Saturday, April 02, 2016
3.3J.W. Lees Harvest Ale
Shared 9.3 oz. bottle. 2013 vintage. Pours a hazy amber with a short-lived off-white head. Nose is a cross between fresh-baked pecan pie and a nutty fruit cake.

Friday, March 25, 2016
330ml bottle from Oakham Wines (Rutland): poured into a Duvel glass at home on 20th March 2016. Clear golden amber body, good, deep and full white blanket on top.

3J.W. Lees Supernova
Cask at the Cannie Man, Bracknell. An opaque, peaty black colour with a dense cream head; nutty toffee aroma; and a rather thin milky body with a malty taste and a weak finish. Not the best mild Ive come across.
Friday, March 11, 2016
2.3J.W. Lees The Governor (Cask)
A bit to mild, thin and anonymous for my likings. Apart from that nothing wrong with it :-D.

[Handpull at The Lion and Antelope at Manchester Airport in Manchester, England]

2.9J.W. Lees Pioneer
Cask @ Gullivers, Manchester. Light golden with a small head. Crisp and easy-drinking golden ale with very light malts and a lower bitterness. Has some berry-sweetness in its nose.
Monday, March 07, 2016
4.4J.W. Lees Harvest Ale (Calvados)
Bottle at the Foundry. Im generally not a fan of barley wine, but this sweet and fruity sipper turned out to be an excellent finish to a pleasant evening. Aroma of apple, cherry and brown sugar, pours out with a small head and an almost ruby color. The bottle says Brewed in 2013, and it certainly has aged well. It is quite sweet with the flavors following the aroma. Very rich, complex and balanced, quite smooth and with the alcohol quite evident. One to savor.
Saturday, March 05, 2016
4J.W. Lees Manchester Star Ale
This is the kind of perfectly good British beer that helps you remember why you ever liked British beer in the first place, and that a beer doesnt always have to be hop forward to be flavorful and tasty. Also, this is pro level stuff. I mean by that: it starts with a sweet dark malt front, but its more of a molasses type sugariness (where molasses itself isnt actually very sweet). There are virtually no hop flavors or aromas, but there is a mild spicy bitterness to balance out the finish, but mostly the balance achieved by the fact that the beer is fermented out to a semi-dryness, so its never cloying and thus it doesnt actually need a hop wallop to tame it. Amazingly light and drinkable for the relatively higher ABV. Only complaint is cosmetic, it was dark, cola-like, with minimal head - though the lower carbonation did wonders for the maltier body.
Wednesday, February 24, 2016
3.8J.W. Lees Harvest Ale
2015 vintage on tap at Churchkey. Dark copper with small airy head. Malt with tons of brown sugar sweetness, maple, caramel, toffee. Sweetness distracts from the 11.5% ABV, which delivers some latent heat. Like a big alcoholic Sugar Daddy. (I love Sugar Daddies)
Monday, February 22, 2016
2.9J.W. Lees Supernova
On tap in the Town Wall Tavern, Coventry. Nice and dark with plenty of frothy head. Body a bit thin. Little malt but plenty of red fruit.

3.9J.W. Lees Harvest Ale
2015 vintage. Aroma: intense molasses, caramel, dark, ripe fruits, prunes. Appearance: hazy, brown, hardly any head. Taste: heavy sweet. Palate: sticky texture, caramel, molasses, becomes super heavy sweet, overripe, dark fruits, long, heavy finish. Overall: excellent Barley Wine, maybe a touch on the sweet side, yet very complex throughout. Pint at Proletariat, Manhattan.
Wednesday, February 17, 2016
330ml bottle, then a 660ml bottle @ Avatar Nepalese restaurant, Shrewsbury. A very fine Nepalese restaurant indeed. Pours gold, white head. Aroma is sweet pale malt. Taste is clean, lightly sweet, pale malt. Not a bad lager really. Went well with my Vindaloo.
Sunday, February 14, 2016
3.3J.W. Lees Supernova

The essence of data analysis involves setting up data pipelines that consist of several operations that are chained together – starting from data collection, data quality checks, data integration, data analysis and data visualization (including the setting up of interaction paths in that visualization). In our opinion, the challenges stem from the technology diversity at each stage of the data pipeline as well as the lack of process around the analysis.

SiK has announced the ram din, a portable line-out and FireWire adapter for all Dock Connector iPod models. Access to an iPod's line-out audio is provided via a gold-plated right-angle stereo mini plug, while the FireWire port allows you to charge/sync your iPod.
"The ram din is the perfect solution for connecting your iPod to an external headphone amplifier or other device with line input," says SiK. The ram din, which is now shipping, is available in black or white for $21.95.

Handy, although I don't know if I would have put a 1/8" mini plug at the end of the line-out jack. Wouldn't dual RCA jacks have been more universal for connecting to stereos and such (except for car stereos, I guess)?
However, if someone were to come up with a line-in utility for the iPod, this might be a little more useful.

yea, and the cables are way too short.
Posted by LC Angell on April 12, 2005 at 5:12 PM (CDT)
Is there a functionality difference between this and the original din? I like that a lot better since I can use whatever the heck 1/8" cable I want. The 7" thing is way too short for anything with a male connector.
Posted by LC Angell on April 12, 2005 at 11:08 PM (CDT)
I have the Sik Imp thing which is basically this but with a female jack plug and a car charger to Firewire cable (so it can charge the iPod as I use it).
Coupled with a TuneCast2 it works very well in the car. I used to connect the TuneCast to the iPod's headphone socket and that worked OK.
Howeve, the line level output is much stronger than the headphone one so you get a MUCH better signal from the TuneCast and the sound quality and reception are both much improved.
Totally recommended.

To record onto an iPod as is, would require using the accessory port, and using RS-232 to transmit the code to put the iPod in recording mode. The information pertaining to this can be found at iPod Accessory Protocol.

Flanked by environmental leaders and other community groups, Rep. Nydia M. Velázquez (D-NY) announced new legislation to revitalize New York's waterfronts and bring American ports into the 21st century. The bill, the "Waterfront of Tomorrow Act," would take important steps to protect New York's coastal areas, while expanding economic opportunity and encouraging environmentally sustainable shipping.
"Whether it is commerce, recreation, transportation, or our local environment, New Yorkers' lives are inextricably linked to the water that surrounds us," Velázquez said. "Investing in our ports, coasts and waterfronts can improve our City and local communities."
To better protect New York residences and businesses from future storms and floods, the bill would harness the power of the Army Corps of Engineers to develop a comprehensive strategy making coastal areas more resilient. The legislation also encourages the growth of green spaces like the Brooklyn Waterfront Greenway and other coastal projects to make water-adjacent neighborhoods more livable. The bill also makes federal resources available to modernize ports and make them more environmentally sustainable.
"From commerce to recreation, the Waterfront of Tomorrow Act would take the steps necessary to strengthen and improve our harbors and ports," Velázquez noted. "Making these investments creates immediate, good paying jobs in construction and engineering, while strengthening our regional economy for the long term."
The waterfront and port system are integral parts of New York City's economy, with the shipping industry responsible for more than 269,000 regional jobs. In a single year, the dollar value of all cargo that moves through this region's ports exceeds $180 billion.
"It is no coincidence that President Obama used America's ports as the backdrop when unveiling his most recent economic plan," Velázquez noted. "In a global economy, shipping is all the more important and New York ports can serve as regional economic engines, creating good paying, local jobs."
When Congress returns from the August District Work Period in September, it is slated to take up major legislation improving the nation's waterways. Velázquez pledged to work with colleagues in advancing her proposal and its components as part of that legislation. Her district, New York's 7th, includes a range of communities close to the water in Brooklyn, Manhattan and Queens.

George Soros is an American-Hungarian billionaire businessman, philanthropist and investor and the chairman of Soros Fund management. He is regarded as one of the richest 30 people globally. This is described at Wikipedia. Read more at http://www.forbes.com/profile/george-soros/
Soros earned his Doctoral Degree from the University of New York for Social and Research and the University of Oxford in the year 1980. He graduated at the London School of Political Science and Economics in 1952 after which he fled to New York, taking a job at Wall Street Brokerage firm. After a few years of working, George Soros established his own hedge fund, Soros Fund Management with $12 million obtained from investors.
As a philanthropist Soros supports human rights and democratic issues through his popularly known Open Society Foundation. Till today, George Soros is reported of having donated more than $8 billion for liberal political networks for instance those of Hillary Clinton. Forbes reports that he is highly esteemed for his investment prediction in the financial market at the moment he made a profit of $1 Billion during the Black Wednesday currency crisis in United Kingdom. He was even codenamed "the man who broke the Bank of England". Soros wealth is approximated to be $26.5 billion and is managed at Soros Fund management.
Earlier this year, George Soros predicted that the prices of Gold would surge inevitably following a fallout of the China economy. He compared the current debt-fueled economy of China to the 2007-2008 scenario of the United States before credit markets fluctuated and seized up, prompting a global downturn. He insisted that the scenario was unavoidable and that an effort to stabilize the economy would result to a surge in the prices of Gold. This is reported by Bloomberg
George Soros therefore opted to reduce his investments in US-based stocks by more than a third in the 1st quarter of the year while he bought shares worth $264 million in one of the leading producers of Gold, Barrick Gold Corporation.

rochefort [Film Festival 03.16.10] movie review action thriller drama adventure
Year: 2010
Directors: Neil Marshall
Writers: Neil Marshall
IMDB: link
Trailer: link
Review by: rochefort
Rating: 7 out of 10
In "Centurion", the latest from director Neil Marshall, the year is A.D. 117. Quintus Dias (Michael Fassbender) is the commanding officer at one of a handful of Roman garrisons established throughout Northern Britain in an effort to subdue and conquer the Picts, who have been successfully repelling the Romans through a prolonged campaign of guerilla warfare. After a sneak attack which leaves Dias the only survivor, he's rescued by the famed Ninth Legion, led by General Virilius (Dominic West), who has been ordered by the Roman high command to end the resistance by any means necessary, and been given a mute Pict tracker guide (Olga Kurylenko) to lead them to Gorlacon, the Pict king, and to supposed victory. The Ninth is soon ambushed, and within minutes the Picts have slaughtered 5,000 of Rome's finest soldiers. After a botched attempt to retrieve Virilius from the Pict stronghold, Dias and the six only other survivors soon find themselves hunted by a tracking party through the cold and brutal British countryside.
There's a lot of geek love for director Marshall, and it's easy to see why. "Dog Soldiers" and "The Descent" are excellent B movies instilled with a sense of fun and innovation (and in "Descent"'s case, genuine scares) that calls to mind the early career of John Carpenter, a genre icon to whom Marshall is frequently compared. "Doomsday" was admittedly a cluttered and indulgent misstep, but in my opinion we'd probably have a much different opinion of that one if Marshall had simply eliminated one or two of the script's many tangential subplots (my vote would be to lose the medieval thing). And in all cases Marshall demonstrates a keen and fresh eye for action scenes; he's one of the few directors who can effectively blend a quick-cutting style with clean and clear frame composition, and is known for personally handling a lot of the work that would typically go to a second unit. The ambush of the Ninth is a prime example, the scene cutting from one bloody battle shot to the next with a rhythm that is almost march-like. It's a more subtle than flashy approach, but nonetheless proves that there are still ways to breathe new life into hack-and-slash fight choreography. So it's satisfying to note that "Centurion", while not a perfect film or even his best, seems to confirm that "Doomsday" was indeed just a blip on what is turning out to be an otherwise consistent and promising body of work.
One of the first things I couldn't help but notice here is the old-school approach to just about everything. There's no obvious CGI on display, not even to enhance the super-gory kills, and the location cinematography makes excellent use of the English and Scottish countryside. The costumes and makeup design are nothing short of eye-popping, especially for the Picts. Marshall's a Scotsman, after all, and knows his woad; the pagan punk face-paint and "Road Warrior"-esque ensembles are richly intricate and, by all accounts, as historically accurate as possible. The cast is uniformly solid too, Fassbender in particular further proving why he's increasingly in demand as a leading man, as the guy can do pretty much anything. West and Liam Cunningham also turn in fine work in supporting roles, but the real treat is Kurylenko. I'm admittedly biased since I think she's one of the hottest women on multiple planets, but here she's playing a woman from a culture that had an equal-opportunity philosophy about who could and couldn't go to battle. If you could swing a sword, you were in, and both Kurylenko and Axelle Carolyn (as a bloodthirsty Pict archer) sell their roles as warriors with absolute conviction, and are often more believably vicious than their male counterparts.
If there's a downside to the proceedings, it's a forgivable one. "Centurion" will inevitably be compared to other recent sword-and-sandals movies like "Gladiator" or "300", but was made for a fraction of either of those films' budgets. And while it avoids the narrative bloat of "Gladiator" and the stylistic overkill of "300", it also whets the appetite enough that you can't help but wonder what Marshall would have done with a more epic-sized pile of production money. The final twenty minutes or so seem a bit rushed, and don't really provide the emotional or kinetic payoff that we've been promised, and again I think this is due to budget limits, since everybody involved seems plenty capable. Thankfully, Marshall is astute enough to know where to put the gold. All of the key battle scenes are top-notch, each full of at least a couple of moments that bring the hurt with absolute authority. Lean and burly, "Centurion" is an encouraging step forward from a director who seems primed to be one of our best.

Edwina H. Trichler, 93, Yates Center, passed away March 1, 2013, at Coffey County Hospital after a brief illness. Edwina was born Edwina H. Bomhoff on Feb. 24, 1920, in Kansas City, Mo., the daughter of Mabel Florence Bertch Bomhoff and Harrison Russell Bomhoff. She was supposed to be a boy so she was named after her grandfather George Edwin Bertch.
Edwina was the third of Harry and Mabel's eight children. The family moved to Wichita when Edwina was two months old. She graduated from East High School in Wichita. She was baptized as a baby and was always interested in the missionary society, beginning with the Otterbein Guild at age 13. She was devoted to the church until her death, and still attended services when she could.

Edwina graduated from York College at York, Neb., in 1942. At York, she met Harvey Winter Klick, and they were married June 12, 1943. They lived in Wichita for a year, then Harvey entered military service with the Army Air Force. After he was discharged they moved to the Klick family farm north of Toronto, where Edwina's daughter Beth Hamman and Beth's husband Michael, have operated a hunting preserve since 1978. Edwina and Harvey lived on the farm until 1972, when they moved to Yates Center. Harvey managed the Woodson County Co-op until his death in 1976.

Edwina's son, Harvey Wayne, 53, is married to the former Lucy Lenore Shanklin, and they live in Lawrence. She had nine grandchildren and 20 great-grandchildren, with another on the way.
Her marriage to Mr. Trichler gave Edwina a second family. Her stepchildren are Norman Trichler, 75, Johannesburg, South Africa, Karen Rogers, 70, Harrisonville, Mo., and Sharen Stockebrand, 64, Yates Center. Wayne had nine grandchildren, and 15 great-grandchildren. Her brother Russell Bomhoff and sister Winifred Cloud live in Wichita. Her sister Esther Bocock lives in Phoenix, Ariz.
Edwina was preceded in death by her parents, her two husbands and siblings Marie McLaughlin, Anna Louise Hammer, Ruth Elliot, and John Bomhoff. Edwina was loved by all who knew her. Her family, friends, church, and the community at large will miss her.
Services for Edwina are at 10:30 a.m. Wednesday at First United Methodist Church in Yates Center.
Burial will follow in Yates Center Cemetery. The family will receive friends at Campbell Funeral Home from 6 to 8 p.m. today. Memorials are suggested to the Restless Leg Syndrome Foundation or First United Methodist Church in Yates Center.
