Great product
Comment:I have had 2 of them for about a year. They work great and are stronger than any 1/2 inch air ones I have used. I have sat on some crank bolts with other quality guns that just wouldn't do the job. This thing has broken everything we have tried it on (automotive). The only industrial type application I have tried was on a tractor blade with some large bolts 36-42 mm I don't remember exactly, the point is they all broke with no issues within a second. By hand, those nuts would not brake with a cheater bar.Rudy

Hashima Island: in 1974 the coal ran out, but the ghosts remained
A few miles off the coast of Japan lies "Battleship Island," or Gunkanjima (軍艦島), the Japanese nickname for Hashima Island, due to its resemblance to the Japanese Tosa battleship. The island was formerly a densely populated coal mining town, purchased by Mitsubishi in 1890, but by the 1960s the coal was running out, and in 1974 the island was quickly vacated as Mitsubishi offered residents jobs elsewhere. Now, the island is an urban explorer's dream, though the island is not completely open to the public for tours. Last year, Google trekker walked the island, providing a virtual tour of the island. And if the roughly 40 year old ruins aren't foreboding enough, Bryan James put together a Chrome experiment called Hashima Island: Forgotten World, based on the Google maps tour of the site.

I think you're a sexist, misogynist dinosaur. A relic of the Cold War.
The new James Bond movie, Skyfall, has largely been well received by critics some of who have suggested that the film is less sexist than its predecessors. Others have disagreed and stated that the new film has is quite problematic and may be "abandoning the moral intelligence of the times". Giles Coren, writer for The Times, put forth a piece that calls Skyfall "a sick, reactionary, depressing film". The Times refused to run the piece saying that "it was about James Bond and there's been too much Bond". So Coren's wife and fellow journalist, Esther Walker, agreed to run the piece in her blog.
James Bond will return in...
Bond 50 - SFX Magazine has been recapping all 22 "official" Bond films, from Dr. No to Quantum of Solace in the run up to Skyfall (critical reation, trailer).

Latham accuses Howard of misleading Parliament
To answer the critical question "Did the PM mislead parliament over the meeting with Dick Honan?", we've convened the two leaders of Government and Opposition business in Parliament House - the Minister for Employment, Tony Abbott, and Shadow Treasurer Mark Latham.
Compere: Tony Jones
Reporter: Tony Jones
TONY JONES: Returning now to our top story ... the Opposition's bid to censure the PM over a meeting with the head of an ethanol company before a critical decision affecting the industry, and to answer the critical question "Did the PM mislead parliament over the meeting with Dick Honan?", we've convened the two leaders of Government and Opposition business in Parliament House ... the Minister for Employment, Tony Abbott, and Shadow Treasurer Mark Latham.
Welcome to both of you.
MARK LATHAM, SHADOW TREASURER: G'day, Tony.
TONY ABBOTT, EMPLOYMENT MINISTER: G'day.
TONY JONES: First to you, Mark Latham, day one of a new session and already you've accused the Prime Minister of lying to Parliament.
Do you regret making that statement?
It's an incredibly serious charge?
MARK LATHAM: Well, it's an incredibly clear misleading of the Parliament.
Let's understand the nature of this.
On 19th September last year, the Prime Minister said this in the Parliament, in the House, "The member asked me what communication my office had with Manildra relating to the decision to change excise arrangements for the ethanol industry, as I stated earlier I had not spoken to Dick Honan on this issue".
Then we find out through an FOI request that there had been a meeting on 1 August, clearly documented by the PM's Department, where he met with Mr Honan and they discussed the matter of the excise policy for ethanol producers.
So, Tony, this is the clearest misleading of the Parliament that you will ever find in a month of Sundays.
I mean, this is just so clear-cut.
And the incredible thing is the Government is even willing to defend this.
TONY JONES: Tony Abbott, you're obviously willing to defend it.
Has the Prime Minister inadvertently or deliberately misled the Parliament over this meeting?
TONY ABBOTT: Of course he hasn't.
What's happened here, Tony is that the Opposition has allowed its hatred of the Prime Minister yet again to cloud its political judgment.
I think the Opposition made fools of themselves this afternoon by moving a censure motion when there is just no evidence to support it.
And the fact that so many Opposition members absented themselves from the vote was a sign of no confidence in the Opposition leader and in the Opposition's tactics today.
TONY JONES: Tony Abbott, let me ask you this, if I can -- why did the Prime Minister, I should say, fail to tell the Parliament when clearly asked whether or not he'd had such a meeting that he had had a meeting with Dick Honan in the period that was asked about in the question?
TONY ABBOTT: Because the questions all referred to the Brazilian ethanol shipment and when the Prime Minister had his meeting with Dick Honan, no-one knew about the Brazilian ethanol shipment.
Dick Honan didn't know about it, the Prime Minister didn't know about it.
Now, if you actually look at the Hansard, the context of the Brazilian ethanol shipment is made absolutely crystal clear either by the question or the answer.
TONY JONES: Alright.
Mark Latham, we're hearing here is that the Prime Minister has been taken out of context.
MARK LATHAM: Well, what you've actually got is the question on 19 September asked on subjects with nothing to do with the Brazilian boat, and then an answer from the Prime Minister that had nothing to do with the Brazilian boat.
So you can't get any clearer than that.
And for the Government to say it's alright for the Prime Minister to say, "it's taken out of context, what I meant to do on 19 September was to answer a question asked two days earlier on a different subject", just makes high farce of the Australian Parliament.
How can you have parliamentary rules where someone can get away with misleading the Parliament on the basis that his context was a question asked two days earlier on a separate subject about the Brazilian boat?
The head spins when you think of the nonsense involved in this.
This is a government trying to pretend that white is black and black is white and the rest of us are absolute fools.
We're not fools.
We know the truth.
The Prime Minister has misled.
He should be a big enough person to come into the Parliament and say in a straightforward way, "Look, I made an error here, there's a misleading, I apologise, I correct the parliamentary record".
He's known as Little Johnny because he's never big enough to tell the truth and own up to a mistake.
TONY JONES: Tony Abbott, let's go to the original question that was asked.
I mean, there are two sections to it.
Are you suggesting the Prime Minister only answered the second part of that question?
TONY ABBOTT: Well, if he did, the Opposition have only themselves to blame.
If they want to ask six-part questions, they can hardly get upset if the Prime Minister or anyone else chooses to answer some parts of the question and not other parts of the question.
But it's very clear, I think, from the totality of the Opposition's question, and the totality of the Prime Minister's answer, exactly what the context of the answer was.
MARK LATHAM: The totality of the context ... there you go, Tony, that's honesty Howard Government style.
Tony Abbott, what about just a straight outline of the facts, instead of the "totality of the context" and this beating around the bush.
What about a Prime Minister who calls them as he sees them and if he's made a blue ... and we all make them in life ... just be man enough to come into the House of Representatives and say, "Look, a bit of a mistake here, here's correction of the parliamentary record."
And honesty and integrity in the Australian Parliament is preserved.
TONY ABBOTT: You're not accusing him, Mark, of just a bit of a mistake.
You're accusing him of the most heinous crime a parliamentarian can commit.
If you actually look at the words you've cited, "The member asked me what communication my office had with Manildra relating to the decision to change excise arrangements".
Well, the member was the member for Chisholm and the decision to change excise arrangements was precisely the decision that was brought about by the Brazilian shipment.
It couldn't be clearer.
MARK LATHAM: That's untrue, in fact.
It was McMullan the previous day.
TONY JONES: It's a pretty complicated issue.
Tony Abbott, can I interrupt to get a few facts on the table.
What exactly was discussed by the Prime Minister at his private meeting with Dick Honan on August 1 last year?
TONY ABBOTT: Um, as far as I am aware, and I haven't studied the FOI material with semiotic intensity, as far as I am aware there was a general discussion about a whole range of subjects, including the ethanol industry.
What was not discussed was the Brazilian ethanol shipment because neither the Prime Minister nor Dick Honan was aware of that shipment at that time.
But just to come back to something Mark Latham said --
TONY JONES: Before you do that, can we go through this in a little more detail because it does appear from the notes of that FOI request that Mr Honan indeed wanted a payment of a producer credit to enable local producers to compete with a cheaper Brazilian product.
So whilst you're saying there's no mention of that exact shipment, there certainly appeared to have been discussion about protecting the local industry from Brazilian ethanol.
Is that correct?
TONY ABBOTT: Yes, except the questions that the Prime Minister was subsequently asked in the Parliament are all specifically to do with the Trafigura Brazilian ethanol shipment.
Here we have Mr McMullan saying, "Prime Minister, were you or your office urged to take action to prevent Trafigura Fuels Australia from importing a shipment of ethanol from Brazil at a commercially comparative price?".
Well, that was not discussed at that meeting.
And, therefore, the Prime Minister's answers were perfectly in order.
TONY JONES: Mark Latham?
MARK LATHAM: Well, Tony Abbott has changed his mind.
A moment ago it was the member for Chisholm, Anna Burke, had asked the question.
Now it's McMullan.
He's confused as the Prime Minister.
And they're just dissembling about the facts here.
The truth is the statement couldn't have been any clearer.
He's been asked about communication with his office with Manildra relating to the decision to change excise arrangements for the ethanol industry.
I'll be the Easter bunny if if there's mention of a Brazilian boat there in that statement by the Prime Minister.
It just ain't there.
Then he says, "I'd not spoken to Dick Honan on this issue."
Now you just can't take the Australian people as mugs.
What the PM has done, he's made a very clear statement that just wasn't true and it had to be corrected.
TONY JONES: Isn't that at the heart of whether the Prime Minister has misled or not misled, whether indeed he had spoken to Dick Honan and then subsequently on September 19 and 18 denied that he'd done so?
TONY ABBOTT: But he was asked about the Trafigura shipment and that is what he hadn't discussed with Dick Honan and that's why his answers are perfectly appropriate.
MARK LATHAM: The answer makes no mention of the shipment.
Goodness gracious.
The answer makes no mention of the shipment.
How can we judge the answer by the question when the logical, rational person judges the answer by the bloody answer?
TONY ABBOTT: I think there's a note of desperation.
MARK LATHAM: Oh, geez, frustration, Tony.
Come on.
TONY JONES: You wouldn't deny, would you, that the original question as asked, the first part of it indeed, did say, "Was the Government contacted by the major Australian producer of ethanol or any representative of his company?"
TONY ABBOTT: Yes, and then it went on to say, "Was the Government urged to take action to prevent Trafigura Fuels Australia from importing a shipment of ethanol?"
A specific question and that was what the Prime Minister was responding to.
TONY JONES: Mark Latham?
MARK LATHAM: Well, Tony, I give up.
It's like arguing with the Iraqi Information Minister.
There's no tanks in Baghdad but they're standing right behind him.
Black is white, white is black.
How much further can you take this?
You've got a senior Minister here not understanding the facts and then changing his mind, but defending the indefensible.
You have a Prime Minister in black and white here, written form, in the parliamentary Hansard, the tape of what he said, where he has said in the Parliament that he's been asked about communication his office had had with Manildra relating to the decision to change excise arrangements, and he said he hadn't spoken to Honan.
Then they invent this argument, retrospectively, that he's talking about a Brazilian boat.
My three-year-old son could look at that and see there's no mention of a Brazilian boat.
So it's a misleading of the Parliament and John Howard should be man enough to come in and say the thing that he represented in Opposition, that a Prime Minister who has made a mistake should be big enough to correct the record ... not for the good of the Labor Party, not for the good of any MP, but the good of the Australian people who expect a bit of truth and decency in Australian politics.
TONY JONES: Mark Latham, do you have any objection at all to the fact this meeting took place in the first place?
MARK LATHAM: Well, Tony said he hasn't studied the record of the meeting.
You can see there that most of the record is actually blank, it's gone off to the X files.
So, we know little of what was said because most of the document has been blanked out by the Howard Government.
There is an element of secrecy.
It would be very useful if the Government could actually release the full record of the meeting of the Prime Minister and Dick Honan on 1 August.
I do have an objection, though, to the outcome, to the policy outcome ... because the Government's throwing $240 million of hard-earned taxpayers' money at a company that is profitable, could easily fund its expansion plans, in an industry in where, when I drive around, I see placards up in petrol stations saying 'We guarantee there's no ethanol', so you'd have to wonder about the value of the tax-payers money under those circumstances.
And then you have department after department saying this is bad policy and the head of the government's own fuel inquiry, David Trebeck, saying it's the craziest policy decision in 30 years, I mean, Trebeck's suggesting a new nickname for the Prime Minister ... crazy John.
He's crazy about Dick Honan and throwing taxpayers' money at this company, Manildra.
Tony Abbott, let me ask you this straight out ... was this a special deal for a big Liberal Party donor?
There'd be no denials that that's what Dick Honan is.
TONY ABBOTT: He's been a big donor no the Labor Party over the years, an extremely big donor to the Labor Party over the years.
And when it come to special deals for the ethanol industry, the best deal of all was the deal given to the ethanol industry back in 1993 by none other than Simon Crean when he was the Agriculture Minister.
TONY JONES: I want to bring you back to one point, Tony Abbott, because we are nearly out of time.
I mean, it is clear the meeting took place.
Why didn't the Prime Minister simply say, when he was asked about such a meeting last year, if he wasn't ashamed of it in any way, that the meeting did take place, rather than to appear to deny that such a meeting took place?
TONY ABBOTT: Because he was asked a specific question about discussions --
TONY JONES: He was also, with respect, he was also asked ... because you have gone over that ... he was also asked a very specific discussion which I cited to you a moment ago about whether or not he'd had any contact with a major Australian producer of ethanol or any representative of his company.
He had had such contact --
TONY ABBOTT: Yes, but what he also makes clear in all of his answers is that there have been all sorts of representations and meetings between Dick Honan and the Government, because that's what happens when government is in the process of considering or making decisions about a particular industry.
Now, the interesting thing about what this Government did was ... we denied Dick Honan the two big things that he demanded.
The first was no cap on ethanol and the second was a mandatory usage of ethanol and both of those requests have been turned down by the Government.
TONY JONES: Alright.
We're nearly out of time.
Mark Latham, a quick final response.
There was a report you might try to force the Prime Minister before the Parliamentary Privileges Committee over this.
This is there any chance you'll still try to pull that one off?
MARK LATHAM: Well, it's under consideration.
It's a very serious misleading of the Parliament and today we had the absurd situation where the Prime Minister refused to answer any of the questions.
He's argued a context in an answer that was given two days earlier than the mislead of the Parliament.
It's incredibly frustrating for the Opposition when you're trying to hold the Government to account under these circumstances.
We'll keep our options open for the future.
We believe in parliamentary honesty and integrity.
We just want the Prime Minister to live up to the standards.
TONY JONES: In one word, would you block that from happening ... the Prime Minister being forced to appear before the Parliamentary Privileges Committee?
TONY ABBOTT: Well, that would be a matter for the speaker, for the committee and for the Parliament, but plainly Labor is flogging a dead horse here.
MARK LATHAM: Honesty in the Howard Government is a very, very dead horse.
TONY JONES: Thanks to both of you for coming in to join us tonight.
MARK LATHAM: Thanks, Tony Jones.

Sen. Tom Coburn, a fierce critic of wasteful government spending, announced plans to retire when the Senate's current session ends in early 2015 -- two years before the end of his term.
As ranking member on the Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee, the Oklahoma Republican fought to reduce spending on duplicative government programs, and in recent years worked on legislation to eliminate improper payments. He is perhaps best known for releasing his annual Waste Book, a list of programs and expenditures that he felt squandered taxpayer money. Coburn targeted both outdated IT systems and agency conference and travel spending in recent years.
"No one has done more to awaken Americans to the threat posed by a government that chronically spends more than it takes in, and no one has worked harder at finding a solution," Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) said.
Coburn is not opposed to all spending, however. Though he has said he believes as much as half of the federal government's annual IT expenditure of $82 billion is wasted,in January he suggested that salaries for the federal IT procurement workforce could be raised to better compete with the private sector for talent.
An obstetrician by training, Coburn first came to Washington as part of the House Republican wave in 1994. He retired after three terms, then ran for the Senate in 2004. Coburn recently revealed he is in treatment for prostate cancer, but said that his illness is not behind his decision to leave the Senate.
"As a citizen, I am now convinced that I can best serve my own children and grandchildren by shifting my focus elsewhere. In the meantime, I look forward to finishing this year strong," Coburn said in a statement on his website.
It's not clear who will succeed Coburn as ranking member on the Homeland Security panel. John McCain (R-Ariz.) is next in seniority, but he's rarely seen at hearings. Ron Johnson (R-Wis.) and Rob Portman (R-Ohio) are more active in the government oversight activities of the committee, and one of them might be a more likely candidate.
Coburn joins a growing group of lawmakers announcing their departures. Reps. Buck McKeon (R-Calif.), chairman of the House Armed Services Committee, Jim Moran (D-Va.), whose district is home to a concentration of federal workers, and George Miller (D-Calif.), who has served 20 terms, are among those who have announced retirements this week.

Balok's species

Balok's species were a humanoid race from the Alpha or Beta Quadrant and members of the First Federation. In their initial appearance to the crew of the USS Enterprise, Balok, a member of this species, appeared to be a bluish, cat-eyed alien. In his true form, he resembled a Human child.
Members of Balok's species were small, about the height of a Human child, and usually bald, with hair mainly on their eyebrows. Their ears were different from Humans, shaped similarly to that of Vulcans, except they were smaller and had a more flat point on top. (TOS: "The Corbomite Maneuver")
In a development memo of "The Corbomite Maneuver" research notes from Kellam de Forest to Gene Roddenberry on 9 May 1966, de Forest twice referred to Balok's species as "Fesarian", in reference to their space craft. However, that species name wasn't included in the final draft nor the second revised final draft of the script (dated 3 May and 20 May 1966, respectively).
Balok's species was referred to as "Fesarian" in the Cold Equations novel Silent Weapons.

A recent surge of low-magnitude earthquakes in Oklahoma probably is the result of the underground disposal of vast quantities of wastewater generated by oil and gas extraction, according to a new study published today in the journal Science.
The researchers also calculated that four of the highest-volume wells in Oklahoma are capable of triggering ~20% of recent central U.S. quakes, and found that such induced quakes could potentially occur more than 30 km from the well.
The Cornell geophysics professor who led the study says the results suggest regulators and oil companies should avoid disposing of wastewater near major faults and do a better job monitoring the activity.
Among energy firms with a significant Oklahoma presence: CHK, CLR, APA, DVN, SD, EOG, MRO, OKE, OKS, GPOR, WPX, WMB, WPZ, LPI, CWEI, NFX, NGL, COG, WLL, NBL, MPO, PQ, XEC.

European Anglers Call for Tighter Controls on Salmon Farms
A resolution passed at the general assembly of the European Anglers Alliance (EAA), representing the interests of 3 million recreational anglers across 13 European nations, demands that all farmed Atlantic salmon should be produced in closed or contained farm systems.
The EAA has urged all fish farming nations across Europe to pursue rapid development towards sustainability to reduce the impact on wild salmon populations, and urges policy makers to use the 'precautionary principle' and 'polluter pays principle' to ease the transition towards more environmentally friendly and sustainable salmon farming practices.
The alliance argues that closed or contained systems, either at sea or on land, would reduce the infestation of sea lice among farmed fish, reduce the risk of farmed fish escaping into the environment and dramatically reduce the damage done by waste, pollutants and chemical residues from disease treatment entering the natural environment.
"It may come as a surprise to most people that in many rivers there are more farmed than wild salmon," said EAA secretary general Jan Kappel. "The escaped farmed fish compete with and genetically pollute our wild salmon stocks. It is well known that sea lice spread from the salmon farms and harm wild salmon stocks.
To our greatest surprise Norway has banned recreational angling in the Hardangerfjord where salmon stocks have declined due to the impact from extensive salmon farming. This doesn't make sense. The polluter should be managed before other legitimate and sustainable users like recreational anglers are denied access to what used to be healthy salmon stocks."
The EAA's comes in the wake of continued controversy over the proposed Galway Bay organic salmon farm, which if green-lighted would be the largest aquaculture facility of its kind in Europe.

Coach (NYSE:COH) reported its December quarter earnings last week and the market reacted with a 15% price drop, making Coach the worst performer on a day which saw the S&P 500 index moving steadily higher. Even though at Coach net sales and earnings grew 4% year on year, the market expected more, and focused on the US where same store sales fell 2% year on year.
This extreme market reaction to earnings misses, which we saw also with Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL) last week seems to be the result of the current high valuations of the market, where growth estimates must be met to justify the high PE multiples.
Coach is now trading at a ttm PE of around 14, no bargain by anyone's standards, but under the the market and sector average. I believe that the market reaction is overdone and Coach is a buy at this level, as growth in earnings will pick up, starting next quarter.
Coach is a retailer in the high end consumer products sector which is critically dependent on holiday season sales, so the December quarter performance, with the holiday season sales is the most important performance quarter, right?
Not so fast! Coach has been transforming the business from a US based brand into a global luxury goods brand, with a strong focus on Asia. This has been a major shift in the footprint including a rapid growth of stores in China, which now total 100 on the mainland, plus others in Hong Kong, and other regional markets with a high Chinese ethnic consumer base.
The other key international market for Coach is Japan, where economic conditions have been challenging, and the rising Japanese Yen (up around 10% yoy) saw currency impacts equivalent to 1% of global sales for the quarter. The recent strength of the Yen has been attributed to the recent Japanese QE programme, but this is not likely to be sustainable.
Coach now generates 1/3 of its sales outside US, with heavy weightings towards China and Japan. Here are CEO Lew Frankfort's comments from the earnings call.
"Moving on international sales, which today represent nearly one-third of Coach total sales rose 12% in the second quarter. As mentioned the China sales rose about 40% from the prior year. This sales growth was fueled by distribution and double-digit same-store sales growth.
Clearly, the Chinese consumer has embraced Coach, as evidenced by these results, as well as the increasing contribution of the Chinese stores to have a global sales and the extremely high repurchase intent among existing consumers."
A simple fact that stateside investors might miss is that Christmas isn't such a big deal in China and Japan. The big holiday season and gift giving period is around lunar New Year, which falls in the 1st quarter of the calendar year. At this time of year, sales of luxury branded goods hit their peak, especially in China, where gift giving is part of the business culture as well as giving gifts and money to relatives, plus its bonus paying time. The new customer base of Coach has a different seasonal spending pattern, and the impact of this with the rapid footprint expansion should lead to a strong Jan-Mar quarter sales pattern in the future.
As a frequent traveler around the region, I have witnessed the increasing footprint of Coach, which has stores in most of the major regional airports, and key high end retail outlets. As the Chinese travel peak is in January and February, coinciding with lunar New Year these outlets are particularly well placed to capitalize on the seasonal uptick in sales. Consumer sentiment in China and the rest of Asia is increasingly bullish, and this should translate into increased overall luxury goods sales.
The Bottom Line
COH is positioning extremely well to develop an international footprint, and this comes at a cost - CapEx in the last quarter was up to $61m from $31m in the 2nd quarter the prior year, and this is planned to total $250m this year, as the international store expansion continues.
The international sales growth to justify this expense is clearly in evidence, but the seasonal sales pattern in Asia will push a significant amount of this impact into the 3rd quarter earnings. In addition the men's product line will appeal to the Asian consumer, and I expect to see this product range get better traction in Asia than the U.S.
COH is in a growth phase, incurring significant expense to expand distribution, and still managing to produce a 4% increase in earnings, and consistent operating margins.
The current price level does not fully reflect the future earnings growth potential.

Censorship should be Censored by our SocietyIn todays society there is an issue of whether or not certain topics that arent fully accepted by our culture should have set restrictions on them to prevent any individuals from being offended This ideal concept of conforming everyone in a given group to accept and hold the same views has come about as a process known as censorship Censorship is defined as The change in the access status of material made by a governing authority or its representatives Such changes include exclusion restriction removal or agegrade level changesNichols This is interpreted by the majority of those in our society as censorship being the ability of someone else to determine what he or she feels is acceptable for a typical American citizen to view The federal government is currently addressing the need to censor violence explicit language and especially pornography They are only concerned with these issues because a few individuals are disappointed in the actions of their fellow human beings and they are blaming it upon all of these social movements The American public must stand up and speak their opinion in order to preserve our right to the freedom of speech and freedom of the pressPrivacy and censorship go hand in hand If our government is regulating what a person can say then they are also censoring what we can hear thus should we have censorship we will no longer have privacy Laird 35 When an individual or a group finds themselves offended by an issue there is no need to ask the government to censor something an other group has interest in they should simply find an alternative to avoid that issue Everything that has been claimed to need censoring is simply some type of expression in one form or another and our society claims to acknowlege all other beliefs The issue of censoring violence on television and in electronic video games is strongly being

Maclays Brewery
Maclay's Brewery was a Scottish brewery based in Alloa, Clackmannanshire until 2001.
In 1830, James Maclay (1801-1875) founded the brewery[1] as James Maclay, Ale, Porter, Table and India Beer Brewer of Alloa. James Maclay established himself as a brewer of great repute over the next 39 years and in 1870, James built the Thistle Brewery, which until 1999, was the home of the ales, which bore his name.
James Maclay died in 1875, leaving his two sons James and John to run the company.[2] The Fraser family, licensed grocers and spirit merchants from Dunfermline took over Maclay in December 1896 and in December of that year, the firm became a private limited company named Maclay & Company, Limited.
Maclays ales won medals at Vienna in 1894, Newcastle in 1898 and Paris in 1900.[3]
Despite the renown of their Oat Malt Stout, the change in fashion away from dark beers led to difficulties for the company in the 1990s[4] and brewing at the Thistle Brewery ceased in 1999. In 2001 the company ceased using the buildings as their office base. The Thistle brewery has since been demolished and replaced by retail units and flats. Only part of the brewery survives and is now a pub called The Old Brewery, owned by Belhaven.
On March 10, 1994, the company changed its name to Maclay Inns Limited to better reflect its current business model. The company acquired the Clockwork Beer Company in Glasgow, which now operates as the de facto Maclays brewery, brewing its own range of beers and Maclays recipes.
In 2012 Tennent Caledonian acquired a substantial minority shareholding.
On 23rd January 2015 it was announced that the company had gone into administration after failing to find a "strategic solution to the financial pressures facing the business". Administrators EY continue to operate the business whilst trying to find a buyer. The 15 pubs are reported to be trading profitably. [5]
Maclays beers are now brewed under licence by Belhaven Brewery and by Sleeman Breweries in Canada.

Election troubles in Missouri
George Will
1/24/2002 12:00:00 AM - George Will
WASHINGTON--November 7, 2000--Election Day--will forever call to mind Florida's butterfly ballots and pregnant chads. But the day was eventful in St. Louis, too. The night before, Democratic Rep. William Clay had told a Gore-Lieberman rally that a lawsuit would be filed to force the polls to stay open longer than Missouri law allows. The next afternoon such a suit was filed, claiming that minorities were having trouble voting. Clay had been prescient about those troubles--or those troubles were fictitious, and he was part of a carefully planned operation. The suit's lead plaintiff, Robert D. Odom, complained of being denied the right to vote. But someone noted that his problem might have something to do with the fact that he died in 1999. Later, Clay said, the plaintiff should have been Robert M. Odom, a Clay aide. But Odom's complaint, if there ever really was one, was vitiated when he voted that afternoon. By the time the compliant judge ordered the polls to stay open, voters were already receiving prerecorded telephone messages from Jesse Jackson saying they could vote late. Matt Blunt, Missouri's secretary of state, says that among 1,384 ballots illegally cast were at least 62 by felons, 79 by people registered at vacant lots, 68 by people who voted twice and 14 cast in the name of dead people. Missouri law says court orders can be issued to secure the vote only for registered voters who were removed from the voting rolls by mistake. Of 1,268 applications for court orders, 1,233 were improperly granted, many for people who admitted they had never registered but persuaded the court with written reasons that included ``I was late registering due to me were going through a mental disorder,'' ``I want a Dem. president,'' ``For the democratic party,'' ``I'm a busy lady w/ 7 children'' and ``Found out about Gore from my mother.'' And: ``forgot to.'' Register, that is. Amazingly few St. Louis residents forgot. Missouri Republican Sen. Kit Bond says that 247,135 of St. Louis' 258,532 voting-age residents were registered. That 96 percent registration rate was, strictly speaking, incredible. And almost one in 10 voters registered in St. Louis was registered to vote somewhere else, too. All this is pertinent to the Senate's consideration, scheduled for this week, of an election reform bill born partly from Bond's fury about St. Louis' irregularities. There has been much talk about the putative problem of ``exclusion,'' making much of the myth of widespread intimidation and obstruction of black voters in Florida. Bond insists on addressing the real problem of excessive inclusion--of fraudulent votes. Four of the bill's provisions are particularly notable: --Statewide registration to make it more difficult for persons to be registered in several places, and more difficult for local political organizations to register noncitizens or nonexistent people. --A requirement that when a person registers under provisions of the ``motor-voter'' law--registers when getting a drivers license--the registration card will at least ask if the person is a citizen, and will inform noncitizens that they may not register. The fact that these small, common-sensical requirements have not existed is itself telling. --Provisional voting to allow a person not on the voting rolls to cast a vote which will be counted if it can be proved that a clerical error kept the person's name off the rolls. --A bipartisan Election Administration Commission to help states and localities comply with federal law and other matters. We have made some progress since a year ago. However, Florida's Legislature has drawn censorious squints from some exquisitely sensitive civil rights lobbyists who are alarmed by a new law that requires posting at polling stations a list of ``responsibilities'' of voters. For example, a voter should: ``Keep his or her voter address current''; ``Bring proper identification to the polling station''; ``Know how to operate voting equipment properly''; ``Ask questions when confused''; ``Check his or her completed ballot for accuracy.'' In this rights-obsessed era, talk of responsibilities is unusual. But not unconstitutional, as critics imply when they compare the posting of ``voter's responsibilities'' to the long-proscribed literacy tests and poll taxes that were designed to adversely affect minorities. Some jurisdictions, perhaps disproportionately where minorities comprise majorities, use antiquated voting technologies that are unacceptably unreliable in recording the political choices of voters who exercise reasonable diligence in attempting to record their choices. But it is not a civil rights violation to say that such diligence is a civic duty.

I saved buying my monthly supply of vitamins on iherb.com rather than buying at W*** Foods. I even saved on taxes so it was literally like getting one of my vitamins free! I only wish I could make it a subscription of some sort so they'd automatically send my monthly supply, but now I'm getting greedy! :D Love iherb.com, would recommend to everyone!

These probiotics work extremely well. I have taken others without the entercoating these offer and they were useless. These have a protective coating that allows the probiotics from being destroyed by stomach acids before it reaches your intestines. The result can make a huge difference in your health. A healthy intestines allows it to absorb the nutrients from the food you eat and allowing your body to be much healthier. Hard part is in sticking to the healthy eating. Product is easy to store, easy to swallow, and can be taken anywhere. Love it.
