Biblio-Tech: Today's Library
You might not recognize today's Ithaca College Library in its Digital Age transformation. By Sherrie Negrea
As a new professor at Ithaca College in 1990, Mary DePalma would spend hours in the library combing through stacks of the journal Psychological Abstracts for an article relative to her research. Once she would find the citation, chances were that the library would not have the journal, so she would need to submit an interlibrary loan request. Two weeks later, a photocopy of the article would arrive, and DePalma would walk over to the Gannett Center to retrieve it.
Fast-forward to 2009: In the world of online scholarly databases, DePalma, a psychology professor, researches a new topic by logging onto the library's website from her office in Williams Hall. Most often, she locates the article she wants from among dozens of databases and prints it out right at her desk. If the library doesn't have it, a PDF of the article is e-mailed to her via interlibrary loan that very day or the next.
"What used to take three weeks now will likely take 10 minutes to 24 hours," says DePalma, who specializes in social motivation and health psychology. "It's faster and more complete."
In the past two decades the Ithaca College Library has been transformed from a repository of books and multimedia materials into a digital learning laboratory offering instant messaging reference services, collaborative study spaces equipped with 55 computers, 20 wireless laptops, and 100 research databases.
Not only has the library moved aggressively into the digital age, but it has also become an intellectual hub on campus, bringing together students and faculty from diverse departments.
"I see it as the heart and the soul and the entire brain of the campus," says Patricia Zimmermann, a professor of cinema, photography, and media arts, who recalls visiting the library when she was first hired in 1981 and often finding it empty. "It is the place where people come together to investigate new ideas and new work."
Energetic Leader
The restructuring of the library, now often packed with students on weeknights until 2:00 a.m., is largely the work of Lisabeth "Lis" Chabot, who was hired in 2003 as the College librarian. After 10 years as the library director at Mary Baldwin College in Staunton, Virginia, Chabot arrived on the Ithaca campus with a motto: "A good library is one that is used."
That did not mean only physical use, because in Chabot's lexicon online, or virtual, use is just as significant as people walking in the door.
Under her tenure the website has become in some ways a surrogate for the physical library, making it the central "discovery portal," as she puts it, for the library's services and resources. Soon after being hired, Chabot restructured the library staff, replacing two administrative positions with a Web services librarian, who updates the large and growing website, and an electronic resources librarian, who manages database contracts and technical troubleshooting.
Website upgrades have already had a substantial impact: The number of visits to the site increased from 437,000 in 2006 to 851,000 in 2007.
The changes were made not merely to keep pace with technology, as Chabot points out, since the distinction between "digital natives" and "digital immigrants" is becoming less pronounced. While today's students are obviously "digital natives," faculty are increasingly adept in the digital universe.
"A lot of this is related to technology, but a lot of it is related to this generation of users and the way in which they learn and the way in which our current generation of faculty teaches," Chabot says. "It's how they engage students actively in learning. Newer faculty have come through graduate school using these same technologies, resources, and services."
Creative Resourcing
Creating a high-tech library, however, has not come without fiscal challenges, as costs for electronic resources continue to climb at a time when Ithaca College has been trimming expenses to compensate for a decline in both its endowment and its freshmen enrollment.
After the fall semester started, department heads at the College were asked to make cuts to their current operating budgets, and more reductions are coming. To address the fiscal shortfall, the library delayed filling a staff position, canceled some print journals that are available electronically, and began planning for a likely reduction in materials purchasing for next year.
"Inflation in scholarly materials over the last 30 years has run about six times the general inflation rate," Chabot points out. While new scholarly books cost an average of $75, the current databases run between $1,000 and $150,000 annually.
Besides enhancing the website and online resources, Chabot instituted other changes that have made the library more inviting to students. She added 17.5 hours to the library's schedule, opening the doors a half hour earlier and extending closing until 2:00 a.m. Sundays through Thursdays. In response to student requests, weekend hours were also expanded by two hours to 10:00 p.m. on Fridays and Saturdays, and by opening two hours earlier on Sundays, at 10:00 a.m.
Serenity and Collaborative Spaces
At noontime on weekdays, the library is jammed with students eating sandwiches (when vending machines were installed in 2004, the library relaxed a no-food-and-drink policy) while browsing the Internet, writing papers, or working with classmates in one of several spaces designed for collaboration, like that on the top floor, a gift of the class of 2005.
The first floor of the library, in fact, has been redesigned to accommodate students assigned to group projects, with wireless laptop access plus fixed computers stationed around large round tables.
At the end of the fall semester, Krista Irwin '10, a politics major from Tucson, Arizona, and Dan Frasca '09, a legal studies major from Bohemia, New York, were hunched over computers on the library's first floor, working on a group PowerPoint presentation for their class, The Supreme Court in U.S. Politics. "It's a good place to work," says Irwin, who lives off campus and visits the library every day. "There are enough places where you can work in a group or by yourself."
One floor above them, senior Kim Heinle, a Spanish major, was watching a DVD on Mexican immigration to the United States for her Latin American Culture through Literature class. Though she frequents the library to research and write papers and finds the atmosphere "quiet, relaxing, and social," Heinle admits that in her four years at IC she has never once checked out a book. "I find more online," she says. "It's easier to access journals and articles online."
Online Rules
The balance between paper and online materials has been incrementally tipping toward the latter over the past decade. Expenditures for electronic resources increased from 18 percent of the library's budget in 2001 to 58 percent last year.
One reason for the shift was duplication; many of the journals the library was receiving in print were also accessible in full-text format online. When faculty members, particularly those in the sciences, said they preferred to read the journals online, the print subscriptions were moved to online access. With individual subscriptions and full-text databases, the library now provides access to 44,823 online journals.
"With the advent of online databases, I have everything I need," says DePalma, who no longer has any complaints about the library's operations. "I can't imagine anything that someone else had that I couldn't have access to, at least in terms of primary resources."
Michael Haaf '94, an associate professor and chair of the chemistry department, agrees that the most significant change in the library has been the transition from paper to electronic journals. "I remember as a graduate student when I first started going through a lot of chemical abstract journals searching hours for a piece of paper," recalls Haaf, who earned his doctorate at the University of Wisconsin–Madison. "Now with search engines and database searching, the same kinds of searches can be done in minutes."
In chemistry, as in many disciplines, peer-reviewed journal articles in which new science is reported are indispensible for both faculty and students. They do not come cheaply, however.
One chemistry journal, Tetrahedon, alone would cost the library $37,000 annually for an online subscription. Yet because the Ithaca library joined a group contract with other private colleges and universities in New York, it gained access to the journal through the expansive ScienceDirect database. As a result, the library now provides access to 1,000 online scientific journals, compared to 100 print journal subscriptions before it participated in the contract.
Digital Books
Not only can students read journals online, but they can now also search, view, and download sections of entire books via the library's website. Added three years ago, a database called ebrary offers students access to more than 41,000 electronic books that can be printed out in batches of up to 40 pages per search. The entire collection can be searched for a specific topic, and users can highlight specific passages to save on their computers. The database offers unlimited, simultaneous user access, which means that several users in the same class, for example, can read an ebrary book at the same time from multiple locations.
"More professors are assigning e-books for course readings," points out health services librarian Lee Smigiel, who has worked at IC since 1990. "Generally students don't want the whole book. They want a chapter. This way, they can just get what they need." The database provides access at about 34 cents per book, while freeing up the shelf space that would have been needed to accommodate a diverse collection of titles and avoiding the substantial purchase price for the equivalent print volumes.
One professor who has assigned ebrary books is Howard Kalman, an associate professor of strategic communications. He began using the database when students complained about a $65 computer manual that was a required text for his class. Since computer manuals generally become outdated quickly, the students could not use the book after completing the course.
Though ebrary offers a way to reduce course material costs, Kalman admits it does have its limitations. "When you read material online, after a while it tends to be a little more straining, particularly for older learners in the graduate programs. Some students read online, and other students want to print [things out] and have something to refer to. This gives them an option."
Subject-Expert Staff
Another focus for Chabot has been strengthening the relationships between librarians and faculty. Half the 14 staff librarians are now assigned to provide instruction and develop collections for particular academic subjects, ranging from communications to fine arts.
To help students with their research, the Web services librarian, Andrew Darby, developed SubjectsPlus, an online portal that links databases, websites, encyclopedias, and other resources in specific subject areas. Previously, students had to search the library's entire database collection to find information for research projects.
"This has eliminated the big initial question for students, which is, 'Where should I start?'," says Chabot. In collaboration with faculty in the School of Music, the library also digitizes musical selections from its extensive CD collection and provides 24/7 password access to them for students in specific music courses.
Faculty members now team up with librarians to teach research methods, often bringing their classes to the Gannett Center's instruction room or inviting the librarians to their own classrooms. The instruction covers not only accessing information, evaluating sources, and developing research strategies, but also using library resources and services from any computer on campus or at home.
"The library administration has been a tremendous help for our students to acquire cutting-edge information and to help us bring some of the electronically accessible material to our classes," says Abraham Mulugetta, a professor of business administration who has taught at IC for 24 years. Among the business databases the library has recently added are Morningstar, a company that evaluates mutual funds; Value Line, an investment research service; and StockVal, which analyzes specific stocks.
Though more of the library's resources have shifted online, circulation continues to rise, an indicator that students and faculty still rely on books, music scores, and multimedia materials. Over the past five years circulation has jumped 36 percent, from 89,000 in the 2002–3 academic year to 121,214 last year. Chabot notes that IC's library is a member of an affinity group of 33 similar-sized colleges, and for the past two years it has ranked number one among this group in circulation.
Multimedia Heaven
One factor driving the circulation increase is the popularity of the library's collection of 11,200 DVDs, videocassettes, and films, which support the film studies programs in the Roy H. Park School of Communications.
Since the 1997 inception of the Finger Lakes Environmental Film Festival (FLEFF), which is now held at IC every spring, the library has purchased 150 DVDs and videocassettes on a variety of environmental and related issues, including indigenous works from countries around the world.
"Ithaca College's library, in my field, is known as having one of the most substantial and most cutting-edge collections of film and media anywhere in the United States," says Zimmerman, who codirects FLEFF. "A lot of the graduate students who are teaching with me are just amazed at the resources we have, because they don't have this at other universities."
Even faculty who come to Ithaca after having earned their doctorates from large research universities say they are surprised at the level of resources IC's library provides. "For a comprehensive college of this size, I think Ithaca has a phenomenal resource in the library," says Raj Subramaniam, an associate professor of health promotion and physical education. "I consider it to be one of the top-notch libraries when comparing smaller institutions."

Doctors and nurses are calling for the government to urgently improve hospital security after a vicious attack at Western Hospital left a leading surgeon battling life-threatening injuries.
The attack has also highlighted the Victorian government's failure to introduce tougher penalties for attacks on paramedics and emergency department staff despite repeated promises to change laws since 2012.
Head of neurosurgery at Western Hospital Michael Wong remains in a serious but stable condition in the hospital's intensive care unit today after sustaining multiple stab wounds to various parts of his body during the attack on Tuesday morning.
A hospital spokeswoman said Dr Wong's family rushed to be with him after the assault, which occurred while the 43-year-old was walking through the hospital foyer on his way into work about 8:30am on Tuesday.
Kareem Al-Salami, 48, of Sunshine North, was arrested shortly after the incident and has been charged with the attempted murder of Dr Wong.
It is unclear if the two know each other or what the motive could have been, however Kareem Al-Salami's lawyer told the Melbourne Magistrates Court on Tuesday that his client was taking various medications and that he was concerned about his client's mental wellbeing.
The assault has sparked fierce criticism of the Victorian government's response to repeated calls from doctors and nurses to improve security in hospitals.
In the lead-up to the 2010 election, the Coalition promised to spend $21 million on putting armed guards in hospitals but when the policy faced criticism, a parliamentary inquiry was held in 2011 to look at alternative options.
Following the inquiry, the government promised to spend $21 million on other measures to improve security in hospitals, but has so far only committed $5.8 million over four years to improve training and install duress alarms in some wards.
In 2012, Attorney-General Robert Clark said the Victorian Coalition government would legislate for longer sentences for people who attack paramedics and emergency department workers in hospitals but so far, no legislation has been introduced. Even if the laws had been introduced, they may not have helped Dr Wong because he did not routinely work in the emergency department and he was not there when the attack occurred.
Following the horrific attack, the Australian Medical Association, the Australian Nursing and Midwifery Association, the Australasian College for Emergency Medicine and the Victorian Emergency Physicians Association said more needed to be done to protect health workers against violence which is occurring regularly in Victoria's crowded hospitals.
Australian Medical Association Victoria president Stephen Parnis, who has previously called for more CCTV cameras in hospitals, and 24-hour guards, said the incident was an example of the "real dangers that hospital and healthcare workers face".
Our political leaders must stop ignoring this horrific violence and take immediate action to make hospitals safe.
Dr Parnis said health workers were entitled to feel safe at work and called on the state government to introduce promised legislation that would increase penalties for violent crimes committed against health workers.
He said there had been three inquiries into hospital safety in recent years in Victoria yet little had been done.
A spokesman for Victorian Health Minister David Davis said an advisory committee has been established to provide advice and oversight on initiatives and that the Minister for Health and the Attorney-General had met with the AMA and had "constructive discussions about potential responses, including possible legislative responses".
Australian Nursing and Midwifery Federation state secretary Lisa Fitzpatrick said she was extremely concerned "but unfortunately not surprised" by the attack.
"Those who work in hospitals, particularly those in the frontline - nurses, midwives and doctors - are being punched, hit, kicked, bitten, choked, knocked unconscious and threatened and attacked with weapons every day.
"It would not be tolerated in an office or any other workplace and it should not be tolerated in a hospital. Our political leaders must stop ignoring this horrific violence and take immediate action to make hospitals safe," she said.
Victorian chairman of the Australasian College for Emergency Medicine, Dr Simon Judkins, said problems of violence were not limited to any one hospital or geographical area.
"Particularly in a public hospital [emergency department]... we do deal with a large proportion of disenfranchised, mentally ill, drug-affected patients who can't get care anywhere else," he said.
"We often deal with patients who the police don't want to take to the cells because they are psychologically disturbed so they come to the ED and that can be quite scary for our staff in the early hours of the morning.
"I think this sort of thing could happen in any ED anywhere. We have an open door access policy."
Dr Judkins said it was possible that no security measures could have prevented the attack on Dr Wong, but greater efforts were needed to protect staff in hospitals against violence.
He said problems included low staffing levels overnight in emergency departments and shift workers returning to their cars through dark carparks without any security.
"No matter what happens there will still be incidents like this but it does raise concerns... No other profession would put up with this. People get abused, punched, pushed and threatened... We expect that's going to happen and we shouldn't, we should expect to feel safe in our workplace."
Victorian Emergency Physicians Association president Allan Whitehead said the state government needed to provide more funding to enhance security, particularly for smaller hospitals with emergency departments that did not have adequate security.

Xero sees 80% revenue growth this year, Intuit 'spooked', says Drury
By Pattrick Smellie
Jul. 23 (BusinessDesk) - Cloud accounting software firm Xero updated shareholders at the annual meeting with a forecast of 80 percent revenue growth in the current financial year in constant dollar terms, and founder chief executive Rod Drury danged an American stock market listing as being on the cards once the company passes through the US$100 million annual revenue mark.
Drury declined to put an exact dollar figure on that forecast increase, but the company turned over $70.1 million last year, implying turnover in New Zealand dollars in the current financial year of around $126 million.
"We should be through a US hundred million trailing revenue and I think that puts you in the window for doing a US IPO if we choose to," he told BusinessDesk, although he told the meeting there would be no float in the current financial year.
The exact timing of a US IPO would depend on market conditions, said both Drury and incoming chairman and former chief financial officer at US giants Microsoft and General Motors, Chris Liddell. Drury talked up the significance of the company's decision to raise $180 million last year at a time when markets were ripe for such an offering, giving the company headroom and flexibility over timing of a US listing.
Xero shares fell slightly in trading on the NZX today, down 1.7 percent to $23.50, having pushed above $45 per share in February.
"We don't control the share price," Drury told the meeting in response to questions. "We have seen a rerating of Software as a Service companies. The good thing is we raised our money last year."
Reacting in part to a Fairfax Media report questioning Xero's momentum in the US, where it faces a battle with the incumbent accounting software provider Intuit, Drury belaboured not only a belief that Xero's cloud-based product suite is outgunning Intuit's attempts to move into the cloud, but also that the company will benefit from establishing strong positions in the Australian and UK markets before embarking on the US.
"The success of the company's going to be international, it's not just the US," Liddell told BusinessDesk after the meeting. "In terms of the US, it's just a great product. It's not going to happen immediately and, sure, Intuit's a formidable, large company in the US, but it's important to recognise that of something like 30 or 40 million small, medium businesses in the US, Intuit's customer base is five million.
"There's 35 million who do something else, whether it's Excel spreadsheets or pieces or paper or localised software, so it's not only competing with Intuit, you're competing for people who've never had software before."
Drury said after the meeting the company's cost of customer acquisition had not changed significantly in any of its markets, including the US, since figures were disclosed in the latest annual report, despite reports of Intuit discounting its fees to below Xero's.
The US market differs from New Zealand, Australia and the UK, where a route to market has been built through accountants, who are used by around 70 percent of SME's in each of those markets. In the US, only around 30 percent of small and medium-sized businesses used an accountant.
"A lot of people ask us about the US," said Drury. "Because we've got Australia and the UK really firing now, we can spend some time on it. We can take time. It'll take two or three years. We've got to build a brand. I think what we've learnt is we've got to build a direct business so we can go direct to small business and as they come on, they should tell their accountants and that should accelerate accountants further."
He expected customer acquisition costs to "trend down quite quickly as the (US) market matures" after an early heavy spend on the US management and marketing team, led by US chief executive Peter Karpas, formerly general manager for PayPal's North American small and medium enterprise business, and before that chief markleting and product management officer at Intuit.
Drury also told the meeting he believed Intuit was on the wrong track trying to replicate Xero's open software eco-system approach, which sees partnerships that build new applications onto the Xero platform, by buying out eco-system partners.
"Intuit is spooked," he told the meeting. "Most of the things they do now are responses to us."
It was trying to convert five million customers using a desktop software product onto a repurposed cloud offering, "which is not really a great product."
"Maybe in time it will be," said Drury, but both Microsoft and Apple had struggled to repurpose legacy products for cloud applications, whereas Xero "has the capital and we've already beaten them (Intuit) in three countries."
The meeting was attended by around 250 shareholders, who waved through a series of director remuneration arrangements, which raised the fee pool for directors by $350,000 to $800,000 and share allocations to both Liddell and another heavyweight US-based newcomer to the board, Bill Veghte, who told shareholders of a career in which he had developed the first versions of Microsoft Office and Xbox and now heads up Hewlett Packett's US$28 billion per year enterprise group.

With all the hype surrounding Disney's "Frozen," some are questioning if the franchise's newest flick is as good as people say it is. With its constant witty wisecracks that leave the audience laughing and its brilliant original compositions, I will be the first to tell you that this movie is all they say it is and more.
The story centers around a lovable princess named Anna (voiced by Kristen Bell) and her sister, Elsa (voiced by Idina Menzel), who has power over snow and ice. They have grown up isolated in a castle after Anna's childhood brush with death. Elsa's powers have been kept secret from everyone, including Anna, and when they are accidentally exposed at her coronation, she runs away, freezing the kingdom of Arendelle in an eternal winter. Anna embarks on a journey to find her sister and bring back summer, and meets a colorful cast of characters along the way. Kristoff (voiced by Jonathan Groff) and his reindeer Sven balance out Anna's optimism. Olaf (voiced by Josh Gad) is an adorable snowman who is obsessed with summer. With such a charming cast of characters, it's hard not to fall in love with the movie.
The script is very well written and filled with jokes that not only have the children giggling, but their parents as well. The screenwriters were incredibly clever in weaving in plenty of jokes to engage the whole theater, and the animators did a fantastic job bringing the scenes to life.
No detail was left out; each snowflake had its own individual pattern, and the character's expressions convey exactly what they're feeling. The animation is beautifully constructed, allowing the audience to step into a new world.
Original scores fill this Disney film, but it's more than just your average musical. The songs are as clever as the dialogue, keeping the audience engaged throughout the movie, and both Bell and Menzel produce beautiful vocals, not that anyone would expect anything less from a cast of Broadway greats.
Once you watch this movie, you'll begin to play the soundtrack on repeat and sing the songs while walking around campus.
"Frozen," while good enough before any twists and turns, also is the most unpredictable Disney movie I've ever seen. Almost every children's movie follows a direct pattern; they're completely predictable. However, with this tale, Disney creates a movie with an incredible twist ending that will have the whole audience holding their breath.
I think it's safe to say that audiences everywhere will love Disney's newest animated adventure, regardless of age or gender. Disney was spot on with this one, giving us a story that will be cherished for ages. Despite "Frozen's" chilly title, you'll leave the theater with a warm heart.

Posted on Wednesday 18th of September 2013
That's an odd title I have chosen, I could change it but I've started typing now and there are far more important things afoot on this post. If you are into whisky then I suspect you will, like me, take pleasure in the variety it offers, the peaks and troughs, the oddities, surprises and the occasionally sublime. Every now and then good fortune seems to come around in the form of an incredibly memorable whisky. Whisky can be memorable for all kinds of things, it's devastating hideousness, it's palpitation inducing beauty, the moment it captures, the company it is shared with or the memory it evokes. Emotion of some sort is inevitably wedded to these most memorable of drinking occasions. I've had technically sublime drams that just can't quite match the slightly unbalanced yet wildly loveable personalities of other more unusual whiskies. Today we'll have a few drams that, for me, are the epitome of what whisky is all about and why I love it. They stand for me as monuments to just how great, thrilling, delicious, emotional and truly valuable whisky can be. These whiskies originate with my friend and geek in law Phil, who recently purchased a rather epic stash of old bottles at a country house sale in Cornwall. The sale included the contents of the old cellar, amongst the rather stunning array of old Madeiras and wines from Berry Brothers there was also a stack of old whiskies, not to mention the odd bottle of sherry and rum as well. Phil dutifully sold one of his livers and bought all the spirits. Fast forward about a month and we sit during a quiet night at the bar in Dornoch Castle Hotel, the place is run by Phil and his brother Simon. If you're a regular on facebook you may know them as the 'Whisky Collector', they are notable for their habit of unashamedly, and rather blatantly, flaunting every single old bottle of whisky that passes their way on the Malt Manaics page as well as their own. Not to mention the occasional bit of trolling on the official Macallan page, but the less said about that the better. Not all bottles have been opened so far and no doubt more notes will appear here as time passes and these bottles are opened, for now here are notes for the first bottles. Apologies in advance for any overtly sentimental gushing or excessive maltporn, you wish to have that brigade thing of Serge's on standby…
Berry Brothers Whisky/Calvados/Armagnac/Rum??? Bottled circa 1920s. Driven cork. No label. Level was in the neck.
This was the first bottle we opened. At first I felt it was a youngish blend that had benefitted heavily from such a length of time in the bottle. However, when we tasted them with our good friend Emmanuel from the Auld Alliance in Singapore who happened to be visiting Scotland a couple of weeks ago, he mentioned that it may well be an old Calvados or some other similar wood aged spirit. So, the upshot is…we don't know exactly what this is, not useful but it should make for an interesting tasting, lets see what gives with a fresh palate and open mind….
Colour: Orangey gold
Nose: I just cannot get this idea of Calvados out of my head now, the nose is laced with apples at first, when I had originally tried this we noted that there was a distinct green appley note, however I took this as a sign of a more pronounced grain component which is often typical. Now that the spirit has had time to breathe however this apple note is far more elegant and complex, notes of aged cider, baked apples in brown sugar then touches of nutmeg, demerara (could it be a rum?) a gentle but pronounced medicinal quality, like tiny notes of mercurochrome, germoline and metal polish. Goes on with beautiful notes of figs, raisins, coal fires, very delicate wax, wet leaves, hessian and pine resin with touches of camphor and lamp oil. I think we've ruled out rum. What a beautiful nose, so delicate but also balanced and wonderfully complex.
Palate: It's amazing how much bite there is after almost a century. I think the proof is in the palate with this one, straight away we there are big, really biting notes of russet apples, demerara rum, brown bread, cinnamon, pear cider, touches of animal skins and leather with a very gentle meatiness. Seems to develop a hint of cardboard but then moves away and gets very minty and zingy with notes of blood orange, eucalyptus and citrus peel. Now a little dusty, waxy and metallic, typical OBE notes but all perfectly formed and present in a way that really informs and adds to the overall quality. This would probably have been quite a basic spirit when it was bottled, there is not a huge wood influence. Even though we know glass ageing softens woodiness this really does still bear the hallmarks of its inherent youth. Gets slightly salty and sharp with more apple peelings and touches of cinnamon.
Finish: Excellent length for such an ancient and fragile spirit. Leafy, drying, many apple notes, more stewed raisin notes, moss, wet earth, tcp and touches of mint.
Comments: My vote is with Calvados to be honest. The bite of the spirit on the palate is really reminiscent of a good youngish Calvados and those apple notes that rear their heads all over the place also point towards such a conclusion. Almost certainly no way to know for sure but I also don't really care, the fragile beauty and elegance of this spirit is what really shines out. It's amazing how you can sort of tell what parts were really enhanced by bottle ageing. Anyway, heartbreaking old stuff, and that was just the start, it's about to get even worse…
Score: 91/100
Berry Brother's & Co. Very Old Scotch Whisky. Dumpy bottle. Circa 1914. Driven cork. Label destroyed. Level was in the neck.
This was the second bottle we opened. Berry Brother's did not add the 'Rudd' part of their name until after 1914, prior to that it was Berry Bros & Co, so the label gives a good indication that this is indeed a very old high end whisky bottled around the time of the First World War. That would suggest high malt content blend or straight vatted malt distilled probably around the late 1880s/early 1890s. I know I know…I'm sorry.
Colour: Gold
Nose: Oh dear, where to begin… I suppose the first impression is a big canvas of wax, hessian, various oils, farmyard notes, camphor, wet earth, coal, clay, dusty phenols, old, metallic peat notes with tiny glimmers of green fruits in the background. These simmering peat qualities are actually reminiscent of a very old Ardbeg in some ways, like a lightly peated 60s Ardbeg perhaps. Goes on with really deft medical touches, linseed oil, tcp, bandages, iodine, old rope, metal polish and minerals. Ancient herbal liqueurs, a really old juane chartreuse, touches of caraway and orange bitters. It's a heartbreaking nose to be honest with you, I should really stop writing…
Palate: Fat, glycerol peat, hay, straw, dust, metal polish, a ton of wax, coal, peat embers, muesli, wet grains, smoked fish like kippers and then little squeezes of lemon juice and wet pebbles. You can feel it has softened in the bottle but the presence, warmth and weight of this stuff in the mouth is really quite incredible, the closest thing I can compare it to would be the old 1930s White Horse or the 1940s Mackie's. Other than that there's not much to compare this stuff to, it's a style even further removed from what we would ordinarily call 'old style'. So beautiful. Goes on with touches of mint, jasmine, oriental spices and big orange liqueur notes. Still beautifully biting.
Finish: Long, metallic, minty, waxy, sweetly phenolic and resinous with this beautifully fat but complex peat quality, it's a style of peat really completely extinct in any modern whisky of the last 50 years I'd say. Dried herbs, cured meat, some gentle spices and waxy old mineral notes in the end.
Comments: What can you really say about such Whisky. This is how they made them in the late 19th century I suppose. I couldn't tell you if it was a blend or a straight malt, my feeling is that it is probably a high malt content blend but again, who cares, the complexity, elegance and mesmeric flavour profile are in another stratosphere from most of today's malts. Hard to really find enough ways to describe the beauty and privilege that lies in tasting such ancient whisky. No doubt the +/-100 years in bottle helped it along but it's remarkable how well intact it is.
Score: 94/100
Berry's Fine Old Scotch Whisky. Possibly All Malt? Circa 1914. Driven cork. Level top shoulder but had leaked in transit the day before.
This one was a latecomer thanks to a mistake by the auction house and upon arrival it was apparent that it had leaked slightly so we dutifully shouldered the burden of opening it. (I know, I'm such a git) This is the one that is most likely to be 100% malt, although whether single or vatted? Who knows? The label fragment it still bears is almost identical in style to another Berry Bros & Co bottle we found from another auction so once again it dates this bottle to around 1914.
Colour: Light gold
Nose: The first impression is just a big fat nostril full of peat oil, pine resin and camphor. This fleshes out quite quickly into really fresh mint leaf, wet earth, dunnage, crystallised fruits, marzipan, touches of air freshener but in a really good way. Loads of oils, wax, old polished furniture, old books, leather, caraway liqueur, dried herbs, old chartreuse, coal fires and a little crusty salty note. Absolutely sublime and quite different to the others in many ways, this is much richer, fatter and more luxurious in its resilient, oily peat qualities. This certainly 'feels' more like a malt. There are no notes that suggest any grain component. These huge resinous touches are just astounding quite frankly. Also notes of fresh paint, a lovely mineral quality and hessian, butter and flints.
Palate: Huge attack, fat, farmy and full of greasy, oily phenols, camphor, olive oil, caraway, muesli. Touches of wax jackets, motor oil, leather, wood spice, wax, paraffin, tcp, some raisins, more mint, mentholated toothpaste, Madeira cake, liquorice and more ancient herbal liqueur notes. Quite bewilderingly beautiful. Metal polish, old coins, touches of OBE again but in the most beautiful way, a wonderfully complex and subdivided peat flavour. Some resinous citrus fruits, nervous notes of wildflowers, some grass, crushed coriander seeds and a little pancetta. This is huge, bold and completely different whisky, unlike anything I think I've ever tasted.
Finish: Herbal, resinous, waxy, long, minty, phenolic, peaty, thick, syrupy and full of honey, yellow flowers, chamomile tea, coal smoke and minerals. Beautiful.
Comments: I think this must be a malt, probably a vatted malt as would have been popular at the time but who knows. It's not like any whisky I've ever tried before, the closest semblance of character lies in these other Berry's bottlings but they too are of a truly ancient time. The only other thing that springs to mind is the old Lagavulin 12yo Spring Cap 1958 rotation. Not because they taste similar but because they are both so utterly different from any other whisky I could try. What a wonderful whisky and a unique privilege.
Score: 94/100
Who wants to stop after that…? Not me, lets have something else from a looooong time ago. We opened this one very recently as well.
Greer's OVH blended whisky circa 1930. No strength or capacity stated. Stopper cork.
This was part of a parcel of 12 bottles we acquired as part of our wee drinking cabal known as the 'Glug Glug Club' (yes we know we're cool). The company that produced this owned St Magdalene distillery at the time and it is most likely that this was the constituent malt for this blend.
Colour: Gold
Nose: Another sublimely antique cocktail of metal polish, old resinous peat, apple peelings, wax, crystalised fruits, smoked tea, minerals and lemon oil. Goes on with al the usual suspects of hessian, dried herbs, wild mushrooms, dunnage, kreel nets, tar and menthol. More compact and focused than the others perhaps hinting at a little more design in its construction maybe. It certainly feels more 'blended' although the grain component is incredibly quiet, it must have had a significantly high malt content. Or the 80 or so years in bottle have brought all the malt components to the fore and kind of subdued the harsher angles, who knows… It's beautiful regardless.
Palate: Once again great weight and attack on the palate, their is a kind of dusty green apple not at the back which suggest the grain component is a little louder on the palate but for the most part its more of these wonderfully nervous notes of metal, wax, peat oils, drying phenols, minerals, pine resin, barley sugar, dried mint leaf, all kinds of other herbs, cereals and butter. Still very fat and weighty if a little lighter than some of the others. Develops notes of tincture and iodine, the peat is very distinct in this one. White fruits and touches of rapeseed oil now as well.
Finish: Not as long as some of these magnificent Berry's bottlings but still beautifully resinous, gravelly, mineral, peaty, oily and even with touches of green fruits still after all these years. Incredible stuff.
Comments: What's to say? Another stunning old blend. It's nice to think that there was a fair old dollop of St Magdalene in this one. It's amazing how great these old bottles can be if you get one with a decent level.
Score: 91/100
I should point out that all these drams can be tried by the glass at the bar in Dornoch Castle Hotel. Phil and Simon are running a 'Whisky Deal For Whisky People' this winter if you fancy snuggling up in a great Scottish whisky bar this winter. Apparently they have a few hundred bottles that need drinking up and they're flogging them off at knock down prices. I will probably be along to hoover a few up at some point.
That's probably enough madness for today. But we'll return to the 19th century very soon…

Two men have been arrested in connection with the murder of a farmer near Vryheid, KwaZulu-Natal police said.
"The suspects, aged 28 and 43 years old, were arrested on Wednesday night in Mpumalanga," Captain Thulani Zwane said.
Gert Uys, 55, was shot and killed in his farmhouse at Swart-Mfolozi on July 31.
He was killed as he was preparing to pay his employees.
Zwane said the men took R18,000 and a revolver. They fled the scene in the farmer's Toyota Land Cruiser vehicle, which was later found abandoned on a gravel road.
Two firearms were recovered during the arrest and would be sent for ballistic tests.
The two are due to appear in the Vryheid Magistrate's Court on Friday.

One day, just for the heck of it, Empedocles poked his head through the fabric of space/time.
Afterward, he went to his local Starbucks, and while ordering a "Tall Frappucino," -- which is actually the tiniest size -- he tried to make small talk with the cashier.
"The nature of God is a circle of which the center is everywhere and the circumference is nowhere," he said with a smile.
The resulting mess got so deep that they had to close the place...
*** *** ***
Mr. Bacon produced a similar scene when he gave a candid reply to a barrista's simple question about his weekend plans.
He might as well have said, "I'm Superman, and I'm flying home to Krypton for the Memorial Day Weekend."
Of course, we Loopsters know that Mr. Bacon is indeed Superman, but it's alarming to see him spill the beans to mere mortals in his local Starbucks.
He should have known better. Clearly the notion of running 50 kilometers, however far that might happen to be, was destined to produce bewildered stares or even invite outright scorn and derision.
"Hey, Betty, this scrawny little nerd claims he's gonna run over 10 miles this weekend!"
Haven't we all, as runners, experienced the same thing, to one degree or another?
I know I have. In fact, as a running geezer, I get it in spades. Why would anyone want to run, especially considerable distances, if they didn't have to? Especially if they look and sound like they might drop dead any minute. And to find it pleasurable.
Even when it hurts.
Admittedly, it flies in the face of common sense.
But, like our hapless hero Mr. Bacon, we DO sometimes talk about it, often with similar consequences.
Occasionally, though, someone "gets it" when we describe our experience "in the other dimension."
My barrista Ally at the local coffee shop noticed my running shirts last year and said she wanted to start running. This was followed by many discussions of shoes, C25K strategies, etc., culminating in her first half marathon this past weekend.
She beat me, dang her hide!

Let me be clear about one thing.
You'll always be Superman for me, Mr. Bacon

Ray & Jenny's Pumpkin Cheesecake
Recipe by JenSteele23
This is a great holiday dessert, especially at Thanksgiving! Very creamy, rich, and delicious.
Top Review by Sydney Mike
Absolutely happy to make this whole recipe & have one cheesecake to enjoy here at home while sending one off with my other half to share at work! Both had a side of topping that could be included ~ A thick homemade orange/cranberry topping that would be just right for the winter holidays (or any other time of year, too)! Many thanks! [Tagged, made & reviewed for one of my adoptees at the tail end of the current Pick A Chef]
See Discussion:1 Review
Ingredients Nutrition
- 2 lbs cream cheese (warm in microwave for easier blending)
- 6 eggs
- 1⁄2 cup heavy whipping cream
- 1 (15 ounce) can pumpkin puree
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 1 cup light brown sugar
- 1⁄2 cup all-purpose flour

Directions See How It's Made
- Preheat oven to 350°F.
- In large bowl, mix together all of the above ingredients and mix well until evenly blended together.
- Pour the mixture evenly into the two pie crusts (don't overfill, centers will rise in the oven).
- Place cheesecakes on baking sheet and bake in oven for 1 hour 15 minutes.
- Remove from the oven.
- Use a knife to loosen the sides of the pie crusts from their pans (this will help prevent the cheesecakes from splitting down the middle).

- 8Once cooled, place cheesecakes into the refrigerator.
- Make the cheesecakes up to 2 weeks in advance, they taste better with time! Enjoy -- .

SANTIAGO (Apr. 16)
Israeli water irrigation experts have been invited to Chile to help this country study ways and means of irrigating arid land and improving present irrigation methods, it was reported by Israeli Ambassador Moshe Tov. The Israeli envoy told the Jewish Telegraphic Agency that several months ago President Salvador Allende sent the Chilean Minister of Development to Israel to meet with Israeli water irrigation experts. After several days of intense work, the minister and the president of the Institute of Arid Zones in the Negev came to an agreement, along with the Latin American Institute for Economic and Social Planning, to conduct a one-year study program.
Tov said that the program, expected to begin in May, will be conducted for five months in Israel and seven months in Chile. The program will not be a theoretical one but a practical on the spot application of Israeli water irrigation methods to arid areas in northern Chile. "This program, one of several in this area, is a concrete example of the admiration Chile and President Allende have for Israeli technical know-how and at the same time a manifestation of Israel's readiness to help try solve some of the problems of a nation it considers to be its. friend," Tov said.
Meanwhile, Tov added, Shaul Alozoroff, one of Israel's leading experts on water problems, was invited by the University of Chile to present a series of lectures on this problem. He arrived here several days ago to present a three-day lecture series. The invitation to Alozoroff was part of an exchange program between Chile and Israel of technicians, professors and students. The program was arranged, Tov said, last Oct. when the president of the University of Chile went to Israel with a group of professors and signed an exchange program agreement.
Presently, the Israeli envoy said, there are some 200 persons from Israel in Chile who received fellowships in Israel to come here and work in other countries to provide technical aid in agricultural problems. Last Wednesday another Israeli water irrigation expert was invited by Chile's University of the North to work for six weeks to prepare the basis for a special seminar to study water irrigation problems throughout Chile.

PHOTOGRAPHERS made a splash in Portland this month as part of this year's British Underwater Photography Championship.
The annual competition was held on the island for the first time, with 24 photographers taking part.
The first ever underwater photograph was taken in nearby Weymouth Bay by William Thompson in 1856.
He lowered a housed plate camera to the seabed and oper-ated the shutter from a boat.
Competitors dived from Scimitar Diving boats in Portland Harbour, while some were stationed as far as Swanage Pier to capture a winning shot.
Each had from midnight Friday until 6pm on Saturday and had three main categories to enter: Marine Life, Mankind in the Sea and Compact Cameras.
Entries were submitted following a barbecue at the Harbour Lights.
A panel of judges featuring underwater photographers Dan Bolt, Gavin Parsons and Stuart Philpott, selected the winners and runner-ups in each category.
The competition also featured a Humorous category, with the winner judged by the audience.
Cathy Lewis was declared the overall winner on the day for her photo of a snakelocks anemone shrimp. She took the photo on her second dive of the day.
Cathy was also the winner of the Marine Life category with the same image. She was presented with the UnderWater Visions Trophy and a diving holiday in the Maldives among other prizes.
Terry Griffiths won the Mankind in the Sea category with an image of a diver. His entry was considered to be an 'excellent example', showing a diver with all his hoses neatly secured and rays of light in the background.
The Compact Cameras category was introduced for divers without expensive cameras.
Colin Whyte's image of a black-faced blenny won the category, and was taken using a Canon PowerShot G9.
The British Society of Underwater Photographers (BSoUP) was formed in 1967.
It has over 250 members and is the largest underwater photographic society in Britain.
Joss Woolf, pictured inset, chair of the BSoUP Committee, said those who took part liked what they managed to produce.
She said: "We loved the new venue.
"We thought it was time for a change. We just need more people."
Force six winds on the day meant most divers were confined to Portland Harbour, but this didn't stop those competing.
Joss added: "Someone can always pull something out of the bag. If people want to compete next year, check out our website bsoup.org."

Corning hints germaphobic low-reflectance Gorilla Glass is in the labs
