46% of the UK's online shoppers are planning to leave their Christmas shopping until the last minute this year, despite the majority having little faith in the ability of retailers to deliver in time for the big day.
This stat comes from an online Christmas shopping survey of 1,000 UK consumers carried out for Eptica, which also looked at how retailers were providing information on delivery.
So what can retailers do to appeal to last minute shoppers and reassure them about delivery?

Online shoe retailer Javari has the best user experience of 51 leading e-commerce websites, according to a new study.
Javari, which is an offshoot of Amazon, achieved this thanks to excellent scores for search and navigation, as well as its delivery and returns process.

With the increasingly homogenous offer of online retailers, it is generally agreed that high levels of customer service are more vital than ever.
With this in mind, I'm constantly astounded by the shockingly poor levels of service British consumers are exposed to.

Online retailers continued to improve their performance in terms of delivery last year, with an increase in the speed of delivery, and a greater range of options on offer for customers.
John Lewis picked up Snow Valley's Golden Chariot award for all round delivery excellence, though the 2011 Online Retail Delivery Report did still find some room for improvement.
Some highlights from the report...

The weather in 2010 made front-page news across much of the planet. Washington's storms caused power outages, NYC endured insufferable heat, and the UK was brought to its knees by snow.
With retailers reflecting on their 2010 performance, the effect of the weather on online sales and how marketers can respond is worthy of investigation.

Thanks in part to the snow, more than a quarter of customers received their orders late this Christmas, and almost half of those orders arrived two or more days late.
This is one of the findings of a Christmas delivery survey of UK consumers carried out exclusively for Econsultancy by Toluna.
Some highlights from the survey after the jump...

In the past few years, thanks to retailers and couriers offering more delivery options, deadlines for Christmas delivery have been getting later. However, the snow has thrown a spanner in the works, and some retailers are now bringing these dates forward.
For example, while Amazon had planned to promise Christmas delivery for orders placed up to December 23, it is now unable to offer any guarantees.
Depending where you live, you may still be able to order online and get items delivered by Christmas, but are online retailers informing customers effectively before they begin shopping?

Google introduced Priority Inbox this week, a new feature designed to solve the problem of overloaded inboxes by prioritising the most important and relevant messages.
This new option, currently in beta, splits the user's inbox into three sections, with the 'important and unread' section at the top. Various signals, including who is emailed most frequently, and which emails users tend to open.
This new feature will present new challenges for email marketers as they seek to ensure that their emails get the attention of Gmail users. I've been asking some email marketing experts about the implications of this new feature...

Lake smash Cascade, set records in 70-6 opening win
Published on Wed, Sep 7, 2011 by
By Mike Anderton | Purple And Gold Pigskin Contributing Editor
Read More
Local News
Left to right: Senior captains Brady Pahukoa, Christian Gasca, Jake Nelson, Korey Young and Cody Tupen.
Not bad for openers.
Lake Stevens Vikings kicked off their 2011 football season with a home field 70-6 win over Cascade of Everett (of Wesco South).
Pretty much everything went right for the Vikings, who scored 10 touchdowns in their 11 possessions, enroute to establishing all-time single game records for points (the old record was 63 vs. Stanwood in 1966), points in a half (49), most touchdowns, and widest margin of victory.
Individually, Christian Gasca with three TD receptions tied that record, while several teammates also racked up some eye-popping stats.
Lake's avalanche started slowly before gaining overwhelming momentum. It took the Vikings eight plays to score on their first possession, following Carey Campbell's recovery of a Bruin fumble on the Cascade 43 at 10:09 of the first quarter. Jake Nelson completed a 15-yard pass to Brady Pahukoa on Lake's first play, and Nelson followed that with an 11-yard scramble to set up his own one-yard scoring run. This was to be the first of six touchdowns Nelson accounted for in the first half -- four touchdowns passing and two rushing, covering a total of 275 yards. Nelson did not play in the second half.
Two plays after the kickoff Cascade fumbled again, with Shae Giddens recovering for Lake on the Bruin 40. Nelson teamed with Pahukoa for a one-armed catch for a 12-yard gain and with Christian Gasca who made a nifty cut to the middle for a 13-yard touchdown grab.
Lake's third opening quarter TD covered 46 yards in four plays culminated by Nelson faking a handoff to Giddens then scampering 28 yards for a touchdown. Tanner Sellars' PAT kick was blocked (otherwise he connected on all eight of his tries).
When Cascade QB Larry Baker Bruce went down with a leg injury late in the first quarter it seemed to signal the end for the Bruins, whose body language sagged limply for the remainder of the game.
Lake's next touchdown netted 65 yards in four plays, including Nelson passes to Pahukoa for 17 yards, Gasca for 43 yards, and finally Gasca for a two-yard score. With less than a minute gone in the second quarter it was 27-0.
Four was again the magic number on Lake's next possession. That's how many plays it took to nail another TD to the scoreboard, a 10-yard Nelson to Giddens toss. Nelson, holder for the PAT kick try, instead flipped to Juan Delgado for a two-point conversion and a 35-0 lead at 8:08 before halftime.
It was getting easier. Next time Lake had the ball it scored in THREE plays. Nelson to Pahukoa for 34 yards, Nelson to Andrew Elgean for 20 yards, Giddens for a 28-yard scoring burst up the middle.
Cascade was awarded a gift touchdown on Lake's next possession (the only time Lake didn't score when it had the ball). After Pahukoa's interception gave Lake possession on Cascade's 16, Giddens was stripped of the ball by Steven Rios after an eight-yard gain, Rios returning the fumble 24 yards for a touchdown. Giddens appeared to be down before Rios stole the ball from him, but the touchdown stood. Cascade fumbled the PAT kick try, and Gavin O'Neil and Ryan Simoneaux smothered the attempted two-point run.
Irritating as it may have been to give up a ghost touchdown with just 13 seconds left in the half, it set up a remarkable last-gasp performance by Gasca, who returned the kickoff 50 yards to the Cascade 42, and with two seconds left was on the receiving end of Nelson's "hail Mary." That's 92 yards in two plays in 13 seconds for a touchdown.
Lake's 49-6 halftime lead set up the ridiculous "continuous running time" rule for the final two quarters, in which the clock is stopped only for time outs. With reserves playing in these situations they are deprived of rare playing time and experience. Most starters for the winning team are benched during the second half of blowouts, so it makes no sense to humiliate the losers with such a lame "mercy rule."
While the teams combined to run a mere 30 plays in the second half (compared to 65 in the first half) Lake still had the better of it, outscoring Cascade by 21-0. Delgado carried the ball just twice in the second half, but made the most of his chances, blowing through Cascade's hapless line for scoring blasts of 80 and 41 yards in the third quarter.
Elgean, Nelson's second half replacement, capped the scoring with 8:50 left via a 15-yard run.
Lake ran a total of six offensive plays in the second half, netting 169 yards. For the game, Lake carried the ball 24 times for 285 net yards, while Nelson added 222 yards through the air on 11 of 14 (no interceptions) and four scores. Lake netted 507 total yards for the game to Cascade's 171 and had 20 first down's to Cascade's 10.
Gasca's five catches totalled 114 yards, with 3 TDs. Pahukoa caught four for 78 yards. Nelson rushed for 53 yards in six carries with a pair of TDs, while Giddens netted 55 yards in 11 carries and a touchdown.
Cascade running back Zac Duncan carried 20 times for 77 net yards.
Thirty different Vikings made at least one tackle, topped by Delgado's 10.

The Rapha Roller Race: Culture Clash II
Saturday 17th November 2007
Roller race record falls. It was an amazing night of roller racing and music on Saturday in central London. The courier team came from behind to win the competition, with sometime Rapha model and messenger Seb winning in great style. The long standing Rollapaluza record fell to Simon Jackson with a time of 19.80.
The record was in fact beaten four times as the night progressed as roller techniques were perfected and muscles loosened up.
The night commenced with guests and competitors greeted with a red carpet entrance at the Classic Car Club, where Lamborghinis, Ferraris, Aston Martins and many other beautiful vehicles were on display. The atmosphere was completed with the staging of the racing duels in a boxing ring and live music performed by upcoming band Cyclones.
Culture Clash II saw teams representing London couriers, media folk, cycling journalists and mystery Dutch riders, all climbing into the ring to raise funds for Leuka. When the racing truly got underway in the knockout rounds, the crowd responded: the atmosphere highly charged with spectators cheering in support of their favourite teams and riders.
London's male courier team (placing last at the previous event) bagged a convincing victory in an all courier final. Emma Cairns, from the media team, won the girls' competition in equally convincing manner and sealed the overall victory for the Fireflies over the courier ladies.
Another wonderful night of roller racing in collaboration with Rollapaluza is on the cards for February 2008. More teams and the chance for anyone to test their skills on the rollers. Details to follow.
Limited edition Rapha Roller Race: Culture Clash t-shirts are available for £15.

Sam seemed a little impatient with his communication and three times asked for payment before completing tasks. This made me suspicious of him. But when I stuck to the freelancer procedure, he and his team did come through and deliver good results. I am very satisfied with those results. Well done! :) "

Company Continues Support for the Families of Service Members and Wounded Warriors
WASHINGTON, Oct. 21, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Science Applications International Corporation (SAIC) (NYSE: SAIC) announced today at the Association of the United States Army (AUSA) Annual Meeting and Exposition that it will donate $250,000 to Operation Homefront. As part of SAIC's commitment to continue its support for the families of service members and wounded warriors, this donation builds upon the company's relationship with Operation Homefront, which includes sponsorship of the "Back-to-School Brigade" program.
(Logo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20131008/PH94180LOGO)
Based in San Antonio, Texas, Operation Homefront is a national nonprofit organization that provides emergency assistance to military families. It provides this support from 20 locations directly serving 44 states. During the "Back-to-School Brigade" campaign in September, SAIC aligned with Operation Homefront to deliver more than 6,000 backpacks filled with school supplies for military children across the country.
"Nearly 25 percent of SAIC's workforce are veterans who have served our nation. As a company that works hand-in-hand with our armed services, it's our honor to give back," said Tony Moraco, SAIC CEO and Operation Homefront Board member. "Continuing our support to Operation Homefront hits home with us. This donation will assist Operation Homefront in providing direct services to alleviate a military family's or individual's financial burden, as well as counseling."
Jim Knotts, CEO of Operation Homefront, who will accept the donation from Moraco during the AUSA exposition, said, "this donation will open many opportunities for Operation Homefront to meet the needs of even more service members and their families who are experiencing hardships.
"We are thankful to SAIC for its gift to our organization," continued Knotts. "We look forward to building our relationship with SAIC and joining together on many more initiatives."
The donation to Operation Homefront is scheduled to take place during the AUSA Meeting and Exposition at the SAIC booth (#839) on the tradeshow floor at 11 a.m., Oct. 21. For additional details, please contact Gary Bracken or Lauren Darson.

If over-the-counter products don't work, what can the doctor prescribe for dandruff?
Comment on this
Your physician or dermatologist can recommend prescription-strength shampoos or antifungal and cortisone creams that are stronger than those available over the counter, yet are not too strong to use on the face. There also are cortisone-based liquids, gels, and foams that you can apply to the scalp that won't leave your hair limp and matted. Nonsteroid cream like tacrolimus (Protopic) or pimecrolimus (Elidel) can also help. As with all seborrhea (dandruff) treatments, prescription-strength shampoos and cortisone creams calm down your skin or scalp sensitivity, but they can't stop the seborrhea (dandruff) from coming back. Most people, however, only have to treat their condition from time to time when it becomes itchy or noticeable. A word on eyelashes

Authorities had distributed the 20-year-old man's photo to Capitol police after learning about the online threat, Gov. Scott Walker's administration said in a statement. Police spotted him as he entered the Capitol, where he allegedly told officers he had a molotov cocktail in his backpack.
Police evacuated part of the building, and a bomb squad investigated the backpack outside. Authorities haven't said what was inside the backpack, though no injuries were reported.
Charges are pending, the statement said. Walker's spokesman declined comment.
It's unclear whether the man had political motivations. Police said his Facebook threat wasn't made against a specific individual.
Federal court records show the man filed a short, handwritten lawsuit last month against several entities, including the University of Wisconsin football team and the Dane County sheriff. He said he wanted "my money 989 billion-teillion. ... Equitable distribution. I believe in retribution," but provided no explanation.
State court records show he was charged last month with resisting an officer.
None of the court records indicate the man had an attorney.

The new 24-120 F4 VR is quite good for a "walk around" lens. If money is not an issue the 24/35/50/85 1.4Gs are only second to Leica IMHO. The new 28 & 85mm f1.8Gs have been getting great reviews if you want to save some $.
Of coures the 14-24/24-70/70-200 if2.8 zooms are workhorses and superb, even better than the primes in some areas (CA control).
Or you could just go crazy like me and get them all
I read some reviews on that 14-24mm. Everyone's just nuts about that lens. There was one guy who posted that he switched from Canon to Nikon after 18 years just because of that lens. Most of the reviews also mentioned how heavy the 14-24mm is. Maybe they should mount an RPP 25mm (I know, different things, but funny).
I'll check out the rest too. I was actually considering the fixes 1.4G's, but the prices are crazy.
Hope the Nikon Epic mount comes out. Is the only option the Optitek ProLock?
Have you had a look at or heard anything about the 50mm f/1.8 G versus the f/1.4 G?
After doing some comparison shots between the D800 and my old 7D, I've decided to sell the 7D as I just can't shoot with it anymore. The images look like mush compared to the D800s resolution.
Would you say that the f/1.4Gs are moderately or significantly sharper than the 24-70mm?
I just rented a 24-70mm and have been using it with the D800 for a few days. I have to say, there's quite a bit of barrel distortion and vignetting. Though, most of it disappears after running the image through Photoshop's Lens Corrections filter.
Also, for anyone who's considering getting some 64GB memory cards for their DSLRs, I'd highly recommend going with SanDisk's Extreme Pro SDXC cards rather than their CompactFlash ones. The SDXC cards have much faster write speeds and just marginally slower read speeds, though it's not noticeable when transferring data off.
Here are some benchmarks:
The distortion is minimal after 30mm That's why the 14-24 is a great companion. Almost zero distortion at 24mm.
You guys are gonna make me dump my 5dmkii.
Just scored a D800E, time to do some side by side.
Brian, the 24-70 is very sharp, especially at f4+, the primes have better distortion control but more lateral CA, both are easy to fix.
I needed to calibrate my 24-70 AF to the D800 to really get everything out of it, or manual focus in live view. Corners will be better on the primes though.

Last week, I had the opportunity to witness a Ghanaian funeral memorial service. It looked less like a funeral and more like the best 4th of July block party ever. Stacks of PA speakers acted as landmarks for the end of the road and the beginning of the celebration. Canvas tents covered the streets for blocks, shielding the assorted plastic tables and chairs from the Sub-Saharan sun. There was an abundance of traditional ghanaian food and beer.
As is custom, we met and shook hands with the entire family of the deceased man, who were positioned off of the street in the backyard of an adjacent house. We met the deceased's mother, who was wearing all black and was mourning and visibly upset. It's always hard for a mother to bury her child, and this is emphasized as an especially grievous event in Ghanaian culture. That said, her mourning sentiments was an exception to the overall celebrative demeanor of the memorial.

Quote: "She said the university would have focused on "research and the other things universities do" and left the mascot issue for another time."
I'm not too bright...but if they were going to actively do "research" like other folks do then wouldn't they have been actively doing something instead of leaving the mascot issue for another time.
I didn't graduate from there but I grew up in Panola and Lafayette Counties and Ole Miss was always "The University" to my so-called illiterate, grade school dropout, sharecropping kinfolks. They were always proud of what was up in Oxford. Their only hope was that their grandchildren could, some day, attend that college.
So, even though I didn't graduate from there, all of us who feel some sort of affection for the place do have a right to voice our opinion.
My opinion is that the administration is going to jam some sort of crappy mascot down the collective throats of tens of thousands of Ole Miss graduates and hundreds of thousands who view Ole Miss as "The University"
No matter what they come up with, it won't be the same.
For my kinfolk and those of you who aren't my kinfolk but who graduated from State....keep your mouth shut. We don't need to hear your hate. This is an Ole Miss problem.
But letting a politically correct student committee come up with a mascot??? Gee... I hope they leave the politically correct considerations out of the deliberations.
Also, except for the UT bunch with that hillbilly and his hound as mascot, the rest of the SEC is moribund with Bulldogs, Tigers, and other animals. Don't fall into that pattern...
Oh, BTW, without a mascot are the idiots in charge going to try and change the name "Rebels" to something less threatening?
Out of this Faulknerian stream of conscious comes the following thought... let's co-opt the old UNLV name "Running Rebels" because it looks like the administation is going to run something down the throats of the Ole Miss fan or they are going to run from any real of perceived threat or attitude because of a school name? If they don't want the name "Running Rebels"....how about Colonel Coward... put a student out there with a briefcase, a suit and tie, and a label "Ole Miss College President" I've got two bits that says the administration would think the students were paying them some sort of honor.
Very well said. Years ago my family & friends were proud of The Rebels & Proudly waved our flags with Colonel Reb, cheered & sang. Now I wouldn't contribute a cow chip even.

Mathematica allows you to pattern match based on type and operate on itself because of it's list nature.
For example:
a[b] /. a -> d
returns d[b]
How would I go about creating a function that compile programming languages(Pyhton in this example) into a format that can be pattern matched by mathematica?
Python Example:
x=CompilePythonToList["def a(b):
return c(b);"]
then pattern match against the lists and compile back to Python
x /. c(x_) -> d(x)
x now contains
def a(b):
return d(b);
I am have traditionally used regex to search and replace code but I have run into similar issues as described here. I believe it would require implementing a lexer of some kind, but was wondering if there was any advice in terms of implementing a system that works across a entire range of languages.
Maybe I could adapt the code that is used to syntax highlight different programming languages to support multiple programming languages?
I feel certain someone has created something similar before.

This is not to comment on the Houston's actions, guilt or innocence one way or another but it seems wrong to me that ANYONE who is found not guilty (as Leon Houston was) should then be saddled with such debt (in this case, a quarter of a million dollars.) Basically, forget that this is the Houston trial and realize that this means simply being accused of a crime - whether you did it or not and whether you are found guilty or not - could mean losing everything. Sounds like cruel and unusual punishment when the verdict was 'not guilty'. Regardless of whether or not the defendant is a well-liked individual, personally, I believe that if the state brings charges and the person is found not guilty then the state should have to pay any and all fees involved in the individual's defense. A person found not guilty by a jury of their peers should not end up financially ruined. That is like receiving a de facto punishment after having been found not guilty of the crime.
As a tax payer in Roane County, I don't want to pay anything for the Houston brothers. Just because they were found innocent by a jury of their "peers" doesn't mean I owe them anything.
" I believe that if the state brings charges and the person is found not guilty then the state should have to pay any and all fees involved in the individual's defense. "
The state is us. So that would be a big NO to paying anything for the Houston's defense.

Alan Shearer's finest moment as an England player was undoubtedly Euro '96.
When he lined up against Switzerland at Wembley on 8 June 1996 the Geordie had suffered, by his standards, a monumental goal drought – his last goal for his country coming in a friendly against the USA in September 1994.
But Shearer blasted away all doubts with five goals in five games, including two against Holland and England's goal against Germany in the semi-final.
After that, Shearer was given the captain's armband for England's next match, a World Cup Qualifier against Moldova, and went on to lead his country 34 times.
His last game as captain was against Romania at Euro 2000 when, despite his 40th-minute penalty, the Three Lions lost 3-2 and Shearer retired from the international game.
But it's a testament to his legendary status and impressive domestic form that before the 2002 World Cup and Euro 2004 many fans and pundits clamoured for his return.
Shearer was the first player to score 200 Premiership goals and also broke Jackie Milburn's Newcastle goalscoring record. He plundered 30 goals in 63 games for England.
He and we have fond memories of England's 4-1 victory over Holland at Euro '96 ("the best atmosphere I played in at Wembley") and his best goal, a 25-yard strike in a World Cup Qualifier against Poland in October 1996.
Shearer and Sheringham helped England defeat Georgia on this day.

By Dr. Brian Kinlaw
On a few occasions my family has had the opportunity to attend birthday parties at Monkey Joe's in Fayetteville.
If you are unfamiliar with the business, it is a kid's dream place full of large inflatable objects for the kids to climb in and bounce around. In addition to the large open area where children can play, they have separate rooms that can be utilized for special parties or functions.
The primary fixture in the birthday party rooms that cannot be ignored is the inflatable throne. This massive inflatable throne is the special seat for the birthday boy or girl. When you enter the room, you know who the party is for because he or she occupies this huge seat.
Throughout the Bible, God is pictured as occupying a throne in heaven. Isaiah "saw the Lord seated on a high and lofty throne" (Isaiah 6:1). John writes in Revelation that the vision he was given included a vision of God seated on a throne. Other writers describe very similar images.
The "throne," in Bible times, represented one in authority, the ruler of a kingdom. The one who occupies a throne is the ruler and sovereign over those under his or her leadership. The images of God seated on a throne remind us that God is in charge. He is the ruler over all things. He alone has authority over all creation.
God's location on a throne also speaks to his sovereignty over all things. His throne is not found in the midst of the chaos of this world. It is located in a "high and lofty" place, far above the seeming chaos and craziness of this world. God rules above and over all things. According to his word, nothing occurs in our world that does not either come from, or pass through, his hand.
I find great comfort in these truths. Our world often feels chaotic and out of control. We often find ourselves looking around and wondering what is going on and why things are occurring as they are. It is easy to become cynical, frustrated, and to even be doubtful as to whether or not anything or anyone really is in charge over this planet.
The Word of God, however, reminds us that there is one who occupies the throne over all that is taking place. He is the sovereign Lord who rules and reigns in authority and power. He is at work in our world and in our lives to bring about his will. He works in such a way that all that takes place somehow works for our good and his glory.
We need to see God again as the one on the throne. We need to recognize that all that occurs in your life and mine and in this world in which we live is about him, not us. You do not occupy the throne of heaven. Neither do I. God does. Life is so much easier when we stop trying to run the world.
We can find rest in knowing that God is in control, that he is good, and that we can trust him in every circumstance.

Beer Behemoths, Part One
Remember when I mentioned in a previous post that I wished I could attend a certain beer tasting seminar organized by the Smithsonian Resident Associates? Well, my wish was granted! The "Beer Behemoths" seminar took place earlier this month at the Brickskeller, a DC restaurant that boasts a beer list of more than 1000 brews from around the world.
I guess I expected something a little more along the lines of the "What is American Food?" Resident Associates event I attended last fall, which was heavy on the tasting and light on the lecturing. But this was heavy on both—the speaker, local craft brewer Bob Tupper, was a born storyteller who barely even paused long enough to sip during the nearly four-hour-long event.
The place was packed when I arrived a few minutes into the talk; I squeezed myself into the only seat left at a long table. My fellow tasters' attempts at introductions were loudly shushed by a professorial-looking gent a few seats away, who was concentrating so fiercely on Tupper's photo slideshow of a brewery in action I thought there might be a final exam. (He erupted in several more fits of shushing as the beers loosened people's tongues, and before long I was doing a very poor job of stifling giggles. Sorry, sir.)
The first beer we tried was one I already knew I liked: Delirium Tremens, a strong Belgian pale ale from Huyghe brewery. (It's also the medical term for a brutal symptom induced by alcohol withdrawal). DT is a light, bubbly brew with hints of citrus and spice, and it tasted even better than I recalled, especially paired with a Blue Shropshire cheese (a sharp, creamy cousin of Stilton). Tupper says Belgian ales like this should be served in a large, wide-mouthed glass, stopping the pour a bit short to leave most of the yeast in the bottom of the bottle. (Or if you like a yeasty beer, swirl the bottle around a bit and dump it all in.)
Then we moved on to something special from the Gordon Biersch brewery and restaurant chain's Virginia Beach location, which brewer Allen Young stepped up to tell us about. Apparently the "Urgestiner Dunkel" (aka Virginia Native Dark) is his limited-edition re-brew of a beer called Chesbay Dark Horse that was a big hit in this region in the late 1980s. Young calls it a "strangely balanced" beer, noting that it is heavy on both hops and malt (and on alcohol, at 7.2 percent). I'd call it simply "pleasant"—something I'd order again if I lived near the brewery, but wouldn't go out of my way to find.
Next up was a "wee-heavy" Scotch ale from the Leesburg restaurant and brewery Vintage 50. It was brewed in 2002, using English malts (pale and crystal) and hops (First Gold) with a touch of flaked oats and roasted barley. The taste was complex and rich, reminding me of dark fruits like cherries, while the smell reminded me of a dairy barn (believe it or not, that's a positive association). And with over 9 percent alcohol, it was more than a wee bit heavy, I'd say!
The Chimay Grand Reserve, a Belgian ale brewed by Trappist monks, was one of my favorites. It's a bottle-conditioned beer, meaning that it wasn't filtered after the final fermentation. The taste was malty and slightly sweet and spicy, reminding me a bit of a hermit cookie. Which, come to think of it, is quite fitting. Tupper said that although he doesn't think this truly qualifies as a "craft beer" anymore because it's produced on a fairly large scale, it certainly qualifies as a very good beer.
I can see this entry is getting long, and there are still 7 beers to go, so I'll break here and give you Part Two another time!

I've enjoyed sipping Delirium and Chimay — both excellent beers. My favorite American brews come from the Ommegang Brewery in Cooperstown, N.Y. (where you can also find the Baseball Hall of Fame). http://www.ommegang.com/ . If I were strapped for cash, though, I'd go with a Labatt's out of Canada and/or PBR from somewhere in the Midwest (Milwaukee, I think).
Some of my favorite beers are from Unibroue in Montreal. In the winter, my absolute favorite is Maudite, but I haven't had a single offering from this brewery that wasn't excellent.
If you want to expand your beery horizons, as it were, then one of the best places to do it is at the Hopleaf Bar in Chicago. They have a large rotating selection of beers on tap and over 400 by the bottle. If you stay for dinner, there's nothing quite like a big pot of mussels cooked in beer with some of the best frites I've ever had in my life, and that includes in France.
I love bars/restaurants that offer good beer and crispy frites. Thanks for the tip, MessyONE!
[...] let's recap. In part one, I told you about Delirium Tremens and four beers from a recent Smithsonian Resident Associates [...]
Amanda: I think I was that guy at the table except it couldn't have been me….because I was wearing a T- Shirt and certainly wasn't looking very professional. So there was more then one person disppointed by some of the people who were there to talk about themselves. loud For example the young blonde at the back table with her back to the stage who insisted on talking so loud as to drown out the guest speakers.
Except for a few people who should have stayed home this beer tasting was an OUTSTANDING event for the patient beer drinker. I could barely walk after having sat for four hours though. We're planning on smoking some cheese for our very own beer tasting event coming soon. -

Are you ready for an
adventure? Join us for a single-night or multi-night sailing
adventure on Penobscot Bay, often called
cruising grounds in the world. With Maine as a backdrop it's hard to go
wrong; islands, lobster, lighthouses, eagles, osprey, seals, the
occasional whale...the way life should be! We would like to welcome you
aboard next summer, but until then, you can visit
pages to get a better idea of what we do and learn why sailing with us
is the perfect choice for
your safe and
relaxing vacation adventure. We
simply can't
wait to share the Evans
experience with you!
We specialize in kid-friendly family trips aboard the Evans.
For years we've been welcoming children on
of our cruises and have
earned the reputation of "the family boat" because we spend lots of
time exploring ashore and have activities and foods for the whole
family. Our atmosphere is casual, so kick off your shoes and go
barefoot if you'd like. We don't stress education, but everyone learns
something about
nature, maritime history, and teamwork on a schooner. We even carry our
own lobster traps and fishing poles! Anyone
age 6 and older is welcome on any of our adventures; younger guests
welcomed on a case-by-case basis.
But family trips don't
necessarily mean lots of
young children. We've found that more and more families are joining us
for multi-generational celebrations; reunions, birthdays, and
anniversaries. The Evans
also perfect for corporate retreats, weddings, and other special
events. If you prefer to sail without children, consider joining us in
June and September when younger sailors are in school.
Picture being anchored in a quiet
harbor eating a
dinner on deck. Our combination of excellent food, knowledgeable crew,
unmatched scenery and a magnificent vessel with modern conveniences,
for an unforgettable vacation. We're
the only windjammer to have
received the Maine Tourism Award. It's a
honor and we're proud to offer award-winning vacations. We were also

Invites You: Maine's Official Travel
and on the 2004 Maine Official Highway Map. We take great pride in the Isaac H.
Evans and
sure you will too.
This season marks the 127th anniversary
for the Evans and
we hope you come
with us! Space is limited so if you see anything that
interests you, make sure you
your berth as soon as possible. Only about 600 people will have the
opportunity to experience the
Evans this year - wouldn't you like to be one of them? Write us (PO Box
791, Rockland, ME
or call toll free 1-877-238-1325 and we'll send you a free full color
and schedule.

Easy 30 min install. Good quality parts. I dont care for the sound of the exhaust note with the big end pipe + spark arrestor. The small pipe + sparky sounds pretty good and is reasonably quiet. I haven't been to the track to try the big pipe +no sparky yet. Im about 5'9" and I can see down the road that Im going to kick the end cap and break it when I swing my leg over the bike. Overall a good alternative to a $250+ spark arrestor silencer.

For the price of any of the three button controllers you cant beat it. All of them are the same and offer the same style of tuning.

Phil Conder has been on West Valley City's Planning Commission for a decade and now he's making his second attempt at winning a seat on the city council.
"I feel like someone needs to stand up and be a leader and take a leadership role in this issue and so I chose to run for city council," said Conder.
Conder was appointed to the planning commission City Manager Wayne Pyle; the same man he now wants out of a job.
Conder said, "I think he's created a culture that allows protection especially in the police force and I think what that has done is eroded confidence in the police force from the general public."
Conder says the police force is like a battery to the car that drives the city, one node of the battery is the police chief, the other the city manager.
"I believe we have corroded nodes," explained Conder. "We've replaced one node, the police chief, and now we need to replace the other node the negative node that has corrosion on it."
Wayne Pyle has been the City Manager for the past 11 years and five years before that he was the Assistant City Manager. Hired by the council, he's basically the CEO of the city; all departments, including the police department, report to him.
"I've always seated in that position at the pleasure of the city council," explained Pyle. "Any time that a majority of the counsel feels like I'm not doing a good job then I should be gone, then they get to make that decision."
Pyle says Conder's call to have him replaced dates back to a personal manner in which police were called out to handle a custody dispute; Conder didn't like the result of the internal investigation into the matter and blamed Pyle.
Conder doesn't dispute Pyle's claim instead says it was just his personal example of how Pyle does business.
"I've been able to see first hand that police officers are protected if they bully, lie and if they apparently steal," said Conder.

Divorced Catholics
Jerry-74383 said:
If you wish to marry in the Church, an annulment is required. If you even think it is a possibility, it's better to go through the process sooner rather than later: if you have to go through the full process it can take a fair amount of time, which will seem like an eternity if you are holding off on a relationship waiting for it.
Yes Jerry, if you are in a relationship and are deciding for a church wedding, that will speed up the process.
The pressing circumstances may get the case moved to the top of the stack and started sooner; however, the investigations, waiting for responses, interviews, etc. take time -- potentially a lot of time, depending on the circumstances. Showing up at the last minute and crying isn't going to change any of that.
Many people here will stop reading a profile that says 'Divorced' with no reference to an annulment in process.
What Donna says is true, but the behavior is not very logical unless one is dealing with a lack of form case. "In progress" means nothing and is no guarantee the annulment petition will be approved: the risk is exactly the same as when the process hasn't been started; the only difference is that the decision may come in less time.
An annulment is a determination and declaration by the Church (in the sense we are speaking of here), that the marriage was lacking a requirement to have it considered a sacramental marriage.
The majority of Ray's response is right on the money. There is one technical point in the above statement that is not correct in some cases. The word 'sacramental' is best replaced by the word 'valid' for the reason described below.
The term annulment is misleading because it can be interpreted as a verb -- that a change is being made to the state of a marriage. As Ray explained, this is not correct. The formal term for an annulment is a decree of nullity, a term which better expresses that a determination of the state of the marriage is being made.
A valid marriage (i.e., one for which no declaration of nullity can be issued) may exist between any man and woman, regardless of faith or baptismal status, who meet the requirements and for whom no impediment exist.
When a marriage between two baptized Christians is valid it is always sacramental; however, when one or both spouses is not baptized the marriage may be valid but is never sacramental. Thus, Ray's statement is accurate only for marriages between two baptized Christians.
Clear as mud?
So Jerry, if I wade through the mud , does that mean that since my ex was not a baptized Christian, I don't need an annulment?
You will still need an annulment, but it may fall under 'Lack of Canonical Form' That is best answered by contacting your local Tribunal.
So Jerry, if I wade through the mud , does that mean that since my ex was not a baptized Christian, I don't need an annulment?
Because your spouse was not a baptized Christian the marriage was not sacramental; it may or may not have been valid. The annulment process will determine this.
Any person who has ever been married in the past, regardless of their faith or baptismal status or where/how the marriage was conducted, needs an annulment to marry in the Catholic Church unless the previous spouse is now deceased.
If you were Catholic at the time of the marriage and were married outside the Church without a dispensation for canonical form, you may be able to go through the lack of form annulment process, which is very quick (often 4-6 weeks). If you were married in the Church or you were not Catholic at the time, lack of canonical form most likely won't apply and you will need to go through the full process.
Speaking from personal experience, Jerry from Oklahoma knows the score. I use the term annulment but again Jerry is correct as it is a Declaration of Nullity. In fact, he knows far more than the folks I dealt with through my parish. I had to learn everything on my own by attending annulment workshops.
Another good point Jerry made - if you are in progress means you are not annulled. In progress can mean to having but not yet completing the forums to submitting the appropriate forms and awaiting a response.
My formal petition was initially denied. I did not have the witnesses to support my petition. I won't go into all the details on how I finally got it approved but I would suggest starting the process as soon as possible and get as many witnesses as possible. Out of five potential witnesses, only two would respond and those two did everything but answer the questions. It took 18 months to finally get my approved. I was told by a Tribunal member of the Archdiocese of Galveston/Houston, 15 to 20% of formal petitions are denied. We have one of the largest dioceses in the country and annually they received several thousand forms of all types.
Jerry, as just one poster, I appreciate the knowledge you share on this most important topic. For some who may be considering a long-term relationship or dating steady, in my opinion - you are walking on thin ice with your salvation without an approved annulment.
