There was a little girl..."
This book is like the little girl from the nursery rhyme: When she was good, she was very very good, but when she was bad she was horrid. Slow to start, it starts to get good just before you might think of giving up. Quite exciting for long sections, but with just plain dull sections stuck in for good measure. Imaginative in places, quite flat in others.
Many characters are stock King (and possibly stock Straub, though I haven't read as much of his work). Old black people are wise and somewhat mystical (see also The Shining and The Stand). Folks in small rural towns are ignorant and racist (see most anything). Large slow witted people are good and loyal friends (see also The Stand).
And the book is long. Much too long. Filled with characters saying the same things over and over again in a long string (literally: see the main villains "what does it gain you to win the world" inner and interminable monologue and Jack's "I am the herd" stuff). Characters talk in irritating ways (Speedy's old bluesman patois gets old quickly, and Wolf's need to say "right here and now" and "wolf" in the middle of sentences gets old very very very quickly."
Finally, there's the narration. Good in places, but sometimes the narrator sounds like he's trying out for a Clint Eastwood role, with breathy drawn out sibilants at the end of sentences. But overall good.
"Too long"
I like Stephen King, but not this book at least in this version. Far too long, large swathes of uninteresting drivel. The story at times borders on the ludicrous; but at others in typical King style it fascinates.
"can't stand the narration........."
I love Sephen King and have enjoyed some terrific audiobooks of his books from Audible, BUT I just could not cope with this narrator's ponderous delivery - almost every sentence ending in a breathy whisper. I note the reviews of the book itself and may try listening again at some future point, but this time I couldn't stand it and gave up after the 1st half hour of gritted teeth!!
"Disappointing fantasy"
I'd previously downloaded Cell and Lisey's Story, my first introduction to the Stephen King oeuvre, and was looking forward to listening to this. If you enjoy Lord of the Rings type fantasy, this might suit you, but I found it very juvenile (maybe I was missing the point and this was a kid's book, in which case apologies). Also, a minor point but an irritating one - the reader finishes most sentences on a drawn-out sigh, so even the most banal of statements sound ludicrously melodramatic: "he ran himself a hot baaaaaaath". Thumbs down generally.
"Could have been about 10 hours shorter"
Stephen King manages to incorporate some novel ideas into the age old battle of good versus evil. However The Talisman is overly long and detailed. I found myself wishing he could have moved it on just a little bit quicker. Though it is written in a fantasy style it is not suitable for children due to bad language and horror elements.
"Worth persevering"
This book is really bloated on detail that can make you want to skip ahead to move the story on. There was countless times I found my concentration drift but the idea that there was more good stuff to come kept me interested. Which I?m glad to say does come eventually.
I found the narrator very annoying at first as every sentence ended in flair that gave the impression of over exaggeration.
However, after persevering I noticed that when this flair was not present ( and you notice less as the story goes on ), the narrator is very gifted.
The story builds to an excellent climax and always leaves you wanting to know more about Jason the history about him and the territories. I just hope the Black House is a good sequel.
"A great story and BRILLIANT narration"
I have never read any of Stephen King's books before so this was a first for me. What a tremendous storyteller he is! The structure of the book is half "quest", half "road movie", as it were, and it takes a lot of skill to maintain the pace and the tension throughout such a long book. Generally the authors succeed very well, though at times the pace is a little slow. If the book has a weakness it is over-reliance on the hero always to carry the plot; that said, he is an attractive character - a kind of American Harry Potter with attitude, perhaps. A plus point is that the baddies are REALLY bad, and be aware there is a lot of gore and violence, all carried off I should say with great verve.
What makes to book is the narration - an absolute tour de force in my view. Frank Muller's style is so perfectly matched to the authors' that it is almost that the book was written for him to read. Great stuff indeed.
There is a sequel, also available from Audible - "Black House" which is a much better book, which I've reviewed separately. Both are highly recommended.
"Will your nervous system stand this book"
This was a roller coaster of thrills and emotions right from the start. Stephen king does string your nerves out on a tight wire of excitement, deliberately drawing out lurid and frightening descriptions while you are screaming inside for the action to continue. Very clever man this King. I sometimes hate him whilst reading but realise that this is part of the fun.
Buy this and the sequel 'black house' if you like a good long gut wrenching ride.
"Good but bloated"
A good and interesting story spoilt by a labourious and over detailed narration. Despite which is enjoyable.

UTICA – Outstanding team speed outlasted a physical approach as Massena Central dropped a 5-1 decision to Section 5 champion McQuaid Jesuit in the semi-finals of the New York State Division I playoffs on Saturday at the Utica Aud.
Give Massena credit. They had a very good game plan coming in. They were banging us around and at first it was baffling to our guys. We told our kids to just keep skating. They did and thats how we were able to turn things around, said coach Al Vyverberg after his squad earned a chance to play for the state title by steadily pulling away from the Raiders over the final 19 minutes of regulation.
The Knights will now gear up to face Section 2 champion Saratoga in the Division I final this afternoon. Saratoga, the only high school team out of the eight competing at the Utica Aud this weekend that returns after an appearance in the 2012 final four, skated to a 4-1 win over Section 6 champion Niagara Wheatfield in the other Division I semi-final on Saturday.
They are a very good team. They play fast, efficient hockey and we knew wed have our hands full today, noted Massena coach Mike Trimboli, who guided the Raiders to their first trip to Utica since they won the state title in 2008.
Nobody expected us to go as far as we did this season and I thought we played well the first half of the game. As the game wore on though, we werent able to get any sustained pressure in the offensive zone and once we fell behind, we started to lose our composure, he added. This was a tough way to end the year but it doesnt take away from what has been a successful season for us.
After an evenly-played first period that produced no scoring, the Raiders broke through for the opening goal just 2:39 into the second when freshman Patrick Manning forechecked the puck away from a McQuaid defender in the right corner and slid it back up the wing to sophomore linemate Dalton Mullin, who quickly sent a pass across the slot to classmate Ryan Moffitt who made no mistake one-timing it into the back of the net from the left side of the crease.
Giving up that first goal actually motivated us even more, noted Vyverberg as the Knights kept the Raiders from gaining any further momentum then turned the game in their favor with a pair of goals in the final four minutes of the middle frame.
Ben Koppiel tied the game at 11:17 with a breakaway goal set up when the puck was knocked away from teammate Christian Leonardi as he broke into the offensive zone. The eventual game-winning goal came at the 13:54 mark when back-to-back close range saves by junior netminder Connor Paquin triggered a wild scramble on the left side of the crease that ended with Ryan Tallo stuffing home a rebound.
The third period started with the Raiders generated a pair of good scoring opportunities but were unable to produce the equalizer as McQuaid netminder Brian Quick neatly turned aside a deflection attempt by Moffitt at the top of the slot and calmly stuff Moffitt on a breakaway down the left wing.
Shortly after the breakaway stop, the Knights went ahead 3-1 when Jack Dugan snapped a wristshot into the top left of the goal at the 5:02 mark. Four minutes later, Tallo one-timed a pass across the top of the slot from the right into the upper right corner. Nate Pennington sealed the win when he netted a power play goal off an assist from Leonardi with 3:51 left in regulation.
Weve been able to play four lines all year and all four lines have produced for us, noted Vyverberger after his team improved to 19-5-1 heading into this afternoons title game. I thought that made a big difference in the third period. We seemed to have more fresh legs than Massena did.
After handling all 10 shots he faced in the first period, Kick was only counted on to make seven more saves the rest of the game in backstopping the win while Paquin finished with 23 saves working the Raider crease.
Connor was still a difference for us today even though we gave up five goals. He made some big saves when the game was still close, said Trimboli after the Raiders closed out the season at 15-7-1.
Were going to loss some quality seniors but we had a very young team this year and we have the potential to be successful again next season, he added.

Hiya guys,
I'm just wondering, can anyone quote me a price on what it would cost to develop a fantasy league website in php?
Something very basic, based around a racing sport, with no design required? I can cover CSS, and HTML as well as basic PHP, and feel quite confident with MySQL, but I feel completely stumped with some of the coding I'm required to do, for the website I have planned.
Just a ball park figure. . .

How about the inconvenience that I paid for this game yet it's kicking me every 25 seconds if I don't press a key? How about that this same new idle kick timer is also bugged? How hard is it to get this stuff right? Seriously do you guys even test the game for more than a minute before you roll it out?
If you join a game after it's already started and the round that's going on lasts longer than 25 seconds you will be kicked before you can even spawn one time... I waited nearly 10 minutes just to join the game because it was full, then when I joined I got kicked because the round went on for too long... I then rejoined and of course the spot was taken and the game was full again.
You could maybe see how this could be a problem? Why does it seem like all the updates over the last year have been aimed to try and kill this game off? If you don't want to continue running the servers then just end it. Stop dragging out customers who have been playing your game for over 14 years. I bought Quake III Arena several times due to losing the disc and such and also bought team arena and the pack with quake 1 and 2 at one point. I also re-purchased them because I wanted to support you guys. So when I bought my premium memberships I assumed that you guys would be updating the game for the **better**. Please don't think I'm just complaining and see that your player base is upset with the way things are going and there needs to be a change. I would be very surprised to find out that your premium numbers contradict what I'm saying.
Please don't say we should provide more feedback or anything. These bad changes lately just seem obviously bad. Let's just get things going in the right direction please? Or shutdown the servers.
Edit: Also from a programming stand-point. This bug with the idle kick timer being in place when a person joins a game in progress is VERY obvious and should have easily been thought of when this change was being implemented.
I know you are obviously getting complaints about people going idle during games for prolonged periods of time but this is clearly not the answer for this problem... How about if players get an average score per round of less than 1 after 2 consecutive rounds they are kicked? After all we know the real problem is people going to servers and trying to get deaths to cheat your tier system into knocking them down again and again. This will combat both idle players and those doing this.

As June Dairy Month Goes, So Goes the Nation.
The first June Dairy Month in Wisconsin was celebrated back in 1939. Modeled after National Milk Month, Dairy Month was intended to showcase the national dairy industry, always important to Wisconsin, in the face of drastic milk surpluses and plummeting milk prices. Early June Dairy Months included grocery displays, newspaper advertisements, and radio "milk talks" spots (donated by stations like WTMJ and WISN). In 1944, the concerns of the dairy industry had changed dramatically. June Dairy Month during the war years promoted dairy and the dairyman as "vital to victory" and worked to "portray the supreme effort being put into winning the ward by they dairy industry."
By 1950, June Dairy Month was promoting June as the month in which "when Nature's bounty is most abundant and our dairy herds achieve their greatest and best production" and science was used to back up health claims. Students experimented with white rats and milk to show the healthful qualities of milk. The experiments were supported and and sponsored by the Dairy Council.

Five years have passed since the Skandians and the Araluans made their treaty, and Will has finally become a Ranger, with his own fief to look after. He soon learns that even sleepy little islands have problems to keep him on his toes. Then he and his old friend Alyss are thrown into a terrifying new adventure, investigating the truth behind rumours of sorcery in a remote northern fief. As he stands in Grimsdell Forest, with the horrific, ghostly Night Warrior looming over him, Will must ask himself one question: is there a rational explanation... or does sorcery really exist?

"Great story, great narrator"
Yes, the story is great and I love the narrator.
The narrator. He's an excellent voice actor!
My favorite scene is when Will enters Grimsdell Woods for the first time.
The Ranger. The sorcerer. The temporary king. All men of myth and legend. What's real? What's fake?
Having listened to both William Zappa (the Australian narrator) and John Keating (the US narrator), Zappa is tons better. I like how he reads and some of his pronunciations of names are truer than Keating's (mainly of Evanlyn - Zappa says

"As good as the previous"
Enjoyed this book just as much as all the others. Just a note though, this is part one of two.
"Fun read"
While not my favorite in the series i still really enjoyed listning to this book. It's the first of a 2 part story within the series so there is a lot of setting up the story and discovering who the bad guys are. If you are listning to all the books and have just finished book 4 I'd suggest listning to book 7 first as, although published later, that story takes place before this one.

Cleveland Metroparks
4101 Fulton Pkwy.
Cleveland Ohio 44144United States
(216) 635-3200
Editor's Review
Midwest Living Recommends
Known as the Emerald Necklace for the ring of natural beauty it provides around the city, Cleveland's Metroparks offer year-round places to play.
Whether you're looking to go for a walk, take a hike, ride horseback, go kayaking, golf a round, try mountain biking, see zoo animals, glide on ice skates or zip down refrigerated ice chutes in a toboggan, the Cleveland Metroparks has a place for you to play. Established in 1917, the park district includes 16 reservations (park areas), the Cleveland Metroparks Zoo and more than 21,000 acres of green space. A drivable parkway connects nearly all of the reservations, beginning at Lakewood on Cleveland's Upper West Side and stretching for nearly 150 miles; nearly 100 public programs each month entice visitors to spend time in the parks. Since the national recession took hold of the country in 2009, attendance at the parks has soared, with families finding the value of rediscovering these natural treasures so close to home. The scenery is particularly dramatic when you consider how close you are to an urban center. Huge shale cliffs frame the Rocky River at the Rocky River Reservation, a heavily wooded area known for its willows, sycamores and cottonwood trees, as well as wildflower fields, birding and three golf courses. The Lake-to-Lake Trail at Big Creek Reservation offers visitors a 2.4-mile journey through dramatic glacial pothole wetlands in Cuyahoga County. A brochure offers self-guided driving tours of the Metroparks' most spectacular fall color drives. And every year, on the day after Thanksgiving, the tobogganing season opens at Chalet Recreation Area. The 700-foot-long chute has a 70-foot initial drop and sends visitors zooming 55 mph ($8 admission per adult).

Still, since I never heard any fan voice this sentiment back in September, it sounds an awful lot like delusional revisionism to me.
and this on 10/4I would prefer that we limit the number of openings in the starting rotation this winter so our pitchers have motivation to work hard and earn a spot.
and this on 12/30I don't care whether adding starters "blocks" some of our kids because a few of those kids are BLOCKHEADS. They spent last winter polishing their name tag on their locker instead of getting in shape. They need to understand that there will be a dogfight for a rotation spot in spring training and nothing will be given to them.
and this on 1/6Maybe I'm a crowd of one on this subject but I would prefer to see us add as much starting pitching as possible before camp starts. It would make up for a lot of bad luck. Players come to camp out of shape? Covered. Injuries? Covered. Sub par performance? Covered.
Let's say we do bring ten potential starters into camp and eight of them pitch well enough to go north. You only need five, so maybe two of them have options. The third guy becomes trade bait for a team that thinks they're going to compete but had a disappointment in their projected rotation. You move the salary and get something back for them.
and this on 1/24I'm not afraid of starting with five veteran imports in the starting rotation if they are pitching effectively. IMO, none of our young pitchers have earned a spot on the 25 man roster yet. A couple of them may break camp with the big club by default, but that's not the same thing as earning a spot. Effective starting pitching is always in demand so we won't have any trouble moving these vets for a fair return during the season as the kids earn their spots.
and this on 2/3Frankly, I'd be happy if Britton, Arrietta, Matusz, Bergesen, and Berken started the season at AAA. DD has put together a quality development staff and those guys could certainly use some of that. Maybe DD is thinking the same thing because Guthrie, Chen, Wada, Hunter, Eveland, and some of the minor league signings could fill a starting rotation if they had to. Burnett would fit in with that mob. In July you could start trading veterans for prospects and bring up deserving pitchers from AAA. If the pitcher stiffs (even Burnett) then waive them and move on.
and this on 2/6I feel the same way and suggested exactly that in another post. Having Wada and Eveland pitch so well that the team feels comfortable breaking camp with them would only boost the level of talent on this team. As the younger pitchers at AAA convince the FO that they are ready to return to the majors we can trade Eveland for a modest return and Guthrie for a solid return. IMO part of any Guthrie trade should include a ML ready pitcher with remaining options that can placed at AAA. This team has little pitching depth at AA that's not at least two years away from the majors.
Wada may show he's a really a ML reliever which opens another spot in the rotation.
All of this would force Britton, Arrieta, Matusz, and Tillman to EARN their return to the majors. Maybe they will develop a whole new respect for that opportunity.
IMO if Eveland out pitches the kids in spring training he gets the spot. The team doesn't have to eat his contract if they have options on the kids. I still think that all of the kids start the year in AAA unless some of the new blood completely collapse during the spring.

Tilburg, 30 September 2010 – Due to recovery of the market and the demand for environmentally friendly plates, FUJIFILM Corporation, Tokyo, has decided to complete the construction of a new line for offset plates at its European plate manufacturing plant in Tilburg, the Netherlands. When this new line is operational, Tilburg will be the largest Fujifilm offset plates production facility in the world. Here, all current and new types of offset plates for the European market will be produced.
The building of the new production line for offset plates began in 2008, but the installation of the machines was put on hold in 2009 because of the economic crisis. The new line is expected to be operational at the beginning of 2012. A total investment of approximately 100 million Euro is involved.
Growth markets
Looking towards the future, this investment will allow FUJIFILM not only to meet the growing demand for CTP plates in Europe, but will also significantly contribute to reducing environmental impacts by expanding the local production of environmentally friendly plate products. Furthermore, FUJIFILM will also be able to expand its supply to the high growth markets in regions such as the Middle East as well as to Europe in order to further increase its market share in the CTP plates market.
Fujifilm in Tilburg
FUJIFILM Manufacturing Europe B.V., is one of the largest production establishments of FUJIFILM products outside of Japan and produces offset plates and colour photo paper. The Tilburg R&D department develops products for existing and new markets, such as high quality membranes for gas and water purification.
FUJIFILM Europe B.V., part of the European headquarters, is also established in Tilburg. Among other things, it is responsible for the sales and distribution of FUJIFILM products for the European market, the Middle East and Africa. Approximately 900 employees work at the FUJIFILM premises.

Which one is it???
Case in point of idiot gnome users. Anyone know the "hot key" for switching workspaces with keyboard instead of mouse?
nevermind :-[ found it :-X
Desktop > preferences > keyboard shortcuts > switch to workspace options
They were disabled, so I made them ctrl-1 - ctrl-8 and ctrl-left ctrl-right for cycling through them
The regular scheme is using alt+Fx for switching to vts and alt+[1-9] or the arrows to switch between tabs/workspaces.
However I only ever use one workspace so I can't test that.
This is not really a reply. As a nubie using Gnome, perhaps I qualify for the idiot classification. I do, however, have a question.
My workspace switcher disappeared from the desktop. I can access it by using Ctrl-Alt-arrow but any and every effort to move it to the corner of the desktop where it previously resided has been futile. It will return to hiding no matter what I try.
My hope is that one of you will be able to tell me how to get my icon back. I miss it.
Thanks, and may all your children be beautiful and brilliant
Have a look at this link, it is for the workspace switcher in gnome
Basically it says to right click on the panel and follow Add to panel -->Workspace Switcher (you need to scroll down to find it), then select it and it should re appear

I started photography at a very early age by building a pin hole camera, followed by construction of a camera obscura for viewing prints. I became more serious about photography in college as my scientific work required specialized photography. Later, my business life caused me to travel extensively in the U.S. and many other countries. My camera was always with me, and I snapped many interesting and often very unusual pictures. In retirement, I have become deeply and passionately involved in photography, and I am excited about the tremendous potential digital photography has. I hope my artwork brings pleasure to many and varied folks around the world. Doug

Class of 1990
1960-1988 Dallas Cowboys
Thomas Wade Landry. . .Noted for impassive, sideline demeanor. . . Perfected flex defense, multiple offense, revived shotgun (spread) offense. . .29-year tenure with one team tied NFL record. . .Career record: 270-178-6. . .270 wins third most ever. . .Had 20 straight winning seasons, five NFC titles, two Super Bowl wins. . . Defensive back, punter with Yankees (AAFC), Giants (NFL), 1949-1955. . .Born September 11, 1924, in Mission, Texas . . .Died February 12, 2000, at age of 75.
Tom Landry was selected as the head coach when the Dallas Cowboys started their first National Football League season in 1960. He remained in that capacity for 29 seasons until new ownership opted for new field leadership after the 1988 campaign.
At the time of his retirement, only George Halas, who coached the Chicago Bears for 40 years, surpassed his 29-year tenure with one club. It took Landry a few years to develop his young club into contender status but, once he did, the Cowboys enjoyed exceptional success for more than two decades.
The Cowboys under Landry had their first winning season and their first NFL Eastern Conference championship in 1966. They didn't fall below .500 again until 1986. During that period, Landry's teams had 20 straight winning seasons, 13 divisional championship, five NFC titles and victories in Super Bowls VI and XII. The Cowboys also played in Super Bowls V, X and XIII.
His regular season career record is 250-162-6 and his record counting playoffs is 270-178-6. Only Halas and Don Shula top his 270 career wins. Landry gained a reputation as a great technical innovator, as well as an inspirational leader. He introduced the "flex defense" and "multiple offense" in the 1960s. In the 1970s, he restructured the "shotgun" or "spread" offense and, in the 1980s, he embraced and helped develop the "situation substitution" concept of handling his player talent.
Landry was an excellent player in the pros. He was a defensive back, punter and kick returner with the 1949 New York Yankees in the All-America Football Conference and with the New York Giants in the NFL between 1950 and 1955. He recorded 32 career interceptions and had a 40.9-yard punting average. He served the Giants as a player-coach in 1954 and 1955 before becoming a full-time defensive coach from 1956 to 1959.

Though it has a rather infantile name, celebrities and tastemakers alike are going ga-ga for a decidedly grown-up accessory: the bib necklace. As we mentioned in Looking Forward To: Spring Trends, this key piece of jewelry had a major presence in the season's shows. Now much-discussed fashionphiles like Natalia Vodianova and Mischa Barton are translating that runway look into their real-life style and are opting for everything from baby bibs to full-blown breastplates!
Speaking of Ms. Barton, we must point out that she was one of the first paparazzi-favorites to try this trend. She started piling on these theatrical pieces back in late fall, choosing a sinuous silver-and-neon-beaded number for a Guitar Hero party. Barton's selection-a Tom Binns Design Dumont Florescent Collection Necklace ($2325, 917.475.1412)-added a bright pop of color to her all-black outfit.
Barton may have been an early adopter, but she's certainly not the only one who likes this accessory. Last month at the New York shows, it seemed like nearly every single attendee had tied one on! For example, The City's impeccably coiffed Olivia Palermo showed up at Zac Posen's Fall 09 show in an ultra-glamorous version by Roberta Freymann. The navy Wine Drop Necklace ($220, 212.585.3767) appears to be one of Palermo's favorite pieces as of late, as she's been spotted wearing it with both dressy and casual outfits with great results.
Of course, not every woman in the world wants to wear bold pieces à la Barton and Palermo, so we also included a few subtler style examples in today's story. If you prefer your baubles to be a little daintier and less dramatic, just take a cue from Natalia Vodianova and Molly Sims. Spotted at Marchesa and Diane von Furstenberg, respectively, the two women both opted for bibs that are smaller in size but no less intricate and stylish than the supersized runway versions.
But enough with the examples-let's talk about products! No matter what you're looking for, we've sleuthed out the best statement-making styles on the market. Vintage aficionados will love J. Crew's Jeweled Palm Leaf Necklace ($175); it's got a gorgeous old-world look and is the perfect piece to dress up a simple t-shirt or sheath. Banana Republic-always one of our favorite spots for exceptional costume jewelry at a great price-has several can't-miss options right now. The coral Bold Bib Necklace ($69) is a stunner, so snap it up as soon as possible!
On a completely different sartorial note, we would also like to point out By Malene Birger's ($295). It reminds us a bit of Palermo's go-to piece in terms of its shape, though it has a completely different spirit! This bib has a futuristic feeling and is encrusted in chunky Perspex beads in jolly shades like neon lime and grape. Another excellent option is Dannijo's Ettalita Necklace ($320), a neat bib woven from interlocking rings. We love how it has a mesh-like chain mail look, yet manages to be completely modern at the same time. All in all, a drool-worthy option!

The chimpanzee is the closest living relative to humans. In fact, research shows that chimps and humans share 98 percent of their genes. Living in social communities of 20 to as many as 150 individuals, these primates demonstrate learned behaviors and complex social skills. Chimpanzees also have the ability to gather and use various tools to get food from places that are otherwise difficult to reach.
There are four recognized subspecies of the common chimpanzee (Pan troglodytes). They live in the mountains, tropical lowlands, and grasslands across western, central, and eastern Africa. A close relative to the chimp, the bonobo (P. paniscus) is restricted to the forests of the Democratic Republic of Congo. Common chimpanzees rely mainly on a vegetarian diet of fruits, leaves, and herbs, but they are omnivorous and eat meat and insects as well. Chimps hunt in groups led by an alpha male. They have highly developed social relationships, exhibiting complex behaviors that range from empathizing with to deceiving other members of their community. Cultural variation among populations may also exist—for example, chimp groups may differ in how they use tools.
Though chimpanzees feel at home both on the ground and
in the trees, they sleep in trees where they build nests of leaves and
branches. The Congo River divides the natural ranges of common
chimpanzees and bonobos, so the two species very rarely interact. The male common chimp can stand up to 5 and a half feet
tall and weigh as much as 154 pounds; the female is somewhat smaller. Chimps' arms are longer than their legs, which make them skilled climbers.Scientists have observed chimpanzees feeding on
medicinal plants when they are ill or injured.
Chimpanzees are endangered due to habitat loss and hunting
for bushmeat, the latter of which is widespread in Africa. Logging, mining,
agricultural encroachment, human settlement, and climate change threaten this
primate's habitat. In a number of countries within the chimpanzee's range, the human
populations are largely impoverished and often dependent on bushmeat for food
and money from selling the meat to local markets and high-volume urban markets. Where
law enforcement is ineffective, limited conservation awareness and few
alternative sources of income drive the wildlife trade.
Chimpanzees are vulnerable to more than 140 of the same
diseases as humans. As the numbers of researchers, eco-tourists, local people,
and soldiers grow in and around their habitats, chimps are more likely to fall prey to
viruses, parasites, and other pathogens.
In Cameroon, WCS supported the government in its creation of
Takamanda National Park, Deng Deng National Park, and Mbam Djerem National Park.
The parks help protect habitat for chimpanzees and other species. WCS also
advises the country on setting priorities for conservation, planning, and
the sustainable use of natural resources. With our partners, we have been
instrumental in developing regional action plans for the conservation of
chimpanzees across their range.
We are also exploring remote areas, such as the forests of
the Democratic Republic of Congo, to discover and count little-known common
chimpanzee populations that still occur in Central Africa.
In disease "high-risk zones," WCS-Global Health field
veterinarians conduct ecological surveys to obtain data and diagnostic samples
from chimpanzee and gorilla carcasses. The surveys help to monitor the impact
of diseases and to minimize the pathways diseases might take between infecting
humans and apes. WCS's Animal Health Monitoring Network provides critical
information to researchers and public health agencies about possible ways for
inoculating wild animals.
WCS works with the CIB logging company to reduce the pressures on gorillas, elephants, and other endangered wildlife in four timber concessions and to control the trade in bushmeat. This collaborative project is called PROGEPP: the Project for Ecosystem Management in the Nouabalé-Ndoki Periphery Area.
Forest elephants congregate en masse within TNS, a new World Heritage Site, sometimes in groups of 100 or more. Nowhere else in the world are this many forest elephants spotted together.
WCS VP for Species Conservation Liz Bennett details efforts to combat the illegal wildlife trade and highlights the urgent need for additional security forces to slow and ultimately reverse the decimation of myriad charismatic species.
The Republic of Congo formally expands Nouabalé-Ndoki National Park to help protect a rare population of chimps, known for both their skillful tool use and greenness to people.
WCS conservationists and their partners announce a plan to protect the Nigeria-Cameroon chimpanzee. Restricted to pockets of forest within the two countries, the subspecies is the world's rarest chimp.
A WCS census confirms a healthy population of western lowland gorillas in and around Cameroon's Deng Deng National Park.
WCS and IUCN launch an international, decade-long action plan to protect eastern chimpanzees by safeguarding 16 crucial areas where their populations number around 48,000 individuals.
The International Primatological Society grants their 2010 Charles Southwick Award to WCS's Joseph Mulema for his work to protect Cross River gorillas in Cameroon.
Gorilla population surveys, conducted by WCS, have helped the government of Cameroon create a new national park, which will protect more than 600 gorillas and other threatened species, such as chimpanzees, forest elephants, buffalos, and bongo.
WCS facilitates an agreement between Rwanda and Burundi to protect the largest mountain forest block in East Africa—home to chimpanzees, owl-faced monkeys, and other endangered primates.

Note: John Tortorella Still Isn't Worried About Brad Richards Having The Flu
For the third straight day of Rangers training camp, Brad Richards has been out with the flu.
Today, John Tortorella reiterated that the situation with Richards isn't ideal, "We want him here. Is it ideal that he misses these days? No. But he is getting better and hopefully be on the ice quickly and jump right in with us. It is out of our control."
Tortorella added, as he did yesterday, that Richards put in a lot of work in the offseason that should be able to help him when he returns.

Genetic tests pointing the way to personalized medical care are one of the most prominent results of genetic sequencing research. But what protections are in place to make sure that those tests are safe and dependable? Writing in a policy analysis in the journal Science this week, genetics policy experts argue that no mechanisms currently exist to ensure that genetic tests are supported by adequate evidence before they go to market, or that marketing claims on the up and up. "Marketing unproven tests to an unsuspecting public could undermine the very future of personalized medicine," said Kathy Hudson, director of the Genetics and Public Policy Center at Johns Hopkins University and one of the authors of the report.
Some companies have even begun to offer at-home genetic tests that would provide the ability to scan a patient's entire genome, looking for potential trouble spots. "Health professionals are now faced with the prospect of their patients coming to the office, a DNA profile in hand, asking for preventative management tailored to their specific disease risks," wrote Ken Offit, Chief of the Clinical Genetics Service at Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center, in the March 19 special genomics issue of the Journal of the American Medical Association. In this segment, join Ira and guests for a look at the emerging field of personalized genetic testing.
