Occupational Therapy (BSc)
3 years (Postgraduate Diploma: 2 years) (Full time) (Full-time) / 4 years (Part-time) / n/a (Distance / E-Learning)
The School of Healthcare Studies is the leading provider of education and research for Allied Health Professionals in Wales, and one of the leading Schools in the United Kingdom.
The 2012 Times Good University Guide ranked the University as joint 4th in the UK for the quality of its healthcare programmes ('Subjects Allied to Medicine') on the basis of student satisfaction, entry standards and graduate prospects. Our students also rate their experience highly: overall student satisfaction with teaching was 90% in 2011, one of the highest scores in the University.
Approved by the Health & Care Professions Council and accredited by the College of Occupational Therapists, the BSc (Hons) Occupational Therapy degree offers excellent career opportunities. You will spend much of the course – at least 1,000 hours – on clinical placements throughout Wales and beyond, applying your skills alongside practising professionals.
The fees for students from the UK and European Union are paid by the Welsh Government - who commission around 47 trainee undergraduate Occupational Therapists in Cardiff each year - and you will also be eligible for a non means-tested bursary of £1,000 and possibly up to a further £5,000 in means-tested bursaries.
The School also provides pre-registration programmes recognised by the UK Health & Care Professions Council, in Operating Department Practice, Physiotherapy, Diagnostic Radiography and Radiotherapy & Oncology. These professional strengths contribute to vibrant inter-disciplinary environment, with opportunities for shared learning and inter-professional education that are not available at many institutions.
A wide range of post registration and postgraduate programmes are also offered, supported by a rapidly developing research profile. Substantial investment is taking place to ensure that the facilities and staff - the environment within which you will be studying – are at the forefront of the expansion of knowledge and expertise in healthcare.

Occupational therapy is based on a humanistic view of an individual's ability to influence his or her own health role and quality of life. It uses occupations or people's everyday activities and ideas to help them overcome physical or psychological disabilities.
Placements in various parts of Wales and England are an important part of the course and are based around the problem-solving process of assessment, planning, intervention and evaluation. Your performance while on placement is assessed and contributes to the awarding of the degree. Completion of the degree leads to eligibility to apply for registration with the Health & Care Professions Council and professional membership of the College of Occupational Therapists.
The programme is structured into 12 modules that introduce concepts of learning and Occupational Therapy, and four practice education modules, which reflect the integration of knowledge and the sequential development of your skills in the practice education environment. Modes of study include formal sessions, self-directed and peer-directed study, as well as practice education. All modules and their assessments, together with all practice education modules, are required to be passed to be awarded the degree.
Key modules relate to: Professional studies; occupational engagement; occupational interruption; practice education – assessment, planning, intervention and critical evaluation; research; and a negotiated study opportunity. The integration of occupationally based study together with contributory sciences across the boundaries of these modules, mirrors the approach to problem solving used by occupational therapists and will enhance your ability to become reflective practitioners.
As well as the three-year full time BSc programme, we also offer a four-year part time BSc programme and a two-year, full time Postgraduate Diploma (although the part time route is currently in abeyance). Each includes an integrated mixture of University-based study and at least 1,000 hours of practice-based education within a range of health and social care settings. Completion of each programme also leads to eligibility to apply for registration with the Health & Care Professions Council and professional membership of the College of Occupational Therapists.

The 2012 Times Good University Guide ranked the University as joint 4th in the UK for the quality of its healthcare programmes ('Subjects Allied to Medicine') on the basis of student satisfaction, entry standards and graduate prospects.
All our programmes of study have been designed to be stimulating, flexible and relevant to the needs of a professional healthcare career. Great emphasis has been placed on the practical and clinical aspects of the programmes, all of which have been accredited by the relevant professional bodies.
A diverse range of learning and teaching methods are used throughout the Schools Programmes, reflecting the module content students' developing knowledge and expertise. All modules have a formalised teaching and learning structure which will employ, for example, formal lectures, seminars, workshops, skills laboratories and case scenarios, as and when appropriate.
The modular structure also includes and embraces the teaching and learning opportunities available in the clinical environment, where you will spend over 1,000 hours on placement. The acquisition of knowledge and skills through the practical experience in which you engage is key to the Cardiff Occupational Therapy degree.
As in the professional environment, a greater emphasis is being placed in working in a multi-disciplinary team, and opportunities for shared learning and inter-professional education – training alongside students from other disciplines – are increasingly embedded.

I know it's a rarity, but with the depth the Mariners have at the starting pitcher position, what do you think of the Mariners going with a 6 man rotation?
I'm intrigued by the idea and honestly don't think I mind the thought one bit.
The Mariners haven't said a thing about this, this is me on a tangent.

Verse by Verse Through the Book of Proverbs - a series of 49 messages.
We are pleased to present Pastor Art Kohl's Verse by Verse Commentary on the Book of Proverbs. Using the King James Bible as taught during a series of Midweek Bible study services in 2004. This is the second time Pastor Kohl has taught through the Book of Proverbs, back in 1999 he taught to the church in Sunday School. For the first 6 years of Pastor and Mrs Kohl's marriage they read out together one chapter of Proverbs everyday. Pastor Kohl strongly teaches that the Book of Proverbs answers most of life's issues and that reading, studying, and obeying it will keep one from many problems.

Contemporary / Modern Three Light Down Lighting 24" Wide Bathroom Fixture from the Chase Collection
Great find!
We bought two of this fixture to replace builder fixtures (3 light, straight bar) over our two round mirrors over our vanity. The gentle curve, quality detail, and classy appearance are the perfect touch
to our bathroom.

Disappointment with Vaxcel quality control
Loved this sleek simple design, BUT...2 out of 3 fixtures have a manufacturing defect on the end of the metal arc, looks like a metal rivet 1/4 inch circle. Left over after probablly being chromed and just was never ground off in the final finish porcess. Very bad quality control. FaucetDirect have been wonderful ordering replacements. I now have 8 of these fixrures and only 1 was perfect...hate sending them back, they go so perfectly with my Delta Lahara fixtures. I have ordered everything from faucetdirect.com and have been so pleased with everything I have ordered. This is a Vaxcel issue. Do not order this fixture.
February 11, 2011
Poor construction
Although the fixture looked great in the pictures, it did not meet our expectations for quality or construction. One of the arms was bent giving the overall appearance a slanted look. Fixtures were returned.

On faith: God's gift of forgivness
By: From Pastor Kirk Schield- Shepherd of the Lake Lutheran Church, Two Harbors, Lake County News Chronicle
People who have lived a long time and who have a positive attitude on life are fun and encouraging to talk with. They are the ones who, when you ask how they are doing will answer, "I'm well. It's going to be a great day. I'm alive and breathing!"
This thing we call "life" is a gift from God. In Hebrew God's name is Yahweh. In English His name is, "I AM." It very simply but profoundly means, "I exist." God always existed, He exists now and He will always exist. He grants us every breath that we take, every heartbeat that we have—the ones we had just now and the ones that come every moment of our lives. As a Christian, I am called to be faithful to God's Word; I am to remind all who will listen that God is a God of life. That means I need speak out for the lives of the unborn.
Hermann Sasse saw what was happening in Germany in 1933. He wrote: "The lie is the death of man, his temporal and his eternal death. The lie kills nations. The most powerful nations of the world have been laid waste because of their lies. History knows of no more unsettling sight than the judgment rendered upon the people of an advanced culture who have rejected the truth and are swallowed up in a sea of lies. Where man can no longer bear the truth, he cannot live without the lie. Where man denies that he and others are dying, the terrible dissolution of his culture is held up as a glorious ascent, and decline is viewed as an advance, the likes of which has never been experienced." The Lonely Way, Volume 1, 266.
The world largely ignored the murder of six million human beings by the Nazis. Forty years after Roe v. Wade, we Americans—the very liberators of Germany from the darkness of the Third Reich—have largely ignored and continue to ignore the deaths of over 50,000,000 innocent unborn babies in "the land of the free," where we are supposedly guaranteed "life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness." Do we mourn the loss of babies in the womb as we mourned the loss of those 20 children and six adults in Newtown?
Out of love for us the living God, our Heavenly Father, chose a young woman, Mary, to bear His Son, Jesus, to be the Savior of the whole world. The Holy Spirit made this conception possible, but who would believe Mary's explanation for this unplanned pregnancy?
But God knew what he was doing. Jesus, the Son of the living God, would be born to die on the cross to forgive us of our sins-- such as ignoring that abortion is murder. Sins such as having had one. Sins such as not helping those dealing with the grief, guilt, and pain of having had one.
This is not just an issue for some big city newspaper; we can make a difference right here. It's not too late to save the lives of other unborn children. It's not too late to love and help those who've had an abortion. Since we can trust that God has forgiven all our sins in Jesus, we can speak out for life. We can trust that God will give us the resolve and the courage to do so.
He'd be glad to speak to anyone about God's forgiveness. You can call (834-5345) or e-mail him (firstname.lastname@example.com).

I bought two of these online, one for son and one for daughter. The one for my daughter, screen did not work. Went to store and was told I could not just replace the system but I had to replace the whole bundle. The store did not have same bundle. Had to buy a new bundle without the game. Now have to pay extra for game. There was nothing "Hassle-free" about the return. My future online purchases will be with a competitor.

In Brief
Courting Science
- Psychological research can inform courtroom decision making and help decrease the frequency of flawed verdicts.
- As of this writing, the Innocence Project has freed 301 individuals on the basis of DNA evidence. In about 75 percent of these cases, a principal cause of the wrongful conviction was faulty eyewitness testimony.
- To prevent false confessions, a video of the full interrogation should be available to substantiate any self-incriminatory statements.
- Placing blacks on the jury can defuse the biases of white jurors.
On January 18, 2011, Kevin Benefield was convicted of the rape and murder of Barbara Pelkey in Wallingford, Conn. Benefield was deemed guilty on the basis of DNA evidence, which exonerated Kenneth Ireland, the man initially convicted of the crimes. Ireland's newfound freedom was bittersweet. It arrived only after he had spent more than 20 years in prison, having been arrested at age 18 and convicted wrongfully in 1989.
Ireland is hardly alone. Stories of people cleared of crimes following erroneous convictions have become ubiquitous fixtures of the news cycle. Many of these errors have been exposed with the aid of welcome scientific advances, especially DNA analysis. But wouldn't it be better if a systematic approach were available to help prevent wrongful convictions and other serious miscarriages of justice in the first place?

Cleveland Plain Dealer gets Obama exclusive
The Cleveland Plain Dealer -- native paper of a certain swing state -- lands the sort of exclusive usually reserved for the national press:
The White House Monday will demand through a world trade panel that China stop subsidizing auto parts made for export, arguing the practice undercuts manufacturers in Ohio and elsewhere by reducing the cost of Chinese auto parts and encourages U.S. companies to outsource jobs, senior administration officials said.
Huh. Wonder why they went there.

Hang tight!
Recipe by Toni Holmes
"Serve this rich and decadent cake up for your next Fat Tuesday/Mardi Gras feast."
Watch video tips and tricks
3 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1 3/4 cups bourbon
3/4 cup milk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 1/2 cups butter
1 pound dark brown sugar
6 eggs
2 pounds chopped pecans
7 ounces pecan halves
This cake really needs a chance to mellow...at least overnight. It gets better with age, especially with extra splashes of bourbon every so often.
I'm a huge bourbon fan and even I had trouble with this one-- the cake was great, but the bourbon poured on after was overpowering--was like eating a shot of bourbon--very strong-- tasted better after sitting for a day-- may try again but pour less bourbon over top (maybe bake more within), decrease the pecans and maybe "candy" a portion of the pecans in the cake as the cake is not very sweet. Would also be good with a powdered sugar glaze spiked with bourbon. Good cake, just too strong.
11 Ratings
I had to put a one star for the kid friendly rating because this really is an "adults only" cake as the bourbon is added after the cooking which means none of the alcohol is cooked off. The taste of this cake is fantastic and if you serve it to anyone who even remotely likes bourbon they will NOT be disappointed. Great cake. Thanks!
Yuuum--was a total hit last Fat Tuesday. Everyone loved it! Was worth the time it took to prep all the ingredients!
I will probably try this cake sometime but oooohhweeee..did you get a look at the calories and fat grams on the cake?!!!
I made this cake before the Holidays and was very disappointed. A fairly expensive cake to make and did not have much flavor to it at all.
I made this for some men who I use to work for and they LOVED It. Can you guess why??
Sounded great, but we didn't like it at all. Too much nuts, the mix of flavors just didn't hit it off with our family.

Anna and I are really getting into the show Chopped as of recent – it's a Food Network show (which is porn for fat people, as we know) that throws 4 chefs into a 3 part challenge to create meals from mystery ingredients. So you might have for the appetizer round celery, tuna fish, calf liver and some Mediterranean vegetable no one ever uses. Chefs get 30 minutes to whip that up into something people would pay top dollar for.
Frequently, while we're watching Anna gets into berating the contestants about falling back on the same ideas every episode. "I'd totally be grabbing bacon right now." "Just crumble it! Use it as a topping!!" And so on. So I finally said on a lark, "OK, we're doing Chopped here at home." She's all into cooking and baking, so the idea intrigued her.
Yesterday I swung by Publix to pick up the mystery ingredients, trying to keep it somewhat mixed but not crazy difficult for a first go. And so, here goes the first Anna Chopped:
I grabbed by basket of ingredients, debated the groupings, and settled on the 4 I'd give her:
- Peaches, fairly ripe
- Provolone cheese, "smoke flavored" (I use the quotes gingerly)
- Sour cream and onion Pringles
- Pepperoni
It ain't exactly a softball lob, but doesn't require too much imagination to use these together.
Flatbread with provolone, pepperoni and peaches
First thing we quickly realized is the time element really makes the show hard. I took it easy on Anna and gave her 40 minutes for the appetizer (think the show gives 20) to account for kid interruptions I can't intercept and to make sure she doesn't cut her fingers off in the mad rush. After 40 minutes, she needed another 5 minutes to let the flat bread fully cook.
The second thing we realized is you need some chef training to come up with good names. I asked, "so what is this?" Anna replied "Flatbread" with a smile. OK, flatbread annndd…? We're still not settled on a decent name.
To help the dish, she added prosciutto (we didn't have bacon) and some basil from the garden. After eating it, I really liked everything together, and actually would have liked more peaches, oddly enough. But, I'm a sucker for pizza, so this was a winner on flavor front. The only thing I could criticize was the originality – flat bread seems like the go-to idea. Sounds harsh, but Ted Allen would agree.
Flavor, 5/5, presentation 3/5, creativity 2.5/5
The flatbread was really filling, so we skipped to dessert. I modified the second group and came up with:
- Corn chips
- Dates (my aha!!)
- Cream cheese
- Honey
Again, not too hard really, and Anna can make anything given cream cheese. The result:
Custard with date pudding and cream cheese sauce in corn shell
Again, Anna wasn't thrilled with her presentation aspect. I told her she needs to squirt green stuff on a blank white dish to surround anything she's plating. It what I see constantly on those artsy cooking shows.
The only failing of the dish was the abundant sweetness. She added sugar to the custard part, and with the honey in the corn shell + brown sugar and the powerful sweetness of the dates in the pudding really made the dish way sweet. I ate it, it was delicious. Anna and Babcia got through a little, but not too far before stopping to avoid sugar coma.
I was feeling jaunty about the dates – I don't really know dates well, and Anna really didn't know what to expect with dates. But, they really made a nice topping to the whole dish. I really liked the pudding – almost like a sweet plum pudding. I suspect Anna has a predilection toward these creme-brulet cups, so it'll be interesting to see if she is able to incorporate new containers for her future desserts.
Flavor 4.5/5, creativity 3.5/5, presentation 3.5/5
It was damn fun, actually, and I got a dinner out of it. Anna was feeling like I was treating her by helping her cook for me. That's a rare win / win scenario any husband would endorse. We'll see where this goes, but it's feeling like a good way to get Anna more acquainted with new ingredients and cooking methods.
I'm already preparing our next round. Wonder how long before I can incorporate oddball fruits from the international farmer's market?

Loading... Fahrenheit 451 (original 1953; edition 1996)by Ray Bradbury
Work detailsFahrenheit 451 by Ray Bradbury (1953)
Sign up for LibraryThing to find out whether you'll like this book. Read for Classic vs Partner Book Audiobook, Overdrive version. This is a book full of interesting ideas but sadly lacking in worldbuilding, believable characters, or logic. The plot holes are big enough to drive a firetruck through. I enjoyed Stephen Hoye's narrative stylings. The Shatner-worthy melodrama seemed to suit the prose well, with the constant exclamations of "God!", "My God!", and "Oh God!". Hm. I bought an actual paperback copy of this novel - although downloading the ebook on Kindle would have been rather ironic - because I have been aiming to read this 'classic' for ages. Well, now I have. And I would like to memorise great chunks of Captain Beatty's rant about the ignorance of modern society and quote at large to mobile phone dependent, Facebook using, television watching morons who 'don't have time to read' - but the rest of the short book left me rather cold. Great metaphor, lousy story. Here are a couple of the best bits: 'School is shortened, discipline relaxed, philosophies, histories, languages dropped, English and spelling gradually neglected, finally almost completely ignored. Life is immediate, the job counts, pleasure lies all about after work. Why learn anything save pressing buttons, pulling switches, fitting nuts and bolts?' Most of us can't rush around, talking to everyone, know all the cities of the world, we haven't time, money or that many friends. The things you're looking for, Montag, are in the world, but the only way the average chap will ever see ninety-nine percent of them is in a book.' Dystopia novel by Ray Bradbury. I was amazed that this book was written in 1953 and in a shorter form as The Fireman. Guy Montag is a fireman, his job is to burn books. Society spends their time listening and participating in television communications on flat screens built into the walls of their homes. They listen to shells in their ears to broadcasts (reminds me of ear buds). Society has given up reading for various forms of technology. I thought the author was quite visionary. I listened to the audible version and there were some long stretches of philosophizing. This dystopia ends with a lot of hope. I just wanted....more. It could have gone on. But it was beautiful in and of itself.
Classique parmi les classiques, Fahrenheit 451 est à la SF ce que le Dracula de Stocker est au fantastique. Cette œuvre est une contre-utopie à la mesure du Meilleur des mondes de Huxley ou à 1984 de Orwell. C'est dire… This intriguing idea might well serve as a foundation on which to build a worst of all possible worlds. And to a certain extent it does not seem implausible. Unfortunately, Bradbury goes little further than his basic hypothesis. The rest of the equation is jerry-built. Ray Bradbury has more than ideas, and that is what sets him apart from most writers who try to be original. He is fantastic, and human. He never looks at anything with a jaded eye; he is a storyteller every minute of the time, and he is definitely his own kind of storyteller.

Amazon.com Amazon.com Review (ISBN 0345342968, Mass Market Paperback)In Fahrenheit 451, Ray Bradbury's classic, frightening vision of the future, firemen don't put out fires--they start them in order to burn books. Bradbury's vividly painted society holds up the appearance of happiness as the highest goal--a place where trivial information is good, and knowledge and ideas are bad. Fire Captain Beatty explains it this way, "Give the people contests they win by remembering the words to more popular songs.... Don't give them slippery stuff like philosophy or sociology to tie things up with. That way lies melancholy."Guy Montag is a book-burning fireman undergoing a crisis of faith. His wife spends all day with her television "family," imploring Montag to work harder so that they can afford a fourth TV wall. Their dull, empty life sharply contrasts with that of his next-door neighbor Clarisse, a young girl thrilled by the ideas in books, and more interested in what she can see in the world around her than in the mindless chatter of the tube. When Clarisse disappears mysteriously, Montag is moved to make some changes, and starts hiding books in his home. Eventually, his wife turns him in, and he must answer the call to burn his secret cache of books. After fleeing to avoid arrest, Montag winds up joining an outlaw band of scholars who keep the contents of books in their heads, waiting for the time society will once again need the wisdom of literature. Bradbury--the author of more than 500 short stories, novels, plays, and poems, including The Martian Chronicles and The Illustrated Man--is the winner of many awards, including the Grand Master Award from the Science Fiction Writers of America. Readers ages 13 to 93 will be swept up in the harrowing suspense of Fahrenheit 451, and no doubt will join the hordes of Bradbury fans worldwide. --Neil Roseman (retrieved from Amazon Mon, 30 Sep 2013 13:49:35 -0400) A totalitarian regime has ordered all books to be destroyed, but one of the book burners suddenly realizes their merit.

Recent figures in the media have shown that around 1,500 new claims for mis-sold Payment Protection Insurance (PPI) are sent to the Financial Ombudsman Service every day. It is said that complaints now total 400,000 since the scandal first broke in 2008. The ombudsman becomes involved when a dispute between a financial institution and one of its customers cannot be resolved between them, as in the case of many people who claim PPI compensation. To vindicate those who brought the scandal to light, the ombudsman service has found in favour of 70% of cases where people reclaim PPI.
The main reason for PPI is so that people could keep up repayments on a loan, mortgage or other financial product, such as a credit card or store card, if they were to fall ill or lose their job. While this is in theory a good product, it was often sold to people who would not have been able to claim, such as the unemployed or retired, or sold to people who didn't realise that it was not mandatory to purchase PPI, or that the cover was available elsewhere.
In total, the big High Street banks have put aside £9bn to compensate customers who were mis-sold PPI. And there is no way of knowing when the claims will stop. Obviously, when the scandal broke in 2008, banks and other lenders realised that they were in the wrong and had been caught out for mis-selling PPI, but it is unclear how many more borrowers are still entitled to claim.
People are quite rightly making enquiries or complaints to the ombudsman if they feel they have been mis-sold PPI. But this is having an adverse effect on the ombudsman's office. It is a public service to represent the citizens of the UK, but its workload is growing daily, and there have also been complaints about both its performance and its ability to deal with the amount of new claims it is asked to deal with every day.
Claims Management Companies (CMCs) have also seen their workload increase, as more and more publicity about mis-sold PPI appears in the media, and an increasing number of borrowers who believe that they were mis-sold PPI are turning to them for advice in claiming back money which has been falsely taken from them. Banks, building societies and other financial institutions have all criticised CMCs for their aggressive marketing, but the people who mis-sold PPI in the first place are only trying to protect themselves from more expensive litigation. All cases will have different levels of complexity. Anyone who believes they have been mis-sold PPI should think carefully about their options. It is naturally easier to try to solve the dispute with a bank or other lender, but this is sometimes not possible. The man in the street may not have the time or inclination for this, and it is worth enquiring with a reputable CMC about the best options.

Reviews by sammy806:More User Reviews:stakemPennsylvania 3.89/5 rDev +1% look: 4 | smell: 4 | taste: 3.75 | feel: 4 | overall: 4 Thanks to Kegatron for gifting me with this. 500ml bottle into a snifter. The bree appears a clear golden color with a firm white cap. Some patchy lace hangs on the walls. The aroma contains a smells of smoke like the obligatory enjoyable campfire and cured meats. A little bit of fruity hop/alcohol undertone is also present to break things up. By no means is the aroma obnoxious or over-done with smoke. It is apporachable and enjoyable with some added complexity beyond just smoked malt. The flavor is equally smokey with some herbal hops to break things up. It boasts a dry grain base but bitter and herbal in the finish from the finish. The smoke quality is the leading profile of the flavor but it is not excessive and has enough other characteristics to take in an enjoy. This is a medium bodied bree with a modest amount of carbonation. Overall an interesting mix and enjoyable. This is easy to approach and really easy drinking. I would not mind having this again. Thanks Heath.

Appearance - Very pale and clear yellow. Medium collar. Smell - Meaty ham. Really evokes pork and bacon. Smoke and pilsner malt. Taste - Pilsner malt and a spicy German hop. Minimal smoke, but has a meaty flavor anyway. Still retains a bit of the smoke flavor. Mouthfeel - Medium body. Medium carbonation. Overall - Fits the name. A pilsner with a great meaty smoke flavor.

Leaves some big chunks of lacing against the glass. S - classic rauchbier as far as smokey character. Bold though not as intense as those from bamberg. It is more wood driven. Oak, campfire, mesquite. Meaty notes lay underneath giving complexity. Mostly salty beef jerky, bacon and smoky ham. Sweet grainy malts and some slight notes of corn. T - faint notes of corn and overall grainy flavors make up the base malt. Smokey flavors enter center palate. Flavors are much more meaty on the tongue. Salty beef jerky and bacon mingles with woody notes of bbq smoke. Finish is surprisingly clean. Just a hint of smoke. M - lighter side of medium. Surprisingly crisp. Slick texture. Medium carb. O - very nice take on a rauchbier. Much lighter than expected and quite the easy drink. Good show jacks!

Apparance- Very nice hazy yellow golden color with quick one finger bubbly white head that left some nice lacing. For some reason, I was expecting this to be more of a dunkle lager? Smell- Smokey campfire, pilsner malts, pine, oak, lemon, wheat, clove. Nice well balanced aroma. Taste- Medium smokeyness up front, pilsner malts and light lemon. Pretty well balanced for the smoke still being pretty prevalent. Refreshing actually. Mouthfeel-Medium-full carbonation, light body, and quite drinkable. A nice early fall beer. Overall- I'm surprised by this one. Not really into Smoked beers that much, but this is solid.

Campfire, bacon, smoked meat, and some saltiness are all present. Light bread present behind the wall of smoke T: Starts off with a good deal of smokiness that slowly fades off to reveal a nice bready maltiness. Finishes with a very light bitterness from the hops and a lingering smoke presence M: Light-medium bodied with moderate carbonation O: A nicely executed American-brewed rauchbier that provides plenty of smoke in the nose while not being completely one-dimensional in the taste. Easy to quaff and drink lots of. Track some down if you're a fan of smoked beers Serving type: bottle 10-02-2013 22:11:48 | More by BEERMILER12 |

Your little one will bring the much-loved Disney® Princesses, Rapunzel and Aurora, and their trusty horses to life with this beautiful play set. There's so much to make happen! There are two royal areas –the 3-tiered tower and a horse stable – and each is loaded with special rooms and surprises to thrill little imaginations. There's a colorful ramp, too—place the horses on it, give a little nudge and they "klip-klop" down the ramp all on their own!
Just like a real princess, your little one will rule this "magic" kingdom with its large play areas, a 3-floor Princess Tower with royal rooms, a royal stable, and an outdoor courtyard. There's even a spinning dance floor where the horses prance while music plays. As if by magic, these horses "klip-klop" out of their stalls to walk down ramps throughout the play set on their own! With just a little imagination, kids will busy the Princesses in the many different play locations that come with this toy. Maybe today, the Princesses and their steeds will lead the kingdom in battle. Tomorrow, they might head to the spinning dance floor where music plays for the Royal Ball!
Let's take a tour of this fantastic stable play set. Start with the two royal areas - a tower and a stable connected by a bright walkway. On the three-tiered tower side, there's Rapunzel's dressing room, Belle's library, and a kitchen where kids can imagine so many colorful royal scenes. In the stable, there's a food bin and two stalls with doors that little hands can open. When they do, the horses magically "klip klop" down the ramp! Next, it's "klip-klop" past a balcony overlooking the grounds, then a trot along the bright blue walkways from destination to destination. At the end, they take the fun slide to the ground level. Don't forget the center door for a Grand Entrance. When the horses trot through, fun sounds and songs are activated! Hear the sound of princesses giggling and the horses neighing to each other!
Besides giving little ones the chance to practice fine motor skills, the Fisher-Price® Little People® Klip Klop Disney® Princess Stable fosters curiosity and little imaginations and reinforces cause and effect. Kids will amuse themselves and their friends as they role play and invent different scenes of royal life with some of their favorite Disney characters. Sounds and music enhance their enjoyment, and confidence grows as they learn they can make things happen in a whole new world. Manufacturer recommended age: 18 months - 5 years

I got this for my Daughter and she does love playing with it. It kept her busy for ages! she plays with it all the time. the reason I am giving the overall rating a 4 is.... Its a little flimsy in places, especially the top part of the tower. I can see that snapping very easily. Also the lower ramp coming from the side of the tower, a gate/jump (not pictured) was added, which is useless. its not like the horses actually jump. a 4-5 year old might understand this concept but my 2 year old gets frustrated that the horse just stops. And it looks like it would have been a fun little slide where the horse goes fast rather then the usual slow walk it normally does. Its a shame that the design was changed. But overal my daughter does enjoy the toy, i think it annoys me more then her.. hehe

We bought this for my 3-year old for her birthday. She loves it! We like how the horses actually move down the ramps and that is her favorite thing too. I often will hear the "klip klop" repeatedly when she's playing. :). The one sort of annoying part was the order of directions. There are several stickers to put on and some should have been put on before it was assembled.
