CrazyDavrosAustralia 3.58/5 rDev -5% look: 3 | smell: 4 | taste: 3.5 | feel: 3 | overall: 3.75 Pours black with a tiny head. Nose shows roasted malt, dark chocolate, nutty notes and liquorice. Pretty similar flavours but less complex, mainly roasted malt, dark chocolate and coffee liqueur. Needs more carbonation, pretty much flat at the moment.

Malt grains give off a light, roasted scent with hints of cocoa and dark fruit. Excellent charred grain flavors, nicely offset by a well-balanced hop bitterness. Smooth, medium bodied; crisp and dry. A well-made imperial stout, packed with lots of dark ale malt and hop goodness. Subtly complex and nicely balanced. The malt and hop characteristics do a good job of masking the alcohol. Rich, smooth, and darkly delicious!

I suppose the best aspect of this brew is the nice lingering bitter chocolate tone left in your mouth for quite the long after glow... verdict? pretty good. it almost strays into barleywine taste territory a bit for me but not bad.

Fuji. As someone who is very interested in Japanese culture and history and craft beer this brew is of great interest. Pours an extremely dark motor oil brown capped by a fluffy beige two finger head that slowly reduces to a substantial foam ring. Above average retention, a good amount of splotchy lacing along the glass. Big roasted malt and grain, bakers chocolate, burnt raisins and some espresso notes. Opens with strong dark chocolate, black cherry, roasted barley and grain, dried dark fruit and some port accents. Finishes with abundant bitter hop notes, espresso, and bittersweet cocoa powder and a bit of warming alcohol. Lighter side of full bodied with a fairly high level of carbonation when compared with other Russian Imperial Stouts, smooth and slick. A very solid RIS. A bit lighter bodied than some other brews in the style, but fairly complex and definitely a brew that is worth revisiting. Kampai, indeed!

The flavor is/was a nice round "saftig" melange of toasted malt, hints of coffee, chocolate, hops and everything else to "round out" an imperial stout. A nice cordial mouthfeel followed the flavor hit. My criticism is that it doesn't quite have the flavor "Whack" or the "gravitas" of a Russian imperrial-- it's in a way a little "soft" or maybe "pillowy"... yes all the ingredients are there of the Imperial Stout flavor.. even the 9% ABV but somehow the tires aren't fully inflated.. But don't get me wrong-- the strong overwhelming flavor "punch" of an imperial stout has its place. But this beer has its strong points-- it's when I'm not ready to duke it out with an "in your face" beer but I want the heavy stance of an "Imperial"-- here it is.. Then I took a look at where it's from-- and WOW! Usually "American Adjunct alikes" come from this place! I purchased but one bottle- I'm going back for more... I like I like I like.. Serving type: bottle 11-03-2012 01:44:20 | More by gueuzeonhigh BEERchitectKentucky 4.3/5 rDev +14.1% look: 3.5 | smell: 4 | taste: 4.5 | feel: 4 | overall: 4.5 And so the brewery at the foot of Mount Juji borrows Russian influence when adapting the roasty, alcoholic, and robustly flavors found in stout that shows that there's no limit to the flavors or techniques that influence their beers. With a certain stouty appearance, the Dark Sky carries a nearly black coloration, if ever so tilted toward brownish hues because of the stain of roasted barley. A turbulent pour from the large format bottle yields a much lighter than expected carbonation that struggles to find a cask-like loosely knit head that's equally stained with tan. After relaxing a bit, the head settles like coffee creme and skirts the surface of the beer intermittently yet consistently. The aromas of coffee and chocolate swirl about the nose with impressions of coffeehouse mocha lattes. Diving a bit deeper, the underpinnings of scorched toffee, rum-ish alcohol, and esters that belong to cherries, raspberries, vinous red grapes, and tawny port come to mind in the most savory and succulent aromas possible. With a first draw off the rim, the flavors of the beer seem scattered with the taste of roasted coffeeish grain, cocoa powder, and ash. But as the subtle carbonation evens out, the beer reasonably light zest of carbon dioxide allows the beer to sit heavy on the tongue with an evenly and velvety coat of malt afterwards. Brownie batter, decedent espresso, and heavily caramelized molasses cling to the surface of the mouth with smothering charm. Where the label boasts the integration of hop flavor and bitterness, I find those elements to be moderate if not understated. The bitterness of the beer are easily rendered from the coffee roast as much as it is from woodish hops. While pleasantly bitter and slightly astringent with the texture of grape skin and grain tannin, the finish is indefinite and powers through the warm alcohol thinning for a linger of robustly sweet malts that meld seamlessly with the next sip. The pop of the cap provided the assurance of carbonation, but the pour caused caution to the eye. However, the beer's understated carbonation actually accents beer flavor in all its glory and all its flaws. In other words, the seduction of carbonation eludes the beer and leaves it wonderfully naked.

Served in a snifter, the beer pours dark brown/black with a half inch tan head that stays around for a little while. Not much lacing. The aroma is nice, the brew smells like roasted malt, chocolate, toffee, and some coffee. The flavor is more bitter than I expected it to be since the aroma was sweeter. It tastes like dark chocolate, roasted malt, coffee, and some licorice. Mouthfeel/body is medium, it's a bit coating but it also seems thin for an imperial stout. The carbonation is low. I think it's a solid brew, but I was disappointed in this one since the other Baird beers I've tried in the past I liked a lot. I'd like to try this again in the future, but I think I'll wait a while before I do. $10.98 a bottle.

Very thick lacing. S - Roasted malts, coffee, toffee, caramel, bakers chocolate T - Huge flavor explosion of chocolate, dates, coffee and cream. Heavy roasted malt aftertaste. M - Very smooth and creamy up front. Slightly bitter with a creamy and moderately dry/chalky finish. O - Very delicious. It can be almost too bitter and dry on the finish but, it fits this beer style very well. It also seems that this beer is rather inconsistent due to some reviewers opening bottles that are basically flat/sour/oxidized. Suppose I lucked out with this one. Either way, this is my first beer from Baird and I am definitely looking forward to trying more of what they have to offer.

A one finger tan head forms, good retention. Light lace. S: Roasted malt, plenty of sweetness. Caramel, vanilla, chocolate, coffee. T: Follows the nose, and pretty standard for a stout. Roasted malt, caramel sweetness, coffee, lots of chocolate. M/D: A medium-full body. Low carbonation and on the thin side. Not hard to sip on, but one is enough. Not bad at all, but just average.

Too malty tangy with a sweet edge that just doesn't work. There are some mild smoked tones that don't mesh well at all. It's lacking and poorly constructed. Doesn't work at all for me. A shame too, considering the price.

Pours a very dark brown with a half inch of tan head with a very aggressive pour, little nervous something isn't right with this brew, but there is some spotty lacing. Smell is chocolate, coffee, molasses, and tobacco. Taste is dark chocolate, coffee, tobacco, and dark fruit. Body is thin, very little carbonation, dry even for the style, and not overly drinkable because of lack of life and body. Very big let down and I really don't think it was a spoiled bottle, because there was some carbonation and some lacing. First time ever saying this, but this my last bottle of this ever.

Black color, no highlights. Medium carbonation and medium bodied. Chocolate nose and flavor is roasted malty chocolate. High ABV is hidden. Not labeled a RIS but tastes like one. $9.99 for a 633ml bottle from Beverage Warehouse Winooski, Vt.

Reviewed live. Acquired at Wally's Wine in Westwood, California. Expectations are average. Served refrigerator cold and allowed to warm over time. Not paired with food. A: Pours no head whatsoever - excepting traces of floating tan foam on the edges. Colour is a solid off-black. Not real appealing, especially for the style. 9.00% doesn't excuse how bad/nonexistant this head is. The colour is suspect; it isn't quite black. Sm: Roast and hops. Some light chocolate. Caramelized malt. A light to mild strength aroma overall. T: Some roast and caramel alongside some hops. Imbalanced and badly built for the style. The lack of sufficient carbonation lends it a watery character, and it might even be a bit astringent. Some alcohol does come through. The hops are nice. I don't like it. Mf: Horribly undercarbonated/flat. Smooth and wet. Too thick; a bit syrupy. Dr: Difficult to drink because of its bad flavour and lack of carbonation. Not in any way refreshing. The ABV is poorly concealed. I'd never get this again, and I'll be regarding any future beers from this brewer with heavy skepticism. Inexcusable. This beer never should have made it to market. D Serving type: bottle 02-15-2012 01:21:20 | More by kojevergas jondeeleeMassachusetts 3.88/5 rDev +2.9% look: 4 | smell: 4.5 | taste: 3.5 | feel: 4 | overall: 4 Dark Sky opens with a malty, yeasty nose that also bears a slight sourness, as of rising sourdough bread or marble rye dough. Black and chocolate malts are dominant, as are dark and sour fruit esters such as black cherry, fig, raisin, and prune. Some of the sour aromas may stem from a large hop addition, which does bring lemon/lime notes, as well as some grapefruit. As a whole, the nose is potent and nicely geared towards darker aromas, with just enough ash and tobacco to bring a smoky quality to what promises to be a sugary, chewy mouthful. On the tongue, the beer opens with the same strangely sour notes detected in the nose, as in sourdough breads, lemon/lime sodas, and dandelion stems, these backed by a massive black and chocolate malt base that adds huge black coffee, tobacco, ash, and burnt offerings to the mix. The sourness lasts throughout the mouthful, not irritating or offputting, but definitely strange, as in when bright garlic-lemon collard greens are paired with the blackened ends of a well-done roast. These plant-stem notes become somehow more potent in subsequent mouthfuls, overpowering even the darker malts. The aftertaste is a continuation of the same, though the sour notes do die off faster than do the tobacco and ash flavors, leaving a more pleasant and familiar Imperial Stout memory. Mouthfeel is medium, and carbonation is medium-light. Overall, this is certainly one of the more strange Imperial Stouts I've tasted, and knowing the beer is from Japan, I couldn't help but make soy sauce associations with the sour notes present in the mouthful. My bottle lacks a born-on date, so I have no idea what aging has happened since this was bottled. The beer does seem out-of-balance, however, as the plant stem/soy sauce/sour notes actually distract from the far more sugary and dark base--a base that would be enjoyable, were it more apparent. The beer also suffers from a slight alcoholic bite, the 9% ABV not quite hidden.

But it doesn't compare at all to the best of the style. Would drink it again, but not buy it.

Pours out a dense opaque black hue, with a tall spongy mocha coloured head that slowly settles to a thick cap. Aroma reveals some coffee, molasses, dry roasty grains, black currants, some dark dried fruit. Sharp roasty notes up front in the flavour, along with a burnt and sour character from the roasted malt, espresso, char, and a touch of smoke. Some molasses sweetness peaks on the finish along with chocolate. Charred roastiness lingers on in the aftertaste. Medium-full bodied mouthfeel, creamy, velvety smooth texture, moderate carbonation. My first impression is that this sits as an RIS more due to the abv% than its character. It an enjoyable strong stout in its own right, but lacks a few typical characteristics of a typical RIS. Quite dry, and nothing wrong with that, and also rather mild in flavour although it does deliver a bit of complexity. On a personal level it's missing some oomph, although a degree of refinement is a skill of craft on its own as well. I'm not inspired to grab another one of these, yet am happy I tried it, Baird makes pretty solid beers regardless.

If anything, I seek a bit more roast and a more robust chocolate or coffee note. Medium-full body with moderate carbonation. Just a touch astringent. Good. A very nice RIS with good flavour but lacking a bit or robustness. I think it is a good beer and another quality product from Baird.

Smells predominately of dark fruits, cherries and berries mixed with a little chocolate and roast. Earthy hops cut through some of the malt to balance things out a bit. Taste is a bit vinous. Roasted grains have been used sparingly but are present enough to provide some chocolate and coffee flavors. Caramel, fruit, and burnt sugar round out the flavors quite nicely. Medium to thick body, creamy smooth mouthfeel, Light level of carbonation. Wow this is a really good stout. Reminds me of Expedition a bit, well what I remember it to be. I didn't really get the torrential hop downpour that was promised me from the side of the label, but with no bottle dating I have no idea how fresh this is. Honestly its drinking great right now.

Aroma is mostly roasted malts, with a more herbal, minty hop note. Chocolate, roasted malts, and a bit of coffee dance around with a fairly bitter hop bite and finish. Creamy, medium to full body. This might be a slightly aged bottle with the more muted hop notes, so I'd love to try a fresh bottle. It's still a pretty good stout.

Poured black with a tan coloured head, some sticky lace and a creamy cap of retention. Nose has alot of hops, big black licorice notes and molasses. Soy and some dark fruits come through as well - some currant and stone fruits. Taste has more sweet licorice notes and hops which battle on the front end of the sip, before giving way to strong coffee and espresso like notes. Finish is sweet and roasty, with some alcohol. Medium full feel, with medium carbonation. Roasty coffee notes extend wayyy into the finish. A bit too hoppy for my liking within the style however.

A dark tan head (think of a mug of hot chocolate) rises big and creamy looking. Dissipation is even and not too quick but a thick film is all that remains after three minutes. Decent lace, though. Smell is rich with notes of roasted malt, soy, whiskey-soaked raisins and whole wheat bread. Very fruitcake-y. Taste is notes of malt and soy, whiskey, wheat, dark fruit, light smoke, coffee and faint hops. Rich and smooth, creamy and full-bodied with a very light effervescence. Slightly dry finish with a coating of the palate. Aftertaste is a nice slow fade, warming in the back of the throat. An extremely good beer. Drink one.

Weak retention on the head, fades into bubbles and turns quickly into moderate lacing. S: Big molasses and caramel upfront. Notes of sweet dark chocolate, bitter coffee and dark fruits with some hints of black malts and smooth barley. Roasted nuttiness and wood in the aroma as well. T/M: Smooth bittersweet chocolate, dark black malts and molasses on the taste upfront. Nutty flavors and aged wood give a full flavor to the body, while chocolate, vanilla and coffee flavors allow a balance of sweetness. The taste of heavy cream and cloves also gives a smooth sweetness to the body. The fruits that were in the nose are scarce in the body. The 9% ABV is perfect for this brew. Nice moderate carbonation, medium body. Sweet, flavorful and moderately complex. D: Highly impressed with this Imperial. Amazing drinbkability, maybe a bit strong on the level of sweetness, but nothing i can hate on. Very well done, Japan.

A: Pours dark with a coffee/beige head of around 1/3", later fades to a bubbly film with fair lacing on the sides. Certainly looks the part for an RIS. S: Roasted malts, toastiness, a bit of dark chocolate, and hops backing it all up well. T: Taste matches the nose pretty well, with a bit of vanilla joining the party and a pleasant balance of bitterness from the dark malts and hops. With a bit of warming, the vanilla flavor sticks on the tongue longer, but never becomes cloying. M: Carbonation level is spot on, and the less-than-thick body (compared to some more viscous RIS) actually makes this stout dangerously easy to drink. O: A solid RIS from a Western-inspired Japanese brewery that really does a good job of balancing a few select flavors (as opposed to the "kitchen sink" approach of some other big stouts) and doesn't overwhelm even after 3-4 glasses. Definitely worth checking out!

Thin scraggly rings of lace form around the glass on the drink down. Smells of dark roasted malts, caramel, and some citrus zest hops. Cocoa powder and slight coffee aromas emerge as the beer warms. Taste is of dark roasted malts, dark cocoa powder, caramel, with a slight hop finish. Mild bitterness lingers on the palate after each sip. There is a low level of carbonation with this beer which makes for a somewhat thick and creamy mouthfeel. Overall, this is a good RIS and my first beer from Baird. It's very interesting that this is an American owned brewery in Japan. I will be seeking out more beers from this company for sure. Serving type: bottle 06-01-2011 02:12:10 | More by UCLABrewN84 |

Ann Romney, laughingly, describes Seamus being hosed off when he coated himself and the top of the car with diarrhea. She says the dog would see the crate on top of the car and 'go crazy.' I'll bet he did, yes. As a matter of fact it sounds like so much fun, I wonder if everyone will start transporting their beloved pets this way? And why not the kids too?
Dog Seamus 'Loved' Trips Atop Family Car, Says Ann Romney
"The dog loved it," Ann Romney [laughed]. "He would see that crate and, you know, he would, like, go crazy because he was going with us on vacation. It was to me a kinder thing to bring him along than to leave him in the kennel for two weeks."
Adding to the left's narrative that Romney had little compassion for the animal is a detail from the 1983 trip that Ann Romney confirmed to Sawyer. The dog became sick, defecating all over itself and the windshield of the car, leading Romney to hose them both off before they continued on the drive to Canada.
"Once, he — we traveled all the time — and he ate the turkey on the counter. I mean, he had the runs," Ann Romney said, laughing, as she explained how the dog got diarrhea.
For reference, here's what it's really like for a dog in a kennel strapped to the roof of a car on a freeway. Turn the volume down, because it's very loud up there. About 120 dB. — source: Little Green Footballs

Convocation: Visiting Artist Exhibit - Karina Hean
Karina Hean's drawings revel in the visual pleasure of moments in the landscape and a connection with place, both real and invented. Many of the drawings describe structures, which bracket or support organic masses; a reference to nature's order, seen specifically in mineral structures. The contained, roiling, and often chaotic subjects appear as living storms, momentarily suspended. Selecting, recombining, and embellishing specimens from nature's complexity interests me as a means to present emotional metaphors while also enjoying the beauty of light, form, and land. These imagined landscapes are un-traversable spaces but are drawn from moving through and observing nature daily. Artist Karina Noel Hean is based in Santa Fe, NM and teaches at the Santa Fe University of Art and Design. She has served on the faculty at the University of Montana, Fort Lewis College, and New Mexico State University and holds a BA from St. Johns College, a Post-Baccalaureate Certificate from Studio Art Centers International, and an MFA from New Mexico State University. Karina works as the Associate Sales & Gallery Director at Selby Fleetwood Gallery, has worked with SITE Santa Fe in exhibitions and education, and Maryland Hall for the Creative Arts as the Visual Arts Coordinator.

Dental implants can anchor dentures or partial dentures without any slippage. No comments yet
If you're suffering from tooth loss from gum disease or an accident, consider dentures or partial dentures with dental implants.
You may be a good candidate for dentures with dental implants - and, with implants, you won't need to worry about using messy dental adhesives or slippage. You simply snap your dentures or partials into place and you're ready to enjoy the day.

Manchester Metropolitan University (MMU) is a British university located in North West England. Its headquarters and central campus are in the city of Manchester, and there are additional facilities in the county of Cheshire. The university has its roots in the Manchester Mechanics' Institution (1824) and the Manchester School of Design (1838).[3] It is the fifth largest university in the United Kingdom in terms of student numbers.
Teaching quality inspections place the university within the top twenty in the UK, according to The Complete University Guide.[4] Teaching standards have also been described as 'among the highest in the country' by the Quality Assurance Agency.[4] The university is ranked fourth of the new universities in attracting research funds from the Higher Education Funding Council for England.[4]
The university is an accredited member of the Association of MBAs, a member of the University Alliance, the Association of Commonwealth Universities, the North West Universities Association and the European University Association. The university is home to the Manchester School of Art, the Manchester School of Theatre and, in conjunction with the University of Manchester, the Manchester School of Architecture.
The university was initially developed as a centre of Technology, Art and Design from Manchester Mechanics' Institution (1824) and Manchester School of Design (1838). Later, Schools of Commerce (founded 1889), Education (f. 1878) and Domestic Science (f. 1880) were added along with colleges at Didsbury, Crewe, Alsager and the former Domestic and Trades College (f. 1911), latterly Hollings College. The painter L. S. Lowry attended Manchester School of Art in the years after the First World War where he was taught by the noted impressionist Adolphe Valette.[3] It became Manchester Polytechnic in 1970. On 1 January 1977, the polytechnic merged with the Didsbury College of Education and Hollings College, and on 1 January 1983 with City of Manchester College of Higher Education. In 1987 the institution became a founding member of the Northern Consortium. Having previously been a local authority institution, the polytechnic became a corporate body on 1 April 1989, as allowed by the terms of the Education Reform Act 1988.
It was granted university status as "Manchester Metropolitan University" by the Privy Council on 15 September 1992 under the provisions of the Further and Higher Education Act, 1992. The university absorbed Crewe and Alsager College of Higher Education on 1 October 1992 and the Manchester School of Physiotherapy in 2003.
The university was located on seven sites, five in Manchester (All Saints, Aytoun, Didsbury, Elizabeth Gaskell, and Hollings) and two in Cheshire (Alsager and Crewe), and is rationalising its estate and reducing the number of sites to two. The university has moved the work of the Alsager campus to Crewe and rebranded it MMU Cheshire. The Aytoun campus closed in 2012 when a new Business School opened on the All Saints Campus. Since 2011, the university has been engaged in a £350 million investment programme involving the largest physical change to its estate since its foundation. The two remaining campuses should provide improvements in the student experience, greater efficiency and further engagement with the local community.[5]
All Saints Campus[edit]
All Saints campus is the university's main campus and home to the Faculty of Humanities, Languages and Social Science with the Geoffrey Manton Building accommodating the English, History and Economic History, Information and Communications, Politics and Philosophy, and Sociology departments. The Languages and Economics departments are housed in the Mabel Tylecote Building. The Manchester Law School is in the Sandra Burslem building which opened in 2003.[6]
The John Dalton Building, on Chester Street is the home of the Faculty of Science and Engineering.[7] It comprises four schools: the School of Healthcare Sciences, the School of Computing, Mathematics & Digital Technology, the School of Engineering, and the School of Science and The Environment. To the rear of the John Dalton Building is JD tower, housing the university's main science laboratories including IRM,[8] the Institute for Biomedical Research into Human Movement and Health.
The Manchester School of Art on the All Saints Campus is composed of four departments: The Manchester School of Architecture (operated jointly with the University of Manchester Faculty of Humanities); Department of Art; Department of Design; Department of Media.[9] The faculty houses the Holden Gallery which has a continuous programme of exhibitions and is open free to the public.[10] The university has invested in improving the Manchester School of Art building granting £35 million to facilitate three changes including: a new building for the faculty, refurbishment of the workshops and renovation of the studios. The entire project is expected to be completed in 2012.[11]
New premises costing £75 million for the Faculty of Business and Law have been built on All Saints Campus and the Business School re-located to this building from the Aytoun Campus in 2012.[12] It will house more than 5,000 students and 250 staff.[13] The new building is an original architectural concept with three towers under a single glass roof.[citation needed] Green credentials are an integral part of the building's design which incorporates solar panels and heat pumps to power the building and a rain water recycling scheme.[13]
The university library, renamed the Sir Kenneth Green Library, is on the All Saints campus. It houses a number of special collections mainly relating to the fine and applied arts, like the Laura Seddon Greeting Card Collection, a collection of 32,000 Victorian and Edwardian greeting cards.[14] The library is in the All Saints Building where it occupies three floors. It was planned as a single central library in 1972 but after the mergers with the Didsbury College of Education and Hollings College it became a central library and administrative centre for seven library sites. From 1975 a catalogue was produced with the aid of the Birmingham Libraries Co-operative Mechanisation Project.[15] From 1992 the library was part of the Consortium of Academic Libraries in Manchester (CALIM) which was extended in 2002 to become NoWAL, the North West Academic Libraries.[16]
The Hollings Faculty offers the largest concentration of undergraduate and postgraduate programmes in food, clothing, and hospitality studies and related fields in the UK with over 3500 full-time, part-time and sandwich programme students. Hollings Faculty is in Fallowfield, three miles south of Manchester city centre close to halls of residence.
Elizabeth Gaskell and Didsbury[edit]
The Faculty of Health, Psychology & Social Care currently operates from the Elizabeth Gaskell and Didsbury campuses. Health-related and psychology programmes are based at the Elizabeth Gaskell Campus in Rusholme, whilst social work and social change programmes are based in Didsbury.[17] The name commemorates novelist Elizabeth Gaskell who lived in Plymouth Grove.
The training college was founded in 1880 and by the 1950s was the Manchester College of Housecraft.[18] In 1929 the following courses were available at the Municipal Training College of Domestic Economy: combined domestic subjects (for a Teaching Diploma), 3rd year courses for holders of diplomas, professional courses for those intending to work as housekeepers, matrons, etc., post-scholastic courses for girls in household management and in needlework, and various short courses.[19]
MMU Cheshire[edit]
The Faculty of Education is based on two campuses, Didsbury in Manchester and MMU Cheshire at Crewe in Cheshire.[20] It provides various routes leading to Qualified Teacher Status. MMU Cheshire is also home to the following academic departments: Business and Management Studies, Contemporary Arts, Exercise and Sport Science, Interdisciplinary Studies.[21]
Birley Fields[edit]
From 2012 the University will be investing £120 million in a highly environmentally sustainable development situated on the Birley Fields site in Hulme, Manchester. The plan is to relocate the Faculties of Education and Health and build student residences that can house approximately 1,200 students, car parking and facilities for community use.[22]
In common with most universities in the United Kingdom, Manchester Metropolitan University is headed formally by the Chancellor, currently Dianne Thompson CBE but led by the Vice-Chancellor, currently Professor John Brooks. There are two deputy Vice-Chancellors.
The University's Board of Governors is responsible for determining the educational character and mission of the University. It also falls to the Board of Governors to ensure that the University's resources are used in line with the University's Article of Government. It also safeguards the University's assets and approves the annual estimates of income and expenditure.[23]
The Board of Governors is responsible for broad policy but the Vice-Chancellor, along with the Executive and Directorate, is responsible for overall management, policy implementation, organisation, operations and direction of the University.[24]

The University is organised into eight faculties:
- Manchester School of Art
- Health, Psychology and Social Care
- Humanities, Languages and Social Science

The school has links with many local theatres and television companies, such as Granada and the BBC. Graduates from the school of theatre include Amanda Burton, Steve Coogan, Richard Griffiths, Graham Fellows, Julie Walters and Burn Gorman.

I recently did a 10/20/30 SD cycle and am 10 days into my PCT of 100/50/50 clomid.
My libido/sex drive is nowhere to be found, when can I expect to have it returned to me?
It should start to come back soon. You might want to add some Stoked to help with libido. If it continues to be a problem much longer go to the doctors and get bloodwork done as SD can be very hard on you. Wish you well bro.
Ask me for samples of the new RecoverPRO and Maniac. 3Z is coming July 1st Facebook for more info and maybe a great deal on it coming.
could be the SERM side effect. Nolvadex masked my libido very bad on havoc pct...I was probably more than recovered but my libido came back more and more each time I dropped the dosage. I didn't feel any sex drive until I was down to 10mg of nolva. Clomid might be the same...its known to cause emotional problems.
My second time around on havoc I used a much higher dosage which should have caused more shutdown and more libido loss. However, I took Reversitol instead of nolva and my libido was sky high the entire PCT.
I would go at least 4 weeks on PCT.
Yep, Stoked or PCS would help you out also.
took my rat only about 3 days to get it
Well I'm assuming they are real, they are in gold foil packaging Clomifene Tablets BP
Fertomid 50mg
The tablets themselves are scored and have 50 stamped on them
Ask me for samples of the new RecoverPRO and Maniac. 3Z is coming July 1st Facebook for more info and maybe a great deal on it coming.
id suggest doing 4-6 weeks on PCT and adding an AI into you pct like 6bromo or aromasin
through in a natty test booster, DTHC or buy something like Reversitol to cover your AIs and Natural Test

Lillesden School for Girls
Hastings Road, Lillesden, Hawkhurst, Kent
Formerly known as Bedgebury Lower School
The school occupies what used to be the Lillesden Estate Mansion, built at the estate (south of Hawkhurst) in 1855 by the banker Edward Loyd, who moved there after marrying. The house and estate remained in the family until just after the First World War, when it was then sold and eventually became the Bedgebury Girls Public School.
The school closed around 1999 and has been abandoned ever since. Due to the theft of its lead roof, water damage is now sadly causing the buildings to collapse. However, it is now owned by a property developed and expected to be converted into private apartments at some point in the future.
How to get here:
Road: A21 (south) - From the A21, turn onto the A229 towards The Moor/Hawkhurst (Merriments Lane). When you reach The Moor, pass St. Lawrence's Church and then turn right onto Hastings Road. The school is a little way along on the right. +
Easiest to park by St Lawrence's Church and walk down to the school.
This location is private and has no or limited access only. This is a private building with no public access.
Access: privateStatus: recognisableExterior
The Curse of Fenric (2)
Filmed: 14 Apr 1989
Ace finds a flask apparently abandonned in rubble.
Where to walk to next?
St Lawrence's Church (The Curse of Fenric). Walk north along Hastings Road until you reach the church, on the left. (275 yards, 3m)
Other nearby locations:
Bodiam Castle (The King's Demons). Road (3.2 miles, 8m) : Follow the B2244 (Hastings Road) south from the school. Turn left onto The Elms (signposted Bodiam) and then bearing right into Bodiam. The castle is to the south of the village, on the left. Parking: included in admission fee. Castle car park (free to NT members)
Yew Tree Farm (The Curse of Fenric). Road: Head north along Hastings Road, and then turn right onto the A229 to Hawkhurst town centre. At the crossroads continue across on the A229, and the farm area is on the left as you head out of the built up area. Parking: unknown. Unknown
Additional locations as the crow flies:
Roses Farm (The Curse of Fenric): 2.47 miles.
Bowles Outdoor Centre (The Mind Robber): 13.42 miles.
Rye Harbour Nature Reserve (The Trial of a Time Lord ("The Ultimate Foe")): 13.56 miles.
General Details:
3 Mar 2009: Jessica Stewart: Being a former Bedgebury girl myself, now at the grand old age of 23, Bedgebury Lower school actually closed down in 1999 as a school. We were all then told that the building was sold to a very wealthy family which by the looks of it either didn't happen or they weren't all that wealthy. Miss Wheelhouse was the headmistress at the time and I started in 1996 aged 11 and went all the way up and left the senior school in 2003.

On Tuesday, Capriles called for a national dialogue including all Venezuelans, not just Chavez's supporters.
"Today there are thousands, maybe millions, of Venezuelans who are asking themselves what will happen, who feel anxiety, and including those who feel afraid," Capriles said.
Vice President Nicolas Maduro, the interim president, has made no mention in public of running for election, but he is widely expected to be the United Socialist Party of Venezuela's candidate for the job.
During the three months that Chavez was undergoing treatment and absent from the political stage, Maduro has been highly visible. His addresses to political rallies and updates about the president on national television have drawn support from Chavez loyalists.
Opposition critics said he was campaigning for office, a claim the government denied. Even as it was announced that Maduro would temporarily assume the presidency, some questioned whether that was constitutional because Chavez missed his inauguration while being treated in Cuba for cancer and was never officially sworn in.
"Diosdado Cabello, a key ally whose biography is similar to Chavez's, would be a stronger bet" than Maduro to defeat Capriles, said Daniel Greenberg, a professor of history and founder of the Institute of Latin American Service and Studies at Pace University in New York. "If Capriles wins, Chavez's reforms will most likely be scaled back rather than dismantled. Either way, Venezuela without Chavez will be a vastly different place."
At the United Nations, the Security Council held a minute of silence in Chavez's honor.
It was at a U.N. General Assembly meeting in 2006 that Chavez bluntly referred to his U.S. counterpart, former President George W. Bush, who had addressed the world body the day before from the same lectern, as "the devil." "The devil came here yesterday," Chavez said. "And it smells of sulfur still today."

The cave is one of the 100 National Tourist Sites as part of the "Get to know your country" movement.
It is located next to Dryanovo monastery, at a distance of 30 km. of Veliko Tarnovo. In 1962 the cave was pronounced for � natural landmark, and in 1964 it was electrified. The fairytale underworld was revealed for the people�s eyes. It is the first well laid out cave in Bulgaria. The cave �Bacho Kiro� has several levels with length of 3m.
Not far ago the Tourist Association called �Bacho Kiro� has realized a project with a goal to reconstruct the tourist route to the cave and to put modern lighting in it. The realization of the project has given the opportunity beautiful halls and cave formations to be seen.
The cave is a complicated four storey labyrinth of cave galleries and ramifications with length of about 3 600m. According to the researches, the forming of the cave continued about 1 800 000 years.
For the first time the cave is surveyed by professor Urichin in 1890. In 1937 English expedition with American leader - Dorothy Garat works in it. And from 1971 to 1976 an excavations by Bulgarian-Poland expedition were made. They have discovered for the first time a medial Paleolithic finds from 40 � 70 thousands years b.c. There were found a couple of bilateral rough sharp blades, symmetric and non symmetric knives. At the upper layers there were found weapons and tools made from bones. From historical point of view, the found objects prove that the cave has been inhabited since ancient times.
The householder of �Bacho Kiro� cave since 1938 till nowadays is the Tourist Association �Bacho Kiro� � Dryanovo. There are three guides who take care for the visitors. The cave is open for visitors all year round.

OpenEye (http://www.eyesopen.com) makes computational chemistry software that uses PVM. While not MPI, it's similar in that it uses a message-passing paradigm. I supported this software at a pharmaceutical company up until about a year ago. There was talk of porting their programs to MPI, since PVM is relatively obsolete these days. I just checked their website, and still see PVM being listed as the technology of choice for FRED, ROCS and OMEGA. MatLab has a parallel computing toolbox that uses MPI-2 interface: http://www.mathworks.com/products/parallel-computing/parallel/ Schrodinger (http://www.schrodinger.com) has a few computationa chemistry applications that use MPI. Desmond and Parallel Jaguar are two. These are all commercial applications that anyone (with enough $$$) can buy, and the use MPI right out of the box. The Schrodinger applications also support the major queuing systems (SGE, PBS/Torge and Platform LSF) right out of the box, too, and even provides very good documentation for setting up your parallel environment/queue to work with their software. -- Prentice

Daily Advent Evening Prayer - Fourth Monday
Image by Scott Foy
(Note: our Evening Prayer for December 17-23 will begin with the O Antiphons. For more information on these ancient antiphons, see here.)
December 22
O Rex Gentium
"O King of all the nations,
the only joy of every human heart;
O Keystone of the mighty arch of humankind,
come and save the creature you fashioned from the dust."
Oh, come, Desire of nations, bind
In one the hearts of humankind;
Bid all our sad divisions cease,
And be for us the King of Peace.
Isaiah had prophesied, "For a child is born to us, a son is given us; upon his shoulder dominion rests. They name him Wonder-Counselor, God-Hero, Father-Forever, Prince of Peace." (9:5), and "He shall judge between the nations, and impose terms on many peoples. They shall beat their swords into plowshares and their spears into pruning hooks; one nation shall not raise the sword against another, nor shall they train for war again." (2:4) .
As your reign encompasses the nations, Lord,
come and rule over my thoughts and desires:
be the joy of my heart...
With princely power, mend and make peaceful
the sad divisions in my Church, in my family
and within myself...
With joy we have not yet imagined
fill our hearts and teach us to share your joy
with all we meet and know...
Like a new born baby, bring joy and peace
to these Advent days
and to every season of the new year ahead...
Music for your prayer and reflection...
Our Father...

A child is born for us who was destined for the cross...for our salvation.
Have you seen the front page Globe story? While restoring Tintoretto's "Nativity" painted in 1580 it was discovered by restorers that the original painting (underneath) was a crucifixion scene. Fascinating!
