College Hockey:Clarkson Cruises To Sweep Of Union
SCHENECTADY, N.Y. — After Friday's loss to Clarkson, Union coach Nate Leaman said his team was good at coming back from adversity.
Unfortunately for Union, the Dutchmen proved Leaman wrong.
The Golden Knights came out flying in the first period Saturday, scoring three times en route to a 5-2 victory over the Dutchmen and a sweep of their ECAC tournament first-round series at Messa Rink at Achilles Center.
The Knights (15-16-5), playing in their first road playoff series since 1988, advance to the quarterfinals against second-seeded Cornell next weekend in Ithaca. The Dutchmen, who have lost 13 straight playoff games since winning Game 1 of the 1994 quarterfinals against Rensselaer, end their season with a 14-17-5 record.
Union will have plenty of time to contemplate a home-ice playoff failure for the second straight year. The Dutchmen lost to RPI last year.
"It's tough to go out in the first round, no matter how we played," Dutchmen captain Glenn Sanders said.
Instead of coming out with fire, the Dutchmen were tight. The majority of the first 10 minutes was spent in the Union zone. Clarkson had the first 10 shots on goal of the game. Union didn't get its first one until 9:03 was left in the period.
By then, the Knights had a 2-0 lead. Mac Faulkner scored 3:33 into the game on a shot from the bottom of the right circle. Chris Blight scored a power-play goal at 7:20. Tristan Lush made it a three-goal margin with 4:45 left, converting a Jean Desrochers pass on a two-on-one.
"I don't think we were scared," Leaman said. "I think we came out flat the first 20 minutes. They got a couple of soft goals. The third goal was a good goal, but the first two were kind of soft. It dug us in a hole."
But it was a beautiful sight for Clarkson coach George Roll.
"I thought it was our best period of the weekend," Roll said. "I thought in the first period, we were on top of things. We executed on the specialty teams. Our power play was moving. Our penalty killing did an awesome job."
Blight credited the Knights' defense with making life miserable for the Dutchmen.
"They did a good job stepping up not giving them time to get their feet moving," Blight said. "They stepped up in the neutral zone and broke up a lot of passes. They took away their transition game."
Jordan Webb had two shots hit the crossbar in each of the first two periods. The first one came with 7:48 in the first, and it could have pulled the Dutchmen to within one. The second one came 55 seconds into the second.
Webb finally found the back of the net 44 seconds into the third period when he fired a wrist shot from the slot over goalie Dustin Traylen's glove.
"Obviously, it was frustrating [hitting the crossbar]," said Webb, who led the Dutchmen with 30 points. "If [the first one] goes in, it could change the game. I think it's going to be in the back of my mind for the rest of the summer and until next season."
Chris Brekelmans' power-play goal at 8:30 of the third made it 4-1. After the goal, goalie Kris Mayotte was given a 10-minute misconduct for arguing with referee Tim Kotyra. Jason Visser cut it two with 6:06 left, but Jay Latulippe beat Tim Roth on a two-on-one break 1:02 later.
"Clarkson brought a very high intensity into the playoffs," Leaman said. "We weren't able to match their intensity."

The action figure franchise steps toward the live-action realm, with Ben Winchell in the title role.
Max Steel director Stewart Handler has begun testing young actors and actresses for the adaptation of the Mattel property.
Toy giant Mattel has launched its own in-house production company, Playground Pictures, which will come out of the gate with a new animated venture called Hot Wheels: The Origin of Awesome.
Mattel has announced its Max Steel film is moving forward, with Stewart Hendler directing from a script by Christopher Yost.
Mattel is moving forward with Max Steel as a multimedia franchise, with a Disney XD animated series, live-action short, video game, toy line and comic books.
As far as whistleblowing goes, a leaked email revealing upcoming projects from Paramount Pictures may not be up there in terms of making the world a better place, but it makes for interesting reading nonetheless.

The playlist continues!
Don't forget to leave a comment, share on Facebook, or Tweet to us the songs you are including in your daughter's playlist…
If you're just tuning in…let's get you caught up with some background info. Then you can check out Tracks 1-5 and Tracks 6-10.
Now here's the next five tracks on my Ultimate Dad to Daughter Mixtape.
Track 11
Hips Don't Lie by Shakira feat. Wyclef Jean
There is more depth to this selection than one might think. Importantly, it allows Wyclef to sneak into The Playlist without reaching into "Carnival" (my favorite rap album from high school) or going all "Fugees" on you.
The track starts with a trumpet part I can actually play, so that's kind of cool. Anytime I can help Harper see that music is bigger than the radio, and that ALL instruments are valid options, I am for it.
It's also a song about hips. It's scandalous without the scandal. Shake em.
Track 12
Sometimes I Feel Like a Motherless Child by Hootie and the Blowfish
Back when it was cool to HIDE tracks on CDs this spiritual made into one of the most successful albums of all time. I am copping out on this one, rather than choosing ONE song from the album that defined my teenage years, I chose the only track that no one really remembers, partly because it's hidden at the end of the album. Darius Rucker's voice will always make me feel like I'm where I belong.
In future years I will be able to use this song to talk less about those kids without Mommies (which is what I talk about now) and more about the awful truths that surround and continue to cloud society. Racism is awful. Forging into that discussion will be tricky, but this song gives us a foundation to start.
Good can come of all bad, I am convinced of that. It doesn't make bad thing good. But the spirituals that emerged from a desperate, oppressed, but hopeful people will forever be a testament of strength to me.
Track 13
Detroit Medley by Bruce Springsteen
"The Boss" was going to make the cut, it was just a matter of when and which track. So he gets the glory of being dead center on my daughter's playlist and I chose a song that captures what Bruce does best. He's a working class guy, with an ability to capture an audience with his energy. Detroit Medley honors the city I was born in with a raucous race of chords and sweat. Bruce's approach to music went lost on me through my twenties but something about being employed and tired make his music come to life. His songs are no longer about you, they're about me. He's the bartender of rock stars, putting himself aside so he can share in our stories. While he's the one singing, I feel like I'm the one leading him. And the energy he brings to every moment of his performance is one of the most admirable realities popular music has ever seen.
Track 14
Goodbye Until Tomorrow by Jason Robert Brown from "The Last Five Years"
Musical theater is an important part of Harper's parents' lives. Kym and I have performed in several productions separately and also in a show together. Harper's playlist already features a moment from RENT, but I specifically chose to add this song to her playlist because of the story it tells. Jason Robert Brown is an amazing lyricist and composer because he is able to capture emotions in his piano. His use of instrumentation is impossible to resist. His music can MAKE you feel the way he wants you to feel, and this song (and the entire show) puts raw, real, and relevant emotions side by side.
In this duet, the girl is saying goodbye after a meaningful date and first kiss. You can hear her floating. The music soars with the brilliance of young love. The man is singing goodbye to their marriage (year's later in chronology). As you listen to him, you can hear his devastating reality that all is lost. He's confused. He's convinced. He's sad. And it's awful. The music brilliantly wanders without direction in the abyss of heartache.
And then in a musical stroke of genius they happen SIMULTANEOUSLY. If music helps us understand ourselves, this song gives space for the exploration of how high and low one can feel in relationships when we allow people to join us in the mess of life. It is so exciting and so scary to allow people into our hearts. Our hearts are filled. And our hearts are broken. As a Dad I dread both of these moments for my daughter, but the conversation this song begs for is helping us both prepare for it.
Track 15
Awake My Soul by Mumford & Sons
Well, I've written about it before. This song changed my relationship with my daughter. It changed our routine. It changed her expectations of me as Dad. This song become a nightly prayer for she and I. For months I sang her this song every single night before I closed her door behind me.
I put it here to help heal the type of hurt Track 14 leaves my heavy heart with. In the sadness and fear a broken heart can leave you with, I find this song fills me back up with hope. At the bottom, on empty, I find myself looking to be filled up. Singing Awake My Soul helps me. It reminds me that I cannot do this on my own. It reminds me that there is more at work then the immediate picture I am looking at. It reminds me to look further, to look deeper, to look up.
This song will exist to forever encourage me and my daughter to remember that it's bigger than just us. When I get lost in a sea of me, this song reminds me of my little girl who makes my heart sing. When I think of her singing along with me I am reminded of how blessed I am. When I think of how good my life has been, even in the dark spots, I am humbled, and even with a heavy sigh can start putting my smiles back together.
Don't forget to share songs from your playlist on Facebook, Twitter, or in the comments section below and join me next week to see how The Playlist ends…

W. Va. Revenue Officials Give More Money to State Road Fund after Unforseen Disasters
Written by Your 5News Team
Last updated on January 04, 2013 @ 6:53PM
Created on January 04, 2013 @ 4:09PM
CHARLESTON, W.Va. (AP) - West Virginia revenue officials had to give the State Road Fund a $6.5 million infusion last month after three costly and unforeseen disasters tapped much of its cash.
The state Department of Transportation has spent a lot of money in a short amount of time to make roads passable after the June 29 derecho, Superstorm Sandy, and last month's powerful natural gas line explosion near Sissonville that badly damaged a portion of Interstate 77.
Officials told the Charleston Daily Mail that the final cost of the emergency overnight paving job that reopened I-77 has yet to be tallied, but costs from the other events totaled $30 million. The transfer made in December should be enough to cover road fund costs until the state receives money from the federal government.

We'd describe it as "crafty", but that's not a way of making a Project Runway-ish disparaging remark about this neon bikini from Voda Swim ($128). It's more like the braiding on the halter and bottom remind us of those neon nylon fabric craft loops that you'd use to make pot holders or braided bracelets. They were never as popular as friendship bracelets or lanyards, but still, this swimsuit is taking us back in time, and it will take you into an eye-searingly bright beach season.

2010 Bugatti 16.4 Veyron Grand Sport Soleil de Nuit news, pictures, specifications, and information
Bugatti honours the importance of the Middle East market with 2 unique cars and a special series of only 5 Veyrons for the Middle East market
Bugatti Automobiles S.A.S. finishes its Centenary celebrations wîth three tailor made cars, especially developed for its discerning clientele in the Middle East: the Veyron 'Sang d'Argent', the Grand Sport 'Soleil de Nuit' and the Veyron 'Nocturne', limited to five cars only.
'Sang d'Argent' and 'Soleil de Nuit' - two dreams for 1001 nights
The two-tone-scheme of the Centenary Villa d'Este cars were at the origin of the 'Sang d'Argent', a one-off Veyron version built exclusively for the Middle East. But the country coded coloured parts of the car have now been changed to a subtle silver metallic which discreetly flows into the lines of the polished aluminium parts – doors and front wings – thus enhancing the 'silver theme' of this car; yet another unique Bugatti creation celebrating the 100th anniversary of the brand. The 'Sang d'Argent' has the Grand Sport rims, they complete together wîth the air intakes on the roof the overall silver appearance.
Through the windows shines a differentiating Havanna interior wîth quilting pattern on seats and saddle and other very personalized items emphasizing the unique features of this very special Bugatti.
The 'Soleil de Nuit' – Sun of the Night – is another stunning example of how a modern interpretation of Bugatti's core values 'Art, Forme, Technique': A very unusual colour/material split characterizes the 'Soleil de Nuit', the second Middle East one-off model created for the Dubai Motor Show. The horizontal split in the lower part of the car – a synthesis of polished Aluminium, painted Black Blue Metallic enriched by mirror shine meshes – softens the lines of this Grand Sport and gives the body a new touch of sportiness. Blue Metallic in the upper body parts and also in the inner side of the ('Sang Noir') rims, the outer side of which are in diamond cut, underline the exquisite appearance of this dramatic lòòking car. A strong burnt orange interior crowns the attractiveness of this impressive 'Soleil de Nuit'.
The cars will be available for delivery in the first quarter of 2010. Their prices range from 1.65 Mio Euro for the five car series of the 'Nocturne' to 1.45 Mio Euro for the 'Sang d'Argent' and 1.55 Mio for the 'Soleil de Nuit', the Veyron and Grand Sport one-off models.
All these models are a visible proof of how creativeness and inspiration can be successfully driven to new limits. Bugatti's constant strive for new technology, more power wîth less weight, more innovative design aiming for improved speed, easier handling and more inspiring elegance has become legendary. Bugatti's sophisticated individualization and personalization program has opened new opportunities for the creative and discerning customers found in the Middle East. New materials have widened the range of personalized options and have led to combinations and applications of different varieties of high tech elements never seen before. Thus Bugatti chose the Dubai Motor Show to present these new combinations the first and only time to a broader public.
The 'Nocturne' – a special Veyron five car edition exclusively for the Middle East Market
The Veyron 'Nocturne' strikes wîth an extraordinary partition of surfaces never used so far, giving the car a new dimension of lateral length. Bugatti is experimenting wîth galvanized side windows continuing the line of the polished aluminium upper body parts to the rear of the car and contrast vividly wîth the uni black of the side- and door-panels and the roof. Added to that is the hood, also covered in polished aluminium which emphasizes this impression of elegant length. Special polished custom rims at the exterior and a futuristic interior dominated by a black nanocoated magnesium dashboard and a centre console in galvanized Platinum complete this unique combination of individualized modern design.
This mini series has been especially developed for the Middle East Market honouring its importance and its strong partners in the area - Al Habtoor Motors, ÚAE, Al Zayani Trading Co., Kuwait, Al Ghassan Motors, Saudi Arabia and Dana Motors, Quatar.
100 years later the Bugatti brand is well established again
Honouring the foundation of the company in 1909 Bugatti Automobiles S.A.S opened the anniversary wîth a one-off version of the Veyron, the 'Bleu Centenaire', at the Geneva Motor Show in March. At the Villa d'Este weekend at the end of April the company paid tribute to Bugatti's racing history – which was to a great extend responsible for the worldwide reputation of the brand – wîth four very special Grand Sports, accompanied by their respective Type 35 predecessors, all featuring the traditional racing colours representing France, Italy, England and Germany, namely blue, red, green and white. Bugatti was then one of the honoured marques at the Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance in California in August and highlighted the event wîth the presentation of the 'Sang Bleu', a one off Grand Sport in a breathtaking and unique carbon – aluminium combination. The '100th Anniversary Weekend' in Molsheim in September was the platform for a glimpse into the future which might look like the Bugatti 16 C Galibier concept – intended to be the most exclusive, elegant and powerful four door automobile in the world.
The presentation of these very special cars at the Dubai Motor Show is the final highlight, wîth which Bugatti ends its Centenary celebrations. We are honoured to complete our 100 Years at this prestigious Motor Show of a very important market for Bugatti.

Water-based jetpacking originally looked like an insane activity for the extremely rich and bored, but it has gradually gained in popularity. First, we saw the JetLev-Flyer, then the Flyboard, and now the X-Jetpack H3X Hydro. More than just a "me too" competitor in the water jetpack market, the H3X offers a few key evolutionary advantages for novices, families and daredevils alike. Read More
It's almost 2014 and time for a bit of aeronautical reflection as we look back at what records were broken, which new prizes were won, and what new technologies promise us a hypersonic, jet-packed future of aviation and innovation. So let's have a glance at Gizmag's pick of the top five aeronautical achievements of 2013.Read More
Who wouldn't like to fly around underwater? You can already sort of do so using devices such as the SeaBob, although you're still basically just "along for the ride." If SCP Marine Innovations' Underwater Jet Pack reaches production, however, it looks like it should provide an experience much closer to that of being Aquaman. Read More
The Martin Jetpack being developed by Martin Aircraft Company in New Zealand has undergone a major design overhaul. Reemerging as the P12 prototype, the ducted-fan personal VTOL is fully certified for manned test flights as a Class 1 microlight. The first commercial sales, now expected in mid-2014, will be for first responder applications, such as rescue, fire, and police missions. According to the company, sales to individuals will follow shortly after the initial models are vetted in field use.Read More
While most of us sit around grumbling and demanding to know, "where's my jetpack?", German Fritz Unger and a group of friends have decided to do something about it. On a shoestring budget they are building their own one-man, jet-propelled wing. Dubbed "Skyflash," it's meant to not only emulate the jet wing made famous by Jetman Yves Rossy, but to go one better by taking off from the ground instead of having to be dropped from an aircraft.Read More
The jetpack is arguably the most game-changing method of transport one could envision using technology available today. However, despite some progress, a jetpack-powered commute still seems a very long way in the future. Not to be daunted by this, Australian designer Marc Newson has turned his hand to producing a compelling jetpack design concept, dubbed the "Body Jet." Read More
The Bell rocket belt captured the world's imagination when it was featured in the 1965 James Bond movie Thunderball. Now, the folks at Jet Machines Extreme (JME) are designing a modern version not powered by rockets, but by a set of four miniature turbojets. The new Jet Vest is expected to offer free flying times nearly four minutes in duration. Having run short of development money, JME is exploring another modern innovation by reaching out to crowd-funding site Kickstarter for a boost. Read More
When we first covered the Martin Jetpack back in March, 2010, the creators were hoping to get it on the backs of buyers sometime in 2011. While 2011 has come and gone, the New Zealand-based Martin Aircraft Company is continuing test flights and is now seeking investors to help bring the manned Jetpack to market in mid 2013. Read More
The propagation of new thought in any global arena doesn't take long these days and with rapid development teams capable of building and testing prototypes in just a few months, entire markets can seemingly spring from nowhere. In 2009, JetLev showed its US$100,000 Jetlev (top left). Within months of production starting, French PWC legend Franky Zapata recognized that most of the hardware required for such a device was already contained in a PWC and created the Flyboard (top right) - a US$7500 accessory that attaches to any existing PWC with 150 plus horsepower. Now the people who brought you the Sea Breacher (bottom left) have completed a long-standing project to build the Jetovator (bottom right), a jet bike with a motorcycle seating position and controls. Three competitors makes a market - and all inside three short years.Read More
The "world's most expensive billboard" might bring about thoughts of neon lights lofted high above prime city real estate, but it probably wouldn't make you think of jetpacks. However, an interactive billboard with a soaring jetpack is exactly how a Middle Eastern skydiving outfit and American energy drink company found their way to what they call the world's priciest billboard.

|Accepted Version
Breast cancer is the leading cancer type diagnosed among women in Western countries. Despite great advances in cancer therapies, many of these patients develop non-curable metastases. The objective of cancer treatment in the metastatic setting is mainly to control symptoms and to prolong survival. The selection of the optimal chemotherapeutic regimen is affected by performance status, tumour biology, site and extent of the disease and the exposure to prior therapies. Recent developments in new kinds of cancer drugs have contributed not only to immense progress in clinical outcomes but also to dramatically increased treatment-related health costs. Cost-effectiveness analysis is a type of economic evaluation that compares costs and health outcomes of alternative intervention strategies in a systematic way. In this review, a systematic literature search was performed and the evidence on the cost effectiveness of conventional chemotherapy and targeted therapy for metastatic breast cancer was explored. Cost-effectiveness/-utility analysis of treatment regimens for metastatic breast cancer were identified using literature and reference searches (MEDLINE). Published reports on conventional and targeted cancer therapies were scrutinized and incremental cost-effectiveness ratios (ICERs) were abstracted. Furthermore, the quality of reporting, as well as methodological and modeling issues, were extensively discussed. From full-text article reviews, six cost-effectiveness analyses on conventional therapies and seven studies on targeted therapies were included. Eight analyses were conducted in European countries, three in the US and two in Canada. The economic models were primarily (69%) based on clinical trial data. Results from sensitivity analyses and study perspectives were reported by all studies. Discount rates were mentioned in five articles (39%). The methods of reporting costs and effects varied considerably, as did trial design across conventional chemotherapies, which made it difficult to compare those analyses. The pharmacoeconomic studies came to different conclusions. The actual clinical evidence does not suggest one conventional chemotherapy regimen as superior. Studies on cytotoxic agents showed mainly favourable cost-effectiveness ratios. Targeted therapies indicated both favourable and non-favourable ratios. Currently, trastuzumab is the only antibody-based targeted therapy that is established in the clinic for the metastatic setting.

Slouchy, sloppy tees can be either hit or miss and it's rare to find the former. This Complex Geometrics Junction T ($106), however, is where it's at. The asymmetrical hemline and bell sleeves are flattering on every figure and will look avant-garde when paired with just about any shape of bottoms. We keep coming up with different adorable ways to wear the top in our head and we haven't even bought it yet!

I'm learning about deadlocks in Java, and there's this sample code from Sun's official tutorial:
Alphonse and Gaston are friends, and great believers in courtesy. A strict rule of courtesy is that when you bow to a friend, you must remain bowed until your friend has a chance to return the bow. Unfortunately, this rule does not account for the possibility that two friends might bow to each other at the same time.
public class Deadlock {
static class Friend {
private final String name;
public Friend(String name) {
this.name = name;
public String getName() {
return this.name;
public synchronized void bow(Friend bower) {
System.out.format("%s: %s has bowed to me!%n",
this.name, bower.getName());
public synchronized void bowBack(Friend bower) {
System.out.format("%s: %s has bowed back to me!%n",
this.name, bower.getName());
public static void main(String[] args) {
final Friend alphonse = new Friend("Alphonse");
final Friend gaston = new Friend("Gaston");
new Thread(new Runnable() {
public void run() { alphonse.bow(gaston); }
new Thread(new Runnable() {
public void run() { gaston.bow(alphonse); }
Here's Sun's explanation:
When Deadlock runs, it's extremely likely that both threads will block when they attempt to invoke bowBack. Neither block will ever end, because each thread is waiting for the other to exit bow.
I don't quite seem to follow. When alphonse.bow(gaston) runs, the bow method is locked. So now it'll first print "Gaston has bowed to me!". Then it'll go on and call bowBack, and locks bowBack as well. How can this cause a deadlock? Am I misunderstanding what happens when a synchronized method is called?
If someone can give me a easy explanation, thanks.

|M. G. Vassanji
M.G. Vassanji has earned well-deserved critical acclaim for
The Book of Secrets, 1994 and The In-between Life of Vikram
Lall, 2003 and stands in the first ranks of Canadian fiction writers.
He is a two-time Giller Prize winner (1994 and 2003) and the 1990
Commonwealth Writers Prize for The Gunny Sack and in 2004 was awarded the
Trillium prize for his most recent novel. Vassanji, born in Kenya, Nairobi
and raised in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania, draws on his experience to explore
questions of identity and experience in the Arab-Indian culture, taking on
the larger thematic concerns of the intersections between past and
present, the assimilation of traditional and contemporary values and the
importance of love and safety, conditions that arise out of a sense of
community. Indeed, one of the preoccupations in his fiction is the
evolution of community from the perspective of the 'ordinary' life caught
in the vortex of overwhelming historical events that engulf it. Vassanji
has a distinguished international reputation and has established the
Toronto South Asian Review to support South Asian Canadian writers and has
a doctorate in nuclear physics. Of The In-Between World of Vikram
Lall, Janette Turner Hospital wrote: "His characters are complex,
compelling, revelatory and unforgettable.It is a wounded but quietly
stubborn humanity, this refusal to cast single blame on the multifarious
injustice that puts Vassanji in Tolstoy's company. Of his own work,
Vassanji has said, "I write at night but think about it all the time."

|Shani Mootoo
Shani Mootoo is a writer, a visual artist and a video-filmmaker
who develops and explores her particular approach to artistic expression
in a multi-disciplinary approach to media. Her collection of short stories
Out on Main Street is followed by her first novel Cereus Blooms at Night
(Press Gang, 1997). Born of East Indian ancestry in Ireland and raised in
Trinidad, Mootoo moved to Canada at age nineteen. Her experience as a
multiple immigrant (India, Ireland, England, Trinidad and Canada) emerge,
shape and colour her writing. Mootoo traces themes of ethnicity, gender
and sexual identities through her work, taking as her main focus the
relationship between authenticity and identity. If Out on Main Street
explores questions of authenticity and identity through the first-person
narration of the main character of the title story of the collection, an
Indo-Trinidadian butch lesbian, Cereus Blooms at Night offers a reflective
examination of 'socially deviant' identities through hybridity and the
sexually divergent. Shani Mootoo currently teaches at the University of
Alberta in Edmonton.

Chester Brown is an acclaimed Toronto cartoonist and author of
what one critic described as "the finest graphic novels you could hope to
find". His Louis Riel: A Comic-Strip Biography (2003), inspired in part by
Maggie Siggins. Riel: A Life of Revolution, delivers a cartoon narrative
that is entertaining and extensively researched. The story of one of
Canada's controversial figures takes on a contemporary context, rendered
in the form of a graphic narrative. Brown is also known as a pioneer in
the world of underground comics with bizarre and surreal titles. Series
like Yummy Fur and Underwater and I Never Liked You contain a strong
autobiographical component and project a trenchant political and cultural
critique, inviting comparisons with the serialized novel associated with
Charles Dickens. In 2004 Chester Brown received three prestigious Harvey
Awards for his work: Best Writer (Louis Riel), Best Cartoonist (Louis
Riel) and Best Graphic Album of previously published

I have been a fan of Hard Cider since I began drinking during college; unfortunately for lovers of this fine alcoholic beverage, bars don't generally carry a good variety of ciders. This means that we are left to fend for ourselves by scouring the grocery store to find a good six-pack.
Apples for eating and apples for cider can be as different as table grapes and wine grapes. The better ciders require higher proportions of tannins and bittersweet flavors. Taking a bite of a cider apple can be a harsh, face-scrunching shock with little resemblance to the sweet, crisp flavors of any variety that would taste good in a pie.
The first 'good' cider I ever tried was Strongbow. It came as a recommendation from a friend who spent time in London. Now, the problem I had in Cincinnati, was finding Strongbow. In 1999 there was only one place in my city where I knew to find brews outside of the 'Big 3' and that was across the river in Newport, KY at the Party Source – they carried Strongbow in the tall cans, and came in a 4-pack.
Since then I have tried many other Cider brands, some I have liked others I would not drink again with a gun to my head, but I always had Strongbow for a good taste and reliable quality.
Strongbow: the number one global cider brand is making a big change with the launch of Strongbow Gold Apple Hard Cider and Strongbow Honey & Apple Hard Cider; I had the opportunity to give both new flavors a try.
This was my first experience with cider from a bottle, in the past my cider drinking came from a can or from the draft when fortunate enough to be at a bar offering such a thing. The Honey & Apple was first, and announced itself with a hearty sweet flavor. There was no after-taste to speak of, and the flavor was good, but for me a bit too sweet to be able to drink more than one. My wife who always accompanies me while trying new libations has an affinity for sweeter drinks, and was a big fan of the Honey & Apple.
The Gold Apple was next on the menu, and this one was exactly what I was hoping it would be; faintly sweet, and just the right amount of tart, with a fetching apple scent. This flavor is perfect for mixing, and experimenting with; below are three recipes you should try to take your Strongbow to that next level.
We liked both of the new offerings from Strongbow, the Honey & Apple and Gold Apple are different enough that there feels like a genuine choice when deciding which flavor you want to drink.
Both Strongbow Gold Apple and Strongbow Honey & Apple are gluten free, 5% ABV, and contain 172 and 195 calories per 11.2 oz. bottle, respectively.
