Great, it is smooth and delicate with a incredible Jack finish
I just opened this 1 liter of Jack and sipping it for a while. This bottle was given to me as a gift on our wedding dating back 15 years ago. I regret that I just opened it today! Tastes very nice and smooth. I feel high in spirits after a few sips. Will definitely purchase more bottles for its more costly if I will get married again to have this.
The thing I like about Jack is it tastes great and I know that any of the whiskeys they make I can buy and will like. As, although they all taste different they''ll always taste like Jack.
I like it very much what a taste thanx jack daniel
This product is so good.In Fact, It is great, I use it, a lots of time and it felt me so good and relax After so much Tiredness.
Try it! This is my first time trying Jack and I like it. Smells like vanilla and brown sugar with a smooth and creamy mouth-feel. Reminds me of Bailey''s now that I think of it! I''d recommend it :)
I like this product very much
Really great taste and not any hangover on next morning.cheers JD.
great bourbon. goes down well and gets the job done without unpleasant next day aftershocks.
Limey twits. Get you whiskey straight: Jack Daniels is a TENNESSEE whiskey, NOT a bourbon! Old no. 7 has an incredibly mellow mouth-feel, and a great kick on the way down. Gentleman Jack is sweeter on the palate with minimal after burn. Drink it neat or drink my fist. Certainly not the only whiskey worth a tilt- but the thought of this spirit having a bad reputation to any degree in any place is chilling.

`The book has the sweep of a classical 19th Century novel'
BANGALORE: Why is Kiran Nagarkar constantly drawn to the theme of religion in all his works? What is his personal position on religion?
Responding to these questions by a reader at the launch of his latest novel, "God's Little Soldier", here on Thursday, the Marathi and English writer Mr. Nagarkar said: "These are questions that would take me a week to consider. But let me just say that I am a-religious, and yet, am drawn compulsively to religion. That, even as I am deeply disturbed by religion and am frightened of dealing with it."
Speaking after releasing the book, playwright Girish Karnad also touched upon "this important preoccupation" of Mr. Nagarkar.
He said "God's Little Soldier" had the sweep of a classical 19th Century novel, and much like the novels in that tradition, saw religion and politics as intrinsically connected with the deepest turmoil of a man. He said Mr. Nagarkar was one of the few writers to write on this theme at a time when religion was the most contentious issue.
Mr. Karnad and Mr. Nagarkar read excerpts from "God's Little Soldier", the latter's third English novel after "Ravan And Eddie" and "Cuckold".

Kansas City in March can always be a bit of a gamble when it comes to the weather and we experienced that phenomenon this last weekend, February 28-March 2, when the Woodworking Shows opened its doors at the Kemper Arena at noon on Friday according to schedule but closed them two hours shy of normal on Sunday. Conditions went from the sunny 40′s for my arrival on Thursday to near single digits and blowing snow for late Saturday and all day Sunday. I'm not one to complain (I do enjoy each season) but I think it's about time to strangle that groundhog in Pennsylvania. Metaphorically, of course!
As is my custom each weekend, I did take my normal side trip to see something of interest on Thursday. Having seen the Jazz Museum, The Negro Leagues Baseball Museum, and an underground Minuteman silo on previous visits, I found the Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art to be the perfect stop. Why this museum isn't just jammed with visitors, I'll never understand. There were very few people there when I went despite the fact that admittance is free (they really appreciate donations though) and the art and the buildings themselves are so impressive. The grounds and outdoor sculpture art were an enticement even as I drove up. The neighborhood has some very interesting buildings as well. Coupling this with some great displays of period art and furniture including a very inviting courtyard for lunch, made this museum a real winner for me.
We had some very nice crowds of woodworkers who packed the entryway and the aisles on Friday and Saturday. With the threat of additional snow and really poor driving conditions predicted for Sunday, that day's crowds were somewhat sparse. For those who did attend, they found an even larger show than last year with more tool vendors and educational opportunities. This was the second year at the Kemper Arena and even though there is a small parking fee, most attendees were excited to see the show's expansion. As has been the case this last year in general, we are seeing somewhat younger attendees and quite a few children.
I stopped by many of the booths to chat with the vendors and clubs. I was particularly drawn by the interest and busyness of the Kansas City Woodturners Club. It seemed like there was something happening everywhere and constantly. Some great projects on display too.
Representatives from the DNR spent the weekend educating people about the various invasive bug species and their potential harm to the trees in the area.
I saw a very interesting Bishop Clamp system on display at the Bushton Mfg booth.
We had each of our Project Showcase categories covered this weekend with some very unique and well constructed entries.
The Youth Division had entries from two brothers take the honors with second place going to Jeremiah Stalder's Rubber Band Gun and his brother, Daniel, taking first with a spinning top.
For the adults in the Furniture Category, a third place ribbon went to Caleb Schraeder's Arch Entry Table. Ronald Lomax took second for the Sculpted Stool and Hal Jones's Cradle took top honors.
In Turnings, Jim Ramsey was the overall winner with his Table Lamp with Turned Pendulum.
Models/Toys winner was the Fire Engine by Jerry Ray.
In the Open Category, Brian Dillon took first place for his Kayak. Brian was the winner of both the People's Choice and Educator's Choice as well. A clean sweep for that beautiful watercraft.
All of our entrants won a goody bag from the Woodworking Shows and category winners took home tools from Bosch Tools, Worksharp and Lee Valley gift cards. Brian's Kayak will complete with the other Educator's Choice winners for the grand prize at the conclusion of the Woodworking Show season in March.
The snowy conditions forced the show to close early on Sunday but that gave our intrepid road crews a little extra time to truck everything to our next venue in Norcross, Georgia at the North Atlantic Trade Center. We will be there from March 7-9 and, as of this writing, without any snow in the forecast. Maybe 'ol Punxsutawney Phil knows he's on thin ice! If you get a chance to see the show, I hope you'll stop in at the WOOD Magazine booth for our seminars on Cabinet Making. I'll make it worth your while.
'Til then, I'll see you on the road.

No Comments
As the thermometer inched into the low fifties this last weekend, the Woodworking Shows opened its doors in Somerset, New Jersey. It's been a particularly tough winter all across the east and the remnants of the truly unusual snow totals were still visible almost everywhere I drove. Though it may have been just a celebration of this temporary warmth, I believe that the woodworkers who packed the entryway and the aisles of our venue came to replace the memory of cold and ice with thoughts of shavings and sawdust. We have always enjoyed great attendance here and this time would be no different.
I feel that the show was a success on nearly every level. As has been the case for the last few years, there were more educational opportunities than the time to see them. The free seminars on the show floor were filled beyond seating capacity over the course of the entire three day show. The paid seminars (and we are slowly adding more of these focused classes) were becoming even better attended. And if you were here to make a tool purchase, nearly every manufacturer was represented in the sales booths. Both portable and stationary tools seemed to be everywhere.
Looking for antique woodworking tools, then Crafts Antique Tool Club of New Jersey had you covered there too. I don't know about the food at this venue but beer sales looked to be very brisk. Again, something for everyone!
A few of the local woodworking clubs were on hand to display the work of their members and to attract potential new members. Garden State Marquetry Society taught their proven techniques and had samples on hand.
The Alderfer Lumber Company has some really nice stock including this striking Walnut crotch grain for sale.
Even some nice jewelry at the Hudson Valley Woodturning booth.
We also saw a large number of entries in the Showcase in both the adult and youth divisions.
In the Furniture Category, our winner was John Manura's Jewelry Boxes.
The Turnings/Carvings Category had a tie for second place between Jeffrey Knichel's Fluted Bowl and the Offset Baseball Bat from Robert Lenrow. First place went to Larry Morgan for his Maple Urn.
In the Models/Toys Category, Hans Bolliger took second for the Firetruck and first place was taken by the Drilling Rig and Tractor by Glen Peterson.
The Open Category had some interesting pieces. Third place was given to Roger Sinclair for the Gershwin Scroll Saw Picture. Gualberto Malave took second for the Bandsaw Box and the overall winner was Larry Yaskulka and his Jousting Horse.
The People's Choice winner was Glenn Peterson's Drilling Rig and the Educator's Choice went to Larry Yaskulka's Jousting Horse.
The Youth Division was a guitar makers heaven. All of the entries were school projects and they were all well crafted.
Third place was given to Craig Mitchell for the Blue/Silver Razorback Guitar. Second place turned out to be a three way tie! Justin Barbato (Orange Les Paul), Shelby South (Black/Blue SG Standard) and Ryan Fox (Sunburst Les Paul) drew equal votes for their guitars. First place was awarded to Lauren Woods for the Bass/Treble Clef Guitar. Lauren also took the People's Choice award and the Educator's Choice Runner up was Jarrod Gallack"s Gold/Black Warlock. The Educator's Choice winner was Shelby South's Black/Blue SG Standard.
All entrants were given goodies bags from the Woodworking Shows and a variety of products from the vendors. Winners took home tools from Bosch Tools and Work Sharp as well as gift cards from Lee Valley. Larry Yaskulka and his Jousting Horse will compete for overall winner following the Houston Show this March.
Somerset was quite a show. The attendees left happy and the educators and vendors exhausted. I was fortunate and could fly home on Sunday night. For those who make the show happen each week, our set up and transportation crews, they will drive to Kansas City next week only to go back across the country to Atlanta the following week. As always, the unheralded stars of the show. The Kansas City show will be February 28-March 2 at the Kemper Arena Grounds on American Royal Court. I hope that you'll get a chance to come out and see what we're so proud of. I'm teaching cabinet making in the WOOD Magazine booth and I promise you a lot of information during the course of each day. Come sit a spell and we'll talk.
'Til Then, I'll see you on the road.

This past Friday and Saturday, February 14-15, the Woodworking Shows returned to the Detroit area and opened its doors to a very nice group of attendees as eager as we were to enjoy and display our craft. Even though the Detroit show had only been put on the schedule a couple of weeks ago, the crowds we had hoped for did show up and we made good on our promise to provide something for everyone.

While there were definitely passing thoughts of football this last weekend, January 30-February 2, woodworkers in Columbus took time out to visit the other big game in town, The Woodworking Shows. We've always enjoyed good attendance in Ohio and, as anticipated, our fans turned out in droves to be educated, equipped and inspired by our well seasoned team of vendors and seminar speakers.

If your goal this last weekend, January 17-19, was to pack as many experiences into three days as you could, the Indiana State Fairgrounds in Indianapolis was the place to be. For me (and a huge number of other people), the highlight was definitely the Woodworking Show but there was certainly something for everyone else. It all started on route I-65 and its interpretation of the Indy 500. Straighten out that oval, add excessive speed and throw in snow and wind and you've got something to see. A lot of yellow and red caution flags flew nearly the entire weekend both North and Southbound. When you finally arrived at the Fairgrounds, you found the parking lot overflowing with snow and cars long before the doors of the show opened. Some great advanced planning led to the use of a few shuttle buses for those parked in the hinterland. Then, cold and pooped, you had your choice of the home show, gun show or Nirvana (AKA The Woodworking Show).
Once inside the warm Blue Ribbon Pavilion, attendees found nearly every square foot of the show floor filled with tools, woodworking supplies and educational seminars. Jet/Powermatic had a very nice display of heavy iron including bandsaws, cabinet saws, drill presses, planers and more. Lee Valley had an impressive gathering of precision planes, squares and marking devises. And for those looking for tools of the past, two different booths were there with enough hand tools to fill even the largest tool chest.
The educational seminars were packed the entire weekend with the only complaint being that even three days wasn't sufficient to take them all in. Small groups seemed to gather around anyone demonstrating a tool or technique. Braving the cold, attendees watched a vendor milling logs in the parking lot. More to see this last weekend than you could shake a stick at.
The Project Showcase featured both youth and adult entries and, having seen the quality of their efforts, those young woodworkers could have easily competed with their more seasoned fellow entrants. The Box by Caiden Fry won first place in the Youth Open Category and the Maloof Chair by Jalen Waggoner took top honors in the Furniture Category. Jalen also was awarded the People's Choice and Educator's Choice in the Youth Division.
In the Adult Division, the Furniture Category had three winners. Third place went to Michael Powell's Bar Stools, second place to the Hall Table by Zachary Peterson and the overall winner was Kelsea McDonald's Buffet.
in the Adult Open Division, there were also three award winners. Third place was taken by an Intarsia Frog by Robert Hammond. Second place went to the Bow Saw by Patrick Meyer. The first place winner as well as the People's Choice and Educator's Choice winner was Bill Arnold's Dulcimer. All the entrants received goodie bags from The Woodworking Shows and the winners received tools from Bosch Tools and Work Sharp and Lee Valley gift cards. Bill Arnold's Dulcimer will be entered in the grand prize judging at the close of the Woodworking Show season in late March.
If you weren't able to attend the Indy show, you missed a beauty but there is always next year. If you're in the Columbus, Ohio area your opportunity comes January 31-February 2 at the Ohio Expo Center on East 17th. All of the shows continue to grow in size and popularity and the Columbus show is no exception. Expect to see tools, supplies, tips and techniques covering nearly every aspect of our craft. When you do attend, please try and make some time for the WOOD Magazine booth where the topic is cabinet making and questions are welcome. Seats are fairly comfortable too. Though I can't promise a display of flawed driving, that ready to install hot tub or that rifle you've had your eye on every weekend, I can promise that you'll come away from our show educated, inspired and equipped for your next woodworking project.
Til then, I'll see you on the road.

The Woodworking Shows opened the 2014 winter season in Baltimore on January 2-5 at the State Fair Grounds in Timonium to one of the best attended venues in recent memory. The aisles were filled to all but overflowing for most of the three day event. Read more

Traveling for WOOD Magazine to the Woodworking shows can be quite an adventure at times. The rain that was ever present in Portland two weeks ago turned out to be the precursor of the snow storm that greeted my arrival in the mile high city last weekend, November 21-24.
Temperatures that never got out of the low teens on Thursday made for a rough transition for someone who wasn't quite ready for this early blast of winter. It may not be Thanksgiving yet but I can almost hear those sleigh bells ring-a-ling-ing.
The show at the Denver Merchandise Mart opened to really big crowds of woodworkers and they eagerly took their places in the various educational seminar areas. In addition to the classes run by our weekly team of instructors, Mark Adams returned for the first time in a few years to teach cabinet making and routers as paid seminars in a separate part of the show floor. In years past, these paid seminars were a mainstay of the show circuit and featured more intensive 3 hour classes in contrast to the free 45 minute classes we currently offer. Those who attended Mark's class felt the additional cost was well worth it. Mark will be present at more shows beginning this winter. Check the Woodworking Shows website for dates and class content.
Woodworking clubs and Red Rocks Community College were on hand to display the work of their members and instructors. Pete Jones, instructor at Red Rock, proudly displayed this beautiful bench. A guitar on display looked ready to play. The hollow vessel from the Front Range Woodturners was very well done.
One of the vendors, Legacy CNC, had a very cool machined stool and lidded container as examples of just a couple of the possibilities their tools and software are capable of making.
The only way to get an unobstructed view of the True Track system was before the show opened. The booth seemed busy every time I went by there.
I was a bit disappointed and yet, at the same time, very excited by the entries at the Project Showcase this last weekend. For all the big crowds of attendees, I expected more than just the few projects that were submitted for judging but the quality of those projects were easily some of the best of the season to date. Only two of our categories were represented. In the Open Category, first place went to Scott Roth's Marquetry Piece. He took home a Boch Tool and a show goody bag for his efforts.
In the Furniture Category, third place ribbons went to Bob Amador for his Heirloom Rocker. Second place was a very unique Lingerie Chest by Rich Gady. First place and a Bosch tool went to Art Brazee for his interpretation of a Krenov Cabinet. In our closest contest yet, the award for People's Choice went to Art Brazee and he also received a Drill Doctor by Work Sharp. The Educator's Choice was the Lingerie Chest by Rich Gady. Rich will go on to the Grand Prize judging at the end of the season and he also will take home a Knife and Tool Sharpening System from Work Sharp as well as subscriptions to WOOD Magazine and Fine Woodworking.
The Woodworking Shows will go on a brief hiatus for the holidays and will ring in the new year in Baltimore at the Maryland State Fairgrounds on January 3-5, 2014. I can't believe it'll be 2014! This is always a very large show so advance registering will be a really good idea. Besides, you'll save a couple of bucks and get a jump start on the lines by doing it.
While the shows may be taking a break, I will be in the Tampa area on December 7 speaking at the St. Petersburg Woodworking Guild. Not only are these a great bunch of like minded woodworkers but Florida in December is nothing to sneeze at either.
Here's hoping that you have a very Happy Thanksgiving and a great holiday season. Enjoy the time with friends and family and make a trip to your shop. It's never too late to make something special for someone special. Let's hear those sleigh bells ring-a-ling!
'Til then, I'll see you on the road.

Just as an old story line says if it's Tuesday it must be Sweden, for me if it's Thursday I must be flying to somewhere. The Woodworking Shows will have at least 16 of those Thursdays this season and, I must admit, they all seem like a blur at times. This last weekend however, November 14-17, was in one of those cities in perfect focus. Portland Oregon has to be a favorite for me because of its mountains, forests, waterways and eclectic downtown.
Even the nearly continual chance of rain, something that gives this area its vibrancy and beauty, is almost invigorating for me. A long Thursday of exploring eventually gives way to Friday, the opening of our show and the fun of seeing excited woodworkers ready to spend the rest of their weekend with us. Not a bad reason to be on the road. Having a nice coffee break with an old friend at the show doesn't hurt either.
The doors were jammed on that Friday and the crowd filled the show floor until just before closing time. That would be our best day as there were less attendees on the following two days though still a good weekend over all for the educators and vendors. Jet Tools and Hammer as well as Lee Valley saw a lot of interest in stationary and hand tools. Bosch had both corporate and retail booths and dozens of others had jigs, templates, fences and clamps on display as well. Plenty to see and purchase from the retailers.
The local woodworking and carving clubs were here too and garnered a lot of interest. The Columbia River Chapter of the American Marquetry Society had a great interpretation of Multnomah Falls (a favorite Thursday stopover) and other pieces from their members.
The Guild of Oregon Woodworkers displayed a pretty cool old classic with a rumble seat to boot and a very unique horizontal pin router.
I'm sure I saw that Rainbow trout earlier in the week and in its past life before it graced the Western Woodcarvers Association booth.
We had a very nice assortment of entries at the Project Showcase this last weekend and a chance to recognize our largest number of entries to date. The winners took home gift cards from Lee Valley, Subscriptions to WOOD Magazine as well as Fine Woodworking, Work Sharp tools and Drill Doctor, and of course, a variety of Bosch Tools, our Showcase sponsor. Chris Dayton took first place with his chair in the youth division, followed closely by Fernando Hernandez's Sofa Table. Chris also won both the People's Choice and Educator's Choice awards.
In the Adult Division, Mike Rohrbach took first with his Cat Scraper beating out the School Bus from Robert Oswald in Models/Toys.
In the Open Category, Dennis Kincaid (Backgammon Board), Theo Hardy (Baritone Guitar) and Wade Sims (Wine Clock) took 1st, 2nd and 3rd respectively.
In Furniture, not only did Richard Babbitt take first place with his Round Foyer Table, edging out Willie Sandry and son Cherry Trundle Bed, but also swept the People's Choice as well as the Editor's Choice awards. He also will be entered into the grand prize contest at the end of this season.
A good weekend for everyone, especially Richard!
Next weekend, November 22-24, we'll be in Denver at the Denver Merchandise Mart. As in the past, this promises to be a very well attended, busy woodworking show. If you get a chance, stop in. I'm sure you'll find something that interests you and a whole lot more. Get your tickets on line to save a couple of bucks and time at the gates when you get there. I'm in the WOOD magazine booth and we're talking about Cabinet Construction. You'll want to pull up a chair. I've got a lot to show you.
I left Portland yesterday in a light mist (what else is new) after a Sunday night dinner downtown. The perfect end to a perfect weekend. I left with a heavy heart and heavy suitcase. Most everything in there was wet. Ah, Portland! Gotta love it!
'til then, I'll see you on the road.

Last weekend, October 25-27, The Woodworking Shows returned to the great state of Texas. The late sale of the show in 2012 kept our new owner from securing venues for the Fall portion of the show circuit last year and we were left, sadly, with nothing to do until January. Hope springs eternal and now we're back with a mix of the things that you've grown accustom to. Read more

Former Olympics freestyle swimming champion Greg Hackett has been released from rehab. Hackett sought assistance to help fight addiction to sleeping pills.
Hackett initially denied his problem, but his manager and his father were persistent as they both showed their concern for his addiction on a drug named Stilnox. This drug is generally used to treat patients suffering from insomnia. Athletes are often prescribed this drug prior to a big event.
In an interview with Nine Network at Los Angeles airport, Hackett explained the issue and his coming out of the situation.
"It just gets to a situation in life where you're not coping too well, and you need to put your hand up and ask for help -- I certainly got to that situation, I feel proud of myself that I had the strength and courage to do that, because I want to have a great and happy life ahead of me ... I want to be a great father and I want to do all those things properly," Hackett said.
His experience seemed to bring a sea change in his thought after his rehabilitation for past five weeks.
"Certainly what I've learnt over the past five weeks has put me in a position to do all those things a lot better."
The former Olympics champion is still considered to be as one of the greatest distance swimmers that the world ever produced. Hackett also served as captain of the Australia swimming squad till 2008. He worked for Channel Nine network and often used to host Wide World Sports. Hackett was also the ambassador for Westpac Bank for 13 years after which he started working as an employee for the company.
Hackett seemed all perfect after his discharge from rehabilitation and hopefully, this living legend will lead a healthy life.

Ray Winstone quits smoking
British actor Ray Winstone has suffered a setback in his attempt to give up smoking after struggling to get to grips with an electronic cigarette. The Departed star has decided to kick his longtime addiction and opted to swap real smokes for a battery-powered device.
However, the actor was dealt a blow when he realised he didn't know how to work his e-cigarette.
Winstone tells Britain's Daily Telegraph newspaper, "I bought one of those false ones and I put the oil in the wrong end. I puffed on it and all the oil went in my mouth. It's like I was not destined to give up (smoking)."
