The Adversaries en
Bud's first case as a newly sworn in JAG attorney is to defend his father, a retired Navy Chief who's been accused of having been involved in defrauding the Navy when he was in charge of Ship's Stores. Though the two have been estranged, Bud feels a strong obligation to his father, who specifically requested him to be his attorney. Harm is the designated prosecutor, which spooks Bud, as he knows he's going up against the best. [ - ]

UC San Francisco scientists working in the lab used a chemical found in an anti-wrinkle cream to prevent the death of nerve cells damaged by mutations that cause an inherited form of Parkinsons disease. A similar approach might ward off cell death in the brains of people afflicted with Parkinsons disease, the team suggested in a study reported online in the journal Cell on August 15.
The achievement marks a pharmacologic milestone as the first highly specific targeting of a member of an important class of enzymes called kinases to increase rather than to inhibit their activity, according to UCSF chemist Kevan Shokat, PhD, the senior scientist on the study. The research raises hope that similar pharmaceutical strategies might be used for combatting other diseases, including diabetes and cancer, he said.
Mutations that cause malfunction of the targeted enzyme, PINK1, are directly responsible for some cases of early-onset Parkinsons disease. Loss of PINK1 activity is harmful to the cells power plants, called mitochondria, best known for converting food energy into another form of chemical energy used by cells, the molecule ATP.
In Parkinsons disease, poorly performing mitochondria have been associated with the death of dopamine-producing nerve cells in a region of the brain called the substantia nigra, which plays a major role in control of movement. Loss of these cells is a hallmark of Parkinsons disease and the cause of prominent symptoms including rigidity and tremor.
A UCSF team led by Shokat, a Howard Hughes Medical Institute Investigator, used the chemical, called kinetin, to increase mutant PINK1 enzyme activity in nerve cells to near normal levels.
In light of the fact that mutations in PINK1 produce Parkinsons disease in humans, the finding that kinetin can speed mutated PINK1 activity to near normal levels raises the possibility that kinetin may be used to treat these patients, Shokat said.
The researchers also found that, in nerve cells with normal PINK1, kinetin boosted enzyme activity beyond typical levels. This finding may be relevant for the most common forms of Parkinsons disease, in which PINK1 is not mutated, because a previous study showed that similar overactivity of PINK1 can slow the development of abnormal movement in a fruit-fly model of Parkinsons disease caused by another defect. This defect is elevated production of the protein alpha-synuclein, also a cause of some inherited cases of Parkinsons disease.
The demonstration in the new study that PINK1 can be boosted in human nerve cells that lack PINK1 mutations therefore suggests that kinetin might also have therapeutic potential in common cases of Parkinsons disease in which PINK1 is not mutated, Shokat said.
Parkinsons disease is the second most common neurodegenerative disease after Alzheimers disease, and the 14th leading cause of death in the United States, according to the U.S Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Current treatments primarily aim to boost availability of dopamine to brain regions where dopamine-producing nerve cells have been lost.
Although many drugs that inhibit the activity of kinases have been developed over the past decade, including 15 currently approved to treat cancer, Shokat said none has yet been marketed to directly boost activity of a kinase.
The breakthrough in revving up PINK1 activity pharmacologically stemmed from Shokats unconventional approach. He targeted the enzymes substrate, a molecule that binds to an enzyme and undergoes a quick chemical transformation as a result. PINK1 uses ATP as a substrate, and the chemical reaction helps PINK1 in turn drive the activation of another enzyme, called Parkin.
Both of these enzymes are among a small number that previously have been strongly linked to Parkinsons disease. PINK1 and Parkin act together to monitor the health of mitochondria, and help trigger repair or disposal of damaged mitochondria within the cells, thereby promoting cell survival.
Therapeutic approaches for enhancing the activity of PINK1 had not been considered, because scientists had not conceived of the idea of developing a new substrate for the enzyme, Shokat said.
We found that a small molecule, called KTP, speeds chemical reactions catalyzed by PINK1 better than ATP, the natural substrate. That kind of better-than-natural response is essentially unheard of.
KTP is too big to fit into other kinases, Shokat said, but PINK1 has a larger ATP pocket to hold KTP.
After discovering the potential of KTP, the researchers then determined that kinetin is converted to KTP within cells. Experimentally, kinetin, which can cross blood vessels to get into the brain, has been given by mouth to treat a rare, genetic, neurological disease called familial dysautonomia.
Other researchers on the UCSF study include graduate student Nicholas Hertz, PhD; post-doctoral fellows Martin Sos, PhD and Amandine Berthet, PhD; UCSF faculty members Ken Nakamura, MD, PhD from the Gladstone Institute, and Kurt Thorn, PhD, and Al Burlingame, PhD.
The research was funded by the National Institutes for Health and by the Michael J. Fox Foundation.
Hertz and Shokat are inventors on a patent application related to kinetin and PINK1. UCSF has licensed the patent application to Mitokinin LLC, and Hertz and Shokat are cofounders and members of the company.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers Being Patient at CB
TAMPA -- The network of pro and college talent evaluators that came together to form ESPN's Scouts Inc. graded out more than 2,500 NFL players, including 187 cornerbacks.
If you scroll down that list of corners you eventually will find, at No. 30, the biggest reason the Tampa Bay Buccaneers have yet to fill their need for cornerback help by signing a free agent.

The error source is the XS_VERSION_BOOTCHECK macro in XSUB.h. If I read the code correctly, it's comparing the floating point number given to DynaLoader::bootstrap() in Hash/Util.pm against the XS_VERSION definition passed to the gcc in the Perl build; from the armhf build log of perl 5.12.3-7 [1]: cc -c -D_REENTRANT -D_GNU_SOURCE -DDEBIAN -fno-strict-aliasing -pipe -fstack-protector -I/usr/local/include -D_LARGEFILE_SOURCE -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 -O2 -g -DVERSION=\"0.07\" -DXS_VERSION=\"0.07\" -fPIC "-I../.." -DPERL_EXT Util.c It looks like the bootstsrap() argument gets truncated to 0 somehow. I can't see how this could happen and what it has to do with fakechroot, but floating point conversions are involved and the XSUB.h code changed quite a bit between 5.10 and 5.12.

How to Not Be Bored when You Have Nothing to Do
Edited by Bluecheese, Martyn P, Rob S, Zachith and 201 others
Ever been lying around all day and just thinking, "I'm so bored!"? Well, read on to make sure it doesn't happen again!
Edit Steps
1Pick your favorite TV, film, or book character, and imagine what they would do if they were with you right at that moment, e.g. James Bond. Firstly, he'd enter in a really cool way; smashing through the roof, guns blazing, shooting the baddies behind you, etc. How would you react? What would you say? What if he wanted the pen you had in your pocket? Why would he want it? Does it contain radioactive substances? Maybe it's McGruber (from the SNL skits) and he needs to defuse a bomb! You can make up whole plot lines inadvertently. You never know. If you write it down, you could end up being an author someday.Ad
2Sing! Hold notes for as long as you can, or just sing a song you love.
3Think about animals, sports, or anything you like and search it on the web. Here are some fun, random ideas to search: ice cream, toast, glue, tigers, and much more.
4Look up new words in a dictionary, study them, and then try to write them down without making a mistake. With a huge, old, unabridged dictionary, endless possibilities for learning are at hand. Look up "genius." You could be surprised at its original definition! Eventually, other words will keep catching your eye and you won't be able to stop reading definitions.
5See how flexible you are. Do somersaults, cartwheels, whatever you can to stretch your body (but don't hurt yourself, please). If you don't know how, learn! it is a good way!
6Exercise! It's good for you. Even if it's only a few jumping-jacks or push-ups. You may not particularly enjoy exercising, but find something you enjoy, such as dancing, yoga, or running.
7Pretend that someone you love will move away soon. Go to them and tell them how much they mean to you. It will make them feel great.
8Do some exercise - sit-ups, press-ups and leg raises can all be done in the comfort of your living room.
9Write a song. If you don't know how to play any instruments, learn!
10Go outside and look around. Even if it's the neighborhood you've lived in your whole life, try going in the woods, and look for old tree-houses or things you had not noticed before. It can be amazingly relaxing to just sit and watch the birds and think about everything, or don't even think at all.
11Spy on someone. Yes, it may seem childish, but just peek around corners to see what people are doing. You may get busted, but at least you won't be bored anymore!
12Walk to the store. Buy yourself a special treat. But not too many sweets, or else you'll have to go to the dentist!
13Do any chores your parents ask you to. It will make them very happy to see you are responsible.
14Do homework. Yes, it's boring but you have to do it anyway.
15Do puzzle books or newspaper columns like Sudoku, crosswords, or riddles.
16Read the paper, a good book, a magazine etc.
17Volunteer. You will be establishing a good habit that will serve you for life.
18Watch a movie.
19Play a game, or, even better, make one up! Use cards, dice, dominoes, Lite-Brit pegs, bingo balls...
20Open Microsoft Sam and try to make him pronounce soy. It sounds pretty funny.
21Try to see how long you can hold your breath.
22Edit Wikihow! Create an account if you haven't already got one, and edit, expand and start articles.
23Get on Facebook and add people.
24View random articles on Wikihow.
25Play a fun game on the Xbox, or even better play a free online, educational dinosaur game like My Dinos
26Tweet on Twitter.
27Pick your favorite childhood characters and see if you could "diagnose" them with any mental disorder. Like Eeyore, for example, sometimes seems to have chronic depression.
28If you have a younger family member or friend, play teacher with them! You're the teacher and you teach the younger one, then you exchange the roles
29Look up interesting facts that no one cares about. These are facts you probably never knew!
30Ride your bike if you have one
31If you're right handed, teach yourself to be a lefty. If you're a lefty, teach yourself to be a righty!
32Build a fort out of pillows and blankets.
33Try on all of your clothes. This passes a lot of time and is especially fun with friends.
34With whatever ingredients you have in your house, put together and create a yummy snack.
35Walk up and down your street while listening to music.
36Optimize your computer by deleting old files and organizing others into folders.
37Learn to draw with your feet!
38Type things into Google Translate and have them played aloud. See how many funny things you can make it say
39Play "Jetpack Joyride" if you have. .Ad
Edit Tips
- Call a friend and see if they can go to your place and hang out.
- Watch TV or just go to sleep or if you have a pet play with it.
- Listen to the radio and sing/dance.
- Take pictures of yourself doing ridiculous faces.
- Create a brand new game.
- Make something as in get some cardboard and paper and make something like a new invention.
- If you have a pet spend time and play with them, the odds are they're just as bored as you are.
- Practice your drawing skills. Draw anything around you. Remember, many great artists were fascinated with simple objects in still lifes!
- Make a face mask.
- Play Pocket God, Angry Birds, or any game which does not involve much critical thinking.
- Play air guitar.
- Go to a random Wikipedia or wikiHow article, read it, and then click on links to dig deeper into the subject.
- Sing as loudly as you want any song you like and record yourself. You might be amazed at what you hear.
- Play Dress Up.
Edit Warnings
- Be careful when you are doing these things.
- Be careful with exercising.
- Don't pressure others into doing these things if they don't want to do them.
- Always get permission from your parent/guardian, especially if you're young.
- Don't do something you are not comfortable doing.
- Never try something you think would be fun but know is not.
- Don't eat your way out of boredom.
- Keep your distance from strangers when trying these activities.

Leon McKenzie insists the opportunity to work with Ian Sampson again was the key reason why he has signed for Corby Town.
The experienced striker, who retired from the professional game at the end of last year following a spell with Kettering Town, has become the club's latest recruit ahead of the new Blue Square Bet North campaign.
McKenzie suffered from a recurring knee problem that forced him to quit the pro game but he firmly believes the part-time element will work in his favour at Steel Park, where he will link up with his former Northampton Town boss Ian Sampson.
Speaking to John Dunham from the Northants Evening Telegaph McKenzie said; "The chance to work with Ian Sampson again, that's the main reason why I am here. He gave me a call and, even though there are other things I am doing, this is a chance for me to get back into football.
"I will be able to work with the young lads in the squad on and off the pitch and the part-time element means I will be able to play football on a Saturday and hopefully nick a goal or two.
"There won't be the same intensity as there is with being a full-time professional and that's what I need.
"This is an opportunity for me to work with younger players and see what I can do to help.
"Corby is a club that I want to see push on towards the Conference and if I can help to do that then great."

LANSING — The threat from a metallic green beetle continues to spread throughout ash trees in the Great Lakes region.
Many ash already are dropping leaves or changing color earlier this year than usual — both mechanisms that trees use to cope with drought, said Deborah McCullough, a forest entomologist at Michigan State University.
"It's possible some insect populations could increase next summer as a result of this year's drought, but that is just really hard to predict," she said.
It doesn't seem like emerald ash borers will be leaving the region any time soon, experts say.
"Michigan has the worst infestation," said Robert Mangold, associate deputy chief for research and development at the Forest Service. It's so bad in fact, that this year the agency stopped surveying Michigan for the invasive beetle.
Every county in Michigan is now infected with the ash borer, Mangold said.
And McCullough said, "Conservatively, there's probably 80 million dead ash trees in the southern half of Michigan's Lower Peninsula alone. There's limited funding to do those kinds of surveys, so they're concentrating on the states that don't have significant outbreaks yet."
Western forests last year experienced a decline in deadly pests like the mountain pine beetle, which damaged 3 million fewer acres than in 2010, but the emerald ash borer continues to thrive in the East, according to the Forest Service.
"The ash borer is the most destructive insect that's ever invaded North America," said McCullough. "It kills urban trees, landscape trees, forest trees and is affecting every species of ash in North America."
As of 2011, the beetle had invaded all eight Great Lake states and Ontario, according to the report.
Mangold said pesticide injections can save individual trees, but it's not a realistic method to treat vast forests.
"It's beyond eradication in most areas, especially in the Great Lakes," he said. "We are working on biological controls and management techniques that tree farmers can use, but we are concerned about our ash resource.
"We're trying to manage the pests but it just continues to spread," Mangold said.
The ash borer spreads mostly by flying. But the Great Lakes are also particularly vulnerable because they often hide in wood packing material used to stabilize vessel cargo. Regulations are in place that require using pesticides to kill the invasive bugs, but they aren't foolproof, Mangold said. "There's so much trade coming in that sometimes things get through," he said.
The beetle can spread in moving firewood and by traveling long distances with trees purchased from local nurseries.
The good news is that while destructive insects like the ash borer dominate the Great Lakes region, others like the gypsy moth have rapidly decreased. The moth defoliated less than 5,000 acres in 2011, compared with 1.2 million acres the year before, according to the Forest Service study.
The significant decrease is likely a result of the successive wet springs of the past few years, Mangold said.

Everyone knows a meat lover. Why should they eat horrible food? Meat lovers should enjoy beef from natural grass fed sources. The Paleo diet, for example, needs good food like our meat and organic produce for the best results.
"I have never tasted beef so delicious in my life! I marinated the organic sirloin tips in ground fresh ginger, garlic, onions, and Braggs Amino Acids (Soy Sauce) for about 15 minutes. My Husband grilled it to perfection, about 12 minutes on each side on a high heat and served it medium rare. The kids & my Husband ate the whole thing…but, I did get a little taste. The amazing thing is, later on that evening, I looked at the plates and there was absolutely NO FAT, nothing, not even a little! I will never feed my family that store-bought garbage ever again."
Sirlion Tips meat is part of the short loin section. It's where Filet Mignon & Porterhouse come from.
You've never tasted anything like our Sirloin Tips Steak. They are $12.95/lb and they come in 2.5lb vacpacks that really last a long time and taste great too! Call or email to place your order. 877-565-3239

Stoner Rock is the fuzzed-out step-child of hard rock and heavy metal, often with hints of pyschedelic and blues rock as well as doom metal. Songs typically feature a bass-heavy groove, detuned guitars and mind-expanding lyrics (if there are any, that is).

The Work Of Zina Nicole Lahr

The Accurate Source To Find Transcript To The Work Of Zina Nicole Lahr."
[The Work Of Zina Nicole Lahr]
[Zina Nicole Lahr (February 13, 1990 - November 20, 2013)] Source: LYBIO.net
Hello, everyone my name is Zina Lahr; I'm from Ouray, Colorado. I circumnavigate the areas of California as well. And this is my room and I like to make things, I suppose you could say I have a self diagnosed condition called CCD it's Creative Compulsive Disorder, where I have to make stuff all the time, with whatever I have around me, so if it's trash or junk or things that people would normally throw away, I try to find ways to re-fabricate them into something useful and beautiful.
I like taking stuff and doing the unexpected with it, this is a old parasol it was at an antique store, it was falling apart, I decided and I was going to stick some lights in it, because I needed a flashlight, why have just a flashlight, when you can have a lighted parasol with a 100 LEDs in it. So I put this in there. I love making robots, one of my favorite things to make is robots.
I love learning about kinetics and I love gathering any kind of information on how things move and applying it to either the realms of animation or robotics or mechanics or even puppetry.
I made this tarantula for a TV show, me and a team of three other people constructed these, these leg systems out of zip ties of poolables (floating noodle). It had working mouth parts, mandibles that could raise up and down and jointed legs that were puppetted by eight rods.
[Zina Nicole Lahr] Source: LYBIO.net
I would say that I am inspired by real life creatures, when I make puppets.
The project of Moving On was one of my favorite projects, we were doing it for these people in Africa, that they had seen hardship and trial.
I decided to make a crane out of watercolor paper, that I glued together and sowed and I made a base armature out of wire, that I soldered together, I sowed all of its feathers on its arms, with just tiny stitches.
As I animated the crane, moving its arms up, every feather would fall down naturally, and I watched a ton of videos on African Grey Cranes and how they moved and I applied that to my stop-motion process.
[Zina Nicole Lahr] Source: LYBIO.net
I made this Sea Monster named Catalyst out of chavant clay and wire, I basically wrapped the wire into an armature and added the clay to it.
I was mostly inspired to make Catalyst by looking at creatures that were already existent, anything from like a praying mantis to some lobsters, to even pre-historic animals like trilobites for her back plates on her.
I like integrating art into anything that I do, including, what I wear, so everyday and I put on a different outfit and I like to make myself my own canvas, I wear goggles because you just never know, when you are going to need goggles, it's good to have eye safety and I'm always ready with my eye safety.
I don't even remember the first time, I started making something, but I just think I've always made things, and it's been my passion in my heart to bring life to something inanimate.
[Zina Nicole Lahr] Source: LYBIO.net
I just see everyday as a new opportunity to bring art to people and if I can do that by what I wear then I'm going to do it in a every way possible.

The Dalai Lama presides over Tibetan Homes Foundation's Golden Jubilee celebrations

MUSSOORIE, September 17: Tibetan spiritual leader His Holiness the Dalai Lama today presided over the golden jubilee celebrations of Tibetan Homes Foundation School in Mussoorie.
Thousands of students and former alumni of the school attended the commemorations marked by the release of the golden jubilee souvenir book, presentation of the school report and traditional song and dance performances.
Other guests at the ceremony included Sakya Trizin Rinpoche, Helmut Kutin, Former President of SOS Kinderdorf International, Kasur Jetsun Pema, Ngawang Phelgyal, Tibetan Chief Justice Commissioner, and Ganesh Joshi, Member of Legislative Assembly.
The Dalai Lama in his address thanked all the contributors in the School's 50th anniversary commemorations.
"The Homes Foundation has asked us all not to lose hope, but to keep our homeland in mind, which is very good advice," His Holiness said.
Speaking on the growing relevance of Buddhism, the Tibetan spiritual leader noted, "today, while we learn from science, scientists are learning about the mind from us."
"These days, it seems a lot of people seem to think Buddhism is only about prayer, when it is actually about study and maturing the mind. In order to practise you have to take account of reality, both of the external world and especially the inner world," the Dalai Lama said.
"This is what makes our heritage so valuable and what we can be proud about."
The 77-year-old Tibetan leader who arrived in Mussoorie soon after his escape from Tibet told the audience that the "trouble in Tibet is that uninvited guests arrived armed with guns and other weapons and set themselves up there."
"Despite Tibet having its own system of administration and economic management, they dismissed everything we did as backward, to the extent that they would almost try to teach us how to eat tsampa," the Dalai Lama said.
"They do not take a broad view, seeking really only to control Tibet. On the other hand, when they understand the situation, many Chinese intellectuals support our position, while the increasing numbers of Chinese Buddhists are taking a sympathetic interest in Tibetan Buddhism. In Tibet spirits are high and we in exile are free."

His Holiness also recalled his memory of coming into exile and reaching Mussoorie, his first exile home in the third week of April 1959.
"I was suffering from dysentery when I reached the Indian border and after taking some rest in Bomdila, took the train from Tezpur," the Dalai Lama said. "After I reached Birla House (His Holiness' residence in Mussoorie), I could hear the sound of the train and felt like I was still in the train."
"I can never forget Mussoorie because we reached here during our hardest time and stayed here for around one year," His Holiness added.
The Tibetan spiritual leader also spoke on the initial years of the Tibetan Homes Foundation and how it was established.
After lunch, His Holiness viewed a photo exhibition covering the 50 years of the Tibetan Homes Foundation and visited the Wynberg Allen School in Mussoorie.

8.8 drum brake hardware
Anyone have any 8.8 drum brake parts? I got an 8.8 yesterday that needs new hardware; I don't need the drums, they are still usable.
Please let me know ASAP, I am putting the axle in Saturday morning. 231-736-9539 is the best way to contact me. Thanks! -Kevin Last edited by greenmeanie; May 19th, 2011 at 08:01 AM. |

I frequent Total Wine and Bevmo but they don't seem to carry to many unique beers or the hard to find beers.
I also recommend Hi-Time in Costa Mesa. I was there last Friday, and did a review if you're interested in reading it. You can read reviews from others as well. http://beeradvocate.com/beer/profile/1405 You're not going to find Three Floyds, Hill Farmstead, etc., but they do carry more "harder to find" beers than Total Wine or BevMo. For me, they sell singles, which is a big plus. From what I hear, they sometimes store their better stuff in the back, so you might want to ask if you don't find something you're interested in. I have to try out Hacienda Beverage. I found one bottle of Alpine at Hi-Time, but I'd like to try some of their better stuff, and sounds like Hacienda might have them.
Haven't been to Hacienda Bev yet. But Hi-Times used to get Duet, Nelson or Pure in one case at a time. But it's getting less and less these days. Mr Kegs would get Alpine once in a blue moon too. But these days it's very unlikely. Some of the Whole Foods in OC would also see Alpine's IPA's once in a blue moon. I'll make the drive to Alpine 4 times a year to get my IPA fix.
The bbq is top notch. Visit the brewpub for grub and beer by the pint. Then walk ten steps over to buy bottles and growler fills. Brewery is closed Sun and Mon. The brewpub is closed on Mon. Plan accordingly! As a matter of fact I ran out of my Alpine stash. I'll be visiting Alpine sometime in the near future to restock, after I visit Kern River.
When it re-opens.... Monarch Beach market in South County. They can be slightly over priced at times, but will have some keepers also. My dad informed me that they are renovating, or doing some work, but they are scheduled to open back up in February. pro tip: Buy some good beer, and if you aren't from the area, drive a mile down the street to salt creek for a sunset at the top of the hill. If you are feeling adventurous.... put it in a road soda container and enjoy said beer during sunset.
Stearns in Long Beach, not OC but close. Whole Foods do pretty good too, gotta ask for everything in the back. Vendome Fullerton is legit too.
Thanks for the info. If hi-times has Alpine occasionally I'll have to make a trip for sure. Good sign they may have something the big retail stores don't. A San Diego brewery trip would be awesome. Hit up alpine, stone and Avery. Could probably do that in a day if I got a good DD.
If you're asking where the treasure is hidden, you're not searching hard enough. And Avery is in Boulder, CO, not San Diego, CA.
Hi-Time in Costa Mesa is great, but I'll second the statement regarding asking as they often keep limited beers in the back.
How often do limited beers last in the back at hi times? Haven't hit them up yet, but they aren't too far from my work. Do I need to know a codeword/secret handshake?
They don't last long in the back. A few years ago it used to be a lot easier to get "rare" beer at Hi-times. They just sell out of it so fast. I remember when they used to put Duet out on the shelves. Now, they don't even put out Just Outstanding. It's a bummer, but that's what happens when you run a business right(You sell a lot of beer). It just so happens that it means that I can't get "rare" beer as easily anymore. That being said, their selection of beer is awesome, and the staff (Alex) are very knowledgeable too. Definitely still worth stopping by.
Hola Amigos! im from hacienda beverage if youre looking for alpine, we do get it in ever so often. but usually a case of something (duet, nelson, pure hoppiness) and once it is posted on facebook, its gone within hours. the others like stout, willy, alpine ale, or red usually last about a week. Cheers!!!
I visited your shop for the first time last night and asked about Alpine too. Hey, I saw photos of Hopslam, BCBS, Coffee Bender and Wisconsin Ale on your webpage. I forgot to ask yesterday. Did you have them in stock, at some point, as well? You have a nice place. Looks like I need to follow your Facebook page regularly. Or, do you have an email list to send out email blasts when hard to find beers come in?
sorry i dont have an email list, just facebook (/haciendabev) and instagram (choobacca_haciendabev) for now. most of the non distributed brews are from own trade collection, randomly, i will bring some things out and put them on the shelves so people can try them, but i dont post those. hopefully bcbs comes in march
I work at Trader Joe's in Brea around the corner from Hacienda Beverage. Made my first trip there last week after hearing about it from a co-worker and spent over $90 in under 20 minutes. haha He's got some great stuff in his collection. I can't wait to go back in a week or so when all of this is finished! Thanks, Frank!
El cerrito liquor in corona ca http://m.facebook.com/pages/El-Cerr...El-Cerrito-Liquor-Market/146706308691829&_rdr
I also gotta recommend Korker Liquor in Corona Del Mar. Not the biggest selection in the world, but they always try and get some of the more limited releases and it doesnt get hammered like many of the more popular spots http://www.facebook.com/#!/KorkerLiquors?fref=ts
wholefoods market in newport beach. they have an aisle of craft beers follow them on instagram @wfmspecialty for latest beers they have on hand

Food was great and staff was extremely attentive. It was hard to enjoy our anniversary dinner because we couldn't hear each other talk it was so loud in there. We were sitting right next to each other. We spent quite a bit and could've went to Hyde park or Mitchell's steakhouse and spent the same amount of money with just as good of not better food, but it would've been more intimate and more quiet.
Been a while - but still absolutely one of the finest in Columbus! Excellent food. Excellent service. Dependable!
The food was great and the service was right on. The building has character and you can tell it's not a cookie cutter place.
I had a friend from NYC coming to town and needed a restaurant with good food, nice atmosphere and happening. On. Friday night, Lindey's hit the mark on all 3.
I had the opportunity to dine at Lindey's and WOW it was simply outstanding. My wife went with another couple and our table was ready upon arrival and we had prompt drink service. For appetizers we had the mussels (outstanding sauce)! The mushroom soup which was the soup of the day, has an excellent taste! Our entree included: Ribeye with Mac n Cheese and the Grouper (which was their special entree for the evening). Usually a ribeye has some fatty part, but not this steak! It was cooked perfectly and the seasoning was excellent! My wife raved about the fish dish with has great sauces in the dish. My wife and I are foodies and this resturant is now in our Top 3 resturants!! Fantastic meal and we will dine here again when visiting town.
Our first time at Lindey's, it was wonderful, Jennifer was our server and she made it a really enjoyable experience. We will return again for sure!
Another nice experience at one of Columbus' best. Always reliably tastey. Thank you for continuing your good work!
This has always been one of our favorite restaurants. Tucked away in Germantown, it is quaint and appealing. The food is GREAT, the staff is GREAT and the bar tenders are the BEST. We need to go there more. Highly recommended to all.
We had our wedding anniversary dinner Saturday evening. Everything was great. We have been to Lindey's many times, including the day of our wedding 27 years ago. We will always go there...it's just a great place...the food, the energy...like being at a New York restaurant. We love it.
This has been a fabulous restaurant for 30 years, always consistently good.
Had our anniversary dinner at Lindey's the other night and it was perfect! From the moment we walked in the Hostess greeted us and wished us a Happy Anniversary, no less than 3-4 employees mentioned our special occasion. Our server was excellent, very friendly and personable. She even brought a candle to our table and bought us dessert. The food (cup of black bean soup, wedge salad, French Onion soup, crab cakes, and filet mignon) was incredible. We sat in the main bar room which was noisy but not obnoxious. Overall an amazing evening! Highly recommend to anyone!
Was a wonderful meal with fantastic service. We will go back again.
We visited Lindey's in search of a location for my son's rehearsal dinner. The atmosphere is exactly what we were looking for - elegant and with private rooms for various size groups. The food was wonderful and they were able to make a few alterations to meet our desire for vegetarian/vegan fare.
We took our son and his roommate out for a nice dinner - what a find! The boys were in heaven. Ribeye was awesome. So were the fillet tournados and grouper were fantastic. Tuna tartare was melt in your mouth. Service and ambiance were impeccable.
We came from Cleveland to celebrate moms bday. We had a wonderful experience
We had a party of 6 for dinner before seeing the Blue Man Group. Food and drinks were great and the ambiance was perfect! I would recommend Lindey's for any occasion!
Rich, well-prepared foods in generous (but not ridiculous) portions. We both had steak and it was expertly cooked, to be sure. I felt like Gordon Ramsay would feel at home eating here. We were seated fairly close to the door, which was fine because it was a cool-but-not-cold night. I wouldn't want to sit there in the dead of winter, though. Service was good, but not particularly fast. We don't expect really fast service -- it's find dining, not fast casual -- but the waiter could have been a bit more present. I don't know if we'll go back anytime soon, mostly because there are sooooo many local restaurants in Columbus to try out. If there were fewer, I think we'd be back sooner.
I made a reservation a month in advance for a Sunday night dinner celebration. We were directed to the table in the corner next to the kitchen which was set up for five. I asked the hostess to move us because my husband has a hearing problem. (I had this experience before at a fine dining restaurant and the activity and noise made it the worse and most stressful experience ever). So she sat us on the other side of the restaurant in the corner next to the servers station! As we were leaving, I noticed how BEAUTIFUL the dining room was, and it was set up mostly for tables of four. That being said, we have been to Lindeys many times because the food is OUTSTANDING! We'll just stick to small parties!
Lindey's is an iconic Columbus restaurant. The food, atmosphere and service are second to none! The menu is always fresh and current and the atmosphere is simply beautiful and in character of the German Village area. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!
Lindy's has been a German Village institution since the early 80's, and it is nice to see the menu, cuisine and service has been maintained to the high standards established at its beginning. Still one Columbus' finest.
My wife and I dined for her birthday and we had a lovely time. The only complaint I would offer is that the noise level was off the charts for this type of dinner. We were in the back room and in the center so that may have played a part but it was hard to even hear the waiter (and we're not that old!). All in all a great time, but if you are looking for quiet/romantic you might want to be specific in your seating request.
My favorite restaurant in Columbus. It is definitely one of the best places in the city and great for a special occasion or just a night out.
Filet Mignon was the best along with garlic mashed potatoes and superior service. We arrived early for our 5:45 PM reservation and were seated right away. By 6:00 PM the restaurant was full, but the noice level was remarkably moderate to quiet. German Village can be tough to find parking, but complimentary valet parking is available, and recommended. A wonderful dining experience!
Overall, not bad. Probably one of the best filets that I have had. Service on the other hand was so-so. Saw my server once and that was when I ordered.
We had an 11:45 seating last Tuesday at Lindey's but arrived early. We were cheerfully taken to our table right away. The restaurant is quaint and charming and surprisingly larger than one might think... The serving staff was superb, though the Valet was a bit brusque. Perhaps they prefer parking Jaguars to my Tribeca? Our disappointment began with the house salad. It was overly fussy with too much dressing. (I had the Buttermilk, my partner the Champagne Balsamic.) We ordered the house special, Grilled Mahi Mahi on a bed of Brussels Sprouts slaw with tiny potatoes. The entire entree was tasteless and watery. I'm convinced the fish had been frozen. And that's unacceptable. Again, staff was superb; food was mediocre.
Great food. Great service. Nice variety on menu. Very handy for events in downtown Columbus. Not much parking in German Village, but free valet parking service made it very easy to get in and out.
We heard so much about it, that we selected it for anniversary. We were so happy that we did. My husband selected the tournadoes of beef with scalloped potatoes for his entrée. I opted for the special of the day,halibut, which came with a medley of sautéed brussels sprouts, onions, potatoes, and a few other vegetables. The beef was so tender you literally could cut it with a fork, just delicious. My halibut was cooked exactly as ordered, and the vegetables were absolutely delicious. As a special treat, we were given a cream Brulé for our dessert. Sadly,the Brulé was a bit too browned, which was our only complaint of the entire meal. The whole restaurant was very vibrant and full of various diners,making it a very nice experience.
SIncerely enjoyed our visit to LIndey's; server was perfectly doting; food was outstanding; only negative was spying a dessert on our way out that we wished we had ordered. Next visit!
In main dining room at 8 pm it is far too noisy to carry on a conversation unless you are sitting right next to someone.
Best Ribeye steak that I have had in 10 years and I love steak. We will be going back. Everything from the friendly service to the outstanding food was just a treat.
Our recent dinner was the first time at Lindey's in a couple of years. As with prior visits, the food was excellent but the noise level was so high that conversation was difficult. Several large groups consistently drowned out the conversations of the smaller tables.
Lindey's once again shows it's a reliable spot for great food. Mussels excellent as always, nice wait staff. Can't go wrong here.
Our first visit and we will return. Food was great and our waitress was excellent, save room for desert.
My wife and I went to Lindey's for a special celebration. The wait staff was excellent, especially our primary server Samantha. Samantha was extremely attentive and was genuinely concerned about the preparation of our food. Proper presentation and temperature of our steaks. My wife's steak came out of the kitchen perfect, mine was a little under done for me, but our Samantha asked us to cut into our food to check the temp, and she had the kitchen make my order perfect to my instructions. Most definitely will be returning soon and I would recommend it highly to friends and family.
Our waitress went out of her way to help my out of state guests find the restaurant. It was a business dinner and the food was amazing and the service was even better. Our gueast from Oklahoma were still talking about the restaurant the next day when I saw them.
We had a party at of seven including two children. Our waitress did a fantastic job taking care of our table. We were celebrating a masters graduation and a birthday. Even though we didn't mention the birthday other than that in conversation, she has overheard and brought out a dessert with a candle. The food was awesome just like we expected it to be. What a fantastic dining experience!!
I took my wife here for our 10th wedding anniversary. I was happy with how friendly the staff were and they treated us great. We had great time. I was also blown away with the staff and how they made our night special with all the special details they did to make our night one to remember. I would and have recommended Lindey's to my friends and family. GREAT JOB TO ALL!!!!
I went with a group of Sisters and Friends for our annual Christmas Party. It was great, we were able to be seated early and service was outstanding.
Lindey's one of our favorite restaurants for years. Had the Columbus Symphony to attend on a Sunday so decided on Lindey's for brunch. Had not been here in awhile but great as ever. Still our favorite in Columbus.
at Lindey's. It's a Columbus institution. A restaurant that has stayed at the top of it's game for these many years must be admired. The menu changes makes every visit a food adventure. This is also the place to see and be seen. The outdoor courtyard is a great place to dine when weather permits.
I am a server at very upscale restaurant where yes is always the answer. I work very hard to make sure everyone feels special when they leave. I know what to expect when I go out to eat and what I should get for my money. I have never had a bad experience at Lindey's, not even a little one. The service and the food are always top notch .My wife and I were celebrating our 2nd year wedding anniversary and chose this place. We came here on our first date, our engagement, her 30th birthday and many more. The ambiance, the food, and the seamless service from start to finish is why I return. The staff always goes out of their way to help you enjoy a lovely evening. This place always make us feel special and I hope it's around forever.
I love the atmosphere here and everything on the menu - it's hard to decide what to eat. It was very busy on this visit and the service was not great - slow and I had to ask for service or flag down a waiter. Would still go back - one of my favorite spots in Columbus.
The food was extremely good but the service was poor. Our server neglected to check back to refill our drinks throughout the meal. When he was flagged down to do his job, he had a very poor attitude.
Loved Lindey's! It makes me feel special and I love the atmosphere and the service. The food is top notch. For years Lindey's has always been a step above and still after all these years it is still a wonderful experience.
always a good choice, good food and service in an elegant setting
Lindey's has been and will continue to be our first choice for celebrating a special occasion or just an evening out. The atmosphere is authentically elegant but also warm and inviting. The cuisine is consistently exceptional delivered with impeccable and friendly service. Lindey's is one of if not the best dining experience in Columbus.
I took my wife here for her birthday. It was excellent. It's not always easy to find good seafood here in the midwest, but it was great here. We each had a bowl of the lobster bisque soup and we had the double crab cake and shrimp and lobster risotto. It was all perfect. The staff were attentive but not bothersome. The portions are small for a restaurant, that is to say they are normal human sized portions, not oversized american portions, which was nice, because it meant we had room for dessert. We had a great time and will definitely be going back.
This was definitely not a last minute fine but at the same time I have to say I was blessed and lucky to stumble accross Lindey's. From the reservation to receiving a call reminding me of my reservation, to the whole experience there, It was all amazing. The staff is amazing and very courteous. I would definitely recommend Lindey's and also add that it is a great romantic spot...just saying :-)
Our visit to Lindys was fantastic! We had our managers Christmas party Saturday night and everyone was completely satisfied with the food, ambience, and especially the service. Excellent!
Not the best choice for a romantic dinner. Everything is perfect except the noise level. If they could find a way to control the decibels with sound deadening art work or panels, they would be even better than they are!

Ah yes! Can you feel that? It's September. And what does that mean? Football is back in season; baseball is in the home stretch; the crispness is in the air; and most importantly, the fall selections of beer are in full swing.
Today, I'm drinking another classic seasonal, limited release by the great brand, Newcastle Brown Ale: Newcastle Werewolf, the fall release, which is available nationwide now through the end of October.
If you're keeping track of my blogs – and let's face it, if you're not, you're missing out on descriptions of some quality beers – you've read about Newcastle's other Limited Edition series of beers, including Summer Ale, Winter IPA and Founders Ale. Much like the summer, winter and spring selections Newcastle is offering, the fall selection, Werewolf, is quite the delight.
But unlike many of the fall seasonal you're going to get across this top-notch craft-brewing nation many of us live in, the Newcastle Werewolf is a fall beer that is following its own rules, all while staying in the guidelines of their own reputation of delivering classy beer for beer drinkers of all classifications.
Remember, this isn't Germany we're talking about. It's Britain. This beer "escaped from Britain," as the slogan on the bottle, and gives you pleasures to your palate from beginning to end of every sip – and start to finish of every 12-ounce bottle.
This "blood" red brew tosses in rye malts which offer up slight berry fruit and roasted caramel notes to this super-drinkable taste-bud treat up front. The use of British-common Fuggle and Golding hops give it a slight bite to provide what seems like a perfect balance you want in a beer. You need that balance – unless we're in Idaho and we're having a hop-barrage IPA, which is also remarkable, but on a totally different level.
I digress. Actually, let's go back to a totally second digression. In the midst of writing up how great this outside-the-box fall seasonal, limited edition beer is, I've finished my first bottle and have moved on, immediately, to my second. Fear not, I don't drink and drive. I drink at home or I drink with a designated driver, and so should you – don't be stupid now.
Newcastle Werewolf comes in at 4.5 percent alcohol by volume, which will allow you to comfortably drink six to 12 beers in one sitting – and you will, because they are that good. The hops bring in a count of 23.4 International Bittering Units, which is modest. But don't fret hop heads, it has enough bite to keep you satisfied when you are taking a break from your 60 to 80 IBU beers.
It's "No Bollocks," as Newcastle Brown Ale tells us. Werewolf is a one-of-a-kind fall seasonal that should certainly be in your refrigerator. Enjoy one as Newcastle United takes down some of the powerhouses of the English Premier League. But get it fast, because it won't be here come Nov. 1. You can find it at select pubs and stores nationwide.
While – spoiler alert – there's no werewolf lurking in the surroundings of Newcastle, the one thing that is as tangible as you and I is none other than the brilliant fall seasonal beer Newcastle Brown Ale is brewing up: Newcastle Werewolf. Enjoy!
Like it? Hate it? Love it? Let me know. I'm sure you'll be pleased though.

I am constructing an iPhone side-scroll video game from the ground up. I have an Enemy model that needs to change the position of an enemy's arms and legs. I need to communicate those changes to the view for display. Should I use an NSTimer inside the model to change those positions, and then have the ViewController observe those changes based on KVO, and have the ViewController send the information to the View, and have the view call setNeedsDisplay? Naturally, I want to have the fastest frame rate possible.
