Thanks to HoppyLuckyGoGo for sharing this one at GRG1313's tasting.
Pours a murky dark brown with a foamy khaki head that settles to an oily film on top of the beer. Small dots of lace form around the glass on the drink down. Smell is of malt, grain, spice, and apple aromas. Taste is much the same with apple pie and spice flavors on the finish. There is a mild amount of spice bitterness on the palate with each sip. This beer has a lower level of carbonation with a slightly crisp mouthfeel. Overall, this is a good beer that has qualities much like apple pie.

A fantastic beer from Funky Buddha, served in an oversized snifter.
Great appearance that to be compliments the taste they are apple pie taste they are aiming for.
Smells sweet with notes of cinnamon and apples
Tastes fantastic like the insides of a great home made apple pie with fresh apples and cinnamon.
Mouthfeel is good bit could be slightly thicker but still great. My only comment is the brewery pours this too cold and to really appreciate this beer you need to let it sit 10-15 minutes to warm slightly. Great beer and one of my favs from the Buddha

Arrives a deep, dark brown with a small, light tan head. Scattered lacing.
Smell is malt, sweet like a milk stout, and some spices.
Taste is rich, malty, spiced apples with cinnamon, a hint of vanilla, I think. Nicely balanced.
Smooth, rich, lightly effervesced. Extremely drinkable, almost like a spiced apple verdion of root beer if that doesn't disgust you. I like it quite a bit.

On tap at the brewery. Served in a snifter.
Appearance - Deep reddish brown. Arrives with a disparate chunky white head. Thick white collar.
Smell - Apple cinnamon all over. Deeper malts come through. Nutty.
Taste - More cinnamon than anything. Less apple. More darker malts. Nutty again. Astringent finish.
Mouthfeel - Pretty dry. Astringent. Not something I could drink a lot of.
Overall - I think I'd rather just drink the base brown ale, but the treatment is interesting at least.

A - appearance is chestnut brown with a nice 1/2 inch head, served in a snifter.
S - the aroma does not do this incredible brew any justice.
T - tastes like my mothers baked apple pie..which is obviously amazing
M - mouthfeel is nice, not too heavy.
O - another great offering from the Funky Buddha. This brew reminds me of home made apple pie, with a delicious yet subtle hint of nutmeg. Awesome.

On tap at Churchkey. Served in a mini snifter. Pours a medium brown color with a thin head. Spotty lacing. The nose has a pretty hefty amount of spice and some underlying apple. Loads of nutmeg and other pumpkin-pie type spices really take this one over the tap. Flavor has some sweetness and a bit of a caramel apple thing, but the spices are way out front. Too much going on; just a total crapshoot. Not a fan.

A: Poured into a glass this brown ale pours a deep caramel with a very thin head. Not to impressive, but solid non the less.
S: the aroma is sweet apples with hints of cinnamon, almost like the aroma of the crust of an apple pie.
T: the flavor follows the nose. Sweet apples with hints of cinnamon and a little nutmeg.
Mf: mouth feel is a little on the thin side for a brown ale.
Overall this beer is a perfect autumn brew.

Draft at Prohibition Taproom in Philadelphia, PA.
Pours a dark golden amber color with tangerine edges and a two finger light beige head. Great retention only slowly fading into a lasting ring. Streaks of soapy lace left behind.
Spicy autumnal aroma with tons of cinnamon, ginger and clove along with sweet apples and light malt. Apple chutney sweetness along with caramel, toffee, cinnamon, apple pie and graham cracker.
Medium body that's bursting with sweet and spicy apple pie flavor. Lots of cinnamon, ginger, clove and nutmeg along with sweet apple pie filling. Sweet malt notes underneath as well with some caramel, toffee and hazelnut lingering into a slightly dry finish. Another great experimental dessert beer from these guys. They really nailed the aroma and flavors but at the same time it still feels like a beer. Excellent!

On draft at Churchkey in D.C.
The beer is orange to auburn in color with a small head that leaves little in the way of lacing. The aroma brings a heavy dose of cinnamon and nutmeg. Apples emerge more in the flavor. Bready and sweet. This beer is dominated by spice. Cinnamon and nutmeg overrun other more subtle flavors. Thin body with low carbonation. Unbalanced. Mediocre.

At the time of this review, this is #7 on the "Top Beers - American Brown Ale" list on beeradvocate.com. Served on draft at Churchkey in DC during an event in a snifter.
Beer is dark brown / almost black and clear at the corners with a thin off white head of small bubbles. Decent retention, no lacing, moderate to low carbonation.
Aroma is strong spice, nutmeg and allspice or something similar.
All nutmeg. it is like biting into a clove or an aromatic spice while eating, my palate is wrecked, oh god no. All spice all the time, this is like distilled chai or something. Wow. Nope, not again.

On tap at Churchkey the other night. It had a caramel brown color to it with a thin white head barely covering the top. Nice looking color to it.
In the aroma I immediately get the cinnamon and apples. There is a little bit of a doughy presence to it as well. It pretty much smells like an uncooked apple pie. It was pretty good, but I couldn't help think how good this would be with some bourbon flavors as I love apple cinnamon infused bourbon.
The taste also really reminds me of raw apple pie ingredients, especially the apple and cinnamon mixture that goes into the pie. A little bit of that doughy flavor is there as well. I like apple pie, so this was pretty appealing overall.
The mouthfeel is thin and a little watery with carbonation being on the lower side. Overall I thought it was a pretty interesting and good beer, but it falls a little short of amazing in my opinion. I can only imagine what little heavier mouthfeel and some bourbon could do for this beer.

On Tap at Hulmeville Inn.
Bonita Applebaum sports a medium brown color with some redness casted throughout. A nice half inch of medium tan foam that sticks around leaving some spray paint type lace. Smell is what is advertised. Apple pie to the max. The toasted malt scent is muted under a heaping of cinnamon and holiday scents. This is a good brown. While the apple and cinnamon dominate in every sense of the word, the base brown ale malts are intact and holding firm. Fruity and semi sweet, not cloying. The body is at about medium with bubbles. I don't know what it is about this beer, but I would want to drink it every X-MAS for some reason or another.

On tap at ChurchKey in DC.
Pours a brown with a medium off-white head. Smell reminds me more of a pumpkin beer than I expected with lots of baking spices and some apple. Flavor follows the nose, but holy cinnamon! At first it's got a nice spicy apple thing going on, but the cinnamon really takes over here and makes it pretty one-dimensional. Mouthfeel is medium-bodied with good carbonation. Overall, this was my least favorite of the Funky Buddha beers at ChurchKey and frankly is the first one of their beers that I think is rather overrated. I'm not the biggest pumpkin beer fan, and this didn't really set itself apart from your average pumpkin beer. To me it's basically a pumpkin beer, but replace the pumpkin with apple and then overload on cinnamon.

First had: on tap at Prohibition Taproom, Philly, PA
Hazy garnet-cider pour, with a small bubbly head; decent retention and a bit of lacing. Excellent aroma, perfect recreation of apple pie, soft apples, blast of bready cinnamon crust, with a touch of vanilla. Taste wasn't nearly as full or inviting as the aroma, unfortunately. It's a lot like the aroma, but a bit thinned down (brown ale = bane of my existence). Sweet, sugary apples, cinnamon and nutmeg, caramel malts. Body was juicy and on the lighter side. I almost want to try this mulled. Overall pretty nice, but not one of the better ones I had from FB. Can't beat the aroma though.

Pours an smber brown color, fluffy and bubbly off-white head. Scent brings wonderful notes of baked apples and cinnamon, solid lightly sweet toasted and biscuity malt profile, light notes of dark dried raisin. Taste follows suit, big baked appels and cinnamon, malt is toasted and biscuity as nose promised, little more sweetness from brown sugar, hint of dark fruit and vanilla. Medium bodied, bubbly. Fantastic beer, so elegant and bold I would have beleived this was a 10% ABV sipper. Another winner for sure.

On tap at the Buddha event @ Prohibition tonight.
A - Pours a garnet brown color with a nice head that leaves some lacing as my glass is drained. You can get a much better representation of the presentation of the beer v. the smaller pours @ Capones. Very nice.
S - Wonderful beer that would be perfect for X-mas season. Nice combination of apple, cinnamon, breadt biscuit, some vanilla, and everything else that is good and that should be in a glass.
T - Follows the nose and again would make a great Christmas beer to go with your dessert. Great combination of flavors, each represented nicely and without being overly sweet or cloying. Really nice.
M - Pretty nice, about what you would want it to be.
O - For some reason, the Last Snow did not taste right tonight. I did not get nearly the coconut and coffee that I got on Sat from the Last Snow. It is almost like I was poured something else. If the Snow tasted Sat like it did tonight, I would say that this is better. But the Snow I drank on Sat was better than the Apple tonight.
I loved this beer and would drink this around the holidays for sure. Thanks Buddha for some great beers this week. Please come back.

Bottled shared at bu11zeye's 10,000th rating tasting. Thanks to ericandersnavy for sharing.
The beer pours a brown color with a tan head. The aroma is awesome, with a ton of cinnamon and apples. The flavor is also great but is more complex. I get a lot of apple and cinnamon, as well as some oak, vanilla and rum notes. There is also some nice alcohol flavor as well as a good bit of sweetness. Medium mouthfeel and medium carbonation. Very nice.

On-tap at Brewvival 2012
Pours a hazy brown-amber with a thin off-white ring. Wow, this certainly smells like apple pie : cinnamon, apples, caramel, and pie crust. Phenomenal. Taste is spot-one, more apples, cinnamon, and caramel. I had no idea what this was, but man I loved it. Smooth mouthfeel, with a medium body and good carbonation. Unique and delicious, sweet without being cloying. These guys are something special.

Had during Brewvival 2012! Poured by Paul himself! Served from tap into a Brewvival sampler imperial pint. Poured red-orange with a minimal tan head. Maintained decent lacing throughout the glass. The aroma was comprised of sweet malt, apple, bread, sugar, and cinnamon. The flavor was of sweet malt, apple pie (only way to describe it), cinnamon, and sugar. It had a medium feel on the palate with medium carbonation. Overall this was a pretty good brew. Apple pie in my beer!? The eff is this!? Okay, I will give it a try... MOTHER OF GOD! This was pretty much my reaction to try this thing for the first time. I was completely blown away at how they were able to pull this off in such a nice and enjoyable manner. All of the flavors one would associate with a dessert was there and really nice. I don't know how Funky Buddha does it, but bravo on another solid offering.

Appearance: Presents with a cloudy auburn color capped by a decent head that leaves some good lacing behind
Smell: Apple pie spices and crust
Taste: Up front comes the crust with the apple pie flavors arriving by mid-palate; nicely combined after the swallow and into the finish
Mouthfeel: Medium body with low to moderate carbonation; somewhat flabby
Overall: Other than the odd mouthfeel (which I have noticed in a few of the other Funky Buddha beers I have tried), this is a very interesting beer and another example of this brewery's unique approach to beermaking

on tap at EBF
Pours a cinnamon brown color with a thin crop of tanned head on top. Some wispy film left behind with some spots of lacing.
Smells like a warm apple pie, seriously. Cinnamon, pie crust, apples and sugar. Some hints of spice and sweetness.
Plenty of apple flavor up front with a smooth sweetness. Lots of spice with cinnamon and nutmeg, which really creates a nice apple pie taste. Biscuit and pie crust tones in the malt with more sugary apple notes towards the finish.
Medium body, decent carbonation, a bit chewy and sticky on the tongue. Not quite as thrilling as some of their other offerings, but another fun beer that I'd love to have again.

This beer much like the other FBL brews at the EBF were great. This beer poured out as a really nice amber color with a good head that stuck around for a while. The smell was packed with apple and some spicy aromas. The taste followed the nose rather closely, there were lots of sweet and tart apple flavors in this brew. The mouthfeel was creamy and dry. Overall it was loaded with flavor and highly enjoyable. Really makes me wish I went to Florida more often.

Poured a light brown with a light brown head. Smell was wonderful, all apple pie. Taste just like a fresh apple pie, crust and all. Nice mouthful, not too sweet at all. Just a home run here. Funky Buddha did a great job with this one.

Pours a light brown unassuming color with a small light brown head. Nose is cinnamon sugar, apples, it's got a ton of these apple pie notes, almost as good as the PB&J beer but not quite as instantly identifiable.
Taste is like liquid pie, lots of those apple pie spices, and somehow flakey crust as well. Mouthfeel is light and crisp. Overall its done a good job at being unique and I love it.

Thanks, Jason! 22oz bottle into Darkness tulip.
A - Pours a medium cinnamon brownish color, white head, thin collar, no lace or cap.
S - Smells like apples, cinnamon, nutmeg, dark fruits. Pretty spot-on close to apple pie, if you ask me. The sweetness and spices are really nice...almost like apple cider.
T - Not quite as good as the nose. Apples, cinnamon, nutmeg, brown sugar. Not as sweet as the nose suggests, and the finish is a little medicinal/harsh to me. Still, very interesting.
M - Light to medium body, good carbonation, creamy finish.
O - A really "cool" beer. The nose was excellent but the taste wasn't quite as outstanding. Still, a very good beer in it's own right and something I would have again, if offered.

Latest Hercules Wimbledon news: Grima and White claim inter-counties medals
12:00pm Wednesday 18th December 2013 in Sport By Tom Pollak
A duo of Hercules Wimbledon runners in action for Surrey in the South of England inter-counties cross-country championships on Saturday came away with team medals.
Claire Grima, returning to the county team after failing to make the grade in 2012, helped the senior women's team take the silver medals.
She was also the fourth scoring member of the squad, finishing 23rd out of 63 runners and covering the 6km course in 24:03 - Grima was also the second veteran over 35 finisher.
Surrey debutant Oscar White helped the county take the bronze in the boys U13 3km race at Shuttleworth Park in Biggleswade.
He was the fourth scoring member of the Surrey team, finishing 25th out of 90 runners in 11 minutes 11 seconds, less than a minute behind the race winner.
Two other Hercules Wimbledon runners racing for their county narrowly failed to make the scoring team.
Matthew Gibbons, called in after originally being selected as a reserve, was Surrey's seventh finisher in the boys U15 4km race. He was 54th out of 82 runners in 13:39, just over a minute behind the race winner.
Cassian Hyde was the seventh member of the men's U17 team, finishing 38th out of 82 runners in the 5km race in 16:39. Surrey's four-to-score team won gold.
Hercules Wimbledon's track and field training sessions take place at Wimbledon Park athletics stadium on Tuesday and Thursday evenings starting at 6.30pm and Sunday mornings at 10.30am. Further details from coaching coordinator Maurice Sharp on 020 8337 8707.

Michael Geist sez, "I've posted a video version of a recent talk on SOPA activism and what it means for the next generation of global copyright agreements such as the Anti-Counterfeiting Trade Agreement and the Trans Pacific Partnership. The talk is about an hour as it also assesses the global strategies employed by the U.S. and copyright lobby groups of shifting away from WIPO toward closed negotiations (like ACTA) and domestic copyright pressure (like the Canada's Bill C-11, which is a combination of DMCA + potentially SOPA)."
Beyond SOPA: ACTA, WIPO, and the Global Copyfight (Thanks, Michael!)
I write books. My latest is a YA science fiction novel called Homeland (it's the sequel to Little Brother). More books: Rapture of the Nerds (a novel, with Charlie Stross); With a Little Help (short stories); and The Great Big Beautiful Tomorrow (novella and nonfic). I speak all over the place and I tweet and tumble, too.

Can we please stop saying that this is simply about copyright? This issue goes deeper than copyright and the discussion needs to reflect that fact more. This legislation is using the issue of copyright as a trojan horse to put a kill switch on the most powerful tool that the world has ever seen for expressing dissent and organizing the oppressed majority against the status quo. It really just is not about some entertainment interests that do or do not get paid for a garbage illegal download of Hollywood's latest ejaculation for simpletons. The elite in this country observed what happened in the Middle East last spring and realized that the potential for that happening in the US existed if the people here were ever to wake the fuck up on a massive level and organize against their oppressors. They are using copyright to create a much greater power than the ability to prosecute pirate bay downloaders. I am just worried when we leave it at copyright and forget that it is really about maintaining control over us at a far greater level. I also hope that the protests against this garbage legislation continue as they try to push this in through the back door ( which, believe me, they will do). If these assholes put a kill-switch on the internet it will be the last thing that is needed to solidify the overlord's positions until they devour every resource on this planet and it becomes uninhabitable.
Whew, sorry I blacked out for a second. Just venting.

"The internet interprets censorship as damage and routes around it."
You might be surprised how deep this goes.
MB44 says:
I agree but the problem with depending upon that logic to save the Internet as a free and open source for all is the the fact that, as it is now, it can be accessed by all who desire to access it with little to no technological know-how. When it comes to using a proxy-server to browse or encryption to shield the information that one sends online, there is only a select group of people that understand how to do it. The key to the web is the ease with which information is accessed. If we lose that ease the the majority will not be able to use the internet as a tool for organization anymore.

…unless the censorship is in the routers.

Newell, a school administrator, held an Apple iPad, a device smaller than a textbook but with the capacity to store a library's worth of information. Then came a presentation of rules — starting with all the "do-nots."
Jacksonville is issuing 1,100 iPads this week and next to students in grades 4-12 at sessions like the one held Tuesday for 11th-graders. Parents, some of whom were seeing the tablet computers for the first time, were excited about what their children will learn with the devices, but some also worried.
Some wonder what will happen if their sons or daughters break or lose one of the $759 iPads. Some wonder how to keep kids from getting into online mischief. And some wonder whether all families can handle the $50 fee for the devices.
"There are always concerns when you're taking on a project of this magnitude," said Thomas Abernathy, who spoke with a reporter after the presentation as his son and daughter headed upstairs to be issued their iPads.
School officials say they're aware of parents' concerns and are planning for them, though they acknowledge they haven't solved every issue. Superintendent Jon Paul Campbell said the school system is working to make sure all students get access to the devices and to help families understand the benefits and risks of the Internet.
"One of the biggest reasons we are doing this is to level the playing field so that whatever your background, you'll have the tools to take advantage of this learning," Campbell said.
Students will use the devices to do Internet research, to make presentations, to do group work and to take tests. Using examples, Campbell said students might use the devices to make a movie instead of doing a book report, or to have a video chat with someone on another continent during history class.
"There are a lot of opportunities that can be there that maybe weren't there before," Campbell said.
Abernathy was among those Tuesday night who questioned whether the $50 usage fee would be too much for some families to pay, especially those with more than one child.
"Public education is supposed to be free. Unfortunately we've arrived at a time where there is some cost associated," Abernathy said. "Somebody has to bear the cost of the device."
The school system is paying most of the nearly $1 million cost of the program with local money from the 1 cent sales tax Campbell said he was aware that some parents might have trouble paying the $50 fee, and said the school system plans to work with families to be sure all students have access to the devices, though he didn't share specifics.
Menzo Parker, another father of two students, said he worries what will happen if one of his children accidentally loses a device. Parker said he wants to buy a school-recommended insurance policy to cover the cost of the replacing or repairing lost, stolen or damaged devices.
"That's a huge concern," Parker said.
He asked school officials at Tuesday's session how much the insurance will cost, and was frustrated when they couldn't provide an answer. A link on the school system's Web site had information about the insurance coverage, provided by a company called GoCare. The company's Web site showed prices of $37 to $61 per device per year, depending on the type of policy.
Lesley Cunningham, mother of a Jacksonville High student, said she worries about students having access to devices that allow them to use the Internet in unsupervised settings.
"It makes me nervous," Cunningham said.
Currently she and her husband keep a family computer in the living room, so they can monitor how the Internet is used in their home. Tuesday they lost that ability because their son's iPad can go everywhere he goes, she said.
School officials pointed out that there are some safeguards in place that should prevent students from accessing inappropriate sites and from downloading popular social networking apps, like Facebook.
Some parents also said they worried about what would happen to students who don't have Internet access at home. They worried too about parents and grandparents who aren't computer literate trying to help their children, and to monitor kids' Internet use.
Campbell said the school system is working to address those concerns. Officials are compiling a list of businesses and public places that have free wireless Internet access, he said. And, he said, hosting classes to teach students' families how to use the Internet would be a good idea.

I wish it were possible to exclude questions from the front page's interesting tab based on tags (the opposite of favorite tags). For example, I don't own an iPhone, a Mac or an Android device, and I will not develop for, buy nor use any of them for a few years at least. So, I don't want questions tagged iphone, mac or android to appear on my "interesting" tab (because they are not interesting to me).
Isn't this the same thing as ignoring a tag?

The Associated Press
BOSTON - It took the Boston Bruins just over two minutes to turn a scoreless tie into a 3-0 lead.
Boston forward Daniel Paille avoids being sandwiched by Philadelphia's Kimmo Timonen, left, and Maxime Talbot during Saturday's game in Boston, won by the Bruins, 3-0.
The Associated Press
Chris Kelly, 23, celebrates his goal with teammates Zdeno Chara, 33, and Dennis Seidenberg as Flyers goalie Ilya Bryzgalov stands in the goal in the first period Saturday in Boston. The Bruins won 3-0.
The Associated Press
The first-period scoring outburst was more than enough offense for the Bruins in a 3-0 shutout over the slumping Philadelphia Flyers on Saturday.
Boston played one of its best defensive games of the season, limiting Philadelphia to 23 shots as Tuukka Rask picked up his 13th career shutout despite not seeing the puck during several long stretches as his teammates controlled play at the other end.
"We took their time and space away a lot of times and didn't give them second chances," said Chris Kelly, whose goal with 6:32 left in the first period put Boston up 2-0.
Tyler Seguin had just given the Bruins a 1-0 lead when he scored on a power play, his third goal in two games.
Kelly followed that with a wrist shot from the slot, then Daniel Paille finished the flurry by beating Ilya Bryzgalov on a breakaway with 5:08 still to go in the first. The Bruins remained in command the rest of the way.
"I think we only had one shot in the first 10 minutes, but I didn't think that we were playing poorly," Kelly said. "The shots aren't always there. We seemed to get rolling after that and I thought we played a pretty consistent game."
Rask stopped the shots that came his way sporadically.
"I think I saw pretty much every puck," Rask said."
The Bruins also managed to hang on to a 3-0 lead, the same cushion they had Tuesday at Washington before the Capitals rallied to win 4-3 in overtime.
There was no rallying for Philadelphia, which lost its third straight exactly one week after reaching .500 for the first time this season.
"After 1-0, we stopped competing," Coach Peter Laviolette said.
The Flyers held a closed-door team meeting after the game. Philadelphia was coming off a 5-4 loss to Pittsburgh on Thursday, going scoreless in the final two periods and blowing a 4-1 lead. The scoring drought reached five periods on Saturday.
"They scored a goal and we never recovered. We never responded to it," Laviolette said. "We were looking for a response from last game and that wasn't the response we were looking for."
Bryzgalov stopped just three of the six shots he faced in the first period, but regained his composure and was the primary reason the game didn't turn into a rout.
The Bruins scored on their first power play when Milan Lucic backhanded a pass across the crease to Seguin, who hit the open net.
Kelly got free in the slot for his 99th career goal, and it took less than a minute for the Bruins to strike again. Shawn Thornton forced a turnover at the blue line and set up Paille's breakaway.
"Our guys stuck to the game plan," Coach Claude Julien said. "We looked more like the team that had those leads in the past. We had a little glitch there for a couple of games. We're hoping to turn the page on that."
NOTES: Rich Peverley had an assist on Boston's second goal, giving him 200 career points. ... Seguin has five goals and three assists in eight career games against Philadelphia. ... The Flyers are 0-9-0 this season when trailing after the first. ... The Bruins have outshot their opponents in all but six of 22 games this season. ... Julien has 244 career wins as coach of the Bruins, one short of tying Milt Schmidt for second in team history.

Former Distance Standout Praught Signs Contract with Nike
Dec. 13, 2012
NORMAL, Ill. - Former Illinois State distance runner Aisha Praught signed her first professional contract last week, as she enters her post-collegiate career running for the Oregon Track Club (OTC) Elite in Eugene, Ore. The deal came after six months of negotiations between Nike and agent Chris Layne of Total Sports U.S.
Praught couldn't have been more excited about inking her first professional deal.
"It was an exciting time," Praught said. "This was six months in the making and something I have dreamt about for a long time. After so many years of hard work, it is an amazing feeling to know that I have some sort of guarantee for the next couple years."
Her career began shortly after ending a senior campaign that included a NCAA Division I Runner-up performance in the mile (4:39.85), as well as a 9:51.30 performance in the 3,000-meter steeplechase at the prestigious Mt. SAC Relays, where she finished as the top-collegiate student-athlete. She was also instrumental in the women's cross country team winning its first Valley title in 2011. The All-American ended her career at Illinois State at the 2012 U.S. Olympic Track & Field Team Trials, finishing 16th in the steeplechase with a time of 9:55.78.
It was the trip to Eugene, Ore., for the Olympic Trials that really opened the door for Praught, as she had a chance to see what the city had to offer training wise and sit down and meet with now-coach Mark Rowland of OTC Elite.
"Life is completely different now," Praught said. "Running in school was very stressful, having to worry about class, tests and projects, but now, my life revolves around running and that's it. Right now I am running twice a day, four-to-five days a week, taking advantage of all the resources available to me. It is like training camp for cross country, but with a lot of time devoted to recovery."
However, Praught had to prove herself over the summer before a deal could be complete. With the guidance of Layne, who represents track stand-outs Nick Symmonds (two-time USA Olympian and four-time USA Outdoor Champion in the 800-meter run) and Carmelita Jeter (2012 Olympic Gold, Silver and Bronze Medalist in the 4X100-meter relay and the 100- and 200-meter dashes), Praught headed to Europe to compete in the Flanders Cup, before heading to Dublin, Ireland, to run the Morton Mile at the 2012 Morton Pre Games.
The Flanders Cup began Saturday, July 14, in Kortrijk, Belgium, with Praught running a 4:18.95 in the 1,500-meter run. The meet continued after a short jog over to Gent, Belgium, on July 18. Here, Praught ran the third-fastest time of her life in the 3,000-meter steeplechase, winning the event with a time of 9:56.18, the first of her professional career. The meet concluded in Ninove, Belgium, with Praught finishing seventh in the 1,500-meter run with a personal-best time of 4:16.06.
Praught's European circuit came to a close for the summer in Dublin, Ireland, as she competed in the 2012 Morton Pre Games, running in the Morton Mile. Known for her miler skills, Praught turned in a lifetime-best performance of 4:35.96, finishing eighth.
"I am literally living the dream," Praught said. "It is like I am still in college, but without the college. All I have to worry about is running, and now, I have the time to sit down and read a book for enjoyment if I want, or hang out with my teammates, it is definitely more relaxing."
Praught is the first Illinois State track & field student-athlete to turn professional, since long jumper JaRod Tobler did so in 2008.
Head track & field coach Elvis Forde knows how hard Praught has worked to get where she is at now.
"This deal shows how hard Praught has worked the last four years," Forde said. "She had aspirations to continue running, and she found herself a place where she can take advantage of it, and I believe she can make it. She made a commitment with us early on to train hard, and I know she will continue that same mentality wherever she is."
Head cross country coach Jeff Bovee agrees that Praught's success will continue at the next level.
"Aisha has the potential to run at the national level and even make a world team," Bovee said. "With the improvements she made over her last year at Illinois State and starting to figure out racing and training tactics, the sky is the limit for her. She is a student of the sport and loves everything about running and that has helped her get to where she today."

Last week the tri-fecta of repairs cursed my home. I must not be living right or something, because two major appliances and my truck all decided to crap the bed within the same seven day stretch. The dishwasher went dead as a hammer in the wee hours one morning. The washing machine followed suit a few days later. What sent me over the edge was my truck. For the sake of time, I'll only share the appliance repair guy incident.
At my insistence that we purchase a home warranty, many of my home repairs require a deductible be paid to a local repair service. Sounds great on paper. The thing is, the warranty company chooses the repair company, leaving the homeowner at the mercy of Butt-Crack Bubba and a handful of Xanax.
Remember the old "Newhart" show the Bob Newhart did years ago? "This is my brother, Darryl. And my other brother, Darryl." Well, the show's long gone, but I believe one of the Daryl's moved south and found work in my area. Either that or I'm being Punked by Ashton Kutcher.
After assessing the appliances, Darryl approached me with the verdict.
"Well, the good news is I can get the parts. The bad news is they're all the way in Big City (like a whopping 20 miles away)," he said.
Yeah, and? What, it's three days by llama? The way he said it, I figured I'd have to wait a week or something, which is not unusual.
"But...I do have to go down there today so I can pick up the parts." He stopped and scratched his head. "Well...I won't be able to get to it until...how late can I come back tonight?"
"Whenever. Just call me and I'll be sure to be here. It's fine," I told him. This was not complicated. At least, not to me. Later that afternoon he called me back.
"Ms. Reese? Uh...I'm at your house (okay...) and I wanted to know if it's okay to fix the appliances."
"Yes! Get out of your truck and come inside. It's fine!" I opened the front door to wave him in. I stuck my head outside and saw no sign of Darryl's truck or his lama. What the heck? About ten minutes later, another phone call.
"Uh, Ms. Reese? I lied to you," I heard.
"Okay...how's that?" I asked Darryl. Now follow along, people. Every bit of this is true as my love for my secret crush (you know who you are).
"Well, I'm in Dogpatch (next town over) at this lady's house. I worked on her dishwasher this morning. I came to her door a little while ago and told her I had the part for her dishwasher and she thought it was weird since I told her I fixed it this morning. So I took the part in the kitchen and thought it was weird that her dishwasher is a touch panel, not a dial like yours is. So, I went to the wrong house thinking it was yours."
Wow. I can see getting lost, but ending up in the wrong town? He was just at my house that morning! He went on.
"I'm going to pay my water bill, 'cuz it's in town here, and then (sigh) I'll head your way." Obviously the commute was killing him. You just can't get a dependable llama these days.
"Fine. Don't worry about it. I'll be here," I told him. Any more than that may have confused him.
He found his way back and worked on both appliances. He turned on the dishwasher and nothing happened. Awesome. I might also mention that because he couldn't figure out with circuit breaker went to the dishwasher, he took a risk I was very uncomfortable with.
"See this wire?" he said. I nodded. "As long as it doesn't touch this over here, I should be okay." Another Xanax down the hatch.
After discovering a loose wire to be the troublemaker all along, he did something to said wire and declared his victory. I asked him about the now unnecessary new part he installed, and he decided to leave it, since he drove all the way to Big City to retrieve it. So, with the dishwasher humming along, he packed up his toys and left. I loaded my dishwasher and restarted the cycle. It worked for all of ten minutes. I called Darryl.
"Hey, Darryl. Dishwasher's dead, dude." Silence.
"It is. Okay, I know what's wrong with it. I'll try to come back tomorrow and fix it." He explained what he needed to do, an all of five minute fix, which he performed the following day.
I googled untraceable poisons before calling in a Xanax refill.

Jam/Jelly of the Month-Huckleberries
What is a Huckleberry besides being Idaho's State fruit?
Huckleberries are small and round-they look alot like blueberries. Huckleberries range in color from bright red, through dark purple, and into the blues. In taste the berries range from tart to sweet, with a flavor similar to that of a blueberry, especially in blue and purple colored berries, and some have noticeably larger seeds.
Huckleberries are almost impossible to domesticate, so if you want them plan on a day trip to pick them in the wild. Mind the bears.
Contrary to popular belief, Allspice is not a blend of cloves, nutmeg and cinnamon, it's the dried unripe berry of the pimento plant. Native to South America and the West Indies, and exclusive to the Western hemisphere, most of the world's allspice comes from Jamaica. Find out more in the TOTM Forum

She's going armed with coupons and sales fliers, and a list of every item she needs, double-checked for the best price at all of her stops. She knows she won't be able to completely avoid long lines, but the experienced back-to-school shopper and mother of two Faith Christian School students said she hopes she can get it all done in one day — and in just a few hours.
"I think everybody expects it to be a little crazy," Abernathy said. "It always is."
It might sound like behavior more familiar to Black Friday and the Christmas shopping season, but Abernathy will actually take advantage of Alabama's back-to-school tax-free weekend. Starting Friday and running through Sunday, retailers in Alabama will waive the 4 percent statewide sales tax on most clothes, books, computer supplies and other school items.
"It's always really busy for all three days," said Kita Graham, a manager at Martin's clothing store on McClellan Boulevard. "We always expect to do a lot of business that weekend."
The Alabama Retail Association pushed for a back-to-school tax-free weekend in 2006 after noticing the trend picking up in other states, said Nancy King Dennis, the association's director of public relations.
"We advocated for it because it saves people money, but we also found that it doesn't really have an effect on state sales tax collection," Dennis said. "People are still buying taxed items along with non-taxed items on those three days, so it's really a win-win."
According to the National Retail Federation, back-to-school shopping is the second biggest boost annually for retail businesses after the Christmas season and is expected to bring in more than $26 billion throughout the country this year. Because the Alabama Retail Association collects data through tax sales, Dennis said it's hard to tell how many people are taking advantage of the tax breaks. But since starting the annual statewide tax-free weekend in 2006, sales tax collected in the month of August has gone up every year except in 2009.
And the amount of local support for the weekend has risen over the years too, Dennis said. As of Wednesday, the association had received confirmation that 289 municipalities and counties would also waive their local sales taxes, including Anniston, Jacksonville, Oxford and Calhoun County.
"The average family with school-aged children is spending $600 on back-to-school shopping," Dennis said. "So if they go this weekend, and in places where local sales taxes are waived, that's saving about $60. That's pretty good sum of money."
Not that it's just families with kids who benefit from the tax break, Dennis said. Anybody can buy clothes or computer equipment. But in a lot of cases, the bulk buyers who use the weekend to their advantage are teachers looking to stock up their own classrooms, said Amber Ray, the vice-principal of Weaver Elementary School.
"Teachers are known to spend a lot of money out of their own pocket for classroom supplies," Ray said. "Kids are always losing so many pencils throughout the year."
Or just simply not having them, she said. Modest tax breaks can put certain items within reach for some families, but a low-income family still won't have the resources available for technology needs, Ray said.
"I always like to have extra flash drives for the students," Ray said. "Something so they can transport their work from the computer lab to the classroom a little easier."
Kim Davis, a special education teacher's aide at Alexandria Elementary School, who also has two sons who attend Pleasant Valley High School, said she plans to spend around $500 this weekend. And a lot of what she's looking at for her students aren't just notebooks and erasers.
"Because I work with special needs students, I always try to think outside the box," Davis said. "I like to get eraser board from Lowe's that they cut in unique patterns. Counting materials that are colorful or unique, all that stuff really helps."
Abernathy said she doesn't plan to spend anywhere near the average $600 this weekend. She hopes she can check everything off her list for around $200, or a total savings of about $20.
"It doesn't sound like a whole lot," Abernathy said. "But every penny counts."

NOTE: This article is written for our Classic Cloud Control Panel. You can access this interface from the New Cloud Control Panel by clicking your username in the upper-right of the control panel and selecting "Classic Control Panel".
This article provides a quick set of step-by-step instructions for managing your DNS records via the Rackspace Cloud Control Panel
The Domain Tab contains 4 sections:
Let's take a closer look at each of these sections and review their contents.
Website Domain Information
This section will allow you to manage your domains nameserver settings, register an unregistered domain (if applicable) and transfer your domain (if applicable).
DNS Management
This section will show you all of your DNS records, add new records, modify existing records and delete records.
Add New Record
Modify Existing Record
Scroll down to the DNS Management portion of the Domain Tab
This area will provide you with all of the DNS entries for your currently-viewed domain within Cloud Sites
Click on the domain name next to the record Type you would like to modify
Enter in the new Value for the DNS entry
This value could be entered as an IP address for an A record change, or a FQDN for a CNAME record change.
MX (Mail Exchanger) Management
The Rackspace Cloud's network currently has two mail exchangers (MX hosts) to provide you with a highly available mail solution. If you choose to run your own DNS servers or host your DNS elsewhere, our current MX record setup is as follows: (bind format)
Please check back often as we will add more MX hosts as our system continues to grow.
For the best Rackspace Cloud mail experience we recommend keeping your MX hosts up to date. Of course, if you host your DNS with The Rackspace Cloud, you will not need to make any changes and all of the MX hosts will be updated automatically.
SPF (Sender Policy Framework) Records
A SPF record is a DNS TXT record and is added to our DNS zone in the same manner that A records and MX records are added.
The SPF record (remember the record is associated with the domain) specifies which mail server(s) the domain uses to send mail.
It does require the server receiving your mail to check the SPF record to ensure it complies with the domain records but the majority of public mail servers (such as your ISPs mail servers, google mail and so on) will do so.
Having said that, we do not guarantee every ISP complies with the SPF policy or, even if they do, that they do so correctly.
If the receiving server complies with the SPF policy correctly, and the sent email does not conform to your domain records (i.e. comes from an unknown server), it will be marked as fake and either deleted or marked as spam.
One thing to note is that the SPF record allows mail to be quickly assessed by compliant recipients as the checks are completed from information in the header of the email. That is, before the body of the message is loaded. This saves a great deal of time and resources if the mail is a forgery.
In this section, you will be presented with two options:
Our suggestion would be, if you are not familiar with SPF records and are not comfortable configuring your own, then opt to use The Rackspace Cloud's default SPF records.
If you would like to use your own SPF record you can add it to your domain in a record of type "TXT" in the DNS Management section.

Evans becomes the third Hofstra Women's Basketball player to have her number retired following Liz Irwin (1978-1982) and Dia LaBella (1978-82), who had their numbers retired in March, 2009. Evans, a two-time (2010-12) Associated Press All-American, becomes the 26th Hofstra student-athlete to have her jersey number retired. Evans, a native of West Chester, PA, is Hofstra's all-time career record holder in points, with 2,082 following her 19 points against UNCW Sunday, and rebounds, with 1,314 after 19 boards on Sunday. She is now also tied for third, with teammate Candace Bond, in career games played with 124. Evans, a three-time All-CAA selection including first team picks as a sophomore and junior, broke the CAA's all-time career rebounding mark Sunday, pulling down 19 caroms to pass James Madison's Meredith Alexis (2004-07), who recorded 1,313 in her career. Evans is currently seventh on the CAA's all-time scoring chart. She also ranks fifth in career field goals made (774) and sixth in free throws made in a career with 516. Heading into the Pride's regular season finale on Wednesday at Northeastern, Evans is also one of just three active players, along with Baylor's Brittney Griner and Howard's Saadia Doyle, who have amassed 2,000 points and 1,000 rebounds in their career. She also has the most career double-doubles among active Division I women's players, according to STATS, LLC.

knowledge have been matched
by integrity and talent. Your perception
of the ideals of higher education
