Pours clear amber with a less than one finger off white head, which has very nice retention and lacing for a 12.90 % abv beer. Has a nice aroma with pears, apples, sugar, pale malt, spices and alcohol.
Has a sweet flavor with pears, apples, pale malts, sugar, and alcohol. I can taste and smell alcohol, but it does not remind of other beers aged in Bourbon barrels. If I didn't read on the label that this beer is aged in Bourbon barrels, I never would have guessed. I just would have guessed that the alcohol was not well hidden. No Bourbon, oak, or vanilla detected.
Medium to full bodied.Syrupy at times. Has average carbonation. A decent beer, but I wish I could have detected the Bourbon barrel characteristics.

Clear amber with a thin head that subsided quickly.
Aroma is spicy and belgian but no bourbon to note.
Taste is boozy, sweet, spicy and again no bourbon.
Fizzy mouthfeel with medium carbonation.
Wouldn't try again,boozy expensive and a letdown for the price. Expected more complexity and barrel character.

16.9 floz corked and caged bottle to a Duvel Tulip
No date, purchased early 2013
A - Dirty/cloudy burnt orange, milky off-white head, not extremely pretty but beauty is in the eye of the beholder.
S - Fruit puree, bananas, oranges, apricots, pears, apple cider, creamy smelling when cold but becomes more vinous as it warms. Oak is faintly in the background throwing apple and woody aromas. Some acidity aromas become more pronounced as it warms.
T - Fruit overloads the senses, sweet and tangy, more cidery than the nose describes. Spiced apples, lemons, oranges, tangy pears, grapes, peaches. A peppery bitterness runs on the edges and is hard to tell if it's coming from hops or alcohol. There's actually a handful of random spices that I can't even pick out. Oak and vanilla undertones are buried pretty deep beneath the powerful fruit esters. Alcohol bears down pretty hard creating a cloyingly sweet and boozy finish that has some spicy harshness to it.
M - Low effervescent carbonation that stings and prickles when you hold it in your mouth. Full bodied but light weight. The body changes from thick to thinner as it sets.
Smells great but the rest is a different story. Cloying gets thrown around on beer reviews quite a bit, but this...this is cloying. I don't mind alcohol presence but it, mixed with the cloyingly sweet fruit barrage, overpowered the dainty barrel notes I was hoping for. I appreciate trying to make a big beer like this but this just doesn't work for me.

Excellent and complex Belgian style ale. Its hard to believe that this is almost 13% ABV as most beers nearing 9%. you can clearly taste the flavor. I would highly recommend this to any fans of Belgian beers. It seems the U.S. can give some Belgian brewers a run for their money.

$15.95 at a bottle shop. Poured into a snifter. Beautiful soft glow of honey amber. Practically no head, but I can't say that I was springing for much with that big 12.9% ABV rocking here.
Smells of Belgian yeast esters and bourbon. Sweet agave note offers that tequila vibe and some of the citrusy and stone fruit elements from the yeast combines not terribly unlike a margarita. Whiffs of honey, apricot, and golden raisin also contribute.
Kind of sweet, but there's a tasty whiskey note that carries some of the barrel without being too woody. Belgian pale malts and ruffling yeast offer more stone fruits. Hints of citrus conjure up flavors of orange and grape and apricot and golden raisin. More of that honey from the nose. Has a strange imbalance, the way mixing bourbon and tequila into a fruity cocktail would clash. Very interesting how it still retains a lot of Belgian flair. Booziness is kind of big, but not 12.9% big, in my opinion. My girlfriend disagrees, but I think this drinks on the easy side. Carbonation is tuned way down, but that doesn't hurt the feel too much. It's a beastly Belgian Strong Pale, not too much can be done about that. The body has a great full-on mouth-coat. A little tacky and quite condensed. I feel pretty good about sipping on this, even though I might be taking it down a little too fast for my own good.
Very unique BSPA. Maybe the first bourbon barrel-aged version that I've had. Would totally have this again and would be intrigued to try this one aged. Buy one at a good price and give me your take on it.

North Coast Grand Cru pours a spectacular crystal-clear golden honey color with a short-lived spritz-y white head that soon settles to a thin cap of fine bubbles. After some time, a concentrated fountain rises from the center of the glass, directly above the etching at the bottom of the Duvel tulip.
The aroma is sweet and somewhat syrupy with notes of Belgian yeast and a touch of barnyard funkiness, along with damp hay, dried apricot, white grape juice, juicy tart berries, modest oaky wood and a kiss of bourbon.
On the palate, the agave makes itself known presenting a syrupy sweet flavor, as well as rum-macerated cherries, juicy apricot, fleshy peach, alcohol-soaked fruit bread, berry flavors, vinous notes and a super-charged malty sweetness. The ale finishes with hints of oak and bourbon.
The body is medium-full, with a thick viscous, oily texture and minimal carbonation, though a fair degree of effervescence is clearly present.
To be honest, both the nose and palate are a bit unrefined and overdone. I have a suspicion that a little more time would help to tone down the assertiveness of the ale. However, that being said, this bottle is already nearly two years old, so I'm not entirely convinced how it will fare after a few more years.
All in all, I'm torn: North Coast Grand Cru shows a lot of ingenuity and promise, but it comes off as green, immature—a bit too big for its britches, if you will. The "Grand Cru" designator should be reserved for the summum bonum of a brewery, which, by the likes of it, is an appellation that perhaps has been hoisted upon this brew too hastily.

Poured from a half-litre bottle into a brandy snifter.
A: Light head and nice lacing. Clear gold with a mere hint of haze.
S: Smells like chardonnay. Straight up, nothing else.
T: Grapes and whiskey. Lightly carbonated, with a lingering yeastiness. I can taste the floral Belgian influence, but this tastes more like bourbon barrel aged white grape communion wine than anything else. Odd.
M: Pleasant, spicy, carbonated, and smooth.
O: I actually quite liked this beer. Tastes much more like a BPA or bière de champagne (or much more actually, a bière de chardonnay). Would have again.
P.S. The bottle is incredibly hefty. If you ever get in a fancy bar fight, this is the bludgeoning tool I'd recommend.

A - Golden. one finger of white head that fades quickly. As is sits- looks flat. Not inspired to sip this.
S - High amount of alcohol. Agave is also potent. smells like old cheap rum.
T - sweet agave at first. alcohol takes over and is not hidden whats so ever. Makes me cringe at every sip.
M - while it didn't quite 'burn the nostrils', straight booze coats the mouth and throat. not a pleasant taste.
O- I was looking forward to aged nectar in bourbon barrels. Greatly disappointed. $15 for this bottle? I expected far better from North Coast. I would not recommend this to anybody.

A 16 ounce bottle, topped with a cork kept in place with a wire cage. Surprised that the head was extremely minimal and disappeared entirely almost in a blink of an eye. That said, sure pours a very attractive, unique orange color.
This beer has a nose that hits you from a distance. Nice yeasty notes balanced with apricot esters. Can just about sense the agave that is noted as part of this brew on the bottle notes.
On the palate, oh wow. After seeing the pour, my expectations turned real low. But this is so unique. A very rich, fruity apricot, fruit compote in the glass. Warming and velvety on the mouthfeel.
This was a fairly pricy bottle, I think I paid about $14 bucks. Being a huge fan of North Coast, had to give this a try. Rare that I would do this would beers that are on this end of the price scale (per bottle), but tomorrow am going back to the store where I bought this to buy several more bottles. I could see laying this one down for awhile and popping open when feeling like indulging in something special.
Initial appearance disappointment was mire than made up with everything else that followed. Beer nectar baby. Kudos North Coast!

From corked bottle...poured in chalice.
Pours a copper gold with significant head that melts down to little islands within a few minutes.
Aroma of amber malt, honey, white wine and alcohol.
Whoa...big mouthfeel and flavor. Modest carbonation. Flavor of bourbon, odd tropical fruit, sweet malt, light cocoa, lemongrass, white pepper, Chardonay, watermelon rind, candy sugar, oak, honey (agave nectar).
Overall assertively bold, complex and flavorful for the first ten minutes. After 20 minutes it's opened up nicely...less alcohol and punch, more sweetness and refined liquor smoothness...warming. That's the beauty of having this bottle solo...it's likely to last long enough so you can taste this beer at it's best. Like a good complex wine, it needs time to open up. I think many reviews would be higher if they let it sit 20 minutes or so.
With it's funky fruit, bourbon and spice notes,and given the alcohol (and price), this fits as a very tasty sipping beer.

A big beer at 12.9% the carbonation hardly lasts long at all. The body is crystal clear orange/yellow color. I'm not sure how a beer this big can be clear nor do I know why one would want it to be. Maybe they wanted this one aged a year or ten?
Sugary sweet, with Belgian style yeast aromas. There is a LOT of sugar aromas in here. Fruit aromas of bananas and pears come out. We went from sugars to fake sugars...I'm not sure why Agave was added...maybe someone was fooled into thinking it was healthy? Either way while crystal clear there is a clear weight and density to this beer.
Where is the bourbon barrel effects? This is ungodly sweet, overly sugary, and just frankly awful. Alcohol heat mixed with maybe some kind of oak, sugar, aspartame, sucralose, maybe molasses, and maybe some other sugars I can't place.
Clean taste but the alcohol heat is overwhelming. No carbonation in the mouth should cause problems, but the clean finish seems ok.
A grand cru should be the best a brewer makes. It should stand for something. Instead this is one of the worst efforts a rather good brewery has made. Bottom line drain pour.

As an American brewery which has flirted with Belgian styles with much success, It's easy to become currious on which one that they think is the best and entitled with the moniker "Grand Cru".
The pop of the cork yields a mild spillover of foam that seeps from the bottle (have your sinks ready kids). But then I was surprised by the relatively light colored ale inside. Medium amber in color, the beer carries well the hues of honey and pine sap. Even the most gentle of pours cause the froth to separate from the beer beneath with an expansive and heady cap. Spotty lace takes the forms of broken rings and isolated pockets, but is surprisingly mild on both retention and lace.
Complex Belgian character slathers the olfactory senses with a ton of fruit, malt, and spice. Caramel, honey, and biscuit lay the foundation but its the fruity complements that come in the form of apple, apricot, cherry, spiced pear, banana and dates that quickly gain command. Its balanced scent is a crazy melange of pepper, cumin, taragon, chai tea-like spices, clove, and of course coriander. Along with the stronger alcohol components, the beer begins to seem lightly of cough syrups.
The fruit and spice balance also battles it out in taste. But first its the coat of malty sweetness that emerges first- honey, caramel, crusted bread, and confectioner's sugar all lay the ground work for the Belgian influences to play upon. Apricot meets coriander, cherry with taragon, mellon with chai tea, banana and clove, alcohol and cayenne, fenel and dates... it seems that the balance of fruit and spice is never ending. But with the immense taste of lingering malt sweetness, all that ester-phenol interplay is fully supported.
Supported so well that it interferes with the beer's overall drinkability. As the candyish malts penetrate the mouth, it buffers against the strong alcohols and spicy notes. But the left over sweetness makes the beer a slow sipping affair rather than a drinking ale. The reluctant recession of malt delays the beer's finish and reserves the beer's spicy dryness and alcohol warmth until very late.
Overall, I would classify the beer as a very complex yet unrefinned ale. It suffers much the same fate as many other American brewed, Belgian inspired ales that portray a half-hearted Belgian depth and lacking the raw rusticity and supple dryness that makes those from Belgium so great.

First things first: beers reviews always come from biased sources, right? Everyone's got their idea about what they like, and how this style should be done, etc.
Second, let's consider North Coast Brewing. They brew the classic RIS, Old Rasputin. They brew a barleywine-esque old ale, the Old Stock Ale. These two beers are top flight. Their other major beers, Pranqster and Brother Thelonius, are respectably good beers.
When I see North Coast on a label, I expect good things. When I see Grand Cru on a label, I expect the best of the best. It is, after all, a grand cru.
A: Deep gold/pale amber body with slight haze from a center-pour unto a tulip kicked up a slim finger of tan head; the beer leaves the glass clean as you drink
S: orchard fruits, apricots and peaches soaked in bourbon
T: luxurious sugars from the malts and aromas from the hops create a tapestry of the lush orchard fruits and booze - a very sultry, heady flavor. Fresh and juicy.
M: brisk carbonation creates a warm fuzz to the medium-to-full bodied feel
O: ignore the mundane (so far) reviews, and just get it already.
Buyer beware: it's just a pint-and-change bottle, so you're not gonna get much of a second pour!

Pours amber with a fading head.
Nose shows wine-like notes, fruity tequila, very soft bourbon, coconut. Pretty wierd and different. Not sure I like the fruity white wine character though.
More coconut as a flavour along with bourbon and booze. Some fruity wine notes are still there.
Boozy-feeling body, low carbonation. Some burn.
A bit too boozy and white wine-like in my opinion.

Pours a bright resiny amber with thin white head. Light lacing and moderate working. Nose; bright sour apple, citrus resin, candy sugar. Chardonay. The taste is bright and ready for the party. The agave is beautiful and flows over the tongue as the beer coates and clings. The effort is readily apparent although the vanilla has totally faded. Those who love sour will enjoy the finish. The king of cups is ready for a party; but today is not his brithday!

Straight pour from 500ml cage-and-cork bottle to a 25cl Duvel Single tulip; no freshness date visible, but this was bought shortly after its release this year.
Appearance (3.5): The head is white and a bit fizzy, making a crackling sound as it dies down. Not a lot of lace as it recedes, either, just a couple of sudsy spots. The body is a brilliant orange-golden color though, and crystal clear. The lack of head and lacing is understandable, given the strength and barrel aging of the beer, but it's kind of a letdown regardless. Great body, though.
Smell (3.5): Very strong oak scent here with a mild vanilla tone, definitely from the bourbon barrel aging. Definitely a bit of alcohol heat underneath, but it's surprisingly subdued. Beyond that, the beer has almost a sugary sweet scent, which combined with the oaky vanilla tones comes off almost like cream soda.
Taste (3.5): At the front, the beer has more of that vanilla character, and moves into an interesting, estery fruit flavor, like apple juice, that must be coming from the yeast / malt combination. Wow . . . finishes with quite a bit of alcohol vapor, but it unfolds slowly, only coming out at the end. The bourbon character is definitely pronounced but not overbearing, because it mixes well with the fruity yeast and the already over the top alcohol tone.
Mouthfeel (3.0): The fizzy head lends a similar impression on the mouthfeel, sharply crackling before giving way to quite a bit of alcohol vapor, leaving my tongue slightly numbed.
Overall (3.5): Overall, this beer is something of an oddball. It's not unenjoyable, but it's challenging in some ways; it doesn't fit the category perfectly, but there's no category it would fit better, either. It tastes like a mildly carbonated apple juice with a strong oak character and a hell of a lot of alcohol vapor. It's a decent beer and very interesting, but definitely best in small doses.

Corked and caged 500ml bottle has me a little intimidated as I see it is 12.9%ABV yet intrigued by the addition of agave nectar. It has me thinking this will be sweet.
Uncorking the snugly fitting cork did not produce any sort of pop.
Served it up in a nonic glass at about 45 degrees - a bit colder than the 50 degrees recommended.
Poured cloudy and the color of orange blossom honey crowned with an off white dense head about a 1/2 inch thick which rather quickly yielded to a thin layer.
Fragrance was potent and sweet. If I was blindfolded, I would swear you put a bowl of peach cobbler in front of me. Searching for other scents give ripe tropical fruits. No oak on the nose that I could discern.
First sip impression was, wow, this is sweet and surprisingly carbonated with lots of tingling bubbles cleaning up.
Flavors are sweet and ripened fruits. It has some white wine qualities - more along the lines of a sweet muscat - and the oak peeks through but not overpowering. The flavors are moderately complex but consistent. There are no waves of evolving flavors, rather consistent from start to finish.
It has a viscous, lightly syrupy feel in the mouth that is cut by the vibrant carbonation. The 12.9% alcohol is hidden well in the mouth but I was feeling it produce a slight burn down the esophagus.
Overall, this is more of a desert sipping beer. I'm not sure I'll finish the whole 500ml on my own and it would be better to share between 2, even 3 people. It is good, not great. High marks for appearance and smell. I really enjoyed the fragrances it put off.

Poured into a Saint Somewhere wine-style glass. No freshness date.
A- Pours a clean amber color with a ½ inch head that soon dissipates to an 1/8 inch ring around the edge of the glass and a healthy amount of surface foam. Somewhat resilient lacing.
S- Strong white wine immediately comes to mind with very similar effervescent fumes. Alcohol is certainly apparent and bears notes of vinegar.
T- There's a Belgian character at first followed by the white wine notes. Kind of like a tripel on steroids. Booze makes itself known from beginning to end but doesn't have an excessive sting or bite. As the palate begins to accommodate, tropical fruit flavors like pineapple and, naturally, white grapes arise.
M- Certainly has a punch to it from the alcohol but, as mentioned above, is easily bearable with slow sips. Medium-high carbonation and a relatively light body.
O- Complex while still not being all over the place. Definitely one that can stand the test of time, but make sure to cellar it properly due to its paleness.

Wanted to try this when it came out, but being a happy home-dad, decided I shouldn't drop the money on a little 500ML bottle. After relucatantly heading back to the salt mines, saw one languishing on a random shelf & liberated it. Time to try it. Split with my wife.
Cork is tough to budge, & when it moves, it dances a good half-inch. Lack of carbonation is no worry. The pour is an overcast yellow. The nose is, well, I don't know what agave smells like, but this beast smells like the Southwest - pears & cactus & dry heat. Distinct sharpness. Bourbon is so faint I have to try to pick it out. Nice.
North Coast Grand Cru has all sorts of tastes clamoring for attention. A sharp fruitiness - agave, I presume - mingles with a bite that toes, but doesn't quite cross, into sour. There's a surge of sweetness in the middle that gives way to a touch of barrel. An herbal pie completes the odd picture. No alcohol maybe, what, 4.5%? Nice sipper.
Original & strange if nothing else. With brewers desperately trying to find a Tibetan winter root that only grows on dead tiger carcasses to spice up their latest beer...what was I saying? Oh, the agave is a new touch, & a fine one at that. Great twist on the style & an excellent beer. Better have been for the price, eh?

500ml bottle into Duvel tulip.
Appearance: Free pour yields a 1 inch fizzy white head that dissipates steadily. Pours a clear yellowish orange and leaves a few stray arches of lacing.
Smell: Bourbon and oak, with some apple and banana Belgian yeast. Raisin. Not a lot going on, but smells good. Bit of floral vodka like booziness.
Taste: Sweet apple up front, then tons of oak and booze in back. Slow malty development in aftertaste (banana, raisin, underpinned by creamy vanilla oak). Very hot. Kind of musty mid palate.
I can see how one might find this blend jarring or unpleasant (very apple forward Belgian pale ale plus heavy booze and oak), or how one might find the overall beer too sweet, but it's working for me. It's a very straightforward Belgian golden ale, not top tier but pleasant as far as it goes, with a really nice barrel influence on top.
Mouthfeel: Light side of medium bodied. A little creamy, a little juicy. Moderate carbonation. Meh.
Overall: I'm a big fan of this beer. It's fallen a little bit over the course of a year, but it was never exactly a complex or subtly balanced affair. Great sipper, with pleasing, familiar flavors if you're a fan of BSPAs and barrel aged beer.

500mL into a tulip. Pours a golden amber w/ a 1-finger white head, moderate carb, no real lacing to speak of.
Aroma is heavy bourbon, Belgian yeast, and lots of sugars. Sweetness is like dried apricots, lots of caramelized fruity sugars.
Taste follows nose. Fruity sugar-sweet, bourbon, Belgian yeast. Sweetness and bourbon converge as a rich boozy blend that overwhelms the pale malt. Reminiscent of Cuvée Van De Keizer Rood. As it warms, the oak lends an interesting dry tartness.
Mouthfeel is sticky, almost syrupy. Lingering aftertaste is aided by the heavy sweetness.
Overall I'm not so sure the combination of bourbon and agave nectar works so well. Maybe just a little too much. Glad I got to try it but, especially at this price point, I can say I'll be running out to buy more.

[Best served in a Snifter]
The pour was a murky medium golden orange with a large (2-3 finger) white fluffy head that lasted only a short while, reducing to a light film with a large collar and having some good streaky lacing.
The aroma was of a hay malt and a doughy yeast with notes of banana, apple, oak cask, white wine, apricot, agave nectar and a touch of alcohol.
The taste was sweet and a bit acidic with a hint of fruity esters early on and then became rather yeasty and a bit sour with a mild sweet wine undertone and a slight oak alcohol presence at the end. The flavor lingered for a good long while with a nice fruity sour sweet alcohol warming sensation left behind.
Mouthfeel was a little past light in body with a dry oily texture and a fizzy carbonation.
Overall this was a fantastic Strong Ale that had a great fruity presence, which along with the Belgian yeast hid the high ABV very nicely...

Survey Forms
Electricity and Renewable (Photovoltaic) Survey Form Changes Proposed for 2014
The U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA) is proposing changes to its electricity data collection in 2014. These changes involve the following surveys:
- Form EIA-63B, "Annual Photovoltaic Cell/Module Shipments Report,"
- Form EIA-411, "Coordinated Bulk Power Supply Program Report,"
- Form EIA-826, "Monthly Electric Utility Sales and Revenue Report with State Distributions,"
- Form EIA-860, "Annual Electric Generator Report,"
- Form EIA-860M, "Monthly Update to the Annual Electric Generator Report,"
- Form EIA-861, "Annual Electric Power Industry Report,"
- Form EIA-861S, "Annual Electric Power Industry Report (Short Form)," and
- Form EIA-923, "Power Plant Operations Report."
- The addition of a new form, the Form EIA-930, "Balancing Authority Operations Report"
The proposals were announced to the public via a Federal Register Notice published March 6, 2013. Interested parties were given 60 days to submit their comments. EIA is now reviewing the comments, listed by organization.
An overview of the proposed changes to the surveys follows further below. For additional information, see the Federal Register Notice and the drafts of the revised forms:
- Form EIA-63B and instructions
- Form EIA-411 and instructions
- Form EIA-826 and instructions
- Form EIA-860 and instructions
- Form EIA-860M and instructions
- Form EIA-861 and instructions
- Form EIA-861S and instructions
- Form EIA-923 and instructions
- NEW Form EIA-930 and instructions
Overview of Proposal
The electricity surveys collect data from entities involved in the production, transmission, delivery, and sale of electricity, and in maintaining the reliable operation of the power system. The data collected are the primary source of information on the nation's electric power industry. In addition to routine survey approval, this clearance proposes to modify the surveys, including the collection of enhanced data on power system reliability, operations, environmental performance, and energy efficiency and demand response programs. The proposal also eliminates questions where the data is neither no longer needed or cannot be accurately or cost-effectively collected. A new survey, the EIA-930, is proposed to collect hourly information on the operation of the power system, a topic of growing interest due to the impact of renewable power plants and demand response programs on power system performance.
The EIA-63B survey collects data from companies involved in the photovoltaic industry; e.g. manufacturing, shipping, importing, and exporting. The survey is primary source of information on this energy industry segment. No changes are proposed to this survey. Changes are also proposed to the confidentiality terms of most of the surveys. One change will make information on the individuals who respond to the surveys, such as their personal (business) e-mail address and phone number, sensitive data that will not be released to the public. The second change is a notification that EIA will no longer apply disclosure limitation procedures to the statistical data published based on survey information. There may be some statistics that are based on data from fewer than three respondents, or that are dominated by data from one or two large respondents. In these cases, it may be possible for a knowledgeable person to closely estimate the information reported by a specific respondent. This change will make the data protection procedures applied to the electricity and photovoltaic data consistent with that of other EIA surveys.
Change in respondent burden associated with this clearance is due to the following factors: A correction to past errors in the computation of burden hours for the EIA-860 and EIA-411 surveys; the net effect of adding, removing, and revising questions; an increase in the number of respondents due to growth in the power industry (such as a large number of new solar and wind power plants); the proposed creation of a new survey (EIA-930); and the transfer of the EIA-63B survey to this OMB clearance number.

There are certain times of year Boulder hotels and inns can bank on for consistent good business, and the weekend surrounding the University of Colorado's spring commencement is one of those.
The early May timeframe results in rooms filling fast and waitlists growing deep at lodging accommodations stretching from north of Boulder to down through the U.S. 36 corridor. The positive bump was typical -- until recent years.
"What we did find during the (recent) economic downturn ... was that we still had hotel rooms even a week before graduation," said Mary Ann Mahoney, executive director of the Boulder Convention and Visitors Bureau. "Fewer family members were traveling, or they might had been staying a little farther out because of price sensitivity."
The recession's effects meant lower occupancy percentages and room rates. It also put a stopper on the flow of new stock into the market as financing froze.
With CU's spring graduation ceremony set for Friday at Folsom Field, the local hotel industry appears to have rebounded. More hotels in Boulder and Broomfield counties sold out earlier this year than in recent years, Mahoney said.
Members of the hospitality industry and observers say the gains recorded last year and through the first quarter of this year are indicative that the worst may not only be over, but that business also may be close to surpassing pre-recession levels.
If 2012's early gains were to continue through the year, Boulder's occupancy rates could finish above 70 percent, Mahoney said.
"Some people have said in Colorado that tourism is leading the charge out of this slow economy that we're in," she said.
Moving forward
Three years ago, hotel occupancy rates in Boulder and along the U.S. 36 corridor dove as unemployment rose and consumers reined in spending and traveling.
Occupancy rates in Boulder dropped to 62.4 percent in 2009, from 66.4 percent the year earlier, according to Rocky Mountain Lodging Report figures presented earlier this year. Along the turnpike into the city, rates slumped to 58 percent, from just above 66 percent.
The downturn also hindered new rooms being added to the local market.
A project in Gunbarrel that would have brought a 100-room hotel to the corner of 63rd Street and Foothills Highway was put on the backburner because of insufficient financing. A potential hotel boom in Broomfield was muffled by the combination of the recession and the delays by ConocoPhillips Inc. in its plans to build a campus in Louisville.
Business slowly bounced back the following year, and, in 2011, occupancy rates in Boulder and along U.S. climbed to more than 67 percent -- mirroring levels posted in 2007.
"The worst year for us was 2010," said Steven Wallace, general manager of the Best Western Plus Boulder Inn, 770 28th St. in Boulder. "So 2011 was a very good recovery from that."
The sales uptick last year also helped the Boulder hotel better itself in preparation for any increasingly competitive times, Wallace said. Officials made additions such as new 40-inch flatscreen televisions and a large solar panel array.
"A lot of improvements had to be put off until we returned (to better times)," he said.
Competition coming
New local competition might not be too far away.
At least one hotel has been proposed for both Lafayette and Louisville, and Boulder could see its first new hotel since the St. Julien Hotel & Spa opened in 2005 if the Depot Square at Boulder Junction project moves forward as expected.
A 140-room Hyatt is slated to accompany a 60,000-square-foot underground bus station, 71 permanently affordable apartments and a brewpub at the planned development near 30th and Pearl streets.
"Boulder always find some ways to incorporate new product," Wallace said. "It certainly is a painful experience for the first 12 to 18 months; but, subsequently, (the hotel) brings its own business to the market."
New additions
Trends specifically within the hotel industry also seem more positive, said Jennifer Robinson, director of sales and marketing for the Hotel Boulderado, 2115 13th St., in downtown Boulder.
"We're seeing more long-term planning for meetings, people willing to commit to big meetings in the long-term," she said. "That extends to corporate meetings as well as holiday parties."
Additionally, the Boulderado also has seen an opposing trend: a gain in short-term bookings.
"So there's a lot of movement in the marketplace," she said.
David Jurcak, the Omni Interlocken Resorts' general manager and a Broomfield city councilman, said he's also noticed that business is up and bookings are being made months in advance.
Jurcak attributed the gains to both a broader economic recovery and also activity at the neighboring Interlocken office park.
The once tech-heavy park has attracted a more diverse business base, which could help to ease any industry-specific business cycles.
"Broomfield is becoming a great relocation place for businesses," he said. "The Interlocken office park and North Park coming online will bring more hotels in. At the end of the day, hotels are dependent upon demand.
"If there isn't more demand being generated, there aren't any need for more hotels."
Market speculation
Before the recent downturn, seven new hotels were proposed for the Broomfield area. Only two -- the aloft Hotel and the Hyatt House -- came to fruition.
Kevin Standbridge, assistant city and county manager, said he and other city officials questioned whether all seven projects would move forward. In addition to some of the proposed hotels anticipating a more-immediate arrival of ConocoPhillips, it also appeared to be a competitive play made by different hotel operators, he said.
"We speculated the market may not have been deep enough for the number of hotels that were proposed," he said. "...Conventional wisdom is, if you're not the first group in, you're probably not going to get financing."
The town of Superior was supposed to house a new hotel as well, but the delay of ConocoPhillips' campus off U.S. 36 caused Resolute Investments to shelve plans for a $9 million, 122-room hotel west of FlatIron Crossing mall on Coalton Road and Flatiron Circle.
While no hotel projects are currently going through Superior's planning process, Town Manager Matt Magley said the town could accommodate one to two.
In addition to the Resolute property, town officials envision a tall hotel -- similar in height and scale to the Omni Interlocken Resort in Broomfield or the Westin Westminster -- at the Superior Town Center project proposed near McCaslin Boulevard and U.S. 36, he said.
"I think we're starting to see positive signs, we're seeing some -- not hotels -- but other developers in town start to move forward," he said. "It seems like things are getting to a point where developers are comfortable moving forward with their projects."

Inaccurate information costing Brokers business: survey
This week's Stargate survey has signalled revealed that over half of the broker respondents (275) were not confident their systems accurately reflected the ever-changing product requirements in the current market and that this uncertainty had cost them business.
Product accuracy and availability was highlighted as imperative for brokers to respond to current market uncertainty and lack of this accuracy did hinder their ability to convert this uncertainty into new business.
With both bank and non-bank lenders making strategic product changes daily, Brokers need to be 100% confident the information they access is accurate to ensure customer satisfaction and maximum conversion of opportunities for BrokersBrett Spencer, Stargate CEO.

This is of more regulations.
Treasury considering new rules that would force financial firms to get more information from customers.
Then shared with the IRS the government saying it's a way to fight money laundering.
But is this just another way for DC to clamp down on Wall Street vanguard founder and former CEO Jack Bogle.
What do you think it is jackets like -- -- Out of nowhere here.
Well we all -- always good to be back in the old -- say it's a great idea there is money laundering going on.
There is that tax Dodgers going on out there as we now -- read about in the paper every day.
And the government in in good conscience has to take action.
But I -- -- a little bit in my new book in this section called.
Idea is.
Everything -- or ideas -- a dime a dozen and implementation is everything.
This is a good idea for the country.
Forget let's get everybody out in the open.
But the implementation is everything inside look at this and read the complaints from all these bankers.
They're saying well we've always little clients and so on there is no reason in the world and I can think that we can't limit.
And the disclosure.
To account for the certain side whether mutual fund shareholders are bank depositors well what would besides -- -- feel like a million and -- what would have been.
You know I would say somebody much lower that's a 100000 dollars could be 500000.
Don't know I -- We'll -- -- all the hold those accounts.
Certainly the Iraq you hear from your industry not -- but is that well we -- it will be Jason those clients away.
Because they're gonna feel that they're being scrutinized by the government and -- and a lot of them are doing nothing wrong.
Well -- I don't know who would want to take that step except somebody who was doing something wrong.
I mean why they care at -- the government's involved in our lives -- -- that I that.
We report from the Internal Revenue Service.
He shareholders' capital gains there well how would this be different outlook let -- my next question if the IRS already gets a lot of his information.
It sounds to me like there could be another layer.
You know going through your stuff.
-- I read it and nearly the IRS is not involved in this this is.
The Treasury Department I -- that the iris separately involved -- interior.
You're doing everything cup -- -- the tax man you know also now you have a redundancy in.
Well I mean I I think you know full disclosure has always been the watchword of the mutual fund industry now and I think.
Full disclosure then maybe you should do some other steps I'll admit that -- And maybe -- the subpoena before you know some of the largest but it would only a judge says -- -- -- -- -- you know -- their -- to comply -- this is -- -- -- -- -- it's not cost those shareholders something.
Well mail you know this is a funny industry.
These managers make.
Millions sometimes billions of dollars a year.
That their cost go up 500000 dollars they complain.
-- you know than the cost in this industry is all locked up in very high management -- very high sales charges.
Very -- portfolio turnover across.
In the media I think courses and away the last refuge of the scoundrel.
United they've cut cost -- that tell -- what the cost sorry no no glittering generalities here honoring your position does it.
It's a good one but you know we live today at -- that it would you start argued.
The father this industry and anything about it we now have -- mutual -- that we -- stocks we now -- specialty products and we -- -- sectors of the economy.
And and I'm wondering if there is the price to pay for all of that and it's just too damn much what what do you think.
Well into -- on the mutual -- thing we we have become them.
You know any individual stock -- New York Stock Exchange over the counter market used to be role of speculators played.
Now they're playing in exchange traded funds right it's better for them because they get more diversification.
And but when -- you probably know this -- -- the these fighters the S&P 500.
ETF exchange traded fund.
He's -- widest traded stock in the world that's for a day after day after day turns over its.
-- and snazzy and on the consultancy that scares me in and of itself that scares me Alan mutual fund manager today just a matter your alone.
Can have -- enormous.
Influence and impact on.
The markets and there are a lot of these guys in.
I don't know I don't know what -- where that goes but it troubles me.
Well it has a lot of people have reasonable big differences of opinion about whether individual investors are doing this speculation.
But there's not much question.
And about 75%.
Of this trillion plus dollars and -- -- trillion won or to UPS.
75% of that total cost 750 billion.
Is held by people are trading all the time people -- evening off their positions.
More important long -- investors short investors.
And they offset one another.
And trade back and forth there and the availability loses the data shows -- a group -- -- transaction cost command.

Welcome to the Home Court of Diabetes Restaurant Month!
I'm Earl "The Pearl" Monroe, and I'm excited to be a part of the first-ever Diabetes Restaurant Month program. You may know me from my professional basketball-playing days in New York and Baltimore. I've faced many challenges on the court throughout the years, but one of the biggest challenges that I've faced has been off the court. You see, long after hanging up my high-tops, I was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes. Receiving the diagnosis was tough, but I learned how to take small steps toward a healthier lifestyle—including eating right and getting exercise—and I want to share what I've learned with you!
I make an effort to stay physically active and to eat healthy foods, but one thing I have found especially challenging over the years is dining out. In my pro-basketball days, I spent a lot of time eating meals on the road, so I know how hard it is to maintain a healthy diet when eating out. With type 2 diabetes it can be even more difficult, but I'm here to show you that it's possible by making smart choices!
I've teamed up with Merck for the Diabetes Restaurant Month program to challenge restaurants to make popular menu items diabetes-friendly. That way, people with diabetes, like you and me, can enjoy healthier meals at our favorite restaurants. These dishes will be available at selected restaurants in your city, and I'm challenging YOU to change the way you approach dining out by taking small steps to stay healthy. Sound good?
Visit a participating Diabetes Restaurant Month restaurant in your city! I'll be visiting participating restaurants to sample these delicious diabetes-friendly dishes soon.
I know first-hand that eating right and fitting exercise into your schedule can be difficult, but by taking small steps toward healthier decisions every day, it is possible to maintain a diabetes-friendly lifestyle. This Web site is a great resource for practical information on how to start getting healthier—and I'm challenging you to take the first step today!

I have been trying to decide on an apt title for this photo. There's the All in Together Boys that reminds me of jump-rope (very fine weather, girls); What Does a Duck Most; When Does Ascend Up…; and then there's simply Duck. I've been watching the ducks today for some time from my window and then from the balcony. The tide on the river is low and a large group–I count ten just now–have gathered in this spot to dive for food. It must be a combination of the recent rains, the choppier waters and the low tide that appears to have made the pickings here particularly fruitful because the diving is constant, revealing the wonderful white underbellies of these emerald-throated/headed Mallards.
Earlier I was topping, lopping? the past-their-prime lilacs that live on the balcony on the South side of the building where they get the early morning sunshine. The watering is my chore while BW cavorts around Europe. Just below that balcony, and on the rocks bordering a more protected kind of cove, the Canadian Geese are nesting. They are mostly invisible save for their loud honking, this morning precipitated by a group of three innocent Mallards who had the bad fortune of gliding by (far out of reach of the geese and on the completely opposite side of the boat slip), who were nevertheless peremptorily attacked and chased by the protective parent.
The boats seem to multiply daily and all the green is greened, the sky is blue, the sun is shining. Ah, Spring!

Meet a two-year-old Christmas star
Meet Colby Kobus. He's two years old.
Colby's had two open-heart surgeries, five cardiac arrests and 45 minutes of CPR, all since he was just eight weeks old. He's one of @Heart's brave battlers, and this Christmas he and many other heart children like him need your support.
Every week in New Zealand, 12 babies are born, like Colby, with a congenital heart defect. Every day, a little heart will undergo surgery. These children face lifelong challenges and limitations, and their families face stress, worry, and exhaustion.
@Heart has walked beside the Kobus family from the start of their heart journey. We empower the family by providing them with information, support, resources and a sense of connectedness as they face the uncertainty and fear that Colby's heart condition brings.
Whilst we begin to look ahead to the New Year, we're reminded of many heart families facing similar challenges as the Kobus family. These families need our support. As @Heart receives no government funding, we rely on your generosity to be able to provide services to heart families.
Your donation this Christmas is extremely important to @Heart because it will help us continue to provide much-valued resources, experiences and assistance to Kiwi heart families that will make an immediate impact throughout 2014.
Every week, 12 babies are born with a heart defect in New Zealand. Whilst there are surgical procedures that can improve the heart's function, there is no cure for a Congenital Heart Disease (CHD).
@Heart is the only charity that supports Kiwi children and families affected by CHD, right through their life.
@Heart receives no government funding. We have to fundraise for all the services we provide.
If you need more information or just someone to talk to, please call us on free phone 0800 543 943.
Nelson Motor Show Charity Drive Challenge (16-20 January) is an exciting, fun, adrenaline pumping fundraising event for @Heart.

I love to blog because I get to reach a wide audience. I have seen my map of readers and you guys are so diverse and really so awesome. I try to keep my blog clean of adverts (you may get some from wordpress but I don't make any money from it) but every now again I will see a story that needs some attention.
Our local Humane Society in Miami is having a major crisis. Their air conditioner broke down and they need to raise $85,000 to replace it. The animals are suffering! They are having to resort to cool down the kitties by using ice cubes!
Those of you that can, please make a donation to the Greater Miami Humane Society. I have adopted from them before and they really have some great people there who care about the animals.
I know I have the best readers in the world. Thanks guys!

Description:In 1981 the United States Air Force recognized the need for a modern air superiority fighter to replace the F-15 and F-16 sometime in the mid 1900's. The study program was codenamed "Senior Sky" with the System Program Office (SPO) headed by USAF Col. Al Piccirillo. The future Advanced Technology Fighter (AFT) would use stealth, extreme maneuverability, the ability to go supersonic sans afterburner and the capabilities of long range and internal carriage of its weapons. Two aircraft evolved for this contest: The Lockheed YF22A and the YF23A. The test YF-22A had proved itself capable of supersonic fight without use of afterburner, termed "supercruise mode;" it proved capable of maneuver at extreme high angles of attack with complete control and it fired two different types of missiles and inflight refueling was a standard test procedure. Kit includes a detailed cockpit, wheel wells and landing gear, and complete weapons systems.

Analyst: 'A fantastic weapon of fear'
Syria isn't one of the 188 nations that have signed on to the Chemical Weapons Convention that prohibits the production, stockpiling and use of chemical and biological weapons. Fellow Middle Eastern nations having taken a similar stance, officially refusing to sign on until Israel signs the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty.
Yet Syria has denied having such weapons, as well as using them during its ongoing civil war. (Damascus has accused rebels of using such weapons, though, including in an attack last month in the northern province of Aleppo that state media claimed killed 25 people.) It's also expressed concerns that its government might be falsely implicated if "terrorists" -- a term it uses to refer to rebel fighters -- employ such weapons.
"What raises concerns ... is our serious fear that some of the countries backing terrorism and terrorists might provide the armed terrorist groups with chemical weapons and claim that it was the Syrian government that used the weapons," the state-run news agency SANA reported.
Unlike nuclear weapons, chemical weapons are inexpensive to develop and stockpile.
This lends them a disproportionate importance for Syria and the region, analysts say.
"In the Middle East, chemical weapons have been seen as a possible counter to Israel's nuclear weapons," Susan B. Martin of the Department of War Studies at King's College London said in March.
Dina Esfandiary, a research associate at the International Institute for Strategic Studies, said last month that Syria embraced a chemical weapons program as a way to bolster its strategic strength despite economic weaknesses, especially after Israel imposed a series of humiliating military defeats on the Arab world.
"The best way to operate asymmetrically was for Syria to have its chemical weapons program," she said.
According to Esfandiary, chemical weapons' utility is "quite limited," as they are more of a deterrent than a real battlefield or tactical weapon.
"If you shoot a missile at a population center, you can be fairly certain that anyone it hits will die," she said. "Chemical weapons use is not as clear-cut as that. It depends on topography, weather, how you deliver the chemical weapons, and you can't always be clear it will cause maximum casualty."
Their real power is in psychological, she said.
"It's a fantastic weapon of fear."

Stayed for one night heading from Madrid toward Girona. Arrived early afternoon and learned they were only running one tour/tasting per day, at 10:30am. Combination of slower tourist time plus harvest season, apparently. We had a large room but fairly dated. Looked like the newer wing, which we heard was nicer, was completely closed, probably for slow season. The location... More

The Power of Intention and Offensive Slogans
by Susan Moreno on Nov. 20, 2009, under General Mental Health, Health, Obama, PoliticsI believe in karma and what you "put out there, you get back, tenfold." I think this applies to more than just our actions….I think the intention behind what we say has power as well. So, when I read about the most recent radical right bumper sticker I was shocked.
From the Progress Report: RADICAL RIGHT — NEW RIGHT-WING CRAZE PRAYS THAT OBAMA'S 'DAYS BE FEW': The newest far-right craze is an anti-Obama slogan making its way onto t-shirts, bumper stickers, mugs, and even teddy bears and baby bibs: "Pray for Obama: Psalm 109:8," which reads, "Let his days be few; and let another take his office." It's unclear whether the intent is to hope for an end to Obama's time in office — or an end to his life. But the sentiment of the rest of psalm suggests the latter: "Let his children be fatherless, and his wife a widow." Diana Butler Bass at Beliefnet explains that Psalm 109 is one of the "imprecatory" prayers, "a lament in the form of petition to destroy one's enemies." While perhaps intended to be a joke, she notes that the psalm actually "entreats God to destroy the president." CafePress.com and Zazzle.com, which had been selling "Pray for Obama" items, took them down. Yesterday, however, a Cafe Press representative told The Progress Report that the site was reinstating the merchandise because it deemed it "fair political commentary." Cafe Press is now asking users to vote on whether the merchandise should continue to be sold. On Tuesday, MSNBC's Rachel Maddow spoke with "Patience With God" author Frank Schaeffer, who said that while the psalm was "frightening" in a secular context, it's even "more threatening" in a biblical context.
I know there are many people that don't like our President, but this is not the first time I have heard of slogans and rhetoric that have been openly threatening to him and his family. What ever happened to "you reap what you sew?' Or, the power of positive thought? Some may say that "wishing his days are few" isn't threatening, but what about the intent behind it? Intent means more than words.
I may not be thrilled with the economy, the wars, the growing deficit, and the current state of healthcare insurance, but the last thing I wish is for someone, anyone for that matter, is to wish "his days be few."
Oh, and just to end this on a funny note for the holidays…..
Why won't President Obama be having turkey for Thanksgiving?
Vice-President Biden will be out of town! (now that's the kind of political humor that makes me laugh and no, the intention is not to turn Biden into a turkey!)
