Separate names with a comma.
Discussion in 'Beer News' started by BorisKarloff, Jun 6, 2013.
so all it took was removing a star, huh?
Stupid as hell, IMO.
Any irony behind Magic Hat producing #9 in cans about the same time this lawsuit started to become public? Coincidence? I think not...
Here's the relevant portion of the article, for those interested:
So much money and time wasted trying to slander each other... and that's it?? Wonder how many customers they've both turned off of their products with this whole mess.
"that Magic Hat has no Vermont presence" what the heck is that supposed to mean?!
Human beings are neat, aren't they?
I used to like Roxy Rolles but I haven't had a Magic Hat beer in years and after seeing this shit, Magic Hat beer will never again cross my lips. In fact, I would have a Keystone Light, Bud Light, Coors Light or whatever Light before anything Magic Hat makes. It was frivolous to think that these two logos could be confused by anybody but the bozos at Magic Hat who initiated the lawsuit. So there.
I took it to mean that West Sixth at one point claimed something similar publicly.
Should be "that West Sixth" has no Vermont presence. In fact, according to the Beer Distribution Chart, West Sixth is only distributed in KY.
I think it's an insinuation that Magic Hat is so big now that they don't even brew it in Vermont.
For what it's worth, I liked the design that they produced that had a clearly drawn compass rose on it. Would have preferred to see that design as the one that stuck.
West Sixth's logo was too similar to Magic Hat's. I suspect whoever they hired to design a logo looked at other brewers' logos and adopted elements of Magic Hat's logo. Obviously infringement never occurred to whoever designed the logo.
West Sixth then made their problems worse by thinking craft drinkers would swell up around them (like the Strange Brewing case) and proceeded to attack Magic Hat. Really dumb.
West Sixth made the right decision to change the logo.
That was a lot of Magic Hat's argument why the logo infringed on the #9 logo. That's what had to go.
For those like me that need pictures when reading.
When did this lawsuit start? I've been seeing #9 in cans since 2009 or so.....
I'm not talking about the generic one that was originally part of their logo. I'm talking about one that was mocked up as an alternative design. It was a clearly defined compass rose. Two pieces with a border around the compass portion, which made it clear as day what it was supposed to be. And I always thought that it was honestly irrelevant since the wingding in the #9 logo was not a part of their trademark filing.
Awwwww shit. Better change my avatar before Magic Hat sues my ass.
you really think they didnt get support? you must not have visited their facebook or twitter or google + or anything associated with Magic Hat
The proof is in the pudding, as gramps used to say.
At one point, W6 implied that Magic Hat was a Costa Rican brewery, so many of the W6 fans started posting comments, reviews, posts on MH's Facebook page calling MH a foreign (non-US) brewery. If you base W6 fans on the ones commenting on MH's Facebook page, many probably still believe that MH's beer is made in some foreign far away land.
Good for West Sixth for realizing they needed to make those changes.
Of course, they are the same painless changes Magic Hat requested months ago (no star & logo must have "West Sixth" verbiage attached to the 6 logo), West Sixth agreed to them, then West Sixth changed their minds and started attacking Magic Hat.
As opposed to, what, InBev? Seems like xenophobia shouldn't have a place in the world of craft beer community.
Right. Because they made a big deal about them being a Costa Rican conglomerate.
Thank god this happened. My tiny consumer brain can now rest easy with the knowledge I will never confuse these labels again. I've been having recurring nightmares of picking up a west sixth star included can and finding out it was actually magic hat.
Magic Hat contacted West 6th in September 2012 about the trademark and it was escalated to a lawsuit in May 2013. And you are correct that No. 9 has been in cans for several years already.
The real irony is that West 6th released their amber ale in cans with a similar color scheme to #9 in February 2013 in the midst of the copyright negotiations. Then they wondered why Magic Hat escalated to a lawsuit.
Not only did craft drinkers "swell up around them" but Magic Hat expanded the lawsuit by claiming West Sixth was slandering them based on all the Facebook hate.
Should I open my west sixth ipa or will it be worth something?
It's not worth anything now from what I've read. Doubt it will go anywhere but down from here.
And yes I knew you were joking, it's possible I am as well.
There was an initial swell against MH but after more infomation came out, there was a backlash against West Sixth for their tactics on multiple forums that I saw.
Gross. That says a lot more about you than it does Magic Hat.
Not just Facebook. There were BAs (can you even call them that?) from KY with their nasty comments and xenophobia posting on these forums.
Sometimes, beer brings out the worst in all of us and I'm no exception with the comment I made about KY being 10 years behind in the times.
I do apologize though.
And big bad corporate Magic Hat did even run the poor small brewer out of business...just like they didn't run little Georgetown Brewing out of business before...amazing!
Considering all the talk about "inverted nines" and other bullshit, apparently they didnt care about the font on the numeral at all.
They are Costa Rican in the same way than Budweiser is Belgian and Miller is British and Coors is Canadian.
The original document spent a lot of time talking about inverted nines.
In other words, they are not Costa Rican at all.
There was still a common law trademark part on that, but I agree. Its weird that that is the change required. I also liked the more clear compass design, I didnt realize it was a compass until this all got started.
In other words, they are Costa Rican.
Apparently MH is okay with the similar color scheme. Unless there is more than just the star removal, but I doubt it.

So right after the second link tag that links our CSS Transition file, we'll add in the script tag, set the type to text/javascript, and source will set to the _scripts folder, and within that, modernizr 2.5.3.min.js. Let's close out the script tag, and we'll go to our next line.
Next I'm going to link to a series of utilities, put together by David DeSandro whose Tutorial on 3D cubes was the basis for this implementation. Again, the script, type text/javascript, and the source. We will go again to my _scripts folder, and this time it's utils.js. One more to go, and the final one is the rotate.js file, also scripted by David DeSandro that handles the actual CSS class removal, and addition, when the thumbnail is clicked.
So we start it with the script, type, and again it's text/javascript, and we'll point to the same path which is our . ./_scripts/rotate-box.js. That's all of the JavaScript, I'm going to save the page. Let's turn to the remaining CSS rules. All that's left to do is to add the rules that govern the show classes.
Like show-front, show-top, and so forth. These classes are added to the parent container. In our case, that's the div with the ID of cube, whenever the corresponding thumbnail is clicked. Each class will contain the Transform properties to move the cube side to the front. Let's begin with the front face. So we'll enter in #cube.show-front. Make sure there's no space between cube and the .show-front.
As when we set up the front face for the cube, there's no rotation involved just that translation or movement along the Z axis, whereas previously, the value for the translateZ property was +136 pixels, because we're moving it back into position, we'll use -136 pixels. So let's start with our webkit-transform and the function translateZ of -136 pixels.
Okay, we can copy that line, paste it in three times and change the vendor prefixes as needed. Next, let's turn to the back. Here, and with the rest of the cube sides, we'll perform a rotation as well as a translation, and we'll keep the same values, but make them the inverse of what they were when we set up the cube. So if the values are positive, we'll make them negative, and if they're negative, positive.
And one more thing, if we rotated the cube first and then translate it, we need to do the inverse of that. Then we will need to translate it first so that it's in the proper position to rotate. All right, let's get started with, #cube.show-back. And our first transform property, -webkit-transform. Now let's enter in our translateZ property with a value of -136 pixels, and our other function, rotateX, and we're rotating this 180 degrees, put a semicolon, and this is ready to be copied and pasted, and then slightly modified.
Okay, let's move on. Let's follow the same pattern for the right and left side of the cube. I'll put in my selector for the show-right, starting with webkit-transform and the function translateZ, again, set to -136 pixels, and rotateY -90 degrees. We'll select, copy, and paste as we've done once or twice before.
And now I'm going to copy show-right, and let's paste it in and change it to show-left. The translateZ value we can keep at -136 pixels, but let's change our rotateY from -90 to +90. Finally, let's do the same thing, reversing the signs as it were for the top and bottom of our photo cube. You may face it a little bit faster and maybe a tad less monotonous.
Let's copy the show-right and show-left CSS rules, and then we'll paste them down below and change their names to show-top and show-bottom. The other thing we'll need to change in each of these rules is rotateY to rotateX. Let's save the page, and let's see if we're ready to rock or not. I'll refresh the page in my browser, and let's click through the thumbnails. Sweet! We got a real 3D cube spinning around interactively.
Obviously, this technique is somewhat limited, you can only show six thumbnails and images at a time, but you have to admit, it's a cool addition to get your designer's Toolbox.

De La Hoya Hopes To Continue Working With Mayweather
By Luis Sandoval
Even while Golden Boy has a triple header event scheduled at the StubHub Center in Carson, CA this Saturday night, the question that looms over Oscar De La Hoya is what is going on with his company and what's going to happen now with the departure of his former CEO Richard Schaefer.
Schaefer and De La Hoya's relationship became strained when De La Hoya made it his goal to make peace with rival promoter Bob Arum of Top Rank and looked to start working together again. This did not sit well with Schaefer and eventually he stepped down from his position at Golden Boy.
Despite what transpired, De La Hoya still assures he will begin working with all promoters- including Top Rank -going forward in order to make the fights the fans want.
"I'm going to work with anybody and everybody as long as we're making the best fights happen. We're going to continue working together giving the fight fans what they deserve. If it's going to take for me to work with every promoter out there- I mean I can envision Golden Boy versus the rest of the promoters in one night for instance. Those are the type of fights and events I want to put on together. So we can show the fans that Golden Boy and myself that we want to do it for the fans. That's it, that's the bottom line," De La Hoya would tell BoxingScene.
The choice to end the long standing cold war with Top Rank has come at a high price as De La Hoya not only lost his CEO in the process, but it appears he also may have lost the business of the sports number one fighter in Floyd Mayweather.
Golden Boy has promoted all of Mayweather's fights since 2007 but Mayweather's relationship with Golden Boy was mainly through Schaefer whom he developed a strong working bond with. Oscar was asked for his reaction to Mayweather initially stating he would no longer want to do business with his company.
"Obviously when you hear something like that it's obviously a little disappointing but I believe the next day Leonard Ellerbe retracted his statement and they are obviously open to working with Golden Boy. So look, we're very happy and we've done a great job and this is vice versa. We've done a great job for Floyd, he's done a great job for boxing with Floyd Mayweather Promotions and us with Golden Boy Promotions. We've promoted his last 7 to 8 fights. We know how to promote. Golden Boy is a machine. It's a well oiled machine and like I said, we're moving forward, we're doing the big events and we have new innovative ideas that I can't wait to implement," stated De La Hoya.
Things are obviously still being sorted out at Golden Boy and the void Schaefer left at the company will need to be filled quickly but for now, De La Hoya is concentrated on putting on fights and working with all promoters.

[SKAR-buh-roo] is a town in Cumberland County, settled in 1630 and incorporated on July 14, 1658 from the towns of Black Point and Blue Point, and nearby islands.
According to the town's web site:
The settlement of Scarborough was one of the earliest made on the New England coast. John Jocelyn, writer, botanist and English nobleman, came to Scarborough in 1663 to visit his brother Henry Jocelyn, who had settled on Prout's Neck. His visit lasted eight years. His writings offer the best history of that time. He wrote that the province of Maine had plenty of magistrates, husbandmen and planters, but very few skilled craftsmen.
Though it was abandoned in the Indian raids of 1690, it held a town meeting on May 8, 1718 signaling a return of settlers to the area.
Scarborough ceded land in 1841 to Saco and 1864 to Gorham before completing its modern boundaries.
Benen Foster was a Revolutionary War veteran who was born in Scarborough in 1763. His deposition applied for State bounty lands to be given to these veterans summarizes his service in the war.
It is the birthplace of Maine's first governor and advocate for statehood: William King. The town was almost the retirement home for another governor, Enoch Lincoln, who died before he could retire to the farm he had purchased here.
Winslow Homer lived and painted in Prout's Neck, a somewhat isolated peninsula that now is home to a bird sanctuary donated by the artist's brother, Charles.
Homer's work is often featured at the Portland Museum of Art.
Famed architect, John Calvin Stevens, designed cottages in the Neck for Charles and Winslow.
The town's fine beaches and the Scarborough Downs race track and off-track betting facility are attractions for many.
Scarborough Marsh, operated by the Maine Audubon Society, offers guided canoe trips, canoe rentals, bird walks and a museum and visitor center at Maine's largest salt marsh.
The Scarborough Marsh Wildlife Management Area is managed by the Maine Department of Inland Fisheries and Wildlife in a federal-state partnership program.
Nearby Scarborough River provides recreational boating opportunities and open space.
A suburb of Portland, the rapidly growing community now ranks as tenth most populous in Maine according to the 2000 U.S. Census, up from 13th place in 1990, having grown almost 36 percent in ten years. One of the manifestation of the growth in diversity as well as numbers is the establishment, in a former Universalist Church, of the first Hindu temple in Maine in 2012.
Alger Hall, below right, is a community building that also houses the Masons Lodge.

Portland Railroad Company Substation
[US 1 West Scarborough] The former Portland Railroad Company Substation is a modest brick building built in 1911. It was built to provide electric power to the street trolley line connecting Portland and Saco. It is the only existing building associated with the Portland Company's Saco Division, and one of only a handful of relatively unaltered trolley-related buildings in the state.
The Railroad Company's initial horse car service was confined to the cities of Portland and Deering (later annexed by Portland). In 1891, the company opened its first line of electric trolleys. At the same time it was expanding lines into what is now South Portland and Cape Elizabeth, while acquiring other systems in adjacent communities. In 1899, the company proposed to construct a line from its South Portland segment through Scarborough to a junction with the Biddeford and Saco Railroad. After some delay, in June 1902 the Portland to Saco link had been completed and put into service.
Eight closed trolley cars and ten open cars were acquired for the new division. The eighteen cars were housed in a new car barn built at Dunstan Corner in Scarborough. This wooden frame building and an adjoining battery house stood immediately to the south of the existing brick structure. As the power demands grew on the branch, the battery storage facility was replaced in 1911 by the substation. This building continued to function in its original capacity until 1932, at which time the trolley line was abandoned. Later it became home to the Scarborough Historical Museum. (See Seashore Trolley Museum in Kennebunkport.)*


text: Japanese airline ANA retires last 747 in Tupelo By Dennis Seid | April 17, 2014 No Comments | Likes 0 | Tags All Nippon Airways (ANA) retired its last Boeing 747 on Thursday, with the pilots making a flyover at the Tupelo Regional Airport. The 747 was officially retired from service on March 31 in Tokyo, carrying several hundred passengers. In recent days, it made its way to Anchorage, Alaska and finally to Tupelo. It landed around noon Thursday, then made its way to Universal Asset Management, which has retired 10 of ANA's planes over the years. Three ANA 747s sit on UAM's space at the airport, including a Pokemon 747 that landed last fall, joining ANA's other retired Pokemon plane that was disassembled in 2012. You can read more about the final 747 retirement ceremony in Friday's Daily Journal.

Area Info
South Carolina is known for its wide range of scenic attractions, depth of history, and its traditional Southern charm. It is a small state, ranking only 40th in size; yet it packs a lot within its 30,000 square miles, and offers a lot for retirees as well.
The seacoast is renowned and popular, stretching from charming Beaufort at one corner of the state to vibrant Myrtle Beach at the other. From the coast, the land rises slowly through a region of moss-covered oaks and small towns, to the higher piedmont and the capital of Columbia. The hilly Upstate region and the bustling cities of Greenville and Spartanburg continue on to the Blue Ridge Mountains along the border with neighboring North Carolina. Hilton Head Island has become a famous resort town, receiving attention for frequent visits from former President Bill Clinton and family.
Spend a day or two in South Carolina, and you may quickly understand the state slogan "smiling faces and beautiful places." There are more reasons to retire in South Carolina than just the beautiful scenery and friendly residents. The state also boasts low property taxes and zero state estate tax. An increasing number of retirees have also been moving to the state for its warm summers, mild winters, and slower pace of life.

I haven't tried to make this yet, but would like to for my granddaughter. However, no matter how many times I read it, I cannot see where I would be forming the button loop. Can you clarify? Is it just a bunch of loops in one of the stitches of the final cap row?

Landing Dwyane Wade could set up the Bulls for a big future signing
Dwyane Wade signing with the Chicago Bulls is so crazy, so anti "younger and more athletic", so far from where the Bulls need to go in terms of building a competitive team for the long term...that it just might work. Yeah, that's right. You heard me. It just. Might. Work. Yes, it goes against everything the front office was preaching this offseason, especially after trading Derrick Rose to the New York Knic ...Read more ›

PPG Industries has completed the separation and merger of its commodity chemicals business with a Georgia Gulf subsidiary, giving rise to a new entity called Axiall Corporation.
PPG announced in December that it would proceed with the split-off the $5 billion business after a favorable ruling from the U.S. Internal Revenue Service. At that point, the new company formed from the split-off was going to be called Splitco.
Axiall Corporation manufactures two integrated chemical product lines, chlorovinyls and aromatics, as well as building and home improvement products under the names Royal Building Products and Exterior Portfolio.
PPG's former commodity chemicals business is now a wholly owned subsidiary of Georgia Gulf.
The closing of the merger followed the expiration of the exchange offer at 8 a.m. ET Jan. 28 and the satisfaction of other conditions, according to PPG.
Global Chemicals Deal
Axiall is a manufacturer of two integrated chemical product lines, chlorovinyls and aromatics, according to the company. The company also manufacturers a line of custom and other vinyl-based building and home improvement products under the names Royal Building Products and Exterior Portfolio.
When it announced the plan in July, PPG said the $2.1 billion deal would create "a leading global chemicals and building products company with a broad portfolio of downstream products and approximately $5 billion in revenues."
PPG said the merged company would have about 6,400 employees at more than 40 facilities, primarily in North America.
The board of directors for Axialli Corporation consists of 11 members, and the company will be led by Georgia Gulf president and CEO Paul Carrico.
PPG members on the new board of directors include Robert Ripp, who is also a director of PPG Industries; Michael McGarry, executive vice president of PPG Industries; and Dr. Victoria F. Haynes, a PPG director.
Paul D. Carrico (left) is the president and CEO of Axiall. Michael McGarry is an executive vice president of PPG and serves on Axiall's board. Dr. Victoria F. Haynes, a PPG director, will also serve on the new board.
In the merger, each share of Eagle Spinco common stock was automatically converted into the right to receive one share of Georgia Gulf common stock.
As part of the exchange offer, PPG accepted 10,825,227 share of PPG common stock in exchange for 35,249,104 shares of Eagle Spinco common stock.
PPG also received $900 million in cash in connection with separating its commodity chemicals business and its merger with Georgia Gulf.
PPG will report the results of its commodity chemicals business for January 2013 and a net gain from the separation when it reports its results for the quarter ending March 31, the company said.
About the Companies
Founded in 1883, PPG has its global headquarters in Pittsburgh, PA, and operates in more than 60 countries worldwide.
Georgia Gulf, headquartered in Atlanta, GA, is a North American manufacturer of two chemical lines, chlorovinyls and aromatics, and manufactures vinyl-based building and home improvement products.
The company's building and home improvement products include window and door profiles, mouldings, siding, pipe and pipe fittings, and deck products and are marketed under the Royal Building Products and Exterior Portfolio brands.

My friend and I stayed at this wonderful apartment for 10 days and we absolutely enjoyed it. Everything was perfect and we had everything we could ever need. The description corresponds completely with the reality. It was very nice and central with everything just around the corner. There were only a couple of things that could have been better. For example, because the apartment is very central, there are also a lot if people and therefore noise, but nothing we couldn't handle. And as for the kitchen: one chair was broken and the kitchen was small (but ideal for a short holiday.) But if you can live with a small kitchen and a little noise, this is the perfect place to stay. If I ever go back to Rome I would stay at this apartment.
VERY lovely little apartment in Rome, located very central in a charming copplestone neighborhood with everything, travelers need at hand - nice supermarkets and local special stores, such as the friendly butcher down the street, who did not speak English, but understood us through hand gestures! The street lies parallel to Piazza Navona and not far from the largest local market ( cannot remember the name).. I would recommend the apartment for couples or single travelers, who love feeling the rustic and central feel of historic cities!
Just excellent: everything in description corresponds to reality, nice location, easy hosting, friendly and helpful hostess. Highly recommend for anyone avoiding useless luxury!
Het appartement is in het midden van Rome en ligt in een gezellige typische Italiaanse steeg met eet gelegenheden en kleine terrasjes. Je zit dus midden jn het Romeinse leven van nu en vlakbij alle bezienswaardigheden van toen. Alles is op loopafstand: lopen in Rome is zeker aan te bevelen je krijgt zoveel meer mee van de stad en geweldig!!!
De host is erg vriendelijke en zeeeeeer behulpzaam. We hadden flinke vertraging (2 dagen) met het vliegtuig (er was brand op het vliegveld) en ze heeft me fantastisch geholpen met het taxi vervoer. Ze takte als het waren tussen mij en de taxi-chauffeur. En gelukkig konden we twee aanvullende nachten in het appartement (het verblijf was dus tot 9 mei...;-)

Showing good volume and price back up again, the other days sell-off was a gift, hopefully we get a few more of those. good day all.
24 hours. That's how much trading time it took to gain back the 20% we lost in that momentary selloff three days ago. While gold is up about 1/10 of that. Along with the volume, I'd say that indicates strong consolidation here despite the 2 month runup.z.
Right on Z. I added a small amount the other day I could not pass up that deal.
Weird trading today, lots of blocks going through at 1.81... anyone who was lucky enough to buy the other day just made a pretty quick buck...
Already we have traded half of the 3m daily volume (more than 123k shares traded) in only 30 minutes of trading!
I searched for news and couldn't find any...if you see any release pointing to the price rise please post a link. 2MM shares in 40 minutes, will be interesting to see how the day progresses
ok thanks
almost 6.5m in Can. now. Thanks Joey. AwesomeMy other main stock Orko up .30 to 2.43 just in case anyone has dry powder for a silver stock.I'm all in for both so no worries for me.Lissa
