Mickey's Halloween Party: Trick-or-treating for the rest of us
Written by Robert Niles
When did you (or your children) stop trick-or-treating?Tweet
I suspect that, for many, once someone gets to middle-school age, trick-or-treating on Halloween begins to fade into childhood memory. Kids in double-digits are more often likely to get a disapproving look along with their candy. Friends might start laughing or sneering at classmates who still choose to dress up and work the neighborhood.
But some kids love trick-or-treating, and don't want to give it up.
If you look young enough, I suppose you can keep trick-or-treating for a long time. One of my wife's college friends was small enough that she could pass for a child and get away with trick-or-treating well into graduate school. But what do you if you're a normal-sized middle- or high-school student who just wants to keep being a kid for one more night?
Fortunately, for people who live in Southern California or the Orlando area, we have an out: Mickey's Halloween Party. (Throw in a "Not-So-Scary" if you live in Orlando.) At the Disney Halloween party, everyone can trick-or-treat and no one's going to look at you funny for getting your candy fix. That makes this party a great alternative for families with kids who are at that "in between" age when they still want to dress up and collect candy, even if some of the neighbors don't approve. Heck, it's a fun option for grown-ups who'd like to get their own candy stash, too, without having to raid their kids'.
C'mon. Raise your hand if you've ever enforced the "daddy tax" or the "mommy tax."
At Mickey's Halloween Party, everyone in the family can dress up (or not), grab a bag and fill it up with candy all evening long. Or if candy's not your thing, you can enjoy ride time on several of Disneyland's or the Magic Kingdom's top attractions, a special fireworks show, and a Halloween parade. Both parks put out many Halloween-themed sweets for sale, for anyone looking for a non-candy treat.
This year, I've heard that visitors with diet restrictions, including nut allergies, can go to City Hall in the Magic Kingdom to exchange the candy they collect during the evening for more acceptable treats. (Disneyland's party hasn't started yet, so I haven't heard if the same policy will be in effect on the west coast, too. *Update: See the comments.)
If you go, here's my number-one tip: Go as deep into the park as you can, as far away from the castle as possible, before you start collecting candy. Disney distributes candy in several zones around the park, and the ones nearest the castle can be mobbed with nearly hour-long waits early in the evening on some nights. Start at the far edges of the park and work your way in - the opposite approach that most families will take.
And don't be afraid to hit some rides while lots of other visitors queue up for the sweets. Disney won't run out if you wait until later in the evening to fill your bags. Disney trucks in a ton of candy for each night. That's not a euphemism. They literally have one ton (or more) of candy on hand for each night of the party.
Trick-or-treating doesn't have to end with elementary school. You can keep on acting like a kid on Halloween. That's why I love living in Southern California, where every fall we can go to Mickey's Halloween Party.
Mickey's Halloween Party runs at Disneyland on select nights from Sept. 28 - Oct. 31, with tickets from $54-$69.
Mickey's Not-So-Scary Halloween Party runs at Walt Disney World's Magic Kingdom on select nights from now through Nov. 2, with tickets from $56-$70.

I went to Disneyland's version last year. You don't need to go to City Hall. You can already ask for healthy treats at the various stations. They offered apples slices, raisins, and carrot sticks. They are high quality treats. The apple slices are especially great for everyone to snack on throughout the night.
If you're stuck with lots of candy, I give them out at my home on Halloween.
Anyways, my kid doesn't restrict the trick and treating to only on Halloween. There are plenty of other opportunities for Halloween celebrating. It seems like every year is getting much much better with the holiday. The whole month of October is the Great Pumpkin.

I went to MNSSHP Friday night, and my trip report should be up soon.

Couple of years ago, I took a walk through Hershey's Trick or Treat area with two bags, explaining that one was for a dear friend who was sick and unable to join me, but I'd see her the next day (truth, actually.). They filled both of my bags and were very nice about it.
Yeah, yeah, I know..it ain't Disney. So shoot me.
From Mark Fairleigh on September 20, 2012 at 12:00 PM
Wifey and I have been going to this for years. A great time every year. Mickey's Boo-To-You Halloween Parade is one of the best period. Plus night-time rides on Big Thunder is so awesome. I wholeheartedly echo Robert's recommendation.
From Anon Mouse on September 20, 2012 at 1:21 PM
Hey, I brought an extra bag too to Disneyland. They filled it without question. I ended up with tons of candy. I gave away a large portion on Halloween and brought a bag to work.
From Daniel Etcheberry on September 20, 2012 at 2:01 PM
I stopped eating candy a long time ago, and I have been without cavities in my teeth for a long time (knocking wood)
So trick-or-treating doesn't appeal to me anymore. Roles have switched, and now it's me who gives candy to the kids who knock at my door. Problem is when there is some candy left at the end of the day, and sugar-temptation starts to kick in.
I have fond memories of trick-or-treating when I was a kid in the late 70s, and we did it in our neighborhood; I supppose that nowadays is safer to do it at the Disney parks.
From 188.8.131.52 on September 20, 2012 at 2:29 PM
I trick or treated every year until my senior year of college - and that year and every year since I went to Not So Scary instead so I've been trick or treating every single year of my life! I love Halloween and I could not imagine not begging for candy. I have a peanut allergy so I used to take two bags around at the Disney party and just end up with one bag of candy that I could eat, but this year I will trade out at guest relations - so I can have two bags to take home!
From Mike Gallagher on September 21, 2012 at 7:52 AM
By the way, Robert, you should not place a picture like that first one in a spot where it can be seen so easily by a diabetic. Shame on you. :( J/K, of course. Some of my favorites, including Reese's PB Cups and Snickers, are well represented.
From Dominick D on September 21, 2012 at 8:26 AM
Snickers, Mike?
From 220.127.116.11 on September 21, 2012 at 9:47 AM
I worked as a cast member at a few of these in Anaheim last year and have to say it has tainted the entire trick 'r treating experience for me. God willing I won't be too bitter to take my kids in 10 years ;).
From Anthony Murphy on September 21, 2012 at 4:44 PM
Mickey's Not So Scary Halloween Party works on all levels of Halloween, except the scary part! The weather is usually pretty nice, the candy is plentiful, and there are plenty of adult only groups wondering the park! Universal does their Halloween Event Well, but so does Disney!
From Robert Niles on September 22, 2012 at 4:25 PM
If anyone wonders, the first picture was the single-person haul from the first time when went to the Mickey party at Disneyland, a few years back. Love the brand-name stuff.
Now what I'd really love Disney to do would be a trick-or-treat party at Epcot, with candy from each of the lands in World Showcase. That. Would. Be. Awesome.
From Doug Jenkins on September 23, 2012 at 4:07 PM
That's some expensive candy

Well, I'm gonna go to my room and have a heart attack now.
She said something about her uncle or something being a cop. I don't know if that's bull**** or not but it's scary. I guess if I don't see the cops by tomorrow then I'm alright.
I sure hope I...
She said if I don't remove it then she would be calling the police. I then removed it, as well as my accounts at the places I posted the video.
I'm ****ting tacks here.
I deleted the video....

Creatine Mono
Nitrix (just got it to try out)
Fish Oil
What you said worked because right after I read it I did 30 minutes of cardio. My diet was good today (it usually is pretty good) and only had a small cheat of 2 pieces of bacon on my chicken...

I just set a small goal in my sig. Hopefully it's attainable. I lost that first 20lbs pretty quick since I had never exercised before.
****, that depresses me.
Cheer up. You are actually only 1 point behind me.
I don't have calipers or a tape measure.

I'd love to meet Dexter Jackson and Ronnie Coleman.
My mom has a 40" LCD that cost her $1700. It's awesome.
I'm looking to get a 19" LCD for my room.
I only missed about two button things. I was playing on easy on the song "War Pigs" by Black Sabbath. I know how to play it on guitar so my timing was good.

Taking Orders, Exchanging Risk
Voices, November 2, 2010
Under the Securities and Exchange Commission's proposed rule governing market access, to be reviewed Wednesday in an open meeting, broker-dealers will have to have in place financial controls and procedures that exceed appropriate pre-set credit or capital thresholds for each customer and that protect the broker-dealer's financial exposure as well.
Also, the controls would have to ensure that the orders that get sent to trading venues from parties using their market participant identifiers would comply with all regulatory requirements, before the order is entered.
As the Chicago Board Options Exchange notes, there are clear risks posed by such arrangements, "particularly where the customer in essence has direct and unfettered electronic access to a marketplace without being a broker-dealer." Market disruptions, financial losses, rule violations are likely.
The CBOE does not believe the sweep of the rule needs to apply to "market access arrangements other than unfiltered electronic access,'' based on its comment letter earlier this year..
ConvergEx also expressed concern about the cost.
The SEC, it noted, put the cost for a broker-dealer to develop the technology to comply with the proposal at $51,000 and the annual cost at $47,300.
ConvergEx' own numbers put the development cost at $750,000 and maintenance at $1 million a year "for IT services that include "fat finger," credit and, to a limited extent, compliance controls."
That could be conservative, for some firms. Because life is going to get much more complex. Orders in one market are going to trigger waves of trades in other markets. Orders in one type of asset – like stocks – will trigger more orders, instantly, in other assets – like futures, options and other derivatives. And the interrelated trading will occur not just in the United States, but on multiple continents.
For instance, Algo Technologies – which promotes itself as delivering "next-generation trading technology" -- is working on what it calls a "single multiasset class trading platform.''
Right now, a market center operator may have cash equities running on one platform, block crosses running on another and derivatives on yet another.
Algo is putting together one platform that will run trades in all classes – even if the orders are 'multilegged' involving multiple types of assets and multiple venues.
Then it wants to put the platform inside exchanges, to save time and make such "multilegged trading" as fast as stock trading. Right now, for instance, Algo Technologies created an engine for exchanges that can match details of orders in 16 millionths of a second. Now, less than a year later, it thinks it can get that down to 10 microseconds.
Which means that it's inside exchanges where controls against the risks of high-speed trading need to lie, chief executive and co-founder Hirander Misra believes.
"Ultimately it's the exchange systems that should have the controls in them that are consistently applied so you don't get a degree of cross platform regulatory arbitrage, across jurisdictions,'' he said.
The way to get past that is to "ensure that consistency and validation and monitoring exists so that everyone has a level playing field irrespective of how they are accessing markets,'' he said. "Plus, if things go wrong, you can also bust trades and deal with that and you can't do that with a vendor system.''
This brings to mind the Risk Management Gateway that NYSE Euronext operates. The gateway allows broker-dealers to monitor and oversee their sponsored participants' market activity.
When a sponsored customer's order goes through the gateway, it's checked against criteria that the sponsor has established for the customer. If the order stays within the preset limits, the order goes through. If not, it gets returned.
The gateway can be used "in connection with orders sent to any market center, regardless of affiliation with NYSE Euronext,'' the exchange operator noted in its comment to the SEC. NYSE Technologies already provides uniform access to more than 40 exchanges and venues through the gateway.
NYSE Euronext seemed concerned that the SEC's proposed rule would "create regulatory and competitive disparities" between its gateway, which is subject to certain regulations because it is an "exchange facility" and rival third-party products.
But Misra's approach answers that. Pre-trade risk controls, manageable by all broker-dealers before orders are sent in, can and should be universally applied. Not just here, but globally.
And to prevent orders from moving to markets with the fewest controls or "impediments,'' the SEC will have to work with peers internationally to develop uniform standards – and uniform "exchange facilities" for controlling trading risks.
That may put the onus on exchanges to make sure brokers are actively managing any risks of any customers they have.
But it is, after all, the operations of exchanges – and capital markets, around the world – that are at risk.
And inextricably linked.

Abstract. A new formulation of the Goddard Earth Observing System Chemistry-Climate Model, Version 2 (GEOS V2 CCM), with an improved general circulation model and an internally generated quasi-biennial oscillation (QBO), is used to investigate the response of the Antarctic stratosphere to (1) warm pool El Niño (WPEN) events and (2) the sensitivity of this response to the phase of the QBO. Two 50-yr time-slice simulations are forced by repeating annual cycles of sea surface temperatures and sea ice concentrations composited from observed WPEN and neutral ENSO (ENSON) events. In these simulations, greenhouse gas and ozone-depleting substance concentrations represent the present-day climate. The modelled responses to WPEN, and to the phase of the QBO during WPEN, are compared with NASA's Modern Era Retrospective-Analysis for Research and Applications (MERRA) reanalysis.
WPEN events enhance poleward planetary wave activity in the central South Pacific during austral spring, leading to relative warming of the Antarctic lower stratosphere in November/December. During the easterly phase of the QBO (QBO-E), the GEOS V2 CCM reproduces the observed 3–5 K warming of the polar region at 50 hPa, in the WPEN simulation relative to ENSON.
In the recent past, the response to WPEN events was sensitive to the phase of the QBO: the enhancement in planetary wave driving and the lower stratospheric warming signal were mainly associated with WPEN events coincident with QBO-E. In the GEOS V2 CCM, however, the Antarctic response to WPEN events is insensitive to the phase of the QBO: the modelled response is always easterly QBO-like. OLR, streamfunction and Rossby wave energy diagnostics are used to show that the modelled QBO does not extend far enough into the lower stratosphere and upper troposphere to modulate convection and thus planetary wave activity in the south central Pacific.

A word from Gia-Drink.Eat.Listen.
The atmosphere at Gia is a 19th century modern dining room that leads to an outdoor balcony that overlooks New Garden Road. The vibrant space includes a drinking and eating bar high tables. On selected nights, live music will fill the air. The "Library"or "Parlour", are tucked away in the back of the restaurant, and are ideal for private parties, celebrations, and any type of gathering you can imagine. We offer our guests a unique menu that includes a variety of small plates that are sautéed or baked in a wood fire oven. We call our dishes "small plates" because we want all of our guests to try multiple items and share them with each other. One of our signature menu items that we offer is called "Schiacciata," which is a Sicilian flatbread. Our drink menu consists of wide array of wines, craft beers, and our interpretation of vintage cocktails.Continued

This restaurant was refreshing in that there are not many other restaurants with such a chic and classic feel to it in Greensboro. The food was great, although we wished there were a few more crackers or pieces of bread on our charcuterie plate. We ordered the fried artichokes (very savory), charcuterie, tiramisu, and fruitti di mare. Service was quite good, as well.Special Features:

- Great Place to ReconnectpricenoobjectDined on 8/7/2014We got together a group of old friends who hadn't seen each other in years and went to Gia. While it was a little noisy, sitting in "the Library" sheltered us from the bar noise considerably, so we had no trouble talking, even when the jazz band began to play. This was a Thursday night, so I don't know about Saturdays. The food was good and fun for sharing. It's easy to spend a lot, because you just can't resist trying one more! All in all, we had a very nice time, and I think we'll go back and take another bunch of friends.Special Features:

- Out of the ordinarySmokeyDined on 8/4/2014This was our 2nd visit to Gia and the same high standards were evident at both visits. We love the small plate concept as every one at the table gets to sample all the plates (or not if you prefer). Food comes out to the table in a timely fashion & is well prepared and flavourful. Service is attentive & courteous and aims to please. Excellent selection of wine & beer to accompany the meal. One suggestion - please offer regular coffee, most folks like it!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

- Luv2dineDined on 7/31/2014This place would be great for first dates or a girls night out. You could take your time and be there all night or if things aren't going well on a date you could get out of there quickly after only one or two tapas. Food comes out very quickly once ordered. Live music on Thursday night was a nice touch. Nice ambiance.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- One of our favorites!pastamamaDined on 7/27/2014As usual we had a wonderful meal and great service...this has become our go to for dinner with friends.

We invited another new couple...their first time and they said they will definitely be back!Special Features:
- Drink. Eat. Enjoy!luv2dineDined on 7/26/2014I picked this restaurant for a night out with friends based on Trip Advisor reviews. I had recently eaten at a similar restaurant, (Curate), in Asheville, NC and thought the small plate/tapas format would be fun. Gia was a great find! Upon entering, we immediately were taken in with the atmosphere. It's a great blend of modern, eclectic yet inviting. Our server was spot on with her cocktail suggestions, (she recommended, and I wholeheartedly agree -the Black Gin Rickey is outstanding! And neither of us like gin...). We started right away ordering our food which was brought to us fairly quickly: the Garlic Oregano Frites and the Wood Fired Cauliflower were great starters. And the food just kept getting better as we went!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Todd4OscarDined on 7/10/2014In today's world of so-so food and service, GIA is above and beyond! Friendly attentive service coupled with excellent food (both in flavor and presentation) makes for an incredible evening out. "Small Plates" are their specialty, but amazing flavors and choices are their goal. Try it, you'll love it!Special Features:

- First visitrem66Dined on 7/3/2014Gia was recommended by a neighbor. Enjoyed the location of our table by a window & comfortable seats. Liked the varied food and beverage menus. The food was excellent & liked the small plate/share concept but prefer to receive all the food at one time instead of in stages. Waitress was excellent, very knowledgeable & friendly. We are in our mid-60's & the evening was going great until the live music began. Much too loud for our table location & we went from having a wonderful experience to looking forward to the band taking a break or quitting. The music itself was good, just too loud. It made talking across, even a small table difficult. Will return for a lunch or an evening when music is not scheduled.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

"Surely You're Joking, Mr. Feynman!": Adventures of a Curious Character(via lospaziobianco)
I don't like honors. I'm appreciated for the work that I did, and for people who appreciate it, and I notice that other physicists use my work. I don't need anything else. I don't think there's any sense to anything else. I don't see that it makes any point that someone in the Swedish Academy decides that this work is noble enough to receive a prize. I've already got the prize. The prize is the pleasure of finding the thing out, the kick in the discovery, the observation that other people use it. Those are the real things. The honors are unreal to me. I don't believe in honors.

UNFINISHED TALES, and
|New book:
The Children of Hurin
|Click the thumbnail to see a larger image in a pop-up window. Click a linked edition name or volume to purchase a book right now.
|Houghton Mifflin, Dexlue edition, illustrated, 2007 New! ISBN: 0618904417
Presented for the first time as a fully continuous and stand-alone story, the epic tale of The Children of Húrin will reunite fans of The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings with elves and men, dragons and dwarves, and the rich landscape and characters unique to Tolkien.
The Children of Húrin, begun in 1918, was one of three "Great Tales" J.R.R. Tolkien worked on throughout his life, though he never realized his ambition to see it published. Though familiar to many fans from extracts and references within other Tolkien books, it has long been assumed that the story would forever remain an "unfinished tale." Now reconstructed by Christopher Tolkien, painstakingly editing together the complete work from his father's many drafts, this book is the culmination of a tireless thirty-year endeavor by him to bring J.R.R. Tolkien's vast body of unpublished work to a wide audience.
Christopher Tolkien said: "It has seemed to me for a long time that there was a good case for presenting my father's long version of the legend of The Children of Húrin as an independent work, between its own covers, with a minimum of editorial presence, and above all in continuous narrative without gaps or interruptions, if this could be done without distortion or invention, despite the unfinished state in which he left some parts of it."
Having drawn the distinctive maps for the original The Lord of the Rings more than fifty years ago, Christopher has also created a detailed new map for this book. In addition, it will include a jacket and color paintings by Alan Lee, illustrator of The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings Centenary Edition and Oscar®-winning designer of the film trilogy.
|Houghton Mifflin, hardcover, illustrated, 2007 New! ISBN: 0618894640
See description above.
|Houghton Mifflin, hardcover, illustrated, 2004 Second Edition ISBN: 0618391118
Second edition of the deluxe oversized Silmarillion, illustrated by Ted Nasmith is sturdy and printed on high quality paper offers several new illustrations in addition to the ones featured in the first edition. The fold-out Map of Beleriand is attractively printed in full color (merely colorized--not redrawn) is tipped in to the back of the book. It might be a bit heavy for casual reading, but it also happens to be same trim size as the Alan Lee illustrated Hobbit and the new 3-volume Alan Lee illustrated Lord of the Rings.
|Houghton Mifflin, hardcover & paperback, 2001 Second Edition
Hardcover: ISBN 0618135049The Second American Edition of The Silmarillion became available in 2001 (The British edition on HarperCollins was published in 1999). There are only a few major differences from the first edition. The main alteration to the book is the inclusion of Tolkien's voluminous letter to Milton Waldman (#131 in The Letters of J.R.R. Tolkien), the publisher to which he was pitching The Silmarillion and The Lord of the Rings together as a unified work. Most of the letter is included although it is truncated at paragraph 37 (out of 47) just before it begins to discuss the Third Age. This letter is preceeded by a Preface To The Second Edition by Christopher Tolkien. Also undertaken for this edition was the correction of textual errors.
The most immediately noticeable difference between this
edition (hardcover)
and the first is its size, measuring a mere 8 1/2 inches (21.6 cm) by 5
3/4 inches (14.6 cm), compared to the first edition's 9 1/4 inches
cm) by 6 1/4 inches (15.8 cm). It is about the same size as the
hardcover edition of The Hobbit. The boards of the
are partially clothbound. The dust jacket features a painting by
Ted Nasmith depicting the awakening of the Elves. Unfortunately,
the fold-out map (as featured in the first hardcover edition) has been
done away with and the map of Beleriand is merely printed across two
in the back of the book. With a price tag of $28.00 for the
the only reason for choosing the hardcover over the trade paperback
in this case would be for durability. The 2nd edition can be
however, to anyone who does not own a copy of The Letters,
for the value of getting the letter to Milton Waldman, which is
reading for all Tolkien fans who interested in the relationship between
Silmarillion and The Lord of the Rings. (See also the
to the Letters).
|Ballantine/Del Rey paperback, 2002 Second Edition ISBN: 0345325818
In 2002, Ballantine/Del Rey put a new cover on The Silmarillion (art by Michael Dringenberg) for the first time since 1982 when new artwork by David Sweet depicting the destruction of Númenor replaced H. E. Riddett's colorized version of Tolkien's "The Mountain Path" (the same picture that was used for the first hardcover edition). The cover design matched that of the 1999 edition of The Hobbit and LOTR but has been slightly altered since. Like the hardcover edition, this edition includes Tolkien's letter to Milton Waldman and Christopher Tolkien's preface. The Map of Beleriand printed across two pages in the back of the book is Christopher Tolkien's original.
|Houghton Mifflin, hardcover, illustrated, 1998 ISBN: 0395939461
|This deluxe oversized edition, illustrated by Ted Nasmith is sturdy and printed on high quality paper. It might be a bit heavy for casual reading, however. The Map of Beleriand is attractively printed in full color (merely colorized--not redrawn) as endpapers. It also happens to be same trim size as the Alan Lee illustrated Hobbit and the new 3-volume Alan Lee illustrated Lord of the Rings. It appears to be still available from various sources, but it is superceded by the Second Edition.
|Houghton Mifflin, hardcover & paperback, 2001
Unfinished Tales was reissued in 2001 in both hardcover and trade paperback with new cover artwork. In the paperback, the map of Middle-earth is printed inside the front cover and on the facing page. When Unfinished Tales was first published in 1980, it featured a map that was newly redrawn by Christopher Tolkien to improve the clarity of the map and correct a few defects. Since then, this map has been used in most editions of The Lord of the Rings as well.
|Ballantine/Del Rey, paperback, 2002 ISBN: 0345357116
|New cover art has been added to the Del Rey edition of UT, depicting Bilbo Baggins reading books of ancient lore in his study, in actuality mimicking Tolkien himself. This edition includes the redrawn maps by Shelly Shapiro (see description of Ballantine's 1999 Lord of the Rings above). The confusing thing about this edition to anyone who has never seen the Houghton Mifflin one is the last section of the introduction on page 14, in which Christopher Tolkien explains the revision of the Middle-Earth map in some detail. A few of the features he mentions are not even found on the Shapiro redrawings. Furthermore, the map of Númenor is redrawn, depriving the reader of seeing the original map.

Volumes 6-9 which comprise the subset known as The History of the Lord of the Rings, parts 1-4, are available in hardcover, and in the fall of 2000 were issued in trade paperback, available individually and as a 4-book boxed set (view photo). In the special case of Volume 9: Sauron Defeated, only the first third of this book belongs to the History of LOTR. Consequently, a special paperback edition has been produced, entitled The End of the Third Age (view photo), which is essentially Section One from Sauron Defeated. This book does not contain anything not found in SD. Nevertheless, the new History of The Lord of the Rings (ISBN 0-618-08355-3 ) edition is a very handsome set with all-new cover artwork and design. The typography and layout match that of the 1999 HM paperback editions of The Hobbit and LOTR.
So far, the Ballantine/Del Rey editions include only up to Volume 5: The Lost Road. Houghton Mifflin has not yet licensed Ballantine to release mass market paperback of further volumes. Ballantine packaged volumes 1-5 in a boxed set in 2003. (see table below).

Funkwerks "Saison"
Funkwerks Saison (Farmhouse Ale) is brewed using their unique, proprietary Belgian yeast strain. This is probably their 'flagship' brew. I'd like to thank Keith in Boulder, Colorado for his personal donation of this bottle. Aromas are predominantly fruity like a mix of cantaloupe, tangerine, and pear. Malts are bready with hints of hay, floral hops like honeysuckle, highlights of lemon, and yeasty phenols bringing out black pepper with a dash of clove.
The palate makes a fruity introduction with suggestions of white grapes and star fruit. A sour note like green apple quickly rises from behind, resting on an undercarriage of crisp cereal grains. By mid-palate, hops begin to rise into a bouquet of floral flavors, anchored down by gentle grassy bitterness. Bready malts counterbalance with moderate sweetness. Nearing the finish, that original sour note continues to rise into a bright note of lemon zest. The mouthfeel begins with tongue-tickling carbonation that surges into a smooth body, leaving dry and thirsty.
This was a great choice, Keith! Altogether, I find this incredibly well-balanced, easy to drink, and generally very agreeable. Sourness ends up being the dominant point on the palate, followed by sweet, then bitter. Yeast isn't super funky. I feel like this captures the classic element of the Saison with harmony and grace. What's not to like? I recommend it.

- Northern Wisconsin struggles keeping its young people. That leads to fewer young families and shrinking communities in the area, but rural communities are trying to reverse that trend.

"The young people who are leaving to go to work, and we just don't have the jobs to bring them back to stay here and live here with the jobs that they want," Kempf said.

Christensen didn't attend the sentencing in Wausau, but Heimerman read a letter from Christenson to the court about how difficult it has been after the attack.

U.S. Takes Close Look At Alaska's Arctic
March 7, 2012 by UPI - United Press International, Inc.
WASHINGTON (UPI) — The U.S. Department of Interior announced there was a need to take a careful look at the arctic landscape in Alaska for the sake of better management.
"The arctic's unique ecosystem calls for a landscape-scale approach to management that cuts across agencies, jurisdictions, and boundaries," Deputy Interior Secretary David Hayes said in a statement.
"We need to work toward a long-term management framework for the arctic that recognizes both the resource potential of the region and the irreplaceable natural resources it contains."
The Interior Department hosted a delegation from the federal government's science community to chart an ecosystem-based management framework for the Alaskan arctic.
Hayes said the meeting focused on ways to balance the need for greater domestic energy resources and responsible environmental management.
Last month, Interior Secretary Ken Salazar said he saw "great promise" in the resource base in Alaska. In the arctic frontier, he said, "a cautious approach" would support the goal of increasing domestic oil and natural gas production.
The American Petroleum Institute estimates as much as 700,000 barrels of oil per day could be produced from Alaska's Beaufort and Chukchi seas for 40 years.

Paddle-Induced Vaginal Bleeding and Abortions
Would any school paddle a girl if they knew she was pregnant?
One of many ironies of Christian schools being especially likely to use corporal punishment, and of fundamentalist Christians to be among the most vocal supporters of public school paddling, is a hidden and little recognized danger that paddling has very likely caused a number of abortion miscarriages in the US. There have been perhaps dozens of these "paddle induced abortions" within the past decade, and perhaps much more than that. Paddle abortions are a likely byproduct of our perverted and brutal assaults on young women. The possibility of a teen girl being pregnant at the time of a paddling, whether she is aware of it or not or whether she admits it, is yet another way that paddling is a very different proposition for girls than it is for boys. Like everything else that happens to the potential mother a fetus experiences the paddling as well.
Certainly, in their defense, many gung-ho paddle supporters have no idea that paddling can cause vaginal hemorrhaging. Misled by so many paddle lovers in authority they ignorantly imagine paddling to be a few light taps to a teens buttocks by saintly men who are incapable of any sexual thought outside of marriage, and who have some mythical "science of paddling" under spiritual, mental, moral, and physical control. They bury within clouds of religious misinterpretation what little they do know about the brutality and sexual abuse aspects. They certainly dont look into the issue enough to learn about cases of vaginal bleeding. For some it might seem almost sinful to even mention the word vagina, yet it is ok to whack a girl there with a board. They ignore the biblical teachings to search out and rightly divide the truth. They dont seek, and thus dont find, the necessary information to realize that paddling may well induce abortion, which they otherwise claim to abhor. Lets just say that of the many prohibitions against hitting women that most of the old time paddlers clung to the possibility of pregnancy may have been high on their list.
There is at least one public school system in Ohio that never paddles teen girls in the spring because some of the girls might be pregnant then. Im not going to name the school and embarrass it specifically because it is based on a private conversation related to me by a friend. They were nice enough to share that little tidbit. That unofficial policy is, in fact, what first led me to wonder what effect paddling might have on a pregnant student and fetus. I also wondered whether they had, in fact, paddled pregnant students in the past.
Would anyone in any school paddle a girl if he knew she was pregnant? Would teacher protection act type laws protect them from liability if they caused a paddle-abortion? I dont think any district would knowingly paddle a pregnant student. I am conversely very sure paddling districts have, nonetheless, unknowingly paddled many pregnant students. We can be statistically sure that some number of paddled girls are pregnant at the time. We can consider the number of paddled teen girls and the number of pregnant teen girls and compare them, whether the pregnancies go to term or not. Regardless of whether the pregnant young woman knows she is pregnant, or would carry the baby to term, the paddle may make that choice for her. I'm sure the actual number of paddled teen girls and pregnant teen girls has some significant cross over. How many schools have quietly considered this issue but never talk about it? How many principals have paddled teen girls, only to find out later that the girls were pregnant at the time? How many of these girls miscarried for whatever reason and kept the whole thing a secret from everyone? I wonder if people are out there right now who, like my friend with a permanent paddle-induced back injury that well meet in a few pages, think paddling contributed to their miscarriage? They very likely, nonetheless, for shame or the feeling it wouldn't do any good to complain, never brought the issue up to anyone.
You really have to wonder about the Ohio dont paddle girls in the spring folks. What kind of sex ed did these brilliant educators receive? Humans are capable of reproduction anytime. There is no heat or season. Unlike many gung-ho paddling schools they do at least deserve "partial credit" for realizing that paddling might be harmful to a fetus. That alone sets them far above many paddling schools where paddling teen girls is a daily fact of life right through graduation day, with the oldest girls getting paddled more often and harder than younger ones. Nonetheless perhaps these Ohio paddlers should be fired simply for being so blatantly ignorant as to think the month matters when it comes to teen girls being pregnant and paddled. Even if there were a statistical rise in pregnancies in the spring it should not affect a decision to avoid paddling possible pregnant students. The girls can be pregnant any time and thus, if you have concerns about paddling pregnant teens, then sexually mature females capable of reproduction should not be paddled at any time. Their seasonal paddling of young women also negates completely the necessity argument. If they dont need to use it with girls in the spring, then they dont need it any time.
Although most paddle abuse occurs in the South, severe battering occurs in other states as well. In a recent Ohio case a young woman was very brutally beaten and suffered a severe injury from just one hit. The politicians in Ohio, in a moment of near enlightenment, banned paddling -- but then left a loophole that allowed the most abusive, and as weve noted elsewhere the most backward, schoolsthe ones that
the paddle-- to bring it back. One horrendous case made the courts and thus the newsand as usual the courts proved to be entirely useless and ended up dropping a long suit on jurisdiction issues. Again, as usual, the battered child/woman wanted to move on with her life and not be the center of sexually charged paddle attention forever because she was officially abused by a man in school who was doing his job.

Mine wouldn't start and after all the diagnostics at the dealer, they said nothing was wrong. I told them the brake lights stuck on and they said there was nothing wrong with the switch etc. Came out of a restaurant today and viola, the brake lights were on. Backing into the garage, took my foot off the brake and the brake lights stayed on. Lift the pedal with my toe and they go off. Just as I told them. Another danged trip to the dealer for something they should have fixed three weeks ago! This time I have a photo to prove it!
Took it in today, first tried to adjust switch and found that wouldn't work, plunger kept activating lights. Discovered could not be adjusted and the brake light switch faulty and replaced. No longer makes "clicking sound" when brake pedal is pressed. Hope this solves dead battery issue. Becoming much too friendly with this dealer, although they are the best around.

The traditional sauce for Christmas pudding is a "hard sauce", that's to say brandy butter but I can't help feeling that this corner-cutting Eggnogg Cream, devised for my Express festivities last year, is best of all.
Actually, Dom, my long-suffering TV director, does a version of this with brandy, which also hits the spot (I think the cool cream factor is key), though you will need to whip in a tablespoon or two of icing sugar - no more - as you go.
Why not try Eggnog Cream with some of these other easy Christmas pudding recipes? Or browse our Christmas recipe collection.

Adult Fiction:
"The Good House" by Ann Leary. Hildy Good is a townie. A lifelong resident of an historic community on the rocky coast of Boston's North Shore, she knows pretty much everything about everyone. Hildy is a descendant of one of the witches hung in nearby Salem, and is believed by some to have inherited psychic gifts. Not true, of course; she's just good at reading people. Hildy is good at lots of things. A successful real-estate broker, her days are full but her nights are lonely since her family, convinced that she was drinking too much, sent her off to rehab. Now she's in recovery - more or less. Then she meets Rebecca. And Hildy feels like a person of the world again, as she and Rebecca escape their worries with some harmless gossip and a bottle of wine by the fire - just one of their secrets. (Central)
"A Deeper Love Inside" by Sister Souljah. Sharp-tongued, quick-witted Porsche worships her sister Winter. Cut from the same cloth as her father, Richy Santiaga, Porsche is also a natural-born hustler. Passionate and loyal to the extreme, she refuses to accept her new life in group homes, foster care, and juvenile detention after her family is torn apart. Porsche - unique, young, and beautiful - cries as much as she fights and uses whatever she has to reclaim her status. Unselfish, she pushes to get back everything that ever belonged to her wealthy, loving family. In A Deeper Love Inside readers will encounter their favorite characters from The Coldest Winter Ever, including Winter and Midnight. Sister Souljah's soulful writing will again move your heart and open your eyes to a shocking reality. (Central)
Adult Non-fiction:
"The 8 Hour Diet" by David Zinczenko. In just 6 weeks you're going to have your best body ever. You'll be leaner, healthier, and more energetic. You'll have the flat, firm belly you've always wanted. You'll sleep better, think more clearly. You'll look younger, feel younger, and dramatically cut your risk of the major diseases of our time. You'll lose weight faster than ever - as much as 5 pounds a week - without restricting calories or giving up your favorite foods. How is this possible? Because the leading researchers in the field of health, wellness, and weight loss have discovered a new way of eating, one that's based not on what you eat but on when you eat. The secret: Eat to your heart's content, but only during a set time period each day - just as the human body evolved to do. The 8-Hour Diet is not only the easiest weight-loss plan ever created - it's also the most effective. (Central)
"Jump Up And Say!" by Linda Goss. For centuries, when people have come together they have told stories that pass along wisdom, invoke ancestors, celebrate family, protest injustice, and entertain through laughter. Jump Up And Say! features more than seventy stories about the wide range of the Black experience, including traditional tales from Africa and the West Indies. Collected here are family stories and moral fables, ghost stories and tales rich in humor, as well as raps and rhymes, memoirs and songs, and stories and poems about freedom, protest, and change. In this collection, voices spanning centuries, continents, and cultures blend to celebrate the African-American storytelling tradition. (Central)

An official with Biden's office told CNN that the vice president and his granddaughter are fans of Katy's music, and he invited her to stop by and say hello while she's in D.C.
Last week, Katy posted a photo of herself with Clinton at a signing for the former secretary of state's new book, Hard Choices , and wrote that she offered to write Clinton a theme song for her potential run for president in 2016. Clinton responded via Twitter, "Well that's not a Hard Choice. You already did! Keep letting us hear you Roar."
Katy performed at the Verizon Center in Washington, D.C., on Tuesday night. She'll be back at the venue Wednesday night.

Summary: In an ideal world where man and robots coexist, someone or something has destroyed the powerful Swiss robot Mont Blanc. Elsewhere a key figure in a robot rights group is murdered. The two incidents appear to be unrelated...except for one very conspicuous clue - the bodies of both victims have been fashioned into some sort of bizarre collage complete with makeshift horns placed by the victims' heads. Interpol assigns robot detective Gesicht to this most strange and complex case - and he eventually discovers that he too, as one of the seven great robots of the world, is one of the targets.
