Cubs Drop Angels at Fitch Park
Logan Watkins had three hits and scored twice, leading the EXST Cubs to an 8-3 victory over the EXST Angels in a pre-planned ten-inning Extended Spring Training game at Fitch Park Field #3 this morning in hot & sunny Mesa, AZ.
Now 19, Watkins was the Cubs 21st round pick in the 2008 draft out of Goddard HS (Goddard, KS), where he starred on both the football team (played QB) and baseball team (played SS), and the Cubs were able to convince him to give up his baseball scholarship to Wichita State only because they offered him "3rd round money" to turn pro.
While the left-handed hitting and right-handed throwing Watkins has played SS, 2B, LF, and CF since signing with the Cubs, he appears to be the protypical second-baseman, with a strong and accurate arm, but with an almost sidearm arm slot, perfect for slinging the ball to 1st base while straddling 2nd base as the middle-man in a DP.
The extra inning was added to the game to allow Cubs and Angels pitchers to get extra work, since weekly EXST "Camp Day" intrasquad games are no longer being scheduled.
Also, it turns out Iowa Cubs RHP Justin Berg (on the DL with a right shoulder strain since mid-April) did not leave town yesterday. He is still at EXST, rehabbing his shoulder, and in fact he pitched another inning today (24 pitches), as a follow-up to his one-inning (16 pitches) of work at Papago Park in Phoenix on Thursday. Berg got ground balls with his hard-sinker again today (per usual), but his command was off, resulting in him allowing two runs on two hits and a walk in 2/3 of an inning (and the inning was terminated with only two outs when Berg reached his proscribed pitch count).
While the Cubs were battling the Angels on Field #3, RHPs Carlos Rojas and Julio Castillo faced-off in a two-inning simulated game on Field #2, facing Jose Valdez, Sean Williams, Jesus Morelli, and Jericho Jones,
Castillo (AKA "Animal") is from the back jungles of the Dominican Republic (near the border with Haiti), and he is a legend among Cubs minor leaguers as the guy who captured a wild desert rat at the Padres minor league facility in Peoria, Arizona, a couple of years ago, and then kept the rodent as a pet for the summer while he pitched for the AZL Cubs.
Presently on the Restricted List while awaiting final disposition of criminal charges filed against him in Ohio as the result of throwing a baseball at a fan during a brawl in Dayton last August while a member of the Peoria Chiefs. Castillo is one of the hardest throwers in the Cubs system (with a fastball that routinely clocks at 95+), so the Cubs are not necessarily in a hurry to discharge Animal from the organization. He has the type of power stuff (fastball & slider) that could make him a potential big-time set-up man or closer someday (that is, as long as he isn't otherwise occupied serving a lengthy term--and throwing the 9th inning--at the Ohio State Penitentiary).
The only other item of note is that C-3B-1B-DH John Contreras is missing from camp, perhaps because he has moved up to Peoria, which has only one healthy catcher available on its roster (that one being Michael Brenly). Contreras is already 23, and he was converted to catcher this season (he still plays 3B and 1B, too, however) after leading the AZL in home runs in 2008. So he would seem to be the type of player (probably too old for Boise, but needs an opportunity to play at a higher level) who would get the call as a mid-season injury replacement in Peoria or Daytona. (Daytona catcher Robinson Chirinos has a broken hand, and so Luis Flores has been moved up from Peoria to Daytona).
Here is today's abridged box score (Cubs players only)...
1. Hak-Ju Lee, DH #1: 1-5 (1B, L-4, 4-3, F-7 DP, K - 1 R, 1 SB)
2. Matt Cerda, C-DH: 2-4 (1B, 4-3, 2B, E-3 - 1 R)
3. Jae-Hoon Ha, CF: 0-4 (6-3, E-6, 6-3, K)
4. Chris Weimer, 1B: 0-4 (L-8, P-1, L-6, K)
5. Sean Hoorelbeke, LF: 2-3 (6-3, HBP, 1B, 1B - 2 R)
6. Jose Guevara, DH-C: 0-2 (5-3, K, BB, BB - 1 R)
7. Logan Watkins, SS: 3-4 (2B, 1B, 1B, 4-3 - 2 R)
8. Kevin Soto, RF: 2-3 (6-3, 1B, HBP, 1B - 1 R, 2 RBI, 1 SB)
9. Robert Bautista, 3B: 0-4 (1-3, K, 4-3, K - 1 RBI)
10. Jose Made, 2B: 0-3 (1-3, E-4, BB, 1-3)
1. Justin Berg - 0.2 IP, 2 H, 2 R (2 ER), 1 BB, 0 K, 1 WP, 2/0 GO/FO, 24 pitches (16 strikes)
2. Miguel Sierra - 3.0 IP, 4 H,1 R (1 ER), 0 BB, 1 K, 2 WP, 5/3 GO/FO
3. Toby Matchulat - 2.0 IP, 0 H, 0 R, 2 BB, 2 K, 1/2 GO/FO
4. Su-Min Jung - 3.0 IP, 3 H, 0 R, 1 BB, 2 K, 3/3 GO/FO
5. Manolin DeLeon - 1.0 IP, 1 H, 0 R, 0 BB, 1 K, 2/0 GO/FO
1. Matt Cerda - 0-2 CS, 1 PB
2. Jose Guevara - 1-2 CS
Re: Cubs Drop Giants at Fitch Park
The Orioles' are playing a ridiculous amount of ex-Cubs tonight. Look at the lineup: Rich Hill pitching, Felix Pie in center, Cesar Izturis at short, and, of course, Brian Roberts at second.
Re: Cubs Drop Giants at Fitch Park
Pie is on his last legs. He'll probably get released, the Cubs can pick him up again, and he can become the Carlos Beltran we all knew he could be.
Re: Cubs Drop Giants at Fitch Park
Rich Hill update:
Single to Choo, Bloomquist 463 DP, Butler K (17 pitches). Wicked curve for the K. Looked like the good Rich Hill again.
Re: Cubs Drop Giants at Fitch Park
Rich Hill's night is over, leaving the game with a 3-2 lead in the bottom of the 6th. Runners on 1st and 2nd.
line: 5.2 IP, 7H, 2R/ER, 2BB, 6K. No sign of the yips. Nice curve, just as I remember but he was hittable.
Dear Small Sample Size: I'd say it was a nice first outing.
Re: Cubs Drop Giants at Fitch Park
I'm happy for Rich. I hope he does well. I don't like to see anyone go out of the game due to Steve Blass disease.
Re: Cubs Drop Giants at Fitch Park
One of those walks was intentional. Maybe we can get Felix Pie back as the PTBN for Hill.
Gregg will still close...
Re: Gregg will still close...
I would hope not, before this pitiful meltdown Gregg had only given up 3 ER in 10.1 innings going back to April 22nd and after giving up 1 ER on May 1st had gone 6 games without giving up anything.
I say he's still got alot of rope until he loses the closer job.
Re: Gregg will still close...
He's got an okay splitter but other than that he's not exactly mesmerizing. If he doesn't work out Lou will work Guzman into the set up role and move Marmol in as closer, assuming Guzman keeps pitching well of course.
Re: Cubs Drop Giants at Fitch Park
Briefly a Cub, Mariner Garrett Olson has given up two 2-run HR's (Bay, Varitek) in his first two innings. Boston ahead 4-0 in Seattle.
Re: Cubs Drop Giants at Fitch Park
AZ, your reports lately are getting lame. NO attendance figures, and I think this is the second time in a row.
I had a third grade teacher, named Mrs. Patton, who slapped your hands with a ruler when you fucked up like that.
I hope Rob G. is taking note of these deficiencies.
Re: Cubs Drop Giants at Fitch Park
Dude, and have a Shiner Bock for me too!
ps...I noticed the missing attendance numbers as well, just sayin. Maybe Carlos Marmol should be writing up these reports from Fitch Park.
Re: Cubs Drop Giants at Fitch Park
Hey, AZ, Hak-Ju Lee?
Isn't he the shortstop I queried about a few days ago? He got a few ABs today?
Re: Cubs Drop Giants at Fitch Park
Edinson Volquez leaves Reds/Pads game with back spasms.
Re: Cubs Drop Giants at Fitch Park
Begin Volquez-Prior over usage comparisons.
Re: Cubs Drop Angels at Fitch Park
...and David Weathers walked in the tying run in the 8th
now 5-5 into bottom 12.
Re: Cubs Drop Angels at Fitch Park
Padres won this game in 16 innings. Nick Hundley walk off. Volquez left with back problems as well as Votto leaving with 'dizzyness'.
Tomorrow its Arroyo vs Peavy...Reds could be looking at being swept after sweeping the Dbacks.
Re: Cubs Drop Angels at Fitch Park
Dusty uses Owings for 6 innings (81 pitches) on 3 days rest (he pitched tuesday), never goes to Cordero or tomorrow's starter Arroyo (just call someone up for a spot start tomorrow, Nick Massett has to go on the DL anyway).
Re: Cubs Drop Angels at Fitch Park
That's always been his thing. He did that to Harang last year in the 18 inning marathon on two days rest. Not trying to be a Dusty hater because it's the tragically hip thing to do, but his pitching decisions in LONG extra inning games have always been puzzling, to say the least.
Re: Cubs Drop Angels at Fitch Park
No need to scoreboard watch on the Reds. I've been assured by expert sources that they're no good.
Minors Update
Vitters went 3/4 with his 4th HR yesterday and is hitting .342/.376/.496 now, sadly his strike zone judgement is typical of Cubs prospects (3 BB's to 17 K's). Ryan Butcher, who seems to be Peoria's closer has a 0.59 ERA and 22 K's in 15.1 innings. He's also had 8 BB's.
Starlin Castro (SS) got 4 hits for Daytona to raise his BA to .292, which is pretty nice for that league.
TN got rained out.
Fox went 3/4 with a double to get his BA up to a cool .429 as the I Cubs got pummelled by the Salt Lake Prohibitionists.
According to Street&Smiths Sports Business Journal -
"Chicago Cubs buyer Tom Ricketts is close to lining up three banks to arrange the $450 million financing necessary to complete his acquisition of the team, financial sources said, positioning him to clear a substantial hurdle in the long-running sale of the club"
Good to see our bank bailout money helping multi-millionaires buy baseball teams.
Re: CUBS PURCHASE UPDATE
This thing is looking like a train wreck. I'll go out on a limb and say in 5 years Tom Ricketts will either A. not be owner or B. be in the process of selling the team.
Re: Cubs Drop Angels at Fitch Park
Via Rotoworld, the Cards will trot out Carpenter on Wednesday against the Cubs.
Derrek's warming up..
okay, it's Brian Moehler but he's crushed two of them today...
Re: Cubs Drop Angels at Fitch Park
Z's rehab start: 3.2 IP 4 Runs 5 Hits 3 BB and 67 pitches
but he seems to be healthy.
Re: Cubs Drop Angels at Fitch Park
Who cares about his pitching line, did he hit a home run?
Re: Cubs Drop Angels at Fitch Park
Re: Cubs Drop Angels at Fitch Park
I wonder if Daytona is going to have Z stick around for tomorrows game to maybe PH.
What personal ritual did Rich Hill pick up from Ryan Dempster?
Re: CUBS TRIVIA QUESTION
Hot shit all over his balls pregame?
Oh, Ryan Dempster, not Roger Clemens.
Flamingo sprints in the outfield?
Re: Cubs Drop Angels at Fitch Park
Another day, another HR for Vitters.
Re: Cubs Drop Angels at Fitch Park
To go with 2 doubles. I imagine the rival managers will start petitioning the Midwest League Commisioner to force-promote Vitters shortly.
Re: Cubs Drop Angels at Fitch Park
Az. Phil, how close to playing in the field is Hak-Ju Lee? Also, is Dae Eun Rhee making progress in his Rehab? Thanks.
Re: Cubs Drop Angels at Fitch Park
And, also, isn't Lee the given name rather than the family name? Which would mean the "last name" is Hak-Ju? So if AZ Phil was Asian he'd be Phil AZ? Am I wrong about this?
Re: Cubs Drop Angels at Fitch Park
WSCR 670 reporting that the Tribune is reporting that "the Chicago Cubs sale is nearing completion".
Re: Cubs Drop Angels at Fitch Park
...For what it's worth.
Of course, it's been nearing completion for over a year now.
Re: Cubs Drop Angels at Fitch Park
In other news, the blades of grass in my lawn are slowly getting longer.
Re: Cubs Drop Angels at Fitch Park
Sports Business Journal reports today that Tom Ricketts has lined up three banks -- JPMorgan Chase, Citigroup and Bank of America -- to arrange the $450 million in financing needed to close the Ricketts family's $900 million acquisition of the Cubs.
The magazine said the deal could be done by this week
Re: Cubs Drop Angels at Fitch Park
This is a bit confusing. Shouldn't one of the criteria to be a buyer of the Cubs been, you know, having the money or financing available? Would Cuban be looking to sell preferred stock and getting loans from poorly run financial institutions?
Re: Cubs Drop Angels at Fitch Park
Hope he got fixed-rate. I heard those variable-rate things are trash.
Re: Here's the exciting news
EXCEPT that Paul Sullivan misquotes the article. IT DOES NOT SAY he's lined up three banks. If you want to know what the article actually says, see post #22 above.
I should explain that the Sports Business Journal article I quoted yesterday is the same one Sullivan thinks is new today, Monday. Yesterday it required a subscription to read it, today it's free.
Instead of apologizing
Telander writes this today
Theriot -- not a huge guy at 5-11, 180 pounds -- has seen 10 of his last 14 hits go for extra bases (four doubles, a triple and five home runs) and is second on the Cubs with 66 total bases (behind Alfonso Soriano).
Two days ago, all that sudden power got me to thinking: Theriot had one home run last season, just seven in his career, and he has five already this year?
You hate to do it, but what else can a skeptic think when numbers abruptly burgeon in this era of A-Fraud and Manny and major-league head-in-the-sand-ism?
Performance-enhancing drugs.
Now I know it's hard for a crackhead like Telander to remember all the way back to the 2006 season, but Ryan Theriot put up even more impressive numbers that year with the same number of at bats.
Re: Instead of apologizing
Clearly this jerk is just drumming up some press. Small sample size, adjusted swing. Oh, and people can get better at things they do a lot. Who knew?
I thought his initial point, that the steroid era has made our first reaction suspicion, was a good one. But he should have acknowledged that was only an unfounded and easily refuted first reaction, particularly in the Theriot case.
Doesn't Albert Pujols actually make a better foundation for his argument? I mean, there is a guy against whom we have absolutely no evidence, yet his performance (and I suppose his somewhat amorphous bald head) has been reason enough to suspect him of using PEDs. There's your article, A-hole.

chapman showing up and available tomorrow night.
i'm sure he'll be a bit hit. hope he doesn't choke. dude has a rifle for an arm. he'll add a bit of punch to the bullpen.
the 'crosstown classic' sure has lost it's magic with interleague. the excitement level is barely noticable...maybe it's a bit more hype in the city, itself.
Well he didn't leave a mark so its not that bad.
Fuck that.
He choked her.
Her brother tackled him to separate him.
He cooled off by shooting his gun in the garage.
I don't have to like him on the team I follow.
And you are others are free to not give a shit about his personal misgivings if you so choose as well.
Sure, no marks and some inconsistencies in the witness's statements. But firing your gun into garage wall immediately after an argument and punching out your car window is still threatening and out of control behavior. There was certainly enough for MLB to think it warranted a 30-game suspension.
I'd prefer they be flexible with the closing situation depending on matchups. You're not really adding a lefty reliever if you use him strictly as a closer.
Stockpiling young talent isn't only for trading for someone like Chapman though. Even with an elite closer winning the World Series is basically a crap shoot so the key is to get to the playoffs as much as possible and not just mortgage everything on one year. Once you get there an elite bullpen certainly helps but the playoffs can be won by one hitter or starting pitcher getting hot (Murphy, Molina, Baumgardner) and a closer might not be able to stop that.
I'm also not crazy about press convictions. As the police report noted, there were no marks on the lady in question. There's a TMZ link (of course) to her police pictures, as well.
I think the only way this trade goes real bad is if Cubbery intervenes and Chapman is suddenly bad for some reason.
I am right there with you closing in on 60.
I don't care that much about "mortgaging" one player who is not only blocked by two guys, but is not ready to hit the majors for at least a couple years.
There is no reason why this team, this year, can't have a real shot at something NONE of us have experienced.
Further, I don't feel that even if they fall short that they have ruined their farm system.
I have made my opinion clear here, with others, Warren was shit on the Cubs save one spot start.
Trading for Warren, Warren sucking, getting Warren back for Chapman plus 3 prospects, sounds like Revenge of The Yankees on the former Boston executive. Old rivalries never die.
I pray to the heavens above Chapman doesn't suck for some reason, or he'll be booed out of town faster than a Todd Hundley revival meeting.
I'm kind of nostalgic for the Schwarber-for-Miller rumors.
This offseason, after some ridiculous playoff run and Chapman saving every game from here until the end of the postseason striking out 27/9innings, I welcome anyone to quote this thread and call me a dummy: I hate this trade, and my hate is 2 parts Chapman makes this team less likeable and 1 part that's a ridiculous overpay for 30 regular season innings and, at tops, 10 postseason innings. Already hoping they don't extend him.
btw...Thanks AZ Phil. I'm really enjoying your take on this trade.
I'm a bit disappointed on the Warren experience. Essentially they gave Castro away for crickets (OK, well they signed Zobrist with the Castro salary dump). Otherwise one might look at it as Chapman for Castro and our #1 minors prospect (Torres) + McKinney/Crawford. Seems pricey for a 2 month rental. We will see if this price tag is that steep in a relative way based on the remaining deadline deals for relievers.
Yep. One of the great things about this team (in addition to being really good at baseball) was the "likable" factor. Feels a bit different now. Who knows...maybe Chapman will be the king of the dance parties.

New South African Beers Flavored with Boer History

December 30, 2013 11:46 AM
South Africa is a nation of beer drinkers. It constitutes 34 percent of Africa's formal beer market, according to government statistics from 2012. On average, South Africans consume almost 60 liters of beer per person every year – far more than the 14.6 liters per person in the rest of Africa, or the global average of 22 liters.
But up until relatively recently, the only beers widely available to South Africans were commercial lagers and pilsners brewed in factories.
Now, however, the country is in the throes of a craft beer revolution, with small, independent breweries opening everywhere. South Africa's beer landscape appears to be changing irreversibly.
Craft beer is brewed slowly, according to traditional methods and using natural ingredients, including hops, barley, malt, yeast and mineral water. Commercial beer brewers often use chemicals to rush the brewing process, but true artisanal beer makers shun them. Mass-produced beer also generally tastes bland compared with craft brew, which is made in a variety of styles and flavors.
The Spitfire and a stout called Black Widow
Inside The Cockpit Brewery in Cullinan, a town more famous for the diamonds mined here than its beer, Andre de Beer tapped a pint of dark orange ale with a rich, creamy head.
"My signature beer is a Mustang IPA, an India Pale Ale in the American style, very fruity from all the hops; and then the Black Widow Stout, a nice rich, full-bodied stout with some beautiful roasted [coffee] flavors," he said, alongside a poster reading, '24 hours in a day, 24 beers in a case. Coincidence? I think not.'

De Beer said the "soul" of his beer is the hops he uses. Hops are the conical flowers of the
humulus lupulus
plant, grown on vines. They add bitterness and flavor to beer.
Like many of South Africa's specialty beer brewers, de Beer imports his aromatic hops from the Yakima Valley in Washington State in the United States.
"In my IPA, to add flowery, citrus and spicy tones, I use three different American hops – the Cascade, the Amarillo and the Citra. I also import British and German hops for the English and German beer styles that I brew."

De Beer explained that the hops so far available in South Africa are not suited to making intensely flavorful craft beers. "There are very good local hops available but they're being cultivated for lager brewing – adding bitterness, but not much more, to a beer," he said.
De Beer uses malted barley imported from Germany to create his tasty beers. "This is character malt, darker malt, adding much more texture and flavor to my beer than the local malt would."
The title of his brewhouse reflects his love of aviation, as do the names of his beers, most named after wartime fighter planes.
"There, we start off with the Hell's Bells which is a Muncher Helles, a nice, easy drinking light lager. Then I've got the Fokker Weiss, which is a German-style hefeweizen [wheat beer]. I've got the Spitfire, an English, ordinary bitter – a nice session beer, low in alcohol but full in flavor; the Tiger Moth, which is a dark Belgian-style strong ale – nice fruity flavors, high in alcohol.…"
De Beer is also respected in brewing circles for his range of limited edition beers.
"They're usually more extreme beers; very limited release; only available in bottles; aged usually for a year or older. There I've got beers like an English barley wine and a Belgian dark, strong ale at about 15, 16 percent alcohol…."
His ideas for making new styles of beers seem inexhaustible.
"The first I plan to release here will be the Black Forest Stout," said de Beer. "It starts life as an 11 percent alcohol stout, then it's re-fermented with fresh cherries from the Free State [province] and pure cocoa is soaked in the beer for a few days; beautiful cherry and chocolate flavors in the strong stout."
Water comes from the Magaliesberg springs
Nuschka Botha, of the Black Horse Brewery in the Magaliesberg Mountains north of Johannesburg, said two ingredients ensure that her beer is "really special" - barley imported from Belgium, a country known for its excellent beer, and the water she uses.
"We get our water from a natural spring in the Magalies Mountains. A lot of other brewers change their water PH and add calcium and other stuff before they brew, but not us," she stated. "We use our water as is. It doesn't go through any filtration systems, and it is as pure as pure can get. That I also feel changes quite a bit to the flavor of the beer…. So I think that makes our beer very pure."
Botha believes in using ingredients indigenous to particular styles of beer.
"Like, for instance, our Irish red ale - we try to use the hops unique to its name, so we try and use European hops for that. When I brew a dunkel, which is a German dark lager, I'll use German hops."
Unlike many other craft beer brewers who are currently making extremely bitter, highly experimental brews, Botha plays it safer.
"South Africans have such a specific taste bud range as far as beers are concerned that we want to make something that's already kind of out there. We don't want to go way out and try something crazy; we want to make very drinkable beers."
Unashamedly, Botha pays homage to South African Breweries [SAB], often much maligned by other craft brewers for making what they consider to be largely flavorless beers.
"SAB has done a very good job of getting people used to lager, so we followed them in a sense and made a signature lager, our Golden Lager, which is the typical lager. That sells very well – easy drinking, light…."
Reaching back to mediaeval brews
A network of stony paths leads to Dirk van Tonder's Irish Ale House on his farm in Northwest Province. He believes that simplicity is the secret to good craft beer.
"I try to make beer as close as possible to the way in which beer was originally made all those centuries ago in Europe, like in mediaeval times," he told VOA.
To illustrate his point, van Tonder told how he recently acquired some South African-grown barley.
"I steeped it and I malted it on the floor, like in the age-old tradition. I dry-kilned it in the sun, and then I roasted it in my…wood-fired pizza oven. To this day the people are still asking me, 'When are we getting that beer with that lovely, nutty taste? When are you making that again?' I said, 'Well, when I feel like making malt again....'"
Van Tonder's passion is to use South African inputs in his beer.
"Every single element of what I called my Brown Ale was South African. So, we don't have to look overseas all the time for wonderful ingredients. It does, however, take more time and effort to make 100 percent homegrown beer, because at the moment imports are more widely available," he said.
Van Tonder said he's very proud of his South African Brown Ale.
"It was my first plough-to-pint beer made from 100 percent South African ingredients. To have that barley in your hands, have it harvested, malt it by hand, kiln it, roast it, brew it, keg it; serve it – that's the complete journey. It is so rewarding. It's a lot of work, but it's rewarding."
He also makes a spicy Capsicum Ale. "It's nothing but my normal pale ale. But in the last five minutes of the boil I add a healthy, and I mean healthy, amount of chopped chili to it."
But van Tonder's personal favorite remains his Trailer Trash Blonde.
"When people ask me, 'What style is this beer?' I say, 'It's trailer-chic.' It isn't very subtle at all. I throw a lot of Cascade hops into the mix for this beer – and I mean a lot. This blonde is a really bitter woman!" he said, laughing. "But if she's on your side, you'll love her."
Hopheads prefer extremely bitter beers
Like van Tonder, increasing numbers of beer drinkers in South Africa are calling themselves "hopheads" – people who enjoy extremely bitter, aromatic beers.
One of them is Lucy Corne, beer writer and author of
African Brew
, a book about the country's burgeoning artisanal beer scene.
"I really like very hoppy beers. The Devil's Peak IPA is one of my favorite beers in South Africa. It's a wonderful version of an American IPA. And everybody always says, 'Oh yes, I could have one or two but it's not a session beer.' I disagree. I could drink several of them!" she insisted, laughing.
"Hopheads" like Corne and van Tonder stand in contrast to Steve Gilroy, another of the country's leading microbrewers.
"For me a beer should be in perfect balance. It should neither be aggressively bitter or cloyingly sweet. Yeah, it would be an interesting beer but you wouldn't want another one and beer's all about drinkability; it's how the lord designed it," he said, smiling.
But for Gilroy the real "golden rule" in making high quality craft beer is that it should never be over-carbonated.
"Have a gulp of a fizzy commercial beer, and almost immediately you burp. It bloats you so you change your drinking repertoire to whiskey or wine. Bad beer turns people into alcoholics!" he exclaimed, with only the merest hint of sarcasm.
Gilroy continued, "So, you ask me what defines a good beer: It's the correct amount of bitterness and sweetness -- perfect balance, and enough carbonation to dance on your tongue but cause your tummy no distress."
But he acknowledged there's a time and place for aggressively bitter beer styles, such as the IPA.
"I'm not saying they're crap beers; I'm saying the average person will have one or two, and that's that. I like to drink a lot and my customers like to drink a lot, so I make drinkable session beers, beers that you can drink one after the other."
Gilroy must be onto something, because a few years ago Diner's Club evaluated almost 500 beers around the world and rated Gilroy's premium dark ale, called the Serious, with its high alcohol content of 5.5%, claret coloring and lingering flavor of caramelized sugar, the third best out of them all.
Searching for new tastes in the veldt
Corne, who visited microbreweries across South Africa for her book, said there are several "hidden gems" in the country's rapidly expanding specialty beer market.
"Lex Mitchell at the Bridge Street Brewery [in Port Elizabeth] has a wonderful chocolate stout, which really sticks in my head," she recalled. "Then there's another guy [Chris Heaton] in the Eastern Cape [Province] at the Emerald Vale Brewery. He had this really rudimentary, basically a home-brewing, system. You look at this and it's all insulated with silver tape and you're thinking, 'God, this is not going to be good…' And it was such a good, clean beer!"
Corne added, "He shipped some of his beer to Cape Town for my group of beer snob friends to taste and everyone was wowed by this beer."
Like the writer, van Tonder is convinced that brewers in South Africa "aren't even close to reaching their potential" in terms of creating new beer styles and flavors.
"I don't believe craft beer brewers here have even touched on what we are capable of," he said. "In South Africa we have yet to discover the treasure trove of herbs in the African veld that we haven't even started [making beer] with. There are plenty of fruits and herbs and flora out there that could really set our beer apart from all others available in the world."
Then, van Tonder said, people around the globe could "taste and share" in South Africa's craft beer boom.

In a previous post, I used the Groove Pizza to visualize some classic hip-hop beats. But the kids are all about trap beats right now, which work differently from the funk-based boom-bap of my era.
Category Archives: Technology
Composing in the classroom
The hippest music teachers help their students create original music. But what exactly does that mean? What even is composition? In this post, I take a look at two innovators in music education and try to arrive at an answer.
Matt McLean is the founder of the amazing Young Composers and Improvisers Workshop. He teaches his students composition using a combination of Noteflight, an online notation editor, and the MusEDLab's own aQWERTYon, a web app that turns your regular computer keyboard into an intuitive musical interface.
Rohan lays beats
The Ed Sullivan Fellows program is an initiative by the NYU MusEDLab connecting up-and-coming hip-hop musicians to mentors, studio time, and creative and technical guidance. Our session this past Saturday got off to an intense start, talking about the role of young musicians of color in a world of the police brutality and Black Lives Matter. The Fellows are looking to Kendrick Lamar and Chance The Rapper to speak social and emotional truths through music. It's a brave and difficult job they've taken on.
Eventually, we moved from heavy conversation into working on the Fellows' projects, which this week involved branding and image. I was at kind of a loose end in this context, so I set up the MusEDLab's Push controller and started playing around with it. Rohan, one of the Fellows, immediately gravitated to it, and understandably so.
More remixes of my Disquiet Junto remix
The same Disquiet Junto project that spawned this wildly recursive remix also involved a few more people remixing my remix. Here's a family tree of the three first generation source tracks, the seven second generation remixes of those tracks, and the three third generation remixes of the second generation remixes.
You can hear the three third-generation metaremixes below.
Recursive remixes
Here's a strange and interesting thing that happened to me. The assignment for Disquiet Junto project 233 was to remix three tracks. The assignment for Junto project 234 was to metaremix one of the remixes from project 233. One of the people whose remix I metaremixed was listening to my track and accidentally had it playing in two different browser tabs simultaneously. He liked how it sounded, so he did a metametaremix with two copies of my metaremix offset by a few beats. It came out amazing!
Ilan meets the Fugees
My youngest private music production student is a kid named Ilan. He makes moody trip-hop and deep house using Ableton Live. For our session today, Ilan came in with a downtempo, jazzy hip-hop instrumental. I helped him refine and polish it, and then we talked about his ideas for what kind of vocal might work on top. He wanted an emcee to flow over it, so I gave him my folder of hip-hop acapellas I've collected. The first one he tried was "Fu-Gee-La [Refugee Camp Remix]" by the Fugees.
I had it all warped out already, so all he had to do was drag and drop it into his session and press play. It sounded great, so he ran with it. Here's what he ended up with:
Seeing classic beats with the Groove Pizza
We created the Groove Pizza to make it easier to both see and hear rhythms. The next step is to create learning experiences around it. In this post, I'll use the Pizza to explain the structure of some quintessential funk and hip-hop beats. You can click each one in the Groove Pizza, where you can customize or alter it as you see fit. I've also included Noteflight transcriptions of the beats.
The Backbeat Cross
This simple pattern is the basis of just about all rock and roll: kicks on beats one and three (north and south), and snares on beats two and four (east and west.) It's boring, but it's a solid foundation that you can build more musical-sounding grooves on top of.
The Big Beat
This Billy Squier classic is Number nine on WhoSampled's list of Top Ten Most Sampled Breakbeats. There are only two embellishments to the backbeat cross: the snare drum hit to the east is anticipated by a kick a sixteenth note (one slice) earlier, and the kick drum to the south is anticipated by a kick an eighth note (two slices) earlier. It isn't much, but together with some light swing, it's enough to make for a compelling rhythm. The groove is interestingly close to being symmetrical on the right side of the circle, and there's an antisymmetry with the kick-free left side. That balance between symmetry and asymmetry is what makes for satisfying music. Continue reading
Beatmaking fundamentals
I'm currently working with the Ed Sullivan Fellows program, an initiative of the NYU MusEDLab where we mentor up and coming rappers and producers. Many of them are working with beats they got from YouTube or SoundCloud. That's fine for working out ideas, but to get to the next level, the Fellows need to be making their own beats. Partially this is for intellectual property reasons, and partially it's because the quality of mp3s you get from YouTube is not so good. Here's a collection of resources and ideas I collected for them, and that you might find useful too.
The evolution of the Groove Pizza
The Groove Pizza is a playful tool for creating grooves using math concepts like shapes, angles, and patterns. Here's a beat I made just now. Try it yourself!
Theory for Producers: the White Keys
I'm pleased to announce the second installment of Theory For Producers, jointly produced by Soundfly and the MusEDLab. The first part discussed the scales you can play on the black keys of the piano. This one talks about three of the scales you get from the white keys. The next segment will deal with four additional white-key scales. Go try it!
If you're a music educator or theory nerd, and would like to read more about the motivation behind the course design, read on. Continue reading

Garth M. Rosell (PhD, University of Minnesota) is professor of church history at Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary, where he has taught since 1978, and former director of the Ockenga Institute. His books include The Memoirs of Charles G. Finney (coedited with R. A. G. Dupuis) and Commending the Faith: The Preaching of D. L. Moody.
Surprising Work of God: Harold John Ockenga, Billy Graham, and the Rebirth of Evangelicalismby Garth M. Rosell
View All Available Formats & Editions
The Surprising Work of God tells the story of how America's mid-twentieth century spiritual awakening became a worldwide Christian movement. This seminal study brings a unique perspective to the history, personalities, and institutions of that period and offers an intimate look at evangelicalism through the window of the life, ministry, and writings of Harold John Ockenga and his long friendship with Billy Graham. Ockenga was pastor of the historic Park Street Congregational Church in Boston and cofounder of Fuller Theological Seminary, Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary, the National Association of Evangelicals, and Christianity Today. As such, he was a central figure in the birth and development of American neo-evangelicalism. This lively, engaging story will be of value to anyone with an interest in the American church of the last century.
"In this thoroughly researched book, Garth Rosell has put flesh on the dry bones of history. His deep immersion in the rich records left by Harold John Ockenga brings to life the critical developments that forged the modern evangelical movement. The result is a most valuable book."--Mark Noll, Francis A. McAnaney Professor of History, University of Notre Dame
"The story of post-World War II evangelicalism, and of Harold Ockenga's role in its reconstruction, is here told with an insider's understanding, a historian's eye for detail, and diligence in the use of original sources. Rosell has ploughed fresh ground and has given us ways of looking at all of these events that are fresh, authentic, and helpful."--David F. Wells, Andrew Mutch Distinguished Professor of Historical and Systematic Theology, Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary
"This is insiders' history at its best. Not only is Garth Rosell a truly first-rate historian but he has also lived through many of the events he recounts. His front-row seat within the theater of post-war evangelicalism combined with careful work in little-known manuscript materials has yielded an accurate, vivid account of the evangelical movement's twentieth-century revival. This book is real treasure--must reading for all who care about American religion."--Douglas A. Sweeney, associate professor of church history and the history of Christian thought, Trinity Evangelical Divinity School

PARIS, Jan 5 (SW) – French defending champions Olympique Lyonnais have put their first setback of the season behind them, by bouncing back in style away to table bottom Strasbourg.
The four-time French champions crashed to a 1-3 home defeat (their first defeat of the season) against title rivals Lille just before the winter break, but they went back to winning ways in style last night, after thrashing table bottom Strasbourg 4-0 on Alsatian soil.
A hat trick from Sylvain Wiltord (6', 57', 74') and a netting effort from Jeremie Berthod (41') ensured Gerard Houllier all three points on the night, with the table leaders looking more certain than ever to retain their title this term.
Guy Lacombe's PSG debut could have been a worse one, after his side convincingly cruised to a 3-1 win over a struggling Sochaux side, while Marseille failed to clinch the three points against Lens, despite Charles Itandje's first-half sending-off (1-1).
Nantes suffered their fourth successive winless league game, after being defeated by an opportunist Rennes side 0-2 at la Beaujoire, while a double from Le Mans' Tulio De Melo added to Metz' woes, the Grenats remaining deep in the relegation zone with 14 units.
Nancy were held by Bordeaux to a goalless draw, and les Verts of St Etienne could not edge the winner against Troyes, their tempered 1-1 stalemate being far from the best shows delivered this year at Geoffroy Guichard, despite the promising debut of on-loan striker Helder Postiga.
Finally, Lille and Nice earned maximum points against Ajaccio (2-0) and Toulouse (2-1) respectively.
Tonight, Monaco travel to Auxerre, both sides looking to snatch three points and climb up the table to runners-up spot.

Anna Marie Fisher, 75, of Rehoboth Beach, passed away peacefully Monday, Feb. 25, 2013, surrounded by her loving family and friends. She was born in Philadelphia, Pa., Nov. 9, 1937, daughter of the late Charles Hoffner and Marie (Short) Prell.
Anna spent her early years in Williamstown, N.J. She was a 1955 graduate of Glasboro High School and furthered her education at Temple University in Philadelphia. She raised her children in Clayton, N.J. and retired to Rehoboth Beach after a long career with Wawa Food Markets.
Anna enjoyed world travel and cruises, having visited the Caribbean, Europe, and much of the U.S. However, she was happiest when surrounded by her grandchildren, enjoying the beach, and an occasional manicure and pedicure.
In addition to her parents, Anna was preceded in death by her husbands, Richard Meaney (1998) and Eugene Fisher (2003); her son, Alfred Meaney (2012); and her granddaughter, Amanda Stubbs (2004). She is survived by her life partner, William Brown; six children: Richard Meaney II of Egg Harbor Township, N.J., Janet Gambino and her husband Joseph of Clayton, David Meaney of Egg Harbor Township, Beatrice Preston and her husband Jay of Hamilton, N.J., Marie Fisher of San Francisco, Calif., and Dawn Stubbs and her husband John of Rehoboth Beach; 11 grandchildren: Kathleen Meaney, Tomara Blackburn and her fiancé Ryan Evans, Craig Blackburn, Jessica Preston, Louise Gambino, Adam Preston, Richard Meaney III, Johnny Stubbs, Jay Preston Jr., and Abigail Stubbs; two great-grandchildren: Jeanne Meaney and Ryan Evans Jr.; five siblings: Edward Hoffner, Richard Hoffner and his wife Peggy, Barbara Beacroft and her husband Skinner, William Prell, and Mary Macklin and her husband Mark; and her two loving cats: Mr. Boots and Lollipop.
A celebration of Anna's Life will be held at 11 a.m., Saturday, March 2, at Parsell Funeral Homes & Crematorium, Atkins-Lodge Chapel, 16961 Kings Hwy., Lewes, where friends may visit beginning at 10 a.m. Interment will be private.
In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions may be made to the charity of your choice in Anna's name.

"Show me a waterfall!" is the recreational battlecry of many a visitor to Oahu. After all, tropical paradises are synonymous with rainbows and waterfalls. Oahu does boast plenty of rain-fed, spurting beauties, but unlike some of the other Hawaiian islands, none of them offer drive-up viewing. A thorough deluge will leave the Ko'olau range awash in a spectacle of gushing...
Maunawili Falls is great easy and fun. Number one CHECK WEATHER FIRST. Even though Maunawili falls is relatively small and mellow, if it's raining up in the Koolau Mountains it can become very dangerous. People park on the street near the gate to Falls.

Hiking in to the falls took us about 1hr 45 minutes to get to; trail can be confusing sometimes, hopefully other people hiking back (took us 1hr 30 min to hike back) can show you the way. Roots, mud, rocks and more mud. Prepare to get dirty, all the more to make it to the falls to wash off. Make...
An incredibly muddy slog to get to a fairly unremarkable waterfall. The trail is not well marked. Stick to the trail with large paving stones when you see them. A walking stick is recommended. Bring water.
This hike is very muddy, be prepared to get dirty. The day we went it was extremely muddy and strenuous. Bring shoes and clothes you don't mind getting dirty and NO flip flops. Remember when you get back you'll be muddy so plan to bring towels and a change of shoes for the ride home.
Maunawili Falls is beautiful. The path can be a bit muddy and slick but worth it. Lots of cook places to stop and take pictures along the way. Our four teens had a competition of sorts creating funny scenes using the beautiful plants and trees for back drops.Consider taking an old pair of shoes you can throw away when you...
The trail was very muddy when we went. This is not a trail for anyone who has trouble walking. Wear clothes and shoes that can get dirty. Take a walking stick. The views are amazing!
Great hike to a waterfall. Has some distance to it but it's well worth it at the end. Parking can be an issue because the trail begins on a residential neighborhood. We actually park on the side of the road between some houses and than walk down to the beginning on the trail. The trail is muddy as you go...
At first I was not happy about the mud but after getting to the falls it was worth it. I had a good time and I even jumped off the 40ft side of the waterfall. Hiking back went fast as I didn't care so much about the mud. Good time!
My 18 year old daughter and I love to hike. This hike was challenging enough for us with a reward of a swim in a waterfall at the end. If there's been rain, expect to get your shoes muddy! We loved the lushness of the trail. Plenty of shade. Some challenging stairs. A walk through the creek. Not many people...

100% Balloons
Ideas. My brain is full of them. Like a sack filled with bouncing helium balloons. My skull is stretched tight. Focusing on what's around me is the difficult part when I'm bouncing off the ceiling. Any advise to this ENFP? Any ideas for this lady already on an idea overload? Or maybe you want to plan a beach day with me? Or lets swap games for 3 yr olds! Ha! I think I'm a lose cause….… More 100% Balloons

Here's Video Of Your New Favorite Rapper, B.o.B., Doing Your New Favorite Song, "Nothin' On You," At S.O.B.'s Last Night
Now that you've fully absorbed yesterday's primer on Atlanta rapper and long-gestating mainstream sensation B.o.B., enjoy this footage of our hero at S.O.B.'s, leading a live band through his big hit, which we love unconditionally.* More footage is available here. Album's out in a coupla weeks. That tune with Paramore's Hayley Williams is a bit of a drag, but otherwise, it's all happening.
* Royal "we," I think.

Friends and family of the teenager killed in PRISON BREAK star LANE GARRISON's pre-Christmas car crash in 2006 have handed a petition to a judge asking that the actor is handed the maximum sentence for vehicular manslaughter. Vahagn Setian was a passenger in Garrison's Land Rover when the actor lost control of the vehicle and crashed after leaving a party. The 17-year-old was later pronounced dead in hospital. Garrison pleaded guilty to charges of vehicular manslaughter without gross negligence, driving under the influence and providing alcohol to a minor in August (07), and is due to be sentenced on Wednesday (31Oct07). On Tuesday (30Oct07), Setian's friends and family presented a petition featuring 3,600 signatures to a judge in Beverly Hills, California, demanding Garrison serve the maximum sentence of six years and eight months for his crimes. Setian's friend, a student called Alex, read a statement outside the court: "To do anything else sends a terrible message to young people, the community and others who drink and drive."
