Background: No consistent relationship between the severity of symptoms of knee osteoarthritis (OA) and radiographic change has been demonstrated.
Objectives: To determine the relationship between symptoms of knee OA and tibial cartilage volume, whether pain predicts loss of cartilage in knee OA, and whether change in cartilage volume over time relates to change in symptoms over the same period.
Method: 132 subjects with symptomatic, early (mild to moderate) knee OA were studied. At baseline and 2 years later, participants had MRI scans of their knee and completed questionnaires quantifying symptoms of knee OA (knee-specific WOMAC: pain, stiffness, function) and general physical and mental health (SF-36). Tibial cartilage volume was determined from the MRI images.
Results: Complete data were available for 117 (89%) subjects. A weak association was found between tibial cartilage volume and symptoms at baseline. The severity of the symptoms of knee OA at baseline did not predict subsequent tibial cartilage loss. However, weak associations were seen between worsening of symptoms of OA and increased cartilage loss: pain (rs = 0.28, p = 0.002), stiffness (rs = 0.17, p = 0.07), and deterioration in function (rs = 0.21, p = 0.02).
Conclusion: Tibial cartilage volume is weakly associated with symptoms in knee OA. There is a weak association between loss of tibial cartilage and worsening of symptoms. This suggests that although cartilage is not a major determinant of symptoms in knee OA, it does relate to symptoms.

Free Orlistat
Free orlistat Money contributions to a Puggle rescue are always a great way to help volunteers with expenses and make a difference in a Puggle's world. Free orlistat So many rescued dogs are in need of Vet care, free orlistat and all require the basic necessities of life – food, free orlistat water and shelter – all of which costs money.
Free orlistat Although you may wish you could do more for a rescue aside from donating money, free orlistat understand that providing such funds are greatly appreciated by the rescue. Free orlistat Every donation made to a good animal rescue goes toward caring for the dogs, free orlistat and helping them find new loving homes.
Free orlistat However, free orlistat did you know that you might be able to double the funds you donate to the Puggle rescue? Many employers will actually match charitable donations made by their employees. Free orlistat This doesn't only mean matching money you may have donated, free orlistat but also if you sponsor or adopt a dog.
Free orlistat This particular type of unique charitable donation matching is known as a Corporate Matching Gift program. Free orlistat Most companies who participate in this program will match dollar for dollar when it comes to the charitable contribution made by their employee.
Free orlistat Of course, free orlistat not every company will offer the corporate matching gift program, free orlistat so you will need to find out if your's does. Free orlistat To learn if the business you work for is involved in the program, free orlistat contact your employer's Personal Department or Human Resources to find out more. Free orlistat If you discover that the company you work for does offer this charity program, free orlistat simply ask for the proper form so you can fill it out and have you donation matched. Free orlistat If they don't offer the program, free orlistat there's no harm in asking them if they would be interested in doing so.
Free orlistat Aside from corporate matching gifts (or if the business you work for doesn't provide this option), free orlistat there is nothing wrong with asking your fellow co-workers if they would be interested in making a small donation to the Puggle Rescue with you. Free orlistat Remember, free orlistat every little bit helps, free orlistat and there is no harm in asking. Free orlistat Just make sure you don't hassle those who aren't interested. Free orlistat A donation is a gift from the heart, free orlistat it shouldn't be forced.

Latimore Has No Interest in Trilogy Bout With Powell
By Ryan Burton
According to a recent story on Boxingtalk.com, the IBF is ordering a junior middleweight elimination bout between Sechew Powell and Deandre Latimore. The winner would become the mandatory challenger to champion Cornelius "K9" Bundrage. K9 defeated Powell by unanimous decision in June.
Latimore and Powell have already fought twice with each fighter picking up a victory. Latimore knocked out Powell in 7 rounds in their first meeting in 2008. Powell evened the score when he won a majority decision last year.
The article stated that both fighters have already agreed to the eliminator and that it would most likely take place this year. Latimore advised BoxingScene that the eliminator was news to him and that he wasn't interested in the bout.
"This is the first that I heard that. I haven't agreed to this elimination bout. Why would I fight Powell again? I don't know what my promoters are thinking. First they said I was fighting Vanes Martirosyan. Then they said I was fighting Erilsandy Lara or (Nikola) Stevanovic and now I read Powell," stated Latimore.
Latimore, who served as one of Floyd Mayweather's chief sparring partners for his fight against Victor Ortiz, went on to say that he hopes to land a meaningful fight soon.

The Cowboys used six pitchers, including three freshmen, in the loss. They emptied the dugout with 15 position players making an appearance. So is this a game where with the championship claimed the Cowboys exhaled?
"OU played good today. They did a nice job and came out in the first inning, got on us and made a couple of clutch hits. We made a mistake or two but they created an inning and jumped a four-spot on us," said Cowboys head coach Josh Holliday. "That's a strong push early in a game, and we never could quite get anything going."
Okay, that was saying the right things when Josh Holliday and second baseman Tim Arakawa stepped into the post-game media session. But the Cowboys had a 12-game consecutive win streak and had beaten the Sooners on Thursday and Friday night with another meeting coming next Wednesday in their first game of the Big 12 Tournament at 4 p.m. in the Chickasaw Bricktown Ballpark.
Maybe you want to bring your team back down and push a little extra hunger, right?
"We came out ready to play but didn't play well enough to win, and they did," Holliday added. "That's a good, very capable ball club we were playing, and it was just one of those days."
One of those days (or nights) to ensure that next Wednesday is one of those days like Thursday or Friday of the Bedlam series. You see the regular season has been conquered, but it is over. The value has been established and the celebrations have been completed.
"That part of the year is done now and we're proud of what we've done and it can provide confidence," Holliday said of the 41-14 record that has left Oklahoma State in just about everybody's top 10 (c'mon man to Baseball America) and unfortunately at number 21 in the projected RPI ratings.
"We've got to roll up our sleeves and get ready for the next portion of our season which is the Big 12 Tournament."
It's a transitional time for the Cowboys and one their coach is completely used to making, so is pitching coach Rob Walton and third base coach Marty Lees. I think you can throw in some of the veterans on the club that get it, even though they haven't done it much. In the old glory days of Cowboys baseball, days Holliday and Walton experienced, there was a transition in postseason and after classes were done.
"It's a phase of the year that has tremendous challenges to it and these kids have done a tremendous job," Holliday said speaking of the regular season. "We have some really tough, grinding players that have stayed on their feet and competed from start to finish.
"You talk to other coaches across the country and you share or hear the frustrations and issues that they face with their teams. You realize how lucky you are to have kids that do everything you ask of them and show up every day and are coachable and listen and trust in one another. I'm grateful to those kids for what they've given us as coaches and to the program.
"We have to adjust to the tournament-style format and get used to being on the road and in hotels and preparing in a non-traditional manner because you don't always get to take BP (batting practice) on the field and all the other things you do in a traditional manner," Holliday continued in discussing the next week and future weeks, except it sure seems that the Cowboys will be back in Stillwater for one week after the Big 12 Tournament. "There is some opportunity for us to get used to a new routine for the postseason."
Here is a list of the players the Cowboys will really count on to move through the Big 12, the regional, hopefully, the super regional, and perhaps, on to Omaha.

C/OF Gage Green .330 with 14 doubles, 3 home runs, and 28 RBIs

LISTEN UP, liberals. I am about to tell you how to defeat the evil Republicans and sweep back to power. Its a very small thing, hardly worth mentioning. You could do it without breaking a sweat.
Stop your war on the middle class.
You could have everything you want: a world of creativity and authenticity, peace and justice, and an end to the cycle of violenceif you would just stop trying to smash the middle class and its totems of God, work, and family. Another way of saying this is: stop trying to neuter the Christian Right.
Last week I read Peggy Noonan relate the problems she faced years ago when she displayed a sculpture of the Virgin Mary outside her apartment off Park Avenue. It got so bad that she decided to take the Virgin back inside. But when she moved to Brooklyn, she found that Virgins are acceptable. She displayed the Virgin again, and nobody complained.
Imagine the trouble she would have got into if she had been living on the Upper West Side instead of the Upper East Side!
What is it about you liberals? Why cant you leave people alone, in their rich diversity, and let them worship their gods as they wish?
Luckily, some of us do know why you liberals, deep down, want to neuter the Christian Right. Its an old, old story. Its the age-old effort to stamp out superstition, the instinct inside everyone of us to replace your lie with my truth.
Theres a problem with this inquisitional approach, and nobody has described it better than conservative thinker Eric Voegelin. When we grasp a new truth, we do not really stand the old knowledge on its head, sweeping the slate clean. We merely accomplish a leap in being from compact knowledge to more differentiated knowledge. Even the great Copernican revolution did not invalidate the entire corpus of Aristotelian science. It just came up with a much better model of planetary mechanics than the old Ptolemaic model. Since then, we have accomplished another leap in being with the Einsteinian revolution.
If you are pushing a lawn mower around the yard, then Aristotelian mechanics still works pretty well: if you stop pushing the mower, it will stop. But if you want to compute the trajectory of an artillery shell, then you need Newtonian mechanics. If you want to compute the trajectory of an electron, then you need quantum mechanics.
For the prisoners in Platos Cave, the shadows on the wall represent the whole of reality. There is no use telling them about fires and walls and people walking to and fro until you have freed them from their chains and turned them around. Likewise, there is no hope in getting a liberal professor to understand about startups, market capitalization, and IPOs when all he knows is salary, tenure, and TIAA/CREF. To the liberal professor, the totems of capitalism are frightening mysteries beyond the familar world of the campus that he has mastered so well. As Plato knew, if you come back to the cave with your fantastic tales, the prisoners will laugh at you. If they could lay hands upon the man who was trying to set them free and lead them up, they would kill him.
Let us stipulate that the liberal vision of creativity, diversity, and one world human community of caring and sharing is the way to go. The next question is: what do we do about the current culture of nation states, capitalism, and Christianity? Do we encourage it? Do we replace it? Do we tolerate it?
We know what you liberals have decided: replace it. All this Puritan Ethic stuff was all very well in the nineteenth century, but now things are different. Yet the Chinese have recently decided, according to David Aikman in Jesus in Beijing, that Christianity is part of the package that makes the west pre-eminent all over the world. Said one academic: the heart of your culture is your religion: Christianity. That is why the West has been so powerful. There are said to be 80 million Christians in China right now, and we aint seen nothing yet.
Then there is the phenomenon of exploding Christianity in Africa and South America, not to mention megachurches in South Korea. It seems pretty clear that people on the cusp of the middle class, learning to make it in the city, choose Christianity.
If you stop your war on the middle class, you could still advance your progressive agenda. You would just concede a place in your progressive nirvana for enthusiastic Christianity.
But if you dont, then maybe we evil Republicans will get to govern America for another generation until there are a billion Chinese Christians. Then you liberals will really have your work cut out for you.

[W]hen I asked a liberal longtime editor I know with a mainstream [publishing] house for a candid, shorthand version of the assumptions she and her colleagues make about conservatives, she didn't hesitate. Racist, sexist, homophobic, anti-choice fascists, she offered, smiling but meaning it.
Harry Stein, I Can't Believe I'm Sitting Next to a Republican
[T]he way to achieve a system of determining admission to the public schools on a nonracial basis,
Brown II, 349 U. S., at 300–301, is to stop assigning students on a racial basis. The way to stop
discrimination on the basis of race is to stop discriminating on the basis of race.
Roberts, C.J., Parents Involved in Community Schools vs. Seattle School District
[T]he Liberal, and still more the subspecies Radical... more than any other in these latter days seems under the impression that so long as he has a good end in view he is warranted in exercising over men all the coercion he is able[.]
Herbert Spencer, The Man Versus the State
[To make] of each individual member of the army a soldier who, in character, capability, and knowledge, is self-reliant, self-confident, dedicated, and joyful in taking responsibility [verantwortungsfreudig] as a man and a soldier. — Gen. Hans von Seeckt
MacGregor Knox, Williamson Murray, ed., The dynamics of military revolution, 1300-2050
[The Axial Age] highlights the conception of a responsible self... [that] promise[s] man for the first time that he can understand the fundamental structure of reality and through salvation participate actively in it.
Robert N Bellah, "Religious Evolution", American Sociological Review, Vol. 29, No. 3.
[In the] higher Christian churches... they saunter through the liturgy like Mohawks along a string of scaffolding who have long since forgotten their danger. If God were to blast such a service to bits, the congregation would be, I believe, genuinely shocked. But in the low churches you expect it every minute.
Annie Dillard, Holy the Firm
[Every] sacrifice is an act of impurity that pays for a prior act of greater impurity... without its participants having to suffer the full consequences incurred by its predecessor. The punishment is commuted in a process that strangely combines and finesses the deep contradiction between justice and mercy.
Frederick Turner, Beauty: The Value of Values
Within Pentecostalism the injurious hierarchies of the wider world are abrogated and replaced by a single hierarchy of faith, grace, and the empowerments of the spirit... where groups gather on rafts to take them through the turbulence of the great journey from extensive rural networks to the mega-city and the nuclear family...
David Martin, On Secularization
What distinguishes true Conservatism from the rest, and from the Blair project, is the belief in more personal freedom and more market freedom, along with less state intervention... The true Third Way is the Holy Grail of Tory politics today - compassion and community without compulsion.
Minette Marrin, The Daily Telegraph
These emerge out of long-standing moral notions of freedom, benevolence, and the affirmation of ordinary life... I have been sketching a schematic map... [of] the moral sources [of these notions]... the original theistic grounding for these standards... a naturalism of disengaged reason, which in our day takes scientistic forms, and a third family of views which finds its sources in Romantic expressivism, or in one of the modernist successor visions.
Charles Taylor, Sources of the Self
There was nothing new about the Frankish drive to the east... [let] us recall that the continuance of their rule depended upon regular, successful, predatory warfare.
Richard Fletcher, The Barbarian Conversion
The Union publishes an exact return of the amount of its taxes; I can get copies of the budgets of the four and twenty component states; but who can tell me what the citizens spend in the administration of county and township?

South Carolina has begun to lower its unemployment rate thanks to new and expanding businesses. But it is doing so with no thanks to excessive, duplicative and confusing regulations.
According to the National Federation of Independent Business (NFIB), of the 25 most troublesome issues for small businesses, South Carolina ranks in five:
It is No. 4 in uncertainty over government actions; No. 5 in unreasonableness of government actions; No. 16 in state and local paperwork; No. 20 in dealing with tax agencies; and No. 25 in understanding regulatory environments.
Indeed, the New York University School of Law Institute for Police Integrity in 2010 gave South Carolina a "D" for its regulatory review process.
So Gov. Nikki Haley's decision in February to establish a task force to review regulations and recommend improvements was right in line with her "jobs, jobs, jobs" mission.
Now it will be up to the governor and her cabinet directors or, in some cases, the Legislature to consider the task force's suggestions. They should study them carefully and change what ought to be changed.
They should also, however, refrain from being overly hasty in loosening regulations that protect the environment from harmful business practices or protect the public from threats to their health.
For example, it makes sense to rethink a regulation that holds a small-scale honey producer, who sells directly to consumers, to the same standards as large-scale honey companies.
But the task force also recommends changes in the Department of Health and Environmental Control's regulations regarding solid waste facilities. That is a ticklish subject often cast as free enterprise versus residents' well-being. In this strong pro-business climate, residents could lose out if the state isn't careful.
Indeed, Coastal Conservation League Executive Director Dana Beach, a member of the task force, called for much more study before paring back environmental regulations.
The committee's findings, released in November, were drawn after studying 3,122 regulations across 22 state agencies. Most of the recommendations were to change regulations, but some addressed awkward or unnecessary processes, and three addressed the legislative process.
State lawmakers should pay timely heed to those conclusions as they begin a new legislative session this week.
The task force's work should encouragefixes that would make South Carolina more efficient and friendly to small businesses, without sacrificing the natural resources that make those businesses want to come and stay.

Area residents continue to monitor the air traffic around Amarillo, keeping their eyes toward the sky.
The number of military fighter planes, bombers and cargo aircraft above the city has not increased, just the awareness.
"We have always been a place where military come to train because of good weather and a large runway," said Rich McCollum, Amarillo International Airport manager. "Some days we hardly have any, and other days it seems like we're a military base."
Since the terrorist attacks a month ago, people have noticed more military airplanes making brief visits in the city.
"I think people are more aware, especially now that the U.S. is at war, literally," McCollum said. "It draws a little more attention, but as far as actual numbers there's nothing different from a year, two or five years ago."
The military accounts for the majority of the city's 120,000 annual takeoffs.
Pilots from around the country usually make a stop in Amarillo, McCollum said.
"Pilots have to fly regularly to stay current," he said. "They can't go train in Dallas, Love Field or Austin because there's too much traffic. We don't have a lot of other traffic here."
On Wednesday, a B-2 stealth bomber, B-52 bomber and two F-16 airplanes flew above Amarillo, said Randall Honea, general manager of Tac Air of Amarillo.
"Those three you don't see every day," he said. "In my opinion, it was just a nice day to be looking in the sky."
Tac Air, which fuels military planes, serviced few airplanes Thursday. Business during the past few months has remained steady. On average, Tac Air helps about 10 military airplanes per day, Honea said.
"(Wednesday) there were things in the air you don't see very often," he said. "I don't know the answer. It was just a rarity."
Area residents have closely monitored air traffic in and around Amarillo in the wake of last month's attacks.
Pantex Plant officials said the plant and its workers continue to be vigilant, but they will not discuss the potential for specific aircraft or other terrorist threats.
"Pantex has a world-class security program that continuously analyzes and plans for various threats to the plant. We understand that some have questions about these matters, but to best serve the interests of our nation and our community, we will not provide responses concerning Pantex's ability to respond to any terrorist scenario," Dan Glenn, the Energy Department's Amarillo Area Office Manager, said in a statement.
Several years ago, plant and state officials began reviewing the threat of an accidental plane crash into Pantex plutonium storage.
Then-Gov. Ann Richards and other officials cited concerns about the analysis and said it was flawed and should be reviewed.
In 1993, a top DOE official gave an Amarillo public briefing on the aircraft crash analysis.
Stephen Guidice, a top official in the DOE's Albuquerque operations office, said the estimated probability of an aircraft crash into plutonium storage magazines that could cause a significant release of plutonium was slightly less than 1 in a million per year.

Cabin was stinking, some problem on bus giving continous alarm and not able to sleep, Bus leaking like fountain due to rain,bus stopped for dinner in such a ridiculous place ,there is no hygiene,very disappointing travel
Very tedious journey. Only stopped the bus at Palakkad for food--Aryas Hotel. Such a long trip not provided the minimum standards, not stopped for urinals. All the category of people were suffered too much. In between Coimbatore and Trichi without ticket so many passengers entered and gave special money to driver. While returning the trip the timings was 6.30. The bus arrived at 9.45 pm, all ladies standing on the road with heavy rain. No message got in the mobile phone that the bus is late ...Here after nobody will prefer Universal bus travels charted by the REDBUS
Its the worst travels Ive ever travelled with. They had said the time of departure as 1830 then when I reached their office, they asked me to come after an hour. But the bus came only by 2130. After booking ticket for an AC bus, what came was a non AC dilapidated roofed bus, which kept leaking throughout the journey because of the rain. I was literally cramped up to the corner of the seat to keep myself away from rain, within the so-called bus. Finally to add up to the mess, for a journey taking approximately 14 hrs, they dropped me at Vytilla at 1230. I dont know how to explain how miserable Im feeling.
from chidambaram to ernakulam they made me to travelled in 4 buses(Universal travels Volvo AC). Booked for Volvo AC but made us to travel in Non AC and paid Rs100/- cashback. The worst journey in my life.During my tired sleep they made me get down with all luggages to next bus.Redbus is also supporting such issues. You never be victory all the time making the passengers to such situation.

Rays hand Seattle sixth straight setback
ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. – The term that manager Eric Wedge kept using after Thursday's 4-3 loss to the Tampa Bay Rays, the Mariners' sixth straight defeat, was "getting over the hump."
He sees a young team that lost four games by a total of five runs against a strong Rays ballclub as being on the verge of competing against the game's best.
But he's also realistic enough to know they are having too many maddening breakdowns at key junctures.
The upshot is that some changes could be in the wind for the Mariners. The obvious focus is on the leadoff spot, where Chone Figgins is mired in a slump that has seen his average drop to .189 after Thursday's 0 for 4. Figgins is hitless in his past 19 at-bats and was 4 for 31 (.129) on the 10-game trip. He has struck out 28 times in 95 at-bats.
"It's tough to produce in the middle when you're not doing what you need to do up top," Wedge said. "We've got to do what we've got to do. We're a month into this now in a few more days. We'll continue to look at everything, like we always do."
Certainly, Figgins' continued presence in the leadoff spot is in jeopardy. Whether the Mariners would cut Figgins — who is still owed the remainder of $9 million this year, plus $8 million next year — is becoming a pertinent question.
Figgins said he feels "great" at the plate.
"I'm taking some aggressive hacks. I'm just not having anything to show for it," he said. "Sometimes it gets me in trouble, being too aggressive, going out of the zone. But like I said, I just feel good. I can't get anything going, but honestly it's the best I've felt in a while."
The last two nights, Figgins has faced two starting pitchers, James Shields and Jeff Niemann, against whom he had a career .419 average (18 for 43) and still couldn't get a hit.
"When I'm hitting, squaring some balls up, I'm driving some balls, which is good," he said. "Then there's times when I'm a little too aggressive, so I've got to go back to finding that middle ground.
"You'd rather not feel good and get hits. It's a good thing to feel good, but there's still that borderline between being aggressive and too aggressive."
Struggling shortstop Brendan Ryan, whose average has dropped to .125 with a 0-for-26 slump, was on the bench Thursday. Wedge said the team needs to get him going.
"He's taken away more runs at shortstop than anyone in the game," he said. "That's real. You can't get away from that. With what we saw this spring from him, what we saw at times in the past year, that's real, too, offensively. If you get a guy that can defend himself at home plate, and just be even borderline average, you have a championship-level shortstop, without a doubt."
For the Mariners, the depressing story of this trip's painful detour — they had won the first four games — was written (or, more accurately, rewritten) in the sixth inning.
Trailing by a run, they got a leadoff double from John Jaso, a promising start to what could have been an uplifting rally. But the next three hitters — Mike Carp, Justin Smoak and Michael Saunders — each struck out.
Jaso died at third (after a wild pitch), and the Mariners' hopes of salvaging a game against the Rays eventually died, too.
"You've got to get him over," Wedge said. "I'm giving our guys a chance to do that because they have to learn to do that. You don't always want to give up … In certain situations, you're not just looking to bunt the ball. We work on it every day. They have to make sure it translates to the baseball game."
As they had the night before, the Mariners jumped ahead early but couldn't hold on. They scored two in the second, and the best part was it didn't take a home run to do it. They came home on a ground out by Carp and a single by Smoak, ending a streak of 13 consecutive runs scored by the Mariners via homers.
But Kevin Millwood, still looking for his first Mariners win after five starts, couldn't hold the lead, giving up four runs in the bottom of the inning, runs that held up.
Millwood got two quick outs before it fell apart, though he nearly got out of it. On a hard grounder by Will Rhymes, third baseman Kyle Seager made a great diving stop to his left, but his throw pulled Smoak off the bag.
The Rays showed why they have won 10 of 11 games and were tied for the majors' best record. Jeff Keppinger crushed a two-run homer to left to tie the game, and after two more singles, Desmond Jennings tripled to right-center for two more.
"That's a play that changes the whole outcome," Seager said. "We get out of that inning … that's a play I'd have liked to have made."

RASHANN LONDON was in a rush.
It was a tepid, spring daybreak last April as London scurried down the gray-carpeted stairs of his brick-patterned row home in Mount Airy. He rushed to the door with his gym bag around his body, fully stocked, ready for the road.
London met his coach outside his home right off Wadsworth and Michener avenues. He leapt into the black pickup and slammed his passenger door shut.

Just like beer, we all consume a lot of blog content.
It's a coincidence, but we consume blogs and beers at about the same rate.
Each week, the average American has 4.2 drinks and reads 4.1 blogs (sources: Gallup, Hubspot).
So if your blog was a beer, what kind would it be?
Every blog has a flavor. Like beer, some are light and some are heavy.
Some have a lot of flavor, others don't. Let's explore this ridiculous metaphor and imagine your blog in a pint glass…
Beer Blogging
The Light Beer
The basic lager. The domestic microbrew. Labels may vary, but the taste is pretty much the same. Often found in red plastic cups. Some people love Miller Lite. They're brand loyal, just like some of your readers. But taste your last few posts. Do they read like a lot of other blogs? Could they have been written by anyone? If your blog tastes like water, that's not a good thing. Your blog should sound like you. It should have a personality and style of it's own. Make your blog a microbrew with a label and flavor that distinguishes itself from the big guys.
The IPA
Ales have flavor. Sometimes they're so hoppy they make your face pucker. You feel them as much as you taste them. These are the blogs that make you feel something. They have an opinion. They're not shy. They have passion and a natural voice. They know who they are, and they take a stand. Sometimes they're negative. Sometimes they're personal.
The Stout
Ah, the heavyweights of the beer world. For most of us, a stout beer isn't a casual, everyday thing. Drinking a big glass of alcoholic black liquid is always a deliberate act. These are the practical, no-nonsense blogs with heavy content. The stouts are the big how-to posts, the well-researched reference pieces, and the 2,500 word epic posts. They may be slower to pour, and people don't want them everyday, but these posts get bookmarked, and these newsletters get saved.
Tap the Keg or Stock the Fridge?
A cold draft is great. But if your blog is one giant keg of the same stuff, visitors might get bored. Even if visitors love what you have on tap, it's still good to have some variety. Keep some microbrews in the fridge, and mix it up!
- Find new brewmasters! Invite guests to post on your site. They'll bring new content and maybe a new audience.
- Try something seasonal! Change the topics and tone based on what's happening.
- Give your patrons the beer they desire! If your analytics (and their bar tab) show they like a certain flavor, make sure to keep it in the rotation.
Drunk with Content
If blogs were beer, we'd all be hammered. There are tens of millions of blogs on the Internet. All that content makes it harder to stand out. This is why it's so important to use your own voice (IPAs) and to sometimes publish something substantial (stouts). The web doesn't need another Bud Light!
Keep it Flowing!
Whatever you do, maintain a regular frequency of frosty cold blog posts, even if it's monthly or quarterly. If your blog is tapped out, you might find your regulars quenching their thirst at another bar.
Two questions: What's your favorite beer…and what type of beer does your blog best resemble?

I had to give up beer for the same reason I give up most blogs I taste: they put me to sleep. Blogwise (since I no longer have opinions about beer) I prefer the stouts. Give me something meaty. There's enough overhead in just finding my way to somebody's blog post that I want that time to be repaid with some real substance.
Not that I'm adamantly opposed to the occasional light sip. Such as, for example, this post. Most refreshing.
maxchristianhansen Glad you liked it, Max. Beer is almost a universal topic, but not quite. 🙂
Does my blog taste great, but is it less filling? Is this blog for you? Is it Australian for blog? Thanks for inspiring me to ask these important questions. I fancy myself an IPA kinda gal, but now I need to make sure my posts "make your face pucker." Fun stuff!
Word Ninja this made me google "Foster's Beer Blog" and discover they don't have one! They're sitting on a goldmine and don't even know it
JoeCardillo Word Ninja Some others do have blogs…New Belgium, Dogfish…You should pitch it to them!
Word Ninja JoeCardillo Ha! I knew there was something I should be doing with all that extra time I have on my hands =P
Love this post Andy! I drink Stouts but I wouldn't say my blog posts are that heavy. I tend to write How To's though, so I guess maybe?!
yvettepistorio I'm a stout drinker myself…and a stout blogger. My latest thinking on blog length goes something like this:
I try to write short words, short sentences and short paragraphs, but I don't try to write short posts. Each post should be just as long as necessary to quench the readers, thirst for the topic!
Mmmmmmmm, beer!
My favorite is Guinness.
My blog sadly resembles O'Douls.
Favorite would be Abraxes from Perennial however my "blog" looks like um baby formula
Wonderful post! ahh beer one of my favorite topics. 🙂
How do you classify the local microbrew? A breed on its own; unique, different, small batch, tight following, quality more important than big sales…..
I heart this post so much.
I read this yesterday and was super excited about it. And then I went for a bike ride and I thought about it and your notebook full of ideas and I have decided we're no longer friends. I WILL BEAT YOU IN WITTY CONTENT SOMEDAY!
ginidietrichSorry, Gini, but we're friends no matter what! We have no choice but to get a beer and collaborate on some killer content. 🙂
crestodina Sigh…
Nifty idea Andy! Someone could make a pretty cool infographic out of this idea
I'm afraid I'm somewhere between Light Beer and IPA as a blogger =
JoeCardillo "Somebody" sure could!
If my blog was a beer, it would be a strong beer. : -)
Frank_Strong http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=obKLdou0LH0
JoeCardillo ha. really made me LOL!
JoeCardillo BTW, had no idea you worked for Visual.ly. One of these days I need to set aside time and really work on creating something.
Frank_Strong JoeCardillo It's kinda sad really, I've been sitting on that clip for weeks hoping an opportunity would pop up =)
DM me your email on the tweets, happy to chat when you have free time (which I suspect is never)
I wish to be between and IPA and a Stout. How about a Dark IPA? Kinda popular 'round these parts.
Craig McBreen Cascadian Dark Ale! 🙂
jasonkonopinski Brilliant 🙂 … I'm thirsty.
Craig McBreen jasonkonopinski New Glarus Black IPA 🙂
AnneReuss Craig McBreen jasonkonopinski I miss New Glarus so much. Used to be the primary beer stocked in my bar manager days.
It kinda bums me that I can't order it outside of Wisco, but it's also kind of a good incentive to visit often.
AnneReuss Craig McBreen jasonkonopinski We get a good Alaska IPA out here!
JoeCardillo AnneReuss Craig McBreen jasonkonopinski Deschutes Hop in the Dark is another one. Now I'm brewing my own, so this might be my fall recipe 🙂
"If blogs were beer, we'd all be hammered."- GOLD!
RebeccaTodd well said Rebecca.
My blog is a Corona. Sure its still a lager, but every sip is refreshing and once you finish you want some more. Put a little lime in there and you've got a great drink.
bigrayarea1 Corona is good with a lime. For your blog, the lime might be the occasional interview, infographic, podcast, etc. It's nice to add a little flavor sometimes…
A favorite beer, crestodina? That's like picking a favorite blog. Ebel's Weiss from Two Brothers is a solid spicy fave. Pepe Nero from Goose Island has a kick! Perhaps my blog is something where you get some spice out of it, but there's some time in between. AKA I could blog more frequently. But I got the beer part down 😉
Great piece and metaphor!!

Drunk with Content i like your thought.
My favorites are the stouts and porters. I'm a malt guy, and it never hurts to have hints of chocolate or espresso. My blog is a micro-brew…small audience that trusts my content. I'm not too hoppy…tend to use sports analogies to teach, but will sometimes provide hints of flavor regarding leadership, character, or the importance of education.
I like the bitter-sweet porter blog.
Love this beer/blog analogy! Also, is it just me being Canadian or does that statistic of weekly American drinks seem a little low?
My blog would be tea. 🙂 Fun, friendly, delightful, slightly caffeinated.
Suppose someone drink too much beer then end result is that person not in control similar to blog, If I write three post per day then readers can't take seriously. Am I right?

Loans to small firms picks up in AprilMay 10th, 2012, 10:00 am by Jan Norman, small-business columnist
Approval of small-business loans increased from all lending sources in April compared to a year earlier, reports Biz2Credit.
Alternative lenders, such as accounts receivable financiers, approved63% of small-business loans, compared to 53.6% a year earlier. Credit unions approved 57.4% of loan applications; small banks (less than $10 billion in assets) 45.9% and big banks (more than $10 billion in assets) 10.6% of small-business loans.
Biz2Credit based its Small Business Lending Index on an analysis of 1,000 loan applications on the website.
Each of those is more than a year earlier but down slightly from March.
The decline may be attributable to the end of 90% loan guarantees for loans by the U.S. Small Business Administration. The number of SBA-guaranteed loans declined in April for the first time in a year.Read the rest of this entry »

Skip to comments.Dear Michael Steele and the RNC...you suck! [vanity]
Posted on 10/25/2009 10:16:51 PM PDT by rabscuttle385
click here to read article
You should. Because if you're a Conservative and care about the future of the GOP, he despises you. In fact, if you don't see him as less than divine, he despises you. Actually, even if you do, he still does. He thinks he's better than you, and you can see it right on his face. Do you think he's better than you ?
Yeah but I've seen your posts (on Romney) going back to the primaries and I never could figure out if you hated Romney because of his politics or because of his religion. If you hate him for his politics, I can respect that. If you hate him for his religion....? Well, I don't listen to bigots of any stripe.
If you saw my numerous posts on the subject, all of his slackjawed disciples and paid agents tried to attribute my opposition to him based solely on religion, despite having a shred of proof in a single posting to give validity to such a libelous accusation. I couldn't give a damn what his religion was (short of Mohammadanism) any more than I gave a damn about Huckster's (for whom same said slackjaws were more than happy to hypocritically hide behind my frontal assaults on the ex-AR phony's record, yet same said folks didn't accuse me of being anti-Baptist).
My opposition to him was based on his being not only an epic fail disaster as a Governor and as a political party leader, but being perhaps one of the single-most arrogant and deceitful individuals I've ever seen in politics, bar none. There is not an ounce of humility, honesty or integrity, not one drop. He doesn't care about anyone or anything except for himself and what he gets out of it.
He possesses neither the accomplishments, nor the character to serve in any position of authority. I find him, on the whole, to be a thoroughly execrable human being. And for all those that think such an assessment is too harsh, I have but one thing to say: Brian & Beverly Mauck. When someone considers a lunch more important than vetting a known leftist pro-criminal applicant to the bench, indeed, considers it a rank inconvenience and pissant duty, and said applicant, now judge, frees a felon to go and murder an innocent couple, I have absolutely zero respect for.
Even worse when the news broke of said murders that his reaction was more indignation that HE might be responsible for that (he was 100% responsible) and that it was "inconvenient" to his Presidential campaign (just like vetting the judicial applicant was cutting in to his lunch appointment). There aren't any printable words to describe someone like that. Elect that President (or VP) ? I can think of little that is more viscerally repugnant.
If for all those others out there who can't digest the above, I'll make it even simpler: I don't vote for liars.
"A donation in your name has been made to the National Right to Life Committee."
LOL! Good for you!
Subtle. Very subtle. And who is Jim Thompson, anyway?
Thanks for your kind words. I feel like I'm having to make amends, because I was one of those fooled early on (as in 1994), despite evidence showing he was never going to be on our side. Back in those days, I was gullible enough to swallow the "any Republican is better than any Democrat" line. There are worse things, a Democrat pretending to be a Republican, or just pathological liars (not that those are mutually exclusive). At least I'm wide-awake now and I will never support any frauds like him ever again. I give pols one chance. You either speak the truth to me, tell me your true intentions, or I will never support you. I'm sick of these elitists with ulterior and sinister motives and plans.
Not two puppies in every pot? LOL
Good one ;-)
"Im sick of these elitists with ulterior and sinister motives and plans."
Most of us are!
dude, put a couple 'forever' stamps on it, just to make damn sure it gets there...
Too late! It's been mailed. Let the RNC pay return postage LOL.
prolly shoulda donated a few used sinkers as well in the envelope...irony woulda been priceless...
I have every bit of confidence that they will send me yet another envelope or...God forbid...actually call my family again.

Second Kevin Hart show added at Milwaukee Theatre Dec. 15
A late night show for hot stand-up Kevin Hart has been added at the Milwaukee Theatre Dec. 15.
Hart, 32, has had a strong 2012, including double platinum DVD sales of his stand-up film "Laugh at My Pain." His appearance in this past spring's "Think Like a Man" is considered to be key contributor to that film's box office success; it grossed nearly $92 million at the U.S. box office, according to Box Office Mojo, and was reportedly made for $12 million.
